Report done *EXCLUSIVELY* for InsidePULSE by PK
Welcome to the new InsidePULSE. I know many of you know me from 411mania, and you know that my RAW Report is plain and simple. If Orton nails an RKO, I will tell you. If Hurricane hits a shinning wizard, I will tell you. I will not make jokes, I will not give matches ratings, and I will not give my personal view on the show, for the most part. As of right now, the only exception to the rule is the HORRIBLE Diva Contest, don’t expect too much from that.
With that out of the way”¦
RAW!
Intro”¦Matt/KANE/Lita contract signing, and Eugene/Benoit vs. Orton/HHH tonight
Coach in the ring, and he goes to eliminate one of the Diva’s, but Randy Orton comes down, and he does the honors to eliminate Chandra.
Orton then continues to run down Benoit, and says that he has Benoit’s number, and shows the clips of Orton nailing the RKO on Benoit last week. Orton calls it destiny that he will win, and become the youngest World Champion, at the age of 24. This brings out Benoit, and he says that since we are showing footage, we can show the clips of Benoit making Orton tap out. Orton realizes that Benoit has never done that, and gets in his face about it. Benoit then grabs Orton’s arm, and locks the Crossface on, and makes him tap out. They then replay that footage. HAHA.
