June 15th 2012


[Smackdown comes on the air and Know Your Enemy begins to blare through the speakers. The cameras sweep through the crowd, showing the signs supporting various supporters. The commentators welcome us to the show before the camera snaps round to the stage as Abraham Washington’s Clientele makes his way out. There are audible cheers from the crowd as they make their way down the ramp and get in the ring, with Abraham Washington grabbing a mic.]

Abraham Washington: “Last week my client Jack Swagger Main Evented this show where he defeated one of the youngest top stars in Cody Rhodes. This week Jack Swagger will once again compete in the Main Event where he teams with Randy Orton to take on the WWE Champion Chris Jericho and newly returned superstar Christian.”

[There is a loud pop from the crowd as tonight’s Main Event is announced.]

Abraham Washington: “I haven’t forgotten about my other clients though as they will both team up tonight to take on #1 Contenders, Air Boom!”

[There is a mixed reaction from the crowd as Air Boom are mentioned.]

Abraham Washington: “The success of my clientele is already beginning to show and that success will only continue to grow. Jack Swagger has already solidified himself as one of the best stars on the Smackdown roster and soon enough Justin Gabriel and Tyson Kidd will begin to show their dominance as well. However, if there are men or women in the back who need a little help in getting their career of the ground then just give me a call.”

[Washington hands the mic out to someone on the outside before instructing the men to leave the ring. They do so and Washington heads out after them, leading them up the ramp.]

[We open up in the General Manager’s office and John Laurinaitis sits on the couch before David Otunga walks in, evidently pissed off. He tells John that he heard Sin Cara has just arrived and he wants him one on one tonight after what he did last week. John agrees and tells David to go and get ready.]

[Back in the ring and Booker T makes his way out to loud cheers from the crowd. He gets in the ring as Kane makes his way out with the United States Championship around his waist. He slowly makes his way down the ramp before getting in the ring.]

Booker T v Kane

[Kane and Booker exchange blows as soon as the referee rings the bell and Kane decks Booker with a hard right hand. Booker gets back up and manages to avoid a second big attempt before running off the ropes and hitting a clothesline to the chest of Kane. Booker runs off the ropes and goes for another clothesline but Kane sees it coming and catches Booker on the jaw with a right hand. Kane fixes his mask before dragging Booker up to his feet and throwing him into the corner. Kane charges at Booker but Booker moves out of the way and Kane hits the turnbuckles before turning into a chop from Booker. Booker hits another chop to the big man’s chest before climbing to the second rope and wailing down on Kane’s head with punch after punch. Kane finally manages to block a punch from Booker and throws him nearly halfway across the ring. Booker gets back up as soon as he can but he runs straight into a big boot from Kane. Kane waits for Booker to get back up before kicking him in the midsection and hitting him with a DDT. Kane gets back to his feet as Booker begins to sit up and Kane runs off the ropes before hitting a low dropkick to the face of Booker. Kane gets back up and grabs Booker by the throat, pulling him to his feet. Kane lifts him up for the Chokeslam but Booker drops down behind him, kicking him in the back of the leg. Kane slumps over and Booker runs off the ropes, going for the Scissors Kick but Kane avoids it before standing back up straight and nailing him with a Chokeslam. Kane drops down to the mat and covers Booker for the three count!]

Spoiler:

[Kane gets back to his feet as he is announced the winner and grabs his United States Championship. He raises it into the air as he stands over Booker and the scene fades.]

[We open up in the interview area and Eden Stiles stands with Zack Ryder by his side. Stiles ask Ryder about his match this Sunday and how if he feels he has an advantage given that Cody Rhodes failed to blindside him last week. Ryder says that he knew he had an advantage long before that. Ryder says that this Sunday he will defeated Cody Rhodes and he will prove to him and the rest of the world that he is much better than Cody.]

[Air Boom begin making their way out when we come back to the ring and get in the ring before Abraham Washington’s Clientele walk out. Jack Swagger isn’t with them as he is busy preparing for his match later on but Gabriel, Kidd and Washington are all making their way down. Kidd and Gabriel get in the ring while Washington walks around the side and stands in their corner.]

Air Boom v Justin Gabriel & Tyson Kidd w/ Abraham Washington

[Kofi and Gabriel start things off in the middle with a quick exchange of different holds. Kofi wraps his arms around Gabriel’s waist and slips behind him before Gabriel turns it around with a headlock. Kofi slips out and both men take a step back from one another, laughing at how neither can gain the advantage. Kofi steps back into the corner and tags in Bourne but Gabriel remains in the ring. Gabriel puts his hand in the air to lock up with Bourne but Bourne decides against it and sends Gabriel reeling with a dropkick. Gabriel gets back to his feet but Bourne sends him back down with a kick to the head before making the cover. Gabriel is quick to kick out and Bourne gets back to his feet, waiting for Gabriel to get back up as well. Gabriel gets up and Bourne swings for a kick but Gabriel dugs underneath before springing over and tagging in Kidd. Bourne runs at Kidd but Kidd catches him with a big kick to the head before using the ropes to propel himself over and taking down Bourne with a dropkick. Kidd gets back up and runs off the ropes before taking down Bourne with a spinning elbow to the jaw. Bourne hits the ground and Kidd makes the cover for a two count. Kidd gets back up and stalks Bourne, waiting for him to get up. Bourne does so and Kidd snatches him before lifting him up for a suplex. Bourne manages to turn it around and hits Kidd with a knee to the head before dropping down to his feet and using the momentum to throw Kidd into Gabriel. Gabriel is knocked off the apron and Kidd is left hanging out of the ring off the middle rope. Bourne pulls Kidd back and makes the cover but Kidd manages to kick out at two. Bourne gets up and kicks away at Kidd but Gabriel runs in the ring to try and aid his partner but the referee rushes to get him back out. The referee is distracted so Bourne leans out of the ring and reaches under the ring, grabbing something. The camera zooms up and shows brass knuckles in the hand of Bourne. Bourne slips them on and waits for Kidd to get up before clocking him over the jaw with them. Bourne tosses them to the outside and climbs to the top rope as the referee turns his attention back to the ring. Bourne dives down and nails Air Bourne to get the pinfall victory.]

Spoiler:

[Bourne gets back to his feet as Kofi rushes in the ring to celebrate with him. They raise each other’s arms in the air before climbing to opposite ropes and shouting out to the crowd. The crowd are heavily booing Bourne but Kofi doesn’t understand why – he wasn’t watching when Bourne hit Kidd with the brass knucks. Bourne shakes his head at the crowd before jumping down and joining Kofi at the ropes.]


~


[We open up backstage with Cody Rhodes standing in front of a black backdrop. Cody says that he heard what Zack had to say earlier and all he can do in return is laugh. Cody says that this Sunday he is going to prove how beneath him Zack Ryder is and he will walk out of No Way Out the victor. Cody says that Zack has nothing on him and everyone will come to realise this when he beats him fair and square in two nights.]


~


[Chris Jericho and John Laurinaitis stand in the hallway, in deep discussion about something but the camera is unable to get close enough to hear what they are saying. Whatever they are saying it seems to make Jericho very happy and a huge grin spreads across his face before he shakes hands with Laurinaitis. Laurinaitis walks off and Jericho looks after him, still grinning.]

[Maxine and Natalya are in the Divas locker room, talking about how much of an idiot Kharma is. They continue to talk down about her before going to leave the locker room, only to be met by Kharma herself. The two divas look terrified and instantly back up as Kharma walks in, not taking her eyes off of them. Maxine and Natalya run out of the other locker room door and Natalya just laughs.]


~


[Back in the ring and Maxine and Natalya run out for this match. They rush down to the ring and get in, looking around to make sure Kharma isn’t coming from anywhere. Their faces drop as Kharma’s music hits and she walks out onto the stage. Lilian Garcia announces that this is a handicap match and Kharma gets down in the ring, laughing at her opponents.]

Maxine & Natalya v Kharma

[Maxine is starting things off against Kharma and she charges at the big diva as soon as the bell rings, only to be taken down with a clothesline. Natalya runs in the ring to aid her partner but she too runs into a clothesline. Kharma gets Maxine to her feet and tosses her into the corner before getting Natalya to her feet and throwing her into Maxine. Natalya stumbles back and Kharma grabs her from behind before hitting a German suplex. Kharma gets back up and charges at Maxine in the corner, squashing her against the turnbuckles. Kharma grabs Maxine by the head and takes her to the centre of the ring before hitting her with Bad Kharma. Kharma gets back to her feet and catches Natalya as she charges at her. Kharma grabs her by the throat and hoists her into the air before hitting her with the Chokeslam onto Maxine. Both divas are now laying down and out on top of each other and Kharma begins climbing to the top rope. She gets to the top rope and looks down at the two divas before flying down and hitting the Kharma Splash. Kharma remains on top of both divas for the 1..2..3!]

Spoiler:

[Kharma gets back to her feet and is announced the winner. She turns to leave the ring but stops as Beth Phoenix walks out onto the stage with the Divas Championship over her shoulder. The two engage in an intense stare down before Beth gives Kharma a sly grin and walks off backstage.]





[Back live and David Otunga v Sin Cara is already underway. Otunga goes for a big clothesline on the newly returned Cara but Cara ducks underneath before springing off the ropes and hitting him with an elbow to the head. Cara kips back to his feet and waits for Otunga to get up before running off the ropes and hitting a hurricanrana on Otunga. Cara gets back to his feet and charges at a risen Otunga but Otunga sees it coming and goes to hit The Verdict, only for Cara to reverse it into a roll up for the three count!]

Spoiler:

[Cara gets back to his feet and the crowd jump to their feet in cheers. Cara gets up and jumps to the second rope in celebration as Otunga gets to a seated position, looking shocked. Cara continues celebrating and Otunga gets to his feet before pulling Cara down. Otunga picks up Cara but Cara turns it around and throws Otunga to the outside. Cara gets back to his feet and the crowd are now cheering for him louder than before. Cara stands in the ring, staring out after Otunga as we cut backstage.]

Young says that next week he will return to action since retiring Goldust and he will once again be the victor, proving once again to be the better man.]

He joins Christian outside of the ring before the two get in.]

Randy Orton & Jack Swagger w/ Abraham Washington v Christian & Chris Jericho

[Swagger and Christian start things off by locking up in the ring. Swagger gains control and shoves Christian back before taking him down with a big shoulder block. Swagger waits for Christian to get back up before throwing him off the ropes and catching him with a knee to the midsection which sends him toppling over onto his back. Swagger drops down and makes the cover but only gets a one count. Swagger gets back up and drags Christian up with him. Swagger grabs Christian, ready for a DDT, but Christian manages to break free. Christian slaps Swagger across the face before turning and tagging in Jericho. Jericho looks at Christian as if to ask why he did that but he keeps his eyes off of Swagger for too long and Swagger grabs him, throwing him over the top rope and into the ring. Jericho stumbles back to his feet and Swagger kicks him in the midsection before lifting him up and hitting the suplex. Swagger goes to continue but Orton shouts for Swagger to tag him in. The fans cheer as Swagger asks them if they want to see Orton come in so he does so. However, Jericho notices that Orton is about to come in so scrambles over to his corner and tags in Christian. Both Christian and Orton get in the ring and charge at each other, beginning to unload on each other with rights and lefts.

Orton begins stalking Christian for the RKO and waits for Christian to get up before jumping up for the RKO. Christian manages to catch it and shoves Orton away, giving Swagger the chance to tag himself in. Christian doesn’t see this however and he waits for Orton to turn back around before nailing him with the Spear. Christian goes to make the cover but the referee informs him that he can’t.

Christian flails his arms around, looking for an escape but is left with no choice but to tap out.]

Spoiler:

[Swagger releases his hold on Christian and gets to his feet as he and Orton are announced the winners. Orton gets in the ring, holding his abdomen in pain after the Spear from Christian, and joins Swagger in having their arms raised in victory. Swagger leaves the ring and joins Washington before the two head up the ramp. Orton goes to leave the ring as well but when he turns around he is surprised by a Codebreaker from Jericho. Jericho rises back to his feet and picks up his WWE Championship before standing over Orton and raising the Championship in the air as we go to credits.]

June 17th 2012

[We come on the air for No Way Out with Unstoppable blaring through the speakers. Pyro explodes all along the stage and the camera cuts to the crowd to show off all of their signs for tonight. There are a lot of Brock Lesnar signs but there are almost as much Sheamus signs. The camera sweeps over the RAW commentary booth showing us Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler before showing us Matt Striker and Josh Mathews on the Smackdown commentary booth. The camera cuts back to the ring and we are ready to get the show underway.]

Lilian Garcia: “The following match is set for one fall!”

Woo Woo Woo; You Know It!

Lilian Garcia: “Introducing first from Long Island, New York and weighing 214lb, “Long Island Iced Z” Zack Ryder!”

[Zack Ryder runs out onto the stage to big cheers from the crowd. He does a few fist pumps before walking down the ramp, slapping hands with the fans on his way. He walks up the steps and gets in the ring before climbing to the second rope. He makes an L with one hand and an I with another before jumping down and getting ready for his opponent.]

Let Me Go, Blood Drips From Your Camera!

Lilian Garcia: “Introducing his opponent from Marietta, Georgia and weighing 215lb, Cody Rhodes!”

[The cheers which Zack Ryder received are drowned out by the boos which begin to sound the moment Cody Rhodes walks out onto the stage wearing his large zipped up robe type thing. He slowly makes his way down the ramp, glaring at Zack the entire time. He slowly walks up the steps and unzips his coat, throwing it off, before getting in the ring and standing opposite Zack.]

Zack Ryder v Cody Rhodes

[Cody charges at Zack as soon as the bell rings and kicks Zack hard in the gut. Cody hits Zack with a clubbing blow over his back. Cody forces Zack down to the mat and begins to stomp away at him. Cody takes a step back as the referee allows Zack to get to his feet. Cody charges at Zack once again but Zack sees him coming this time and grabs Cody’s arm as he goes throw a punch. Zack responds with a punch of his own and backs Cody up a bit before running off the ropes and hitting him with a clothesline. Zack stalks Cody for a few moments and waits for him to get up before grabbing him and lifting him up for a suplex. Cody manages to shift his weight a little and causes Ryder to drop him back down to his feet. Cody takes advantage and kicks Zack in the knee before running off the ropes and kicking Zack hard in the face. Cody gets Zack back to his feet and he backs him into the corner before slapping him across the face. Cody proceeds to lift Zack up to the top rope but as he begins climbing, Zack kicks him hard in the face which causes Cody to fall to the mat. Zack repositions himself on the top rope and waits for Cody to get up before diving down and hitting a big crossbody. Zack hooks the leg and Cody is quick to kick out before both men get back to their feet. Zack swings a right hand at Cody but Cody ducks underneath before snatching Zack’s head and dragging him down, nailing his head off of his knee. Cody makes the cover but Zack manages to kick out at two and a half and Cody gets up frustrated. Cody kicks Zack hard in the head, making sure he won’t be getting up, before stepping back and leaning on the ropes. Cody shakes his head before turning as Zack begins to drag himself up in the corner. Zack is obviously dazed from the multiple shots he has suffered to the head but he manages to avoid an attack from Cody, moving out of the way as he crashes into the turnbuckles. Cody slumps down to a seated position in the corner and Zack runs over to the corner at the side of the one Cody is at. Zack does three fist pumps to a “Woo! Woo! Woo!” chant from the crowd before charging at Cody and hitting the Broski Boot. There are loud cheers as Zack backs into the centre of the ring and makes an L with one hand and an I with the other. He jumps up and down on the spot as Cody begins rising and the fans are now firmly behind Zack. Cody finally gets to a vertical base and turns as Zack jumps up for the Rough Ryder. Cody manages to throw Zack over his head and Zack comes crashing down on the top turnbuckle. Zack stumbles back and Cody uses the ropes to propel himself into Zack with the Beautiful Disaster Kick. Cody makes the cover and the referee counts the 1..2.. AND ZACK MANAGES TO KICK OUT! Cody looks to be in utter shock as the referee confirms Zack kicked out before the three count. Cody gets to his feet and gets right in the referee’s face, screaming that it was a three count. Cody gets the referee backed right into the corner and the referee has his arms up to defend himself. Cody shakes his head and turns to go after Zack but Zack meets him with the Rough Ryder out of nowhere. Zack manages to roll himself on top of Cody and hooks the leg as the referee makes the count 1..2..KICKOUT! Zack rolls off of Cody but both men remain on the ground. The fans chant Zack’s name and try to encourage him to get up but it is Cody who is first to stir. Zack is soon to answer the fan’s chants and begins rising as well. Both men get up at the same time and Cody hits Zack with a hard right hand which causes him to wobble on his feet. Zack responds with a right hand of his own which causes Cody to wobble. Zack hits another right hand and this one sends Cody off balance and down to the mat. Cody is quick to respond however and gets back to his feet only to be met by a dropkick from Zack. Zack gets back to his feet and gets Cody up but Cody shoves Zack away and he almost collides with the referee. However, the referee manages to avoid it but turns his back in doing so. Cody sees this as an opportunity and hits a low blow on Zack before grabbing him and nailing the Cross Rhodes. Rhodes drags Zack into the centre of the ring and hooks the leg for the 1..2..3!]

Spoiler:

[Cody rolls off of Zack, obviously exhausted. He is announced the winner and he uses the ropes to drag himself to his feet before having his arm raised in victory. He backs up against the ropes and holds his head in pain as the highlights of the match are shown. When we come back to the ring, Cody is on the second rope and is still holding his head but his other arm is raised in victory. He jumps down and looks around at the booing crowd as the scene fades.]

Justin Roberts: “The following Tag Team Match is set for one fall and it is for the WWE Tag Team Championships!”

Boom!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing first, the challengers, at a combined weight of 377lb, Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne, Air Boom!”

[There are a mixture of both cheers and boos as Air Boom walk out onto the stage. Both have massive grins on their faces, especially Bourne. The two make their way down the ramp with Kofi slapping hands with the fans on his way. Kofi slides in under the bottom rope while Bourne walks up the steps before entering the ring. The two stand in the corner, deep in conversation.]

We’re In The Middle Of It!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing their opponents, at a combined weight of 469lb, they are the current WWE Tag Team Champions, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks, the Rekking Crew!”

[The boos become overwhelming as the Rekking Crew walk out onto the stage with the WWE Tag Team Championships wrapped around their waists. They slowly walk down the ramp, giving off smug looks to the crowd on their way. They both get in the ring and pose to the crowd before handing over their Championships and getting ready for their match.]

Air Boom v The Rekking Crew © ~ WWE Tag Team Championships

[Kofi and Reks both agree to start things off with their respective teams and slowly circle each other around the ring. They finally collide in the centre and lock up with Reks managing to gain control and throw Kofi over his head and into the corner. Kofi scrambles back to his feet and lunges at Reks but Reks catches him and hits him with the belly to belly suplex. Reks makes the cover but Kofi is quick to kick out so Reks gets back to his feet. He drags Kofi over to the corner by the hair and gets the tag to Hawkins. Hawkins climbs to the top rope and dives down, driving his boot into the arm of Kofi which Reks had been holding. Reks steps out onto the apron while Hawkins stomps away on Kofi. Hawkins drags Kofi up but Kofi surprises him with a right hand before running off the ropes and nailing Hawkins with a dropkick. Kofi manages to get up and tag in Bourne, who propels over the top rope and catches a running Hawkins with a crossbody. Bourne hooks Hawkins’ leg but only garners a two count. Bourne gets up and runs over to knock Reks off the apron but Reks drops down to the mat before Bourne can hit him. Bourne turns around and Hawkins surprises him with a dropkick. Hawkins gets back up and drags Bourne to the centre of the ring before making the cover for a two count. Hawkins gets up to his knees and begins to pound on Bourne’s head with right hand after right hand. Hawkins finally lets up and gets back to his feet, waiting for Bourne to get up as well. Bourne does so and Hawkins hits him with an elbow to the jaw before kicking him in the midsection and hitting a suplex. Hawkins rolls over and makes the cover, getting yet another two count. Hawkins gets to his feet and drags Bourne up with him before shoving him into the corner. Hawkins slaps him across the face before placing Bourne on the top rope. Hawkins climbs to the second rope and punches Bourne in the face before getting him standing on the top rope. Hawkins does the same but Bourne manages to use Hawkins’ own weight to send him crashing down to the mat. Bourne regains his senses and stands upright, ready to go for Air Bourne. Kofi rushes in the ring and sends Reks off the apron but inadvertently sends himself out at the same time.]

The Truth Has Set Me Free!

[The fans jump to their feet in cheers as R-Truth walks out onto the stage. He grins down at Bourne who looks completely shocked to see him. Truth slowly walks down the ramp and Bourne jumps down onto the apron before hopping down onto the ground. He meets Truth at the bottom of the ramp and the two exchange words before Bourne slaps Truth across the face. Bourne turns around and slides back in the ring but keeps his eye on Truth as he gets back to his feet. Bourne turns and is met by a superkick from Hawkins. Hawkins climbs to the top rope and takes one last look at Bourne before diving down and hitting the Heat-Seeking Elbow. He hooks the leg of Bourne as Kofi and Reks are still on the outside and gets the 1..2..3!]

Spoiler:

Justin Roberts: “Here are your winners and STILL WWE Tag Team Champions, the Rekking Crew, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks!”

[Hawkins gets to his feet as he is announced the winner and is handed both WWE Tag Team Championships. Reks is soon to get in the ring alongside Hawkins and Hawkins gives him his Championship before the two celebrate in the ring with the belts. Hawkins climbs to the second rope and throws the belt over his shoulder before spreading his arms out and grinning slyly at the crowd. Reks climbs to the opposite second rope and raises his Championship in the air as both men get major boos from the crowd. The two jump down and leave the ring, heading backstage, while R-Truth gets in the ring. He looks down at Bourne with a grin on his face as Bourne holds his chest in pain. Truth takes a step back as Kofi gets in the ring, shouting at Truth that he is an idiot. Truth tells Kofi to wait a moment before walking around to the ropes and getting a mic. Truth walks back to where he was and Bourne is now sitting in the corner while Kofi is on his feet, right in front of Truth.]

R-Truth: “Kofi let me explain! Remember last month when I was attacked backstage and you found me unconscious? Well I have some video footage that Little Jimmy and I found that we think you better have a look at.”

[Truth steps back and points up to the titantron as a security tape begins to play. It starts off with Truth standing in the locker room talking to the air, sorry I mean Little Jimmy. The door slowly opens behind him but Truth doesn’t seem to notice and Evan Bourne walks in with a pipe in his hand. He stands there for a moment before Truth turns around and then he hits him over the head with the pipe. Truth falls to the ground and Bourne drops down to his knees before hitting Truth repeatedly over the head and body. Bourne eventually gives in when Truth is no longer moving and gets to his feet before running off out of the locker room. The video ends and we come back to the ring with Bourne standing by the side of Kofi, screaming his defence. The fans are booing like crazy and Truth stares at Kofi, as if looking for a response. Kofi however, is listening to Bourne’s defence but doesn’t seem to be buying it. Kofi shoves Bourne away and motions for Truth to come over. Truth begins walking towards him but Kofi shocks everyone by taking out Truth with Trouble In Paradise. Kofi gets back to his feet and picks up the mic as the fans boo him.]

Kofi Kingston: “You idiot, did you think I didn’t know it was Evan that attacked you? It was obvious but I chose that I didn’t care. You were holding me back Truth and I’m not going to let anyone hold me back anymore.”

[Kofi throws the mic down on Truth before stepping back laughing. The boos are growing louder as Bourne walks over with a smirk on his face. He goes to pat Kofi on the shoulder but Kofi shoves him back a little before nailing him with Trouble In Paradise. Kofi gets back to his feet and shakes his head at Bourne before leaving the ring to massive boos from the crowd. He walks up the ramp, not turning back once, leaving both Truth and Bourne down in the ring.]





Justin Roberts: “The following Triple Threat Match set for one fall will determine the #1 Contender! Please welcome at this time, Alberto Del Rio’s personal ring announcer, Ricardo Rodriguez!”

Ricardo Rodriguez: “Señoras y señores que se establecen en este momento el mundo el próximo campeón de peso pesado, el más grande luchador que jamás haya vivido, Alberto Del Rio!”

Realeza!

[The fans begin to boo as a honking sound begins to emanate from the side of the stage. The boos only increase as a very posh looking car slowly drives around before parking. Del Rio steps out with a towel around his neck and walks around before hopping onto the stage. He takes off the towel and spins it around a bit before throwing it down and spreading out his arms as golden sparks of pyro rain down behind him. He begins to make his way down the rest of the ramp before running up the steps and getting in the ring. He grins out to the crowd as he steps into the corner, awaiting his opponents.]

I Don’t Care What You Think Of Me!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing the next participant from Manchester, England and weighing 246lb, Wade Barrett!”

[Wade Barrett storms out onto the stage and the boos from the fans continue. He stops on the stage and looks around with a sly grin on his face before slowly continuing down the ramp. He walks up the steps and casually enters the ring before raising both arms in the air. He turns and faces Del Rio, standing opposite him as they both await the final man.]

Look In My Eyes, What Do You See? Cult Of Personality!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing next from Chicago, Illinois and weighing 218lb, CM Punk!”

[There is a loud ovation of cheers as the familiar music of CM Punk hits. The man himself runs out onto the stage to an onslaught of cheers. He drops down to one knee and rubs his hand along the ground before shouting out and getting back to his feet. He punches the air before turning around and spreading his arms out, walking backwards down the ramp. He turns around and runs up the steps before climbing to the second rope. He places one foot on the top rope and spreads out his arms while shouting out to the crowd. He jumps in the ring and takes off his top, throwing it out to the crowd. He stands in the corner and watches both Wade and Del Rio as they all await the bell.]

Alberto Del Rio v Wade Barrett v CM Punk

[Del Rio and Barrett both begin to close in on Punk, who is backed right up in the corner. Del Rio and Barrett finally pounce and begin to kick and punch away at Punk. They get Punk down to a seated position before repeatedly driving their boots into the face of Punk. Del Rio takes a few steps back and allows Barrett to drive his knee into the head of Punk before stepping back and Punk slumps to the mat. Barrett drags him out of the corner and goes to make the cover but Del Rio shoves him away and tells him not to do it. Barrett shakes his head but drops to his knees and continues to lay into Punk. Del Rio kicks away at the body of Punk while Barrett works on the head. Barrett gets back to his feet and leans in the corner, watching Del Rio work away on Punk. Del Rio gets to his feet and picks up Punk before shoving him towards Barrett. Barrett goes for a big boot but Punk ducks underneath before propelling off the ropes and hitting Barrett with a crossbody.

Kharma then turns her attention back to the ring and gets back in. Beth runs at Kharma but Kharma catches her by the throat and hoists her in the air before hitting the Chokeslam.

She hooks her arms before lifting Beth into the air and hitting Bad Kharma. Kharma rolls Beth onto her back and hooks the leg as the referee counts the 1..2..3!]

Here Comes The Pain!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing his opponent from Minneapolis, Minnesota and weighing 266lb, Brock Lesnar!”

[Brock Lesnar walks out onto the stage in his MMA gear to the usual mixed reaction from the crowd. He jumps up and down on the spot before pulling his arms back and screaming out to the crowd. He continues down the ramp, keeping his eyes on Sheamus the entire time. He jumps up onto the apron and looks in at his opponent before entering the ring. He stands opposite Sheamus as the Cell structure begins to lower. It hits the ground and the referee calls for the bell.]

Sheamus v Brock Lesnar ~ Hell In A Cell

[Sheamus and Lesnar go right at it as soon as the bell rings with rights and lefts getting thrown all over the place. Lesnar takes control after placing a right hand right on the dot and, for a split second, it looks like Sheamus has been knocked out. However, Sheamus rolls over onto his front and pushes himself back onto his feet before being met by an elbow from Lesnar. Sheamus manages to remain on his feet and catches the next right hand from Lesnar. Sheamus responds with a left hand which causes Lesnar to stumble before charging at him and knocking him off his feet with a shoulder block. Sheamus gets back to his feet and Lesnar soon follows suit but Sheamus grabs him by the head before tossing him to the outside. Lesnar manages to get back to his feet by the time Sheamus comes out after him and waits for Sheamus to run at him for a double handed forearm shot before ducking underneath. Lesnar turns and waits for Sheamus to turn around before taking him down with a big clothesline. Lesnar pulls Sheamus back to his feet and grabs his head before driving it into the ring post. Sheamus hits the ring post hard but manages to use the ring apron to keep himself on his feet. Lesnar doesn’t give him time to recover however and grabs Sheamus before driving him into the cell. Sheamus slumps down to the ground and Lesnar looks under the ring for something. Lesnar re-emerges from under the ring and has a steel chair in hand. Lesnar hits the chair off of the apron a few times before turning as Sheamus begins to rise. Sheamus turns and Lesnar hits him hard over the head with the chair. Sheamus falls back to the ground but Lesnar does not give up and continues to hit him over and over again with the chair. Lesnar begins to drive the chair into the throat of Sheamus and has him screaming for air. The referee runs out of the ring and tells Lesnar to stop but Lesnar just shoves the referee away. The referee manages to use the ring post to keep himself on his feet and walks over, telling Lesnar to stop once again. Lesnar has enough and turns on the referee, slamming the chair over his head. Lesnar throws the chair away as the referee hits the ground and Sheamus clutches the cell as he struggles for breath. Lesnar picks Sheamus up and grabs his head before hitting it off the ring apron. Sheamus falls to the ground once again but Lesnar doesn’t want to give him any time to recover and drags him up to his feet. Lesnar picks Sheamus up and has him in a powerslam position at the corner of the cell. Lesnar charges all the way up the side of the ring to the opposite wall of the cell and slams Sheamus into it. The sheer power and weight put behind this move causes the structure to buckle and that section of the wall caves in, causing both men to go crashing through the structure to the floor on the outside. The fans let out a big pop for this and Lesnar begins to stir. Lesnar gets to his feet and looks down on Sheamus with a bit of a grin on his face. Lesnar gets Sheamus to his feet and goes to through Sheamus into the cell but Sheamus manages to block it before hitting Lesnar with an elbow in the midsection. Sheamus grabs Lesnar by the head and throws him face first into the cell before taking a step back to check on himself. Lesnar sees this as an opportunity to begin scaling the cage and does so. Sheamus notices Lesnar climbing and jumps up to catch his leg but Lesnar is just out with his reach so he has no choice but to climb after him. Lesnar reaches the top and gets to his feet on the cell right before Sheamus joins him at the top. Both men are now on their feet on the top of the cell with Sheamus standing right at the edge. Sheamus manages to edge his way around and gets to the middle of the cell, now staring Lesnar in the eyes. Both men lunge for each other and lock up. Lesnar is quick to gain the advantage and picks Sheamus up before slamming him down. The roof of the cell gives a quiver and the entire arena goes quiet in the hope of the roof collapsing. It doesn’t look like that is going to happen so Lesnar gets Sheamus back up to his feet. Lesnar notices that a portion of the cell has become buckled so gets Sheamus set up before slamming him down on that spot with a spinebuster. Lesnar steps back as that whole panel caves in but Sheamus manages to hang on by one hand. Lesnar doesn’t notice this as he has turned his back and looks set to climb down the structure. He shows off his muscles to the crowd, garnering major heat as Sheamus begins pulling himself back up onto the cell. Eventually, he does so and gets back to his feet as Lesnar turns around, finally noticing that Sheamus hadn’t fell with the roof. Lesnar charges at Sheamus for a clothesline but Sheamus avoids it and Lesnar only just manages to remain on the roof, teetering on the edge. Lesnar finally regains his composure but when he turns around he is met by a stiff Brogue Kick from Sheamus. Lesnar instantly falls down through the gap and goes straight through the ring when he hits the mat. Sheamus looks down at the hole in the mat before dropping down to a seated position with his legs dangling over the gap. He slowly slips down and dangle from the roof of the cell before letting go and landing on his back in the ring. He is evidently in pain from the fall but he crawls over and reaches into the hole, managing to grab onto Lesnar’s arm with both hands. Sheamus hauls Lesnar out of the hole and drags him away from the hole before hooking the leg for the 1..2..3!]

Spoiler:

Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen, here is your winner, Sheamus!”

[There are major cheers from the crowd for Sheamus as he is announced the winner. The referee walks over and raises his arm in victory but all Sheamus can do is roll off of Lesnar. The cell begins to rise and doctors rush in to check on both men as soon as they can. The doctor that checks on Lesnar signals to the back that he is hurt but Sheamus shoves his doctor away. Sheamus rolls over to the ropes and rolls out onto the apron before sitting up. A few EMTs rush out from the back with a stretcher and go to tend on Lesnar while Sheamus hops down onto the ground and lands on his feet. He wobbles for a few moments before beginning to walk around the side of the ring. Lesnar is placed onto the stretcher and strapped in before being rushed up the ramp. Sheamus stops at the bottom of the ramp and shouts for his World Heavyweight Championship. The referee runs around with the belt and hands it to Sheamus who raises it high in the air. Sheamus backs up the ramp with the Championship raised in the air as No Way Out goes off the air.]

RED's Review for Karl's No Way Out

- First thing's first. I like Cody and Ryder as opponents. I think they fit.
- Nice opening contest.
- Wouldn't mind Cody winning clean but since he's a heel that cheap shot is fine.
- Good tag team match to continue the show.
- I like R-Truth's involvement. Good match, not very big and not that short.
- Big change of attitude at the part of Kofi and Evan. I like it because it's different.
- Good match with Del Rio, Punk and Barrett.
- On a personal note I would use a different way to give Barrett the win, but still it was ok.
- After the disapointment that the Divas title match gave me at OTL this Lumberjill match up made it up to me.
- Solid match and Kharma winning makes sense.
- Orton vs Jericho is something we have seen many times in the past.
- Still it was an ok match and on a personal level I like Randy Orton even if he gets boring some times.
- Bad decision to have Laurinaitis interfere like that because it makes it extremely un-entertaining at some point. You should find a better reason to have Big Johnny restart the match. Even if he has so much power he can't restart matches whenever he wants because of some deals he made. What would the Board of Directors say?
- You could find a better ending for this.
- Miz vs Bryan is next and the Steel Cage stipulation will give this match some good action.
- Not a jaw-dropping match but not bad either.
- Main event is HIAC and I don't like having two back-to-back cage matches
- Sheamus vs Lesnar would be nice to watch without the HIAC anyway.
- I like Sheamus winning and the ending was awesome even though I still believe the HIAC stipulation wasn't necessary.

All and all, this is a much improved PPV compared to OTL. It was more than a solid effort with the WWE Title match ending and the World title match type being the only two things I didn't agree on.

Total: 8/10. Keep up.

June 25th 2012

He grins out to the crowd as he slowly makes his way down the ramp as a replay is shown from John Laurinaitis getting fired last week and Ric Flair getting hired. By the time the replay ends, Flair is in the ring and has a mic in hand. Flair thanks the crowd for their kindness and thanks them again for welcoming him back to the WWE. Flair says that after No Way Out on Sunday he got a call from Triple H who asked him to fly down to RAW on Monday because he had an offer for him. Flair says that when he arrived at the show last week Triple H told him what was about to go down and Flair couldn’t refuse the offer he was given.

[As was expected, this was a very fast paced back and forth match between these two young and up-coming stars. The ending saw Evan Bourne perched on the top rope, ready to finish Kidd off with Air Bourne, when R-Truth's music hits. For the first time in months R-Truth was on Smackdown.

Alex gets up and turns into Wade who gets him up on his shoulders before hitting his signature Wasteland for the three count victory.]
