No way out? No problem!

Tonight's Pay Per View No Way Out promises to be brutal, bloody and spectacular. Two elimination chamber matches and many championship matches will be viewed by all of us fans sitting at home watching on the edge of our seats. So to quote the best duo WWE has ever seen DX, ARE YOU READY?

CM Punk from ECW will be in the first match tonight at No Way Out. He is facing the new ECW champ Chavo Guerrero for the title back. I have to admit that when Eddie Guerrero and Chavo used to run together, I loved them. However since the death of Eddie Guerrero a few years ago, Chavo has not been on my favorites list at all. He's just not the same. CM Punk seems to be in good form early on in this match, but never underestimate a Guerrero, Chavo gets him out of the ring onto the floor below. Punk makes it back in the ring and this battle continues. A barrage of kicks to Punk gives Chavo a slight advantage. Guerrero gets a leg lock around the middle of Punk trying to squeeze the life out of the past champ. Punk doesn't let that happen and he launches Guerrero into the turnbuckle. Punk gets a cover, but Chavo kicks out. A nice reversal with a hurricarana saves the fate of Chavo as he avoids Punk. Punk gets a second cover, but to no avail. Punk is looking for the GTS, but Chavo gets the ropes. The champ then finds himself on his back on the outside. Punk gets Chavo back into the ring before the count reaches 10 from the ref. These two battle it out on the top ropes, Chavo pushed Punk down and Punk rattles the rope and Chavo finds himself with the rope between his legs. CM Punk tries to counter but Chavo has another idea. Chavo gets the huge frog splash that wins him this match, retaining him the coveted championship.

Mike Adamle is interviewing Rey Mysterio about what happened Friday night on Smackdown. Mysterio and Edge went at it, Rey delivered the 619 to the champ. Rey then went up top and tried to take out the Rated R superstar but Edge moved out of the way just in time and Rey accidentally landed on the general manager Vickie Guerrero who had just accepted a proposal of marriage from Edge. Vickie will not be at No Way out tonight due to her injury. Rey says it was a total accident and that he will not say he's sorry again!

The elimination chamber match for Smackdown will begin next. MVP, Big Daddy V, Undertaker, the Great Khali, Finlay and Batista will face off for the chance to go to Wrestlemania to face the champion for a shot at the title. Undertaker and Batista will start the match off with the other 4 men in the plexiglass pods looking on for their chance to come out and play. The slugfest begins as these two awesome athletes wear each other down bit by bit. Undertaker presses Batista's head against the chain of the chamber. First blood has yet to be drawn, but I'm sure that time is coming. Undertaker is dominating Batista and slowing the animal down quite a bit. The pheonom kicks and stomps his opponent showing the other four competitors what awaits then when their pod opens. Batista fights back finally and gets Undertaker down on the mat. A quick cover, but Undertaker kicks out. Both men boot each other in the face and they both fall to the mat.

Big Daddy V is the next one to enter this match. He goes after the Undertaker but doesn't forget that Batista is over in the other corner either. He is simply manhandling the two superstars before him. It's easy to see that the 500lb man definitely has the advantage in this match up. V stands on the Undertaker with his full weight on the dead man. Undertaker turns a little purple but V moves and goes to work on Batista. Undertaker is knocked out of the elimination chamber by V and goes right out to the floor. Ouch! It appears that Undertaker injured his elbow in the fall from the chamber. V rushes and crushes Batista against a corner of the ring. Batista manages to get a spinebuster on the huge man! The Undertaker delivers a huge DDT to Big Daddy V who is covered and eliminated by Batista. Undertaker manages to get a shoulder up and avoid being eliminated too.

Khali is the next into this match up. Khali dominates both Batista and Undertaker right from the start in this match. Undertaker fights back and gets the choke slam hold on Khali who just shoves Undertaker to the ground. Batista then avoids a count out by Khali. Khali then manages to get the vice grip on the skull of Batista. Batista gets out of it and Undertaker then knocks the wind out of Batista. Undertaker gets a head submission on Khali who immediately taps out and is eliminated. Then there were 4! Undertaker and Batista continue the battle as the next opponent is revealed. Finlay is next in.

Finlay started strong out of the pod, however the Undertaker shows him who's boss immediately. Finlay doesn't stand for that, he gets the Celtic Cross on the Undertaker, after throwing Batista over the ropes to the outside where the steel awaits. Finlay's face meets the steel at the hands of Batista and it's getting brutal folks. A huge boot and clothesline to Batista by the Undertaker, takes Batista to the mat. Finlay tries to capitalize and cover Batista, but Batista kicks out. Finlay then battles Undertaker into the steel chamber. Finlay goes for the cover on the dead man, but Undertaker kicks out. Finlay pushes the Undertaker into the pod busting it wide open. Batista then takes on Finlay and gets a cover, but Finlay gets out of it.

MVP is the last man in and he's holding the sliding door shut as Undertaker goes in after him. MVP is taken out and down in his pod and hasn't even gotten into the ring yet. Batista and Undertaker go at each other again while MVP and Finlay recoop. MVP tries to get a cover on Undertaker and doesn't get it. MVP gets his chain and strangles Finlay with it. MVP then goes back to work on the Undertaker. He goes for another cover, as Undertaker gets up. Undertaker is bleeding from the forehead and these men are getting pelted by the fresh man MVP. MVP pelts Undertaker with fists but Undertaker keeps coming. MVP goes to the top of the pod and is tossed off by Undertaker. Finlay gets the cover and MVP is eliminated! Undertaker is on the top rope and tries to land on Finlay, but Finlay moves and Undertaker lands on his elbow again tonight. Hornswaggle appears from under the ring and slides Finlay's weapon of choice in to him. Undertaker then choke slams Finlay on the outside of the chamber on the steel grating. Finlay is eliminated. Batista is now also bleeding and opened up in this match. It's down to Batista and Undertaker!

Both men have got to be tired as they exchange blows to each other like a couple of boxers in the ring. Batista lands the Batista bomb and goes for the cover. Undertaker kicks out at 2 1/2. It's not over yet! Batista pummels Undertaker with a barrage of fists to the head, and goes for the last ride as Undertaker defends himself. Undertaker goes for the cover and Batista kicks out at 2 1/2. It's crazy! Undertaker then delivers some fists of his own to the skull of Batista. Undertaker is going for the kill as he tries to set up for the tombstone piledriver. However Batista knows better and tosses Undertaker over the rope to the steel of the chamber. The blood flows as these two men battle for a chance at the main event at Wrestlemania. As Batista is ramming Undertaker into the steel over and over, Undertaker counters by going back over the top rope, landing on his feet and putting Batista up into the tombstone. Undertaker wins this chamber match and will be going to Wrestlmania ladies and gentlemen! (And we all know he has never lost at Wrestlemania, so we'll be having a new champ soon on Smackdown! Will it be 16-0?)

Edge is back in his room backstage freaking out because Undertaker just won the chamber match. He tries to get his boys involved by giving them instructions on what to do during his match tonight, however Mr. Theodore Long interrupts the great plan in action. Since Vicki is out tonight he's in charge and the two rated R underlings are banned from ringside during Edge's match tonight against Rey Mysterio. Ha ha ha!

Ric Flair and Mr. Kennedy fight it out. Flair trying to keep his career, Kennedy trying to end it! Just remember Kennedy to be the man, you have to beat the man! Kennedy is a strong opponent that's for sure, however Ric has been doing this longer than Kennedy has been alive! It's experience over youth at this point. Kennedy remembers that Ric's knees is not at 100% and he goes to work on it. Kennedy gets a half Boston crab on Flair trying to get the Nature Boy to tap out. Flair gets to the ropes, saving himself. Kennedy continues to work that hurt knee. He's at least playing it smart tonight. Always know your opponent's weakness and exploit it at all costs. Kennedy gets a figure 4 around the ring post on an agonizing Flair. Kennedy then adds insult to injury mocking Flair. Kennedy tries to get the figure 4 on Flair, but it's not locked in completely yet. Ric is yelling in pain and I'm not sure how much more he's got in him. Flair again gets to the ropes. Kennedy gets a nice drop on Flair and goes for the cover. Flair gets his shoulders up. Flair then gets a cheap shot in on Kennedy's knee. Kennedy pulls Flair's tights almost off and goes for the cover. The ref notices that Kennedy is using the ropes for leverage, and breaks up the cover. Ric Flair gets the figure 4 on Kennedy and Kennedy taps like a little girl! Once again the Nature Boy lives to fight another day!

Mr. McMahon confronts Finlay backstage asking how Finlay is going to like seeing Hornswaggle in the steel cage match tomorrow night on Raw. Finlay is not allowed to be involved in that match or else he will be fired by Mr. McMahon. Poor Hornswaggle!

Edge and Rey Mysterio battle it out for the World Heavyweight Championship next. Mysterio comes out first. Edge then comes out totally confident like usual. Rey is fighting with one good arm tonight after admitting that he's fighting with a torn bicep. He must rely on his quickness and his feet to do the work for him. An early boot to the face connects with Mysterio and Edge capitalizes momentarily. Mysterio gets out of the ring and takes a little walk. Edge baseball slides out of the ring and battles Mysterio on the outside. Running Mysterio right into the steel steps injured arm first. Edge is working on that injured arm of Mysterio knowing that is his chance to win it all and retain his title. Edge goes for a full run at Mysterio who is hanging upside down in the corner, but Mysterio pulls himself upright and Edge slides right into the ring post nuts first. Two covers on Edge almost win it for Mysterio, but Edge is kicking out and using the ropes to save himself. Mysterio lands the 619 on Edge but is having a hard time getting up to get the cover. Edge then catches Mysterio in midair with a spear and gets the cover. Edge wins it quick and easy tonight. Mysterio must really be hurt to have this match over so quickly. I hope he will be ok!

Out of no where comes the Big Show! He looks really good! He's lost weight and looks very healthy! Holy crap has he lost weight! WOW! "Guess who's back?" He has really missed wrestling since he left. "I will be a champion again!" He doesn't care if it's Raw, Smackdown or ECW. He's going to make good on his word. So which brand is he going to be on this time, we shall have to wait and see. He's down to 180 pounds! He was over 300 before. He then grabs the injured Rey Mysterio who is being walked out of the arena, and makes a scene out of Mysterio. Rey Mysterio's friend who is sitting ringside goes in to help him. The welterweight champion of boxing bloodies Big Show's nose then makes a fast retreat out of the arena. Big Show goes after him but is stopped by Shane McMahon. (We will get sued are the words I saw Shane mouth) Big Show leaves the arena and is bloody and not too pretty right now. Mayweather hit Show three times to bloody that nose. Boxers don't play and a boxer could get in the ring and mess up a wrestler any day of the week, no doubt in my mind! I still love my wrestler's though!

John Cena and Randy Orton are bitter rivals who are competing for the championship tonight. 4 months ago Randy Orton sidelined Cena with a torn pectoral muscle injury that doctors said would take 8-12 months to recover from. Well Cena made him comeback a few weeks ago at the Royal Rumble coming in at #30. He wasn't about to miss his shot to go to Wrestlemania and tonight he's gunning to get his championship back, since he never technically lost it to Randy Orton in the first place. Orton was rewarded the title after beating Triple H for the title last year after Cena was injured. Cena is here to regain what is rightfully his and Orton is here to keep what he thinks he deserves. The lockup takes place and Cena gets an inside cradle on Orton right off the back. Orton kicks out of the first and a second cover by Cena. Chants of "Let's go Orton, Let's go Cena" fill the arena. Orton gets some good hits on Cena taking him from one corner to the other. A huge counter by Cena gets another cover on Orton, Orton kicks out. A fourth quick cover yet Orton remembers to kick out yet again. Orton chops his way to getting Cena on the mat. As he hams it up for the crowd, Orton almost loses his title as Cena rolls him up for yet another cover. Orton gets Cena in the ropes and battles him there for a minute. Orton tries to grab Cena's head, and Cena bounces Orton's face off the top rope. Then Cena flies high and gets another cover that Orton swiftly kicks out of. Orton then resorts to choking Cena to weaken him down so he's not so aggressive. Cena sets up for an FU, but Orton counters and knocks Cena back to the mat again. Orton then begins the stomp fest on Cena's legs and body. Orton does deliberately stomp on the surgically repaired pectoral muscle of Cena.

Orton goes for a knee to the shoulder of Cena, but he misses. Cena battles back but Orton gets Cena in a choke hold submission move. Cena battles out of it eventually and gets a running start on the champ. A much deserved 5 knuckle shuffle finds Orton unprepared. Orton tries to walk out of the arena, but Cena stops him in his tracks. Both men jump back in the ring on 9 as the ref counts down for the count out. A barrage of fists fly as these two men go at it again. Randy gets a nice counter on Cena then goes for the cover. Cena gets his shoulder up on 2. Cena flies high and tries to land on the champ but lands on his butt instead. Orton is now stalking Cena. Orton sets up for an RKO, but Cena counters and gets the STFU on Orton. Will this win it for Cena? Orton tries desperately to get to the ropes. Orton makes it to the ropes and the hold is broken. Orton leaves the ring again and takes a breather. He's on the outside screaming about his knee. Orton then gets the RKO on Cena on the outside as he screams about his knee. He then climbs back into the ring and the count begins. Cena is not moving. He climbs back in at 9 again. Orton then slaps the ref to get himself disqualified so he keeps his title. Cena tries to get the ref to reverse the call for the bell, but it's no use. The match is over. Cena wins by DQ. Cena gets the STFU on Orton who is madly tapping out but there is no ref to count it. Cena is pissed and has every right to be, he was cheated out of a real chance at the title here tonight. Cena's Royal Rumble win was in vain because he will not be going to Wrestlemania. Orton is so proud of himself, it really makes me sick! Yuck!

The final match tonight will be the Raw elimination chamber match tonight. Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Jeff Hardy, Chris Jericho, Umaga and JBL will battle it out for a shot at Randy Orton at Wrestlemania. Chris Jericho and Shawn Michaels will kick off this chamber match. Just like the the Smackdown chamber match the other four opponents are locked in pods looking on as they await their chance to come out and make their mark on this match up. Michaels and Jericho exchange chops and then the counters and reversals on the mat begins. Finally both men are on their feet and Jericho gets the pin on Michaels who then bridges up to get out of it. A backbreaker by Jericho pauses Shawn for just a moment. The men go back to exchanging blows again. Michaels powers back and gets Jericho on the mat, Michaels flies high but is deflected by the knees of Jericho. Jericho goes for the walls of Jericho on Michaels, but is kicked off my Michaels who then gets a near fall on Jericho.

Umaga is the next man in and he immediately begins knocking down the two mean in the ring. Jericho gets tossed outside to the steel grating. The two men try to take down Umaga, but a double clothesline lands them both on their backs. Umaga then gets a double Samoan drop on both Jericho and Michaels! (Yes, he had them both on his shoulders!) Michaels gets kicked to the outside on the steel grating next. Umaga then headbutts Jericho in the chest. Umaga goes back and forth from Michaels to Jericho. Umaga tries to splash Jericho but Jericho moves only leaving Umaga open for a high flying elbow from Michaels. Jericho gets the walls of Jericho on Umaga.

Michaels is already busted open but Umaga doesn't stop. JBL and Jericho are still battling it out in the ring. JBL has got Jericho on the outside on the steel now too. Umaga takes Michaels inside the ring. He then kicks Michaels right over the top rope. Damn.

Triple H is in next. He immediately goes for Umaga, but then takes down JBL too. Triple H is cleaning house. JBL gets headbutted with Umaga by Triple H at one point. Umaga gets tossed into a pod by Triple H, then JBL gets a clothes line from Hell on Triple H while he tries to set up Jericho for the pedigree. JBL is eliminated by Jericho. JBL then takes steel chairs to everyone in the ring including Umaga. It's all legal. Everyone in the ring is down and not moving very well right now. Jeff Hardy should have his work cut out for him.

The rainbow haired warrior is the last man in tonight as he goes to work on his opponents. Jericho sets up as a step as Hardy goes up for Umaga. A huge boot to the face by Umaga knocks Hardy down. Umaga manhandles the Game. Michaels tries to power back against Umaga, but gets tossed to the steel grating on the outside of the ring again for his effort. Jericho gets his head put through a pod by Umaga's butt. Sweet Chin music finds Umaga, a jawbreaker from Jericho, a pedigree from Triple H and a Swanton bomb from Hardy takes out Umaga! Damn! Sweet chin music finds Jericho and Hardy gets him eliminated. A twist of fate finds Shawn Michaels, but Triple H tosses Jeff out. Triple H then pedigrees Michaels for the elimination then eyes Hardy. It's down to 2! Triple H and Hardy battle on the steel grating. Hardy gets a DDT on Triple H on the steel. Hardy is beating Triple H like a government mule. Triple H is busted open. Pure aggression from Hardy just might win him his shot at the gold. Triple H tries to set Hardy up for the Pedigree but Hardy counters and tosses Triple H back into the ring. Triple H finally lands the pedigree, but Hardy kicks out! Triple H is in shock! Triple H grabs a steel chair. He sets Hardy up for another Pedigree, but Hardy gets a low blow on Triple H, then the twist of fate of countered by Triple H and lands Hardy on the steel chair.

Let's get ready to Rumble!!!

Tonight's Rumble starts off tonight with Ric Flair going against MVP from Smackdown. Will this be the career ending match that everyone has been talking about for weeks now? What better place to have to retire than Madison Square Garden! Ric makes a nice statement about his memories in Madison Square Garden. His first match at the Garden was in March of 1976! (He's been wrestling longer than I've been alive!) Amazing. MVP interrupts Ric's speech and comes out attitude and all. They lock up and MVP shoulders Ric to the floor with a flourish. A second lockup engages and the ref has to break it up. Ric gets the left arm of MVP behind him and starts to inflict the pain. Chops from Flair keep MVP on his toes. A huge boot to the head by MVP gets him the upper hand in this match. Flair manages to kick out of a cross body count. Ric already looks tired. The crowd is chanting and trying to rally Flair back into this match up. A high elbow buys Flair some time and he tries to get the figure four leg lock, but MVP avoids it. Flair tries again, but MVP rolls him up a second time. Back on their feet these men continue this explosive match up. Another huge boot right to the face of Flair almost wins the match for MVP but Flair gets his boot to the rope. The three count was reversed by the ref. Now it's a war of near falls as these two men try to get the count on the other man. A superplex by MVP lands Flair on his back again, but the Nature Boy keeps kicking out and fighting back. Flair gets a quick roll up on MVP, then a backslide, but to no avail MVP gets out of both attempts at a three count! A barrage of chops hit MVP as Flair fires up. MVP goes for the play maker, but Flair gets the figure four leg lock and MVP taps out like a chick! Flair wins it and lives to fight another day!! Congratulations Nature Boy!!! A standing ovation from the fans gives Flair some much needed inspiration!

Mr. McMahon is talking backstage to Hornswaggle. Mr. McMahon is trying to motivate and fire up Hornswaggle about his participation in the Rumble. "I expect you to win, after all you are my son!" Vince says. Mr. McMahon tries to tell Hornswaggle not to trust anyone, not even Finlay! It's every man for himself tonight and the lessons in tough love will continue!

Chris Jericho makes his way to the ring for his battle tonight against JBL. It's all personal and this is going to be a huge match tonight! JBL comes out and ready to bring the fight to Jericho. JBL uses the ropes for security as Jericho goes after him right off the back. JBL fights back momentarily but Jericho fights back just as hard. You just can't bring someone's kids into the picture and not expect some anger issues. Jericho locks the Walls of Jericho in early but JBL gets to the ropes and the ref has to break the hold. Jericho gets JBL out of the ring and is throwing him around on the outside. JBL meets the steel steps shoulder first, ouch! Jericho takes it back to the ring to stop the three count.

That small reprieve doesn't last long as JBL gets to his feet and keeps on fighting. Jericho gets thrown into the steel ring post and his head is busted open. JBL keeps going and attacks like a shark on the bleeding Jericho. Boots to the face keep Jericho off his feet and not able to get the upper hand on JBL. Jericho fights back and takes JBL down. Jericho fights JBL right out of the ring again and as JBL starts to take the announcer's table apart, Jericho gets a huge chair shot to JBL's head. Jericho doesn't let up, despite the fact that the match is over due to disqualification. Jericho gets the TV cable and gets it wrapped around JBL's neck. Turn about is fair play at this point. Jericho tightens the cable and JBL starts to turn colors unnatural to humans. Has Jericho seen justice, or is this just the beginning of a bitter rivalry?

Santino Marella and Ashley are backstage having words about whether or not Maria wants anything to do with Ashley. Santino insults Ashley and slams the door in her face as he goes back into Maria's dressing room. Rudeness never gets you anywhere, and I'm sure Ashley won't stand for it either!

Edge makes his way to the ring for his match against Rey Mysterio for the World  Championship. Vicki Guererro the GM of Smackdown comes to ringside as well as Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins Edge's goons to support the champ tonight. Rey makes his way to the ring wearing a Gladiator mask over his Luchador mask. I'm sure that's to make a statement, Mysterio has overcome great odds before to be victorious and I'm sure he'll do it again tonight! The odds are against Mysterio tonight as there could potentially be two other men involved in this match up. Edge always has back up, that's because he can't win it on his own anymore he has to have help. So sad, he used to be such an awesome wrestler too. I'm rooting for Mysterio for more than one reason tonight! Edge gets Mysterio out of the ring and Hawkins and Ryder try to hurt Mysterio. The ref ejects them from the arena, leaving Edge on his own. Mysterio flies high and takes Edge to his back outside the ring. Edge kicks out of a quick pin by Mysterio.

Mysterio gets a roll through and boots Edge in the face for yet another attempt at a three count. No win yet, Edge powers back out of it.

No three count. Mysterio gets the hurricarana and gets Edge outside the ring. Edge is down and the count begins. Mysterio puts Edge back into the ring and Edge gets his shoulder's up yet again. Edge lines up for the spear and gets another hurricarana for his efforts. Mysterio almost wins this match but it's interrupted by Vicki Guererro. I'm so pissed. Mysterio 619's both Edge and Vickie, but yet loses this match anyway. Edge gets a huge spear on Mysterio from midair as Mysterio goes up top trying to win this match up. Once again the rated R superstar cheats his way out of another match up. Still champ he helps Vicki back into her wheelchair. How disappointing. I really dislike Edge at this point, he has not redeemed himself in my eyes at all! I'm sure Mysterio will have his time soon!

Mr. Kennedy is backstage to congratulate Flair on his win tonight. Mr. Kennedy is so convinced that he will win the Rumble tonight that he begins to challenge Flair to another match up, but then is interrupted by Shawn Michaels. Shawn makes a comment about Kennedy being a "loud mouth, platinum haired, catch phrase having young kid" (sounds a lot like Flair doesn't it?) Triple H and Batista join these two backstage for more funny stuff and Shawn promotes his new T-shirt! It's cute and a nice break from all the drama of matches.

Maria comes out for the first edition of the Kiss cam in HD. This is hilarious! Ashley makes her way to the ring. Playboy is interested in Maria being the next centerfold. Santino comes out and ruins the conversation. "The answer is NO!" says Marella. No one wants to see Maria with no clothes on he thinks. How rude. Someone needs to shut him up, he begins insulting NY's sports teams. (Bad idea!). Ashley stands up to him and stops him from leaving the ring with Maria. "This decision is for Maria to make, do you want to do Playboy?" Maria asks the crowd if they want to see her in playboy, and the crowd goes wild. The big fat white guy is unveiled by Santino since everyone likes to see boobies, and Ashley beats him out of the ring with rubber chickens. How silly! Looks like Maria will be posing for Playboy in the future, I can't wait.

Jeff Hardy makes way to the ring for his match up with Randy Orton tonight for the WWE championship! When Jeff wins he'll be the in the elite club of superstars who have held both the Intercontinental and WWE championships at the same time! Orton comes out cautiously eyeing Hardy intensely. This match gets underway and the lock up takes place. These men roll around the ring ropes never once breaking the hold. Finally the ref breaks the lock up and Jeff gets started on his assault. The two roll around on the floor for a moment. Orton gets his legs wrapped around Jeff's head and neck and turns it into a head scissor. Hardy gets and inverted atomic drop and a baseball slide to get a two count on the champ. Orton battles back though with everything to lose in the match up if he's careless. A huge clothesline takes Orton to the outside and Jeff baseball slides right into Orton. Snapping Orton's neck back into the retaining wall.

A huge powerslam takes Jeff back to the mat and gets another upper hand for Orton. Jeff takes Orton to the mat neither man getting up very quickly! Orton is to his feet first. Jeff powers back and takes Orton down quickly three times. A whisper in the wind finds Orton unaware but Orton kicks out of it barely. Both feet to the sternum of Orton in the corner and Jeff goes up top for the swanton bomb, but Orton rolls out of the ring. Jeff takes him out anyway and they are on the outside yet again. Jeff goes up top and a moonsault lands right on top of Orton. Jeff is getting to his feet first. Hardy rallies the crowd in his name and sizes up Orton. He attempts a twist of fate on Randy, who faster than I could even see turns it around into an RKO and wins this match retaining his championships. I'm in total shock! I totally thought Jeff had this one hands down! I'm so upset. Jeff was robbed!

Shawn Michaels super kicks Shelton Benjamin right out of the ring, damn! #18 is Jimmy Snuka (holy crap!!!!) I can't believe Snuka is in the Rumble, that's awesome! #19 is Rowdy Roddy Piper! (Ok I'm on my feet now!!!! AWESOME!) Piper and Snuka face off as the other men look on in awe, the rumble stops! Wow. #20 is Kane. Piper and Snuka are eliminated by Kane. Undertaker measures up Kane but goes for Shawn Michaels instead. #21 is Carlito. Carlito spits right in the face of Cody Rhodes. #22 is Mick Foley. #23 is Mr. Kennedy. Kennedy goes right to work on Rhodes. #24 is Big Daddy V from ECW. Shawn Michaels eliminates Undertaker and Kennedy eliminates Michaels. Snitsky was eliminated by Undertaker before he was eliminated. #25 is Mark Henry. There are some huge people in this match. The Miz is eliminated by Hornswaggle, who goes right back under the ring. #26 is Chavo Guererro. CM Punk goes right after Chavo after losing his championship to him on Tuesday night on ECW. Kane eliminated John Morrison. Mark Henry grabs Hornswaggle but Finlay comes to Hornswaggle's rescue, but he's not actually "in" the match yet. Finlay and Hornswaggle go backstage, but Hornswaggle never went over the top rope, don't forget that! Finlay was disqualified for not waiting until his turn. #28 is Elijah Burke. Batista is on the outside, was he eliminated? Chavo eliminates CM Punk. Batista went under the bottom rope after a Samoan spike from Umaga. #29 is my man Triple H! Rhodes is eliminated by Triple H. Big Daddy V eliminated by Triple H. Mick Foley and Elijah Burke are eliminated by Triple H. #30 is John Cena!!!!! NO FRIGGIN WAY! THE MAN IS BACK!!! Carlito and Mark Henry eliminated by Cena. Chavo eliminated by John Cena. Kennedy is eliminated by Batista. Umaga is eliminated by Batista. Kane is eliminated by Triple H and Batista. Cena, Triple H, Batista and Hornswaggle are the only men left in it. "Suck it" starts this battle. Batista is eliminated by Triple H. It's down to Cena and Triple H (is everyone forgetting about Hornswaggle?) The battle continues. Fists are exchanged. A huge slam gets Triple H to the mat and Cena stands tall. U can't see me lands it's mark on Triple H. A pedigree is countered as is an FU. It's amazing! A huge DDT by Triple H gets Cena on his back and might give the upper hand to Triple H. Triple H is eliminated by Cena and CENA WINS IT ALL!!!!! The second man in history to win from #30 (Undertaker was the first man to do it!). It's good to have Cena back that's for sure I can't wait until Monday night to see what is going to transpire for Cena now that he is back! Randy Orton better watch out now cause his security has just been breached! What a great way to end the Rumble!

Tune in tomorrow night for Monday Night Raw to get more on John Cena's surprise return to the ring!

Surviving the Night!

I will make a quick disclaimer before my commentary. I actually took to time to watch this pay per view, therefore there may not be the detailed notes that everyone is used to. I tried to capture the highlights of every match to the best of my ability. I was too excited to actually be tuned in to write a lot.

Survivor Series kicks off with the ECW Championship match. This triple threat match will see CM Punk defending his title against both John Morrison and the Miz who are the ECW tag champs. There is plenty of double team action in this match up from Morrison and Miz against the champ. Odds are not in Punk's favor at this point. The the inevitable happens. The Miz clobbers John Morrison and knocks him out of the ring. The fighting between the tag champs begins. CM Punk takes the opportunity to capitalize on this breakdown of the tag champs and he retains his championship yet again!

The divas light up the night next in a 10 diva tag match. It's the team of Beth Phoenix, Layla, Jillian Hall, Victoria and Melina vs. Torrie Wilson, Michelle McCool, Kelly Kelly, Maria and Mickie James. This match is a great exchange from the women and it's a very nice visual. Mickie James picks up a win for her team by planting the kiss of death on Melina followed by a nice kick to the head for the win.

Tag champs Lance Cade and Trevor Murdock see action next against Hardcore Holly and Cody Rhodes. The match is strong and intense. I'm not sure what you call the move that Murdock pulled off in order to secure that the tag champs kept their titles. I have to admit it was very impressive.

The match that has made Survivor Series famous bursts into action. The Elimination match will find two teams head to head. The first team is Mr. Kennedy, Umaga, Finlay, Big Daddy V (accompanied by Matt Striker) and MVP. The second team is Triple H, Kane, Rey Mysterio, Jeff Hardy and Matt Hardy. However Matt Hardy wasn't with his team due to being taken out of action on Friday Night Smackdown by his own tag team partner MVP. Triple H's team is missing one man, and not seeming like they are at 100% mentally either. To simplify this match I'll just let you know how it went: Kane is eliminated by Big Daddy V, Rey Mysterio is eliminated by Umaga. At that point it's Jeff Hardy and Triple H against all five of the other men. Things are not looking good. MVP gets eliminated by Jeff Hardy (payback for MVP hurting his brother!), Mr. Kennedy is eliminated by Triple H, Big Daddy V is eliminated by a team effort between Triple H and Jeff Hardy, Finlay is eliminated by Triple H. Umaga is the only man left representing his team. He is unable to hold up and Triple H and Jeff Hardy win it for their team.

Survivor Series just wouldn't be complete without Mr. McMahon having a heart to heart with his son Hornswaggle prior to Hornswaggle's match with the Punjabi giant the Great Khali. Mr. McMahon says that he made this match because Hornswaggle is a McMahon and McMahon's always stick together.

Then surprisingly enough Shane McMahon comes ringside to introduce not only Mr. McMahon to the ring, but Hornswaggle as well. Khali comes out to the ring and is looking absolutely intimidating. Khali takes one good swipe at Hornswaggle and knocks him down flat. Suddenly Finlay runs out to the ring and saves Hornswaggle from a fate worse than death. He beats off Khali to get the match called due to interference and defends his little leprechaun.

Randy Orton and Shawn Michaels come out to face off in the battle for the championship. The stipulations on this match are Shawn is not allowed to use his Sweet Chin Music and Randy Orton is not allowed to get himself disqualified intentionally. If Shawn executes his devastating kick, he will never again be given a shot at the title as long as Randy Orton holds it. If Orton gets himself DQ'd on purpose he must relinquish the title to Michaels. Can the heartbreak kid capitalize and win this match? Michaels gets a death hold on Orton making Orton's head turn purple (literally!). It's brutal. Michael's uses some fierce holds and submission moves tonight against the champ. This has got to be one of the best match ups I've seen in a long time. They are actually wrestling. Orton at one point has to make his way to the outside just to break Shawn's hold. Orton finally is able to get to his feet and wrestle Michaels for a bit. Michaels gets Orton in a sharpshooter but Orton is able to get to the ropes. Orton then begins applying some holds of his own on the Showstopper. Shawn has Orton set up for Sweet Chin Music, then he hesitates remembering the stipulations. That hesitation is all Orton needs to swoop in and get the win to retain his title. Orton is not satisfied with simply winning however. He gets back in the ring standing Michaels up against the ring pole so he can demean Michaels and gloat on his win. This is not the smartest thing in the world for the champ to do because it results in him getting a nice healthy dose of Sweet Chin Music via the Heartbreak Kid. That's one way to punctuate your point! This grudge is far from over!

The pay-per-view ends with the biggest, most devastating match up of the night. Batista and Undertaker fighting for the World Heavyweight Championship Title in Hell in a cell. As the two men take their places in the ring and Undertaker slams the door, I have to feel sorry for the ref that gets locked in that cage with these two. The match begins and it is not for the weak at heart. A spear saves Batista from a steel chair wielding Undertaker at one point. Undertaker is pulling off some awesome vintage moves that you don't get to see him use that often anymore. Blood is pouring down Batista's face as Undertaker brutalizes the animal. Batista doesn't take this lightly and he bloodies Undertaker after hitting him in the head four (yes 4!) times with the steel ring steps. Weapons are legal and anything goes in these hell in a cell matches. Batista raises the stakes and brings a table into the ring. Undertaker is put through the table yet still manages to kick out of a three count at just the last second. Batista kicks out of a tombstone pile driver. (He what??? I've never seen anyone do that!) Undertaker sets him up for another tombstone and this match is going to be over. Out of nowhere Edge jumps in the ring and begins beating on Undertaker. A concerto on the steel steps take out the Undertaker. Edge manages to roll Batista over the Undertaker and due to the help of Edge, Batista wins this match up. Damn Edge for having to stick his nappy self in a match where he doesn't belong. I hope that Undertaker kicks a mud hole in him on Friday Night Smackdown and walks it dry! He should know better than to mess with the dead man!

This pay per view rocked and I'm glad that I was able to get it. I'm looking forward to Monday Night Raw that for certain. So tune in next post for the results of a promising Monday night and the reveal of who this mystery code person is (Chris Jericho?)

Cyber Sunday!

I was unable to afford to get the pay per view event Cyber Sunday, but my favorite web site WWE.com lists all the outcomes for me quite nicely. Here are the results of the fan based event that Mr. McMahon claims is his brain child:

Batista defeats the Undertaker with Stone Cold Steve Austin counts it down one, two, three.

Shawn Michaels defeats Randy Orton, but not before Orton can get himself disqualified so he retains his title. Unfortunately this grudge is not satisfied and I'm sure will continue on tonight on Raw.

ECW Champ CM Punk defeats The Miz to retain his title. I usually don't watch ECW so I don't have a whole lot of input on this match up.

Triple H our house favorite defeats the Samoan bulldozer Umaga in a street fight.

Smackdown's MVP faced Kane in a battle I'm sure he won't soon forget. Kane of course took the win on that one. MVP entered Cyber Sunday thinking he would have to face his tag team partner Matt Hardy, but that story soon changed and the odds were not in MVP's favor anymore.

Mr. Kennedy defeats Jeff Hardy in what they are calling the battle of the runner ups as both men were on the ticket to face Randy Orton but did not get chosen for Cyber Sunday. That has to be doubly embarrassing to Jeff Hardy, not getting his title shot then getting beat by the big mouth of Raw, I'm sure he'll redeem himself tonight on Raw.

Smackdown's Rey Mysterio defeats Finlay in a stretcher match. I have always loved Rey Mysterio because he is so talented and always entertaining to watch. He fights for what he believes in and never lets down his fans. I'm sure it was an incredible match.

Halloween fun with the Divas leads to a costume contest. Mickie James wins this years festivities. Will the costumes hold up though in the ring? These divas will be competing tonight on Raw in a three brand battle royal. I'm sure at least one of these divas will have a wardrobe malfunction! How fun!

No Mercy is Electrifying!

The beloved chairman of the board kicked off this pay-per-view with a statement about John Cena's injury which took him out of action. Due to this accident, the WWE Championship was vacated and up for grabs. Mr. McMahon guarantees that by the end of the night there will be a new champ and that he will give the people what they want. Well I have to say that Mr. McMahon blew my mind when he gave the title to Randy Orton, literally! Orton comes out looking absolutely victorious and is very proud of his "accomplishment". The Raw general manager William Regal then makes Randy Orton's night even better, by telling Randy that he will defend his title that night and that Orton will get to choose his challenger! Now what kind of crap is that? Talk about favoritism. Sure Randy Orton has been gunning for a title shot for awhile, but he keeps coming up short. I can't believe they just handed the title over to him for lack of a better plan on such short notice. Wow!

 

Just as I was beginning to feel really disappointed, out came the answer to my prayers. Triple H wasn't about to let Mr. Orton off the hook that easy either. He came to the ring to simply offer his congratulations on Randy's recent acquisition. It was all in good sportsmanship, really! Triple H presents Randy Orton with the opportunity to fight him for the title at No Mercy. Of course Randy Orton blatantly refuses. Mr. McMahon has to add his two cents worth in as well and that's when Triple H's attention goes to the chairman of the board.

 

Triple H begins the demeaning process in order to get Vince to buckle and give him a title shot. He calls Mr. McMahon things like, "spineless, gutless, coward" and then follows up with saying that "Mr. McMahon has no balls!" The one thing you never want to say to the face of Vincent Kennedy McMahon is that he has no balls. The chairman starts to get offended, you can see the hatred in his eyes as Triple H continues his barrage of insults. The final straw is when Triple H says that "Under that $5000 suit isn't a puffed up man, but a shriveled up old man!" He then follows that insult up with, "and under that $500 alligator skin belt isn't a huge pair of grapefruits, but two shriveled up pair of raisins!" Now he's gone too far, he insulted the grapefruits! All gloves were off at that point and Mr. McMahon gave the audience and fans at home (and Triple H) what they wanted, the match of Randy Orton vs. Triple H for the WWE Championship would commence immediately! The look on Randy Orton's face was priceless when he realized that Vince wasn't kidding. He looked like a kicked puppy for a split second, it was classic!

 

The match was on and it was a pretty good fight, but Randy obviously wasn't quite prepared to take on the cerebral assassin because he just couldn't get a leg up on Triple H. Thirty minutes after being awarded the WWE Championship, Randy Orton lost it to Triple H. I think that may have been the shortest title reign ever! Triple H is victorious and Randy Orton leaves the ring in utter shock at his shortcomings.

 

There is a "bonus" match made that evening that would give us some tag team action. It was a six man tag team match with Jeff Hardy, Paul London and Brian Kendrick vs. Lance Cade, Trevor Murdock and Mr. Kennedy. This match was high flying and intense but in the end Paul London just couldn't keep from getting pinned and despite the effort of his partner Brian Kendrick, the team of Cade, Murdock and Mr. Kennedy is victorious. I fully expect to see a rematch on Monday Night Raw!

 

Backstage Mr. McMahon finds Triple H and informs him that since he always "gives the people what they want", that Triple H's match with Umaga will still happen and it will be for the WWE Championship. Man Vince really hates Triple H.

 

The ECW championship is being defended next. CM Punk has wrestled his ass of the past few months to get this prestigious honor of being the champ. He had to go through the previous champ John Morrison and there was no love between those two men. Tonight thought CM Punk's challenger is the absolutely huge Big Daddy V. This man is almost 500 pounds and it's not muscle. He's fat, plain and simple and someone that fat should really wear a shirt. The match commences and all I can think is "I hope Punk has a harpoon for the whale!" Well Matt Striker interrupts the match and causes a disqualification for outside interference. CM Punk retains his title but the match isn't over yet. Big Daddy V is pissed and he's taking it out on the man in the ring with him. He obliterates Punk and leaves Punk in a bad way. By the end of the barrage of kicks and knees to the sternum and ribcage, Punk is bleeding from the mouth and having to be half carried out of the ring, but he remains the champ!

 

There are some things that go deeper than wrestling. The competitive nature of both MVP and Matt Hardy is one of these things. The past few weeks have been a show of physical, mental and emotional machismo between these two men. They are the Smackdown tag team champions, but MVP is also the United States Champion. Could Matt Hardy secretly be gunning for that belt? Tonight's challenge will be one that only a real man could stomach. It will be a Chicago style pizza eating contest. Tazz is our announcer for this unique match up and the lovely Maria and Melina are the guest judges keeping track of how much pizza these guys consume. The two challengers come down to the ring. MVP is all mouth and talks a line of smack a mile long. Finally Tazz gets the two men to sit down and start the "competition". Matt Hardy is going to town on that Pizza while MVP looks absolutely ill to have to eat such "garbage". In the end of course Matt Hardy is victorious with two pieces consumed, MVP didn't even get one! Matt Hardy added insult to injury when he threw up on MVP. MVP turned a shade of green that I didn't know a black man could turn and Matt Hardy once again left victorious. (yuck!)

 

Triple H comes out for his second match of the night looking ready for a fight. Can the King of Kings withstand the devastation of the Samoan Bulldozer? Umaga is dominant at the beginning of the match and Triple H's chances don't look good. Triple H pulls out all the stops and lands a huge Pedigree on Umaga to retain his title. Once again Triple H proves why he is the King of Kings, no obstacle is too great!

 

The next match is the first time ever Punjabi Prison match between Batista Smackdown's champion against the Punjabi giant himself The Great Khali. For those of you who have no idea what a Punjabi Prison match is I'll explain it to you. There are two steel re-enforced bamboo cages involved. The inner cage is 16ft high and has four doors in it. The outer cage is 20ft high with no way to escape other than by climbing over it. These two cages are lowered over the ring and the object is to get one of the doors of the inner cage opened so you can get out. You will have 60 seconds to escape once the door is opened, if you do not, the door is locked and cannot be reopened for the remainder of the match. Wow this is definitely going to be an intense match up. They will have to escape both cages to be victorious! So the challenges come to the ring and the match is on. There are no disqualifications, no count-outs, no submissions and no pin-falls. The only way to win is to escape the Punjabi Prison. The Great Khali dominates Batista and begins his climb out because all 4 doors were opened and not escaped through. I totally thought that Khali had this match won. Batista reached down deep and channeled his inner spider climbing abilities and cleared both cages just before Khali did to retain his title. I was pleasantly surprised. I'm sure that this rivalry is far from over, but for the time being Batista is still the Smackdown Champion!

 

Irish Pride vs. Luchador honor. It's Finlay vs. Rey Mysterio. Rey Mysterio just recently made him comeback debut from an injury and he has been red hot ever since. When you see this match up you would think that Mysterio has it in the bag because he is quick, limber and has a barrage of high flying maneuvers that devastate any opponents. Finlay is taking it to Mysterio at the beginning of this match, he's relentless on his punching and kicking. The referee actually has to assert his authority on Finlay and reprimand him for bringing a weapon into the ring. Mysterio avoids being hit with the dreaded shalleighly and capitalizes on this opportunity to fight back. Rey knocks Finlay out of the ring and it appears that the Irishman is hurt. His head bounced off that mat on the floor like a super ball. It was not pretty. Mysterio feels horrible for hurting Finlay. Finlay is loaded up on a stretcher by medical officials and put into a neck brace. Just as they were taking him out of the arena as they got to the exit ramp, Finlay jumped off the stretcher and begins accosting Mysterio yet again. He faked the injury to give himself an advantage. There was no defined winner of this match up, but Mysterio was caught off guard with this last attack and appears to be hurting because of it. I'm sure that this will be rectified on Friday Night Smackdown.

 

Once again we go to our beloved chairman who is antagonizing Triple H yet again. Reassuring Triple H that he is only doing this because it's what the people want, Mr. McMahon let's Triple H know that Randy Orton has cashed in on his automatic rematch clause. Triple H will fight Randy Orton tonight in a last man standing match for the WWE Championship! Vince is obviously not going to stop until Triple H is either dead or no longer champion.

 

The Women's Championship is being defended by the beautiful Candace Michelle against The Glamazon Beth Phoenix. Can the playboy bunny defeat the Glamazon? I have to admit that when Beth Phoenix first came into Raw that I was not all that impressed with her attitude. I do have to have respect for the fact that out of all the other women in the locker room recently she is actually built for wrestling. She's not a skinny little waif and she has the best of both worlds with strength and beauty. I can relate to her fighting style and ability because I am built very similarly to her (she has a bigger chest of course!). It's good to see a real woman in the ring, not just some beautiful super model. Not since the days of Chyna, Trish Stratus and Lita have I seen such a great display of ability and beauty! Beth Phoenix gets the win over Candace Michelle and announces that the Glamazon Era has begun!

 

As Triple H enters the ring for his third match of the night, he is far from 100%. His ribs are injured from the barrage of attacks from his match up with Umaga and he's already fought Randy Orton once tonight. Randy Orton comes to the ring proud of his ability to get his shot at regaining the title. As these two face off you can feel the absolute animosity and hatred between them. They lock up and it's all or nothing. Orton impresses me once again with his vertical leap ability. There are no rules in a last man standing match, the way you win is to incapacitate your opponent to the point that they can not make it to their feet by a ten count. These two are absolutely killing each other in the ring. It's amazing to see the carnage of these two rivals. Orton resorts to using television cables to choke out Triple H at one point, but Triple H makes it to his feet. What will these two men do for gold? Orton goes through an announcer's table and his arm is injured, but he fights on. Tables should never be used as slip-n-slides. Orton takes steel steps to the face and I'm certain that that will be the deciding factor of who wins. He makes it to his feet. The two continue their mutilation in the ring and Orton gets a huge DDT on Triple H. Triple H's face bouncing off a steel chair at that point. As Triple H's face becomes a crimson mask of rage he begins knocking the crap out of Orton again. They end up outside the ring yet again and Orton tries to capitalize by trying to give Triple H the steel steps in his face, this fails. Orton falls and gets a chair shot to his head instead. Triple H finally gets the low blow from Orton and is taken up on the announcer's table that hasn't already been destroyed. Orton delivers a huge RKO on the table to Triple H and gets back into the ring. Triple H tries his damndest but he cannot make it to his feet by the 10 count. Holy crap, Orton wins the championship! He lost it in the first 30 minutes of the show, only to regain it two hours later. I have to say I was impressed by this match up and I hope to see more of it in the future.

 

I'm sure that all the rivalries displayed at No Mercy will be rectified on their various brands this week. Raw, ECW and Smackdown should all be smoking hot coming off of this absolutely electrifying pay per view! Thank you World Wrestling Entertainment for yet another fantastic night of entertainment!
