Raw Preview 12.29.08
Tonight's WWE Raw marks the final episode of 2008 before the WWE divas, superstars and fans ring in the New Year, 2009. The episode also marks the continuation of the "Race to the Rumble" in which four competitors will square off in a Fatal Fourway match. JBL, Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho and Randy Orton will be amongst those competing for a chance to become #1 Contender for John Cena's World Heavyweight title. Last week saw JBL win thanks to Shawn Michael's interference in the match. Michaels yanked JBL out from the ring before Rey Mysterio could deliver a 619 on him. Outside the ring, HBK looked JBL in the eyes, then slapped him in the face. The referee quickly awarded JBL the win due to the interference. Now JBL and his (former?) employee will be a part of this four man match. How will these two operate during the Fatal Fourway? Will Rey Mysterio return to get revenge on Michaels?
The four competitors in tonight's Fourway are no strangers to title reigns or matches against John Cena. Both Randy Orton and Chris Jericho have held either the World Heavyweight or WWE titles during 2008. Both men have also faced John Cena during the past year, but only Orton has emerged victorious. On a final note, Jericho made his return to the WWE and immediately went after Orton, claiming he would "save US" from Randy Orton. The two engaged in a feud from there with Randy Orton able to successfully defend his WWE title. Jericho of course held the World Heavyweight title prior to Cena's return, twice. At Survivor Series John Cena was able to defeat Jericho in his return to the WWE. JBL and Jericho have also had their feud, as have Michaels and Jericho. Which of these four men will have what it takes to win the Fatal Fourway and go on to challenge Cena at the Rumble in 09?
Two other title holders on Raw look to continue their winning ways into 2009. Beth Phoenix, "The Glamazon", continues to dominate her fellow WWE divas on Raw. Beth's successfully defeated the likes of Mickie James, Candice Michelle and now looks to her latest challenger, Melina Perez. The two continue to move ahead on an eventual collision course. Will a match be scheduled for the Women's Championship at the Rumble? Raw's current reigning King, William Regal, holds the Intercontinental title as we head towards 2009. However, CM Punk won the Intercontinental Championship Chase to become the #1 Contender. Will Punk and Regal be set to square off soon? What sort of tricks will the reigning King of the Ring and his gal pal Layla have in store to gain an advantage on Punk?
