Tyler Breeze has been on quite the roll here in NXT...I mean here he is again winning yet another match beating CJ Parker I mean if anyone is a serious threat in the NXT Championship picture it is probably Tyler Breeze given that he just keeps winning and winning
A John Cena Rivalries DVD...now this is a first I wonder if we will get interviews on the DVD from his rivals but also get a list of all of those matches on that same DVD?
Sami Zayn even though he didn't go to the finals of Survival Trials I mean he is still one half of the NXT Tag Team Champions and he is also the #1 Contender for the NXT Championship so Zayn even though he didn't make it all the way he proved that he has not only what it takes to be on the main roster but also that he can hang in there with the best of them because Survival Trials taught him a lot but will he will use that experience to transition into becoming NXT Champion when he has to face the NXT Champion Corey Graves for the NXT Championship at the Survival Trials live special?
Sting is in the WWE 2K15 video game so I wonder if that will transition into Sting showing up in WWE soon? I mean he has to it only makes sense
Performance Center being set up too I love it
Becky Lynch and Bayley beating the NXT Women's Champion Sasha Banks and Alexa Bliss I mean how could Becky and Bayley peacefully co-exist given the fact that they are facing each other to determine who the next #1 Contender will be for the NXT Championship? I am surprised that these 2 didn't turn on each other or that Sasha wouldn't try to take advantage of that but Sasha leaving her partner Bliss to fend for herself I mean classic heel move if I ever saw one but at the same time it is obvious that Sasha wanted no part of Becky or Bayley...but I can see it now...a Triple Threat Match for the NXT Women's Championship between Bayley, Sasha Banks and Becky Lynch with Sasha having to defend her title against both girls
Enzo, Big Cass and Carmella I just love the 3 of them together I really do and I can't wait to see them show up here in NXT...I really can't because God knows that the NXT Tag Team division could use some shaking up
The WWE Network I really can't wait for that too
Hideo Itami being attacked by Tyler Breeze I mean it is safe to assume that a new rivalry has just been forged here...well I wonder why Finn Balor didn't get involved or try to help Hideo in any way while he got superkicked?
Evan Bourne beating the NXT Champion Corey Graves can't really be considered an upset considering Bourne is a veteran in WWE he has been on the main roster before for quite a while actually and him being demoted to NXT has actually helped his career more than it has hindered it but even so him beating the NXT Champion does wonders for him because it at least gets him into the discussion as far as the NXT Championship goes...Corey Graves' arrogance his overconfidence got the better of him and Bourne took advantage because Zayn is in Graves' head
A NXT Tag Team #1 Contender's Tournament...to determine the next #1 Contenders for the NXT Tag Team Championships I think that that's a great idea
And Finn Balor being attacked to end NXT...by none other than Solomon Crowe I mean that is shocking in of it itself but still I just never expected that

 Friday Night Smackdown: November 7th, 2014 – Times Union Center in Albany, New York
Smackdown comes onto the air as Tom Phillips, Booker T and Byron Saxton introduce things. They hype tonight as one of the most important Smackdown episodes in history because of the huge implications in the main event. John Cena goes one on one with Seth Rollins. If Cena wins, he advances to the finals of the Survival Trials. However, if Cena loses, Roman Reigns clinches the spot and takes on Cody Rhodes this Sunday. The stakes have literally never been higher!
SURVIVAL TRIALS – ADRIAN NEVILLE (6) VS. ALBERTO DEL RIO (10); The second to last Survival Trials match here. While it didn’t ultimately mean anything in the standings, both guys came out looking for the win. Alberto Del Rio wanted momentum heading into his big US Title match this Sunday. Adrian Neville was still nursing the knee injury from his match at Hell in a Cell against the Miz. Del Rio attacked that body part instead of going after the arm like he normally does. It worked as Neville was unable to do a lot of his key stuff, freeing up Del Rio to hit a vicious superkick for the 1-2-3. Alberto Del Rio defeated Adrian Neville in 9:01!As the Survival Trials come to a close, Alberto Del Rio finishes with a 6-5 record, made more impressive considering he began 0-4. Adrian Neville’s loss here drops him to 3-7 as he ran into a lot of trouble after his knee got messed up. Del Rio exited and left to the back while the official checked on Neville’s leg. “AWEEEESOOOOMEEE”. The Miz and Summer Rae walk down to the ring. Miz has a microphone in hand and begins to mock Neville. He says that Neville should have just taken his advice. “I told you that an A-lister like myself could make you into a star. Instead, you find yourself hobbled on just one leg and suffering loss after loss.” Miz makes it into the ring and continues to berate Neville, who is now up to his feet though assisted by the official. “This is your present and your future Adrian. Just accept my help. Your career can…” Neville uses all of his strength to spin kick Miz in the ribs. Miz falls to the ground but Neville is too hurt to capitalize, allowing Miz to get up and attack him. Miz stomps away on Neville, with Summer Rae chipping in with her own shots. Miz picks him up and drops him with the Skull Crushing Finale before shouting that Neville is nothing without him.
Now we are taken to a recap of the despicable attack by Bray Wyatt and the Wyatt Family against the COO of this company, Triple H on Raw. Triple H was looking for some vengeance for his father-in-law but instead got destroyed while his wife, Stephanie McMahon, seemed to show little to no care. Speaking of Stephanie McMahon, she is in the ring when we return to live action, along with the Director of Operations, Kane. She starts by saying that her Twitter account got flooded after the attack on Triple H. “First, many of you in the WWE Universe questioned my loyalty to my husband. I didn’t respond to any of you because, let’s face it, none of you are really worth it the time it takes to tweet you. Right now though, I’ll let you know that my loyalty to my husband should never be in doubt. However, I’m just as loyal to the WWE. That’s where my focus is right now. My husband has taken his fair share of beatings in his career and so has my father. Guess what? They always get right back up. The WWE is something that I’m more worried about. We’ve had to endure someone like Daniel Bryan as the WWE Champion and now one half of the Tag Team Champions, the return of the insubordinate CM Punk, the Shield thinking they’re bigger than the business, John Cena’s general awfulness and a lot more. There is only one person ruthless enough to save the WWE. One person cunning enough. One person that has this business in her blood. That person…is me. You all thought the Authority was in trouble after what happened to Triple H but just look back to the end of Raw. We stood tall as a united front over the fallen bodies of CM Punk and Daniel Bryan. The Authority is going to take back control of the WWE and it started last Monday night. Make no mistake, I’m the head bitch in charge and don’t any of you, or anyone in the back, forget it.”
EVA MARIE VS. NAOMI; The incredibly green Total Divas star looked to take on one of the veterans of the Divas division in Naomi. During this match, Naomi’s rival and former partner, Cameron joined commentary. Meanwhile, the Bella Twins surprisingly strolled down to the ring, seemingly taking notes on the match. As Naomi neared a win, a distraction from Brie stopped her in her tracks. Eva sloppily rolled Naomi up to steal it. Eva Marie defeated Naomi in 2:31!The Bella Twins mock a stunned Naomi by making the “loser” symbol on their foreheads. Eva Marie stands by them in celebration and they are even joined by Cameron, who completely enjoys seeing her former friend in defeat. If there is any sort of alliance being formed by the women outside, Naomi is going to need some help.
A recap is shown of Rey Mysterio’s return this past Monday night. Mysterio announced that he will be retiring officially at the Survivor Series and his final match will be against Alberto Del Rio. They were interrupted by Tyson Kidd before a returning Cesaro joined him and attacked Mysterio and Del Rio. REY MYSTERIO VS. TYSON KID W/ CESARO AND NATALYA; Considering Tyson Kidd being the one person who came to visit Cesaro in the hospital, the two men seem to have bonded. They walked to the ring and were thick as thieves. Rey Mysterio got his first in-ring action since his return and didn’t show much ring rust. He moved around rather quickly and took it to Kidd like he hadn’t missed a day. A trip by Cesaro allowed Kidd to gain control, where he went after Rey’s leg. Rey was still able to put up a fight, rallying to pick up near falls. He ran off the ropes for the 619 but Cesaro slid into the ring and leveled him with a huge uppercut. Rey Mysterio defeated Tyson Kidd via disqualification in 10:17!Tyson Kidd gets off of the ropes and helps Cesaro put the boots to Rey Mysterio. Natalya doesn’t seem too happy with their actions but also doesn’t protest. Alberto Del Rio runs out to a pop with a steel chair, causing Kidd and Cesaro to decide to fight another day and exit the ring. Del Rio checks on his friend but the damage has been done.
When we return, the ring is set up for the Peep Show. Christian walks down to the ring, looking for his peeps in the crowd. He gets in the ring and talks about bringing back the Peep Show, saying that it’s been a while. “I wanted to bring it back because coming back is exactly what I’m trying to do. You see, a few months ago, I held the United States Title and now, I can barely find my way onto Raw and Smackdown.” Christian says that he’s trying to come back to relevancy and capture some gold. He tried on Monday but came up short in the Showoff Open Invitational. His guest is the man that defeated him, Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler comes out to an even louder ovation from the crowd. When he enters the ring, he shakes hands with Christian. Christian’s first question is to ask about the meaning behind the open challenges. Dolph claims that he does it because it fits who he is. “For years, I’ve told everyone time after time that I’m here to steal the show and have the best matches week in and week out. Growing up, that’s what the Intercontinental Title meant to me. Putting on the best show whenever I step into the ring. I want to defend this title against any and all possible contenders while being better than everyone else.” Christian seems a little annoyed considering he just lost to Dolph, but moves on to the subject of Alexander Rusev, who called him out on Monday for not being as good a champion as he is. Dolph begins to answer but is cut off by the sound of Lana’s voice. She steps onto the stage, laughing at Dolph’s claims about being better than everyone else. “You do realize that you are a multi-time Intercontinental Champion and that you’ve held and lost the United States Title this year. That doesn’t make you the best. That makes you a loser. Do you know who hasn’t lost a title? Do you know who hasn’t lost a single match? My ‘Super Athlete’ Rusev!” Dolph tells her to get on with the reason she’s out here. She says that he is out here to issue a challenge. “If you want to prove that you are the best, you will face my Rusev next week on Smackdown. He doesn’t request a shot at your title and you don’t deserve one at his.” Dolph accepts and tells her to prepare to handle the first loss of Rusev’s career.
The Age of Enlightenment are shown backstage reading two large books. Eden comes up to them and asks them about their plans. “You two paired up as a tag team and promised to educate the masses but we haven’t seen you in the ring recently” she adds. Damien Sandow looks at her in confusion and disgust. Xavier Woods tells her that they are biding their time right now, but the Tag Team Titles are still something they want. Sandow cuts him off and says not to tell her any of their plan before going back to reading. Woods is taken aback and doesn’t seem happy with the tone of Damien but he goes back to reading as well.
BIG SHOW AND BO DALLAS VS. LOS MATADORES W/ EL TORITO; The tandem of Big Show and Bo Dallas once again showed great chemistry. Bo had some troubles with Diego and Fernando, though things quickly changed when the Big Show tagged in. He cleaned house and put down Fernando via WMD. Big Show and Bo Dallas defeated Los Matadores in 3:27!Bo Dallas immediately celebrates by rolling outside and going for a victory lap. This once again seems to amuse Big Show. Bo runs into El Torito and gets tripped up. An embarrassed and angry Bo grabs Torito and rolls him inside. The smile on Big Show’s face vanishes as he helps Torito to his little feet, before viciously knocking him out with a WMD! Bo Dallas looks down at Torito with an angry face that turns back to his cheesy grin. He slaps Show on the back and they head off.
Tom Phillips now leads us through a recap of the Survival Trials. Footage is shown of Cody Rhodes’ victory over Sami Zayn on Raw, capping his incredible run through the tournament and clinching a spot in the finals this Sunday. His opponent is yet to be determined because Roman Reigns fell at the hands of his Shield brother, Dean Ambrose. Tonight, it all comes down to John Cena. If he wins, he advances, but if he loses, Reigns gets the final spot. Renee Young is now standing by with Cody Rhodes. She asks him about his preference for an opponent in the Survival Trials Finals. Cody responds by saying there is no easy answer. “On the one hand, I could face the juggernaut of the most dominant faction in WWE history. On the other, I face a fourteen time World Champion. Either way, one thing remains the same. I beat both of them so far and I’m gonna do it again this Sunday.”
BIG E VS. GOLDUST; We haven’t seen much of Goldust since his lost to his brother inside of a Steel Cage two months ago. Since then though, he hasn’t lost his ruthless streak as he attacked Big E early and often. Big E is no slouch though, coming back and using his incredible strength to overpower Goldust. He planted him with the Big Ending and picked up the win. Big E defeated Goldust in 3:25!The straps are down and Big E has his hand raised by the official. While he was unable to unseat Dolph Ziggler for the Intercontinental Title recently, there is still gold in the eyes of the former power lifter.
An ad airs to promote WWE 2K15, where you can play as WCW legend Sting for the very first time in history! Backstage, Renee Young is with Roman Reigns. The crowd cheers as he steps into the picture. Renee asks for his thoughts as he has to sit back and hope Seth Rollins comes through for him in a few minutes. Reigns responds by saying that it sucks that he lost on Monday and has to rely on someone else. “Nothing against Dean Ambrose. He beat me fair and square. While I don’t have control of my own destiny, I have full confidence in my brother that he can beat John Cena tonight. Then it’s on to Cody Rhodes this Sunday and then, I’m coming for you Brock. Believe that.”
Commentary runs down hype for the Survival Trials Finals show this weekend, exclusively on the WWE Network. Cody Rhodes will compete in the Finals against either John Cena or Roman Reigns. Alberto Del Rio gets his rematch at Alexander Rusev and the United States Championship. Sami Zayn, who wowed during the Survival Trials, competes for the NXT Championship. Paige defends the WWE Women’s Championship against her friend Emma and more to be announced tomorrow.
SURVIVAL TRIALS – JOHN CENA (16) VS. SETH ROLLINS (10); There was a big fight feel in the atmosphere for this. This was arguably the biggest match on Smackdown in at least five years. Both men started slow, not trying to make a mistake. After knocking Cena to the outside, it was Seth that took the first big chance on a huge dive outside, which worked out. He picked up several near falls that the crowd bit on but John Cena is always so resilient. Seth made a key mistake when he springboarded in with a knee, only for Cena to dodge it and catch the leg right into the STF! The crowd went nuts as Seth struggled and nearly tapped before reaching the ropes. Cena went for the Attitude Adjustment, but Seth landed on his feet and hit a big Pele kick. Cena stumbled to the ropes and hunched over. Seth saw an opening and tried for the Curb Stomp but Cena slightly moved enough to get under Seth and hook him for the AA, which he connected on. The referee counted the three and Cena advanced. John Cena defeated Seth Rollins in 15:33!The WWE Universe erupts with the usual mixed reaction as John Cena gets to his feet and pumps his fist. He got an opening on Monday when Roman Reigns lost and took full advantage tonight, reaching the first ever Survival Trials Finals! “In two nights, John Cena goes one on one with Cody Rhodes in a rematch from Hell in a Cell with a shot at Brock Lesnar on the line” exclaims Tom Phillips. John Cena continues to celebrate as Smackdown goes off the air.

Del Rio beating Adrian Neville in each man's respective final Survival Trials match with Del Rio finishing with a 6-5 record while Neville finishes off with a 3-7 record I mean Neville he has more or less underachieved in this tournament while Del Rio saves face pretty much after starting off the tournament with an 0-4 record he finishes with a 6-5 record I mean that isn't bad but still neither man is in contention for the Survival Trials final but I wonder what either man does from here on out to gain momentum?
Neville being attacked post-match by The Miz and Summer Rae...I mean it seems that we almost knew that this feud would continue and now that it is no doubt that these 2 face off either at the Survival Trials live special on Sunday or they face off at Survivor Series but either way I can't wait for these 2 to go at it
It seems Stephanie she isn't too concerned about her husband Triple H even after he was taken out by The Wyatt Family or even concerned in the least about her father Vince...but it seems that The Authority are at full strength again well especially now that Stephanie has pretty much usurped leadership of this stable but how long will that really last?
Eva Marie beating Naomi in an upset I mean I definitely was expecting Naomi to beat Eva Marie but at the same time Naomi was distracted not only by The Bella Twins but also by her former tag team partner Cameron of The Funkadactyls but then post-match seeing The Bella Twins, Cameron and Eva Marie all together I am like this is going to lead up to a Traditional 5 on 5 Divas Survivor Series Elimination Tag Team Match at Survivor Series with it being Team Bella vs Team Naomi that is what I think is going to happen anyway that Team Bella is somehow going to get a 5th woman on their team while Naomi is going to end up getting 5 divas of her own to team with her that is what I think anyway
Rey Mysterio in his return match he beats Tyson Kidd all be it by DQ because of Cesaro getting in and attacking Rey only for Kidd to join in and Natalya not doing anything about it I mean what could Natalya do? Tyson is her husband after all but then seeing Del Rio show up to even the odds saving Rey from another beatdown courtesy of Cesaro & Kidd I mean it makes sense but at the same time Del Rio he and Rey are facing each other at Survivor Series in Rey Mysterio's last match so I have to wonder why Del Rio would save Rey
Champion vs Champion on RAW this Monday...the WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler facing off against the WWE United States Champion Rusev...I mean this is a match that I am looking forward to and why? Because not only is it champion vs champion but at the same time bragging rights more or less are at stake here in this match this match will basically prove just who is the more superior champion out of the 2 of them but at the same time Rusev he hasn't been pinned or he hasn't been made to submit he is undefeated so what makes Ziggler think he stands any chance? Christian being annoyed with Ziggler on The Peep Show I was wondering if that was a sign of a Christian heel turn? I mean what has Christian done lately? He hasn't been relevant since when? He hasn't been relevant for a very long time now
The Age of Enlightenment I mean how much longer can they really last as a team I mean seriously? When is the last time either of them were really relevant?
Big Show and Bo Dallas beating yet another team that being Los Matadores...that has to put them in the conversation or at least in the hunt to become #1 Contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championships and who are the WWE Tag Team Champions right now? None other than Daniel Bryan and CM Punk but at the same time Big Show knocking out El Torito with a WMD...no one gets up from that but Torito after that Knockout Punch I wonder if that is the last time we will ever see El Torito? A guy of Big Show's size and strength knocking someone like El Torito out like come on...and Bo Dallas since he has teamed with Big Show he has managed to become less of a joke
Cody Rhodes seems confident...I mean he has had a miracle run a Cinderella run in Survival Trials his entire run has been predicated on nothing but luck predicated on being nothing more than being the right guy at the right place but for Rhodes it is definitely the wrong time because Rhodes even if he manages to win Survival Trials and that is a very very big if but he manages to pull off the upset of a lifetime he will have to face The Beast Incarnate The Conqueror The One in 21-1 the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar...the man who will forever be known as the man who ended The Undertaker's 21-0 undefeated streak at WrestleMania 30 the man who destroyed both John Cena and Daniel Bryan at SummerSlam in order to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion a man who destroyed CM Punk at Night of Champions I mean what makes Rhodes think he would stand any chance at all against Brock especially if he were to win Survival Trials and go on to Survivor Series to face Brock for the title? Rhodes would get taken to Suplex City in a heartbeat
But as for who I think Cody faces this Saturday? I see him facing Cena in a rematch from Hell in a Cell in the Survival Trials final this Sunday...I don't know why but I mean I just see it happening again
Big E beating Goldust...I mean Big E more or less since his return he has gained momentum he has been so dominant and I have to wonder if Big E will set his sights back on the WWE Intercontinental Championship? Or if he will decide to switch his efforts and decide to go after the WWE United States Championship? As for Goldust I mean he hasn't been relevant since that feud with his brother Cody...I mean what has he done since then? Pretty much nothing so it begs the question of where Heel Goldust goes from here?
I sure hope we get to see The Vigilante The Icon Sting in a WWE ring soon...I sure hope so considering Sting is in the WWE 2K15 video game
Reigns I mean his Survival Trials fate is out of his hands because he has to pretty much depend on his Shield brother Seth Rollins to get the job done and beat John Cena in the main event in order for Reigns to go on to the Survival Trials final on Sunday to face Cody who is already in the final but if Cena wins then Reigns is gone
Cena in the main event beats Rollins to move on to the Survival Trials finals...Cena ending off with a 9-2 record identical to Rhodes' 9-2 record...so it looks like I was right Cena and Rhodes will face off in the final of Survival Trials this Sunday...their match at the Hell in a Cell PPV during Survival Trials was a classic so to see it happen again a second time...Cena/Rhodes II this Sunday if their second match is anything like their first match then I think we're in for a treat on Sunday...because the winner of that goes on to Survivor Series to face Brock Lesnar for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship so who am I rooting for in this match? Simple I am looking for Cena to beat Rhodes to win Survival Trials and then he goes on to Survivor Series to face Lesnar in order to look for redemption considering it was Lesnar who manhandled Cena like he has never been manhandled like before in his career...but if Rhodes/Lesnar happens I don't see how Rhodes realistically stands a chance against Brock

 Survival Trials Finals: November 9th, 2014 - Capital FM Arena in Nottingham, England
Theme Song: "Survival" by Eminem
The WWE Signature appears on the screen, signaling the start of the official WWE Network special. A short intro video plays, set to “Survival” by Eminem and showcasing the impressive runs through the Survival Trials Tournament by John Cena and Cody Rhodes. The sold out crowd in Nottingham is rocking as Michael Cole and Byron Saxton welcome the viewers at home to this historic show. They send it straight to the action, which starts with championship gold on the line.
 NXT CHAMPIONSHIP – COREY GRAVES (C) VS. SAMI ZAYN; The English fans seem to really be into Sami Zayn, giving him a major pop as he comes face to face with the NXT Champion. Corey Graves is clearly talking smack to Sami, who responds with a right hand and they fight into the corner. Sami reluctantly gives a clean break, so Corey reaches forward and slaps him. An irate Sami charges but Corey steps outside for a breather, clearly doing his best to get under the challenger’s skin. Corey breaks the count but rolls back out, so Sami comes off the ropes and dives over the top onto the champion! Once back inside, Sami gets some near fall, but Graves chop blocks him to stop the momentum. The leg now becomes the focus of Corey’s offense, as he just relentlessly goes after it for minutes. Sami tries to valiantly fight back but stumbles several times. Tom Phillips notes that the leg being targeted is the one that Sami uses for the Helluva Kick. Sami does manage to snap off the Blue Thunder Bomb but Graves gets a shoulder up. In a clear mistake, Sami calls for the Helluva Kick. He charges in but his leg gives way before he gets near Corey. Like a shark smelling blood, Corey pounces and locks in Lucky 13! It’s the move that Sami tapped out to way back at TakeOver earlier this year. Sami struggles to reach for the ropes, refusing to submit despite the pain. Corey wrenches harder and harder but the resilient Zayn grasps the ropes by his fingertips. Graves isn’t even angry, seemingly laughing at Sami’s futile attempts to survive. He drags Sami to the middle of the ring and grabs the leg again, but Sami pulls him into in a small package for two. As they get up, Corey takes a swing but Sami ducks and catches him in the Koji Clutch! The pain on Corey Graves’ face is clear as he struggles for the ropes but is too far away. He begins to fade and is forced to tap out. Sami Zayn defeats Corey Graves to win the NXT Championship in 16:20!The crowd roars as Sami Zayn has done it! “Sami Zayn has been after the NXT Championship since his debut last year and, after several attempts, he’s finally captured it” says Michael Cole. Sami Zayn is handed both the NXT Title and his NXT Tag Team Title. He celebrates along with the crowd, capping a great run in the Survival Trials with the biggest win of his career!
WWE UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP – ALEXANDER RUSEV (C) W/ LANA VS. ALBERTO DEL RIO; It’s a rematch from Hell in a Cell. Alberto Del Rio comes in with a similar strategy from that night, going after the arm of Alexander Rusev. His Cross Armbreaker has been completely unstoppable whenever he’s able to actually latch it on. He attempts it early but Rusev has it scouted and shoves him off each time. Del Rio comes off the ropes only to get caught in a swinging side slam for two. Rusev proves to be as dominant as ever, hitting vicious knee lifts and headbutts that send Del Rio reeling. Rusev climbs to the second rope and dives off for a big headbutt but Del Rio rolls away, causing him to crash to the mat. As he gets to his knees, Del Rio fires off a series of kicks to the arm, again softening him up for his finish. He finishes with one big kick to the skull and covers Rusev but only manages a near fall. Lana seems to losing confidence in her “Super Athlete” at ringside. She shouts for him to get up as Del Rio stalks him. The “Mexican Aristocrat” manages to completely apply the Cross Armbreaker! Commentary shouts that this could be all. Rusev struggles in agony as nobody has been able to break this in months. Rusev somehow musters up the strength to get to his feet, lift Del Rio’s body and slam it down to the ground in a powerbomb, breaking his grip. Del Rio staggers to his feet and Rusev picks him up with a Samoan drop. Rusev then steps on Del Rio’s back and goes for the Accolade. Del Rio slips under and hits an enziguri to the back of the head. He covers but Rusev somehow gets his shoulder up. Del Rio taps his arm for another submission but Rusev shoves him off to the ropes. As Del Rio bounces off, Rusev catches him with a shuffle side kick, which is enough to score the win. Alexander Rusev defeats Alberto Del Rio to retain the WWE United States Championship in 7:03!The referee hands Lana the United States Title as she enters and hoists it in the air. Alexander Rusev gets to his feet and pumps his fists next to her. Alberto Del Rio rolls out of the ring holding his jaw as once again, Rusev proves to be too much for him to overcome.
 WWE WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP – PAIGE (C) VS. EMMA; The best friends shake hands and give a quick hug before the match officially begins. They tie up and Paige shoves Emma to the mat. Emma gives a small smirk, tries again, but is again tossed down. Cracks of frustration begin to show as Emma gets taken down a third time. Paige nearly does it for a fourth time but Emma slips behind her and takes her down to the mat. They trade mat work with the crowd firmly behind the home country girl, Paige. Paige made sure to sport boots bearing the Union Jack on them. Emma scores multiple near falls on various pinning combinations, getting the upper hand. That all stops when Paige kicks her in the stomach and tries for the Paige Turner. Emma elbows her way out of it and sends Paige into the corner. She charges in with a clothesline before applying the Dil-Emma. Paige falls to the bottom of the corner as Emma looks for the Emmamite Sandwich. Paige slides outside, causing Emma to miss. Paige pulls Emma by her legs outside and swings her into the guardrail. She rolls Emma inside for two. Paige lets out a loud roar as she grabs Emma and fires away with headbutts. Emma stumbles to the corner, where Paige reels off tons of stomps like her idol, Steve Austin. She tries for the Ram-Paige this time but again, Emma gets free and trips her up into the Emma Lock! Paige desperately reaches for the ropes but is too far away. Refusing to quit in front of her home country, Paige somehow finds a way to pry Emma’s grip and break the hold. Emma is in disbelief but regroups and climbs to the top rope. As Paige gets to her feet, Emma flies off with a cross body. Paige rolls through into a pin, gets the three and retains. Paige defeats Emma to retain the WWE Women’s Championship in 10:41!The fans give a round of applause to Paige, who found a way to remain the Women’s Champion. Emma can’t believe that she just let a huge opportunity slip through her fingers. Paige is handed the Women’s Title and raises it as the crowd cheers. She looks over to her friend, drenched in sweat and nearly in tears, and offers a handshake. The fans want it and Emma accepts even though her quest for the title came up short tonight. Paige goes to leave but Emma grabs her by the hair and slams her down to the mat. The stunned crowd begins to boo as Emma picks up her friend, shouts “THAT’S MY TITLE” and nails her with a double underhook suplex into the corner. Paige falls on her head but Emma doesn’t care. She picks up the Women’s Title, drapes it over Paige, and exits to boos.
BAD NEWS BARRETT, THE MIZ AND SHEAMUS W/ SUMMER RAE VS. THE SHIELD; You can tell that the two Authority members are not big fans of their partner tonight. They have the Miz start against Dean Ambrose. Ambrose gets the quick upper hand, tagging in his partners, who all work on Miz. Miz sneaks in a low blow on Seth Rollins, swinging the momentum. He tags in a reluctant Mr. Money in the Bank, Bad News Barrett, who clubs away on Seth. He tags in and out with Sheamus, as they work over the “Architect”, while mostly ignoring the Miz. Miz complains to Summer Rae at ringside. Seth scores on a Pele kick and dives to make the big tag to Roman Reigns. The man who came oh so close to the finals tonight comes in on fire. He nails Barrett with a Superman punch and hits a second that knocks Sheamus off the apron. Reigns calls for the Spear, but Barrett avoids it and tags Miz. Miz cautiously walks in, but some encouraging words at ringside from Summer Rae seem to build his confidence. He actually asks for a test of strength with Reigns. Reigns chuckles and goes for it. Miz goes for a cheap kick but Reigns is ready and catches it. As he does this, Rollins and Ambrose enter the ring, run past them and dive outside onto Sheamus and Barrett. Reigns shoves Miz back to the ropes, where he rebounds off and right into a Spear, scoring the pinfall. The Shield defeats Bad News Barrett, the Miz and Sheamus in 8:18!Cheers are heard from the Nottingham faithful as Roman Reigns stands up and lets out a roar. His Shield brothers join him in the ring. Once again, the Shield win a multi-man tag match, continuing to prove that there is nobody better in that situation. ”The New Age Outlaws. The Usos. The Wyatt Family. Evolution. The Authority. It doesn’t matter who you put in front of the Shield, they knock them all down” says JBL. The Shield pose in the center of the ring, putting their fists together in a sign of unity.
Before our main event, a video package airs focusing on the spectacular runs through the Survival Trials by both Cody Rhodes and John Cena. Cody only suffered two losses, to the Miz and Sheamus. Cena also only lost twice, once to Roman Reigns and once to Rhodes himself. That Hell in a Cell match is the focal point of the video, set to “Survival” by Eminem. Adding to the importance of the match, a “Tale of the Tape” appears on screen, noting that Cena has an experience and size advantage, but Cody is on a roll and has the mental upper hand from his previous win over Cena.  SURVIVAL TRIALS FINALS – CODY RHODES (18) VS. JOHN CENA (18); Just like their Hell in a Cell encounter, they enter tied in points. Unlike last time though, there is no handshake. The stakes are higher and both guys are prepared. Cody Rhodes takes John Cena to the mat, gaining an upper hand. There is no “good job kid” reaction on Cena’s face here though, as he gets up and shoves Cody hard enough to knock him outside. Cena holds the middle rope open, daring him to step back inside with him. Cody looks around, possibly realizing that this is a different Cena, and rolls inside. Once in, both guys trade some offense, with neither grabbing true control. Cena attempts the STF, but Cody blocks his hands from clasping and rolls into a pin for two. When they get up, Cody springboards off the middle rope for the Disaster Kick but Cena catches him with a massive sitout powerbomb for a near fall. Cena is clearly ready to reach deep into his bag of tricks. With Cody down, Cena does the Five Knuckle Shuffle and preps for the Attitude Adjustment. Cody grabs the top rope to block it, as even though he kicked out of one at Hell in a Cell, he isn’t going to risk it here. Cena decides to just send Cody over the top and to the outside. The referee begins to count as Cena seems content with a possible countout win. At the count of eight though, Cody is able to get back inside. Cena takes a risk, climbing to the top. He comes off with the leg drop bulldog, but Cody moves and Cena lands on his ass. Cody hits the second rope and nails the Disaster Kick. He follows with Cross Rhodes instantly and the crowd completely bites but Cena shockingly manages to get his foot on the bottom rope, breaking the pin! Cody can’t believe it. He was that close to a WWE Title shot. Reaching into his own bag of tricks now, Cody picks Cena up for the Alabama Slam he learned from Hardcore Holly nearly ten years ago. Cena rolls over, hooks the leg and locks in the STF! Near the middle of the ring, Cody is in serious danger. He begins to fade before doing the unthinkable and making his way towards the ropes, before finally reaching it. Cena gives no rest, trying for the AA again once Cody is up. Cody slips out and tries another Disaster Kick. Cena quickly runs to the ropes himself, avoiding the kick, spring boarding off the second rope on his own and right into a stunner! The crowd and announces are taken aback by the move. Cena nails the AA right after, picking up the 1-2-3. John Cena defeats Cody Rhodes in 19:25!A mixed reaction rains down from the WWE Universe in Nottingham. An exhausted John Cena rolls over onto his back for a few seconds before slowly standing up. He has his hand raised by the official as pyro goes off and the announcers talk about the hard fought win for Cena. He poses for the crowd while Cody Rhodes sits up and hangs his head in disappointment. John Cena walks over to him and offers his hand to help him up. Cody ponders it, looking out to the fans, before accepting it. He raises Cena’s arm and claps before leaving the ring. “Cody Rhodes’ incredible run through the tournament may be over, but he has opened a lot of eyes. The real story right now though is that John Cena has now guaranteed himself a date with Brock Lesnar at the Survivor Series!” says Michael Cole.

Survival Trials Live Special Review
- One half of the NXT Tag Team Champions Sami Zayn beating Corey Graves to become the new NXT Champion...so Zayn he's now a double champion well Zayn he was due for an NXT Championship reign sooner or later I mean he has been so white hot and not to mention during this feud he has had with Graves it has always been Graves with the upper hand so it was bound to happen one way or another but I think that this will lead to Zayn/Owens and why I say that? Because even though Zayn and Owens are one half of the NXT Tag Team Champions Owens will feel that the NXT Championship shot should have been his he will probably feel like the NXT Championship is his and it will be because of that that the jealousy factor will come into play and when it does...look for Owens to turn on his tag team partner and them losing the NXT Tag Team Championships and then Owens for turning on his partner will set his sights on Zayn's title I mean all the signs are practically staring us right in the face
- However, Graves he does have a rematch clause he is entitled to a rematch so it should be interesting to see just when he does actually get his rematch for the NXT Championship
- Rusev's undefeated streak continues...he retains his WWE United States Championship against Del Rio I mean was it ever even in doubt? I mean Del Rio he put up a good fight yes he did but he wasn't going to beat Rusev I mean come on...Rusev he has been on a tear ever since debuting in this diary I mean he won the first ever Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal in his debut and then he has been winning match after match but even so ever since becoming WWE United States Champion he has been even more dominating so it begs the question of just who will be the one to beat Rusev?
- Paige retaining her WWE Women's Championship beating her best friend Emma to retain the title I mean Paige ever since she has been WWE Women's Champion she has been seemingly getting better and better each and every title defense beating woman after woman I mean Emma she nearly came that close to ending Paige's title reign but she loses...her only shot at the title and she loses I mean Emma we all knew that she probably wouldn't win the title seeing as how too early it would be but still to see Emma turn heel post-match on Paige I mean it is safe to say that a new rivalry has just been started especially now that Emma has seemingly turned on her now ex best friend I see a rematch in the very near future between these 2 and if it happens it will happen at Survivor Series I guarantee it
- The Shield beating Sheamus, Mr. Money in the Bank Bad News Barrett and The Miz in 6 Man Tag Team action I mean The Shield once again proving just how much of a unit they are I mean they have virtually beaten them all haven't they? I mean it only begs the question of where Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose go from here as a group I mean The Shield basically proved once again that even though they have cracks in their group that when it matters they band together and find a way to win...any great makings of any group I mean they probably might be the best group in the WWE hands down whereas The Authority here I mean Sheamus and Barrett I am surprised that they didn't leave Miz all alone to fend for himself
- And in the main event Cena beats Rhodes in the Survival Trials final I mean I think we all knew that Cena was in all likelihood going to win this match and why? Because Rhodes already had a win over Cena so I thought to myself that if Cena doesn't get his win back at some point that it would hurt Cena's credibility but then again if Rhodes beat Cena again then it would have really have solidified Rhodes as an up and coming main event guy especially if he were to beat Cena twice but Rhodes he managed to hang in there with Cena yet again hell he had Cena beat but Cena once again proving that in big match situations you can't count him out
- Cena has a date with destiny but also a date with redemption considering he has the WWE World Heavyweight Champion Brock Lesnar in the main event at Survivor Series for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship...but then I wonder where that leaves Cody Rhodes as far as Survivor Series goes?

It's certainly been a while. Life has been keeping me busy. But I'm here to get back into the mix of things. Let's get into it.
Survival Trials Finals
Good move to have the NXT Championship kick off the show. Another good move to have Sami Zayn finally dethrone champion Corey Graves. I'm looking forward to see how this affects his friendship/partnership with Kevin Owens. I smell a feud brewing from this championship victory. Next up, we get the rematch with Alexander Rusev and Alberto Del Rio for the United States Championship. I figured Rusev would retain here. He had only recently won the title. It wouldn't have made sense for him to lose it back to Del Rio. So good move with that. Then we get Paige vs. Emma for the Women's Championship. This is the one match I was really intrigued by. Good to see Paige retain. But what happened after was excellent. We finally see Emma snap and turn heel on her best friend. It was going to happen eventually. The best friends turned enemies angle is cliche yet still effective. I love it and look forward to these two feuding. Next, we get the Shield taking on the team of Bad News Barrett, Sheamus and the Miz. It was nice to see the Shield win this one. But I wouldn't have been surprised to see the heels win due to some miscommunication with the Shield that eventually leads to a break-up. But it's good to see the Shield stand united...for now at least. Finally, we have the main event! Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena in the Survival Trials Finals for the right to face WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Brock Lesnar, at Survivor Series. Much like the previous match, it was a good move to see Cena win this one. Even though Rhodes had incredible momentum going into the match, I didn't see him winning this. However, this match has certainly raised Rhodes' stock in the company. I expect great things from him going forward, but he's not ready to face Lesnar for the title. So all in all, it was a great show! Looking forward to what happens next.

 Monday Night Raw: November 10th, 2014 – Echo Arena in Liverpool, England
Slightly more than 24 hours removed from the historic first ever Survival Trials Finals, a video package starts Raw that shows footage from the event. John Cena made history when he defeated Cody Rhodes to win the tournament and earn a shot at Brock Lesnar and the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series. Once that video wraps, Michael Cole, John “Bradshaw” Layfield and Jerry “the King” Lawler introduce the show and promise a huge show!
Kicking things off, the WWE Tag Team Champions arrived on the scene to a major ovation from the Liverpool faithful. CM Punk and Daniel Bryan weren’t as joyful or energetic as usual. We were taken to a recap of the ending to Raw last Monday, when Punk and Bryan were destroyed by all of the members of the Authority while Stephanie McMahon took pride in watching it happen. They got in the ring and Bryan went to speak but Punk stopped him and said that he got this. “Last Monday night, the Authority beat us down. Tonight, we’re back up. But this isn’t anything new. This has been going on for far too long. Ever since I called Stephanie ‘Vince’s idiot daughter’, the higher ups around here have had it out for me. Daniel meanwhile, had an entire eight or so months where the Authority just screwed him over time after time after time because he didn’t look the way they wanted him to. Hell, we both had to beat Triple H before he realized that things needed to change. Unfortunately, we can’t just beat Stephanie McMahon in a match so there has to be another way to settle this, once and for all.” Daniel Bryan spoke, saying that the reason they are out here is to put an end to all of this. He called out Stephanie and the crowd waited with anticipation. Her theme hit and she stepped onto the stage, but she wasn’t alone. Batista, Randy Orton, Bad News Barrett, Kane and Sheamus flanked her. Stephanie started by scolding them for having the audacity to call her out. “My last name is McMahon, I run this place and I make the decisions. I didn’t come out here because you asked, I’m here because this is my show and because I want this thing over with myself.” Punk cut right to the chase, telling Stephanie that they wanted a match. “One more match to end it all. Whatever match type you’d like, but when it’s over, one group wins and one group loses and we’re done.” Stephanie thought it over before saying she had an idea. “The Survivor Series is coming up in a few weeks. How about this? These five premiere athletes on one team and you on the opposite side.” Punk and Bryan quickly talked it over before Bryan said that a 5-on-2 situation is not what they’re looking for, but they’re in if it is a traditional Survivor Series match. This caused Stephanie to burst out in laughter. She laughed for a lot longer than she probably should before finally managing to get out that they can have their match. “Good luck finding three Superstars to join you against this incredible team behind me. I mean, this is the very cream of the…” “Sierra. Hotel. India. Echo. Lima. Delta. Shield.” The WWE Universe exploded as the Shield began to make their way down to the ring through the stands. Stephanie was no longer laughing as concern flashed across her face. Dean Ambrose, Seth Rollins and Roman Reigns entered the ring and stood across from Punk and Bryan. These men have had differences in the past but stayed peaceful here. Seth grabbed a microphone and told Punk and Bryan that they have their three partners. An outraged Stephanie let out a scream and said that she’s sick and tired of the damn Shield. “Fine, you can be their partners but when we win you three must disband. That’s right, no more Shield.” The fans booed but the Shield didn’t bat an eye. Bryan spoke, “It seems like that stipulation is fine with them, but let’s go all out there. We really want this to be the end of this war so let’s make it fair. If we win, the Authority must be the ones to disband.” That got the crowd to cheer but Stephanie waved it down, saying that will never happen. Punk was quick witted, and started to taunt Stephanie, saying her father, a true McMahon, would have accepted in a heartbeat. Stephanie got goaded into saying yes. “At Survivor Series, it comes to an end. One way or another, this is over dammit!” The crowd roared as the show went to commercial with a massive match made for Survivor Series.
Returning, the WWE Intercontinental Champion, Dolph Ziggler, is standing in the ring awaiting an answer to his now weekly open challenge. “FEED…ME…MORE” is heard as it looks like Ryback will be getting his first shot at the Intercontinental Title.
WWE INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPIONSHIP – DOLPH ZIGGLER (C) VS. RYBACK; This proved to be one of the toughest tests so far for the Intercontinental Champion. Similar to his encounter with former partner Big E, Dolph Ziggler had to fight from behind due to the power of the “Big Guy”. Ryback racked up more than a few near falls throughout. He countered Dolph’s sleeper with a backpack stunner and shouted “FINISH IT”. Before he could though, his former partner Curtis Axel ran in and chop blocked him. Ryback defeated Dolph Ziggler via disqualification in 10:20!
The relentless Curtis Axel continued the assault, stomping on the leg of Ryback. He wisely kept him on the mat, not wanting to fall victim to the power of Ryback. Dolph Ziggler got to his feet, but Axel pounced there too, laying him out with the Axehole. Curtis picked up the Intercontinental Title, adding his name to the long list of people gunning for the gold.
We were then taken to a video recap of the heinous attacks by Bray Wyatt and the Wyatt Family over the past number of weeks. First, they took out the owner of the company, Vince McMahon and, after Triple H tried to defend his father-in-law, he also felt the wrath. Following the video, Michael Cole informed the WWE Universe that Triple H is still at home recuperating and it would be some time before we saw him in action again. Tonight, Bray Wyatt finally explains his actions.
Backstage, Stephanie McMahon was shown pacing in the Authority’s office. She seemed unsure of the big Survivor Series match that was just made, but Batista and Randy Orton tried to reassure about the fact that she got in their heads. Stephanie seemed to gain confidence before saying, “let’s put their teamwork to the test. Tonight, how about the two of you, the two most dominant Superstars in the WWE, face two of their five? Let’s mix it up too. How about, Roman Reigns and CM Punk? Not the champions and not the Shield either.” Batista and Orton liked the sound of that as our main event is set.
CAMERON AND SUMMER RAE VS. NAOMI AND NATALYA; Recently, some of the Divas have been joining forces with the Survivor Series coming up. Just as this began, the Bella Twins and Eva Marie strolled out to watch things. They came right into play as Eva tripped up Naomi, allowing Cameron to score a rollup on her former partner. Cameron and Summer Rae defeat Naomi and Natalya in 2:50!
Summer Rae quickly entered the ring and put the boots to Naomi along with Cameron. Natalya attempted to help but was taken down by Eva Marie and the Bella Twins. Things looked very bleak for Natalya and Naomi until the music of AJ Lee hit and the crowd popped. AJ charged the ring and ducked a shot form Nikki before clotheslining Cameron and Summer over and outside. She also leveled Eva with a spin kick but the Bella Twins pounced. Natalya and Naomi got to their feet and sent the Bella Twins over the top and to the outside. The five women outside of the ring chose to retreat despite the numbers advantage. AJ Lee didn’t seem to want to join up with Naomi and Natalya, but has her issues with the Bella Twins.
Renee Young was shown standing by with Cody Rhodes. She questions him about coming so close to winning the Survival Trials and his next steps. Cody admitted that the loss was incredibly hard to bare, but he’s already looking ahead. Becoming WWE World Heavyweight Champion is still a goal and he claimed to get back on track tonight. The Shield, Daniel Bryan and CM Punk were shown in the back. They seemed to be arguing about who was really in charge. Tom Phillips cautiously stepped up to them to inform them that Stephanie McMahon had a message. “Mrs. McMahon would like to let you know that she has officially named you ‘Team Bryan’ for the Survivor Series match.” A stressed Bryan instantly closes his eyes, knowing this will only cause more problems. They continued to argue as the camera left them.
Back to the ring, the music of John Cena sounded as the new number one contender for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship ran out onto the stage. He spoke to the camera about a new era starting in the WWE before charging down. Once in the ring, Cena began to speak about the Survival Trials. “That tournament was the most grueling series of weeks I’ve ever had to endure in this ring. And before I get to the topic at hand, I just want to take a moment to give props and respect to Cody Rhodes. The kid came at me with everything he had and, not only did he beat me at Hell in a Cell, but he took me to my limit last night. When I win the WWE World Heavyweight Title at Survivor Series, I plan on giving the first shot to you.” The crowd cheered that but that quickly turned to a mixed reaction as the champ himself, Brock Lesnar’s music hit. He made his way to the ring with Paul Heyman by his side. As they stepped into the ring and across from Cena, Heyman grabbed a microphone. Brock never broke eye contact with Cena as Heyman began to talk. Heyman started by also congratulating Cena on his big victory at the Survival Trail Finals. “Last night, you won a great match. Last night, you made history. Last night, you defeated Cody Rhodes. You should be jumping for joy with pride. You deserve all of the admiration that you get. But you need to remember one thing. Cody Rhodes is not Brock Lesnar. The Survival Trials participants were not Brock Lesnar. The grueling months that you went through as part of the tournament is nothing compared to a match against Brock Lesnar. This is the Best Incarnate. The man that ended Daniel Bryan’s reign as WWE World Heavyweight Champion and the 1 in 21-1.” Heyman continued to put over Lesnar at length, while the Beast just stared down Cena. Once done, the crowd cheered and Cena responded. “Fine speech. But I’ve got a little bit of knowledge to drop on you and your big gorilla.” Brock didn’t take kindly to that and stepped forward but Heyman tried to keep them apart. Cena continued saying that he understands what he’s getting into at Survivor Series. “I told Daniel Bryan before SummerSlam. I know you Brock. I’ve faced you more than almost anyone in the back. But do you want to know why I’m not worried Paul? Think back. Remember Extreme Rules a few years ago? Brock returned, snarling and breathing heavy and he challenged me. I’ll be the first to admit; he beat my ass. I took a 25 minute beatdown but at the end of it all, I pinned his shoulders to the mat, 1-2-3. At Survivor Series, I’m gonna get my ass kicked, but I’m gonna walk out as the 15 time World Heavyweight Champion and once again I’ll be able to say that the CHAMP IS HEREEEE!” Cena dropped the microphone and got right in Brock’s face. Brock never flinched or backed down and neither did Cena. Heyman pleaded with Brock to step away and save it for Survivor Series, when the money is right. Brock didn’t want to, but finally did with a smile, seemingly knowing that Cena is on borrowed time.
LOS MATADORES W/ EL TORITO VS. TYSON KIDD AND CESARO W/ NATALYA; According to an insert promo during their entrance, Tyson Kidd and Cesaro have become best friends over the past few months. Los Matadores were their usual high flying selves, but the story of this match was the instant chemistry between Kidd and Cesaro. They worked very well together and beat Diego after Cesaro’s big swing got interrupted by a vicious dropkick from Kidd. Tyson Kidd and Cesaro defeated Los Matadores in 4:44!The celebration between Tyson Kidd and Cesaro is big, as they hug in the middle of the ring. Natalya applauds them and tries to join in, but she gets mostly ignored by the WWE’s newest tag team.
The WWE Women’s Champion, Paige, was interviewed in the back by Renee Young to a massive pop. They recapped Emma’s attack on Paige after the loss in the Survival Trials Finals. Paige admitted that she was not only physically hurt, but she was heartbroken. “The last time I was here in England, Emma went out and celebrated with my mum and I after I won this title. Emma has been my best friend since we joined the WWE. But now, I just can’t believe it. To have her do something like that…I never expected it.” Paige says that she plans on getting to the bottom of Emma’s actions, one way or another.
Staying backstage, Rey Mysterio is shown warming up. One half of the WWE Tag Team Champions, Daniel Bryan, came up to him. Bryan shook his hand and thanked him for his contributions to wrestling. “You know, if it wasn’t for you, someone my size would have never been given an opportunity” said Bryan. Mysterio thanked him and said that it is going to be an honor facing him as part of his farewell tour tonight. Bryan agreed and they parted ways.
EMMA VS. LAYLA; An altered version of Emma’s theme played and she wasn’t doing any dances. She received boos from the WWE Universe as she worked over Layla. It was clear from the start that this was a more aggressive Emma. Her strikes were hard and gone was the fun demeanor. She made Layla tap out to the Emma Lock. Emma defeated Layla in 3:49!Emma exited the ring and left up the ramp. As she got near the top, the music of Paige hit to a massive pop. She stepped out behind Emma and seemingly tried to talk to her. Emma turned, looked past her and left to the back without paying any attention to Paige. The WWE Women’s Champion was at a loss, trying and failing to get her best friend to talk to her.
Sticking with the women of the WWE, we saw AJ Lee in the back. She skipped into the women’s locker room and met up with Tamina. AJ said that she knows they haven’t really hung out since she returned, but she hasn’t forgotten their relationship. “You know I’m not one to ask for help since I don’t exactly play well with others. But, those Bella bitches are growing in numbers and I could use a familiar face.” Tamina looked down at AJ and simply said, “I got your back.” AJ found herself an old ally.
DANIEL BRYAN VS. REY MYSTERIO; According to Michael Cole, for the final few weeks of his career, Rey Mysterio will be embarking on a farewell tour of sorts, competing against various WWE Superstars on his way out. This battle with Daniel Bryan will be hard to top. They wrestled at a quick pace and had tons of back and forth, with neither guy gaining a real upper hand. Bryan tried to use a few submissions to win, but Mysterio wriggled free of each. He nailed a big springboard splash but Bryan was able to get a shoulder up. Rey also had a shot at the 619, but Bryan avoided it. Rey swung around and entered the ring, charging forward only to get met with a massive Busaiku Knee. Daniel Bryan defeated Rey Mysterio in 13:23!
The commentary team hyped the match up as one of the best in recent Raw memory. Daniel Bryan got to his feet as the fans gave them a standing ovation. He assisted Rey to his feet as well, and the two embraced in a hug. Bryan raised Rey’s arm and pointed to him, before leaving the ring and allowing the Liverpool faithful to enjoy their final time seeing Mysterio.
Backstage, a very pissed off Ryback was seen scouring the halls in search of Curtis Axel. He shouted at workers in the back and knocked things over in the process. ADRIAN NEVILLE VS. CHRIS JERICHO; Here was a battle of the two men in the Survival Trials that did not compete at the Finals show last night. Both guys struggled throughout the tournament and during it, Adrian Neville bested Chris Jericho in their first ever match. Jericho took his struggles to heart and it has led him to be more physical. Neville still had the bad leg, so he slipped off the top before the Red Arrow. Jericho quickly got up and won with the Lionsault. Chris Jericho defeated Adrian Neville in 6:16!Chris Jericho quickly rolled out of the ring and headed up the ramp. Not much celebrating from him as he still seemed to be trying to find something that worked for him. The referee checked on Adrian Neville, who was still holding his knee. The Miz made a run in through the crowd and immediately attacked that leg. Miz pounded away on it until several referees pulled him away. Miz could be heard shouting “YOU NEEDED ME! HOW DARE YOU!” as he was pulled away.
In the back again, Ryback kicked down a door, searching for Curtis Axel. He then heard someone yell “HEY RYBACK!” He tuned and the camera saw Axel by his car in the parking lot. Ryback charged but Axel got into the car and drove away before Ryback could get to him. The pissed off “Big Guy” was left fuming.
BO DALLAS W/ BIG SHOW VS. CODY RHODES; The tandem of BoShow stood across from Cody Rhodes, with Big Show trying to intimidate him. Once he was forced to wait outside though, Bo wasn’t nearly as intimidating on his own. Cody looked to not miss a beat despite the loss last night. He made relatively quick work of Bo, putting him down with the Disaster Kick. Cody Rhodes defeated Bo Dallas in 2:21!Big Show attempted to enter the ring and go after Cody Rhodes, but Cody was able to slide out of the ring and have his hand raised by the referee. It certainly wasn’t on the level of his Survival Trial victories, but Cody picked up right where he left off.
In the back, Renee Young interviewed the WWE United States Champion, Alexander Rusev and Lana. She wanted to know their thoughts heading into the Champion vs. Champion match against Dolph Ziggler this Friday. Lana answered for Rusev, laughing and saying that Rusev is going into the match the same way he always does. Rusev did a rare chime in, stating “I am the best in the WWE, not that stupid Dolph Ziggler with his stupid hair.” Lana laughed, adding “he is going in as the Super Athlete. He is going in as man that will CRUSH Dolph Ziggler. Nothing will stop Rusev from showing the world that he is the best champion. He does not need a ridiculous open challenge to try and impress people.”
BATISTA AND RANDY ORTON VS. CM PUNK AND ROMAN REIGNS; Both teams showed up without any reinforcements. Batista and Randy Orton were a well-oiled machine, while CM Punk and Roman Reigns had a few disagreements. Despite that, they showed flashes of having good teamwork. Orton and Batista ended up singling out Punk, beating down on their smaller opponent. Punk would be able to make the hot tag to Reigns, who came in and lit up both Batista and Orton. Unfortunately, there was a massive miscue at the close. Punk was brawling with Orton in the corner as Reigns set up for a Spear on Batista. Batista moved just as Punk turned around, so Punk took the Spear! Batista tackled Reigns outside, allowing Orton to get the pin on Punk. Batista and Randy Orton defeated CM Punk and Roman Reigns in 11:12!
The Authority members left up the ramp with big smiles on their faces. Roman Reigns entered the ring and checked on CM Punk. Batista and Randy Orton stopped atop the ramp to watch this unfold. Punk began to stir and Reigns tried to help him up, only to get shoved away. Reigns looked annoyed, but tried to help again, only for Punk to try and strike him. Reigns blocked it by grabbing his arm and held it in place. Punk and Reigns stared into each other’s eyes as Reigns seemed to tell Punk something. Punk broke free of his grip, exited the ring and angrily snatched his Tag Team Title from ringside.
“Liverpool…we’re here.” A mixed reaction fell over the WWE Universe as Bray Wyatt led the Wyatt Family to the ring to finally give us answers for his attacks. Erick Rowan brought the rocking chair with him and Bray sat down in the middle of the ring. Bray sent Rowan and Luke Harper away, as it was time for him to be a leader and do this on his own. Bray started to speak, “Why Bray why? That’s all that everyone has been asking since we eradicated Vince McMahon. People said ‘but he’s just poor old Mr. McMahon. He’s nearly 70 years old. Why would you do that Bray?’ At first, I thought your reactions were quite priceless. You see, for years you all cheered and reveled whenever anyone got their hands on the boss. But now, those that have been stubborn and too afraid to follow the buzzards, seem to take issue. Fear not though. I am not a leader that will guide you into the abyss. Take my hand I will lead you to a better place. I told Daniel Bryan, I told John Cena, I told Roman Reigns…I told them all that I could save them. But I realized that they were also too stubborn. They couldn’t see the forest for the trees. Before I can save any individual souls in the WWE, I must save the WWE itself. That’s where Vince comes into play. We were patiently waiting until the time was right and when Vince showed up on Raw, we knew it was time. All kingdoms fall. The hand that causes that fall from grace is the one that rightfully takes over. We did what we did to Vince McMahon so that we can hold the power, so that we could save the WWE. Triple H tried to wield his power in front of us. He was never in our plans but a mere casualty of war. Look around yourselves ladies and gentlemen, where are your heroes? There is no Triple H. There is no Vince McMahon. It’s just Bray Wyatt.”
“HERE COMES THE MONEY…” The roof of the Echo Arena nearly blew off as, for the first time in over five years, Shane McMahon stepped out onto the Raw stage. Even Bray Wyatt, a man normally in complete control, could not expect this. He looked out at Shane with no expression on his face. Shane meant business as he walked towards the ring without pandering to the crowd. He stood across from Bray as the tension built and the fans chanted “this is awesome”. Shane made the first move, charging at Bray and laying into him with rights and lefts. Bray fought back with shots of his own and sent Shane outside. Luke Harper and Erick Rowan appeared but Bray shouted for them to stay back. “HE’S MINE!” Bray followed to the outside, but Shane was ready with a steel chair, hitting Bray in the ribs. Shane then leveled him in the back with a thunderous shot. Shane reared back and struck with a third vicious shot. By this time, Rowan and Harper made it back down to ringside. Shane slid in the ring and dared them to join them. They stepped forward, but a worn out Bray held them back. Despite taking some big chair shots, Bray had a smile on his face as he backed up the ramp with Harper and Rowan. The final shot of Raw saw Shane standing alone in the ring with a steel chair as the crowd went wild.

- Starting off RAW with the WWE Tag Team Champions CM Punk and Daniel Bryan makes total sense given what happened to them last week on RAW when they were taken out by The Authority...and of course they are not in a happy mood but then cue the WWE Tag Team Champions calling out The Authority namely Stephanie I mean I really have to wonder if they are that stupid enough to call her out? I mean given what happened last week when they were taken out by Mr. Money in the Bank Bad News Barrett, Sheamus, Director of Operations Kane, Batista and Randy Orton I have to wonder if these 2 are walking into yet another trap? But then Punk and Bryan bringing up their respective histories with The Authority if anyone has had it tough more than anybody especially against The Authority it has been Punk and Bryan but then they suggest one match a match that ends all...Team Authority vs Team Bryan & Punk...whichever team loses has to disband for good I mean those are some high stakes but then who joins Bryan and Punk's team? None other than The Shield...Rollins, Reigns and Ambrose if anyone has their own history with The Authority it is definitely The Shield...now the odds are even for Survivor Series
- Ziggler's Show Off Challenge continues and Ziggler defending his WWE Intercontinental Championship against none other than Ryback...another surprising match-up to say the least and surprisingly this match was back and forth all be it Ryback was probably well enough on his way to becoming the new WWE Intercontinental Champion probably would have beat Ziggler but then Curtis Axel shows up causing the DQ as he attacks Ryback and Ziggler both I mean if it wasn't apparent then it is now that Axel wants the WWE Intercontinental Championship...a title that his WWE Hall of Famer father the late great Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig once held...I mean Axel wants to keep the family legacy going so why not?
- Bray Wyatt he not only took out the Chairman of WWE Mr. McMahon he took out the COO of this company he took out The Game Triple H so it begs the question of if we will even get an explanation from The Wyatt Family as to why they did all of that?
- Stephanie wanting to put the unity of Bryan's team to the test tonight by pairing up one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions Punk with one third of The Shield that being Reigns to face the team of Batista and Orton...well that is quite a match for tonight but at the same time which team has more unity? I mean Punk and Reigns even though they have history because of Punk's epic battles with The Shield in the past Punk and Reigns even though they probably don't get along they hate The Authority much more than they hate each other so I can see them working together...the enemy of my enemy is my friend
- Cameron and Summer Rae beating the team of Naomi and Natalya...I mean it seems that Cameron and Summer Rae are getting better and better as divas each and every time they step out into that ring and even this match is proof in that development but then Eva Marie and The Bella Twins joining in with Summer Rae and Cameron to assault Naomi and Natalya post-match I mean we had to know that that was coming but then post-match AJ Lee making the save for Naomi and Natalya I mean I definitely was not counting on that but seeing AJ Lee here I mean could she end up teaming with Natalya and Naomi? If she does that will be quite a coup but then they are still down in terms of the numbers game because it would be 5 on 3 unless they can get 2 more divas to make it 5 on 5 for Survivor Series
- Rhodes he came up short in the Survival Trials finals by losing to Cena...but at the same time his whole entire run in that Survival Trials tournament all be it that it was lucky he was damn impressive not even I am going to argue or deny that but when it all came down to it in the end he had the brass ring and what happened? It slipped right out of his hand because he lost to Cena...so it only begs the question of where Rhodes goes from here?
- The Shield, Punk and Bryan arguing about who is really in charge of this team I mean how are these 5 guys going to get along in time for Survivor Series? This being named Bryan's team I mean who in the hell decided that? What makes Bryan the team captain? Why not Punk as the team captain? Or any one man in the Shield as captain? I mean this is just going to create even more dissension but I think that is what The Authority are counting on
- Lesnar and Cena face to face...I mean these 2 are going at it for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship at Survivor Series in the main event for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship but also Lesnar and Cena have quite the rivalry quite the history but at the same time if anyone knows Brock then it is definitely Cena...I mean the last time these 2 went at it one on one in the ring was Extreme Rules 2012 in an Extreme Rules Match and who won that night? Cena did granted he did but he got his ass kicked every minute of that match he was dominated by Lesnar but Cena still won but between now and then Lesnar has only gotten more better he has become much more vicious much more dominant in the ring...Lesnar is the only man in WWE history to end The Undertaker's WrestleMania undefeated streak doing what no man in history was able to do he did it and then after that he dominated both Cena and Bryan in the same match a Triple Threat Match to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion and Lesnar has been champion ever since...so what makes Cena think he stands any chance? I think Cena he may be going to Suplex City at Survivor Series...he got a taste of it at SummerSlam already
- Cesaro and Kidd beating Los Matadores...I mean Cesaro and Kidd ever since they have become a tag team they have essentially become quite the tag team here in WWE picking up win after win but also it makes me wonder if these 2 will set their sights on the WWE Tag Team Championships?
- Paige the WWE Women's Champion she wants answers from her now former best friend Emma as to why Emma turned on her...well if it wasn't obvious then it is now that Emma wanted the WWE Women's Championship and she still does but also Paige beat her I mean that was her one opportunity and Emma did lose so I think the frustration of that is what caused Emma to turn on Paige but at the same time Paige she shouldn't waste time trying to get answers from Emma because she isn't going to get them because Emma what I see her doing...I see her attacking Paige yet again and when that happens cue the rivalry
- Emma beating Layla...it seems that ever since she turned heel last week it seems Emma is on a roll now I mean she beats Layla in her first match as a heel I mean this new attitude of Emma's I love it...it is going to take her far that is for sure because being the happy go lucky dancer was getting her nowhere being Mrs. Nice Girl was getting her nowhere and it is about time she finally takes what she wants but then seeing Paige show up to try to get an explanation if only for Emma to walk out on Paige I mean see whatever Paige was trying to accomplish she simply wasted her time because it is evident that this friendship of theirs is pretty much over
- AJ Lee recruiting Tamina...I mean if Tamina joins AJ's crusade then they are still down in numbers it is 5 on 4 because AJ Lee has Naomi, Natalya and now Tamina they are going to need a 5th woman to join their cause but who will it be?
- Daniel Bryan beating Rey Mysterio in Rey's Farewell tour...I mean it is kind of bittersweet that Rey is retiring but it is at that time in Rey's career where he has to step away I mean Rey is for sure a first ballot WWE Hall of Famer whenever he goes in but at the same time Rey Mysterio when he does go in I wonder who will induct him? As for Bryan beating him here he had to because Bryan needs as much momentum heading into Survivor Series considering Bryan's team is facing The Authority but at the same time Mysterio needed the win more considering his match at Survivor Series is going to be his last...his retirement match against Del Rio
- Ryback is looking for Axel but Axel I am sure he has probably gotten the hell out of town by now
- Chris Jericho beating Adrian Neville...I mean Jericho now that Survival Trials is over I mean Jericho he is picking up steam or he seems to be picking up momentum but I wonder if Jericho will turn heel? Or could turn heel soon? I mean it could happen but as for Miz showing up post-match attacking Neville it seems the rivalry is not only continuing but that it has essentially become much more personal...I can definitely see these 2 going at it at Survivor Series now
- Axel leaving the arena leaving Ryback fuming...I mean it is obvious that one way or the other sooner or later these 2 are going to go at it it is only a matter of when and it is going to happen at Survivor Series how much you wanna bet that these 2 will collide then?
- Cody Rhodes fresh off of his Survival Trials finals loss he rebounds by beating Bo Dallas...I mean Rhodes he is picking up steam now so it only begs the question of what Rhodes does between now and Survivor Series? I mean Rhodes gets out of the ring before Big Show can get in there to try to attack him I mean Rhodes he just may be in line for a push soon I mean he made it all the way to the Survival Trials final and even though he lost he was put on the map essentially but I wonder if this just may in fact be the beginning of Rhodes going to that upper echelon of main event stardom?
- Rusev is confident I mean Champion vs Champion...Rusev the WWE United States Champion facing off against the reigning WWE Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler I mean Rusev is undefeated he hasn't been pinned or he hasn't been made to submit while Ziggler he has gotten better and better every Show-Off Challenge title defense I mean something has gotta give here
- Batista and Orton of The Authority beating one half of the WWE Tag Team Champions The Best in the World CM Punk and one third of The Shield the powerhouse of The Shield Roman Reigns...definite miscommunication here between Reigns and Punk with Reigns accidentally spearing Punk just as Batista moved out of the way and then Reigns being taken out on the outside by Batista only for Orton to steal the damn victory for his team by pinning Punk...I mean whatever The Authority were planning to try to cause dissension within Bryan's team yeah it definitely worked here especially with Punk looking like he wanted to take Reigns' head off post-match if only for Reigns to stop him...I mean I was expecting some kind of explosion but who knows what could happen between now and Survivor Series but it seems that Team Authority has the upper hand
- Bray Wyatt if he says he is here to save the WWE and by doing that he takes out not only Vince but takes out Triple H then why didn't Bray Wyatt take out Stephanie too? I mean The Authority are what is wrong with WWE so why didn't he take out Stephanie too? Because then if he did that he would have created even more chaos in the WWE but then no one would be around to stop Bray Wyatt but either way The Wyatt Family who is going to stop them? No one can not even The Authority no one can stop them no one can control them either but then seeing Shane McMahon make a shocking return to WWE here...Shane is back after 5 long years the last time he was on WWE TV was 2009 fast forward in this diary it is 2014 and now that Shane is back he immediately goes after Bray Wyatt I can't say that I blame Shane given the fact that Shane's father Vince and his brother-in-law Triple H were both taken out by Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper and Erick Rowan but then seeing Shane use a steel chair on Bray Wyatt...I am surprised why Harper and Rowan wouldn't go in to try to take the chair from Shane or even attack him given the fact that they could have easily have rushed Shane but then Wyatt holding them back I am shocked at that
- Bray Wyatt he loves the brutality coming from Shane...he actually loves it I mean Wyatt is nothing more than a deranged lunatic but at the same time he is as evil as maniacal as they come and Shane he is going to have to deal with all of that sooner or later but if he does then I can see it being Bray vs Shane at Survivor Series but I don't see it being in just any regular match I see this match either being contested in a Last Man Standing Match or a Hell in a Cell Match or a Casket Match

 WWE NXT: November 13th, 2014 – Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida
After the signature intro, we go to a video package that shows highlights of the historic Survival Trials Finals even this past Sunday. To open that show, Corey Graves defended his NXT Championship against Sami Zayn. It was a hard fought battle, but in the end, one half of the NXT Tag Team Champions was able to make his own history and capture the title. This is followed by the weekly NXT intro video before our commentary team of Alex Riley, Jason Albert and Rich Brennan introduced things.
NUMBER ONE CONTENDER’S TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND: ENZO AMORE AND COLIN CASSADY W/ CARMELLA VS. THE ALL AMERICAN REAL AMERCIANS W/ ZEB COLTER; For the first time, we got to see Jack Swagger and Jason Jordan work together. While they are formidable Superstars, things didn’t go quite as well as they’d hoped. On a few occasions, Jordan and Swagger miscommunicated and it cost them. Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady were on point, showing off the chemistry that has made them so popular. That allowed them to hit the Rocket Launcher on Jordan and advance to the next round. Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady defeated The All-American Real Americans in 6:32!The bell sounded and the crowd came to their feet. Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady left up the ramp in celebration alongside the lovely Carmella. Jack Swagger was fuming, Zeb Colter tried to calm him down and Jason Jordan came to, only to look very disappointed. The run of the All-American Real Americans has gotten off to a very rocky start.
A video package aired to remind everyone that Corey Graves’ week got off to a rocky start back last week when he lost to Evan Bourne. That set him on a path to drop the NXT Championship to Sami Zayn on Sunday and Graves is said to be livid about his recent struggles. Following that, Devin Taylor was standing by with Evan Bourne. She asked him about defeating Corey Graves while he held the NXT Championship. Bourne called it his biggest win since returning to the WWE joining NXT. He added, “I know that Sami Zayn won the NXT Title and congratulations to him, but I want him to remember that I pinned an NXT Champion. Usually when that happens, you get a title shot and Sami, I’m coming for one sooner than later. Until then, I’ll be at your celebration tonight buddy.”
An ad aired to promote the latest WWE Film, Queens of the Ring. FINN BALOR VS. JUSTIN GABRIEL; Last week, NXT ended when Finn Balor was attacked by Solomon Crowe. Tonight, he had to focus on Justin Gabriel, a rival of his alongside Tyson Kidd since Finn’s debut. They put on an athletic showcase though Finn showed a bit of an angrier side. He hit some loud sounding strikes and really took it to the “Darewolf”. Finn nailed the Coup de Grace double foot stomp and bested Gabriel. Finn Balor defeated Justin Gabriel in 5:01!Finn Balor was not given time to enjoy his victory as Solomon Crowe ran in through the crowd and leveled him from behind. He continued the assault, but Finn managed to fight him off and back into the corner. Finn laid into him with right hands as the crowd roared. He stepped back and went in for a dropkick but Crowe avoided it and Finn crashed into the turnbuckles. Crowe grabbed a steel chair from outside and, just as Finn got up, whacked him in the back with it. Crowe continued to wail away on Finn’s back as commentary questioned his motives. Crowe could be heard shouting “THIS IS MY TIME” before he left a lifeless Finn laid out. Finn was certainly more aggressive tonight, but it wasn’t enough to combat Solomon Crowe.
Backstage, Devin Taylor introduced her guests, Bayley and Becky Lynch. Tonight, they face off for the first time ever and it will determine the number one contender for the NXT Women’s Championship. Becky Lynch spoke first, saying that she is newer to NXT than a lot of girls but she’s been doing this for years and she wants to be the top female in the business. “That title makes me the best and I want it. At the end of tonight, you better Bexpect me as the number one contender.” Bayley laughed at Becky’s pun before staking her own claim for the title, citing that it has been her dream since she was a little girl. “I’m going to be your next NXT Women’s Champion, you better BAYlieve it. See what I did there?” Becky chuckled and they shook hands.
A short commercial was shown to promote WWE 2K15, where you can play as your favorite Superstars, Divas and Legends on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for the first time ever. NUMBER ONE CONTENDER’S TAG TEAM TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND: THE ASCENSION VS. BRODUS CLAY AND CURT HAWKINS; The veterans of the WWE have been trying to make their impact on NXT but have mostly failed recently. Despite the size of Brodus Clay, they ran into a brick wall known as the former NXT Tag Team Champions, the Ascension. They ran through these two in dominant fashion and finished Curt Hawkins with the Fall of Man. The Ascension defeated Brodus Clay and Curt Hawkins in 2:17!
Rich Brennan hyped the victory, announcing that the Ascension are now one step closer to regaining their NXT Tag Team Titles. They’ve advanced to the second round and will take on Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady. Meanwhile, the first round continues next week. The Legionnaires will face the newly named Lucha Dragons of Kalisto and Sin Cara, while the Vaudevillains go toe to toe with Blake and Murphy!
In the back, the All-American Real Americans were shown in their locker room looking very disappointed. Jack Swagger seemed to blame Jason Jordan for the loss, but Jordan said that the group can only be as good as their leader. Zeb Colter attempted to keep the peace but things stopped once a short man with long hair stepped into the picture. He said that he had a suggestion. An irritated Swagger asked who he was. “My name is Chad Gable and I, like you guys, am an All-American. Jack, I know what went wrong tonight and it’s nobody’s fault. Think about your career. Sure you found success with Cesaro but all of your best success came as a singles competitor. ECW Champion, United States Champion, Money in the Bank, World Heavyweight Champion. That’s where you belong.” Jack pondered it and Zeb jumped in, saying that if Chad had a point, to get to it. Chad suggested that he join the All-American Real Americans and be Jordan’s partner, so they could take over the tag team division, while Jack handled the singles stuff. While Jack and Jason still thought about it, Zeb said that they will have to decide on it as a group. Chad responded, “Take your time guys. When you have an answer, I’ll be here…ready, willing, and Gable.” He held up a towel that literally said those words on it, confusing the other three men, who left the room.
Before our main event, we were treated to a self-shot video of Tyler Breeze. He addressed the NXT Universe, saying that he’s gotten thousands of tweets and emails asking him why he attacked Hideo Itami last week. Tyler said that there was no shocking answer despite the public’s demand. “It’s quite simple. I told you all weeks ago that I was getting tired of NXT signing all of these uggos to contracts and taking away my spot. I should be the main event around here, not Hideous Itami. He found that out last week and if he tries to take another main event from me, I’ll do it again.”
NUMBER ONE CONTENDER’S MATCH: BAYLEY VS. BECKY LYNCH; With both girls being very popular among the NXT fans, there was a noticeably hot and split crowd. They had a lengthy feeling out process and it was tough to see who would get the upper hand. It was Becky to do so first and she wisely made sure her offense was targeted on Bayley’s arm. After some back and forth, she attempted the DisArmHer, but Bayley was close enough to the ropes to break the hold. Becky wasn’t deterred and hooked Bayley for a Bexplex. Bayley elbowed out and delivered the Bayley to Belly, scoring the 1-2-3. Bayley defeated Becky Lynch in 10:47!A loud round of applause fell over Full Sail University, as the NXT Universe showed their appreciation for the efforts of two of the best women’s wrestlers on the planet. Both girls were worn out but it was Bayley that was up first. She made sure to extend a hand to Becky Lynch and help her up. Becky accepted and the women embraced in a nice moment. At our next TakeOver special, Bayley will get a chance to become NXT Women’s Champion.
Bayley and Becky Lynch stayed at ringside for Sami Zayn’s Championship celebration. His music hit to a thunderous ovation and the fans shouted “LET’S GO” along with his theme. He came out with a huge smile and walked around the ring, greeting everyone in attendance. Enzo Amore, Colin Cassady, Carmella, Evan Bourne, Kevin Owens, Bayley, Becky, Charlotte, Kalisto, Hideo Itami and even Adrian Neville were there, to name a few. Sami entered the ring as confetti fell from the ceiling. He clearly didn’t expect that and posed for the fans with the gold. Sami got on the microphone and wanted to thank the fans first and foremost. “The support from each and every one of you is exactly what has led me to this title. I fought, for nearly ten years, all around the world to get to this point and I’ve gotta tell you, it feels amazing.” Sami said that a few months back, he wanted nothing more than to win championship gold in NXT and here he stands as a double champion. That led to him bringing his tag team partner and best friend, Kevin Owens, into the ring. “Buddy, I just wanted to thank you most of all. It wasn’t until you arrived here that things started turning around. Without you, there would be no Sami Zayn, NXT Champion!” The crowd cheered and Kevin Owens looked touched. He requested the microphone and said, “I appreciate that Sami, I really do. Winning these Tag Team Titles with you was one of the best moments, not just of my career, but of my life. But you need you understand something Sami. That’s not where my aspirations end. Watching you win the NXT Title was a special moment for me. I saw my best friend accomplish his dream and, while I felt a sense of pride and happiness, I also felt something else. Part of me was jealous. And another part of me realized something else. Sami…I realized that…I hate your guts.” A shocked audience watched as Owens shoved Sami hard into the ropes and planted him with a vicious popup powerbomb as he came off. The Superstars around the ring entered the ring to defend Sami but Kevin was done. He picked up his NXT Tag Team Title and threw it over the ropes to the outside. He turned away from several Divas checking on Sami and the rest of the Superstars in the ring and left up the ramp. William Regal passed him by, demanding an answer but Kevin ignored him and kept moving. The final shot of the night saw Sami begin to stir and pull himself up on the second rope. He looked out of the ring at the NXT Tag belt that Owens left behind.

WWE NXT: November 13th, 2014 – Full Sail University in Winter Park, Florida *Great Opening Contest, i like the team of Jack Swagger and Jason Jordan, but Enzo Amore and Big Cass are cooler, and they're more experienced as a tag team, and both of them are more experienced than Jason Jordan, Jack Swagger also hasn't been that great as of late, so no wonder Enzo and Cass managed to get a victory and advance in the tournament, tension between Real Americans already ? hmmmmmmmm ! *Evan Bourne has been doing great since his return to WWE and joining NXT, and hell yeah, i'm digging for Sami Zayn vs Evan Bourne feud/match ! *Finn Balor vs Justin Gabriel is a great match, Finn really needed that win to keep his momentum going after being attacked by Solomon Crowe last week, too bad he got attacked again, haha, a Great Feud, can't wait for Balor vs Crowe on the next Takeover. *lol, PUNS CITY BITCH, haha. *Ascension beating Clay and Hawkins is predictable, Ascensio make it to the next Round in this Tournament, but will they win ? i think they're favorites at this point. *I Don't know who are the Legionnaires but Lucha Dragons are winning hopefully, and Vaudevillians and Blake/Murphy match is the most unpredictable in the first round, but i predictable Vaudevillians. *Hell Yeah, American Alphas ! with Swagger and Colter joining them as A Stable, i see it has a lot of potential ! *Tyler Breeze vs Hideo Itami is yet another Great Feud that i'm looking forward to *Bayley vs Becky Lynch was a great match, Both are my faovrites in WWE right now, great to see Bayley winning, hope she wins the title at the next takeover *Kevin Owens betraying Sami Zayn was no big shock, it was gonna happen sooner or later, Owens picked up the right timing really, Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn is always a great feud, can't wait to see how it goes, overall, it was a great edition of NXT |
