WWE: An Icon Presentation

GLOBAL ICON · Dec 20, 2011

Before I post RAW, let me make it clear that the promos in the show are way below par (that's what I feel), at least the contract signing. So don't be surprised if it is anything less than what I have given you. I am sorry for it but it was done the way it has come out because of lack of thought amidst a tense personal life i.e school life. Sorry again.

Winner and still Intercontinental champion: Alberto Del Rio

The announcers put over the amazing match and performance of the young stars as we go to a commercial.

**All Grown Up**

Back from the break and Stephanie McMahon comes out and the boos finally die down. She walks down the ramp and into the ring, where a table and two chairs are kept in a serious, its business time mood and look. She gets a mic.

Stephanie: Before we begin what we are here for, I want to address the Intercontinental title situation. As you just saw, Intercontinental champion Alberto Del Rio retained his championship with some help from Drew McIntyre.

*The crowd boos*

Stephanie: And I know all of you want to see Kofi Kingston get a fair chance at the championship but this was nothing less than it and I will not give Kofi a rematch for two reasons. One, he chose this Falls Count Anywhere match where anything goes. Second, he will be out of action for 4 good weeks.

*More boos*

Stephanie: So, as for who will be Alberto Del Rios next challenger, that will be decided in a battle royal set to take place the night after Judgment Day. It will include 8 of RAWs dynamic superstars. Namely, Alex Riley, Mason Ryan, Skip Sheffield, R-Truth, Evan Bourne, Jack Swagger, Joe Hennig and Drew McIntyre!

*The crowd boos the last name heavily*

Stephanie: And now, to proceed with the WWE championship match contract signing. Without further ado, ladies and gentlemen, the No.1 contender to the WWE championship, The Miz.

**AWESOME!!**

The Mizs music hits and he comes out to more boos than cheers in a black suit and white shirt. He poses on the ramp which brings out more boos from the crowd. He struts down the ramp his eyes fixed on the contract lying on a table inside the ring. He gets in the ring and gives Stephanie a nod before posing one more time. He comfortably sits on one of the chairs.

**Aint No Make Believe**

John Morrisons music hits and he comes out to a loud pop in a black shirt and jeans with the signature glares on and the WWE championship around his shoulders. He poses on the ramp which brings out a Lets Go JoMo! chant. He walks down the ramp and into the ring. He climbs the turnbuckles and poses with the championship before taking his glares off and throwing them in the audience. He seats himself opposite Miz.

Stephanie: Now, we all know that contract signings end up in tables breaking, so this time I would change things a bit. Gentlemen, lets ensure this goes down well.

*Miz picks up the microphone on the table*

Miz: Before I sign this contract, I want to get a thing cleared. You see, John Morrison has been running around for way too long with his uncharismatic and boring WWE championship reign. And this has to end at Judgment Day. And I am going to end it at Judgment Day.

*Boos*

Miz: Like it or not people, I will beat John Morrison for the WWE championship and I will do it by hook or by crook. The WWE championship, it is my dream, my passion, my obsession. And I can do anything to get. And by that I mean I can punish Morrison so bad, I can give him such a badass beating, that forget being the most must-see WWE champion in history, Morrisons dream would be to stand up on his damn legs!

*More boos as Morrison looks on patiently*

Miz: Morrisons injuries, they wont be my fault. No, they wont. You see John Morrison is so boring, so un-WWE championship material, that it pains me and I am sure it pains you all to see him come out in his fancy attire with the title and be an embarrassment to the company and to the people he represents.

*The crowd cant stop booing*

Miz: Because the WWE, the biggest professional wrestling company out there, the reason many countries became aware of another sport in the world, the company that took a small, neglected sport and made it into mainstream entertainment, such a company, needs somebody charismatic, somebody must-see and somebody AWESOME! And that person is without a doubt, me, the most-must see WWE superstar in history, The Miz!

*The crowd starts a Really?! chant*

Miz: Yeah, really. So, I want this worst excuse of a human being, to sign a contract my lawyers made, which says that he doesnt blame me for his injuries and that he brought it upon himself. So, Morrison, before signing Stephanies contract, sign mine.

*Miz takes out a contract from his pocket and gives it to Morrison*

Morrison: Really, Miz? You can go down to this level. And you say youre charismatic. Charismatic my foot.

*The crowd cheers for the first time in a long while*

Morrison: And again, your most must-see crap makes an appearance on RAW. I guess it should be added to the other on-air talent list on WWE.com. Most must-see crap, The Mizs stupid and awful catchphrase.

*Cheers*

Morrison: Hmm. But then again, I dont fear a punk like you Miz. You are a stupid, ass-kissing coward. And a man like me, doesnt fear a jackass like you. So, I am going to sign your contract. But that doesnt mean Ill let you come at Judgment Day and finish me off. Because at Judgment Day, I will beat you again. I will retain the championship, and when I do that, fluke will become dominance!

*Cheers erupt as Morrison signs both the contract and hands them to Miz who signs Stephanies*

*Morrison gets up to leave but Miz stops him*

Miz: Just a moment Morrison. Ive got something more to get off my chest. You see, ever since weve broken off, you have been the Marty Janetty of the Dirt Sheet Duo. You went from being the more advertised to the more unsuccessful. While I became from an ignored jobber to the face of the company. And that is dominance. What you did at Backlash, was just a fluke. What I will do at Judgment Day, will pin you 1-2-3 and go on to become the most-must see WWE champion in history!

*Morrison picks up his mic*

Morrison: Miz, youre talking too much. Its time to act. And I cant wait for Judgment Day. You want a piece of me, how about do it now!

*The crowd goes wild*

Miz: Well Morrison, if you dont want to make it till Judgment Day

*Miz drops the mic and charges at Morrison but Morrison ducks and throws him out of the ring*

Stephanie: Stop, stop. I know you two want a piece of each other, but I cant allow you to do it now. Because I have scheduled a match for the two of you. It will be The Miz and CM Punk versus John Morrison and John Cena!

*The crowd goes wild with cheers as Stephanie leaves the ring and we go to a commercial*

Back from the break and The Usos are already in the ring. They warm up for their high-stakes No.1 contenders match as the crowd boos them loudly.

GLOBAL ICON · Dec 20, 2011

**Cult Of Personality**

CM Punks music hits after the break and he comes out to mixed reactions. He goes down on one knee on the ramp, looks at his wrist and yells its Pipebomb time! in the air. He smirks at the kids in the front row who boo him heavily. He gets in the ring and asks for a mic. He is about to speak but a Punk for President! chant is started by the men. Another dueling CM Sucks! chant goes off. Punk smirks at the chants and begins to speak.

Punk: What happened to Lets Go Cena! Cena Sucks!? Yeah, anything with Cena is so stale and boring.

*Mixed reactions*

Punk: So last week, right here on RAW, a huge match was set for Judgment Day between me, CM Punk and John Cena with the stipulations that if I lose, I will have to let go off my current merchandise and I have to say on national television, that John Cena is better than me and if Cena loses, he says live on T.V that I am better than him.

*Cheers for the match*

Punk: Now last week, I came out here and I talked about how John Cena has been able to get full control of the creative and management ever since he step foot in this WWE ring with the bald guy with Olympic Gold.

*The crowd cheers because they know who Punk is talking about*

Punk: Yeah. And you little kids and the beautiful and hot ladies will have to bear with me for another night because Ive got a treat for the Cena-haters. Yeah, I am going to continue my rant on Cena. You see, because of John Cena, the so-called leader of this generation you people have been taken away from that awesome, curse-full, bloody, T.V 14 rated WWE which is famously termed as the Attitude Era!

*The male audience cheer for the acknowledgement*

Punk: You see that era created superstars who need no introduction. That era created men who could hang out in the ring with the others with fourteen staples in their head and still come out victorious. That era proved that the WWE was far more better than WCW. And all of you people have been robbed of those moments, by John Cena.

*Boos for the CeNation commander-in-chief*

Punk: And I, just like most of you, feel pissed off because I loved those moments. The Austin era, HBK and Bret going at it, the awesome TLC matches, those great tag-teams, an athletic and exciting mid-card division, superstars like Triple H, Eddie Guerrero, Austin, Rock, The Undertaker and many more trying to realize their dreams while battling each-other in the process was just breath-taking.

*More cheers come in for Punk*

Punk: You see, John Cena, has created the puked-up, family-friendly, PG era that I am sure none of us want to see, right? I mean, there are no hot ladies running down that ramp and into this ring swearing at each other and posing for, well, Playboy.

*Punk receives the loudest cheers for this*

Punk: And Mister Cena has also contributed to declining the WWEs talent, to pushing them down whenever they got an opportunity and this has created a division centered around Cena and that is what pisses me off the most. You see there are many more talented individuals who deserve the spotlight, who deserve to be on T.V like myself, Chavo Guerrero, Chris Masters, Mark Henry and many more.

*The kids boos are now audible*

Punk: And you people have not been exposed to the tremendous talent of young superstars who couldve been bigger than Cena, who are more charismatic than Cena, superstars who can actually WRESTLE, and who couldve carried this company better than Cena is right now. Those superstars include my good friend David Bautista, who left because Cena didnt allow him to shine alongside himself and Dave left because of that very reason. And there are many more, like the guy whos name rhymes with jeopardy and literally so.

*Boos for the jeopardy guy*

Punk: Randy Orton, who is now forced to go to a taped show because his momentum was being stopped by Cena every time he gained it. Hell Cena is so self-centered that he even robbed Orton of a Holy dollar-hash-exclamation mark-T ($#!T) move of the year in 2010. And the most obvious person, is ME, yours truly, CM Punk!

*More mixed reactions*

Punk: And kids, please do bear with me for few more minutes because I still have a lot to get off my chest and this promo might be sounding a bit off-track and scattered into bits because I honestly am not reading off a piece of paper. This is what my heart says. This is what I am saying right now. You see, John Cena, he has his Hustle Loyalty and Respect slogan with him everywhere he goes, right kids?

*A firm Yes! from the kiddies*

Punk: Huh. I knew that. You all believe in that little slogan but the man who invented it, doesnt do it himself. He has got no loyalty for this business, for this company and for all you people. Otherwise, he would have actually walked down to development and learnt a few good moves to give you something else than the Five Moves of Doom.

*The males are loving this Cena bashing*

Punk: And hes got no respect for his fellow wrestlers. And another slogan that irritates me a lot, is You Cant See Me!. Are you serious Cena? You and your cheeky wide smile on your face are everywhere. On dashboards, billboards, collector cups, vignettes, movies, t-shirts. Its like we cant avoid seeing you because you are shoved down our throats and into our minds and I bet every time after seeing a show, you appear in these peoples dreams in your rainbow tees.

*A Fruity Pebbles! chant breaks out*

Punk: Yeah, that chant. I love it too. And honestly Cena, if you continue doing crappy movies like The Marine, nobody would want to see you.

**The Time Is Now**

The sides of the booing and cheering change as John Cenas music hits and he comes out with the ladies going wild for him. He stands on the ramp and nods his head to acknowledge the crowd in Canada. He turns to the camera and says their alive! and hits the ring. He asks for a mic and stares into Punks eyes. The crowd starts the Lets Go Cena! Cena Sucks! chants. Cena patiently waits for the chants to die down and begins to speak.

Cena: Well youve got a whole lot of items on the Cena pisses me off because list. And talking about The Marine, I hope you guys are looking forward to the new WWE Studios production, The Reunion.

Punk: Were not. And if it shows you training another teen to wrestle, well then we can only pity that soul.

*Cheers for the Pipebomb*

Cena: No, its, its nothing like Legendary, if thats what youre talking about.

Punk: Legendary? Excuse me. That was flat out ridiculous.

Cena: Well, well, lets move on. Youre talking about slogans, right? Well, um, youve got a slogan of youre on. It reads straightedge. And I guess it means no alcohol, no cigarettes, no drugs. Thats good. You even became a younger, more pathetic version of Santa Claus with the beard and stuff. But I highly doubt that outside the WWE, you actually live with it. I mean, I wont be surprised if I stumble upon you in a bar.

*Cheers for Cena*

Cena: Because youre the one who went out of his way to promote the jeopardy guy and you are the reason why he became a star he is. Remember 2009, Punk?

Punk: I do. But what youre forgetting is that I am the reason that guy no longer works in this company and you should be thankful to that because you must be glad not to be sharing a locker room with a drug addict and a multiple-time convict.

*The cheers continue to come for the controversial promo*

Cena: Well youre coming back strong Punk. But Punk, Ive got a reality check for you. You see, with the things you have achieved in the past, ECW championship, tag-team championship, youre one of the best in-ring workers, a multiple-time Money In The Bank winner, a multiple-time World champion, Pipebomb thrower, youve got my respect. But just because I respect you, doesnt mean I like you.

*Punk stares at Cena blandly*

Cena: You go around with your Pipebombs walking as if youve achieved everything there is to achieve in this business. But thats where I realized that your ego is bigger than youre talent. Because without Paul Heyman, without Shawn Michaels, and to some extent without Chris Benoit playing Jack the ripper, you wouldve been working for a Thursday night taped show, Brother!

*More cheers for Cena*

Cena: And by the looks of it, that place is a living, foul smelling, shitty, hell of a place.

*Out of nowhere, a Who Wants Hogan! chant breaks out*

Cena: So thats the whole point Punk. Being great in the ring is not just it. Being hungry for more, being hungry to win respect, to win over these people, that makes one, at least in this business, the best in the world. And there are many who do it and who have done it. People like Andre the Giant, Hulk Hogan, Roddy Piper, Ricky Steamboat, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Bret Hart, Stone Cold, The Rock, Triple H, Eddie Guerrero, the bald guy with Olympic gold, the list is endless. But unfortunately, that list wont include you Punk until you get some sense in your ass and get ready to whoop your own ass for the sake of this business.

*More cheers*

Cena: And when I say that, I dont mean dropping Pipebombs, I mean getting your ass down this ring every single night and giving it your best every time you step between these ropes. And this whole stipulation for our match, its pointless, because you know deep down inside, that you are not yet Best In The World. But if you pay heed to my advice, I know someday, you sure will be.

*Cena drops the mic and leaves as Punk looks on and we go to a commercial*

Show: Huh, that was good. I have regained that feeling. But I sure aint satisfied tearing apart a piece of crap like JTG. I want something stronger, bigger and better. And by that, I mean I want Wade Barrett.

*The crowd boos at the mention of Barrett*

Show: Now, I know that coward aint here tonight because he is scared of this giant, but dont worry Wade, I will find you. If you dont show up on RAW for the rest of your life, I dont care. Because I am going to walk out of this ring right now, and I am coming to find you buddy.

*Show throws the mic down and exits the ring as the crowd cheers*

???: Wait a minute Show. You neednt go anywhere.

*The crowd boos as Barrett emerges from the crowd and walks past the barricade and into the ring*

Barrett: You neednt go anywhere because I am here. You see my suspension was taken off by the CEO of the WWE, Michael Cooper. And now, I am legally clear to appear on RAW and I am legally cleared to send you speeding to the hospital again.

*Boos*

Barrett: With that being said, why dont you get your fat ass into this ring.

**All Grown Up**

Stephanie McMahons music hits and she comes out interrupting Barretts celebrations with a mic in hand.

Stephanie: Barrett, this was completely uncalled for. And youve done this for the second time in a row. Big Show, hes too valuable a player to lose to injury. And I cant risk his health. Barrett, youve been suspended for the same actions two weeks ago. And I dont know why your suspensions were taken off. But youve made the same mistake again and now I am not going to suspend you. I am going to fire you.

*The crowd cheers*

Stephanie: So Barrett, it would be better if you leave the building yourself or I will have to bring out security to do that.

???: Wait a minute. Steph, Steph, up here.

*On the big screen, Mike Cooper is standing in his office*

Mike: Youre not firing Barrett because he too is a valuable player to lose. But yeah, I sure want to knock some sense into the guy. So next week, Wade Barrett will go one-on-one against the man he injured twice, The Big Show.

Winner: Drew McIntyre

Drew celebrates as Riley and Ryan are shown on the outside with frustrated and agonized looks on their faces. Drew snatches his briefcase from the ref and poses with it. He asks for a mic.

Drew: First off all, congratulate me because I became the owner of a million Pounds because of what I did earlier tonight.

*The crowd boos*

Drew: But let me tell you all, I hold no grudge against Kofi Kingston except for the fact that I hate his over-friendly attitude. But, it had nothing to do with me attacking him and sending him through a windshield and costing him the coveted Intercontinental championship.

*More boos*

Drew: And let me tell you, I dont like Alberto Del Rio. Hes a rich brat. He cant back up his talk. So, the only reason why I attacked Kofi, is because I wanted this briefcase with a million Pounds in it. And, the reason why I did what I did is because I want to prove to the entire roster, to you people and especially to Alberto Del Rio, that I am the best man on this RAW roster.

*The crowd continues to boo*

Drew: And Del Rio, I will win the battle royal set to take place two weeks from tonight and I will challenge you for the Intercontinental championship. Not only will I face you for the title, but I will beat you for it! And I will become your new Intercontinental champion! And that is a promise!

*Drew drops the mic and continues celebrating as we go backstage where Trish is standing with a medic*

Trish: And what about Kelly? Is she okay?

*A few cheers can be heard in the arena*

Trish: Thats, thats great news.

*John Cena enters the scene which brings out loud cheers from the crowd and the medic leaves*

Trish: Hey John. How are you?

Cena: Im fine. By the way, I didnt have a chance to do it, so congratulations for winning that title.

Trish: Oh, thank you. So wheres this thing with Punk going?

Cena: Apparently, its going to Judgment Day. And I can promise you that at the PPV, I will beat Punk. I will prove that I am best in the world.

Trish: I hope you do that John. And, good luck for your match tonight.

Cena: Thanks.

*Cena leaves. Trish too starts walking off but Punk stops her which brings out more cheers*

Punk: Can you spare a few moments for me?

Trish: Whats it?

Punk: Well, can you tell your boyfriend that he has no chance against me at Judgment Day and that he has no chance of winning tonight.

*The crowd cheers for another Pipebomb*

Trish: First off all, John is not my boyfriend. Second, you know that youre going to get yours come Judgment Day. And I know and these people know, that John is going to whoop your candy ass.

Punk: Wow. You sounded like The Rock.

*A small laugh can be heard in the arena*

Punk (imitating The Rock): Well then, if you dont want to do that, I am sure you that you can teach Mister Fruity Pebbles some moves because with his current 5 Moves of Doom, he has no chance against the awesome-looking, cheesiness-chopping, Pipebomb-dropping Best In The World, CM Punk! If you smelllllllllllll what Punk is COOKIN!

**Break The Walls**

Back from the break and Chris Jerichos music hits and he comes out in a suit to a loud reaction of boos with a few cheers here and there.

He asks for a mic. He is about to speak but a loud You Suck! chant interrupts him. He lets them die out and begins.

Jericho: And I thought Canadians were different from the Americans.

*The crowd boos*

Jericho: I thought Canadians had some respect for the man who has achieved so much in professional wrestling. But as for me, I dont care about who you are or what you want to say. I am here to do what I do best. I am here to be the best. I will be the best. I am the best.

*Another you suck! chant begins*

Jericho: With that being said, you people throwing insults at me, its just wasting your energy because I couldnt care less about you. So apparently, tonight, Triple H has a surprise for me. And I just hope it isnt another "Cerebral Assasin" t-shirt because it stinks.

*Boos*

Jericho: And before Triple H could come out and start running his mouth about how he is not what he is because of being a McMahon, I came out here to tell you why he is. All his successes, The Game, The Cerebral Assassin, the 13-time World champion, it all came after he married Stephanie. And when you look back at his career, you so no other accolades that define him or his career.

*More boos*

Jericho: The truth hurts, doesnt it? It sure does. And that is what tells me that all you people know this, understand this but are not ready to accept it just because Triple H feeds you with false promises of representing you and that is why you cheer him day in and day out. And that tells me that Triple H and each and every one of you, are nothing but a bunch of hypocrites.

*A vintage Jericho insult brings him nothing but boos*

**The Game**

Triple Hs music hits and he comes out to a loud pop in a Genibus Nitito Canis t-shirt and jeans with his hair tied in a pony, the bottle in his hand. He looks at the crowd who start a Triple H! chant and he smiles back at them. He walks down the ramp and stops at the end of it to give Jericho a smug look. He jumps on the apron and does the signature water-spit. He gets into the ring and asks for a mic. He is about to speak but Jericho interrupts.

Jericho: Take pride Hunter, because they cheer you. These parasites idolize you. Because you are one of them. You are a leech living off the McMahon family name.

*More boos for Jericho*

Hunter: Well, um, I think they idolize me because we all are more charismatic than you ever can be.

*Cheers*

Hunter: Anyways, why I interrupted you is because if I hadnt, you wouldve gone on and on and on about how I am not deserving of what I have achieved and I wouldnt let you do that. Because I dont want these people to be served with a plate of fresh, hot crap!

*More cheers*

Hunter: So why we are assembled in this wonderful arena in a wonderful city that produced only one disgusting individual, which of course is you Chris, is because I have a big, bad surprise. And your question shouldnt be what but it should be WHO. Right, my surprise, is an alive, walking, human!

*The crowd cheers in anticipation*

Hunter: And the thing is Chris, he and you, youre quite alike. Just like you, he is one of the best technical wrestlers the WWE Universe has ever seen. Just like you, he is respected all around the world. Just like you, he has held countless number of championships in the WWE. And just like you, he is a Canadian.

*The crowd goes wild*

Hunter: But, I didnt say you both are very alike. I said you are QUITE alike. And that means there are some differences. But the major difference is, these people like him and he gives them the same amount of respect, they shower on him. So without further introduction, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Canadas very own, from Montreal, BRET THE HITMAN HART

**Return The Hitman**

Bret Harts music hits and he comes out to a humongous pop, the loudest of the night. He waves at the fanatic crowd from the stage and walks down the ramp in a jeans, black jacket with a Hitman t-shirt underneath and the sunglasses, as usual, are on. He takes them out at the end of the ramp and gives it to a child who cant believe what just happened. Bret gets in the ring and hugs Triple H before getting a mic.

Bret: Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada!

*The crowd goes wild*

Bret: Thank you for the warm welcome.

Jericho: So another parasite entering the ring with me, huh?

Bret: Who are you talking about? Hulk Hogan? I see him nowhere near the arena.

*The crowd cheers the controversial statement*

Bret: Son, I am the best there is, the best there was and the best there ever will be.

Jericho: Uh, thats just another of your countless clichés. You are not the best Bret. I am. Who interrupted The Rock on his debut in the WWE? Me. Who is the man of 1004 holds? Me. Who has won six World championships in the WWE? Me. Who was the first-ever Undisputed WWE Champion? Me. Who holds the record of winning the Intercontinental championship an unprecedented 9 times? Me.

Bret: Who is the most boring veteran on the mic? You.

*Cheers*

Bret: Chris, you have held all those feats. And I respect you, I salute you for doing that because you came in an era where Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock and Shawn Michaels dominated the WWE. But havent you changed since then?

*Mixed reactions*

Bret: When you came into the WWE, interrupting The Rock, I saw in you a fire to become great. I saw in you a desire to become the best. I saw in you a determination to be one of the, if not the most successful man in sports and entertainment. I saw in you a raw superstar waiting to explode and catapult his way up to stardom.

*The Jericho fans cheer*

Bret: And mind you, you did become one. All the accolades you mentioned, theyre all yours Chris. But in the process, youve lost everything that took you there. You have lost the support of your fellow superstars, you never-say-die attitude, you have lost all these fans who chanted y2j! every single time you hit the ring. And most of all, youve lost that desire to become great.

*Boos*

Bret: A decade-and-a-half later, when I see, when I take a close look in the same eyes, all I can see is the eyes went from becoming fiery and hot in pursuit of every challenge to cold and talentless. When I look in to you though your eyes, I see nothing but a coward!

*Cheers*

Bret: I see nothing but a cheat, a fraud and a man who cant back up his tough talk in the ring. When you first came in the WWE Chris, I thought I was seeing another man who would make his country proud, but you turned out be just another loser whos spoiling the Canadian name!

*More boos from the crowd*

Bret: You spoiled the name that I, Owen, Edge, Christian, Lex Luger, Chris Benoit, Trish Stratus and countless others built. Youre spoiling a name that has given you everything that you have achieved in your career. And I feel sorry for you, because you have gone from one of the best, to THE worst Canadian!

Jericho: ENOUGH! I have had enough of this shit. Bret, I am still hungry for greatness and what proves it, is I have been able to hang in here for more than 15 years and Ive had my share of successes in a career parallel to selfish people like Triple H. But that hasnt made me selfish. Bret, I dont hog the spotlight that people younger to me deserve. I dont rob their paychecks or their T.V time.

*The crowd boos*

Jericho: When I was young, I saw you wrestle against many greats of the industry and I was awed. I wanted to be like you. But I didnt. And when I look at you now, I am glad I didnt. Because you are sixty-year-old who cant back up his talk in the ring. You are Bret, what I call, a bad image of his former self.

Bret: I can still wrestle better than you Chris.

Jericho: Why dont we try it?

*Jericho and Bret throw their mics down and take off their vests*

Jericho throws a punch but Hunter blocks it and smacks him with a mic in the face. He picks him up and whips him into a boot by Bret. He picks him up and hits the Pedigree. Bret turns him over and locks in the Sharpshooter. The crowd goes wild as Jericho taps out frantically. Hunter grabs a mic and gets in Jerichos face.

Hunter: Get used to the pain and suffering Chris, because as I said, at Judgment Day, youre going to end up in hell!!! Because ITS TIME TO PLAY THE GAME AND I LOVE TO PLAY!

*The crowd goes wild as Bret releases the hold and he and Triple H celebrate as we go to a commercial*

Plus, our insider has reports that Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes will also be in some sort of interaction on the show.

Don't forget to check out the show right here, on WZ.

GLOBAL ICON · Jan 10, 2012

SmackDown! opens with Matt Striker, Josh Matthews and Booker T welcoming us to the Friday Night show. The people are on fire as every single person in the arena is on their feet for the show and its amazing talent. The announcers put over the main-event Sheamus vs The Undertaker match, a re-match from Backlash.

**Smoke and Darkness**

Cody Rhodes music hits and he comes out to open the show to a loud jeer in a red, hooded jacket and his face covered with the foggy protective mask. He walks down the ramp ignoring the insults thrown at him by the WWE Universe and quietly gets into the ring. He asks for a mic and gets it. He takes off the hood to further reveal his distorted face covered by the ugly mask. He slowly begins to speak.

Cody: Arent you surprised to see me open SmackDown!?

*Boos*

Cody: I know you are. But you must get used to it. Because this will be the case every single Friday night after Judgment Day where I beat that piece of garbage, Randy Orton.

*Boos for insulting Orton*

Cody: Speaking of Randy Orton, what he did last week, was just further fuel the fire inside me to destroy that creatures existence from this world to make it a better place to live in. He cost me another match and for those of you who think that he got his punishment last week, you are damn wrong.

*More boos*

Cody: What I did to Randy Orton last week, was just a taste of whats coming for him at Judgment Day. Last week was just a trailer. The real movie begins 5 June 2011 inside the American Airlines Center in Miami, Florida, where Randy Orton will finally get the punishment for his sins.

*A Randy Orton! chant breaks out!*

Cody: You can cheer him all you want, you can boo me all you want, but the truth is, I dont care. And your reactions dont matter to me because when it comes down to me and Orton at Judgment Day, it is my actions that count. And my actions wont be any actions, my actions will be extreme.

*Another you suck! chant is echoed around the arena*

Cody: Randy Orton will pay for the sins he has committed against me. First, he attacked my father, the Hall of Famer, the American Dream, Dusty Rhodes.

*The crowd cheers for the legend*

Cody: He made me helplessly wander around when he kicked me out of Legacy, but that didnt really matter because I kept coming back and now, I have Ortons number. But what he has done over the past two months, is completely intolerable. And that is why I will go to Judgment Day, not to win, but to hurt Orton.

*The boos keep coming*

Cody: At Judgment Day, all of you people who chant RKO! every single time Orton hits the ring, all of you, will be disappointed by the man whom you treat as your God. Orton will be left for dead when I hit him with Cross Rhodes and pin him 1-2-3 after inflicting the same amount of pain he did on me when he kicked me in the skull.

*Cheers for that*

Cody: And finally, when I look back at Orton from the stage, my arms raised in victory, when I look back at him, struggling, helpless, hurt and suffer, that is when my goal will be achieved. That is when I will be SATISFIED!

*The boos grow in number as Cody drops the mic and starts laughing maniacally*

Orton comes in from behind and takes Cody down with a shot to the skull. He punches him down till Cody manages to escape and roll to the corner. Orton waits for him to get up and clotheslines him in the corner. He whips him into another corner and takes him down with a spear. He picks him up and hits a scoop slam. He calls for RKO. He grabs Cody but Cody pushes him off and takes him down with a chopblock to the knee. He picks him up and rams him head-first into the post. He pulls him out and punches him down but Orton reverses and punches Cody down instead. Some security guards and refs rush out to the ring to separate the two and are successful in pulling them apart. Teddy Long comes running out to the stage.

Teddy: Gentlemen, gentlemen. Hold it. You see, you two are not allowed to fight without a reason, when not in a match. So I request you two to stop struggling, or I will have to take necessary actions.

*The crowd boos Teddy for interrupting the fight*

Teddy: But, I know how much you two despise each other and that is why I am going to give you an opportunity to compete against one another. Tonight, it will be Randy Orton and Christian versus Cody Rhodes and the World Heavyweight champion, Edge. Holla holla.

*Teddy Long leaves as the crowd cheers for the announcement and we go to a commercial*

**In The Middle Of It Now**

**Main Yash Hun**

Jinder Mahals music hits and he comes out to loud boos in a suit, with the U.S title hanging over his shoulders and the 7-foot giant, Great Khali, by his side. He poses with the belt on the stage as Khali dances behind him menacingly. They head down the ramp and into the ring where Khali picks Mahal on his shoulders and Mahal lifts the U.S title for everybody to see. Khali starts a Jinder Mahal! chant.

Mahal: Take pride, for your ruler, the King of the United States of America, has stepped foot in this ring.

*Boos*

Mahal: Take pride, because I will guide you lost Americans to the path of success and morality. And I will start off with at least two Americans at Judgment Day. One of them, is Dolph Ziggler. For a man who started off with the Spirit Squad, Ziggler has come a long way. He even was an 8-minute World champion.

*More boos at the mention of Ziggler and his accolades*

Mahal: But since then, hes gone downhill. Hes become just like one of you. Hes become pathetic. Hes become lost. Hes become what he was when he first came into the WWE, hes become a loser.

*Some part of the crowd cheers for calling Ziggler a loser*

Mahal: But at Judgment Day, I will show him how to win. And not only that, but I will put someone else in his place. And that man goes by the name of Daniel Bryan.

*Cheers at the mention of Bryan*

Mahal: Daniel Bryan is a former United States champion, the worst of course, but he is an NXT reject. And that man who has no class, no style, no material, that man who got suspended for spitting on an announcer, that same man thinks he can beat me, Jinder Mahal.

*The boos start coming again*

Mahal: Just like all of you, hes living in a world full of fantasies. But at Judgment Day, I will bring him into the real world. I will show him how I outclass and outperform him in every sense. And when I do that, he will know that I am no ordinary being. I am not a fat, useless American. I am a very successful Indian and I am better than all of you combined. And my third opponent, who will qualify tonight, hes going to be no big deal.

*More boos*

Mahal: And then, when I put three of my opponents where they belong, I will take each and everyone of you and try, try to make you better people. More intense, more useful and more successful. At least after I do that, I hope, I think you people will respect me and bow to me because I am the true King of the United States of America.

**Perfection**

The boos grow in number as Dolph Zigglers music blares out of the speakers and he makes his way down the ramp in his wrestling gear. He taunts the crowd on his walk to the ring. He gets in the ring and taunts the champ and his apprentice and asks for a mic. He climbs the turnbuckle and poses which brings out more boos.

Dolph: First off all, let me tell you, U.S.A doesnt have a king. We have a democratic government and the President is the highest official. Second, you need shut up because that was the worst promo Ive heard in my entire life.

*Cheers for Ziggler for the first time*

Dolph: I mean, seriously!? You think you can bring us back to the path of success with your actions? I highly doubt it. You could try with these people and Daniel Bryan but not with me. You see I am a former United States champion, a former Tag Team champion, a former Intercontinental champion and a former World Heavyweight champion. So technically, Ive had more successes than you could dream of.

*Mixed reactions erupt*

Dolph: Jinder Mahal, heres a reality check for you. Youre no spiritual guru and we are certainly not your followers. You are a damn WWE superstar, and its high time you act that way. Because with you running your mouth that way, youre making the U.S title seem irrelevant. And that, it is not.

*Cheers for the respect given to the U.S title*

Dolph: But I know that you will continue to give these stupid advices until youre champion, so Ive decided to take that title from you instead. Judgment Day, will be your last day as U.S champion, because after that, that championship will belong to the Epitome of Perfection, Dolph Ziggler.

*Boos*

Mahal: So you actually think that you can beat me when I have Great Khali by my side?

Dolph: That dude, he cant even stand properly. He actually had a Kiss Cam running. And that to me was the worst show the WWE has aired on its programming. But anyways, he reflects what a person you are, because he is your choice. But you know who is my choice? She is the hot, beautiful, stunning and most successful manager in the history of the WWE, she is my girlfriend, she is Vickie Guerrero!

*The boos explode out of the arena as Vickie Guerrero makes her way out*

Vickie: Excuse me!

*Boos*

Vickie: I said excuse me!

*More boos*

*Vickie is now in the ring*

Vickie: Jinder Mahal, Dolph is right. If anyone is walking out the U.S champion at Judgment Day, it is him! And no one can stop him from doing it because now by his side, he has me. And together, we are not only going to rule SmackDown! but we are going to rule the entire WWE!

*Vickie drops the mic and we go to a commercial because the final U.S title qualification match is next*

Back from the break and Chavo Guerrero is already in the ring. He is warming up for the match as Jinder Mahal and Dolph Ziggler settle themselves at the announce table with Great Khali and Vickie Guerrero standing beside their respective partners.

**Mein Teil**

Avernos music hits and he comes out to a decent reaction. He poses on the stage with pyros exploding in the background. He slaps hands with the people as he walks down the ramp. He gets into the ring and climbs a turnbuckle and poses which brings out a small cheer in the crowd. He takes a good look at one of his opponents in the veteran Chavo Guerrero.

**Ancient Spirit**

Pyros go off on the stage when he lands on his feet inside the ring. He climbs the turnbuckle and poses which brings out major cheers from the crowd as Mahal and Dolph continue to bash each other at the commentary table with the announcers trying to keep them quite.

**Written In My Face**

Sheamus comes out to loud boos in a green Laoch t-shirt and tights. He smugly walks down the ramp, the big chain with the big locket dangling around his neck. He gets in the ring and poses which brings out a You Suck! chant from the crowd. Sheamus asks for a mic and looks like he is going to get down to business.

Sheamus: First off all, tonight, I am going to restart my winning ways when I beat the man I beat three weeks ago at the Backlash pay-per-view. But, I am not here to tell you what you already know. You see, my entire childhood, I spent in my home-country, Ireland. I grew up there. I became the fiery warrior that I am there.

*The crowd boos*

Sheamus: Just like all of you, I too had my share of friends. We played together. We watched the WWE together. But, unlike them, I actually lived my dream. I became a WWE superstar and within a year, I beat Triple H, John Cena, Randy Orton, The Undertaker, of course, and I became a two-time WWE champion.

*More boos*

Sheamus: And I am going to become the World Heavyweight champion come Judgment Day. But I paid my dividends for what I got, for what I achieved. I had to leave my friends and my family in Dublin and migrate to the States for a better living. For living my dream. And when I met my best friend, two days ago, you know what he told me?

*The crowd lets out a what!*

Sheamus: He looked me in the eyes, and he said, Fella, your win at Backlash was a fluke. You cannot beat The Undertaker!

*The crowd lets out a roar for that*

Sheamus: My best friend, who had my back for so many years, tells me, that I cant beat his childhood hero. Now thats when I realized, that my quest to become the best on SmackDown!, my mission to prove to the world that The Undertaker is a beatable human, is still not complete. You see, I not only have to beat Undertaker, but I have to rip him apart and finish him once and for all if I have to breathe, the air of respect and belief.

*The crowd starts an Undertaker! chant*

Sheamus: And I told my friend, Fella, you neednt worry about that. Because I will sooner than later beat your childhood hero, who is now a beaten, bruised and old excuse of his former self, I will beat him to a pulp and shorten his legendary career. And thanks to Teddy Long, that opportunity, meets me tonight!

*More boos for the Celtic Warrior*

Sheamus: I will beat The Undertaker tonight, and I will prove to my friend, to all of you and to The Undertaker that I am indeed better than him. Because you can fluke once. But when you win twice, its called greatness.

*The crowd cant stop booing the arrogant monster*

Sheamus: And then, after beating Undertaker, I will go to Judgment Day as a former two-time WWE champion and I will walk out the brand new World Heavyweight champion!

**Just Close Your Eyes**

Christians music hits the speakers and the crowd cheers for the leader of the Peeps. He is out in a checkered shirt and jeans with white sneakers on. He slaps hands with the people on his walk down the ramp and gets in the ring. He takes a good look at Sheamus before posing for the cheering fans. He asks for a mic.

Christian: First off all, congratulations on retaining your spot in the title match.

*Christian stretches out his hand, but Sheamus refuses to accept*

Christian: Huh. Second, I can truly, truly understand what you are going through right now. And I am not lying. Because I have been going through the same feeling for 17 years. A feeling of betrayal, a feeling of pathetic, a feeling of being let down and dropped out and not being respected. A feeling of not being recognized as a top superstar.

*Mixed reactions*

Christian: I have been going through for 17 years, taunts and torments and torture from the likes of Edge and Triple H and Kurt Angle and Chris Jericho saying I could never-ever get to the top of the mountain. And I know that is what makes you feel dejected and neglected. But unlike most of the others, I stood up to it.

*Another set of mixed reactions*

Christian: Yeah, I know the left the company. But that was rehab and return, not walk out. I stood up to my naysayers and I came back stronger than ever and now I am in the best shape of my life. And trying to understand what you are saying, I know that you too are capable of achieving great highs Sheamus.

*Boos for the Sheamuss praise*

Christian: But I am going to give you a piece of advice. Dont listen to your doubters. Dont listen to your opponents. Listen to your inner voice. And right now, I know it is telling you to destroy anything and everything that comes in your way. Listen to your self and do whatever it takes to get to the top because if you dont, people will crack you from the inside with their bad mouths.

*Boos for Captain Charismas that sentence*

Christian: But listen to these people. These people will lead you to the right direction in your career. Treat them with respect and theyll give you a reaction. Treat them with honesty and they will like you back. And listen to me Sheamus, go out there and give it your best every single time you hit the ring, because that is what has kept me alive for so many years in this business.

*Cheers*

Christian: But, remember, I have been struggling for a decade, and I have finally got my chance. And it comes at Judgment Day. At Judgment Day, nobody is going to stop me from becoming the World Heavyweight champion and I am going to prove that I am indeed one of the top bankable stars in the WWE.

*More cheers*

Christian: And I will not forgive or forget anyone who comes in my way. And by the looks of the Judgment Day card, I know you will. But Sheamus, Judgment Day is not your night. Judgment Day is my night. It is the night where I prove my worth, it is the night where I become the brand-new World Heavyweight champion!

GLOBAL ICON · Jan 10, 2012

Edge: Hello ladies and gentlemen. It is that time of SmackDown!, which you call your favorite, the World Heavyweight champion speaks!

*The crowd boos*

Edge: Earlier tonight, Sheamus and Christian confronted each-other, with Christian giving Sheamus some “lessons of life”. How pathetic! But that wasn’t what caught my attention. It was what they had to say AT THE END. You know why the emphasis on “at the end”? Because that shows how disrespectful they are to the World Heavyweight championship.

*More boos*

Edge: Two guys, who put values of life before the World title, are going to compete against a man who believes the World title is his life and who can do anything to get it and just about everything to keep it, think they can actually walk out of Judgment Day, with gold around their waste. Now that is something truly irritating.

*The crowd can’t stop booing*

Edge: Because I have proven to all you people, to Christian, to Sheamus, to The Undertaker and to the management time and time again that I am indeed the face of SmackDown! and what I have done to help this brand, no man has ever thought of doing. The Rock just built this brand, but I further made it watchable.

*Edge plays heel awesomely, as the crowd continue to boo*

Edge: And this World title that is around my shoulders, it is proof that I am the best man on the SmackDown! roster and I can beat not one, not two, not three but the entire roster to retain what I love, what I am here for. The World title, nobody can take it from me. Be it a young, up and coming white monster, be it an out-of-his-prime “Deadman”, or be it a 17-year old failure!

*More boos for the Rated-R Superstar*

Edge: And at Judgment Day, I am going to prove it again. No matter from where they come, no matter how they come, I am ready to take every shot and give an eye-for-an-eye and I am ready to risk my living, if it means to die the World Heavyweight champion. But I won’t. If someone has got to die, then it well maybe any one of my three opponents or even all of them. The truth is, I am superior to all of them and I know it, you know and even they know it!

*A “You Suck!” chant begins in the arena*

Edge: I don’t suck. I bring a class and an edge to this Friday Night show and I am going to bring a class and an edge to the American Airlines Center on 5th June 2011, where I retain MY World Heavyweight championship!

*Edge leaves for ringside as we go to a commercial*

He does his “rock star” pose on the stage with pyros exploding in the background as the World Heavyweight championship around his shoulders shines in the bright light. He runs into the ring and climbs up the turnbuckle and poses to which the crowd starts a “Rated ******!” chant. Edge poses with the title further annoying the crowd.

**Just Close Your Eyes**

He gets in the ring and climbs the turnbuckle and again searches for his Peeps after which he moves his hand around his waist signaling that he will win the World title at Judgment Day. The crowd starts a “Let’s Go Christian!” chant.

**Voices**

Randy Orton’s music hits and he comes out to the loudest pop of the night. He slowly and menacingly walks down the ramp eyeing his prey, Edge and Cody Rhodes. He slowly gets in the ring with the fans cheering his name. He goes atop the turnbuckles and poses his signature pose with the crowd going wild for him. A loud “RKO!” chant echoes around the arena as Orton smirks at his Judgment Day opponent.

*The crowd cheers*

Kane throws plates flying off tables and throws everything that he finds to the floor. He grabs a crew member and throws him into some dashboards.

He takes out a kendo stick from a trash can and keeps smashing it on the door but to no avail. Heath Slater comes running to him.

Bearded Review

-I'm on fucking fire right now mang. Get ready, I'm coming guns-a-blazin'. I don't recall the last time I wrote a review for your show GI. For that I apologize. I do read the show when I do my run through the section.

-Fabulous promo from Rhodes to open the show. I was buying it from the beginning and I love that you brought up the past with Dusty and Legacy. This could be a huge rub for Cody, lets hope you pull it off. (Side note: Teddy Long made a tag team match, playa! #lamejoke)

-Umm I may have missed something (and I'm too tired to page back), but why are the tag team champs fighting each other? Maybe there is a reason behind that madness, but nonetheless it was a solid match. As much as I prefer Ryder, I'm glad Hawkins won. Ryder is the more popular one and the win for Hawkins doesn't make him an afterthought to his partner. Usos coming out afterwards signaling for the belts. Looks like we have a championship match in the making now don't we?

-And here comes Susan B. Anthony, I'm sorry it's Rosa Parks, nope wrong again. Ahh yes Gizzard 8Ball. No that ain't it? Curry McSpicy? No. I know, it's Jinder Mahal. Ignore my rambling, it is an inside joke with my group of friends. Nice little promo from Mahal, I actually enjoyed it. Looks like you have made him a legit force here. Congrats. Ziggler's promo I wasn't a fan of. It didn't flow right to me and something just felt off about it.

-Nice match here, I had Chavo slated for a sneaky win considering his relation to Vickie and it could help Dolph's case in capturing the US title, but Sin Cara was definitely the right choice. Good to see the masked sensation get into the title hunt here. I don't know much about Averno, so I can speak as to how good he is or not.

-I'm looking forward to this Michael Cole show, it could be gold. Nice little touch fella. Speaking of fella here comes the big bad Sheamus. Good little promo between Sheamus and Christian. I could feel Christian's pain and frustration and I could sense Sheamus' confidence with this talk and I could Excellent work. Best segment of the show thus far.

-Is Mysterio doing anything or is he just floating around at the moment? Nothing wrong with either option, but definitely keep the door open for him as he could be a valuable asset here. Nice match and Dibiase looked like a competitor against the better Mysterio. I recall Rey fighting for the WHC recently, so maybe this is just a break from the action for him. Hopefully we see some more of Ted down the road.

-Nice tag team match here. All four men looked strong in the process and the heels winning is the right move.

-Wasn't really feeling the divas promo. Trish calling the Bellas losers just felt off as she is the face in this scenario. Kane going berserk and destroying Slater. Cool beans. Interested in where that ends up. Divas match going to a no decision, good move. Trish and Candice looked good in the match and Kharma looks strong at the end. Good booking.

-Judgement Day is looking like a good PPV. Nice match cards bee tee dubs. Must have been a creative genius who made them

.

-Great match, match of the night right there. It took more than just Sheamus to beat Taker and that's the way it should be. Even if the win ain't clean Shemaus beat Taker again and looks strong going into the title match. Edge and Sheamus now try to destroy Taker, but Captain C makes the save. And guess what? Teddy Long makes a tag team match!?!?! WHAT!?!?! Joking aside, right move as we get closer to Judgement Day.

-Overall the show was solid. Matches were excellent, no real flaws there. Promos were hit or miss and could use some work, but nothing that detracted from the show. Heel-heel promos are hard to function at times and the divas one isn't a major flaw. Solid show and I look forward to Raw. Also I'll be sure to get in here for more reviews and I'll add you to the list of people I just throw reviews at when I go on a rampage in these parts. Keep up the work fella.

Monday, live from Allstate Arena, Chicago, Illinois.

Venom Pickers

It's just six days away from Judgment Day and the WWE champion and his contender are picking opponents for each other. YES! It's Pick Your Poison. With Miz and Morrison taunting each-other for several weeks, its now down to the wire. They pick the toughest opponents they find for each-other and they are sure in for a hell-ride. But who will walk out with the momentum less than a week away from their championship match, one can know only in Chicago.

Final Face-Off

Dubbed as the "Final Face-Off" before Judgment Day, the men who will compete for the rights of being called "Best In The World" meet one last time, in the ring at the same time. With the hometown boy, CM Punk bringing his Pipebombs to the city where he grew up, John Cena will come all guns blazing with his "Hustle, Loyalty and Respect". Who will have to say what only they know but the Allstate crowd is surely in for a great back-and-forth.

Making It Official

No Holds Barred. One of the most brutal matches in history. No disqualifications, no count-outs. Just two men brawling like beasts. Chris Jericho has said that Triple H won't be the same again and Triple H has vowed to send Chris Jericho to hell. But amongst the confusion, someone is sure to get hurt. So, to avoid lawsuits and controversies, Stephanie McMahon has set an official contract signing that will be supervised by Hall of Famer and commentator Jerry "The King" Lawler.

A Main-Event of The Groins

Pardon the joke, I know it was lame. So after a few weeks of cat and mouse, the Winds of Change himself, NXT Season 1 winner, Nexus leader, Wade Barrett comes face-to-face with the man whose "groin" he injured, the World's Largest Athelete, The Big Show. Can Barrett get past a quarter ton of raw strength or will the Weapon of Mass Destruction be enough to stop the Barrett Barrage, only the match will decide.

Confirmed matches

Wade Barrett vs Big Show

The Miz vs ???

John Morrison vs ???

Jimmy Uso vs Jey Uso [Winner faces Curt Hawkins on SmackDown!]

Alberto Del Rio, Drew McIntyre and Mason Ryan vs Evan Bourne and Santino and Kozlov

Live from Allstate Arena, Chicago, Illinois

The host of the Saturday Night Verdict Michael Cole and Jim J.R Ross welcome us to Monday Night RAW, the final before WWE Judgment Day. They put over the Wade Barrett vs Big Show main-event and the Final Face-Off between John Cena and the hometown boy, CM Punk, both to be held later in the night. Jerry The King Lawler, Cole and J.Rs partner is in the ring, with a paper in hand, where a table and two chairs are set up.

King: Welcome to Monday Night RAW from one of the best arenas in the world, the Allstate Arena!

*The crowd cheers*

King: We are just six days away from an epic, epic pay-per-view called Judgment Day. We have some great matches, some excellent feuds going in to that epic PPV. And, one of them is going to be made legally official here tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, now is the contract signing, for the No Holds Barred match set to take place at Judgment Day between Chris Jericho and Triple H.

*The crowd cheers for the match*

King: I am just as excited as you are. Tonight, right now, its time to make it legal. No disqualifications, no count-outs, no rules, no regulations. Just two men hitting the ring and hitting each other with everything they have and they have everything. So without any further ado, Chicago, please welcome, Chris Jericho!

**Break The Walls**

Chris Jerichos music hits and he comes out to loud boos in a tailor-made black suit. He gives the Chicago fans a rough look as the crowd shouts Y2Sucks! in his face. He ignores them and arrogantly walks to the ring and inside it. He takes a mic from the table and plays the crowd with taunts before turning to King. He begins to speak.

Jericho: The Chicago parasites and you are one of their idols, arent you King?

*Boos*

Jericho: You are just another one of those retired, senseless, classless, Hall of Fame jobbers who return to take away the spotlight from the young, better talent just for a paycheck because you cant work your butt off to keep your family in good health and wealth.

*More boos*

Jericho: But dont feel isolated King, because there are many others with you. Your big fat barbecue colleague Good Ol J.R. Seriously J.R, you cant let your voice out of your larynx and to the audience because there is barbecue sauce all over your throat.

*The crowd cant stop booing as Cole further taunts J.R*

Jericho: And another one of them, is of course, the man who got screwed by Vince McMahon and who still came back forgetting his self-respect just to get that fat amount of money that will fill his stomach. That man is none other than another of these parasites, their biggest idol yet, Bret Hart.

*Boos for insulting Hitman*

Jericho: And what he did last week, was totally unappreciable. Take a look.

*A video airs showing Bret Hart attacking Chris Jericho and locking him in the Sharpshooter*

King: So youre complaining because you got your ass handed out by a parasite?

Jericho: King, Bret Hart, who is nothing more than a wretched, stupid image of his former self and he comes out of the blue hell and tells me that I am the worst Canadian there is? That is what I am frustrated at. Because Bret Hart, what he did in his entire career, not just humiliated the WWE and its representatives but also the entire nation of Canada. And it took me 12 years to get back that name.

*More boos from the Allstate arena*

Jericho: And then, I single-handedly did what he couldnt in his over-hyped, over-rated career. I took out Shawn Michaels.

*The boos are flowing like a river*

Jericho: I am the best Canadian these people have ever seen. I hold the record for the most Intercontinental championships won, 9 to be exact. I am a six-time World champion. I am the first-ever Undisputed WWE champion and I beat Stone Cold and The Rock on the same night, in the same ring to do that.

*The Y2Sucks! chants begin again*

Jericho: Bret Hart, just like you, just like J.R, just like Triple H is a buffoon who tends to these hypocrites day in and day out just because he wants his face to be seen on international television and I am sick and tired of all of you. And when I beat Triple H at Judgment Day, when I punish him, I am sure I will put all of you, in your place!

**The Game**

Triple H comes out interrupting Chris Jericho to huge cheers in a Cerebral Assassin t-shirt and jeans, with his hair tied in a pony. He heads straight to the ring without many hellos to the audience. He gets in the ring and nods at King before staring down at Jericho who stares back. Hunter takes the other mic placed on the table and gets closer to his Judgment Day opponent.

Hunter: Jericho, first off all, your focus, your attention should be towards me because I am the man whos going to give you yours, I am the man who is going to put you in your place, not King or J.R or Bret. I am the man whos going to finish you off once and for all so that all of us do not have to hear you ranting again and again and again.

*The crowd cheers The Game*

Hunter: And there is another reason as to why I chose No Holds Barred at Judgment Day, and that is, Jericho, I am going to show you that you are a parasite living off the name that Bret Hart and all the other Canadians built. You are nothing but a slimy, oily coward who mouths off in the ring and doesnt have the balls to back up his tough talk in the ring.

*More cheers*

Hunter: Another thing, J.R, King, Bret, they deserve this last run because they have dedicated their time, their energy, their bodies, their voice, their entire life to this business, to this company, to this WWE Universe. And they didnt fozz around nor they did make a Downfall. And they certainly did not dance with the stars.

*The crowd cheers for the taunts as Jerichos anger heats up*

Hunter: Chris, youve got a problem with all these people, and to tell you the truth, theyve got a problem with you. Ive got a problem with you. And Judgment Day is where I am going to get the solution. Judgment Day is the day when their wish comes true, is when my purpose is fulfilled. Because Judgment Day is the day you go to where you belong, hell!

*A Triple H! chant breaks out!*

Jericho: I am going to hell, I know that Triple H, but I am taking you with me. There is no chance you can outlast me in such a brutal match because I know who you are Hunter. You are tough, strong from the outside, but your core, your inside has a big-big hole. Your inside is melting by the minute. Your inside is hurting every time I tell you that you are a leech living off the McMahon family name, because you never thought somebody might realize it, somebody might say it on television.

*The boos come back again*

Jericho: You are an angry bitch who wants to get his hands on me but let me tell you, with the speed at which I am running, I might just slip out of your hands and you will fall face-first into the ground. You Triple H, will lick the dirt after I punish you, torture you at Judgment Day and humiliate you after pinning you 1-2-3. And that Triple H, is when my purpose will be fulfilled. My purpose of proving that you are a nobody without your wife!

*Boos*

Jericho: When I sign this contract, our fate is sealed. Mine, is to be a more successful competitor, and yours is to go back to where you belong, in Stephanie McMahons lap.

*A Y2J! chant is started by a few smarks in the crowd as Jericho signs the contract*

Hunter: Hold it, Jericho, because Ive got something for you.

*He motions to somebody in the back and a few members of the crew come out with a large bed and on it are placed crutches*

Hunter: Take it Jericho, because after what I do to you at Judgment Day, you might just need it.

*Hunter signs the contract, drops the mic and is about to leave but Jericho interrupts him*

Jericho: Triple H, wait a second, I too have something for you.

*Jericho smacks the mic in Triple Hs head*

He kicks away at him and then throws the table out of the ring. He takes off his suit and lowers his tie and continues to stomp away at The Game. He turns to the crowd and yells this is your idol! and slaps Hunter left and right. He punches him down. The crowd suddenly start cheering and Bret Hart is seen jumping the barricade and he gets in the ring. He ducks a clothesline from Jericho and kicks him in the gut followed by a DDT. He picks him up and whips him into a Triple H spinebuster. Hunter picks Jericho up and hits the Pedigree. Bret grabs Jericho by the legs and locks in the Sharpshooter. Jericho starts tapping out almost immediately and Hunter smirks at him.

Bret releases the hold and he and Hunter celebrate for a moment or two. Hunter goes out of the ring and has barely started walking when Bret Hart gets the mic.

Bret: Jericho, you are right. Your fate is indeed sealed. Because at Judgment Day, in the American Airlines Center, I will be present in Hunters corner.

*The crowd goes wild for the announcement as Bret drops the mic and joins Hunter on the outside and we go to a commercial*

Back from the break and a video shows what happened before the break.

**Get Up**

Jimmy Uso comes out to The Usos old music. He does the Siva Tau on the stage and walks to the ring. He gets in and sticks out his tongue, Anoai style. He pumps himself up with his warm-up and gets on the turnbuckle. He signals that he is going to win the tag-team championship with his brother and next opponent, Jey Uso.

**So Close Now**

The Usos current theme hits and Jimmys brother, Jey Uso, also the son of legendry Rikishi, comes out and does the Siva Tau on the stage as the crowd boos him. He runs down the ramp and into the ring and climbs the turnbuckle and poses.

**AWESOME!!**

The Mizs music hits and he comes out to a loud reaction of boos in his wrestling gear. He poses on the stage and the crowd continues to throw boos at him. He struts down to the ring and into it and poses one more time to annoy the crowd. He asks for a mic and gets it. He plays the crowd a little before posing for a third time and yelling that hes awesome. Finally, he puts the mic to his lips and begins to speak.

Miz: I know that you are jealous of me. Because I am more awesome than youre hometown hero, CM Punk.

*Boos*

Miz: But I am not here to talk about CM Punk. I am here for my Pick Your Poison match. Now, though I know that John Morrisons choice will be as mediocre as his title reign is, I am going to face his choice and beat his choice. And the same way, I will face his reign at Judgment Day and I will end his reign at Judgment Day.

*Another set of boos*

Miz: You see for two months, two straight months, John Morrison has had a fairytale run with the gold that he never thought he would have had. And he still wouldnt if the better CEO, Vince McMahon was still running the company.

*The boos keep coming*

Miz: But, for some reason, Mr. McMahon had to hand over his company to his nephew and we got something we never expected. John Morrison became the WWE champion. The most avoidable of all times. But, but, his fairytale certainly will not have a happy ending. His fairytale will end in shatters, in ruins.

*A You Suck! chant begins*

Miz: I dont care what you have to say Chicago. Just like I dont care what John Morrison is going to bring at Judgment Day. The truth is, 5th June will be the worst day of his career. It will be the day where his dream run will come to an abrupt halt. And it will be halted by none other than the most must-see WWE superstar of all times, now set to become the most must-see WWE champion of all times, The Miz!

*The You Suck! continues to echo around the arena*

Miz: And after I beat the Marty Janetty of his generation, I will show him what a true champion is. A champion has class, style, charisma and talent. And he has none of it. I will show John Morrison why he should be in the dog house and why I should be on top of the food chain. The reason is, because hes John Morrison and he is as mediocre and stupid as it gets.

*A Morrison! chant starts sounding*

Miz: While I am the most must-see WWE champion of all times, I am the man who went from being a Diva Search host to being in the main-event of Wrestlemania, and that came in no time. I carried John Morrison, a floating piece of garbage and made him watchable again! Ladies and gentlemen, I am the first man to beat John Cena one-on-one at WrestleMania, and I am The Miz and Im AWESO.

???: Miz, Miz, stop right there buddy.

*John Morrison comes out on the stage in street clothes with the WWE championship around his shoulder*

Morrison: You know its, its time for your match. For you buddy, I picked up one of my best buddies. Hes hard-hitting and hes pain-loving. You know who he is Miz? You know who he is people?

*The crowd lets out a who!*

Morrison: I wont say his name, but Ill tell you Miz, youre gonna get got!

*Morrison drops the mic and signals for his pick to come out*

**Whats Up?**

R-Truths music hits and he comes out to the tunes of Whats Up? He hugs Morrison on the stage and they discuss something before he walks down to the ring. He slaps hands with the people. He gets in the ring and tells Miz that he just got got and then poses for the Chicago members of the WWE Universe. Morrison wishes Miz luck and walks off as we go to a commercial.

*Cheers for the trio*

Scott: Now, Santino, I have just been informed that you suffered a concussion earlier in the day, how did it happen?

Santino: Oh, that. Me and Kozlov, we were playing basketball and he hit me in the head with the ball. I fell over and hit a stool and that was, concussion.

Scott: So are you ready to compete tonight?

Santino: Certainly not. I am fully not recovered and I am feeling fizzy.

Scott: You mean dizzy?

Santino: Yeah, I mean fizzy. But, but, I have made a replacement for myself. He, is the talented, young, second-generation superstar. He is the son of the legendary Hall of Famer, the late great Curt Hennig. He is Joe Hennig.

*The crowd cheers as Joe Hennig enters the scene*

Scott: Joe, how do you feel on being in the mega six-man tag-team match tonight?

Hennig: Its great Scott. Ever since Alberto defeated me at Backlash, hes been running his mouth. And I wanted to shut him up but didnt get a chance. But tonight, I have it and Im going to use it to my full advantage.

*Cheers*

Hennig: And for Drew McIntyre too, tonights going to be a bad nightmare. Because he took out my friend, Kofi Kingston and now, hes going to pay for it. Tonight, my opponents destiny, is to get beat up. But they, they already know that.

*Hennig winks at the camera and they leave for their match as we go to Alberto Del Rios locker where Alberto Del Rio is taping up his wrists.*

*Drew McIntyre walks in and brings in a lot of boos*

Alberto: How are you Drew?

Drew: Its no time for formalities Alberto. Santinos been replaced by Joe Hennig.

Alberto: I dont care. I already beat Hennig for this Intercontinental championship. And its going to be no big task to beat him again. I dont worry about peasants and nor should you.

*Boos*

Alberto: And besides, we have our back-up plan, dont we?

*Mason Ryan comes in looking ready for his match*

**Aint No Make Believe**

He takes of his glares at the end of the ramp and gives it to a kid. He gets in the ring, atop the turnbuckle and poses with the title. He gets a mic and begins to speak.

Morrison: Hello Chicago!

*Cheers*

Morrison: Huh. Earlier tonight, I picked up an opponent for The Miz. And he was R-Truth. And to tell you the truth, my friend disappointed me. Because I thought Truth could take Miz and wipe the floor with him but its the opposite that happened.

*Boos for that*

Morrison: But anyway, every dog has its day and Mizs day was today. But, what caught my attention, is the Mizs claim to end my so-called fairytale run with the title with a Skull Crushing Finale. Let me tell you Miz, that is not happening.

*More cheers*

Morrison: First, because my run is no fairytale run. Sure, Ive had my sweet moment but the fairies dont have to struggle for more than 7years to get their moment. They dont have to go through innumerable doubters and naysayers. The didnt have to run the race with ass-kissers like The Miz. And I tell you, I did!

*More cheers for the champ*

Morrison: But, but, my tale will have an ending fairytales have. A happy ending. A win over the evil. Yes Miz, at Judgment Day, dont be mistaken that you could capitalize on my mistakes because I am not going to make a single one. Do not think that you can walk away with the title and I will stand there doing nothing. Miz, at Judgment Day, Im coming to fight and I will do just that.

*A Morrison! chant breaks in the arena*

Morrison: Judgment Day, you wont be walking out the most-must see WWE champion for two things Miz. First, because you are not most-must see. Second, I wont let you do that. This WWE championship is what I have fought and crawled and scratched for. And I wont let it slip away to a jerk like you.

*Cheers for calling Miz a jerk*

Morrison: And one final thing Miz, you may call yourself Awesome. But I am the WWE champion and I am going to stay that way!

*Morrison drops the mic waiting for his opponent to come out*

**AWESOME!!**

The Miz comes out in a t-shirt with a mic.

Miz: Strong words Morrison. Good work. I think youve rehearsed. But you cant rehearse for our match, can you? And that is your weak point. You plan things. I am not a planner. I am a doer. I am going to come all guns blazing at Judgment Day, rip you part, hit you with a Skull Crushing Finale and take the WWE championship from you.

*Boos for the #1 contender*

Miz: And that by no means is a plan. That is just a guess. And I think that guess is right because that IS what will happen to you Morrison. So better keep cherishing the title. Youre just six days away from losing it. Because Im The Miz and Im AWESOME!!!!

*More boos*

Miz: And your opponent, I wont say his name. But Ill tell you that you are going to go through Hellfire and Brimstone!

**Man On Fire**

Kanes pyros explode on the stage and out comes the Big Red Monster looking directly at his prey, the WWE champion.

He waits for Barrett to get up and clotheslines him down. He picks him up and hits a delayed vertical suplex. He hooks both legs.

Show gets frustrated and thus pumped up. He looks at his fist and then calls for the WMD. He swings his fist at Barrett but Barrett ducks and kicks Show in the groin again!! The ref calls for the bell.
Winner: Big Show (by D.Q)

Barrett quickly rolls out of the ring and heads up the ramp silently as Show is down on his knees in the center of the ring holding his groin in pain and frustration. Barrett slowly retreats up the ramp with the crowd booing him heavily in the background. He stops at the stage and turns back to Show whose anger boils by the minute as he shakes with frustration, still holding his groin. They show numerous replays of the end of the match. The two men still stare at each-other as we go to the final commercial of the night, the Final Face-Off to happen next.

**Cult Of Personality**

Back from the break and CM Punks music hits. Out comes the hometown boy to the loudest pop of the night. He smirks at the crowd and then goes down on one knee. He looks at his wrist and yells Its Clobberin Time in the air. He walks down to the ring showing the Best In the World catchphrase written on his t-shirt. He gets on the turnbuckle and poses. The crowd starts a CM Punk! chant. Punk gets a mic. He is about to speak but the chants go louder by the minute. He finally begins to speak.

Punk: I love you too, Chicago.

*Cheers*

Punk: This is the city where I grew up, as a person, as a little kid watching the WWE, as a professional wrestler. And I am yet to become a sports-entertainer. Which I will, if I have to overthrow John Cena from the top of the mountain. And when I tell you I will, I will.

*More cheers*

Punk: Now, six days away at Judgment Day, is one of the most hyped non-title match in the history of the WWE. John Cena versus CM Punk with the Best In The World moniker up for grabs.

*Cheers for the match*

Punk: But, I feel that all that hype is for nothing. Because the entire world knows that John Cena cant beat me, John Cena wont me. And after Judgment Day, youll see that John Cena didnt beat me. I will beat John Cena at Judgment Day, and show him where he truly belongs. He belongs on an MTV show. This is World WRESTLING Entertainment and Cena, Im here to stay!

*The kids too join the cheers*

Punk: I will, at Judgment Day, overthrow John Cena from the top of the mountain and finally, after a decade, a true professional in wrestling will carry the biggest company in this business known to man. And that will be the beginning of a new era, the era of WRESTLING, the era where there will be no cheesy catchphrases, no stupid jokes and certainly no 5 moves of doom. That era, will be the era of CM Punk!!

*More and more cheers for the Second City Saint*

**The Time Is Now**

The cheers stop all of a sudden as CM Punks rival, and thus Chicagos rival, John Cena comes out. He looks at the crowd as the crowd throws a You Cant Wrestle! chant at him. He ignores the crowd and looks directly at his Judgment Day opponent. And without any salute, he marches straight to the ring. He gets in and asks for a mic. He stares at Punk for a moment before he begins to speak.

Cena: Hmm-hmm, not the most supporting of crowds here but Ill manage.

*Boos*

Cena: Ive been managing to here your taunts for a whole month without showing much anger. But, but, that doesnt mean I aint angry. Im boiling from the inside. And the reason why I havent shut your mouth the best way I know to, is because I want you a hundred percent at Judgment Day.

*More boos*

Cena: I want you a hundred percent at Judgment Day, because I want to show you, these people here in Chicago and the people all over the world, that you are not Best In The World! Youve got talent, Ill give you that. But you havent got something that makes you the king of the mountain. And that is you havent got a heart.

*The boos keep coming*

Cena: Ill tell you what, I might not be as good as you wrestling-wise, but I can still hang out with wrestling giants because I have the heart to. Punk, you might be a rising star, but you still cant beat me. You still havent got the right to say that you are Best In The World, because you are not.

*A CM Punk! chant begins in the arena*

Cena: At Judgment Day, when you and me, meet in the same ring, at the same time, you know your fate. You know the end result. You know that I can and I will beat you at Judgment Day. And just keep admiring your t-shirt, because after Judgment Day, it will be gone!

*Some of the kids cheer for Cena*

Cena: And

Punk: you mean that you can beat me with your 5 moves of doom? Youre actually good at making others laugh when you dont know youre actually doing it. Cena, I am going to hit you with moves you cant even spell. No, wait, Ill give you a test right now. Name a move that isnt the shoulder-tackle, clothesline, press slam, bulldog, suplex and firemans carry throw, AA if you dont know what I am talking about.

*Cheer for the challenge put forth*

Cena: You wanna check my skills? I dont mind. How about a powerbomb? A spinebuster? An enzugiri? A dropkick? An uppercut? A hiptoss? A belly-to-belly? A piledriver? A moonsault? A Shooting Star Press? A Superkick? Now is that your point? No it isnt. You want to humiliate me and your failing miserably Punk.

*A loud cheer out-of-the-blue for Cena*

Cena: It isnt about how many moves you know or how many moves you can perform. Its the one move that you have to do, and that is to do it for these people.

Punk: That is what I am saying, jerk. I understand this, this, they see you work, they pay you earn psychology and that is what I am saying. These people spend their hard-earned money to buy a ticket and watch us perform every week, and since I am still as much a fan as a wrestler, I know that these people dont want to see you beating the odds again and again and again, pay-per-view after pay-per-view.

*The CM Punk! chant goes off again*

Punk: And as long as you run this company, this will continue to happen. And that is what I am going to change at Judgment Day. I am going to beat you, I am going to end your reign as the top dog. Because I do not want John Cena t-shirts to appear on live television again. I do not want the WWE to go back to having stupid catchphrases and cheesy slogans written on t-shirts. I want a class and I want wrestling back to the company that I represent. And that quest starts at Judgment Day.

*More cheers for Punk*

Cena: You know what Punk, thats enough! You like me, I appreciate. You dont, I appreciate. But if youve got a problem with me, deal with it like a man! And you are not. We have been talking about this for way too long. Its time to settle this the way we do it here in the WWE. I will not let you take my position Punk. Because I have fought too hard for it. Ive crawled and scratched my way against Brock Lesnar and Evolution.

*Cena receives a loud pop*

Cena: At Judgment Day, I dont care if you bring your thirty or thirty-thousand moves. All I care about is that I am going to bring my hundred percent and I am not going down without a fight!

*Cena drops the mic and is about to leave but Punk stops him*

Punk: Wait a minute, wait a minute. John, in these ten years that youve been in the WWE, youve always got more than what youve bargained for. And Judgment Day will be no different. You want a fight, Ill give you a WAR!

*Punk drops his mic and leaves the ring to cheers as Cena stands motionless. Punk stops at the ramp and poses as the crowd continues to cheer and Cena looks on from the ring*

**End of show**

RETURN!!!

As announced on RAW, 3 WWE Divas who were on the injured list after being attacked by one of the challengers for the Women's title at Judgment Day, Kharma, the following 3 divas will be returning to action next week on RAW:

Backstage Interviewer Eve Torres
Kelly Kelly
Melina

Tune in for more updates.

Mr. HD · Jan 20, 2012

Ok Icon, time to review to the Go-Home show for Judgment Day!

Nice opening with Jericho and HHH. Right off the bat, adding some last minute fire to an already hot feud heading into Sunday. But that Bret Hart...Hmm.....? Something just doesn't sit right with me.

A solid match by The Usos here. Most Tag Team Partner matches don't even turn out as good as people expect and good little brawl with The Broskis before their Tag Title Match Sunday.

The Saturday Night Verdict with Michael Cole.....Hmm...?

Great Promo by Miz, I think you got him down pretty good. Bashing Morrison in numerous ways that made it look cool. I feel as if Morrison should've said a little more before introducing Truth as Miz's opponent.

So Miz gets the win and has some momentum heading into Judgment Day, but I have a feeling this isn't the last we've heard from Morrison and Miz tonight.

Nice little segment with Hennig getting renewing his feud with Del Rio and a nice set up to the 6 Man Tag Match coming up next. Should be good.

A quick paced 6 Man Tag Team Match with Hennig getting in some offense and Drew getting WORKED in the beginning. I was gonna say maybe Hennig gets another crack at Del Rio, but Mason Ryan turns face and he looks like he's gonna be the next man to step up. Uh-Oh...

Good banter with Trish and Michelle, but I would've liked that they take friendly jabs at each other showing their competitive nature.

Interesting interview with Mr. Bret Hart. Hmm......

A good Triple Threat to showcase some talent. Always good to have some filler. And Skip get the nod. Hmmm...you must have something planned for this guy.

Morrison's promo worked for me in small ways. It got the point across. His banter with Miz lacked a little more substance. I feel like they should've said a little more.

The Kane/Morrison match was all weird. I don't know. Some of it just didn't flow well. Morrison hit Kane with a double knee attack? I don't know about that one dude. But nonetheless, Morrison gets his win before Sunday. But a nice touch to have Miz capitalize and leave his opponent for Sunday down and out.

A rather interesting promo by The Broskis, but that's what makes them interesting. They're weird, funny, and subtle.

On a side note, I like the other match card graphics you had for Judgment Day. They were simple and looked cool. I guess these are just too big for my liking. But that's JMO.

Kharma looked DOMINANT. I mean, she dropped Candice Michelle onto Michelle McCool for god sakes. Sheesh. Trish even tried and she got taken down. Should be an interesting scenario on Sunday cause it looks like double teaming Kharma won't even do any good. We may have a new Champion.

Wonder what Kane's problem was?

Solid match with Show and Barrett. Match of the night IMO. The countout thing did kill it though. I was hoping for Barrett to get a clean win. But if this is the start of another little feud heading into Judgment Day, then I'm all for it.

Great way to end with Punk and Cena. I like the way you made Punk sound. Pretty much like his character today and I think you nailed it very well. Towards the end, he sounded like Jim Cornette and his NWA Crusade back in 1998, but that's just me. Cena sounded like his old self, I expected more of and edge here. Not that he didn't have one, but I thought he'd have more of one is what I mean.

Overall, I'll give it a B-

Not too little build, but just enough to get people going. Punk/Cena, HHH/Jericho and even Morrison/Miz had some fire to their feud and Kharma made herself look damn near unbeatable and we even saw two more potential matches to be added to the card. Looking forward to seeing what SmackDown does. Should be very intriguing indeed.

GLOBAL ICON · Jan 21, 2012

Thanks for the review, sir. Those graphics, first they were made by JAM, now Theo and I feel both are equally good. Umm, well, that's that for the graphics. The two fueds that you're talking about, Barrett-Show is one, but I didn't get the second one. Maybe because I am not planning to add any more matches to the card. That, I think, will add more intigrue to Barrett-Show. Plus, there are already 8 matches and I don't need to get all of my fueds on the card. Thanks for the review again and check out SmackDown! when it is posted. Also, please vote for the BT! Awards.

Preview

This week on Friday Night SmackDown!, World Heavyweight champion Edge's talk-show, The Cutting Edge makes its return on the show after an absence of nearly half a year.

It's a pleasure to announce that the WWE's CEO himself, Michael Cooper has roped in the British band Motorhead, led by Lemmy to perform Triple H's theme "The Game" live at the American Airlines Center in Miami Florida, at the Judgment Day pay-per-view. So don't forget to tune in.

GLOBAL ICON · Jan 25, 2012

Matt Striker, Josh Matthews and Booker T welcome us to the go-home edition of Friday Night SmackDown!, and we are just two days away from WWE Judgment Day. And it sure is a jam-packed show as the announcers put over the main event tag-team match and Randy Orton vs Chavo Guerrero before promoting The Cutting Edge scheduled to happen right now!

**Metallingus**

Edges vintage music by Alter Bridge hits the speakers and out comes the World Heavyweight champion, the host of the Cutting Edge, The Rated-R Superstar, Edge through a cloud of smoke. He poses on the ramp with the World title as the crowd boos him profusely. He walks down the ramp arrogantly, his glares gleaming as a result of the reflection of light falling on it. He gets in the ring, where placed are four stools. He climbs the turnbuckle and poses with the title again and the crowd boos even more. He asks for a mic.

Edge: Its here! Finally! Its here!

*Boos*

Edge: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to your favorite show on WWE programming, welcome to The Cutting Edge, hosted by your World Heavyweight champion, The Rated-R Superstar, Edge!

*More boos*

Edge: Tonight, we are not only just two days away from Judgment Day, but we are two days away from witnessing history. There are four men, four hungry men, vying for the same championship, the World Heavyweight championship. The championship that I have. And there can be only one man who walks out with the gold around his waist, rightly proving that he is the king of SmackDown!.

*Cheers*

Edge: A match is guaranteed. No, a superb, out-of-this-world, historic match is guaranteed. And also guaranteed is a winner. But who will it be? Will it be Sheamus holding the World Heavyweight title in his fiery red hand?

*Boos for Sheamus*

Edge: Will it be The Undertaker walking away a World champion for the 8th time?

*Cheers*

Edge: Or will it be Christian, who after 17 years will finally taste gold?

*Cheers*

Edge: Well, Ill answer my own questions. None of those scenarios are going to happen. Because there is another thing that is guaranteed, and that is me retaining MY World Heavyweight championship! And there is no denial or no stopping to that.

*A You Suck! chant begins in the arena*

Edge: So now, with that being said, lets see what my opponents have to say about their nil chances of winning. Thats what we are here for, right? So without wasting more time, lets bring out, the man who came to the States straight from Dublin, without a tan, Sheamus.

**Too Many Lies**

The crowd boos The Great White as he makes his way out to ringside. He stares down at Edge from the stage in a green Laoch t-shirt and tights bearing the same slogan. He pounds his chest on the stage and poses as the crowd continues to boo him. He walks down the ramp with Edge staring him down. He gets into the ring and poses one more time as Edge looks on. He picks up a mic placed on a stool as turns towards Edge.

Edge: Before you can speak Sheamus, how about you starting with a story of an Irish king?

Sheamus: So, youre in a joking mood, huh? This is no time to joke, fella. Its time to get serious. Because we are just two days away from, as you said, witnessing history. And history will very well be made. Not because you will walk away with the title, but because I will.

*Boos*

Sheamus: You see, after Judgment Day, till many years to come, this people wont get rid of their hangover. All they will be talking about is how a young guy from Dublin, who wasnt taken seriously until a year ago, beat two worthless Canadians and a stupid, old American Deadman to become the ruler of the World, to become the World Heavyweight champion!

*More boos*

Sheamus: And then Edge, I wont be telling stories. I will be listening when Irish fathers tell their children, that there was once a fiery red warrior, who in an unknown hostile land, beat three of the very loved ones, to become a 3-time World champion, and the ruler of the World.

*The boos keep coming*

Edge: You dream a lot, dont you? You see fella, beating me is no cup of tea. No jar of mayonnaise for that matter.

*Cheers for the taunt*

Edge: You see I am no John Cena crashing through a table because I lost my footing on the top rope, I am Edge and I will not bow down to a jerk like you. I will not give you my World title as easily as Cena did, you will have to fight for it. And comparing you and me, I know I can beat you in a fight.

*The crowd boos everything, not knowing what to and what not to*

Sheamus: To tell you the truth Edge, the stories have already started. You see, I beat The Undertaker twice in two matches. And beating you at Judgment Day is going to be no tough task.

Edge: Sheamus, youre forgetting something. I made a career out of beating The Undertaker. And I can make a fool out of you.

**Just Close Your Eyes**

Christian's music interrupts Edge and Captain Charisma comes out to the first major pop of the night in a checkered blue shirt and jeans. He looks down at his opponents before walking down to the ring. He gets in the ring and picks up a mic from the stool. He goes on top of the turnbuckles and poses which brings out a loud pop. Christian puts the mic to his lips and begins to speak.

Christian: I really think you two should stop rambling about who is going to walk out of Judgment Day the champion because the answer is now right in front of you. You two havent given me winning a thought and I dont blame you. Because that is something that you havent seen for two decades.

*Boos*

Christian: But, but, I made a promise when then new era in the WWE started. I made a promise to my Peeps, I made a promise to myself. You see my Peeps havent seen me win one title for 17 years and they have been patient enough for no one else would have tolerated such a failure for so many years.

*The crowd boos in disagreement*

Christian: But, I made up my mind. The Peeps have supported me for way too long for me to give them nothing before calling it quits. So this is my chance. This is my chance to realize my dreams, give the Peeps something they deserve for watching my back since I stepped foot in the WWE. And no man living on this earth can stop me from doing it in Miami inside the American Airlines Center.

*Cheers*

Christian: Edge, Sheamus, I respect you two as competitors. Youll have achieved great heights. But its time you step down and allow me to step up. And I know you arent going to do that the straight way, so at Judgment Day, I have to beat you, humiliate you and finish your reign at the top of the WWE, because next week on SmackDown!, the World Heavyweight champion will be me, Christian!!

*A Lets Go Christian! chant breaks out in the arena*

**Graveyard Symphony**

The Undertakers music hits and the arena is filled with cheers. Smoke fills the arena as Edge, Sheamus and Christian look on from the ring, their eyes wide open. A lot of time passes, but The Undertaker doesnt come out. The crowd stops cheering, Undertakers opponent become more tensed. Another minute passes, but no Undertaker. Finally, the smoke disperses and the lights become brighter, though still black. There is still no sign of The Deadman but his voice can now be heard.

Taker: You three men, at Judgment Day, you are going to be dragged to the grave. No matter what, where, how you come this Sunday, I am going to be there. And I will not let any of you walk out the champion. Because at Judgment Day, the Holy Grail comes back to where it belongs. To the grave, around my waist!

*The whole arena is stunned as the music continues to play and the arena goes pitch-dark again*

**COMMERCIAL**

**So Close Now**

Back from the break and The Usos music hits. The man in action, Jey Uso comes out with his brother and tag-team partner, Jimmy Uso. They do the Siva Tau on the stage with the crowd booing them in the background. They rush to the ring and into it and do a pose of the Anoai. They jump around the ring and Jey warms up for a big momentum-builder of a match.

**Radio**

The Broskis come out a huge pop with the tag team championship around their shoulders. Curt Hawkins, the man in action, leads the way to the ring as his partner and co-WWE Tag Team champion Zack Ryder high-fives the Broskis of the WWE Universe. They continue to play the crowd before getting in the ring. They climb the turnbuckles and pose which brings out a loud cheer. Hawkins gives his title to Ryder. Ryder and Jimmy go out of the ring.

Todd: Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time, Daniel Bryan.

*The crowd cheers as Bryan comes into view*

Todd: Daniel, what are your thoughts on tonights tag-team match?

Bryan: Hmm. Todd, I have a lot of respect for Sin Cara. Ive seen what he has done in Mexico and I know what he can do here in the WWE. And hes been given the chance. So tonight, I say we have as much as a hundred percent chance of winning. Because the team of a high-flying Lucha and a submission specialist is enough to take down to egos.

*Cheers for Bryan*

Todd: And what do you think are your chances of winning the U.S championship this Sunday?

Bryan: As I said, Sin Cara is a great partner. But, hes a better opponent. Its going to be an uphill battle to take on not one but three good opponents in the same ring at the same time. They are going to come from anywhere and everywhere and I have to be ready for it if I have to walk out the winner.

*More cheers*

Bryan: I have to keep my eyes and ears wide open if I have to become the new U.S champion, which I will. But, it will be a difficult and fun task to do. I like challenges, and this is one of the biggest Ive ever come across. But, I will walk out the champion. And I will represent my country with pride, honor and prestige.

*More cheers for Bryan as he walks off because his match is next*

**Perfection**

Dolph Zigglers music hits and he comes out to boos with his valet, Vickie Guerrero. They hug on the stage and then walk down to the ring with the crowd greeting them with boos.

He climbs the turnbuckle and poses which brings out more boos from the crowd.

**Voices**

Back from the break and Randy Ortons music hits and he comes out to a loud pop, one of the loudest of the night. He slowly and steadily walks down to the ring acknowledging the cheers he receives from the lively crowd and smirks at the booers. He climbs the steel steps and gets into the ring. He climbs the turnbuckle and poses at which the crowd starts an RKO! chant. He gets down from the top and asks for a mic.

Orton: I dont like to talk too much because I strongly believe that actions speak louder than words.

*Cheers*

Orton: So lets get to the point. You see, Cody Rhodes, that goof, is claiming to have owned me for two straight weeks. But the truth is, Cody got lucky. He got lucky because I underestimated him. Hes a great talent. But he is just forgetting that I am the man who revolutionized the principles hes living by.

*More cheers*

Orton: I can be so dangerous and unpredictable and I can be a snake who slithers into your pants and poisons your parts. And Cody thinks that he can get into my head and have me beaten mentally, but let me tell you Cody, I have a mind so sharp and so tangled, that you cant figure out how I am going to kick your ass though you know I am!

*The cheers get louder*

Orton: Cody, as I said, I believe that actions speak louder than words. So at Judgment Day, I will make my actions count. I will make you suffer for what you have done in the past few weeks. The utmost crime, you cost me the World Heavyweight championship.

*Boos for that*

Orton: And when I do that, you will be sorry for yourself. All you could do is beg for mercy and cry for pity. But I wont stop until I have my revenge. And that wont be fast. Cody, youll be sorry that you ever accepted to face me one-on-one, because you are still a lucky rat who got in because of what his father has done, and I am the Viper.

*An RKO! chant echoes around the arena*

Orton: And when all is said and done, more done that said, you will finally get back to where you belong, in your dark black mud-hole and I will be where I belong, at the top of the mountain, at the top of SmackDown!, because I am Randy Orton!

**Smoke and Mirrors**

Cody Rhodess music hits and he comes out to major heat with a black hooded jacket, refusing to show his face to the camera at the beginning. He walks down the ramp, his eyes locked on the Apex Predator as he does. He stops at the end of the ramp and asks for a mic. After receiving it, he pushes his hood back revealing the recently reconstructed visage and the foggy mask protecting it. He begins to speak.

Cody: Randy Orton. Thats what you are. And that is your biggest mistake. You think of yourself as an unbeatable, untouchable superstar. Slithery, slimy, snaky superstar who can strike his opponent in the middle of nowhere and win with the RKO, dont you?

*Boos*

Cody: Thats the reason youre so pathetic and bland. You are the same old mad guy with nothing, and I mean nothing, that intimidates his opponent. Randy Orton, you might have revolutionized being bad, but I made it look classy. Orton I am badder than you ever thought I could be. But you will realize just how bad I am when we meet in 2 days time, at Judgment Day.

*More boos*

Cody: Randy, you might be the youngest World champion. You might be my ex-mentor and you might have taught me things no one could. But you made a mistake. You made a mistake when you kicked my father in the head, you made a mistake when you kicked me out of Legacy. You made a big-bad mistake when you cost me the World Heavyweight championship.

*The crowd starts cheering Orton*

Cody: And Judgment Day is just revenge. Revenge for the sins you have committed against me. Revenge for being so bad to me. But as I said, I can be badder. I will punish you, torture you, and I will actually do things you plan to do to me. Randy, I will beat you so bad, that you will be sorry you ever came across this man, Cody Rhodes. It wont be me begging for mercy, it will be you, on your knees, touching my feet, telling me to stop the assault.

*The crowd cant stop booing*

Cody: But just when you thought I would stop, I will start punishing you again. And I will do this until my revenge is accomplished and THAT wont be fast. I wont stop beating you until I feel that you have paid the price for disrupting my beautiful visage. I wont stop until you cant move and that is when I will be satisfied.

Orton: Wait a minute Cody. Since you brought up satisfaction, I was satisfied when I kicked you and Ted DiBiase out of Legacy. Because my purpose was fulfilled. All I had to prove was that I am nothing like my father, and he has no influence on my career whatsoever. All I had to prove was that you, especially, were just here because your last name is Rhodes.

*Cheers for the Viper*

Cody: Hmm. Rhodes, Rhodes. Hahahaha. Rhodes is just a gift I received for being so talented and so unique. I am not that stereotypical heel like you whos full of drool and who cant set his mind straight. I am unique because I have a different agenda.

*More boos for Cody*

Cody: And to tell you the truth, I am nothing like my father. My father is a big, fat waste of space. He is a stain to the Rhodes family name. And I actually rebuilt the name after he crapped on it after coming to the WWE. I am more talented, successful and awesome than my father could ever be.

*The boos keep coming*

Cody: And besides, I am not an American Dream. I am a Vipers Nightmare! Hahahaha.

*Cody drops the mic and continues his maniacal laughter as we go to a commercial*

He stops at the end of the ramp to take a look at the others and then climbs the steps. He gets in the ring and takes off his coat. He takes off his hat and rolls his eyes back as the lights go bright.

GLOBAL ICON · Feb 1, 2012

The camera pans around the WWEs exclusive studio in Miami, Florida where a full-house of 2,500 people are in attendance for the debut episode of the Saturday Night Verdict with Michael Cole on USA Network. Michael Cole sits atop the stage on a chair, a table separating the other one for the guest, a WWE legend. We turn to Michael Cole in close-up as the fans get ready for the history-making moment.

Cole: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the first-ever episode of the Saturday Night Verdict and Im your host Michael Cole and we are live just 24 hours away from Judgment Day, in the city that will host the pay-per-view, Miami, Florida.

*Cheers from the studio audience*

Cole: Tonight, two-thousand five-hundred members of the WWE Universe have aligned in the WWEs exclusive Miami studio to witness history being made. Tonight, we are being viewed in over 30 countries around the world because of what the WWE is, a global phenomenon and I, the Voice of the WWE, Michael Cole, am going to interview a WWE legend on his predictions on the four huge Judgment Day main-events.

*More cheers*

Cole: Without wasting any more time, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together and applaud for one of the best in the business, the most badass man to step foot in this company, a WWE Hall of Famer, the one and only Texas Rattlesnake, STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!!!!

**Glass Shatters**

The crowd goes wild in excitement as Vince McMahons worst nightmare, Stone Cold Steve Austin steps foot in the Miami studio through the curtains and raises his arms. The crowd continues to chant his name as he smiles at them and then at Cole. He stops for a second or two to hear the faint boos of the people who expected to see somebody else, another name for a stone and then proceeds to greet Cole who stretches out his hand. They shake hands.

Cole: Welcome to the show Austin.

Austin: Thank you Cole.

*Both men take their seats on opposite ends of the table*

Cole: Austin, thank you for joining us here tonight, on the first-ever edition of the Saturday Night Verdict.

Austin: Youre welcome, Cole. Youre welcome.

*The crowd starts a Please Stun Michael chant*

Austin: Theyre pretty lively.

Cole: Sure they are. Now, Austin, before we can start, we have got a clip showing the highlights of a career. Roll it please.

[YOUTUBE]1zOGUGiPZz0[/YOUTUBE]

Cole: How do you feel on being the first-ever guest on the Saturday Night Verdict with me, Michael Cole?

Austin: To be with you is a real test of endurance and ignoring skills but other than that, Im pretty happy. You know, when I got a call from the head-office asking me if I would show up here tonight, I asked them why would I? And they told me that I could do anything I wanted, and that included kicking your ass!

*The crowd lets out another roar of cheers as Michael Cole listens patiently*

Austin: So if anybody wants to see Michael Cole get his later tonight, give me a hell yeah!

Crowd: Hell yeah!

Austin: I cant hear you! I said give me a hell yeah!

Crowd: HELL YEAH!

Austin: Thats like it.

Cole: Now, now, now. Austin, cool it down. You are here to answer my questions, and here is the first one. Austin, now, you became what you are, who you are, in a time we call the Attitude Era. When the WWE was fighting WCW in the Monday Night Wars. You gave Vince McMahon a hell of a time and you played an instrumental role in the WWE ripping apart WCW back in the day. Fast forward to today, we are living in the PG era. And one of the biggest changes in the history of this pro-wrestling industry took place a little over two months ago, when Vince McMahon handed over his company, to his nephew, Michael Cooper. Your thoughts on that.

Austin: Hmm. Youre right. The Wars. They were the hardest times we couldve ever gone through. We were on the verge of getting bought by WCW. But thats, thats the time I consider my best. I could do what I wanted to do on global television. I could swear, I could shed blood, it didnt matter. What mattered were ratings and I was giving Vince just that.

*Another chant for Austin goes up*

Austin: Now, thats the time where I got to know Vince so well. And I can tell you that he was a great visionary. I mean its pretty obvious, right? He took a company, a business, an industry that was lying low. Something nobody wanted to see, something that was considered a crime. He took that industry and made it into, as you said, a global phenomenon that it is today.

*A cheer for Vince McMahon*

Austin: WWE is not just a pro-wrestling company where guys like to bash up each-other for every small thing that happens, its a mainstream wrestling-entertainment program that over seventy percent of the world follows. And follows religiously. And all this is just because of one man and one man only. Vincent Kennedy McMahon. You know, he can a be a son of a bitch. Hes that evil, annoying boss who you just want to beat up every day and I did.

*More cheers*

Austin: But, at the same time, the guy has guts. He doesnt move a muscle in the ring but he can tell monsters to shut up and if they dont act according to him, hes got the balls to tell them that theyre fired and then get beat up. And he is a great visionary. He might do some things the wrong way, but he does that for his company and the people that support his company. And I thought he was guy who would never, ever retire until he breathed his last breath and when he handed over the company to Mike Cooper, it surprised me a hell lot.

*The crowd and Cole listen on intently*

Austin: But what Cooper has done in these early two months of his career, has impressed me. He hasnt done something out of the world, but at the same time he has done nothing to humiliate the company or for the world to doubt its presence in the world. Its still early to comment on his leadership abilities but I can tell you from what I have seen in these two months, that he could be a great leader.

*Cheers for Mike Cooper*
Austin: And I am looking forward to his reign as the CEO of the WWE and I hope he does something not even Vince could do.

Cole: With that being said, lets move on to the first main-event of the second PPV produced under Mike Cooper, Judgment Day. And that match is the No Holds Barred match between two of your most decorated rivals, Chris Jericho and Triple H. What is your say on the match and how does this Bret Hart factor play a part in it?

Austin: No Holds Barred. I just love those kind of matches where the ref cant do a damn about what you do to your opponent. I just love that atmosphere, the rage, the blood, the pain and everything between the opening bell and the closing one. And with those two men in it, it just gets that much more entertaining.

*The cheers keep coming*

Austin: One of them, Chris Jericho. As you said, hes one of the most decorated stars in the WWE. He keeps saying it all the time. Hes a nine-time Intercontinental champion. Hes the first-ever Undisputed WWE champion and he beat The Rock and me in the same night to do that.

*Boos for Jerichos praise*

Austin: I mean, hes, hes come a long way from being the long-haired joker to the talented and unmatched legend that he is. Ive seen him grow in front of my eyes. I was there when the clock started ticking. The clock to the millennium. I was there when Jericho interrupted The Rock on his first night in the WWE and what I saw then, told me that he was going to be one of the most successful people in the whole industry.

*More boos for Jericho*

Austin: Hes struggled a lot and that gives him the right to be better than the others. Hes pushed away boulders like Rock and me and Triple H when we were in the prime of our careers. He was that little rat who couldnt hurt you physically, but could race you, crawl and scratch and move ahead of you in the nick of time. And he managed to do that. Ive got to give him credit for that. But just when you thought, all that struggle, all those grueling matches, those historic moments, made him tough and likeable, he crapped on all that.

*A Y2Sucks! chant goes off in the studio*

Austin: He started coming out wearing suits and calling people parasites and shooting you with long, meaningless sentences and made all of his successes irrelevant. He just proved how good a scumbag he could be. He just proved that he didnt have the guts to back-up his tough talk in the ring though he is one of the most talented superstars in the WWE right now.

*Austin pauses for a second*

Austin: And on the other hand, there is Triple H. That guy. The mad guy. You know, he too grew up in front of my eyes. From the Blue Blood to the Game, he has come a long-long way since he made his debut. He was that annoying son of a gun who enjoyed inflicting pain on his opponents, and I can tell you that because I have been one of his greatest rivals. Hes got hands and power in them like no one else. He wont think a split second before crushing you under his sledgehammer.

*Cheers at the mention of the sledgehammer*

Austin: And that gives him the edge in the kind of match he will be participating in less than 24 hours from now, especially against Jericho. Hunter, I know, wont go soft on Jericho after all those things he said. I mean, nobody can take insults to their wives. Yeah, I know, Hunter married Stephanie and he became more successful and all that crap but he is Triple H, The Game, The King of Kings, the 13-time World champion, all because of himself!

*Cheers for Triple H*

Austin: And, umm, the Bret Hart factor. It of course brings excitement to the match. Because that is what Bret is all about, excitement. The Best There Is, The Best There Was and The Best There Ever Will Be, Hart is truly a deciding factor in the match and as far as I know, he is going to be in Hunters corner. And that my friend, just throws the point-five percent chance that Jericho had in the match, out of the window.

*More cheers*

Austin: So my pick, is The Game, Triple H.

Cole: Speaking of The Game, ladies and gentlemen, it is a pleasure to announce that the WWE has roped in British band Motorhead to play Triple Hs theme The Game live in the American Airlines Center, at Judgment Day. Now lets take you back to the past, where Stone Cold Steve Austin took on Chris Jerichos opponent for tomorrow night, Triple H at the Survivor Series pay-per-view in 2000 in a No D.Q match. Take a look.

[YOUTUBE]2d_fIg7A7qE[/YOUTUBE]

**COMMERCIAL**

Cole: Ladies and gentlemen, we are back from the break on the first-ever episode of the Saturday Night Verdict with Michael Cole and our guest is WWE Hall Of Famer, Stone Cold Steve Austin!

*The crowd cheers as Austin comes into view*

Cole: Austin, with you placing your bet on the No Holds Barred match, its time to move on to the next main-event, the World Heavyweight championship match. For the second straight PPV, the World title is being defended in a multiple man match, this time four of them competing for it, Sheamus, Christian, The Undertaker and Edge. With each man having only twenty-five percent chance of winning, who do you see walking out with the gold?

Austin: First off all, this is going to be a hell of a match because as we all know, these men can do anything to get the title. You know what, Edge, weve got to give him credit. In the mid-90s and the early 2000s, Edge was just another superstar. But one win, one Money In The Bank victory changed his career for ever.

Cole: Yeah, it did. Certainly. He beat John Cena at New Years Revolution back in 2006 and has won 10 more championships taking his tally to 11.

Austin: Yeah. Hes made a great use of the opportunity that was given to him and he has had a good run with the ball. He didnt screw it up like the many others who came before him. Hes proven himself Hall of Famer worthy in these past few years. And Ill be a happy man to welcome him alongside me whenever he gets inducted. Because he deserves it.

Cole: He does certainly.

Austin: And you know why he deserves it the most? Because not only has he brought success for himself, but also for the washed-up B-grade brand that WAS SmackDown! before he went there. He went to Friday Nights, feuded with Undertaker and Batista and Mysterio and countless others and he made the show interesting again. Two weeks ago, when he said that The Rock just made the brand but he is the one who carried it, he is nothing but true.

*A little jeer for praising Edge*

Austin: And I know that when he says can do anything to keep the championship, he means it. Hes not your good guy with the right principles. Hes the bad guy with the wrong motives. I can see it in his eyes. He lives for the championship and he can die for it. No wait, he can kill anyone for it. He aint afraid of anyone and I know that he has a very good chance of keeping that title just because he is Edge.

*A Edge Sucks! chant is begun by the crowd*

Austin: On the other hand, youve got Sheamus. That pale, intimidating monster of a man. Hes got that height, that built and he can just make an example out of you. Ive seen him end careers with his two bare hands and hes nothing short of a mad guy with an AK-47. Hes done it before. He has won two championships and hes beaten John Cena for it in his career of not more than two and a half years. And thats a hell of an achievement.

Cole: Hmm-hmm.

Austin: Hes got that brute force and raw, unadulterated power that gives him the extra edge over his opponents. He wont think twice before running you down and Ive seen him do it to many people before. And you know what, those victories hes getting against The Undertaker

Cole: he beat him twice in as many matches.

Austin: Yeah, those straight victories over Undertaker is adding nothing but confidence to an already obsessed man. Hes an Irish train right now. And its, its pretty impossible to stop it. I mean, if a guy can beat Undertaker twice, he can surely win the World Heavyweight championship with momentum and stamina on his side, because hes the youngest and perhaps the fittest than the other three.

Cole: Indeed. And what about Christian? Hes not won a World title in nearly two decades and he calls this his best chance?

Austin: Why not. It well maybe. You know, hes never been so fired up before. I can feel the frustration and pain and anger in his promos and in his matches. He just is dying to reach to the top and Edges success, its adding fuel to the fire. So, you know, that could well be the deciding factor of the match. Or the pressure hes putting on himself might just lead him to getting nothing.

Cole: And Undertaker?

Austin: That freak. I give him credit for sticking there so long and still being at the top of his game. Hes still that scary freak. Hes goddamn intimidating. Ive taken him on before. And he is the only superstar to give me Goosebumps. Standing in front of you, is a tall, menacing figure wearing black all over his body. And when he rolls his eyes in the back of his head and when he sticks his tongue out at you, you know youre in for a hell ride.

*The crowd cheers for Taker*

Austin: But, but, kudos to Sheamus. Hes never let Undertaker get into his head and I salute him for that because that is a tough task. And that is why, because he is so strong mentally and physically, I will just lean towards Sheamus and I say that Sheamus will walk out with the World title around his waist.

*Boos for The Celtic Warrior*

GLOBAL ICON · Feb 1, 2012

Cole: Right. So now, Austin, we have a special surprise for you. A surprise we call the Q and A Round. We have selected four individuals from around the world who would like you to ask a few questions and you will have to willingly answer them.

Austin: So youve selected them randomly?

Cole: Weve selected the ones who posed the most innovate questions. Those four individuals will be talking to you live right now.

Austin: Bring it on baby.

Cole: Alright, so, the first person who would love to ask you a question is Philip George from our very own, Miami, Florida. So Philip, bring it on.

*The camera cuts to a minitron on the opposite end of the stage where a young guy in his late-teens wearing a black 3:16 t-shirt and specs stands in his front lawn*
Austin: How are you Philip?

Philip: Im good, thank you. Stone Cold, umm, the question I have for you, is, umm, well First off all, let me tell you, you are my favorite all-time superstar. With that being said, my question to you is, umm, will you come back for one last run in the WWE?

Austin: Hahahaha. I respect your question. Many people have asked this before and many are still. But Ive, Ive got just one answer and one answer only. You see, when I was in the WWE I worked my ass like no one else. In the process, I, I had some injuries. Some that threatened my career. You know, my knee, my neck they hurt a lot. I still am sore when I get up in the morning. So theres absolutely zero chance of me working a full-time WWE schedule for even a few months.

*Philip looks on intently as Austin speaks*

Austin: So, uh, sorry Phil. I wouldnt ever get into that ring even for one last match.

Philip: Thank you sir. Thanks a lot.

*The camera zooms out of Philips lawn and straight to Michael Coles face*

Cole: Thank you Philip. Now, our next participant in the Q and A Round is, Peter Williams. And hes coming straight from Montreal, Canada.

*The camera cuts back to the minitron where Peter Williams, a stout, chubby teen sits on his sofa*

Peter: Hello Mister Austin. How are you doing?

Austin: I was fine until now.

*Cole lets out a small laugh*

Austin: How much do you Williams?

Peter: Umm, about one-fifty pounds?

Austin: Hahahaha. Shoot your question young man.

Peter: Ive got a very simple question for you. Now before I shoot it to you, let me get one point across. I tune in to Monday Night RAW every week and Michael Cole never quite shuts up even after Jerry Lawler pleads him to. He keeps distracting me during great matches. So my question to you is, does Michael Cole annoy you?

Austin: He does annoy me. He annoys me a lot. He keeps saying the longest running weekly episodic television show in history. Cole, we know what RAW is. Its great. Dont make it poor. Stop your bitching and whining at every damn moment and stop burying the faces and making the heels irritating. Just do what youre there for. Just call the goddamn matches.

Peter: Mister Austin, can you shut him up tonight?

Austin: Oh very well. But Ill do it when the time comes.

Cole: Thank you fatty. Next question please.

Austin: You got owned Cole.

Cole: Alright, alright. Next, we have a female for the first time on the Q and A Round. Her name is Margaret Watts and she comes from Washington D.C, which by the way is the host city for the next WWE pay-per-view, The Great American Bash. Over to Watts.

*The camera switches to the tron where a young woman in her mid-twenties stands with a guy almost her age and height in their living room*

Margaret: Hello gentlemen. This is Margaret Watts and he is my boyfriend, David Peterson.

Austin: What are you a news reporter?

Margaret: No, umm, I am a fifth grade science teacher.

Austin: Oh. Oh.

Margaret: Mister Austin, you are known for your rivalry with Vince McMahon in the years gone by. But, one of your greatest rivals, was The Rock. Now, few years later, both of you are actors in Hollywood. Do you feel any type of competition between you and Rock?

Austin: What?

*The studio audience lets out a cheer for the catchphrase*

Austin: I mean no. Yeah we were rivals in the WWE. But thats just limited there. Now, we are actors of two different routes. Hes doing G.I.Joe and Fast Five and all that and I am content with working with some of the best action heroes Hollywood has to offer. Sylvester Stallone, anybody?

*The couple from D.C look on*

Austin: So, no. At least I dont feel any competition between me and Rock. Im having my successes and hes having his and Im happy for him. Hes doing well.

Cole: Good answer there. Thank you Margaret and David for joining us and now, the fourth and final participant on the Q and A Round, all the way from Sydney, Australia, Richard West.

*Back to the tron and a guy in his thirties in a SCSA t-shirt sits in his living room couch*

Richard: Hello.

Austin/Cole (together): Hello.

Richard: Mate, I am just curious about this, and this is pure fantasy: IF you ever return to the WWE for one match, which of the current superstars would you like to face and why?

Austin: Well, that is certainly not going to happen. But since you say its fantasy I wont disappoint you. If I ever have to face a current WWE superstar, I would like to face Alberto Del Rio. Why. Because he thinks he can buy the world with his money. He thinks he is the best because he is rich. But he is not. I can still show up and beat the crap out of his ass and leave him for dead. I would certainly like to knock some sense into the guy.

Richard: Thanks mate. Goodbye.

Cole: Goodbye. That was, ladies and gentlemen, the end of the first-ever Q and A Round of the Saturday Night Verdict with me, Michael Cole. And on that note, well take a short break.

*The camera zooms out of Coles face and we go to a commercial*

Cole: Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the debut episode of the Saturday Night Verdict with Michael Cole and we are live from Miami, Florida and sitting with us is the former 5-time WWE champion, Stone Cold Steve Austin.

*The crowd lets out a cheers as Steve Austin comes in the cameras view*

Cole: Speaking of WWE champions, tomorrow night on Judgment Day, the former 7-time WWE champion John Cena will take on CM Punk with the Best In The World moniker hanging in the balance. Who do you think will win this epic battle between the two mega-stars?

Austin: Who will win? I dont know. And to be honest, it doesnt matter who wins.

*Die-hard Rock fans boo for using his catchphrase, though accidentally*

Austin: You see CM Punk, he was a kid when I first saw him. He was a kid in Ring Of Honor. When I went to one of their shows, this guy comes out with piercings all over his body and I thought he was the typical new age guy who just wants to show-off and not grow in the ring. But when he hit the ring, and when he actually wrestled, I knew he was a star in the making.

*Cheers for Punk*

Austin: And then, Paul Heyman picked him up and sent him to ECW. And that was the beginning of superstardom for Punk. When he came to the WWE, there was no turning back. He knew he had to go in only one direction, to the top, and that he did. He maybe a pain in the ass backstage, but in front of the WWE Universe, every week live on RAW, he is a solid performer. He is not just a professional in this industry, he bleeds wrestling.

*More cheers for Austin and Punk*

Austin: He can talk, he can walk, he can wrestle, he can even do commentary, and he does not suck at one of these. He does everything very well. Hes a nice blend of entertainment and wrestling and that is what the people of this day and generation look forward to. A nice and entertaining wrestling match and I can tell you from what I have seen, Punk gives a 5-star match every week, on purpose.

*A loud CM Punk! chant goes off*

Austin: But he is a man who isnt afraid to tell you what he thinks you are. And that further makes him edgy in my opinion and I like that because that is what I was in my career, in my glory days. Thats what made who I am, Stone Cold Steve Austin and that is what is going to make Punk, the CM Punk.

Cole: Well, yeah.

Austin: And on the other hand, we have John Cena. The man. The top dog. The guy who is on top of the food chain, on top of the mountain, on top of the company which is on top of the professional wrestling world. One of the most controversial and decorated superstars in the history of the WWE. And I credit him for that. Because the whole world knows hes got a hell lot of a heart and hes proven it time and time again.

*The kids start cheering for Cena*

Austin: When he came to the WWE, 2002, he was just another rapper with some if not no wrestling skills. And there were many, and I mean many who were better than him. But he and not they are now on every show the WWE produces because he worked hard for that. He was ready to bust his ass for Vince McMahon and company not to make himself the top guy, but to make the WWE a better product. And he paid for his work.

*A Lets Go Cena! chant breaks out*

Austin: I say it again, the guy is not a Bret Hart nor is he a Shawn Michaels in terms of skills inside the ring, but hes better than anyone who has stepped foot in the ring in terms of being loyal, trustworthy, hard-working and profitable. Because its no secret. The man has given the WWE income more than what they have expected from a single individual. And John Cena does it for the people! For you people!

*The chants continue to grow louder and louder*

Austin: He is on every damn RAW and every damn live show and every damn world tour and he interacts with every fan that he has. He is the highest wish donor in the Make-A-Wish Foundation and he is an active supporter of the B.A.Star Campaign. And he is the first crush of many girls around the world.

*A little laugh goes off in the crowd*

Austin: And the thing I respect him the most for, is that he replaced me, Steve Austin, as the face of the WWE and he has done it all so well.

*A Cena Sucks! chant breaks out to counter the original chants and the signature chants are sounded*

Austin: No he doesnt people. Outta give him some respect. He has done it all in just a decade of his career. And he has many more years to go. With all those points noted down, my point is proved. It doesnt matter who wins tomorrow night because whoever does, its going to be a profit for the industry, the business, the WWE and its Universe. Thats all I have to say.

Cole: Very well said. As Austin said people, John Cena is one of the most controversial and decorated champions in the history of the WWE. He has won 2 United States championships, 7 WWE championships and 2 World Heavyweight championships among the singles titles that he has won. Tonight, we take you back in time, where John Cena won his second World Heavyweight championship in a very auspicious night. The 25th anniversary of WrestleMania where John Cena took on Big Show and then World Heavyweight champion Edge in a triple threat match. Take a look.

**COMMERCIAL**
Cole: Ladies and gentlemen welcome back to the first-ever episode of the Saturday Night Verdict and I am your host Michael Cole, the voice of the WWE, and alongside me is the Hall Of Famer, the most badass man to step foot in the WWE, Stone Cold Steve Austin.

Austin: Welcome back Cole.

Cole: Now Austin, before we can move on to the final main-event of Judgment Day, I want to ask you, what do you make of the Kane situation?

Austin: I dont make head and tail, I can tell you that.

Cole: Yeah, but, what are your views as to where the situation is going? I mean, Kane has gone completely mad in the past couple of weeks.

Austin: As I said, its very difficult to figure out. You see Kane attacking people, and random people backstage, destroying the set, destroying the equipments is not what I have seen before. And its a very bad and strange-strange sight. He is pissed off all the time, but what I see on his face, is a look of desperation and frustration.

*It appears that the crowd agrees*

Austin: Somewhere deep down inside, something is not right with him. Something is troubling him and you can see it in his eyes. And the one thing I noticed, is he is showing pity and mercy for the others. And that is NOT what I expect to see from a monster, a Big Red Monster. Kane was there for nearly my entire career, and I have seen a side of him I have never seen before. A side that forgives a lot. I havent even seen him Chokeslam anybody ever since hes gone berserk.

*The crowd still cant do nothing but agree*

Austin: Whatever it is, it is a bad, disturbing, annoying and rather irritating scene and state of Kane. And although it is all that, it is quite interesting and I am dying to see where this leads to. Certainly something good.
Cole: With that being said, we move on to the final main-event of Judgment Day. Tomorrow night, two of the youngest and fastest rising stars in the WWE, John Morrison and The Miz will compete in a rematch from Backlash, for the coveted and most sort-after prize in sports, entertainment and pro-wrestling, the WWE championship. Austin, though the winner is obvious in this, which is The Miz, since this is your final prediction, just make sure you say everything that you want to.

Austin: The winner is The Miz? Really? Really? The Miz? Really?

*The crowd cheers at the mocking*

Cole: Yeah, The Miz.

Austin: WHAT! I didnt hear you right. WHAT!

*More cheers for Austin*

Austin: Cole, even you know down in your heart that The Miz is no competition for Morrison. Miz has come a long way since hosting a diva search, Ill give you that, but, he is far from being the guy who carries the company and the championship on his shoulders. He is by no means the top guy of the WWE.

Cole: That is not true.

Austin: That is the truth, Cole. And though you might not want to accept it, you have to because that is in plain sight. Everybody knows Morrison can own Miz in the ring on any given night and we are talking about the WWE championship being on the line. And there is no way, no way in hell, that Miz can out-perform Morrison on a stage where nothing else matters. All that matters is the WWE championship, and I can see that Morrison wants it more bad than Miz and I know he can do anything to keep it.

Cole: He can do anything to keep it. Youre right. But whatever he does, is not enough to stop The Miz. And you have got to admit it, The Miz is one of the most-improved and most must-see superstars in the WWE and Morrison, is just floating garbage. Hes a spot monkey.

Austin: Miz is one of the most-improved superstar. I cant deny that. But, most must-see? I dont give a crap about that. Because Miz says it every week and that just shows how desperate he is to prove it when he is not. And Im telling you he will fail miserably when he gets into that ring with Morrison.

*The crowd is loving the back-and-forth*

Austin: And John Morrison a spot-monkey? He is one of the most talented and exciting wrestlers I have seen in a long-long time. He is by no means a spot monkey. He is entertaining and at the same time he is capable of handling the pressure of being WWE champion.

Cole: What? Are you serious? The Miz is the new face of the WWE. He is on every television show there is. MTV, TMZ, late night shows and he is the true man who can carry this company on his shoulders.

Austin: You know what. Thats the difference between Miz and Morrison. Miz is a reality T.V jerk while John Morrison is a true performer in every sense. He is a true athlete and he had devoted his time and work for the WWE and his fans. And hes getting paid for what he has done. He is the WWE champion and I believe, I strongly believe that he is going to keep it that way even after Judgment Day.

*The crowd cheers for Morrison*

Austin: Miz got lucky to have one more shot at the gold but he wont be as lucky when he steps foot in the ring with Morrison. He wont be so lucky when Morrison pins him 1-2-3 and he does it clean. He wont be lucky when he will be down and out in the middle of the ring staring at Morrison who will be holding the WWE title. And thats the bottom-line cause Stone Cold said so.

*The crowd pops huge for that statement*

Cole: You may say what you want but the truth is, Miz is better than Morrison and he can and he will beat him at Judgment Day. And the next night on RAW, The Miz will come out with the WWE championship around his shoulders, proving that he is indeed the most must-see WWE champion in the history of the company.

Austin: Cole, I cant argue any more. You will be on that announce booth during Judgment Day and I request you to watch the match carefully and see what my boy does to your boy.

Cole: That will be seen Austin. Anyways, to leave on a high-note, ladies and gentlemen, it was a pleasure to be here in Florida and I hope you will all order and enjoy WWE Judgment Day. We will return next month, live from our studio in the nations capital Washington D.C bringing you our predictions on the next pay-per-view, The Great American Bash. And for the final time, ladies and gentlemen, put your hands together for Stone Cold

Austin: wait a minute Cole. The partys not yet over. Bring the beer.

*Austin raises his arms and two beer cans are thrown at him*

He busts the cans open and pours the beer in his mouth, some of it falling on his t-shirt. He asks for two more cans and receives them. He gives one to Cole and tells him to open it. Cole does and before he can drink it, Austin sticks up his middle finger at Cole and kicks him in the gut and nails him with the Stunner!!!! The crowd goes mad for that as Cole falls off the stage and into the hands of some crew members. Austin laughs about it before he continues celebrating. He asks the crew to hand some cans to the audience. Austin goes over to the table and stands on it as the crowd continues to cheer him. He strikes his pose one final time as the camera zooms out.

Jam's Review

Saturday Night Verdict

Here's the first episode of the Verdict and I honestly don't know how I feel about this. It seems like a good concept but it's just talking and going back to some highlights from the past, kinda like Sunday Night Heat.

There were some things said by Austin that I think he'd never say. So some improved promo writing would be nice. I don't think Austin would have praised the guys on here as much as he did, that threw me way off. However, Austin being the first guest on the show probably helps here because he's a big star.

My favorite part was the Q&A portion with the WWE Universe. I feel like the questions asked were answered too soon. We never know, maybe you could somehow use Austin later on in the future. And Austin wants to face Del Rio? Really? Looks like someone is getting a push.

Typical way to end things: A stunner and beer, yeah!

Overall, I like your concept but there's just something that is missing from this episode. When you figure out what that is, this show will be awesome, so yeah. Can't wait to read Judgment Day GI.
