Great American Bash Review
Mark Henry beating Edge just goes to prove my point that Henry is just that damn dominant and in his return Henry proved that he is not one to be messed with, and even though Edge I will admit put up one hell of a fight but a lot of good that did but Henry doesn't care whether the people love him or hate him because he is back for one thing and one thing only which is destruction but I bet Henry wants that WWE Championship and by going through Edge he just proved why he is capable of becoming champion if he sets his sights on the title
It seems Kofi Kingston my countryman, my fellow Ghanaian, he is coming into his own as a heel but I just never expected him to align himself with such a bottom-feeding no talent no good scumbag like John Laurinaitis but I can't say that I am surprised because all Kofi has wanted is to become champion and now that he is, and Big Johnny is endorsing him like no tomorrow, it makes me wonder if they have a plan tonight especially with Kofi being forced to defend his World Heavyweight Championship against Ryback because if they have a plan, then let's just say Ryback's quest for regaining the World Heavyweight Championship just got a whole hell of a lot harder
Sandow and Danielson still the WWE Tag Team Champions beating Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio, it was a great match and why? Because the fact that it was just so evenly matched but so back and forth but ever since Sandow and Danielson have become the champions, almost every title defense they have gotten better and better and especially with a team like Cara and Rey, a high-flying team, a certain clash of styles here and that is what made it so interesting but then cue the Kings of Wrestling Cesaro and Ohno coming out after the match is over to attack the champions only for Cara and Mysterio to make the save and the show of respect between Sandow & Danielson & Sin Cara and Rey Mysterio after the match was even better, great class of sportsmanship but I see a Triple-Threat Tag Team Match happening at SummerSlam
RAW 1000 I can't wait and loved the video package for Kofi vs Ryback for the World Heavyweight Championship showcasing the history between these 2 men
Kofi retains his World Heavyweight Championship against Ryback all be it that he had help from the esteemed Commissioner yet again, just proves my point that Big Johnny is abusing his power, he needs to be removed from power by Vince the Chairman of the company or isn't Triple H the COO, he could still fire Big Johnny but nevertheless it just proves my point that Kofi can't beat Ryback one on one unless he has help from Big Johnny, Kofi is a coward plain and simple but it is only a matter of time before someone takes that title from him and what will happen? Johnny will turn on him because Johnny is that much of a leech, he did it to Kennedy and he wouldn't hesitate to do it to Kofi
Love Seth Rollins beating The Miz and why? Because it puts Rollins over huge considering Miz is a former WWE Champion former World Heavyweight Champion here in your diary but also that he is a former Money in the Bank Ladder Match winner, Miz has done it all except win the Rumble but Miz being a main eventer put Rollins over huge and Rollins is a star for the future here in WWE and beating Miz just proves just how and or why Rollins' push will begin soon enough
Kaitlyn retaining her WWE Divas Championship beating April Lee again just shows us that Kaitlyn has done well for herself ever since breaking up with Ziggler because I would have thought that she would fade into obscurity but so far she has not becoming WWE Divas Champion but staying the champion beating her former friend or so it seems, but I wonder what is next on the agenda for Kaitlyn as far as a new #1 Contender goes, but I wonder what is next for April Lee?
CM Punk/Rock contract signing was great so great that I would have loved to see this on actual television but Punk laying out Vince, is he crazy? Vince could fire Punk just for attacking him but knowing Vince he won't do it but for Rock here is hoping he kicks Punk's ass not just for Vince, not just for Austin but for himself and the millions and millions of Rock's fans
Sheamus telling Cena to watch his back where Orton is concerned, well Sheamus does have a point, Orton can't be trusted but then again Cena can't trust Sheamus either
Ziggler vs Jericho 2 Out of 3 Falls, this if anything was a pure wrestling classic, match of the night as far as I'm concerned such a classic, so back and forth with every fall with Ziggler winning the 1st fall and then Jericho winning the 2nd fall and then Ziggler winning the final fall, just goes to show us that Ziggler is destined for great things especially now that he has beaten a glorified first ballot future WWE Hall of Famer but also aligning himself with Flair who was influential in Ziggler winning his match just goes to show us that Ziggler's huge push will continue especially with Flair in his corner but definite Match of the Year candidate would be this
And the main event if anything just proves that Orton will turn heel and if he does, I am all for it really, a Sheamus/Orton feud at this point has just needed to happen and it will finally happen but for Cena he can't stop the Mercenaries of Darkness and if he can't, then who else can? No one

The Great American Bash
5 hours, right?
It's great to see Mark Henry make his way back into this diary, though I'm bit unsure on how you approached it. Returning on Pay-Per-View is fine, but in the opening contest? And against another returning superstar in Edge? Just found it to be a rather odd scenario. Not too thrilled with it. A great victory for Henry nonetheless and I hope to see him continue to dominate. Next, a nice successful WWE Tag Team championship defense for Damien Sandow and Bryan Danielson. The attack from the Kings of Wrestling afterwards was fine, and I sense a Three Way match at SummerSlam. Would be lovely. Heel Kofi Kingston is something that I can hardly imagine, especially as a corporate sell-out World Heavyweight Champion. I've never been big on Kofi and this doesn't change that for me. Him retaining the title was expected, though. I do hope Ryback takes it at SummerSlam, giving Kofi and John Laurinaitis their comeuppance. Seth Rollins defeating The Miz in his Pay-Per-View debut was nice. I look forward to more from Rollins, and don't particularily care for Miz' direction at this point. A good Divas Championship bout, and Kaitlyn retaining wasn't bad. I see April Lee is goin' cray cray now. Good. Very heated contract signing between CM Punk and The Rock. Punk is such a dick, I love it. Great attack on both Vince McMahon and Rock. An incredible Two of out Three Falls match that saw Dolph Ziggler defeat Chris Jericho. Puts over Ziggler huge in what should be the conclusion of this rivalry. Kind of surprised that you decided to go with this match tonight rather than at SummerSlam. Hoping to see Ziggler in a grand program next month. And lastly, a wild and great Six Man Tag match. The Mercenaries of Darkness with the victory was the right call as John Cena is likely to gain the revenge that he is seeking at SummerSlam. Randy Orton and Sheamus imploding was fascinating, and I do hope that this marks the beginning of heel Orton. A nice PPV overall. Looking forward to SummerSlam, ya bitch.

JULY 16 - AUGUST 18 REVIEW
CM Punk and The Rock: The night after The Great American Bash and the contract signing between Rock and Punk, the latter came down to the ring to brag about his actions by laying out not just 'Dwayne', but the WWE Chairman by saying he was just sending a message and invited The Rock to show up on Raw 1000. At the big event, The Rock did indeed show up and called out Punk, and the walking pipe bomb would attempt an attack from behind, only for The People's Champ to fight back and get the last laugh with a Rock Bottom. In the final episode of Raw before Summerslam, Punk cut a promo about The Rock and once again talked of how his brainwashing of the WWE Universe made him sick to his stomach, and all the fans were stupid for supporting a 'fake superstar'. The Rock would show up and talk back, saying that he may not be on WWE television every single week, but he truly does love the people and that at Summerslam he would layeth the smacketh down on Punk for himself and the millions (and millions) of The Rock's fans. The two would proceed to brawl, only for Punk to escape through the crowd.
The Undertaker and John Cena: On the night following The Great American Bash, John Cena disregarded the match the night before stating he wasn't going to worry about the issues between Sheamus and Randy Orton and he was fully focused upon The Mercenaries of Darkness. He would call out the group and made the challenge to The Undertaker for one more match at Summerslam, to which the Dead Man accepted with the stipulation being his choice - Hell in a Cell. Cena would accept, and over the weeks battle against the mind games of the Dead Man and the attacks by Ambrose and Rhodes. In the final week leading up to Summerslam, Cena would be lured to the ring by Ambrose and Rhodes only to be caught inside the Hell in a Cell structure, leading to a beat down and a crucifixion similar to what he had done at Extreme Rules, only for it to be done above the cell with Undertaker standing right beneath in his signature knelt down pose.
Kofi Kingston, Chris Jericho, Dolph Ziggler and Edge: After Ryback lost his rematch on the Smackdown following GAB, Kingston was left without a #1 contender. Chris Jericho, Dolph Ziggler and Edge would all claim they were worthy of the slot, to which Commissioner Laurinaitis told all three of them they would do battle in a triple threat match. Kingston would come down to the ring and lay out all three with a steel chair, leading to the trio joining together and beating down Kingston the following week. Laurinaitis would get them to stop by giving them all a title shot at Summerslam in a fatal four way.
Randy Orton and Sheamus: After their fallout leading up to The Great American Bash and during the main event match at the pay-per-view, Orton stated he was sick of being an afterthought and guys like John Cena and Sheamus were in his way of getting back to the top. Sheamus would come down to the ring and tell Orton to quit whining about it, and to do something about it. The two would break out into a fight and continue their battles with each other over the next few shows before a match between the two was made at Summerslam in the form of a street fight.
Ryback and Mark Henry: Ryback would get his rematch against Kofi Kingston on the July 19th edition of Smackdown, only to lose thanks to the distraction of Mark Henry. He would then come to the ring after the match and beat down Ryback. After an accusation of John Laurinaitis setting up Henry's assault, the World's Strongest Man would inform Ryback himself that he chose to take him out by himself and that he works for nobody but himself. He would tell him he was sick of seeing guys try and replace him on the roster by being the strongest, because nobody is the strongest but the World's Strongest Man. In the weeks following, the two would have some strength competitions with Henry constantly freaking out after being on the fringe of losing.
Tag Team Championships: After the trio of teams got into a mix up at The Great American Bash, a three team feud would ensue and after a couple of weeks of troubles with each other, a triple threat tag team match would be made for the Tag Team Championships at Summerslam. In the final week before the biggest party of the summer, tensions would rise between all three teams, specifically with the tag team champions after Damien Sandow accidentally cost Bryan Danielson his match against Antonio Cesaro and Rey Mysterio.
Diva's Championship: After a couple of weeks of wins for the champion, Kaitlyn, over other diva's on the roster a battle royal was made for the championship at Summerslam featuring Kaitlyn, April Lee, Natalya, Layla, Beth Phoenix, Kelly Kelly, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella.
Other: Seth Rollins would continue his feud with The Miz, and move on to John Morrison; The Bella Twins would rejoin the WWE Roster and set their sites on the Diva's Championship and Kaitlyn; Wade Barrett would suffer a dislocated shoulder during a match with The Miz and be sidelined for at least a month; On Raw 1000, Shawn Michaels and Triple H would show up in D-Generation X fashion with a tank. The duo would come along with X-Pac, Billy Gunn and Road Dogg all joining in to embarrass Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez.

Can't wait until SummerSlam because your card alone looks great on paper
And I love how RAW 1000 was mentioned in your build-up towards SummerSlam but I would rather see SummerSlam the pay per view itself as a whole
No doubt John Cena vs Undertaker for the WWE Championship inside Satan's structure inside Hell in a Cell will main event the pay per view closing out the show
Rock vs Punk First Time Ever will probably go on before Cena/Taker
Hope Sheamus/Orton ends up leading up to Orton's eventual heel turn because Orton has been needing a heel turn for a while now, so for him to do it on a big stage like SummerSlam is even better and here is hoping Orton ends up getting back to the top where he should be as WWE's top heel, Orton becoming the Viper of old punting superstars in the skull but also being more venomous and more dangerous than ever before but also gaining that heat too along the way it will be great
Ryback/Henry here is hoping you build up this feud better than what we saw in real life
I wonder where this will lead for Ambrose and Rhodes since they aren't on the SummerSlam card at all, they will probably be on the SummerSlam kick-off, the pre-show if anything
But I definitely cannot wait until your Payback pay per view in September since it is your next pay per view right after SummerSlam

PRO WRESTLING > WWE > WWE BRINGING BACK MONEY IN THE BANK...08/18/12
WWE BRINGING BACK MONEY IN THE BANK BY A.J. MATHEWS According to WWE.com, the Money in the Bank pay-per-view will be making a return in September. As it was reported about a month ago, 'Payback' was to be a new pay-per-view debuting in September, but it has been pushed back into October to replace 'Bragging Rights'. Unlike the last Money in the Bank pay-per-view in 2011, however, there will be two ladder matches with two briefcases. In one match, the briefcase will contain a contract for a shot at the WWE Championship. In the other match, the briefcase will hold a contract for a World Heavyweight Championship title shot.

So it seems Money in the Bank is going to be your September pay per view with Payback being your October pay per view, I guess that makes sense and for Money in the Bank personally I feel it is way better to have one Money in the Bank match making it inter-promotional with one briefcase on the line and the winner gets to cash in on either champion of their choice but at the same time with 2 MITB Ladder Matches I admit it is exciting but with 1 MITB Ladder Match with it being inter-promotional it adds to the unpredictability of it

SummerSlam Predictions
The Rock vs CM Punk, this is going to be Rock's first match in over 8 years because the last time he had a match was WrestleMania 20 when he teamed with Mick Foley as the Rock n Sock Connection and they faced off against Evolution (Orton, Batista and Flair) in a 2 on 3 Handicap Match and Rock lost that match and now fast forward 8 years later The Rock is back in a WWE ring and facing off against The Best in the World CM Punk, who should go over in this match? The Rock should win and why? Because this is Rock's first match in over 8 years and I don't think Rock would come back to WWE especially to lose in his first match in over 8 years but with Punk a loss against Rock wouldn't really hurt Punk
The Undertaker vs John Cena WWE Championship, Hell in a Cell, the final encounter between these 2 men, this match The Undertaker made famous, Undertaker has been in countless Hell in a Cell matches and Undertaker has a great win-loss record when it comes to Hell in a Cell matches whereas with Cena Hell in a Cell has not been kind to Cena at all, Cena has a bad record inside Satan's structure and Undertaker has seemingly gotten better and better each title defense so something has got to give here. I say Taker retains the WWE Championship against Cena winning inside Hell in a Cell without any help from his Mercenaries of Darkness and Taker getting the job done on his own.
Kofi Kingston vs Edge vs Dolph Ziggler vs Chris Jericho World Heavyweight Championship Fatal 4-Way, Kofi is at a huge disadvantage having to defend his title not only against 1 man, not 2 men but 3 men and Kofi doesn't even have to be pinned to lose his title so the chances of him retaining his title are like 25%. Not to mention it is every man for himself but as for who I think will end up becoming World Heavyweight Champion I see Kofi Kingston retaining and why? Kofi being the cowardly heel he is now he will probably end up taking advantage of an opportunity picking his spot and throwing whoever out of the ring pinning whoever is down to retain his title that way stealing the victory and I think all roads will end up leading to a Kofi/Kennedy match at Money in the Bank for the World Heavyweight Championship.
Randy Orton vs Sheamus Street Fight, this has to go to The Viper Randy Orton and why? Orton is on the cusp of a full-blown heel turn and what better way for Orton to make his full-blown heel turn than to do it at SummerSlam especially on such a grand stage like SummerSlam and in such a match like a Street Fight with The Great White Sheamus and what would solidify Orton's heel turn is if he punts Sheamus in the skull so hard that Orton ends up putting Sheamus on the shelf and we don't see Sheamus for at least a few months because then that would re-establish Orton as the dangerous Viper of old who can destroy anyone with just one swift punt to the skull
Ryback vs Mark Henry, I see Ryback winning this only for Mark Henry to attack Ryback right after the match injuring Ryback putting Ryback in the Hall of Pain by putting a chair on Ryback's leg, ankle or neck and jumping on the chair crushing Ryback's leg, ankle or neck putting Ryback on the shelf which would just put Henry over as a beast since Henry just returned not even all that long ago but also Ryback could use a break for a while
Danielson & Sandow vs Cara & Mysterio vs Cesaro & Ohno, as for who wins this match, I say Cesaro and Ohno will finally end Sandow and Danielson's title reign with the Kings of Wrestling becoming the new WWE Tag Team Champions with either Sandow turning heel in the process turning heel on Danielson or Danielson ends up turning heel on Sandow, either way I see their tag team ending one way or another
Battle Royal for the WWE Divas Championship, I see Kaitlyn retaining her WWE Divas Championship especially in a Battle Royal setting but as for who she eliminates last in order to retain her title I see it being Kaitlyn and April Lee being the final 2 women in the ring with Kaitlyn eliminating April to retain
Either way I just can't wait for SummerSlam!!!!!!!!!!
BUT HERE IS HOPING YOU FINALLY HAVE BROCK LESNAR RETURN!!!!!!

| LIVE FROM THE STAPLES CENTER IN LOS ANGELES, CA |
PRE-SHOW: Seth Rollins defeats John Morrison and The Miz via pinfall.
A promo video begins with the faces of The Rock, CM Punk, John Cena and The Undertaker. A voice over talks about how summer time is meant for fun with friends and family, enjoying time together and to party. The first theme, "Run" by Flo Rida, hits and goes along with the feuds over the World Heavyweight Championship, Tag Team Championships, Randy Orton and Sheamus, Ryback and Mark Henry. The voice over comes in once again and says that some times, the party has to stop on nights like these for serious business. "On Fire" by P.O.D. comes in and leads the hype for John Cena and The Undertaker, showing all of the darkness the Dead Man has brought over the WWE since introducing his Mercenaries of Darkness, only to have Cena rise up against them all and vow he would make Undertaker rest in peace at Summerslam. It transitions to The Rock and CM Punk, with the history between the two beginning way back in WrestleMania season, with The Rock returning to make the challenge for Summerslam. Punk would strike and agree to the match, and the heated contract signing at The Great American Bash would bring things to a new level. The video keeps up with the weeks of hype, the two exchanging words back and forth and promising victory in Los Angeles.
The cameras pan live into the Staples Center, the pyros hitting across the stage wild and loud! Michael Cole, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler welcome everybody to the show where tonight the biggest party of the summer brings the heat with tons of action, including the return to the ring of The Rock against CM Punk! Also, the Hell in a Cell match returns with the man who owns the match itself, WWE Champion The Undertaker goes one on one with John Cena! The commentary crew speaks of how much potential this show has, and regardless of how it stacks up to all the others in history, it is guaranteed to be a great one no matter what!Street Fight Randy Orton vs SheamusThe bell tolls and the two stare each other down before circling around the ring, coming to the middle and trading shots to the head back and forth. Orton pushes Sheamus up into the corner and hits him with a series of punches to the head and stomach before whipping him off to the other side, charging at full force with a clothesline only to miss. Sheamus hits off of the opposing roses and comes back with a vicious clothesline of his own. He takes Orton back onto his feet and lifts him up by the tights, slamming him face first on the turnbuckle. Orton flops against the ropes and Sheamus clotheslines him right over, following him to the outside. The Celtic Warrior drags the Viper back up and tosses him face first into the steel post and then the announce table. He leans up against it and hits a couple of punches before whipping Orton back first into the ring. He pounds on his chest and spreads his arms out to the crowd, giving out a yell. Sheamus walks back over and goes to drag Orton up only to get hit with a low blow! Randy staggers back onto his feet and catches his breath as Sheamus drops down onto the floor. Orton drags him back up by the hair and whips him right into the steel steps, following right up over to him and pounding down with more fists to the skull. The Viper moves around and looks under the ring, pulling out a kendo stick. He looks to Sheamus once again and canes him right across the back! He hits him a few more times before tossing it away, clotheslining Sheamus over the barricade! Orton backs off a bit and looks out to the booing crowd, not showing any emotion. Sheamus stirs up behind the barricade and Orton moves over to him quickly, dragging him up off the floor and keeping his feet dangling on the barricade - Orton dropping straight down to the floor with a DDT! The crowd gives a loud 'ooh' at the painful move, Orton slithering right back onto his hands and knees, breathing heavily over Sheamus' lifeless body. He forces his adversary onto his feet and pushes him back into the ring, rolling in right after and hooking both legs only to get a count of two! Orton stirs back up and walks around slowly, running his hands over his head a couple of times before coming across his face. He charges up to Sheamus as he rises up but gets met with a boot to the stomach. Sheamus pummels Orton across the back repeatedly with shots across the back and tosses him shoulder first into the steel post. Sheamus hops out of the ring and drags Orton down to the floor, forcing him back up and dragging him into a bear hug. Orton stretches his hands out in pain and Sheamus charges full force into the steel post, smacking the back of the Viper right into it! The crowd gives an 'ooh' at the impact as Orton cringes in pain on the floor. Sheamus drags him back up once again and lifts him up for the Celtic Cross, charging at the announce table only for Orton to slip free at the last second and push off to the ring. Sheamus stops himself at the table and spins around to Orton with a chair and he is blasted straight in the face! The Viper tosses the chair off to the side and drags Sheamus back onto his feet, pushing him into the ring. He follows after him and pounds his fists into the mat. Sheamus slowly rises back up and Orton goes for the RKO, only to get shoved away and blasted with the Brogue Kick on the return! The Celtic Warrior gets back up again and pounds his chest, raising his fist up to the crowd. He backs off to the corner and prepares for the Brogue once again, pounding his chest and chanting along with the crowd. He charges full force at Orton on the return but it is ducked under, The Viper shoving Sheamus right around and dropping him to the mat with the RKO! He hooks both legs up only to get a count of two! Orton hops right back up onto his feet and flails his arms around, hanging across the ropes and holding his head down in absolute disbelief. He looks over his shoulder to Sheamus again and steps right up to him, dragging him back up only to be lifted off the mat and slammed right into the corner! Sheamus hits a series of shoulders into the ribs and forces Orton all the way across the ring, smacking his spine right off the opposing corner. Orton drops to the mat and Sheamus gets out of the ring, pulling out a table from underneath the ring. He slides it in and follows, setting the table up right in the middle of the ring. He moves over to Orton once again and clubs him a few times across the back for good measure and forces him back up. The Celtic Warrior proceeds to set up for the Celtic Cross, but Orton manages to twist an arm free and spin out of the hold, jumping high up in the air and landing an RKO right through the table! The crowd goes into an uproar as both men lay out on the mat, Orton slowly struggling to the body of Sheamus and rolling it over, hooking the nearby leg up slowly for the three count.Winner of the match via pinfall, Randy Orton (13:35) ***3/4Orton staggers back onto his feet, the crowd booing loudly as he flops against the ropes. The official raises his arm up and he leans his head back, walking around the lifeless body of Sheamus. He backs off to the ropes once again and gives a bit of a laugh, stroking his hand over his head. He drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring as the replay airs repeatedly of Orton hitting the RKO through the table in shocking fashion. Back live, Orton backs up to the top of the ramp and looks down to the ring, spreading his arms out in taunt only to pull down quickly to hold onto his ribs. He heads off to the back as Sheamus slowly stirs in the middle of the ring, being helped back to his feet by the referee. The cameras head backstage to Damien Sandow and Bryan Danielson in their locker room. Sandow is trying to get Bryan to focus but he isn't listening, mumbling 'no' repeatedly. Sandow finally puts his hands on his shoulders and tells him to be quiet, Bryan staring right at him. "How am I supposed to trust you, Damien!?" Danielson shakes his head, "Last week you cost me the match with Rey and Antonio! Then you didn't even apologize for it!" He begins to walk away but Sandow grabs him by the arm, pulling him back. He points his finger in Bryan's face, "You need to focus on keeping our tag team championships, alright!?" He walks out of the room and Danielson shakes his head, breathing heavily and following him out. Singles MatchRyback vs Mark HenryThe bell rings and the two come to the middle of the ring, staring down. Ryback breaths heavily and Henry begins to smack talk, sending a shot to the head. Ryback staggers a bit and Henry continues to throw shots, Ryback staggering back before hitting off the ropes and coming back with a hard clothesline, Henry stumbling a bit. Ryback grabs him by the strap and throws a couple of punches to the head and knocks Henry back into the corner. He moves backwards and charges at full force with a clothesline, only for Henry to move out of the way. He lets Ryback back up and hits him with a shot right across the back. He throws a couple more and drags Ryback towards the middle of the ring, arm first. He nails a couple of forearms to the jaw and shoves him against the ropes, splashing into the chest. Ryback drops down onto the mat and Henry pounds on his chest, swinging his head back and hollering. He laughs a bit and moves towards Ryback again, only to be taken by the legs and shoved back a bit. Ryback tries to lift up the World's Strongest Man but fails, Henry managing to stay down and hit a series of shots across the neck. He takes Ryback up to the corner again and clubs him across the chest, Ryback pushing him back a bit and charging right at him, lifting him up off the mat by the legs and dropping him down onto the mat! The crowd gives a bit of a cheer as Ryback pumps his arms up and down, getting fired up. He lets Henry stir back up and charges at him again, attempting to lift him again but failing. He backs off and ducks a clothesline, lifting Henry up once again and dropping him back first into the corner. He charges off the ropes and comes back for a spear, Henry stumbling against the ropes and to the outside floor! Ryback shoots back up onto his feet and begins to pump his arms up once again, getting the crowd fired up once more. He steps out of the ring and slams Henry's face onto the apron, only for the World's Strongest Man to hit him with another shot and slam Ryback face first into the steel steps. Henry rolls back into the ring and struggles back up onto his feet, the referee getting to the count of nine before Ryback gets back in and onto his feet. Both men come to the middle of the ring and lock up, Henry ducking away from a shot and catching a hold of Ryback's singlet, slamming his arm across the neck. Ryback stumbles forward and turns back around, catching the arm and nailing a hard knee to the stomach. He prepares to go for Shell Shocked, but fails to bring Henry onto his feet. He bounces off the ropes and comes back for a clothesline once again only to have Henry to move out of the way and get out of the ring. Ryback tilts his head out of anger and follows Henry out of the ring, only to be blasted in the side by a steel chair! The referee calls for the bell.Winner of the match via disqualification, Ryback (7:42) **1/2
The crowd begins to boo loudly as Henry raises the chair up over his hand, pumping his free hand up in the air in a fist. He clutches the chair to his side and walks back up to Ryback, smacking him right across the arm once again. He raises it up again and slams it across the back! Henry backs off as the referee comes by but shows how much he cares, shoving the official down! He takes Ryback by the neck and forces him back up, hitting the World's Strongest Slam right onto the floor! Henry gets onto both knees and looks around to the crowd, stirring back up and pounding on his chest. "That's what I do!" He heads around the ring and begins to go up the ramp, replays of the post-match attack airing repeatedly, Henry laughing up at the titantron in the meantime. A promo video proceeds to air, highlighting the history of the Money in the Bank Ladder Match. Next month, the Money in the Bank pay-per-view returns, with a briefcase for both the WWE and World Heavyweight Championship on the line in two different matches - the winner getting a title shot at any point in time within the next year! Returning live at ringside, Michael Cole reminds everybody about the tension between the tag team champions earlier on, and segways into the replay from last week where Sandow attempted to help Danielson win a triple threat match between Cesaro and Mysterio, only to accidentally take out his partner and end up leading him to a pinfall loss from Cesaro. We return live to the Staples Center. Triple Threat Tag Team Match for the WWE Tag Team ChampionshipsRey Mysterio and Sin Cara vs Kings of Wrestling vs Damien Sandow and Bryan Danielson(c)The bell sounds as Mysterio starts things off with Ohno. They come to the middle of the ring and circle around a bit, Rey tossing a kick into the back of the knee. He throws a couple of shots to the head as Ohno kneels his head down, Mysterio getting the upper hand and ducking a huge big boot, making a roll and tag to his partner. Cara springboards off the ropes with a hurricanrana, popping right back up and hitting Ohno with some chops to the chest. Kassius catches an arm, however, and flips Cara right down onto his back. He hits a couple of stomps to the chest and swings Cara back up onto his feet, whipping him off to the ropes - Sandow making a blind tag - with Ohno hitting a huge elbow to the neck. He spins around to a hard clothesline from Sandow, however, and Damien drags Ohno up by the hair.

"I'll speak for my guy, Matthew. I'll speak for him every time and it's plain and simple - he wouldn't be the World Heavyweight Champion if he wasn't worthy. I represent him because he is worthy of it, not because I made him worthy of it." He puts his hand on Kingston's shoulder, "And I guarantee you my number one guy, Mr. Kofi Kingston, will beat all three former World Champions tonight and prove himself to each and every one of you doubters! Is that clear, Matthew?" He pats Kingston on the back and the duo walk off, Kingston giving a last second stare at the interviewer.

"Look, Sheamus," Cena throws his arms out, "I know after The Great American Bash you and Randy had your problems, but I really do appreciate what you did for me against the Mercenaries of Darkness." Sheamus nods his head and gives a smile and pats Cena on the shoulder. "I wish I could of done more for ya, fella. Listen, if you need my help ton--" Cena puts his hands up and stops him from talking, shaking his head. He pats himself on the chest, "I'm doing this on my own tonight, brother.

We cut to the graphic for John Cena vs The Undertaker and the commentary crew speaks of how this has been truly going on since WrestleMania 26, but has reached an all time high in the past few months. We cut to a video package, starting off with Cena coming up short at both WrestleMania 26 and 28, extending the Dead Man's streak to 18-0 and 20-0 respectively. This year, however, in Dallas Cena had the WWE Championship on the line and lost it. The following month at Extreme Rules the two would meet in a match, only for Dean Ambrose and Cody Rhodes to strike. They would attack Cena and end up crucifying upon Taker's cross. They would later be revealed as the Mercenaries of Darkness. The group would continue to be a threat over the following months with Cena's absence, and be victorious upon his in ring return at The Great American Bash. Leading up to Summerslam, however, Cena would be given one last shot inside a Hell in a Cell match with The Undertaker. The video highlights the build up over the past month, concluding with Cena and Taker sharing the same expression of telling the other that at Summerslam they would 'rest in peace'.

Footage of all of the fans meeting and greeting with some of their favorite superstars are shown, and concludes with The Rock giving a loud "If ya smell! What The Rock is cooking!" at a press conference podium. We come back live to the arena, where Justin Roberts announces at this time to perform Summerslam theme song 'On Fire' - California's own, P.O.D.!

SummerSlam Review
Orton beats Sheamus to solidify his heel turn and I for one am happy Orton is back to being The Viper of old, back to his old evil, sinister ways but what would have been even better is if Orton used the punt kick and punted Sheamus' brains out punting Sheamus in the skull because if he did that then Orton would have gotten even more heel heat but at the same time during the match he was getting enough heat anyway so it is pretty much a win-win for me considering I am an Orton mark but also I love Orton more as a heel than I would if he were babyface, so here is hoping Orton sets his sights back on the World Heavyweight Championship whereas for Sheamus I wonder if he is done with The Viper
Sandow and Danielson backstage before their match, I would definitely say there is tension building between the 2 of them, will it cause one to turn on the other costing themselves the WWE Tag Team Championship
Ryback going over Henry all be it by DQ was a great result because a DQ win puts over Ryback but in the process it doesn't really hurt Mark Henry's momentum considering Henry just returned not all that long ago and a PPV loss a clean one would have hurt Henry so to see him lose by DQ, I am all right with that because it doesn't hurt Henry but at the same time it doesn't hurt Ryback either considering the bad luck he has had as of late but at the same time the post-match attack with Henry attacking Ryback brutalizing him, now that puts over Henry huge
MITB promo for the next PPV MITB, I can't wait
Kings of Wrestling Cesaro and Ohno becoming the new WWE Tag Team Champions beating Bryan Danielson & Damien Sandow and Sin Cara & Rey Mysterio in a great match-up, just a really good one but Sandow's heel turn I definitely was expecting and it finally happened and I can say that I am a happy camper because to tell you the truth in all honesty Sandow was carrying their tag team, Danielson was the weak link in the team and Sandow got rid of the dead weight but now Sandow can become the Duke of Decency, the Lord of Literacy the Savior of the Unwashed Masses because Danielson is beneath him and Sandow shouldn't have to resort to lowering himself to Danielson's level but with Cesaro and Ohno I wonder who they will face in their first title defense
Big Johnny seems awfully confident in his guy the World Heavyweight Champion Kofi Kingston, something tells me that Big Johnny has an ace up his sleeve knowing him and knowing Kofi he probably knows about what Johnny has planned and has decided to go along with it in order to escape with his title but one of these days Kofi's luck will run out
Kofi Kingston manages to find a way to win retaining his World Heavyweight Championship beating 2 bonafide future first-ballot Hall of Famers in Edge and Chris Jericho but also beating the hottest superstar in WWE right now in your diary Dolph Ziggler beating these 3 men to retain his World Heavyweight Championship, I have to give credit where it's due, Kofi actually showed me why he deserves to be the World Heavyweight Champion using not only his cunning but his intelligence taking advantage of an opportunity picking his spot to make sure he would walk out champion, I applaud him for that but I wonder who Kofi is going to defend his title against at Money in the Bank?
Sheamus and Cena backstage, I love it, but at the same time it wasn't all that long ago where these 2 men hated each other and not only that but they were bitter enemies and now they are all of a sudden buddies but I wouldn't be surprised if they do end up becoming enemies again at some point
Kaitlyn retaining her WWE Divas Championship again this time in a Battle Royal with the rest of the Divas on the roster, this just proves to me that Kaitlyn is not a fluke as a champion and that so far she has shown me that she has been nothing short of being a fighting champion because she has proven to be exactly that taking on all comers, but I wonder what and or who will be her next challenge looking ahead
John Cena beating The Undertaker inside Satan's structure inside Hell in a Cell to become the new WWE Champion, I was really hoping for The Undertaker to retain the WWE Championship because in all honesty this match was Taker's to win if you ask me because Cena even though he has been in HIAC matches before his record in them has been pretty awful but then again Taker's record has been nothing short of stellar especially inside Hell in a Cell, I thought that Taker couldn't lose seeing as how this was his environment but it all backfires in the end with Cena becoming the new WWE Champion but all I will say is that Cena better enjoy it while it lasts because like that it could all be taken away from him
And in the SummerSlam main event to close out the show, The Rock beats CM Punk, First Time Ever, this has got to be hands down the Match of the Night hands down one of the Matches of the Year, I would be surprised if this match is not nominated for Match of the Year for the Slammy Awards this was so great, so back and forth but at the same time Punk has been on a downward spiral since WrestleMania 28 hell his downward spiral even begun before WrestleMania 28, it dates back all the way to Royal Rumble 2012, Punk has been losing match after match, and now that Punk has been on a huge pay per view losing streak I wonder if CM Punk will take time away from WWE taking a break a sabbatical if you will because Punk could surely use one and when he comes back he can come back better than ever before

PRO WRESTLING > WWE > REPORT: ROB VAN DAM RETURNING 08/20/12
REPORT: ROB VAN DAM RETURNING BY A.J. MATHEWS According to sources, Rob Van Dam will be making his return to the WWE. After making a return to the company a couple of years ago, RVD was taken off television following a brutal "I Quit" Match with CM Punk at Extreme Rules in 2011 to take time off. It is now being reported that 'The Whole F'N Show' is prepared to come back as he has re-signed with the company. However, as we have been reporting here on Bleacher Report that the WWE was talking to a former superstar during the past couple of months. That superstar, though, that WWE has apparently been in talks with was reportedly not Rob Van Dam. This leads to further speculation as to who they could of been talking to, but regardless, RVD is back.

WWE SummerSlam: Sunday 19th August 2012...I'll be honest, I hate this format of just doing pay-per-views, but I guess I see why you do it. Seth Rollins with a win against John Morrison and The Miz on the pre-show is fine, but I don't like that Miz and Morrison are still in matches together after their original rivalry ended some two years ago. Solid opening contest, I thought that a feud between Randy Orton and Sheamus would have surfaced last year, in real life. A solid opening contest with Randy Orton picking the win. That was the right decision, and a good opening contest for SummerSlam. Ryback with a win against Mark Henry was alright, nothing too special to follow up with, other than provide Ryback with something new to do with Henry, resuming their feud into what should be next month's pay-per-view. The disqualification finish was fine for that. Up next, a decent three-way tag team match for the WWE Tag Team Championships - a great combination of teams in this one, although I think that Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara should have picked up the win. Kassius Ohno and Antonio Cesaro leaving with the titles isn't too much of a problem to me, though. I hate that the Kings of Wrestling name is being used in the WWE though. A more original team name would have been cool. A solid fatal four-way bout to follow for the World Heavyweight Championship - but two multi-man matches in a row is a little messy. I'd have spaced them out or excluded some participants from the match, honestly. Kofi Kingston as champ is fine, but I can't really get behind Kingston's performance as champion. Also, I believe John Laurinaitis as Kofi's manager makes for an odd combination. It just strikes me as odd. Hmm, Kingston is playing the chickensh*t champion? Not bad, but this wasn't a credible look for Kofi at all - more of a transitional champion role. I can only assume that he won't be champ for much longer. Up next, another multi-person match. Again, I'd have spaced out the card a little more thoroughly. Kaitlyn retaining the WWE Divas Championship is fine, this served as a calm down from the World title match, not bad. Following this, John Cena and the Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell match? VERY big match, and it's not main eventing? I'm not a fan of that decision, personally. John Cena winning the WWE Championship was good, and now perhaps 'Taker can disappear for a while. A solid affair though, the write-ups for these matches are faultless. And finally, The Rock has come back to face CM Punk. A decent main event, but without a buffer between this and the Hell in a Cell match, the crowd must have been getting tired. Rock picking up the win was fine, not a big deal to me. Overall, a decent show in terms of matches and angles - but I can't help that the ordering of the matches was messed up. I just think that a Hell in a Cell match - with Cena and 'Taker no less - should have gone on last. Additionally, three multi-person matches in a row proved to be a tad messy. Nonetheless, good work, and I'll try to keep up with these pay-per-views. I look forward to Money in the Bank next month.

Who died and made this sh*t Spotlight?
Quite a packed SummerSlam event in store, so let's get to it. Seth Rollins defeating John Morrison and the Miz on the Pre Show is fine, but a bit of an odd match I think. I understand that it's only the Pre-Show, but I think the same line of build for it that you give the rest of the card would be nice. Onto what we're really here for, a great Street Fight to kick things off between Randy Orton and Sheamus. Orton going over was definitely the right call, seeing as how he's reverted back to his heel character. Ryback vs. Mark Henry was definitely not pretty to say the least. The disqualification finish was fine to keep both men strong, but I do think that Ryback has lost quite a bit of momentum throughout the Summer, being pushed out of the World Heavyweight Championship picture after technically winning it. Whatevs, Ryback drools anyways. Triple Threat match for the WWE Tag Team Championships! I'm so smart, aren't I. Aren't I?!?! I'm very glad to see Kassius Ohno and Antonio Cesaro become the new champions. I have no real interest in seeing Rey Mysterio and Sin Cara as the champions, and Damien Sandow and Bryan Danielson had a rather nice run with the gold. A Fatal Four Way match following the Triple Threat Tag is a bit of an overkill, I think. Quite the talent pool in this match, however. Kofi Kingston retaining the title was expected as I couldn't have imagined anyone else in this match as the World Champion. I'm still not entirely sold on heel corporate champion Kofi, though. Nothing on your part, just that I can't picture him in that role at all. A Divas Battle Royal for the Divas Championship is fine. April Lee losing her sh*t at the beginning was a nice touch. Glad that Kaitlyn retained the title. Aside from her and April, there really aren't many Divas on your roster who I would like to see as the top Diva. Next, a massive Hell in a Cell match between the Undertaker and John Cena. I do kind of agree with Dan in that this match probably should have gone on last, but I can understand why it didn't. Cena regaining the WWE Championship is cool, the Mercenaries of Darkness had enough fun at the top over the course of the Summer. And finally, CM Punk and the Rock have their anticipated match up. Rock winning was fine, personally would have liked for Punk to have gone over, though. But that's just the Punk mark in my speaking. Overall, a very good SummerSlam event. Was quite stacked, and I think a buffer in between the two main events would have worked out better. But still an awesome show nonetheless.

WWE SummerSlam I still wish we could get episodes of RAW and SmackDown, seeing how all the stories play out is my favorite part of simming. Onto the show, kicking off with the Street Fight is a good idea. Randy Orton picking up the win is fine, the RKO through a table for the finish was cool. Tension between Bryan and Sandow... interesting. Hmm, would have preferred to see Ryback pick up a clean victory over Henry to gain some momentum, but this is a good way to keep the feud going. Awesome to see that the Kings of Wrestling captured the tag team championships, and now that Bryan and Sandow are both going off on their own. The Fatal Four Way match is a pretty neat idea with all of those four in the mix, Kingston retaining his title is probably for the best right now. I assume we'll be seeing a defense against Edge next month, that would be a cool feud, it's something different. The heels have been dominating this pay-per-view so far. Kaitlyn retaining the Diva's Championship in the battle royal is fine, this match could have been used later in the show between the two main events, however. Love the idea of Cena and Undertaker being put in Hell in a Cell together. Personally, I would have had this main eventing. I don't even see Rock and Punk, of all people, being able to top a match of this caliber. Cena winning the WWE Championship is the right call, I don't see the Mercenaries lasting for too much longer. Finally, Rock going over Punk is a bit meh for me. Punk has lost to both Austin and Rock this year, what is that supposed to say about the current product? Punk should have came out the victor of at least one of those matches. Anyway, the match itself was fantastic, which is the important part. Overall, the pay-per-view was stacked with great matches, but the ordering could have used some work.

AUGUST 20 - SEPTEMBER 15 REVIEW
WWE Championship Money in the Bank: Commissioner John Laurinaitis made the announcement on the August 20th edition of Monday Night Raw that there would be two Money in the Bank Ladder Matches and he would hand select the eight men featured in both. He would proceed to announce the WWE Championship Money in the Bank competitors - Randy Orton, Chris Jericho, Edge, Christian, CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, Dolph Ziggler and the returning Rob Van Dam. The seven competitors outside of Rob Van Dam would do battle in separate one on one matches ultimately culminating on the September 10th episode of Raw, with a six man tag taking place without Orton, whom claimed he was injured. He would come to the ring in the middle of the match and clean house with a ladder before retrieving the briefcase hanging above the ring symbolically.
World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank: On the August 23rd episode of Smackdown, John Laurinaitis announced that Alberto Del Rio, The Miz, Seth Rollins, Sin Cara, Wade Barrett, Damien Sandow, John Morrison and Bryan Danielson. That night, all eight men would bicker back and forth in the ring and lead to their battles over the weeks leading up to Money in the Bank, with the September 13th edition of Smackdown concluding with all eight men breaking out into a fight during MizTV, and all attempting to get the Money in the Bank case hanging above the ring, with former winners Barrett and Miz making it to the top with Miz managing to get the case on his own show.
John Cena, Dean Ambrose and Cody Rhodes: The night after Summerslam, John Cena celebrated his victory over The Undertaker only to have Dean Ambrose and Cody Rhodes strike, Cena responding the following week by challenging the two to a handicap match, in which he would end up winning by disqualification. Ambrose and Rhodes would give a promo September 3rd, and tell Cena that they were going to take the WWE Championship away from him and bring it back to their leader, causing Cena to demand a triple threat match at Money in the Bank.
Kofi Kingston and Sheamus: Sheamus would be left out of the WWE Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match after defeating Kofi Kingston by count out on the Raw following Summerslam, leading to the Celtic Warrior questioning John Laurinaitis' motives on Smackdown. He would confront the commissioner, only to be attacked by Kingston. The week afterward, Sheamus would lock Kingston in his locker room and once again confront Laurinaitis, this time being able to get his hands on him and demand his match at Money in the Bank. After being rewarded the shot, he would lay out Laurinaitis with the Brogue Kick regardless. On the last Smackdown before the pay-per-view, Sheamus would be laid out by Kingston - giving the champion momentum.
Ryback and Mark Henry: Following his disqualification victory at Summerslam, Ryback would claim Henry wasn't big or bad enough to beat him. Henry would attack from behind and end up putting Ryback through the announce table, however, as a response. In the following weeks, Ryback would continue to make challenges to Henry and would begin a successful streak over the World's Strongest Man, leading to a No Holds Barred match being made between the two at Money in the Bank.
Kaitlyn and Beth Phoenix: Being the last diva eliminated in the Summerslam diva's battle royal, Beth Phoenix would claim herself as the new number one contender. Kaitlyn would try and argue nicely that she hadn't exactly proved it, but Beth would respond by attacking her. She would end up winning a match against Kaitlyn's friend, Natalya, on the September 6th episode of Smackdown, and after a post-match attack, Kaitlyn would agree to put her title on the line against Beth at the upcoming pay-per-view.
Other: A promo video began airing on September 10th for the upcoming debut of Big E Langston, showing off his strength and mean streak. Also, it was announced during the month via satellite by The Rock himself that he would be entering the Royal Rumble match in January, with the Brahma Bull vowing he would win and challenge for the WWE Championship.

| LIVE FROM THE TD GARDEN IN BOSTON, MA |
PRE-SHOW: The Usos defeat The Kings of Wrestling via disqualification.
A promo video begins with the history of the Money in the Bank ladder match. It highlights all of the previous winners and their cash ins, with only one failure in Evan Bourne. The voice over comes in and states that tonight, two Money in the Bank ladder matches will text place - with an opportunity at the WWE and World Heavyweight Championship belts on the line. The theme song, "Worlds Collide" by 12 Stones, hits and continues with the highlights of the Money in the Banks previous, and moves on to the other matches tonight with Kofi Kingston defending the World Heavyweight Championship against Sheamus and John Cena defending the WWE Championship against Dean Ambrose and Cody Rhodes.
The cameras go into the TD Garden with the pyros hitting across the stage, and once concluding moving to show the fans inside the arena. Michael Cole, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler welcome everybody to the show, where tonight the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line, and two new threats to the belts will be determined with Money in the Bank! The cameras pan to the ring where Justin Roberts prepares to introduce the opening contest.World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank Ladder Match Bryan Danielson vs Seth Rollins vs The Miz vs Alberto Del Rio with Ricardo Rodriguez vs Sin Cara vs Wade Barrett vs John Morrison vs Damien SandowThe bell rings and all eight men back off to the ropes looking around at each other. They all move at the same time to get out of the ring and charge at the ladders set up on the outside, four separate brawls breaking out. In the midst of all the battle, however, Sandow gets into the ring with a ladder and goes to set it up. As soon as he starts to climb, however, Danielson charges in and yanks him down by the legs, firing off with shots to the head. He drop kicks his rival through the ropes and instead of going up the ladder, he goes right after Sandow! The other six remain on the other side of the ring continuing to battle it out, Rollins throwing one of the ladders down right in the face of Morrison! He flops back down to the floor and Rollins brings the ladder back towards the ring and heads in, setting it up next to the other one. He begins to climb up one and Miz comes in from the other side, climbing on the opposite side of the ladder. The two begin to battle at the top as Del Rio and Cara come in and climb up the other one, all four brawling atop the ladder only for Barrett to charge in and knock all four of them down to the mat! He picks one of the ladders up and puts it up high over his head, throwing right into the back of Miz as he starts to stir. Wade kicks the ladder out of the ring and takes the other one in the ring, pulling it back up and putting over his neck. He charges at the other three in the ring and hits them all at once, sending them all through the ropes and to the floor. He pulls the ladder off and points off to the sides. He turns around to Danielson and he clotheslines Barrett right over the top rope, and he backs off a bit. He looks around the arean and chants 'Yes!' along with the crowd, hitting off the ropes and charging full force through the others onto the other six superstars on the outside! He gets back up onto his feet and continues to chant along with the fans, only to turn and see Sandow climbing up the ladder in the middle of the ring! Bryan charges in and swings up the ladder, quickly pulling Sandow by the hair and smacking his face off the top rung. He continues to pound down until Sandow starts to fight back, Danielson taking him by the neck and driving off with a bulldog, both men being laid out! The two stay laying out on the mat in pain, Del Rio staggering into the ring and attempting to put the ladder back into place, only to be landed on by Morrison diving off the top rope! He gets back up quickly and gets himself onto the ladder, climbing halfway up only to be aware of his surroundings as Barrett comes from behind, and he moonsaults off of the ladder only to be caught on Barrett's shoulder! He laughs and charges forward into the ladder, slamming John's head right off of it! Wade points up the ladder and laughs, "It's gonna be mine again!" and he begins to climb, getting to the top only to have his leg grabbed from below by The Miz, and Barrett tries to kick him free, only to slip off the ladder and land down against the ropes. He charges right at Miz with a big boot but it is ducked under, Miz hitting a huge low blow and tipping him over the top rope and to the floor below! He moves over to the ladder and looks up it, preparing to climb up only to turn his attention to Rollins, trading shots with him and lifting him for a flap jack, Rollins catching a hold of the ladder and swinging himself onto it! He begins to scurry up and gets up towards the briefcase. He begins to try and pull it down but the other superstars in the ring push it over, Seth flopping to the mat and falling out of the ring, holding onto his neck as he lands on the floor. The others begin to burst out into a huge brawl once again, Del Rio managing to take control of things by pulling the ladder up over his head and swinging it wildly around at everybody else! He clears things out and begins to set the ladder up, taunting to the crowd with a shake and laugh. He slaps his chest a few times and shouts out his own name, climbing up to the top of the ladder slowly. He gets right up to the top and grabs the sides of the briefcase, giving a huge smile and kissing it. He goes to unhook it but Morrison manages to springboard off the ropes and onto the ladder at the last second, catching Alberto's neck and slamming his face to the ladder! He moves up a bit and looks around, dragging ADR over the ladder slightly, measuring him up. He hops up suddenly and hooks both legs around the neck, giving a hurricanrana off the ladder and into the arms of Barrett, nailing a huge powerbomb! Both Barrett and Morrison rise slowly, and John goes for a kick only to be caught by the other leg and lifted off the mat, slammed neck first off the ladder! Danielson charges full force at Barrett, however, and dropkicks him through the ropes! He swings himself back up and tosses Miz over the ropes and into the arms of Cara and Rollins. He begins to climb up the ladder, Sandow coming in from the other side and the two getting to the top together. They start to trade shots back and forth, Sandow getting the upper hand and knocking Bryan down a couple of rungs. He starts to unhook the briefcase only for Danielson to get right back up and hit a huge kick around the ladder and into the ribs. He throws a couple more, giving a loud 'Yes!' each time with the WWE Universe. He takes Sandow by the hair and pulls his head backwards, swinging it back forward into the briefcase, Sandow growing dizzy quickly before falling right off the ladder and to the mat! Bryan looks around to see nobody in sight and he takes a hold of the briefcase on both sides, slowly unhooking it with a smile and pulling it free from the ceiling! He raises the briefcase up high as the bell rings.Winner of the match, Bryan Danielson (15:58) ***3/4Danielson clutches the briefcase close to his chest and he pumps his free hand in the air, pointing the index finger up with a chant of 'Yes!' repeatedly with the WWE Universe. He takes a seat on top of the ladder and clutches the briefcase once again before coming down, the replays of the highlights in the match airing - including the ending with Sandow having his face rocked against the briefcase and being sent to the floor. Live in the arena, Danielson makes his way out of the ring and up the ramp, pumping the briefcase up high in the air, the 'Yes!' chants continuing to build up along with the crowd, the other seven superstars remaining disappointed inside and out of the ring. Danielson makes his way to the back. The cameras head backstage to Matt Striker and he introduces his guest at this time to be The World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry. He looks up as Henry walks in, "Mark, you returned to the WWE two months ago and have shown your dominance ever since. You have set your mind on Ryback, and last month at Summerslam got disqualified. Tonight it is no holds barred and many think you can't beat Ryback, your thoughts?" Mark scoffs and laughs a little bit, staring right at Striker. "People think I can't beat Ryback? I've proved to every single person in the world that I am the World's Strongest Man, and Ryback ain't nothin'!" He shakes his head a bit, "I'm done with Ryback after tonight. I'm gonna destroy him and then I'mma move on, cause that's what I do!" He walks off. No Holds Barred MatchMark Henry vs RybackThe bell sounds and the duo stare each other down before coming to the middle of the ring. Ryback says some things and spreads his arms out, pumping them up and down a bit. Henry goes for a punch but Ryback catches it, swinging some hard fists of his own! The crowd gets behind him early as he rocks Henry, causing the World's Strongest Man to shove him back and get out of the ring. He walks around momentarily and Ryback stays in the ring, motioning for Henry to come back in. Mark shakes his head and steps over to the time keeper, ordering him to move. He takes the steel chair he was sitting in and throws it into the ring, Ryback stomping his foot on it. Henry steps back up onto the apron and Ryback slides the chair right over. Henry stares at him and gets back into the ring, leaning down to the chair only for Ryback to come charging with shots to the back and neck repeatedly. Henry sends a quick elbow, however, and knocks him back. He picks the chair up and swings it right across the back! Ryback drops down to a knee and Henry swings it across the back once again! He rolls Ryback over and goes for a pin, getting a two count. Both men rise onto their feet slowly, Henry stepping up and hitting a couple headbutts and a club across the back. He moves back over to the chair and picks it up again, swinging it hard only for Ryback to send a fist right through it to the shock of many! He throws the chair off to the side and charges up to Henry, grabbing onto the back of his legs and attempting to push him back. Henry stays still, however, and sends a huge elbow down on the back of the neck. Henry throws a couple more shots to the spine and drags Ryback to the corner, throwing him face first off of the turnbuckle. He backs off slowly and charges for a splash, Ryback moving out of the way and launching off the ropes. He charges back with a huge clothesline that wobbles Henry. He goes back again and returns with another clothesline. He comes back one more time and nails his hardest clothesline yet, Henry dropping down to the mat! The crowd gives a bit of a pop as Ryback begins to pump his arms up and down, getting a 'Feed Me More' chant to build up. He steps out of the ring and moves over to the steel steps, removing the top set and sliding them into the ring. He gets in slowly and moves off to Henry, hitting him with a couple more shots against the ropes. He hits a knee to the stomach and tries to lift him for a suplex, Henry managing to stay down and get free. He hits a couple of elbows to the neck and backs Ryback off to the ropes, hitting a few chops. He gets hit with a huge shot to the head and Ryback knocks him back towards the steps, attempting to lift Henry up once again. The crowd begins to build up as Ryback manages to get Henry up a little bit, only to fail to get him up enough. He hits off of the ropes and returns with a spear attempt, Henry lifting a knee up - knocking Ryback right down onto the mat! Henry shakes his head about and gives a yell, pulling Ryback up and lifting him up slowly - nailing the World's Strongest Slam right on the steel steps! The Boston audience bursts into boos as Henry hooks the leg for the three count.Winner of the match via pinfall, Mark Henry (8:38) **3/4
The crowd continues to boo loudly as Henry slowly gets up onto his feet, standing over the body of Ryback. He pounds on his chest and shakes his head wildly. He looks right out to the crowd and shouts, "That's what I do!" The replay of the World's Strongest Slam on the steel steps is shown a few times, Henry backing out of the ring and up the ramp in the mean time as Ryback is checked on by the referee. Henry makes his way to the top of the ramp and laughs a bit before heading towards the back, Ryback still hardly moving. A promo video airs with black and white footage of WWE's top stars. A voice over comes in, stating that in a business like this there is always one word that can consistently describe any rivalry. That word is Payback. The video picks up in red lighting, with the likes of John Cena, Randy Orton, Kofi Kingston, Mark Henry and others hitting their finishing moves - with the voice over one again kicking in, stating that the WWE will now welcome in a new pay-per-view on October 28th, where superstars will go head to head seeking Payback. Singles Match for the World Heavyweight ChampionshipSheamus vs Kofi Kingston(c) with John LaurinaitisThe bell sounds and the two charge to the middle of the ring, locking up with each other. Sheamus backs Kingston up into the corner and begins to throw a series of knees to the gut, the referee getting him away at the count of four. Kingston tries to hold Sheamus back by complaining to the referee, and sends a huge kick around the official into the side. He charges up to the Celtic Warrior and pounds him with a series of shots to the side of the head, hitting off of the ropes and returning with a huge leaping DDT! He goes for the pinfall early but Sheamus manages to kick out at two. Kingston gets back up and moves around a bit, hitting a kick to the spine of Sheamus. He hits a couple more and goes for the head, Sheamus catching it and moving himself up, nailing a hard powerbomb! He goes for the pin himself and only gets a two count. Sheamus staggers off to the ropes and motions for Kingston to get back up and he goes for a clothesline, Kofi ducking under it and going for the Trouble in Paradise only to be caught once again and lifted for another powerbomb - Kingston managing to slide down this time and hit a huge backwards kick to the back of Sheamus' knee. He spins around and leaps for a bulldog, dropping right down to the mat with it. He goes for the pin once again, getting a two count once more. Kingston hops right back up and steps out to the apron, climbing to the top turnbuckle only to be hit with a shot to the stomach, Kofi dropping down right on the top turnbuckle! He leans down and Sheamus hits a huge uppercut to the jaw. He throws a couple more and climbs to the second turnbuckle, hooking a hold of Kingston's body and launching off with a huge superplex! Both men remain laid out temporarily, the Celtic Warrior stirring first. He staggers over to the ropes and leans over at Laurinaitis, swiping at him and giving a laugh. He backs off and motions for the belt, Laurinaitis shaking his head in disapproval. Sheamus turns around to the Trouble in Paradise to the displeasure of the crowd! Kingston quickly hooks both legs up only to have a kick out just before three! Kingston rolls off to the side and slams his fists off of the mat in frustration. He staggers back up onto his feet and shakes his head, looking to Laurinaitis and demanding his title belt. The commissioner moves around the ring and retrieves the world title belt, handing it to his champion. Kingston stares at it and measures up Sheamus, charging full force at him and swinging the belt only for the Celtic Warrior to duck under it and nail a huge Brogue Kick! The crowd cheers loudly as Sheamus heads over for the pin only for Laurinaitis to drag Kingston out of the ring and save him! The cheers from the fans turn into boos quickly and Sheamus spreads his arms out in anger. Kingston and Laurinaitis begin to make their way up the ramp only for Sheamus to charge up from behind and club Kingston from behind! Laurinaitis goes to say something but Sheamus backs him up a bit and shoves him down! Kingston steps up from behind and nails a hard kick to the back of the neck! He takes his opponent back towards the ring and gets back in with him. Kingston stirs up and hits a couple of forearms to the skull of Sheamus, backing him against the ropes and hitting a huge spinning DDT.
