WWE RAW - April 5, 2004
Venue : Toyota Center
City, State : Houston, Texas
Preview :
Less than two weeks before Backlash, RAW comes to you from Houston where it is expected that Triple H will be in anything but a friendly mood. Last week, Triple H suffered a staggering upset loss when he was pinned by RAW newcomer Shelton Benjamin to end the evening. The night was nearly a complete disaster for Evolution as Ric Flair & Batista appeared to lose the World Tag Team Championship to Chris Benoit & Shawn Michaels. Only a reversal by referee Johnny Nitro allowed Evolution to keep the World Tag Team Championship ... or it could have been one of the worst nights imaginable for the foursome!
How will Triple H react to the loss? What's in store for Shelton Benjamin after the biggest win of his career? Find out on RAW!
Also, last week, several announcements were made concerning Backlash as Triple H was added to the World Heavyweight Championship Match to make it a Final Encounter Triple Threat Match with Chris Benoit and Shawn Michaels. It was also announced that Mick Foley will meet Randy Orton for the Intercontinental Championship in a Street Fight/Hardcore Match where Evolution will be banned from ringside. Christian and Chris Jericho will have a WrestleMania rematch, and Edge and Kane will meet as well. What other developments concerning Backlash will happen? Watch RAW to find out!
All of this and more on RAW at 9/8 CT on Spike TV!
