Jericho being escorted out of RAW

[Impact Zone's #1 DUMMY...YEAH]

Where was Big Show when Jericho was being shown the door after DX cheated him out of his title rematch on RAW? Wouldn't you think he'd be there, defending his teammate?

And considering that at Bragging Rights, Big Show cheated team RAW out of the match by slamming Kofi down off the ring ropes, he too should have been shown the door, even though it would have taken more than the 8 superstars who got Jericho out to do so.

I thought that was strange too.

Jerishow has run it's course so I guess it just made for a more satisfying pay off to have Jericho escorted off RAW and getting his come uppance.

Considering they'd lost both chances at holding onto the tag titles, why would Big Show care? I thought it was pretty clear that he never thought of Jericho as anything more than a business partner during the time they were teaming up.

Plus, even if he did save him, that'd just result in Jericho getting to hang around an extra hour or two before never coming back anyway.

I'm more worried about him being out in the cold in this trunks with no money, at least when Heenan got thrown out he was given his bag.

Although it's December, it was Corpus Christi. Probably about 70 degrees, even at 9 PM.

I thought it was funny that he was being "thrown off RAW" by guys who themselves aren't on the RAW roster.

Didn't understand myself why Finlay wanted Jericho off Raw. So he could go to Smackdown, where Finlay works. Doesn't that defeat the purpose?

See, that would have made more sense had they actually dragged him out of the door and not just thrown him out...


...and then on Smackdown, we see them all dragging him INTO the arena.

Yeah, the only thing I didn't get is why it wasn't RAW guys. I figured Show wouldn't help as they would just say he was fed up with Jericho's bossing him around.

I find it funnier that Hornswoggle's dad (Finlay) got to be an honorary member of DX, while the little guy himself gets a cease-and-desist order and a pedigree.

See that makes sense in the real world.
But this is the WWE universe. You know where the writers can be as lazy and as incomptent as possible as long they've never seen an actual wrestling match before being hired. Oh and don't compliment Johnny Ace about his matches in japan.

It wasn't RAW guy because they were "honorary DX members". i.e. they weren't going to be guys on the RAW roster because that might lead to some confusion in the near future. Plus, most of the Raw faces were in use. Yeah, it was a three hour show, but it was an award show. SD/ECW guys were worked in where they could be (six man, etc.) since they all had to be there for the Slammys (Bringing in only the Slammy winners would be an internet giveaway), but in the end it was still a Raw show with Raw angles-matches-skits to be covered.

Show helping only would've really made sense if they were planning to turn him face which I doubt is in the immediate cards. Raw needs heel upper-carders far more than faces (see: SHEAMUS). Sure, in a perfect world writers could work around this but it's WWE writers and a WWE audience who's geared enough that it would've been confusing to them and they likely would've cheered Show too much for something fairly meaningless. (It's not like Show really needs to test the audience for a possible face run). As for not being seen, it was a classic case of "out of sight, out of mind". Sure, some might wonder like here, but not many average fans. They were simply enjoying watching the loudmouth get tossed.

Bottomline, it made perfect sense the way it went down for WWE. Jericho ran his mouth off for months, annoyed pretty much everyone not only from Raw but the other shows, had a title so he was smug and then showed some ass on his way back to SD.

I was hoping Jericho would pretend to try and get back in, only to have the door open accidently, and then he closes it awkwardly...

Exactly. It was ridiculous that the likes of Cryme Tyme and Finlay were throwing him off. Hyprocritcal if you will.

big show went to the catering area immediately

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking this.

[TheDieselTrain]

The line about HHH saying he was trespassing because he was in a RAW ring made no sense seeing as how it was a tri-branded show that night.

Why did that 6 man tag match happen then? 4/6 werent from RAW.
