McMahon(TM) to Give Fans $1 Million Cash on Monday Night RAW(TM)

STAMFORD, CT, May 29, 2008 (Canada NewsWire via COMTEX) ----Mr. McMahon, Chairman of World Wrestling Entertainment(R: 74.01, +0.75, +1.02%), promised that Monday Night RAW would end with something extraordinary, and true to his word, it did. In a blockbuster announcement, the Chairman said he will give away $1 million of his personal fortune to show appreciation to the viewers of Monday Night RAW in North America, which includes the enthusiastic fans of RAW in Canada!

McMahon promised that the details of his million dollar cash giveaway would be revealed on RAW next week. One thing is guaranteed; over the weeks to come, the great fans of Monday Night RAW will not just walk away with the best action on television; but some will walk away richer thanks to McMahon. "I think the fans deserve something epic, something that is truly monumental," said McMahon. "This is not a hoax. This is not a trick of some kind. This is from my own personal bank account. I'm going to give away cash money in the sum of $1 million."

That was not the only bombshell that McMahon dropped on the RAW audience. The Chairman also announced that a Draft will take place at the end of June, and that all performers from RAW, SmackDown(R: 74.01, +0.75, +1.02%) and ECW(TM: 99.21, +1.42, +1.45%) will be eligible. Every Superstar, Diva and announcer can be drafted to any brand, and the unpredictable nature of the Draft is sure to keep the respective locker rooms abuzz in the coming weeks. "I think our fans deserve new Superstars, hot new Divas, new rivalries," said McMahon in announcing the upcoming Draft.

Since the Raw ratings were the lowest in 10 years, just incase you didn't see the announcement, here is the link.  Maybe giving away 1 million dollars will help.  I think not, maybe going back to giving wrestling fans - pure wrestling might help even better !!!
