Official Raw Thread is SAVED (9-15-08): Punk...Jericho...Steel...CAGE!

Yes, I have come back to save this once happening, enjoyable weekly thread. In the last couple of weeks it has degenerated into a mass of boredom, filled with uninteresting posts. Now the savior of the Raw thread has come back to save the weekly Raw thread! THANK YOU!

Preview:Everybody, let's rock!
September 15, 2008

“Jailhouse Rock.” The song is one of Elvis’ greatest and most enduring hits. The chart-topper also proves a fitting theme when Raw rolls into Presley’s adopted hometown on tonight.

After all, current World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho and his rival CM Punk will climb within the prison-like confines of a 15-foot high, steel cage for what promises to be one rockin’ title match to kick off Raw tonight.

After being unable to compete in the World Heavyweight Championship Scramble Match at Unforgiven, thanks to an attack by Randy Orton and his band of multi-generational Superstars, the Straightedge Superstar will undoubtedly have redemption on his mind. For his part, Jericho will be defending a title that he feels he earned justly and rightly deserves. One week after Unforgiven, neither man will be 100 percent, but that won’t keep them from giving every last ounce of themselves to be called World Heavyweight Champion.

Will Punk be able to make his opponent “Surrender”? Or will Jericho send Punk packing to the “Heartbreak Hotel”?

In other Raw action, Kane is eager to battle his latest “target,” Rey Mysterio in the shadow of Graceland. During their confrontation last week, the Big Red Monster supposedly dropped a clue to his strange actions as of late when he pulled out his old mask, slipped it on and laughed demonically.

What more can Rey, and the WWE Universe, expect to learn about Kane’s bizarre behavior Monday night? “Suspicious Minds” want to know! Who will prevail in their one-on-one encounter?

And what are we to make of the cast of multi-generational Superstars, World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase and Manu, the son of Afa from the Wild Samoans? While this group certainly has things “All Shook Up,” the WWE Universe wants to know what their plans are for Raw, and who will be next to feel their wrath?

To find out the answers to these questions and more, make sure to tune in to Monday Night Raw at 9/8 CT only on USA Network.

I think we'll see Honky Tonk Man tonight.

I have a weird feeling that they're going to hotshot it tonight.

Though I'm actually interested in RAW for the first time in a long time. Punk/Jericho and Haas will easily make me tune in. :y:

I'm kinda psyched to see Kane put his mask back on tonight.

Hm, he didn't put it on last week, did he? Or does 'slipped it on' mean something different in America?

Edit:

Despite this Kane story being bizarre and confusing as usual, I must agree. This angle is part of the reason I've been watching each week for the last month or so.

From what I remember he just had it on his hand.

No, the terminology is the same.

In fact, here's the video:

The steel cage match will open this week's edition of Raw.

Yeah. Something fucked up is going down.

That, and they're trying to get the MNF crowd. But matches like these in the beginning of the show never just end there. Maybe another "it doesn't count" title change on a technicality, which would fit the Jericho's current character.

It'll probably lead to Punk/Batista vs. Bitchtits/Boricho

I hope they get 25 min for the cage match.

We'll give you 7!

Time for Punk to job.

There's no way this actually goes off first. There HAS to be a catch of some kind.

Kicking it off with the Cage?

Calling it now- C.H. Punk will be in there.

Well fuck me sideways. The cage match is first on the dockett.

This should be a quick night.

And evening, fellas.

No nonsense Punk tonight

Wow. They gotta be plannin for something else if this is first tonight theres no way have Kane/Mysterio as Main Event

Punk's first cage match in the WWE.

I'm getting more American each day. Not only am I watching RAW live, but on Ten HD we've got Monday Night Football on live, too.

Well since it's not C.H. Punk, it'll be J.O.B. Punk.

I like Jericho's kickpads.

That's about it.

Jericho likes going in the backdoor. :naughty:

You don't like his dancer's legs?

Punk needs to do a promo tonight

There is no good reason for this to be first. This is a main event, damnit.

Wow the crowd is dead.

Punk needs to bust out the superplex with both guys on top of the cage

Tee hee. Patented hiney.

yay, another sit on our hands crowd, good job south

WTF, Philly do something right and put up 6 against the Cowgirls

Punk is woozy from the punt to the head.

Spunk vs Nailz Jericho... yawn.

Who have the crowd come to see? Haas? Fuck me, they're dead for a PPV level match.
