Raw 18/10 *Spoilers*

Tonight's episode of WWE Raw completes the Raw brand's hype for the Bragging Rights PPV on Sunday. Also, it will be Week 3 of WWE playing up John Cena's forced association with Nexus.
Announced as the TV main event is WWE champion Randy Orton & John Cena vs. NXT Season 2 Rookies Husky Harris & Michael McGillicutty in a lopsided match-up.
The stipulation for the match is Harris & McGillicutty obtain their Nexus membership with a victory. The match will also serve as final build-up for WWE champion Randy Orton vs. Wade Barrett for the WWE Title at the PPV.
Barring another "mystery seventh man" situation, like at Summerslam, WWE will announce the final member of The Miz's "Team Raw" for the seven-on-seven match against Big Show's "Team Smackdown" at the PPV.
Tonight's Raw will begin a streak of (at least) three consecutive episodes of Raw with a guest host/guest star.
Smackdown team captain Big Show is expected to be on Raw tonight with the final hype for Bragging Rights and his co-star in "Knucklehead," Bobb'e J. Thompson, scheduled to "guest star" on Raw. "Knucklehead" is due out this weekend in a limited two-day theatrical release.
WWE will also likely be hyping the Unified Divas Title match at the PPV. Continuing the "inter-brand competition" theme, the Raw brand's Natalya challenges the Smackdown brand's Unified Divas champion, Michelle McCool.

I assume Henry will take Team Raw's final spot

So is everyone expecting Barrett to get Cena to either take a dive or to attack Orton and essentially make it 3 on 1?

I do think Husky & Perfect Jnr will win and be part of the Nexus

agree with that, nexus need people after losing sheffield through injury and tarver and otunga aren't great in the ring

My prediction: Orton RKOs Harris and McGillicutty, Cena gives Orton the Attitude Adjustment because of Barrett and pulls either Harris or McGillicutty over Orton to make the pin. After the match, Cena tries to apologise to Orton, but gets an RKO. Orton will presumably then RKO Harris, McGillicutty, Barrett, the ref, Michael Cole, Lawler, the GM laptop, the ringpost, himself, the Titantron, The Miz who tries to cash in his MITB contract, the MITB contract and finally the little copyright information box that comes up in the corner of the screen at the end of the show

Seems very plausable, that is prob how the show will end! I'm enjoying the Barrett-Cena dymamic lately, hopefully they can keep that going again tonight.

He'll probably start yelling at the Titantron for making it too obvious that it was about to get RKO'd too

Big Return Tonight

Vince McMahon, and it's believed to be to rally the fans against the media and not a new storyline. Vince has a video up at http://www.corporate.wwe.com that you can see for yourself regarding the full court press expected until the election.

Mr.Nice Guy

LOL at that trophy.

CMpunked

here comes the end of the hart dynasty...

CMpunked

CMpunked: 1
Raw booking: 0

GTR63

The Hart Dynasty are Over! At least for one night only(in canada). Why are the fans chanting for Bret haven't we had enough of him & his jean shorts to last us a lifetime.
Just read Vince is doing a Announcement that may have something to do with the Stand Up Campaign.If he sings a "Stand Back" remix with "Stand Up" this may be worth watching.

He is doing an announcement about why people should be proud to watch and support wwe.
surely doing what you suggested would defeat the purpose. :rolleyes:

Liam O

Wonder how much that Ryder bloke makes for being the biggest joke in the WWE...

Enjoying Goldust's new angle though, it's better than a lot of recent filler.

Mr Trade In

Michael Cole wearing a blue shirt, whats the chances of him being a spy for Smackdown, this week is pretty shít,missing a headbutt moment,hope nexus gets two new members.

Super-Rush

**** sake make Cena wear the Nexus t-shirt.

CMpunked

what was the point in teddy long robbing the gm laptop?

Not going to happen the human merchandise stand Cena won't wear anyone elses shirt,due to wwe not wanting to loose Shirt sales to Kids.It also has a LOT to do with them not turning him heel.

They could make him do it against his will. The Cena fans would lap it up and it would bring some credibility to the story.

Super-Rush

Lol is everyone ignoring that Ezekiel Jackson is on team RAW?:pac:

DOC09UNAM

Wow a scoop slam from orton, never seen that before, exciting match.

GTR63

Totally agree with you.It'd get great heat but Vince is so picky. You can see that by him showing the Charity work wwe does more often in the run up to Linda's election.
This was in response to the Cena Nexus Shirt thing not Ezikiel Jackson on Team Raw.

CMpunked

that copyright title card got out of the way nicely before orton got tagged in :pac:

DOC09UNAM

at least gabriel didn't botch the 450

Degag

Is Cena fired from Nexus or the WWE if he doesn't comply? I presume it's the WWE or it wouldn't make much sense otherwise....

They could but gtr63 is spot on. WWE dont do anything to take away from revenue. They also dont do anything entertaining to make revenue. *ba'da'dish*

lol.
Seriously tho, man wrestling sucks these days. Maybe i've outgrown it or something.

GTR63

Not a lot of heat for Ortons beatdown.No suprise I don't see his appeal.In case anyone didn't realise wwe are telling us that McGillicudy & Harris are kinda jobbers,not quite as bad as Zack Ryder though.

CoolHat

Is it me or is WWE PPV's every 3 weeks now?

That means they could cram in 17 ppv's a year... well 16 including the big run up to wrestlemania they usually have (no ppv for 4-5 weeks)

Business must be really down.

DOC09UNAM

I hate this woman, I wish she was executed tbh.

Insect Overlord

Has Vicky lost weight?! :eek:

Mr.Nice Guy

Hope Kaitlyn is here.

Possible.
But she is wearing black.

Super-Rush

Wow Gail Kim couldn't even do that right.

Jesus christ that dancing segment was awful.

GTR63

God no Bryan against one of the most boring Wrestlers ever. Was that a Lance Storm refrence there. Here's a Question that needs answering Who was less over Lance Storm or Hardcore Holly.

Mr.Nice Guy

Vickie's lost a good bit of weight. She's been at the gym. There was a Lance Storm reference in there, yeah. No Kaitlyn this week.

CMpunked

so bryan v ziggler with vickie and eve in the corners probably.

CoolHat

I like lance storm... But I still say lance storm.
Least hardcore holly had moments in his wwe career where he was liked to a degree (the hollys etc)

Ha its funny you can watch Holly's shoot interview and he b*tches about how the office would'nt give him a chance to get over. Seriously how many times did WWE push him down peoples faces.

DOC09UNAM

The twins

CMpunked

well thats interesting...

"78% of our programming audience is over 18 years old"...

then why dont they aim it at the majority?

GTR63

What a Load of BS that video is.Rife with inaccuraties & a load of Total F**king ****E. I hope no one that doesn't watch Wrestling see's this.

Mr.Nice Guy

That 'Stand up' segment was painful. As much as I admire Cena hearing him say that stuff about the 18-35 demographic made him sound like one of Vince's corporate marketing lick-arses.

GTR63

Did it say something like 16 Million viewers.Does Vince even check the Ratings.I'm assuming he think no one watches Raw AND Smackdown.If thats the Case about 1% of their fans buy PPV's.

CMpunked

who is this?!

floyd mayweather jr jr?

Insect Overlord

This could get messy, and not in a good way. Too many cooks.

GTR63

Cole just said a Battle Royal was Original. He's forgotten we had one 2 weeks ago & there was another one on impact! Recently.

Super-Rush

Big Show and Sheamus to be the final two?

Probably has to be Show and Miz, the two captains.

DOC09UNAM

edge isn't out is He? Over the top rope i thought?

Mr.Nice Guy

Go Sheamus.
