Folks, seems to be shaping up to be a burner of the barn. Check this out.
A 15 man battle royal featuring "stars that have appeared on Raw over the last 15 years." Could be a veritable who's who!
Some names announced for next week - and no one is sure who will be on hand or who will be put to tape - include Hogan, Austin, Foley, Trish, Lita, Eric Bischoff, BRET HART. Hart will probably be sending in a message, he is very concious about appearing for the company. Apparently Rock turned them down cold. Some people are tossing around names like Sid and Sunny.
And - for ONE NIGHT ONLY - an "Evolution" reunion!
We'll see a ladder match between Jeff Hardy, a master of the rungs, and Carlito. Dont forget the McMahon family portrait, including our friend Hornswaggle McMahon!
Either way, it should be 3 hours of fun. Dana will be making chili for it, I will be stocked on the winter ales, and we are stoked.

Trish will not be on, she was taken off accoriding to a report I read on the Torch. She was on, but now ios off the list. I was dissapointed top say the least. And Rock is a douche. No one sees his Disney movies, no one gives a shit about his acting, anyone who does know his acting knows him from Raw, send a taped message for fucks sake, poser.

No, James, that changed again. She came off the list, and then came back on. She is apparently once again listed on wwe.com as appearing.

I also hope Sunny lost some weight. It sucks Candido can't be there so I hope Sunny still isn't a fat beastly mess of a woman. She better look decent. And I'm suprised Lita is showing up after how WWE showed her the door. I thought she wouldn't show for sure.

Sunny apparently looks really good. She had let herself go to disgusting proportions, but recently got herself back in shape. Lita just wants to have some fun, leave her alone.

I love Lita, I have no problem with her being on Raw, I'm glad in fact. I'm just shocked shes showing up since she felt hurt about how shitty they were to her when she was leaving. Just fucking buried her. I felt awful for her, cause she was as important to WWE as Trish was, why let Trish go out the classy way but shit on her? I'm glad she'll be on Raw and I hope she does have fun and they don't thrash her monday.

People need to stop whining about that "treatment." Quite simply, a lot of it has to do with the fact that Lita WAS PLAYING A HEEL ROLE AT THE TIME. She did not give a ton of notice to WWE she was leaving. She was entrenched as SOMEONE THE FANS HATED. The whole goodbye fit the storylines. And in the WWE, do you ever really say goodbye?
For crying out loud, when Bischoff left he was thrown into the back of a garbage truck. These things happen. Who cares, they are actors playing a role. If Lita was playing a face role and humiliated ,call me to complain. She was an evil-doer who got her comeuppance. Its not a big deal, folks.

First off, I've been a heel fan my entire life, I know when the difference now between comeuppance on the wcreen, and a person feeling hurt they made her act like a slutty vamp goth chick, which she didn't want to do, and instead of a tiny nod saying thanks for all the hard work, she gets shitted on screen and off. Edge had to throw a good bye party, WWE didn't give a shit. Oh but Trish, here's one more title win on the way out. You act like Lita wasn't as important as Trish in the past, she deserves a pat on the back just as much as Trish. No shit she was a heel, ok so you don't give her the belt on the way out, but how about a little respect? And you compared Lita to Bischoff, laughable. A heel in ring performer to a heel GM? Are you insane? How about a loser leaves the brand match of some shit?

Kind of disappointed in Rock. I heard an interview with him some time ago that he would always come back to WWE because he owes all his movie success to them. I have the DVR set so I don't miss it.

So I just made that last post, and it popped me back to the top of the page, and there is an advertisement for the 15th. And who is in the pic? Rock. Go figure.

Tom in honor of your new avatar I have to say once again that Jamie Noble is gold........You know in WCW I never really paid him much mind but he has really hit his stride here..He was always solid in ring but out of ring he is one of my favorites on the stick and skits...

During the Colts v. Ravens game, there was a commercial for Raw. It had shots of the Rock. I can't wait, but not for Evolution

I have liked Noble going way back. Some of his stuff with Nidia, a tragically underrated talent in her own right, was gold. I have a VCR tape of a WWF Aussie tour with Noble and Nidia carrying on on the beach and trying to surf and such....genious.
Noble won a lot of respect with the internet smarts with his ring work in Ring of Honor between his WWE stints. He can really go in the ring. When we went to the Smackdown at the Coliseum, I was thrilled to see him going at it with Mysterio. Noble deserves more a role. He does have a lot of respect, in fact right now he is pulling double duty as an agent.
Without spoiling anything it seems they are building Palumbo (or as Emma calls him Chuck Columbo) as the heel. So Michelle and Noble may be a fan-favorite pairing.

I do. I am a stickler for detail. This isn't the 15th anniversary. It's the 14th and 11 month anniversary. The whole show is ruined. RUINED!!!!

Good point. But that means Tom ruined the surprise by starting this thread.

Noble fucking rules, Tom mentioned it and i've said before, check out some Nobles ROH matches on youtube if you havn't seen it. All around great worker. It blows he's in a angle with the limited Columbo(I like that better than Palumbo), hopefully his push with McCool just doesn't get dropped and he can work with more talented guys who compliment hi style more. I will say I'm disapointed Noble will be face, but at least he's getting a push.
Fuck Rock, stay the fuck home poser. Evolution reunion should be cool since 3 of the 4 are faces, 2 of the 4 are the top champs and Orton is the more hated guy in the company. That should be fun. I'm expecting Y2J to get in the Evolution mix somehow. Hopefully the ladder match doesn't blow, with Carlito staying hopefully he puts in a good effort. The returns should be cool, I'm more looking fowrd Trish Lita and Sunny though. Moreso Sunny, and I'll be pissed if there isn't a Candido chant.

It seems that Jamie Noble is one of the only wrestlers everyone at Heckle House agrees on.
It should be very interesting about Sunny.

We must be careful on setting expectations for all this. For all we know they may have Sunny strut out on the ramp and wave to the crowd. Not everyone we are looking forward to seeing is going to have an active role in the show.
It may be interesting to see if any wildcards like Big Sid are on hand. Also, for all the 15th anny stuff, WWE may want to put its best stuff on display, so hopefully wrapped around all this stuff we'll have a good wrestling show.
I am a Palumbo fan. Noble fan too. Hell, a Michelle fan as well. Hey, Noble's shirt was funny, especially as Palumbo was misspelled "Pulambo"
Noble - 2 Pulambo - 0

I wonder if any of these returns may lead to a return to the roster. I won't believe Sunny will look good until I see it.

Snot literally shot out of my nose from laughing so hard at tht shirt.
And Tom, I agree Sunny may not have a thing to say, she might just be waving, but no way do they just have Trish and Lita walk around, show some skin and wave? They'll be talking and have a role. Yeah it will be a small one, it'd be silly to have Trish and Lita be eye candy, people love them, and way more than Sunny. I'm not even looking at this from a fan standpoint, from a booking point of view, they're going to give you maybe not huge ratings, but they'll be responsible for a little boost tonight.

James, I dont doubt it. I would bet at the least they will all have "speaking lines."
Balls, be as cynical as you want, but there are very recent pics of Sunny out there and she looks dandy enough.

Any links? She REALLY looked horrific. I'm now very curious. Of course, it makes some sense that she looks better, or McMahon wouldn't put her on the tube.

This is true. But Sunny REALLY looked bad.
Grover once got her to take a swing at him with a kendo stick. And Blue Lou once told Candido how ugly she was, not realizing they were married.
