By: Terry Ring, rajah.com reader
Teddy Long comes out and announces several championship main events and mentions
that since Vickie isn't there, he's running the show.
Deuce vs. Jamie Noble
Noble wins via rollup.
WWE Tag Team Championship/Royal Rumble Qualifier
Morrison & The Miz vs. Jimmy Wang Yang & Shannon Moore
Morrison did this grinding dance for over a minute, he just stood there and
grinded for an extremely long time right in Wang Yang's face. It was obvious since
theres no TV cameras they were having some fun. Miz & Morrison won by Miz's
knee/neckbreaker attack. Lots of flase finishes. Great Match.
Kofi Kingston vs. Kevin Thorn
Kofi wins.
Kenny Dykstra vs. Charles Edwards
No idea who Edwards is, they billed him from Pittsburgh, Pa. He won.
Elijah Burke & Shelton Benjamin vs. Tommy Dreamer & Nunzio
Don't know who won. After the match, lots of E-C-dub' chants.
WWE United States Championship
MVP vs. Finlay
MVP made fun of Johnstown by calling it grey and depressing as well as calling
Jonestown asnd said they had never seen greatness. Finlay interrupts attacks MVP.
Appearently Finlay is completely face now. I got the crowd rilled up with MVP
chants. Which they countered with MVP--suck, MVP---sucks, and so on. MVP got DQ'd
for using a steel chair on his knee.
ECW Championship
CM Punk vs. Chavo Guerrero
Punk jumped in the crowd before this match, letting me and my friend touch his
belt and slap him on the shoulder, etc. Punk won with hi Go to Sleep. Foillowing
the match, he got on his knees and praised the crowd (while posing for ringside
photographer/Smackdown! referee Charles Robinson)
World Heavyweight Championship
Batista vs. Edge
Batista last time he rolled into Johnstown called my friend a fag when he booed
him. This time it got worse, I booed him/flipped him off/flaunted my rated r
merchandise. He got PISSED. I screamed you suck (while taking a picture) and he
said "Hey asshole, why are you taking a fucking picture then?" Then he just gave a
really pissed glare which I admit did scare me. Then, it was time------ The Rated
R Superstar and World Heavyweight Champion Edge! He came out and Batista walked up
to him tapped him on the shoulder and told him something (while pointing to us)
Edge nodded and smiled then stared at us. We chanted Rated R! Rated R! Rated R! He
smiled. Then, he took his shirt off and we to throw it to us and then--- purposely
dropped it on the ground. We counted say we loved him and he screamed "I don't
care! I Hate you!" he kept scvreaming directly in my face. Then, I looked at a
very amused Batista. I flipped him off, then I looked at Edge--- flipped him.
Then, I flipped
them both off. During the match, I continued to cheer for Edge and bow to him. Edge
tried to leave, which Teddy Long stopped by saying if he got counted out or dq'd he
would lose the title. He walked back, but didn't make the ten count! He lost, he
just kinda looked around for a minute then the match got restarted. Batista set up
for the Batista bomb, then the former Majors intereferred never touching Batista
but getting their asses whooped. Finally, Batista Bomb time-------- He sets him up,
WHACK! to the face with the World's title. Referee never saw it, 1 2 and 3! Edge
retains. Batista takes a chunk out of all their asses. Then leaves (no
handslapping or crowd butt kissing----- AWWWWWWW) I can't help, but feel we had
something to do with that. Edge gets water poured on him and is woken up from the
post-match Batista Bomb they leave. They didn't even play his music. Lights come
on, show is over.
We saw Teddy Long, The Fmr. Majors, Shelton Benjamin, Kofi Kingston, Elijah Burke,
Jamie Noble, and Finlay leaving.
