RAW, November 10. Raw started out in a big way, as the podium was already out in the ring, with seats set up (three set up for Luke Harper's team for some reason.) The TitanTron showed the results of the first two rounds of the WWE Survivor Series Fantasy Draft, as Triple H headed to the ring and took the podium. The fourteen Survivor Series captains, as they stood, filed out into the ring as the crowds gave a reaction- as Triple H took the mic. "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight we're getting the show off to a big start- you've seen the first two rounds, and now we're getting the third round of the draft started. Without further ado, I'd like to call Sheamus up for the first choice of this round." Sheamus headed to the ramp and looked towards Finn Balor. "Oi, thanks, fella. Great to have the first pick this week, an' even better- Ya know, I can't thank Finn Balor enough. For me' first choice, he taught me drafting a WWE legend like my idol, Finlay, was a great first pick. An' since he's so desperate to pick NXT superstars, it's great that he led me to pick a talent like Adrian Neville. So, if all these things are on the table right now...I had to make the right choices throughout. Makin' a great team- it's not just about the people bein' able to work well together, it's about making sure you get the best available. Finlay's the toughest bastard in Ireland, an' Adrian Neville's the best high-flyer to come out of NXT and come out of England ever. If I'm beatin' Finn Balor at Survivor Series, I need the best of the best. Finn, old boy...you just got your picks slashed down this round. Someone 'as to jump in the pool first, an' I'm gonna cannonball in to make sure I get the best pick possible. With my third round pick...I select PAIGE!" The crowd was in shock, then gave a cheer as Paige's theme hit. Paige headed down the ramp, the Divas' Championship on her shoulder, then took her place next behind Sheamus. "...what...I don't believe it! Sheamus may have just gotten the steal of the draft right here, guys- the Divas' Champion Paige going onto his Survivor Series team as the first pick of the third round!" "...steal nothing, Jericho- this isn't just a great choice with how talented Paige is...remember the rules of the fantasy draft! Finn Balor is now forced to draft a Diva with the next selection, and Sheamus just took the best of the bunch off the board!" Finn Balor went to the podium and took the mic. "...so, that's your little game, Sheamus? Well...I can't say I fault ya for that one. Paige- you're a great competitor. I think the world of ya...it's going to be a shame when I have to beat ya in two weeks time. If you didn't pick her, I would've. I can't do much about my required choice...but if she's going to be the first pick, if I have to face off with her at Survivor Series- the least I can do is show her some respect as a competitor and as a gentleman. If Paige has to be my opponent...the least I can do is fix her biggest problem and give her the match she needs to defend that title of hers. I have to pick a woman this round, Triple H? Works for me- in that case, I'M PICKING YOUR WIFE." The crowd cheered as Stephanie McMahon came to the ring and took the mic. "...hold on, hold on, Hunter. Now, I'm letting you have your little fantasy draft, even though YOU'RE the one risking your power in two weeks, not me- but you don't seem to get it. See, I'm a MCMAHON. That's a family that are the true kings of Ireland- if a worthless little Irish street punk like you doesn't realize, that means I'm BETTER than you, I'm better than anyone in this company- indeed, I'm better than anyone in this world. When I said I refused to fight Paige, and would merely wait it out until she's forced to surrender that title to me and give the Divas' Championship to a WORTHY champion- a woman who's able to hold her own in the boardroom, in the ring, and still have a perfect family life- the only true role model for little girls everywhere- I meant I would NOT fight Paige, not now, not EVER. Paige isn't WORTHY of fighting me, she's NEVER been worthy of holding that Divas' Championship that she won, by a FLUKE, because she cashed in a briefcase that I, as head of the Divas' Championship Committee, NEVER approved of being created for the Divas' Title and that I only allowed to exist under protest after my husband, Triple H, went behind my back to create the match. By refusing to fight Paige to force her to hand me back the Divas' Championship that by all rights, I never should have lost in the first place, I am taking a path of non-violent resistance to give the WWE Universe the champion they DESERVE, proving I am as great a human being as Mahatma Gandhi or Dr. Martin Luther King- making me not just a worthy champion, but a genuine HERO to women everywhere. Therefore, Balor? Pick someone else. I REFUSE to be part of the draw, and because I'm Stephanie McMahon, I CAN DO THAT." Balor shrugged. "Sorry about that. If I can't have her as my teammate- I'll go with the next best thing. I'm picking CHARLOTTE." Charlotte's theme hit as she headed down the ramp and took the side of Balor's team. 1- Sheamus SELECTS Paige 2- Finn Balor SELECTS Stephanie McMahon- TO- Charlotte THE EUROPEAN UNION vs. THE NXT GENERATION: Sheamus, Finlay, Adrian Neville, Paige-DIVA, 1 TBA vs. Finn Balor, Bo Dallas, Baron Corbin, Charlotte-DIVA, 1 TBA Bad News Barrett headed up to the podium and took the mic. "I'm not taking up any more of these people's time, since they know who's coming next- my next pick is HEATH SLATER!" Heath Slater headed down the ramp and took his place in the group, as Lana and Naomi headed up the ramp. "Schtrise, Schtrise. It is good that you see no need to take up time, as I have done the same as well. Upon talking with my dear new friend, Naomi, I take no time for another to help us destroy your little Nexus once and for all. Our next pick- is MIGUEL KHALIFA!" The Funkadactyls' theme hit as Khalifa headed down the ramp, then took a place next to his team... 3- Bad News Barrett SELECTS Heath Slater 4- Rusev SELECTS Miguel Khalifa THE NEXUS vs. THE UN-AMERICANS: Bad News Barrett, Darren Young, Justin Gabriel, Heath Slater, 1 TBA vs. Alexander Rusev, Jimmy Uso, Titus O'Neil, Miguel Khalifa, 1 TBA Roman Reigns headed up to the ramp. "...you know, I'm just shocked I didn't make this pick earlier. Whatever- he needed some time to clear his head- find himself, but I know he's still angry at y'all, he STILL wants his chance to give you the revenge for making him quit and ruining his tag team, his family. He STILL gonna prove- you can beat us, but you can't BREAK US- Believe THAT. MY next pick...J.ENTERPRISE!" The New Day's theme hit as J. Enterprise rapped his way down to the ring, hugged Roman Reigns, and motioned towards Bray Wyatt (Jimmy Uso glaring at him) before joining his team. Bray Wyatt cackled, then took the mic. "The naivete of family- it's so heartwarming how foolish a man can be. You can think your family is closer, but it's been broken. And while you break, I get stronger and stronger. Twice the people are looking to be freed. I found another dominant man, a man who had fell, who needs a man like me to make him strong again, and I will. My next pick...TENSAI." Tensai's theme hit as the crowd was slightly shocked, as Tensai took his place behind Bray Wyatt... 5- Roman Reigns SELECTS J. Enterprise 6- Bray Wyatt SELECTS Tensai THE ROMAN EMPIRE vs. THE WYATT FAMILY: Roman Reigns, Big E Langston, Solomon Crowe, J.Enterprise, 1 TBA vs. Bray Wyatt, Dylan Vachon, Scott Dawson, Tensai, 1 TBA Erick Rowan headed to the ring, Colin Cassady with him. Rowan made some unintelligible sounds, as Colin Cassady took the mic. "Yo...my big man Rowan here- he said he made his pick- he selects...RICKY SLATE!" Ricky Slate's theme hit as he high-fived fans, then joined the two as they waited for Luke Harper- as Bray Wyatt headed up again. "...the poor lost souls...they all must be beaten. Where I lost one lamb, I will get stronger with others. I found a lost lamb, a man who wants to be a leader of men- but I will make him follow, and from that he will get his dream. One man can't save anyone, but a Family can save the earth. Luke Harper selects...CJ PARKER!" CJ Parker's theme hit as he headed down the ramp and joined Luke Harper's team. 7- Erick Rowan SELECTS Ricky Slate 8- Luke Harper SELECTS CJ Parker THE LOST LAMBS vs. THE TEAM PLAYERS: Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate, 1 TBA vs. Luke Harper, Kevin Owens, Quentin Marsh, CJ Parker, 1 TBA Seth Rollins headed up to the podium... "...I already have my brother in Dean Ambrose. If I want to beat Randy Orton- I'm giving Sin Cara HIS brother too. My next pick...is KALISTO!" The crowd cheered as the Lucha Dragons' theme hit and Kalisto joined the queue at Rollins's side, then Randy Orton took the mic. "...I don't need to like these people. I just need to WIN with these people. I'm taking the best guy available. My pick...is TYLER BREEZE." Tyler Breeze headed down the ramp, then took a selfie with Orton. 9- Seth Rollins SELECTS Kalisto 10- Randy Orton SELECTS Tyler Breeze THE DRAGONSHIELD vs. THE VIPERS Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Sin Cara, Kalisto, 1 TBA vs. Randy Orton, Connor O'Brian, Damien Sandow, Tyler Breeze, 1 TBA Antonio Cesaro headed up to the podium, with John Cena saying again "BOO! YOU SUCK! NO ONE JOIN THIS GUY'S TEAM, HE SUCKS!" as Cesaro took his middle fingers and conducted Cena's claims, only for Triple H to admonish Cesaro. "Sorry, Cesaro- that's not PG." "I don't care, Hunter- totally worth it." "Waaah he was MEAN to me waaaah." "No, Cena- you don't KNOW mean yet. You haven't seen the worst I can do." "Waaaah I'm weawwy weawwy gonna beated oo up oo meany waaah". "...keep doing it. You just make my choice easier and easier. See...I don't just want to beat you, I want to break you. I want to break you until you get back to normal." "Waaaah oo're soooo meeean to evwyone waaah" "...are you done? See...I made my choice. Good pick, Sheamus. You really made it easier. See...I'm going to make sure you get what you deserved, not just as a wrestler, but as a human being. When I lost to Brock Lesnar- you took my failings as a wrestler, and you turned them into my failings as a MAN. I didn't do this, Cena. YOU did this. You want to come at me as a man, I'm coming at YOU as a man. My third round pick? I pick NIKKI BELLA!" The Bella Twins' theme hit as the crowd gave an audible gasp as Nikki Bella tentatively headed down the ramp. "...w-wait. This...this is shocking." "Shocking nothing. Everyone watches the E! hit show 'Total Divas'- it's not a secret Nikki Bella's the girlfriend of John Cena...Cesaro just went for the jugular here." "Junior, this isn't shocking at all. John Cena's been hitting low blow after low blow on Antonio Cesaro, he's been trying to end his career- at least- for months. Antonio Cesaro's just hit the lowest blow he could on John Cena." John Cena stood up and got in Triple H's face, saying "COME ON! You know this is a load of crap!" Triple H said "Sorry, John, Cesaro drafted her- the rules say it- anyone on the roster's eligible...it counts." Cena kicked the ropes, then turned to Stephanie McMahon and said "Take Nikki out of the draw! You got to do it so you didn't have to lose to Paige again and lose your little number one contendership, you can do it for her!" Stephanie got in Cena's face... "...first off, even if I was GOING to do it- which I WASN'T, since Nikki Bella isn't a McMahon, and thus isn't GOOD ENOUGH to be taken out of the draw like I am, I DAMN SURE won't if you're willing to claim Paige would beat me, to claim I don't deserve to be number one contendership. THE PICK STANDS." "DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM? I AM JOHN CENA! I'M THE BEST IN THE BUSINESS TODAY! I AM THE REASON EVERY ONE OF THESE PEOPLE ARE WATCHING RAW, I'M THE REASON THEY'RE ALL IN THIS BUILDING RIGHT NOW, I AM THE STAR OF THIS SHOW, WHAT I SAY GOES, AND YOU KNOW THIS!" Stephanie McMahon got in Cena's face. "I KNOW who you are. You're a WORTHLESS COG. There's only ONE irreplacable person in the WWE today- and it's not you, it's not Antonio Cesaro, it DAMN SURE isn't Nikki Bella...it's not even Triple H. IT'S ME. THE PICK STANDS." Angered, John Cena turned to Nikki Bella, and said "PULL YOURSELF OUT OF THE MATCH!" Nikki Bella looked at Cena, and said "I'd like to..." as Stephanie said "THE PICK IS FINAL." Cena said "GO WITH A 5-on-4, CESARO WANTS TO WASTE THE PICK, WALK OFF OF HIS TEAM." Nikki tried to quit for it, but Triple H said "sorry, the pick stands" as Stephanie said "It's official. The pick stands. At Survivor Series, Nikki Bella WILL be on Antonio Cesaro's side." Nikki Bella said "Sorry..." to Cena, as Cena got in her face. "SORRY...SORRY? You...you won't even TRY to quit his team." "I'm trying to quit, I swear!" "Swear nothing. You...you've been on Antonio Cesaro's side all this time! HE LOST WWE THE WWE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP, AND YOU'RE ON HIS SIDE!" "I can't quit the team! They just said it! I'm sorry...HE picked me, not me picking him!" John Cena was furious, staring down Nikki, clearly raging- then dropped his voice. "...Nikki...you TOOK CESARO'S SIDE. You were just like all of the CeNation members who LIED when they said they were true CeNation members, then turned around and CHOSE HIM OVER ME. The one person who I thought was on MY side, chose CESARO OVER ME, just like everyone else in the world did." Nikki Bella started sobbing and saying "No, that's not it, I swear!" as John Cena glared at her. "Nikki...YOU HURT ME. ...now... ...NOW, I'm going to HURT YOU. My third round pick...IS BRIE BELLA." Brie Bella's theme hit as the crowd booed. Brie Bella tried protesting, as Triple H and Stephanie McMahon shook their heads, Nikki Bella saying "HOW COULD YOU?" to Cena as Brie Bella went to Cena's side, not even looking at her sister. 11- Antonio Cesaro SELECTS Nikki Bella 12- John Cena SELECTS Brie Bella THE SWISS ARMY vs. THE CENATION: Antonio Cesaro, Sami Zayn, Jack Swagger, Nikki Bella-DIVA, 1 TBA vs. John Cena, Curtis Axel, Zack Ryder, Brie Bella-DIVA, 1 TBA The fans were a little rattled, as Goldust headed up to the podium. "I'm going to make it short and sweet. I'm taking another classic talent- someone to destroy Cody. I pick JIMMY YANG." Jimmy Yang headed through as Cody Rhodes took the mic. "...you're going with talent that low- I'm taking a hot prospect of the now. I pick ALEX RILEY." Alex Riley headed down handing Bo-Lieve buttons to everyone, then handed one to Cody Rhodes, who threw it away as the third round ended. 14- Goldust SELECTS Jimmy Yang 13- Cody Rhodes SELECTS Alex Riley THE BIZARRE ONES vs. THE LEGACY: Goldust, Big Show, Fandango, Jimmy Yang, 1 TBA vs. Cody Rhodes, Ted DiBiase, Tyson Kidd, Alex Riley, 1 TBA (96) The first match had Solomon Crowe finally give Charlotte the Cruiserweight Title match she had been angling for for weeks. Charlotte came to the ring flanked by Evolution, while the Code of Solomon flanked Crowe as he headed to the ring. Charlotte took the mic, saying that it was impossible for Charlotte to get a fair title opportunity as long as the Code of Solomon was there. The referee forced them back to the dressing room, as Solomon Crowe tried the same for Charlotte- who said that this was proof Crowe didn't want to give her a fair fight. The crowd booed as Crowe locked up with Charlotte, who tried to use every bit of Flair patented cheating to take out Crowe. Crowe tried fighting back, but any time he got a move, Charlotte complained to the referee and said Crowe was using illegal moves. Crowe tried using simple headlocks, but Charlotte even complained about them. Crowe argued with the referee, but Charlotte rolled Crowe up and grabbed the tights, getting the win to be the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion. Charlotte kissed the belt, holding it up to the crowd as Evolution celebrated with the new champion.(61) Backstage, Charlotte was still jubilant, the Cruiserweight Title around her shoulder. Even with Charlotte's problem with Evolution, a string of Divas headed into Stephanie McMahon and the Divas' Championship Committee's office to congratulate Charlotte over her victory. When Paige did the same- or at least, looked at the title, then begrudgingly shook Charlotte's hand- this was enough for Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie talked about how great Stephanie's leadership has done to inspire Charlotte to do what no Diva could- win a men's title in her rookie year, and finally become a child Ric Flair could be proud of. Paige tried ignoring Stephanie, only for Stephanie to say that in honor of this, and since Paige has to fight men anyway at Survivor Series, in the goodness of Stephanie's heart, she'll give Paige the opportunity of a lifetime- tonight, she will fight a member of The NXT Generation- Bo Dallas, for the United States Championship. This led to the ring, as Bo Dallas begrudgingly headed to the ring. Dallas talked about how Paige's issues with Stephanie are a problem, but he has all the respect in the world for her for rising above her issues and fighting them. He knows that this is proof that Paige, all along, has Bo-Lieved...and that was enough for Paige to attack. Paige brought the fight to Bo Dallas, brutalizing the Bo-Liever with a number of vicious assaults. Paige Turner followed, as Paige got the shocker. The fans were ecstatic as Paige held aloft the United States Title...only for Stephanie McMahon's music to hit. Stephanie said that, she's sorry, but apparently there was a typo in the match. See, unfortunately since Stephanie McMahon is number one contender to the Divas' Title, so that means that no opponent is a worthwhile challenger for her...but that also follows on the other side. Paige is NOT a worthy challenger for Bo Dallas- and unfortunately, that means this match was retroactively a non-title encounter. Bo Dallas, excited by his reprieve as United States Champion, did a victory lap as the crowd booed, then handed Stephanie McMahon a cookie and a Bo-Lieve button as Paige looked furious. (89, 75) Titus O'Neil, Miguel Khalifa, and Jimmy Uso came to the ring with both The Funkadactyls, Alexander Rusev, Dennis Rodman, and Lana to a chorus of boos. Lana talked about how finally, at long last, she has some kindred spirits in this business. Perhaps America can make some people who are intelligent enough to see how America must be destroyed. These men and women fight the good fight against the American people on their own soil- more proof they have no skill similar to the people of Russia or North Korea. There, leaders like Kim Jong-Un and Vladimir Putin do not see race, they do not see color, they see opportunity to prove yourself to the people. As they are so progressive, where America can not be, so too can their friendship be honored for the world. This brought out The Nexus, as Bad News Barrett said that this was what they thought? You're angry at the people- so you turn your back and ally with Rusev, Lana, and Dennis Rodman? They hate ANY Americans for being American. This is why a foreign coalition to beat Rodman's Second-World Tour was going to succeed. The Funkadactyls and their men have no clue about life. The Nexus doesn't see any issues- they take what they want with their fists, not by complaining. Look at them- you have a great British gentleman like himself- plus my three friends here- none of the Nexus complains about their lot in life. Look at us- we have one openly gay man in Darren Young, we have one African national in Justin Gabriel...and perhaps worst of all, Heath Slater's a ginger! Do you see us complain? Not at all. This was enough to start six-man action. The Nexus kept up an attack on the three, attacking any member of the group they could. Bad News Barrett was on the outside of the ring, keeping Rusev out of the ring- but that was a problem, as there were three women on the outside to fight the team as well. The Funkadactyls distracted Justin Gabriel- allowing Jimmy Uso to crack Gabriel with a vicious superkick and take him out for the win. (88, 78) Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose tried to test out their tag team partners at Survivor Series, giving The Lucha Dragons a big shot at them. Sin Cara and Kalisto didn't have El Abejorro alongside them this time, but even without the third man they were able to bring an attack to Rollins and Ambrose. Sin Cara and Kalisto dazzled Rollins, who was taking a lot of their attacks- whether it was to see what they were made of or if the Lucha Dragons shut his emo ass down is unclear at the time. Sin Cara went for the moonsault, but Dean Ambrose hit the ropes, sending Sin Cara flying. Kalisto tried for an attack, but Rollins got him down, then hit the Curb Stomp for the win. After the match, The Shield looked at the Lucha Dragons- then helped them up before shaking their hands and raising them to the crowd. (83) The Wyatt Family tried out one of their teammates, as Tensai took on J.Enterprise. Enterprise and AC Halliburton rapped to the ring, as Scott Dawson kept talking to Tensai as the match happened. Bray Wyatt headed to the announce table, talking about how now, Tensai got him an angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other- but the devil controls the angel as much as he controls man. In the ring, J. Enterprise had a big chance to show his own skills...which were still similar to his brother's, but very easy to take on the big man. A superkick party happened as Enterprise took control, followed by a big crossbody to give J. Enterprise the big win. J. Enterprise and AC Halliburton celebrated, as Tensai went to attack. Scott Dawson tried getting in Tensai's face to stop him- only for Bray Wyatt to sing how he had the whole world in his hands. Dawson tried fighting, only for the lights to drop. When they came back, Bray Wyatt and Tensai had vanished, as Scott Dawson looked and waited.(67) Erick Rowan got a chance to get to know his new teammate, Ricky Slate, as they took on Slate's rivals The Returning Kings. The two's teamwork didn't seem to gel immediately, which was a benefit as Donny Sparkle started attacking. A shot with the loaded doll tried to attack Rowan, then a second, then a third before Rowan even started to waver- then Ricky Slate got a tag. Slate was a house afire, attacking Sparkle and DynamicSensation relentlessly with everything he had. Slate signalled for the Bottom Rung- but Luke Harper and Quentin Marsh hit the ring and attacked both guys, drawing them the DQ victory. Harper and Marsh kept attacking, leaving the wrestlers sprawled out in the ring.(67) In the main event, John Cena teamed with Brie Bella to take on Antonio Cesaro and Nikki Bella. John Cena put himself on the outside of the ring, shouting towards Nikki 'THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR BETRAYING ME!'- only for Antonio Cesaro to tag himself in and force Cena in. Cena tagged Brie Bella in, refusing to fight Cesaro and WANTING his girlfriend to have to fight her twin sister. Cesaro kept tagging out for Nikki's benefit, as Cena got more and more angry. Finally, Cena let Cesaro have his match, and then attacked him. Cena started tearing into Cesaro with vicious rights and lefts, screaming 'SHE'S MINE, NOT YOURS!' at Cesaro as he tried to defend himself. Cena was a man possessed, however. Cena went for the Spoiler Alert for 10 rotations, went right to the Attitude Adjustment- but then went to a ground and pound on Cesaro, punishing Cesaro with rights and lefts as the referee TRIED to pull Cena off of him. Cena kept punching at Cesaro, not caring that the referee was calling a point, as he tried to bloody and batter Cesaro. The referee finally called for the bell (as Chris Jericho talked about how ground and pound was illegal under the WWE rulebook), as Cena kept going. Jack Swagger and Sami Zayn pulled Cena off of Cesaro, Swagger restraining Cena as Zayn checked on Cesaro. The show ended as Cena glared at Nikki Bella, shouting 'LOOK WHAT YOU MADE ME DO!' at her as Nikki was in shock.(84)

SMACKDOWN, November 14. Smackdown started off with a big Intercontinental Title match, as Bray Wyatt squared off with J. Enterprise for the belt. Josh Mathews and JBL talked about how on WWE.com, Triple H had announced that there will be a supplemental draft choice for Luke Harper's team tonight, wondering if the Wyatt Family could get even stronger than they have been. This didn't seem to bother Bray Wyatt, as AC Halliburton got run off by the might of Dylan Vachon, Luke Harper, and Quentin Marsh. Enterprise tried to fight back on Wyatt, using all the anger he'd had since Wyatt made him quit, but Wyatt seemed to be too tough to fight. A superkick party got J. Enterprise back in the mix, as he kept up a fight. Wyatt tried to fight back as he showed J. Enterprise how a crab walks, but Enterprise merely hit a crossbody onto him and take him out. When all seemed lost, Roman Reigns led Scott Dawson to the ring, who seemed to find Tensai from where the Wyatt Family abducted them. That was Dawson's mistake number one- as Bray Wyatt hit a old children's hymn to the ears on Tensai, who went blank, then attacked J. Enterprise with the Harvard-educated Meshugginator, allowing Wyatt to get the victory. The Wyatt Family stood triumphant with their new member, only for Scott Dawson to powerbomb Dylan Vachon, followed by Roman Reigns showing his similarity to his cousin with a Superman Punch and Spear Party on all the Wyatt Family.(85) Heath Slater was in the ring air-guitaring for the fans for his match...oh, wait. It's Heath Slater. Probably not a good thing. ...and here comes Baron Corbin's music. REALLY not a good thing. End of Days hit, Slater's done in 10 seconds. (67) The screen cut to a sign saying "The following Diva walked into the arena before the show today. Here is what happened to her". The camera picked up as Paige parked her car and was WALKING~! through the garage into the arena in a quick cut. The Returning Kings were talking to each other on the side. DynamicSensation said Hi to her, as Paige didn't respond. Donny Sparkle followed her a little bit, and said Hi to her again, as Paige's expression was a little bit more angered. Both Returning Kings kept doing this as Paige kept walking, starting to say "What, can't you even say hi back?" as Paige looked more and more furious. The two men kept trying to start a conversation as Paige kept walking. Finally, they followed her into the arena, still catcalling towards her, as Sheamus showed up in the background. Brogue Kick to DynamicSensation, Brogue Kick to Donny Sparkle. Paige entered the Divas' dressing room as the show went to break. (76) Apparently, the video didn't cause any problems beforehand, as Donny Sparkle took on the thorn in his team's side, Ricky Slate. Slate took an attack to the alleged Master, punishing him with a number of vicious moves. This led to Donny Sparkle complaining, going to the referee. Ricky Slate kept his attack going, as Donny Sparkle threw a temper tantrum. Sparkle finally gave up, taking his doll and walking backstage as the referee started counting. Ricky Slate followed him and went for the attack- but Sparkle clocked Slate with his loaded doll and headed back to the ring, as Slate couldn't follow him for the countout victory. After the match, Donny Sparkle celebrated, as Ricky Slate attacked him and the two brawled to the back.(65) A high-flying battle occurred, as Jimmy Yang had a chance to prove why Goldust picked him against Tyson Kidd. Yang had his partners in 3 Man Bullet, Domino and Ariel, at his side to help him. However, Tyson Kidd took the advantage quickly, punishing Yang with his well-rounded attack and countering all of Yang's high flying. A Sharpshooter followed, as Tyson Kidd got an easy victory.(64) CJ Parker headed to the ring and took a mic, as he talked about what an honor it was to be drafted by any team. While he doesn't support the Wyatt Family and will be proud to be his own man as he teaches the people how to be better to their earth, the chance to win at Survivor Series and go on to the Royal Rumble and beat Brock Lesnar for the title is more than worth teaming with Luke Harper. He looked through Erick Rowan's team, and found the best challenge he could to show how great he is. He fought all the best stars, and chose his best- as El Torito headed to the ring to the crowd's boos. Parker said this is proof of a great star- as a small person, his carbon footprint is the smallest of any star. He can't support farming practices to keep a bull alive, but he also can't support any of Mother Nature's creatures being killed for no reason- so he'll fight this baby bull and destroy it humanel-aww why do they keep doing that El Torito got on the ropes and hit a springboard Bullacanrana on CJ Parker for the win. LEARN, DUMMY!(78) Another big battle of recent draftees started as Tyler Breeze took on Miguel Khalifa. Breeze headed to the ring carrying his selfie stick, and took pictures of himself as the crowd booed- only to boo louder as Lana headed to the ring alongside The Funkadactyls and Khalifa. Lana said that Tyler Breeze is the best example of everything wrong with America (we'll ignore he's from Canada because really it's just America's hat anyways, amirite?), another vapid person who cares more about his...selfies...than the world. If he was, he may think he is beautiful, but no one can be more beautiful than Vladimir Putin. This was fighting words to Breeze, who attacked Khalifa with reckless abandon, punishing him with everything he could. Miguel Khalifa tried fighting back, but Breeze fought him, screaming 'SAY I'M PRETTY!' as Khalifa struggled against him. Beauty Shot followed, as Tyler Breeze had a big victory.(67) The Bella Twins had to fight together to take on the unlikely team of WWE Divas' Champion Paige and WWE Cruiserweight Champion Charlotte- which was bad enough for the twins. It was made worse as John Cena showed up on the ramp and argued with Nikki Bella, demanding she drop out of Antonio Cesaro's team. The argument made things worse for Brie Bella, as suddenly she was forced into a 2-on-1 handicap match. Nikki Bella tried pushing away to get to the ring, as Cena said 'NO! THIS IS WHAT YOU GET! YOU WANT TO HELP HER, QUIT CESARO'S TEAM!' as Nikki got angry. Paige and Charlotte put on a good matchup with Brie, each decimating the woman as Nikki tried pushing away from Cena. Nikki Bella got to the apron as Brie Bella went for a tag- but John Cena grabbed Nikki and pulled her off the apron as Brie's last gasp was there. Cena got Nikki in a full nelson, leaving her to watch as Brie Bella tapped out to the PTO. Cena screamed "LOOK WHAT YOU MADE HAPPEN!" as Nikki started sobbing.(83, 83) In the main event, we had a WWE Tag Team Title match as Big Show and Colin Cassady took on the team of Luke Harper and The Wyatt Family's newest monster, Tensai. The Wyatts began an attack- made even worse by Quentin Marsh and Dylan Vachon attacking on that benefit. The two kept up the fight as they were attacked by four people. Big Show threw big punches as Cassady threw big boots, but eventually the Wyatt Family's attack was too much. Just when all seemed lost, the cavalry came in the form of Erick Rowan, who started attacking Luke Harper with everything in his arsenal. Big Show smashed Marsh and Tensai's heads together as Colin Cassady chokeslammed Dylan Vachon, before Big Show got the big victory. The two celebrated in the ring and held the titles up... ...as Bray Wyatt showed up on the mic. "Luuukee...brother Luke...I talked to Hunter. I cleared it for you. I gave you the deliverance you asked me to. You put your faith in me, and it moves the mountains. Your Supplemental pick... ...he's here." The ZAP seemed to hit... ...but instead of the sheep mask, the white horses headed towards the ring. Just then, DynamicSensation showed up and clocked Colin Cassady with the loaded doll! DynamicSensation, Quentin Marsh, and Tensai grabbed Cassady and signalled for the Kingslayer, before Big Show saved his protege from the attack. The three kept up the attack as the show ended...(78)

RAW, NOVEMBER 17. Raw started off as WWE talked about all the draft picks made on WWE.com over the weekend, announce arguably the biggest pick- and speak of the devil, Antonio Cesaro and his team headed to the ring to announce his choice over the weekend. Antonio Cesaro said that he's really excited for his team to fight at Survivor Series- which led to John Cena heading to the ring. Cena greeted Jack Swagger and Sami Zayn- deliberately ignoring Cesaro and Nikki Bella- and talked about how, he knows he's been a jerk to Antonio Cesaro recently-what with the whole 'calling a spade a spade and admitting you lost WWE the WWE World Heavyweight Championship' thing to 'he tricked his girlfriend into taking his side and not Cena's'- but he has to thank him. He actually gave Cena an easier road at Wrestlemania with a 5-on-4 disadvantage. Doesn't he get it? The Rock doesn't show up for anything except Wrestlemania or if he has a new movie to promote! The Rock doesn't love the fans as much as Cena loved his fans! He's not going to get off some cushy movie set to spend his time working with a worthless traitor to the WWE, his little vanilla midget friends, and a dirty skank who wants to treat her boyfriend like dirt. Do you think he's going to help you? Do you think he'll really show up...? Do you...SMELL! WHAT THE ROCK! IS COOKING! Just then, an appearance happened via satellite, as The Rock showed up to cheers. The Rock talked about how finally, The Rock HAS COME BACK to the WWE. The Rock said that normally, he would spend his time on the set of his new movie, Team Bring It will be chugging along, putting Boots to Asses, and other things that trend on Twitter. But he had a little down time this weekend, and The Rock saw that he was drafted on WWE.com's Survivor Series Fantasy Draft, and apparently, The Rock has been requested for a team to Survivor Series. The Rock knew Antonio Cesaro on sight, but The Rock hadn't really gotten to know Antonio Cesaro. So The Rock got on his Twitter, TheRock, and The Rock talked to Antonio Cesaro. And Tweets turned to talking on the phone, and Antonio Cesaro talked to The Great One. And then, The Rock heard the words that he'd been longing to hear for over a decade- FINALLY! THE WWE UNIVERSE! HAS REALIZED! WHAT A GIGANTIC PIECE OF MONKEY CRAP! JOHN CENA IS! Now, The Rock had KNOWN that John Cena was a piece of monkey crap for years. The Rock knew that John Cena was an overgrown five year old, that John Cena was a worthless retard. And when The Great One fought John Cena, the People had taken The Rock's side, and the people KNEW that John Cena was a worthless piece of monkey crap- but then, suddenly, it was back to Fruity Pebbles and 'YOU CAN'T SHEE ME!' and suddenly they seemed to forget what they had just learned- that CENA SUCKS! (as the chant continued.) But now, at long last, FINALLY, the WWE Universe realized what The Rock has known, what THE PEOPLE have known. And when The Rock heard this, and when Antonio Cesaro told him that he needed someone to finally put John Cena in his place for good- THAT was all he needed. So The Rock went to his co-stars, and said I need to hold production up for a day this Sunday, and his co-stars were concerned for their wait time. And The Rock went to the director and said he needed to hold production up a day Sunday, and the director said they were on a schedule. And The Rock went to his producer, and told him that he needed to hold production up a day, and the producer said it's his money, he'll lose a million for that day- but then The Rock told all of them he needed to to help KICK JOHN CENA'S ASS at Survivor Series, and they all said YES, we'll be glad to see you do that, because ALL of THE PEOPLE want John Cena TO GET HIS ASS KICKED! Sunday night- there WILL be a five-on-five. You are not going one-on-one with The Great One, or one on one with The Swiss Superman, or one on one with The Real American, or one on one with The Underdog from the Underground, or even one on one with the one who has the balls in your relationship- THEY are going FIVE-ON-FIVE with the biggest piece of monkey crap in the WWE, and Curtis Axel, Zack Ryder, Brie Bella, and Bull Dempsey- the only four people in the world who'd actually still THINK John Cena wasn't a complete loser- IF YOU SMELL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOKING! The first match occurred, as Bo Dallas defended his United States Championship against Adrian Neville. Dallas had the Bo-Liever Bus with him as he brought his title belt- with Adrian Neville countering by bringing out Paige, the woman who "should" have beaten Dallas last week. This was a big distraction to Dallas, who talked about how there's adversity in everyone's careers, but he rose above them, all because he Bo-Lieves. Adrian Neville- well, he bo-lieved that Dallas was a joke and showed him with a big kick- does that count? Neville attacked Dallas with his dazzling offense, punishing him throughout. Dallas could fight back, slowing Neville down and doing what he pleased. Paige was at the side shouting support, as Dallas argued with her- and that was his mistake. Adrian Neville dropkicked Dallas, then got to the top. Red Arrow connected, and Adrian Neville became the new United States Champion. After the match, Neville and Paige celebrated, as Bo Dallas threw a temper tantrum- which was worse as Finn Balor attacked Dallas in the ring for losing the belt. A Bloody Sunday followed, as Balor said "Sunday, this happens to YOU." as he pointed towards Neville. Backstage, Roman Reigns was talking to- or TRYING to talk to- Eden Rhodes, saying that Reigns picked her because he trusts her. He doesn't need her to do much- the Wyatt Family is a rough road for anyone. All he needs Eden to do is to take out Lana, and if she can do that- Reigns will make sure the rest of them don't give her any problems afterwards. It'd be an impressive pep talk if Eden wasn't acting oblivious and Goldust-esque...and even more impressive if the Wyatt Family didn't jump Reigns and punish him. The rivalry between Ricky Slate and the Returning Kings continued, as Slate took on his new opponent at Survivor Series in DynamicSensation. Slate tore into the man with everything he had, punishing him with ruthless aggression and trying to end his opponent as much as possible. DynamicSensation fought back and tried to attack, punishing him with cheap shots and shots with the loaded doll. DynamicSensation went to the top for the Happening- but Slate got out at 2.999. Slate fought again and went for a Bottom Rung, but Donny Sparkle attacked him from behind. A second Happening followed, and Slate was done for. After the match, DynamicSensation grabbed Ricky Slate and tried for the Kingslayer- but Erick Rowan hit the ring and hit an Avalanche on him, then another on Donny Sparkle. After the match, Ricky Slate took the side of Erick Rowan as the two went backstage and regrouped. In the ring, Triple H came to the ring and asked if this is how it all ends on Sunday. Triple H is the greatest businessman, the greatest wrestler of all time. He has always done what's best for you, the fans, and what's best for business with his power. Triple H gives you the best superstars of today on the WWE, the best superstars of tomorrow in NXT. He understands pro wrestling as a sport, as entertainment, as a business. And Sunday, he has to put it all on the line- to lose his power, to force the fans to risk the best thing for THEM, not just for this business...in favor of Hideo Itami, an international star who barely scratched the surface of the sport in America...and Dennis Haskins as his money? He might be able to accept a man like Hideo Itami taking this much power, but MR.BELDING? That is not what's best for this business. That brought out Haskins at the side of Itami, as Haskins said that is the whole problem. Triple H thinks that Haskins believes it's just money, it's just knowing what fans want- but there are other investors. There are three BIG investors that he has at his side who know wrestling. Triple H got in his face and demanded to know who...as Haskins said, "THEM." Just then, Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels headed down the ramp to the crowd's cheers. Flair and Shawn said that THIS is what Triple H's become? Both of these men taught Triple H better than this. They taught Triple H everything he knows to become the big superstar he is- and they thought if the two greatest wrestlers of all time put all their intelligence into one man as great as Triple H, he would be unstoppable as a wrestler, as a mind for the business...and when Triple H married into the McMahon family, eventually be the man to make the WWE greater for everyone. But somewhere in a board room, Triple H forgot what makes the WWE so special- it's not any promoter, it's not any wrestler, it's each and every member of the WWE Universe that makes the WWE so special. No promoter decides what's Best for Business, the WWE Universe decide what's best for the WWE. Unfortunately, evil people like the McMahon family have gotten inside the head of Triple H- and they spoiled someone they believed would take WWE into the future. So, for the good of the pro wrestling industry- NOT the sports entertainment industry- that they loved- though it hurts them to do it, they needed to be the ones to shoot Old Yeller themselves. They went to Hideo Itami and Dennis Haskins, and they said if they need money, they need minds, they need help taking over Triple H's power- they'll be right there to do it. Triple H was their greatest protege- but now, for the good of pro wrestling, you have to be destroyed for good- and they'll help make sure that at Survivor Series, Hideo Itami does it. In eight-man tag action, The Nexus took on The DragonShield. Jaz Fawkes joined the members of commentary, as she and Chris Jericho talked about how they talked with their teammates Sunday, and they and The Nexus agreed to a match to prepare with each other. The DragonShield proved they needed a little help- The Shield and Lucha Dragons, on paper, had some great teamwork against the four Nexus members, but together it left something to be desired. Bad News Barrett took a punishment on them, fighting each member, as Darren Young countered with some straightforward attacks and Justin Gabriel tried dazzling them. Finally after frequent shifts, Heath Slater was in with Seth Rollins- and this was too much for the attack. Curb Stomp followed by Rollins, and The DragonShield got a big win to train themselves. Backstage, Mr. Money in the Bank Cody Rhodes was WALKING~! to the ring, as a man in polka dots stopped him- only to reveal that Cody was being chastised by...well, not his father, but Goldust. The alleged "DustDust" said that this was the biggest mistake in Cody's career. Briefcases, Evolution, are one thing- but Goldust did more than that. He broke up the family- and now, Goldust is taking all of those from you. This led to a match in the ring, as Cody Rhodes and Goldust tore into each other. Goldust was on the offensive, punishing Cody with everything he had. Goldust had nothing to lose, and he tore into Rhodes. Rhodes took the attack, but Ted DiBiase headed to the ring and whispered to Cody- who then left the ring and took a countout. Goldust waited, as Cody Rhodes gloated that he needed to save his energy. At Survivor Series, he has a match with Goldust. Goldust can use his strength, his career will only last 44 more days. Even if Goldust beats him at Survivor Series- even if Goldust is a Sole Survivor...Brock Lesnar's not showing up for the rest of 2014. Goldust's career will STILL only be 44 more days, and Goldust will STILL retire on December 31. Cody can let Goldust have this win- he has a whole career ahead of him. Backstage, Brie Bella went to Stephanie McMahon, and demanded something happen to change this. Nikki Bella and John Cena's relationship is dying- take Nikki out of the draft order. Stephanie McMahon said that if her relationship isn't as strong as Brie and Daniel Bryan's, or Stephanie and her husband, Triple H's...that just happens. Brie Bella said that if she can't be taken out of the match- it's a team format, there's draft picks, right? Brie Bella demands a trade to Antonio Cesaro's team- and since she's a Diva, she has to be traded for Nikki Bella. Stephanie smiled and said there was no rule saying trades could occur- so she just made one. There IS no trades. Brie Bella said that was unfair, as Stephanie said that the draft order doesn't apply only to people who are too GOOD for the draft- like her. Don't say what's unfair- as you don't know what unfair is. Brie Bella argued, as Stephanie said 'you know what? I want to see a Survivor Series preview. Tonight, you will fight Nikki Bella!' as Brie got angry. This led to the main event, as Brie Bella and Nikki Bella had to fight. Brie Bella tried to walk out- as Stephanie McMahon came to the ring and said that she's seen what the Bella Twins have tried to do every other time that Stephanie's forced them to fight for her amusement- and it's fine for little bathroom break matches. But this is a big moment. Tonight, the WWE is giving Divas a chance to shine- this is the first Divas' match to main event Raw in 10 years. This needs more of a fight. That's why, in the interest of fairness and to prove Stephanie's not just a great businesswoman, not just a great wrestler, not just a great wife and mother, but a great human being as well- she'll be good to Nikki Bella. Therefore, IF Nikki Bella beats her sister Brie tonight, then Stephanie will allow Nikki Bella to drop out of Antonio Cesaro's team at Survivor Series to be replaced by another Diva. This led to Brie Bella turning and walking out of the ring, as Stephanie McMahon told Brie there's no countouts. Brie tried tapping out to a handshake, as Stephanie said "No Submissions." Brie tried laying down, and then Stephanie said "DON'T COUNT THE PINFALL!" Brie argued with Stephanie as she tried to take the pin, as Stephanie grinned and said 'Ooh, I like this one, Brie...I just decided. If you get pinned tonight, then...then your husband, Daniel Bryan, will lose his rematch clause for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship when he returns from injury!'. This led to Nikki Bella trying the same things, as Stephanie told the referee to refuse the pinfall. Brie and Nikki tried fighting a bit- but finally, John Cena showed up and deliberately slapped Brie Bella, causing Nikki the win by disqualification. John Cena then said "See? I SAVED YOU. THANK ME!" as he argued. Nikki hemmed and hawed as Cena got in her face, and then Antonio Cesaro attacked Cena. Cesaro Swing for 10 rotations, as Cesaro said "What's your choice, Nikki? You won...you want out, I'll find someone else." Nikki Bella turned, looked at John Cena- then kissed Antonio Cesaro as the crowd gave a huge cheer, and Nikki said "I'M IN." Nikki kissed Cesaro again, looking at Cena to Cena's horror as Raw ended...

SMACKDOWN, November 21: Smackdown started with a big title match, as Big Show and Colin Cassady defended their WWE Tag Team Titles against Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins. The Shield tried focusing their attacks on the rookie Cassady, hoping that this would be a easier road to tow than the World's Largest Athlete. Unfortunately, they picked wrong- indeed, Big Show was the BETTER choice for them. JBL and Josh Mathews talked about if this could be a bad move for their chances on Sunday as the seven-footers celebrated. Backstage, Paige was cutting an interview about her risk on Sunday, when The Four Broskis headed over to her. Enzo Amore took the lead, saying that Sunday's gonna be great- he and his Broskis here were thinkin' they wanted to roll around on the mat with her and make her submit. Paige looked disgusted as Enzo Amore, The Big O, Zack Ryder, and Mike Chiappetta kept up this line of plans- until Sheamus headed in. Brogue Kick to Enzo's allies- as Enzo Amore relaxed. Until he got to the ring. Brogue Kick, Brogue Kick, Brogue Kick, Brogue Kick, Enzo Amore fall down go boom- and you can't teach DAT. Erick Rowan had a big match with the captain of his rival team at Survivor Series, taking on Luke Harper in a battle of former Wyatt Family members. Paul Heyman was right there on commentary, where he talked about how he doesn't care about either member of these teams, but he'd prefer Erick Rowan win their match and go on to be the Sole Survivor. See- his client, Brock Lesnar, is the most dominant demigod of pro wrestling- anyone he faces is going to be a speed bump in order to get to his goal of retiring as WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Luke Harper is a great performer, and he's so unpredictable you can never discount he could get that one lucky punch to get a fluke victory over Brock Lesnar. Erick Rowan, though? He's a moron. He's a manchild. He proved he doesn't have the mind to defeat Brock Lesnar when he made his pick last weekend on WWE.com. He actually had the gall, the audacity, the IDIOCY to pick The Undertaker. The Undertaker is DEAD. The Undertaker was retired for good at Wrestlemania when his client, Brock Lesnar, conquered the Undertaker's undefeated streak, when Paul Heyman became the One behind the One in 21-1. Picking The Undertaker now would be as much of a joke as if he listened to these wannabes in the crowd and picked Macho Man Randy Savage on their request- but Randy Savage has a better chance of fighting on Sunday than The Undertaker does. This diatribe didn't change Rowan's ability, as he got an Avalanche, then made Luke Harper tap to the Bearhug for the win. Backstage, Lana was flanked by the Funkadactyls and their respective clients, as she caught up with Eden Rhodes. Cameron said that it's bad enough she wants to be a traitor to these people, to put on that makeup and shuck and jive like that for Cody Rhodes- now she wants to fight a woman like Lana on Sunday at Survivor Series. Lana says that this is just more proof of her...idiocy. Lana cannot blame her- no person in America has the brains of a Vladimir Putin. Her client, Alexander Rusev, may be the second most dominant Russian man there is- but she is sure, if she makes it to the match, she will destroy all comers. As a Russian woman, she is stronger than even one thousand of the strongest American men. Eden Rhodes heard Lana talk, then said "then prove it"- as she tore into the Ravishing Russian and the two started clawing, being pulled off each other and trying to get a piece of each other. Bray Wyatt had a rematch between New Day leader J. Enterprise with the Intercontinental Title on the line. Wyatt had the Wyatt Family with him in full force, as the group attacked them- and AC Halliburton took the brunt of the attack by them as Wyatt took an advantage. Just then, however, Roman Reigns, Big E Langston, and Solomon Crowe were there for the save. The group decimated the Wyatt Family members, punishing them and allowing J. Enterprise to have a more even matchup. Superkick party follows, as Bray Wyatt teetered. A big splash finished it, as J. Enterprise got the win to be the new Intercontinental Champion. After the match, Enterprise celebrated as Roman Reigns and Big E put him on their shoulders- as Jimmy Uso headed out to the ring and saw his brother's success, glared, and walked off. Divas' action followed in the form of the first ever Divas' Title vs. Title match, as Divas' Champion Paige took on Cruiserweight Champion Charlotte. The two Divas tore into each other, using a number of vicious moves as the Evolution of Women's Wrestling took an advantage on the champion. Paige fought back, punishing Charlotte and trying to take out most of Charlotte's advantages. Paige took an advantage, trying to lock in the PTO- but Charlotte fought back. Before Charlotte could get out of the hold, however, Stephanie McMahon came to the ring and announced that the match had to be thrown out as a draw. See, since Stephanie McMahon is number one contender to the Divas' Title, that means Charlotte is NOT a valid contender due to being lower on the totem pole than Stephanie is- and since Stephanie refused to fight her, that means that Paige can't be considered a contender to Charlotte's title- why should a COWARD be given a shot at the Divas' Championship. This match does not count as a title defense, meaning on Monday, Paige must give Stephanie McMahon the Divas' Title for refusing to defend the title in 30 days. Charlotte tried protesting, as Stephanie said "Try me and I'll take YOUR belt too!" In the main event, two captains fought as John Cena took on Goldust. The increasingly desperate veteran tried to take the fight to Cena with everything he had, but Cena was taking all of his frustrations out on him and just destroyed Goldust with everything he had. This made things worse as Cody Rhodes was out there, mocking Goldust and saying at Survivor Series, he'll see once and for all he's the better brother. Goldust tried to get Cena for the Shattered Dreams, but Cena managed to get out of it, then get Goldust on his shoulders and hit an AA on Goldust to the ground. Cena then grabbed Goldust and hit the Spoiler Alert on him for 15 rotations, then another AA. Cena locked in the STF, and Goldust tapped immediately, trying to conserve strength for Sunday. Cena stood triumphant over Goldust- as Antonio Cesaro and Nikki Bella watched, and Nikki kissed Cesaro in front of Cena. Cesaro ended the show saying "Cena...we'll see you Sunday..." to him.

SURVIVOR SERIES, NOVEMBER 23:
The Survivor Series Pre-Show started off in a big way as the lights went off. The crowd's cell phones seemed to start- but then, the lights went up huge as Dennis Rodman came out to the ring in his Mavericks jersey and took the mic. "No, no, no, no. Dallas, I ASSURE you, they're HERE- but tonight we ain't doing nothing like no freaky crap up in here, this is MY ARENA! This is MY HOUSE! And if it wasn't for all the people of Texas being the most worthless, most capitalist pig-dogs in the entire United States of America, this would be MY CITY!" The crowd booed. "That's right, that's right, everyone in Texas gotta recognize now, baby. RODMAN SECOND WORLD TOUR is hitting all over Dallas tonight showing you the greatness of my main main, Kim Jong-Un! And maybe my big buddy,Alexander Rusev, and his magically delicious translator, Lana, got their own thing to do to take down all of the worthless Americans in the WWE here tonight on their way to a collision course with the biggest, most worthless American of them all, Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble, I got me a whole new team to work with tonight. So, if y'all can ignore that big capitalist pig Mark Cuban here, let's ignore the Mavericks so I can give y'all the world's REAL best starting five to join me here tonight! Now, I know all of you Texas pig men in this audience here tonight don't know nothing about helping the whole world- I know here in Dallas, "global warming" is seen as just some liberal plot to take your pickup truck, so none of you understand what you should REALLY be doing. This ain't just your world, and if you listened to a mind like Kim Jong-Un, you'd realize by now: From everyone to their ability...which isn't what any of you could do, To everyone to their needs- and y'all are all using WAY TOO MUCH. This man right here know how to tell you what you REALLY need- my man, C! J! PARKER! Now, I got on all the guys in this crowd, but I didn't get on the women yet...well, outside my time up giving this city the REAL definition of Big D, but that was years ago. All these over made-up, under-lookin' Dallas women who prove almost everything's bigger in Texas- the hair, the silicon, but sadly, not the BRAINS. If there was anything inside those heads of yours except for some air, you'd be going away from these two bit cowboys and seeing what a real nice guy is like instead of those. But, you don't wanna do that- that's what my boy right here is out to show you what you need- he ain't out here to hate you, it's all about ethics in professional wrestling- my man, the Returning King himself, DYNAMICSENSATION! And...well, last, but certainly not least- the player-coach, the player-CAPTAIN, of the most dominant starting five since...well, the SAN ANTONIO SPURS..." the crowd booed...", the men who bring this family to Bray Wyatt's orders- Quentin Marsh and our captain, LUKE HARPER!" The Team Players headed to the ring and waited for their opponents- as Erick Rowan's theme hit as Rowan and Ricky Slate headed down the ramp, El Torito on Colin Cassady's shoulders and motioning to the crowd. The four waited, as Rodman looked. "...uh, don't you know? This is a 5-on-5 match. My boys SAID you wasted your pick, but what could I expect from a big lamb-masked retard like Rowan! Well, it ain't no thang- this is elimination rules. Dreezy up in the Foot Locker suit over there, count this guy out..." Erick Rowan screamed "NAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAA" as they looked towards referee Drake Wuertz, who looked towards the entrance . "...give this guy something to stop whining. You wasted the pick..." Ricky Slate took the mic. "You'll excuse my friend here if you can't understand him- we can translate. He's saying, he's not sure how to do it anymore- Colin, cover his ears so he doesn't flip out when I say this, but... DALLAS... ...he's here." The lights went down as the fog started up... GONG... A series of Druids came down the ramp and surrounded the team. the fire started coming forth, as the crowd waited. Dennis Rodman waited... ...as The Undertaker showed up behind him. Chokeslam. Tombstone. PWN3D. 1- Dennis Rodman eliminated by The Undertaker Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate, The Undertaker vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation, Quentin Marsh, CJ Parker, The Lost Lambs vs. The Team Players As the match started up more as a 5-on-4 situation, The Undertaker tagged out Erick Rowan, giving him a chance to rest. Team Harper tried getting a new viewpoint, as Quentin Marsh brought an attack to Rowan. Marsh and Harper attacked each other, with Rowan bellowing. Rowan finally tagged out, going to El Torito. Quentin Marsh laughed at the baby bull- who proceeded to attack Marsh with a number of nice high flying attacks. El Torito got a Bullacanrana on Marsh, then hooked the legs and got a big three count as the crowd cheered. 2- Quentin Marsh eliminated by El Torito Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate, The Undertaker vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation, CJ Parker With his team suddenly on a 5-on-3 disadvantage, Luke Harper needed to take control and punish them. Harper threw El Torito around the ring like a ragdoll, punishing the baby bull. El Torito tried to get to his side- easier since Harper threw him around with reckless abandon. Colin Cassady got a tag, and Luke Harper suddenly had to pick on someone bigger than him. Harper got out of Dodge, tagging in CJ Parker. Parker had a bit of success against the opponent- but unfortunately, the most environmentally friendly WWE superstar of all of them hasn't kept up on his research for the proper ways to help save the environment. If Parker did, he would have clearly read recent articles showing the carbon footprint of various professional wrestlers employed for World Wrestling Entertainment put out by the esteemed environmental researchers at Green Mountain College, a highly ranking institution of the environmental liberal arts, which have made a impeccable conclusion that, yes, Colin Cassady is seven foot tall, and you can't teach 'dat. Chokeslam, Hippie go boom, and it's suddenly a 5-on-2. 3- CJ Parker eliminated by Colin Cassady Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate, The Undertaker vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation With the team being destroyed, quickly, by their opponents, Luke Harper suddenly came in and punished his opponent. Cassady tagged out to Ricky Slate, who punished Harper with some attacks. DynamicSensation called for the tag, as he started attacking. Ricky Slate stared down DynamicSensation as he tried to attack. Slate got taken down, and then DynamicSensation went for The Happening- but Slate rolled out of the way. This gave Slate time to make it to his corner, as he put his hand out to each person, getting cheers for each in turn- which became electric for The Undertaker. Ricky Slate tagged Undertaker in, as he began attacking DynamicSensation- but Luke Harper rushed into the ring and helped his teammate against the toughest. Undertaker was still a little weakened, not totally in it, as Luke Harper hit a big spinebuster on him. Luke Harper then helped DynamicSensation lift the Deadman up onto his shoulders and steadied him...followed by DynamicSensation dropping and hitting The Kingslayer on Undertaker as the crowd was in SHOCK. The pinfall was academic. 4- The Undertaker eliminated by DynamicSensation Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation DynamicSensation gloated in the middle of the ring. He said THIS is the proof of their power. No matter what the worthless hoeskis in the WWE Universe think, they'll just destroy all of the people you love until you have to accept the love of nice guys like him and Donny Sparkle. Even The Undertaker is no match for a Kingslayer- once nice guys become kings, they are unsto-and Ricky Slate just rolled him up like a chump for the three count. Why DO the evil guys always take that time to talk about their evil plans- it NEVER works out for them. 5- DynamicSensation gets eliminated by Ricky Slate Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation With a 4-on-1 situation, Luke Harper was suddenly the broken, scared Wyatt Family member he was. Without partners and seeing the situation, Harper merely tore into Ricky Slate with all he had inside him, punishing the hero with vicious power moves. Ricky Slate kept getting up, refusing to fall to the might of Harper- but he was too much for him. Sit-Out Powerbomb followed, and Luke Harper started to chop down his opponents. 6- Ricky Slate eliminated by Luke Harper Erick Rowan, Colin Cassady, El Torito, Ricky Slate vs. Luke Harper, DynamicSensation, CJ Parker El Torito cowered at Harper as a person chose to go in. Colin Cassady and Erick Rowan looked, as Rowan entered the ring and started destroying his former partner. A series of vicious strikes followed, as Erick Rowan was a man possessed. Luke Harper didn't have an answer as Rowan kept up the fight. Rowan locked on a Bearhug on Harper, who tried fighting out, but slowly lost his momentum. The referee motioned for his arm once, then twice, then Harper's arm fell a third time for the win. After the match, Rowan and Big Cass celebrated, El Torito jumping on the two big men's shoulders as they posed for the crowd. 7- Luke Harper eliminated by Erick Rowan- LOST LAMBS WIN CHAMPION OF CHAMPIONS MATCH: FACE SIDE: ERICK ROWAN, COLIN CASSADY, EL TORITO HEEL SIDE: N/A THE DRAGONSHIELD vs. THE VIPERS: As The Survivor Series started up, we had a huge match as The DragonShield came in through the crowd for their big match- to be matched up with The Vipers. The Vipers' teamwork didn't seem as big, as The DragonShield did two rock paper scissors games to decide who started...while Randy Orton pointed to Tyler Breeze and said "You, out there." Kalisto started against the supermodel, as the two put on a big fight to see who could get a lead on the other. Frequent tags by the Lucha Dragons helped keep things going, as Tyler Breeze tried to fight back on his teammates. Where Tyler Breeze didn't have a partner, he had a selfie stick, and Sin Cara had a skull. This was enough, as a selfie stick/Supermodel Kick followed and The Vipers drew first blood. 1- Sin Cara eliminated by Tyler Breeze Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Kalisto, Chris Jericho vs. Randy Orton, Connor O'Brian, Damien Sandow, Tyler Breeze, David Hart Smith This attack led to Rollins's team fighting more viciously. Dean Ambrose came in and started a big attack on Tyler Breeze, as Breeze tried to tag to Randy Orton. Orton refused the tag, as Breeze followed by taking on Damien Sandow. This was not a good indulgence to beg for the man: Dirty Deeds. Curb Stomp. Codebreaker. Salida Del Sol. 4-4. 2- Damien Sandow eliminated by Kalisto Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Kalisto, Chris Jericho vs. Randy Orton, Connor O'Brian Tyler Breeze, David Hart Smith Kalisto tagged out, getting Rollins back in as Orton ordered David Hart Smith into the match. Smith started to overpower the architect of the Shield, but Rollins's trust of his teammates helped him. However, Kalisto had been taking a lot of attacks, and Smith could overpower him more.

Orton made orders as Tyler Breeze tried to fight Rollins, who matched up with him well. The selfie stick came back into play- as the referee grabbed it. This was a big benefit for Rollins- but not really, as the distraction as the referee took it away allowed David Hart Smith and Connor O'Brian to hit the Fall of Man. Tyler Breeze covered, and the captain was gone. 5- Seth Rollins eliminated by Tyler Breeze Dean Ambrose vs. Randy Orton, Connor O'Brian, Tyler Breeze, David Hart Smith With a sudden 4-on-1 disadvantage, Dean Ambrose was almost doomed- but if there's one thing Ambrose could do, it's go down swinging.

Kidd tried to tag- but Legacy wanted nothing to do with the Big Show, and Kidd wanted nothing to do with putting his wife in- which made Alex Riley the poor bastard person to be tagged in.

They looked towards Goldust to go in, but Goldust ordered one of the two in to rest up. Big Show finally shrugged and went in, giving Natalya a chance to walk out. When Natalya refused, Big Show hit an Irish whip with enough authority to send her out of the ring- but Tyson Kidd tagged Natalya's back. Big Show said "take the countout!" towards Natalya- then turned around into a springboard elbow drop by Tyson Kidd, knocking him down.Kidd tried for dear life to get a pinfall, holding the giant down for the three count. 5- Big Show eliminated by Tyson Kidd Goldust, Fandango vs. Cody Rhodes, Tyson Kidd, Natalya Tyson Kidd celebrated, heading to the top rope and celebrated- but that led to Goldust hitting a Shattered Dreams on him.

Fandango went to Natalya, and put his hand out towards her, as she agreed. The two started a short dance in the ring, finishing with Fandango dipping her, and dipping her longer, finally taking her down in the dip and hooking the leg for as gentle a pinfall as possible. 7- Natalya eliminated by Fandango Goldust, Fandango vs. Cody Rhodes Down to a 2-1 disadvantage, Cody Rhodes got the attack.

I thought Lana had the right idea when she was picking my boys for Rusev, but THIS ONE? She can't pick a great wrestler, a great sister, someone who could really help this team?

Spoiler Alert for 10 rotations, AA, and Roman Reigns finally got taken down. 11- Roman Reigns eliminated by John Cena
Colin Cassady, El Torito, Goldust, Adrian Neville, Paige vs. Jimmy Uso, John Cena, Zack Ryder, Bull Dempsey With the Face team dwindling, Bull Dempsey came in the ring as El Torito headed in. Dempsey punished the baby bull, as Goldust started to help him out in the attack. The referee tried calling Goldust to make the attack, but that was enough so El Torito could tag in his big buddy of Colin Cassady. Cassady was big, and took the monster Dempsey up for a big chokeslam...but unfortunately, Bull Dempsey had some brass knuckles hidden in his tights, and you can't teach DAT Either. Cassady fell down, went boom, and Bull Dempsey had a big victory. 12- Colin Cassady eliminated by Bull Dempsey
El Torito, Goldust, Adrian Neville, Paige vs. Jimmy Uso, John Cena, Zack Ryder, Bull Dempsey With the match down to a 4 on 4 match, Adrian Neville got into the ring and Jimmy Uso came out to make his attack. Jimmy Uso started matching most of Neville's attempts, working his legs and trying to keep him away from the top rope. Superkick party followed, as Jimmy Uso took the advantage. Samoan Drop got hit, and Adrian Neville was eliminated as the face team looked worried. 13- Adrian Neville eliminated by Jimmy Uso El Torito, Goldust, Paige vs. Jimmy Uso, John Cena, Zack Ryder, Bull Dempsey With the team falling, El Torito headed in as Jimmy Uso tagged in Zack Ryder. Goldust, however, was unwilling to let this chance go, and Goldust began to attack Ryder. El Torito Irish whipped Ryder into a referee, which allowed Goldust to attack Ryder. Ryder hit a Shattered Dreams, then a Final Cut on him. The referee started to come to, as El Torito hit a Moonsault on Ryder to get the pinfall. 14- Zack Ryder eliminated by El Torito El Torito, Goldust, Paige vs. Jimmy Uso, John Cena, Bull Dempsey The heels brought Bull Dempsey in the match, as Goldust screamed for the tag from El Torito, and got it. Goldust started attacking Dempsey ruthlessly, then got him to the outside. Goldust slammed Dempsey's head on the steel steps for a ten count, then hit a Final Cut on him to the floor. This was enough for the dominant monster to be handled, as the referee counted ten and took him out. 15- Bull Dempsey counted out by Goldust beating El Torito, Goldust, Paige vs. Jimmy Uso, John Cena
If you could call it a 3 on 2 advantage considering the teams, it was. Paige tagged in to Jimmy Uso, who tried to refuse to fight her- but Paige brought the fight to him, attacking him with vicious moves. Paige tagged to El Torito, who hit a big Bullacanrana, followed by Goldust, who hit a Shattered Dreams. Paige tagged back in and hit the Ram-Paige, putting Jimmy Uso out of the match. 16- Jimmy Uso eliminated by Paige El Torito, Goldust, Paige vs. John Cena The 3 on 1 advantage made the faces get a big advantage...well, except for the fact it was John Cena they were going up against. El Torito tried to hit a Bullcanrana, but John Cena hit a big powerbomb on him. El Torito, groggy, tagged to Paige, who tried to hit the Ram-Paige, only for Cena to easily reverse out and hit an AA on her. Paige tagged into Goldust, who tried for an all-or-nothing attack, holding his teammates back and trying to keep them out as Goldust fought Cena- knowing if he loses, Cena will eventually win. Goldust kept fighting Cena, putting a number of vicious attacks. Cena got Goldust down, then went for the STF- but Goldust fought hard, finally making the ropes. Cena tried signalling for the kill and went for the Spoiler Alert- but Goldust reversed it to a crucifix and got the pinfall for the win for his team! 17- John Cena eliminated by Goldust - FACE TEAM WINS The crowd gave a cheer as John Cena was knocked out. "Ladies and Gentlemen, it is now time for the SOLE SURVIVOR MATCH!" The crowd looked at the three competitors...as the three people left in the ring looked at each other. "Oh...my...God." "My God nothing, Maggle! Goldust's a 19 year veteran! Goldust's the Bizarre One! He's the Master of Mindgames...and he's just pulled off the most important mindgame of his life!" SOLE SURVIVOR MATCH: Goldust vs. El Torito vs. Paige Goldust looked at the mini El Torito and the Diva Paige, and simply did his taunt. El Torito shook his head, as all Paige could do was clap at how beautiful that plan was. All of the work Goldust had done to protect the two of them, all of the plans in the Champion of Champions match, all had been built up to this exact moment. El Torito and Paige were the only two people standing against Goldust in the Sole Survivor match- and even if they would stand a chance at 100%, both were so beaten down by their two matches that at this moment, they didn't have a prayer. Goldust set both of the two up for the Shattered Dreams, then kicked both down, and got an easy pinfall on El Torito to quickly end the suffering and give himself the victory. SOLE SURVIVOR: GOLDUST Goldust helped his opponents up, then shook their hands as both took the handshake... "The mindgame is finished! Goldust is the Sole Survivor! Goldust just earned a title shot against Brock Lesnar at the Royal Rumble!" "Oh, wah wah wah, Maggle. Don't you remember Goldust's vow! He CAN'T have that title shot! It happens in January, that's 2015! If Goldust gets this title shot against Brock Lesnar, he'd have to wait until 2015 to cash it in- and then he's a 20-year veteran without holding the WWE World Heavyweight Championship! He vowed to retire on December 31! He gets nothing!" "Well, he has a title shot coming to him at the Royal Rumble- no one could blame Goldust for waiting one more month before retirement..." "I know Goldust well, and he is a man of his word- he has to live up to it now! He's got to retire December 31- he's just given Brock Lesnar the night off at the Royal Rumble!" The crowd was electric as Triple H came to the ring, Stephanie McMahon by his side, as he went for the fight of his professional life, his power at ringside. The crowd gave a big cheer as Hideo Itami headed to the ring, his investors in Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Dennis Haskins at his side. Before the match, Shawn Michaels took the mic. "Now, Hunter, Hunter. Before you start this match- I wanted you to know. Even though we said he had four investors, and there's only three of us- I wanted you to know. Our fourth investor's running a little late, but he's HERE, and he's READY." Triple H laughed, then told Itami to get in here. Hideo Itami entered the ring, and Triple H made a cheap shot. Triple H took an early advantage on Itami, punishing him with a series of vicious assaults. Triple H used a number of knee strikes to take Itami down, punishing the Japanese standout and trying to beat him at his own game. Flair and Shawn tried getting Itami to attack, but Triple H was too much for them. Triple H gloated, saying "is this all you've got?"- only for Itami to kick Triple H in the head for a 2 count. Hideo Itami started the attack, trying to fight Triple H with all the kick in his style. Triple H stopped it with a knee lift, then went for the Pedigree, but Itami reversed it to a backdrop. Dennis Haskins tried to attack, but Triple H was right there. KICK WHAM PEDIGREE, and Haskins was out. Paramedics took him out, but this gave Itami a chance to hit a Busaiku Kick for 2. Triple H fought more viciously, fighting Itami with everything he had in him. Pedigree connects this time- and that was enough for Ric Flair to come in and attack Triple H. A Figure-Four Leglock is locked in as Triple H was screaming, but since Triple H wasn't fighting Flair, any tapout was worthless- as was Flair dealing with the tapout. Stephanie McMahon demanded that referee Drake Wuertz DQ Itami, but he called a five count as Flair broke the hold. The referee sent Flair back to the dressing room, but the distraction gave Itami enough time to kick out at 2. Triple H was furious, as he tried to fight Itami, who kept fighting back, kicking at Triple H. Triple H grabbed his leg, then clotheslined Itami and had the advantage. Triple H went for the Pedigree- but Shawn Michaels was tuning up the band, allowing Itami a chance to get out. Hideo Itami went for the Go 2 Sleep, but Triple H kicked out of that move at 1, then made a mocking 'X' before fake-wincing and saying "Oww, my widdle bum-bum!" to the crowd's boos. This mockery gave Itami more of a chance to punish Triple H with kicks. Triple H hit another Pedigree on Hideo Itami, just as Shawn Michaels hit Sweet Chin Music on Triple H to send him down. The referee sent him away, as Stephanie McMahon looked at them, and Stephanie kicked at Hideo Itami. "HA! Do you see what happens? McMahons always win! It doesn't matter if it's Ric Flair, if it's Shawn Michaels, whoever it is- I ALWAYS WIN, so Triple H ALWAYS WINS. You lost, Itami! Go back to Japan where you belong! You'll never get the power- we ALWAYS WIN! Who else could you have as an investor, huh? IT doesn't matter- YOU LOST!" Just then, the lights went down.... ...as a video of all the people in Triple H's graveyard, combined with all the people Stephanie McMahon had beaten in her Women's Title reigns and all of those problems, showed up over and over. A video aired: "The sins of the past...will be paid for...
...by the present." Dennis Haskins's voice said "...sorry about that...it's not THAT one. ... It's HIM." Just then, the screen went haywire with footage the previous video... ...as "Flight of the Valkyries" played. Did the crowd go wild? YES. Did the crowd explode? YES. Did the fourth Investor arrive? YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES. YES.YES. YES. YES. YES. When the lights came back on, Daniel Bryan was standing on the other side of the ring. Bryan and Hideo Itami hit a double Knee Plus/Busaiku Knee Kick on Triple H, taking him out. The three count was academic, as Triple H lost his power. The show ended as Daniel Bryan and Hideo Itami celebrated their victory- followed out by Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Dennis Haskins- followed as the entire face locker room emptied to celebrate the defeat of Triple H. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon looked at the celebration of faces shouting YES! alongside the crowd, too enraged to say anything. The show ended with the celebration of the crowd- Daniel Bryan is back, and he picked the best time TO come back for good. (82)

RAW, November 24. If the celebration ended Survivor Series, it didn't seem to end the whole day- as Hideo Itami headed to the ring- as the crowd cheered his investors, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, Dennis Haskins, and the man who finally helped end Triple H's power for good- Daniel Bryan, making his return to Raw as the crowd cheered. Daniel Bryan took the mic and said that for 15 months, The Authority have been using the name 'Best for Business' to deny the fans what they wanted. The Authority forgot who made the WWE great wasn't any of us- it was all of you in the WWE Universe. Last night, a man he's proud to call his good friend, one of the people who he looks at as a textbook to help make him that much better, Hideo Itami, did what every person in the WWE wanted- he took Triple H's power. Triple H forgot about the fans in favor of the almighty dollar- he learned the worst from his family, the McMahons. Daniel Bryan, though- he's never cared about money. He's made money- but to him, it doesn't matter- he has the life he wants already. To him, once you're truly satisfied with your life, money becomes just some pieces of paper. But even when he was injured, he never forgot the fans, he never forgot the YES! Movement that got him this far, and he never stopped keeping his eye on The Authority. And he'll admit right now, he's not really close to being 100% in the ring yet- but Daniel Bryan, the WWE Superstar, didn't come out last night to help Hideo Itami. Daniel Bryan, the man, looked at the money he had, and he realized- If the people he respects the most- his original trainer, Shawn Michaels, the greatest of all time, Ric Flair...and he'll admit he was watching "Saved by the Bell" too, Dennis- would invest in Hideo Itami, put all their money into betting that Hideo Itami would beat Triple H, their own protege, the man they taught everything they knew...then shouldn't Daniel Bryan, the man who hates The Authority more than anyone else in the WWE, put all the money he doesn't need to be happy on a man who Daniel Bryan believes is one of the greatest performers throughout the world, a man he respects beyond compare, as well? Daniel Bryan didn't need to be told twice. He gave Hideo Itami the money to help him. And now, at long last, Triple H's power is gone. The Authority is finally dead for good! YES! YES! YES! The crowd chanted YES! along with the men in the ring, as Stephanie McMahon and Triple H came to the ring. Triple H clapped, as he said...congratulations. You just killed this business for good. You took Triple H's power- but people thought YOU FIVE knew what's best for business, and they'll find out they were DEAD WRONG in time. But as a great wrestler who became a better businessman, to some wrestlers who WANT to be businessmen now, Triple H has some advice for you. Run and hide. You have the conch shell now- and soon, you'll realize that Triple H had far more things to deal with than just putting on the best show possible. If you give these people what they want, whenever they want, exactly when they want it, then you'll go bankrupt- and then these fans will just turn on it anyway just because they don't really know what they want, just that they'll always want Someone or Something Else. Stephanie McMahon took the mic and said, while you took this, the contract said it...you probably shouldn't have let the Japanese guy handle the contract. When he said- he took Triple H's Power, he GOT Triple H's power, not THE AUTHORITY'S power. As such, Stephanie is ready to say that you have all your power. As of right now, Hideo Itami and his investors are the brand new owners and proprietors of the NXT brand. You got half our TV contracts- Main Event and Superstars are officially no more. Starting Wednesday Night with NXT Takeover, NXT will receive two hours on the WWE Network and all around the world. Triple H is NO LONGER in any position of power in the WWE- but Stephanie McMahon STILL IS. And, as per the rules said in the contract- starting right now, and going for the next 48 hours until the end of NXT Takeover on Wednesday, every WWE and NXT Superstar is officially a free agent, able to be transferred to whichever brand they choose for the next two days. Triple H looked at Stephanie McMahon, and said "I have no power, I'm just a performer again?" Stephanie said "Yes- you are no longer in power." Triple H smiled and said- then I'm becoming the first person to defect to NXT. Triple H clocked Daniel Bryan, then wrenched his injured neck. Triple H finished by saying "I WILL get my power back from you. And if you are still happy about all of this? Careful what you wish for- you just might get it." The show started with a big United States Title defense, as the Hart Dynasty were waiting in the ring with no entrance for Tyson Kidd's United States Title shot. This brought Adrian Neville to the ring, who looked a little dazed and out of it as he headed to the ring. Neville was a little loose, as Tyson Kidd bottlefed him into more of a mat wrestling match than Neville was used to. Neville tried to fight back, and went to the top rope for the Red Arrow, but David Hart Smith hit the ropes, allowing Kidd to lock the Dungeon Lock in. Neville tapped out, as the crowd was in shock for a big upset. Tyson Kidd held up his New United States Championship as the crowd was in shock at the win. {Spoiler} 3 Man Bullet were walking to the ring, as Finn Balor glared at Tyson Kidd carrying the United States Title. Stephanie McMahon said that Tyson Kidd's victory was great- but unfortunately, Finn Balor can only get his belt back if he stays with the WWE and chooses not to go to NXT. And what about Ariel- she's worked so hard, and lost so much weight, to get back to WWE- and she's sure a talent like her could be a future Divas' Champion easier than having to wrestle people from "Jersey Shore" on NXT. Finn Balor and Ariel looked, then agreed to sign with WWE, then turned to Jimmy Yang...who shrugged and said "Actually, I talked with Ric Flair earlier today...I like their options. I'm going to NXT." Finn Balor saw the problem from his alleged 'bandmate'...in the form of punching him out, then saying to Ariel 'we don't need him anyway." Following the completely unexpected upset victory of the United States Champion, two of the previous United States Champions, Finn Balor and Bo Dallas, took each other on in the ring. The beating seemed to work, as Bo Dallas replaced his Bo-Lievers, dropping like flies, with various brainwashed Rosebuds at his side. Bo Dallas managed to take an advantage- but before he could, two big men (one easily recognizable to WWE fans as Luke Gallows, the other recognizable to NXT fans as Karl Anderson) jumped Bo Dallas and laid waste to him. Alex Riley tried to help, but got a 12th Step from Gallows for his problems. Finn Balor easily got the pinfall, then turned to these men. Calling them Luke Gallows and Anderson Duke, he put up a Too Sweet sign, as the two, and Ariel, returned it. It looks like Finn Balor traded up! {Spoiler}Bo Dallas and Alex Riley were still laid out as Bo-Lievers tried picking them up. Elijah Burke turned to the men, and said "YOU LIED! YOU'RE NO FALSE PROPHET!" Burke said "I'm not following you any longer...I'm defecting to NXT! I'm going to be my own man once again!" as Bo Dallas...well, was too slumped over to go through. In Divas' action, the Divas' Championship Committee got a shot at the Divas' Champion at the moment, as Paige took on Eva Marie. Before the match, Eva Marie said that, since Stephanie McMahon is the number one contender and Eva Marie doesn't deserve a shot over a woman like her, this is a non-title match. ...which didn't matter to Paige, as the match was: Kick, Eva falls. PTO. PWN3D. After the match, Paige celebrated- as Stephanie McMahon came to the ring and announced that, unfortunately, it's been 30 days- and since Stephanie McMahon refused to fight Paige for the title, Paige has not defended the belt against the rightful number one contender. Stephanie thought better of Paige, but I guess just being a fluke champion is proof Paige is a COWARD. She wouldn't fight the number one contender, proving that she, like any person in the WWE- indeed, in the world, is AFRAID of Stephanie McMahon- and as a result, she gets what any other cowardly champion would get, as it's time for Paige to be stripped of the Divas' title and have it awarded to Stephanie McMahon. Eva Marie took the title from Paige, and was about to hand it to Stephanie... ...but Daniel Bryan showed up first. Bryan said that he can't let this go on- this is a travesty. Stephanie's the one who refused to fight, as Stephanie said "I just used the rulebook to its advantage. The rulebook makes it clear- You can't blame me for not fighting Paige, you have to blame Paige for not fighting ME!". Daniel Bryan said he can't let this farce happen, and Stephanie said "Oh yeah? You only have power over NXT, not the WWE." Bryan said "I know. But SHE does." Linda McMahon came out to the ring, and said that unfortunately, Stephanie didn't see the other part of that rule. Yes, Paige has to defend her Divas' Title within 30 days or be stripped of the title...but if Stephanie READ the rulebook, she'd know- if the number one contender REFUSES a title shot with the champion, then they instantly forfeit their number one contendership. Stephanie McMahon ceased to be number one contender the moment she refused to fight Paige weeks ago. Stephanie demanded to see the rule, as Paige took her title belt back- as Linda McMahon showed her the rulebook, as Stephanie looked, was slightly rattled...then smiled.. Stephanie then said, What. Because it's legally binding, you expect me to cower to it? You forget something, Mom. The second Triple H lost his power, I technically control ALL of the WWE. I decide what goes and what doesn't. So, it's fine. I can't strip Paige of the title and award it to myself this way. Paige did nothing to lose the title in the rulebook, so I won't strip her of the title for breaking this rule. Stephanie smirked and said "Instead? Paige, I'm hereby stripping you of the Divas Title JUST BECAUSE I CAN!" Stephanie McMahon took the Divas' Title back and took it backstage as the crowd booed. Cody Rhodes was in action as he took on the World's Largest Athlete, The Big Show. Big Show was accompanied by his protege, Colin Cassady, as he tried to stem the tide of Mr. Money in the Bank. Cody attacked Big Show, never really being out of the mix as be punished the giant, however. A quick CrossRhodes followed, and Cody Rhodes had a victory. John Cena came out to the ring to a chorus of boos alongside Nikki Bella, as Cena said last night was the greatest night of his career- how about it how Goldust got the best Last Stand possible? The crowd gave a mixed reaction, as John Cena said what was more important than that, you saw the victory of how love conquers all in the WWE, and in life. Cena talked about how he knew that for years, everybody knew Nikki Bella was his girlfriend- between the rumors and TMZ, he never denied it- but he kept his personal life separate from his professional life, which was his prerogative. He didn't do it for him- he did it for all of you. He did it because women are the fastest growing demographic for the WWE Universe- and he knows for a fact that every woman in this audience is only here because they think that John Cena will come into that crowd and be the Prince Charming they've waited for, taking them from the worthless sack of crap they came with and show them what the good life is like. The crowd booed as Cena said it's fine. I know you guys out there are looking at that woman you're with, and wishing SHE was Nikki Bella just as much- if you weren't all wishing it was me too- as the crowd booed louder. Cena continued by saying he could keep that secret, but he did it for the fans. He let their fantasies not get in the way of dirty reality. But Antonio Cesaro- he couldn't just let you have your little fantasies, he had to ruin it for all of you. HE brought Nikki Bella onto his team, HE made it a plot point we were dating, and HE cost all of the WWE Universe their favorite thing to dream about. But John Cena is the Dreamsaver. At Survivor Series, he and Nikki Bella teamed up, and they DESTROYED Antonio Cesaro, DESTROYED The Rock, and saved the WWE Universe from his taking what the people want! Nikki Bella took the mic, and said the first thing she wanted to say to Antonio Cesaro was...she's sorry. She's SORRY that some loser crybaby traitor like Antonio Cesaro could think that just because a woman kisses him once, suddenly she's in love with him. That's your own fault for no woman ever wanting anything to do with you. She also wanted to apologize to all the girls out there. All night, Nikki heard- why, Nikki, why? You saw all the things John Cena did to you the last two weeks- and you went back to him? Nikki apologizes to the girls who thought she did wrong, but they'll understand when they get older. Nikki Bella knows about all the things Cena did to her. Cena emotionally abused her for two weeks over her being drafted by Antonio Cesaro, and it was terrible. Nikki Bella had one thing to remember when this happened and it was at its worst for her...She's NIKKI BELLA. She's the star of "Total Divas", one of the biggest hit shows on E! Television. She's as big an icon as Kim Kardashian right now. She's one of the genuine faces of the WWE- she's a genuine megastar. EVERY woman in the world wishes they were HER right now. And she can point it to one thing that opened all these doors for her- she's dating John Cena, the face of the WWE, the biggest star in this industry today. Cena has done some problems- but in any relationship, you ask yourself, Am I better off with him or without him? Nikki Bella finished by saying, "Maybe I'm better off without Cena, but I'm FAR better off knowing that every one of you peasants WISH you were ME right now." Nikki Bella and John Cena vigorously made out to the crowd's boos as the show went to break. {Spoiler}Brie Bella was watching that promo, and shook her head. Brie said..."I never thought my sister was like that. I thought she was a kind person, but doing things like this, I don't know." Daniel Bryan came on the screen and hugged her, and said "That's fine. She's still your sister- you can deal with it." Brie agreed, then said "At least I won't have to deal with her anymore...you knew the second you agreed to this I would defect to NXT to be with you." Daniel Bryan and Brie Bella kissed as the shot ended.. In what was billed as an NXT preview matchup, NXT's new owner and proprietor Hideo Itami took on the NXT Champion, the Hype Man Mojo Rawley. The always hyped, always obnoxious Rawley was dominant as the NXT Champion, and was able to take it to his new boss with a relentless assault. Itami tried getting out of the gates, but the buzz from last night's win over Triple H wore off on the international sensation. Whether Triple H took too much out of him or not, the fact is Mojo Rawley managed to hit the Hyperdrive on Itami for the shocking upset. After the match, Mojo Rawley held up his NXT Championship... ...then threw it down on Itami's beaten body. Mojo claimed that he's too big, too bad, and too dominant for NXT- he wants in with the big boys here in the WWE. He's defected to WWE, and he'd rather wrestle for people who know Mojo Rawley is ALWAYS best for business. Itami can take that title and give it to whoever you want- Itami's ready for bigger and better things. The WWE is ready to get Hyped. The main event started as Goldust headed to the ring to the crowd's cheers. Goldust said he never thought he'd be sitting here, in the main event of Raw getting ready for this- but after nearly 20 years, he's about to stand triumphant. Last night, Goldust's Last Stand did better than he could ever hope it would, and now Goldust is the Sole Survivor at Survivor Series. 70 of the best men and women in the WWE went into the Survivor Series- but he was the last man standing. And now, Goldust has finally reached the heights of his career- his moment is nigh and he has his last, best chance to be the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. At the Royal Rumble, Goldust has earned his opportunity to take on Brock Lesnar for the championship. It's been 20 long years- there's been ups, downs, and everything in between, but at long last it's about time to be Goldust's moment, the moment he waited for all this time. Goldust is finally the number one contender, and he has no intents of letting this chance walk away... ...and that was all it took as Paul Heyman and his allies Curtis Axel and Connor O'Brian headed to the ring, Paul Heyman carrying the replica WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Paul Heyman wanted to congratulate Goldust on his Last Stand last night. Paul Heyman's known Goldust longer than the WWE Universe knew him- he was a Natural for 25 years, Bizarre for 20, and great all this time. Indeed, there were times Heyman wanted him to be a Paul Heyman Guy. And now, at long last, Paul Heyman wants to thank Goldust for his last stand. Goldust may be retiring, but he's made it easier for his client, Brock Lesnar, to retire as the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. You see- Goldust said it when the Survivor Series started. It's Goldust's Last Stand for a reason- Goldust was mathematically eliminated from beating his client, Brock Lesnar. Goldust has went through 69 other men and women to get to this point, but it was all for nothing- because the Royal Rumble is in January 2015. The Royal Rumble, Goldust's shot at my client, Brock Lesnar, is in his 20th year as a WWE Superstar. Even if Goldust gets his shot on January 25, 2015, he's still LASTED 20 years without being a World Champion. Goldust swore to these fans that he would not be a 20 year veteran with no World Championships to his name- if he wasn't the WWE World Heavyweight Champion by December 31, then he vowed to retire. Last night was a beautiful Last Stand, it's the greatest exclamation point of an amazing career- but it's just that- an EXCLAMATION POINT, because you don't get to have your WWE Title shot since it's in 2015. And speaking as someone who admired your work for so long, I am happy you don't get this shot. After 19 years, walking away as the number one contender to the WWE World Heavyweight Championship is the honor you deserve. I admire your work, and I don't WANT my client, Brock Lesnar, to destroy you. My client, Brock Lesnar, has been given a great gift- a day off at the Royal Rumble, since he can't have a title defense against a retired man. Where you will retire with the best you could ever do being runner-up, My client, Brock Lesnar, has the chance to retire as WWE World Heavyweight Champion and solidify his greatness. You see, My client, Brock Lesnar, is the greatest fighter in the world. My client, Brock Lesnar, doesn't need mindgames like you did, he'll just beat you, and do it in the style you're best at just so you KNOW how great he is. My client, Brock Lesnar, on his worst day is better than the best in the world on his BEST day. My client, Brock Lesnar, can phone in every match he has and STILL be better than anyone else when they're giving everything they have to defeat him. My client, Brock Lesnar, doesn't have to fight you now. My client, Brock Lesnar, was the first man to cash in Money in the Bank before the match and succeed! My client, Brock Lesnar, broke the Undertaker's Streak at Wrestlemania! My client, Brock Lesnar... ...and from the instant the first guitar riff started, the fans really knew... Paul Heyman's Client, Brock Lesnar...WAS IN THE ARENA. Brock Lesnar came out to the ring, the WWE World Heavyweight Championship in his hand, as Paul Heyman was in shock. Heyman kept going about Lesnar's greatness, only for Lesnar to say "Hold on, Paul, I can talk for myself tonight!" Brock Lesnar took the mic, and congratulated Goldust for his win the night before. Lesnar said that his manager, Paul Heyman, can tell everyone what a beast Brock Lesnar is, can tell the world how dominant Brock Lesnar is- but the reason Brock Lesnar is so dominant isn't because of his words, it's not because of his mind games- it's because he BEATS EVERY CHALLENGER who faces him. He IS the most dominant force in this industry, he IS a demigod, not because he talks about how he is, because he has never backed down from a challenge in his life. He doesn't intend to start now- if there's even one person who's earned a shot at Brock Lesnar that he hasn't conquered, then that's one person who is living proof Brock Lesnar ISN'T the most dominant force in the world today- and that's the one thing he WON'T deal with. Lesnar turned to Heyman and asked, "Is there any required dates in my contract- am I FORCED to defend at the Royal Rumble?" Heyman said "Well, no...." Lesnar turned to Goldust and said "You serious about retiring if you can't win the title by December 31?" Goldust nodded and said "Yes." Brock Lesnar then shook Goldust's hand and said, "It's all the same money to me then." To Goldust, fighting Brock Lesnar is the culmination of 19 years in the WWE, 24 years as a professional wrestler, all leading up to this moment. To Brock Lesnar- it's the difference between having some money for his kids' Christmas presents or getting that same money in January- it makes no difference when Lesnar beats Goldust to him. That's why he came out to say- if Goldust is serious about retiring at the end of 2014 WHEN he can't win the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, then Brock Lesnar is willing to accommodate his schedule to face him- he'll give Goldust his WWE World Heavyweight Title shot at Tables, Ladders, and Chairs in December instead! The crowd cheered as Paul Heyman stammered, Lesnar looking sure of himself. Goldust turned to Lesnar and tried to make one more request of Lesnar. Goldust said that there are some stipulations there, and they deserve a big stipulation to make it work. Goldust would like to decide the stipulation of their match. Lesnar agreed and offered the chance for Goldust to wait on it, but Goldust said "I already decided." Goldust has been fantasizing about his gameplan since Night of Champions if he got a one-on-one match with Brock Lesnar. Brock Lesnar is the most dominant force in the WWE today. Goldust didn't get here by being stupid- Goldust knows giving a fighter like Brock Lesnar a steel chair to beat him with would be tantamount to committing suicide. Goldust knows he wouldn't stand a chance at beating you in a Chairs match. Goldust knows that when Brock Lesnar won Money in the Bank, he did so by beating everyone to an inch of their lives and merely crawling up the ladder. Goldust isn't 100% sure he could beat Lesnar in that match either. However, of the four matches...there is one thing Goldust IS sure of...you don't have to be an NCAA champion or a UFC champion to throw someone through a table- half of ECW could barely wrestle and they did nothing but that. That's why Goldust has already made his challenge- he wants their title match to be a TABLES MATCH. When Goldust goes into the ring with you at the TLC Pay-Per-View, Goldust is effectively putting his career on the line against your WWE World Heavyweight Championship. And if that's the case- he wouldn't bet on beating Brock Lesnar with a chair, he wouldn't bet on climbing a ladder before Brock Lesnar can...but Goldust is willing to stake his career on the fact that he can put Brock Lesnar through a table. Brock Lesnar looked at Paul Heyman, who said "Why deny a condemned man his dying wish?", as Lesnar shook his hand, and the TLC Pay-Per-View got started with a bang!

NXT TAKEOVER, NOVEMBER 26: NXT Takeover began in a big way, as the YES! chants happened as the crowd cheered Hideo Itami, Daniel Bryan, Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Dennis Haskins. Ric Flair took the mic and officially welcomed the fans to NXT's new era. They made a number of big signings, and lost a equally big one as Mojo Rawley, the NXT World Champion, chose to go to Raw instead of join them. However, tonight the story changes, as they see the new era. This era will be everything fans want for the new era of NXT. The best stars of the current era, the best stars trying to make a return to the ring, and the best stars of tomorrow getting their start to eventually become as great as Ric Flair, Shawn Michaels, and Daniel Bryan. This brought out Triple H, who headed down the ramp and asked- is that it? So, your big plan to make a new era, is to do everything Triple H has already done. That's great- the fans here in NXT knew all along what Triple H was doing for them was Best for Business, and if that's all you have planned to do things, it'll be too easy to take the power. Here's the thing, Daniel- once upon a time, Triple H thought all you have to do to make fans happy was do exactly what they wanted. The fans wanted guys like CM Punk, he gave them CM Punk, they want guys like Zack Ryder, he gives them Zack Ryder...and yes, once the fans wanted Daniel Bryan, so he gave them Daniel Bryan. But then, he learned making friends doesn't make good business. He learned that once you give these fans what they want, they aren't grateful to you, they don't accept things if you have to ask them to accept something you want instead of them...they just demand more, and more, and more- and even if they want something, they'll just turn on it just to be contrarian. Triple H tried giving the WWE Universe what they wanted the most, and all he found is that what the WWE Universe wants more than anything is having something to complain about. It happened to him- and finally, when Triple H realized it, he decided to dismiss the WWE Universe once and for all. Just like when Stephanie McMahon stripped Paige of the Divas' Championship because she could on Monday night- the crowd cried and whined. You should have seen Twitter say how dare she...but those fans got just what they want- they got something to complain about. What's best for The Authority isn't what's best for business because it's Best For Business. What's best for The Authority is Best for Business because it gives every member of the WWE Universe something to bitch and moan and whine and complain about- and THAT gives them the thing they truly want. The only way to succeed in business isn't for Daniel Bryan to give the fans what they want and see that it doesn't matter, it's for Daniel Bryan to become what he hates and turn his back on them for the greater good. Daniel Bryan says that's where you're wrong- the fans can be happy and NXT can prosper, and WWE will see that firsthand. Triple H smiled and said "that's great- but I already know the fans don't get what they want right now...with my client, that I, NOT YOU, brought to NXT!" Ric Flair asked how- just as Randy Orton rushed through the crowd wearing an NXT shirt. RKO to Ric Flair, RKO to Shawn Michaels, RKO to Dennis Haskins, RKO to Hideo Itami, and an RKO, then a Punt to Daniel Bryan to finish it off. Triple H stood above them and said "Enjoy it- NXT's going to be mine again eventually!" The first NXT Takeover match started, as NXT team The Wolfpack headed to the ring for a big matchup (with the crowd surprised as Joe Brody of the team was apparently renamed to Brody Broseph). The two waited for their opponents- as NXT fans heard exactly what was meant by older stars getting another chance to make the big time, as former WCW standout Crowbar and his old ally-turned-enemy, Ozz Hudson, headed out as the team's opponents. The former WCW Hardcore Champion and his apparent clone tried to fight back- but here we saw that perhaps the new era had its own advantages. Broseph hit an Elbow Drop on Ozz Hudson, while Vinny Saggs hit a flying Crossbody on Crowbar, and The Wolfpack pinned them both at the same time for the big victory. The two celebrated as Crowbar and Hudson glared at the two in the ring. NXT saw another big return that more WWE fans recognized, as former World Tag Team Champion Trevor Murdoch made his triumphant return to the WWE Universe...okay...maybe not triumphant, once Bull Dempsey made his return fresh off his Survivor Series coming-out party. Dempsey destroyed Murdoch, getting a quick Powerbomb for an easy victory. Six-Diva Tag action was in play, as Snooki, J-Woww, and Carmella headed to the ring. Snooki claimed that these fans didn't know what they were talking about actually cheering those Aussie skanks JL McKay and Sheila (as the crowd chanted "THAT'S NOT THEIR NAMES!"- apparently the Full Sail crowd is smart enough to understand talent over celebrity, but not enough to understand copyright regulations, are they?) over her- and if she really wanted her title back, it's too bad- since the NXT Women's Title looks too good with her club outfit, she'll just beat them down and not defend it. This brought out the former Jessie McKay and Madison Eagles, as they said they wouldn't fight three cheating bitches like that without backup. J-Woww asked who'd want to team up with you two...as the crowd cheered a familiar theme and more familiar bubble display- Emma was back, and apparently defected to NXT to boot. This led to tag team action, as the Australian contingent destroyed the...contingent from Jersey Shore, I guess. J-Woww and Snooki tried to fight back, apparently deciding if they can't win, they won't let McKay or Sheila win either- and that was their downfall. Emmamite Sandwich follows, and Carmella had nothing left for a big win. This led to Snooki trying to back away, only for McKay and Sheila to throw her back into the ring- where she was easy pickings for Emma. DilEmma, Ven-Emma, and Snooki was beaten as Emma became the new NXT Women's Champion. After the match, Emma celebrated- she was back in NXT, and did it in the biggest way possible! NXT had another "well, technically it's a debut", as the former Roderick Strong (now called "Lindsey Roderick" by someone who apparently hated REAL wrestlers, according to Youtube commenters), took on Slick Wagner (apparently dropping the 'Brown'.) When you have one actual prospect, and one fringe to non-prospect...that usually leads to 'jobber'. And this didn't change, as Strong destroyed Wagner with backbreakers, finally locking the Stronghold in for the big victory. The Punk Rock Poser Princess, Becky Lynch, had a big match against yet another returning superstar to the new NXT- former Women's Champion Molly Holly. Referee Drake Wuertz, knowing the evil Molly's past as a star, made sure to check her and make sure there were no foreign objects- but he didn't do as much to check Lynch, who had a roll of quarters in her pants and was decidedly not happy to see either one of them. Lynch KOed the veteran, then put the offending knuckles back into her pants. Lynch covered, and a slightly fast count occurred as Lynch got the victory. Lynch celebrated in the ring, as Drake Wuertz looked at her and smiled as a video went to break. The Sacred Band of Thebes brought their NXT Tag Team Championships to the ring, as Danshoku Dino and HG (being announced as DIno Danshoku and Starship Coyote HG) led their allies, Satanico el Exotico (TAFKA Cassandro), Scarlet Pimpernel (TAFKA Pimpinela Escarlata), and Jimmy Long (TAFKA Paredyse) to the ring. They waited for their opponents- as The Vaudevillains showed up and officially defected to NXT. The Sacred Band tried using their vicious attacks to get past the former NXT Tag Champions, but The Vaudevillains were able to match up with them well. A Director's Cut by Aiden English followed, and The Vaudevillains got a big victory. The Vaudevillains held up their regained NXT Tag Team Championships as the show went to break. In the ring, The Amazing Red (now sold as the Incredible Red because it's bad enough I never wrote NXT until this angle, you want me to generate new names for the NXT results and make it worse? Bloody hell, people are already finding out I'm still as insane as ever, I need to try and attempt to make things easier for you readers, right?...) was waiting for his opponents. Just then, the lights dropped as Jimmy Yang was on the stage. He claimed that for too long, 3 Man Bullet had hindered his artistic pursuits, and that he was unable to fly like the angel he is. Now, on NXT, Akio Yang has his chance to soar. He needs no Bullets, just beauty, to set souls aflame with the power of rock. The lights came up as his bandmates, OK Revolution and Eros Apollo, joined him. The three headed down the ramp...but unfortunately, the mysterious Crimson Red second form of Red was there. Yang got beaten from pillar to post by the monster. Red Sky connects, and Yang was toast. The dominating person celebrated in the ring- as Gronda led the rest of the Famous Monsters, Metal Master, Lenn Oddity, and Crazzy Steve (Oh just read the roster for NXT at the end of this to find their new names), as they pointed towards Crimson Red as Steve shouted "ONE OF US!" towards him. In the main event, we had a battle royal to determine the new NXT World Champion. Things seemed to be small, starting with NXT standouts like Mike Bennett, Mickey Keegan, Bull Dempsey, Jake Manning and Bob Sapp, to returning former WWE names like Percy Watson, to confirmed stars like Hideo Itami, Elijah Burke, and Randy Orton- but then, the tides shifted. A whole deluge of big names walked out as big defectors: Dean Ambrose, The Code of Solomon, Justin Gabriel and Darren Young, Titus O'Neil and Alexander Rusev, CJ Parker, Jack Swagger, Fandango and his dancer, Sami Zayn, and Tyler Breeze. The battle royal started with everyone ganging up on Randy Orton, trying to make things easier on him. This didn't help matters, as it allowed Alexander Rusev to be all clear to start picking off people like Mickey Keegan and Elijah Burke. Darren Young went after Rusev, but Titus O'Neil still had a bone to pick with his ex-partner, as the two fought with each other. O'Neil got dispatched quickly, but Rusev was right there to attack- only for Jack Swagger to join Young as the two took out Rusev to the crowd's cheers. Swagger and Young shook hands- only for TAFKA Sapp to punch both men out and send them over. Meanwhile, Randy Orton started to take an advantage, knocking out CJ Parker, Tyler Breeze, Fandango, and TAFKA Manning quickly. Justin Gabriel and Percy Watson tried fighting at a corner- but Ambrose put them both out, then shrugged. TAFKA Bennett tried making a name for himself by going after Hideo Itami quickly, but Itami wasn't about to take that from Bennett and took him over- but Bull Dempsey was right there to dispatch the owner and get another huge scalp. Seeing the issues- Dempsey and Sapp argued with each other- then fought as the other four tried to get them over. This didn't work for Solomon Crowe at all, but Dean Ambrose, Sami Zayn, and Randy Orton teamed up and manuvered the two mastodons over the top rope together. The three looked at each other, trying to see who'd blink first- and it was Orton, fighting the other two. Orton grabbed Zayn for an RKO outta nowhere and took him out, with Triple H going up for the kill. HHH tried to grab Ambrose- but Dean Ambrose dropped, then maneuvered Orton over alongside Triple H to get the win! After the match, Dean Ambrose celebrated, as the first former member of The Shield to taste a Heavyweight Championship soaked in the applause of the crowd. Ric Flair and Shawn Michaels brought the NXT World Championship out, then put it over Ambrose's shoulder as he celebrated... ...until the lights went out. "NXT... ...we're back." The lights came back on as The Wyatt Family was surrounding Ambrose. Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt punished Ambrose with vicious assaults, before Tensai, Dylan Vachon, and Quentin Marsh went for the kill. A vicious attack followed, as Bray Wyatt looked at the NXT World Championship and held it up as the show ended... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- POST-FREE AGENCY WWE MAIN ROSTER AT A GLANCE: WWE:

Smackdown, November 28. Smackdown started in a big way, as John Cena and Nikki Bella came out to the ring and did what they've done before, and probably will keep doing until the heat death of the universe- whine about Antonio Cesaro losing the title to Brock Lesnar at King of the Ring. Cena said the same things everyone complains about him saying over and over again, but it's different now- Nikki Bella said things about how great a star she is as well. This brought out Antonio Cesaro, who said he should have expected something like that from someone willing to date a guy like Cena (as Cena and Nikki went with some more baby talk). Cesaro said that this company's not big enough for the two of them anymore, as Cena said "So you're finally quitting? Hallelujah!"...and Stephanie McMahon headed out, and she agreed. This company ISN'T big enough for the two of them anymore. John Cena is the face of the WWE, in multiple movies and TV shows coming up soon, and Antonio Cesaro...well, he's Too Swiss to be the face of this company. Cesaro and Cena argued, as Stephanie said that if her husband, Triple H, couldn't stop this- she will. She's right- the company IS too small for the two of you. This little issue the two of you have had has gone on past the realm of safety, it went on past Hell in a Cell, but it won't go on past a McMahon. That's why tonight, it will be Antonio Cesaro and John Cena, one on one, with the loser being put on psychological suspension, to last until the WWE has received a bill of health from WWE-licensed psychiatrists that the loser has finally calmed down about this whole problem. Cena and Cesaro glared at Stephanie, but agreed. Backstage, Paige was getting ready for her match, as Eva Marie came out and gloated to Paige about where her Divas' Championship was. Paige stood up, as Eva said not to bother- she wouldn't want to be fired like her mother was. Eva Marie kept saying that this is just proof- girls like you aren't meant to be a Divas' Champion. Her mentor, Stephanie McMahon, already promised she was going to get to be the next Divas' Champion- and when she does, she'll get to hand it right back to Stephanie like she deserved. Paige tried ignoring her- but Sheamus didn't, as he got in Eva Marie's face and said "You have a problem with her, you have a problem with me- and you have a problem with me, I'ma Brogue Kick ya into next week!" Eva Marie left, as Sheamus smiled and said "she does anything to you, tell me"- as Paige wasn't sure whether to be grateful or worried when the show went to break. This led to Sheamus having more problems, as he and Finn Balor hooked up in a big match. Finn Balor didn't go alone, bringing the members of 3 Man Bullet out to make sure Sheamus was going to have a tough time. The Great White kept up his attack, trying to punish the young punk and show him who the top Irish superstar was- but Finn Balor was too tough for him...and if he wasn't, Luke Gallows and Anderson Duke were as they ganged up on him. A Bloody Sunday followed, as Finn Balor got a big victory. Backstage, Stephanie McMahon was doing paperwork, the Divas' Title on her desk. Bayley came in and was angry enough she didn't even hug Stephanie or Eva Marie hello- complaining about what Stephanie McMahon did last Monday. Paige is her good friend, and she didn't deserve to lose the Divas' Championship for no reason. Stephanie said that's the problem- there WAS a reason. These fans may have hated Triple H for everything he did to them...but honestly? Triple H was too SOFT on them. Triple H would regularly tell her things these fans should get, and she had to tell him not to do it and be soft on them. The only difference between her and her husband, Triple H- is Triple H wanted what was Best for Business...and maybe sometimes it was best for the fans too. Her? She cares about one thing and one thing only- what is best for Stephanie McMahon. She hates the WWE Superstars, she hates the WWE Divas, GOD, she hates the WWE Universe, and she honestly doesn't care if business does well, To her, she'd be perfectly fine if the WWE burns, just as long as I am the woman holding the fiddle while it happens. Paige should consider herself honored I would even DO this to her- fact is, if I wanted to, I'll go to that farm in North Dakota and I'll strip Brock Lesnar of the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and award THAT to myself too, just because I can and just because it would really piss off all the fans in the crowd. Bayley was just shocked, and Stephanie smiled and said "you know, you did give me an idea. You're such good friends with Paige...tonight, you two will fight Eva Marie and Naomi- and if you lose the match, you'll be FIRED!" This led to their big tag team match, as Bayley and Paige headed into the ring. Paige tried to take the lead to help her friend- only for Stephanie McMahon to say that no, no. If Bayley's such a close friend of yours, then you have to let HER wrestle for this. Bayley shrugged and entered as Eva Marie smirked and joined in- as Bayley went in, and proved this might not have been a good move. EAT. SLEEP. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. HUG. REPEAT. Finishing the blow, Bayley easily pinned Eva Marie as Stephanie was furious. Bayley and Paige celebrated- as Stephanie clapped her hands- and The Returning Kings rushed the ring and tried to attack. Donny Sparkle hit the Sonic Rainboom onto Bayley as Stephanie shouted "KILL!", and DynamicSensation went for the Kingslayer on Paige- just as Sheamus stopped it with a Brogue Kick. Sheamus checked on Paige, noticeably not checking on Bayley as paramedics took her out. The United States Championship was on the line, as Zack Ryder took on the new champion Tyson Kidd. The announcers talked about how Kidd's Dungeon-born brutality had led to more problems, as he injured Adrian Neville with the Dungeon Lock (sure. "Injured." We'll go with that.) Ryder and his Four Broskis gloated at Kidd, saying that his win was a fluke and a real, great United States Champion should get the belt...FACT. This brought out Tyson Kidd, Natalya and David Hart Smith at his side, as they helped go toe to toe with the Four Broskis...which was not a good thing for Ryder, as he attacked Ryder viciously. Dungeon Lock is locked in, and Zack Ryder taps hard. Tyson Kidd put his headphones back on and held the title up as the crowd booed. Backstage, J. Enterprise was hanging out with Roman Reigns- who said it doesn't matter AC Halliburton went back to NXT. It's your time now, you've got the Intercontinental Title, you're ready to be the man yourself. Enterprise said thanks to Reigns- family still matters. Reigns said tonight, he hopes he understands he won't be in his corner- you're his blood, but Seth Rollins is his brother too. Enterprise and Reigns hugged, then Enterprise headed to the ring for this big match- as both he and Seth Rollins tore into each other. The Architect of the Shield tried taking out the intelligent hip-hopper, as Enterprise tried making superkick after superkick to try and get himself back into the match. It seemed like a battle of which guy blinks first, and Seth Rollins managed to do it- the result of a J. Enterprise crossbody getting him a quick three count as Rollins tried kicking out to no avail. After the match, J. Enterprise celebrated as Roman Reigns came to the ring, raising both guys' hands- as Jimmy Uso rushed into the ring and clocked all three guys with superkicks. Jimmy Uso glared at them, saying "I still family, Uce? What a joke." In the main event, the crowd was electric as Antonio Cesaro and John Cena took each other on, with an indefinite suspension on the line. Cena knew what was on the line, tearing into Cesaro from the beginning with vicious stiff punches. Cesaro blocked, fighting Cena with equally stiff attacks. The two tried to get each other out, with neither one being willing to give the other virtually anything. Cena tried to lock on the AA, but Cesaro deadweighted and clobbered Cena's back with vicious moves. Nikki Bella tried helping Cena, which got Cena an advantage as Cena tried for the chain and started to attack- but the referee forced Nikki Bella back to the dressing room. Cesaro knocked the chain away, then started to attack Cena. Cesaro tried for a double leg takedown as Cena clobbered his back. Cena went for the pickup and hit the Spoiler Alert for 12 rotations, then hit the AA. STF locked in, as Cesaro forced his way to the the ropes. Cena went for the kill, and tried grabbing him, but Cesaro went down and locked him in. Giant Swing for 24 rotations, and Cena went down. Neutralizer followed, and Cesaro gets the win as John Cena is suspended indefinitely! Nikki Bella rushed to the ring and threw a tantrum, as Cena was sent away. The show ended with Cena and Nikki having a meltdown, as Antonio Cesaro finally dispatched his biggest rival.

Raw, December 1. Raw started as the crowd was electric, when Antonio Cesaro headed to the ring. Cesaro took a big, deep breath and said it was good to finally be free. On Smackdown, John Cena was suspended indefinitely, and he can't come back unless he's out of his hair for good. I can finally move on from my career, move on from Cena telling him all of his biggest failures and trying to drive him from the sport he loves- and now, he can focus on getting back the WWE World Heavyweight Championship from Brock Lesnar. Lesnar was good- but if he had a fair referee and not John Cena at Summerslam, he would have beaten him. Now, there's nothing in his way...and that's Goldust's music. Goldust says, nothing against you, Cesaro- but last he checked, he's not exactly 'Nothing'. You are great. You'd be able to beat Brock Lesnar in a fair fight...but not for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, because Goldust has a date with Lesnar first at Tables, Ladders, and Chairs, and Goldust HAS TO HAVE that title. I vowed to retire on December 31 if I couldn't become WWE World Heavyweight Champion this year, and since this is my one and only chance to do just that, then there's no tomorrow for him at TLC. if he wins, he's the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. If he loses at TLC, then he won't have another chance- and if that's the case, then Goldust will instead retire that night and get himself 9 days off to reward him for 19 years of wrestling. Cesaro said he hopes Goldust can do it- but Goldust knows, if that's how it's going to be, Cesaro will just beat him for the belt instead, as Goldust shook Cesaro's hand and said "I'd love to see you try." This brought out Paul Heyman, who said that while these two keep making up fantasies about possibly being a champion or being able to beat Brock Lesnar, which is less realistic than gaining superpowers from a nuclear reactor- and even if they did gain those superpowers they'd never be able to beat a Demigod like Lesnar, Paul Heyman is out here to advocate for his other clients. On Smackdown, Antonio Cesaro cost Heyman one of his biggest cash cows when John Cena was suspended, and he will get his revenge. Goldust turned to him and said that's fine- at TLC he'll lose his OTHER one when Goldust beats Brock Lesnar. This was enough for Heyman's lesser cash cows of Curtis Axel and Connor O'Brian to attack- and then, Stephanie McMahon came out. She said that this was never the plan- she thought she could get rid of Cesaro and nip any plans these fans might have of a hero to take her power away down pat. She thought she can cull any possible way these fans could ever dissent to her leadership at the bud now before letting it rise, and finally showing the fans that the WWE is truly HER show, and ONLY her show- but if Cena couldn't do it- then she'll do two birds with one stone. Tonight, Curtis Axel and Connor O'Brian will face Goldust and Antonio Cesaro in the main event and the loser of the pinfall WILL be fired. In non-title action, United States Champion Tyson Kidd took on the former United States Champion, Finn Balor. The other members of 3 Man Bullet were out there to hold off David Hart Smith and Natalya, which gave Balor a big advantage. However, Anderson Duke and Luke Gallows got pulled away from the match quickly, which allowed Tyson Kidd back into the match. Kidd was able to take an advantage for this- but just as he went for the Dungeon Lock- Baron Corbin showed up and attacked Kidd for Balor, allowing him to get the win. After the match, Balor welcomed Corbin into 3 Man Bullet, as Balor said he's never got his rematch, he just beat the champ- he wants Kidd, at TLC, in a Ladder Match. Backstage, Stephanie McMahon was doing work, just as The Returning Kings headed into the office. Donny Sparkle said that all right, they helped her attack Paige and Bayley last week, now it's time for Stephanie McMahon to give them what she promised them in exchange. Stephanie said that she's sorry, but Eva Marie is busy training right now for her Divas' Championship Qualifying match and can't help them right now, but she had other options. DynamicSensation said this is why they were wary- they couldn't trust a worthless woman who was afraid of giving a nice guy a chance- as Stephanie said that was not the case. Indeed, your promise was that we WOULD give you one chance. At TLC, you'll get a shot with Big Show and Big Cass for the Tag Team Championships. The two looked, then shrugged and agreed as they left the office. The Tag Champions, however, had another match to work with, as Big Show and Colin Cassady took on Enzo Amore and The Big O of the Four Broskis. The crowd was starting to chant with Enzo Amore's spiel- but Big Cass proved that Big O wasn't as good as he was at it with a big boot to attack him. Big Show and Big Cass toyed with Enzo and the Big O, doing whatever they wanted to them. However, The new number one contenders made their presence felt, as Donny Sparkle cracked Big Show over the back with the loaded doll. Sparkle attacked Big Show, which allowed Amore and Big O to strike. Big O threw Enzo Amore right at Cassady, as Amore got a pinfall for the shocking upset. Enzo Amore and The Big O celebrated, then motioned for wanting the title- or, if they knew the Returning Kings were number one contenders, an attempt to get a Discount Double-Check. Cody Rhodes continued his strike as most of Evolution left for NXT, taking on the Angry Swamp Sheep Plucker, Erick Rowan. Rowan's dominance was all he had to keep him in the match, using his big hossiness to handle Mr. Money in the Bank with everything he had in his arsenal. However, Rhodes was just too much for Rowan, as Rhodes easily took an advantage. CrossRhodes follows, as Erick Rowan fell to Rhodes's might. Family had to turn on each other, as Jimmy Uso took on his cousin and the alleged person who ripped his brother away from him, Roman Reigns. Reigns tried to reason with Uso, but Uso started a superkick party on Reigns, trying to take him out from the beginning. Roman Reigns got to look strong all over Uso, using a number of vicious assaults on Reigns to strike. This was exacerbated when Naomi distracted the referee, allowing Uso more of an attack. When the anger went bad, though, J. Enterprise came into the ring, distracting Jimmy Uso and Naomi. This distracted Uso right into a Superman Punch. Spear follows, and Roman Reigns gets a big victory. Jimmy Uso turned on J. Enterprise, as he and Naomi attacked. Reigns helped his cousin- but as they went for a kill, Big E Langston rushed into the ring and attacked Reigns to the boos. Big Ending to Reigns, Superkick to Enterprise, and Langston put his fist up, which Naomi and Uso followed with as they stood above their enemies. A Divas' Championship title match qualifier started up, as Kendall Skye and Paige each headed to the ring to try and get in the match. Eva Marie headed to the ring with Stephanie McMahon at her side, the chosen one for Stephanie's next Divas' Champion. Paige gloated at knowing she could take her on as the crowd wondered what would help Eva Marie get past Paige- as Stephanie McMahon motioned to the back- as a familiar theme hit, marking Sasha Banks's return to action- the Divas' Championship Committee was in full effect once again! The four people waited in the ring for the match to begin, as the Divas' Championship Committee looked at Kendall Skye, the weaker opponent, and then Paige, the toughest one and the one Stephanie McMahon was hellbent to keep away from getting the title back. Sasha and Eva Marie talked to each other, Eva Marie motioning to Skye as Sasha nodded and motioned to Paige. The two broke as they locked up... ...just as Sasha Banks clocked Eva Marie from behind as the crowd cheered. Sasha screamed out "YOU WANT TO SCREW WITH ME, STEPHANIE? YOU SUSPEND ME THREE MORE MONTHS FOR NO REASON, STEPHANIE? TAKE THAT!", as Paige easily went for the PTO on Eva Marie. Sasha Banks kept Kendall Skye at bay as Eva Marie tapped out. Stephanie McMahon was furious, as Sasha Banks attacked Stephanie to the fans' cheers. A Bank Statement followed as Stephanie tapped out, followed by Paige shaking hands and hugging Sasha Banks as "The Boss" laid waste to her former allies. In the main event, Antonio Cesaro and Goldust took on Heyman Guys Connor O'Brian and Curtis Axel with the toughest challenge there- the one who loses the pinfall gets fired. The Heyman Guys had far better chemistry as a team, punishing the two viciously. The two tried focusing on Goldust, the more present challenge- but then Heyman said "HE'S NOTHING!", allowing them to focus on getting Cesaro out of the company instead. This was a benefit for Goldust, as he started clobbering O'Brian with everything he had. Cesaro took the advantage and grabbed Axel, then motioned for a Giant Swing, but Paul Heyman hit him with the cell phone and attacked. This gave Goldust the chance to tag Cesaro, as he attacked Axel. Shattered Dreams, Final Cut, and Axelmania will no longer run wild on the WWE. After the match, Goldust celebrated, putting two fingers up to Heyman...as Heyman returned the two fingers with a smile. The crowd wondered why this would happen...only for Mojo Rawley and Bull Dempsey to rush into the ring and lay waste to both Cesaro and Goldust. Hyperdrive to Cesaro, Powerbomb to Goldust. The show ended as Paul Heyman shook both man's hands, and said "Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman, and I'd like to introduce you to the two NEWEST Paul Heyman Guys- Mojo Rawley and Bull Dempsey!"

Giant Bernard comes back to NJPW in time for Wrestle Kingdom 9, Curtis Axel heads to ROH, and Dixie gets Hulk back to further the demise of TNA into what it is now.
At least, that's what I think happens.

NXT, December 3. NXT started with a bang as The Wyatt Family showed up. Bray Wyatt, flanked by Luke Harper, Dylan Vachon, and Quentin Marsh, sat in his rocking chair and said that for too long, they've been lied to, just like all the fans been lied to. They thought just being out there to destroy people is all that can give a star their power. They think if you take power by your might, by fear, that gives you power. But Hideo Itami- he showed where power lies. Dean Ambrose- he showed where power lies. Fear don't give you Power- POWER gives people FEAR. The only way to get the fear Bray Wyatt lives on, the fear that fuels him, that makes him powerful, is to get the power. Last week, Dean Ambrose got him that power when he won the NXT World Championship- so now, Bray Wyatt will use the fear he has and take that power away from him, and finally be at the top of the mountain and lord over the world as they're afraid of heights. FOLLOW THE BUZZARDS. In the first match, Sara Amato headed to the ring for a big challenge against the Punk Rock Poser Princess, Becky Lynch. The crowd gave a few boos to Lynch- but referee Drake Wuertz seemed to be very happy to see her. This was a big benefit to Lynch, as he started off the match a little harder on Amato, trying to make sure that she didn't break any rules. Lynch, however, was happier to see her roll of quarters than this, as Amato became the second NXT trainer in as many weeks to feel the might of Lynch. A fast count finished, as Becky Lynch celebrated her win. Drake Wuertz shook her hand and hugged Lynch in celebration, as Lynch returned it then went backstage as Amato fumed. More NXT regulars made their debut to the new era of NXT, as The British Invasion made their debut in the NXT Brand extension era. Robbie Brookside led his proteges, the evil Kenneth Cameron, the nebbishy Jameson York, and the British Luchador Tres Leones to six-man tag team action against Akio Yang and his new allies Eros Apollo and OK Revolution. Calling themselves "Bad Luck", it seemed to be just that for the British Invasion. Yang and Apollo attacked with dazzling high-flying moves, while OK Revolution handled more of a ground attack. A Reverb Super Splash by Revolution followed on Tres Leones, as Apollo and Yang hit two big attacks to the outside on his partners for the big victory. The NXT Tag Team Titles were on the line next, as The Vaudevillains made their first defense against the Motor City Machine Guns, making a debut on the new era of NXT. Sheldon Alexander and Matt Hardwick had been big stars throughout the world's "minor leagues", but their first big match in the majors could have gone easier for them. If nothing else, the two's teamwork seemed to dazzle the Vaudevillains, nearly allowing them to pull off a miracle. What Simon Gotch and Aiden English didn't have in teamwork, they had in cheating. A Curtain Call by English, a stiff bareknuckle punch by Gotch, and the Vaudevillains keep their titles. The NXT Women's Title was on the line, as new champion Emma had her toughest challenge to date as the international standout Diva Gran Himiko made her first appearance on the "new" NXT. This was a far more hard-fought battle for the new champion, as even her main roster experience couldn't match up with Himiko's ability. The fans knew Emma was not the joke she looked like, as she was able to take a big advantage on the world-traveled Diva well. DilEmma followed, and Emma defended her title well. After the match, Snooki rushed the ring and tried to go to the top rope for a big crossbody on the woman who took her title, but Snooki slipped off the ropes and had a serious, brutal looking knee injury. The referee called for an 'X' as EMTs came for Snooki, Emma and Gran Himiko breaking character when they saw the injury as she headed off. After the graphic nature of the last match, the crowd waited as they saw a unknown guy, in the former Hawaiian Lion on the indies, now being called "Jackmeoff Mud" because he couldn't be more of a jobber, now could he? Ya expect me to come up with great names for even these low-level guys? I already have two people helping me on names, is that so wrong to go to Name of the Year for the worthless jobbers? Anyway, it wasn't that long a problem, as Mal Ukafa came to the ring and knocked him out until his name really WAS Mud. So, who cares? The WWE, excuse me, NXT Cruiserweight Champion Charlotte defended her title on the line against Brie Bella, as her husband Daniel Bryan went to join the announcers- and to make it more of a problem, Charlotte had her mentor, Triple H, alongside her. Bryan talked about how he was a little wary, but Brie felt that she's climbed every mountain in women's wrestling on Raw, and now that she's on NXT, she wanted to find a new battle to climb, so she plans to enter the Cruiserweight Division full time. In an attempt to show this new possibility, Charlotte...well, didn't make this a warm welcome, as it looked like Brie Bella may have bitten off more than she could chew. A Natural Selection, and Charlotte had a huge victory to retain her title. After the match, Daniel Bryan headed to the ring to console his wife- just as the Rodman Second-World Tour started up. Dennis Rodman hyped people up as only a NBA legend-turned-North Korean sympathizer could, while Lana talked about how Brie Bella was just too weak to fight in the Cruiserweight Division. It is not her fault- she is just a weak, American woman. Unlike a woman like Lana, who has the strength any Russian would, a strength given to them by the pride of bringing honor to Vladimir Putin, Brie Bella just did not have that ability. Brie Bella screamed out "Don't sing it, bring it!" to the Ravishing Russian- which was not a good idea for her. Lana did come down to the ring, and grabbed a chair and cracked Brie over the head with it as Daniel Bryan was shocked. Bryan tried to help his wife, but Alexander Rusev grabbed him and forced him to watch the carnage. Lana then wrapped Brie's ankle in the chair and Pillmanized her as Daniel Bryan wailed out, as the paramedics came out for the second time. Daniel Bryan shouted at all three members of the Rodman Second World Tour, as Triple H looked at Bryan. Triple H expressed his deepest sympathies for what just happened- he was actually quite fond of Brie Bella- but this is what happens when you're at the top. He's hurting now, Triple H would be too if someone hit Stephanie McMahon- but the fact is- Alexander Rusev is one of the biggest stars who defected to NXT. Unfortunately for Daniel Bryan right now, Rusev is Best For Business, and Daniel Bryan has to recognize that. Triple H then asked Bryan "do you want to be the cowboy, or do you want to be the businessman? You can't be both right now..." Whether it was the injury to her friend earlier on the show or just common cowardice, J-Woww was a last minute managerial change from a scheduled match, as she had her friend the Princess of Staten Island, Carmella, take on the white-hot JL McKay. J-Woww tried to help Carmella use her...relatively weak strikes and ineffective grappling, to try and stem the tide of one of the NXT women's franchise players, but that's what Sheila is being paid for, as she attacked J-Woww and kept the match in the ring. Schoolgirl Crush followed, as McKay got a huge win. McKay celebrated with the fans as the Jersey Shore crew regrouped and headed backstage. In the main event, NXT World Champion Dean Ambrose teamed with one of NXT's owners, Hideo Itami, to take on Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper of the Wyatt Family. This was a big benefit for the first Shield member to win a World Title and the man who took Triple H's power- but when you fight two Wyatt Family members, you fight ALL the Wyatt Family members. And when Dylan Vachon and Quentin Marsh made the match a quick 4-on-2 matchup, it became impossible for the two to keep going. Bray Wyatt got Sister Abigail on Ambrose, getting the big victory, as Wyatt said he doesn't need tables, he doesn't need ladders, he doesn't need chairs- he just wants Dean Ambrose, in that ring, for the NXT World Championship.

Smackdown, December 5. Smackdown started in a big way, as Paul Heyman headed to the ring flanked by his clients, Connor O'Brian, Mojo Rawley, and Bull Dempsey. Paul Heyman talked about how for months, he's tried to tell you and tell you that what YOU thought a Paul Heyman Guy is is not important, all that is important is what PAUL HEYMAN thinks a Paul Heyman Guy is. Brock Lesnar is the perfect example- he is not JUST a Paul Heyman Guy because he can do a few suplexes, or win UFC Titles. He is a Paul Heyman Guy because he is a Demigod, he is a Beast, he is a Force of Nature. He is a Paul Heyman Guy because he is the greatest fighting machine on the planet. He is a Paul Heyman Guy because he is so dominant he will ALWAYS win against his opponent, and as such he will give his agent, Paul Heyman, 15% of the winner's purse and make Paul Heyman as much money as possible. That is what these men- Connor O'Brian, Mojo Rawley, and Bull Dempsey, bring to the table. Being a Paul Heyman Guy has never been about the wrestler's talent, but about one simple fact: Who will make Paul Heyman the most money to ally with? Mojo Rawley was the NXT Champion and was never beaten for that belt. Bull Dempsey came out of nowhere and defeated Antonio Cesaro at Survivor Series. THESE are people worthy of being Paul Heyman Guys. Roman Reigns headed down to the ring as the crowd cheered, getting a big match with Bo Dallas. The Bo-Liever Bus continued, as the dwindling Bo-Lievers fell further with Dallas and Alex Riley heading towards the ring alongside the cadre of Bo-Lievers who joined them, Riley handing cookies and Bo-Lieve! buttons to the fans. This seemed to be a mismatch for the Inspirational leader of the Bo-Lievers- as Roman Reigns started punishing Dallas from pillar to post. A series of vicious strikes kept Dallas being brutalized. Alex Riley tried helping, but a Superman Punch took him out of the match. Roman Reigns got a second one on Bo Dallas, and was ready for the kill with a spear- but just then, a fan (or at least non-immediately recognizable NXT talent) rushed out to the ring and got in between Reigns and Dallas. Roman Reigns stopped up, not wanting to attack the fan, as Alex Riley helped the fan out of the ring and towards the bus. Reigns turned around, as Bo Dallas hit a low blow on Reigns, then hit a Bo-Dog on him for what could only be called an upset. After the match, Bo Dallas, Alex Riley, and all the Bo-Lievers did a victory lap as the fan tried to do the same. This tied to a scene on the bus, as Riley and Dallas turned to the fan and asked why she would even dream of putting herself in the way of Roman Reigns for his sake. The woman said her name was Shara, and she came all the way from Europe to America because she Bo-Lieved so much she had to join him. Shara begged Dallas to let he be a Bo-Liever, saying this was all she ever wanted, as Dallas said she didn't have to get his permission to join him- he's never asked for people to bow down to him. All you have to follow him- is just Bo-Lieve. Shara hugged Dallas as the three Bo-Lievers got into the bus as it drove off. Erick Rowan headed to the ring for a big challenge, as Baron Corbin's theme hit. Corbin was dominant himself, but Erick Rowan was the toughest challenge in the Lone Wolf of 3 Man Bullet's career. Indeed, it actually lasted more than a minute for him. However, not that much longer- once it became clear Corbin could actually be fighting someone at his level, Finn Balor, Luke Gallows, and Anderson Duke beat the crap out of Rowan, allowing Corbin to hit the End of Days on him for the win. The new number one contender Returning Kings had a shot against the team they inadvertantly gave a case to on Monday in Enzo Amore and The Big O of the Four Broskis. Enzo Amore took the mic and said that on Monday, Big Show, Big Cass, they felt the power of the realest guys in the room. These two sweet boys The Returning Kings, they spend months picking on some girls and they think that gives them the right to go after a title shot? Ain't happening- they beat the champs, they get the spot- you want the shot, wait until they beat those big gorillas and prove you ain't too S-A-W-F-T SAWFT! to beat some guys up. This was fighting words to the Returning Kings, who began to attack relentlessly. The two focused on Enzo Amore, decimating the smaller man with a series of vicious moves. Donny Sparkle tried to get the loaded doll, as Amore kicked it out of his hands, trying to fight through it. The attack kept going, with Amore playing Ricky Morton to the team. Enzo Amore tagged in The Big O, who punished both members of the Returning Kings. More Weights, More Dates followed, and The Big O got a second big upset for his team. After the match, Enzo and the Big O celebrated- as The Returning Kings attacked after the match. DynamicSensation went for the Kingslayer- but Sheamus headed down and attacked. Brogue Kick to DynamicSensation, Brogue Kick to Donny Sparkle, and both guys were out. Enzo Amore and The Big O celebrated with Sheamus- but Sheamus Brogue Kicked Enzo Amore afterwards and jawed to him saying "Ah still din't forget what you did!" as The Big O tried helping his broski. Backstage, Stephanie McMahon was in her office browbeating Eva Marie. Stephanie McMahon had one plan set. Ever since she put Eva on her staff, I wanted to make you the top Diva that you've been destined to be since the moment "Total Divas" took the air, and in the last few months, when you made your plan, you became my personal choice to be the next Divas' Champion...and THIS is how you repay me? Sasha Banks just became a traitor because she couldn't deal with her own problems and had to hurt you for it. NOW, Paige gets a rematch to try and get back the Divas' Championship, and it's all your fault. I will NOT LET that happen- you WILL get into the Divas' Title match, you will WIN the Divas' Title match, and you will hand me that title back when you win it. Eva Marie agreed, as we went to the second Divas' Title qualifier- where Eva Marie was back in, this time taking on the third generation superstar Natalya, the female Broski Bianca Ferrari, and the Diva who didn't choose the Hug Life, the Hug Life chose her, Bayley. The match was a bit easier, as Eva Marie was able to focus on Bianca and get a challenger more her speed. The two put on a...well, not decent, but EVEN match, which helped Eva Marie look better. Indeed, if Eva Marie focused on a one-on-one, she'd have won the match. Unfortunately, there were two other people in this- and while Eva Marie had Bianca Ferrari in her grasp, Natalya was trying to fight hard against Bayley. This was good for her veteran ability- until Bayley caught fire, and we saw footage as Smackdown coming to you tonight from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma HUG CITY, BABE. Population: Natalya. When the smoke cleared, Bayley got the biggest win of her career to date and qualified for the Divas' Title match as Eva Marie threw a temper tantrum. After a video for WWE Champion Brock Lesnar, the main event had his opponent at TLC, Goldust, taking on fellow Paul Heyman Guy Connor O'Brian. O'Brian tried punishing the veteran with all of his...kind of basic power attacks, which was easy for Goldust to counter. Goldust knew this wasn't his first rodeo, as he punished O'Brian with a series of vicious moves to brutalize him. Goldust took an advantage quickly, hitting the Shattered Dreams, then the Final Cut on O'Brian to get the big victory. After the match, Goldust celebrated- until Bull Dempsey and Mojo Rawley headed to the ring with a table. Goldust tried fighting the three off, but the three grabbed Goldust and hit a triple powerbomb on him, putting him through the table as Smackdown ended.

RAW, December 8. Raw started off with a big match, as the number one contender Goldust faced off with Zack Ryder. The leader of the Four Broskis saw his partners' success against the tag team division, and was trying to get himself in line for a possible WWE World Heavyweight Championship opportunity. However, this was not the case- even if Goldust is the number one contender, Zack Ryder being that close to the World Title wasn't about to happen today. Goldust took an advantage, outsmarting Long Island Iced Z. Shattered Dreams, Final Cut, and Goldust had the win. Goldust celebrated- as a video for Brock Lesnar aired after the match. The United States Title was on the line in a thrilling cruiserweight match, as Tyson Kidd took on El Torito. El Torito was given a lot of offense by the champion- but didn't really put much effort in outside of doing his trademark spots. Tyson Kidd bottlefed the baby bull into a decent match, stretching him and using his rare size advantage to attack him. However, it wasn't until a smaller man came from the stands and hit a hurricanrana on Torito, followed by a springboard elbow, that Tyson Kidd finally took the advantage. Dungeon Lock followed, and El Torito tapped out. After the match, the man celebrated as Tyson said that this was a great day for the Hart Dynasty- FACT. His little brother here, Owen Kidd, was finally ready to join them so they could take everyone on- as the former Pete Wilson posed for the crowd. The Bo-Lievers were in play, as Alex Riley had a big match to do Bo Dallas proud and show his ability ag-oh crap Bull Dempsey's coming out here. Well, it was nice while Riley had a chance to possibly win. Dempsey attacked with some basic moves, squashing Riley viciously. Powerbomb followed, and Riley is beaten. After the match, Bull Dempsey kept the attack going, with Connor O'Brian and Mojo Rawley helping his attack keep going as they left Riley broken. Backstage, Sheamus was walking- as Paige turned to him and said that she can handle herself. Two weeks ago, he tries telling Eva Marie he'd attack her if she caused him problems- now last Thursday he lays out both the Returning Kings and Enzo Amore? What's going on here? Sheamus said he was just trying to help her out- but Paige said she could handle things on her own. Sheamus said he knew that, but he likes her and he wants to help her. Paige was a little taken aback as Sheamus asked her out on a date. Paige stammered, and said "I'm sorry- I can't think of having a boyfriend right now", as she left. Sheamus looked angry as the show went to break... The Big Show had a big battle, as he took on Enzo Amore in singles action. Enzo and The Big O cut a promo talking about how they hear Big Show and Big Cass are the champs, those sweet boy Returning Kings are number one contenders...they just told you all twice they deserve a tag title match. They're demanding to make their way into the title match at TLC, and if they don't agree they are S-A-W-F-T SAWFT! In the ring, Big O and Colin Cassady protected their respective partners, but this only led to Enzo Amore getting dominated by the World's Largest Athlete. Enzo Amore needed a miracle to beat Big Show- and he got one as 3 Man Bullet headed to the ring and laid waste to Big Show. Twelfth Step by Luke Gallows, as a End of Days by Baron Corbin kept Colin Cassady from helping, and Enzo Amore got a win. After the match, 3 Man Bullet attacked as Finn Balor took the mic and said that one title match ain't enough, they need two. You add Enzo and Big O to the match, add his associates and give a RRRRREAL challenge to the champions. Backstage, Stephanie McMahon is continuing to take Eva Marie to task, saying last Thursday she just made things that much worse. Now, both Paige AND Bayley got in the match because of her ineptitude. How many times does Stephanie have to tell Eva- just QUALIFY for the match. That's all, and Stephanie will take it from there. How hard is that? Eva Marie's getting a third qualification chance tonight- don't screw THIS ONE up. Eva Marie nodded as the show went to a break- after which we had a fourth match, as Eva Marie had her opponents head to the ring. Shara came down alongside Bo Dallas for her debut match, followed by Naomi. Alexa Bliss headed down the ramp third, but Eva Marie tried hitting a chop block on Bliss, as Bliss fell awkwardly onto her ankle. Bliss hobbled into the match, trying to work on it as Eva Marie attacked, but Shara and Naomi were busy fighting. Eva Marie kept attacking the ankle of Bliss, who screamed out over the ring mic. Bliss struggled to stay up as Eva Marie halfheartedly kicked at Bliss, who tried screaming an audible 'I'M REALLY HURT!' to Eva Marie as she kept trying to. The referee saw this and put up an X, as suddenly Naomi dropped what she was doing against Shara and covered Bliss for a three count. Shara questioned what happened as the referee shrugged, then she and Naomi grabbed Bliss and helped her back to the dressing room. In the main event, Roman Reigns took on Big E Langston. Jimmy Uso was at his newfound friend's side, which was countered by his twin brother J.Enterprise at Roman Reigns's side. Langston and Reigns kept fighting, neither man getting an advantage on the other. Langston soon overpowered Reigns, trying to fight him with vicious assaults. Big Ending nearly happened, but Reigns powered out of it. Reigns kept a number of vicious strikes, punishing Langston. Reigns went for the Superman Punch, but after doing so, Jimmy Uso superkicked Reigns down. Big E got Reigns up, then hit the Big Ending on him for the victory. Uso and Langston attacked Reigns- only for J. Enterprise to superkick Jimmy Uso down, then attack him. Roman Reigns and J. Enterprise recollected themselves, and said "You two wanna fight? TLC, bring it!" as Raw ended.

NXT, December 10. NXT began with the Full Sail crowd getting their first introduction to Dennis Rodman's Second-World Tour...and they were NOT happy about this. However, in a plus about the hardcore, snarky IWC-friendly Full Sail crowd, they actually got angrier once Rodman introduced Lana and Alexander Rusev to the people. Lana talked about how last week, it was a sad moment when she had to break Brie Bella's ankle with a chair- but this is not her fault. You see, it is the fault of an American woman for thinking she was strong enough to fight the greatest throughout the world. Unfortunately, no American is strong enough to take on the might of anyone. While Lana, as a Russian woman and a great, devoted person who made herself the picture of femininity that was shown to the world by the great portrait of masculinity, Vladimir Putin, she would be able to defeat Brock Lesnar easily by this power- she shows the nature of a truly great Russian woman and stands behind her man, Rusev. Brie Bella shows the problem with American women- she did not end her career to stand behind Daniel Bryan, like the misguided women of America who feel that their own happiness means more than the happiness of the group that is a family. Brie Bella flew too close to the sun when she tried to be Cruiserweight Champion, and now Lana had to do what was best and strike her down to show her where her place truly is. NXT saw the return of former NXT wrestler Jason Jordan, making an attempt to start a singles career following his career stumbling in the WWE. His opponent, the Rock and Roll Jesus Elias Sampson, tried making a name for himself in one of his first NXT matches- and Jordan was able to handle Sampson very well in this match. However, Drake Wuertz was refereeing the match, and this led to a problem as Jordan started getting an advantage. Elias Sampson tried fighting back, but Jason Jordan got an attack. A big punch led to a double underhook DDT by Jordan for what looked like the win- but after the pinfall, Wuertz claimed that Elias Sampson got the win by DQ over the closed fist. Jason Jordan threw a temper tantrum as Sampson celebrated with the fans. Backstage, an office almost, barely familiar to '90s kids happened, as Dennis Haskins, the Principal Owner of NXT, was waiting. Daniel Bryan came in and exchanged pleasantries with Haskins, before asking if he saw what Alexander Rusev and Lana did last week. Haskins agreed that what they did was terrible- as Daniel Bryan demanded that Haskins agree to put him back on the active roster so that he can make Rusev pay for what he did to his wife. Haskins said that he talked about it with Hideo Itami, Ric Flair, and Shawn Michaels over the last week, but unfortunately, WWE's medical staff hasn't cleared Daniel Bryan to return from his neck injury yet. The three of them are Bryan's friends-he knows how much they care about him, and so they're thinking about what's best for him more than anything else. Haskins said the second Bryan gets cleared to compete again, he'll be happy to give him Rusev- but he's not risking Bryan ending his own career just to get vengeance. Bryan said that he can't get it- this isn't about his career- it's about his family... ...and that brought Triple H into the office. Triple H simply said to Bryan "It begins." Triple H is excited- NOW, Daniel Bryan's seeing what Triple H has always told him. Alexander Rusev is one of the biggest stars on NXT, and he's ready to ruin his career over vengeance and do what wasn't best for business. It's no different than Triple H going after Brock Lesnar. He's a executive- bones heal- even better if he's not wrestling, he can have his office rebuilt and made even better than it was before with the stroke of a pen. But it didn't matter- he was so desperate for vengeance he put that above what was best for business, and now it started him realizing that the company may be more important than the WWE. Now, Bryan's doing it. You're injured- there's a chance you may not wrestle again- and if you face a man like Alexander Rusev, it's a FORMALITY it'll end your career. This isn't best for business- if you do this, you'll become exactly what you hated. Dennis Haskins looked at Triple H's claims, then said to Bryan "You want to put him in his place?" Daniel Bryan looked at Triple H, then responded with "BOTH of them." Dennis Haskins said he'l clear it with everyone else, but if Daniel Bryan will agree to sign a waiver that you're going into this match of your own free will, and the NXT roster has no credence if you get a career-ending injury...then at the TLC match, he'll give you that match- it'd be Daniel Bryan, going one on one with Alexander Rusev, in a Chairs Match! In the ring, J-Woww and Carmella came to the ring to a chorus of boos, and they said that since their girl Snooki can't be there, that really changed their minds. They needed to start focusing on managing, not on wrestling- and that's why they found the two guys most worthy of hanging with the baddest bitches in NXT- their new clients. This brought Brody Broseph and Vinny Saggs to the ring for a match, that looked like a squash as the oddly-named jobbers Smokey Don Pipes and Marijuana Warr waited for the match. The former Nate Webb and Willie Mack, respectively, seemed like they were no match for The Wolfpack...at least until Warr started shocking Brody Broseph by manhandling him and going move for move with him. The Wolfpack was in shock, as Pipes managed to attack Vinny Saggs, keeping him in a bad way as the group managed to work well together. J-Woww and Carmella tried distracting the jobber team- but JL McKay and Sheila attacked them on the outside, clearing it for attack. Chocolate Thunder Bomb by Warr on Broseph, and the two jobbers had a huge upset. Warr and Pipes celebrated and headed out of the ring, watching- as the angry Wolfpack hit a double suicide dive on the two and attacked. The NXT Tag Team Champion Vaudevillains headed to the ring for a non-title match, making an open challenge to prove how great a team they were- as a vaguely heard theme was mixed with a slightly more recognizable video- former WWE Tag Team Champions Paul London and The Brian Kendrick were making a return. The Vaudevillains didn't know what to expect from the longest-reigning WWE Tag Team Champions ever, as the two dazzled Aiden English and Simon Gotch. The Vaudevillains tried fighting back, but this was too much for them. The Kendrick by one half was followed by a Shooting Star Press by London, as London and Kendrick put themselves back into a title picture. The Vaudevillains were shocked as London and Kendrick high-fived fans. Another jobber match happened, as the former Ruckus (announced as Arquimedes Caminero on the chyron) headed out and waited for his opponent- only for Mal Ukafa to head to the ring as his night just got a lot harder. Ukafa, at least, doesn't work by the hour, as he started brutalizing Caminero with vicious strikes. A Knockout Punch followed, and Mal Ukafa got the win. The Dancing Queen of NXT, Emma, defended her NXT Women's Championship in an open challenge- and this led to a big story for fans, as we got the return of former ECW general manager Tiffany to NXT. The former GM showed more of the talent that she found in...well, other places, but was still not in the same league as the Women's Champion. Emma got an early advantage on Tiffany, punishing her. Ven-Emma followed, and Emma kept her championship. Emma celebrated- as Carmella attacked her following the match. The team of DoubleCross came to the ring to a slight reaction- as Jason and Matt Cross headed to the ring for a big attack. Lindsey Roderick headed down the ramp to a mixed reaction, then introduced his new partner- as John Cahill made his return to an NXT arena to another good cheer- the No Remorse Corps were riding again. DoubleCross tried to attack first, using their own abilities to brutalize the new team- but their high flying was easily matched up by the NRC's technical abilities. The two brutalized them, finishing with Roderick hitting a vicious backbreaker on Jason Cross for the victory. The Canadian Ninjas made their debut on the "new NXT", as Serena Knox and Jynx Mendez got a featured match focusing on punishing Alma Bone and Magnolia Thunderpussy. The former Irene and Alpha*Female, respectively, tried fighting with all they had, but the might of Knox and Mendez was too much for the two of them. Funky Cold Medina followed, as the Ninjas got a big victory. After the match, they both motioned towards their waists and apparently wanted a deal on their car insurance- but I thought football wasn't as big in Canada. In the main event, Dean Ambrose defended the NXT World Championship against The Viper, Randy Orton. Triple H and Charlotte were right there at the side of Orton as he tried to become the first superstar to complete a modern day Triple Crown, but the Lunatic Fringe was able to take the advantage quickly. Orton and Ambrose tried to attack each other, with neither man able to put their opponent away. An RKO Outta Nowhere on Ambrose nearly got the win, but Ambrose got his foot on the rope as Triple H pushed it off, after the ref saw it and took Triple H and Charlotte out of the action. Ambrose's reprieve didn't come quickly enough, as the lights went out as they did- and the Wyatt Family was here. When the lights came back, both Orton and Ambrose were decimated- as Bray Wyatt, Luke Harper, Dylan Vachon and Quentin Marsh teamed up on both men. Sister Abigail by Wyatt was hit on Ambrose as Orton got triple teamed, with Bray Wyatt kneeling over both men as the show ended.

Smackdown, December 12. Smackdown started with 8-person tag action, as The Four Broskis took on The Hart Dynasty. Zack Ryder was able to get an early advantage for his allies, punishing Tyson Kidd and trying to get himself back into the mix for the United States Championship. This was followed as The Big O held court on David Hart Smith and trying to show that he deserved to be half of the WWE Tag Team Champions. However, this success failed quickly as Natalya took an advantage on Bianca Ferrari, punishing her relentlessly as Ferrari tried to counteract the veteran Diva. Natalya took an advantage, tagging in to Owen Kidd as Ferrari tagged to Enzo Amore. Amore tried fighting the newest Hart Dynasty member, but Owen Kidd brought out an insane level of high flying, and unfortunately, you can't teach 'dat. Owen Kidd got a Springboard Elbow Drop on Amore, getting the big victory for his team as the Hart Dynasty celebrated. Damien Sandow was on jobber duty when the show went back to the ring, waiting for his opponent, as Scott Dawson headed to the ring to some scattered cheers. Kendall Skye was high-fiving the fans and firing cap guns as the crowd gave a slightly bigger cheer. Sandow hadn't done much in a while and was trying to get back on track...and it wasn't happening tonight. Dawson got a powerbomb on Sandow, getting the big victory in a relative squash. The tag division has been heating up, as Big Show and Colin Cassady fought in a non-title match against Anderson Duke and Luke Gallows of 3 Man Bullet. Finn Balor, Baron Corbin, and Ariel were at ringside to help their partners- which was a good thing, as Enzo Amore and The Big O were right there to help even the odds and keep them out of the matchup. Big Show and Big Cass tried to fight back, but the two 3 Man Bullet members were too relentless with their assault. Luke Gallows fought back, hitting a Twelfth Step on the Big Show and putting the 3 Man Bullet members in the thick of the title hunt too. This was for a good thing, as the Returning Kings attacked the two of them- as Big Show and Colin Cassady said if you three teams are so tough, they're not afraid. At TLC, they'll take on all three teams with the titles on the line! With the Nexus having mostly been decimated by defections and suspensions, Bad News Barrett and his apparently only ally, Heath Slater, headed out to the ring to take on Mr.Money in the Bank, Cody Rhodes, a man losing most of his allies too. Whether or not Slater and DiBiase could swap stories about what it's like to go from a stable to a lackey was besides the point, as Barrett and Rhodes kept fighting in the ring and trying to take advantage on the other one. Barrett was able to punish Rhodes with a number of big strikes, and went for the Bullhammer- but Cody Rhodes countered with the 'briefcase shot right in the kisser.' Barrett went down, as Cody Rhodes got a big victory. Jimmy Uso had a big matchup with his cousin, Roman Reigns. The announcers talked about how both guys had huge matchups at TLC, as Jimmy Uso would go head to head with his own twin brother, J. Enterprise, for the Intercontinental Title, while Roman Reigns would go head to head with Uso's new running buddy Big E Langston. Uso and Reigns went on the attack, with Reigns trying to go easy on his cousin. Jimmy Uso, however, proved that wasn't his idea by throwing a nice superkick party on Reigns. Reigns tried going easy, but Uso's attack was too much as Reigns finally threw caution to the wind, and answered it with a Superman Punch party. Roman looked strong all over Uso, getting a spear to defeat him. After the match, Reigns celebrated as Jimmy Uso glared at Reigns. Backstage, Eva Marie was walking- as Sasha Banks showed up and mocked her. How pathetic can Eva Marie possibly be? She's got Stephanie McMahon openly pulling the strings and promising her she can be the next Divas' Champion, but she can't beat anyone. Who's next for this Divas' Title qualifying match tonight, anyway- and what would Stephanie have to do in order to give Eva Marie a win? Eva Marie got in Sasha's face, and Sasha said to face facts. Stephanie's USING YOU. She used US. I had enough time to think about it while I was suspended, and I realized that to be the Boss, you have to TAKE OUT the Boss. Maybe you're fine with being Stephanie's charity case...but then, there's no way you could actually compete if you weren't. Eva Marie looked back at Sasha, as she called Stephanie and said "I'm still getting in the title match, right?" This tied into the next Divas' Qualifier- as Eva Marie headed down the ramp to the ring, as Stephanie McMahon showed up and said that she was not an ogre- she was all about giving chances to new talent as well as old ones. She's given all these chances to a great young talent like Eva Marie who's on the verge- and to celebrate, tonight she was giving three NXT Divas a chance to qualify for the Divas' Title match against Eva Marie. This brought out Sofia Cortez, the former Lizzy Valentine (sold as 'Baby Swinger' on the chyron), and the former Foxy Foxxxy (sold as 'Candy Bush' on the chyron), as we had...well, a dire match. Bush and Eva Marie traded bad slaps and kicks on one side, as Cortez and Swinger actually put on a semi-watchable match. Eva Marie tried fighting the matchup, but Cortez took an advantage on Swinger. Cortez and Swinger looked- then each clocked Eva Marie and Bush and punished them. The two hit Shining Wizards on each of the weaker ones, as Sofia Cortez got a slightly quicker pinfall on Eva Marie. The crowd cheered as Sofia Cortez celebrated- just as Stephanie McMahon came to the ring and said now THIS has gone on long enough. She's tried putting Eva Marie in four matches so she can go out there, win the Divas' Title, and then immediately surrender the belt back to Stephanie- but she can't even win against second-rate NXT wrestlers like these? Stephanie should have realized- if she wants something done right, she has to do it herself...so she is. Stephanie immediately overturned the match result, saying Eva Marie won the match and qualifies for the Divas' Title match because Stephanie McMahon SAID SO, that's why! Eva Marie celebrated as if she just got a win- as Stephanie said that if they win, now it'll be a real challenge. Paige, Bayley, Naomi- they may have an advantage, but now there'll be a real challenge to equalize this- the Divas Title will be on the line in a TLC Match! In the main event, Antonio Cesaro and Paige teamed up and took on Big E Langston and Naomi. Paige and Naomi started the match against each other, giving a preview of their four-way. Giving more of a preview to that four-way, Naomi called to Big E to take out the announce table, as Big E cleared it out. Paige started to attack Naomi more, keeping her out of that risk- then tagging in Cesaro. Cesaro started to attack Big E, as the two traded vicious strength moves with each other in an attempt to punish each other. Big E took an advantage, brutalizing Cesaro with powerful assaults as Cesaro tried fighting back. Big E finally tagged Naomi back in as Cesaro tagged in Paige, only for Naomi to take the advantage. Naomi struck on Paige, using a number of vicious moves to take her out. Rear View by Naomi, and then Paige was in a bad way. Naomi took Paige and put her on the announce table, then grabbed a ladder and set it up. Naomi then took a chair, then climbed the ladder- then the crowd gave a huge cheer as Naomi hit an Arabian Skullcrusher on Paige through the announce table. Paige was out for the count, as Naomi barely got in the ring for the countout victory. After the match, Big E and Naomi celebrated- before Sheamus came to the ring. Sheamus looked at the destruction as EMTs came out to check on Paige... ...but as Big E and Naomi walked off, Sheamus ignored them and Brogue Kicked Cesaro. Sheamus grabbed Cesaro, then hit a Celtic Cross on him as he stood aloft as the show ended...

WWE NETWORK EXCLUSIVE: 2014 SLAMMY AWARD PRE-SHOW:
On the WWE Network Slammy Awards Pre-Show, Josh Mathews and Chris Jericho were getting the crowd fired up for a special, airing some of the big Slammy Awards before the live show on Raw. The first award presenters came to the crowds' cheers- Scott Hall, Kevin Nash, and Hulk Hogan were in the building- The NWO was running wild once more on WWE. Hogan talked about how the business was changed when he and the Outsiders took control of WCW, and in 2014 a series of great factions had ran wild this year- which led to the real question: WHATCHA GONNA DO, BROTHER, when the Faction of the Year Slammy Award runs wild? The nominees were revealed to the fans:
FACTION OF THE YEAR NOMINEES The Authority The Divas' Championship Committee The Four Broskis The Wyatt Family 3 Man Bullet Code of Solomon The Sacred Band of Thebes The British Invasion The Nexus
Kevin Nash took the envelope, and revealed the winners...
2014 FACTION OF THE YEAR: THE WYATT FAMILY
Bray Wyatt headed down the ramp alongside Luke Harper, Dylan Vachon, and Quentin Marsh...but none of the men touched the award. Bray Wyatt talked about how time may have softened the hearts of poison...but the poison still runs through his veins. That may be an honor- but all that glitters is not gold. Your golden calf is nothing more than a false idol, because there is only one piece of gold that really leads you to become a new face of fear- and that's a championship. Bray Wyatt doesn't need a false idol like a trophy- because on Sunday, he's going to take his real award when he wins his first World Championship and gets the power that will make the world fear him. FOLLOW THE BUZZARDS. The second award on the Pre-Show continued the action to the fans, as The Undertaker was back and brought a familiar face with him, as Kane made his return for the night to the fans' cheers. Kane's sabbatical wasn't mentioned, as Kane and The Undertaker talked about their problems as brothers- sometimes they are on the same page, but most times they're not- but that's what made them great rivals. Tonight, they honor the best rivalry of the year, revealing the nominees...
RIVALRY OF THE YEAR NOMINEES: Cena vs. Cesaro Cody Rhodes vs. Goldust Paige vs. Stephanie McMahon Paul Heyman and Brock Lesnar vs. The World
Kane took the envelope, then read the winner...
2014 RIVALRY OF THE YEAR: JOHN CENA vs. ANTONIO CESARO
Nikki Bella headed onstage and took the Slammy, then said that this was the ultimate tragedy to start off WWE Week. In a perfect world, her boyfriend, John Cena, would be the man who could take this honor and show the world how great he was for all the peasants in this crowd- turning a worthless crybaby loser who couldn't even go toe to toe with Brock Lesnar, and somehow, some way, making all of the people who couldn't believe in a hero like John Cena galvanize all of their unjust hatred to pretend that crybaby loser mattered. Unfortunately, by a rare miss by the greatest general manager of all time, Stephanie McMahon, John Cena has still been suspended for his psychiatric evaluations. Nikki Bella hasn't been suspended, though, and she can tell all the fans on her boyfriend's behalf: John Cena's not the crazy one- it's the WORLD that's crazy for taking Antonio Cesaro's side over a great hero like Cena, and Nikki Bella hopes that 2015 sees this world come to its senses. Following Cena's girlfriend up, Cena's business consultaiPaul Heyman headed down the ramp to present the Extreme Moment of the year. Heyman said it was a laugh for him- that despite these fans still believing in him as just the star of ECW, even though he gives the greatest stable of real talent instead of whatever people he could trick fools like you into believing were hardcore legends, he felt it necessary to give an award for the most Extreme Moment of the Year...
EXTREME MOMENT OF THE YEAR NOMINEES: Cesaro throws Cena off the cell Bray Wyatt threatens to throw Roman Reigns off the Cell Batista Powerbombs Triple H EAT. SLEEP. SUPLEX. REPEAT. Dylan Vachon drops Hell in a Cell Brock Lesnar calls his shot The Code of Solomon Debut
Paul Heyman took the envelope- then held up the Slammy Award himself. You see, he didn't even need to call out this, because there is never any doubt. There were two great Extreme Moments by his client, Brock Lesnar, this year- and there is no good way to choose them. And while technically, the wannabes at the WWE App may have chosen one of the options- there is no way to choose the Most Extreme Moment this year for my client, Brock Lesnar. My Client, Brock Lesnar, broke the Undertaker's Streak at Wrestlemania! My Client, Brock Lesnar, became the first man ever to announce the moment that he was going to cash in Money in the Bank BEFORE the match occurred, and go on to win the match, call that shot in the same night, and STILL succeed to win the title. My client, Brock Lesnar, took on nine other men in a match where they had simple dumb luck on their side to potentially win the title, and my client, Brock Lesnar, proved not only is he a demigod in the ring, he's also LUCKY enough to keep his title as well. And on Sunday, my client, Brock Lesnar, will have his encore when he finishes Goldust's Last Stand, and when Goldust picks the splinters out of his body will know my client, Brock Lesnar, just ended his career. Even if the fans picked ONE Extreme Moment, my client, Brock Lesnar, is a walking Extreme Moment of the Year- and while they may give him one, they're all the same to him!
Extreme Moment of the Year: BROCK LESNAR, just...Brock Lesnar.
The Slammy Award Pre-Show ended with that promo as the full show began...

RAW- THE WWE SLAMMY AWARDS, December 15. The Slammy Awards started off with a bang, as we had our first award of the live event- as Goldust came to the ring. Goldust talked about how if there's one thing that defined this year so far, it was double-crosses. This year, people found out that no one could be trusted in the WWE- and Goldust couldn't be happier. When his brother turned his back on him in May and joined Evolution, Goldust thought it could be the end of his career- but he found out this was finally the beginning of his career, and Sunday when he takes Brock Lesnar into a Tables Match, his career won't end, it'll reach its pinnacle. At long last, the history books will truly never forget the name of...GOLDUST. Goldust announced the nominees for Double-Cross of the Year...
2014 Double-Cross of the Year Nominees: John Cena joins Paul Heyman Cody Rhodes joins Evolution Jimmy Uso turns on Jey Uso Nikki Bella turns on The Rock Tyson Kidd turns on Justin Gabriel
Goldust opened the envelope, and...
2014 DOUBLE CROSS OF THE YEAR: JOHN CENA JOINS PAUL HEYMAN
Goldust looked at the Slammy, and said (to a chorus of cheers) "John Cena cannot be here tonight"...but Nikki Bella was. Unfortunately, the crowd heard all of this on the Slammy Award Pre-Show, and Nikki Bella was just saying the same things she said there- but, well, it's only the WWE Network, maybe there's people not paying $9.99! for the Network to have heard her spiel yet, so...you cheapskates will be able to get to see the promo, and if you're not...well, you heard her rehearse this one, I guess. The award for Biggest Shocker of the Year got our first shocker of the night, as Jerry "The King" Lawler made his first return to the WWE since his retirement- and was joined by an equal shocker as well- his old nemesis-turned-Hall of Fame inductor, William Shatner. Shatner simply said "Well, anything can happen in the WWE", and Lawler agreed that this was the case in 2014. It's a new era for WWE, and there may come a day none of these things would be shocking in the least...but for now, let's go to the nominees.
2014 Shocker of the Year Nominees: Finn Balor pins Sheamus Cena Turns Heel The Kings Return Charlotte wins the Cruiserweight Title Yoshi Tatsu wins the US Title Saraya Knight interferes on her daughter's behalf Finn Balor takes control of 3MB
Shatner opened the envelope...
2014 SHOCKER OF THE YEAR: THE KINGS RETURN
The Returning Kings came down the ramp and celebrated. Donny Sparkle talked about what an honor it was to be here alongside a fellow King and, even better, a cast member of Star Trek, as DynamicSensation talked about how this was the greatest moment in WWE history. For months, they thought that the crowd were just another pack of worthless normals who couldn't see what two nice guys like them had to offer, but now they finally knew- the WWE Universe recognized them as the Kings they became...and right there, Jerry Lawler got in DynamicSensation's face. Lawler said that he may make some jokes about the Divas, but every woman in this company knows he kids because he cares. Ever since he retired, he watched WWE hoping for a man he could be proud of to finally pass the mantel of King along, and he was hoping one day he could be back here to crown the next King of the WWE- but then he watched Raw and Smackdown, only to find the title of King was taken by a couple of two-bit pencil-necked geeks who spend their time attacking the women because they're too afraid of what a real man could do to them. Lawler said he's happily retired, but he's been waiting for the moment he could go face to face with you two and teach you what a King is SUPPOSED to act like, and it's great they won this award, because Stephanie McMahon allowed him to make a match tonight- you two up against any opponents I choose- and if they win, I get two minutes with the two of you....judging by the way you act, that's all you'd last for anyways. The Returning Kings looked towards it, as Lawler said that one of the two teams who WWE.com announced would be in your title match is going in...and that match was next... ...and it wasn't a good choice for The Returning Kings, as 3 Man Bullet members Luke Gallows and Anderson Duke took the challenge on the two. The team had just put themselves into contention for the tag titles- and with Baron Corbin, Finn Balor, and Ariel at their side, the two were more than able to attack. Donny Sparkle tried- repeat, TRIED- to counteract them, as DynamicSensation tried going to the outside and move towards Ariel. Ariel looked at him, then slapped him- as DynamicSensation was enraged. DynamicSensation grabbed Ariel and went for the Kingslayer- but Finn Balor hit him in the gut, as Ariel was dropped. She ran backstage as Baron Corbin hit the End of Days on DynamicSensation to the outside- followed by a Twelfth Step by Gallows and a Spinning Spinebuster by Duke for Sparkle to be beaten. After the match, The Returning Kings were beaten- as Jerry Lawler and WIlliam Shatner rushed on them. Sparkle grabbed the loaded doll and tried motioning to attack Shatner, who hit a low blow on him. Jerry Lawler dropped the strap and struck. Piledriver to DynamicSensation, Piledriver to Donny Sparkle, and both Returning Kings were beaten by the...other...returning King. William Shatner and Jerry Lawler celebrated as the crowd cheered... Chris Jericho headed to the podium for the next award, to announce the Most Improved Superstar. If there's one great thing about the WWE in 2014, everyone on the roster stepped their game up. Vince McMahon may have asked Steve Austin if anyone was willing to grab the brass ring this year...well, it's impossible to deny that these ten nominees did just that this year, making their way to become ten of the stars of tomorrow. Jericho went to the nominees..
2014 Most Improved Superstar Nominees: Zack Ryder Eva Marie Darren Young Tyson Kidd Cody Rhodes Antonio Cesaro Justin Gabriel Connor O'Brian Fandango Heath Slater
Jericho opened the envelope...
2014 MOST IMPROVED SUPERSTAR: ANTONIO CESARO
Antonio Cesaro came to the podium and thanked the fans for picking him, saying that he doesn't usually like to be called 'just' the Most Improved Superstar. Every one of the nominees improved, but he had been working this hard for years. To Cesaro, this award symbolizes the rewards that come from hard work. If you work hard enough- maybe the rewards won't come today, maybe it won't come tomorrow- but eventually, your hard work will be rewarded and you'll get everything you could ever ask for- and THAT is what this award means to him... ...which was hard to see, as Sheamus headed down to the podium and Brogue Kicked Cesaro down. Sheamus kept up the attack, hitting a Celtic Cross on Cesaro, as he was left bloodied by Sheamus's assault. Medical staff tended to Cesaro as Sheamus took the award and gave a speech. Sheamus said that in Ireland in days of old, royalty didn't get the crown by popular vote, they got it by the tip of a sword- you want the best, you take out the one who had it before. Sheamus would like to thank the people who made this possible. First, he wanted to thank Paige. He may have been a bit of a loser these last few weeks. And maybe she rejected him last Monday- but he has to thank her. He wouldn't have wanted someone who acted the way he had been all this time either. And Sheamus will admit, when she said no- he's a big boy, he can handle rejection- but rejection will hurt anyone. But when it hurt- THAT was when Sheamus looked in the mirror...and that's why Sheamus had to thank one man- Finn Balor. For months now, Finn Balor had been coming after him. Finn Balor called him just a leprechaun. He said that Sheamus had gotten soft in time, the fans had weakened him up- he wasn't the Celtic Warrior he used to be. And last week after it happened, when he was hurt- that was when Sheamus could finally look in the mirror and realize- Finn Balor was absolutely right about him. Sheamus HAD gotten soft. Sheamus HAD gotten weak. Sheamus didn't have that same fire that made him a superstar- that made him the first Irish-born WWE Champion, that made him one of the biggest superstars in the WWE. Sheamus...was a JOKE. Now, though, Sheamus's eyes have been opened. He's finally BACK, he's finally ready to be a big dog. The Most Improved Superstar- it won't be Antonio Cesaro, it'll be Sheamus. The Celtic Warrior's back in the saddle- and he's going to prove it this Sunday. He wants Cesaro because he's the baddest dog in this yard right now, and he's going to put Cesaro down and make his way back to the top where he belongs. Meanwhile, backstage, Hideo Itami and Ric Flair were backstage alongside five popular NXT acts to announce the WWE App poll for the NXT Superstar of the Year- The British Invasion, The Famous Monsters, The Sacred Band of Thebes, JL McKay, and Mal Ukafa. Flair announced that this award will be more than just a "WWE App Poll"- the Slammy Award winner will receive a live tryout match next (with Flair slipping and calling it a "GutCheck" match as if it wasn't obvious enough a ripoff). On the stage, Shawn Michaels and Dennis Haskins headed out with the Slammy. Haskins talked about even as just a principal on TV or in NXT, it's always a bittersweet moment when one of your kids gets to graduate- and whoever wins the Slammy for NXT Superstar of the Year has their best chance possible to graduate. Shawn said that no matter which one wins tonight, they've all proven themselves able to compete with the best competition on NXT- whether it's a tag team, a Diva, or a Superstar, NXT wrestlers have been assimilating to the WWE roster and competing at a very high level in 2014. It's likelier than you think that by this time next year, British Invasion, Famous Monsters, or Sacred Band of Thebes could do the same things Colin Cassady has done and become WWE Tag Team Champions, it's not unlikely that JL McKay could become the next Paige or Sasha Banks, and it's not unlikely Mal Ukafa could be the next Brock Lesnar. Haskins turned to the video wall, and waited for the WWE App Vote to determine the NXT Superstar of the Year...
2014 NXT Superstar of the Year VOTING RESULTS: The British Invasion- 5% The Famous Monsters- 28% The Sacred Band of Thebes- 8% JL McKay- 30% Mal Ukafa- 29%
2014 NXT Superstar DIVA OF THE YEAR: JL MCKAY
The crowd gave a cheer as, by a very narrow margin with only one percentage point separating the top three, JL McKay headed down the ramp for a huge GutCheck match. McKay's good friend Emma danced down the ramp as Sheila kept watch for the two, as they waited for her opponent. Stephanie McMahon then came to the ring and said that she's looked long and hard for the opponent, and she's sure that if a NXT Diva like JL McKay can beat a good WWE Diva opponent, she'll get her WWE contract. This brought out Sasha Banks, who wasn't that thrilled to be the whipping girl in this match (as JBL talked about how on NXT, Sasha herself was the one who brought McKay into the WWE in the first place.) The two women shook hands, before trying to put on a good match with neither one particularly taking an advantage. Stephanie McMahon called to Emma and Sheila to attack Sasha- but neither one were willing to. Stephanie, unhappy about the lack of an attack, finally sent Naomi, Eva Marie, and Nikki Bella to jump Sasha Banks. Emma and Sheila tried to help their opponent- but the beating was too much. JL McKay covered Sasha for the big three count, as Stephanie said that she may have gotten the win- but since she wouldn't help beat down a traitor like Sasha Banks, she's STILL not getting promoted. McKay turned to Stephanie, then said "If being a Diva means being your lapdog? I think I'd rather stay on NXT", before she and her allies headed to the back. The award for Upset of the Year came out, as we had a bit of an upset- a second appearance on Raw for 2014 by Aaron Paul, as he was joined by Mr. Money in the Bank, Cody Rhodes. Paul said that this year, a number of big superstars stepped their game up right when it counted the most- as Cody Rhodes said that the only upset this year was that he still had a career after "Breaking Bad" ended. These upsets are just that...Upsets. But the real talent shines through in more than just one match- and the briefcase Cody Rhodes has is proof when he cashes it in, it will be no upset- it'll be the coronation of the next great WWE Superstar. The nominees were shown...
2014 Upset of the Year Nominees: NXT Champion Adrian Neville defeats John Cena DynamicSensation eliminates The Undertaker Marellions of Dollars defeat The Wyatt Family to win the Tag Team Titles Hideo Itami defeats Triple H and takes his power Goldust becomes the Sole Survivor Antonio Cesaro wins the WWE Title in a Six-Man Tag Match he Wasn't Supposed to Be In Paige eliminates Randy Orton at Survivor Series
Paul opened the envelope:
2014 UPSET OF THE YEAR: WINNER: ADRIAN NEVILLE d. JOHN CENA
The fans waited, as Paul Heyman headed out to accept the award. Heyman said that unfortunately, neither man could be here tonight to accept this, so Paul Heyman must accept it on their behalf. As WWE.com pointed out a couple weeks ago, we had living proof that this upset was not what it was cracked up to be, as Adrian Neville was unfortunately suspended for a violation of the WWE Wellness Policy. While he cannot fault a man like Neville for choosing to go to rehab for this problem, it is more proof that a man like Adrian Neville beating John Cena could only happen through the use of performance enhancers. Meanwhile, John Cena is not here for less reasonable views. Stephanie McMahon, unfortunately, suspended John Cena for being angry at Antonio Cesaro for his being human. My client, John Cena, has now learned it is not a failing of Antonio Cesaro for not defeating my client, Brock Lesnar- it is a failing of God for making a dominant force like Brock Lesnar in the first place that even He would be unable to defeat. Unfortunately, we will see this failure again on Sunday. Goldust has had a great career- but his time is over- on Sunday, we will see the end of one great career in Goldust, while he becomes another speed bump on the way to Brock Lesnar retiring as WWE World Heavyweight Champion. That's not a Prediction, that's a SPOILER. The Funniest Moment of the Year came out, as Bayley headed to the ring with a friend- star of Jingle All the Way 2, Santino Marella. Santino and Bayley talked about how funny Jingle All The Way is, as Bayley wished she could have said Hug That to hyping the movie up, as Santino talked about how the WWE was as funny as "Larry the TV Man" was (I love shoot comments yadda yadda.) The Nominees were shown...
2014 Funniest Moment of the Year Nominees: El Torito qualifies into Championship Scramble Solomon Crowe's videos Paige vs. Eva Marie Edendust The Bo-Lievers EmmaDango
Bayley took the envelope...
2014 FUNNIEST MOMENT OF THE YEAR: EL TORITO QUALIFIES FOR THE CHAMPIONSHIP SCRAMBLE
El Torito headed to the ring and celebrated, twerking (which made it more awkward as Bayley hugged him.) El Torito didn't speak as he held up the Slammy- only for Charlotte to head to the ring and say this was exactly the problem with WWE. They give unworthy challengers shots at the WWE World Heavyweight Championship and ignore the real stars, as if even a midget who's a man is a better World Heavyweight Championship contender than the daughter of the greatest wrestler of all time and the first woman to win a men's championship. This is proof of how backwards the WWE is, and how there is no social justice in this world if a woman like Charlotte can't fight Brock Lesnar but something like...like THAT CAN. El Torito twerked as Santino said "What is this? Little Jimmy has fallen into the well again?" El Torito shook his head as Santino said "Oh, El Torito, he wants the Aaron Rodgers car insurance!" as Bayley looked and said "I think El Torito wants a shot at your Cruiserweight Title." Santino shrugged and said "That makes more of the sense- El Torito is not a lizard!" as the match began...and Charlotte started out with a big attack on El Torito. El Torito, however, was able to fight Charlotte's attacks with a number of amazing high flying moves, dazzling Charlotte with what he was able to bring out. Charlotte tried to fight back, but El Torito had too much for the champion. A Bullacanrana later, and El Torito became the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion. After the match, El Torito celebrated- as Charlotte threw a temper tantrum and shouted "It's unfair! He's a man! He shouldn't have been facing me!" as the crowd booed Charlotte- and booed her more as Charlotte began attacking El Torito from behind. Charlotte hit a Bow Down to the Queen, then locked the Figure Four on El Torito as he screamed out and road agents pulled Charlotte off of the baby bull. The Rookie of the Year voting started up, as Dennis Rodman came to the podium. Rodman did what he always did, talking about the Rodman Second-World Tour running wild all over the WWE, and how this was just proof of the great rookies throughout the WWE, like his brother from another mother...but he was just one of the many great rookies who made a name for themselves in 2014. This brought out the nominees...
2014 Rookie of the Year Nominees: Alexander Rusev Paige Sami Zayn Colin Cassady Finn Balor Hideo Itami Bo Dallas Charlotte Solomon Crowe Adrian Neville
Rodman took the envelope- then threw it out. Why is it even a question this year: We all know the People's Republic's choice for the Rookie of the Year- Rodman gotta give the people what they want- it's his boy, it's your boy- it's the 2014 Rookie of the Year: Alexander Rusev!
2014 ROOKIE OF THE YEAR: ALEXANDER RUSEV
This brought out Lana and Alexander Rusev. Lana thanked Dennis Rodman for his support, and much like Kim Jong-Un supports Vladimir Putin, so too can his friendship help Rusev crush all who stand in front of him. Rusev has dominated, he has destroyed, and he has proven the power of Russia and been the perfect representative to bring Vladimir Putin's power to the world. Sunday, Daniel Bryan sees the pain of Rusev's might firsthand. It is not his fault when Rusev ends his career- it is the fault of Daniel Bryan. He could have any woman in the world, he could have chosen a strong, Russian woman who could give him the power to become an A+ player and not a weak American- but he chose Brie Bella, a weak American who's ankle would snap at the simple touch of a Russian woman's power. Daniel Bryan's chivalry has killed him- if it was only Lana he faced, he would merely get out with his career ending, but Rusev will seal the YES! Movement in a tomb forever. The Tag Team of the Year Award was up next, and we had a slightly different change at the podium, as Kermit the Frog was there alongside Hornswoggle. Kermit said that this year, Hornswoggle and him made a great team in "Muppets: Most Wanted", as Hornswoggle agreed and said if it wasn't for his worthless half-sister, he's sure he could have finally won the Tag Titles this year alongside his good friend and the new WWE Cruiserweight Champion, El Torito. The nominees were announced:
2014 Tag Team of the Year Nominees: Big Show and Colin Cassady Adrian Neville and Justin Gabriel Marellions of Dollars The Wyatt Family The Usos Miguel Khalifa and Titus O'Neil The Hart Dynasty The Returning Kings Enzo Amore and The Big O The Vaudevillains
Hornswoggle opened the envelope and handed it to Kermit...
2014 TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR: THE WYATT FAMILY
The Wyatt Family came out en masse, as Luke Harper looked at the Slammy Award and tried biting into it. Bray Wyatt talked about how dominant a unit the Wyatt Family were, and that their power is rising as the new year starts, and a new face of fear debuts. This brought out the team of Big Show and Colin Cassady- as Cassady claims that this was a load of crap. Erick Rowan and Luke Harper were the best team of the year, not the Wyatt Family. Bray Wyatt said Erick Rowan was weak, and they merely cut the weak link to become stronger. Colin Cassady said he's the Tag Champion- and if you want to prove how good they are, come fight us tonight, capiche? That led to a match as Big Show headed out to the ring, as Vachon and Harper brutalized Big Cass. Big Show didn't get on the apron, trying to make Cassady learn a lesson about running his mouth too much. The two Wyatt Family members punished Cassady with a series of vicious moves. A Asiatic Spike by Vachon was followed by a sit-out powerbomb by Harper, and we had new Tag Team Champions- and they were an NXT Tag Team. Big Show shouted to Cassady "Where's your big mouth NOW?" before walking out in disgust. Bo Dallas came to the podium followed by a group of people leaving the Bo-Liever Bus, as Dallas talked about how the Comeback of the Year Award was the most important award for any fan, simply because it's not just a wrestling award, but a life award. Each of these men were once regular superstars on the WWE roster, but had their dreams taken away from them. They got to this point not just by their talent, but because they knew if you fall down, you have to get right back on the horse- and they did, and their dreams came true once again. All because they just had to BO-LIEVE! The nominees were shown...
2014 Comeback of the Year Nominees: Goldust Alex Riley David Hart Smith Ted DiBiase Connor O'Brian
Dallas took the mic...
2014 COMEBACK OF THE YEAR: GOLDUST
Goldust headed to the ring, as Bo Dallas went for a hug- as Goldust taunted to him. Goldust said that while this award is nice, he really doesn't want to spend too much time focusing on it. To Goldust, he can't rest on his laurels of the last year this week, because it's all down to this. This time on Monday, either Goldust will be in his first day as a retired pro wrestler...or Goldust will have truly made this the comeback of a lifetime by coming to Raw as the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion. He is sorry about this, but he'll save his speech to thank the fans as the World Champion. The Diva of the Year Award came with a surprise, as NXT Superstar J-Woww came to the ring to award it. J-Woww added to the whole surprise, as her "Jersey Shore" castmate Snooki gave an interview while recovering from the knee injury that ended her career. Snooki talked about how she finally found out that wrestling's too tough for her, and while her career ended, she's still proud to be a member of the WWE Universe and a former NXT Women's Champion. Even if she can't be the next Diva of the Decade like her first trainer, Trish Stratus, was one of these girls will definitely do that, as they brought out the nominees...
2014 DIVA OF THE YEAR AWARD NOMINEES: Brie Bella Paige Stephanie McMahon Nikki Bella Charlotte Naomi Sasha Banks Alexa Bliss Bayley Eva Marie
J-Woww opened the envelope...
2014 DIVA OF THE YEAR: PAIGE
Paige headed out to the ring and said that she couldn't even put her feelings into words. She knew that there'd be a world of difference coming from NXT to the WWE, but she knew she would be able to survive and thrive with all the great WWE Divas this year...but to be named Diva of the Year in her rookie year was the greatest honor she could ever achieve...and from there, Stephanie McMahon and Eva Marie came down the ramp. Stephanie McMahon took the mic and said that justice has wept today. She always thought America was the greatest country in the world, but tonight she has living proof that democracy simply doesn't work. But she shouldn't blame it. I mean, she knows no member of the WWE Universe would ever have even their own mothers agree to spend time with them without feeling obligated to, so of course they would become misogynists as a result of it. If these people were true feminists, or even smarter than a group of brain-damaged apes, they would have given this award to a true feminist icon and a role model for women everywhere. They'd look past some 22 year old chav harlot who pretends to be a pale goth hot mess because she thinks it'd make more of these creeps coo over her, and give it to a woman who's proven her success in the ring, her success in the board room, her success as a wife and mother- a woman who truly proved that yes, it is possible to have it all in life. I guess she should have known that if the WWE Universe are this dumb, they don't deserve the right to vote. Therefore, in a great victory for women everywhere, she's righting the wrong that democracy caused. It's her pleasure to announce that, much like she stripped Paige of the Divas' Title before she unfortunately gets her rematch this Sunday, Stephanie McMahon is stripping the Slammy Award for Diva of the Year from her and awarding it to the only Diva who truly deserves the honor- herself. Stephanie wrested the Slammy from Paige's hands, held it up, and did a mom dance to the crowd's boos as Paige glared at Stephanie...
2014 DIVA OF THE YEAR WINNER: Paige STEPHANIE MCMAHON
Finally, the biggest award of the year was up for grabs, the 2014 Superstar of the Year...and to make it big, we had the biggest superstars to do it- Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Rock. The Rock talked about how...well, first The Rock finally has come back to Greenville! The Rock, and Steve Austin- they were the greatest superstars of all time. And The Rock, he does not like Steve Austin, and Steve Austin does not like The Rock, but The Rock respects Steve Austin. Steve Austin respects The Rock, because they made it to a level where they became an icon of this industry. And these men who were nominated- they are on the verge of being an icon in this industry. Without further ado, the nominees...
SUPERSTAR OF THE YEAR NOMINEES: John Cena Antonio Cesaro Daniel Bryan Goldust Brock Lesnar Hideo Itami Roman Reigns Cody Rhodes Randy Orton Zack Ryder
The two men opened the envelope, as The Rock said "Are you sure?", with Steve Austin saying "Yeah, looks like it." The two men turned, and said "Antonio Cesaro!" "Brock Lesnar!" The Rock turned to Steve Austin and said, no, my friend, you must be joking. You see, the PEOPLE chose the Superstar of the Year, and the People chose the Swiss Superman! The first Swiss-born WWE World Heavyweight Champion! The man who has beaten John Cena's monkey ass up and down the world and finally, at long last, send him back to Bedrock with the rest of the Fruity Pebbles gang! The man who could get The Rock back into a ring, just to ally with him- and I know Texas is a language all its own, but there's five others to say your Superstar of the Year, Antonio Cesaro! Austin looked at Rock, and said "What?*" You're saying that?* Superstar of the Year?* Best of 2014?* The MAN*? The franchise player?* The face of WWE?* Antonio Cesaro*? Cesaro's good*. I like him*. Great wrestler*. Great power*. Too Swiss*. Great hand*. But this is 2014.* The year of the Beast.* Beat The Undertaker*. Broke The Streak*. 21-1.* Won Money in the Bank*. Called his shot in.* Before the MITB match happened*. Never done*. Cesaro knew he's coming*. Still beat Cesaro*. Won the title*. Beat Ryback*. Beat Cesaro again*. Cena helped him*. Still beat Cesaro*. Championship Scramble*. Nine other guys*. Beat them*.WWE World Heavyweight Champion*. The Beast*. The Demigod*. 2014 Superstar of the Year, Brock Lesnar! The Rock smirked at Austin, and said If this is the case...there's a tie between these two for Superstar of the Year...we need a tiebreaker. And The Rock says- we don't need to sing it because our voices suck, we know that- let's have these two JUST BRING IT! Austin said "Now, you're speaking my language", as Austin and Rock shook hands, and we had a match as Antonio Cesaro headed to the ring. This big plan excited the fans- but then, Paul Heyman headed to the ring. Unfortunately, even if this is for a prize like the Superstar of the Year, my client, Brock Lesnar, has a huge match on Sunday to defend a real prize like the WWE World Heavyweight Championship- and even if he didn't, my client, Brock Lesnar, is just too good to wrestle in Greenville, South Carolina. However, my client, Brock Lesnar, has allowed me to make suitable replacements to face Antonio Cesaro here tonight to get this award...and then Connor O'Brian, Mojo Rawley, and Bull Dempsey headed to the ring and attacked Cesaro. Cesaro fought back against the three, starting his attack on O'Brian. O'Brian was no match for Cesaro, as a big Neutralizer took him out of the picture. Mojo Rawley tried fighting back- he got 20 rotations of the Cesaro Swing and another Neutralizer, as the attack went on. Bull Dempsey fought Cesaro hard, punishing him with basic attacks as Cesaro tried to fight back. Cesaro got an advantage and hit the Cesaro Swing on him for 15 more rotations...but before he could do anything, Paul Heyman took the mic. See..he was kind of off a bit, all the training and awards Paul Heyman Guys got this year...he forgot. He only said Brock Lesnar was too good to WRESTLE in this town...he didn't SAY Brock Lesnar wasn't IN THE BUILDING. There comes the pain, as Brock Lesnar headed to the ring, giving a huge reward to the fans in Greenville, South CarolinaSUPLEX CITY, BITCH. Population, Antonio Cesaro. Bull Dempsey's pinfall was academic.
2015 SUPERSTAR OF THE YEAR: BROCK LESNAR
After the match, Dempsey, Rawley, and O'Brian kept the attack going. Connor O'Brian grabbed a table and set it up as Brock Lesnar signalled...only for Goldust to attack. Goldust fought back as Cesaro tried to help fight him, as the two drove off the three other Paul Heyman Guys. Antonio Cesaro followed him, as Goldust was standing face to face with Brock Lesnar...and he wasn't happy. EAT. SLEEP. SUPLEX... BLOCKED? Goldust grabbed Lesnar and fought his way out, motioning to the outside, then Goldust clotheslined Lesnar over the top rope, sending him to the outside. Goldust kept fighting Lesnar, who powered his way out of it, until Goldust got to the table his allies set up- then kneed Lesnar in his weak gut. Lesnar doubled over, as Goldust grabbed Lesnar and Powerbombed Lesnar through the table as the crowd cheered. The show ended as Goldust shouted "SUNDAY!" and pointed towards the broken table and equally broken Lesnar.

SMACKDOWN, DECEMBER 19. Smackdown started off with Divas' action, as Bayley took on Eva Marie. The personal assistant of Stephanie McMahon had the best possible chance to get her losing streak snapped and also prove she belonged in Sunday's TLC match. Unfortunately, Stephanie McMahon's actions, combined with Eva Marie's own goals, had Bayley properly showing Eva she could Hug off. Bayley gave Eva Marie a first-class ticket to Hug City, which would have been easier to accept if Stephanie McMahon didn't suddenly say the suplex was a banned move, as was lockups, punches, kicks, and...really, any move Bayley could do except politely curtsying and laying down in the ring to let Eva Marie pin her. Eva Marie got the big win by Stephanie McMahon deciding she did- which brought out Paige to take the side of her good friend as they attacked Eva Marie. Naomi came to the ring to help Eva, as the four competitors in Sunday's TLC match feuded with each other. Connor O'Brian and Mojo Rawley had a squash match to dominate the Lucha Dragons. The monsters O'Brian and Rawley looked to punish the small men of Sin Cara and Kalisto, and indeed dominated the two for most of the match, punishing the two. Just as it seemed like all hope was lost, Sin Cara managed to duck a killing clothesline by Rawley, sending the Hype Man into O'Brian. A Senton Bomb onto Rawley was followed by a Salida del Sol on Connor O'Brian, as the Lucha Dragons had a massive upset. After the match, Paul Heyman blew a gasket, saying that Paul Heyman Guys would never lose to a team as bad as the Lucha Dragons and firing the two publicly. Following the shocking upset where he and his protege Colin Cassady lost the WWE Tag Team Titles, Big Show took on Baron Corbin of 3 Man Bullet. The rest of the group were on commentary during the match, as Finn Balor talked about how it doesn't matter to them whether they face the Wyatt Family or these two on Sunday- 3MB had just been fake for too long, and soon all the gold will be in the hands of some RRRRRRRREAL RockNRollas. Colin Cassady tried to get in the face of Balor, only for Luke Gallows and Anderson Duke to get in his. As the argument happened, it started to distract Big Show, which is the worst thing possible when you're in the ring with a man like Baron Corbin. End of Days followed as Big Show kept on his losing streak. After the match, 3 Man Bullet tried to attack Colin Cassady, only for Enzo Amore and The Big O ran in for the save, only for The Returning Kings hit them off at the pass as we had a big brawl for all of the teams. This Sunday's going to be hectic, that's for sure! After announcing how next week's Smackdown will be a big King of the Ring spectacular, Bo Dallas came to the ring and talked about how the King of the Ring is one of the greatest honors there is, and how he knows he can make the world a better place when he enters the King of the Ring tournament. He has the power to be a just king, to be a king the world can look up to. He'll win- all he has to do is Bo-Lieve. This led to Zack Ryder coming out to argue, saying that no King of the Ring could ever be a loser like him. See, Zack Ryder's finally back on track, he's kicked his butt all year, and 2015 is about to be the year of Zack Ryder- and the best way to make it his year is to end 2014 as the King of the Ring. Will this be the next plan for his rise to the top? Woo Woo Woo, you Know it. This was fighting words to Dallas, as Dallas and Ryder fought in a brutal battle. The two's chemistry in the ring was always there, as Ryder tried to keep Dallas at bay. Dallas's followers, mostly being formerly weird-costumed people, were far lower, as Enzo Amore, The Big O, and Bianca Ferrari kept Dallas out of the picture. Ryder went for a Broski Boot, but Bo Dallas scouted it and got out of the way. Ryder was more pissed and went for a Rough Ryder, but Dallas countered and hit a Bo-Dog to get the win. Dallas and all the Bo-Lievers did a victory lap as the crowd booed- but in one week, we could see the next King of the Ring! Backstage, Stephanie McMahon was doing work at her desk as Charlotte headed into her office and complained. Charlotte talked about how what happened on Monday night was the ultimate tragedy and the blackest moment in sports entertainment history. Stephanie McMahon agreed, saying it was great that finally someone else viewed it as being that bad. Charlotte continued and said that these fans couldn't accept it as being as terrible as it was, but seeing a bonafide legacy in this business and the gold standard of women in this industry being unfairly ruined by...by some utter joke who has no business being in their ring? That's the biggest injustice in the history of the world. Stephanie McMahon smiled and said she's very happy Charlotte believes that as well, when Charlotte said "then you agree that my loss against El Torito should be stricken from the record and I should be awarded the Cruiserweight Championship again? Thank you, Ms.McMahon!"- and this is where Stephanie snapped. Stephanie said she didn't care what happened to Charlotte on Monday- even if Stephanie got the 2014 Diva of the Year Slammy that she truly deserved, the biggest tragedy happened last week on Raw. Charlotte may not understand what real legacies in this business are, but she's Stephanie McMahon. One second of her as Divas' Champion is more meaningful than every one of Ric Flair's 16 World Championships combined- DO NOT compare her trifling little problems to Stephanie's. But, despite being Stephanie McMahon, last Monday was a tragedy. She is Stephanie McMahon, and yet on Monday, some...some two-bit NXT Diva dared to DEFY her. NO ONE defies Stephanie McMahon and gets away with it. If Stephanie McMahon says jump, you say how high. If Stephanie McMahon tells you to be her lapdog, you consider it the greatest honor in your pathetic little life that she will ALLOW YOU to be her lapdog.Things like THIS are the true tragedies in this sport, not the pathetic whining of some quitter who dared to walk away from the Divas' Championship Committee. Charlotte complained and said that she wanted to stay, but Stephanie's husband, Triple H, asked her to go to NXT with him and Randy Orton to watch her back. This news perked Stephanie McMahon up, as she finally turned to Charlotte- she's right. Charlotte IS on NXT now. If she's there...if Charlotte scratches Stephanie's back, she'll scratch Charlotte's...and if Charlotte can't do that? Stephanie will stab her in the back instead. Stephanie smiled and said "You want your Cruiserweight Title back from El Torito so badly? You get me JL McKay and MAKE HER fall in line to me. Do that, I'll strip that midget of the belt and award it back to you. You DON'T make her fall in line to me? You will NEVER get another shot at the Cruiserweight Title. Do you understand?" Charlotte nodded as the show went to break. In the main event, former Shield teammates Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins took on Big E Langston and Jimmy Uso. The announcers talked about how in addition to Big E Langston facing Roman Reigns this Sunday, all four men would also be in next week's King of the Ring tournament, and said that one of these four men could be the one to take the whole thing. Naomi was at ringside trying to keep her men focused, trying to keep her men from showing too much before Sunday, knowing in addition to Reigns's own match, his cousin and Jimmy's brother J. Enterprise was defending the Intercontinental TItle against Jimmy. The problems didn't work in this match, as Reigns and Rollins's teamwork led to the two destroying Big E and Jimmy Uso. Curbstomp on Big E, Spear on Jimmy, and The Shield had a big win to finish off Smackdown.

TABLES, LADDERS, CHAIRS PPV, December 21. The TLC Pre-Show was an NXT showcase, as NXT World Champion Dean Ambrose faced off with his toughest challenge as a champion to date in the form of the evil Bray Wyatt. Quentin Marsh was right at the side of Ambrose- but Ambrose had some backup of his own, as Seth Rollins headed out to the ring with a "Roman sends his regards", then helped his old friend handle the attack. Ambrose got a fair match with one of the only men as devious as him, while Quentin Marsh tried- repeat: TRIED- to handle Seth Rollins's assault on him. Bray Wyatt was worried, humming how he's got the whole world in his hands, only for Luke Harper and Dylan Vachon to head down the ramp. Rollins tried to fight off both men, but the attack was harder as Bray Wyatt began to take an advantage. Dean Ambrose was going down swinging if he had to go down, sending a series of big attacks on Dylan Vachon and brutalizing him as Harper got taken out by Rollins. Dylan Vachon tried to put away Ambrose- only for him to grab Vachon, then hit Dirty Deeds on him. Ambrose then went after Wyatt, who merely showed Ambrose how a crab walks as he went on the attack. Sister Abigail followed, as it was finally too much for Ambrose as Bray Wyatt became the new NXT World Champion. After the match, the Pre-Show ended as Luke Harper, Dylan Vachon, and Quentin Marsh looked as Bray Wyatt dropped to his knees in front of the NXT World Championship, then the four clasped hands as Bray Wyatt sang how he had the whole world in his hands around the belt. As TLC started up, ladders were around the entrance as the the United States Title was on the line in a ladder match, with Tyson Kidd of the Hart Dynasty taking on Finn Balor of 3 Man Bullet. Naturally, this led to some more people around them, as David Hart Smith, Owen Kidd, and Natalya were facing off on the outside with Ariel and Baron Corbin, Balor keeping the other wrestlers fighting back in order to not make a risk like Bray Wyatt did on the pre-show. Even with strength in numbers on Tyson's side, Baron Corbin, is Baron Corbin, and David Hart Smith and Owen Kidd die really nicely when Corbin gives them the End of Days. In the ring, Balor and Kidd tried a more technical, less high-spot oriented match, trying to defeat their foe before going up the ladder. This was helped by the outside battle, as the whole thing was cleaned up. Balor took an advantage, trying to punish Kidd with intense moves and make it more of a high-spotfest. Kidd didn't take the bait, preferring to wrestle his match. A ladder was brought into play by Finn Balor, but Kidd used it to try and beat Balor to a pulp instead of attacking. Owen Kidd took the advantage to try an aerial assault on Balor, which became a higher up attack when Baron Corbin got his hands on him. Ariel tried chanting her support to 3MB's leader, but Natalya was there to stretch her until she screamed, then when she finally was laid out Natalya tried to help. David Hart Smith threw a fresh ladder in, as Tyson Kidd chose to try and wrap Finn Balor inside the ladder and then lock the Dungeon Lock in to hurt him even more. Tyson Kidd refused to unlock the hold until Balor passed out, but Balor's refusal to led to the attack going further. David Hart Smith attacked Baron Corbin as the three fought, only for Natalya to suddenly pick the ladder up and climb it herself. Natalya finally grasped the belt as the crowd was in shock, the referee unsure what to do there. With no news there, Natalya finally put the belt on Tyson's arm, as the referee called for the victory. Tyson Kidd celebrated as the referee was saying some words towards the Hart Dynasty. The Intercontinental Championship was on the line, as it was brother against brother as Jimmy Uso and J. Enterprise finally got their hands on each other after their breakup at Hell in a Cell. J. Enterprise couldn't even try to rap his way to the ring, instead trying to reason with his brother and ask if they had to do this. Jimmy Uso wavered as Enterprise threw the title down, saying "Is it about that? Take it! I'd rather have my brother back, Uce!" as Jimmy Uso wavered. He looked to Naomi, who shook her head- as Jimmy Uso answered J. Enterprise by starting a superkick party, attacking Enterprise. Enterprise didn't want to go all out against his brother, still trying to reconcile instead of attack. Jimmy Uso was out to win, as he systematically clobbered his brother and tried to destroy him. Uso superkicked Enterprise, then headed to the top rope and went for a Superfly Splash- but J. Enterprise met him at the top, saying "Don't do it- we can be brothers again, just forgive me!" The crowd shouted "HUG IT OUT!" to Jimmy, as he looked at Naomi, then the crowd and finally hugged J. Enterprise to the crowd's cheers... ...indeed, now he's putting his twin brother on his- shoulders... ...no, that's not a reconciliation, Jimmy Uso just hit a Samoan Drop from the top rope onto J. Enterprise to the outside through one of the tables surrounding the ringside area. Uso rolled his broken, battered twin brother in the ring, and the pinfall was academic as Jimmy Uso became the new WWE Intercontinental Champion. After the match, Naomi and Jimmy Uso celebrated over the top of his broken brother as the crowd booed. The Tag Team Titles were on the line in a four-way elimination match, as the new champions Luke Harper and Dylan Vachon took on three tag teams to try and get the belt. The three challenging teams- 3 Man Bullet, The Four Broskis of Enzo Amore and The Big O, and The Returning Kings, headed down the ramp for the shot. Between Bray Wyatt's hard-fought title win and Finn Balor's hard-fought...loss, none of the teams had their help with them, and that led to Zack Ryder and Bianca Ferrari to tee off on the challengers. Bianca Ferrari tried focusing her feminine wiles on the Returning Kings, who were taken out of the match quickly. Zack Ryder looked at all three of the other teams, paused, then gave a big "Sorry, bros, call me when you win and we'll tear this place apart!" before making a beeline backstage. The Broskis did get help from this, though, as they were able to have a slightly easier road to bear- but they still had to deal with these three tough teams. Harper and Vachon began punishing all three teams, Vachon heading to the outside and attacking 3 Man Bullet by himself while Harper hit the ropes, sending Donny Sparkle onto Ferrari, then kept attacking Enzo and the Big O. Enzo Amore played Ricky Morton on Harper, trying to stay in the match against the power of Harper. Harper tried tagging into Vachon, which finally gave a smaller size advantage- and The Big O came in to punish Vachon for his teammate, then threw a big Rocket Launcher on Harper, as Enzo Amore grabbed the ropes for the upset to guarantee new champs. Enzo Amore celebrated and was shocked, only for Luke Gallows to attack him with a big kick. Gallows started punishing Amore as he kept up the assault, with Amore trying hard to get to The big O as Anderson Duke tried keeping him out of the match- only with Amore finally making a second hot tag. A second Rocket Launcher on Gallows, and the Four Broskis got two big matches. Bianca Ferrari celebrated, then hugged Enzo Amore as he was still in shock...and that was the line, as the Returning Kings were suddenly furious. Donny Sparkle grabbed the loaded doll and clocked Ferrari with it as he tore into Enzo Amore with vicious attacks, only for DynamicSensation to pick the bones. DynamicSensation grabbed Ferrari and signalled for the Kingslayer, but The Big O went for a big shoulder block to stop it from happening as he attacked. The distraction was enough, though- as between the beatdown he suffered before and now not having a hot tag to save him, Enzo Amore was easy pickings. Doll shot, Sonic Rainboom by Donny Sparkle, and The Returning Kings were the new WWE Tag Team Champions. DynamicSensation rushed to the ring to celebrate with his partner, as The Big O gathered his Broskis up and pointed towards them. Naomi tried for her second win of the night for her allies, as Big E Langston went one on one with Roman Reigns. Big E and the Big Dog were each man's toughest challenge to date, as the two mastodons tore into each other with everything they had. The two men tried to get ahead on the other, neither man letting up on each other. Big E Langston took the advantage, using his relentless power as he attacked Reigns. Reigns tried to fight back, but Big E was too much for him. Only Reigns trying to fight his way out of a Big Ending helped Reigns get out, as he tried to do everything he could to get the advantage on Reigns. Reigns hit four Superman Punches from each side of the ring, trying to get the advantage. Spear from each side followed as Langston teetered, then one more Superman Punch finished it as Reigns got the big victory. Reigns celebrated, then Big E Langston attacked him afterwards. A Big Ending followed as Langston stood triumphant. A series of chairs were seen surrounding the ring, as NXT had its brutal chairs match. The undefeated Russian monster, Alexander Rusev, headed to the ring, his allies Dennis Rodman and Lana heading by his side. Rodman took the mic. "CLEVELAND! Rodman Second World Tour is running wild up here tonight! I can't tell all of y'all how happy I am to be in Cleveland! Every time I come to this city, I am reminded of everything great in this world. All over America, all of you tell me, Rodman, you crazy! Rodman, Kim Jong-Un is playing you! Rodman, North Korea is nowhere near as great as America is! Well, I come right here to Cleveland and I can shove ALL THOSE CLAIMS right back in America's face!" The crowd booed. "Hey, don't go booing me, y'all can boo, but you all want Rod the Bod right now. Hell, I'm a man, I'm wrestling, I'm in shape...yeah, I'm 53 years old, but still...way I see it I'd be better than Kevin Love or LeBron James are for the Cavaliers!" The crowd booed more as Rodman continued. "Now, without further interruption, my brother and sister from another father, Vladimir Putin- Lana and Alexander Rusev!" Rusev's theme hit as Lana took the mic. "Schtrize! Schtirze! Tonight, I come here as the bearer of bad tidings. Tonight, the YES! Movement dies for good. Daniel Bryan made his final mistake when he came back- he chose to fight for the honor of his weak, American bride. Her ankle...it will heal. Not as well as the ankle of a proud Russian woman, brought to power by the ability of Vladimir Putin, but well. But Daniel Bryan- his neck was broken, it was battered, and only now is he trying to fight a man like Rusev. Daniel Bryan's pride has led to his fall, much like all of America's pride comes before a fall. Now, Daniel Bryan will be broken, he will be destroyed, and then, in the streets of Moscow, Vladimir Putin will be presented with his corpse as the whole of Russia shouts DA! DA! DA!" The crowd's boos quickly turned into cheers as the moment the fans had been waiting for for seven months had come to pass- Daniel Bryan was officially back in action, and he tore into Rusev. Bryan started a series of stiff kicks on Rusev, who merely grabbed Bryan's foot and put him in, then hit a big suplex on him. Rusev began punishing Bryan, attacking the smaller man with everything he had. Dennis Rodman and Lana threw chairs into the ring, as the attack became bigger, with Rusev swinging for the fences. Bryan tried getting out of Rusev's way, trying to duck from the blows on Bryan's head and the huge risk. Bryan grabbed one chair, and cracked Rusev in the gut with it before sending Rusev down face first onto his own chair, and then Bryan tried to even the score. Bryan tried to lock Rusev's own ankle into the chair, but Rusev reversed with a kick and started to attack Bryan's neck. Rusev set up a chair, then hit a big drop toehold on Bryan onto the chair, then kept going. Rusev went for the Accolade by the chair, but Bryan kept fighting back out of it, headbutting Rusev out and then reversing, sending Rusev onto the chair. Bryan tried for the YES Lock, but Rusev reversed out of that one. Bryan tried kicking at Rusev, but Rusev fought back. Rusev grabbed a chair and hit a vicious chairshot to Bryan, then locked in the Accolade. Daniel Bryan fought hard, refusing to give in, but finally the pain was too much. BRYAN PASS OUT. BRYAN GET KOED. RUSEV MAKE HUMBLE. After the match, Rusev stood above his beaten opponent, then grabbed a chair, wrapped Daniel Bryan's neck in it as the crowd booed. Lana screamed in Russian to Rusev- but Jack Swagger headed down the ramp and saved Bryan from this attempt to end his career with a big chairshot on Rusev, then looked towards Lana and shouted "THIS IS HOW AN AMERICAN BREAKS SOMEONE'S ANKLE!" as he locked the Patriot Act on Rusev, refusing to let go until EMTs got to Daniel Bryan. Antonio Cesaro had one of the toughest battles he could get, facing off with the now angered Great White, Sheamus. Cesaro tried to fight back against Sheamus, but Sheamus went into the match with far more to prove against Cesaro. Sheamus brought all of his attacks against the Swiss Superman, going move to move with him as they each tried to get the knockout blow on each other. Big power moves were traded, with neither man managing to get a killing blow on the other one. Cesaro grabbed a Sheamus Brogue Kick, then hit the Swing for 15 rotations as Sheamus tried to fight out of it. A Neutralizer followed, as Cesaro got the big victory. Cesaro celebrated over Sheamus, walking off as Sheamus glared at Cesaro. The vicious nature of the show continued, as we had the first ever Divas' Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match. Naomi headed to the ring, trying to make sure she and her husband could win their first singles championships in the WWE on the same night. Paige and Bayley headed down the ramp together, Bayley hugging her friend before they each had a huge match for the belt. Eva Marie then headed down the ramp, Stephanie McMahon watching at the top of the ramp as she headed down to the ring- and Naomi was right there with a big chairshot to try and attack her. This helped weaken the roster and see the match's brutality quickly- but was countered by a series of masked female security guards stormed down the ramp and swarmed the ring. The security motioned to Naomi to get in the ring, where Paige and Bayley were putting on a decent match, trying to do as little as possible to make the other one stay safe, but also be defeated. Naomi saw this, and made an attempt to get to the ring itself, climbing the ladder while Paige and Bayley kept up their own attack- but as Naomi tried to grasp the title belt, the line holding the title rose just out of her grip. Naomi, incensed, screamed "This is because I'm black, isn't it? Well, fine!", then hitting a crossbody and taking out both Bayley and Paige, then throttled both of them with big attacks. Naomi headed outside and grabbed a chair, cracking both women with the chair- only for Bayley to send Naomi to Hug City. Bayley looked at the chair, as Paige laughed with Bayley holding it. Bayley looked at the chair- but it was moot, as a kick by Eva Marie sent Bayley into the chair herself. Paige attacked Eva Marie, the two women tearing into each other and ripping into her. Paige hit a RamPaige on her, then climbed the ladder herself as Bayley grabbed a table and put Eva Marie on top of it, only for the title belt to rise even further. Paige chose to jump directly on Eva Marie- but the security guards grabbed Eva Marie and threw her off of the table, sending Paige through the table as the crowd booed. Bayley was furious at her friend's move, as Bayley swung the chair around at security guards, who held her in a Full Nelson, then cuffed her arms and legs together to the crowd's boos. Naomi was still there for the attack as she tried attacking Eva Marie with the chair herself, only for security to detain her as well and cuffed her in the same way as the crowd booed. The security then went to the table- and cuffed Paige's arms and legs as it became obvious the fix was in. Fans started throwing garbage into the ring as Eva Marie tentatively started climbing the ladder, only for it to unsteady itself. The security guards rushed into the ring and held the ladder and allowed Eva to climb further, only for Eva to try halfheartedly to grab the title belt- which was moot, as the line lowered itself directly to Eva's hands. Eva tried to unlatch the belt, only for security to help her do it. As the trouble started unlatching the belt and the cable lowered for her, the garbage stream got larger and larger, the "BULL...!" and "F*** YOU E!" chants becoming deafening- finally going larger as the belt was unlatched and Eva Marie won the Divas' Championship. The garbage went further as the security guards lifted Eva Marie on their shoulders and led her up to the ramp, Eva being unable to dodge the stream of garbage being thrown as she headed up the ramp, Stephanie McMahon there alongside a decidedly uninterested Veronica Lane as Lane took the mic. "...and TLC has had another big match, and we have our new Divas' Champion. I'm here alongside the new champion, Eva Marie...Eva, what's going through your mind?" Eva took the mic. "...this...this whole night is the greatest moment of my career. All the time I've worked ever since 'Total Divas'- it's been a long road to the top, it's been a hard road, but finally I've made it. I'm at the top of the mountain- I am now truly the Total Diva of WWE!" The crowd kept the "F*** YOU E!" chant going as Eva Marie continued. "This...this is the moment that makes it all worthwhile...ever since I came to WWE, all I've wanted is to be the Divas' Champion. Now, I've finally done what I've been waiting for my entire career!" The chants kept going as Eva Marie continued. "I've finally done it, It's finally the moment I've been waiting for. I've been dreaming of doing this since my career started...it's the greatest moment of my life! I, Eva Marie, am the WWE Divas' Champion! " Eva Marie continued, smiled, and turned to her side. "And now, to do what I've dreamed of doing all this time- I, Eva Marie, officially surrender the WWE Divas' Championship to Stephanie McMahon!" Eva Marie handed the Divas' Title to Stephanie McMahon, who raised Eva Marie's hand to the crowd's boos and "F*** YOU E!" chants. Following this problem, an attempt was made to clear out the garbage, chairs, and ladder, as we had the big main event. A series of tables were all around the ring, as Goldust headed into the ring for either his shot at immortality or his final failure. The entrance surrounded him, as Goldust made his way through the ring as he waited for his opponent. This brought out Brock Lesnar, who had Paul Heyman follow him into the ring carrying the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, as he walked through. Heyman motioned to go after a table, but Lesnar motioned for Heyman to head back to the ring , saying "I can handle this myself". Lesnar turned, and Goldust suckerpunched him when he did, peppering the Beast with rights and lefts as he tried taking the element of surprise. This worked well. For about ten seconds. Then, Lesnar had his own plan, and began getting his own attack in on Goldust. Lesnar introduced Goldust to Suplex City, punishing the veteran with everything he had into him. Lesnar motioned to the ropes, but decided to keep the attack going, adding more suplexes to punish Goldust. Goldust blocked Lesnar, trying to make the match less of a technical showcase, less of a mixed martial arts match, and more of just that classic old Rhodes family-style fight. Goldust took an advantage, waiting for Lesnar to play dead, but not wanting to head outside the ring and put himself where all the tables are. This, indeed, was to his own benefit, as Lesnar couldn't be taken out that easily. Goldust went back into the city, and then Lesnar headed outside the ring as he looked towards a table. Lesnar tried to go for one, but Goldust hit a suicide dive as the crowd cheered. JBL added a "He can't leave anything on the table here- there's no tomorrow for Goldust!", as Goldust smashed Lesnar's head into the table, trying to break it with Lesnar's skull and failing miserably. Lesnar tried to grab Goldust, but Goldust tried for the defense, keeping away from Lesnar, knowing a big grapple could end it right there. A spare chair that was still there was all Goldust needed, as he cracked Lesnar with the chair a few times, trying to teeter the giant. This just gave Lesnar a big chance to punish him, punching the chair into Lesnar as he went down. Lesnar tried grabbing Goldust, but he deadweighted and reversed to a rollup on Lesnar, then grabbed a ladder and dropped it onto Lesnar before legdropping it through Lesnar. Goldust got some distance, sending a table into the ring and setting it up in one turnbuckle as he waited as Lesnar headed into the ring. The turnbuckle added a bit of distance, as now one false shot could end the match. Lesnar tried sending Goldust to Suplex City again, but Goldust was not having it, keeping it a slugfest and making it as easy as possible, separating the ring and keeping distance from the rigged turnbuckle. Lesnar took an advantage and went for a powerbomb, trying to run him into the table, but Goldust apparently learned from Kidman and kept away from the kill. Goldust tried throwing Lesnar through, but he reversed and attacked. Goldust went for a Final Cut, but Lesnar grabbed Goldust and hit the F-5. A second F-5 followed, as Lesnar went for the kill. Lesnar placed Goldust right in front of the table and headed in for a brutal spear to put him out of his misery. Brock Lesnar went to the other turnbuckle and ran for it... ...and with his last ounce of strength, Goldust moved out of the way. Brock Lesnar didn't.
The crowd went silent- only for the crowd to EXPLODE as the bell rang. "I don't care about being impartial right now, it's been 20 years- it's finally your moment, Goldust!" "In nine days time, it'll be a 25 year journey for Goldust, Dustin Rhodes, whatever you want to call it- and it's just ended with two steps in the other direction- Goldust is finally the champion of the world!" As his theme played once more, tears started to make his facepaint run as Charles Robinson handed Goldust the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Goldust grasped the title to his face, then held it up as the locker room emptied. A string of WWE and NXT faces headed down, with Dusty Rhodes heading in and hugging his son. An "I did it, Dad" was heard as Goldust put the title up, with Erick Rowan and Colin Cassady putting Goldust on their shoulders as the crowd cheered. Ted DiBiase and Cody Rhodes headed down, as Cody put what was in his hands out, handing it to one of the happy queue, then hugged his brother as the crowd erupted. Dusty and Cody raised Goldust's hands to the crowd as they cheered, the wrestlers celebrating. JBL and Chris Jericho left the announce table and shook Goldust's hands as the celebration continued, the entire roster walking off as Goldust celebrated with his family. Dusty and Cody helped walk as Goldust kept the title in his hands. Dusty Rhodes stood at the top of the ramp with the WWE roster celebrating as the two brothers high-fived the fans at the side of the ramp... ...then Cody Rhodes jumped from that ramp and hit a Disaster Kick on Goldust! Cody Rhodes throttled Goldust with a chair, then grabbed Goldust and put him through one of the nearby tables. Goldust tried fighting back, but Cody Rhodes kept up the assault... ...and here is where people realized the thing that was in his hand was his briefcase... ...and the person he handed it to was NXT performer Drake Wuertz. "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, CODY RHODES IS CASHING IN HIS MONEY IN THE BANK CONTRACT!" Cody Rhodes headed into the ring as Dusty tried getting down there- but there was nothing much he could do. CrossRhodes got hit, Wuertz counted...and by the time Dusty Rhodes made it down the ramp, he had TWO sons who went on to become WWE World Heavyweight Champion- and they did it the same night. The show ended as Ted DiBiase, Charlotte, Randy Orton, and Triple H headed down the ramp and hugged new WWE World Heavyweight Champion Cody Rhodes, as Dusty Rhodes and Goldust shouted 'Why?' at him. ----------

Smackdown, January 2, 2015: It's a new year and a new era of Smackdown, as a giant celebration ceremony was set up for the new WWE World Heavyweight Champion in Cody Rhodes. Rhodes came to the ring with his sidekick Ted DiBiase, asking people how the holiday season went. For Cody Rhodes, he didn't have to spend the holidays trying to pay lip service to his family members- to him, he got the greatest gift possible from his family at TLC. His brother, Goldust, gave him the greatest possible gift he could- Brock Lesnar, the Beast, the Demigod, the man who ended the Undertaker's Wrestlemania streak- went into a Tables Match. Goldust had nothing left on a Last Stand but his veteran savvy and intelligence- and then, in the fluke of a lifetime, finishing the lucky streak of a lifetime, Brock Lesnar went through a table and Goldust didn't. Goldust actually defeated Brock Lesnar through the biggest fluke in pro wrestling history, taking a beating like only Brock Lesnar could give him and somehow coming away with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship- and in doing so, manufactured the single greatest opportunity Cody Rhodes would ever have to cash in Money in the Bank and FINALLY become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Cody Rhodes wanted to come out and officially thank his brother. For years, they had problems- whether it was their father, Dusty Rhodes, leaving Goldust's mother for Cody's and thus guaranteeing Dusty loved him more than he did Goldust, while also guaranteeing that Cody could be better looking than Goldust, whether it was the age difference between them putting Cody right into the prime of his career while Goldust is washed up, the fact Goldust got raised with Dusty never there while Cody was the apple of Dusty's eye- he never knew if Goldust considered him his brother. Yet at TLC, when Goldust beat Brock Lesnar in that fluke and gave Cody that perfect chance, Cody knew- Goldust really did care about him. He couldn't have become the WWE World Heavyweight Champion without his brother's blind luck and insanity to let Brock Lesnar beat him down. This title is for Goldust, even if he'll never get to enjoy being a champion for more than a few minutes himself... ...and that brought Goldust out to the ring. Goldust clapped, and said if that's how Cody Rhodes felt? He has to come out and say the same thing. See, Cody Rhodes took Goldust's finest moment. He took the moment he worked 20 years in the WWE to have, 25 years as a professional wrestler to have, and stole it all for himself...but for that, Goldust has to thank Cody for the gift that Cody gave him at TLC. Goldust actually WON his match. Whatever time studying under Triple H he had, Cody wasn't some idiot who'd be dumb enough to actually cash in during a Brock Lesnar match to get a triple-threat match- Goldust won the match, and for a few brief, beautiful minutes, Goldust was the WWE World Heavyweight Champion. And when Cody Rhodes cashed in like that at TLC...well, Goldust can STILL call himself a former WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Goldust had always said exactly that- he just wanted to be a WWE World Heavyweight Champion before the 20th year of his career started- and even if Goldust only held that belt for a few minutes, the record books will always say that Goldust is STILL a former World Champion. He can happily continue to be a WWE Superstar knowing that monkey is off his back forever- and now, Goldust has a rematch clause for the title. Goldust knows as well as any veteran does- that first World Championship win is the hardest. He doesn't have to go through a Demigod to get the title back- all he has to do is give his baby brother the beating he should have when he was a kid- and at the Royal Rumble, he's going to do that... ...and that brought Roman Reigns out to the ring. Reigns wanted to congratulate Goldust for his victory at TLC- and he wished he could say the same about the current champion. Reigns talked about how Goldust does have his rematch clause, and it's nice- but if you didn't notice last week, Roman Reigns is your King of the Ring. Reigns went through three men last week and took a huge feather in his cap. He's proven he can run with the big dogs in the yard, and now the biggest dog of them all wants the WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Goldust is great, he thinks what he did all this time was a great honor for one of the best in this business- that's why it's going to hurt the most when Reigns takes the title shot at the Royal Rumble from him. Believe THAT. The Cruiserweight Title was on the line, as El Torito defended his belt against Hart Dynasty member Owen Kidd. As the match began, Charlotte headed down to the ring and said this was a travesty that this title defense is allowed to occur, much like it was when Charlotte was forced to fight a man in the first place for her title. Charlotte is STILL the Cruiserweight Champion, because it was unjust and unfair for her to get in the ring and fight a man- even a man like El Torito. Stephanie McMahon promised as soon as she handles her business on NXT, she will be re-awarded the Cruiserweight Title like she deserves, The fact Charlotte doesn't have her title is a crime against the world, and proof El Torito is not REALLY the Cruiserweight Ch-and here comes JL McKay, Emma, and Sheila from NXT to ambush Charlotte as she kept talking as the crowd cheered. Three-on-one beatdown follows outside the ring as Owen Kidd tried fighting back inside the ring on El Torito, but failed- a Bullacanrana follows, and El Torito defended the belt. The members of 3 Man Bullet were out there waiting for a match following their losses at TLC, making a challenge to any team that wanted some of them. This brought Scott Dawson to the ring as Finn Balor mocked his chances, saying his partner takes more pints than anyone in Ireland. Dawson said he could kick his ass with his mechanic- as Dash Wilder showed up dressed like that. Wilder and Dawson headed to the ring and brought an attack to the 3 Man Bullet members, punishing the both of them as they kept going. However, Luke Gallows and Anderson Duke's size, speed...and numbers, were too much, as Finn Balor, Baron Corbin, and Ariel helped beat the two down. Kendall Skye tried helping take Ariel out of the picture, but that was too little, too late as the four-on-two attack happened. Twelfth Step followed and Dawson was taken out- only for the referee to look at the four-on-two attack and reverse the decision, giving Dawson and Wilder the big victory. The two celebrated as Finn Balor looked at the referee, then Too Sweeted Baron Corbin. Corbin turned to the referee, then hit the End of Days on him, leaving him laying. Colin Cassady was in the ring posing for the crowd, only for Zack Ryder and his Broskis to come down the ramp. Ryder said he didn't want to attack- he thought Cassady was awesome, a true broski. His boys said you were cool, you're the hottest new star in the WWE- it's the right time for Cassady to become a true Broski, run with him and his boys. Cassady thought about this offer- then answered Ryder in the form of a big chokeslam. Cassady attacked Ryder, and easily pinned him as the crowd cheered. Another big celebration was set up in the middle of the ring, as Eva Marie and Stephanie McMahon came down the ramp, the Divas' Championship on Stephanie's shoulder. Some more of the security guards from TLC marched out in front of the WWE and NXT Divas, many looking disgusted by being forced to be on the ramp watching this ceremony. Indeed, Paige, Bayley, Sasha Banks, JL McKay, Sheila, and Emma all tried to turn their backs to the celebration in protest, but security grabbed them in full nelsons and forcibly turned them to watch as they tried- emphasis: TRIED- to fight out of it. Stephanie talked about how when she was a child, her best friend, Andre the Giant, was one of the greatest wrestlers throughout all time, but for some reason he could never get over the hump of people like Hulk Hogan to win the WWE Championship. Finally, the day he managed to do so, Stephanie was excited- Andre was finally the champion. And then, Stephanie saw her best friend, Andre the Giant, surrender the title to Ted DiBiase, and she was unsure why. She had to ask him- he worked for that title for his whole life- why would he surrender it to the Million Dollar Man? She still remembers what Andre told her- "you'll understand when you get older". She never really understood that statement, until she saw the inner goodness of her personal assistant, Eva Marie. Eva Marie is a great celebrity, one of the faces of the E! Television Network, the star of Total Divas. By any means you use, she deserves to call herself a champion as much as Andre the Giant deserved to call himself a champion- but more than that, she was a true friend and a woman who understood the facts. She understood no matter how good a champion SHE would be, Stephanie McMahon is the one who pays the bills. Stephanie McMahon is a true feminist hero, a woman who proves yes, you CAN have it all in this world. Eva Marie deserves to be a champion- but Stephanie McMahon just deserves it MORE. And because Eva Marie is not just a great champion, but a great WOMAN, she proved she was as great a friend as Andre the Giant was to her, and the moment she fought through Bayley, Naomi, and Paige- three of the greatest women's wrestlers ever, she made her way to the top by her own will to win and drive to succeed alone- and she won the Divas' Championship in the first ever Divas' TLC match. And even after a success like this, the one thing she thought of when she did it was to surrender the title to the most rightful Divas' Champion- Stephanie McMahon. Eva Marie fought against three self-loathing misogynists like Paige, Naomi, and Bayley, just to set right the greatest injustice in the history of the world and give the title back to Stephanie McMahon. Now, at long last, the world is right again. Stephanie McMahon smiled and said "That is why, I'm here to announce- once things are finally right again, I must KEEP them right." With that in mind, Stephanie said that she's making sure this wrong never happens again. Little girls need role models to show them that it's possible to have it all in life- to be a success in the ring, in the boardroom, and as a wife and mother. Adult women need proof that, if their lives didn't suck so badly they have to have a terrible life, they can at least take solace there IS a woman out there who is able to have it all, even if they themselves aren't good enough to do it themselves- so when they go home to their worthless existence and even more worthless future, at least they can know Stephanie McMahon did it and smile that even if they're not good enough to have it all, at least someone could. Stephanie McMahon is a role model, and it's necessary for Stephanie McMahon to be that city on the hill for the rest of womankind everywhere. That is why, to give women a true, proper role model, Stephanie McMahon announces that effective immediately, the WWE Divas' division is hereby dissolved. The women's division has already become as perfect as it has ever been or ever WILL be, and it is important to make sure that there will never be another chance of a worthless woman like Paige getting the Divas' Championship and making the division fail for all the women in the world ever again. Stephanie McMahon will officially be Forever Champion of the WWE Divas' Title, the way she has always deserved to be. This was enough to strike, as Paige and Sasha Banks broke free of their aggressors and rushed the ring to attack Stephanie McMahon. Stephanie called for security, but the Divas were protesting and starting to attack the security guards on the ramp. Stephanie shouted "It's about titles? Fine...prove yourselves!"...as she called out the new Tag Team Champion Returning Kings to attack Paige and Sasha. The two women tried to fight the champions, who kept up the attack. Loaded doll shot by Donny Sparkle followed on both Divas, as Stephanie disqualified Sparkle for this...oh, wait, no, she punished Sasha and Paige for allowing the loaded doll to be brought into the match instead. The protest kept going as Stephanie pointed to the beaten women and nodded to the champs. The Returning Kings grabbed Paige and Sasha Banks and started carrying them backstage- as Erick Rowan and Ricky Slate attacked the two of them, allowing the two women to run for cover. The main event of Smackdown had a battle of two of the most legendary stables in WWE, as Roman Reigns and Seth Rollins of The Shield took on Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase of Legacy. Goldust was on color commentary, trading pleasantries with Josh Mathews and JBL, talking about how what Cody Rhodes did to him was still a bad thing- but at least Goldust still has chances, and Cody will get what he has coming to him. JBL asked him about Roman Reigns's demands, as Goldust said that he thinks the world of Reigns- if he's King of the Ring, that says how talented he is. He has no problem with Roman Reigns- but if he thinks Goldust will be a small stepping stone to the top, Goldust is also going to show him he won't just step aside and let Reigns take out Cody. Roman Reigns is a great talent, and he's sure one day his time's going to come- but at this moment, Cody Rhodes is his little brother, he's the man who destroyed his greatest moment, and Cody Rhodes is HIS person to take down. In the ring, Rollins played Ricky Morton to the attack of Legacy, with the champion and his sidekick decimating Rollins with great teamwork and impressive attacks. Rollins made the hot tag to Reigns, who destroyed both. Superman Punch to DiBiase, Spear to Cody, then when DiBiase tried getting up, a second Spear to DiBiase. Cody tried going for the Disaster Kick, but Goldust hung Cody up on the ropes before he could hit it, allowing Roman Reigns to pin Ted DiBiase for the victory. After the match, Reigns celebrated- only for Cody Rhodes to attack Seth Rollins after the match. Goldust and Reigns tried pulling the champ off Rollins, but to no avail as the show ended.
