Another Hell-in-the-Cell would be too soon.
In the real world, WWE believes that no matter what our race, religious creed or ethnic background in America, we all share the common bond of being Americans. American-Arabs are a part of the fabric of America, and they should be embraced by all of us.

Wouldn't they just announce Brock Lesnar's return by having him randomly attack someone out of nowhere? Like his original debut? Announcing someone's return seems like it would make the actual return anti-climactic. | thecubsfan

I could imagine Vince inserting himself as referee in Hogan/HBK. SummerSlam's drawing ability rests on that match, so I expect they'll do all they can to help it.

Unless Vince's announcement of Brock's return is immediately followed by Brock's actual return, or some other Brock appearance/interview-related event.
Have they mentioned Brock on TV yet?

Referee? I don't think so.
Matt/Edge? Possible.
Lesnar? Most Likely. To get a bidding war going that would end up in a SummerSlam contract signing thingy between Raw and Smackdown.

Or maybe Vince's announcement is that RAW is the "longest-running fictional program" in the history of television, surpassing Gunsmoke.

That's true. RAW takes the weekly, original show record tonight.

That's what I thought it might be. Does Spike have any control over Vince announcing he's leaving their network ON their network? That would be classic Vince- sticking it to SpikeTV.

What are the stipulations for this record? I would have thought The Simpsons would hold the record of longest-running fictional series, or do animated series not count?
If the announcement does have something to do with Brock, I think it would be fun if Vince came out to deliver some worked, BS announcement, only to be attacked and beat down by Lesnar. That should get Brock's return off to a rip-roaring start.

| #19 Posted on 1.8.05 1510.54 | Instant Rating: 10.00 | The WWE press release bases the claim on "most episodes of weekly fictional television". Enough qualifers to make it true, and still make it sound important.
I believe Gunsmoke still holds it for "most years" at 20.

The Simpsons can only have about 380 episodes tops, and that's being generous and assuming 24 episodes for each of 16 seasons.
