So I got to the arena around 3 to try to get some Autographs but nobody came over and even some of them didn’t bother to acknowledge us. I saw Cena, Miz, Swagger, Kofi, Punk, Truth, Ryder, Ziggler, Otunga, McGillicutty, Ryan, Riley, Bourne, Masters, Bella’s, Kelly, Eve & Phoenix. We got let into the arena around 4 and I was in my seats by 4:15, pretty packed.
The show started at 5 and we were welcomed by Justin Roberts and we did the National Anthem, they didn’t waste time and the show was underway right after.
- Evan Bourne def. Jack Swagger
This was actually a good match and was given time unlike any of their other TV matches. The crowd was hot and heavily behind Evan Bourne. The match ended when Bourne hit the Airbourne, but these two can definitely work when given the opportunity.
Justin Roberts then introduced a Guest Hostess which was Eve. She came to the ring and said that she will be hosting a contest before intermission for a prize. The Bella Twins interrupted and cut a heel promo on her. They were going to attack her but Phoenix and Kelly made the save and Eve made turned it into a Tag Match.
- Kelly Kelly & Beth Phoenix def. The Bella Twins
This was your basic Diva’s Match, nothing was really wrong with it. The crowd wasn’t really into it too much. Kelly got the pin and all 3 Diva’s celebrated in the ring.
- Percy Watson def. Zack Ryder
Zack Ryder got a huge pop as expected. Nobody knew who Percy Watson was at all; I overheard a few conversations asking if he was the guy from NXT. A small “Who are you?” chant broke out. Short Match, again nothing wrong with it; I don’t understand why Percy went over but whatever. Post match Dolph Ziggler attacked Percy on the ramp way and started cutting a promo on how he’s winning the US Title and bringing it to Vickie and taking cheap shots at the city.
- Kofi Kingston © def. Dolph Ziggler (United States Championship)
Before the Match started, Kofi threw his shirt into the crowd and I caught it but it got ripped out of my hands… This was easily the MOTN, these two worked really well together. I’m definitely looking forward to their match at Capitol Punishment because these guys can go. Ziggler mocked Shawn Michaels with a kip up and tuning up the band for Sweet Chin Music. The finish was Ziggler missing SCM and getting hit with the Trouble in Paradise. Again, Very fun match and got a good amount of time.
Eve came out and announced the Contest Rules which were, 4 people would be selected and they had to dance. The crowd would pick the winner and the prize was getting to go backstage to meet your favorite WWE Superstar. 3 of the people sucked, but the little kid that won totally tour that shit up. He got a huge pop and was announced the winner.
- Santino, Vladimir Kozlov & Chris Masters def. The New Nexus
This was actually not that bad of a match and pretty fun. This actually got a good amount of time. Santino got the 2^nd biggest pop of the night, and picked up the win on McGuillicutty with the Cobra.
- Alex Riley def. The Miz Via DQ
This was definitely the worst match of the night and was very boring. It got way too much time and one sided the whole way through. I really don’t think Riley is that good of a worker and feel bad that these guys have a PPV match. If it turns out to be anything like this match then I feel bad for the viewers. Miz cut a promo before the match and easily got the biggest heat of the night, it got so loud you couldn’t even hear the guy. Riley came out and got a pretty big pop, not everybody was behind him though. The finish was Miz hitting A-Ry with the briefcase getting him disqualified.
- John Cena © def. R-Truth & CM Punk (WWE Championship)
This was a very good match, Cena obviously got the biggest pop of the night. I really hope they have this match televised because it worked really well. Lots of “Let’s go Cena” and “Cena Sucks” chant battles. At one point the crowd chanted “You can’t wrestle” at Cena but the little kids joined in and Cena directed the chant at R-Truth and started mocking him. This got a good amount of time and the crowd was into it the whole time. The finish was CM Punk getting a bag of powder and tried throwing it in Cena’s face but Cena hit his hand causing it to go into Punk’s face and hit him with the Attitude Adjustment for the pin. As soon as the match ended I ran up to the guard rail and tried to get Cena to sign my shit but he just stared at me and kept going through the crowd, fuck him.
Overall the show was really fun and went by really fast, I would say it was worth the money but the Cena incident just left me with a bad taste in my mouth…

WWE RAW Memorial Day Preview For 05.30.2011

Tonight’s WWE Monday Night RAW for May 30, 2011 will be live from the Qwest Center in Omaha, Nebraska. What’s in stored for tonight?
Happy Memorial Day! Today the last Monday of May is to commemorate/honor Americans who have died in wars and in service especially those members in the armed forces such as the U.S. Service Members men and women. Today can be seen as a day of sadness to morn loss ones, but it can also be seen as a day to very proud of to celebrate and commend the U.S special armed forces for the capture & demise of the world’s most wanted terrorist known as Osama bin Laden in last month of April 9, 2011. It light of everything that has taken place over the tiresome years of war, one can truly indeed say the words “Geronimo”.
Tonight on RAW, Kharma formerly known as Awesome Kong, is schedule to address the WWE Universe. There has been news spreading like wildfire about WWE Diva Kharma being pregnant. The breaking news came last week when it was also announced here that WWE Diva Kharma who’s real name is Kia Stevens, was indeed pregnant and would obviously no doubt require time off for the pregnancy. Note that no official announcement about such news has been made from Kia herself as yet to the public. Regardless, this has somewhat left a few more in the Universe still asking the question, is Kharma really pregnant, or is that just an internet rumor? Kharma was indeed killing the competition each time she came out to the ring when she made an appearance even though not scheduled for a match. Each time she came out the WWE Universe got behind her as the majority was impressed at the level of power and dominance that she brought to the table. When its all said and done, what will the pernicious force known as Kharma have to say tonight about her un-expected emotional breakdown in the center of the ring surronded by eight (8) other Divas last Monday on RAW?
What is next for Michael Cole? Michael Cole as one might or might not want to say, has been on a role the past couple months getting on the WWE Universe’s nerves as well as the divas and all other personalities as well with his entire gimmicks and loudmouth critic attitude. Has Cole’s character very well have come to an end so to speak?
There were however some moments deserving of laughter nonetheless during a period when The Rock put Michael Cole in his place when he delivered a Rock Bottom followed by The People’s Elbow four (4) weeks ago on RAW. Following the events after that, what truly put the icing on the cake and had the Universe enjoying the moment was definitely when Lawler defeated Cole at Over The Limit PPV and had him kiss the feet. At the PPV Bret Hart locked in the sharpshooter on Cole after he lost and made him kissed the feet of Lawler with a bit of added BBQ sauce from Jim Ross. Last Monday Night on RAW, Michael Cole actually came out says that he wanted to apologize to Lawler, Josh Matthews, Justin Roberts, the timekeeper and to everyone watching at home for his reprehensible (blameworthy) behavior over the last few months. Cole also mentions that he wants to broadcast on RAW again like he has done for years without anymore “Cole Mines” and no more matches. Now that Cole has seemingly gone back to simply commentary, what direction is next for the so called voice of the WWE and play-by-play commentator known as Michael Cole tonight on RAW?
Alex Riley have certainly seemed to have grown a set of testicles so to speak as stated by John Cena, when he gave Miz a beatdown last week on RAW. Ever since The Miz lost the WWE Championship to John Cena at Extreme Rules PPV in a Triple Threat match involving John Morrison as well. The Miz continues to blame Riley for his continued loses to re-capture back the WWE Championship. Last week The Miz crossed the line with all the insults, rudeness and additional demeaning of Riley which seemed to have reached a boiling point and then fired him followed by shoving Riley in the face. Alex snapped and then opened up a can of whoopass on Miz, tearing off his shirt and leaving him laid out in the ring looking up at the ceiling in wonderland! What is next for the so Alex Riley who was labeled as the so called former Vice President of Corporate Communications for The Miz? Will or can Miz even do anything concerning what took place last week on RAW? Also, now that The Miz doesn’t have Riley tagging alongside him as a sort of backup plan and he is no longer champion, what is “Really” next of The Miz?
The New Nexus, David Otunga & Michael McGillicutty are now the NEW WWE Tag Team Champions. Last week on RAW they managed to defeat Kane & The Big Show due to interference from Mason Ryan & CM Punk on the outside. During the match Punk kicked Show in the back of the head allowing Otunga & McGillicutty to deliver a double DDT behind the referee’s back in order to win and become champions. Later on in the night, the upcoming Scott Stanford was interviewing the former champs backstage until Alberto came up with smiles on his face talking in Spanish, then slapped Big Show across the face and ran away like a b***h! The cameras then got knocked down for a while then got back up, as Big Show was seen on the ground holding his knee as it seemed he was hit by Alberto’s Ferrari being driven by Ricardo Rodriguez. It is now however being announced that Big Show is alleged to have suffered an injury to his knee and will be out of action for a few weeks. In case one didn’t know, Big Show real name Paul Donald Wight is now set to be a guest on the latest upcoming USA episode of “Burn Notice”. This stunt backstage can be seen as a way for Big Show take some time off to start filming for his role in Burn Notice and then bounce right back.
It has also been reported as well as various rumors on the internet that CM Punk’s contract is coming to an end and he might be leaving as he has not signed off on a new deal as yet. With that said, there has also been some speculations that Punk might just be next in line for a Championship opportunity which some feel would probably somewhat persuade The Straight-Edge Savior to stay in the game a little while longer. Now that the Nexus as they might say, stole the Tag Team Championships, can CM Punk uplift this group even further all in the motto of “Faith”?
Finally, the anonymous RAW General Manager gimmick still continues to lag on as to the identity behind those emails . What order of authority does the GM have in stored next? What surprises, drama & entertainment are in stored for the WWE Universe? See this and more tonight on Monday Night RAW !
