RAW's Main Singles Title, RAW as the B-Brand, Tonight's Show, More

[Dre]

- WWE's RAW preview for tonight refers to the Intercontinental Title as RAW's main singles Title and asks if Kofi Kingston will be able to hold onto it. It's interesting how RAW has lost so many of its stars in the Draft, lost it's World Championship and now has a guy fresh out of developmental holding their main singles Title. I wonder if somehow they will bring back one of the World Titles to RAW, sooner than later. Is WWE now considering RAW the B-brand? With the ratings so low and officials always worrying about them, they've made a lot of risky moves with the brand as of late.

- Speaking of the RAW preview, it doesn't confirm any matches for tonight's broadcast but with the Night of Champions fallout, it will probably be an interesting one. The McMahon family will be on hand to issue a statement on Vince's status. Stay tuned today for anymore news on tonight's show.

Kofi Kingston = RAW's Main Star.

That doesnt mean hes the top star at all, lol. Ive seen that on a few forums, and its not true. hes a midcarder, but right now, the IC title is the biggest title they have, but its still a midcarder. So ya, hes the onmly champ, but not the top guy at all, as they will start making some main event feuds now.

This Raw is going to suck, I hope Jericho finally benefits and take control of the brand now that Triple H is out.

Raw isnt going to be the same anymore. the draft ruined raw.

Might as well post this here..

I read on PWinsider that a title is "supposed" to go to RAW soon. There's been some talks about a title switch happening on a RAW episode as a way to boost ratings and give the show a bigger feel of unpredictability.

Punk using the MITB would be the logical choice if they want to bring a title to RAW, but I think that either Cena or Batista will somehow end up winning one of the titles at GAB, despite the brand extension.

LMAO, everyone says Raw suck now, but before, they complained SD sucked. How does Raw suck? Its the same as last week, when everyone said "Ya man, Raws awesome,a nd so is SD, the wwe is shaking things up"... Just because it doesnt have a title, doesnt make it suck. I mean, its not like wrestlings real,s o they obviously have written/planned whag they're going to do, so its obviously for a storyline. its not like Raw is going to suck just because the WHC/WWE title isnt there THIS WEEK...

Punk won't cash in the MITB. Remember the main titles are for superstars, not glorfied midcarders.

^Punk= MITB holder.. I highly doubt writer's will let Punk keep the breifcase 'til Wrestlemania..

I really see a huge last chance contender match for Triple H or Edge. (Mainly HHH because WWE will be using Edge for The Undertaker's storyline) Most likely Cena vs. Triple H.. They have a draw keeping the awesome score between them 1-1-1, that way either of them look weak.. Punk come's, and cashe's in on Triple H who retain's due to the draw...

I think it would be an awesome way for Punk to cash in.. He has his little heel turn, he doesn't job, nor can he not be seen on show's...

No, Punk will drop it to someone more worthy. Like Orton.

No, Punk will drop it to someone more worthy. Like Orton.

How do you see that coming about?

 

[Hardy90]

Punk isn't going to drop it unless he gets injured or something of the sort
