Anyone Needs a Job? Monday Night’s Alright For Managing!

Anyone Needs a Job? Monday Night’s Alright For Managing!



With Vicki Guerrero out as Raw’s General Manager, we all can speculate on who could possibly be the new GM every Monday Night at 8pm Central. Some of the great General Managers came through the television screen every Monday Night, like William Regal (maybe), the Coach (sure), Eric Bischoff (Uncle Eric!), and Mike Adamle (really?). This past week on Raw, Vicki Guerrero quit from her position as General Manager and this coming week on Raw, the three hour special “3-on-1” Raw, WWE hopefully will announce a new General Manager. Raw this week will be from Charlotte, North Carolina, and after thinking of couple of possibilities, here are the options I think I would enjoy seeing as the new General Manager of Raw.

John “Bradshaw” Layfield
Last time we say this New York planted Texan; it was his retirement match at WrestleMania XXV when he lost the Intercontinental Heavyweight Championship to Rey Mysterio in a 21-second match. We know that JBL can talk the talk and make the crowd mad, as well as take the sides of the heels and make the faces work for their position, I really couldn’t think of anyone who would fit the role better with a fresh face on the screen. And with JBL as the new Raw General Manger, that could boost up ratings every Monday night, hopefully.

Hulk Hogan
For one, he needs the money; why else would he do it for? And everyone loves the Hulkster, and each and every decision he would make, the crowd will pop for. Now giving it more thought, Hogan could take too much from everyone on the crowd and probably become the center of Raw and the only reason people watch Raw, which would be sad. But come on, Hogan as the Raw GM, that would be kind of cool to see.

Eric Bischoff
Why not bring back the first and longest Raw General Manager back? Bischoff is known for helping ratings, which Raw has been lacking since the draft eight days after WrestleMania this year. Raw could really benefit from Bischoff coming back and becoming the General Manger once again… It would really be fitting hearing “I’m Back” playing on the speakers.

Ric Flair
He needs the money. He cannot say away from the squared circle. With this on-air role, he “can” put himself if matches whenever he wants to. Flair also loves the business, so this gives him the opportunity for so. Flair also has a history with the top guys on Raw right now. Triple H, Randy Orton, and Batista were all in Evolution with Flair several years ago. Personally, I would really enjoy seeing Flair as the new Raw General Manager. And if Wikipedia is correct, Ric Flair already signed a deal with WWE to be the Raw General Manager, and we know Wikipedia isn’t always credible. We have to wait and see.

Extreme Results from Extreme Rules

Last night at Extreme Rules, four titles changes hands five times, the Intercontinental Championship to Chris Jericho for the ninth time, the ECW World Championship to Tommy Dreamer, the WWE Championship to Batista (what a joke!), and the World Heavyweight Championship (twice), the first time to Jeff Hardy, and the second to CM Punk after cashing in the Money in the Bank. I made predictions yesterday, I went 4-4, a lot better than WrestleMania XXV, but not as good as I would of hoped. I was right on the Intercontinental title No Holds Barred match, the Samonan Strap match, the Miss WrestleMania Hog Pen match, and the Submission match, with Jericho, CM Punk, Santina, and Cena (respectively) won their matches. Next couple of days, I will discuss more on my thoughts from the pay-pew-view, as well as watching it live!

Extreme Rules Predictions

Tonight is WWE's Extreme Rules Pay-Per-View. Here are the listings of the match and my predictions of the matches...

WWE Championship Steel Cage Match: Randy Orton (C) v Batista...

Winner: Champion Randy Orton, due because I cannot see Batista walking out as champion, and if they keep the title on Orton, when Triple H comes back, and faces Orton for the title, Orton would stronger as champ and Triple H would look better if they give him the championship back.

World Heavyweight Championship Ladder Match: Edge (C) v Jeff Hardy...

Winner: Champion Edge, due because Hardy is up for signing a new contract, and also wants some time off. I can see his brother Matt making a distraction for Jeff, letting Edge set up the ladder, crawl up it, capture the title, and walk out as champ.

Submission Match: Big Show v John Cena...

Winner: John Cena with a new submission debuting tonight at Extreme Rules.

ECW World Championship Triple Threat Hardcore Rules Match: Christian (C) v Jack Swagger v Tommy Dreamer...

Winner: Jack Swagger as new champion. I hope this isn't the case, but the two other World titles I can see being retained. I would love to see Tommy Dreamer win the title, but I know he's about ready to retire, so tonight would be his last match.

Intercontinental Championship No Holds Barred Match: Rey Mysterio (c) v Chris Jericho...

Winner: New Intercontinental Champion for the ninth time, Chris Jericho, with a steel chair toss when Mysterio tries to hit the 619/Drop the Dime, and Jericho slaps the Walls of Jericho on, hollers "Ask Him!" and gets the tap out victory!

United States Championship Fatal Four Way Match: Kofi Kingston (c) v MVP v Matt Hardy v William Regal...

Winner: MVP to regain his US title after losing it on Monday Night Raw this past week.

Samoan Strap Match: Umaga v CM Punk...

Winner: CM Punk, due in part being the Mr. Money in the Bank.

Ms WrestleMania Hog Pen Match: Vicki Guerrero (c) v Santina Marella...

Winner: New Ms WrestleMania, Santina Marella, after making Vicki become good friends with the hogs in the pen, and making Vicki embarrassed.



Those are my predictions, and if they're anything like WrestleMania, most of these will be wrong, but we'll see!
