The following is the Offical WWE.com Preview for the December 3 Edition of RAW from North Charleston, SC:
RAW will immediately be Jericho tonight in North Charleston, S.C., as Chris Jericho will kick off the show. After helping cost Randy Orton his chance to put Ric Flair into retirement last week, Y2J was granted a WWE Championship Match against the Legend Killer at Armageddon.
What will Jericho have to say about his upcoming title match? And does Orton have revenge in mind for Jericho just weeks before Armageddon?
Last week, Jeff Hardy learned that he would face Triple H, a Superstar he respects and admires, in a potential career-defining showdown at Armageddon. But before that match, he will defend his Intercontinental Championship against the monstrous Snitsky. Will the Master of the Swanton Bomb be able deal the snaggle-toothed ogre his first pinfall loss of 2007 and continue buildng momentum going into Armageddon?
Mr. Kennedy has made no secret that he despises Shawn Michaels and he believes that he should step aside and allow him to take his place among WWE’s elite. With their match at Armageddon less than two weeks away, the loudmouth from Green Bay, Wis. will be out to prove his superiority over The Showstopper by running the gauntlet against some of his former opponents. Who will be these blasts from HBK’s past?
Finally, Mr. McMahon has issued the ultimatum that if Ric Flair loses, he will be forced to retire. Each match the "Nature Boy" competes in could be his last. Will there be another test awaiting the legendary 16-time World Champion tonight on Raw?
For answers to all of these questions, tune into Monday Night Raw, live on USA, 9/8 CT.
Here is what is confirmed for RAW (also expect some build-up to RAW XV and Armageddon):
- Chris Jericho To Kick Off The Show
- Intercontinental Championship: Jeff Hardy (c) Vs. Snitsky
- Mr. Kennedy To Run A Gauntlet of Shawn Michaels’ Former Opponents
Also, don’t forget that ECW will air on a Thursday instead of a Tuesday this week. It will be the same time and same channel, but a different night. They will be doing the same for the December 25 edition of ECW.
