Monday Night RAW comes to you just 24 hours after the Unforgiven pay-per-view, and Mr. McMahon will have a major announcement tonight.

Last night at Unforgiven, Kurt Angle was able to defeat John Cena. Angle, however, did not walk out as the WWE Champion, as his victory came via disqualification. What will Angle have in store for Cena, one night after coming so close to winning the WWE Championship? Watch Monday Night RAW to find out.

History was made last night when Ric Flair captured the Intercontinental Championship from Carlito. After the match, Flair was seen partying until he dropped. Carlito will get a shot to regain the gold tonight on RAW in a huge rematch. Will all of Flair’s excessive partying have an effect on the outcome?

Another major championship changed hands at Unforgiven when Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch defeated The Hurricane & Rosey for the World Tag Team Championship. Be sure to catch Day One of Cade & Murdoch’s reign on top of the tag team mountain Monday night on RAW.

Also, Women’s Champion Trish Stratus, who looked better than ever Sunday night at Unforgiven in a tag team match, will take on Torrie Wilson.
All this and more tonight on RAW (Spike TV, 9/8 CT).

LIVE from Wichita Falls, TX
Hosts are Jerry Lawler, Jim Ross, & Johnathan Coachman

Bischoff walks out to the ring with the real WWE Championship. Eric adresses the confusion with the rightful WWE Championship holder, but brings out Kurt Angle first. Bischoff says that Cena ignored the rules last night in his match, and strips Cena of the WWE title. Eric gets to introducing the new WWE Champion, when Vince McMahon walks out. Angle says that Vince is here to congratulate him on being the new champion, and promises to represent the company with the three Is. Vince correct Kurt on being the WWE Champion, as nobody has named him that. McMahon says that the only way a title changes hands is by pinfall or submission. Eric says that Cena attacked him, to which Vince replies to shut the hell up, as John Cena is still the WWE Champion. McMahon then turns his attention to WWE Homecoming and pimps the big four who will be there. He also says that on that night Cena will face Bischoff for the WWE title.
