...JG's RAW INSANITY!
That is right, Ladies and Gentlemen, the rumours are true...I'm back! Thanks to Real Time Mike Rickard for filling in these last few PPV's, but I'm back in place and with time to do the Real Time on the WWE PPVs. And after my last which was Wrestlemania, I'm back with another doozy as tonight is Night Of Champions, where each and every match is for a title and as the WWE keep saying, every title is on the line. We'll see about that. We'll see...
Well, I'm back and here we go!!! Our opening video is, naturally, all about Championships, with about everyone getting to say at least one word, although, naturally, HHH & Cena dominate thoughts. We then move onto Edge vs. Batista and the recent beatings that La Familia have dished out. Then we go back to HHH & Cena. They pro shoots off and we see the rather regal entrance way bedecked in drapery. Smackdown's JR & Foley introduce the show first off. We jump right to Justin Roberts who intorduces the opener...
The Miz & John Morrison vs. Finlay & Hornswaggle in a "I might not review this. I might just pray..." match for the WWE Tag Team Titles Morrison and Finlay start things off. Morrison is knocked down with a shouler and then downed with a european uppercut. Short arm clothesline for a long 1 count. Suplex-like slam sees Finlay put on a trapesius hold. However, Finlay's head is rammed into the corner, sending Finlay out. Morrison jumps out and get crothced on the apron. However, Miz distracts Finlay and Morrison attacks. The Champs grab Hornswaggle while FInlay is down. Hornswaggle shows he means busioness by getting ready to work, but he rolls out the way and Finlay clotheslines the champions before using Hornswaggle as a weapon. They both hit ass splashes to send the champs out the ring. Back in the ringMorrison is able to gain control and he tags in Miz. A doubel gutbuster scores a 2 count. Miz puts on a chinlock. Before the champs hit a lovely douible team in the corner that ends with a slingshot elbow for a 2 count.
Miz comes back in off the tag. However, Finlay counters with a atomic drop. Hornswaggle tags himself in and hit a hurricanrana, Stunner and a bulldog for a 2 count. Amazing. However, Morrison kicked the midget in the back, allowing the heels to regain control. Finlay runs over, but this just distracts the ref. Morrison is tagged and and he shoves Horny into the corner. The pair then mock Swaggle's size, but while on their knees, the little guy throws some shots. However, he's clotheslined by the pair as he went for the tag.
WINNERS & STILL CHAMPIONS - THE MIZ & JOHN MORRISON Next up is the US Title match...
Matt Hardy vs. Chavo Guerrero in a "FAMILY MEMBERS OF MORE CHARISMATIC WORKERS COLLIDE~!" match for the US Title
He worked it over using the ropes in the corner, before kicking the knee. He then wrapped it around the ringpost. Chavo pulled aweay the referee and Neely added more punishment to the knee, hitting it on the post again. In the middl eo fhte ring, Hardy's leg was continued to be worked on. Hardy fought out of it, but Guerrero went right back on him. Hardy hit a standing bulldog, but it didn't even get a 1 count. Instead, Chavo managed to get a cover for a short 2. Leg lock by Chavo, before pressing join on the knee joint. Hardy kicked Chavo off to the outside. However, Chavo hung him oon the tope rope. However, a Frog Splash missed and Hardy hit a clothesline. They began to exchange fists, with Hardy winning and hitting an elbow drop for a 2 count. Side Effect was blocked and Chavo went for a backslide. Hardy counters and hit a Side Effect for a 2 count. Hardy went to the second rope, and hit the elbow the the head, but he only scored a deuce form it. Back elbow in the corner saw Matt go up again, but Chavo pulled him off the ropes and put on a Single Leg Boston Crab. Hardy made the ropes from it Matt went for a Twist Of Fate, but that was blocked, although Hardy changed up to a DDT. Another Twist was agian block back onto the Single LEg Crab, this time in the middle of the ring.
WINNER & STILL CHAMPION - MATT HARDY!
Kane vs. Big Show vs. Mark Henry in a "Can Kane keep the ECW Title on RAW???" Triple Threat match for the ECW Title Kane went after his challengers right away, before he avoided a Henry charge, sending him into Big Show. Dropkick to the knee of Henry before Kane kicked him out the ring. However, Big Show then ran down the Big Red Machine. Big Show hit punches to the gut in the corner. Kane managed to hit a running DDT to Big Show, but it only scored a long 1 count. Big Show reversed a whip and sent Kane out to the floor. Henry watched over Kane. Kane looked to be hurt, so Henry & Big Show faced off in the ring, The ref did an X Sign, so it could be legit. A standoff went nowehre between the 2 in the ring. Henry put on a headlock, but a shoulderblock to Show saw him barely move. However, the same couldn't be said wwhen Big Show ran at Henry. A bodyslam followed as Doctor's raced out to check on Kane. Big Show worked over Henry in the corner, but a whip across was blocked and Henry threw fists. Big Show punched a running Henry to the mat while Kane kept trying to get up. Big Show went for a chokeslam, but it was blocked. Big Show & Henry clotheslined each other down, which rallied Kane, who climbed up to the top rope. he hit the flying clothesline to Henry and then smacked Big Show. He worked over both opponents until Henry caught Kane in a bearhug. Kane whipped Heny across and Big Show booted him down. They then hit a double chokeslam on Henry with each of them getting a 2 count out of it. The former tag champions began to duel it out. Kane scored with an enziguri and climbed back up top, but he jumped into a chokeslam. However, Kane kicked out as the hand came down for the three! Kane sat up and grabbed Show in a choke. Big Show hit something of an Angle Slam, scoring a close 2 off of that. Big Show, for whatever reason, climbed up top! Kane came across and suplexed Big SHow off the top. However, Mark Henry LITERALLY FLEW IN with a World's Strongest Splash on Kane for the three count!
WINNER & NEW ECW CHAMPION - MARK HENRY! Maria is backstage with Eve Torres. She wondered if he was going back with a title. Batista said he wouldn't be leaving empty handed. Cena stepped on screen and welcomed him back to RAW. Cena noted that if Batista he might not be the only champion. Then CM PUnk stepped in, saying he hoped to see both titles come back, hinting he might use the MITB shot.
Cody Rhodes & Bob Holly vs. Ted Dibiase Jr & ??? in a "Another "Mystery Opponent" match goes by, and yet again, Dennis Stamp wasn't booked..." match for the World Tag Team Titles They started the match with Ted on his own. Cody started off for his team. However, Teddy wanted Bob Holly to start things off, which Holly was only too happy to oblige. However Cody IMMEDIATELY DDT'ed Holly and started to laugh. Ted introduced his partner...CODY RHODES! Rhodes tagged in DiBiase and he put the Million Dollar Dream on Holly before slamming him back for the three count!
WINNERS & NEW CHAMPIONS - TED DIBIASE & CODY RHODES! Cole & Lawler were back on the mic, as COle sent it to Todd Girsham, whi was in a Skybox with JBL. JBL said he owned the Skybox before asking why this PPV was being held in this city and JBL wasn't in a match. Todd right noted he wasn't a champion. He's not...but I know who is...
(If only I was psychic or had time to photoshop something...) JBL grabbed the mic and put over his business accomplishments and said with Vince out, he was the richest guy in the company. JBl said he couldn't see any championship banners and that Dallas had done nothing but produce failures, like the Cowboys, who choked to the New York Football Giants, who were from his home city. His New York Giants. He said he was Texas's favourite New Yorker, and as far as having a title, it's not "if", it's "when".
Chris Jericho vs. ??? in a "What is this? A Night Of Champions or a Night Of Mystery Opponents?" match for the Intercontinental Title Then his opponent came out...
...
Jericho drove Kofi into the side of the ring a couple of times before rolling him back in the ring. Shoulders wer driven into Kingston's gut, before he was whipped, hard, across the ring. Kingston picked himself on the apron and blcoked suplex attempts before teasing his own. However Jericho eventually scored with one for a 2 count. Jericho it a backbreaker and stretched his opponent. Kingston kneed out of it. Before he got back to his feet though, Jericho hit a running dropkick. Y2J then gave Kofi a knee to the back while Kofi was propped up by the ropes. Jericho then put on an abdominal stretch. The ref checked on him a couple of times, but Kingston rallied and armdragged his way out of it. However, Jericho sent Kofi into the ropes, choking him there. Kofi was placed up top, and Jericho joined him for a back superplex. However, Kofi turned in mid-air with a crossbody, scoring a 2 count.

However, it wasn't without cost to Michaels as the doctors rushed to ringisde to check on HBK. Jericho saw Michaels was still there and scowled. If looks could kill... We went backstage to vicki and the wedding planner. Edge was there too. The Rated Rmy came in and they talked about the match. Dumbass Number 1 mentioned HHH's help on Friday, suggesting that they might have gotten HHH on their side. Edge took exception to this, noting all of his acccomplishments, saying he didn't need anyone's help. He said he'd leave Batista beaten and empty-handed. Back to Cole & lawler. They pimped Gillette again, before showing a commerical for Gillette with Vince & John Cena. I found it funny... Katie blocked a headscissors and sent Mickie's shouder into the turnbuckle. Katie scored a 2 count, before barring the arm. Paul told his sister to rip the arm off. Nice. Mickie fought back to her feet and hit a Thesz Press with punches. Armbar takedown socred a 2 count for Katie. The ref continually forced Katie back out of the corner. However, in another corner, Mickie scored with the headscissors and a couple of clotheslines. Mickie snapmared Katie and hit a forearm for 2. Mickie went for her DDT, but Katie grabbed the arm and barred it, looking for the submission. Mickie rolled through and then managed to stand up and armdrag out of it. However, Burchill sent her opponent's shoulder into the corner again. Back suplex was countered and Mickie hit her DDT for the three count! WINNER & STILL CHAMPION - MICKIE JAMES We cut to a video of Edge banishing Undertaker and whatnot leading up to the title match. Batista drove a shoulder into the gut of Edge a couple of times as he came back in, but Edge got a drop toe hold and a swinging neckbreaker for a 2 count. Edge then put on a chinlock. Then Chavo Guerrero's music played and Vicki's pephew came out in a referee's shirt. As he came out, Batista grabbed Vicki. Batista picked her up and tossed her to the floor onto the Familia. However, Edge clocked Batista with the belt and Chavo dove in and made the three count! WINNER & STILL CHAMPION - EDGE Suplex by The Game was followed by an elbow drop. HHH took Cena and whipped him hard into the corner, with Cena's back smacking the turnbuckles. HHH then did it again into the opposite corner for a 2 count. They exchanhed fists, but Cena ran into HHH's feet while coming out the corner. HHH came off the second rope into Cena's shoe and he began to build momentum. He hit the Protobomb and then went for the Five Knuckle Shuffle. However, Cena took too much time and HHH tripped him up. HHH then hit the Harley Race high-knee. That was followed by a knee to the face. HHH went for the Pedigree, but Cena blocked it and hit the Throwback (as called by Cole!). Cena decided to climb up top as well, and he hit the leg drop the the head. Cena looked for the STFU, but HHH kicked him off. Cena ducked a shot and hit another Protobomb and again set for the Five Knuckle Shuffle. However again, HHH countered, this time getting up and hitting another high knee. Spinebuster by the champion. HHH again looked to finish, but again, Cena saw it coming and Cena sent HHH up and over to the floor. HHH immediately grabbed his knee when he hit the floor and Coel & Lawler didn't like the look of it. However, HHH dragged himself back in the ring to break the count, but HHH didnt' get back in.
