Raw starts now!

We get highlights of Triple H and Kennedy vs. ECW from last week, with Randy Orton hitting the RKO after the match.

We’re live and the lights are out. Lights on and William Regal is in the ring. Lillian Garcia is there and sings “God Save The Queen!” Ha, I love it! Regal disapproves of the fans’ disrespect. He’s General Manager and King and could have them thrown out if he wants. He’s not bluffing. He picks on a random couple and has them thrown out. Mickie James is here and says it’s her brother and his girlfriend. “Regal sucks!” â” Joe Lewis arena. Regal threatens to throw Mickie out too. She pleads her case and he threatens to strip her⦠of her championship.

John Cena is in the house! He sends Mickie to the back and gets a mic. He’s back and is usually ready to raise some hell but he wants to talk to Regal man-to-man. He understands. He knows what it’s like to give your soul to these people and have them tell you “you suck”. Regal points out Vince endorsed him but Cena points out Vince is insane and has “a bunch of sexual fantasies you can’t even find on the internet.” Cena reads out complaints from fans. “This is WCW Thunder bad.” “I’m going to start a chant in every arena in the country saying “Fire Regal clap clap clap, fire Regal clap clap clap.”” Glorious.

Regal says he won’t turn out the lights tonight. He knows Cena wants revenge on Randy Orton, so the main event is Orton vs. Cena. Regal says if anyone gets involved in the match (like JBL) they will be suspended. Regal hopes he’s earned some respect.

Cena stops him leaving and says he’s not done. Cena points out we’re in the USA tonight. Cena says even God cannot save Regal if he keeps messing up. We’re in the Motor City and you got realize where we’re at. Cena has Lillian sing “Respect” by Aretha Franklyn.

Rody The Piper is here! He takes a seat at ringside.

72% of fans think Shawn Michaels has been telling the truth about his knee injury.

Chris Jericho is here. He shows us footage of Michaels injuring his knee at Backlash against Batista. Jericho says he didn’t buy it because he saw the look in Shawn’s eyes at Backlash and has been telling everyone who will listen that Shawn’s a fake. But last week, something happened that changed his mind. We see footage of last week’s tag match. This time, he saw the pain on Shawn’s face when he kicked John Morrison. He was wrong. He wants to tell Shawn he’s sorry. Jericho would understand if Shawn wanted to call off their match at Judgment Day and says he should because Jericho doesn’t want to face Shawn with a bad wheel. Shawn Michaels is out now, limping. Jericho won’t let Michaels get a word in, so Shawn says he’s not the one who needs to apologize. Shawn says for the first time in his career, he feigned an injury. He’s not hurt. Jericho’s not buying it. He thinks he’s playing mind games. Shawn told everybody he would do whatever it takes to win, and Jericho was right; he’s not hurt. Jericho says he’s starting to insult his intelligence. Jericho knows that he’s hurt and it doesn’t matter what Shawn says, or what he does⦠SWEET CHIN MUSIC! “Trust me when I tell you; I’m not hurt.”

“Take It All” by Zididada is the official Judgment Day theme song.

Jeff Hardy gets the biggest pop of the night so far! He’s back. It feels good to be back. He never wanted to be a way, but he made a mistake and he paid for it. Now he’s back, he has a lot of things to do. Like⦠his mic cuts off and William Regal is here. He says no one wants to hear him and he will be punished for his sins by facing this manâ¦

Jeff Hardy vs. Umaga

Dropkick through the ropes is followed up by a plancha over the top and down goes Umaga. Thrust to the ribs of Jeff, followed up by Umaga launching him into the barricade. Back in and a hard Irish whip sends Jeff down. Massive uppercut by Umaga now. Umaga goes to the second rope and connects with a headbutt. Umaga beats Jeff down in the corner now and goes for the ASSALANCHE⦠but misses. WHISPER IN THE WIND~! It gets 3!

Cade in now and boots JTG in the face. Murdoch back in but runs into a back elbow. Murdoch counters another sunset flip and gets 3!
