RAW #1,000 (3 HOURS, 8PM ET START TIME) July 23

[Atty]

I really want Taker to show up sometime during this show.

I want him to challenge Slater. Lights go out, crowd goes nuts, Slater begs for his life as it's about to start, cut throat, Tombstone.

3 hour of Raw will only hurt PPV buys ("Why should I pay $44.95 (etc)...when I can see 3 hours of action free every Monday night")

And who knows if this WWE Network thing even gets off the ground....or is even around long.

I think they're onto the right thing by transitioning some programming to the Internet. Put an hour pre-Raw show there. More and more people are doing away with TV service (trend will only continue) because you can watch most programming on the Internet.

Didn't the Chairman come out recently and say they were making a drastic shift in importance from PPV's to RAW programming? This would fall into that idea. I just hope it leads back to the "anything can happen on Raw" days we used to get.

3 hour of Raw will only hurt PPV buys ("Why should I pay $44.95 (etc)...when I can see 3 hours of action free every Monday night")

because they don't give away matches like lesnar/cena or triple h/lesnar during those free shows.

And that's Morrison with the cold hard truth

Punk retweeted the following:

@Stall_19: Well @JohnCena (Superman) sure screwed up by giving @CMPunk (Batman) prep time. Everyone knows Batman doesn't lose with prep. #wwe #raw

We can only hope.

[Judas Iscariot]

Dean Ambrose crashes the wedding and AJ becomes the Harley Quinn to his Joker.

BOOM.

You're welcome.

[Gangers]

Anyone starting to think they're trying to get a bit too much on this show? Major events already announced:

1. DX reunion
2. The Rock
3. Brock Lesnar accepting HHH's challenge
4. Bryan/AJ wedding
5. Punk vs Cena (I expect this to get 20 minutes)

What am I missing?

IC title match ...I'm actually hoping we get a six pack for the IC match ...give us some actually semblance of a division. Christian Vs. Cody Vs. Tensai Vs. Tyson Vs. Sandow Vs. Ryder.

And don't forget that Austin usually tends to show up to this milestone shows ...a Taker appearance is probably likely and Foley is going to be on hand. So yeah, this show is going to be PACKED. I'm also hoping for a tag title re-match where PTP take the titles home.
