WWE: A NEW DIRECTION
Yeah I know I’m pretty unoriginal with the title, but bear with me. And I know I’m new, but that don’t mean squat. Well actually it does, but that’s beside the point.

Coming out of survivor series, the WWE is looking like it needs a reboot to the system. With its competition on the rise, it needs some new ideas to beef up its falling ratings and its diminishing reputation. But Vince always has some ideas up his sleeve, and this time is no different. Looking to make a splash, he sent out a memo stating he was “cleaning up” the Divas and reinstating the Cruiserweight championship. (Survivor Series results remain the same)

Kanefan4E · 11-25-2007, 01:04 AM

Best of luck dude!

**Invincible** · 11-25-2007, 01:22 AM

Best of luck from me as well. I like that you're keeping all the brands but it maybe a bit of a heavy workload on you

**Hoopstar** · 11-25-2007, 12:08 PM

Good luck. Somewhere down the road you may need to find a partner to handle three brands.

See that would be the smart thing to do. But I no smarty. I dum! I'm fine with handling three brands. My multitude of fans *snickers* will just have to wait.

Raw will be posted today.

Opening Video
Fireworks

JR: Welcome to Monday Night RAW at Fort Lauderdale, Florida! We have a very good show for you tonight as our main event is Shawn Michaels, the Heart Break Kid, and Jeff Hardy, The Man Who Will Not Die.

Jerry: Yes what a Main Event we have for you tonight. With HBK coming out of Survivor Series with a loss, even if he did almost take Randy Orton's head off, will Jeff Hardy be the one to suffer the consequences? Or will Jeff Hardy pull a rabbit out of his hat and pull an upset here today? We'll find out later tonight.

JR: But first, an announcement from Mr. McMahon

"No Chance in Hell" starts playing and Mr. McMahon comes down the ring in his signiture powerwalk, recieving a mixed reaction.

Mr. McMahon: Quiet down now.

Crowd quiets with the exception of a few idiots.

Mr. McMahon: Now then, I have some very important things to say about the Divas and the Cruiserweight Divisions of my establishment. The Diva Division lately has been....well...*hesitates for a moment* well it just plain sucks. Why Candice Michelle had to be taken out just for falling a few feet.

Recieves some heat

Mr. McMahon: Ahem. Well, I've decided that the Diva Division has to be...remodeled. Cause thats what they are right now, a bunch of models!

Mr. McMahon starts laughing at his own joke. Crowd is silent.

Mr. McMahon: Anyway, I have decided to send all of the Divas out to boot camp. We are sending them to *pauses for a moment* the dungeon. Thats right, the famous Hart Dungeon. Home to such greats as Edge *recieves heat*, Roddy Piper *mixed reaction* and Chris Jericho *crowd goes nuts. Mr. McMahon looks back at the ramp as if he is expecting something, but nothing happens*. Except this time its not going to be the woman's training that their used to. Its going to be the same that the men get, even harder than the men get. That means you won't see your precious divas for a long time. Their scheduled to be released beginning of next February. I have only chosen the best of the divas to go, and even then some of them might not make it.

Mixed Reaction from the crowd.

Mr. McMahon: As you know, Vickie Guerrero has decided to vacate the Cruiserweight championship. I have overridden that decision and am going to hold an open call for any wrestler that wants to compete in a six man tournement. On the next Smackdown, two of the wrestlers will compete. On the next week after that, two other wrestlers will compete. And then, the next week the final wrestlers will compete. The winners from all these matches will then go on to a triple threat match the Friday before Armageddon. The winner of that match and the wrestler who did not get pinned will then compete in a Cruiserweight Championship match-of the winner's choosing- at Armageddon. *chuckles and mutters* I tell ya, WWE is taking a new direction.

"No Chance in hell" comes on again and Mr. McMahon does his signiture powerwalk with a mixed reaction from the crowd.

Commercial Break

Backstage Scene

McMahon: Pleasure to have you with us.

Unknown figure not shown: Ha! You havn't even seen us. How'd you know were good? What if were the next Stone COld Steve Austin?

A huge pop from the fans

Unknown Figure #2: T-Man is kiddin' around with ya. We'll help you clean this place up.

McMahon: Very good...now go on get out.

You hear some shuffling of feet. Camera pans out to show Regal coming in.

McMahon: Aha! Regal! What is coming up next?

Camera darkens and shows a scene backstage with Rhodes and Holly.

Rhodes: Look I know my match is up next but I really don't need your help. I appreciate you teaching me and everything, but I want to take this match on by myself. Alright?

Holly just stares at Rhodes. Santino's theme music starts playing and Rhodes starts heading out, with Holly giving Rhodes a blank stare.

Back to the main floor

Jerry: Whats going on back there JR?

JR: I don't know Jerry. Who were the people that are going to "clean this place up"? I hope my job isnt affected by this.

Jerry: We have more important things to worry about. We have a match!

Santino is already in the ring. Rhodes comes out with a big pop from the fans. He does his entrance gimmick and steps into the ring.

Santino: Ha! Its Cody Rode! Still riding on your father's horse, the big American Dream, Dirty Rhodes? *recieves heat*

At that Cody punches Santino and the match begins. After about the first 3:00 minutes of a close match Santino starts running out of the ring. Cody runs after him and puts him back in the ring. At 7:35 Cody counters a grapple by Santino with a DDT, covering Santino for the 3 count. Cody looks out at the crowd with a smile, as it is his first decisive victory. Santino grabs his legs from behind, sending his head careening down on the ropes. Santino's music comes on and recieves heat as he walks out of the ring with Rhodes holding his neck and coughing.

Commercial Break

JR: What a match we had here, and RAW is just beginning. Now here's a strange combination. Up next we have Mr. Kennedy against The Game!

Jerry: I have to tell you, I don't think Kennedy is ready for a big time guy like HHH.

A loud scream of KENNEDY fills the arena. After Kennedy does his entrance, The Game plays and HHH does his entrance. The match starts and Kennedy is squashed through most of the match. At 5:30 HHH starts and Irish whip toward the ring post but Kennedy reverses it sending the game careening in the referee. After colliding with the ref, HHH groggily walks right into a low blow by Kennedy! Kennedy then Green Bay Plunges the game and covers for the three count.

JR: Well I would not want to be MR. Kennedy next week. HHH is going to be mad.

Jerry: But heres something we have to look forward to! Me interviewing the reigning champ Randy Orton next!

Commercial Break

[Segment begins with Randy Orton standing in the middle of the ring surrounded by heat. Jerry walks up and begins the interview.

Jerry: Well Randy, you did it. You beat the Heart Break Kid. How does it feel to have beaten him?

Randy: Well Jerry...not like I expected. You see, I thought it was going to be thrilling. Empowering. Everything that it wasn't. Instead it was humbling. For the first time this *Holds up his belt* means something. Instead of it being something that showed I was the best, it was something that needed to be proven. And that means that I have to stop cheating, lying, and backstabbi-

Sexy Boy starts playing and HBK comes down, recieving a mixed reaction.

HBK: Now wait just a minute! You expect me to believe that you have changed? Your still the same son of a bitch that I almost took the head off of. I don't believe that for a second. I want a rematch tonight!

Randy: You already have a match-

Suddenly the TV goes static. The Save_Us promo comes on and at the end, showing the Break_The_Walls_Down as a message for about 3 seconds, then slowly all the numbers and letters that were streaming come down to show the signiture pose of CHRIS JERICHO, recieving a huge pop.

And behold, Chris Jericho is at the top of the ramp, with his signiture pose.

Jericho: None of you, and I mean Nooooone of you, deserve anything in the presence of *pauses for a moment* me. I am the true form of excellence, no one can even compare to me. I deserve to be champion, because RAW IS JERICHO!

As Jericho receives a huge pop from the audience, HBK is furious. HBK, who is still on the ramp, turns and is about to superkick Jericho when Mr. McMahon comes out.

McMahon: Now wait just a minute. Michaels, you had your chance. *pauses for a second* Jericho, you have your championship match IF you can beat Randy Orton next week!

HBK looks furious. McMahon smiles and does his signiture powerwalk out of the arena. HBK turns and is about to superkick Jericho, but Jericho grabs his leg and trips him right onto the floor, and goes for the Walls of Jericho. Randy comes and breaks it up.
Commercial Break

Segment starts with The Hilanders and Cade and Murdoch already in the ring. The Ref calls for the start of the match and it turns into a squash match for the Hilanders. At one point Rory tries to turn the tides by throwing a chair into the ring but Murdoch comes out of no where to stop him. Cade wins with a bodyslam. Afterwards, Cade and Murdoch put out their hand to congradulate The Hilanders but instead the Hilanders pick up the chair and start pounding on Cade and Murdoch.

Commercial Break

JR: What unsportsmanlike conduct by the Hilanders!

Jerry: I like it! Sportsmanship are for people who are trying to get respect they don't deserve. You have to do what you have to do!

JR: I wish that made sense. But here is the match tonight, HBK versus Jeff Hardy!

"Loaded" comes on and Jeff Hardy comes out dancing. With his rock star entrance, he gets into the ring. "Sexy Boy" comes on and HBK comes out with mixed reactions because of his earlier actions. The match begins and its a slingslot match with both HBK and Jeff Hardy taking leads. At 15:14 HBK lands a sweet chin music on Hardy after an Irish whip to the ropes by Hardy. HBK goes for the cover. 1...2...NO! Jeff Hardy will not die and makes a comeback. HBK counters a grapple and careens Hardy into the ropes, but Hardy counters with a cross body on the bounce back. Hardy gets on the ring post and goes for the swanton bomb but does not connect. HBK puts Hardy in a sharpshooter, reminiscent of Survivor Series. Hardy gets to the ropes. HBK has a clean break and allows Hardy to get up but then connects with SCM. HBK with the cover...1...2...3! But whats this? HBK was on the ropes. But the ref did not see it and names HBK the winner and 17:18.

JR: Well thats it folks. Join us next week on raw when we'll be in North Carolina. See you then!

PREVIEW

Coming out of Survivor Series, GM Armando Estrada has issued a tag team match between CM Punk and Balls vs. Morrison and a mystery partner. Who will be the mystery partner? Find out tomorrow night on ECW!

Mr.Kennedy'sMic · 11-26-2007, 08:13 PM

ECW,for all you fans out there (ahem...none) will be up wednesday! Yay!

Mr.Kennedy'sMic · 11-28-2007, 11:32 PM

*Dont Question My heart*

*Pyro*

Joey: Welcome to ECW! What a show we have for you tonight!

Tazz: Thats right. Our main event is a tag team match between Punk and Balls vs Morrison and a mystery partner! What does our General Manager have in store for us?

Joey: Thats a good question Tazz. Everyone has their guesses. Now we hear from General Manager Armando Estrada.

Camara Pans over to Armando Estrada, who is already in the ring.

Estrada: The loyal fans of ECW...I have some very bad news. I-

*Through Fire and Flames*

Suddenly, a fairly musculer man comes out in a wife beater and jeans. He is rough with a heavy 5 o'clock shadow, fair skin, and long black hair.

Mystery Person: No, not bad news. How dare you talk about me without me being here!

Estrada:...I suppose it might be...folks, I have been asked to step down from my role as a general manager. this is your new General Manager. I will be taking a different role...though I don't know what.

Mystery Person: What? No introduction? What kind of crap is that? Well, you guys can call me #42. You...insects don't deserve to know my name.

recieves heat

42: Oh dont give me that. ECW is going to change, mark my words. Its going to change big time, whether Vince likes it or not. ECW isnt going to be some phoney promotion anymore with nobodys. Were following our name. We are going to be EXTREME!

This recieves a big pop

42: Shut up! I'm not doing it for you. I think that Vince-

*No Chance In Hell*

Vince comes down the ramp with his signiture powerwalk to a wave of heat ((Pun intended)) and walks into the ring.

Vince: Look, just who the hell do you think you are? This is still under my law, not yours. You cant just barge in here and-

42: Now wait just a damn minute. You softened this show up so much that it aint making any money! And you know it! Hell, the only reason you gave me this job is because you though ECW was sinking. You TOLD me that!

Vince recieves heat

Vince: Wel...thats not the point! Its my rules and my-

42: Your a buisness man correct?

Vince *taken aback by the brash question*: Well yes, wrestling is a buisness...

42: How bout this, if I can turn this thing around, I keep doing things my way. You start losing money, you can have it.

Vince: Well...alright. But your paying if this gets out of control...

*No chance in hell*

42: As my first act as general manager, I'm officially stopping the superstar exchange with Smackdown. I don't need Vickie poisoning my roster!

Recieves a pop

42: Now, I'm sorry to inform you that none of tonight's matches will be extreme, since I am not GM officially until tomorrow. And Vince, you better believe this is going to get out of control. Cause thats my style.

*Through Fire and Flames*

Tazz: Did you just see that Joey? It looks like ECW has become even more extreme! I'm liking this guy!

Joey: Yeah Tazz, but this guy is a wild card. He's unstable! I don't know if ECW can take that. But up next, we have match!

*Backstage*

The Miz and Morrison are backstage talking.

Miz: Hey Morrison, you ready for tonight's match?

Morrison: You kidding? You can't throw something as menial at the Shaman of Sexy as a mystery tag team partner. *recieves heat* Whoever it is, all they need to do is stand back and watch me work my magic.

Miz: Well...do you want me to come to help you out if you need it? Since we are a tag team...

Morrison: Doesn't mean we are friends. You don't get invited to the Palace of Wisdom just by a title. You have to earn your way in. And as far as I have seen, I've been the one doing all the work.

Miz: WHAT!? What are you talking about? You know what? Forget it. You're on your own.

*Commercial Break*

*Mi Destrojero*

Match #1

Instead of his usual entrance, Kevin is lowered to the ring by a wire. He is lowered down to the canvas with his arms crossed and eyes shut, like in a trance. He then suddenly "wakes up" and gives a vicious smile to a huge pop.

*Death Grip*

Mike Knox comes out, scared out of his wits of what he just saw. He slowly walks into the ring as Kevin gives him a feirce stare.

The Bell Rings and both men go at it. But Kevin obviously is the better man both physically and psychologically. At about 7:05 Mike Knox is on the top rope after a devestating clothesline to Kevin Thorn, but was too risky of a move. Kevin Thorn beats Mike Knox to the punch and delivers an old school Dark Kiss for the win. Kevin Thorn looks out the the crowd, gives them a dark sadistic smile, and again "goes to sleep" and rises up on a wire.

*Commercial*

*This Fire Burns*

CM Punk enters and goes into the ring, recieving a huge pop. He holds the belt up and settles into the lower right corner.

*Music to We got big balls*

Balls Mahoney comes out, tongue out and all, and steps into the ring with Punk.

*Whatever John Morrison's song is, cant find it AHHHHH!*

John Morrison comes out with his whole slow mo routine. He then waits outside the ring. A few seconds past.

Joey: Well who is it? I-

[color="mediumturquoise"]
I'M THE BOOGEYMAN! AND I'M COMING TO GET YOU![/COLOR]

And its the Boogeyman! As the red mist comes in, the red monster comes in and cracks the clock. He then gives a foaming smile. John Morrison immediatly gets in the ring on the opposite side of CM Punk. The Boogeyman follows after. The match begins with John Morrison and Balls as the legal men. John and Balls go at it exchanging blows and finally get in a grapple. John Morrison gets behind balls and tries to put him in hold, but Balls counters with some elbows to the gut and then a big upper cut. John Morrison is dazed and Balls bounces off the ropes and delivers a clothesline. Balls goes for the pin, but Morrison kicks out almost instantly. balls gets up, taunting Morrison, but he is too close and Morrison grabs his legs for the trip. Morrison gets up, still dazed, and looks toward Boogeyman. He hesitates for a second, but decides to go for the tag, but too late! Balls is up, violently turns Morrison around, and starts his patented punches.

BALLS!
BALLS!
BALLS!
Oooooo BALLS!

Morrison is down. Balls goes for the cover.

one...
two...
Morrison kicks out.

Balls starts to kick Morrison, and again bounces off the ropes, but Morrison rolls out of the way before the elbow of Balls goes right in his face. Morrison scrambles to his feet and blocks some of Ball's punches. Morrison then bounces off the ropes but is met with a clothesline. Balls drags Morrison to his side of the ring and tags in CM Punk, issuing a huge pop. Balls launches Morrison into the ring and drops down only for Punk to come running up and over to deliver the devistating knee to Morrison's face. But Morrison fights out of it, getting into a flurry of punches alternating between Punk and Balls. He delivers a clothesline to Punk and runs for the tag. Punk gets up and gives chase and...Morrison gets the tag! Now its the Boogeyman's turn. Boogeyman, fresh and ready, gives a headbutt to CM Punk to send him crashing to the ground. Boogeyman then picks CM Punk up and delivers a suplex! He picks him up again and delivers a devestating bodyslam. Boogeyman drags CM Punk over to his corner and tags in Morrison. Boogeyman holds CM Punk down while Morrison gets to the top ropes...he jumps for the flying elbow...and it connects as the Boogeyman rolls out. Morrison covers CM Punk.

One...
Two...
No!

Morrison drags CM Punk out, but Punk fights back! He issues a series of punches to Morrison and makes the tag to Balls. Balls starts to wail on Morrison but Morrison delivers a standing clothesline. Meanwhile on the outside Boogeyman is behind CM Punk! And he trips CM Punk onto the floor below, picks him up, and delivers the BOOGEY SLAM! Boogeyman rushes back to his post. Morrison now has Balls ((The wrestler)) in a sleeper hold and tags in the Boogeyman! Morrison lifts Balls up into a Corkscrew Neckbreaker! But then the Boogeyman with a devestating clothesline to Morrison and the Boogeyslam to Balls! He goes for the three count:

One...
Two...
Three!
Winner via pinfall: Morrison and The Boogeyman!

In midst of the absolute carnage, Boogeyman dumps a mouthful of worms right in John Morrison's mouth! Recieving mixed reactions for defeating the current champ and the ex champ, The Boogeyman goes around the outside and grabs a mic! Getting up close to CM Punk...

Boogeyman: I'm the Boogeyman! And I'm coming to get you!

And walks off.

Joey: My god what a crazy turn of events. ECW certainly has changed! When is the last time you saw the Boogeyman so dominate before?

Tazz: When have I seen him use a suplex before Joey? When have I seen him want the championship Joey? I don't know if I like the new Boogeyman, but he certainly is entertaining!

Joey: Well one things for sure Tazz, ECW certainly will never be the same again!

Note: I have found my partner, and he will do SD! He is a real life friend and a good guy, so treat him with the same respect you treat me (so basically, none)

**C...B...R** · 11-29-2007, 12:29 AM

C…L…B’s raw review

Things I liked
The cruiserweight announcement. I think it is a good idea but I don’t think that the triple threat final would work as if I was in the match I would just stand back and watch the other two go at it knowing that I would be in the match regardless. Glad the title is coming back though.

Kennedy going over HHH. Although its unlikely in the real WWE this is yours and I for one agree with it.

The HBK/Hardy match. Good match and something I would like to see. Could this be a heel turn for ol’ HBK? I’ll have to come back next time to find out…

Things I didn’t like
Why would Vince hire people he doesn’t even know, let alone know what they look like? Doesn’t make sense to me.

Jerry Lawler saying that they have more important things to worry about when the two masked men say they are going to clean the place up. Lawler would know that his job might be in trouble so I don’t think he would say that.

The Jericho segment. It was just there I read it but so what? Yay he’s back. That’s all I can really say about it. There was no lead up no delivery no nothing, just here he is there they go we’ll see them later. If Jericho was supposed to be going over here you didn’t deliver. He didn’t do any of his classic lines, he came out and said he wants the title. It just didn’t work for me and if I was there I wouldn’t be excited to see that match after seeing that promo. Also why would Orton try and break it up? He would let them go at it and hit an RKO on one of them.

Cade and Murdoch win by a bodyslam? A bodyslam? Come on why not Cades lariat clothesline?

Minor Things
The Dungeon is closed, it has been sold and is now just a museum. The divas wouldn’t be able to train there now.

I don’t think Rhodes would get a big pop, he really isn’t over. Maybe a pop but that’s it.

Commercials and then coming back to talk about the match. In the WWE a match like your tag match wouldn’t be talked about after a commercial.

Don’t end a show with “well that’s it join us next week.’ It really isn’t an ending show HBK on the ramp celebrating or something.

Final Thoughts: For your first show it wasn’t that bad, but it wasn’t great either. It was ok. Your promos need work but as you go on they will improve trust me I was just like you when I stated out. I had a hard time finding where the matches were. At the beginning go like Match 1: So and so vs. this and that that way it is easier for the reader to tell what the match was. As I said as time goes on you’ll get better. Check out a few of the other BTB’s to see how they do it, get a few ideas from them.

Overall rating:6/10

C…L…B’s ECW review

What I like
The Miz/Morrison promo. Morrison seemed in character and Miz had his moments.

The main event. Even though I don’t like The Boogyman this was a good match. I loved the line ‘Now Morrison has Balls. I laughed at it. Having Morrison pin Balls may not have been the right move though as it doesn’t really give him the edge on Punk. But it was a good match.

What I don’t like
Estrada promo. Again nothing exciting, he didn’t seem in character and saying he is moving to another role is not likely to be said on broadcast. Also #42? Not liking this name. Vince wouldn’t allow this guy to put his show down and say its not making money. Again never going to happen.

Thorne/Knox match. A man of Knox’s size would not be scared of Thorne. It made him look very week and isn’t the Death Kiss done with the opponents feet on the ropes? Going from a clothesline to that could not happen.

Minor Things
Following Owen death nobody is allowed to make their entrance from the ceiling. Cool concept but unrealistic for Thorne.

Final Thoughts: It was better then your Raw but only two matches? In real life that wouldn’t take up an hour of TV time. The Boogyman was not a good choice for a heel partner for John Morrison, you could have chose Elijah Burke, Big Daddy V anybody but him, I personally do not like him. Not going to go too much into details as I already pointed it all out above.

Overall Rating: 7/10
