 Friday Night Smackdown: October 31st, 2014 – Toyota Center in Houston, Texas
Kicking off this week’s edition of Smackdown is a video package recapping the controversial ending to this past Monday’s ending to Raw. Mr. McMahon returned to address the WWE Universe only to be attacked by the returning Wyatt Family, who we hadn’t seen since SummerSlam. There isn’t any fancy pyro this week. Instead, the camera just cuts to the arena as the new commentary team of Tom Phillips, Booker T and Byron Saxton solemnly introduce the show and informs the viewers that we’ll have an update on the condition of the McMahons later tonight. With that out of the way, they want to get things going on a happier note.
DIVAS HALLOWEEN COSTUME BATTLE ROYAL; Included in this Battle Royal are Alicia Fox dressed as a literal fox, Brie Bella as Wilma Flintstone, Nikki Bella as Betty Rubble, Cameron as a firefighter, Eva Marie as a devil, Layla as a clown, Natalya as little red riding hood, Naomi as Batman, Tamina as Tarzan and Summer Rae as a schoolgirl. Emma is not involved because commentary tells us that with her win this past Monday, she’ll meet the winner of this match on Monday to determine the new number one contender for Paige’s Women’s Title. The eliminations come in relatively quick order. It comes down to Brie against Nikki and the twins shake hands. Nikki pulls on Brie during the handshake and sends her flying to the outside, stealing the win. Nikki Bella wins the battle royal at 3:16!From outside of the ring, Brie Bella looks up at her sister with betrayal and disdain in her eyes. Nikki shrugs at her as if to say “I had to do what I had to do”. Brie is still not happy but seems to understand as she heads off, leaving Nikki to have her own moment. This Monday night, Nikki Bella faces Emma to determine Paige’s next challenger.
Renee Young is standing by backstage to interview the former WWE Tag Team Champions, Batista and Randy Orton. She asks them for their thoughts on trying to regain their Tag Team Titles, less than a week after losing them. Batista cringes at the word “losing”, saying that he doesn’t considers flukes to be losses. “CM Punk and Daniel Bryan are lucky to be walking after Hell in a Cell, let alone be Tag Team Champions.” Randy Orton continues, saying that tonight, they will go out and show the world once again why they are future Hall of Famers and the two most dangerous men in the WWE.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – ADRIAN NEVILLE (6) VS. CODY RHODES (14); Just five nights removed from the biggest win of his career, Cody Rhodes looks to continue his hot streak. Adrian Neville suffered a tough loss to the Miz on the Hell in a Cell Kickoff show and is still nursing the leg work done during that match. Neville puts on a spirited effort, countering some of Cody’s signature offense and picking up several near falls. The crowd buys into him having a chance against the man in first place. Neville goes up top for the Red Arrow, but that bum leg comes into play and he stumbles, crashing to the mat. He slowly gets up and Rhodes is ready with the Disaster Kick, staying in first place. Cody Rhodes defeats Adrian Neville in 8:48!“The unthinkable run of Cody Rhodes continues! He’s now 8-1 and still has the best record in the Survival Trials” says Tom Phillips. Cody Rhodes helps Adrian Neville, who is still moving gingerly, to his feet before the referees assist him in leaving the ring. Cody stays behind to celebrate his win. He is one step closer to clinching a spot in the finals.
After the break, the music of the brand new WWE United States Champion Alexander Rusev hits. He walks down to the ring, with Lana in tow. When they enter, Lana snatches a microphone from ringside. She tells the crowd to shut up before saying that they returned from Bulgaria this morning. “It was so beautiful there and Rusev was welcomed like a hero. He won the United States Title and is now officially Bulgaria’s greatest athlete. However, Rusev’s dominance does not stop here. He has still yet to be pinned or submitted inside this ring. Nobody will be able to take the title from him.” Lana says that it begins tonight as Rusev destroys his opponent and continues at the Survival Trials Finals. “You see, earlier today, when Rusev and I arrived back in the United States, we were informed that Alberto Del Rio will be getting his rematch on that night. It matters not because the end result will be just as it was at Hell in a Cell. Rusev will CRUSH!”
NON-TITLE MATCH: WWE UNITED STATES CHAMPION ALEXANDER RUSEV W/ LANA VS. FANDANGO W/ LAYLA; Neither of these guys are fan favorites but the WWE Universe decides to get behind Fandango. Unfortunately, they don’t get a lot of time to do so as Alexander Rusev comes out like a monster. Rusev locks in the Accolade and Fandango submits. Alexander Rusev defeats Fandango in 1:01!There is another win for the current WWE United States Champion, Alexander Rusev. He releases the Accolade once Lana gives him the signal and they pose together over Fandango’s fallen body. The incredible run of Rusev continues but he is headed into battle with a tough challenge ahead of him as Alberto Del Rio gets his rematch at the Survival Trials Finals.
Returning, the fans boo loudly as 3MB is in the ring. They are dressed as three members of the Beatles. Heath Slater speaks, saying that they decided to get costumes of the only band in history that even remotely compares to them, the Beatles. “There was no need for a Ringo Starr because…nobody liked him anyway” says Heath before he breaks out into hysterical laughter. Even Drew McIntyre and Jinder Mahal don’t seem to find it as funny as he does. Heath realizes this and stops laughing, deciding it’s time to perform. Before they can though, we hear “FEED ME MORE” as Ryback steps through the curtain to a pop. HEATH SLATER W/ DREW MCINTYRE AND JINDER MAHAL VS. RYBACK; The angry “Big Guy” means business tonight. He pretty much annihilates Heath Slater, similar to what Alexander Rusev just did to Fandango. He lays out Slater with the Shell Shock, securing the win. Ryback defeats Heath Slater in 1:17!
“I’m pretty sure that somewhere, Curtis Axel is regretting what he did to Ryback on Monday” says Byron Saxton. Ryback smacks head as he stands up, mouthing something to the camera about Curtis Axel. He has his former Rybaxel partner in his crosshairs.
Adam Rose, Santino Marella and the Exotic Express are roaming the halls, searching for the best Halloween party. The first door they knock on reveals Big E, dressed as a ninja turtle. He doesn’t speak, butlooks at the Exotic Express and chooses to join in, doing some rather interesting grinding. The second door reveals the Age of Enlightenment, both somehow dressed as Albert Einstein. “Wait, how are you both Einstein?” asks Rose. Damien Sandow and Xavier Woods look annoyed by the question, and refuse to join the festivities. Santino shrugs and heads forward, saying that there better be something good next. When they open the door, the Boogeyman steps out of a dark room. “This is Halloween. This is Halloween. I’m the Boogeyman and I’m coming to getcha!” Boogeyman smashes his clock over his head, freaking out everyone. Rose decides to move the party elsewhere and everyone cautiously passes by him.
Back to the arena, Justin Roberts introduces the brand new WWE Intercontinental Champion, Dolph Ziggler. Dolph’s music plays over the loudspeakers as he enters the ring to a very positive reaction from the WWE Universe. Dolph says that tonight, he’s keeping it short and sweet. “Last Monday, I introduced the Showoff Invitational Open Challenge for my Inter-“. Dolph is cut off by loud pyro and the arrival of Chris Jericho. He has a microphone and talks on his way to the ring, saying that a shot at the Intercontinental Championship is just what he needs to right the ship. “I’m currently sitting at an abysmal 2-7 record in the Survival Trials and that is unacceptable. I am Chris Jericho dammit. A former six time World Champion, future WWE Hall of Famer and a record nine time Intercontinental Champion. If I can beat you and become a ten time champion, things will turn around and I will be back to the same Chris Jericho that I’m supposed to be.” Ziggler readily accepts the challenge.
WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP – DOLPH ZIGGLER (C) VS. CHRIS JERICHO; With the history that these two have, it’s no wonder this begins as a bit of a slugfest, which is normally not either man’s strong suit. Chris Jericho chooses to attack the leg of the champion, setting up for the Walls of Jericho. Dolph Ziggler sets him back with a loud superkick, sending him outside. Jericho barely beats the count back inside and catches a second superkick attempt. He trips up Ziggler and tried for the Walls of Jericho. Dolph fights it before pulling Jericho into a small package to get the win. Dolph Ziggler defeats Chris Jericho to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship in 6:32!In a match finishes a lot quicker than most people probably expected, Dolph Ziggler gets one over on Chris Jericho. Dolph slides out of the ring, limping, and grabs the Intercontinental Title, holding it high in the air. The look of disappointment and frustration on the face of Chris Jericho is imminent. He is nearly pulling his hair out, having let another match slip through is fingertips.
Much like this past Monday, we see more footage of Bo Dallas and the Big Show. Instead of doing laps this time, Bo seems to be teaching Big Show about the art of motivational speaking. “You see Show, you’re great at public speaking but you don’t know how to properly motivate people. As a giant, you don’t need much motivation, because you can crush anyone who stands in your way.” Bo gives an example of a proper motivational speech, while Show listens. Bo wants Show to try, which he gives a shot. However, Show does it in a very high pitch voice, similar to Bo’s. “If you all just say your prayers, take your vitamins and Bolieve, any and everything is possible. Don’t think of anything as impossible, think of it as I’m possible.” Show ends it with a cheesy thumbs up, clearly sarcastic, but Bo is nearly overcome with tears. “That was so beautiful. I think we can move on, you’ve struck gold with this buddy.”
SURVIVAL TRIALS – THE MIZ (4) VS. SAMI ZAYN (8); Last night on NXT, some big news was broken. While he’s mathematically eliminated from the Survival Trials right now, Sami Zayn will take part in the Survival Trials Finals show, when he gets a shot at Corey Graves’ NXT Championship. During this match, the Miz is heard shouting that he can help Zayn with his personality, just like he tried to do for Adrian Neville. Sami never agrees to take the help, fighting back each time. Miz charges in for the Awesome clothesline, but Sami moves and Miz crashes into the corner. Sami runs in with the Helluva Kick, scoring the victory. Sami Zayn defeats the Miz in 7:07!Sami Zayn leaps up to a roar from the WWE Universe. They’ve really taken a liking to the NXT Superstar. While he may not be able to get a shot at Brock Lesnar at Survivor Series, he does improve to 5-4, while also gaining momentum before his huge NXT Title shot. The Miz has the dubious honor of staying in last place for now, at 2-7.
Tom Phillips now leads the way in promoting this weekend’s WWE Network special Survival Trials live events. On Saturday in Binghamton, New York, three matches go down. All three Shield members are in action as Dean Ambrose takes on the Miz, Seth Rollins goes one on one with Chris Jericho and Roman Reigns looks to keep up the pace against Alberto Del Rio. Then, one night later in Syracuse, Del Rio is in action again against Sami Zayn. The Authority looks to play spoiler to the top of the Survival Trials standings when Bad News Barrett goes against John Cena and former Intercontinental Champion Sheamus meets first place Cody Rhodes.
Speaking of the former Intercontinental Champion, Renee Young is standing by with Sheamus. She asks him what’s next for the “Celtic Warrior.” He responds, “I will not be asking for a rematch against Dolph Ziggler. He won the Hell in a Cell and I considered that the end of our rivalry. Don’t get me wrong, I still hate his little guts but that’s behind me now.” Sheamus then says that his immediate focus is on the end of the Survival Trials. He admits that it hasn’t gone well so far, but on Raw he proved that he was still a force to be reckoned with when he defeated Dean Ambrose. He promises to put an end to Cody Rhodes’ lucky streak this Sunday night and when the tournament ends, you can bet that Sheamus will find a way to have gold around his Irish waist again.
A video plays to recap the heinous attack on Vince McMahon by Bray Wyatt and the Wyatt Family this past Monday. Tom Phillips then directs us to Stephanie McMahon, who is live via satellite with an update. Tom asks her about the condition of her father. Surprisingly, a disgusted look comes across her face. “How dare you Tom? Something terrible happened to a McMahon on Raw but it wasn’t my father. It was me. I was knocked out in the locker room and had to be taken to the hospital. I agreed to this interview because I thought you would want an update on my status. You know me right? Stephanie McMahon. The Billion Dollar Princess. The woman that this company rightfully belongs to.” Stephanie says that he is fine and will be at Raw this Monday before taking off her microphone and throwing it down. Tom Phillips awkwardly sends it to the ring for the main event.
WWE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP – CM PUNK AND DANIEL BRYAN (C) VS. BATISTA AND RANDY ORTON; Sunday night, these two teams waged war in Hell in a Cell. The effects of that match are visible on all four men, but CM Punk and Daniel Bryan especially. Bryan has his ribs taped, which might as well be a target. Batista and Randy Orton attack it like a shark smelling blood. They pick him apart, focusing everything on the ribs. Bryan slips free and hits a big running elbow on Batista. He tags in Punk at the same time that Orton gets the tag. Punk comes in on fire and hits everything in his path. He does springboard in for a clothesline right into Orton’s RKO. Batista covers but it quickly gets broken up. Orton ends up as the legal man as his team tries the RKO/Batista Bomb combination. Bryan breaks that up with the Busaiku Knee, taking out Batista. Punk grabs Orton and nails him with the GTS, pinning him to retain the belts. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan defeat Batista and Randy Orton to retain the WWE Tag Team Championships in 11:12!The official calls for the bell and hands CM Punk and Daniel Bryan their belts. They raise them over their heads while Batista pulls Randy Orton out of the ring. The former champions look on angrily while the new powerhouse of the tag team division pose for the fans in attendance. Judging by the look on Batista’s face, this war isn’t quite over.
 1. Cody Rhodes (8-1, 16 points) 2. Roman Reigns (7-2, 14 points) 3. John Cena (7-2, 14 points) 4. Bad News Barrett (5-4, 10 points) 5. Sami Zayn (5-4, 10 points) 6. Dean Ambrose (4-5, 8 points) 7. Alberto Del Rio (4-4, 8 points) 8. Seth Rollins (4-5, 8 points) 9. Adrian Neville (3-7, 6 points) 10. Sheamus (3-6, 6 points) 11. Chris Jericho (2-7, 4 points) 12. The Miz (2-7, 4 points)

- CM Punk and Daniel Bryan in the main event retaining their WWE Tag Team Championships beating the former champions Batista & Orton of The Authority in the rematch that is twice now that Punk and Bryan have beaten Batista & Orton in back to back meetings the first time was back at Hell in a Cell inside Hell in a Cell in the first ever Tag Team Hell in a Cell Match for the titles and then right here on Smackdown in Batista & Orton's rematch clause they get beaten again by Punk and Bryan you would think after that that this would be over but I see it all culminating at Survivor Series somehow...either the titles get up on the line yet again or it ends up being Punk & Bryan co-captaining their own Survivor Series team against Batista & Orton's team which they would co-captain that is what I think happens
- You would think Stephanie she would be more worried about her father Vince especially after he was attacked by The Wyatt Family which makes me wonder if Stephanie is on it? I wonder if Stephanie she was or is the one who sent The Wyatt Family after her father sicked them on him I mean I wouldn't put it past Stephanie to do something like that but if Vince is going to be on RAW this Monday I wonder if that is really wise for him to be there considering what Wyatt, Harper and Rowan did to him last week on RAW?
- It makes me wonder what Sheamus is planning to do especially now that he has lost the WWE Intercontinental Championship to Ziggler especially inside Hell in a Cell? I mean Sheamus he even said himself that he is done with the IC Title so it makes me wonder which title Sheamus is now setting his sights on? I wouldn't be surprised if Sheamus sets his sights on the WWE World Heavyweight Championship especially after the Survival Trials tournament is over I wouldn't be surprised if Sheamus ends up doing that or if Sheamus decides to set his sights on the Money in the Bank briefcase which is held by his Authority brethren Barrett
- Saturday and Sunday look packed as far as live events go for the Survival Trials matches I mean so many good matches like Del Rio/Reigns, Miz/Ambrose and Rollins/Jericho but then the next night you have Barrett/Cena and Sheamus/Rhodes which are barn-burner match-ups in of itself
- Sami Zayn in Survival Trials takes his record to 5-4 beating The Miz who is now 2-7 I think it is safe to say Miz is mathematically eliminated from Survival Trials but then again so is Sami Zayn as well but at least Zayn picks up momentum heading into his huge NXT Championship match considering he is facing the NXT Champion Corey Graves at the next NXT PPV for the title but you can bet Corey Graves was watching this match some way some how somewhere and if he is then I am sure he is or probably has already scouted Zayn
- This is what Big Show has been reduced to? Really? I mean at one time this man used to be a feared monster here in the WWE the resident giant of the WWE a destroyer and now look at what Big Show has become now ever since aligning himself with Bo Dallas he has become nothing more than pathetic sad really
- The Show Off Open continues for the WWE Intercontinental Championship with Ziggler defending his title against a mystery opponent and his mystery opponent being none other than Chris Jericho...who remembers the battles that these 2 have had? I know I have and not to mention Jericho is the greatest WWE Intercontinental Champion of all time he has won it the most times a record 9 times and Jericho is one step away from making it an unprecedented 10th but then Ziggler finding a way to win beating Jericho to stay IC Champion I mean I wonder if all of this just losing matches is finally starting to get to Jericho? Could we be seeing a Chris Jericho heel turn? I mean it could happen considering he has been losing a lot and losing causes frustration and frustration turns to superstars turning on other superstars just beating the holy hell out of them and with Jericho's record in Survival Trials and now this I think Jericho just may be at his breaking point
- That backstage Halloween segment with The Boogeyman of all people showing up I mean it makes sense because of Halloween and what not but seeing him with the likes of Santino, Adam Rose, Big E. and The Age of Enlightenment showing up only for The Boogeyman to crash it...can you say WTF? I know I can
- Ryback squashing Heath Slater in less than a minute and a half I mean could this be the start of Ryback's babyface turn? If it is hopefully he can become the Ryback of old just squashing people being so dominant winning matches and who knows by Ryback doing that he can burst back on to the main event scene but you can bet Curtis Axel was watching and if he is I would hate to be Axel once Ryback gets his hands on him
- Rusev in his first match since becoming WWE United States Champion he beats Fandango didn't just beat him he dominated him he actually crushed him literally I mean if Rusev could make Fandango tap out to The Accolade I mean who will be able to get out of that? If Del Rio couldn't and no one else could then who in the hell can? I mean Rusev just who will be able to beat him and become WWE United States Champion ending his undefeated streak? Because mind you Rusev is undefeated unpinned unsubmitted ever since bursting on to the scene here in WWE and Del Rio getting his rematch at Rusev for the title but at the Survival Trials Live PPV Special on the 9th I can't wait for that...that will be a collision to say the least
- Cody Rhodes all I have to say about him is just that he is at the right place at the right time but he is definitely the wrong guy and what I mean about that is that his entire run in this Survival Trials tournament has been nothing short of lucky he keeps getting one fluky win after another winning these matches somehow by fluke...I mean how much longer can his luck really last for? I mean come on let's be realistic here he has to lose sometime I mean he has been winning all these matches seemingly by luck by a stroke of luck but sooner or later his luck is bound to run out sooner or later especially since he is now 8-1 in this Survival Trials tournament beating Neville who is now 3-7 which would basically eliminate him and if Rhodes wins his next match he clinches a spot in the finals yeah basically off of luck but either way I am sure the WWE World Heavyweight Champion The Beast The Conqueror The 1 in 21-1 Brock Lesnar he is watching this and if he is... I am sure he is not impressed at all by Cody Rhodes neither is Heyman for that matter
- And the Halloween Divas Battle Royal ending with Nikki Bella winning which means she will face Emma in a #1 Contender's Match to determine who faces Paige for that WWE Women's Championship I am assuming the title match is at Survivor Series and if I am right about that then imagine if Emma wins? Just imagine it you have 2 best friends BFFs facing each other for the title and if one wins one is bound to turn on the other no matter who wins but then again if Nikki wins I wouldn't have a problem with that

This Monday night on RAW and this Thursday night on Smackdown will pretty much determine who is eliminated from Survivor Trials but it will also determine who is in the Final on November 9th on that PPV live special so either way this week looks pretty action packed

 WWE Live Event: November 1st, 2014 – Floyd L. Maines Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Binghamton, New YorkTheme Song: "Survival" by Eminem
The commentary duo of Tom Phillips and Renee Young lead the introduction to the show tonight. While the arena is rather small, it’s tough to really tell due to the dark lighting setup for these events. We go right into the action as tonight, we’ll see all three members of the Shield in Survival Trials action.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – CHRIS JERICHO (4) VS. SETH ROLLINS (8); As we saw on Smackdown last night, the frustration of a 2-7 record so far has really started getting to Chris Jericho. Seth Rollins has had his fair share of issues as of late, but the win over Roman Reigns at Hell in a Cell seems to have calmed him. They go back and forth at a quick pace for most of the match. Jericho has begun resorting to trying for pinfalls at every opportunity. He tries the Walls of Jericho but Seth kicks him back into the corner. Jericho falls to his knees, opening the door for Seth to nail a vicious superkick. Seth hooks the leg and earns two more points. Seth Rollins defeats Chris Jericho in 8:22!
Seth Rollins stands up and raises his arms in the air. He may no longer be alive in the Survival Trials, but the Shield remains the strongest entity in the WWE. Tonight, they have a chance to truly showcase their dominance over the WWE in three separate matches.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – DEAN AMBROSE (8) VS. THE MIZ (4); Looking to follow in his teammate’s footsteps, Dean Ambrose comes very close on a quick rollup. The Miz gets in some of his trademark offense, but runs into trouble because he’s more worried about not getting hit in his “moneymaker”. He does try to get a countout victory, but Ambrose just makes it inside by the time the official reaches nine. Miz grabs Dean for the Skull Crushing Finale only for Dean to elbow him in the ribs and nail Dirty Deeds, scoring the win. Dean Ambrose defeats the Miz in 7:14!
The Shield have begun the night 2-0. Unfortunately, Dean Ambrose is currently mathematically eliminated from the Survival Trials. Still, any and all wins are important as Dean Ambrose builds some momentum for the future. Can Roman Reigns make it a Shield clean sweep?
SURVIVAL TRIALS – ALBERTO DEL RIO (8) VS. ROMAN REIGNS (14); Word broke out last night on Smackdown that Alberto Del Rio has a United States Championship match coming up at the Survival Trials Finals next week. Roman Reigns is someone that is absolutely fighting for his chance, currently tied with John Cena at 7-2. Del Rio attacks the arm throughout. Not only does it soften the arm for the Cross Armbreaker, but it takes away Reigns’ Superman punch and spear. He goes for the spear at one point, but it’s a weak version that doesn’t get the job done. Del Rio slaps on the seemingly unbreakable Cross Armbreaker! Reigns can’t find a way out but manages to roll over, pinning Del Rio’s shoulders to the mat, 1-2-3. Roman Reigns defeats Alberto Del Rio in 14:33!
The fans cheer as Alberto Del Rio releases the hold and looks at the official, stunned at the result. Roman Reigns stumbles back, holding his arm in pain. “Even with his best weapons neutralized, Roman Reigns still found a way to win and move to an incredible 8-2 with his final tournament match coming up in two nights on Raw” says Tom Phillips. Dean Ambrose comes down through the crowd and watches from just behind the guardrail. This Monday, it will be Reigns taking on Ambrose with big Survival Trials implications!
1. Cody Rhodes (8-1, 16 points) 2. Roman Reigns (8-2, 16 points) 3. John Cena (7-2, 14 points) 4. Bad News Barrett (5-4, 10 points) 5. Dean Ambrose (5-5, 10 points) 6. Seth Rollins (5-5, 10 points) 7. Sami Zayn (5-4, 10 points) 8. Alberto Del Rio (4-5, 8 points) 9. Adrian Neville (3-7, 6 points) 10. Sheamus (3-6, 6 points) 11. Chris Jericho (2-8, 4 points) 12. The Miz (2-8, 4 points)

- The Shield going 3-0 at the WWE Live Event in their respective Survival Trials matches I mean I wouldn't expect anything less from The Shield
- Rollins going to 5-5 beating Jericho who goes to 2-8...to me Jericho vs Rollins is a dream match that I know I have always wanted to see and for it to happen here it was entertaining and hell even though both men are eliminated mathematically from the Survival Trials tournament this match was as back and forth as it goes but with Rollins getting the win he actually proved that after this Survival Trials tournament is over and done with that he possibly could gain momentum while Jericho on the other hand just continues to keep losing...I mean it is one of these days that the losses will turn into frustration and when it does he will turn on the people and he will turn heel becoming the Chris Jericho of old becoming "The Best in the World at Everything He Does" wearing suits having a scowl on his face all the time I just see it happening
- Ambrose going to 5-5 beating The Miz who goes to 2-8 well the thing is is that with Miz he and Jericho pretty much have the same record all be it Miz is in dead last but still I bet Miz he will probably go on a rant and say how that he was a victim of circumstances or that he was screwed by the Survival Trials system never mind the fact that he couldn't win a match to save his life...it was his own fault for his own predicaments yeah sure he won 2 matches but the rest were all losses whereas Ambrose he may be eliminated but he gains even more momentum but on RAW this Monday Ambrose is facing his fellow Shield brother Reigns in Survival Trials so I wonder if we could see an implosion of The Shield?
- Reigns in the main event he goes to 8-2 beating Del Rio who goes to 4-5...I mean this match was so back and forth hell Del Rio he not only took it to Reigns he actually had Reigns beat but Reigns used Del Rio's own momentum his own finisher against him by rolling him up with his shoulders on the mat...I mean that is such a perfect way to counter the Cross Armbreaker and even Del Rio has to be impressed by that

WWE Live Event: November 2nd, 2014 – Oncenter War Memorial Arena in Syracuse, New YorkTheme Song: "Survival" by Eminem
Like last night, Tom Phillips and Renee Young are in the booth for this WWE Network special airing of the Survival Trials. Three matches take place tonight, including one that could see Cody Rhodes clinch a spot in the finals on November 9th in Nottingham, England. But first, we’re going to see a first time ever match!
SURVIVAL TRIALS – ALBERTO DEL RIO (8) VS. SAMI ZAYN (10); While both of these men are out of contention to make the finals, they are set for big matches on November 9th. Alberto Del Rio gets his United States Title rematch and Sami Zayn earns a long awaited shot at the NXT Championship. Both guys work quickly here, with Del Rio, as always, targeting the arm. Because of that, Sami is unable to lift Del Rio a few times. Del Rio connects on his hard enziguri, knocking Sami off the top, but only getting a near fall. He taps his arm, calling for the Cross Armbreaker. He tries it, but Sami counters into a rollup for two. Sami charges only this time Del Rio is the one to counter, slapping on the submission and causing Sami to quit. Alberto Del Rio defeats Sami Zayn in 15:34!
Afterwards, Alberto Del Rio raises his arms in victory, before helping Sami Zayn to his feet. Both men shake hands and now are tied in the standings with 10 points each and a 5-5 record. Sami’s final match is this Monday night against points leader Cody Rhodes, while Del Rio takes on Adrian Neville this Friday night on Smackdown.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – CODY RHODES (16) VS. SHEAMUS (6); Two men that have been complete opposites in this tournament. Cody Rhodes is on a miracle run that has him at 8-1, while Sheamus is 3-6 and recently lost his Intercontinental Championship. As he said two nights ago on Smackdown though, Sheamus comes out with a vengeance, doing everything in his power to not only turn things around, but to end Cody’s hot streak. The resilient Cody fights back and manages to nail the Disaster Kick but Sheamus gets his foot on the bottom rope. Cody can’t believe it and tries the move a second time. He goes to the well too often, as Sheamus strikes with a mid-air Brogue Kick, putting Cody away. Sheamus defeats Cody Rhodes in 12:32!
Commentary, and the WWE Universe in Syracuse are all stunned that Cody Rhodes has finally taken a second loss in the Survival Trials. He had a golden opportunity to clinch the finals against a struggling Sheamus, but couldn’t get the job done. Sheamus has a huge grin as he goads over the victory. He is just 4-6, but has now moved Cody to 8-2. Cody is still in first place via tiebreaker, but has the same record as Roman Reigns.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – BAD NEWS BARRETT (10) VS. JOHN CENA (14); There is certainly no love lost between these two as their rivalry dates back to the Nexus days. Mr. Money in the Bank takes it right to John Cena, trying to score a victory in multiple ways. Of course, you can’t just beat Cena since he’s the most resilient Superstar around. He kicks out of the Wasteland and dodges a Bull Hammer, locking Barrett into the STF. Barrett shows his ability to avoid loss too, reaching the ropes to break the hold. Cena tries for the Attitude Adjustment but Barrett elbows out. He tries one more Bull Hammer, but Cena ducks and scores on the AA, getting a crucial victory. John Cena defeats Bad News Barrett in 12:51!
The WWE Universe comes alive for another huge win by John Cena. With it, Cena moves to 8-2, tying Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns for the best record. He does stand in third place, but if he can beat Seth Rollins on the next Smackdown and either Reigns or Rhodes loses on Raw, Cena will find himself in the Survival Trial Finals!
1. Cody Rhodes (8-2, 16 points) 2. Roman Reigns (8-2, 16 points) 3. John Cena (8-2, 16 points) 4. Bad News Barrett (5-5, 10 points) 5. Dean Ambrose (5-5, 10 points) 6. Seth Rollins (5-5, 10 points) 7. Alberto Del Rio (5-5, 10 points) 8. Sami Zayn (5-5, 10 points) 9. Sheamus (4-6, 8 points) 10. Adrian Neville (3-7, 6 points) 11. Chris Jericho (2-8, 4 points) 12. The Miz (2-8, 4 points)

- Del Rio beating Sami Zayn in a back and forth match-up I mean in a match that either man could have walked out the winner I mean this match in a sense was a must-win for both men considering that at the Survival Trials PPV Live Special this Saturday they both have respective championship matches where Del Rio is facing the WWE United States Champion Rusev and Sami Zayn one half of the NXT Tag Team Champions is facing off against the NXT Champion Corey Graves for the NXT Championship but Del Rio beating Zayn...he needs more momentum heading into his match with Rusev so him going over Zayn here was the right call all be it if Zayn won it would have done wonders for him considering he's facing Graves this Saturday but Del Rio is 5-5 while Zayn is now 5-5...both men may be out of the tournament but they put on a show here in this match
- Sheamus moves to 4-6 beating Cody Rhodes in a shocker I don't believe I would have called this match but then again Cody's luck was bound to run out sooner or later I mean no one stays lucky for that long no one stays on top ahead of the pack forever so Cody's momentum was going to end sooner or later and for Sheamus to be the one to do it...talk about shocker but Cody Rhodes is 8-2 but he still has a chance to head to the final on Saturday because if he wins his next match then he is pretty much there but for Sheamus he gains even more momentum
- And in the main event John Cena renews an old rivalry with Mr. Money in the Bank Bad News Barrett, their rivalry goes all the way back to the Nexus days of 2010 so to see the rivalry renewed here in this match was quite a treat...Cena beating Barrett to move to 8-2 while Barrett goes to 5-5 I mean Barrett he is pretty much done in this tournament anyway whereas Cena he, Rhodes and Reigns are all tied with the same record 8-2 all have the same amount of points but since Cody is ahead in the tiebreaker the final stretch of the tournament should be really interesting especially as we approach to Saturday's final

  Can Roman Reigns clinch?We are coming down the stretch of the Survival Trials! The Finals come to you live on the WWE Network this Sunday, but tonight, two men can guarantee themselves a spot in the Finals and make the rest of the week irrelevant. Tonight, Cody Rhodes and Roman Reigns, who both stand at 8-2 with 16 points, can punch their tickets to the finals. First, Rhodes will take on Sami Zayn in a first time ever match! Then, the Shield brothers collides as Roman Reigns takes on Dean Ambrose. If Reigns wins, he holds the tiebreaker over John Cena and advances to the end. So much is at stake tonight on Raw at 8E/7C! |

- Reigns vs Ambrose is the match I am most looking forward to because not only is it a must-win match for Reigns but also because if he loses this match and Cena wins he is out of Survival Trials and Cena goes on to the final but if Reigns wins and Cena loses Cena is gone and out of Survival Trials but then what happens if they both lose and Cody wins his match?

If both men lose and Cody wins, Cody and Reigns make the finals since Reigns has the tiebreaker over Cena. |

Okay cool then it makes so much sense but for either man really it is a must-win match well in their respective matches for Cody to win his match against Zayn but then Reigns has Ambrose and who does Cena have? Cena has Seth Rollins

 Monday Night Raw: November 3rd, 2014 – First Niagara Center in Buffalo, New York
Before the intro video and pyrotechnics display, a video package airs recapping the heinous attack by the Wyatt Family on Mr. McMahon to close out Raw last week. The commentary team of Michael Cole, John “Bradshaw” Layfield and Jerry “the King” Lawler introduce the broadcast and promise a big night. There is less than one week remaining in the Survival Trials and tonight, two men could clinch their spots in the finals.
“Behold the king…” The crowd comes to their feet for the arrival of the COO of the WWE, Triple H. He walks to the ring with a purpose, clearly meaning business. He enters and unbuttons the top button of his shirt before speaking. He talks directly to the Wyatt Family, saying that what happened last week was despicable. “Stephane may not be concerned about it for some reason but that isn’t gonna fly with me! That was the man who built this company, the man who runs this entire operation. Hell that was my father-in-law. You sons of bitches need to get your asses out here!” The crowd comes unglued as they never expected Triple H to just show up and call out the Wyatt Family. Instead of the Wyatts though, he gets Stephanie McMahon, who arrives to a major collective groan from the audience. She has a flabbergasted look on her face as she questions her husband’s actions. Stephanie says that none of this is Triple H’s concern. “That was my father that got attacked and honestly, you’re right, I am okay with it. That may sound heartless and it probably is, but at this point, what happens to my father is not my concern. If he can’t run this place anymore then it is my birthright to take over.” Triple H can’t believe what he’s hearing. He tells Stephanie that her father has been there for them since they got married and to not care while he’s laid up in a hospital is disgusting. Stephanie doesn’t get an opportunity to respond as the Wyatt signature hits and the crowd goes nuts. The three Wyatt Family members surround the ring when the lights come back on. Stephanie McMahon is no longer on the stage, but Triple H is still in the ring. He looks around and the crowd cheers as he takes off his shirt. Erick Rowan charges in but is greeted with right hands from HHH. Luke Harper gets his licks in but HHH ducks a clothesline and nails a high knee. His momentum is stalled when Bray Wyatt gets in a cheap shot and the Wyatt members all jump him. He continues to try and fight them off but it’s to no avail. Harper hits him with a big boot as Rowan brings a chair into the ring. Bray holds up a lifeless Triple H, kisses him on the forehead and delivers Sister Abigail onto the chair. The crowd gives a mixed reaction as Bray continues to give orders. He has Rowan and Harper drag Triple H out of the ring and up the ramp. Bray shouts for them to end him. They hoist HHH up for a double Chokeslam off the stage! “Oh my god! That’s the same move that took out John Cena for weeks!” shouts Michael Cole. Bray laughs as he looks down at Triple H and the show heads to commercial.
Returning, we are taken to a recap of the heinous display that we just witnessed from the Wyatt Family. Triple H is seen being taken out in an ambulance. Commentary says the show must go on but do so in a somber tone.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – CODY RHODES (16) VS. SAMI ZAYN (10); The action side of Raw begins with a big match with massive implications. Sami Zayn has been a breath of fresh air in the Survival Trials and though he is eliminated, he has to stay on point for his NXT Title match this Sunday. Cody Rhodes continues to put on great performances. He survives a Blue Thunder Bomb down the stretch that has Sami reeling. Sami steps to the corner, looking for the Helluva Kick. He charges but Cody avoids it and school boys him for two. They get up at the same time and Sami takes a swing, only for Cody to duck and hook him for the Cross Rhodes, clinching a spot in the finals. Cody Rhodes defeats Sami Zayn in 15:18!
“It’s official ladies and gentlemen. Cody Rhodes’ hot streak now has him in the finals of the Survival Trials” says Michael Cole. Cody Rhodes celebrates along with the WWE Universe as the news that he made the finals appears on the tron. A Roman Reigns win later tonight or a John Cena loss this Friday night puts Reigns in the finals against Rhodes. The Shield, with Reigns facing Ambrose tonight and Seth taking on Cena on Smackdown, hold all of the cards.
In the back, the Authority is shown in their locker room. Stephanie McMahon enters and they all try to avoid her gaze. She senses it and immediately gets angry. She knows that they might not approve of what she allowed to happen to her husband. “I know that you’ve all been loyal to him in the past and I get that. But he’s gone soft. He doesn’t have what it takes to continue running this place like it needs to. Neither does my father and with the two of them out of the picture, I’m in full control.” To help ease things a bit more, Stephanie tells Batista that he’ll be allowed to get his hands on CM Punk tonight in the main event. Batista likes it but not everyone seems sold.
ADAM ROSE AND SANTINO MARELLA VS. BIG SHOW AND BO DALLAS; Big Show and Bo Dallas should not work well together given their personalities, but once again, that theory proves to be wrong. Their chemistry is surprisingly good, working like a well-oiled machine. Big Show hits Adam Rose with a Chokeslam, before tagging Bo Dallas and allowing him to steal the pin. Big Show and Bo Dallas defeat Adam Rose and Santino Marella in 2:40!The fans boo but also seem to get a chuckle out of Bo Dallas’ over the top celebration. He does his best to convince Big Show to join him in a victory lap. Show politely decline, so Bo gives him a big smile and proceeds to do the laps on his own.
Returning, Dolph Ziggler is already in the ring, awaiting the answer to his Intercontinental Title Showoff Invitational. “Just Close Your Eyes” hits and the crowd cheers for the arrival of former Intercontinental Champion, Christian.WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP – DOLPH ZIGGLER (C) VS. CHRISTIAN; This is one interesting match. Earlier in the year, Christian lost the United States Championship to Dolph Ziggler in a Triple Threat match. Both guys come out firing and work a lengthy match that goes through a commercial break. Christian scores various near falls, including an especially close one on a frog splash. Ziggler is as resilient as ever and picks up his own close call with a superkick. Both men struggle to best the other, though a second superkick sends Christian reeling. He stumbles to the ropes, bounces off and gets caught with the Zig Zag. Dolph Ziggler defeats Christian to retain the WWE Intercontinental Championship in 13:15!Even though he and his short lived tag team partner Kofi Kingston have both stated their desire to become a champion again, Christian falls short tonight. Dolph Ziggler is unable to celebrate for long though as surprisingly, the music of Alexander Rusev plays. He steps out onto the stage alongside the “Ravishing Russian” Lana. She quiets down the crowd and addresses Ziggler. She sarcastically congratulates him on the victory but calls it hollow. “You may hold gold around your waist, but you are not a true champion. At least, not the kind of champion that the ‘Super Athlete’ Rusev is.” Lana continues by saying that he can make all of the meaningless title defenses that he wants, but the will never compare to the United States Champion, in any way. They exit, leaving Ziggler confused and annoyed in the ring.
AJ LEE VS. SUMMER RAE; For the first time since competing in the historic women’s Hell in a Cell match over a week ago, we are getting to see AJ Lee. She looks to be mostly healed up from that barbaric encounter. Summer Rae is her usual arrogant self. It ends up being her downfall as she celebrates a spin kick for too long, allowing AJ to slap on the Black Widow and make her submit. AJ Lee defeats Summer Rae in 3:24!AJ Lee releases the hold and has her arm raised by the referee. The WWE Universe mostly cheers her but there are some boos from the fans who remember what she did to Paige leading into Hell in a Cell. The cameras go backstage where the Bella Twins are watching on a monitor. Maybe their business with AJ Lee is still not over.
A Wyatt Family vignette airs, featuring video of the attacks on Vince McMahon and Triple H. Bray Wyatt is heard laughing maniacally in the background at the end of these assaults. We still have no word on why this is happening.
JINDER MAHAL W/ 3MB VS. RYBACK; Ryback is one hungry Superstar. Since the split from Curtis Axel, he has been on a rampage and tonight is no different. Ryback attacks Jinder Mahal violently and ends him with the Shell Shock. Ryback def. Jinder Mahal in 1:18!The crowd rises to cheer for Ryback and chant “FEED ME MORE” along with him. Surprisingly, Ryback ends his chant with a motion around his waist, signaling he is looking for some championship gold. If Ryback wants gold, all current champions need to watch out.
Renee Young is standing by with the WWE Women’s Champion, Paige. Paige gets a positive reaction from the fans when she appears on screen. Renee welcomes her back after the brutal Hell in a Cell match eight days ago. Paige thanks her before Renee asks about tonight’s women’s match. Renee wants to know which woman Paige would rather face. Paige smiles and says that normally, she’d just say that it didn’t matter because she’d gladly defend the title against anyone. “That’s still the case, but tonight I have a personal preference. I’ve beaten Nikki Bella and am beyond annoyed with the Bella Twins. Emma on the other hand, is my best friend and the opportunity to give her a shot at the title would be amazing.”
SURVIVAL TRIALS – DEAN AMBROSE (10) VS. ROMAN REIGNS (16); As the match begins, the cameras show John Cena watching intently on a monitor in the back. He needs Roman Reigns to lose and to beat Seth Rollins on Friday to earn a spot against Cody Rhodes in the finals. The Shield brothers shake hands, but it is quickly clear that Dean Ambrose is trying to do his all to earn the win. Reigns picks up steam after a while and punches the mat for the Superman punch. He connects and tries a Spear but Dean dodges it and sends him into the corner. Ambrose rolls him up for a very close near fall and then hits Dirty Deeds. He covers but Reigns still manages to get a shoulder up. Dean goes for another but Reigns pushes him off the rope, nailing a Spear! He is too hurt to instantly cover, allowing Dean to kick out when he does. Both men get up at the same time but Dean strikes first, planting him with a second Dirty Deeds and scoring the win. Dean Ambrose defeats Roman Reigns in 12:26!Like when he lost to Cody Rhodes, a bit of a stunned silence mixed with some cheers comes over the crowd. Roman Reigns suffers his third loss of the Survival Trial and now opens the door for John Cena to possibly make it to the finals. Dean Ambrose holds his ribs as he gets to his feet, seemingly even being a bit surprised too. John Cena’s music plays as he steps out to the stage to a mixed reaction. He has a microphone and says that he is just out to remind everyone that this Friday is going to be the biggest match in the entire Survival Trials. Reigns grabs a microphone and tells Cena that this is kind of bush league. “You’re gonna come out here and talk about your match right after I lost mine? Not cool man.” Cena cracks a small smile and tells Reigns that if he didn’t want to hear him come out and say this, he should have won. His theme plays as he walks off and Reigns looks on.
NUMBER ONE CONTENDER’S MATCH – EMMA VS. NIKKI BELLA W/ BRIE BELLA; Shortly before the match begins, WWE Women’s Champion Paige comes down to the ring and joins commentary. Emma and Nikki Bella go back and forth, with both girls striking the other with pretty hard shots. Brie Bella trips up Emma at one point, causing Paige to get up from the booth and lay into her. Nikki misses a forearm as Emma ducks. He trips her up this time and applies the Emma Lock. Nikki struggles but can’t get free and taps out. Emma defeats Nikki Bella in 5:14!Paige is shown with a smile as her best friend has just earned a shot at her Women’s Championship. Back on Divas Smackdown last month, Emma made a point to say that she wanted to be more than just a dancer. She has gotten a bit more serious and now is as close to the title as ever. Paige enters the ring and the two women stare across at each other. Paige offers a handshake, which Emma accepts before Paige raises Emma’s hand in victory. They’ll meet at the Survival Trials Finals only on the WWE Network.
JUSTIN GABRIEL VS. KOFI KINGSTON; While his pal Christian came up short against Dolph Ziggler earlier tonight, Kofi Kingston looks to gain momentum. Justin Gabriel shows off the new attitude that he found in NXT recently. Despite that brash style, he doesn’t prove to be too much for Kingston, who puts him away with Trouble in Paradise. Kofi Kingston defeats Justin Gabriel in 3:29!Like Ryback earlier, Kofi Kingston signals that he’s coming for a title sometime soon. With Dolph Ziggler’s open challenges, he may be the next one to answer the call.
“BOYAKA, BOYAKA 619!” The WWE Universe in Buffalo comes unglued for the long awaited return of Rey Mysterio. He comes out in a suit and high fives a lot of the fans. Once he gets in the ring, he is showered with “welcome back” chants that seem to overwhelm him. He takes a deep breath and begins, thanking the fans for their continued support. He talks about loving this business and how much he’s missed it in the past few months. “I am so glad to be back. But, this was yet another surgery that my body had to recover from. It’s hit a point where I don’t know how much more my body can take. So I’ve come to a decision.” The fans seem to sense what is going on and begin to shout “No” in unison. Rey gives a small laugh and informs the WWE Universe that he is not retiring right now, gaining cheers. He does however say that he’s going to retire, gaining a mixed reaction. “In fact, that’s part of why I’m here. I’d like to bring out someone that has become a close friend of mine over the years, Alberto Del Rio.” Cheers rain down as Del Rio makes his way to the ring, a bit confused about why he’s being brought out. He shakes Rey’s hand and allows Rey to continue. “Alberto, I have a favor to ask of you. As I said, my body can’t take this for too much longer. So I’ve decided to officially retire after the Survivor Series Pay-Per-View.” Del Rio is taken aback and the fans boo again. Rey says that he wants Alberto to do him the honor of being his final opponent. It takes Del Rio a few seconds but he accepts and huge Rey. Surprisingly, the music of Tyson Kidd hits as he struts out alongside Natalya. Natalya seems to be trying to get him to head to the back but Tyson is set on coming out. He has a microphone and talks as he walks to the ring, saying that none of this matters. “We get it. Rey, you’re old and past your prime. FACT. Alberto, you lost your US Title and your edge, so nobody cares about you. FACT. Meanwhile, Tyson Kidd is the hottest Superstar in the WWE right now and the biggest reality TV star in the world. FACT.” Alberto tells Tyson to shut up and wants him to leave and give Rey his moment. Tyson sarcastically thinks about it before declining. He says that the focus should be on guys like him and not over the hill guys like the two of them. They call him to the ring but Tyson stops in his tracks. “Did I forget to mention that I’m not alone? You see, a buddy of mine has been laid up in a hospital for months thanks to an attack by you Alberto. Nobody came to visit him…except me. So he’s with me tonight and he’s pissed.” Suddenly, the returning Cesaro runs in through the crowd and levels Mysterio in the back. Del Rio swings but Cesaro ducks, pushes him off the ropes and drills him with the popup uppercut! Mysterio rolls outside, where Kidd is ready. Kidd grabs him and launches him into the steel steps before sliding into the ring to join Cesaro. The two men stand tall over Del Rio and Mysterio, while a shocked Natalya looks on along with the WWE Universe. “Why King? Why have Tyson Kidd and Cesaro joined forced? Why have they ruined this moment for Rey Mysterio?” asks Michael Cole.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – CHRIS JERICHO (4) VS. SHEAMUS (8); Unfortunately, the placement of this match kind of led to the crowd being a bit dead for it. They know that neither man has a shot to win so it took them out. Sheamus has been gaining steam as of late after a rough middle of the tournament, while Chris Jericho has been looking up at the standings from the bottom. Both guys pick up near falls throughout the match and Jericho comes close with the Walls near the end. Sheamus reaches the ropes but it doesn’t do much good as he walks into a Codebreaker. Chris Jericho defeats Sheamus in 6:29!A surprising mixed reaction comes over the crowd. Chris Jericho has had a slight attitude problem as of late, so some fans may not have been happy to see him win. Still, it’s a better option for most than Sheamus.
Before our main event, Batista is shown warming up and Randy Orton is in his face. Orton is hyping him up, reminding Batista that it was CM Punk who returned to the WWE and became a thorn in the Authority’s side. It was CM Punk who partnered up with Daniel Bryan to take their Tag Team Titles. Batista says that he doesn’t need any more motivation because he’s going to go out and destroy Punk.
BATISTA W/ RANDY ORTON VS. CM PUNK W/ DANIEL BRYAN; Due to the history in recent months between the two men involved, this turns out to be exactly the fight you’d expect. Randy Orton tries to get involved and it goes south rather quickly when Daniel Bryan comes around the ring to stop him. The two men reignite their rivalry from last fall and do battle outside. CM Punk takes Orton out with a suicide dive before rolling back in to take it to Batista. He hoists him up for the GTS but Batista does his best to elbow his way out of it. He tries the Batista Bomb but Punk fights him off and gets free. Punk ends up locking in the Anaconda Vice. Batista never gets the chance to tap though, as the Authority members show up to attack him. CM Punk defeats Batista via disqualification in 12:02!Bad News Barrett, Sheamus, Kane and Randy Orton all gang up on CM Punk in the ring. Daniel Bryan was taken out by a Bull Hammer on the outside as Barrett ran in. Punk tries to fight off but is stopped by a vicious Brogue Kick. Randy directs traffic, taking Punk outside with Batista, while Kane, Sheamus and Barrett focus on Bryan. Barrett and Sheamus move the steel steps in place, while Orton clears off the announce table. Kane Chokeslams Bryan onto the steel steps just before Batista and Orton destroy Punk with the RKO/Batista Bomb combination. The five Authority members meet by the bottom of the ramp as the WWE Tag Team Champions are barely moving. Stephanie McMahon, who just watched her dad get left laid out last week to close Raw, steps out onto the stage with a huge grin as she watches Punk and Bryan’s destruction.
1. Cody Rhodes (9-2, 18 points) *CLINCHED FINALS*2. Roman Reigns (8-3, 16 points) 3. John Cena (8-2, 16 points) 4. Dean Ambrose (6-5, 12 points) 5. Bad News Barrett (5-5, 10 points) 6.

- Stephanie McMahon was actually all right with The Wyatt Family attacking her father The Chairman of WWE Mr. McMahon so if she was actually okay with it then that probably means that she probably ordered Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan to attack her father she probably sicked them on him especially if she said that she was all right with it while Triple H the COO of WWE he actually cares about his father-in-law which is more than I can say about Vince's own daughter Stephanie, Triple H's wife and then The Wyatt Family attacking Triple H leaving him laying like that it makes me wonder if Stephanie arranged this attack on her own husband? Wyatt, Harper and Rowan taking out Triple H like that...God only knows how long Triple H will be out for
- Cody Rhodes clinching a spot in the Survival Trials final pretty much qualifying for the final by beating Sami Zayn to go to 9-2 while Zayn pretty much finishes with a 5-6 record I mean Rhodes he has virtually been nothing short of impressive in this tournament by finishing a top of the leaderboard but I am not that impressed by Rhodes to be honest because to me his whole run in the tournament has been nothing short of lucky being in the right place at the right time but Rhodes since he is in the final it only begs the question of who he faces in the final on November 9th? Zayn has nothing to be ashamed of because in this tournament he proved that he can certainly hang with the main roster guys I mean his run in the tournament certainly proved that all be it that he finished with a 5-6 record but still Zayn has an NXT Championship match on November 9th at the Survival Trials live special facing the NXT Champion Corey Graves so he has to focus on that and I am sure he probably is but Graves you can bet he was watching this match somewhere wherever he was
- I can see why there is dissension within The Authority especially now considering Stephanie pretty much is in control and with her father and husband both gone she can be in full control but at the same time I only wonder how the members of The Authority feel about Stephanie now? Batista and Orton but also Mr. Money in the Bank Bad News Barrett or even Sheamus or even Kane for that matter...but Batista has Punk in the main event that is certainly a main event I can definitely look forward to
- Big Show and Bo Dallas beating Adam Rose and Santino...I mean surprisingly Show and Dallas are starting to come into their own as a tag team and honestly I am shocked because I really did not expect this at all especially for them to gel like such a well-oiled machine but since they are I mean they could make noise in the tag team division I mean stranger things have happened
- I just love this Dolph Ziggler Showoff Open and I will tell you why...for the simple reason that Ziggler is putting his WWE Intercontinental Championship on the line night in night out against all comers and the thing about it is that Ziggler has no idea who he is facing...that's the beauty of it the mystery opponents and the latest mystery opponent ends up being Christian of all people...Christian being a former IC Champion but also he is a former WWE World Heavyweight Champion too just like Dolph is and then Ziggler beating Christian on top of it to stay WWE Intercontinental Champion I mean Ziggler is really showing me something here he is really showing me that as WWE Intercontinental Champion he is ready to take on all comers any where at any time but also he is elevating the prestige of the WWE Intercontinental Championship restoring it back to its former glory much like how it was in the 90s
- Ziggler the WWE Intercontinental Champion going up against the WWE United States Champion Rusev...could we see Champion vs Champion? I mean considering Rusev and Lana interrupted Ziggler post-match I mean isn't Rusev still undefeated? Isn't he still unpinned or unsubmitted here in WWE?
- AJ Lee I mean her first match since the first ever Divas Hell in a Cell Match for the WWE Women's Championship...I mean AJ Lee she was just impressive in her return here I mean beating Summer Rae I mean I wonder if AJ still has designs on becoming WWE Women's Champion? I mean she did lose to Paige the WWE Women's Champion after all time and time again but then seeing The Bella Twins post-match backstage watching AJ's match I mean it is obvious that AJ Lee's feud with them will be reignited and if it is then I wonder if this will turn AJ Lee back into a babyface?
- Yes I think we all want to know why this is happening or I think we all want to know why Bray Wyatt has set his sights on The McMahons namely taking out the Chairman Mr. McMahon and then taking out the COO of WWE Triple H...like what's the reasoning? Or why?
- Ryback squashing Jinder Mahal...I think that this is Ryback's return and if it is bringing Ryback back to his former glory hopefully bringing Ryback back to his 2012 self when he first burst on to the scene and became virtually a main eventer here is hoping Ryback can start on a new undefeated streak especially now that he is back and him beating Jinder Mahal pretty much puts the locker room on notice
- Paige the WWE Women's Champion being asked on who she would rather face for her title...either her best friend Emma or Nikki Bella I mean of course naturally Paige would choose her best friend but at the same time I wonder if by doing that if their friendship would end up being strained after? Because think about it Paige is the WWE Women's Champion while Emma isn't and I am sure Emma wants to be champion just as much as Paige does so that could turn into jealousy think about it Emma could turn heel on Paige or Paige could turn heel on Emma
- Dean Ambrose beating his Shield brother Roman Reigns to move to 6-5 in Survival Trials while Reigns has a 8-3 record I mean the battle of The Shield right here and it ends with Ambrose beating Reigns...I am surprised Reigns didn't turn on Ambrose post-match or I am surprised that Ambrose didn't turn on Reigns but then again their match being so back and forth these 2 know each other so well that of course this match would be even but Ambrose winning is kind of a shocker because I was expecting Reigns to go over here but Cena showing up post-match I mean I am surprised Reigns, Ambrose and Rollins didn't ambush Cena especially after that stunt he just pulled...I would have expected a classic Shield beatdown on Cena but Cena showing up after Roman's match and saying what he said I mean that makes Cena come off like a heel here
- Emma beating Nikki Bella to become #1 Contender for the WWE Women's Championship...Paige defending her title against her best friend Emma...I am telling you come November 9th one of these 2 women will turn on the other one I am telling you the seeds have been planted as far as a heel turn goes I am telling you either Paige will turn heel or Emma will...I mean the title is at stake here both women want to be champion and Paige has been champion is champion wants to stay champion while Emma has never been champion and I am sure she probably feels like she has been living in Paige's spotlight in her shadow
- Kofi beating Gabriel...I mean Kofi Kingston pretty much has been nothing short of impressive as of late really he has been but Kofi by him beating Gabriel I wonder if he has plans on setting his sights on either the WWE United States Championship or on the WWE Intercontinental Championship because Kofi is a former WWE Intercontinental Champion in his own right but he is also a former WWE United States Champion too in his own right a multiple time WWE Tag Team Champion Kofi has done it all except win the big one that being the WWE World Heavyweight Championship
- Rey Mysterio is retiring and he wants Del Rio to be his last opponent...of all the superstars why Del Rio? Why would Mysterio choose him? But then seeing Tyson Kidd and Cesaro interrupt both and the 2 of them essentially taking out both Mysterio and Del Rio it makes me wonder why? It makes me wonder just why they would go after Mysterio? Cesaro going after Del Rio makes sense but why would he and Kidd go after Mysterio then?
- Jericho beating Sheamus...I mean it is that frustration which has caused a new attitude in Jericho so I wonder if that new attitude will cause Jericho to turn into a heel again? Could we see a heel turn from Jericho? I mean it would make sense given how he has performed not only in Survival Trials but given that as of late he has been on a downward spiral when he should be The Best in the World at Everything He Does...so I wonder if Jericho will turn heel and become one of the biggest heels like how he was back in 2008-2009? But him beating Sheamus who is a heel himself being an Authority member I mean Sheamus I can only wonder where he goes from here...Jericho finishing with a 3-8 record well at least he didn't finish in last while Sheamus finishes with a 4-7 record I mean that is bad certainly not great
- Punk one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions beats Batista one half of the former WWE Tag Team Champions and Authority member by DQ, I mean it was only a matter of time before the jackals that being Orton, Sheamus, Kane and Mr. Money in the Bank Bad News Barrett would show up and cause the match to be thrown out taking out Punk but also taking out his tag team partner and the other half of the WWE Tag Team Champions Daniel Bryan...I mean this was nothing more than a mugging here nothing more than a beatdown...and after what has happened earlier tonight it seems The Authority might be back with a vengeance here

 11/5/14 Edition
- Last night on WWE Main Event, the Miz defeated Mr. Money in the Bank, Bad News Barrett in each man's final Survival Trials match.
- A big angle is set to go down at the Survivor Series. There are several rumors for what it could be. Some sense that the Shield could be splitting up. Others are reporting an end for the Authority as a whole. Some are even speculating that Bad News Barrett may be cashing in his Money in the Bank after Brock Lesnar defends the WWE World Heavyweight Title against the Survival Trials winner.
- Speaking of the Survival Trials, the WWE has officially announced that the show will air live on the WWE Network. That means that it will begin at 3PM EST, since the show is taking place in the United Kingdom. That's unusual since big events typically happen at 8PM EST, but this is the kind of flexibility that the WWE Network allows for the company.
- In the past two weeks, the Wyatt Family have been involved in major angles. First they took out Vince McMahon in a shocking moment and last week, their focus turned to Triple H, who tried to defend his father-in-law. There is word that a third massive angle will take place this week involving the Wyatt Family. It is being kept heavily under wraps right now.
1. Cody Rhodes (9-2, 18 points) *CLINCHED FINALS* 2. Roman Reigns (8-3, 16 points) 3. John Cena (8-2, 16 points) 4. Dean Ambrose (6-5, 12 points) 5. Seth Rollins (5-5, 10 points) 6. Alberto Del Rio (5-5, 10 points)
7. Bad News Barrett (5-6, 10 points) 8. Sami Zayn (5-6, 10 points) 9. Sheamus (4-7, 8 points) 10. Adrian Neville (3-7, 6 points) 11. Chris Jericho (3-8, 4 points) 12. The Miz (3-8, 6 points) |

It seems only one match is set or confirmed for Survivor Series that being Rey Mysterio taking on Alberto Del Rio in his last match I wonder if we will see any other matches being added to the Survivor Series card? I mean considering we are like 2-3 weeks away from Survivor Series I mean it only makes sense that more matches end up on the card
Barrett would have to be a real idiot to cash in on Brock especially because it's Brock Lesnar the man is a Beast a Conqueror the One in 21-1 Lesnar is not just a mere mortal and the fact that Barrett would even try to cash in he would have to have a death wish to do so
No I see The Shield splitting up here I mean the seeds have been planted for almost too long now

 WWE NXT - November 6th, 2014: Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida
This week’s episode of NXT starts with a video package showing Sami Zayn being chosen by the fans as the NXT representative in the Survival Trials. We see Corey Graves get upset at this as well as the strong performances from Zayn, who wrapped up his Survival Trials run this past Monday, finishing with 10 points. Graves has targeted Sami since then and it comes to a head this weekend at the Survival Trails Finals show. We go to commentary, where Rich Brennan, Jason Albert and Alex Riley introduce things. They announce that Graves will be competing in a non-title match against Evan Bourne in our main event! Plus, we will hear from Finn Balor and Hideo Itami about their plans now that Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd are in the rearview mirror.
CJ PARKER VS. TYLER BREEZE; We haven’t seen much of Tyler Breeze in recent weeks, though he appeared last week to remind everyone that he’s around, despite their love for the new “flavors of the month”. The crowd wasn’t completely sure who to cheer for, since both guys play the heel role. They didn’t have to wonder for long though, as Breeze nailed Parker with the Beauty Shot to win. Tyler Breeze defeated CJ Parker in 4:23!“Prince Pretty” has returned and done so in successful fashion. Considering the rise that he was on before his hiatus, one has to assume that the NXT Championship is something that he has his sights set on. Tyler Breeze makes sure to take a selfie, complete with a laid out Parker in the shot, before leaving.
An advertisement is shown to promote the brand new John Cena Rivalries DVD. Get the multi-disc set that will cover all of the biggest rivalries involving the fourteen time World Champion, including wars with the Rock, Edge, CM Punk, Triple H and more! Returning backstage, Renee Young is standing by with the number one contender for the NXT Championship, Sami Zayn. He politely says hello before Renee asks him about the upcoming title match. Sami says that he’s never been more prepared for a match in his life. “These past few weeks of the Survival Trials have shown me that not only am I good enough to compete with the best, but I’m damn sure good enough to finally become the NXT Champion. I’ll be watching Corey Graves in the main tonight and this Sunday, you’ll be looking at the new champion.”
A commercial is shown for WWE 2K15. For the first time ever, play as your favorite WWE Superstars, Divas and Legends on the current generation of video game systems! Before the next match, we are shown a plug for the latest issue of Muscle and Fitness magazine, which features an article giving a special look at the WWE Performance Center.
ALEXA BLISS AND SASHA BANKS VS. BAYLEY AND BECKY LYNCH; Last week, Alexa Bliss seemed to snap and shoved Bayley after losing to her. She partnered up with the NXT Women’s’ Champion herself, Sasha Banks. Bayley and Becky Lynch played nice, but commentary informed the viewers that they will meet next week in a number one contender’s match. Sasha and Alexa worked as a good tandem, though it was clear that Sasha was playing the leader. Bayley found herself in trouble until she dragged herself to the corner and tagged in Becky. She cleaned house and applied the Dis-Arm-Her on Bliss. Sasha watched from the apron but chose not to save her partner, who tapped out. Bayley and Becky Lynch defeated Alexa Bliss and Sasha Banks in 8:14!Sasha Banks grabs her title from ringside and slowly backs up the ramp. Bayley hugs Becky Lynch in celebration before remembering their upcoming match and backing away. They look across at each other while Sasha Banks watches them from the top of the stage, clutching her title tightly.
A video shot by Colin Cassady is shown. Himself, Enzo Amore and Carmella at the gym. Enzo tries to impress her with his push-ups. “Uh, Zo, I’m pretty sure Carmella needs more than that. She could probably do more push-ups than you.” Enzo looks at Cass as if to say “really bro?” “Oh I know I can do more than him. Watch” says Carmella. She gets down and does push-ups side by side with Enzo, matching him at each turn. “How about some of this? How you doing?” says Enzo as he moves to one armed push-ups. Carmella one ups him by doing claps in between each push-up and outlasting Enzo, who falls to the ground, dripping with sweat. She runs up to Cass and leaps into a high five while Enzo watches in shame.
An ad runs to promote the WWE Network. Various Superstars and Divas throughout history are shown while words from the final promo by the Ultimate Warrior are heard. Once again, we go to Renee Young in the back. This time, she is with Hideo Itami. Renee mentions that he and Finn Balor requested time tonight to discuss their futures. Hideo, still not speaking full English, says that he came to NXT for one thing. “I want to be NXT Champion.” Before he is able to continue though, he is struck from out of nowhere with a huge superkick! Tyler Breeze steps into the shot, while Renee Young scurries off. Tyler smirks at Hideo and simply says “oops” before walking off screen.
NON-TITLE MATCH: COREY GRAVES VS. EVAN BOURNE; Since his return to NXT a few months back, Evan Bourne has certainly had his ups and down. He was looking to pick up his biggest win since the return. Corey Graves held serve for most of the match, targeting Bourne’s legs. It came into play when Evan tried for Airbourne but his legs gave way and he crashed to the mat. Graves found himself in firm control and applied Lucky 13 but Evan crawled to the ropes, breaking it. Despite this, Corey chose to shout to the camera “THIS IS YOUR FUTURE SAMI!” He took his eye off of the ball for a split second, freeing up Bourne to school boy him and score the upset. Evan Bourne defeated Corey Graves in 10:30!As quickly as he can, Evan Bourne slides out of the ring while the crowd pops. Corey Graves is in utter disbelief as he just let a match slip through his fingers. While Sami Zayn lost his final Survival Trials match, he is riding a wave of momentum from that experience, but Graves will now enter their big match coming off of a tough defeat.
Before the final segment, a commercial is shown for the latest WWE Film, See No Evil 2! Kane returns as Jacob Goodnight to bring fear to your home. William Regal is shown in his office. He address the camera, making a major announcement. “Beginning next week, a tournament will begin to find new number one contenders for Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn. The winners of this eight team tournament will face the NXT Tag Team Champions at our next TakeOver special.”
The crowd comes alive as Finn Balor makes his way down to the ring. He enters and grabs a microphone, allowing the crowd to calm down before speaking. “You know, I made it a point to come out here and talk about my future in NXT. Hideo Itami tried to do the same thing but was attacked by Tyler Breeze. Rest assured, Hideo has told me that Tyler will get what’s coming to him. Because of that assault, I chose to discuss this live, right in front of each and every one of you.” Finn continues, saying that he was able to hear Hideo say that the NXT Title was in his plans, but he’s here to say that is also his plan. “However, I understand the pecking order around here. I know that Sami Zayn has a title shot and we all just saw Evan Bourne pin Corey Graves so I’d say he’s ahead of me right now as well. Look, I came to NXT to prove to everyone that I am the best in the world. I’m going to earn everything and make my climb up the ladder of success here in NXT.” Finn says that he’s out here to make a challenge but the lights begin to flicker in the arena. The tron feed seems to get intercepted and then everything goes dark. “We apologize ladies and gentlemen, we are going to do our best to get things situated for you all” says Tom Phillips. Suddenly, a bang is heard as if something is going on in the ring. A few moments later, the lights come back on and Finn Balor is out cold in the middle of the ring. The crowd is somewhat confused but things become clear as a skull appears on the tron. On the top of the skull’s head is a head of hair that looks very familiar. The letters “S” and “C” appear on the skull’s forehead on top of each other. It’s a logo that has come to be known to represent Solomon Crowe.
