This is the 24 (maybe 48) hour warning!

 

Thanks to everyone who's predicted so far and thanks to everyone for voting WrestleMania the Monthly Spotlight for January! That poll never got a conclusive ending but I assume it's done now. This is my first recognition and it's pretty cool! There are so many great diaries going on right now and to be recognized as one of the top ones keeps me inspired as a writer to keep going :)

The two locked up and the early going was a dead heat. Every time Nitro would put on an arm wringer or something to slow the pace, Gunn would kip-up and reverse it, taking Nitro down in the process. Both men showcased impressive chain wrestling skills early, and Nitro eventually gained the advantage with a side headlock. Gunn pushed him off into the ropes and he received a back body drop! Nitro got up quickly nursing his back and ran at Gunn, who pulled down the top rope sending the Hollywood superstar hurtling to the floor!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Melina rushed over to her man to make sure he was okay, helping him up in the process. She let out a piercing scream as Gunn hit a baseball slide, sending Nitro into the barricade! Billy went outside the ring to continue his pursuit, slamming Johnny’s head into the barricade before throwing him back in the ring. Billy picked him up and received an eye rake for his efforts, giving Nitro some control. He hit a couple of European uppercuts and used dirty tactics like rubbing his elbow in Gunn’s face to keep him in control of the matchup.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Nitro showed off a variety of interesting moves, such as a standing shooting star press which got a two count. He picked up Gunn and went for a back suplex, but Gunn flipped out the back of it. Nitro caught him off guard with a capoeira kick which shook his skull and drew “ooh”s from the crowd. Nitro hooked the leg again, but Gunn was able to kick out. Nitro was starting to get frustrated, and Gunn capitalized by hitting him with a scoop slam after ducking a punch. He followed that up with a fallaway slam, but was unable to capitalize.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">The two met on their feet and Gunn was able to reverse an Irish whip into the corner. He ran at Gunn and hit a Stinger splash, dazing his opponent. Billy hit a powerslam to Nitro, but Melina got up on the apron! With the referee distracted, Gunn wasn’t able to get the three count. He walked over to her and with the referee trying to push Gunn away, Melina slapped him across the face! Johnny Nitro was able to seize the opportunity, rolling up the dazed Billy Gunn with his feet on the ropes for the win!

Mack started off against D-Von Dudley, holding him down with rest holds and power moves. D-Von was isolated for the early part of the match before breaking out of a suplex attempt by Shelton and making a tag. Bubba Ray came in and saw some success, but Shelton was able to use his athleticism to hit a springboard dropkick to his chest! He made the tag to Rodney Mack.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Mack beat up on Bubba Ray a bit more, but when D-Von was tagged in, he got back in the fight. He hit a reverse DDT which got a two count, but he stayed on the attack. He tagged in Bubba Ray, who looked for the Bubba Cutter, but was pushed off and turned around into a running big boot instead. Mack only got a two count, but tagged Benjamin in. Shelton continued the roll, making sure that Bubba was unable to tag out following his mistake against Mack. He went for a T-Bone Suplex, but Bubba landed a couple of elbows to the head and a scoop slam. He tagged in D-Von, who came in off the hot tag and cleared the ring.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">The champions fought back with flawless tag team work, tagging in and out frequently to preserve strength. The finish came when Shelton was unable to avoid hitting Mack as Bubba ducked a flying lariat. Mack hit the ground and Shelton turned around into a 3-D for a successful title defense!</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 62 ©</span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: Rodney Mack's in-ring<br id="">skills are improving thanks to<br id="">Shelton, which was the point<br id="">of forming this team.<br id=""> </span></div></div> </div></div></div><div style="padding:0 5px;overflow:hidden;"><div id=""><div style="height: 18px; cursor: n-resize;"></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div id=""><span style="color: #ffffff;">___________________________________________________________________________________</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">In the back, Shawn Michaels cuts a promo about his involvement in the World Heavyweight Championship match tonight.</span></div></div> </div><div style="position:relative;"><img style="float:left;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/LEKpexqs.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/LEKpexqs.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; left: 103px; top: 53px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 0px 10px 123px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 554px; top: 0px;"><div style="" id=""><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Tonight, “The Heartbreak Kid” Shawn Michaels sits atop the mountain one more time.

He was able to fight off a bunch of knife-edged chops to hit a knee lift to the gut and throw Benoit into the corner. He landed punches to his ribs and chest and finally a couple to his head. He whipped Benoit hard into the opposite turnbuckle, sending him bouncing off of it and to the ground. Batista let out a roar as Flair applauded, the crowd turning up the volume of their boos. Batista locked the former WWE Champion in a rear chinlock. “The Animal” dominated this part of the early going.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Continuing his assault on the neck area of Chris Benoit, he locked in a Dragon sleeper, which Benoit eventually was able to twist his way out of. He ran forward and pushed Batista into the corner, but the referee broke them up and that was all Batista needed to hit another knee lift. Benoit shrugged this one off, however, and hit a dropkick to Batista’s knee. He then hit a pair of snap suplexes and bounced off the ropes but was nearly decapitated by a gigantic clothesline from Batista! He made the cover, but Benoit threw his shoulder up.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">“The Rabid Wolverine” looked essentially out on his feet as Batista lifted him up. Out of nowhere, Benoit used a Dragon screw to bring Batista down and looked to lock in a Sharpshooter! Batista shoved Benoit across the ring with his massive legs, but Benoit rushed back toward him. Batista tried to lay him out with a huge clothesline again, but Benoit caught his arm and slowly but surely locked in the Crippler Crossface! Batista crawled ever closer to the ropes and was within fingertips as the referee looked toward him. From the outside, Ric Flair pushed the bottom rope to him and Benoit was forced to break the hold!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Batista was able to fight back without the use of his left arm, overpowering Chris Benoit with a big powerslam. Benoit kicked out and Batista lifted him up, now getting angry. He screamed in his face as he grabbed his neck and lifted him up. Benoit fought down and hit a running forearm. He somehow got behind Batista and hit a German suplex…and another…and a third! He did a throat cutting motion as he went to the top rope, but missed a diving headbutt! Batista picked him up and bounced him into the ropes, looking for a Spinebuster but “The Rabid Wolverine” jumped out of it and locked in the Crossface again! Nowhere near the ropes, Batista was only able to tap out to lessen his pain! Chris Benoit has made “The Animal” tap out!</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 76 (B-)</span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: Batista was pretty winded towards<br id="">the end, he couldn't keep up with<br id="">Benoit's fast-paced action.<br id=""></span></div></div> </div></div></div><div style="padding:0 5px;overflow:hidden;"><div id=""><div style="height: 18px; cursor: n-resize;"></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div id=""><span style="color: #ffffff;">___________________________________________________________________________________</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Tajiri is backstage warming up for his match.

Jericho snapped and tackled Christian to the ground, throwing wild punches. An awkward-looking scrum ensued as Christian tried to squirm away from his rabid ex-best friend. Jericho flailed and tried to hold Christian down so he could beat him down physically, but to no avail. Trish grabbed Christian’s hand and guided him out of the ring, getting Jericho frustrated. With Christian regrouping on the outside already, Jericho went to the top rope and landed a plancha onto him, narrowly missing Trish!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Both men were down on the ground and as they got to their feet, they traded blows. Christian raked Jericho’s eyes and broke the count by rolling in and out of the ring. Jericho fought back and went to whip Christian into the ring post, but Christian countered and sent Y2J into it shoulder-first! Christian smirked and went on the attack, grabbing his old friend and rolling him into the ring. He dropped an elbow on his neck from the outside of the ring before rolling in the ring and locking in a Camel Clutch on Jericho.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Jericho fought hard to get to the ropes and eventually broke the hold. Not long after, Christian slapped the back of Jericho’s head and put his head and arms on the second rope. He stood up on Jericho’s back and pulled the top rope up for leverage, placing an immense amount of pressure on Y2J’s upper body. Christian got off after a four count from the ref and slapped his chest before pointing into the crowd. Jericho began to stir as Christian climbed to the top, and Y2J caught him with a springboard dropkick, sending him crashing to the ground!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Christian looked to get back in the ring, but Jericho hit him with a baseball slide and went out after him. Y2J slammed his head against the announce table and started to beat up on his ex-friend. He dropped Christian at the sight of Trish, who he chased around the ring for a bit before getting caught with a couple of punches and reverse DDT by Christian on the floor! He thought that was it, but Jericho was able to climb in by a 9 count. He immediately dished out some more punishment to Christian, shrugging off a few punches and hit Christian with a powerbomb!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Jericho bounced off the ropes and hit a Lionsault, but this only got a two count! Jericho thought that was it for sure, but Y2J had more work to do. Jericho caught Christian with a running spinning heel kick, and Christian got back up to his feet groggily. Trish, at this point, got up on the apron and started yelling at Y2J, who grabbed her by the hair and brought her in the ring! He went to put her in the Walls of Jericho, but Christian grabbed his arms and went for the Unprettier! After a brief struggle, Jericho pushed Christian off of him – right into Trish Stratus! He stumbled into Jericho, who grabbed his legs and slapped on the Walls in the middle of the ring! Christian had no choice but to give up! Jericho wins!</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 78 (B)</span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: 11:47. </span></div></div> </div></div></div><div style="padding:0 5px;overflow:hidden;"><div id=""><div style="height: 18px; cursor: n-resize;"></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div id=""><span style="color: #ffffff;">___________________________________________________________________________________</span></div></div> </div><div style="position: relative; margin-top: 0px;"><img style="float:left;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/M2X28hns.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/M2X28hns.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; left: 103px; top: 21px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 0px 10px 123px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 403px; top: 0px;"><div style="" id=""><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Jericho gets his WrestleMania revenge on that creepy little bastard and his harlot girlfriend!

Lita landed two monkey flips and went for another cover, which garnered a two count. She picked Molly up and went for a Twist of Fate already, but Molly blocked it and hit a snap suplex. Lita got back up and was whipped by Molly into the corner. Lita jumped up, looking for a springboard headscissors, but Molly tossed her from the top rope to the floor!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Molly went outside the ring, slammed Lita’s head into the ring apron and rolled her into the ring. Molly went for the cover but to no avail. Molly took over from here, locking in a rear chinlock and then a Dragon sleeper, neither of which were able to keep Lita out of it. Lita was able to use the ropes to flip over Molly while she was locked in the Dragon sleeper and break it with a reverse DDT! Molly kicked out at two, but the crowd was impressed by that spot. Molly reversed a whip into the corner and hit a handspring back elbow. She hit Lita with a DDT, but got a near fall for her efforts.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Molly continued her assault, whipping Lita into the ropes and hitting a sidewalk slam for another two count. She started to pull Lita’s hair and pushed her into the corner. Molly went up for a 10-punch combo, but Lita reversed it into a powerbomb! Lita was unable to make the cover, though, and both got to their feet before the double count out. Molly climbed up to the top rope, looking for the Molly-Go-Round, but Lita hit her with a handstand hurricanrana and then climbed up for the Litasault for the win! Lita is the new Women’s Champion!</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 55 (C-) </span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: 7:23 </span></div></div> </div></div></div><div style="padding:0 5px;overflow:hidden;"><div id=""><div style="height: 18px; cursor: n-resize;"></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div id=""><span style="color: #ffffff;">___________________________________________________________________________________</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">In the back, Johnny Nitro and Melina are hugging and celebrating the big win from earlier tonight.

Tajiri had avoided the wrath of Kane on RAW thus far, and the early going here was no different. Tajiri started the opening minutes of this matchup avoiding lunges by “The Big Red Machine” and landing kicks, frustrating the monster. Tajiri bounced off the ropes and ducked a clothesline and a big boot before landing a back elbow and a dropkick to the knee. He went for the Buzzsaw Kick but Kane ducked. He grabbed Tajiri by the throat, but Tajiri slid underneath his legs and pushed Kane forward and through the ropes to the floor! Kane was frustrated, but Tajiri didn’t let him catch his breath, instead hitting a springboard moonsault onto him to the floor!</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Tajiri got up first and Kane was reeling. Tajiri hit a Shining Wizard on the floor and got back into the ring. Kane made it in at a seven count, and the flurry continued. Tajiri hit a handspring back elbow to the corner and then looked to lock in the Tarantula. As Kane was too big for the hold to be applied, Tajiri was dumped over the ropes to the floor! Kane finally found a way to get the fly away from him with a fly swatter, heading outside the ring and whipping Tajiri into the steel steps. Kane looked to be in complete control at this point.</span><br id=""><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">With the two men back inside the ring, Kane dealt some punishment, taking his frustrations out on Tajiri with a backbreaker, a short arm clothesline, a DDT, and a military press drop. He choked him and laughed, attacking him some more. He looked to plant the Japanese Buzzsaw with a powerbomb, but Tajiri reversed it into a flip-over DDT! He crawled over to Kane and covered him, but Kane kicked out! The two got to their feet and Tajiri ran off the ropes and locked in an Octopus Stretch! Just when he had Kane to one knee, “The Big Red Machine” pushed off and fell backwards, crushing Tajiri underneath his weight! Kane took over from here, hitting not one but two Chokeslams to exert his dominance and claim a victory over the valiant Tajiri.</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 78 (B)</span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: 10:21. </span></div></div> </div></div></div><div style="padding:0 5px;overflow:hidden;"><div id=""><div style="height: 18px; cursor: n-resize;"></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div id=""><span style="color: #ffffff;">___________________________________________________________________________________</span></div></div> </div><div style="position: relative; margin-top: 0px;"><img style="float:left;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/M2X28hns.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/M2X28hns.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; left: 103px; top: 31.5px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-l.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 0px 10px 123px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 312px; top: 0px;"><div style="" id=""><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">What a destructive performance by "The Big Red Machine," but speaking of destructive, our next matchup has the potential to destroy lives.</span></div></div><div id=""></div></div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 10px; position: relative;" align="right"><div style="float:right;"><img style="float: right;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; right: 103px; top: 31.5px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; text-align: left; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 123px 10px 0px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 281px; top: 0px;"><div style="" id=""><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Oh boy, you've got that right JR; I wouldn't want to be the loved ones of Randy Orton or Mick Foley, this one's gonna be bloody.</span></div></div><div id=""></div></div></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Next, a hype video airs showing the long-standing feud between Mick Foley and the Intercontinental Champion Randy Orton.

He went to whip Foley into the opposite corner, but Cactus reversed it and started to capitalize.

He slammed Orton’s head on the apron and then the announce table, tearing the cover off of it. He eventually managed to get Orton into a DDT position, and Orton ran him forward, slamming his lower back into the apron! Orton took over from here, using closed fists to further heat up this personal rivalry. Orton whipped Foley into the steel steps, sending the top part flying.

He hit a big European uppercut to knock Foley into the corner and picked up the kendo stick. He ran at Cactus with it, but received a kick to the gut. Foley stole the stick and started to feed off the crowd, giving Orton some whipping with the stick on the back, chest, and head!

Jack came at him again, but was dropped with an inverted backbreaker. Orton gave a sadistic smile and grabbed the thumbtacks, spreading them all over the set-up table! Cactus fought back as Orton went to slam him through the table, eventually scraping Orton’s head with the barbed wire bat!

As Orton was down, Foley looked into the crowd before diving off and hitting an elbow drop to the champion!

After a cover, Foley kicked out and both were spent in the middle of the ring. They got to their feet and traded blows, both men on jelly legs. Foley got the advantage and went for a Double Arm DDT, but Orton broke out and went up for an RKO. Somehow, Foley was able to muster the strength to toss the Intercontinental Champion onto the thumbtacks and through the table! Randy writhed in pain as Foley had fallen, now crawling over to make the cover.

He took it to Cactus, but after a couple of shots with Barbie, Foley began to get revitalized. Both men now bleeding profusely, Mick took the trash can and bashed it over Orton’s skull. Once again, he pulled out Mr. Socko, this time successfully locking in the Mandible Claw! Orton slowly faded as Cactus locked in his nerve hold, and he was close to passing out. Almost out of nowhere, Orton put in a last ditch effort to break the hold by jumping up – and connecting with an RKO! Orton rolled over and simply laid down backwards on Foley, the referee counting the 1-2-3 for a Legend Killer victory!</span></div></div> </div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: right;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><strong id="">Rating</strong>: 83 (B+)</span><br id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;"><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Notes</span>: 19:31. </span></div></div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:10px; position:relative;" align="right"><div style="float:right;"><img style="float: right;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; right: 103px; top: 21px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; text-align: left; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 123px 10px 0px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 330px; top: 0px;"><div style="" id=""><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Orton did it!

Van Dam and Michaels both turned and went after Triple H, before RVD took out Michaels also. He started with some quick offense, landing kicks to Michaels in the corner and a monkey flip to Triple H. With his opponents in disarray, Van Dam hit a few more kicks before turning around into a punch to the gut from Michaels. Shawn hit some chops and whipped Van Dam into the corner. He slingshotted himself over HBK but was clubbed in the back of the head by the champion, flattening him.</span></div></div> </div><div style="margin-bottom:10px; position:relative;" align="right"><div style="float:right;"><img style="float: right;" src="<a href="http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg" rel="external nofollow">http://i.imgur.com/gomN8bXs.jpg"</a> alt="Speaker" height="113px" width="113px"><img style="position: absolute; right: 103px; top: 21px;" src="<a href="http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png" rel="external nofollow">http://fictionplus.interwebz.co.nz/images/layout/sbpointer/sb-pointer-ffffff-r.png"</a> height="20px" width="22px"></div><div style="font-size: 16px; line-height: normal; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; position: relative; text-align: left; background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% rgb(255, 255, 255); margin: 0px 123px 10px 0px; padding: 7px; border-radius: 15px; width: 300px; height: auto;"><div style="" id=""><div id=""><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">It was only a matter of time before "The Game" took over, JR.</span></div></div><div id=""></div></div></div><div style="clear: both; position: relative; padding: 5px; margin: 5px 0px 10px; top: 5px; height: auto; border: 1px solid transparent;"> <div style="font-size: 16px; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; display: block;"><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: calibri,arial,sans-serif; color: #ff0000;">Triple H picked him up and began to actually work with Shawn Michaels, as they both did a bit of a number on Van Dam. HHH then turned toward HBK and hit some punches. He whipped Michaels into the ropes and after Michaels ducked a clothesline, Triple H hit a high knee. RVD got up and was punched back down by Triple H, who went back toward Shawn Michaels. HHH whipped him into the ropes and was caught on the way back with a swinging neckbreaker! Now back up again, Van Dam went to the top rope and hit a flying side kick to Michaels!

Michaels whipped Triple H into the ropes and went for a back body drop, but HHH stopped and hit a facebuster! He went for a cover, which was broken up by Van Dam.

Michaels slammed RVD’s head onto the ring apron, knocking him back onto the ground. As Triple H and RVD got up, Michaels decided to one-up his opponent, hitting a springboard moonsault to both men!

Shawn eventually built up enough strength to break out, but got caught with a short arm clothesline by the champion.

He stood in the corner and started to tune up the band, but Van Dam ducked and hit a superkick of his own! He landed Rolling Thunder before looking into the crowd, who began to go nuts. Van Dam jumped to the top rope and landed the Five Star Frog Splash to Shawn Michaels! Van Dam rolled around, clutching his ribs, allowing “The Cerebral Assassin” time to get back in the matchup!

<p>Backlash was certainly an exciting read... shame RVD still couldn't get the job done, though <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Hopefully you can take Johnny Nitro higher than he ever got in real life.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Lita ©</strong> vs. Molly Holly</p><p>

Comment: Lita will retain in what I hope is a long reign.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Billy Gunn</strong> vs. A-Train</p><p>

Comment: I think you have some plans for Gunn, which is good. I like him. Mabe rebuild his momentum to do a rematch with the amazing Nitro?</p><p> </p><p>

The Hurricane and Rosey vs. <strong>Shelton Benjamin and Rodney Mack</strong></p><p>

Comment: I think you might be on to something with this imromptu team, so I wouldn't be surprised if they won a few matches to pursue the belts again. Besides, Rodney is learning something. I'll bet on them.</p><p> </p><p>

Chris Jericho vs. <strong>Christian w/Trish Stratus</strong></p><p><strong>

</strong> Comment: Christian definitely needs the win, and it won't hurt Y2J much, since it's on TV.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Chris Benoit</strong> vs. Ric Flair</p><p>

Comment: Benoit ftw. I'm betting he might be a world title contender soon. Which is too bad, since I was rooting for Shawn to take the belt. <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Loved the PPV, too bad HBK didn't win, but it was a great show and a great reading.</p>

Show's ready to go, but I figured I'd give the regular predictors an extra bit of time. I'll post by tomorrow.

 

I'm also about to book Judgment Day in-game, which I'm hoping turns out to be as good as Backlash was rating-wise. Angle/Guerrero for the belt should be a good one.
