    -Randy Orton vs. Kane

    ECW will be taped with RAW so thats when the Swagger V Hardy match will happen i'd say, would be pretty strange to have it on Raw?

    They probably want to give Swagger more exposure and Matt will get more of a reaction than most midcard guys bar Santino

    Hardy vs Swagger was the ECW main event

    ECW Spoiler:
    Jack Swagger won the ECW title

    Rey Knox is getting old now. Knox follows Rey like a bad smell. A predictable bad smell.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,588 ✭✭✭JP Liz


    WTF Jericho fired :eek:

    Well it looks like its true SCSA is getting inducted to the HOF 2009

    Legacy looking better now. Manu despite appearing to be a pretty good worker just didnt fit with the group. I presssume they are going to tag up Snuka and Manu and let them have a mini feud with Priceless. I think they could make a good team.

    Yeah and apparently they're going to add
    D.H. Smith to Legacy, dunno how that'll go down though

    imo the show was only ok. was the three count on Kane a botch? couldn't really tell

    cena/hbk was class. not their absolute best but up there. it's been said before but michaels is acting his a$$ off with this angle. it's really got me interested, to the point where i'm really looking forward to when jbl gets his head kicked in

    the legacy didnt really get much heat i thought during the beatdown. orton's getting way too many cheers and people don't sympathise with the one's getting beaten.

    i was watching it and genuinely a little concerned that they might manage to screw the angle up. i hope not though because the potential's there

    The ref didn't swing around like they normally would so that he was looking at both Kane's shoulders. That seems to indicate it being planned. Maybe Kane will still be after Orton or something after it.

    I'm not sure the beatdown was meant to generate heat. Two heels getting beat up on is never going to generate it. I think it was more an announcement that the stable had finally arrived on the scene proper.

    DiBiase's easy forgiving of getting booted in the head raised my eyebrow though.

    michaels cena was a great match, two guys on top of their game, great win for michaels. after beating jericho, orton and cena in a few weeks, shouldn't he be number one contender???

    when the limo pulled up i was hoping shawn would be the driver and open jbls door but alas :(

    I actually watched Raw this week. There was some stuff I didn't quite understand but I enjoyed the main event.

    Something I'm wondering about, is it possible Jericho's 'firing' is a way to get him over on Smackdown and for SuperHunter to return to Raw?

    Jericho v edge would be awsome

    **edit**

    Prediction:
    Vinces return is going to tie into stone colds induction to the HOF. :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,328 ✭✭✭✭citytillidie


    And Vince to rehire the Superstar of the year

    Vince v Stephanie at Mania??? - Y2J fighting in Vince's corner. Who would Steph pick? Of course the winner would get total control of Raw!

    Could see that happening imo. Lets hope she picks HHH so he stays clear of the WM main event or title match.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,492 ✭✭✭EdK


    Who better for Steph to pick against Vince than Stone Cold Steve Austin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,734 ✭✭✭ec18


    Something I was thinking earlier wouldn't it be really interesting if they turned michaels heel through this angle and had him "aligned" with jbl?

    exactly.....wwe need proper talent and class technicians, and jericho satisfies all the criteria....if i had it my way id have the belt on him for the next year and micheals challenging at every ppv!!!

    No ****. Considering Vince is coming back it's probably just a one week angle to give Vince an example of Steph's incompetence. I doubt they're turning Jericho face because he's one of the few free heels for Austin


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 780 ✭✭✭jossnjuice


    once its not another case of goin off with fozzy for two years...!


  • Subscribers Posts: 2,163 ✭✭✭Brolly


    You should have put this in this weeks Raw thread - its a spoiler and quite a few people won't see Raw until Thursday night!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 780 ✭✭✭jossnjuice


    sh1t peeps caught it on monday...sorry if i ruined it and if the mod could move it i would be greatley appreciative!

    Is Stone Cold coming back??

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 144 ✭✭Yusuf Mirza


    Stone Cold is unable to wrestle coz of his kneck. Remember he broke his knwck. when he went back to wrestle it started to deform. so he had to quit. Man the last time he was on Raw he was all skinny :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,734 ✭✭✭ec18


    and then turn on him at the rumble?

    or at the rumble hbk costs cena the title


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,478 ✭✭✭Bubs101


    Is Stone Cold coming back??

    Stone Cold's being inducted into the hall of fame this year. Wrestlemania is in his home state. He'll definitely make an appearance but Meltzer did raise some doubts as to whether he'd be wrestling again though. As a betting man though I'd say he would, his matches were always limited durinh his peak

    You should have used spoilers on that thread, even the thread title was a spoiler.

    Please read the forum charter carefully regarding spoilers and be more careful in future.

    Wasn't being a back-seat mod - I hadn't seen Raw and I just replied so he/she could change the title and mark it as a spoiler thread.

    I understand that, but it tends to derail threads when users point out that kind of thing in thread, if you just report posts it ends up with the same result as we can edit the thread titles/merge threads/add spoilers and all that kinda stuff if needed, and the thread doesn't go off topic, much easier for everyone involved. If you wanna discuss this with me further feel free to drop me a pm, I don't want this thread going off topic any further.

    ON TOPIC: Am liking the way Legacy is turning out, wasn't a big fan of Manu being a member of the group, doesn't fit in with Orton, Rhodes and DiBiase at all imo and would be far better suited in a tag-team with Snuka I reckon

    Curious to see what will happen when Vince returns, even if he did appear to give himself more video promos for his return than even Cena got when he was coming back from injury


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,919 ✭✭✭✭callaway92


    I thought this would be the place to put the new name for Low - Ki

    It is "Kawal"
    - Mike Johnson is reporting that Low-Ki aka Senshi will be known as "Kawal" in the WWE.

    Vinces return could open up so many possibilities for anything happening on raw at the moment.
    Id say we will know the whole direction come the end of raw on monday
