I like this diary so far. It's good to see that you are giving Kennedy a World Title Push, that's awesome and it's cool to see Aries in the Main Event. Devine getting the title is a good idea, it opens a world of new chalangers. Overall, good diary so far and can't wait for the next show.

Thanks for all the comments guys and here is the PPV... a little later then anticipated but it's good Live. From the FedEx Forum in Memphis Tennessee, World Wide Extreme Championship Wrestling: Total Nonstop Action presents SummerSeries. The first PPV since WWE bought out the TNA roster on July 31st. Tonight is a culmination of the last two weeks of build since the merger. To celebrate, opening the show was Memphis’ own homegrown Rock Group Saliva to sing the theme song for SummerSeries which was Pride off there album “Back Into Your System”. Opening the show was the Grudge match that was announced on WWECWTNA.com after Friday Night Smackdown which was Finlay Vs William Regal. The match was a slobberknocker contest that was hard hitting and technically sound. Neither men would let up on the pressure on the other. Finlay would deliver a knee to the chin of Regal, Regal would retaliate with a knee of his own. Finlay attempted to use the Schalelae midway through the match but it was well scouted by Regal. Regal slipped on a pair of Brass Knuckles and attempted to deliver a little taste of old Regal with the Power Of The Punch. Finlay scouted that and grabbed Regal’s arm and twisting it behind his back in a Hammerlock. Regal hiptossed out of it and went for a cover which was averted by Finlay. The match went this way for a few more minutes when the ref was knocked out. Regal recovered his Brass Knuckles and slipped them on. At the same time, Finlay recovered his Schalelae. Regal nailed the Power Of The Punch at the same time as Finlay cleaned the clock of Regal. The ref stood up and began to count both men out. Just before the count of 10, Finlay draped an arm over the chest of Regal and began to count. 1.....2....... KICKOUT! Finlay and Regal continued to battle but one fatal mistake opened Regal up and Finlay delivered the Irish Cross and covered Regal for the win. Finlay celebrated as focus changed to backstage where cameras were in the locker room of Edge and Kennedy.
Kennedy thanked Edge for helping him do what should have been done a long time ago. Edge said no problem and thanked Kennedy for helping him deliver a message to Christian on Impact last night. Kennedy told Edge it was “No Sweat” but went on to say that even though him and Edge are on the same page, if Christian and RVD are both out of the picture then it won’t be out of the question for him to turn his attention on Edge and try to beat him as well. Edge said he wouldn’t have it any other way. The two shook hands and left the locker room.
Back to the action, one of the most anticipated matches was coming up now in ECW’s CM Punk Taking on Smackdown’s Chris Benoit, TNA’s Low-Ki and Raw’s Carlito. It was physically impossible for one man to gain the upper hand in this match with one fresh man always hanging around. An extremely high energy match that the fans got into as well. Carlito and Benoit formed a short lived alliance to take Low-Ki out of the ring. After they did that, the alliance was over and Benoit laid a rocking left hand into the jaw of Carlito. Benoit went for a cover but Punk was around to break that up. Punk locked in the Anaconda Vice onto Benoit forcing him to nearly tap out but lucky for Benoit, Low-Ki broke up the hold with a stern kick to the ribs of CM Punk. Low-Ki’s smash mouth style allowed him to gain an upperhand that was quickly knocked down by the all-rounder Carlito. Momentum was then stolen from Carlito by the Technical Prowess of Benoit and Punk. Punk and Benoit locked in the Anaconda Vice/Sharpshooter combo onto Carlito but they were kicked off by Low-Ki. CM Punk managed to eventually divide up the forces by tossing a dueling Low Ki and Carlito out of the ring. Punk was left in the ring with Benoit, Benoit attempted to take down Punk with the Crossface but that was reversed into a Russian Leg Sweep into the corner turnbuckle. Punk ascended the turnbuckle with Benoit with him. Punk then hooked the arms of Benoit in the form of a Pedigree and with that, Punk leaped off the top rope with the Pepsi Plunge. Punk laid on the mat for a few moments before crawling over to make the cover on Benoit. Punk picked up the 3 and raised his arms in victory. He then crossed his arms in the shape of an X and bellowed “I AM BETTER THAN YOU!”
Tonight’s announce team consisted of Jim Ross, Joey Styles, Michael Cole and Todd Grisham with dueling Color Commentators Jerry Lawler, Tazz, JBL and Shane Douglas. The 8 man announce team had to put there quarreling aside to prepare for the next match which was the Number 1 Contenders match for ANY World Heavyweight Title they pleased. Kurt Angle from ECW, Batista from Smackdown, Chris Jericho from Raw and Raven from TNA. At the very beginning of the match, Batista and Kurt Angle joined forces and turned there eyes on Jericho. Jericho went to Raven and the two shook hands. Jericho shoved Raven into Batista, Raven stood there in front of Jericho and seperating him from Angle and Batista. Raven then turned around and cleaned Jericho’s clock with a huge right hand. From that moment on it was anybodies match. Batista would hit a Spinebuster on Jericho and get up right into a German Suplex from Angle who would stand up and receive a knee to the back from Raven. None of the competitors would let anyone else gain the upper hand in this match. Raven delivered a Raven Effect on Jericho but before he could pin him he was taken out with an Angle Slam. Angle had no time to react as Batista delivered a HUGE Batista Bomb. Batista realized everyone was out and stared at Jericho. He asked for the crowds approval and when he gave the thumbs down, the Memphis crowd became unglued. Batista picked up the lifeless Jericho and Batista Bombed him nearly through the mat. Batista pinned Jericho and picked up the win. After the match, Batista got on the mic and declared that he already knows who it is that he is going to challenge using his Title Shot he has now but everyone would have to wait until the end of the night to see who it is. Batista then got out of the ring as things were set up around ringside.
Two holding cells were brought out to the ring. Lillian Garcia got on the mic and announced changes to the Ultimate Gauntlet match., After a 10 minute interval, the 2 Superstars with the highest number of pinfalls will be locked in the respective holding cells, temporarily taken out of the match. After 5 minutes in the cell, they will be released in which time the 2 Superstars will be released back into the match, fresh as possible. From then on it goes into normal Ultimate Survival style of match. The purpose of the holding cells were described as being advantageous because the superstars in the cell get a chance of resting for 5 minutes while the other 2 competitors will be battling for falls, possibly getting a leg up when the actual competition starts. The competitors were Sting from TNA, Ric Flair from Raw, The Undertaker from Smackdown and The Big Show from ECW. After 10 minutes of hard fought, back and forth action, the falls were as followed. Sting had 2, Flair had 2, Undertaker had 1 and Big Show and 0 which meant that Sting and Flair were escorted out of the ring and into the separate holding cells where bottles of water and a bench was all there was. After 5 minutes of resting, Flair and Sting were released and at this point it was Sting: 2, Flair: 2, Undertaker: 2, and Big Show: 1. The real contest bore on as the competitors were striving for upper hands. The Competitors were battling hard and after yet another 10 minutes, the scores remained the same and a weary Big Show was sent to the back and the match continued with a weakened Undertaker in the ring with a still relatively fresh Ric Flair and Sting. After the match had been going for the 35 minute mark the scores remained the same still and had a struggling Undertaker fending off the onslaught of the 2 competitors who were just starting to deplete in conditioning. Undertaker held strong and while he dropped a fall to Sting, he picked one up over Ric Flair putting the scores at 3 for Sting, 3 for Taker and 2 for Flair. The 45 minute mark passed and Flair was unable to pick up yet another fall and was shown to the back. With it being a singles match it went to sudden death now with the next man to get a fall being declared the winner. With the clock still running, it wasn’t until the 54 minute mark that the final fall was scored. Sting attempted the Stinger Death Drop but it was reversed into the Tombstone Piledriver from the Undertaker. Sting however dropped out of it behind Undertaker and this time hit the Stinger Death Drop on The Undertaker for the win!
Backstage, RVD And Christian Cage were in one locker room. Christian said that he had enough of Edge’s crap and the reason he went to TNA in the first place was to escape from Edge’s crap he did. RVD said that while Edge has been a pain in his ass for the last 2 weeks, there was another man who needs full attention. Chrsitian told RVD that the Greenbay Plunge is no fun so they need to focus on avoiding that one at all costs. Christian and RVD agreed to join forces but like Kennedy said to Edge, there was no holding them back from tearing each other apart after they had Edge and Kennedy out of the way. The two shook hands and left the locker room.
Next match was the most anticipated Tag Team Match that wasn’t without it’s own surprises. Paparazzi Production used the speed of Alex Shelley, the Technical abilities of Johnny Devine and the Power of Kevin Nash to keep DX at bay for a large portion of the match, mostly isolating Jeff Hardy in the corner, cutting the ring in half. Eventually Jeff managed a tag to Triple H who turned up the fire, taking out Devine and Shelley and using help from HBK to take down Kevin Nash. It was nearing the end of the match and Kevin Nash and Alex Shelley were down outside the ring and Triple H had Johnny Devine set up for the Pedigree when the lights went out. Suddenly, a howl is heard throughout the arena as the arena lights go red. Triple H tosses Devine down who rolls outside of the ring to join Shelley and Nash. Triple H, Shawn Michaels and Jeff Hardy along with Johnny Devine, Alex Shelley and Kevin Nash turned there attention to the entrance ramp where emerging from it was former Raw General Manager and former owner of WCW Eric Bischoff came out. Bischoff pointed at DX and smiled before pointing to the back. Out from the entrance came Chris Jericho. Jericho pointed back and out came Johnny Nitro followed by Randy Orton. All of these men were wearing nWo Wolfpac shirts and they rushed down to the ring, running past Paparazzi Productions and beat down DX. Johnny Devine being the legal man rolled into the ring after an RKO/ Lionsault/ Standing Shooting Star Press onto Jeff Hardy. Johnny climbed the turnbuckle and hit the Love Generation Moonsault to pick up the win. Paparazzi Productions left the ring as The Wolfpack spray painted the logo on the backs of all three members of D-Generation X. The group left the ring, high fiving each other as Bischoff looked on with pleasure, smiling the whole while.
It was now time for the SummerSeries Main Event which was the Non-Title Champ Vs Champ Vs Champ Vs Champ matchup. Edge laid out the challenge on Monday. On Tuesday it was accepted by RVD, on Friday it was accepted by the new World Heavyweight Champion Ken Kennedy and on Saturday it was accepted by Christian Cage. A lot of scores needed to be settled in this match and this match was a very hardly fought contest. RVD and Christian formed their alliance early on and tried to divide Kennedy from Edge to really get to Edge. Kennedy however fought back and twice as hard as Cage and Van Dam. Kennedy managed to separate Cage from RVD leaving RVD with Edge all to himself. Kennedy began getting an upper hand on Cage while Edge was having difficulty with Christian. Edge told Kennedy to switch spots and Kennedy began working on RVD. Kennedy was very dominant in this contest until Edge was temporarily taken out of the equation to which RVD and Christian pooled their resources to ground and pound the World Heavyweight Champion, Kennedy. Edge got back in the ring and disposed of RVD. After Edge and Kennedy took Christian out for a few moments, Edge attempted a pin which Kennedy broke up. Edge got up and shoved Kennedy, Kennedy came back with a slap that killed all tastebuds in Edge’s mouth. Kennedy tossed Edge out of the ring and focused on RVD for himself. Kennedy attempted the Greenbay Plunge at one point but Christian was there to stop it from happening. Christian and RVD worked Kennedy over but Kennedy was still somehow able to fight off Christian and RVD. Christian attempted an Unprettier but Kennedy shoved Christian off into the ropes and when he came back, hoisted him into the air and nailed a huge Powerslam. Kennedy got up and turned around right into an attempted roundhouse kick from RVD which was ducked. Kennedy delivered an Arn Anderson like Spinebuster. Kennedy was on a roll and took a moment to taunt the crowd who were impartial to him. Kennedy turned around into a huge spear from Edge. Edge waited and made fun of Kennedy’s ring introductions. Suddenly, down the ramp came the New Number 1 contender for any person’s title that is in the ring. Batista stood by the ringside as Edge tried to lock in the Sharpshooter but was kicked off by Kennedy into the ref. Edge looked around and grabbed tried to grab his title but Batista wouldn’t let him. Edge went back into the ring and delivered an Edge-cution on Kennedy. Batista got into the ring and delivered a massive Spinebuster to Edge followed by a Batista bomb. Batista told Kennedy to go to the top rope as Kennedy looked on, confused. Batista hoisted Edge up onto the shoulders of Kennedy as Kennedy delivered the Greenbay Plunge onto Edge. Batista woke up the ref who counted the 1, 2, 3 for the win. Kennedy looked up at Batista again as RVD and Christian rolled out of the ring. Kennedy was handed his title. Batista told Kennedy he didn’t want his title... yet. Kennedy smiled before calling for his microphone. Kennedy let out a bellowing MISTAAAAAAAAH KENNEDY!..... KENNEDY as the show came to an end.Quick Results: Finlay Def Regal- 68% Overall Punk Def Benoit, Carlito and Low-Ki- 80% Overall Batista Def Angle, Jericho and Raven- 82% Overall Paparazzi Productions Def D-Generation X- 73% Overall Ken Kennedy Def Edge, Christian Cage and Rob Van Dam- 80% Overall

MAJOR NEWS: ANGLE REQUESTS RELEASE.Kurt Angle was apparently unhappy with his position in the company for a few weeks now and the day after SummerSeries has requested his release and has been given it. Angle said that he was unhappy with the unhealthy amount of Superstars being piled into the WWE. Vince McMahon has stated that Angle was thinking about either retiring or training for the next Summer Olympics. "This is indeed a massive blow on us and Kurt Angle's presence will be missed in the locker room." Vince McMahon said that while Kurt was a massive superstar and losing him creates a big hole in the Smackdown locker room, Apparently there is someone coming into the company to help out Smackdown where the loss of Angle hurt it.

The fallout of Summerseries was just as electric as the Pay Per View itself. Grudges were put to rest but new ones were forged. Now, the Phillips Arena in Atlanta, Georgia was ready for another night of Monday Night Raw. The show kicked off with the newly formed nWo Wolfpac in the locker room talking about the night. WWE Champion Edge wandered into the locker room as they were talking about the Main Event. Jericho and Edge shook hands as they walked out of the locker room. Bischoff told the rest of the troops that it was there duty to make sure that Edge and Jericho don’t lose to DX tonight.
The first match of the night was one between 2 superstars who have a sort of past in Carlito and Chris Masters. The match wasn’t too long but it was a very back and forth contest with Masters gaining an upper hand but soon lost the upper hand when he went for the Master Lock but received a mule kick below the belt. Carlito stalked Masters for the Lungblower but before he could connect, Shelton Benjamin ran out and Super Kicked Carlito in the side of the head while the Ref was checking on Masters. Shelton rolled out of the ring and under the ring as Masters locked in the Master Lock. Carlito tapped and Shelton rolled back from under the ring. He went into the ring and hit an Exploder on Carlito. Shelton was about to leave but Vince McMahon came strolling out. Vince grabbed a mic and looked at Shelton. He said that he had been watching Raw, Smackdown and ECW for the last 2 weeks and notices a select few superstars that were a “vested interest” Vince said that all of these superstars had one thing in common, they have been fighting for some sort of gold for the last 2 weeks. Vince said that since Unforgiven was the next Pay Per View and it was only Raw, Smackdown and ECW that were involved in this next Pay Per View that there would be a 6- Man Ultimate Elimination Ladder Match between 2 superstars from Raw, 2 superstars from Smackdown and 2 superstars from ECW with the winner getting a shot at ANY title they want good for the next year. Vince said that since Carlito and Shelton haven’t been able to get along for a few weeks now that they would be the two superstars representing Raw in this Ladder match. Vince added that if any of the Raw superstars interacted with each other or any of the opponents on the other shows that they would be replaced and suspended from action for 30 days. Vince told the two superstars to get out of the ring as he had more important business to take care of. Vince declared then that after Unforgiven there would be a huge Tetra-Brand Draft Lottery. Raw would draft 5 Superstars from Smackdown, Smackdown would draft 5 superstars from ECW, ECW would draft 5 superstars from TNA and TNA would draft 5 superstars from Raw. Vince left the ring saying it’s time to shake things up a bit.
Backstage, John Cena discussed about how he was left off SummerSeries because he hadn’t made any impact last week. Cena said that tonight it is his turn to turn up the shine as he takes on a mystery opponent. Cena talked about how there was rumors that it was a person from Cena’s past that wants revenge on Cena for something. Cena said that he didn’t sweat it and whoever it was, he was going to step into the ring with an angry, fire breathing SOB.
The next match was for the Number 1 Contender for Shelton Benjamin’s Intercontinental Championship. Johnny Nitro came out with Randy Orton and Eric Bischoff to back him up. The match was a fairly Technically sound match when Haas had the advantage but when Nitro had the advantage it turned into more of a ground and pound effort from Nitro. Charlie Haas just about locked in the Haas Of Pain but Bischoff distracted the ref giving Orton an opportunity to enter the ring and nail an RKO on Haas. Nitro hit a Standing Shooting Star Press on Haas to pick up the win. After the match, Bischoff got into the ring with a can of spray paint and handed it to Nitro. Nitro spray painted a red nWo logo on the back of Haas.
Backstage, DX was standing and watching what was going on in the ring. Shawn Michaels was feigning fear as Jeff Hardy stood there, not saying anything. Triple H told Shawn that they have Edge and Jericho no problem but it is Nitro, Orton and Bischoff that they needed to worry about. Triple H told Jeff to go looking for the biggest person he could find to help keep Nitro, Orton and Bischoff away from ringside. Jeff nodded as he jogged out the door.
John Cena came out to the ring and wasted no time. Cena demanded that whoever wanted a piece of him come out right now. After about a minute of waiting, former WWE superstar Muhammed Hassan came from the crowd and clotheslined Cena in the back. Hassan then preceded to beat on Cena. Hassan hit the STO and quickly jumped to the Camel Clutch which Cena tapped out to. The fans were stunned at how quickly Cena tapped out as Hassan got on the microphone. Hassan declared that while the USA Network may have been, ironically, the only channel who he wasn’t too controversial for... that didn’t stop him from pointing out the prejudice nature of the United States Of America. Hassan went on to declare that he wanted to have his Undefeated streak back and he started with the person who ended it in the first place. Hassan said that he was going to move on to his first victim last time. Next week, Hassan declared that he would take on the “beloved” color commentator Jerry “The King” Lawler.
Jericho and Edge were backstage and briefly discussed strategy before walking away. Edge almost forgot his WWE Title but turned back and grabbed it. When Edge and Jericho got about halfway down the hallway, a man stepped in the way of the camera. The camera panned up to reveal that it was Smackdown Superstar, Batista who was the Number 1 Contender for any title he wanted.
DX Vs Edge and Jericho was an extremely competitive match with 4 VERY proud men participating in it. All 4 men didn’t want to be the one man who let there team down. Jericho and Edge worked well as a team, isolating Triple H from his Tag Team Partner. Triple H battled back from the double team efforts of Jericho and Edge which prompted Johnny Nitro, Randy Orton and Eric Bischoff to come strolling out to the ring. Jeff Hardy stood in the middle of the Entrance Ramp to stop them. Bischoff just laughed in the face of Jeff who didn’t back down. When Eric ordered Nitro and Orton to advance on Hardy, Jeff called for his back up and he truly did find the biggest people in the locker room. Out from the back to help Jeff came Snitsky and Kane who took out Nitro and Orton. Jeff looked straight into the eyes of Bischoff who looked worried now. Jeff let a right hand fly into the jaw of Bischoff, knocking him on his ass. Kane brawled with Orton through the crowd as Snitsky battled Nitro through the other side of the crowd. Jeff beat Bischoff up the ramp and into the backstage area. The ref was distracted by all this commotion that it enabled Jericho to clean HBK’s clock with brass knucks on the apron and allowed Edge to hit an Edgecution onto a chair. Edge kicked the chair out of the ring as he bellowed for the ref. Edge picked up the 1, 2, 3, Jericho tossed Edge a can of Red spray paint but he didn’t get too far with that venture as Batista’s theme song hit and Batista came out staring a hole straight through Edge. Batista got into the ring as Edge tried to throw a punch but it was blocked by Batista. Batista tossed Edge off into the ropes and got hit with a huge spine buster. Jericho came in and got a spine buster for his troubles as well. Batista then Batista Bombed both Jericho and Edge as the show came to an end.Quick Results: Chris Masters Defeated Carlito- 72% Overall Johnny Nitro Defeated Charlie Haas- 71% Overall Muhammed Hassan Defeated John Cena- 80% Overall Edge and Chris Jericho Defeated Triple H and Shawn Michaels- 95% OverallSuppose it was about time to actually update this as it's been just over a week
