Charleston, South Carolina
Report By: Richard Trionfo of PWInsider.com
WWE RAW Opener:
We start off with a look back at last week’s episode of Raw when Chris Jericho decided to use some graphics to let Randy Orton know that he wanted a title match. Remember when Ric Flair was told by Vince McMahon that his career ends when he loses? Remember how Randy Orton vowed to end the career, but Ric Flair won thanks to help from Chris Jericho?
In the arena:
Chris Jericho comes to the ring and he says that when he came back he wanted to win the title, but Sanchico Marella put it right when he said that Jericho couldn’t rest on his laurels or butcher the English language. He had to anger, aggravate, and cost Orton a match against Ric Flair. He had to manipulate Orton like a puppet. After Raw, he got the answer from Randy Orton. Jericho says that he got a tingle in his pants from his phone because of WWE Mobile. We see Orton’s response to Jericho’s question after last week’s Raw. Jericho tells everyone to text his friends because at Armageddon there will be a new champion and it will be him. WWE Champion Randy Orton comes to the ring. He says that everything is about Chris Jericho. He tells Jericho that he thinks that got under his skin, but he gave Jericho the match because he knows that he can beat him. Over the last two years, he has beaten Shawn Michaels, Triple H, and John Cena. Jericho interrupts Orton and says that he used to brag about beating the Rock and Steve Austin in the same night to become the first Undisputed Champion. Jericho says that means nothing today. Orton might be devious, but so is he. Orton says that if Chris is going to be honest, he does not like Jericho one bit and he would wipe the smirk off Jericho’s face without breaking a sweat. Jericho says that he is ready for Orton. William Regal says that they shan’t be having anything happening because we will be seeing the main event from Armageddon. Regal says that each man will get to pick the other’s opponent tonight. Regal asks Orton who he wants to see Jericho wrestle. Orton says that if Jericho thinks he is so tough, he will face someone he has never wrestled before. It will be Umaga. Regal asks Jericho who he would like to see Orton face. Jericho thinks about it and he says that he will choose someone Orton has faced many times. Someone who has super kicked his head off many times. Randy Orton will wrestle Shawn Michaels.

The WWE Title is not on the line tonight, but Sweet Chin Music is legal. He has knocked Orton’s head off so many times...Ken Kennedy appears on the monitor and he says that Michaels needs to go over his match with Orton tonight, but he needs to think about his match at Armageddon against Mr. Kennedy.

Ken says that he invited three of Shawn’s greatest rivals to be guests tonight. Kennedy says that he wants to know more about Shawn Michaels the competitor and Shawn Michaels the man.

The winner of the match at Armageddon is for a WWE Title Match at the Royal Rumble. Regal points out that Triple H enjoys defeating people he hates, but maybe Triple H likes Jeff Hardy.
