WWE RAW: Monday 1st March 2010...Decent way to start off the show with John Cena in the ring calling out The Undertaker. Good promo and predictably we have our main event scheduled for WrestleMania XXVI. I predict this will main event, as they are the company's biggest two stars and haven't fought as long as Cena has been main eventing shows. Drew McIntyre and John Bradshaw Layfield could have a nice relationship, with McIntyre being JBL's boy. Paul London and Brian Kendrick beating the British Alliance is fine in a good World Tag Team Champions vs WWE Tag Team Champions match. Would have been a solid match and basically forwards the tag team turmoil match for the WWE Unified Tag Team Championships. Anticipating it, but it will be a clustered match, I predict. Ted Dibiase overthrowing Evan Bourne is fine; a good win for Dibiase. Hmm, Lita in the Hall of Fame? Was Trish Stratus inducted last year? Because I feel Trish definitely should have been inducted first. Elijah Burke beating Drew McIntyre was fun, good bout I predict but good win for the new WWE Intercontinental Championship. JBL's promo was nice, but basically prepared Brand Warfare; second time Batista's been in a Brand Warfare match at 'Mania. He should have a credible main event. Hopefully he doesn't retire until next year, the dude deserves a payoff 'Mania match. The New Hart Foundation beating Cryme Tyme is fine by me, no problem. Beth Phoenix and Serena Mancini overcoming Mickie James and Tiffany came as no surrpise. Expect we'll see another unification match between the WWE Womens Championship and the WWE Divas Championship in the near future, probably not at 'Mania, which would be for the best. Batista and Edge had a solid main event, but the contract signing following it was unneeded. Was a good show, but again lacking some good RAW superstars.
ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 2nd March 2010...That's a point; I wonder if you will end up dropping ECW and debuting NXT or not. Obvious that Bryan Danielson would win the semi-final match; I just hope he doesn't win the ECW Championship if he does indeed win the tournament. I like how he was doing it to spite Dolph Ziggler and The Miz however, but hopefully they get the upper hand on Danielson. Matt Hardy's promo was nice, I could see him in Brand Warfare; him or Mr Kennedy. Hardy facing Tommy Dreamer is about a year in the making technically, so should be a good Extreme Rules match. Decent segment with Zack Ryder, not fond of Curt Hawkins returning to action now. And him being with the WWE Television Champion makes him look inferior. So expecting a title change soon. I could see Ryder and Hawkins return at being a team in the tag team turmoil match. Jimmy Wang Yang beating them? Bizarre decision. Again, as you usually find, the ordering of this show is pretty off. You should have had the Hardy promo first, with perhaps this tag team match opening in the ring. Jack Swagger not opening or main eventing ECW despite being ECW Champion makes him look bad. Swagger and Carlito beating Primo and Dreamer is fine. And lastly, fine main event win for Mr Kennedy against Rey Mysterio: that's it, I can predict Mysterio in Brand Warfare. A good show, wondering how next week will go. However, your WrestleMania XXVI card is weird; what happened to Money in the Bank qualifiers? Also hopefully soon the other two contestants in Brand Warfare is revealed; I'm intrigued majorly.

-Good way to open the show with Danielson/Ziggler. Danielson winning is great. -Hardy/Dreamer match next week should be good. -JWY over Hawkings is nice. Makes JWY look more credible for the Television title -Carlito and Swagger over Primo and Dreamer is good. The post match actions were nice as well. -Kennedy over Mysterio is decent. Him vs Danielson next week should be great. Overall, great ECW.

-Danielson/Ziggler sounds awesome. Happy to see Beyan won. -Yang over Hawkins a fine call either way as I'm a fan of both superstars and both had reason to win. -Swagger and Carlito was the better team to win since Swagger is the champion. -Mr. Kennedy over the very underrated, Mysterio is a nice call. Hope this leads to Rey Mysterio into MITB. Kennedy/Danielson should be nice. Go Bryan! -Good ECW, Kev. Keep it up.

March 5th, 2010 Intrust Bank Arena in Wichita, Kansas Attendance: 14,601
Smackdown kicks off with a recap of last week, as we were shown video of Randy Orton’s attack on Jeff Hardy following his match with The Undertaker. Before the weekly opening video package for Smackdown is shown, we cut straight to a video of CM Punk and Drew Gallows. They are outdoors at what seems to be a hot setting. Punk talks into the camera and says that he had it all wrong when we went after Jeff Hardy last month. Yes, Hardy is a source of bad influence due to his past history with drugs, but Punk realized that he needed to start at the beginning of WWE’s drug past, which is his plan for today.
Jim Ross and Matt Striker welcome us to the show as they being to promote the card. They announce that tonight we will witness Pick Your Poison matches involving Jeff Hardy and the World Heavyweight Champion, Randy Orton. Plus, we will keep taking you to the various videos that CM Punk has sent in from his “adventure” earlier today.Money in the Bank Qualifying Match Kofi Kingston vs. Shelton Benjamin [/color] Whenever these two meet it’s always a treat and tonight was no different. They opened Smackdown with some fast paced, hard hitting action. Benjamin hit the Exploder, block buster and Shell Bomb for near falls. Kingston got close calls after hitting the SOS, a monkey flip and the Boom Drop. Kingston went for Trouble in Paradise, but Shelton ducked and drilled him with Paydirt. He covered but Kofi got his foot on the ropes. Shelton began to argue with the referee, which gave Kofi time to get up and roll Shelton up into a nice pinning combination for the win. Winner: Kofi Kingston [10:02] ***½[/color] Kofi rolled out of the ring and celebrated his victory as Shelton seemed horrified. He just let victory slip through his fingers. As Kofi’s on his way up the ramp, “I’m Coming” hits and Shelton is in shock. MVP comes rushing down to the ring and exchanges right hands with Benjamin. MVP wins the exchange and puts him down with a huge clothesline that he follows with the Drive-By. The crowd goes crazy as MVP makes a surprised appearance on Smackdown and gets a measure of revenge on Shelton Benjamin!Commercial Break.[/color] We return to once again see the promo hyping Lita’s induction into the 2010 Hall of Fame, where she will be inducted by 2009 inductee, Trish Stratus.
Vickie Guerrero and Stephanie McMahon are shown in their office and as of late, they seem to have figured out a bit of a truce as they aren’t fighting as much anymore. Randy Orton enters the office and informs them that he has chosen Jeff’s opponent for tonight. The ECW Champion Jack Swagger steps into the office. Stephanie says that he’s not from Smackdown, but Orton tells her that the rules of Pick Your Poison state that he can choose anyone from the entire WWE roster. Stephanie realizes this and allows the choice of Jack Swagger.Tag Team Match The Dudebusters w/ Curt Hawkins vs. The New Hart Foundation w/ Natalya Neidhart[/color] A few weeks back we witnessed the first meeting of these two teams and the Dudebusters came out on top on their way to a Tag Team Title shot. Tonight, this was more about giving us a preview to the Tag Team Turmoil match at WrestleMania. Unlike last time, the Dudebusters were on fire early on, cutting the ring in half and preventing Wilson from making the tag. He eventually did and Smith used his power to take over the match. In the end, the springboard Hart Attack on Croft nabbed them the win. Winners: The New Hart Foundation [8:21] ***[/color] We are now shown CM Punk and Drew Gallows again. They’re walking around a town and Punk reveals that they are in Texas. He says that he can’t fully blame Jeff Hardy for his lifestyle. He has to blame the people, or person, who came before Jeff. The guys that Jeff would’ve looked up to growing up. Punk says that a role model should not be someone who does not possess the will power to “just say no.” But he’s here to save Jeff Hardy and all of us, as he will get to the root of all of this evil.Commercial Break.[/color] We are now joined by Chris Jericho, who comes to the ring sporting the usual suit. He gets inside and is handed a microphone. Jericho begins to cut a promo, reminding us that last week, he was left off of Smackdown. This happened despite him being the best in the world at what he does. He claims that Stephanie and Vickie are jealous that he is the face of this brand and not the egotistical General Managers. Jericho switches his focus to WrestleMania. He says that even though he was the World Heavyweight Champion just a few months back, he has yet to be placed on the card for WrestleMania. He says that since Stephanie and Vickie seem to forget that he is the true face of Friday nights, he’s going to prove it at WrestleMania. Jericho demands to be the Smackdown representative at the Brand Warfare match. He ends the promo by stating that any other choice from Smackdown, would just doom the brand. Commercial Break.
Pick Your Poison Non-Title Match ECW Champion Jack Swagger vs. Jeff Hardy[/color] For a first time ever match, these two stole the show tonight. They seemed to mesh well and it made for great television. Neither man really took a big upper hand, although if we were scoring it, Swagger would’ve had a slight lead. Near the end, he hit the slingshot splash in the corner, but didn’t go for the pin. He set Jeff up for the Gutwrench, but Jeff swept Swagger’s legs out from under him. He then rolled through for a near fall. When both men got up, Jeff kicked him in the gut and connected with the Twist of Fate. He climbed up and nailed the Swanton Bomb to pick up the win. Winner: Jeff Hardy [12:57] ***¾[/color] Randy Orton is shown watching on a monitor and he doesn’t look too happy about the result. Then we cut to a shot of Gail Kim and April Lee backstage. Kim seems to be a little unhappy with Lee for asking for a match with Kelly Kelly tonight. Lee says that she wants to prove herself against all Divas, even if it means beating Gail’s partner from last week. She walks off leaving Gail looking uncertain.Commercial Break.[/color] CM Punk and Drew Gallows have another segment, and this time they are at a bar. Punk says that he thought he’d find who he was looking for in a place like this. He reveals that the part of Texas they are in is currently San Antonio. Punk preaches about everything wrong with abusing alcohol and drugs. A drunk guy at the bar attempts to hit Punk, but Drew Gallows stops him and takes him down. He does the same with two other guys and the whole time CM Punk is calmly talking to the camera, never turning his back to the violence. He says that he is near his destination and they leave.Tag Team Match Chris Masters & Sheamus vs. John Morrison & United States Champion Tyler Black[/color] It was a tad weird to see Black on the same team as Morrison considering they were involved in a great best of seven series a short while ago. All of those matches paid off here as they had good chemistry and worked well as a team. The power of the heels had the match in their control though. Despite this, Black and Morrison utilized their athleticism to take over and Morrison managed to put down Masters with the Moonlight Drive. Winners: John Morrison & United States Champion Tyler Black [8:54] **¾
Commercial Break.
Divas Match April Lee w/ Gail Kim vs. Kelly Kelly[/color] Even though she just recently debuted in the WWE, Lee carried Kelly in this bout. She showed that she truly has the potential to be a star in this division. Kelly hit a few key moves here, but the story was Lee. She unleashed an array of kicks in her disposal and won after hitting a Shiranui [standing sliced bread]. Winner: April Lee [5:18] **[/color] After the match, Lee was unusually cocky and arrogant. She took a bow towards the crowd and stood over the fallen Kelly Kelly. Gail Kim got inside and talked some sense into her. Lee seemed to understand and they left together.
Stephanie McMahon is walking backstage and she finds Chris Jericho. She tells him that what he said earlier tonight was very untrue. And to prove that he isn't under appreciated on Smackdown, she and Vickie have decided to have Chris Jericho be their representative at WrestleMania's Brand Warfare match. Jericho smiles and said that he's glad she saw things his way. They shakes hands and Stephanie leaves him.Randy Orton is shown walking down a corridor because he’ll be in our main event, which is next!Commercial Break.
Pick Your Poison Non-Title Match Batista vs. World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton[/color] The crowd roared with approval when they found out that Jeff Hardy’s choice for Orton’s poison was his former Evolution partner, Batista. These two have had some battles in the past and tonight wasn’t much different. They had a good match, with some nice back and forth action. He set up for the World Champion for the Batista Bomb, but Orton slid free and hit the RKO from out of nowhere. He covered and got a near fall to everyone’s surprise. He then backed away and seemed to set up for the Punt. Jeff Hardy rushed down to the ring and cut him off right before he could deliver the knockout shot. Winner via Disqualification: World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton [10:19] **¾[/color] The crowd cheered as Jeff not only saved Batista from sure injury, but he also took Orton down. The two WrestleMania opponents brawled to the crowd’s approval. Jeff got the better of the exchange by nailing the Champion with a Twist of Fate. Orton rolled out of the ring and Jeff helped Batista up.We cut to a final CM Punk video. He and Drew Gallows are at the front door of a big house. They knock and a familiar looking woman answers. Punk asks if her husband is home. She wants to know what this is about and Punk just tells her to get her husband. She begins to argue with him, but suddenly her husband comes to the door. Shawn Michaels demands to know why Punk is there. Punk says that they were once friends, but now Punk has realized that Michaels lives an awful life. His past is well documented and Punk feels that the guys in WWE currently who used to idolize Michaels are going to follow in his terrible footsteps. Michaels tells Punk that he doesn’t know what’s up with him now, but this is no place to discuss this. Punk suggests that they discuss it at WrestleMania. Michaels is shocked at that and reminds Punk that he is retired. Punk demands that he be a man and face him at WrestleMania so he can prove to the world that straight edge means he is better than everyone. Michaels still denies the match, so CM Punk slaps him across the face. Michaels goes to retaliate but stops and said he promised himself that he wouldn’t fall back into this. Punk slaps him again, and this time Michaels charges at him. He tackles him down, but Gallows starts to nail Michaels. Punk and Gallows beat on Michaels and toss him around in the house. Michaels’ wife and kids look on in horror. Punk is shouting for Michaels to be a man and face him or his wife and kids will think that he’s a coward. Michaels is in obvious pain and Punk locks him in the Anaconda Vise, demanding that he accept. After some time in the hold, Michaels finally says yes. Punk releases him and goes to leave with Gallows. He tells Michaels that he’ll see him at WrestleMania. The kids and his wife go to check on Shawn as the show goes off the air.© WWE 2010[/font][/center]

- Kingston qualifying for Money in the Bank was obvious; as we see here with MVP attacking Benjamin. - The New Hart Foundation beating The Dudebusters is good as they deserve more momentum to WM. - Wonder what CM Punk and Drew Gallows are doing in Texas... - Jericho becoming a part of the brand warfare would be great. - Jeff Hardy defeating the ECW Champion was quite obvious, and good. - The next part of the Punk/Gallows segment is pretty funny, and very realistic of Punk. - Morrison and Black getting the win is good, Masters being the one pinned is the best decision. - Lee getting the victory over Kelly Kelly puts her over a bit more. Post-match characteristics seems like a feud is coming. - Jeff stopping Orton from punting Batista to cause the DQ is good, as he has always been the one who stops this stuff. - Oh wow, Shawn Michaels vs CM Punk at WrestleMania? That's huge. Unsure about HBK returning to the ring though.
A good show overall.

-Benjamin has risen more than Kingston so newer on the rise stars like Kofi into MITB was smart. -A decent preview for the turmoil. Dudebusters are one of the newer teams and should fare will as a first try in the turmoil. -Very nice to see Jeff Hardy over Jack Swagger. I don't mind who ever wins the WWE Championship Match at WrestleMania. They're both two of my favorite superstars. -Morrison and Black teaming up was interesting and them over Masters and Sheamus was solid and very enjoyable. -Lee over Kelly is fine. Her career is really sprouting and I see big things for her. -Orton over Batista via DQ because of Hardy's save was a good way to end the show. -Woah. HBK returning? Awesome. Everything except one thing I didn't like about the promo but since it was 2 on 1, there was no way Punk could have lost that one. Shawn needs to win at MITB though. -Great SmackDown; WrestleMania looks epic.

They need momentum into the Tag Team Turmoil. -Hardy over Swagger is nice. Him winning is a great choice. -Morrison and Black winning over Masters and Sheamus is nice. Masters getting pinned was the best choice. -Lee over Kelly is good. Her career is shaping up nice. -Hardy saving Batista from the Punt for Orton to win by DQ is nice. Their match at WM should be great. -Punk vs Michaels at Mania should be decent. Great way to end the show. Overall, great SmackDown.

Good job on Smackdown, loved it, I am especially loving the build-up towards WrestleMania XXVI
My man The Viper Randy Orton coming into Mania as the World Heavyweight Champion, and facing Jeff Hardy the 2010 Royal Rumble Match winner, I will make a bold statement right now about this match. Jeff Hardy has no chance against Randy Orton, and let's not forget Orton has beaten Jeff in the past a reminder would be Royal Rumble 2008 where Orton beat Jeff Hardy to retain his WWE Championship, but Hardy returns the favour and takes out my man Orton at Unforgiven.
Only for my man Orton to make his return at Cyber Sunday, and reveal himself after taking off his mask after attacking Jeff Hardy, and from then on making Jeff's life a living hell where Jeff eliminated Orton to win the 2010 Royal Rumble Match, minor setback.
But Orton won the title at No Way Out in the Elimination Chamber, and now Jeff chooses to face Orton
This match will be probably candidate for Match of the Year, 5 star match in the making, with Orton winning and retaining his World Title seeing as how Orton won it not all that long ago.
John Cena vs. The Undertaker, Match of the Year, if you ask me, this will probably be one of the main events, if not the main event seeing as how 2 of the WWE's biggest icons ever will be facing off for the first time ever at Mania, Undertaker's 17-0 streak vs. John Cena, this match I think will steal the show.
CM Punk vs Shawn Michaels, this match, another candidate for Match of the Year, HBK returning to the ring, I am definitely loving that, and I want HBK to take out Punk ever since Punk & Gallows pretty much embarrassed Shawn in front of his wife & kids, so hopefully HBK rises to the occasion once again and Mr. WrestleMania defeats Punk.
Brand Warfare, I am calling it, Batista will win the match for RAW
Tag Team Turmoil, New Hart Foundation Smith & Kidd to become WWE Unified Tag Team Champions
Loving the build-up for Money In The Bank too
Edge vs Christian for the WWE Title, the brothers facing off TLC, I want Christian to beat Edge to become WWE Champion for the first time ever, this will probably be the match that closes the show or one of the matches that closes the show
Overall this WrestleMania 26 card is top-rate, and even more the 2010 Hall of Fame class headed by The Rock, and Lita, hopefully more big names get put into the WWE Hall of Fame like Million Dollar Man Ted DiBiase

[NAMES ARE STILL CLICKABLE & WILL STILL LINK YOU TO TITANTRONS] March 8th, 2010 Rose Garden in Portland, Oregon Attendance: 18,280
Raw opens with a video showing the events that occurred during Edge and Christian’s contract signing last week. It focused on their big brawl heading into tonight.The opening fireworks shoot off to signal the start of tonight’s show. The announce team of Michael Cole and Jerry “The King” Lawler welcome us to the broadcast and begin to hype up the card. They announce that our main event will feature John Cena going one on one with Christian! Plus, we’ll see a Money in the Bank Qualifying match and Batista will take on somebody from Smackdown in preparation for his Brand Warfare match at WrestleMania.We are joined by “Captain Charisma” himself, Christian, to open tonight’s show. He gets in the ring and is handed a microphone. Christian begins to speak, saying that with his and Edge’s names now officially signed on a contract, he is guaranteed to get his hands on his brother at WrestleMania. He says that there is no better feeling in the world. Tonight, he has to stay focused though as he has a big match with John Cena. He admits that he had some issues with Cena the last time he was in WWE, but he’s a different person now. He has gained a ton of respect for Cena, as he has watched him become a sure fire future WWE Hall of Famer. His promo is cut off by an attack from behind by Edge. Edge levels him with the WWE Title and then stomps on his brother. He then waits for him to get up and nails him with a Spear. Edge looks at his brother with a sick smile on his face as we go to commercial. Commercial Break.
Tag Team Match Drew McIntyre & Ted Dibiase Jr. vs. Intercontinental Champion Elijah Burke & Evan Bourne [/color] The mid-card scene on Raw has really been heating up as of late and tonight they showed it again. This tag match featured good action, although the heels really did a number on Bourne. He did however; manage to escape their grasps after hitting a big hurricanrana on McIntyre. He made the tag to Burke, who took over the match. He seemed poised to win it for his team, but a low blow behind the referee’s back by McIntyre changed that. He then delivered the Scot Drop and picked up a pin fall over the Intercontinental Champion. Winners: Drew McIntyre & Ted Dibiase Jr. [9:51] ***[/color] After the match, the two winners were celebrating, until Ted hit Drew with Dream Street from out of nowhere. He then pointed up at the Money in the Bank briefcase that was suspended over the ring, reminding Drew that at WrestleMania there will be no partners.Commercial Break.[/color] We return to Raw to be joined by former WWE Champion, MVP. He comes to the ring in street clothes, making his first appearance on Raw since before No Way Out. He kicks off his promo by reminding everybody that he returned this past Friday on Smackdown, and extracted some revenge on Shelton Benjamin. He takes us to the video of what occurred on Smackdown. MVP says that the beef between him and Benjamin has been brewing for a long time now, but it got extremely personal when Benjamin attacked him at No Way Out. That attack took MVP out of the WWE Title Elimination Chamber and cost him a shot at becoming Champion again. He admits that what happened on Friday felt great, but he doesn’t think that it was enough. So he’s laying down the gauntlet right now. He wants Benjamin, one on one at WrestleMania XXVI! Not just that, but he wants the match to be contested under Extreme Rules, so that whatever he does to Shelton is completely legal. The crowd loves this idea and he tells Shelton that he’ll be waiting for his answer this Friday. The commentary team now takes over and announces that three weeks from tonight, which is the night after WrestleMania, WWE will host its annual Draft! That Raw will be three hours long and feature all three brands, plus the fallout from the biggest show of the year. It’s sure to be one of the biggest Raw’s ever!Commercial Break.
Non-Title Match Divas Champion Maryse vs. Mickie James[/color] This was brought about after Maryse got involved in last week’s match. Midway through the match, Women’s Champion Serena Mancini came down the ramp and watched the match. James was in control and picked up the victory after hitting the Mick Kick. Winner: Mickie James [5:15] **[/color] Once the bell rang, Mancini slid into the ring and began to wail on James. She lifted her up and set up for the Mancini Code, but surprisingly, Smackdown’s Gail Kim rushed down the ramp. She slid in and prevented the Mancini Code from happening. She hit Serena a few times and sent her to the outside. She helped James up, as the two Champions backed up the ramp looking surprised.Commercial Break.[/color] John “Bradshaw” Layfield is in his office, when Mickie James and Gail Kim enter. He asks what Kim was doing here tonight. James said that after getting attacked by Maryse last week, she knew she could use some help and the best person to get help from would be Maryse’s worst enemy. JBL says he agrees with the logic, but he’s going to get to the bottom of this. He says that later tonight, he’ll talk to both Serena and Maryse and find out what exactly is going on.Singles Match Batista vs. Sheamus[/color] Batista’s Smackdown opponent turned out to be none other than the “Celtic Warrior”, who is one of the blue brand’s fastest rising stars. This first time ever battle proved to be the straight up fight you’d expect. The brawl even spilled to the outside for a short period of time, but the end was near. When they got back in the ring, Sheamus attempted the Bicycle Kick but Batista ducked it and nailed the Batista Bomb for the win. Winner: Batista [9:25] **¾[/color] Batista looks ready for Brand Warfare at WrestleMania, and this Friday night on Smackdown, Chris Jericho will get a test match as well, but against an ECW super star.
An announcement is now made, concerning the next inductees into the 2010 Hall of Fame Class. Joining The Rock and Lita will be none other than the Legion of Doom! They will be inducted by their former manager Paul Ellering.Commercial Break.
Money in the Bank Qualifying Match Kaval vs. Primo[/color] Ever since Paul Bearer stopped coming to the ring with Kaval and he dropped the Intercontinental Title, he seems to be extremely focused. It showed here tonight, as these two put on a really good match. Primo used some of his high flying skill to hold a slight advantage at times. That ended after a stiff kick from the former IC Champion, and he finished off Primo with the Warrior’s Way. Winner: Kaval [8:11] ***¼[/color] Christian is shown getting checked on by doctors after he was attacked by his brother earlier tonight. John Cena enters the room and says that he heard what Christian said earlier, about having respect for him now. John says that he respects Christian as well and is looking forward to their match tonight. Christian says he is too, and wishes John good luck. They shake hands, but before John can leave, Christian tells him that he’s looking forward to witnessing his match with The Undertaker at WrestleMania. John smiles and says the entire world is looking forward to it too.Commercial Break.[/color] John “Bradshaw” Layfield is shown walking down the hallway, when he stops and knocks on a door. A woman says come in, and when JBL enters, it is revealed that the women are Serena Mancini & Maryse. JBL asks them what’s going on between them. Serena reveals that last week Maryse came to her with an idea. Last year at WrestleMania, the Divas and Women’s Champions teamed up at WrestleMania. They feel that if they do the same this year, then they will prove that they are the two best women in the WWE. JBL says that he can respect an idea like that, and he’s happy that they want to team up. He just got off the phone with Stephanie McMahon and they’ve decided that at WrestleMania XXVI, Maryse & Serena will team up to face Gail Kim and Mickie James. The two women are happy until JBL reveals that unlike last year, both the Divas and Women’s Titles will be on the line that night. Serena and Maryse’s moods turn sour as they are furious at this news.Non-Title Match World Tag Team Champions The British Alliance w/ Katie Lea Burchill & Layla London vs. Legacy[/color] The crowd was unsure about who to cheer for here as both teams are heel. They seemed more into Legacy though as the British Alliance got most of the heat. They turned in a good preview match for the Turmoil Unification bout. In the end, Legacy surprised a lot of people when Rhodes put Regal down after hitting the Cross Rhodes. Winners: Legacy [8:02] **¾
Commercial Break.
Singles Match Christian vs. John Cena[/color] As expected, this was a great main event. It had an old school feel to it due to the respect shown by both competitors and the lack of outside interference or underhanded tactics. Cena’s power gained him the early upper hand, but Christian came back and got in the driver’s seat. Near the end, Cena hit a big shoulder block, which he followed up the five knuckle shuffle. He covered for a near fall, but quickly got up and signaled for the FU. He hoisted Christian up, but he managed to reverse it into a crucifix pin for the shocking three count. Winner: Christian [12:56] ***½[/color] John Cena looked shocked at how he lost, but he showed great sportsmanship and shook Christian’s hand after the match. Cena left the ring and headed up the ramp, while Christian celebrated in the ring. Edge came running in from the crowd and attacked Christian, just like earlier tonight. Before he could do any real damage though, Cena turned back and chased him out of the ring. He helped Christian up as Edge was not too pleased heading up the ramp.© WWE 2010 [/center][/font]

-Good promo to kick off Monday Night RAW. Cena/Christian shall be solid and Edge's attack is fine for hype for Mania'. -McIntyre and DiBiase over Burke and Bourne is a good call. DiBiase's post match attack is interesting. Hope he wins MITB until I see the rest of the participants. -Wonder if Benjamin will accept MVP's challenge. I'll bet he will. Or else they'd probably get into MITB. -James over Maryse is fine. Hope Maryse keeps the championship though. -Good preview for Mania' with Sheamus losing to Batista. Realistic call and wish it would've happened in real life. -Kaval over Primo is the right call. I wonder how Kaval will fare without Kane and Bearer. Don't turn him into a jobber. -The Winner Take All Divas Match sounds nice. Looking forward to it. -Legacy over Alliance is a fine call. Decent preview for WrestleMania. -Not sure I agree with Christian over Cena considering Christian was attacked early on. But since he pinned him with a crucifix I suppose it's fine. -Pretty good RAW; looking forward to WrestleMania.

Your Wrestlemania card is unbelievable! John Cena versus Undertaker is going to be a classic. I love how many opponents have yet to be announced as it leaves a lot of room for guessing and speculation. I hope a few people remain a surprise for the PPV.

Post match actions with DiBiase standing tall is great. -MVP vs Benjamin at WM would be nice. Wonder if Benjamin will accept. -James over Maryse is good. -Tista over Sheamus is great for momentum going into the brand warfare match. -Kaval over Primo is nice. Him in MITB without Bearer should be interesting. -The divas tag winner take all match sounds good. Should be nice. -Legacy over the tag champs give them big momentum into WM. -Christian over Cena is great for momentum into Mania. Cena saving Christian in the end is good. Overall, solid RAW. WrestleMania is shaping up great.

ECW officially kicks off with a video that shows Mr. Kennedy and Bryan Danielson qualifying for the Finals of the Road to WrestleMania Tournament, which we will see in tonight’s main event!Byron Saxton and Todd Grisham welcome us to ECW and promote tonight’s huge card. We will witness the finals of the Road to WrestleMania Tournament when Bryan Danielson takes on Mr. Kennedy, with the winner facing Jack Swagger for the ECW Title at WrestleMania XXVI! Plus, Tommy Dreamer will meet Matt Hardy in Extreme Rules, the final Tag Team Turmoil Qualifying match and a Money in the Bank Qualifier, which is how we will open tonight.Money in the Bank Qualifying Match Carlito vs. Rey Mysterio [/color] Two of ECW’s most athletic stars put on a very good qualifying match here. Both would make great candidates for Money in the Bank, so the winner was up in the air. Carlito hit most of his signature moves but could not put away Rey. The crowd helped Rey rally and he managed to cap off his rally with a big 619! He went for the West Coast Pop, but Carlito ducked under it. Once Rey landed, Carlito rolled him up into a school boy, with a handful of tights and picked up the win. Winner: Carlito [10:09] ***¼
Commercial Break.[/color] We return to see Rey Mysterio in the back, looking very disappointed in himself. Theodore Long comes up to him and asks Rey what’s wrong. Rey says that ever since he came to ECW, it’s been a long struggle. He hasn’t managed to gain consistency and it has cost him. He failed to win the ECW Title at Royal Rumble, he lost in the Road to WrestleMania Tournament last week and he couldn’t qualify for Money in the Bank tonight. Long tells Rey not to give up, because he has chosen Rey to represent ECW in the Brand Warfare match at WrestleMania. Rey says he doesn’t deserve it, but Long tells him that he believes in Rey and chose him because he feels like he is the best choice. He tells Rey to go out and prove him right at WrestleMania.
The announce team takes over and reminds everyone that the next two inductees into the 2010 Hall of Fame class will be the Legion of Doom. They will inducted by their former manager, Paul Ellering.
Perfectly Awesome is now shown walking towards the arena, alongside the lovely Alicia Fox. They will be in action, next!Commercial Break.
Tag Team Turmoil Qualifying Match Goldust & Yoshi Tatsu vs. Perfectly Awesome w/ Alicia Fox[/color] The former World Tag Team Champions were trying to get into the last spot of the Tag Team Turmoil Unification match at WrestleMania in any possible way. They attempted too many pins to count. Tatsu and Goldust were resilient though and managed to kick out of them all. Tatsu went for his big finishing kick, but Miz ducked it and nailed the Skull Crushing Finale from out of nowhere! He covered and got the three because Alicia Fox grabbed hold of Goldust’s leg, preventing him from entering. Winners: Perfectly Awesome [9:09] **½[/color] We now cut to the back, where Josh Matthews is standing by with both Mr. Kennedy and Bryan Danielson. He asks both men on their opinions heading into tonight’s main event. Danielson goes first, saying that it is an honor to be in the Finals, and he says that he respects Kennedy, but he has no qualms with making him tap out tonight. Kennedy speaks and it’s a lot more boisterous than when Danielson talked. He says that he is something that nobody else on the roster is and that’s a two time ECW Champion. He guarantees to make it three at WrestleMania, no matter what Danielson thinks. The two shake hands before the camera cuts out.Commercial Break.[/color] Zack Ryder is shown backstage with Courtney. He has the Television Title draped on his shoulder and he begins to talk about last week. He says that his old partner, Curt Hawkins, couldn’t get the job done and lost to Jimmy Wang Yang. This now allows Yang to get a Television Title shot. Ryder says there no use beating around the bush, so Yang can have his shot next week. Ryder gets a serious look on his face and stares right into the camera. He says, “I will keep my title, woo woo woo, you know it.”Extreme Rules Matt Hardy vs. Tommy Dreamer[/color] Teddy Long got what he wanted when he booked this match. Dreamer really took it to Hardy as he hit him with several weapons, busting him open with a kendo stick shot. Matt fired back with some big offense as well, but Dreamer blocked the Twist of Fate, by pushing Mat into the corner. He then managed to connect with the DDT but before he could cover, Ezekiel Jackson’s theme hit. The big man came down to the ring for the first time since September of last year. He got in the ring and went straight for Dreamer. He clubbed him down a few times, then picked him up and hit the Book of Ezekiel. He then left the ring, and Matt took advantage by pinning Dreamer for the three. Winner: Matt Hardy [9:21] **¾
Commercial Break.
Road to WrestleMania Finals Bryan Danielson vs. Mr. Kennedy[/color] Even though this was the finals, it wasn’t the best match of the Tournament. Kennedy seemed to not really like Danielson’s hard hitting style and it just didn’t mesh well. ECW Champion Jack Swagger was on commentary during the bout and he was heckling both guys. Kennedy had Danielson up for the Green Bay Plunge, but he wriggled free and set him up for MMA style elbows. Danielson hit about ten of these and then locked in the Cattle Mutilation. Kennedy would not tap out, but slowly fell unconscious, leading to Danielson getting the win. Winner: Bryan Danielson [10:10] **½[/color] Before Danielson could even begin to celebrate, Swagger rolled in the ring and nailed him with the ECW Title. He then lifted him up and drilled him with the Gutwrench Powerbomb. He then picked up the ECW Title and raised it high over his head.© WWE 2010 [/font][/center]

-Carlito over Mysterio was sort of expected for MITB. Hope this makes Mysterio the ECW participant for the Brand Supremacy Match. -Perfectly Awesome over Goldust and Tatsu is the right call. They need to be the final team of turmoil unless you have a returning team coming. -Hardy over Dreamer is good. Hardy hasn't been too great lately but he hasn't been to bad either. Hope he gets in MITB. -Danielson over Kennedy is a smart call as now it sets up a new challenger. Danielson/Swagger sounds good. -Solid ECW.

- Carlito getting into the Money in the Bank is good; as Mysterio can and now is in the Brand Supremacy Match. - Obvious call to have Perfectly Awesome go into the turmoil over Goldust and Tatsu. - I am interested in Zeke returning in this match and going for Dreamer... pretty intriguing. - Bryan Danielson going into WrestleMania against Jack Swagger will be great and fresh.
A good show.

This week’s broadcast opens with a video package, showing the events of last week, where Jeff Hardy defeated Jack Swagger and Randy Orton took on Batista in Pick Your Poison battles. This video ended on a somber note though as it showed CM Punk’s sadistic home invasion of Shawn Michaels.Matt Striker and Jim Ross welcome everyone to tonight’s show, after the fireworks display of course. They hype up the show, announcing that our main event will feature World Champion Randy Orton teaming with Shelton Benjamin to take on Jeff Hardy and United States Champion Tyler Black. Plus, we will hear Benjamin’s answer to MVP’s challenge last week. Also, we’ll get a Money in the Bank qualifying match and then there’s the biggest news of all. Tonight, Shawn Michaels is in the building! The first time he’s been in a WWE arena since April of 2009.The Undertaker’s music plays as “The Phenom” makes his slow walk out to the ring. He gets in the ring and surprisingly asks for a microphone. The entire arena is dark, with some eerie purple lighting effects. He begins to speak about John Cena. He mentions that back in 2003, they had a rivalry. But at that time, both men were very different. Over time, ‘Taker has changed who he is completely. Meanwhile, John Cena has developed into one of the biggest stars the WWE has ever seen. But, for the most part, they’ve been on separate brands in the past. At WrestleMania XXVI though, that won’t matter. When Cena eliminated him at the Royal Rumble, it set something off inside of him. That ended his chances of getting a Title match at WrestleMania. He says that he isn’t one to complain, but he is cut off by the theme of John Cena. He comes down the ramp and gets right in the ring. He grabs a microphone and tells The Undertaker that he doesn’t have to explain anything. He realized that eliminating Undertaker at the Rumble ended his chances of getting a Title match at WrestleMania, and we all know how matches at ‘Mania usually turn out for him. Cena also knows that ‘Taker isn’t one to complain, which is why instead of doing that, he accepted a match with him at WrestleMania. Cena says that accepting the match was a mistake though, because that spotless ‘Mania record will be ruined in Phoenix. Undertaker goes to speak, but Cena cuts him off. He tells ‘Taker that he honestly doesn’t want to hear anything he has to say. His complete focus is on WrestleMania and heading into that night, ‘Taker is his enemy and nothing more. Undertaker nods his head, showing agreement to that statement. He then connects with a Chokeslam from out of nowhere. Undertaker looks down on Cena’s fallen body, before heading out of the ring. Commercial Break
Non-Title Match WWE Tag Team Champions Brian Kendrick & Paul London vs. The New Hart Foundation w/ Natalya Neidhart [/color] These preview matches for the upcoming Tag Team Turmoil match at WrestleMania have been good for the most part, but this may have been the best. These two teams have always had great chemistry and it showed here again. For the first time though, both sides were face and it made for an interesting dynamic. After some fast paced, great action, Wilson pinned London following the springboard Hart Attack. Winners: The New Hart Foundation [11:19] ***[/color] We cut to the back, where Ashley Valance is standing by with Jeff Hardy and Tyler Black. She asks them how it feels to be teaming tonight for the first time ever. Hardy says that tonight will be great and looks like the start of a great friendship. He sees a lot of himself in Tyler and wants to help his career grow. Black says that he appreciates the help and says tonight they can start doing well when they team up.Commercial Break[/color] The advertisement announcing the Legion of Doom’s induction into the 2010 Hall of Fame is shown. They will be inducted by their former manager, Paul Ellering.Non-Title Match Gail Kim w/ April Lee vs. Women’s Champion Serena Mancini w/ Divas Champion Maryse[/color] Despite being a first time ever match, this contest delivered. Both women are known for their in-ring abilities and their styles meshed well. Mancini decided to try and ground Kim and stop her high flying offense. It worked throughout, until Kim managed to get free and hit a missile dropkick. She then connected with Eat Defeat for the win. Winner: Gail Kim [5:23] **½[/color] After the match, Maryse rushed in and went to nail Kim with the Divas Title, but April Lee cut her off by tackling her to the mat. Maryse and Mancini rolled out of the ring as Kim and Lee stood tall in the ring.
We cut to see Chris Jericho enter the General Managers’ office. He says that this past Monday on Raw, Batista got a warm up match against a Smackdown guy to prepare him for Brand Warfare. He wants the very same thing tonight. Vickie had an answer ready for him as she tells him that tonight, he will be facing an ECW superstar. Jericho likes the news and heads out.Commercial Break
Singles Match Chris Jericho vs. Mr. Kennedy[/color] The crowd gave a loud pop when Kennedy was announced as the ECW representative, and this first time ever match was set. They performed well together, as Jericho was trying to pick up a win against another brand in any possible way. He must have tried about seven different roll ups, but none worked. Kennedy hooked him for the Mic Check, but Jericho elbowed his way out of it and hit the Codebreaker from out of nowhere! That was enough to pick up the win. Winner: Chris Jericho [9:42] ***[/color] After the match, Jericho grabbed a microphone and promised that we will see this very same result at WrestleMania XXVI. He claims to be the best in the world at what he does, and there will be no better way to prove it than on the grandest stage of them all.Commercial Break[/color] Shawn Michaels’ theme blasts over the speakers as HBK comes to the ring for the first time in almost a year. He gets an extremely large pop from this sold out crowd. He was obviously, not in a good mood though. Once he got in the ring he began to slowly speak. First, he does say that he has missed being in a WWE ring. The more pressing matter though is the reason why he’s back here. Last week, CM Punk put on one of the most disgusting acts in WWE history. It was bad enough that he brought Shawn’s awful past to the light, but to attack him in front of his wife and children was just sick. His kids haven’t been able to sleep for the week, because they keep worrying that the “bad man” will come back and attack daddy. CM Punk’s music now hits as he comes to the top of the stage with Drew Gallows. He tells Shawn that he doesn’t care what his kids say or if his kids are insomniacs, all that he cares about is righting the wrongs that Shawn has done in the past. Shawn gets really pissed now and says that he righted his wrongs a long time ago and Punk has no right to say different. He wasn’t going to return at WrestleMania, no matter what Punk did. But after seeing the look on his kids’ faces, he knows that he must get rid of his CM Punk problem. Win, lose or draw at WrestleMania, this thing is over between them. Punk agrees and says that‘s just what he wanted. He calls Shawn Michaels the original poison of the WWE and it’s his job exterminate him. Punk and Gallows turn and walk to the back. Commercial Break
Singles Match Kofi Kingston vs. Sheamus[/color] In what was mostly a preview for the upcoming Money in the Bank match, Sheamus decided it was time to try and completely take out one of his opponents. Instead of trying to pick up a traditional win, he attempted to annihilate Kingston. He hit him with some powerful moves, before throwing him to the outside. Out there, he grabbed a steel chair and assaulted him with it. Winner via Disqualification: Kofi Kingston [8:04] **½[/color] Sheamus continued the attack after the bell; until referees rushed down to stop him. He eventually stopped and raised his hands in the air. He left up the ramp with a sick smirk on his face.
Shelton Benjamin is backstage and he’s about to be interviewed by Josh Matthews. Matthews asks Shelton about MVP’s challenge to face him at WrestleMania in an Extreme Rules match. Shelton laughs and says of course he’ll accept. The issue between himself and MVP goes back a while and he’d like nothing more than to beat him down again just like he did at No Way Out.Commercial Break[/color] We return and go straight to the announcers who hype the upcoming WWE Draft live on March 29th, during a three hour Raw. They mention that the entire landscape of the WWE could change dramatically.Money in the Bank Qualifying Match Chris Masters vs. John Morrison[/color] Masters has really been on his game lately and has put on some good matches. He’s due for a United States Title match in the coming weeks, but tonight was about Money in the Bank. He used his power to try and wear down Morrison early on, but a well timed springboard kick helped Morrison gain the upper hand. He hit the Moonlight Drive, but Masters managed to somehow kick out. Morrison was shocked and they battled for a short while longer, but Morrison eventually won with the Starship Pain. Winner: John Morrison [7:16] **¾
Commercial Break
Tag Team Match Jeff Hardy & United States Champion Tyler Black vs. World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton & Shelton Benjamin[/color] These four great athletes put on an awesome main event. At first, we got a feeling out process, with each man getting a chance to shine. That turned sour for the faces as Orton and Benjamin cut the ring in half and abused Black. The young upstart was in trouble for a while, until Shelton went for the Shell Bomb. Black, who also does a Buckle Bomb, reversed it into a hurricanrana, sending Benjamin into the turnbuckle. He made the tag to Hardy, who cleaned house. He was on fire and went for the Swanton Bomb, but Orton rushed in and shook the ropes. As Jeff was in pain on the top, Black tagged back in. Black tossed Orton to the outside, and when he stood up, Jeff dove off the top and hit him with a big cross body. In the ring, Black had Shelton set up for the Buckle Bomb, but Shelton reversed it into a back body drop. When Black got up, he was met with Paydirt, which he used to pick up victory. Winners: World Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton & Shelton Benjamin [12:12] ***½[/color] While Benjamin celebrated in the ring, Hardy and Orton brawled up the ramp. They reached the stage and Jeff called for the Twist of Fate. Orton broke free, dropped down and hit Jeff with a low blow. He then hit an RKO onto the steel. He was on all fours and staring at Jeff sadistically. His face is the last image we see tonight.© WWE 2010[/font][/center]
