Dizamn.

I was not expecting that to happen.

So what's gonna happen? Smackdown needs the WWE Championship (I can't see Batista getting traded to Raw to balance it out) and I don't think Cena will be losing it for awhile. So I just really have to think that he'll be traded back like Trippers was last year, but not till the end of the draft.

But still, dizamn. I'm diggin this draft thing already.

EDIT: http://www.wwe.com/superstars/raw/

Good attention to detail (But Cena's star is still blue - proving my point even more)

EDIT: Nope. His star isn't blue anymore, now it's red, too. I still think he'll be back on Smackdown before too long though...

and when he does... and says "The champ is here" it'll get a cuh-razy pop.

No reason for another draft thread. Please merge.

Might the WWE liquidate Smackdown, restart ECW, and transform Raw into WWE and Smackdown into ECW?

Still wondering where you heard that, but with Cena going to RAW tonight, it starts to look true.

Cena rippin' on Christian when he was in the Brood with Gangrel was freakin' classic!

Didn't hear it anywhere. Just an outlandish theory of mine that, while still highly unlikely, has taken one gigantic step further to becoming reality...and I hadn't even originally anticipated Cena being moved to Raw in the draft.

Just wait untill you see who goes to Smackdown! this week.

I'm gonna copy my rant from a different board, here, just to hear y'all's opinions. Maybe I'm indulging in Bombsell-esque paranoia, but the more I think about it, the more it makes sense. Please, please someone step up and prove why this couldn't happen.

What started worrying me is this; is Cena the next HHH jobber? Think about it - they decide Batista is too hot to lose to Trippers, so he gets to keep the WHC, and they CANT do another HHH/Tista rematch. It's impossible. The fans would riot (I don't know why they don't already... but... hey.... whatever).

So HHH is stuck without a title. Now what? He needs him his gold, or else he won't be able to feel like a true man. Well, the answer is simple! Rob Smackdown of it's champion, and destroy Cena's career by making him come to Raw and then job to HHH just when he was really hitting his stride.

This way, even though 'Tista is the WHC, HHH can still continue to main event Raw PPVs by defending the WWE title at them. Ghostal said HHH has main evented every Raw PPV, so if Batista keeps the WHC, like he should, then HHH needs some new way to keep that up.

Christ, I know it's a horrible thought. Surely, surely, HHH isn't such a bastard that he would destroy the whole company just so he could stay the champ? Right, Right? If this went down, it would make Batista's title reign irrelevant. It might very well ruin Cena's career. Smackdown ratings would plummet. So would Raw's, for that matter.

Wrestling Armageddon may very well be upon us. (and not the PPV, like... the actual end of the wrestling world)

Be afraid.

Simple fix to this problem. Someone needs to accidently injure HHH. My hope is this Hell in the Cell he wanted ends up being his last match. A goofed Batistabomb breaks HHH's neck or something equally not nice.

HHH to Smackdown Please.

HHH to early retirement please. It's about time this guy is banned from wrestling for good. Maybe Steph will start dating other wrestlers before long and her daddy can stop his infatuation with Trips and have him job to Spike Dudley in a retirement match. I am sure the rating for that will skyrocket. Imagine the whole arena full of people chanting "Na Na Na Na.. Hey Hey Hey.. Gooood Byyyyeee"

Yeah I can dream can't I?

Ravage · Post by **Ravage** » Thu Jun 09, 2005 12:39 pm

Injury is more likely to happen.

Well wait, given how Steph seems maybe she would find another wrestler too.

Tempest · Post by **Tempest** » Fri Jun 10, 2005 5:26 pm

I'd rather have the ****er job to Johnny Nitro for a month then get an injury.

Yes, I hate him that much ...

Ravage · Post by **Ravage** » Sat Jun 11, 2005 3:40 am

Yes but Nitro would be only a month and injury would be hopefully forever. Unless Vince is dumb enough to make him the 6 million dollar wrestler....

I was hoping, I was praying, and for once, my prayers were answered.

The Man, the Myth, the Legend is on RAW!!!!!!!

Well, at least they are moving stars to the different shows this time around.

Since I forget how do the cool same font color white background thing. Don't read past this point.

Ok I warned you

Orton! That is all.

RAVAGE!

Spoiler Alert! Discuss it if you want, but don't put it in the title so it's unavoidable!

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn Youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!!!!!

Ravage · Post by **Ravage** » Wed Jun 15, 2005 6:21 pm

Ahh crap in a hat sorry

I forget not everyone here reads Rajah in advance

Ignavus · Post by **Ignavus** » Wed Jun 15, 2005 6:31 pm

eh, it's cool, no worries. I wasn't gonna visit any boards between now and SD anyway, but I forgot.

Interesting that Orton's on SD now, though. I may be the only one left, but I'm still an Orton fan. Here's hopin for an Orton/Taker rematch, where Orton actually wins!
