Occupy RAW?

From wwe.com:

In the wake of news that WWE Chief Operating Officer Triple H has vowed to absolutely not step down from running Monday night�s Raw Supershow, Christian has spearheaded an effort by various Superstars, Divas, referees, announcers and crew members to travel to Oklahoma City and stage a �Solidarity Rally� in the backstage parking lot of the Chesapeake Energy Arena prior to the show. The contingent, which consists of those who walked out on Triple H this past Monday night, have asserted that they will not return to the Raw Supershow or step into the building to perform until Triple H relinquishes control of the show.




My level of interest will be directly related to the quality of signs and chants at this 'rally'. Here's hoping I don't have to hear "Hey hey, ho ho, Triple H has got to go!"`

If this leads to getting the FCW guys some face time, I'm all for it.





Hence, if you come to Manchester with a United shirt on, you may as well come to Raw with a t-shirt of Hitler getting a rimjob from the Queen and blowjob from Richard the Lionheart. ~Devineman 07/12/2011

I doubt the indy club of Cabana or KOW will come into full effect. Expect a shitload or Orton Cena and Punk, K2 and Whelshtista

Wasn't the Rock spoiled to be at Raw or was that nothing but a baseless rumor?





I remember Eddie Guerrero.

Well they better do something. If I had bought advance tix to attend RAW in person and everything winds up happening in the back parking lot, I'd be seriously pissed.
Might make for okay TV (ahhh, no it prolly won't) , but it would be a truly suck-ass arena experience.

I don't think they'd have to go full on with an FCW or Punk's indy friends type show as bringing in replacement wrestlers wouldn't have to exist in a vaccuum.

You could open the show with whatever re-cap of last week slash HHH intro and ultimatum. He could then announce that he's brought in some independents because no one is bigger than the WWE, and that starting right now once every 10 minutes he's going to draw 3 names from a hat (or whatever) and if they aren't in the ring competing they're fired. Alternatively he could also tell all of his title holders that if they aren't in the building by 11pm they'll forfeit their titles.

Basically you'd win up with a half and half show where you'd start to see at least some of the guys coming back to save their jobs, and the other half of the show would be a couple of spot light matches using FCW talent. By the end of the night you'd have back most of the talent that doesn't really get much use out of this story, and give HHH grounds to fire the likes of Christian, Otunga, Ziggler (who would be stripped of the title), and maybe some other name that could use a push (I'm thinking someone with muscles... actually I'd go with Henry as its a good way to get the belt off of him and let him stay a monster that just does run ins). Bonus points if they do this and have ADR talk all tough and then break ranks at the very last second in order to save being stripped of his belt by running to the ring as they countdown to 11pm (to be laid out by Punk/Cena/Orton or some other crowd popping spot). Those that were fired can then join Miz and Truth in forwarding this story where ever it is that the WWE is planning on taking it... maybe some new Invasion or NWO type thing?

If you really wanted to you could then use one or two of the FCW or Indy worker's going forward as being guys who have to suffer with the label of being "scabs"... let them do some promo about how yeah they're scabs, but this was their shot and their dream so they took it... you could use Chris Hero, or Colt in a spot like this.. basically a guy who's closer to being ready made... instant feud.

End result, the whole story moves and those with weak and silly reasons for walking out are back in the fold, you get to debut or at least spotlight some new talent, and those left on the outside have bigger reasons to gripe as they've now been fired.

Whatever they're going to do with this story, it kinda has to end tonight: no way are they all flying to Mexico next week to protest, and they need to start pushing fowards with the Vengance card. My money is on him offering Miz and Truth their jobs back if they wrestle tonight, threatening to ban Rhode's face mask if he doesnt drop it... teasing Christian with 'one more shot'...

Booker T apparently walked out by accident. Is he down with HHH? Would he wrestle? Titus O'Neal?

oh, and Zack Ryder. WWWYKI!!

Think we'll be getting Brodus Clay re-debuting and destroying Zack Ryder (or whoever else is the jobberiest of jobbers remaining).

As for the Indy thing that everyone dreams about every week...when was the last time WWE brought up any Indy guy less than 6 months into being at FCW? Isn't one half of this Kings of Wrestling team that everyone talks about not even signed to the WWE? I think if FCW was coming to WWE tonight, we would have heard the rumors flowing by now.

Think we'll wind up with a lot of Flash's plan to get the heels back in...stripping of belts, threatening to fire, etc, until we get some sort of force against HHH to end the show. I mean...you would think HHH can't win everyone of these battles with the heel group...right?....right?...no one? ok.
