Family reunion
October 9, 2006

Special start time – 8/7 CT
This Monday night, “RAW Family Reunion” will begin at the special time of 8/7 CT on the USA Network and feature several past and present RAW Superstars.

Welcome home
One year ago, RAW was welcomed home to the USA Network. This year, several past RAW Superstars and special guests will be welcomed back for RAW’s Family Reunion. Alumni and guests already scheduled to appear include Big Show, Rob Van Dam, King Booker & Queen Sharmell, Finlay, William Regal, Chavo Guerrero, Bobby Lashley, Rey Mysterio, Undertaker, Batista and Mr. Kennedy. At family reunions, families don’t always get along. Who else will show up for this special Family Reunion”¦and what will happen?

Who will say goodbye?
For one monster, it will be their final night on RAW. For weeks, Kane and Umaga have been at each other’s throats, trying to prove who the bigger monster is. At RAW Family Reunion, the Samoan Bulldozer and the Big Red Machine will battle in a Loser Leaves RAW Match to finally settle the issue. Who will be left on RAW when the smoke clears?

The Champ is still here
Last week, John Cena overcame the odds and retained the WWE Championship by defeating Edge in a Steel Cage Match. Will the Rated-R Superstar come back for more, or will a new challenger emerge for The Champ?

Find out all this and more when RAW Family Reunion is live from Columbia, S.C. at the special time of 8/7 CT on the USA Network.

Tommy P. will have LIVE coverage of the show as it unfolds later tonight, so stay tuned!
