The 24 finale is on at 8.
Raw is on at 7.
I will miss the second hour of Raw.
No one will care.
WWE Raw Preview 7/14
WWE returns to Richmond, Va. on Monday night for the final Raw leading into the Battleground PPV.
It's expected to be a big show centered on a main event of WWE champion John Cena & Dean Ambrose & Roman Reigns against Randy Orton & Seth Rollins & Kane in a six-man tag match.
Plus, Ric Flair is on the road with WWE this weekend, Sting is teasing a 07.14.14 event/announcement, and The Authority is "back from vacation."
The advertised roster includes Cena, Orton, Chris Jericho, U.S. champion Sheamus, Alberto Del Rio, Triple H, the former Shield, the Wyatts, Kane, and Big E.
For the live crowd in Richmond, WWE was advertising the six-man tag main event that is now being advertised for TV.

It’s Bastille Day! Le quatorze julliet! The blood of the martyrs will water the meadows of France!! (Wait, that’s a quote from Les Miserables. But it could be a quote from the Marseillaise, which is totally fucking nuts. Let’s investigate:
Aux armes, citoyens
Formez vos bataillon
Marchons, marchons!
Qu’un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons!
which, translated, approximates to
To arms, citizens
Form your battalions
Let’s march, let’s march!
Let an impure blood
Water our furrows!
So you can see how we made that mistake about the blood of the martyrs watering the meadows of France—so easy to confuse that with enemy blood watering our plowed fields. Anyway the point of all of this is that Bastille Day is kind of tonally appropriate for 24, which may also be about watering plants with blood, you know, on some macro level.) Jack Bauer says: It’s finale time. The day comes to an end, and Jack has to make “an unthinkable and grave” decision. Like whether or not to continue this experiment for another season, or just let Jack Bauer (and his legend) die out.

I'm going to start 24 at around 8:20 so I don't have to wait out commercials

I'll miss a bunch tonight too. Meaning I'll more than likely miss a Sting taped vignette plugging the video game. If Sting himself isn't actually on Raw (which he 99.9% won't), then I demand Sandow dressed as him.
Fully expect to see....
Singles matches between the Wyatts & Usos
Ziggler to job to someone (Cesaro, Del Rio or Rusev, hell, or all of them)
Big E doing his Rev Slick impression
Swagger/Rusev stand off again
AJ/Paige friendly interaction ending in an intense little face off
Cameron wasting everyone's time
An awesome Jericho/Wyatt exchange
Bo Dallas going 13-0? 14-0? I forgot, I'm sure JBL will say it 80 times during his match.
Steph looking hot & making Tits Bella jump through more hoops
And a decent main event with Old Man Kane probably standing tall to the displeasure of us all

So the preview says "the American administration grapples with devastating news". Now, if the old man croaked I don't think you'd frame it as "the American administration" ... though with the 'American' qualifier in there, maybe that's their ticket around that ... it'd be a helluva thing to whack Audrey (perhaps as an artistic mirror to whacking Terry in the first season) ... I can't believe they would let Jack croak.
Maybe my next post in the Raw thread will be about Raw ... stay tuned!

The Usos vs. Heath Slater and Titus O'Neil is also likely for RAW.
Dear sweet baby Allah ... let that happen around 8:30 or so.

"The reason I mention the free preview is .... because investors are starting to think of 'rats' and 'sinking ships' and Tugboat nor Typhoon has nothing to do with any of it."

Seth Rollins placed in front of Orton and Kane in the graphic. Positioning. Little things.

Ambrose is a better wrestler than Piper was. I love his character. But his vision is about as good as Piper's hearing. How do you miss Kane creeping up on you? |

That beating he took almost looked tougher than that 5-o'clock shadow of his.

At what point does Cena become the old veteran sick of the disrespect from the new guys?
3 years? 4?

The head writer of Raw likes battle royals as much as Teddy loved tag team matches playa.
