WWE RAW. Held in The Air Canada Centre, Toronto Canada

WWE HEAT tapings-

The first HEAT match was between the Straight Edge superstar, CM Punk and the Crazy Luchadore, Super Crazy. This match already looks to be good.

The match started as both superstars locked up. Punk, being slightly larger than his opponent, overpowered Crazy, locking in a headlock. Crazy pushed Punk off, but Punk dodged a punch from Crazy and locked in a sleeper. Crazy, who was slowly drooping, stuck out a foot and it connected with the rope. The referee made Punk release the hold. Punk let go, but regained the initiative, leveling Crazy with an enzuiguri. Punk then lifted Crazy into a standing position and Irish-whipped Crazy to the corner. Punk lined up Crazy and nailed Crazy with a jumping knee attack. Punk, feeling a momentum rush lined up Crazy for another. He hits with another. Punk was wanting to finish off Crazy here and went for one final knee. But this time, all Punk connected with was turnbuckle. Crazy jumped at this opportunity, rolling Punk up. But Punk kicked out at the 2 count. Crazy stood up and climbed the turnbuckle, hoping to take down Punk, but Punk was too fast, pushing Crazy to the floor outside. While Punk sat inside taking a breather, the ref began to count out the mexican star. By the time the ref got to 8 though, Crazy was up and in the ring. But was demolished by a dropkick from Punk. Punk began working on Crazy's legs, taking out his strong point. At the 8 minute mark, Punk locked in a painful leglock. But Crazy was close to the ropes and was able to break the hold. But the damge was done, because when Crazy tried to stand, he was limping badly. Punk dropped Crazy again, delivering a stiff-looking dropkick to the knee. When Punk was sure that Crazy was not rising, he climbed the turnbuckle. When Crazy got to his feet again, Punk leapt off, aiming to hit a spinning elbow. But Crazy rolled out of the way, causing Punk to crash into the mat. Crazy stood up and delivered a smooth hurracanrana to Punk. Crazy went for the pin, but Punk kicked out at 2. Crazy looked at the ref, then stood up. He turned around and was decimated with Punk's Uranage. Punk then locked in the Anaconda Vice, and that was it for Crazy.

Your winner by submission, CM Punk

Punk walked over to Crazy. He held out his hand and helped Punk to his feet. Does this signify a face turn for Punk? Punk and Crazy head to the back together, the fans applauding their efforts.

The next HEAT match up was between the Monster, Snitsky and RAW's most special superstar, Eugene. Eugene entered the ring ring first. He grabbed a microphone.

“Hello, my name is Eugene. It's awesome in Canada. I..I met the Maple Leafs * cheer*, I went to the skydome, it's so cool in there. And I saw a cute little puppy dog walking down the road. I LOVE Canada. But my favourite part of Canada is the WWE fans...”

Snitsky's music hits, causing Eugene to drop the mic in fear. Snitsky walked to the ring as Eugene talked to the ref. As Snitsky entered the ring Eugene ran at Snitsky, clubbing him with heavy blows. But Snitsky just used his strength and shoved Eugene across to the other side of the ring. Eugene stood up and was hit with a vicious Big Boot, causing Eugene to drop like a sack of potatoes. But instead of going for the cover, Snitsky just picked Eugene up above his head. He held poor Eugene in the air for about five seconds, before letting Eugene drop straight on the ring. Snitsky then picked up Eugene again, who was unable to stand. Snitsky nearly tore Eugene's arm out of socket with an irish whip that sent Eugene into the turnbuckle at a very high speed. Eugene collided with the turnbuckle and was left knocked out. Snitsky then decided to finish Eugene off for good, as he delivered a powerful Pumphandle Slam to Eugene. Snitsky got the 3 count after that.

Your winner by pinfall, Snitsky

Snitsky looked down at the unconscious heap that was Eugene. As trainers and EMT's tended to Eugene, Snitsky walked to the back with a sick smile on his face.

We cut to JR and King.

“I'm Jerry Lawler here with good old JR by my side. And JR, it's looking to be a combustible RAW.”

“Your right, King. Tonight's match up between 'The Game' and Shawn Michaels will surely be a slobberknocker.”

“That's right JR. Don't forget, Johnny Nitro looks for another win tonight, as he faces 'The Nature Boy' Ric Flair. This cocky young star took out RVD last week, and looks to do the same tonight to Flair. Meanwhile, Santino Marella defends his Intercontinental Championship against 'The Masterpiece' Chris Masters. Can Marella retain his title, despite having to face 'The Masterpiece'. I couldn't handle myself, staring across the ring at the 'Masterpiece'.

“Oh, King. Shut up. Marella has proven that he can defend his title when he needs to. I think Marella can keep his title tonight.But King, don't forget about that explosive Tag Team match.”

“Yeah. The Hardy Boyz will team up with Cryme Tyme to face RAW's Redneck team, Cade and Murdoch and the World's Greatest Tag Team. This should be a very exciting match.”

“Can Randy Orton kill another 'legend'? He takes on Val Venis tonight.”

“Now, JR. I wouldn't exactly call Val Venis a 'legend'. But Orton will get the win over Val.”

...NO CHANCE...

“We will continue this argument later, King. Here comes Mr. McMahon. I wonder what he has planned for us.”

Vince grabs a microphone.

“Welcome, to WWE RAW. Live in Toronto Canada. Tonight will feature some big matches. But the main event will huge. We will determine the new number one contender to the WWE title held by John Cena. Will it be The Game, Triple H. Or The Showstopper, Shawn Michaels? But I'm not out here tonight to hype tonight's matches, no that's JR and King's job. I'm out here on two acts of official business. Firstly, I am here to announce that next week RVD will make his first defence of the Hardcore title when he takes on Bobby Lashley, 'The Monster' Gene Snitsky and a “new” superstar. Who will it be?”

The fans chatter at the announcement. JR and King contemplate on who it could be.

“And my second, biggest announcement for today is that RAW will have a brand new GM.”

Fans cheer.

“I will announce RAW's new GM next week on RAW.”

Vince drops the mic and struts to the back, a smirk on his face.

“Wow JR. What an announcement. A new GM. Maybe it's me?”

“Yeah, you wish King.”

Cena's music hits.

“King, look. It's the WWE champion John Cena.”

The Canadian crowd gives Cena deafening boos, which drown out the small group of cheering girls. Cena picks up the mic that Vince drops.

“THE CHAMP IS HERE!”

More boos.

“Yo, what's happening? THE CHAMP IS HERE!”

More boos, followed by a loud, “CENA SUCKS, CENA SUCKS.”

“Alright, enough of this. Y'all wanna see me put this title on the line?”

“ONLY IF YOU LOSE”

“That's it. First person to walk out that curtain gets a title shot.”

Cena waits.

“Come on, anyone. I don't care if you're Triple H or Viscera. I don't care if you're a Smackdown superstar. I'm waiting.”

Suddenly the arena goes dark, except for the titantron. The titantron is flashing many colours. The flashing speeds up, creating a sense of dizziness. Then the flashing stops and we are left with a single number on the screen.

5

“Yo, what's happening. Someone get out here.”

It seems that everytime Cena talks, the number lowers.

4

“What's with all the numbers, yo.”

3

“I'm sick of waiting. Anyone get out here.”

2

Cena freezes here. As he finally realises what's going on.

“No way. No way. No way.”

One final word is left sitting on the screen.

JERICHO

...BREAK THE WALLS DOWN...

The fans go absolutely nuts now, as a spotlight shines to the entrance ramp. There, microphone in hand, is Chris Jericho.

“Cut the music.”

Jericho stands there smiling.

“Remember me, John? Remember me? I got fired because of you. But I'm back tonight. Tonight, on RAW is JERICHO.”

Fans go apeshit for Jericho.

“CENA SUCKS. CENA SUCKS.”

“So John. I'm taking your challenge. Tonight, it's me against you. For that WWE title.”

Cena looks at Jericho, still disbeliving he is there.

“Fine, you got it Jericho. I sent one canadian to Smackdown last week. Lets see if I can send another there.”

The fans boo Cena like crazy at the remark against there hometown hero Edge.

“See you in the ring, John. Be a good boy and polish that title for me. It has to look good around the waist of Chris Jericho.”

Jericho drops the mic and walks out, fans going nuts for the return of Y2J. Cena stands in the ring, heavy boos flying at him from all directions. He just drops the mic, holds up the title and walks out.

“Well King, what a shock. Chris JERICHO makes his return to the ring. And he faces Cena tonight for the WWE title.”

“I know JR, I can't believe it either.”

Masters music begins.

“Wait JR. We can talk later. Here comes the Masterpiece.”

“That means it's time for our first match. Santino Marella defends the Intercontinental title against Chris Masters.”

“Quiet JR. Your defeating the awe of the Masterpiece's entrance.”

“Well I'm sorry, King.”

Marella enters next.

The ref rings the bell. Masters looks at Marella then runs, trying to surprise him. Masters sticks out an arm, ready to decapitate Marella. But Marella ducks the clothesline and delivers a beautiful looking dropkick to Masters' back. Masters is propelled forward into the ropes and bounces back. Marella quickly rolls up Masters and gets the shock win!

Your winner and still Intercontinental champion, Santino Marella

“Bah Gawd, King. Marella did it. He defeated the Masterpiece.”

Marella grabs his title and runs through the crowd, celebrating, as Masters picks up a steel chair. Masters, pissed off, throws the chair to the ground and walks to the back. Looking to get revenge on Marella.

“No. Masters lost? How does that happen?”

Mickie James' music plays.

“Look JR, PUPPIES!”

Melina and Nitro follow Mickie out.

“Well our next match appears to be Mickie James against Melina.”

Melina and Mickie face off across the ring. Mickie then leaps, taking Melina down with a spear. Mickie lays punches into Melina's head. Mickie gets back to her feet and moves back, looking to hit a Mick Kick. Melina stands up and turns around, but when Mickie goes for the kick, Nitro jerks the leg she is balancing on, causing her to crash hard into the mat. Melina gives James a vicious kick to the gut, before stepping on her head. Mickie rolls around in pain as the ref warns Melina to watch her actions. Melina plays up the innocent act well, then lays another boot into Mickie. Melina lifts Micke up now. She irish whips Mickie to the ropes. She tries to take Mickie down with a clothesline, but Mickie ducks underneath. Mickie hits a bulldog on Melina and goes for a pin, but only gets a two. Mickie is tripped again by Nitro as she stands. She stands up, runs at the ropes and hits a sliding dropkick on Nitro. Nitro crashes hard into the barricade. Mickie stands up. Melina is standing behind her with a chair. Melina swings the chair, but Mickie ducks. Mickie then kicks Melina and the midsection, causing her to drop the chair. Mickie then looks to finish the match hitting a devstating MickieDT. Mickie goes for the pin. She gets to the two count when she is jerked out of the ring by Nitro. She slams face first into the exposed floor, that Nitro took up. Nitro then grabs a chair. He lines up Mickie. This time she doesn't duck. Nitro polishes her off with with a sickening chair shot. The ref has no choice but to call for the bell.

Your winner by disqualification, Mickie James

Nitro grabs Melina's belt and drags Melina out of the ring. They slowly make their way up the ramp as Mickie is checked on.

“How cheap. Nitro knocked out poor Mickie with that chair shot, just to save his girlfriend title. We will return to RAW after this break.”

“Hey Mickie, need someone to kiss you better?”

“Oh, King.”

*COMMERCIAL*

“Welcome back to RAW. It's time for some explosive tag team action as The Hardyz and Cryme Tyme will team up to face Cade, Murdoch and The World's Greatest Tag Team.”

The two team are assembled and it will be Shad and Cade starting. Shad and Cade lock up. Shad sweeps out Cade's legs, knocking him down. Shad begins stomping away at Cade. Shad runs to the ropes, bounces off and is leveled with a clothesline from Cade. Cade tags in Benjamin. Benjamin drops some elbows on Shad, before lifting him to a sitting position.

Maria is backstage with Johnny Nitro and Melina.

“So, Nitro. You are facing Ric Flair tonight. Do you think you can beat him?”

“Do I think? I know I will beat him. I will destroy Ric Flair, just like I destroyed Rob Van Dam last week.”

“But Ric Flair has been wrestling for a long time. He knows more than you.”

“Excuse me? How dare you claim that Ric Flair is better than Johnny Nitro? He has me, the Women's champ, Melina by his side. But even if I wasn't there, he'd still win. Because Ric Flair is old. Ric Flair will not be able to keep up with a star like Johnny Nitro.”

“Aren't you at all worried that he might beat you?”

“What did we just say. Ric Flair cannot beat Nitro. I will make sure of that. And so will you.”

Melina grabs Maria by the hair and pulls her to the ring.

“Well JR, it appears that there will be three beautiful Divas at ringside for this match. Look at Candice.”

Candice is in the ring doing announcing duties.

As Melina, Maria and Nitro make there entrance, Maria tries to escape. But Melina has hold of her hair. Melina and Maria stand at ringside, Maria realising it's no use trying to escape.

Nitro and Flair meet in the centre of the ring. Naitch sticks out his hand for Nitro to shake. Nitro slaps him across the face. Flair recoils, then pounces on Nitro, punching him in the head. Flair quickly locks in a Figure 4, hoping to finish off the cocky star quickly. Nitro is just out of reach of the ropes. That is until Melina pulls him close enough.

*COMMERCIAL*

Nitro is backstage with Melina, rubbing his Jaw.

“Goddamn Michaels. He will regret sticking his nose in my business. I'll get payback, just you watch.”

“I know you will. But what about that bitch Candice, how dare she strip me in front of all those worthless Canadians. I'll show her stripping. Me against her next week. Bra and panties.”

Randy Orton makes his entrance first. The crowd boo him heavily. He gets on the mic.

“This is the first step before Orton climbs to the top and beats John Cena for the title”

He waits for Val Venis.

Val enters the ring and is ambushed by Orton. Orton lays into Val with some heavy blows. Orton takes a second to pose and that is all Val needs to regroup. Val pushes Orton to the ground.

Your winner by pinfall, Val Venis

Orton stands in the ring after Val has left. Cena is near the top of the ramp, when Orton calls him back.

“John Cena, how dare you interfere. I would have beaten Val if it wasn't for you. I demand a shot at your WWE title. Add me to that match with Jericho. I demand it.”

Before Cena can respond, Vince McMahon walks out.

“Randy, why do you deserve a title shot? You lost. If you complain again about a title shot I will fire you. But I can promise you this. You will be in my contenders tournament I'm holding next week. The winner will fight either John Cena, Chris Jericho, Triple H or Shawn Michaels on the Monday Night RAW straight after Judgment Day.”

Vince walks out, leaving Randy Orton slightly more happier.

Chris Jericho is backstage with Maria, who is wearing a new shirt.

“Hey, Chris. Are you ready for your match against John Cena?”

“I am more ready than ever, little lady. All the Jerichoholics in attendance will scream my name when I lock John Cena in the Walls of Jericho. There will be no escape. Do you wanna join me in my little celebration party after I win?”

“Where is it?”

“Back at my hotel, baby.”

“Will there be cake?”

“Oh yeah, there will be everything. Cake, food, music, balloons and The Ayatollah of Rock and Roll, Y2J Chris Jericho.”

Jericho's party explanation is interupted by Shawn Michaels.

“So. You're back? Well here's a warning. If you beat Cena tonight, I'm coming after your title. You think RAW is Jericho? Just wait till the Showstopper takes over RAW. No one will stop me. No one CAN stop me.”

HBK walks off in the direction of the lockerooms.

“So anyway, are you going to come back to Jericho's pad? For my party?”

“Yes, definitely Chris.”

Jericho smiles...

Carlito is standing in the ring.

“For the past couple of weeks I have been shown no respect. I have seen Chris Masters get an Intercontinental title shot, but not Carlito. Dat's not cool. Carlito demands to fight Santino Marella at Judgment Day. I will take the title off him. I will show the WWE fans a good representative. A good champion.”

...No Chance...

Vince walks out.

“So, Carlito. You think you deserve to get an Intercontinental title shot do you. Well you can have the title shot if you win your next match. Your opponent will be...”

Umaga's music hits

“The SAMOAN Bulldozer, Umaga.”

Umaga enters the ring. Carlito stares at Umaga. Carlito rushes Umaga, but the Samoan Bulldozer lifts Carlito. Umaga then demolishes Carlito with a devestating Samoan Drop. Umaga hit a Samoan Spike on Carlito and pinned him.

Your winner by pinfall, Umaga

*COMMERCIAL*

We return from the commercial to find officials surrounding the bloodied body of Shawn Michaels. Vince runs up.

“Who did this?”

Cryme Tyme walk over to Vince.

“Yo, we saw who did it.”

“Who did this. Tell me now.”

“Uh uh uh, we don't just do things for free. It's gonna cost ya.”

“You can't be serious, I'm Vincent Kennedy McMahon dammit.”

“It's gonna cost you no matter who you are.”

Vince grumbles and pulls out a fifty.

“There, now who did this.”

“Oh, we forgot.”

Vince walks off angry. He runs into Super Crazy.

“Do you know who attacked Shawn Michaels?”

“Si”

“Well, can you tell me who did it?”

“Si”

Vince waits.

“Come tell me. WHO ATTACKED SHAWN MICHAELS?”

Crazy stops in fear. He points behind Vince. Vince looks behind him and sees The Great Khali. Khali looks at Vince then walks off.

“Well King. It appears we know who attacked Shawn Michaels. But whether Michaels can make it to our Main Event is the main question.”

“Well, it's now time for the WWE title match. Chris Jericho actually returned this week and answered an open challenge from John Cena. Can Jericho finally beat John Cena for the WWE title?

Once both Jericho and Cena are in the ring the ref rings the broken ring bell.

Jericho stares at Cena. Cena signals for Jericho to “bring it”. Cena and Jericho circle the ring, before locking up. They stay locked up for about a minute, as neither competitor can gain the advantage. Eventually Cena grabs Jericho in a headlock. Jericho elbows his way out and whips Cena into the ropes. Jericho bends down ready to hit a back body drop, but Cena reverses with a kick to the chest. Jericho recoils. Cena hits a running shoulderblock knocking Jericho off his feet. Cena taunts to the crowd for a second, receiving a heavy stream of boos. Jericho stands and spins Cena around. He chops Cena's chest drawing “WOOO” chants. Jericho then places Cena on the second rope. He then does a little shuffle and runs to the rope. He bounces off and runs to where Cena is hung up and bounces off Cena's back. Jericho prepares to lock in the Walls of Jericho. He gets halfway before Cena pushes out of it. Jericho kicks the bottom rope. Cena stands up and is taken down by a clothesline. Jericho lays some heavy boots to Cena's head. The King of the World then signaled for the Lionsault. Y2J attepmpted the Lionsault, but Cena rolled out of the way. Cena ran at the fallen Jericho, but Jericho speared Cena to the ground. “I am King of the World.” Jericho tries to lock Cena in the Walls again. And he succeeds. Cena is locked in the Walls of Jericho. Cena struggles to reach the ropes. He gets close to the ropes. John Cena is nearly hyperextending his arm, just to reach the ropes. Just as Cena is about to grab the ropes, Jericho drags Cena back to the centre of the ring. Cena cannot last much longer, He raises his hand. He lets it drop, but still doesn't tap. Jericho is getting frustrated, so he pulls back more. But this is a bad move. Jericho tires out quickly. This allows Cena to summon up the rest of his strength, as he pushes himself off the ground and drags both him and Jericho to the ropes. Jericho is forced to release the hold. Jericho whips Cena into the corner. He charges, but Cena lifts a boot. Jericho staggers back and knocks out the referee. Jericho lifts Cena up and goes for a suplex, but Cena knees Jericho and suplexes Y2J instead. Cena does the You Can't see Me taunt and lifts Jericho up for the FU. He drops Jericho down with a thunderous FU. Randy Orton runs in and RKO's Cena. While Orton begins reviving the ref, Jericho finally nails the Lionsault. The Ayatollah of Rock and Roll does another one, just for good measure. Jericho begins pinning Cena. The now revived ref counts the pinfall.

Your winner and NEW WWE champion, Chris Jericho

As Y2J celebrates with his newly won title, Orton stands up. He walks over the Y2J and puts his hand out. Jericho looks at his hand, and he shakes it. Jericho turns to leave but Orton pulls him back. He points at the title and RKO's Jericho. Otron signals that he wants the title.

As Jericho passes Triple H, Hunter signals that the title will be his a Judgment Day. Triple H climbs in the ring and grabs a microphone.

“I was scheduled to face my old friend Shawn Michaels tonight, but he was unfortunately attacked earlier tonight by The Great Khali. So it appears that Shawn cannot make the ring tonight, which means I win by forfeit. I win the title shot at Judgment Day. And I am officially better than Shawn Michaels.”

The fans boo the loudest for Triple H.

“So Chris Jericho, I will see you at Judgment Day.”

As Triple H goes to leave the ring, Shawn Michaels music begins playing. The fans pop like crazy. Triple H stares in disbelief. When Michaels walks out from behind the curtain, he is a bloody mess. It seems he only just regained consiousness. He staggers to the ring.

Michaels stares at Trips as we go to commercial.

*COMMERCIAL*

When we return from commercial, Shawn Michaels slides in the ring. The referee rings the bell and the match starts.

The Game stands face to face with Shawn. Shawn is staggering. Trips gives Michaels a very light, one finger push and Shawn falls like a sack of bricks. The Game just smiles. He picks Michaels up and gets ready to give him a Pedigree. The Cerebral Assasin then told the referee to count the fall to Ten. Trips laid out Michaels with a sick-looking Pedigree, which was definatley oversold. The Game then pinned the Showstopper for a ten count. But Shawn showed no response whatsoever.

Your winner by pinfall, Triple H

EMT's rush out to check on Shawn. But Johnny Nitro beat them to HBK. Nitro began stomping HBK. The Game looked at what the young rookie was doing. Trips also started stomping Michaels. John Cena ran out to save Michaels, FUing Nitro in the process. Orton comes out of nowhere though, RKOing Cena to slow his momentum. But Chris Jericho, looking for revenge on Orton runs out with a chair. Trips, Nitro and Orton all leave the ring as Jericho swings the chair. Jericho throws the chair at orton, who dodges.

Vince McMahon walks out as Cena helps Shawn Michaels to his feet.

“All this mayhem has given me the perfect idea. Next week on RAW, in the Main Event, we will see Triple H, Johnny Nitro and Randy Orton team up. They will fight the team of Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho and John Cena.”

Chris Jericho and John Cena stare at each other. Cena asks to shake Jericho's hand. Jericho accepts and they raise the WWE title as Jericho's music plays.

This rush of new talent will fill up OVW for many months to come. WWE have also begun negotiations with former stars Raven and Hulk Hogan. Raven will either manage a newer star or wrestle again. Hogan will be working backstage till a suitable storyline is found for him.

Well, I must say. You're improvement is remarkable. I read your RAW show, and it was MUCH better. One thing I loved, was when Jericho came back, but the fact that he won the title in the same night, not so much. That was a definant Pay Per View match, and you could'a had them feud for a while. Anyway, keep up the good work, it's paying off.

[Meacon Keaton]

Hahaha! Did Mark Henry really injure Shawn Waters the first night he was called up from OVW?!?! If so, thats the funniest thing I've ever seen on this board. But I'm with everyone else. The further you go, the better you improve. High five.

WWE HEAT tapings

The first of our HEAT matches is between The Vampirism follower, Kevin Thorn and The Prince of Punk, Shannon Moore.

The match starts with Thorn delivering a stiff-looking clothesline to Moore. Thorn then stalks Moore. When Moore gets up, he is destroyed by another clothesline. Moore slowly stands. He he grabbed from behind by Thorn, who gives him a strong backbreaker. Thorn goes for the pinfall, but only gets a two. Thorn lifts Moore, then irish whips him into the corner. Thorn runs at Moore and crushes the crusierweight with a shouldercharge. Thorn walks back, then runs and hits another shouldercharge. Thorn then lifts Moore to the top turnbuckle. He climbs up with Moore. He grabs Moore to hit a superplex. Moore starts attacking with some headbutts, knocking Thorn down. Moore leaps off but is caught by Thorn. Thorn then destoys the PoP with a devestaing powerbomb. Thorn pins Moore for the three count. (No pun intended.)

Your winner by pinfall, Kevin Thorn

(Match Rating: D+)

The next match is a high-flying crusierweight match. Jamie Noble will be taking on the Asian Redneck, Jimmy Wang Yang. Winning this match will really set yourself on course to win the Crusierweight championship.

The match starts with Yang and Noble locking up. They are stuck in a stablemate, until Noble quickly locks a hammerlock in on Yang. Yang reverse the hammerlock into a hammer lock. Noble, trying to release himself, swings and elbow, which connects with Yang's head. Yang loosens the hold, allowing Noble to twist Yang's arm. Noble then wrenches Yang's arm twice, before hitting a calf kick on Yang, knocking him to the ground. Noble, who still has a hold of the arm, legdrops Yang's arm, before locking in an armbar. Noble lets go after a minute, before climbing onto the second rope. Noble waits for Yang to rise, before jumping off and nailing Yang with a diving hammer. Noble picks Yang up, then irish whips him to the ropes. Noble tries to flip Yang over for a back body drop, but Yang dives over Noble before pulling him into a sunset pin. Yang gets a two. Noble stands up, right into a dropkick from the redneck. Yang does his hoedown dance, before lining up Noble. When Noble stands, Yang drills him with an Enzuiguri. Yang goes for the pin straight after, but Noble kicks out before the two. Yang delivers a suplex to Noble, then climbs the turnbuckle. He goes for the Moonsault, but Noble rolls out fo the way. Yang stands up holding his chest. Noble spins him around and lifts Yang onto his shoulders. Noble then delivers a modified F5/gutbuster, before pinning Yang for the 3.

Your winner by pinfall, Jamie Noble
