Monday, JUNE 22 – 7:05 PM (CT)

-WWE Raw has arguably been the worst of the four shows the company produces every week. So, as a reward, we were given a third hour last Monday. If that was not enough, this week's show will be commercial free! Luckily, Jim Ross mentioned in his blog that he and Todd Grisham will be in Green Bay tonight, so it looks like all three shows will be represented.

Brand extension be damned! I know I have advocated for WWE to adhere to the brand extension and keep people on their own shows, or do away with the whole thing (I am in favor of the brand extension, but I want to see them enforce it). However, if they did that tonight, this show would be like a Raw brand pay-per-view. Raise your hand if you would like to see that? Anyone? Exactly.

Donald Trump will be on the show tonight, making his first live appearance since buying the show. Yes, I know I did not put quotations around "buying," but we all know it is a wrestling storyline, so don't panic and sell all of your WWE stock. By the way, why are the fans in attendance getting refunded their ticket price? Donnie, you only do that when the show has to be cancelled or ends early. By the way, I hope I get refunded my money this Sunday at The Bash pay-per-view.

Will Trump announce a new general manager tonight? If so, will that general manager be Ric Flair? Will it be Randy Savage? Will it be Brett Favre? By the way, we should all be glad they are not doing some silly skit with a Favre impersonator tonight. Of course, the show starts in just about an hour, so I guess there is still time to write that in.

For the sake of having an on-air authority figure, I am guessing Trump has to name a GM. Trump was involved in a huge WrestleMania angle and only appeared on Raw twice. I doubt he is going to gas up the jet and go on the road with the boys. Flair would be a logical pick because he would flourish in the role. He could also cement the fact he is retired by saying he could book himself in a match if he wanted to, but he wants to respect his retirement and Shawn Michaels.

Finally, new WWE Champion Randy Orton, who is also the old WWE Champion, will defend the belt against Triple H in a Last Man Standing match. Heck, the fans are getting to watch the show for free, so maybe they'll have an eating contest instead. By the way, eating contests are no joke.

I have the biggest appetite of anyone I know and this past weekend, I tried to eat "The Colossus," which is a cheeseburger on ciabatta bread the size of a dinner plate. This thing is no joke. The lettuce on it alone is enough for a salad. Anyway, if you succeed, you get the burger for free, two hours in the VIP Lounge, and most importantly you get to rename the burger. I came close but the pizza and beer I had beforehand prevented the victory. No worries though; "The Rich Twilling" will grace the pages of that menu soon enough.

My apologies; I got distracted there. Enjoy the show tonight. If you don't like it, you can just wait for a commercial and turn away. Oh wait... Hmmm, I guess there is a strategy behind tonight's show!
