GET THE CASE

Oh Ricardo :lol:

I love it.

My face after that was very similar to that of the little girl they filmed after Miz cashed in on Orton.

I believe he has one year after winning it, which was July 15th last year.

He has until around the time of the MITB PPV.

Barrett V Sheamus for the IC title at 'Mania could be good if it had a good build!
Ireland V England,writes itself really.

This crowd seem to want to be anywhere but RAW.

Scott Hall with DDP and Jake Roberts.

Good luck, fellas.

Didn't realise Hall was in a wheelchair.

It better be an awesome belt!!!!

Edit:Generic as hell. :fp:

Turns out those pics were genuine then.

Should've stuck with the spinner. At least it has personality.

Hour 1

John Cena made his way out to open RAW. He said after last night, we know the two main events for WrestleMania 29: Alberto Del Rio vs. Jack Swagger (which garnered as close to a zero reaction from the crowd as is humanly possible) and John Cena vs. The Rock. CM Punk's music then hit, and he and Paul Heyman made their way to the ring. Punk claimed John Cena was lucky in the Royal Rumble match, Rock vs. Cena is nothing more than re-run television, and that John Cena is incapable of winning the big one. Punk said Cena should do everyone a favour and leave. John was about to walk out, when he changed his mind and actually said Punk made some good points; he'd never beaten Punk or The Rock. John Cena said he was willing to prove something to himself and his critics by putting his match with The Rock at WrestleMania on the line against CM Punk. If CM Punk can beat him, then he can go on to face The Rock for the WWE Championship instead. Cena wanted it tonight, but CM Punk had other ideas, and said he'd do it on his own terms - next week on RAW.

Cole and Lawler recapped The Shield defeating Cena, Ryback and Sheamus at Elimination Chamber.

A quote from Thomas Jefferson appeared on screen.

Matt Striker interviewed Sheamus backstage. Sheamus said last night didn't go to plan. As he was talking to Striker, Ryback was pacing back and forth. Sheamus stopped Ryback and asked if he was a neanderthal. They were both about to get into it when Chris Jericho stepped in and said they shouldn't be fighting each other, but be putting all their anger towards The Shield. Jericho said he's seen the nWo, and Nexus, and these guys were even worse (stretching credibility somewhat there, Chris...). Jericho said he was going to ask Vickie that they all take on The Shield tonight.

Match 1: Mark Henry pinned Sin Cara following the World's Strongest Slam in a demolition job. After the match, Mark Henry was about to give Sin Cara another World's Strongest Slam when The Great Khali interrupted. As Khali got in the ring, Henry made his exit, mockingly danced a little and shouted to Khali "That's all you do anyway, dancing".

Cole and Lawler recapped the closing moments of Cesaro vs. The Miz from last night. They announced that both men would face each in a rematch tonight on RAW in a No Disqualification match.

They announced via a Tweet that Vickie Guererro had agreed to Sheamus, Ryback and Chris Jericho taking on The Shield later tonight.

They aired another Fandango. Go. Go. Go. vignette.

The Miz and Antonio Cesaro were already in the ring for their match. They re-aired last week's RAW beat-down by Cesaro on the Miz.

Match 2: The Miz defeated United States Champion Antonio Cesaro in a non-title, weapons-strewn No Disqualification match with the Figure Four.

They recapped The Elimination Chamber match from last night.

They aired a pre-tape from http://www.youtube.com/wethepeoplezeb of Zeb Colter, accompanied by Jack Swagger, cutting an anti-IMMIGRATION promo about those blasted piss taking foreigners.

They showed an Abraham ~~Washington~~ Lincoln quote.

Daniel Bryan was walking backstage when he bumped into Kane. Daniel Bryan said he had requested a singles match against Jack Swagger, and that he didn't want Kane coming down. Kane said in which case he was going to request a singles match tonight too, and he didn't want Bryan coming down to assist him either. Kane said he didn't deal well with snakes. The camera then panned out to reveal Randy Orton. He said Kane used to be intimidating but is now more like Barny the Dinosaur, as Kane couldn't believe what he'd just said and Daniel Bryan laughed.

Vickie Guerrero was backstage on the phone when Paul Heyman walked up to her. Vickie mockingly said the stipulations Heyman begged for in the main event last night were a great idea. Vickie told Paul that she had something that would impact on Heyman's entire career, and that they were going to do it in the ring later. Heyman said he doesn't like over-dramatic women, and that he doesn't like surprises. Vickie cackled as she walked off, while Paul had somewhat of a sly grin on his face.

Match 3: Dolph Ziggler (w/Big E Langston and AJ Lee) vs. Alberto Del Rio (w/Ricardo)

Hour 2

Alberto Del Rio tapped out Dolph Ziggler with the arm bar.

Following the match, Big E Langston ran over Del Rio and nailed his finishing manoeuvre. Langston proclaimed Del Rio's 'time was over'. Dolph Ziggler then grabbed the Money in the Bank briefcase and was about to cash in when Ricardo stole the briefcase. Big E instantly gave chase, as Ricardo ran to the back, albeit dropping the briefcase on the ramp in the process. AJ Lee went to retrieve it. As Dolph Ziggler was distracted by AJ, Del Rio nailed him with the Enziguri kick.

They announced Kane would take on Randy Orton later tonight.

Wade Barrett was in the ring to cut a promo. He said he's about to become a huge movie star in Dead Man Down. Crowd chanted "What". They aired the film trailer. He was in the trailer for all of 1 second. Sheamus interrupted and said Wade Barrett isn't the star of the film, his mate Colin Farrell is. Sheamus said they were now out of time, while Wade stood in the ring shouting Sheamus had ruined his big moment.

Cole and Lawler, continuing in shill mode, had the WWE Power Slammers toys on the announce table. They aired a video and played with them.

Match 4: Tensai, Brodus Clay and Naomi's arse defeated Primo, Epico and Rosa Mendes in a quick bout.

They aired highlights of the WWE WrestleMania XXX Press Conference from earlier today.

Harry S. Truman quote.

Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter were in the ring for their President's Day State of the Union Address. A massively disinterested crowd could just about muster a "What" chant. Worth pointing out however that the crowd on this show have been truly diabolical. Zeb Colter went on another IMMIGRATION rant. Del Rio and Ricardo were shown watching on backstage. Zeb said it wasn't a World Title match at Mania, but a battle for America. Daniel Bryan's music interrupted theirs for his match with Swagger.

Match 5: Jack Swagger defeated Daniel Bryan with the Patriot Lock submission.

You've seen more energy in a Post Office on giro day than from this crowd.

Vickie Guerrero was in the ring with Paul Heyman to finally wake the crowd up from their stupor. Vickie said she was going to be naming a new assistant to the Managing Supervisor. She announced it was Brad Maddox. That's all we need, more people in charge. Brad said it was his reward for his loyalty, and exposing Paul and The Shield. He said Vince was so happy with him that he'd given him the opportunity of a lifetime. Vickie and Brad got into the correct pronunciation and semantics of "Managing Supervisor". Vince McMahon appeared on the TitanTron, clutching crutches, seemingly regressing from earlier today when he didn't need them - which in a pure WCW moment had actually aired about 30 minutes ago. Vince showed Paul Heyman saying last week that he'd "do anything" for the stipulation at Elimination Chamber. Vince said he had that put in writing. Vince told Paul Heyman that he could fire him right now, but that was too good for him. Vince said that next week he'd walk to the ring on crutches and the two of them were going to have a fight. Crowd remained dead, having been told twice in one evening what they could expect on RAW from Dallas.

They aired a video promoting the WWE WrestleMania Reading Challenge.

They re-aired the opening confrontation between Punk and John Cena.

Hour 3

Back in the IMPACT ZONE...

Match 6: The Shield beat Chris Jericho, Sheamus and Ryback when Ambrose pinned Jericho after Seth Rollins hit Jericho with a knee to the head off the top rope.

John F. KENNEDY. KENNEDY quote.

Damien Sandow cut a promo. He said many of his family had worked with former Presidents, and then called the crowd nitwits.

Kofi Kingston and Damien Sandow never got going as Sandow jumped Kofi Kingston before the bell. R-Truth ran down to make the save and beat the piss out of Sandow.

Josh Mathews interviewed two cast members of G.I. Joe again in the crowd.

They aired a trailer for G.I Joe.

A Fandango. Go. Go. Go. vignette aired for the 90th time.

Main Event: Randy Orton defeated Kane in a snooze fest when Daniel Bryan came out, distracting Kane and allowing Randy Orton to hit the RKO.

In what has become a staple of 2013, a promo was our final segment. The Louisiana Marching Band were on the stage and ramp to signal the entrance of The Rock. The Rock, clutching the original WWE Spinner belt, made his way to the ring, as the Marching Band played him in. The Rock unveiled the new WWE Championship title which we've seen half-finished photos of for many months.

He asked a stage hand to take the WWE Spinner title, which he said looked like a toy, to the back and make sure it ends up in the WWE Hall of Fame. Rock polled the crowd on what they thought of it. Seemingly disappointed by their reaction - quite easily the hottest they'd been all night - he needed to ask them to cheer louder 3 times. John Cena made his way out onto the ramp. Before he could do anything, CM Punk sneaked out and nailed him with the WWE Spinner championship, before dumping it on the ramp, pointing at The Rock and walking out. The Rock looked on from the ring at a downed John Cena to take RAW off the air.

WWE From The Vault: Alberto Del Rio vs. R-Truth vs Rey Mysterio from RAW, June 2011.

Hmm the way this is going I think Taker could be missing Mania and we are getting a three way.

captain red dog wrote:Hmm the way this is going I think Taker could be missing Mania and we are getting a three way.

I would say that's a definite.

Although I'd say a 3 way makes the main event more appealing to me, plus if Cena goes over he will look much stronger beating Rock and Punk.

I'm not too keen on the new belt. They should go back to the winged eagle or the attitude era variation. Those actually looked like real title belts.

We could still get Taker/Brock right?

I don't like the black bits between the WWE logo on the new belt

New belt looks so much better tranche spinner one. Still a bit too much bling though.

Too much jewels. Belts are better just being a block of metal.

Anything's better than the piece of gooseberry fool before that.

Really like the new title.

Enjoy it while it lasts. Cena will be back soon enough.
