Preview for the Next Show

Over the past few weeks we have been getting signs and signs of a mysterious someone that was brought back to WAW by Vince and is returning to the Royal Rumble....Who can it be? What can it be? The superstars on the roster though don't seem to care as they all have a claim to fame as to why they will win it.....Will we get some more information as to what it is that is coming back?

Over the past three weeks John Bradshaw Layfeild has been recruting what seems to be a new faction with him being the leader, three weeks ago he had the help of Gangrel and Kevin Thorn the Brood to beat the Undertaker and last week he got himself the aid of MVP to advance in the tournament against Samoa Joe? What is happening? Who is next? and this is looking really well for JBL when he takes on RVD this week can he overcome the odds?

Colt Cabana this week came out with a mission and purpose to make an impact as soon as he arrived on the show and he did just that by beating Shawn Michaels on the mat 1.2.3 Shawn Michaels the first ever WAW Heavyweight Champion was stunned and asked for a rematch at the Royal Rumble to shut this young kid up- or atleast try to ...... How will the aftermath be?

Match – 1 AJ Styles & Evan Bourne vs. Muhammad Hassan & Shelton Benjamin
Tag Team Contest

Evan Bourne and Shelton Benjamin start this match up, Shelton Benjamin walks up to the newest member of the roster Evan Bourne and gets right in his face he pokes him in the shoulder and tells him that he is the Gold Standard and Shelton Benjamin really shows his cocky side early in this match up, He then pushes Evan back at the ropes and Evan stops at the ropes Shelton Benjamin is looking at the crowd with his arms out wide and is getting heat from the crowd....Evan Bourne runs at Shelton Benjamin and elbows him in the side of the head a running forearm shot which sends Shelton Benjamin wobbling back a couple of steps Shelton Benjamin rakes the eyes of Bourne instantly and makes Evan momentarily blinded- Evan Bourne then gets his body sent thrown into the opposition's corner where Hassan is and Benjamin kicks Bourne in the gut and then tags in his tag team partner for this match up Muhammad Hassan. Muhammad Hassan comes into the ring he then see's that Bourne is in the corner and holding his eye. Hassan raises his arms above his head and does his prayer Evan Bourne kicks Hassan in the gut and then comes out of the corner fighting well at least tries to after elbowing Benjamin in the back of the head and then kicking Hassan in the gut again Benjamin had held his arm in place making sure the he didn't leave the corner of the ring and meanwhile Hassan had ran at the corner and just as Benjamin had let go Hassan had squashed Bourne in the corner....

clotheslining him in the corner. Muhammad Hassan gets lots of boo's from the crowd but they can't do anything about this gang up on Evan Bourne, Benjamin is in the corner choking him as Hassan is punching him in the upper body...AJ is about to come into the ring and make the save he gets one foot into the ring but the referee spots him and since he is the illegal man in the match up the referee stops him in his tracks and while AJ is complaining to the referee Hassan and Benjamin continue their onslaught on poor Evan Bourne. The referee moments later see's this happening and he goes up to the corner and breaks it up but the damage was already done...Muhammad Hassan just throws Evan head first onto the mat below literally just below his feet are still touching the bottom corner of the turnbuckle as he is on his stomach...Hassan then drags him to the middle of the ring like this by the arms and then goes for his finisher manoeuvre the Camel Clutch hold. Muhammad Hassan locks it in and Evan is in the middle of the ring thriving in pain.... AJ Styles runs into the ring and runs at the ropes behind Hassan and then grabs Hassan's head as he is running and hits a bulldog like move on Hassan he then goes back to his corner and gives Evan a chance to tag him in.

AJ is holding his arm out and with the other arm banging the top rope trying to get the crowd behind them in this match up, Evan shakes it off and manages to get himself in the push up position... AJ Styles holds his arm out as far as he can trying to get the tag and then Hassan grabs hold of the leg of Bourne stopping him in his tracks Hassan stands up with the leg and then Bourne standing and hopping on one leg does a standing kick a one foot dropkick to Hassan which also sends Bourne flying back – backfliping into his corner AJ tags himself into the match and runs in and clotheslines Hassan down. He then runs at the other corner and punches Benjamin in the head trying to knock him over his apron but Benjamin scouted it and ducked underneath the left arm by AJ and then Benjamin grabbed AJ's head and holds him against the ropes in front of Benjamin and Hassan runs at AJ, AJ ducks and moves out of the way and Hassan accidently knocks Benjamin over the apron and to the outside of the ring- AJ then grabs Hassan from behind and rolls him up in a school boy like pin fall trying to steal a victory but Hassan kicks out early before the referee could get past one.

AJ Styles grabs Muhammad Hassan's arm and pulls him to his corner of the ring- He then stops half way because there is a bit of a weight difference between the two and Hassan was only pulled and dragged to the middle of the ring. AJ Styles tags in his partner Evan Bourne and then lifts up Hassan to his feet and holds him there as Bourne dropkicked him right back down. Evan Bourne ran at the ropes but it was the opposition's rope and Shelton Benjamin had jumped up to the apron and punched him in the back of the head. This makes Evan Fall down and Hassan jumps right on him like a piranha Muhammad Hassan picks Evan Bourne up and then pummels him in the corner he then throws him at the ropes and leans forward wanting to go for a back body drop on Evan Bourne he then hits the move he lifts him up in the air but out of no where it gets reversed when Evan grabs Muhammad Hassan's head and in mid air he takes him down with a swinging neck breaker. Evan jumps at his corner and tags in his partner AJ – AJ runs in clotheslines Benjamin off the apron and to the outside he then runs at Hassan who goes to big boot him down but AJ ducks underneath it and nails Hassan with a "Pele Kick"

AJ Styles hits a pele kick out of nowhere on Hassan, Hassan is knocked out near the corner of the ring near AJ and Evan's corner of the ring, Evan holds his arm out for a tag and AJ tags him in- Evan Bourne goes up to the top rope and hits a shooting star press on Muhammad Hassan and then goes for the pin fall hooking the outside leg for the cover, 1......2......3!

WINNERS – AJ STYLES AND EVAN BOURNE

JR: Did you see that King, A Shooting Star Press on Muhammad Hassan my god King that was amazing....

*Moments later as the four men leave the ring after their match up The Miz's music hits and he comes down in a very foul mood*

Miz: I have had it with you fans and this awful booking backstage... (booo) Because if they can't realize that I should be in the main event then they shouldn't even be booking for this company I have been in one match and with my partner John Morrison and lets face it together we are the best tag team in the world today (booo) we should be tag team champions or atleast in the tag team title picture not the two MNM wannabee's Edge and Christian.

JR: Looks like someone is jealous....

Miz: And let's face it who is better out of John and I.... that's right I am I am the chick magnet, girls want me and guys want to be like me, and I am backstage and I hear Vince telling John that he is in a match tonight with CM Punk and Rhino for a shot at the Vacated Hardcore Championship......Has everyone gone nuts? Or am I the only one with a bit of sense around here to realize that that match would be much more profitable with me in it....

(Boooooo)

*Fit Finlay's music hits and he gets good reaction*

King: What is he doing here?

JR: He is the fighting Irishman Finlay and he loves to Fight.

Finlay gets himself a mike as he steps into the ring from the steps and then confronts The Miz.

Finlay: You say you should be in the main event?

The Miz: Yes I do, Didn't you hear me right?

Finlay: According to where I come from you have to win matches to be in the Main Event, you can't just run your mouth without backing it up.... and I am here and well I love to fight...

(Fans cheer as they know what he is getting at here)

The Miz: Are you saying me vs. You?

Finlay: (about to open his mouth)

The Miz: The Answer is NO!

(Booo)

The Miz: Look at yourself your nearly 50, your best days are behind you and if you got in the ring with me they would need body bags ready backstage...

Finlay: Sounds to me like someone can't put up or shut up...

The Miz: You know what you got it, you and me one on one only because I want to shut you up and prove to everyone backstage that I am better then you!

(A referee runs down to the ring and then the bell rings and the match beings)

Match – 2 Fit Finlay vs. The Miz

The Miz kicks Finlay in the gut as he is off guard and as he is putting his shillelagh down on the mat- The Miz then throws Finlay at the ropes but Fit Finlay the veteran reverses it puts the breaks on and throws The Miz at the ropes, on the rebound Finlay clotheslines The Miz down. Finlay runs at the ropes and then drops a high knee on The MIz, He goes for a pin fall quick cover but Miz kicks out very early before one and a half. Finlay grabs The Miz by the arm and pulls him slowly up to his feet and then pulls him towards Finlay himself and clotheslines the Miz back down hard whiplashing him on impact. Finlay grabs the left leg of The Miz lifts it up and begins to kick it in the back of the leg the calf and makes it all red he then turns The Miz on his stomach and still holding the left leg working on it targeting it he lifts the leg up as high as he can and then slams it back down to the canvas mat below knee first. Fit Finlay rolls him over for another pin fall hoping to get him this time, the referee makes the count- 1......2...,NO The Miz kicks out just after the count of two. Finlay then goes up to the referee and backs him into a corner he tells him what he really thinks as Hornswaggle comes up from the ring apron on the other end of the ring with a mini shillelagh and tries to get into the ring and nail Miz with it. Finlay distracting the referee and blocking his view and The Miz then see's Hornswaggle he then on one leg gets up to a knee and mini scoop slams him down. Hornswaggle rolls out of the ring in pain and back near the announcers.....Meanwhile Finlay turns around and see's him on his knees and things didn't go as planned Finlay ran at The Miz and big booted him in the jaw knocking him back down.

Finlay then has The Miz near the corner of the ring on his back- Finlay leaves the ring and grabs the leg of The Miz the same one he was working on before and pulls him one leg on one side of the ring pole and one leg on the other- The Miz is screaming no...But Finlay holding the left leg still slams it as hard as he can at the ring pole.....he then does the same with the right knee of The Miz and it isn't looking good... Finlay though realises after the second attack on The Miz that the referee was already at the count of five out of ten- Finlay rolls back into the ring and then breaks up the count. As Finlay is in the ring, he then grabs The Miz by the arm and then drags him out of the corner of the ring. Finlay hooks the bad left knee for the pin fall and the referee starts the count. 1........2......,NO Just in the nick of time The Miz had kicked out once again. Finlay then wanted to put an end to this match up and picked up The Miz who is shaky and groggy on two bad legs Finlay lifts The Miz up in the air for the Celtic Cross, Finlay kicks The Miz in the gut and just as he is about to lift him up in the over arm position The Miz rakes the eyes out of desperation and goes back to the mat he then kicks Finlay in the gut and throws him hard at the corner chest first.

On the rebound The Miz grabs the tights of Finlay and goes to roll him up, 1....2..(The referee stops the count) when the referee see's The Miz putting his feet up on the second rope for leverage which is cheating. The Miz then runs at the ropes as Finlay is lying down near the ropes and Finlay gets base ball slide out of the ring and down to the hard concrete slab below. The Miz waits a few moments and as Finlay slowly pulls himself up to his knee's The Miz runs at the ropes once more to try to do the move again but Finlay this time scouted it and had lifted the ring apron up and caught The Miz in it with the Base Ball slide. Finlay has the Miz trapped in the ring apron and Finlay is clubbing and hard haymakers to the back of The Miz- Miz then punches and tries to fight his way out but Finlay takes a step back after being punched in the jaw and then runs at clotheslines him down The Miz falls down in between the ring apron and the ring itself.

WINNER THE MIZ!

After the match as Miz is leaving with his arm raised up on the entrance ramp, Finlay is in the ring and can't believe it he is stunned as we go to a commercial break.

When the broadcast returns from a commercial break Colt Cabana's music hits and a lot of heat comes from the crowd as Colt makes his way down the entrance ramp.

Colt Cabana grabs the mike as JR and the King introduce him…

JR: Look at this man, on his first night on the show he beat the first ever world champion Shawn Michaels….

King: But Shawn is old and washed up, that’s why he isn't going to win the Rumble in two weeks, Colt Cabana still hasn't proved himself in my opinion.

JR: If you beat Shawn Michaels a three count on the mat a clean victory without cheating on your first night here that is saying something in my books.

King: First off JR I don't think you have ever written a book (laughs sarcastically) and plus Shawn is old and should pass the torch I say Colt should prove himself by beating someone like HHH or JBL or Kurt Angle otherwise to me he just beat another guy of the street in my view.

Colt Cabana: Ladies and Gentleman, boys and girls I would like to present to you the greatest debut match in the history of this business…

(On the tron it shows highlights and how the match last week ended with him and HBK)

Colt gets lots of Heat as the crowd favors Shawn more than him.

Colt Cabana: Man it's great to be here, in this atmosphere with all these great people but I am here on a mission baby and I am here to put the Wrestling in WAW We Are Wrestling Baby…

A more heat to him but he just ignores it and continues on.

Colt Cabana: You know I just got home after last week's show I went home to my apartment and I was celebrating my win over Shawn Michaels.

(Crowd cheer as they here the name of Shawn Michaels who will be the home town kid at the Royal Rumble)

Colt Cabana: Yea well, I turned on the TV and watched my match with Shawn live on the air I had the popcorn in my hands and it was great I had a great time laughing at everything…

Colt Cabana: Then I turned on my Computer went to WAW.com and I was expecting to see myself being qualified for the Royal Rumble as the number 30th Entrant no….apparently whatever it is that is returning some freak that was fired before is getting that spot.. I was upset but after a while I cooled down I then went to see what part will I be playing at my first Pay Per View the Royal Rumble and I saw that I was in a match with Shawn Michaels.

(The Crowd goes nuts)

Colt Cabana: The Heart Break Kid, the Showstoppa, Mr Main Event (with a funny accent and makes hand movements around the ring to make fun of him) I don't understand why? I beat him last week why do I have to beat him again.

JR: I think he is scared…

Colt Cabana: (has a grin on his face that goes right up to his ears) I kept reading and underneath where it said Shawn Michaels vs. Colt Cabana at the Rumble it said The Looser has to get a one digit number at the Royal Rumble match. Well I thought to myself for a while and I realized that I was going to lose this match!

JR: WHAT?! That isn't something you here from a challenger every day.

Colt Cabana: Hey let me explain I already have a pin fall victory over Shawn for my credit and if I lose at the Rumble on purpose and get in the Rumble match with a very low number I will win the Rumble and have that to my credit which is better than winning it from a higher number and there is no point in risking losing the Rumble just to have another win over Shawn Michaels.

King: This man is really smart. Smarter than Shawn Michaels the washed up kid.

Colt Cabana: (laughs) ha ha ha ha ha, The Royal Rumble 30 men but only one insane Jewish man Sanantonio Texas has never seen the likes of Colt Cabana…

(Colt drops the mike and leaves the ring)

Match – 3
Umaga vs. Bryan Danielson

The Bell rings and the match begins, Bryan Danielson walks around the ring a little bit to try and get some sort of good start in this match tries to get behind the Samoan Bulldozer but Umaga just stands there and screams Samoa! Umaga walks up to Bryan Danielson moments later and Bryan is backed into a corner, Bryan is no push over and tries to fight his way out of it and kicks Umaga in the gut- Umaga wobbles back one or two steps and gives Bryan a bit more of breathing room. Bryan does a two step run up from the corner at Umaga a jumping clothesline if you will at Umaga but Umaga catches him in mid air he has him on his right shoulder holding him there like a sack of potatoes. Umaga doesn't even look like he has broken a sweat. Umaga then is about to do a powerhouse move on Bryan Danielson he looks like he is about to do an Alabama slamma type move not exactly but something along the lines of that on Bryan Danielson but Bryan slides down the back of Umaga as he was on the shoulders and as he slides down he grabs the tights of Umaga and has him in a sunset flip pin fall in the middle of the ring but Umaga kicks out before the count of one even…

Umaga gets quickly straight away to a vertical base even before Bryan does and Umaga with his tapped up leg kicks the wind out of Bryan Danielson's chest and knocks him out and over back on the mat with it. Umaga then runs at the ropes with Bryan on his back in the middle of the ring and goes for a belly drop on him to squash him like a pancake. Bryan though moves out of the way in the last moment and manages to not get hit by it though Umaga crashes and burns his chest and upper body on the canvas mat in the middle of the ring. Bryan goes straight for the attack Bryan Danielson runs at the ropes and then dropkicks him in the ribs as Umaga is in the push up position and Umaga falls back down as a result of it. Bryan Danielson then runs at the ropes once more and this time hits a leg drop on the neck of Umaga. Bryan as he is on Umaga changes position and goes for a pin fall hooking the leg but Umaga kicks out before the count even got started.

Bryan Danielson takes a few steps back and stands in the corner leaning forward and ready to charge at Umaga with a flying dropkick as he slowly gets to one knee, When he gets to a vertical base Bryan Danielson runs at Umaga but Umaga caught him in mid air and slammed his body hard on the mat with a swinging side walk slam. Umaga then slaps his chest a few times and soaks in the crowd's heat for him. Umaga after slamming Bran Danielson to the mat moments ago grabs the left arm of Danielson and takes him over to the corner of the ring he drags him and places his head in place for the Train Wreck move; he goes to take his head off. Umaga goes back to the opposite corner not long after and begins to run at Bryan Danielson who doesn't even know where he is right now. Bryan gets nailed with the move and head bounces back.

Umaga at this time has the clear advantage, though he see's that Bryan Danielson is just lying there in the corner still moments after he doesn't even look like he is moving he looks really knocked out. Umaga takes this opportunity to go up to Bryan Danielson and by the legs pull him out of the corner slightly so he is lying under the top turnbuckle on his back flat. Umaga then goes all the way up to the second rope and is about to come crashing down on Bryan's sternum, with a near four hundred pounder crushing his wind pipe. Umaga goes into the air but Bryan Danielson had the wherewithal to roll slightly further to the middle of the ring and not get hit by it- Umaga though crashes his knee's and chest on the canvas mat below. By the time Bryan Danielson gets up to his feet and shakes off the moves earlier Umaga was already at his feet the Samoan Bulldozer looks unfazed and ready for more. Umaga walks into the middle of the ring and right up at Bryan and Bryan fearless punches Umaga a few times in the jaw but he doesn't even blink- Bryan Danielson then runs at the ropes and goes to knock him over with a clothesline but Umaga stands there still like a Brick Wall. Umaga bangs his chest and calls for more, Bryan runs at the ropes once more and this time goes for a flying clothesline a larriot time move in mid air but Umaga catches him and nails a Samoan Drop on him out of nowhere. Umaga covers him for the pin fall……..1…….2……3!!!!

WINNER UMAGA!

*Backstage*

Jonathon Coachman is backstage and is ready to cut an Interview-

Jonathon Coachman: My guest at this time, the one and only my man John Bradshaw Layfeild (booo)

Jonathon Coachman: JBL, how are you preparing yourself for your RVD match this evening? I mean even though you are a wrestling god and all but it is an important match.

JBL: John, I think you just answered your own question right there and plus I don't need to train and to push ups backstage I am always in the best shape of my life.

Jonathon Coachman: Well that's great to hear, Also what are your thoughts on the Royal Rumble this year?

JBL: This year I have the Royal Rumble in the palm on my hands, when I guarantee something I do it. And I guarantee that I will win this year Royal Rumble and headline wrestlemania 24 because I am..... A Wrestling uh, GOD!
Jonathon Coachman: What about you're Cabinet? What will happen if they are the last ones in the ring left with you to end the Royal Rumble match?

JBL: It doesn't matter who of the Cabinet it is if its MVP, or anyone on the roster they will all throw themselves over the top rope for me because they know they will be left with more dignity at the end of it when it's all said and done, rather than me throwing them over.

MVP walks by, he see's JBL....

JBL: Just the man I was looking for so you know the plan for the Royal Rumble this year?

MVP: What that plan you gave to me saying that I was going to eliminate everyone and then be second to you? That one, oh I ripped that up.

*Crowd pop*

MVP: (JBL has a priceless face) You may think I am on your side but at the Royal Rumble anything can happen when its thirty men for themselves the Half man Half amazing the most Valuable superstar on the Roster MVP will dominate and win the event.

JBL: Do you know who I am, I am a wrestling god and it's about time you listen hard and listen well MVP if your with me then you will be rolling with a Champion but if you go by yourself then you will have the carrier of a low card curtain jerker where the highest accomplishment you have ever made in your carrier is getting thrown out of the ring with both feet touching the floor by ME a Wrestling God.

MVP: Highest Accomplishment? I am an Intercontinental Champion, a United States Champion. For my credit, what are you? Nothing you have never won a title a singles title that is on WAW Oh and Just so you know the only reason I am going to come out there in the main event and help you win is because when I am the Champion after the Royal Rumble win and your the number one contender from the tournament win I can shut you up and prove to the world that I am better then the Wrestling God.

JBL walks away...

King: That damn MVP he should do what JBL is saying it is what is best for his future JBL is just being nice and telling him to be on his side at the Rumble but no he has to go on his own.

JR: MVP did the right thing in my mind, But nonetheless up next we have the long awaited Return of the Hardcore Championship where we haven't seen anything from this Title since this time last year when Goldberg was the Champion. Tonight we mark History when we bring back the title in a Triple threat match.

Making Punk drop the Barbed Wire Base Ball bat in the middle of the ring, Rhino see's near him the Trash can itself that he put in the ring and has a smile on his face as CM Punk is groggy and turned around Rhino put the Trash can on Punks head and Punk can't see with it- Punk is punching away blindly into the air hoping to nail a blow on Rhino but Rhino just laughs as he picks up the Barbed Wire Base Ball bat. Rhino hits Punk hard in the sternum with it in the gut and makes Punk hold his gut and move down to one knee...Rhino then backs into a corner and is aiming his moment to hit him with the gore.....

Morrison at this time of the match was with one arm on the ring apron on his knee's trying to pull himself up into the ring- Rhino didn't notice him and Morrison stops Rhino from the gore and possibly ending this match up. Morrison holds Rhino's leg down and stops him from running at Punk- Punk at this time had taken the can off of his head and saw that Rhino was trapped in the corner CM Punk ran at Rhino and hit a jumping knee to the jaw of Rhino he then put his arm around Rhino's head and hit a bulldog like move in the middle of the ring. Punk would usually go for the pin fall at this time of the match but he sees that Morrison is about to roll into the ring and probably break it up- Punk runs at the ropes in Morrison's direction and dives through the second rope and to the outside of the ring and takes Morrison out of this match momentarily. It takes a moment or two but eventually CM Punk manages to pull himself up to a vertical base. CM Punk rolls back into the ring but Rhino was ready- he was waiting for him and the second that Punk ran into the ring he was going to gore him- Rhino runs at Punk but Punk kicks Rhino in the shoulder. CM Punk then grabs Rhino and throws him at the corner of the ring at the turnbuckles. CM Punk runs at goes to clothesline him in the corner but Rhino grabs him in mid air takes him forward a few steps and then spine busters him on the trash can Punk is rolling around the ring in pain.

Rhino goes for the pin fall on the flattened trash can under Punk- the referee makes the count. 1.........2......,NO Punk kicks just in the nick of time. Rhino can't believe it Rhino goes up to the corner of the ring and then bangs his head on the top turnbuckle he can't believe it and doesn't know what else to do to him, he then has an idea- he rips the padding off of the top turnbuckle and makes it bare steel. He then goes up to Punk picks him up and goes to throw him hard at the corner he does and Punk hits his chest at the unpadded turnbuckles he probably has a bruised wind pipe. As Punk rebounds off of it Rhino clubs him with hard fists in the back and then wraps his arms around Punk and goes for a german suplex on him- he throws him around but Punk lands behind Rhino on his feet- Punk punches Rhino in the jaw and then throws him at the ropes Punk leans forward wanting to do a back body drop. At this time Morrison rolled into the ring behind Punk who was leaning forward with a Steel Chair and had whacked him in the back with it making Punk fall on his chest- Morrison then as Rhino was running off the ropes on the rebound goes to hit Rhino with the Chair but Rhino ducks under the Chair shot and keeps running behind Morrison at the other ropes but on this rebound Morrison holds the chair out flat and hits Rhino in the ribs with it. Then as Rhino leans forward he hits him with it on the back and both Punk and Rhino are down thanks to Morrison and a steal chair. Morrison goes for the pin fall on CM Punk but CM Punk gets his foot on the bottom rope- He then goes for the pin fall on Rhino but Rhino kicks out at the count of one and a half.

Morrison gets up and in a fit of rage starts to stomp on both CM Punk and Rhino until he thinks of something new to do- He takes Rhino drags him under the bottom rope and to the outside of the ring he then puts him cleanly flat on the wooden table still set up near the ring barricade in the early parts of this match and then Morrison rolls back into the ring and moves up on the top rope to go and send Rhino through the table. He is about to jump up in the air when CM Punk on the mat kicks the second rope and makes it wobble Morrison shakes on the top rope and gives Punk a second or two to get up to his feet- Punk jumps on the top turnbuckle with Morrison and then moves him in position for the Pepsi Plunge a move which is similar to a Pedigree from the top rope for those of you that don't know. Punk has him in position for it and then bang hits it.

JR: OH MY GOD KING DID YOU SEE THAT!

CM Punk rolls him up for the pin fall and the referee makes the count....1.....2.....,NO Morrison kicks out at the count of two- CM Punk looks like he is going to pull his hair out of his head it can't believe it. CM Punk picks Morrison up and out of the corner he drags him to the middle of the ring where he can't get to any sort of rope break and CM Punk locks Morrison in the Anaconda Vice submission hold...moments later John Morrison taps out and we have a new Hardcore Champion of the World.

WINNER AND NEW HARDCORE CHAMPION
CM PUNK!

After the Commercial break the camera goes backstage to the locker room of Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase Junior the world tag team champions who next week at the Royal Rumble face the team of Edge and Christian.

Cody is seen talking to Mark Henry in the locker room and behind Cody, Ted Dibiase Junior is taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash into a stuffed silver briefcase...Ted then hands the Briefcase over to Cody who then says the following the Mark Henry.

Cody: So remember the deal, Mr. Henry you see this briefcase of money you get this briefcase with 500 thousand dollars when you injure and eliminate Edge and Christian by the Royal Rumble I don’t care if it's now or the minute before our Rumble match starts you get this money when they are not able to walk down to the ring when they are crawling to ringside.

Mark Henry: Deal.... (Mark Henry cracks his fingers and leaves the room and goes out to try and find Edge and Christian)

JR: What cheating ... (interrupted by King)

King: Hey its only cheating if he does it during the match there are no referee's on the clock 24/7 I say team priceless are one of the most intelligent men I have ever seen in the wrestling business that's why they are champions.....

JR: Henry is the worlds strongest man someone better tell Edge and Christian to get out of the building before they really get injured.

King: Will you be blabbing to them?

JR: No, but on topic our next match is a monster vs. Monster match a two time United States Champion Brock Lesnar vs. Last years Royal Rumble winner Kane! King who is your pick for this match?

King: It's like choosing between King Kong vs. Godzilla I really can't chose but it would be a great match to watch.

Match – 5
"The Big Red Monster" Kane vs. "The Next Big Thing" Brock Lesnar

Kane and Brock Lesnar circle the ring two or three times before making contact, Brock Lesnar is the first one to seek contact as he walks up to Kane face to face monster to monster in the middle of the ring even though Brock Lesnar is no small man he looks tiny compared to Kane who is a seven footer...Brock Lesnar kicks him in the gut making the first move he then runs at the ropes behind him and as Kane leans forward Brock goes for a powerhouse like move but Kane stands up on his feet and was playing possum thus uppercutting him in the jaw as he was running on the rebound at Kane...Kane then uppercuts him in the throat twice more and makes him wobble back to the ropes, Kane then throws Brock Lesnar at the opposite ropes and on the rebound Kane holds his right boot up in the air to big boot Brock Lesnar down but Lesnar stops at the ropes and doesn't run back he just leaves the ring and stands near the announce tables....Brock Lesnar is holding his throat as he was knocked in the Adam's apple and is trying to catch his breath. Though Kane doesn't give a damn about Brock Lesnar and leaves the ring and runs at Brock Lesnar behind him- Brock turns around and gets met with a clothesline knocking Brock over on the outside of the ring. Kane grabs Lesnar by the head and rolls him into the ring under the bottom rope....Brock sitting in the middle of the ring and then is watching Kane go into the ring over the top rope and steps into the ring, Brock Lesnar is begging for a time out....

Kane just laughs and sticks his hand in Brock's throat and picks him up in the Chokeslam position, Kane is choking him and is about to lift him up in the air and try to slam him down to the mat below in the middle of the ring but Brock kicks Kane in the gut and then uses his animalistic power to pick Kane up in the spine buster position and run with him driving him to the corner of the ring...Kane is backed into the corner as Brock Lesnar attacks Kane with hard shoulder blocks to the gut and lower body...After about three the referee tells Brock to stop- Kane then turns Brock around and uppercuts him once more giving Kane room to get out of the corner. Kane then throws Brock into that very corner switching positions and Kane punches Brock in the gut and jaw and upper body multiple times in the corner before uppercutting him one last time. Kane walks back up to the diagonally across corner and then goes to run and clothesline Brock Lensar in the corner squashing him in there...Kane takes charge he runs as fast as he can but then Brock Lesnar runs at Kane and in the middle of the ring these two monsters clash with a double clothesline knocking both men down and out in the middle of the ring. The referee begins to count them out

1.........2.........3...........4.........5.......6 (At this time Brock was slowly in the push up position, 7........... Brock goes up to Kane and begins to stomp on him making contact with Kane stops the count out by the referee, Brock Lesnar drags Kane to the corner of the ring sitting against the bottom corner turnbuckle and Lesnar sticks his big boot in the face of Kane and really gives it to him kicking him and stomping on him in the corner. The referee comes in the middle to break it up and let Kane get out of the corner- Brock takes a step back and holds his arms up to the referee like what did I do acting all innocent, Lesnar see's Kane getting up to his feet slowly by the help of the ropes and Lesnar pushes the referee to the floor away aside, and then charges at Kane but Kane kicks him in the gut uppercuts him and then runs and goes to big boot him down in the middle of the ring but Brock ducks underneath the boot by Kane and then lifts Kane up and has him in position for the F5 finisher move. Kane rakes the eyes of Brock Lesnar and then falls behind him- Kane then sticks his fist in the throat of Lesnar and goes for a Chokeslam on him but Brock Lesnar puts his two fists together and beings them down hard on the arm of Kane making his grip on his throat less and less until Kane lets go, Lesnar throws Kane at the ropes and then Kane reverses it and throws Brock Lesnar at the ropes on the rebound Kane catches Lesnar and nails him in the middle of the ring with a sidewalk slam. Kane goes for a pin fall but Brock kicks out at the count of two....

Kane gets up to his feet, cracks his fingers and moves his fingers slowly across his neck, he signals the end is near. He picks up Brock Lesnar from the mat and goes for a move that he hasn't used in a long time the Tomb Stone Pile Driver- He lifts him up in position for it he has ready to drive him down to the mat below with the move, but then suddenly Brock Lesnar leans backwards Pushes Kane back and now has Kane in the Tomb Stone Pile Driver position- with this twist of events Brock Lesnar looks like he is about to hit him with his own finisher move but Kane with his legs near Lesnar's head starts to shake his legs and kick Lesnar. Kane manages to crawl up Brock Lesnar and then tries to crawl down Lesnar's back behind Lesnar but half way with Kane in the pump handle slam position half legs behind lesnar's shoulders and half of his body still leaning forward- Lesnar holds him in place with one arm and runs around the ring and slams him to the mat with a pump handle slam. Brock Lesnar hooks the leg for the pin fall thinking he has this match in the bag and thinks he has momentum going into the royal rumble match but Kane kicks out just after the count of two...

Brock Lesnar picks Kane up he is angry now, and looks like he is going to snap Brock puts him on his knees and then picks him up by the amrs to his feet on a vertical base, Brock Lesnar then puts his arm under him and then picks Kane up ready for an F5- He takes Kane on his shoulders to the middle of the ring and then swings him in the air, Though Kane lands on his feet and then sticks his hand in Brock's throat going for a chokeslam he lifts him up in the air and then slams him to the mat below thunderously...Kane goes for the pin fall the referee makes the count- 1.......2.....3!!!

WINNER KANE!

JR: I have just got word now that Mark Henry is laid out in the men's dressing room...

King: What?!

JR: Seems to me like Mark Henry was found by Edge and Christian before they where found by him.

*On the tron it shows Mark Henry with a bloody gashed up face lying there on the bathroom floor*

MAIN EVENT!
"WINNER IS IN THE WORLD TITLE MATCH AT THE ROYAL RUMBLE!"
RVD vs. John Bradshaw Layfeild w/ his cabinet at ringside (MVP, Gangrel & Kevin Thorn)

Rob Van Dam looks around at the cabinet standing like lumberjacks on the outside of the ring, MVP – Gangrel and Kevin Thorn are all surrounding the ring gangrel holds onto RVD's leg stopping him from going up to JBL to make contact with him, RVD goes to kick him from the inside of the ring in between the ropes but from behind John Bradshaw Layfeild runs at Rob Van Dam and clubs him in the back making him falls against the ropes down on one knee JBL then pummels his back with hard rights and lefts to lower back then hard closed fists until RVD pushes John Bradshaw Layfeild a few steps back gives him a second or two to breathe. JBL runs back at RVD but RVD pulls the top rope down and JBL falls right on MVP and Gangrel taking all three of them out, Kevin Thorn is though on the other of the outside of the ring....RVD runs at the ropes and wants to do an areal move to them on the outside from the ring but as he runs at the ropes Kevin Thorn grabs him as he hits the other ropes and gets hold of his legs....RVD then gets pulled under the bottom rope and to the outside of the ring- RVD then starts to throw rights and lefts with Kevin Thorn on the outside of the ring until Kevin Thorn ducks under one of the right hands by RVD and shoulder charges his back into the ring apron RVD screams in pain as Kevin Thorn rolls him into the ring...the referee is still counting out JBL though until the count of 6 when MVP and Gangrel help JBL up to his feet and back into the ring where RVD is on one knee....

RVD runs at the ropes as JBL is lying down there beginning to move slowly on the mat on his back, RVD on the rebound at the ropes does a forward roll and then amazingly hits the rolling thunder on John Bradshaw Layfeild the crowd pops and they like to see RVD take control of this match up...RVD goes for the pin fall on JBL but even before the referee could start the count JBL was near the ropes and the pin fall was broken up. Rob Van Dam grabs JBL by the left arm and tries to drag him to the middle of the ring but JBL is dead weight 300+ pounder and being knocked out dead weight that doubles it due to gravity pushing down....RVD manages to move him a little but then gives up RVD then stands there and jumps up in the air and then does a 360 in the air and lands a leg drop on the throat of JBL a standing leg drop...RVD then goes to the corner of the ring grabs hold of the top ropes and then jumps himself and pulls himself up to the top turnbuckle he turns around and is in position for his patented finisher move the five star frog splash. RVD looks to the left then to the right as he soaks in the crowd chants of R...V....D. MVP on the other end of the ring gets up on the ring apron distracting the referee and arguing with him, he is doing this on one end of the ring apron far from RVD while Kevin Thorn the big man goes up on the apron next to RVD and goes to push him off the top rope...he does this and RVD lands hard on the announce tables from the top turnbuckle he hits his jaw on the announce tables the corner and RVD is knocked out on the outside of the ring as the referee begins the count. JBL still is lying there on the floor as a knocked out RVD gets picked up by Gangrel and then thrown into the ring only after being thrown at the steel ring post only dong more damage to his face and jaw...

Once RVD was rolled into the middle of the ring holding his jaw and face with both hands JBL rolled his arm over after seeing Rob Van Dam like this and had hooked his legs for the pin fall this time thinking he had won the match as he hooks both legs for the pin fall the referee goes sliding down to the mat and begins to make the count- 1........2........,NO RVD pushes out and kicks out at the same time RVD is still in the title picture for the Royal Rumble main event.JBL can't believe it he is sitting up and has a real angry mood on his face, JBL stands up on his feet on a vertical base and raises his right arm high above his head signalling the end using the long horns taunt, as he goes for a power bomb. JBL puts RVD in between his legs and then drops his right arm as he is ready for the high impact maneouver....RVD still shaky from the blows on the outside of the ring earlier in the match as this is 4 on 1 really says JR... JBL lifts RVD up in the air for the power bomb and has him sitting his shoulders ready to be slammed to the mat below. Rob Van Dam starts to punch JBL in the head and makes his grip on RVD holding him up in the air weaker...JBL drops him behind him and JBL turns around to "meet" him though RVD kicks him in the gut but JBL catches the leg kick as it comes towards him and RVD tries to punch JBL but JBL just stands there and laughs at a one legged RVD. RVD then uses his other leg to hit JBL in the jaw knocking both him and RVD over in the middle of the ring with a kick known as the Vandaminator. RVD rolls him over for the pin fall...1........2....,NO JBL kicks out at the count of two.

RVD is the first man to get to his feet, he then realizes that the only way he can even try and hit the five star frog splash and end this matchup is when JBL's cabinet is not around to knock him over the apron / turnbuckles...RVD then runs at the ropes and out of no where summer saults over the top rope and to the outside just flipping over the top rope and flying to the entrance ramp direction knocking over both Kevin Thorn and Gangrel and MVP. The referee is in shock but he continues the match up and continues his count out on RVD....As JBL gets to a vertical base with the help of the ropes for leverage RVD is still struggling to get back into the ring and it is getting down to the wire in this main event match when both men are tired and weary....RVD is currently at the count of 6 and is on one knee, he hears the count of seven and he quickly rolls into the ring still holding his lower back from the impact on the concrete mat below he rolls into the ring because he doesn't want to be counted out...As soon as he rolls into the ring he doesn't even let RVD get up to his feet he is still in the "rolling" position near the ropes as JBL jumps on him and kicks him in the ribs stomping on him and not giving him a chance to get up.

The referee makes RVD some room as he gives JBL the count of five to get out and stop the stomping on RVD otherwise he is disqualified....JBL doesn't listen and the referee continues the count on him. 1......2......3......4..., At this time JBL stops and holds his arms up in the innocent look like "what did I do?" JBL utilises the entire referee's five count. RVD is a few seconds later on one knee and JBL forgets about the referee and goes back to work on him but RVD on one knee punches him in the gut it might have been a bit low but the referee thought it was still legal as JBL backs away holding his crotch area....RVD waits for the right moment and then jumps up to his feet hitting a round house kick on JBL in the jaw and knocking him over in the centre of the ring....RVD looks to the left, then to the ring and the crowd goes nuts as they know what he is thinking....RVD goes up to the ropes puts himself on the top rope- he then turns around facing JBL and then goes into the air going for the five star frog splash. JBL gets hit with the move and RVD holds his gut and covers him for the pin fall...the referee makes the count - 1...............2............3!!!!!!!!!

WINNER ROB VAN DAM!!!!

[Emperor DC]

On first viewing, it seems very average. I will give you a full review early next week as this weekend is a busy one for me.

 

[THE Renegade Diesel]

AJ Styles, and Sydal/Bourne vs. Benjamin, and Hassan: Good choice for an opener. Four above average wrestlers, with a lot of talent that can have great chemistry. Bourne, and Styles together is an awesome idea. The finish is great use of Bourne's star press. You repeated Aj's use of the Pele Kick twice actually lol. Good opener. Sets a face pace for the show.

Fit Finlay, vs. The Miz: TOMKO: NO!
Lulz! Anyways, good match. Awesome heel win to have after the first face win. Balances out the show. Good match with some acceptional action.

Colt Cabanna: :rofl: at the last line. Good promo. Best of the night to me. Michaels, and Cabanna should be amazing. I can't wait.

Umaga vs. Danielson: Love Danielson! Umaga is a beast to. So I was reading this match with much enthusiasm. Ending felt bland, and unrealistic due to me not picturing Umaga catck Brian in the air for a Samoa Drop. If it was off the turnbuckle then alright, but Danielson doesn't get that much air.

Coach, and JBL: Pushing MVP? That's 'bitching'. This promo really wasn't good for me. I mean it was in character but I couldn't visualize it at all. Which is really what you try to do when writting no? Help people visualize the scene. But it kept this little sub-story intresting. Now I wonder if MVP will play a role in the main event.

CM Punk vs. John Morrison vs. Rhino: Great superstars for a hardcore match. Punk capping off with the Pepsi Plunge is awesome. Good match here in my opinon. I'm a fan of all three but only like writting with one of them lol. Beginning really had me lost but it got better.

Team Priceless, and Henry: This intrested me into whats going on with the scene before the mainevent. Priceless assholes. Gets them over as the heels they are.

Kane vs. Lesnar: The average powerhouse match here. Two big guys equal, one big match. Not much else to say here. Kane winning was good as I like his build in the BTB. I remember reading him tieing with 'Taker at 'Mania so I guess you are a fan?

Rob Van Dam vs. JBL: Great main event. Honestly, I was pulling for JBL because I love the guy. Hes an awesome heel, and him in the main event at the rumble would have made the match an instant read for me. The interference by ther cabinet makes RVD look very strong, and was well instituted. Overall, great main event with a lot of action. MOTN for me.

Overall Thoughts: Good show DX. I really enjoyed most matches, and the Royal Rumble is looking 'bitching'. The tag match looks amazing, and Colt versus Michaels is a must read for me. The Rumble will be intresting, and overall I cant wait.

A 10 Man over the top rope battle royal
Warm up for the Royal Rumble this week.
You would think that whoever wins this would get a clear advantage going into the 30 Man Royal Rumble match this Sunday. But that is never the case - anything can happen in a thirty man royal rumble match and anything can happen when the 30th entrant to the real rumble match is a mystery man. This ten man royal rumble match though we do know for sure all the ten men in the match which are as follows. Samoa Joe vs. Santino Marrella vs. John Morrison vs. John Bradshaw Layfeild vs. Evan Borne vs. The Miz vs. The Big Show vs. Kane vs. Shawn Michaels. Bryan Danielson...Who do you put your money on?

This one is an interesting one a three on one handicap match. John Cena the current WAW Heavyweight Champion of the world defends this sunday night at the Royal Rumble his gold in a three way match against Kurt Angle the former champion and Rob Van Dam the number one contender. Though tonight John teams up with RVD to take on MVP, Gangrel and Kevin Thorn all these three men can work together and we have seen them do so as all of them are part of JBL's cabinet. But can RVD and Cena work together? That we are not sure of but they need to, to beat the three men tonight to be 100% at the Royal Rumble. So can they put differences aside and fight for the better cause? or will sparks fly and tag teams dismember each other? Also where will Kurt Angle be?.....Stay tunned.​

*WAW Pryro goes off*

JR: Welcome Ladies and Gentleman to Monday Night WAW..... And tonight we have a ten man over the top rope battle royal in the main event just a warm up for the royal rumble this Sunday.

King: Yea Yea, Welcome.....I am still frustrated over the fact that JBL the wrestling god isn't in the main event of the royal rumble.

JR: Get over it.

*Jeff Hardy's music hits and he gets a standing ovation from the crowd*

JR: The Charasmatic Enigma is on his way down to the ring and the crowd is going wild.

Moments later the music for the new hardcore champion CM Punk hits and he gets even bigger pop and he runs down to the ring.

CM Punk vs. Jeff Hardy
Non Title Match.

CM Punk drops the title and then goes up to Jeff Hardy both men look at each other before shaking hands and both of these friends wish each other the best of luck. CM Punk and Jeff Hardy lock up they take a few moments in the middle of the ring before they move anywhere Jeff manages to push Punk back into the corner against the turnbuckle. Still with their hands locked together the referee pushes in between them and then forces CM Punk and Jeff Hardy to break up the hold. CM Punk has a smile on his face an ear to ear smile as he is excited for this match which the fans are too....CM Punk and Jeff are clapping their hands as they circle the ring a few times trying to get the crowd into the match once again before making contact for the second time. CM Punk runs at Jeff Hardy trying to get a quick advantage and clothesline him over early in the match up but Jeff catches the right arm by Punk and then flips him over and to the mat below on his side hitting Punk with an arm drag. Jeff smiles as he waits for CM Punk to instantly get up to his feet, Punk claps him and they lock up once more. This time CM Punk elbows Jeff in the side of the head and then Jeff kicks CM Punk in the gut. Jeff Hardy grabs hold of CM Punk's head with both hands and then jumps down, falls down to the sitting down position and nails CM Punk in the middle of the ring with a Jaw Breaker like move. CM Punk holds his chin as he wobbles back a step or two. Jeff jumps up to his feet and then runs over at CM Punk but CM Punk kicks him in the gut as Punk leans against the ropes holding his chin with one hand. Jeff is on his knee's but only for a moment and that's all CM Punk had needed to run at Jeff Hardy and fly over him grabbing his tights on the way down CM Punk rolls Jeff Hardy up with a sunset flip. The referee makes the count 1.....2, NO Jeff kicks out at the count of two.

CM Punk as he has his legs on Jeff's shoulders sitting down still holds them there even after the pin fall was broken, CM Punk wraps his legs around the chest area of Jeff Hardy and then rolls around the ring in that position making Jeff roll around the ring too and making Jeff Hardy physically hurt his shoulders. CM Punk then stops after a couple of twists and turns and then stands back up to his feet, he gets a good crowd reaction. CM Punk picks Jeff Hardy up to his feet he then has a Jeff Hardy in his hands and pushes him against the ropes, he punches him a few times hard against the ropes and then grabs his arm and throws him at the opposite ropes. On the rebound CM Punk is awaiting the arrival of Jeff with him leaning forward as CM Punk seeks to hit him with a back body drop but Jeff Hardy puts the breaks on and then runs and kicks him hard in the shoulders this pushes CM Punk up to his feet and Punk smiles as Jeff runs at him and Punk sends him flying to the mat with a power slam. CM Punk goes for the pin fall, 1.......2.....,NO Jeff Hardy kicks out once again in the middle of the ring.

CM Punk gets up on one knee after Jeff Hardy kicking out of the power slam move in the middle of the ring and then puts his hands on his hips and frustration starts to sink in. CM Punk stops Jeff Hardy from moving out of that spot when CM Punk punches him continuously in the forehead until the referee breaks it and forces CM Punk to stop it. CM Punk then has a two word conversation with the referee and turns around only to be met by Jeff who is on his knees and punches CM Punk in the gut. CM Punk goes back into the corner holding his lower belt area.

JR: Looks like that blow was a bit low the equator.

The referee though thinks otherwise and keeps this going, Jeff gets back up to his feet and then runs and clotheslines CM Punk in the corner just making him groggier as he gets ready for a more high impact move on him. Jeff Hardy hits a few hard shots to the jaw of CM Punk before kicking him in the gut and kicking him a couple of times to make CM Punk weaker and stay in the corner momentarily- Jeff Hardy grabs the arm of CM Punk throws him at the other ropes diagonally across and then on the rebound CM Punk stops he puts his hands out in front of him and holds onto the top rope, Jeff though is running after Punk and then Punk elbows Jeff in the back of the head. CM Punk goes for another elbow to the back of the head but Jeff ducks underneath the elbow and then Jeff is under CM Punk, Jeff shoulder charges him into the corner and then takes a step back and kicks him in the gut. He then grabs hold of the head of Punk and goes for a twist of fate in the corner but Punk holds onto the top rope and Jeff doesn't get anything. Jeff Hardy just gets kicked from behind in the lower back to the middle of the ring, CM Punk dives out of the corner of the ring near the turnbuckles and doesn’t waste any time going on the attack he jumps at Jeff Hardy even before he could turn around and grabs his head he nails him with a bulldog. CM Punk then leaves the ring he goes up to the apron and then is awaiting for Jeff Hardy to get to his feet so he can do an aerial clothesline. Once Jeff Hardy got to his feet slowly slowly with the help of the ropes CM Punk used the ropes near him pulled himself in one leap to the top rope and then jumps from the top rope over at Jeff Hardy but Jeff Hardy standing there jumps up as well a few feet in the air and nails a standing dropkick to the ribs of CM Punk. Punk goes crashing to the mat below holding his ribs in tremendous pain.

Jeff Hardy rolls him up for the count hooking both legs, the referee makes the count. 1........2.......(at this time CM Punk got his arm wrapped around the bottom rope). Jeff Hardy gets to one knee and then punches and hits the canvas mat below him he can't believe it. Jeff Hardy then runs at the ropes and base ball slides CM Punk out of the ring and to the outside and CM Punk hits his shoulder hard on the crowd barrier. Jeff Hardy stands up with a good crowd response. Jeff Hardy leaves the ring goes up to the top turnbuckle in the corner and then see's CM Punk on the outside near the ring and crowd barrier just lying there he leaps in mid air and goes for a swanton bomb on the outside of the ring. In mid air CM Punk moves out of the way and there is no turning back for Jeff Hardy right now...CM Punk managed to roll over slightly to the left giving him some room and this makes Jeff crash and burn on the outside of the ring. Jeff Hardy holds his lower back as he screams in pain, The referee at this time is at a count of two and with both men down he continues to make the count.....

King: Look at that, he dives in the air and risks his opportunity to win the match. He had the advantage in the match before with Punk on the outside he just had to go and ruin it by jumping out with him. That shows you how smart he is.

JR: You can't keep Jeff Hardy down, he is crazy and will do anything to please the fans.

King: Yea but where does that get you in a wrestling carrier? Nowhere, out of all the times he has broken his back for the crowd compare that to the amount of times that has actually won himself titles then get back to me.

(JR is silent.)

The referee at this time is at the count of five, The referee continues the count with Jeff Hardy not moving not even close to getting up and CM Punk quite admirably getting up to his feet, he is in a lot of pain but he sucks it in and rolls into the ring holding his ribs from that base ball slide to the outside + the dropkick from the top rope on him by Jeff Hardy. With him sliding in the ring this breaks up the referee's count, the referee is at six and a half when CM Punk rolls into the ring and only now he is counting Jeff Hardy out that is if he can answer the ten count. CM Punk stands there leaning against the ropes and takes deep breathes as his opponent is being counted out he catches his breathe and tries to regain momentum into this match. But the Hardcore Champion thinks to himself and then realises that his is not the way he wants to win this match, he leaves the ring and then goes up to Jeff Hardy at the count of 8 and rolls him into the ring. CM Punk rolls into the ring not long after. Jeff Hardy is still knocked out cold and isn't even blinking, CM Punk has him rolled onto his back in the middle of the ring and CM Punk hooks the legs for the pin fall....1.............2...........,NO! Jeff Hardy manages to kick out.

He had the wherewithal to kick out in literally the list split second.
CM Punk is ready to pull his hair out of his head....he can't believe it but he stands up and then before even thinking of doing more damage on him he pulls Jeff Hardy up to his feet and then with Jeff wobbling there he claps him and gives him some respect before putting him on his shoulders and going for the GTS Go to Sleep. CM Punk is ready to hit it but he has trouble doing so when Jeff Hardy is shaking and wobbling to get himself back on his feet behind CM Punk. He manages to wriggle down Punk's back, Punk turns around and then he gets met with a kick to the sternum. Jeff grabs Punk's head and screams he signals the end with a Twist of Fate. He hits it out of nowhere and he goes for a quick pin cover....the referee makes the count, 1...............2.........,NO CM Punk kicks out just in the nick of time...Jeff Hardy can't believe it. Jeff Hardy see's that he is still lying there and then walks up to the top rope and then goes for his other finisher move the swanton bomb. He is standing on the top rope. He leaps into the air and then nails the move.....He hooks both legs this time for the pin fall hoping to put him away and he does he gets the three count and he wins the match.

WINNNER JEFF HARDY!

JR: Jeff Hardy! He did it did you see that King....

King: Yea, but I hope that isn't the result of this Sunday's Royal Rumble...I would hate to see a guy like him pull of another fluke.

JR: It very well could happen.

*Edge and Christian's "you think you know me?" old music hit hits and the crowd goes nuts*

Edge and Christian smile in the ring with their goofy glasses bringing back their old clothing. Edge grabs the mike....he is ready to speak.

Edge: (about to open his mouth)

Christian: Don't worry little brother I've got this one, you see Mark Henry we did a bit of research the other night and we only now just realised that you totally reeked of awesomeness....

*Crowd confused but they do boo at the sound of Mark Henry.*

Edge: Yea take it from us, you have your own entrance music. You are the world strongest man not the mention other things.

King: That's so nice of them to say......

Christian: Here we thought we might do something really nice because we found out that you like chocolate....

Edge: Yea in fact we even found out you have your own line of chocolate on the market.

*Crowd laughs as this was shown on the tron*

Edge: Hey Brother, doesn't he remind you of Markie and the Chocolate factory.

King: MARKIE! (laughs)

Christian: So Mark Henry, could you please come out to the ring so we could give you something nice from us to you....

*Mark Henry storms down to the ring and he is not pleased*

JR: Looks like he didn't find it that funny....

Christian (as Edge pulls a package wrapped up like a birthday present out from under the ring): (Mark Henry is standing in front of Christian ready to knock him out) Hey wait a minute Markie, were all friends here....and don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. I mean were buds yea I mean (nods to Edge and smiles) I mean Markie what happened last week was a mistake I must have mistaken you for Shelton Benjamin's mumma....

JR: Oh my....

Mark Henry is ready to punch both of them out he holds his right fist up high.....

Edge: Hold on big fela, I know I kinda speared you last week and I you kinda broke the cubicle door in the toilets backstage and I kinda laid you out last week...but what do you say pal?

Christian: (as Edge holds his arm out to shake it) (Mark Henry is not amused) Christian maybe he will see how awesome we are as friends when he opens the present....(Edge gives it to Christian to give to Henry) (Henry holds it in his hands)

Edge: Yea Yea.....(both of them act like buffoons going right in his face and smiling and laughing and watch him open the parcel)

(before he could open it)

*Team Priceless come out with the briefcase full of cash they had last week*
Ted: (walking to the ring) Hey don't do it its some sort of trap, listen to us we are second generation superstars we know what we are talking about......Mark Henry just punch them out right now and I will hand this briefcase over to you....

Mark Henry gives the parcel over to Christian who's jaw drops and then Mark Henry double clotheslines both of them Edge and Christian. But Edge and Christian both duck underneath the clothesline by Mark Henry and they together manage to punch him down and knock him over Mark Henry is rolling under the ring and is walking away as Team Priceless get into the ring.
Cody Rhodes: You two rednecks (booo) Better get back in line or we will wipe that sorry smile off of your face this Sunday.

Edge: Wipe that off my face?

Ted Dibiase: Yea? (goes up to Edge)

Christian opens the parcel behind Edge and with Edge as a distraction Christian manages to pull out what was underneath and it was a Kazoo ...
Christian blows the Kazoo in Ted's ear and he falls over in shock. Christian and Edge laugh as both of them roll out of the ring and go to the back, Edge and Christian continue to play games as they play the Kazoo along to their entrance music, and get the crowds pop reaction.

King: They can play games now but this Sunday it is all going to be serious business...

JR: I agree but it's always fun to get into your opponents heads before the match up.

Moments later Shelton Benjamin's music hits "Isn't no stopping him now!"

The crowd boos him from the second they see him until the second that his opponent's music hits which they give a standing ovation to. The crowd erupts as the Intercontinental Champion AJ Style's comes down to the ring with his music.

Match – 2
AJ Styles vs. Shelton Benjamin

AJ Styles the Intercontinental Champion gets lots of crowd chants as this match begins, Shelton Benjamin doesn't care about what the crowd think- He walks up to AJ who goes up to Shelton and they are face to face. Shelton Benjamin does a very low class act by slapping AJ Styles right in the face. AJ takes a second but then fights right back with a few hard shots to the jaw and elbows to the side of the head on Shelton Benjamin which results in AJ Styles punching Shelton Benjamin back to the ropes, AJ Styles runs at the ropes as he thinks that Benjamin is groggy and on the rebound Shelton Benjamin who was playing possum ducks underneath a clothesline and then sends AJ flying over the top rope but AJ Styles had the wherewithal to hold onto the top rope as he was in mid air and he just lands on his feet on the ring apron right behind Shelton Benjamin. As Benjamin turned around to face him AJ grabbed Benjamin by the head and then jumped off the apron making his neck bounce off the top rope and hit him in the Adam's apple. Temporarily winding him...AJ Styles runs back into the ring under the bottom rope not wasting any time and then runs and clotheslines Shelton Benjamin down. AJ Styles gets right on Shelton Benjamin and the referee makes the count not hooking any legs AJ stops the count at the count of one and just physically assaults Shelton Benjamin with hard shots to the forehead. Shelton Benjamin is being pummelled in the middle of the ring.

The referee breaks it up and forces AJ Styles to get off of him, AJ does so takes a step or two back as he doesn't want to get disqualified. Not long after AJ Styles jumps right back on him and starts to punch him again as the referee counts to five. Once again AJ Styles utilises the full referee's five count. Once he had to let go this time, AJ Styles stood up and then as he has Shelton Benjamin in the middle of the ring he runs at the ropes and goes for a leg drop on Shelton Benjamin but Shelton Benjamin moves out of the way and AJ Styles misses him- AJ Styles hits his ass on the canvas mat below. This gives Shelton Benjamin a couple of seconds to try and regain an upper hand in this contest. He stands up on his feet and as AJ is sitting in the middle of the ring on his ass Benjamin runs at the ropes and then on the rebound boots him in the jaw he knocks AJ flat on his back almost knocking a tooth out. Shelton Benjamin goes for the pin fall but AJ Styles kicks out before the count could even begin. AJ styles still has a lot of fight left in him, Shelton Benjamin jumps up to his feet and instantly begins to stomp and kick away at him he kicks him all around his body as he is down from his head to his feet. He doesn't miss a spot to kick him while he is down, Shelton Benjamin thinks he has done enough damage for the moment and then goes up to the side of the ring and faces the crowd he does AJ's signature pose with his arms out wide and a smirk on his face. Shelton Benjamin mocks AJ as the crowd boo him greatly.

Though Shelton Benjamin had wasted too much time, One Shelton Benjamin had turned around AJ Styles was on his feet and then kicked him in the gut hard, showing no lack of remorse he throws him at the ropes to the right of the ring and then leans forward hoping to nail him with a back body drop. Shelton Benjamin doesn't even put the brakes on so to speak but he keeps running at AJ Styles and just before they would make contact and AJ would back body drop him Shelton Benjamin grabbed the head of AJ Styles and nailed a swinging neck breaker in the middle of the ring. Shelton Benjamin doesn't go for the pin fall but he grabs the head of AJ that was just slammed to the mat below and gets him in a head lock lying down in the middle of the ring, to apply more pressure the all American wrestler Shelton Benjamin wrapped his legs around AJ's chest to stop the breathing. After holding the submission hold in for a couple of moments not even a minute AJ Styles tries his hardest to squirm and move his way out of it, he is lying down and then moves to the left, then to the right but Shelton Benjamin still holds the move in tightly but AJ had succeeded to get himself up to one knee which makes Shelton Benjamin let go of the chest and only hold him in a sleeper hold head lock as tight as he can. AJ Styles jumps up to his feet with the head lock still in hold and then runs with Benjamin on his back all the way to the corner of the ring and slams Shelton Benjamin against the turnbuckles. This gives Shelton Benjamin a lot of lower back instant pain and Shelton Benjamin loses his grip on AJ, AJ turns around and then punches him and stomps away at him in the corner until he is sitting down against the bottom rope. AJ Styles does his pose to the crowd to show Shelton Benjamin how it is really done and the crowd goes nuts.

AJ Styles turns around and then runs as fast as he can at Shelton Benjamin sitting against the bottom turnbuckle in the corner he jumps and is going to or at least try to dropkick him in the jaw while he is down. Though Shelton Benjamin had the wherewithal to slide under the bottom rope in the last second and out of the way- Shelton Benjamin is out of harms way and AJ Styles is in a lot of pain as he base ball slid to the bottom rope one of his legs went left and the other right slamming his groin in the bottom turnbuckle as he sits there in a lot of pain Shelton Benjamin slides back into the ring and then walks right up to AJ who has his back to Benjamin and Benjamin kicks him as hard as he can in the lower back. This makes AJ fall backwards with his back on the mat in the corner of the ring. Shelton Benjamin grabs him by the arms and drags him to the middle of the ring- he goes for a pin fall, the referee slides to the mat and makes the count. 1...........2........,NO AJ Styles kicked out in the last moment. Shelton Benjamin is having a hard time thinking this through and believing this he is banging his hands in the mat. He sees that AJ Styles is starting to move and he has realised what he should do next to try and put him away. Shelton Benjamin back away into the corner of the ring, Shelton Benjamin in the corner of the ring leans forward and is awaiting for AJ Styles to pull himself up to his feet to run at him. Shelton Benjamin doesn't have to wait long as AJ uses the help of the ropes to pull himself up to a vertical base. Shelton Benjamin runs at him and then just before reaching him jumps up in the air and grabs his head he goes to slam him down to the mat below with his finisher move.

AJ Styles when he used the ropes to help him up to his feet is still holding the ropes, AJ doesn't go down with Benjamin as he held onto the ropes and Benjamin just falls flat on his back. AJ Styles grabs both legs of Shelton Benjamin and rolls forward having himself on top of Benjamin with a bridge sort of pin in the corner of the ring...but around the count of one Shelton Benjamin grabs the second rope and AJ has to get off of him. AJ Styles leaves the ring under the bottom rope and to the ring apron, he waits for Shelton Benjamin to get up to his feet near the ropes and when he does he goes for the Styles Clash a flying fore arm from the top rope on Benjamin. Benjamin did get to his feet minutes later and AJ jumped up to the top rope he leaped in the air and then Shelton Benjamin amazingly caught him in mid air and then slammed him back down to the middle of the ring with a T – Bone Suplex. Shelton Benjamin rolls him up for the pin fall....the referee makes the count after the finisher move on AJ Styles...1........2..........3!!!!!!

WINNER SHELTON BENJAMIN!

JR: Did you see that King Shelton Benjamin just beat AJ Styles! This can't be good for AJ going into a title match in just days....

King: That's because he shouldn't even be the champion. I say there should be a height restriction for championship material.

*Santino Marrela's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring*

JR: Oh no not this guy......


[yt]hE4R0eKuTss [/yt]


King: Did you see that JR, he is great... (Laughs)

(That was shown on the tron as it was the first time Santino has ever been in WAW We Are Wrestling that was shown to the crowd a small video package about Santino as he walked down to the ring getting lots and lots of boos from the crowd).

Santino Marrella grabs the mike. Santino gets lots and lots of boo's though he begins to ignore them and talk over them......

Santino Marrella: Thank you...a Thank you! (waves around)

Crowd continue to boo him.....

Santino: tunight I am inada tenada man overde top a rope battle royal.....

JR: He is going to get slaughtered....tonight.

Santino: I just thought I woulda say that I am the best wrestlers alivas tuday THANK YOU.....(he is about to go on but Samoa Joe's music hits and he gets ready for the match as he walks down to the ring but Santino is talking to him while he is walking).

Santino: Ahyes, just the man I was looking a-for Samba Jo you think your a so great but I tella you what I am better because I am Santino Marrella, you say your going to kill us but I say you already killed my brain as when I watch you in the ring..... (soaks in the crowd boo's as Joe walks into the ring, he ignores him and just stands there as more of the ten people's music hit and they move to the ring not long after).

*The Big Show's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring*

During this time a commercial break goes off and after the short advertisements all ten men are in the ring Santino is in his ring gear his overalls and everyone is looking at each other as the bell rings and the over the top rope battle royal begins.

Ten Man Over the top rope Battle Royal

Santino vs. Samoa Joe vs. Morrison vs. Show vs. The Miz vs. JBL vs. Evan Bourne vs. Bryan Danielson vs. Kane vs. Shawn Michaels!

The Big Show is the largest man in the ring right now followed not far behind by Kane, both near seven footers....will be very hard to get over the top rope and that is why as soon as the bell rings and the match begins John Morrison, The Miz and John Bradshaw Layfeild all go at The Big Show they all start throwing rights and lefts at him and start to kick him in the corner everyone is trying to get a hit in on the Big Show. Meanwhile in the other corner Kane is backed up into his corner when Shawn Michaels, Samoa Joe and Evan Bourne and Bryan Danielson are going at it with Kane....It doesn't take long until Kane and The Big Show push everyone back and make them fall over and backwards roll into the middle of the ring with one giant push. Meanwhile Santino Marella acting all cowardly or smart whatever you want to put it leaves the ring under the bottom rope and to the outside – he isn't eliminated but he is out of the fire and out of danger.....for now. Meanwhile back in the ring with everyone down or at least leaning against the ropes backing away from Kane and the Big Show these two giant mastodons look at each other right in the eyes.....Kane uppercuts the Big Show. Only to get punched right back, both of these men get right in each other's faces......Kane sticks his hand in The Big Show's throat and then the Big Show does the same to Kane both of these men are testing each other out in the middle of the ring.

JR: Notice how Santino is standing on the outside of the ring near our announce table...get in there. (screaming at Santino)

King: He is smart why not get in later when half of the people are eliminated.

JR: That's cheating.....

King: Yea well look at everyone else backing away in the corner of the ring and watching Kane and the Big Show fighting each other.

JR: At least they are in the ring......

JBL who isn't a small man to his credit runs at Samoa Joe at the opposite corner going straight past Kane and Show in the middle of the ring he doesn't seem to even notice they are there...him and Joe are going at it and brawling in the corner of the ring while The Miz, Morrison are locking up with Shawn Michaels and Evan Bourne....Everyone has their little spot in the ring and they are all going at it. But the main lock up the crowd are watching are Kane and the Big Show which two of these monsters will blink first make the first mistake and they are possible eliminated. The Big Show kicks Kane in the gut in the middle of the ring Santino Marella is getting up on the apron and is about to get into the ring but The Big Show is about to swing a hard right hand at Kane and when The Big Show pulls his left arm back for leverage he elbows Santino and Santino goes flying off of the apron still in this match but now on the floor on the outside of the ring. The Big Show takes a second or two to look at Santino and then when he turns his attention back on Kane, Kane is in mid running at him and then is about to clothesline The Big Show over the top rope and to the outside but out of nowhere Bryan Danielson who was taking his time and choosing his spot had ran at Kane jumped on his back and has him in a sleeper hold. He manages to hold onto it for a few seconds before Kane grabs Bryan Danielson by the head and then goes up to the ropes and flips him over.....this results in Bryan Danielson going over the top rope and to the outside of the ring being the first man of the 10 to be eliminated.

JR: Bryan Danielson is eliminated! Baw God King.....

King: That is what I expect happening this Sunday too.

BRYAN DANIELSON IS ELIMINATED!

The Big Show knee's Kane in the gut, meanwhile as Bryan Danielson walks to the back, back up the entrance ramp you see John Morrison and Miz double teaming and clotheslining down Evan Bourne. Shawn Michaels at this time had ran over at JBL who had knocked over Samoa Joe with a hard right hand in the corner and had now locked up with JBL. Meanwhile Santino is knocked out or playing possum we don't know but he isn't moving. The Big Show had moments ago had kneed Kane in the gut as hard as he could winding him and making him bend over. The Big Show then grabbed the last years Royal Rumble winner Kane by the head and then threw him out of the ring through the ropes maybe it was mean't to eliminate him but Kane had only gone though the second rope and to the outside of the ring. The Big Show thinks he eliminated him and had continued on his path of destruction over to John Morrison and the MIz. He head butts Morrison and then The Miz tries to punch him a few times as hard as he can in the gut to gain an advantage as he throw John Morrison around like a rag doll. Though The Big Show just laughs and then grabs the Miz picks him up by the arm pits and then places him up on the top rope, mean while Shawn Michaels was not far behind The Big Show and then was banging his foot on the canvas mat below to try and knock him over the top rope with some sweet chin music. But then out of no where Evan Bourne ran at Shawn Michaels and then had double dropkicked him with both feet over. Evan had kicked off of Shawn Michaels and back flipped back on his feet. JBL though then ran at Evan Bourne and clotheslined from hell him over...knocking him out cold. The Big Show at this time had slapped The Miz in the chest and had knocked him over the top rope which he was sitting on and to the outside.

THE MIZ IS ELIMINATED!

King: So who have we got left?

JR: John Morrison, Kane, The Big Show, Shawn Michaels, JBL, Samoa Joe & Evan Bourne

King: Don't forget about Santino he is a big man in this match and could very well win this.

JR: Oh yes, I almost forgot he is still knocked out right in front of out announce tables and Kane is knocked over on the other end of the outside near the entrance ramp. Though I can see that Kane is slowly getting to one knee but Santino is still knocked out.

King: Wouldn't you be if you got elbowed by the Big Show.

JR: I can't argue with that.

The Big Show turns around after knocking the Miz out of the ring and out of the match only to be met by JBL, JBL is punching and kicked and brawling away at The Big Show who is leaning against the ropes. John Morrison runs at The Big Show with a flying for arm and also is helping JBL...these two don't help each other often but it's for a common cause. To try and eliminate the bigger man in this match up, the biggest threat... Samoa Joe comes up moments later followed by Evan Bourne where JBL and Morrison are holding The Big Show's feet where he is and then Joe and Bourne are holding him by the arms trying to hold him leaning back against the ropes. The Big Show is trapped as the crowd chants for Michaels. Michaels kicks himself up to his feet after being knocked over by Bourne moments ago and runs at The Big Show with his arm out and is going to clothesline him and try to get him over, but just before contact he stops shakes his head like no no no and then takes a step back and finally knocks the Big Show over with a super kick to the jaw. It makes the Big Show fall back half way over the ropes and everyone else is helping to get him over with one last push.


JR: What did you see that....teamwork, everyone had it in for the Big Show.

THE BIG SHOW IS ELMINATED!

At this time of the match Kane had grabbed hold of the top rope and pulled himself up to the apron, Evan Bourne base ball slides over at Kane and dropkicked him in the knee making him on one knee. John Morrison then runs at the ropes and dropkicks Kane in the upper body putting Kane over the apron and back to the outside of the ring...he is still in this match but he is momentarily taken care off. Evan locks up with Morrison as soon as he got up from the dropkick on Kane and then kicks him in the gut, he runs at the ropes but on the rebound before he could even get to Morrison who was groggy in the middle of the ring...Samoa Joe ran at Evan Bourne and had clothesline him over the top rope, but Evan Bourne had held the top rope....having the legs both of his legs dangling over the top rope he is about to "Skin the cat" shades of Shawn Michaels what he did in 1995.... but then out of no where Santino Marella ran around the outside of the ring and grabbed Bourne by the legs and pulled him down. The crowd is booing him and Evan Bourne is forced to leave the ring.....Shawn Michaels leaves the ring and then runs after Santino who cowardly gets chassed around the outside of the ring only for Santino to run back into the ring and Shawn rolls in after him, When Shawn gets up to his feet JBL runs at Shawn Michaels and nails a big boot knocking him over. Santino goes right up to Shawn Michaels who is leaning against the bottom rope and starts to slap him in the face and tell him how great he is.

EVAN BOURNE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!

John Morrison grabs Santino by the tights and pulls him to the middle of the ring in the doggy position. John Morrison picks Santino up to his feet he then throws him in the corner of the ring only to be reversed by Santino to be thrown at the turnbuckles. John Morrison hits his chest hard at the turnbuckles. On the rebound Samoa Joe goes up behind Morrison and gets him in his finisher move where he wraps the legs around the chest and sternum area and chokes Morrison in the neck. He has Morrison in the corner of the ring in the floor with Samoa Joe holding it in tight.....Santino goes up to JBL and tells him, yea let's work together do get Shawn Michaels he tries to form some sort of Alliance..... JBL and Santino go and pick up Shawn Michaels, Shawn punches and kicks away but the two man onslaught begins to be too much when JBL holds his arms back while Snatino punches away at him. JBL backs Shawn against the ropes JBL leans against the ropes while holding Michaels as Santino punches away at him. Santino winds up for a big knocked out punch but then Kane gets back into the match he stands up on the apron and Shawn Michaels ducks underneath the right hand and so did JBL, Santino accidently hit Kane which just pisses him off it doesn't faze him what so ever. Kane just stands there on the apron, grabs Santino by the throat and begins to choke the life away from him.

Samoa Joe at this time of the match had let John Morrison go, he had wanted to get rid of Kane the next biggest and most threatening one in this match up and as Kane's mind set was on Santino from the apron Samoa Joe ran at him meanwhile JBL is beating up Shawn Michaels in the middle of the ring....And John Morrison in out in the corner. Samoa Joe is about to knock Kane over the top rope and to the outside of the ring from the apron which is where Kane is standing at right now but Kane has one hand in Santino's throat and one hand free he puts his other hand out and grabs Samoa Joe by the throat he then pushes both men back to the middle of the ring and this gives Kane time to get back into the squared circle. Kane climbs up over the top rope and to the inside of the ring where he is most deadly. He picks up Santino Marella and then gets him in ready for the chokeslam position....he picks Santino up by his throat and holds him up there for a couple of seconds savouring this moment. Meanwhile JBL comes running up behind Kane and chop blocks him in the back of this knee this makes Kane wobble and shaky he goes down on one knee this also sends Santino back to his feet where Santino wasted no time by huddling over in the corner of the ring. JBL punches and fist closed bashes Kane while he is on one knee...Kane pushes him with all of his strength at the ropes away from him and on the rebound Kane gets a boot to the face which knocks him over on his back. JBL raises his arm in victory, he gets lots of boos.

Shawn Michaels comes up from behind and knocks JBL over with a vicious clothesline, Shawn then kicks himself back up to his feet and then leaves the ring, he goes up to the top turnbuckle and see's that three men are down John Morrison, JBL, Kane he is looking around and the crowd chants JBL as to tell Shawn to hit the flying elbow on him....Just before Shawn could leap into the air Samoa Joe was on one knee from that push over by Kane moments ago and had ran at the turnbuckle Samoa Joe had dropkicked Shawn Michaels ten feet in the air and had sent him flying over the top rope and to the outside.....

JR: Shawn Michaels the favourite this Sunday is eliminated! It's his home town as well this Sunday this can't be good for his confidence.

King:Out You GO! And Good riddens.

SHAWN MICHAELS IS ELIMINATED!

Samoa Joe tries to pick up Kane, he is 315 pounds and plus being knocked out with dead weight added onto it makes it double, Joe has a hard time picking him up but slowly but sure enough he gets Kane to a sit up position. Samoa Joe thinks to himself and realises that he won't be able to pick him up to a vertical base and at this time he goes to work on someone else. He see's Santino huddling and cowering in the corner and he goes up to him to the crowds liking he picks Santino up by his mullet and then Santino holds his arms up in defence and begs for mercy. Samoa Joe then throws him at the ropes and leans forward awaiting his rebound arrival but Santino holds onto the ropes he stops at the ropes putting the brakes on and then he smiles thinking he has out witted Samoa Joe, Kane stands up to his feet behind Joe and then turns him around Kane gets punched in the jaw by Joe before Kane could punch Joe. Joe kicks Kane in the gut and then tries to lift him up on his shoulders near the ropes as Kane leans against the ropes he tries to pick him up and send him over but he is too much and Joe lets him go. Kane picks Joe up and then holding him in the bear hug position rams him in the corner....carrying him and driving his back into the corner of the ring.

Meanwhile, John Morrison goes up to JBL and then starts to stomp away at him...John Morrison goes to the top rope in one jump and with his back to JBL on the mat he hits a split legged moon sult on him. Santino goes up to John Morrison and then picks him up he starts to punch him and then kick him in the gut....he then out of nowhere clotheslines him over...Santino is seen celebrating in the ring as if he just had own the Royal Rumble match itself.

JOHN MORRISON HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!

With only four men left in this match Santino, JBL, Kane and Joe Santino goes up to Joe in the corner and then starts to stomp a mud whole in him and kick him in the corner. Meanwhile Kane picks JBL up and throws him into the corner. Kane takes a step or two back and then runs at the corner where JBL is and then clotheslines him in the corner. JBL is squashed in the corner like a bug. Kane grabs JBL as he takes a step forward from the impact and sticks his hand in JBL's throat he then lifts him high up in the air and chokeslam's him to the outside of the ring and out of the match up. The crowd goes nuts.

JBL HAS BEEN ELIMINATED!

King: No My Man JBL!

Meanwhile Samoa Joe is fighting back he punches away at Santino and then switches position and puts Santino in the corner of the ring, Samoa Joe then gets his face raked and ripped apart with Kane comes up behind him and starts to rake him in the face and pull away at his nose and eyes. Kane then gets elbowed in the side of the head and Joe then puts Kane right where Santino is in front of Sanitno. Samoa Joe then shoulder blocks both men in the corner three times before Kane stopped the fourth one by grabbing Joe's gut as he is in Shoulder block position and lifts him up in the power bomb position and has him as if he is going to power bomb Joe over the top rope. Joe punches Kane a few times in the top of the head before Kane moves ever closer to the top rope Joe is holding on to Kane with his legs around the neck of Kane and is punching him in the head as Joe leans over the top rope over the side. Samoa Joe tries to pull Kane down in a hurricarana like way but Santino comes up from behind Kane and lifts one of his legs slightly up and sends both of them flying over and tripping over to the outside of the ring.

KANE AND SAMOA JOE HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED!


WINNER SANTINO MARELLA!

Backstage in the General Manager Vince McMahon's office
A knock is heard on the door, Vnice is sitting on his lounge chair and says...

Vince: Come in.

The Door flies open and Triple H storms into the room.

Vince: Ahh, the Game what do you want!?

(while this is happening Santino has his arms raised in Victory in the ring, and is walking to the back)

Triple H: What is going on around here? First you give me a three stages of hell match and then you give me a match with RVD.... (being interrupted)

Vince: But you didn't win either of them what makes you in shot for anything.

Triple H: I am a former WAW Champion damn it.....I am the Game I should be automatically in the Main Event I don't have to prove myself any more I already have that spot should be locked for me!

Vince: Well then we will see if you really are that damn good at the Rumble won't we?

Triple H: So I am confirmed for the Royal Rumble?

Vince: Yea I guess, just get out of my office......

Triple H is about to open the door and leave when a huffing and panting Santino Marella jumps into the room. HHH looks at him.

Santinio: What are you looking at? I am Santino Marella you a play a to much games I don't evena like your games.

Triple H is getting mad.

Santino: You go back home and play your three H, Hungry Hungry Hippoes....

Triple H is about to knock Santino out when he picks him up by the collar on his shirt and puts him up against the wall, Vince tells him to get out and he leaves.

Santino: MR Macman,

Vince: What now?!

Santino: Dida you see that, I beat everyone in the ring I am strong like a stallion (flexes his muscles)

Vince: GEEEETTTT OUTTTT!!!!!!!!

(He leaves)

Brock Lesnar makes his way down to the ring with his music "Here comes the pain" He gets lots of boos. He doesn't seem to care he just wants to make impact and cause pain on anyone that is standing in his path.

"Colt Cabana's music hits" He gets some cheer and some boo he has only been here for two weeks and they really arent' sure what to think of him yet. The only reason they are cheering for him is because they like him better then Brock Lesnar.

Match – 4
Brock Lesnar vs. Colt Cabana

Brock Lesnar is the first one to get into the ring, as Colt Cabana's music hits and he gets a half half mixed reaction from the crowd he walks down to the ring stiff like a robot he tries to act all animalistic like and tries to make fun of the Animal Brock Lesnar. This doesn't make Lsenar happy one bit and when Colt Cabana rolls into the ring under the bottom rope Lesnar jumps on him with kicks before even letting him get up to his feet, once Lesnar made contact with Cabana the bell rand and the match up began. Brock Lesnar lets him go and after a second or two Colt Cabana gets up to his feet, he smiles and is making light of the situation as he looks across the ring at the animal Brock Lesnar- Brock just stares a whole right through him taunting and flexing his huge chest muscles. Colt Cabana runs at Brock but Brock shoulder blocks Colt Cabana over to his back in the middle of the ring because Brock is like running into a Brick wall.

Colt Cabana rolls over onto his back as Brock Lesnar runs at the ropes, Colt Cabana continues to stay on the mat as Brock keeps running at the opposite ropes where on the rebound Colt jumps up to his feet and dropkicks him in the jaw Brock Lesnar is still on his feet but he is barely he is leaning against the ropes groggily. Colt Cabana gives him a few hard right hand chops to the chest and grabs Brock's left arm. He throws him at the ropes but the power of Lesnar is too much he can't move him. Brock Lesnar just pulls Colt towards himself and then holds his right arm out and nearly takes Colt's head off. He clotheslines Colt Cabana down with hard authority.

Brock lesnar starts to stomp on Colt Cabana he kicks him in the chest and in the ribs as hard as he can about four times before grabbing him by the head and then picking him up with ease to his feet, a full grown man up to his feet with ease. Brock Lesnar then picks him up in the spine buster position and drives his body all the way to the corner of the ring ramming his back into the turnbuckles as hard as he can. Brock Lesnar then shoulder blocks him and battering rams his shoulder into Colt Cabana's sternum as hard as he can a few times before the referee makes the save and breaks it up he gets in between him and Colt Cabana and tells Brock Lesnar to back off and let him out of the corner. Colt Cabana then while Brock is complaining to the referee jumps over the referee and punches Brock in the jaw. Brock Lesnar staggers back a couple of steps and the referee moves out of harm's way while Colt Cabana ran and goes to kick Brock in the gut. Colt Cabana though gets his leg caught just before impact and Colt Cabana is hopping on one leg.

Around the ring while trying to throw punches at Brock Lesnar but Lesnar just leans his head back while holding his left leg and Colt can't do anything about this happening. Brock uses his amateur wrestling background to put his leg behind Colt Cabana's only good leg the one that he is standing on and trips Colt Cabana over on his back. Brock Lesnar then jumps on him and starts to pummel him with hard right hands to the upper body and he sits on his chest while smashing him to bits and pieces. Colt Cabana holds both of his arms up to his face to protect his face, Brock Lesnar after a while feels he has done enough damage to Colt Cabana and gets off of him.

Brock Lesnar after a couple of seconds see's that Colt is on one knee. Lesnar runs at the ropes to the side of Cabana and goes to knock him back down and over with a hard knee shot to the face but Cabana grabs hold of the knee and then with one of his arms pushes him back tripping him over. Cabana gets right on him and does to Lesnar what Lesnar was doing to him moments earlier punching him in the upper body all around like there is no tomorrow. Though the unnatural power that Brock Lesnar posses just puts both of his hands in the stomach of Cabana and just kick flips him over his head sending him flying to the corner of the ring. Cabana isn't hurt but Brock Lesnar got him off of him. Cabana can't believe it as he is realizing the strength that Lesnar has. Cabana doesn't let Lesnar get up to a vertical base and when Lesnar is in the push up position Cabana runs at him and gets him in a head lock think about a bull dog position but on the mat.

Brock Lesnar just lifts Cabana up to his feet but Cabana holds onto the hold as both men are on their feet respectively. Brock Lesnar puts his hands under the legs of Cabana as he stands in front of him in a Bull dog position and lifts him up Lesnar does. Lesnar picks him up with ease like a baby, Lensar then drops him back to the mat on Brock Lesnar's knee which was there waiting for him he nailed him with an innovative back breaker. Brock Lesnar goes for the first pin fall in this match up. 1.................2..........,NO Colt Cabana just kicked out. Brock though can't believe it. He is seen going up to the referee and backing him into a corner.

JR: Don't do anything you will regeret later on.

King: That referee should have counted to three......

JR: Looks like Lesnar is about to snap.

Though Colt Cabana grabbed Brock's tights and pulled him down with a school boy pin fall holding the tights and trying to get a win and using the tights as leverage the referee makes the count. 1........2...,NO Brock Lesnar gets his hand on the bottom rope after backing the referee into the corner he was still in arms reach of the ropes. Colt Cabana knows now that Brock is very dangerous on his feet and gets right up on his feet and does whatever he can to try and continue to momentum he has going. Colt Cabana grabs Lesnar by the legs and drags him to the center of the ring. Colt Cabana runs at the ropes and then hits a leg drop on Brock Lesnar in the chest area. Colt Cabana instantly goes for another pin fall after hooking the leg. 1..........2.,NO Brock Lesnar kicked out at the count of two. Colt Cabana picks Lesnar up and goes to end this match right here and right now with a power bomb like manoeuvrer. He has lesnar in between his legs. Cabana is about to lift him up when Lesnar just stands up on his feet and then instead of sending Cabana flying to the other end of the ring with a back body drop Lesnar puts his arm around Cabana's head so he will stay on his shoulders and now standing up on his feet in the middle of the ring he has Cabana in position for his finisher move the F5.

Brock Lesnar has Colt Cabana high up in the air, Colt Cabana looks like he is knocked out with his eyes closed he isn't even moving though Brock doesn't know he is playing possum. Brock is about to use his devastating finisher move on Colt Cabana the F5. He swings him in the air but Colt Cabana was playing possum he reverses by grabbing Lesnar's head with his right arm and has him like in a DDT position but he doesn't quite hit a DDT, he wraps his legs around Lesnar's chest and has Lesnar wrapped up in a front ways Dragon Sleeper hold. After minutes Brock Lesnar seems to be fading as he stands there in the middle of the ring with Cabana's legs wrapped around his chest and Cabana's arms around his head. And the referee ends this match up by Submission when Lesnar looks like he is fading and knocked out.

WINNER COLT CABANA!

JR: I can't believe it King, Colt Cabana overcame odds and is now 2 – 0 here on WAW.

King: Shawn Michaels will have his hands full this Sunday at the Royal Rumble.

MVP's music hits "Im coming" he is followed not far behind him by his tag team partners for tonight The Brood, Gangrel and Kevin Thron. They get boo'd like crazy definitely the biggest of the night.

JR: Here comes JBL's Cabinet.

"One of a kind hits" And the crowd blows the roof of as Rob Van Dam makes his way down to the ring.

JR: Look King, Its RVD.

King: Yea the man who cheated his way into the Royal Rumble main event match with Cena and Angle. I hope that he loses this Sunday because of it.

JR: What match where you watching......

(King doesn't answer or at least if he does no one can hear him when the crowd once again blows the roof of for this man.)

"Cena's music hits" And the WAW Heavyweight Champion John Cena make his way down to the ring with the belt around his waist.

JR: Look it's our World Champion.

King: Not for long Kurt Angle is going to win it back.

JR: What makes you so sure?

King: He is angle what more can I say.

JR: Well that's Sunday but tonight it's a 3 on 2 Handicap match and we don't even know if RVD and Cena can get along without blowing a fuse. Maybe we will have a preview for the Royal Rumble here tonight?

MAIN EVENT MATCH
ROB VAN DAM & JOHN CENA VS. MVP, GANGREL & KEVIN THORN

RVD and John Cena do scissors, paper and rock to decide who will start this match up first. RVD wins and Cena goes onto the ring apron. The bell rings and the match begins but even before RVD could even think about going up to the other legal man Kevin Thorn, Cena slapped RVD in the back and then RVD is shocked as Cena gets into the ring with a blind tag. He walks up to Kevin Thorn and locks up with the 6 footer in the middle of the ring. Kevin Thorn who is much bigger then John Cena starts to elbow him in the side of the head while Cena is punching him in the gut seeing who will blink and lose first and get the advantage for their team. Kevin Thorn backs Cena back into his corner where Kevin punches Cena away in the corner where RVD is. Cena gets kicked in the gut a couple of times and punches in the fore head to a sitting down position. RVD then tags in Cena before he can realize what is happening and RVD kicks thorn in the jaw from the apron, RVD gets into the ring through the second rope and RVD throws Thorn at the ropes after he is holding his jaw from that hard kick by RVD. RVD leans forward hopping to send Thorn flying with a back body drop but Thorn puts the breaks on at the ropes. At this time of the match up Cena is getting to his feet in the corner shaking off the blows from Kevin Thorn Cena goes up to him but the referee gets in there before Cena does and tells Cena to step back on the apron. Cena is only now realising that RVD had tagged himself into the match and Cena is not happy but he gets back to the apron. While this is happening Kevin Thorn went up to RVD who is leaning forward in the middle of the ring and had kicked him hard in the shoulder sending him flying back.

Kevin Thorn walks on his knees over to his corner of the ring and tags in his tag team partner MVP, Montel runs into the ring and wastes little time to attack Rob Van Dam. He goes straight on him and even with RVD in the ropes MVP starts to kick away at him but he must stop before the count of five. MVP picks RVD up to his feet, He then throws him into his corner where Thorn and Gangrel are holding him in place while MVP runs and boots him in the jaw while RVD is standing up on his feet. RVD almost gets a tooth knocked out as he falls crashing hard to the canvas mat below. MVP is talking trash to him as Cena is about to run in and make the save for his partner, the referee stops him as Cena has half of his body in through the second rope and then while the referee is distracted MVP begins to choke away at RVD but he stops when the referee does turn around. MVP moments later picks RVD up by his hair and tags in Kevin Thorn who comes in to the ring and punches RVD in the ribs. This sends RVD crawling back to his corner as he holds his gut. Thorn walks up to RVD and grabs his legs and drags his body back to the middle of the ring, He then hooks the leg for the pin fall but RVD kicks out before the count even starts. Kevin Thorn picks RVD up and then has him in a bear hug, RVD is thriving in pain. John Cena runs into the ring though after a few seconds and out of nowhere Cena shoulder blocks Thorn in the back of the leg, this makes RVD fall on Thorn in the middle of the ring. RVD gets off of him and then runs at the ropes, he on the rebound rolls forward and expects to hit a rolling thunder move on Thorn, he does so and Thorn is in a lot of pain.

Kevin Thorn holds his arm out trying to get the tag to one of his partners as RVD slowly crawls to his side of the ring, RVD gets to his side of the ring and tags in his partner John Cena. Cena runs at Thorn but in the last second he tags in Gangrel just as Cena was being tagged into the match. Gangrel runs at Cena who then clotheslines Gangrel back down, MVP runs into the ring and he gets kicked in the gut. Cena runs at the ropes and behind MVP grabs his head and rolls over MVP he hits a front face bull dog like move (forgot the name). Cena puts Gangrel on MVP and then leans down on both of them. He moves his hand over his face and does the You can't see me taunt. He moves backwards two steps slowly at the ropes and expects on the rebound to knock them both with a five knuckle shuffle Kevin Thorn standing on the apron pulls the ropes down and Cena goes flying over the top rope and to the outside of the ring near the entrance ramp. The crowd boo's this act. Rob Van Dam runs at Thorn and then dropkicks him in the knee this sends Thorn off of the apron and thorn hits his face on the ring apron. He is on the floor near Cena. RVD runs at the ropes and after looking at the crowds great response he is aiming to fly over the top rope and land on Thorn but as he runs at the ropes MVP trips him over.

The referee keeps on counting Cena the legal man out. MVP starts to kick away at RVD in the middle of the ring while Gangrel does the same. At the count of 7 Cena is moving up to a vertical base with the help of the ring apron for leverage he pulls himself back into the ring. He then runs at Gangrel the legal man and knocks him over. He then punches MVP down and then see's RVD lying there on the floor he shrugs his shoulders like oh well expression and then falls on RVD and hits a five knuckle shuffle on him. Who is going to be his opponent this Sunday, When Cena got up MVP ran up at Cena with a big boot the kick to the jaw but Cena ducked underneath the kick and grabbed the very same leg. Cena has MVP in the middle of the ring with the STFU submission hold. Gangrel though comes up behind Cena and kicks him in the back of the head Gangrel the legal man starts to pound and ground away at Cena while RVD and MVP roll slowly away to their respective corners and ring aprons. Meanwhile Kevin Thron is still knocked out.

Gangrel picks Cena up and kicks him in the gut, he runs at the ropes and then hits Cena with a running knee lift to the jaw. He then nails Cena with a neck breaker. John Cena is down as Gangrel jumps on top of him for the pin fall. The referee makes the count, 1..........2.......,NO Cena kicked out at the count of two and a half. Gangrel then picks him up by the head again but Cena starts to fight back he starts to hit him in the gut and then he hits him hard enough to make Gangrel hold his gut as he turns around. Cena stands up and then puts gangrel up high on his shoulders for the FU. Though out of nowhere RVD gets revenge on Cena by running into the ring and then hitting a round house kick on Cena a Vandaminator. It knocks Cena back on the mat with his eyes rolled in the back of his head and Gangrel is on top of him. John Cena though does kick out in the last part of the two count just before the referee could count to three.

Gangrel jumps to his corner and tags in MVP, who is the fresh man in this match up. Also at this time Kevin Thorn is slowly starting to get back up on his corner. Cena is still down as MVP gets in his corner stands there and awaits for Cena to face him- a few moments later MVP runs at Cena ready to boot his head off charging at him like a freight train. He then nails Cena in the jaw and Cena is down once again. MVP goes for the pin fall, the referee makes the count. 1..........2...,NO John Cena kicked out! MVP Can't believe it neither can anyone else that is watching this around the world. MVP grabs Cena by the head and holds him there with one hand as the other hand he tags in the big man Kevin Thorn. Thorn comes charging in he throws Cena at the ropes while leaning forward Cena puts the breaks on and then dives at his corner looking for a tag. RVD gets the tag and then comes into the match he dropkicks Thorn and then jumps at the ropes in the corner where Cena is. RVD goes up to the top rope and goes to finish this match off or at least try to with a Five Star Frog Splash. Cena though out of nowhere pushes RVD off of the top rope. And RVD Is knocked out on the outside of the ring. Cena doesn't seem to care about this match he seems to only care about making his three way match at Royal Rumble easier. The referee then goes up to John Cena and tells him that after he pushed RVD off of the top rope he technically touched him and that is considered a tag into the match. Cena is pissed but he does his job and gets into the ring. He goes up to Thorn and then puts him up on his shoulders. He then FU's him to the mat below. He goes for a pin fall and the referee makes the count. 1............2.........3

WINNERS RVD AND JOHN CENA!

As Cena stand on the top ropes and get the crowds reaction to their match up, MVP Gangrel and Kevin Thorn leave in embarrassment as they had just lost. Moments afterwards RVD and John Cena lock eyes RVD goes up to Cena and they go face to face.

JR: Looks like we are getting a preview for the Royal Rumble right here and right now.

RVD points at himself as the crowd chants along with him R.....V....D in Cena's face. Cena smiles and gets back at him with a You Can't See Me taunt after raising his championship belt showing RVD that he is the champion he is telling RVD to his face that he will be the Champion after the Royal Rumble is over as well.

A few moments later Kurt Angle the third man in the Royal Rumble match for the title is seen on the entrance ramp. He claps both men and gives them a round of applause for their match up. Kurt Angle is smiling as the show goes off the air.

JR: Thats all thanks for watching and we will see you all this Sunday at the ROYAL RUMBLE!

*Show fads to black as the WAW logo is shown on the screen.*

[-TJ-]

CM Punk vs. Jeff Hardy - Non title: Great opener and great way to start a match for the Hardcore title. Jeff Hardy FTW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Edge and Christian/Priceless/Mizark promo: Lol it was pretty funny. Poor Henry woulda got a kazoo instead of a beat down from Edge and Christian if he woulda olny open the present. at King luaghing at the crappy Markie and the Chocolate Factory joke.

Shelton vs. AJ - Non title: Very weird saying that nothing good's going for Shelton and he knocks off the IC Champ with no Hussan doing? But still great match, but it seemed like a filler in my books.

Santino Promo: Coming from a guy who has done a funny promo with santino before I have to say yours very close to the real deal. I barely understood anything and he ended up getting booed heavily. Very good.

tenada man overde top a rope battle royal: Even greater after that promo is Santino won this XD. Come on the Best in the World is eliminated first? How nice........ Lol though I liekd the match and I liked it being a preview of the Royal Rumble, I just hope it isn't an exact preview with Santino a-winnang the-a Royal the-a Rumble-a.

The-a Game/Mr MACMAN/ Marella Promo: Funny and usefull too. It cleared the air about Trips being in the Rumble and shows how much no one likes Santino.

Colt Cabana vs. Brock Lesnar: Very unique and shocking that Colt won and I hope for big things from him.

Main Event Handicap: Very interresting for Gangrel and Thorn to be in it. I never read a btb with these two in a big time m/e. RVD and Cena won though was pretty shocking considering tthe three people they face are awesomeness in a can.

Overall Thoughts: Very Very great show to heading into the Royal Rumble. I hope big things from you. As you promised, review my OMEGA show.

Rate - 8/10

The Royal Rumble
Live From Sanantonio Texas
January 29th 2008

Official Preview, The Show will be scheduled for this Sunday.

30 Man Royal Rumble match, the second of its kind in the WAW We Are Wrestling history. The last time it happened was this time last year and the winner was the number 14# Entrant the Big Red Monster Kane. Now Kane is on a path of destruction ever since then because when he won the Royal Rumble and got his Wrestlemania match his match well had a bit of a questionable ending and Kane's path of destruction comes to a screeching halt now as the Royal Rumble comes again? Can he do it for the second time and finally win himself the gold? Or will someone else do it, if so who?

Another favourite coming into the Royal Rumble match is Shawn Michaels, a two time winner of the Royal Rumble in 1995,6. He is in his home town of Sanantinio Texas and the crowd will be gunning for him to win it. But then again it could very well not happen because history has told us that the Royal Rumble pay per view has not been the best event for Michaels as this time last year at the 2007 Pay Per View Royal Rumble event he lossed his World Title to The Undertaker. So who else could it be if its not Michaels? Or will it be Michaels? Colt Cabana has been on a roll ever since debuting he has beaten both Lesnar and Michaels and he has his hands full at the Rumble because he has to take on Michaels and if he loses he will get a one digit spot. So much on the line with a WM 24 Spot hanging in the ballance.

But the man who is getting the most hype is well no one knows who it is, thats the thing we only know that the number 30th entrant will be someone who is currently not on the roster. He was confirmed that he was once on the Roster and is now back at the Royal Rumble. Who can it be? What can it be? Sparks will be flying with 30 Men one match one goal WRESTLEMANIA!


World Heavyweight Title Match - Cena (c) vs. Angle vs. RVD
John Cena the current WAW Heavyweight Champion of the world has his hands full and his title on the line in quite possibly his most difficult match since his Wrestlemania match with Bret Hart. John Cena won that title off of Kurt Angle a meer four weeks ago at the Dejavu Pay Per View event. Now Kurt Angle has the right of a rematch clause which he is cashing in this Sunday at the annual Royal Rumble. But Vince McMahon chairman of the board and general manager had better ideas. Vince McMahon thought it would make things more interesting if he would take 8 Superstars and put them into the tournament and the winner gets into the Angle and Cena match and makes it a triple threat match.

The winner was Rob Van Dam of the tournament, but his road to the Royal Rumble hasn't been easy he had to topply the Game HHH, Jeff Hardy and John Bradshaw Layfeild with the help of his cabinet but he overcame odds proved everyone wrong and Rob Van Dam is a very big player here this sunday. But who knows Cena might retain or even the Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt Angle might retain who do you put your money on?

World Tag Team Championship match up
Team Pricless (Rhodes and Dibiase) (c) vs. Edge and Christian.
Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase Junior have had it easy compared to their opponents this Sunday Edge and Christian. You see Edge and Christian beat not only the Dudley Boys but the Hardy Boys as well in a TLC rematch at Dejavu risked their health and managed to pull off a victory with one thing in mind to go straight for the Tag Team Championships. But there was one problem Team Priceless talked to Vince McMahon and they agreed that Edge and Christian after all that are not tag team championship contender worthy. They have to beat the champions in a tag team match the next show on WAW to get a shot at the gold. That is what they did they got themselves into the match even though the win was by DQ it was a win. Team Priceless then hired Mark Henry to take out the team of Edge and Christian before the Rumble event but Edge speared Mark Henry throught the bathroom cubicle door for his troubles. With Mark Henry out the picture this is a classic 2 vs. 2 match. With the gold on the line anything can happen.

Intercontinental Championship match - AJ Styles (c) vs. Muhammad Hassan.
AJ Styles was in a match three weeks ago with Booker T, Booker T did end up winning but after the match Muhammad Hassan shocked the world coming down to ringside he beat up both Booker T and AJ Styles and then spat on the Title and AJ. He claimed that 'Alah' told him to get the title off of AJ. Now on the very next show AJ Styles was teaming up with Evan Bourne two great high flyers against Shelton Bejamin and Muhammad Hassan. AJ and Bourne had pulled off a Victory by AJ hitting a pele kick and then Bourne hitting a Shooting star press on the down opponent. Now this match was announced for a way to get revenge on Hassan but can he? Will Hassan's sheer strength and brawling style be too much? Find out this Sunday.

Colt Cabana vs. Shawn Michaels
Stip : Loser enters the Royal Rumble with a one digit number. (1 - 9)

Now whoever loses this match you can agree won't have a good chance winning the Royal Rumble, but how this match got together is interesting story. Colt Cabana made his debut win over Shawn Michaels two weeks ago in which many thought was a fluke win over the first ever WAW Heavyweight champion over a year ago. Shawn had asked for a rematch to put his loud cocky mouth in his place and Colt had excepted but with one condition the stip that the loser enters the Royal Rumble early. Shawn Michaels this Sunday is in his home town crowd which will be behind him but Colt Cabana who is yet to be defeated is 2 - 0 at WAW and has momentum going his way. What will happen when they meet up once more in the squared circle?

Quick Preview Card for you guys if you want to make predictions.

First and foremost I love seeing Angle as champ and I dislike Cena lol. So i think thats my basis for choosing Angle.

I think Team Priceless should retain. Although the E&C are great, i like it when younger talent gets put over.

A Solid heel and could do wonders with the IC title if properly booked

Colt Cabana vs. Shawn Michaels
Stip : Loser has to enter the Royal Rumble with a one digit number.

Once again I like seeing younger talent being pushed. Also I can see you using the whole Michaels may or may not go the distance and really play it through the rumble.

 

[The Rated R CMStar]

Some of the build up for the matches has been sketchy. You booked HBK as the favorite but then he loses in the Battle Royal earlier than Santino Marella. Makes no sense if you ask me. I fear than you plan on giving us a "Wrestlemania moment" like making Taker go 15-0-1 and have Marella main event. Then again, there's still the surprise entrant.

Colt Cabana...too much in very short time. He's push seems way too rushed, he went from jobber to defeating Brock Lesnar. Sad thing is, I believe he will defeat HBK.

Edge and Christian...please end it. Go singles.

Colt Cabana and Shawn Michaels circle the ring a couple of times to feel each other out, the last time and the only other time these two where in the ring together was two weeks ago and Colt Cabana pulled off a victory. Colt Cabana and Shawn Michaels walk up to each other in the middle of the ring, Colt Cabana and Shawn Michaels hold their respective hands up and then slowly and cautiously put them locked together as they have a test of strength between themselves. It is a back and forth contest in the middle of the ring as Colt Cabana pushes Shawn down and then Shawn comes back up and pushes Colt and shows his strength, Colt Cabana feels he needs to end the test of strength as he kicks Shawn unexpectedly in the gut catching Michaels off guard. Colt Cabana then punches Shawn Michaels hard in the top of his head as Shawn leans forward, Shawn Michaels gets sent on his back in the center of the ring. Colt Cabana seems to have the early part of this match in the bag. He (Colt Cabana) runs at the ropes and just before he got to Shawn Michaels's body laying there he went on his tippy toes and then dropped a hard knee to the top of the head hurting the head of HBK even more. Shawn holds his head as he rolls around the ring in pain. Colt Cabana smiles as he is pleased with how this match is going. Shawn Michaels with the momentum of the knee shot managed to get himself into the corner of the ring once rolling around in pain Shawn is now sitting against the bottom turnbuckle holding his head. Colt Cabana comes up to him, he grabs him by the head and smiles as he pulls Shawn back up to his feet but the inexperience of Colt Cabana will cost him as Shawn Michaels pulls Colt Cabana by the tights that he is wearing down so he would head butt the second turnbuckle. This gives Shawn room to get back to his feet and get in the middle of the ring.

Shawn Michaels goes up behind Colt Cabana who is leaning forward bent over with his head in the turnbuckle; his back is turned on Michaels. Michaels turns him around so he would face Colt Cabana and then puts him in the corner of the ring standing on his feet eye to eye with Michaels. Shawn Michaels punches him a couple of times and then chops away at his chest. Colt Cabana has the skin almost chopped right off of his chest. His chest instantly turns bright red; Colt Cabana then out of nowhere turns the tables and quickly flips Michaels into the corner. Colt Cabana starts pummeling Michaels with hard shots to all of his body making Michaels groggy. Colt Cabana throws him at the opposite corner Shawn puts his arms out in front of him stopping himself at the top turnbuckle. Colt Cabana runs at Michaels but Michaels as he had put the brakes on had elbowed Colt Cabana in the side of the head. The momentum of Colt Cabana running at Michaels made it even more of an impact and Colt Cabana just falls down to the mat near the corner of the ring. Shawn Michaels turns around puts himself up on the second rope and then drops himself on top of Colt Cabana without anything fancy just falling on him cross body position and squashing him on the mat. Shawn Michaels goes for the first pin fall in this match up. The referee makes the count. 1………..2... (At this time Colt Cabana had gotten his foot on the bottom rope)

Shawn Michaels gets off of Colt Cabana, he goes to the other side of Colt Cabana not facing the corner of the ring he then drags Colt Cabana to the middle of the ring by the right arm and right leg. Shawn Michaels runs at the ropes, on the rebound Colt Cabana rolls onto his stomach and then Shawn steps over him and keeps running at the other ropes opposite him. On that rebound this time Colt Cabana jumps up to his feet and grabs Michaels left arm and sends Shawn Michaels flying to the other side of the ring with an arm drag. Shawn Michaels instantly gets up to his feet and then begins to clap for Cabana as both men show respect to each other. The fans are really getting into this fast paced match up. Colt Cabana goes up to Shawn Michaels and Michaels meets him half way as they both walk up to each other, Shawn Michaels throws a punch at Colt Cabana but Cabana ducks underneath the left arm and gets behind Shawn Michaels. He then behind Michaels grabs the right arm of Michaels and puts it behind his back getting him in a hammerlock arm bar. Shawn Michaels is in a lot of pain and is with his left arm trying to elbow or make contact with Colt Cabana. Colt Cabana though ducks underneath one of the left arm shots and still holding the right up he has Shawn Michaels in a position where it almost looks like a bear hug. Colt Cabana runs at the ropes with Michaels like this and drives his spine his lower back into the turnbuckles the very same lower back that put Michaels on the shelf for four years and he has had surgery on. Colt Cabana lets go of Michaels after he is holding his lower back in the corner. Cabana takes a step back as Michaels tries to walk out of the corner all groggily but Cabana leans forward and shoulder blocks Michaels back into the corner giving his shoulder all the way into the gut of Michaels more than once Michaels is really hurt and stuck in the corner.

Colt Cabana is forced to get out of the corner and the referee gives Michaels a chance to get out as the referee steps in between both men. Cabana doesn't want to get disqualified. Colt Cabana holds his hands up like I'm innocent to the referee he then see's Shawn slowly getting out of the corner walking out and when Shawn is leaning against the ropes he goes right up to him and kicks him in the gut. Colt Cabana grabs him and throws him as hard as he can at the opposite ropes. On the rebound Colt Cabana kicks Shawn Michaels in the gut and stops him in the middle of the ring. Shawn Michaels is bent over and Colt Cabana hits a DDT on him. He rolls him up for the pin fall, the referee makes the count. 1………2….,NO Shawn Michaels kicked out at the count of two and a little bit. Colt Cabana grabs Shawn Michaels up to one knee by the hair on his head. He tries to put him away right here and right now with one of Colt Cabana's trademark signature moves the Power Bomb. He lifts him up and then Shawn Michaels high up in the air starts to punch and elbow Colt in the top of his head to try and make him groggy and let go off him. Shawn Michaels manages to jump off of Colt's shoulders and then land behind his back. Colt turns around to meet him but he gets hit in the face for his troubles he gets knocked over after an inverted atomic drop.

Shawn Michaels begins to tune up the band, to try and hit Colt Cabana with some sweet chin music, with Colt Cabana on his back in the middle of the ring Shawn and the crowd start to get behind it and wait for Colt to get up to his feet. As soon as Colt is on his feet he sees Shawn about to run at him with the leg up in the air but then Colt Cabana out of desperation goes back down and then rolls out of the ring under the bottom rope. He is happy with himself as he thinks he has outsmarted Shawn Michaels. Then as Colt Cabana is resting up Shawn Michaels leaves the ring also to go out after him he leaves the ring on the other end that Cabana did and then runs around the outside of the ring and when he is about to meet Colt Cabana with a clothesline Cabana gets hit with a clothesline that was with running impact and Cabana gets sent inside and out on the outside of the ring. Shawn Michaels gets a great crowd reaction as he rolls Colt Cabana into the ring under the bottom rope, Colt then crawls to the other side of the ring sitting against the bottom rope and as Shawn walks up to him he begs for mercy holds his hands up and doesn't want any more of this. Shawn Michaels just grabs Colt by the head and pulls him to his feet, Colt Cabana on one knee starts to try to fight back with hard shots to the lower abdomen one of those shots maybe was a little low and it made Shawn Michaels groggy and hold his gut. Colt Cabana then kicked him in the gut and hit a snap suplex. He goes for the pin fall, the referee makes the count. 1……….2…..,NO Shawn Michaels kicked out at the count of two.

Colt Cabana is having a hard time believing this, Colt Cabana does something he usually doesn't do he leaves the ring goes up to the apron and climbs the turnbuckles to the top. With Shawn Michaels seemingly down right now he jumps into the air with a leg drop in mind. Though Shawn Michaels in the last second moves out of the way and Colt Cabana crashes and burns in the middle of the ring. He hit his ass on the canvas mat really badly and he is in a lot of pain sitting on it. Shawn Michaels then moments later gets up to his feet he picks Colt Cabana up and then scoop slams him in the middle of the ring. Shawn Michaels is the one now who leaves the ring and goes up to the turnbuckles. Shawn Michaels jumps into the air and bam hits the diving elbow to the heart on Colt Cabana right on the money. Shawn Michaels then stands up jumps up to his feet and begins to tune up the band once again.

Shawn Michaels has Colt Cabana over on his back in the middle of the ring, Shawn Michaels looks to his home town crowd as they cheer HBK HBK HBK HBK, Shawn leaves the ring he goes up to the top turnbuckle and then gets his feet and body in position for the diving elbow to the heart of Colt Cabana. He leaps up high in the air and "Bam" hits it. Colt starts to roll around the ring in pain holding his chest and Shawn Michaels gets up to his feet. In fact kicks himself up, he then stands near the corner of the ring and waits for Colt Cabana to get up to his feet as he tunes up the band going for some Sweet Chin Music. Bang Bang Bang Bang on the mat Shawn Michaels tunes up the band faster and faster as the crowd start to chant his name louder and louder. As Colt Cabana on the other end of the ring has no idea what is happening he uses the help of the ropes to pull himself up to a vertical base. Shawn Michaels runs at Colt Cabana with the leg held up high and just before he could hit Shawn with the sweet chin music super kick Colt ducked underneath the leg of Shawn which was going to kick his head off and lifted Shawn Michaels up. If you can't picture it Colt has his head in between Michael's legs and had lifted Michaels up in the air. Colt Cabana takes him over to the middle of the ring and slam to the middle of the ring on the mat Shawn Michaels gets power bombed. Colt Cabana rolls both legs up for the pin fall. The referee makes the count, 1………2……,NO Shawn Michaels kicked out at the last second. Colt Cabana can't believe it. He seriously can't and neither can anyone else…Colt Cabana grabs both legs of Shawn Michaels he goes for his submission finisher move the clover leaf. Similar to the Texas Clover leaf Sting used in WCW it's like a half Boston crab, sharp shooter. He turns Shawn onto his stomach and Shawn is thriving in pain from his feet to his lower back he is in the middle of the ring locked in tight with that submission hold.

Colt Cabana is applying the pressure as hard as he can, the home town crowd are cheering Shawn on and Shawn doesn't want to give up and tap out but unless he gets to the ropes it will be inevitable. Shawn with his lower back surgery can't hold onto the match for ever. Shawn Michaels screams in pain as he reaches his right arm out as far as he possibly can for the ring ropes to get out of the hold….but Shawn Michaels is still too far away no man can reach the ring ropes from the middle of the ring. Shawn Michaels uses both hands to push himself up into the push up position but then crashes back down to the mat…Its starting to sink in that there is nothing he can do. Colt Cabana smiles as he thinks he has this match up won, The referee goes right down and goes up to Shawn Michaels he asks him if he wants to give up and quit, and lose this match he says NO. The crowd goes wild. Colt Cabana has a distraught look on his face like "oh shit". Shawn Michaels goes for the ropes once again. But he can't reach them; he then puts one arm in front of another and tries to crawl closer and closer to the ropes. Shawn Michaels gets a couple of feet closer probably in arms reach of the ropes before Colt Cabana takes a few steps back and Shawn is sent back into the middle of the ring. Shawn Michaels looks like he is almost out of it his head is on the mat but he refuses to tap out.

JR: Hand in there Shawn you can do it…..

King: Give up Shawn you can't do it (laughs) but if he were smart like he say he is he would know to give up now and then he would be in better condition for the Royal Rumble match itself.

The referee once again goes on his knees near Shawn Michaels and asks him if he wants to give up. The crowd is cheering his name but Shawn Michaels is bent awkwardly for almost 5 Minutes in this hold and he is starting to fade out. Shawn Michaels's head is on the canvas mat and he refuses to give up but there is no sign of life in him. The referee calls for help. A few moments later a couple more referee's come down and then determain that Shawn Michaels is unable to continue, Colt Cabana lets go of Shawn Michaels and Colt Cabana is declared the winner by Submission.

WINNER COLT CABANA!

JR: I can't believe it King…Colt Cabana did it 2 – 0.

King: Yea I told you it would happen.

At this time Colt Cabana leaves the ring with a grin on his face a smile from ear to ear at what he had accomplished, but Shawn Michaels isn't moving and they call for a stretcher to come down.

JR: I hope he can compete in the Royal Rumble match.

King: I told you JR, Didn't I tell you that earlier he should have gave up.

JR: But he didn't give up he never quit he kept fighting until he was technically knocked out as the referee called it.

As Shawn leaves in a stretcher the crowd goes nuts for him as they give him some love.

JR: I just hope we see a rematch between them two once again maybe a final match to declare a winner.

King: We all know who that winner will be…..

Backstage Jonathon Coachman the WAW Interviewer is with the mike in the locker room of CM Punk. When the camera see's Punk they go wild for the Hardcore Champion.

Punk: Coacher, what do you want. (smiling as he holds the Hardcore title on his shoulders)

Coach: During that last match, I went to Vince McMahon's office and he told me to tell you (interrupted)

CM Punk: Told you to tell me what? Coach what was it? That I am not a good chaimpion that I am not Hardcore material because I am straight edge. If that’s what he said I don't care because I have been hearing that all week long and I have been proving everyone wrong.

*Crowd cheers for Punk*

Coach: Actually Punk, that is what I came to talk to you about….

CM Punk: So then we are done talking I just said it and you can leave now I got to go and get ready for the Royal Rumble match.

Coach: Wait one last thing I came in here to say, Vince said he doesn't like you as the champion but he will give you chances to prove yourself.

CM Punk: Why don’t I prove myself by kicking your ass.

*CM Punk Chants*

Coach: um, I don't think you can do that. But you will be up against your first challenge defending that title tonight.

CM Punk: Who did Vince put me up against? (Sarcastically)

Coach: Shelton Benjamin. (Coach smiles and leaves)

JR: Did you hear that King, CM Punk vs. Shelton Benjamin …. Tonight and that is sure to be a slobber knocker.

Christian rolls Cody into the ring and the bell rings and the match begins. Edge goes up to his corner and stands on the apron. Christian goes up to Cody Rhodes who at this time had squirmed his way into the corner sitting against the bottom turnbuckle.

This gives him enough time to get out of the corner and temporarily get into the match up. Cody Rhodes went up to Christian with a hard clothesline knocking him over as Cody charged at him out of the corner as Christian was holding his right eye. Cody Rhodes goes up to Christian starts to kick him in the body, upper body and lower body in fact all around he started to stomp away at him. He the reaches his arm over being not that far away from his side of the ring he reaches his arm over to try and tag Ted into the match but Ted was still weary on the outside floor by Edge and the steel steps.

Edge goes for a pin fall the first of this match up but Cody Rhodes kicked out before the count could barely start even. Edge gets up first before Cody Rhodes does. Edge grabs Cody by the head and drags him over to the corner of the ring with Christian. He puts up on his feet in his corner and then tags in his partner and him and Christian are in the ring beating down on Cody Rhodes in the corner but Edge leaves before the count of five back to the ring apron as Christian is now the legal man in the match up. Christian puts Cody Rhodes up on the top rope and then stands on the second rope, he starts to throw right hands with Cody and then puts Cody's arm around his shoulder (christian) and goes for a super plex to the middle of the ring but Cody ducks his arm out of it and starts to throw rights and lefts at Christian he then begins to head butt him and Christian falls on his back in the middle of the ring.

Edge who is on the apron tries to help out his tag team partner and older brother but he just gets kicked by Cody as he sits on the top rope Edge falls off of the apron, also at this time Ted Dibiase is slowly getting back on the apron he is on his knees on the outside of the ring and has one arm on the ring apron.

Cody Rhodes picks Christian up by the head and shoulders and then throws him at the ropes. Christian on the rebound is about to get clotheslined back down but he ducked under neath the right arm by Cody Rhodes. As Christian blindly keeps running at the other ropes Ted Dibiase pops out of no where on the apron and punches Christian in the jaw, Christian wobbles back as Cody turns around and hits him with a thunderous back body drop.

JR: What team work.

King: That’s why they are the world tag team champions.

JR: There is also a certain ammount of talent expected when your two second generation superstars.

Cody Rhodes starts to kick Christian and attack him with pound and ground assults, Cody Rhodes then stands on Christian with one leg on the chest and then leans out to his partner and Ted leans out to Cody with his arm. Ted Dibiase gets tagged into the match up for the first time so far, Ted DIbiase gets into the ring and then as Christian is slowly in the push up position he runs at him and then boots him as hard as he can in the side the ribbs. Christian just falls back down on his back, near the ropes. Edge is about to come into the ring but the referee stops him half way and while the referee is distracted and Christian is lying agaisnt the bottom rope on the side of the ring Ted and Cody are choking him out from the ring apron. Though they do stop when the referee turns around. Christian elbows Cody in the side of the head as Cody stands on the outside of the ring behind Christian and choking him. Christian then kicks Ted in the gut to give him room to stand back on his feet. Christian slowly using the ropes pulls himself up to a vertical base and then kicks Ted Dibiase in the gut once again. He grabs both of Dibiase's arms and turns him around hopping to nail him with the "unprettier" finisher move. Ted Dibiase just pushes Christian at the ropes as Christian went at the ropes Cody Rhodes after being elbowed by Christian stood on the apron and pulled the top rope down. This sent Christian flying over the top rope and to the ring barricade.

Edge is really concerned he runs into the ring and knocks Ted over with a clothesline and then goes out to Christian to check if he is ok. Weather or not he is that is a different story but Edge doesn't want to lose this match via count out as he gets rolled into the ring under the bottom rope by Edge. Edge quickly runs back to his corner apron and holds his arm out wanting a tag into the match…Ted is down from the clothesline, and Christian is down from well being down before Cody and Edge both have their respective arms out hopping to get tagged into the match while the crowd are chanting Christian as they want him to get the tag not Ted Dibiase. At this time Ted is in the push up position and slowly getting himself over to his corner crawling away in that direction while Christian is doing the same to his corner it's a matter of speed now. Ted jumps up to his corner taking one leap and tags in Cody Rhodes, Cody runs at Christian to do his best to try and stop him from tagging in his partner the fresher man Edge. But in the last second Edge does get tagged in and Edge runs in Cody backs into his corner and he doesn’t want any of this.

Intercontinental Championship Match
AJ Styles © vs. Muhammad Hassan

AJ Styles and Muhammad Hassan circle the ring, AJ gives his Intercontinental Championship belt over to the referee as he holds it up high and the bell rings and the match begins. AJ Styles goes up to Muhammad Hassan and then punches him he gives him a hard right hand to the upper body but Hassan just stands there like a tank a brick wall and laughs. Hassan then grabs AJ by the neck and then throws him into the corner of the ring slamming him against the turnbuckles. Muhamad Hassan starts to pummel AJ Styles with hard shots to the chest area. AJ Styles tries to fight back with punches to the jaw and kicks to the gut but Muhammad Hassan just grabs him by the arm and then throws him as hard as he can hard irish whipping him into the corner chest first. AJ falls down on the canvas mat below from the impact. Muhammad Hassan goes up to AJ stands near where his head is on the mat and raises his arms above his head.

AJ jumps up to his feet with Hassan groggy wobbly, shaky holding his head he runs at him and knocks him down with a hard fore arm shot to the top of the head again. Muhammad Hassan is currently down in the middle of the ring AJ Styles goes right on the advantage he runs at the ropes and then on the rebound he hits a leg drop on him. AJ Styles then tries to slowly turn him over and pick him up by the head he then throws him at the ropes and on the rebound Muhammad Hassan shoulder blocks AJ Styles back down to the middle of the ring knocking him over.

AJ Styles rolled onto his stomach as most people would normally do, when their opponent would keep running at the ropes but Hassan stood there and moved on top of AJ Styles and in the middle of the ring locked him into the cammel clutch. AJ Styles is in a lot of pain and there is nothing he can do about it. He can't reach the ropes from where he is and Muhammad Hassan just keeps appyling more and more pressure to the hold. He doesn't seem to want to let go. AJ Styles with his head bent back in the cammel clutch manages to even his body proportion out and make it slightly less painful when he gets his knees up and he is in the push up position. Making his body in one straight line means he isn't bent back so far and less strain is on the body muscles. AJ Styles still is in the hold though with no where to go and no where to reach the ropes it isn't looking good for AJ Styles this early in the match up. With AJ Styles refusing to tap out Muhammad Hassan is losing his temper he is not happy he wants this match over now and to be champion already. He still holding AJ's head and shoulders in position for it lifts him up out underneath between Hassan's legs and then slams AJ on his back in the middle of the ring with hard impact. Muhammad Hassan rolls him over and then goes for the pin fall, the refereee makes the count. 1………2…….,NO AJ Styles kicked out at the count of two. AJ Styles then gets stomped on and beaten down as Muhammad Hassan stands up and he is not pleased.

Muhammad Hassan picks AJ Styles up by the head and then throws him at the ropes he leans forward bending over hopping to land a back body drop on him but AJ Styles jumped over Muhammad Hassan and stands behind him, when Hassan stands back up right and turns around AJ is waiting for him with his back turned to Muhammad Hassan he out of no where jumpes with one leg and then nails him in the top of his head with a Pele kick. Muhammad Hassan is down, he jumps on him for the pin fall, the referee makes the count. 1……….2…..,NO Muhammad Hassan kicked out at the count of two and a little bit. AJ Styles runs at the ropes he base ball slide dropkicks Hassan in the jaw and does more damage to him. AJ Styles feels he wants to end this match now as he leaves the ring he goes up on the ring apron and then grabbing hold of the top ropes he waits for Muhammad Hassan to get to his feet so he can hit a flying forearm the "Styles Clash" Moments later Muhammad Hassan does wobbly and stagger to his feet. AJ pulls himself up to the top rope in one jump and then leaps into the air, he has his arm out for the move but then Muhammad Hassan moves out of the way. AJ Styles though lands on his feet and when he turns around to meet Hassan, he just gets big booted in the jaw right down. AJ Styles then gets Muhammad Hassan on him for the pin fall, once again AJ Styles down kick out.

Muhammad Hassan leaves the ring he sees that AJ Stil has some life left in him and is getting on one knee, he leaves the ring and in a fit of rage goes up to the announce tables and gets himself a steel folding chair. He lifts it up and then is about to roll into the ring with it and smash AJ's head in. At this time AJ Styles had ran at the ropes and then on the rebound going in Hassan's direction he leaped, jumped in the air rolling over the top rope and over at Muhammad Hassan. He then is about to take Muhammad Hassan down and out but Muhammad Hassan just smashed AJ Styles in the back with the chair as he is in mid air. This causes the referee to ring the bell and this also causes a DQ finish. Muhammad Hassan doesn't seem to care as AJ Styles is on the outside of the ring in a lot of pain.

WINNER BY DQ
AND STILL INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION
AJ STYLES!

JR: AJ Won but at what price? He looks like he is really hurt. A mid air shot to the back with a chair. Look at him lying in front of our announce tables King.

King: I can see, I am so glad this match ended the way it did. I hate to see AJ as a champion JR.

JR: But from a DQ finish AJ Is still the Intercontinental Champion.

King: But like what you said at what price? What condition is he in?

JR: I don't know but look at this King it doesn’t seem that Hassan is finished his job for the night.

Muhammad Hassan still holding the steel chair starts to smash AJ Styles with it more then once as many times as he can until the chair is bent like an L shape. Muhammad Hassan then throws the chair to the ground away and then goes and picks up the intercontinental championship belt from the ring announcer that is currently AJ's. He then waits for AJ Styles to get up to his feet and when he is one knee Muhammad Hassan runs at him with the belt and is about to knock him in the head with it but AJ Styles kicks him in the gut Hassan then drops the title belt on the floor as AJ Styles grabs Hassan's head and bangs it on the spanish announce tables.

JR: Somebody stop them for the love of god somebody stop them.

AJ Styles grabs Hassan and then is about to hit his head on the tables again but Muhammad Hassan just elbows him in the gut and then grabs his (AJ's) arm and throws him as hard as he can irish wipping him at the steel ring post. AJ Styles is busted open as his face bounces off of the ring post. AJ Styles is down as Muhammad Hassan stands on top of him with his arms raised up high like he taunts him. He then spits on him and leaves.

John Bradshaw Layfeild is seen in the back, he is seen with MVP, Gangrel and Kevin Thorn. Jonathon Coachman is seen going up to JBL with the mike, he is getting interviewed.

JBL: My man, Coach.

Coach: JBL what is your plan for winning this years Royal Rumble? Are you going to tell the world?

JBL: Actually its very plain and simple, even an idiot can follow it. I get down to the Royal Rumble I enter the ring I the wrestling god yes that's me I raise hell I smash everyone in the ring and then throw them over the top rope and to the outside.

Coach: That's all well and good but what about the cabinet? What if its you and MVP say the last two in the ring?

JBL: Well these three guys right behind me know what they have to do.
MVP buts in.

MVP: What, apparently I am meant to lay down for you and throw everyone over the top rope and then let you win? I am half man half amazing I don't need to roll in your cabinet to be in the main event I am the main event.
He gets in JBL's face.

JBL: (smiles) I don't care if I have to eliminate you or anyone in the cabinet myself and do the whole Royal Rumble from start to finish I am the Wrestling God and I am better then everyone on the roster. Shawn Michael's home town storybook return to the Royal Rumble will end when JBL comes into the ring and if you or anyone else in there want to try your luck then your just going to get eliminated to you want to know why because I am a WRESTLING GOD! And I don't need you or anyone I can do it all by myself, I just happen to be nice enough to let you guys roll with me.

MVP: You don't need us? Who is the one that beat up Samoa Joe for you? MVP! Who is the one that beat up RVD for you last week? ME! So it looks to me like all that money has gone straight to your head.

JR: Looks like they are not on the same page here. Too much ego right there backstage, they can't agree on anything.

Coach: Come'on guys work together for the better cause because we all know that having partners in the Royal Rumble gives you better chances. (trying to get them to work together)

They all walk off in different directions.

WINNER AND STILL HARDOCRE CHAMPION
CM PUNK!

Backstage in the medics room a doctor walks out and closes the door behind him. He talks to the camera on the condition of Shawn Michaels and how will he be concerning the Royal Rumble match up later on tonight.

Medic: I came from in there (points to the room behind him) where me and other doctors are working on Shawn Michaels, after his match with Colt Cabana earlier in the show he pulled a muscle in his lower back near his kidney's area and he can barely stand up on his feet. He isn't injured right now but if you ask me and all the other professional paramedics standing inside that room right now he shouldn't go into the Royal Rumble match and should take time off for a couple of weeks.

*Boo cause the crowd wants to see Michaels in the rumble*

Medic: We told MR. Michaels that he is in no condition to be in the match. He just got angry and said that he was going to be in that match and win that match no matter what even after losing that opening match and having to start from a one digit number.

*Crowd pop's*

Medic: We told MR. Michaels that we the medics can not stop Shawn from getting into that ring tonight its all up to him but we warned him that if he does manage to even walk down to the ring or crawl he will most likely get injured as he is not 100%. Wheather or not Michaels is in the Royal Rumble is up to him to decide but we can tell you now that if Shawn does turn up in that ring he will be limping and will not be even able to stand up right. Now If you will excuse me I have to get back inside.
