Raw rolls into jolly old England this week as the WWE Superstars continue on their two week tour of Europe. With a new Intercontinental Champion and less than a week until Backlash, Raw’s London bash is sure to be a knockout.
WWE Champion John Cena will face his WrestleMania 23 opponent and former tag team partner, Shawn Michaels, in a WrestleMania Rematch. These two talented Superstars have not squared off in the ring since Detroit, and their unresolved issues will certainly make this a memorable match. Will Cena be able to escape without HBK’s shoe print on his face?
Santino Marella made history in Milan when he became the first WWE fan to claim the Intercontinental Championship. Mr. McMahon was furious with ECW World Champion Bobby Lashley for aiding Marella in his No Holds Barred Match against Umaga. How will The Chairman respond? What will become of this new Intercontinental Champion?
The Great Khali will be in action when Raw rolls into London as well. Last week, a video aired showing just how dominant the Punjabi giant has been in WWE; who will be the unlucky one to match up with Khali in London? (Watch a video of The Great Khali in action)
Also last week, Torrie Wilson won a Diva fashion show and was immediately attacked by Women’s Champion Melina, but Mickie James came to her friend’s aid and dropped the champion to spark a brawl. A match between Mickie and Melina was announced for Backlash later in the night; will the two Divas be at each other’s throats again on Raw just six days before they meet up at the pay-per-view in Atlanta?
Find out all this and more on Raw, Monday night at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

Now see, if WWE were smart, they'd debut Harry Smith here, and at least have him take Kahli to a stalemate.
Imagine the reaction......

He would need to come out to the Bulldogs theme and get some sort of Maria segment for half the crowd to know who he was i think.

If they were smart they'd debut Harry Smith in Calgary. And that's probably what is going to happen. I'm not sure any of the Brits will debut this week, and Harry is the least "Brit" of the bunch. Paul Burchill showing up on ECW would be awesome though.

Has anyone here actually seen Harry Smith? He's horrible. Actually he's Horrible with a capital H. He's not that good of a wrestler (neither was his father for that matter) and he's negative 40-something on the charisma scale. And to complete the trifecta, he also has a slim build. To summarize... - He doesn't have the workrate
- He doesn't have the charisma
- He doesn't have the look
Daniel Rodimer, or Rodman as he's now being called, is a much better prospect than Harry Smith. He's almost as bad in the ring as Harry, but he has tons of charisma and the look of a star.

Shane kicks things off for the second week in a row. Or maybe it was two weeks ago.
