411's Live Raw Coverage 8.18.08: Shane and Stephanie's Big Announcement
Posted by Daniel Wilcox on 08.18.2008
Mike Adamle comes out. He has announcements to make. Later tonight, CM Punk will go one on one with Chris Jericho! Speaking of Punk's title, Shane McMahon and Stephanie McMahon have asked him to make the announcement that at Unforgiven, a new WWE Championship concept will be presented. 5 Superstars will compete in a 20-minute match, with the title being able to change hands as many times as you like inside that 20 minutes! The participants are… CM Punk, Kane, JBL, John Cena and Batista. This match is called the Championship Scramble!

How fucking stupid! Let's turn the WWE title into the hardcore title now.

that concept is just like hardcore 24/7 rules. sounds like this will make the title mean less then it already does

So is this how they're going to give Kane more title wins over his lengthy career?
I can see the future contract signing:
Vince: Well Glenn, we're going to offer you X amount of dollars.
Kane: Ya kno, Vince, I've given you all I can for over 15 years and still have only had one World title reign. And when I say that, you know the ECW title doesn't count.
Vince: HAHA well of course ECW doesn't count, but what about the scramble, you held the belt 9 times that night.
Kane:Yea, but Vince...
Vince: 9 times, Glenn, 9 times.
Punk's reign over at Unforgiven? it's looking pretty likely, when Cena AND Batista are there. TSK TSK

NO BUYS!

the concept can be as gay as 24/7. But they could do a lot with it. Maybe have no pins happen in 20 minutes, Punk's a "survivor" after all.

In short... we want to take the title off of Punk... so we made a way to screw him nicely.

I don't see anything wrong with the match. It has the potential to be real exciting.
Posted By: William (Guest) on August 18, 2008 at 10:02 PM
Sounds like a TNA concept.

From what it sounded like, only the person who has the title at the end will be OFFICIALLY recognized as the Champion
Posted By: guest (Guest) on August 18, 2008 at 10:07 PM
brilliant way to keep punk over he takes it in the end, but once again vince has no respect for the former wcw title

what the hell are they doing tonight thats the hardcore battle royal all over again and that was fine for that title but for the world title are you kidding?
Posted By: Guest#1271 (Guest) on August 18, 2008 at 10:08 PM
that would be an insult to TNA Jay but WWE has done this before with their meaningless titles.
Posted By: Guest#3814 (Guest) on August 18, 2008 at 10:10 PM
ha, "never been done before", Shane and Steff must have forgotten about the Harcore Ivitational
Posted By: dvs (Guest) on August 18, 2008 at 10:25 PM
