Questions for 4/27 WWE Raw (Season 2, Week 3)
(1) Who will be a winner in the longest match of the show?
(2) Who will be a winner in the shortest match of the show?
(3) Name one person involved in the longest talking segment of the show?
Answers for 4/27 WWE Raw (Season 2, Week 3)
(1) Randy Orton was technically the winner of the longest match on the show, as he defeated MVP by DQ after Shane McMahon interfered against him.
(2) Matt Hardy picked up the shortest match victory of the night with a win over Goldust in just over one minute via the loaded cast.
(3) The opening segment was well drawn out and easily the longest talking segment on the show. Check your scorecard for Randy Orton, Ted DiBiase, Cody Rhodes, Vickie Guerrero, or MVP to score one point for category three.
PYB Analysis: Oh, what a week. Everyone who entered this week's contest scored one point for Randy Orton or Vickie Guerrero as having the longest talking segment. However, no one picked Orton for the longest match victory and there were plenty of MVP picks for the category. So close. Also, plenty of Diva-related picks (naturally) for the shortest match, including heavy picks for Maryse and Santino(a). Unfortunately, Matt Hardy's victory trumped the eight-diva tag match for category two.
I had to make a scoring decision on this week's winner, as Christian Martin checked in with Randy Orton/Priceless as the category one pick, but Christian checked in five minutes after Raw started. Vickie didn't announce Randy vs. MVP until 15 minutes after Raw started, but I'm awarding 0.5 points to Christian for this week's PYB victory.
