RAW Spoilers 16/02/09

JP Liz

HHH and Edge both on RAW

OrtonViper

It's just Tripel H acctually and John cena may go to SD

JP Liz

I'm really curious as to see if HHH will acknowledge on screen being married to Steph and how it will play out. He ran to her aid so how will the writers explain this HHH is way over as a face and also on SD - will this hurt his screen persona???????

HHH has sarcasticly joked about it before on numerous occasions without actually saying it yet everyone knows they are married - BTW if anyone didnt - sorry

My theory is somehow Steph manages to get HHH to face Orton for the title at WM - Orton wins, Steph interferes and reveals herself to be the brains behind Legacy - Orton has taken out all her family and now she is in complete control

Piper is awesome.

Overall the show wasnt that great imo but what a great RKO from Orton to Steph at the end and then HHH appeared, man he really looked like he was just going to burst at the the end he was playing up how inraged he was at Orton so much.

Piper and Jericho also had a nice little promo which again seems to suggest the WWE want Mickey Rourke at Wrestlemania, but are going to keep it kinda quiet until the Oscars maybe with the possibility of SCSA or someone stepping in to take Rourkes place perhaps.

Edge explained that he and Raw's title can be found on SD, therefore just like i called in the NWO thread itl be HHH vs Orton and Cena vs Edge, with Cena following Edge back to Smackdown to get his rematch, and Orton choosing to take out the one final member of stephs family her husband...HHH as they finally break kayfabe on the marraige.

Also its seems itl be an all texan afair as the streak is defended with either JBL or HBK vs The Undertaker (both maybe) at Wrestlemania. It also seems WWE are doing their best to get fans of SD watching Raw and vice-versa

Was it just me who found it stupid that Raws number 1 champion CM Punk

(for seven days at least)

was booked in the first match with a load of midcarders?
Lets not forget...

I dont think it will hurt HHH's persona it could mean he wont be to joking kinda of HHH goind into WM(if he faces Orton) he will be the p****d off HHH looking for revenge on Orton for RKO'ing his wife.

I think they need a screwjob at WM for a change since we havent had a major one since WM X7(unless you count trish turning on Y2J at WM 20). I could see possibly the ref is down so is the legacy , steph runs down just as Orton is about to punt HHH. She starts shouting at Orton until she turns around and runs at HHH and kicks im his head herself , allowing Orton to hit a RKO as the ref slowly makes his way back into the ring and counts the 1 2 3. Then all 4 pose as WM ends. That would be great if it happened .:)

Former WWE World Heavyweight Champion John Cena is scheduled to appear at tonight's Smackdown double taping in Portland, Oregon, reports ProWrestling.net. Other matches scheduled for the event include Triple H defending his newly won WWE Championship in a Triple Threat match against Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy. Plus, Big Show will face Undertaker in a casket match.

Looks like Cena could be going to Smackdown for good so

its the most logical thing really, he follows the title that he has a rematch clause with even if its not on Raw anymore bcos of Edge, WWE want people watching both brands atm and not just for the title situation as Taker will be fighting a Raw superstar at WM.

Just finished watching the final segment and my conclusion?

Steph sold the rko pretty well...

brick tamland

the draft is right after WM isnt it?

with taker v hbk, hhh v orton, and cena v edge all technically cross brand matches. I'd fully expect there to be a big crossover of all the top stars on TV until mania and then they'll sort it all out with the draft

MikeHoncho

Final segment was brilliant. Steph took the RKO like a champ and facials from Randy and Trips were spot on.

So SuperHunter was on Raw? Talk about overkill. He's getting more airtime than the number one contender ffs.

Well he would kind of need to be on Raw when they are setting up a match between him and Orton for Mania (or at least its looking like a match between them at Mania).

Jolt2007

I really don't know what to make of Orton anymore. He plays the heel role very well, but it all gets undermined so much the way he always needs Priceless to save him from getting beat, twice from Shane of all people now and I find it hard to believe the three of them would be as scared of HHH as they looked after he showed up.

If the WWE championship belongs on RAW at the moment then yeah it does.

Most probably because of No Way Out - people wondering which if any champ would be on Raw. And of course, the first real night on the road to Wrestlemania always sets up a few matches etc for Mania.

rude awakening

RKO! RKO! RKO! RKO! RKO! RKO! LOL
sorry watchin raw here... And wwe finally accept on TV that Triple H and Steph are married.

got carried away up there... sorry

i am probably looking way too much into this but earlioer on when steph was talkin to shane her hand was in fron of the screen for a good 2 seconds, seemed to me like she was showing off the wedding ring (again think im lookin into it a bit too much) so they could be makin it "official" now!

Fozzy

Very good Raw. HHH got some pop at the end. Him and Orton should be good

Kid Nothing

I'm pretty sure they're definitely acknowledging the whole marriage thing, I mean what other (storyline) reason would HHH have to come out looking so pissed?!!!!!!
