Time will tell… until then.

The post What Would CM Punk’s Side Plate Look Like On the New WWE Title? appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

So here we go!

We open with a recap of Elimination Chamber from Sunday.  Alberto Del Rio beat the Big Show, Jack Swagger won the Chamber, and C.M. Punk lost.  We get a reminder that Cena’s road to Wrestlemania starts tonight.

Live in the Cajun Dome!  Cena’s out to address the WWE universe, and we’re reminded that it’s Cena vs. Rock for the WWE title.  John reminds everyone that it’ll be John Cena vs. The Rock, and that’s when Punk comes out.

Punk accuses Cena of taking the easy way out.  Punk says Rock beat him fair and square on Sunday, if you disregard the fact that Rock hit an official, and Punk had him pinned for “an 18 count.” Cena tells him to “sit this one out,” and “for once, it’s not about C.M. Punk.” Punk disagrees, reminding Cena how he brought prestige to the WWE title, and how Cena can’t beat the Rock, and how he’s never beat Punk.  Punk tells him to walk away.  Cena makes it clear he will not.  Cena concedes that he hasn’t beat the Rock, and if he can’t beat Punk, then he doesn’t deserve the title shot.  Cena agrees to give Punk the shot at Wrestlemania if Punk can beat him in a match, right here, right now.  Punk decides to do this on his terms, and since he shouldn’t even be in this position, he decides to do this next week.  Cena makes it official.  Punk vs. Cena, Wrestlemania headline title shot on the line, next Monday.

We get an announcement that tonight will be the Rock’s championship celebration, and The World’s Strongest Man, Mark Henry, is up next.0

We’re back.  We get a picture of Thomas Jefferson and one of his quotes as part of a “president’s day” tribute.

“ONE MAN WITH COURAGE IS A MAJORITY.” – Thomas Jefferson

Backstage with Sheamus and Matt Striker.  Sheamus doesn’t know what went wrong last night, they were supposed to get revenge on the Shield, but didn’t.  Ryback walks into frame and Sheamus call him a neanderthall.  Ryback and Sheamus get up into each others’ face, when Chris Jericho steps in.  He gets them to stop fighting and offers them a chance to team up with him in a six-man against the Shield.  Sheamus and Ryback agree.

“FEED ME SHIELD” – Ryback

SIN CARA VS MARK HENRY

This was an out-and-out squash.  Sin Cara got in one kick to the head, but it ends with a powerslam and a “world’s strongest slam.”

WINNER: MARK HENRY

Henry bullies the ref out of the ring and turns his attention to the fallen Sin Cara.  Great Khali strides out (slowly) and after a stare-down, teasing a fight, Henry bails.

“IF I WANNA DANCE, I GIVE EM’ THAT.  YOU DANCE, THAT’S ALL YOU GOOD FOR ANYWAY.” – Mark Henry

We go to a recap of the U.S. title match at Elimination Chamber, between the Miz and Champion Antonio Cesaro.  We see Miz drop knee first into Cesaro’s groin, and get dq’d.

Vicki Guerro announces the six-man main event for tonight – Jericho, Sheamus, and Ryback vs The Shield via Twitter.

When we come back, Miz vs. Cesaro, NO DQ!

We’re back with a promo for FANDANGO, comming soon.

Miz is in the ring w’a taped-up shoulder and arm.  We get a recap of last Monday’s RAW when Cesaro swung him into the guardrail.

NO DQ MATCH-U.S. CHAMPION ANTONIO CESARO VS THE MIZ

Miz starts strong, but the match goes out to the floor and Cesaro sends the bad arm into the post.  Cesaro throws Miz back in the ring with some chairs and a kendo stick.  Cesaro wedges a chair between two turnbuckles in the corner, and tries to drive the Miz shoulder-first into it.  Miz counters a few times and Cesaro has more luck with the Kendo stick.  Cesar pins the bad shoulder of Miz between his knee and a chair, and works the arm.  Cesaro sets Miz up in the corner for a charge, but Miz gets a shot to the face.  Cesaro charges knee first and Miz ducks.  Cesaro hits the chair in the corner.  Miz drop-toe-holds him chest first into the other chair, and ends this with a figure four for the submission.

WINNER: THE MIZ

Later tonight, Jack Swagger and Zeb Coulter will make a “State of the Union” address to the WWE universe.  Right now, we’re getting a look at an Internet video made by Zeb and Swagger. (youtube.com/wethepeoplezeb) It looks like a public access channel video with a “Don’t Tread On Me” flag tacked up in the back.  Zeb delivers a rant against immigrants with Swagger looming menacingly in the background.

We’re reminded that Cena vs. Punk is next week and the Rock’s championship celebration is tonight.

We come back to a pic and a quote of Abraham Lincoln.

“YOU CAN FOOL SOME OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME, YOU CAN FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE SOME OF THE TIME, YOU CAN’T FOOL ALL OF THE PEOPLE ALL OF THE TIME.” – Abraham Lincoln.

Backstage, WWE  tag team champions Daniel Bryan and Kane are arguing over what happened between them in the Elimination chamber last Sunday.  Brian has requested a singles match and doesn’t want Kane coming out with him.  Kane decides he’ll request a singles match and doesn’t want Bryan coming out with him.  Kane warns Bryan that he’d better be a man of his word, because he doesn’t like snakes.  Randy Orton overhears this, and takes exception to it.  Kane explains that if a snake gets too close to him, he squashes it with his boot.  Orton compares Kane to Barney the Dinosaur and Bryan laughs.  Orton disappears, and Kane sulks off.

We go to Vicki’s office where Paul Heyman has been summoned.  Vicki rags on Heyman about how useless his special stipulations were in the WWE title match.  Later on, she will make a big announcement concerning his career, in the ring.

Team Ziggler (Dolp, Big E. and AJ) makes their way out as we go to break.

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION ALBERTO DEL RIO VS DOLPH ZIGGLER

Ziggler’s in the ring as we recap Del Rio’s win over the Big Show at EC.  Ricardo Rodriguez comes out to introduce Del Rio.  The crowd is not into it.  Ziggler goes right after Del Rio.  Del Rio fights back.  Ziggler goes up and over the ropes, lands on the apron.  Del Rio hits the enziguri as we go to break…

Ziggler in control as we come back, choking Del Rio against the ropes.  Ziggler with a dropkick.  Choking again, and Big E. sneaks in a cheap shot at ringside.  Ziggler gets a two-count with a fame-asser and goes up top.  ADR cuts him off and hits a REVERSE FACE-LOCK SUPERPLEX.  Ziggler up first. They trade punches, ADR hits two clothes-line, a tilt-a-whirl back-breaker, and a thrust kick for two.  ADR gets a “Si” chant going but Ziggler hits the neck-breaker for two.  Ziggler whips ADR into the corner, ADR gets the boots up, ties up Ziggler, and hits several forearms to the back and a back-stabber for two.  Big E up on the apron.  Del Rio knocks him off.  Ziggler goes for the flying DDT, but Del Rio hits the arm-breaker for the submission.

WINNER: ALBERTO DEL RIO

After the match, Big E. blindsides ADR and beas him down.  Ziggler realizes this is the best time to cash in the MiTB briefcase, but Ricardo swipes it and runs off with Big E. after him.  AJ recovers the case, but Ziggler eats a huge kick from ADR.

Later tonight, the Rock’s celebration, and Kane vs.Randy Orton

And we got to break…

We are back with Intercontinental champion Wade Barrett in the ring, telling all of us about his big break in a major motion picture.  We then get shown the trailer for “Dead Man Down,” in theaters on March 8th.  We come back to Wade but Sheamus interrupts from the Titan-Tron to point out that Wade isn’t the star, Colin Farrell is.  He invites Barrett to respond, but is told we’re out of time.

SIX PERSON TAG TEAM MATCH – TENSAI/BRODUS CLAY/AND NAOMI VS PRIMO/EPICO/AND ROSA

The Funkadayctals make their entrance w/Brodus and Tensai.  Rosa and team MO-CO cut the music short with their entrance.  Naomi starts off with Rosa, taking charge with high-flying moves.  Rosa tags in Primo who goes after Naomi but Tensai makes the save and send Primo out.  Naomi hits a sliding dropkick between Tensai’s legs on Epico and Rosa.  Tensai and Brodus ends this with double headbuts and a double splash.

WINNERS: BRODUS CLAY AND TENSAI

We get a dance party in the ring before going to a WWE.com press conference in the Super-dome, where we get an announcement about Wrestlemania 30 being there next year, April 2014.

Up next is the “State Of The Union” address from Jack Swagger and Zeb Coulter.

We come back with a quote from Harry S. Truman

“THE BUCK STOPS HERE.” – Harry S. Truman

Jack Swagger and Zeb Coulter are in the ring with a podium and a “don’t tread on me” flag set up.  Swagger claims that he took the weight of the nation on his shoulders when he won the EC match and became #1 contender to the WHC.  He turns the mike over to Zeb, who claims the state of our union is “pathetic.” In summation, he basically accuses foreigners of coming here to take our health care, jobs, and resources, and how when Jack Swagger beats ADR, he will restore our nation to greatness.

Daniel Bryan makes his entrance as we go to break.

JACK SWAGGER VS. DANIEL BRYAN

Match is basically Bryan slipping out of Swagger’s grasp with his speed/agility until Swagger gets a chance to pound on the bad ribs of Bryan.  Bryan fights back with quick strikes and high-risk high-flying.  Bryan misses a charging drop-kick and Swagger works his leg.  Swagger ends this with the “Patriot Act,” submission.

WINNER: JACK SWAGGER

Later tonight, Jericho, Sheamus, and Ryback vs. The Shield, and Vicki’s big announcement about Heyman.

We come back to a Wrestlemania promo and Vicki in the ring demanding our attention, preparing to make an announcement that could change Heyman’s career/life.  She announces Brad Maddox as “assistant to the managing supevisor.” Brad says this was his reward for blowing the whistle on Heyman.

“IS THIS MY CUE TO VOMIT?” – Paul Heyman

Heyman says goodnight and gets ready to leave, when Vince makes his appearance on the Tron, stopping him.  He reminds Heyman of last week when Heyman requested the DQ/count-out stip for the WWE title match at EC, and how Heyman said he do “anything” for it.  Basically Vince challenges Heyman to a fight in two weeks when he makes his return.

And Break…

CHRIS JERICHO, SHEAMUS & RYBACK VS. THE SHIELD

Jericho, Sheamus, & Ryback each make a separate entrance, the Shield come down all at once through the crowd.  The faces start off strong, with each man getting a shot at a Shield member.  The faces dominate as we go to break…

We come back to the Shield beating down Sheamus.  Sheamus fights his way free and brings in Ryback.  Ryback hits hard and fast, tossing around the Shield, but he takes a spear when the ref isn’t looking.  The Shield pile on Ryback with double teaming until one of them misses a charge.  Ryback brings in Jericho, who takes over on the Shield.  Jericho locks in the “Walls Of Jericho” while Sheamus takes a Shield member to the outside, brawling.  Ryback is down, and the Shield leader takes out Jericho with a flying knee behind the ref’s back.  Jericho gets pinned for three.

WINNERS: THE SHIELD

And break…

We come back with a quote from JFK.

“ASK NOT WHAT YOUR COUNTRY CAN DO FOR YOU, ASK WHAT YOU CAN DO FOR YOUR COUNTRY.” – John F. Kennedy

DAMIEN SANDOW VS KOFI KINGSTON

Sandow comes out, berating the audience and claims his great-grandfather came up with the new deal.  He attacks Kofi before the bell rings and brutalizes him, until R-Truth makes his comeback and the save.  Sandow is left lying.

NO CONTEST

We go to Josh Mathews at ringside w/two of his co-stars from “G.I. JOE: RETALIATION,” and a clip from the movie.

WINNER: RANDY ORTON

And break…

We come back to a local marching band making their way down to the ring.  After they finish playing, the Rock makes his big entrance.  First, he runs down Punk, pointing out how he beat Punk in two straight PPV’s so he could be here tonight as WWE champion.  Rock says in 48 days he’s going to Wrestlemania, but not with the “spinny” belt.

“THE WWE TITLE SHOULD NEVER LOOK LIKE A TOY, AND IT SHOULD NEVER, EVER, SPIN” – The Rock

The Rock retires the WWE “spinner” belt, and talks about how the belt should “inspire” the people watching and respect the legacy of champions past.  He then unveils the “New” WWE championship.  It looks like a big ring, with the WWE logo taking up most of the face-plate over the word “champion,” and the Rock’s Brahma-Bull logo on each side.  Rock asks the question “Who will the Rock face at Wrestlemania? John Cena, or C.M. Punk?” Rock is about to name his preference, when Cena’s music hits and he comes out.  He’s facing down the Rock when Punk nails him from behind with the spinny belt.  He tosses it aside, and says “I want that one,” while pointing at Rock.  The show ends with Punk staring down the Rock and walking out, while the Rock paces around the ring in confuion and Cena tries to pull himself up.

The post RYTMAN’S RAW (REPLAY) REAL TIME RECAP appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

(Note: Spoilers)

The post The WWE Reveals A Brand New Title For The Rock. appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

We start with the recap of last week.  Cena announces his challenge for the WWE title and gets beat down by the Shield, along with Ryback and Sheamus.  Vince catches Paul Heyman in his lie and gets F5’d by Brock Lesnar before he can fire Heyman.

We open with C.M. Punk walking down to the ring, he walks up to a young fan and fakes giving him a “High-five” so he can snatch his “it’s my birthday” sign, and wreck it.  Punk commanders a mike and orders Justin Roberts into the ring, forcing him to announce Punk as “The Peoples Champion.” He then denies over-reacting to his situation, clamming he acted the way anyone else would act…

“If you think I over-reacted… it’s clear to me you’ve never held anything as special as the WWE championship… in fact I doubt anyone in this building has ever done anything great in their entire life.” – C.M. Punk

Punk claims he was “screwed” and the title in its “physical form” stolen from him.  He then addresses the video of Heyman with Maddox and the Shield from last week.  He goes to fans in the front row, calling one “four eyes,” another “sweet-heart,” and asking Michael Cole if any of them saw him in the video.  They each say no.  Back in the ring, Punk compares Heymans claim that he wasn’t in the video, against Vince McMahon, who put HIS video on HIS Titan-tron on HIS television show…

“He is going to Doctor a video and he is going to play it on his television show, and all of you mindless, no-good, low down, fat, stupid, lazy people are gonna eat it up.” – C.M. Punk

Punk goes on to say Vince “deserved” to have his hip broken by Brock Lesnar, claiming it was Karma.  Punk invites anyone to step up and try shut him up, promising to punch their face and toss them back on the side of the railing they belong.  Punk continues his tirade until Smackdown GM Booker T, interrupts him.  Booker has a miserable time trying to call Vicki “managing supervisor,” and informs him she allowed him to come out and decide Punk’s fate.  Booker decides we can decide Punk’s opponent for tonight.  We have to download the WWE app and vote for a “Wrestlemania Rematch.”

Our choices are…

• Randy Orton
• Rey Mysterio
• Chris Jericho

Booker is out, and we go to Michael Cole giving us a tutorial on using the app.  We’re promised an “epic announcement” about the hall of fame later tonight, and Ryback makes his entrance as we go to break.

Back from break, we get Randy Orton on WWE RAW-active, mentioning how perfect it would be to shut Punk up with an RKO, right here in Atlanta, the sight of his Wrestlemania victory over Punk.

WWE U.S. CHAMPION ANTONIO CESARO VS. RYBACK

Cesaro makes his way to the ring waving the U.S. flag, as Cole makes a quick mention of his Wrestlemania “streak.”

Cesaro starts off with an amateur style go-behind, Ryback muscles out and tosses Cesaro w/a fireman’s carry-like lift.  Ryback pummels Cesaro in the corner, Cesaro fights back with a head-butt.  Ryback gets a hip-toss, drops the leg across the face of Cesaro, and gets a two-count.  Ryback scoops him up and hangs him in a “tree-of-woe” position in the corner.  Ryback stomps him for a few moments until the ref orders a break, and Cesaro rolls outside the ring.  Ryback goes out and tosses Cesaro back in.  Cesaro catches Ryback with a stomp to the head, and continues stomping.  Cesaro picks Ryback up and hits a short-knee, European upper-cut, and a whip into the ropes. Ryback reverses it and hits a Thez-press.  Ryback bounces Cesaro off the mat a few times and hoists him up by the head, tossing him into a corner.  Ryback charges, Cesaro moves, Ryback hits the corner and Cesaro hits a clothesline to the back.  Both men are down as we go to break.

Back from break, Cesaro has a headlock but Ryback shoots him into the ropes and takes him down hard just by standing there.  He hits a few clotheslines then hoists Cesaro up, and plants him down (D-Lo Brown style.) Cesaro rolls out and walks off.  Ryback goes after him, hits a clothesline to the back.  Shot to the face by Ryback, and he rolls Cesaro into the ring.  Cesaro catches Ryback by the head and drops down, pulling Ryback neck-first into the rope.  Sliding kick to the leg by Cesaro and Ryback meets the edge of the ring with his face.  Cesaro, on the outside sends Ryback into the post, then into the stairs.  Ryback just beats the ten-count back into the ring.  Cesaro pummels Ryback in the corner, the holding Ryback by the head, goes up on the top rope, plants his knee on Ryback’s shoulder, and shoves off, driving Ryback backwards into the matt with his knee on Ryback’s face.  Cesaro gets a one-count.  Cesaro charges in, but meets a knee-lift, an elbow, and takes a huge back-body drop, followed by a “Meat-hook” clothesline.  Cesaro tries to escape through the crowd. Ryback catches him and puts him back in the ring.  Cesaro hits a huge boot to the face, but Ryback catches him by the leg when he tries a second time.  Ryback hits a Power-bomb and the “Shell-shock” for the pin.

WINNER: RYBACK                                                                              

We get another plug for the app as we’re reminded we can choose Punk’s opponent for his Wrestlemania rematch.  We go back to last week to see John Cena challenge for the WWE championship, and get beat down by the Shield.  Sheamus runs in, and gets beat down.  Ryback runs in, and gets beat down.  We take a special look at the Shield, when we come back.

Back from break, we see Chilli from hip hop R&B group TLC in the crowd tonight.  We then see Rey Mysterio on “WWE Active” doing a promo w/Matt Stryker, saying he should face Punk because he’s the only one who’s ever taken his hair.  We then get a video package on the Shield, including a montage of beat downs on WWE superstars.  We go backstage where Vicki Guerro is with Cena.  She’s heard about his plan to confront the Shield tonight, and compares it to the movie “Death Wish.”  Cena reminds her he won the Royal Rumble, he’s going to Wrestlemania, and the Shield needs to be stopped tonight.

We get another look at the video package for Trish Stratus, going into the HOF, and are reminded of the “epic announcement” later tonight, as we go to break.

We’re back, and this time it’s Jericho on WWE Active, saying it’s our second chance to see who the best in the world is.

Santino Morella hits the ring and Booker T joins Cole and Lawler at ringside, followed by the “Real American” Jack Swagger.

JACK SWAGGER VS SANTINO MORELLA 

We start with a lock up, and Swagger puts Morella down hard.  Swagger takes him back into the ropes and hits a knee.  Swagger whips Santino into the ropes and Santino starts his “power-walking” bit, but Swagger kills it with a knee, followed by a tackle to the leg. Swagger pummels Santino in the corner but misses a charge.  Morella ducks a big right and hits some punches.  Swagger blocks a hip toss, but Morella ducks the clothesline and hits a few rights.  Santino tries a whip, but Swagger no-sells, knees Santino, hits the Swagger-Bomb, and the “Patriot Act,” for the win. (Patriot Act = Ankle lock.)

We’re reminded of our chance to vote for Punk’s opponent as we go to break.

We come back with a promo for Wrestlemania, and we get an apology from the WWE.  Apparently, so many people voted, the system crashed.

WHC Alberto Del Rio makes his entrance as we get a recap of his feud w/Big Show, starting with the attack on RAW and ending with the attack on Ricardo Rodriguez on Smackdown

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION ALBERTO DEL RIO VS CODY RHODES

Cody comes in strong with a flurry of punches and an Irish whip into the corner, Del Rio meets him with an elbow, and goes up top in the corner, catches Cody behind the head w/his feet and takes him down w/a Lucha style head-scissors, followed by body-drop and a kick to the back.  Cody slaps Del Rio in the face, Del Rio responds by pummeling him in the corner and with an Inziguri to the shoulder for two.  Cody throws a wide-kick to the leg that stops Del Rio.  Cody gives Del Rio the knee-breaker, and takes over, stomping Del Rio into the corner.  Cody hits a head-butt but misses a charge.  Del Rio hits a clothesline, a tilt-a-whirl back-breaker, and a thrust-kick to the face for a two-count.  Del Rio gets a “Si” chant going; signaling for the arm-breaker, but Cody shoves him off and hits the “Beautiful Disaster” kick off the second rope for two.  Cody charges in, Del Rio hooks the arm-breaker, (not smoothly,) and gets the submission.

WINNER: WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION ALBERTO DEL RIO

Alberto gets the mike and apologizes for all the time he spent looking down on us.  He calls Big Show a “bully” and a “Monster,” and promises the Big Show will pay for what he did to Ricardo Rodriguez, and he will be a champion for everyone who works to put food on the table.

Big Show comes up on the Tron, challenging Del Rio for a rematch for the title, from a hotel room in an undisclosed location.  He says he’s staying away to protect Del Rio from his rage, and has Booker sending him the contract.  Show warns Del Rio that if he tries to find him, or shows up here, Show will give him a worse beating than the one he gave Ricardo.

Jerry Lawler overcomes a few flubbed lines to announce Chris Jericho as the winner of the RAW Active poll, and C.M. Punk’s opponent tonight.

And we go to break.

We come back with a recap of team Rey/Cara defeating team Hell No (Bryan/Kane) in a non-title match on the last Smackdown.

Backstage, we see Daniel Bryan up in Kane’s face, blaming him for the loss.  Kane accuses Bryan of not being able to take care of himself.  Bryan says he’ll do just that in his match tonight, and tells Kane to stay backstage, so as not to ruin his chances at getting a spot in the Elimination Chamber.  Kane says “fine.”

And we go to break…

Back to the action, Punk hits a belly-to-back suplex, and three leg-drops to the back of Jericho’s head, for a two count.  Punk locks an under-hook face-lock on Jericho.  Jericho gets to his feet, Punk whips him into the corner, Jericho back-body-drops him over the ropes, Punk lands on the apron and tries for a flying clothesline, but eats the mat as Jericho side-steps him.  Jericho hits two shoulder-blocks, gets sent over the top rope by Punk, but lands on his feet, climbs to the top, and connects with a fist off the top rope.  Jericho hits a boot to the gut and the face-plant bulldog on Punk.  Jericho tries a Lion-Sault, Punk gets the knees up, but Jericho grabs the legs and tries for the walls of Jericho.  Punk kicks him off, into the corner.  Punk misses a running knee, and Jericho hits some head-shots before taking Punk off the top rope with the “hurriconrana.” Jericho gets a two-count, goes for another Lion-Sault but Punk gets a shot to the back.  Punk has Jericho up on his shoulders and tries for the GTS, but Jericho rolls out of it and schoolboys Punk into a “Walls of Jericho,” attempt.  Punk hooks his head for a small package, Jericho reverses it, Punk kicks out, Jericho tries a clothesline, but Punk catches the arm and twists it into a neck-breaker for two.  Punk hits the knee-lift in the corner, a short clothes-line, but takes too much time up top and misses the “Macho Man” elbow-drop.  Jericho’s Lion-Sault connects for two.  Punk hits a SICK kick to the head for another two.  Punk locks in the “Anaconda-Vice” but Jericho makes the ropes.

“THIS IS AWESOME!” – The Crowd

Jericho hits two shoulder blocks from the outside and goes up top, but Punk kicks his leg out from under him and goes for the GTS.  Jericho catches Punk’s leg on the way down and hooks the “Walls of Jericho!” Punk makes it to the ropes.  Punk tries to lift Jericho, he can’t.  Jericho goes for the legs; Punk twists him into the middle turnbuckle.  Punk sends Jericho shoulder first into the post; and hits the GTS for a three count.

WINNER: C.M. PUNK

After the match, we get the huge Hall of Fame announcement.  Our next inductee is BRUNO SAMARTINO!  We get a package of Bruno’s career highlights, including winning the WWWF title in 48 seconds, coming back from a broken neck after three months, and meeting the Pope.

And we go to break..

We come back to Matt Striker interviewing Punk backstage.  Punk calls The Rock a thief and says the title of champion belongs to him.  He’s the best in the world, and he proves it every night.

From that, we go to a video package about Rock winning the WWE championship after ten long years, featuring a montage of headlines and TV spots about the Rock.

John Cena is backstage being interviewed about calling out the Shield.  Cena talks about how the time to laugh and joke and smile comes to an end when you get picked on and pushed around.  Tonight, he pushes back.

And break…

We come back to Big Show, eating, live from his hotel, and complaining on the phone about how long it’s taking to get the contract over to him.  Show answers the door for a guy with the contract.  While Show reads it over and signs it, the guy keeps trying to tell him something.   Show refuses to listen.  Show opens the door to let the guy out, and comes face to face with Alberto Del Rio.  They have a vicious fight in the hallway that ends with Del Rio blinding/knocking out the Big Show with a fire extinguisher.  Two men get out of the elevator, looking confused…

“It’s okay; my friend just had some bad Mexican food.” – Alberto Del Rio

Del Rio assures them he will get Show some help, and leaves Big Show with a wink.

Back in the ring, Brad Maddox is here, asking for a mike.  He claims Heyman took advantage of him, and claims he is an “innocent.” He takes credit for giving McMahon the video of him with Heyman and the Shield, and calls himself the “hero,” of this story.  He says it’s gonna be him and NOT Cena who dishes out justice to the Shield, and calls them out.  They come down, admitting they took money from Heyman and that they they’re gonna enjoy beating him down.  After Maddox is decimated, Cena makes his way to the ring through the crowd, followed by Ryback and Sheamus.  The Shield attempt to flee, but the entire WWE locker room cut them off.  The Shield is trapped, back to back in the ring.  Cena and friends move in and the fight breaks out, for two and a half minutes.  The Shield retreat as the show closes.

The post RYTMAN’S RAW RECAP appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

The show opened with a special Veteran’s Day tribute to our military from John Cena, as a voice over; followed by a recap of last week with a dramatic voice over similar to “TMZ” or a promo for a soap opera.  The voice over recapped the current major storylines including Lawler returning after a heart attack, Vicki’s crusade to embarrass AJ/Cena, C.M. Punk holding the WWE title for 358 days and facing Cena tonight, and Brad Maddox screwing Ryback and facing him tonight for a $1,000,000 contract.

Yes, WWE is using a dramatic voice over guy just like TNA Impact, just like TMZ, and every sleazy tabloid show.  Why? I don’t know.  I probably won’t in this life time.

RANDY ORTON DEF DOLPH ZIGGLER – Fast-paced back and forth match-up with a lot of high-impact spots in a short span of time.  Match ends when Alberto Del Rio tries to distract Orton with a run in, and Orton side steps Ziggler’s fame-asser, getting the pin with a roll up.

ADR and Ziggler (w/Ricardo Rodriguez) gave Orton a beat down until WWE Intercontinental champion made the save.  Teddy Long, Senior Advisor to Smackdown GM Booker T, came out and made this a tag team match (per usual.)

DEL RIO/ZIGGLER DEF ORTON/KINGSTON – Interesting moment when Kingston had a pin on Del Rio.  It seemed to me the ref had to stop short on his count because Ziggler was out of position and late w/the save.  Ziggler-Rio get the win after Rodriguez distracts Kingston and Del Rio hits an inziguri to the back of the head for a pin.

Any reason they just couldn’t book a tag team match in the first place?  Why waste the time?

(I’m guessing because SOMEBODY wasn’t willing to job out; coughing noises, RANDY ORTON, coughing noises.)

We were reminded of Jerry Lawler’s return later tonight, and shown Vicki Guerro making her way to the ring from backstage.

We returned from break with Dolph and Vicki in the ring, discussing the definition of “Scandal,” and Dolph staying out to find the truth.  We recapped Vicki’s video “evidence” with Dolph riffing on Cena and AJ.  Vicki ordered AJ to come out to explain herself and kept demanding AJ admit that she’s having an affair as the crowd vehemently chanted “Shut up Vicki!” AJ admitted only to being “friends” with John and made a joke about Vicki throwing her “considerable” weight around.  Vicki responded by playing voice mails from AJ’s phone, each one sounding like an intimate talk with Cena.  AJ insisted they were faked and Ziggler asked if those nights in Cena’s hotel room were more disappointing than not speaking to him anymore.  Cena came out but was stopped short by AJ, who slapped Ziggler right in the face followed by a big right hand by Cena.  Ziggler and Vicki run off as we were reminded that Cena will face Punk in the main event tonight.

1.) WHY IS THIS STILL A THING!? Vicki HAS what she wanted, power over RAW, not that she’s using it for anything.  And what good is attacking Cena doing her or Ziggler? You could say it’s strictly for attention, AND YOU’D BE GIVING US MORE MOTIVE THAT THE PEOPLE WRITING THIS DAMN SHOW DID!

2.) WHY IS THIS A “SCANDAL!?” Cena is divorced; AJ is not GM of RAW anymore, TRIPLE H MARRIED HIS BOSSES DAUGHTER WHILE HE WAS STILL AN ACTIVE WRESTLER! If they are having a “thing,” WHERE IS THE CONFLICT? WHAT IS THE BASIS OF VICKI’S COMPLAINT!? Vicki has nothing to gain here.  She’s being an abusive authority figure for the sake of being an abusive authority figure.  It’s annoying, tired, and played out.

3.) WHAT DOES ZIGGLER HAVE TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS? I don’t understand why Ziggler is helping Vicki take jabs at AJ and Cena, since Cena isn’t facing Ziggler at Survivor Series.

We get another look at World heavyweight Champion Big Show jumping Sheamus and Stephen Regal in a pub on last week’s Smackdown before going to an ad for IAVA.com, an organization dedicated to Iraqi/Afghanistan war veterans.

We came back to AJ and Cena backstage talking about Vicki and Dolph persecuting AJ over something that never happened, or could happen.  AJ asked “never could happen?” A suddenly tongue tied Cena left the scene with AJ smiling at him. (Author’s note to Cena: RUN! FOR GOD’S SAKE RUN!)

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION BIG SHOW DEF WILLIAM REGAL – Sadly, little more than a squash as it was mostly Regal selling Show’s offense and getting in brief moments of resistance.  After the match, Show threatened to KO Regal with the big right hand, however Sheamus made the save, getting Show down and putting the boots to him.  Show runs off as Sheamus looks after Regal.

KAITLIN DEF LAYLA – We went right into this match from the break.  The match barley went five minutes until Kaitlin caught Layla in her arms.  After what I thought was a botched slam (I was wrong,) Kaitlyn hits a reverse DDT for the three-count.  Divas Champ Eve Torres, guest commentator at ringside, stands up and we get a stare-down.  After that, we get another look at Lawler having a heart attack and an announcement of his big return next.

We came back to Michael Cole and Jim Ross in the ring, introducing Jerry Lawler.  Lawler made his way into the ring and gave both Cole and JR a hug.  Lawler thanked the crowd for their support and compared his situation to the movie “It’s a Wonderful Life,” in that a near-death experience let him see how much he was loved.  At that moment, WWE heavyweight champion C.M. Punk came out with Heyman.  Punk mentioned how glad he was that Lawler left the ring before Punk beat him to death “again.” He accused Lawler of “disrespectful,” “bad taste”, by way of trying to go toe-to-toe with the champion at 62 years old.  He said shame on you to the crowd for blaming him for Lawler’s attack, and that it’s nobody’s fault but Lawler’s.  He reminded us all that he’s been champion 358 days and is now 9^th longest reigning champion of all time.  Lawler jokes about Punk’s reign being on “life support,” and Heyman responded by faking a heart attack.  After Punk “saved” Heyman, Mick Foley came out to call Punk on the carpet.  Punk claimed that since he got pulled out of the Survivor Series tag match, he and Foley had no business with each other, and Foley should concentrate on filling the “gaping hole” in his team.  Foley responded by saying the WWE universe would decide who would get that spot late tonight.  Punk suggested to Foley changing the team name to “Team Worthless,” in reference to him, his team, and the fans.  Foley cut him off sharply, and let Punk in on a little secret about Lawler, “HE WAS DEAD!” He went on to say Punk didn’t care about lessons or respect.  Punk referred to Foley as a “goof” who jumped off his roof. Foley informed Punk he would be the “special guest enforcer” in his match w/John Cena.  Foley leaves with a “Have a Nice Day,” for Punk.  We were shown a graphic confirming we would in fact have the option via Raw-active Twitter poll, and we went to break with a look at Brad Maddox.

We came back to Punk yelling at Heyman to “Fix it,” referring to Punk’s problems with Cena, Foley, Ryback, and the Maddox issue.  After that, we go to ringside for the respective entrances of Sin Cara and Mysterio.  Lawler was back at ringside.  Justin Gabriel, Tyson Kidd, Primo, Epico, and the Prime Time Players (Titus O’Neal/Darren Young,) were in the ring.

8 MAN TAG: MYSTERIO, SIN CARA, GABRIEL/KIDD DEF. THE PRIME TIME PLAYERS/PRIMO & EPICO W/ROSA MENDEZ – Good solid trading of back and forth tag team offense to start off.  Ricardo Rodriguez came out to give Rosa a note, upsetting Primo before we went to break.  If I remember correctly, they hinted at a Del Rio/Rosa paring a few years ago, when Del Rio first came in.  It’s nice to see them finally resolving that loose end.

Match ends with Mysterio hitting the 619, and Gabriel hitting the 450 on Young for the pin.  The match is followed by an ad for the National Guard, and a camera shot of Ohio National guard members in the audience, along with a “Thank You,” from WWE.

Backstage: Brad Maddox prepped for his match when Heyman approached him.  We went to break as they walked off.

We came back to a promo for “Fandango” and a backstage segment with Ziggler and Miz giving each other a hard time.  Foley steps in and Ziggler walks off.  Foley gives Ziggler a “hi,” from Amy Schumer.  Miz asks Foley for a spot on the RAW-active ballot and Foley agrees.  Our choices to vote for via Twitter were #Santino, #Ryder, #Miz.

Now is it me, or should this have gotten WAY more build up?  Wouldn’t it have made sense for Ziggler to have been needling Miz about his losses over the last few weeks, building up to Miz wanting to settle things with him and seeing this as his opportunity?  And why didn’t Foley come to Miz with the offer? Wouldn’t that have gotten Miz some credit?

R-TRUTH DEF. TENSAI – U.S. Champion Antonio Cesaro came out to call everyone fat and rude before joining the announce team.  During the match, Cole and Lawler made a big deal of Cesaro carrying a satchel.  Cesaro explained it was there to carry whatever he needed.  R-truth dominated the match with high-spot offense and got the pin w/a “Little Jimmy.” Truth and Cesaro traded jabs at ringside, including a joke by Truth about Cesaro being “Europe in my face.”

After that, we get a look at the new WWE 13, video game, featuring Ryback destroying a player created Brad Maddox.

After a break we get a recap of the Brad Maddox situation leading up to tonight’s “Million Dollar Challenge,” as well as a recap of Vicki and Dolph tormenting Cena and AJ, AND a recap of Foley, Ziggler, Miz.

RYBACK DEF BRAD MADDOX – As Maddox came out, we saw an ambulance pull up to the side of the stage and Brad get visibly rattled.  Brad walked to the ring as we were treated to a PIP promo of Brad claiming no one will forget his name.  Ryback came out next, followed by a stretcher.  The entire match is Ryback decimating Maddox, with Maddox getting ZERO offense.  The match ends with Ryback getting the Shell-shock and the pin.  After the match, medics try to take Maddox out on the stretcher but Ryback attacks, dumping Maddox off the stretcher and tossing him like garbage into the ambulance.

So, that whole thing with Heyman meant NOTHING!? That whole “million dollar challenge thing” goes NOWHERE? WHAT WAS THE POINT!?

Here’s another thing, let’s play this out on paper.  A desperate young man, who’s had setback after setback, finally has a chance at his dream job and a million dollar contract, if he can beat an unstoppable monster.  As he makes his way to the arena, the monster’s boss sends out an ambulance and a stretcher to intimidate him.  Now if this were anywhere else in the world beside WWE RAW, who would YOU think was the “good guy?” And I know what Maddox did at HitC, what I’m saying is this makes Ryback look more like a heel than it does Maddox.  And since Maddox lost, it comes off anti-climatic.  The resolution falls flat.

SHEAMUS DEF. DAVID OTUNGA – We get a recap of Sheamus going after Big Show earlier tonight.  While Sheamus destroys Otunga, Regal watches on the monitor in the back.  Sheamus gets the pin with a combo of “White Noise,” and the “Brogue Kick.”

Backstage: Big Show attacks Regal.

We came back from break.  Josh Mathews updates us on Regal’s condition.  It’s a concussion and maybe a broken jaw.  We go to a promo for the Wounded Warrior Project, an outfit designed to help returning soldiers with medical and psychological injuries.

Backstage: Kane makes his way to the ring when Daniel Bryan confronts him.  They argue about Kane tagging with someone besides him with Bryan playing the role of jealous girlfriend.  Bryan suggests going to Foley to protest but Kane just disappears on him.  Bryan goes into his “NO!” routine much to the crowd’s delight.

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPION KANE AND THE MIZ DEF. TEAM RHODES SCHOLARS (CODY RHODES/DAMIAN SANDOW) – Miz wins the RAW-active twitter poll to be Kane’s partner, and the crowd seems happy about it.  Daniel Bryan comes out, seemingly to cheer on Kane.  During the match, Bryan managed to distract Miz, setting up an opening for the Rhodes Scholars to take over.  The match ends with Bryan going after Miz but Miz sending him crashing into Rhodes.  Kane gets the pin with the choke-slam, and Bryan and Miz argue over Kane.

I just wrote that.

Yeah.

Daniel Bryan is now Kane’s jealous girlfriend.  I’m just moving on….

We take a look at WWE’s annual tribute to the troops, and our main event is up next.

JOHN CENA DEF. WWE CHAMPION C.M. PUNK – Foleys out first as “special enforcer,” followed by Punk w/Heyman, and John Cena.  The crowd is actually split between a man who’s granted a record 300 Make-a-Wish foundation visits and a man who mocked someone for having a heart attack.

We came back from a break to find Punk in control of the match.  Point of interest is Punk applying a “new/improved” version of the “Anaconda Vice,” down on the mat, hands locked behind Cena’s head w/the left leg hooked under the chin.  Cena eventually escapes and takes over.  Heyman runs in but is caught off by Cena, and Foley drags Heyman out.  Punk tries to limp away from the match but Ryback is out and chases him back into Cena’s clutches.  Cena gets the pin w/the AA.  The match ends with Cena and Ryback staring each other down, both clutching the belt, with Punk on the outside, looking like he’s gonna cry.

You know, this DOES work in terms of story.  We have two of the most powerful forces in the WWE on a collision course, with the defending champion either caught in the middle, or getting shut out altogether.  The problem is I don’ see it as a story; I see it as THE PERFECT EXAMPLE OF HOW WWE DOES THIS.  I often tell myself that WWE is trying to book Punk like Ric Flair, the clever heel champ who always finds a way to weasel out of losing the title, but then I remember Flair was never treated like a prison bitch.

In conclusion, this show didn’t really do anything to sell me on Survivor Series this Sunday.  All they did was rush through angles they failed to build up properly over the past month.  Do you know what my advice to WWE is?

Fire Russo, or whoever’s playing him.

The post RYTMAN’S REVIEW: RAW 11/12/2012 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

RYBACK DEF JTG – Total Squash; JTG is for all intents and purposes a jobber.  Ryback hits the shell shock for the three-count.

ORTON DEF BARRETT – We get a re-cap of Barrett’s win on the last Smackdown.  Hard-hitting match; ending with an RKO out of nowhere.  Orton gets the win.

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS HELL NO DEF PRIME TIME PLAYERS – Side note; the PTP were wearing ALL Pink for this match.  I don’t know if that was for the Breast Cancer campaign, or they got heat from the front office.  Team Hell No wins despite arguing with each other.

WWE I-C CHAMPION KOFI KINGSTON DEF WWE U.S. CHAMPION ANTONIO CESARO BY DQ – Miz joins the announce team for this one, and distracts Kofi, allowing Cesaro to get a shot in.  Kofi tosses Cesaro right on top of Miz a few seconds later.  Miz attacks Kofi, getting Cesaro DQ’d.  R-Truth runs out to save Kofi from the double team by Miz/Cesaro.

3MB DEF CO-BRO – Santino knocks Drew McIntyre off the ring w/a flying “Cobra” shot, but this gives Heath Slater the opening to hit a swinging neck-breaker with the leg for a pin fall.

AJ DEF BETH PHEONIX – AJ wins with a small package, but Vicki comes out, saying she demands better of her roster, so after distracting AJ long enough for Beth to hit a clothesline…

BETH PHEONIX DEF AJ – With the Glam Slam, for a three-count.

RHODES SCHOLARS DEF SIN-STERIO – Sandow hits the neck-breaker on Sin Cara after a three way brawl on the outside with Cara, Cody Rhodes and Mysterio.

ALBERTO DEL RIO DEF JUSTIN GABRIEL – ADR locks in an arm-bar submission, and nothing much else to see here people.

BACKSTAGE SEGMENTS AND PROMOS

We opened with a recap of referee Brian Maddox screwing Ryback out of the WWE title by helping defending champ C.M. Punk w/a low blow and a fast count.

WWE champ C.M. Punk hobbles to the ring with Paul Heyman and his belt in tow.  He denies having anything to do with Maddox and points out Maddox screwing him over with a bad call two weeks ago in a tag team match.  Punk runs down a list of enemies and victories, saying he is kryptonite to resident “superman” John Cena, and declares himself “In-erasable,” (in regards to WWE wanting to erase him from history.) Mick Foley is out next.  Punk compares Foley to Hurricane Sandy, and Foley craps on Punk making light of a tragedy.  He gets the cheap pop for Charlotte North Carolina, and tells Punk he blew the choice Foley gave him a few weeks ago.  He yells at Punk about tradition, to which Punk responds by showing Foley his bandages.

“THIS IS WHAT YOUR TRADITION DOES.”– C.M. Punk

Foley challenges Punk to a traditional Survivor Series match, Team Foley vs. Team Punk.  Punk accepts, and Ryback comes out for his match.  Punk and Heyman bail.

Backstage; Vicki is interviewing AJ.  Seems the board of directors wants Vicki to consider hiring her back as a Diva.  Vicki takes the opportunity to torment AJ with the “c” word.

After the Hell-no/PTP match, Vicki comes out to address the crowd about the Cena/AJ “scandal.” Cena comes out to confront Vicki.  Vicki says she has video proof of their “relationship.” We are shown in order…

Recap:

• Cena making a joke about going to “In & Out” Burger w/AJ, Cena responds that it was a joke.
• Cena hugging AJ after she resigned last week, Cena claims he was comforting a friend.
• Cena and AJ having dinner together, Cena claims they were discussing his condition and return.
• Cena and AJ getting into the elevator, Cena claims he just walked her to her door.

Vicki calls John full of excuses and starts ragging on AJ about flirting with John.  John cuts her off, and out comes Dolph Ziggler.  Ziggler says this is all because of John’s “sophomoric urges.” Cena shoves Ziggler on his posterior and we go to break.

After the Kofi/Cesaro match, Vicki goes back to AJ (Yes, this was stretched out into three segments.) After more ragging, Vicki offers AJ back her job if she’ll just admit to thinking John is attractive.  AJ refuses to compromise Cena and tries to walk off.  Vicki calls her back, and decides to give her back her job (MAKING ALL THIS A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME.) She gives AJ a match with Beth Phoenix (see above,) later that night and warns AJ that if she ever touches her again, she’s gone.  AJ says thanks, and skips off smiling.

After the Divas match, we get a word from Sheamus.  He’s bummed about losing the title, but doesn’t regret anything because he was in the best fight he’s had since coming to the WWE.  He promises to bring the fight to Big Show and next time, he’ll win the war and the world’s championship.  Big Show comes out to gloat and rub the belt in Sheamus’ face.  He calls Sheamus a “Ginger Snap.” Sheamus responds…

“Have you ever seen a Ginger Snap?” – Sheamus

Sheamus follows that up with an EFFORTLESS “White Noise” on Big Show.  Sheamus walks off while Big Show recovers.

After a look at Sports Business Journal’s piece on Wrestlemania, we go backstage with Cena and AJ talking about their night.  Cena leaves and AJ gives him the same stare she used to give C.M. Punk. (RUN JOHN! THIS ENDS BADLY!) Vicki spies on them from a few feet back.  She starts after AJ but is interrupted by Beth Phoenix, who thanks her for restarting the match.  Vicki resents being put in that position, and FIRES BETH!  Side Note: Sara Del Ray gets a glimpse into a possible alternate future.

After the Sinsterio/Rhodes Scholars match, we’re backstage with Foley and Kaitlyn gushing about WWE 13 coming out Tuesday, when Heyman makes himself known.  They hype up their presentation on their Survivor Series teams later tonight.

After a break, we get a video package of the WWE’s Breast Cancer Awareness Promotion with the Susan G. Komen foundation.  After a lengthy rundown of all they’ve been doing, we get a ceremony in the ring where John Cena presents SGK reps with a check for ONE MILLION DOLLARS.

You know, I gotta admit.  This was something.  For whatever reason, WWE committed to this and did something really positive.  I give them kudos.

After the Del Rio/Gabriel match and a break, we get our Main Event of the evening; Punk and Foley introducing their Survivor Series teams.  Heyman has assembled the Miz, Team Rhodes Scholars, and Alberto Del Rio.  Foley has Kofi, Team Hell No, Randy Orton, and RYBACK as the big surprise.  This ends in a wild brawl (of course,) and Punk bails on his team while Ryback stares at him.  After passing up the chance to end the damn show for three minutes, Ryback crushes Cody in the Shellshock, and we end.

The post RYTMANS RAW REVIEW 10/29/12 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

Out first is WWE Champion C.M. Punk w/Paul Heyman. Heyman carries the WWE title. Punk calls Cena a coward and accuses Mick Foley of shooting him a disrespectful look and muttering something under his breath, which is why Punk put him down like a dog. Punk asks (rhetorically) if Mick would’ve disrespected Cena, The Rock, or Steve Austin like that. Heyman answers “no” to each one. He did listen to one thing Foley said, about his legacy and facing John Cena in Hell in The Cell, and that’s why he’s here to announce that it still will not happen.

Heyman takes the Mike and moves on to a most relevant piece of business. We see last week when AJ responded to his marriage proposal by slapping him. He points out she never said no, but she did put her hands on him, in direct violation of an edict by the WWE B.O.D. He reads the memo handed down, and demands AJ be removed from office, and replaced with him.

Vicki Guerro comes out w/Dolph Ziggler and reminds us of AJ attacking her 2 months ago, and we get Heyman vs. Vicki on the mike, briefly. Dolph interjects saying this is all AJ’s fault and suggests Heyman and Vicki team-up to take over.
AJ skips out, and informs us all she is on probation. She calls Heyman a “slimy, shady, greasy, creepy as all hell, worm-like excuse for a man,” and mentions she now has a “coach” advising her on running the show.

And Now Daniel Bryan is out. He says he’s just out to apologize for contributing to AJ’s mental state by dumping her. He refers to himself as a handsome, former world champion with “a great beard,” and he is now the Tag Team Champions, plural.

Out comes Kane to remind us AJ Lee is a “phenomenal kisser,” and agrees with Bryan about everything, except for one item.  HE is the tag team champions – plural. This breaks down into everyone hollering at each other, until AJ brings it to a halt with a freak out. She reminds us she is still in charge and makes a tag team match, Punk/Ziggler vs. Team Hell No. AJ skips off and we get a promo for a World Heavyweight Championship debate between Big Show and Sheamus. We see Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio heading towards the ring as we go to break.

Side Note: Rey’s mask is designed to look like it’s half his, Half Sin Cara’s. Cara’s mask is half his, half Rey’s.
Nice touch

REY MYSTERIO/SIN CARA DEF PRIMO/EPICO W/ROSA – The masked Mexicans dominate a fast-paced match up while the Prime Time Players look on from the stage. Rey ends it with the 619 and a drop of the dime for the 1-2-3.

We go to break with a reminder of the Sheamus/Big Show debate coming up later.

U.S. CHAMPION ANTONIO CESARO DEF BRODUS CLAY – This match starts as we come back from break. Cesaro cuts a picture-in-picture promo demanding appreciation in five different languages. Brodus looks strong until he takes a flying back elbow. Cesaro ends it with the neutralizer for the pin.

Backstage: Kaitlin is pulling up her sock over her injured ankle when AJ comes in with her executive coach Christopher J Stevenson. He’s here to evaluate her performance. She makes like she wants to make nice and asks Kaitlin for forgiveness. When Kaitlin smiles at her, AJ bursts into demonic laughter, saying she wasn’t sorry at all, and skips off, leaving CJS and Kaitlin to look confused at each other. We go to break, teasing JR appreciation night.

We come back from break with Zack Ryder in the ring and The Miz coming out. We’re told our social media ambassador for the night will be Larry King.

INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION THE MIZ DEF ZACK RYDER – Ryder actually dominates most of the match, but Miz ends it w/a power-bomb to the corner and the Skull-Crushing-Finale.

We come back from break with Smackdown GM Booker-T making his way to the ring. He introduces the Big Show. As Show comes to the ring, we recap Show giving Randy Orton the WMD on last weeks’ Smackdown. Booker then introduces World Champion Sheamus. Both men make quick opening statements. Booker reads them questions from Twitter. Sheamus keeps reminding Show about losing the World Championship to Daniel Bryan in 45 seconds. Show gets angrier. Show collapses his podium (by accident at first.) Then we go to a Tout from Rey Mysteri-O’Sulivan.
It’s Sheamus in a Mysterio mask.
Yep.
Both men tease a throw-down, but Show just storms off. We get a promo for the main event tag, and we cut to Ryback lumbering towards the ring as we go to break.

RYBACK DEF TENSAI – Michael Cole informs us of Jerry Lawler’s improving condition as the match gets under way. It’s a pretty even trade-off of power moves, but when Ryback attempts to lift Tensai into the Meat Hook, someone botches, twice. Cole and JR try to sell it as a block by Tensai, and Ryback ends this with a hard clothesline.

We go to break with a reminder that tonight is JR appreciation night.

When we come back, we’re introduced to breast cancer survivors and their families in the crowd as part of WWE’s breast cancer awareness month promotion w/the Susan G. Komen foundation.

WWE DIVAS CHAMP EVE DEF BETH PHEONIX – Before the match, we get a recap of Eve trying to suspend Beth, getting called on it by Booker T, and throwing Teddy Long under the bus. Eve cuts a picture-in-picture promo where she hard sells the entire Diva division just a little too earnestly. This was a short back-and-forth match with Eve winning by faking an eye injury, hitting a low kick, and the neck-breaker for the three-count.

Backstage: AJ introduces her coach to Wade Barrett. Wade gives her a tongue-lashing before storming off. AJ says her coach looks intimidated.

We go to break with a promo for the main event.

When we come back, John Bradshaw Layfield gives us a Tout about his successful climb of Mount Kilimanjaro as part of a campaign to raise money for underprivileged children.

SANTINO MORELLA DEF HEATH SLATER (DQ) – Short comedy match ends with Santino hitting the “Cobra” on Slater and Slater’s friends, Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal jumping Santino. Drew hits the “Future Shock” DDT on Santino and they shove the Cobra sock in Sandino’s mouth. Each man introduces himself to the crowd. Drew is still “the Chosen One;” Jinder is “the Maharaja,” and Slater is “The One Man Band.”

We go to commercial with a teaser for “JR appreciation night.”

WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION SHEAMUS DEF DAMIEN SANDOW W/CODY RHODES – Earlier tonight, we had a backstage segment where Sandow and Rhodes both denied the WWE universe coming up with their name while bashing the debate segment.  This was one of the most hard-fought matches on RAW in a long time. Both men were booked strong in this match and some are already considering this MOTY material. Match ends with Sheamus throwing Cody in the ring and hitting the Brogue Kick on both men.

We come back from break, with Cole in the ring re-introducing JR to the crowd. JR comes down from the stage, into the ring. Just as JR starts to speak, C.M. Punk heads out with Paul Heyman. Punk gives JR a big build up as a man who’s earned respect. He asks JR to call him “the best in the world.” JR refuses and gives Punk a dressing down. Punk stomps on JR’s hat and orders him out of the ring. JR is halfway gone when RYBACK steps into view. Ryback brings back JR and Punk decides discretion is the better part of valor and takes a hike.

ALBERTO DEL RIO DEF KOFI KINGSTON – Del Rio rides out in a $150,000 Mazarati, as Ricardo Rodriguez introduces him. We take a look back at last Friday on Smackdown as Randy Orton gets the WMD from Big Show, and gets attacked by Del Rio after the show. Kofi comes down with R-Truth and “little Jimmy,” while RR joins the announce team. Ricardo comes off a little disoriented on commentary. Kofi hits his spots but the match ends with him tapping out to the arm-breaker.

Backstage: AJ and her coach are talking. All seems well until AJ suggests that HE be the special guest ref. AJ says a coach “isn’t worth a damn unless he’s been a player,” and her coach “has never been a player.” She throws him out the building, and smirks like a Cheshire Cat.

Side Note: JR makes a boo-boo as he talks over AJ, suggesting Cole “do the reveal,” and apologizes for “talking when he should’ve been listening,” when they come back. Bryan and Kane make their entrances as we go to break.

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS TEAM HELL NO (BRYAN/KANE) DEF WWE CHAMPION C.M. PUNK (W/PAUL HEYMAN) AND DOLPH ZIGGLER (W/VICKI GUERRO) – We come back with everyone in the ring. AJ makes her way out as “special guest ref,” for the match, and nobody is happy about it. The match itself is a well-paced back and forth tag-team battle, with AJ playing it as a hard-line ref. At one point, Heyman pulls Punk’s foot over the bottom rope to break a three count, and AJ sends him to the back. Vicki protests, and gets sent to the back. Ziggler chases after her, leaving Punk alone to take a choke-slam from Kane for the three-count.

RYTMANS RANT

AJ Lee IS the star of Monday Night RAW, good and bad. The good is AJ has taken this derpy gimmick and RAN with it. She has the intensity and charisma to play this big and it’s worked. The bad is she’s not technically in-ring talent right now, so she’s basically high-jacking the show from the wrestlers.
My problem with this is there’s no point to it. She can’t make herself WWE champion, and she doesn’t seem to care who the champion is, as long as she’s the center of attention. She’s basically playing this as an insane child who sees RAW as her toy box, and if you don’t play “right” she sends you into the cornfield. (Twilight Zone Reference:”It’s a good life.”) To me, this is a waste.  AJ is just playing with her “power,” and doesn’t really seem to care about accomplishing anything.

Here’s another thing, WHO THE HELL ARE THE GOOD GUYS AROUND HERE? Going back to AJ, why should I be happy about her sticking it to the heels if she’s just going to turn around and be nasty to the faces? Are Bryan and Kane supposed to be good guys? Why is Bryan still a douche? WHO AM I SUPPOSED TO ROOT FOR?

That’s all for this week boys and girls. I’ll see you next week with another Rytman recap and rant.

The post RYTMANS RAW RECAP 10/01/2012 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

“This may sound a little strange coming from someone who’s straight edge, but… I LOVE LAS VEGAS!” – CM Punk

Punk takes us back to the “pipe bomb” promo of last year and talks about how a guy who looks/talks/acts like him would never have been on the first RAW, let alone champion for eight months. He plans on holding that title next week on the 1000th episode.

Cue:Big Show

Whatever Punk. Show talks about how he was inches away from winning….

Crowd: BIG SHOW SUCKS! BIG SHOW SUCKS!

“That is rude, I have a point I’m trying to make, please.” – Big Show

As usual, John Cena was in the right place at the right time, and if he had won the contract, he would cash it in right now.

Punk interupts with how almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. Show did what he always does, leave destruction in his wake… and lose. He has everything he needs to be Mr. MiTB, but he lost. That’s why Punk has the WWE title, and the respect of all the fans.

Show laughs. Punk thinks these people respect him? They don’t even respect themselves. If Punk left tomorrow, it’d be about a week before they moved on. Punk isn’t special, he’s just another cog in the machine.

Punk is WWE champion, and Big Show is an underacheving, well-paid shell of a man, who just happens to be a giant.

Show reminds Punk John Cena is Mr. MiTB and he could cash the contract in, right after Show knocks out Punk in the main event.

Cole mentions the very first RAW is on Youtube right now, and King reminds us THE ROCK will be at RAW next week for the 1000th show.

Back from commercial. King/Cole tells us we can go to WWE.com and vote for which championship we want to see defended next week. Our choices are Santino’s U.S. title, Christian’s I-C title, or Layla’s DIVAS title.

Our first match tonight will be…

WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP: KINGSTON/KILLINGS (C) vs. THE PRIME TIME PLAYERS (O’NEAL & YOUNG)

Kingston and Killings come out with their pyro singing Little Jimmy (supposedly) and The PTP come out with AW hyping them on his headpeice. Cole and King mention them losing to Primo and Epico on the PPV last night, and AW taking a drink in the face from Kingston/Killings (guest commentators.)
K&K dominate the match with high-flying double teaming on Young as we go to commercial…

When we come back, the PTP have taken over and are taking turns beating down Kingston while AW keeps hyping them outside the ring. At one point AW actually fixes Young’s fro while Young chokes out Kingston. Kingston does make the tag and R-Truth comes in and cleans house. AW actually gets in an argument w/the ref, allowing Kingston to hit “Trouble in Paradise” from the outside. Killings hits the “Little JImmy” and gets the three count.

WINNERS-STILL CHAMPIONS: KINGSTON/KILLINGS

Backstage: Daniel Bryan wants to tell AJ he’s sorry for blaming her for everthing, and wants to admit something to her, But Eve interupts. She’s mad about Bryan bailling on her in the tag match last week, so she went to the Board Of Directors to demand a match with the partner of her choice against Bryan and the pipsqueak AJ.

“And you know what they say about payback… it’s exactly what you are AJ.” – Eve

Eve exits, and AJ ask Bryan what he was going to say. Bryan will tell her after they win. He goes in for a kiss. AJ looks confused, Bryan plants a kiss on her cheek, and exits.

We get a spot for Tout, encouraging us to send WWE a tout w/a hashtag for RAW and we might get to be on RAW.

We offically back, and we get a lok at John Cena’s first offical Tout, asking us to “Tout” our favorite RAW moments.

Zack Ryder is out first, as Cole reminds us how Ryder was the first WWE superstar to embrace social media. Ricardo Rodriguez introduces ALBERTO DEL RRRRRRIO who comes out w/o a custom car.

ALBERTO DEL RIO vs. ZACK RYDER

Zack gets in some offense, but the match is just about a squash, with an aggressive Del Rio brutalizing Ryder andgeting the submission w/the armbar.

WINNER: ALBERT DEL RIO

After the match, Del Rio continues to beat on Ryder until…

Cue: MYSTERIO!

BOOYA! BOOYA! 619! Rey Mysterio makes his big return with a charge to the ring and a brawl with Del Rio. Rey hits the 619 and Del Rio scurries off.

Heath Slater does a Monday Night Memorable Moment promo. It’s a “highlight” package of Slater getting punked out by various WWE alumni while Slater puts a blatantly phony positive spin on each moment.

When we come back, Slater will be facing another returning RAW legend.

DID YOU KNOW?: WWE Monday Night Raw has ran moe episodes than ALLTHREE CSI shows combined.

We’re back w/Slater in the ring claiming he’s not stupid. The music hits…

Cue:RIKISHI!

HEATH SLATER vs. RIKISHI

Rikishi has retuned to back dat ass up into Heath Slaters face. This is a quick squash w/Rikishi crushing Slater… almost litterally.

WINNER: RIKISHI

The arena goes black. When the light comes back, we’ve got Jimmy and Jay Uso, Rikishi’s sons, in the ring for an Uso family dance party.

When we come back, AJ and Bryan will face Eve and her mystery partner.

Monday Night RAW has out ran shows like Lassie, Law & Order, The Simpsons, and Smackdown. Next week is show 1000 and we go to three hours.

We come back to Eve making her entrance while we recap Bryan bailling on her last week to prove his love of AJ. Eve introduces her partner….

Cue:THE MIZ!

AAAAAAAAAAAWESOME!

The Miz comes out with his new haircut and jacket,

DANIEL BRYAN/AJ vs. EVE/THE MIZ

Bryan and Miz get a few seconds in the ring, but once AJ tags in, it’s her and Eve carrying the lion’s share of the workload. We get a solid two/three minutes before AJ hits the running knee lift. AJ goes for the pin but Miz distracts the ref. An angry AJ hits a dropkick on Miz, taking him off the apron. Miz and AJ trade smirks (I think Miz was impressed.) and Miz charges back in. Eve gets a small package on AJ, but the Miz is still arguing w/the ref. Bryan reverses the package and AJ gets the three count.

WINNERS: BRYAN AND AJ

After the match, Bryan confesses his feelings for AJ, AND ASKS HER TO MARRY HIM! AJ takes a minute and says YES!

AJ and Bryan lead the crowd in a huge “YES” chant in celebration.

Still to come tonight, more on John Cena’s MiTB win and WWE champion CM PUNK vs. THE BIG SHOW.

Monday Night Memorable Moment: The Rock steals Stone Cold Steve Austin’s skull design title belt, and tosses both the belt and Austin off a bridge.

We’re back. AJ and DB have both sent out tweets announcing their wedding next week on the 1000th RAW

JACK SWAGGER vs. RYBACK

Cole and King mention how Swagger has to start winning matches again. Ryback comes out and King pretty much gives up on that.
Swagger attacks Ryback in the ropes and actually gets in more offense that anyone else ever has. It’s short lived, and Ryback rebounds with force and fury. The match never offically started so neither man gets a win or a loss, but Ryback leaves Swagger laying on the floor.

NO CONTEST

We come back from commercial. We recap a “tout” from Cena earlier today. Cena will have a big announcement concerning his MiTB briefcase.

EXCUSE ME!!! Vcki Guerreuo introduces WHC MiTB winner Dloph Ziggler. Everyone who’s won a MiTB briefcase has cashed it in to become a champion, that means Ziggler is the next WHC, and will be the best champion of all time. It’s undisputed and…

Cue: JERICHO

Chris Jericho walks to the ring, but Ziggler cuts him off before he can say anything. This is HIS moment and Jericho isn’t leeching off of him. Jericho didn’t win MiTB last night, in fact , Ziggler can’t remember when Jericho last won an importan match. He’s all hype, and he’s losing his touch.

Jericho responds by “touching” Ziggler with the codebreaker. Dolph is left laying… but gets up smiling. Jericho walks back looking botherd by Dolph’s words.

We come back from commercial to a montage of “Touts” from WWE fans. Next Monday will be the wedding of AJ and Bryan, the return of DX, Brock Lesnar responds to Triple H’s challenge, and THE ROCK!

Funk is on a roll, and we get the big intro for Brodus Clay and the Funkadayctals.

Christian has won the WWE.com poll and will be defending the I-C title next week on RAW 1000.

We come back from commercial with our offical invite to the wedding, and an announcment that AJ and Bryan will be on “The Peep Show” w/Christian. JTG, sporting the new look, is introduced as the opponent for the Funkasaurus.

BRODUS CLAY vs. JTG

JTG keeps this from being a total squash by working the bad leg on the funkasaurus, but in the end is no match for Clay’s size and power.

WINNER: BRODUS CLAY

We get a dance party with some tykes, a promo for Punk vs. Show and Donald Trump’s most memorable monday night moment is Vince trying to hide his freshly shaved bald head from the crowd, only to have Bobby Lashley reveal it to the crowd.

We come back from commercial with a reminder of DX kicking off the 1000th episode next week with a reunion. CM Punk is introduced. Cole and King mention that if Punk gets knocked out, Cena could cash in his MiTB briefcase and take the title.
Big Show is out next as Cole reminds us we go to three hours each week, next week.

WWE CHAMPION C.M. PUNK vs. THE BIG SHOW (non title)

The first half of the match is Show beating down Punk with big right hands, slams, and chokes. Show misses a WMD and Punk takes over with some vicious strikes. Punk hits a macho an elbow for two, but gets caught in a chokeslam for two. Show pummels Punk in the corner and gets DQ’d when he shoves the ref down.

WINNER BY DISQUALIFICATION: CM PUNK

Show continues to beat on Punk. He sets the WMD but Cena’s music hits and Show gets out of the ring. Cena gets the mike and gets set to deliver his announcement, but Show interupts, trying to bait Cena into cashing in on Punk. Cena responds by saying he’ll cash it in on the 1000th episode when he and Punk are both fresh, and clocking Show in the head with the briefcase.

AND WE’RE OUT

The post RYTMANS RAW REVIEW 07/17/2012 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

I watch, write, suffer, and succumb to this show, yet have to remind myself of what happened only minutes after each episode. That is how G’s Smackdown reviews work. This is not a play-by-play recap, there’s enough of those online. This is a highly-opinionated take of the show in question.

– Interesting fact, this is the first time the WWE Title has been defended on Smackdown in over 4 years. Huh, see THAT’s a relevant Did You Know? segment.

– Sheamus comes out to talk about Del Rio becoming the number one contender last week for the Great White’s title. He attempts to justify his unwarranted attack on Alberto. Sheamus tells us it’s because Del Rio is a privileged son. Yep, our face champion is a bully. Otunga comes out for some reason, complete with his coffee mug which is full of baby oil (I’m convinced!). Otunga is here, actually, to get an apology from Sheamus about to Laurinaitus… he’s being ordered. Sheamus ignores this… out comes Del Rio who calls Sheamus a “street hooligan,” etc. Otunga tells us Del Rio gets to choose Sheamus’ opponent tonight since he won’t apologize, so Sheamus Brogue Kick’s Otunga, fella.

Ashes, ashes, we all fall down… kind of like this segment. Well, it wasn’t that bad, kind of mediocre. At least no naked drug fueled people ate anyone’s face off, so there’s that.

-* Sin Cara vs. Heath Slater. I remember seeing these guys refilm the same match 3 times last summer when Smackdown rolled through Calgary. Are you ready for some botched spots? No? TOO BAD:

Evidence!

No, we’re NOT done:

Proof! Can’t stand after a kick? Whaaaaa?

FAR from over….

He calls this finisher, “I Fall Down”

– Sin Cara is wearing some new ring gear, but nothing to click home about (on your web-browser). He’s still doing the trampoline and finger pointing, and Heath Slater still sucks, so not much has changed. Slater gets some serious offense in at the start, stomping a Southern Mud Hole into the former Mystico. Meanwhile, at home, Randall Keith Orton is watching this thinking “this could be me, no wait… I wouldn’t job out to the Wendy’s guy.” Sin Cara reverses the momentum, flippy flops some delicious lucha moves and gets the pin and win after a pair of sick top rope crossbody splashes sandwiched between a bunch of other crap BWF Radio’s own (and ROH reviewer) J.T. detests. And by detests, I mean loathes. And by loathes, I mean FUCKING HATES. Yes in caps locks. Me? I enjoyed this, even though Heath Slater was in it.

C/O of Al Creed of many comics… many of them. Click the image. The was an 8-bit request that was sated by the master himself. Kevin Spencer and Allan the Magic Goose as they would appear in an NES game. Love it, or leave it. It’s epic Canadian comedy and animation. Look it up here. The first season was the most fucked up, and offensive. But anything featuring it’s main character as a delusional, chain smoking alcoholic preteen is likely to do that.

– * Damien Sandow vs. Ezekiel Jackson

Love Damien Sandow, you unwashed ignoramus.

We spoke a little bit about the Ivory/Chyna issues, and Ivory/Kat stuff last week on BWF Radio #24, so I deem this appropriate.

– Damien refuses to fight yet another ignoramus, and goes to leave. LOVE THIS GIMMICK. Big Zeke takes offense to this and attacks the stalwart representative of all things intellectual. Sandow hits something akin to a Diamond Cutter, and grabs the pin and win early. While he does this, he smirks, and puts his hand under his chin. This was awesome!

– Backstage, Ziggler meets with Del Rio petitioning to be the guy to face Sheamus tonight. Del Rio appreciates the passion in his eyes, congratulates him, shakes his hand (throw back to his debut?). Ziggler gets the match. Orton might have fucked up Ziggler’s opportunity to replace Jericho due to the flag-kicking incident, but at least this wasn’t a complete write off for Dolph WHO SHOULD BE PUSHED TO THE MOON… M-O-O-N, THAT SPELLS FUCKING MOON WWE! Even Tom Cullen knows that much… glad handed yes men assholes.

Charles Barkley @G: “This is my Wikipedia face. You love it, honkey.”

G @Charles Barkley: “Nah, your elitist stare to the right of the camera perspective suggests douche-baggery. Love yah Barks, but you might as well made the fish-face lips from an overhead perspective.”

– * Ryback vs. Ryan Shelton and Chris Lyons. This is the exact same thing you’ve seen week in and week out. The jobbers talk, Ryback eats some roids, comes out and kills them like the other guys from last week by slamming both at the same time after a shit tonne of power moves.

– A bunch of Big Show turning clips air in a clip package. Though Shalt Fast Forward. A bunch of blah blah, then Vickie Guerrero is out to be all shrill, but Dolph grabs the microphone from her and declares tonight he will face the world champion and immediately goes to the ring as Vickie looks a little miffed… MILFed? Nah, more miffed. Linda Hogan is the MILF apparently. Ugh.

– Commercial Break

[youtube k5WL6ETZSs0]
I too drive a Toyota. Feel humbled…

– * Non-Title Match: Sheamus {C} vs. Dolph Ziggler

I miss being a little mark, err, jimmy… no wait, that kid’s not invisible…. umm whatever. You get the idea.

– Our match gets under way quickly, and with fury. Ziggler continues to show off his ability to bump like a machine, as Sheamus continues to show off his inability to do so. While both men trade spots back and forth, the Great White’s limitations (or ego, perhaps?) stand out. Don’t get me wrong, this is a great start to a match but it’s clear who is carrying this one, folks. Sheamus tosses Ziggler, who flies HIGH, to the outside, and so naturally we get another commercial break since that’s the “go-to” thing for WWE lately…. sorry, no more IS Toyota commercials this time….

Adam gets a pass being outspoken as a Devils fan. Beth? What gives? If you want me to make a Sean Avery reference…. nah, to “inside.” Bandwagon implications will suffice. Some of you saw what I did there…

– We return with the Irish champion in control… Ziggler is able to escape to the outside as Vickie is losing it on the referee. The announcers continue to sell Ziggler’s declaration he made that he’s better than this stable crap, and Ziggler regains momentum almost getting a 10 count on Sheamus. Ok, this is cool! Ziggler has Sheamus locked into a sleeper hold AND CONVERTS INTO A HEADSTAND WITH THE HOLD LOCKED ON! EPIC!

YES! YES! YES!

– While it’s not enough, I mark out. Check out Vickie swooning in that picture. Sheamus finally breaks free, and teaches Dolph how to count. BUT NO!!! Sheamus gets some more near falls, but nothing resembling a finisher, and unless you are new to the wrasslin’, you know what that means. The men trade more near falls, until Sheamus locks in his new side slam, and sets up for the Brogue Kick… but Ol’ Swags interferes, Ziggler gets up telling Jack to beat it, and the distraction allows Sheamus to land the Brogue Kick for the pin and the win. Watch this match, you will be entertained!

– CM Punk is interviewed by Matt Striker. Hates Johnny Ace, respects but will beat Kane, etc. Not the best Punk promo by any stretch of the imagination. Meh. They can’t all be winners folks, and that’s why the best stand out from the pack when he does drop a Duke Nukem pipebomb.

I would push you into the hoard to survive. I have my contingency plans. Speaking of which…

– * Santino Marella and Zack Ryder vs. Darren Young and Titus O’Neil. The heels cut a decent inset promo declaring themselves as “The Prime Time Players” and their “Millions of Dollars” catchphrase. It isn’t great, but it’s good and we desperately need new tag teams if the division is ever going to come back to relevance. The comedic duo are out to challenge the heels in a fairly typical little bout. I’ll give the Prime Time players this, even when given a shit salad to work with (Santino rolls Young up in under 2 minutes), they work together as a legit tandem. Tragic finish here…

Best cover to date…

– But this is all set up for Big Show to come out and murder Santino and Ryder post match. Show makes quick work of the funny boys, with Ryder taking most of the brunt of the angry-crying giant’s wrath via ring barrier, steel steps, and the like. Show drags the steps up the ramp so the audio can pick out the metal grinding upon itself. NICE TOUCH! Then he squishes the Italian Stallion’s face into it before he humbles him with a modified Camel Clutch… WMD on the back of Santino’s head as the children in the crowd are seen all sad,and whatnot.

Oh come on now. This is EXACTLY what you wanted to do after the second or third time that little fucker told you the princess was in another castle.

– Backstage, AJ runs into Bryan who tells her Punk is using her and doesn’t care about her. AJ questions this and asks why he would care. Bryan makes headgames references. Segment ends.

– * Cody Rhodes vs. Tyson Kidd. Christian joins commentary for the peeps and to observe my fellow Calgarian likely get squashed here. Frowny face, dammit. Rhodes makes quick work of my boy, Tyson. Big shocker here. Meh. Enhancement talent my ass, Kidd should be in Tom Cullen’s top five. Shucky Ducky Quack Quack.

– * WWE Title Match: CM Punk {C} vs. Kane. I suppose it can’t be Bryan vs. Punk every week… but Kane? Argle Bargle, Rabble Rabble Rabble.

– Cesaro clips… but not on the show… He’ll be back next week to squash Kidd, I suppose.

– Punk clearly wants to get a good match out of Kane here, the latter who lumbers around commanding one to hit the old FFW button. Can’t… do… it…. I will likely regret this. In the dying hours of Smackdown never bodes well after working from 8AM – 11PM for this here G. Plus when one introduces cold high quality Canadian Beer (the rest of you drink swill), things get awkward. The two feel each other out in what appears to be a 20 minute segment. REALLY? Fuck it, post match reflection time… watching only now…

Down with the Count…

– Our final spot is an ECW unaired DVD ad, and the two men trading spots. Sadly, it’s pretty run of the mill. AJ makes her way to ringside as well. As much I like the Punk/Bryan program, and whatnot, this is a holding pattern match. Triple Threat spoilers leaked where they shouldn’t have… thus ruined the mainevent for me. Maybe not you… Basic observation: AJ emotes, Kane “sparkles”, Punk hates all of this except his paycheck. Things get interesting as Punk goes to land a Macho Elbow, but AJ’s encouragement distracfs him and allows a little Bryan interference. Kane recovers… Chokeslam? NO!! NO!! NO!!! Bryan lands a toprope kick on Kane, DQ!

– The two indy stars battle…. AJ looks on. Kane fucks them up because they forgot about him….. Enter People Power! No Way Out title match is Kane/Bryan/Punk. All we feared has become reality.

I criticize because I care. I did enjoy the show. I wouldn’t watch if I didn’t love this shit.

The WWE logo comes up, and I’m out.

The post Smackdown 06/01/12 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

Or not…

I watch, write, suffer, and succumb to this show, yet have to remind myself of what happened only minutes after each episode. That is how G’s Smackdown reviews work. This is not a play-by-play recap, there’s enough of those online. This is a highly-opinionated take of the show in question.

– Right off the bat, it’s announced that there will be a Heavyweight Title match tonight between Bryan and Orton. Then Sheamus comes out to talk. The crowd pops huge for him. Sheamus notes that statistics show that at least one title changes hands in the Elimination Chamber, so he will wait until the end of that PPV to make his choice. Makes sense, you can’t prep for an unknown opponent, right? I like that fact. Then he links it into some bullying story, whatever. Out comes Wade Barrett… His argument he should just go for the WWE title since Barrett’s winning the title and would destroy Sheamus at WrestleMania. Even calls him a Ginger! LOL! This begins the parade of EC opponents… Rhodes… Big Show… Show plays the face card and runs down the two heels… Barrett calls Show a punchline at WM, then Rhodes gets the lines of the night:

Rhodes: “He’s right… apparantly Giants can win the Superbowl, but, not matches at WrestleMania. You’re like… like… the reverse Undertaker. Who are you going to lose to this year? The Monster? The Sumo Wrestler?”

– Then Show knocks him the fuck out. Actually, Show is likely to lose to Shaq this year, if the rumours are correct. At least it won’t be Mr. T, right Rowdy One?

Last seen pitying fools in 2007.

– * Jinder Mahal vs. The Mediocre Khali. Ok, so they stepped up the cultural stereotype once more on Mahal this week. Yep, he’s got his Turban, traditional Punjab robes, facial hair, etc. And now, a glass podium with a pillow which he places his turban in. Little known fact: Beneath the pillow lies the laptop that was the Anonymous RAW GM. Khali is one hurting guy… can barely walk to the ring, this is hard to watch, so I don’t. It’s staged violence, I don’t really want to watch this guy kill himself… even though Khali has never been one to impress this particular smark. Khali wins with a chokeslam in about 2 minutes.

Zoidberg is a huge fan of Tetris.

– Cue the remix of Val Venis’ theme song for an Aksana/Long PG TELEVISION SEGMENT> Thank fucking god for Daniel Bryan who interrupts sexual innuendo, demanding “What in the hell is going on here?!?” Long held a BBQ in the parking lot today, and Bryan calls him on the charring of delicious beef, chicken, etc. Bryan defines Veganism, and says he’s sick to his stomach and won’t defeat tonight… Long tells him he HAS to compete. Fun segment.

– A reminder ad that HBK returns Monday… don’t care for this story or match (even though I am sure HHH and Taker will do a great job)… but I am already marking out to get some Shawn Micheals in my wrestling diet, regardless.

Buckle-up kids! And distracted Moms.

– * WWE Divas champion Beth Phoenix vs. Alicia Fox. Why didn’t they give Alicia the fucking farting gimmick? I’ll never know… really no one should get that career killer shtick. Phoenix makes quick work of Alicia with a Glam Slam. Post match, she looks to further the abuse, but Super Fly Tamina goes for the save… or stare-down, if you will. At least that will be a believable challenge. Hell, Beth smiles a bit at the prospects within that program.

Oh shit, an actual challenger?

– Tyson Kidd discusses farting with Natalya backstage. She farts, he leaves. Hornswoggle enters, and passes out as a result. The Anvil begins plotting his invasion of Titan Towers. Terrible.

Charles Barkley @G: “Damn, that air is rank!”

G @Charles Barkley: “Please don’t encourage them, Barks. This is fucking retarded.”

– * Cody Rhodes/Wade Barret vs. The Big Show/Sheamus. Typical put together tag match from the opening segment’s tension. Weird intro though, as Show enters first, then the heels, and then Sheamus last. Odd. Rhodes is pretty heeltastic to start, seemingly abandoning his partner and Show drags the Wade in and slaps him… Rhodes is avoiding all, and any confrontation. He avoids a true battle as Wade confronts the Great White. Wash, rinse, repeat. It’s not a bad thing, as it defines differences amid the heel/face characters involved… kind of like D&D alignments…

Commercial break. Yes, some Autobots’ actions were rather questionable.

– We return from obviously missed action… Sheamus tags in Show to mangle Rhodes. All men involved are working hard, so I can’t complain. I tune in for WRESTLING not VIDEO SEGMENTS after all. Great little match. After everyone gets their spots in, Sheamus Brogue Kicks Wade Barrett for the win.

– * Michael Cole interviews AJ. There is only one way to shill this. Either AJ admits this was all the master plan of Daniel Bryan (rushing though)…. OR… OR…. They have her allude to this fact and build on some kind of “investigation.” Cole is typical heel here, pointing out no one really knows who the fuck she is (they don’t). Then he swerves, kind of, asking the real big question, “Why were you even at ringside?”. AJ notes Daniel asked her to be there, and that the Big Show may have not had any intention… the real person who has done worse damage is… MICHAEL COLE. She calls him on Cole’s running down Bryan on commentary, as well as the ENTIRE Diva’s division. Wait, what? ALL TRUE. Even goes on to CUT OFF COLE! FUCKING AWESOME. “As far as I am concerned, the entire WWE would be a better place if you, would just shut your mouth.” Cole retorts in asshole form that this is his job. Cole gets to the big issue, that Bryan set her up to get run over by The Giant. Then he calls her a whore, basically. Fucking awesome!

– Bryan interrupts and tells Cole if he continues, he will break both of his arms. Bryan cuts another awesome promo as the crowd is in epic heat mode. He hits all his bullets running down the Superbowl, meat, gluttony, alcohol, etc. He wonders after that debachury of consumption “How many of you recycled?” He cares about the environment. HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHA! Please go watch this who segment, I go watch it a second time.

I recycle. I return things to heaven or hell with my handy blowtorch.

– After this great promo, Bryan tells the audience he is taking AJ home. He is taking a “personal day.” So Long interrupts and tells him if he leaves the building, he loses the title. Once again, his excuses to weasel out of the title match are more original than anything in a long fucking time. Go now, go watch. Stop reading this garble… SOPA/PIPA is only delayed, do it now while you still can…

– * Hunico vs. Ted DiBiase

It’s true… It’s damn true.

– Low-rider bikes… Posses… I don’t even care. FFW. This program is dead. Someone won, didn’t care. I choose Dibiase, if I have to.

– Johnny Ace, still-employed, hits a cell phone promo with Cole… falling asleep… ohh fuck…:

– * World champion Daniel Bryan vs. Randy Orton.

The “Great One” told him to eat a hamburger, thus ending his streak in Phoenix. He ate one in Calgary, Alberta, Canada a couple games ago…

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmVusVh4TRQ[/youtube]
Hey, at least it isn’t Heath Farley. Wrong Jokinen. Turrible puns.

– I went into this tired and already pessimistic. This a very good match. With about 15 minutes, the two are able deploy psychology and build a story. And as result, both grapplers appear strong, thus, good booking. In the third television segment, the Big Show joins commentary, only to not talk about his murder of AJ for a minute… When he does talk, it’s cryptic. The boys in the ring elevate towards high spots. I think we have a good chemistry right now… Probably a test match for Mania. FREE TELEVISION, GO WATCH THIS FOR FREE. Our finish looks to be a Viper Matt Punch Tantrem, but NO!!! Bryan rolls away, tries to walk out with the title…

– NOOO!!!! Big Show comes off commentary, and his interference gives the DQ win to Bryan. Youtube, now.

I criticize because I care. I did enjoy the show. I wouldn’t watch if I didn’t love this shit.

The WWE logo comes up, and I’m out.

The post Smackdown: 02/10/12… No Funkasaurus appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  In one of the most shocking WWE has ever done, WWE not only had CM Punk win the WWE title but allowed him to “leave” with it. I never in a million years would’ve thought that this would happen, thought I have a pretty good feeling that we’ll be seeing him on WWE television real soon.  And for those who didn’t know already, Punk was at a Chicago Cubs game during RAW and was tweeting pictures of the Game on his twitter account.  Yes I have a twitter.

2.  Google+ are you on there?  All of the BWF crew is.

3.  Wait Christian is World Champ again?  And he didn’t immediately lose it to Randy Orton on Friday’s Smackdown?  YES!  I said last week that the time is now for him to be World Champion and it’s good that WWE is giving us what we want for a change.

4.  Daniel Bryan is Mr. Money In The Bank?  You got to be bullshitting me?  Wait, he really is?  I can’t believe it, WWE actually giving us what we really want not once, not twice but 3 times in one night!  It looks like someone has lost his mind and WWE needs some new leadership.    And while I can see him waiting until Wrestlemania to cash it in, I think he will cash it in before then.

5.  Anybody know how much Gene Simmons got paid every time Rey Mysterio wrestled or was supposed to wrestle on RAW?

6.  Sin Cara was suspended this week for a wellness violation but I’m also hearing that he won’t be coming back after the suspension either, but I’m also that the second part is going to be his next storyline too.  if he doesn’t come back, I won’t miss him too much.

8.  RAW had a pretty predictible tournament to crown a new WWE Champion with the finals being held tomorrow night on RAW between Rey Mysterio and The Miz.  Way to make new stars WWE.

9.  I didn’t buy for a second that John Cena was going to be fired by WWE.

10.  In what was of of the longest drawn out segments, HHH returned and is taking over Vince’s duties.  I’m gonna have to wait to see how this all plays out but HHH ruined a pretty decent segment at the end of RAW last week.

11.  Mark Henry puts both the Big Show and Kane on the shelf in the same week, I’m glad I’m not a Smackdown wrestler.

12.  After stating on how crappy Heath Slater is and how good Justin Gabriel is, we see Slater but not Gabriel.  Why do I think WWE is gonna push Slater heavily while Gabriel ends up going the Superstars route?

Well that’s all I’ve got for now thanks again for reading and for those who don’t know already, I’ll be on vacation the next couple weeks so nothing from me until I get back.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  RIP Clarence Clemons.

2.  RIP Ryan Dunn.

3.  I hearing that people are saying that Green Lantern sucked, haven’t heard anybody actually say that though. This writers opinion is that the movie didn’t suck in fact that not only was it awesome, but one of the best comic book movies made.

4.  Dolph Ziggler is US Champ again.  For some reason, I just don’t care this time.  I saw this whole Ziggler/Kofi feud on Smackdown already ant it doesn’t really do anything for the two guys now.

5.  Ezekial Jackson is the new IC Champ.  Wait the IC Championship is still around?????  No seriously this is good for him though if he didn’t get injured I think he would be in the main even picture by now.

6.  So RAW was “Power To The People” this past week.  Well when watching the shoe I had the feeling that some of the fan choices were’t legit and I said it on another website’s forums and of course like usual on that site I was immediately shut down and told that they were legit.  Then on Tuesday WWE announces that some of the fan choices were actually not legit!  (I mean Mason Ryan really?)  Well I guess WWE won’t go with text messaging the voting again.

7.  Total number of votes cast by me during RAW  last Monday: 0

8.  Mason Ryan getting “Batista” chants.  Not sure of that really all that good for him.

9.  Christian, R-Truth, and The Miz’s confrontation was one of the best things I’vever seen on RAW.  Too bad Teddy Long had to screw it up by interrupting them.

10.  CM Punk’s contract is up on July 17 and he is gonna leave the WWE with the WWE title!  Um yeah methinks that he resigned.

11.  RAW Roulette next week, really?  Why cant we have a couple weeks in between gimmick shows?

12.  Jobbo Guerrero was released this week. Now who’s gonna put Hornswoggle over?

13.  Anybody notice that since becoming a referee, Nunzio is the most mic’d referee ever?  Well it seemes to me that way.

14.  The new Anthrax song off their new album coming out September 13 which is the day before a certain writer of this article will be seeing them at Yankee Stadium along with Megadeth, Slayer and Metallica.  This is Anthrax first new album since 2003 and the first album with Joey Belladonna since 1990’s Persistence Of Time.

Well thats all I’ve got this week.  Thank you all for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  A big congrats to our fearless leader ThinkSoJoE who got married this past week.  Hope you two have a great life together.

2.  The big rumor going around is that the reason for Kharma’s big breakdown on RAW this past week is that she is pregnant and will be written out of storyline this week. If she is congrats.  I guess I can now go back to ignoring the Divas again.

3.  Nice tribute by CM Punk this week on RAW wearing the Macho Man style trunks and boots.  When I first saw him in the night I thought “what’s up with the boots?” but then later on when he wrestled it made more sense.

4.  WWE also did a nice tribute to Macho Man too.

5.  So, Michael Cole is back to being (or at least trying to) a babyface announcer on RAW while still being a heel announcer on Smackdown.  Really WWE????

6.  Otunga & McGuillity are the tag champs now with help from CM Punk kicking Big Show in the back of the head. Well I gues Punk has the new superkick of final ultimate doom or whatever Green Teabagger calls it.

7.  Here we go guys we’re finally getting the Alex Riley push we’ve been waiting for since he was supposed to win NXT season 2.  Oh wait, now one cares!

8.  It looks like Dolph Ziggler ran out of hair dye since he’s now back to the blonde hair.  Good for him.

9.  Sheamus is now #1 Contender for the worle title on Smackdown, wait didn’t we already have Orton vs. Sheamus feud on RAW for the WWE title last year?  Wasn’t the draft supposed to shake things up? While I don’t mind Sheamus in the title picture, I just don’t like more of the same, I just don’t.

10.  Sin Cara still sucks even with the special lighting he gets with his matches.

11.  Apparently Chyna has shot another adult film, tentatively called “Backdoor Into Chyna” and is set for release later this year.  As someone who didn’t bother seeing the last one, I will not be watching this one.

12.  I got the new CD by The Rods called Vengeance.  It’s a great CD and features one of the final recorded song by the late great Ronnie James Dio so check it out.  It is however only available on iTunes, amazon.com and thru their website therods.com.

13.  The NBA Finals are here and feature the Dallas facing the best team money can buy Miami Heat in a rematch of their 2006 finals in wich Miami won.  Well I think this time things will be different and Dallas will finally win it.

14.  The NHL finals are here too pitting the Boston Bruins vs the Vancouver Canucks.  Well what can I say, I’m not a big fan of hockey but I know that my hometown Syracuse Crunch were once the farm team for the Canucks.  That being said I’ll pick the Canucks for the to win the Stanley Cup!

15.  Last but not least, I went against all I’ve said and got a smartphone this past week and have to say that I quite like it. I even have this site tagged as a favorite and it is quite readable from my phone.

Well i guess that’s all for now thanks again for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  I like R-Truth’s new heel persona.  I was a fan of him as a face but as a heel this is taking him to a whole new level.  Lets just hope ths will end up wit a title reign for him or at least a main event push.

2.  For those who don’t know John Morrison’s neck injury will cause him to be out only 6-8 weeks, so lets say just as R-Ttuth is about to pin Ceena for the WWE title. (yes I know he is going to be jobbing feuding with Rey Mysterio but one can only hope)

3.  Punk is apparently leaving WWE later this year when his contract is up.  If true this sucks but explains why he’s been kinda non existent lately.

4.  Dolph Ziggler’s new look is crap, he just looks like one of the guy’s in the back.  Remember his main event push over on Smackdown, that was earlier this year.

5.  I’m tired of the Michael Cole vs. Jerry Lawler feud.  Hopefully thhis will end at Over The Limit or whatever next weeks ppv is. (Hey it’s 9 am here, the brain isn’t totally working yet)

6.  Why do I have a feeling that the Corre and Nexus are gonna group together and take out Kane and Big Show????

7.  Impact Wrestling, really?  I’m glad I’m done with that company.

8.  Chyna has returned to TNA  or Impact Wrestling whatever it’s called.  It’s nice to see them rely on someone who hasn’t wrestled in almost 10 years.  Did I mention that I was glad I’m done with that company.

9.  What’s up with the funny lighting during the Sin Cara/ Daniel Bryan match. Does the suckitude of Sin Cara need special lighting to experience it.

10.  Chavo Guerrero has been found!  Well I mean WWE found another little guy for him to job to since it looks like he will be jobbing feuding with Sin Cara real soon.

11.  Remember when Ted DiBiase was going to be the breakout star after Legacy broke up.  That thought came into my head when I saw him wrestle the guy who ended did it Cody Rhodes.  Talk about a tale of two cities.

12.  Mark Henry as a heel, meh for right now.  I’ll give him a little time on this one.

13.  Anyone seen Hornswoggle since Wrestlemania.  Oh yeah he was at Rock’s birthday celebration, sorry about that.

14.  Jinder Mahal is quite interesting right now in that I am hearing that he is gonna be responsible in an upcoming Great Khali heel turn.  Khali as a heel > Khali as a face.

15.  Um, I don’t watch Tough Enough or Superstars so I can’t talk about them.

16.  I’m not a big NBA fan, only paying attention to the playoffs since 1998, so I was surprised to find out that the Chicago Bulls ended up with the best record int the NBA this year and won 60 games for the first time since the Jordan/Pippen era and are one of the final four teams left to win it all.  If they do then I might just have to get out my 15 year old Bulls jersey and wear it. And yes it still fits.

Well that’s all for this week, thanks for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

Anyway, last night was Tables, Ladders, and Chairs!  Who walked out victorious with the WWE Championship?  Did John Cena defeat Nexus leader Wade Barrett?  Did I eat those cookies…?  I didn’t eat the cookies.  I remember now.

AWESOME!

We start out with WWE Champion The Miz coming out all by his lonesome!  Where’s Alex Riley?!  And no Michael Cole?! Thank God!! RAW’s starting out amazing!!

Miz says that he is STILL the WWE Champion.  We better get used to hearing ‘and still WWE Champion, The Miz’.  Doesn’t it have a nice ring to it?  He knows it’s tough for everyone to digest.  They were all expecting an announcement of “the NEW WWE Champion, Randy Orton”, but that didn’t happen, now did it?  The Miz beat Randy Orton, put him through a table and now…  Miz is interrupted by some ghostly music and Alex Riley comes out.

Riley says that he is the Ghost of Christmas Past.  He’s here to show Miz the error of his ways before it is too late.  Behold, his first ever WWE Title Defense, which was, of course, against Jerry “The King” Lawler, three weeks ago.  Miz says the error of his ways?  He’s actually proud of what he did.  He beat a WWE Hall of Famer and made sure that he will never be WWE Champion.  He doesn’t regret that moment, and he doesn’t regret any actions he’s ever done in the past.  He starts to go on, but is interrupted again by Cole, dressed up as the Ghost of Christmas Present.

Cole says “And I Quote…” Miz needs to change.  His actions from last night, in the tables match vs. Randy Orton were, although vintage, unacceptable.  He retained his championship through nefarious means, and he should be ashamed.  Miz says no, that’s where Cole’s wrong.  The actions of a true champion are defined by one sentence and one sentence only: Are they still WWE Champion after the match?  And yes, he was.  That is all that matters.  Randy Orton underestimated Miz, and Miz beat him.  So, here’s an image to put on your Christmas cards: Happy Holidays from The Miz!

Miz is interrupted again, but this time by a still image of Angry Miz girl, who tells Miz that she is the Ghost of Christmas Future, and she is very angry.

Miz needs to see the light and change his ways, or the new Number One Contender, John Morrison, will beat him.  Miz says that he is the future.  He is the face of this company, the most must-see champion in WWE history.  Charles Dickens himself couldn’t write a better story, because he’s The Miz, and he’s AWESOME!

Now listen, this ain’t no make believe…

John Morrison makes his way out, and ruins CM Punk’s night.   He says he’s surprised.  That was really stupid, even for Miz.  But, Morrison’s actually happy for his success, because last night, he beat Sheamus.  He climbed a ladder, grabbed a contract, and he’s the new Number One Contender.  That means that sometime soon, they will fight for that title.  And Morrison has news for Miz: He’s beat him in the past, in the present, and he knows he can beat him in the future.  And when he does, he will become the new WWE Champion.  Miz asks really?  And has kind of a really-off with the audience.  Miz says he’s always been better than Morrison, and Morrison couldn’t…  Before Miz can continue, Riley jumps in front of him, between Miz and Morrison, and shoves Morrison.  Miz exits the ring and Morrison goes after Riley.  While he’s pummeling away on Riley, King Sheamus runs down the ramp and decides he’s going to join in the fun!  He attacks Morrison, but misses, and Morrison unloads on Sheamus.  Riley gets out of the ring as Sheamus attacks Morrison’s injured leg.  Riley moved over to King, for some reason, and King punches him right in the face.  Miz walks up the ramp.

And I Quote:  “Miz, tonight, you will collide with your ghosts from the past, present, and future, in a six-man tag team match.  You, Alex Riley, and King Sheamus vs. John Morrison, Jerry Lawler, and Randy Orton.”

Miz is up on the stage now, holding up his championship and yelling about how he’s the champion, when he turns to go backstage, and Randy comes out.  Orton clotheslines Miz to the ground,

<VIDEO PACKAGE: Last night, John Cena pulls, as we now know, 23 chairs down on top of Wade Barrett.>

Coming up later, John Cena will address the WWE Universe.

<COMMERCIAL>

@Niki_Sushi Miz, you need to change and fall in love with me so we can get married and have butt-babies. #WhatColeIsSaying #BWF #RAW

@kickoutblog When was the last time John Morrison showered?

@kellylynndobson Backwards Bizarro set!!! This is not good. #RAW #BWF

@FrankWWEClown Did someone put drugs into my dinner tonight? Or am I really witnessing what I am watching on #RAW right now? #WWE

@Lunna1969 My 8 year old Niece just groaned and said that she wished CM Punk would read the GM messages! #RAW #WWE #BWF

Later on tonight, the WWE Champion The Miz, Alex Riley, and King Sheamus will face off against the team of John Morrison, Randy Orton, and Jerry “The King” Lawler.  The Diva’s Champion, Natalya joins Punk, King, and Cole ringside.

Melina vs Alicia Fox vs Eve Torres to determine the Number One Contender for the WWE Diva’s Championship

Natalya says that she’s feeling quite dreamy sitting next to King, and then ends up telling him to settle his tea kettle.

The match starts out, and Alicia Fox goes to town on both Eve Torres and Melina.  She switches back and forth between Eve and Melina for a while, throwing Eve out of the ring and concentrating on Melina.  Melina starts to fight back against Alicia, and then fends off Eve too.   All of them go for quick pins on one another, but none of them get further than two.  Then Melina gets Eve on the top turnbuckle.  Alicia grabs Melina onto her shoulders and holds her there, and then Eve goes to hit a flying cross body on the both of them, but Melina ducks under it, bringing Alicia with her, for a quick pin.

Melina wins via pinfall.

Natalya says it was impressive, and goes to congratulate her.  Punk tells her to waffle Melina upside the head, and Natalya ignores him.  She gets in the ring and goes to shake Melina’s hand, but Melina slaps the taste out of Natalya’s mouth and then walks out, her serious face on.

Nikki and Brie are arguing over Daniel Bryan, over which one is going to win his affections or something.  I have no idea, but it’s nasty.  Anyway, up next, Daniel Bryan has a match!

<COMMERCIAL>

@kickoutblog “These Divas are so hot.” CM Punk channeling Jerry Lawler circa 1999?

@HitTheRopes Why isn’t Gail Kim involved in this match?

@JonHexLives CM Punk: Small package. There’s a joke in there somewhere. #WWE #RAW #BWF

@KeepItFiveStar Oh shit! Melina heel turn! Follow her lead Heel Nikki! Follow her lead!

@Niki_Sushi As sick as I am of Melina being the only one getting title shots, it’s better than the Bellas getting a shot. #BWF #RAW

@kellylynndobson What did the five fingers say to the face……. SLAP! #BWF

It’s WWE week on USA!  Tonight, technically, Smackdown will be live on USA at 9/8 Central, and WWE Tribute to the Troops is on Wednesday night!  Also, Nexus probably won’t be here tonight.  Crying shame, that.

United States Daniel Bryan with the Bella Twins vs. William Regal

I marked out when I saw that his opponent was Regal.  I adore Regal.

Regal and Bryan lock up as Punk, King, and Cole try to figure out why Regal’s smiling.  Regal automatically throws Bryan to the ground, but Bryan jumps back on his feet and throws Regal down instead.  Regal bounces back up to his feet, and then shakes his finger at Bryan, which makes me laugh.  Regal drops Bryan to the ground, holding onto his arm, and then when Bryan gets up, Regal’s not letting go.  Bryan rolls over to get his arm untwisted, and then goes into this bridge thing for no reason, and then hits a dropkick on Regal.  They lock up again, and Bryan twists Regal’s arm this time.  Regal gets loose and proceeds to kick Bryan’s spine with the toe of his boot.  It apparently pisses Bryan off, because he shoots to his feet and punches Regal, then kicks him hard in the back repeatedly.  Bryan gets Regal in the corner and continues to kick him.  Bryan goes to whip Regal across the ring, but Regal counters and whips Bryan across.  Bryan runs up the ropes and flips over Regal, and then bounces off the ropes and right into Regal’s clothesline.  Regal goes for a quick pin, but Bryan kicks out at two.  Regal holds Bryan in a rather vicious looking headlock, but Bryan fights to his feet.  He lifts Regal out of the air and goes to drop him, but Regal takes him down with him.  Regal keeps the headlock applied, and Bryan fights to his feet, but Regal drops him back on the mat.  Regal finally lets go and punches Bryan in the head a few times, then goes for a cover, but Bryan kicks out at two.  Regal puts his knees in Bryan’s face, then hurls him across the ring.  Bryan bounces off the turnbuckle and then slams right into another clothesline from Regal.  Regal goes for a cover, but Bryan kicks out at two.  Regal then puts Bryan in a full nelson, holding him there as Bryan tries to fight out.  Bryan fights to his feet and then slams his ass against Regal, or at least that’s what it looks like.  Regal and Bryan exchange uppercuts for a while, and then Bryan gets the momentum, only to get punched in the stomach by Regal.  Regal goes for another uppercut, but Bryan catches him, going for a backslide.  Regal fights out of it, and then hits Bryan in the back of the head.  Regal now sets up for the Regal Stretch, but Bryan fights out of it and locks in the LaBell Lock, which Regal fights hard, for the win.

United States Champion Daniel Bryan wins via submission.

Regal applauds Bryan, and then the Bellas get in the ring and kiss Bryan.  Bryan looks confused, and I would be too.

Still to come, the WWE Champion The Miz teams up with Alex Riley and King Sheamus to take on John Morrison, Randy Orton, and Jerry “The King” Lawler!

<COMMERCIAL>

@Niki_Sushi Ugh. Fucking Daniel. All we need is ‘What’s up?’ and… shit, I dunno. OMGREGAL! Guess I’ll watch the match now. xD #BWF #RAW

@HitTheRopes Please give this match time #WWE

@KeepItFiveStar Please WWE, don’t make this 3 minutes long

@TKeep123 William Regal is making a Daniel Bryon match almost watchable! Alas, the Labell lock wins out. #WWE #RAW #BWF

@5CornersxSmootx #RAW #BWF Hide your kids, hide your wife, and call your friends because William Regal and Daniel Bryan is going on. IWC just creamed.

We come back to John Morrison preparing for this match backstage.  Randy Orton joins him and says that it looks like Morrison’s the new Number One Contender.  Morrison says that the match last night was bogus.  Orton says that if Morrison wins the Championship match against Miz, he’s going after Morrison.  Morrison says if that happens, he’ll be ready.  He trusts Randy will be ready.  Randy says that’s his first mistake: Do not trust him.

We flash to Santino laying on a towel, and Tamina standing on his back, apparently trying to work out some kink or something.  He asks if she knows what she’s doing, and she says not really.  Maryse walks up and says that it’s cute, ugly takes care of ugly.  It’s good to know after she and Ted beat them tonight, Tamina has a plan B.  Tamina calls her cupcake, and Maryse stands on Santino’s back too.  The two get in each other’s faces, but security carries them off, leaving Santino face down on the floor.

Mark Henry and Gail Kim are backstage talking about how the air is much fresher because for the first time in six months, the Nexus isn’t on RAW.  They continue to talk, but then are interrupted by Vickie Guerrero, who barks out an ‘excuse me!’ with Dolph Ziggler in tow.  Henry says he takes that back: The air is not as fresh as he thought it was.

<COMMERCIAL>

@KeepItFiveStar They finally found Tamina some shoes.

@Niki_Sushi Dude. It’s Christmas, not fucking Valentine’s Day. Stop humping each other and WRESTLE!!! #BWF #RAW

@5CornersxSmootx #RAW #BWF What a terrible response from Morrison. “Well uh, alright…..I’ll be ready.”

@HitTheRopes Creative meeting note: “How about we put Gail Kim in a match for #1 Contender for Diva Title…nah, a segment with Mark Henry is better.”

Santino Marella and Tamina vs Ted DiBiase and Maryse

Santino walks out, all bent over.  When they get to the ring, Tamina lifts Santino, cracking his back or something, and making it all better.  Santino looks like he’s going to hug her, but seems to remember that he has a match to participate in.  Santino and DiBiase start out, locking up.  Santino makes the Cobra with his hand, and then drops DiBiase to the ground.  DiBiase retaliates by punching Santino in the face.  DiBiase controls the match for a while, hitting a standing dropkick right to Santino’s chin.  DiBiase gets Santino in a headlock and holds him there, Santino reaching and grabbing for the ropes.  Santino fights to his feet and manages to duck the clothesline from DiBiase, and then hits a hip toss on DiBiase.  DiBiase rolls over to the corner, tagging Maryse in as Santino sets up for the Cobra.  Maryse stands behind Santino until he turns around, and Santino forcibly stops himself from hitting the Cobra on her, saying ‘It’s a girl’.  While he fights it, Maryse turns it around on him and he hits himself with the Cobra.  Tamina then comes in and super kicks Maryse right in the face.  She drags her to a corner, pulls her pigtails out, and then climbs up to the top rope.  She’s about to jump off, when Ted goes to get her, but Santino goes to hit the Cobra, only for Ted to send him to the mat.  Tamina hits the Superfly Splash for the win.

Tamina and Santino Marella win via pinfall.

Tamina glomps Santino, for that was exactly what that was, and Santino seems to have back problems again.  Then again, after taking that chair from Barrett last night and the beat down from Nexus, I’d have back problems too.  Tamina then carries a celebrating Santino up the ramp.

Backstage, John Cena makes his way to the ring, regifting some flowers and then drinking someone else’s coffee, I think.

<COMMERCIAL>

@KeepItFiveStar Tamina used health. Santino restored to 100 HP

@Niki_Sushi …. Did Tamina just Sweet Chin Music Maryse?! THAT’S COPYRIGHT INFRINGEMENT! #BWF #RAW

@HitTheRopes Tamina is wondering: How the heck did @TheBethPhoenix carry Santino around? Dude is NOT light.

@5CornersxSmootx #RAW #BWF WHY IS JOHN CENA STEALING FLOWERS AND DRINKING OTHER PEOPLE’S COFFEE? #HideYourFlowersHideYourCoffee #IhatePG

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR MISTLETOE!!!

Cena says that they’re extra fired up tonight, and he knows why.  Because tonight is epic, monumental.  He feels good about tonight, he’s gonna do something he should have done a long time ago.  He hugs the guy in the We Hate Cena guy, who looks ashamed.  Cena says that tonight, for the first time in six months, Monday Night RAW is Nexus-free!!  It makes him wanna dance, so he does the dougie.  He even says that they hit rock bottom.  He says it makes him wanna sing.  So, he sings to make Texas happy, of course.  He says that he’s so happy to be there that he has a treat.  He’s commandeered some footage from last night’s TLC.  It Is the footage describing the demise of Wade Barrett.

<VIDEO PACKGE: Cena puts a panel over Barrett, then pulls chairs on top of him.>

Cena plays it again, from another camera angle.  Then again, from another camera angle, and yet again in slow motion.  Punk is still aghast over this, by the way, and continues to call Cena a monster.  Cena says that he feels good when he gets a bargain, especially close to the holiday season.  Six months ago, he promised he would get to each and every member of the Nexus, and it took some time, but last night at TLC, he got to each and every member of the Nexus.  That means the winds have finally changed for Barrett and his group of turd burglars, and he can now focus on the more important things, like winning the Royal Rumble and going to Wrestlemania.

Then, it’s all ruined by Vickie’s screeching.  I MEAN, asking them to excuse her.

She and Intercontinental champion Dolph Ziggler come out.  Vickie says pardon the interruption, but no one hears her over the crowd.  Pardon the interruption, but John wasn’t the only one who won a match last night.  Cena says that there’s so much hatred in the air, he can’t hear her.  Every time she goes to talk now, the crowd won’t let her speak.  John’s dying as they completely swallow whatever she’s trying to say.  She continues to screech, and he continues to laugh.  Cena tells them to give her the floor, but they won’t do it.  Cena finally has to stand right in front of her to hear her, and finally tells everyone that she said he wasn’t the only one who won last night.  Vickie continues, and says that despite competing in a Triple Threat match, Dolph is still Intercontinental Champion.  And since Cena can show footage, Vickie can show her own footage.

<VIDEO PACKAGE: Last week at the Slammys, Jerry “The King” Lawler insults Vickie Guerrero.>

Vickie says that she has come to demand an apology, and if King doesn’t give her one, her boyfriend is going to beat him up.  Jerry asks if it was about her weight.  HE can’t help it if she’s the only Diva in the WWE whose bathtub has stretch marks.  Cena says that Vickie is so fat she wakes up in sections.  Jerry responds with when God said ‘let there be light’, he had to ask Vickie to step out of the way first.  John responds with ‘Vickie’s so fat, her baby pictures had to be taken via satellite.”  Dolph defends Vickie, and Cena stops Dolph, and says that Dolph called Vickie a double bagger, meaning Dolph has to put a bag over his head in case the one over her head breaks.  Dolph used to be afraid of the dark, but then he saw Vickie naked, and was afraid of the light.  It’s about here that Vickie slaps Cena.

And I Quote: “Since Vickie Guerrero is threatening that her boyfriend, Dolph Ziggler, will beat people up, let’s try it in a match tonight.  Dolph Ziggler vs. John Cena.  And that match will take place right now.”

Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler vs John Cena

Ziggler and Cena circle one another before locking up, and Ziggler wraps his arms around Cena and takes Cena down.  Ziggler goes for an early pin, but Cena gets out before Ziggler can even keep his shoulders down.  Cena and Ziggler lock up again, and Cena gets Ziggler in a headlock, but Ziggler gets to the ropes.  Cena backs off and watches Ziggler.  Ziggler holds his hand up and Cena goes to grab it, but Ziggler kicks him in the stomach and then attacks Cena in the corner.  Ziggler keeps his momentum, whipping Cena across the ring, but Cena counters and then hits the running bulldog on Ziggler, who rolls under the ropes.  Cena catches Ziggler’s foot that time, kicking Ziggler before hitting a fisherman suplex and going for the cover.  Ziggler kicks out, but Cena flings him across the ring, only to run right into the turnbuckle himself.  Ziggler gets up and attacks Cena.  Ziggler whips Cena across the ring, and Cena bounces off the turnbuckle.  Ziggler goes for a cover, but Cena kicks out.  Ziggler then this some hard kicks out Cena before punching him right in the face.  He does it again, knocking Cena down, and goes for a cover, but Cena kicks out.  Ziggler kicks Cena hard, but Cena drops Ziggler.  Cena goes for a cover, but Ziggler kicks out at two.  Cena whips Ziggler, who bounces off the ropes and kicks Cena before going for a cover, but Cena kicks out at two.  Ziggler locks in a hold of some kind, but Cena fights to his feet.  Cena then worms his way up and puts Ziggler up for the Attitude Adjustment, but Ziggler counters by dropping Cena face-first to the mat and then going for the cover, but Cena kicks out at two.

<COMMERCIAL>

@KeepItFiveStar Oh boy Dolph Ziggler is gonna job out like the guards did to Austin Power’s Dad in Goldmember.

@CMPunkSays If the #WWE ran Twitter, the Fail Whale would be replaced by the Failure Turtle.

@Niki_Sushi WWE made a bad move by having their money-maker act like a 10 year old bully. The guys may love it, but Mom’s gonna be pissed. #BWF #RAW

We come back to Cena gaining momentum, side slamming Ziggler to the mat.  Ziggler and Cena then take each other out with clotheslines.  The ref begins the count, and both men reach their feet, Ziggler first.  Ziggler then drops Cena back to the ground, going for a cover, but Cena kicks out at two.  Ziggler hits a dropkick to the jaw and goes for a cover, but Cena kicks out at two.  Ziggler went for another dropkick, but Cena avoids it.  Cena then comes back with a couple shoulder take downs and sets up for the Five Knuckle Shuffle, which he hits.  Ziggler gets to his feet, and Cena gets Ziggler on his shoulders.  Ziggler fights out and then tries for the sleeper, but Cena counters and locks in the STF.  Vickie stands on the edge, distracting the ref, as Ziggler taps out.  Cena starts to celebrate when he realizes that the ref never saw it.  Ziggler hits the Zig Zag, but Cena kicks out of the following cover at two.  Ziggler then undoes the cover on the turnbuckle, and the ref gets him away from it.  Ziggler grabs the Intercontinental Championship and goes to hit Cena with it, but Cena ducks it and hits the Attitude Adjustment for the win.

John Cena wins via pinfall.

Cena gets his arm raised in victory, and then CM Punk gets in the ring and beats Cena with a chair.  Punk then calmly walks away as Cena stands up and glares after Punk.

Coming up, the six man tag team match.

@KeepItFiveStar C’mon Ziggler! First you do the Fame-asser, then you do a cocky pin?

@ThingsColeSays The Feud That Diet Soda Built: CM Punk vs. John Cena

@kickoutblog Kick my cat, I kill your dog. Spill my diet soda, I hit you with a steel chair. #PhilosophyofPunk

Moments ago, Josh Matthews asked CM Punk why he attacked Cena.  Punk responded with the only thing Cena understands is aggression.  Last night, he brutalized Barrett with a steel chair, and tonight, Punk just gave him a dose of his own medicine.

Backstage, King’s getting ready for his match and is met by Sheamus.  Sheamus says that he sees King still carries around his old crown.  Unlike King, Sheamus earned his crown.  As far as Sheamus is concerned, there’s only room for one king around here.  They’ve been calling King King since 1974.  Sheamus says to spare him the history lesson, because as far as tonight is concerned, the King is dead.  Long live the King.

Vickie says that she went out there looking for an apology, and Dolph didn’t get her one.  Dolph responds that he’s challenging Cena to  a rematch tomorrow night.  Vickie says that it’s going to be a handicapped match: John Cena vs. Dolph Ziggler and her.

AWESOME!

Alex Riley and the WWE Champion The Miz make their way to the ring for their tag team match.

<COMMERCIAL>

@Niki_Sushi For all that talk about keeping yourself healthy… why isn’t CM Punk wearing a seat belt? #BWF #RAW

@kickoutblog Vickie is gonna kick Cena’s ass.

@KeepItFiveStar Dolph, last time you did this, Daniel Bryan beat you three times.

@TKeep123 “FELLA” in Lawler’s face…. “…I actually eRRRRNed this crown!” King vs King tonight! Hey, wheres the King of Kings? #WWE #RAW #BWF

WWE Champion The Miz, Alex Riley, and King Sheamus vs John Morrison, Jerry “The King” Lawler, and Randy Orton

The match starts out with Alex Riley and Randy Orton.  Orton doesn’t seem happy that Miz tagged in Riley right away, and he takes his rage out on Riley.  Orton drags Riley into the middle of the ring and jumps on him, his knees hitting his face.  Orton tags in Morrison, who hits Riley and sends him into the corner.  Morrison whips him into the other corner and then slams into him.  Riley is in Morrison’s corner, but tries to fight out.  Lawler is tagged in and fights against Riley before hitting a dropkick on Riley.  Riley fights back, slamming Lawler into his corner.  Riley tags Miz in and Lawler knocks Miz right off his feet.  Lawler tags in Orton, and Miz flees the ring, running in and tagging Sheamus in.  Sheamus looks like he’s not completely sure what the hell just happened, but climbs in the ring anyway.

<COMMERCIAL>

@kickoutblog Miz should be using The Roots version of his theme.

@Niki_Sushi Yes, Miz is awesome. Just because you’re screaming it into the mic doesn’t mean he’s going to be waiting in your hotel room, Cole. #BWF #RAW

@CMPunkSays You know what’s sad? Alex Riley has gained more notoriety than the guy who actually WON Season 2 of NXT.

@TKeep123 One last time to see Jerry “drop the strap”……. I”m hopeful! #RAW #WWE #BWF

We come back to Lawler being the one in the ring against Sheamus.  Sheamus distracts the ref and Riley gets in a cheap shot.  Sheamus goes for a cover, but Lawler kicks out at two.  Sheamus gets Lawler in an armbar, I believe, and holds him there.  Lawler fights to his feet and is met with a knee to this midsection by Sheamus.  Sheamus runs at Lawler, who moves last second and sends Sheamus shoulder first into the turnbuckle.  Morrison comes in off the tag, and starts to get a good momentum, but seems to hurt his already-injured leg and Sheamus tries to take advantage. Morrison hits his flying chuck, and goes to set up Starship Pain, but Riley distracts him.  He gets up to do it again, but Sheamus knocks him down, bouncing his head off the mat.  Miz comes in off the tag from Sheamus and immediately attacks the injured leg of Morrison.  He slams Morrison down on his knee, tagging Sheamus back in.  Sheamus locks himself around Morrison’s leg, applying pressure, before planting his knees into Morrison’s.  Morrison manages to swing Sheamus around, and Sheamus tags in Riley, who prevents Morrison from reaching his teammates.  Riley continues to go after the injured leg, slamming it against the mat.  Riley gets Morrison in the corner and delivers some hard hits.  Riley tries to get Morrison into his corner and finally gets him off the rope to do so.  Riley tags in Miz, who continues on the injured leg.  Miz goes to jump on Morrison’s leg again, but Morrison kicks Miz out of the ring.  Miz runs back in and stops Morrison before he can tag in a teammate.  Miz tags in Sheamus, who goes right back to the injured leg.  Sheamus delivers hard forearms to Morrison’s chest before going to the cover, but Morrison kicks out at two.  Sheamus gets Morrison in a hold using his leg, but Morrison uses his good leg to get out of it.  Sheamus is having none of it, however, and drops his elbow onto Morrison’s spine.  Sheamus mocks Morrison as he reaches for his teammates before dropping Morrison to the mat.

Breaking up that huge wall of text, Sheamus gets Morrison in a half Boston crab, and Morrison tries to drag Sheamus to his corner.  Lawler distracts the ref, and Orton runs in, hitting Sheamus to get him to let go of Morrison.  Sheamus recovers quickly, however, and attacks Morrison.  Sheamus tags in Miz, and Miz misses at stopping Morrison, and Morrison tags in Orton.  Orton this a quick flurry of attacks before hitting the scoop slam.  Then, he pulls Miz into the ring and this the DDT.  He goes for a cover, but Sheamus comes in and breaks up the pin.  Morrison takes Sheamus out over the top rope, and Orton drops to his knees.  Miz has his back to Orton, but Riley comes in, taking the RKO meant for Miz.  Miz puts his boot in Orton’s face, and Orton is tagged by Lawler.  Lawler takes down the strap, and Miz goes for the Skull Crushing Finale, but Orton comes in and hits the RKO, leaving Lawler to pin The Miz.

Randy Orton, John Morrison, and Jerry “The King” Lawler win via pinfall.

And I Quote: “The television show, Smackdown, will be live tomorrow night at 9/8 central here on the USA Network from San Antonio, Texas.  In addition to all the Smackdown superstars, RAW’s contribution will be a handicapped match.  As we heard earlier tonight, it’ll be Dolph Ziggler and Vickie Guerrero vs John Cena.  Also, just added to tomorrow night’s event, the WWE Champion, The Miz, will take on Randy Orton, live on Smackdown.”

Miz comes in and attacks Lawler from behind.  Orton goes to set Miz up for the powerbomb, but Riley interferes and Miz flees again.  Randy flat out calls Miz a son of a bitch, by the way.  I heard it clear just now.

Anywho.  Next Monday, I may not be watching RAW.  My brother, who has been in the Army for the past few months, is going to be here for Christmas, so I may be spending time with him.  I should be able to let you know by Monday.

Don’t forget to vote for the RAW Tweeter of the Year!!! I’ll see you all later!!

The post RAW 12.20.10 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

Match 1:  Santino and Kozlov vs The Uso’s

Santino picks up the win for his team with the Cobra on one of the brothers.  This is good to see, since Santino has been built as a comical jobber throughout the majority of his career in the WWE.  We all know he will continue to be that, but it’s good to see him get a win every once in a while.

Match 2:  Darren Young vs William Regal

I’m glad Young is getting some face time here.  He has talent, but needs to develop his character now that he is out of Nexus.  Regal is in a good spot here with a YOUNGer talent…see what I did there???  Regal gets the win here with the running knee.

Nexus invades Superstars.  Wade Barrett says that if Cena doesn’t help him win the WWE Title at Bragging Rights, then he will be fired.

Main Event:  Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre vs MVP and Chris Masters

I like the pairing of MVP and Masters.  I think they could work out if given the opportunity.  This was a good match with Cody Rhodes getting the win with the Crossroads.

That’s it for this week.  Peace out, Peeps.

The post WWE Superstars Results appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  Chris Jericho has been removed from the WWE title match at Night Of Champions when he lost his match against John Morrison on RAW this week. This after he previously stated that if he didn’t win the WWE title that he would be leaving the WWE. Well the rumor is that his contract is up soon ant that he is taking time off like he did back in 2005. And according to the Fozzy website, they have a UK tour coming up in October.

2.  This leaves me to wonder who WWE will replace him with since the match is still being advertised as a 6 pack challenge.  At first I thought WWE said during the match that if Morrison won that he would get Jericho’s spot, but either I heard them wrong or they changed it after the match for what reason I don’t know.  The only other person they could replace Jericho with would be Mr. Money In The Bank The Miz who would be cashing in his contract to be in the match, which in my opinion would be pretty stupid, he should wait until after the 6 pack challenge or after next month’s Hell In A Cell WWE title match.  I’m probably overanalyzing this since we’ll probably find out that Jericho will probably be put back in the match with his “I leave the WWE if I don’t win the title” stipulation.

3.  Speaking of Money In The Bank, anybody notice that there no contract in the briefcase?

4.  I think that bot the Great Khali and the referee of his “over the top rope challenge” match need some time off for both being retarded. For those who don’t know Edge faced Khali in the match where Edge ran outside  and Khali followed eliminating himself in the process while the referee watched, yet the referee just stood there and did nothing and let the match continue.

5.  Chad Hochocinco I hosting this week’s RAW Roulette.  I should let my mom know, she’s a Bengals fan.

6.  I told you last week that I wasn’t gonna watch NXT season 3 and I didn’t.  From what I read about it, it was just as bad as I thought it was gonna be.

7.  William Regal should not be trying to rap ever again.  For those who don’t know, he tried to do it again on Superstars this week.  The time he did it on RAW it wasn’t that bad but he blew it this time and was horrible.

8.  John Cena’s New movie is in theaters this week and guess what, I haven’t watched a Cena movie and never will.

9.  Uh oh, Chris Masters and Chavo Guerrero messed up and showed up on Smackdown this week.  The even more bizarre thing is that Masters ended up on the winning side instead of on his back like he does on Superstars.

10.  Kaval debuted this week  and had a pretty good showing but WWE had to spit in our face because we picked him instead of who they wanted by having him lose in his Smackdown debut.

11.  I got myself all prepared for not watching iMPACT! this week only to find out that it wasn’t actually on this week.

On that note that’s all I’ve got for now thanks again for reading and see you all next time. I will so a Night Of CHampions roundtable this week if anyone is interested in being a part of it, just send me your picks by 4 pm Sat 9/18.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1. RIP Luna Vachon.

2.  S.E.S. member Serena was released this week for breaking kayfabe and not living the straight edge style of her character on Smackdown.  This is a stupid move on WWE’s part.  WWE needs to realize that the people on TV are characters and they shouldn’t be made to act like that 24/7.  I mean what’s next, the Undertaker being released for not actually bring dead, Alberto Del Rio being released for not being rich, come on  here WWE .

3.  So Wade Barrett finally gets his title shot at the Night Of Champions pay per view. Unfortunately it’s against 5 other guys in a 6 pac challenge.  I don’t like this either, he should have a 1 on 1 shot for the title.  I know WWE isn’t to keen on having a heel vs heel title match, so they should’ve had Barrett wait to cash it in.

4.  I have a feeling that at the end of the 6 pac challenge for the WWE title, a certain Money In The Bank title shot will be cashed in.

5.  The NXT season 2 finale is Tuesday, hope everyone votes.  Hopefully WWE doesn’t screw this one up like I have a feeling that they are.  Depending on how busy I am this week, I may do an “as I see it” audio for the finale.

6.  Hey we had a Goldust and William Regal sightings.  They wrestled on Superstars and Goldust’s face paint wore off.  I surprised the WWE official didn’t stop the match so he could put it back on.

7.  Did Chris Masters fail a pee test or something, he has basically become a jobber on Superstars.

8.  Hornswoggle’s new gimmick as a plant in cammo, I don’t know.  He need to start speaking though, we all know he can or at least try to.

9.  Cody Rhodes shaves his legs, just the most useless piece of information I needed to know.

10.  One final thing, congrats to Monday Night RAW for hitting 900 episodes. Though I may not have see every one I am glad to have been along for the ride this past 17 years.

Well that’s all I’ve got for this week. Thanks again for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

According to the commercial that came on about five minutes before RAW did, Eve has invoked her rematch clause for the Diva’s Championship against Alicia Fox, and tonight, we’ll find out what the mystery General Manager has in store for Nexus.

We start of RAW with Nexus (and Wade Barrett this week) standing in a line in the ring.  Wade says attacking Vince McMahon was just part of a bigger picture.  Sheffield says that they attacked Ricky Steamboat and the Legends just for fun, which wasn’t why they attacked the others.    An email from the GM says that he’s decided on a punishment for Nexus for their attack on Vince: None of the Nexus can compete for a WWE Title until further notice.  Furthermore, the ruling of Nexus members not being able to touch WWE Superstars and vice-versa has been lifted.  Cena comes out, followed by Randy, Truth, Evan, John Morrison, and the Hart Dynasty.  the Superstars are attacked by Sheamus, Uso’s, Ted, Jericho, Miz, and Edge.  Nexus has disappeared.  The faces are left standing in the ring.  Sheamus says that the heels don’t want to help him.  Randy says that he and Cena will never be friends unless they have to, and says that they should finish what they started with the seven heels.  An email from the GM says that if they want action, they’ll get it.  All eight members of the Money in the Bank Ladder Match will be against one another in singles competition.  Cena will face Barrett tonight, but it won’t be a match.  The GM want Cena and Barrett to call a truce.  Cena says that instead of calling a truce, how about he knocks Barrett’s teeth out.  GM says he needs Cena to be the bigger man and he trusts Cena to do the right thing, or else his  actions will be met with the appropriate consequences, and… that’s the bottom line, because the GM said so.

<COMMERCIAL>

John Morrison vs Ted DiBiase with Maryse

Maryse sits ringside and calls Cole out for calling her a gold digger.  I’m actually a little amused by her, especially that she answered the phone during the match, and just insults Cole.  It makes me laugh.  Anyway, she jacks Morrison’s jacket and distracts him so that Ted can get a cheap shot… or four?  DiBiase hits Dream Street for the win.

Ted DiBiase wins by pinfall.

Santino and Vladimir Kozlov make their way to the ring (“Italia and Russia together again! Like World War 2! Except this time, no Nazis.” – Santino Marealla), and later, John Cena and Wade Barrett are supposed to call a truce… yeah right.

<COMMERCIAL>

Slam of the Week: Vladimir Kozlov defeats Santino Marella and then beats up William Regal after Regal attacks Santino.

Santino Marella and Vladimir Kozlov vs William Regal and The Great Khali

Regal calls them oxygen thieves before the match even starts and makes me laugh.  Regal calls Khali a monster, which makes me roll my eyes… At any rate, Kozlov demolishes Regal, then tags Santino in, almost getting in trouble, Santino gets demolished by Regal, and Kozlov pins Regal.

Vladimir Kozlov and Santino Marella win via pinfall.

After the match, Khali climbs in the ring, and tells Santino and Vladimir to stand Regal up, and just knocks him in the head.  Khali and Santino, and Ranjin, dance, and Vladimir wonders where his days of glory went off to.

Later on tonight, Edge brings Chris Jericho and Evan Bourne to The Cutting Edge, as well as information on Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat and the other Legends after last week’s assault.

<COMMERCIAL>

Arn Anderson says that Ricky’s attack was serious.  Sheamus shows up and mocks Anderson, essentially, calling him a pathetic old man.  Anderson says that they have to get out of the way of their egos and work on Nexus, or the company, and their careers, are going to go up in flames.

<COMMERCIAL>

United States Champion The Miz vs R-Truth

Miz come sout to Truth’s theme and is rapping, which made me die… It was hilarious.  Before the match even starts, he starts beating on Truth, while I’m still laughing my ass off…  Anyway, Miz just goes off on Truth’s arm.  The bell never officially rang, but for my ego’s sake…

The United States Champion The Miz wins… by ass-kicking.

<COMMERCIAL>

The Cutting Edge: Money In the Bank Pay-Per-View Edition

Edge makes his way to the ring, set up with ladders, and the Money in the Bank briefcase.  He says that he’s smarter than Randy and everyone else there.  Why make seven enemies, when he can make seven powerful allies?  They just need leadership, which he can provide.  He goes to call out Evan Bourne, but Jericho comes out instead.

Jericho says he doesn’t take a back seat to anyone, and that Edge is shamelessly pandering to Nexus.  He was Wade Barrett’s pro, and that helped him win the season.  Chris told Barrett to make an impact, do something never done before.   Edge rubs the loss to Evan Bourne in, and Jericho rubs Edge’s loss at Wrestlemania in.   Edge starts to give Jericho a history lesson, but Edge just wants to be Jericho, according to Jericho.  Edge gets sick of Jericho and attacks him.  Jericho attacks back and puts Edge in the walls of Jericho, but Evan comes out and hits Jericho.  Then, he jumps over a Spear, ducks under both of them, and flips right out of hte ring.  Then the GM sends an email.

The GM says if the audience want to see some action, give him a HELL YEAH.  So, they’re clearing the ring of The Cutting Edge stuff, and the following is going to take place.

<COMMERCIAL>

Edge and Chris Jericho vs Evan Bourne and Randy Orton

Starts off with Orton and Bourne getting some really good momentum, and then Jericho turns it around right before the commercial break.  When we come back, Edge still has the momentum over Bourne, mostly thanks to Jericho beating Bourne during the break.  Randy almost had Jericho set up for the RKO, but Edge interfered and Jericho manage to hit the insigari.  Bourne gets tagged in, and Jericho starts to yell and berate Edge, so Edge spears him.  Bourne hits the Air Bourne for the win.

Randy Orton and Evan Bourne win via pinfall.

Afterward, Randy hits an RKO on Evan, and smirks toward the ramp.

<COMMERCIAL>

Randy walks backstage, and Nexus stops him.  Otunga says that nothing was against Randy, but the WWE Championship match at Fatal 4Way was just to make a statement.  They’re trying to apologize, and they won’t interfere in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match, but they can’t promise anything for the steel cage match.  Otunga says he wants Randy to think about hit next time Cena tries to recruit him.  Randy says he’s heard what they have to say, now get out of his face.

During the previous commercial break, the GM emailed and said that the Hart Dynasty would defend their Unified Tag Team Championships against The Uso’s.  The Uso’s and Tamina tell Josh Matthews that this is the opportunity of the lifetime.  They say they’ll be the new Tag Team Champions, and next week, everyone will know what the Uso’s and Tamina are all about.  Alicia seems upset that she hasn’t been interviewed once since she became the Diva’s Champion.  She asks if it’s because she’s not important, or because he doesn’t care what she has to say, and the WWE Universe says that, yeah, she’s pretty much right.  Anyway, next is the Diva’s Championship match.

<COMMERCIAL>

Diva’s Champion Alicia Fox vs Eve Torres for the Diva’s Championship

Pretty standard Diva’s match, with Alicia faking an ankle injury to get Eve off guard to retain.

Diva’s Champion Alicia Fox retains via pinfall.

<COMMERCIAL>

The GM says that next week, Edge and Randy Orton will go one on one.

Wade Barrett makes his way to the ring as we get back from the commercial break.  Wade says that he wants Cena to come out so they can shake hands like men.

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR RUBBER FOOD!!!!

Cena comes out and starts checking for Nexus.  He gets in the ring, still looking for Nexus.  Wade says that Cena is not in Nexus’ future plans, regardless of what they’ve done.  Barrett wants to put everything in the past behind them so that they can move on.  The simple fact is that the Nexus Seven are going to be there for a long time and can make his life easy, or a lot harder than it has been.  The choice is Cena’s.

Cena asks, if they shake hands, it stops?  No more looking over his shoulder?  Cena says that the anonymous GM wanted to do this truce, but Cena needs to know if Barrett does, and he needs Barrett’s word.  If they shake hands, this stops.   Cena holds his hand out, and Barrett goes to shake it, but Cena pulls his hand away and asks why stop when they’re having so much fun?!  Cena says take your truces, handshakes, future plans, blah blah blah, crumple them, and stuff them up your Nexus.  The future is that Cena takes down Nexus, whether he does it himself, has help, he gets to every single one of them.

Barrett says that the fact that Cena is even capable of standing in the ring is a testament to, basically, how it isn’t about him.  Barrett is warning Cena: Shake his hand, or Cena will face some very, very severe consequences.  Cena grabs his hand, then starts to get him in an Attitude Adjustment.  The Nexus Seven come out, but then dso does Evan Bourne, John Morrison, Mark Henry, Khali, Goldust, Kozlov, Santino, the Hart Dynasty, Yoshi Tatsu… and I think that was all…  it got hard to tell.  Sorry.  Basically, Nexus is then shoved out of the ring, except Darren Young, who got bitch slapped by Mark Henry.

The GM sends an email: I wanted peace, so if things don’t stop now, there will be consequences.  Cena puts Young in the STF.  The GM sends another email: Cena, because of your actions, you will now face all members of the Nexus next week in a seven-on-one handicapped match.  Cena then begins hammering away on Darren Young again.  Cena then throws the “steel” ring steps at Darren Young’s head, throws Young over the announce table, and then shoves the announce table over on Young.

Next week, I guess we’ll see more of the Nexus.  Until then, seeya around.

1.  I was gonna ask about why Ashton Kutcher’s segments looked different from the rest of the backstage segment’s only to find out that HE WASN’T AT RAW and his segments were filmed at his home in Los Angeles.  So wait, now guest hosts don’t even have to show up, just great.  As much of a douche I think he is, he should’ve been there live, no excuses.

2. RIP Rue McClanahan.

3.  The Uso’s speak.  I liked them when they were called Cryme Tyme.  Though I do like their high flying maneuvers.

4.  Evan Bourne gets a big main event win on RAW by pinning Sheamus.  Not a big shocker you say, I know it really isn’t but wait there’s more.  In case you didn’t watch RAW, The main event was a tag team match featuring Bourne & John Cena vs Edge & Sheamus, and Cena stepped aside and let Bourne hit his Shooting Star Press (I get chills every time I see it still) to get the win.  Could we see a possible replacement in the WWE title match if Randy Orton isn’t ready  at the Fatal Four Way ppv?  I hope so.

5. Speaking of Randy Orton, he is going to need surgery on his shoulder, so if he does make it to Fatal Four Way, don’t expect him to win.

6.  Daniel Bryan beat The Miz and then threw Miz into Michael Cole, awesome! The only thing now is where does this go from here.

7.  SANTINO WINS!!!!!!!  SANTINO WINS!!!!!!!!!  Granted He had help form Koslov, but does this mean we will finally get the awesome Koslov/Santino tag team?

8.  Three Hour Viewers Choice RAW?  Good idea, no seriously I like this even thought I haven’t voted on it yet, but if I do I do and If I don’t I don’t.  So I can’t bitch next week.

9.  Congratulations again to Wade Barret for winning season 1 of NXT.  If you want to know my thoughts of the program, just scroll down a bit because I did an audio on it.

10.  Anyone seen Shad Gaspard lately, did you fail a pee test?

11.  I thought John Morrison failed a pee test too but it turns out that he has an ankle injury which is why he hasn’t been on tv in a few weeks and is probably why he ia a pro for NXT season 2.

12.  For those who don’t know Undertaker wasn’t found in a comatose state, (though I do like the storyline) he was reinjured in his match last week by Rey Mysterio and suffered a concussion, broken nose and a broken orbital bone.  So what does WWE do, give his spot to in the world title match to Rey Mysterio, the guy who caused the injuries.  Way to go WWE, give the injurer the spot of the injured.

13.  I don’t see why Smackdown built the whole show around Kane avenging Undertaker state and then give the spot to someone who DIDN”T DESERVE IT.

14.  We had a Finlay sighting this week, so much for being retired from in ring action, though it probably was because they needed guys due to the injury bug that has been going around.

15.  Still like Curt Hawkins & Vance Archer, I think the will be offered an “official contract” next week since their “30 day contract” is up.

16.  One final thing, Jobbo Guerrero didn’t lose this week, though he was on the winning side of a handicap match over Christian, he didn’t get the pin, his partner Dolph Ziggler did.  So in my book not an official win for Jobbo.

Well I guess that’s all for now Thank you all for reading and I’ll see you all next time.

Oh yeah, I’m gonna do a Roundtable for the Fatal Four Way PPV, so if you want in send me your picks between Monday June 14 and 5 pm Eastern Saturday June 19.

1.  Congratulations to the Duke Blue Devils Men’s basketball team for winning the NCAA Mens Basketball Championship and ending Butler’s cinderella run to the title.

2.  Congratulations are also in due the UConn Huskies Women’s basketball for winning the NCAA Womens Basketball Champonship and winning their 175th consecutive game in the process.

3.  I went out and bought some CD’s this week that I recommend to you.  They are all solo albums from guitar greats Slash, Bruce Kulick and Ace Frehley.

• Slash’s simply called Slash contains guest appearances by Ozzy Osbuorne, Ian Astbury of The Cult, Kid Rock, Chris Cornell, Iggy Pop, Lemmy form Motorhead, Dave Grohl and Fergie (who knew she could rock. She should leave them and become a rocker).  The album rocks, just don’t expect a Guns N’Roses or Velvet Revolver CD because this isn’t.
• Bruce Kulick’s is called BK3 and features guest appearances by Gene Simmons & Eric Singer from Kiss, John Corabi formerly of Motley Crue and that’s about it.  Kulick signs on most of the songs himself and has a pretty good voice and the CD is great so go but it.
• Ace Frehley’s is called Anomaly and doesn’t have any guest appearances, but that is ok not everyone has to.  Now I haven’t heard this one in whole yet, what I have heard is quite good.  Plus the CD case folds into a pyramid which is cool too.

4.  Dirty Speaker check them out and become a fan, they are awesome.

5.  David Otunga claims to spend $295 on his haircuts, well after seeing that botch job of the RAW logo, I think you got ripped off there buddy.

6.  So, it’ll be a Last man standing match at Extreme Rules for the WWE title between John Cena and Batista, my guess is that neither man will be.

7.  You know  iMPACT! is in trouble when they have a match where one of the victor’s wins a spider.  Yikes.

8. Speaking of iMPACT!, they are back to replaying it on Thursday nights, so join us on our forums for out weekly discussion of it.

9.  This week’s episode of NXT is precisely why I don’t like it.  If I wanted to watch guys run around the ring carrying full kegs of beer, I would watch the world’s strongest man competition.  Plus, Michael Cole is even worse when he try’s to be a heel, just bad.

10.  Poor Zack Ryder, he was infinite levels of awesome on ECW and is now reduced to jobber duty while tagging wit Jobbo Guerrero.

11.  Speaking of Jobbo, does he even realize that he can’t do Eddie’s “Three Amigo’s” move or is he just doing it bad on purpose.  I know your paying tribute to him, but come on your not him stop doing it.

12.  Could John Morrison possibly making a move up to main event status finally?  Well I think he made his case in his match this week against World Heavyweight Champion Jack Swagger this week.

13.  Methinks that CM Punk isn’t getting his head shaved, unless they change the match Before Extreme Rules, Punk’s long hair will stay.

14.  Cryme Tyme breakup feud begins, one of them goes over, the other (if not both) disappears.

15.  I’m totally not surprised that there was not winner in the #1 contenders match between Edge and Chris Jericho.  They both should be in the World Title match at Extreme Rules even if it is for one of them to job to Swagger.

Alright folks that’s it.  Thanks again for reading and see you all next time.

p.s. There may or may not be a Random Randomness next week.  Just giving you a heads up.

The post WWE RAW Results 2/22/10 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

This was started before tonight’s ep of Raw.

US/Unified Tag Team Title Match
The Miz & The Big Show vs MVP & Mark Henry
Tornado Tag Team Match

After winning the tag titles on tonight’s show, Miz defends the US title against MVP only to have Big Show interfere. Henry makes the save and we get a tag match booked. But MVP wants another shot at the US title too. The rules of this match are that whoever gets the first pin wins the US title and the tag belts for their team. MVP hits the Mafia kick on Miz but Show chokeslams him. Henry knocks Show out of the ring and Miz is able to drape an arm over MVP for the win.

Winner and still US/Unified Tag Team Champions: The Miz & The Big Show.

ECW Title Match
Christian w/Edge vs Ezekial Jackson w/William Regal

To become the last ECW champion ever. Prior to the match they show Christian staring at the belt. Edge comes up to him and talks about how it must suck to be champ and just have the belt taken out from under you. Christian says it does. But he will be the last ECW champ. He then asks Edge to be in his corner and Edge agrees.

The finish from the Rumble is teased but Zeke manages to power out of that Killswitch as he has all the other attempts. Finally Regal interferes. Christian is going to the top rope against standing but dazed Ezekial. Regal gets on the apron and the ref tells him to get down. Edge slips in and hits the spear on Jackson. Christian hits a diving headbutt then delivers the Killswitch for the win.

Winner and Final ECW champion: Christian

Edge raises Christian’s hand and they hug in the ring

WWE Title Match
Elimination Chamber
Sheamus vs John Cena vs Triple H vs Randy Orton vs Ted Dibiase vs Kofi Kingston

Orton and Hunter start off. Trips is has just delivered the DOuble A Spinebuster when Dibiase comes out and hits him from behind, then delivers Dream Street. The two members of Legacy function as a tag team, but can’t get a pin. Kofi comes out next and they work on him, dividing their attentions so whenever one of the faces starts a comeback they can cut it off. Orton is just about to deliver a punt to Kofi when Ted decides this has gone on long enough. He rolls up Orton but only gets two. Orton gets up and gets in his face. Kofi gets up and hit Trouble in Paradise on Orton for the first elimination. Cena comes in next. He fights Hunter while Dibiase and Kofi recover more. Kofi tries Trouble in Paradise on Dibaise, but he ducks and delivers Dream Street for the pin. Cena sets up an Attitude Adjustment on Triple H but Ted hits him from behind knocking him to the mat face first with Hunter on his back. Ted tries to put the Million Dollar Dream on Trips, but he arm drags out, then when Ted charges he kicks him in the gut and Pedigrees him for the elimination. Hunter then tries to Predigree Cena but Sheamus is out. He pumpkicks him after the double underhook. That sends Hunter down and cause Cena to be butterfly suplexed. Sheamus hits another Pump Kick and then the Irish Curse(Razor’s Edge) for the pin. Cena and Sheamus go back and forth on the area around the ring. Sheamus goes for the Irish Curse on the metal. Cena slips out and Attitude Adjusment’s him back into the ring.

Winner and New WWE Champion: John Cena

The Abraham Washington Show
Special Guest: Vince McMahon

This is about NXT and the future of the ECW superstars. Vince explains that all ECW guys will become free agents who may sign whereever they like. (That includes NXT so guys like Croft, Baretta and Tatsu can stay. Maybe even Ryder as a veteran bully.)

Divas Title Tournament Final
Maryse vs Gail Kim

Yeah, they delay it this long. The finish comes when Gail comes off the top rope with a crossbody. Maryse rolls through, catches her feet, pulls Gail up with her and delivers the snap DDT.

Winner and new Divas Champion: Maryse

No. 1 Contendership
Shawn Michaels vs Batista

To set up this matchVince gets in Shawn’s face talking about how he’s the cause of all of Vince’s problems with Bret. He talks about Shawn’s ego but he does admit that Shawn’s match with Undertaker amazing. So he tells Shawn he’ll have another chance at getting in the ring with the Undertaker. And if that falls through he might be able to steal the show with Triple H, John Cena, Chris Jericho or Randy Orton. He makes a match between him and Batista to become number 1 contender for the title Edge doesn’t choose.

Shawn goes for the Superkick on Batista but his foot is caught. He’s spun around and Batista spinebusters him. Batista Bomb is set up but Shawn rolls over the top and tries a sunset flip. Batista reaches down, pulls him up and hits another spinebuster. The Batista Bomb seals the deal.

Winner and No. 1 contender: Batista

They then run a package about Smackdown’s Elimination Chamber. When it ends Shawn is still in the ring. The refs tell him he has to leave. So he exits the ring, grabs a chair from ringside and sits near the entrance to watch the match.

World Title Match
Elimination Chamber
Undertaker vs John Morrison vs CM Punk vs Rey Mysterio vs R-Truth vs Chris Jericho

Undertaker, Rey, Truth and Jericho come out and get into their pods. Punk is in the ring. Morrison comes out, then someone wearing a Rey Mysterio mask jumps out of the crowd. He jumps Morrison and slams him into the Chamber and beats him down. Shawn gets up, holding his back but he starts to approach the ring. But Morrison waves off officials and starts the match. He’s dominated quickly but briefly makes a comeback. He tries the flying chuck outside on the metal. Punk sidesteps and rams him into the Chamber and pins him just before Rey comes out. They go back and forth. RTruth is next. Nothing much happens. Then Jericho comes out. Punk sets up the GTS on Rey, Rey climbs down his back and rolls him up for three. Punk is stunned. Then he grabs Rey and GTS’s him before leaving the ring. Shawn leans forward in his seat as Jericho dives on top. When Undertaker comes in Jericho and Truth actually put aside their differences to double team him. Taker fights them off and Tombstones Truth to eliminate him. Taker chokeslams Jericho. But as he does it Jericho blatently and obviously intentionally kicks the ref so he can’t make a count. Outside the refs are opening the Chamber to allow a new ref in. As they’re about to close it Shawn charges to ringside, throws them out of the way and dives in. Undertaker is suprised, and Shawn hits Sweet Chin music on him. Jericho recovers enough to hit a Lionsault and get the pin.

Winner and New World Champion: Chris Jericho

By the way the guy who jumps Morrison is the rumored to be returning Joey Mercury.

The post Booking WWE Elimination Chamber appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  WWE Championship Match-  Sheamus (c) vs. Randy Orton:

RYTMAN-  Randy Orton wins the WWE title.

ThinkSoJoE-  Orton. I’m picking Orton for the sheer fact of who I’m picking for the Rumble win…

Tharvey1-  Shaemus gets the win over Orton. While they are not giving Shaemus enough exposure on RAW, they will keep the strap on him here and set up the inevitable HHH/Shaemus title match at Mania.

JT-  I’m gonna go with Sheamus here.  There is no point in having a title change in a heel vs. a heel title match.

2.  ECW Championship Match- Christian (c) vs Ezekiel Jackson:

RYTMAN-  (said he’d get back to me but didn’t)

ThinkSoJoE-  Jackson pinned Christian on SmackDown – that means Christian will probably win this Sunday.

Tharvey1-  Ezekiel Jackson over Christian here. I think it’s time that Captain Charisma drop the ECW belt and move on. He has done all he can for ECW and Big Zeke is believable as the Champ.

JT- Tharvey1 took the words right out of my mouth, it’s time for Christian to drop the title.  I’m going with Ezekiel Jackson to win here.

3.  Women’s Championship Match- Michelle McCool (c) vs. Mickie James:

RYTMAN-  Mickey James beats Michelle McCool for the Women’s title in some kind of “cover your opponent in slop mach.”  Also, Maryse beats Gail for the Divas title (which will suck. )

ThinkSoJoE-  After the whole “Piggy James” thing, Mickie better win – otherwise the whole thing comes off as pointless.

Tharvey1-  Mickie James defeats Michelle McCool. I think its set up for Mickie to win the title here. She has endured Lay-Cool’s harassment and will punish them at the Rumble. I think we might see Beth Phoenix interfere on behalf of Mickie James.

JT-  And I will make this one unanimous and pick Mickie James here.

4.  World Heavyweight Championship Match- Undertaker (c) vs. Rey Mysterio:

RYTMAN-  Mysterio beats Taker for the title (w/interference from Batista AND HBK.)

ThinkSoJoE-  Is there any doubt about it? The Undertaker is going to win.

Tharvey1-  Undertaker…nuff said

JT-  Undertaker with help from HBK.

5.  The 30 man over the top rope Royal Rumble Match-

RYTMAN-  Jericho wins the Rumble.

ThinkSoJoE-  There has been an awful lot of emphasis put on how many top stars there are in this year’s Royal Rumble. Triple H. John Cena. Shawn Michaels. Batista. Chris Jericho. CM Punk. The Big Show. Kane. The Great Khali. These are all names that have been announced for the Royal Rumble who have won either the WWE Championship or the World Heavyweight Championship. This is why my pick to win this year’s Royal Rumble is… Ted DiBiase. Legacy are on the verge of breaking up. DiBiase and Rhodes were in the final four last year, only being eliminated as they sacrificed themselves for Randy Orton. With Orton not being in the Rumble this year, what’s to stop Legacy from dominating the Rumble again, and having it come down to just the two of them?

Tharvey1-  Shawn Michaels to set up Taker/HBK II at Wrestlemania. Chris Masters would be a pleasant surprise, but I don’t expect that to happen.

JT-  I want Kofi Kingston to win, but I know that’s not gonna happen so lets see here.  Anybody notice that when Cena beat Sheamus by DQ in his rematch, he hasn’t tried to get another? Yeah, I know that he lost in the triple threat, but you’d think that by now he would’ve tried to get another 1 on 1 title match, so my pick sadly is going to John Cena.  It makes more sense to have Cena face Sheamus at Wrestlemania that HHH face Sheamus.  Just my opinion.

Wow som very interesting picks for this years Royal Rumble.  Who will be right?  Who will be wrong?  We will all find out tomorrow.  Thanks again for joining us for thins edition of the BWF Roundtable and goodnight everyone.

The post BWF Roundtable: The 2010 Royal Rumble appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  RIP my HP Pavilion computer 2004-2010.  On Monday it finally died.  I had a feeling that it was on it’s way out and was hoping to get another year out of it but you can’t win them all. The replacement, a Mac!

2.  F*@% Jay Leno and NBC!  Yes I know NBC is the company that owns the USA Network where RAW and a lot of my other favorite shows air, but what you guys did to Conan O’Brien is just wrong.

3.  Today’s colors are purple and green.

4.  Mike Tyson wasn’t very good as a host for RAW, not the worst by far, but not that great either.  I knew from the second he mad the tag team match be tween him & Jericho vs. DX that he was gonna turn on Jericho.  This is WWE saying to TNA “Hey look we can do 1997 too!”  RAW overall wasn’t bad though.

5.  Randy Orton is the #1 Contender again for the WWE title and is facing Sheamus at the Royal Rumble.  He was going to be my pick to win the Rumble again but now that’s gonna change.  I like this idea though I fully expect to see this end up being a triple threat but Rumble time.

6.  Santino WINS!!!!  Santino WINS!!!!  Against Jack Swagger.  What’s up with Santino’s new look though?

7.  The Miz is awesome, that is all.  MVP isn’t shabby either.

8.  Ezekial Jackson is the #1 contender for the ECW title.  No complaints here.  The Royal Rumble ppv is more about the rumble match anyway.

9.  Why is it that when Yoshi Tatsu wrestles Goldust is right there in his corner, but when Goldust wrestles, Yoshi is nowhere to be found.

10.  Team awesomeness (Slam Master J and Jimmy Wang Yang) won their first match as a tag team this week!  Wait a minute Jimmy Wang Yang and Santino Marella won matches in the same week??  The end is near people.

11.  Why push Mike Knox as a smart tough guy only to have him lose week in and week out?

12.  Well it looks like Jobbo Chavo is back to doing the job even on Superstars.  Ah well you suck anyways.

13.  I watched iMPACT! this week and have to say that I wan’t too impressed for what I saw.  Where was everybody that showed up last week?

14.  Good to see Angelina Love back.  I wonder who she’s gonna have on here side to feud with The Beautiful People.

15.  I actually like the idea of a Sean Morley/ Christopher Daniels feud.

16.  Hogan says that a young WWE star will debut tonight at the ppv.  Rumors are saying that it’s either Ken Kennedy (KENNEDY!) or RVD or Brian Kendrick.  My guess is that it will be none of them and will surprise us all.

17.  So CM Punk and Luke Gallows are the next in line to fall to DX in a tag team title feud.  Let’s just hop I’m wrong on that one.

18.  Nice shiner sported by Jericho this pat week on Smackdown.  He sold Tyson punching him well, but then again he is the best at what he does.

19.  Finally after weeks and weeks of matches, Rey Mysterio is the #1 contender to the World Title and will face Undertaker at the Rumble.  I don’t have a problem with this and am glad WWE is not giving the triple threat we all thought was gonna happen.

Well thats all I’ve got for this week, thank you all for reading and see you next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

The song is called “Burn It To The Ground.”  Why give Tyson’s crazy ass any ideas?

Mike Tyson is here.  He says it’s great to be back on Monday Night RAW.  Last time he was here, it was a memorable experience.

Video: “Stone Cold” Steve Austin shoves Mike Tyson

The fans are chanting “you still suck.”  Tyson says it’s nice to be here.  He’s interrupted by the music of the WWE Champion, Sheamus.  The Whitest Man on the Planet makes his way to the ring where the Baddest Man on the Planet is standing.  Time for an epic promo, I’d guess.  Sheamus wonders if he heard right when Tyson was one of the most iconic sports figures of the 20th Century.  Tyson says it’s a matter of opinion.  Sheamus calls him a washed up ex-champion.  Sheamus is the WWE Champion, and that makes him the Baddest Man on the Planet.  Tyson shoves him.  Sheamus dares him to do it again.

I hear voices in my head…

Randy Orton heads down to the ring.  He says he’s not interested in creating a SportsCenter moment, he’s interested in the WWE title.  Sheamus doesn’t have an opponent at the Royal Rumble, and Orton thinks he should be named number one contender, and he thinks Tyson should do it soon.

Shabadoo!

The former WWE Champion, John Cena joins the party.  Tyson bobs his head to Cena’s music, and Mr. Orange Soda says he came to see Mike Tyson.  He’s here for the WWE Championship.  Sheamus tells Cena again that he won’t get a title shot at the Royal Rumble.  Cena makes fun of his accent, then points out that the last time they wrestled, Sheamus lost.  As a matter of fact, Cena’s beaten everybody here, including Mike Tyson.  It took all of his youth, and he had to beat up Glass Joe, King Hippo, Piston Honda (twice), then Super Macho Man, and then it took two years, but he beat Mike Tyson.  If anybody deserves a shot at the WWE Championship, you’re looking at him.

S.O.S I hear them crying

Kofi Kingston arrives.  Orton says he beat Kingston last week, so he’s not a part of this discussion.  Kingston says he’s right, but Cena and Orton have both been WWE Champion, while Kofi hasn’t even had a shot.  He’s not going to sit around and wait for his opportunity (the crowd starts chanting “Cena Sucks,” followed by “Randy”).  Kingston says he wants a shot and won’t take no for an answer.  Sheamus says he’s got a simple way to solve this.  Sheamus says Tyson had months between title defenses, and since he’s a better champion than Tyson anyway, he wants the Rumble off.  As for the other three guys, they need to go to the Rumble and earn it, like everybody else.  Tyson says he never ducked a fight, and if the three guys in the ring want a shot, they’ve got a Triple Threat Shot, and the winner will face Sheamus for the WWE Championship at The Royal Rumble.  Cena name drops some other characters from Mike Tyson’s Punch-Out, and we’ve got ourselves a match for tonight.

Later: Will there be retribution for Mr. McMahon’s actions last week?

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@NiKiharu BURN IT TO THE GROUND TONIGHT! .. can I burn it with Mike ‘Ear Nibbler’ Tyson in the building?

@leecarter77 Disappointed they didn’t use Phil Collins’ “In the Air Tonight” for Tyson’s theme music. #wwe #raw #BWF

@SABOTAGEcirca84 My God…u gotta love Mike Tyson’s lisp. Sounds like “the most dangerous homosexual on the planet”, but I wouldnt tell Iron Mike that.

It’s time for another match in the WWE Diva’s Championship tournament.  Up first, it’s time for Scrawny Bitch Theater on USA.  Kelly Kelly “looks like a roller derby reject,” according to PaintFingers, and she’s taking on another scrawny bitch who used to waste 10 minutes of the 60 minute ECW program by dancing, Alicia Fox.

Alicia Fox def. Kelly Kelly

I think I actually heard an old school “She’s A Crack-Whore” chant break out before Fox powerbombed Kelly for the victory.

Still to come: John Cena vs. Kofi Kingston vs. Randy Orton in a triple threat match.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@wwffan7385 Kelly vs Alicia in the Divas Tournament Quarterfinal now. No talent at all in the ring!

@mickie_jamesfan why in the hell does alicia fox need all that hair someone give that girl a voucher for a free cut and emergency straighten

@SMARKRAGE: Alicia fox’s weave actually won the match #bwf #wwe

@Graelam Kelly Kelly, so blonde she has to say her name twice to remember it… Just Sayin’ #BWF

Last week: John Cena did somethingorother.  It had to do with football.

It’s a new day…

A favorite of our followers on Twitter, Legacy, make their way to the ring.  They take microphones, and they remind us that they, along with Randy Orton were three of the last four guys in the ring at the Royal Rumble.  DiBiase says it’s his turn this year.  He plugs The Marine 2 as being superior to the original Marine in every way, and Rhodes says his 5th grade graduation video is superior to the original Marine.  Ted says his point is that he’s going to win the Royal Rumble.  They’re interrupted by Mark Henry’s music, and apparently he’s teaming with Evan Bourne tonight.  Wonder what MVP thinks of that.

Legacy vs. Mark Henry and Evan Bourne

Michael Cole makes himself useful and reminds us that there’s a bit of history to this match – Rhodes beat Henry and DiBiase beat Bourne a couple of weeks ago.  Legacy picked up the win in this one when Rhodes pinned Bourne after the CrossRhodes.

DX is backstage wearing DX football jerseys.  Triple H asks HBK if he really wants to do this – Bret Hart was one thing, but Mike Tyson?  HBK says he wants to make peace with Mike Tyson.  Triple H says that Mike Tyson is insane.  He’s certifiable.  He’s the man that Knocked HBK out for four years.  HBK says he saw the documentary, he thinks Tyson’s a changed man.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@Brookiasi Wow…nice PINK tie Cena. Did Randy pick that out for you?

@TheMelBrand THIS CANT HAPPEN! YOU CANNOT SPLIT LEGACY!

@dasharpshooters: I can just picture Dusty and Sapphire going crazy for Cody at his 5th grade graduation lol #wwe #raw #bwf

@shyguy_2004 I’m trying to figure out if Mark Henry caused that earthquake we just had here. lol. #wwe #raw

@cmpg Guest Host Next Week is HBK’s receding hair line so that HBK can make amends with it too. #WWE #RAW #BWF

HBK is backstage with Mike Tyson, and he’s trying to get closure with Mike Tyson.  HBK forgives Tyson for knocking him out at WrestleMania 14.  Tyson says he enjoyed that and didn’t regret it.  He’d love to do it again.  Jericho enters the room and tells HBK that Tyson doesn’t like him.  HBK reminds Jericho that he was banned from RAW twice.  Jericho says he talked to Tyson and they became friends.  Tonight, DX will be in action, and if DX loses, Jericho can stay on whatever show he wants for as long as he wants.  Tyson says it’s DX against Chris Jericho and Mike Tyson.  Great.  A boxer wrestling.  Fun.  HBK says he still owes Tyson one.

Michael Cole is overly excited about this news.  Almost as excited as he was last week.

Last week: Bret Hart returned to the WWE and got kicked in the balls by Vince McMahon.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@ladyravnos316 #WWE #raw dx vs tyson&Jericho : who else smells a freaking setup??!!!

@VanityMayhem Why do i have they feeling. Mike is going to punch Chris and help DX?

@KRUZ8ER Jericho = ratings

Jack Swagger is here and has a newsflash – he’s going to win the Royal Rumble and go on the WrestleMania.  He repeats himself.  The Rumble is tailor made for somebody like Swagger.  He’s never been in a Rumble because he was defending his ECW Championship at this time last year.  Nobody on any show can eliminate him, and he’ll put his money where his mouth is.  He’s issuing an All-American American American American challenge (that’s seriously what he said).  If anybody can toss him over the top rope, they can come out and try.  The King tells Cole to give it a try, but Santino comes out.  He says it’s embarrassing, because he was going to issue the All Italian Italian challenge to see if somebody could throw him over the top rope.  He’s got an idea, he’ll drop Swagger like a bicycle with no kickstand.

Santino vs. Jack Swagger

Santino picks up the win, pulling Swagger over the top rope.

Later: Chris Jericho and Mike Tyson take on DX

NEXT!: Triple Threat action with WWE Championship implications!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@AlyKat_730 … Okay… There’s an hour (over an hour) left… if Miz is not here… I’m going to eat someone’s ear worse than Tyson could ever think.

@BrokenIntntionZ Jack Sylvester Swagger

@marciana86 SANTINO RULES ALL YOUR ASSES. THUCK IT, THWAGGER!

Randy Orton is out first for this Triple Threat match.  The winner gets a shot at Sheamus’ WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble.  Kofi Kingston is out next, followed by Cena, who is being universally hated on by the fans tonight.

Randy Orton def. Kofi Kingston and John Cena in a Triple Threat match

Kingston and Cena work over Orton, and after Kingston dumps Orton out of the ring, Cena and Kingston look to lock up, but notice the WWE Champion Sheamus standing at the top of the ramp, a distraction that allows Orton to get the upper-hand.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

@BradMilner If Cena doesn’t win or at least isn’t pinned does that end his vow to not lose till winnning the title? #WWE

@HardyacArrestV1 I would rather see this match the main event then bloody DX vs Jericho & Tyson.

@JermaineTaylor If Randy Orton win this match, I’ll ve happier than a Crackhead gettin’ they first hit lol.

@elimcfly88 Kofi Johnson and John Chena in the ring for a shot at the triple threat who wins and gets a world title championship match!

During the break, Cena was dropped face first onto the announce table.  Meanwhile, Orton has Kingston in the chinlock of doom.  Cena tries to get back in but is dropped by Orton’s elevated DDT.  Kingston hits a cross body off the top rope for a two count on Orton.  Orton hits the back/neckbreaker on Kingston and Cena hits a bulldog on Orton.  Kingston hits the SOS on Orton for two.  He goes for the Boom Drop, but Cena hits a drop toehold and puts Kingston in the STF.  Orton breaks up the hold.  Cena his a pair of shoulderblocks and a Protobomb on Orton and follows it up with the 5 Knuckle Shuffle.  He goes for the Attitude Adjustment on Orton, but Kingston saves Orton and goes off on Cena.  He hits the Boom Drop on Cena, followed by the Trouble in Paradise, knocking Cena out of the ring.  Cody Rhodes attacks Cena on the outside, then distracts the referee.  Ted DiBiase comes in and attacks Kingston.  Orton hits the RKO and picks up the victory!

Josh Matthews is a tool, and he’s with Mike Tyson.  Hornswoggle interrupts.  Tyson says he’ll tear Hornswoggle’s intestines out and jumprope with them if he sees him during his match tonight.

@robbyfischer #bwf How is Kofi hanging on? A blown submission couldn’t make anyone tap out.

@jacob_burman Mike Tyson going to tear up little Horny HAHAHAHA. WWE is having fun tonight. Go Tyson!!!!

@secretagentg Orton equals hotness…Dibiase equals hotness…Rhodes…well two out of three ain’t bad

@DelicateKTheory Hooked on Phonics didn’t work for Mike Tyson.

Last Week: MVP won the right to face The Miz.

The Miz is backstage.  He says nobody respected him when he first came to the WWE.  Everybody wanted to get rid of him, nobody could stand him.  They made his life a living hell.  In fact, he got kicked out of the locker room for spilling some chicken on accident into a referee’s bag.  He’d have to find a place to change, a place to shower, a place to use the restroom.  JBL used to mock him, everybody wanted him to quit, but all that negativity, Miz used as fuel to become the star he is today.  He has his own locker room now.  That other locker room is for the Evan Bournes and MVPs.  The same MVP that is the number one contender for the United States Championship.  MVP will join the list of people to be publicly humiliated by The Miz.  MVP doesn’t even deserve to be in the same ring as The Miz.  If it were up to The Miz, MVP would still be in jail.  Miz doesn’t believe in second chances because he’s been perfect his whole life.  Miz says he’d rather be booed for what he is than loved for what he’s not.  He’s the reason people watch RAW, not MVP.  He’s the most captivating superstar on this brand, not MVP.  MVP comes out with his bling, but you can put diamonds on a dog but it’s still a mutt.  Everybody will respect the United States Champion, because he’s The Miz, and he’s awesome!

MVP’s music interrupts The Miz’s new theme song.  He says that he doesn’t hide his past.  He’s embraced it, because quite frankly, he doesn’t want people to make the same mistakes he’s made.  Sure, he’s got an affinity for designer labels, and he shouldn’t have to apologize for that, he’s earn it.  Just like he’s earned the respect of the WWE Universe, which The Miz hasn’t done.  He’s worked hard for his spot in this circus we call the WWE.  MVP says he’s not a mutt.  MVP starts to take off his suit as a “Miz Is Awesome” chant breaks out.  MVP says he’s a Bengal Tiger, and Miz is a monkey flinging poop.  Miz says he’ll fling some at MVP’s lips so he can taste what comes out of his mouth.  MVP says that maybe Miz thinks he’s tame because he likes the finer things in life.  MVP talks about his time in jail and how he’s survived in a world that The Miz has only seen on television.  In fact, Miz’s Real World and MVP’s real world are worlds apart.  MVP dares Miz to take a chance.  The two stare down, then a brawl breaks out.  MVP wins the battle, booting Miz out of the ring.

Video: Tyson knocks out HBK at WrestleMania XIV

Still to come: Jericho & Tyson vs. DX, and will there be retribution for Mr. McMahon’s actions last week?

Those of you who are familiar with our site know by now that each and every Monday night, the last quarter of the RAW review is written by a guest host as I get ready to go to my real job.  For those of you who haven’t been here before, welcome!  Tonight’s guest host is the newest member of the BoredWrestlingFan.com staff, our resident TNAnalyst, chjpacheco!

Eve VS. Katie Lee

Quick match Eve wins with a DDT advances to face Maryse

Vinny MAC is on his way to the ring…he starts talking about Bret saying he didn’t hire extra security. Then he goes on to say that Bret screwed Bret and he doesn’t forgive and forget. He said Bret will NEVER EVER be seen in the WWE again

D-X VS. Chris Jericho & Mike Tyson

Tyson and HBK started the match out..Tyson looked  good match went both ways Hornswoggle came out and taunted Tyson then Tyson took his shirt off and he had a D-X shirt on hit Jericho on the button 1-2-3 D-X wins WOW we called it haha see you Thursday for iMPACT.

The post WWE RAW results 01/11/10 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  Well a couple months ago I said it was rumor, but it now has been made official, Heavy Metal’s big four: Metallica, Megadeth, Anthrax andSlayer will all share the stage together.  However it’s only for two shows over in Poland and the Czeh Republic.  No other dates have been announced yet.

2.  Bret Hart has resigned with WWE!  Yes, he is one of my all time favorites and it will be good to see him again, even though he won’t be wrestling.

3.  Sheamus won the WWE title at TLC!  Awesomeness. I didn’t think that WWE would actually go this route because by having this be a tables match, he could lose and it not heart him.  But you know what, WWE made the right move here and I ‘m not gonna complain.

4.  Drew McIntyre is the new IC champion.  Another good move on WWE’s part.

5.  DX are the tag team champions, ugh they don’t need them and shouldn’t be champs.  Let’s hope they don’t have them for long and they lose them to the Hart Dynasty.

6.  The Slammy’s (or should I say snoozes) were this past Monday.  They had some good moments but overall they were pretty lame.  Come on Batista channeling hie inner Kayne, Michael Cole trashing JR, seriously not good.  The host, Dennis Miller had his good points and bad points, more bad than good.

7.  So, since there will be an ECW title match at the Royal Rumble, ECW isn’t going away at the end of this month like has been rumored.  This is good, I like ECW as a whole and nd Jason here does a great job reviering it.  

8. Speaking of ECW. I actually laughed while watching the Abraham Washington Show, though it was when Tony Atlas admittited that the show “stinks” but still I laughed out loud.

9.  So we only get 1 week of “The Ripper” and he is unmasked immediately. (JT shakes head)

10.  Well I told you the the Ezekial Jackson face turn was a swerve, or is it?  This whole thin has me confused.  I can see a Koslov face turn now that he’s as American citizen where he comes out waving an American flag, I just don’t know if anyone will buy it.

11.  iMPACT! had a lot of talking, so much so is that when the wrestling finally happened, i had no interest in it.

12.  Aw how sweet, Jarrett and Angle made up.

13.  The best iMPACT! episode of the year will be this week.  Did I mention that it won’t be on this week. 

14.  Rey Mysteriois the new #1 Contender for the World title.  That’s kind of a shock.  I thought he needed knee surgery?  But then again I know someone who just had it and he still worked up until the day before it, so that probably why Mysterio is still wrestling.

15.  I figured that 5 wrestling shows was enough for this week and passed up on the “Tribute To The Troops” show on NBC.  Look, I know that this is a great thing yhat WWE does every year and they should continue to do it, but I just don’t want to watch them any more. 

Ok well that’s all I’ve got for you all this week.  Thanks again for reading and tune in later for both the Roundtable and the coverage for tonight’s TNA ppv.  And again Happy Holidays to all!

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1. Tables Match for the WWE title, Shaemus vs John Cena:

Tharvey1- I think Shaemus wins this one. There has to be a reason why they are pushing someone this new this early.

Drowgoddess- Sheamus to win. No, seriously. At least for a minute or two. A tables match is the only way that Super Cena can reasonably be beaten by the guy. Additionally, Cena’s comment about immediately exercising his rematch clause if Sheamus wins can’t be for nothing. I honestly think it might happen purely for the shock value, even if it comes to nothing in the long run.

RYTMAN- John Cena over Shaemus UNLESS Orton interferes. It’s just too soon for Shaemus and he can afford to lose to Cena.

JT- This is the perfect match for these two. If Shaemus loses, he can still walk around with the “I have never been pinned” gimmick foe awhile.  The same for Cena until he gets his rematch.  For my pick I going along with the majority here and gonna pick Shaemus for this one.

2.  Ladder Match for the ECW title, Christian vs Shelton Benjamin:

Tharvey1- Shelton gets his chance to carry the brand title. I see Christian moving to Smackdown in a free agent acquisition.

Drowgoddess- If it’s true that ECW and its championship is going away forever, this could be a great way to send them off. I would say Christian retains, except that this is the last chance to put somebody over with an ECW title win, and Christian HAS held the belt for a while now. I’m going to go with Shelton Benjamin to win this.

RYTMAN- Let’s say Shelton Bejamin over Christian for the ECW title, just for shits and giggles.

JT- If ECW is going away at the end of this month like has been rumored, then I don’t see the point of a title change here, Christian has had it long enough, him having it a couple more weeks wouldn’t kill.  But if ECW isn’t going away than a title change is needed.  I’m gonna make this unanimous and pick Shelton Benjamin.

3.  Chairs Match for the World Heavyweight Title, Batista vs. The Undertaker:

Tharvey1- I think Batista wins here. They have to give it to him before he gets hurt again.

Drowgoddess- Undertaker retains.

RYTMAN- Maybe Batista over Taker, so Taker can get time off to heal.

JT- I’m gonna go with Undertaker here, just too soon for Batista to take the title.

4.  Randy Orton vs Kofi Kingston:

Tharvey1- Orton wins this one. I don’t think Kofi will be allowed to rise any further than this.

Drowgoddess- Kofi wins. The “rubber match” is the one that he needs to win to cement his position anyway.

RYTMAN- Sadly, I’m going with Orton over Kofi. Hell if I know why. (Side Note: If Orton wins, look for Shaemus to beat Cena.)

JT- Kofi wins and moves up to the main event picture.

5.  Intercontinental Championship, John Morrison vs. Drew McIntyre:

Tharvey1- McIntyre shoots to the top of Smackdown really quickly and wins the IC title here. Do you think Vince wants to look stupid for endorsing this kid on TV?!

Drowgoddess- Drew McIntyre wins. Aside from his undefeated streak, a feud between these two over the IC belt will be money with Morrison chasing McIntyre, trying to get his belt back. Yes, I know that the IC title has traditionally been on the #2 guy in the company, but sometimes you need to shake things up a bit.

RYTMAN- I think Morrison might take it over McIntyre to set up a ruber-match at Royal Rumble.

JT- McIntyre wins by either count-out or DQ.

6. Mickie James vs. Michelle McCool:

Sorry this match wasn’t announced until this weeks Smackdown (which I watched this morning) so I didn’t know about it and RYTMAN & Tharvey1 had already sent me their picks no predictions from them.

Drowgoddess- Mickie James wins, and celebrates by putting McCool through a wood chipper. Hey, I can dream!

JT- What Drow said. 

7.  TLC Match for the Unified Tag Team Titles: DX vs. Jeri-Show:

Tharvey1- Jerishow will win. HHH and HBK won’t want to appear on Smackdown on a weekly basis.

Drowgoddess- I hope to every form of divinity ever devised by the minds of men that JeriShow retains. Part of this is because if Edge returns, I want to see him go after Jericho and tag with Christian one last time to take the titles from JeriShow. Unfortunately, between the show being in San Antonio and JeriShow getting the last word in on DX on RAW, I’m pretty sure DX is winning here. Boo.

RYTMAN- Now this is interesting. Shawn doesn’t want to go to SD, I think Hunter wants to stay on RAW, but I doubt they’re willing to job out.  I’m calling some kind of swerve ending where DX winds up w/the RAW titles and Jeri-Show winds up with the SD titles.

JT- The only way I see DX winning this is that the next night on RAW, Jericho calls out Big Show for being injured and demands his rematch.  He them picks a young guy (say Jack Swagger, McIntyre, or Ziggler) and they defeat DX for the belts.  Other than that Jeri-Show should win this one.

Well, we got some great predictions here. That’s all we have time for this week, I’d like to thank Drowgoddess, RYTMAN and Tharvey1 for joining me in this discussion.  Thanks again for reading and tune in next pay per view time for another edition of the BWF Roundtable.

The post BWF Roundtable: TLC appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  On a sad note Heavy Metal legend Ronnie James Dio was diagnosed with the early stages of stomach cancer.  We here at boredwrestlingfan.com wish you the best in his treatment and a speedy recovery.

2.  This weeks edition of RAW was the best show of the year.  Jesse Ventura has been the best guest host by far and it was great to see him run the show.  He’s another legend whe still has it.  Best part of the night, him and Vince on commentary!

3.  Speaking of RAW they made Sheamus the new #1 contender for the WWE title.  While I like Sheamus and think this is a good idea, I think it’s a little early for him.  What does this say to guys like MVP, Mark Henry, and Legacy?  Thanks guys for all of your hard work but were going this route. 

4.  Verne Troyer is hosting RAW this week, maybe he’ll get drunk and pee in the corner like he did on “The Surreal Life.”

5.  Shelton Benjamin is the new #1 contender for the ECW title.  Nice. Good to see that WWE isn’t giving the same matches on for the TLC ppv.  And the ECW match will be a ladder match which may end up stealing the show.

6.  So Ezekiel Jackson has left Regal and Koslov.  Does this mean he’ll be a babyface or is this just a setup?  I hope he stays solo, he is actually pretty good and would do well on his own.

7.  What is with Jericho and him picking partners who end up injured.  First Edge, and now Big Show. Wow.  However I still think that Jeri-Show will still end up winning the tag title matchup over DX at TLC and then Jericho will pick yet another partner.

8.  TNA made Bobby Lashley #1 contender to AJ Styles title.  Wait, I thought Dainels was wrestling Styles for the title at the Final Resolution ppv.  Doesn’t that make Daniels the #1 contender?????  Stupid TNA booking.

9.  Well I’m gonna say it, I am officially sick of Hulk Hogan in TNA, and he hasn’t even shown up yet.  But when you turn on iMPACT! and all they talk about from start to finish it Hogan, it makes me want to turn the channel.

10.  WWE needs some new tag teams, while I like both Cryme Tyme and The Hart Dynasty, I’m bored with seeing them wrestle every week.

11.  Festus has returned as Luke Gallows.  I don’t know about this one.  I liked the Festus character, but I’ll give this one a chance since he’ with CM Punk. is it just me or did Gallows look smaller than he did when he was Festus?

12.  WWE’s TLC pay per view is on Sunday December 13.  I will be hosting the Roundtabe for it so if you want to participate, PM me (on the forums)with your picks by no later than Saturday December 12 5pm Eastern time.

Well that’s all Ive got for now.  Thank you all for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

So, being a slow news week and all, I couldn’t really come up with much to talk about this time around, so I decided to kill some time before writing this article by looking through our Google Analytics stats and checking out some of the search terms that people are using to find us.  Of course, there’s always the usual “Raw Results” and whatnot, but there are a few surprising ones.  Some of the search results that have led people here, and the pages they likely landed on, after the jump!

nicole bass nude (also nichole bass nude and nicole bass porn)

The War on Everything (8/5/09 Edition)

Ok.  First of all, who’s the sick freak who wants to see that ugly pile of muscle naked?

The result is misleading, actually.  Legend Killer joked that Nicole Bass was Suicide, and made a mention of Vanessa Hudgens’  nude photo scandal, so the words “Nicole Bass” and “nude” both appear on the page, but not in the same sentence.

alan alda

The War on Everything (11/12/09 Edition)

The dude from M*A*S*H and Fergie were apparently in the same Atari Home Computer commercial, according to Legend Killer.

“leather pants”

Random Randomness (sort of)

Drowgoddess says she’ll apologize while wearing Tara’s leather pants if JT felt she stepped on his toes by writing her own version of Random Randomness while he was away on vacation.

ECW 11/17/09

With Paul Burchill and Katie Lea banished from the Land of Extreme, Jason mentions that he’s going to miss Katie Lea’s leather pants.

best wwe seats to be seen on tv

The life of a WWE seat-filler

BWF reader Gee chimed in to tell us about how he got to attend Monday Night RAW for free and get on TV while doing it as a “seat-filler” for the evening.

For the record, the best seats to get on TV at a live WWE event are the first level (100 level in every arena I’ve been to) of seats directly across from the camera.  That should get you on TV for sure.

buff bagwell nude pictures

ThinkSoJoE’s Thoughts (5/30/2009 Edition)

I have to wonder if the person who was searching for nude pictures of Buff Bagwell is the same one who was searching for nude pictures of Nicole Bass.

Much like the Nicole Bass search, this one is a bit misleading as well – I mentioned that Matt Striker may have been in trouble for some alleged nude photos, and that Buff Bagwell said he’d work for WWE for free if they called him.

earl hebner physical pictures

“Impact” Impressions 1/22/09

Earl Hebner physical pictures?  Seriously?  Some of these people need help.  Anyways, Drow’s iMPACT! review contains three of the four words, “Earl Hebner” and “physical,” but not in any way that would construe that we have physical pictures of Earl Hebner.

Ok, that’s enough of that.  I’ve really got nothing else to talk about, but maybe JT does.  He’ll be here tomorrow with another edition of Random Randomness!

The post ThinkSoJoE’s Thoughts appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  In January, Barack Obama officially becomes the 44th President of the United States.  Republicans & Conserviatves give him about 15 seconds in office before criticizing on how bad a job he’s doing.  (Note: JT’s opinions are not that of  Boredwrestlingfan.com and should not be taken seriously, he just writes things as he sees them and not to start a political debate)

2.   Guns N’ Roses album “Chinese Democracy” is finally released.  The album gets good reviews by critics but gets a mixed response from fans, mostly because of the lineup and not the music.  In this writers opinion, it’s one of his favorites.

3.  WWE finally rolled the ball and made Jeff Hardy WWE Champion, giving their fanbase what they want for a change.  At the the time of his WWE title reign, Matt was also ECW Champion making the Hardy Boys reign supreme over 2/3 of WWE programming.  If there only was a 3rd Hardy Brother.  

4.  Jeff would also go on and win the World Title two times this year also giving him 3 total.  Then just days after losing the Title to CM Punk, he is arrested for drug charges.  Rumor has it that he was set up and the charges will be thrown out.  As of right now the case is still up in the air.

5.  Metallica gets inducted into the Rock N’ Roll Hall Of Fame.  There they reunite with former bassist Jason Newstead for one night Metallica performs “Battery” and “Enter Sandman” as a 5 piece.   Then at the end of the show sees them playing “Train Kept Rollin” with an all star lineup including Joe Perry (Aerosmith), Jimmy Page (Led Zepplin), Jeff Beck, Ronnie Wood (Rolling Stones), and Flea (Red Hot Chili Peppers).

6.  Guitar Hero Metallica is also released, awesomeness ensues!

7.  CM Punk becomes the first man to win the Money In The Bank ladder match twice and in back to back years.  The he is drafted to Smackdown and becomes World Champion making him the only WWE superstar in the tri-brand era to be champion on all 3 brands.

8.  Christian returns to WWE after a 3 year hiatus, er I mean stint in TNA.  He is put on ECW and becomes ECW champion not once but twice.  Many of us thought he would be shipped to RAW or Smackdown by June, but he wasn’t which in this writers opinion is for the best.  I’d rather see him as a bi fish in a small pond, than be lost in the mix on RAW or Smackdown.

9.  RAW become the worst wrestling show on TV.  Yes it got even worse than iMPACT!

10.  Tommy Dreamer becomes ECW champion and holds the belt for longer than an hour.

11.  In front of a live crowd of over 125,000 and 9 billion viewers watching at home, JT defeats WWI superstar RDLee 7-6 in a 60 minute iron man match.  When asked the purpose of the match JT said “Because we can” and RDLee stated “we knew we could get the highest rating ever and we did!” *

12.  Because WWE didn’t think we had enough wrestling to watch every week, they added another program, or actually brought back Superstars.  Focused mainly on wrestling, the show is actually pretty good.

13.  Santino Marella dresses up like a woman, calls himself Santina and wins the “Miss Wrestlemania” crown at Wrestlemania.  While the Santina character is good at first, it quickly wears out it’s welcome and becomes stale and luckily dropped by WWE by Donald Trump firing Santina. 

14.  Kurt Angle was arrested for stalking his girlfriend the night before a ppv, yet TNA still keeps the title on him. 

15.  Green Day releases their follow up to 2004’s “American Idiot” called “21st Century Breakdown.”  The album is hailed by critics and is stated to be better than “American Idiot.”  JT’s opinion, it’s a great album, but it is nowhere near as good as “American Idiot.”

16.  VH1 Classic debut’s “That Metal Show” hosted by Eddie Trunk and comedians Jim Florentine and Don Jameson.  It’s a good show for anyone into Heavy Metal music and it names on of the “50 reasons to watch TV” by Rolling Stone magazine.

17.  We lost the talents of Michael Jackson, Billy Mays, Ed McMahon, Steve McNair and Patrick Swayze.  R.I.P.

18.  KISS returned with a new album this year called “Sonic Boom.”  I didn’t even know they were working on a record until right before it was released, so much for that retirement tour you went on in 2000.  This time they wear the classic makeup but original member Peter Criss and Ace Frehley are not on board.  This album features Eric Singer on drums (who played on Revenge, Alive 3, Unplugged, and Carnival Of Souls) and Tommy Thayer on Guitar (who played on Alive 4).  The reaultis a great CD with songs that range from all points in their carrer.  However it comes with a bonus Disc called “Klassics”  which is jus a rerecording of their biggest hits and not done well.

19.  Donald Trump buys RAW and then sells it back a week later.  In the brief time he owns it, he decides that there will be a celebrity guest host every week which continues on to this day.  Guest host have included: Seth Green, Jeremy Piven, Ozzy Osboune, Bob Barker, Shaq, Two Nascar guys, Al Sharpton, Cedrick The Entertainer, and Floyd Mayweather.  The results, some good some bad and some so bad that we don’t want to remember it happened.

20.  Gregory Helms brought back The Hurricane!  Only this time WWE plays it off that Helms and Hurricane are 2 different people.

21.  The ECW new talent initiative gave us the likes of Yoshi Tatsu, Shameus, Tyler Recks and Abraham Washington.  Tatsu and Shameus have promise, the others don’t.

22.  Zack Ryder is drafted to ECW and Kurt Hawkins disappears.  On ECW Ryder stops being the Edge follower and creates his own identity, and has become quite good in the process.

23.  Batista returned form injured, then got injured again, rinse repeat.

24.  Founding member of the Triumvirate of TN-Awesomeness Fritz Stephey goes out on an AMP binge, disappears and is never heard from again.  Taking his place in the Triumvirate, the understudy Drowgoddess!  Hmmm I’m thinking a conspiracy here.*

25.  Degeneration X returns not just for 1 night only, but permanently for now.  *groan*

26.  I attend my first ever indie show.

27.  In the span of the same 30 day period, I attend both a TNA house show and a WWE house show.

28.  In the match of the year by far, The Undertaker beat Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania25 to keep his undefeated streak alive.  That match itself was worth the $55 I paid for it.

Ok well I think that’s all I’ve got for you all this week.  Thanks again for reading and note, there will not be a Random Randomness next week, I’m taking it off for my birthday, but I should be taking part in the Roundtable for the next TNA ppv.  See you all next time.

WWE Championship Iron Man Match: John Cena vs. Randy Orton (c)

JT: As much as Cen need a change of scenery and him going to Smackdown would be a goog thing, I just don’t see it happening just yet. Cena wins.

Drowgoddess: Cena wins. I would like to be pleasantly surprised with this, as I’m a huge fan of the “60-Minute Iron Man” match, but I just don’t know if these two can go that long without a lot of stalling and padding.

RYTMAN: Orton beats Cena (w/screwjob finish.) Cena to Smackdown.

The Green Teabagger: Cena wins the WWE Title back (yeah, I know).

ThinkSoJoE: I think moving to SmackDown would be beneficial for Cena at this point in his career, though as much as I’d love to attend a Cena-free RAW on Monday, my head tells me it’s not happening.  Cena is arguably the biggest star in the company, and will most likely stay on the flagship show.  Cena wins.

World Heavyweight Championship Fatal Four Way: CM Punk vs. Rey Mysterio vs. Batista vs. The Undertaker (c)

JT: Ugh, this shoud Punk’s one on one match, not a fatal four way. Having said that, I’m going with Punk with the surprise win here, forwarding the upcoming Batista heel turn.

Drowgoddess: A Punk win would please me greatly. The odds are so stacked against him that a sneaky, stolen win would be a surprise. That said, I think they’ll have Taker retain.

RYTMAN: Undertaker retains, Batista gets pissed.

The Green Teabagger: Punk wins his belt back.

ThinkSoJoE: Mysterio will somehow cost Batista the win here, but I can’t see Mysterio winning the title either.  I think it’s too soon for him to lose it, so I’d say Taker retains.

SmackDown vs. RAW:  The Miz vs. John Morrison

JT: A loss by Morrison here won’t hurt him but willdo wonders for The Miz. The Miz Wins

Drowgoddess: The real winner here is the audience. I honestly don’t know that I care who wins this match, I’d be happy with either one. For the sake of a good story, I’ll pick the Miz.

RYTMAN: Morrison beats Miz.

The Green Teabagger: Shawn Michaels beats Marty Jannetty John Morrison beats The Miz

ThinkSoJoE: Because of the chemistry these two have, both as partners and opponents, and because there was no real feud between the two following The Miz dropping Morrison on RAW when he got drafted, The Miz is going to win this one.  Morrison will eventually get his rematch – and his revenge.  I’m calling it – Miz vs. Morrison at WM26.

14 Man SmackDown vs. RAW tag team match – Chris Jericho, Kane, Matt Hardy, Finlay, R-Truth, and The Hart Dynasty vs. DX, The Big Show, Jack Swagger, Kofi Kingston, Cody Rhodes, and Mark Henry.

JT: With the changes being made to this match at the last minute leads me more to believe that Team RAW wins here, at least with the original team there was potential for an upset.

Drowgoddess: Despite the changes to the “Smackdown” team, I’m pretty sure that the RAW team is winning here.

RYTMAN: Team Raw buries team Smackdown.

The Green Teabagger: D-X beats Smackdown when Big Show “betrays” Raw and D-X overcomes it. The other five members of the Raw team will be beaten up either way, and no one will remember that they won too.

ThinkSoJoE: Given that all of Team SmackDown, other than captains Jericho and Kane of course, actually lost their qualifying matches to get into this match, and that DX is captaining the other team, yeah, it’s unanimous – all of BWF are picking Team RAW.

6 Diva SmackDown vs. RAW tag team match – Michelle McCool, Beth Phoenix, & Natalya vs. Melina, Gail Kim, & Kelly Kelly

JT: Since the 14 man match will be the decider matchup and I picked the Miz, I’ll go with the Smackdown Divas here.

Drowgoddess: I can’t stand McCool, but I love Beth Phoenix and Natalya, and want to see them win. That said, I’m thinking Melina, Gail, and Kelly get the actual victory when Beth breaks McCool in half.

RYTMAN: I think Divas match is McCool vs. Melina. I’ll say Melina. (Note:  RYTMAN got this to me before the match was officially announced)

The Green Teabagger: I don’t give a damn. If there is any justice, Beth Phoenix will just go apeshit and tear everyone apart. Hell, Smackdown wins this one.

ThinkSoJoE: There is no way in hell that the RAW Divas should be able to win this with Beth Phoenix and Natalya on Team SmackDown.  But of course, if The Miz is going to win his match, Team RAW has to win this one to make it seem like RAW is still the dominant brand.

Thanks for visiting us here at BoredWrestlingFan.com today, come back tomorrow for an all new Random Randomness, as well as Bragging Rights coverage!

The post BWF Roundtable: WWE Bragging Rights appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

It’s time for RAW, if you weeeeel.  Break out the plunder!  We’re live from Detroit, and Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler announce a fatal four way for the US Championship tonigh – Kingston, vs. Miz vs. Carlito vs. Swagger.  Also Mark Henry vs. The Big Show.

Lillian introduces our guest host, the American Dream, Dusty Rhodes!

Dusty says hello to Detroit, and says he’ll be working on some night moves tonight.  Two years ago, Dusty was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame, right here in Detroit.  It made him think of a blue collar working city called Detroit, Michigan.  He was proud of that day.  He’s also proud of his son, Cody.  The crowd boos, and Dusty says he knows he gets a different attitude about himself when he’s running around with Randy Orton.  There’s nothing a father would not do for his son.  He’s hoping that someday Cody will see the light.  Maybe it’ll shine tonight.  In two weeks, one of the most devastating submission matches in history, I quit, at Breaking Point.  It will feature John Cena.  He will challenge for the WWE Title, and the man that John Cena will challenge will be…  Dusty’s son.  Because tonight, it will be Cody Rhodes vs. Randy Orton for the WWE Title, and Dusty will be in Cody’s corner.  Dusty says he’s tired.  He’s going to lay this out there – special referee for this match will be John Cena.

I hear voices in my head…

The WWE Champion arrives.  He walks down to the ring, and he says it’s obvious that Dusty Rhodes is jealous of him.  He’s jealous because Cody looks up to Orton more than he’s ever looked up to Dusty.  Trying to win back his son’s love by giving him a title shot is the most shameless act he’s ever seen.  What makes him think that Cody will even agree to face him.  Dusty says that Rhodes is hungrier than Orton, and Dusty will raise his hand tonight when he becomes the WWE Championship tonight.  Orton says Dusty is setting himself up for disappointment.  Orton asks why he shouldn’t kick Dusty in the skull again like he did two years ago.  Cody Rhodes makes his way out.  He tells Orton that Dusty happens to be his father.  His legacy in this industry runs deeper than Cody’s or Randy’s.  They’re associates, perhaps even friends, but this is a golden opportunity for Cody.  It’s something he will not pass up.  Just like Orton, he intends to become the youngest WWE Champion in history.  It’s not personal, strictly business.  Orton says he’s facing Dusty’s son, with Dusty in the corner and John Cena as a special guest referee.  Obviously, the fix is in.  Dusty says he better believe it.

Six Divas are randomly being explained the rules of a battle royal by a referee backstage.  Apparently that’s next.  Hooray.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Ugh.  We’ve got a six Diva battle royal for the number one contendership for the WWE Divas Championship.  You know what that means.  Snack time!

Beth Phoenix won a Six Diva Battle Royal

I didn’t even watch the whole match and I knew that Beth Phoenix was hanging out waiting to get back into the ring to eliminate the last person.  I saw her lying on the apron.  It works better in the male battle royals, since the guys can duck through the ropes and hide on the outside.

That means that later tonight, it’s Mickie James defending against Beth Phoenix.

Chris Jericho makes his way to the ring.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

The Vikings score a touchdown and hit the extra point, putting them up now by a score of 17-7.  What?  I’m supposed to be reviewing Monday Night RAW?  Do I have to?  Ok, fine.  Whatever.

Last week, Chris Jericho got knocked out, thanks to an MVP shot with Floyd Mayweather’s brass knucks.  He’s rubbing his jaw when we come back, and he’s set to take on Montel Vontavious Porter, MVP!

Chris Jericho def. MVP

You know, this should be a very entertaining match between two guys who will certainly be top guys in this company for years to come, but for some reason, I just can’t get into it.  Speaking of, MVP just can’t get into the ring, as Jericho hits a springboard dropkick to send him to the outside.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

It’s excellent back and forth action when we come back, and Jericho turns a Playmaker into a Codebreaker for the victory.

Dusty Rhodes is checking out the box for The Rise and Fall of WCW.  DX join in.  Dusty says that he’ll make sure one of them get a title shot if Cody wins tonight.  DX argue for a moment.  Then they tell Dusty they’re bored.  Dusty says they can hang out with him and watch this here DVD.  What DVD?  Shawn wonders if he’s talking about the Rise and Fall of WCW, available wherever DVDs are sold.  Dusty says they should buy his DVD.  Triple H says that he can’t just tell them to buy the DVD, but if they happen to be at the store and want to pick up the New and Improved DX DVD, they should.  Dusty says they should watch the DVD.  Shawn asks if they should be watching RAW.  Dusty gets the same look on his face that I probably had when I made the joke about having to watch this instead of football earlier and says “no.”  Triple H says Dusty’s the host, he can just tell them what happens.

Hornswoggle is walking around backstage and somebody is listening to Lance Cade’s old music.  He’s in action, NEXT!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Last week: Evan Bourne saved Hornswoggle.

This week: Dusty Rhodes has ordered a special Texas BullRope match.  The first superstar to tie his opponent with the bullrope will be declared the winner.

Hornswoggle is dressed like a cowmidget, and Chavo is dressed like a cow.

Hornswoggle def. Chavo Guerrero.  Again.

Hornswoggle laughs at Guerrero.  The referee tells Guerrero that he’s got one more thing for him per order of Dusty Rhodes.  It’s the head for the cow suit.  The referee tells him to put it on or he forfeits.  Jerry Lawler says that when he saw Hornswoggle, he thought he was a member of the Village Little People.  Anyways, this is ridiculous.  Hornswoggle rides Chavo like a cow.  Chavo takes the head off and climbs to the top rope.  Evan Bourne distracts him, and Hornswoggle pulls him off of the top rope.  Hornswoggle puts Chavo’s cow head back on – backwards, and ties him up for the win.

Chavo knocks Bourne down and goes after Hornswoggle, who sidesteps him and bites him on his rump roast.  Bourne dropkicks Chavo, and Hornswoggle climbs to the top rope, puts the cow head on, a big “moo” sound emenates from the speakers, and Hornswoggle hits the tadpole splash.  Michael Cole says “what a moooooooooooove.”  Fun times.

Big Show vs. Mark Henry is next.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Mark Henry def. The Big Show.

It’s Kool-Aid Man (Mark Henry in red) vs. Grape Ape (Big Show in Black and Purple).  Hooray.  Grape Ape rammed Kool-Aid Man’s head into the exposed turnbuckle and got himself disqualified.

After the bell, Show dropped Henry with a knockout punch.

Cody Rhodes is getting ready.  Ted DiBiase asks if he’s ready.  Rhodes says he’s going to make an impact.  Orton asks if he’s really going through with it.  Rhodes says he is.  Orton says that he agrees with what Rhodes said earlier – no matter what happens, it’s nothing personal, just business.

US Title action, coming up!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Backstage, Triple H says he was never in WCW.  Dusty says there was a guy in charge that they knew, named Big Sexy.  DX say they wouldn’t have let Nash run things.  Dusty says that WCW didn’t lose the Monday Night War, they kicked WWE’s ass from 1996 to 1998.  Dusty asks when HBK was WWE Champion.  HBK says from about 1996 to 1998.  Triple H says that WWE made a huge comeback.  Dusty says it was in 1998.  Hey, when did HBK get injured?  HBK says it was around 1998.  HBK leaves.  Hunter asks whose idea it was to dress a no talent hack like Marc Mero up like Little Richard.  They must be pretty stupid.  Dusty says it was him.

Kofi Kingston won a Fatal Four Way for the United States Championship

New rule.  Until RAW gets better, I’m actually writing as little as possible to get the point across about this show, starting right now – though to be fair to Carlito, Jack Swagger, The Miz, and Kofi Kingston, this is a very entertaining match.  In the end, The Miz hits the Skull Crushing finale on Swagger, Carlito hits the Backstabber on The Miz, and Kofi hits Trouble in Paradise on Carlito to retain the US Championship.  So far the most entertaining match in months on RAW.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Mickie James def. Beth Phoenix to retain the Divas Championship

The crowd couldn’t care less about this one.  Somebody could probably drop one of those DX glow sticks and you’d probably be able to hear it right about now.  In the end, it was Mickie James with a DDT to retain the title.  The crowd remained apathetic.

Backstage, Dusty is still trying to convince DX that WCW was pretty good.  Triple H says that it’s greatest moment isn’t in there.  The Shockmaster.  HBK asks about the Shockmaster.  Triple H tells him it’s the greatest thing ever.  A big huge fat guy with a glittery storm trooper outfit, and there was a goofy voice.  And then a goofy voice appears.  Some pyro goes off, and The Shockmaster falls through the wall.  HBK asks where the voice is coming from.  HHH says it’s right over there.  It’s Arn Anderson!  Dusty says it should’ve worked.  The Shockmaster took off his helmet, it’s Santino!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Every week here at BWF, we also have a guest host (or hostess, as the case may be).  While she may not be the American Dream, this week’s guest hostess is the Empress of Impact here at BWF, Drowgoddess!  Take it away, Drow!

Back from commercial break, Josh Matthews welcomes John Cena. Can we avoid another controversial decision? Cena yells a lot. He controls the fate of the WWE Championship, as special referee in the title match tonight. More yelling from Cena. A win by Cody Rhodes could destroy Legacy and cause Randy Orton’s career to crumble. Cena will not take sides, however he feels about Orton. Cena will not quit at “Breaking Point.” Still more shouting from Cena. He will not quit.

Cole and Lawler talk up the “Breaking Point” ppv in Montreal.

It’s match time! Tradition is again kicked to the curb, with WWE Champion Randy Orton entering first. With his title belt. Backstage, Dusty Rhodes pep talks Cody.

Returning from commercial break, Cody Rhodes enters, accompannied by Dusty Rhodes. Special guest referee John Cena technically gets the last entrance, and a bigger reaction than either guy actually wrestling for the show’s top title. Cena is not wearing any form of referee shirt. Cena tries to check Orton’s hands. Dusty gets the mic and says that there’s nothing that a father wouldn’t do for his son. He’s sorry, John. Orton, Cody Rhodes, and Ted DiBiase Jr. beat down Cena. The music kicks in, and DX makes the save on Cena. HHH tries to Pedigree Cody, but Dusty takes of a boot and hits him in the head. HBK gets taken down in the corner. Dusty and Cody Rhodes, Randy Orton, and Ted DiBiase Jr. stand tall over the prone forms of DX and John Cena.

Out of nowhere, Orton hits Dusty with the RKO. Cody freaks out. People cheer. Orton glares at Cody and DiBiase. The Legacy looks petulant, then chastised. We fade to black.

ThinkSoJoE’s Thoughts: Ok.  I’ll admit it.  I laughed my ass off at some of the DX stuff tonight.  Particularly when Arn Anderson was revealed as the voice behind Santino’s Shockmaster.  For the record, some of the people I talked to during the show seemed to think that the original Shockmaster, Fred Ottman, had passed on.  I’m pleased to report that, to the best of my (and Wikipedia’s) knowledge, Mr. Ottman is still with us.  In fact, WWE did a story on the former Tugboat just a couple of years back, which you can read here.

Kofi Kingston’s US Title defense was the best match I’ve seen on RAW in a long long time.  It was a SmackDown quality match featuring RAW wrestlers.  If RAW were filled with more matches like that and less talking segments, it would be a quality show.  Unfortunately, we’re stuck with complete crap most of the time.  I thought about skipping out on RAW next week and having an NHL 09 tournament (despite the fact that NHL 10 comes out a week later) instead, but I’m going to watch – not because of the fact that I’ve watched it every week for the last 17 years, but for the fact that Bob Barker is hosting.  John Cena, come on down!  You’re the next contestant on RAW is Snore!

The post RAW results 8/31/09 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  Jeff Hardy is the new World Heavyweight Champion.  He must’ve signed a new contract finally.  I don’t think this is bad, but WWE should’ve kept the belt on CM Punk until at least Summerslam.

2.  Christian is the new ECW champion and only the second 2 time ECW champion since ECW was brought back in 2006.  The other was Bobby Lashley.  Again not a horrible move, but I think Dreamer should’ve kept the belt until Summerslam.

3.  John Cena is the #1 contender for the WWE title yet again, why did they even bother with the Championship Scramble on RAW when we knew at the beginning who would win it.

4.  WWE should’ve went with someone like Mark Henry or MVP for the #1 contender spot, it’s not like the WWE title match will be the main event, I’m pretty sure that something else will.

5.  I actually think Shaq did a good job hosting RAW and was entertaining, too bad the rest of the program was horrible.

6.  Jeremy Piven & Dr. Ken sucked. 

7.  The Miz will be back on RAW.

8.  Sgt. Slaughter is hosting this week’s RAW in Canada this week.  A member of G.I. Joe hosting in Canada.   Isn’t it ironic, don’t ya think?

9.  The Abraham Washington show needs to go away, now.  Just go.  Stop wasting my time with this pile of Super Hero In Training.

10.   I missed the 200th edition od iMPACT! last week.  The world still turns.

11.  Have you checked out our new forums yet?  They’re quite nice.

12.  While I was on vacation The Brian Kendrick was released.  Why does WWE release talented guys like him and keep around Ricky Ortiz and Tyler Reckswho both suck.

13.  I went to the WWE house show in Verona, NY on 8/2/09 and guess who was there, Eugene!  It’s good to see him back.

14.  Are you ready?  I said are you ready?  For the return of X-Pac!  Oh wait, it’s not him. Then who can it be?  Enquiring minds want to know, or we’ll just have to watch RAW tomorrow to find out. 

Ok, that’s all I have for now.  Thanks again for reading, a special thanks to Drowgoddess for filling in while I was away and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  I just wanted to take a minute to let everyone know that you should all check out the other article’s here written byDrowgoddess, Legend Killer, Tharvey1, and the boss himself ThinkSoJoE.  They’re articles are equally as good, if not better than mine. 

2.  What is the point of having a 4 man #1 contenders tournament for Night Of Champions, just to have 2 guys win it and wrestle for the WWE title.  And on top of it the usual suspects. No wonder your ratings and buy-rates are down. People are sick of seeing HHH and John Cena in the Main Event.

3.  Why WWE must you break up Primo & Carlito? 

4.  I want more of Kofi Kingston vs. Evan Bourne! 

5.  WWE should hire Ted DiBiase Sr. full time to help guys with their promo skills.  He’s still better than half of the guys they have now.

6.  Christian is the #1 contender for the ECW title yet again.  Come on, this feud needs to end.  If you want to keep him in the title picture WWE, you should either: A) never taken the title off of him, or B) put the belt on Koslov at Night Of Champions, then have him feud with Christian. 

7.  Yoshi Tatsu is defiantly awesome!

8.  Ezekial Jackson is back, oh wait according to WWE he’s a part of the new talent initiative, (basically saying we’ve never seen him before) wait a minute? This guy was with The Brian Kendrick and wrestled On Smackdown just a few months ago.  Well what ever, He kinda reminds me of Ahmed Johnson for some reason.

9.  Stand Back, The Hurricane has returned!!!!!!!!!!!!!

10.  Though he was a little less annoying this week, Abraham Washington still sucks, thanks for trying.

11.  Even wrestling R-Truth, you can still hear a pin drop when Ricky Ortiz wrestles.

12.  I agree with tharvey1 on the Zack Ryder vs Tyler Reks matchup being “absolutely boring.”  Enough said.

13.  Chavo had to wrestle Hornswoggle on his knees.  Well at least  got to face some his own height.  I’m not gonna trash this match, because it really wasn’t bad at all.  It was quite good, but not main event material that it was given.  But then again it was the main event of an overall bad edition of Superstars, so I guess now it makes sense.

14.  Damn you ThinkSoJoE’s laptop!  I hate having to click on Aaron Wood’s crappy reviews.  They suck!  Aaron Wood Sucks!  The end.

15.  What happened to Maria?  Way back when she was a diva search contestant, she was the hottest little thing and after seeing her this week on Smackdown, she looks horrible.

16.  Gangsta Jesse is pretty entertaining thus far.

17.  The Dolph Ziggler bandwagon starts here!

18.  CM Punk is better than Jeff Hardy.  Well of course, thats why your world title reigns have been longer than his have.

19.  Mysterio vs. Jericho form this weeks Smackdown- Match of the year candidate.  What a great way to ent a feud.

20.  Shocker, Tara is the new TNA Knockouts champion.  Who is she, I don’t watch TNA you ask?  Why none other than former WWE women’s champion Victoria.  Not saying that it’s really a bad thing but she’s been in the company a month at most, kinda too soon.

21. Other than that iMPACT was just background noise for me this week, but check out Drowgoddess’ Review.  It’s quite good.

22.  I checked out UFC 100 last night.  I don’t really follow UFC so I didn’t really know what to expect.  I thought it was quite good and seeing former WWE champion Brock Lesnar pound on Frank Mir was awesome.

Well I guess that’s all for now, thanks for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  RIP Billy Mays.  Another icon has left us.  This one kinda hits me a little harder than the Michael Jackson, I think mostly because he was still in the spotlight and at the top of his game.  No one could sell a product like he could and probably never will.

2.  RIP Steve McNair.  Wow, I can’t believe it.  An NFL star who was playing  just two years ago is gone.  Though I was never a fan of  the Titans or the Ravens, I was very aware of how great a Quarterback he was.

3.  Killswitch Engage’s new album- great album or the greatest album?  Check it out and let me know. 

4.  Edge & Chris Jericho are the new Unified Tag Team Champions.  Can it get any better?

5.  John Cena vs. Triple H to see who will be #1 contender for the WWE title.  Do they really want me to not watch RAW?  Because that’s what I’m thinking about doing.

6.  Mark Henry pins Randy Orton? What does this mean????

7.  So, WWE had a 15 superstar trade this week.  I’m not really surprised, this is time of year is usually draft time. Here’s what I think about the trade:

To RAW:

1. Evan Bourne- good idea, he is definitely ready.
2. Jack Swagger- don’t think he’s ready yet, should’ve kept him on ECW until next year.
3. Mark Henry- another good idea, he had nowhere else to go in ECW, and the possible face turn just might be worth watching.
4. Alicia Fox- weren’t you just put on Smackdown from ECW?
5. Gail Kim- good idea.

To ECW:

1. Shelton Benjamin- good move, he wasn’t really going anywhere on Smackdown  and it gives Christian & Tommy Dreamer someone new to feud with.
2. Goldust- good move, ECW lacks babyfaces and a fine addition he will be.
3. William Regal- another good move, will be ECW champ by Suvivor Series.
4. Brie  Bella- don’t care
5. Nikki Bella- see #4

To Smackdown:

1. The Hart Dynasty-  while this is good for them, I just think they are ready yet, they’re still too new.  But when your the only tag team on ECW, I understand the move.
2. Matt Hardy- not a good idea, he was just moved to RAW, they should’ve kept him there.
3. Finlay- good move, he had nowhere else to go on ECW.

 8.  As per the new talent initiative- Yoshi Tatsu & Sheamus have potential while Abraham Washington thanks for trying.

9.  When I first saw Abraham Washington, I at first thought “The Rock is making a surprise appearance”, but was let down.

10.  Santino Marella getting mad is the new “Hulking Up.”

11.  The “Word Up” segments suck. The end.

12.  When Ricky Ortiz wrestles, you can hear a pin drop.  WWE release him already.

13.  Welcome back Kane.

14.  I’m glad to see that WWE is not making Dolph Ziggler look like a joke anymore.  I actually kinda like seeing his matches.

15.  I don’t remember much from iMPACT! this week and then red Drowgoddess’  review and remembered why. It was that bad.

16.  Edge said lat Sunday at the Bash, that “I’ve been on every Pay Par View in the lat 10 years when he hasn’t been injured” then (rumor has it) he gets injured.  Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think?

Alright that’s all I’ve got for now, thanks again for reading and see you all next time!

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  As soon as your done reading this article go to the movies and see “The Hangover” (as along as the theatre in your area is open). It’s hilarious and a must see for any and everyone.  Just don’t bring the kiddies, it kinda isn’t for them.

2.  Congrats to the Pittsburgh Penguins for winning the NHL Stanley Cup.  First the Steelers in the NFL, now the Penguins in the NHL, no Pittsburgh NBA team, so the pressure’s on Pirates, you don’t want to let your city down do you. 

3.  RIP Mitsuharu Misawa. 

4.  Umaga was released this week.  I’m not really surprised, with his come back, disappear comeback push he’s been getting the last year or so, I’m surprised it didn’t happen sooner.

5.  Holy titles changes Batman!  All of the singles titles change hands in a 7 day period, some twice!

6.  Tommy Dreamer wins the ECW title. YES!  I really didn’t think they were gonna do it but WWE did.  

7. Chris Jericho is the 9-time IC champ, also a good thing.

8.  When I saw the Jeff Hardy won the World title, I was like cool he signed a new contract, then I saw that CM Punk cashed in his money in the bank and won the World title, I jumped for joy!  Now I’m hoping Punk has the titl until August when I go to the Smackdown/ECW house show. 

9.  Batista wins the WWE title, the world still turns.  But wait theres more, “Mr Kevin Nash of the WWE” was injured prior to the matchup and is now out of action.  You know what I notices this at the previous RAW when Orton was pounding on Flair, Batista made an attempt to climb the cage and couldn’t.  So maybe he was injures there.

10.  HHHe’s back! 

11.  I never look forward to 3 hour RAW’s  even if they’re advertising all three brand titles will be on the line.  WWE, we have enough programming every week , we don’t need more.

12.  Santino Marella, Goldust, and Festus- GREATEST TEAM EVER!

13.  Vickie Guerrero is gone!  Happy days are here again.

14.  A heel Christian?  I thought it was going to be a heel Dreamer?  But then again with the lack of babyfaces on ECW, I wouldn’t be surprised if neither on turns heel.

15.  I messed up and forgot to DVR Superstars until 10 minutes after the replay started.  Then when I watched I realised that I only missed the Diva match, so I didn’t miss anything.

16.  I’ll have to say that Zack Ryder look really good against Evan Bourne this week.  Maybe he’s not so bad after all.  Woo Woo Woo really sucks ass though.

17.  Jericho vs. Morrison was awesome.  This should be a ppv match and we got on on cable TV (well those of us with WGN) wow is wwe stupid.

18.  A heel CM Punk is coming!

19.  Holy Crap, I totally missed the Dolph Ziggler/Great Khali match.  That’s what I get for not paying attention while fast forwarding my DVR.

20.  CM Punk vs. Chris Jericho part 3- Awesomeness

21.  As with Edge vs. Jeff Hardy, but wait I thought there feud was supposed to end at Extreme Rules?

22.  Shocker, Kurt Angle is in the King Of The Mountain match.

23.  Samoa killed not one but two Main Even Mafia members this week, could TNA finally be starting to put the younger guys over?

Well I think that’s enough for this week. Thank you all for reading and see you all next time.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  The new Heaven & Hell CD “The Devil You Know” is quite good, you should check it out.

2.  I saw Wolverine this week and that it was a very good movie, well worth seeing in theaters.

3. I didn’t see Backlash last Sunday, but I do know what happened.  I was surprised to see that all three titles changed hands.  Edge was pretty much a given since Smackdown has no champion, so no surprise there.  Christian winning the ECW title was a little surprising, but would’ve happened sooner or later.  Orton winning the WWE title, was a complete surprise to me, I really didn’t think it was gonna happen, let alone he pinning Triple H in the match to win it.  Congrats to all the new champions.

4.  Kofi Kingston vs. The Brian Kendrick was a good match, I hope that WWE ends Kendrick’s losing streak soon.  I’m sick of seeing him lose.

5.  Goldust is still employed by WWE.  Good for you.

6.  MVP debuts on RAW against WWE Champion Randy Orton, and puts on a great performance, but of course doesn’t win thanks to  McMahon interference.  Thanks Shane. 

7.  The Miz- 1, John Cena- 0.  LEST GO MIZ!

8.  Hey look, Tag Team Jobbers Extraordinaire- Chavo Guerrero & Jamie Noble.

9.  Batista vs. The Big Show- zzzzz (not really I already spoke about it here http://boredwrestlingfan.com/2009/04/27/raw-bullet-points-42709/#respond)

10.  The ECW title on Christian looks huge. Almost like my Undisputed Title looks when I (or try to) wear it.

11.  Tyson Kidd jobs to Hornswoggle last week, then this week beats Finlay.  I just don’t get it.

12.  Tyson Kidd is looking better & better every week.  He’ll be involved in the title picture very soon.

13.  Koslov says it’s only a matter of time before he gets releasedachieves global domination.  And he was in a Russian military outfit.

14.  Gregory Helms is now an interviewer.  WHAT’S UP WITH THAT?

15.  A great ECW title match was ruined once again by a run-in.  Thanks again WWE.  Methinks there will be a triple threat match at the next ppv for the ECW title between Christian, Jack Swagger, and Tommy Dreamer.

16.  Why is it that every time I see Evan Bourne’s Shooting Star Press, it amazes me.

17.  Not to take away form the greatness that was Bourne vs. Burchill 2.  I really like this feud, even though it’s now probably over.

18.  Dibiase vs. Carilito- two words “that’s cool!” Sorry I just had to say it.  I just wish that Cody Rhodes wasn’t Dibiase’s partner so I could really get into this tag team title feud. 

19.  The impossible happened.  Kevin Nash wrestled two matches two weeks in a row and didn’t get injured.  I’m starting to believe this “world’s gonna end on 12/21/12” prediction.

20.  Who the hell is Amazing Red?  

21.  Why is TNA putting over Tag Team’s such as the MCMG & LAX?  I know you’re having a tournament and in tournament’s you have upsets, but come on TNA, you can so do better than this.

22.  Unfortunately, I forgot to set my DVR and missed Smackdown this week, sorry.  I did check RDLee’s awesome review and it looks like it was a really good show, sucks that I missed it.  If you want to check it out here’s the link: http://www.worldwrestlinginsanity.com/am2/publish/Smackdown/5109.shtml

23.  Here’s a question, which show gets a higher rating:  Superstars, iMPACT, or ECW? 

24.  Finally, I just want to let everyone know that I am now on twitter like all of the cool kids.  Follow me  at  twitter.com/randomredhead.

Well that’s all for this week, thanks for reading and I’ll see you all next time.

Reviewing RAW; after the jump!

EXCUSE ME!

SmackDown’s General Manager is here, and she’s brought her husband, the World Heavyweight Champion Edge, with her!  That’s right, SmackDown’s Edge is the RAW World Heavyweight Champion.  That means that the R in Rated R Superstar stands for “remarkable.”  The fans were calling him a loser after he lost his WWE Championship, but they were WRONG!  Wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong wrong!  Edge competed in two elimination chambers in one match, that means Edge is a walking miracle.  Jesus may have turned water into wine, but Edge turned the WWE title into the World Heavyweight Championship.  Vickie says that for those of us who didn’t see No Way Out, Stephanie McMahon went with Shane to the hospital.  When that happened, Vickie Guerrero became the highest ranking WWE official in charge, so when Kofi Kingston couldn’t compete in the Elimination Chamber, she had to make an executive decision, and replace him with somebody who was deserving, and since Edge lost his title earlier in the night, nobody was more deserving than he was.  After speaking with the WWE Board of Directors, it’s official, Edge is the new World Heavyweight Champion!  The fans may not like it, but every one of them will accept it.  Edge and Vickie start to make out – and are interrupted by the former World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena!

Cena congratulates Edge.  He did it.  Nobody thought he could pull it off, but he did it.  Some wrestlers would threaten to sue the company because of what happened, but the fact of the matter is that Edge got himself in the match and he won fair and square.  Cena doesn’t like it, but hey, congratulations to the new World Heavyweight Champion.  The R stands for “remarkable, really really lucky, right place right time,” and “rematch.”  Maybe Cena didn’t hear Edge earlier, he competed in two Elimination Chamber matches last night, he’s not wrestling tonight, and maybe not for a month.  If Cena wants to see him, he’ll be on SmackDown.  Cena says that’s alright.  He doesn’t want Edge to have any excuses.  Go back to SmackDown, tell Festus and Funaki that he says hello.  However, since Edge is officially World Heavyweight Champion, and Cena officially has a rematch clause?  Edge reminds Cena of all the good times they’ve had together, like when Edge cashed in Money In The Bank and took the WWE Championship from him, or when he went to Cena’s house and slapped his father.  Doesn’t matter, because “the champ is here.”  Cena says that if Edge tries to run, Cena will catch him, if he tries to hide, he’ll find him.  They’re going to fight, and Cena’s going to hurt Edge.

Shane McMahon is backstage.  He says that he proposes that Randy Orton meet him in the ring, and they settle this until one of them can’t move.  No rules, no ref, no Legacy, nothing, just a fight.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Cryme Tyme are in the ring for some ungodly reason.  They’re soon joined by CM Punk.  Their opponents are William Regal and Team Priceless.

Priceless & William Regal def. Cryme Tyme & CM Punk

Seriously?  We’re wasting Punk, Regal, and Priceless in a six man tag team match with Cryme Tyme involved?  What did those four do to deserve that?  Also, aren’t Priceless supposed to be elitists who will only team up with you if you’re at least a second generation wrestler?  Ah, more questions.  Gotta love it.  Anyways, things get kind of chaotic, and when the dust clears it’s Ted DiBiase with the DreamSweeper on JTG for the victory.

Stephanie asks Shane if he’s crazy.  The doctors didn’t even want to let Shane fly, let alone wrestle.  She wants him to wait a week – but Shane won’t be stopped.  The fight happens tonight whether Orton wants to or not.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Later tonight, Melina defends the Women’s Championship against Beth Phoenix, but right now, please welcome Chris Jericho!  He doesn’t want the Academy to give the Oscar to Mickey Rourke, because it could send a message to the has been losers to try for one last run.  Jericho knows why we cheer for the legends – it’s because they’re like us.  Weak, shallow, insecure human beings, hypocrites and liars who need to be shut up and shut down for their own good.  Jericho’s just telling the truth, and the truth hurts…

Jericho is interrupted by…  “ROWDY” RODDY PIPER!  Piper says he’s going to give Jericho the truth.  Piper used to like Jericho, since he said what was on his mind, then had the guts to get in the ring and back it up.  Now he gets on television and runs his mouth.  He calls out Piper, he calls out Flair, calls out the other legends.  He used to be entertaining.  What happened?  He’s talking about what the legends should be doing – Piper wants to borrow a line from Jericho – “Please, shut the hell up.”  Jericho starts to talk, but Piper tells him he’s not finished yet.  The Wrestler is not about old timers who want another run.  It’s about the honor and respect they have for everybody.  The movie is about the pain, physically and emotionally, and most of all, most important, why they do what they do?  For the thrill of performing.  Flair was right.  They live for this.    People come to him and tell him they remember when he slapped Mr. T, or that when their granddad was alive, they watched him shave Adrian Adonis’ head.  Jericho wants to bury these moments – no, these are to be celebrated.  Last year, Piper was in the Royal Rumble, and when he came to the ring, 24,000 people sprung to their feet just for a second, and Piper felt like he was back in the first WrestleMania.  It was the thrill of a lifetime.  Piper’s got one hip, and he hurts all the time, but as long as the fans say so, Piper will crawl down on his hands and knees to give them one more memorable moment, because old school is cool.  He reaches his hand out, but Jericho doesn’t accept.  Instead, he kicks Piper in the shin and boots him in the midsection when he goes down.  He wants respect?  Crawl!  Jericho boots him again for good measure before leaving.

Todd Grisham is backstage with Randy Orton.  Yay, more talking.  Randy’s got no problem fighting Shane McMahon.  He’s got a problem with the implication that he needs Legacy.  If Shane wants this fight to be over when someone isn’t moving, Orton can make that happen.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

WRESTLEMANIA MOMENT: WrestleCrap inductee WrestleMania IX, the World’s Biggest Toga Party, and the first outdoor WrestleMania saw Hulk Hogan win the WWF Championship after Yokozuna stole it from Bret Hart.

Jamie Noble wants in at WrestleMania.  He’s sure he could last longer than Chavo Guerrero did last year.  Chavo’s opponent from last year comes to the ring…

Kane def. Jamie Noble

…and beats Noble in 16 seconds – nearly double Chavo’s match with Kane.

JBL has a paid announcement coming up after the break!

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

JBL makes his way out to the ring.  He says that as of last night, Shawn Michaels is no longer his employee.  His people wrote Shawn a very large check, he’s now paid in full.  He’s now financially stable, and JBL could care less.  While we may call Shawn rich now, we may call JBL wealthy.  He’s got more money than any of us will ever have.  He thought it was destiny for him to win the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania, but he had an epiphany.  He’s going to something nobody has ever done.  He’s going to end “the streak.”  JBL’s destiny is to go to WrestleMania and end the streak, proving he’s the greatest wrestler of all ti…

Oh, oh Shawn!

Shawn Michaels interrupts his former employer, smiling and dancing on the way to the ring.  Last night, he had an epiphany too.  He’s no longer “Shawn Michaels, employee of the month.”  Nope, we’re looking at the Heart Break Kid Shawn Michaels, the Showstopper, the Main Event, Mr. WrestleMania.  He’s got his life back.  A month ago, a man told him it’s hell getting to heaven.  That man was the Undertaker, and he’s right.  With WrestleMania on the horizon, HBK is in heaven on earth.  Who better to face The Undertaker, than the man who revolutionized the ladder match at WrestleMania, the man who had the 2008 Match of the Year at WrestleMania with Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels!  JBL says that beating The Undertaker at WrestleMania is his destiny, not HBK’s.   Michaels reminds JBL that he can’t tell him what to do anymore.  Instead, how about next week, HBK vs. JBL, winner faces The Undertaker at WrestleMania.  JBL accepts.  HBK says that when it’s over, it’ll be him taking on The Undertaker at WrestleMania, and JBL will be lucky if he even makes it to WrestleMania.

Video package: Randy Orton’s assault on Mr. McMahon and his subsequent feud with the McYoungins.

Rey Mysterio is wearing some tighter pants  than normal – and a full mask for once.  Guess who his opponent is.  You guys have been reading BWF’s RAW reviews the last couple months or so, this should be easy.  Did you say Mike Knox?  Congratulations, you’re absolutely correct!

Rey Mysterio def. Mike Knox

Six man tags and rematches.  Yup, must be Monday.  I get the point of Knox beating up on a fan favorite, but does it always have to be the same fan favorite?  Before this, Mysterio feuded with Kane for what felt like an eternity, and it didn’t really get Kane anywhere (or Mysterio for that matter).  I like Knox, I like Mysterio, but seeing the same damned match every week is getting boring.  At least this week I got to watch it in HD, finally.  This time around, Mysterio ducked out of the way of a charging Knox and rolled him up for the pinfall.

Santino, sans unibrow and sporting a new haircut and earrings, Beth Phoenix, and Rosa Mendez are walking backstage.  Beth tells them that tonight she needs to win back the Women’s Championship.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Melina makes her way out with the WWE Women’s Championship, as she’s set to defend it.  Beth comes out with Rosa Mendez and Santino Marella, but Lillian only announces Beth.

Melina def. Beth Phoenix to retain the WWE Women’s Championship.

Here we go again.  Another rematch.  The highlight was a Jerry Lawler joke:  “I finally figured out what women want in a relationship.  Security.  Everytime I walk up to a Diva backstage, that’s what they yell.”  Santino and Rosa went after Melina on the outside, but Kelly Kelly, Mickie James, and Candice Michelle came out and started beating the crap out of both of them.  In the confusion, Melina gets the rollup and the pin!

We already know Steve Austin is in the Hall of Fame, but it’s time to announce the next inductees:  Terry Funk and Dory Funk Jr., being inducted by the American Dream Dusty Rhodes.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Thank you, Saliva, for your song “Hunt You Down,” the official theme from No Way Out.  At least you’re not Kevin Rudolph.

So, for the benefit of those with short attention spaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaans: Appropriately for a segment of the review with “for the benefit of those with…” in the title, this replay is of Edge showing up on RAW and being challenged to a rematch by John Cena.

Backstage: Stephanie is on the phone, urging somebody to hurry up and get to the arena before Orton kills Shane dead.

<COMMERCIAL BREAK>

Next week: JBL vs. HBK for the right to be number 17 for The Undertaker’s ‘Mania streak.

HERE COMES THE MONEY!

Why do these guys get entrances for just a plain old fight?  And why didn’t they just fight backstage?  It’s like a grade school fight, except instead of a flagpole, they’re meeting at the ring.  At least they called it a fight – these two brawled all over the arena, with Shane getting a lot of the offense in.  We got a unique camera shot in this match too – you could see the in-arena production booth, which is never really seen on TV.  By the time they get back to the ring, Orton is in firm control, just pounding away at Shane.  Orton allows Shane a moment to breathe, and Shane shoves him over the announce booth, then goes on the attack as some guy in the crowd keeps yelling “whoop ’em, Shane!”  Orton takes a shot with the ring bell, then Shane drags him to the ring and rolls him into it.  Shane props Orton up in the corner and gives him another shot with the bell for good measure.  Shane wedges a chair into the ring ropes, and goes up for the Coast to Coast, but Legacy come out and lay a beatdown on him.  Rhodes hits the CrossRhodes (which is a reverse swinging neckbreaker, not a reverse DDT as I said last week), and Orton backs Priceless away.  He backs into a corner, and gives Shane The Randy Orton Magic Mega Kick of Final Ultimate Death!!! (Thanks again for coining that term, G-Bag!).  As Shane lie unconscious, Stephanie runs down to check on little brother.  The trainer comes down as well and calls for the paramedics.  Orton looks on intently, drawing ever closer to the carnage.  Stephanie stands up and starts trying to reason with Orton, who drops her with an RKO, apparently because of his IED.  Triple H runs down to the ring and chases off Legacy, then checks on Stephanie as the EMTs attend to Orton.  The WWE Champion looks violently up the ramp at Orton, who looks purely terrified at first, with the look changing to one of “what have I gotten myself into?”  The Game is fuming as RAW goes off the air.

My Thoughts: I’m tired of rematches.  Also, there’s no reason the ending of tonight’s RAW couldn’t happen at No Way Out.  Speaking of, John Cena is supposed to get a rematch with Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship.  That means that even if Orton wanted to face Edge for the World Championship instead of Triple H for the WWE Championship, he couldn’t really, because Cena’s got a rematch clause.  While we’re on this line of thought, shouldn’t Edge have a rematch clause?  Why couldn’t he challenge Triple H to a match for the WWE Championship?  He wouldn’t have to win, it wouldn’t change anything, but it would take care of that pesky little glitch in continuity.  Whatever, I’m overthinking it.

The post RAW Review – 2/16/09 appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1.  I actually checked out TNA’s Against All Odds ppv, and all I can say is that I’m glad I didn’t pay for it.

2. Congrats to Metallica on winning 2 Grammy awards last Sunday even though I think that the Grammys are a big  joke.

3. RAW was a big pile of “meh.”  Nothing really stood out, not even Orton vs. Undertaker.

4.  Christian made his WWE return this week on ECW.  Welcome back!  I totally marked out when he interrupted Swagger.  Plus he looked like he was back where he belonged.  Though does that mean that I can’t wear my Christian t-shirt during Impact anymore.

5.  I’m gonna wait on Tyson Kidd right now.  I know he trained in te Hart Dungeon, but I’ll need to see him face someone other than “insert random nameless jobber.”

6.  Angle did the job on Impact.  WTF????  Is the world about to end?  I thought Angle had it in his contract that he never jobbed on free TV, let alone to Brother D-Von.

7.  Headdress on a pole match, really???

8.  ODB is offering a “Night with ODB.”  I like to party, but I think I’ll pass.

9.  Other than the Impact was the usual.

10.  Why are both the WWE and World Tag Team Champions feuding?  And over women who I don’t really find all that attractive.

11.  Jeff Hardy’s promo was missing something.  What, I don’t know it jus fetl that way and when it was over, was like “that’s it?”

12.  Wat always amazes me, is everyone saying that “I’m gonna win the WWE title this Sunday!”  I heard it 4 times on Smackdown. Sorry only one of you can possibly win it and that’s if the Champ doesn’t retain.

13.  I agree with Joe’s opinion that the whole Smackdown show was lackluster.  And that’s sad, seeming it’s usually the best program of the week as of  late.

14.  I didn’t watch No Way Out, but I do know what happened.  What is with WWE and all the title changes?  This is like the 4th time the WWE title has changes hands since Survivor series.  I can understand it changing at Royal Rumble, but not at No Way Out.  I don’t know, I just think that the Rumble should set up Wrestlemania, and not an in between ppv.

Well I guess that’s it for now.  Thanks again for reading and see you all neat time!

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

1. So, Vince returns to RAW this week.  Everybody better pucker up.

2. Stone Cold Steve Austin is the first named to be inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame.  I’ve got three words for ya: “OH HELL YEAH!”

3. Speaking of the hall of fame, Metallica is now officially a 2009 inductee into the Rock N’ Roll Hall of Fame!  Awesome.  Congratulations guys, you deserve this!

4. It was asked over on the World Wrestling Insanity message boards if we will ever see Austin vs. Hogan at Wrestlemania. Hogan was the man made me a fan, while Austin made a die hard fan.  Having said that, I personally don’t care if it happens or not.  If they were both still in their primes, then I would be all for it, but not really now.

5. Go EAGLES!

6. The Cena/HBK match was awesome.

7. Santino is officially a participant in the Royal Rumble.  Well at least it’ll be entertaining for the 15 seconds he’ll be in it.

8. Jack Swagger is the new ECW champion. Really?  I don’t think he’s ready for it yet.  But maybe they have bigger things for Matt Hardy by having him win the Rumble go to Smackdown and challenge Jeff for the WWE title at WM 25.

9. Did I mention that DJ Gabriel Sucks Ass?

10.  Didn’t really watch Impact this week, sorry.

11.  Speaking of TNA, why the hell do you give the tag team titles to Lethal and Creed only to have them lose it back to Beer Money 3 days later at the PPV?  And to top it all off they make Creed an Lethal the number 1 contenders on this weeks Impact. Makes no sense to me.
 
12.  MVP WINS!  MVP WINS!  Like we were gonna go without HHH being in the Royal Rumble.

13. Speaking of HHH him showinging the nude pictures of Vickie Gurrerro remids me of why I’m not a fan.

14. R-Truth/ Brian Kendrick feud is an awesome idea.

15.  Jeff Hardy got burned up,  WTF???

Well that’s all for this week, thanks again for reading and have a good week.

The post Random Randomness appeared first on BoredWrestlingFan.com.

Hey everybody.  Just wanted to chime in and give my two cents on Cyber Sunday.  Taking a look at the card here’s how it looks:

1. WWE Championship (WWE Universe chooses challenger) choices are: 

• a. Jeff Hardy
• b. Kozlov
• c. Both

What I think should happen- I would like to see HHH take on both of them.  Then during the match HHH gets knocked out of the ring, Kozlov does his headbutt thingy on Jeff Hardy, pins him and wins the WWE title.  

What probably will happen- Jeff hardy gets 90% of the vote and faces HHH one-on-one, with HHH coming out on top.

2. Undertaker vs. Big Show (WWE Universe chooses type of match) choices are:

• a. Knockout Match
  b. I Quit Match
  c. Last Man Standing Match

What I think should happen- I don’t have much to say about this match so I’m going with Last man standing.

What will probably happen- Last man standing, Taker gets his win back.

3. WWE Diva Halloween Costume Contest– I don’t care, nuff said.

4. Pick the Tag Team Match choices are:

• a. World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase vs. CM Punk & Kofi Kingston
• b. John Morrison & The Miz vs. Cryme Tyme
• c. Jamie Noble & Mickie James vs. William Regal & Layla

What I think should happen- First, let me say what won’t happen.  The mixed tag match.  If it gets more than 10% of the vote I’ll be surprised.  Now back on the subject, I think that the tag title match will happen.

What probably will happen- Tag title match, Punk and Kingston win.

5. Cyber Sunday Preview Match (United States Championship Match) the choices are:

• R-Truth
• MVP
• Festus

Wow good to see Shelton get on the card (even if it’s a preview match on wwe.com) and no doubt that he’s gonna be facing and losing the belt to R-Truth. (that’s both what I think and probably will happen)

6. ECW Championship Match (WWE Universe chooses Matt Hardy’s opponent) Choices are:

• a. Mark Henry
• b. Evan Bourne
• c. Finlay

What I think will happen- If anyone has seen Evan Bourne, then there should be no doubt that he should be facing Matt Hardy. 

What probably will happen- Evan Bourne faces Matt.  The guy is awesome and even proved it last Tuesday on ECW so that will turn the vote in his direction.

7. Kane vs. Rey Mysterio (WWE Universe chooses type of match) choices are:

• Falls Count Anywhere Match
  No Holds Barred Match
  Best 2-out-of-3 Falls Match

What I think should happen- Ugh, this is one feud I don’t care about.  I am not a fan of Rey Mysterio’s (never have) so anything involving him I just don’t give a s#@*.  I gonna go with No Hols Barred.

What will probably will happen- Falls Count Anywhere. Kane kills Rey and takes his mask.

8.Intercontinental Championship Match (WWE Universe chooses Santino Marella’s opponent) Choices are:

• a. “Rowdy” Roddy Piper
  b. Goldust
  c. Honky Tonk Man      

• a. Randy Orton
  b. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin
  c. Shawn Michaels

Man even Batista puts me to sleep even typing his name. 

What I think will happen- Randy Orton being a choice is a joke.  If he gets more than 5% of the votes I will know this whole thing is rigged.  This is going to be very close between HBK and Stone Cold.  Since Austin is supposed to be there and I don’t see having him there and not using him so he wins.

What probably will happen- Austin gets 50%, HBK 49%, Orton 1%.  Austin during the match gets pissed off at both Jericho and Batista, stuns them counts them both down but just before 3 Jericho gets his arm on Batista and retains.

Well those are my thoughts on Cyber Sunday, hope you didn’t too bored and go away.  If you didn’t thanks for reading and hop to see you soon.
