Let's just get to WrestleMania 26 already, because I am so excited literally on the edge of my seat each week until the big WrestleMania pay per view since your Mania card is looking to be one of the best on this whole forum with excellent matches all across the board everything from the Money In The Bank ladder match to the main event for the WWE Championship.
Especially the Hall Of Fame, Morrisonic, excellent choice for Pillman going into your WWE Hall of Fame, really excellent choice I never expected it, but when you pulled that off, Morrisonic, you really earned some respect from me, gained a lot of respect
For the Hall of Fame, who needs to go into the WWE Hall Of Fame next, and I am sure that everyone else will agree with me on this choice right here: "Ravishing" Rick Rude, and for Rick Rude it is much deserved, I don't even understand why Rude is not in yet, look at his accomplishments: WWE Intercontinental Champion, Tag Team Champion, U.S. Champion, Television Champion, Rude was in the original DX with HHH, Michaels, and Chyna, Rude was also in The Dangerous Alliance with Stone Cold, Arn Anderson, Madusa, etc.
Hopefully you put him in, but its your diary
Great job on RAW, hopefully ECW and Smackdown are just as good

This board was just starting to be cool again. Then you came back, tg11. What happened to that rock you crawled under? Maybe next time you should find a bigger rock.

- Pick Your Poison should be great.
- Sheamus win was expected. Him in MitB will be interesting.
- Kofi winning via DQ is good. Makes both seem reasonably strong.
- I like the way you are booking the Legacy triple threat.
- Cryme Tyme winning was good. Gives them some rep, and also the finish builds tension in the main event.
- Brian Pillman in HOF is well deserved.
- I liked the Signing. Builds the feud well.
- Kidman wins!? WTF?! Major surprise there!
- I like how Maryse dissed the Women's champ, hopefully the same happens vice versa on SD!
- Serena is being built nicely.
- Cena v Dibiase is huge!
- Cena losing by DQ is fine, The Undertaker "interference" bult the feud more.
- The aftermath built the Legacy feud further.
Great show, you are building feuds nicely! Keep it up!!

Reading this for the first time I am kind of shocked at RVD and Kidman being back, but I enjoy it. I think Kidman will be good in the MITB. Kind of disappointed to see Sheamus make it over Evan Bourne only cause Bourne could do a lot in a match like that but it makes sense for Sheamus to be in and is different. I like what you've got going on with Shawn and Triple H, looks interesting. My favorite thing I think is the Legacy stuff. Very well written and seems fairly intricate with Rhodes being in the middle of the two but leaning more towards Randy's side it seems while Dibiase is completely on his own against everyone.
Really enjoyed that show.

-Sheamus qualifying for the MITB makes sense, hope he doesn't win it though
-Miz retaining by disqualification was the right call, maybe Miz/Kingston at 'Mania?
-Rhodes wanting to work with Orton is good, and Orton DDTing him was great
-Pillman getting inducted is different but I like it
-Contract signing was as expected, and heel HBK is always good
-Kaval/Kidman is a match I'd like to see although I'm not sure how much Kidman can go at this stage of his career. Glad he advanced though
-Push Mancini to the moon! Glad her & Maryse won
-Heel Cena is interesting and having Ted face him was good. Ending it in a DQ works and the finish to the show was solid
This diary is rapidly becoming my favorite and I'm intrigued by the 'Mania card so far.

ECW: March 9, 2010
Key Arena: Seattle, WA
After the opening pyros, it is not long before ECW Champion William Regal makes his way out to the ring. He gets on the mic and is getting booed massively. He tells them they should be silent, because he is the reigning King of the Ring. He also mentions he is the ECW Champion, so he deserves respect. He goes on saying that he won this ECW Title after chasing it for months, and eventually captures it at TLC. Quickly, he moves onto retaining it until now, and says he will go to WrestleMania and beat whoever it may be. He says he'd be honored to face Eric Escobar or 'Michael' Knox, but if he had to face a young gun thinking he is going to shoot to stardom quickly or an old washed up pile of garbage he'd simply take a sip of the finest tea and laugh for hours at the easy accomplishment it would be going into WrestleMania. He finishes things off by saying that he will be on ECW March 30th, and still the ECW Champion, and they will all have to deal with it whether they like it or not.
Commercial Break
Money in the Bank Qualifier
Vladimir Kozlov vs Ezekiel Jackson
We return going into this match. Things go by pretty slow at the start, neither man getting ultimate control. They trade some blows a bit, and Kozlov misses a big boot, and Jackson begins to attack him with some powerful shots. He maintains control and delivers tons of hard shots, but fails to convert to slams, and Kozlov begins to fight backs. Forearms back and forth firing, but Kozlov begins to deliver multiple strikes, and even delivers a big boot and a powerslam. Some near falls, and they continue to go back and forth and almost get a double count out. Kozlov tries to finish it after a few minutes of battle back and forth with the battering ram, but Jackson kicks him in the head, and delivers a chokeslam to get the pin.
Winner of the match: Ezekiel Jackson (9:40) **1/2
After the match, Jackson celebrates his victory as Kozlov is furious on the mat.
We cut backstage to Savannah, and she introduces her guest to be Eric Escobar. She asks him about possibly becoming the next number one contender. He tells her he plans on winning tonight, but before anything more, Vickie cuts him off and says that he will win tonight. She corrects him on everything, and he eventually gets so annoyed with it he yells at her to shut up. He storms off and Mike Knox casually strokes his beard behind Vickie, which scares her off when she turns around.
Commercial Break
#1 Contenders Tournament Semi-Finals
Tommy Dreamer vs Mike Knox
Knox already seems lost without Escobar and Guerrero by his side this week. The match kicks off with Dreamer pounding away at him. They start to go back and forth with blows, but Knox begins to overpower with shots. He gets into a rhythm, and takes complete momentum over the ECW Original. He delivers tons of powerful moves over a long period of time, but things end up swaying to Dreamer as he begins to fire back. They end up falling to the outside and get a brawl going on outside. They eventually get back into the ring, and they trade momentums for the next few minutes. However, Dreamer ducks a clothesline and spins Knox around for the Dreamer DDT and gets the pinfall.
Winner of the match: Tommy Dreamer (7:02) ***
After the match, Dreamer celebrates his victory as he is one step closer to getting another chance at the ECW Championship.
Commercial Break
Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder come down to the ring after the WrestleMania promo. Ryder speaks up and says that last week he won a Money in the Bank Ladder Match Qualifier. "Woo Woo Woo, You Know It!". He is cut off by Hawkins, who complains he didn't even get a Money in the Bank qualifier, and Ryder tells him he has an oppurtunity this Friday on Smackdown! in the Last Chance Battle Royal, and Hawkins begins to complain about so many people being in the match, but Ryder ignores him. He continues to say he is going to win the Money in the Bank match and he will one day become the WWE Champion, and everybody else should be jealous of him. However, Shelton Benjamin has something to say as he gets to the ring. He says that he has been in every single Money in the Bank Ladder Match since it began, and he has made it steal the show every year, and it is about time he wins. Ryder says back that Benjamin isn't going to do a thing as long as he is in the match. Benjamin challenges him to a preview match next week. Ryder says he doesn't feel like it, and volunteers Hawkins to do it. Benjamin says that works to, and he'll see him next week. Hawkins and Ryder argue as Benjamin leaves with a smirk.
Commercial Break
We return with the promo for Brian Pillman being inducted into the Hall of Fame.
#1 Contenders Tournament Semi-Finals
Bryan Danielson vs Eric Escobar w/Vickie Guerrero
Both men get down to the ring and they go back and forth to kick things off. Escobar begins to overpower him though with lots of different variations of slams and suplexes. Danielson begins to fight back when he is put in the corner as he delivers a series of forearms to the side of the head. He continues with some aireal moves and constantly knocks Escobar down to the mat. However, he can't put him away at all. They continue for the next few minutes trading momentum back and forth, each showing lots of nicely hit moves, especially from Danielson. However, things seem like they are going to be over after Danielson misses a clothesline and Escobar hits the Pure Escobar. They are shocked he kicks out and he gets up slowly in the corner. Escobar hits the running big boot, and Guerrero starts to cheer loudly on the outside. He leans over the top rope and yells at her to be quiet. They begin to argue, and he eventually blows her off and goes back to Danielson only to be pulled in with a Small Package and Danielson gets the victory.
Winner of the match: Bryan Danielson (10:31) ***
After the match, Escobar is throwing a fit, and is blaming Guerrero as he gets in her face. William Regal begins to come down to the ring, and gets in stalking behind Danielson, who is celebrating on the top turnbuckle. However, Tommy Dreamer comes rushing down for the save. Regal quickly gets out of the ring, and Danielson doesn't really know what to think of him being there, and begins to question him. Dreamer explains to him and Danielson looks to Regal backing up the ramp, then to Dreamer, and shakes his hand as they will face off next week as ECW comes to a close. [/font] |

Regal starting out the show with a promo is nice. I love that he is champion. Absolutely love it. I was rooting for him during his feud with Christian in real life and very disappointed that Christian destroyed him that one time in like... eight seconds. Money in the Bank Qualifier... good choice having Zeke go over. It is unlikely that anybody on the ECW brand would ever win MITB, but if anybody could do it... it's Zeke. It would be awesome to see him win it, then get drafted to a brand with a real World Title. Ooooh yeeeah. Wow, Dreamer pulled it off. I was really looking forward to Knox moving on, but I'm one of the few who thinks Knox is awesome. Dreamer getting the finish basically out of nowhere is nice. It keeps Knox strong, having not been dominated at the end, merely finished with a DDT. Not bad. Nice promo with Hawkins, Ryder, and Benjamin. I love that you brought up Benjamin being awesome in MITB every year. That seems to be a common theme in the 2010 diaries. Hah. Main event time! Pretty obvious that Danielson was going to go over. Escobar losing to a small package is fantastic. Great finish, having it Vickie's fault that Escobar was distracted. Dreamer/Danielson will be awesome, especially since neither is heel. The whole face/face thing was great with Dreamer/Christian in real life... as well as Christian/Benjamin... so this will work, too. That seems to work quite well in WWECW, come to think of it. Another good show. Pretty obvious that Danielson is going to go to WM, but Dreamer getting the shot would be okay, too. That is just my opinion, though.  |

ECW, good opening segment with Regal. Very happy to see Jackson over Kozlov, he definitely needs the MITB spot more than him. Glad Tommy Dreamer went over Mike Knox, can't wait to see who he'll face in the finals. You don't know how happy I am that Eric Escobar didn't get into the finals, Danielson is a perfect contender. I like the respect between Danielson and Dreamer, should be an epic match. I hope to see Dreamer win, tbh as I don't want to see you push Danielson too quickly. He can always have shots later on, right now, I think Dreamer deserves the shot. However, all that said, I would like to see Regal retain, whoever goes to the Title match. Good ECW, I'm liking the WrestleMania build up.

 WWE Going Back to TV-14?[/size] As the competition with TNA is now beginning recently, the WWE is in consideration of bringing WWE back to TV-14 post-WrestleMania. Cross Signs[/size] As of today Matt Cross has reportedly signed a contract with the WWE after meeting with them this past weekend. According to what was reported previously, it is nearly a lock as to what creative wants to do with him. WWE Schedule Movement[/size] Extreme Rules has been pushed up to the month of April due to the fact the 2010 Draft happening the night after the April Pay-Per-View event being the night after, and WWE has decided they want to end feuds with special stipulations rather then begin them that way, explaining the reason for the move. As for the May Pay-Per-View, it is set to be revealed soon. The most popular choice at the time is Slamboree, and another possibility of putting King of the Ring in June rather then return Vengeance. All these decisions are expected to be solved soon.[/center][/font] |

WWE RAW: Monday 8th March 2010...Hmm, unusual for RAW to open up without a promo, instead a midcard match. Often, it starts with a main eventer-based promo or match. Nonetheless, would be a decent match between Evan Bourne and Sheamus to kick off the show, Sheamus getting the win is alright, he could have some good spots in the Money in the Bank match; as demonstrated by Kane and Mark Henry in the past. I'm sure he won't win it, and also hoping that Bourne does end up in the Money in the Bank match anyway; if he won a battle royal, that'd be fine by me. Kofi Kingston beating The Miz is alright I suppose; the disqualification finish justifies The Miz as a cowardly WWE United States Champion, and definitely ensues for a rematch down the line. Next, good tag team match that would probably be the first-hour main event for the show, but Cryme Tyme over Cody Rhodes and Randy Orton in any situation is bad; very bad. I just dislike that as an entire. Brian Pillman in Hall of Fame is good. Hopefully the Hall of Fame isn't too plagued by deceased superstars though; I'd say maybe two or three is enough. Solid promo there with Triple H and Shawn Michaels, DX falling apart and setting up for WrestleMania XXVI's collision course. Following this, a pretty solid match between Billy Kidman and Kaval, but was slightly surprised by Kidman getting into Money in the Bank over Kaval. As good as Kidman is, and the amount I like him, I hope he isn't around as a significent superstar on RAW for too long. He'd be awesome if you debuted WWE NXT down the line and he was the Pro for Justin Gabriel's Rookie. Serena and Maryse beating Melina and Gail Kim is fine; no idea what you have in store for divas at WrestleMania. Lastly, great win for Ted Dibiase, the disqualification finish is realistic to keep John Cena popular, but the method of finish was weak. Would have preferred Orton jumping both men. Overall, a great show that practically hyped everything for 'Mania on the RAW brand.
ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 9th March 2010...William Regal, the ECW Champion starting things off is fine. Nice promo there by him, but I totally do not see him facing Eric Escobar or Mike Knox, really. I feel that the promo wasn't worth much of value and should have been placed as an interview, really. Solid opening contest, but after the two have a steel-cage match weeks before in the main event, and this opening...I dislike that. The fact it's gone down to singles match, plus the risk of the feud restarting here. Ezekiel Jackson in Money in the Bank...hmm, would have preferred Vladimir Kozlov over him for the match. Tommy Dreamer in the finals is odd; good win for Dreamer though, just can't see him against Regal being a solid match at all. Decent promo by Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins, as well as Shelton Benjamin. I'm interested in who wins, but anticipate Benjamin will win due to his ability to do crazy spots in Money in the Bank. Lastly, surprised that Bryan Danielson won against Eric Escobar, but logical. Danielson and Dreamer next week...why Dreamer? It's now totally obvious that Danielson is going to WrestleMania XXVI. Good show, but this tournament is now totally obvious, and this is way too soon for Danielson in my mind. It seems obvious he'll become ECW Champion though; but if the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship straps are changing holders, it'd be the best change ever if the ECW Championship didn't change on March 27th.

Smackdown: March 12, 2010
Key Arena: Seattle, WA
We kick off Smackdown with the pyro display going off. After we run down the card, we have the music of John Cena hit around the arena and he comes down to the ring slowly to the crowd's displeasure. He gets on the mic soon after and tells the crowd it is time for them to be quiet because he has something to say. He talks about costing Undertaker the World Title at Royal Rumble, and claims it was worth it. He talks about challenging him to a match at WrestleMania to prove himself back at Elimination Chamber, and claims it was worth it. He then says him winning at WrestleMania and proving he is worthy of getting back in the running for the WWE Championship will be worth it, to which the crowd doesn't like. He begins to insult them by calling them stupid and that he is the best in this business and he is the only one out of anybody in the entire WWE that can beat Undertaker at WrestleMania because he has the ability to go into there and take the streak and rip it to shreds and then go on to take the WWE Championship well the dead man's streak goes down with him. The lights go out after that remark, and when they come back on moments later 'Taker is in the ring. He has a mic in his hand and him and Cena stare down a bit. He brings the mic up slowly and tells Cena that he is playing in a yard he shouldn't be in. Cena cuts him off from his next sentence and says he knows he is going to talk about for 17 WrestleMania's he has had challengers rise and challengers fall, and Cena claims that the only reason he is stopping him from saying it is because he doesn't want Taker to get caught up in his own little world that he has any chance in hell at winning. Taker says Cena has guts, and he is lucky he doesn't have a hand grasped around his throat right now. Taker continues by saying John Cena is a cry baby, because all he has done ever since Royal Rumble is complain he can't get another shot at the WWE Title until a new champion is crowned and attacked him from behind because of jealousy. He says that Cena may think the streak is going to the grave with him, but he says the only thing that is going to the grave is John Cena's career, because he will be taken to hell and back, and once he returns to the surface he'll be wanting to go straight back down. They stare each other down until the lights go out, and when they come back on, Taker is no longer there.
Commercial Break
Money in the Bank Battle Royal Qualifier
Participants
Evan Bourne, Kaval, Santino Marella, Vance Archer, Curt Hawkins, Goldust, The Hurricane, Yoshi Tatsu, David Hart Smith, Dolph Ziggler, Kane, and The Great Khali
We return for this big opener of a match and each group came out to their brands theme. Lots of heavy action to kick things off, and it isn't long before Khali pushes Ziggler over the top rope. Dolph Ziggler is eliminated (0:25). Everybody soon turns their attention to Khali, and they all go over to eliminate him. However, Kane goes on a rampage and begins to attack all of them, and eliminates 3 in the process. Santino Marella (0:37), The Hurricane (0:45), and Yoshi Tatsu (0:51) are eliminated. With the ring clear of 4 people, things begin to get slower as just basic battling goes on. Smith delivers a powerslam on Archer, to the crowds surprise, and he eventually eliminates him. Vance Archer is eliminated (1:23). Everybody is brawling now throughout the ring. Momentum shifts throughout and it seems like a square dance eventually as everybody swaps who they are fighting with. Smith eventually clotheslines both Goldust and Kaval over the top rope. Goldust (3:34) and Kaval (3:36) are eliminated. The match remains with David Hart Smith, Kane, The Great Khali, Curt Hawkins, and Evan Bourne remain. The more powerful three are in dominant control for a while. It is not long though before Smith surprisingly eliminates Kane. Kane is eliminated (5:01). Khali and Hawkins are fighting each other, Hawkins surprisingly in control. Ryder, who is at ringside, decides to interfere and they double team Khali. Meanwhile, Smith is pounding down on Bourne in the opposing corner. For the next couple minutes this all happens, and soon Khali tosses both Hawkins and Ryder out of the ring. Curt Hawkins is eliminated (7:49). Smith is then double teamed by Bourne and Khali, but he manages to big boot Khali and then works with Bourne. Smith ducks a boot that comes from Khali, and he knocks Bourne out of the ring. Evan Bourne is eliminated (8:09). Smith takes advantage of the oppurtunity and shows dominance by forcing Khali over.
Winner of the match: David Hart Smith (8:18) **1/2
After the match, The Hart Dynasty celebrate the victory, as they will have a huge advantage in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match by being a unit within.
Commercial Break
We return in Paul Heyman's office. In comes The Hardys and Matt says he doesn't feel very comfortable taking on John Morrison tonight, because he doesn't want to hurt him before WrestleMania. The Hardys high five like kids, and Heyman says he doesn't have to be worried about that, and bans Jeff from ringside. He then adds on CM Punk to the list after they argue. Both of them storm out in anger, as Heyman laughs.
Non-Title Match
Intercontinental Champion Kane vs Rob Van Dam
The match is really unfair to start off, because as RVD makes his entrance Drew McIntyre makes an attack from behind. He then brings him to the ring for Kane to pick up the scraps. As Kane delivers tons of powerful moves over and over again, RVD can barely fight back. He does a little bit though, throwing some kicks, but can't really do much do to what McIntyre did, and Kane eventually just tortures him for a couple minutes with strikes and slams before finishing him off with a chokeslam and getting the victory.
Winner of the match: Kane (5:10) **
Following the match, McIntyre gets in the ring and just constantly begins to stomp down on RVD until Kane shows a strange showing and slowly pulls him away. He does it a couple times, calmly. However, after a fourth time, McIntyre slaps him across the face. Kane glares at him and grabs him by the throat. However, McIntyre kicks him in the groin before RVD makes for the save and strikes at him until he gets out of the ring.
Commercial Break
Edge and Christian vs Chris Masters and Carlito
The crowd didn't have anything towards Masters and Carlito, but gave one of the loudest pops in a while as E&C came out. The match was pretty much a flash as Masters makes an early mistake by running straight at them, and is tossed over the top rope. Edge and Christian then stare down Carlito, and Christian walks around. Carlito runs at Edge, but gets a spear to the gut, but Edge doesn't pull him down and Carlito falls back into Christian for the Killswitch, and he gets the pinfall.
Winners of the match: Edge and Christian (0:40) [No Rating]
After the match, E&C grab mics. Edge says when he was searching for a tag team partner to step up to the plate to face Jerishow at WrestleMania, he immediatly thought of Christian. He reminds everybody of their old alliance, and hands the mic off to Christian. He says that nowadays, they have nothing really to go for, so why not just bring back the old gang? Edge mentions that Cryme Tyme went to Raw a while back, so it's time for something new. With that, he steps over to the ropes and asks the time keeper to grab 'his stuff', and he comes over with a box. He hands it off to Edge and he pulls out 2 pairs of huge glasses and funky hats. He hands a pair of glasses and a hat to Christian, who puts it on. They look sort of like what they did years back, and he tells them to hit the music. Some disco form of music comes on and they begin to dance around and Edge scoops the mic up in the process and shouts "5-second pose!", and they stop dancing to pose to the cameras. Jerishow have apparently seen enough of this and make their way out to the ramp. Jericho compares them to kids he saw at a birthday party he saw last week. Before he continues, Christian asks him why he was hanging around little kids birthdays. Jericho is offended quickly by it and tells him to shut his mouth, he saw it at the park. Edge, in a wise voice, replies by saying it must be a hobby of his. Jericho is really getting angry, and says 10 years ago when they did this stuff it wasn't funny, and it isn't funny now. They get into a bickering argument of 'yes it is' and 'no it isn't' until Christian fools Jericho into saying yes it is. Show takes the mic from the now fuming Jericho and says they need to worry about WrestleMania when they get destroyed by the best tag team in the world.
Commercial Break
The Hall of Fame video for Brian Pillman is shown.
WrestleMania Swap Match
Chavo Guerrero vs Booker T
In the first of two WrestleMania Swap matches between this week and next, Booker and Chavo are first up. Action goes back and forth to kick things off and eventually sway towards Chavo. He gets things in the corner and takes ultimate momentum to the crowds surprise. Things eventually end up switching over to Booker and they end up getting in a chop for chop battle. But Booker eventually delivers tons of powerful and signature moves, and Chavo is put down for a while. As Booker continues to be in control for the next couple minutes, Chavo pulls off his own boot and hits Booker in the head when he leans down. He continues to fight with it, the referee incapable of disqualifying him. Chavo ducks a shot back and delivers the 3 Amigos and goes to the top rope for the Frog Splash. However, as he dives off, Booker moves out of the way. Then as Chavo is starting to rise, Booker is already up and drops him with the Scissors Kick.
Winner of the match: Booker T (8:39) ***
Following the match, as Booker is taunting doing the spin-a-rooni, Batista comes running down and attacks him. It isn't long before they get a double team on him, and Rey Mysterio hops onto the apron and springboards onto Chavo. Batista swings at him and they begin to get into a back and forth brawl. Chavo then tries to get at him. However, Booker gets up and they begin to get into a two-on-two fight, and Booker and Rey manage to get them out of the ring on opposite ends eventually.
Commercial Break
Beth Phoenix makes her way out to the arena after the video and gets on the mic. She talks about how at WrestleMania she has to face Raw's champion and shoots back to what was said this past Monday by calling her a joke, and goes on to say she will prove she is the most dominant diva in all of the WWE. It isn't long before the voice of Michelle McCool is heard coming from backstage, and eventually to the ramp of her saying she is the most dominant. She goes onto a rant of how she held the title for 6 months and still deserves to be holding that title, and says she is putting her contendership in check next week, and once she wins the title she will go to WrestleMania. Beth laughs about it and says she better pray that she doesn't get embarassed to badly next week, because she will be wishing she never wanted to make it to WrestleMania 26. McCool walks closer to the ring as they talk trash back and forth, and before anything else happens Layla appears from behind with a steel chair in her hand and hits Beth in the back. She taunts like she just won the title, and McCool gets in to taunt with Layla towards Beth and raises the Women's Title.
We cut backstage and see John Morrison with Josh Mathews. Mathews asks about having to go 2 weeks in a row of facing Hardys, and Morrison says that he doesn't really care because these are two guys who follow the style of a self-centered and arrogant jerk of a champion, and it won't be that long before he takes the title away at WrestleMania, he questions who they will be following then, and walks off. The main event is next.
Commercial Break
John Morrison vs Matt Hardy
We return for this match and Morrison gets a great pop from the crowd. The match kicks off with Morrison in control. He gets a lot of good moves in, and shows a lot of offense that puts him over with the crowd. It soon transitions a couple minutes in to Hardy in control, as he delivers tons of straight strikes to the forehead in the corner and continues it with lots of good suplexes and slams and even a side affect, which he almost gets the pin off of. After a couple minutes of transition momentum with combinations of shots, suplexes, slams, and some high flying action even. Morrison manages to get a lot of kicks in, and ducks a clothesline back before dropkicking Hardy out of the ring.
Commercial Break
We return with Morrison in control still, Hardy seeming lost without anybody at ringside. Hardy gets a cheap thumb to the eye in the corner and continues it up with lots of strike after strike, and delivers some elbows and more cheap moves. Morrison tries to fire back with shots of his own, but Hardy keeps his control over it. He taunts a little to long when setting up the Twist of Fate, and gets pushed off. As he returns off the ropes, Morrison ducks a shot and delivers a dropkick. He continues with a springboard leg drop and a superkick once Hardy rises. He then prepares to hit the Starship Pain, but as Hardy rolls out of the way, he manages to catch it before jumping. He follows Hardy and hits the Moonlight Drive upon the rise and pins him.
Winner of the match: John Morrison (14:32) ****
After the match, which was great, Morrison celebrates. Quickly Jeff comes running down to the ring, but as he gets in, Morrison fends him off by striking at him hard. He ducks a shot from Matt, and he clotheslines his own brother over the top rope. Morrison then works on Matt, and eventually gets him out of the ring. CM Punk then slithers with the World Heavyweight Title in his hands behind Morrison, who is taunting at The Hardys. Punk doesn't realize Morrison look up at the jumbotron, and as he turns to the champ, he quickly ducks the swing of the title and delivers the Moonlight Drive in the middle of the ring. He raises the World Title slowly to end Smackdown. [/font] |

Heel Cena is different, but a good different. I'm glad the superhero Cena isn't challenging Taker because then the streak would surely end. Very nice promo to start the show. DH Smith getting into MITB is awkward. It will be interesting seeing Hart Dynasty in the match though. Have I mentioned Heyman being there is phenomenazingly awesometastic? Lawlz. The McIntyre/RVD/Kane bit was nice. I love that Kane got the win and that he is IC Champ. E&C win in 40 seconds?! Yikes! Awesome post match promo. E&C vs Jerishow was my WM dream match before Jerishow split up in real life. I think that is a much better match than injury prone Edge in a main event match. Booker over Chavo makes sense. It is nice to see Chavo being used as more than a comedy jobber. *skips over women's segment* Good long match between Morrison and Hardy. Awesome ending segment with Punk getting owned. WrestleMania is going to kick all kinds of ass. It is still two weeks away?! Damn.
