They talk about their grievances and threaten to boycott all WWE events because of unsafe working conditions, unless Triple H resigns as WWE COO.* WWE champ Alberto Del Rio comes out and says that the Smackdown stars won't return to Raw as long as HHH is COO. He's here to show Smackdown what Raw will be missing this Monday.

After the match, Black Cara attacked Blue Cara.*Backstage, Matt Striker interviewed WWE Tag Team champions Air Boom, asking them why they walked out on Raw. They said it was a culmination of many things but until HHH steps down, the fans won't see Air Boom anywhere but Smackdown.*Jack Swagger and WWE United States champion Dolph Ziggler defeated WWE Tag Team champions Air Boom in a non title match. The champions were attacked as they made their entrance and were on the defensive for most of the match.*WWE Divas champion Beth Phoenix defeated Alicia Fox in 30 seconds.

But hang on- Triple H is COO of WWE, not just Raw. So how does boycotting Raw and not Smackdown make any sense?

This. Makes absolutely no sense.Judging by that write up the show sounds largely missable.

could this not be a means of getting the smackdown ratings up saying that all the superstars will be on smackdown

If I'm 9 years old right now, I think Air Boom are worthless jackasses. WTF are they doing with this thing?

Only if nobody actually turns up to Raw next week.

Exactly, Triple H is so much of a loved face that all the faces that walked out could now be hated. It better be worth it in the end.

LK's dream finally comes true on Monday. 2 hours of Triple standing in the ring talking for the whole show!

No it'll be 1 hour of HHH talking, then the main event of Cena vs Punk vs Sheamus vs anyone else who didn't walk out at the end of Raw (HHH as special guest ref).

There should really have been some angle with at least some guys giving HHH a chance to sort something on Raw next week. Right now the message is Raw next week only has HHH & maybe Orton going to turn up. Only thing they can logically do which would be a ratings killer is have some FCW/Indy guys turn up work matches and not need to explain why everyone who walked out is still at Raw.

if they do that they need a picket line and i want ppl like air boom swagger and the like to call everyone scabs

[Wrasslin]

As confusing as this whole thing is, despite how it's making certain faces (Air Boom) looked like complete idiots, it has actually got me very interested in watching Raw next week. So I suppose in that respect it's a good thing, but long term I can't see how this is benefiting anybody except the already established stars at the top.

Me and Trips would have the last laugh when it does a 8.something in the ratings.

The thinking behind it seems to be that with Teddy Long running things on Smackdown as General Manager then the talent feel a bit safer. Yes HHH is COO of the entire WWE but he is the main guy in charge of Raw, with Teddy Long taking charge of the Smackdown side of things. Dear god I hope this angle doesn't get screwed up!!

while this storyline has its flaws, we still have NO idea where this might be going and the idealistic part of me hopes that there is a real end-goal that the creative team are trying to reach, whether it be to set things in place for survivor series or somewhere beyond.all i know is that i was completely put off last year because of the guest host thing where raw was essentially the same show each week, but with the bad film/comedy special/cd being plugged being changed week-to-week (and all that bad comedy which came off it). right now they've built up punk, miz and truth really well, and are trying the same with del rio (though im not a fan personally). meanwhile, they have executed several really terrific moments/segments/images/promos in the process and are making use of social media in a way that they haven't before, to build stories, in between shows. they've also got some great mid-card talent like ziggler and sheamus who ive gotten into more, whereas last year i felt they were shoved down my throat.raw is no longer a chore to watch, and its nice to see several threads being sewn from various feuds/groups/tiers of the card to unite everything, rather than it being cena being the focus and nothing else really mattering. when everyone interacts with eachother, everyone looks big-time (unless they're really lacking in an area and aren't protected) or at least are helped.
