-Christian over Archer is a given, but wow what a big match for him! -Abraham Washington as a wrestler, perhaps? Could be interesting. - Hm, I dont think Dreamer would need help against anyone, and that he wouldnt struggle against Burchill. - Ryder with the Dudebusters is cool, but dont give him the IWC fanboy push. - Nice to see Zeke pushed around this time, but if I'm not mistaken, he wasn't using the Torture Rack at this time.

ECW: Nice, was waiting to reply to this one. Yawn, Christian over easily against the man who once was a threat, Archer. I don't really see you doing anything with him and that's fine. Burchill back on ECW is where he belongs to be built. Dreamer match should be awesome. Hm, what will Washington do now? WOW! Dreamer going over? Even if its with help, I love it. Simple but feud building segment between Dreamer & Jackson. Ryder & The Dudebusters?! This diary is amazing already. Having Ryder go over is expected after his promo, but still good. No surprise for a Zeke win, but I like the face save at the end. Another good show from you, keep it up my friend.

FRIDAY, DECEMBER 25 | MYNETWORKTV | 8/7 CTSmackdown kicks off with it's usual video package and pyrotechnics display, before the commentary team of Matt Striker and Todd Grisham welcome the fans to this exciting Christmas Day edition of Friday Night Smackdown, and wish them a happy holiday! They then run down tonight's card, in which we'll see DX make a rare Smackdown appearance to defend the Unified Tag Team Championships, and Drew McIntyre defend his Intercontinental Championship against John Morrison in the former champion's rematch; but first, we hear from new #1 Contender to the World Heavyweight Championship, Batista, ahead of his Last Man Standing bout with The Undertaker next week! After making his way out to the ring, Batista grabbed a microphone and began to speak. He starts by saying after next week, the screwjob of two weeks prior at WWE:TLC will be forgotten, as will The Undertaker's reign at the top of the WWE as World Heavyweight Champion, as the darkness will be rolled back by a spotlight that'll be on Smackdown's true star, 'The Animal' Batista! Continuing on, Batista says that he's took out that sycophantic, mask shilling, fake facade of a Superstar, Rey Mysterio, and after next week, after he beats The Undertaker so bad he can't stand up and takes the World Heavyweight Championship, everyone will realise that the physical appearances of two men with no real star quality will be realised, and no longer seen as disractions from the true star of Smackdown who will shine as bright as he always has, and everyone will take note, that Batista is back on top! At this point, Teddy Long interrupts, and says that as much as he was enjoying hearing Batista go on and on about how much of a star he is, it's time for him to get into some action tonight! Long then introduces his opponent for tonight: The Great Khali! Khali makes his way out to the ring as Smackdown heads to a break, the commentators hyping this match up after the break! Commercial BreakBatista def. The Great Khali (w/ Ranjin Singh)Batista made a point of proving his dominance at the expense of Khali here, nailing him with a Spinebuster to end the bout.After the contest, Batista beat down Khali brutally with a steel chair, before locking him a new submission maneuver which Matt Striker dubbed the ' Batista Bite', with the Punjabi Titan unable to escape despite his immense strength, officials having to pull Batista off! After the bell, the arena lights flash, confusing a pleased with himself Batista, before GONG's begin to sound, with their being ten in total. The Undertaker's voice then sounds over the arena, warning Batista that next week he will rest in peace! Camera's then went backstage, where R-Truth was being interviewed by Josh Matthews about closing the book on his rivalry with CM Punk. Truth says his aim tonight is to win, and knock some sense into Punk and knock out his 'Straight Edge crap'! The camera then fades out, as adverts for several popular WWE products play, including the 2010 edition of SmackDown vs. RAW, and the soon to be released Mattel action figures, as Smackdown heads to a break. Commercial BreakBeth Phoenix and Mickie James def. Layla and Womens Champion Michelle McCoolA good tag team match here, Phoenix seemingly on the side of Mickie for the time being. Mickie finished the match with a Long Kiss Goodnight on Layla.Backstage, Vickie Guerrero is seen in a locker room, staring at a man off camera, telling him he looks as much of a superstar as ever. Then the man walks on camera, and is revealed as Dolph Ziggler! Just then Eric Escobar walks in, and warns Dolph that he's done him a huge favour, getting rid of Vickie for him, but Vickie slaps Escobar, infuriating him, but Ziggler then hits him as well, laying into him with boots to the ribs and blows to the head, before dropping the contents of a trash can on him, and throwing his hair slick at him, as a break comes in, and the commentators hype the Intercontinental Championship bout after the break. Commercial BreakDrew McIntyre def. John Morrison to retain the Intercontinental ChampionshipJohn Morrison looked to be in control, but a tug on the belt and a faceplant into the ropes left him wide open to be nailed with the Scot Drop and a subsequent pin.Commercial BreakBackstage, John Morrison is seen throwing a fit, kicking the lockers in the locker room and tipping up a table full of water bottles. Teddy Long walks, imploring Morrison to calm down, telling him that he saw what Drew did, and he would be willing to grant him another chance at the title, but at this point Mr. McMahon walks in, and says all he saw was Morrison become yet another victim of the 'Chosen One' Drew McIntyre, but obviously Long didn't see it that way, and that's why he's on 'probation'. He then walks out, as Morrison looks confused at McMahon mentioning probation, the action then returning to the ring. Chris Jericho def. Matt HardyHardy sent out this challenge via WWE.COM earlier in the week, but couldn't back it up as he fell victim to the Codebreaker. Commercial BreakCM Punk (w/ Luke Gallows) def. R-TruthPunk ducked an attempt at the Lie Detector from Truth and nailed the Go To Sleep for the win.Punk celebrates the win in the ring with Gallows, calling out he is 'Straight Edge Superstar of the Year', as the camera's go backstage to Teddy Long's office, where a tired looking Chris Jericho walks in. He says that he's tired of being treat like some second rate scrub by the Guest Host's on RAW, but even more so by Teddy Long, and demands a tag team title shot with The Big Show as his partner. Long says he'll think about it, but Jericho tells him not to forget that he's on probation, before walking out, as a don't try this at home package comes in featuring Kofi Kingston. Commercial BreakWhen SmackDown! returns from the break, there is a man dressed as Santa, just with a long brown beard. He starts to talk, saying that Santa likes to bring a lot of things, but this year, all he's going to bring is pain. Pain to all the out of shape, weak bodied saps in the WWE Universe, because they don't deserve anything better than to be crash test dummies for the standard of pain that someone as well educated in the human body as he is. At this, the theme of Kane plays, and he makes his way out to the ring, the commentators hyping that Kane is another man who likes inflicting pain, and that includes on Santa! Kane def. Santa ClausDuring the match, the already obvious Mike Know was revealed to be Santa, before being finished with a chokeslam.As Kane laughs at the pain he's inflicted on Knox, the commentators put over the Unified Tag Team Championship match with visiting champions DX after the break! Commercial BreakD-Generation X (w/ Hornswoggle) def. The Hart Dynasty (w/ Natalya) to retain the Unified Tag Team Championships.DX used the Sweet Chin Music into a Pedigree combination on David Hart Smith to successfully retain their gold here on Christmas DayAfter the contest as DX are celebrating the victory, Theodore Long makes his way out with Chris Jericho, holding an envelope in his hand. He opens the envelope and reads a statement, stating that on the January 4th edition of Monday Night RAW, by orders of Mr. McMahon, DX will defend their Unified WWE World Tag Team Championships against Chris Jericho and The Big Show one more time! The crowd boo's at Jericho getting his Christmas wish, as the camera's fade out. WWE2009.

I like the opener with Batista going over. For like three paragraphs or whatever, I’m already curious about the LMS match. Please make Drew a respectable heel and a future World Champion, I’ve always liked him. I’m sure Jericho/Hardy and Punk/Truth would be quality bouts. This show seems to be full of quality wrestling which is fabulous. I expect DX lose the titles to Show/Jericho, though I hope you get some better tag teams so those four guys can be singles wrestlers. Overall, a quality show full of quality wrestling.

Batista earning the win is great. I like the new submission hold. It would be pretty coll if no one could get out of it and really build it up nicely. The face Divas winning is fine. I feel like the Diva's division really needs to be spiced up a bit. Happy to see McIntyre retain. Hopefully, he gets a good long reign as champ. Jericho beating Hardy is fine, though I would've preferred to see Hardy get the win. It would be great if Hardy would move up and challenge for the title. Not happy about Punk winning, although I knew he would. Was hoping to see Santa Knox win, though a Kane win was evident. Glad DX won. Hart Dynasty facing DX is good for their careers. I would think that DX beats Jericho & Show on Raw, but you never know.
Overall, a good show. This is a really good time period to be doing it. I would like to see McIntyre become a huge threat for the World Title. I'm gonna keep reading, so keep it posted.

WWE SmackDown: Friday 25th December 2009...Batista in the ring to kick off the show is pretty nice, just preparing his match with the Undertaker next week on this programme for the World Heavyweight Championship. I feel you could have done the opening contest without the commercial break. Batista beating Great Khali is an eventful opening contest, liked Batista dominating Khali, and debuting the Batista Bite here. That move was good, debuted too late when Batista was building for his last match. Liked the detail for promoting the Mattel figures and SmackDown vs RAW 2010. Beth Phoenix and Mickie James beating Laycool was nice, good rehype for Mickie's character against the bullys, Michelle McCool and Layla. Drew McIntyre beating John Morrison was likely as McIntyre has only been the WWE Intercontinental Champion for over a week nearly two. Morrison being angry is definitely not his character. Odd segment, didn't see why Mr McMahon was there and how it turned into an angle based on Theodore Long and McMahon. Not too pleased with another Morrison and McIntyre match. Have McIntyre win the next one cleanly, perhaps with help from someone else (Morrison's next rival). Also, McIntyre started calling the Scot Drop the 'Future Shock DDT' around this time. Chris Jericho and Matt Hardy had a decent match, liked Hardy calling Jericho out via WWE.com, but Jericho with the win was for the best. CM Punk finally beating R-Truth is good, solid match here, should have gone on after the Intercontinental title match, as a feud that has ran for a month or two now. I still think Matt should have been involved here to oppose Luke Gallows and even the odds. Mike Knox as Santa Claus? Odd. Kane beating Knox is obvious. Wish Knox would be more relevant. And lastly, glad that DX beat the Hart Dynasty to retain the WWE Unified Tag Team Championships, Jerishow against DX at the January 4th RAW should be good, but I see it being another successful title defence by DX if anything. End their feud then. A pretty solid episode overall.

Smackdown was an interesting show, the Batista promo was really good, and really put over the upcoming match with Taker. I wish you actually mentioned what move the Batista Bite is, not just that it's a submission though. Good dominant win over Khali. The Escobar/Ziggler stuff is kind of meh to me, not going to lie, but the Drew/JoMo was good, hopefully he gets his rematch. Santa Knox ftw! DX winning was pretty obvious, but still a solid main event.

MONDAY, DECEMBER 28 | USA NETWORK | 9/8 CTRAW opens with a video package highlighting the two victories that WWE Champion Sheamus holds over John Cena, focusing on how both times, Cena was left down with the Celtic Warrior's foot on his chest. Then, the usual opening video and fireworks display open the evening's proceedings, Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler hyping up a United States Championship bout between Santino Marella and Champion The Miz, before welcoming the fans to another exciting edition of Monday Night RAW! Sheamus then makes his way out to his strongest reaction yet, holding up his WWE Championship for all to see, yelling into the camera that he's the 'real deal'. He grabs a microphone, and again subjects the WWE Universe to watching the down fall of John Cena last week on RAW, this time with (biased) commentary from the Celtic Warrior, putting over how he gave Cena two Brogue Kicks for good measure before pinning him following the Celtic Cross. He says that the WWE needs to realise he's the real deal, the new face of Monday night's, that the WWE's new force is the Celtic Warrior, and the 'fiery red hand of Ireland' is the one that is holding onto the WWE Championship! At this, D-Generation X make their way out to the ring, getting a great pop from the WWE Universe. They climb in the ring, and after ribbing the WWE Champion with jokes about his pale skin, ginger hair, and Irish heritage, they tell him that if he's such a great force on Monday nights, and the 'real deal', he won't mind battling one half of DX in tonight's main event! Sheamus laughs at DX, and says that they may think they're something to be afraid of, but they're not, and he's more than willing to take both of them on! With this, Sheamus smashes Triple H in the face with the WWE Championship, taking him down, but Shawn Michaels catches Sheamus with Sweet Chin Music; leveling the Celtic Warrior with the WWE Universe's favourite song for the first time! Michaels then assists Triple H out of the ring, the two heading backstage smiling, Sheamus holding his jaw and his WWE Championship as the first commercial break comes in! Commercial BreakAfter the break, John Cena is seen arriving at the arena, looking notably less perky than he usually is; the commentators noting that he may be out of the WWE Championship hunt, but is tonight going to try and address the situation by attempting to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble match tonight! We then see backstage the RAW Guest Host Timbaland, flanked by the Bella Twins. He is walking down a hallway when he bumps into the WWE Champion Sheamus, telling him that while he knows he fights the good fight, he's not going to let him wrestle a handicap match tonight, and so he needs to find a partner for tonight's main event or the night will not go ahead! Sheamus is outraged, rand storms off as we go to the opening contest for the evening. 1) Mark Henry def. Chavo Guerrero in a Royal Rumble Qualifying Match.Henry absolutely dominated Guerrero here in this Royal Rumble qualifying match, leaving him unquestionably down and out following the World's Strongest Slam.Commercial BreakRAW returns with a hype package for the coming edition of Friday Night SmackDown!, when Batista will challenge The Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship in a Last Man Standing match! Then, Josh Matthews is seen standing by the interview area with all three members of The Legacy. Matthews asks him how he feels about he and Kofi Kingston both owning a one on one victory over each other, to which Orton replies Kofi is just a fluke, a flash in the pan, and will never be WWE Champion like he dreams of being. Just then, Timbaland walks past, saying to Orton that if that's the case, he won't mind facing him in a match up for a chance to face WWE Champion Sheamus at the Royal Rumble in a WWE Championship! Orton smiles, saying he looks forward to that match as its going to be the start of another Age of Orton on Monday Nights. Timbaland smiles, saying he likes confidence, before telling them all to go and get ready for their match tonight, against Kofi Kingston and The Colons! 2) Maryse def. Kelly KellyDivas Champion Melina was out on commentary for this match, saying that she was 'scouting opponents'. Maryse came out on top here following the French Kiss.Maryse motioned over to Melina that she had her eye on the Divas Championship, as the commentators informed the viewers at home that after the break, The Miz would be defending his United States Championship against Santino Marella! Commercial Break3) Santino Marella def. The Miz to WIN the United States Championship.In an outcome nobody would've predicted, Santino was able to avoid Miz's dangerous swinging corner clothesline as it looked like Miz was heading towards a successful defense, and maneuver himself into a Victory Roll to get the shocking three!Santino rolled out of the ring, the referee handing him the United States Championship which he kissed and raised up, placing it around his waist before making his trumpet motion, The Miz just beating the canvas of the ring in utter anger and disbelief at the loss he had suffered and for his United States Championship at that! Then, John Cena was seen heading to the ring, the commentators putting over that he'll be in a Royal Rumble qualifying match next! Commercial Break4) John Cena def. Chris Masters in a Royal Rumble Qualifying Match.Cena came out of the gate on absolute fire tonight, and not even the strength of "The Masterpiece" could stop him tonight, as an Attitude Adjustment ending up being the move that made Cena the second man to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble match.Cena looked pleased with taking the win, and as he head up the ramp, pointed to the minitron advertising when the Royal Rumble is, saying that he'd the 2010 Royal Rumble winner! Then, Kofi Kingston and The Colons were seen joking as they walked down a hallway, the three superstars teaming tonight against The Legacy, next! Commercial Break5) Kofi Kingston and The Colons def. The Legacy in a Six Man Tag Team match.An action packed six man tag team match that showed that Kofi Kingston is at the top of his game, and The Colons are getting back to it to, while The Legacy is struggling to function at the moment. Kofi took the win for his side following Trouble in Paradise.Commercial BreakBackstage, Randy Orton is seen throwing a fit in the locker room as Cody Rhodes holds an icepack to his head, and Ted DiBiase is attempting to calm down his mentor. Orton says he's been watching the two of them closely in the last few weeks, and says that he's not been impressed by them. They haven't had his back, and they haven't been winning matches either, so next week its make or break for The Legacy, as Orton says he will arrange for them to be placed in matches to see if his mentoring has helped them become winners, matches they must win to remain under his tutelage in The Legacy! Rhodes says that he's got no place to be talking about winners, since he's lost just as much as they have recently, to which Orton replies that next week, there's no doubt that he'll be a winner, and tells them to make sure that he has no reason to doubt them as apprentices, before heading out of the locker room. As the cameras return to ringside, the theme of the WWE Chairman Mr. McMahon plays, and the owner of the WWE makes his way out to the ring. He says last week, he announced the guest host for the next edition of Monday Night RAW would be Bret 'The Hitman' Hart, and he says that this week, he wants to explain why. He says that it's been twelve years since Bret Hart last stood in the ring, and since then he's been through a hell of a lot - he's had his in ring career ended by a dangerous concussion, suffered a stroke and had to battle to learn to walk again, and suffered a number of personal tragedies. McMahon says that he wants Bret to come back, because he deserves to speak to the people that have been like his second family, the WWE Universe, and that he personally wants to speak to Bret about those dark events that took place twelve years ago. He finishes by saying that he wants all the WWE Universe to tune in next week, and support Bret 'The Hitman' Hart on his return home to the WWE! The crowd in attendance pops, as a 'Don't Try This At Home' plays for viewers at home, before the show heads to a final break! Commercial Break6) WWE Champion Sheamus and The Big Show def. Unified Tag Team Champions D-Generation X in a non title match.The Unified Tag Team Champions battled hard, but in the end the decider was Big Show's partner Chris Jericho, who made an appearance at the close of the bout, distracting Shawn Michaels and setting him up for the Knockout Punch, which was followed up by a Brogue Kick from WWE Champion Sheamus for the victory. Sheamus celebrated the victory, raising up his WWE Championship as Triple H pulled his partner Shawn Michaels out of the ring and onto his feet, before raising up his Unified Tag Team Championships for Jericho and The Big Show to see, Jericho shouting that he and Show would be the champions once more next week, the two staring down DX as Sheamus looked on in the background. As the live feed in the arena faded out, a video package played hyping up next week's guest host, Bret 'The Hitman' Hart, putting over that next week he has been invited to talk personally with one of the perpetrators of the Montreal Screwjob, Vince McMahon, live next week on Monday Night RAW! WWE2009.

WWE RAW: Monday 28th December 2009...On the edge of 2010, good stuff. Sheamus' promo was pretty good, but DX probably killed his dominant factor. Sheamus facing DX tonight should be good. I'm looking forward to finding out who he's teaming with. Mark Henry was obviously going to qualify for the Royal Rumble against Chavo Guerrero. Weak opening contest for RAW though. SmackDown sounds intense. Maryse beating Kelly Kelly is for the better. To me, Maryse is this generation's Trish Stratus. Keep a hold of her. Santino Marella beating the Miz? What? No. That's horrible. Hopefully Miz does better things than this. John Cena was obviously going to beat Chris Masters: you should try and make these qualifying matches more less predictable. Next, six man tag team action; good match, but the Legacy look like sh*t. They need to win. I know they're nearing dissension, but they do need some Ws as well. This should have been earlier in the show, like first hour main event. Santino and Miz should have opened. Mark and Chavo's match was essentially Superstars quality. Mr McMahon's promo was solid, looking so forward to Bret Hart's return next week and what you do with it. Sheamus replacing Chris Jericho to take on DX with the Big Show is genius booking. Very dominant team, too. Overall, a very solid episode, but nothing special to mark the end of the RAW season in 2009 like SmackDown did.

TUESDAY, DECEMBER 29 | SYFY | 9/8 CTECW begins with the usual opening video and a huge pyrotechnics display, followed by the commentary team of Byron Saxton and Josh Matthews welcoming the WWE Universe to another exciting edition of ECW, where tonight we'll see William Regal lace up the boots to take on his former rival, ECW Champion Christian, in the main event! Then, the theme of Ezekiel Jackson then plays, and he makes his way to the ring accompanied by William Regal. Regal grabs a microphone and once in the ring puts over Jackson, saying never before in the history of ECW has there been a competitor that's been half the physical specimen that Jackson is. The raw strength and power possesed by this superstar is unmatched by any past or present ECW Superstar. Regal continues, saying that when this is combined with the intelligence and guidance of himself, the future is coated in platinum for Ezekiel Jackson. Then, Tommy Dreamer makes his way out, and says that he's a Superstar from ECW's past, living in ECW's present, and he doesn't like what he is seeing and hearing from Jackson! Jackson laughs, and Regal challenges Dreamer to do something about it if he dares! Dreamer says he's glad Regal said that, and heads backstage, before wheeling out a trolley full of weapons and saying he's going to stop Ezekiel in his tracks in the only way he knows; the extreme way, and he's going to do it right now! 1) Ezekiel Jackson (w/ William Regal) def. Tommy Dreamer in an Extreme Rules Match.Tommy Dreamer went out waged absolute war on Jackson here tonight, and tried his very best to keep ECW's Goliath down. However, the younger and much stronger Jackson proved to be too much for the two time ECW Champion Dreamer to handle, and the Book of Ezekiel through a table spelt the end in this one.Regal climbed in the ring and raised the hand of Jackson, as the camera cut to ECW Champion Christian stood watching a monitor backstage, paying close attention to Jackson. Then, the Zack Ryder, Rosa Mendes, and The Dudebusters, collectively known as the 'Zack Pack' were seen walking down a corridor, Zack amping the Dudebusters up for their match next! Before commercials come in, a hype video for this week's SmackDown! plays, informing the WWE Universe of the main event for the first SmackDown! of 2010 - Batista vs. The Undertaker in a Last Man Standing Match for the World Heavyweight Championship! Commercial Break2) Yoshi Tatsu & Goldust def. The Dudebusters (w/ Zack Ryder and Rosa Mendes)The change of partner from The Hurricane to good friend Yoshi Tatsu made all the difference for Goldust tonight, as he managed to be on the winning side against The Dudebusters thanks to a huge roundhouse kick from Tatsu to Baretta.Zack pulled the Dudebusters out of the ring, and yelled in their faces "Bro's are you serious?!" repeatedly, in disbelief at the loss, continually berating them as he went backstage. As Tatsu and Goldust celebrated, the mood soon changed, when Vance Archer emerged, big booting Tatsu, and throwing Goldust over the top rope, sending a message about his Royal Rumble match intentions! Backstage, Abraham Washington is seen with Tiffany, going through his contract, pointing out parts of it that should allow him to stay on ECW as the host of the Abraham Washington show. However, Tiffany points out several 'small prints' which overrule the points that Abe is making, frustrating him. After this, the camera cuts away, and in a dark room, The Hurricane's voice is heard. He says that his battles against Paul Burchill have been fierce, but tonight, with a chance to be in the Royal Rumble on the line, he will end things once and for all! Commercial Break 3) The Hurricane def. Paul Burchill (w/ Katie Lea) to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble match.In what was dubbed these two's final battle, The Hurricane put Burchill down with a huge Diving Clothesline from the top rope to qualify for the Royal Rumble.Hurricane celebrated the win that makes him the first ECW Superstar to have qualified for the Royal Rumble match! Then in the ring, Paul Burchill threw a fit, grabbing a microphone, saying his return to ECW was obviously just going to be the same as his first stint on the brand, losing against idiots dressed in silly costumes and masks like The Hurricane, and he says he's an athlete that is BETTER than stooping to playing dress up to beat his opponents. He says he's had enough of ECW, and had enough the WWE as a whole, before shouting into the microphone that he QUITS! Burchill then stormed off through the crowd, as his sister Katie Lea sat in the ring crying, pleading with him to come back! Backstage, Shelton Benjamin is seen talking to Christian, telling him he's got his back if anything kicks off tonight and the numbers go against him. Christian thanks him, before picking up the ECW Championship, and heading out of the locker room, as Shelton's phone begins to ring, and he looks at the name, which we don't see, before asking what the person on the other end wants, as the commentators put over William Regal vs. Christian in the main event! A video plays here, hyping the return to Monday Night RAW of Bret 'The Hitman' Hart next week after a twelve year absence, and how he will be confronting Vince McMahon LIVE! in the ring about the events that caused his shocking exit and absence, the Montreal Screwjob! Commercial Break4) ECW Champion Christian def. William Regal (w/ Ezekiel Jackson) by disqualification.This match was looking like it was swinging Christian's way, but Ezekiel Jackson got involved as he was setting up for the Killswitch, knocking him to the ground with a forearm smash to the back of the head, causing the disqualification.Jackson begins to pound Christian's back, Regal joining in the assault, before, just as he promised, Shelton Benjamin stormed the ring, steel chair in hand! Jackson looked ready to take on Shelton, but Regal thought otherwise, and dragged him out of the ring, Shelton helping Christian to his feet, the ECW Champion staring down his challenger at the Royal Rumble, Ezekiel Jackson, as ECW concludes. WWE2009.

ECW on SyFy: Tuesday 29th December 2009...Good promo to kick off the show with William Regal in the ring, putting over his client, Ezekiel Jackson. I'm looking forward to the path that Zeke takes. Tommy Dreamer calling Zeke out is a good thing, and I liked Zeke beating Tommy Dreamer in an Extreme Rules match of all match types. It really is a way of saying goodbye to ECW in 2009. Zeke winning was for the better. Yoshi Tatsu and Goldust knocking off the Dudebusters is a good move, keep pushing Yoshi and Goldust. You have a perfect six man tag team situation here, if Zack Ryder teamed with the Dudebusters to take on Tatsu, Goldust and the Hurricane. The Hurricane beating Paul Burchill...this turned out to be the most boring part of television on ECW in 2009. I don't see the point in qualifying matches, they are mainly just time fillers. Except the case is here I don't care if Burchill makes the Rumble match in 2010 or not. I doubt Burchill has quit for long. I see him repackaging on RAW or SmackDown. Christian beating William Regal is a fantastic main event, liked Zeke attacking the ECW Champion, it prepares us for their match at the Rumble. Overall, it was a pretty good show to say goodbye to the brand in 2009 and welcome it in 2010.
WWE Superstars: Thursday 31st December 2009...MVP beating Mike Knox is fine, but I'm not a fan of the decision for an interpromotional match to be made. Besides, if it was interpromotional, it would probably be main eventing the show selling the fact that it was SmackDown vs RAW. Shelton Benjamin beating Vladimir Kozlov...I hate this. Kozlov was betrayed by William Regal and Ezekiel Jackson, and now he's jobbing? What's worse is, it's to other faces! Atrocious booking, Kozlov should be heavily pushed as a face opposing Zeke and Regal now. Jack Swagger beating Evan Bourne...Bad decision. If it was a normal match, then it'd be okay. But Bourne is a pretty good part of variety from the generic, heavyweight superstars in the Royal Rumble match. Mind you, it's not as though any of these losers in the qualifying matches will ACTUALLY not be in the Rumble match anyway. I hope not in Bourne's case. Overall, a fair show, some bad booking though. Welcome to 2010.

ECW: As DTP said, I'm really looking forward to what you have in store for Zeke. I feel he can be a dominant World Champion if given the right mouth piece, which could be Regal. Zeke picking up the win is for the best, but I'm glad Dreamer did everything in his power. I wish the Dudebuster's would have went over, I feel they can be a valuable tag team later down the road. Random Vance Archer, haha. Hurricane over Burchill? wow. And he's quitting? Even more wow. I can definitely see him going to Raw or Smackdown, however. Christian winning by DQ is good, love the Benjamin save. Good show for what you have to work with.
Superstars: MVP over Mike Knox is obvious, just release Knox before he becomes an even bigger waste. Benjamin in the rumble is good, but I bet Kozlov still gets in there. Push Benjamin! I don't like Jack Swagger going over Bourne in a Rumble Qualifier, I feel that they should both be in. A decent superstars, I don't like all matches being Qualifiers, though.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 1 | MYNETWORKTV | 8/7 CTFriday Night SmackDown! begins with an interesting video package highlighting the first Last Man Standing match up between Batista and The Undertaker that ended in a draw, before heading into the usual opening video, and pyrotechnics display. Then, the signature 'GONG!' of The Undertaker sounds, and the World Heavyweight Champion makes an appearance. In the ring, The Undertaker says that last time he and Batista met, he put down the rabid Animal with a Tombstone Piledriver, but that was not enough. He says as an Outlaw, he should've took the law unto himself, and put down this Animal permanently, he should've made him rest in peace! He continues, saying he will right his own wrong tonight, by keeping down Batista not for three seconds, but for ten, and in doing so will keep ahold of his holy grail, the prize each member of SmackDown! roster strives for, the World Heavyweight Championship! He says Batista has been on a tear since returning to Friday Nights, and he doesn't like it one bit, because SmackDown! is The Undertaker's yard, and in his yard, Animal's must know their place! He finishes by saying tonight, he will make sure that the ambitions of World Championship glory of Batista will Rest in Peace! Then, the camera cuts to backstage where Theodore Long is stood by with Abraham Washington. Washington is trying to convince Long to sign a superstar to his roster, but it's not himself. Long says he would, but he is on probation, and doesn't want to test Mr. McMahon's patience by spending his money on a new Superstar. Washington says he'll take his star to Monday Nights then, telling T-Lo he'll live to regret his cautiousness as a break comes in. Commercial Break1) CM Punk (w/ Luke Gallows) def. Matt Hardy to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble.An excellent opening contest for this edition of SmackDown! and the crowd was firmly behind Matt Hardy. However, that wasn't enough, as with some assistance from Luke Gallows' boot, Punk took the advantage and nailed a dazed Hardy with the Go 2 Sleep for the victory.After the bout had ended, CM Punk grabbed a microphone, and said he is going to do something revolutionary next week on SmackDown!, and for the first time, reveal how he saves people with the power of Straight Edge, by saving one lucky audience member next week on SmackDown! A video package hyping the return of Bret 'The Hitman' Hart to Monday Night RAW after a twelve year absence then played, the video mentioning that he would be confronting one of the perpetrators of the Montreal Screwjob, Mr. McMahon, LIVE! in the ring! Commercials then came in. Commercial Break2) Mickie James (w/ Beth Phoenix) def. Layla (w/ Michelle McCool)A solid Diva's encounter here between the much mocked Mickie James and Layla. James' frustration really showed here, as she went all out against Layla, and it was too much for her to handle, as Mickie finished her off with the Long Kiss Goodnight.As it looked like Michelle McCool was going to make a move in and attack Mickie, Beth Phoenix entered the ring, causing Michelle to back off, Mickie thanking Beth for her support, as the commentators put over the change in character we've seen from Phoenix in recent weeks. Then, backstage, John Morrison was seen standing by in the interview area with Josh Matthews. Matthews asks whether Morrison is focused after last week's loss to McIntyre, and Morrison admits he may have acted out of character last week, but this week, no cheating tactics will save McIntyre the Intercontinental Championship, because the rightful champion, SmackDown!'s own 'Guru of Greatness' John Morrison is taking it back, next! Commercial Break3) Drew McIntyre def. John Morrison to retain the Intercontinental Championship.A hard fought battle where Morrison really went all out to try and win, but it wasn't enough, as the 'Chosen One' prevailed once more, and with cheating tactics at that. The 'Sinister Scotsman' McIntyre ducked an attempt at the Flying Chuck by Morrison, and rolled him up while holding on to his belt and the ropes for leverage, these shady tactics proving to be enough for him to take the win and keep his title.As McIntyre made a speedy getaway with the Championship due to the less reputable circumstances of the win, Morrison took fit in the ringside area, tipping up the steel steps, tearing apart the announce table, and knocking down the safety barricade between the ring and the crowd. He then stormed backstage as the commentators put over his current, angry mindset possibly affecting his behaviour. Then, on a camera, Dolph Ziggler is shown talking to someone, the person turning out to be Vickie Guerrero! Guerrero is dressed in a business suit, as the commentators put over that she is Dolph's new 'business manager', hyping that he's in a Royal Rumble qualifying match, next! Commercial Break4) Dolph Ziggler (w/ Vickie Guerrero) def. Eric Escobar to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble.Escobar was showing the effects of the brutal attack Ziggler engaged on him last week in the locker room area, with his performance being lower than his usual standard. Ziggler had him down for the three count, but instead, under instruction from Vickie Guerrero, locked him in a Sleeper Hold to take the official match victory.After the match, Guerrero grabbed a microphone, and put over Dolph Ziggler as the 'winner' of the 2010 Royal Rumble match! Ziggler smiled, as Guerrero raised his hand and the crowd showered the pair with boos, as a 'Don't Try This At Home' video featuring R-Truth plays, followed by commercials. Commercial BreakBackstage, we see Kane in a room lit in red lights, stood beside his brother, The Undertaker! Kane wishes his brother luck, but says he knows he won't need it, Undertaker saying that he has the same feelings about Kane's Royal Rumble qualifying match tonight. The two then laugh, as the camera fades to the locker room. In the locker room, John Morrison is seen, still angry, reading an edition of WWE magazine to try and calm down, before coming to a page with a picture of him as Intercontinental Champion, this making him rip the magazine to pieces! He then throws the pieces towards the camera, looking the most angry we've seen him yet, as the camera returns to the ring. 5) Kane def. David Hart Smith (w/ Tyson Kidd and Natalya) to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble.Hart Smith gave a good fight here, using his power and Hart Dungeon technical skills to try and beat the two time World Champion Kane, but it wasn't enough, as the man with the most eliminations in a single Royal Rumble match came out on top with his Chokeslam, putting himself in the biggest match of the year.As Kane celebrated, Batista was shown walking down a hallway, the commentators putting over that he will face The Undertaker in a dangerous Last Man Standing match for the World Heavyweight Championship next! Commercial Break6) Batista def. The Undertaker in a Last Man Standing Match to win the World Heavyweight Championship!What an amazing way to close the first edition of SmackDown! in 2010 with a NEW World Heavyweight Champion. A very hard hitting match up that lasted two parts of the show between two of the WWE's biggest and baddest had the WWE Universe on the edge of their collective seat throughout, and both men tried many methods of keeping their opponent down. However, in a shocking conclusion to the match, brain ruled over brawn for Batista, who after locking in the brutal Batista Bite, leaving Undertaker's shoulder incapacitated, placed the steel steps across Taker's mid section, and with Taker unable to lift the steps due to the shoulder damage, and therefore unable get to his feet before the 10 count ended, Batista came out the victor and NEW World Heavyweight Champion!Batista was then handed the World Heavyweight Championship, raising it up briefly as his theme played, before the lights in the arena fell dark, and when they returned, the Undertaker had dissapeared! Batista continued to celebrate the victory, saying he was the true standout superstar of the WWE to the camera, as the first edition of SmackDown! in 2010 ended. WWE2010.

Smackdown: Good show. Interesting way to potentially bring in a new superstar to the WWE with the Abraham Washington bit.. I'm intrigued as to who it is.
I really, really really hope that Punk gets a push after or during the rumble. It's so cliche to push him but he is hard not to love.
I'm also quite intrigued to see how the whole John Morrison going crazy gimmick turns out. I hope he gets the championship back.
As for Batista winning the championship, not too sure how keen I am on this yet. I don't think that Batista should have won it like that, but at least it sets up a match at the Royal Rumble.
Excited to see where you go with this! Keep up the great work.

WWE SmackDown: Friday 1st January 2010...Happy New Year, I'm expecting quite an entertaining year in 2010. Anyways, odd that we get a promo from the Undertaker considering we have him facing Batista in the main event of this very show. Wasn't so necessary. You could have gotten away with a match to kick off. CM Punk beating Matt Hardy is obviously a fine result. Glad that Luke Gallows got involved at one point, but once again my problem with the qualifying matches for the Royal Rumble is that I still expect to see Matt in the Rumble match. Nice brief comments afterwards, would have still preferred Punk to cut a promo to kick off the show, and then let this match start the show. Mickie James beating Layla is fine. I really enjoyed the womens division on SmackDown around this time. Another WWE Intercontinental Championship defence? Stop it. It's getting pretty old now. Drew McIntyre with the sly finish against John Morrison means we're going to get ANOTHER match. Dolph Ziggler debuting Vickie Guerrero as his manager is great, ironic as well that he defeated Vickie's old client Eric Escobar. Escobar sucked and I don't get why he is still employed. Kane beating David Hart Smith was expected. I honestly don't mind if the Hart Dynasty are in the Royal Rumble match or not in this case. Batista winning the World Heavyweight Championship is a fantastic start to the year. Quite pleased with how you pulled this off. Had some nice psychology in the finish, definitely. Great shock value to start off the year. Overall, a solid show to kick off 2010.

MONDAY, JANUARY 4 | USA NETWORK | 9/8 CTA video package, highlighting the career in the (then) WWF of Bret Hart plays to start the show, highlighting the amazing in ring performances, and championship wins he had during his career under Vince McMahon. The video package then fades into a greyscale effect, and the Montreal Screwjob plays, before a modern day image of Bret Hart appears, and a voice hypes tonight, Vince McMahon confronts Bret Hart! As the camera fades into the live feed, we see John Cena walking into the arena via the car park, only to be blindsided by Sheamus with a Brogue Kick, which takes Cena down, and Sheamus swiftly follows this up with another Brogue Kick when he gets to his feet. Sheamus then grabs Cena and uses the Celtic Cross on him, dropping him on the hood of a car, Cena screaming out and wincing in pain, as Sheamus heads back into the arena, the camera heading to ringside! The camera focuses in on Justin Roberts, who introduces, after a twelve year absence, Bret 'The Hitman' Hart! Hart's theme then plays, the arena erupting, but The Miz emerges from the curtain to an absolutely resounding chorus of boo's! Miz climbs in the ring, and says everyone wants to see the injustice that was the Montreal Screwjob righted, but he doesn't care, he wants another injustice righted, and that's the fact that some back o' beyond olive farmer from Italy, Santino Marella, getting lucky and beating him, The most awesome superstar on the roster, The Miz last week, and he wants Santino to come out right now, and give back a title he doesn't deserve to hold! Miz waits in the ring for Santino, but is shocked when the most iconic riff in the WWE's history plays, and Bret 'The Hitman' Hart emerges! The crowd goes insane for Bret Hart, who stands and soaks in the great reaction at the top of the ramp, as pink fireworks explode behind him. Bret then heads to the ring, and grabs a microphone, and says that it feels fantastic to be back in a WWE ring after twelve long years! Miz however, rudely interrupts, and tells Bret to hurry up, and get himself out of the ring, because there's more important things to attend to! Bret says that he understands Miz's frustrations, but asks if he can imagine twelve years of frustration like he has suffered, and now he has the chance to put all that behind him. He's about to continue, when Shawn Michaels makes his way out to the ring, to a a more negative reaction than he is used to, an old rivalry now looking like it will be rekindled! Michaels climbs in the ring, and Miz screams in his face as well, saying he's had just about enough of this, but HBK nails him with Sweet Chin Music, sending him flying out of the ring! Michaels then explains that his 'dodgy eye' must have made him hit Miz, making the crowd and Bret laugh, before saying that he's not here to fight Bret, because he knows he has wasted far too much time doing that. He says that during the time between Bret leaving the WWE, retiring, and all those events, he changed, and for the better too. He found God, and realised that his behaviour in the past had been unacceptable, and so he asks Bret whether he could find it within himself to forgive him for the way he had previously behaved! Shawn extends his hand, and Bret then speaks, saying that he's not just going to forgive him, he wants to be something they haven't been in a long time, friends. He then shakes Shawn's hand, before bringing him in, the two sharing an embrace to the delight of the fans, before HBK leaves the ring. Bret then says he's glad to have moved forward with Shawn, but says that at the end of the night, he wants to see Vince McMahon and do the same, the fans cheering as the first part of the evening closes! Commercial BreakRAW returns with Bret Hart backstage in his office, when Randy Orton walks in with The Legacy. Orton asks whether Hart feels he has space on this show for some trial matches for his apprentices, Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase, to which Bret replies he does, saying he has perfect opponents in mind for what Randy wants to achieve. He tells The Legacy to go and get ready, because tonight they'll be in action against two very different opponents. Legacy look at each other, Orton barking at them to go, 'The Viper' staring out Bret Hart, who wishes him luck against Kofi Kingston tonight, Orton smirking at this before wandering off as the we return to ringside. 1) The Great Khali (w/ Ranjin Singh) def. Chavo Guerrero to qualify for the 2010 Royal Rumble Match.Great Khali really got the crowd going in this one, as Chavo pleaded with him to let him win, saying this was his second chance, and he won't get another! However, Khali had no mercy, and nailed the Punjabi Plunge on him for the win and the place in the Rumble.Commercial BreakAs the camera returned to the live show, Chavo Guerrero was seen complaining to Bret Hart that his qualifying match was unfair due to the size disadvantage he was left at. Bret says more than once in his career he was at a disadvantage, but it never stopped him, so maybe Guerrero should be what he was born, a Warrior, and stop complaining, and get on with trying to qualify! We then see Abraham Washington stood backstage in the interview area. He says that we have seen several apparent 'superstars' come and go in recent years, but the man who stands next to him is the epitomy of a true superstar. He then introduces him, calling him the 'A-List Athlete' David Otunga, and saying he's here to be like the cream of the crop, and rise to the top! Then, The Legacy enter the ringside area, as the commentators put over that it must be time for their 'trial matches'. 2) Ted DiBiase def. Evan Bourne to remain in The Legacy.Randy Orton was sat at ringside for this, watching DiBiase, but he didn't buckle under the pressure, keeping control throughout, eventually finishing off Bourne with Dream Street for a pinfall win.DiBiase went outside the ring, where Randy Orton was sat, before asking him 'how was that', Orton simply extending his hand, Ted taking it and shaking it, Orton looking like he approved the effort put in by his protégé. A nervous looking Cody Rhodes then entered the ring, as Orton looked on, before the theme of the World Strongest Man, Mark Henry played, proving that Bret was serious when he said two very 'different' opponents were in store. 3) Cody Rhodes def. Mark Henry to remain in The Legacy.Cody went all out on an assault on Henry's knees in this one, taking away the stable base the 'World's Strongest Man' had, before shockingly making him submit, using a Figure Four Leg Lock to force through a victory.Cody then headed to the outside, looking a lot calmer now, Orton on his feet, congratulating Cody on the job well done, with DiBiase looking on, visibly confused by Orton's behaviour. Then the camera heads backstage, where Bret Hart is in his office, watching the Best of RAW 2009 DVD, when the WWE Champion Sheamus walks in. Sheamus says it's a shame that he doesn't feature on the DVD, because he's the best thing about RAW, in fact, he's the best there was, the best there is, and the best there ever will be on Monday nights. Bret smiles, saying if that's the case, why did he have to blindside John Cena earlier tonight? And if he's such a good competitor, how about he gets ready for a WWE Championship match against a surprise returning opponent, tonight! Sheamus protests at both statements, but it's all in vain, as Bret says he knows just who to call, ordering Sheamus to get ready as commercials come in. Commercial Break4) D-Generation X def. Chris Jericho and The Big Show to retain the Unified WWE World Tag Team Championships.Chris Jericho and The Big Show tried it all here, but it was to no avail, as just like each time before, DX proved to be the better team and tonight was no different, as the Sweet Chin Music and Pedigree combination left Jericho down for the count!Big Show simply left Jericho knocked out in the ring, shaking his head at him getting pinned. Then the camera's went backstage where a limosuine pulls up, and Vince McMahon steps out, greeted by Triple H and Shawn Michaels as he heads into the arena, congratulating them on their win. Triple H then asks Vince if he's heard what Hart wants to do, with Vince saying he has, but he wants to make sure things remain civil, and so he wants Triple H to be out there. Triple H looks at Vince, before saying he understands it could be scary for him, but this time he needs to do this on his own, he doesn't need him or Shawn with him. Vince looks at Triple H, and agrees, as the camera's head to the locker room, where Randy Orton is seen saying to Rhodes and DiBiase that he'll show them how much of a winner he is against Kofi Kingston, next! Commercial Break5) Kofi Kingston def. Randy Orton to become #1 Contender to the WWE Championship at the Royal Rumble.An outcome that the WWE Universe really wanted to see here in this two part spectacle between the two heated rivals Kingston and Orton, but for a while it didn't seem like it was going to happen as Orton was in control. However, a clever save by Kingston, who blocked an attempt by Orton to throw him to the outside by bouncing off the ropes, followed up by a monumentous Trouble in Paradise gave Kofi the win and his first one on one WWE Championship match!Kofi celebrated this huge victory, glad to have earned a shot at the WWE Championship, and moving one step closer to his goal of being WWE Champion in 2010! The camera then head backstage, where a car had pulled up, and we see a kickpad, the 'returning superstar' seemingly arrived in the arena! Commercial BreakBackstage, Randy Orton is seen holding his head as enters the locker room, only to be confronted by Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes. Rhodes says that Orton talks about them needing to win, but he lost to Kofi Kingston again tonight! Then, an overly agressive Ted DiBiase gets in Orton's face, yelling at him about stupid trial matches and how he should be on trial for being a terrible mentor! Cody calms Ted down, telling him to stop, Orton fuming at his comments, when Bret Hart enters the room, saying that while he knows the three of them have problems, they now have one less one, as he's decided to enter them all into the Royal Rumble match! He then leaves the room, as Orton looks at his protégé's, saying if they want him to win a match, they must do what they did last year, and help him win the Royal Rumble! Then, the camera returns to the ringside area, Sheamus making his way out for the title match against the 'surprise opponent'! 6) Sheamus def. Rob Van Dam to retain the WWE Championship.The WWE Universe were surprised to see this one, that's for sure, as Rob Van Dam shocked everyone with an appearance live on Monday Night RAW, and in a WWE Championship match at that! The former WWE Champion gave it his all, pushing Sheamus to his limit, but his all wasn't enough against Sheamus, who was wearing a red sleeve on his arm, ducked a kick and spun RVD around, before bouncing off the ropes and nailing a huge clothesline, dubbed the Fiery Red Hand by commentators to take the victory and successfully retain the WWE Championship.As Sheamus celebrated in the ring, putting a foot on Van Dam's chest, Bret Hart was seen heading to the ring, the commentators putting over that he would be confronting Vince McMahon live in the ring, next! Commercial BreakBret Hart then makes his way out to the ring as RAW returns to another fantastic reception from the crowd, grabbing a mic and saying he knows why he's here, and so does Vince, so he just wants him to come out here and get it over with! Vince McMahon then makes his way out to the ring, with a microphone in hand, and speaks to Bret, saying he may not know it because of the state he was in at the time, but when Bret had his stroke, he was one of the first on the phone, checking Bret was okay, and seeing if he could afford to pay his hospital bills. He says that he regrets not trusting Bret back in November 1997, as he knows Bret was a man who could've been the 'franchise' whenever he needed him to be, and he lost a great talent, and more importantly, friend, when he betrayed him. Vince then says he is sorry, and extends his hand to Bret, who takes it and shakes it, Vince then raising the hand of Bret, showing everyone that he and Bret had made up! However, the mood soon soured when shockingly, The Miz appeared, pushing McMahon aside, and hitting Bret in the mid section with a huge knee. As Bret was on the ground, Miz headed to the outside, and grabbed a steel chair, McMahon pleading with him not to do this, tryin to take the chair off him, only to be tossed to the floor, before Miz layed into Hart with shot after shot from the steel chair, the spine of Bret being battered by steel! Bret is left motionless, as Miz screams in his face that he shouldn't have disrespected him, and that he made a huge mistake when he did, telling Bret that he'll rue the day he crossed The Miz! Miz then layed into Bret with more shots from the chair, until D-Generation X charged the ring, rushing to Bret's aid, a night of forgiveness, and repentance soured by a vicious assault by The Miz, who heads backstage as DX check on Bret and the first edition of Monday Night RAW in 2010 closes. WWE2010.

WWE RAW: Monday 4th January 2010...Great promo to kick off the show, obvious focus on Bret Hart, and the Miz false alarming the fans by using Bret's theme song would have put him over tremendously. I expected Shawn Michaels to come to the ring, him kicking Miz out of the ring may have just killed whatever momentum he just earned through his entrance though. But it does make sense. Shawn and Bret finally making up is a moment for the ages. Hopefully that wins a Slammy Award later in the year. Hmm, would have chosen a stronger opening contest definitely. The Great Khali on RAW is odd, but I guess it makes sense since he's gaining qualification to the Royal Rumble match. I'm loving this scenario where Chavo Guerrero tries to qualify for the Rumble just for larger wrestlers to destroy him to gain entry themselves. I hope he's finally entered in the match, just to be eliminated very very quickly. Abraham Washington debuting...David Otunga? Oh dear God. Too soon, in my opinion. Keep him on Superstars for a while is what I say. I like his debut occurring on the first episode of 2010 though. Ted Dibiase beating Evan Bourne seemed likely, it's extremely predictable if it's for the Legacy spots. Cody Rhodes' match going on immediately after is acceptable, good win against Mark Henry. Cody could have definitely used the Cross-Rhodes to beat Henry though. DX retaining the WWE Unified Tag Team Championships is good of course, in this final encounter against Jerishow. Finally time to end this team. Liked Show abandoning Jericho though, back to SmackDown for Chris Jericho...wonder what's in store for Big Show though. It would be interesting to see him in Money in the Bank I will say at WrestleMania XXVI. Kofi Kingston beating Randy Orton is fine, Kofi as number one contender against Sheamus is interesting. I do like the sound of Kofi's rage getting the better of him. Also adds more star power to this year's Rumble match. And I loved the 2010 Rumble match a lot. Should have opened the show though, this going on before the in-ring main event is a bad idea. Especially when after that main event we have Bret Hart confronting Mr McMahon. Rob Van Dam! Great idea. He wasn't in TNA at this point, so I hope he sticks around. Sheamus was obviously going to retain the WWE Championship of course. Isn't Sheamus still undefeated? Also, 'Fiery Red Hand' for a clothesline is a bad name, I'll admit. Nice re-enactment of real life with a very big twist, do like the Miz getting involved, but the chair shot was unnecessary. Knee to the gut, Skull Crushing Finale would have been fine. Also, what happened to Vince? Hate that he pleaded with Miz not to assault Bret, I'd have rather he remained heel and sided with Miz. Miz tossing Vince to the floor is also going to piss Vince off and next week, should be punished. Also, the DX save at the end sort've ruined the drama for the promo if I'm honest. I expect Shawn Michaels against Miz next week after what happened in the opening promo. Overall, mixed bag but stacked episode of RAW, many odd decisions made in the Bret segments though.
