The stars will come out next week when the Superstars of Raw arrive at the Los Angeles STAPLES Center to witness a blockbuster night of action.

As promised by Mr. McMahon, Triple H and Shawn Michaels will be reunited as D-Generation X for one night only, and they will battle WWE Champion Randy Orton & Umaga. Will HBK and The Game bring back some DX magic on the West Coast, or will they crash and burn together in McMahon’s machinations?

And, as announced last week on Raw, “Stone Cold” Steve Austin will be in Los Angeles Monday night. Will The Texas Rattlesnake confront Santino Marella, who has been a constant tormentor and critic of the former WWE Champion’s performance in The Condemned? The former Intercontinental Champion’s mockery of Austin last week on Raw might have been the straw that broke the Rattlesnake’s back.

With Women’s Champion Beth Phoenix staking her claim as the most powerful Diva in WWE, who in the Diva locker room will stand up and challenge the Glamazon? Is there anyone even in her league? And after a successful, yet tenuous partnership last week in Philadelphia, will Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes ever reach the point of mutual respect?

We all will find out as Raw broadcasts from the valley of the stars at the STAPLES Center at 9/8 CT on USA Network.

The show starts off with a graphic in memory of the Fabulous Moolah, who passed away this weekend.

We hear the familiar music of the group that will be back together for one night only as Degeneration X comes to the ring. While Shawn does laps around the ring, Hunter tries to get the crowd to cheer louder. Shawn does the official DX mic handing to Hunter and Hunter takes it. Hunter asks the fans if they are ready . . . he means really ready . . . that would be really really ready. He tells everyone to . . . be interrupted by Hornswoggle McMahon’s music. Hornswoggle shows that he is wearing green tonight. Hunter says that was different but he tells Hornswoggle to go under the ring. Hunter tells Hornswoggle to shoo and then he asks Shawn if he has a run sheet for the show. Shawn goes through all of the merchandise that he has and plugs the website. Hunter has Hornswoggle look at the run sheet and he tells him to look at the first segment and how it says ‘DX promo’. It says that Hornswoggle is not on the show until the ‘short’ segment.

Before Hunter can tell people to suck it; he is interrupted by the Great Khali, with Runjin Singh. Shawn tells Hunter that before being turned into a human Slim Jim, pretend he is not here and move on. Hunter tells Khali to get in the back so he is a part of DX for tonight. Hunter speaks with an Indian dialect and Shawn tries to calm Khali down. It is finally time to . . .

be interrupted by Jonathan Coachman who walks to the ring. Coach says that he is shutting this nonsense down. The fans came to see action, not DX’s immature antics. Hunter calls Coach ‘George Jefferson’ and he tells Coach that maybe he will tell Runjin to tell Khali what Coach said about him earlier. Hunter tells Runjin what Coach said and Runjin cannot believe what he heard. Hunter tells Shawn to tell Runjin that is what Coach said because he cannot lie. Shawn says that is what Coach said. Runjin tells Khali and Khali chops Coach and he chases Coach to the back.

Hunter wants to know what that was. Shawn says that he does not know who wrote this garbage, but it is the worst thing since Katie Vick. Hunter says that he does not think anyone is writing this because everyone is on strike. We are finally told that it is time to suck it. We go to commercial.
