Credit to JSin for the match graphics, he did an awesome job, and because of him, this PPV has match graphics. Sunday Night HeatWWE Tag Team ChampionshipsDave Taylor & William Regal vs KC James & Idol StevensDecent free match for the fans. The contenders match was left on the card instead because it was determined it would sell more. There was aa horrible event in this match though. KC James botched a powerbomb attempt when he dropped Dave Taylor on his head. Taylor was carried out of the ring on a stretcher. Regal managed to win the match by making Stevens submit to the Regal Stretch. Winners: Regal & TaylorThese two took it to the mat. The best Cruiserweight match of the year. London dominated for a lot of the contest, using some very good psychology. Kendrick missed a moonsault attempt, landing hard on his left knee. London worked on the knee for a lot of the match, using some good offense. He locked in a single leg Boston crab on the injured leg, but Kendrick managed to grab the rope. London didn't stop there though, he jumped on the ropes and hit a springboard moonsault right onto Kendrick's knee. He only got a two count on Kendrick, who then mounted an offense with an enzurguri, and then Kendrick managed to hit Sliced Bread #2,which put away London.Winner: Brian KendrickAnother great matchup. At the beginning, both Super Crazy & Jamie Noble teamed up on Gregory Helms, and they worked together for quite a while. They hit a double superplex from the top rope, and threw Helms over the top rope. They then locked up, with Noble taking crazy down, locking on a headscissors. Crazy gained soem momentum later with a dropkick that sent Noble to the ouyside right by Helms. As both Helms and Noble made it to their feet, Super Crazy launched himself over the top rope, taking them both down. Crazy rolled Helms into the ring, and prepared for a moonsault. But Helms was playing possum. He got up and ran to the corner. He grabbed Super Crazy, and slammed him to the mat. Noble got on the ring apron, but Helms knocked him back down. He then hit a Shining Wizard on Crazy to get the three count.Winner: Gregory Helms The shortest match of the night. That is because Booker T walked out on Shelton Benjamin about 2 minutes in. Benjamin still performed well, hitting a springboard neckbreaker on Matt Hardy, but the odds were too much for Shelton Benjamin, who was looking to regain his old tag team glory. Matt hit a twist of fate, and tagged in Jeff, who nailed the swanton bomb for the 3 count and a shot at the Tag Titles.Winners: Hardy BoyzCM Punk made his Smackdown! singles debut up against an old returning Smackdown! wrestler, RVD. These two never locked up in ECW before it shut down, so this match was new. They each had their fair share of offense, with each dominating their opponent at one time or another, but they couldn't put each other away. RVD twice escaped the Anaconda Vice, and CM Punk kicked out of 2 Five Star Frog Splashes. RVD went for rolling thunder, but CM Punk moved. Punk locked in the Anaconda Vice for the third time in the match, and RVD was about to tap when the bell rang, signaling for the end of the match. The time limit of 30 minutes had been reached. RVD tapped out just after the bell rang. Punk had the win in his grasp, but was screwed by the clock.Winner: DrawBoth DX and The Brothers of Destruction recieved huge ovations from the crowd. Weapons were laid out around the ring, including tables, chairs, garbage cans, and kendo sticks. The two teams stood across from each other in the ring. the moment was amazing. The match began with Triple H locking up with Kane and HBK locking up with Undertaker. Kane and Triple H brawled to the outside of the ring right away, while Undertaker and Shawn Michaels squared off inside the ring. Undertaker picked up HBK and nailed him with a sidewalk slam. on the outside, Kane smashed a garbage can over Triple H's head. Triple H fell to the ground, and Kane smashed the can on his head again. Kane rummaged underneath the ring, and grabbed a pizza cutter that was ynder there. he started grating Triple H's head open. Triple H stopped him after a few seconds with a low blow, causing Kane to drop the grater. Triple H picked it up and attacked Kane with it. Kane stopped him with an uppercut to Triple H's jaw. Both Kane and Triple H were bleeding from their heads pretty badly now.
On the inside, Undertaker irish-whipped HBK against the ropes. When HBK rebounded back, he nailed the flying burrito. He sprang up in classic HBK fashion, and started signalling for Sweet Chin Music. HBK stopped dead in his tracks when Undertaker just sat up. HBK rushed Taker, but Taker grabbed Shawn's neck. Undertaker stood up, and picked up HBK. He walked over to the side of the ring by the announcer tables, which was the opposite side Triple H and Kane were on. Undertaker chokeslammed HBk to the outside, right ot the floor!
Triple H dodged a chair shot from Kane, and nailed Kane with another low blow. Triple H set up for the pedigree, but Kane reversed, backdropping him to the floor. Kane dragged Triple H over to where Undertaker was. Undertaker went over to the Spanish announce table. He ripped out the monitors. Kane did the same thing with the Smackdown! announce table. Undertaker picked up HBK and got him in the chokeslam position in front of the spanish announce table. Kane did the same thing to Triple H at the smackdown announce table. The Brothers of Destruction each chokeslammed one of the oppoenents through an announce table, AT THE SAME TIME!
After about ten minutes, DX started to make a comeback. Shawn Michaels took control over Undertaker in the ring. Triple H and kane were on the outside, and they started brawling through the corwd, leaving HBK and Taker alone.
Undertaker took control again, giving HBK a backbreaker. Undertaker got HBK in position for a tombstone piledriver, and hit it. Undertaker stood up, and out of nowhere, SPEAR FROM EDGE! Edge had entered the ring and speared Undertaker. Edge grabbed HBK and dragged him on top of Undertaker. 1. . . 2. . . 3!Winners: DXRated R Challenge!Edge was now backstage, being itnerviewed by Josh Mathews. josh asked him why he interfered. Edge said it was simple. Although he hated DX, he couldn't let Smackdown! take the victory. Josh asked him where he'd go from here, and Edge said he needed to take some time off, to heal up his body and enjoy life back home in Toronto. He said he would be back in February. And then he made a challenge. He challenged The Undertaker to a match at Wrestlemania. Undefeated Streak vs Undefeated Streak. Both the World Heavyweight Championship and the United States Champiionship were on the line in this match. The first fall was Pinfall only, the second fall was Submission only, and the third fall, if neccessary, was a Street Fight.First FallBatista dominated for much of this fall, working a lot on Chris Benoit's back, using several power moves, including a half-nelson slam, three different variations of a backbreaker, a sidewalk slam, and a pumphandle slam. Benoit fought back with an attempt at the three german suplexes, but he only managed to hit two. Batista stopped the third one and hit a Spinebuster. Batista picked Benoit up in position for the Batista bomb, but Benoit rolled over his back and caught Batista in a roll-up. 1. . . 2. . . 3! Benoit gets the first fall, catching Batista with an unexpected pin!Second FallThis fall was extremely short. Batista was furious over the previous fall, and it showed. The first thing he did was nearly take Benoit's head off with a wicked clothesline. Batista then hit another spinebuster, followed by THREE BATISTA BOMBS! Batista then wisely locked Benoit in a bearhug. Benoit held up for a few seconds, but eventually had to give up, tying the score at 1 fall each.Third FallBatista went for a pin right away, hoping Benoit would still be out of it. He had no such luck, as Chris Benoit kicked out. Batista threw Benoit outside of the ring. He slid under the rope. and grabbed a chair. He nailed Benoit with a wicked shot that busted his head open. Batista slammed the chair on Benoit's back, damaging it more. Batista let out an animal like roar, which got the crowd going. Batista rolled Benoit back into the ring, and also went back in, bringing the chair with him. Benoit started to stand up slowly, and Batista waiting behind him, chair raised, ready to smash it over Benoit's head again. When Benoit stood up and turned around, he ducked under the chair and tripped Batista, locking in the Crossface. Batista managed to crawl over to the ropes, breaking the hold. Benoit grabbed the chair, and smashed it over Batista's head. He positioned Batista near the corner for a Diving Headbutt and climbed the rope. Before he jumped, a smile broke over his face, and he climbed down. He palced the chair on top of Batista's head, then climbed back up on the turnbuckle. He leaped, his head connecting with the chair right onto Batista's face. Benoit took himself out doing that. After a couple minutes, the both began to stand up at the same time. The camera zoomed in on Batista's face, showing that his nose was now broken. Batista took a swing at Benoit, who ducked and again locked in the Crossface. This time, Batista tapped out, giving Benoit his second world title.Winner: Chris BenoitPost Match CelebrationAfter the match, benoit celebrated with both titles. Batista offered a handshake, which Benoit accepted. The two of them hugged, and Batista raised Benoit's arm. Batista left, and Armageddon went off the air with Chris Benoit holding up both Championships.

I ing loved Armageddon, except for a minor problem. Punk/RVD going 30 minutes is a bit unrealistic to me, but it's cool. The rest of it was awesome, really great man.

Armageddon was great, i didn't think DX would win since they are on Raw but glad they did and Edge interfering was great way to the end the match. Benoit won!!! Great main event and Benoit as champion should be good for Smackdown, keep it up!

Been reading this piece by piece through the day and it's bloody excellent. Armageddon was awesome. You've made the WWE your own, especially with decisions like Punk/RVD in a 30 minute no contest. Now your showing Vince that someone like CM Punk is ready to be up there. Benoit as a double champion is cool, but I'm interested on how your going to work it. Benoit isn't oozing with charisma, so him taking up a lot of your TV time is a tad concerning... however he is very over, so I guess you've thought it through. Top stuff man, no worries this diary is excellent.
