 December14th 2009
After a special video plays hyping the three hour Slammy Award Show presentation of Monday Night Raw plays followed by the usual Raw opening video. After the pyrotechnics go off on top of the stage, Justin Roberts is standing in the middle of the ring and announces “Ladies and Gentleman, your new WWE Champion… “The Celtic Warrior” Sheamus” Sheamus appears through the entrance curtain with the WWE Championship draped over his shoulder as he wears a flashy suit for the first time on screen. The crowd boo as Sheamus makes his way to the ring and once inside, the new WWE Champion begins talking in Gaelic which gets him more boos. Sheamus stops and says that you stupid Americans don’t deserve to listen to the proud Gaelic Language and that they don’t even deserve to be here live to see Sheamus with the WWE Championship. Sheamus puts over his homeland of Ireland, saying the Slammy’s should have been hosted there but quickly changes the subject to the former WWE Champion, John Cena. Sheamus says that John Cena made the mistake of doubting that he could lose the WWE Championship at TLC and it came back to haunt him, Sheamus continues by saying that tonight, Cena is up for Superstar of the year which is a disgrace in its own right but the even bigger disgrace is that Sheamus has to settle with being in the breakout star of the year. Suddenly, the crowd pop as the theme music of the former WWE Champion plays through the PA System. Once inside the ring, Cena immediately takes of his hat and shirt and tells Sheamus that he knows when a loss is classed as a loss and Sheamus make have gotten the win via putting him through the table but until Sheamus pins John Cena for the three count or makes him submit, Cena can not take Sheamus seriously as World Champion of WWE. Sheamus suddenly looks angry as he drops the WWE Championship to the canvas. Sheamus attempts to hit his bicycle kick out of no where like he has done in the past but this time, John Cena side stepped it. Cena lifts Sheamus up in to the air for the Attitude Adjustment but Sheamus slides down Cena’s back. Suddenly, the wrestling holds stop as Cena and Sheamus breaks in to a fisticuffs brawl, neither man looking to be fazed by the others punches. Suddenly, security and referees hit the ring to separate the two men as Cena is yelling that he is coming to get his WWE Championship Back. Monday Night Raw returns from a commercial break and the three man announce team of Jerry Lawler, Michael Cole and Matt Striker announce the matches that are happening tonight which includes the “Superstar of the Year Tournament” where Undertaker will do battle with Randy Orton while John Cena battles CM Punk in semi final matches where the winners from each of those matches will go on to the finals and battle for the right to be called Superstar of the Year. The cameras turn to the ring where Justin Roberts once again is standing in the middle of the ring, he announces the Guest Host of the night, Dennis Miller who appears on the stage at the Slammy Awards section. Miller runs down some jokes that get mixed reactions from the crowd before introducing to present the award for Tag Team of the Year, a pair of WWE Hall of Famers and wrestled together at the very first Wrestlemania, The Iron Sheik and Nikolai Volkoff. Sheik and Nikolai get a decent reaction and Sheik does all the talking about how Iran and Russia are number one. Nikolai interrupts Sheik to simply say “The nominees for WWE Tag Team of the Year are…” A video package then plays highlighting the teams who have been nominated and following the video, Nikolai opens the envelope and calls out the names “Chris Jericho & The Big Show” The team being referred too as “Jerri-Show” make their way to the platform and Chris Jericho puts over how dominant they have been this year. Chris Jericho thanks his former partner, Edge for being selfish enough to get injured allowing Jericho to get a far superior partner in The Big Show. Big Show takes control of the mic and tells everyone that no matter what, Jerri-Show will once again be the Unified WWE Tag Team Champions to which Jericho tells Big Show that he doesn’t know how right he is because he has used the opportunity to revoke their rematch clause announcing that tonight it will be D Generation X defending the Unified Tag Team Championships against Jerri-Show in a rematch from last night. 1) William Regal, Vladimir Kozlov, Ezekiel Jackson & Zack Ryder defeated. Christian, Shelton Benjamin, Yoshi Tatsu & Goldust. Despite being Monday Night Raw, the stars of Tuesday Night ECW kick off the in ring action of the show in a big eight man tag team match. While the Ruthless Roundtable of Regal, Kozlov and Jackson haven’t been on the same page in recent weeks, the other team seemed to be in even worse shape as both Christian and Shelton Benjamin were selling their battle scars of the ladder match from last nights TLC Pay-Per-View. Yoshi Tatsu and Tommy Dreamer tried their best to carry their clearly hurt partners load but to no luck as the Ruthless Roundtable and Zack Ryder managed to pick up the victory despite more tension between Kozlov and Jackson as Zack Ryder took advantage of a hurt Shelton Benjamin and got the three count following the Zack Attack. The aftermath of the match saw Ezekiel and Kozlov push each other several times with William Regal getting between the two of them to separate the confrontation. Suddenly, the entrance music of ECW General Manager, Tiffany plays across the PA System as she appears on the stage. Tiffany announces that she has had enough of Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson going at it every week and that tomorrow night, they will face each other in a singles match on ECW. The cameras turn to the Slammy Awards platform where Guest Host, Dennis Miller announces to present the award for Breakout Star of the Year, WWE Hall of Famer, Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat. Steamboat makes his way to the platform and talks about how in 2009, many superstars made not only their debut, but made a statement to the WWE Universe. A video then plays highlighting the nominees and after the video, Ricky opens the envelope and announces that the winner of Breakout Star of the year is the new WWE Champion, Sheamus. Sheamus makes his way to the platform still in his suit and with the WWE Championship draped over his shoulder. Sheamus talks about how there has been many Hall of Famers, Ricky Steamboat included who have never held the WWE Champion which he now has. Sheamus says that he travelled all the way from Ireland to prove he was not only the best in the WWE but the best in the world. Sheamus raises the Award in to the air and yells something in Gaelic but is once again interrupted by the entrance music of John Cena. Cena appears through the curtain but only grins at Sheamus as he makes his way to the ring for the upcoming match against CM Punk in the “Superstar of the Year Tournament” 2) CM Punk defeated. John Cena via Disqualification to advance in the Superstar of the Year Tournament. These two faced each other at the Thanksgiving Special just weeks prior and in all honesty, that was a better match than this. CM Punk hardly got any offence in as John Cena was a lot more aggressive than usual, beating CM Punk all over the ring. CM Punk eventually got some momentum going and even connected with the running knee lift in the corner followed by the running bulldog but Cena countered the Go To Sleep in to the Back Suplex/Five Knuckle Shuffle combination. Cena was about to call for the Attitude Adjustment when the new WWE Champion, Sheamus appeared on the titantron. Sheamus got Cena’s attention and told him that as long as he’s the WWE Champion, John Cena will never ever get near the championship belt again. Cena suddenly got even more aggressive and left the ring to get a steel chair. Once inside, he swung it like a baseball bat, the chair smashing of CM Punk’s head. The referee was forced to call for the bell and John Cena was disqualified. Cena suddenly realized that Sheamus had gotten in to his had and he was shocked at what he did. Cena dropped the chair and left the ring, walking up the entrance ramp disgusted with himself. The cameras turn back to the Slammy Awards platform as Dennis Miller announces to present the award for “Shocker of the Year” Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix. Marella and Phoenix make their way to the platform and have a few moments to talk about their previous relationship. Santino makes a few funnies before Beth says “the nominees are” followed by a video package of all the shocking moments that took place during the year. Following the video, Beth Phoenix and Santino Announce the winner of the award to be CM Punk defeating Jeff Hardy on Smackdown in a steel cage match forcing Jeff Hardy to retire. CM Punk who was still in the ring selling the chair shot to the head suddenly realized that he had just won the award waved to the back. Luke Gallows made his way down to the ring in a somewhat jog and lifted CM Punk in to a fireman carry. Luke carries CM Punk up to the platform where Punk accepts the award still placed over Gallows shoulder saying the only person he has to thank is Jeff Hardy for being such a sad, pathetic waste of space that it was only to easy to eliminate him from the WWE. CM Punk waves goodbye to the crowd as Luke Gallows carries him away through the curtain. 3) Kofi Kingston defeated. Cody Rhodes (with Ted DiBiase) via Pinfall. Despite losing the night before against “The Viper” Randy Orton, the enthusiastic high energy Kofi Kingston was still smiling as he made his way to the ring. The match was the shortest of the night thus far but was still quite back n forth. The finish of the match eventually arrived with Ted DiBiase trying to get involved in the match by standing on the ring apron only for Cody Rhodes to knock him off by mistake. Cody Rhodes turned around looking to attack Kofi but Kofi was already waiting for him and connected with the Trouble in Paradise which was enough to give Kofi Kingston the three count. Kofi jumped around the ring, celebrating his victory and quickly left as Ted DiBiase slid in to the ring. The cameras turn to the back where Chris Jericho walks in to the office of Dennis Miller. He thanks Dennis for being polite to him and respecting him unlike the other Guest Hosts who have been obnoxious and rude from the start of the show. Dennis says that when he watches the show on a Monday night, it’s the parts involving Chris Jericho that sucks the energy from the show. Miller tells Jericho that the only reason their rematch was granted for tonight was so that D-Generation X can once again kick their ass and send Chris Jericho away from Raw for good. Jericho looks angry but the segment fades to black. The cameras turn back to the Slammy Awards platform where Dennis Miller announces to present the “Match of the Year” Award is WWE Hall of Famer, Ric Flair. Flair got a big pop as he made his way to the platform wearing a flashy suit and once he got on the microphone, Flair put over the fact that at the last years awards he and Shawn Michaels won this exact award for their match at Wrestlemania 24. Flair then says “the nominees are” and a video package plays highlighting the matches. Following the video, Flair opens the envelope, smiles and announces the winner to be Shawn Michaels vs. The Undertaker from Wrestlemania 25. “The Heart Break Kid” Shawn Michaels makes his way to the platform and hugs his good friend, Ric Flair. Shawn accepts the award on behalf of him and The Undertaker and suggests to The Undertaker that anytime he wants another match, all he has to do is ask. Shawn thanks everyone and makes his way through the curtain. Following another commercial the cameras are still focused on the Slammy Awards platform as Dennis Miller announces to present the “Raw Guest Host of the Year” award is none other than the owner of World Wrestling Entertainment, Mr. McMahon. McMahon says that several months ago he created the Guest Host situation that Raw has had and that some of the Guest hosts have been better than others. Lawler laughed on commentary as if this was a shot at Dennis Miller whose jokes aren’t exactly getting over with the live audience. Vince then says the nominees are and a video package plays highlighting the previous guest hosts. Following the video package, Vince opens the envelope and announces the winner to be Bob Barker. A video plays on the titantron of Bob Barker excepting the award and thanking the WWE for allowing him to be a Guest Host. 4 ) The Undertaker defeated. Randy Orton via Submission to advance in the Superstar of the Year Tournament. Randy Orton and the current World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker have had their battles in the past including a singles match at Wrestlemania and even a Hell in a Cell match. This match had the crowd hyped as it continued this feud while also gave the Raw fans a rare treat to see The Undertaker, a main Friday Night Smackdown superstar. The match itself was very back in forth and even had the spot from their Wrestlemania match where Randy Orton countered the Choke Slam attempt from Undertaker in to the RKO. It still wasn’t enough to get the three count however and the match continued, The Undertaker surprised everyone by quickly countering a second RKO attempt and nearly as fast, locking in the Hells Gate. Orton had no option but to tap out and the match was over. The cameras turn to the Slammy Award platform as Dennis Miller announces to present the award for “Extreme Moment of the Year” former ECW Champion, Tommy Dreamer. Dreamer says that being from the land of extreme he knows a thing or two about extreme moments and that now we will honour one of 2009’s extreme moments with this slammy. He says the nominees are and a video package plays highlighting those moments. Following the video package Tommy announces the winner to be Jeff Hardy hitting the huge Swanton Bomb on CM Punk at Summerslam from the ladder through the announce table. Matt Hardy comes out to accept the award on behalf of his brother and claims that that WWE has not seen the last of the “Charismatic Enigma” known as Jeff Hardy. 5 - WWE Unified Tag Team Championships) Jerri-Show defeated. D-Generation X by disqualification. In what would turn out to be the shortest match of the night, Triple H and the now 2x match of the year winner, Shawn Michaels out played Chris Jericho and the Big Show in a ploy that was used just to get Chris Jericho of Monday Night Raw for good. As the opening bell rang, Triple H and Shawn Michaels pushed the referee to the ground in a playful fashion but the referee still didn’t like it and disqualified the champions announcing that Jericho and Big Show had won the match however D-Generation X are still the Unified Tag Team Champions. The cameras turn to the Slammy Award platform where Dennis Miller announces to present the award for “Oh My” moment of the year is Ron Simmons, Ron doesn’t say anything other than “The nominees are” followed by a video package of all the moments. Following the video package, Ron Simmons announce that the winner is none other than Michael Cole for puking over Chris Jericho at the 10th anniversary of Smackdown show. Michael Cole goes nuts at the commentators table and hugs both Jerry Lawler and Matt Striker before running up to the platform. Cole hugs Simmons and pretty much rips in to Jim Ross saying the era of Boomer Sooner is over, now it’s the era of Vintage. Michael leaves through the curtain and Ron gives the fans a “Damn” to close the segment. 6) Evan Bourne, The Hurricane and John Morrison defeated. Chavo Guerrero, The Ripper and Drew McIntyre via Pinfall. All three brands were being represented in this six man tag in what also featured the continuation of the feud between John Morrison and the newly crowned Intercontinental Champion, Drew McIntyre. The match was back n forth and pretty fast paced at certain points before the finish that saw Chavo Guerrero eventually get pinned following a Shooting Star Press from Evan Bourne. After the match, Evan Bourne, The Hurricane and John Morrison celebrated their win but were quickly attacked by the Ripper and Drew McIntyre. Evan Bourne was quickly thrown out of the ring as The Ripper and Drew McIntyre hit the Jack Hammer and Double Arm DDT on Hurricane and Morrison. The heels stood tall in the ring despite suffering the loss. The cameras turn to the back where Josh Matthews is standing by with the WWE United States Champion, The Miz. Miz says that it’s a damn right shame that he isn’t nominated for any awards tonight but despite that, he doesn’t care. He doesn’t care because he knows that the next Pay-Per-View is the Royal Rumble meaning that once again, 30 men will do battle to find out who gets to be in the Wrestlemania 26 main event and challenge for one of the World Championships. Miz says it doesn’t matter about the 29 other superstars because all that matters is that The Miz will eliminate whoever gets in his way to win the match, go on to Wrestlemania 26 and win the championship because he’s the Miz! And he’s awesome! A video plays hyping up tomorrow’s ECW that will feature the showdown between Ruthless Roundtable members, Ezekiel Jackson and Vladimir Kozlov. The video also hints that the ECW Championship situation will be addressed involving the Royal Rumble Pay-Per-View. The cameras turn to the Slammy Award platform where Dennis Miller announces to present the “Diva of the year” Award are the tag team of MVP and Mark Henry. MVP and Mark Henry come to the platform and talk about how the WWE Divas are some of the most beautiful yet powerful woman in the world. MVP then says “And the nominees are” as a video package plays highlighting the WWE Diva’s. Following the video, Mark Henry announces the winner to be Maria who comes out stunned. She thanks everyone of the WWE Universe who voted for her and vowed one day in 2010 to become a champion. Main Event) CM Punk (with Luke Gallows) defeated. The Undertaker via Pinfall to become the Superstar of the Year. The main event of the evening saw the feud of CM Punk vs. The Undertaker continue as the two men who had been battling each other just months prior found themselves on opposite sides of the ring once again. Punk and Undertaker went back n forth despite CM Punk selling the chair shot from John Cena earlier in the show to the point that his head was now bandaged. Punk and Undertaker battled for a good fifteen minutes before the show was clearly coming to an end because of time to which point, the Undertaker’s opponent from last night, Batista made his appearance to ring side and stepped on to the ring apron. Undertaker tried to knock Batista of the apron but Batista jumped off in time. At this point, Luke Gallows slid in to the ring, distracting the referee as CM Punk hit the Go To Sleep on Undertaker following by Batista sliding in to the ring and hitting a Spine Buster to the World Champion. Batista left the ring as Punk covered the World Champion to get the three count. Punk celebrated as if he’d just won the world series, running around the ring but suddenly the lights went out and a gong was heard. When the lights came back on Punk looked around expecting to see The Undertaker but there was no one there. However on the entrance ramp, Batista turned around to be met by the Undertaker to lifted Batista upside down and connected with a Tombstone Piledriver right on the ramp. The show comes to an end with CM Punk looking on as The Undertaker stared down CM Punk from the entrance ramp.[/size] |

Can't say I'm surprised that you're doing a diary starting off with Sheamus as champion. Good opening segment, more effective than what Sheamus did in real life, which was basically nothing. Ok, wondering what will happen with JeriShow. ECW opening the show match-wise is ok since people were watching at the time; Ryder getting the win is cool. Smart to advertise Zeke/Kozlov in front of an actual audience. Cena getting DQ'd is fine as it showed aggression. I assume that means Punk is winning the tournament. Like the idea of Santino & Beth doing an award, nice touch there. Kofi getting the win is good to build him up. Jeircho segment was the same as last night, no comment on that. Glad you didn't already set HBK/Taker for Wrestlemania. Surprised you had a finish to Orton/Taker, although two non-finishes I guess would have been lame. I expect Punk to defeat Taker in a screwjob. Ok so same JeriShow stuff as real life. Glad Miz got in promo time. I knew you'd give it to Punk. I understand the thinking, but it's pretty unrealistic. Anyway, ending to the show was good. Show was fine, just wish it wasn't as similar to the real life one.

December 15th 2009
Tuesday Night ECW comes on the air with the usual ECW Opening video highlighting the stars of the brand followed by the usual pyro display by the stage. The cameras turn to the commentator’s table where Josh Matthews and Bryon Saxton welcome everybody to the show before a graphic appears on the screen showing that tonight, Vladimir Kozlov will do battle against former ally, Ezekiel Jackson. Suddenly, the entrance music of Goldust plays across the PA system as the opening match is about to get under way. 1) Zack Ryder (with Rosa Mendes) defeated. Goldust via Pinfall. Zack Ryder was getting back on the winning side of things after pinning Shelton Benjamin on Monday Night Raw, winning the match for his team and now he came in to this match confident. Rosa was looking as great as ever and definitely distracted her own man during the match. The match itself was short but sweet with some fun back n forth action. The finish eventually arrived with Zack Ryder pulling the padding of the turnbuckle causing the referee to try and fix it. During this time, Rosa threw one of her high heel shoes in to the ring, Ryder catching it. Goldust attempted to hit the Curtain Call but Ryder landed on his feet and smacked Goldust across the face with the heel of the shoe then throwing it out of the ring before hooking the leg to get the three count. The cameras turn to the back where Tiffany is talking with a man who Tiffany refers to as “Bryan” Suddenly, William Regal barges in to the room and demands to know why Tiffany has booked Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson in a match tonight when he is trying to keep the peace. William interrupts himself by turning to face the newcomer and asks “and who the bloody hell are you sunshine?” The man introduces himself as Bryan Danielson but William turns back to Tiffany and asks that the match be cancelled. Tiffany tells Regal that the match won’t be cancelled as the crowd are really looking forward to it. Tiffany then says that not only will Ezekiel Jackson and Vladimir Kozlov do battle tonight but William Regal will be the special referee. Regal eyes suddenly widen and he tells Tiffany that she is doing a horrible job as General Manager. Regal leaves as the unknown Bryan waves him goodbye. The cameras turn to another location where the menacing Vance Archer is making his way to the entrance curtain for the following match. 2) Vance Archer defeated. Shelton Benjamin via Pinfall. The undefeated newcomer, Vance Archer looked strong as he defeated his first “non local” in the ring. Despite defeating a name like Shelton Benjamin, Shelton was still selling the injuries from the ladder match which was a bit odd seeing as neither D-Generation X or Jerri-Show were selling their injuries. The match was around ten minutes long and eventually finished with Shelton looking strong and calling for the pay dirt only for him to go down to one knee selling hurt ribs before jumping in the air for the pay dirt. The hurt ribs cost Shelton as Vance jumped in the air and kicked Shelton in the gut, knocking Shelton back down to the canvas. Archer then dragged Shelton to his feet and quickly hit the Reverse DDT which was enough to give Vance the three count. The cameras turn to the commentator's table where Josh Matthews and Bryon Saxton talk as a graphic appears on screen saying that on Superstars this thursday, The Hurricane will face The Ripper. If The Ripper wins, he will be apart of the ECW roster. The cameras turn to the titantron where a “Raw Rebound” video plays highlighting the main parts of Monday Night Raw last night. The video shows John Cena and the new WWE Champion, Sheamus brawling in the ring to start the show as well as who won what slammy and the finals of the Superstar of the year tournament where CM Punk defeated the Undertaker thanks to some outside interference from Luke Gallows and Batista. The video ends with The Undertaker hitting the Tombstone Piledriver on the entrance ramp on Batista. 3) Vladimir Kozlov vs. Ezekiel Jackson went to a no contest with William Regal as special referee. The main event of the evening saw the Ruthless Roundtable do battle against each other in a really short match if you could even call it that. There was only a few minutes left on the show and William Regal separated the two men every time they grappled in the middle of the ring. Eventually, the two men lost it and began to attack Regal. Both men hit their finishers, despite them being near the exact same thing and surprisingly left the ring together. the scene then goes fades to black with Regal slowly getting to his feet looking confused as Kozlov and Jackson stand on the stage with their arms raised in the air. After coming back from a commercial, Tony Atlas introduces the star of the Abraham Washington show, Abraham Washington. Abe comes out and does his usual fun n games that makes Tony Atlas laugh before introducing his guest, the ECW Champion, Christian. Christian makes his way to the sofa and tells Abe that he just get a return pass for this place as he’s been here three times now. The two men talk about the gruelling ladder match against Shelton Benjamin at TLC. Christian says he is still hurting and so is Shelton clearly and that he hopes to be back in perfect shape so he can defend the ECW Championship once again. Abe says that Christian must be in such bad shape right now that even Tony Atlas could beat him for the title to which Tony responds with “Yeah,, and I suck” before laughing. Abe then suddenly gets serious and says that he thinks he could even defeat Christian for the ECW Championship. Abe starts to go a little too far with his taunts calling Christian a punk forcing Christian to stand up. Suddenly, a stool smashed across Christian’s back as Tony Atlas swung the stool he was sitting on, attacking Christian. Abe and Tony began kicking Christian before Abe brings Christian to his feet only to plant him down to the steel with a DDT. Abe and Tony leave as medics come out to check on Christian as ECW goes off the air.[/size] |

-Ryder/Goldust sounds like a great opener, I've loved Goldust's ECW run and putting over Ryder was the right move
-I liked that I saw Bryan Danielson, but I think maybe some hype videos or at least a match on his debut would've been the way to go
-I hate Vance Archer with a passion. Hated Lance Hoyt & I hate Archer even more. Please stop his push soon
-I'm interested in seeing where you go with this Ripper stuff
-Shocked you went with Kozlov & Jackson sticking together, wonder where it goes
-Tony Atlas' "Yeah..and I suck" comment was pure gold. Surprised to see Abe & Atlas attack Christian, but it should lead to good things. Never saw Abe in the ring so I wonder if he can have a good match
Solid ECW, some things I liked, like the opener, the Abe Washington show & Kozlov & Jackson sticking together. I didn't like Archer winning and Danielson not getting a better debut. Can't wait for more though, hope this lasts.

Goldust/Ryder sounded like a good opener. The ending sounded pretty cool. I love the pairing of Ryder and Rosa Mendes. Bryan Danielson/William Regal feud? Sounds cool. Like that Tiffany wouldn't cancel the scheduled main event. I hate Vance Archer. Shocked that Zeke and Kozlov stuck together. I like it, though. Not really keen on The Abe Washington Show closing the show, to be honest. Seriously hope you don't have Abe/Christian and hopefully someone "paid" Abe and Atlas to do it.

 December 17th 2009
After the usual Superstars opening video and pyro display, the cameras turn to the titantron where a graphic appears showing that tonight in the main event, it’ll be Matt Hardy vs. Luke Gallows. Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler start of commentary as Carlito vs. Evan Bourne kicks off the in ring action.
1) Evan Bourne defeated. Carlito via Pinfall. The opening match saw the recently returned Carlito take on the high flying Evan Bourne. The match was fast paced from the start and was pretty back in forth. After some great action in a pretty short match, Carlito caught Evan on the top rope as he was planning a moonsault and attempted to deliver the Back Stabber from the top rope. Evan managed to hang on causing Carlito to fall on to the canvas and Bourne quickly took advantage by turning around and hitting the Shooting Star Press.
The cameras turn to the back where Josh Matthews is standing with the current ECW Champion, Christian. Josh says that two days ago on ECW, Christian was viciously attacked by Abraham Washington and Tony Atlas while being apart of the Abraham Washington show. Christian says that he knows something isn’t right about the situation as ECW General Manager, Tiffany has told him that Abraham Washington doesn’t have a wrestling contract. Christian says that he is going to find out why Abe attacked him on ECW.
The cameras turn to the titantron where The Ripper along with The Beautiful Nightmare are shown making their way to the entrance curtain, they fight for a ECW contract, up next.
2) The Hurricane defeated. The Ripper (with The Beautiful Nightmare) via Pinfall. ECW’s match of the evening saw the battle of the Super Hero and Super Villain as the clearly Paul Burchill was hoping to defeat The Hurricane so he could return to ECW after losing a Career vs. Mask match just weeks prior. The match itself was just like their previous encounters, short but sweet with Burchill coming off much stronger but Hurricane’s cunning being too much for the Englishman. The finish of the match eventually arrived with The Hurricane countering a Jack Hammer attempt in to a backslide pin which was enough to get the three count. Following the bell, Burchill was complaining to the ref while on his knees and The Hurricane connected with the Shining Wizard out of nowhere, kicking the mask of his face. Burchill attempted to cover his face to no luck and the cat was out of the bag.
The cameras turn to a titantron where the same Raw Rebound video that played on ECW plays now, once again the video highlights the brawl between John Cena and new WWE Champion, Sheamus as well as all of the Slammy Award winners. The video then ends with CM Punk defeating The Undertaker with outside interference from not only Luke Gallows but Batista to become Superstar of the Year.
A graphic appears on the screen saying that tomorrow night on Friday Night Smackdown in a huge six man tag match, World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker will team up with Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy to face the team of CM Punk, Luke Gallows and Batista.
Main Event) Luke Gallows (with CM Punk) defeated. Matt Hardy via Pinfall. The main event of the evening saw Matt Hardy do battle against the recently “fixed” Festus now known as Luke Gallows with the man who cured him of his addiction, the 2009 Superstar of the Year, CM Punk. The match was obviously much slower than the previous matches but was still a fun watch as Hardy attempted to chop down the much bigger Luke Gallows. Hardy was becoming slightly too much for Luke to handle so CM Punk climbed the apron and ripped the padding of the top turnbuckle. Matt Hardy attempted to hit the Twist of Fate on Luke only for Gallows to push Hardy away sending him chest first in to the turnbuckle. Luke quickly turned Hardy around and slammed him with the “Twelve Steps” a inverted full nelson lifted in to a spine buster. Gallows hooked the leg and got the three count too close the show. |

 December 18th 2009
A highlights video package plays highlighting the main Smackdown moments that took place at TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs where Drew McIntyre defeated. John Morrison to become the new WWE Intercontinental Champion along with The Undertaker defeating Batista to retain the World Heavyweight Championship following the match being restarted by Smackdown General Manager, Theodore Long after Batista delivered a low blow to Undertaker. Following the video, the usual Smackdown opening video plays which is followed by the usual pyro display by the stage. A graphic appears on screen showing the main event match as Batista will team up with CM Punk and Luke Gallows to face Matt Hardy, Rey Mysterio and the World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker.
The entrance music of Dave Batista plays across the PA system as “The Animal” makes his way down to the ring with a microphone in his hand. Once inside, Batista says that at the pay-per-view this past Sunday, he was screwed out of the World Heavyweight Championship because of General Manager, Theodore Long. Dave continues by saying that he had The Undertaker pinned for the three count but because of politics in the back, the match was forced to be restarted. Batista then demands that he gets another shot at the World Heavyweight Championship but is interrupted by the entrance music of Rey Mysterio. Batista’s former best friend makes his way down to the ring and once inside, Rey talks about how Batista had his opportunity and failed, despite having to bend the rules. Rey says it’s time for someone else to get the opportunity to face the Undertaker at the next PPV, The Royal Rumble. This time it is Rey Mysterio is interrupted as the entrance music of CM Punk hit’s the PA system as Punk and Luke Gallows appear from the curtain. Punk talks while making his way down the ramp about how Rey Mysterio is being sold to the fans as the Cinderella story or life long underdog. Punk laughs and says Rey Mysterio is just as bad as Jeff Hardy and he himself has been suspended multiple times in the last year for obvious reasons. By this time, CM Punk and Luke Gallows are in the ring and Punk says that if anyone should face the Undertaker at the Rumble it should be him as he not only defeated the Undertaker “cleanly” on Monday Night Raw, he also became the Superstar of the Year in the process. Batista interrupts Punk and tells him that the number one contendership can be solved at another time, right now their team is in the ring and one of their opponents is on their own. Punk smiles as the three men suddenly pounce on Rey Mysterio. The crowd suddenly give a small pop as Matt Hardy runs down to the ring to help his partner but is quickly out numbered. Suddenly, the lights go out in the arena as the famous gong is heard across the PA system. When the lights come back on, The Undertaker is standing in the middle of the ring causing Punk, Gallows and Batista to retreat from the ring. Matt Hardy checks on Rey Mysterio as Undertaker stares down the three men on the outside of the ring.
Following a commercial break, Matt Striker says he has breaking news as he’s been told from the back that in the six man tag match tonight, if the team of Undertaker, Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy win then next week, Matt Hardy will face Rey Mysterio in a number one contendership match for the World Heavyweight Championship. However, if the team of Batista, CM Punk and Luke Gallows wins then next week they’ll face in a triple threat match with the winner facing The Undertaker at Royal Rumble for the World Heavyweight Championship.
1) Drew McIntyre & Dolph Ziggler defeated. John Morrison & R Truth via Pinfall. The opening match for Friday Night Smackdown saw former Intercontinental Champion, John Morrison and tag team partner for the evening, R Truth do battle against the man who chased the Intercontinental Championship for half of the year, Dolph Ziggler and the new Intercontinental Champion, Drew McIntyre. Despite the fact, Ziggler craved the title so much, he seemed to be working well the McIntyre, the new holder of the belt. Morrison and Truth were not a half bad team either and the four men put together a nice fast paced match that had plenty of back in forth action. The finish to the match eventually arrived with Morrison hitting an impressive suicide dive to the outside of the ring, taking out Drew McIntyre but also hurting himself in the process. Truth leaned over the ropes to check on his partner but took his eye of Dolph Ziggler who jumped from behind and slammed Truth down to the canvas with the Zig Zag which he followed by hooking the leg to get the three count. After the bell. Dolph grabbed the Intercontinental Championship and looked at it for a few moments before handing it to the rightful holder, Drew McIntyre.
The cameras turn to the back where Eric Escobar is talking sweet with the lovely Layla. Suddenly, Vickie Guerrero appears from behind Escobar and tells him that he doesn’t have time to chatting him slappers backstage as he has a match coming up. Eric says that he isn’t booked for tonight and Vickie says she has just made the match so he better get ready because if he isn’t in the ring in five minutes, he’s fired.
The cameras turn to the titantron where a reply from Monday Night Raw plays showing Chris Jericho being banished from Raw as Jerri-Show failed to reclaim the WWE Unified Tag Team Championships. After the video clip, a graphic appears on the screen saying tonight, Chris Jericho will be in singles action as he faces “The Big Red Machine” Kane.
2) Mike Knox defeated. Eric Escobar via pinfall. Eric Escobar had a “jobbers” entrance per say as he was already in the ring when the cameras turned to the ringside area. Escobar was wrestling in average clothes as he didn’t have time to get changed and his eyes widened when it turned out his opponent was the sinister Mike Knox. The match itself was pretty slow but Knox has been becoming super impressive lately bringing in new moves in to his arsenal. After not only hitting the cross body which crushed Escobar in to the canvas, Knox whipped Escobar in to the ropes and on the rebound hit a picture perfect drop kick, both feet planting Escobar in the jaw. The match was over pretty quickly as Knox then connected with his finishing move the Knox Out which was enough to give Knox the three count. As Mike Knox appeared on the titantron, Vickie Guerrero walked through the curtain and smiled as she looked at her former boyfriend in the ring, hurting after a physical beat down.
The cameras turn to the back where Mickie James and Maria are talking while Maria is holding her “Diva of the Year” Slammy. Mickie is congratulating Maria on winning the award and tells her that she deserves it but suddenly the WWE Woman’s Champion, Michelle McCool interrupts the conversation telling the woman that Maria doesn’t deserve nothing. Michelle says that she heard Maria’s little speech she made while accepting the slammy that she said she’s going to win gold in 2010. Michelle laughs and tells Maria that she will never be a champion, not in 2010, not ever. McCool then tells Maria that she’ll see her in the ring later on tonight.
The cameras turn to another location where CM Punk and Luke Gallows are talking, Punk says that when they win tonight, he doesn’t mind if Luke wins the triple threat match next week but they should do everything in their power to make sure Batista doesn’t win that match. Suddenly, Batista walks in to the ring and Punk suddenly stops talking he acts really friendly towards Batista and tells him that when they win tonight, he knows they will have a great triple threat match next week and wishes him luck. Punk and Gallows then walk off as Batista has a grin on his face as if he knows what they were talking about in the first place.
3) The Hart Dynasty (with Natalya Neidhart) defeated. Slam Master J & Jimmy Wang Yang via Pinfall. This surprisingly wasn’t a squash match but it wasn’t very long either. Wang Yang started the match strong surprising Tyson Kid with a kick that nearly finished the match right there but shortly after, Kidd got the tag in to David Hart Smith who quickly used the power he has to his advantage. After some fun action that included a Gorilla Press/Spring Board Dropkick combination from the Hart Dynasty, David Hart Smith eventually finished the match by connecting with the Running Powerslam on Jimmy Wang Yang which was enough to get the three count. Following the bell, Natalya entered the ring and kicked Slam Master J out of it with a boot to the head. The Hart Dynasty stood tall in the ring. Natalya got on the microphone and challenged D-Generation X to come to Smackdown and defend their Unified Tag Team Championships next week on the Christmas Day episode of Smackdown.
The cameras turn to the back where Josh Matthews is standing by with one half of the former Unified WWE Tag Team Champions, Chris Jericho. Chris Jericho says that tonight, a new journey begins for him. Jericho says it was nice knowing he could appear on all three brands and be the most dominate superstar along with The Big Show but the tag team championships can only do so much for your career. Jericho says now that he’s back on the one brand, he’s making his mission to reclaim the World Heavyweight Championship from The Undertaker. Jericho says that it all starts tonight when he defeats The Undertaker’s brother, Kane.
The cameras turn to another location where Rey Mysterio is getting iced by the doctors, Matt Hardy comes in and asks Rey if he’ll be alright for tonight to which Rey replies by saying he’s fine. Matt says he hopes so as when they win tonight he wants Rey to be at his best for next week when they go one on one to find out who faces The Undertaker at the Royal Rumble for the World Heavyweight Championship. Rey and Hardy shake hands with Rey telling Hardy that next week, they’ll steal the show.
4) Chris Jericho defeated. Kane via Count-out. The biggest match of the night thus far and the crowd were really in to it. The match length wasn’t as good as one could hope but the eventual finish kept both men looking strong. Kane dominated a lot of the match because of his overall size advantage but Chris Jericho at times managed to escape Kane’s claws by using dirty tactics such as eye rakes. The finish of the match eventually arrived with the brawl winding up on the outside of the ring were at the count of six, Kane lifted Chris Jericho in to the air for the Chokeslam only for Jericho to turn it in to a DDT, smashing Kane’s head in to the padded floor. It looked like it was going to be a double count-out but Jericho managed to dive in to the ring at nine leaving the referee no choice but to count the ten and declare Chris Jericho the winner of the match. Following the match, Jericho cut a promo on how he told everyone tonight was a new beginning for Chris Jericho and how he was going to win the World Heavyweight Championship. Jericho took his eye of Kane who slid back in to the ring appearing behind Jericho. Chris turned around slowly knowing what was waiting for him and gasped as Kane grabbed him by the throat, slamming him down to the canvas with the Chokeslam. Kane does his pyro taunt before leaving the ring as Jericho is out cold in the middle of the ring.
The cameras turn to the titantron where a short reply plays of the finish of the Woman’s Championship match from TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs. The footage shows Michelle McCool delivering a sickening kick to the head of Mickie James, which was enough to get the three count. Following the footage, the entrance music of Michelle McCool plays across the arena as the following match is about to get underway.
5) Maria (with Mickie James) defeated. Michelle McCool (with Layla) via Pinfall. What can really be said for this match? It was average for a diva’s match I suppose. Maria isn’t a great worker but can get by on what she has and Michelle McCool isn’t half bad at times either. Mickie James and Layla had quite a bit of interaction with each other during the match as well which ultimately led to the end of the match as Layla climbed the apron trying to distract the referee, The Referee ultimately told Layla to leave the ringside area but instead, Mickie James got involved and a cat fight broke out at ringside. Michelle McCool took her eye of Maria for just a second to see what was going on and Maria rolled Michelle up with the school girl and got the surprise three count. At this point, Mickie James broke free of the fight as Maria slid out of the ring. Maria and Mickie James celebrated on the entrance ramp as the Woman’s Champion looked on shocked in the ring at just being pinned by Maria.
The cameras turn to the commentators table where a graphic appears on the screen announcing that on the next episode of WWE Superstars, Finlay will be doing battle against Charlie Haas. Striker puts over both men saying it’s sure to be a hard hitting contest before a reply of the opening segment to the show plays to hype the main event match which is coming up next.
Main Event) The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio & Matt Hardy defeated. Batista, CM Punk & Luke Gallows via Pinfall. The main event of the evening featured some of the brand top stars with five of them hoping to face The Undertaker at the Royal Rumble for the World Heavyweight Championship. There was some great action during the match, especially when Rey Mysterio and CM Punk were in the ring. Despite Rey selling his attack from early, Rey still countered in great lucha style and managed to put together a fun match along with the other five men. The end of the match eventually arrived with CM Punk hitting the GTS on Matt Hardy but being confronted by Rey Mysterio, Batista charged across the ring looking to hit his former friend with the Spear only for Rey to jump over Batista causing him to spear his own partner, CM Punk. The Undertaker clotheslined Batista out of the ring as Mysterio and Hardy went on to hit a 619/Twist of Fate combination on Luke Gallows to pick up the victory. Following the bell, Hardy and Mysterio got their hands raised by the referee but both turned around only to receive a double Chokeslam from The Undertaker. Matt Striker put over that whether you’re friend or foe, Undertaker will do what he has too to keep the World Heavyweight Championship. Smackdown goes off the air with The Undertaker standing tall over Matt Hardy and Rey Mysterio one of which will face The Undertaker at Royal Rumble for the World Heavyweight Championship. |

I liked the opening segment of SmackDown. Not only does it set up the number one contenders race, but it also builds to the main event. Good opening tag match, and I'm liking that Ziggler is getting back into the title race, hopefully this doesn't mean Morrison is getting pushed out though. Nice to see Knox getting the win, although I'm hoping that Escobar is going to be given something more than just the feud with Vickie. Nice to see the Hart Dynasty getting the win and a potential title shot. Jericho going over is a good move, and the count out finish doesn't damage Kane's momentum too much either. Decent Women's match, although I'm really hoping Maria doesn't get anywhere near the Women's title. Solid main event, although if I'm honest I'd have preferred the heels to win. I just can't get excited about a Taker vs. Matt/ Mysterio match at all.

-I hope that you keep CM Punk in the main event picture and please let this opening segment plant the seeds for Punk/Mysterio at 'Mania
-The number one contender stipulation for the main event is great
-Liked the heels winning the opener, hope to see Dolph as a future Intercontinental Champion though
-Knox over Escobar works as Vickie's trying to make his life hell. Don't like either guy though
-McCool telling Maria that she didn't deserve the Slammy is a good move
-I liked the Punk/Gallows/Batista segment
-Anytime the Hart Dynasty wins, I mark. Don't see the Dynasty beating DX next week, but I hope you bring in Bret Hart and have that lead them to beating DX, which would be huge for them
-I hope to see Jericho go for the World Title and eventually win it
-Interesting to have Maria defeat McCool, wonder where this goes
-I liked the main event and Matt/Mysterio should be good next week, but I'm not sure how much I will like a match between either of them & 'Taker. It's a new match regardless though which I like
Another good show, keep it up

Main event looks good could do without Luke and Hardy, great write up on the opener never expected al 3 to attack Rey, big stips on the 6 man tag, nice tag match the heels desevered the win, Knox win hopefully means a mini push as a midcard monster, the tag match sounded good it was a good match last time they fought, DX/Harts sounds like a great Xmas treat, Strange Y2J/Kane match a small feud should be good to put Y2J back in the Main Event scene, meh divas match, Haas/Finlay sounds good and maybe even a Haas win, I don't see Hardy winning next week but it would be cool either way you got a good ME for the Rumble, good luck and keep this up.

ECW: Ryder over Goldust works. Like the idea involving the Roundtable, and introducing Danielson that way is interesting. Big win for Archer there, that hurts Shelton though. Interesting that Kozlov & Jackson attacked Regal, not sure where you can go with that, but I'm certainly intrigued. Not sure how I feel about that ending. Has he even wrestled yet? I'm interested though. Pretty good show, def really interesting overall.
SD: Good opening segment, Punk getting time after his award makes sense. Decent opening match, knew you'd put the heels over. Potential push for Knox is interesting. Realistic for McCool to be bitter that Maria won the award and not her, I could see that happening in real life. DX vs. Hart Dynasty should be good stuff. I figure you won't bury Hart Dynasty like WWE would. Jericho/Kane was realistic, nobody got hurt so it's all good. Somewhat surprised Maria won, I guess a title shot is coming her way. Main event was pretty good, like the ending with Taker attacking the faces to show that he will protect his title.
Pretty good shows, I actually enjoyed ECW more, I thought that was very well done.

WWE RAW: Monday 14th December 2009...Alright, I'm hoping that this WWE diary of yours in particular sticks. Because you've had some amazing shows in 2009 diaries, but they never last long term. In the words of an old 'Rabid Wolverine'..."Prove me wrong". Great way to open up the show, but it pretty much lacked Dennis Miller and I wonder where he is. Sheamus as WWE Champion should be a transitional thing, as I can personally not see him doing anything positive on the Road to WrestleMania as WWE Champion. Hopefully John Cena does indeed regain the title at Royal Rumble, that'd be pretty good to see. Wow, Nikolai Volkoff and Iron Sheik hosting the Tag Team of the Year award is nice. Chris Jericho and Big Show getting the win was predictable, though. Nice ECW-represented eight man tag team bout to open up the show in the ring, and William Regal, Vladimir Kozlov, Ezekiel Jackson and Zack Ryder beating Christian, Shelton Benjamin, Yoshi Tatsu and Goldust is fine, and I am liking the tension that Zeke and Kozlov both have for one-another resuming here. CM Punk beating John Cena by disqualification? Wow, Cena losing sanity is intriguing to see. I like that idea a lot. Santino Marella and Beth Phoenix hosting the Shocker of the Year eaward is a nice touch. CM Punk and Luke Gallows as the winners of that was a good touch, I must say. Kofi Kingston beating Cody Rhodes is fine by me. Hope that feud ends at like, the January 4th RAW or the Royal Rumble. Can't see Ric Flair coming back to present 'Match of the Year' at all. He's too close to the competition, TNA to try this in my opinion. Shawn Michaels and The Undertaker winning that was no surprise. Vince McMahon and Dennis Miller on-screen together...you didn't mention Bret Hart? Shame of the night I think. Liked the micro-shot at Dennis Miller though. Glad to see you're still going to ride with the Guest Host concept. I'm a big fan of it, really. The Undertaker and CM Punk should have a grand main event, but my complaint is that this is RAW, and we're seeing two SmackDown main eventers compete for Superstar of the Year? You could have gotten away with Randy Orton facing CM Punk, actually. Matt Hardy getting the Extreme Moment of the Year award is good, where's the 'Oh My' award? I hate that you just went with RAW's occurence with DX easily retaining the WWE Unified Tag Team Championship by losing by disqualification. Jeri-Show should stay together, as otherwise, the tag division will be weakening. Yeah, there it is! Michael Cole should become somewhat obnoxious to Jerry Lawler. That would be hella interesting and different. If the Voice of RAW suddenly became like a Color Commentator and routing on heels. Evan Bourne, John Morrison and The Hurricane beating Chavo Guerrero, Paul Burchill and Drew McIntyre doesn't do much for McIntyre's WWE Intercontinental Championship reign; he needed that victory. Unsure what you're doing with Burchill, either. Does The Miz like, almost never wrestle? Get him involved with something, considering he's the WWE United States Champion. MVP and Mark Henry being hosts for the Diva of the Year award was slightly random, and Maria winning is more random and I hate that she won it when she has done f*ck all this year. CM Punk winning Superstar of the Year is fine. Nothing wrong with that I suppose. Batista getting involved however, made the scene seem SmackDown-like again. Not good when this is RAW. Feel like Sheamus could've competed.
ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 15th December 2009...Good way to open up the show with Zack Ryder overcoming Goldust in an interesting match. Ryder beating Shelton Benjamin should hopefully bring him closer to a shot at Christian's ECW Championship. Eurgh, it's not good that you're having Bryan Danielson debut under his real name. I wish you had at least waited for the new year to come before debuting him. If he's the 'American Dragon' if you're going to run with that nickname, he should have debuted on the 5th January 2010 edition of ECW, saying that 2010 was year of the dragon. William Regal getting in that segment was different, but his reaction to Danielson being in there could've been handled better. Was random for him to yell at the unknown. Eurgh, Vance Archer is extremely plain, wish that he hadn't beaten Shelton Benjamin personally. He has no personality, only that of an old-school midcard heel. Shelton is being demoralized now, wish he had won after losing at TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs. Interesting segment with Vladimir Kozlov and Ezekiel Jackson being broken up by William Regal. Confusing scenario, though. I am not a fan of Christian being attacked by Abraham Washington and Tony Atlas of all people. I could dig Washington as a heel manager in the main event scene, but I do hope that Abraham presents a client for Christian to feud with over the ECW Championship. Abe is not a wrestler, he's strictly a manager. I doubt he could've done the DDT at all, personally. Atlas could have, but I hope Atlas doesn't feud Christian. Good show, except that closing.
WWE Superstars: Thursday 17th December 2009...Evan Bourne beating Carlito is fine I guess. Nothing special, but treat Carlito a little better. I feel you could have had Chris Masters compete in Bourne's place, as Evan fought on RAW, whereas Masters did nothing all week. The Hurricane and Paul Burchill's feud still going on? Not sure what to think about that, really, but Burchill needs to get the hell off of ECW. Interesting main event with Luke Gallows beating Matt Hardy, just hope Hardy sticks in the feud with CM Punk. Decent show for what it was.
WWE SmackDown: Friday 18th December 2009...Great opening promo that really brought me back to the Attitude Era, with the smart setting up for a six-man tag team main event to the program. Well done there. Good win for Drew McIntyre and Dolph Ziggler against John Morrison and R-Truth, but what happened to R-Truth being in the situation with Matt Hardy against CM Punk and Luke Gallows? Hmm, nevermind. McIntyre needed the win, but hopefully, him and R-Truth could have a feud over the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Also hoping that Dolph Ziggler sinks his teeth into something good. Liking the situation where Vickie Guerrero is positioning Eric Escobar in different hard bouts. Mike Knox beating Escobar is fine, would be a somewhat entertaining big-man match. The Hart Dynasty defeating Jimmy Wang Yang and Slam Master J is okay, I hope that the Wang Yang/Jesse tag team evolutionizes on the SmackDown brand. I'm not a fan of the idea of Tyson Kidd and David Hart Smith facing Triple H and Shawn Michaels for the WWE Unified Tag Team Championship next week on Christmas Day. I can only see DX burying the Hart Dynasty. Chris Jericho beating Kane by count-out is fine, Kane should retire in the year 2010. Maria beating Michelle McCool...I hope Maria doesn't win the WWE Womens Championship ever. She's improved as a wrestler, but she should never be near the title. Lastly, a great six-man tag team main event with The Undertaker, Rey Mysterio and Matt Hardy beating Batista, CM Punk and Luke Gallows. Was a good show this week, pretty enjoyable.
