Raw 5/1

The Champ's Still Here
May 1, 2006


The Champ is still here as Monday Night RAW heads into Columbus, Ohio tonight.

As first reported on WWE's new Mobile Alert system, The Cutting Edge will return tonight on RAW, and Edge's guest will be none other than Mick Foley. At WrestleMania 22, Edge and Foley had one of the most brutal Hardcore Matches ever, ending when the Rated R Superstar speared the Hardcore Legend through a flaming table. With their bloody war at WrestleMania 22 still fresh on both men's minds, what will Foley have to say and what will happen?

Last night at Backlash, Edge had a chance to become WWE Champion, but John Cena pinned Triple H to win the Triple Threat Match and retain the gold. However, when the match was over, The Game grabbed his sledgehammer, attacking Cena, Edge and even referee Mickie Hensen. A bloodied Cerebral Assassin stood tall as Cena and Edge lay in the ring; will The Champ have anything to say about the attack tonight?

Mr. McMahon is also coming off a huge victory at Backlash, as The Spirit Squad helped the WWE Chairman and his son Shane defeat Shawn Michaels and "God" in a No-Disqualification Match. As also first reported on WWE's new Mobile Alert system, Mr. McMahon will make a huge announcement tonight on RAW. What will it be?

Also last night, Rob Van Dam defeated Shelton Benjamin to become the Intercontinental Champion. With both Intercontinental gold and the Money in the Bank briefcase in his possession, what’s next on the agenda for Mr. Monday Night?


Plus, Trish Stratus defeated Mickie James by disqualification, but suffered a dislocated shoulder during the match. Will there be any further update on her injury?

Find out all this and more on RAW tonight at 9/8 CT on USA Network.


Well, no official matches. But Foley appearing on Edge's show is supposedly to be regarding One Night Stand.

[Nimrod]

Could Foley possibly be wrestling at ONS?

[CM Mark]

Could Foley possibly be wrestling at ONS?
Foley vs Funk perhaps?

[Nimrod]

Foley vs Funk perhaps?

That's exactly what I was thinking

[askewcore]

Foley vs Funk perhaps?

That would be way to entertaining for the WWE to pull off. They'll probably make Funk dress up like Chainsaw Charlie.

[Nimrod]

WWE.com says Trish will be out for six weeks

[CM Mark]

That would be way to entertaining for the WWE to pull off. They'll probably make Funk dress up like Chainsaw Charlie.
FOr those that don't get it,

[mikeybot]

Damnit. Now I have to watch since Mick's going to be on.

[Kyle]

Joey Styles is calling RAW tonight...it's expected to be his last RAW broadcast before J.R. takes back over.

[Kyle]

One minute in and I already hate this show.

[FAngel]

Well...what a charming way to start the show.

[FAngel]

Did they boot the Coach from the booth completely?

[Kyle]

Oooh...Maria...I love this show again.

[Kyle]

Did they boot the Coach from the booth completely?

Yeah...and this Joey's last night too.

[FAngel]

These outfits make up for that HORRID music that now belongs to Maria. And lil' Chloe even has an outfit on.

[Kyle]

This is an awful match...but strangely hot

[FAngel]

That Geico gecko sounds exactly like NoFilterPaul.

[Kyle]

What the fuck is this?

[FAngel]

Oh my God, Snitsky is out as a babyface. Oh my God.

Did anyone else see that pig go by overhead?

Edit: And what the hell was that finger tussle that he and Goldust just exchanged?

[CM Mark]

Eugene, Snitsky and Golddust?


This has to be the greatest six man tag team EVER!

[Nimrod]

Spirit Straws? Blech

Snitsky!

[FAngel]

"Whaddya, smell feet? Get out of the ring!"

Every now and then, the King gets a good line in.

[CM Mark]

Okay, that match was pointless

[Big Dick Mcgee]

Why the hell are thet bringing JR back? It's been so nice with him gone.

[Kyle]

Oooh...Maria again on Unlimited...oh well, she just got destroyed by Mickie...and by destroyed, Mickie went Waco on her while she was doing the "Kiss Cam"

TV didn't do justice the volume of those screams.

[Kyle]

Why the fuck is Eugene in another segment?

[Kyle]

Hah...Vince recap

[FAngel]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That was a dictionary to the head by Striker!

[Kyle]

Rob Conway promo on Unlimited....ugh!

[Kyle]

Anyone else think it's Paul Bearer saying the "May 19th" over the intercom? Sounds kind of like him if you've ever heard him talk normal.

[FAngel]

When did David Lee Roth start wresting? Jesus...

[FAngel]

HA! I love HBK's little facial expressions and gestures.

[FAngel]

Time for Mick...

[CM Mark]

I just saw an RoH is WAR sign in the crowd.



Nice!

[mikeybot]

Nice, this better happen

[CM Mark]

Well, gotta watch Raw next week. Foley vs Edge again

[FAngel]

FINALLY a Raw to look forward to!

[CM Mark]

I swear to God. I hope there is a screw up and Kenny wins the title tonight.

[CM Mark]

I see a tag team match right now

EDIT: Nope, not predictable at all.

[Kyle]

I really hope this doesn't end with the Spirit Squad firing Joey...but I think we all know what's going to happen.

[Kyle]

So do we get "Let's Go Kenny" chants during this match?

[Kyle]

And that's the end of that...I still think Joey's a better commentator than J.R.

[CM Mark]

That suprised me. That was actually a good way to get Joey out of the booth.

[FAngel]

Yeah, I'm glad Joey didn't just magically disappear. See ya again next month, Joey!

[Kyle]

That suprised me. That was actually a good way to get Joey out of the booth.

I'm glad someone finally called King what he is...a hack, even if it was scripted for him to do so. Tazz has been taking little shots at Lawler for years, but I'm glad it was said.

On a side note, I love the knitter screaming "No he didn't!" after Joey slapped him.

[CM Mark]

I just wish Joey hadn't run off like a pussy.


NICE! More stuff.

[FAngel]

How awesome is it that they're letting him say this on TV? And the crowd is loving it too!

[mikeybot]

The knitter was f'ing funny as hell.
Agreed, good way to move him out for going back to ECW.
This is actually shaping up to not be totally retarded for a change.
I kind of like JR just for his slurred way of saying 'slobberknocker'.

[CM Mark]

Holy Shit.

[mikeybot]

:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Calling out the fans. NICE!

[Kyle]

I fucking love Joey!!!

I can't wait for ECW.

[Baby Evil]

Greatest Promo Ever Cut!

[CM Mark]

That had to be the best segment on Raw EVER!

[Kyle]

Todd Grisham's been sent down to call the Main Event...just saw it on Unlimited

[FAngel]

Ante up, boys - how is Cena going to slither out of this one???

[Nimrod]

Great......now we can go back to hearing about slobberknockers, gov't mules ,and scolded dogs each week.

[Kyle]

HHH purposely costs Kenny the match...he wants to be the one to beat Cena.

I just want to hear a "Let's Go Kenny" chant...that alone would tell me how deep the Cena hatred runs.

[CM Mark]

Why is Ohio cheering this shitface?

[FAngel]

Great......now we can go back to hearing about slobberknockers, gov't mules ,and scolded dogs each week.

Don't forget about those goofy pet coons!

[mikeybot]

Anyone want to start speculation with the fact that the two ex DX members were special refs tonight?

[Nimrod]

Don't forget about those goofy pet coons!

What about tough $2 steaks?

Did I miss any?

[FAngel]

What about tough $2 steaks?

I remember those - I found one in a mudhole that had been stomped and subsequently walked dry.

[CM Mark]

What about tough $2 steaks?

Did I miss any?
Or the Oklahoma SOoners

[Kyle]

Or the Oklahoma SOoners

Boomer Sooner! Boomer Sooner! My GOD! Boomer Sooner!

[mikeybot]

Aaaand that's how Cena keeps it. The Spirit Squad pisses him off

[FAngel]

Hunter comes back out and Pedigrees Cena and celebrates with HBK???

[mikeybot]

Did they get new writers?

[FAngel]

"John Cena has beaten the odds again, King!"




............................................did he?

[Kyle]

Well, the Joey promo made it worth watching for me.

[Sack of Chisels]

That was the perfect opportunity for a cena heel turn AND a dx reformation, but no. Jesus christ what are they thinking?

[mikeybot]

That was the perfect opportunity for a cena heel turn AND a dx reformation, but no. Jesus christ what are they thinking?

I doubt that HHH would go for that without him having the belt

[Moneysnatch25]

That was the perfect opportunity for a cena heel turn AND a dx reformation, but no. Jesus christ what are they thinking?

you do not.. and i REPEAT..DO NOT... shoot your load in one evening!!! Give it time... Things have to build.. just the fact that they took the time to have HHH and HBK stand there and look at one another, makes everything worthwhile... It seems to me, that they have learned their lesson from July 9, 2001.. Very Good show tonite.... but the Joey promo was lost on Columbus, OH.. Had they been back east, it would have been received much differently... but oh well.... let's enjoy the ride boys!!!:clap: :clap:

[askewcore]

Is Umaga Rosie or Jamal?

[Kid Brock]

Is Umaga Rosie or Jamal?


Jamal. Rosie was the hard worker that never got in trouble in the locker room. Jamal was a jackass in the back and now magically gets a push as a rip off of his uncles or dad or whoever when they did the Wild Samoans. Rosie gets cut because the writers have nothing for him, yet they bring Jamal back in.

[askewcore]

Ah ok. I'm down with his manager, the spanish version of the Doctor of Style Slick.

[Kid Brock]

You have got to be shitting me, my TIVO just fucked up its first recording ever and it happens to be RAW and it actually sounded like a decent one. I am not watching stupid RAW AM or whatever they call it on Saturday Mornings.

[CM Mark]

Sucks to be you or unlucky lottery?

[mikeybot]

That's a sucks to be you.

[Kid Brock]

Sucks to be you or unlucky lottery?


Thanks for the support bro. :rolleyes: How come they can't replay RAW like in the middle of the night. Would they lose too much money by not running infomercials? If they ran it again I could freakin record it again.

[flyerfan116]

How awesome is it that they're letting him say this on TV? And the crowd is loving it too!
if anyone has this and could post it or send it to me please let me know..

[CM Mark]

Oh come on. Someone had to say it. And finally I was first in line to make a horrible comment like that. :action-sm

No offense

[askewcore]

Yo, same thing happened to me. Also the first time it's ever fucked up.

How did Cena overcome this happy horseshit?

[Kid Brock]

The segment is up on WWE.com if anyone wants to see it.

[mikeybot]

Yo, same thing happened to me. Also the first time it's ever fucked up.

How did Cena overcome this happy horseshit?

Short version-
Sprit Squad pissed off HHH, he threw some Pedigrees. He walked out, HBK came out then took out Kenny with a Sweet Chin Music. Cena pinned.
I'd watch it anyway though.

[Kid Brock]

How long before they just reform DX? Enough of HHH and HBK crotch chopping weak after weak with no payoff.

[askewcore]

Maybe, since HBK helped Cena, we'll see a tag team match with HBK and Cena vs. HHH and anyone and they'll turn on Cena....maybe...but probably not. They really need to bring DX back though, or at least form some kinda new bad guy stable...one that's not based on male cheerleaders, although I like the Spirit Squad.
