WWE Monday Night Raw Results 6/16/08 Raw Begins with the fireworks and the world is watching. JR and King introduce us live from Salt Lake City. Out comes John Cena to begin the show (apple doo the beginning of his theme song says apple doo and it makes me think of apple jacks). Cena receives a large ovation as the opening wrestler. John is fired up for his time to talk. He speaks about the history of the wwe and the moments that have occurred in the past. Hulk Hogan slamming Andre the Giant, Shawn Michaels boyhood dream coming true, and Stonecold opening up his first can of whoop-ass. He states that at night of champions there will be another moment when one man stands tall in the center of the ring with his hand raised in victory and says THE CHAMP IS HEEEE…. Triple H’s music cuts him off before he finishes it. Behold the King…The king of kings. Triple H makes his way down the ramp. JR says by golly the wwe champion is here. Triple H tells Cena He is right it will be a moment no one will forget and he has been trying to tell himself it is not personal but is having trouble. Last week Cena cost him the match with Jeff hardy and he is laying out a warning and he won’t be warned twice. If Cena gets in HHH face and in his business it will get real personal real fast. Cena says wait a second you seem to have no trouble knocking me off the announcer table last week. HHH “First of all john no one said that you should stand on the table and act like a prima donna. I did you a favor because you are so uncoordinated you would have probably fallen off the damn thing anyway.” Cena, “ haha laugh at the big dumb animal but the last time you were in the ring with me I made you tap.” HHH,” That was two years ago John and a lot has changed.” Cena “ whoa whoa whoa nothing has changed two years ago everyone was talking about HHH and John Cena and here we are today still the main attraction in this business.” HHH, “NO something has changed and now I am the WWE Champion.” Cena, “ Even with that’ championship it still don’t mean a damn thing because until you beat me you don’t’ amount to anything Look at ya you walk around on your high horse calling yourself the measuring stick until you beat me you’re nothing.” HHH “ you know john it is going to be a long tough night for you that night cuz I know how you hate to disappoint your fans…but on the plus side not many of your fans will get to see that match because it will probably be on past their bedtimes anyway.” Just to make things easier for ya maybe we could get you a foam belt to wear around to ease the pain for ya a little bit.” Cena pushes HHH and takes off the shirt. HHH throws his shirt drops the belt and McMahon’s’ money money money theme hits. McMahon states the two of them they will not fight tonight they will fight at night of champions. He talks about the million dollars given away stating the password is…. watch raw and win. He tasks Cena if he will win his match tonight one on one with the Samoan bulldozer Umaga and it is a street fight. This match starts now. John Cena vs. Umaga () Street fight) JR introduces the Samoan bulldozer the three hundred and fifty pounder. They talk about the draft and who will be left on the raw roster. Cena attacks right away but gets caught with an uppercut. Umaga counters the sunset flip to no avail. Cena takes Umaga up for the slam but Umaga falls across his chest. Cena rolls to the apron. Umaga charges and launches Cena off the apron into the guardrail as we go to a commercial. I love the big show commercial for In Plain Sight. H e seems so real handing her that chair. Back on raw the two are up the ramp in the3 street fight. Lots of rights and lefts and soup bones being thrown until Cena charges and gets hit with a Samoan drop on the Steele. (Looked like it hurt something awful) Umaga drags Cena back up the ramp by one arm. Umaga sits Cena against the ring post as he backs away..Oh no. Cena moves and Umaga goes back first into the ring post. Cena grabs a mic and we are back in the ring. Mic off the face of Umaga Cena comes off the top with a cross body and Umaga catches him with the spinning sambo slam. Umaga receives the first two count. Cena gets the boot up in the corner but runs out into a massive clothesline from Umaga. Umaga has dominated the match thus far. Cena gets a reversal but is easily met with another reversal from Umaga. Umaga grabs a Steele chair from ringside. Cena grabs the chair and a shot to umaga’s ribs and hits the flashback and the leg drop to the back of the head off the top. Cena looking FU but falls face first as his legs shake and buckle under the pressure. The damage was too much for Cena to hold Umaga long enough. Umaga takes Cena into the Steele steps and they almost fly in to the crowd haha that’s a great parting gift for a fan. Umaga rolls Cena into the ring and gets another two count. Jr speaks of Cena perseverance. Umaga chunks the Steele steps into the ring. Umaga has the steps up high but Cena catches Umaga with the FU!!! Into the three count. I don’t’ remember the last match that Umaga actually won. I hope he gets traded to smackdown where he can actually win sometimes. I also hope that he learns a language soon. McMahon is out and is picking the first winner. JR says blame it on the river referring to salt LAKE haha. The first guy is Denzel or D oh my goodness says Dee gets the right password and says his favorite animal is a dog. Dee’s impression of a dog is terrible it sounded like he was sneezing but he won 125,000 dollars wow. I was hoping my phone would ring. Vince introduces summertime bikini blowout. Bikini blowout Maria out followed by Eve Torres and a commercial A draft commercial is shown and I think JR is right about the announcers being included in the draft. That’s is just plain silly Back on Raw the ladies are in the ring with Charlie Haas. They show the recap of last Monday and I don’t understand why Charlie Haas is not a fan of kissing divas. Haas is talking about something I didn’t know that he still worked for them until last week. I guess Mcing the bikini contest is better than not being on raw. The first contestant is Melina…they each get 15 seconds to dance. Melina does a pretty good job I guess. Maryse is up next to dance. Lena Yada is out and has a white bikini and king wants to wear Lena’s bikini.. Layla is out and dances it up . Jillian is next and stops the music to sing a song…. Haas cuts her off and moves to Eve and last is Maria. The winner is too many contestants to tell who is getting the best until Maria who gets more airtime as a face so of course she wins. Jillian had the most heat. Eve slapped Maria on the rear as she celebrated. McMahon calls someone else. I wonder if Mr. McMahon is thinking of taking ed mcmahon’s job. Mike answers has the password for 100,000. Vince asks whom the most handsome and well-known individual ever born in NC was? Mike answers Ric Flair. Vince says No. I guess he is from North Carolina. Jr confirms my thought because he knows all. Back on Raw Jericho is backstage talking to some lady. They show a recap of last Monday’s highlight reel. Jericho and Shawn will have a fantastic match when it comes down to it. Jericho dominated Shawn with that Jeritron and the recap footage was awesome. Jericho will speak tonight. McMahon is choosing another winner with a very special individual…Hacksaw Jim Duggan in a tux and his 2X4 is in a tux. USA chants started by Duggan. Hacksaw doesn’t know how to use a phone haha. HO!!!!!! No one answered McMahon Leaves a message telling him he had a chance to win 50,000.Thhisy ritoe is Degeneration X. aweoom. Jesse answers and knows the password. 50,00 richer. Jesse is hardcore DX and imitates Duggan with the HO!!. Jeff hardy makes his way to the ring. Coming off of a big win over HHH last week lets see how he holds up tonight. Jeff Hardy vs. Carlito The two lock up to start things off and a cheap shot from Carlito to receive the first upper hand. Carlito goes for the second rope slingshot moonsault and lands on his feet after missing hardy. Hardy tosses Carlito over the top and slingshots crossbody over the top to the floor. Hardy is caught on the apron on the way in and is hung on the top rope and Carlito hits a swinging neck breaker. Good spot. Carlito with a drop kick and gets a two count. Carlito still in control and applies a chin lock. The crowd is behind hardy as he tries to elbow out. Carlito pulls the hair to stop the reversal and hits several southpaw punches to the head of hardy followed by a running reverse elbow. Now Carlito has hardy in a surfboard submission. Hardy feeling the crowd and gets a boot to hardy with the reverse mule kick and goes for the big seated dropkick in the corner but Carlito dodges. Hardy crashes and Carlito gets a two count. Hardy hits the seated Jawbreaker. But Carlito gets the upper hand with a tree of woe he goes for a dropkick but hardy raises Carlito barely misses crotching the ring post and gives a hail Mary for good measure to thank his lucky stars. Good improve for Carlito. Hardy up top hits the whisper in the wind for a two count. Front face suplex from hardy and up top for the Swanton bomb. Carlito up and goes back stabber but gets caught with the twist of fate and hits the Swanton bomb for the three count. Excellent match from these two Carlito does so well to not ever win. He should start a tag team with Umaga. McMahon money time. The call is placed Kyle answers the phone. Kyle gets the password. Kyle has to sing part of the national anthem terribly I would have actually requested Jillian. 175000 dollars. Y2J makes his way to the ring He has some splaining to do. Over the last week Jericho says he has noticed the way people are looking at him differently and asking how could you do that to Shawn Michaels. Recap shown again of Y2J last week. Jericho states it is Déjà Voo as the crowd boos an honest man. Jericho says it wasn’t his fault (my god this isn’t Jericho it’s Snitsky!). Jericho says that the people don’t’ deserve to be saved because they connect with a backstabbing hypocrite like Michaels. Jericho is here to save himself from every one of us. He goes on to bring down the crowd and states he doesn’t need or want cheers anymore. Some big girl in a cowboy hat bo0os and thumb downs Jericho. It was pretty funny she had on a cowboy hat haha. Jericho says Michael’s blood is in our hands. Jericho calls Shawn Michaels out right now. The crowd chants HBK. Shawn isn’t coming out tonight because he is a coward, worm, liar, and a miserable excuse…..WOOOOOO Natch is BACK styling and profiling. My god!! JR just wet himself!! Commercial Flair and Jericho are in the ring nose to nose. Flair asks what Jericho has to say now. Flair tells Jericho to shut up. Flair says he can’t wrestle anymore but challenges Jericho to a fight in the parking lot right now. Drops the elbow on the coat and leaves the ring telling Jericho to come on (you can tell when Flair means business because he punishes his wardrobe). Jericho follows flair out the back. We lost the duo with the cameras. Flair says outside you and me outside right now Jericho follows and runs into the game outside the door. HHH says don’t you think you've caused enough problems ever since you have come back to save us Chris I’ve been looking for a reason to make you my business. Jericho says now you got to fight everyone’s battles for them. HHH says I’m not fighting anyone’s battles I just want to fight Chris Jericho. Commercial Flair and HHH are in the back. Flair is talking to McMahon as they shake hands. Vince tells flair that he cannot have him in the building interrupting the show. HHH gives flair a hug as he is escorted out of the building. HHH asks Vince what his problem is. Vince says he has none but HHH does he is going one on one tonight with Chris Jericho. Holly and Rhodes are in the ring and out come Crime Time. Holly and Rhodes vs. Crime Time TD makes his way to the ring and distracts crime time as holly gets the rollup for the three count. Quickest match ever. I’m sure the return of Michael PS I’m a racist Hayes had nothing to do with this booking. McMoney time again Becky answers the phone in honor of Flair he is giving her 16 dollars poor girl. That’s what you get for being from North Carolina. Commercial Recap of Burchill and Kennedy match from last week. Burchill and Katie are in the ring and out comes Mickie James the women’s champion. Kennedy! Kennedy is going to be huge he Is more popular by the day and becomes a better wrestler minute by minute. Mr. Kennedy and Mickie James vs. Paul Burchill and Katie Lee Burchill and Kennedy start by locking up the rights come immediately. Burchill works Kennedy with clotheslines and uppercuts but is caught with a back body drop. Kennedy has Burchill in the corner and the ref has to push him out. Burchill receives the upper hand and puts Kennedy in a cross face chicken wing. Kennedy attempts to fight out but is leveled with a powerful clothesline for a two count. Back into the submission cross face chicken wing. Both girls are cheering their man on. Kennedy begins to fight out until he catches a knee to the temple. Irish whip into the corner and Kennedy gets two boots up and catches Burchill with the big boot kick as Paul is leaned on the ropes. Katie tags herself in and Mickie comes in with a slap The two girls roll around exchanging punches and Mickie finally gets the upper hand with a couple of clotheslines and forearms and the Irish whip is reversed into the neck breaker and Mickie connects with a dropkick to the face for a two count. James heads up top as Paul makes his way towards her. Kennedy comes flying across the ring and hits a spear through the ropes as both men fly out of the ring. Very impressive move.

She does not stop talking at all. McMahon asks of all the superstars who is the most handsome man she answers with Mr. McMahon 174,984 for Alana.

JR and king are running down Night of Champions Miz and Morrison against Finlay and Hornswaggle tag gold Edge vs. Batista Heavyweight champion Kane vs. Big Show ECW Title HHH vs. John Cena WWE Title King just informed that McMahon would give away 300,00000 tonight Cena tells HHH good luck don’t get hurt.

The ref lays out the rules and rings the bell. Lock up into a side headlock and a big running shoulder block by the game. Jericho is holding his head. Jericho sucks chants fill the arena. Jericho takes the upper hand in the corner with boots and rights and lefts and the ref has to force Jericho out. The game comes back with rights inn the corner for Jericho. Jericho face first into the turnbuckle and is Irish whipped into a back body drop. Jericho comes back with more rights and an Irish whip to the ring post as we go to commercial. Jericho comes back with a reverse elbow to stop the game as we come back. During the break Jericho hit an enziguri to receive the upper hand. Jericho attacks the game outside using the Steele steps to his advantage. Jericho slaps the back of H’s head telling him to come on. They head back into the ring as the match continues the Game regains the upper hand. Lance Cade enters the ring to attack HHH (talk about a curveball). Jericho is disqualified for his interference as the two begin to pummel the game. Cena runs out to try and make the save for the game. Cena tries to overcome but is out numbered two on one. As the two continue the beating Cade hits the Cade bomb on Cena while Y2J delivers the code breaker to HHH. The evil duo stand tall over the fallen heroes as Raw goes off the air. (I am guessing that next week John Cena and Triple H team to take on the new duo of Jericho and Cade can Cena and H overcome their differences for one night to focus on the task at hand or will Cade and Jericho be able to capitalize on the two giant egos not being able to coexist.) See you next week for the Draft!!! Its time to shake things up. Signing off A wrestling (reporter) god. Branden Harvey
