Not Teddy....

Not Island Iced Z....

But 3 hours!

That's right, the company that struggled to fill 2 hours last Monday proudly presents 'A Very Special Episode' of Raw!

The guy that the WWE Board of Directors fired almost a year ago returns tonight to give job evaluations.

'That doesn't make sense' you say?
'Did I miss an episode where he was reinstated?'

FUCK YOU FOR PAYING ATTENTION TO DETAILS!

The fun starts at 7.

There are reports that we could get something big and I think we will, go out a limb and put that.

I was reading last week that they are working on a Big Angle, it was compared to the Nexus Invasion.

If I was running the show, I would this as a preview to the upcoming move to 3 hours, I would bring Vince out early to help the first hour. Usually nobody remembers it's on early and missed the first hour.

Hopefully they will know about Del RIo's status and if he is out, have a thing so we will know who Sheamus is facing and not wait untill Smackdown.

Get something with the Big SHow-Cena, along with Punk,Kane, and Bryan and we will see where they go from there.

This Raw needs to sell the ppv and some of the Raws before the ppv lately haven't done that.

Alvarez said there are apparently two scripts written for this show, one with Vince all over the place and one where he leaves after the first segment.

I'm sure there will be at least 3 more scripts written before 7.

I vote for the script that keeps Big Show off tv.

If you believe the Observer, the ones that have been getting used usually aren't finished until after 7 (or 8 in the case of most weeks).

Oh lord. How old is he now, 60?

I used to be a huge Vader guy, but I still remember his last appearance when he fell out of the ring, and that had to be over 5 years ago.

He wrestled for Resistance Pro last month.

Yeah, that was sad. He had a pretty quick decline, I remember a really bad match betwixt he and Mark Henry or something at a PPV in the late 90's. May have been the same PPV that had HHH in 3 Pin match that featured around 30 double clotheslines.

He had some great matches with Sting back in WCW. I've never seen a big guy move like him. But yeah, he was clearly done 10 years ago.

Got this from Wreslezone, don't know how true.

WZ has learned from sources that Linda McMahon's campaign for Senate in Connecticut could be affecting both a major WWE storyline and the company's decision to fire talent.

Our sources report that WWE is holding back on firing any talents right now because of Linda McMahon's campaign, which is promoting her as a "job creator." In the past, WWE has been known to do some spring cleaning after WrestleMania season and release several talents in a short period of time. This wave of mass releases hasn't happened yet and sources are telling WZ it may not happen this year in order to avoid bad publicity for McMahon's political campaign.

We're also being told that McMahon being a "job creator" could affect tonight's storyline with John Laurinaitis having his job evaluated by Vince McMahon. Sources said they wouldn't be surprised if Laurinaitis got some kind of stay of approval as opposed to Mr. McMahon's typical "you're fired" gimmick.

Definitely true. Per all of the former writers, a lot of rewrites are done up until the show starts and sometimes during the show. Just like the Nitro days.


Here is the post Slammiversary recap and Raw pre-game show

Wrestling Observer Radio with Bryan Alvarez and Dave Meltzer returns tonight to talk all the news in wrestling and MMA including a full review of one of TNA's best shows in a long time, the 10-year SLAMMIVERSARY PPV, with thoughts on all the matches, backstage notes and more. Also, tons of news including thoughts on WWE and UFC injuries shuffling cards and resulting in turmoil, Raw Monday night, Manny Pacquiao, your questions and tons more.

Man ,Vader. He was one guy who I was scared of in my younger days. He seemed to be a wild out of control guy. Then one day you read on the internet he was a teacher, blows your mind. I miss when I used to really get into it and the only peak I had behind the curtain was the Observer. Even then they respected the business and didn't let everything out.

If I was writing the show and total control. Vince would be on a lot. He brings ratings when used on a limited basis. Not only would I have Vince on but Steph and I would do all I could to talk Shane to show up. I am still in awe of some of the things he put his body through.
If nothing happens to Ace because of Linda's campaign then that just shows how much Vince dislikes his company. I am a diehard Republican/conservative and I would never vote for her. She has no chance in winning. If I was her opponent I would bring up the drug scandals, Benoit and pimping er daughter out for ratings. Also, I was wondering why there was no round of releases like usual.
