Overview:
Punk enters the arena and talks about his histroy at this arena along with last night's match. He talks about Awesome Truth interfering, as Triple H soon comes out to confront him. Triple H then talks about 10-Ten WWE Champion John Cena and Alberto Del Rio's rematch along with Punk's rematch. Triple H then says that because of the two rematches at hand, there will be a Triple Threat Hell in a Cell for the WWE Championship at the next Pay-Per-View. Following that Triple H says he'll go to war with Punk one more time. Punk then talks about conspiracies while John Lauriniatis comes out to interrupt Punk and Triple H. Punk, then points out Lauriniatis is pulling all the strings now which we all know he is doing that. Triple H then tells off John Lauriniatis, and how he'll get to the bottom of this BS. Triple H also ensues that someone will get fired!
Raw's first match on the card is an 8-Man Tag Team match. The teams were Sheamus, Justin Gabrial, Air Boom against Christian, Wade Barrett, David Otunga, and McGillicuty. Sheamus' team begins to do most the work in the opening seconds before Christian's team begins to isolate Evan Bourne from his team. Team Christian is tagging in and out making an effective team. Evan tags in Sheamus and that leads to all 8 men getting involved, leading to Sheamus picking up the win for his team by destroying David Otunga sending a message to Christian. This 8-Man Tag Team match, is short and sweet, that could've gone a few more minutes. Backstage Alberto Del Rio, tries to tell Triple H how to do his job and Triple H puts him in his place.
Our second match has Alberto Del Rio, being announced out by Ricardo. His opponent is none other that John.....MORRISON! Had you going there for a minute. Anyways Del Rio goes right to work on Morrison's arm making him tap out to the Cross Armbreaker armbar within mere minutes from the match beginning. After that we cut right to a commerical break, following the break thou we return to Hugh Jackman coming out to promote "Real Steel" and tries to get the crowd pumped. Just he's cut off by Vickie Guererro who tries to hit on him with Ziggler right behind her. Ziggler then tries to show off and boast about winning at Night of Champions to Jackmam. Ziggler then starts mouthing off more to him and says he has a guy to face Ziggler, where Jackman then runs backstage as people chant for Zac Ryder. Along with that Awesome Truth arrives and runs into Lauriniatis.
We comeback to Raw with Sin Cara(Mystico) facing off with Cody Rhodes, with Sin Cara(Hunico) showing up too. Cody bails from the ring and the two Sin Caras battle about. It is amazing bount of ariel attacks, leaving Sin Cara(Mystico) on top for the night. Then backstage Awesome Truth try to suck up to Triple H and then he fines them for the attack on the referee. Following that he puts Awesome Truth in a match against Cena and Punk. After a short break JR finds out Randy Orton invoked his rematch at Hell in a Cell before introducing Mark Henry the World Heavyweight Champion for their interview. They talk about how no one believed in Mark Henry, or how no one apoligized to him when he finally made it. Mark Henry then tries assaulting JR where Jerry "the King" Lawler comes to the save. The King tries to fight back against Mark Henry and fails big time, as in leading to him getting slammed through the announce table.
While Jerry "the King" Lawler is helped backstaged, Kelly Kelly and Eve make their way to the ring. Their opponents are Natalya and Beth Pheonix who beat down Eve in the opening minutes of the match. Somehow this match ends with barely any tags, while Eve steals the win with a roll up on Natalya. Backstage Hugh Jackman confronts Zac Ryder calls him delusional and out of his mind. After a commerical break, Dolph Ziggler awaits in the ring with Vickie Guerrero as Zac Ryder and Hugh Jackman enter the arena. Ryder gets an early lead, but Dolph begins to dominate Ryder. Ziggler continues to assault Ryder, with him geting in some majorily needed shots. Vickie Guerrero gets kicked from ringside, and Hugh sucker punches Ziggler letting Ryder land a Rough Ryder to pick up the win.
Backstage Vickie watches a promo for Jack Swagger before running into him. They talk Vickie's new stable and Dolph slulks in his defeat. Then CM Punk and Cena run into each other and talk about stuff they got in common. Cena talks about how him and CM Punk are making history this year, along with Punk saying to be a WWE Champion to be fired. After that we get a promo for Hell in the Cell in general. The promo, just clips almost the best moments together to set up the Pay-Per View. Now we get to the Main Event, where Awesome Truth tell Cleaveland it sucks. Uh, Miz don't you live in Cleaveland?! Whatever, Cena and Punk burst on the scene and the match gets rolling.
Cena and Miz start it off, with Punk and R-Truth quickly tagging in. Before the break it's back to Cena and Miz, and when we return Cena is isolated from Punk. Eventually Punk gets in along with R-Truth leading to him getting a GTS on R-Truth. After the match, Triple H comes out and fires Awesome Truth which leads to the Raw Roster throwing them out of the building.
Review:
Alright well this Raw was alright and fine, I didn't have many issues with it at all. I enjoyed the whole 8-Man Tag Team match, which like I said was short and sweet, but could've maybe gone longer. Del Rio, slaughtering Morrison was fun cause well it was random and no one really cares for Morrison these days. The promos for Sin Cara vs Sin Cara is stepping up and becoming better I can't wait to see these two go at it in the near future. Then Mark Henry interview and Diva Match is skipable and ok, while Zac Ryder, Hugh Jackman, Vickie Guerrero, and Dolph Ziggler stole the whole show. Zac Ryder and Dolph Ziggler are the best at wrestling and entertaining, also since they're friends they'll be able to put on better matches. As for the Main Event it was all foreseeable except Awesome Truth being fired ironically, just made it "WOW" and "LMAO" watching them freak out! Anyways this left me saying that this Raw hit a 3.5-Star Rating.

WWE Night of Champions
Overview:
The Night of Champions opening promo sets up the whole night. The PPV starts right off with the WWE Tag Team Championship Match, Air Boom vs Awesome Truth. Awesome Truth entered the arena singing "What's Up? You Suck!" The Match opens up with Air Boom, actually making me believe they're good together. I actually think that this match was just to set them up. Anyways Air Boom kicks the crap out of Awesome Truth leading both members suicide diving out onto Awesome Truth. Eventually Miz and R-Truth begin to isolate Evan Bourne, and begin to pick up some steam. Evan gets a chance and tags Kofi in hitting the Boom Drop and SOS on Miz. Miz, kicks out fast and goes for the Man-tastic/Snapmare Driver. Kofi tries to get a break for Evan and Evan tags in. Evan just blasts Awesome Truth down and for Miz almost wins the match, but for once the dirty tactics go against them and the referee misses them completely leading to Awesome Truth to get DQ'ed.

Most of the match has Henry beating down Orton with him trying to fight back. Orton eventually hits several DDTs, before Mark Henry like injures Orton's leg making Orton unable to use the RKO with Henry flipping him into the World's Strongest Slam. Mark Henry wins the match and first World Championship, the crowd isn't really approving even thou most people wanted him to evenutally win it. Mark gets the mic and goes on how he will continue to dominate.

Before the WWE Championship we get a promo of Champions of the ages. The promo eventually cuts to Alberto Del Rio cashing in on CM Punk. Then Cena bashing Del Rio on not being a great WWE Champion. Finally we cut to the entrances with Del Rio arguing with Ricardo about where was the car, as Cena enters with the car.

Triple H gets another Pedigree, the third of the night allowing him to pick up the win finale. After the match Triple H throws a "Suck It" at Punk!
Review:
Alright well the Pay-Per-View was pretty great and it could've been better. The opening matches were actually great. The whole way to promote the new guys or the best work horses on the card. The Tag Team match tried to improve or show how Air Boom can be a great tag team. Now as for the second match I wanted Ted DiBiase to beat Cody Rhodes so he could finally be somebody again. Just the endding to the first two matches sucked, a DQ and a stupid roll up. The third match was amazing, that Fatal 4-Way could've maybe stole the show if it went longer and was near to the main events. Also the outcome of the match was great, Ziggler retained and it made me a happy camper cause Ziggler is the man!
The rest of the night was much better and slightly sadder. The World Heavyweight Championship seemed like Orton might some how beat Henry, yet he sadly didn't. Henry just mostly beat down Orton and beat the crap out of him, which was like how the Divas' match went just ended like Orton's should've. Now as for that having Beth losing in her hometown pissed me off. I wanted the Glamazon to destroy Kelly Kelly at Night of Champions in Buffalo! Following that Super Cena jumped back to being King of the Mountain in the WWE, and for once I can approve this cause I just don't like Del Rio that much. Now finally we get to the Main Event! Triple H and Punk beat the crap out of each other, then Awesome Truth kicked their ass and finally Kevin Nash came out of nowhere to end the match! With all this happening it made the night really enjoyable. Somethings to point out are Ziggler's the man, Henry is a Champion finally, Beth got screwed, Super Cena is back and Triple H showed Punk why he is the Game! End resulting being, Night of Champions was a 7.5 out of 10-Star Rating!

Review:
Smackdown started off pretty good,and actually made me really enjoy this episode. The whole intro with Edge's return leading to Cody Rhodes getting attacked by Ted DiBiase was awesome. I really enjoyed that now Ted might finally have a chance cause I've always had a liking for Ted Dibiase. The fact he's been getting crapped on by the WWE is amazingly huge Bull Crap cause I believe Ted is better than Cody. Anyways the opening match with Bryan and Sin Cara(Hunico) was great just shouldn't end with a 5-Count DQ. Following that is the little Sin Cara vs Sin Cara face-off which should've been a brawl if the suits were different. Then Trish Stratus' little show up backstage was cool, then Beth Pheonix destroying AJ was cool but got old. Where as the Tag Team match with Sheamus was awesome cause Sheamus just kicks everyone's ass. As for the end of the night it went all to hell, until the Cutting Edge that's where it got good again. Just it didn't end well for Orton, as he got beat down again along with the roster. That whole brawl was just to keep marketing Mark Henry being the World's Strongest Man! As a result that made this Smackdown just a pure 4-Star Rating, which was great due to recent weeks of failures.

Review:
The opening promo with Del Rio, Bret Hart, and John Cena was pretty good. I found some great humor with it. The John Laurinaitis interruption thou was a huge pain in the ass since that guy is such an ass! Anyways the matches were alright and okay. They could've been better and much more entertaining seeming that Night of Champions is this Sunday. The opening match is just more set up for Ziggler and Swagger, then following that we get more focus on Awesome Truth. Miz and R-Truth is not a great tag team just cause in recent years R-Truth is becoming annoying mostly within just this year alone. For Jerry "the King" Lawler's match, I wanted him to pick Zac Ryder again just cause Ryder is Awesome! Anyways he got Sheamus, which lead to a giant beatdown for Otunga and McGillicuty in a way only Sheamus can do.
Then as for John Laurinaitis' match he made, that was slightly a joke since we all knew Hart was gonna pick up the win making Ricardo tap out. As for Kelly Kelly's I just wish she would've beat up Vickie a bit longer, just cause who doesn't want Kelly Kelly just taking up sometime each week on Raw or Smackdown?! Anyways for the Smackdown, Champion vs Champion rematch I saw the end of the match coming but knew Cody would still get his ass beat all about the ring. Following the match we get to the final face-off, where it's all talk and hype. The promo was great but didn't have enough heat just hype until the Mic Shot! The cheap shot is really gonna get the War going at Night of Champions. But as for tonight, Raw was just over the top annoying for the fact the matches didn't truly stand out and the promos didn't really create alot of heat and just hype! So I got to give this Raw a 3.5-Stars!

Henry slams Orton down then, places a chair on his throat and sits down on him while taunting him.
Review:
Smackdown was slightly horrible, cause I didn't catch much of my attention. I thought the matches could've been greatly better. The promos also weren't even watchable at most times. Like this was just barely reaching a 3-Star Rating, and like probably hit a 2.5-Star Rating. The matches that are worth mentioning as the better matches were Barrett/Sheamus and Orton/Rhodes. Those two seemed to be great matches, just every time Barrett/Sheamus meet they've always ended horribly. I want the UK'ers to beat the living hell out of them. As for the matches that could've been greater should've been Henry/Jackson and Kelly/Natalya. My biggest complaints were they seemed too short and didn't have alot of counters or reversals. The Henry/Jackson match I wanted a battle of monsters not a Fat Strong man overpowering a Dominating guy like Jackson. As for the Divas, Kelly gave Natalya a run for her money earlier on but it didn't switch back and forth to gain a pop from the crowd. I really want the Divas to really step it up and be enough to rival some of the better Divas matches of yesterday. That's why this SmackDown hit a low of 2.5-Stars!

WWE Raw 9/5
Overview:
Raw opens with a promo for the CM Punk, Triple H and Kevin Nash feud. The promo shows all the backstory that has happened since Summerslam. Leading into Raw itself with Punk making his entrance into the arena. Punk then goes on about is issues with Nash and Triple H. Then Punk called Triple H but got Nash instead, where Punk insults Nash and calls him Super Shredder...HA! Nash then says he could beat Punk, eventually leading to Nash walking to the ring which leads to Triple H's entrance. Nash then trys to force Triple H to make him have a match with Punk, where Triple H finds out who started this whole mess. Triple H, then reveals this was all Nash's plan and crap, that he broke in and sent himself the text. Ironically this leads to Triple H siding with CM Punk. Nash then thinks it's about the push from Smackdown, all leading to Triple H firing Kevin Nash while Punk laughs at him.
John Laurniatis, then meets Kevin Nash at his car and they leave arena. Following that Air Boom makes their entrance to face Jinhder Mahal and Great Khali. Evan Bourne is dominated and cut off from Kofi for the opening minutes of the match. Kofi Kingston gets tagged in, and leads to Jinder and Khali having tag team issues. Khali hits Jinder with another chop Kofi gets Evan tagged back in and lands an Airbourne for the pinfall. Following the match, Kelly Kelly comes down to join commentary while Eve was ready to face Beth Phoenix as Natalya also joined commentary. Beth dominates Eve while Kelly argues with Natalya. Beth hits a Glam Slam somewhere during the match and beats Eve. After the match Natalya jumps Kelly Kelly before joining Beth in the ring.
We come back to Raw and we have Drew McIntyre talking with Christian before Alberto Del Rio shows up. They then start talking about John Cena, where they're now actting all buddy, ironically I don't remember when they ever liked each other in the script. The next match is R-Truth vs CM Punk, while R-Truth is accompanied by the Miz as they head to the ring. R-Truth comes to ring questioning what makes CM Punk different from him, while the crowd mocks him continously before finally the Miz joins him. Miz then talks on about Triple H, and says Truth & himself will face Air Boom at Night of Champions for the Tag Team Championships. The match opens up with the guys grappling about with Punk dominating the early minutes. R-Truth gets out of Punk's holds and locks in a few of his own before Punk tries and a successful early counter as R-Truth goes outside of the ring. Punk follows up with a Suicide Dive, but takes his eye off of R-Truth for meer seconds to tell off Miz as the match goes back into the ring. R-Truth takes back the match and throws Punk outside the ring where Miz hits a sneaky Chop Block to Punk's left knee. R-Truth get Punk back in the ring and works on the knee, for the next few minutes. This ends with Punk getting some non-successful roll ups before R-Truth knocks him down a peg. Punk begins battling out leading into the final mintues, where Punk unleashes everything on R-Truth and tries to end the match before Miz interferes where he's throw out of the match allowing Punk to truly end it with the GTS. After the match Triple H hits the ring, as Punk still questions Triple H and Nash. Triple H retorts to saying the match has been changed to a NO-DQ match, I'd perfer maybe "I Quit", "Last Man Standing" or "Hell in a Cell." Following Triple H's stipulation Punk asks him to accept his stipulation, if Punk wins Triple H re-signs. Backstage Wade Barrett chats with Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins, before Del Rio shows up. Barrett and Del Rio then chat up about John Cena and such.
The next match is David Otunga and Michael McGillicuty challenging Jerry "the King" Lawler to a tag team match. His tag team partner was none other than the Long Island Iced-Z, Zac Ryder! Following the announcement we got clips of Zac's youtube show and I laughed cause they were my favorite moments! As Zac makes his entrance he chose his Broski of the week while Cole is a douche and talks smack about Youtubers, uh does this remind you of anyone if so check RDM's blog. Anyways Ryder is beaten down by Otunga and McGillicuty for the early mintues before tagging in Lawler who hits a quick flying fist then tags in Ryder who hits the Rough Ryder and grabs the win! Backstage Del Rio, continues to look for someone to fight Cena for him and that was Dolph Ziggler but he turns him down as the Bella Twins show up. Then Del Rio, gets under Ziggler's skin before leaving him as we cut to Orton showing up on Raw.
Randy Orton makes his entrance in the arena, as he awaits his opponent Heath Slater. Orton pummels Heath in the opening minutes, and practically just makes him is bitch for this match. Orton just demolished Slater with practically move he had but the Punt! Then backstage Zac Ryder is chatting up with John Cena for Z True Story, while Cena then makes a joke towards the Rock. After the joke Cena, heads to the ring. Once John Cena hit the ring, he cuts straight to Alberto Del Rio and his fear of him. Then Ricardo Rodriguez comes out to announce WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio's entrance, where he stays up by the car to avoid Cena. Del Rio then talks about sidelining Rey Mysterio, then chats about Night of Champions. Hell if Cena wasn't No. 1 Contender, I'd cheer Del Rio or Punk if it was Punk instead. Anyways Cena is attacked by Barrett, Swagger, Ziggler and Christian before being saved by A-ry, Sheamus and John Morrison as Smackdown GM Teddy Long shows up to make an 8-Man Tag Team Elmination Match for our Main Event. OH MY GOD, THESE SUPERSHOWS ARE BECOMING AMAZING CLUSTER FUCKS OF RANDOM AWESOMENESS!
The match starts off with A-Ry and Barrett for each team. Morrison and Ziggler get tagged in and the match steps up a notch as Morrison cleans out the other team. Swagger tags himself in and locks his Ankle Lock on Morrison while Ziggler locked in a Sleeper, Morrison eventually taps out. While Morrison leaves the ring, Vickie Guerrero comes down to ringside. After a commerical break the team of Barrett, Ziggler, Swagger and Christian have A-Ry cut off from the others. A-Ry makes a small break but is unsuccessful to get in tag, while Ziggler and Swagger have more issues. Swagger then eliminates A-Ry via submission leaving just Sheamus and Cena. Swagger tags out and Barrett jumps in, a battle of the UK'ers begins. Sheamus dominates Barrett before missing the Brogue Kick but hits it a second time eliminating Barrett. Christian tries to pin Sheamus after a Spear and fails. Christian slaps Sheamus in the face and the two are counted out of the match as they brawl outside. Now the match comes down to Cena facing Ziggler and Swagger. Cena takes them on amazingly and goes nuts before the numbers get him. Swagger and Ziggler now are teaming quite well to beat Cena at this point. The crowd goes crazy into the "Let's Go Cena" and "Cena Sucks" chants, I actually think it's cause everyone loves Dolph! Cena powers out and hits Spin-Out Powerbombs on the both of them leading into a double 5-Knuckle Shuffle. Ziggler tags in and the two argue leading to Cena hitting the AA on Ziggler and eliminates as Swagger trys to make Cena tap. Cena counters to the STF and get Swagger to submit as Del Rio trys to sneak attack Cena and falls into Cena's AA as the night ends.
Review:
Well Raw opened up great but had a slow start for the 1st of its matches. As for the opening promo, when Punk called Kevin Nash the Super Shredder it was like the highlight of the night and I enjoyed it. Then skipping the Tag Team Champions' match and the Divas' match, we come to the CM Punk/R-Truth match and it was good. It could've been better maybe but I don't ever expect too much from R-Truth at times. Just the fact that Punk still won the match due to the Miz helping R-Truth was great. It was completely a good showing!
Now we get to the second highlight of the night, which is the tag team match with Jerry "the King" Lawler and Zac Ryder. That was a great match but just having Ryder on Raw is great television. The Orton match could've been better but they saved Ziggler for the Main Event which was a good idea, I like Ziggler he's one of my favorites in the business no matter what I used to think about him. Now as for the third and final highlight, it was the Main Event!
The whole night Del Rio kept asking guys to help him beat down Cena and it seemed most weren't going to help Del Rio so I thought Dolph Ziggler was the sorry sap to fall for Del Rio's tricks. Ironically all the guys grouped up and attack Cena, leading to his allies to come to his save and Teddy to troll out and make a match. At first I didn't see it being Elimination style at all but it happened and it made the whole match even better! Ironically the way the avoid have the guys from the UK having feuds is annoy to me I want these guys to just brawl like I know they can. Also the fact that want to push Ziggler to go solo and maybe face is cool too, just some of the eliminations it the match were bad. I got to say A-Ry after Morrison was completely a jobber to him than the rookie, along with that Sheamus and Christian both were counted out was a pain in the ass. Anyways the match was a great Elimination for live tv and I couldn't hope for too much more unless it went for like 20 to 30 minutes. Finally by the end of the night I had to rate this Raw a 4-Star Rating for the opening promo, Ryder's match and the amazing Main Event!

Nash then says he could beat Punk, eventually leading to Nash walking to the ring which leads to Triple H's entrance. Nash then trys to force Triple H to make him have a match with Punk, where Triple H finds out who started this whole mess. Triple H, then reveals this was all Nash's plan and crap, that he broke in and sent himself the text. Ironically this leads to Triple H siding with CM Punk. Nash then thinks it's about the push from Smackdown, all leading to Triple H firing Kevin Nash while Punk laughs at him.
John Laurniatis, then meets Kevin Nash at his car and they leave arena. Following that Air Boom makes their entrance to face Jinhder Mahal and Great Khali. Evan Bourne is dominated and cut off from Kofi for the opening minutes of the match. Kofi Kingston gets tagged in, and leads to Jinder and Khali having tag team issues. Khali hits Jinder with another chop Kofi gets Evan tagged back in and lands an Airbourne for the pinfall. Following the match, Kelly Kelly comes down to join commentary while Eve was ready to face Beth Phoenix as Natalya also joined commentary. Beth dominates Eve while Kelly argues with Natalya. Beth hits a Glam Slam somewhere during the match and beats Eve. After the match Natalya jumps Kelly Kelly before joining Beth in the ring.
We come back to Raw and we have Drew McIntyre talking with Christian before Alberto Del Rio shows up. They then start talking about John Cena, where they're now actting all buddy, ironically I don't remember when they ever liked each other in the script. The next match is R-Truth vs CM Punk, while R-Truth is accompanied by the Miz as they head to the ring. R-Truth comes to ring questioning what makes CM Punk different from him, while the crowd mocks him continously before finally the Miz joins him. Miz then talks on about Triple H, and says Truth & himself will face Air Boom at Night of Champions for the Tag Team Championships. The match opens up with the guys grappling about with Punk dominating the early minutes. R-Truth gets out of Punk's holds and locks in a few of his own before Punk tries and a successful early counter as R-Truth goes outside of the ring. Punk follows up with a Suicide Dive, but takes his eye off of R-Truth for meer seconds to tell off Miz as the match goes back into the ring. R-Truth takes back the match and throws Punk outside the ring where Miz hits a sneaky Chop Block to Punk's left knee. R-Truth get Punk back in the ring and works on the knee, for the next few minutes. This ends with Punk getting some non-successful roll ups before R-Truth knocks him down a peg. Punk begins battling out leading into the final mintues, where Punk unleashes everything on R-Truth and tries to end the match before Miz interferes where he's throw out of the match allowing Punk to truly end it with the GTS. After the match Triple H hits the ring, as Punk still questions Triple H and Nash. Triple H retorts to saying the match has been changed to a NO-DQ match, I'd perfer maybe "I Quit", "Last Man Standing" or "Hell in a Cell." Following Triple H's stipulation Punk asks him to accept his stipulation, if Punk wins Triple H re-signs. Backstage Wade Barrett chats with Tyler Reks and Curt Hawkins, before Del Rio shows up. Barrett and Del Rio then chat up about John Cena and such.
The next match is David Otunga and Michael McGillicuty challenging Jerry "the King" Lawler to a tag team match. His tag team partner was none other than the Long Island Iced-Z, Zac Ryder! Following the announcement we got clips of Zac's youtube show and I laughed cause they were my favorite moments! As Zac makes his entrance he chose his Broski of the week while Cole is a douche and talks smack about Youtubers, uh does this remind you of anyone if so check RDM's blog. Anyways Ryder is beaten down by Otunga and McGillicuty for the early mintues before tagging in Lawler who hits a quick flying fist then tags in Ryder who hits the Rough Ryder and grabs the win! Backstage Del Rio, continues to look for someone to fight Cena for him and that was Dolph Ziggler but he turns him down as the Bella Twins show up. Then Del Rio, gets under Ziggler's skin before leaving him as we cut to Orton showing up on Raw.
Randy Orton makes his entrance in the arena, as he awaits his opponent Heath Slater. Orton pummels Heath in the opening minutes, and practically just makes him is bitch for this match. Orton just demolished Slater with practically move he had but the Punt! Then backstage Zac Ryder is chatting up with John Cena for Z True Story, while Cena then makes a joke towards the Rock. After the joke Cena, heads to the ring. Once John Cena hit the ring, he cuts straight to Alberto Del Rio and his fear of him. Then Ricardo Rodriguez comes out to announce WWE Champion Alberto Del Rio's entrance, where he stays up by the car to avoid Cena. Del Rio then talks about sidelining Rey Mysterio, then chats about Night of Champions. Hell if Cena wasn't No. 1 Contender, I'd cheer Del Rio or Punk if it was Punk instead. Anyways Cena is attacked by Barrett, Swagger, Ziggler and Christian before being saved by A-ry, Sheamus and John Morrison as Smackdown GM Teddy Long shows up to make an 8-Man Tag Team Elmination Match for our Main Event. OH MY GOD, THESE SUPERSHOWS ARE BECOMING AMAZING CLUSTER FUCKS OF RANDOM AWESOMENESS!
The match starts off with A-Ry and Barrett for each team. Morrison and Ziggler get tagged in and the match steps up a notch as Morrison cleans out the other team. Swagger tags himself in and locks his Ankle Lock on Morrison while Ziggler locked in a Sleeper, Morrison eventually taps out. While Morrison leaves the ring, Vickie Guerrero comes down to ringside. After a commerical break the team of Barrett, Ziggler, Swagger and Christian have A-Ry cut off from the others. A-Ry makes a small break but is unsuccessful to get in tag, while Ziggler and Swagger have more issues. Swagger then eliminates A-Ry via submission leaving just Sheamus and Cena. Swagger tags out and Barrett jumps in, a battle of the UK'ers begins. Sheamus dominates Barrett before missing the Brogue Kick but hits it a second time eliminating Barrett. Christian tries to pin Sheamus after a Spear and fails. Christian slaps Sheamus in the face and the two are counted out of the match as they brawl outside. Now the match comes down to Cena facing Ziggler and Swagger. Cena takes them on amazingly and goes nuts before the numbers get him. Swagger and Ziggler now are teaming quite well to beat Cena at this point. The crowd goes crazy into the "Let's Go Cena" and "Cena Sucks" chants, I actually think it's cause everyone loves Dolph! Cena powers out and hits Spin-Out Powerbombs on the both of them leading into a double 5-Knuckle Shuffle. Ziggler tags in and the two argue leading to Cena hitting the AA on Ziggler and eliminates as Swagger trys to make Cena tap. Cena counters to the STF and get Swagger to submit as Del Rio trys to sneak attack Cena and falls into Cena's AA as the night ends.
Review:
Well Raw opened up great but had a slow start for the 1st of its matches. As for the opening promo, when Punk called Kevin Nash the Super Shredder it was like the highlight of the night and I enjoyed it. Then skipping the Tag Team Champions' match and the Divas' match, we come to the CM Punk/R-Truth match and it was good. It could've been better maybe but I don't ever expect too much from R-Truth at times. Just the fact that Punk still won the match due to the Miz helping R-Truth was great. It was completely a good showing!
Now we get to the second highlight of the night, which is the tag team match with Jerry "the King" Lawler and Zac Ryder. That was a great match but just having Ryder on Raw is great television. The Orton match could've been better but they saved Ziggler for the Main Event which was a good idea, I like Ziggler he's one of my favorites in the business no matter what I used to think about him. Now as for the third and final highlight, it was the Main Event!
The whole night Del Rio kept asking guys to help him beat down Cena and it seemed most weren't going to help Del Rio so I thought Dolph Ziggler was the sorry sap to fall for Del Rio's tricks. Ironically all the guys grouped up and attack Cena, leading to his allies to come to his save and Teddy to troll out and make a match. At first I didn't see it being Elimination style at all but it happened and it made the whole match even better! Ironically the way the avoid have the guys from the UK having feuds is annoy to me I want these guys to just brawl like I know they can. Also the fact that want to push Ziggler to go solo and maybe face is cool too, just some of the eliminations it the match were bad. I got to say A-Ry after Morrison was completely a jobber to him than the rookie, along with that Sheamus and Christian both were counted out was a pain in the ass. Anyways the match was a great Elimination for live tv and I couldn't hope for too much more unless it went for like 20 to 30 minutes. Finally by the end of the night I had to rate this Raw a 4-Star Rating for the opening promo, Ryder's match and the amazing Main Event!
