The WWE Raw Recap - New Champ Edition
Hit F5 to refresh for the latest updates!

Tonight WWE Raw is live in Providence, RI! The show starts with Shane McMahon pulling up into the parking garage in his sports cars, getting out and glad-handing with a few fans, kissing Trish Stratus (where'd SHE come from??) and cutting off Dolph Ziggler before he can start his spiel. He goes straight out to the arena stage and addresses the WWE Heavyweight Title situation. Since both Batista and Chris Jericho have unanswered rematch clauses due to their title losses, these two will face each other in a #1 Contenders Match to settle who gets next dibs.

Before he can finish though, Stephanie McMahon comes out and says that Randy Orton also has valid reasons why he should get a title re-match, he lost his title via injury as well. So she is adding Randy Orton to this match and making it a Triple Threat match. She says that furthermore, she is also adding John Morrison & Mike "the Miz" Mizain vs. Shawn Michaels & Rey Mysterio as a rematch from last week... except Shane McMahon cuts her off to announce it as well.

From here, the brother and sister get into a bickering argument about who is going to run WWE Raw. Stephanie says that she "didn't want to do this in public" but she is staking her claim on the show and is not going to let Shane stab her in the back about it. Shane responds that this has never been the case, but just the opposite, Stephanie is the one who does the backstabbing, but he begs her not to let this go on in public anymore. Stephanie continues, and tells Shane, "You can get back in your sports car and drive back to New York City where you came from." She tells him that he can run WWE's corporate side if he wants, but she will run WWE Raw. Shane responds, "So do you mean you want to run WWE Raw, or do you want to go back to your M-O where you sleep with yet another WWE superstar to obtain power and dump your old lover?" OOOOH SCHNAPP!

Stephanie slaps Shane in the face. Shane says, "If you want to run WWE Raw... then I will watch you run it into the ground!" Shane walks off and we go right into our first match.

Shawn Michaels & Rey Mysterio vs. John Morrison & Mike "the Miz" Mizain

We start the match with Mysterio and Morrison locking up, but just a few seconds in, before I can even recap the action, we switch to the back where John "Bradshaw" Layfield is sitting in his limousine, he tells the driver to start the car and drive. The driver says, "But, sir, there is a match going on right now!" and JBL responds, "I don't pay you to think, I pay you to drive. Now lets drive... to the ring."

We go back to the ring and Shawn Michaels has tagged in, Morrison bumps Mysterio off of the apron, they wrestle around but you can't focus on this match now because the announcers are talking about what just happened back stage, and then we get JBL's entrance music, the limo pulls in, and JBL takes the stage. Morrison tags out to Mizain, who is choking Michaels in the corner, Morrison looks up the ramp to see what the action is, and we go to commercial.

We get back to the action, Mizain is pinning Shawn Michaels. We flash back to the commercial break where we see Mizain throw Rey Mysterio into the ring barrier, taking him out of the match. We switch to JBL watching the match, Shawn Michaels fights his way out of a side headlock, executes a belly-to-back suplex, both men go down. Michaels struggles to make a tag, but he has no partner to tag. Mizain tags in Morrison, who drags Michaels back to the midle of the ring, pummels him, mounts him on the top turnbuckle, lays in a few punches, climbs up to set up a Superplex, Michaels blocks it twice, punches Morrison in the ribs, Morrison tries for a third time, Michaels lays him out with a front face slam. Michaels crawls down into the ropes, crawls across them and makes the tag to Mysterio just as Morrison tags in Mizain.

Mysterio cleans house on Mizain, hitting all his usual comeback high-spots, headscissor takeover sends Mizain head-first into the turnbuckle, Mysterio then hits a RVD-style split-legged moonsault into a pin attempt, followed by a seated senton splash off the top, followed by the 6-1-9 on Mizain. Morrison runs over to try to stop Rey from hitting the splash from the top, Michaels takes him out, they brawl to the outside. Mizain goe sto cut off Mysterio, climbs up, Mysterio with a sunset flip powerbomb off the top rope into the pin!

WINNERS: Shawn Michaels & Rey Mysterio. John Morrison runs in and attacks Mysterio from behind, throws him out of the ring. Michaels gets in, Morrison stomps his ass to the mat, pummels him, and the referee is not breaking this up. John Layfield gets into the ring and takes his coat off. Morrison hems up Michaels for him, Layfield tells him to back off, he'll do it himself. Michaels is on his knees, Layfield is looking to kick Michaels in the head... but kicks Morrison in the face instead! Layfield puts his jacket back on and leaves, Michaels looks up with a bewildered look on his face, wonder what in the fuck just happened! Off to a break.

We go backstage where Todd Grisham tries to get an interview with JBL about what just happened. Layfield says that this morning he made an offer to Shawn Michaels, and that the two are mulling over some sort of mutually-beneficial deal. The act he performed in the ring was a "good faith" act to show Michaels that he was serious about it.

Back in the ring, Lillian Garcia announces the return of MIIIISSSSSSTTEEERRRRR KEEEENNNEEEDY! The star of the soon-to-be-released "Behind Enemy Lines" movie. Kennedy comes out, thanks the fans, mentions that he was off shooting the new movie, and was at Survivor Series last night and decided to go interview the fans over this pressing question... "What WWE Superstar Reminds You of Barack Obama". (Wait? Didn't Kennedy push for John McCain??). We then flip to video footage of fans giving their own answers, and it's all over the place. Some are basing it on looks, some are basing it on political ideologies. One kid blurts out that he thinks Vince McMahon best resembles Barack Obama. Why? Because for one, they're both stubborn, and another is that they both have big ears! Kennedy pulls up their pics on the TitanTron and WOW, they do!

Kennedy says he is shocked that nobody mentioned another WWE star... one who has a presidential-sounding name, is young, charasmatic... who is.... MIIIISSSSSTTTTTEERRRR KEEEENNNEEEDY!!! (KENNEDY!) ... and the fans pop for it!

We go backstage with John Grisham again, interviewing Batista about tonight's Triple Threat Match for the #1 Contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Batista says first of all he has to congratulate John Cena for taking back the WWE World title in his hometown, it's thrilling and exhilarating, Batista has experienced it before, and he wants to experience it again. Tonight he will go on to win the Triple Threat match, and he will face John Cena at the WWE Armageddon PPV for the title. He thanks Grisham for his time and leaves, we take a commercial.

WWE Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender Tournament:
WWE World Tag Team champion Kofi Kingston vs. Kane

Oh yeah, I forgot to mention this, WWE announced that they're starting a Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender tournament in honor of the release of the WWE 3-disc DVD set, "History of the WWE Intercontinental Championship". The winner of the tournament will face WWE Intercontinental Champion William Regal at the WWE Armageddon PPV. Lillian Garcia in the ring introduces us to the first-ever WWE Intercontinental Champion, WWE Hall-of-Fame member Pat Patterson! Patterson will be at ringside for color commentary.

Kane kicks Kingston in the gut at the bell, lays in a few punches, a body slam, bounces off the ropes and dropkicks Kingston in the face, cover and a two count. Kane whips Kingston off the ropes, Kingston ducks a elbow, lays in a few kicks and a dropkick to the knees, bounces off the ropes, Kane kicks him in the face, covers, two count. Kane whips Kingston into the corner, catches him out of the buckle, tries for a side slam, Kingston wiggles out. Kane tries for a clothesline in the corner, Kingston ducks it, dropkicks, lays in some punches, Kane no-sells it all and punches him in the face, whips him in the corner and charges.

Kingston tries to bounce off the ropes again, Kane catches him in the choke slam, Kingston wiggles out of it, bounces off the ropes, another dropkick that sends Kane out of the ring. Kingston launches himself off the top turnbuckle to the floor, nailing Kane, but hurting himself. Kane kicks Kingston in the gut, throws him into a ringpost, and wraps his body around the inside corner of the post, stretching him out. Referee gives him a five-count, Kane doesn't break, and draws a DQ.

WINNER: Kofi Kingston, via DQ. WHAT THE FUCK?? The action is outside the ring, Kane has a TEN COUNT! Not a five! Kane gets pissed, picks up the top of the steel ringsteps, throws it in the ring, gets in, and knocks Kingston senseless with it. Stephanie McMahon comes out and addresses Kane. "Kane, you have two choices. You can take your aggressions out on Kofi Kingston, which you have already done, or you can take them out on the new World Heavyweight Champion." Kane looks at Mrs. McMahon-Helmsley and grins. "That's what I thought," she continues. "Next week on Raw, Kane vs. John Cena." Off to commercial.

The Subway "WWE Slam of the Week" is Randy Orton and Cody Rhodes teaming to eliminate Dave Batista at Survivor Series last night. And I'm SHOCKED that they're actually playing videos rather than just photo stills with the sounds. "The Age of Orton is back!"

Triple Threat Match for #1 Contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship:
"Y2J" Chris Jericho vs. "the Animal" Batista vs. "the Legend Killer" Randy Orton

Yeah, but the Age of Jericho hasn't ended just yet, because the dethroned WWE World Heavyweight Champion is now coming out to the ring, looking very upset and subtly pissed off that he now has to fight two other people before he can even get his mitts on a rematch. Randy Orton comes out next, we cut backstage to see Cody Rhodes and Manu watching a backstage television of the match. Orton and Jericho trade dirty looks, referee Mike Chiota holds back Jericho from approaching Orton. Batista enters last and it's all pops from the fans. Both Orton and Jericho give dirty looks to Batista, and Chiota is going to have his hands full!

The bell rings, Batista attacks Orton, Jericho tries to attack Batista from Behind, Batista backs him up, fends off Orton again, sams Jericho in the corner and lays in a shoulder block, puts Orton in another corner, another shoulder block, whip to the opposite corner, locks back up with Jericho, wins a slugfest, whips Jericho off the ropes, nails a clothesline, covers, two count. Batista goes back to Orton, punches him in the ribs, in the face, whips him off the ropes and lays in a tight reverse elbow, snap mare takeover, bounces off the ropes and boots Orton in the face. Covers with a forearm over the face, two count.

Jericho comes over and lays in some forearm shots, Batista no-sells, then kicks Orton in the face, sending him outside. Orton with a snap mare on Jericho, goes to bounce off the ropes, Orton grabs Batista's legs and drags him out of the ring. Orton gets up on the apron, Jericho with a springboard missile dropkick off the top turnbuckle, cover in the ring, two count. Jericho whips Orton into the corner, catches him out of the buckle with a bulldog. Jericho goes for the Lionsault, Orton rolls in towards him, which OF COURSE means that Jericho bites the mat instead. Orton is setting up for the RKO ... AND WE GO TO A FUCKING COMMERCIAL! GODDAMNIT COME ON! AUGH.

Back live on Raw, Batista tries to hit Jericho with the Batista Bomb, but Jericho wiggles out and goes into a sunset flip, Batista rolls it into a pin, but Orton breaks it up. During the break we see that Batista pulled Orton out of the ring before he could hit the RKO on Jericho and threw him into the ringside barrier. Back in the ring though, Orton pummels Batista, stomps him in the breadbasket, then stares at him, deeply and lovingly (I kid you not! It looks like lust!) Orton walks behind Batista, sits him up, lays in cross punches to the chest, cover, two count. Jericho jumps in and clubs Batista in the back several times, then Orton joins in for a double-team stomping. Jericho kicks Batista in the ribs, Orton gives him a thumbs up. Jericho whips Batista towards Orton, who delivers a clothesline, then continues and gives Jericho a reverse elbow that sends him reeling into the corner.

Batista recovers, whips Orton into the ropes, ducks down, Orton kicks him in the face, Jericho recovers and delivers an enziguri to Orton, covers, Batista breaks it up. Batista goes to town on both men, whips them into the opposite corners, whips Orton into Batista, takes him out with a clothesline, catches Jericho in a side slam, but Orton flies back in with a clothesline to the back as Batista goes for a pin.

Orton gets down in Batista's face, quietly taunting him as the fans chant "Ba-tis-ta! Ba-tis-ta!" Orton stands up, he's backing up and is going for the punt, he charges, BATISTA WITH THE SPEAR! Batista goes for the cover, 1... 2... Jericho breaks it up with a dropkick to the face! He rolls Orton out of the way, he hooks Batista's leg... 1.. 2... 3!

WINNER: Chris Jericho. Jericho is now the #1 Contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. We recap the end of the match and go to commercial.

Back to the show, Santino Marella and WWE Women's Champion Beth Phoenix are in the ring. Marella has a mic in his hand and says, "As far as I'm considered, I am the greatest Intercontinental Champions of all times! So as for me, being left out of the WWE Intercontinental DVD, that's a mistake! And for me, being left out of the WWE Intercontinental Tournament, that's an even bigger mistake! But, for the person who wrestle me tonight, that is the biggest mistake of all!" Marella says he's ready to introduce his backup, his "Roman Centurions" (his biceps) to that man.

Santino Marella vs. Goldust

YES! Goldust returns! They locks up, and Marela gets skeeved out that WWE's most famous cross-dresser even touched him! Goldust rubs his nipples and then blows Marella a kiss, skeeving him out even more! He then goes over and blows a kiss to Phoenix, who just about throws up! Marella gets pissed, but Goldust kicks him in the midsection, covers, two count. Goldust with a reverse chinlock, Marella escapes, nails Goldust wiht some big rights, puts him in the corner, referee breaks it up. Marella whips Goldust off the ropes, ducks down, Goldust with a slide-under uppercut and an atomic drop, followed by a swinging neckbreaker that he calls "The Golden Touch" for the win!

WINNER: Goldust. "The bizarre one is back!" proclaims Michael Cole as Beth Phoenix drags Marella out of the ring and comforts him, then tries to lug his big ass up. Goldust leans over the ropes and blows some more kisses. Off to another break.

The Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe "WWE Rewind" is Mike Knox attacking Kofi Kingston and the injured Evan Bourne backstage at Raw last week. This will probably lead into the official announcement that Evan Bourne will be out four months after Knox took Bourne's crutch and nailed him in the bootcast with it.

We come back with a Bret Hart promo? NO! It's a Charlie Haas as Bret "Hitman" Haas! Charlie is putting over WWE Mobile with clips of him getting beat up by Vladimir Kozlov, a play on the AT&T moblie commercials. We then go backstage and see a disgusted Randy Orton walking past Cody Rhodes & Manu, with big-ass grins on their faces.

WWE Intercontinental Championship #1 Contender Tournament:
WWE World Tag Team Champion CM Punk vs. Gene Snitsky

WWE Intercontinental Champion William Regal and Laylay London join us at ringside for commentary. We square off, Snitsky takes an armbar from Punk, Snitsky shoves him off into the ropes, hits him with a side slam, cover and Punk immediately kicks out. Snitsky kicks Punk in the ribs, elbow drop to the back, a second one, rolls him over, cover, two count. Snitsky argues with Chiota over the count. Punk stands up, kicks Snitsky in the legs, tries to whip him, Snitsky reverses it, throws him in the corner, charges, Punk puts a boot up. Punk tries to leap off the turnbuckle, Snitsky catches him in a giant bearhug in the middle of the ring.

Punk breaks the hold with a clap behind the ears, throws a few punches, bounces off the ropes, Snitsky takes him down with a big boot to the face and then wipes his face off. Snitsky with a few more kicks to the ribs, bounces off the ropes, big leg drop to the back of Punk's head, covers, two count. Snitsky stomps on Punk a few more times, picks him back up and re-applies the bear hug. Punk tries to break it with elbows, but Snitsky drops Punk to the mat instead. Snitsky bounces off the ropes for an elbow drop, Punk rolls out of the way, lays in some kicks, the paintbrush slaps, the spinning backfist that Snitsky ducks, but Punk catches him with the back brain kick. Punk with a dropkick of fthe top turnbuckle, cover, two count. Snitsky is whipped into the corner, Punk hits the high knee, tries for the bulldog but gets shoved off, turns around and charges, Snitsky kicks him in the face, then re-applies the bearhug.

Punk lays in a few elbows to the face, finally breaks the hold, and Snitsky just clotheslines him. Snitsky sets up for the Pump Handle Slam, Punk rolls through over the shoulders, catches Snistky from behind, hits the Go To Sleep, 1-2-3 that's it.

WINNER: CM Punk. Punk advances in the tournament. Regal politely applauds Punk on the outside, Punk comes over to the ropes and talks some smack, which turns Regals' heartfelt applaud into a mockery. Punk steps through the ropes, Regal takes off his headset... but NO! Nothing happening!

Why? Because we go backstage to have Todd Grisham interview Rey Mysterio asking about Mysterio taking on Mike "the Miz" Mizain for their shot at the Intercontinental Title. Mysterio starts babbling about knowing the history of the Intercontinental Championship and how he's going to be on that list of champions next. Mysterio's promo gets cut off as Mike Knox enters the frame, Grisham takes off like a bitch, and Knox stares down the edge of his chin at Mysterio, who is trying to move Knox's ballsack aside so he can stare him back in the face. Off to commercial.

Tomorrow night on ECW (it says "Live Tuesday!" but the spoilers already say it was recorded just before Raw tonight!) Jack Swagger faces Tommy Dreamer in an Extreme Rules match. We then cut to a promo with D-Generation X, Shawn Michaels and WWE Champion Triple H wearing tons of D-X gear, suggesting items to purchase for Christmas gifts from WWEShopZone.com! Kelly Kelly walks in wearing a D-X jersey, they babble, Michaels shows off the new SmackDown vs. Raw 2009 video game, showing it upside down, intentionally mis-pronouncing all the gaming platforms, Kelly Kelly helps him and Michaels mockingly gets pissed off, tells her to leave and that he wants his jersey back! Kelly throws it to him off-stage, Shawn blushes and hides his eyes, Triple H stares wide-eyed and proclaims "JINGLE BELLS!"

WWE Women's Champion Beth Phoenix, Jillian Hall & Katie Lea Burchill vs. Mickie James, Candice Michelle & Melina Perez

The WWE Raw Diva heels come out first, Phoenix takes the mic and reminds the fan that she was the sole survivor in the Raw vs. SmackDown Diva's match last night. Jillian Hall interrupts and says she's just too excited that the Slammy's are going to return and she's got a special song she's going to sign for it! Hall starts to screech, Burchill starts to dance, and Phoenix comes over and tells Burchill to knock that shit off and stop encouraging Hall! We take a commercial, coming back we get separate introductions for Mickie James and Candice Michelle, who gets the graphics introduction for Melina Perez! OOPS! "I think we spoiled the surprise!" blurts Lawler! And, indeed! Melina Perez makes her debut... and WOW still looking hot as ever with the split-leg ring entrance! Phoenix, Hall and Burchill all give her the evil stink eye.

Michelle and Hall square off first, Candice with a wristlock, Hall rolls through it, leg sweep, cover for a two count. Michelle with a dropkick of fthe ropes, cover on Hall, two count. Hall whips Michelle into the corner, charges, Michelle with a knee to the head, Burchill gets in the ring, James gets in the ring to cut her off, Phoenix runs over to knock the brains out of Michelle's head. Hall drives Michelle into the corner, backs off to distracts the ref allowing Burchill and Phoenix beat her up, James gets in the ring to protest. Phoenix tags in, body slam on Michelle, cover for a two count. Phoenix picks up Michelle, goes for a backbreaker over the knee, hangs on for a second one, and a third, then bridging Michelle over her knee. Michelle pulls the Rey Mysterio and knees Phoenix in the head to break it, but Phoenix hits her with an elbow straight in the gut and mounts her for some ground 'n pound, then arrogantly scrapes her boot across her face.

Phoenix tries to pick up Michelle, but Michelle kicks her in the face, mule kick that separates them, Hall goes for a quick tag, Michelle makes a tag, and it's Melina vs. Burchill. Melina runs over and clears Phoenix and Hall off the apron, turns around and does a Matrix-style duck of Burchill's clothesline, drills her with a double-palm thrust into the stomach, jumps on her back, nails her with a Canadian Destroyer! She rolls right off as Jillian Hall runs in, but the referee keeps counting the pin! Melina takes out Hall with a kick, James flies in with a Thesz Press off of the top turnbuckle onto Beth Phoenix as she runs in, they powder out. Melina finishes off Burchill with the split-leg drop.

WINNERS: Mickie James, Candice Michelle & Melina Perez. We play the highlights real quick, then go backstage as Chris Jericho, dressed in his suit, talks to Stephanie McMahon in the hallway, says they have to talk business, and go back into her office.

Chris Jericho comes out into the ring with a mic and says that he bet that everybody thought that things are going to be different now that Cena has defeated Jericho for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Cena says that the same things were said all summer long as he retained the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, and three weeks from now John Cena will know it as well. John Cena is outside amongs the fans, appears on the TitanTron and tells Jericho to just stop, that he's lost his mind and thinks he's above everybody else. The fans, 99% of them little kids, are starting up a "Ce-na! Ce-na! Ce-na!" chant as he tells Jericho that the fans are not going to put up with a stuck-up, arrogant man telling the fans that they stuck every week.

Cena says that Jericho said last week he wants to be a one-man welcome wagon for Cena's return. "Well if you welcome me, then you welcome all of us, so let's make that happen now!" Cena and Bike Chain Gang bum-rush the arena, setp through the curtains and into the main level of the show. Cena steps over the barrier into the ring, steps in the ring and says to stop the music. Cena says that all the fans out there have one thing in common, they care about the WWE, and they spend their hard-earned money on WWE tickets so they can boo, cheer and get rowdy. "Why, Chris Jericho? Because they have PASSION! I look at these fine people and you know all that they ask in return? They ask that when we step in this very ring, we share that passion. We enjoy the fact that they like to host their signs up high, that they want to get a little bit rowdy when the TV cameras are turned on, and that we respect that fact that without all of these people NONE of this exists! You got me all wrong, Chris Jericho, I'm not out here to start a new era, hell I don't even know how many championships I've won or lost. When I step through these ropes I come in to respect the #1 asset that the WWE has, (points to the fans) THESE GUYS!"

"So you agree with John Cena?" retorts Jericho, "I don't give a damn what you people think. I want you to hear the list of guys that I've defeated!" Cena cuts him off, says that he's tired of the lists. "The difference between you and me is that you talk business... " Cena strips off his shirt and hat, "but I mean business!" Cena gets right in Jericho's face, Jericho walks off, steps on the apron, shakes his head no, holds up three fingers to represent the three weeks until their match at Armageddon. Cena says, "That's alright, I knew you'd do that. If you want to walk, walk, I'll fight you at Armageddon, that's for sure. Before you leave I want to clear the air between you and me. Last night at Armageddon we had one hell of a match, and I don't want anybody to doubt the abilities of Chris Jericho in the ring. But the part where we don't see eye to eye is that you come out here every week to proclaim that you need to save this place from the thing is has become, but I enjoy this place! You come out here each and every week and tell these people that they are not good enough. You claim you are an honest man, Chris, but you've been lying to yourself this whole time, and I'll tell you why -this right here." Cena holds up the WWE Championship. "This WWE Championship and me holding this title proves that we do not need changing, we do not need saving. This proves that. THE. CHAMP. IS. HERE!"

Jericho steps back into the ring, "I'll tell you this John Cena, the champ is not HERE," points to Cena, "the champis HERE!", and points to himself. Cena looks away to scoff, Jericho shoves Cena and says, "Look at me when I talk to you, boy! I'm going to beat you at Armageddon, Cena, and I'm going to prove that you're nothing but a flash in the pan, and you know what you're going to do about it? You 're going to do NOTHING, because you are nothing more than a worm, you are nothing more than a coward of a man..."

And with that, Cena nails Jericho in the face, mounts him,s lams him, nails him with a trio of elbow drops, picks him up by his pants and throws him on his ass! Cena shakes his head no, and goes outside, grabs Jericho by the hair, and rams him face-first into the announcer's table! Cena then whips him into the barrier, and into the steel ringsteps, and Jericho gos down, holding his left shoulder! Cena gets in the ring, looks in the camera, holds up his finger, "No, I'm not done yet!" Cena goes outside and picks up the steel ringsteps and rams Jericho in the face with them! Jericho falls over the ring barrier, Cena throws the steps over his head and screams! Cena drags Jericho's lifeless body back into the ring! Jericho staggers up and Cena nails him with a clothesline! Cena looks into the camera and says, "One more!" Cena picks up Jericho in the full nelson, swings him around and throws him down! Cena has an almost disgusted look on his face as he slaps on the STF on Jericho, and Jericho taps! His face turns red, he chokes, takes one last gasp of air and passes out! Cena picks up the title and holds it over his head as the fans chant for him! The house blows off the roof as Cena's music hits.

Holy shit. THE. CHAMP. IS. BACK. I now have to take back all my words I said last night. WWE has tapped right into the hearts and souls of its audience and delivered a VERY satisfying show! We fade out for the night, see ya and come back tomorrow for Stevie J's ECW Recap!
