RAW Report 9/13/10 Cincinnati, Ohio

This week’s RAW starts with the RAW Roulette wheel. The camera pulls back to show Orton and Cena glaring in front of it. Josh steps in and welcomes us to RAW Roulette. All matches will be decided by the wheel, including the main event between Orton and Cena. It could be a Falls Count Anywhere Match, a Steel Cage Match or a Pillow Fight. Josh goes to spin it and Cena calls him Curious George and tells him to get his greasy mitts off the wheel! If the match will be left up to chance, he at least wants lady luck on his side. Eve steps up to the wheel in a metallic mini-dress. She spins and the wheel stops on Tables.

Orton walks off. Josh said the last time we saw Cena in a Tables Match he lost the WWE Title to Sheamus. Cena thanked Josh, it was a bad time in his life and watched to move on. Besides, tonight it’s a fresh start. Who you going to pick? Team Orton or Team Cena? He looks at Eve and said tonight he’s feeling lucky. Cena spins the wheel and the camera zooms in on the spinning WWE logo.

Music and pyro.

The steel cage is hanging over the ring. Cole talks about how it’s been nearly three years since we’ve played RAW Roulette. Already a blockbuster announcement from the wheel. King’s thrilled about the main event.

In the ring, Justin announces Chad Ochocinco. The fans in Cincinnati are hot for Ochocinco! He comes out shaking hands, then I hear a few boos. He almost loses his pants on the apron, just before getting in the ring he hikes them up. The music goes off and their some mixed reaction to him. He sounds nervous. He welcomes everyone to the season premier of RAW. Never ever has there been a guest star as hansom as himself. It will be an exciting and unforgettable night. It will –

Miz cuts Ochocinco off. Miz comes out and welcomes Ochocinco. He says the Bengals are his team, RAW is Miz’s show. Miz’s spray tan makes him look like a pumpkin. Miz says it’s nice to have a Guest Host he can relate to. They both say what they want, when they want because they can. Ochocinco’s a 6 time all pro wide receiver. Miz is Mr. MITB and the US Champion. Miz says they’re nothing alike because Miz is a Champion. Miz will defend his Championship at Night of Champions and Ochocinco will never have a championship because he plays for the Cincinnati Bungles. Fans hate Miz for THAT! The chant for Ochocinco.

Ochocinco says he’s got two words for you. The fans yell ‘Suck it!’, but the two words were ‘Child, Please!’ Obviously Miz hasn’t been to Cincinnati in a while. The Bengals won the AFC North last year. The Reds are going to the playoffs this year. Not just himself, but his boy T.O. and the rest of his team mates are ready to get a Superbowl Championship this year. Miz asked ‘really?’ Ochocinco came back with ‘really!’ They went back and forth with ‘really’ a couple times. Miz says the only thing he’s seen him and T.O. do together was leave a game at half time and when the hail Mary pass was thrown the wide receivers with in the locker room Tweeting! Cole said it did happen. Ochocinco wears 85. What’s 85? The number of passes he’ll drop this year or is 85 how Carson Palmer moves like and 85 year old man. Either way Ochocinco and the Bengals are overrated because he’s the Miz and he’s –

Ding-Ding! Heat for Cole, of course! “Enough talk, it’s time to determine the Miz’s match tonight, spin the wheel!” Fox in a floral ruched strapless dress spins. Submission Match! Ochocinco taunts Miz about it being a Submission Match and then –

Ding-Ding! “The wheel determined the wheel determined they type of non-Title match Miz will have. Miz’s opponent will be decided by Ochocinco.”

Ochocinco says 85 represents the number of ways this guy can tap Miz out. What better way to start this match than with his boy Daniel Bryan. Cole about has a stroke over how ‘unfair’ it is that Miz has to face Bryan so soon before Night of Champions.

Come on!

I will make this 6 Pack Challenge a 6 Pack Elimination. It will start with six men, when one’s eliminated, it will go down to five and continue until there’s a sole winner.
