WWE Monday Night RAW 11/23/09 Preview – Special 3 Hour Episode

November 23, 2009 Gary Smith Leave a comment

Tonight’s RAW is a special three-hour edition, which means it comes on an hour earlier than usual. It of course comes on the heels of last nights strong pay-per-view outing, Survivor Series. The only thing announced for tonight’s special RAW is the guest host, Jesse Venture! It’s going to be great seeing Venture, the WWE Hall of Famer back in a WWE ring as the guest host. Should make for a fun night. Always been a fan of “The Body”, hell I’m even looking forward to his Conspiracy Theory show debuting next week on TruTV.

Also tonight, the world premiere of The Marine 2 trailer. The Marine 2 of course stars Ted DiBiase and is the sequel to the John Cena film, The Marine. The film is straight-to-DVD, and will be arriving in stores on December 29th. We’ll have the trailer posted on the site tomorrow, for those of you who miss it tonight (although I’m sure you’ll get more than enough of it on WWE programming for the next month or so).

Looking forward to the interaction between Degeneration X, what’s next for Kofi Kingston and what Randy Orton has to say about losing to Kingston last night. It’s the WWE Thanksgiving Special 3-hour RAW telecast, tonight on USA Network at 7pm CST.

WWE Survivor Series 2009 Complete Results (11/22/09)

November 22, 2009 Gary Smith Leave a comment

The 2009 edition of WWE Survivor Series is in the books. The biggest story coming out of the event is the continuing of Kofi Kingston’s ascent to the RAW main-event. After several “career making” moments on RAW, the young Kingston found himself in a two-on-one situation against two former champions in CM Punk and Randy Orton. Against the odds, Kofi single handily defeated Punk and then Orton to become the sole survivor for his team in what is without a doubt the biggest win of his career. Kofi is riding a huge wave of momentum, and the fans are getting behind him in a big way. If WWE continues to play it right with Kofi, we could be watching the next big superstar develop before our eyes.

WWE played it predictably with John Cena retaining the title. I would have much preferred Shawn Michaels win the championship one more time, but hey, at least I got my wish of him superkicking Hunter (although I’m sure it won’t lead to a feud between the two, since Hunter isn’t a bitch like Batista). We’ll have more on this event tomorrow, with the debut of a brand new column series.

Anyway, the results are already posted individually, but you can hit the jump to view the complete results right here on this one post. Tomorrow, we debut Winners and Losers (Survivor Series Edition), so check back tomorrow for that.
