Edge & Chris Jericho win Triple Threat Tag Team Match (New Unified Tag Team Champions)
- Edge and Y2J should create a huge amount of heel heat after winning  the belts.  The two top heels in the Smackdown brand will finally bring some credibility to the tag team division.  Look for disension in the ranks and an eventual feud between the two heels.

Rey Mysterio def. Chris Jericho (New Intercontinental Champion)
- Mysterio is always good as the big little man champ.  With a good gu carrying the Int Strap we should see some up and coming heels enter the mix.

WWE Champion Randy Orton def. Triple H (Three Stages of Hell Match)
- Randy Orton is still champ which doesn’t sit well with me.  His character is bugging me and legacy is stale.  I was hoping Triple H would win this one making a new heel chase him. 

Michelle McCool def. Melina (New Women’s Champion)
-  Umm…. congrats Michelle but I would rather have not had this one on the card.

Jeff Hardy def. World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk (By Disqualification; Punk retains)
- I want Jeff Hardy to win the World Heavyweight Championship and carry it for awhile.  I know he is likely leaving for a break but sending him out with a push would be good for the WWE.

John Cena def. The Miz
- Worst feud in the WWE by far.  Who cares.  I would rather of had another Diva match.  That tells you something.

Commerical Free Raw plus more..

The WWE is fighting through hard times by making sure the fans are happy.  Tonights RAW is commercial free for everyone sitting on their butts at home.  The WWE took the fandemonium to another level by making the event free for everyone in attendance with a ticket stub.

Donald Trump came to address the crowd and made the block-buster announcement that everyone in the crowd would get a full refund.  According to his speech, this will cost the the WWE $250,000. 

To make fans happy they are also having a pay-per-view main event match.  HHH and Randy Orton will fight in a last man standing match.  The WWE is bringing a PPV atmosphere to the weekly show. 

EDIT - The match ended with a double count-out.  HHH could not stand after delivering the pedigree. What a garbage finish for an otherwise stellar match!

Candice Michelle Released!

The WWE has released super hottie Candice Michelle.   WWE released a press release earlier stating they wish her the best in all her future endeavors.

World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of SmackDown Superstar Candice Michelle as of today, June 19, 2009. WWE wishes Candice the best in all future endeavors.

Candice has been injured often in the past couple of years.  She received a super push after appearing in Playboy but a bad fall ended her run.  She was making huge progress before the injury.  If she continues her wrestling career, look for her in TNA very soon.

Vince Sells RAW

On tonight’s edition of Monday Night Raw, Vince McMahon announced that he has sold Monday Night RAW to a mystery buyer.  He would not tell the audience who the “buyer” was right away, but he would tell everyone after the WWE Championship title situation was sorted out later in the show.

Randy Orton took home the HW strap in a four-way match with John Cena, Big Show and HHH.  The mysterious buyer of RAW turned out to be… Donald Trump.  Yes, that is not a joke.  Donald Trump is now a part of the WWE as the “sole owner of the WWE”.

It is highly doubtful this angle will last long since Donald Trump is not a full-time performer.  We’ll see where this will takes the WWE.  The announcement was disappointing as I was hoping for someone with a wrestling history (Paul Heyman maybe?) was taking over for awhile.

A New Champ Crowned

The WWE crowned a new WWE Champion to replace the injured Batista.  Randy Orton became the WWE Champion for the 5th time in a Fatal Four-Way match against HHH, John Cena, and the Big Show.  Orton pinned the Big Show after hitting the RKO for the pin.

Big Show was the shining star in this match.  He hit many big spots including a beautiful spear.  He was pinned in the end but only after a pedigree, a “Attitude Adjuster”, and a “RKO”.

Further Umaga Release Details

June 11, 2009 | Leave a Comment

According to WrestlingInc.com Umaga was released by the WWE because of a second violation of the WWE substance policy.  The WWE usually has a 3 strike policy with the violations of the wellness policy.  The reason why he was released was he refused rehab.  This is the second time a WWE Superstar was released because of refusal to seek rehab.  Jeff Hardy had the same fate year ago before his current run with the WWE.

It is hard to blame the WWE for releasing people who are unwilling to help themselves.  The WWE cannot force people into rehab.  Umaga (Eddie Fatu) is part of a large wrestling family who will hopefully help him get straight.

Vickie Guerrero Leaves WWE

Former Raw General Manager Vickie Guerrero has given her notice to the WWE.  She announced yesterday on RAW that she was quitting her job on the show.  Edge then came out and asked for a divorce.  This tied up all loose ends and left the door open for her departure.

From what I have heard from a few sources, she will be leaving to spend more time with her daughters.  The WWE removed her profile on wwe.com this afternoon at the same time as Umaga’s profile.

From a fans perspective I am happy to see the end of the Vickie Guerrero era.  She annoyed the hell out of me every time she was on TV.  It seemed like she was reading her lines and her facial expressions drove me crazy.  With that being said, she did her job perfectly then.  She was always a heel, so her job was to make me hate her.  Well done!

Umaga Released by WWE

The WWE released today on it’s official website that they have come to terms with Umaga on his release.

World Wrestling Entertainment has come to terms on the release of SmackDown Superstar Umaga as of today, June 8, 2009. WWE wishes Umaga the best in all future endeavors.

Umaga recently lost in a four corners match to CM Punk at last week’s Extreme Rules PPV.  Umaga entered the WWE along with his handler Armando Estrada.  That was easily his biggest push in the WWE.  The WWE creative had problems creating storylines for the “out of control” Samoan.

Batista Out Again

WWE Superstar Batista apparently needs to go under the knife again.  After returning earlier this year from a lengthy quadriceps injury, Batista is scheduled to have surgery Tuesday for a torn bicep.

 

For those who watch the WWE Extreme Rules PPV last night, you were likely shocked by the shortness of the cage match between Randy Orton and Batista.  This is almost 100% likely because of the injury.  Batista is pure power and would not be able to put on a lengthy match without the use of both guns. 

 

Look for the WWE Title to change hands tonight on Raw in another short match.  Could this also mean HHH’s return since the WWE was planning on a babyface carrying the title.  We’ll see…

WWE Extreme Rules Results

The WWE PPV Extreme rules saw 4 major title changes and one unmasking (sort of). 

The WWE World Heavyweight championship changed hand twice in the same PPV.  First the main event of the evening saw Jeff Hardy defeat Edge in a ladder match.  Before anyone could celebrate CM Punk cashed in his “Money in the Bank” briefcase (won a WM25) to pin Hardy and become the new World Heavyweight champ.  That “Money in the Bank” Briefcase is one of the best inventions in modern pro wrestling.  It sure keeps things exciting.

Chris Jericho took home the Intercontinental championship with a victory over Rey Mysterio Jr.  Mysterio was unmasked during the match but he covered up before anyone could get a look at his face.  Last time Mysterio took the mask off he wasn’t allowed back into Mexico so it is doubtful you will see him without it on again.

Batista defeated Randy Orton is a quick steel cage match.  WrestlingInc is reporting that Batista will have surgery on a torn bicep this Tuesday so… watch Raw tonight if you like to see potential title changes.

Tommy Dreamer defeated Jack Swagger to win the ECW championship.  This is Dreamer’s final run so it was a classy move to put the strap on him.  He is one of the fathers of the originals ECdubs so he deserved to go out with the belt.

All together the WWE put on a good PPV.  The Cena vs. Big Show match went on entirely too long but I am sure the WWE had it’s reasons because of injuries in other match.  Cena defeated Big Show by tap out.

Official WWE Results:

- Jeff Hardy def. Edge; CM Punk cashes in Money in the Bank to become new World Heavyweight Champion
- Batista def. Randy Orton in Steel Cage Match (New WWE Champion)
- Tommy Dreamer def. Christian & Jack Swagger in Triple Threat Hardcore Rules Match (New ECW Champion)
- Chris Jericho def. Rey Mysterio in No Holds Barred Match (New Intercontinental Champion)
- John Cena def. Big Show (Submission Match)
- CM Punk def. Umaga (Samoan Strap Match)
- Santina Marella def. Vickie Guerrero in Hog Pen Match (New Miss WrestleMania)
- United States Champion Kofi Kingston wins Fatal Four Way Match
