RAW Report 9/18/06 Montreal

Lillian announces the WWE Champion John Cena. He comes out to mixed pop, though it seems like most of it negative. It's to be expected in Canada, especially Montreal (I'm not saying anything negative about the country or the city, it's just that Canada is Edge country and Montreal has a lot to bitch about since the 'Screw Job').
Cena grabs a mic and soaks up the reaction, grinning through it all. The more he grins the louder both the positive and negative get - mostly negative. He says it's chaos, absolute chaos! Normally he'd say tonight was going to be huge, but even with everything going on he's not himself tonight. More HUGE heat.
He says he needs to bottom line it for us. Last night he was hit in the head. A LOT. He doesn't know what time it is. He can't remember his name. "Wait, it's starting to become clear." Low and behold. He holds up his belt. "The Champ is here." Lots of negative reaction.
Calm down Jedis, I know there's a little unrest in the force. But this is big. He 'bottom lines' it for us again. So many different chants (mostly in French) you can't understand any of them.
Cena says after the past 9 months we've seen him take like 9000 spears, 3000 sneak attacks, 2000 hits to the head. 1000 jokes about Lita giving head. Someone getting thrown in a river, his father getting slapped. And now the story of Edge and Cena is over.
Edge's music hits and he comes out to HUGE pop. Lita's on his arm. He asks if Cena actually believes all the crap he's saying. It's not over. Edge has a rematch claus in his contract and he will be back to collect his third WWE Title.
Cena says whatever. But if Edge wants to talk to him like that right now, Edge has two options.
1- Since he's the Rated 'R' Superstar he can have a one man party and go screw himself.
2- He can anty up and they can have a rematch of last night.
Edge says that Cena must think he has a huge desire to win his title back in Canada. Huge pop from the crowd. Edge says this isn't Canada. It's the cheesy, wine sniffing, inbred cousin of Canada. Huge heat.
Last night he took more damage than most people take in their lives. He took an FU through two tables. He could have done what these people would have done, waved the white flag and said I surrender. But he didn't. Huge heat fromthe crowd.
Cena says he's impressed. It only took 30 seconds for all these people to go from loving Edge to hating him. Huge cheer for Cena. Cena says if he's not down there to throw down, what the hell does he want?
Edge says he lost his first TLC Match, he lost in his hometown, he lost in front of his mom. Every time Cena tried to say something Edge yelled at him to shut up. He looked actually pissed getting right up in Cena's face slapping Cena's mic away. He, most importantly lost his title. Of course he came out here with a backup plan.
Cena hits Edge and then turns around and nails Murdoch as he rolls in the ring. Cade gets the upper hand and the three of them attack Cena. Edge says his backup plan is the team who beat down DX last week.
DX comes out and the three heels stop attacking Cena. Edge rolls from the ring. DX attacks Cade and Murdoch until they leave the ring. Cade and Murdoch flee. The three in the ring scream for more.

Coach comes out to the stage and introduces himself - as if we don't know who he is at this point. As his executive Assitant he will do as Vince would do. So they will have a 6 mad tag match. It will be Edge, Cade & Murdoch against Cena & DX.

Maria is there to say something to Vince. She says she hopes Vince is okay. She's been watching Vince's DVD. She hasn't gotten to the good stuff yet like when Vince was the quarterback for the Bears and he won that Superbowl thingy.
But she does have one question. When DX shoved his face up Big Show's... Was it like going to the Grand Canyon? Or was it like Batman going into the Bat Cave? Or was it just really really stinky?

An airhorn blows and the Spirit Squad pushes Maria out of the way. They say they hope they are okay. But they were able to retain their Tag Titles last night. Also Johnny challenged Flair to a one on one match - next. They do a little cheer for Vince.
