The Wyatt Family promos leading up to their debut are getting more and more eerie, this time it pops up after a divas match, wow I love that you are building up towards their debut making it a really big deal and the fact is when these 3 men Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan make their debut there's no telling just who they will go after or just who they will target but I still have my theory that the Wyatt Family were the ones who targeted Sheamus, Mark Henry and Big Show and that Sheamus, Henry and Show inviting the 3 men who attacked them, it's no doubt the Wyatts and should they make their debuts on RAW then I can see them making an immediate impact on Sheamus, Henry and Show again
Danielson to me he just proved just how stupid he really is by choosing to cash in his briefcase on Ziggler at WrestleMania 29 by choosing to cash it in at WrestleMania 29 because think about it logically for a second okay because let's say Danielson cashes in his Money in the Bank on Ziggler at Mania and Danielson loses? Then him cashing in Money in the Bank would have all been for nothing it would then amount to absolutely nothing by him winning Money in the Bank for the 2nd time in his career and then lose it all...because then it would really hurt Danielson whereas if you had him cash in when Ziggler was weak, prone and vulnerable which I know is predictable but it is the right way to go because then that way Danielson's momentum wouldn't ultimately be killed and he would then reach his dream of becoming champion again all that much more quicker
But Danielson vs Ziggler at WrestleMania 29 should be a good one for the World Heavyweight Championship
As for Randy Orton vs Cody Rhodes, I can see this match-up happening at WrestleMania 29 with these 2 men going at it in a match at Mania and considering the history these 2 men have with one another it isn't out of the realm of possibility now is it? Considering these 2 men were in Legacy together Orton mentored Cody with Cody being the student...student vs mentor here and not to mention these 2 men grew up in this business Cody being the son of WWE Hall of Famer the American Dream Dusty Rhodes and Orton being a 3rd generation superstar the son of WWE Hall of Famer Cowboy Bob Orton, Jr. the grandson of Bob Orton Sr. but Orton also being the youngest World Heavyweight Champion in WWE history being a Legend Killer and then being in one of the greatest WWE stables of all time in Evolution, and Rhodes being in one of the WWE's greatest stables of the PG Era in Legacy, these 2 men's paths are somewhat similar with only a few differences between the 2 of them but I really hope this match happens at Mania
I definitely see Ryback vs Christian happening at WrestleMania 29 especially after this, Ryback completely destroyed Christian embarrassed Christian and I can see Christian wanting retribution for it and not to mention this gives Christian a huge WrestleMania match but also gives Ryback a chance to shine too at WrestleMania 29 so for that very reason I can see these 2 going at it there
Can we say Fatal 4-Way for the WWE Tag Team Championship because I know I can because I can see Kings of Wrestling having to defend their titles against not only The Usos but also against Kofi & Big E. and also against the Prime Time Players and if this match happens it is definitely going to happen at Mania that's for sure
But as for Rollins vs RVD I see these 2 going at it again at WrestleMania 29 with the WWE Intercontinental Championship being on the line considering Rollins got himself DQ'ed in order to save his title because he knew RVD had him beat so what does he do? He has to resort to getting himself DQ'ed well that is why I see the Commissioner Stephanie McMahon getting involved saying that if Rollins gets himself intentionally DQed or counted out then he will lose the WWE Intercontinental Championship
As for the 2nd inductee for this 2013 WWE Hall of Fame class I can honestly see it being Mick Foley but just who will induct Mick? I see it being none other than his friend and old tag team partner The Rock, Rock n Sock Connection, with Dwayne inducting Foley
But as for the rest of the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame class it will end up as follows:
Booker T (inducted by: his brother Stevie Ray the other half of Harlem Heat)
Trish Stratus (inducted by: Lita)
Bruno Sammartino (inducted by: Arnold Schwarzenegger)
The Hart Foundation (Bret "The Hitman" Hart, Jim "The Anvil" Neidhart, British Bulldog, and Owen Hart) all inducted by Natalya considering she is the niece of Bret, Bulldog and Owen but also she is the daughter of The Anvil so for that very reason I see her inducting her family into the WWE Hall of Fame

UJK's RAW and SMACKDOWN Review: a nice start to the Highlight Reel with Chris Jericho admitting his loss against CM Punk at No Way Out and then turning his back on the fans and then he talks about making WrestleMania history and he talks about breaking the streak against The Undertaker at WrestleMania, has Jericho got a chance to destroy The Undertaker. He ended Shawn Michaels's career two years ago, he could be the man that could make WrestleMania headlines by defeating The Undertaker cause all like Jimmy Snuka. Jake Roberts. Giant Gonzales. King Kong Bundy. Diesel. Sid. Kane (twice). Bossman. Triple H. Flair. Big Show and A-Train. Orton. Henry. Batista. Edge. Michaels. Cena (twice) and Mr. Mcmahon all failed but Jericho looks hesistant to break the streak. RVD also gets a non-title victory over Seth Rollins. Then Dolph threatening Stephanie and telling her she's doing a bad job like her father and husband. Kofi and Big E that's a strange tag team to me, You've really turned Kofi Kingston into the best heel in this BTB. Solid interview by Orton against Goldust. Before the commentators talk about Rock vs Lesnar. A Strange Promo by Bray Wyatt and his group. and Orton dominating the Rhodes Brothers was bad ass, you've definitely turned Orton into one of the greatest heels ever, great call to add Edge into the Hall of Fame and with his friend Christian to induct him into the hall of fame, expect Christian's rival Ryback to do something crazy, Kaitlyn with a non-title victory over Maryse, still in shock Maryse is still in this BTB. Sheamus and the WWE Champion's conversation went into a strange bizarre occurrence with the lights going out, I'm wondering who's doing this, could it be the Wyatt Family, could it be Kane or could it be Roman Reigns. A successful world title defense with Ziggler against The Big Show but once again, the lights go out and Big Show is attacked by this strange person, I don't know who keeps attacking Sheamus and The Big Show. Kings of Wrestling victorius in another tag team affair with the Usos, then Ryback beats up Christian in the locker room, that Ryback is a total bully, then We have The Miz vs Mark Henry, then the lights go out as Henry gets ready to win, and lights come back on same thing that happened to Sheamus and The Big Show earlier in the night, it's happened to Mark Henry. Whoever this guy is, this guy means business taking out three of the top stars in the WWE. And RAW finally ends with a Cena/Punk confrontation, obviously both men have nothing to lose before WrestleMania 29, now on the SMACKDOWN side of things, We kick off with a great eight-man tag team match with Kofi and Big E and the Kings of Wrestling getting a victory over the Usos and The Primetime Players but the argument between the four sets the stage for a WWE Tag Team Championship Match at WrestleMania, unless it's a four-corners match, great promo by Ziggler/Danielson only to be interrupted by Randy Orton and good save there by Cody Rhodes obviously getting revenge on Randy Orton for what he did to Goldust, I see Rhodes and Orton going at it at WrestleMania 29, and also Ziggler and Danielson for the World Title at WrestleMania 29, that match would be epic. Poor Aksana gets squashed by Beth Phoenix, then suddenly another promo by the Wyatt Family, I'm assuming if they attacked Sheamus. Big Show and Mark Henry, I don't know but it's probably a safe bet, RVD getting a DQ win over Rollins and I was hoping Van Dam was going to win the Intercontinental Championship, here's hoping it leads to a title match at WrestleMania once again, a special stipulation between the two would be good, Henry, Show and Sheamus calling out this man on RAW hopefully they can reveal the identity on this man or the men, and Miz on a losing streak once again by Dean Ambrose, and Ryback completely dominates Christian, good thing the ref called the match, hoping a WrestleMania match between the two men, great tag team match with Orton and Ziggler defeating Danielson and Rhodes, but finally Danielson says he's cashing in his Money in The Bank Contract at WrestleMania 29, YES! YES! YES!, the match I've been dying and waiting to see, Bryan vs Ziggler for the World Heavyweight Championship, I hope Danielson walks away with the World Heavyweight Title really soon, great RAW and SMACKDOWN. looking forward to another diary of yours, hopefully we will see The Undertaker accept Jericho's challenge before WrestleMania 29, but WrestleMania Season is totally unpredictable you never know what's going to happen.

LATEST WWE NEWS AND RUMORS by A.J. Mathews 2/24/13
Christian making his entrance at No Way Out. (Credit to wwe.com)
According to multiple reports, Christian will be missing the next two months due to an undisclosed knee injury. He did manage to tough it out through the week for No Way Out, Raw and Smackdown in order to fill the storyline with Ryback to have his shoulder injured. Christian will appear for the induction of his best friend Edge at the Hall of Fame ceremony the night before WrestleMania.
Chris Jericho speaking on Monday Night Raw 2/18/13. (Credit to wwe.com)
With Chris Jericho challenging The Undertaker to a match at WrestleMania this past Monday on Raw, it seems very likely to happen. However, rumor has it that Jericho may be taking time off following WrestleMania season to spend time with his band, Fozzy. Jericho was recently interviewed in regards to his future with the company and he did say he was 'completely unsure' about what would happen down the road. However, in regards to The Undertaker, there are no plans for him to retire after WrestleMania.

Here at Bleacher Report, we anticipated The Wyatt Family to be debuting during the summertime. However, their promo videos have began airing in the past week. A lot of speculation has risen up that they were the ones whom attacked Big Show, Sheamus and Mark Henry on Raw but there is no confirmation of that being the deal. Reports are that while it seems quite clear that The Wyatt's were the attackers of three of the biggest (size and star) superstars in the WWE, it may not be them when revealed. If it is in fact not The Wyatt Family, it would be some what of a surprise and the group would probably debut post-WrestleMania.

It is most definitely The Wyatts who attacked Sheamus, Show and Henry, it's just gotta be
But as for Jericho wanting to end The Streak, I wonder if Taker will accept Jericho's challenge? Because what makes Jericho think he is any different from any of the other 20 who tried but failed to end the streak? And what makes Jericho so worthy? Jericho has lost his touch
So Christian if he is out for 2 months, by the time he comes back he can be back in time for WrestleMania 29 or make his return the night after WrestleMania 29

A solid Eight Man Tag match to kick off SmackDown. The heel unit getting the win wasn’t all that surprising, but I do love that the faces ultimately stood tall. Next, a great promo from the World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler, leading to Bryan Danielson hinting at a legitimate Money In The Bank cash-in. Liked the chaos that followed with Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes getting involved, setting the stage for tonight’s main event. Beth Phoenix getting the obvious win over Aksana was fine. Very interesting to have her post-match promo be interrupted by The Wyatt Family. I imagine that the trio will debut either at WrestleMania or the week following it. Can’t wait to see how they plat out here. A fantastic Intercontinental Championship match to round out the first hour. Would have liked for Seth Rollins to have retained in a clean manner, but I’ll go ahead and assume that this feud will extend to ‘Mania. Next, a fine in-ring segment with Sheamus, Big Show and Mark Henry discussing their mysterious attacks on RAW. I like the idea of the three of them banding together to eliminate a common enemy, but assuming that their assailants are The Wyatt Family, I don’t see this ending victoriously for them. Glad to see Dean Ambrose score the win over The Miz. I do hope that at some point after WrestleMania, Ambrose can find himself in a noteworthy program, since I don’t expect him to be involved in one from now until April 7th. Ryback and Christian’s match being stopped, I quite like it. It gets Ryback a ton of heat on him, and if Christian does indeed take time off as your report suggests, his return feud is already cemented. Lastly, an awesome Tag Team main event. Dolph Ziggler and Randy Orton getting the victory didn’t come as much of surprise, and neither did Bryan Danielson’s announcement that he will be cashing in his briefcase at WrestleMania. Despite that, I can’t wait for it. Danielson and Ziggler have some serious potential to steal the show at ‘Mania, even with an already stacked card with Punk/Cena and Brock/Rock. Overall, a great edition of SmackDown.

February 25, 2013 from the American Airlines Center in Dallas, Texas
The Monday Night Raw intro video airs and the cameras pan into the arena, with the pyrotechnics going off across the stage as Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler welcome everybody to the show. Tonight, the show is packed! WWE Champion John Cena and CM Punk will be signing a contract for their match at WrestleMania and Stephanie McMahon has an announcement to make in regards to it. Bryan Danielson will take Randy Orton on one-on-one, Chris Jericho will look for an answer from The Undertaker and apparently Brock Lesnar and The Rock are both here in the arena tonight!
The cameras pan around the arena and to the crowd and the signature theme song of Brock Lesnar hits. The WWE Universe erupts as Paul Heyman makes his way out from the back and the fans cheering start to boo as Heyman slowly makes his way down to the ring as Lesnar doesn't follow his agent. Heyman gets into the ring and takes a microphone with a smile, laughing to the crowd before speaking. "Oh, oh you thought you were going to get my client Brock Lesnar? No, no, no, no! He is not even here tonight, folks!" The fans begin to boo him even louder than before as Heyman stuffs his free hand in his jacket pocket. "You all can boo me and boo me but the fact of the matter is the only chance you'll get to see my client is at WrestleMania when he destroys your hero, The Rock! If you don't recall, I was assaulted by that man and dropped through a table at No Way Out! I know a lot of you would like to see my client come out here and get into a fight with his opponent in Dwayne, but that is just too damn bad for all of you, now isn't it!?" He continues to laugh and tells everybody he has been speaking to Brock and with the stipulation of the match being even more of an advantage and more dangerous than just a simple straight up match and that Brock will do what the match is set up for - no holds barred, and he will not hold back. "So ladies and gentlemen, with that message delivered from my client - I bid you ado." He heads for the ropes and starts to get out of the ring but The Rock's theme song hits and the crowd goes absolutely crazy!
The Rock comes out from the back and stares down Heyman with a smile, remembering what he did last Sunday at No Way Out. He storms down to the ring and hops right in, pointing at Paul to stay in the ring. He calls for a microphone of his own and stares down the agent of his rival. "Hey, Walrus Fingers calm your ass down and stay still before The Rock comes over there and smacks the piss out of ya!" The crowd cheers as Heyman rolls his eyes and backs up towards the middle of the ring once again, folding his hands in front of him. The Rock wags his finger towards Paul and pulls his microphone back up, "Now The Rock knows that Brock Lesnar is here tonight and because Paul Heyman says he is not going to be out here, that must mean he will be out here eventually! And The Rock ain't gonna let that opportunity slip because The Rock got his hands all over you Paul Heyman... he got his hands all over you but he barely got any thing in on Brock Lesnar. Now, don't get The Rock wrong because if The Rock has to beat the crap out of Paul Heyman to get to Brock Lesnar The Rock is going to do just that!" He looks around the arena to the cheering crowd and puts his hand up to them all, "The Rock almost forgot... FINALLY! THE ROCK! HAS COME BACK! TO DALLLLLLLA---" Before he can finish, however, Heyman tells him to shut his mouth, leading to a ton of heat from the Dallas, Texas fans. He tells Rock that he can stop with the insults and the threats and the playing to the crowd because Brock Lesnar is not coming out. Heyman pardons himself and heads toward the ropes, only for Rock to pull him back to the middle of the ring by the back of the neck. Paul drops down onto one knee and starts to plead, Brock Lesnar's theme song hitting once again! The Rock throws Heyman down to the mat and moves towards the ropes, staring up the ramp with a grin. He leans down a bit and continues to wait, the fans giving a yell as Lesnar hops into the ring from behind!
Brock charges up behind Rock and clubs him right across the back and then the neck! He continues to pound away over and over and brings Rock up into the corner and begins to plow a series of knees into the still damaged ribs. Lesnar gives a loud yell to the WWE Universe and lifts him up off the mat again, charging towards the middle of the ring before hitting a vicious spinebuster! Brock is ordered by Heyman to take him out of the ring and he follows. The Beast rips the cover off of the announce table and the commentary team gets onto their feet, pleading with Brock to not do anything. He pulls Rock out of the ring and plows him in the face with one of the monitors! He stands over Dwayne for a couple of moments with a sick grin before dragging him back up, only to be met with a couple of shots to the head. The Rock seems to be mounting a come back but Brock sends a sudden knee into the bad ribs once again and throws Rock back against the ring. He takes him by the neck and backs up towards the announce table once again. He lifts Rock up off the ground and puts him onto his shoulders, giving a laugh to his agent before delivering the F5 straight through the table! The crowd gives a very loud mixed reaction as Lesnar rises up onto his feet, Heyman pulling him away slowly with a smile across his face.
Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins defeats The Miz in a non-title match via pinfall The match starts off with The Miz getting some early offense in and rocking Rollins around a bit. The Intercontinental Champion gets frustrated and rakes the eyes. He ignores the referee's warning and starts to pound Miz down against the ropes and into the corner. He works him viciously for about two minutes before going for the Superkick, Miz ducking underneath it. He immediately goes for the Skull Crushing Finale only for Rollins to send an elbow to knock him back. He sends a vicious Superkick and gets the pinfall afterward.
Rollins rises up onto his feet slowly and snatches his Intercontinental Championship away from the referee. he backs him off to the ropes and looks to Miz trying to struggle onto his feet. Rollins storms up to him and hits a hard shot to the back of the head with the title belt! The crowd boos as Rollins stands over and starts to stop down on the head repeatedly. Finally, Rob Van Dam rushes down from the back with a steel chair in his hands and he throws it right at the ropes, causing Rollins to back off. RVD rolls into the ring with the chair and chases Rollins off to the other side of the ring, causing the Intercontinental Champion to roll out and hop right over the barricade to get out of the way. He backs his way through the crowd as RVD tosses the chair to the floor on the outside. He stares down Rollins before heading over to The Miz and checking on him as he holds onto his head in pain.
Ryback defeats Santino Marella via pinfall As soon as the bell rings Santino pretends to faint in the middle of the ring. Ryback drags him up by the straps and clobbers him across the spine with his forearm. He works him around for a few minutes and seems to be on his way to an easy victory until Santino slips off the shoulders on the Shell Shocked attempt. Marella begins to fire off strikes to the head and he pulls the Cobra out of his tights! The crowd begins to cheer wildly but as Santino goes to strike with the Cobra, Ryback catches his arm and pulls him up to deliver Shell Shocked right in the middle of the ring! He hooks both legs quickly and gets the three count from the referee.
Ryback rises up onto his feet and pumps his arms up and down to the booing crowd. He marches around the ring a couple of times before laughing and heading out of the ring and towards the back, dominant in his win tonight. As he looks towards the camera, however, the screen fuzzes up and a promo video begins to air with the same barded men as seen in the promos last week. They talk about many of the same things and the main man gives a laugh into the camera towards the end, "Monsters are real... they lie within us. Our exterior, though, no.. no... our exterior is nothing, it is part of our mental fixture to believe it is... follow the buzzards!" He gives a deep laugh, lights a lantern and gives the warning of 'We're Coming' before blowing the lantern out.
Returning, the theme song of Sheamus hits and The Celtic Warrior brings himself down to the ring. Mark Henry's theme music hits next and he brings himself down to the ring as well. Lastly, Big Show makes his way out and joins the other two in the ring. All three men look up the ramp and then back towards the crowd, Henry speaking up. "Let me make this short 'n sweet... whoever was dumb enough to not only attack The World's Strongest Man, but attack The Celtic Warrior and the World's Largest Athlete, come on out here and show your face so we can get it on right here, right now!" The crowd cheers on as Sheamus puts his hand out in front of Henry to calm him down. "Alright, fella, whoever ya is we understand you're tryin' to make a statement by beating down three of the toughest guys in the business. If you want to come out here and explain yourself, come on out so you can do that before we kick your arse." Show wags his finger and steps out in front of the two. "I don't want to give whoever it is an opportunity to explain themselves, Sheamus, I want to agree with Mark here and call whoever it is out so we can knock them out!" The Dallas crowd pops for the challenge as the lights start to flicker. Show yells out to the other two, telling them to get ready.
The lights flicker back on and all three men stay in the ring all by themselves. Henry pulls his microphone very angry, "Enough of the damn games, get your ass out here and put up a fight!" He throws the microphone down and the lights begin to flicker once again. The lights completely go out and slams and shouts can be heard from inside the ring. The lights come back on after about thirty seconds and all three men are laid out on the mat with a steel chair left sitting up against the ropes. Officials and medics come rushing down to the ring in order to give attention to the three men, downed for the second week in a row.
WWE Tag Team Champions Kings of Wrestling defeat The Usos via pinfall The bell sounds as Cesaro kicks things off with Jey. The two go back and forth with fast paced action but Cesaro floors him with an elbow to the face, leading to a tag to Ohno. He comes in and gets some work in and the tag champions begin to make some frequent tags. As Cesaro prepares for his signature swing, however, Jey sends a fist up and gets free. He dives off to the corner and tags in Jimmy and he rushes right in, trading shots with Cesaro before hitting an arm drag. He runs to Ohno in the corner and knocks him off the apron. Jey comes in and runs with Jimmy to rock Antonio around a bit. They for a double suplex but Kassius rushes into the ring again and the brothers turn their attention to him and send him over the ropes. Jey leaps right over the ropes and takes him down, leading to the Cesaro Swing on Jimmy - followed up by the Very European Uppercut and the pinfall.
Cesaro gets onto his feet with a smile as Jey comes back into the ring, shoving Cesaro. The tag champion comes back with a shove of his own. Ohno comes into the ring but The Prime Time Players rush down to the ring and start to put up a fight with the tag champions, Kofi Kingston and Big E Langston coming down as well to get into the mix of things. An all out brawl breaks out between the four teams, leading to the referee losing complete control of the situation.
Returning, Stephanie McMahon is in her office talking to the production crew about the contract signing later on in the night. WWE Champion John Cena walks in with a smile across his face and asks Steph how she is doing before telling her that tonight he hopes things don't go down like they seem to always go down in contract signings. Stephanie says she hopes the same but Cena informs her that if he has to give Punk a little Attitude Adjustment, he won't hesitate. He heads out of the office with a smile.
Out in the ring, Diva's Champion Kaitlyn and Layla stand in the ring talking with each other. Beth Phoenix's theme music hits and she comes out to the ramp with Natalya with a smile across her face. Beth brings the microphone up, "Last week I warned you Kaitlyn that I'd have somebody for you to face here tonight and it might be somebody you recognize... AJ Lee!" The crazy diva brings herself out from the back, skipping per usual. She brings herself down towards the ring and gets in, as she has returned after being gone since last summer with injury.
AJ Lee with Beth Phoenix and Natalya defeats Diva's Champion Kaitlyn with Layla in a non-title match via pinfall The bell rings and AJ outsmarts Kaitlyn early on, getting away from her multiple times and giving a laugh. Kaitlyn tackles AJ by the legs and starts to pound her head against the mat, only for Lee to get free and back onto her feet. She sends a huge kick to the stomach and starts to take control of things over the Diva's Champion for the next minute. Kaitlyn goes for the Spear after hitting a trip into the turnbuckles, but ends up hitting the steel post shoulder first! As AJ crawls away and the referee looks to her, Beth Phoenix hits a cheap boot to the face in between the steel post! Layla begins to yell for the referee's attention to take notice of it. He turns to see nothing, however, and AJ proceeds to lock on the Black Widow! Kaitlyn struggles at first but eventually taps out.
Kaitlyn stays laid out on the mat and Layla comes in to check on her. AJ skips around with a smile across her face as Phoenix and Natalya come into the ring to join her in celebration of the victory. Layla gets onto her feet and steps up to the trio and yells in their face, only to get kicked in the stomach by Natalya. Phoenix orders AJ to lock her in the Black Widow, and she does so. She lets go after a little while and stands tall along with Phoenix and Natalya, as this trio of divas are a force to be reckoned with. A graphic appears for the match coming up next between World Champion Dolph Ziggler and Cody Rhodes.
The cameras pan to ringside where Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler talk about how last week, Edge was announced as the first inductee into the Hall of Fame this year. Tonight, they announce the second inductee into the 2013 class: Bob Backlund. A promo video airs over the course of Backlund's career and his time as WWE Champion, including on one occasion for over five years. The video also shows his later years of his career going crazy and spending time known as "Mr. Bucklund". He will be inducted by friend Maria Menounos.
World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler defeats Cody Rhodes via pinfall in a non-title match The match begins with the two locking up, Ziggler tripping Rhodes' legs out from under him. He mounts on top of him and starts to fire away with shots and takes control of the match for the opening minutes. He goes off the top roe pfor a clothesline but Rhodes hits him with a club to the stomach. Rhodes swings momentum his way and delivers a huge Disaster Kick that rocks Ziggler out of the ring, leading to a commercial break interrupting. Upon the return, Rhodes remains in control of the match and starts to pick up the pace of things and gets a couple of near falls. He goes for a second isaster Kick but Ziggler manages to duck under it and hit a huge superkick. He goes for the Zig Zag but Rhodes holds onto the ropes and hits the Kick on the third attempt of the match. He sets up for the Cross Rhodes but Ziggler manages to roll his body away, duck a clothesline and nail the Zig Zag! He hooks both legs up and pulls the tights without the referee noticing, giving him the three count and victory.
The crowd boos as Ziggler gets onto his feet with a laugh, taking his World Heavyweight Championship from ringside. The official raises his hand up and he moves over to Rhodes, standing over him. he raises the belt up once again, "Bryan is going to have the same fate at WrestleMania! Haha!" He continues to laugh as he backs off to the ropes and out of the ring, Rhodes left down on the mat. The cameras pan backstage to Chris Jericho, as he will be calling for an answer from The Undertaker about his WrestleMania challenge - next!
Returning, the crowd is scanned over by the cameras as they cheer. The theme of Chris Jericho hits and the arena explodes with a mix of cheers and boos. He brings himself out from the back and makes his way down to the ring slowly, getting right in and grabbing a microphone from ringside. "Last week I walked down to this ring and hosted The Highlight Reel with myself, the only person that matters in my world right now, because I am the best in the world at what I do..." The boos get loud as Jericho take a pause to let them come in. "And what I did was make the challenge to The Undertaker at WrestleMania in order to end his streak. Now, the Dead Man disappeared after his little reign of terror into Summerslam last year and I believe he has finally come to realization that he is washed up. That he is no longer the dominant and superior superstar he once was... all those things what you people say about me!" He glares out to the crowd and points his finger, "You all think the same thing... that Chris Jericho doesn't have anything left and should just walk away. But none of you say that about The Undertaker... and if he has the guts to step into this ring with the best in the world at what I do at WrestleMania then I will prove to each and every single one of you ignorant, contradicting, hypocritical people... that I am just what I say I am." He looks around to the booing crowd and the lights suddenly go out, leading to a giant pop from the Dallas fans.
The signature toll of the Dead Man hits and the fans get louder and louder at each ring. The lights slowly emerge from black to blue as The Undertaker makes his way out from the back slowly, leading to the loudest pop yet. He slowly brings himself out to the center of the stage before coming down the ramp. He finishes off his signature entrance and enters the ring, staring Jericho down from across the ring. He continues to stare as Jericho stays back against the opposite side of the ring. The Dead Man takes a step forward towards the middle of the ring and clutches his own microphone in his hand. Y2J asks if he has an answer for him and Undertaker slowly brings the microphone up with a glare. "You come out here and say... I'm washed up... I'm no longer dominant as I was in the past..." He takes another step forward, "What makes you prove anything if you defeat somebody that is washed up and not dominant upon the grandest stage of them all?" He continues to stare Jericho down, "Is there true fear hidden within your heart, mind and soul, Chris?" The crowd cheers on as Jericho looks around with an angry look across his face. Taker continues, "You can believe what you want to believe and lie to yourself, Chris, but when WrestleMania comes and you stand in the yard with the big dog, you will be bitten and you will Rest... in... Peace..." He rolls his eyes back as the lights go back out, the signature toll hitting and the crowd popping. The lights come back on, Jericho standing in the ring by himself with a somewhat worried look across his face as it appears the challenge has been accepted.
Returning, Matt Striker stands backstage and introduces his guest at this time to be Bryan Danielson. The WWE Universe pops in the background as he steps forward. Striker thanks him for his time and asks him about his reason for cashing in his Money in the Bank at WrestleMania against Dolph Ziggler. "Matt, a couple of years ago I won the Royal Rumble match and went on to face John Cena for the WWE Championship. I ended up losing that night but ended up winning the night after and I tell you what... it didn't feel as great as I thought it would because I was still upset with myself for losing the night before. At WrestleMania I plan on taking my one shot and becoming the World Heavyweight Champion. Yes! Yes! Yes!" He continues to chant, the crowd soon joining him before he heads off.
Dean Ambrose defeats R-Truth via pinfall The bell rings and Ambrose immediately beats down Truth over and over in the corner, causing the referee to back him off. Ambrose stays vicious and gets a couple of near falls, Truth mounting a comeback after avoiding a clothesline in the corner. Truth gets some momentum going and gets the crowd behind him. He goes for the Scissors Kick but Ambrose manages to jump out of the way and hit the Headlock Driver. He scoops both legs up and gets the three count.
Ambrose rises up onto his feet and marches around the ring, giving a yell out to the crowd as he has shown dominance once again. He stands over Truth with a sick grin before heading out of the ring. The cameras turn to the back to see Bryan Danielson and Randy Orton walking down separate hallways, as the will be meeting up next. A graphic follows up for later on, the contract signing between CM Punk and John Cena for their match at WrestleMania for the WWE Championship.
Returning, a promo video airs featuring superstars such as John Cena, Bryan Danielson, Kaitlyn and The Miz talking to children in a small community about not being a bully, but being a star.
Bryan Danielson defeats Randy Orton via disqualification The bell sounds and the two move around the ring before coming to the middle and starting things off with surges of momentum each and a couple of near falls. Orton goes for the RKO early on but Bryan shoves him forward and nails him with a hard droopkick into the corner. He grabs onto the ropes , leaps up and swings down with a kick right to the face. Orton rolls out of the ring and Danielson gets up, goes off of the other side of the ring and returns with a dive to the outside and into the announce table. A commercial break comes afterward, and upon the return Orton has control of things. He dominates Danielson all across the ring and ends up dropping him with the RKO after shoving him off the ropes. He hooks both legs up fast but only gets a two count. The Viper starts to snap a bit and throws Bryan around the ring some more, only for Danielson to knock him down with a shove. He gets onto his feet and hits the high running knee! As Danielson seems to be getting ready for the Yes! Lock, though, Dolph Ziggler rushes into the ring from behind and drops him down to the mat with the World title belt! The referee has no choice but to call for the disqualification.
Ziggler continues to stomp away at Danielson and Orton soon joins him until Cody Rhodes rushes himself down to the ring and hops right in, getting into the mix of things only to get hit with the RKO by Orton as he turns away from the World Heavyweight Champion! The crowd boos loudly as Danielson and Rhodes remain laid out on the mat with Orton and Ziggler standing tall over their respective rivals. The referee checks down on the two downed men and calls for the other two to stay back. They nod to each other and leave the ring.
The arena is looked over and in the ring a table is set up for the official contract signing between CM Punk and John Cena for the WWE Championship. Commissioner Stephanie McMahon's music hits and she brings herself out from the back to a small pop from the crowd. She brings herself to the ring and takes a microphone, thanking everybody for their reception. "Tonight, we will have the official contract signing for one of the biggest matches the WWE has seen. Two of the biggest superstars in this industry will be going head to head in the main event of WrestleMania for the WWE Championship!" She smiles as the crowd cheers, and the Commissioner proceeds to go on and introduce the challenger in the match, CM Punk. He comes out to a very, very loud mixed reaction from the crowd. He brings himself down to the ring and stares out to the crowd and Stephanie goes forth to announce the WWE Champion, John Cena, and he gets the same type of reaction as Punk. He comes down into the ring and raises the title belt high over the table to Punk. Punk stands up from his chair and the two start to talk trash back and forth, causing Stephanie to put her hand out and tell the two to take a seat. She thanks them both for being here and says that before they sign the contract, she will give each of them a chance to speak with Punk being first. "Do you have anything to say, Punk?"
The challenger begins to laugh as he pulls his microphone up, "Do I have anything to say? When don't I have anything to say Stephanie? of course I do! I always have something to say especially when it regards people that I don't like and I don't like you, John." He gives a smile and leans across the table, "When I don't like people and I get to face them in the ring I put up my best efforts to make sure they get destroyed. I make sure they walk out feeling ashamed of themselves for not even being worthy of being in the ring with the best in the world and John, I dislike you more than anybody in that locker room at this very moment. So when we face each other one on one on the grandest stage of them all it is plain and simple... I'm going to kick your ass, make you Go To Sleep and take the WWE Championship because I deserve and have earned it." The two stare down and Cena grows a huge smile across his face. Stephanie asks John if he has anything to say and he gives a resounding 'oh hell yes'. "You don't need to like me, Punk, I don't give a damn what your opinion of me is. But what I do give a damn about is what your opinion of these people that pay good money to see the best superstars in the world is. You walk out here and you not only disrespect everybody that doesn't agree wtih you but you dsirespect each and every one of them. Now, I know that some of these people don't like me and they have the right to that opinion just as you do but I come out here and I fight for their entertainment and when somebody crosses the line by treating these people..." He stands up and points out to all of them, "Treating these people, the greatest fans in the world, like dirt and guess what Punk? I'm just like you in that case. I'm going to kick your ass because I don't like you. I wish you the best of luck in our match at WrestleMania because I will put up the greatest fight of my life to defend my WWE Championship that symbolizes these people." He throws his microphone down, flips through the contract and prepares to sign his name, only for Stephanie to stop him before he can do so.
"Before you do sign that contract, John, I do have one more announcement beforehand in regards to this match..." She gains the attention of everyone, especially the two superstars, "Due to the severity of this match I have decided along with the board of directors that there should be a special guest enforcer. That special guest enforcer is a fair, fair man that both of you are very familiar with." She gestures up the ramp, Cena and Punk turning their attention there. After a couple of moments of silence, the theme song of Triple H hits and the Dallas crowd erupts! The Game emerges from the back sporting short hair and a suit. He folds his hands in front of him and he makes his way towards the ring, Punk clearly unhappy about this announcement. He enters the ring and stands beside his wife, shaking hands with Cena. He offers a handshake to Punk but he refuses. He pulls his microphone up and starts to yell, "No! No! You know this is bullcrap, Stephanie! This is clearly some type of sabotage to put this ego-driven douchebag that you call your husband as a part of this match to make sure I don't walk out as WWE Champion!" Stephanie tells him to calm down but Punk cuts her off, "No, you shut your damn mouth! As the Royal Rumble winner I should have this match one on one with nobody else involved, and if this is what you call fair then you need to re-evaluate yourself you stupid bitch!" Triple H steps forward and Punk goes up to him to swing a fist, only for Cena to catch it and lift him onto his shoulders, delivering the Attitude Adjustment right through the table! The Dallas crowd pops as Cena stands over Punk and looks back to Triple H and Stephanie McMahon, as things are left unfinished with the contract not signed by either man as Monday Night Raw comes to an end! ©2013 WWE, Inc.

good start to kick off RAW with Paul Heyman coming out and The Rock interrupting him with Brock Lesnar showing up and putting a beatdown on The Rock and even hitting the F5 on The Announce Table, That Announce Table no doubt is perfectly going to be legal at WrestleMania 29 when they face off in a No Holds Barred Match
Solid win for Rollins beating The Miz, but then Van Dam coming out with a steel chair chasing Rollins off, here's hoping we see a match between the two of them at WrestleMania for the Intercontinental Championship in some type of match.
Well, Ryback squashed Santino. Poor Santino tried his hand, you had him three years in this diary as the United States Champion to a jobber now,
But the strange eerie segment of the Wyatt Family once again makes me wonder if they're targeting Sheamus. Mark Henry and Big Show who were taken out by this strange person or whoever it is last week and yet they got taken out again by a Steel Chair, I think it's the Wyatt Family,
Great tag team match with the Usos and The Kings of Wrestling, but just like SMACKDOWN, Another brawl breaks out between these four teams once again, hope we get to see a four-corners tag team match for the titles at WrestleMania with Kofi and Big E winning the belts, hopefully.
AJ is back and back for redemption against her ex-friend Natalya defeating her in a non-title match joining with the likes of Beth Phoenix and Natalya, these three will make a strange duo in this BTB. Maybe it could've been them that took out Sheamus. Mark Henry and Big Show. No, that was a joke but anyway, all the divas need to beware cause this could be like the Mean Girls Movie in 2004,
Back and forth match with Ziggler and Rhodes there, totally a great match between them, and a good big win for Ziggler giving him a little bit of time before his championship match against Bryan at WrestleMania 29 in which I hope Bryan wins, YES! YES! YES!.
The Undertaker is back to shut Jericho's mouth up, Jericho and Taker at WrestleMania 29, think about this like I said last week. Jericho's had a history of Wrestlemanias, he won the European Title at WrestleMania 16, he walked in, but not out at WrestleMania 18 as the Undisputed Champion, at WrestleMania 21, he created the Money In The Bank Match, at WrestleMania 27, ended the career of Shawn Michaels, but could he be the guy that breaks The Undertaker's streak, we've seen guys like Jimmy Snuka. Jake Roberts. Giant Gonzales. King Kong Bundy. Diesel. Sid. Kane. Bossman. Triple H. Flair. Show. A-Train. Orton. Henry. Batista. Edge. HBK. Cena and Mcmahon, they've all said they're going to break The Undertaker's streak, but all those 19 people failed although Taker's beat Kane and Cena twice, Jericho better have all that brash to talk about because if he does break The Undertaker's streak he could shock WrestleMania history once again,
awesome win for Ambrose over R-Truth. Hoping you give Ambrose a major push here soon, cause his push by being on The Undertaker's side really helped, but then after he lost to Cody Rhodes, he started becoming soft, but hope you give him another major push again,
great Bryan/Orton match in what could've gone either way until Dolph Ziggler shows up and helps Randy Orton beat up on Daniel Bryan, then Rhodes tries to make the save but he gets the RKO for his trouble. Orton and Ziggler sending a message to their WrestleMania opponents,
Cena/Punk, contract signing, it didn't get signed because of Stephanie announcing a special guest enforcer and that man is none other than Triple H with a short haircut, loved the way Cena laid out CM Punk by hitting the attitude adjustment, hope Triple H calls the match down the middle, but I'm a little concerned with Triple H and Stephanie joining forces with CM Punk but either way, CM Punk and John Cena should be a good match at WrestleMania 29,
great RAW, Like Always, looking forward for more RAW and SMACKDOWN's before the road to WrestleMania.

Paul Heyman clearly setting up a trap for The Rock and The Rock fell right into it with Lesnar showing up and beating down The Rock again hitting an F-5 on the announce table but after weakening The Rock via his ribs you know Brock is going to target those ribs throughout the whole match at WrestleMania 29 because it is No Holds Barred which means it's No DQ, that means they can use steel chairs, any sort of weapons throughout the match but either way Brock/Rock will be in contention for Match of the Year for sure when it comes time for the Slammy Awards
Rollins beating The Miz, this just goes to show us that Miz is on a downward spiral and that it may come time for Miz to finally revert back to being a heel and turning heel because as a face Miz is starting to get stale and as a heel you can make Miz relevant again, you can actually make him worth a damn again because this man Miz is a former World Champion in your diary a former WWE Champion, and now he is being reduced to this losing all the time, but with Miz turning heel again he can finally become the most must-see champion all over again and rise back up into the main event but with Rollins just who can beat him for that IC Title? RVD showing up yet again just goes to show us that it will be RVD vs Rollins at Mania
Ryback Rules!!!!!!!!!!! Ryback beating Santino, here is hoping you have Ryback go on quite the winning streak or at least develop a winning streak so then that way Ryback can be back where he belongs and that is being in the main event but as for Santino he's nothing more than a joke
Sheamus, Show and Henry being attacked yet again, it makes me wonder if The Wyatt Family is behind this? Because I know that they are...all signs are pointing to them being the culprits and with their eerie promos interrupting superstars after their matches, yes they are coming and when they do every person in that locker room better be on their toes or better yet they should watch their backs because you never know when Wyatt, Harper and Rowan will strike
I am telling you it is going to be Kings of Wrestling vs The Usos vs Primetime Players vs Kofi & Big E. in a Fatal 4-Way for the WWE Tag Team Championship at Mania and if that happens then Kings of Wrestling are at a disadvantage having to defend against not 1, not 2 but 3 other teams
AJ is back, and she joins The Divas of Doom by joining Beth and Natalya, I would have never have called that but at the same time these trio of divas they could single-handedly take over that divas locker room hell even take over the division because who can stand up to these 3? No one can but something tells me that there is going to be a twist here and that Kaitlyn is going to have to defend her WWE Divas Championship against not only Beth but Natalya and AJ all in a Fatal 4-Way and if that happens then we will see if the trio will turn on each other because I am sure they all want what Kaitlyn has and that is the WWE Divas Championship
Ziggler vs Rhodes if anything this match just proves that these 2 have chemistry in the ring together but Ziggler seems to be on a roll now beating Rhodes seemingly coming into his own as the World Heavyweight Champion actually starting to win matches but at WrestleMania 29 with the lights on bright, the spotlight being on Dolph, I wonder if he will be able to beat Danielson at WrestleMania 29, I am praying Danielson beats Ziggler at WrestleMania 29
The Undertaker returns and this segment if anything was the best segment by far, Undertaker being back to shut up Jericho was great because I loved Undertaker getting inside of Jericho's head telling Jericho that he just doesn't have what it takes to beat Taker but that 19 other men said that they were going to beat The Undertaker at WrestleMania where Undertaker is 20-0, yes sure Jericho may have ended Shawn Michaels' career at WrestleMania 27 yes he may have created the Money in the Bank, yes he was the first-ever WWE Undisputed Champion, but he has never ever faced The Undertaker at WrestleMania so what makes Jericho any different from the 19 other men that have faced Taker? What makes Jericho different from Jimmy Snuka? Jake the Snake Roberts? Giant Gonzales? King Kong Bundy? Diesel Kevin Nash? Sid? Kane twice? Big Boss Man? Triple H? Flair? Big Show & A-Train? Orton? Henry? Batista? Edge? Shawn Michaels? Cena twice? And the Chairman of this company Vince McMahon and his son Shane McMahon? Yes what makes Jericho any different from any one of them because they all said that they were going to end Taker's streak but in the end they all failed so what makes Jericho think he stands a chance here against The Dead Man?
Ambrose back to winning ways yet again this time beating R-Truth, well here is hoping you have Ambrose get a push again considering his push did come by being The Undertaker's protege by Undertaker taking Ambrose under his wing mentoring him, but then afterwards Ambrose started to become soft, started to become weak after his rivalry with Cody Rhodes, so here is hoping you have Ambrose become the psychotic, deranged demented twisted maniac he should have always been
Bryan vs Orton if anything was a great match, a match that shows that Orton and Bryan could be a future SummerSlam or even a future WrestleMania main event match and it was great until Ziggler had to stick his nose where it didn't belong but then Ziggler and Orton beating up on Danielson only for Cody to make the save and or try to but in the end failing as Orton lays out Cody with an RKO, was hoping he would have punted Cody in the skull
Cena/Punk contract signing I loved it too but Triple H as the Special Guest Enforcer, Triple H with his new short haircut, and Cena laying out Punk with an Attitude Adjustment through the table, I have a feeling that Triple H is not going to call this match down the middle and that he is going to screw Cena and ultimately side with Punk joining forces with Punk, I AM CALLING A TRIPLE H & STEPHANIE HEEL TURN RIGHT HERE AND NOW!!!!!!!!!!! YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!!!!!!!!! I smell a rat here...Triple H is going to screw Cena right along with Stephanie on the grandest stage of them all, so predictable

Or we could see a reverse instead with Triple H and Stephanie screwing Punk, a double turn with Cena turning heel and aligning himself with Triple H and Stephanie who turn heel along with Cena with Punk who is the heel turning babyface, I could see a double turn in this match if it happens
Oh yes that reminds me I forgot to comment on the 2nd inductee of the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame, you choosing Bob Backlund, I can definitely understand that, that's for sure but here is hoping you induct a stable next into the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame by inducting either the Hart Foundation Bret, Bulldog, Neidhart, and Owen as a group or induct Hogan, Nash and Hall the nWo as a stable
Paul Heyman I can actually see him getting inducted into the 2013 WWE Hall of Fame, Heyman possibly the greatest manager of all time, all of his clients or all of his guys have gone on to become World Champions
Sable I can actually see her getting inducted because that's Brock's wife and not to mention she was one of the greatest divas of her generation in the Attitude Era certainly one of the sexiest divas of the Attitude Era and she was WWE Women's Champion too on top of it
Lita I can actually see her being inducted as well
Paul Bearer I can actually see Kane's father being inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame but also Bearer he managed The Undertaker, long-time friends long-time confidantes so that is why I can see Paul being inducted
D-Generation X being inducted as a stable I can actually see it happening with Shawn Michaels, Triple H, X-Pac, New Age Outlaws and Chyna all going in together as a group into the WWE Hall of Fame
Sting, I can actually see him being inducted but provided Sting would have to show up in WWE first
Lex Luger, with Luger I can actually see him being inducted because Luger was a huge part of WCW during the Monday Night Wars and not to mention Luger he was a co-winner of the 1994 Royal Rumble with Bret Hart, and Luger he was a part of the Four Horsemen back in the 1980s but in WCW he was not only United States Champion he was also a World Champion over there as well

February 28, 2013 from the Chesapeke Energy Arena in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma
The Smackdown intro video airs and the cameras go into the arena as Michael Cole and Josh Mathews welcome everybody to the show. Tonight, Randy Orton will go up against Cody Rhodes and Goldust in a handicap match. Also, Bryan Danielson will be speaking in regards to his decision to cash in his Money in the Bank briefcase against Dolph Ziggler at WrestleMania!
The theme music of Bryan Danielson hits and he comes out to a huge pop from the crowd. He pumps his fingers in the air, giving chants of 'Yes!' along with the WWE Universe. He comes down to the ring and takes a microphone from ringside, forming a huge smile across his face. "Does the WWE Universe want to see Dolph Ziggler lose the World Heavyweight Championship at WrestleMania!?" The crowd responds with a very resounding 'yes' and Bryan laughs. "I finally decided it was time to cash in my Money in the Bank and I decided it would be the best time to do it upon the grandest stage of them all... two years ago I won the Royal Rumble match and I went on to WrestleMania only to lose to John Cena for that same championship. Now, I may have ended up winning that title later on but it wasn't as great of a feeling as it was as bad of a feeling to lose at WrestleMania. Now, this year I plan on things being different when I face Dolph Ziggler. I plan on beating him up inside and outside of this ring, I plan on dropping him to the mat with a running knee and I plan on making him tap out to the Yes! Lock and I plan on being given that World Heavyweight Championship before climbing up to these turnbuckles," He moves over to the corner and climbs onto the second turnbuckle, "And shouting along with everybody in attendance - Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!" He pulls the microphone down and continues his chant, only for Chris Jericho's music to hit unexpectedly. Y2J emerges from the back and stays atop the ramp with a microphone of his own to the confusion of everybody.
Jericho laughs as he pulls his own microphone up, "That's real nice that you have a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship, Bryan. It really is... but even if you do walk out the winner nobody will ever be talking about that following WrestleMania. Nobody will remember it because all they will be talking about is how Chris Jericho defeated The Undertaker and ended his streak." The crowd boos loudly as Jericho raises an eyebrow, "Hell, look on the bright side, if you lose that match - and I am going to go ahead here and say you will - nobody will remember either, so you got that going for you." Bryan stares him down and asks what happened to the Chris Jericho a couple of weeks ago that was out here having fun. Jericho tells him that things can change within the blink of an eye and Danielson just gives a laugh. "Chris, come on, man! Everybody liked you better when you were out here having a good time win or lose and when you were actually one of the best in the world at what you do." Y2J snaps and says he is the best in the world at what he does and still is. Danielson shakes his head, "Okay, believe that if you want to Chris but I am just trying to understand. I mean, a couple of weeks ago you wouldn't of come out here and interrupted me and acted like a total tool." The fans give a cheer as Jericho looks around, clearly unappreciative of the insult. "But now that you are acting like one all the time just because you are so insecure about how good you really are, it shouldn't come as much of a surprise I guess." Jericho throws his microphone down and starts to go towards the back, but instead makes his way towards the ring. Before he can get there, however, Stephanie McMahon comes out from the back and tells him to hold up. "Chris, Bryan. If you two really want to go at it with each other, then why don't you save it for later on tonight? Heck, let's make it official! Tonight, Chris Jericho will go one-on-one with Bryan Danielson!" The WWE Universe pops as Stephanie smiles about her announcement before headed to the back, the two opponents for later on staring each other down.
The Prime Time Players defeat Kofi Kingston and Big E Langston via pinfall The bell rings as Langston starts things off with Young. They trade some shots back and forth before Big E gets the upper hand and drops Young with a powerslam. He gets a couple of minutes of momentum going. He brings Darren up onto his shoulders but he manages to slip free and make a tag to O'Neill. He charges into the ring and slams Big E to the mat with a couple of clotheslines. He makes frequent tags back and forth with Young and they work Langston some more until he nails a vicious big boot to O'Neill. He makes a tag to Kingston after he begs for it. Kofi hops into the ring and charges right up to O'Neill, hitting a series of kicks in the legs and upper body. He goes and takes Young off the apron but turns around to a spinebuster from Titus! He hooks both legs up for the three.
O'Neill gives a laugh as Young re-joins him in the ring, only for both men to be attacked from behind by Big E Langston! He drops them both to the mat and stomps them down before turning his attention to The Usos coming down to the ring. They stop right outside and help the Prime Time Players out of the ring. They stare down Kingston and Langston and begin to back up the ramp, only for the Kings of Wrestling to emerge from the back with their tag titles held in their hands. They raise them up to the three other teams with smiles across their faces.
We return to a video for the WWE Be A Star program, featuring the likes of John Cena, Kaitlyn, The Miz and Bryan Danielson meeting with younger kids within a community about not being a bully, but being a star.
AJ Lee with Beth Phoenix and Natalya defeats Layla with Diva's Champion Kaitlyn via submission The bell rings and AJ pounds on Layla early on. She gets a little too confident early, though, and Layla begins to fight back hard. She gets a couple of near falls off some hard shots and slams and gets frustrated. She throws AJ back onto her feet and drives her into the corner, she backs off and charges for a splash only for Lee to move out of the way. She lets Layla come back to her and hits a huge powerslam. AJ works her for a short while before locking in the Black Widow quickly, making her submit rather quickly.
Lee lets go of the hold as Kaitlyn comes into the ring and she gives her an evil laugh. Kaitlyn charges forward but AJ drops onto the mat and slips out of the ring beside Beth and Natalya. The three, rather evil, divas all join in each other in laughing at the distress on Kaitlyn and Layla, as this three-on-two scenario has made this rivalry start to heat up more and more as time goes on.
The cameras pan backstage to see Goldust and Cody Rhodes walking down a hallway, as they will be in action next against Randy Orton in a two on one handicap match. Rhodes stops himself and tells Goldust he'll be right there, and he turns around. Goldust heads off and Cody walks back towards his locker room, only to be attacked from behind by Orton! He stomps away at Cody against the wall and throws his head off the door to the locker room. Multiple referees come over and try and pull Orton away but he pulls at his head and runs right to Cody, punting him right in the side of the head! The crowd boos in the background as Goldust returns and tries to get at Orton, whom just gives him a smile and tells him to bring it in the ring.
Randy Orton defeats Goldust via pinfall The match begins with Goldust teeing off on his brother's rival and beating him down. He gets a couple of near falls and continues to lose it on Orton, throwing him face first into the corner and stomping away at him. He goes for the Shattered Dreams early, only for The Viper to hit an elbow to the face. He gets out and drops Goldust with a clothesline. He swings momentum his way and gets the upper hand, and goes for the RKO only to get shoved to the ropes and dropkicked right over. A commercial break interrupts, and upon the return Goldust continues the momentum in his favor. He hits a series of snap suplexes and goes for the stalling suplex, only for Orton to slip free and pound across the back and head. Randy works around the ring for a couple of minutes and starts to grow the familiar psychotic look across his face. He knocks Goldust to the mat with the Rope Hung DDT and slams his fists into the mat before nailing the RKO upon the rise to his feet by Goldust. Orton hooks both legs up quickly and gets the three count.
The crowd boos as Orton slowly rises back up onto his feet with the same sick look he had before the pin, only this time he is smiling. He backs off to the corner as the referee checks on Goldust. He turns to see Orton leaning in the corner licking his lips and charges over, only for Orton to throw the official to the mat! He stares him down before turning back to Goldust getting onto his hands and knees, and he charges full force and punts him right in the skull just as he had done to Cody earlier on! The crowd continues to boo as Orton leans across the ropes with the grin once again forming across his face. He turns back to Goldust and stands over him, laughing.
Returning, The Miz and Rob Van Dam are backstage talking to each other when Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins walks in. He gives a laugh and looks up and down at the two of them, "How are my two favorite defeats doing? Huh?" He continues to laugh and RVD holds Miz back from doing anything. "Hey, man, you may be a good talent and all but you can be a real jerk. I don't see why you got to go and attack guys after you already beat them. Not cool, dude." Rollins raises his eyebrows and asks Rob why he insists on attacking people in chairs when it has nothing to do with his business. RVD shrugs his shoulders and Miz talks before he can. "Why don't you face the both of us in the ring later tonight, Seth? Heck, you find yourself a partner while you're at it." RVD says he is down with that and heads off with Miz, Rollins giving a snarl - seeming not too keen on the idea.
Backstage, Matt Striker stands and he introduces his guest at this time to be Dean Ambrose. He thanks Dean for his time and acknowledges the fact that Ambrose has been making a push to be named the United States Champion. He asks why Ambrose thinks he should be given the title. "Why should I be named the United States Champion!? Maybe you should be asking me why I shouldn't be, Matt, because I am one of the most dangerous superstars there is to offer. I'm one bad, bad man, Matt. I debuted in this company under the tutelage of The Undertaker." He raises his eyebrows and spreads his arms out, "I became the Intercontinental Champion just months later and I was competing for the WWE Championship not much later. Why should I be the United States Champion!?" He begins to laugh hysterically before growing a very serious look across his face. "Go ahead and watch me win my match tonight and then think to yourself why I should be the United States Champion." He stares Striker down a bit and heads off.
Dean Ambrose defeats Sin Cara via pinfall The bell rings and Cara moves around the ring quickly, avoiding Ambrose. He gets a few kicks in and some flips, showing off his fancy luchador style. Ambrose blasts a vicious clothesline and marches around the ring. He beats Cara around a beat and tries to finish him off early with the the Headlock Drive, only for Cara to flip himself up and get out of it. He hits a hard DDT and springboards off the ropes, hitting a hard moonsault. He gets a near fall and brings Ambrose back to his feet. He gets some shots in and goes for a moonsault off the top rope, only for Ambrose to move out of the way. As Cara starts to get up, Dean kicks him in the stomach and proceeds to hit the Headlock Driver and get the pinfall.
Ambrose rises back up onto his feet and pumps both is fists into the air. The official holds his arm up and he grows a sick grin. He brings his fists down and motions for the United States Championship. As Ambrose exits the ring, the screen fuzzes up and a promo video begins to air with the same bearded men as seen in the promos as we've been seeing as of late. They talk about many of the same things as befoe and the main man gives a laugh into the camera towards the end, "Monsters are real... they lie within us. Our exterior, though, no.. no... our exterior is nothing, it is part of our mental fixture to believe it is... children, deny your fathers lies and your mothers false care!" He gives a long laugh before growing a very serious look across his face, "Follow... the buzzards..." He gives a deep laugh once again, lights a lantern and gives the warning of 'We're Coming' before blowing the lantern out.
Rob Van Dam and The Miz defeat Intercontinental Champion Seth Rollins and Ryback via pinfall The bell rings and The Miz starts things off with Ryback, whom Rollins chose as his partner. Ryback starts off with some powerful offense early on and rocks Miz a bit. He gets a little cocky, though, and Miz manages to send him to the mat with a DDT. He makes the tag to RVD and he comes in, throwing punches and kicks to the sides and head of Ryback. He knocks him to the mat with a Spinning Wheel Kick but misses the Rolling Thunder. Ryback makes the tag to Rollins and he charges in, getting some momentum going only to be brought to a sudden hault with RVD hitting a kick to the face. He makes the tag to Miz and he comes in, working the Intercontinental Champion a bit before being blasted with a superkick. Rollins makes a tag to Ryback and he storms in, only to be tripped into the corner. Miz makes a tag to RVD and hits the Skull Crushing Finale. He swings himself back onto his feet and keeps Rollins back as RVD hits the Five Star Frog Splash and gets the pinfall on Ryback.
The crowd cheers as RVD hops onto his feet, giving a high five to Miz. They invite Rollins to come into the ring but he thinks better of it and hops down from the apron, taking his championship belt. He walks around the ring and shakes his head, headed up the ramp. Miz and RVD each climb to a corner and raise their arms up in celebration to the crowd.
Returning, Josh Mathews and Michael Cole discuss at ringside how Edge was announced as a Hall of Famer last week on Raw, and this past Monday the second inductee was announced: Bob Backlund. A promo video airs over the course of Backlund's career and his time as WWE Champion, including on one occasion for over five years. The video also shows his later years of his career going crazy and spending time known as "Mr. Bucklund". He will be inducted by friend Maria Menounos.
The cameras head backstage to Matt Striker once again, and he introduces his guest to be World Heavyweight Champion, Dolph Ziggler. He thanks him for his time and asks about his thoughts on Bryan Danielson cashing in his briefcase on him at WrestleMania. "My thoughts? My thoughts are simple, Matt. My thoughts are that this is a stupid move. Holding that briefcase you can cash in any time you please and Bryan decides he is going to tell me ahead of time? Now, I would beat him no matter what the circumstances are but the fact of the matter is, if you give me any time to prepare myself even more, your chances of even coming close to beating me go down, down, down." He gives a laugh, "Actually, I'm pretty sure Bryan is getting pretty close to zero percent. Maybe I'll go out there and see him lose his match to Chris Jericho tonight, too." He continues to laugh and heads off, with the main event coming up next.
Returning, Dolph Ziggler's music hits and the World Heavyweight Champion comes out from the back to the boos of the crowd. He brings himself down and around the ring and joins Josh Mathews and Michael Cole at ringside for the main event.
Bryan Danielson defeats Chris Jericho via disqualification The bell rings and the duo lock up with each other, Jericho tripping Bryan to the mat and going for the Walls of Jericho. Danielson rolls him up in reversal and gets a two count. Both men get back up and Jericho hits a huge forearm to the face. He takes control of the match for a couple of minutes and works Bryan all around the ring. As he goes off the ropes for a bulldog, however, Danielson pulls away and shoves Jericho right through the ropes and onto the floor in front of the announce table. A commercial break interrupts. Returning, Jericho is back in control and keeps working away at the legs and head of Bryan. He sends him to the mat with a hard suplex and follows it up with the Lionsault, only to get a count of two on the pin attempt. Jericho gets frustrated and starts to work around the ring some more, and he prepares for the Walls of Jericho only for Bryan to push him back against the corner. He gets back onto his feet, ducks a clothesline and nails the Running Knee! He quickly drops him to the mat and locks in the Yes! Lock. The crowd starts to nuts and chants 'Yes!' as the hold stays locked in. As Jericho begins to struggle a bit, however, Ziggler slides into the ring and drops down on Danielson with his World Heavyweight Championship belt, forcing the referee to call for the bell.
The crowd boos loudly as Ziggler starts to beat down on Bryan with fists to the head. He gets back onto his feet and pulls his shirt off, giving a loud yell. He pulls his title belt back up and motions for Danielson to get back on his feet. He does, and Ziggler blasts him right in the face with the title! The Oklahoma City crowd continues to boo as Dolph starts to laugh. He drags Bryan up once again and throws his title in his face and then to the mat before dropping his rival on it with the Zig Zag. Dolph rises back onto his feet once again and stands over Danielson with a smile. He pulls his title back up and raises it high over his head.
The cameras turn backstage to Chris Jericho as he is walking down the halls, holding onto his chin that is obviously still hurting from the match. As he heads towards a door and tries to open it, it doesn't move. He gets frustrated and pounds his fist and the lights in the hallway start to flicker. Jericho starts to yell out for somebody to open the door and it creaks open slowly. A shallow light emerges inside the room, with a shrine of WrestleMania being shown, with pictures of The Undertaker being victorious all around. Jericho starts to get more and more frustrated as time goes on and he slams his fist into the door before storming off, the shrine clearly getting into the head of Y2J as the mind games have begun by the Dead Man. Smackdown comes to a conclusion.

Smackdown Review
Danielson coming out to open up Smackdown was great and he is talking about how he is going to cash in his briefcase at WrestleMania 29 cashing in on Ziggler telling Ziggler ahead of time when he is going to cash in, I still say it is a stupid move a really stupid one that is going to blow up in his face because watch Danielson will be the first man to win Money in the Bank and then go on to cash in and lose because most Money in the Bank Ladder Match winners when they cash in they seize the moment by doing so when the champion is vulnerable and weak and he chooses to do the honorable thing the honorable cash-in well good luck with that because it is bound to backfire but I was glad that Jericho interrupted Danielson, not what I would have expected but I loved it anyway and Danielson already getting in Jericho's head and Jericho about to do something about it until Commissioner Stephanie McMahon comes out and makes the main event for tonight making it Jericho vs Danielson, this should be a great one
Prime Time Players beating Kofi Kingston & Big E. now that I was definitely expecting but after the match I didn't anticipate the post-match attack but I get why you did it, but then the Usos coming out to make the save only for the WWE Tag Team Champions Kings of Wrestling to come out and hold the titles showing them off to their competition what a statement but at the same time can Cesaro and Ohno beat those 3 teams respectively and all in the same match? If they can do that then maybe just maybe they will earn more respect
AJ beating Layla, it seems AJ has been on a roll ever since coming back and now that she has aligned herself with Beth Phoenix and Natalya, it makes me wonder if they will become a Trio of Doom in the Divas division? Either way Kaitlyn is not safe and neither is Layla or any other WWE Diva for that matter but even more so I wonder if Kaitlyn's title reign will soon be coming to an end
Randy Orton is as cold as ice the Viper I know and love the Viper I know he could be and he is the Viper of old, the remorseless, emotionless, psychotic, venomous Viper that kicks people in the skull punting them in the skull and I am glad that he punted Cody Rhodes maybe that will put Cody Rhodes on the shelf for a while and if it does then it puts Orton even more over as a heel and it puts him even more over as the most dangerous man in that locker room especially so if he can end careers at the blink of an eye...I wonder if that is the last time we will see Cody for quite some time and Goldust wanting Orton...I wonder if Goldust will endure the same fate?
Orton beating Goldust, I knew it would happen but in all honesty it was a great match but Orton punting Goldust...this is great...Orton punts both Rhodes Brothers in one night...I am glad that he is using the Punt Kick again and that more importantly he took out both Rhodes Brothers single-handedly, it makes me wonder just who is next in line to be punted in the skull?
RVD/Rollins/Miz Triple Threat at WrestleMania 29, how much you wanna bet that that is what will happen?
Dean Ambrose if anything I can see him becoming WWE United States Champion and if and when he does I hope he ends up having a lengthy reign with the title and why? Because then maybe that way Ambrose can restore some dignity and credibility to the title making it mean something again
Ambrose beating Sin Cara just proves my point that Ambrose is not only ready for the WWE United States Championship but more importantly that he doesn't belong in the mid-card but that he belongs in the main event but at the same time with Sin Cara, I really hope you build up Sin Cara to become the new masked lucha libre superhero of the WWE by having him take over Rey's spot because it is inevitable that Rey is going to retire at some point and if and when he does then Sin Cara should become the next Rey Mysterio of the WWE
The Wyatts are coming and these promos keep showing up, only a matter of time before they show up and when they do I can see them making an impact on each and every superstar in the WWE
RVD & Miz beating Rollins & Ryback I admit I loved the match but at the same time I do wonder if you are building towards a Fatal 4-Way for the WWE Intercontinental Championship between RVD, Miz, Rollins and Ryback? If that is the case then Rollins would be in serious danger of losing his title but in all fairness Rollins is on the rise whereas RVD, Miz and even Ryback are not
Love Ziggler's backstage interview and everything he was saying was 100 percent truth because Danielson is an idiot especially because he actually lets the champion know when he is going to cash in giving the champion time to prepare when he could have just cashed in when the champion was vulnerable and weak...Danielson is not using his brain and I hope Ziggler beats him at Mania because it will just prove how much of a loser Danielson really is
Danielson vs Jericho I can actually see that as a future WrestleMania or even as a future SummerSlam match because this main event was actually a great match back and forth and really could have gone either way until Ziggler had to get involved and when he did leaving Danielson laying, direct message being sent to Danielson, that he can't win and deep down Danielson knows it, Ziggler has his number
But Undertaker's mind games I just love the mind games being played on Jericho, I hope Undertaker plays more of his mind games really getting inside Jericho's head because Jericho is no different than the 19 other men who have tried to end the streak but have failed doing so and by Taker playing mind games with Jericho what a way to psych him out

great segment to set up Danielson vs Jericho on SMACKDOWN. Both these men have big matches at WrestleMania and they obviously have nothing to lose, Another Tag Team Bedlem with Kingston and Big E, The Prime-Time Players, Kings of Wrestling and the Usos, there's got to be a match between the both of them at WrestleMania like I keep saying, great win for the psychotic AJ over Layla, her, Beth and Natalya will be one dangerous group, hopefully Kaitlyn and Layla will have someone to face off against these three at WrestleMania, nice way for Orton to lay out Cody backstage, and take out Goldust in the ring, This is the Orton of Old punting people in the head without any excuses, RVD and Miz vs Rollins and a partner of his choosing that should be interesting, Ambrose with a defeat over SinCara, he's on the push hopefully to become United States Champion soon, The Wyatt Family are on their way here, ohhh no you better run in fear, Ryback as Rollins's partner very interesting but great win for RVD and Miz, Ziggler has a lot of confidence in beating Bryan at WrestleMania but I don't know if it's going to be enough, solid main event match between Daniel Bryan and Chris Jericho, very awesome between the two, I know you call him Danielson in your diary, but i'm going to call him Daniel Bryan if that's okay with you, Bryan has the match won then Ziggler attacks Bryan and lays him out with the World Heavyweight Title and hits him with the zig-zag, then suddenly after Jericho leaves to go backstage, he encounters a freaky situation, possibly the mind games of The Undertaker before WrestleMania, we've seen people come in and say they're going to beat The Undertaker at WrestleMania, but who knows, but that was a strange way to end SMACKDOWN with the door creaking open and all of the pictures The Undertaker's beaten in a shrine, oooh, very creepy but nonetheless, great show, I expect RAW to be the same as well in your next booking,

Well I can't wait until RAW and why because then we are 1 more month away from WrestleMania 29 but also we are in March 2013 now so with that said I can't wait until RAW because of Brock Lesnar the Beast Incarnate because I am sure he will be in attendance and if so then I wonder if The Rock will also be in attendance but also I wonder if the Wyatt Family will finally show up but I wonder if CM Punk and WWE Champion John Cena's paths will cross? But more importantly I wonder if The Undertaker or Chris Jericho will be in attendance? Or if the World Heavyweight Champion Dolph Ziggler or Bryan Danielson will be in attendance?

LATEST WWE NEWS AND RUMORS by A.J. Mathews 3/4/13
Mr. Kennedy in February 2012, talking about his Royal Rumble win. (Credit to wwe.com)
Mr. Kennedy has been off television since losing the World Heavyweight Championship at The Great American Bash last July. Kennedy had signed a two year deal with the company the previous year with his own option of the second year. With his disappearance, it is being reported he did not take the second year option up. However, according to multiple reports, he does have some interest in coming back once again soon. Kennedy was pushed hard upon his return (including a Royal Rumble win) and seemed to gain back the respect of many superstars in the locker room, but with his decision to depart after being put right into the main event scene may cause some uneasiness between him and his fellow competitors.

There are quite a few superstars out of action right now aside from Kennedy. Here is an update on inactive superstars:
- Rey Mysterio has a history of nagging injuries to his knees and has been taking time off since the Royal Rumble event. He is anticipating a return relatively soon, as he hopes to avoid having surgery once again. - John Morrison has been out of action since the end of last year, dealing with pain in his right hip. Doctors advised him to take time off, and he didn't even get a chance to appear in the Royal Rumble. He could be back after WrestleMania, but he hopes to be there at the very least. - Alberto Del Rio is in rehab with his significant knee injury and seems to be on pace to returning on schedule, which would be sometime during the summer. Del Rio was asked about his reaction when he learned the news, and he said he was most upset about missing WrestleMania, especially after being in the World Heavyweight Championship match just two years ago against Randy Orton. - Ezekiel Jackson has been out of action since last September due to a shoulder injury, and may end up being faced with the possibility of being released after WrestleMania. Unfortunately, Jackson has been unable to stay healthy enough to become relevant. - Christian, as we reported just a few days ago, had a small, but risky injury to his knee. A minor surgery was successfully performed over the weekend and he should be ready to return in late April, early May.
WrestleMania XXX logo. (Credit to wwe.com)
The location for WrestleMania XXX has been kept secret for quite some time now with an official announcement expected soon, but locations are starting to become narrowed down between:
- Madison Square Garden in New York, New York. - Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana. - CenturyLink Field in Seattle, Washington. - Wembley Stadium in London, England.
According to multiple reports, the WWE would be thrilled at the opportunity to host WrestleMania at Wembley Stadium, but are not too keen on having their biggest show being in a very, very different timezone. That has always seemed to be the major issue, and the only way things could work out for the states is if the show started near eleven or midnight in England or to be taped. Neither of these, however, is favorable or preferred.
Madison Square Garden would make some sense logic wise, with WrestleMania 1, 10 and 20 all were hosted there. With MetLife Stadium hosting this year's event and MSG's renovations, however, it seems very unlikely that it will happen.
That leaves the Mercedes-Benz Superdome and CenturyLink field. The WWE is already taking a risk by going to MetLife and the possibility of it being cold, but has been taking many precautions in order to keep it relatively warm, which means CenturyLink field in Seattle may be possible. The WWE loves the idea of going there with how crazy the crowds have been for the Seattle Seahawks football team this past year, especially with their success. With Seattle returning to form as a big sports town and the loudness the fans possess, WWE believes they can add in a gimmick of trying to break the decibel records. However, New Orleans has had a desire to host WrestleMania for a while as they never have, and with the city being successful following Hurricane Katrina in many aspects and being domed, there may be an advantage for the home of the Saints.

I really hope Kennedy does come back again and if and when he does I hope that when he comes back he ends up right back in the main event and I could see that if he does come back
Rey Mysterio I can see him making his return either at SummerSlam or after SummerSlam
If Morrison is at WrestleMania 29 then I can see him making his return the night after WrestleMania 29
Del Rio I can see him making his return at Money in the Bank in July since he is injured right now but when Del Rio comes back, will he get that babyface reaction?
If Zeke is gone then it doesn't really faze me at all but with Christian making his return I hope Christian makes it either at WrestleMania or at Extreme Rules
I hope Seattle gets WrestleMania 30, with Seattle CenturyLink Field getting WrestleMania 30, LET'S CAMPAIGN!!!!!!!!! WRESTLEMANIA 30 IN SEATTLE!!!!!!!!!
