World Wrestling Entertainment ~ A Kubz Production

August 10th 2012


[Smackdown comes on the air and the brand new theme song, Burn It Down, 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 The Miz walks out onto the stage to massive boos from the crowd. He looks around at them all with a glare on his face as he slowly makes his way down the ramp. He hops onto the apron and steps in the ring before grabbing a mic. Miz starts off by telling the crowd that they’re welcome that he joined the Smackdown roster. Miz says that last week he had to make a statement on his first night here on Smackdown and he did just that by taking out both Undertaker and Jack Swagger and helping his partner Christian pick up the victory. Miz says that tonight he will be competing in the Main Event and he doesn’t care who he faces because regardless of who it is, he will easily beat them. Miz says that there is a new era here on Smackdown and it is the Era of Awesome and soon enough, he will be the WWE Champion again.]

[Eden Stiles stands in the interview area and is joined by the reigning WWE Champion, Chris Jericho. Eden starts off by reminding everyone that in nine days Chris Jericho defends his WWE Championship against Undertaker in a Casket Match. Chris rolls his eyes as she mentions this and she then goes on to ask Chris how he is preparing himself for his first ever Casket Match against the man who is famous for the match itself. Chris tells Eden that he doesn’t have to prepare himself because whether it is a Casket Match or any other match, he is still going to walk out with the WWE Championship around his waist.]

[We come back to the ring and Evan Bourne makes his way out to boos and jeers from the crowd. He gets in the ring before Zack Ryder comes out with Santino Marella by his side. Matt Striker notes that after losing in their first round match of the Tag Team #1 Contender Tournament, the two decided to remain a tandem. Ryder hops in the ring as Santino walks around to join the commentary table.]

Evan Bourne versus Zack Ryder w/ Santino Marella

[Bourne runs at Ryder as soon as the bell rings and catches him with a jumping high knee to the jaw. Ryder stumbles back into the corner before Bourne runs at him and hits him with a dropkick to the chest. Ryder falls to a seated position in the corner and Bourne begins to stomp away at his chest until he slumps down to the mat. Bourne pulls Ryder out of the corner and makes the cover on him but Ryder is quick to kick out. Bourne gets back up and waits for Ryder to do the same before going to kick him in the side. Ryder sees it coming, however, and catches it before throwing him down to the mat. Bourne quickly gets back up but Ryder meets him with a stiff kick to the midsection before following up with a right hand that sends him into the corner. Ryder runs at Bourne and hits him with a clothesline which causes him to fall to a seated position in the corner. Ryder instantly runs to the corner adjacent to the one Bourne is in and fist pumps to “WOO! WOO! WOO!” chants from the crowd. Ryder then charges at Bourne and hits the Broski Boot perfectly. Ryder steps back into the centre of the ring and does his LI taunt as he stalks the rising Bourne. Bourne gets to his feet and turns right into the Rough Ryder from Ryder. Ryder pulls Bourne away from the ropes before hooking his leg for the three count.]

[Eden Stiles stands in the interview area once again and is joined by Jack Swagger. Eden asks Jack how he is able to handle losing the Main Event of Smackdown last week because The Miz distracted him and allowed Randy Orton to hit him with a surprise RKO. Jack says that he is able to handle it because he knows he will get his revenge. Jack informs Eden that he is going to request a match with The Miz for tonight’s Main Event because he wants to prove that The Miz is nothing compared to him and the only way he can do that is by defeating him in the ring.]

Hunico gets in the ring and begins to stomp away at Brodus to jeers from the crowd. Hunico takes a step back and lets Brodus get back to his feet before hitting him with a swift kick to the face.

Hunico gets back up and charges at Brodus but is met by a running crossbody from the big man.

Christian tells Miz he will have no trouble tonight but unfortunately he has been banned from ringside for the match. Miz says that Roddy Piper is an idiot but it is no matter because he can win without anybody helping him.]

Natalya finally gets Kharma down to a seated position before driving her boot into her throat until the referee reaches the count of four. Natalya takes a few steps back and allows Kharma to crawl out of the corner before kicking her hard in the side, ensuring she remains grounded. Natalya goes to grab the downed Kharma but Kharma is waiting for her and grabs her by the throat when she comes over. Kharma gets to her feet with her hand still around the throat of Natalya and she stares right through the Challenger with a menacing look on her face. Kharma lifts Natalya up for a Chokeslam but Natalya manages to get free and lands down behind Kharma. Natalya uses all her strength to shove Kharma away from her and the Women’s Champion runs straight into the referee. The referee hits the mat and rolls onto his front, his vision now completely impaired. Natalya then looks over at Beth and motions for her to do something.

Natalya hooks one of Kharma’s arms behind her back and hooks her neck with her other arm.

[RAW comes on the air as Monster blares through the speakers. The commentators introduce us to the show before the camera sweeps over the crowd, showing many signs. The camera snaps round to the ring as Vince McMahon’s music hits and the Chairman of the WWE walks out onto the stage. Vince looks around at the booing fans with a sly grin on his face as he struts down the ramp. He stomps up the steps and gets in the ring before grabbing a mic. He steps into the centre of the ring and looks around at the crowd before finally speaking. Vince starts off by reminding everyone that in just six days the WWE will host the 25th anniversary of Summerslam. Vince says that at this event the control of the WWE will be on the line as Triple H, John Cena and Jack Swagger will take on himself, Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton. There is a massive pop from the crowd at the mention of this match but Vince quickly tells them to shut up. Vince goes on to say that there is one tiny little detail that he forgot to mention last week when Triple H made the challenge. Vince says that due to his age, he is unable to compete in the match this Sunday but he has come up with a worthy solution. Vince says that he won’t be competing in the match this Sunday but there will be a McMahon fighting the name. Vince points up the ramp and the crowd are already cheering as they know who is coming.]

Here Comes The Money!

[The crowd jump to their feet as Shane McMahon dances out onto the stage in a suit. Shane looks around at the crowd with a grin on his face as he walks down the ramp to join his father in the ring. The two men embrace before Vince turns back to the crowd and informs them that this Sunday a McMahon will win the match to ensure that the McMahons remain in control of the WWE forever.

Cara sees what Christian is doing and runs across the apron before going to dive down at Christian but is met by a massive chair shot to the ribs. Cara falls to the ground in serious pain and Christian throws the chair into Miz in the ring. Miz catches the chair and instantly swings at the back of Show but it doesn’t appear to hurt Show, only angering him. Show turns and begins to corner Miz but Christian comes in with another chair in hand and hits Show over the back. This one seems to hurt Show as he stumbles but then turns to go after Christian. Miz then takes another shot at Show, this time to the legs. Show’s legs buckle and he falls to his knees. Miz and Christian then both get their chairs in hand and both hit Show over the head hard at the same time. An extremely dazed Show falls down to the mat and Miz throws his chair out before making the cover. Christian throws his chair out as well before leaving the ring and getting the referee up. Christian rolls the referee in the ring and he makes the slow three count to give Miz and Christian the win.]

Rock says that this Sunday he is going to put Punk in his place when he whoops his candy ass! Rock goes to say something else but Punk slaps the mic out of his hand and gets in his face. Punk says that he is sick of Rock and this Sunday he will prove him and everyone else wrong when he lays him out and gets the 1..2..3.

Bryan stumbles back but comes right back with another right footed kick to the leg of Ziggler. Bryan doesn’t give Ziggler any opportunity to respond this time and instead kicks Ziggler once again in the side of the leg. This last kick causes Ziggler’s leg to give way and he falls to his knees.

Ziggler goes to grab the downed Bryan but Bryan grabs the arm of Ziggler and pulls him down before locking in the Yes Lock. The crowd are on their feet, chanting “YES”, as Bryan locks the hold in nice and tight. Ziggler begins kicking out with his legs, trying to reach the bottom rope but it is just out of reach. Ziggler begins scratching at the mat, trying to crawl over to the ropes but Bryan remains strong enough to hold Ziggler where he is. Vickie Guerrero sees the match slipping away from Ziggler and gets up on the apron, screaming at the referee. The referee walks over to get Vickie off of the apron and, as he does so, Ziggler begins to tap out repeatedly. Bryan thinks he has the match won so he releases his hold and gets to his feet, repeatedly thrusting his arms upwards while shouting out “YES”. However, he soon realises what is going on and walks over to the ropes, shouting at Vickie to get down off of the apron. Ziggler slowly gets to his feet and notices that Bryan is distracted. Ziggler takes advantage of the situation and sneaks up behind Bryan before jumping up and bringing Bryan crashing down with the Zig Zag.

[We open up in the Interview area with Eden Stiles standing in a bright white dress and with a massive grin on her face.]

Eden Stiles: “Hello Ladies and Gentlemen, I am Eden Stiles and welcome to Summerslam! I am currently being joined at this time by one of the men who will be challenging for the WWE Tag Team Championships in just a matter of moments; Drew McIntyre.”

[There are a few cheers heard coming from the crowd as Drew McIntyre walks into shot, dressed for action.]

Eden Stiles: “Welcome Drew. Drew, as I alluded to just then you will be teaming up with Brodus Clay in just a matter of moments in a bid to win the WWE Tag Team Championships from Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks. Now up until just this past Monday Night on RAW, you were alligned with Curt and Tyler but turned your back on them following their assault on Brodus; instead deciding to side with your partner tonight. What was it that caused your change of heart and is that you officially no longer a client of Vickie Guerrero’s?”

Drew McIntyre: “Eden I did what was the right thing to do. I’ll be the first to admit that I was not at all pleased when paired with Brodus Clay at first but over time I’ve came to realise he is actually a good guy to have on your side. When Curt and Tyler attempted to blindside Brodus on RAW this past Monday I had to come out and help him which only fueled our bid to win the Final of the Tag Team #1 Contender Tournament two nights ago on Smackdown. Now if you don’t mind Eden, I have a Championship go to win.”

[Drew walks off down the crooridor, obviously ready for the match, leaving Eden grinning into the camera.]

Drew throws his arms in the air before slowly proceeding down the ramp.

Drew McIntyre & Brodus Clay versus Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks w/ Vickie Guerrero ~ WWE Tag Team Championships

[McIntyre and Hawkins start things off in this match and meet in the centre of the ring. McIntyre extends his hand for Hawkins to shake but Hawkins shakes his head before hitting McIntyre over the jaw with a stiff right hand. The anger which has been building up in Hawkins for weeks comes out here as he proceeds to drop down to his knees and hit McIntyre over the head repeatedly with right hands. Hawkins gets back to his feet and walks over to his corner, tagging in Reks. Reks gets in and gets McIntyre up to his feet straightaway. Reks knees McIntyre hard in the midsection before lifting him up in the air in a military press position. Reks walks around the ring with McIntyre in his hands, laughing as he does so, before walking over to the ropes and going to toss McIntyre out but McIntyre drops down behind Reks. McIntyre kicks Reks hard in the back of the knee before grabbing him by the head and throwing him down hard onto his knee. McIntyre pulls Reks away from the ropes before dropping down on top of him and making the cover for a mere one count. McIntyre gets back to his feet and stomps down hard on the face of Reks before walking over to his corner and tagging in Clay. McIntyre steps out onto the apron as Clay gets in the ring and stands behind Reks, beginning to gyrate as he stalks him. Reks gets up and turns right into a right hand from Clay. Reks stumbles back into the ropes but bounces off of them and coming back with a clothesline to Clay. Clay only stumbles back a little and Reks goes for a second clothesline but Clay sees it coming this time and ducks underneath before grabbing Reks and throwing him across the ring with the T-Bone Suplex. Clay gets back up as Reks sprawls about in the corner. Reks gets up into a standing position but is soon squashed hard against the turnbuckles by the massive frame of Clay. Clay takes a few steps back and allows Reks to stumble into him before Clay hoists him into the air and turns around before slamming Reks down in the centre of the ring with a spinebuster. Clay runs off the ropes but sees McIntyre asking for the tag. Clay walks over and tags in McIntyre, who gets in the ring and stalks the rising Reks. Reks gets up and McIntyre snatches him before quickly hitting the Future Shock DDT. McIntyre hooks the leg of Reks as Clay gets in the ring to make sure Hawkins doesn’t break up the cover and the referee counts the 1..2..3!]

Justin Roberts: “Here are your winners and the NEW WWE Tag Team Champions, Drew McIntyre and Brodus Clay!”

[McIntyre slowly rises to his feet, staring down at Reks with a grin on his face. Clay walks over and joins him and the two embrace before being handed the WWE Tag Team Championships. The referee raises both of their arms in the air before both men climb to the second rope and raise the Championships in the air with both hands.

Triple H: “Okay listen guys, tonight is the most important night of my career and I don’t want it ruined because of one of you. John, we have had our differences over the years but tonight we have to put all of that behind us because if we don’t then all control is going to go back to Vince McMahon and you know that this will only cause trouble for the both of us if that is to happen. As for you Jack, I am putting a lot of trust in you tonight. I don’t know if you are ready for this but you better be because if something happens to me and John and it comes down to you I need to know that you can handle the pressure.”

Jack Swagger “You can trust me Hunter, don’t worry.”

Triple H: “Good. What about you John, can I trust you?”

John Cena “Triple H, you shouldn’t even have to ask that. I hate Vince almost as much as you. Hell the reason you took over was because he was about to fire me so who is to say he won’t finish what he started before he lost his duties? I am fighting for the safety of my career tonight, you can trust me on that.”

Triple H: “Good. Well that is all I have to say so good luck tonight guys, we’re going to need it.”

Glamazon!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing first, the challenger, from Buffalo, New York, “The Glamazon” Beth Phoenix!”

[Beth Phoenix slowly walks out onto the stage to a mixture of both cheers and boos from the crowd. She raises her arms in the air above her head before slowly walking down the ramp. She walks up the steps before climbing to the top rope. She takes a seat on the top turnbuckle with her back to the ring before raising her arms in the air once again.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing her opponent from Tokyo, Japan, she is the current WWE Women’s Champion, Kharma!”

She unhooks her shoulder pads and lets them drop to the ground before throwing the Championship over her shoulder and continuing down the ramp. She gets up on the apron and stares in at Beth before entering over the top rope. She hands over her Championship to the referee before turning and staring across at Beth.]

Beth Phoenix versus Kharma © ~ Women’s Championship

[The two women walk up to each other in the centre of the ring and go face to face. Beth pushes right into Kharma and seems to be talking a lot of smack talk but Kharma just stares right back at her. Beth throws the first punch and catches Kharma across the jaw. Kharma stumbles back a little and Beth responds with another right and another right until Kharma is up against the ropes. Beth takes a few steps back and runs at Kharma for a clothesline but Kharma catches Beth by the throat and pushes her back into the centre of the ring. Kharma lifts Beth up for the Chokeslam but Beth lands behind Kharma before kicking her hard in the back of the leg. Kharma falls to one knee and Beth takes advantage by running off the ropes and coming back with a hard kick to the back of the head of Kharma. Beth tries to roll Kharma over onto her back but by the time she gets her on her back, Kharma hits Beth with a right hand which causes Beth to stumble away from her. Kharma gets back up and charges at Beth, taking her down by using her whole body as a battering ram. Beth hits the mat but smartly rolls to the outside before Kharma can capitalise. Beth walks over to the announce table and kicks it in frustration, still not finding a way to ground Kharma long enough for the three count. Beth suddenly has an idea and puts her hands up to the referee, telling him to stop his count. Beth grabs a mic from Justin Roberts before climbing up onto the apron.]

Beth Phoenix: “Kharma just wait a minute. How about we make this match a little bit more interesting, huh? How about we make this a Falls Count Anywhere Match.”

[The fans give a loud pop as Beth lays down the challenge to Kharma. Kharma thinks about this for a moment before nodding towards Beth. Beth drops the mic and the referee calls for the bell to reset this match. Beth goes to enter the ring but instead changes her mind and drops down to the ground before grabbing the Women’s Champion. Beth walks around the ring and backs up the ramp, egging on Kharma to follow her. It isn’t until Beth gets to the top of the ramp that Kharma leaves the ring and heads off after her. Beth turns and disappears backstage as Kharma is still walking up the ramp. Kharma disappears backstage after Beth and a camera soon finds Beth backstage as she runs down a hallways, Kharma not far in pursuit. Beth turns a corner and Kharma goes to run round after her but Beth comes running back round and surprises Kharma with a hard shot to the head with the Women’s Championship. Beth throws it down as the referee catches up with them and Beth makes the cover but Kharma is able to kick out. Beth doesn’t give in and gets back up, stomping away at the head of Kharma. Beth makes the cover again but yet again Kharma kicks out. Beth gets to her feet and waits for Kharma to begin doing the same before walking off down the corridor. The referee makes sure to pick up the Women’s Championship before running off after them. Kharma takes off after Beth and she is soon chasing down Beth once again. Beth barges through a door and Kharma runs in after her. Beth, however, finds no exit as they have just barged into the men’s locker room. Several superstars jump to their feet and back up to the wall as Kharma finally gets her hands on Beth. Kharma grabs Beth by the throat with both hands and picks her up into the air before throwing her hard against the wall. Beth sprawls down to the floor and looks to be in severe pain as a menacing Kharma stands over her. Kharma drags Beth to her feet and pulls her out of the locker room by her hair. Kharma throws Beth against the wall again and pulls her onto her back before making the cover for the 1..2..NO! KICKOUT! Kharma gets back to her feet and pulls Beth up before dragging her down the corridor. Kharma grabs Beth by the head with both hands and goes to throw her against the wall but Beth stops herself from hitting it and instead turns and kicks Kharma hard in the midsection. Beth then takes off running down the corridor but seems to be running slower than she was earlier. Beth runs through the first door she finds and is in luck as she enters the massive food court. Beth zig zags through the many tables but Kharma is hot on her heels. Beth stops at a table with a massive tray of food on it and picks it up. Beth waits until Kharma is right behind her before turning and going to through it at Kharma but Kharma moves out of the way and the tray hits the referee. As the referee wipes food off of his face, Kharma takes down Beth with a hard right hand. Beth slumps over the table and Kharma motions for the match to come to an end. Kharma pulls Beth down and hooks her arms before hoisting her up and crashing her through the table with Bad Kharma. Kharma pulls Beth out of the debris before hooking her leg for the 1..2..3!]

Justin Roberts: “Here is your winner and STILL WWE Women’s Champion, Kharma!”

[Kharma slowly rises back to her feet as she is announced the winner. The referee goes to raise her arm but Kharma scares him off and instead takes her Women’s Championship. Kharma raises it in the air as she stands over Beth’s body next to the debris from the table. Kharma turns and storms off out of the food court as other employees rush over to check on the Glamazon.]

The last time I took on Wade Barrett was at Money In The Bank and, as you know, I defeated him. Tonight will be no different. Tonight I am going to go out there and kick Barrett so hard he isn’t going to remember what happened. Then I am going to hold this Championship until I become the longest reigning World Heavyweight Champion in history!”

Sin Cara versus Rey Mysterio

[Cara and Mysterio walk over to each other in the middle of the ring and slap hands before bowing to each other in respect. The two men take a few steps back from each other before beginning to circle each other. Both men lock up in the centre of the ring with Rey getting the early advantage by falling backwards and flipping Cara over his head. Rey kips up to his feet and runs off the ropes as Cara begins getting up. Cara turns and Rey jumps up onto his shoulders before spinning around and hitting him with a hurricanrana which sends Cara flying across the ring. Rey gets to his feet and waits for Rey to do the same before charging at him and hitting Cara with a dropkick which sends him crashing into the turnbuckles. The fans are on their feet for this fast paced match and seem to be split down the middle in favour of both men. Rey gets back to his feet and lifts Cara up onto the top rope before climbing up to the second rope after him. Rey hits Cara with a right hand over the head before jumping up for the hurricanrana but Cara turns it around in mid air, doing another 180 which lands in a pinfall attempt for a close two count. Cara slowly gets back to his feet and there is a massive “this is awesome” chant from the crowd. Cara turns and helps Rey back to his feet before whipping him across the ring.

Cara drops down on top of Rey and makes the cover for another two count. Cara runs over and hops onto the top rope before stalking the rising Rey. Rey gets to his feet and Cara dives down for a crossbody but Rey meets him in midair with a big dropkick to the chest. Cara hits the mat hard and Rey runs off the ropes before hitting Cara with a rolling senton. Rey quickly hooks the leg of Cara but Cara rolls it through into a crucifix after the one count and gets a two count of his own. Cara releases his hold and both men get to their feet at roughly the same time. Cara hits Rey with a swift kick to the side of the leg before jumping up and hitting him with a headscissor takedown. Cara jumps back to his feet and stands next to the ropes, waiting for Rey to get back up. Rey soon does so and Cara springboard off of the ropes and turns around, going for a DDT but Rey catches Cara and tosses him over his head. Rey stumbles away from Cara and shakes his head a little before turning as Cara begins getting to his feet. Cara gets up but has his back to Rey so Rey hits him with a dropkick to the back which sends him onto his knees, in prime position for the 619. Rey points up to the Heavens and runs off the ropes before going for the 619 but Cara moves out of the way and Rey spins back around and lands on the apron. Cara jumps up and catches Rey with a big kick to the head, causing him to fall down to the ground. Cara gets to his feet and watches as Rey slowly gets to his feet. Cara runs off the ropes and dives over the top rope, landing hard on Rey with the senton. Both men are sprawled out on the outside, both obviously hurt. Cara is first to his feet and he pulls Rey up as well before sliding him in the ring. Cara jumps up onto the apron and climbs to the top rope with Rey still down on the mat. Cara turns around and dives down for the moonsault but Rey moves out of the way so Cara lands on his feet. Cara stumbles back a little and Rey pulls himself to his feet before jumping on the shoulders of Cara and hitting him with a hurricanrana which sends him into position for the 619. Rey points to the Heavens once again and runs off the ropes, this time connecting with the 619. Cara flops back onto the mat and Rey looks around at the crowd, who are once again on their feet. Rey begins to climb up in the corner, finally reaching the top. However, before Rey is able to dive down Cara jumps up onto the second rope and hits Rey with a right hand to the face before climbing up to the top rope with him. The two trade blows before Cara ducks underneath an attempted right from Rey and snatches him. Cara flips both of them over and executes the Moonsault Side Slam perfectly. Cara quickly makes the cover and the referee drops down to count the 1..2..3!]

Lilian Garcia: “Ladies and Gentlemen here is your winner, Sin Cara!”

[There are massive cheers from the crowd as Cara gets back to his feet and has his arm raised in victory by the referee. Cara jumps up to the second rope and throws his arms in the air to more cheers from the crowd. Cara jumps down and runs across to the other corner before jumping to the second rope. Cara throws his arms in the air once again before jumping down and helping Rey to his feet. The two stare at each other before Rey extends his hand to Cara, which Cara obviously accepts. The two embrace before Rey raises Cara’s arm in the air in victory. The two continue to celebrate with each other as the scene fades.]

[The fans once again begin to boo as Vince McMahon struts out onto the stage. Vince looks out to the crowd before continuing down the ramp. He walks around the side of the ring and pulls up a seat in front of the announce table and sits down to watch the match.]

Jack Swagger w/ Abraham Washington, John Cena & Triple H w/ Stephanie McMahon versus Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar & Shane McMahon w/ Vince McMahon ~ If Triple H’s team wins; Triple H will become the new Chairman of the WWE. If Vince McMahon’s team wins; Vince McMahon will remain the Chairman of the WWE and Triple H will be fired as COO.

[Jack and Randy start things off for this match, slowly circling each other around the ring. The two meet in the middle and lock up with Jack managing to gain control and lock Randy in a headlock. Randy quickly gets out of his hold and shoves Jack off of the ropes before catching him on the rebound with a stiff clothesline. Jack is quick to get back to his feet but Randy meets him with a hard kick to the midsection before nailing him with a big DDT. Randy rolls Jack onto his back and hooks his leg but Jack kicks out before the referee even has the chance to start the three count. Randy gets back up at the same time as Jack and goes to throw a right hand at Jack but Jack catches it and kicks Randy in the midsection before lifting him up and nailing him with a suplex. Jack gets to his feet and drags Randy over to his corner and gets the tag to Cena. Cena gets in the ring and the crowd begin to do their usual “Let’s Go Cena; Cena Sucks” chants. Cena gets in and pulls Randy to his feet before tossing him across the ring. Randy rebounds off of the ropes and Cena catches him with an arm drag before jumping back to his feet. Cena stalks Randy and when he gets up he goes to punch Cena but Cena ducks underneath it and causes Randy to spin around before lifting him up and hitting him with the spin-out powerbomb. Cena throws his arm in the air and gives Randy his “you can’t see me” taunt before running off the ropes. Cena comes rebounding off the ropes and Randy jumps to his feet and jumps up for the RKO but Cena catches it and shoves Randy away from him, who quickly gets the tag to Shane. Shane steps in the ring and stares across at Cena, who just grins at him. Shane runs at Cena and begins to hit him with rights and lefts to the abdomen but Cena easily over powers Shane and clotheslines him back down to the mat. Cena drags Shane back to his feet and tosses him into the corner before pointing to Triple H, obviously asking the crowd if they want him to tag him in. The crowd cheer in response and Cena walks over to tag Triple H in but Shane surprises Cena with a low dropkick to the knee of Cena. Cena falls hard into the corner and hits his head off of the second turnubuckle. Shane drags Cena out of the corner and makes the cover but Cena is quick to kick out. Shane grabs Cena’s leg and drags him over to the corner before holding him down as he gets the tag to Orton. Orton steps in the ring and commences to stomp away at Cena, not giving in once. Orton finally stops and pulls Cena to his feet before shouting in his face that his time is up. Orton shoves Cena into the corner and kicks away at his abdomen until he slumps down to a seated position in the corner. Orton turns and begins to get riled up, rubbing his hands over his head before turning and charging at Cena, meeting him with a massive kick to the face. Orton pulls Cena out of the corner and hooks his leg but Cena kicks out after the two count. Orton gets up and grins at Triple H and Swagger in the corner, both of which are screaming at Cena to get up. Orton winks at them before turning and dropping to the mat, pounding it as he stalks the downed Cena. Cena begins rising and Orton does so at the same time. Cena gets to his feet and turns right into Orton who jumps up for the RKO. Cena catches it once again and throws Orton down to the mat before lunging over to his corner and getting the tag to Triple H. The crowd instantly begin to cheer as the COO steps into the ring and stares across at the rising Orton. Triple H doesn’t go after him and instead waits for him to get to his feet before telling him he wants Lesnar. Orton laughs and says that if he wants him he can get him. Orton turns and gets the tag to Lesnar, who steps into the ring as the crowd jump to their feet. Lesnar and Triple H stand at opposite sides of the ring, just staring at each other. The two charge at each other and meet in the centre of the ring where they proceed to exchange clubbing blow after clubbing blow to the jaw. Lesnar is the first to gain an advantage as he sends Triple H down to the mat with an extremely hard right hand. Triple H soon gets back up but Lesnar already has the advantage and he begins to unload on Triple H with knees to the midsection followed by massive knees to the head. Lesnar finally allows Triple H to fall to the mat before throwing his arms in the air to massive boos. Lesnar drags Triple H back to his feet and throws him off the ropes before catching him on the rebound with a massive spear. Lesnar gets back to his feet and Shane shouts at him to set him up in the corner. Lesnar begins to laugh as he drags Triple H over to the corner and gets him in a seated position. Lesnar then walks over to his corner and tags in Shane, who instantly climbs to the top rope. Vince jumps up onto the apron and distracts the referee as Lesnar leaves the ring and grabs a trash can from under the ring. Lesnar holds it to the face of Triple H. Stephanie has obviously seen enough and runs over to stop her father distracting the referee but this proves to be a distraction of its own. Shane quickly takes the advantage and dives down, nailing the Coast To Coast perfectly. Lesnar pulls the crushed trash can out of the ring and throws it down to the ground before getting back up on the apron in the corner. Stephanie slaps her father hard across the face which causes him to fall down to the ground. Stephanie then proceeds to step off of the apron and walks back to the other side of the ring as the crowd chant her name. Back in the ring, Shane pulls Triple H out of the corner and hooks the leg but Swagger smartly breaks up the count before the referee is able to count the three. Randy runs in the ring and meets the risen Swagger with a stiff clothesline which sends him down to the mat. Swagger quickly gets back up but he walks right into an RKO from out of nowhere. Orton gets back to his feet and has a massive grin on his face but he is spun around by Cena, who gets him up on his shoulders and nails him with the Attitude Adjustment which sends him over the top rope to the outside. Cena turns back around and sees Lesnar charging at him so smartly ducks underneath and pulls down the top rope, which causes Lesnar to topple to the outside. Cena gets back upright but is met by a massive dropkick from Shane, which sends Cena toppling to the outside. Shane gets back to his feet as a dazed Triple H begins getting to his feet. Triple H gets up and Shane goes to hit him with a right hand but Triple H catches it. Triple H begins to fume at Shane and he kicks him hard in the midsection before hooking his arms. Triple H looks around at the screaming fans and jumps up before hitting the Pedigree. Triple H rolls Shane over onto his back and makes the cover but Vince jumps up onto the apron and tries to get in the ring so the referee runs over to stop him. Triple H gets back to his feet and walks over, shouting at Vince to get down. Stephanie runs up the steps and gets in the ring, walking over to join her husband in getting Vince off the apron. Triple H gives up and walks away, leaving this to the referee. Triple H turns his back to what is going on and makes sure Shane isn’t getting up before turning to see if Vince is off the apron yet. However, when Triple H turns around he is met by a massive kick to the groin area from his wife, Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie gives Triple H a sly grin as he falls to the mat and she turns to leave the ring. Vince hops off of the apron as Stephanie leaves. Shane uses the ropes to drag himself to his feet as Triple H slowly rises but is obviously still in pain after the kick from Stephanie. Triple H gets up and Shane meets him with a quick left jab straightaway. Shane does this twice more before nailing Triple H with a massive right hook which sends him down to the mat, finishing off the Shane O’ Shuffle. Shane drops down on top of Triple H and hooks his leg for the 1..2..3!]

Justin Roberts: “Ladies and Gentlemen here are your winners, Randy Orton, Brock Lesnar and Shane McMahon! Therefore, Vince McMahon is still the Chairman of the WWE and Triple H has been FIRED as the Chief Operating Office of the WWE!”

[The fans appear to still be in complete shock after what transpired. Stephanie McMahon walks up the steps and enters the ring, joining her brother Shane who has gotten back to his feet. Randy and Brock soon slide back in and the four of them stand over the fallen body of Triple H before Vince walks in and joins them, a microphone in his hand. Vince instructs Brock and Randy to get Triple H up to his knees, which they instantly do. Vince leans over and gets right in the face of the extremely dazed Triple H.]

Vince McMahon: “Triple H, YOU’RE FIIIIIIRRRREED!”

[Vince throws the mic down and Brock and Randy release their grip on Triple H. The two men kick Triple H out of the ring where John and Jack quickly check on him. Vince stands in the middle of the ring and has his arms raised in the air by both Stephanie and Shane while Brock and Randy climb to the second ropes adjacent to each other and throw their arms in the air. The five of them continue to celebrate this massive victory as the scene fades.]

[CM Punk is standing backstage, jumping up and down on the spot as he prepares himself for his match later on tonight. Punk turns as he hears someone walking behind him and is met by his opponent tonight, The Rock. The two stare right through each other, neither even stopping to blink. They both wish each other luck and shake hands before Rock continues on down his path.]

Lilian Garcia: “The following is a Casket Match and it will be for the WWE Championship!”

Ain’t No Grave Can Hold My Body Down!

Lilian Garcia: “Introducing first, the challenger, from Death Valley and weighing 299lb, The Undertaker!”

[The fans begin to cheer as smoke bellows down the ramp from the stage and surrounds the entire ring. Undertaker slowly walks out onto the stage in a long black cloak and hi black hat on his head. He stops on the stage and looks up at the ring before slowly proceeding down the ramp. Undertaker slowly walks up the steps before entering the ring and standing in the corner. He grabs his hat and pulls it off of his head, obscuring his face for a brief second. When he moves the hat, his eyes have rolled to the back of his head but he soon rolls them back forward as thunder crackles in the arena and the lights come back on in the arena. He drops his hat to the outside of the ring and takes the cloak off before dropping that to the outside as well.]

Break The Walls Down!

Lilian Garcia: “Introducing his opponent from Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and weighing 227lb, he is the current WWE Champion, Chris Jericho!”

[Pyro explodes on the stage before Chris Jericho’s music hits and he walks out onto the stage with his WWE Championship around his waist. Chris stops on the stage and looks out to the crowd before proceeding down the ramp. He walks up the steps before entering the ring and taking off his Championship. He climbs to the second rope and raises it in the air with one hand before jumping down and handing it over.]

[The two mens stand opposite one another, staring through each other as an onimous gong sounds around the arena. Six druids walk out carrying the coffin in which one of these two competitors will end up. They carry it down the ramp and leave it resting against the ring before heading backstage.]

Undertaker versus Chris Jericho © ~ WWE Championship ~ Casket Match

[Jericho charges at Undertaker right off the bat and goes for a flying forearm shot but Undertaker moves out of the way and Jericho goes flying into the corner. Jericho hits his head hard off of the top turnbuckle and stumbles back into Undertaker, who lifts him up before placing him on the top rope. Undertaker pulls Jericho back causing him to fall into the tree of woe. Undertaker begins to stomp on Jericho’s head repeatedly as the referee begins the five count. When the referee reaches four, Undertaker steps back and allows Jericho to fall down into a heap in the corner. Undertaker walks over and begins pulling Jericho to his feet but Jericho pulls Undertaker back and throws him hard into the ring post. Jericho rolls away and gets to his feet as Undertaker begins pulling himself away from the ring post. Undertaker gets back to his feet and turns around, instantly getting met by a big dropkick from Jericho which causes him to bounce off the turnuckles and land in a seated position in the corner. Jericho charges at Undertaker and goes for a low dropkick but Undertaker moves out of the way and Jericho has to stop himself from colliding with the ring post. Jericho crawls out of the corner and gets to his feet, meeting a big boot from Undertaker in the process. Undertaker stalks Jericho as he begins getting to his feet. Jericho gets up and turns around to Undertaker, who grabs him by the throat. Undertaker hoists Jericho into the air and as he brings him back down for the Chokeslam, Jericho grabs Undertaker’s head and hits him with the Codebreaker at the same time. Both men sprawl out on the mat on their backs, neither looking ready to make a move. Undertaker suddenly sits up and the crowd jump to their feet as he gets up and signals for the end. Undertaker waits for Jericho to get his feet before lifting him up for the Tombstone but Jericho gets out of his hold before nailing him with a second Codebreaker. Jericho slowly rises to his feet and motions for the casket to be open and the two referees situated at the casket oblige. Jericho begins rolling Undertaker over but Undertaker grabs onto the bottom rope and tries to stop him. Jericho stops rolling Undertaker and instead runs off the ropes before hitting Undertaker with a dropkick which sends him flying under the bottom rope and landing hard in the casket. Jericho leans over the ropes and goes to shut the lid of the casket but Undertaker kicks the lid up and it hits Jericho square in the jaw. Jericho stumbles back into the ring and Undertaker rolls back in before getting to his feet. Undertaker charges at Jericho for a clothesline but Jericho ducks underneath before running off the ropes and springboarding off for the Lionsault on a standing Undertaker. Undertaker has Jericho’s number though and catches him in perfect position for the Tombstone before nailing his finisher move. Undertaker rolls Jericho over to the bottom rope before making sure he lands on his back inside the casket. Undertaker places Jericho’s arms on his chest before leaning over and closing the lid to end the match.]

Lilian Garcia: “Ladies and Gentlemen here is your winner and the NEEEEWWW WWE Champion, The Undertaker!”

[The fans are on their feet cheering as the lights dim with a purple tint. The referee hands him the WWE Championship and he drops down to one knee, holding it in one hand as Matt Striker notes that this is The Undertaker’s eighth World Championship reign. Undertaker gets to his feet and stands with the WWE Championship in his hand as the scene fades.]

[We open up in an office backstage and the crowd begin to boo massively as Vince McMahon sits behind his desk, a massive grin on his face now that he is back in full control of the WWE.]

Vince McMahon: “Ladies and Gentlemen earlier on tonight you witnessed me once again seize control of the WWE, ensuring that this company remains in the ownership of the McMahon family. Now that I am back in control there are a few things which I am not too happy about with the current product and those things are going to change. What these things are, however, will be revealed tomorrow night on RAW. You see I am going to be there live on RAW tomorrow night and I have some big announements which concern the future of the entire WWE.”

Justin Roberts: “The following match is set for one fall!”

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

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

[The fans burst into cheers as CM Punk runs out onto the stage. He drops down to one knee and rubs his hand along the stage before shouting out “its clobbering time” before getting to his feet and punching the air. He turns around and spreads out his arms while backing down the ramp. He turns as he reaches the bottom and jumps up onto the apron before stepping in the ring. He climbs to the second rope and puts one foot on the top rope while putting his wrist to his ear. He jumps back down and begins to jump up and down, waiting for his opponent.]

If You Smell – What The Rock – Is Cookin’!

Justin Roberts: “Introducing his opponent from Miami, Florida and weighing 260lb, The Rock!”

[The fans cheer even louder as The Rock’s music hits. A few moments later The Rock storms out onto the stage and looks around at the crowd with a massive grin on his face. Rock walks to the edge of the stage and looks out to the crowd before proceeding down the ramp. Rock hops onto the apron before climbing to the second rope and raising his arm in the air. He jumps over the top rope and lands in the ring before standing opposite Punk, ready for this match.]

CM Punk versus The Rock

[The two men walk over to each other in the centre of the ring when the bell rings and shake hands with each other before taking a few steps back. Both men circle each other in the ring for a few moments before charging at each otehr in the centre of the ring and locking up. Rock overpowers the smaller Punk and gets him in a headlock. Rock attempts to get the hold in tighter but Punk squirms his way out and lifts Rock into the air before bringing him back down with a back bodyslam. Punk gets back to his feet just before Rock does the same and the two men go back to standing at oppsite sides of the ring from one another. Punk grins over at Rock and shakes his head but Rock remains focused, just staring across at his opponent. The two charge at each other to lock up once again but Punk goes down low and grabs Rock’s leg, getting him down to the mat. Punk gets back up and kicks Rock hard in the side before pulling him back to his feet. Before Punk is able to do anything, Rock throws Punk’s hands off of him and hits Rock with a stiff forearm shot to the head. Punk stumbles back and Rock hits him with a right hand over the jaw, getting him backed up against the ropes. Rock throws Punk across the ring and goes to catch him with a clothesline on the rebound but Punk ducks underneath and uses the momentum to jump up and wrap his legs around Rock’s arm, bringing him down in the crucifix pinfall for just a one count. Punk gets up just a few moments before Rock and catches his opponent with a swift kick to the head. Rock stumbles back and Punk jumps up, taking him down with a big dropkick. Punk drops down on top of Rock and hooks the leg for yet another one count. Punk gets up to his knees and looks up at the referee in frustration before climbing up to his feet. Punk stalks Rock as he slowly begins getting up, a little dazed after the dropkick from Punk. Rock finally gets up and Punk spins him around before getting him up on his shoulders. Punk has Rock in position for the GTS and the crowd are on their feet as he looks set to hit it. Punk throws Rock up in the air but Rock shifts his weight and goes the other way, landing on his feet behind Punk. Rock spins Punk around and grabs him for the Rock Bottom but Punk hits Rock with repeated elbows to the head until he releases his hold. Rock finally lets go and Punk knees him hard in the midsection before hitting him with a DDT. Punk rolls Rock over onto his back and makes the cover for a two count. Punk gets up to his feet and shakes his head in frustration before turning and watching Rock crawl over to the corner. Rock reaches the corner and uses the ropes to pull him to his feet. Rock turns around and Punk charges at him. Punk goes to knee Rock in the jaw but Rock moves out of the way. Punk lands on the top rope and he climbs up, waiting on Rock to turn back around. Punk is ready to dive down but Rock sees it coming and throws himself at the ropes which causes Punk to fall down hard on the groin region. Rock climbs up to the second rope after Punk and hits him with a right hand over the head before pulling him back to his feet on the top rope. Rock climbs up to the top rope as well and gets him set up for the superplex but Punk uses all of his energy and power to hit Rock with right hand after right hand to the abdomen until Rock finally releases his hold on Punk. Punk finishes off by kicking Rock down to the mat. Rock lands hard on the mat and Punk stands up straight, pointing to the Heavens, before diving down and hitting the elbow drop hard on the chest of Rock. Punk leans over and hooks the leg of Rock and the referee drops down to count the 1..2..NO! KICKOUT! Rock just manages to get the shoulder up and the crowd jump to their feet as Punk looks at the referee in shock. Punk gets up to his feet and leans against the ropes, motioning for Rock to get up. Rock soon begins to rise and Punk puts his head on his hands, signalling for the Go To Sleep. Rock gets to his feet and turns right into Punk, who gets him up on his shoulders. Punk walk over to the centre of the ring and stares into the camera as he nails the GTS on Rock. The fans are on their feet as Punk drops down on top of Rock and hooks the leg for the 1..2..NO! KICKOUT! For the second time, Rock kicks out just before the referee’s hand hit the mat for the three count. Punk sits up and pulls at his hair, asking the referee for confirmation that it was in fact just a two count. Punk gets back to his feet and looks around, trying to figure out what else he can do to put Rock away. Punk repositions Rock in the centre of the ring before standing at his head. Punk kicks Rock’s arms into his sides before throwing his own arms from side to side. Punk proceeds to run off the ropes and jumps over Rock’s body before running off the ropes again. Punk is coming back for the People’s Elbow but Rock jumps to his feet to meet him; shades of Rock’s Wrestlemania Match with John Cena. Rock grabs Punk and quickly lifts him up into the air before slamming him back down with the Rock Bottom. The fans are in disbelief but remain on their feet as Rock throws his arm on top of Punk. 1..2..3! NO! PUNK KICKS OUT! It looked like the referee had made the three count but Punk got his shoulder up at literally the last moment. Rock rolls over onto his back and holds his head. Both men are down and look to be exhausted. The referee has no choice here but to begin his ten count. Rock begins stirring as the referee reaches the five count, with Punk following suit at the count of six. Both men are on their knees by the time the referee reaches the count of eight and soon enough both are back to their feet. Rock throws the first right but Punk responds with a big kick to the side of the head. Rock stumbles back a little but comes back with a massive right hand to Punk that causes him to stagger back. Rock then hits Punk with another right hand, followed by another before Punk throws his hand in the air. Rock then closes his hand in a fist and brings it crashing down on the jaw of Punk, sending him down to the mat. Rock pulls Punk back to his feet before lifting him up in the air and nailing the Spinebuster, ensuring Punk lands in the centre of the ring. Rock kicks Punk’s arms into his side before pulling off his elbow pad and throwing it out of the ring. Rock then throws his arms back and forth before running off the ropes. Rock runs over Punk’s body before running off the ropes again and coming back for the People’s Elbow. However, Punk – like Rock was when Punk went for the same move – had gotten back to his feet and was waiting for Rock on the rebound. Punk uses Rock’s own momentum to get him up on his shoulders before quickly nailing the GTS. Punk falls down on top of Rock and hooks his leg for the 1..2..3!][/color]

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

[The fans look to be in complete shock as CM Punk is crowned the victor over The Rock. Punk rolls off of Rock and lies on his back, holding his head as the crowd chant his name. Punk slowly gets back to his feet before having his arm raised in victory by the referee. Punk climbs to the second rope and throws his arms up in celebration while shouting out to the crowd. He jumps down and continues celebrating in the ring as Rock slides to the outside and sits against the apron, obviously frustrated with the loss. Punk jumps back to the second rope and raises his arms in the air again, to more cheers from the crowd.]

Glass Shatters!

[The fans literally explode with cheers and Punk turns and looks up the stage in shock. The crowd erupt into cheers even more as ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin storms out onto the stage. Austin doesn’t stop to look around and heads straight down the ramp. He stomps up the steps before getting in the ring. He walks straight passed Punk, who has got down off of the second rope, and instead jumps up onto the second rope and throws his arms up in the air. He motions for something and straightaway somebody throws Austin beer after beer until Austin has three in his hand. Austin then jumps down and asks for a mic, which he also gets. Austin walks over to Punk and holds a beer out in front of him.]

‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin: “You want a drink son?”

[The crowd laugh as Punk shakes his head at Austin and rolls his eyes. Austin shrugs his shoulders at Punk and opens it himself before downing the can. Austin throws the can aside before turning back to Punk.]

‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin: “Now listen son, you’re probably wondering why I am out here right now. WHAT? Well son, it is simple you see. WHAT? You just defeated The Rock. WHAT? Congratulations by the way. WHAT? But you see, here’s the thing. WHAT? The Rock ain’t no Stone Cold. WHAT? Stone Cold has kicked The Rock’s “candy” ass so many times Stone Cold can’t remember the exact number. WHAT? So defeating The Rock may be an accomplishment but it isn’t the biggest accomplishment. WHAT? You want to call yourself the best in the world son? WHAT? Then beat me.”

[The crowd explode into cheers again as Austin glares right through Punk. Punk stands with his arms folded, waiting for Austin to continue.]

‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin: “The last time Stone Cold laced up his boots he got beat off The Rock at Wrestlemania but the only reason The Rock beat Stone Cold was because I was wrestling with a god damn broken neck! Now I am retired but I am coming out for one more match and that match is going to be against you CM Punk! How about it? Me and you at Wrestlemania XXIX?”

[Austin hands the mic to Punk and stands, waiting for his answer.]

CM Punk: “You and me at Wrestlemania? You’re on!”

[Punk throws down the mic and gets in the face of Austin, who just laughs at him. The two stare right through each other as the credits roll with the crowd still on their feet.]

August 20th 2012


[RAW comes on the air as Monster blares through the speakers. The commentators introduce us to the show before the camera sweeps over the crowd, showing many signs. The camera snaps round to the ring as Daniel Bryan’s music hits. Bryan walks out onto the stage and doesn’t seem to be as happy as usual, not even chanting “YES” as he usually does – however the fans, as always, do so. Bryan walks down the ramp and grabs a mic off of the apron before walking up the steps and entering the ring. Bryan gets straight down to business and says that last night he unfairly lost both his Intercontinental Championship and a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. Bryan says that last night he made Dolph Ziggler tap out to the Yes Lock and he thought that he had won the RAW Money In The Bank briefcase. Bryan says that it was at this point that he realised what had happened but by now it was too late. Bryan says that tonight he will be in the #1 Contender Match for the Intercontinental Championship and after winning he will go on to defeat Dolph Ziggler at the Night Of Champions PPV where he will become a two time Intercontinental Champion. Bryan goes to continue but is interrupted by “Brooklyn! Brooklyn!” The fans begin to boo as JTG dances out onto the stage with a smug look on his face. JTG heads down the ramp and grabs a mic before hopping into the ring. Bryan stares at JTG with a confused look on his face and asks him what he wants but JTG just laughs at him before telling him that last night he lost his match and tonight he is going to lose again. Bryan shakes his head and asks JTG what makes him so confident, to which he quickly replies saying that he knows he is going to lose because his opponent will be JTG. The crowd boo at this while Bryan merely chuckles. Bryan says that he thought with Ric being in charge that we got rid of jokes like him. JTG looks away from Bryan and looks pissed at what Bryan just said. Bryan asks JTG if he just struck a nerve and before Bryan is even able to defend himself, JTG lunges at him with the microphone and smashes it across his head. Bryan hits the mat and JTG pounces on top of him, hitting Bryan over the head multiple times with the microphone. JTG only stops his attack when blood begins to pour from the now open wound of Bryan. JTG gets back to his feet and throws the microphone down on top of Bryan. JTG mockingly dusts himself off before backing out of the ring and heading up the ramp. The ringside doctor rushes in the ring and holds a towel to Bryan’s head to stop the bleeding while a couple more EMTs rush down the ramp to come to the aid of Bryan.]


~


[Josh Mathews runs down the hallway as we open up backstage. He meets JTG as he heads down the corridor following his vicious assault on Bryan. Josh stops JTG and asks him why he just did what he did to Daniel Bryan. JTG laughs at Josh and says that nobody disrespects a brother from the hood and gets away with it. JTG goes on to say that if Daniel Bryan doesn’t make it to the ring later then he forfeits the match and at Night Of Champions it will be Dolph Ziggler versus JTG.]


~


[We come back to the ring and Justin Roberts announces that the following will be a Fatal Four Way Match with the winning team going on to Night Of Champions where they will take on Brodus Clay and Drew McIntyre for the WWE Tag Team Championships. Alex Riley’s music htis and he comes out first with Ted DiBiase. The two get in the ring with Zack Ryder and Santino Marella coming out next. The two guys get in the ring with The Miz and Christian coming out next. The two seem to still be pissed off after their loss on Friday and get in the ring, scowling over at their opponents. The last team out are the former Champions, Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks. The two guys make their way down the ramp before getting in the ring.]

Alex Riley & Ted DiBiase versus Zack Ryder & Santino Marella versus The Miz & Christian versus Curt Hawkins & Tyler Reks ~ Tag Team Championships #1 Contender

[Riley and Hawkins start things off with the rest of the guys out on the apron. Hawkins is seemingly still pissed off after his loss last night and begins to unload on Riley with rights and lefts which send him reeling. Hawkins gets Riley up against the ropes and grabs his arm. Hawkins throws Riley across the ring but just before he does so, Miz reaches over and tags himself in. Hawkins catches Riley with a dropkick on the rebound but before he is able to get back upright, Miz runs over and hits him with knee after knee to the midsection. Miz gets Hawkins back to his feet and hits him with a stiff forearm shot to the head before lifting him up and snapping him back down with a suplex. Miz makes the cover on Hawkins but he is able to kick out almost as quickly as the cover was made. Miz gets back up and pulls Hawkins up to his knees with him. Miz hooks Hawkin’s head for the DDT but Hawkins drives Miz into his own corner, allowing Reks to tag himself in. Reks enters the ring and punches Miz hard in the midsection before pulling him to the centre of the ring where he proceeds to hit him with a belly to belly suplex. Reks hooks the leg of Miz and the referee makes the count, only getting a one count. Reks gets to his feet and pulls Miz up with him but Miz shoves Reks away into the ropes and Ryder snatches at the opportunity to tag himself in. Reks reluctantly leaves the ring and Ryder goes straight after Miz, knocking him back with a couple of big right hands. Ryder kicks Miz hard in the midsection and lifts him up for a suplex but Miz shifts his weight and lands on his feet behind Ryder, nailing him with a neckbreaker. Miz rolls over and hooks the leg of Ryder but Ryder kicks out after the count of two. Miz gets to his feet and stalks Ryder as he begins getting to his feet. Ryder gets up and Miz snatches him from behind before nailing the Skull Crushing Finale. Miz rolls Ryder onto his back but before the referee is able to count the three, Santino rushes in the ring and breaks up the count. Miz gets back up to his feet and begins arguing with Santino, only for Santino to surprise him with The Cobra out of nowhere. Christian runs in the ring and grabs Santino from behind and then throwing him to the outside. Christian stands at the ropes, shouting out at Santino but is then attacked from behind from DiBiase, who clotheslines Christian over the top rope. Reks is in the ring next and grabs DiBiase by the head before running across the ring with him and tossing him to the outside. Reks turns back around just as Riley runs in the ring and hits the running crossbody on Reks, sending both guys toppling to the outside. Hawkins then enters the ring and realises that everyone is down except for him. Hawkins drags Ryder up to his feet and grabs him for the Laugh Riot but Ryder manages to shove him away from him. Hawkins runs back at Ryder but Ryder pounces into the air and nails the Rough Ryder. Ryder quickly gets back up, grinning down at Hawkins, but Miz comes from behind and grabs him before nailing the Skull Crushing Finale for the second time. Miz rolls Ryder onto his back and makes the cover for the 1..2..3!]

Winners and #1 Contenders to the WWE Tag Team Championships: The Miz & Christian

[Josh Mathews stands in the interview area as we open up backstage and is joined by Vickie Guerrero and Dolph Ziggler, who is standing with his Intercontinental Championship over his shoulder and RAW Money In The Bank briefcase in his hand. Josh starts off by congratulating Dolph on his victory last night before going on to ask Dolph why he had to resort to cheating to win. Dolph glares at Josh and shakes his head before reminding Josh that he never cheated. Dolph claims that it was not his fault that Daniel Bryan was such an idiot to not realise the referee was otherwise distracted to notice that he tapped the mat a couple of times. The crowd inside the arena can be heard booing as Dolph goes on to say that whether it be Daniel or JTG that wins later, he will still be Intercontinental Champion after the Night Of Champions PPV. Dolph also alludes to a possible cash in by stating “the Intercontinental Championship may not be the only Championship around my waist after the PPV.”

[The scene opens up in the parking lot outside the entrance to the arena where a limousine has just pulled up. The back door opens and Vince McMahon walks out with a massive grin on his face, dusting off his suit as he does so.

Beth Phoenix versus Layla ~ Women’s Championship #1 Contender

[Beth runs at Layla for a clothesline as soon as the bell rings but Layla ducks underneath before kicking away at Beth’s leg. Layla goes to kick Beth in her injured ribs but Beth manages to catch the kick before throwing Layla away. Layla comes back for a clothesline of her own but Beth surprises her with a stiff kick right to the previously injured knee of Layla. Layla falls down to the mat and holds her knee, screaming in pain and Beth is like a shark smelling blood. Beth drops down to her knees and begins to hit Layla’s knee with forearm shot after forearm shot before shoving Layla down onto her back and hooking her leg for a two count. Beth gets back to her feet and pulls Layla up with her before getting her in a suplex position and hooking her leg. Beth lifts Layla up and brings her crashing back down with a fisherman suplex which transitions straight into a pinfall attempt for yet another two count. Beth is beginning to get frustrated as she hoists Layla back to her feet. Beth screams in Layla’s face that she chose the wrong night to return before proceeding to damn near take Layla’s head off with a massive clothesline. Beth laughs sadistically as Layla rolls over onto her front, her only attempt to prevent Beth from instantly covering her. Beth hooks Layla’s arms behind her back and pulls her, dazed, to her feet. Beth lifts Layla into the air and goes to slam her back down with the Glam Slam but Layla is able to reverse it into the victory roll and gets the quick 1..2..3!]

Winner and #1 Contender to the Women’s Championship: Layla

[The crowd continue to cheer as Layla jumps to her feet and has her arm rasied in victory. Beth is quickly back to her feet and runs at Layla but Layla smartly drops to the mat and slides out of the ring, slightly hobbling on the previously injured leg. Layla backs up the ramp, still grinning after her victory, as the scene fades.]

[Josh Mathews stands in front of Wade Barrett’s locker room when we open up backstage. Soon after we open up, Wade walks out of his locker room wearing a suit and with his newly won World Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder. Josh stops Wade and asks him how he is feeling following his monumental victory last night. Wade chuckles at this question and infroms Josh that he is feeling great as he is now standing before everyone as the Heavyweight Champion of the World. Wade proclaims that he will be World Heavyweight Champion for a very long time and will become the first ever English-born wrestler to enter England as the World Champion when WWE goes across the pond for this year’s Survivor Series PPV. Wade goes to continue but stops as he scowls over Josh’s shoulder. Wade asks whoever it is he has noticed what the hell they want and the camera pans out to show John Cena standing behind Josh. There are loud cheers from the crowd as Cena stands, grinning at Wade. Cena congratulates Wade on winning last night but informs Wade that he will not be Champion for very long as after he wins the #1 Contender Match tonight, Cena is going to go on to defeat Wade at the Night Of Champions PPV to win yet another World Championship. Wade walks right up to Cena and gets in his face, informing him that he can say whatever he wants because regardless of who wins the match later on tonight, they will lose to Wade come Night Of Champions.]

Clay drops to his knees and Rollins begins to hit Clay with rights and lefts, ending the sequence with a big knee to the head. Clay hits the mat and Rollins makes the cover, only for his opponent to kick out almost instantly. Rollins gets back to his feet and gets the tag to Dolph, who springboards over the top rope and lands on Clay with a hard elbow straight to the chest. Dolph makes the cover on Clay but only gets a two count before Clay kicks out. Dolph gets to his feet and begins stalking Clay as he gets to his feet. Clay gets up and Dolph jumps on his back, locking in the Sleeper Hold. Clay instantly uses all of his power to charge into the corner, allowing McIntyre to tag himself in. McIntyre gets in the ring and meets Dolph with a massive big boot to the face as soon as he hops off of the back of Clay. McIntyre drops down on top of Dolph and makes the cover but only gets a two count of his effort. McIntyre gets back to his feet and brings Dolph up with him, hooking his arms for the Future Shock DDT. However, McIntyre throws Dolph away as both The Miz and Christian run down the ramp.

Dolph hooks the leg of McIntyre and the referee has no choice but to count the three.]

Winners: Seth Rollins & Dolph Ziggler

[Dolph gets up to his feet and grins down at his former partner as Vickie and Seth join his side. Vickie looks down on McIntyre and mockingly waves goodbye before turning to Seth.

Seth thinks about it for a moment before nodding his head to heat from the crowd.]

[We open up backstage with Andy Leavine standing in front of a black backdrop. Andy reminds the WWE Universe that he made his offical WWE debut a few weeks back when he defeated Titus O’Niel in the centre of the ring. Andy says that he hasn’t been seen since but this is for the simple reason of that he has not been needed. Andy informs everyone that the reason he focused his attack on Titus O’Niel was because of the simple reason that Titus was using his own size and strength to attack guys who were smaller and weaker than him. Andy says that he calles himself Silent Rage for a reason and that reason is because he only brings out his rage when it is necessary and it is necessary when people need to be taught a lesson. Andy informs everyone that the next time someone picks on someone smaller than them then he will show up.]

[We come back to the ring and Vince McMahon makes his way out to major heat from the crowd. Vince struts down the ramp with a massive grin on his face as the finish to the big Six Man Tag Team Match from last night is shown. By the time the replay finishes, Vince is in the ring and has a mic in hand but is unable to speak because of the sheer volume of boos coming from the crowd. Vince eventually tells the crowd to shut up before reminding everyone that the WWE is now firmly back in his own control. Vince reminds everyone that last night Triple H was fired and he can assure everybody that The Game will never be seen in the WWE again. This gains even more boos from the crowd but the Chairman merely ignores it. Vince says that he is once again the most powerful man in the entire of this company and he will not allow anyone to have more power than him ever again as long as he is alive. He goes on to remind the crowd that last night he stated he had a big announcement to make regarding the future of the WWE from here on out. Vince says he is going to waste no time in getting to this announcement and he is going to make it right now. Vince informs the crowd that every decision Triple H has made in the past year has been a mistake and Vince is here to rectify those mistakes. Vince starts off by reminding everyone that the last thing Vince was going to do before he lost control last year was fire John Cena. Vince says he did think about firing John tonight but has decided that would be foolish and has instead decided to keep John with the company. He goes on to say that one thing Triple H has done recently which was a mistake was hiring both Ric Flair and Roddy Piper as General Manager’s of RAW and Smackdown respectively. Both of these names get cheers upon their mention but for the rest of the statement, the crowd continue to boo. Vince laughs and says that he is going to fix those mistakes right now as he has come to a compromise. Vince continues to say that he is not going to fire these guys but instead will give them a little help to point them in the right direction. Vince states that he has assigned both brands Assistant General Manager’s and those two figures will ensure that the right decisions are made from the General Manager’s and not the wrong ones. Vince then informs of us of who those two figures are; Stephanie McMahon for RAW and Shane McMahon for Smackdown. There is major heat from the crowd at this announcement and Vince finds that he can no longer speak over them so instead chooses to drop the microphone and leave his announcement to sink into the crowd.]

[We open up outside of the General Manager’s office as Stephanie McMahon is seen strutting down the corridor. Stephanie reaches the office door and composes herself before opening the door and stepping in. Ric turns around as he hears the door open and looks surprised as Stephanie walks in. Stephanie asks Ric if he just heard what Vince said and Ric sighs before confirming that he did. Stephanie smiles before walking over to shake Ric’s hand but he just stares back at her and shakes his head. Ric tells Stephanie that he lost all respect for her last night when she turned on her husband the way she did. Ric reminds Stephanie that he and Triple H are close friends and he has spoke with him today and Triple H is far from happy. Stephanie merely laughs at this comment and tells Ric she no longer cares what he thinks because Stephanie knows she did the right thing last night; sticking by her family the same way everyone should. Ric tells Stephanie to keep telling herself that before turning his back on her and taking a seat on the sofa.]

[JTG goes straight on the attack when the bell rings, hitting Bryan with right after left to the head. Bryan staggers back and JTG goes to hit him over the head again but Bryan drops to the mat and smartly rolls out of the ring, holding his head as the blood stain begins to grow bigger. JTG doesn’t give Bryan any time to recuperate as he slides out of the ring after him and grabs him by the head, quickly proceeding to smash it into the apron. Bryan slumps down and has to hold onto the apron to keep himself on his feet, giving JTG to the chance to stomp away at Bryan. JTG pulls Bryan back upright and rolls him in the ring.

Ric tells both guys to stop or they will both suffer the consequences. Ric goes to speak but Stephanie McMahon walks out and tells Ric to hold on. Stephanie tells Ric that he can go backstage because he is not needed for this. Stephanie then turns to the two men in the ring as Ric reluctantly heads back to his office. Stephanie informs both guys that she has decided that since neither man won this match then both will face Dolph Ziggler at the Night Of Champions PPV for the Intercontinental Championship. This gets a loud pop as JTG begins to celebrate in the ring.]

Josh starts off by congratulating Punk on his massive win last night but then asks him what he has to say about what happened after the match. Punk grins at Josh and says that when he heard Stone Cold’s music last night, he knew that business was going to go down. Punk says that he knows every fan out there wants to see CM Punk versus ‘Stone Cold’ Steve Austin and at Wrestlemania XXIX they are going to get just that.

He throws his arms up into the air as Wade Barrett walks out onto the stage with his World Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder. Wade stares down at Cena in the ring and pats his Championship as the scene fades.]





[We come back live and CM Punk’s music hits. Punk walks out onto the stage with a massive grin on his face as the crowd are on their feet. Punk looks around at them before slowly proceeding down the ramp. Punk hops onto the apron and climbs to the second rope, shouting out to the crowd, before hopping down into the ring. Punk grabs a mic before walking into the centre of the ring and taking a seat with his legs crossed. Punk looks out to the crowd before beginning to speak. Punk says that last night he asserted himself as the Best Wrestler In The World when he pinned The Rock in the centre of the ring; something the great John Cena couldn’t do. Punk says that when Stone Cold came out after that and made the challenge for Wrestlemania, he knew he had to accept. He continues to say that when, not if, he defeats Stone Cold at Wrestlemania XXIX he will have proved himself against not one but two legends in the history of the WWE. Punk reminds everyone that this has never been done before and it will never be done again. Punk goes on to say that he may not be competing at Night Of Champions but he will be competing at Unforgiven and he will make sure that the match is for the World Heavyweight Championship because that is what his sights are now set on once again. Punk informs the crowd that if he still holds the World Championship come Wrestlemania then he will gladly put it on the line against Stone Cold. This gets a loud cheer and Punk goes to continue speaking but is drowned out by the sound of shattering glass. Stone Cold storms out onto the stage to massive cheers from the crowd. He continues on down the ramp, staring in the ring at Punk. Austin gets in the ring and grabs a mic before standing right in front of the now standing Punk. Austin tells Punk that last night he was pretty damn impressed by his performance against The Rock and it was because of this that he came down to the ring and issued the challenge for Wrestlemania. Austin tells Punk that he can talk all he wants but when it comes down to it he may be able to defeat The Rock but he will never beat Stone Cold. This gets a loud pop from the crowd and Austin goes to continue but Punk interrupts him and tells Austin that he needs to stop underestimating him. Punk says that The Rock did the same thing before their match at Summerslam and now look what happened to him; he got beat. Punk reminds Austin that the last time he competed in the WWE he got beat by The Rock so that means that by beating The Rock himself, Punk has asserted himself as the better wrestler between the two. Austin laughs at Punk but then drops the laugh and glares at Punk. Austin tells Punk that he sure as hell better never interrupt him again because if he does then he will Stunner his ass. Austin goes on to say that Punk may have asserted himself as the better wrestler but Austin has never called himself a wrestler. Austin tells Punk that he may be the better wrestler but Austin is the better fighter. Austin goes to continue this train of thought but again Punk interrupts him. Punk goes to begin his rebuttal but Austin doesn’t give him the chance. Austin boots Punk hard in the midsection before grabbing his head and nailing the Stone Cold Stunner. Austin gets to his feet and gives Punk the middle finger salute to major cheers from the crowd. Austin climbs up to the second rope and motions for his beer, getting three in return. Austin opens two of them and smashes them together before pouring them into his mouth, spilling quite a lot in the process. Austin discards of the empty cans before motioning for another three, which he gets. Austin jumps down and opens two of them, smashing them together, and drinking them as well. Austin then opens the last two and smashes them together before turning to Punk and pouring the contents of both cans onto him. Punk rolls away and drops to the outside, wiping the beer away from his face. Austin continues to pander to the crowd in the ring as the credits begin to roll.]
