Tazz: That's happening right now, Cole!

----------

Cole: What a match from these two young competitors, but it looks like Craig Williams will be given the contract to sign with either Smackdown or Raw.

Tazz: The contract signing will take place on Smackdown, Cole. But right now we've got some mad Cruiserweight action with Rey Mysterio defending his title against Nunzio!

Cole: Rey Mysterio has to watch out, because Johnny Stamboli is with Nunzio.

----------

Cole: Nunzio showing respect for our former-Cruiserweight Champion, Rey Mysterio! What a great showing from these two superstars!

Tazz: I've gotta agree, both these men are on a totally different level from anyone else.

Tazz: I'm glad he didn't, because he could've been injured with that reckless Undertaker.

Cole: Ladies and Gentlemen, what a night it's been and what a night we have ahead of us. Coming up next, the Tag Team Titles are on the line in a Three Team Elimination Match!

0nline News Bulletin

World Wrestling Entertainment Signs with Fox Sports

Vince McMahon and World Wrestling Entertainment has just announced that the WWE has signed a contract with Fox Sports. While there was quite a buzz online as to the fact that Raw's contract with Spike TV is ending and that McMahon has been looking for a new sponsor, this appears to be incorrect. The WWE is indeed keeping Raw and Smackdown, and as a matter of fact, adding an additional show.

This is not without retribution, however, as both Heat and Velocity have been canned in order to run this new show, which has been named "Turbo" and will be one hour long and feature the high quality sports entertainment that the WWE is known for.

Total Non-Stop Action to Sign With Spike TV?

There are numerous rumors online and in the press concerning the fact that TNA might sign with Spike TV and create a new flagship show. This would allow TNA to get rid of their weekly PPVs and hold monthly PPVs similar to as the WWE is doing.

Many in the business feel this would give the WWE some major competition, especially with many of their fired workers defecting to TNA.

With Regal still hurt from the vicious attack from Edge last week, will he be able to pick up the W or will Edge walk out victorious?

WWE Raw

December 13, 2004

New York, New York

The opening video is showed, before we see a picture of Eric Bischoff against a black background. The General Manager is back!

----------

Eric Bischoff comes down to the ring to a deafening pop from the crowd. His hair still looks the same from when it was shaved bald. He climbs into the ring and grabs a microphone, before waiting for the crowd to settle down. He begins speaking about how he was watching Raw during his time off and he was surprised at how it's changed so much. He talks about The Tricksters and how Chris Benoit defected over to Evolution.

Bischoff tells the crowd that nothing has changed with him and he's not going to back down from Triple H, Chris Benoit, Batista, or Ric Flair. He then mentions that the Royal Rumble is coming up soon and that the World Heavyweight Champion should be defending his title at the event.

This brings out Evolution who gets into the ring and corners Bischoff. Bischoff cowers, but then gains his composure. Triple H grabs the microphone and tells Bischoff that he isn't going to do crap at the Royal Rumble, except sit there and watch Batista, Chris Benoit, and Ric Flair eliminate people from the ring.

Bischoff laughs and tells Triple H that he is going to be defending his title, against the man that has been the fighting cause against Evolution. Triple H reminds Bischoff that Orton cannot challenge for the title, but Bischoff tells him that it isn't Orton. It's going to be Chris Jericho!!! The fans erupt in cheer as Triple H's mouth drops.

Eric Bischoff leaves the ring, as Triple H is sputtering with Benoit and Batista making an attempt to calm him down.

----------

Backstage, Christian is walking down the hall smiling, when Eric Bischoff walks past him. Christian stops him and asks him what Chris Jericho did to deserve a title shot at the Royal Rumble. Eric Bischoff tells him that Jericho did a lot more than Christian, but he doesn't want to disappoint.

Christian tells him that he at least deserves to be #30 in the Royal Rumble, but Eric Bischoff says there will be plenty of time to discuss that later. Instead, tonight Christian is going to take on Chris Jericho in a singles match!

The crowd pops once again as Bischoff pats Christian on the back before heading down the hall.

----------

This was an awesome opener between Chris Jericho and Christian, with the crowd despising Christian like no tomorrow. Christian played the arrogant, but wuss heel, while Jericho was the no-nonsense face. Both men hit all their signature spots, with Tomko interfering, but being taken out with Jericho's Springboard Dropkick. Good ending with Jericho hitting the Enzugiri and then locking on the Walls of Jericho forcing Christian to tap.

----------

Evolution is shown sitting in their locker room, looking pissed. Triple H complains about how he doesn't want to defend his title, while Benoit and Batista attempt to comfort him. Triple H tells them that all of them should leave before Bischoff has more stupid ideas, but Randy Orton steps into the doorway.

Orton tells them that two of them can leave, but one of them has to stay. He points to Chris Benoit, before changing to Triple H. Orton tells them that Bischoff has sanctioned Triple H versus Randy Orton in a non-title match for later on the evening. He then leaves after wishing Triple H good luck. In the background Evolution is seething.

----------

The Tricksters come out to the ring with the Intercontinental Championship. Both of them get into the ring and do a little dance before Val Venis gets on the microphone and laughs at the crowd. He tells them the jokes on them, because he and Steven Richards aren't going to be wrestling tonight.

He's cut off when circus music hits and a clown comes down to the ring. Val Venis introduces him as Boffo the clown. The clown does a somersault before dancing a little jig. Val Venis is about to talk again when the titantron lights up with Shelton Benjamin's face. Shelton Benjamin tells Venis that the joke's on them. Venis looks confused, but Boffo removes his mask to reveal Rosey!

Rosey knocks Steven Richards over the top rope as Val Venis tries to escape. The Tricksters head up the ramp, but are stopped when Shelton Benjamin's music hits and he comes running down! The crowd pops as the match begins.

----------

Shelton Benjamin and Rosey dominated most of the match, much to the pleasure of the crowd. A nice spot with Rosey hitting the Stinger Splash on both men before Shelton Benjamin hit his version. The quick ending came when Rosey went for his finisher, but Venis reversed it into a Reverse DDT and made the pin with his feet on the ropes.

----------

A video is shown advertising the new show “WWE Turbo”. It features both Smackdown and Raw superstars hitting their signature moves before the commercial ends with a black screen.

----------

Gene Snitsky comes out to the ring to a barrage of boos from the crowd. He grabs a microphone and begins shouting at the fans and insulting them. He calms down and calls out Eric Bischoff. No response. He continues standing there and shouting, but to no avail.

Snitsky starts to leave the ring when the pyros explode and the crowd goes wild as Kane comes walking down to the ring. Snitsky starts wheezing and tells Kane to get into the ring. The Big Red Machine gets in and takes Snitsky down with a Big Boot to the face. Snitsky gets up straight into a Chokeslam from Hell!

Kane proceeds to grab a microphone. He tells Snitsky that next week on Raw, it's going to be Kane versus Gene Snitsky inside of a Steel Cage! The crowd pops as Kane leaves the ring with Snitsky knocked out in the middle of the ring.

----------

Eric Bischoff is backstage in his office with just about the entire Raw locker room standing there. He stands on top of his desk and begins to speak. He tells them that the Royal Rumble is coming up soon and RAW won the coin toss, thus allowing them to have someone enter at #30 again. He announces a series of matches next week on Raw to determine the entrance order.

----------

In the main event, Orton and Triple H battled it out in a good singles match. The actual match went well over a good fifteen minutes with interferences from both Chris Benoit and Batista, who were then taken down by Chris Jericho who ran down to help out Randy Orton The ending came when the referee was knocked out, allowing Jericho to run in and hit an Enzugiri on Triple H, which then was followed up with an RKO from Randy Orton, which then led to the pin.

----------

As Evolution stood in the ring looking furious, Chris Jericho headed up the ramp while signaling that the title was going to be his come the Royal Rumble. The show finished as the last shot showed Triple H shivering in anger.

----------

[Michael]

Wow. I am really, really liking this diary man. Keep it up, and this could seriously end up in the hall of fame one day, if it lasts a few years game time. Good luck and continue.

Maven vs. Val Venis

This was a decent match to open up the show, but it could've been a lot better. Venis carried most of the match, with Maven doing nothing but dropkicks. The ending came when Val Venis moved out of Maven's Dropkick and locked in the Venis Fly Trap, forcing Maven to tap out.

-------

Singles Match

Craig Williams vs. Hardcore Holly

The crowd was rather hot for Craig Williams and were booing the hell out of Hardcore Holly who seemed to be stiffing the crap out of Williams. This was on no means a technical masterpiece, but it looked like Williams was doing his hardest to pull a good match from Holly. Good ending with Holly going for the Alabama Slam, but Williams reversing it into a DDT and then locking in the Sharpshooter and making Hardcore tap within seconds.

-------

[After the match, Craig Williams grabbed a microphone from the side]

Williams: I've made the decision as to whether I'm going to Smackdown or I'm going to Raw. I've decided…Smackdown doesn't deserve to see me and neither does Raw! But seeing as that Raw is LIVE and Smackdown isn't…I've decided to go to Raw!

[He gets a mixed reaction from the crowd]

Williams: But let me tell you something! I don't give a crap about the fans and I'm going to Raw, because that show has what I want the most. The World Heavyweight Championship!

[He drops the microphone and leaves to a barrage of jeers]

-------

Grisham: Craig Williams making his decision and coming to Raw!

DeMott: With an attitude like that, you guys can have him!

Grisham: Another intense addition to our already intense roster.

DeMott: What the hell are you talking about?

Grisham: I'm talking about the events that went down on Raw this last Monday!

DeMott: You mean…

Grisham: Yeah. Eric Bischoff returned and made a huge announcement regarding the World Heavyweight Title!

[We see footage of Eric Bischoff declaring Jericho vs. Triple H at the Royal Rumble]

Grisham: What a match that's going to be!

DeMott: Well, we're going to have to wait, because that's a while away. But I'll tell you what's not so far away.

Grisham: What?

DeMott: Akio taking on Jesus Aguilera!

-------

Singles Match

Akio vs. Jesus Aguilera

This wasn't that bad, despite Jesus needing tons of work. Akio was his usual self executing sharp and precise cruiserweight moves mixed with a little technical work. He looks like he should be on Smackdown instead, even though he still lost the match, when he climbed the top rope, but Jesus hit him with a Big Boot on the top rope and picked up the win.

-------

DeMott: Jesus Aguilera with an impressive Big Boot to clinch the victory!

Grisham: Smackdown fails to impress me, Bill.

DeMott: Yeah? We'll see if Raw can do better next week…Todd.

Grisham: Ladies and Gentlemen, don't forget to join us next week on TuRBO as we get closer and closer to the Royal Rumble!

Too bad this is on TEW, or else you could continue the diary with the data you've used (like a continuation of this) but with a differnet fed. That would be cool to do

[pr0c32]

Smackdown

Oshkosh, Wisconsin

December 16, 2004

We open with the basic video package and then Theodore Long comes onto the screen before announcing tonight's focus…a Gauntlet to determine the #1 Contender for Kurt Angle's WWE Title.

--------------

Billy Kidman comes out to a good jeer from the crowd. He grabs a microphone and talks about his win over Chavo Guerrero, despite interference from Paul London. Kidman talks about how he has to face Paul London tonight, but he suggests that London go home instead of risking his career.

He's interrupted when Paul London comes running down into the ring and goes to work, beating the hell out of Kidman.

--------------

The match was quite short seeing as London did most of the dominating, before Kidman rolled out of the ring and headed up the ramp. London tried to give chase, but Kidman took him down with a dropkick before escaping to the back. The referee had no choice but to declare a draw match between the two competitors.

--------------

Theodore Long comes down into the ring and announces the rules for the Gauntlet Match, which is coming up next. He states that two wrestlers will begin and once someone loses, someone else comes in and so on.

He begins to talk when Kurt Angle comes out with the WWE Championship. He gets into the ring and takes a microphone before getting the cheap heat with the “These People Don't Deserve To See This” line. Long tells him that Angle has two choices. He can either let this match continue or he can hand over the title right now and it'll be determine in a Battle Royal!

Angle tells him the Gauntlet sounds just fine, when Charlie Haas' music hits! The former member of Team Angle gets into the ring and signals that he wants the title. This is followed up with the music of Luther Raines' who gets into the ring and stands next to Angle.

Theodore Long heads to the back, but Kurt Angle remains in the ring. He decks Charlie Haas with a hard right hand before leaving to the back.

--------------

Charlie Haas was dominated in this match until he managed to reverse an Irish Whip attempt into a German Suplex (HUGE POP). The match went downhill from there with Haas locking in numerous submissions all building up to the Haas of Pain, which made Luther Raines tap.

--------------

Haas stood in the ring celebrating as the crowd cheered him on. He turned around into a hard Swinging Neckbreaker from Raines who left the ring in a huff.

As Haas laid there stunned, Hardcore Holly's music hit and the veteran comes down to a decent pop, mixed with some boos.

--------------

It was quite evident that Hardcore was stiffing Dupree to a point that the referee had to pause the match and check on Haas. In the end, however, Hardcore Holly went for the Alabama Slam, but Haas slipped off before pinning him with the German Suplex Pin!

--------------

The crowd cheers even louder as Haas lays in the middle of the ring, unable to believe that he's still in the match. Hardcore looks upset, but heads to the back nonetheless.

Haas struggles to his feet when Rene Dupree comes running down to good heat.

--------------

Dupree picks up Haas and hits an immediate Dupree Driver before going for the pin.

--------------

The crowd gives Haas an ovation, but Dupree cuts them off by acting like they're all cheering for him. He does the French Tickler until weird sounds are heard around the arena. Dupree's face lights up in fear as Rey Mysterio runs into the ring, to a huge pop!

--------------

Rey Mysterio starts this match off hot by ducking a punch and hitting a Head-Scissors takedown. The match was rather nice with Dupree making his opponent look credible, but making himself look good also. The end came when Rey Mysterio went for the 619, but Dupree moved and went for the Dupree Driver. Mysterio reversed it before rolling up Dupree from behind for the win!

--------------

The crowd pops as Rey Mysterio advances to the next round, but pop even louder when “Viva La Raza” is heard! Eddie Guerrero drives down to the ring in a nice low-rider before sliding into the ring.

He embraces Rey Mysterio and the two of them hug before circling the ring.

--------------

This was without doubt the match of the night. Both men had excellent respect and chemistry with one another and that helped the match greatly. The crowd was split, popping for both men. There was an awesome spot with Rey Mysterio reversing one of Eddie's suplexes into a rollup. The good ending came when Rey Mysterio missed his 619, allowing Eddie to hit him with the Three Amigos followed up with the Frog Splash!

--------------

After the match, Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio shook hands again as the crowd popped in the middle of the ring.

“Can You Dig It” is heard, but no one came out. The crowd started booing until The Big Show stepped out and into the ring!

--------------

This match was a basic match from The Big Show, but Eddie Guerrero put on another spectacular show sneaking around and attacking Show from behind. However, as Eddie climbed the top rope to go for the Frog Splash, Big Show got up and hit him with a Chokeslam from the top rope for the win!

--------------

As The Big Show was celebrating in the ring, Theodore Long's face lit up the titantron. He shouts at Show telling him that what he did was wrong and his win does not count. The camera then cuts to a beaten Booker T who is all bloodied up on the floor.

The crowd boos as Show laughs at his misdeed. Long tells Show that since the winner has not been determined, next week we're going to have a Triple Threat match between Booker T, The Big Show, and Eddie Guerrero in order to determine the #1 Contender!

Show looks pissed as the show goes off the air.

Series of Matches To Determine the Entrance Order

[pr0c32]

WWE RAW

DECEMBER 20, 2004

[The opening video is shown followed with a quick video promoting the Rumble.]

JR: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Monday Night Raw! What an evening it is going to be as we've got a plethora of matches, including Kane and Gene Snitsky inside of a Steel Cage!

King: I can't wait for that match and this time I hope Kane injures Gene Snitsky! But I can't wait for the other matches we have tonight!

JR: King is correct folks, tonight we're going to see a series of matches which will determine the order of entrance in the Royal Rumble and we all know that the later the number, the better chance one has at winning the match and going onto WrestleMania 21 to face the champion in the main event!

----------------------------------------

NEXT CHAMPION?

[Chris Jericho is standing backstage in the locker room talking with Maven]

Maven: So I hear you're going to face Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship at the Royal Rumble.

Jericho: Maven, I'm not just going to face him. I'm going to kick his *** and walk out the World Heavyweight Champion!

Maven: It doesn't matter, because after I win the Royal Rumble, I'm going to go into WrestleMania and I'm going to go out the World Heavyweight Champion.

Jericho: …

Maven: Now if you'll excuse me I've got a match up next.

----------------------------------------

JR: Maven sounding confident about winning the Royal Rumble!

King: Well he's got to beat Rob Conway if he wants to make advance towards the next round!

JR: Ladies and Gentlemen, don't forget that this is just one match in a series of matches still to come. The winners of these matches will go on and face each other in a Fatal Fourway Match to determine who enters at #30.

----------------------------------------

MAVEN vs. ROB CONWAY

This was a decent match with both men doing their usual stuff. Rob seems to be improving in leaps and bounds and could be a successful singles competitor later on. Maven dropped Rob to the ground before ascending to the top rope and hitting his Missile Dropkick for the win.

----------------------------------------

JR: Maven picking up the win here tonight! This means Maven will be competing next week for a chance to enter the Battle Royal in two weeks!

King: I heard the next qualifier match for next week is between Shelton Benjamin and Steven Richards!

JR: Well if that does happen, it's sure going to be one helluva match!

----------------------------------------

YOU WANT A MATCH? YOU GOT A MATCH!

[Christian is standing in Eric Bischoff's office, when Bischoff walks in]

Christian: What's up with this Eric?

Bischoff: What's wrong?

Christian: What's wrong?! I'm not in a qualifier match! That's what's wrong! I should be #30 by default, but I'm not complaining…I…

Bischoff: You want a chance to be #30?

[Christian nods his head]

Bischoff: You're going to have a match tonight and if you win, next week you're going to have another match, which will be a qualifier match!

[Christian smiles as Bischoff leaves]

----------------------------------------

JR: Eric Bischoff putting conditions to Christian. If he can defeat someone in his match up next, he'll have a chance to be #30 in the Rumble!

King: I wonder who his opponent is, JR! Do you think its Chris Jericho?

JR: I doubt it, because Chris Jericho is in a match tonight! He'll team up with a partner of his choice and take on Triple H and a partner of his choice!

King: Hush! Christian is coming out right now!

----------------------------------------

CHRISTIAN vs. CRAIG WILLIAMS

This was Craig Williams RAW debut match and he did quite well. These two had excellent chemistry in the ring and the crowd was booing both of them. The match was technically sound and even included a nice spot with a series of fluid reversals involving the Unprettier and the Sharpshooter. In the end, however, it was Christian who nailed Williams with a lowblow and used the ropes to get the win.

----------------------------------------

JR: That damn Christian using the ropes to get the win!

King: Well, I guess he's going on to the next round!

JR: I damn well know it and I damn well can't stand it! Craig Williams would've stood a chance if it hadn't been for that lowblow!

King: You can't be too upset, JR! We've got a Four Way Dance match for the Women's Championship up next!

----------------------------------------

I WILL DESTROY KANE!

[Gene Snitsky is standing backstage with Todd Grisham]

Grisham: Gene Snitsky, tonight you are going one on one with Kane…inside of a fifteen foot steel cage. What are your thoughts on this match?

Snitsky: Kane made a HUGE mistake attacking me last week and he made an even bigger mistake making a match for tonight, because I am going to make sure he can never wrestle again!

[He leaves in a huff as Grisham looks startled]

----------------------------------------

JR: That monster Gene Snitsky looks rather confident about his match with Kane!

King: I wouldn't want to step into the ring with either one of these men, let alone inside of a steel cage!

JR: Neither would I. Ladies and Gentlemen, up next the Women's Championship will be on the line, but still to come we have the second qualifier match as well as Chris Jericho and a partner of his choice taking on Triple H and a partner of his choice.

----------------------------------------

WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

TRISH STRATUS© vs. LITA vs. MOLLY HOLLY vs. CHRISTY HEMME

This was the basic women's match, but a little worse because of Hemme. The crowd began a BORING chant until Lita started hitting some of her top rope moves including a nice Hurricanrana onto Hemme. Predictable ending with Trish Stratus hitting the Chick Kick on a stunned Hemme for the win.

----------------------------------------

JR: Trish Stratus retains!

King: I knew she could it, JR! I just knew she could do it!

JR: Ladies and Gentlemen, I've just been informed that the next qualifier match will be between two of Raw's finest superstars…Randy Orton and Tajiri!

King: What?! I thought Orton couldn't go for the title!

----------------------------------------

LOOKS LIKE I FOUND A LOOPHOLE

[Randy Orton is smiling and walking down the corridor on his way to the ring, when he bumps into Evolution]

HHH: Where do you think you're going, Randy?

Orton: Oh…I was just strolling down to the ring where I'm going to win my match up next against Tajiri…then win the Royal Rumble and then win the World Heavyweight Championship from whoever has the title!

HHH: You're not allowed to go for the title as long as I'm champion.

Orton: Oh I realize that, but after the Royal Rumble, I think Chris Jericho is going to be wearing that title around his waist and guess who he promised the first title shot to. Me.

[He heads off as Evolution looks furious]

----------------------------------------

JR: Randy Orton is correct, King! If Chris Jericho defeats Triple H at the Royal Rumble, Randy Orton can still become the World Heavyweight Champion!

King: [whines]

----------------------------------------

RANDY ORTON vs. TAJIRI

A decent match, but no one expected Tajiri to win this. He got in a few good kicks, but Orton ducked a Poison Mist and hit the quick RKO for the win. Afterwards the two of them shook hands to the approval of the crowd.

----------------------------------------

JR: Folks! Orton is another step closer to the World Heavyweight Championship!

King: He's still going to lose in two weeks, JR! He won't even make it to the Rumble!

----------------------------------------

SO YOU'LL BRING HIM THEN?

[Chris Jericho is standing backstage talking on his cell phone]

Jericho: Yeah…I heard Triple H is getting Chris Benoit as his surprise partner. So just make sure to bring him here, because I'm sure he'll want an explanation for Chris Benoit joining Evolution.

[He hangs up and smiles]

----------------------------------------

King: I wonder who he was talking to, JR?

JR: Well whoever it is better come here soon, because that match is right after this next one! Kane and Gene Snitsky inside of a fifteen foot Steel Cage!

King: I can hear the carnage!

----------------------------------------

STEEL CAGE MATCH

KANE vs. GENE SNITSKY

This was total domination. Kane pulled out all the stops and beat the hell out of Gene. He slammed his head into all four corners of the cage, busting Gene open before choking him against the ropes. In the middle, Snitsky managed to elbow Kane in the stomach and get in a little offense before attempting to climb out of the cage. Kane climbed onto the bottom rope, gripped his hand around Snitsky's throat and delivered a ring-shaking Chokeslam from Hell! Kane made the pin and left to a HUGE pop.

----------------------------------------

JR: Kane's done it! Kane's defeated Gene Snitsky!

King: I'm glad now I just hope Gene Snitsky leaves and never comes back!

JR: Well Ladies and Gentlemen we are just moments from our tag team mainevent, but first I'd like to take a moment to let you all know to order the Royal Rumble on PPV, because it's going to be one awesome event!

----------------------------------------

[A video is shown hyping the Chris Jericho/Triple H match at the Royal Rumble.

----------------------------------------

CHRIS JERICHO AND ??? vs. TRIPLE AND CHRIS BENOIT

Eugene was the surprise partner and he had a good moment at the beginning when he asked Benoit what happened. Benoit responded with a punch to the face and the match continued from there. Eugene and Jericho had good fun poking fun at Triple H, but in the end it proved to be fatal as Triple H planted Eugene with the Pedigree, thus allowing his team to win.

----------------------------------------

JR: Ladies and Gentlemen! What a night it has been and we cannot wait until next week! Make sure to tune in this Wednesday, however, to catch WWE TuRBO! Goodnight!

King: I heard they replaced Todd Grisham, which makes the show a hundred times better!

----------------------------------------

Edited December 30, 2004 by pr0c32

[Guest Fappy]

I didn't like it....

How Shelton got practily killed and all. A DDT on Tacks with your head going straight onto them could end your carrer and cause massive injury since there would be tacks sticking out of your head (The head being very close to the brain and all )

no comment?

Well...that's good reasoning and I have nothing to counter it. Touche.

After an absence from Smackdown, The Bashams will take on Hardcore Holly and Scotty 2 Hotty! Will the notorious twins pick up the win or do Holly and Scotty have different ideas?

WWE TuRBO

DECEMBER 22, 2004

[The explosions hit and the purple lasers shoot out from next to the ramp, as the crowd goes wild! The camera cuts to the announcers' table where Bill DeMott and Jonathan Coachman are sitting!]

------------

DeMott: Welcome to TuRBO! I'm joined here by one of the finest announcers in the business today…Jonathan “The Coach” Coachman!

Coach: Bill…I'd just like to say that I am glad to be here, because we all know that this show would never have gotten big if Todd Grisham had still been announcing.

DeMott: So true…so…

Coach: Let me finish. I believe that I can…

[The Basham's music hits and the Brothers come down to the ring]

Coach: The nerve of those Bashams to interrupt me when I'm speaking…

------------

TAG TEAM MATCH

THE BASHAMS vs. HARDCORE HOLLY AND SCOTTY 2 HOTTY

This was a decent match, but the crowd wasn't into it all, until the end when S2H began to make a comeback. He hit a quick Tornado DDT onto Doug Basham. He starts dancing, but Hardcore Holly shouts at him to finish the match, but S2H starts doing The Worm, allowing Doug Basham to roll him up using the ropes for leverage.

------------

Coach: Those Bashams are great wrestlers, Bill. Great wrestlers!

DeMott: I have to agree, Coach. The technique involved in their moves is precise and accurate.

Coach: Hold on a minute, Bill. What's Scotty 2 Hotty doing?

------------

NO MORE OF THIS CRAP!

[scotty 2 Hotty throws down his cap and stomps on it. He looks pissed as he takes a microphone.]

S2H: I'm sick and tired of this crap! I'm sick and tired of the crowd cheering me whenever I start dancing! Sure…it might be entertaining to the fans, but what does it get me? Nothing! Nothing, but a loss!

[The crowd is booing him]

S2H: From now on…no more dancing! No more being a puppet for the crowd. No more Scotty 2 Hotty! From now on it's just going to be doing what's best for me and doing whatever it takes to win!

[He drops the mic and heads to the back as the crowd boos]

------------

Coach: I'm glad to see Scotty 2 Hotty saw the light! He was going nowhere when he was dancing for the crowd!

DeMott: I wonder what's going to happen now that he's stopped dancing!

Coach: I'm going to see if I can convince him to come over to Raw. You know, the better show.

DeMott: Well…we're going to have to see about that later tonight when Akio takes on Craig Williams!

Coach: We all know Williams is going to win, Bill. Akio might as well just leave the building right now.

------------

[A video is shown of the Gauntlet match on Smackdown last week and how The Big Show arrived to Booker T's music]

------------

DeMott: What a night that was and what a night it's going to be tomorrow! We've got an awesome Triple Threat to determine the #1 Contender to Kurt Angle's WWE Championship!

Coach: I guess that match will be alright, but…

DeMott: But nothing! Booker T, Eddie Guerrero, and The Big Show will all face each other inside that ring for a chance to fight Kurt Angle at the Royal Rumble for the WWE Championship!

Coach: Speaking of the Royal Rumble, Raw saw the first of a series of matches to determine the entrance order! Christian, Maven, and Randy Orton all advanced to the next round of the tournament!

[A video is shown with clips from the matches on Raw, ending with Kane defeating Gene Snitsky inside of the Steel Cage]

DeMott: Enough talking Coach! We've got our last match up next!

------------

SINGLES MATCH

AKIO vs. CRAIG WILLIAMS

This was an awesome match. A technical masterpiece, even. Both men showed some good offense including a good wrestling sequence with tons of close falls. The crowd was popping for Akio, who reversed a Suplex into a Reverse DDT, which got the extreme close fall. In the end, Craig Williams busted out the Canadian Cruncher (Sharpshooter) forcing Akio to tap.

------------

Coach: There! Raw is the better brand!

DeMott: Well…I wouldn't go that far, but Craig Williams is undefeated on TuRBO right now!

Coach: It's time to go now, Bill. Ladies and Gentlemen, thanks for watching and make sure to catch Smackdown this Thursday!

------------

OOC: Cole37 and Fappy, you guys need to stop beefing, cause this is a freaking wrestling diary. There are obviously going to be things that people don't agree on, but that's alright because we're all human. So just relax.

SMACKDOWN

DECEMBER 23, 2004

[The sparks explode from the fist and Smackdown is on the air! The fans begin to cheer and jeer as the camera pans around the arena. We see a Slots Machine in the middle of the ring, before cutting to Michael Cole and Tazz]

-----------

Cole: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Smackdown here in Las Vegas!

Tazz: Oh, it's going to be a fun night tonight! I wonder what that Slot Machine is doing in the middle of the ring.

Cole: Well we're about to find out! Here comes our General Manager, Theodore Long!

-----------

THAT'S NOT COOL!

[Theodore Long steps into the ring to a good pop from the crowd. He grabs a microphone and stands next to the Slot Machine.]

Long: I know all you playas are sitting there wondering what this Slot Machine is doing in the middle of a wrestling ring! Well…we are in Las Vegas and to celebrate the spirit of this fine town…we're going to do things a little different around here, bele dat!

[The crowd pops]

Long: This is how things are gonna go down tonight! This machine has got three slots here. The first one has a list of wrestler's names. The second one has the same list of wrestler's names. Now…the third one has a list of matches, which can and might go down right here in Las Vegas!

[before he can speak again, Carlito Caribbean Cool comes down to the ring with Jesus. He takes a microphone as the crowd boos.]

CCC: Mr.Long…I understand that you're in the middle of a speech and I know it's not cool to interrupt someone. But I'm Carlito Cool so it's all right.

Long: Quit yer blabberin' Playa and tell me what you want.

CCC: I don't want to face Heidenreich tonight for the United States Championship.

[The crowd boos]

Long: You don't want to defend the title tonight? Well…you're not going to have to defend the title tonight…in a normal match that is. Pull the handle.

[Carlito looks skeptical, but pulls down the handle. The slots begin spinning and then stop. Long looks at the middle slot and smiles]

Long: Tonight…it's going to be Carlito Caribbean Cool defending his United States Championship against Heidenreich…in a Bra and Panties Match!

[CCC spits out his apple in shock. He starts arguing with Long.]

Long: I'm gonna give you two options, Playa. You can go back there and get dressed or…you can give me this title right now and then leave Smackdown!

[Carlito looks pissed as he and Jesus begin to leave the ring.]

Long: Hold on a minute! I told Carlito to go to the back. Get back in here, Playa. While we're out here we're gonna decide what kind of match you're going to be in!

[Jesus looks curious, but pulls the lever. It spins and stops again.]

Long: Right now at this moment…it's Jesus versus none other than Rey Mysterio!

[The crowd goes NUTS as Rey Mysterio's music hits and Long starts to leave the ring while shouting at Carlito who also heads up the ramp.]

-----------

JESUS AGUILERA vs. REY MYSTERIO

This wasn't a bad match at all. Both these men worked surprisingly well together, despite Rey Mysterio doing a good job of carrying Jesus. There was a lot of power moves from Jesus, some of which were reversed into DDTs and the like. The audience was hot for Rey Mysterio, who was his usual self. Good ending with Rey Mysterio going for his Head-Scissor Takedown, but Jesus reversing it into a nice looking Facebuster modification. which led to him getting the pinfall.

-----------

Cole: An impressive win over Rey Mysterio, by Jesus! I must admit that he's got the potential to make it big here on Smackdown!

Tazz: Yeah, but I can't wait for our match later on which is going to be off the chain!

Cole: The Bra and Panties match between Carlito and Heidenreich?

Tazz: I'm sure you think that's gonna be a rocketbuster, but I'm talking about our mainevent! Booker T, Eddie Guerrero, and The Big Show in a Triple Threat for a shot at Kurt Angle's title at the Royal Rumble!

-----------

BACKSTAGE SHENANIGANS

[Dawn Marie and Miss Jackie are brawling backstage when Theodore Long comes to separate them.]

Long: I'm tired of these backstage shenanigans between the two of you so I've decided that we're going to settle this inside that ring! But I know that that match isn't going to go down without interference so I'm gonna make this a three on three match! Up next…we're gonna see Dawn Marie and The Dudleyz take on Miss Jackie, Charlie Haas and Funaki

[He leaves as Miss Jackie and Dawn Marie stare each other down]

-----------

Cole: Did you hear that, Tazz? A three on three intergender match coming up next!

Tazz: I heard! I heard!

-----------

THE DUDLEYZ & DAWN MARIE vs. THE ODD DUO & MISS JACKIE

This was the average tag team match between The Odd Duo and The Dudleyz. Whenever Dawn Marie and Miss Jackie were in the ring…it got boring. In the end Miss Jackie won with a quick rollup on Dawn Marie.

The true end came after Dawn Marie became pissed and ordered The Dudleyz to do what they do best. Put people through tables. After putting all three members of the opposite team through tables, The Dudleyz and Dawn Marie made their exit.

-----------

Cole: Did you see that! How could those Dudleyz do such a thing to Miss Jackie and her friends?!

Tazz: I was too busy concentrating on Dawn Marie to see what was happening!

Cole: You are too much, Tazz. Ladies and Gentlemen, still to come tonight in our mainevent…A Triple Threat Match to determine the #1 Contender for Kurt Angle's WWE Championship!

Tazz: I've got my money on The Big Show, Cole! There is no way in hell Eddie Guerrero or even Booker T can match up to his size or power!

Cole: I've just received news that Josh Matthews is standing backstage with Eddie Guerrero!

LATINO HEAT IS BACK, HOLMES!

[Eddie Guerrero is standing backstage with Josh Matthews.]

Matthews: Eddie Guerrero, tonight you wrestle against both The Big Show and Booker T in a Triple Threat Match for a shot at Kurt Angle's title. What are your thoughts right now?

Eddie: What are my thoughts, Holmes? Eddie Guerrero doesn't need thoughts! He knows he's gonna go in there and defeat Booker T and he's gonna defeat The Big Show and then he's gonna defeat Kurt Angle!

Matthews: Well…the odds are stacked against…

Eddie: Josh Matthews…tu eres loco Vato! Sure…Booker T is tough and all. The Big Show is big and all, but in the end they're no match for Latino Heat! Viva mi raza!

[He leaves smiling and laughing]

-----------

Cole: Eddie Guerrero's almost guaranteeing he's going to win the match, tonight!

Tazz: I don't know. It could go one of three ways! I seriously don't know.

UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH | BRA AND PANTIES

HEIDENREICH vs. CARLITO CARIBBEAN COOL©

This was a fun match with both men coming out in bikinis. The crowd couldn't stop jeering and poking fun. Wrestling-wise, it was decent with Carlito as the coward and Heidenreich as the unstoppable monster. In the end however, Heidenreich couldn't take the humiliation from the crowd and ripped off his clothes, thus DQing him from the match.

-----------

Tazz: That Heidenreich is one weird man, Cole.

Cole: I could not agree more, Tazz. I could not agree more.

THE CRUISERWEIGHT TITLE WAS ON THE LINE!

[A collection of wrestlers are sitting backstage around the television. We see The F.B.I., Rob Van Dam, Jeff Hardy, Spike Dudley, as well as some others]

Spike: Carlito won! Give me the Cruiserweight Title, Nunzio!

Nunzio: I was robbed! That doesn't count! Heidenreich disqualified himself!

Spike: It doesn't matter! A bet's a bet! You bet the Cruiserweight Title that Heidenreich would win and he lost! So give me the damn belt!

[spike grabs the title, but Nunzio grabs it back. The two of them tug back and forth until Rob Van Dam and Jeff Hardy join in the fray]

Long: Hold on a minute, Playas! If we have a problem, we're gonna settle this in the ring! Now I've got four cards here, each one representing a method of winning a match. Take on!

[Each one takes a card.]

Long: Now get down to the ring because right now we're having a Fatal Fourway for the Cruiserweight Title!

[He leaves as the four competitors look at their cards]

-----------

Cole: Wow! We're gonna see another title on line here tonight! The Cruiserweight Title!

Tazz: And the fact that you can win only by the method described on your card makes it even more crazy!

CRUISERWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP | WILD CARD MATCH

SPIKE DUDLEY vs. ROB VAN DAM vs. JEFF HARDY vs. NUNZIO

This match was pure awesomeness. The crowd was into this from the beginning to end, and it's no surprise seeing as that each man tried to change his tactics to accommodate their winning requirement. Rob Van Dam tried getting himself knocked out with a weapon so he could win via DQ, but no one else would go for a weapon. Spike needed the normal pinfall, but whenever he went for the pin it would be broken up. Jeff Hardy could win via countout, but it was near impossible for him to throw all three men out of the ring. Nunzio ended up winning after locking in a Leglock on Spike making him tap.

-----------

Cole: What a match! Nunzio retains his Cruiserweight Title!

Tazz: Good effort from all the men involved, but guess what we've got next, Cole!

Cole: The mainevent! A Triple Threat Match between Eddie Guerrero, Booker T, and The Big Show to determine the #1 Contender to Kurt Angle's title!

CLASH OF THE CONTENDERS

[booker T is warming up in his locker room when Eddie Guerrero walks in]

Eddie: Esse! I see you're warming up for our match up next!

Booker: Look man, this isn't even gonna be no match! This is gonna be me kicking *** and then going on to take back what was rightfully mine, the WWE Championship. Now can you dig that, Sucka?

[booker T leaves the room as Eddie Guerrero looks confused]

-----------

Cole: Well…here goes!

#1 CONTENDERS MATCH | TRIPLE THREAT

BOOKER T vs. EDDIE GUERRERO vs. THE BIG SHOW

This was the match of the night as it was given around 20 minutes. The crowd was hot for all three men who put in an outstanding effort. The match consisted of both Eddie Guerrero and Booker T fighting each other, until deciding to work together to tire out The Big Show. There was a nice spot with Booker T hitting the Scissors Kick on Show, with Eddie hitting the Frog Splash after. In the end it came down to Kurt Angle running down to the ring and hitting both Booker T and The Big Show with Angle Slams, allowing Eddie Guerrero to pin The Big Show!

-----------

Cole: What the hell! Kurt Angle helping Eddie Guerrero?!

Tazz: Maybe the two of them are working together, Cole! I wouldn't be surprised with Eddie and Angle's cheating and whatnot.

Cole: Ladies and Gentlemen, what a night it has been here in Las Vegas! Make sure to join us next Thursday for a special Year-in-Review show, where Smackdown will be joining with Raw!
