The (pre-recorded) WWE Raw Recap - Hit F5 for the Latest Updates
The spoilers have been out for a week, but now you'll get to see what went down... or not, if you're reading the recap instead of watching it live ... er, pre-recorded on USA Network. Just join Killa Kev & the AngryMarks friends in the AngryMarks.com/chat room and talk about it!
Tonight former champs face each other down, Triple H and John Cena square off for the right to face WWE Champion Randy Orton at the Night of Champions PPV. But first off, tonight's guest host "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase comes out for his appearance... and behind him is his son, Ted DiBiase, Jr. and partner Cody Rhodes. The fans are excited to see the former Intercontinental and World Tag Team champion come out with his most coveted belt, The Million Dollar Championship! Hey, where's Virgil?
Mr. DiBiase takes a mic as he steps into the ring. "Well as Donald Trump and Mr. McMahon proved to each other, every man has his price! So when I heard that there was an opportunity for guest hosts to come out every week, I wrote a check! That means tonight Raw is ran by the Million Dollar Man! HAHAH! So what does that mean? Well tonight it gives me a forum to remind your people of what greatness looks like! Before you are two of the most talented WWE superstars that you will ever see in your life! Cody Rhodes... and my son, Ted DiBiase."
The fans are not happy with this proclamation.
"Now I've been informed that there will be no title defenses before Night of Champions on WWE Raw. But that doesn't mean I can't have a little fun. At night of Champions, the new tag team champions, Edge and Chris Jericho, they will go up against, and face, and be defeated by... Legacy! That's official, and you can take it to the bank! But as for tonight... well... Cody Rhodes, when Mark Henry beat Randy Orton in a 3-on-1 match, how did it make you feel?"
Rhodes says, "Well, I felt mad! I couldn't be the disrespect that Henry showed Randy!" DiBiase replies, "Do you think that Mark Henry should be punished?" "Yeah!" exclaims Rhodes. "Well great! Tonight Mark Henry will be taught a lesson when Mark Henry faces... YOU! Cody Rhodes! The son of the American Dream versus the World's Strongest Man!"
Teddy speaks up, "Dad! What are you doing? You can't do that!" Mr. DiBiase replies, "Son, I'm making an impact! Oh, and I'm sorry I didn't get a chance to tell you this, but what the heck, we're on national television, we'll make it now!" Teddy replies, "Tell me what?"
"Look, son...," replies the elder DiBiase, "I know that you told Randy off at the Bash, and I know that later you made amends. But I also know that I saw a look in your eye that night, a look of acknowledgment, acknowledging something that you already know and everybody else already knows, that Randy Orton is just holding you down. Randy Orton knows that you are a more talented and gifted athlete. Randy Orton is just using you, son! So tonight you're going to have a math. Now it's not going to be a title match, but it's not about the title... you see, son, this match is going to make a statement. It's going to open eyes. It's going to change careers.
"It's going to be Randy Orton versus Ted DiBiase!"
Teddy stutters, "Dad, you cannot do this! I cannot face him..." but Mr. DiBiase continues, "Not only are you going to face him, son, you're going to beat him! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
The fans explode... - Cody and Teddy exchange words, not believing what just happened. Before they can clear the ring, though, the WWE Unified Tag Team Champions, Edge & Chris Jericho, come down to the ring, dressed to fight and with confident looks on their faces! The champions step into the ring and go nose-to-nose with Legacy as we go to break.
WWE Unified Tag Team Champions Edge & Chris Jericho vs. Carlito & Primo Colon (non-title match)
We start out with Carlito and Edge, Carlito is put into a wristlock, whipped off the ropes, Carlito kicks Edge in the face as he ducks down for the backdrop, Carlito covers, two count. Edge kicks Carlito in the midsection, tags in Jericho. Jericho whips Carlito off the ropes and nails him with a reverse elbow, then antagonizes Primo. Jericho with a belly-to-back suplex on Carlito followed by a kick to the face as he bounces off the ropes, smirk in-tack. Edge tags in and slaps Carlito around a little. Carlito fires back with punches to the midsection and face, Edge responds with a drop toe hold and an elbow to the small of the back, covers and gets a two count. Edge pulls Carlito up, punches him in the face and then stomps him down into the corner. Referee steps in to stop it, and Jericho lets Carlito eat some "fillet of sole" himself. Jericho tags in, snap mare into a sleeper hold. Carlito gets to his feet, punches his way out, elbow to the face, bounce off the ropes and hits the reverse springboard elbow to Jericho, but both men go down.
Hot tags made on both sides, Primo fires with a corkscrew elbow on Edge and a pair of dropkicks to Edge and then Jericho, dropping him off the apron. Carlito with the headscissor takeover, goes to the apron, slingshots in with a cross-body lateral press, cover, two count. Edge whips Primo into the ropes, Primo holds on, elbows Edge in the face as he charges, tries to springboard off the ropes and Edge cuts him down, tying his arms up in the ropes. Edge bounces off the ropes to try to nail Primo, Carlito runs over and frees Primo, Primo moves out of the way, Edge spears Carlito off the apron. Carlito scrambles into the ring to try to get Edge, referee runs over to break that up, Jericho runs in and hits the Codebreaker on Primo, stumbles to his feet and gets creamed by the Spear from Edge, 1-2-3.
WINNERS: Edge & Chris Jericho. Both men are upset about what happened, but Carlito is just a little more upset! He grabs Primo by the pants, throws him shoulder-first into the ringpost, throws him through the ropes to the floor, then just beats the hell out of him, throwing him over the announcer's table and walking off. Carlito walks off to the back in disgust. Primo looks pretty banged up as the referees check on him.
Backstage, Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase, Jr. are talking. Cody says, "Are you gonna do it, man?" DiBiase replies, "I don't have a choice..." "What are you going to do about this?" says Randy Orton as he walks into the room. DiBiase says "Randy, I don't know. My dad is stubborn, he won't budge..."
"You losing to me on television won't accomplish anything."
"Me, losing to you? You don't think I can beat you?"
Orton tries to cool DiBiase off, "Let's not make this complicated, I am the WWE Champion and I'm going to beat you. So go tell your father, thanks but no thanks..."
A visibly upset Ted DiBiase, Jr. sternly replies, "No, you're not my father. And quite frankly my father was a hell of a lot better than your father! I'm going to face you... and I'm going to beat you! " DiBiase storms out of the room, we go to break, we come back and we're introduced to the new members of the Raw cast: Gail Kim, Alicia Fox, Mark Henry, Jack Swagger and Evan Bourne.
WWE Divas Champion Maryse Oulet & Alicia Fox vs. Mickie James & Gail Kim
So, I'm trying to think... with Kim & James tagging together, does that make them the first ex-TNA employees to team together in WWE? Of course, I'm sitting here thinking, "Three of these things belong together..." Alicia Fox is the only wrestler here who hasn't held WWE gold (but has been a gold digger!)
We start out with James and Oulet, they tussle around a little, James is planted on the mat, Maryse tags Fox in, James whips her around, elbow to the face, a big punch in the face to Maryse to knock her off the apron, cover on Fox for a two count. Kim tags in, Fox kicks her in the midsection, whips her into the corner, charges, Kim blocks with an elbow, a pair of headscissor takeovers, puts Fox in the corner, charges with a cannonball, Fox backdrops her over the ropes, Kim holds on, shoulder block into Fox, slingshots into the ring with a cross body block. Kim charges Fox in the corner, Fox moves out of the way, Kim uses it to springboard cross body block onto Fox, cover, two count.
Fox throws Kim into the corner, James runs over to assist, drawing the ref's attention. Maryse reaches through the ropes to kick Kim in the head, Fox covers, two count. Maryse tags in, throws Kim into the corner, charges, Kim moves out of the way and Maryse injures her knee. Fox tries to crawl for a tag, Oulet recovers, cuts off Kim's tag by knocking James off the apron with a sucker punch. But as Oulet returns to Kim, Kim grabs an arm, puts her boot in Oulet's face, drops down and jacks her jaw! Kim covers... 1... 2... 3!
WINNER: Mickie James & Gail Kim! Wow, that was unexpected! Nice match!
Cody Rhodes interrupts Ted DiBiase as he's getting his nails done. Rhodes stumbles over his words as he tries to kiss DiBiase's ass, then comes up with a wad of cash. DiBiase snatches the cash out of his hands and says, "I understand what you want... by the way, this isn't enough, but I'll take it anyhow! You want out of your match with Mark Henry!" Rhodes stutters, "I just think it would be better if I focused on the WWE Unified Tag Team Championship match at Night of Champions." DiBiase then talks up Rhodes about what it means to be in Legacy, and how it's all about family, and that Rhodes is a third-generation wrestler and blood is thicker than water. He reminds Rhodes who is father is... then cuts him down.
"I despise father! Why wold the Million Dollar Man ever want to have anything to do with a common man? And that fat, blond-haired buffoon is in the WWE Hall of Fame and I'm not! So you're going to face Mark Henry tonight, now get out of my office, before I put you in yellow polka dots just like your old man!"
LOL... I called this last week, and it's funny as hell! Thanks, Ted! Let's take a break! This week's "WWE Slam of the Week" sponsored by AutoZone is Mark Henry putting the beat-down on Randy Orton last week.
Cody Rhodes vs. "the World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry
Wow, Henry gets a bunch of cheers coming out to face Rhodes! But he doesn't look any happier than previously, he looks a a mean, hungry dog staring down a piece of meat! Rhodes tries to lock up, Henry just bumps him off his chest, then lays in some knees to the chest, sending the greenhorn into the corner, gasping for breath. Rhodes is whipped to the opposite corner, Henry charges, Rhodes puts his foot up to stop it. Rhodes tries to follow up with a cross-body block from the middle turnbuckle, but Henry just catches him and plants him with the World's Strongest Slam. Rhodes rolls out of the ring quickly and staggers back up the ramp, unwilling to continue to compete as the referee counts him out.
WINNER: Mark Henry. Well, I don't blame creative here, having Henry legitimately squash Rhodes just doesn't do anything for either man. We go back to watch John Cena shadow box as we go to commercial. Thursday night on ECW, Christian Cage vs. Vladimir Kozlov for #1 Contender for the ECW Championship at Night of Champions. Remember, ECW is on at a special time, 7pm ET!
WWE Champion Randy Orton vs. Ted DiBiase, Jr. (non-title match)
Orton is introduced first, and he doesn't look happy to be in this match at all. AT ALL, I tell you. DiBiase is introduced next, he gets a smattering of cheers. DiBiase doesn't look very happy either, but I think he's more filled with mixed emotions, and Michael Cole reminds us of the dissension that exists between these two stable mates.
We lock up, Orton takes a side headlock into a takeover, squeezing DiBiase's head like it's a pimple. DiBiase counters with a headscissor, Orton breaks and we go into a Mexican standoff. We lock up again, Orton charges DiBiase into the ropes, takes his time breaking, then piefaces DiBiase and asks, "WHY? WHY?" DiBiase counters with a punch to the face, armdrag, dropkick and Orton rolls out of the ring. DiBiase follows up with a dropkick under the bottom rope, hitting Orton in the hips, Orton goes down and we take a commercial break!
Orton has taken control of the match as we return to action, hitting DiBiase with the Orton Stomp. DiBiase rolls out of the way of the follow-up kneedrops, tries to get Orton into a small package for a pin attempt, but it's no good. Orton hangs up DiBiase between the ropes and kicks him in the chest. Grabbing DiBiase in a front face lock, he says, "I didn't want to have to do this, Ted!" as he drags DiBiase through the ropes, hangs his feet over the ropes, and hits the DDT. Orton covers 1... 2... DiBiase kicks out! Orton tries again, DiBiase again kicks out. Orton mounts Dibiase for some punches then rakes his knee over DiBiase's face. Orton takes his time bouncing off the ropes and delivering the high knee drop to the face. Orton again covers, grinding his forearm into DiBiase's face, but the protege kicks out.
Orton applies a side headlock on DiBiase's head again, DiBiase struggles as the fans cheer for him. DiBiase gets to his feet, breaks out of the headlock and executes a belly-to-back suplex on Orton to break the hold. DiBiase crawls up in the corner, Orton charges, DiBiase with a reverse elbow, then hits a elbow smash off the middle turnbuckle, covers Orton but only gets a two count. DiBiase stands up Orton and delivers some punches tries to whip him off the ropes, but Orton blocks it, reverses DiBiase and hits the backbreaker over the side of his own body. Orton sets up for the RKO as DiBiase struggles to his feet, goes for it, DiBiase counters with a backslide, cover, 1... 2... kickout! Orton bounces off the ropes, DiBiase catches him with a scoop slam, cover, two count and a kickout from Orton.
DiBiase picks up Orton, Orton punches him in the midsection, tries to whip him off the ropes, DiBiase reverses and goes for the Dream Street, but Orton wiggles, flips DiBiase over his shoulder, then snaps off the RKO, covers DiBiase for the pin.
WINNER: Randy Orton. Not a bad match at all, Orton barely escapes. Orton steps out of the ring, tips his head towards DiBiase, but DiBiase just seethes at his loss. Backstage Josh Matthews asks Triple H about his match tonight. Triple H says that this is epic, but he doesn't care who he has to go through to get what he wants. "All bets are off!"
The VIP Lounge w/ Montel Vontaveous Porter
Before the segment we flash back to 8 days ago at the BET Music Awards where Montel Vontaveous Porter appeared with his girlfriend, The View's Sherri Shepard. What can you say, he likes his girls thick, he's a MAN! Or maybe it's the other way around? Arsenio Hall says that its the guy who has to live up to the expectations of Sherri Shepard, and that the only other person in WWE who could possibly do that MIGHT be The Big Show! We go to the ring!
Porter takes to the mic as we return to Raw. "Once again MVP is in the ring again, which can only mean one thing - big things poppin', little things stoppin', so sit back relax and enjoy the view as we open the VIP Lounge! Now this week Raw is hosted by The Million Dollar Man, Ted DiBiase. But last week a major trade was made by my former boss, Donald Trump, a man MUCH MUCH richer than the Million Dollar Man. That trade resulted in bringing over my next guest... 'The All-American American' Jack Swagger!"
Swagger walks out, combs back his hair and is admitted into the lounge by ringside security. Fans just don't care for him. Jerry Lawler doesn't care for his hair. He does kinda look more like Gary Busey than ever before! (LOL). Porter welcomes Swagger into the Lounge, invites him to sit down, Swagger declines.
Porter says, "The reason I have you in my VIP Lounge tonight because I want to ask you what it felt like to debut as a WWE Superstar... " Swagger cuts him off and starts to speak, but MVP doesn't let him finish. "Jack, I realize that you're DROOLING to get an answer out, but this is my VIP lounge and I wasn't done asking my question. What I was going to say was how did it feel to debut as a WWE Superstar, only to present yourself as a fraud by refusing to fight Randy Orton?"
Swagger responds, "First of all I'm a two time, two time All-American. I went to the University of Oklahoma. Do you know what that means?" Porter replies, "It means you couldn't get into a better school?" Swagger smirks and continues, "It means I am a Division I NCAA athlete. But you went to Florida State, right? But, not the school... you're a fraud! You're trying to pass yourself off as an MVP but the only thing you've ever headed up was a prison basketball league!"
Porter hits back, "You think that hurts me? I don't hide behind my past. When I was young I ran the streets, I got caught up in the game, I made some bad decisions and made some mistakes. But I did my time ,and now I'm a WWE superstar and I use my celebrity status to teach others not to make the mistakes that I did!" Swagger cuts him off, "You're not a man stop making excuses!" Porter continues, "Jack it's obvious that Division I school you went to they didn't teach you the difference between an excuse and an explanation. Here's another difference between you and me. Unlike me you didn't go to prison, and that's a good thing. But there's another huge difference." MVP strips off his shirt and his gold and finishes his thoughts. "Unlike you, I have NEVER been afraid of a fight!"
MVP stares Swagger down. Swagger stares down at MVP as the fans chant for Porter. Swagger backs off a few steps. "You want to fight me? I don't fight people below me! And especially I don't fight criminals!"Swagger steps out of the ring.
Porter finishes off the segment by saying, "You know what's obvious to all of us? That since you've been here on Raw, you don't fight AT ALL! And if you EVER feel like being a man, and if you want to fight me, you can find me right here int his VIP Lounge... STRAIGHT UP BALLIN'!"
We go backstage as "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase is talking with his son. "Great job out there, and I know you didn't win the match, but one day I know you're going to be a WWE champion!" Teddy shoots back at his dad, "You set me up to fail! You set me up to lose! This is still all about you, you're afraid of me. You came here to put yourself over! This is my time, this is my spotlight!" MDM says, "It's not like that at all, son... " but he's not hearing it. Teddy slaps the shit out of his dad and walks off. DiBiase the Elder holds his cheek, takes off his glasses and grimaces, trying to choke back a tear. Ted Jr. is now playing the role of the Prodigal Son.
WWE United States Champion Kofi Kingston vs. Evan Bourne (non-title match)
This week's WWE Rewind is last week's match where Kingston defeated Big Show, but Big Show got his revenge by beating the hell out of Kingston after the match. Wow, I think my hands just cramped up at the mention of Bourne and Kingston squaring off!
Bourne starts with a hammer lock into an armbar back into a hammer lock into a side headlock. Kingston shoots him off the ropes, leapfrogs over, tries again, Bourne waits it out, rolls up Kingston for a pin attempt, Kingston counters with his own pin attempt, Bourne with a backslide, Kingston gets out, Bourne goes for a dropkick, Kingston steps back to miss it, grabs a leg in mid-air and locks in a single-leg Boston Crab on Bourne! Bourne struggles for the ropes and reaches them, necessitating a break. Kingston backs off, waiting for Bourne to get up.
We lock up again, Bourne with a side headlock takeover, Kingston reverses with a headscissor, Bourne breaks, but Kingston counters with the side headlock takeover. Bourne with the headscissors, Kingston breaks out with a jack knife, Bourne catches him, stands him up, tries for a backslide, Kingston fights him, Bourne turns around and punches Kingston in the face, whips him into the corner, Kingston rebounds off the corner with a cross body block on Bourne, covers, two count. Kingston with a standing dropkick that puts him in the corner, follows up with a splash, whip to the other corner, charges, Bourne leaps up as Kingston goes for the plash and meets him with a knee! Bourne leaps up to the top turnbuckle and goes for Air Bourne... CONNECTS with the Shooting Star Pres, covers and gets the pin!
WINNER: Evan Bourne. Bourne and Kingston shake hands after the match, but they are interrupted by The Big Show. Bourne asks Kingston if he wants some backup, but Kingston tells him to step out of the way. Big Show steps over the ropes and kicks Kingston in the midsection, headbutts Kingston down. Bourne tries to leap onto Big Show's back but is swatted away. Big Show throws Kingston down to the mat and tries to stomp on him, but Bourne comes back and kicks Big Show in the back, then tries to kick the legs out of him. Big Show picks up Bourne and throws him across the ring. Kingston tries to go after Big Show's legs as well, but Big Show stomps him down. Bourne gets back to his feet, but goes right back down as Bourne is cut in half with a Spear! Big Show picks up Kingston and starts to destroy his ribcage with those right hand punches, and then finishes off Kingston with the Camel Clutch, leaving him in the ring for dead.
Backstage after a commercial, Josh Matthews asks John Cena about Triple H's comments earlier. Cena confirms "all bets are off" and says that WWE Raw is WrestleMania tonight according to the WWE Universe, two of the greatest battling for a slot for the WWE Championship. However, if Triple H thinks he is going to cakewalk through him to get to Randy Orton and continue his personal feud, he won't.
Night of Champions WWE Championship #1 Contender Match: Triple H vs. John Cena
Triple H is introduced first, we take a commercial break and then get John Cena's introduction. The two men stare down nose-to-beak... Triple H takes a look around the arena... then Cena... then back to each other... are they going to kiss? No, they back off and prepare to fight!
We lock up collar-and-elbow tie-up, Cena with the side headlock takeover first, Triple H with the headscissor escape and we're already at a standoff. Fans start a "CE-NA! CE-NA!" chant first and the crowd's roar grows... a quieter "TRIP-PLE H! TRIP-PLE H!" chants starts up. Both men get face-to face again and Triple H starts talking to Cena, Both men step back and we lock up, Cena again with a side headlock takeover, HHH again with the headscissor escape, but this time he follows up with big right hands.

Triple H with a front face lock into a snap suplex, Cena holds his back in pain as Triple H takes his time to measure out an elbow to the back. He pulls Cena up to his feet, shoves him front-first into the ropes and nails him in the lower back with a forearm shot. Cena is drilled between the eyes a few times, then Triple H with the high kneedrop to the forehead, cover, hooks the leg, Cena kicks out at two.
Cena is pulled back up, more punches to the head that send him to the corner. Cena fires back with a big right, but Triple H cuts him down with a haymaker.

WINNER: NO CONTEST. NOOO!!!! FUCKING BULLSHIT! Lillian Garcia starts to announce the results, but Randy Orton comes out and interrupts her. "Lillian, Lillian, I got this... this match is a double disqualification, which means there is no winner, which means I won't be facing EITHER of you at Night of Champions..."
"HAHAHAH! MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY!" interrupts Orton's ranting and "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase interrupts this, comes out and look at Orton, and says, "Randy, you say that neither one of these men won? I say that neither one of these men lost. Tonight my opinion carries more weight at yours, so here it is. At night of Champion you will face them both in a Triple Threat match! Randy Orton vs. Triple H vs. John Cena!"
WHAT BULLSHIT! Could not ONE of these men have sacrificed their ego and win/loss record to become a clear #1 contender? I hate this shit! And we'll discuss this and more tomorrow night on RING THE BELL at 11pm ET on BlogTalkRadio.com/ringthebell !
