WWE After Wrestlemania XIX

[Kapalua2483]

That's Right. This diary is getting a kick start with the new start of these boards. I am starting from the VERY Beginning of part 1. I have to not put up the April 3rd Smackdown because it got corrupted so I am starting from the April 6 Heat. Most of the first two months is purely recaps due to some lost files but after that it's all written. It will lead up to new shows. Which will include the finish to Wrestlemania XX as well as shows beyond that. Once we hit Mania XX. It will convert into TEW. I Truely hope to have the files converted by then. I am giving myself quite a while since I won't be posting all the shows at once. I will do the recaps, Backlash and Judgement Day will both go up. Then I will begin posting 2-3 updates/shows a day. So everyone sit back and enjoy!

Jazz vs Trish Stratus

(WWE Women's Championship, Falls Count Anywhere Match)

This match is one of those hard hitting impact matches that Trish and Jazz had last year. This is a very good match for a Women's match which are normally not very good quality wrestling. Jazz hits a big spinebuster in the middle of the match getting a long two count. Trish hits a Chick-Kick for a long two count. Trish tries a Stratusfaction but Jazz ends up sending Trish crashing down onto a trash can that had been brought into the ring. Jazz then quickly locks in her STF and Trish has to tap out! Jazz's music hits and she raises her arms in the air as the Championship is handed to her. Good solid Match by the women as Raw goes to commercial break.

They come walking to the ring as Both WWE Tag Team Titles hang high above the ring now with Tables, Ladders and Chairs surrounding the ringside area and a set of Two Tables a Ladder and a Chair in the ring.

Triple H vs "Stone Cold" Steve Austin

(World Heavyweight Championship, Barbed Wire Match)

(RAW Main Event)

The ringside area had to be cleaned up significantly after the last match. Crews spent about five minutes doing it. In this time there was a video segment of the History past and recent history of Austin and HHH. Once the Low Rider had been moved as well as all the Tables, Ladders and Chairs though a few still good items were pushed under the ring. Barbed Wire was then wrapped around the ring ropes so that they could bounce off the ropes but it would hurt..alot. As well as Barbed Wire around the ringposts. ITS TIME TO PLAY THE GAME..MUAHAHAHA! Triple H's strobes and his entrance hits. Very eerie looking overlooking the Graveyard. A Graveyard cam is watching Triple H come out onto the set. He then walks down to the ring with nobody by his side. He walks down to the ring with a purpose. He can't do his water spit with this match. He'd cut himself. So Triple H carefully walks up the ringsteps inching along the apron and climbing into the ring. He winds up knicking his leg as he gets in but ignores it. Triple H then taunts the crowd once in the Barbed Wire ring! Then..THE GLASS SHATTERS! Stone Cold's Music by Disturbed blasts all over the ring as he comes down to the ring holding the World Heavyweight Championship in hand. He stalks to the ring and rolls under the bottom rope. The barbed wire snagging his vest and Austin has to pull himself out of it. He can't do his four corners taunt either cause of the Barbed Wire. So both men stare holes through each other in the ring. The bell rings starting the match as Earl Hebner hands the belt out of the ring by tossing it over the top rope. Both men lock up and try to power each other back into a barbed wire corner! They after a moment break it. Austin gets kicked in the gut by Triple H when he comes back in for a lock up. Triple H then whips Austin to the ropes..AW MAN!..Austin groans as he comes off the ropes his back cut. Triple H carries Austin into a spinebuster off of the ropes slamming Austin down hard! Triple H then backs up a bit from Austin hitting a knee drop to Austin's head. Triple H gets on top of Austin beginning to pound down on his head. Austin throws HHH off him getting to his feet. Austin clotheslines HHH back down as HHH runs at him. Austin picks HHH up and..oh no Austin throws HHH over the top rope but HHH grabs the top rope as he goes over...Gashes in the hands there! Austin slides under the bottom rope barely avoiding being cut. Austin picks HHH up whipping him HARD into the steel ring steps! Austin picks HHH up into a body slam position. Austin then drops HHH down on the barricade chest first. Austin then..AW MAN HE THREW HHH UP INTO THE RING ROPES! HHH holds his back in pain. Cut open again on his back. Austin grabs HHH again whipping him into the Barbed Wire Ropes..Reversal! In goes Austin!!! Austin goes down in pain as he's cut open on his back now! Triple H goes reaching under the ring apron pulling a Steel Chair out from the last match. He waits for Austin to get up and CRACK! Chair shot hard to the head! HHH picks Austin up sliding him back into the ring without cutting him mostly so he just gets in there. HHH then pulls out a ladder sliding it into the ring. A Table sliding that into the ring. A Trash can full of lids and weapons. Also..Oh man that SledgeHammer with the Head wrapped in Barbed Wire!!! Triple H has a sadistic grin on his face as he slides under the bottom rope holding it. Austin is on his knees groggily as HHH comes at him with it but Austin hits a BIG TIME Low Blow on HHH making him drop the sledgehammer! Austin picks up a trash can lid while HHH is getting up in pain. Austin gets a big pop from the trash can lid shot he gives HHH. Austin then sets up a ladder vertically leaning against one turnbuckle. Austin then sets the table up in another corner the same way. Austin then picks up the Steel Chair that HHH slid into the ring as well bringing it down hard on the back of HHH! Austin grabs HHH picking him up beginning to drag him towards the Barbed Wire yelling at him i'm gonna grind your face into meat! HHH counters with a HUGE Back Suplex on Austin laying him and himself out! HHH is up first picking up Austin as well. He whips Austin into the Ladder face first hard! HHH follows him in with a clothesline smashing Austin hard into the ladder. Austin falls to the mat and Triple H slams the ladder down on Austin! HHH picks up the chair using it to slam down on the Ladder!!! The crowd gasps each time Triple H does it. Triple H picks Austin up from that..Facebuster! Austin staggers back towards the ropes turned away from HHH regaining his bearings. HHH picks up the SledgeHammer...NO NO...CRACK INTO AUSTIN'S RIBCAGE! Austin bends over in horrible pain screaming. He gets up and HHH CLOCKS HIM IN THE HEAD WITH IT BUSTING HIM OPEN AND KNOCKING HIM OVER THE BARBED WIRE TOP ROPE!!!!! Austin lies on the outside of the ring completely out of it for a minute before HHH slides out of the ring getting him. HHH whips Austin at the ringpost but Austin somehow musters the strength to reverse it sending HHH INTO THE BARBED WIRE RINGPOST!!! That busts HHH Open. Both men are wearing Crimson Masks after a very short period of time. Their bodies are very obviously beaten and bloodied. Austin rolls back into the ring awaiting HHH. HHH slides back into the ring as Austin lies in wait. Austin..kick to the gut..no HHH Caught his foot! Spin around...Kick to gut by HHH!..PEDIGREE! HHH turns Austin over..1......2......3!!! ITS ALL ABOUT THE GAME! is heard as Triple H just lays there still with his arm on Austin completely out of it after such a brutal match. Not as high flying as the last match. A different type alltogether but still sick and awesome in the same respect!

Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle

(WWE Championship Hell In A Cell Match)

The crowd explodes after the Barbed Wire was removed from the ringposts and ring ropes being put underneath the ring. As the Hell in a Cell begins to lower down. As it does Michael Cole and Tazz lead into the video package of Brock Lesnar vs Kurt Angle! It shows all of their history over the last 5 months leading up to this huge match. Then once the camera focuses back on the ring. The Hell in a Cell structure is surrounding the immediate ringside area. Only the Announce Tables and a narrow area around the Cell is open to walk around. Then..Brock Lesnar's entrance music hits as the lights go down. The spotlight comes onto Lesnar as he stances on the set walking down to the Cell. The door is opened for him by a referee. Lesnar steps through leaping up onto the apron and then into the ring. Then once he's in the ring. "Medal" hits with Kurt Angle walking out onto the set and he walks to where he's standing between the graveyards raising his fists in the air as his pyro goes off from tombstones. A New Tombstone having been engraved with the name "Stone Cold" Steve Austin! Kurt with the WWE Championship around his waist walks down to the ring. He hands the belt to a referee outside the ring who holds it up high in the air. He steps through into the cell. Immediately after that the referee's lock it up with chains. Kurt Angle gets into the ring with Brock waiting along with Brian Hebner the referee. The bell sounds as Brian calls for it with the match beginning!

Brock gets up slowly, Kurt had gone down to a knee but got back to his feet. Brock is up and runs at Kurt but..KURT TAKES BROCK'S MOMENTUM WITH A BELLY TO BELLY OVERHEAD SUPLEX INTO THE CELL WHICH DOESN'T GIVE WAY! Brock ends up landing on his head (ala Shane at KoTR). The crowd gives a huge pop for this move. Apparently the rules had been changed since last year's Judgement Day was pinfalls anywhere on the or in the Structure. Kurt Covers Brock outside the ring..1...2...kickout by Brock! As this happens. Al Snow and Steve Blackman accompanied by Sean O'Haire beatdown the referees on the outside of the ring. They then steal the key for the lock on the chain while both men are down outside. They unlock the lock, pull the chains off and then run away leaving the ringside area. Kurt picks Brock up and drags him around the ring dragging his face along the mesh. He sees the door is unlocked for some reason. He backs Brock up throwing him THROUGH the door! It busts open the latch being broken by that move! Kurt fights Brock down the aisle kicking him, hitting hard fists. They fight over by the set. Kurt eventully in the Graveyard itself! goes for a Angle Slam! Brock reverses it though and kicks Kurt in the gut..F5..F5..F5!!! Kurt slams down from the F5 into the graveyard.

They fight near the middle of the cell after a moment. Kurt hits a hard Vertical Suplex on Brock making him writh in pain. Brock after that hits a NASTY German Suplex on him..Then all the Lights go down!...BONG.....BONG.....BONG....It's The Undertaker!!!

Don't take this the wrong way man, I'm not trying to be a dickhead .. but why are you reposting your whole diary?

Your reposting a whole year's worth of shows .. that's a lot. Why don't you just pick up where you left off? Or just give a recap of what's happened in the last few months (even though I'm sure your readers can pretty much remember anyway)
