Even More on McMahon's Injury @ RAW, & Is Triple H Really Going to SD!?

The “tragic accident” as described on WWE.com that closed tonight’s Raw is an angle. It would appear to me that it is a re-visiting of the Vince McMahon death angle from last year, with McMahon now being disabled instead of killed. That’s just my guess as I haven’t heard anything yet about where the angle is heading. The McMahon death angle was shot almost exactly a year ago and was to continue over the entire summer last year before the angle was dropped after the Chris Benoit tragedy.
The angle gave WWE an out with the ‘McMahon Million Dollar Mania’ contest, as they almost immediately announced on their website following Raw that the contest has been suspended for the foreseeable future. The contest was supposed to help turn around ratings for WWE, which are at a 10 year low, however ended up being a flop.
This year’s draft allowed champions to bring their titles to whichever show they were drafted. In last year’s draft, Bobby Lashley was immediately stripped of his ECW title when he was drafted from ECW to Raw. (Thanks to John)
Triple H was drafted to Smackdown tonight, which would be the first time he would be a member of that brand since the brand extension happened. Triple H was drafted to Smackdown in 2004, however never appeared on Smackdown as by the time the next episode of Smackdown aired, Triple H was traded back to Raw in exchange for Booker T and the Dudley Boyz to go to Smackdown.
