RAW opens with a quick recap of Shawn Michaels and
Hogans tag match and the subsequent sweet chin
music.
The show starts with Carlito entering the ring with
his IC title over his shoulder for Carlitos Cabana.
Though its worth mentioning hes in his wrestling
gear with a shirt over the top. He pushes RAW and his
match with Shelton Benjamin. He talks about Hogan
being on the Cabana last week and introduces HBK, but
Y2Js music hits and Jericho enters the ring.
Y2J chants quietly fill the arena. Carlito and
Jericho banter back and forth about their competing
mini-talk shows. Jericho tries to take over and turn
it into the Highlight Reel. Carlito stops it fm
happening and tells Jericho hes old and fat. Love
handles, thats not cool. Jericho responds saying
hes cool - hes Canadian. And calls Carlito Side
Show Bob. Jericho again talks down Carlitos show
and tries to take over again, and calls himself the
Johnny Carson of RAW. Y2J announces HBK and Rowdy
Roddy Pipers music plays and Piper comes down the
ramp. Piper rips apart both shows and says his show
is the original as he flicked his sporran (the
tasseled piece on the front of his kilt - known to be
quite the Scottish insult). Piper says hes the one
who will be interviewing HBK. He will have the
answers to all the questions because Michaels will be
in Pipers Pit.
Quick recap of Cena doing a signing in Japan.
Chris Masters music plays as we come back from
commercial. Looks like hes wrestling in an actual
match. A quick recap of Tajiri green misting Masters
two weeks previous. And of course the match is
against Tajiri.
Masters takes a quick lead with lots of punches and
hits, but Tajiri comes back with his amazing feet.
ECW chants erupt and Tajiri keeps control. Tajiri
gets a few near falls on Masters but missed the
tarantula and gets overpowered and stuck in the
Masterlock. The match is ended by the ref when Tajiri
is unresponsive in Masters signature hold.
Flash to the back showing HBK entering the arena and
pouring coffee.
Back from commercial and Coach is talking about how
Kane will be joining many stars at the San Diego Comic
Convention.
Edge, Lita and Snitsky are backstage watching the
wedding video from a few weeks previous. They talk
about Kane and how Edge has a match tonight with Kane
and how Snitsky has a foot fetish. Edge offers Litas
feet for help in his match with Kane. Snitsky almost
licks Litas feet but Edge stops him saying he wont
get paid until he does the work.
JR declares parental discretion before they show the
end of the Hell In The Cell match between HHH and
Batista. They showed HHH being led bloody from the
Cell.
Return from commercial to the Slam of The Week.
Shelton hitting the turnbuckle by Carlito when Shelton
lost his IC title.
Carlito is in the ring and Benjamin soon follows.
Benjamin gets the early lead with a series of punches
and knees into a quick cover that amounts to nothing.
Carlito chops Benjamin which only eggs him on for
another two near falls. Carlito nails a standing
dropkick and Benjamin bounces back up to beat on
Carlito some more. A baseball slide sends Carlito to
the outside and the show to another commercial.
We return to find Benjamin in a sleeper hold. He
fights out, but Carlito keeps control of the match.
Fighting goes to the outside and Benjamin gets thrown
into the barrier. Back in the ring Carlito stops
Benjamin. The follows up with a couple of hard
elbows, but is unable to get the three count. Carlito
keeps control and keeps trying choke type holds, but
is unable to get a three. A DDT almost finishes
Benjamin. But Benjamin is able to get off a modified
neck breaker and the tides turn. Carlito tries to
hold the tights for a three count - but is unable to
finish it. Though Carlito does keep control until he
gets a spinning heel kick that knocks him off the
apron. Carlito picks up the belt and walks away at
the 8 count. He gets DQd, but retains his title.
Outback shows Cena and Bischoff arguing at a
distance. Then Cena storms off. Commercial.
WWE Rewind shows us last weeks Highlight Reel and the
fight between Cena and Y2J.
Cenas music plays and he enters the ring as the
crowd goes wild. Cena does his regular shtick to get
the crowd pumped. He says hes having a bad day due
to Bischoff calling him a disgrace and Jericho saying
he kicked Cenas ass last week. Cena keeps calling
him Y2Cheap. Cena calls out Jericho, but Bischoffs
music hits. The GM enters the ring looking rather
pissed. Bischoff gets a$$hole chants from the crowd.
Bisch tells Cena he defends the title when he says,
not when Cena wants to. Because Cena didnt kiss his
a$$ from the beginning - Bischoff is going to give him
a hard time. Cena wont take his crap. Then Y2Js
music hits, but Bischoff stops Chris before he comes
down the ramp. Bischoff calls Cena a thug and gets
cut off for his words. Bischoff announces a title
match at SummerSlam between Cena and Y2J - mixed
response from the audience. Jericho kisses Bischoffs
butt then tells Cena hes going to take his title and
calls him a disgrace. Jericho continues to cut down
Cena and tooting his own horn. Cena cuts another
Cheap promo on Jericho. Cena again calls out
Jericho. Jericho takes off his jacket, but doesnt
enter the ring. He predicts hes going to win at
SummerSlam. They then stare each other down. Then
Cena turns back on Bischoff and rips him a new one.
Cena goes after Bisch and gives him the FU.

home. Alexis was cut and the crowd sounded unhappy
about it.

naked boobies last week - she gives him a crotch shot

Cameron dances and strips for Christy on a chair. She
kisses Christy on the cheek. He girls gyrate a little
more then commercial.
Kirt Angles music is playing as the show returns.
Angle enters the ring with a couple of cops holding
his gold medal. Guess they are still doing the Angle
Invitational. The local hero comes into the ring
cautiously. His name is Matt Martel. Angle called
him on it and said his name is really Striker, a
teacher who called in sick to wrestle. Angle wrestled
him in Philly when he said he was from Philly. Angle
beat him down, at first. Then Striker took over and
beat on Angle. Angle got tossed on the outside and
took a while to get back in. When the ref had his
back turned Striker got Angle with a crotch shot.
Angle finally got the ankle lock on and made Striker
tap out with one second remaining.
Grisham approached Kane in the back asking him his
thoughts on the match tonight. Kane just laughed and
laughed. Then we saw Edge getting attacked by Matt
Hardy in the back. Then Hardy ran out. It was all
very quick. Does this mean Hardys back? Commercial.
Edges music hits as the show returns. He enters
with Lita. Kane then enters staring through the pair.
Kane takes control right off. But then Edge takes
over. The fight goes back and forth. Kane drops Edge
and goes after Lita. Snitsky gets involved and caused
the DQ. Kane and Snitsky fight into the crowd. Edge
is standing in the ring and gets attacked by Matt
Hardy. Security breaks them up and Matt gets out of
the ring. Matt grabs a mic and calls Lita a whore and
tells off Edge and tells WWE to kiss his ass. The
police then arrest Matt and take him out. This does
not look like it was planned, at all. But this is the
WWE, so you never know. Commercial.
Recap of last week Hogan and HBK to set up for
Pipers Pit. Pipers music hits and he enters the
ring. Commercial.
Piper immediately introduces HBK who enters the ring
wearing all white. The crowd boos him heartily. HBK
talks about how much heart hes put into wrestling and
how hes done so much to shape wrestling. HBK decided
a the Hall of Fame ceremony when everyone wanted one
more match for Hogan - HBK wanted it to be with him.
He doesnt see Hogan as wonderful as the rest of the
world does. He challenges Hogan to a match at
SummerSlam. He wants to show that immortality has a
price. Piper takes HBK down a notch verbally saying
the fans made HBK, not the other way around. Piper
chokes up telling HBK he was worth it, but is now
ashamed of him. He calls HBK a coward and gets sweet
chin music for his troubles. HBK stares for a
moment, then leaves the ring the way he did last week
with Hogan. The a$$hole chants were so clear the
network cut the sound for a few moments. Then Shawn
left the ring and walks up the ramp.
