Official WWE RAW Preview: Night of Champions Fallout

matt@iscribelimited.com (Rock Bottoms) — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 15:41:30 EST

Here is the official WWE Raw preview for tonight, courtesy of WWE.com...

During last weekâs Draft, WWE Champion Triple H was randomly selected to SmackDown, taking his title with him.

On Sunday night, John Cena had a chance to bring the title back to Raw, but was unable to defeat The Game. Similarly, Batista attempted to win Edgeâs World Heavyweight Championship, but couldnât come out on top against the Master Manipulator.

Another Raw Superstar that suffered a devastating loss at Night of Champions was Chris Jericho, defending his title against surprise opponent, Kofi Kingston. Y2J and the capacity crowd in Dallas were shocked as the Jamaican Superstar made a huge splash in his first match since joining the Raw roster.

Another surprise entrance was made by Shawn Michaels, who was unable to compete due to an eye injury. HBK distracted Jericho long enough for Kingston to take control of the match, pinning Y2J. Following the match, Y2J took brutal revenge against HBK, assaulting him outside the ring.

With the Intercontinental Championship acting as Rawâs main singles title, will Kingston and his unorthodox style be able to hang onto the championship? And what is in store for Chris Jericho when HBK returns to in-ring competition?

One of Night of Championsâ biggest surprises came during the World Tag Team Championship Match. For weeks, Ted DiBiase had promised to win the gold from champions Hardcore Holly & Cody Rhodes, along with the help of his mystery partner.

On Sunday, the mystery partner was revealed to be Rhodes, who turned on Holly, and helped DiBiase make good on his promise to win a championship in his first WWE match. Why would Rhodes turn against his partner and mentor, and what steps will Hardcore Holly take to get revenge?

While multiple championships changed hands Sunday night, Mr. McMahonâs condition was still unknown following a bizarre accident last week on Raw.

At the end of the evening, the stage on which the WWE Chairman stood on collapsed, followed by a ton of lighting equipment crashing down on him, incapacitating Mr. McMahon and causing Million Dollar Mania to be indefinitely suspended.

When the McMahon family gives a statement this Monday on Raw, what will we learn about the Chairmanâs condition, and how will the landscape of sports-entertainment be affected in Mr. McMahonâs absence?

Jim Ross Comments on Upcoming Draft Lottery

In his latest blog entry, Jim Ross commented on the event that officials hope will help WWE RAW with its faltering ratings: the draft lottery.

Here's what he had to say:

It will be a big night in San Antonio on June 23 as the, apparent, Annual WWE Draft will be held during a three hour Monday Night Raw. I am interested in how the order of the draft will be determined and the process that will be utilized to make the selections.

I read where the TV announcers are also eligible for the draft, which is perplexing. I canât speak for the King, but I am personally not interested in leaving Monday Night Raw. I hope that I didnât just jinx myself. Working regularly on another broadcast would feel strange at this stage of my game.

Write in and let us know which wrestlers you hope to see switch brands and what you hope takes place at the draft lottery.

Here's an update regarding the ongoing Hulk Hogan divorce/affair story.

KUTV.com reports that Brooke Hogan has forgiven her father for sleeping with Christiane Plante. She recently wrote the following on her Myspace blog:

"Nothing is thicker than blood. No matter how angry, sad or depressed you are, your family will always love you no matter what. We are all human. Yes, I'm still hurting very deeply inside, but I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel.

"I know mistakes have been made. And I have no doubt there is major guilt that carries with that? But no mistake ever made in a persons life changes real love. We may not be a perfect family, we may not be living in a house together, but I'm positive we will all love each other till death. That's all that matters to me. You can have money, fame, cars, clothes, but you're naked without the people that love you."

The article also notes that Hulk Hogan's affair with Christiane Plante started over 12 months before his divorce from Linda.
