The Bar takes control when the Good Brothers try for the Magic Killer on Cesaro and Sheamus hits a Broque Kick on Anderson to disrupt it. A few moments of brawling on the outside leaves us with Cesaro and Anderson in the ring and Cesaro shows his incredible strength when he delivers a fourteen revolution swing. A European Uppercut knocks Gallows off the apron and that allows Anderson to fall victim to the Neutralizer for the pinfall.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Winners by Pinfall and still Smackdown Tag Team Champions: The Bar</strong></p><p><strong> Rating: 7.7 </strong></p><p></p></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="WAr89gu.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/WAr89gu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="uiIJMLw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/uiIJMLw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="scYBYdo.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/scYBYdo.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Vb0wBOf.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Vb0wBOf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>When we return to the set Charley is joined by the RAW and Smackdown Live CEOs, Stephanie and Shane McMahon.

All four men get in all their spots, at one point every man hits his finisher on someone else. Late in the match, Kalisto hits a crossbody block from the top to the outside on Murphy. This leaves Rush and Kendrick in the ring and Kendrick hits Sliced Bread but in the process the referee takes a bump. Kendrick is making the cover but nobody is there to count. It’s then that the crowd comes to their feet.</p><p> </p><p> <img alt="LMd9Kvk.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LMd9Kvk.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> The Almighty Bobby Lashley comes running down the aisle and slides in the ring.

And guess what, I stepped out of the shadows and The Man stepped into the light. And right as I was about to break through, I got put into doctor jail. Well, guess what? The Man will NOT be shoved aside again. This Sunday night at the Royal Rumble the world will watch as Becky Lynch permanently steps into the spotlight and heads to Wrestlemania.

AJ climbs to the top but Joe lashes out and crotches him on the top. He then approaches and lifts AJ in the Muscle Buster which he delivers with brutality for the 1, 2, kickout! Joe is shocked but the shock quickly turns to fury. He picks up AJ, turns him around and locks on the Kokina. AJ is struggling but he’s running out of steam. Joe has a manic look on his face as he squeezes and the referee calls for the bell when AJ passes out. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Winner by Stoppage: Samoa Joe</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;"> Rating: 7.6 </span></strong></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="tcgKrgy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tcgKrgy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="FqOmjbD.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FqOmjbD.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="h7gmm9C.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/h7gmm9C.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="yxZj5cj.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/yxZj5cj.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="RW7A0MZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/RW7A0MZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="pYIsAb4.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/pYIsAb4.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="RQid9Yj.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/RQid9Yj.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>We’re shown a graphic that next week we’ll see the New Day versus Sanity in six man action.</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Rating: 7.2 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="tcgKrgy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tcgKrgy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="qgvUCVJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/qgvUCVJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="9KPRxvf.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9KPRxvf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>The announcers hype this Sunday’s Royal Rumble and say it’s now official.

Now, she knows that she can not only hang, Ronda Rousey will destroy whomever she comes across.

If she wanted to, she could fire them both. Angle says that isn’t necessary and begrudgingly announces that Jason Jordan and Chad Gable will not be in the Royal Rumble match. Stephanie asks if that was so hard and smirks, leaving a very frustrated Angle in the ring.</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Rating: 7.1 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="VFZFWuN.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VFZFWuN.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="AqhFMEX.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AqhFMEX.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="h22inhG.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/h22inhG.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>Backstage, Charley Caruso is standing by with Dolph Ziggler.

Lashley punishes Balor the for next several minutes, going for a pinfall following a powerslam but pulling Balor’s head up at the two count.

Gulak makes a frustrated mistake by slinging Kendrick into the corner and charging in, but Kendrick stops him in his tracks with an elbow. With Gulak stunned momentarily, Kendrick grabs him around the neck and quickly runs up the nearby turnbuckles to hit Sliced Bread for the win.</p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#800080;"><strong>Winner by Pinfall: Brian Kendrick</strong></span></p><p><span style="color:#800080;"><strong> Rating: 5.9 </strong></span></p><p></p></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="Y94iBAY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Y94iBAY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="IITVD45.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IITVD45.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>Following the match Kendrick celebrates his big win, knowing he’s got a shot at the WWE Cruiserweight Championship.</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#800080;">Rating: 7.4 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="Y94iBAY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Y94iBAY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="2A02SxE.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/2A02SxE.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Sg8LLD3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Sg8LLD3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="HjugmMM.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/HjugmMM.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="k0hMeMT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/k0hMeMT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="MElQxQf.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/MElQxQf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> <img alt="4j9WoOr.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/4j9WoOr.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="IITVD45.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IITVD45.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>The announcers hype Kendrick’s win a moment ago and the fatal fourway at the Royal Rumble for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship with Buddy Murphy defending against Kalisto, Lio Rush, and Brian Kendrick.</em></p><p> .</p><p> <strong><span style="color:#800080;">Rating: 6.2 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="Y94iBAY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Y94iBAY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="Bn3MDdy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Bn3MDdy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>Maria Kanellis is shown in a pre-taped segment.

He gets an early two count when he smashes Nakamura into the corner and follows it up with a side slam. Rusev is feeling it, but he makes a crucial mistake when he becomes too interested in leading a ‘Rusev Day’ chant allowing Nakamura to recover and when Rusev charges him, Nakamura delivers a devastating kick to his knee, dropping Rusev in his tracks. Nakamura focuses on the knee to the point that Rusev can’t put any weight on it. Lana is very upset but Rusev won’t give up.

Sanity isolates Anderson for several minutes, getting a few two counts but Gallows gets in and begins cleaning house, finally squaring up against Dain as the two powerhouses and getting the early upper hand but eventually he begins to falter as well and Sanity takes over again with Young taking near glee in punishing Gallows. Young is taunting Styles as he works over Gallows but it opens the door for Gallows to flatten Young with a big boot to the face and make the tag to Styles. Styles hits the ground running, putting on a fast paced clinic on Young and hitting him from every direction. Wolfe and Dain enter but are intercepted by the Good Brothers and taken to the outside. As that brawl goes on, Styles goes for the Phenomenal Forearm but Young ducks it. AJ lands on his feet and instantly flips back with a Pele Kick which connects. He then locks in the Calf Crusher and Young taps out. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Winners by Submission: AJ Styles, Karl Anderson, and Luke Gallows</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;"> </span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;"> Rating: 7.3 </span></strong></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="tcgKrgy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tcgKrgy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="Em8yRZT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Em8yRZT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="jEPecb8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/jEPecb8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="ZW9z8qZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ZW9z8qZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="FqOmjbD.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FqOmjbD.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="h7gmm9C.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/h7gmm9C.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="yxZj5cj.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/yxZj5cj.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>As Sanity licks their wounds on the outside, AJ and his good brothers hold the ring, and share a well deserved celebration.</em></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Rating: 7.3 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="tcgKrgy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tcgKrgy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>A vignette for the Royal Rumble is shown, hyping the beginning of the Road to WrestleMania.</em></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="lBiYXeT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/lBiYXeT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Rating: 8.7 </span></strong></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="tcgKrgy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tcgKrgy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> <img alt="18ceS9A.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/18ceS9A.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> Charlotte stands in the ring basking in the glory and adoration of the fans. She says that being a second generation star in this business is harder than anyone can know. Being a Flair is tougher than you would even imagine and being a trailblazer who changed an industry? Few people walking the face of this earth can know what that is like. In just a few weeks, the Royal Rumble will be here and, yet again, Charlotte will walk down to the ring not as a competitor but, as Smackdown Women's Champion waiting to find out who will be humbled at Wrestlemania. Last year a phenom from Japan, an Empress of Tomorrow, bowed down to the Queen. This year will be no different. Because, as far as Carmella has come as a competitor, lets face the fact that she cannot defeat a Flair here tonight. So, bring her out, lets get through this minor irritation and then it is on to the Road to Wrestlemania. In the shadow of New York City, this Flair will continue to blaze her trail to immortality and the rest of the women in this company and NXT? They will all fall to bended knee, tbey will all look up in adoration at the champ and, yes, they will all bow down....to....the....Queen.

Carmella keeps in it and surprises the champ when Charlotte misses a spear and lands head first into the middle turnbuckle. Carmella drags Charlotte into the corner and hits a facebuster onto the turnbuckle and then a bulldog into a snapmare for a two count. She scores with a reverse DDT before wearing down the champ with a knee to the back of the neck but Charlotte won't submit. The Queen is able to get out of the punishing hold and nail some chops before delivering a Spear for a close two count. When Charlotte goes for the Figure Four, Mella reverses it into a Small Package for the 1...2...Charlotte kicks out. Mella goes for and locks in the Code of Silence. Charlotte desperately goes for the ropes and reaches out and makes it to the ropes by her finger tips. Carmella charges with a clothesline but Charlotte ducks, kicks Mella in the stomach and nails the Natural Selection. Cover...1....2....Carmella kicks out. Charlotte is stunned and nails the Spear again before finally locking in the Figure Four. With Carmella in the middle of the ring, The Queen bridges into the Figure Eight and the challenger has no choice but to tap out.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#0000FF;">Winner by Submission and still Smackdown Women’s Champion: Charlotte Flair</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;"> </span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#0000FF;"> Rating: 6.7 </span></strong></p><p></p></div></blockquote></div><p></p>

After dominating Ruby, Bayley is tagged in and the Riott Squad is able to take over, cutting her off from Sasha and really putting a beat down. True to Bayley's never say die attitude, she will not succumb and keeps trying to take in Sasha. At one point in the match, Morgan throws Bayley to the floor and Ruby and Liv double team her on the floor while Sasha tries to break it up and the ref stops the Boss. In the ring again, Liv scores with a reverse roundhouse kick for the 1...2....broken up by Sasha who drops Liv on her head with a T-Bone Suplex. Sasha gets back to her corner as Bayley crawls and just as Liv gets to Bayley, she makes the hot tag. Sasha comes in and floors Ruby immediately with a forearm and then goes to work on Liv. Ruby runs in from behind and blasts Sasha and the Riott Squad beat down Sasha until Bayley runs back into the ring and charges at Ruby with a crossbody block that sends them both tumbling from the ring. Sasha quickly locks in the Banks Statement as Liv tries to get to the ropes. Ruby tries to come in to help but, Bayley has her by the feet as Liv taps. </p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Winners by Submission: The Boss N Hug Connection</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Rating: 7.9</span></strong></p></div><div style="text-align:center;"></div><div></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="VFZFWuN.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VFZFWuN.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="QcJOKSu.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/QcJOKSu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Xg2pt9g.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Xg2pt9g.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> As Bayley celebrates, Sasha gets contemplative and grabs a mic.

Lashley gains the upper hand when he ambushes Strowman getting back into the ring and as Lashley punishes the Monster, Lio Rush on the outside runs his mouth. But Rush is soon silent when Lashley shows intense strength by lifting up Strowman and delivering a Dominator, however when Lashley turns his back to flex for the crowd, an angry Strowman slowly gets to his feet.

It’s on the second of these trips that Balor takes a suicide dive, wiping out Ambrose in the process. Balor seems to be in charge until Ambrose rams him into the apron back-first. Ambrose does it again and again before rolling Balor back into the ring. Ambrose slides back in but not before collecting a chair. The referee warns him to drop the chair but Ambrose has his eyes on Balor. When the referee yanks the chair out of his hands, Ambrose turns to him which allows Balor to roll Ambrose up for a two count. Ambrose and Balor both get to their feet quickly but when Balor approaches, Ambrose blatantly kicks him low causing a disqualification.</p><p> </p><p> <strong><span style="color:#FF0000;">Winner by Disqualification: Finn Balor:</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Rating: 7.6</span></strong></p><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> <img alt="VFZFWuN.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VFZFWuN.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="JxooUbf.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/JxooUbf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="VFEVGyy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VFEVGyy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Wycv9qb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Wycv9qb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <em>Ambrose picks up the chair after the referee drops it to check on Balor and smacks Balor across the back.

    <p></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p> </p><img alt="9RTfvzR.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9RTfvzR.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWE Cruiserweight Championship</strong></p><p><strong> Buddy Murphy © vs Cedric Alexander</strong></p><p> </p><p> -The Juggernaut of 205 Live shows why he’s garnered that nickname as he overpowers Alexander around the ring in the opening moments. He gets several two counts, showing no mercy as he punishes the challenger but when he misses a splash in the corner, Alexander mounts a comeback, staggering Murphy with a series of right hands before nailing a pinpoint dropkick. Alexander is feeding off the crowd and goes to the top but Murphy hits the ropes and crotches him. Murphy climbs up, secures Alexander on his shoulders, and falls back delivering a devastating Samoan Drop. He makes the cover for the 1…2…no, Alexander kicks out! Murphy, by now clearly annoyed and frustrated he picks up Alexander who still hasn’t recovered, and delivers Murphy’s Law for the win.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Universal Title Match/Full General Manager Stipulation</strong></p><p><strong> Braun Strowman vs Baron Corbin</strong></p><p> </p><p> -A still injured Strowman fought off an early barrage by Corbin intent on ending the match quickly but the Monster Among Men fought back. Strowman looked close to victory but his arm gave out, dropping Corbin into the referee. Corbin slid to the outside to collect a chair but Kurt Angle ran down to ringside and entered the ring, delivering an Angle Slam from behind before Corbin could use the chair on Strowman. Angle revived the ref as Strowman collected himself before putting Corbin down for the three count with a big powerslam.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>RAW Women’s Championship</strong></p><p><strong> Ronda Rousey © vs Nia Jax</strong></p><p> </p><p> -The match opens with Ronda, for the first time, showing..concern as she cannot get a handle on how to get Nia off her feet. Nia really dominates alot of this match throwing Ronda around and using her size advantage to beat the champion down. Nia scores with several near falls (including after rolling the champ in following a jumping leg drop from the steps onto Ronda on the floor) but, she can't put Ronda away and becomes frustrated. The tide turns when Nia charges Ronda in a corner but the champ sidesteps and Nia hits her head on the ring post. Ronda begins to battle back with some stiff shots and finally is able to scoop Nia up and nail her version of the Death Valley Driver for a 2 count. When Nia goes for the armbar, Nia swings to deck Ronda but Ronda ducks and spins out. Nia is able to grab the champ and go for the Samoan Drop but, Ronda is able to wiggle around and lock on the arm bar while being on Nia's back. Nia is forced down to a knee and Ronda stands up and finally locks it on fully. Nia is screaming and just as she is about to tap, Tamina runs in and delivers a stiff kick to Ronda's face forcing the ref to ring the bell and award the match to Ronda by DQ.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Dean Ambrose vs Seth Rollins</strong></p><p> </p><p> -The fight begins before the bell even rings as Ambrose ambushes Rollins coming down the ramp. They brawl around ringside for a few minutes before entering the ring. Rollins begins teeing off on Ambrose getting a near fall but Ambrose rolls out of the ring and when Rollins follows, he’s sent head first into post. Ambrose quickly slides him back into the ring and hits Dirty Deeds but at the last second Rollins gets his foot on the ropes. Ambrose looks manic and begins to pick up Rollins to deliver another DDT when Rollins pulls him into a small cradle and gets the win.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Smackdown Live Women’s Championship</strong></p><p><strong> Becky Lynch © vs Charlotte Flair vs Asuka</strong></p><p> </p><p> The match lives up to the hype as all three women use everything that isn’t nailed down to batter each other. Lynch is the first to employ a chair as she wears out Charlotte across the back but Asuka ducks a wild swing and kicks the chair back into Becky’s face. Asuka and Becky brawl around the outside, teasing someone going through the announcer’s table and not paying attention to Charlotte who climbs to the top and moonsaults off, taking out the other two. Becky is the first to her feet and seeing an opportunity she goes to climb a ladder but Asuka follows her up and while they trade right hands at the top of the ladder, Asuka does an amazing jumping swinging backhand to knock Becky off the ladder and she lands in a heap. But before Asuka can reach up to the championship, Charlotte picks up the ladder and tilts it until Asuka falls off to the outside, through a table which had earlier been set up. Charlotte, with a wide grin climbs the ladder and yanks down the belt to become yet again the Smackdown Women’s Champion.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>No Disqualification Match</strong></p><p><strong> Randy Orton vs Rey Mysterio</strong></p><p> </p><p> -Under the guise of no disqualification, this grudge match which has been building for weeks finally explodes and it’s the smaller Mysterio who unleashes a violent aggression that hasn’t ever been seen from him. From all around the ring to every corner inside, Mysterio keeps Orton on his heels as he punches, kicks and flies, landing attacks from every angle. Orton finally recovers with a low blow and deals out his own form of punishment for the next several minutes. Orton’s sadistic smile begins to show as he keeps trying to focus on re-injuring Mysterio’s throat but when he goes to throw Mysterio into the corner with a chair wrapped around his head, Mysterio blocks it with his feet, then mulekicks Orton low. With the Viper stunned, Mysterio takes the chair off, measures Orton and then cracks him in the head once, twice, three times with the chair. The last hit knocks Orton into the ropes, in perfect position as Mysterio bounds off them and connects with the 619. He makes the cover and gets the win and his dignity back. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>WWE Championship</strong></p><p><strong> Daniel Bryan © vs AJ Styles</strong></p><p> </p><p> -Daniel Bryan seems to be one step ahead of AJ in this match from the beginning, forcing the former champion to react out of emotion and frustration instead of a solid game plan. Bryan dodges and slips away, hitting and moving away while taunting but that ends when AJ catches him with a pele kick. AJ goes on the offense, determined to regain his championship but Bryan flips over AJ during an attempted vertical suplex and hits a quick german suplex before synching in the Yes Lock. AJ fights and gets to the ropes and Bryan doesn’t break until almost the five count. AJ slips to the outside, and climbs onto the apron as Bryan closes in but AJ knocks the champion onto his back with a big right hand. Looking to the crowd, AJ sizes Bryan up for the Phenomenal Forearm. Bryan begins to get to his feet when suddenly the three members of Sanity come from under the ring and yank AJ off the apron. The referee calls for the bell as Eric Young calls the shots and orchestrates the beat down of Styles which culminates with a spike piledriver onto the floor. Meanwhile Daniel Bryan collects his championship with a crooked smile as he watches and the show goes off the air.</p>

    5 Brands 1 Universe December 2018 recap RAW The Red Brand rode their Survivor Series success into the final month of the year and as TLC approached, all eyes were on the war between former Shield brothers Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. Their upcoming Intercontinental match should be a great one. In other news Braun Strowman has been out several weeks with an elbow injury but he will return at TLC to take on the would-be full time General Manager Baron Corbin. RAW Women’s Champion Ronda Rousey continues to dedicate herself to being the champion RAW deserves and has pressed herself into title defenses twice this month against Dana Brooke and Tamina but her biggest challenge in the form of Nia Jax looms at TLC. Smackdown Live Smackdown Commissioner Shane McMahon continued to take his brand’s disappointing very hard, turning to near paranoia. Early in December, McMahon accused commentator Corey Graves of acting as a spy for RAW and threw him out of the building. The next week Byron Saxon tried to stand up for his friend and McMahon fired him too. Since then, WWF Hall of Famer Booker T has been working a two man booth with Tom Phillips. Champion Daniel Bryan has continued to show a complete disregard for anyone other than himself, prizing his championship above anything else but at TLC his rematch with AJ Styles promises to be can’t-miss. The triple threat TLC match between Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, and Asuka is a fan’s dream come true and although all three superstars have a real shot at the championship, only one can be the Man, as they say. 205 Live Champion Buddy Murphy has been dominant as the Juggernaut of 205 but he’ll be defending his title at TLC against former champion Cedric Alexander. The brand has gained some more veteran talent with Tyler Breeze joining from RAW as well as the Lucha House Party being made 205 exclusive. General Manager Drake Maverick has also announced a fatal four way for the Royal Rumble but participants haven’t been named yet. NXT Following the chaos of War Games, NXT went into December with three men wanting to challenge Tomasso Ciampa for the NXT title: Aleister Black, Johnny Gargano and The Velveteen Dream. That set the stage for a three way dance on the final NXT of the year where Black was victorious and will go to TakeOver Phoenix to try to reclaim his gold. Though Pete Dunne and Ricochet were allies at War Games the WWE UK Champion has made it clear he wants the North American Title. Adam Cole also has his sights set on recapturing his gold. The first NXT of the year will feature Cole vs Dunne to see who the challenger is. The war between Shayna Baszler and Kairi Sane took a new dimension when each woman found backup at War Games. It appears that these six women are headed to a collision. The Undisputed Era may claim dominance of NXT but, they have a war brewing with some deranged vikings. At TakeOver Phoenix the Undisputed Era will have to defend their Tag Team Titles against Rowe and Hanson as this war rages on. And finally, the King of Bro's has begun his ascension but a bitter foe just won't let go. At TakeOver Phoenix, Matt Riddle will look to vanquish Kassius Ohno for good and then climb the mountain in N-X-T, B-R-O. NXTUK In the fall, Triple H, continued his vision of reshaping the business with the launch of the first ever WWE brand devoted to the United Kingdom, NXT UK. After debuting with much fanfare, the first major event for the brand was announced: NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool. WWE UK Champion, Pete Dunne, has been in a battle for his championship (and potentially his career) with the union of the Coffey Brothers and Wolfgang known as Gallus. At NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool, Dunne will put his title on the line against the leader of Gallus, Joe Coffey. Is this the time when Dunne finally falls? Perhaps the hottest up and coming tag team in NXT UK are Mustache Mountain (Tyler Bate & Trent Seven). Bate is a fan favorite to NXT American audiences after his battles with Dunne and hes a favorite to the UK crowd as well. They have made it to the finals of the NXT UK Tag Team Title tournament and will hope to grab the gold at TakeOver. Eddie Dennis has been on a tear of NXT UK since it launched and no one has seemed to be able to stop the trouble that he caused. But, perhaps the one guy who can is the big bruiser, Mastiff. NXT UK General Manager Johnny Saint has decided to send Mastiff after Dennis and this unusual match up of styles will collide at TakeOver. At the end of November, Rhea Ripley, captured the NXT UK Womens Championship by beating the 2018 Mae Young Winner, Toni Storm. Storm said that she would cash in her shot at a womens title (as part of winning the Classic) in a rematch with Ripley. That rematch is set - at NXT UK TakeOver: Blackpool it will be new NXT UK Womens Champion Rhea Ripley defending against perhaps the best women's wrestler in the world, Toni Storm. Elsewhere All Elite Wrestling opened its doors in December with none other than Y2J Chris Jericho at the helm, good ol’ JR Jim Ross involved behind the scenes and the hefty checkbook of the Khan family who invested an initial $2,500,000 in the project and their new show, Tuesday Night Dynomite will debut on AXS. Normally a new company needs time to find its wings but off the bat the top free agents in the world all put their names on the dotted line. Cody, Kenny Omega, Adam Page, Marty Scrull, and the Young Bucks turned the wrestling world on its head by becoming the bedrocks of AEW. Now we wait to see who else will sign up for this new venture. Ring of Honor continues to grow and put on well received shows and events. What the company brings to the table in skill, some say they are lacking in star power now especially with the defections of some of their top names to All Elite. Who will step up or join up with ROH to replace those who have left? Jeff Jarrett is giving Global Force Wrestling another try but many industry insiders don’t think he’ll be able to make a go of it. With limited funding and a lot of question marks for the roster this may end up being Jarrett’s swan song. New Japan Pro Wrestling continues to expand its influence on North America as their AXS show carries on, now without the voice of a generation behind the mic. Fighting an uphill battle against the entrenched WWE, can New Japan continue to increase its foothold and cut into the American market? Finally, what is there to say about Impact Wrestling that has not already been said in one simple word: terrible? The quality of the product continues to suffer as they hemorrhage talent but they may have a bright spot on the horizon from a place not many would have predicted in years past. The WWE and Impact have formed what is being described as a working relationship as the year comes to an end. It will be interesting to see how 2019 treats the fledgling former proud promotion.
