Raw Preview 04.20.09
Just a week ago, the 2009 WWE Draft added and subtracted many superstars on the WWE Raw roster. Notably, WWE Womens Champion Melina, Intercontinental Champ Rey Mysterio, Kane and Chris Jericho were all drafted over to Smackdown where they will now appear on Friday nights. All was not lost though, as Raw has gained plenty of new members for its roster including US Champion MVP, Divas Champion Maryse and the WWE Champion, Triple H. For weeks now, Triple H has been involved in a bitter feud with Randy Orton and Legacy, which will lead up to another match at the Backlash PPV. That match will see Orton and Legacy team up to face Batista, Shane McMahon and Triple H in a WWE Championship six man tag match. If any member of Legacy pins anyone on HHH's team, Triple H officially loses his WWE title. Before that goes down, The Game and the Legend Killer are scheduled to face one another in a "No DQ" match on tonight's Raw. These two wrestlers have had some grueling matches and encounters in the past, but how will they fare in tonight's contest? Will Legacy, Batista or Shane McMahon become involved?
The WWE Raw roster has added several interesting new wrestlers via this past week's regular and supplemental draft. The Miz and MVP were both drafted to Raw from Smackdown and ECW respectively, possibly boosting their status under the spotlight on Monday nights. Also amongst the Raw locker rooms will be the unified tag team champions, The Colons, as well as the beautiful twin WWE divas, The Bella Twins. Also joining them will be the smallest competitor amongst them all; Hornswoggle. Hornswoggle was officially separated from his father Finlay, who is still an active member on ECW. With these new names in the mix on Raw, what will be in store for them next? Will someone else adopt Hornswoggle? Will a new tag team step up to challenge The Colons?
On last week's show, John Cena had an entertaining and exciting battle against the ECW Champion Jack Swagger. Even though no titles were on the line, both men put on a championship caliber matchup, with Cena able to make Swagger eventually tap out for the victory. Cena's win scored another draft pick for Raw, and that pick was of course, Triple H. As Cena was shocked staring down at Triple H on the ramp, the Rated-R Superstar, Edge, decided to sneak into the ring for the attack. Cena was able to turn things around, but the World Heavyweight Champion will need to gain focus on tonight's show, as he'll be defending his title against Edge at Backlash. Will Edge decided to make another appearance, or will Vickie Guerrero have a special match in store for Cena prior to Backlash?
Tune in to Monday Night Raw, tonight at 9PM EST on USA for all the action!
