And the name of the show is Monday : Night Raw." WWE 主席批評擁有金塊隊和百事中心的 Kroenke Sports 在比賽撞期事件發生時沒有給予 更多的幫助。「他們和我們的場地衝突，但幾乎沒有給個道歉。」McMahon 星期三說。 「他們沒為我們做任何事，而媒體在談某個人該寫張支票。他們不想寫任何東西，他們 只要給我們星期日晚上的時間。但那場秀的名字是 Monday Night Raw。」 : However, Kroenke Sports claims McMahon had previously agreed to a deal to : shift the event to Sunday. 但 Kroenke Sports 聲稱 McMahon 原本同意把比賽改到星期日。 : "We negotiated in good faith with Vince and believed we had a deal in : principal as of Tuesday," Kroenke Sports executive vice president Paul : Andrews said. "In fact, it was so clear to us that we did that we asked Vince : to do a joint press release. He said, 'Paul, I have no problem with a joint : press release.'

We find out by a press announcement today by Vince, who I : believe is the master of propaganda, that he's moving the event to the : Staples Center. He didn't even contact us to tell us he hadn't accepted the : deal we negotiated the night before, so we're quite shocked, frankly." 「那是星期二的事。我們今天發現 Vince 的記者會說他要把比賽移到湖人主場 Staples Center。我相信 Vince 是個宣傳大師。他沒聯絡我們說他不接受我們前晚的共識，所以 老實說我很震驚。」 : WWE executive vice president Shane McMahon, at a press conference at Staples : Center, said the Kroenke offer came too late. WWE 執行副總 Shane McMahon 在 Staples Center 的記者會上表示 Kroenke 的提議來得 太晚。 : "They tried to be amicable but we're really at such a loss of words because : we were expecting a capacity crowd. Had sold 11,000 as of last week," he : said. "We've been on sale since August so everyone knew we were coming. We : built everything around it. That's what we do. We promote and build the : event." 「他們試著友善些，但我們已預期會有可觀的群眾。我們上星期賣了一萬一千張的票了 。」他說。「我們八月就開始賣票所以每個人都知道我們要來了。我們打造了一切。」 : Vince McMahon said Staples Center called and offered use of its building and : that his organization will return to Denver for an event at the Coliseum on : Aug. 7.

Vince McMahon 說 Staples Center 打來提供場地，而他們的活動也會在 8月 7日回到 丹佛的 Coliseum。McMahon 說很多地方包括麥迪遜花園廣場都想提供場地。他選擇 星期二晚上也沒預定活動的 Staples Center 辦第二晚的活動。 : McMahon said it was important to have Raw be shown live on its normal Monday : night slot on USA Network -- where it will go head-to-head against the : Nuggets-Lakers game on ESPN. He previously vowed he would hold the event in a : parking lot if need be. McMahon 說比賽辦在原來的星期一晚上是很重要的，而這天由USA Network 轉播的比賽 也會和 ESPN 轉播的金塊-湖人對戰打對台。他原本還誓言如果有需要的話就在停車場 辦活動也 OK。 後面恕刪 --
