Official Raw Thread (12-29-08): The Last Raw of 2008
 

So we will have the Fatal Fourway to see who gets to job to Cena at the Rumble.

HBK vs. JBL vs. Jericho vs. Orton

and a Divas Battle Royal to determine who faces the Glamazon at the Rumble.

Melina vs. Mickie vs. Kelly vs. Candice vs. Jillian vs. Katie Lea

I see JBL winning thanks to HBK and I'm going with Melina in the battle royal. I wish I could have my computer in the living room for this, but I have to get a new router.

Yeah JBL winning via a helping hand from HBK is my guess too. Looking forward to the match though. :yes:

Kinda odd for that match to have 3 and a half heels, but it sort of adds to it seeing as to how the winner will be facing the extremely babyface Cena. It could be anybody's ball game, really.

Also...does winning this match automatically mean that you WON'T be in the Royal Rumble match?

I have Jericho and Orton as my top two picks for winning the Rumble right now. If one of them wins this match, that would start making what looks like the Road to WM 25 to me a lot clearer.

They will probably find some way around it. Like Angle stealing that Italian dude's spot in 2005.

Santino wasn't around in 2005. :roll:

:shifty:

I dunno. JBL winning via a helping hand from HBK just seems TOO obvious - I smell a swerve somewhere.

Anyway, I hope that the person who wins the Rumble actually gets his title shot at Wrestlemania as opposed to demanding the shot at No Way Out like last year's winner.

Oh, and Mickie, Melina and Katie Lea = :drool:fest

Maybe HBK will "accidentally" win the match for himself. A furious JBL will then cost Michaels the match at the Rumble. That way, it keeps Michaels out of a Rumble (so not winning won't hurt his ego) and away from the Wrestlemania title picture (since he wants no part of the title anyway).

Yeah no kidding.

Did you know: The Royal Rumble winner has not main-evented the last three Wrestlemanias.

Either that, or we have a revamp of Ted Dibease. Have Michaels actually beat Cena at the Rumble, but then have JBL demand that Michaels give him the title, just like that Slammy award.

I look forward to the Fatal 4 way

:y: This is waaaay better than how I think it will actually go down.

ABT should get a job with creative.

Freddie Prinze just had a better resume than me, I guess.

Resume or CV??? :cool:

Actually interested in the four way.

That's saying a lot.

Hahaha....

On an only slightly related note to tonight's Raw, I wonder if they're going to have any more of those DX merch promos. Furthermore, I wonder if the storyline with JBL actually coerced any marks into buying more DX merchandise to help out the financially unfit Shawn Michaels. Moreover, I wonder if the WWE thought about that when they decided to run the promos and the storyline at the same time.

I don't think the 4-way is going to reach any dizzy heights (performance-wise) - I hope I'm wrong - but I'm really interested in the outcome.

I hope Cena does commentary for it. The champ joining the announce team during a #1 contender clusterfuck match is always gold. Even with Cena!

JBL IS POOPY

Clark is reporting something big between JBL and HBM is gonna go down in the main event tonight. But take that for what it's worth.

Diva battle royal. Probably gonna go to no contest or something when Kane comes out to visit Kelly.

Could only be one thing...

JBL NIPPLE SLIP!

We really need to co-ordinate an invasion.

I didn't hear what was going on during Raw last week because I was at work, but what did The Miz and Morrison say to Kelly Kelly about the Kane incident?

Well, all I have to say is "WHAT'S UP BITCHES!?!?!?!??!"
After today they can show me Big Daddy V making his return eating half the roster, and I'd watch.

Nah, they are going to show HBK and JBL walking out of the shower together.

Imagine JBL landing a clothesline from hell at the same time HBK lands a sweet chin music. Is that even possible?

This will be the first Raw in like a month that I will watch.

JBL will be singing "I'm Walking On Sunshine" while HBK will be singing "Hurt."

One in front, one in back. JBL hits the clothesline in the back, which pushes their face into Michaels' boot.

But seriously, they are probably going to have HBK "quit" on JBL already.

God damn it, I don't have enough beer for Raw tonight.

That would be EPIC.

Poor planning :nono:

So it won't be a good watch.
