WRESTLEMANIA
CONTINUES!!!
Pyro
goes off and the fans pop. Man, if today
and tomorrow meet or excel yesterday’s show, I think we may set some Guinness
Book records. GM’s Hulk Hogan and Master
Bull make their way to the ring. Larry
Morton is standing there waiting to interview them. Before it can begin, Rockstar Spud makes his
way to the ring. He takes the mic from
Larry. He goes on to explain why he
interfered in Kane’s match. Spud
explains that the title is designed for Cruiserweights, not dumb weights. He should have been on the PPV, NOT Roman
Reigns. He pauses as Roman Reigns rushes
the ring and Spud bails. Reigns says
Spud cost him his match. Roman says he
is challenging Spud for his spot in the X-Division lineup. GM Hulk Hogan takes the mic and says since
both Kurt and Bray retained, the match ‘HWF vs CSWA World Champion to see who
gets a shot at the Undisputed Heavyweight Title’ will not take place. Instead, Roman Reigns gets Rockstar Spud
tonight and is challenging Spud for the very title shot he himself was just
robbed of. That match is happening NOW,
brother.
The
first match of the night is Rockstar Spud vs Roman Reigns for his X-Division
title spot. Why Spud continues to bite
off more than he can chew; we’ll never know.
Reigns beat the snot out of Spud 6 minutes longer than he needed to (the
match was only 7 min in length). After
destroying Spud, Reigns nails a superman punch and knocks him out. Reigns makes the cover and gets the
1-2-3. X-Division champion Kane makes
his way out and mockingly claps for Reigns.
Kane asks why Reigns wants another shot when all he’ll do is lose. Reigns says that he is challenging Kane AGAIN
and NOW. Kane tries to back out but GM
Master Bull comes out and says…”We’ve got time.
Head to the ring.”
Our
second match is Kane vs Reigns II with the X-Division title on the
line…again. This time, however was much
different with Reigns dominating the champion.
Kane was just not ready for the onslaught Reigns brought to this
table. Reigns immediately began with a superman
punch and a 1 count and that is what gave Roman the confidence he needed. Kane tried for a Chokeslam from Hell but
Reigns was able to reverse it and hit some clubbing blows. Kane manages to connect with a CfH but
Reigns is up immediately and tosses Kane out of the ring. Kane re-enters the ring and as Roman charges
him, he gets sent out. He takes a bit
longer to recover. Roman nails a spear
but then gets sent out of the ring again.
He hits the steel steps and barely makes it back in before the 10
count. Reigns begins to ‘hulk up’ and
Kane sends him repeatedly back out of the ring.
Roman is quickly back in each time.
Kane shoves Reigns down but Roman pops up and nails a Spear. He makes the cover and the ref counts
1…2…3. Roman Reigns has just defeated
Kane to become the NEW X-Division Champion.
He celebrates at ringside with the fans and then leaves. (16 min)
Larry
Morton meets up with 1/3rd of the 6 man champions the Super
Warrior. SW says he is the future of
this sport and he and his teammates will successfully defend their titles and
show their dominance. The camera cuts
quickly to the left where someone is hiding in the shadows. We don’t get to see who it is.
We
head back to the ring for our next match which is the Women’s Battle Royal. All 16 women, including AJ Lee, Paige,
Southern Belle and the Undisputed Women’s Champion Ravishing Raquel all
participated. Raquel, Paige and Belle
all went out relatively early. AJ wasn’t
far behind. Everyone thought Awesome
Kong or Gail Kim were going to win this one but both got eliminated by someone
we didn’t expect…Spider Violet. Spider
had eliminated ½ of the Beautiful People (Angelina Love and Madison Rayne)
before assisting Gail in eliminating Kong.
It finally came down to Gail and Spider and Ms. Violet was on the top of
her game and sent the former Women’s champion flying. Spider Violet is the winner of the battle
royal and she will get her own ‘money in the bank’ briefcase and can cash it in
within 60 days for a title match.
Backstage,
Clarkus Kentus sees Brock Lesnar walking around and goes to interview him. Before he can get one word out, Brock glares
at Clarkus and our roving reporter high tails it out of there.
Larry
Morton is interviewing the Hardcore Champion Big Show. Show says he’ll deal with #ConanJ all in good
time for costing him the battle royal win.
Tomorrow though, it is about him vs Samoa Joe and he promises to show
Joe the meaning of hardcore.
It
is time for our next title match with Six Man Champions the Warriors taking on
Prestige Inc. Prestige Inc. (King Damian
Sandow, Magnus and ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild) with Undisputed Women’s
Champion Ravishing Raquel all head to the ring first. Next the champions (Super Warrior, Warrior of
Truth and the Scorpion Warrior) head out.
Both teams got an equal sized pop.
SW begins with hitting a warrior powerbomb on Reid and goes for the
quick cover but Reid kicks out. Truth
gets tagged in and Reid hits him with a Reid-bottom. He tags out to Magnus. After a little singles fighting, all of
Prestige hit the ring and triple team Truth.
Magnus remains behind and hits a slingshot elbow drop. He makes the cover but Truth kicks out at 2. All of a sudden, #ConanJ runs out with his
briefcase and smashes both the Scorpion Warrior and Super Warrior with it. #cj
then nails the Super Warrior with a piledriver on the exposed concrete. #cj yells at him that HE is the future of the
sport, not him. #ConanJ runs off through
the crowd with his dented briefcase.
Truth, looking for his teammates and doesn’t see them, turns and eats a
kick to the midsection and a DDT from Magnus.
Magnus makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3. Prestige Inc. have just won the match and are
the NEW 6 Man TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS. The
new champs celebrate before heading to the back. Sting and Truth were able to make it back on
their own but Super Warrior was taken out on a stretcher. (8 min)
Caped
Crusader is wandering around backstage and suddenly, the bat-signal flares up
on a wall in front of him. CC sadly
gazes upon it before walking away.
Up
next is the Desperados (the Stache and El Chango) taking on the Jones Boys
(#ConanJ and #CaseyJ). The Desperados
come to the ring first. Next, for
whatever reason, #CaseyJ comes out next.
Finally, #ConanJ graces us with his presence. He is accompanied to the right by a “Jones of
the Night.” This one just so happens to
be Jon “Bones” Jones from UFC fame. The
fans do NOT like Conan and he flips them off without a care. You may remember that there were some #ConanJ
fans who got tossed for trying to start a CM Punk chant. Those fans were allowed back but were told
that if they became unruly, they would be banned for good. The match took a while to start as #ConanJ
(who was supposed to start this off) refused to get in the ring. Finally, the ref convinced him and he
immediately tagged out to Casey. This
was a pretty evenly fought battle that saw lots of tagging in and out. At the 12 minute mark, Conan got locked in a
camel clutch by El Chango but he didn’t tap.
As soon as El Chango let up, #ConanJ jumped out of the ring and kept
walking. The fans booed him as he
deserted his partner. #ConanJ gets
counted out and costs his team their match.
The Desperados win the match; maybe not the way they wanted but a payday
is a payday. (12 ½ min)
The
American Wolves say that tonight, Beer Money gets theirs. They have nowhere to run and they finally get
the revenge they’ve been waiting all year for.
We
go back to the ring for our next match.
Brock Lesnar power walks to the ring and as soon as he’s there, he
starts pacing; waiting for his opponent.
Intercontinental Champion Tyler Breeze makes his way down. He gets in the ring and Brock goes right at
him. Ever since the 2nd
minute of the match, Brock owned this one.
He hits Tyler with an F-5 3 minutes in but Tyler, to his credit, kicks
out and continues. For the next 11
minutes, there was not one single submission or pin attempt. Both men just kept fighting. Brock hits a press & slam for a one
count; a back bodydrop for a 2 count; a powerbomb and a power clothesline. Brock finally makes the cover and gets the
1-2-3. Brock Lesnar has just defeated
Tyler Breeze to become the NEW IC Champion.
Brock wastes no time as he takes his belt and immediately leaves the
ring. (19 min)
The
ring crew comes out and begins to attach the steel cage being lowered from the
ceiling to the ring. This takes about 5
minutes.
Our
second to last match of the night is The American Wolves (Eddie Edwards and
Davy Richards) vs. Beer Money (James Storm and Bobby Roode) in a Steel Cage. The Wolves come down first and actually scale
the cage and are bouncing around the ring waiting for Beer Money. The music hits and out comes Storm and Roode. They swagger down to the ring but are
reluctant to get in the cage. Richards
holds the door open but Storm and Roode just circle the ring. Finally, GM Hulk Hogan comes out and tells
Beer Money to get in the ring and get this match started. They enter the ring and it is immediately
locked. Both teams went in and beat the
holy hell out of each other. This was
nothing short of an old fashioned street fight within the confines of a steel
structure. 16 minutes into the match,
Bobby Roode gets injured and for the remaining 9 minutes of the match, James
Storm carried the entire match. As the
end of the match came, Eddie Edwards begins to climb the cage and stands on the
very top of the cage. He launches
himself at Storm who catches him and nails a Pecos power slam. HOLY SHIT chants echo throughout the arena. Storm finally is able to crawl over and drape
an arm on Edwards. The ref counts
1…2…3. Beer Money has just got the pin
and now Storm needs to get out of the ring.
A recovering Bobby Roode sandwiches Davy Richards between the ropes and
the ring. Storm crawls out of the ring
and Beer Money officially win the match.
Bobby Roode picks up James Storm and helps him to the back. All of a sudden, Roode TURNS on Storm and
hits his with the Roode Awakening. Roode
stands over his former partner and then turns and leaves. (25 min)
The
cage is being removed and the ring is being cleaned up before our main
event. (5 min)
It
is time for our MAIN EVENT. First, the
challenger the Southern Belle comes out and heads to the ring to a pretty big
pop. She is then followed out by the
Undisputed Women’s Champion Ravishing Raquel. The two end up in the ring and
shake hands before the bell rings.
Before the match could begin, Belle takes the mic and says that the one
thing a main event doesn’t need is a countout or DQ finish. She asks Raquel to make this a NO DQ/CO rules
match. Raquel agrees but says that if
she does this, then only one of the belts will be defended tonight and not
both. Raquel says that the Diva’s title
will be on the line and Belle accepts.
Belle begins with offering friendship but kicks Raquel in the gut. Raquel hits a power full nelson and Belle
hits a flying body press. Raquel nails a
moonsault (and got ‘THAT WAS AWESOME’ chants) and Belle hits another flying
body press. Everything the champ threw at Belle was answered by something
equally as powerful. This went on for a
few minutes. Raquel was finally setting
Belle up for the Simply Ravishing but Belle somehow managed to power out of it
and hit the Moonshine. She then quickly
rolled Raquel up and the ref counted 1…2….3.
Southern Belle has just won the match and is the NEW DIVA’S
CHAMPION. Belle remains in the ring as
balloons and streamers fall from the ceiling. She celebrates her title with the
fans as the show comes to an end. As a
side note, Raquel is still the Women’s Champion. Looks like we’re going back to 2 separate
women’s championships.
Stay
tuned as there is one more day of Wrestlemania greatness.
