WWE:TheCult's Way

[The Cult]

Monday, 7th May, 2012 | Greensboro Coliseum Complex, Greensboro, North Carolina​

RAW kicks off with a video package highlighting the altercation between John Cena and Triple H last week, the shows Dylan Kelly and Triple H arguing for Cena bounded through the crowd to the ring. The video ends with Kelly announcing the match for Judgement Day, John Cena vs. Triple H…No Disqualification Match! After the video ends the usual RAW intro video airs and we enter the arena and see the pyro is exploding on the stage. The crowd are ecstatic and are looking forward to tonight’s event, some notable crowd signs are spotted by the camera such as ‘Barrett Tapped’ and ‘Kelly fears Cena’. Jerry Lawler has still not returned so we are greeted by Josh Matthews and Matt Striker, they speak about the huge announcement last week and inform us that Triple H wants to get back in shape for the big match and he will be in action later on tonight before the pair can continue Dylan Kelly comes waltzing out from the back and the crowd don’t like it, they jeer him ferociously. Kelly doesn’t seem to care as he enters the ring in his smart suit with his smile gleaming across his face.

Just as Kelly goes to speak the crowd begin to boo again, they’re not letting Kelly get a word in here tonight. Eventually Kelly begins to speak barely being heard due to the loudness of the crowd. Kelly says that it is a beautiful day; he says he feels happy and he knows the crowd can see it. Kelly says that in 3 weeks he gets what he wants either way, he says that if John Cena wins he gets to fire Triple H and Stephanie McMahon and he gets to show John up in a match just like he did to his Father. On the other hand if Triple H wins he gets to take John Cena to court and gain a whole lot of money. Kelly with the crowd on his back even more now sarcastically says that he understands the dilemma they have; he knows that they really hate him and they want John Cena to get his hands on him but the people love Triple H and want him to keep his job.

*ALL GROWN UP*​

Some members of the crowd look onto the stage puzzled however that soon turns into loud cheering as Stephanie McMahon emerges from the back wearing a suave looking business suit. She doesn’t look happy as she eyeballs Kelly on her way down to the ring, Kelly on the other hand has a smug look on his face as he mockingly places one foot on the bottom rope and lifts up the middle rope to let Stephanie enter the ring, she isn’t impressed. After she enters the ring she takes a microphone of her own. Before she speaks Kelly interrupts and says what an honour it is to have her here and before he goes onto continue Stephanie slaps him across the face to the delight of the crowd. She is clearly unhappy about the predicament that she and her husband have been put in; she calls Kelly a horrible, sad little man who gets joy out of making people’s lives a misery. Kelly cuts her off abruptly and says that is exactly what her daddy Vince McMahon used to do so before she makes accusations at him she should get her facts right. Stephanie says that at least her father didn’t assault a senior citizen because he was too scared of their son. Stephanie says that she wants Cena to get his hands on Kelly so bad but she and her husband love this business too much, she knows Cena will give his all but her husband is The Game, The King Of Kings and The Cerebral Assassin and he will get the job done. Kelly says he likes her fighting spirit and that he will be paying close attention come Judgement Day but shouldn’t Stephanie be wary of what Cena is capable of doing to her beloved Triple H. He says he has no preference of winner but he knows Triple H needs to be ready, he tells her that her husband’s opponent tonight is Big Show. Stephanie isn’t worried but tells Kelly he should be as John Cena might be here tonight. Kelly’s face quickly turns into a sour scowl as Stephanie’s music hits and she exits the ring. Matthews and Striker begin to debate the idea that John Cena could be here tonight and they talk about how Big Show is an angry giant after Backlash. The screen fades to commercial with Kelly in the ring looking far from impressed.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

We are back live on Monday Night RAW; the camera shows the outside of the arena as Matthews and Striker inform us where RAW is emanating from here tonight. They reiterate that tonight’s main event is Triple H taking on Big Show before they are interrupted by AW who is out on the stage alongside Mark Henry and Titus O’Neill. AW introduces one half of the soon to be Tag Team Champions and a man who tonight will show R-Truth how to get it done in the ring, that man is Darren Young!

*MOVE (GET IT IN)*​

Young comes bursting out onto the stage to a few boos from the crowd, he is given a warm welcome by his team mate Titus O’Neill and AW but Mark Henry doesn’t acknowledge him. The four men then walk down to the ring with Henry walking behind the three foreman of the group. Young then enters the ring and poses on the top turnbuckle before standing in the centre of the ring with his eyes fixated on the stage.

*WHAT’S UP?*​

R-Truth then cautiously walks out onto the stage to the cheers of the crowd, Truth appears to be alone, well actually he’s with Little Jimmy with whom he does his handshake with before bouncing down to the ring. Truth holds the bottom rope open for Jimmy before Young attacks him from behind, clearly unimpressed with Truth’s shenanigans.

Match One
Darren Young vs. R-Truth​

The referee calls for the match to start as Darren Young stomps on Truth who is down in the corner of the ring. Young rags Truth to his feet by his hair and begins talking trash before Truth nails him with a sweet right hand, he doesn’t stop there as he keeps them coming before eventually whipping Young into the corner. Truth charges towards him and nails a clothesline sending Young’s head snapping back onto the turnbuckle. Truth whips him to the ropes and then hits him with a backdrop as he rebounds towards him. He goes for a quick cover. 1…2…Young gets his shoulder up.

Truth quickly brings Young to his feet and whips him to the ropes, his clothesline attempt is proved futile as Young ducks under his swinging arm and locks his arms around Truth’s waist before charging into the turnbuckle sending Truth face first into it. Young then begins to crash his shoulder into Truth’s stomach; his yelps of pain can be heard by the camera just over AW shouting words of encouragement to Young. Darren then lifts Truth onto his shoulders before turning around and dropping him with a spine tingling powerslam. He makes a cover. 1…2…NO! Truth just stays alive.

Darren wastes little time and delivers a swift elbow drop to Truth before repeating the act once more. He then poses to the crowd before leaping from the ground and…NO Truth moves out of the way sending Young’s elbow crashing into the mat. Both men get to their feet and Truth clobbers him right in the jaw before hitting a clothesline. Young quickly gets back to his feet and eats another clothesline for his troubles. Again Young is up fast but Truth hits a dropkick showing off his athletic prowess. Young gets to his feet and Truth is waiting…What’s Up! Truth hits his finisher and makes a cover much to AW’s dismay.1…2…3!

Winner: R-Truth via Pinfall.

Truth is left with little time to celebrate his victory as Titus O’Neill enters the ring and blindsides him. O’Neill hammers away at Truth but is caught off guard…

*SOS*​

The distraction of Kofi Kingston’s music gives Truth a lifeline and he scatters under the bottom rope before heading to the stage where Kofi emerges microphone in hand. AW and Mark Henry have now joined O’Neill and Young in the ring, Young has now got to his feet. Kofi begins to speak, he tells them that he and Truth are sick of AW, they’re sick of them having a numbers advantage on them so tonight they’re here to put that advantage to an end as Kofi says he has enlisted help.

*BORN TO WIN*​

The crowd are extremely pleased to see Evan Bourne, Kofi’s former tag team partner emerge onto the stage and stand alongside him and Truth. Kofi then seems to have a huge grin on his face as he tells AW that they also got themselves a ‘representative’ Kofi turns side on and points to the entrance.

Can You Dig It Suckaaaaaa?
*Rap Sheet*​

The crowd can’t believe it and neither can AW and his entourage on the ring, Booker high fives Kofi before the four men charge down to the ring much to the crowds delight. AW quickly scatters out leaving Kofi and his men at a man advantage, they clobber away at the three men in the ring before Booker hits a superkick to Mark Henry’s jaw. He hits the mat and rolls out of the ring still nursing his jaw. Meanwhile Evan Bourne jumps high and hits a knee to Darren Young’s jaw but he quickly gets out of dodge rolling to the outside. Booker hits another kick to Titus and motions to the top rope for Evan Bourne. Bourne climbs the top and just as he goes to leap Henry pulls Titus under the bottom rope to safety. AW’s men all back up the ramp as Booker T’s theme plays in the background. Booker plays up to the crowd and motions for a 4 man spinaroonie! All four men then get on one knee and in unison each does a spinaroonie. Matt Striker is full of joy for the returning Booker at ringside and we see his face once more before we fade off screen.

As we fade off screen we come to another vignette hyping up Bray Wyatt, the clearly deranged man talks about his people, “My people, they make me what you see before yourselves here today man. The love we share is unrivalled and unmatched man.” Wyatt continues on his speech before the video ends with him placing his hat on his head. We then cut back to ringside.

Josh Matthews and Matt Striker then hype up tonight’s main event between Triple H and The Big Show, they say the stakes at Judgement Day are higher than they’ve ever been for The Game and he needs to be ready as John Cena will go through anything and anyone to get to Dylan Kelly. They inform us that John Cena isn’t here tonight as he is checking on his Father in hospital back in his hometown. The pair then recaps last week’s events where Wade Barrett attacked his foe Chris Jericho. A video shows on screen of Barrett placing Jericho in a deadly submission move known as the Dragon Clutch. Matt informs us that Barrett has named the move the Barrett Clutch. Wade is in tag team action right now.

*END OF DAYS*​

Wade Barrett is ready; he walks out onto the stage to some intense heat from the crowd before flinging his jacket that was draped over his shoulders. Barrett is in the ring and he cockily taunts the crowd.

*HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD*​

And here is his tag team partner, Dolph Ziggler. The show off flaunts about on the stage before he begins to walk down to the ring. Barrett doesn’t acknowledge his partner as he enters the ring. Maybe some tension?

*BED OF NAILS*​

Tyson Kidd comes bounding out onto the stage; he is riled up and wants to get his hands on Dolph Ziggler. He runs down to the ring before wisely stopping. He doesn’t fancy getting in the ring alone with these two superstars so he waits on the outside for his partner. The lights cut out!

*BREAK THE WALLS DOWN*​

Here he is the Ayatollah of Rock n’ Rolla, light up jacket in all. Chris Jericho isn’t happy. As he walks down the ramp Matt Striker tells us we’ll see this tag match when we come back.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Match Two
Wade Barrett & Dolph Ziggler vs. Tyson Kidd & Chris Jericho​

We join this match a few minutes in and Dolph Ziggler has Chris Jericho in the corner, he is unloading on the Fozzy star with right hands. Ziggler takes Jericho into his team’s corner and he tags Wade Barrett. Ziggler then picks Jericho up and hits an Atomic Drop and Barrett then takes him out with a clothesline. Barrett makes a cover. 1…2…Jericho kicks out!

Barrett doesn’t look impressed with the resilience shown by Jericho. The bare knuckle boxer brings Jericho to his feet and begins his ruthless assault. BAM! What a punch from Barrett! After he hit a few jabs he caught Jericho with an uppercut that may have knocked him out. Jericho is motionless and Barrett proceeds to drag his dead weight into his corner of his team. Dolph then tags him on the back before vaulting over the top rope. Ziggler then leaps high into the air and drops an elbow right to Jericho’s heart. Before Ziggler attempts another he stops, fixes his hair and then proceeds to do a headstand, clearly taking advantage of the downed Jericho. Ziggler then wanders towards Tyson Kidd on the apron and flicks his hair right in Kidd’s face; angrily Kidd fires a punch and gets Ziggler right in the jaw. Ziggler turns’ away holding his face in pain and just ignores Tyson who is goading him to come back for more. Ziggler picks Jericho up to his feet and whips him to the ropes, clotheslin-NO! Jericho ducks and runs towards the ropes, Ziggler stops his momentum dead with a deadly dropkick, Dolph makes a cover. 1…2…Jericho still won’t accept defeat!

Dolph is furious; he clearly feels that was enough to put Jericho away. He stalks his prey like a Lion would a Gazelle. He wants to hit the Zig-Zag, Jericho is stirring and he’s up due to the help of the ring ropes. Zig-NO! Jericho holds onto the top rope which leaves Ziggler crashing into the mat. Jericho runs past Ziggler and jumps from the middle rope…Lionsault! Jericho hits a Lionsault. Ziggler is down in the centre of the ring, Jericho makes a cover draping his arm over Dolph’s chest. 1…2…Ziggler gets his shoulder up!

Jericho clearly felt the effects of his own move there, he is down clutching his gut and Tyson wants the tag, Jericho has begun the crawl but Ziggler is now waking up and can see Jericho going for the tag. He’s made-NO! Ziggler grabs Jericho’s leg and stands up with a disgusting smirk across his face; Jericho is up now on one leg. Enziguri, WAIT Ziggler ducked, Jericho is in no man’s land WOW! He uses his leg to come back across and he nails Ziggler right in the face much to the crowd’s delight. Both men are down in the centre of the ring, Jericho is slowly but surely making his way to his partner and eventually Ziggler begins to do the same. TAG! Barrett is in, TAG Kidd is in!

Tyson flies over the top rope and hits the oncoming Brit with a missile dropkick! Both men quickly get up and Kidd runs at the ropes, running back he ducks a right hand and then leaps up and drops Barrett with a Hurricanrana. Kidd exits the middle rope and stands on the apron and springboard elbow! Barrett is out, he makes a cover. 1…2…Barrett powers out!

Tyson wastes little time, he’s got Barrett’s legs and he’s going for a Sharpshooter, Barrett on the other hand has other ideas and tries to fight Kidd off. Barrett pushes Kidd away with the brute force of his legs and Jericho makes a blind tag, even Tyson doesn’t feel it. Barrett is up and Tyson goes for him, Winds Of Change! Tyson’s spine cracks on the floor and he rolls under the bottom rope to the outside. Barrett doesn’t realise Chris Jericho is the legal man! Jericho is waiting for Barrett to turn around, he does, Codebrea-NO! Barrett grabs a hold of Y2J! He switches Jericho’s position and gets him on his shoulders…Wasteland! Barrett has hit the Wasteland. He isn’t going for a pinfall? He flips Jericho over onto his stomach and sits on his back; he has got his arm wrapped around his neck. The Barrett Clutch is locked in and Jericho has no place to go! Tyson desperately tries to get into the ring but Dolph Ziggler grabs his legs. Jericho has no choice, the pain is unbearable, TAP TAP TAP!

Winners: Wade Barrett & Dolph Ziggler via Submission.

Matt Striker is going ballistic at ringside! Wade Barrett has just made Chris Jericho tap out. Meanwhile in the ring Wade has his hand raised by referee Jack Doan however he then sits back on Jericho and reapplies the Barrett Clutch. Tyson Kidd however has freed himself from Ziggler’s grasp on the outside and he charges into the ring and fights off Barrett. He hits him numerous punches and then clotheslines the Brit over the top and to the outside. Kidd stands on the top rope and invites Wade to come back into the ring, UH-OH Dolph Ziggler is in the ring behind Tyson who now climbs down from the top unaware of what is behind him…ZIG-ZAG! Dolph sends a message to Tyson Kidd, a message of pain as Kidd’s head bounces back off the mat with authority. Ziggler stands alone among the men in the ring as Wade Barrett is at the top of the ramp.

The commentary team discuss the problems between Dolph and Tyson before we cut backstage to Alberto Del Rio with his announcer Ricardo Rodriguez. Del Rio is wearing a clean cut white suit and has his Intercontinental Championship draped on his shoulder, Ezekiel Jackson then enters the frame and the microphone now picks up their conversation. Del Rio says that he wants Jackson to do him a favour tonight, to take out Kane. Jackson asks what is in it for him and Del Rio clicks his fingers which summons Ricardo to open up a briefcase filled with money. Jackson nods his head, clearly happy with the sum in the briefcase. He walks off screen as Del Rio looks at the camera smugly. Matt Striker tells us we now know Kane’s opponent, he faces Ezekiel Jackson next!

COMMERCIAL BREAK

*DOMINATION*​

Here comes the man from Guyana, Jackson comes out to very little reaction from the crowd here tonight. He stands with a vigorous stare at the stage.

BOOM
*VEIL OF FIRE*​

Here’s the Big Red Machine Kane, he trudges through the red smoke on the stage and he seemingly has a big brown bag in his hand. The bag looks heavy but Kane has it tightly gripped over his shoulder. He enters the ring and carefully places the bag in the corner…what could be in it!? He then summons his pyro which shoots from the 4 corners of the ring. Ezekiel Jackson stands with no expression on his face, these two beasts are going to go at it right now.

Match Three
Ezekiel Jackson vs. Kane​

And here we go; these two beasts are going at it! Both men are throwing ferocious punches but Jackson ends up getting the better of Kane. Zeke then forces Kane into the corner before moving back and charging at the masked monster. He nails Kane with all of his body weight, forcing him to fall to the floor. Zeke makes a cover. 1… Kane kicks out with relative ease.

Zeke wants that money, he picks Kane up to his feet and using unbelievable strength Zeke hits a scoop slam on Kane who wriggles around in the ring. Zeke begins beating his chest and screaming for the end of the contest. He wanders towards the downed Kane and leans down towards hi- Kane grabs Zeke’s throat, he gets up to his feet and still has a tight grip on Zeke. He lifts him up, Chokeslam! Kane hooks the leg. 1…2…3!

Winner: Kane via pinfall.

Striker and Matthews talk about how even Alberto’s hired goon Ezekiel Jackson couldn’t take out the big red machine. The returning man beast couldn’t get the job done but maybe Del Rio can he runs down from the back quickly followed by Ricardo Rodriguez who has a steel pipe in hand. Del Rio enters the ring and attacks the unsuspecting Kane from behind clobbering him in the back. Del Rio begins to kick Kane in the arm, clearly trying to weaken him for a Cross Armbreaker. Del Rio tells Ricardo to grab Kane and pass him the pipe which his lackey does; Del Rio swings the pipe but-NO! Kane ducks and Del Rio smashes Ricardo across the face, Kane begins unloading his frustrations on Del Rio, punch after punch. Big boot! Del Rio rolls to the outside which leaves Kane to go over to his brown bag in the corner of the ring, what’s in it? Chains!? Kane pulls out a steel chain and begins to swing it around his head like cowboy would a rope, OH MY GOD! Kane smashes the chain across Rodriguez’s back and he falls to the outside screaming in agony. The lights fade to a dark, mysterious red colour as Kane’s music hits. We see a replay of what happened to Ricardo before we cut back to Kane staring at Del Rio who is helping his announcer up the ramp.

Matt Striker tells us that Kane used to carry chains around with him a few years ago to use them as a torture device but now he has them for protection from the Mexican aristocrat. We then cut to a graphic of Big Show and Triple H who will face off in tonight’s main event.

*CULT OF PERSONALITY*​

WOW, what an ovation for the WWE champion CM Punk, he comes out onto the stage with his massive title belt wrapped around his waist. Punk shouts out that ‘it’s clobberin time’ before he walks down to the ring. He enters the ring and picks up a microphone from the floor; he takes off his title belt and places it on the floor before he sits cross legged. Punk says that last week for once he was outsmarted. Sadly outsmarted by The Miz, Punk says that he heard in the back that Sheamus wants an apology for what happened last week. Punk tells Sheamus he’s sadly mistaken, Punk may have cost him the match but he doesn’t care because he doesn’t like Sheamus either. And he knows that Sheamus is probably going to come out here looking for a fight now but before he does he tells the world there’s going to be a fight at Judgement Day and one way or another he’ll come out WWE Champ-

Awesomeeeeee!
*I CAME TO PLAY*​

Here comes a man who objects to that statement, another member of the Triple Threat Match at Judgement Day, The Miz. He comes out wearing his ring gear as he is scheduled to face Punk tonight. Miz with a microphone in hand runs down Punk for being stupid last week. He was outsmarted by Miz last week and will be again at Judgement Day. Miz will become WWE Champion because He’s AWESOME! Miz drops his microphone and enters the ring, a referee then runs down the ramp and into the ring. Punk throws his shirt into the crowd and both men are ready.

Match Four
CM Punk vs. The Miz​

Both men walk to the centre of the ring and begin to trash talk each other, Miz fires the first shot catching Punk unaware, he quickly takes the Straight Edge champion into the corner and begins to drive his knee into his gut he does this several times before Punk falls into seated position. Miz forces his boot into Punk’s face forcing the referee to begin a count. Miz is wise enough to release Punk at a 4count before he brings him back to his feet; Miz is in complete control here clothesl-NO! Punk ducks out of the way and then strikes Miz with a backfist to the side of the face. He continues by hitting him with a kick to the leg and then a kick to the stomach that sends Miz onto his knees one more kick for good measure this time to the side of the head. Miz quickly rolls to the outside still holding his head. He uses the barricade as an aid to get to a standing position but here comes Punk! Suicide dive! Both men are out on the floor. We’ll see who can take advantage when we come back.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

We’re back, live on RAW and Miz has complete control over CM Punk in the ring, we are quickly shown how Miz took the advantage. It appears after Punk rolled Miz into the ring he played possum and then hit the oncoming Punk with a boot to the face. We cut back to the action on-going and Miz has Punk in a sleeper hold, right in the centre of the ring. Miz is leaving Punk with nowhere to go here, the crowd are behind Punk and he feels the electricity from the fans. He wills himself to a standing position and begins driving his elbow right into Miz who is left gasping for air. Punk has escaped and he hits Miz with a combination of punches and kicks but the most impactful is the high kick which sends Miz falling flat out on the floor. Punk makes a cover. 1…2…Miz kicks out!

Great resilience shown by Miz right there, Punk wants this over with now though. He claps his hands together and symbolises that it’s time for Miz to go to sleep. Punk waits for the Cleveland native to get to his feet and he hoists him up onto his shoulders, GT-NO! Miz grabs onto the top rope and doesn’t plan on letting go. Punk quickly drops him, forcing him to land awkwardly on his leg. He’s down in the corner with the referee checking on him, this looks serious. Suddenly out of the crowd we see Sheamus! He jumps the barricade and is in the ring behind Punk, Punk hears the crowd’s cries and turns around into a Brogue Kick! Sheamus quickly exits the ring and stands by the announce table, Miz sure has recovered quick as he pushes the referee aside and crawls over to Punk making the cover. 1…2…3!

Winner: The Miz via pinfall.

Miz has pinned both of his Judgement Day opponents in two consecutive weeks! He quickly exits the ring as his theme music blares out through the speakers. Meanwhile in the ring Punk is out and Sheamus is now in the ring, standing over the fallen body of Punk. The camera picks up Sheamus speaking, “I’m not gonna’ apologize fella cause’ I just don’t like you” Sheamus then averts his attention to Miz who is standing at the top of the ramp. It’s clear he’s at an advantage because Punk and Sheamus are at loggerheads leaving him to pick up two straight victories against them both. Miz has an evident smile as we fade backstage.

Scott Stanford is there and his guest is Christian! He appears to a big pop from the crowd but he does have a back supporter on, this must mean he clearly is worse for wear. Stanford asks how he is holding up after Backlash, to which he replies not so good. Christian says things are not as bad as first thought but he won’t be able to compete for a couple of months. Before he continues The Miz walks on screen, he begins to laugh at Christian and says this is what he was resorted to by him. He says while he will be winning the WWE title Christian will be watching at home. Miz laughs in Christian’s face before walking off into the distance. We’re now back at ringside, it’s a divas tornado tag team match with the two winners earning the final 2 semi-final spots in the tournament to crown a new Women’s Champion. All four divas are in the ring, it is Layla and Kaitlyn vs. Maxine and Natalya.

Match Five
Layla & Kaitlyn vs. Maxine & Natalya​

It seems from the off that Layla and Kaitlyn have a plan, Kaitlyn charges at Natalya and takes her down, the pair then roll to the outside leaving Maxine and Layla in the ring. Maxine runs at Layla and nails the British beauty with a clothesline. She pulls her to the corner of the ring and heads to the top rope; she is going for a big splash. She leaps from the top…NO! Layla moves out of the way. Layla quickly picks Maxine up and hits a neckbreaker. She hooks the leg. 1…2…3!

Winners: Layla & Kaitlyn.

Their strategy worked! With Kaitlyn taking out the experienced Natalya it left the rookie Maxine and the veteran Layla in the ring. Great strategy from the diva’s and our semi-finals are set. Beth Phoenix vs. Kaitlyn and Eve vs. Layla. Speaking of matches made, Josh Matthews says he has just learnt that Dolph Ziggler will have his chance to steal the show at Judgement Day as he will take on Tyson Kidd. We then cut to a video.

The video shows Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara working out inside what looks to be a very old gym. Mysterio talks about both men being huge superstars in Mexico and now here in the United States. Mysterio states they are training and working on more death defying moves, moves that will win them the Tag Team Championships at Judgement Day. Next week they will show Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks the real Luchadores. The video cuts off with Rey and Cara looking at each other with both of their masks a light blue and gold. We’re back at ringside and Matt Striker tells us that Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks have also been given the night off tonight as they will be in action next week.

The cameras then go backstage where Daniel Bryan and AJ are walking, the crowd boo them whole heartedly and Bryan notices something on the floor. He pushes AJ to the side before bending down and picking up the object it appears to be his own YES! t-shirt, he gets back to his feet and looks at the shirt confused, suddenly from high in the air a small variation of a Steel Cage drops down and Bryan is stuck inside it. AJ filled with fear notices a letter on the side of the structure she reads it aloud, “Nowhere to go Daniel, no help and no cheating just you locked inside with the Viper.” Bryan quickly panics and tries lifting the cage up with the help of AJ from the outside. The pair eventually does so before running away frantically. Clearly Randy Orton has upped the stakes here tonight. It’s time for our main event!

*CRANK IT UP*​

Here comes Big Show, he gets a mild pop from the crowd but he looks serious. He enters the ring and immediately turns to face the ramp.

*THE GAME*​

It’s time to play the game! Triple H comes out onto the stage with his wife Stephanie on his arm; he launches his bottle of water into the crowd before he climbs onto the apron. He spits his water into the air perfectly in unison with his theme music before he enters the ring and climbs the top rope, stretching his arms out wide to the fans delight. He jumps off the rope before the referee calls for the bell.

Main Event
Big Show vs. Triple H​

Both men start this contest by walking to the centre of the ring, gazing in each other’s the pair exchange words before Triple H nails Show in the gut with a firm punch. The Game is taking it to Show as he goes to work hitting punch after punch before he runs to the ropes and attempts a huge clothesline, his attempt sadly fails as Show stands still. He tries again but it seems he hasn’t got the strength to take the Giant down; he goes for one more but this time he is met by a bear like paw from Show smashing across his chest. Show takes advantage and pushes HHH into the corner before unleashing havoc with punches to the ribs. Stephanie looks concerned at ringside for her husband who is down flat on the floor, Show then puts all of his weight on Hunter by walking over his back, and his screams can be heard through the arena. Suddenly Dylan Kelly appears on stage with a microphone in hand, he states that if Triple H can win this match a new stipulation will be added for Judgement Day but if Show wins he will get a WWE title shot next week on RAW! Kelly then stays stood at the top of the ramp while Show quickly goes for a cover, realising the reward he will get for victory here. Sadly for him Triple H kicks out at the count of 2.

Show quickly drags Hunter to his feet and begins his assault again, he sends him into the corner before slapping his chest repeatedly, and on the last slap he shushes the crowd before unleashing the strike. Triple H’s chest has lit up into a pink colour and yet Show continues his attack. He then grabs Hunter’s head and smacks his own forehead into him as if he were cracking two coconuts together. He feels nothing but his opponent does, he falls to his knees and tries to bring himself up to his feet by using Show as a frame. A fight back on the cards!? Triple H desperately begins punching Show connecting with The Giant’s chin. Stephanie frantically cheers on her husband from ringside as he runs to the ropes and attempts that clothesline again, this time Show is forced to stumble a little bit but he’s still standing, HHH runs to the ropes again but Show ducks down for a back body drop, but The Game counters with a Facebreaker Knee smash that sends Show reeling, he then charges at Show attempting a Jumping knee drop but Show catches him. He has him held up by his knee and Show runs into the turnbuckle pressing all of his weight against Triple H’s knee, The Game drops to the floor and rolls around in agony while he has a firm clutch on his knee. Show drags HHH to one leg and picks him up before hitting a dangerous sidewalk slam. He quickly covers The Game, 1…2…HHH stays alive!

Show stalks Triple H, The Game uses the ropes to get up onto one leg and Show is ready to charge behind him. He does so but eats a knee from Triple H, as he jumped for a spear HHH used any power he had left to deliver a knee to Show’s face. Triple H hooks Show’s arms Pedigree! He hits the Pedigree, and drapes his arm over the Giant’s chest, 1…2…3! NO! Big Show kicks out; he isn’t going to let a WWE title shot go that easily. Stephanie can’t believe it and neither can Hunter who crawls towards the corner before looking at the fallen giant. Triple H doesn’t know what to do next, he contemplates his next move and does a crotch chop before wandering over to his downed opponent he tries to pick up Show but it proves to be a hard task as he is dead weight. Eventually HHH hooks his arms for another Pedigre-NO! Show picks him up high into the air and hits a back body drop, Show is up and unhooks the straps from his attire, and he wants to end this now. Show brings Triple H to his feet before grabbing him by the throat, he tries to escape but Show lifts him high into the air before smashing his back against the mat with authority, what a Chokeslam! Show makes a cover, 1..2…Triple H gets his foot on the bottom rope!

Dylan Kelly then begins to walk down the ramp from the top of the stage; he clearly wants a closer look at the action but that doesn’t bode well with Stephanie who gets in the chairman’s face ordering him to back away from the ring. Meanwhile inside the squared circle Big Show has his hand cocked and ready for the W.M.D, Triple H is up and he groggily turns around, WM-WAIT! Triple H ducks leaving Show to punch the turnbuckle, the referee has now been distracted by Stephanie and Kelly who are arguing on the outside. Big Boot from Show and Triple H falls to the outside just in front of our commentary team. Show quickly walks to the ropes and reaches over grabbing Triple H by the hair. SLEGEHAMMER! The Cerebral Assassin catches Show right in the jaw and he is sent reeling and is hunched over. The referee turns around to see Triple H roll back into the ring and he limps over to Show. Hooks his arms, Pedigree! He hits it and makes the cover. 1…2…3!

Winner: Triple H via pinfall.

What a win for The Game, the crowd are ecstatic and his wife Stephanie enters the ring to sit with him. She is quickly followed by Dylan Kelly who asks for a microphone, he crouches down so he can look Hunter in the eye before he speaks. He says that he is a man of his word and there is a new stipulation for Judgement Day and it is that IF Hunter can get the win against John Cena he will become the RAW general manager! The crowd pop huge for this decision as Triple H who is still sat in the corner lets out a brief smile to his wife. Kelly then heads towards the back and through the curtain where the camera has followed him, he walks past his security guard on the door before entering his office to see it has been trashed. His table has been thrown to the ground and his papers have been thrown all over the room. On his office chair, he sees that there is a note which he opens for the camera to see and it reads, ‘I’m not just coming for you Kelly, I’m coming for your whole company’. The note then has the WWE logo smeared in blood to which the commentators react to shocked, they say if things weren’t serious enough between Kelly and Cena they sure are now. Kelly throws the letter to the ground before noticing a green John Cena cap on the floor, he screams and kicks Cena’s cap across the room before he then begins to throw things around the room. RAW abruptly cuts off air with Kelly screaming furiously.

[The Cult]

Monday 14th May 2012 | Consol Energy Center, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania​

RAW kicks off with the usual intro package before the pyro fizzles around the stage in front of this capacity crowd. We cross live to our announce team Matt Striker and Jerry ‘The King’ Lawler. Who has been absent from commentary for two weeks now, they both tell us that Dylan Kelly is furious after his office was trashed last week and all signs lead to the culprit being John Cena, they tell us that Dylan Kelly has put out the order of Cena not being allowed anywhere near this company until Judgement Day.

*SICK*​

The capacity crowd erupts into boos as WWE chairman Dylan Kelly walks out onto the stage with his new theme music Sick by Adeltias Way. Kelly who as usual looks very dapper in his suave suit seems paranoid as he and his company are at threat. After he gets to the ring he asks for a microphone. With real passion and anger in his voice Kelly tells this crowd that John Cena better stay away from him or he will get him thrown in prison. This doesn’t mean that he fears Cena but Cena should fear him if he shows up here. The chairman tells us that later tonight Triple H will face off against Big Show again but this time in a Street Fight! Kelly says that Triple H had to use a weapon to defeat Show last week so this week the odds are evened with weapons legal. And if you thought Show was angry last week he’s even angrier tonight after Hunter cost him a shot at the WWE title last week. Kelly sarcastically tells the crowd to enjoy the show and goes to exit the ring…

*CULT OF PERSONALITY*​

What an ovation! CM Punk bursts out onto the stage with his WWE Championship wrapped around his waist. Punk begins to walk down to the ring as Dylan Kelly now stands in the centre of the squared circle, Punk stands on the top turnbuckle with his arms spread out wide with the crowd roaring with appreciation. He climbs down the top before getting a microphone, Kelly clearly isn’t happy to see him but Punk doesn’t seem to be too happy himself. Punk claims that as WWE chairman Kelly needs to forget about him and focus on the main asset in the company the WWE Championship, which provokes a big pop from the crowd as Punk raises the title into the air. Punk says that last week Sheamus cost him a match against The Miz and he wants a piece of the Celtic Warrior tonight! Kelly quickly replies by saying that Punk also cost Sheamus a match against The Miz but the feeling is mutual from Sheamus who came to ask Kelly for a match with Punk a few days ago. Kelly declares that tonight it will be The Celtic Warrior Sheamus taking on the WWE Champion CM Punk tonight!

Awesomeeeeeeee
*I CAME TO PLAY*​

Much to the disappointment of CM Punk, The Miz saunters out to some big heat from the crowd. Wearing his ‘Danger I’m Awesome’ T-shirt. He has a microphone in hand and starts by saying Really? Miz says that the WWE Championship may as well be handed to him right now as he beat Sheamus two weeks ago and he beat CM Punk last week. Punk abruptly cuts off Miz by saying come back to real world which gets a pop from the crowd as it is the show Miz used to appear on. Punk says he had him beat last week if it wasn’t for Sheamus and Sheamus had him beat two weeks ago if it wasn’t for Punk himself. Punk says that his championship won’t be handed to anyone especially a MTV reject. Clearly that comment didn’t go down well with Miz who goes to speak with anger before Dylan Kelly interrupts claiming he has an idea. Kelly says that tonight it will now be Sheamus vs. CM Punk with The Miz as the special guest referee! The crowd don’t like that and neither does CM Punk but Miz on the other hand now has a huge grin on his face. Kelly’s theme music hits before he exits the ring leaving Punk to stare at Miz who is at the top of the ramp. We fade to commercial with Matt Striker reiterating tonight’s huge match.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

We’re back on the air with Alberto Del Rio in the back along with Ricardo Rodriguez who clearly looks worse for wear after last week. Alberto begins talking and says that Ezekiel Jackson couldn’t get the job done last week but Alberto is $100,000 sure that this man can get it done. The camera then pans to The Great Khali who Alberto has brought back to the WWE for one night only. Khali nods his head which makes Alberto a very happy man, he and Ricardo then scamper off as we head to ringside.

*ANCIENT SPIRIT/BOOYAKA BOOYAKA 619*​

A mixed theme song blares through the PA system as the two masked men Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara burst out onto the stage both wearing matching attires. They slap hands with each other before running down to the ring and both catapult themselves in over the top rope. They pose on the top rope before they both stand in the corner deep in conversation with each other.

EXCUSE ME!​

The crowd erupts with jeers as Vickie Guererro shouts out her famous catchphrase. The cougar then introduces her client…

*GET ON YOUR KNEES*​

To some mild heat Vickie’s current client ‘The All American American’ Jack Swagger appears standing alongside Vickie before they begin to walk down the ramp. Swagger doesn’t know who his partner tonight is and he looks to the stage waiting for his arrival.

*BROKEN DREAMS*​

Swagger and Vickie look impressed with who Swagger has to team with, Drew Mcintyre who walks down the ramp to little reaction from the crowd. Mcintyre enters the ring and shakes hands with Swagger before exiting onto the apron.

Match One
Tag Team Match
Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara vs. Jack Swagger & Drew Mcinytre w/Vickie Guererro​

Rey Mysterio and Jack Swagger are the two men to start this match off and it is Swagger with the early advantage as he takes Mysterio down displaying his great amateur wrestling ability. Swagger then lifts Mysterio up and takes him into the corner before sending his shoulder right into Rey’s ribcage, forcing the master of the 619 to gasp for breath. Swagger then carries Rey over his shoulder to his teams corner and allows Mcintyre to tag his back, the Scot quickly enters the ring he hooks Mysterio’s arm while he’s on Swaggers back with great strength he carries Mysterio before hitting a suplex, he quickly covers Mysterio. 1…2…Rey kicks out!

Drew springs up onto his feet and then proceeds to bring Rey up too, suddenly the masked superstar breaks apart his grip and hits a nice kick to the leg. He continues his offense by unleashing a series of punches to Drew’s head before running to the ropes and on his return delivers a dropkick to his knees sending Drew into position for the 619! Myserio runs to the ropes and he NO! Mcintyre moves out of the way and then drops Mysterio with a massive clothesline, near beheading him. Drew takes the opportunity to crawl to his corner and tag in Jack Swagger. Swagger charges into the ring with purpose and picks Mysterio up by his waist before hitting a German suplex that sends Mysterio flying onto his neck. Swagger then jumps over Mysterio before jumping up top Swagger Bomb! Swagger nearly crushes Rey, he makes a cover. 1…2…Rey is still alive!

Swagger can’t believe his eyes and he picks Mysterio up before sitting him on the top turnbuckle, he quickly follows Rey up to the top and begins hammering away at his head. Sin Cara is pacing around on the apron trying to bring his partner back into it, Swagger has Rey set for a superplex but he is met with a stiff punch to the ribs, Rey begins using all he has in him to punch away at Swagger and he flips over his head Powerbomb! Sunset flip powerbomb from the top rope! Mysterio makes a cover. 1…2…Swagger kicks out.

Sin Cara wants the tag; he is desperate to get into this match. But Rey ignores him and climbs slowly but surely to the top rope by the time he gets there though Swagger is getting to a standing base, Mysterio leaps through the air but ends up having to land on his feet due to Swagger dodging his attack Swagger then sweeps Mysterio by his legs and grabs his ankle…ANKLE LOCK, Swagger has it locked in and Mysterio is in the centre of the ring screaming in agony. Rey desperately tries to crawl towards the ropes but his attempts of freedom are thwarted by Swagger who drags him back into the centre of the ring. Suddenly Rey uses all of the strength he has left to push Swagger back and into his own partner Drew Mcintyre who falls to the outside. Rey is crawling; he leaps through the air and makes the TAG!

Sin Cara vaults over the ropes and into the action and Jack Swagger turns around from his bump and into a dropkick to the chin from Cara. The masked sensation then runs to the ropes before springboading from them to deliver an elbow to Swaggers face, Jack is reeling and Cara has climbed to the top rope. He soars through the air majestically does Cara but he is met with an unpleasant end as Swagger moves out of the way. Cara crashes to the mat and Swagger is the first to capitalise, he locks his hands around Cara’s gut and picks him up GUTWRENCH POWER-NO! Cara counters it into an arm drag forcing Swagger into the turnbuckle. His partner Drew Mcintyre is back on the apron and makes a blind tag. Sin Cara is unaware and he charges at Swagger he hits La Mistica! Swagger rolls to the outside where Vickie treats his injuries and Drew Mcintyre runs into the fray hitting Cara with a flurry of strikes. Drew throws Cara into the corner before turning around to Rey Mysterio on the apron, he talks trash to Rey but Rey retaliates with a kick to the head. Drew falls to his knees in the centre of the ring, Rey and Cara climb on opposite turnbuckles, they’re going to attempt the move which lead to their downfall at Backlash, and their timing must be perfect. Both men jump and each hits a dropkick on either side of Drew’s head, sandwiching his head with unbelievable force. Drew stays on his knees swaying either way he’s clearly out of it. Rey kicks him across the face forcing him to fall onto the 2nd rope, Rey calls for it while Swagger is still down on the outside.

619! Rey hits a 619, Mcintyre is groggily still standing and Sin Cara charges at him La Mistica into an armbar! These two are the legal men, Rey climbs up top…Legdrop Straight onto the back of Drew’s neck. Sin Cara quickly releases the hold and turns Mcintyre over for a cover while Rey stands guard for Swagger but he’s still down. 1…2…3!

Winners: Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara via pinfall.

The crowd are delighted and so are Rey and Cara, the masked men embrace each other in the ring before raising their arms in victory. Matt Striker praises the performances of Drew Mcintyre and Jack Swagger, a pair who were put together at random. Jerry Lawler then hypes up two huge matches for tonight right here on RAW. But that’s not all after last week’s Tag match between Dolph Ziggler and Wade Barrett taking on Tyson Kidd and Chris Jericho. Barrett made Jericho tap out and tonight they’ve been split into two singles matches, Tyson Kidd will take on Wade Barrett and Chris Jericho will take on Dolph Ziggler.

*JUDGEMENT DAY ADVERTISEMENT*

*13 DAYS AWAY*​

RAW returns with Kaitlyn already in the ring, her Women’s Championship semi-final match is right now against Beth Phoenix.

*GLAMAZON*​

Here she comes, one of the most dominant divas the WWE has ever seen. Beth walks down the ramp with a purpose to some mild heat from the crowd, Beth enters the ring and gazes into her opponents eyes but she shows no fear.

Match Two
Women’s Championship Semi-Final Tournament Match
Kaitlyn vs. Beth Phoenix​

The referee calls for this match to start and these two divas circle each other in the ring. Kaitlyn is the first to attack as she goes for a headlock but Phoenix quickly ducks underneath and puts her in a waist lock. Using impressive strength Beth lifts her up and launches her into the turnbuckle, forcing her to bounce straight off it in devastating fashion. Beth quickly pulls her away from the ropes for a cover. 1…2…Kaitlyn gets her shoulder up!

Beth quickly gets back on the offense and begins to stomp on her opponent driving her foot right into her face. Beth brings Kaitlyn to her feet and hooks her arms for a Glamslam! Sadly for her Kaitlyn wriggles free and hits Beth with a stern elbow to the chin, Beth is reeling and Kaitlyn hits a flying clothesline. Kaitlyn has taken down the Glamazon! Kaityln sits behind Beth grabbing her arms…LOTUS LOCK! She’s got it locked in; the pain Beth must be feeling is unrivalled. Kaitlyn putting all of her might into claiming this huge scalp, Beth forces herself back and she counters the hold into a pin! 1...2…Kaitlyn kicks out!

Beth with a great counter there, she’s still in pain as it is visible when she climbs to her feet, Kaitlyn is now up to her feet too. The pair begins trading blows as the crowd reacts to every punch, Beth takes advantage and whips Kaitlyn into the turnbuckle she charges at her with speed but Kaitlyn uses the ropes to push herself up onto the top turnbuckle. She wraps her legs around Beth’s neck like a Boa Constrictor would to its prey. Beth is gasping for breath as Kaitlyn pulls on the ropes to add more pressure, The Glamazon then pulls away from the corner and Kaitlyn is sat on her shoulders, she falls back…QUEEN SUPLEX! Kaitlyn landed right onto her neck, the cover is made. 1…2…NO! Kaitlyn kicks out again!

Beth is angry and she rags Kaitlyn to her feet and hooks her arms, GLAM SLA-NO! Kaitlyn counters into a small package! 1…2…Beth kicks out! Kaitlyn thought she had it right there, Beth is the first up and she brings Kaitlyn to her feet. She begins hammering away at the first female winner of NXT before going for a clothesline…Kaitlyn ducks and kicks Beth in the gut, DDT! Beth’s head bounces off the canvas. Kaitlyn slowly gets to her feet still clutching her neck, with great strength she carries Beth and sits her on the top rope before climbing up after her, she hits a few blows before turning her back to Phoenix and spreading her arms out wide to the crowds delight…WAIT! Beth grabs her arms, and moves her to the top. Beth leaps, GLAM SLAM FROM THE TOP ROPE! Kaitlyn is out of it and Beth drapes over her dismantled body. 1…2…3!

Winner: Beth Phoenix via pinfall.

At the commentary desk Kaityln receives all the plaudits as she took Beth all the way here tonight, but we now know that it will be Beth Phoenix vs. Eve or Layla for the Women’s Championship at Judgement Day. The camera shows Kaitlyn still down in the ring and Beth walking up the ramp holding her ribs as we go to commercial.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

RAW returns with Josh Matthews who welcomes us back to the show and to his guest at this time AW, he stands alone here tonight as Josh Matthews begins to speak, he informs us that at Judgement Day a match has been made Mark Henry and the Prime Time Players will take on Kofi Kingston, R-Truth and Evan Bourne with AW and Booker T in their teams respective corners. Matthews asks AW’s thoughts on the match made before the smooth talking AW replies by saying he feels good. He says his clients have been given the night off tonight but he’s still here to scout the opposition. He says he doesn’t even think Kofi and his team stand a chance and that Booker T doesn’t have anything on him. AW then brashly claims that the sooner Kofi comes to his senses and joins them the sooner he will become great, AW then walks off screen.

The camera then pans to show The Great Khali walking through the backstage area; Striker begins to tell us he faces Kane next before out of nowhere the Big Red Machine takes Khali down with his Chains! Kane pummels away at the Punjabi Giant as the crowd's cheers are heard in the background. Production members are seen running away from the pair as Kane picks Khali up to his feet, he proceeds to use unrivalled strength and Chokeslam Khali through a table with food on it! Kane then grabs the camera from the camera man before zooming it at Khali’s lifeless body. Kane says he will capture the Intercontinental Championship from Alberto Del Rio because they have a match at Judgement Day. Kane then turns the camera back to his face and begins laughing manically whilst holding his chains by his face. The camera abruptly becomes fuzzy before we return to a working one at ringside.

Jerry Lawler says that Kane has definitely sent a big message to Alberto here that no matter who he pays off there is no way he will stop the devil’s favourite demon. Lawler says that Kane vs. Khali was the next scheduled match but now we’ll see…

LIGHTS OUT​

The Pittsburgh crowd erupts as the lights in the arena go off, a light up jacket then appears but suddenly it is flung off as the fireworks explode and this man’s theme hits…

*END OF DAYS*​

Those cheers heard a few moments ago have now transformed into massive jeers as Wade Barrett was clearly mocking Chris Jericho’s entrance. Wade walks down to the ring all while laughing and claiming he outsmarted everyone. Matt Striker on commentary agrees with this statement on commentary claiming that he may not like Wade but that was brilliant. Wade enters the ring and raises his hand high in the air before turning to face the stage.

*BED OF NAILS*​

Here comes the last graduate of the Hart dungeon, Tyson Kidd to a huge ovation from the crowd. Tyson who is a good friend of Chris Jericho clearly doesn’t agree with what Wade Barrett’s actions here tonight. Tyson vaults over the top rope and stares down his opponent.

Match Three
Wade Barrett vs. Tyson Kidd​

The bell sounds and a lets go Tyson chant reverberates around the arena, Barrett and Tyson then lock up in the centre of the ring with Wade easily taking advantage due to his superior size and strength he throws Tyson into the ground and just laughs at the young Canadian who gets up to his feet, he quickly silences Barrett by sweeping his legs and attempting a Sharpshooter but Wade scampers onto the outside of the ring. We will come back to this match after the break.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

And we’re back on Monday Night RAW; Wade Barrett is in complete control over Tyson here. Wade has Tyson locked in a leg crab in the centre of the ring. The young Canadian superstar’s screams can be heard as he tries to crawl to the ropes; a ruthless Wade Barrett however isn’t letting him budge as he grips onto his leg. Tyson then begins a fight back, he crawls and crawls and makes it to the bottom rope! Barrett however utilizes the referees 5 count and keeps the hold applied a little after Kidd reaches the ropes.

Wade then brings Tyson to his feet before driving his forearm into the youngsters face, continuing his onslaught Barrett picks Tyson up and onto his shoulder before hitting a powerslam, he then makes a cover. 1…2…Tyson gets his shoulder up! The crowd are doing their best to encourage Tyson back into this match but it doesn’t seem to be working as Barrett is just decimating his opponent. Tyson is still down after that powerslam and Wade is heading to the top rope. He smugly raises his hand in the air and then leaps going for an Elbow drop but Tyson moves out of the way! Wade ends up flying into the canvas, much to the crowds delight. Tyson then quickly takes advantage and attempts a bridge pin. 1…2…Wade powers out! Tyson has a lifeline; he exits onto the apron and waits for Barrett to get to his feet. Wade eventually gets to his feet and Tyson springboards over the top rope…BAM! Wade nails Kidd with a big boot as he flies towards him. Barrett picks up the dead weight of Kidd and hoists him onto his shoulders…WASTELAND! Barrett hits his finisher to great effect and he turns Kidd onto his stomach, he is going to apply the Barrett Clutch. Suddenly Barrett looks as though he’s had an epiphany; the Brit grabs Tyson’s legs and turns him over into a Liontamer! Barrett is using his enemies famous submission move, Tyson faintly begins to…TAP! TAP! TAP!

Winner: Wade Barrett via submission.

Wade Barrett’s performance is being praised here tonight by the commentary team; the fans however still don’t like him. He cockily raises his hand before he again begins to beat down Kidd. He is using the young man as a tool to get to Jericho by beating down his friend. Barrett pummels away at Kidd before sitting on his back, you know what’s coming…BARRETT CLUTCH! Barrett has locked in his submission move, Tyson is frantically tapping out but Wade won’t stop. The youngster begins to fade away as Barrett then releases the hold. This has been a great help for Dolph Ziggler too as he is scheduled to face Kidd in 13 days. Barrett’s theme music hits as he exits the ring and heads up the ramp leaving Tyson down inside the ring.

The commentary team hype up 4 more big matches here tonight, Triple H versus Big Show in a Street Fight, Eve versus Layla in the other Semi-Final of the Women’s Championship Tournament, Chris Jericho versus Dolph Ziggler and Sheamus versus WWE Champion CM Punk with The Miz as the special guest referee. A graphic then appears on screen hyping up Daniel Bryan in action next against Zack Ryder.

We then cut off screen to another vignette for Bray Wyatt. The vignette appears to be the same one which we saw last week. We then go back to the ring where Zack Ryder is posing with his theme sounding out around the arena.

*FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES*​

Daniel Bryan then walks out from behind the curtain with AJ to some big heat. The pair appears to be extremely angry after Randy Orton’s recent mind games. Daniel seems to want to take out some of that aggression on his opponent here tonight.

Match Four
Zack Ryder vs. Daniel Bryan​

In an aggressive start Daniel takes control of the Long Island Iced Z by taking him into the corner and delivering some kicks to his midsection. Bryan then drags Ryder into the middle of the ring and kneels down behind him before he begins delivering elbows to Zack’s jaw. What aggression from Bryan, Zack may be out cold from those elbows. Bryan after releasing Zack heads up to the top rope before leaping and hitting a head-butt to the heart of Ryder. Zack has been completely decimated here, Daniel has shown aggression of the likes which we have never seen from him. Daniel instead of going for the cover then locks Zack in the YES! Lock immediately forcing him to, TAP! TAP! TAP!

Winner: Daniel Bryan via submission.​

Impressive work from Daniel Bryan here tonight, AJ his girlfriend quickly enters the ring and hugs her man. Bryan still has a look of anger on his face as Zack Ryder rolls out onto the outside, suddenly…

*VOICES*​

Randy Orton’s music hits to a huge pop from the crowd but there is no sign of the Apex Predator. Then from above much to Bryan and AJ’s dismay a Cage begins to slowly lower down, before it covers the ring Bryan and AJ exit to the outside leaving the Cage to enclose the ring. Strangely there appears to be a bag hanging with a piece of white paper attached from the corner of the cage. Daniel walks round to the announcer before taking a microphone. He states that he has had enough of Randy’s games; he says that the aggression he has just shown against Zack Ryder will be a lot worse at Judgement Day. Daniel then noticing the bag inside the Cage, he opens the door and cautiously enters ordering AJ to stay outside. Daniel then takes the bag from the top and it seems to be heavy, he quickly places it on the floor before taking the note off and reading it aloud. “Daniel, Daniel, Daniel. I warned you last week just you in the Cage with the Viper”. Suddenly Bryan shrieks as a LIVE VIPER! Crawls from out of the bag as the crowd pops huge, Daniel however quickly scatters from the ring and out of the Cage to his girlfriend AJ on the outside who is also clearly distraught. They both then start to run up the ramp as the camera pans back to the Snake slithering around in the cage as we go to commercial.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

Awesomeeeeeeee!
*I CAME TO PLAY*​

The Consol Energy Center has erupted with jeers for the Awesome One, he casually waltzes out from behind the curtain with his black and white referee shirt on. He seems to be happy about the situation he is in tonight as the power is in his hands. He cockily raises both of his arms in the air waiting for the two competitors in this match.

*WRITTEN IN MY FACE*​

Here comes Sheamus! He bounds out to the stage beating his chest to a huge ovation; he is ready to get his hands on CM Punk as he quickly enters the ring giving Miz a cold stare.

*CULT OF PERSONALITY*​

And another huge ovation as WWE champion CM Punk appears on the ramp; however he quickly throws his title onto the ground and charges to the ring. When he enters he is met by Sheamus, the pair start brawling in the ring and Miz calls for the bell to get us under way.

Match Five
Sheamus vs. CM Punk
Special Guest Referee: The Miz​

Both men are trading blows in the centre of the ring much to the delight of The Miz, Sheamus eventually takes control and works Punk into the corner he begins hammering away hitting him several times in the gut. Sheamus is then pulled away from Punk by Miz our referee who seems to be doing his job properly. Sheamus pulls Punk out and then clobbers him with a clothesline, he makes a cover. 1…Punk kicks out!

Straight back to work from the Irishman as he rags Punk up to his feet, he whips the Straightedge superstar to the ropes and as he rebounds towards him hits a-WAIT Punk ducks his clothesline attempt and the hits Sheamus with a spinning heel kick right to the chin. Sheamus quickly reels back up to his feet and falls into the corner, Punk begins the charge…STEP-UP HIGH KNEE connecting to Sheamus and now he rounds it off with a Bulldog. Punk makes a cover. 1…2…Sheamus just manages to kick out!

Punk wants to put Sheamus asleep and he is waiting for the Irishman to get to a vertical base, he does and Punk hoists him up. Sheamus on the other hand is fighting out of it delivering savage elbows to Punk’s chin. Suddenly Miz pulls Sheamus off of Punk’s shoulders leaving Punk extremely angry. He turns around to Miz who begins backing away pointing to his shirt with a huge smile on his face as Punk pulls his hand back to punch Miz he is grabbed and hoisted onto Sheamus’ shoulders…WHITE NOISE! Punk is sent crashing into the mat, Sheamus makes a cover. 1…2…Punk kicks out!

Miz has a deranged look on his face and he exits the ring to the outside, he picks up a Steel Chair and brings it back in the ring ordering Sheamus to use it. Sheamus stares at the chair contemplating what to do before Punk gets to his feet and kicks Sheamus in the side of the head forcing him to fall into Miz taking him out, Punk then picks up the rebounding Sheamus and hits a GO TO SLEEP! Punk has this thing won but Miz is down. Punk tries waking Miz up and eventually does, the Awesome One is clearly unhappy with Sheamus as he begins a fast count. 1…2…SHEAMUS KICKS OUT!

How did he kick out!? A fast count from Miz and he still kicks out. Punk holding onto his ribs then slowly heads for the top rope; he raises his hands high in homage to Randy Savage and leaps from the top ELBOW DROP! Punk hits it and hooks the leg. 1…2…3!? WAIT MIZ STOPPED COUNTING AT 2, HE IS STARING PUNK IN THE EYE! Punk is furious and he gets to his feet, he stalks Miz around the ring following him to each and every corner. Suddenly Miz throws a punch at Punk but it is blocked, Punk picks Miz up onto his shoulders! He’s going to hit the referee with a G.T.S, Punk turns around with Miz on his shoulders...BAM! Sheamus hits Punk with a Brogue Kick, Miz falls off onto the mat and Sheamus hooks the leg. 1…2…3! NOW BOTH SHEAMUS AND MIZ HAVE PINNED THE WWE CHAMPION IN SUCESSIVE WEEKS!

Winner: Sheamus via pinfall.

The crowd are mixed completely here as Sheamus and Punk both have a great following, the cheers however are stronger as Sheamus gets to his feet, THERE’S MIZ! Miz proceeds to clobber Sheamus from behind with that Steel Chair that was on the mat, Sheamus is wincing in pain as he falls to his knees; Miz then drops the chair in front of Sheamus and hooks his arms…SKULL CRUSHING FINALE ON THE STEEL CHAIR! Both of Miz’ opponents are down in the centre of the ring as the Awesome One raises his hands into the air. Could this be the scene at Judgement Day? Because for weeks now Miz has outsmarted his two opponents for the pay per view, you could be looking at your NEW WWE CHAMPION come Judgement Day.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

 

[The Cult]

(Continued)​

We are welcomed back to Monday Night RAW by our commentary team who recap what happened before the break, they also say that this happened during the break as we cut to a video. The video shows a limo arriving and Chris Jericho exiting it, Josh Matthews asks him what he thought of Wade Barrett’s attack on his friend Tyson Kidd however he received no response as Jericho just removed his sunglasses and walked away with real aggression in his face. He faces Dolph Ziggler in a little while.

*SOS*​

Big pop as Kofi Kingston and R-Truth bounce onto the stage. The pair begins to run and both leap into the air as the pyro explodes behind them. They then climb into the ring and pose on opposite turnbuckles.

*IN THE MIDDLE OF IT NOW*​

The arena erupts with boos as the music of our Tag Team Champions hit, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks then emerge from the back with their Tag Team titles draped on their shoulders however they’re not wearing their ring gear, Reks then lifts a microphone towards his face as their music cuts out. Tyler says that he and Curt got to the arena late tonight as they were out partying because as everyone knows they’re the WWE Tag Team Champions. Reks says that as Tag Team Champions they don’t really need to compete in an unimportant match. He says that he feels the fans pain that they won’t see their heroes wrestle but to be honest they don’t care, the pair then turn and head to the back as the fans boo them out of the building. Meanwhile in the ring Kofi and Truth are both gutted and they both go to exit the ring. Then from the crowd Mark Henry and AW jump the barricade, Henry climbs into the ring and clobbers Kofi and Truth from behind. It appears AW was bluffing earlier tonight when he stated none of his clients were in the building tonight. Henry then tosses Kofi away like a rag doll before lifting up Truth…WORLD’S STRONGEST SLAM! Truth is down and he rolls to the outside, AW then rolls into the ring, barking orders at Henry. Mark drags Kofi to his feet and holds his arms wide; AW unloads with punches to the Ghanaian superstar. AW gets in his face and talk’s trash to him but Kofi spits right back in his face to the crowd’s delight. Henry takes matters into his own hands as he scoops Kofi up and hits a WORLD’S STRONGEST SLAM! Kofi is down and out; he begins rolling around in agony as AW unleashes a few stomps on him seeking revenge for the spit. Henry and AW begin to leave the ring to a chorus of boos, the camera pans onto the destruction that has been caused by really just one man…MARK HENRY.

*HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD*​

Big heat in the arena as the show-off Dolph Ziggler is introduced by Justin Roberts; he comes out onto the stage flicking his hair and begins to walk down the ramp. Suddenly from behind him Chris Jericho runs out to a big pop, wearing rock star like leather pants and suave shoes Jericho begins to beat down Ziggler. Wade Barrett sent a message before and it looks like Jericho is sending a message right now, bouncing Ziggler’s head off the barricade repeatedly Jericho’s fury is visible Barrett took out his friend and Ziggler’s enemy earlier tonight. Chris with a firm grip on Dolph’s hair then walks to ringside before forcing Ziggler’s head into the apron and then into the steel steps forcing him to flop onto the floor. The furious Jericho then pulls back the padding on the floor exposing the concrete to which he grabs Ziggler and hits a snap suplex right onto the concrete. He’s not finished yet as he grabs Ziggler’s legs and twists him over into a Liontamer! Jericho lets out a primal scream as he rips Ziggler’s body into pieces. Jericho then releases the hold and lets out a smile, his theme music hits as he backs up the ramp. Ziggler is a mess on the outside and we’re going to a commercial break.

COMMERCIAL BREAK

*SHE LOOKS GOOD*​

Well it’s Divas action next and here is Eve, she’s looking to advance in this tournament but she faces tough opposition. Eve enters the ring and glamorously poses on the top rope.

*INSATIABLE*​

And here’s her opponent Layla who comes out to a mild pop from the crowd. Layla climbs under the bottom rope and she means business right here.

Match Six
Women’s Championship Tournament Semi-Final Match
Eve vs. Layla​

An explosive start here as Layla is the first out of the blocks, she soars through the air and lands on Eve she begins ragging her hair but Eve also has a good grip on Layla’s, all of this while they roll around on the floor. Eventually both girls release each other and get to their feet but BAM! Eve hits a clothesline on Layla, the assistant to Dylan Kelly then drags Layla closer to the corner and she climbs the top rope ready for a Moonsault…Layla moves forcing Eve to crash into the mat. Layla quickly picks Eve up and hits a Neckbreaker. 1…2…3!

Winner: Layla via pinfall.

So the match is set, Layla will take on Beth Phoenix for the vacant Women’s Championship at Judgement Day. Layla celebrates on the top rope as Striker comments on how quick she took out Eve, The Glamazon Beth Phoenix then appears at the top of the ramp, a stare down then ensues between the two ladies as we cut to a Don’t try this at home video.

*CRANK IT UP*​

Time for the main event as Big Show is here to a little pop, he is still angry after last week’s events. The giant waits in the ring for Triple H the man who cost him a WWE Title Match.

*THE GAME*​

Well this is easily the biggest pop of the night as Triple H comes out with a Sledgehammer in hand. He is also dressed for the occasion too as he is wearing gym and a t-shirt instead of his usual gear. He doesn’t do his usual pose on the apron; he just stands in the corner waiting for the bell.

Main Event
Street Fight
Big Show vs. Triple H​

We are underway here and Triple H charges right at Show from the off wielding that Sledgehammer, his attack is proved futile however as Show nails him with a big boot. The Giant then grabs Hunter and chucks him over the top rope to the outside. Show follows on and he is searching underneath the ring he eventually pulls out a Kendo Stick just as Hunter gets to his feet, BAM! Show nails Triple H over the head with the stick as the crowd say ooooooohhhhh. Not just one shot as Show continues striking Hunter over 10 times across the back and his scars are already visible. Show then starts pulling apart the announce table with ease, he flings everything on the desk to the floor however he does pick up a TV monitor.

Show gets ready to strike Triple H who is just getting to his feet; he ends up eating some steel steps though as Hunter dropkicks him in the leg as he charges towards him. The Game staggers to his feet and he begins to gander underneath the ring eventually pulling out a Trash Can. He immediately smashes Show across the back with the can before placing it over his head, the Kendo Stick used on HHH before is now his weapon as he smashes the can which is on Show’s head before doing his famous crotch chop and hitting him once more.

The Game begins to manically gaze at the announce table, he eventually tries to move the dead weight of Show and he succeeds by getting him adjacent to the announce table, UH-OH! Show has grabbed Hunter by the throat and he’s lifted him high…CHOKESLAM THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE! Hunter’s body is a mangled wreck and Show is smiling about it. Pinfalls and submissions however can only occur inside the ring. Show however throws some Steel Steps into the ring before he wanders over to Triple H, using great strength Show lifts Hunter up for a Military Press and launches him over the top rope and into the ring. Wait a second, Hunter has his Sledgehammer in hand while he is down and Show is now positioning the steps.

Big Show grabs Hunter and wraps his bear like paw around his throat, SLEDGEHAMMER! Triple H nails him in the jaw with the Sledgehammer and Show is bent over. Triple H uses all he has left after going through the announce table, he hooks Show’s arms…PEDIGREE ON THE STEEL STEPS! What a shattering thud, Hunter places his arm over Show. 1…2…3!

Winner: Triple H via pinfall.

What a big win for The Game, the referee raises his hand while he is down on the mat and his theme hits around the arena. Jerry and Matt say that Triple H is going to need that instinct he has shown tonight come Judgement Day. Suddenly we cross backstage to Dylan Kelly who is sat in his office watching the ring on his TV, the smug look on his face soon changes as a loud bang is heard from outside. Dylan Kelly panicking rushes to his office door and open it, he is not met with a happy sight as a banner with the WWE logo on it has been set on fire right outside his office. RAW goes off the air with Dylan Kelly’s worried face and the logo on fire while Matt Striker says “John Cena has gone too far King, he’s gone too far”.

A Nightmare Review:

Alright Cult, Looks like I missed an episode here at some point but I can still tell whats going on so here we go.

The alliance between Kofi/Truth/Evan and Booker is a nice touch and it works well as they need some help to handle the PTP.

Dylan Kelly and John Cena fued is getting insane damn! Cena setting the WWE logo on fire and leaving the WWE logo in blood in his office? Looks like a whole new side of Cena here I cant tell if Steph and Triple H are heels or faces here but I expect an all out war between Cena and Triple H come Judgement Day.

The submissions count anywhere stip on Jericho vs Barrett is a nice touch considering Jericho is somewhat of a submission expert...I might have missed it but what is the Barrett Clutch? (I think that's what it was called cant remember off the top of my head) Either way that's another PPV match i'm really looking forward to and i'm hoping Barrett gets the victory.

Overall your putting out some good stuff man i'm digging your BT you got good feuds going and things are really heating up right now! Cant wait for Judgement Day!

 

[The Cult]

Monday 21st May 2012 | Richmond Coliseum, Richmond, Virginia​

RAW is live from the Richmond Coliseum and opens with the usual wide array of pyro. We then cross to our commentary team for this evening Matt Striker and Jerry 'The King' Lawler, they welcome us to tonight's broadcast and inform us that John Cena is here tonight! They tell us that Dylan Kelly has invited Cena to come and explain his recent attacks on the company just 6 days before his showdown with Triple H. Kelly himself isn't here tonight as he is looking out for his own safety and this leaves Eve (Kelly's assistant) as the woman in power tonight. However we will see Kelly via satellite tonight.


Eve then comes out to a mild reaction from the crowd. She is dressed to impress this evening as she will be running the final episode of RAW before Judgement Day this Sunday. Eve once she has entered the ring asks for a microphone from the outside which she receives and begins to speak. She confirms to the world that Dylan Kelly isn't here tonight which of course gets a big pop from the crowd here. However she isn't out here to talk about Kelly but to talk about tonight's events with her running things around here. Eve states that tonight we will see Champion vs. Champion as Intercontinental Champion Alberto Del Rio will take on WWE Champion CM Punk! Also after last weeks grueling Main Event Eve tells us that Triple H will not have to compete tonight. She exits the ring and heads backstage before AW headed towards her in the back accompanied by the Prime Time Players & Mark Henry. We hear his complaints to Eve loud and clearly about their match for this Sunday, he says that if Dylan Kelly was here he would listen to him but Eve herself is too stupid to listen. Eve clearly offended says that AW has just dug himself into a big hole and that tonight it will be Manager vs. Manager as he will face Booker T one on one, this decision gets a big pop from the crowd as Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler discuss AW's chances as we fade to commercial.


We return to a vignette for Bray Wyatt's WWE debut, it appears to be the same vignette that we've seen recently except the end of it says "Bray Wyatt's time is coming." From that we go into the arena were Dolph Ziggler makes his entrance, the commentary team meanwhile hype up his match this Sunday against Tyson Kidd. His opponent for tonight Alex Riley then makes his entrance to a decent pop.

Singles Match: Dolph Ziggler vs. Alex Riley
In an entertaining bout Alex Riley tested Dolph Ziggler but however came up short. The finish of the match came when Riley went high risk only to crash and burn before being nailed with a Zig Zag for a 3 count. Winner: Dolph Ziggler via pinfall. The real story however came after the match as Tyson Kidd came down to the ring. Dolph then picked up a microphone and stated that last week he and Kidd were both demolished but this Sunday they're on PPV. Ziggler says that their match probably won't be the most anticipated on the card but he sure knows that they'll steal the show (Surprising words here from Ziggler). Dolph states that he wants people to come out from the PPV saying WOW that Ziggler vs. Kidd match was awesome. After listening to Dolph ramble Tyson reminds him about all of the sneak attacks that Dolph has committed on him and that even though he agrees with what Dolph says about stealing the show Kidd won't just steal the show as he will also kick Ziggler's ass. The pair then squared up as we cut to commercial.

Once we come back on air we see Primo and Epico in the ring accompanied by the beautiful Rosa Mendes their opponents Zack Ryder and Brodus Clay then make their entrance. We are shown a video from the Backlash pre-show when Damien Sandow defeated Zack Ryder and then attacked him after only for Brodus Clay to make the save forming a new found friendship with Zack. The commentary team tell us that this Sunday at the Judgement Day pre-show we will see Brodus Clay take on Damien Sandow.

Tag Team Match: Primo & Epico vs. Zack Ryder & Brodus Clay
In a hotly contested match the team of Zack Ryder and Brodus Clay would take the spoils despite an attempt from "The Intellectual Saviour" Damien Sandow to distract them. In the end Ryder would pick up the pinfall on Epico from a Rough Ryder, Damien Sandow then clearly unhappy with his efforts grabbed a microphone and told the pair that he is not the only person tired of their ignorance and that another individual in the back would reveal themselves this Sunday after Sandow disposes of Brodus Clay.Winners: Zack Ryder & Brodus Clay via pinfall.


Up next came the "Barrett Reel" as Wade Barrett would once again wear a light up jacket and mock his Judgement Day opponent by running his mouth about his opponent's chances this Sunday at Judgement Day. Wade would tell us that he promises to make Chris Jericho tap out this Sunday and would go onto say Jericho after this Sunday Will never be the same again, of course all these insults and all of the mockery brought Chris Jericho out and he meant business. The "Ayotollah Of Rock n' Rolla" charged down to the ring and began trading blows with his opponent. Jericho eventually got the upper hand and as he readied Barrett to have his head smashed through the "Barra Tron" Wade would escape his enemies clutches and high tail it out of the ring. Jericho began trashing the ring all whilst his opponent watched on from the top of the ramp with a look of fear written across his face. Jericho has never been as irate as this in the WWE ring.


Singles Match: AW vs. Booker T
The match set up by Eve earlier tonight did not end up going as planned due to an attack from AW's associates. Winner: Booker T via Disqualification. However it would be the post-match that provided us with some big news as Booker T's associates and friends would head out and clear the ring of AW and his men. AW would grab a microphone and delivered one last plea to Kofi Kingston to join them or get hurt this Sunday just like Booker tonight. Promptly Eve would head out onto the top of the ramp and decree as punishment for AW's actions tonight that the match this Sunday will now be a 8 Man Tag Team Match with Booker T and AW being added to their respective teams. This obviously went down very well with the fans that enjoyed the sight of AW in distress. Eve is however heading down to the ring now as a contract signing will be taking place for our Women's Championship Match this Sunday after the break.

As we came back onto the air we would see the ring set up accordingly for our contract signing with the vacant Women's Championship placed on the table and with two contracts at the ready, all that was needed were the two competitors for Sunday. "The Glamazon" Beth Phoenix would be the first to make her entrance to some heat from the crowd. She would keep her eyes fixated on the Women's Championship while being sat in the big leather chair. Layla then made her way to the ring to a pop from the crowd. Before getting to the signing of the contract Eve asked if the Ladies had anything to say which prompted Beth to grab a microphone and vent her anger. She spoke about how hard it was to break into the WWE due to the company hiring models who couldn't wrestle while she is the best wrestler in the Divas division. Beth said how much she hated Layla when she would parade around with former diva Michelle McCool bullying Divas for their looks and that on Sunday she will get her payback for all the times Layla has tainted the Divas division in the WWE. Beth then threw the microphone down and signed the contract defiantly as Layla then shared her thoughts. Layla informed Beth about the past she has, and that her and Natalya used to bully girls in the locker room for their good looks and that Beth is a hypocrite. Layla said that she has to win this Sunday to complete her comeback from injury, to make her comeback successful. She signed on the dotted line and our match is set, Beth would then grab the Championship from the table and hold it high above her head to the jeers of the fans. Layla then walked around the table and stood face to face with Beth before grabbing the title and holding it above her head to this time the crowds delight. Layla then to her own peril turned her back on Beth allowing her to hook her arms, GLAMSLAM through the Table! The crowd and Eve are in awe as Beth has just slammed her opponent through a table, sending the contracts flying all over the ring. Beth standing over a battered Layla then grabbed the Women's Title and stood over her opponent with the belt raised high. Showing her dominance Beth then placed an elegant foot over Layla's face and shouted "Huh you like that boot Lay" her theme song then hit as our commentary team reacted to the shocking events.

RAW came back on the air with a brief shot of Alberto Del Rio with his Intercontinental Championship around his waist; he appears to be holding a briefcase in his hand and is in deep discussions with someone who cannot be seen on screen.

Champion vs. Champion Singles Match: CM Punk © vs. Alberto Del Rio ©
In a match where both men gave a stellar performance it would be Alberto Del Rio who took the shock victory, not without controversy though. With WWE Champion CM Punk's Judgement Day opponents, The Miz and Sheamus on commentary they would play a vital part in his loss. During the closing stages of the match CM Punk whilst on the outside of the ring after rolling his opponent back in would mock Miz by saying his catchphrase "Awesome" Punk then entering the ring would quickly turn his head back to see Miz and Sheamus brawling on the outside, this due to Miz going after Punk for his comment and Sheamus stopping him in his tracks with a big right hand. Punk distracted by the battle on the outside would then be rolled up by Alberto Del Rio who with a handful tights would pick up the win before quickly scattering to the outside. Winner: Alberto Del Rio via pinfall. A dumbfounded Punk would quickly seek revenge on his two opponents who cost him victory by executing a Suicide Dive to the outside taking out both of his opponents. Punk for once has gained the upper hand as he then stood atop of the Announce Table holding his WWE Title high into the air. This would be are closing picture before a RAW 1000 Advertisement.

Tag Team Match: Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara vs. Jack Swagger & Drew Mcintyre
In a rematch from last week's broadcast #1 Contenders for the Tag Team titles Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio faced off against the duo of Jack Swagger and Drew Mcintyre. Rey and Cara would use their high flying move set to fend off their opponents. Mid match however Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks wandered through the crowd with their Championship belts on their shoulders they quizzed members of the crowd, sarcastically discussing the flaws in their opponents teamwork. This distraction however proved no matter as the Masked Maestros would hit their devastating La Mistica/619 combo on Swagger for the victory. Winners: Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara via pinfall. A staredown between the four men from the crowd to the ring then ensued as we cut to a Judgement Day advert.

On our return we are greeted with a Steel Cage circling the ring, and we are then greeted with "The Viper" Randy Orton, Orton sauntering down the ramp walks around the ring with a sadistic smile across his face much to the fans' delight. Orton standing by the announce table picked up a microphone but was then interrupted by his nemesis Daniel Bryan along with the "Devious Diva" AJ. Bryan with a microphone already in hand kept his distance from Orton before saying it's great to finally see the man who he will beat on Sunday without any mind games needed, before he could continue Bryan was interrupted by Orton who stated they can't talk like this and should make themselves comfortable. Randy then climbed the Cage from the outside before sitting at the top, 30 feet above the ground. Randy invited Daniel to join him and after some consideration Bryan told AJ to stay on the ground as he then climbed up to the top before sitting down. Both men still a considerable distance away and opposite sides of the Cage begin to air the opinions. Bryan knows that Randy has always been psychotic but this is too far, after he beats him on Sunday Orton is going to need the White Coats to take him away for a while because he thinks it will tip him all the way over. "The Viper" clearly sees a funny side to this and psychotically laughs before speaking, he says all of the things that he has done to Bryan over the past few weeks with the Cage falling and with the live Snake were all tests and sadly Bryan didn't pass. Orton wanted Daniel to show aggression in the face of adversity but instead he showed fear. Orton tells Bryan he won’t know what has hit him this Sunday as he will see just how psychotic he really is. Daniel on the other hand reminds Orton he has the key to victory in AJ, the chess piece that will help him defeat Orton this Sunday, Bryan is then shocked as AJ has climbed up the Cage and is now sat beside him to the fans' despair. According to Daniel this is a site the fans need to get used to as he and AJ are the new power couple and will begin their take over this Sunday by beheading "The Viper." The segment then concluded with both men staring at each other across the Cage, Daniel with a look of fear and Orton with a look of pleasure.

Singles Match: Kane vs. ???
Kane makes his entrance to a great ovation; still with those Chains in his bag he enters the ring waiting for the man who wants Alberto Del Rio's money next. Suddenly from the crowd with a lead pipe in hand Del Rio himself jumped Kane from behind laying waste to him with the pipe. Del Rio was playing us all and intends to take out Kane himself. Del Rio grounds Kane before slapping on a Cross Armbreaker! This forces Kane to scream out in pain with Del Rio refusing to let Kane out of the hold, after wrenching it on for a minute or so Del Rio eventually lets go and begins to taunt the crowd. Little does he know Kane has sat up, he quickly ends that though as he turns around and nails the seated Kane with a Pipe across the face. Del Rio then headed up the ramp with his theme playing and turned to look at the ring, Kane tried to sit up but couldn't muster enough energy and he flopped back onto the floor.



That was the final commercial break of the evening and we're ringside waiting...HERE HE IS! John Cena makes his entrance wearing a t-shirt and track pants to a thunderous ovation. There is no salute from Cena who is angry, and after getting into the ring and grabbing a microphone is ready to give answers on allegations of his attacks on the company. Cena quickly brings down Dylan Kelly who not only attacked his Father but wouldn't even speak to him face to face here tonight. Cena states that someone is framing him and that he does have aggression towards Kelly but not the WWE. Before Cena can continue WWE Chairman Dylan Kelly appeared on the titantron to massive heat. Kelly asks Cena why he can't just be honest and admit to writing the notes, he even left his cap at the scene. Cena quickly interrupts and questions if he looks like the type of guy who writes notes; he's a guy who will find you and hurt you. Cena reminds Kelly that he will be present at the Pay Per View this Sunday and will get hurt. Kelly agrees he will be there but states there is a guy in the back who has got his back; and that if Cena comes near him the man will strike. John however states he will go through anything and anyone to get revenge on Kelly. And here is the man he must go through to get a match with Kelly, "The Game" Triple H. He comes down to the ring and agrees with what Cena says about Kelly being spineless but this Sunday, he's fighting for not only his job but his wife's livelihood. Cena says that may be so but he will go through anyone and that includes Stephanie if she gets in the way. This prompts a tense nose to nose face-off between both men with Kelly trying to get their attention by shouting them both. He figures a way to do this by playing a highlight video of him attacking Cena's Father. This quickly grabs John's attention as he goes to bound towards the screen, Triple H is still in his face though and the crowd is split. With the video playing Cena blasts Hunter with the microphone to the head in frustration before screaming and cursing at Kelly down the microphone. Hunter rolls to the outside holding his head while Kelly sarcastically asks if John is listening now. Kelly wants to know who has been sending the messages and still believes it is Cena. Suddenly a loud bang his heard as everyone looks to the stage before the large WWE metal logo crashes onto the stage with no one near it. The titantron then goes static before words flash on the screen, "JUDGEMENT DAY IS COMING" the screen then fizzles off as the audience don't know how to react. Cena still with his eyes fixed on the titantron is then clobbered from behind by TRIPLE H with a Sledgehammer in hand. The crowd is again split as Hunter smashes Cena with the weapon before hitting him square in the chin sending him down to the mat. Hunter then pulls the Sledgehammer back behind his head before crashing the hammer off the downed Cena's skull. John lies in a pool of blood with Triple H standing over his body with his Sledgehammer in hand, Hunter doesn't take his eyes off the bloody Cena while Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler are stunned for words, Who is sending the messages? What is going to happen this Sunday? RAW goes off the air with the scene in the ring to silence.

[workhorse]

Workhorse's thoughts:

Okay Cult, I’ll give you a quick review of what I think of all your feuds going into Judgment Day and I’ll give you a big review after the PPV.

• Team AW vs. Team Booker: I like the direction of the feud. I really was not looking forward to Booker vs AW so I’m okay with the match not actually getting underway. I’d like to see Henry become the really dominant character in his team as well. I don’t know how long you can keep a 4vs4 feud going, even though it’s pretty much AW vs Booker. I’m happy for AW and Booker to be put into the match and I expect to see AW escape having to face Booker in the ring and then eventually pin him and get the win. My only concern is, do these guys deserve time in the ring over guys like Kofi, Truth or Henry? I still think Booker and AW can be great managers, but that’s it, managers.

• Kane vs Alberto Del Rio © (Intercontinental Championship): Hmmmm, I’m a little perplexed here. Excuse any ignorance on my part but is Kane a face? While I like the aggression shown, he really did display heel type tactics. It doesn’t really do anything for the feud in the fact that he took out Khali. I see what you’re trying to do but I think it just lacked clear-cut direction.

• Tyson Kidd vs Dolph Ziggler: Now this feud is interesting. It seems to me that they lacked any reason to be fighting. Dolph’s promo was, err, interesting. No doubt the match will be a classic but I feel like there isn’t really a reason to get invested in the feud.

• Tyler Reks & Curt Hawkins © vs Sin Cara & Rey Mysterio (Tag Team Championship) + Layla vs Beth Phoenix (Divas Championship): Not a lot to be said here. Tag Team Division is getting there. Mysterio and Sin Cara is a logical pairing and I’m enjoying the push for Reks and Hawkins. I liked the promo back and forth between Layla and Beth so well done.

• Daniel Bryan (w/ AJ) vs Randy Orton: Loved the work here. The story between these three has been very good. The mind-games by Randy and then the exchange on the cage. Overall, really awesome this stuff so well done.
• Wade Barrett vs Chris Jericho (Submissions Match): Following on from their match at Backlash I’ve enjoyed the development of this feud. Jericho beat Barrett at Backlash (IIRC?) so I guess I’m expecting Barrett to get one up here. I’m not 100% sold on the Barrett mocking Jericho thing. I’d expect to see that from someone like Ziggler or Miz. But, however, I have liked how you’ve gone about it, regardless of whether I like Barrett mocking him or not. Jericho is a veteran so I hope he eventually puts Barrett over and Wade can move onto the WWE title.

• CM Punk © vs Sheamus vs The Miz (WWE Championship): I don’t mind the way the crowd are torn between Sheamus and CM Punk. The build has probably been somewhat over-shadowed by the great build for the Cena/HHH and I guess it hasn’t had the same originality or edginess like the Barrett/Jericho or Bryan/Orton. I wouldn’t mind a title change and then a feud breaking off between the other two. In fact, I hope Miz wins!

• Triple H vs John Cena: Wow! All I can say is really well done. Compelling stuff here Cult. Judgment Day is shaping up as a true spectacle. The only thing I would’ve liked is to see a Triple H heel turn here on RAW. Great stuff here Cult I’ve loved the build-up.​

Overall thoughts: Really good, original and compelling building of your feuds mate. I remember there were a lot of heel victories at Backlash and the whole event was a little predictable. Judgment looks to be completely opposite! Great work, I can’t wait for Judgment day.

Good Luck

[JamJam]

JAM's Review​

Not much to say on the opening segment, not much of an opening segment to be honest. You just had Eve announce that Kelly wasn't around and announced a pretty good match that pits Punk and Del Rio against one another. You wanna start out the show with a bang dude, so this wasn't really a good opening segment. But I'm sure you'll improve on that. Not that interested in AW vs. Booker T as well. How about we just leave the managers to just manage their talent and not compete in the ring.

Kind of awkward for Kidd to come down and just listen to Ziggler, he would've gotten the first word here imo. But what they said was good in that despite the attacks on them, they'll still put on a show for the crowd. Maybe my second favorite match on your JD card. Interesting stuff here in the second match, looks like you'll be pairing up Sandow with someone. I'm definitely interested in seeing who that can be.

Not too sure about this Barrett Reel business, it didn't really do anything. Barrett just made fun of him then Jericho came out and they came to blows. Not saying that you've been dropping the ball with this feud, but it could be way better. Like I said, we should just keep the managers at managing their talent but looks like they'll be in the match at JD to wrestle. A contract signing for the Women's Title? Seems a bit much, I would've liked it better for you to just give us a good wrestling match between the divas to establish them even more. I like that you are giving them some good exposure though, good job with that one. Just continue to establish the division even more and you'll be fine.

Kind of an awkward segment here with Orton and Bryan, I just wasn't feeling it at all. I guess it could've done without a steel cage, maybe ending with Orton giving Bryan an RKO at the end. As for the champion vs. champion match, it was fine, no surprise that Miz and Sheamus cost Punk here. Really not much to say here really.

For the last segment, so Cena isn't doing all this, seems like him though and he seemed rather heel here. Definitely an interesting twist you've added here, maybe 'Taker? I don't know, but it should make for a good match at JD. The match at JD may end in a draw with the mystery person taking out both Cena and HHH, but we'll just see.

Overall, not one of your better episodes. A lot of interruptions during matches and everything just didn't seem like it flowed well to be honest. Not to sound like I'm baggin' on you, but you could've done a lot of things more differently. Hopefully you improve as you go on and hope that JD will be a good Pay-Per-View.

WWE JUDGEMENT DAY PREVIEW

No Disqualification Match
John Cena vs. Triple H

A match where the stakes are at their highest, one man is fighting for the chance of revenge, the other fighting to keep his and his wife’s job. These two old foes John Cena and Triple H go to battle for their own reasons. John Cena who went missing after his loss to The Rock at WrestleMania breached his contract in new WWE Chairman Dylan Kelly’s eyes however this didn’t warrant the violent attack Kelly perpetrated on Cena’s Father. Of course Cena wanted to exact revenge and when Triple H got involved Kelly lost his cool and made the match, he also added that if The Game can get the win he will become RAW General Manager. With John Cena banned from RAW strange events occurred with notes addressed to Kelly saying someone was coming for him, with the jury predicting John Cena being behind these messages he was invited to Raw to explain himself. As we know Cena is a straight up guy and he vowed he didn’t do this. Dylan Kelly informed Cena that he has backup if Cena attempts to attack him and with Stephanie McMahon’s words ringing in her husband’s ears of how he needs to win this match Triple H took out Cena with his trusty Sledgehammer on Raw, this is until the words “Judgement Day is coming” flashed on screen to close the show. Who is Kelly’s back up? Who will walk out the winner? Who is sending these threats? And who are they really after?

WWE Championship
The Miz vs. CM Punk (c) vs. Sheamus

CM Punk recaptured the WWE title which was vacated with the new regime at Backlash by defeating Sheamus, with his rematch clause guaranteed Sheamus scheduled his match for this PPV. This is until The Miz who took out Christian the night before came out and declared his intentions of becoming WWE Champion was given a chance to earn his place in this match. Which he did by defeating Sheamus, since then both challengers picked up victories over the champion, CM Punk and his title are in serious jeopardy come Judgement Day.

Submissions Count Anywhere Match
Wade Barrett vs. Chris Jericho

Two men who certainly have a lot of bad blood between them go at it on Sunday. Wade Barrett sporting his new submission manoeuvre has vowed to make his former NXT pro tap after he submitted at Backlash. The devastating Barrett Clutch has been applied on more than one occasion to Jericho who has been forced to tap; with no disqualifications we will likely see a brutal contest between these two men. Will Barrett make Jericho tap? Or can Jericho finally shut Wade up?

Also at Judgement Day

Can Alberto Del Rio take down Kane to keep his title?
Can Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara sort out their coordination to win Tag Team gold?
Will Daniel Bryan survive a Steel Cage with Randy Orton?
Is it possible for Tyson Kidd and Dolph Ziggler to steal the show?
Who will become the NEW Women’s champion?
Will team Kofi be able to knock off AW and his promotion?

JUDGEMENT DAY

*PYRO*
*PYRO*
*PYRO*
*PYRO*
*PYRO*

The camera pans into the arena were the fireworks explode, the capacity crowd are deafening as Matt Striker begins to introduce us.

Matt Striker:
Welcome to WWE Judgement Day, live from the PNC Arena in Raleigh, North Carolina. I'm Matt Striker alongside the hall of famer' Jerry 'The King' Lawler!

After showing a number of crowd signs such as "HHH" "Best In The World" and "Big Red Machine" the camera pans to ringside with Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker both dressed accordingly for the event.

Jerry Lawler:
Oh and what a night we have on our hands, 9 top drawer matches LIVE on Pay Per View. But it's not just us calling the action Matt, because the Spanish announce team is here, Carlos Cabrera and Marcelo Rodriguez!

The camera pans to the two Spaniards who babble on before we cut back to our announce team.

Jerry Lawler:
Errr, What did they say?

Matt Striker:
I have no clue King, but let’s get on with the action. Kicking us off here tonight are two men who want the spotlight on them, two young superstars with bad blood Dolph Ziggler and Tyson Kidd!

Narrator:
It all started with the so called fluke...

Tyson Kidd is shown eliminating Ziggler from the Battle Royal on RAW before he was beaten down in revenge. Then we go to their match on RAW, with Kidd applying the Dungeon Lock to Ziggler.

Matt Striker:
Kidd's got the Dungeon Lock applied!

Dolph begins the frantic Tap-Out.

Matt Striker:
Ziggler taps! WHAT AN UPSET!

We then fast forwad a number of weeks to RAW 6 days ago with Dolph and Tyson in the ring.

Dolph Ziggler:
Last week we may both have gotten are asses handed to us but this Sunday it’s our chance to steal the show!

Flashes of constant Ziggler attacks are then shown before we go back to their RAW confrontation.

Dolph Ziggler:
Our chance to make people who bought the show for John Cena and Triple H to think that Tyson and Ziggler match was awesome.

Kidd looks into the eyes of Ziggler with the replays of the attacks on him shown in his reflection.

Tyson Kidd:
This Sunday we don't just steal the show, because this Sunday...I...KICK...YOUR...ASS!

The pair then square up as we fade back to the arena from the video.


Matt Striker:
King these two men get their chance right now!

After Striker finishes the bell is rung and we go to Justin Roberts in the ring, he gets a decent reception from the WWE fans here in attendance. Roberts informs us all that the following contest is scheduled for one fall.

“I’M HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD”
*HERE TO SHOW THE WORLD*

And here is the Show-Off Dolph Ziggler, he comes out to a lot of heat however a few cheers are audible, coming as a surprise due to Ziggler not really being a fan favourite. Ziggler donning a shiny silver jacket and his pink vest flicks his hair out at the audience before beginning to strut down the ramp. After Justin Roberts introduces Dolph are commentary team begin to natter about Dolph.

Matt Striker:
Ya' know King I was fortunate to catch Dolph earlier on tonight, and he told me that he can't wait to get out there and do what he does best...steal the show!

Jerry Lawler:
But don't forget Matt the amount of sneak attacks Dolph has committed on Tyson, I think he will be eager to get his hands on Ziggler.

Dolph is now posing in the ring with his eyes fixated on the ramp. He jumps off the top and then stands in his corner.

*BED OF NAILS*

Matt Striker:
Here he is the last graduate of the Hart Dungeon, the Submission specialist Tyson Kidd! King he looks fired up here tonight. This perhaps could be the brass ring Tyson needs to get in this Pay Per View match.

Tyson with a look of determination on his face vaults over the top rope and raises his arm high into the air. Clearly he doesn't want to waste time and he wants to get this match started.

Singles Match
Tyson Kidd vs. Dolph Ziggler​

And we're underway live on Pay Per View, both competitors cautiously walk towards one another before they lock up. Using force Ziggler pushes Tyson to the floor much to the youngster's dismay as he smacks the mat with frustration before they lock up again. This time Tyson quickly ducks underneath Ziggler and sweeps him down by his legs, Kidd quickly flips Dolph over into a roll up. 1...2...Dolph kicks out and grabs Tyson by his legs before flipping over into a Bridge pin. 1...2...Tyson kicks out! Both men on their knees share a look of acknowledgement before Ziggler makes the first move by charging at Tyson and sending him crashing into the corner nearly crushing the Canadian's ribs. Dolph isn't finished there as he continuously barges into Tyson before stopping and nailing the rebounding Kidd with a dropkick, he then makes a cover. 1...2...Tyson gets his shoulder up!

Ziggler wastes little time as he grips onto Tyson by his neck applying pressure in a headlock. Kidd however has other ideas as he gets to his feet with Ziggler still hanging onto his neck, he drives his elbow into the Show-Offs stomach forcing Ziggler to release him. From there Tyson runs to the ropes before ducking a clothesline this time on his way back Ziggler leap frogs over his head before ducking down for a backdrop, to his own mistake this is though as Kidd comes flying from the ropes and puts Dolph in a Sunset Flip, his shoulders are down! 1...2...OH SO CLOSE! Dolph just powers out. Kidd is quickly back up to his feet and is stalking Ziggler who is using the ropes to help himself up, he turns around into oncoming traffic as Tyson drops him with a clothesline and then another, third time’s the charm as Kidd nails Ziggler with one more clothesline before grabbing a handful of his hair and bringing him to his feet. Tyson begins raining down on Ziggler with right hands forcing him back into the corner, Kidd then backs away before running at Zigger and jumping onto his knees, WHAT A MONKEY FLIP! Ziggler is sent flying in a 450 fashion as he somehow lands face first into the mat. Tyson is feeding off the crowd's energy here as they wildly chant his name. He runs over to his downed opponent and flips him over onto his back; TYSON IS GOING FOR THE SHARPSHOOTER! He hooks his leg inside and he is trying to turn the resilient Dolph over to make him feel the full effects of the move. AND HE TURNS HIM OVER! THE SHARPSHOOTER IS LOCKED IN!

Ziggler is desperately trying to claw his way to the bottom rope but Tyson is having none of it as he wrenches Ziggler's legs back into such an uncomfortable position. Dolph has his hand high in the air and he begins to slowly lower it down, he's gonna' tap...TA-NO! Ziggler uses a burst of energy to begin his crawl from the centre of the ring to the ropes...HE MAKES IT! Tyson is forced to break the hold as Dolph makes it to the bottom rope. Tyson can't believe he didn’t finish Dolph off right there, meanwhile Dolph rolls onto the outside of the ring with the apron the only thing keeping him standing, Tyson begins to wander over to Dolph and he sticks his arm under the middle rope before Ziggler uses it to an advantage as he grabs his arm and drives it into the rope sending Tyson back to the centre of the ring gripping his arm, Dolph quickly follows and charges at Kidd...NAMEDROPPER! Ziggler hits that Leg drop bulldog. He makes a cover. 1...2...3! NO! Tyson got his shoulder up!

A look of astonishment is written across Dolph Ziggler's face as he is sat next to the prone body of Tyson Kidd; suddenly Tyson brings Ziggler down onto his back with a Crucifix pin. 1...2...Dolph just struggles out of that surprise attempt at victory from Tyson Kidd! The rage is now visible in Dolph's face as he just escapes the pinfall, he quickly gets to his feet and drags Kidd up with him before pummeling away at his head with fierce punches. The Show-Off whips Kidd into the ropes SLEEPER HOLD! Ziggler locks Kidd in a sleeper as he rebounds towards him. The fight is on as Tyson tries to fight out of the grip but UH-OH; Ziggler wraps his legs around Tyson and falls to the mat. Not only is Dolph choking Tyson he is reducing the breath by wrapping his legs around him like a Boa Constrictor, Tyson is slowly fading away as Dolph lets out a primal scream. The referee kneels down beside the pair before grabbing Tyson's floppy arm. He raises it high into the air before he drops it down to the mat and counts, 1! The crowd begin to clap in unison as Kidd still hasn't moved, the official again lifts Tyson's arm high into the air before it drops again, 2! It looks as though this one will be over as the referee checks on Kidd before grabbing his arm once more. 3!NO! Kidd keeps his arm up much to the crowds delight and he begins to move about trying to roll free from the monkey on his back and in this case that monkey is Dolph Ziggler.

Kidd begins the ascent to his feet and it's a start as Tyson is up on his feet with Dolph still on his back gripping his neck tightly, Kidd charges backwards sending his nemesis flying with his back smashing against the turnbuckle forcing him to free his hands. Tyson is on the offense now hitting Ziggler with kicks to the legs and ribs before hitting a dropkick that sends him barreling back first again into the turnbuckle but this time forcing him to fall on his face from the impact. Tyson is feeling momentum as he waits for Dolph to get to his feet before smashing him with a clothesline, and then another. Tyson ducks under a wild swing from Ziggler and grips his waist German Suplex bridge! 1...2...DOLPH KICKS OUT! So close for Tyson there who quickly slides under the bottom rope and begins his climb from the apron to the top rope where he then sits perched waiting for Dolph to get to his feet. And he is up to his feet, barely standing with legs like jelly he turns around to face Kidd who dives from the top DIVING FRANKENSTEINER! Dolph's body is flipped over into a wreck in the centre of the ring.

Tyson is going to finish this off right now, he stands on the apron before composing himself. Kidd hits it! SPRINGBOARD ELBOW DROP! Straight to the heart of Ziggler who he covers. 1...2...ZIGGLER KICKS OUT AT 2 AND 3/4! Tyson Kidd is left startled at the resilience of Ziggler as are the crowd. Tyson sits next to Dolph who is down whilst thinking of his next move, he points to the top rope to the crowds delight, he quickly leaps to his feet and gingerly walks to the corner clearly the high risk style has affected him as well as his opponent. Ziggler just starts to move on the mat as Tyson looks as though he will go for a Moonsault as he climbs up top with his back to Dolph. He tries to get his balance up top as Dolph then runs into the ropes forcing Tyson to fall uncomfortably on the top turnbuckle. OH MY GOD! ZIGGLER LEAPS HIGH INTO THE AIR AND PULLS KIDD DOWN HITTING A ZIG ZAG! WHAT A LEAP FROM DOLPH! Tyson's head smashes against the canvas with force as Ziggler drapes his arm over the chest of Tyson. 1...2...3! Ziggler has done it!

Winner: Dolph Ziggler via pinfall (13:07)

Matt Striker:
What a battle King, both of these men left it all in the ring here tonight. In the end Dolph Ziggler comes out with the victory.

Jerry Lawler:
Well I'll tell you what Matt if that's not stealing the show then I don't know what is.

Our commentary team continue talking whilst a tired Ziggler poses on the top rope with his music blaring through the PA system. His opponent Tyson Kidd has rolled out of the ring and headed up the ramp as Ziggler continues to pose. The camera then pans to our commentary team full of enthusiasm they begin to discuss WWE's Be A Star program, this leads to a short video being played with superstars such as Sheamus, Kofi Kingston and Rey Mysterio meeting children. Once the video concludes we go back to ringside with Justin Roberts in the ring.

Justin Roberts:
The following contest is a Steel Cage match! In this match there are three ways to win, by pinfall submission or by escaping the Cage with both feet touching the floor.

Jerry Lawler:
Oh here we go Matt, that Steel structure looks as menacing as ever!

Just as Lawler finishes the Cage slowly begins to lower down much to the crowds delight.

Matt Striker:
A structure what men fear, what men try to escape...the Steel Cage King!

Jerry Lawler:
Oh yeah, Daniel Bryan is gonna' be locked in there with "The Viper".

*FLIGHT OF THE VALKYRIES*

Big heat from the crowd as Daniel Bryan comes out along with AJ to an introduction from Justin Roberts. Bryan bounces down the ramp whilst performing his traditional YES! Chant before he reaches the ring, he starts feeling the outside of the Cage before he kisses AJ and enters the ring. He peers through the Cage, waiting for his opponent.

*VOICES*

Matt Striker:
Here he is, "The Viper", and what an ovation!

With that last phrase Orton appears from behind the curtain to a massive pop, looking as vindictive as ever Orton slowly walks down to the ring not taking his eyes off his opponent for a single second. As he nears the ring his attention changes to AJ, the girl who cost him victory at Backlash. The young lady immediately looks away, not wanting to look the disturbed Viper in the eye. Orton then walks up the steps and goes to enter the ring under the middle rope BAM! Daniel Bryan charges at Orton and smashes him into the Cage; the outside referee quickly closes and locks the door before the referee inside the Cage calls for this match to start. Our commentary team are screaming with shock.

Steel Cage Match
Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton​

The match is now officially underway with Daniel Bryan driving his knees into Randy Orton who is between the ropes and the Cage. Bryan drags Orton into the ring before he goes for a quick victory, 1...Randy kicks out. Bryan doesn't seem to be using his technical ability here tonight as he is showing real aggression, stomping on Orton with ferocity. Bryan brings Orton to his feet before whipping him into the turnbuckle and beginning the charge towards him but he eats turnbuckle as Orton scampers to the side before grabbing Bryan and tossing him face first into the Cage. Orton who still has a grip on Bryan's head then starts rubbing his face across the steel like cheese on a grater; Bryan's screams are audible as AJ looks away on the outside. As Randy let’s go Bryan falls in a heap on the floor allowing Randy to make a cover. 1...2...Bryan kicks out.

Orton is ruthless as he gets to his feet and begins tactically stomping on Bryan's every limb. "The Viper" then senses opportunity and climbs to the top rope before beginning to climb the Cage, Bryan however is getting to his feet and he approaches Orton and climbs onto the top turnbuckle too. Randy turns around and climbs downwards two steps leaving both men balancing on the ropes, firing punches at each other. Suddenly Bryan hooks his arms around Orton, BELLY TO BELLY! Bryan and Orton crash from the top rope to the mat. The "Holy Shit" chants are out in force from the crowd as both men are down in the middle of the ring. After a few seconds have passed we see a flicker of movement from Daniel Bryan who with his arm motions for the Cage door to be opened which the outside official does by unlocking it with the key. Bryan begins to crawl towards the door much to the crowd’s dismay, Orton is moving after Bryan who now has his hands outside the door here is AJ! She grabs Bryan's hands and tries to pull him out of the Cage but he won't budge...Orton has got a grip on his legs! Randy quickly snatches Bryan back into the ring and holds one leg as Bryan uses his other for balance; Randy spins Bryan around a full 180 degrees RKO! Out of nowhere Orton nails Bryan with an RKO and hooks his leg. 1...2...OH MY! Bryan kicks out of an RKO!

Orton can't believe that this isn't over as the Cage door slams shut. The rage is building up inside him as he starts to pound the mat in frustration all whilst AJ puts her heads in her hands on the outside. Orton almost had this won in 4 minutes! Randy slowly brings his opponent up onto his knees before delivering a harsh right hand to the skull; Bryan’s punishment is becoming more severe. Randy begins scraping Bryan’s face across the Steel, the yelps of pain is heard echoed throughout the arena as Randy decides to release Bryan. With Bryan now between the ropes and the Cage he is sent crashing with a dropkick to the chin, his head bouncing back off the Cage with real force. Randy takes this chance to bring Bryan back into the ring and make a cover. 1...2...Bryan kicks out! Randy is heading out of here; he slowly wanders towards the side of the Cage before beginning his ascent. But Daniel is up to his feet quickly and he clobbers Orton from behind. He pulls him off the top rope onto the mat and hits a kick to the leg whilst he chants YES! Another kick now forcing Randy to fall onto his knees, OUCH! Bryan nails a massive kick to the temple and he hooks Randy’s leg. 1...2...Shoulder up! Orton got his shoulder up. Here we go! Bryan scurries to the Cage and begins to climb up to the top; Orton is still down after that precisely struck kick to his head. Bryan is near the top now, clearly Orton has took a lot out of him, speaking of Orton he is now struggling up to his feet and the realisation has set in. Orton quickly follows his opponent up to the Cage and eventually reaches him, both men are firing punches at each other whilst using their other arms to hold onto the Cage, one false move and they will crash to the mat. With a sudden crash both men fall from the Cage to the mat! It appears both men attempted to grab each other and this led to their fall. Our commentary team are in awe of what these men are putting each other through while AJ has her head in her hands on the outside of the Cage. Daniel rolls himself over to Randy’s prone body and makes a cover, 1...2...Randy kicks out! The crowd have begun a duelling chant of, Daniel Bryan-RKO as both men get to a vertical base. Orton makes a wild swing for Daniel’s head but his attempt is thwarted as Bryan ducks and runs off the ropes and nails Orton with a flying clothesline. And again Bryan takes Randy’s head off with another running clothesline, Randy whips Bryan into the turnbuckle but it proves no pain as Bryan uses it as a jump start to fly overhead of Randy who was running after him. Randy turns around to be met with a rough kick to the ribs forcing him to wince in pain; Daniel is going for Randy’s arm! He takes him down onto the mat trying to hook it in, YES! LOCK! Daniel has got Randy in the centre of the ring, nowhere to go. Matt Striker is going ballistic on commentary as Daniel wrenches back on Randy’s face. Orton is desperately trying to crawl to the ropes but he is finding it hard to move, he’s fading! Orton won’t tap but he is fading away whilst Bryan keeps his hold applied, screaming out YES! Bryan notices Orton is out of it and he releases the hold before turning him over quickly attempting a cover. 1...2...3! NO! Randy somehow got his shoulder up! Daniel can’t believe it, his YES! Lock couldn’t slay Orton. His look of disbelief quickly changes to aggression as he grabs both of Randy’s arm’s...CATTLE MUTILATION! A move which Bryan predominantly used on the Independent Scene, Orton is screaming in agony and he might have to submit here. Daniel applies more pressure than before but he surprisingly lets Orton go, only for seconds as he goes to re-apply the hold, WAIT Orton rolls through and has Bryan in a pinfall! 1...2...Bryan gets his shoulder up!

Matt Striker on commentary states in his opinion Daniel released the hold because he was losing his grip. Daniel after getting to his feet begins to wander to the turnbuckle and climbs the top rope, Orton is still down after the beating he has took. AJ on the outside is advising Bryan to escape the Cage but Bryan responds by saying “I decide when this ends!” Bryan then leaps from the top rope and...NO! Orton rolled out of the way! Bryan’s Diving Headbutt attempt leads to his own downfall as he crashes off the mat. Orton is feeling it, he uses all of his strength to get up to his feet and nails Bryan with 2 clotheslines as he gets up to his feet, POWERSLAM! Daniel is sent wriggling in pain as Randy stalks his man, Daniel gets to his feet INVERTED HEADLOCK BACKBREAKER! Orton is coiled and waiting as he pounds the mat, waiting for Bryan, AJ is doing her best to grab Orton’s attention but he won’t look...RK-NO! Bryan counters and launches Orton into the Cage. Suddenly there is commotion on the outside as AJ has grabbed a Steel Chair and is trying to throw it over the Cage and to her boyfriend. The official on the outside has different ideas as he attempts to stop AJ who just looks at him blankly...OH MY GOD! AJ cracks the Chair off the referee’s skull after which she takes the keys to the Cage door out of his pocket as per orders from Daniel Bryan. The Cage door is swung open by AJ and Bryan strolls towards the exit, Orton however is back to his feet and both men are fighting by the exit, AJ still has a grip on the door and she is trying to time the swing to perfection by taking Randy’s head off. She swings the door as both men lean out their heads out of the structure...BAM! AJ has made a catastrophic mistake! She nails Bryan in the head with the Cage door forcing him to fall through the middle ropes and back into the ring, she can’t look as Orton follows him back into the ring...RKO! Randy hits a RKO, he makes a cover. 1...2...3!

Winner: Randy Orton via pinfall. (16:02)​

[The Cult]

The capacity crowd are on their feet here as Orton’s theme song sounds out through the arena, on commentary Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler are full of praise for Orton who starts to climb the Cage, and once he reaches the top he extends his arms out wide to the delight of the crowd. Meanwhile in the ring AJ is comforting her boyfriend who is still feeling the effects of the match, we now cross to our commentary team.

Matt Striker:
What a contest King, let’s have another look at the finish to that match.

This prompts our screen to show AJ smashing the Cage into Bryan’s head and Orton nailing a RKO whilst Striker and Lawler talk about what happened.

Matt Striker:
AJ in the end cost Bryan tonight and speaking of being cost a match, earlier this evening we witnessed a match on the Judgement Day Pre-Show featuring “The Self Professed Intellectual Saviour” Damien Sandow taking on Brodus Clay with Zack Ryder in his friend’s corner.

Jerry Lawler:
Sandow promised on RAW another man who was tired of his opponent’s ignorance would reveal himself tonight and that man was none other than The Big Show!

Matt Striker:
That’s right King, as Clay closed in on victory Show would emerge from the crowd and begin a ruthless assault on Zack Ryder, launching him into the barricade before delivering a Chokeslam onto the floor. Of course this caught the attention of Brodus allowing Sandow to roll up an unsuspecting “Funkasaurus” pinning him 1,2,3.

Jerry Lawler:
I didn’t expect for one second that The Big Show would be Sandow’s assailant and I really can’t wait to hear his reasoning for his ruthless attack.

Just as Lawler finishes we cross backstage into an office were the name tag reads “WWE Chairman Dylan Kelly” of course this is met with intense heat as Kelly now has the camera fixed on him sitting in his chair, he can be heard on the phone in mid-conversation.

Dylan Kelly:
I just need to know if things get heated out there you’ve got my back like we agreed.

A large grin then comes across Kelly’s face as he continues...

Dylan Kelly:
That’s good to hear, (Kelly begins laughing) I can’t wait for it. See ya’ later.

As Kelly ends the call and places his phone on the table a knock is heard on his office door.

Dylan Kelly:
Come in!

Kelly still has a smile on his face as his office door opens, he then chuckles to himself as he gets out of his chair and walks around the table.

Dylan Kelly:
Now what can I do for you...

The camera now fixes into place and the crowd pop huge as Stephanie McMahon comes into the picture looking as glamorous as ever in a red dress that shines bright.

Stephanie McMahon:
Absolutely nothing, I just came to reiterate how much I despise you. You really are a spineless coward.

Kelly doesn’t seem too affected by Stephanie’s comments as he begins to speak.

Dylan Kelly:
Just think Steph, this might be the last time we have one of these brilliant conversations. Now seeing as you’re here wish Hunter luck from me tonight. I assume you will be at ringside tonight?

Stephanie McMahon:
You know exactly where I’ll be tonight Kelly...

Dylan Kelly:
Well...until later Stephanie...

With that Kelly removes his hand from his pocket and grasps hold of Stephanie’s hand before kissing it with a sarcastic smile on his face, Stephanie however is disgusted. BAM! Stephanie cocks her hand back and slaps Kelly right across the face before exiting the room. Kelly is left with his hand across his cheek as we go back to ringside.

Jerry Lawler:
Oh boy, things are really heating up for later tonight.

LIGHTS OUT

The crowd here in Raleigh go crazy as they know whose coming next.

Matt Striker:
Oh boy, King if things weren’t heating up already it’s time for Submissions Count Anywhere!

*BROKEN OUT IN LOVE*

Jerry Lawler:
What the hell is this?

Matt Striker:
I have no idea King, I-

Before Striker can finish with the lights still out and the eerie song playing in the background this man appears with a microphone in hand. He is wearing a white vest and a straw hat. As he emerges his titantron comes on screen providing a little bit of light. This is the man being described...

Bray Wyatt:
(Laughing) Ya' see, all of you here t'night expected one thing and got another. That's what you get with me...Bray Wyatt. If you follow Bray Wyatt you will see the things that others don't...the unseeable.

Suddenly from behind Wyatt appear holograms of people (EG. 2-Pac at Coachella), one very tall man with long hair, and another man this time smaller and with little hair and a fair haired woman. This is crazy!

Matt Striker:
Oh my god, what the hell is this King? I-I...

Wyatt begins to talk again which immediately stops Striker, Wyatt begins walking towards the ring with the holograms following behind him.

Bray Wyatt:
I am full of surprises, something which you all don't know about me...but they do (turning around and pointing at the holograms) they know that I am their leader, a man who loves each and every one of them with all that I am...Bray Wyatt. When you have seen what I have seen you'll know man...

Wyatt then enters the ring with the holograms following up the ring steps, the usual fans who stick their hands out to touch performers on their way down the ramp are doing the opposite by keeping their hands as close to them as possible.

Bray Wyatt:
You'll know how it is possible to love them as much as I do. To you here t'night I am nothing but to them...I am everything. I am everything they want to be, the leaders they want to be. And when they see the...abyss they'll know they're complete.

Wyatt begins laughing as he stands in the middle of the ring with the holograms looking on behind him.

Bray Wyatt:
Bu' don't worry, maybe one day each an' every one of you could feel the love I give to them. You'll know when it’s there; (Wyatt is now laughing hysterically again) Believe me you will. Believe me when I tell you I am the angel you see in prayers and in heaven, maybe not now bu' in time. Time; don't worry about time as we got all of it in the world man. We got time to see what’s real cos’ good things come to those who believe in me...Bray Wyatt.

Wyatt then turns around and kisses one of the holograms on the forehead before lifting the microphone to his mouth again.

Bray Wyatt:
(Singing) Tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiime is on my side.

Wyatt drops the microphone before the lights all click back on making the holograms disappear. Wyatt slides to the outside before throwing his straw hat into a completely stunned silent crowd. He walks up the ramp continually saying "Time man time" before our stunned for words commentators try and mutter something.

Matt Striker:
Tha-that was the most bizarre thing I've ever seen in my days here. I mean King those....holograms aren't people but...

Jerry Lawler:
But Bray Wyatt wherever he comes from needs to be locked away. How does a man think like that?

Matt Striker:
I have no idea King. Bray Wyatt however looks a force to be reckoned with here in the WWE.

The camera then shows Wyatt standing at the top of the ramp before we go to our commentary team.

Matt Striker:
In some respects I have to agree King, but on the other hand these two young stars took advantage of the newly formed opponents and used their experience in this division to become the champs.

The camera has now changed to the ring with Justin Roberts; he states that the following contest is for the WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS!

Jerry Lawler:
It’s time to find out if Rey and Cara have ironed out their mistakes and become the NEW Tag Team champions!

“BOOYAKA BOOYAKA”
*BOOYAKA BOOYAKA 619/ANCIENT SPIRIT*

And with that the masked superstars bound onto the stage, all whilst arrays of fireworks explode around them. The crowd are ecstatic for these two men looking to capture the Gold. Both men bound down to the ring and Sin Cara does his trademark leap over the top rope (Without Botching ) Rey on the other hand rolls under the bottom rope and into the ring before both men pose on adjacent turnbuckles. Both men now await their opponents whilst in the middle of the ring.

“YEAHHHHH, I’M KNOCKING AT THE DOOR”
*IN THE MIDDLE OF IT NOW*

Matt Striker:
Here they come King, the WWE Tag Team champs baby!

Despite Striker’s words there is no sign of our Champions, this is until a voice is heard bringing the music to a halt and the camera goes to the top of the titantron where Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins are stood with their titles around their waists. Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler are in awe as Hawkins begins to speak.

Curt Hawkins:
Now, now...now, Rey, Cara you can have the big fancy entrance with all of your fireworks but what you can’t have is the Tag Team ability me and T-Reks have. However we as the Tag Team champions deserve the best treatment including the best entrance.

*IN THE MIDDLE OF IT NOW*

And with that the music resumes before both men, Hawkins first and Reks second zip line down to the ring from the titantron. Curt at this point has taken his title belt from around his waist and has it held high above his head as he descends down into the ring. Close following him is Tyler Reks who just has a stern look on his face. Both men remove their safety harnesses and hand their titles to the official. The deliberation of who will begin the match for each team begins with Curt Hawkins and Sin Cara the men to start this match.

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
Tyler Reks & Curt Hawkins (c) vs. Sin Cara & Rey Mysterio

The bell chimes out throughout the arena to get us going here in this tag title bout. Hawkins and Cara stalk each other around the ring before Hawkins offers his hand out for a test of strength, Cara contemplates what to do and decides to take the offer only to be hit with a cheap kick to the gut as Curt has outsmarted the luchador here. Hawkins latches onto Cara’s arm before swinging him to the ropes and on the way back he attempts a clothesline Cara however ducks and continues the run to the other ropes before rebounding back and flying through the air with a hurricanrana, he goes for a cover. 1...Kickout. Cara is now back on the offense quickly as he twists Curt Hawkins arm before taking him to his team’s corner and tagging Rey Mysterio, much to the joy of the crowd. Cara still has Hawkins gripped as Rey climbs to the top rope and soars down landing to fists to Hawkins arm forcing him to scream out in pain. Rey using his size to his advantage then crawls between Hawkins legs and nails a kick to the hamstring from behind, dropkick to the back and Hawkins is in position for a 619! Rey begins to run towards him but stops in his tracks as Tyler Reks makes a tag on his partners shoulder making the big man, the legal man.

We all know Rey Mysterio as the biggest underdog and he sure looks it here as Tyler Reks saunters towards him with a look of pleasure on his face. Reks is trying to corner Rey however he is on the move permanently, he goes to grab Rey now but his attempt is unsuccessful as he dodges his advances and tries to mount Reks into a sleeper hold. With Rey on his back he easily uses his strength to swing him over and send him crashing into the mat. It looks as though Rey has some discomfort in his right knee which has also been noticed by Tyler Reks, he drags Mysterio to the ropes before grabbing his right leg and delivering an elbow straight down onto his knee. And another elbow, Tyler is showing real aggression here. He now makes a quick tag to Curt Hawkins and both men grab an arm of Mysterio, they whip him to the ropes and as he bounds back towards him they send him high into the air before bringing him straight back down with a double flapjack. Hawkins turns him over and hooks the inside leg. 1...2...Rey kicks out! Hawkins actually seems happy that Rey has kicked out as it allows him to punish the masked man some more, he gets to his feet and begins to wildly stomp at Rey’s right knee with Sin Cara frantically pacing the apron. Mysterio is trying to reach Cara but is nowhere near his partner.

Hawkins now drags Rey into the corner allowing Tyler Reks to slap his partner on the back, Curt with a hold of Rey’s right leg then lays down leaving Mysterio grounded whilst Reks delivers an elbow to the heart of Rey, he stands up before repeating the same elbow again. With the referee counting the champs Hawkins gets in his face before claiming they’ll do what they want before he exits the ring to the apron. This is a huge beating for Mysterio as Reks brings him to his feet like a rag doll before scooping him up onto his shoulders and delivering a huge powerslam, crushing Rey into the mat. Tyler now hooks Rey’s leg expecting victory. 1...2...Again Rey kicks out! Tyler thought he had Mysterio there as he sighs before picking Mysterio up to his feet and whipping him into the turnbuckle, he follows after him at speed and splashes into Rey. Reks backs off Mysterio who groggily walks out of the corner and into a near beheading clothesline that twists him inside out leaving him lying on his front. Reks pulls Mysterio’s leg high into the air now before slamming him knee first into the canvas to a loud bang. Reks quickly tags in Curt Hawkins who grabs Mysterio by his head and delivers a forearm to the chin, he quickly invites Reks to re enter the ring much to the referees dismay and Reks lifts Mysterio up onto his shoulders whilst Hawkins readies himself, they hit their powerslam neckbreaker combo that leaves Rey crashing into the mat. Tyler is quick to get back onto the apron as the referee sees to Sin Cara who is trying to enter the fray. With the referee distracted Hawkins and Reks bring Rey into the corner before smashing his right knee into the ring post. Hawkins quickly brings him into the centre of the ring before making a cover as the referee turns around, not having a clue that they’ve just bent the rules. 1...2...3! No! Rey kicks out. Hawkins is livid as Rey continues to fight on and he begins hammering away at Rey’s head before pulling up his pants on his right leg and ragging of his knee brace before throwing it to the outside. Matt Striker on commentary states that Rey has to wear that brace due to the damage on his knees but Hawkins has taken off his protection. Curt then turns Rey over onto his front and grabs his right leg, locking in a leg crab in the centre of the ring. Curt viciously wrenches back on Rey before putting all of his weight on his back by sitting on top of him. Sin Cara on the apron tries to get the crowd involved by clapping with the PNC arena joining in with his claps. Rey is trying to crawl but just doesn’t have it in him, will he tap? Hawkins seems to be tiring as he quickly stands back up with Rey’s leg hooked; Rey sees this as opportunity as he quickly tries to escape the hold, he nearly does which forces Hawkins to abandon the leg crab and just try to keep Rey in the ring, Rey gets up onto one leg whilst Hawkins has his other one firmly gripped, Rey goes for an enziguri but Hawkins ducks which leaves Rey tangled...Rey hits him with what could only be described as a reverse enziguri. Hawkins is down and Rey is crawling for the tag and Cara has his arm stretched out...HE MAKES IT! But so does Hawkins.

Here comes Cara, he vaults over the top rope and speeds into the oncoming Tyler Reks ducking under his clothesline attempt before springboarding off the ropes and spinning into a hurricanrana. Reks flies across the ring but quickly gets to his feet and is met with a dropkick to the chest that sends him back into the corner. Cara flies into Reks with a splash before spinning low and hitting a spinning kick to the back of the legs forcing Reks down to the mat. Cara climbs up top, Reks gets to his feet, CROSSBODY! The cover, 1...2...Tyler powers out! Sin Cara makes a tag to Rey Mysterio and he gingerly enters the ring, both men take a side of Tyler Reks and kick him ferociously, Rey then hits a dropkick to the back and Reks is in position for a 619! Here comes Curt Hawkins however who charges at Sin Cara who pulls the top rope down sending him to the outside. Cara quickly awaits Hawkins to get to his feet and charges towards the ropes...SUICIDE DIVE! WAI- WAIT NO! HAWKINS MOVED AND CARA GOES FLYING INTO THE BARRICADE!

Meanwhile in the ring, Rey is dialling it up and he hits the 619 to Reks, these two are the legal men! Although Reks is on his feet he is groggy as the referee sees to him. Rey climbs slowly to the top rope, BAM! Hawkins nails Mysterio with his knee brace that he took off before and Rey spirals down to the mat, Tyler quickly drags Rey to the middle of the ring and grabs his right leg over his shoulder, He locks in an over the shoulder single-leg Boston crab, it’s a move we’ve seen before in the WWE better known as the BROCK LOCK! The referee tries to get an answer from Mysterio but is left with no choice and rings the bell.

Winners and STILL WWE Tag Team Champions: Tyler Reks & Curt Hawkins via submission (12:54)

Matt Striker:
I told you King, I told you that there was no way that they were losing their titles tonight!

With that Hawkins and Reks embrace in the middle of the ring to some heat from the crowd. Hawkins demands for their titles which the official delivers to them before raising their hands. The camera then switches to the outside where Sin Cara is seeing to his friend Rey Mysterio.

Jerry Lawler:
They may have gotten away with it tonight Matt, they still had to cheat their way to victory over the high flying duo.

Matt Striker:
Ah come on King, these guys used great teamwork to keep Mysterio isolated for the whole match. They took advantage of a problem... that to me symbolises a great team.

We now have a shot of the pair at the top of the ramp, holding up their titles and trash talking the crowd.

Matt Striker:
There they are...your tag team champions.

From the arena we then cut backstage to the corridor, the camera moves across showing various WWE crew members before reaching a black door guarded by security. The door reads the name John Cena which gets a big pop from the crowd.

Matt Striker:
I don’t think we’re gonna’ get a camera in there; John Cena’s door has been guarded by security per the orders of Dylan Kelly here tonight.

Jerry Lawler:
That’s true Matt but we will see Cena later tonight when he takes on...

With a swift change we are now in the locker room of Triple H, again the crowd pops big as Hunter is sat on a bench taping his wrists.

Matt Striker:
And there’s Cena’s opponent, The King Of Kings, The Cerebral Assassin...The Game Triple H. He showed on Monday night that there is no way he’s losing his job here tonight.

The camera is now back at ringside focused on the stage.

*END OF DAYS*

WOW, major heat here for this man...Wade Barrett! He slowly wanders out onto the stage whilst his black blazer draped over his shoulders. Only to be flung to the side as he roars with anger.

Matt Striker:
What an athlete this man is King, a bare knuckle fighter and tonight maybe a submission specialist...?

Jerry Lawler:
I think his opponent is more of the specialist in submissions, let’s see how we got to this confrontation tonight.

The video opens showing highlights of Chris Jericho’s career. Starting with his WWE debut. The clock has begun the countdown with The Rock in the ring.

Jerry Lawler:
Hey, wait a minute.

Jerry Lawler:
It’s the millennium JR, 10.

The video then fast forwards to Jericho standing with his arms wide before turning to say.

Chris Jericho:
Welcome to RAW IS JERICHO!

The video has now fast forwarded two years to Unforgiven 2001. Jericho has Stone Cold in the ring with his leg hooked.

Jim Ross:
God tell me this can’t be happening.

The referee’s hand comes down for the three count.

Jim Ross:
Bah Gawd almighty, Jericho has done it.

The clip now fast forwards through numerous title victories for Jericho, this before stopping with him standing in the middle of the ring during the first episode of Monday night RAW in the Dylan Kelly era.

Chris Jericho:
I’ve done it all, and it’s time for the ‘Ayatollah of Rock n’ Rolla’ to say goodbye.

Shots of the crowd in shock are shown with them chanting Y2J, this before the music of Wade Barrett hits and he walks down to the ring. Whilst walking to the ring highlights of his career are shown. Starting with Barrett emerging from the back and onto the stage during a John Cena vs. CM Punk match on RAW.

Michael Cole:
Ladies and Gentleman, we have a visitor, we saw him earlier tonight that’s Wade Barrett. He is the winner of NXT season 1.

This clip now forwards onto the ring being dismantled by the members of Nexus with bodies everywhere. Before the clip moves onto where the Nexus assist Kane in burying The Undertaker.

Michael Cole:
Nexus?... What are they doing out here?

Although it’s not much of a highlight for Barrett we head into the confrontation between these two men.

Wade Barrett:
Jericho you’re not going anywhere, until I say you can.

With that Barrett near beheads Jericho with a clothesline as shots are shown of Barrett as Jericho’s NXT rookie. We now move onto Backlash 4 weeks ago where Jericho has Barrett locked in a Liontamer.

Matt Striker:
Jericho has got it locked in! Will he make his former rookie tap...

Barrett does eventually tap to the delight of the crowd.

Matt Striker:
He does!

Jericho celebrates wildly as Barrett is now shown the next night on RAW.

Wade Barrett:
That’s right; I did tap out last night. But I could just as easily make Jericho submit anytime...

Wade Barrett’s devastating submission move the Barrett Clutch is now shown with Jericho tapping out to it in the middle of the ring.

Wade Barrett:
Any place...

Again Barrett has the hold applied this time by the announcers table.

Wade Barrett:
Anywhere.

The words of Dylan Kelly now ring out.

Dylan Kelly:
At Judgement Day it will be...Wade Barrett vs. Chris Jericho!

The delighted fans are shown gleefully dancing and cheering.

Dylan Kelly:
No count outs, no disqualifications...no pinfalls.

Wade Barrett has a look of confusion on his face.

Dylan Kelly:
Submissions...Count...Anywhere!

The video now shows various brawls between Barrett and Jericho with Always by Saliva playing in the background. The video concludes with Barrett and Jericho nose to nose...

Dylan Kelly:
No count outs, no disqualifications...no pinfalls.
SUBMISSIONS COUNT ANYWHERE!

As our video concludes we are back ringside with Wade Barrett standing in the centre of the ring with a smug smile across his face. The lights in the arena dim down before a clock appears on the titantron, it’s counting down!

*BREAK THE WALLS DOWN*

An array of pyro is set off around the stage with the capacity crowd in ecstasy, there he is! Chris Jericho stands at the top of the stage with his arms spread out wide before he turns around and swaggers down towards the ring.

Matt Striker:
I can’t wait for this King, these two behemoths going at it!

As Striker finishes Jericho enters the ring, there is now egging the crowd on from Jericho tonight as he means business. Justin Roberts stands in the centre of the ring explaining the rules of this match before introducing both competitors. Referee Charles Robinson is ready, Chris Jericho is ready and Wade Barrett is ready.

Submissions Count Anywhere Match
Wade Barrett vs. Chris Jericho

The bell is rung and we’re underway here, this place is electric with a big fight atmosphere. Both men head towards the centre of the ring and have a stare down nose to nose, trash talking each other. Barrett is the first to fire as he slaps Jericho across the face, with a huge grin on his chops. Jericho takes down Barrett and begins hammering away, punches flying at the skull of Wade here. Jericho is relentless, hammering down with real force. Eventually Jericho gets onto his feet and brings Barrett up onto his also, he swings Wade to the ropes but is nailed with a shoulder block as he comes back towards him that knocks Jericho flat on his back. Wade chuckles to himself before running to the ropes himself only for Jericho to leap frog over him and as he runs back he is nailed with a back body drop.

Barrett immediately gets onto his feet, WOOOOOO! Knife edge chop to Barrett’s chest, WOOOOOO! WOOOOOO! WOOOOOO! Jericho is relentless with these chops making Wade’s chest pink. Barrett has been worked into the corner by Jericho who backs off him, enziguri to the side of the head forcing Barrett to fall to the outside through the middle rope. Barrett is stirring on the outside and BAM! He turns into a baseball slide from Jericho, who is followed to the outside by Charles Robinson. Wade leans on the steel steps to capture his thoughts for a moment but here comes Jericho again, NO! Barrett whilst kneeling pulls Jericho by his tights into the ring post forcing his head into the steel. Barrett needs to take advantage here and he is scouring underneath the ring for some weaponry, he pulls out a Kendo Stick with a sick grin on his face. Jericho groggily gets to his feet and turns to see Barrett with the Stick in hand, this is brief as Barrett swings for Jericho’s head...He ducks underneath, now backing up towards the steel steps...BANG! The sound of the Kendo Stick smashing against the steel steps is heard as Jericho has dodged another attempt from Barrett. We’re now slowly making our way towards the announcers with Jericho backing away from the weapon wielding Barrett, he swings again, NOOOO! Barrett outsmarted Jericho and changed the position of his strike mid way through, smacking Jericho in the ribs forcing him to keel over. He’s got him right where he wants him now, BAM! Barrett smacks the kneeling Jericho right on the head as he now flops to the ground. He places the Kendo Stick now just inside the ring, Barrett’s going for the clutch as he tries to seat himself on Jericho’s back, he’s wriggling to get free though...he does! And Barrett charges at him, drop toe hold! Barrett smashes face first into the announce table, knocking papers everywhere. What is Jericho doing? He climbs up onto the apron with his back to Barrett, he isn’t gonna? Lionsault towards Barrett...HE CAUGHT HIM! Barrett caught Jericho and has him on his shoulder, no no no...Barrett charges and smacks Jericho skull first into the ring post before dropping him onto the floor.

Jericho’s body is a mess after barely five minutes here, Barrett is wasting little time as he throws Jericho into the ring but drags him towards the bottom turnbuckle, Barrett now heads for the outside..What’s this!? Barrett pulls Jericho with one arm around his face and another on his leg and pulls him into the ring post, wrenching his back into the steel, this is a submission manoeuvre! Jericho is screaming in pain as Barrett uses all his might to pull Jericho messing up his spine. He’s gonna tap, surely he’s gonna have to. Jericho is reaching for the Kendo Stick however that Barrett placed in the ring moments ago, stretching his fingers as far as they can go...YES! He has got the Kendo Stick and he tries swinging behind him for Barrett who dodges the strikes with hold still applied. Smart from Jericho, he uses the Kendo Stick to smack the arm that Barrett has around his face forcing him to release the hold. Barrett has backed off clutching his arm in pain as Jericho tries to recover. He does and he exits under the bottom rope towards Barrett, BAM! Shot to the arm with the Kendo Stick and another! Clothesline from Jericho. Wait a second; he’s going for his arm...ARMBAR! Jericho has Barrett in an arm bar on the outside! These men are taking full advantage of the stipulation set here as Barrett tries to claw away in pain but Jericho has his arm locked! What strength here, what strength! Barrett is slowly getting to his feet with Jericho still holding onto his arm...Barrett has a fully grown man up in the air using one arm, he swings all of his weight around...BAM! Jericho is slammed into the side of the announce table forcing him to let go immediately. Jericho’s down and Barrett is exhausted as he falls to one knee.

Barrett finally regains his breath and he brings Jericho onto his feet with a hand on Jericho’s head dragging him around. Barrett now picks Jericho up as if he were carrying someone over his shoulder from a burning fire, he heads towards the barricade where all the fans begin the usual touching of the superstars...GUILLOTINE! Jericho wraps his arm around Barrett’s neck and his legs around his mid section, he’s got it locked in!

.....
.....
.....

Barrett is fading but he won’t tap here, Jericho is using all of his force to try and make his nemesis but to no avail...Barrett is regaining something, he is moving slowly but surely...he has prized Jericho’s arm from around his neck...HE’S GOT HIM ON HIS SHOULDERS! WASTELAND! WASTELAND OVER THE BARRICADE AND INTO THE CROWD! JERICHO FALLS HARD ONTO THE FLOOR! What a contest here, Jericho is down amongst the crowd either side of him as Wade is checked on by Charles Robinson. Here we go, Barrett climbs over the barricade and both men are now amongst the crowd! Wade slowly bends down like a pensioner before he brings Jericho to his feet and hammers him with a huge right hand, sending him backwards towards the stairs. Barrett follows on and hits yet another right hand, this time Jericho falls onto the stairs. He’s up though and Barrett grabs hold of his head, OOO! Barrett smashes Jericho face first in the rail separating either side of the stairs. The camera has picked up Jericho’s bloody nose here, WE HAVE BLOOD! Wade is taking no nonsense now as he grabs Jericho and heads up the steps dragging him behind with Y2J falling onto his knees before slowly stumbling back to his feet. They’ve reached the top of the stairs and are now faced with a set of double doors, each with a large panel of glass in them.

What’s he thinking!? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Barrett launches Jericho...SMASH! Jericho goes flying through one of the panels on the door, the camera switches to one which sees Jericho down with pieces of glass scattered around him, these men are now in the concession area, the fans heading back to their seats have stopped and have front row tickets to the action here. Barrett has wandered now through the door to see Jericho lying in pieces of glass and he isn’t done here. Barrett shouts at the fans in spitting distance that it’s over as he tries to move Jericho’s dead weight onto his feet. Jericho is definitely busted open now with blood pouring from his face, dripping onto his chest with some also on Barrett’s hands. Barrett is taunting Jericho, he props him onto his feet only to let him go so he falls flat onto the ground. Judging by his evil laughter I’d say he’s enjoying this. His eyes suddenly light up as the merchandise stand comes into view, with a table scattered with t-shirts and a glass case with what looks like an action figure enclosed in it. And behind is the brown wooden board that has t-shirts pinned onto it. Barrett drags Jericho’s limp body towards the stand before letting him drop to the floor. He notices a retro “RAW IS JERICHO” t-shirt and he picks it up before saying “Not anymore”. He places the t-shirt over his shoulder before he runs his hands across the table clearing all the merchandise off it, only the glass case remains on the edge of the table.

He now props Chris up with the table keeping him there and he puts the shirt over Jericho’s head and places his arms into the correct positions. Barrett now hoists him up onto his shoulders...WASTEL-Jericho is firing elbows at Wade whilst up in the air, he’s trying to escape his arms, he does as he stands on the opposite side of the table. Barrett turns rapidly and goes for a punch to the other side of the table, SMASH! Jericho grabs the glass case and places it in front of his face as Barrett nearly smashes his right hand into smithereens. He backs off from the table and yelps in pain as the fans around the concession area go crazy. Jericho steps up onto the concession table before slowly removing the t-shirt Barrett put on him showing his bloody chest. He looks at the shirt before letting out a brief grin, Barrett turns back towards him as Jericho flings the shirt in Barrett’s face and hooks his arm over the blinded Barrett’s neck...TORNADO DDT! Right onto this shiny floor! The crack of Barrett’s skull was emphatic as we show a replay of the devastating DDT. Both men are down however Jericho is slowly but surely getting to his feet, Barrett is now busted open too! Matt Striker puts over how brutal this match has been whilst Jericho drags Barrett across the floor, he stops in his tracks though and hammers Barrett with a few punches to the head just for good measure before continuing to drag the Brit. They slowly reach what looks to be a food stand where Jericho stops and brings Barrett to his feet, BAM! Jericho smacks Barrett’s head against the stand as he falls to the floor. Jericho’s got his legs, he’s turned him over...WALLS OF JERICHO!

The walls are locked in, in the middle of the arena and Barrett has nowhere to go! His arm is raised high into the air...NO! He hasn’t tapped.

...
...
...

Still Barrett doesn’t submit as Jericho wrenches back his legs, how is he not giving in!? He uses all of his strength to swing his legs around and Jericho is sent flying! The jeers of the crowd are enormous as both men are down several metres either side of each other. Barrett has escaped those Walls Of Jericho! Wade begins to slowly move about and begins to crawl towards a set of doors heading back into the crowd. He just gets to those doors but is still flat out on his front as Chris Jericho is now up to his feet, slowly wandering after Barrett. Wade gets to his feet and opens the doors before stumbling through them, we are back now in the crowd! Jericho is now through the doors and follows Barrett who looks as though he is unaware of where he is even going, never mind Jericho being on his tail. He gets to him, Jericho gets to him and clobbers him from behind forcing him to stumble down a couple of steps, these men have been going at it for 20 minutes here. Barrett has now reached the bottom of the stairs and Jericho is not too far behind here, he and Barrett are now by the barricade again, in amongst the fans. Jericho smacks Barrett with a huge left hand and Barrett falls onto his back but quickly gets back up, these men are heading left now towards the stage going through the numerous amount of WWE fans. They’ve reached the end of the barricade as Jericho charges towards Wade clothesline over the barricade and onto the floor adjacent to the stage. Jericho needs to catch his breath for a moment which he does before hopping over the barricade and heading towards Barrett who has just got to his feet, Barrett is trying to escape from Jericho as he climbs up and onto the stage, the other side of where the huge WWE logo stands. Jericho is up after him though and both men are on the stage. Ouch, Barrett hits Jericho with a kick to the gut and BAM! He launches him into the curvetron, Jericho stumbles down and Barrett is now after him, SLEEPER HOLD! Barrett has Jericho in a sleeper hold, he drags him down onto the ground with the crowd anxiously chanting Y2J! The referee has hold of Jericho’s arm.

1!

...
...

2! Jericho’s arm drops for a 2nd time.

...
...
...
3, NO! Jericho keeps his arm up high!

Barrett has a look of fear on his face as Jericho is slowly making onto his feet, Barrett tries to hold on but Jericho is up with Barrett on his back. He launches him over his head and onto the ramp where Barrett rolls down towards the ring. Jericho stands at the top of the stage to a huge ovation as he looks around to the fans, he beats his chest hard before he begins to walk down the ramp after Barrett, Wade is down by the apron and has just dragged a black steel chair out, he slides it into the ring whilst he is down on the outside. Here is Jericho who throws Wade under the bottom rope and into the ring. Wade has picked up the chair and has it where Chris can’t see it, Jericho enters the ring and twists Barrett round, BAM-NO! Jericho ducks the chair shot, CODEBREAKER! Jericho hits a Codebreaker, Barrett is out of it. Great ring awareness by Jericho to dodge that chair shot especially in his current condition. Jericho knows it’s submissions only here, he drags Wade into the centre of the ring, he’s got him over onto his front...LIONTAMER! It’s locked in and Barrett has nowhere to go, Jericho’s knee drives into the back of his head as he frantically waves his arms about. The crowd are in ecstasy they know what’s coming.

...
...
...
...
...

It’s not coming! Barrett is somehow withstanding the pain here and he has reached out to grab the Steel Chair he brought into play, he pushes with one of his arms to get some height before he spins around and onto his back. Jericho still has his le-OOOOOOOOOOOO! Barrett unleashes a chair shot from the ground up to Jericho hitting him square in the forehead, Jericho obviously falls straight back into the mat as Barrett moves backwards towards the turnbuckle. What is he doing now, Barrett gets onto his feet before opening up the chair and grabbing Chris Jericho’s legs. He places them through the gap in the back of the chair before pulling his lifeless corpse through it until it reaches his chest. Barrett sits on his back and hooks his neck between his arm and the top of the chair as Barrett sits on the chair. BARRETT CLUTCH! Jericho’s body being pulled back into that chair, Charles Robinson is asking the questions here as Barrett roars. Jericho’s arm is slowly waving about...

JERICHO TAPS OUT!

Winner: Wade Barrett via submission (27:57)​

 

[The Cult]

Matt Striker:
What...a...match King!

Jerry Lawler:
Well I didn’t expect that brutality, I don’t think Chris Jericho will ever be the same again. What a feather this is in Barrett’s cap.

With End Of Days blasting on the PA system Wade Barrett stands by the ring ropes, admiring his handy work as the bloodied Chris Jericho is down in the ring being attended to by Charles Robinson. On commentary Matt Striker puts over the performance of Wade Barrett as the man himself now exits the ring.

Matt Striker:
Wade did exactly what he said he would King, make Jericho tap!

We get one final shot of Barrett at the top of the ramp before we cut out to a video.

An eerie red cloud of smoke is taking up the arena whilst the maniacal laugh of a certain “Big Red Machine” echoes out.

Kane:
A bounty? Nobody puts a bounty on me!

Kane chokeslams several opponents with incredible force.

Kane:
Alberto Del Rio thinks he can put a bounty on me!

Kane now sits alone in a dark room.

Kane:
Alberto thinks he can outsmart me! I am the Devil’s favourite demon, one of the most intimidating creatures to ever step into the WWE!

Kane’s aggression is now known.

Kane:
This Sunday I become Intercontinental champion! I take back control!

Kane grabs the camera before bringing it up close to his masked face.

Kane:
I RESSURECT THE MONSTER!

The video then fades out with Kane’s laughter echoing.

Jerry Lawler:
That is one angry monster!

Matt Striker:
Well the time is upon us, Alberto must now take on Kane to defend his gold. Kane has been Intercontinental champion before and he wants to hold the prestigious gold again.

Jerry Lawler:
A prestige which Del Rio has weakened by hiring people to take out Kane.

BOOM

The audience jump with fright but then begin to cheer as they know who is coming. The lights dim to a dark mysterious red and the smoke begins to gather at the top of the stage.

*VEIL OF FIRE*

Matt Striker:
Here we go, time for business to pick up between these two men.

With that Kane appears at the top of the stage wearing his welders like mask. The smoke clouds around him before he slowly walks down to the ring. His huge presence gets a huge pop from the fans in attendance as he approaches the bottom of the ramp Matt Striker cries out.

Matt Striker:
Hey, WAIT A MINUTE!

Kane is clobbered from behind by Alberto Del Rio using his Intercontinental title belt as a weapon. Kane is trying to recover but Del Rio is on him like a flash as he sends him into the steel steps. Kane is left laying whilst Del Rio picks up the steps.

Matt Striker:
Don’t do it!

Del Rio smashes the steel steps onto Kane’s right arm as the monster screams out in pain. Del Rio rolls into the ring and wants the referee to start this match; he declines however and exits the ring to help Kane on the outside. The monster however doesn’t want help as he shoves the referee to the side before entering the ring chasing down Del Rio, cornering him and beating him down. The referee re enters the ring and calls for the start of this match.

Intercontinental Championship
Kane vs. Alberto Del Rio (C)

The brawl is ensuing as Kane is clobbering away at Del Rio, using only his left hand due to the attack before the match. The referee is counting Kane who stops his attack before grabbing Del Rio and tossing him across the ring, his title belt falls from around his waist in mid air as the referee grabs it and passes it to the outside. Kane takes this opportunity now to remove his outer mask to a big pop as his red mask is revealed. He clutches at his arm momentarily before charging at Del Rio but no he meets the turnbuckle as the Mexican aristocrat gets outta’ dodge.

Del Rio is on Kane like a flash, punching him in the injured arm several times. He’s trying to bring Kane down but he’s having a tough job of it with Kane refusing to go. Del Rio whips Kane into the ropes but is met with a clothesline from the monster as he returns. He is quickly swept up to his feet by Kane and is then hammered in the corner of the ring with punches to the body. WOW! Kane near beheads Del Rio with an uppercut, he backs away and charges...Del Rio is crushed into the turnbuckle! Del Rio staggers out of the corner into Kane’s arms, Sidewalk Slam! Kane hooks the leg. 1...2...Del Rio gets his shoulder up!

Kane is taking it to Del Rio here tonight and he’s heading for the top rope. He struggles to climb each rung due to Del Rio’s pre-match attack but he eventually gets there. He sits perched for a few seconds, waiting for Del Rio to get up and he’s up. Kane launches himself from the top rope but NO! Del Rio hits Kane with an Arm Wringer in mid air, Kane’s in agony as he rolls around the canvas holding onto his right arm. Del Rio scampers over and he hooks the leg. 1...2...Kane powers out, throwing Del Rio across the ring.

Del Rio has got control now, he kicks Kane in the arm with power. Del Rio cracks a grin and it looks as though he has a plan. He grabs Kane by his arm and drags him across to the corner of the ring, he rolls under the bottom rope and he smashes Kane’s arm into the steel ring post. Alberto is relentless as he continually smacks Kane’s arm about near tearing it out of its socket. Kane rolls back into the centre of the ring with his shrieks of pain audible, Alberto just soaks up the jeers on the outside before he gets back into the ring. Kane uses great ring awareness to keep himself out of the corner to stop Del Rio’s offense. He is up to his feet but turns into a right hand from the champ, now Del Rio whips Kane into the ropes and on the way back he nails him with a picture perfect drop kick, square on the chin. Del Rio makes a pin, 1...2...Kane kicks out!

Del Rio wastes little time, he knows he needs to stay on top of Kane here. He brings him to his feet and takes him to the ropes before pulling his arm around the rope and wrenching it back causing huge pain for his opponent. The referee gets to a count of 4 before Del Rio releases Kane. He is unhappy with the referee counting him and he calls him a “perro” UH-OH! Del Rio turns around and Kane grabs him by the throat, he’s up but no Del Rio breaks Kane’s grasp, BACKSTABBER! Del Rio drives his knees into Kane’s spine. Del Rio uses this time to catch some breath as he leans on the ropes, the crowd pops huge as behind Del Rio...Kane has sat up! OUCH! The crowd turned out to be helpful to Del Rio there as he turns around and nails Kane with a kick to the face. Del Rio hooks both legs. 1...2...Kane gets his shoulder up! Armbar! Del Rio has locked Kane in an Armbar! Will Kane submit?

Kane is crawling with only his left hand, Alberto has him screaming which we rarely see from Kane. He edges towards the ropes...Kane gets to the ropes! His dream is still alive of coming Intercontinental champion. He uses the ropes to help him get to his feet but Alberto grabs him from behind, German suplex! Del Rio mustered up the strength to hit that German from behind. Alberto has momentum now and he is heading for the top rope something he rarely does. He jumps from high up and nails Kane with a splash, WAIT A MINUTE! He didn’t Kane has grabbed Del Rio by the throat, he gets up to his feet and lifts Del Rio high up, CHOKESLAM! Kane makes a cover. 1...2...3, NO! Del Rio kicked out!

UH-OH Kane is calling for a Tombstone, he slices his throat to the crowd’s delight. Is this the end? Del Rio is up, Kane scoops him onto his shoulders. Wait a minute! RICARDO RODRIGUEZ! Del Rio’s ring announcer jumps over the barricade from the crowd wearing his trademark tuxedo with a lead pipe in hand. Rodriguez enters the ring and he desperately claws Del Rio from Kane’s shoulders, he swings the pipe for Kane’s head but misses, Kane has got Rodriguez by the throat as he drops the lead pipe, Chokeslam to Rodriguez! Del Rio has got the pipe and he nails Kane right across the skull! The referee has no choice but to call for the bell.

Winner: Kane via disqualification (9:12) However STILL Intercontinental Champion Alberto Del Rio.

Jerry Lawler:
Damn that Rodriguez! Kane had this match nearly wrapped up and now come on look at this!

Del Rio meanwhile in the ring has slapped on more punishment with that lead pipe, hitting two shots to the ribs. Del Rio now exits the ring and snatches his Intercontinental title whilst Justin Roberts confirms despite Kane is victorious Del Rio remains the champion. Del Rio now runs up the ramp leaving Kane and Rodriguez down in the ring.

Jerry Lawler:
And now look at him Matt, high tailing it out of harm’s way!

Matt Striker:
King, for all we know Del Rio mightn’t have known about Rodriguez being here tonight. Rodriguez might have been getting some revenge of his own after Kane assaulted him with those chains a couple of weeks ago.

Jerry Lawler:
You really expect me to believe that Matt?

Big pop from the crowd, Kane has sat up! He is furious as he stands up and stomps around in frustration as Alberto looks on from the top of the ramp. Kane exits the ring and trashes the steel steps about with ease before he notices Rodriguez is getting to his feet in the ring. Kane picks up the steps and heads back in with them.

Matt Striker:
Come on Kane, he’s not a wrestler here!

BAM! Kane smashes the steps off Rodriguez’s skull to a big cheer. He’s not done here, he slices his throat and he’s going to punish Ricardo. Kane scoops up Ricardo, oh god not on the steps...TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER ON THE STEEL STEPS! Kane rushes back to his feet as our commentary team cry out in shock. Kane turns to look at Alberto before he raises his arms and summons a loud BOOM as his pyro comes out of the corners. The red lights take over the arena as Kane stares down Del Rio from the ring.

Matt Striker:
I’ve got to say that is a disgrace, Ricardo is just a ring announcer!

Jerry Lawler:
An announcer who got involved where he shouldn’t have.

Matt Striker:
He was just standing up for himself King; I’d like to think if that was you, you would do the same thing.

The camera now shows Ricardo being helped out of the ring by our medical staff. We now go to our backstage interviewer Josh Matthews, who stands alongside, AW, Mark Henry, Darren Young and Titus O’Neill.

Josh Matthews:
Good evening ladies and gentleman, please welcome my guests at this time, All World promotions, AW, Darren Young and Titus O’Neill the Prime Time Players and “The World’s Strongest Man” Mark Henry.

The crowd jeer as the four men stand proudly next to Josh; make that three as Henry just has an intimidating look on his face. AW wears a black tracksuit customized with AW promotions written across it.

Josh Matthews:
Gentleman in just a few minutes you take on R-Truth, Evan Bourne, Booker T and the man you’ve been trying to recruit for weeks Kofi Kingston.

The crowd pop big for those names as AW now speaks.

AW:
That’s right, that’s right. Tha’ boy Kofi has potential to be great. I’ma make the Prime Time Players champions, the World’s Strongest man Mark Henry a champion and if he took my kind offer Kofi Kingston a champion.

Josh Matthews:
That’s all well and good but Kofi has turned down your advances stating he’s not in it for money like you.

AW:
Whoa watch your tone Josh, I’m not here for me, I’m here for these guys behine’ me. If I make money whilst doin’ tha’ it’s all good. This is my final offer, I don’t know if Kofi is watching this but he gonna’ get hurt out there. So Kofi if I were you I’d seriously consider my offer.

Josh Matthews:
Ok, what is your opinion on you being placed into this match alongside Kofi’s team manager Booker T. A man who wants his hands on you?

AW:
Booker T? Booker T!? I don’t give a damn about Booker T. Ya’ see I’ve got enough here to deal with Booker T. R-Truth is just...just crazy and what is Evan Bourne gonna’ do? Flip around a little bit? So we got a hasbin, a crazy dude and a cruiserweight against World’s Strongest Man Mark Henry, the future tag team champions the Prime Time Players, D-Young and Titus O’Neill and ME! The money makin’ scholar AW. Come on fellas.

With that the four men bounce off screen and we go back to ringside.

Matt Striker:
Well what a night it’s been thus far King, if I were Kofi Kingston I’d take AW’s offer. I mean look what he’s accomplished so far is phenomenal but I think he could do so much more.

Jerry Lawler:
I think you might be as deluded as AW.

Big heat in the arena as AW appears at the top of the stage with his microphone behind his ear as he begins to speak.

AW:
Good evening ladies and gentleman of the WWE. My name is AW and I am the owner of All World promotions and now I would like to introduce to you your future WWE Tag Team champions. Hashtags Millions o’ dollars, hashtag money makin’ scholars. Them boys gonna’ bring a noise to a slayer, Darren Young and Titus O’Neill the Prime Time Players!

*MOVE (GET IT IN)*

Here they come, D-Young and Titus O’Neill come out from the back and swagger down to the ring to some heat. They enter the ring and begin to chant millions o’ dollars as they dance around. The music cuts out as we go back to AW at the top of the stage.

AW:
And now I’d like to introduce to you, the baddest man in the WWE. The man who tonight will be making some bookings into the Hall Of Pain. The world’s strongest man, Mark Henry!

*SOMEBODIES GONNA’ GET IT*

Even more heat now as Mark Henry struts down the stage with AW walking alongside him. Henry means business as he enters the ring before his partners pat him on the back.

“Can You Dig It Suckaaaaaaa?”
*RAP SHEET*

What an ovation, the four partners bound out onto the stage as Matt Striker talks up Booker T’s in-ring return here. All four superstars full of beans head to the ring and enter. All of their opponents bar Henry exit the ring as they debate who will begin the match. Eventually Henry exits to all Young in, he and Kofi will be getting us going here.

8 Man Tag Team Match
Booker T, R-Truth, Evan Bourne & Kofi Kingston vs. Mark Henry, AW, Darren Young & Titus O’Neill

And we’re away here; Kofi is motioning for Young to tag in AW who he wants his hands on and the cocky manager obliges by asking for the tag which he receives. AW enters the fray and gets in Kofi’s face saying take my offer by extending his hand out to Kofi who looks him up and down. After much deliberation Kofi nails AW with a punch to the jaw knocking him down, he quickly backs up to his corner and tags the big man Mark Henry. Henry enters the ring but Kofi is straight on him hammering away at his face, he tries to whip Henry but to no avail as Mark stands static before he brings Kofi towards him and lifts him high up over his head and drops him to the mat. Henry quickly brings him to his feet and launches him across the ring like a rag doll. Evan Bourne slaps Kofi on the shoulder and he wants a crack at the big man.

Evan looks afraid as he enters the ring but he suddenly charges right at Henry only to be sent flying back towards his corner after a headbutt to the chest, Truth wants to take the next opportunity as he tags Bourne on the shoulder. Truth’s approach is different as he walks straight up to Henry and slaps him across the face angering Henry who clobbers him to the ground with a clothesline. Henry then runs to the ropes and hits a big splash on his way back to his opponent. He makes a cover. 1...2...Truth kicks out. Henry drags Truth to his respective corner and tags in Darren Young. The young man enters the ring and stomps on Truth along with Henry who exits before the 5 count. Young brings Truth to his feet and whips him to the ropes before nailing him with a forearm smash to the jaw. Young makes a tag to Titus O’Neill who climbs to the 2nd rope, Young nails Truth with a backbreaker keeping him in place as O’Neill hits an elbow from the top.

Titus isn’t going for a cover instead he lays an elbow onto Truth’s chest. The crowd are doing their best to will Truth back into this but Titus has him grounded in a sleeper hold. Booker T on the apron leads the claps for Truth and it seems to be working, Truth is working up to his feet. He elbows Titus in the gut forcing him to be freed and nails him with a right hand, and now a left. Truth runs to the ropes but NO! Henry on the apron clobbers Truth from behind, he is holding onto his head as he drops to one knee. OUCH, Titus barges Truth down to the mat with force as he now hooks the leg. 1...2...NO! Truth is still alive.

O’Neill makes a tag now to D-Young who enters the ring and stomps away at Truth, he drags him onto his feet and lifts him high onto his shoulders, rolling fireman’s carry slam! Truth is crushed by Young. Darren has dragged Truth into his corner now and made the tag to big Mark Henry. He enters the ring and he’s heading for the corner. He staggers onto the 2nd rope and he prepares to jump, SLINGSHOT SPLA-NO! Truth moved out of the way, Henry hits the deck like a bomb! Truth is crawling towards Booker T and Kofi Kingston who has got onto the apron after recovering. TAG! Booker is in! Henry has also tagged in Titus O’Neill who runs into a big right hand from Booker, Darren Young now enters also to get smacked with a high kick. Evan Bourne is up and he’s heading for the top rope, AIR BOURNE! Evan hits it on Young, both men roll to the outside. Here comes Mark Henry, he is up and going for Booker. Kick to the gut from Booker, SCISSORS KICK! Booker sits in the middle of the ring; the fans know what is coming. SPINAROONIE! Booker spins around with a huge smile on his face. O’Neill however has crawled to the corner and made a tag to AW! AW wants nothing to do with Booker but he is soon grabbed and flung over the top rope and into the ring. Kofi enters the ring alongside Booker and he wants a piece of AW. He and Booker grab AW and nail him with a double suplex. Kofi is calling for the Trouble In Paradise, he claps his hands as the crowd chant along with him, AW is getting to his feet. Titus O’Neill is trying to stop it but the legal man Booker T turns to him and knocks him down and out of the ring with a right hand. WAIT! WAIT A MINUTE! TROUBLE IN PARADISE TO BOOKER T!!!!!! WHAT HAS KOFI DONE!?

Kofi lets out an evil grin to AW, he has taken his offer! AW crawls over to Booker T and makes a pin whilst Kofi watches, 1...2...3!

Winners: Mark Henry, AW, Titus O’Neill & Darren Young (8:43)​

 

[The Cult]

Jerry Lawler:
Kofi Kingston!? What have you done?

Matt Striker’s laughing cannot be retained as he speaks.

Matt Striker:
What a great business decision King, Kofi has just taken a huge stride in his career.

As *MOVE* hits around the arena AW and Kofi Kingston stand alongside each other, this before the pair shake hands and share a hug. The other members of All World are now in the ring battered and bruised but they are thrilled about Kofi joining them. Mark Henry shows no expression as he stands behind the four men who all raise each other’s hands. A Kofi sucks chant is heard around the arena but the theme music has drowned them out.

Jerry Lawler:
I’m in shock Matt, dya’ think this has been planned all along?

Matt Striker:
Well if it has been they played it to perfection!

The camera cuts to the group who are now standing at the top of the ramp, in the ring Evan Bourne and R-Truth are disgusted whilst they check on Booker.

Jerry Lawler:
This is a damn disgrace; Booker was here to help Kofi. I’m in shock.

Matt Striker:
I am too King but I think it is gonna’ lead to the rise of Kofi Kingston in the WWE. This kids a future WWE champion!

With that the camera cuts backstage were CM Punk appears sporting his MiTB 2011 attire along with his white Best In The World t-shirt carrying his WWE title to a huge pop.

Jerry Lawler:
Well speaking of WWE champions here is the champ! CM Punk, he defends his title in a huge test against The Miz and Sheamus.

Matt Striker:
This is gonna’ be huge, one of Punk’s biggest tests is next, let’s see how we got to this position here tonight.

Narrator:
A rebel...

The static from Punk’s theme kicks us off as Cult Of Personality plays in the background. Punk delivers several Go To Sleep’s on various opponents.

Narrator:
A champion...

Punk’s Money in The Bank cash in victories are shown alongside his title wins at Mitb 2011 and Survivor Series 2011. The video goes static before it returns with Punk sat on the stage during his shoot.

CM Punk:
I am the best in the world!

Suddenly the video fades to black before...

The Miz:
Because I’m The Miz and I’m Awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

The Miz is shown with his biggest career win yet over John Cena at Wrestlemania XXVII.

The Miz:
I am the most must see WWE champion in history!

Fast forward to Miz and Punk in the ring.

The Miz:
And it’s time I’m champion again Punk. I’m gonna’ take you out like I did to Christian at Backlash, that title belongs to ME!

Here is Sheamus though, his various Brogue Kicks are shown on opponents before he speaks to Miz.

Sheamus:
Ya’ see fella, I have yet to have my rematch for the dubya dubya ee title and I plan on using it at Judgement Day!

The video forwards now to Miz vs. Sheamus where if Miz won he would get into the title match at the ppv.

Punk is hurdled into by Sheamus due to Miz, Punk enters the ring and nails Sheamus with a GTS. Miz gets the win.

Matt Striker:
Miz wins! Triple Threat at Judgement Day.

The video forwards now where Miz beats Punk in a non title match and then Sheamus beats Punk.

Matt Striker:
Josh this match is in the balance, Sheamus and Miz have both pinned Punk! Who is gonna’ walk out with the title at Judgement Day!?

The video ends with the three men in a staredown, Punk has his title held high in the air.

“AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE”
*I CAME TO PLAY*

The Miz bounces out onto the stage to some big heat. Matt Striker says he fancies him to win this match here tonight whilst Jerry Lawler disagrees. Justin Roberts continues his introduction as Miz wearing his trench coat runs and poses on the apron. This is before he enters the ring and poses on the top turnbuckle. He gets down and stands in the corner before the static goes off to a huge ovation.

*CULT OF PERSONALITY*

Matt Striker:
Here he is King, the WWE champion CM Punk!

Punk sits at the top of the ramp, he checks the time and you guessed it, IT’S CLOBBERIN’ TIME! Punk strolls down to the ring with the gold around his waist; he stands on the apron and takes the acclaim of the fans before heading to the top rope. Punk mimics a crossbow firing at Miz who isn’t impressed; he then takes his title from around his waist and raises it high above his head.

*WRITTEN IN MY FACE*

Another huge pop as Sheamus appears at the top of the stage. He beats his chest wildly and taps his waist signalling for the gold. He enters the ring now to more cheers from the fans, there is no pose from him as he clearly is in the zone. Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler can’t wait for this to kick off as Jack Doan holds the title high into the air. He passes it to the timekeeper and we’re ready to go.

WWE Championship
The Miz vs. CM Punk (c) vs. Sheamus

The bell sounds and we’re underway here, all three men size each other up before Miz exits the ring to some big heat. Punk turns around to stare at Miz who sports a cheeky grin meanwhile Sheamus clobbers the champ from behind. Sheamus whips Punk to the ropes but misses a clothesline he then turns around to Punk who is stood still with his hand extended to Sheamus. Sheamus gazes around the fans before accepting the handshake, to his own mistake as Punk nails him with a forearm to the jaw, Punk now whips Sheamus into the ropes but he is met with a shoulder block that takes him down, Sheamus again runs at the ropes only for Punk to lay down under him forcing him to jump over him. Sheamus rebounds back once more and Punk goes for a hip toss, only for Sheamus to counter and hit a hip toss of his own. He makes a cover, 1...Punk kicks out with ease.

Miz is still keeping watch from the outside which Striker calls smart strategy, meanwhile in the ring Sheamus brings Punk to his feet and whips him to the ropes OUCH! Miz sweeps Punk’s legs from the outside and drags him out only to throw him into the steel steps damaging his shoulder. Miz rushes into the ring only to be taken down by the Celtic Warrior who pummels him with stiff shots to the face. We’re reminded that the champion doesn’t have to be pinned to lose his championship here as Sheamus drags Miz into the corner; he delivers some harsh elbows to the chin of Miz before backing off and charging into him hitting an avalanche splash, Miz staggers out of the corner and BROGU-NO! Miz ducks underneath the Brogue Kick and he takes Sheamus down with a chop block. This is labelled pretty well from Jerry Lawler as he is eliminating the Brogue Kick from Sheamus’ arsenal. Miz grabs Sheamus by his leg and begins to stomp away at his knee, clearly he has set a target to take out. Miz brings Sheamus onto a vertical base now and nails him with a few punches only for Sheamus to nail a few of his own now to the crowds delight, Miz whips Sheamus into the ropes and OUCH! Miz dropkicks Sheamus in the knee making him fall to the canvas hard, he makes a pin. 1...2...Sheamus throws Miz off!

Miz isn’t happy as Sheamus gets up onto one knee, boot to the fa-NO! Sheamus moves out of the way and nails Miz with a powerslam as he turns around! Sheamus is crawling for the cover but Punk is back in the ring and he grabs him by his leg, elbow to the knee! Punk now scampers to get the cover on Miz. 1...2...He kicks out! Sheamus has rolled into the corner and got himself onto his feet, Punk climbs up from the floor to his feet before charging at Sheamus, HIGH KNEE! Punk nails Sheamus with the high knee; he has his arms locked for a bulldog and runs NO! Sheamus throws Punk, but he lands on Miz who just got onto his feet with a cross body! Punk did well to recover in mid-air and take out an opponent. Punk is first to recover and on gets to his feet, he and Sheamus exchange blows with the crowd split either way between them. Punk whips him towards the ropes and Miz is onto his feet, Sheamus ducks beneath his clothesline attempt and shoves him into Punk who he takes out with a clothesline that is successful. Miz charges at Sheamus who hoists him up onto his shoulders, he moves him into position and hits a WHITE NOISE onto Punk near crushing him with Miz’ body! Sheamus hooks Punk’s leg. 1...2...The champion kicks out!

The crowd are on their feet for that move from Sheamus, the Celtic Warrior gingerly is up onto his feet as his knee is causing him discomfort. He beats his chest wildly and he is signalling for a Brogue Kick, both Miz and Punk get to their feet and turn around, NO! Both men duck and they shove Sheamus into the turnbuckle, Punk has an idea as he climbs out onto the apron and up to the top rope, meanwhile Sheamus elbows Miz who is behind him before he climbs up to meet Punk who is on the top rope, Lawler doesn’t like the look of this. Sheamus and Punk hammer away at each other, headbutt from Sheamus, he’s got Punk hooked for a superplex but here’s Miz who has Sheamus for a powerbomb, HERE THEY GO! OH MY GOD! Sheamus takes out Punk with a superplex while Miz powerbomb’s Sheamus! All three men are down with the crowd in full voice chanting Holy Shit! There’s movement from Miz in the ring, he crawls over to Punk and makes a cover. 1...2...Punk kicks out! Miz has a look of despair on his face as he now crawls to Sheamus and makes a cover. 1...2...This match continues! Sheamus kicks out! Miz is enraged; he gets onto his feet before making his way over to CM Punk who he brings up onto his snap DDT! Punk smacks into the canvas as Miz rolls him over and covers him. 1...2...Sheamus leaps across to break up the pin!

An infuriated Miz takes out his frustrations on Sheamus by stomping away at his chest before moving onto the weakened knee. Punk is now moving with the help of the ring ropes, he is now onto his feet whilst Miz hammers away at the knee. Punk is now up as he wanders towards Miz before nailing a high kick to the head. Miz is groggy as he staggers around on the spot, Punk locks around Miz going for a belly to belly and he hits it! Miz is launched across the ring. Punk is holding onto his head and makes a debateable move by climbing to the top rope, he points high into the air in tribute to Macho Man Randy Savage, who will he go for Miz or Sheamus? He leaps from the top and nails Sheamus with an elbow to the heart! Punk drapes his arm over Sheamus’ chest as the referee counts. 1...2...He gets his shoulder up! Sheamus is still alive! These men have been going at it for 11 minutes so far which has seen Sheamus take the most punishment.

Punk kneels down covered in sweat before motioning for Sheamus to go to sleep! The fans are chanting C-M Punk! He brings Sheamus onto his feet but Miz clobbers him from behind, all three men are on their feet now with Miz smacking Punk in the back of the head, he’s got him locked Skull Crushin-NO! Punk escapes and smacks him with an elbow to the ribs, double shoulder block! Sheamus takes down Miz and Punk, Sheamus is building up a head of steam as he whips Miz into the corner and then Punk into him, Sheamus charges and nails both men with a splash. He’s got Punk onto his shoulders and he smacks Miz with Punk’s body, Punk delivers elbow strikes to the neck of Sheamus and escapes his grasp, Punk hoists him onto his shoulders but Miz has Punk and Skull Crushing Finale! Miz takes out Punk and Sheamus, he makes a cover on Punk. 1...2...3! NO! Punk kicks out! Miz quickly gets to his feet and he is stalking Sheamus who is recovering to his feet, he hooks his arms...Skul-Sheamus counters by flinging Miz over his shoulder, Miz quickly gets up and turns around BROGUE KICK! Miz is nearly beheaded! Sheamus makes a cover. 1...2...Punk grabs Sheamus and pulls him off before locking in an Anaconda Vice! Punk has got it locked in on Sheamus! Sheamus is in pain here as Punk wrenches back, the champion using all he has left in him to apply the hold. Sheamus is crawling to the ropes, will he get there!?

...
...
...

HE DOES! Punk is forced to break the hold, he is unhappy as he feels he could have held the hold on a bit longer. Punk stands around before wandering over to Miz and nudges him under the bottom rope to the outside; he then exits to the apron waiting for Sheamus to get to his feet, he does and he turns around. Punk springboards from the top rope, BROGUE KICK! Sheamus hits Punk with a Brogue Kick, he makes a cover. 1...2...MIZ pulls Sheamus off Punk and makes a cover of his own! 1...2...Punk kicks out! Oh my, how did he kick out!? Miz brings Punk up and drives knees into his stomach, Punk grabs onto his leg and sweeps him down, SHARPSHOOTER! Punk locks Miz in a Sharpshooter, however Sheamus now gets to his feet and he locks Miz in a cross face! This is devastating as Miz is being tortured here. He tries to move to the ropes but Sheamus has released his hold as he turns and clobbers Punk in the back, Miz is released as he rolls into the corner. Miz staggers onto his feet and all three men punch each other in a triangle, nice kick from Punk to Sheamus but Miz is there to clothesline him after nailing it. Miz hooks Sheamus by his arms, Skull Crushing Finale! Sheamus is out but Punk grabs Miz and hoists him onto his shoulders! Miz is desperately trying to escape by elbowing Punk in the chin.

That is a cover! 1...2...3!

Winner and STILL WWE Champion: CM Punk (16:59)

Matt Striker:
Punk wins! But he is completely unaware of it.

The pop is huge as Justin Roberts announces Punk as the winner; The Miz is sat on the outside with a look of agony on his face it was his move that took Sheamus down! The referee places the title belt onto Punk who finally comes around. He struggles up to his feet before holding his title high. He climbs onto the top rope and winks at Miz who is furious on the outside. Punk swings his title around his head whilst our commentary team continue to debate the nature of Punk’s victory. Matt Striker calls it a fluke as he made the cover after Miz had took out Sheamus, Jerry Lawler sees it differently stating Punk deserved the victory after the performance he gave, either way he remains WWE champion as we fade to a video.

?:
Mercy...

The voice calls out as clips of beat down’s in the WWE are shown. The voice belongs to Kane!

Kane:
Mercy is something I do not show.

Kane electrocutes Shane McMahon’s testicles.

Kane:
Showing mercy separates the weak from the strong.

And now Kane debuts at Badd Blood 97’.

Kane:
I am the Big Red Machine and on June 24th, I will show No Mercy!

With that the poster for the PPV splashes on screen to draw this video to a close.

As we go back to ringside we get a close up of the Women’s Championship which is set in a glass case at ringside.

Jerry Lawler:
Oh boy Matt, I can’t wait for this now! That title is going home with either Beth Phoenix or Layla tonight.

Matt Striker:
You said it King, I’ve got to wonder what condition Layla will be in though, especially after Beth slammed her through that table last Monday.

Jerry Lawler:
I’m inclined to agree but Layla is tough as nails Matt.

*INSAITABLE*

And here comes Layla, she clearly isn’t in good condition as she is taped up around her ribs. The crowd give her a mild pop as she tries to raise her arm but her ribs cause her discomfort. Layla climbs under the bottom rope and she enters the ring.

*GLAMAZON*

Matt Striker:
And here is the Glamazon!

Beth comes out on to the ramp with the crowd jeering her in full voice. Beth raises her hands to her waist symbolising her craving for the gold. She is quick to swagger down to the ring and pose on the turnbuckle in trademark fashion.

Women’s Championship
Layla vs. Beth Phoenix

The bell sounds and Beth is rearing to go as she shoulder barges Layla into the corner, she shrieks as her spine is crushed by the overpowering Glamazon. Beth drives her shoulder repeatedly into her opponent. Matt Striker claims Beth has an obsession for being the best and she aims to become the best by beating Layla to a pulp here. Beth now carries Layla on her shoulders and drives her into the ground with a force, she makes a cover. 1...2...Layla kicks out!

Beth is rapid to pounce on Layla as she puts her in a bearhug, squeezing Layla’s injured ribs. Beth gets onto her feet with Layla screaming in pain. She tries to wriggle free as she leans over Beth’s shoulder and grabs onto the ropes, Layla pulls Beth and sends her over the top to the outside to a little pop from the crowd. The referee is quick to check on Layla but she insists she is fine before she vaults over the top and lands on Beth on the outside. The referee is counting these two ladies who are in a heap on the outside of the ring. Each time he counts the crowd become louder, he gets to a count of 8 before Layla rolls into the ring thus breaking the count. Layla quickly rolls back onto the outside but Beth Phoenix is on her feet as she nails Layla with a kick to the gut before she flings her into the barricade like a speck of dust. The alpha diva notices the Women’s title she is vying for in a glass case by the announce table so she grabs Layla by the hair and drags her around before rubbing her face across the glass claiming it is her property. Beth launches Layla into the steel steps! Absolutely brutal stuff from The Glamazon.

Beth claims that Layla is done as she rolls her battered opponent into the ring, Beth climbs onto the apron and enters through the middle rope before slowly wandering towards Layla, SMALL PACKAGE! 1...2...NO! Beth kicks out! Beth is in shock as Layla almost steals one there, her shock soon turns to aggression as she gets onto her feet before pulling her opponent up to. Beth shows an impressive feat of strength as she lifts Layla high above her head and drops her onto the mat with a military press, Phoenix quickly grabs Layla from behind and hooks her arms, she lifts her up for a Glamslam as Layla shrieks, COUNTER! Layla counters into a roll up! 1...2...3! SHES DONE IT!

Winner and NEW Women’s Champion: Layla via pinfall (5:17)

Matt Striker:
Layla steals it!

Layla is quick to exit the ring as her theme rings out around the arena, the referee then brings her Women’s title to her as she falls to her knees on the ramp. Meanwhile in the ring Beth Phoenix is livid as she pounds away at the mat.

Matt Striker:
Oh my god, King look at Beth! I told you this match meant everything to her.

Jerry Lawler:
That Matt is a very sore loser, Layla despite being badly hurt still got a victory over Beth.

The camera now is back onto Layla who is holding her title on the ramp...

Jerry Lawler:
And that is why she’s the new Women’s champion!

Again Beth is shown in the ring as we fade backstage to a split screen of John Cena’s and Triple H’s respective locker rooms. Cena’s is still flooded with security, then almost in perfect sync both doors slam open as King shrieks like a girl. Triple H emerges in his ring gear with a bottle of water along with Stephanie McMahon to a huge pop as Cena then emerges wearing a plain black t-shirt and jean shorts. He eyeballs the security who separate allowing him to begin his walk to the ring.

Matt Striker:
Well it’s time King, possibly the biggest match of either man’s career.

Jerry Lawler:
This isn’t a wrestling match Matt; it’s a fight for what both men need.

The camera pans to ringside where Justin Roberts announces the stipulation for this match and what happens depending on the winner. We now look at the stage and wait.

...

*MY TIME IS NOW*

The pop is enormous as John Cena walks out onto the stage with a look of no emotion.

Matt Striker:
What an ovation! John Cena is here and he means business.

There is no salute from Cena tonight as he just walks down to the ring before rolling under the bottom rope and into the ring. He takes off his t-shirt and throws it into the crowd before removing his dog tags and kissing them, now he waits with all of his attention on the stage.

...
...
...
...
...

The crowd are eager now, with a large section chanting Triple H!

*THE GAME*

Again the roof is nearly blown off the arena as Triple H emerges spitting water from his mouth, he is closely followed by his wife Stephanie McMahon. Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler sit in silence mainly in awe of Triple H who saunters down to the ring before he gets onto the apron facing the camera and perfectly in cue with the music he spits his water in the air raising his arms as he does so. With Stephanie McMahon sitting on the outside watching on with concern Triple H enters the ring and climbs the top rope before posing in trademark style on the top rope. He now leaves the top rope as he stares at John Cena in the opposite corner. The lights are back to normal as the crowd are extremely loud.

Matt Striker:
Simply amazing.

No Disqualification Match
John Cena vs. Triple H w/Stephanie McMahon

The bell is barely heard due to the deafening crowd but this match is underway, both men walk into the middle of the ring and engage in a stare down, Cena is the first to throw a shot nailing Hunter but Triple H hits him back and again Cena strikes. Triple H wisely kicks Cena in the gut before swinging him into the ropes only for Cena to nail a beheading of a clothesline on his return. Cena quickly jumps on to Hunter and begins nailing him with ferocious rights and lefts, Triple H turns the tables now and he begins hammering away at Cena, and again Cena rolls over onto Triple H as both men are now near the ropes, both men fall to the outside as Hunter rolls over again and Stephanie quickly moves out of the way.

Cena and Hunter are exchanging punches on the outside but Cena hits a knee to the stomach, OUCH! Cena throws Hunter into the steel steps, he quickly grabs him by his head and begins smashing his head against the steps as the crowd count along with each time his head is hit against the steel. John takes the time Triple H is holding onto his head to wander over to the Spanish announce table, he removes the top layer and takes a TV monitor off the table, Stephanie tries to warn Triple H that Cena is behind him but to no avail as he turns straight into a stern shot with the monitor forcing him to fall onto his knees. John now launches the monitor down straight onto Hunter’s face before he picks up the Steel steps. John uses almighty strength to bring the steps up and NO! Hunter rolls out of the way of Cena and the steps. Triple H then gets onto his feet and dropkicks the steps into Cena. Remember pinfalls and submissions cannot occur outside the ring; Triple H wanders over to Cena and BAM! DDT onto the floor! Both men are down for a number of seconds before Triple H holding his head gets to his feet before asking Stephanie to toss him a chair, which she does. Hunter waits for Cena to get onto his knees and BAM! Chair shot to the back. Triple H drags the steel steps towards the announce table now before heading back towards the downed Cena. Triple H brings Cena up onto his feet but Cena swipes Hunter down and grabs his legs he swings Hunter into the ring post!

Both men are down with Stephanie catering to her husband, John Cena is slowly using the ring apron to pull himself up onto his feet before he notices the Steel Chair that was used to smash his back on the floor. He picks up the chair heading towards Triple H and he drives it into his gut, Cena says to Stephanie McMahon stay outta’ my way or you’ll get hurt. Again Cena drives the chair into Hunter’s gut, OH MY GOD! Cena smashes Hunter about 10 times with the chair repeatedly before he drags him up to his feet. Cena’s got him up for an AA, he carries Hunter and he stands now on the steel steps adjacent to the announce table, NO! Hunter elbows Cena in the head forcing him to drop Hunter. Hunter nails Cena with a right hand, Cena falls away from the steps where Triple H is stood on, John charges at Triple H, it’s countered though...SPINEBUSTER THROUGH THE SPANISH ANNOUNCE TABLE BY TRIPLE H! The commentary team and fans alike are going crazy as both men are laid out in the rubble.

Nobody is moving, the referee is seriously considering calling this to halt, however Triple H’s wife Stephanie McMahon is trying to wake up her husband. Triple H is moving and he is up! He flips his hair out of his face before he sets his attentions onto John Cena who he picks up and drags slowly towards the apron and rolls him in. He is soon to follow him and he makes a cover, 1...2...NO! Cena kicks out. Triple H slowly backs up into the corner of the ring which is his only way of getting up to his feet, he is up and he gingerly runs towards the downed Cena, Jumping Knee drop that catches Cena right onto the head.

Triple H is trying to slow the pace down to preserve energy as he locks Cena in a headlock, momentarily however as he releases the hold and hits a right hand, and another. Triple H begins removing the tape from his right hand; he slowly unravels it off before throwing it to the outside. He now unloads with right hands using his exposed knuckles straight into Cena’s skull. Triple H now rolls under the bottom rope before looking underneath the ring. He remerges wielding a trash can which he throws over the top rope and into the ring. Hunter now rolls in and picks up the trash can, OW! Cena takes a shot onto his back with the metal can. Triple H eyes scan the ring before he heads to the corner and places the trash can in between the top and middle turnbuckle keeping it placed there. With the can jammed in Triple H brings Cena to his feet before gripping his arm and swinging him with force but NO! Cena stops himself by placing his hands either side of the top turnbuckle, little does he know Triple H is sprinting behind him. Great awareness from Cena as he turns and instantly drops and hits a drop toe hold that drops Triple H face first into the can. SCHOOL BOY, 1...2...OOOH Triple H just kicks out!

Both men are quick to their feet, double clothesline! Both men take one another out. What is Stephanie McMahon doing!? On the outside she removes her high heel shoes and throws them to one side before picking up the steel chair from earlier and entering the ring with it. Cena is on all fours as Stephanie smacks him across the back to a mixed reaction. Stephanie is desperate to keep her job as she drops the chair and tries to awaken her husband. Little does she know that John Cena is making his way onto his feet behind her, she slowly realises with a look of fear in her eyes as she turns around to face him. John walks towards her forcing her to back up into a corner and says strike one, stay out of the way. With that she immediately exits the ring as John heads back over to Triple H who is onto his knees, LOWBLOW! Triple H quickly bounds to his feet now and hooks Cena, PEDIGREE! Triple H hits a Pedigree and makes a cover. 1...2...3! NO! Cena got his shoulder up!

Hunter quickly crawls across to the steel chair and picks it up, he smacks it onto the ground as he waits for Cena to get up. John grabs onto the ropes and turns around unknowingly, BAM! Triple H nails Cena across the skull before making a cover, the count seems like an eternity.

NO! Cena kicks out again!

It appears Cena has been busted open here across the forehead, as he is laid spread out across the canvas. Matt Striker mentions how much this win means to Cena who will not give up here tonight, Triple H looks remorseful but his wife shouts to finish the job. He turns around to John and brings him u onto his knees before saying I’m sorry John but I have to do this. Cena takes Triple H down and hooks Triple H in, STF! Cena has the STF locked in, centre of the ring nowhere to go! John is using everything he’s got as Triple H tries to crawl to the ropes but to no avail, Triple H is fading here but there’s Stephanie again who sneaks up behind Cena who notices on the titantron and immediately leaves the hold turning to Stephanie. As he goes to say something Stephanie smacks him across the face, John is furious and he picks Stephanie up onto his shoulders, NO! Triple H takes Cena out from behind allowing Stephanie to get out of harm’s way. Triple H has Cena hooked, NO! Back body drop, Triple H quickly gets to his feet, shoulder block! And another! Triple H wildly swings for Cena who ducks and hits a spin-out powerbomb! Cena’s hand is raised high in the air.

You can’t see me; Cena runs to the ropes and hits a 5 knuckle shuffle, John is waiting for Triple H to get to his feet and he does, ATTITUDE ADJUSTMENT! Cena makes a cover.

NO! Triple H stays alive!

John is wasting little time, he heads to the outside and searches under the ring before pulling out a table, using significant strength he slides it into the ring before he follows in after it. He opens it up and places it in the centre of the ring as Triple H gets to his feet staggering about, John smashes him against the table and places him onto it. He heads towards the top rope, suddenly the crowd are sent into raptures as DYLAN KELLY appears at the top of the stage, he swaggers down to the ring wearing his suit. Cena is yet to notice him as he reaches the ring, John sees him and immediately leaves the turnbuckle and is after Kelly chasing him around the ring, Kelly heads into the ring with Cena close behind but Triple H is up as Cena is running towards him, SPINNING SPINEBUSTER THROUGH THE TABLE! Dylan Kelly exits the ring as Triple H makes the cover.

Cena kicks out!

Hunter is quick to roll to the outside and in trademark fashion he pulls a sledgehammer out from beneath the ring. He sets eyes on Dylan Kelly who stands with a look of concern on his face. However he ignores him and enters the ring eagerly awaiting Cena to move. He is up onto his feet and Triple H swings the weapon, NO! Cena ducks, he hoists him up but Dylan Kelly has rolled into the ring, he’s inviting Cena to punch him vowing that Cena will regret it. Cena drops Hunter and nails Kelly, he is hammering away at the chairman! Kelly escapes the ring and he is heading well sprinting up the ramp, BOOM! Those messages again, pyro explodes on the stage stopping Kelly in his tracks meanwhile in the ring Cena shouts to him he will get him. Suddenly the camera catches a figure jump the barricade and he enters the ring behind Cena, he picks up the sledgehammer and smacks Cena in the back of the head! It’s, its CODY RHODES!

Cody Rhodes is Kelly’s back up! He locks Cena’s neck, CROSSRHODES! Cody nails Cena and he lets out a devious smile, Dylan Kelly has high tailed it after that explosion on the stage. Rhodes exits the ring before hopping the barricade and running through the crowd. Triple H is sat in the corner stunned whilst Stephanie desperately begs him to make a cover; he crawls towards Cena and looks towards Stephanie. He hooks the leg!

3! Triple H has won!

Winner: Triple H via pinfall (22:54)

Matt Striker:
Cody Rhodes was the back up! Triple H is the new general manager!

Triple H’s music blares out as Stephanie enters the ring embracing him and kissing his cheek, Hunter doesn’t seem to happy with how he gained the victory there as he looks down disheartened at the bloody Cena, suddenly the camera pans to the back where Dylan Kelly runs through the corridors.

Jerry Lawler:
I don’t care if I lose my job Matt, Dylan Kelly is a no good bastard!

Kelly seems in a frantic rush as he comes to a set of double doors and exits to the parking lot. On his limo there is red paint saying Judgement Day is here, from behind Kelly is clattered by someone dressed in all black gear with a ski mask on. The unknown man drapes a brown bag which he pulls from his pocket over Kelly and lifts him onto his shoulder before running to a nearby car which he opens the trunk of placing Kelly inside and closing it. Suddenly WWE employees rush out as the man enters the car and frantically tries to start the car with people banging on the outside of it.

Matt Striker:
What the hell King, they’ve got the chairman of the company!

The camera pans to the ring where Triple H and Stephanie are stood in shock over the fallen Cena. Our PPV ends with the car speeding off while being chased down with the following words from Matt Striker.

Matt Striker:
Who the hell was that, what is going on he’s kidnapping our chairman!?

The screen fades to black with the car driving away at speed.

A Nightmare Review:

Hey Cult, Doing a live review here so bare in mind that when you read this.

Kidd and Ziggler to open the show nice choice as they put on a show together. I thought maybe Dolph winning would lead to another match between the two but there was no bitterness from Kidd after the match so maybe not, Either way good match and a nice victory from Dolph.

The cage match was a really good read, Lots of back and forth action and the ending with AJ costing Bryan the match looks like we may be heading to the breakup between these two which hopefully plays out differently then it did in WWE.

Bray Wyatt debut? Nice should be good to see what you do with him and what you add to his gimmick. The whole holograms thing is just weird though I must say. Wyatt is just creepy...I love it! haha

Hawkins and Reks coming to the ring on ziplines seems a bit random and flashy for no reason honestly. Now onto the match, Good solid tag team match I thought Rey and Cara had a chance in this match but not surprised to see the champs retain, The Brock Lock being used was a nice touch to make Reks look more powerful then he really is.

Wow the submission match was awesome! My favorite match of the night thus far Wade wins and my guess is now were heading to a rubber match next PPV between the two to end the feud. I was really looking forward to this match and it did not let me down kudos for that.

Kane wins by DQ, I was hoping he would take the belt from Del Rio but this could just anger Kane further for the next PPV which could work out great in the long run. Kane taking out his anger on Ricardo after the match nice to see and really hope this time Ricardo is gone for good.

Honestly the 8 man tag match didnt do much for me until the end KOFI HEEL TURN! Goodluck with this Cult, I already like it as its never been done before that stuff is always nice to see in a BT so kudos to you for trying it atleast hope it works out well, I must say going into it I had a feeling someone would turn either him or Booker.

WWE Title match time! Im glad this isnt the main event Cena vs Triple H is far more important, Good match between these 3 men, Punk retains which is what I expected to happen a little bummed by the way the match ended I must say.

Short but good for a womens match here between Layla and Beth, A little surprised to see Layla win the belt I thought for sure Beth would win but nothing wrong with being surprised, nothing at all. I expect Beth to want a rematch though so that should be good as well.

The fight between Cena and Triple H was awesome I must say, Cody Rhodes attacking Cena was a surprise I honestly expected to see a big powerhouse debut and screw Cena but this was a nice surprise and it looks like Cody is gonna be a big star very soon gotta dig that, Also im happy Dylan Kelly wont be in action as its better to leave that to the actual stars. Kelly gets kidnapped to end the show, Wonder who did it as I thought Cena was leaving him the messages maybe its someone yet to debut in WWE? Have to wait and see.

All in all this whole show was a great read im really digging where your taking things in your BT Cult, Keep it up!

 

[The Cult]

*Backstage officials are said to be pleased with last night’s show and are tight lipped about who could’ve kidnapped Dylan Kelly. Speaking of which Kelly is said to want to keep the PG product but to make it more edgy.


*WWE officials are also said to be impressed with Ryback who has been lighting up developmental. Ryback formerly known as Skip Sheffield is said to be extremely close to being called up to the main roster.


*Speaking of additions to the roster, WWE are said to be closely on the tail of TNA superstar Chris Sabin, it is unknown if Alex Shelley his tag team partner will be approached too. Sabin only has a month left on his TNA contract and it is looking apparent that he will not be extending it.

WWE Monday Night RAW – 28 May, 2012


RAW is live tonight from the New Orleans arena and opens up with the usual video package. After which we’re welcomed to the broadcast by Matt Striker & Jerry The King Lawler, the arena remains silent for a number of seconds before “The Game” hits to an enormous pop. The COO and NEW RAW GM would be accompanied by Stephanie McMahon and he has some big questions to answer. Hunter with a microphone in hand first stated how much of a battle he had with John Cena last night labelling it one of the toughest in his career. Hunter says that he didn’t want to win in those circumstances of attack but did what he had to do. Moving on he reminds us how our PPV ended last night with the kidnapping of WWE chairman Dylan Kelly, Hunter says that as the highest authority figure in the company behind Kelly is now running the WWE, this makes the crowd pop huge. Hunter says that over the past 24 hours he has had countless members of the WWE roster come to him asking for air time and seeing as he’s now in charge he states that Friday Night Smackdown will be returning live on Friday nights! Hunter says that the night after No Mercy will see a huge draft take place on a 3 hour edition of RAW. As for who will run Smackdown Triple H states he will be interviewing candidates over the coming weeks. Triple H informs the crowd about how much he loves this but sadly it won’t be permanent as a search party has been sent out to retrieve the kidnapped Dylan Kelly, this is not met with much love from the crowd. Before he could continue he would be interrupted by John Cena to a massive ovation. Cena would quickly storm down to the ring and retrieve a microphone. He cuts straight to the point and demands that Dylan Kelly be found as Cena is still yet to get his hands on him for what he did, John meanwhile wants the man who cost him his match last night Cody Rhodes and he wants him tonight. Triple H sarcastically thanks Cena for the interruption and states he was just getting to the topic of Cody Rhodes, he is also unhappy with the end of the match last night and orders Rhodes to come down to the ring as he will face John Cena right now! After a number of seconds Rhodes’ music would hit to some big heat and the son of the American Dream would appear on the stage, dressed to compete but with a microphone in hand. Rhodes to the annoyance of the fans will not be facing Cena tonight but will be happy to next week. Cody says that when Dylan Kelly came to him for help he was quick to jump at the opportunity. Not because he was Kelly’s biggest fan but because of his dislike to John Cena. Rhodes says that Cena made a mockery of the professional wrestling industry by refusing to come to work after he lost to The Rock, Rhodes also blames Cena for the state of wrestling today. Cody thinks Cena has made wrestling different from the golden age of the 80’s, Cody asks the crowd to look at him and he is a throwback to that great era. Rhodes says he took Kelly’s offer on his quest to bring back the golden age of wrestling and end the Cena era of wrestling. Triple H would remind Cody that he is in charge and that he will face John Cena right now, Cody on the other hand says he’s pulling a Cena and not working tonight and he headed to the back. Triple H was livid as Cena paced around the ring, Hunter however thought fast on his

feet and says he knows Cena wants a fight and that there is someone else in the back who wants to fight, John Cena will take on Kane later tonight! That announcement would take us out to commercial with Cena static in the ring.

We return to the broadcast with scenes of the crowd in our arena tonight, we are quickly welcomed to Yoshi Tatsu who is in the ring ready for action tonight; an eerie guitar rift would sound transcending the arena into darkness before Bray Wyatt accompanied by the same holograms from last night would walk down to the ring with a microphone in hand. Wyatt would babble about his glorious night last night, about his welcoming. He says tonight he will welcome as his opponent is invited to join the Wyatt family. Ending with his sick laugh the lights would come back on forcing his family to disappear. In this match Wyatt would dominate and make short work of Tatsu and he ended the match with a kiss goodnight to Tatsu’s forehead before hitting a Swinging reverse STO to gain a 3 count and an easy win. Matt Striker is mesmerised by Wyatt’s destruction as he would saunter out of the ring to the back in darkness followed by his reappearing holograms. Striker would quickly send us backstage where an altercation has broke out, on arrival we would see various crew members separating All World promotions including new arrival Kofi Kingston and R-Truth and Evan Bourne, the pair could be heard shouting why to Kofi Kingston meaning about his cruel betrayal to them last night. Triple H would appear and controlled the situation with ease, he scheduled a match for tonight between the Prime Time Players and Evan Bourne and R-Truth. AW and his men disliked this decision immensely until Triple H announced that the winners would be in line for a Tag Team title shot.


We cross back to ringside and are greeted by the suit wearing Miz to some big heat. He doesn’t look happy as he enters the ring and demands a microphone. He is quick to vent his frustrations about last night and how their champion CM Punk stole his victory last night at Judgement Day. Miz claims he is the most see WWE Champion of all time and he still intends to win his 2nd WWE title. He would be rudely interrupted by our champion now CM Punk who looked extremely pleased as he swaggered down to the ring with the gold on his shoulder. Punk is on point with his statement that if it were Miz who won in those circumstances he would be pleased but because it isn’t him he is calling it a joke. Punk slightly admits maybe Miz did knock him onto Sheamus for the pinfall but it was him who gained the pinfall and the 1,2,3. Punk offers Miz another title match at anytime he wants it because Punk is the best in the world. But here comes the other competitor from last night as Sheamus came from the back to a huge pop! Sheamus calls Miz an arse before he is quick to mention that he still hasn’t received his 1 on 1 rematch for the WWE Title and that if Punk is keen to offer out title shots he is keen to accept his tonight, a statement which the crowd are definitely on board with. As the microphone is raised to Punk’s mouth Miz interrupts with the opinion that Sheamus can’t get the job done anyway, this leads to a stare down between the two men to the delight of Punk who smiles. But what’s this? Here comes Mark Henry accompanied by AW down to the ring. The smooth talkin’ AW mentions that it’s time for some people to enter the Hall Of Pain and that his client Mark Henry is lookin’ for some gold. Henry now takes the mic and reminds the superstars of just how strong he is as he would hold the World Heavyweight Championship for a period of 2011. Henry tells Sheamus to get to the back of the line and if Miz wants to debate this with him to go right ahead cause’ he’s waiting. CM Punk is quick to mention that there seems to be some disagreements here and that maybe they should just go ahead and fight it out. Punk says he’ll leave them to it but as he turns around he is clobbered by The Miz from behind, it’s all kicked off! Sheamus and Mark Henry are brawling in the centre of the ring as Miz is stomping on Punk in the corner. Sheamus is holding off the big man as AW urges Henry to fight back in the ring, Sheamus charges at Henry but is caught and nailed with a World’s Strongest

Slam with a sickening thud. This catches the attention of The Miz who turns with shock and out of pure fear charges at Henry, only to suffer the same fate as Sheamus. Henry sizes up Punk, but the champion is showing some fight as he hits Henry with a few kicks before picking up his gold and smashing Henry in the side of the head with it, somehow he is still standing though! Punk gets ready to deliver another blow but is hoisted up and crushed into the canvas with a WSS. Henry defiantly beats his chest as AW enters the ring and picks up the WWE title. This is before handing it to Henry as he raises it above his head to some heat from the crowd, this would take us out to commercial.


{Commercials}


We return to some big news, news that broke during the break that later tonight we’ll see CM Punk team up with Sheamus to take on The Miz and Mark Henry in tag team action. Speaking of tag team’s here comes one now to the ring, they are the Tag Team Champions, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks. The pair saunter down the ramp to some big heat, they’re dressed to impress tonight as they both don grey suits. It looks as though the pair will be on commentary for our next bout. With that “Move” hits through the PA system and the Prime Time Players accompanied by Kofi Kingston hit the ring to some heat, most directed at Kofi. They stand in the ring shouting their mouth’s off before Evan Bourne and R-Truth make their entrance. This match would feature some innovative offense from Truth and Bourne however due to interference from Kofi Kingston by distracting Truth; Darren Young was able to roll up Bourne for a 3 count. Truth and Bourne were then blindsided by the three men, beating them badly. Kofi would hit a Trouble in Paradise on both men and he then grabbed a microphone to give his feelings. Kofi would mockingly say why, annoying the crowd. Before he could give his explanation, CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAA! Booker T is here, the man who Kofi hit with a Trouble in Paradise last night, Booker is met by a monstrous pop as he charges to the ring and cleans house. Nailing all three men with lefts and rights. Booker hits a devastating kick to the chin on Kofi; he is quickly dragged out to the outside though by his cohorts. Booker is livid as he flings his suit jacket to the outside before he performs a spinaroonie and exits the ring. Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks who still sit on commentary are bemused by this and say they may as well head into the ring.


The pair sarcastically mentions they were here to congratulate the winners but it seems they can’t now. Tyler Reks says they should’ve zip lined down to the ring again and this prompts Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara to come down to the ring. Rey asks if this is a joke to them, they should be honoured about being Tag Team champions, not happy about their entrance. Rey says on both occasions they have faced it was either a mistake by them or Hawkins and Reks cheating to stop them winning the titles. Tyler is quick to interrupt stating Rey is just bitter because of his knee and that they will face them again at any time for the titles, just to embarrass them again. Here come Primo and Epico though along with Rosa Mendes. Epico and Primo enter the ring and talk in Spanish however the last word is English Luchardors, BAM! Primo and Epico along with the Tag champs beat down Rey and Cara, Mysterio’s knee seems to be the main target of both team’s assault. Jimmy and Jey Uso are out for the save; the pair storm the ring and fight off the 4 men. Jimmy and Jey clear the ring! The four men along with Rosa are furious as they scream back at The Usos in the ring who help Sin Cara to his feet, BAM! Jey Uso hits Cara with a Superkick out of nowhere! The crowd are in shock as it seems The Usos are taking no prisoners as they symbolise the titles around their waists to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Jerry Lawler is impressed by the pair and thinks the champions have got a massive target on their backs.


Kane:
Mercy...

Kane calls out as clips of beat down’s in the WWE are shown.

Kane:
Mercy is something I do not show.

Kane electrocutes Shane McMahon’s testicles.

Kane:
Showing mercy separates the weak from the strong.

And now Kane debuts at Badd Blood 97’.

Kane:
I am the Big Red Machine and on June 24th, I will show No Mercy!

Our commentary team can’t wait for No Mercy in a couple of weeks, they are quick to point out that Wade Barrett showed no mercy last night as he decimated and forced Chris Jericho to submit. They are mentioning this as here comes Barrett now to some big heat. Wade whose beard is growing at an alarming rate saunters down the ramp and enters the ring before he calmly asks for a microphone, he is full of smiles here tonight. Wade goes the route of saying I told you so to the crowd regarding his promise to make Jericho submit, Wade says that he has taken out Jericho thus starting his barrage. Wade wants to put everyone on standby that Jericho is the first of many to be ended by him, but here comes Y2J! He is battered and bruised as he struggles down to the ring sporting his skinny jeans and leather jacket. Jericho admits Wade has beat him up pretty bad but that time he planned on retiring has now gone completely, Wade has reinvigorated Y2J and Jericho wants to lay the challenge out there. Due to them being tied 1 for 1 Jericho wants it to end when he is medically cleared to compete at No Mercy. Barrett is smug however and questions his judgement, stating that maybe the loss of blood has got to him and if he really wants to get back in the ring with him. Jericho says he doesn’t want this but he needs it! This receives a big pop as Barrett rubs his grizzly chin...BAM! Wade smacks Jericho square in the face, Barrett is taking advantage of Jericho’s well being as he brutalises him. He stomps on him, grounding him at every attempt to get up. Wade is enjoying this as he laughs evilly, Wade now exits the ring and picks up a steel chair. Wade smacks Jericho repeatedly as he gets back in the ring, he rags Jericho’s clothing off him and he smacks him again with the chair. Wade brings Jericho now to his feet and hoists him up, WASTELAND! Barrett has destroyed Jericho again. The heat is unrivalled as Wade leaves the ring; our commentary team are stunned by the brutality as we head for a break.

We return and are backstage immediately in the trainer’s room; Chris Jericho is laid across the table as the doctor places an ice pack on his spine. In comes Triple H to a massive pop from the crowd as he looks concerned. He is straight to the point and asks if Jericho will be in good enough condition to compete at No Mercy, Jericho’s facial reaction isn’t good as the doctor just shakes his head. Now William Regal comes into the scene checking on his good friend Jericho. Triple H tells Chris to get some rest and as soon as he’s fit enough whenever it may be he will face Barrett.


Now for some tag team action, CM Punk comes out to a massive pop still feeling the effects from earlier tonight. Now his partner Sheamus arrives, this before The Miz and Mark Henry accompanied by AW make their respective entrances. Miz and Henry do not seem to be coherent with each other after Henry took out his partner earlier on. Despite this they work well as a team as they try and fend off the champ and Sheamus. They successfully dominate Punk for the majority of the contest until a lapse in concentration by The Miz allowed Punk to make the hot tag to Sheamus. The Celtic Warrior was gunning for Henry and got his wish as Miz squirmed to make a tag. Henry and Sheamus the two behemoths would trade blows until Sheamus took advantage and with amazing strength he bodyslammed Henry, Miz would tag his partner on the shoulder as he rolled to the outside and Sheamus whose eyes were wide with rage would tag Punk and head after Henry. Whilst the two men in the ring contested Henry and Sheamus brawled near the announce table, Sheamus had the advantage until AW made a brief distraction, catching a fierce punch for his troubles. BAM! This time though allowed Henry to steady himself and hit the unaware Sheamus before lifting him up and nailing a World’s Strongest Slam through the announce table! Our commentary team would be in awe as they threw their arms up in shock, meanwhile in the ring CM Punk who was on the top rope would be distracted by the awesome thud and Miz would take advantage tripping him off the top rope, forcing him to land awkwardly on his neck. The Miz would drag Punk to his feet and hit a Skull Crushing Finale for the victory. Post-match he would quickly exit the ring, it’s clear he wants nothing to do with Mark Henry who would be congratulated by the vibrant AW.


Backstage now with a smug looking Wade Barrett, he would be confronted by Tyson Kidd briefly questioning Barrett’s manhood; Wade however would brush off these comments and continue to walk through the corridors. This until Triple H who is enraged meets Barrett and calls him a smug punk, Hunter wants Barrett to get what’s coming to him and when Chris is ready he has been guaranteed a match with Wade. Wade is on the money however when he points out that after No Mercy he and Jericho may be on alternate brands. Again to a big pop Triple H states he runs the WWE now and he WILL face Jericho when he says.


Ringside now where Brodus Clay makes his entrance he is accompanied by Zack Ryder and his dancers, Cameron and Naomi. Clay is ready and looks extremely focused, out now to some pretty decent heat Damien Sandow along with The Big Show. Sandow however is quick to talk about the newly enlightened Big Show and that he is tired of Clay and Ryder’s ignorance too. Also he’s tired of just being looked at as a giant, Sandow announces that Show will now go by his real name “The Enlightened” Paul Wight. Wight wearing his old attire from 2002 of black trousers and a black vest entered the ring to begin his match with Clay. These two big men would fight around the ring in typical big man style, definitely not a technical classic. The finish would come when Clay was distracted by Sandow and Ryder brawling on the outside, he would turn around then into a knockout right hand and would be pinned. Wight would quickly exit the ring and help his new friend and enlightener Sandow and bring Ryder into the ring, and another right hand would be delivered before Sandow picked up a microphone and stated that Clay and Ryder have just been enlightened. Cameron and Naomi would be in tears on the outside as Striker on commentary questioned who could stop these two from the path of enlightening. The two men standing triumphant would take us out to commercial.

Upon return to RAW we would be greeted with a video package hyping up the 1000th episode of RAW. This then lead to Lawler and Striker discussing their favourite moments of RAW. We headed backstage to a room lit in eerie red lighting; Kane would sit alone in a chair to a huge pop, he would slowly scan the room. This is until his attention is diverted by a knock on his door as Stephanie McMahon entered and informed Kane his match with John Cena is coming up in a little while, Kane would stare without emotion before simply asking of the whereabouts’ of Alberto Del Rio the Intercontinental Champion. Stephanie’s response was not one that Kane appreciated as she stated he is not here tonight. Kane was livid and began flinging the chair around the room forcing Stephanie to quickly scatter. The camera would quickly leave the room heading to a concerned Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler.


Here comes some big heat! Daniel Bryan and AJ make their way down to the ring, there are no YES! Chants from Bryan tonight even though a majority of the fans are chanting it. He and AJ quickly enter the ring and surprisingly AJ is the one with the microphone, AJ says that she is so sorry for what happened last night and that it doesn’t change the fact that Daniel is a better man than Randy Orton. Better than the man who would attack an innocent girl like AJ, AJ finishes her apology before Bryan is handed the microphone as he thinks about his decision. The crowd are in chants of NO! And a very large ****! Chant. Bryan says nothing and opens his arms wide allowing AJ to come in for a warm embrace to some massive heat. Daniel releases the hug before he vents his feelings. His main feeling being that last night despite AJ’s mistake he wasn’t going to beat Orton as he suffered a serious injury during the match. Randy hit him with a RKO early into the bout and Bryan uses this as a excuse as it severely hurt his neck. The crowd aren’t buying this bullshit and neither is Orton who comes out to a big pop, he talks on his way down to the ring, first addressing AJ saying that she got in the way so she got hurt. Orton wanted revenge from February and he has that now. Orton wants to now avert his attention to the big one the WWE title, Bryan however is furious that Orton has completely blown him off. Daniel also wants the title so that he and AJ can become the real power couple, but Orton and he aren’t finished he suggests why don’t both men face off not just to finish this but to become the number 1 contender. Orton seems on board and he stares coldly into AJ’s eyes however she smiles back into the eyes of The Viper, this proves a vital distraction as Orton is clobbered by Bryan. Bryan is going for punishment, RKO! Orton hits an RKO out of nowhere! Bryan is out, Orton is wriggling about and he wants to go for a Punt! AJ is stood frozen not knowing what to do as she watches Orton go for a Punt...AJ runs in the way of Randy stopping him in his tracks. The crowd are booing ferociously and chanting RKO, Randy backs away before falling and pounding the mat putting the fear of death into AJ who cowers away. Randy slithers backwards out of the ring to a huge ovation as AJ cries in the corner of the ring. Matt Striker is quick to mention that things are not finished between these two men as Randy heads to the back with his theme music playing through the PA system.


We are now briefly cut away to the backstage were John Cena stands with what seems like new WWE merchandise, a royal blue shirt is what he wears with Ruthless Aggression written across it in red blocked writing. John is in the locker room readying himself for what will be a brawl with The Big Red Machine Kane. We are now to be treated with a diva’s contest featuring Layla teaming with Natalya to take on Beth Phoenix and Eve. All four make their entrances and Layla who is still taped up is struggling as Beth continuously beats her down dominating her with brute force. Suddenly Layla would make a swift tag and allowed Natalya to enter the ring and clean house. She would knock Eve off the apron and in trademark fashion would scoop Beth’s legs and lock in a Sharpshooter! Beth would have no choice but to tap! Upon their victory Natalya helped Layla to her feet in the ring and took a hold of the Women’s title from the referee. Natalya raised the title high into the air before handing it to the British diva, clearly she’s set on the title.

We’re back and it’s time for our main event Kane makes his entrance to a big pop and the big red machine is ready for action. Now John Cena enters again to a massive pop, the biggest of the evening. In spite of the fact there are a few anti-Cena fans in attendance. The bell rings and John Cena is showing brutality we rarely see from him, John is delivering harsh strikes to Kane before he is met himself with an uppercut. Kane is now in control and hits a big boot to Cena sending him to the outside, Kane follows to the outside and whips Cena into the steel steps shoulder first forcing a yelp in pain. Kane throws Cena back into the ring and follows on only to be scooped up and hit with an AA! John makes a cover, only for Kane to power out! John can’t believe it and he is looking to finish this now. He waits for Kane to get to his feet and NO! Kane hits a right hand. Both men would continue to trade offense until the finish of this match as Cody Rhodes who claimed he was bringing the golden age back appeared from the crowd, Cody wearing his grey t-shirt would distract Cena who ultimately turned around into a chokeslam and was pinned for the victory. Kane’s exit was unnoticed as Rhodes entered the ring and lay down by Cena with a microphone in hand. Cody mentioned how Cena may have been right about taking time off because he just can’t seem to get it done anymore. Cody says that if he thinks its bad now he is in for hell. Cody is ready to restore professional wrestling as he brings Cena to his knees and hits him in the head with the microphone with a sickening buzz. Cody brings John up and hits a Crossrhodes! The crowd sit in stunned silence as Rhodes grabs the microphone and simply states he is the Rhodes to the future. RAW would go off the air with Cody smiling at the battered body of Cena in the ring with Smoke & Mirrors blasting through the speakers. Matt Striker states that Rhodes is one serious wrestler as we go off the air...

Choxy Feedback.

*Backstage officials are said to be pleased with last night’s show and are tight lipped about who could’ve kidnapped Dylan Kelly. Speaking of which Kelly is said to want to keep the PG product but to make it more edgy.


*WWE officials are also said to be impressed with Ryback who has been lighting up developmental. Ryback formerly known as Skip Sheffield is said to be extremely close to being called up to the main roster.


*Speaking of additions to the roster, WWE are said to be closely on the tail of TNA superstar Chris Sabin, it is unknown if Alex Shelley his tag team partner will be approached too. Sabin only has a month left on his TNA contract and it is looking apparent that he will not be extending it.




WWE Monday Night RAW – 28 May, 2012


RAW is live tonight from the New Orleans arena and opens up with the usual video package. After which we’re welcomed to the broadcast by Matt Striker & Jerry The King Lawler, the arena remains silent for a number of seconds before “The Game” hits to an enormous pop. The COO and NEW RAW GM would be accompanied by Stephanie McMahon and he has some big questions to answer. Hunter with a microphone in hand first stated how much of a battle he had with John Cena last night labelling it one of the toughest in his career. Hunter says that he didn’t want to win in those circumstances of attack but did what he had to do. Moving on he reminds us how our PPV ended last night with the kidnapping of WWE chairman Dylan Kelly, Hunter says that as the highest authority figure in the company behind Kelly is now running the WWE, this makes the crowd pop huge. Hunter says that over the past 24 hours he has had countless members of the WWE roster come to him asking for air time and seeing as he’s now in charge he states that Friday Night Smackdown will be returning live on Friday nights! Hunter says that the night after No Mercy will see a huge draft take place on a 3 hour edition of RAW. As for who will run Smackdown Triple H states he will be interviewing candidates over the coming weeks. Triple H informs the crowd about how much he loves this but sadly it won’t be permanent as a search party has been sent out to retrieve the kidnapped Dylan Kelly, this is not met with much love from the crowd. Before he could continue he would be interrupted by John Cena to a massive ovation. Cena would quickly storm down to the ring and retrieve a microphone. He cuts straight to the point and demands that Dylan Kelly be found as Cena is still yet to get his hands on him for what he did, John meanwhile wants the man who cost him his match last night Cody Rhodes and he wants him tonight. Triple H sarcastically thanks Cena for the interruption and states he was just getting to the topic of Cody Rhodes, he is also unhappy with the end of the match last night and orders Rhodes to come down to the ring as he will face John Cena right now! After a number of seconds Rhodes’ music would hit to some big heat and the son of the American Dream would appear on the stage, dressed to compete but with a microphone in hand. Rhodes to the annoyance of the fans will not be facing Cena tonight but will be happy to next week. Cody says that when Dylan Kelly came to him for help he was quick to jump at the opportunity. Not because he was Kelly’s biggest fan but because of his dislike to John Cena. Rhodes says that Cena made a mockery of the professional wrestling industry by refusing to come to work after he lost to The Rock, Rhodes also blames Cena for the state of wrestling today. Cody thinks Cena has made wrestling different from the golden age of the 80’s, Cody asks the crowd to look at him and he is a throwback to that great era. Rhodes says he took Kelly’s offer on his quest to bring back the golden age of wrestling and end the Cena era of wrestling. Triple H would remind Cody that he is in charge and that he will face John Cena right now, Cody on the other hand says he’s pulling a Cena and not working tonight and he headed to the back. Triple H was livid as Cena paced around the ring, Hunter however thought fast on his

feet and says he knows Cena wants a fight and that there is someone else in the back who wants to fight, John Cena will take on Kane later tonight! That announcement would take us out to commercial with Cena static in the ring.

I liked how John Cena was showing a serious attitude towards Cody Rhodes. It was interesting how I heard that Cody interfeared due to Dylan Kelly asking. John Cena v. Kane? I was hoping Kane would have a segment with Alberto Del Rio. Maybe putting him through a burning table?

We return to the broadcast with scenes of the crowd in our arena tonight, we are quickly welcomed to Yoshi Tatsu who is in the ring ready for action tonight; an eerie guitar rift would sound transcending the arena into darkness before Bray Wyatt accompanied by the same holograms from last night would walk down to the ring with a microphone in hand. Wyatt would babble about his glorious night last night, about his welcoming. He says tonight he will welcome as his opponent is invited to join the Wyatt family. Ending with his sick laugh the lights would come back on forcing his family to disappear. In this match Wyatt would dominate and make short work of Tatsu and he ended the match with a kiss goodnight to Tatsu’s forehead before hitting a Swinging reverse STO to gain a 3 count and an easy win. Matt Striker is mesmerised by Wyatt’s destruction as he would saunter out of the ring to the back in darkness followed by his reappearing holograms. Striker would quickly send us backstage where an altercation has broke out, on arrival we would see various crew members separating All World promotions including new arrival Kofi Kingston and R-Truth and Evan Bourne, the pair could be heard shouting why to Kofi Kingston meaning about his cruel betrayal to them last night. Triple H would appear and controlled the situation with ease, he scheduled a match for tonight between the Prime Time Players and Evan Bourne and R-Truth. AW and his men disliked this decision immensely until Triple H announced that the winners would be in line for a Tag Team title shot.

I am not much of a fan of squashes however Bryan Wyatt impressed me against Yoshi Tatzu. I didn't enjoy the announcement of the tag team match as I was hoping for brutality with in the members of Team Booker. I was hoping something such as Kofi Kingston getting his ass kicked by Bourne and Truth.


We cross back to ringside and are greeted by the suit wearing Miz to some big heat. He doesn’t look happy as he enters the ring and demands a microphone. He is quick to vent his frustrations about last night and how their champion CM Punk stole his victory last night at Judgement Day. Miz claims he is the most see WWE Champion of all time and he still intends to win his 2nd WWE title. He would be rudely interrupted by our champion now CM Punk who looked extremely pleased as he swaggered down to the ring with the gold on his shoulder. Punk is on point with his statement that if it were Miz who won in those circumstances he would be pleased but because it isn’t him he is calling it a joke. Punk slightly admits maybe Miz did knock him onto Sheamus for the pinfall but it was him who gained the pinfall and the 1,2,3. Punk offers Miz another title match at anytime he wants it because Punk is the best in the world. But here comes the other competitor from last night as Sheamus came from the back to a huge pop! Sheamus calls Miz an arse before he is quick to mention that he still hasn’t received his 1 on 1 rematch for the WWE Title and that if Punk is keen to offer out title shots he is keen to accept his tonight, a statement which the crowd are definitely on board with. As the microphone is raised to Punk’s mouth Miz interrupts with the opinion that Sheamus can’t get the job done anyway, this leads to a stare down between the two men to the delight of Punk who smiles. But what’s this? Here comes Mark Henry accompanied by AW down to the ring. The smooth talkin’ AW mentions that it’s time for some people to enter the Hall Of Pain and that his client Mark Henry is lookin’ for some gold. Henry now takes the mic and reminds the superstars of just how strong he is as he would hold the World Heavyweight Championship for a period of 2011. Henry tells Sheamus to get to the back of the line and if Miz wants to debate this with him to go right ahead cause’ he’s waiting. CM Punk is quick to mention that there seems to be some disagreements here and that maybe they should just go ahead and fight it out. Punk says he’ll leave them to it but as he turns around he is clobbered by The Miz from behind, it’s all kicked off! Sheamus and Mark Henry are brawling in the centre of the ring as Miz is stomping on Punk in the corner. Sheamus is holding off the big man as AW urges Henry to fight back in the ring, Sheamus charges at Henry but is caught and nailed with a World’s Strongest

Slam with a sickening thud. This catches the attention of The Miz who turns with shock and out of pure fear charges at Henry, only to suffer the same fate as Sheamus. Henry sizes up Punk, but the champion is showing some fight as he hits Henry with a few kicks before picking up his gold and smashing Henry in the side of the head with it, somehow he is still standing though! Punk gets ready to deliver another blow but is hoisted up and crushed into the canvas with a WSS. Henry defiantly beats his chest as AW enters the ring and picks up the WWE title. This is before handing it to Henry as he raises it above his head to some heat from the crowd, this would take us out to commercial.

So Henry has entered the feud between CM Punk, The Miz and Sheamus? As far as I'm conserned, their is two possible out comes.. The Miz v. Sheamus v. Mark Henry in a number 1 contender match for the Title or a Fatal Four Way. I'd love to see a Fatal Four Way. The match sounds interesting. I'm wondering how each man will be able to team with his tag team partner.

We return to some big news, news that broke during the break that later tonight we’ll see CM Punk team up with Sheamus to take on The Miz and Mark Henry in tag team action. Speaking of tag team’s here comes one now to the ring, they are the Tag Team Champions, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks. The pair saunter down the ramp to some big heat, they’re dressed to impress tonight as they both don grey suits. It looks as though the pair will be on commentary for our next bout. With that “Move” hits through the PA system and the Prime Time Players accompanied by Kofi Kingston hit the ring to some heat, most directed at Kofi. They stand in the ring shouting their mouth’s off before Evan Bourne and R-Truth make their entrance. This match would feature some innovative offense from Truth and Bourne however due to interference from Kofi Kingston by distracting Truth; Darren Young was able to roll up Bourne for a 3 count. Truth and Bourne were then blindsided by the three men, beating them badly. Kofi would hit a Trouble in Paradise on both men and he then grabbed a microphone to give his feelings. Kofi would mockingly say why, annoying the crowd. Before he could give his explanation, CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAA! Booker T is here, the man who Kofi hit with a Trouble in Paradise last night, Booker is met by a monstrous pop as he charges to the ring and cleans house. Nailing all three men with lefts and rights. Booker hits a devastating kick to the chin on Kofi; he is quickly dragged out to the outside though by his cohorts. Booker is livid as he flings his suit jacket to the outside before he performs a spinaroonie and exits the ring. Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks who still sit on commentary are bemused by this and say they may as well head into the ring.

So the Prime Time Players are in line for a tag title shot against Reks and Hawkins. That should be good. Loved how your giving Kofi this heel turn. I have always wanted some one to succesfully book him. Kofi is looking like a major heel. Don't drop the ball with him. Seriously Booker, retire. Booker T cleared the ring of Kofi Kingston and the Prime Time Players? Wonder how that will turn out. I'm thinking a rematch is in the works.

The pair sarcastically mentions they were here to congratulate the winners but it seems they can’t now. Tyler Reks says they should’ve zip lined down to the ring again and this prompts Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara to come down to the ring. Rey asks if this is a joke to them, they should be honoured about being Tag Team champions, not happy about their entrance. Rey says on both occasions they have faced it was either a mistake by them or Hawkins and Reks cheating to stop them winning the titles. Tyler is quick to interrupt stating Rey is just bitter because of his knee and that they will face them again at any time for the titles, just to embarrass them again. Here come Primo and Epico though along with Rosa Mendes. Epico and Primo enter the ring and talk in Spanish however the last word is English Luchardors, BAM! Primo and Epico along with the Tag champs beat down Rey and Cara, Mysterio’s knee seems to be the main target of both team’s assault. Jimmy and Jey Uso are out for the save; the pair storm the ring and fight off the 4 men. Jimmy and Jey clear the ring! The four men along with Rosa are furious as they scream back at The Usos in the ring who help Sin Cara to his feet, BAM! Jey Uso hits Cara with a Superkick out of nowhere! The crowd are in shock as it seems The Usos are taking no prisoners as they symbolise the titles around their waists to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Jerry Lawler is impressed by the pair and thinks the champions have got a massive target on their backs.

Amazing Segment with some great teams. Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara get beaten down by Curt Hawkins, Tyler Reks, Primo and Epico.. then The Uso's made the save. I started sencing an 8 man tag match. Rey/Cara and USO's v. Hawkins/Reks/Primo/Epico then Uso's turn on the high flyers. That looks really good. I'm expecting a four corners match. The tag division looks really strong.


Kane:
Mercy...

Kane calls out as clips of beat down’s in the WWE are shown.

Kane:
Mercy is something I do not show.

Kane electrocutes Shane McMahon’s testicles.

Kane:
Showing mercy separates the weak from the strong.

And now Kane debuts at Badd Blood 97’.

Kane:
I am the Big Red Machine and on June 24th, I will show No Mercy!



Amazing promo! Really excited about it. Good job with it. Wonder what Kane will have to do.. Maybe he will face Alberto Del Rio in a Inferno Match... Book it man.


Our commentary team can’t wait for No Mercy in a couple of weeks, they are quick to point out that Wade Barrett showed no mercy last night as he decimated and forced Chris Jericho to submit. They are mentioning this as here comes Barrett now to some big heat. Wade whose beard is growing at an alarming rate saunters down the ramp and enters the ring before he calmly asks for a microphone, he is full of smiles here tonight. Wade goes the route of saying I told you so to the crowd regarding his promise to make Jericho submit, Wade says that he has taken out Jericho thus starting his barrage. Wade wants to put everyone on standby that Jericho is the first of many to be ended by him, but here comes Y2J! He is battered and bruised as he struggles down to the ring sporting his skinny jeans and leather jacket. Jericho admits Wade has beat him up pretty bad but that time he planned on retiring has now gone completely, Wade has reinvigorated Y2J and Jericho wants to lay the challenge out there. Due to them being tied 1 for 1 Jericho wants it to end when he is medically cleared to compete at No Mercy. Barrett is smug however and questions his judgement, stating that maybe the loss of blood has got to him and if he really wants to get back in the ring with him. Jericho says he doesn’t want this but he needs it! This receives a big pop as Barrett rubs his grizzly chin...BAM! Wade smacks Jericho square in the face, Barrett is taking advantage of Jericho’s well being as he brutalises him. He stomps on him, grounding him at every attempt to get up. Wade is enjoying this as he laughs evilly, Wade now exits the ring and picks up a steel chair. Wade smacks Jericho repeatedly as he gets back in the ring, he rags Jericho’s clothing off him and he smacks him again with the chair. Wade brings Jericho now to his feet and hoists him up, WASTELAND! Barrett has destroyed Jericho again. The heat is unrivalled as Wade leaves the ring; our commentary team are stunned by the brutality as we head for a break.

Not really feeling this rivarly. Chris Jericho is a major star and big player who is one of the greatest wrestlers ever is now getting squashed by a rookie in Wade Barrett

We return and are backstage immediately in the trainer’s room; Chris Jericho is laid across the table as the doctor places an ice pack on his spine. In comes Triple H to a massive pop from the crowd as he looks concerned. He is straight to the point and asks if Jericho will be in good enough condition to compete at No Mercy, Jericho’s facial reaction isn’t good as the doctor just shakes his head. Now William Regal comes into the scene checking on his good friend Jericho. Triple H tells Chris to get some rest and as soon as he’s fit enough whenever it may be he will face Barrett.

William Regal? Wonder what he is doing maybe a special guest ref? Maybe Chris's replacement in the feud?


Now for some tag team action, CM Punk comes out to a massive pop still feeling the effects from earlier tonight. Now his partner Sheamus arrives, this before The Miz and Mark Henry accompanied by AW make their respective entrances. Miz and Henry do not seem to be coherent with each other after Henry took out his partner earlier on. Despite this they work well as a team as they try and fend off the champ and Sheamus. They successfully dominate Punk for the majority of the contest until a lapse in concentration by The Miz allowed Punk to make the hot tag to Sheamus. The Celtic Warrior was gunning for Henry and got his wish as Miz squirmed to make a tag. Henry and Sheamus the two behemoths would trade blows until Sheamus took advantage and with amazing strength he bodyslammed Henry, Miz would tag his partner on the shoulder as he rolled to the outside and Sheamus whose eyes were wide with rage would tag Punk and head after Henry. Whilst the two men in the ring contested Henry and Sheamus brawled near the announce table, Sheamus had the advantage until AW made a brief distraction, catching a fierce punch for his troubles. BAM! This time though allowed Henry to steady himself and hit the unaware Sheamus before lifting him up and nailing a World’s Strongest Slam through the announce table! Our commentary team would be in awe as they threw their arms up in shock, meanwhile in the ring CM Punk who was on the top rope would be distracted by the awesome thud and Miz would take advantage tripping him off the top rope, forcing him to land awkwardly on his neck. The Miz would drag Punk to his feet and hit a Skull Crushing Finale for the victory. Post-match he would quickly exit the ring, it’s clear he wants nothing to do with Mark Henry who would be congratulated by the vibrant AW.

Glad The Miz picked up the victory. Surely he should be #1 contender.

Backstage now with a smug looking Wade Barrett, he would be confronted by Tyson Kidd briefly questioning Barrett’s manhood; Wade however would brush off these comments and continue to walk through the corridors. This until Triple H who is enraged meets Barrett and calls him a smug punk, Hunter wants Barrett to get what’s coming to him and when Chris is ready he has been guaranteed a match with Wade. Wade is on the money however when he points out that after No Mercy he and Jericho may be on alternate brands. Again to a big pop Triple H states he runs the WWE now and he WILL face Jericho when he says.

Looks like Wade Barrett will continue trying to find lupolls to get out of the match with Chris Jericho.

Ringside now where Brodus Clay makes his entrance he is accompanied by Zack Ryder and his dancers, Cameron and Naomi. Clay is ready and looks extremely focused, out now to some pretty decent heat Damien Sandow along with The Big Show. Sandow however is quick to talk about the newly enlightened Big Show and that he is tired of Clay and Ryder’s ignorance too. Also he’s tired of just being looked at as a giant, Sandow announces that Show will now go by his real name “The Enlightened” Paul Wight. Wight wearing his old attire from 2002 of black trousers and a black vest entered the ring to begin his match with Clay. These two big men would fight around the ring in typical big man style, definitely not a technical classic. The finish would come when Clay was distracted by Sandow and Ryder brawling on the outside, he would turn around then into a knockout right hand and would be pinned. Wight would quickly exit the ring and help his new friend and enlightener Sandow and bring Ryder into the ring, and another right hand would be delivered before Sandow picked up a microphone and stated that Clay and Ryder have just been enlightened. Cameron and Naomi would be in tears on the outside as Striker on commentary questioned who could stop these two from the path of enlightening. The two men standing triumphant would take us out to commercial.

I like the new Big Show.. The Brodus Clay, Zack Ryder, Big Show and Damien Sandow thing seems all over the place. I cant work out who is feuding with who.

Upon return to RAW we would be greeted with a video package hyping up the 1000th episode of RAW. This then lead to Lawler and Striker discussing their favourite moments of RAW. We headed backstage to a room lit in eerie red lighting; Kane would sit alone in a chair to a huge pop, he would slowly scan the room. This is until his attention is diverted by a knock on his door as Stephanie McMahon entered and informed Kane his match with John Cena is coming up in a little while, Kane would stare without emotion before simply asking of the whereabouts’ of Alberto Del Rio the Intercontinental Champion. Stephanie’s response was not one that Kane appreciated as she stated he is not here tonight. Kane was livid and began flinging the chair around the room forcing Stephanie to quickly scatter. The camera would quickly leave the room heading to a concerned Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler.

Bring in the monster Kane! Woo hoo. Kane is looking awesome in this Book this thread. Cant wait to see what you do with him.

Here comes some big heat! Daniel Bryan and AJ make their way down to the ring, there are no YES! Chants from Bryan tonight even though a majority of the fans are chanting it. He and AJ quickly enter the ring and surprisingly AJ is the one with the microphone, AJ says that she is so sorry for what happened last night and that it doesn’t change the fact that Daniel is a better man than Randy Orton. Better than the man who would attack an innocent girl like AJ, AJ finishes her apology before Bryan is handed the microphone as he thinks about his decision. The crowd are in chants of NO! And a very large ****! Chant. Bryan says nothing and opens his arms wide allowing AJ to come in for a warm embrace to some massive heat. Daniel releases the hug before he vents his feelings. His main feeling being that last night despite AJ’s mistake he wasn’t going to beat Orton as he suffered a serious injury during the match. Randy hit him with a RKO early into the bout and Bryan uses this as a excuse as it severely hurt his neck. The crowd aren’t buying this bullshit and neither is Orton who comes out to a big pop, he talks on his way down to the ring, first addressing AJ saying that she got in the way so she got hurt. Orton wanted revenge from February and he has that now. Orton wants to now avert his attention to the big one the WWE title, Bryan however is furious that Orton has completely blown him off. Daniel also wants the title so that he and AJ can become the real power couple, but Orton and he aren’t finished he suggests why don’t both men face off not just to finish this but to become the number 1 contender. Orton seems on board and he stares coldly into AJ’s eyes however she smiles back into the eyes of The Viper, this proves a vital distraction as Orton is clobbered by Bryan. Bryan is going for punishment, RKO! Orton hits an RKO out of nowhere! Bryan is out, Orton is wriggling about and he wants to go for a Punt! AJ is stood frozen not knowing what to do as she watches Orton go for a Punt...AJ runs in the way of Randy stopping him in his tracks. The crowd are booing ferociously and chanting RKO, Randy backs away before falling and pounding the mat putting the fear of death into AJ who cowers away. Randy slithers backwards out of the ring to a huge ovation as AJ cries in the corner of the ring. Matt Striker is quick to mention that things are not finished between these two men as Randy heads to the back with his theme music playing through the PA system.

This rivalry is sure not ending soon. Randy Orton is setting his Apex eyes on AJ Lee now? AJ, you better run. Hoping for a good old fasion punt to come out of this.


We are now briefly cut away to the backstage were John Cena stands with what seems like new WWE merchandise, a royal blue shirt is what he wears with Ruthless Aggression written across it in red blocked writing. John is in the locker room readying himself for what will be a brawl with The Big Red Machine Kane. We are now to be treated with a diva’s contest featuring Layla teaming with Natalya to take on Beth Phoenix and Eve. All four make their entrances and Layla who is still taped up is struggling as Beth continuously beats her down dominating her with brute force. Suddenly Layla would make a swift tag and allowed Natalya to enter the ring and clean house. She would knock Eve off the apron and in trademark fashion would scoop Beth’s legs and lock in a Sharpshooter! Beth would have no choice but to tap! Upon their victory Natalya helped Layla to her feet in the ring and took a hold of the Women’s title from the referee. Natalya raised the title high into the air before handing it to the British diva, clearly she’s set on the title.

I really hate Diva's so not reviewing.

We’re back and it’s time for our main event Kane makes his entrance to a big pop and the big red machine is ready for action. Now John Cena enters again to a massive pop, the biggest of the evening. In spite of the fact there are a few anti-Cena fans in attendance. The bell rings and John Cena is showing brutality we rarely see from him, John is delivering harsh strikes to Kane before he is met himself with an uppercut. Kane is now in control and hits a big boot to Cena sending him to the outside, Kane follows to the outside and whips Cena into the steel steps shoulder first forcing a yelp in pain. Kane throws Cena back into the ring and follows on only to be scooped up and hit with an AA! John makes a cover, only for Kane to power out! John can’t believe it and he is looking to finish this now. He waits for Kane to get to his feet and NO! Kane hits a right hand. Both men would continue to trade offense until the finish of this match as Cody Rhodes who claimed he was bringing the golden age back appeared from the crowd, Cody wearing his grey t-shirt would distract Cena who ultimately turned around into a chokeslam and was pinned for the victory. Kane’s exit was unnoticed as Rhodes entered the ring and lay down by Cena with a microphone in hand. Cody mentioned how Cena may have been right about taking time off because he just can’t seem to get it done anymore. Cody says that if he thinks its bad now he is in for hell. Cody is ready to restore professional wrestling as he brings Cena to his knees and hits him in the head with the microphone with a sickening buzz. Cody brings John up and hits a Crossrhodes! The crowd sit in stunned silence as Rhodes grabs the microphone and simply states he is the Rhodes to the future. RAW would go off the air with Cody smiling at the battered body of Cena in the ring with Smoke & Mirrors blasting through the speakers. Matt Striker states that Rhodes is one serious wrestler as we go off the air...

Kane won! Kane won! Amazing push. Kane is at the moment my favourite wrestler in your Book this. Push him to the moon. I think John Cena v. Cody Rhodes is written in stone for No Mercy.

WWE MONDAY NIGHT RAW - 4 June, 2012

Monday night RAW is live from the Bi Lo Center in Greenville, South Carolina, the show opens with a recap video of last Monday. It documents the altercation between Cody Rhodes and John Cena beginning with the verbal exchange earlier in the evening this is before it ends emphatically with Cody hitting a Crossrhodes. His words ring out about being the Rhodes to the future with Cena left lying. This is before we cut to Triple H who is sat at his office desk with documents titled future Smackdown GM written across it, the Smackdown GM will be named tonight! We now cross live to the arena...

A huge ovation from tonight's crowd as we are introduced by Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler, they inquisitively ask who the future Smackdown general manager could be. This is before they confirm that Cody Rhodes and John Cena will both participate in pick your poison matches later tonight, with a hint of sarcasm Striker says Jerry could be a poison. Some big heat in the arena now as Cody Rhodes' theme hits, he saunters from the back wearing his grey t-shirt with Rhodes To The Future printed on it, he has a microphone in hand as he paces across the stage shushing the crowd, which of course makes them louder and angrier. Cody states he is out here to do a noble thing and give John Cena some notice about his opponent to give him a chance to prepare. Cody's condescending tone isn't going down well with the crowd. Cody states that John Cena's opponent tonight will be Mark Henry! The crowd pop huge for this blockbuster match before Cody continues, mentioning that Cena will probably not pay him the same respect and will give him a surprise opponent which he doesn't mind as he knows he can beat anyone in this company. Jerry Lawler is quick to mention our blockbuster main event again before being cut off by a huge ovation as John Cena appears behind Rhodes who doesn't take long to turn into a huge takedown from Cena! The crowd are electric as Cena pummels Cody to the delight of the crowd at the top of the ramp, somehow Cody escapes and begins to run down the ramp towards the ring, he is however being followed by a livid Cena who smacks him in the back forcing him to roll down. John is after Cody who crawls into the ring and makes it to his feet before turning into a right hand from Cena, he whips Cody into the ropes but misses a clothesline as Rhodes springboards off the ropes and hits a Disaster Kick hitting John square in the face, John is down and Cody now gets on top of his rival and he begins pummeling him, clearly Cody is giving as good as he gets. He's not on offense for long as Triple H appears on the top of the ramp, the man who is running not only RAW but this company. He is ordering in the troops as several WWE workers and road agents storm the ring where Cena has retaken the advantage and has Cody in the corner driving his shoulder into his gut repeatedly before he is pulled away from Rhodes, the fans are crazy as both superstars are kept in respective corners of the ring. Let them fight rings out from our capacity crowd before Triple H can be heard breathing heavily to test the microphone before screaming out, his orders are loud and clear telling the two men to stop immediately or risk suspension. Triple H is quick to yell that he can't be dealing with these two tonight and he is not messing about. Cena is intent on continuing, Rhodes seems to be enticing him, inviting the hot headed Cena to take another shot at him. John however despite his attempts is kept back by numerous co-workers as we are sent to commercial by our commentary team.

We return to the arena where Matt Striker and Jerry Lawler discuss what just went down, a video replay is shown along with this as Cena is labeled as psychotic. Our team are quick to hype up the rest of tonight's blockbuster show, our main event John Cena vs. Mark Henry, a debate to take place between all of the Tag Teams involved in last week's altercation and an update on Chris Jericho's health and the announcement of the NEW Smackdown General Manager. Our first match of the evening is up next as per request of Ricardo Rodriguez! The sharply dressed announcer comes out to Alberto Del Rio's theme music along with the Intercontinental Champion to some decent heat, Del Rio dressed extravagantly seems to be trying to show Ricardo his Armbreaker as they walk down to the ring, Ricardo wearing the trunks that belong to Del Rio as they enter the ring a small video pops up in the corner of our screen. The video shows Ricardo furious backstage demanding to be put in the ring with Kane after he was Tombstoned by the Big Red Machine at Judgement Day. The video concludes and we're back to Ricardo mocking the crowd in the centre of the ring, before a BOOM Kane's red light's take over the arena as he appears at the top of the ramp, he slowly walks down to the ring tilting his head with that eerie welder's mask. He stops before the apron and adjusts the glove on his hand before climbing over the top rope and standing in the middle of the ring, Ricardo out of fear is now outside the ring discussing strategy with his employer. Kane raises his arm's into the air and forces his pyro to explode from the four corners of the ring, after which he peels his outer mask off and flips back his hair waiting as Ricardo slowly walks up the steps, clearly regretting his decision about challenging Kane.

Our match begins with Ricardo trying to size up Kane and trying to kick the big man in the legs, to no avail though as Kane just dominates Ricardo whilst his employer and Intercontinental Champion watches on from the outside. Kane basically hammers away at Ricardo for a number of minutes until Del Rio pulls his announcer out of the ring and begin to walk up the ramp to a chorus of boo's. Kane however still irate and hell bent on the Intercontinental Champion follows both men and grabs both of them before bringing them back to the ring and rolling them under the bottom rope. Kane is slow to re enter which costs him as Del Rio and Rodriguez take advantage, they kick Kane while he's down. Del Rio has his arm and locks in an Armbreaker, wrenching back on Kane's arm. Ricardo exits the ring and brings in a Steel Chair before smacking Kane's body with it whilst Del Rio keeps the hold applied. Del Rio eventually releases the hold and he and Ricardo are quick to exit the ring and head up the ramp, Del Rio is sure to pick up his title belt which is left on the floor as he and Ricardo laugh as they head behind the curtain. Kane in the ring moves towards the turnbuckle and using one arm gets onto his feet before he screams with rage shouting Del Rio! A camera is quick to go backstage where Del Rio and Ricardo roam the area, their laughs are cut short as the camera turns out to show Triple H to a big pop! Triple H is soon to speak and question if Del Rio thinks he and his lackey are smart, Kane apparently has a rematch for the Intercontinental Championship and Hunter is making it happen, at No Mercy it will be a Handicap No Disqualification Match for the title as Del Rio and Ricardo will take on Kane and if Ricardo is pinned or made to submit Del Rio will still lose the title! The crowd are ecstatic as Hunter brushes off Del Rio's shoulder and walks down the corridor leaving Del Rio to lament Ricardo for forcing him into this match. Up next their will be a Tag Team division debate, any team willing to stake a claim for the titles have their chance to speak next! A RAW 1000 advertisement airs again hyping up the big one for July 23, 2012!

We are now back at ringside where podiums are set up in the ring, the ring is also decked in red as Matt Striker says that we saw something similar to this back in February before the Elimination Chamber PPV. And who better than to start this debate than the Tag Team Champions themselves Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks who come out to some heat, Hawkins wearing a leather blazer and skinny jeans carries his title over his shoulder whilst Tyler Reks wears a shirt and tie along with some dress pants. They're ridiculed by the crowd upon their entry into the ring as they laugh at the podium's set up. Both men place their belts on the podium before they both sit on opposite turnbuckle's with microphone's in hand. Hawkins opens with a line about how stupid this debate is and that the champions shouldn't even have to attend this crap. Curt says it doesn't matter who they face for their titles but that's how it will remain THEIR titles. Reks now speaks and says they might as well hear what the other team's have to say for themselves and the pair look to the stage waiting...

They're met with the pair of Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara to a great pop, there is no pyro tonight for them as they just head to the ring occasionally slapping hands with a few fans, upon their entry Rey Mysterio stands behind a podium with Cara looking at the champions. Curt is quick to say that the 2 time beaten Tag Team number 1 contenders are here which isn't met with a happy response from Rey who promises that those titles will be theirs. Rey and Cara glance to the fans in attendance before Rey continues, Rey knows that the other team's may not agree with this but he and Cara are the perfect team to take those titles and shut up the champions. Things look set to kick off as Curt and Tyler remove from their respective turnbuckles and begin to walk towards Rey and Cara who look ready to fight them off until the interruption from Jimmy and Jey, The Uso's who receive a mixed reaction based on their save and then attack on Rey and Cara. Jimmy has the microphone and speaks while he and his brother walk down to the ring, Jimmy says last week was just what they had to do to get noticed around here and if you want the perfect team don't look at Rey and Cara look at the them. not only are they brothers but they are born into this business, born to be Tag Team champions! Both men have entered the ring now before Primo and Epico's music hits to little reaction, they're accompanied by Rosa who has a microphone and speaks in Spanish upon their entry to the ring only to be interrupted by the smooth talkin' AW who with his ear microphone in he talks up the two men who accompany him to the ring, Darren Young and Titus O'Neill the Prime Time Players! The pair sport their own merchandise as they swagger down the ramp ahead of AW. AW himself talks about how you're not just looking at the master promoter but you are looking at the future Tag Team champions which is met by some smug facials from Hawkins and Reks who are unimpressed. The Truth has set us free from the babbling of AW! R-Truth and Evan Bourne are here to a decent pop, they have no microphone and look set to go for the Prime Time Players as they enter the ring, AW can be heard talking loudly on the microphone as select teams begin to mouth off at each other until the light's turn to black leaving Matt Striker to ask what now? That eerie guitar rift hits and out comes Bray Wyatt! Again with the lights dimmed he is followed by what he calls his family. The delusional man has stopped the squabbling as all eyes are on him. Wyatt apparently sees potential, potential members for his family who we can all see. Wyatt reaches the ring now and rolls into the fray, the tag teams have all spread to the side as Wyatt randomly spins before laughing into the microphone. Bray asks who would like to join his family, this receives no response and Bray seems to have his eyes set on someone. Evan Bourne standing by the turnbuckle is the man in sight, Wyatt wanders over to him and smiles in his face before whispering you into the microphone, Wyatt attempts to cradle Evan's head but is met with a right hand that makes him hit the deck only for him to roll out of the ring. Bray looks livid for a moment only to compose himself and laugh into the microphone while nursing his jaw. He backs up the ramp with his holograms backing up too. Suddenly the lights are back on and all the teams are looking to each other bewildered and it's all blew up! Curt Hawkins sets it off by hitting the first punch on Rey Mysterio, both of those teams are at it whilst Truth/Bourne go at it with the Prime Time Players and Primo and Epico with The Uso's. There is an all out brawl now, everyone is mixing it up and the podiums set up have been knocked to the side. A voice shouts out now from the back a woman's voice, Stephanie McMahon appears to a large cheer! Stephanie says Triple H thought that the team's would be able to sort this out like adults but it appears they can't. Triple H has scheduled a tournament to crown our number 1 contenders. However there are 5 contenders in the ring so 1 team has been formed. The two men are not happy about it but have decided to do it in a bid to get air time. "Here To Show The World" hits and out comes Dolph Ziggler flaunting about on the stage to some decent heat his music is abruptly cut off as out comes Tyson Kidd to his old New Foundation theme music. He receives a decent pop as he shakes hands with Stephanie McMahon and raises his arm into the air. His partner looks away disgustedly shouting why before the teams in the ring are shown. Matt Striker mentions the strong dislike between these two men but obviously their will for success has taken over. They are both now in pursuit of the tag team titles. They are the last shot before we go to a break.

RAW returns with a brief recap of tonight's opening segment. We are hyped up the following 3 things, John Cena vs. Mark Henry, Cody Rhodes vs. An opponent of John Cena's choice and the announcement of the new Smackdown General Manager. According to Matt Striker, Stephanie McMahon is running things tonight whilst Triple H is making his decision about who the new Smackdown General Manager will be. Apparently the 5 final candidates are all backstage and are eagerly awaiting the response. But now there is going to be some in ring action, and out first to some big heat is Kofi Kingston! The new member of All World is accompanied by AW on his way to the ring, he doesn't take part in his usual boom, boom, boom and instead just enters the ring before shaking hands with AW. His opponent is a man he has history with, a man who comes out to a huge pop Randy Orton! With his theme blasting through the PA system. Orton with no emotion walks down the ramp and coldly stares at AW on the outside. This is before he climbs the steps and enters the ring, he brushes off Kofi Kingston on his way to the corner where he climbs up and poses for the cameras. He then heads off the top and he waits for the bell.

With AW barking at Randy his client Kofi Kingston nearly takes advantage with a roll up that proves to be null due to Orton kicking out. Kofi and Randy go on to face off in a closely contested match where Kofi stuck to his high flying style with Randy methodically slowing him down. Randy would hit his signature rope hung DDT, thinking that this match was nearly over. But suddenly a crazed fan jumps the rail claiming that she loves Randy! The small brunette tries to enter the ring before being held back by security members, it's AJ! The little minx has distracted Orton who looks at her being dragged away while she grins. Orton turns back to the match and turns into a Trouble In Paradise from Kofi Kingston who makes a cover. And picks up a massive win! He's quick to exit the ring with AW's help and to head up the ramp. On his way he is passed by Daniel Bryan to some big heat. Bryan with his goat face wanders down the ramp and to the barricade where security have AJ, he politely asks them to release this fan and let her into the ring which after deliberation they do. Bryan with a firm grasp on his girlfriend's hand escorts her up to the steps and into the ring where Randy is just getting to his feet. He is quickly pegged back down with a kick from Bryan to the chin, all whilst chanting YES! Bryan pointing to his chest shouts WWE Champion before slapping on a YES! Lock, he wrenches back on Orton's face while AJ lies next to Orton with a sick smile. Bryan eventually releases the hold before exiting the ring and heading to the back along with AJ. The pair scan back to the ring where Orton is down before we cut to the following...

Kane:
Mercy...

Kane calls out as clips of beat down’s in the WWE are shown.

Kane:
Mercy is something I do not show.

Kane electrocutes Shane McMahon’s testicles.

Kane:
Showing mercy separates the weak from the strong.

And now Kane debuts at Badd Blood 97’

Kane:
I am the Big Red Machine and on June 24th, I will show No Mercy!

We return back to the arena and are backstage with Josh Matthews standing by with Stephanie McMahon, before Josh can even speak they're interrupted by Daniel Bryan and AJ who burst onto the screen. Daniel is quick and straight to the point by asking if he's going to get his WWE title match against CM Punk, Stephanie ponders the thought and says she doesn't like the stunt that they just pulled but Bryan will get a number one contender match at No Mercy. This is met with some big heat as Bryan and AJ react cheerfully before going to walk away, only for Stephanie to call him back and state that match is against Randy Orton! Daniel is downhearted but AJ consoles him by hugging him as we go back to Josh Matthews and Stephanie. Josh asks what else she has planned whilst she has been given control of RAW and she states that she has made a match for No Mercy which we will find out about next as a contract signing will take place in the ring. With that we go to ringside where are contract table is set up with Jerry Lawler wondering what this match is. Well we're about to find out as Stephanie McMahon makes her entrance to a big pop, she struts down to the ring with purpose in her smart business suit before taking a microphone from the table. She asks for Wade Barrett to come down to the ring, and after a brief wait he does wearing a suit of his own. Wade shows no acknowledgement of the fans who jeer him wildly as he enters the ring, he eyeballs Stephanie McMahon before taking a microphone from the table. His music abruptly cuts as he questions why he is out here, he knows he can't face Jericho due to the beating he gave him last week and that he will likely be out for a very long time. Wade wants whoever he will be facing to know he will end them like he did to Chri- BIG POP! Chris Jericho's theme music hits to a loud ovation and to Wade's disgust, Jericho doesn't look good as he uses crutches to slowly get down the ramp. He slaps hands with a number of the fans on the front row before struggling into the ring. Barrett is clearly enjoying this as his rival scowls at him before Stephanie McMahon hands him a microphone. Chris doesn’t say a word as Wade butts in, he mocks Chris asking what is he seeing before him. If Chris wants to go ahead and sign a contract Wade will gladly end his career. Stephanie says however it is not Chris Jericho who he will be facing at No Mercy, but a representative hand picked by Jericho. Wade looks confused as Chris has found his voice. Chris wants Barrett to know that he will get him. It may be next year or even the year after that but he will get him, and when he does Wade will never, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeveerrr be the same again! Barrett wants Jericho to admit, admit that Wade has beaten him badly enough for him to become a shell of himself. Wade is in Chris' face now but Stephanie calms the situation by asking Chris to name his opponent. Barrett backs away looking at Jericho intriguingly as Chris says it's only the WWE and the doctors stopping him from fighting Wade at No Mercy. But the man who will face him thinks that Wade needs to be taken down a peg or two. Jericho welcomes out the man who will face Wade, his good friend William Regal! Regal's music hits and he receives a decent pop. The fellow Brit walks down to the ramp wearing a freshly pressed black suit and enters the fray, shaking hands with Jericho. Barrett is bemused and asks if that's it William Regal!? Wade laughs as he signs the contract putting pen to paper, Regal asks for the microphone from Jericho and speaks directly to Wade. Regal says that Wade has hurt as a good friend of his and that at No Mercy he will teach him a lesson, a lesson in wrestling. Barrett responds by asking who Regal really is, Jericho may have had some past success but what has Regal ever done, a European Champion and what!? Barrett has accomplished in his eyes more now than Regal has in his entire career. Barrett can't wait to end Regal as he did to Jericho and he now pushes the contract across the table to Regal who egged on by Jericho signs on the dotted line. Stephanie thanks the gentleman in the ring and cannot wait to see their match, Wade launches the table to the side and goes nose to nose with William, Stephanie exits the ring and Jericho stands alongside Regal on his crutch. OUCH! Barrett smacks Jericho, that's an injured man! Regal and Barrett are going at it now, Wade is dominating him using fierce punches to the ribs of William. Barrett tears Regal's blazer off before launching him down to the canvas. He has set his sights now on Jericho who is down. He slowly walks towards Jericho and brings him onto his feet, trash talking him. Regal is up and is rummaging in his pocket, BRASS KNUCKLES! Regal has the brass, he cocks his hand ready as Wade hears the crowd's cheers and turns around BAM! Regal nails Wade in the jaw, he is out of it! William is quick to get to Chris Jericho who has fell back to the floor, Regal helps him onto his feet and shares a smile with him as Wade lies motionless. Regal's music hits and we go out to commercial.

{Commercials}

We return to RAW as Jerry Lawler reacts to the contract signing what just went down here tonight with William Regal sparking out Wade Barrett with the Brass Knuckles. We head backstage and catch up with Barrett who is nursing his jaw. Josh Matthews asks what his thoughts on facing Regal are to which Wade replies that he made his thoughts clear earlier in the ring. Wade acts shocked about the brass knuckles and states he is a bare knuckle fighter and could do more damage with his bare fists than those brass knucks, Regal better watch his back according to Wade. Back to ringside and to some big heat is Cody Rhodes! Rhodes makes his way down to the ring ready for his poison match as we watch a replay of his brawl with John Cena earlier tonight. We pan back to the ring where Rhodes looks eagerly at the stage waiting and waiting....CM Punk! His opponent is the WWE Champion CM Punk! The champ is out to a rapturous response as he kneels at the top of the stage. Punk shouts that it's clobberin' time before HEY! The Miz! Miz bounds into Punk from behind and begins beating him down. Miz is now joined by Cody Rhodes from the ring and the pair beat down Punk before tossing him inside. Miz claims that he should be WWE Champion as he heads back up the ramp whilst in the ring, the bell is rung.

Punk is a resilient champion! He fights off Cody Rhodes so hard, kicking out of an Alabama Slam and a Disaster Kick before getting in a flurry of offense. Punk would deliver his high knee and bulldog combo before heading up to the top rope and hitting his Elbow Drop! Rhodes however kicked out again! He got to his feet and headed for a breather in the corner, ANOTHER HIGH KNEE-NO! Rhodes has him and hits an Alabama Slam, he makes a cover and uses the ropes for leverage. HE STEALS ONE! Cody Rhodes has pinned the WWE Champion. Rhodes is quick to exit the ring as Punk's injuries before the match clearly hampered him here tonight. I'm sure he will be looking for revenge next week. Matt Striker asks if it's just a matter of time until Punk loses that title as Miz after taking out Christian has been like a different man. We are left to ponder those words as we cut to another RAW 1000 video package.

According to Matt Striker on our return Brodus Clay will get his hands on Damien Sandow next week inside a Steel Cage on Monday Night RAW! Jerry Lawler is happy with this move by Triple H and says it means Paul Wight can't get involved to help out his so called enlightener Sandow. But right now it's time for our Main Event, Mark Henry will take on John Cena! Out first is Henry accompanied by All World, they all egg on their man as he bounces down to the ring to some big heat for this faction. Henry entered Sheamus so it seems into the Hall Of Pain last week and wants to induct John Cena here tonight. Well here comes Cena who gives a stern salute before running down to the ring, he is right at Henry and the match has begun.

John Cena showed all of his aggression tonight on Mark Henry however his losing streak would continue! Mark Henry would beat Cena after a distraction from his posse allowing him to hit a WSS! Mark Henry however wanted to assert more dominance and he and his posse began to beat down Cena. And here again comes Cody Rhodes, Rhodes sprints from the back to the ring and helps this beating being put on Cena here tonight. All five men beat Cena within an inch of his life until a massive pop is heard as Sheamus with a Steel Chair in hand emerges from the back and bounds down to the ring. Clearly he has issues with Henry who beat him down last week, BOOKER T! Booker T follows down Sheamus and these two men are fighting them all off in the middle of the ring. They all escape however apart from Titus O'Neill who is left to feel their wrath with a Brogue Kick and Scissors Kick hit on him defiantly. Booker would help John Cena to his feet to a warm applause, John wound up with anger stared at Cody Rhodes at the top of the ramp as we cut to our final commercial break. The Smackdown General Manager will be named next!

{Commercials}

What an ovation as out comes the man running not only Monday Night RAW but the WWE as it stands Triple H! The Game has a smart business suit on as he walks down to the ring with a clipboard in hand. Upon the capture of a microphone he tells us how hard his decision has been tonight. He says it's been tough doing basically two jobs since Kelly has been taken, that receives a big pop! Hunter says all five candidates gave great pitches on who should get the job but after sitting in his office all night he has made his decision. He welcomes out the new Smackdown General Manager as we look to the stage and wait.

…

"YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME"

Oh my god! The pop is thunderous as Edge with his new haircut wearing a leather jacket and jeans runs out from behind the curtains. He crouches down pointing to the fans as Triple H applauds from the ring. Edge's smile is gleaming as he walks down the ramp and enters the ring, he shakes hands and exchanges a hug with Triple H before walking up and climbing the turnbuckle posing for photos. After he exits the top rope he grabs a microphone and cannot speak due to the fans chanting Edge! As they quiet down Edge says that this is the biggest decision he has had to make for a long time. Edge says that when he found out that Dylan Kelly had cancelled Smackdown he was disgusted, Edge states that RAW was always saw as the A show but not anymore. Edge says he respects Triple H but live on Friday Nights from now on will be the A show. Edge goes to speak again but his microphone cuts off to which he acts surprised, suddenly our screen turns static and we are met with a dark secluded room, the room is dirty and old and the lights get flicked on to show Dylan Kelly still in his suit from Judgement Day battered and bruised, he is tied up with brown rope and he sits in the chair crying. He tries to speak but cannot seem to muster any words, the only words he can say as he looks at the camera are Hunter, you've got to listen to me. He's coming, before he continues he begins to yelp as the figure who kidnapped him appears with a crowbar and smacks him across the face. The crowd and the ring are shown. All full of shock as the screen fuzzes and we go off the air.
