On a night full of surprises in the Continental Airlines Arena in New Jersey, things kicked off just right. At the very beginning of the show, CM Punk declared that when he beats Shannon Moore he would probably still be hungry for competition. Punk then went on to say that he was going to issue a challenge to a superstar on Smackdown. Punk then went out for his match which was a very competitive match for the first 4 minutes but the tides switched to being strongly on Punk’s side when Moore attempted a failed missile drop kick. Punk hit a top rope clothesline before picking Moore up and slamming him down with the Cobra Clutch bomb into the Anaconda Vice, Moore had no choice but to promptly tap out. CM Punk then got on the mic and declared that the match didn’t fuel his hunger for competition and at the first Pay Per View, SummerSeries, Punk was issuing a challenge to Smackdown Superstar Chris Benoit. Punk challenged Benoit to give him his answer this Friday on Smackdown as Punk would be showing up to hear the response.
After all this went down it was time for ECW Alumni Tommy Dreamer to enter the ring with the undefeated monster in Test. Test made extremely short work of Tommy Dreamer as Tommy tried his best to revert Test to an uncomfortable Extreme style of wrestling. Tommy used everything but the kitchen sink to try to take down the monster but it was a hellacious Big Boot that stopped Tommy in his tracks. Test then hoisted Tommy onto his shoulders and took him down with the TKO that was now dubbed the Test Knock Out. Test covered the lifeless Tommy Dreamer to pick up another win. EMT’s rushed down to the ring to help out the injured Tommy Dreamer as another man had something on his mind.
Kurt Angle was backstage and was saying that ECW wasn’t being farely represented since the newest additions to the WWE roster. Kurt Angle claimed that since it was almost his duty to get onto the map, he challenged one superstar from every roster to a Fatal 4 Way match for the #1 Contender ship of any title on any brand. Kurt Angle laid out the challenge, who will be the first to accept? After the interview, a montage video began playing showing the dominant side of Kurt Angle. Numerous people have fallen victim to the Angle Lock, some who have barely escaped without a broken ankle and some who have not been so lucky. The Angle Slam, one of the most devastating maneuvers in ECW history was showcased in the video as well showing victims like Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, The Rock, Stone Cold, Brock Lesnar and many more. After the video it was go time for Kurt Angle as he was primed and ready to go against Little Guido who looked like a pig being lead to the slaughterhouse. Kurt Angle dominated the match and before you knew it started, it ended with Kurt locking in the Angle Lock and grape vining the leg.
Edge declared that since New Years Revolution when he won the WWE Title he hasn’t been the same, he has been a man possessed by the lure of gold. After losing to Cena three weeks later, Edge realized his mistakes and vowed to correct them. “Even though RVD may not be Cena” Edge said “He still has something that belongs to me. And tonight... tonight I take it BACK!” Rob Van Dam looked ready to go before the match, doing several stretches. It was now time for the MAIN EVENT of the evening, Edge Vs Rob Van Dam for the WWE Title. The match started with Edge going on a very aggressive attack off the bat, throwing fists and kicks in a flurry, This continued for a while but things started turning around when RVD dodged a spear and sent Edge into the corner. RVD hit a spinning wheel kick to the jaw of Edge. With Edge down, RVD went out and grabbed a steel chair and laid it across the chest of Edge. RVD climbed to the top rope but Lita ran up and grabbed his foot. Rob shook Lita off the apron and came off with a HUGE 5-Star Frogsplash. Unfortunately for RVD, Edge got his knees up and put the chair across his knees. It wasn’t a soft landing for RVD but Edge took advantage, waiting patiently for RVD to stand up before tossing the chair to RVD and doing his own Van Daminator much to the displeasure of the Jersey crowd. Edge sat himself down in the corner and waited patiently for Van Dam to get up. RVD stood up and turned around right into a huge Spear. Edge went immediately for the cover and received 1.....2.......3! A new WWE Champion was crowned on an ECW show! Lita and Edge laid the boots to RVD when all of a sudden, “I Walk Alone” by Saliva hits on the speakers and Batista came out. Edge told Lita to get out of the ring. Batista entered the ring as Edge was charging, Batista lifted Edge up an connected with one hell of a Spinebuster. Batista started shaking the ropes and gave the thumbs up-thumbs down before hoisting Edge into the air for a HUGE Batista Bomb that shook the ring. Batista grabbed Edge’s newly won WWE Title and held it over his head as the show came to a close.Quick Results CM Punk Def Shannon Moore Via Anaconda Vice- 55% Overall Quality Test Def Tommy Dreamer Via TKO- 67% Overall Quality Kurt Angle Def Little Guido Via Angle Lock- 76% Overall Quality Edge Def Rob Van Dam to win the WWE Championship- 80% Overall QualityThere it is, the first show. Trying to go for more of a WWE Recap feel while still going a little indepth with it... if you wish for it to be more indepth let me know.

Live from the Continental Airlines Arena in New Jersey, the Smackdown faithful were fired up for another Friday Night Smackdown and for good reason too. The show kicked off with some tag team action as Finlay and Regal took on the WWE Tag Team Champions London and Kendrick in a non title match. The match was a closely contested match with London And Kendrick trying to jump to an early start on the team of veterans. London and Kendrick tried to stay in the air while every chance they got, the veteran team of Finlay and Regal worked on the legs of the team of acrobats. The turning point of the match was when the referee was distracted with London in the corner which opened an opportunity for Finlay to grab the Shaleliegh in the corner. Kendrick attempted a front drop kick but was knocked down by Finlay’s Shaleliegh across the legs. Finlay then hoisted Kendrick onto his back in an Alabama Slam position but Finlay reached and grabbed Kendrick’s head and dropped down with the Irish Cross. Finlay covered Kendrick as Regal held the leg of London on the outside. The team of veterans picked up one hell of a win over the tag team champions and probably helped there chances for a Title match in the future.
Chris Benoit came out to the ring and got a microphone. Almost as soon as Benoit got his microphone, “This Fire Burns” by Killswitch Engaged sounded in the arena and the crowd erupted in a chorus of boos for the ECW superstar CM Punk. Punk walked into the ring with Benoit and demanded to know Benoit’s choice. Benoit promptly let the new ECW up-start know that he accepted the challenge laid out by CM Punk. Benoit then asked Punk why it only has to be1 on 1 at SummerSeries when there is two whole other entities now. Benoit then proposed that both him and Punk go to iMPACT tomorrow night and demand a match with one of the more smash mouth wrestlers on the TNA roster that wasn’t a champion. Benoit proposed to Punk that both of them go to TNA and lay out a challenge to Low-Ki of TNA X-Division fame. Punk agreed that was the way to go however a Triple Threat match just wasn’t enough in Punk’s eyes. Punk then proposed to The Crippler that there is no stopping Punk, Benoit and Low-Ki (If he accepts) from charging into Raw on Monday and proposing the same challenge to a Raw superstar that meets the same criteria as Low-Ki. CM Punk proposed that after Low-Ki accepts the challenge, all three of them head over to Raw and challenge Carlito to join in on the fun. Benoit smiles his toothless smile and tells Punk he’s on. Punk smiles back at Benoit and rolls out of the ring.
Ever since Johnny Nitro and Melina left to head over to Raw, one superstar was left to hang out in the wind. That however is not the case as an even more brash, arrogant Joey Mercury made his reappearance on Smackdown. Mercury dubbed himself “Superstar” Joey Mercury and claimed that he is the only superstar in the WWE or ECW or TNA. Mercury boasted that all of those TNA stars that were added to the roster were just a waste of money when they had the Superstar on the roster. Mercury went on to claim that he should already have gold around his waste. With that, Mercury demanded that United States champion Bobby Lashley came out to accept the open challenge. A match was underway and Joey Mercury jumped on the offense early in the match, attacking Lashley with a knee to the mid-section when Lashley was entering the ring. Mercury stayed on the offense for a while, showing no signs of ring rust or inexperience as a singles competitor. Mercury picked Lashley up onto his shoulders like he would have for the Snap Shot but Lashley struggled out of it into a sunset flip. Mercury kicked out but Lashley was fired up now, sending running knees into the midsection of Mercury. Lashley looked primed and ready as he taunted Mercury to get up. Lashley tried a spear but it was sidestepped by Mercury and Lashley went crashing into the ring post. The end came when Mercury tried again for the Snap Shot but Lashley sent a knee to the face of Mercury. Mercury doubled over as Lashley picked him up and slammed him down with the Dominator. Lashley picked up the win but after the match, Mercury got up and attacked Lashley going so far as to hit a one man Snap Shot on him (which was just a delayed flap jack). Mercury walked outside of the ring and grabbed Lashley’s United States title. Mercury looked at himself in the reflection on the title and began walking to the back with it, looking at himself the entire time.
Batista was in the back and was talking about how him and Randy Orton have a storied history together. When Evolution gave Randy the boot it was Batista who delivered the first blow to Randy with the Electric Chair Drop. Batista said that while everyone had eyes on Randy, Batista knew that it was Batista that was going to be dominating and that is what he has been. Batista pointed out that Batista’s World Title reign was longer then Orton’s Title reign and also pointed out that he never lost the title but he did beat the man who Orton lost the title to win the title. Randy Orton walked up to Batista and began laughing at him. Batista asked Orton how it feels to be back on Raw where he is safe from all beatings that Batista wished he could dish out. Orton pointed out that he shouldn’t have to be here and all he is there for is because Theodore Long said that Batista needed a Raw guy to “Practice on”. Orton told the big man that this match didn’t need to happen and that they could still be friends. Batista told Orton that they never were and told Orton to meet him in the ring or he would come back and drag him to the ring. Orton looked scared half to death.
The first brand Vs brand match of the night got underway and was over almost as quick as it started. Batista waited for the bell to ring before going on the attack and when the bell did ring, Batista let Orton know the contest was underway with a decapitating clothesline. Batista placed Orton in the corner and sent several shoulders to the stomach of Orton. Batista fired Orton off into the ropes and caught Orton on the rebound with a HUGE Spinebuster. Batista gave the Thumbs Up-Thumbs Down and lifted Orton high and came crashing down with a Batista Bomb. Batista went to pin Orton but stopped. Batista walked outside of the ring and went under the ring and grabbed a box. Inside the box was an Edge shirt. Batista took the shirt into the ring and put the shirt on Orton. Batista then picked Orton up again and slammed him down with an even bigger Batista Bomb. This time Batista pinned Orton and got the 1,2,3.
Backstage, Josh Matthews was standing with Rey Mysterio. Josh asked Rey about the goliath of a challenge Rey faced tonight. Rey told Josh he didn’t sweat Scott Steiner, he’s just a man with muscles bigger then brains. Rey said that he over came odds before and tonight he was going to do it again. The match itself was dominated for the first half of the match by Scott Steiner using his obvious strength advantage over Rey. Steiner made one mistake in taking too long for a clothesline and allowed Rey to regroup himself. When Scott finally attempted the clothesline, Rey sent a drop kick to the knee of Steiner. Steiner fell conveniently in the perfect position for the 619. Rey hit the 619 and Steiner rolled onto his back. Rey jumped up to springboard for the Dropping The Dime but when Rey jumped, a man pulled Rey’s leg down and pulled him onto the ringside floor. The man was Ken Kennedy who started sending right hands to Rey. The referee called for the bell and disqualified Steiner. Kennedy rolled Rey into the ring and hoisted him onto his shoulder and climbed the ropes. Kennedy came off with the Greenbay Plunge. Steiner got up and argued with Kennedy to which he received a prompt slap to the face and shown the way out of the ring. Kennedy demanded his mic to be lowered. Kennedy claimed that there was one man who was single handedly changing Friday Nights and that man was challenging Rey next week for the World Heavyweight Title. This man was...[/size] Quick Results: Finlay and Regal Def London and Kendrick (Non-Title) Lashley Def Joey Mercury to Retain the United States title Batista Def Randy Orton Rey Mysterio Def Scott Steiner Via DQ (Interference by Kennedy)

Live from the iMPACT Zone for the last time before TNA starts touring around North America and Canada, The TNA fans gave a proper send off as iMPACT kicked off live. Backstage, The team of Alex Shelley, Johnny Devine and Kevin Nash were backstage running over the night for them. Apparently Johnny Devine has a number 1 contenders match for the X-Division title against former Team Canada partner and former X Champion Petey Williams. Alex Shelley assured Kevin and Johnny that Devine would win that match. Kevin asked Alex what he had planned for his Shelley’s match against Austin Aries. Alex simply said him and Devine had something laid out. Kevin asked about his match against AJ Styles and Alex Shelley told Kevin not to worry because they had something planned for him too. Kevin declared the meeting adjourned and told Johnny to get out there and get one step closer to the X-Division title. Johnny walked out of the locker room followed eventually by Alex Shelley. Johnny Devine started the match off with a heavy offense attempting to ground the aerial offense of Petey Williams. Devine was successful for most of the match in keeping his former teammate on the ground getting stretched out. Devine attempted a Love Generation Moonsault which was scouted and evaded by Williams. Williams was able to take to the air and keep Devine reeling. The match looked to be over when Petey had Devine set up for the Canadian Destroyer but Alex Shelley didn’t let that happen as he came into the ring with a tripod and walloped Petey Williams in the back with it. Devine ascended the top rope and came off with the Love Generation Moonsault and connected with it. Johnny Devine covered Williams and picked up the 3 count to become the new Number 1 Contender for Samoa Joe’s X-Division Title. Devine and his stable mates definitely have there work cut out for them against the Samoan Submission Machine.
After the match, Low-Ki came out to the ring after it was cleared. Low-Ki got in the ring and in no time at all, Chris Benoit and CM Punk followed him out. CM Punk wasted no time at all cutting to the chase. Punk And Benoit demanded Ki’s answer to there challenge. Low-Ki didn’t mince words and profoundly declared that he accepted the challenge. CM Punk said that all that is left now is to get Carlito from Raw on board with the idea. Low-Ki said that he would tag along with Punk and Benoit to Raw. Punk said that’s all fine but he said don’t be surprised if by that time he had the TNA Championship over his shoulder because he planned to show how much more dominant ECW is when compared to TNA and Punk had plans on beating Christian Cage tonight. Punk and Benoit both backed out of the ring as Alex Shelley came back out with Devine and Nash. Alex Shelley had his work cut out tonight as he is taking on the new and improved “Superstar” Austin Aries. Austin Aries showed why he is the Superstar early on, taking Alex Shelley to school. Aries dominated the entire match but the end came when Aries hoisted Shelley onto his shoulders in the position of an F-5. It was then that Devine rolled into the ring and broke a Hockey Stick over the back of Aries. Alex Shelley then hit the Shellshock on Aries and picked up the 1,2,3 putting Paparazzi Productions up 2-0 for the night. Kevin Nash got on the mic and let the fans know that they are dominating the night. Alex Shelley said that it was Kevin’s ultimate X-Division test right now in AJ Styles. Devine told Alex that the big man should have no problem keeping up though which prompted a fired up AJ Styles to run out and start the match early
The match was a real see-saw battle with AJ Styles using his very aerial oriented offense to keep Kevin Nash reeling but Nash would use his uncanny size advantage to slow down the quick moving Styles. With the size difference, AJ was unable to lift the big man up for the Styles Clash which was the ultimate downfall. A swift Big Boot from the big man knocked AJ out cold but the Jacknife delivered after was the last nail in the coffin. Paparazzi Productions went 3-0 on the last Impact before touring across the country. While celebrating in the ring, the lights went out but when they came on again, they were green. A blurb of D-Generation X’s theme song played. On the screen, the Eye Spy logo appeared on the screens in the Impact Zone but were crossed out by the letters DX in spray paint. The stable was left dumbfounded in the middle of the ring as they had apparently been had. Angerly, Nash declared that Alex Shelley, Johnny Devine and himself were going to Raw to confront DX about this incident.
Christian Cage looked prepared for his match with CM Punk but how prepared was the champ really? Christian Cage heard what Punk said about having the title by the time his match at Summerseries rolled around but Christian had other plans for Punk. Christian walked out into an Impact Zone that loved him. CM Punk was walking into an environment he had been in before but had his last match for TNA on February 25th 2004. CM Punk has since moved on to ECW where he claimed he is adored by the fans there. The match was a heavily contested match that went back and forth with several close ones on either outstanding competitors side of things. CM Punk went to the top rope to attempt a move he hadn’t gone to in a while in the Pepsi Plunge. Punk was tossed off the top rope by Christian. Christian attempted an Unprettier but was shoved off by Punk when Christian came back, Punk hit his 2 slaps/backhand/kick combo before locking in the Anaconda Vice. Christian struggled to the ropes and got out of the hold. Punk almost had the match won again when he had Christian set up for a normal Pedigree. Christian got out of the Pedigree when Christian had his arms hooked to which he used this hook to spin out of it and drop Punk with the Unprettier. Christian picked up the win as Punk looked in astonishment. Benoit and Low-Ki both came out and were laughing at Punk. Punk walked up the ramp to argue with Benoit. Punk slapped Benoit in the face and a brawl ensued between Benoit, Punk and Low-Ki. The Security Guards managed to get them separated by the end of the show.Quick Results: Johnny Devine Def Petey Williams by Outside interference from Alex Shelley to become #1 Contender for the X-Division Title Alex Shelley Def Austin Aries by Outside Interference from Devine Kevin Nash Def AJ Styles Christian Cage (C) Def CM Punk to retain the NWA World Heavyweight Title

Live from the HSBC Pavillion Arena in Buffalo, New York , Raw kicked off live and it kicked off with a bang. Kevin Nash and the rest of Paparazzi Productions arrived in there Limo. Kevin Nash swore that by the end of the night DX will have learned better to interrupt them. Kevin, Johnny and Alex walked into the arena together. The nights action started with the Intercontinental Title being on the line. It was Carlito Vs Shelton Benjamin Vs Johnny Nitro. The match was anyone’s guess as to who truly dominated the match. At one point Nitro was in control but just as fast, Carlito would be in control. The shifts in momentum were frequent and it wasn’t until nearing the end of the match that Shelton Benjamin took firm control of the match. Carlito moved to the outside of the ring to do a springboard move of some sort. CM Punk and Chris Benoit ran down and pulled Carlito off the apron. CM Punk put Carlito in the Anaconda Vice on the outside of the ring at the same time as Benoit locked in a Sharpshooter. In the ring, Shelton Benjamin hit an Exploder on Nitro to pick up the three count. After the match, arguing ensued between Punk and Benoit. It didn’t take long for the fighting to break out. Carlito got up and joined in on the fun followed by Low-Ki making his way to the ring. Carlito started teeing off on Punk, Benoit started teeing off on Low-Ki and it was a huge cluster until security ran out to stop it.
Backstage, Kevin Nash, Alex Shelley and Johnny Devine were all going over strategy on how they were going to get back at DX. Devine piped up that DX had a match next with the Spirit Squad. Nash declared that was when they would strike. They all agreed and set out for ringside. Ric Flair was backstage in his usual peppy mood. Flair declared that this purchase of TNA reminded him of WCW and that the best thing to ever happen was the War Games. Ric Flair declared that he himself was bringing back the War Games under a different name, the Ultimate Survival match. Ric Flair went into detail on how things would work and said that 4 of the most capable for a match like this on the rosters of Raw, Smackdown, ECW and TNA would be in the match. On Raw it was of course Ric Flair, on TNA’s roster it would be Sting, on ECW’s roster it was Big Show and on Smackdown’s roster it is The Undertaker. Ric Flair declared “Let The Games Begin”
DX came out for there match with the Spirit Squad. For a good portion of this match, The Spirit Squad excelled at keeping Shawn Michaels in there side of the ring, eliminating Triple H from the equation, even going as far as to almost score a couple pinfalls on Shawn Michaels. It wasn’t until later in the match that HBK was able to effectively shake up the numbers game enough to get a tag out to Triple H. Triple H dominated DX, making the Spirit Squad reel. Triple H went for the Sledgehammer to even things up effectively but Shoot To Thrill by AC/DC hit and Paparazzi Productions were on there way down the ramp. Kevin Nash walked down and leaned against the apron. This distraction allowed enough time for Johnny (Not the legal man) to deliver a low blow to Triple H. Kenny (receiving a blind tag) attempted to Irish Whip Triple H into the ropes but it was reversed. Kevin Nash was unaware of this reversal and pulled down the bottom rope which sent Kenny hurtling over. Kevin realized what he had done and got into the ring, Kevin attempted to Big Boot Triple H but Trips ducked and Johnny caught a boot. The referee demanded them to leave the ringside area. Triple H covered Johnny for the 1,2,3. Nash, Devine and Shelley were all fuming mad. They stormed off to the back.
After the match Nash, Devine and Shelley were going over strategy to ambush DX in there locker room. After they had there devious plan laid out, they went out in search for the locker room. The group ran into TNA member Jeff Hardy who was wandering around backstage. Kevin asked Jeff if he knew where DX’s locker room was. Jeff said he was just heading over there and they should tag along. Jeff reached a door and knocked, Jeff told the guys to go in ahead of him. They went in and it was a completely dark room. Jeff closed the door behind him and when the lights turned back on, Triple H, Shawn Michaels and Jeff Hardy were standing over top of the fallen Kevin Nash, Johnny Devine and Alex Shelley. Triple H tossed Jeff a DX shirt and told them to join them on Raw because he is “Alright with them”
Back in the ring, Melina took on Trish Stratus. In what was a relatively short match, it was still a see-saw battle with Melina taking the reigns only to lose them to Trish and back to Melina. Melina won the match with a Reverse DDT.
After the match, Batista was backstage declaring that he would walk from Raw with the WWE Title over his shoulder... then Smackdown would be the dominant brand. Batista didn’t mince words and straight up told Edge that he is going to beat his ass tonight, plain and simple. The match started and Batista started on the smash mouth offense right away. Edge was reeling from being rocked so bad. Batista had the end in store for Edge when he hoisted Edge up for the Batista Bomb. Out of no where a man came running into the ring and chop blocked Batista, dropping Edge in the process. The man had a black ski mask on but he took it off and revealed himself to be the returning CHRIS JERICHO! Edge propped himself in the corner and waited for Batista to recover. Edge nearly took Batista out of his shoes with on hell of a Spear. Edge pinned Batista for the 3 count. After the match, Jericho got on the mic and declared that one week ago, Kurt Angle laid out a challenge he just couldn’t refuse. Jericho is of course talking about the Number 1 Contenders match for any World Title on any brand they wanted. The show ended with Edge and Jericho shaking hands. Quick Results: Shelton Benjamin Def Carlito and Johnny Nitro to retain the Intercontinental Title D-Generation X Def Johnny and Kenny of The Spirit Squad Melina Def Trish Stratus Edge Def Batista to retain the WWE Title

NewsEdge announced on his website the other day that he was issuing an open challenge to the champions on ECW, TNA and Smackdown. Edge announced that on ECW’s last show before the Pay Per View (SummerSeries) he would show up to personally extend the challenge to Rob Van Dam (ECW Champion) then to Smackdown’s Champion whether it be Rey Mysterio still or whether Ken Kennedy can pick up an outstanding win, Edge plans on adding either one to the match. Then he plans to move on and extend the olive branch to former Tag Team Partner and current NWA Champion Christian Cage. Edge has went on the record as saying “This match is going to be the match of the lifetime.
Vince McMahon has announced that 25 superstars between now and the time SummerSeries rolls around will be released from there contracts. Vince McMahon did not delve deeper into who it would be but stated “With the size of the roster, these superstars would simply be lost in the shuffle of all the action and he had to cut the fat”
The card for SummerSeries as it stands now is as follows in no particular order: Raw's Best Vs SD's Best Vs ECW's best Vs TNA's Best Carlito (RAW) Vs Chris Benoit (SD) Vs CM Punk (ECW) Vs Low-Ki (TNA)
#1 Contender for any World Title they wish Kurt Angle (ECW) Vs Chris Jericho (RAW) Vs Rep from TNA Vs Rep from SD!
Ultimate Survival Gauntlet Match (4 wrestlers (1 from every brand) enter the ring at the same time. These 4 wrestlers compete for 10 minutes and after 10 minutes, the person with the least number of falls is eliminated. The last person remaining in the ring is the winner) The Undertaker (SD) Vs Ric Flair (Raw) Vs Big Show (ECW) Vs Sting (TNA)
Degeneration X (Shawn Michaels (RAW), Triple H (RAW) and Jeff Hardy (TNA)) Vs Paparazzi Productions (Alex Shelley (TNA), Johnny Devine (TNA) and Kevin Nash (TNA))
Don’t forget, the first WWECW:TNA Pay Per View is this Sunday so expect a lot more developments in the upcoming week.
WWECW:TNA has unveiled it’s poster for the Pay Per View on the official websitePower 151. EdgeEdge started the week off with a rather impressive showing against Rob Van Dam, picking up a win and the WWE title on ECW on Sci-Fi. The streak continued when Edge defeated Batista to retain his title. Now Edge has SummerSeries to think about and champions from 3 other shows... has Edge bit more then he can chew?2. Rey MysterioRey Mysterio picked up a win over Scott Steiner through Disqualification due to Ken Kennedy’s interference. Mysterio faces Kennedy on Smackdown for the World Heavyweight Championship. Will the champ keep his title and possibly move up the ranks in the Power 15?3. Christian CagePicking up the win over CM Punk to remain TNA Champion was one hell of a way to be welcomed into the WWECW for TNA’s World Champ. Christian Cage now has the time to sit back and ponder the challenge that has been levied by former tag team partner Edge.4. BatistaBatista destroyed Randy Orton on Smackdown but fell victim to the numbers game from Jericho and Edge. The only way now to get back at both of them is to see about getting into the challenge that has been set up by Kurt Angle. Will Batista take up Kurt on his challenge at getting a chance at any World Title he wants? Or will the Animal pass up the opportunity to get his hands around the neck of Chris Jericho and Edge?5. D-Generation XDX picked one up against the Spirit Squad despite Paparazzi Productions best efforts to get back at DX for interrupting there probably long winded speech. DX added a new member to there group in former Raw and current TNA superstar Jeff Hardy. Now it’s DX Vs Paparazzi Productions at SummerSeries. Can DX stay one step ahead of the group of TNA stars? 6. Paparazzi ProductionsA very dominating showing that only DX is capable of raining on. Let’s hope the reign will continue for them when Johnny Devine takes on Samoa Joe for the X-Division Title on iMPACT. This match will prove if Devine would have been capable of beating Petey Williams if Alex Shelley hadn’t interfered.7. CM PunkBeat Shannon Moore on ECW on Sci-Fi and had Christian Cage reeling until Benoit and Low-Ki provided a distraction. Now that the match Punk wanted is set in stone, will Punk be able to get the upper hand he needs in order to come out of his planned match on top?9. Kurt AngleKurt Angle threw out the challenge, so far Chris Jericho has accepted. Does Kurt have something in store for the other 3 combatants come Sunday?10. MelinaMelina looked primed for a shot at the Womens title after making such short work of 6-Time Womens champion, Trish Stratus. Is a title match in order for Miss Melina?11. LashleyStruggled in a battle to retain his United States title against Joey Mercury but once warmed up promplty disposed of the challenge to retain. Lashley has his sites geared on Summer Series where he has said that he has someone in mind for a match...12. Joey MercuryKept Lashley on his toes during his match and let Lashley know that even though he won this match, Mercury wasn’t finished with him. Mercury finds himself without a match for the rest of the week which gives him plenty of time to scout out Lashley.13. Finlay and RegalThis duo defeated London and Kendrick on SD in dominating fashion. These two just prepared themselves to be right at the top of the list of challengers for the Tag Team Titles14. Chris Jericho Though he didn’t have a match this week, Jericho let the world know that he is back. After taking out Batista to help Edge retain the WWE Title, Jericho announced to the world that he was first to take up Kurt Angle on his number 1 contenders match offer.15. CarlitoCarlito showed that he is ready for CM Punk, Chris Benoit and Low-Ki when he fended off the Anaconda Vice/Sharpshooter combo from Benoit and Punk with minimal effort. Carlito looks for redemption after being screwed out of the Intercontinental TitleContendersTNA World Heavyweight Title1. Jeff Jarrett 2. Scott Steiner 3. Austin AriesWWE Title1. John Cena 2.

Benoit made a proposition to Punk that Punk just couldn't pass up, Why not add superstars from TNA and Raw into the mix. Benoit made the choice of Low-Ki from TNA and Carlito from Raw.#1 Contender for any World Title they wishKurt Angle (ECW) Vs Chris Jericho (RAW) Vs Batista (SD!) Vs Raven (TNA) One week ago, Kurt Angle proposed that one superstar from every brand take him up on the challenge of a Number 1 Contenders match for any World Title on any brand. Chris Jericho was the first to accept... During ECW on Sci-Fi, Jericho attempted to attack Angle from behind but Batista would have none of that, announcing his participation in the match. Jericho declared that a former ECW now TNA superstar Raven would have his back. Is Jericho telling the truth? Or does Raven have other plans participating in this match?Ultimate Survival Gauntlet Match (4 wrestlers (1 from every brand) enter the ring at the same time.

Live from the Wachovia Spectrum in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, the ECW Faithful were fired up for what promised to be an electric show. The show kicked off with a match that was sure to fail in the disappointment department if you were looking for a quality hardcore beating. Sandman took on Shannon Moore and that is exactly what it was, a hardcore beating. The match started and almost immediately it was over, with one swift shot to the head with a Singapore Cane from Sandman, Moore was out cold and Sandman decided to end it there and then. Backstage, a limo was arrived which came bearing 2 Raw superstars in Edge and Chris Jericho. Both men walked into the arena. Jericho and Edge turned down separate hallways as things went backstage to where Kurt Angle was standing
Kurt started talking about how it is ridiculous that only one superstar has accepted his challenge laid out one week ago. Kurt expected everyone to be chomping at the bit but the only man who accepted is a man who wasn’t even on the roster when he laid out the challenge in Chris Jericho. Angle said that if he didn’t get an answer tonight from either Smackdown or TNA that he would show up on both shows and challenge someone to meet him in the ring then. Angle then put in his mouth guard and made his way out for his match. Kurt Angle Vs Test was Test’s defining moment to see if he belonged in ECW or on Raw and Smackdown. Test did an excellent job on keeping the Wrestling Machine at bay for most of the match, even having the Olympic Gold Medalist reeling on the brink of defeat. Angle turned the tides when he stopped the Big Boot with an Ankle Lock. Test began scrambling towards the ropes in a desperate attempt to not have to tap out. Right when it looked like Test was going to tap out, Chris Jericho came out and tossed a chair into the ring. While the ref was getting that chair out of the ring, Jericho came into the ring with a pair of Brass Knuckles and cleaned Angles clock. Jericho put the Knucks in his pocket as Test picked Angle up onto his shoulders and delivered the Test Knock Out.
After the match, Test walked to the back as Jericho continued his brutal assault on Angle when out from the back came Smackdown Superstar and the man who Jericho screwed out of the WWE Title, BATISTA!. Batista rolled into the ring at the same time as Jericho rolled out. Batista looked at Jericho running then looked at Angle. Batista helped Angle up onto his feet. Batista grabbed a mic and declared that he is tired of the same old song and dance from Jericho. He pulled it on Raw and he tried to pull it again tonight and he will try to pull it at SummerSeries... but not when Batista is in the match. Batista then told Angle he is joining in on the fun at SummerSeries and went on to shake Angles hand. Jericho declared it wasn’t fair and that they couldn’t do this... Jericho then thought about it and said that there is one man on the TNA roster who is more Extreme then Angle and more Smash Mouth then Batista. Jericho said that on behalf of TNA, he will accept for one man who couldn’t be there... Jericho declared that TNA’s Raven will want nothing more then to have his back at SummerSeries to keep the two from double teaming him. Jericho then tossed down the mic and held out his arms like Raven.
Backstage, CM Punk was talking about how he almost had Christian on Impact for the NWA World Heavyweight Title. CM Punk however had other things on his mind that were occupying his focus. But now he is 100% focused and this time he will have the ECW title because he knows his opponents at SummerSeries aren’t here tonight. Punk went on to guarantee victory and when he won tonight that he would not only take on Benoit, Carlito and Low-Ki but he would also be the first to accept Edge’s challenge for the Quadra-Brand title match. A short video played showing how crazy Sabu has been in the past and the lengths he was willing to go to in order to win. Sabu Vs Justin Credible was the next match. The match was short but still was very back and forth. Sabu and Credible were both bleeding by the end of the contest and Sabu picked up the win over Credible with the Arabian Facebuster. Sabu is now the official Number 1 Contender for the ECW title and he gets a match next week against whoever the champ may be next week.
Edge was backstage and talked about how he appreciated CM Punk’s hunger for combat and if he had things his way, it would be Punk who walked out of Philly with the ECW Title... Edge then stopped talking to ponder as he walked away. It was now Main Event time and the fans in Philly were anticipating this match all night and with good reason. This match was highly competitive and a very back and forth battle. Punk locked in the Anaconda Vice several times but they were all escaped from RVD. RVD brought a chair into the ring and attempted to toss the chair at Punk for the Van Daminator but it was Punk who tossed the chair back to RVD and hit a Van Daminator of his own. RVD eventually gained the upper hand long enough to have Punk set up for the 5-Star Frogsplash but Edge came out and pushed RVD off the top rope. Edge and RVD began brawling as Carlito, Benoit and Low-Ki all rushed out to brawl with each other and Punk. RVD Began getting the upper hand and hit a Van Daminator on Edge and Punk, Benoit, Carlito and Ki all left to the back. RVD grabbed a microphone and told a KO’d Edge that he accepts his challenge at SummerSeries...Quick Results: Sandman Def Shannon Moore- 66% Overall Test Def Kurt Angle- 70% Overall Sabu Def Justin Credible- 70% Overall RVD NC CM Punk- 83% Overall

Live from the Conseco Fieldhouse in Indianapolis Indiana, Smackdown was riddled with action. No more then 72 hours from SummerSeries, things continued brewing towards the Pay Per View. At the beginning of the show we once again saw the arrival of Edge to the arena as he promised in his web article. Edge was in Indianapolis for but one reason... to view the outcome of the World Heavyweight Title match... but before that could happen, a few other matches had to occur, some of which were World Title quality in and of themselves. First up was Chris Benoit Vs Booker T. These two have had many back and forth battles over the years and this one was no different. The two brought an intensity unrivaled by anyone before them. Booker took the advantage early on in the match and kept the Wolverine on his toes but it would be Benoit who battled back. Just when Benoit had locked in the Crossface, CM Punk from ECW came running out and ruined the match for Benoit. Benoit released the hold as Punk laid in with stiff kicks to the ribs before locking in the Anaconda Vice. Security had to come out and separate the two men before Punk choked Benoit out completely. Punk shouted obscenities at Benoit as he was being taken to the back.
Backstage, The Animal was talking about how if it wasn’t for Kurt Angle’s challenge he would have just straight up challenged Jericho to a singles match. But after Jericho accepted Angles challenge he had figured why not hit two birds with one stone. Not only would he beat Jericho but he would become Number 1 Contender for any World Title he wished... and he would be coming for the man who shouldn’t have the title anymore... Edge! Elsewhere, Joey Mercury was talking about how Lashley lucked out last week when he won the match but he had what Lashley wanted... Lashley’s United States title. Mercury said that since he already had a match tonight that Lashley would have to wait HIS turn to face Mercury for the United States title. Mercury threw the United States title over his shoulder and walked away.
The next match was a barn burner. The former World Heavyweight Champion in Batista taking on the younger, brasher and surefire Future World Heavyweight Champion in Joey Mercury. Mercury caught Batista off guard with a flurry of quick ground and pound offense. But it wasn’t long before Batista caught up and turned the tables which is when Mercury began taking a more Technical approach to things but that was stopped by Batista as well. Mercury attempted to go to an aerial tactic but Batista knocked that down in record time. The end was nearing when all of a sudden, Chris Jericho ran out and hit a face buster on Batista. Jericho then hit a Lionsault, all the while Mercury had the ref distracted. Batista stirred but Mercury took him back down with the Double Underhook DDT. Mercury covered Batista and got the 3 count! Jericho walked to the back laughing all the way but stopped to raise Joey Mercury’s arm in the air. Batista looked furious.
Backstage again, MISTAH KENNEDY.... KENNEDY was talking about the impact that he made last week on Smackdown... That impact was the splat Rey Mysterio made on the guard rail last week. Kennedy realized that Scotty Steiner was probably a little bit upset with him but Kennedy didn’t care. Kennedy should be getting the title shots before any TNA schmucks move in. Kennedy guarenteed victory tonight because he had a little trick up his sleeve.
Out in the ring, it was time for the first of the two Title matches on this show. London and Kendrick were being forced into another match with Finlay and Regal but this time it was for the Tag Team Titles. The match went almost the same as last week, Regal and Finlay used there expertise brawling to ground the high flying London and Kendrick. Towards the end of the match, Finlay was in the ring when Regal blind tagged Finlay. Finlay wasn’t too pleased with this from Regal and picked up his Schelale and cleaned Regal’s clock with it. Finlay left the ring in disgust as London rolled up Regal to retain the Tag Team Titles.
Once more backstage, Rey Mysterio didn’t mince words. Rey said that he had Steiner beaten until Kennedy came out. Rey Mysterio said that he was going to do to Kennedy what he would have already done to Steiner before Kennedy came out... win the match. With that said it was Main Event time. The most shocking Main Event in Smackdown history it was Ken Kennedy Vs Rey Mysterio for the World Heavyweight Championship. The match was any mans guess as to who had a definitive advantage. In this highly contested bout there were several near falls. The end came in unbelievable fashion. Rey had Kennedy set up for the 619 and was running towards the ropes when Edge came onto the Titan Tron and on the floor at his feet was a gagged and hog tied Vicky Guerrero. Rey Mysterio was distracted by this and so was the referee, long enough for Kennedy to pull out a pair of Brass Knucks and lay out Rey. Kennedy climbed up to the top turnbuckle and delivered on a MASSIVE Kenton Bomb. And in a match that will be forever riddled in controversy, Ken Kennedy became the NEW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION! After the match was over, Kennedy stood in the ring with his World title over his shoulder and Rey sitting on the mat in disbelief. Edge came out finally and declared that it would have been nice if Rey Mysterio could have joined him in his Grand Title match at SummerSeries but there were no losers permitted. Edge entered the ring and demanded Rey Mysterio get out of the ring. Rey was ready to throw a fist but decided against it and walked to the back with his hands over his face. Kennedy said that it would be his honor to participate in Edge’s match. Edge said that with a performance like that, he would be honored to have Kennedy in that match. Kennedy and Edge then shook hands as the show endedQuick Results: Booker T Def Chris Benoit due to Punk’s interference- 72% Overall Joey Mercury Def Batista due to Jericho’s interference- 67% Overall The Hooliganz Def Regal and Finlay- 72% Overall Ken Kennedy Def Rey Mysterio to become NEW World Heavyweight Champion- 68% Overall

Edge arriving into the arena for that only reason is very interesting. Let's we how this turns out... CM Punk interfering in the Booker/Benoit match was good. I can't wait to see where this Punk/Benoit goes to. That backstage segment seems interesting. Batista is hungry for gold. Can he take the gold? Nice, Mercury picks up the win. That was a shocker for sure. Ken Kennedy seems like he's on a quest too. I kind of figured London and Kendrick would retain, which is very good. I'm glad they retained. WOW! Now THAT was a shocker! Ken Kennedy is the new World Champion. I never would have thought that.
Very good diary. I'll be reading it from now on.

Just 24 hours from SummerSeries, Impact got the privilege of being the last stop before SummerSeries in Memphis. The TNA fans were stoked in Raleigh, North Carolina as TNA ran from it’s biggest venue yet in the RBC Center. To start the show off was a title match which pitted Paparazzi Productions member Johnny Devine against the X-Division Champion Samoa Joe. The catch was that Kevin Nash, the apparent ring leader of Paparazzi Productions, was banned from ringside. Before the match however it would appear different, Kevin Nash hadn’t even arrived at the arena yet so it was only Alex Shelley and Johnny Devine going over strategy to beat the big man. After they had a plan hammered out, a confident Johnny Devine marched in the ring and bravely took the bull known as Samoa Joe head on. Devine found out quickly why so many X-Division wrestlers feared Samoa Joe as Joe began kicking the living crapout of Johnny Devine. It was all Joe for most of the match with Devine struggling to get as much offense in as he could but Joe didn’t allow much. Joe had Devine up for the Muscle Buster but Alex Shelley came running down to the ring with his Tripod and bent it over the back of Joe. Joe let Devine down as he was holding his back. Devine came charging at Joe with a running knee that rocked the big man. Devine did a standing missile dropkick that took the big man off his feet. Devine then grabbed a chair and climbed to the top rope. Devine came off the top rope with the Love Generation Moonsault but before impact, Devine slipped the chair under his chest and came down with the chair across Joe. Devine made the cover as he slid the chair out of the ring and picked up a 3 count! Devine ran and grabbed the X-Division Title from the time keeper before running to the back with Alex Shelley.
Backstage was NWA World Heavyweight Champion who said that his former Tag Team partner Edge had already arrived at the arena earlier today. Christian said that after the Main Event tonight, Christian wants to see Edge in the middle of the ring. There was then an interview with Low Ki where he began talking about how tonight was nothing more then a warm up match for his match with Punk, Benoit and Carlito. Low-Ki said that if any of them were watching tonight to take notes because this is what it means to be the greatest on the roster. AJ Styles Vs Low-Ki was an extremely competitive match up with anyone’s guess as to who would win the match. Low-Ki showed off his amazing martial arts background with the stiff kicks that rocked AJ. AJ began showing his aerial techniques as good as anyone could. Ki had AJ set up for the Ki-Krusher when Carlito from RAW came running out behind the ref and Low-Ki and delivered the Lungblower. AJ Styles capitalized on this interference and picked Ki up to deliver one hell of a Styles Clash. AJ picked up the win and left the ring. Carlito returned to the ring and continued the assault on Low-Ki which is when CM Punk came running out and attacked Carlito. Low-Ki and Punk began double teaming Carlito which prompted Chris Benoit to come running out to even the odds on Carlito. Punk squared off with Benoit, Ki squared off with Carlito and they all were brawling. Security came rushing out to try to keep the four men apart but things have hit a fever pitch between these 4 who live for competition and they managed to break free and start again. It took three tries until they finally had them completely restrained.
Backstage, Monty Brown was calling Jeff Hardy a traitor. He was claiming that TNA had to stick together to keep there own identity and that means supporting Nash, Shelley and Devine, not fighting against them. Monty said that tonight someone would feel... the... POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOUNCE-AH... PERIOD! On the other side of the arena, Jeff Hardy was hanging out with Shawn Michaels and Triple H wearing his newly earned DX shirt. Shawn was talking about how this was probably going to be his last appearence in a TNA ring and to make a lasting impression. The next match was Monty Brown Vs Jeff Hardy. Hardy got manhandled for most of the match except for near the end when Jeff nailed a mule kick to the lower region of Monty. Jeff was prepared for a Swanton when Kevin Nash came out and held on to Jeff’s leg. Shawn Michaels came out and super kicked Kevin Nash off the apron but Kevin’s distraction gave time enough for Johnny Devine to come out and clock Hardy with the X-Division Title. The ref called for the bell and declared it a no contest as Triple H came out and a massive brawl ensued between DX and Paparazzi Productions. Security had more action as they also had to separate these men.
Rhino was backstage and said that a week ago he was upset about not being on the show. If it wasn’t Paparazzi Productions, it was wannabe ECW wrestlers invading his TV Time. Rhino said that he went to Jim Cornette and demanded a match and Cornette gave him what he wanted. Cornette declared that Rhino would give Rhino a match with Jeff Jarrett. Rhino thought about it for a week and declared that wasn’t enough and he wanted to be awarded with something. So at the beginning of the night, Cornette officially changed the match to a Number 1 Contenders match against Christian next week for the NWA World Title. Rhino declared “That’s more like it”. In the ring, Raven came out and got on the mic. He said that recently, Kurt Angle had issued an open challenge and now there was Chris Jericho and Batista in his match. Raven then talked about how Jericho extended the invitation to him personally on ECW on Sci-Fi. Raven said that he had no problem accepting it and he declared that at SummerSeries... there was going to be some rude awakenings. Raven dropped the mic and left the ring to let the Main Event get under way. Rhino Vs Jarrett was one of the best matches in TNA history and it was happening once again for the pleasure of the Raleigh fans. The two competitors knew what was on the line and didn’t want to let up one little bit. It was even up until the last few minutes which is when Christian Cage came out to ringside to get ready for his in ring encounter with Edge. Jeff Jarrett was distracted but Rhino was completely focused 100%. Jarrett turned around only to encounter a Gore of gargantuan proportions. Rhino covered and won the match and will meet Christian next week. As soon as the match ended, Edge hit the ring and congratulated Rhino on the win and told him to hit the showers. Edge stared at Christian and smiled, pointing out that for the first time in history Edge and Christian were World Champion’s at the exact same show... Edge said it was almost as if they were Tag Team Champs again but on a grander scale. Christian stopped Edge and told him he didn’t want to hear any of that lovey dovey mushy crap from Edge. Christian asked Edge if he had anything to say to him and Edge in fact asked Christian straight up if he wanted to be in his match at SummerSeries and Christian simply answered yes. Edge thanked Christian and said that SummerSeries is going to be great because he is going to love every minute of what was about to happen which is when Ken Kennedy attacked Christian from behind. Kennedy hopped onto the turnbuckle as Edge beat Christian down. Edge gave Christian to Kennedy who hoisted him into a Fireman’s Carry and came off the top rope with the Greenbay Plunge. The show ended with Edge and Kennedy again shaking hands.Quick Results Johnny Devine Def Samoa Joe to become NEW X-Division Champion AJ Styles Def Low-Ki Jeff Hardy NC Monty Brown Rhino Def Jeff Jarrett to become Number 1 Contender for the NWA Heavyweight Title

Devine winning the title was a good move, but only if Joe is going to be pushed higher. Summerslam looks pretty stacked, and it should be a great event.
