RAW 3.17.08

  • Chris Jericho kicks off the show with the Highlight Reel. His first guest: the Intercontinental Championship, since he became the newest Champion last week, for a record-setting 8th time. His second guest: The Big Show.
  • After watching the clip from last Monday when The Big Show tossed Floyd Mayweather out of the ring, The Big Show says that it reinforces the fact that nobody likes Mayweather. As an example of what little chance Mayweather has, he says that Jericho, a WWE Superstar who outweighs Mayweather by about 60 lbs, couldn’t last 2 minutes with Show.
  • Jericho comes back, saying that he could go against The Big Show, and while he’s climbing the ladder at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08, The Big Show will be picking up the teeth Mayweather knocked out.
  • The Big Show says Jericho is the WWE equivalent of Floyd Mayweather: he’s loud, arrogant, and in way over his head. The Big Show challenges Jericho to a match tonight for the Intercontinental Championship, which Jericho accepts.
  • Mr. McMahon talks about his Walk-Of-Fame Star, being on “Larry King Live,” celebrating St. Patrick’s Day..and says he could top off his great week by ending Ric Flair’s career. So tonight, it’s going to be Vince McMahon vs. Ric Flair one-on-one in a Street Fight!
  • Triple H: King of Kings is coming to DVD next week.
  • CM Punk def. Carlito
  • Earlier this week, Snoop Dogg says he’s looking forward to hosting the BunnyMania Divas Match at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08. He goes on to say he thinks Maria made a bad choice and should have stayed loyal to her boyfriend, but stops, shaking his head. Santino Marella comes out and says Snoop should just read the cue cards, but Snoop says no, and walks off.
  • William Regal comes out, and talks about the SMACKDOWN vs. RAW Match at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08, before introducing Paul London & Brian Kendrick’s opponent tonight, Umaga.

  • Backstage, William Regal tells Triple H he’s worried that John Cena or Randy Orton won’t compete tonight. Triple H says he’s thought of that. If John Cena doesn’t compete, he’s out of the Triple Threat Match at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08. If Orton doesn’t compete, Triple H will strip Orton of the title, and Cena and Triple H will fight over it at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08. When Regal asks if he’s going to do that, why doesn’t he just strip Orton of the title and award it to himself, Triple H says this way is more fun, and he wants to take it, not have it handed to him.
  • Highlights from Mr. McMahon’s Walk Of Fame Star Ceremony.
  • Backstage, Ric Flair sees Shawn Michaels and tells him that he’s not going to stop his show at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08. Flair says he doesn’t want sympathy and doesn’t want to see Shawn until Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08, and he doesn’t want him to get involved in the Flair/McMahon match.
  • Finlay, in a video taped earlier, says that Hornswoggle is getting better, but he’s never going to be the same. But, Finlay says, the beating he is going to give JBL at Wrestlemania XXIV 03.30.08 will be something JBL will never forgot either.
  • JBL says that he was looking forward to facing Finlay head-on tonight, but since he’s with Hornswoggle, JBL has scoured the company for another Irishman…and brings out Colin Delaney.

  • Kim Kardashian says only the coolest and hippest will be invited - and the overweight male stripper isn’t one of them.
  • Backstage, Orton says that they should just go out there and lose tonight, that way they won’t get hurt. Cena says that if he wants to go out and lose, go right ahead. Cena says no matter what Orton does, he’s going out there to fight. Triple H comes in and says the match will continue until they beat every single one of their opponents, or until they can no longer continue - and tells them he’s rooting for them.
  • Despite their best efforts, the RAW roster starts beating up on Randy Orton and John Cena, then Triple H makes his way to the ring and pedigrees both Orton and Cena
