WWE RAW: Monday 5th April 2010...Hmm, interesting that Vince McMahon started off the show, and I like that he is making new stars week in and week out; that is accomplished. I am absolutely not liking the way you fired The Undertaker, though. You should have at least had him attack Vince somehow or cause something to happen before firing 'Taker. It is a unique way to get rid of Undertaker for the mean time, though. Hopefully it picks up when he returns around winter. I sense a revival of a 'Taker against McMahon rivalry beginning. Meh, can't say I enjoyed the opening contest, as it just wasted MVP and Mark Henry. Sure, I dislike you killing Billy Kidman and Evan Bourne; Santino Marella I don't care about. It did nothing, though. Show overcoming everybody with assistance from Chris Jericho still confuses matters. You need to get Kidman, Bourne, MVP and Mark Henry doing something; they deserve so much better than what they're being treated like here. Jerishow getting a rematch with Edge and Christian in a tables, ladders and chairs match is nice, Extreme Rules is getting bigger and better I must admit. John Cena getting in Vince's face is good; hoping to see Vince try and take down Cena from this point onwards as the spring's main feud on the RAW brand. Interesting mixed tag team bout with Maryse and Jack Swagger losing to Kofi Kingston and Serena Mancini; I feel that just this once though, that Serena should have pinned Maryse, as it would have made her look more credible. The Miz beating Triple H with assistance from Shawn Michaels is sweet; big way to get Miz over. I feel that Triple H should win at Extreme Rules in last man standing; as then HBK can disappear for a few months to take a break. Ted Dibiase beating Shawn Michaels makes things a little clustered though, I think. Lastly, big main event with John Cena and Randy Orton; Orton winning is for the best. The ending was fine. Overall, it was a decent show, and since WWE ratings drop after WrestleMania, these big RAW main events are definitely a good way to keep things going. Extreme Rules shaping up good, but this week of RAW wasn't as good as last week's.

- Wow. Crazy way to open RAW there. - As I expected, Bourne and Kidman jobbed during this  - TLC should be AWESOME - I see a Cena v Vince feud, which would be great tbh. - Serena and Kofi collecting the win is great - Miz beating Triple H in a dirty fashion is fantastic for him, and it builds HBK v HHH, which is heating up! - DiBiase wins by DQ, which is good for him. I have to wonder why Cody isn't on the show "/ - I really like Cena's direction atm. - Triple H playing the badass guy once more is awesome. Reminds me of the 05/06 him. - Miz gets an upperhand over Cena, and Orton gets a win in a huge ME. Great stuff - The aftermath was good, but again, where's Cody? Unless I missed something, he should have been on this show. Great Stuff overall, built towards Backlash Extreme Rules well. |

The Undertaker's 'Firing'
Fans are assuming that Undertaker's firing was either legitimate to show that he is leaving the WWE - or that it is just to keep him off the air well he takes his post-Mania break. Expect Taker to be back by late Summer/end of Fall.
The Hart Dynasty Plans
As it has been seen a lot on Smackdown as of late, Tyson Kidd and DH Smith have been getting into little arguments over Smith costing Kidd matches. However, do not expect the team to split but to be taken under the wing of a new manager soon to rekindle their flame as a tag team.
Cody Rhodes
Cody Rhodes was nowhere to be seen on Raw this past week - don't expect him to be around for a couple weeks as he has been having some small nagging injuries for the past month. Acorrding to himself, he is not seriously injured and there should be no worries as he will be back real soon.[/font] |

ECW: April 6, 2010
Allstate Arena: Rosemont, IL
The opening pyros go off and we are welcomed to ECW. However, it isn't long before accompanied by Abraham Washington, The Uso's make their way down to the ring. Washington gets on the mic and welcomes everybody to ECW. He says that first of all he wants to introduce Illinois to the 'next best tag team in the history of WWE' Jimmy and Jules Uso. The crowd boos and he hands the mic off to Jules and he introduces himself and says that him and his brother are second generation stars of one of the most underrated stars, Rikishi. He hands the mic off to his brother, and he says that they want to make their father proud and they are going to make a statement here tonight. Washington takes the mic back and says that last week they took out Ezekiel Jackson, and quite good too, and in the same night William Regal made the number one contenders match go to a no contest. He continues ranting on how that he is possibly one of the greatest ECW champions in history, and says that he believes in Regal. With that, he announces at Extreme Rules he will be defending the ECW Title in a triple threat Extreme Rules Match against both Tommy Dreamer and Bryan Danielson. With that, William Regal then makes his way down to the ring and starts to complain that this is completely unfair. He says that he has been the ECW Champion for about 4 months now - and at Extreme Rules he coul lose that title without being pinned. Washington says Regal has nothing to worry about - he has plans and announces tonight his new stars The Uso's will take on Regal's challengers in the main event! Regal seems satisfied with it.
Commercial Break
Footage is shown from Smackdown where Escobar yelled at Vickie Guerrero and left her, and Vickie seeming interest in Mike Knox afterward.
Mike Knox w/Vickie Guerrero vs Eric Escobar
The match begins with Escobar trying to work things out with Mike, but it doesn't do anything as Knox just boots him to the mat. He viciously strikes him down hard and then in the corner. Escobar starts to deliver some blows back, but Knox drops him with a back body drop. Knox just continues to deliver a bunch of power strikes across the back and a few hard slams. As Escobar is tired, Vickie screams at him on the outside and eventually Knox hits a bunch of clotheslines and gets a few near falls after a couple minutes of just domination. As Escobar begins to fight back and hits a hard neckbreaker, and prepares for the Pure Escobar but Vickie grabs his ankle. He yells at her on the outside and she eventually lets go with him pissed. He backs up and is dropped with a very hard Knox Out and Knox gets the pinfall victory.
Winner of the match: Mike Knox (6:42) **
Following the match, Guerrero gets into the ring applauding Knox, and he strokes his beard. Guerrero demands some things toward him, an he pulls Escobar to his feet and delivers a brutal powerbomb and follows it up with another Knox Out. They leave the ring, Knox expressionless and Vickie ecstatic.
We cut backstage to see Charlie Haas walking down a hallway, he is in 6 man tag team action next.
Commercial Break
6-Man Tag Team Match
Charlie Haas, Zack Ryder, and Curt Hawkins vs Goldust, The Hurricane, and Vladimir Kozlov
All six men get down to the ring, and Hurricane starts off with Hawkins. Lots of back and forth action between them to start. However, Hurricane gets the upper hand with lots of fast moves but quickly they have some frequent tags between team mates and eventually Kozlov is tagged in and delivers some hard slams to Haas, Ryder, and Hawkins. Then he begins to hit some quick strikes to the legal man, Haas, and overpowers him. However, Hawkins and Ryder show a different side from last week and work well together with a double dropkick on Kozlov before assaulting Hurricane and Goldust on the outside. Haas begins to work down hard on Kozlov, and eventually delivers a bunch of ferocious shots in the corner. As Kozlov goes for a clothesline, Haas ducks under it and knocks the Moscow Mauler to the mat. He eventually works in the Haas of Pain on Kozlov to the crowds surprise, but Kozlov doesn't tap out. After he makes it to the ropes some more tags are made to the different superstars, and Goldust hits a few strikes on Hawkins before Haas makes the blind tag and delivers a huge big boot and then locks in the Haas of Pain after some domination and makes Goldust tap out for the win.
Winners of the match: Charlie Haas, Curt Hawkins, and Zack Ryder (10:55) **1/2
After the match, Haas celebrates as he has made a veteran now tap out. Hawkins and Ryder seem to have a little tension between them on the outside, but much better then the previous week. Hurricane checks on Goldust, but Haas shows no mercy and takes him out with a german suplex. He taunts to the crowd once more.
Commercial Break
We return and backstage we have Abraham Washington in his office. Paul Heyman steps in and he asks Washington who the hell he thinks he is wanting to kill ECW off. Washington says that ECW was always crap until he became the General Manager. Heyman says that the heart and soul of ECW was ripped out when Vince McMahon took control over it - and he is damn lucky he doesn't bash his skull in right now. Washington warns him if he lays a hand on him, his friends will take care of him. The Uso's step up behind him and smirk. Heyman and Washington stare down before he walks out.
We then go to see Tommy Dreamer sitting in his locker room preparing for action. Bryan Danielson comes in and he asks Tommy how he is doing. He says things are great and is really looking forward to Extreme Rules. Danielson tells him Tommy has been like a mentor to him these past few months - but he won't think twice to take any oppurtunity to take the title in that match. Tommy says he understands; but he isn't going to be any different. Danielson asks him if he is ready, and they walk out of the locker room as the main event is next.
Commercial Break
Before the main event, William Regal makes his way down to ring side and takes a seat at the announce table.
The Uso's w/Abraham Washington vs Tommy Dreamer and Bryan Danielson
After all men come down to the ring, Jimmy starts things off with Dreamer and delivers some hard shots to kick things off. They go back and forth for a little while, but quickly Tommy takes control with some heavy shots. They go back and forth quickly - Jimmy manages to make the tag to Jules and they start to double team Dreamer for a bit. Jules complete controls him with some hard shots and Washington is satisfied on the outside. However, Dreamer ducks a running clothesline in the corner and manages to make the tag to Danielson. He gets on the top turnbuckle and delivers a hard DDT off the jump. He gets a near fall, and after a few minutes of control from Danielson, Jules delivers a huge Samoan Drop to sway the momentum his way.
Commercial Break
We return and Jimmy is in control over Danielson in the corner pounding down on his forehead with multiple punches. After a couple minutes of control between The Uso's with frequent tags and working down the rookie. Danielson manages to scurry away and makes the tag to Dreamer. He gets in and begins to pound at the brothers. Washington hops onto the apron and Dreamer glares at him. He thinks about hitting him, but remembers he is the General Manager. Meanwhile, Regal hits Danielson with the ECW Title on the outside. Dreamer gets pissed off at him and starts to yell. The Uso's come up behind him and deliver a double Samoan Spike, and Jules gets the pinfall.
Winners of the match: The Uso's (13:07) ***
After the match, Regal gets into the ring along with Washington, and they all stand tall together with a smirk, possibly signaling a new formed alliance. Dreamer coughs in pain as he rolls around, as Danielson stirs on the outside glaring at the inside of the ring to close out ECW.

I really liked that opening. And I liked the way that Regal will have a big final defense of the ECW Championship at Extreme Rules, will be good stuff. The odd couple splits, and sadly I think Escobar's on his way out. Glad Knox is getting a push, even if it is with.. Vickie ¬_¬ I love how Knox is just a monster of sorts, just don't have him speak since his voice sucks. The 6 man tag was great, and I think you've done a good job of building Haas as a threat again by allowing him to get the win with the Haas of Pain!! I loved the aftermath for him as well. Heyman's passion is great, and I hope something becomes of it. Dreamer and Danielson have had an interesting relationship on ECW, would like to see one of them beat Regal at Extreme Rules. Regal at the announce table, I sense he will get involved. And he does, as I expected. Builds all three heels as a threat. The only problem I have is Washington's involvement, though I see Heyman being a manager to Dreamer/Danielson soon. Good edition of ECW overall man.

ECW, good ECW Title match for Extreme Rules, I hope Tommy Dreamer wins. Very happy to see Mike KNox win here and I am glad you kept Vickie with him. I like the heels winning here, adn this Haas push is great. Paul Heyman possibly taking over in the future? I think the Uso's victory was obvious as it was their debut really. Great way to finish ECW, good show.

- I love that The Usos (Jimmy & Jules) are on ECW, and when they mentioned their father Rikishi, I love them for that, as Rikishi is underrated. Jimmy & Jules are the best tag team going right now, or they could be given a few years. Abraham Washington I feel he will just hold The Usos back as a team, so it would be better for Jimmy & Jules if they got drafted to RAW. Because look at this possibility, Randy Orton starts a New Legacy incarnation with new members first starting with The Usos as the tag team of this New Legacy stable, then you add a fourth man into this New Legacy who is a 2nd or 3rd generation star that can be the US Champion. Rikishi's sons aligning themselves with Randy Orton would make them even stronger as a tag team and Randy can mold Jimmy & Jules into stars.
- But other than that, I am now starting to see a Dreamer heel turn being set up with him & Danielson
- Regal since he's ECW Champion, at Extreme Rules, I see Regal retaining the title then losing it at the next PPV
- But other than that, good job on your diary man
- Cannot wait for the draft, I wish it were here right now

-Triple Threat match at Extreme Rules should be good, looking forward to that. Not sold on the Usos yet though
-Not sure about Knox getting a win here, but if you want to push him again, then it's a good call. Pairing him with Vickie is questionable
-Loving the Charlie Haas push and how ruthless he is. Absolutely loving it
-The main event was very good, much better than I expected and I like the Usos a little more after it
Decent ECW, not one of your best shows. But the Haas push and Danielson in the Title picture are both great things.

Smackdown: April 9, 2010
Allstate Arena: Rosemont, IL
The opening pyros go off, signaling that Smackdown is underway. We are told by Matt Striker and Jim Ross of what is going down tonight, including Rey Mysterio vs CM Punk in the main event!.
Before anything else, Vince McMahon makes his way down to the ring with a grin to a chorus of boos. He gets on the mic and says that he knows these people are just upset that he fired The Undertaker on Raw - and even more boos erupt. He goes on saying that he has already explained himself for the reason he did this - and he has been disrespected ever since he did it though, even from John Cena. The crowd pops to his name, and Vince tells them that Cena is nothing but a joke. He continues by saying that The Undertaker's career was also a joke - it was nothing but absolute garbage and regardless of what these people think or what they say, Undertaker is fired. McMahon says that he has been told repeatedly that the ratings are going to go down and the whole company is going to go down - but he has other ideas. He says that he knows of people around this business who could easily top The Undertaker, and they will. Before he can say anything more, Kane makes his way down to the ring to Vince's displeasure. He stares down the chairman, and Vince asks what he wants. The Big Red Machine keeps on staring and Vince asks him again - this time with anger, and calls him stupid. Kane snags the microphone from him and says that he wants Vince McMahon to hire back his brother. He says that him and Undertaker may not have gotten along over the years, but he knows that Undertaker isn't dead weight. Vince demands the microphone back, but Kane won't give it up, so he takes a new one. He tells Kane that Undertaker may still have a little left in the tank - but he doesn't give a damn, he doesn't want him around here anymore and that's final. Kane grabs him by the throat and backs him to the corner - the crowd popping. But out of nowhere, behind Kane, comes Batista and he clotheslines him off Vince. He starts to stomp down on him and yanks him up a bit before delivering a devastating spinebuster, a spear on the rise, and lastly a sickening Batista Bomb. He stands over Kane as Vince fixes his tie. He says to Kane that he has an opponent at Extreme Rules - Batista. He then says that The Animal will send him straight back to hell - because this match will be an Inferno Match. Him and Batista taunt as Kane lays on the mat motionless.
Commercial Break
If Rob Van Dam Wins, He Gets an Intercontinental Title Shot
Rob Van Dam vs Intercontinental Champion Drew McIntyre [/b] As both men get down to the ring, the bill sounds. The match kicks off with Van Dam quickly unloading with strikes and quick kicks. McIntyre lays him out with a vicious clothesline and begins to stomp the hell out of him before applying different variations of mat submissions. After a couple minutes of control, RVD gets back to his feet with him and delivers some rough kicks. He continues to unload with ultimate momentum. As things pick up, he delivers some good moves in the corner and McIntyre almost gets pinned multiple times. The Intercontinental Champion manages to get some work in, showing some talent with some nicely hit suplexes and slams. The crowd starts to get into the match, and RVD delivers a spinning wheel kick and a Rolling Thunder. He taunts to the crowd and prepares for the 5 Star Frog Splash, but McIntyre slips out of the ring. Disappointed, RVD follows after him around the ring, but gets kicked in the gut and thrown into the announce table. McIntyre takes his title and prepares to walk away, but notices RVD getting up and he strikes him with the gold. Winner via disqualification: Rob Van Dam (10:04) ***Following the match, McIntyre walks up the ramp taunting the title to the crowd, as RVD receives help from the referee.Commercial BreakWe return to see a video of David Hart Smith and Tyson Kidd in a training ring against two opponents. Natalya is cheering them on from the outside, and a figure that can't be made out as to who it is stands watching with his arms crossed and nodding, then we return to the arena.The Hart Dynasty w/Natalya vs The RotundosThe bell rings and Kidd starts off with Bo. They go back and forth a bit at each other, and Kidd quickly gets the upper hand with a series of fast paced moves, including a series of punches and dropkicks. He makes the tag to Smith, and they double team a bit before Smith just controls. They seem a lot more in sync with each other then they have in the past few weeks - but Bo starts to fight back a bit. He manages to tag in big Duke, and he takes down both Dynasty members. He begins to pound down on Smith, but after taking to long to come back off the ropes, he is met with a hard clothesline. With that, for the next couple minutes the Dynasty makes frequent tags to each other, and deliver some nice moves on Duke. However, Bo gets tagged in soon and he takes some control over Smith, but Kidd makes the blind tag. After a little while, he delivers the Springboard Neckbreaker, and Kidd gets the pinfall for his team. Winners of the match: The Hart Dynasty (9:49) **1/2Following the match, The Dynasty seem satisfied with themselves and hug each other and taunt with Natalya.Commercial BreakNon-Title MatchWorld Heavyweight Champion John Morrison vs Dolph Ziggler[/b] Both men prepare for action as the bell rings. A former feud between the two is within the past, and Ziggler kicks things off with a few shots to the World Champion, but Morrison takes the upper hand with some shots of his own and a beautiful dropkick. He continues with some nice variations of kicks, and delivers a springboard crossbody but gets a 2 count on the pin attempt. Ziggler gets a bit of momentum as he cheaply rakes the eyes and begins to beat down on Morrison in the corner. He hits a nice clothesline, and follows it with a bulldog in the middle of the ring. He gets a near fall and for the next minute he applies a mat sleeper hold. Morrison manages to reach the ropes eventually. Once up, they go back and forth for a couple minutes before Ziggler hits a Zig Zag out of nowhere, but fails to get the winning pinfall, and he gets frustrated. Commercial BreakWe return, and Morrison is in control now as he is delivering 10 punches. After the 9th, he delivers a hurricanrana and pops back to his feet. He follows up with a lot of control over Ziggler for the next couple minutes. However, as he goes for the Starship Pain, Ziggler manages to roll out of the way. He goes for the Zig Zag again, but Morrison manages to reverse it and keeps Ziggler and himself on their feet, and he delivers the Moonlight Drive out of nowhere. The World Champion gets back to his feet and looks around the arena with a grin. He walks over to the corner, climbs up to the top turnbuckle, and hits a nice Starship Pain and gets the pinfall. Winner of the match: John Morrison (13:49) ***1/2Following the match, the crowd seemed really pumped up from what was a good match. Morrison taunts with his World Title.
We cut backstage and see CM Punk watching the television in his locker room and mumbles to himself that the World Title is his.Commercial BreakWe return, and Jerishow makes their way down to the ring. Jericho gets on the mic and says that on Raw, the greatest tag team in the world once again proved themselves - as Big Show defeated 5 meaningless so-called talent in one match, and now they get their rematch at Extreme Rules. Show takes the mic and says that regardless of what these people think of them, they can easily prove that they are the best because they will beat Edge and Christian at their own game in a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs Match. Jericho speaks up again and says that at WrestleMania it was all a fluke. He says that back at Royal Rumble, when Edge's big return happened both him and Christian were eliminated by Jerishow. An annoying shrill of crying is heard around the arena, and E&C walk out to the ramp pretending to cry. Edge says, whimpering between each sentence, that when he returned at the Royal Rumble and got screwed over by Chris Jericho and the fattest man on Earth, he didn't know what to do. Christian says that he thought the had it won, but he almost got eaten in the process so he had to be eliminated. Jericho tells them that they need to stop acting like little kids if they want to be anywhere near worthy of holding their Unified Tag Team Titles. They get serious for a moment and Edge asks him if they really want serious. He keeps asking it and they say yes, and he says fine. With that, him and Christian drop their microphones and run down to the ring, sliding their gold to the side. They get up and start to brawl back and forth with Jerishow, eventually taking Jericho to the outside. Show is on one knee, and as Christian strikes at him Edge brings a ladder into the ring and hits him with it, sending the big man down. Jericho is seen on the outside putting a table up and gets in the ring with a chair. He ducks being struck by the ladder and clocks Edge over the head with it. He hits Christian in the gut, and Big Show gets up. He grabs Christian by the throat and chokeslams him through the table on the outside. Jerishow stand tall over their opponents before we head to commercial. Commercial BreakWe return, and Josh Mathews is backstage with Rey Mysterio. He asks him about facing CM Punk tonight - and Rey tells him he is glad he gets the opportunity to face Punk again, but things are going to be different tonight because he will make sure Punk is hit with the 619 and pinned with the 1-2-3.Handicap MatchWomen's Champion Beth Phoenix vs Michelle McCool and Layla[/b] This handicap match starts as soon as the bell rings as Layla is quickly thrown to the mat and tossed around the ring by Beth. She seems intent on just destroying her. However, Layla manages to make the tag to McCool and she shows some offense against the Women's Champion. She taunts to the crowd but gets driven into the mat with a kick in the gut preceding it. Beth complete dominates her, but McCool manages to slap her across the face and stun her enough to tag in Layla, who looks scared. Beth forces her in the ring and just completely makes her into nothing with a series of slams, and tops it off with the most important one - the Glam Slam. She covers Layla and gets the pin. Winner of the match: Beth Phoenix (6:15) **Following the match, McCool takes the Women's Title and Beth gets up to yell at her. McCool starts to back up the ramp with it, and Beth follows. Cameras follow them to the back and Beth is searching around. After about a minute or so, Layla comes up behind her and clotheslines her. Then McCool comes around and they begin to stomp her down. They leave in satisfaction, McCool putting the Women's Title over her shoulder.Commercial BreakMatt Hardy and R-Truth vs Carlito and Chris MastersThe bell rings and Truth starts things off with Carlito. They go back and forth a bit with each other, but things quickly sway to Truth as he gets a huge amount of momentum delivering a series of strikes. He manages to make the tag to Hardy, who delivers some nice shots of his own. However, Carlito fires back with some and makes the tag to Masters, who overpowers Hardy with a vicious clothesline and a few slams. He picks him back up, but Hardy manages to struggle himself to fight back, and dives over to his corner and tags Truth back in. He controls Masters now, hitting a lot of kicks and even a couple clotheslines, sending Masters down repeatedly. Carlito gets tagged back in, but Truth continues his momentum. He asks Hardy if he wants in, and lets him. Hardy delivers some strikes and taunts a bit, but as he taunts when preparing for Twist of Fate, Carlito takes advantage off it and pulls himself around to deliver the backstabber. Meanwhile, Masters takes Truth down to the outside floor, and Carlito pins Hardy for the 3. Winners of the match: Carlito and Chris Masters (8:56) **1/2After the match, Carlito and Masters celebrate. Truth gets in the ring and comforts Matt, who is angry with himself and he pushes Truth around. He doesn't give up, and is pushed again. Truth then gets up in Hardy's face and tells him he just wants to help him. Matt calms down and Truth helps him out of the ring.
We cut to a hallway and see CM Punk walking, the main event is next.Commercial BreakCM Punk vs Rey MysterioThe bell rings as both men get to the ring, and Mysterio is quickly slapped by Punk. He unloads with a fury of strikes, taking the early momentum. He hits a few kicks and a hurricanrana, sending Punk out of the ring and he follows with a springboard over the top rope. They trade blows once they are both up for a little while, but both get into the ring at the count of 9. Punk takes advantage off it, by delivering some shots of his own and works on Mysterio against the ropes and in the corner for a couple minutes. He goes for his signature knee in the corner, but Rey manages to slip under it and hits a huge dropkick to send the #1 contender in the corner. Mysterio gets fired up and hits the Bronco Buster, but Punk lifts him up in the middle of it and drops him face first into the turnbuckle, and follows it up with the running knee and bulldog combination. He awaits Mysterio to rise, and as he does he sets up for the GTS, but Mysterio pulls himself off and delivers tons of strikes, kicks, and take down moves for the next couple minutes. As they rise following a hurricanrana, Mysterio ducks a clothesline to drop Punk between the top and middle rope. He then hits a hard 619, sending Punk flying back. He waits for him to get to his feet, and he jumps off the top rope but is caught in the arms of Punk, and he pulls Mysterio onto his shoulders and delivers the GTS and pins him for the 3. Winner of the match: CM Punk (12:24) ***Punk taunts to the crowd following, and calls for a microphone. He sits Mysterio up and asks him if he wants to quit. Mysterio says no, and gets kicked in the jaw. He asks again, and Mysterio says no. Punk gets angry and yanks him to his feet against the ropes, and slaps him across the face and asks again. Once more, he receives a no answer. He kicks Mysterio in the groin, and doesn't bother to ask now and begins to pound him across the head with the mic repeatedly. It isn't long before John Morrison comes rushing down to the ring, and Punk quickly slips out of the ring before he can be hit. Morrison checks down on Rey, as referees come down to help. Morrison stands and stares Punk down as he backs up the ramp with a sick smile on his face of satisfaction. [/center][/size][/font] |

SmackDown, a bit of a random match made, especially Inferno, not too sure on that one. Glad to see a DQ win for RVD, that still means he's a contender now, right? I like the sound of that Hart Dynasty promo, I wonder who it is. Glad to see The Hart Dynasty defeat The Rotundos. I am pleased to see John Morrison over Dolph Ziggler here as he is the World Heavyweight Champion. Great promo with JeriShow and Edge/Christian. I'm glad Beth Phoenix wins this, makes her look as dominant as ever, but the aftermath was good too as it is realistic that LayCool should get their own back. I was surprised to see Carlito and Chris Masters win here, but pleased. I see a possible heel turn again for Hardy in the weeks to come. I am happy to see CM Punk win the Main Event as it means he gets some momentum going for his match with Morrison at Extreme Rules. Tag team match for next week, possibly? I think the aftermath was great with Punk asking Mysterio if he wants to quit. Great SmackDown.

ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 6th April 2010...Decent promo to kick off the show with these Uso's in the ring. Abraham Washington and the Samoans in the ring to kick off is good, as it explains who these two Uso's are. Rikishi coming in would be nice, but would be better if Abraham Washington continued managing them regardless of situation. William Regal coming out and mentioning it is unfair...after the Ruthless Roundtable's involvement in ECW, this seems very hypocritical for Regal to do. I dislike that Mike Knox and Eric Escobar are suddenly feuding; you're just destroying good teams now. They are useful and them disbanding here I dislike. Knox over Escobar is strange, too. Not the best opening contest in the world. Knowing the main event was a tag team match, I'd have opened up with the six man tag team match in the ring. No, Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins need to stay together now. Unless you split them in the Draft, I will not be alright with Ryder and Hawkins splitting up again. Not when Knox and Escobar are disbanding as it is. Lastly, Uso's main eventing may be a little too soon, especially winning against Tommy Dreamer and Bryan Danielson, but it fuels William Regal's competition which is nice. Alright show overall, nothing too big though.
WWE SmackDown: Friday 9th April 2010...Vince McMahon fired The Undertaker on RAW, so I feel he should stick to RAW rather than trailing on both brands, unless he sticks to SmackDown from this point onwards. Kane getting in his face is great, but him being given Batista to fight at Extreme Rules was random, and those two really should fight tonight to ignite the feud to a rematch at Extreme Rules. Also the Inferno match stipulation instantly...rushed decision. And Kane will have to lose, since Batista wears trunks and I doubt he'll take a burning. Rob Van Dam beating Drew McIntyre instantly doesn't do a thing for McIntyre. Drew has only just won the WWE Intercontinental Championship and he's been beaten down by RVD and given a loss to RVD. It really hasn't done a thing for him and has given Van Dam too much momentum. The Hart Dynasty beating The Rotundos is great; Bo and Duke Rotundo have not impressed me in the slightest and are a copycat next generation team of what Tyson Kidd and David Hart Smith already have going. John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler had a solid first hour main event, really helped bring up Morrison's in ring quality and the prestige of the World Heavyweight Championship - without the belt even being on the line. Also helped Ziggler, as he's moving back into mainstream things on SmackDown. He never should have lost the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Chris Jericho and Big Show vs Edge and Christian in a TLC match would be solid at Extreme Rules; just hope this means that WWE TLC: Tables, Ladders and Chairs is gone from the calendar. Hoping this concludes the WWE Unified Tag Team Championship rivalry too. Beth Phoenix beating both Michelle McCool and Layla is smart. McCool and Layla are a team that should be retained after the Draft. Carlito and Chris Masters I swear are RAW guys, but nevermind. Matt Hardy and R-Truth need a boost of momentum. Lastly, great match between CM Punk and Rey Mysterio to close down the show. The occurences after with Morrison and Punk was good and it was a great show overall; show of the week.

Good job on Smackdown, really good job, I just cannot wait until the WWE Draft in your thread, because I am interested to see which big name stars get moved in the draft, like which Smackdown stars are going to RAW or ECW, and which RAW superstars are going to Smackdown or ECW, and to see which ECW stars go to either RAW or Smackdown?
Morrison will make Punk say I quit, guaranteed, as Morrison just won the title, I am sure he will not be a transitional champion
DiBiase will beat Orton his former mentor to become WWE Champion at Extreme Rules
Danielson I think will win the ECW Championship in that Triple-Threat Extreme Rules Match, and Danielson is a star in the making, hopefully he will get drafted to Raw or Smackdown with his title still in tact
Miz will beat Cena that is a given
Imagine Kane setting Batista on fire in that Inferno Match, but I don't think it is going to happen, I see Batista winning, and Kane going back to his Masked Kane persona making Kane all that much more powerful, hopefully bringing Paul Bearer back along with Kane
E & C will defeat Jerishow at Extreme Rules, that is a given, and either Show will turn on Jericho or it will be the other way around
I see Michaels winning Last Man Standing seeing as how HHH beat him at Mania, and HHH has had pretty much the upper hand in this feud so I see Shawn beating him in Last Man Standing at Extreme Rules, making them even

Extreme Rules looks great. Like seeing Kane in a decent match and the return of the Inferno Match! Punk and Morrison is a good feud. Maybe a Matt Hardy heel turn? That could help.

Raw: April 12, 2010
O2 Arena: London, England
The opening pyrotechnics display go off and we are welcomed to Raw. Randy Orton makes his way down to the ring and gets on the mic. He says to the crowd that in just two weeks at Extreme Rules he faces off against 'the fool in' Ted DiBiase. He continues by saying that Ted really needs to get checked into reality because he is no where near ready to take on the challenge of going for the WWE Championship. He says that he may of won the Royal Rumble match but that was a fluke and he shouldn't think just because of that he deserves to be on the same level of him. Ted DiBiase makes his way down to the ring and tells Randy that he is in reality - because he did win the Royal Rumble match, and he did face Randy at WrestleMania. Orton points out that he lost that match, and Ted says Cody did. He goes on saying that Randy was the worst mentor that ever existed and he knows deep down it is true. He used him and Cody and thought they didn't deserve a damn thing. He claims at Extreme Rules he will take the WWE Title from Orton. As he begins to walk out, Orton clotheslines him out of the ring. He follows him slowly and stomps down rapidly, before yanking Ted up and tossing him into the steel steps. He unloads with strikes to the head before preparing to punt him. However, referees come down to stop Orton before he can. Michael Cole questions if either of the teams in the main event will be able to coexist tonight.
Commercial Break
Non-Title Match
United States Champion Kofi Kingston vs Jack Swagger
The bell rings and Kofi begins the match with a bit of control delivering some sharp and hard kicks, but quickly Swagger gets the upper hand after delivering some rough clotheslines. He hits some powerful slams in a series of control, and taunts to the crowd but Kingston begins to strike back at him and eventually knocks him down. He delivers an early Boom Drop, but can't execute the Trouble in Paradise as Swagger ducks under it and unloads with control. He hits some quick strikes in the corner and Kofi can't fight back as he delivers some nice amateur wrestling moves and then transitions into some unorthodox moves. He gets ready to deliver the Gut Wrench Powerbomb, but Kofi manages to slip off his shoulders and take back some control by delivering constant shots to the head and springing off the ropes with multiple springboard attacks. He hits the Boom Drop again, and once he is up to his feet he prepares for the Trouble in Paradise. However, Swagger dips under it and decks him in the stomach. He pulls him up for the Gut Wrench Powerbomb and executes. Kofi lays out, and Swagger gets the surprising three count.
Winner of the match: Jack Swagger (8:48) ***
Swagger celebrates his big victory over the United States Champion following the match, and takes the US Title and puts it over his shoulder as if he just won it. He leaves it over the fallen body of Kofi and exits with a wide grin across his face and motions that the title is his.
Commercial Break
Diva's Championship
Maryse© vs Serena Mancini
These two divas go back and forth to kick things off, but quickly Maryse gains the upper hand. She throws Mancini down to the ground repeatedly, but she keeps getting up. Mancini fights back at her delivering some rough shots to the head over and over again, and the champion backs down quickly, but is kicked in the gut then hit with some more shots. The referee separates them, but Maryse gets a cheap shot on Mancini and takes her down. She taunts to the crowd and yanks Mancini up once more slowly having her control, and she eventually goes for the French Kiss but Mancini manages to lift her up and hang her up on the ropes. Mancini pops to her feet and delivers a powerslam, and pins Maryse for the 3!
Winner and NEW Diva's Champion: Serena Mancini (5:21) **
Following the match, Mancini is surprised that she won the gold. But quickly, Maryse gets back up and begins to stomp her down on the mat. She throws a fit by smashing Mancini's head into the mat repeatedly, before getting back up and taunting to the crowd with the Diva's Title.
We cut backstage to see MVP and Mark Henry. They step into Teddy Long's office and tell him that they are sick of being ran over here on Raw. Teddy tells them they might want to step it up - MVP says that when they were aligned with Randy Orton as his body guards, they were doing fine. But now they are being pushed over by guys like Big Show. Teddy says that he had a match planned for tonight to be Evan Bourne and Billy Kidman vs Jerishow, but he can change that up and adds MVP and Henry to the match.
Commercial Break
The Miz makes his way down to the ring to a loud chorus of boos. He gets on the mic and tells them to be quiet - he knows they are all just jealous that he is simply better then all of them. He raises the Money in the Bank briefcase and says this is just another reason why. He then says that another reason he is better then all of them is because he can beat John Cena unlike each and every single one of them. He gets some more heat and he goes on saying last week he defeated Triple H - somebody who is better then John Cena, and they don't think he can win at Extreme Rules? As he continues to rant on about him being the best, before he can say his 'awesome' bit, John Cena makes his way down to the ring quickly. He gets on the mic and tells Miz to shut his damn mouth because he has something to say. He says that he has beat Triple H more times then The Miz has talked crap towards him. Secondly, last week the only reason he beat Triple H is because Shawn Michaels distracted him, and third - he cost him his match against Randy Orton in the main event and embarrassed him. Miz stays clam and tells Cena that these people are sick and tired of him coming out every single week and acting like he is superman. Miz says Cena is just like superman - overrated. Cena has heard enough of that and decks Miz in the jaw. He unloads with a fury of blows, and lifts him up for the Attitude Adjustment, but Miz manages to slip off. Miz scoops up the briefcase and smashes it into Cena's face. He takes the mic again and shouts that he is The Miz, and he is awesome.
Commercial Break
Triple Threat Tag Team Match
Jerishow vs Evan Bourne and Billy Kidman vs Mark Henry and MVP
All six men come down to the ring, and Bourne starts off with Jericho. They go back and forth quickly, Jericho soon getting the upper hand. He mocks Bourne, and continues to beat him down before forcing a tag to Mark Henry. He gets in and works on Bourne, but he forces a tag back to Jericho, and he gets in angry. MVP wants in, and Henry allows it. Him and Jericho go back and forth before MVP takes control with a few quick shots and drags, before tagging in Big Show. He gets in, but then realizes him and Jericho are in the ring with each other. Jericho tags in Kidman, and he gets in to strike at Show. But it doesn't take much for him to get shoved down then hit with a big boot. Then all the faces come into the ring and try to take Show down, but he begins to unload with shots to the gut to bring them down. Jericho cheaply hits Henry with a steel chair on the outside, and then Bourne as he hits off the ropes. The referee tries to stop Show from beating up everybody, and as Kidman dives off the top rope he is hit with the knockout punch and is pinned by Show.
Winners of the match: Jerishow (9:18) ***
Following the match, Jerishow continues to raise hell by attacking their now defeated opponents. However, Unified Tag Team Champions Edge and Christian come running down to the ring and quickly scare Jerishow off. They taunt at them before looking around the arena. Edge gets on the mic and asks them if they are surprised to see them here. They pop, and he goes on to ask if they want to see Jerishow not be cowards and bring themselves down to the ring. Show and Jericho look at each other, Christian now encouraging them to come down. They begin to, but they eventually back out to the crowds disappointment.
Commercial Break
Sheamus vs Hornswoggle
Sheamus seemed really pissed that he has to face Hornswoggle, the crowd chuckling about it. As the bell rings, Hornswoggle bites Sheamus's leg, but gets kicked away. He cowers in the corner, the Celtic Warrior cornering him. However, he shows a bit of sympathy and grabs Hornswoggle by the jacket and tossing him over his shoulder. He steps out of the ring and walks up the ramp with Hornswoggle screaming. The referee counts to 10 in confusion.
Winner of the match: Double Count-Out (0:42) (no rating)
We cut backstage to follow them afterward, and Sheamus forces Hornswoggle against a wall and asks him what he thinks he is doing. Hornswoggle talks under his breath and Sheamus tells him he doesn't want this secret getting out, and he needs to stay out of his business. He calls Hornswoggle an embarrassment to their culture by being the complete stereotypical leprechaun, and puts him down on the floor. He points at him and says to stay out of his way again.
We then go to see Santino Marella sitting next to Teddy Long with a bucket of popcorn. He points at the television and says that this is a good story - he wants to see more. Teddy tells him it isn't a story. Santino says yes it is, and Teddy says that it was backstage. Santino keeps saying no, and they get into a yes and no argument over it. Teddy tells him that just happened, and Santino says that is unfreakingbelieveable, and demands he gets a leprechaun of his own. Teddy says he can't give him one. Santino calls him names in Italian and storms out of the office. After Santino exits, Cryme Tyme enters. They ask Teddy about the phone booth out there. Teddy says it is set up for here in England. They ask him how much for it. The GM asks why in the world would they want a telephone booth. JTG begins to beg to him to give them a price so they can have it, and Shad joins in to. Teddy says it isn't his, and tells them to run along. They step out in anger, Teddy rubbing his forehead as if he has a headache. The main event is next.
Commercial Break
Shawn Michaels and Triple H vs Ted DiBiase and WWE Champion Randy Orton
As all men come down to the ring, DiBiase starts things off with Michaels. DiBiase takes control to start off, and corners HBK quickly. However, he is slugged with tons of fast strikes over and over. He taunts to the crowd his control, and then taunts at Triple H. He goes on with hitting some suplexes and a few variations of slams on DiBiase. However, he loses control when he focuses towards Hunter and is hit with a bunch of strikes from DiBiase now. He hits a hard slam quickly, and begins to take control by hitting some more shots. Quickly, HBK makes the force tag to Hunter, and he gets in. Him and DiBiase back off from each other, and DiBiase tags in Orton - who glares at him. He gets in as him and Hunter trade strikes at each other. After a few minutes of control from Orton, Hunter hits a huge knee drop and spinebuster, but Orton manages to flip him over from the Pedigree, leaving both men down in the middle of the ring.
Commercial Break
As we return, DiBiase and Michaels are in the ring again - with HBK in control in the corner delivering some rough direct shots to the forehead. He takes control for the next minute hitting some nice moves, but DiBiase ducks a Sweet Chin Music attempt and hits Dream Street - but HBK manages to kick out. DiBiase applies some different forms of mat holds, and HBK gets up digging his elbow into the gut. He delivers a hard flying forearm, and pops to his feet. However - after a couple minutes of back and forth action from each other they both go to tag in their partners but neither want it. With that, Orton gets into the ring and backs Ted up yelling at him. Hunter does the same with Shawn, and the referee tells them to get out. However, they don't comply and he calls for the bell.
Winners of the match: No Contest (13:48) ***1/2
After the bell, all four men are arguing still. HBK spits in HHH's face, and steps out of the ring. Hunter doesn't take it and gets out of the ring and grabs a sledgehammer from under the ring. He follows up the ramp, but as he catches up to Shawn and swings the sledge, HBK ducks under it and it hits the phone booth and shatters the glass. As he turns, Michaels hits him with a hard superkick and leans over him in taunt. Back in the ring, Orton pushes DiBiase to the mat. He tells him to back out now, and DiBiase gets back up and pushes the WWE Champion back. They begin to scuffle into a back and forth brawl like they did earlier, and Orton manages to throw DiBiase shoulder first into the steel post. He starts to pound down on his back, and prepares for the RKO. As DiBiase turns, he stops himself and doesn't go for it. Instead, he clotheslines DiBiase down to the mat. He stalks over him, and stomps down slowly around the body. He then steps out of the ring and takes the WWE Title before laying it in the middle of the ring. He prepares for DiBiase to rise, and as he does the RKO is hit right onto the belt. He slowly slithers onto his fists again and looks around at DiBiase, before slipping the WWE Championship out from under him and rising with it over his head to end Raw. |

Hmm, not one of your best opening promos, but it works well and gets the point of the night across, as Cole said, can either team coexist? Swagger gunning for Kofi's gold is great, hopefully he takes it this time. Serena as Divas Champ is pretty cool. The aftermath furthers thier feud.
The triple threat tag team match sounds cool. The face off between Miz and Cena was great. Jerishow taking the win is the best move, E&C save afterwards, which is cool. Like the cowards taunt. How the mighty ghost falls :') Sheamus feuding with Hornswoggle is hilarious. Like the comedy segment. That was pretty well done. No Contest is the best way to go really. The two feuds coming to a head should be great.
Great show as always Emm Ell. Keep it up!!
