Pre-Show: Cameron versus Raquel Diaz

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Cameron defeated Raquel Diaz in 17:50 by pinfall with a Springboard Bulldog. Cameron was visibly tiring towards the end of this match against the daughter of the WWE Hall of Famer the late, great Eddie Guerrero as well as the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero, Raquel Diaz. However, despite having inferior physical conditioning, the Funkadaktyll Cameron was still able to pick up the all-important victory in this Divas match.

Match Rating: F+

 

Pre-Show: Alexander Rusev and Marcus Owens versus Hunico and Camacho

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Rusev & Owens defeated Hunico & Camacho in 17:40 when Alexander Rusev defeated Hunico by pinfall with a Big Splash. The former Funkadaktyll Cameron returned to ringside for this match following her earlier victory over Raquel Diaz as Cameron accompanied the team of Alexander Rusev and Marcus Owens to the ring for this tag team match. Cameron offered cheerleading as well as vocal support to both Rusev and Owens throughout this match that goes the distance and ends with Rusev pinning Hunico.

Match Rating: F

 

Pre-Show: Fatsuhiko Nakajima versus Kalisto

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Kalisto defeated Fatsuhiko Nakajima in 17:34 by pinfall with a Rising Sun. Fatsuhiko Nakajima was really off his game tonight which led to Kalisto picking up the win here.

The WWE Superstars commentary team of Josh Mathews, Joey Styles and Matt Striker note during this match that both of these tag teams would love the opportunity to challenge for the WWE Tag Team Championships at some point in the future.

Match Rating: E+

 

Following its first commercial break of the evening WWE Superstars airs the RAW Rebound which recaps events from this past week’s episode of Monday Night RAW as the show began with the former WWE Champion CM Punk making his way to the ring to a chorus of jeers and boos from the WWE Universe in attendance. As per usual, Punk was accompanied to the ring by his advocate Paul Heyman. Paul Heyman retrieved a microphone from the ringside area and proclaimed that it appears that disrespecting authority gets you rewarded in the WWE in 2013 as despite months of disrespecting the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero, John Cena was swiftly awarded a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship by the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T. Also, Heyman continued, even though Randy Orton was banned from SmackDown earlier this year as he could not stop getting involved in physical confrontations, he was awarded a shot at the WWE Championship and somehow beat his client CM Punk in a total fluke to become the new WWE Champion. Heyman said that despite Orton beating Punk again in their rematch a few weeks ago, that at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month Punk will defeat Lesnar to once again become the WWE Champion. Paul Heyman then introduces another of his clients and the man that hit Randy Orton with a devastating F5 last week on Monday Night RAW, the “Beast” Brock Lesnar. The “Beast” then joins Punk and Heyman in the ring and said that Orton better watch his back before tonight’s Steel Cage main event non-title match against Kassius Ohno. Later on in the evening the WWE Champion Randy Orton made his way to the ring but was soon interrupted again by Brock Lesnar. Unlike last week, however, Orton was too quick for the onrushing Lesnar tonight and hit Lesnar with an RKO as he ran into the ring. We later saw Randy Orton backstage preparing for the evening’s Steel Cage main event match when Kassius Ohno ran into the room and threw Orton head first into a locker. Orton would get his revenge in the evening’s main event though as he defeated Kassius Ohno inside the Steel Cage.

Rating: B+

 

Nikki Bella versus Nicole Matthews

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Nikki Bella defeated Nicole Matthews in 5:51 by pinfall with a Twin Magic. The WWE Superstars commentary team note that Nikki is able to get the win here after she swaps places with her sister Brie behind the referee’s back, pulling off “Twin Magic” to attain the victory.

Match Rating: E+

 

Following our final commercial break of the evening WWE Superstars airs highlights from last week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown as the show began with the World Heavyweight Champion John Cena coming to the ring much to the delight of the WWE Universe in attendance and stating how happy he is to be on Friday Night SmackDown under the rule of the SmackDown General Manager Booker T after months of suffering what he referred to as politics at the hands of the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Dolph Ziggler then informed Cena that at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View Ziggler will once again challenge Cena for the World title. In the evening’s tag team main event John Cena and the Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston, accompanied by Langston’s manager Teddy Long, defeated Dolph Ziggler and Curtis Axel. A tweet is then shown from Booker T announcing tomorrow night’s main event of Cena taking on Curtis Axel in a non-title match.

The following contests are confirmed to take place on tonight’s edition of WWE Friday Night SmackDown:

 

Non-Title: World Heavyweight Champion John Cena versus Curtis Axel

The main event of tonight’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown was announced earlier this week via a tweet sent out from the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T and will see the World Heavyweight Champion John Cena take on Curtis Axel in non-title action. John Cena came to the ring at the beginning of SmackDown last week and once again told the WWE Universe that he is happy to be on SmackDown following months of what he referred to as political shenanigans from the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Cena was soon interrupted by Dolph Ziggler, however, who informed Cena that he will once again be putting his World title on the line against Ziggler at the upcoming Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month. Cena’s opponent tonight, Curtis Axel, will also be competing at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View as his manager Paul Heyman announced last week on SmackDown that Axel will be joining the Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston, the WWE Tag Team Champions Jimmy and Jey Uso, as well as Big Show and Damien Sandow in the World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

 

Non-Title: WWE Tag Team Champions The Uso’s versus Primo and Epico

Later this month Jimmy and Jey Uso will both be competing in the World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank ladder match along with the WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston, Curtis Axel, Big Show and Damien Sandow. Before then, however, Jimmy and Jey will be in non-title action tonight on Friday Night SmackDown as they will take on Primo and Epico. The WWE Universe in attendance tonight are likely to be fully behind the WWE Tag Team Champions in this one.

 

Non-Title: WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston versus Sheamus

The WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston will also be in action tonight on Friday Night SmackDown as he will take on Sheamus in a non-title match. Later this month Big E Langston will compete in the World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

Pre-Show: Alicia Fox versus Layla

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Alicia Fox defeated Layla in 18:27 by pinfall with a Watch Yo Face. Hornswoggle accompanied the former WWE Divas Champion Alicia Fox to ringside for this Divas match, much to the delight of the younger members of the WWE Universe in attendance. Hornswoggle offered vocal support to Alicia throughout this back and forth match between two former Divas Champions and the support of Hornswoggle may have led to Alicia picking up the all-important victory.

Match Rating: E

In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Mysterio & Cara defeated Prime Time Players in 17:37 when Sin Cara defeated Darren Young by pinfall with a 619 into a Splash. Sin Cara was really off his game tonight in this tag team match as he teamed with Mysterio to take on the Prime Time Players of Darren Young and Titus O’Neil. However, Mysterio was on form in this match and hit Darren Young with the 619 before tagging in Sin Cara who hit a Splash on Young to pick up the win for his team.

Friday Night SmackDown begins with the World Heavyweight Champion John Cena making his way to the ring to the delight of the WWE Universe in attendance. Once in the ring Cena retrieves a microphone from the ringside area and says that although people may be tired of hearing it, he’s not tired of saying it. Cena says that the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero made his life a misery for large portions of the beginning of this year but now it’s July and he is under the rule of the SmackDown General Manager Booker T and couldn’t be happier to be the World Heavyweight Champion. Cena says that at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month he will once again defeat Dolph Ziggler to retain his World Heavyweight Championship and that in tonight’s non-title main event he looks forward to beating Curtis Axel again and says that if the walrus known as Paul Heyman, Axel’s manager, gets involved in proceedings tonight, then he can expect a beat down too. Cena says that he is also aware that he has six top Superstars competing in the World Heavyweight Championship Money in the Bank ladder match later this month too and he knows that one of them will be coming after him. Dolph Ziggler then comes to the entrance-way and tells Cena that he shouldn’t look past him at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View.

The following contests are confirmed to take place on tonight’s edition of WWE Monday Night RAW:

 

Non-Title: WWE Champion Randy Orton versus Antonio Cesaro

The main event of tonight’s edition of Monday Night RAW will see the WWE Champion Randy Orton in action as he will take on one half of the Kings of Wrestling, Antonio Cesaro. The main event of last week’s edition of Monday Night RAW saw Randy Orton take on Cesaro’s Kings of Wrestling tag team partner Kassius Ohno in a Steel Cage match set up by the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Orton was able to defeat Ohno in RAW’s first Steel Cage match in over nine months much to the delight of the WWE Universe in attendance despite being attacked by Kassius Ohno backstage earlier in the evening. The manager of the Kings of Wrestling, Zeb Colter, will likely accompany Cesaro to ringside for tonight’s main event. Both of these Superstars have important matches coming up at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month as Randy Orton will put his WWE Championship on the line against CM Punk whilst Cesaro will compete in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match alongside Kassius Ohno, Kane, Daniel Bryan, Batista and the WWE United States Champion Dean Ambrose.

 

Team Hell No versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

Also tonight on Monday Night RAW we will witness tag team action as the Team Hell No pairing of Kane and Daniel Bryan will take on another pair of former WWE Tag Team Champions in Roman Reigns and William Regal. The WWE Universe in attendance tonight should be firmly behind Kane and Daniel Bryan tonight as they team up before they are opponents later this month at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View when they compete against one another in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

 

Non-Title: WWE United States Champion Dean Ambrose versus Mason Ryan

Dean Ambrose will compete in perhaps the biggest match of his career to date later this month in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match but before then the US Champion Ambrose will take on Mason Ryan in non-title action tonight on Monday Night RAW.

 

 

Batista versus Erick Rowan

The “Animal” Batista will also be in action tonight on Monday Night RAW as he will take on one third of the Wyatt Family in Erick Rowan. The WWE Universe in attendance will be firmly behind Batista in this one.

 

Santino Marella versus Kassius Ohno

Santino Marella will look to pick up what would surely be an upset and a very all-important victory over Kassius Ohno tonight on Monday Night RAW whilst Ohno will hope to build momentum against Santino heading into the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

 

Non-Title: WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee versus Emma

Finally, the WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee will take on Emma in non-title action tonight on Monday Night RAW. At the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View AJ will once again put her Divas title on the line against Kaitlyn.

 

 

 

 

Quick Picks:

Non-Title: WWE Champion Randy Orton versus Antonio Cesaro

Team Hell No versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

Non-Title: WWE United States Champion Dean Ambrose versus Mason Ryan

Batista versus Erick Rowan

Santino Marella versus Kassius Ohno

Non-Title: WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee versus Emma

WWE Monday Night RAW (Live from Rabobank Arena (CA), 8,620 in Attendance)

 

Pre-Show: Nikki Bella versus Sexy Star

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Nikki Bella defeated Sexy Star in 17:35 by pinfall with a Bella Buster. Unfortunately this Divas match needed to be a lot shorter given the two Divas who were involved with the WWE Universe in attendance still not caring too much about Sexy Star despite her making several appearances on Monday Night RAW over the past three to four months. Nikki Bella nevertheless picks up the all-important victory in this one.

Match Rating: E

 

Pre-Show: Brodus Clay and Alex Riley versus Jack Swagger and Tensai

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Swagger & Tensai defeated Brodus & Riley in 17:38 when Jack Swagger defeated Brodus Clay by submission with a Patriot Lock. The Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero accompanied the team of Jack Swagger and Tensai to ringside for this tag team match and offered vocal support throughout the match, screaming instructions in her shrill voice at both Swagger and Tensai. This may have led to Swagger and Tensai getting the win here.

Match Rating: D+

 

Pre-Show: Xavier Woods versus Leo Kruger

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Xavier Woods defeated Leo Kruger in 17:38 by pinfall with a TKO. This match also needed to be a lot shorter given who was involved with the WWE Universe in attendance not knowing too much about either Superstar.

Match Rating: E

 

 

 

This week’s edition of Monday Night RAW kicks off with the former WWE Champion CM Punk making his way to the ring flanked by his advocate Paul Heyman. Punk and Heyman receive a tirade of boos and jeers from the WWE Universe in attendance as Punk retrieves a microphone from the ringside area and immediately passes it to Paul Heyman. The loud-mouthed Heyman proclaims that, as he has said on many occasions, Randy Orton is unworthy of being called the WWE Champion. Heyman reminds the WWE Universe that earlier this year Orton was banned from Friday Night SmackDown by the SmackDown General Manager Booker T for being unable to control himself and getting into several physical confrontations, so it is unfathomable as to why Orton was ever awarded a shot at CM Punk’s WWE Championship from the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Heyman says that in just a few short weeks at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View all of the wrongs will become right again when CM Punk defeats Randy Orton to regain his WWE Championship. Heyman then introduces another of his clients; a man that Heyman says will continue to be a thorn in the side of Randy Orton until CM Punk regains the WWE Championship, Brock Lesnar. The “Beast” Brock Lesnar then joins Punk and Heyman in the ring and says that Randy Orton should have eyes in the back of his head tonight.

Rating: B

 

Non-Title: WWE Divas Champion AJ Lee versus Emma

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, AJ Lee defeated Emma in 6:10 by pinfall with a Shining Wizard. Tamina accompanied the Divas Champion AJ Lee to ringside for this match and offered vocal support throughout.

Match Rating: D-

 

Following her victory the Divas Champion AJ Lee is joined by Tamina in the ring and it looks as though they are going to attack Emma until Audrey Marie makes the save. AJ and Tamina then leave the ring and AJ takes a microphone and says that she will beat Kaitlyn again at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View to retain her Divas title.

Rating: E

 

Team Hell No versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

In a match that had some good action and average heat, Team Hell No defeated Reigns & Regal in 10:06 when Daniel Bryan defeated William Regal by submission with a No! Lock. The Monday Night RAW commentary team of Michael Cole, Jim Ross and Jerry “The King” Lawler note that both Kane and Daniel Bryan will be opponents in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match later this month.

Match Rating: C-

 

The WWE Champion Randy Orton comes to the ring to a tremendous reception from the WWE Universe in attendance but before he can say anything Brock Lesnar rushes to the ring and hits Orton with an F5.

Rating: A

 

Non-Title: WWE United States Champion Dean Ambrose versus Mason Ryan

In a match that had some good action but not much in the way of heat, Dean Ambrose defeated Mason Ryan in 7:19 by pinfall with a Headlock Driver. The Monday Night RAW commentary team note that Ambrose will also be competing in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

Match Rating: D+

 

We see a hype video for the Kings of Wrestling duo of Antonio Cesaro and Kassius Ohno which includes highlights of their victory over the Rock and Mick Foley at Wrestlemania and their WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match qualifying win two weeks ago.

Rating: D-

 

Following the video hyping the Kings of Wrestling duo of Antonio Cesaro and Kassius Ohno we cut backstage to find Zeb Colter looking into the camera. Colter says that Cesaro will beat Randy Orton in tonight’s non-title main event.

Rating: D+

 

Batista versus Erick Rowan

In a match that had an average crowd reaction and some decent in-ring action, Batista defeated Erick Rowan in 7:26 by pinfall with a Batista Bomb. Renee Young once again accompanied Batista to the ring.

Match Rating: D+

 

Following his victory Batista celebrates until the other member of the Wyatt Family Luke Harper comes to the ring and it looks as though Harper and Rowan are going to attack Batista until Chris Jericho and RVD come to the entrance-way and the Wyatt Family chase after Jericho and RVD.

Rating: C-

 

Batista continues to celebrate in front of the WWE Universe until the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero comes to the entrance-way and tells Batista to focus on the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match not whores like Renee Young.

Rating: D

 

Santino Marella versus Kassius Ohno

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Kassius Ohno defeated Santino Marella in 7:17 by submission with a Hangman's Clutch. The Monday Night RAW commentary team note that Kassius Ohno will also be taking part in the WWE Championship Money in the Bank ladder match.

Match Rating: D

 

Following a commercial break we cut backstage to find Randy Orton in the locker-room in pain following the attack from Brock Lesnar earlier tonight when Kassius Ohno rushes into the room and throws Orton head first into a locker.

Rating: C

 

Non-Title: WWE Champion Randy Orton versus Antonio Cesaro

In a bout that featured great action and a good crowd, Randy Orton defeated Antonio Cesaro in 14:55 by pinfall with an RKO. Randy Orton was really off his game tonight following the assaults earlier but was still able to get the win.

Match Rating: B

 

Post-Show: Zack Ryder versus Derrick Bateman

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Zack Ryder defeated Derrick Bateman in 12:43 by submission. The Monday Night RAW commentary team remained at ringside to watch this match.

<strong>WWE NXT (Live from the Kingsport Civic Auditorium (TN), 1,000 in Attendance)</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Becky Lynch versus Sasha Banks</strong></p><p>

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Sasha Banks defeated Becky Lynch in 7:35 by pinfall with a DDT. This week’s edition of NXT kicks off with the NXT Commissioner and WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes to tonight’s show. Dusty Rhodes is of course the sole announcer on NXT following the former commentators William Regal and Byron Saxton being called up to compete in front of the WWE Universe on the main WWE roster earlier this year. The “Boss” Sasha Banks then makes her way to the ring to a mixed reaction from the NXT Universe inside the NXT Arena, followed by the introduction of her opponent for this evening’s opening Divas contest, Becky Lynch. The newcomer Becky Lynch receives a similar mixed reaction from the NXT Universe in attendance and then the pair get to work in the ring looking to do all they can to impress not only Dusty Rhodes but also the higher ups in WWE management who regularly watch NXT looking for the next breakout star such as the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero or the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T. Both of these Divas are well aware that they are competing in a highly competitive Divas division on NXT and both do all they can in an attempt to gain the all-important victory tonight. Dusty Rhodes mentioned over a month ago now that there will be the introduction of an NXT Women’s Championship at some point in the future and both of these Divas would love to be considered for a spot in the match to decide the first ever NXT Women’s Champion, whenever that bout may take place. Ultimately, both of these Divas would love to be on the main WWE roster competing for the Divas Championship, and all eyes in the Divas division of both WWE as well as NXT at the moment are firmly looking towards the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month when AJ Lee will once again put her Divas Championship on the line against Kaitlyn. Becky Lynch is competing in her first ever match on NXT tonight and looks to be nervous during some points of the match against the slightly more experienced Sasha Banks. Despite receiving a mixed reaction from the NXT Universe at the beginning of the match the fans soon got behind Becky Lynch as she competed with the attitude of an Old School Face. Sasha Banks, competing on NXT for several months now, proved just what a legitimate athlete she is during this match and to be frank dominated the majority of the contest. This is the first time that we have seen Sasha Banks in action on NXT since late May when she defeated Hailey Hatred following a loss to Kelly Kelly two weeks prior to that. Sasha continues her winning ways tonight gaining the victory in our opening contest.</p><p>

<strong>Match Rating: E-</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Non-Title: NXT Champion Justin Gabriel versus Aiden English</strong></p><p>

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Justin Gabriel defeated Aiden English in 7:38 by pinfall with a 450 Splash. Following our first commercial break of the evening the NXT Commissioner and WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes welcomes the television audience back to tonight’s episode of NXT and introduces the next match, which features the NXT Champion Justin Gabriel in non-title action. Justin Gabriel then makes his way to the ring to a tremendous reception from the NXT Universe in attendance inside the NXT Arena, followed by Aiden English who the fans are far more disapproving of. Justin Gabriel clearly has the experience edge in this one having competed for several years in front of the WWE Universe on both Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown. As a former WWE Tag Team Champion, Justin Gabriel is hoping to use his run as NXT Champion to regain the attentions of both the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero as well as the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T. Having always been known as a Thrill Seeker, Justin Gabriel continued to implement several high risk maneuvers into his offence tonight against Aiden English. The arrogant Aiden English clearly sees himself as somewhat of a movie star and he made the strange decision to bow after some of his offensive moves during the match. We saw Aiden English make his debut just last week on NXT in tag team action when he teamed with Viktor to defeat the team of Enzo Amore and Colin Cassady. Aiden English could not continue his winning streak tonight though as the NXT Champion Justin Gabriel gets the win. </p><p>

<strong>Match Rating: D</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bo Dallas versus Percy Watson</strong></p><p>

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Percy Watson defeated Bo Dallas in 17:38 by pinfall with a Crossbody. Following our final commercial break of the evening the NXT Commissioner and WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes welcomes the television audience back to NXT for our main event of the evening. Bo Dallas then makes his way to the ring to a decent response from the NXT Universe inside the NXT Arena followed by Percy Watson, to receives a similar reaction. This is a back and forth contest between two competitors who would do anything to get that illustrious call up to the promised land and compete in front of the WWE Universe on Monday Night RAW or Friday Night SmackDown, and with both men knowing that both the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero as well as the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T are likely watching, they do all they can to impress. Bo Dallas continued to show his aggressive side throughout this match and acted like an arrogant heel which turned the fans against him, so the NXT Universe were delighted when Percy Watson picked up the win here.</p><p>

The following contests are confirmed to take place on tonight’s edition of WWE Superstars:

 

Tyson Kidd versus David Otunga

The main event of tonight’s edition of WWE Superstars will see he last ever graduate of the famed Hart Family dungeon, Tyson Kidd, in action as he will take on the only Harvard Law School graduate in the WWE, David Otunga. The WWE Universe in attendance tonight should be firmly behind Tyson Kidd in this one as both Superstars look to pick up the all-important victory to gain the attentions of higher up members of WWE management such as the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero or the Friday Night SmackDown General Manager Booker T.

 

Trent Barreta and Yoshi Tatsu versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

Also tonight on WWE Superstars we will witness tag team action as the high-flying duo of Trent Barreta and Yoshi Tatsu will take on the former WWE Tag Team Champions Roman Reigns and William Regal. The WWE Universe in attendance tonight will likely be in support of Trent and Yoshi in this match as both teams look to potentially impress both the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero and the Friday Night SmackDown general Manager Booker T.

 

Brie Bella versus Nicole Matthews

Finally, Divas action tonight on WWE Superstars will see the beautiful Brie Bella in action against Nicole Matthews. The WWE Universe will likely be behind Brie Bella in this one as both Divas look to possibly earn a future opportunity at the Divas Championship.

 

 

 

 

Quick Picks:

Tyson Kidd versus David Otunga

Trent Barreta and Yoshi Tatsu versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

Brie Bella versus Nicole Matthews

WWE Superstars (Live from Thunder Valley Casino (CA), 1,500 in Attendance)

 

Pre-Show: Emma versus Kharma

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Emma defeated Kharma in 18:02 by pinfall with a Roaring Elbow. Emma was exhausted by the end of this Divas contest that went the distance and despite her being much larger Kharma has a clear edge in this match in terms of stamina and physical conditioning, likely due to her experience as she has competed for many more years than Emma. Despite her being very tired by the end of this match, Emma is still able to pick up the all-important victory here.

Match Rating: E-

 

(Michael Hayes thinks that Emma needs to be booked a little smarter and that she needs shorter matches as she was totally exposed by the length of this one.)

 

Pre-Show: Alexander Rusev and Marcus Owens versus Hunico and Camacho

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Rusev & Owens defeated Hunico & Camacho in 17:37 when Alexander Rusev defeated Camacho by pinfall with a Big Splash. Cameron accompanied the team of Alexander Rusev and Marcus Owens to ringside for this match and the former Funkadaktyll Cameron offered vocal support as well as cheerleading throughout the match which led to Rusev and Owens picking up the win.

Match Rating: F

 

Pre-Show: Uncle Elgin versus CJ Parker

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, CJ Parker defeated Uncle Elgin in 18:01 by pinfall with The Taste. Uncle Elgin was visibly tiring towards the end of this match which led to CJ Parker picking up the victory.

Match Rating: E-

 

Trent Barreta and Yoshi Tatsu versus Roman Reigns and William Regal

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but not much in the way of heat, Reigns & Regal defeated Trent & Yoshi in 7:49 when Roman Reigns defeated Trent Barreta by submission. The WWE Superstars commentary team of Josh Mathews, Joey Styles and Matt Striker note that both of these teams would love the opportunity to challenge for the WWE Tag Team Championships at some point in the near future.

Match Rating: D

 

Following our first commercial break of the evening WWE Superstars airs the RAW Rebound which recaps events from this past week’s edition of Monday Night RAW. The show began with the former WWE Champion CM Punk making his way to the ring accompanied by his advocate Paul Heyman. The pair received a tirade of boos and jeers from the WWE Universe in attendance as Heyman took a microphone from the ringside area and said that Randy Orton does not deserve to be the WWE Champion after he was banned from Friday Night SmackDown earlier this year by the SmackDown General Manager Booker T after failing to stop himself from getting into physical confrontations with other Superstars. It is therefore unfathomable, said Heyman, that the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero awarded Orton with a shot at the WWE Championship held by CM Punk for so long and a complete fluke that Orton was able to win the title. Heyman said that all of those wrongs will be righted later this month at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View when CM Punk defeats Randy Orton to once again become the WWE Champion. Heyman then introduced another of his clients to the ring, and the “Beast” Brock Lesnar joined Heyman and Punk in the ring. Brock Lesnar took the microphone and said that Randy Orton had better have eyes in the back of his head. Later on in the evening the WWE Champion Randy Orton made his way to the ring to presumably talk about CM Punk as well as his non-title main event match against Antonio Cesaro later in the evening. Brock Lesnar would then rush to the ring and hit Orton with an F5. Later on in the evening we saw a hype video for the Kings of Wrestling, Antonio Cesaro and Kassius Ohno, and following the video Zeb Colter, their manager, said backstage that Antonio Cesaro would beat Orton in the evening’s main event. We saw Randy Orton backstage preparing for his main event match with Antonio Cesaro when Kassius Ohno rushed into the room and threw Orton into the locker. However, despite suffering two attacks on RAW, Orton was still able to defeat Antonio Cesaro in the evening’s main event.

Rating: A

 

Brie Bella versus Nicole Matthews

In an extremely short match, Brie Bella defeated Nicole Matthews in 4:05 by pinfall with a Bella Buster. The WWE Superstars commentary team noted that both of these Divas would love the opportunity to challenge for the WWE Divas Championship at some point in the future.

Match Rating: E+

 

Following another commercial break we see highlights from last week’s episode of Friday Night SmackDown as the show began with the World Heavyweight Champion John Cena again telling the WWE Universe how happy he is to be under the control of the SmackDown General Manager Booker T following months of what he called mistreatment and politics at the hands of the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero. Dolph Ziggler then came to the entrance-way and told Cena that at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month he will defeat Cena to become the new World Heavyweight Champion. In other events, the Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston, with his manager Teddy Long at ringside, defeated Sheamus in a non-title match and in the evening’s non-title main event John Cena defeated Curtis Axel. A tweet is then shown from the SmackDown General Manager Booker T announcing that tomorrow night’s tag team main event will see John Cena team with Big E Langston to take on the team of Dolph Ziggler and Damien Sandow.

Rating: C+

 

Tyson Kidd versus David Otunga

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Tyson Kidd defeated David Otunga in 13:05 by pinfall with a Code Blue. David Otunga was really off his game tonight which allowed Kidd to get the win.

Match Rating: D

 

Post-Show: Braden Walker versus Jinder Mahal

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Jinder Mahal defeated Braden Walker in 12:45 by pinfall with a Karachi Valley Driver. Braden Walker was really off his game tonight which led to Mahal picking up the win.

Match Rating: E-

 

Post-Show: Fatsuhiko Nakajima versus Byron Saxton

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Byron Saxton defeated Fatsuhiko Nakajima in 13:09 by pinfall. The Godfather accompanied Nakajima to ringside for this match but was not able to inspire his client to victory tonight.

Match Rating: E

 

 

Final Show Rating: C

Pre-Show: Alicia Fox versus Nicole Matthews

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Alicia Fox defeated Nicole Matthews in 18:18 by pinfall with a Watch Yo Face. Hornswoggle accompanied the former Divas Champion Alicia Fox to ringside for this match much to the delight of the younger members of the WWE Universe in attendance. Hornswoggle offered vocal support and encouragement towards Alicia Fox throughout this Divas match that went the distance but Hornswoggle may have proved useful as Alicia picked up the all-important victory.

Match Rating: E-

 

(Sgt. Slaughter feels that the fans have become a little bored with Alicia Fox and that perhaps a turn or a gimmick change would freshen her up and give her a boost.)

 

Pre-Show: Trent Barreta and Yoshi Tatsu versus Prime Time Players

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, Prime Time Players defeated Trent & Yoshi in 17:45 when Titus O'Neil defeated Yoshi Tatsu by pinfall with a Clash of the Titus.

Match Rating: E+

 

Pre-Show: Goldust versus Wade Barrett

In a match that had some good action and average heat, Wade Barrett defeated Goldust in 18:02 by pinfall with The Wasteland. Goldust was really off his game tonight which led to Wade Barrett picking up the victory.

Match Rating: C

 

 

Friday Night SmackDown kicks off with the World Heavyweight Champion John Cena making his way to the ring to a tremendous reception from the WWE Universe in attendance. Once in the ring Cena retrieves a microphone from the ringside area and proclaims that he is a happy man today, being the World Heavyweight Champion under the ruling of SmackDown General Manager Booker T, a good friend of his. Cena says that he hates to repeat himself, but working under the Monday Night RAW Managing Supervisor Vickie Guerrero earlier this year was not fun for him. Cena says that he’s looking forward to teaming up with the WWE Intercontinental Champion Big E Langston in tonight’s tag team main event to take on the team of Dolph Ziggler and Damien Sandow and that he’s even more looking forward to once again defeating Dolph Ziggler at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View later this month to retain his World Heavyweight Championship. Dolph Ziggler then comes to the entrance-way with a microphone of his own and tells Cena that he better be enjoying himself now, and to continue to make all of the jokes in the world and look past Ziggler because it will make it even more enjoyable for Ziggler when he beats Cena at Money in the Bank, takes the World Heavyweight Championship back where it belongs and knocks Cena off his perch.

Rating: B

 

Kaitlyn versus Aksana

In an awful match that was completely devoid of heat, Kaitlyn defeated Aksana in 7:27 by pinfall with a Spear. Some portions of the crowd were very vocal in their hatred of Aksana so they were pleased to see Kaitlyn get the win.

Match Rating: E

 

Following her victory Kaitlyn celebrates in front of the WWE Universe until Tamina and Layla come to the entrance-way, with Tamina holding a microphone. Tamina says that AJ Lee will beat Kaitlyn at the Money in the Bank Pay-Per-View to once again retain her Divas Championship and prove that Divas like AJ, Tamina and Layla are superior to losers like Kaitlyn and Alicia Fox.

Rating: D-

 

Non-Title: WWE Tag Team Champions The Uso’s versus Hunico and Camacho

In a bout that had solid in-ring action but non-existent crowd heat, The Uso's defeated Hunico & Camacho in 7:12 when Jey Uso defeated Hunico by pinfall with an Alley-Us. Alicia Fox accompanied the WWE Tag Team Champions Jimmy and Jey Uso to ringside for this tag team match and offered vocal support towards the beginning of the match but in truth didn’t look too interested. Despite this, the Uso’s were still able to pick up the win.

Match Rating: D-

The following contests are confirmed to take place on tonight’s edition of WWE NXT:

 

 

 

NXT Championship: Justin Gabriel © versus Viktor

The main event of tonight’s edition of NXT will see the NXT Champion Justin Gabriel put his NXT Championship on the line against Viktor in a match that should see the NXT Universe in attendance inside what is sure to be a sold out NXT Arena fully in support of the NXT Champion Justin Gabriel. An all-important victory for Viktor tonight, however, would not only be the biggest win of his career but also a huge upset considering that Justin Gabriel has years of experience competing in front of the WWE Universe on both Monday Night RAW and Friday Night SmackDown.

 

Percy Watson versus Bo Dallas

Also tonight on NXT the charismatic and highly athletic Percy Watson will be in action as he will take on the Second Generation competitor Bo Dallas. Both of these men will be hoping to get a win here to impress the NXT Commissioner, WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes, as well as the NXT Universe in attendance inside what is likely to be a sold out NXT Arena. Both men will also be hoping that WWE management will be watching tonight as well.

 

Konnor versus Curt Hawkins

The intense Konnor will be in competition on tonight’s edition of NXT as he will take on the former WWE Tag Team Champion Curt Hawkins. Both of these men will also be hoping to impress the NXT Commissioner, WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes in the hopes of being given a future Championship opportunity.

 

Alexa Bliss versus Rain

Finally, Divas action tonight on NXT will see Alexa Bliss take on Rain. A few weeks ago on NXT Rain had some controversial comments to make backstage to the NXT Commissioner, WWE Hall of Famer the “American Dream” Dusty Rhodes.

 

 

 

 

Quick Picks:

NXT Championship: Justin Gabriel © versus Viktor

Percy Watson versus Bo Dallas

Konnor versus Curt Hawkins

Alexa Bliss versus Rain

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Predictions are welcomed, there will be a prediction contest held every month.)
