HHH was the first to come out and accuse Dibiasi for stealing his TV title. HHH said that he wanted a rematch right here and now. Dibiase came down and said that HHH was done. If he wants another title shot, he has to earn it. He demanded a shot but Ted was quick to point out that there are others deserving of title shots. If HHH wants another shot, he has to take on John Cena. In a quick 8 minutes, HHH gets the win after hitting Cena with a knee to the face.
A mini tournament was held to fill in the vacant spots for the US, TV and Cruiserweight shots. Those participating were John Cena (even though he just wrestled), Jeff Jarrett, Abyss, John Morrison, Elijah Burke, Rhyno, MVP and Matt Hardy.
Round one
Rhyno was first to win over Abyss after hitting the GORE.
John Morrison defeated Jeff Jarrett with a shooting star press.
Matt Hardy defeats Elijah Burke.
John Cena defeats MVP.
Round 2
John Morrison defeats Rhyno
John Cena defeats Matt Hardy
Round 3
John Cena defeats John Morrison
Cena becomes the #10 contender for the US title; John Morrson is in line for the TV title. Rhyno and Matt Hardy then duked it out to see who gets a shot at the cruiserweight title. Matt Hardy defeats Rhyno to get the final shot at the CW title.
Over in the HWF, Donnie B challenged Goldust for his title shot. In two minutes, Goldy is counted out and Donnie B is now next in line for a shot at the X-division title.
The Great Khali was next out challenging AJ Styles for his shot at the IC title. In 8 minutes, Khali gets the win via submission by the Relentless Backbreaker. Khali is now next in line.
Chris Jericho is out complaining about not getting any title shots. He in then followed out by Samoa Joe. Both men run their mouths saying they should be getting world title shots. IC Champ Fit Finley comes out and says that these two can fight it out and he would take on the winner putting his world title shot on the line. Samoa Joe ends up getting the win with a Rear Naked Choke submission. Finley comes down and nails Joe in the head with the Shillelagh. He then starts to tear into Joe and Joe just takes it. Finally, Joe tosses Finley to the outside of the ring and handcuffs him to the ringside barrier. Joe rolls back in as the ref counts to 10. Joe wins Finley’s spot in the world title shot.
Next out came the Tag Team Champs MW3 and the Super Warrior. They were accompanied by their special ref “Ravishing Randy” Mulkey. Mulkey told the fans that the next team was picked who would get the next title shot. The champs waited in anticipation (no, not really) and it was declared that Cryme Tyme was getting the next shot. The champs burst out laughing and didn’t stop until the challengers made their way to ringside. Cryme Tyme said that they would “steal” the belts and that there was nothing that could be done about it. Super Warrior then asked “How’s this for ‘Steel’?” and nailed both challengers with the steel chair. All three stood laughing while MW3 went to spit on them. Ravishing Randy kicked JTG for good measure before they all left.
The Dudleys then came out questioning why they weren’t getting the next title shot. William Regal came out and said he wondered the same thing but then there is another team equally deserving of a title shot: the team of Morrison and Hardy. Regal said that whomever won this next contest would get the title shot after Cryme Tyme.
This was by far the shortest match in a long time. It barely went 3 minutes. After getting nailed by the Starship Pain, Bubba tagged out to Devon. Devon takes an elbow shot before tagging back out to a confused Bubba. Bubba gets tossed out of the ring by John Morrison and then Hardy goes to the top rope and launches a nasty fist drop. Devon is taken out the other side of the ring. Bubba does not make it back in and the Dudley’s lose this one by countout. Hardy and Morrison are next in line.
CM Punk and Sting are out next complaining that they have never received their rematch. Regal comes back out and tells the Dudleys if they want a shot at redemption, they could take on this new team. The winner would get a shot at the tag team belts. Now this was the Dudleys we know and love. CM Punk was basically left to fight the Dudleys himself after MW3 and the Super Warrior came out and attacked Sting. Sting was dragged to the back and never surfaced. Punk did all he could but in the end was no match for the brute strength of the Dudleys.
Just before the show ended, HHH came out again. This time he was challenging the Negronomicon for his TV title shot as he wanted back at Dibiasi as soon as possible. Negronomicon stated that if HHH was so confident he was going to win, then N wanted HHH’s world title shot on the line. HHH agreed.
Negronomicon held his own against the Game. HHH would try to cut any corners he could to get the win but N just wouldn’t allow it. The end started around the 18 min mark when N got tossed out of the ring. He looked like he got hurt going over the top rope. HHH went out to help him back in. N nailed an Arm whip of Doom and HHH went sailing right into the ringpost. N rolled back into the ring to break the count and then retrieved HHH. N then nailed a snap suplex and at the 20 minute mark, he gets the pin, the win and the World title shot.
That is all for now. Stay tuned for more.
