Planning Somoa hurt?

One week after being destroyed by Umaga on RAW, Shawn Michaels will
step into the ring with monster from Samoa in a singles match.
Umagas manager, Armando Alejandro Estrada, gives Michaels respect
regarding his illustrious career and WWE accomplishments, but warns
him that hes never faced anyone as dangerous as the Samoan
Bulldozer.
The Heartbreak Kid, a Legend, one of the all-time
greats
multi-time WWE Champion, pero [but] hes never faced a man,
a savage, a beast, a killer like the man from the Isle of Samoa.
Come Monday night, HBK is going to find out what it feels like to
take the wrecking ball, said Estrada.
With Triple H away from the arena last week on RAW, Shawn Michaels
was left to fend for himself. After Mr. McMahon called in from his
daughters bedside she was in labor in Connecticut he informed
his Executive Assistant Jonathan Coachman via cell phone that
Coachman would be taking on HBK in singles competition. Michaels
erupted in laughter at the announcement
but he wouldnt be laughing
for much longer.
He had no trouble handling Coachman in the match and even stood
tall when all five members of the Spirit Squad tried to rush the
ring and take him out. What HBK wasnt expecting and what left
his health in doubt was an attack by Umaga.
The question has been raised before, but after last weeks display
of brutality, it needs to be asked againcan anyone in WWE stop
Umaga?
Amigo, has anyone stopped Umaga yet? No. said Estrada. Is anyone
going to stop Umaga? No. You see it week after week; nobody has
been able to stop the Samoan Bulldozer, Uuuuuuuuumaga, Ha
Ha!
Estrada isnt embellishing on his clients behalf, either. Umaga
has been undefeated since debuting on RAW in April. Hes destroyed
high profile Superstars like Ric Flair and John Cena (Cena was
pinned after a distraction from WWE Champion Edge). His latest
assault on HBK was perhaps his most vicious to date; blindsiding
Michaels and driving him into the mat with an evolved version of a
Samoan Drop and then delivered a deadly Samoan Spike. (Watch the
video)
Triple H will be at RAW this week, and rest assured, hell be
keeping a watchful eye on the match. That, says Estrada, doesnt
faze himor Umaga.
Amigo, hey, if Triple H wants to stick his big nose in our
businessDX, were not afraid of you amigos. Were not afraid of
you, boasted Estrada.
Umaga broke into the top 10 of the Power 25 last week, and with a
win against someone as established as Shawn Michaels, Umaga has a
chance to move further up the list.
Amigo, by far it would be the biggest feather in my, Ha! Ha!,
straw hat, said Estrada. Pretty soon [hell] be on his way to No.
1. Does that surprise you, amigo? Huh?
The timing of Umagas attack on Michaels has raised some eyebrows.
For weeks, Triple H and Shawn Michaels have embarrassed Mr. McMahon
by making him the butt of their pranks. The Chairman has vowed
revenge against his two rivals. Was Umaga approached by Mr. McMahon
to help the Chairman destroy D-Generation X? Or, did the Samoan
Bulldozer send a message on his own to the Superstars of RAW?
What about HBK? How healthy will he be on Monday after the beating
he sustained? Can he recover in time to defeat Umaga?
To get the answers to the mystery surrounding this situation, watch
RAW at 9/8 CT on the USA network.
