I'm just hoping that because it sounds that bad it turns out good?

So has Del Rio gone back as a heel now lol

So has Del Rio's epic face turn lasted all of 2 weeks? Maybe he's a face AND a heel? "I weel save Reecardo from 3MB and tag weeth the Brooklyn Brawler but I weel also run over Santa Claus! It ees my DESTINY!"

Pity they didn't do a 'Who ran over Santa?' storyline like they did with Stone Cold back in 1999.

A lumberjack frost match and a miracle on 34th street fight it's safe to say I won't be wasting any of my precious planner space on this!

ADR: 'I did it for the grinch'

Here's a different report on the main event:

John Cena defeated Alberto Del Rio (w/Ricardo Rodriguez) in a Miracle on 34th Street Fight in 12:30. There were wreaths, Christmas trees, and presents around the ring. It was like WCW Uncensored. Del Rio grabbed a mic and said what happened to Santa was an accident and he wasn't trying to hurt him. Cena unwrapped a present at ringside and found a chair, which he struck Del Rio with.

Ricardo slid a present to Del Rio, but he unwrapped it and found a pie. He tried to use it, but Cena ducked. They fought up the ramp and Cena unwrapped a monitor, which he struck Del Rio with. Del Rio opened another gift and found a teddy bear. Vince McMahon had to be cracking up somewhere. Cena hit Ricardo with a wreath and a box.

Cena struck Del Rio with a tree. He unwrapped a bowling ball and rolled it into Del Rio's yam bag. He screwed up his first bowl, so he did a retake. Cena opened another gift and found a fire extinguisher, which he sprayed at Del Rio. Santa (Mick Foley) came out and hit Ricardo with a sack of toys. Cena hit the Attitude Adjustment on Del Rio and got the win.

Santa gave Del Rio and Ricardo gifts despite what happened to him. Cena said it's a Christmas miracle and it's about forgiveness. Cena thanked the fans and the crew. He and Foley wished everyone a Merry Christmas. They handed out gifts to fans to close out the show.

Am I wrong to really want to see this because it sounds just so bad!

Dunno about that MtotheC, Del Rio killing Santa sounds pretty darned good and if Kane was dressed as the Christmas Creature for his match with Cody Rhodes then it's the best RAW of 2012

Really hope the fans started a "YOU CAN'T BOWL!" chant at this point.

Ricardo slid a present to Del Rio, but he unwrapped it and found a pie.
Cena opened another gift and found a fire extinguisher

Who the bejeezus sends pies and fire extinguishers as Christmas presents?

Does this description not make Cena seem a bit heelish? Wishful thinking?

All I want for Christmas is a Cena turn.

Hero wrote:Is it a pie shaped fire extinguisher?

Close, it's a fire extinguisher shaped pie. Dammit I just ruined the surprise!

Phew, I'm allergic to pie-shaped fire extinguishers but fire extinguisher shaped pies are my fave. They are easy to get mixed up on though.

I'd love after years of people calling for a Cena turn they did it on a live Smackdown in a Christmas match against Alberto Del Rio.

Sounds pretty awful but its the last one before xmas so you can't blame creative for thinking sod it its not important (which it isn't).

Would have been great if santa was throwing gifts out to the audience and the shield come down, powerbombed him through the announce table, grab a mic and say 'none of you have been good this year! this is another example of the injustice in this company!' i'd mark out tbh.

Screaming U can't C me at Santa then AAing him through his sledge as 5 year olds look on in agast.

Team 3D return and go all mae young on santa, meaning no xmas presents for anyone?

Wouldn't it be so like the WWE though?

Apparently The Rock has been confirmed for the 7th January Raw, same night that Punk faces Ryback in TLC.

Think someone is getting rockbottomed.

Man I hate Cena, every time he comes on I cringe, he's so cheesy

Already 14 minutes in and the fact that its Christmas is no excuse for how bad this could end up being

For Christmas Eve it wasn't a bad Raw.

Alberto Del Rio back to heel already, i mean really?

The Ryback vs CM Punk segment was a positive. TLC match on Raw in a few weeks, should be a decent match and the rock will be on that Raw i think so it is good build up to the Royal Rumble.

Another funny segment with Kane and Daniel Bryan

Where the hell were the shield?

I think that ADR was the accidental heel in this weeks episode. I dont think its him back to a heel full time.

Adam D wrote:I think that ADR was the accidental heel in this weeks episode. I dont think its him back to a heel full time.

True

But would of it been more logical to do someone like Damien Sandow, Cody Rhodes, Antonio Cessaro. Wouldn't it?

But that would involve the creative team showing continuity and sense, can you see where this then falls down?

There were some funny moments in a nonsense episode, including Darren Young's reaction to Santa being knocked out, Daniel Bryan and Kane's gift givings and the Teddy bear bit. Del Rio and Rodriguez do have good chemistry, they may actually stumble onto them two being quite funny heels that want to be liked.
