Monday Night Raw 3/14/11 - Snook and Cranny

[Bang Bang Bart]

We're plugging along the road to WrestleMania, and the longest running weekly episodic Monday Night Raw thread in 'Crap history is about to be invaded by the Shore. No, not the crappy TNA stable, but rather, Jersey Shore "star" Nicole "Snookie" Polizzi, who will appear on Raw tonight. What will go down? Will Zack Ryder meet up with her?

Sheamus, plagued by a long losing streak, has vowed to quit WWE if he fails to defeat Daniel Bryan Danielson for the U.S. Title? Will we see the last of the Lobsterheaded Fella tonight?

Last week, The Miz once again gained the upper hand on John Cena by ambushing him and delivering the "Awesome Elbow". With Cena vowing that the B.S. is over, can he get one back against Miz heading into their WWE Title match at 'Mania?

Randy Orton continued to lay waste to the "New" Nexus by punting David Otunga back to Jennifer Hudson last week. Will his warpath against CM Punk's group continue?

Yes, it's true. Stone Cold Steve Austin will be the guest referee for Michael Cole vs. Jerry "The King" Lawler at 'WM27. With a huge blow to his ego last week courtesy of Stone Cold, how will Cole get back at the King?

Oh, and Vickie Guerrero can win a job on Raw, if she can defeat Tough Enough trainer Trish Stratus in a match. Will we see something go down?

All that and the pre-requisite fun, tonight on Monday Night Raw.

Thanks to Snooki, this may be the first time in a while I skip a good portion of Raw. I don't care if it's instant train wreck TV, I can't stand her or Jersey Shore.

[Beartato]

I'm going to miss this RAW. Not too disappointed for some reason...

[CMWaters]

I have no opinion on Snooki either way, seeing as I have never watched Jersey Shore, so that's not a detractment from Raw anyway.

Even if it was, I have to watch if just to keep the 2011 Wins and Losses up to date.

[CJ]

I can just imagine the earth shattering confrontation between Snooki and Vickie Guerrero

[Back to being Cenanuff]

I'm sure the segment she appears in will suck. The rest of Raw? Don't know, but the E has learned what to do with talentless guest hosts. Put them in a pre-recorded segment and parade them out once live.

I want Ryder to get Snooki to say "WOO WOO WOO"

I'm going to watch Raw, but you better believe I will change the channel the moment she comes on-screen.

I'm excited to see Snooki, i think it will be pretty fun

This. I'm excited for RAW anyway, as I have been for months now. After lacking so much interest for over a year, I'm really getting back into it compared to only watching out of habit.

Going to WrestleMania ups my excitement a lot too.

[Snaptastic]

Awesome Elbow for Snooki.....

[Monkey Tennis?]

Does anyone know if Rock will show up live tonight or be in a taped segment?

[keezy]

I see this happening tonight.

Mason Ryan vs Randy Orton - Mason Ryan wins via some kind of Punk trickery and joins Punk at Wrestlemania, so no punt.

Trish vs Vickie - I expect Vickie to be taken out quickly by a swift Chick Kick, but Dolph or Laycool may interfere and could spark a wrestlemania match.

R-Truth will introduce us to NXT winner Johnny Curtis and one of them will face either Justin Gabriel or Heath Slater in a singles match.

Sheamus v Brian will end in some kind of countout or draw, don't see the title changing hands, nor do I see Sheamus moving to Smackdown any time untill the draft.

I barely know anything about Snooki so it'll be just the same as when Bob Barker and Pee Wee Herman hosted, in otherwords I DON'T CARE.

Oh and John Morrison might jump off something, yay.

[Marvelously Mediocre]

I barely understand what Jersey Shore is and it's not that popular over here anyway so I don't know what to expect from this host. I just know that I hate the guest host concept and want it to go away for good.

I want to see another Awesome Elbow this week because last week it looked...well....Awesome.

[darthobiwan]

Im going to raw tonight, so I'll see how it is with snooki and such.

Anybody expecting someone to act like they're on something in the ring tonight?

Me too. I think the whole Raw will be fun. Nothing too serious this episode, with a lot of randomness and laughs.

No, but I am half expecting some sort of Jeff Hardy reference from CM Punk.

Hoping he breaks out the face paint again.

[Mayonnaise]

I am guessing we'll get the end of the DBD US Title reign (boo, mainly since I don't see them doing squat with DBD after) and Vickie winning and becoming the Voice of the RAW GM (Yea!). Not much exciting, IMO.


Also, Snooki lost her voice so tonight could be interesting.
