A mere 24 hours removed from perhaps the greatest and most controversial PPV in modern history, WWE presents Monday Night Raw.

CM Punk managed to reclaim the WWE title on his last night with the company despite the best efforts of John Cena, Vince McMahon, Johnny Ace and Alberto Del Rio. It is no secret that Punks contract with the WWE has now expired, so for the first time ever, The WWE champion does not work for The WWE! Also, Vince vowed to fire Cena if he lost the title. Will Vince actually fire Cena and lose not one but two of his top stars in one night? Also, where does this leave number one contender Del Rio? Make sure to tune into what will no doubt be a historic episode of Raw live tonight.

I love this picture. It makes me chuckle a lot. There are a lot of people claiming to be the greatest wrestler in the world, but the only person that it actually applies to is CM Punk. What a genius!

Raw begins with Vince already in the ring, microphone in hand.

Last night...

The Hot Chicago crowd boo Vince as soon as he opens his mouth.

SHADDAP!

Of course they boo him even more. He waits patiently for them to simmer down.

Last night was, quite frankly, the worst night I've ever had to suffer through here in the WWE. I hope you people are happy!

There is a loud cheer as Vince sneers at the crowd.

I hope you all savour this moment, go ahead, cheer all you want! Laugh it up, Chicago! Last night, your hometown hero CM Punk did the unthinkable, and walked out on The WWE with the WWE title around his waist! And when it comes down to evaluating exactly what happened last night...I can't really say I blame Punk for what he did. I can't blame Johnny Ace, I can't blame Alberto Del Rio, and I certainly can't blame myself.

No, when it comes down to it, there really is only one person who has to shoulder the responsibility on this one. One man who has made me take my eye off the ball for too long now. One man who has managed to make me lose sight of the big picture and cater to his flights of fancy. A man who claims that he is a man of the people...yet you booed him out of the building last night.

John Cena, I promised I would fire you if you didn't get the job done, and that's exactly what I'm going to do! It gives me great pleasure to announce that, John Cena... YOU'RE F-

But before Vince can finish his sentence, he is interrupted by Zack Ryder! Zack enters the ring and Vince looks him up and down.

VINCE- I'm sorry, do I know you? You better have a damn good reason for coming out here to my ring kid.

ZACK- Vince, sir, I've waited and waited for my opportunity here on Raw, I've done everything I can think of to get my foot in the door, but for whatever reason, my opportunity hasn't come. All the time I spent making internet videos and improving my ringcraft, trying to get your attention, and it didn't make any difference. You know, I don't agree with everything he has done, but I know how CM Punk felt, Sir. I know how it feels to be ignored and underutilised. In fact, I could have done exactly the same as him and walked out on this company a couple months ago...

VINCE- Yeah, the only difference being, nobody would have noticed if you had gone!

ZACK- You're probably right! The thing is, I'm not a quitter. I'll do whatever it takes to get my shot at the big time, even interrupt the owner of the company. And do you know who instilled that attitude into me? Do you know who gave me the courage to carry on and try over and over? Do you know who appears in my videos, tweets my name to keep it relevant, and who even bought my t-shirt? John Cena!

So you see, sir, I can't allow you to just fire him because he wanted to do things the right way...

VINCE- Wait a minute, you can't allow me? I think you're forgetting who exactly you're talking to! Do you realise I can fire you too, just like that?

ZACK- Woo Woo Woo, I know it bro.

VINCE- Bro? I'm nobodies bro, you dig, Turkey? I've had just about enough of this! So, not only is John Cena fired, Zack Ryder, YOU'RE F-

But Zack cuts him off and hits Vince with the Rough Ryder! He can't believe what he has just done, and with his head in his hands, Ryder flees the scene as medical staff tend to Vince

http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh203/UnleashedFX/Michael_Cole.jpg

What the hell did Zack Ryder just do! Does he have a death wish?

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Jerry_Lawler.jpg

It seems to me like Vince was going to fire him anyway! At least Ryder has finally made an impact here on Raw!

COLE- The EMT's are moving Mr McMahon very slowly, but it looks like there will be no lasting damage, at least not to Vince. The same cannot be said for the careers of John Cena or Zack Ryder!

The Camera fades to black as we take a short commercial break. When we return, Johnny Ace is applying an ice pack to the neck of Vince McMahon.

http://th811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/blackjeeep/th_McMahon5.jpghttp://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g57/Overcast3r/EWR/KyKy/J%20Images/Johnny_Ace.jpg

VINCE- Careful with that, dammit! It's cold!

ACE- That's kinda the idea...

VINCE- Shaddap! Or do you want to be the next one out the door? I can't believe I've been so blind. John Cena has got away with too much around here. It's about time people remembered exactly who the boss is. John Cena's firing is just the start!

ACE- So, you want me to start the paperwork to fire Ryder?

VINCE-No...I've got a better idea. Why don't we give Zack what he's always wanted, a main event on Raw! But not just any match, why don't we make it a No Disqualification match. If, or when, he loses...then he's fired!

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Alberto_Del_Rio.jpg

Del Rio knocks on the door, and gingerly enters.

ALBERTO- You wished to see me, Mr McMahon?

VINCE- Ah yes, Alberrrrrto Del Rrrrrrio! Last night was an absolute travesty from start to finish, but I want you to know, I don't hold you accountable.

ALBERTO- You don't? I mean, of course not! CM Punk took advantage of me like the coward he is!

VINCE- The damage had already been done. That's why Mr Cena is no longer employed by The WWE. Now, with regards to your status as number one contender... the contract you fought so valiantly for still stands. The problem is that we no longer have a championship, nevermind a champion!

ALBERTO- Mr McMahon, we are both men who know what we want, and we know how to get results. So this is what I propose. Allow me to track down that ungrateful Punk and take back what is rightfully mine...er, I mean, yours! The only thing I request is that you avoid making any decisions regarding the championshup until I return it to you.

VINCE- See, now this is the kind of attitude we need around here! Mr Del Rio, you go out there and, I don't care how you do it, you bring that championship back to me. I promise you, your actions will be greatly rewarded. But before you go, I have one more piece of business for you to take care of. Tonight, I want you to end the so called career of Zack Ryder.

Alberto smiles, nods understanding and leaves the office as Vince grins maniacally

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/BarbieBlank13.jpghttp://i834.photobucket.com/albums/zz264/fzr1000ru/versus.jpghttp://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/MaryseOulette05.jpg

The wrestling portion of the show kicks off with Kelly Kelly defending her Divas championship against Maryse. Kelly Kelly won a short, sloppy match with The K2 to retain.

WINNER- KELLY KELLY

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/MikeMizanin34.jpg

The Miz comes out to the ring, more than a little banged up after his losing effort in The MITB match.

MIZ- So...John Cena is finally gone from The WWE. I thought this day would never come! The day when Vince McMahon and the entire WWE universe realised what a charlatan John Cena really, really is. It feels like a new dawn around here. No longer will we be treated like second class citizens, wallowing in the tall shadows cast by our former champion. It's finally a level playing field! Vince McMahon, sir, I know you're backstage recovering, and I just want you to know that, as a former WWE champion, and as the last man not named John Cena or CM Punk to hold the title, I think it only right that I should be declared as your new WWE Champion.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/RonKillings02.jpg

The Miz' words draw the ire of R Truth, who quickly makes his way to the ring.

Now hold on just a minute! I hear what you're saying, Miz, you're a former champ, man. Emphasis on the former! Now, I may never have held the WWE Championship in my hands, but that has nothing to do with my talent, and everything to do with all the bias of all the Little Jimmys holding me back!

MIZ- Really? Really, Truth?

TRUTH- Yeah really! I was this close to beating Cena at Capitol Punishment, and I did it on my own! I didn't need Jimmy Johnson to help me out!

MIZ- Hey, I would have beat Cena at WrestleMania with or without The Rock's help!

TRUTH- Then how come you got beat at Over The Limit?

MIZ- That was all Alex Riley's fault!

TRUTH- Really? Really Miz?

Before the two can carry on their bickering, they are interrupted by the Anonymous Raw General Manager. Michael Cole heads to the podium and begins to read.

http://i257.photobucket.com/albums/hh203/UnleashedFX/Michael_Cole.jpg

...And I quote... The entire WWE Universe has been turned on it's head by last nights actions. As such, I are not going to rush into any decisions regarding the WWE Championship. Miz, Truth, you both have legitimate claims to the title, as have many of the other extraordinary athletes here on Raw. With that in mind, tonight you will put your differences to one side and team up to face two other superstars. The results of this match could go a long way to shaping the future championship scene. That match will take place...now.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/RonKillings02.jpghttp://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/MikeMizanin34.jpghttp://i834.photobucket.com/albums/zz264/fzr1000ru/versus.jpghttp://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/MattSydal04.jpghttp://i293.photobucket.com/albums/mm59/Smisum1_2008_Photos/Kofi_Kingston.jpg

In a fast paced match, mostly controlled by Bourne and Kingston, The Miz would finally take advantage and score a quick rope assisted roll up for the victory.

WINNERS- THE MIZ AND THE TRUTH

Meanwhile, Alberto Del Rio is being interviewed in the back by Todd Grisham

http://i219.photobucket.com/albums/cc179/aolynthon/2008%20Roster%20Kyky/Todd_Grisham.jpg

Alberto, tonight in the Raw main event, you go one on one with Long Island Iced Z...

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Alberto_Del_Rio.jpg

Who?

TODD- The Woo Woo Kid?

ALBERTO- Come again?

TODD- The Ultimate Broski?

ALBERTO- You need to go back to journalism school Grisham! Tonight, in fact, I face Zack Ryder. I don't even know who those other guys are!

TODD- Ok... well, if Zack Ryder loses he will be fired from the WWE. Do you think you have what it takes to get the job done?

ALBERTO- Do I have what it takes? Are you serious? In the past year I have won The Royal Rumble. I have headlined WrestleMania. Just last night I became Señor dinero en el Banco! In that same time, what has Zack Ryder accomplished?

TODD- He made out with Princess Leia...

ALBERTO- I don't care about his extracurricular activities! In the ring, where it matters, he has accomplished nothing, whereas my list is ever growing! So tonight I put him out of his misery and end his pathetic career, then I find that ingrate CM Punk and take back the WWE Championship, then I fulfil my destiny and claim the championship for my own! I hear The Miz shouting about being the last champion, and Mr Truth claiming he could have beaten John Cena...maybe they are forgetting that I was the number one contender before CM Punk was reinstated. I am Señor dinero en el Banco. And when I return the WWE Championship back to where it rightfully belongs, I will be the next WWE Champion!

After a short break, Raw returns with Santino Marella in the ring ready for action. Before his opponent can be announced, Marella takes a microphone from ringside.

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll4/apeevolution/KyKy/Santino_Marella.jpg

WWE Unimiverse, please allow me to take but a moment of your time. A lot of crazy razzmatazz has been goings on over the last few weeks. Important issues have been raised. But no issue is more important, closer to my heart, than the one I want to talk about right now. CM Panks...he was a man of many words, a lot of which I didn't understand, but there is at least one thing we have in common. Ladies and Gentlemans, tonight I want to talk to you about...Icecream Bars!

I remember many a time in my childhood back in Italy, Mamma Marella would take us to the gellato store and I would always come out licking Andre the French Giant! If they ran out, maybe I would get a hillybilly Jimmy. But now, in Italy, the bambino's say to me, "Santino, I want to be licking your icecream bar!" But sadly for the bambino's there is no such thing!

Starting right here, right now, I Santino Marella vow that I will go on hunger strike until The WWE make the dream of Italian children, and children all over the worlds, a reality!

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll4/apeevolution/KyKy/Santino_Marella.jpghttp://i834.photobucket.com/albums/zz264/fzr1000ru/versus.jpghttp://i852.photobucket.com/albums/ab81/Jess-x-/MichaelMcGillicutty-4.jpg

Santino started the match very well, in fact, he had Michael set up nicely for The Cobra...but then he started to get a little woozy. Clearly an effect of his self imposed hunger strike. This allowed McGillicutty to pick up the victory after a vicious McGillicutter

WINNER- Michael McGillicutty

Backstage, Zack Ryder is preparing for his main event and the most important match of his career. There is a knock at his door.

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee97/Gsquared_2007/Zack_Ryder.jpg

Come on in man! Ain't no need for you to knock!

http://i998.photobucket.com/albums/af109/Fridolin123/Worker/Scott_Stanford.jpg

Well now you're main eventing Raw, I didn't think you'd have time for little people like me!

ZACK- Always got time for my major Broski's, Stanford, you know that!

SCOTT- I know you have an incredibly important match coming up, but I just wanted you to know that if it all goes wrong tonight and you get fired, that the last few months working on your videos has been the personal highlight of my career.

ZACK- Well duh! Scott, if there was an internet tag team championship, you and me, we'd be the self proclaimed champions, no doubt!

SCOTT- You really mean it!

ZACK- Woo Woo Woo, you know it!

SCOTT- That really means a lot...bro. I'll let you get ready. Good luck out there... take care.

Scott Stanford leaves the room as Zack slowly removes his glasses and solemnly says...

ZACK-...and Spike your hair...spike. your. hair.

http://i232.photobucket.com/albums/ee97/Gsquared_2007/Zack_Ryder.jpghttp://i834.photobucket.com/albums/zz264/fzr1000ru/versus.jpghttp://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Alberto_Del_Rio.jpg

It's time for the main event of the evening. If Zack Ryder loses this one, then his moment in the spotlight will be extremely short lived. He starts tentatively, but perhaps senses that Alberto is taking him somewhat lightly. With this realisation, Zack begins to grow into the match, more than holding his own with a stunned and even impressed Del Rio.

As the match wears on, Alberto begins to gather his composure and regains the upperhand somewhat. Desperate not to get left behind in the match, Zack attempts a swinging neckbreaker...but Alberto counters into an arm bar! He cinches it in as Zack screams in agony but refuses to tap out.

http://th811.photobucket.com/albums/zz40/blackjeeep/th_McMahon5.jpghttp://i53.photobucket.com/albums/g57/Overcast3r/EWR/KyKy/J%20Images/Johnny_Ace.jpg

Oh no, here comes Vince and Johnny! Surely they can't be about to do what I think they are? Johnny Ace runs towards the time keeper to demand he rings the bell and ends the match...

http://i455.photobucket.com/albums/qq272/damien12_07/Rey_Mysterio.jpg

But here comes Mysterio through the crowd! He grabs hold of the ring bell and escapes with it through the crowd! Alberto releases the hold and walks towards the ropes to find out what the hell is going on. He is confronted by a dumbfounded Johnny Ace who doesn't quite know what to tell him. All the confusion allows Ryder to make it to his feet...ROUGH RYDER CONNECTS! Ryder covers for the pin...1....2....3!

Mysterio Rings the bell from the middle of the arena steps! Ryder has done it! He keeps his WWE Contract! Vince and Johnny Ace enter the ring as Ryder escapes up the entrance ramp ecstatically.

WINNER- ZACK RYDER

Vince grabs a microphone and directs his attention to Mysterio.

VINCE- Rey! What the hell do you think you are doing, dammit! How dare you interfere!

REY- Vince, are you familiar with the term, WWJD?

VINCE- What the hell has that got to do with...

REY- Tonight, I sat watching you berate and belittle a fellow superstar, and I asked myself, WWJD...What Would John Do? Zack Ryder wasn't the only one who was helped and encouraged by the man you fired tonight. In fact, each and every superstar in the locker-room has a story to tell about John Cena, and I guess tonight, my inner John Cena came out! So you see Vince, you can fire Cena, you can try and fire Zack Ryder...hell, you'll probably try and fire me after tonight, but you will never remove the passion, the desire and the hunger to succeed against the odds that John Cena brought to this company each and every night!

So go ahead, fire me, fire the entire Raw roster if it makes you feel better, but know this Vince. As long as you act like an *******, there will always be a John Cena, a Steve Austin, a Mankind, Wade Barrett, Rey Mysterio or Zack Ryder ready and waiting to kick your ass!

With that, Mysterio drops the mic and the ring bell and leaves through the crowd. Vince is left with Del Rio and Johnny Ace in the ring, he contemplates his actions before slowly leaving the ring. Alone.

(OOC: I haven't really followed NXT since the first series, not even sure if we still get it here in the UK, so I've decided to change up the format somewhat...)

http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd474/nyarty/wwe_nxt.jpg

WWE NXT is back with a brand new season of hard hitting action! This season is all about great up and coming talent with an international flavour. Make sure to tune into this weeks NXT for an exclusive preview show. Six brand new rookies will be introduced along with their pro's only on NXT tonight!

BoomKing · July 21, 2011

http://i1221.photobucket.com/albums/dd474/nyarty/wwe_nxt.jpg

http://i256.photobucket.com/albums/hh197/SvenAndIngmar/Matt_Striker.jpg

Hello WWE Universe, and welcome to the NXT preview show. This season sees the biggest shake-up in the format since NXT's formation. This season we attempt to answer one of the great unanswered questions in wrestling history. Here in the WWE, we've had great champions from all over the world. True Americans, submission specialist canadians, High flying mexicans, strong style Japanese, British style technicians and European juggernauts to name a few. But which style is better? There's only one way to find out....FIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

The Intro video plays before we are joined once again by Matt Striker in the studio.

Six new rookies are ready and waiting for their opportunity to join the WWE roster. Up until this series, their future has always been decided entirely by you, the WWE Universe. This series however, there's a little twist. You will still be able to vote for your favourite rookie and Pro combination, but their win/loss record will now play a bigger role. Each week, starting from week three, the three rookies with the worst record will be up for nominations.

As I already stated, this season is all about international competition. We have scoured the globe for six of the hottest talents in the world, and boy have we delivered. So without further ado, let's meet our first pro who will introduce his new rookie.

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/JayReso09.jpg

Current World Heavyweight Champion Christian appears in the studio talks directly to the camera. He has the championship around his waist.

Good evening to all my peeps across the world, but especially to you guys back home in the greatest wrestling nation the world has ever known, Canada. When I heard that NXT was going international, I knew I had to be here to prove once and for all that Canada is by far the superior nation. You only have to look at the list of great canadian champions, Names like Bret Hart, Lance Storm, Dino Bravo, my good friend Edge, and of course, yours truly!

As the Heavyweight Champion, I feel it is my responsibility to usher in the new era of Canadian grapplers, to be the role model they deserve. So it is with great canadian pride that I welcome my rookie, a man with several years experience on the independent circuit, Pete Windsor!

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Petey_Williams.jpg

Pete and Christian embrace as we move onto our next pro

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/StephenFarrelly15.jpg

I wish I could come out here and say it was an honour to tutor the next great Irish talent...but The WWE thought it would be a good idea to partner me with a bloody Englishman! Get your skinny arse out here!

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Wrestlers/KyKy/M%20Images/Mark_Haskins2.jpg

My name is Ash Hoskins...

SHEAMUS- They don't care about your name fella! Shut up, and do as I say, and maybe, MAYBE, I won't kick your head off!

They scowl as our next pro is revealed

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/DosCarasJr08.jpg

How can you question the skill and passion of the mexican wrestlers when you see what I have achieved in such a short space of time? Me and my rookie will win NXT and prove that Mexico is a country where winners are born. It is....our destiny!

http://i1182.photobucket.com/albums/x457/crackerssaucer13/Indys/NWA%20Hollywood/Zokre.jpg

Now, my rookie, Zokre, his English is not so good, so allow me to speak on his behalf. Zokre may not have my money, my class, my style or my talent....but he does have one thing that no other rookie here today has. ME!

Del Rio shakes Zokre's hand as we move to our next pro

http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e203/fatallylost/TEW%20Cuts/CW%20Workers/BigShow4.jpg

When I was asked to represent the USA on NXT, I jumped at the chance. Given the pedigree of my rookie, I'm sure he is going to teach me just as much as I teach him over the next few weeks! He is here to prove not only that America breeds the greatest professional wrestlers in the world, but also that he is much more than his fathers son.

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Richie_Steamboat.jpg

I am Richie Steamboat. Son of the legendary dragon. Prepare to die.

With those harsh words, our next pro is revealed.

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Yoshi_Tatsu.jpg

Yoshi Tatsu will show that Japan number one! My rookie number one rookie! My rookie, OKADA!

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Kazuchika_Okada.jpg

The two Japanese wrestlers show a sign of respect to each other, then stare intently into the monitor. Our sixth and final Pro is then revealed.

http://i284.photobucket.com/albums/ll4/apeevolution/KyKy/Santino_Marella.jpg

I, Santino Marella, have agreed to appear on this season of NXT! Not to prove that Europe is the greatest continent, or Italy is the greatest country, no. This much is obvious! Me and my inexperienced rookie shall win NXT under my instructions, and we will be one step closer to our ultimate goal...to bring back WWE Icecream Bars!

http://i172.photobucket.com/albums/w15/TheWho87EWR/Z_Sort/Claudio_Castagnoli.jpg

I am Claus Castagnoli! The Monster from The Alps! And I want Ice Cream Bars!

SANTINO- You're a quick learner Claus!

With that, Matt Striker re-enters the scene

STRIKER- So there you have it, our pro's and their rookies ready to do battle on International NXT. But wait...there is one more twist! This season, not only will the win/loss record of Rookies count towards the vote, but the records of their pro's will also count!

The Pro's and Rookies stare at each other in disbelief before looking at their competitors, enraged.

STRIKER- Err...that's all we have time for tonight, be sure to tune into next week's NXT where the action really begins! Goodnight!

Jaded · July 22, 2011

Awesome stuff! I loved RAW, and NXT looks very interesting.

(OOC: Superstars will just be a bare bones report.)

http://i897.photobucket.com/albums/ac179/dereklwx2010/wwe-superstars.png

Superstars starts with William Regal in the ring. He says that he has been contacted by both Teddy Long and The Anonymous Raw General Manager to act as an intermediate GM here on Superstars. He goes on to say that each GM has chosen four superstars from their respective brand to appear on Superstars. These are four men that have perhaps got lost in the shuffle on their brands, and need time to refocus and work on their ring craft. All eight superstars will perform tonight and over the coming weeks. If a superstar is able to win five consecutive matches, they will make it back to their respective brand with a shot at either the US or IC title.

Jimmy and Jey Uso beat Primo and JTG

Curt Hawkins says he is going to clean sweep here on Superstars and prove that the Raw GM is an idiot for letting him leave.

Hawkins beats Trent Baretta

Tyler Reks beats Brodus Clay

Superstars Standings

Curt Hawkins- 1 win

Jimmy Uso- 1 win

Jey Uso -1 win

Tyler Reks- 1 win

Trent Baretta- 0 wins

Brodus Clay- 0 wins

JTG- 0 wins

Primo- 0 wins

I really love the Superstars idea it gives meaning to what is usually a meaningless show.

http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll88/Brianpage2169/WWE/SMACKDOWN.jpg

Smackdown has a new world heavyweight champion. Christian won back the World Heavyweight championship in questionable style at Money In The Bank, sending Randy Orton over the edge in the process. GM Teddy Long is demanding answers, and will speak to both men tonight.

Also in the house will be Daniel Bryan, the new holder of The Money In The Bank contract. What will Bryan have to say about his historic victory?

Confirmed matches

Natalya vs Alicia Fox

Wade Barrett and Sheamus vs Kane and Ezekiel Jackson

Cody Rhodes vs Daniel Bryan

I really love the Superstars idea it gives meaning to what is usually a meaningless show.

Thanks BHK! Smackdown might take a couple days to write up inbetween work and whatnot, so feel free to predict and speculate!

keefmoon · July 22, 2011

I've not really been on here for... ever, but seeing a new BoomKing diary could be just the ticket to get me interested again. Already loving the revolution storyline that seems to be going on on Raw, one that totally makes sense in context and is a new idea. Love Santino going on hunger strike. Good to see Zach Ryder getting used in a meaningful capacity. And quoting TV Burp and the Princess Bride on one episode of NXT? How can I not love that?

The idea for Superstars is a great way to keep it meaningful as well. I'm guessing at some point we could have things like 2 superstars in a match with 4 wins each, so it becomes a Number One Contenders match, which will make it all the more interesting.

Great start.

Natalya vs Alicia Fox

She actually has ability from what I've seen

Wade Barrett and Sheamus vs Kane and Ezekiel Jackson

I've admittedly not seen a great deal of Jackson in the ring but I'm guessing Wade and Sheamus are heading for bigger things

Cody Rhodes vs Daniel Bryan

He could probably do with a win to cement that MITB win, although Cody's character is one of the few things I've seen in WWE that's grabbed my interest (before the Punk storyline, of course).

Should be good.

BoomKing · July 22, 2011

I've not really been on here for... ever, but seeing a new BoomKing diary could be just the ticket to get me interested again. Already loving the revolution storyline that seems to be going on on Raw, one that totally makes sense in context and is a new idea. Love Santino going on hunger strike. Good to see Zach Ryder getting used in a meaningful capacity. And quoting TV Burp and the Princess Bride on one episode of NXT? How can I not love that?

The idea for Superstars is a great way to keep it meaningful as well. I'm guessing at some point we could have things like 2 superstars in a match with 4 wins each, so it becomes a Number One Contenders match, which will make it all the more interesting.

Great start.

Keef! How amazing to hear from you! Hope you have been keeping well sir. I've not really been on here much either, not watched an awful lot of wrestling lately much either. This Punk thing got me though, got me thinking, got me writing. I hope beyond hope you stick around, if only to hear some of your pearls of wisdom.

So I hope I live up to your billing. I must say it is always amazing to have you on my side! Your opinion means a hell of a lot. Hope I can stick around long enough to have a decent length diary for once! Think I owe you lot at least a six month run!

Why does Claudio want Ice Cream bars?

Well, first of all, it's Claus! Secondly, we all want Icecream bars, do we not?!

New World Champion Christian is being battered from pillar to post by an irate Randy Orton. The brawl continues despite the best efforts of various wrestlers and officials to break them up. Eventually, the action spills out to the arena floor and the two men are finally seperated. Smackdown GM Teddy Long runs towards them with a microphone. LONG- Hey! Hey! Randy! Back the hell down right now or I swear you will never get a shot at the Heavyweight title again. You think this is cool? You think this is acceptable behaviour? This kinda thing might fly back over on Raw, but not on my show! <div style="text-align:center;">Christian smirks and cheers his approval so Teddy turns his attention to him</div> LONG- Don't you start with me, Christian! I've had it up to here with your games! You deserve a whole lot more than an ass kicking playa. <div style="text-align:center;">Randy tries to break free and attack Christian again, but he is soon restrained.</div> LONG- Get him off my stage dammit! This ain't going down like this tonight. You two need to cool your jets and quickly, because tonight I'm holding an official enquiry into what went down at TLC. And if I see or hear of any more fighting before I conduct my enquiry, then you're both suspended! <div style="text-align:center;">Christian and Orton are escorted to the back as Smackdown takes its first commercial break. As the show returns, we are ready for our first match of the evening. <div style="text-align:center;"> -----------------------------------------------------------------</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="31763" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Natalya vs Alicia Fox</div> In a short yet brutal match, Natalya defeated Alicia Fox in an almost nonchalant manner. The outcome of the match seemed never in doubt, and victory came via a discus lariat from Natalya. Winner: Natalya </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;">Post match, Natalya grabbed a microphone</div> NATALYA- It's about time somebody started cleaning up this so called Diva's division...guess it might as well be me. <div style="text-align:center;"> After a short yet dramatic declaration, Natalya put Alicia in the sharpshooter and refused to relinquish the hold despite the protestations of the referee. Eventually, once Alicia had passed out, Natalya left the ring, laughing to herself all the way up the ramp. ---------------------------------------------------------------- After another short break, Smackdown returns with Dashing Cody Rhodes in the ring, microphone in hand.</div> CODY- You know, back at this years draft, when I found out that I was headed to Smackdown I did so knowing I was coming to "The Wrestling Show." The brand where the most technically gifted wrestlers in the industry have made their home. Look back at all the great cruiserweights who lit up thursday nights, the much lauded tag team divisions of the past, and who could forget the infamous Smackdown Six? Ahhhh, The Smackdown Six. The men who legitimised Smackdown as the superior wrestling brand all those years ago. And now, five days removed from Money In The Bank, I stand in front of you without a shiny blue briefcase because I was bested by not six men, but seven superstars. Kane, Sin Cara, Wade Barrett, Sheamus, Heath Slater, Justin Gabriel...and of course Daniel Bryan. Individually, I am far greater in the ring than any of those names! But I didn't get to face them individually, oh no. I was forced to face them all together, in a match that favours the fortunate. And since I stand before you with a broken face, I've come to accept that lady luck is not my greatest Ally. Daniel Bryan may have walked out of Money In The Bank holding high the Smackdown briefcase, but he didn't get it by being the best wrestler. If that was the case, then I would have been the one unhooking it from atop the ladder! Bryan, you won because you were fortunate. You can't hold a candle to The Smackdown Six, and you certainly can't hold a candle to me, The Smackdown One. <div style="text-align:center;">Cody throws down the microphone and anticipates the arrival of his opponent. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="31763" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div style="text-align:center;"><div>Daniel Bryan vs Cody Rhodes</div></div><div> It was a long battle for supermacy as the two men fought to outdo each other in this stellar match. Cody had a lot to prove, and was determined to back up his previous claims. Bryan was keen to show Cody that his victory at MITB was more than fortunate. Back and forth they went, each man adapting their style to counter the offence of their opponent. As the end drew close, it seemed as if Bryan had bested all that Cody had to offer, and inched ever closer to an impressive victory. Cody, perhaps through sheer desperation, or perhaps in a premeditated attack, removed his protective mask and smashed Bryan in the face behind the back of the oblivious referee. From there, the ending was clear. One crossrhodes later, and Cody would have one of his most impressive and controversial victories to date <div style="text-align:center;">WINNER: CODY RHODES</div></div></blockquote> Post match, Rhodes escaped up the ramp, happy to be the winner, whatever the means. As Michael Cole celebrates loudly on commentary, we head backstage, where Sheamus and Wade Barrett are getting prepared for their match. -------------------------------------------------------------</div> SHEAMUS- I can't believe they lumbered me with a tiny Englishman on NXT, and now they lumber me with another on Smackdown! What happened to the fighting Irish huh? The spirit of the Celtic warriors? BARRETT- Young Ash Hoskins is a hell of a talent, you're lucky to have a rookie like him believe me. SHEAMUS- It wasn't so long ago you were a NXT rookie yourself, fella, so don't talk to me like your some seasoned professional now! BARRETT- All I'm saying is... SHEAMUS- Look, if you think he's such a great talent, you can babysit him! I've got bigger and better things to worry about than whether some snot nosed Englander is going to get a contract or not! <div style="text-align:center;">With that, Sheamus storms out of the locker room. Barrett follows after him and rolls his eyes. ------------------------------------------------------- <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="31763" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;">Wade Barrett and Sheamus vs Kane and Ezekiel Jackson</div> Our third and final match of the evening is a hard hitting affair. Current IC Champion Jackson makes the most of the disquiet in the British camp and uses his immense power game to take control of the match. It seems as though Jackson has done enough to win this match practically on his own...until Kane turns on him! Kane enters the ring and chokeslams his tag partner to oblivion, leaving the ref no choice but to call this match a DQ. <div style="text-align:center;">WINNERS: JACKSON AND KANE VIA DQ</div></div></blockquote> Post match, Barrett and Sheamus try to help Kane but he tells them to leave him to it. Kane hits another chokeslam on Jackson, then pucks up a microphone.</div> KANE- Did I forget to mention? At SummerSlam, it's me versus you for the Intercontinental title, and I'll do whatever it takes to win! <div style="text-align:center;">Kane raises his hands to light up the ring posts...but here comes Mark Henry! Henry hits Kane from behind with a huge clothes line and sets him up for the worlds strongest slam. With Kane and Jackson down in the ring, Mark Henry picks up the discarded microphone. </div> HENRY- Close, but no cigar. You see, at SummerSlam, it's Kane versus Jackson versus me! And I'll do whatever it takes to win! <div style="text-align:center;">Henry stands over his two fallen opponents with his arms raised high. Meanwhile, backstage, Randy Orton is walking with purpose towards the ring, but he is stopped by Teddy Long.</div> TEDDY- Now hold on just a minute Playa, where do you think you're going? RANDY- To the ring? TEDDY- After what you did earlier? You must think I was born yesterday! Come with me. <div style="text-align:center;"> Teddy leads Randy towards his office, where a monitor is set up next to a video camera, and two burly guards stand arms folded. </div> TEDDY- The technical guys have very kindly set this up for me because I refuse to allow you and Christian to share the same space until we've got all of this straight! So you get yourself comfortable in here, Randy, I'll be speaking to you soon. <div style="text-align:center;"> We take our final commercial break of the evening and return with Teddy Long in the ring.</div> TEDDY- Randy Orton, I hope you can hear me backstage? <div style="text-align:center;">The Titantron flickers into life, and we see Orton flanked by the two guards in Teddy's office.</div> ORTON- Yeah I hear you Teddy. TEDDY- Very well. Let's get this thing started then. Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome the new World Heavyweight Champion, Christian. Christian's music hits and the new world champ makes his way to the ring, soaking in the boo's and jeers of the crowd. He slowly makes his way to the ring, playing up the beating he recieved earlier, and the injuries sustained at MITB. Finally, he gets in the ring and takes the microphone from Teddy Long. CHRISTIAN- Before we get this thing started, I think Randy Orton owes somebody an apology! ORTON- For once, Christian, I agree with you. I do owe some apologies. First of all, I apologise to Teddy Long for my "anger management issues" over the last week. Secondly, I apologise to the Spanish announce team for the damaged I caused to their beautiful table at Money in the Bank. Finally, I owe a huge, heartfelt apology to the entire WWE Universe for ever allowing a creepy little scumbag like you to ever hold the most prestigious title in the WWE! CHRISTIAN- Cute, very cute Orton, but I think you're forgetting somebody? ORTON- You? You want me to apologise to you, right? Get this into your thick skull. I will NEVER apologise for anything I have done to you after the total disrespect you showed to me! CHRISTIAN- You wanna talk to me about disrespect.... LONG- Hold on a minute guys, we could spend all night arguing about who owes who an apology, but I didn't set up this enquiry to get apologies, I set it up to get answers! So why don't you start telling me what I want to hear. How could two world class atheletes like yourselves allow SmackDowns main event to end in such a farcical manner? CHRISTIAN- You saw exactly what happened Teddy! That crazy fool went too far! He cost himself the match, he knew the rules. And when he realised what he had done, rather than blame himself, he blamed me, and took out his aggression on me. ORTON- How convenient that you leave out the real issue, Christian. You, Teddy, and all these people here know exactly what tipped me over the edge. At Money in the Bank you showed me the ultimate disrespect. You spat in my face. I've worked hard over the last year to channel my aggression into positive actions, but when you spat in my eye, you undid all that hard work in an instant. Teddy, I know I went too far, but Christian was the one who made a mockery of me, the match, and the Heavyweight title. CHRISTIAN- Bravo, Orton, Bravo. You know, if I didn't know you any better, I'd almost believe you. Almost. You see Teddy, for the purposes of this enquiry, and for the benefit of all the little Orton fans here tonight, let the records show that Randy Orton is nothing more than a liar and a hypocrite! LONG- What the hell are you talking about Playa? CHRISTIAN- Oh, what short memories you all have! Let me take you back to 2004. That was quite a year for you, huh Randall? The year of The Legend Killer if memory serves. And how exactly did you prove that you were indeed a legend killer? By spitting in the face of some of the greatest men this industry has ever known! You spit in the face of your mentor HHH. You spit in the face of one of the toughest men to ever set foot in the ring, Harley Race. You spit in the face of the hardcore legend, and the man I consider a friend and ally, Mick Foley! The way I see it, Randy, turnabout is more than fair play. If it's good enough for you to spit in the face of all those legends, then I'm certainly good enough to spit in yours! ORTON- ... <div style="text-align:center;">(As we wait for Ortons rebuttal, the Titantron flickers before finally fading to static.)</div> CHRISTIAN- Oh, how convenient! The truth too much for you to handle Randy? Sometimes the truth hurts! Spitting at Randy Orton wasn't my proudest moment, but if I hadn't done it, it was only a matter of time before... <div style="text-align:center;">(Suddenly, the screen flickers back into life...but Orton isn't there! The two guards have been knocked out, and Ortons empty chair is spinning in the room! Orton appears on the ramp and is sprinting towards Christian in the ring! Christian thinks about leaving but it is too late, Orton is already on top of him, dishing out hard right hands! Orton backs off as Christian staggers to his feet...RKO! Orton lays out Christian with his signature move as Teddy Long screams for assistance from the back. Orton gets that glazed over look in his eyes...the crowd see's what's coming next. Orton backs off towards the corner as Christian struggles to his hands and knees...Orton is going to go for a punt! Teddy Long begs for him not to do it but Orton hears nothing but the voices in his head. Officials are running down towards the ring but it is too late...Orton connects with Christians skull! The officials grab Orton and drag him backstage before any further damage can be done!) <iframe width="560" height="349" src="<a href="http://www.youtube.com/embed/h0PgTAKpeJI" rel="external nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/embed/h0PgTAKpeJI"</a> frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div> <div style="text-align:center;"> (And here comes Daniel Bryan with his MITB suitcase in hand! He charges to the ring as the crowd go wild! He places down the briefcase and stares intently at Christian. Eventually, Bryan approaches Christian...and helps him to his feet? Bryan grabs a microphone as he props Christian up in the corner.)</div> BRYAN- Every man who has ever held this briefcase has become the World Champion. Every man who has ever held this briefcase has cashed in on an injured champion. Why should I be any different, Christian? Because I AM different! I don't want to be known as another cheap champion! I'm not going to be a champion who wins by spitting in peoples faces! This Briefcase entitles me to a title shot whenever I want, and I know exactly when I want it. January 22nd....Toronto Canada....Royal Rumble 2012. <div style="text-align:center;">(With that, Daniel Bryan leaves the ring, with Christian still more than a little groggy in the corner, confused about what exactly just happened.)</div></div>

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i771.photobucket.com/albums/xx351/draculadedia/Monday-Night-Raw-Intro-2010--Graphics-HD-www.gif</div>

A week has passed since CM Punks shocking WWE title win at MITB. With a fired John Cena and a contract lapsed Punk out of action, it seems that there is more than a little spirit of the old west going around the Raw roster! We saw Zack Ryder attack Vince McMahon, Miz and Truth both proclaim to be the top dog, Alberto set out on a quest to bring back the title by force, and Rey Mysterio run away with the ring bell! Tonight, will Sheriff Vince be able to round up the outlaws and restore order to his flagship show? He certainly hopes so!

Both men want to be the new WWE Champion, but Vince has already established that he will not crown a new champion until Alberto Del Rio returns the WWE Championship to him. With that in mind, Vince has booked The Miz vs R Truth tonight, with the winner certain to gain favour with the chairman of the board.

Although he escaped being fired by beating Alberto Del Rio, Zack Ryder is still very much in Vince's firing line. Tonight, Zack takes part in a handicap match against Dolph Ziggler and Drew Mcintyre as punishment for his actions.

Also tonight, US Champion Kofi Kingston will defend his title against Jack Swagger in what is sure to be an awesome match.

Santino Marella continues his crusade for the return of WWE Icecream bars tonight, as he goes one on one with the other half of the tag champions, David Otunga.

All this, plus Vince has promised to address the state of the WWE Championship only on Raw, live and in HD, tonight.

Haha if you wanna chat to me for some "pearls of wisdom" you know where I am! But if you quit this diary after 3 weeks of shows, so help me God...

Smackdown was a great show, liked the ending very much. I think you've nailed the essence of the characters of Orton and Bryan pretty well throughout. From what I've heard, I don't think the WWE has done enough of building up Bryan as a normal guy, as I think people can get behind him as he's not great looknig, he's not some 6'10 muscly freak, he's just a quality wrestler who has obviously worked hard at it. If they want to be PG, there's a pretty great message in there for kids.

I don't think WWE puts enough emphasis on the bad side of Orton's character (until now). The interetsing thing about him is this crazy side, which should get him in to more problems. It's like Cena and his "always doing the right thing" spiel. That's why I thought MITB ruled, they actually focused on the negatives of Orton and Cena for once and it made it really interesting.

wow, that was quite an essay. Guess I had a lot to get off my chest after being missing for so long!

Loving this diary already. My main focus will be on NXT--you are actually doing it right so far.

BoomKing · August 4, 2011

(After the usual introduction, we see Alberto Del Rio in the office of Vince McMahon. A caption at the bottom of the screen informs us that this occurred as Raw went off the air last week. Del Rio is pacing up and down, holding the back of his head.)

ALBERTO- I had the match won, Zack Ryder was going to tap! If I ever get hold of Rey Mysterio...

VINCE- I don't care about Rey Mysterio! Quite frankly, I don't care about Zack Ryder. All I care about, Mr Del Rio, is obtaining my WWE Championship. I won't have it made a laughing stock. I won't allow it to be placed in a refrigerator and posted on friend-face dammit! Please, Alberto, bring me back my championship.

(Del Rio leaves an ashen faced Mr McMahon and heads out into the chicago night in search of CM Punk, and more importantly, The WWE Championship.)

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

KOFI KINGSTON VS JACK SWAGGER

This match is for the United States championship, a championship that Kofi currently holds and defends with honour. Swagger is a very impressive competitor, but one who has failed to capitalise on his solitary World Title reign. He looks to take the early advantage, grounding the outstanding aerialist Kofi with a bit of ground and pound. Kofi is nothing of not resilient though, and manages to turn the tides, putting swagger away with the Trouble In Paradise.

WINNER: KOFI KINGSTON

(Post match, Swagger regroups and makes a hasty retreat, leaving Kofi alone with a microphone.)

KOFI- Last week, I heard a lot of claims being made about who should be the main man on Raw. The Miz, R Truth, Alberto Del Rio, they all want to be the Champion. Well, I hate to burst your bubble guys, but with the WWE title currently being in a state of flux, there's only one champion on Raw, and that's me! I am the current, reigning and defending United States Champion, the highest recognised champion on Raw! So as far as I am concerned, you can all get in line for a shot at this title, because I'm the new top dog!

(Suddenly, Kofi is interrupted by the familiar music of Zack Ryder!)

RYDER- Steady on there bro! Let the records state that you are indeed a spectacular US Champion! I would totally "like" that status. The fact remains, that there is one man on Raw who holds a title that represents more than The United States. A title that represents the entire world....wide web.

(Ryder opens up his immaculately decorated jacket to reveal a title belt around his waist.)

RYDER- I think you know what I'm talking about, K2. I am the current, reigning, and yet to defend, self proclaimed Internet Champion, browski! So maybe people better get out of your line, and join the fastest growing line in sports entertainment, the line behind me and my title! Woo woo woo...

(But before Ryder can finish that particular line, we are joined by another superstar, this time in the form of Rey Mysterio.)

REY- One week. Is that all it took for us to turn against each other? When the history books are written about this moment it time, what are they going to say? That good men let their ego's get the better of them, and allowed the company they had worked so hard to get to, The WWE, to collapse around them?

RYDER- Yo, Mysterio, if it wasn't for your selfless actions last week, I wouldn't even be in this ring right now. I owe you bro, big time, and I totally hear what you're saying! What would JC do, right?

KOFI- JC?

RYDER- John Cena, man, get with the programme! Yeesh...

REY- John may be fired, CM Punk may have run away with the prize, but I'm still here. United States Champion Kofi Kingston, you are still here. Internet Champion Zack Ryder, even you're still here, bro! We shouldn't be fighting with each other. We should be celebrating another day, united, in The WWE. You saw how close Zack was to losing his job last week, and no doubt there's some punishment for me on it's way, so how much longer do you think we can last if we fight with each other?

(Almost right on cue, here comes the venerable owner, Vince McMahon, clearly with something to say.)

VINCE- How much longer, Rey? Is that what you want to know? How much longer do you think you can last? Well, I'm a generous man, never let it be said that I'm not. I'm all about opportunity. So here's an opportunity for Zack and Kofi. I'm going to let you two decide just how much longer Rey Mysterio has...I personally guarantee a WWE title shot to the first of you two to beat the crap out of him!

(Zack and Kofi eye Vince McMahon in disbelief, then each other, before finally focussing on Rey.)

REY- You two are stronger than this! First of all, what makes either of you think he will keep his word?

VINCE- I'm Vincent Kennedy McMahon! I'm nothing without my word! You might want to hurry up though guys because my offer expires in one minute.

(Kofi and Zack close in on Rey, surrounding him. Rey backs off into the corner, pleading with them to listen to him. Kofi is the first to react... and grabs Rey's microphone.)

KOFI- Thanks for the offer, Vince, but I respectfully decline.

(Kofi raises his US Title one more time and leaves the ring. Vince is annoyed, but quickly turns his attention to Ryder.)

VINCE- Tick Tock Zack. The clock's ticking, "bro!" What's it going to be? A shot at a real title, or a career of humiliation?

ZACK- Sir, I've already suffered through a career of humiliation at the hands of you and your staff...but I thrive on it! The more times you knock me back, the more I get up and keep on winning homie. Woo Woo Woo, you know it!

VINCE- You really are as dumb as you look, huh? That's a real shame, Zack, because later tonight, I'm going to address the state of the WWE Championship in this very ring. And in that address, I'm going to make it perfectly clear that neither you, Kofi Kingston or Rey Mysterio will ever recieve another title shot again! Oh, and you might as well stay out here, because you've got a handicap match against Ziggler and Mcintyre, and it's next!

ZACK RYDER VS DOLPH ZIGGLER AND DREW MCINTYRE

Rey Mysterio hung around at ringside to cheer on his new ally, and to make sure that Dolph and Drew stuck to the tag format of the match. Unfortunately, it wasn't enough for Ryder, who fought valiantly, but the numbers game eventually proved too much.

WINNERS- ZIGGLER AND MCINTYRE

---------------------------------------------------------------------

(After the match, we cut to a video of a few days ago at The San Diego Comic Con. Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez are making their way through the crowds, towards the WWE Panel, apparently a few moments too late.)

ALBERTO- He was here alright, Ricardo, I can still smell him. This place is a breeding ground for geeks like him, with their fantastic four lunchboxes...

(Alberto heads to the front of the room, where Triple H and the rest of the panel are packing up.)

ALBERTO- Señor H! Which way did he go?!

HHH- Punk? He took a left I think. That moron's probably long gone by now though.

ALBERTO- Gracias Señor H! Quick Ricardo, time is of the essence!

(And with that, Alberto and Ricardo make a sharp exit in their hunt for CM Punk.)

---------------------------------------------------------------------

(Meanwhile, backstage, Santino Marella is in the interview area.)

MARELLA- Last week, I made a vow. A vow that I would go on hunger strike until the sunamaguns at the gellato factory brought back the WWE Icecream bars! Well, as it turns out, a week is a really long time, and Santino needs the proteins for his muscles! So this week, I present to you a new vow. I say to myself, "Hey Santino!" For that is my name. "Santino, what is it that Americans love more than Icecream?" And I said, "That's quite a conundrum Santino! What do Americans love more than the Icecream?" And then it hit me, America loves winners! So, from this day forth, I Santino Marella vow that I will go on a glorious winning streak, wreaking a path of distruction, until the gellato factory powers up the Icecream bar machine once more! Thankyou so much!

SANTINO MARELLA VS DAVID OTUNGA

So, here starts The Santino Streak...or so we thought. Santino seems so consumed by his lust for Icecream bars that he takes his eye off the ball in this match somewhat, and allows Otunga to pick up the victory.

WINNER- DAVID OTUNGA

(Post match, Santino looks distraught. His dream of delicious Icecream bars seeming to slip through his grasp. )

---------------------------------------------------------------------

(We go back to Alberto and Ricardo, this time at a small arena. They appear to be backstage, walking past several unknown wrestlers.)

ALBERTO- PUNK! I know you're hiding somewhere amongst these nobodies! I know you're here tonight, reveal yourself! God how I loathe these tiny bingo halls and the so called wrestlers who compete here.

(Suddenly, Alberto bumps into Colt Cabana.)

ALBERTO- You!? I might have known a rat like you would be following the pied piper! Tell me where Punk is hiding or I'll...

CABANA- Or what?

(A group of wrestlers start to gather around Alberto and Ricardo, suddenly, one of them steps forward.)

WRESTLER- I'm CM Punk!

(Then another steps forward.)

OTHER WRESTLER- No! I'm CM Punk!

(Before long, each and every man is shouting "I'm CM Punk" over and over, until Alberto and Ricardo back down and head for the door.)

ALBERTO- This isn't over Cabana! Tell the real Punk I'll see him soon, and I'm coming for the title...

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

(Josh Matthews is backstage with R Truth before his match with The Miz.)

JOSH- R Truth, tonight you face The Miz after tagging with him to victory last week. With the anonymous general manager taking an interest in your matches, and Vince McMahon set to address the state of the title later tonight, do you feel that a victory tonight will put you in the frame to become the new WWE Champion?

TRUTH- Maybe...if I was a white boy with a message, or a reality TV star, or somebody else who fits the mould! But you see, they broke the mould when they made me! There aint no copies, I aint no Cylon! So even if I win, even when I win, I wont be holding my breath none. Too many little Jimmies up in here tonight, Josh, even though their hero is history. They'll find somebody else to whoop and hollar for soon enough, but it won't be me. You see the Jimmies want a catchy theme tune and a T-shirt. The Jimmies can't handle The Truth. Maybe one day, the WWE will be free of conspiracy, and the cream will rise to the top...

(Before Truth can finish that thought, he is interrupted by a familiar face. )

MORRISON- Truth, Truth, Truth...I've sat at home, injured because of you, listening to you whine and complain about conspiracies and "Little Jimmies." And now, two of the biggest roadblocks stopping you from getting to the top, John Cena and CM Punk, have left...yet you still whine and complain. Face facts, there is no conspiracy, Truth. The truth is, you haven't got what it takes to be a champion. And now I'm back, and I'm going to be the one who shows you what a real champion looks like. Forget about the Little Jimmies...from tonight....they're all Little Johnnies.

(Morrison leaves, leaving Truth looking confused.)

TRUTH- Little Johnnies..?

(As Truth goes to leave, Morrison comes back in the picture and grabs hold of Truths shoulder.)

MORRISON- Oh, I almost forgot...

(Morrison leans back and hits Truth square in the jaw, sending him to the floor.)

MORRISON- That's for putting me on the shelf!

R TRUTH VS THE MIZ

And we are ready for our main event of the evening. Truth comes to the ring holding his jaw, thanks to the punch from a returning John Morrison. The Miz uses Truths confusion to get the better of the opening exchanges, but Truths undoubted athletic ability gives him a foothold in the match, and allows him to work back to his vertical base. What follows is an evenly contested affair, stopped short by interference from the enormous Big Show! Show double chokeslams both men!

WINNER- NO CONTEST DUE TO BIG SHOW INTERFERENCE

(As Big Show stands tall, Ziggler and McIntyre rush the ring and go to work on the recently injured leg of Show. They take him down to the canvas, but Ryder and Kofi Kingston rush the ring to get themselves a piece of the action, before long, Morrison, Swagger, Bourne and Alex Riley have all joined in the assault in the ring. Mysterio comes down to try and restore some order, but it is too little too late.)

(Vince screams over a house mic for order in his ring, and eventually, thanks to help from various officials and referees, he gets it. Vince stands on the ramp and looks at the carnage in the ring.)

VINCE- Look at you all! Like rabid dogs fighting over scraps from the table! Just because Cena and Punk are gone, don't forget for one minute who has the real power around here! With that in mind, before the arguing and fighting gets any worse, I'm going to officially address the state of the WWE Championship right now.

It is a time honoured tradition in this business, a practice that outdates all of you and me as well, that nobody leaves a promotion holding the world championship. What CM Punk did, the position he forced me and my staff into, was abhorrent, shameful, and showed a deep lack of respect to each and every one of you. With that in mind, I have no choice but to vacate CM Punk of The WWE Championship. His reign will not be recognised by The WWE.

Of course that leaves us without a champion. And since so many of you seem to want to assert your dominance all of a sudden, we're going to have ourselves an old fashioned battle royal whenever Alberto Del Rio returns the WWE Title to me. And you'll all be in it...well, except for Kofi, Rey and Zack Ryder of course. And the winner of that battle royal will be declared the new...

(But we have a timely interruption from The Anonymous Raw General Manager. Cole makes his way to the podium and begins to read.)

COLE- ...and I quote. Vince McMahon, with all due respect, perhaps it is you who is forgetting who has the real power. As Raw General manager, all issues regarding championships and matches thereof, go through me. I have not approved any stripping of titles, nor have I endorsed any battle royals. Therefore, in my eyes and until further notice, CM Punk is still The WWE Champion. Punk will have a further twenty two days to respond directly to my office, at which point the thirty day inactive rule will come into effect. Until such time, all discussion of possible champions and contenders in null and void. And before you think about going over my head on this matter, Vince, I have the full backing of the board.

(The wrestlers in the ring are clearly frustrated. Vince on the ramp is crest fallen.)

VINCE- This is how we're going to play this? I keep your anonymity for months, and you repay me by slapping me in the face and disrespecting me in front of a ring full of my employees? Not only that, you go behind my back and lobby to my board of directors?

You know what? I'm getting sick and tired of this crap week after week after week. If it's not Punk making me jump through hoops, or John Cena failing my, Zack Ryder abusing me, Rey Mysterio ruining the ending to the show I created...It's you, of all people, humiliating me. Well, I hope you're happy, because this is the very last time you humiliate me! As of this moment, I step down from my active duties! That's right! I'm fired! Let's see how long you can keep this show afloat without my direct input you ungrateful bastard! Let's see how long the directors confidence lasts in you shall we!

I QUIT!
