Finally, Money In The Bank.
- Very good opener with Kingston/Punk. Great to see Kofi pick up the win. Interesting to see some tension between the SES.
- Jackson/Shelton was a decent match. Not surprised to see Benjamin go over here.
- I absolutely loved the Benjamin/Tatsu SummerSlam vignette btw.
- Drew winning is not surprising due to the pre-match beat down. Could spark a feud between himself and Truth.
- Very happy to see Miz win here. Shawn's post match actions were great.
- Honestly, I was very surprised that Jericho got the win here. Legacy attacking Ted was needed as it keeps the feud going, which I expect will end at SummerSlam.
- I could've seen Ziggler/Bourne go either way, but I'm glad it was Bourne. Can't wait to see his performance in the ladder match.
- Sheamus getting the win with some assistance from the SES is great. I also expect this feud to end at SummerSlam.
- Kurt Angle is back. It's true, it's damn true. Very good segment with him and Swagger. I look very forward to their feud.
- Christian winning via dq was definitely the best choice. It keeps Edge looking like a strong champion and doesn't make Christian look weak.
- Very, VERY shocked to see Bourne win MITB. It's great though. Can't wait to see how long he'll hold it and what title he'll cash in on.
Overall, a very good show that keeps a lot of good feuds going heading into SummerSlam.

-Awesome to see Kofi win, SES not on the same page?
-Good to see Shelton go over.
-Ha, ha, loved the Shelton/Tatsu thing to go over.
-Pre-match beat down was very.........realistic. Drew winning wasn't a shocker
-Good to see Miz, HBK super kicking Cena and Morrison? DAMN.
-Would have been fine with either man going over, Legacy helping Jericho was good.
-Bourne winning is good, can't wait to see him in the MITB.
-Sheamus winning would have been a shocker, if it wasn't for the SES.
-Jack Swagger vs. Kurt Angle at Summerslam? Penguin likes this.
-Looks like Edge and Christian will fight again at Summerslam, TLC plz!
-Bourne winning was awesome, and shocking. Him giving high fives to all of the announcers was cool.
-Good PPV.

Money in the Bank, I was shocked to see Kofi Kingston qualify over CM Punk actually, but I'm glad as Punk shouldn't get another MITB opportunity after already winning it twice. With Punk going out, I don't think that Orton will be getting in either. The Straight Edge Society breaking down? I was pulling for Ezekiel Jackson here, but I suppose Benjamin is Mr. Money in the Bank, despite never winning, perhaps this is his night. As expected, Drew McIntyre qualified for the MITB Ladder match, but I don't see him winning it. I'm glad The Miz retained the World Heavyweight Championship, he deserves a decent reign. Chris Jericho over Ted DiBiase was the right way to go, DiBiase shouldn't be defeating Jericho just yet. I am so glad Evan Bourne went over Dolph Ziggler, and would love to see Bourne win the entire thing, he deserves it. As expected, Sheamus goes over Randy Orton thanks to The Straight Edge Society, the right way to go, Sheamus could win this thing. A DQ victory for Christian was for the better, he shouldn't be WWE Champion, but a victory here kept him credible. I see the feud continuing into SummerSlam. I am so shocked but happy to see Evan Bourne win the MITB, he deserves it and he would make an incredible WWE Champion I reckon, however, I think I see him being the first person to lose upon cashing-in. It'd be a shame, but it's got to happen sooner or later. Overall, a brilliant show and I look forward to it's aftermath.

-Time for the opener may be a little too long but I like it. Surprised Kingston went over as I expected to see Punk & Orton do battle in MITB
-I hope you get rid of Matt Cross, I always disliked him
-Glad Shelton qualified as he's always fun to see in the MITB
-The Rush Hour bit sounded classic, love it
-Enjoyed McIntyre attacking R-Truth before the match, gives him a big advantage heading into the MITB since his match was so short
-Love that Miz retained, even if it was in unfair fashion. Hope he keeps the belt for a good amount of time
-Surprised Jericho went over Dibiase, I think should have won here and won the whole MITB
-Don't like Evan Bourne going over Dolph Ziggler, I feel that Dolph has more upside
-Interesting stuff with Batista
-Glad you left Sheamus/Orton for the last MITB qualifier. Shocked that Sheamus won, but glad. Punk/Orton at SummerSlam should be excellent
-Wow, bringing Kurt Angle back is huge, but I feel like it should've been saved for a bigger PPV or if not maybe an episode of Raw to garner viewers
-Christian winning via DQ is good, I can see him winning the belt at SummerSlam
-Great MITB match as expected, though not a fan of Bourne winning. It does make for shocking TV, but I feel like everyone else in that match are closer to a Title victory
Very good PPV, as pointed out, a few decisions I disliked, but overall good stuff.

-Kofi winning was fine as I think if Punk was in he would've won. Very glad that now the unpredictability is on.
-Benjamin winning was good as his ability should make for some excitement.
-I'm predicting McIntyre to win MITB as he really squashed Truth on the post attack. And should seemingly be the most fresh.
-Figured Miz would win since his reign just began. Interesting to see what happens the next night on RAW with HBK's attack on Cena and Morrison.
-Jericho beating DiBiase was good. Sounds like an awesome match.
-Bourne beating Ziggler was good. Bourne's also a fave to win since his match was only seven minutes.
-Sheamus beating Orton I'm happy since Punk didn't qualify earlier. Looking forward to MITB as Kev said. Should be epic.
-Holy shit! Kurt Angle is back! Swagger/Angle at SummerSlam should be nice.
-Christian winning by DQ leaves both men strong. A rematch could be due at SummerSlam.
-Evan Bourne winning MITB was very shocking. Loved the concept. Loved the spots.
-Great PPV.

ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 13th July 2010...Shelton Benjamin beating Mark Henry is alright, not that bad an opening contest though it wouldn't have been the best match in the world to watch. Dolph Ziggler advancing into Money in the Bank is good, as Justin Gabriel isn't quite ready yet. I am hoping that Ziggler gets into the actual ladder match, he is great. Kenny Omega's existence on ECW I am still in question about. I like the guy, but he came up so fast I'm not too fond of the decision to actually bring him in. However it is smart to have him feud with Kaval, as both have prior knowledge on the independent circuit. You know you could easily recreate a cruiserweight division, the amount of small guys you have. Your ECW roster is so clustered. Drew McIntyre's segment was certainly interesting. Another rivalry for the end or survival of ECW...I love it. Matt Hardy and Rob Van Dam had a solid ECW Challenge bout main event, howevr the count out victory for RVD was a little weak. Overall, a good show to end with Hardy in a temper tantrum. Not bad going into Money in the Bank.
WWE SmackDown: Friday 16th July 2010...A good opening promo to immediately get us hyped with CM Punk and his Straight Edge Society explaining their latest wicked way. Randy Orton interrupting violently was nice, and it was a pretty intense promo. I liked how two-faced Orton was when Punk mentioned how they could go a long way as a unit. I would love a heel Orton with Punk, it could have been magical but obviously you want to build this rivalry up well. It has been running from May, I could see it main eventing SummerSlam. Decent victory for Jack Swagger beating Kane, good way to get Swagger over and looking forward to this battle royal later tonight. Bryan Danielson beating MVP was pretty odd, but I like the decision. Respectful battle between the WWE United States Champion and a contender. I'd like to see MVP get an opportunity soon. I like the battle royal being the first hour main event, but I hate how Jack Swagger, Bryan Danielson, MVP and Kane have already competed. It makes things slightly biased against them. I dislike it, and Sheamus with the win is probably for the better. Maryse and April Lee beating Beth Phoenix and Melina is fine, a pretty weird match here, with Phoenix and Melina having a slow and progressive feud. And lastly, great six-man tag team main event to propell different feuds and storylines headed into Money in the Bank. Kofi Kingston, Christian and Randy Orton winning against Edge, Sheamus and CM Punk was expected. Overall, decent show, but plagued by the multi-match booking of SmackDown superstars in both matches and the battle royal.
WWE Money in the Bank: Sunday 18th July 2010...Alright, looking pretty damn forward to this. I am not so fond of the match graphics however, as they seem to green and gimmicky in the background. In addition, it doesn't match the pay-per-view event poster, which takes away from layout for me. An awesome opening contest to kick things off however, with Kofi Kingston and CM Punk; can expect these two to put on a great show all the time. Awesome four-star classic, but twenty minutes for a qualifying match where Kofi (the winner) still has to fight in a six-man Money in the Bank ladder match is very extreme, too extreme for my liking. Punk angry with the Straight Edge Society so soon is sort of unsatisfying for me. Especially when they've only been around for approximately two months. Ezekiel Jackson losing to Shelton Benjamin seemed unfortunately likely, but it was a good bout I guess, short as expected. Next, not so good bout between Drew McIntyre and R-Truth; likely bout here. Strange about how short the bout actually was, though. Next up, solid triple threat bout with The Miz as expected retaining the World Heavyweight Championship against John Cena and John Morrison. I expected another match with Cena and Miz, or even Miz and Morrison for SummerSlam. However, I feel as though the Shawn Michaels attack should have occured on RAW rather than this; it's soon forgotten about with Chris Jericho facing Ted Dibiase moments later. Great battle between Chris Jericho and Ted Dibiase; expected Dibiase to win actually, but good win for Jericho with Cody Rhodes being involved. I cannot see Jericho winning Money in the Bank however, as it is just simply unnecessary. Would have been ridiculous to see Dolph Ziggler surpass Evan Bourne and get into the ladder match, but Ziggler definitely deserves a big opportunity and a massive push soon. Lastly, shocking to see Sheamus beat Randy Orton, but the interference from the Straight Edge Society made it realistic. Jack Swagger's promo was solid, and wow, Kurt Angle arriving back in the WWE. Awesome. I know of your plans. I also find myself disappointed about disqualification finishes on pay-per-view in WWE Championship matches. Christian winning against Edge is...alright I suppose, just unsure of how ladders came into play and it wasn't even Money in the Bank. With this result, I would have switched this with the World Heavyweight Championship match now. Amazing that Evan Bourne won the Money in the Bank ladder match; I couldn't see Shelton Benjamin winning, nor Chris Jericho. Honestly though, I would have preferred seeing Drew McIntyre or Kofi Kingston, or even Sheamus to win really. And Evan Bourne is on ECW; he will definitely need a lot of building up. A good pay-per-view, but it had a really bizarre sense to it. It felt more like a three-hour RAW, but at the same time a decently attempted experiment. The build was good, but I felt this pay-per-view was mildly anticlimatic. And I still think Kofi/Punk should have been shorter. This event basically propelled us more for storylines into SummerSlam with a few surprises mixed in.

 Raw: July 19th, 2010 Preview
The Raw superstars didn't come out with luck last night. The Miz retained the World Heavyweight Championship to many's dismay, and Evan Bourne of ECW won Money In The Bank. However, one thing did stand out last week when Shawn Michaels returned, but ended up hitting Sweet Chin Music on John Cena after winning a tag team match with him. Cena will be in the arena to call Michaels out about his actions last week and last night.
Also, The Miz will be in the arena - obviously going to be celebrating his victory. He will also be facing John Morrison in a non-title match. As spoken of earlier, at Money in the Bank, Evan Bourne won the ladder match main event. The ECW superstar will be appearing on Raw this week to take on Chris Jericho, who came ever so close to winning, before Bourne stopped him. Along with that, Bourne will compete on Smackdown as well.
As for other action; Jayson Paul will be against David Hart Smith, Curt Hawkins and R-Truth face in the mini-Intercontinental Championship tournament, and Cody Rhodes and Michelle McCool take on Ted DiBiase and Serena Mancini in mixed tag team action. All this along with Batista speaking.[/font] |

l JULY 19th, 2010 l BANK OF OKLAHOMA CENTER: TULSA, OK l
"A Heart Breaking Summer"
The opening pyros go off and we are welcomed to Monday Night Raw. The Miz struts his way out to the ramp with a grin, raising the World Heavyweight Championship to boos. He gets down to the ring and on the mic and says to the crowd he is still the world champion, just like he said he'd do. He says last week he may of been pinned by Shawn Michaels in his return match, but it is all John Morrison's fault. He says that he walked out on their match to get on the good side of John Cena; and they got the loss. He stops himself and says John Morrison got them the loss. He says it doesn't even matter though because last night he was the one standing tall above everybody else still as the World Heavyweight Champion - he said he could do it and he proved it. He goes to say he's The Miz and he's awesome, but before he can finish off his catch phrase, John Morrison cuts him off and makes his way down to the ring. He gets on the mic himself and asks Miz if he really thinks he is worthy of the World Heavyweight Championship. He mocks Miz with his "really? really?" and Miz yells at him to shut up. Morrison says he isn't going to because he is out here for a reason. He says that him and Miz face one-on-one tonight, and he wants to make an offer to him. Miz listens and Morrison says if The Miz manages to defeat him tonight, he never gets a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship as long as The Miz is champion. Miz says that's fine with him and begins to walk off, but Morrison says he isn't done - he obviously wants something in return. He says in confidence once he does beat Miz, he gets a shot at the World Title at Summerslam. Miz laughs a bit and steps up to Morrison with a grin. He says to him that sounds good but he wants to add one more thing to that match - he now says in confidence as well, after he does beat Morrison not only does he not get another shot at the World Title well he is champion, he leaves Raw for good. Morrison thinks for a moment and says he's on and they go on to intensely stare each other down looking forward to tonight.
Commercial Break
The promo video for Summerslam featuring Yoshi Tatsu and Shelton Benjamin in Rush Hour is shown.
Intercontinental Championship Tournament (Semis)
Curt Hawkins vs R-Truth
The bell rings, Truth hitting some shots to start, sending Hawkins down multiple times. He hits a few of his signature moves early on in the first couple minutes with some nice kicks, but Hawkins fights back hitting a few variations of DDTs and kicks of his own. He gets a couple near falls and both men go on to trade momentum back and forth. However, two men with long hair rush down to the ring and hop on the apron, grabbing at Truth. He stops at them though and Hawkins comes rushing, Truth ducking as he looked up at the titantron, and the men fall off, Truth hits the Axe Kick and gets the pinfall.
Winner of the match: R-Truth [6:52] **
Following the match, Truth celebrates for a little while before the two long haired men get in the ring, apologizing to Hawkins. They help him up and he shoves them away. He yells at them and tells them this is all his fault, he's giving them an opportunity and they blow it. He calls them "Trent" and "Caylen" and orders them to get backstage, they have something to talk about now.
We head backstage to see The Legacy in their locker room. Rhodes tells them he'll be fine out there tonight, they don't have to worry about him, he is going to be fine - he is facing two divas! They laugh about it and he says there is nothing to worry about, in all honesty, because this is going to be just another pushover with Ted DiBiase involved on the pushover side. He walks out, leaving Joe and Brett with grins.
Commercial Break
Mixed Tag Team Match
Diva's Champion Michelle McCool and Cody Rhodes w/Layla vs Serena Mancini and Ted DiBiase
The bell rings, the divas starting off. Serena hits a lot of hard slams to McCool over and over to start before she makes the tag to Rhodes who looks bewildered. DiBiase gets in and drags him along. He hits him with dropkicks, DDTs, and strikes as he maintains control in the next few minutes. DiBiase tags in Serena and McCool has to come in. She hits some nice shots of her own, and Layla trips her up at one point, the Faith Breaker hit and the pinfall.
Winners of the match: Michelle McCool and Cody Rhodes [7:40] **1/2
Following the match, McCool and Layla celebrate as DiBiase gets in the ring to fend off Rhodes. He checks on Serena and helps her up, Rhodes mocking him. DiBiase tells him he'll get what's coming to him soon enough.
We cut backstage to Josh Mathews and he introduces his guest at this time to be Mr. Money in the Bank, ECW's Evan Bourne. He asks Bourne about winning last night and he says that last night he captured his defining moment in the WWE so far - he says when he cashes in the Money in the Bank, it'll be even more defining. He says that when he saw Chris Jericho on top of that ladder with Kofi Kingston in the Walls of Jericho, he knew that he had a chance to get that briefcase, so he utilized those ladders and got himself up there and he got everybody out of his way and became Mr. Money in the Bank! He says he doesn't like to brag, but he thinks it has a nice ring to it, and Chris Jericho steps up. He mimics born with "has nice ring to it" and tells him to shut up. He says that he was cheated out of Money in the Bank last night, and it is all because of Bourne. He says he should just hand over the briefcase right now because it isn't worth fighting for. Bourne looks at the briefcase and then Jericho, and says it is worth fighting for - and he'll see him out in the ring.
Commercial Break
Singles Match
Chris Jericho vs Evan Bourne
The bell rings and the two lock up, Jericho taking Bourne to the mat and going for the Walls of Jericho early on. Bourne kicks him back though. He gets up and uses his speed and agility to take Jericho down multiple times with kicks and high strikes throughout the first few minutes. He hits the top rope knees to the chest but only gets a near fall. Jericho takes control next, even hitting the lionsault but Bourne holds him in the Codebreaker and bridges him for the 3.
Winner of the match: Evan Bourne [10:16] ***
Bourne hops to his feet in celebration, Jericho furious. He gets right up and clotheslines Bourne from behind, stomping him down hard. He pulls Bourne up and goes for the codebreaker again, but Bourne catches him once more and pushes him to the mat. Jericho gets back up to a kick to the chest, and then another. Bourne ducks a clothesline and hits a hard enziguri. He gets to his feet and climbs to the top turnbuckle, hitting the Air Bourne to a huge pop. He gets to his feet after in celebration and being handed the Money in the Bank briefcase from the referee.
Commercial Break
We return and Batista makes his way down to the ring to a lot of boos. He gets on the mic, still being booed, and he says silently he is tired of being disrespected and booed over. They continue their booing and he yells at them to shut up and to let him speak. He says that so much has gone on lately in his head and he realizes that no matter where he goes, no matter where he shows up he is not going to get the respect he deserves. He says he is off each week facing these low ranked guys well he deserves to be the World Champion! He says he is sick of it, and he wants Teddy Long to do something about it. Long soon comes out to the ramp, no music, with a mic in his hand. He says to Batista he had a feeling he would say something like that, because it is all he talks about. He says however, last night somebody returned and he is currently a free agent in the WWE. He says he wants to - like the NBA stars, explore his options. With that, Kurt Angle comes into the ring behind Batista and turns him around, striking at him hard. Batista goes to cltohesline him, but he ducks under it and hits the Angle Slam! The crowd is going nuts as he rises to his feet and pulls his straps down. He applies the ankle lock to the previous injured foot from a couple months ago, and Batista begins to tap out. He kicks Angle off with his good foot and rolls out of the ring, hobbling. Angle gets to his feet and taunts to the crowd with a grin - as he could possibly end up on Raw.
Commercial Break
Singles Match
Jayson Paul w/Shad Gaspard, Eve Torres, and Vince McMahon vs Unified Tag Team Champion David Hart Smith w/Tyson Kidd, Natalya, and Bret Hart
The bell rings and Paul hits some fast shots to start and then hits a couple kicks, flying off the ropes and hitting a clothesline. After a couple minutes, he still can't take Smith down and is hit with a huge back body drop. Smith hits some clotheslines and suplexes and tossovers before attempting the running powerslam. However, Paul slips off and kicks him in the gut, going for a neckbreaker, but he is flipped up and hit with the powerslam and is pinned.
Winner of the match: David Hart Smith [9:10] **1/2
Smith begins to celebrate but Gaspard gets on the apron. Smith notices it and runs to him to take him down. Kidd gets in the ring after and backs Paul out of the ring. McMahon orders them to go, and Eve follows along. Bret and Natalya get in the ring as well and Bret grabs a mic. He says to Vince he wants to make a proposal for him; if Shad Gaspard can defeat Tyson Kidd next week, at Summerslam The Hart Dynasty will put the Unified Tag Team Champiionship's on the line against them. McMahon looks to them and shouts back they accept.
We cut backstage to Teddy Long's office and in steps Matt Hardy. He says he wants in that mini-tournament for the Intercontinental Championship. Teddy says he can't do that, he already set up a match for next week. Matt says he deserves this more then anybody else, and Teddy says surely he deserves it but he can't just throw him in. Matt asks why he can't in rage, and then says he isn't his brother, he actually deserves this. He storms out of the room.
Commercial Break
Non-Title Match
If Morrison wins, he gets a title shot at Summerslam; If Miz wins, Morrison doesn't get a title shot and leaves Raw
John Morrison vs World Heavyweight Champion The Miz
The bell rings and Morrison takes Miz to the mat quickly, punching him rapidly. They get up and they trade blows and Miz hits a huge dropkick and then pounds down on the back. He hits a few knees to the jaw multiple times and his signature clothesline in the corner. Morrison fights back hard though, and throws Miz to the outside, launching himself over and taking Miz out. They get up and Miz throws him into the steel post and gets in the ring.
Commercial Break
We return, Miz in control. He hits some hard shots in the corner before Morrison kicks him in the chest and away. Miz rushes back and Morrison moves away, leapfrogging Miz and pushing him to the mat. He lands on the top turnbuckle beautifully and hits the Starship Pain, but only gets a 2 count. They go back and forth some more after and Miz even hits the Skull Crushing Finale. He goes to the outside and Morrison follows, but is hit with the World Title.
Winner via disqualification: John Morrison [14:25] ***1/4
After the match, Miz takes the World Title and throws it over his shoulder and taking a microphone. He says he'll see him at Summerslam. He grabs Morrison by the hair and pulls him up, before hitting him square in the head with the microphone. He throws it down and walks up the ramp.
Commercial Break
We return and John Cena makes his way down to the ring to a huge pop. He doesn't have that much energy shown in him like usual and he gets on the mic. He says last week he had Shawn Michaels be his tag team partner. He says he expected him to be great as usual in the ring, but something he didn't expect was to get kicked in the chin after the match. He says he knows Shawn has been going through a lot and he went through a lot at the beginning of the year with his best friend, Triple H. He says he knows he left for a few months to get himself together, and he knows that he is still the greatest performer to ever shine in this company. He says he himself has his problems as well. He says he lost the WWE Championship to Randy Orton at the Royal Rumble, he met the same fate as Shawn Michaels one year previous when he lost to The Undertaker at WrestleMania, and he even lost to The Miz - twice. He says when he brought Shawn back he thought it would give him a boost of momentum, but he obviously had other things on his mind last night and he lost because of it. He says he wants Shawn out here right now, because he wants answers. Shawn makes his way down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He asks Cena if he wants answers, and when he says yes, he says he'll give them to him. He says that he has been dying inside for so long now. He thought this WrestleMania would be his last and when he kept on trudging along and faced Triple H at Extreme Rules in a Last Man Standing match - he wasn't the one standing. He thought that would be the end of it for sure. But John called him up and he wanted him as his tag team partner and he saw the light at the end of the tunnel and quite honestly - that light isn't bright enough for him. He says he wants to win, but not with his assistance. John says if that is what he wants, then he can get it. They stare down a bit as Cena steps closer and challenges Shawn to a match at Summerslam. They continue to staredown as the crowd cheers for the idea of the WrestleMania 23 rematch. Shawn looks around and says "you're on" and extends his hand. Cena shakes it, the crowd cheering wildly, and they continue to stare down as Raw comes to a fading close. |

Raw, great opening segment with Miz and Morrison, can't wait to see their feud go further. I'm so glad R-Truth defeats Curt Hawkins, he would make a better Intercontinental Champion. The Dudebusters I imagine? Odd Mixed Tag match, but I'm glad the heels went over. Evan Bourne/Chris Jericho feud for the briefcase? And the first match in what I hope to be a good feud, glad to see Evan Bourne over Jericho, makes him credible. Kurt Angle on Raw to feud with Batista? Could be interesting. Glad that David Hart Smith won here, The Hart Dynasty needed a victory. I see Gaspard defeating Kidd for a Unified Tag Team Championships match at SummerSlam. John Morrison winning via Disqualification is clever and allows the SummerSlam World Title match to go ahead. John Cena versus Shawn Michaels at SummerSlam is epic, can't wait to see that. Overall, a good show.

-Great opening promo. Very entertaining. Miz vs. Morrison at SummerSlam sounds good. Should be fun to see if Morrison leaves RAW or not.
-R-Truth over Hawkins is good since Hawkins has not been seen on RAW for a while.
-Happy the heels went over in the match.
-Evan Bourne/Chris Jericho feud over the case? Sounds great. I can actually see Jericho take it. That sounds good and bad though.
-Happy to see Smith and Dynasty take stand in this diary. They needed that win tbh.
-Morrison over Miz is good. Wasn't expecting the DQ finish but I love it.
-Solid promo by John Cena. Cena/HBK at SummerSlam sounds epic. Can't wait already.
-Great show; lots to look forward too right now.

Wanted to make sure I didn't forget your reply so here it is. Great kickoff! Miz/Morrison at SummerSlam sounds nice. Truth over Hawkins is good since Truth is the more compatible person in the semis. McCool and Rhodes make a good team. Good win for them. Bourne over Jericho is good since Bourne is coming off winning the MITB. Smith over Paul was realistic. Not sure on it going nine minutes but your on time schedule so it's cool. Morrison beating Miz sounds good should make for a fantastic match at SummerSlam. It could be a show stealer. As could Cena/HBK. Two awesome rivals that have had classics after classics. I'd bet Cena since HBK just can back from break. Overall, good show.

- Solid opening with Miz and Morrison. Them having a match at SummerSlam sounds great, although Morrison leaving Raw doesn't as they just lost a big star in Triple H, so hopefully he can pull out a win.
- Couldn't possibly see Hawkins advancing in this tournament over Truth, so I'm glad that didn't happen.
- McCool and Rhodes going over is good, but I expect Ted and Serena to come out on top in their feuds.
- Not surprised to see Bourne pick up the win since he's Mr. MITB. Hope him and Jericho have some more matches in the future as they put on some excellent matches.
- Angle making his mark on Raw using Batista is great. Very interested in seeing which brand Angle chooses.
- Smith going over Jayson really makes me believe that Shad will beat Kidd next week to set up their match at SummerSlam.
- Morrison winning by DQ is great as it sets up their match at SummerSlam and makes neither men look weak.
- Incredible segment with Cena and Michaels to close the show. Them two at SummerSlam could definitely be a MOTY contender. Can't wait for it.
Very good Raw. SummerSlam is already looking amazing with only two matches set so far.

WWE RAW: Monday 19th July 2010...A pretty decent opening promo with the World Heavyweight Champion, The Miz in the ring. Expected that he would begin a rivalry with John Morrison, and their feud should hopefully reach a climax after SummerSlam for the belt. I see Miz winning, but Morrison winning would be a good change. R-Truth beating Curt Hawkins is fine, but what sort of return is that for Caylen Croft and Trent Barreta and The Dudebusters, by letting Hawkins down and costing him the match? Dislike that decision, it makes them look weak immediately. And like they're Hawkins' bitches. Weak opener too, if I say so. Michelle McCool and Cody Rhodes seems like an amusing combination; this would have been a better opening contest, truthfully. Nice to mix divas with male superstar feuds; good win for McCool and Rhodes against Ted Dibiase and Serena Mancini. Solid first hour main event win for Evan Bourne against Chris Jericho and looking forward to where this could go for Bourne as Money in the Bank briefcase possessor, but am I missing something because last I checked Bourne had remained on ECW. Batista's promo was good, decent follow up with Kurt Angle once again attacking. I really do suggest you hold off from Angle being in competition until SummerSlam when he faces Jack Swagger hopefully. David Hart Smith beating Jayson Paul is fine; good win for the Hart Dynasty against the alliance of Vince McMahon, Eve and the former Cryme Tyme. John Morrison getting the match with The Miz at SummerSlam is great, looking forward to it. Lastly, good promo from John Cena and Shawn Michaels, but if anything should have been first hour main event promo. A good show, but Miz and Morrison would have been best properly main eventing, it seemed bizarre and unfitting.

l JULY 20th, 2010 l VERIZON ARENA: NORTH LITTLE ROCK, AR l
"Stepping Up to the Plate... Again?"
The opening pyros go off, welcoming everybody to this edition of ECW. Evan Bourne makes his way out to the ramp to a big pop from the crowd as he raises the Money in the Bank Briefcase to them. He gets to the ring and gets on the mic. He says this feels great. He says he came back to ECW in the supplemental draft and was expected to not make it that far. He says he was skeptical himself, honestly, but he has had his ups and downs, but right now is a skyrocketing up and he is proud to be the Money in the Bank Briefcase holder on the ECW brand! He says that however, as much as he loves ECW, he has other possibilities to cash in the Money in the Bank Briefcase on, like the World Heavyweight or WWE Championship on Raw or Smackdown. He says he has no guarantees at this point of what he will do, but he knows one thing for sure - he will not stop this momentum any time soon, and everybody a part of the WWE Universe can watch him in action this Friday on Smackdown as he takes on his good friend, Kofi Kingston! The crowd applaud him as he thanks them and he exits the ring. However, as he is backing up the ramp in taunt to the crowd, Drew McIntyre comes running out behind him and hits him in the back of the head with a microphone. The crowd boo him as he brings the mic up, and he warns Bourne not to try and cash in on the ECW Championship, because he'll be the champion next week, and he won't want to have to deal with him.
Commercial Break
Tag Team Match
Dolph Ziggler and Kenny Omega vs Kaval and Justin Gabriel
The bell rings, Omega and Kaval starting off. Kaval hits a lot of sharp kicks to the upper body of Omega before teeing off on the legs. After some momentum and a huge kick to the back of the head that almost puts him away, Omega hits the Croyt's Wrath and makes the tag to Ziggler. He works on Kaval with some hard shots and variations of simple submissions. Kaval makes a tag to Gabriel and hits a kick to the jaw, and Gabriel hits the 450 Splash for the win.
Winners of the match: Justin Gabriel and Kaval [8:10] **1/4
After the bell, Omega gets in the ring and goes after Gabriel, but Kaval steps out in front of him and he stops dead in his tracks. Kaval goes towards him and Omega backs out of the ring and up the ramp quickly, Kaval and Gabriel proceeding to celebrate their tag team victory.
Commercial Break
Singles Match
Shelton Benjamin vs Chavo Guerrero w/Vickie Guerrero
The bell rings, Benjamin hitting some shots to start things off. Chavo fires some back and goes for a few roll ups, but cheaply, as he holds the tights and places his feet on the ropes but Benjamin manages to get out of it each time. After a couple minutes of back and forth action, Benjamin hits the Paydirt, but as the ref is counting, Vickie pulls him out of the ring screaming. Quickly, Chavo rolls Benjamin up and the referee gets back in and counts the 3.
Winner of the match: Chavo Guerrero [7:24] **
Chavo celebrates his cheap victory and gets out of the ring, Benjamin getting on his knees in anger. Vickie follows after Chavo and they make their way backstage.
Commercial Break
We return backstage to see Ezekiel Jackson in Paul Heyman's office. He says that he is in full support of the plan of Drew McIntyre to destroy ECW. Heyman laughs and says that it isn't Drew's plan, it is obviously a plan of Vince McMahon himself. He says he knows he doesn't want ECW alive, he tried to close it down a few months ago with Abraham Washington - but with the outcome in the draft, he was brought to ECW and he didn't sign it away. Jackson says he doesn't care, he hopes Rob Van Dam ends up being defeated and being exposed for what he truly is - pathetic.
We cut to Savannah and she introduces her guest to be ECW Champion Rob Van Dam. She asks what he thinks of having to face Drew McIntyre again tonight, and RVD laughs a bit before saying he doesn't care about Drew. He says what he does care about, however, is keeping his ECW Championship - and no matter if it's Drew McIntyre for the numerous times, or anybody else once, he'll do what it takes to keep his title, and he's continuing tonight.
Commercial Break
Non-Title ECW Challenge Match
Drew McIntyre vs ECW Champion Rob Van Dam
The bell rings and RVD hits some hard shots to start things off, but Drew pushes him away. They do this a couple times before McIntyre clotheslines him down and begins to stomp aggressively. After a couple minutes of McIntyre control, he goes for the Future Shock but RVD trips him up and hits a spinning leg drop. He goes on to take momentum hitting some hard kicks to take McIntyre down, and even hits the 5 Star Frog Splash. McIntyre gets out of the ring after that, and RVD follows. McIntyre hits a low blow and shoves him back in the ring. They get up and he hits the Future Shock for the win.
Winner of the match: Drew McIntyre [10:15] ***
McIntyre celebrates his cheap victory and takes the ECW Championship from the referee as he is going to hand it to RVD who is struggling to his feet. He shoves the referee to the mat and motions for RVD to get up, also yelling at him to. RVD gets up and turns and is met with a shot of the ECW Championship to the head. He lays the title over his chest before taking a mic and getting on his hands and knees and says he'll see him next week to end ECW. |

- Great opening with Bourne. McIntyre attacking him was a nice touch.
- Kaval/Gabriel over Ziggler/Omega is fine.
- Chavo over Benjamin would normally be a shocker, but because of Vickie's involvement it's not. Great to see him win though.
- McIntyre winning here is good as it gives him a title shot. Really pulling for him to win.
Great ECW, but it seemed a little short.
