Raw GM, Smackdown & MITB updates
After watching Raw this past week and also checking in with some other fans, more theories are developing about who the "anonymous GM" is. Of course we got the key phrase clues "gimme a Hell Yeah" and "that's the bottom line because the GM said so" which lead many to believe it's Stone Cold. Of course that could be true, but it could also be another WWE curveball.
One possibility I've heard mentioned is that the GM is Abraham Washington. He was the talk show host from the now defunct ECW on SyFy. We haven't seen or heard much if anything from him since the ECW sent stars to Smackdown & Raw. He'd be the type to play a joke on everyone making it seem like it's Stone Cold. It's hard to imagine Stone Cold asking John Cena and Wade Barrett to shake hands and make up, that sounds more like something Abraham Washington would do. He also would want to make a big statement, which he has done without being on the air, yet.
We've now got the entire 8 man fields for the Smackdown MITB Ladder match at the upcoming PPV. Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler each qualified on the latest episode of the show. My money is on Drew McIntyre to win, or Christian to win MITB. I'm also willing to bet that we probably see one of the titles change hands with a MITB briefcase cash-in at the PPV. If I had to bet though, I'd go with the World Title changing hands based on Rey needing time off. There's also been a Women's Title match added to the PPV, with Kelly Kelly going against just Layla, who was the original champion.
The Raw MITB ladder match is tougher to predict because there's an open mystery spot right now. Could Wade Barrett take the spot, or maybe a returning Triple H? They may have had R-Truth ready to go for the match, then realized HHH was ready to come back and devised the whole injury story with Truth. It would be odd to see HHH carrying a Red briefcase around, but maybe he'll be the winner.
"Dashing" Cody Rhodes has a new entrance theme, but personally I liked his edgier hard rock theme song over this new pretty boy one. He's also got an interesting gimmick, a digital mirror that he admires himself in on the stage before heading down to the ring.
Kane is still trying to determine who attacked his brother, but what if it was Kane who took him out? Anyhow, Jack Swagger has until Friday night to prove it wasn't him who attacked Undertaker. That will make things interesting heading into Sunday's PPV, depending on who gets attacked.
