I know it's early, but wanted to know if anyone had a prediction or two. I figure they'll start fueling a Taker/Kane vs. Austin/HHH angle, or maybe have a match tomorrow night. Anyone care to toss in their two cents?

I have no clue what to think will happen... so many possibilties. But your taker/kane vs austin/hhh sounds sweet

HBK ?

Foley will return to the wwf in a major role some how. maybe commish again? or hell Linda could just fire vince. :p
Chances are good they will develope the UT/Kane vs HHH/austin fued.

tag belts will be in NY, so expect not much from there.
as for HBK.. i wonder where they can fit him now?? when he was to make his return before wrestlemania, he was suppose to be leading into an angle were austin is at.. teaming with austin to face Kane and UT. so lets see what they do with it.

Original Desmond 04-09-01 01:21 AM

i'd like to see HBK feud with Austin

remember the last time HBK was on Raw i think was when he was questioned re Austin being run over by Foley. They showed HBK losing to Austin. Maybe they can continue the feud based on that with HBK back to prove he's still the best !

Meatpants 04-09-01 01:44 PM

As much as I mark for HBK, he ain't coming back for a while after what happened a couple weeks ago. The rumor was he was all set to face HHH at Backlash, but I think that's been scrapped now. Besides, if they did bring HBK back tonight, it wouldn't make sense for

1. him to jump right into the world title match
2. HHH to forget about his feud with the UT and focus on HBK
3. austin to be left to fight UT or Kane in three weeks at Backlash

Tonight's surprise will be something stupid w/ Foley.

yummy... lita.... ::drool::

pls pls HBK :)

What was the point of tonight's Raw? To have Linda announce her divorce from Vince? To generate even more heat for HHH and Austin? They don't need it! This weeks Smackdown had better be great to compensate for tonight.

Yeah and I guess the return of Hardcore Holly and the start of the new feud between the Dudley's and X-factor, not to mention the hint of JR going to WCW. All in all though, pretty un-eventful RAW - kinda disappointed...

POWERBOMB 04-09-01 11:21 PM

Didn't see much of Raw tonight. I still miss WCW. I thought Raw had to many "trips down memory lane" with all the video clips. I thought I was watching another damn MTV special. The matches were ho-hum. Jericho and Benoit should have been better, the main event should have been better and who decided to let Linda have so much mic time?

Without competition, why press so hard to put in a great show. Next weeks main event: Big Boss Man vs. Big Show to see who is indeed the "Biggest" man in the WWF. :D

Jackskeleton 04-10-01 01:29 AM

Linda's announcement was plain and simply pointless.

and the flash backs were too damn long. it was 40 minutes of recaps of what happened. i felt i was watching Jakked/metal. As for the main event... my poor lita. :(
the benoit/jericho team up had to be memoriable. :) walls of jericho with a crippler crossface. hee hee. classic.

them hardy fellas and their woman got rocked.

Yeah, maybe they will do an evening gown match at Backlash or something!!!

Dr. DVD 04-10-01 06:16 PM

I would love an evening gown match between the two :)
Seriuosly, I am now starting to feel the repercussions of the WWF no longer competing directly with WCW. Hope the shows don't go further downhill.

Marvdog 04-10-01 10:26 PM

I thought that Regal as Special ref was great! Im a little glad that I didn't go to this show (was thinking about it)they showed way to much recap stuff, which made the fans in house upset.

HN 04-11-01 01:47 AM

how 'bout when Angle decided to push Big Show when UT and Kane were kicking ass. "Come on guys let's get him!" rotfl

I can't wait until the XFL ends so they don't waste TV time on their XFL promos. Plus where are the wrestling matches? It's all promos and talk. Raw is going downhill
