WWE RAW 5/11: "Place your Bets" Scoreboard after Monday's show - New first-place leader in Week 5 May 12, 2009 - 6:05:25 PM
(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 5/11 WWE Raw (Season 2, Week 5)
(1) MVP and Kofi Kingston picked up the longest match victory on this week's show in a match barely over six minutes. Not a long match, but Raw hasn't been featuring much wrestling these past few weeks.
(2) We have another technicality to this week's bizarre Raw main event, as Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Ted DiBiase were scheduled for the TV main event against Batista that lasted just under 1:00 for the shortest match of the show and was won by Team Orton via DQ. However, only Orton wrestled and showed up for the match. But, I'm awarding a point for Orton, Cody, or Ted.
(3) The opening segment of the show went nearly 15 minutes and featured the usual suspects. Randy Orton, Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase, Batista, or Vickie Guerrero will all score points in category three this week.
Caldwell's PYB Analysis: Everyone picked up a point who played in this week's PYB challenge, as everyone picked Randy Orton for category three. There's a gimmee each week, but the challenge is picking the other two not-so-gimmee categories. Props to WOLF, Joedream, Christi, and Fobos for scoring an additional point with picks of MVP or Kofi Kingston for category one. Despite all the picks for Orton in (3), no one double-dipped in (2) for Orton winning the shortest match of the show.
