"FIve new Raw Superstars..."

...will debut this week.

Hot on the heels of the 'three amigos' being cut from the roster. The five in question are Maria, one of the Raw Diva search contestants who is taking the role of backstage interviewer which has been vacant since Terri left.

Also, we have the long awaited debut of Simon Dean (aka Mike Bucci(aka Nova)), a decent addition to the roster, although I'm not convinced about the gimmick.

There is also a new tag team - Mohammed Hassan and Khosrow Daivari who are doing an old-school style arab gimmick. WWE will need to be very careful with this particular gimmick, as if they stray into terrorist baiting, it could cause whole heaps of cntroversy and alienate some of Vince's fan-base....

Finally, the not-so-new Viscera, who is apparently going to be an additional 'Problem Solver' for Christian. No word on yet as to whether the big man has signed a permanent contract or is just working a short-term deal.

Just a shame the Simon Dean debut didnt go well. (However he did get some heat from the crowd)

In all fairness to OVW, there are some very good trainers there who know the business inside out. However, as long as Vince only sends them bothc monkeys, there is not a lot they can do. A very wise man once said 'Don't waster your time trying to polish poo' and he was right.

he'll probably be another botch monkey the OVW churns out on a regular basis, just what the WWE needs

Apparently they are two guys who've been working the indies for sometime. Hassan is better know as Mark Magnus, who has been in OVW for some time now. Not sure who is playing the other guy.

On the subject of unknown people, does anyone know who on earth was playing CCC's bodyguard on last weeks Smackdown? I usually know who all the new faces on the roster 'really' are, but didn't recognise this guy at all.

computer problems, stupid thing keeps adding in those damn \ things. I'd have to have quite fat fingers to be able to accidentally hit the " ' " and " \ " keys at same time what with them being all the way across the keyboard from each other

Yes, it\s annoying isn\t it lakers? :P

Geez Vince going for the cheap heat at the moment

*ooooh you\'re fat*

*ooooh i\'m a Arab, therefore you shall hate me*


*yawns*

I'd rather have Gangrel than Viscera tbh.

The arab guys any good?

I think Viscera is on a one night only deal. I think that's what I read in the Raw report.

So when/why did vicera(sp) move from Smackdown and is Gangrel still there?
