RKO_HBK Posted March 25, 2008 Author Share Posted March 25, 2008 Sorry this is taking a while, I've been away without the internet for 6 days, and I really got back into properly playing the game, so posting kinda took a back seat. However, this will be up by tomorrow. I really want it to continue, as I have some massive plans for the next two Wrestlemanias :p I already know the main events (injuries etc. permitting), and I'd hate for this to die before I get a chance to do them. On another note, any predictions and comments would be ace, as whilst it's nice to see the views going up after each post (wooo, past 8,000 :D), a comment or two would be nice, just so I know what people think.

RKO_HBK Posted March 26, 2008 Author Share Posted March 26, 2008 [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/fridaynightsmackdown.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/MichaelCole.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JohnLayfield.jpg[/IMG] [B]Cole: [/B]Welcome to Friday Night Smackdown! I’m Michael Cole, and as always John “Bradshaw” Layfield joins me at ringside. [B]JBL: [/B]Tonight’s show should be good Michael- tonight it’s Pick Your Poison! [B]Cole: [/B]Indeed, and let me just explain what that means. By decree of Vince McMahon, the Chairman of the Board, Vengeance opponents CM Punk and Randy Orton get to choose each other’s opponents tonight. Well, we might find out Orton’s opponent now, because here comes CM Punk! [I]CM Punk gets a fantastic response as he makes his way to the ring. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/CMPunk2.jpg[/IMG] [B]Punk: [/B]Tonight, the Straight Edge Superstar has some chance at revenge. Orton and Tyson screwed me out of the title at the Bash, but this month at Vengeance…I will get the title and it will be my Night of Champions. Until then, I won’t get to wrestle Orton one-on-one. However, tonight I get to have an influence on his singles match. Thanks to the big man upstairs, I can choose Randy’s opponent tonight, and he can choose mine. Tonight, it’s Pick Your- [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RandyOrton3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Mike_Tyson.jpg[/IMG] [I]Randy Orton’s music hits and he walks to the ring with Mike Tyson. [/I] [B]Orton: [/B]Look, get to the point. These people know this is Pick Your Poison, they’re not stupid- [B]Tyson: [/B]…On second thoughts, please explain… [B]Punk: [/B]You want to know your opponent? Alright then! He’s the current United States and WWE Tag Team champion! Your opponent tonight…Brian Kendrick! [I]Kendrick comes out to the stage and poses with both titles. [/I] [B]Punk: [/B]Randy, just take off your jacket and shirt but don’t go anywhere. Brian, please come to the ring. Gentlemen, this match is going to happen…right now! Oh and Randy, sorry one more thing. If Kendrick wins, he’s a Triple Champion, because this match is for…the Ultimate Wrestling Championship! [B]Rating: A [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/WWEUltimateWrestling.jpg[/IMG] [I]Kendrick is in wrestling gear and Orton just takes of his jacket and shirt, still wearing his suit-pants, rather than wrestling tights. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RandyOrton3.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/BrianKendrick3.jpg[/IMG] This wasn’t that well received, which was a surprise considering Orton’s popularity and Kendrick’s momentum. It was a decent opening event, and it was nice to have two very popular wrestlers starting the show, making it seem special. The two trading offence for the title for 10 minutes, until Tyson distracted the referee, allowing Orton to pull…the chain from the Bash out of his pocket. Orton wrapped it around Kendrick’s neck and hit an RKO with the chain in place of his arms. The ref turned back and counted the three! Winner at 9:58 and STILL WWE Ultimate Wrestling Champion Randy Orton [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]The cameras cut backstage, where CM Punk is seen watching a monitor, on which Orton and Tyson can be seen celebrating in the ring. He’s shaking his head, looking angry at Orton for using the chain. [/I] [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]Jack Styles, Alistair McGeorge [SIZE="2"](AKA - to readers of Destined to Fail- Eve McQueen:p)[/SIZE] and Bryan Danielson vs. Chavo Guerrero, Gregory Helms and Montel Vontavious Porter [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/AJStyles-1.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/My%20Cuts/MeKYKY.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/BryanDanielson3.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ChavoGuerreroJr.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/GregoryHelms.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/MontelVontaviousPorter.jpg[/IMG] A poorly received match, the only notable thing that can be taken from it is that Danielson put in a stand-out performance for the 6 and a half minutes. He got the win when he hit the Dragon Suplex on MVP. Winners at 6:37 Bryan Danielson, Jack Styles and Alistair McGeorge [B]Rating: D+ [/B] [I]A video plays hyping the history of Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels. [/I] [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]William Regal vs. Paul London [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/WilliamRegal6.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulLondon2.jpg[/IMG] This was a decent midcard effort, albeit slightly disappointing considering the talent in the match. They had a good mat-based contest for 10 and a half minutes, ending when London hit the 450 Splash for a shock win! Winner at 10:38 Paul London [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]Ken Kennedy comes to the ring for his match. He says he knows every superstar in the WWE is here tonight because of Pick Your Poison. He wants to have a match with any Superstar man enough to step up. Out comes…Chris Jericho! [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/KenKennedy.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ChrisJericho2.jpg[/IMG] These two had a short but good match, and the quality seems be improving as we get further up the card. Although lacking a little something to make it special, it was still a good contest. The ending was disappointing to Smackdown, as Jericho beat Kennedy in his own back yard with a Running Enziguri. Winner at 8:34 Chris Jericho [B]Rating: B [/B] [I]For the second time tonight, Randy Orton makes his way to the ring, alongside Mike Tyson. [/I] [B]Orton: [/B]Alright, let’s just cut to the chase. Punk, get the hell out here right now! [I]Almost immediately, CM Punk’s music is heard, and the Straight Edge Superstar makes his way to the ring, shaking hands with almost everybody on his way down. [/I] [B]Punk: [/B]Come on then Randy! Who is it? Who am I going to face? [B]Orton: [/B]You’re in the ring with a champion, so just learn your place! Don’t speak unless spoken too, resp- [B]Punk: [/B]Shut the hell up! Look, just name my opponent so I can kick their ass, just like I’m going to do to you at Vengeance. [B]Orton: [/B]Fine. You won’t like your opponent, let me warn you. If he gets his way, you won’t even come close to being able to walk at Vengeance, let alone compete. Ladies and gentlemen, CM Punk’s opponent in tonight’s main event…a close friend and mentor of mine…tell you what! Punk, I’m not going to name your opponent right now. I will introduce him though…Punk…it’s time to play the game! [I]Triple H’s music hits and the Cerebral Assassin makes his way to the ring in a suit. He gets into the ring and stares CM Punk down. Orton suddenly spins Punk around and hits the RKO. Triple H, Orton and Tyson raise each other’s arms and leave the ring with huge grins on their faces. [/I] [B]Rating: A* [/B] [I]Batista vs. Christian vs. Rey Mysterio vs. John Cena [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/DaveBatista3.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Christian.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ReyMysterio2.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JohnCena.jpg[/IMG] This was a brilliant fatal four way between four of the top stars on Smackdown. These four have been a staple of the Smackdown upper-card this year, and this near-17 minute contest showed why. After more then a quarter of an hour of back-and-forth, exciting action Cena hit the FU on Rey Mysterio to the outside. Batista was hit with an Unprettier that left him out cold. Cena hit the Drop Toe Hold into the STFU, and with the other two out cold and unable to break the hold, Christian tapped out. Winner at 16:41 John Cena [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]Christian and Mysterio are still down, but Batista gets to his feet. Batista and Cena get nose-to-nose, but Cena backs away, and points to Rey and Christian. He can be seen reminding Batista of both their history with Christian, and that Mysterio is just a target for Vengeance. Batista puts his thumbs up, and then down! Cena looks worried, when Batista then hits a Spinebuster…on Mysterio! John jumps onto the luchador as Batista starts to attack Christian. Both are battered, the exclamation point of the attack being an FU and Batista Bomb on Mysterio and Christian respectively. [/I] [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]Pick Your Poison: CM Punk vs. Triple H [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/CMPunk2.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/My%20Cuts/tripleh2.jpg[/IMG] This was a fantastic main event rounding off a quality show. The veteran and the superstar fought for 24 minutes of exciting action. They managed to mix brawling with more technical, mat-based wrestling and it kept the fans on the edge of their seats. At 20 minutes Punk did the un-doable when he kicked out of the Pedigree! A couple of minutes later, Triple H was hit with the Go To Sleep, but got the shoulder up! Punk managed to lock in the Anaconda Vice, but suddenly Randy Orton hit the ring. Punk broke the hold and got in Orton’s face. Just as Orton looked like leaving, he hit the RKO, drawing the DQ! Winner at 23:59 CM Punk [B]Rating: A [/B] FINAL RATING: A This was a major success and the best Smackdown thus far this year. There we go! Any comments would be HUGELY appreciated. A nomination for DOTM wouldn't be too bad either ;) But yeah, any comments would be great, whether good or bad. This has been going just over 10 months now, and I still don't know what I'm doing right/wrong :p , so any criticisms/praises would be fantastic.

In order to boost the tag division on Smackdown, the following change has been made: Rene Dupree and Sylvain Grenier look set to reform La Resistance on Smackdown, to give the brand another heel tag team besides Deuce ‘n’ Domino, who’s on-off feud with London and Kendrick has become stale.

RKO_HBK Posted March 30, 2008 Author Share Posted March 30, 2008 Pre-show: [I]Steve Corino, Dorian Deville and Samoan Seanoa vs. Dustin Rhodes, Shad and Nick Armaho [/I] This was a good pre-show 6-man tag and the fans reacted well enough. It lasted just over 5 and a half minutes, ending when Seanoa was pinned by Armaho after the You’re Nicked! Winners at 5:34 Nick Armaho, Dustin Rhodes and Shad [B]Rating: C- [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/mondaynightraw.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JimRoss.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JerryLawler.jpg[/IMG] [B]JR: [/B]Welcome ladies and the gentlemen to THE premier show on cable television, Monday Night Raw. Tonight will be historic folks! Bret Hart is in the building and will be talking to TWO people tonight. Not only will he be a guest on Chris Jericho’s Highlight Reel, but Vince McMahon has said he will be confronting the Hitman and has something to say! [B]Lawler: [/B]It’s safe to say, JR, that Bret and Vince do NOT have a good relationship, but at least the Highlight Reel should be civilised, right? [B]JR: [/B]Well I’m inclined to think there would be some respect shown. I mean, they’re both incredible athletes and decorated champions- [B]Lawler: [/B]And what about the Canadian connection?! People of hated kinds always stick together! Strength in numbers! [B]JR: [/B]King, I’m not even going to dignify that with a response. Either way folks, Bret Hart is a legend in this business, and I would expect to hear a few more words tonight regarding his highly anticipated, 10-years-in-the-making rematch with Shawn Michaels at Survivor Series this fall!

All 6 men deserve credit, and the non-title stipulation made people think anyone could win. In the end, Carlito got a much-needed win nearly 8 minutes in when he hit the Cool Cutter on Palumbo! Winner at 7:49 Carlito Caribbean Cool [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]We cut backstage where Todd Grisham is standing by with the Nature Boy Ric Flair.

[B]Flair: [/B]Wooooooo! [B]Grisham: [/B]Indeed…so, Ric. Later on tonight you’re in action against Paul Burchill, in a 10-Minute’s of Fame Match- [B]Flair: [/B]Wooooooo, too right I am! Burchill has a chance to stand in my spotlight for 10 minutes, if he can last it! [B]Grisham: [/B]That’s right. If the match reaches the 10-minute mark, it’s declared a draw. How do you think you’ll cope against the younger Burchill? [B]Flair: [/B]I can still hang with the youngsters, let me tell ya! Wooooooo! I’ve beaten Umaga- Wooooooo- Shawn Michaels- Wooooooo- Kenny Dykstra- Wooooooo- Carlito- Wooooooo- and Brock Lesnar! That’s just in singles action, I’m not even started to go through my other victories this year. I’m a 16-Time World Champion, but it is true that he’s young. He’s in fantastic shape and is an imposing figure. It’ll be an honour to be in the ring with him for 10 minutes tonight, if he can hang with the Nature Boy. But still- Paul, do NOT underestimate me. I may be old and not in the peak of my physical condition, but I can still go and I WILL give you a run for your money! Wooooooo!

It’s time for the Highlight Reel! The host Chris Jericho makes his way to the ring to a brilliant response. He gets into the ring and grabs a mic. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ChrisJericho2.jpg[/IMG] [B]Y2J: [/B]The next few minutes of tonight’s show will be a fantastic honour for me, and one of the highlights of my Highlight Reel career. The man I’ll be interviewing is a fellow Canadian, and thus a damn fine athlete. As much as I respect his opponent and Survivor Series, I’m going to remain objective in this interview and try to keep any personal opinions out of this, as I love and respect both men. My guest tonight is a 7-Time World Champion, a 4-Time United States Champion, a 2-Time Intercontinental Champion and a former 2-Time World Tag Champion alongside Jim Neidhart. Ladies and gentlemen, Jerichoholics and children of all ages…please give a Highlight Reel welcome to the damn-near-incomparable…Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart! [I]Hart makes his way to the ring to a mixed reaction, but a massive reaction nonetheless. He gives his pink shades to a kid at ringside, and gets into ring. He shakes hands and embraces Jericho and grabs a mic of a chair. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/BretHart.jpg[/IMG] [B]Bret: [/B]Thanks Chris, it’s a pleasure to be here- really, thanks for having me. [B]Y2J: [/B]No, no! The pleasure is all mine. I mean, compared to you, I’M a junior! But enough of me already. This fall, this November at Survivor Series it’s THE most anticipated rematch and return since the resurrection- besides my own at the beginning of the year, of course! Bret Hart makes his return to Montreal in-ring against Shawn Michaels. How does that feel for you? [B]Bret: [/B]It’s going to feel great to FINALLY get to face Shawn Michaels in a match, 10 years on. But there’s yet more salt STILL being rubbed into the wound! [B]Y2J: [/B]Too true! Vince McMahon will be the Special Guest Referee, and that has to worry you? [B]Bret: [/B]Not really. I mean, it’s also a Sharpshooter Only Match, the first-ever and probably only of all time! The only way to win this contest is to make your opponent submit to the Sharpshooter, the hold that resulted in all this animosity. Well, Vince can try and screw me again, but because I can’t lose by disqualification- if he even LOOKS like screwing me out of my redemption, he’s getting another black eye, 10 years on! [B]Y2J: [/B]Haha, well I don’t want to say that’s something I’d like to see, for fear of losing my job…but that’s something I’d LOVE to see! A quick question though- what sort of match can the fans expect at Survivor Series 07? [B]Bret: [/B]Well it’s too early to say really, we’re a good few months away yet. However, I’d anticipate a blend. Whilst we both want to rip each other to shreds and beat each other within an inch of our lives…we still have that entertainer instinct. We hate each other, but we still want to entertain the fans. They may want that hardcore brawl, but I’d bet the majority are looking forward to a good, classic, technical masterpiece that we’ve made famous. Either way, Shawn’s tapping out. [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]No Chance! Vince McMahon, the Chairman of the Board, makes his way to the ring like only he does, staring right into Bret’s eyes. He gets into the ring and takes the mic off Jericho. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/VinceMcMahon.jpg[/IMG] [B]Vince: [/B]Chris, with all due respect I’m your boss and your in my ring. You’ve got a match to get ready for, and I need to speak to Bret. So, if you would please leave… [I]Jericho does, but not before shaking Bret Hart’s hand. [/I] [B]Vince: [/B]Bret, I’m going to keep this short. It’s been a hell of a long time since we were in a wrestling ring together, but I don’t want this to last…just like I don’t want your return to last. Bret, I’m here to add another stipulation to this match. Whoever submits and thus forces me to ring the bell and end the match…will be fired! If HBK taps out, he’s gone. That’s what you want, right? To put your rival out of a job? Well, if the bell is rung when your in the Sharpshooter and I call the submission…you’re out, yet again. You can go back there for all I care…but you WON’T be allowed back here again, you slimy bastard. [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]10 Minutes of Fame: Ric Flair vs. Paul Burchill [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RicFlair.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulBurchill2.jpg[/IMG] These two have pretty good chemistry, which helped the match. Flair really stepped up his game and put in a great performance. The two battled until the 8th minute, when Burchill was locked in the Figure Four Leg Lock! The fans went insane for the next 2 minutes, where Burchill kept getting to the ropes and being dragged away! These two whipped the fans into a frenzy with just one move for 2 minutes, and the crowd stood up and applauded when the bell rung 10 minutes in. The match is announced as a draw, and Ric Flair released the hold. Ric Flair vs. Paul Burchill ended at 10:00 in a draw [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]Burchill is holding his legs in the corner, and Flair walks over. He extends a hand, and Burchill accepts it and is helped to his feet. Flair walks him to the centre of the ring, before raising Paul’s hand high above his head and applauding. The two shake hands and embrace, showing a massive amount of respect. [/I] [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]Bryan Danielson vs. Charlie Haas [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/BryanDanielson3.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/CharlieHaas20.jpg[/IMG] This was a good match that the fans were really into. The reaction was much better than expected for its near-6 minute duration. In the end, Haas fell victim to the Dragon Suplex.

[B]Orton: [/B]This past Friday night, I outsmarted CM Punk yet again. This time, I didn’t have to hide anything from the referee, because it wasn’t my win-loss record that was going to be impacted. No, no…I could do what I wanted, and I did. Punk, it was Pick Your Poison. You could’ve force-fed me ANYONE on the entire WWE Roster! We’re talking Batista, we’re talking Kane, we’re talking The Undertaker…and you chose Brian Kendrick… [B]Tyson: [/B]Don’t misunderstand Randy here, folks. Brian is a Double Champion, and a hell of a competitor, but- [B]Orton: [/B]But he’s just not in my league, as I proved by beating him in the middle of the ring. Sure, I used the chain and sure, Mike helped but Punk…that’s what you’re dealing with now. You’re dealing with me, the Legend Killer, who will do ANYTHING to get the job done…someone who’ll do ANYTHING to keep this title. I’ll use my influence as a member of the Corporation, I’ll use Mike Tyson, I’ll use a steel chain…anything to get the job done. Punk, you picked Kendrick…I picked The Game, Triple H. The ONLY way you beat him was thanks to me giving you an RKO to lay you out. You should’ve hit me when you had the chance. You should’ve put ME against Triple H. [B]Tyson: [/B]But it’s too late now, chump! Later on tonight, you’re teaming up AGAINST Triple H and Orton! [B]Orton: [/B]That’s right. In the main event, I’m teaming up with two former partners of mine. Tonight, Triple H teams up with Rated RKO against…CM Punk, Shawn Michaels and Val Venis. All fantastic competitors…but ultimately…your legends will be choked…to death. [B]Rating: A* [/B] [I]The Undertaker and Chris Jericho vs. Johnny Nitro and Umaga [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/TheUndertaker2.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ChrisJericho2.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JohnHennigan.jpg[/IMG]&[IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Umaga.jpg[/IMG] This was a good match that kept the fans hot as we move closer to the main event. It lasted 18 minutes, and all four men seemed to be attempting to prove that they have what it takes to win the Battle Royal at Vengeance. Nitro was constantly raising the bar with Moonsaults and Corkscrews, and Umaga was just battering Undertaker and Jericho. Taker showed his experience and strength, at one point giving Umaga the Last Ride! Jericho also showed why he’s a major player in the WWE, although in the end he was pinned by Nitro, who was using the ropes for leverage! Winners at 18:01 Johnny Nitro and Umaga [B]Rating: A [/B] [I]Nitro and Umaga get their arms raised, but are turned around by Y2J and Undertaker, who lay them out with right hands. The Dead Man and Jericho start to lay into their opponents, and after a Tombstone into a Lionsault on Umaga, they lock Nitro in a deadly double team. As Jericho locks in the Walls of Jericho, Undertaker grabs Nitro’s arm and traps him in the Triangle Choke! Nitro taps out, and eventually the holds are released. Undertaker quickly turns and goes to hit Jericho, who ducks out of the ring. Taker motions around his waist, and Y2J nods.

This lasted 24 minutes, and did a great job of keeping Punk and Orton apart. Punk could never seem to tag in when Orton was in, and if he did, Randy tagged out, tapping his head as if to emphasis his “intelligence.” The one moment they did get together- midway through the 19th minute- the ref was distracted by Tyson. Triple H then low blowed Punk, which was followed up by an RKO with the chain by Randy Orton! The pin attempt was broken up by a Money Shot by Venis though, and the match continued. Orton quickly tagged out to Triple H, and Punk made the hot tag to Venis. A few minutes later, it was all over when Triple H hit the Pedigree on Venis for the win. Winners at 23:55 Triple H, Randy Orton and Edge [B]Rating: A* [/B] FINAL RATING: B Paul Burchill was used too much, but the show was still a success.

Elijah Burke vs. Ken Shamrock- Two great amateur fights square off. Burke's a former Xtreme Champion, but Shamrock has more experience in wrestling in general. Which will prove the deciding factor? WWE Ultimate Wrestling Title Match: WWE UWC Randy Orton vs. Paul Burchill- After a fantastic showing against Ric Flair last night on Raw, Paul Heyman has granted Burchill a match tonight on ECW!

Non-title: Rob Van Dam vs. ECW Xtreme Champion Mordecai: Ahead of a title defence at Vengeance, Mordecai will be hoping to build momentum this month heading into that match. The match type and competitors aren't known yet, but RVD will surely be a factor in it, so this a great chance for him. Will he capitalise? Vengeance Preview Match: Kane vs. Brock Lesnar: Despite the competitors and match-type not being known yet, this week's main event is being billed as a preview for Vengeance: Night of Champions.

RKO_HBK Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 Pre-show: [I]Stevie Richards vs. Viscera vs. Tommy Dreamer vs. Santino Marella vs. The Miz vs. Marcus Cor Von [/I] This was a poor dark match that was used purely to get these six in the ring. It lasted just over 7 minutes and was more of a brawl than anything technical. Dreamer hit the Spicollii Driver, incredibly, on Viscera to pick up the win. Winner at 7:20 Tommy Dreamer [B]Rating: D+ [/B] [I]Abyss vs. Sabu [/I] This was slightly better, and about 2 minutes shorter. The two performed well, and Sabu got the win 5 minutes in with the Triple Jump Moonsault. Winner at 4:54 Sabu [B]Rating: C- [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ecwlogo.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JoeyStyles.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Tazz.jpg[/IMG] [B]Styles: [/B]This is E C ****ing W, I’m Joey Styles alongside ECW Original Tazz! [B]Tazz: [/B]This show’s stacked from top to bottom Joey, and I’m really hyped for it. [B]Styles: [/B]We’ve got a great main event set for tonight between Kane and Brock Lesnar, but now it’s time for the opening contest. The veteran Perry Saturn is going up against the monster Snitsky. [I]Perry Saturn vs. Gene Snitsky [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PerrySaturn.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/GeneSnitsky.jpg[/IMG] This wasn’t great at all, but the fans seemed pleased to see Saturn in action. The match wasn’t a total squash, thankfully, and nearly 5 minutes had past before Snitsky hit the Big Boot for the win. Winner at 4:45 Gene Snitsky [B]Rating: D+ [/B] [I]Elijah Burke vs. Ken Shamrock [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ElijahBurke.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/KenShamrock2.jpg[/IMG] Despite not clicking, these two had an acceptable match, taking that into consideration. They fought for almost 7 minutes, and after some decent action it came to an end when Burke rolled up Shamrock with a handful of tights. Winner at 6:56 Elijah Burke [B]Rating: C [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulHeyman.jpg[/IMG] [I]Paul Heyman is in his office. There’s a knock on the door. [/I] [B]Heyman: [/B]Hello? [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/VinceMcMahon.jpg[/IMG] [B]Vince: [/B]Mr. Heyman…we need to talk. You’ve done a…an alright job of running things, but as they say…nothing lasts forever. This isn’t the original ECW, so don’t pretend it is. I’m not going to be watching over your shoulder, and you won’t be hearing anything like this from me again, at least for a hell of a long time. This is just a warning, Paul. Watch out, because it’s begun. [B]Rating: B- [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/WWEUltimateWrestling.jpg[/IMG] [I]WWE Ultimate Wrestling Title Match: WWE Ultimate Wrestling Champion Randy Orton vs. Paul Burchill [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RandyOrton3.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulBurchill2.jpg[/IMG] In a shock move, Burchill is put in a title match (albeit in the midcard). They had a decent 5 minute match, although the predictability of the match hurt it slightly. Mike Tyson slid a chair into the ring 3 and a half minutes in. As the ref was getting it out of the ring, he tossed Orton the chain again, and went round to distract the referee. Orton then hit the RKO, using the chain yet again, and got the cover. The champ came out of this looking strong, without harming Burchill too much. Winner at 4:43 and STILL WWE Ultimate Wrestling Champion Randy Orton [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]Orton is standing tall in the ring, his arm raised by Mike Tyson. Randy has his title in one hand, and the chain in the other. Suddenly, CM Punk hits the ring and hits a Double Clothesline from behind, knocking both men face-first onto the mat. He hits the Go to Sleep on Tyson and dropkicks him out of the ring. Punk turns his attention to the champion, locking in the Anaconda Vice! Orton starts to tap out, when the lights go a dark red. Mordecai gets into the ring and takes out Punk with a steel chair. Orton holds out his hand to get help up, but Mordecai doesn’t help. He stares down the ramp, points at CM Punk and raises his title above his head. [/I] [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]RVD’s music hits and the Whole Damn Show makes his way to the ring to face Mordecai! [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Mordecai.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RobVanDam.jpg[/IMG] This was a decent match between two good wrestlers. Mordecai’s quickly become a force to be reckoned with in WWE, and RVD is just…well, Rob Van Dam. After 6 minutes of back-and-forth action, Van Dam hit the Five Star Frog Splash for the win. Winner at 6:10 Rob Van Dam [B]Rating: B- [/B] [B]Styles: [/B]It’s nearly time for our main event! [B]Tazz: [/B]Yeah, and what a match it’s gonna be! It’s gonna be off the chain! [B]Styles: [/B]I’m inclined to agree. Kane is facing Brock Lesnar in a preview of sorts for the ECW Xtreme Title match at Vengeance: Night of Champions. [B]Tazz: [/B]I can’t wait till that match, especially now that we know the competitors! [B]Styles: [/B]Well we know Tazz, but I’m not sure that the fans do! Let’s just run down the list so they know. It’s gonna be a 6-Man match, scheduled for one fall. [B]Tazz: [/B]Which means the champion Mordecai doesn’t have to be involved in the decision to lose his title. We could get a new champion, and it could be either Kane, Elijah Burke, Ken Shamrock… [B]Styles: [/B]Or either Brock Lesnar or Rob Van Dam. That’ should be a classic, as should this. A preview of sorts for Vengeance: Kane vs. Brock Lesnar! [B]Rating: B- [/B] [I]Kane vs. Brock Lesnar [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Kane.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/BrockLesnar3.jpg[/IMG] These two have good chemistry in the ring, and it showed in this 6-minute contest. Despite its length, this was a brilliant match (guess size doesn’t matter :P), and a great end to the show. Kane got the win with the Chokeslam. Winner at 6:33 Kane [B]Rating: A [/B] FINAL RATING: B- Sorry for the delay, just been playing the game so much (getting to my favourite storyline I've thought of, but it's been taking a hell of a lot of planning, so that's taken up most of my time). The preview for Smackdown should be up soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RKO_HBK Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 Sorry for the delay, I've had loads of school work to do (first A Level exam is on the 1st June), so posting took a back seat behind revision, writing up the diary in word and playing the game (plus an increasing social life :rolleyes: ). I'm gonna go and grab something to eat, then post the next show so you've got roughly another hour to post any predictions. EDIT: Sorry, but the update probably won't be up til later tonight. I've just found a load of homework left to do for tomorrow, so that's gotta take priority at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So on Raw this past Monday, Vince McMahon makes another announcement regarding the Sharpshooter Only Match this fall between myself and Shawn Michaels. When HBK taps out to the Sharpshooter, 10 years on in Montreal, he will be fired. I know, I know what you’re thinking- Vince said that whoever loses will be fired, he didn’t specify Shawn. But hey…it’s a foregone conclusion. Showstopper…there’s no way your beating me in Montreal at Survivor Series. 10 years is a long time to thing, and I’ve come to the conclusion that I AM willing to do anything it takes to beat you…anything it takes to end your career here…anything it takes to turn the tables and make YOU submit. I will do anything it takes to change history and make sure that someone actually taps out in Montreal. [B]Rating: B+ [/B] [I]Paul Burchill vs. Finlay [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulBurchill2.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Finlay2.jpg[/IMG] These two surprisingly didn’t click at all, and it showed in this short match. The two did try, but the chemistry just wasn’t there. 6 and a half minutes in it was all over, with Finlay getting the win with a Celtic Cross. Winner at 6:36 Finlay [B]Rating: D+ [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JohnLayfield.jpg[/IMG] [B]JBL: [/B]Well Michael, I’m sorry but I’m going to have to leave you on your own for a bit. I hope you can handle calling the show without me, but…actually… I’d appreciate it if you were silent for this next bit. It’s time for the John Layfield Show, and show me some respect. [I]Bradshaw gets into the ring and sits behind his desk, mic in hand. [/I] [B]JBL: [/B]Welcome to the highest rated segment in Sports Entertainment today…the John Layfield show. My guest tonight is a sell-out and a loser. He left us way back when for Total Nonstop Wrestling. However, the grass is always greener and he returned better than ever, beating the freaking Hulkster! But alas, he turned his back on his friend and you people cheered him! You show no loyalty and no traits of fine human beings, just like this man. Ladies a- sorry, my mistake- whores and bastards…Christian. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Christian.jpg[/IMG] [I]Christian makes his way to the ring do a decent reception. He doesn’t take a seat, instead just grabbing the mic and standing. [/I] [B]JBL: [/B]…Son, sit down right now. [B]Christian: [/B]I’m fine standing, Bradshaw. [B]JBL: [/B]Listen son! You’re on MY show now, and on the John Layfield show you DO NOT call me Bradshaw. I am John or Mr. Layfield. Take your pick, and grab a seat…right now. [B]Christian: [/B]Like I said, I’m fine standing. [B]JBL: [/B]Fine standing…what? [B]Christian: [/B]JBL, I don’t want to get any closer to you and your scummy, elitist ideals. If you have some questions for me just ask them! [B]JBL (standing up): [/B]Learn your place! Let me say it right now: you ain’t got a chance in HELL of winning the Vengeance Battle Royal and getting a title shot. [B]Christian: [/B]That’s funny Jay-Jay, but remember the last person you threatened? Now, I don’t want to waste my time in a match with you, so it isn’t going to happen. Not now, not ever, but let me remind you that you told CM Punk he wouldn’t get anywhere. Where is he now? Oh, that’s right- com- [B]JBL: [/B]Coming off of a pay-per-view loss to Randy Orton at the Bash. He’s not gonna win this month, and you’re not going to get a chance to fight for the title. I’m willing to bet that you won’t even last longer than Batista… [B]Christian: [/B]Let’s think about that for a moment, JBL. Hey, wait! Is it true that your initials stand for your preference in women? Just Butch Lesbians? Or is that your wife's- [B]JBL: [/B]Dammit, SHUT THE HELL UP! Christian, learn your place and don’t speak unless your spoken to. Tonight, it’s my pleasure to announce that you will be in a tag team match, involving Batista…John Cena…and Rey Mysterio. But whoa- this isn’t a rematch from last month, when you teamed with Rey. You see, I went to Teddy Long earlier today and asked to make a match, just one match, to try to spike ratings. I got it. Mysterio and you, whilst you sorta get on, it’s limited to one tag match a month ago. Also, Rey has pride and won’t stop at anything until he wins. Cena hates you, and rightfully so. Batista…well, we’ve mentioned him already. So here’s how it’s going down. Christian, you’re teaming up with John Cena against Batista and Rey Mysterio! I think you may just get the win…but only thanks to Cena. Tell you what boy…$100 dollars says that you don’t even hit the Unprettier. [I]Christian suddenly pulls Bradshaw over his desk and into the centre of the ring. He goes to hit the Unprettier, but JBL slips out and runs behind the announce table, grabbing a chair to defend himself. Christian doesn’t follow, instead tapping his head and motioning around his waist.

All four men got in some offence in this open match. At 9 minutes, Guerrero hit the Gory Bomb on London. Before he could get the pin, Styles hit the Pele Kick! As he got to his feet, Kendrick came in out of nowhere and hit Sliced Bread No. 2 and picked up the win! Kendrick becomes a Triple Champion! Winner at 9:36 and NEW WWE Cruiserweight Champion Brian Kendrick! [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]Kendrick immediately helps Paul London up and hands him his tag title, raising his arm along with his own 3 belts. London pulls away and stares Kendrick down. He starts motioning towards the belt and shouting about the “team” and the tag titles. He starts poking Brian in the chest, laying into him verbally, until Kendrick’s had enough and just levels a slap right across his face. He shouts something about how London should be proud, and then leaves the ring looking as angry as London does as his stands fuming in the ring.

The fans weren’t really involved, and didn’t give Booker T that much of a reaction when he hit the Scissors Kick for the win 11 minutes in. Winner at 10:55 Booker T [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]CM Punk’s music plays over the PA. The Number 1 Contender makes his way to the ring to a fantastic reception.

If Bobby Lashley wasn’t in the main event tonight you’d have nowhere to run…and nowhere to hide. The thing is, you can only run for so long and the chase will come to an end at Vengeance: Night of Champions! At Vengeance, I’m gonna take you down…take you out…and take your title! That’s right Randy- at Vengeance your party WILL be over and the Straight Edge Era of the WWE will begin. The only way you can get things done recently is with a chain and Mike Tyson. I find it funny that you had to have another champion- Mordecai- help you on Tuesday, because you know you can’t fight me alone. Your ally on Tuesday was just proving a point to his challengers, much like your trying to do to me by taking people out with the chain. Well Randy…your time is nearly up. Tonight I win the Triple Threat Main Event…then in a couple of weeks time I beat you at Vengeance and become the new Ultimate Wrestling Champion!

Mysterio and Batista actually showed some teamwork for the majority of the match, until the 17th minute when Mysterio was pulled over the rope and hit with a Spinebuster. Cena then tagged himself in and went for the FU on Christian, who slipped out and hit the Unprettier! He turned into a Batista Bomb, delivered onto Cena’s body! Batista made the cover on Cena and got the win.

The match itself wasn’t brilliant, and was a bit worse than the tag match just before. Still, it was definitely watch-able and decent despite Orton being off his game. At 11 minutes, Lashley accidentally took out the ref with a Spear when Punk sidestepped it. Tyson then blasted Punk with a huge right-hand using the chain, and then tossed it to Orton who used it to hit the RKO on Bobby Lashley for the win. Winner at 13:31 Randy Orton [B]Rating: B- [/B] [I]Ken Kennedy runs to the ring and grabs a mic.

How about we teach this…punk…what he’ll get whether he wins or loses at Vengeance? [I]Kennedy, Orton and Tyson then start to beat down Punk with a chair and the chain. Punk gets hit with another right by Tyson as Orton holds a chair in front of his face. Kennedy hit the Green Bay Plunge, and Orton started getting ready to go for the RKO.

An absence of feedback since the PPV is part of the reason for the gaps between shows- without comments, there's not a whole lot of motivation to do this. That's not to say this will be stopping- far from it; the views go up every time I post in here, so I know at least a few people read this still, but just some feedback on what I'm doing good or bad would be really, really appreciated.

Or 'why'? lol I'll presume the latter...and well basically at the moment there's nothing big planned for those 5, and whilst the majority of the other team aren't being prepared for anything big either, one of them will feature a lot in the diary as it progresses. Plus, Alistair McGeorge is me, and I fancied a win :p. I'm not appearing often on the shows, just now and again on the pre-shows and very, very rarely on-screen (I won't be winning on TV too much, it was just a one-off really).

Management clearly have a lot of faith in Brian, as he’s now a Triple Champion, a feat most never achieve. He’s now holding the WWE Tag Team Titles with Paul London, the US Title and is the new Cruiserweight Champion.

RKO_HBK Posted April 24, 2008 Author Share Posted April 24, 2008 Pre-show: [I]Alistair McGeorge vs. Steve Corino [/I] These two didn’t have a classic by any stretch of the imagination, but for a dark match it was just about acceptable. They had an even bout that came to an abrupt end 6 minutes in. McGeorge springboarded and went for a Clothesline, but was met with a stiff Old School Lariat in mid-air. Winner at 5:58 Steve Corino [B]Rating: D+ [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/mondaynightraw.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JimRoss.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/JerryLawler.jpg[/IMG] [B]JR: [/B]Welcome one and all to Monday Night Raw. I’m Jim Ross alongside Jerry Lawler my broadcast partner. We’re kicking things off right away with a match between Chuck Palumbo and Carlito Caribbean Cool. [B]Lawler: [/B]Indeed, and also tonight we have the continuation of the Haas-Benjamin Best of 7 Series… [B]JR: [/B]Shelton’s currently leading 3-2- will it end tonight? Also, Paul Burchill gets another huge opportunity as he goes one-on-one with The Undertaker. [B]Lawler: [/B]Speaking of opportunities, The Hardys get a World Tag Title match tonight against the champions Cade and Murdoch. [B]JR: [/B]But without further ado, let’s get our opening contest underway… [I]Carlito Caribbean Cool vs. Chuck Palumbo [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Carlito.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ChuckPalumbo.jpg[/IMG] This was an even opening match up that got the fans in a good mood early on. It was a decent contest with both men looking like winning. After 8 and a half minutes of fairly solid action, Palumbo put Carlito away with a Super Kick. Winner at 8:37 Chuck Palumbo [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]We cut backstage where Val Venis, Shawn Michaels, Ric Flair and CM Punk are standing by.

Tonight…myself, Val, Shawn, Punk and Chris Jericho will destroy the team of Umaga, Kenny Dykstra, Triple H, Johnny Nitro and Randy Orton. The Nature Boy teams up with 3 legends of the business…and one hell of a prospect for the future, CM Punk! [B]Punk: [/B]Thanks Ric. Tonight I come just a little bit closer to my title match and my first title reign in the WWE! I can get a win over the champion and go on to Vengeance to win the title. But even if I don’t, it doesn’t really matter, because regardless of the results of the matches we have building up to Vengeance, I’m still walking out champion. And gentlemen, it will be an honour to face any of you for the title. [B]Venis: [/B]Punk, it’ll be an honour to face you for the Ultimate Wrestling Championship. All of the men on our side have a fantastic shot at winning the Battle Royal, and Shawn, Taker, Ric…it will be an honour for me to compete with you all at Vengeance: Night of Champions. [B]HBK: [/B]Guys…I think we need to focus less on the pay-per-view and more on tonight… because we go 5-on-5 against some tough bastards, including my former partner. Tonight, it could be either the GTS…the Tombstone…the Walls of Jericho…the Figure Four Leg Lock…or some Sweet Chin Music, but someone’s falling victim to one of them and we’re getting the win. I don’t care whether we pin the prima dona, the Samoan Savage, the former cheerleader, my betrayer or the champion…but we WILL walk out the winners.

They wrestled a good mat-based match for 7 and a half minutes until Haas made it even with a Haastile Takeover. Winner at 7:29 Charlie Haas (now 3-3) [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]You think you know me…the Rated R Superstar makes his way to the ring arrogantly, in street clothes. He demands a mic and waits for the music to stop. [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/AdamCopeland4.jpg[/IMG] [B]Edge: [/B]One person, above all others, has pissed me off this year thus far. That person is Val Venis…look, don’t even start cheering at the mention of his name. You people know damn well that this time half a year ago you didn’t give a crap about that man! It’s not fair that someone as immoral and unclean as him gets chanted and moved up the card after doing NOTHING to deserve it. He shouldn’t be in the Battle Royal, because you’re not even in my league! We’ve met on four separate occasions this year Val, and you’ve only won one- you’ve lost the last three we’ve had! History dictates that you don’t have a chance in hell of beating the Rated R Superstar and the other elite of the business next Sunday at Vengeance. But even worse than that, what have you done on pay-per-view to deserve it? I’ve won at Backlash…last month at the Great American Bash…hell, I beat The freaking Rock at Wrestlemania 23! I’m a 12-time Tag Team Champion, a former US Champion, a 5-time Intercontinental Champion…dammit, I’m a former 2-time World Champion. You, Val…sure, you’ve had some matches on pay-per-view, but three were against the same man- you had time to scout him! You won last month against a pretty-boy who can’t hold a candle to me. But ok, let’s be fair- what titles has the great Val Venis held in the WWE? Hmmm…well folks, he’s a former World Tag Team Champion…once, oh dear! He’s held the Intercontinental Title! Wow! Oh wait, that was only twice…I’m sorry. You can’t hold a CANDLE to me either Val, your just a fail- oh…wow…what’s this? Another title reign…interesting…oh! Hahahahaha! Never mind Val, it’s just the European Title. You’ve not held a singles title in 7 years, since you won your second IC Championship…a title I’ve held 5 times. Looks like there’s a pattern developing…I’ll always be better…than you.

Surprisingly (and almost sadly) it’s a short, albeit average, match with nothing important to note, except Armaho getting the shock win with the Armalock!

It went for a good 10 minutes, and was fairly solid. The match came to an end when the champs hit the Sweet and Sour, after which Cade covered Jeff for the win. Winners at 10:33 and STILL WWE World Tag Team Champions Cade and Murdoch! [B]Rating: C- [/B] [I]Bret “The Hitman” Hart makes his way to the ring to a good response from the crowd.

You’re always one to duck out of a commitment and hide from responsibility, aren’t you Shawn? I took a shot at you on Smackdown and told the truth about how I’m gonna make you tap at Survivor Series later this year, and what did you do Shawn? Nothing at all, despite having 3 days to respond and that’s something I don’t get. How can people respect you- get out here and MAKE them respect you. [B]JR: [/B]Dammit, Bret Hart knows Shawn’s busy preparing for his match tonight and he knows that HBK isn’t watching a monitor right now! [B]Hart: [/B]Shawn…I don’t think you have the fire any more. I’m sure you don’t have the guts to say or do anything to me, tonight or ever. Just like 10 years ago, it looks like I’m the bigger man. I’m still the best there is, was and ever will be, Shawn. Oh, one last thing…to all the fans; kids, I’m sure that over the last 10 years, Shawn’s gone soft. He’s no longer a man…you want proof? I’m willing to bet he’s not even got the balls to crotch-chop me. Shawn, if you’re not down with that…I’ve got 2 words for ya…Survivor Series!

Hate to break it to ya, but you just told me to give you a can that would make you shut the hell up. Well, I’ve not got a can of anything, I was just being polite and offering, but I what I do have is this. It’s addressed to me, but it says “do not open until you are in the presence of a homosexual former male cheerleader.” So I guess we at least have a definite homosexual former cheerleader, but 2 out of 3 isn’t bad, hey junior? Right… “Dear Mr. Jericho. We understand you will be hosting your incredibly innovative, often imitated but never duplicated Highlight Reel talk show this week on Monday Night Raw is Jericho. It has also come to our attention that your guest will be a Ms. K Dykstra. Guess times aren’t as good as they used to be and decent guests are hard to come by, huh? We would appreciate you to pass this message on to Dykstra.” Are you ready Kenny? Ok… “Kenny Dykstra…would you…PLEASE…SHUT THE HELL UP!” [B]Dykstra: [/B]Oh very funny Chris! Look, let’s just stop the cheap- [B]Y2J: [/B]“Signed…everybody.” [B]Dykstra: [/B]Why don’t you shut up?! [B]Y2J: [/B]“P.S….” [B]Dykstra: [/B]What now? [B]Y2J: [/B]“…you’re an ass-clown.” Now, I don’t know about you or about you people in attendance or watching at home…but I agree with damn near everything that “everyone” said about Kenny in that letter. But anyway, I believe you had something to say? [B]Dykstra: [/B]Yes I did! You have NO claim to calling this- MY- Intercontinental Title your own. I hold it- it’s mine! [B]Y2J: [/B]You won it by getting kicked in the face! And I think I do have a claim…I’ve held that title a whooping 7 times, and that’s a record. I plan on breaking my own record at Vengeance, along with your back…knees…shins-feet-elbows-face-nose-ears-jaw-EVERYTHING in your entire body and placing that title back round the sexy waist it belongs on!

[B]Rating: B [/B] [I]The Undertaker vs. Paul Burchill [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/TheUndertaker2.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/PaulBurchill2.jpg[/IMG] This wasn’t fantastic, but that was to be expected because Burchill isn’t really a huge name yet. He is being given great chances, and he was in the ring with a true legend who looked good in the match, showing his experience. In the end, Taker got the slightly predictable win nearly 12 minutes into the match with a Tombstone. Winner at 11:45 The Undertaker [B]Rating: C [/B] [I]Undertaker is on one knee in the centre of the ring, when Umaga’s music hits! The Undertaker stands up to look down the ramp where..... [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ArmandoAlejandroEstrada.jpg[/IMG] Armando Alejandro Estrada is walking down, surprisingly alone. Taker walks up to the rope to meet Estrada, but Umaga’s manager just stops at the end of the ramp and starts to laugh. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Umaga.jpg[/IMG] The camera pulls back, and Umaga has got in the ring behind the Dead Man. He charges, but Undertaker senses him and turns, immediately gripping the Samoan Bulldozer round the throat! He manages to lift him up! Chokeslam…no! Umaga hits the Samoan Spike and Taker drops him, falling to the mat in pain. Umaga then begins the onslaught. He drags Undertaker to the ropes and starts to choke him out, until he eventually passes out. Estrada then gets into the ring and wraps some rope around The Undertaker, connecting his hands to his head. The hands are then handcuffed to the ropes! Umaga slips out of the ring and hits another Samoan Spike, before lifting up the apron and pulling out a steel chair and a coil of barbed wire. He wraps it around the chair and drives it into the skull of The Undertaker over and over again. Armando starts to direct traffic, and signals for Umaga to untie The Undertaker. The Bulldozer does so, and drags the lifeless body to the announce table. He strips away all the monitors and cables, and drapes The Undertaker on it. Umaga then climbs onto the side of the ring and delivers a massive splash, breaking the announce table and The Undertaker with it! Officials come and convince Umaga and Estrada to back away. They are about to help the Dead Man, when suddenly he sits up! The lights go out, and when they come back on a few moments later, The Undertaker is nowhere to be seen! Armando Alejandro Estrada looks terrified, but Umaga looks unaffected as he gets into the ring for the Main Event!

It seems to be a trend in ECW now that the pre-show matches are better than some of the televised ones. Anyway, whilst poor this was an understandable match to make, showcasing the comparatively strong tag division on ECW. At 4 minutes, Colton was pinned by a Dreamer Driver, bringing us to 3 teams remaining. Another 4 minutes later, Jimmy Rave got hit with the Stevie Kick, leading to his and Martin’s elimination. The last 2 minutes were an all-out brawl, finally coming to an end when Daniels hit the Last Rites. During the match, Abyss took an awkward fall, hurting his ankle after falling out of the ring. He was limping heavily at the end of the match. Winners at 10:14 The Fallen Angels [B]Rating: D [/B] [I]Vengeance Preview Match: Elijah Burke vs. Kane [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/ElijahBurke.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Kane.jpg[/IMG] These two showed some surprisingly great chemistry in this 7-minute contest. It was a good, very solid match showing some promise for Burke, with the right opponent. At 6 and a half minutes, Kane went for the Chokeslam, but Elijah slipped out and rolled the Big Red Machine up. He got his feet on the ropes for leverage, but the ref didn’t see it and made the count! Winner at 6:42 Elijah Burke [B]Rating: B [/B] [I]As soon as the bell rings, Burke starts to run, but Kane grabs him just before he can leave the ring. He turns him round and hits several quick thrusts and punches, until Burke hits a low blow and goes on the offence. He takes a few kicks to the skull, and Kane is backed into the corner, struggling to get to his feet. Burke grabs a chair from ringside and charges, just as Kane gets to his feet in the corner, hitting the Elijah Experience with a chair! Kane is left crumpled on the mat, and Burke stands tall over one of his opponents at Vengeance. [B]Rating: C+ [/B] [I]Vengeance Preview Match: Rob Van Dam vs. Mordecai [/I] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RobVanDam.jpg[/IMG] vs. [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Mordecai.jpg[/IMG] Although short, this was still a decent match between two legitimate, credible ECW main eventers. RVD got the win in under 5 minutes when he hit the Five Star Frog Splash. Winner at 4:38 Rob Van Dam [B]Rating: B- [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/RandyOrton3.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/Mike_Tyson.jpg[/IMG] [I]The WWE Ultimate Wrestling Champion Randy Orton and his manager Mike Tyson make their way to the ring to a chorus of boos and jeers. Tyson fakes a shot at a kid on the front row, drawing himself some more heat. They get in the ring and both Orton pose. Randy keeps his arms up as Tyson gets a mic. The Baddest Man on the Planet hands it to his client, who waits for the crowd to quiet down. [/I] [B]Orton: [/B]Shhhh…savour this moment. This is one of the last ECW shows that CM Punk will be mentioned on. He started here, on this brand, but left for bigger and better things on Smackdown. He left you all and sold you out…yet you still cheer for him? It just shows how weak-minded and easily manipulated you are. If management puts together a flashy video package, if the clowns behind the announce table hype someone up as a valid title challenger, you gullible bastards lap it up and accept it as truth. Let me make this very clear…CM Punk will not be walking out of Vengeance next Sunday with this title as his own. He’ll try, because I can admit it- that kid has heart. But the thing is, he just can’t beat me. So, like I said, you should be savouring this last mention of your Straight Edge Superstar on ECW, because once he loses, once he’s out of the title hunt, he’s back to being a Smackdown-exclusive wrestler. I can’t WAIT to get CM Punk off my back once and for all. What will it take Punk? I’ve beaten you time and time again…I beat you three weeks ago at the Great American Bash to retain this title…you what do you have to prove? We all know you can’t get the job done, so give up trying. Whether I use my raw talent, this chain, that steel chair or this man Mike Tyson…I will be walking out of Vengeance…STILL- [B]Rating: A [/B] [IMG]http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x151/RKO_HBK123/CMPunk2.jpg[/IMG] [I]Suddenly, the crowd erupts as CM Punk leaps the barrier and charges into the ring. Tyson makes a wild swing at the challenger’s head, but he ducks and keeps running, knocking down the champ with a Clothesline. He turns and ducks again, this time hoisting Mike Tyson onto his shoulders. Punk hits the GTS, and turns his attention to Orton, who’s just getting to his feet. Orton goes for the RKO out of nowhere, but CM Punk spins him around and drops him again, locking in the Anaconda Vice! Orton starts to tap out, and Punk eventually breaks the hold and waves to the crowd before leaving the ring.

Even with Lesnar off his game, the two worked a decent match going on just over 8 minutes, coming to an end when Shamrock hit the Belly to Belly for the win. Winner at 8:19 Ken Shamrock [B]Rating: B- [/B] FINAL RATING: B- So there we go. Any comments? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
