Raw Preview 09.08.08

Last night's Unforgiven Pay-Per-View saw the biggest surprise of the night in the World Heavyweight Championship Scramble match. The surprise was that CM Punk, was not even a participant. JBL, Batista, Rey Mysterio and Kane still battled for the title, with Chris Jericho being Punk's replacement. Jericho had been badly beaten earlier in the night by Shawn Michaels in their match, but Y2J capitalized on a fallen Kane to score the final pinfall of the match. Jericho's golden opportunity now has given him the World Heavyweight title. What will Jericho have to say regarding his title victory? What will CM Punk's response be to the way his title was lost?

CM Punk was taken out of the Championship Scramble by GM Mike Adamle after Punk was attacked backstage. Punk was declared ineligible to compete due to injuries. The attack came from the World Tag team champs and their new "helper". It now appears a new stable has formed with Ted Dibiase and Cody Rhodes aligning themselves with the Legend Killer, Randy Orton, and a fourth wrestler named "Manu". What will the brand new alliance have in store for the rest of Raw's roster? Will Kofi Kingston and CM Punk respond to their attackers?

Shawn Michaels also displayed anything but forgiveness at Unforgiven. Michaels gave Chris Jericho an unmerciful beatdown in their Unsanctioned Match, finally causing the ref to call for the bell. The ruthlessness displayed by Michaels was something that hasn't been seen from the Heartbreak Kid in some time. What will Michaels' next move be with WWE? Is Michaels now done wrestling, or does the Showstopper have more in store?
