So it's the return of the Raw Recap Show by M-A-G...and, uh, yeah....

Live from Houston, TX (and Laredo if you count this recap). Opening video shows the drama behind last week's Shelton/HHH encounter. DRAMA!!!

HHH opens up the festivities. Sign in the crowd: It's all about the Benjamins. Testify!!! He refers to Benjamin as "this kid" in lieu of making him seem important. He immediately labels the win as a fluke and it won't happen again. Kind of like when he destroyed Jeff Hardy back in 2001 to get back the Intercontinental Title. It's not so much a problem saying it but actually going through with it and proving it to be a fluke kind of puts that impression in the fans eyes. But it's all about Backlash, says HHH! Chris Benoit is the target now and damned if HHH isn't going to win says he. He puts over the danger of the triple threat match before getting interrupted by Shelton Benjamin. I miss the old Team Lenny and Carl music. He just wants to introduce himself. See? WWE can be friendly. Shelton can't live with the possibility of a fluke on his conscience and so he challenges HHH again. JR and King are shocked as if he plans on invading China single-handedly. HHH jobberizes Shelton via mic and denies the request. He explains himself saying Shelton could build a career on what he did last week. Shelton sort of understands and pisses off HHH enough to get HHH to agree to the match. This is kind of an iffy match. HHH is challenging for the belt and shouldn't be viewed as an inept idiot but Benjamin needs the overness. If they can deliver something just as good as last week, it'll be OK.
