Monday Night Raw

Commentators: Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler
We continue on the Road to Wrestlemania in what Id assume will be a plot advancing show which is ok. The Chamber is in less than two weeks so there isnt much to say as far as adding new stuff goes. Bear in mind that Ive seen part of this show last night but am reviewing it on Tuesday/Wednesday, so if there are some odd things said its because I know whats coming. Sorry about that. Lets get to it.
Nickelback opens us up.
Heres Vince, and according to Cole its the first time weve seen him in almost a year. Where do I begin?
1. He wrestled at Wrestlemania on March 28, 2010. Well call that 11 months when its really more like 10 and a half.
2. He was there for Nexus. Nexus began on June 1 and attacked Vince on June 22. Well go very conservative again and call that June 7. That means we have eight months.
3. He was on the November 1 episode of Raw, which may be a stretch as he was in a coma/dream sequence. Still though, he was there. That would be three months
In other words, at minimum it was three months and at most it was eight months. That means its closer to half a year than a year, but who cares about things like time right?
Vince starts talking about Wrestlemania and how after the Super Bowl is over, its time for Wrestlemania. Apparently next week were going to meet the host of Wrestlemania who has set a record or a streak of some sort. Im kind of intrigued but it better not be Justin Bieber.
Anyway as Vince is about to leave, heres Randy Orton. We get a clip of him punting Harris last week and running from Nexus and their beatdown. Orton wants to talk about Punk and how after last week theyre not even. Before Orton gets going though heres Punk. Punk sits down on the stage and says that of course it isnt over. He asks if Orton wants to know why he cost Randall the title at the Rumble.
Punk shows a clip from Unforgiven 2008 with Punk as World Heavyweight Champion and Orton getting in his face and calling Punk a fluke. Legacy jumped him and Orton punted him in the head, which made Punk have to forfeit the title due to an injury. Yes, THIS IS CONTINUITY! They did something back then and now were going to get revenge as a result of it. That is huge as something is happening and theres a reason for it. That doesnt happen anymore, which is a huge thing.
Punk says that hes been patient but now wants his revenge. As long as theyre on the same show, Orton will never be world champion again. He isnt waiting for Elimination Chamber but is going to eliminate Orton right now. Instead of running like someone intelligent, Orton stands in the ring and gets beaten down.
After a little bit Punk starts talking and Orton breaks free for a bit but is eventually tied in the ropes. Cena chant starts up but Orton is all alone. Punk yells at him a lot but Orton gets a headbutt and kick in. The kick hits Punk in the face and breaks his nose legit. Theres blood coming out of it and its swollen badly. If its not broken its bruised badly. The Nexus puts Orton on Punks shoulders for the GTS to end the segment.
Mason Ryan vs. R-Truth
This was set up by an E-Mail during the break. Apparently all members of Nexus will face people in the Chamber, finishing with Punk vs. Cena in the main event. This is Ryans in ring debut in WWE. Truths song is freaking catchy to say the least. And now we get the important part of the night. GREEN BAY WISCONSIN! WHATS UP??? Cole: Truth were in Milwaukee! This would become the running joke for the night.
The fans totally turn on Truth, booing the hell out of him and chanting MILWAUKEE. Truth is clearly shaken here, messing up his sunset flip out of the corner as well as the spinning forearm. Its understandable as he hasnt been a heel in years. Truth may have hurt his knee on the missed forearm. Ryan slams him into the ropes three times and then locks on a Brock Lock (Ryan bends Truths leg around Ryans head) for the submission at 2:23.
Post match Ryan gets a chair but the referee grabs it away. With another Milwaukee chant going, the hold goes on again and the decision is reversed. This would be stupid based on the fact that Vickie said a referees decision cant be reversed but whatever.
The Did You Know says more people attended live events last year than the Super Bowl, Stanley Cup Finals, NBA Finals and X Games combined. You mean having like 400 shows a year was enough to pass all those others? REALLY???
Back from a break Punk congratulates Ryan on hurting Truth. Later tonight its McGillicutty vs. Morrison and Otunga vs. Sheamus.
Eve Torres/Tamina/Gail Kim vs. Bella Twins/Melina
The Bellas and Eve look great here. Even Gail looks kind of good. Natalya is on commentary for this and has a shot at Eve next week. Gail tries to fight both Bellas which fails pretty badly. Off to Melina now as this isnt anything special at all. Heres Eve as Natalya and Cole get into an argument. Standing moonsault gets two on Melina. Everything breaks down and a spinning neckbreaker (Moss Covered Three Handled Family Credenza for you technical people out there) ends Melina at 2:22. This was pretty worthless.
2-21-11 promo, this time with the Johnny Cash song Aint No Grave Can Hold My Body Down.
We talk about Aaron Rodgers having the title belt on his shoulder during the celebration. Allegedly Ric Flair gave him that but Im not sure how much I buy that at all.
Video about the Chamber match.
John Morrison vs. Michael McGillicutty
McGillicutty takes him down early to start us off. To say the crowd is dead for the early parts here is an understatement to say the least. McGillicutty goes after the arm and tries to slam Morrisons hand into the post by crushing it with the steps. The dropkick to the steps misses though and here comes John. Flash Kick sets up the Starship Pain to end it at 2:30. Great looking moonsault there.
As Morrison is leaving, Punk is waiting on him with some kind of spray that goes into Morrisons eyes. Punk also kicks him in the head. Medics check him as we go to a break.
After a break heres Miz in wrestling gear. He says that last week he was pulling for Lawler and asks him to get in the ring. Miz says it wasnt because he thought Lawler would be the easiest targets because theyre all easy wins for the Miz. Lawler used to be a loudmouth and everyone would listen to Jerry. Miz says he patterned his career after Lawler and is a modern day Jerry Lawler. Id say Roddy Piper but thats just me.
Now its him on talk shows and now its him that people want to watch. Hes also WWE Champion which Lawler has ever been. Jerry says theyre not mirror images because hes an original. Miz shows us a clip from last week where Jerry punched DiBiase which looked great. Miz says that was a sucker punch so Lawler says Miz is a sucker and sucks too. Wow that was bad.
Lawler says hes never competed at Wrestlemania or been WWE Champion. He says no one knows what it means to do either of those things. Lawler is going to win the title and go to Wrestlemania. Miz goes for his catchphrase but Lawler cuts him off by saying awful and theres your chant. The fight is on and Lawler puts Riley down. Cue DiBiase for the save and Bryan for the second save. The GM makes the obvious match.
Daniel Bryan/Jerry Lawler vs. Ted DiBiase/The Miz
Riley is on commentary with Cole here. Bryan vs. DiBiase to start. Who would have believed say two years ago that on Raw we would be seeing the number one contender Jerry Lawler teaming with Bryan Danielson facing Ted DiBiase and the WWE Champion the Miz? Think about that for a minute. Miz sends King to the floor as we take a break.
Back with Miz holding a chinlock on Lawler but theres a quick tag to Bryan. If I hadnt been looking at the monitor I wouldnt have known it as the reaction more or less didnt exist. Running clothesline in the corner to Bryan gets two for Miz. Off to Lawler (small pop) and DiBiase who is in trouble early. DDT gets two for Lawler. Everything breaks down as Miz is taken out by Bryan. The middle rope punch ends DiBiase at 9:05. Lawler wins again.
Sheamus vs. David Otunga
Holy squash Batman! As Sheamus is on the way to the ring Josh interrupts him and asks his opinion on Mark Henrys comments. Sheamus hasnt heard them but apparently Henry says that Sheamus should be out of the Chamber and Henry should be in. Sheamus says Henry hasnt done anything in 14 years and should only be in if its a cake eating contest.
Otunga comes out but heres Henry instead. The brawl is on with Otunga only trying to get in once and getting drilled. A pair of Worlds Strongest Slams ends Sheamus as I guess theres no match. Otunga stands over the fallen Sheamus but heres ..Alberto? Well he had to be here at some point I suppose.
Alberto Del Rio vs. Santino Marella
This should be short but likely wont be. After a break and before Santinos entrance, Alberto says it was his destiny and all that jazz. Santino throws Alberto over the top in a funny bit. Was there ever a bell? If there was I didnt hear it. Santino chant is the loudest of the night so far which Im not sure how to take. Theres the bell. Kozlov isnt here due to the beating he got from Corre the other night.
Santino sends him over the top again and talks some trash. Back in and Alberto of course takes over as hes supposed to. He sends Santino into the post and the arm work is on. Running enziguri in the corner misses but the Cobra misses. Del Rio gets a Codebreaker to the arm and seconds later the Armbreaker ends it at about 2:59. Just an extended squash with some minor comedy thrown in so no rating.
We recap the Nexus taking out the Chamber competitors so far tonight.
Here are Vickie and Dolph for no apparent reason other than were talking about Smackdown. She says exactly what you would expect her to say until Cenas music cuts her off. He references Christina Aguliera butchering the national anthem at the Super Bowl. He also apologizes for R-Truth, saying that Truth celebrated a bit too much because were in Milwaukee.
Cole morphs into the anti-Cena fan, saying its the same stuff every time. Cena starts talking about the last time they were in a ring and Cena kissed Vickie. Vickie and Dolph threaten to leave if the fans boo and Cena says you heard them, prompting huge heat. He starts up a GO PACK GO chant, which is a local favorite and is enough to get them to go.
Cena talks about what Nexus has been up to tonight and gets another jab at Truth. They beat Truth up so badly that he forgot what city hes in. The flaw in Nexus plan though is that Cena is still here. He starts using the phrase Elimination Chamber instead of ass. Theres something awesome about people saying what theyre planning and seeing the Mania sign over their shoulders. Thats always cool to see.
Another 2-21-11 ad, the same as before.
John Cena vs. CM Punk
Cena keeps looking at the entrance during Punks entrance. Nice little touch there. Punk hammers him into the corner to start as he controls early. All Punk so far. A charge in the corner misses though as this crowd is pathetic. Cena cant get momentum going though as he has to keep looking for Nexus. Out to the floor with Punk landing a clothesline from the apron to keep control.
Back in the ring and its the knee and clothesline out of the corner to put Cena down. The crowd is DEAD. Punk says Cena cant see him. GTS is countered. You can see some stuffing in Punks nose. Cena pounds him down in the corner and the referee says hell disqualify Cena if he keeps that up. Cena shrugs and drills Punk low for the DQ at about 5:00.
Post match Nexus of course comes out with Ryan guarding Punk. McGillicutty and Otunga corner Cena but Lawler hands Cena a chair and house is cleaned. Cena stands tall to end the show.

Tuesday
TNA might start making movies. Are you kidding me people?
Raw got a 3.3 which is down from last week.
NXT
Date: February 8, 2011
Location: Resch Center, Green Bay, Wisconsin
Commentators: Josh Matthews, Todd Grisham
Its elimination night I believe which is probably a good thing. I wish it was Curtis that was gone but hes the chosen one so itll probably be Bateman or Saxton. Anyway, this should be decent enough as the show has gotten a lot better recently. I like them being in the Super Bowl town because it gives us a nice mini-theme tonight possibly. Lets get to it.
We open with a recap of the season so far which has been a lot better after the first two went out.
Striker is on the stage and were doing the joust thing called Rock-Em Sock-Em this week. First match is Bateman vs. Curtis. Bateman is in the final. Winner gets two immunity points by the way. Brodus pulls a Michael Tarver and goes after Saxton so its a DQ. Bateman vs. Saxton is the final. Theres a controversial finish but Saxton wins. To be fair its very close. Naturally we have to do it one more time. Surprisingly enough the rematch announcement gets a pop. Saxton wins again to get two points. That gives Curtis 3, Bateman and Saxton 2 and Clay 0.
We recap the Talk the Talk Challenge from last week including the Turd Ferguson chant.
Derrick Bateman vs. Byron Saxton
No intro here as we end the package and its off to the match. Bateman works on the arm and gets a nice kick to the back to take over. Apparently Ricardo is the official new pro for Del Rio. Please tell me that it would be Alberto getting the shot and not Ricardo. Saxton takes over as we talk about the Dazed and Confused shirt that Ziggler is wearing.
Bateman fights back and gets a dropkick in the corner and a clothesline for two. Josh says whoever loses here is gone. Saxton gets a small package for two. Bateman grabs a modified LeBell Lock (closer to a Crossface) to get the win at 4:30.
Time for another challenge worth 3 points (Curtis 3, Bateman and Saxton 2 and Clay 0). This time were going to more or less play the Price is Right. Various people are going to model things and the rookies have to guess the retail price. My goodness theyve turned their show into a commercial! First up is the 50 Greatest Superstars of All Time DVD presented by AJ from last season. The DVD is 34.95??? SWEET DAMN thats insane! Brodus is closest.
Naomi is up next and presents WWE Kids Magazine. By presents I mean holds up and smiles if youre wondering. Clay is closest with $1. Oh ok you cant go over. That makes sense. AJ is back again with a foam World Heavyweight Championship. Saxton gets it right on the nose at $19.99.
Bateman says he said the same thing which he didnt. This is rather stupid if you didnt get it but its surprisingly entertaining. Naomi has the History of the WWE Book. Clay wins with 23 dollars. Saxton went just over with 23.95. Ziggler (I think): Thats the first time Saxton has ever been over!
Clay and Curtis are tied for immunity. My what luck that they have a match later.
Video about the Road to Wrestlemania going through the Elimination Chamber.
Truth is with Curtis in the back and they talk about the accusations of Truth saying Curtis has a big head behind his back. Truths leg seems to be fine after the attack last night.
Brodus Clay vs. Johnny Curtis
This is the main event. Apparently Josh thinks he gets to decide who gets immunity. The superstars make fun of Truth not knowing the right town last night. Curtis hammers away to start to control. Clay takes over with a firemans carry into a hot shot. Nice overhead suplex gets two for Clay. The match drags badly so the Turd chant gets going again. Ziggler eggs it on and continues to be one of the funniest parts of this show.
Dolph leaves and Brodus hammers away. Curtis gets a slingshot legdrop to the back of Clays neck for two. Dolph is back and Grisham hits on Maryse who is at the top of the stage now. Top rope dropkick gets no cover as Clay is in the ropes. Brodus gets a shot to the throat using the ropes and a powerslam ends it at 6:22. The announcers called it a bulldog slam because theyre not very intelligent.
2-21-11 promo again with the grave line from last night.
Clay and Curtis get 20 seconds to say why they should get immunity. Curtis says its because the Packers Rule. Curtis says the Steelers should have won. Why? They scored less points. Naturally Curtis wins the live crowd approval and gets immunity. Damn it I hate this show. He just got beat clean so lets give him the advantage. Saxton is out and cant talk due to tears. Ah ok there it is.
Saxton says that its ok and everyone makes mistakes. Hell forgive them though and will be back. Ziggler goes off on him in a great rant to make Saxton mad. Masters tells Saxton to punch him. Instead he points at Ziggler to end the show.
Results
Byron Saxton won the Rock-Em Sock-Em Challenge
Derrick Bateman b. Byron Saxton LeBell Lock
Brodus Clay won the WWEshop.com Challenge
Brodus Clay b. Johnny Curtis Powerslam
Byron Saxton was eliminated in 4th place

Boring day today.

Episode Title: Dont Be Roode
Its a new era for TNA as we have Fourtune now as faces, leading the TNA charge against Immortal. With AJ as arguably top face again, things are looking a bit more familiar around the Impact Zone this week. Were a mere four days away from Against All Odds and there arent many matches announced on TV yet. Id expect to find out what else is coming tonight though. Lets get to it.
We open with a clip of Jarrett on a radio show talking about the Kurt Angle situation. There are also some clips of Angle watching Jarrett at a house show. We then shift over to Fourtune being revealed as THEY. Roode has something to say tonight.
Immortal comes out to open the show. No Flair again as I guess hes either being held off TV or is out due to his shoulder injury. Immortal looks a bit dressed down this week other than Jeff Jarrett and Karen. Eric says that Immortal wont miss a beat after last week. Hes not going to give up power because for 15 years hes made stars, built companies and changed the industry. Bischoff just said he made stars. Ok I regained my composure. Almost died of laughter there.
Bischoff runs down Fourtune and says how worthless they are. He hands the mic over to Jeff Jarrett who calls out Fourtune. The fans chant for AJ. Jarrett (when I say Jarrett I mean Jeff. Ill refer to Karen as Karen for clarification) says he gave all 4 of these guys a job 9 years ago. Jarrett gets in their faces again but Roode grabs the mic from him.
Roode says that Fourtune is the backbone of the company and that they all had chances to go away for more money or better opportunities, but they were the ones that have stood by TNA. Theyll continue to rise to the top no matter what Immortal wants to do. He says for Jarrett to do something about it if he doesnt like it and the brawl is on. Good promo from Roode who Ive never seen the superstar in him that is supposed to be there. Angle, Crimson and Steiner run out to even the odds as Immortal runs.
Angle and Jarrett sign their contract tonight.
The world title is on the line as Anderson defends against Morgan. The winner gets Jeff Hardy in a ladder match for the title on Sunday. Well at least they announced the PPV main event.
Velvet and Winter are arguing in the back until Angelina breaks them up and has an official introduction. They argue more and Angelina is frustrated as we take a break.
Back with Eric offering the returning Hernandez a spot in Immortal which he accepts.
Matt Hardy/Bully Ray/DAngelo Dinero vs. D-Von/Samoa Joe/Rob Van Dam
This is a tables match. These guys all have singles matches at the PPV which I think you can figure out. Joe chases Pope out of the arena to start. I think this is one table to a finish. Van Dam vs. Matt in the ring as he hits Rolling Thunder. D-Von beats up Bubba on the floor. The Dudleys are in the ring now with Bubba hitting D-Von low. Bubba gets a table set up but yells at D-Vons kids. They jump the rail and detain him, allowing D-Von to knock Bubba through the table for the win at 3:15.
The Angles have a surprise for Kurt.
Back with the Jarretts in the ring, flanked by security. Karen says they have a hectic schedule but their perfect family works well enough to pull it off. Here comes Kurt for the contract signing. Karen says they need to get along for the sake of their kids while patronizing him terribly. Kurt says lets get this over with. Jarrett says that there was no need for the violence at Genesis.
Jarrett says hes going to raise the stakes. If Kurt wins, he gets sole custody of Kurts two kids. Three weeks from tonight however, the Jarretts are renewing their wedding vows. If Jarrett wins, Kurt has to give Karen away on March 3rd (three weeks from tonight). Yes, theyre actually having a match for the custody of kids. And yes I know WWE did it. It was stupid then and its stupid now. The contract is signed with no issues for perhaps the first time ever in professional wrestling.
Sarita/Rosita/Tara/Madison Rayne vs. Velvet Sky/Winter/Angelina Love/Mickie James
Winter tries to slide between Angelinas legs like Velvet and almost knocks her over. Then she blocks Velvets entrance. Ah there it is. Angelina vs. Sarita to start us off. Rolling cradle into a sunset flip gets two for Love immediately. The world title match is next apparently. Top rope cross body gets two on Sarita but Rosita trips Angelina up before coming in.
Sarita back in as she and Rosita have decent chemistry. Rosita is pretty tiny. Theyve been the only members of their team in so far as its back to Rosita. Angelina gets a front slam (Worlds Strongest Slam) to break the momentum and its off to Velvet. Winter gets mad at her for coming in and Rosita drills her. More cousin double teaming results in Rosita hitting a moonsault for the pin on Velvet at 3:00.
Mickie wants to fight Madison right now as we go to a break.
Back with Mickie saying she wants to fight now. Madison says that Mickie came here to prove that shes the best in the world. Madison says that Mickie talks a good game but cant walk the walk. She says shell see Mickie at Against All Odds. This was kind of abrupt.
Jeff Hardy says it doesnt matter who he faces at the ladder match as its his element.
World title match is next.
Angle goes into Fourtunes locker room and tells Roode and AJ to hurt Jeff Jarrett tonight. Angle says he wishes it were him tonight and Roode volunteers to put himself in there. The pop for that makes it hard to hear the promo. Listen to that TNA.
TNA World Title: Matt Morgan vs. Mr. Anderson
After Andersons usual introduction, heres Hardy with a personalized ladder. Hardy sits on top of it as we get started. They feel each other out a lot to start with Morgan overpowering Anderson. Side slam gets two. Anderson grabs a rollup for one and Morgan gets a clothesline for two. Anderson speeds things up and takes over. That was some nice stuff from him there.
Mic Check is avoided as is the Carbon Footprint. Anderson gets a middle rope clothesline for two. Morgan is on the apron and snaps Andersons neck across the top and the champion goes flying into the referee. Hernandez runs in through the crowd and beats down Morgan, allowing Anderson to get the easy pin at 5:40. Anderson didnt see Hernandezs beatdown.
Post match Hernandez and Hardy beat down Anderson. Hardy poses with the belt as we take a break.
Ray says that D-Vons sons are bastards and theyre in over their heads. He issues a challenge to D-Von to bring his sons to Against All Odds for a 3-1 street fight. Oh dear. His kids are teenagers if youre curious.
Brian Kendrick vs. Robbie E vs. Suicide
The winner is in the triple threat at Against All Odds against Generation Me of which the winner will get the shot at Kaz. Robbie E isnt happy as he got robbed of his title. Tonight is the road to regaining his bling. Robbie jumps Suicide to start as Kendrick is rocking back and forth on the mat meditating or something. Suicide takes over on Robbie but is sent over the top to the floor.
Kendrick pops up and goes off on Robbie while still in his cloak for lack of a better term. In comes Suicide again and Kendrick accidently nails him. Suicide gets up and takes down both guys, knocking them into the corners. Suicide takes down Kendrick with the Suicide Solution (kind of a weird belly to back suplex/Angle Slam combination) but Cookie distracts, allowing Robbie to knock him to the floor and steals the pin to advance to Against All Odds at 2:55. No rating as it was too short, but this was the weakest of these matches.
Eliminate the Hate ad.
Ink Inc says that theyre unique and that they give it their all in the ring. Just a quick 30 second promo but this was perhaps the first or second time weve heard these guys talk about themselves. This is the kind of thing TNA needs to do more of with some of their lesser established characters.
Gunner/Murphy/Rob Terry vs. Steiner/Beer Money at the PPV. We also run down the rest of the card.
D-Von says his boys will be in the match. From a kayfabe perspective, I dont get why D-Von would do this to someone that has no issue hurting them. Isnt he just putting them in danger? Not criticizing it, just not really getting it.
Jeff Jarrett/Jeff Hardy vs. AJ Styles/Kurt Angle
Angle has a big smile on his face on the way to the ring. We take a break before the bell. Jarrett vs. AJ to start but Kurt is tagged in almost immediately. Let the stalling begin. You can always tell a guy that cut his teeth in Memphis. They can stall like few others. Angle and Hardy start us off proper here. Angle gets the belly to belly for two. Taz says hes wrestled both of these men before. He needs to say things like that more often as unless you started watching before about 2002, theres a chance you might not know he was a wrestler.
Off to AJ vs. Hardy for a bit before Jarrett comes in to beat down AJ. Jarrett keeps running from Angle and its Hardy vs. Kurt again. Hardy hooks a chinlock on Angle for a bit and takes him down with a back elbow. In true heel fashion we get Angle vs. Jarrett when Angle is beaten down. Karen yells at Kurt a lot but Jeff misses an enziguri and its ankle lock time. Hardy saves and is in now legally I guess.
Hardy puts on a chinlock/choke to Angle as we take a break. Back with more Hardy beating on Angle. It seems that theyre protecting AJ which makes sense as he might not be back to full speed yet. Angle gets the running belly to belly off the top and both guys are down. Hot tag to AJ who cleans house. Angle wants the Slam on Jarrett but Jarrett escapes. Kurt goes after Karen and the distraction allows AJ to hit the springboard forearm (love that move) for the pin at 14:26.
The Jeffs beat down Angle and AJ until Fourtune makes the save. Immortal comes down for the second save and controls for a bit. RVD comes out for save #3 but Matt gets a shot to the knee. Here comes Anderson for the final save to take down Immortal to end the show.
Results

Sarita/Rosita/Tara/Madison Rayne b. Velvet Sky/Winter/Angelina Love/Mickie James Moonsault to Sky
Mr. Anderson b. Matt Morgan Pin after Hernandez attacked Morgan
Robbie E. b. Suicide and Brian Kendrick Pin after a Suicide Solution to Kendrick
AJ Styles/Kurt Angle b. Jeff Hardy/Jeff Jarrett Springboard forearm to Jarrett
Monday Night Raw
Date: February 7, 2011

Commentators: Michael Cole, Jerry Lawler
We continue on the Road to Wrestlemania in what Id assume will be a plot advancing show which is ok. The Chamber is in less than two weeks so there isnt much to say as far as adding new stuff goes. Bear in mind that Ive seen part of this show last night but am reviewing it on Tuesday/Wednesday, so if there are some odd things said its because I know whats coming. Sorry about that. Lets get to it.
Nickelback opens us up.
Heres Vince, and according to Cole its the first time weve seen him in almost a year. Where do I begin?
1. He wrestled at Wrestlemania on March 28, 2010. Well call that 11 months when its really more like 10 and a half.
2. He was there for Nexus. Nexus began on June 1 and attacked Vince on June 22. Well go very conservative again and call that June 7. That means we have eight months.
3. He was on the November 1 episode of Raw, which may be a stretch as he was in a coma/dream sequence. Still though, he was there. That would be three months
In other words, at minimum it was three months and at most it was eight months. That means its closer to half a year than a year, but who cares about things like time right?
Vince starts talking about Wrestlemania and how after the Super Bowl is over, its time for Wrestlemania. Apparently next week were going to meet the host of Wrestlemania who has set a record or a streak of some sort. Im kind of intrigued but it better not be Justin Bieber.
Anyway as Vince is about to leave, heres Randy Orton. We get a clip of him punting Harris last week and running from Nexus and their beatdown. Orton wants to talk about Punk and how after last week theyre not even. Before Orton gets going though heres Punk. Punk sits down on the stage and says that of course it isnt over. He asks if Orton wants to know why he cost Randall the title at the Rumble.
Punk shows a clip from Unforgiven 2008 with Punk as World Heavyweight Champion and Orton getting in his face and calling Punk a fluke. Legacy jumped him and Orton punted him in the head, which made Punk have to forfeit the title due to an injury. Yes, THIS IS CONTINUITY! They did something back then and now were going to get revenge as a result of it. That is huge as something is happening and theres a reason for it. That doesnt happen anymore, which is a huge thing.
Punk says that hes been patient but now wants his revenge. As long as theyre on the same show, Orton will never be world champion again. He isnt waiting for Elimination Chamber but is going to eliminate Orton right now. Instead of running like someone intelligent, Orton stands in the ring and gets beaten down.
After a little bit Punk starts talking and Orton breaks free for a bit but is eventually tied in the ropes. Cena chant starts up but Orton is all alone. Punk yells at him a lot but Orton gets a headbutt and kick in. The kick hits Punk in the face and breaks his nose legit. Theres blood coming out of it and its swollen badly. If its not broken its bruised badly. The Nexus puts Orton on Punks shoulders for the GTS to end the segment.
Mason Ryan vs. R-Truth
This was set up by an E-Mail during the break. Apparently all members of Nexus will face people in the Chamber, finishing with Punk vs. Cena in the main event. This is Ryans in ring debut in WWE. Truths song is freaking catchy to say the least. And now we get the important part of the night. GREEN BAY WISCONSIN! WHATS UP??? Cole: Truth were in Milwaukee! This would become the running joke for the night.
The fans totally turn on Truth, booing the hell out of him and chanting MILWAUKEE. Truth is clearly shaken here, messing up his sunset flip out of the corner as well as the spinning forearm. Its understandable as he hasnt been a heel in years. Truth may have hurt his knee on the missed forearm. Ryan slams him into the ropes three times and then locks on a Brock Lock (Ryan bends Truths leg around Ryans head) for the submission at 2:23.
Post match Ryan gets a chair but the referee grabs it away. With another Milwaukee chant going, the hold goes on again and the decision is reversed. This would be stupid based on the fact that Vickie said a referees decision cant be reversed but whatever.
The Did You Know says more people attended live events last year than the Super Bowl, Stanley Cup Finals, NBA Finals and X Games combined. You mean having like 400 shows a year was enough to pass all those others? REALLY???
Back from a break Punk congratulates Ryan on hurting Truth. Later tonight its McGillicutty vs. Morrison and Otunga vs. Sheamus.
Eve Torres/Tamina/Gail Kim vs. Bella Twins/Melina
The Bellas and Eve look great here. Even Gail looks kind of good. Natalya is on commentary for this and has a shot at Eve next week. Gail tries to fight both Bellas which fails pretty badly. Off to Melina now as this isnt anything special at all. Heres Eve as Natalya and Cole get into an argument. Standing moonsault gets two on Melina. Everything breaks down and a spinning neckbreaker (Moss Covered Three Handled Family Credenza for you technical people out there) ends Melina at 2:22. This was pretty worthless.
2-21-11 promo, this time with the Johnny Cash song Aint No Grave Can Hold My Body Down.
We talk about Aaron Rodgers having the title belt on his shoulder during the celebration. Allegedly Ric Flair gave him that but Im not sure how much I buy that at all.
Video about the Chamber match.
John Morrison vs. Michael McGillicutty
McGillicutty takes him down early to start us off. To say the crowd is dead for the early parts here is an understatement to say the least. McGillicutty goes after the arm and tries to slam Morrisons hand into the post by crushing it with the steps. The dropkick to the steps misses though and here comes John. Flash Kick sets up the Starship Pain to end it at 2:30. Great looking moonsault there.
As Morrison is leaving, Punk is waiting on him with some kind of spray that goes into Morrisons eyes. Punk also kicks him in the head. Medics check him as we go to a break.
After a break heres Miz in wrestling gear. He says that last week he was pulling for Lawler and asks him to get in the ring. Miz says it wasnt because he thought Lawler would be the easiest targets because theyre all easy wins for the Miz. Lawler used to be a loudmouth and everyone would listen to Jerry. Miz says he patterned his career after Lawler and is a modern day Jerry Lawler. Id say Roddy Piper but thats just me.
Now its him on talk shows and now its him that people want to watch. Hes also WWE Champion which Lawler has ever been. Jerry says theyre not mirror images because hes an original. Miz shows us a clip from last week where Jerry punched DiBiase which looked great. Miz says that was a sucker punch so Lawler says Miz is a sucker and sucks too. Wow that was bad.
Lawler says hes never competed at Wrestlemania or been WWE Champion. He says no one knows what it means to do either of those things. Lawler is going to win the title and go to Wrestlemania. Miz goes for his catchphrase but Lawler cuts him off by saying awful and theres your chant. The fight is on and Lawler puts Riley down. Cue DiBiase for the save and Bryan for the second save. The GM makes the obvious match.
Daniel Bryan/Jerry Lawler vs. Ted DiBiase/The Miz
Riley is on commentary with Cole here. Bryan vs. DiBiase to start. Who would have believed say two years ago that on Raw we would be seeing the number one contender Jerry Lawler teaming with Bryan Danielson facing Ted DiBiase and the WWE Champion the Miz? Think about that for a minute. Miz sends King to the floor as we take a break.
Back with Miz holding a chinlock on Lawler but theres a quick tag to Bryan. If I hadnt been looking at the monitor I wouldnt have known it as the reaction more or less didnt exist. Running clothesline in the corner to Bryan gets two for Miz. Off to Lawler (small pop) and DiBiase who is in trouble early. DDT gets two for Lawler. Everything breaks down as Miz is taken out by Bryan. The middle rope punch ends DiBiase at 9:05. Lawler wins again.
Sheamus vs. David Otunga
Holy squash Batman! As Sheamus is on the way to the ring Josh interrupts him and asks his opinion on Mark Henrys comments. Sheamus hasnt heard them but apparently Henry says that Sheamus should be out of the Chamber and Henry should be in. Sheamus says Henry hasnt done anything in 14 years and should only be in if its a cake eating contest.
Otunga comes out but heres Henry instead. The brawl is on with Otunga only trying to get in once and getting drilled. A pair of Worlds Strongest Slams ends Sheamus as I guess theres no match. Otunga stands over the fallen Sheamus but heres ..Alberto? Well he had to be here at some point I suppose.
Alberto Del Rio vs. Santino Marella
This should be short but likely wont be. After a break and before Santinos entrance, Alberto says it was his destiny and all that jazz. Santino throws Alberto over the top in a funny bit. Was there ever a bell? If there was I didnt hear it. Santino chant is the loudest of the night so far which Im not sure how to take. Theres the bell. Kozlov isnt here due to the beating he got from Corre the other night.
Santino sends him over the top again and talks some trash. Back in and Alberto of course takes over as hes supposed to. He sends Santino into the post and the arm work is on. Running enziguri in the corner misses but the Cobra misses. Del Rio gets a Codebreaker to the arm and seconds later the Armbreaker ends it at about 2:59. Just an extended squash with some minor comedy thrown in so no rating.
We recap the Nexus taking out the Chamber competitors so far tonight.
Here are Vickie and Dolph for no apparent reason other than were talking about Smackdown. She says exactly what you would expect her to say until Cenas music cuts her off. He references Christina Aguliera butchering the national anthem at the Super Bowl. He also apologizes for R-Truth, saying that Truth celebrated a bit too much because were in Milwaukee.
Cole morphs into the anti-Cena fan, saying its the same stuff every time. Cena starts talking about the last time they were in a ring and Cena kissed Vickie. Vickie and Dolph threaten to leave if the fans boo and Cena says you heard them, prompting huge heat. He starts up a GO PACK GO chant, which is a local favorite and is enough to get them to go.
Cena talks about what Nexus has been up to tonight and gets another jab at Truth. They beat Truth up so badly that he forgot what city hes in. The flaw in Nexus plan though is that Cena is still here. He starts using the phrase Elimination Chamber instead of ass. Theres something awesome about people saying what theyre planning and seeing the Mania sign over their shoulders. Thats always cool to see.
Another 2-21-11 ad, the same as before.
John Cena vs. CM Punk
Cena keeps looking at the entrance during Punks entrance. Nice little touch there. Punk hammers him into the corner to start as he controls early. All Punk so far. A charge in the corner misses though as this crowd is pathetic. Cena cant get momentum going though as he has to keep looking for Nexus. Out to the floor with Punk landing a clothesline from the apron to keep control.
Back in the ring and its the knee and clothesline out of the corner to put Cena down. The crowd is DEAD. Punk says Cena cant see him. GTS is countered. You can see some stuffing in Punks nose. Cena pounds him down in the corner and the referee says hell disqualify Cena if he keeps that up. Cena shrugs and drills Punk low for the DQ at about 5:00.
Post match Nexus of course comes out with Ryan guarding Punk. McGillicutty and Otunga corner Cena but Lawler hands Cena a chair and house is cleaned. Cena stands tall to end the show.

TNA might start making movies. Are you kidding me people?
Raw got a 3.3 which is down from last week.
NXT
Date: February 8, 2011
Location: Resch Center, Green Bay, Wisconsin
Commentators: Josh Matthews, Todd Grisham
Its elimination night I believe which is probably a good thing. I wish it was Curtis that was gone but hes the chosen one so itll probably be Bateman or Saxton. Anyway, this should be decent enough as the show has gotten a lot better recently. I like them being in the Super Bowl town because it gives us a nice mini-theme tonight possibly. Lets get to it.
We open with a recap of the season so far which has been a lot better after the first two went out.
Striker is on the stage and were doing the joust thing called Rock-Em Sock-Em this week. First match is Bateman vs. Curtis. Bateman is in the final. Winner gets two immunity points by the way. Brodus pulls a Michael Tarver and goes after Saxton so its a DQ. Bateman vs. Saxton is the final. Theres a controversial finish but Saxton wins. To be fair its very close. Naturally we have to do it one more time. Surprisingly enough the rematch announcement gets a pop. Saxton wins again to get two points. That gives Curtis 3, Bateman and Saxton 2 and Clay 0.
We recap the Talk the Talk Challenge from last week including the Turd Ferguson chant.
Derrick Bateman vs. Byron Saxton
No intro here as we end the package and its off to the match. Bateman works on the arm and gets a nice kick to the back to take over. Apparently Ricardo is the official new pro for Del Rio. Please tell me that it would be Alberto getting the shot and not Ricardo. Saxton takes over as we talk about the Dazed and Confused shirt that Ziggler is wearing.
Bateman fights back and gets a dropkick in the corner and a clothesline for two. Josh says whoever loses here is gone. Saxton gets a small package for two. Bateman grabs a modified LeBell Lock (closer to a Crossface) to get the win at 4:30.
Time for another challenge worth 3 points (Curtis 3, Bateman and Saxton 2 and Clay 0). This time were going to more or less play the Price is Right. Various people are going to model things and the rookies have to guess the retail price. My goodness theyve turned their show into a commercial! First up is the 50 Greatest Superstars of All Time DVD presented by AJ from last season. The DVD is 34.95??? SWEET DAMN thats insane! Brodus is closest.
Naomi is up next and presents WWE Kids Magazine. By presents I mean holds up and smiles if youre wondering. Clay is closest with $1. Oh ok you cant go over. That makes sense. AJ is back again with a foam World Heavyweight Championship. Saxton gets it right on the nose at $19.99.
Bateman says he said the same thing which he didnt. This is rather stupid if you didnt get it but its surprisingly entertaining. Naomi has the History of the WWE Book. Clay wins with 23 dollars. Saxton went just over with 23.95. Ziggler (I think): Thats the first time Saxton has ever been over!
Clay and Curtis are tied for immunity. My what luck that they have a match later.
Video about the Road to Wrestlemania going through the Elimination Chamber.
Truth is with Curtis in the back and they talk about the accusations of Truth saying Curtis has a big head behind his back. Truths leg seems to be fine after the attack last night.
Brodus Clay vs. Johnny Curtis
This is the main event. Apparently Josh thinks he gets to decide who gets immunity. The superstars make fun of Truth not knowing the right town last night. Curtis hammers away to start to control. Clay takes over with a firemans carry into a hot shot. Nice overhead suplex gets two for Clay. The match drags badly so the Turd chant gets going again. Ziggler eggs it on and continues to be one of the funniest parts of this show.
Dolph leaves and Brodus hammers away. Curtis gets a slingshot legdrop to the back of Clays neck for two. Dolph is back and Grisham hits on Maryse who is at the top of the stage now. Top rope dropkick gets no cover as Clay is in the ropes. Brodus gets a shot to the throat using the ropes and a powerslam ends it at 6:22. The announcers called it a bulldog slam because theyre not very intelligent.
2-21-11 promo again with the grave line from last night.
Clay and Curtis get 20 seconds to say why they should get immunity. Curtis says its because the Packers Rule. Curtis says the Steelers should have won. Why? They scored less points. Naturally Curtis wins the live crowd approval and gets immunity. Damn it I hate this show. He just got beat clean so lets give him the advantage. Saxton is out and cant talk due to tears. Ah ok there it is.
Saxton says that its ok and everyone makes mistakes. Hell forgive them though and will be back. Ziggler goes off on him in a great rant to make Saxton mad. Masters tells Saxton to punch him. Instead he points at Ziggler to end the show.
Results
Byron Saxton won the Rock-Em Sock-Em Challenge
Derrick Bateman b. Byron Saxton LeBell Lock
Brodus Clay won the WWEshop.com Challenge
Brodus Clay b. Johnny Curtis Powerslam
Byron Saxton was eliminated in 4th place

Episode Title: Dont Be Roode
Its a new era for TNA as we have Fourtune now as faces, leading the TNA charge against Immortal. With AJ as arguably top face again, things are looking a bit more familiar around the Impact Zone this week. Were a mere four days away from Against All Odds and there arent many matches announced on TV yet. Id expect to find out what else is coming tonight though. Lets get to it.
We open with a clip of Jarrett on a radio show talking about the Kurt Angle situation. There are also some clips of Angle watching Jarrett at a house show. We then shift over to Fourtune being revealed as THEY. Roode has something to say tonight.
Immortal comes out to open the show. No Flair again as I guess hes either being held off TV or is out due to his shoulder injury. Immortal looks a bit dressed down this week other than Jeff Jarrett and Karen. Eric says that Immortal wont miss a beat after last week. Hes not going to give up power because for 15 years hes made stars, built companies and changed the industry. Bischoff just said he made stars. Ok I regained my composure. Almost died of laughter there.
Bischoff runs down Fourtune and says how worthless they are. He hands the mic over to Jeff Jarrett who calls out Fourtune. The fans chant for AJ. Jarrett (when I say Jarrett I mean Jeff. Ill refer to Karen as Karen for clarification) says he gave all 4 of these guys a job 9 years ago. Jarrett gets in their faces again but Roode grabs the mic from him.
Roode says that Fourtune is the backbone of the company and that they all had chances to go away for more money or better opportunities, but they were the ones that have stood by TNA. Theyll continue to rise to the top no matter what Immortal wants to do. He says for Jarrett to do something about it if he doesnt like it and the brawl is on. Good promo from Roode who Ive never seen the superstar in him that is supposed to be there. Angle, Crimson and Steiner run out to even the odds as Immortal runs.
Angle and Jarrett sign their contract tonight.
The world title is on the line as Anderson defends against Morgan. The winner gets Jeff Hardy in a ladder match for the title on Sunday. Well at least they announced the PPV main event.
Velvet and Winter are arguing in the back until Angelina breaks them up and has an official introduction. They argue more and Angelina is frustrated as we take a break.
Back with Eric offering the returning Hernandez a spot in Immortal which he accepts.
Matt Hardy/Bully Ray/DAngelo Dinero vs. D-Von/Samoa Joe/Rob Van Dam
This is a tables match. These guys all have singles matches at the PPV which I think you can figure out. Joe chases Pope out of the arena to start. I think this is one table to a finish. Van Dam vs. Matt in the ring as he hits Rolling Thunder. D-Von beats up Bubba on the floor. The Dudleys are in the ring now with Bubba hitting D-Von low. Bubba gets a table set up but yells at D-Vons kids. They jump the rail and detain him, allowing D-Von to knock Bubba through the table for the win at 3:15.
The Angles have a surprise for Kurt.
Back with the Jarretts in the ring, flanked by security. Karen says they have a hectic schedule but their perfect family works well enough to pull it off. Here comes Kurt for the contract signing. Karen says they need to get along for the sake of their kids while patronizing him terribly. Kurt says lets get this over with. Jarrett says that there was no need for the violence at Genesis.
Jarrett says hes going to raise the stakes. If Kurt wins, he gets sole custody of Kurts two kids. Three weeks from tonight however, the Jarretts are renewing their wedding vows. If Jarrett wins, Kurt has to give Karen away on March 3rd (three weeks from tonight). Yes, theyre actually having a match for the custody of kids. And yes I know WWE did it. It was stupid then and its stupid now. The contract is signed with no issues for perhaps the first time ever in professional wrestling.
Sarita/Rosita/Tara/Madison Rayne vs. Velvet Sky/Winter/Angelina Love/Mickie James
Winter tries to slide between Angelinas legs like Velvet and almost knocks her over. Then she blocks Velvets entrance. Ah there it is. Angelina vs. Sarita to start us off. Rolling cradle into a sunset flip gets two for Love immediately. The world title match is next apparently. Top rope cross body gets two on Sarita but Rosita trips Angelina up before coming in.
Sarita back in as she and Rosita have decent chemistry. Rosita is pretty tiny. Theyve been the only members of their team in so far as its back to Rosita. Angelina gets a front slam (Worlds Strongest Slam) to break the momentum and its off to Velvet. Winter gets mad at her for coming in and Rosita drills her. More cousin double teaming results in Rosita hitting a moonsault for the pin on Velvet at 3:00.
Mickie wants to fight Madison right now as we go to a break.
Back with Mickie saying she wants to fight now. Madison says that Mickie came here to prove that shes the best in the world. Madison says that Mickie talks a good game but cant walk the walk. She says shell see Mickie at Against All Odds. This was kind of abrupt.
Jeff Hardy says it doesnt matter who he faces at the ladder match as its his element.
World title match is next.
Angle goes into Fourtunes locker room and tells Roode and AJ to hurt Jeff Jarrett tonight. Angle says he wishes it were him tonight and Roode volunteers to put himself in there. The pop for that makes it hard to hear the promo. Listen to that TNA.
TNA World Title: Matt Morgan vs. Mr. Anderson
After Andersons usual introduction, heres Hardy with a personalized ladder. Hardy sits on top of it as we get started. They feel each other out a lot to start with Morgan overpowering Anderson. Side slam gets two. Anderson grabs a rollup for one and Morgan gets a clothesline for two. Anderson speeds things up and takes over. That was some nice stuff from him there.
Mic Check is avoided as is the Carbon Footprint. Anderson gets a middle rope clothesline for two. Morgan is on the apron and snaps Andersons neck across the top and the champion goes flying into the referee. Hernandez runs in through the crowd and beats down Morgan, allowing Anderson to get the easy pin at 5:40. Anderson didnt see Hernandezs beatdown.
Post match Hernandez and Hardy beat down Anderson. Hardy poses with the belt as we take a break.
Ray says that D-Vons sons are bastards and theyre in over their heads. He issues a challenge to D-Von to bring his sons to Against All Odds for a 3-1 street fight. Oh dear. His kids are teenagers if youre curious.
Brian Kendrick vs. Robbie E vs. Suicide
The winner is in the triple threat at Against All Odds against Generation Me of which the winner will get the shot at Kaz. Robbie E isnt happy as he got robbed of his title. Tonight is the road to regaining his bling. Robbie jumps Suicide to start as Kendrick is rocking back and forth on the mat meditating or something. Suicide takes over on Robbie but is sent over the top to the floor.
Kendrick pops up and goes off on Robbie while still in his cloak for lack of a better term. In comes Suicide again and Kendrick accidently nails him. Suicide gets up and takes down both guys, knocking them into the corners. Suicide takes down Kendrick with the Suicide Solution (kind of a weird belly to back suplex/Angle Slam combination) but Cookie distracts, allowing Robbie to knock him to the floor and steals the pin to advance to Against All Odds at 2:55. No rating as it was too short, but this was the weakest of these matches.
Eliminate the Hate ad.
Ink Inc says that theyre unique and that they give it their all in the ring. Just a quick 30 second promo but this was perhaps the first or second time weve heard these guys talk about themselves. This is the kind of thing TNA needs to do more of with some of their lesser established characters.
Gunner/Murphy/Rob Terry vs. Steiner/Beer Money at the PPV. We also run down the rest of the card.
D-Von says his boys will be in the match. From a kayfabe perspective, I dont get why D-Von would do this to someone that has no issue hurting them. Isnt he just putting them in danger? Not criticizing it, just not really getting it.
Jeff Jarrett/Jeff Hardy vs. AJ Styles/Kurt Angle
Angle has a big smile on his face on the way to the ring. We take a break before the bell. Jarrett vs. AJ to start but Kurt is tagged in almost immediately. Let the stalling begin. You can always tell a guy that cut his teeth in Memphis. They can stall like few others. Angle and Hardy start us off proper here. Angle gets the belly to belly for two. Taz says hes wrestled both of these men before. He needs to say things like that more often as unless you started watching before about 2002, theres a chance you might not know he was a wrestler.
Off to AJ vs. Hardy for a bit before Jarrett comes in to beat down AJ. Jarrett keeps running from Angle and its Hardy vs. Kurt again. Hardy hooks a chinlock on Angle for a bit and takes him down with a back elbow. In true heel fashion we get Angle vs. Jarrett when Angle is beaten down. Karen yells at Kurt a lot but Jeff misses an enziguri and its ankle lock time. Hardy saves and is in now legally I guess.
Hardy puts on a chinlock/choke to Angle as we take a break. Back with more Hardy beating on Angle. It seems that theyre protecting AJ which makes sense as he might not be back to full speed yet. Angle gets the running belly to belly off the top and both guys are down. Hot tag to AJ who cleans house. Angle wants the Slam on Jarrett but Jarrett escapes. Kurt goes after Karen and the distraction allows AJ to hit the springboard forearm (love that move) for the pin at 14:26.
The Jeffs beat down Angle and AJ until Fourtune makes the save. Immortal comes down for the second save and controls for a bit. RVD comes out for save #3 but Matt gets a shot to the knee. Here comes Anderson for the final save to take down Immortal to end the show.
