Post by EoE: Well There's Your Problem on Jul 30, 2012 0:12:20 GMT -5
It's that time of the week once again. Tonight, the 1001st episode of RAW comes to you live from Cincinnati, and with RAW 1000 behind us and SummerSlam just 3 weeks away, WWE is still reeling from several of last week's events.
The big talking point of last week... the appearance of Hand Young-Henry the sudden attack by WWE Champion CM Punk on possible future challenger The Rock as he was about to deliver The People's Elbow to the Big Show. Many feel that Punk has been overshadowed during his 8 month reign as WWE Champion, so could it be possible that Punk feels that way himself and used the opportunity to take the spotlight? Expect Punk to drop a pipebomb on the matter tonight.
As a result of Big Show's interference, John Cena became the first man to not win the title in his Money In The Bank cash-in match. That said, the circumstances will probably end up in him getting a new shot down the line. Expect some developments on the WWE Championship No. 1 Contender front.
RAW has a new General Manager in the diminutive disturbed diva AJ, who gave up a marriage to Daniel Bryan to take the position. How will she assert her new-found authority over RAW tonight? And will Bryan continue his war of words with Charlie Sheen?
Alberto Del Rio won yet another shot at Sheamus's World Heavyweight Championship in a Fatal 4-Way match on SmackDown, but no date was set for the match. Could it happen tonight? Will jilted challengers like Kane and Rey Mysterio figure into the equation?
The rivalry between Chris Jericho and SD MITB holder Dolph Ziggler is starting to really escalate and as a result, fans are starting to side with the veteran Jericho once again. What else will happen between these two?
Midcard titles... New Intercontinental Champion The Miz will be looking to keep his momentum going... United States Champion Santino Marella will be looking to fend off a few new challengers... Tag Team Champions Kofi Kingston and R-Truth will be looking to just get a match on the show.
Divas title...
All that, and Heath Slater looks forward to life after the legends feud, tonight on RAW! Don't forget, it's always 3 hours now!

Will HBK climb into the ring on a tiny ladder and steal the spotlight?

I'm actually looking forward to this show tonight. Really curious to see how they're going to be doing three-hours Raws without some kind of gimmick attached. If it's good - if they actually use the extra time for something constructive - then that bodes well for the future. If it's more Tout and Charlie Sheen, then may God have mercy on us all...

Sadly, I'll put money on Punk's "explanation" being "YOU PEOPLE WANNA KNOW WHY? I DON'T OWE YOU PEOPLE A DAMN THING, AND I DON'T HAVE TO EXPLAIN MYSELF TO YOU, AND THE CINCINATTI REDS SUCK THAT'S WHY OCHOCINCO LEFT PLUS YOUR FEMALE POPULATION IS UGLY CHEER JOHN CENA"

I'm looking forward to Randy Orton. I am also interested in CM Punk but I imagine his segment will be mostly about AJ. The show will be mostly about AJ. I go back and forth on if I want to watch it live or DVR, with how much I dislike so much of what they're doing right now, but I know I'd miss talking and writing with people during the show too much to let go of that yet. But I really hate Raw lately, ever since WWE became, well,  |

Darn, first regular three hour show and I'm going to miss it due to new work hours. I guess I'll know how it ends up if I see the forum's exploded while I'm gone.  |

One thing I wondered in the intro was why Clarissa dressed like a hooker...

What annoys me most about the whole thing, isn't that Punk attacked Rock...far from it. Rather that it's pointless attacking Rock because he won't show up the week after anyway. It would have been better if Punk fed Cena to Show because at least Cena can react properly to it.

Anyone know what kind of crowd Cincinnati usually is? Smark or mark? It'll be interesting to see if they go along with the Punk heel turn or still cheer him because he's the "cool heel".
