Punk busts out "straight edge means I'm better than you" this week.

quote:

Dark Match:
Jimmy Wang Yang pinned Alex Riley who cut an extremely scripted/phony promo before hand and was wearing a High School letter jacket with no sleeves.

Superstars:
1) Shelton Benjamin pinned Tyler Reks with a kick to the head that missed by literally a foot, followed by the paydirt.

2) R-Truth pinned Charlie Hass who was wearing new gear - long black tights with a steer skull on the side and kickpads (?).

Smackdown:
1) Mysterio and Cryme Tyme vs. Jericho, Show, and Ziggler. Dolph gets the pin on Rey following a hot sequence including a knockout punch from the Big Show on Rey.

Sit down interview with Matt Hardy with Josh Matthews. He apologizes for everything and Jeff accepted. A lot shorter then I expected.

Kane comes out to cut a promo, Khali interrupts, swats away the chair and lays the boots to Kane before he escapes up the aisle way.

2) Knox vs. Finlay. Knox had one of those inset promos during his entrance. Couldn't hear it, but Knox was wearing glasses and had his beard braided up for the promo. Finlay wins by DQ when Knox doesn't break a 5. Afterward Knox destroys Finlay with the ring steps.

Hardy promo. They bring out a bunch of ladders, tables and chairs around ringside and the ramp. Hardy says he was advised by doctors to retire. Though he never listened before and he isn't starting now. Punk interrupts and says Summerslam will be Hardy's last match. Punk goes to pull Hardy off of the ladder, but Jeff lands on his feet and gives Punk the twist of fate. As he was giving him the twist of fate, the ladder accidentally tipped over towards both men and hit Hardy's unprotected head while he was in mid-air.

3) Maria and Melina vs. Layla and Natalya. Melina pins Natalya. I sorta zoned out during this one and I don't think Layla or Maria ever even entered the match. Melina knocked over Michelle McCool who was doing commentary at ringside in the middle of the match.

Mysterio backstage promo.

4) Main event: Hardys/John Morrison vs. CM Punk/Hart Dynasty. During Morrison's entrance, the stagehand knocked over both fans that blow Morrison's hair, which was a funny moment and made Morrison laugh. Hardys come out together with their old music for their entrance. Matt pins CM Punk with a twist of fate. Hot finish. In the middle of the match, about 8-10 venders hit the floor with Jeff Hardy Armbands for $20 a pop, and it completely distracted many kids bugging the parents to buy them (which many did, they're making a killing on what essentially is torn-up panty hose). Punk and the Hart Dynasty colored coordinated and all wore black and pink. Matt had new purple tights. The faces celebrated to close the show.

Dark match:
Hardy pinned CM Punk in a steel cage match with the twist of fate. After the match CM Punk layed still in the middle of the ring for nearly 20 minutes before security started clearing people out and the ring crew was breaking down the ring around him. I think he was ribbing the referee who had to kneel beside him the entire time. After a while the referee pretended to do CPR and Punk no-sold it.

I can't wait guys.

The best part was the 3 guys all holding beers behind me cheering for Punk.

DM Punk posted:

I dont get Mike Knox. He has this program with Rey, and it goes nowhere. Then he disappears for a while, and now he shows up and looks like he is kicking Finlay's rear end each week. Its like creative goes hot and cold with him.

for some reason i really hope they show this

*Drew McIntyre vs. R-Truth never happened as Drew attacked before the bell, got on the mic & left.

Punk/Taker in a SUBMISSIONS MATCH should be excellent as Taker is a MMA nut and Punk has worked a Japanese style before that could work well in this situation.

Carney posted:

I agree. But my one concern is, I can't see Undertaker tapping out to CM Punk. I have no real problem with Taker as champion, but I'm not a fan of this "hot potatoing" of the world title.

El Generico posted:

Punk could always knock him out, which counts. If the only way to win is by submission, does that make all these matches no DQ?

* CM Punk defeated Jeff Hardy in a steel cage, loser leaves WWE match to retain the World Hvt. Championship. Amazing match. Hardy delivered a great speech afterward.

I would assume they are No DQ. I don't see Punk going over Taker without shenanigans.

Shenanigans? In an all submission PPV? In Montreal? NO loving WAY!

Oh well....BUT, after the show was over...Jeff cut a speech in the ring, thanking the fans. Then he went around ringside, slapping hands & whatnot.

When he got to the top of the ramp, CM Punk attacked him from behind, nailing him with the belt. Then he got in the face of a fan who was crying over Jeff's farewell & mocked her by rubbing his eyes like he was crying. He then went & did it to another girl ringside & she flipped him off while she was bawling.

He then went in the ring to cut a promo when the *gong* hit, the lights went dark, & the smoke started to rise. Undertaker walked to the ring, CM Punk started backing off, then attacked Undertaker. Undertaker got the upperhand & laid out Punk, posed with the belt & did his tongue thing, then left. It was a pretty cool segment.
