Edge...in a bit of weird booking, even by WWE standards.

Cena wins the Elimination Chamber. Edge then uses his title shot at the end of the match and takes out Cena in around 2 minutes.

I never liked that douche bag

even back when I used to watch it back in the day

1/8/2006 10:56:07 PM

lol edge and cena were a european level when i stopped watching. and i stopped watching really late. seperating raw and smackdown pretty much was the nail in the coffin for me

1/8/2006 10:56:16 PM

I was just reading about this. I'm going to download it and watch it tomorrow.

1/8/2006 10:59:03 PM

hell yea and i ordered my Rated R Superstar t-shirt yesterday


edge is the man

1/8/2006 11:07:51 PM

who won the bra and panties match

1/8/2006 11:09:23 PM

^ Ashley.

Show recap.

Chavo Guerrero beat Snitsky with a frog splash in the Heat match.

Kurt Angle did a funny promo saying he wanted Iraq to win the War, that his favorite country is France, that he doesn't like black people and would like to put the ankle lock on Jesus Christ. He said he could say all that and the people will still cheer him tonight. And it sounded like they were cheering him.

Ric Flair beat Edge to keep the IC title via DQ. Flair had Lita in the figure four when Edge hit Flair twice with the briefcase for the DQ. Edge hit him a third time with the briefcase and Flair bled heavily. Short match which didn't amount to much. Edge was being really careful out there. They also blew off the feud as Edge said he wasn't interested in wrestling Flair anymore.

Trish Stratus pinned Micki James with the chick kick. They did nothing to advance the angle. Just did a match and a finish. Decent.

Jerry Lawler (who got no pop coming out, which isn't a good sign) vs. Gregory Helms is up now. Helms crotched himself on the top rope and Lawler got the pin with a fist drop. Lawler looked heavy. Typical Lawler good psychology. Nobody was into the feud. Too short a build to make this sort of a thing work. Crowd cheered Lawler for winning but didn't react to the match.

We did have some Micki James-Stratus follow-up. James was coming on to her in the interview area.

Mrs. Benjamin is in catering eating away. And Viscera has already shown up. Wow, I expected them to wait at least three weeks for this. She blew him off. I have a feeling we're getting Shelton vs. Viscera. Viscera is now eating at catering.

HHH vs. Big Show is up next. Long, plodding match without much heat. After a ref bump, Show tried a left handled choke slam and HHH hit Show with the sledge hammer and used a half-ass pedigree for the pin. They told a story working on Show's right hand, taking off the cast and hitting it with a chair. Show blew up bad halfway into the match and was having trouble just moving from that point on. Fans ended up turning on Show and cheering HHH by the end, which wasn't the idea.

With just a bra & panties match and possibly Benjamin vs. Viscera, the elimination chamber is going to have to take a career performannce by some guys to turn this around.

Carlito and Masters said they are going to work together to win the chamber.

Guess what, we've got Benjamin vs. Viscera coming. This match died worse than any PPV match since Stevie Richards and Tyson Tomko in 2004. Mama hit Viscera with her purse twice and Benjamin won with a spin kick. Benjamin worked as the heel but I don't think anyone even caught that. Fans cheered him very lightly when he won, probably more just happy this was over. I don't care if Edge has a torn pec, think about the time management of giving these guys more time than Flair and Edge?

At this point, we need are pretty close to needing Angle-Michaels at Wrestlemania to even get a thumbs in the middle. This show is dying.


This didn't help. Ashley won. Candice vs. Maria saw Maria win. Then Torrie Wilson came out and Maria stripped her. Then Victoria came out and stripped Maria. Maria got booed for wearing conservative panties. Mae Young & Moolah came out. It got weird to say the least. Mae stripped. Seriously, they were turning men Gay by the hundreds. Moolah held Victoria so Mae tried to take Victoria's top off. Somehow this got screwed up as Victoria had two bras on so one was supposed to come off, but they got caught. What a mess. Anyway, finally Moolah and Mae just left. Ashley came in, took off Victoria's shorts in seconds and won. Ashley then stripped.

I hope Shawn went to church this morning because he's going to need divine intervention to make this a good show. They booed Cena out of the place. He sure came out with an "I'm losing the title face." We'll see if he's a great actor or not in a half hour but he wasn't playing to the crowd at all. Angle even played face the most of anyone so far. Obviously the story of the match is Shawn, starting first and probably going until the end. Angle was by far the crowd favorite and even worked as a face. Crowd hates Cena as he's working heel style. Michaels superkicked and pinned Angle. People were very unhappy about that and now they're dead. Carlito & Masters both pinned Kane after Masters press slammed him. Carlito used his neckbreaker to pin Michaels. Dear God Vince didn't even screw him, he lost on his own. Who is booking this? Cena is left with Carlito and Masters and being booed out of the building. Carlito told Masters to put Cena in the Masterlock. Carlito then gave Masters a low blow and pinned him. Cena schoolboyed Carlito. Cena got a big pop in winning, but Vince came out and mentioned Cena winning and fans booed.

Cena vs. Edge for the WWE title is next. Money in the bank time. 2 spears and a title change in 1:46. Mixed reaction.

1/8/2006 11:11:05 PM

I'd hoped that they'd use the money in the bank in this way since Edge got it. Very Hogan at Wrestlemania IX of them

1/8/2006 11:15:14 PM

almost glad i didn't see this. wrestling is struggling bad

1/8/2006 11:23:17 PM

^ try TNA, they have awesome wrestlers (not all, but a majority)

1/8/2006 11:36:50 PM

TNA is shit.

1/8/2006 11:42:14 PM

no fed that has Christian and AJ Styles is shit! Also, the Canadian Destroyer is the greatest finshing move

1/8/2006 11:44:59 PM

Yeah, too bad it looks like it's filmed in a high school gym.

1/8/2006 11:52:07 PM

it looks like the old WCW Saturday Night set

1/8/2006 11:53:55 PM

Is that supposed to somehow make it not look like a high school gym? There are like 500 people in there max.

1/8/2006 11:57:52 PM

no, that was a shitty, shitty "arena"... it just looks like the same place

1/9/2006 12:07:12 AM

The fact that I never liked WCW is about half the problem.

Mixed with the fact that I never liked Jeff Jarrett.

And oh, if I wanted to here about Sting, I'd get in my time machine and go back about 10 years.

1/9/2006 12:13:14 AM

yeah, ive never understood what the big deal about Jeff Jarrett is. He has all the charisma of Lance Storm and talent of Marty Jannety

1/9/2006 12:16:01 AM

Well, he kind of owns half the company or some such, so that's why he's there.

1/9/2006 12:21:51 AM

Jannetty was talented as hell when he wasn't loaded

1/9/2006 12:24:48 AM

it's so funny to me that no matter how hard wwe's been pushing john cena as a face, the fans still boo him. i love it. i guess they finally got the message since he lost the title. now hopefully he'll turn heel (likely) or be pushed back to midcarder status (unlikely). he was a complete joke.

well i didn't see the ppv tonight, but it sounds like from the recap he worked as the heel afterall. good.

[Edited on January 9, 2006 at 12:46 AM. Reason : ]

1/9/2006 12:43:49 AM

it's not b/c he was a face. It's because they are trying to make him Stone Cold 2.0. well, that and the rock 2.0. My friends and I refer to him as "stone cold rocky cena"

1/9/2006 12:46:35 AM

well yea, and u cant push someone that hard that has one of the worst gimmicks ever

1/9/2006 12:49:25 AM

WOW!!!

go to wwe.com and watch Edge's promo after he won the belt. He says he and Lita are going to have hot, torrid sex in the middle of the ring tomorrow on Raw!!

hilarity

1/9/2006 12:59:33 AM

was this the Royal Rumble? Isn't that always in January?

THE BROOD!

1/9/2006 10:37:11 AM

its not real youKnow

1/9/2006 10:39:51 AM

^dyke

1/9/2006 10:41:45 AM

my guess is Cena vs. Edge at Royal Rumble, with Cena recapturing the belt and losing it at Mania to Triple H. They can't turn Cena heel unless they turn Triple H or Edge face which won't happen.

1/9/2006 11:59:19 AM

1/9/2006 12:12:18 PM

wow you guys still watch thist stuff hardcore.... i havent even bothered to watch it since middle school... i assume it hasnt gotten anybetter since the nwo and wcw went at each other? haha

1/9/2006 12:21:53 PM

As stupid as wwe is today, I can't stop watching it. I was hoping to watch NYR before RAW came on but it's still downloading. It's been a slow download all day.

TNA is suppose to go on tour this year. Hopefully, they will get out of Universal Studios into an actual arena.

1/9/2006 5:12:43 PM

reminder: RAW is Raleigh next week!!

1/9/2006 7:21:19 PM

they are doing the WM tour in Fayetteville on Friday and Saturday and then coming to Raleigh on Monday.

1/9/2006 10:29:16 PM

are you serious, are they really doing this shit on raw right now, i just flipped through

1/9/2006 11:01:23 PM

sadly... i went back after they blanked out the camera and surely enough...

Lita nipple shown clear as day... they gettin sued.

1/9/2006 11:12:29 PM

1/9/2006 11:20:27 PM
