--------------------

I began writing RAW is Tito late last night starting at 11:45pm after a busy weekend and a busy Monday... I was dead tired by the time Midnight struck and it showed... I forgot to even mention Chris Jericho's 2nd appearance!

What do I think of it? Good for the WWE for keeping the anticipation alive. Sure, the crying was a bit odd, but by keeping his mouth shut, it's only going to make it worthwhile whenever he first speaks or acts beyond playing up the crowds. It's the simple act of making the fans want more.

Next week (1/16 RAW) = DO THE SAME THING.

Week after that (1/23 RAW) = DO THE SAME THING.

And then, when the moment is right at Royal Rumble 2012, Chris Jericho enters the ring during the Dolph Ziggler vs. CM Punk match and destroys CM Punk to allow Dolph Ziggler to win the WWE Title. Shazam, you have the Jericho vs. CM Punk feud that's been rumored to be happening at Wrestlemania 28 for a few weeks now.

Granted, I still wonder if CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho would actually happen at Wrestlemania 28. Both are pretty outspoken wrestlers as opposed to being "yes man" company men that nod their heads towards everything the McMahons preach. In fact, both guys learned most of their craft outside of the WWE and the WWE usually likes to mold their own talent. Punk and Jericho are popular and are great wrestlers against the conventional wisdom that the McMahon family is used to seeing wrestlers becoming successful. Thus, the ongoing anxiety whenever either one suddenly gets popular or is champion.

But I also wonder if there is a worry about Jericho vs. Punk upstaging the WWE's top 2 matches, Undertaker vs. Triple H and Rock vs. John Cena. Just remember who is one of the participants in the match and also, Vince McMahon likes to see his headlining matches being the ones most talked about. I believe, for example, that Vince doesn't like it when Ricky "the Dragon" Steamboat" vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage gets talked about as the match that "stole the show" at Wrestlemania 3 when Vince wants Hulk Hogan vs. Andre "the Giant" to be the strongest memory with fans from that show.

Don't doubt that if Jericho vs. Punk happens, it's given 10 minutes tops...

With my prediction here about Jericho helping Dolph Ziggler become WWE Champion, do you really think that I'd suggest that Ziggler would actually headline Wrestlemania as the RAW brand's champion? NO! I actually believe that the WWE is dead serious about making Rock vs. John Cena for the WWE Title. It's been rumored to be in discussion internally by the WWE for weeks and based on how poorly Survivor Series 2011 drew with the Rock, the WWE might feel that it needs added "sense of urgency" for the Rock vs. Cena match.

Thus, I predict that the Rock will enter the 2012 Royal Rumble and win it. John Cena will take care of Dolph Ziggler, possibly at Elimination Chamber 2012.

And I'll predict that the Rock defeats John Cena for the WWE Title at Wrestlemania 28...

How about them apples?

So just chill... Till the next episode...
