RAW 12/04/10 *Spoilers*

JP Liz V1

Already boasting an impressive résumé including starring roles in "Knight Rider" and "Baywatch," the one and only David Hasselhoff can now add Raw guest host to his exploits. The internationally beloved celebrity will govern Raw from London, England.

After Eve's triumphant display in a Red Carpet "Dress to Impress" Battle Royal, the talented maiden heads into the next Monday Night Raw to battle Divas Champion Maryse for the coveted title.

Also Batista V Randy Orton

The crowd should be decent tonight. Hopefully the atmosphere will help the show.

It would make SwANGLE look weak if he didn't!

I'd like to see him pushed.

Mr.Nice Guy

Bret's here? Cool.

IsThisIt???

The Miz is just great on the mic these days, love the way he's the voice of show-miz!!

Mr.Nice Guy

Really liked that segment and how Bret referenced the Bulldogs and Summerslam '92. Good stuff.

He knows how to speak to a wrestling audience at least.

If Orton gets Swagger at Extreme Rules why bother saying Swagger has switched to Smackdown until the draft the night after? And just have Hart vs Miz on Smackdown?

Very true... and he knows the British audience well...

... although I do get the feeling we won't see a huge amount of him tonight

I think I saw him between the Bellas. But that could be any host.

SScope

But at least he arrived in KITT and didn't surf in on top of Tommy Lee!

Carlito is still alive?!:eek::eek:

I've just realised Sky is claiming this is live.

Rjd2

King needs to **** off, Sheamus was pinned in the chamber 1-2-3, you ****wit. :rolleyes::mad:

It's going out at the exact same time as they see it on USA Network so as far as Sky are concerned that's "Live".

Sky probably don't realise (or care) that the show is on in London (which is really a shame for them as they could do some pretty good cross-promotional stuff when WWE come to the UK).

Sure they still use Papa Roach's "To Be Loved" for the break bumper - and check out the "i" button (show info) on the EPG... "featuring muscle-bound stars such as [...] and Shawn Michaels."

[edit].. Hornswoggle running in slow motion down a ramp in a lifeguard uniform... now THATs funny...

Scorpion Sting

That was hilarious with Hornswoggle - now come on Randy!!!!!

They usually slap on "Exclusive" over the taped Raw shows if I'm remembering it correctly.

Presume it's so they have an excuse to promote the match on Smackdown like they have with Cena/Batista so both world title matches can get the amount of build up

Ridley

I hate that gutwrench powerbomb.

chopperbyrne

Just watched RAW there. A solid show and The Hoff did a good job. Pity he screwed up the Rock impression at the start!

Now I'm going to go back on my word and give TNA one last chance...

JP Liz V1

I havent watched the show yet just read the results but was Otunga the only Nxt rookie at the show?

Is it because he has hollywood connections that he is getting pushed onto Raw?

I thought Swagger was facing Edge and Jericho for the title at Extreme Rules ppv

Well it's not like the Big Show can touch him on the mic.


I'm kinda confused as to why Orton is challenging Swagger, I mean.. If Swagger is on Smackdown!, and the #1 Contenders match between Edge and Jericho was a double countout, I expected it to be made a Triple Threat match, with Swagger sneaking the pin, and Edge and Jericho to keep feuding out of the title picture.

They needed a match for Orton on the PPV, and their was none for him on Raw so him Swagger it is. Smackdown is moving networks again, so Orton going their inn the draft to add some star power looks very likely now.

Jericho and Edge will probably have a cage match or something.

Angron

oh, SD is switching? Didn't realize that.. Now that Batista seems to be only on Raw, I suppose that makes a fair of sense to send Orton to Smackdown.

paddyismaddy

i liked raw this week the hoff did well

The Miz was the best thing on Raw... again.

Was it just me or was the crowd dead for Raw?

Oh yeah, it was extremely quiet which is unusual as the UK crowd are usually a good 1.

The Sun has an article up about Raw. Basically saying Miz stole the show. I concur wholeheartedly

JP Liz V1

The Miz was "awesome" this week i'm surprised DH Smith lost seeing at it was in the UK i thought he might have gone over The Miz

Otunga is Batisita's bitch now it might make more sense if Dave was Otunga's pro instead of R Truth

Jazzy

i watched this... its amazing how bad cena and batista actually are
