i will do Stinger's show tonight and Brad's tomorrow
interesting matches for the tournament I think I can already tell who's going to win their matches but here were my predictions before looking at the results Shawn Michaels Sheamus this one is kind of tough I actually don't have a prediction and Cm punk
First match yup just as I called it Even though Cody is younger and quicker Shawn has the most experience and that's usually what matters most in these matches.
New age Outlaws Vs Usos again pretty prdictable but good match either way so new age outlaws are leading...for now
Sheamus Vs Aj Styles So the bad blood continues between these two I was actually not expecting this so I guess they are both out of the tournament and there's going to be a triple threat match next week or there's going to be rematch I don't know
Jericho vs Daniel Bryan This one could of gone either way since both of these guys are veterens and I would be fine with either one winning but Jerico winning is fine
WGTT vs Beer money again could either go anyway was expecting Beer money winning by cheating again or something like that but WGTT winning is cool also
wierd segment between Beth and Ric was Beth trying to get under his skin or did she think that she was part of the three i'm going to go with the first one
main event again pretty predictable with Punk winning at first I was wondering why Jericho attacked Punk but then I remembered the segment from last week between these two
ovarall Not much to say about the show this week I'm really excited about the PPV on the 28th now back to this show like i said it was a pretty predictable as i guessed the first and last match before looking at the results but the middle ones were tough to decide 8/10

I'll review stinger's show now and get to bradbingham's later.
MATCH #1: 6.5/10.
MATCH #2: 6.5/10.
MATCH #3: 7/10. I will not be one bit surprised to see these two face off at the PPV.
MATCH #4: 7/10.
MATCH #5: 6/10.
MAIN EVENT: 8/10. Kinda hard to tell if Punk is the face in this or not, but this is proving to be a volatile feud to say the very least.
OVERALL: 7/10. Not much to say as the focus is primarily on the two tourneys, but those are progressing quite nicely.

okay i'm going to do a short review for Brad's show
Good tag team match to open thye show dudley's being the heels here and having a dq finish okay that works
Lita vs Ivory a little too long for a woman's match in my opinion but since it's between Ivory and lita it's okay though and it's also okay because you're trying to make woman matches matter now
Ted vs Kane and another DQ finish I know you want to show us who the heels are but the third week in the show you shouldn't have to do that
another good tag team match justin turning heel it's going to be odd for him to be solo and be a heel instead of in a heel group
main event not much to say good ending and the brawl in the end is good
ovarall this is hard to judge here so i'll give it a 8/10

for the DQ finish in the Ted/Kane match I didn't want Kane to win the title and I didn't want DiBiase to beat Kane and I wanted to continue the Raven chasing the TV title feud so I think the DQ ending worked out pretty good.
I'm satisfied with the rating I got though.

BRADBINGHAM'S SHOW:
MATCH #1: 6.5/10.
MATCH #2: 6/10. I'm liking the fact that you have two diva feuds going at the same time and that they're both good.
MATCH #3: 6/10.
MATCH #4: 5/10.
MAIN EVENT: 7.5/10. Good way to keep the Undertaker/Unholy Army feud going AND hype the main event at the PPV.
OVERALL: 6.5/10.

I was wondering, since there are only 2 promotions now, if after our PPVs we might be allowed to expand our rosters a bit to keep things fresh. Just a suggestion.

Monday Mayhem 8/22/11 U.S. Bank Arena Cincinnati, Oh
Dusty: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Monday Mayhem. We have a great show in store for you tonight. In the main event, CM Punk and Chris Jericho compete for a chance at the ASW Championship at All-Star Showdown. Jesse: That’s right. What I’m anxious to see is how CM Punk’s leg will hold up after the beating it took last week at the hands of Chris Jericho. Dusty: In addition to that, we have our final two round robin matches in our tournament to determine the two teams that will go head to head for the ASW Tag Team Championship at All-Star Showdown. Jesse: And we get the privilege of seeing Beth Phoenix take down three women in a handicap match. Dusty: You may be getting ahead of yourself there, Jesse the Body. Beth Phoenix is tough, but I’m sure the match will be a real slobberknocker. CM Punk’s music hits and he makes his way down to the ring, limping slightly. Punk: I’m sure all of you saw that coward Chris Jericho last week attack me with a steel chair after my amazing victory over Kofi Kingston. Furthermore, I’m sure you’re all wondering if my leg is going to keep me out of action. Well, let me dispel any rumors right now. My leg is extremely sore and I wouldn’t be surprised if there are torn ligaments or bone fragments in my knee, but even if I had to wheel myself out here in a wheelchair, nothing will keep me from the main event at All-Star Showdown. So, Chris Jericho, don’t for one minute think that you’ll get a free ride to the title match like Shawn Michaels did. I’ll be in that ring tonight, and I’ll be in that same ring on Sunday to beat Shawn Michaels for the ASW World Heavyweight Championship. Jericho’s music hits and he walks to the ring. Jericho: Just so you know, I didn’t need to weaken your knee in order to beat you. I am the superior wrestler and could have beaten you and full strength. But I’ve been in this business long enough to know that flukes do happen, and to prevent that, I took out an insurance policy. You see, I just can’t risk you going to All-Star Showdown and allowing that worm Shawn Michaels to walk away with the belt, which will happen if you, by some miracle, were to advance to the finals. Punk: Rationalize it however you want, Chris, but we can all see that it is an act of cowardice. You know you can’t be me at 100%, so you pull this little stunt to try and weaken me before the match. It’s obvious what you’re doing, no matter what B.S. you come out here and spew. But rest assured, injury or no injury, I’ll be in that ring tonight. Jericho: Glad to hear it. I’ll be waiting.
***Commercial Break***
Dusty: Welcome back to Monday Mayhem. We’re gonna start off with a match from our tag team round robin. Why don’t you run down the standings, Jesse the Body? Jesse: Coming into tonight, the New Age Outlaws lead the standings with 3 points, the Usos and the World’s Greatest Tag Team each have 2 points, and Beer Money has 1 point. So it’s still anybody’s game. Match #1: Beer Money vs. The Usos Jimmy and Roode start things out. The match is back and forth with neither team able to become dominant. Beer Money uses underhanded tactics throughout the match and eventually gain an advantage. The Usos fight back with several chops and headbutts. Jimmy gets a two-count on Storm, but Roode interrupts, drawing Jey into the ring. As the ref tries to clear Jey and Roode out of the ring, Storm takes off his cowboy boot and hits Jimmy in the head with it. As the ref turns around, Storm gets the three count. Winner: Beer Money Jesse: Well, that means the Usos will not be going to All-Star Showdown to compete for the ASW Tag Team Title. Beer Money still has a shot to compete for that title. We’ll see what happens later tonight. Match #2: Beth Phoenix vs. Miss Tessmacher, Gail Kim, and Velvet Sky The match starts off with Tessmacher, Gail, and Velvet overwhelming Beth with kicks and punches. Beth is able to fight them off enough to throw Gail out of the ring, making it two on one. She grabs Velvet and Tessmacher by the hair and knocks their heads together, knocking Velvet to the floor. She then performs the Glam Slam on Miss Tessmacher. Gail comes off the top rope and dropkicks Beth from behind. Beth quickly recovers and hits a powerbomb on Gail. Velvet is back up and attempts to get some offense in on Beth, but Beth counters, knocks her to the floor, and applies a Boston Crab. Velvet taps out instantly. Winner: Beth Phoenix The bell rings, but Beth is not finished dishing out punishment. She pulls Miss Tessmacher up by the hair and continues to mock her and pummel her with punches. She sets Tessmacher up for the Glam Slam but is stopped when Mickie James runs to the ring and kicks Beth in the gut. Mickie then hits Beth with the jumping DDT. Mickie stands over Beth and mimics a belt around her waist as the crowd cheers her on.
*** Commercial Break ***
The show comes back with AJ Styles knocking on Ric Flair’s door. Flair: Come in. Hey, AJ, what can I do for you? Styles: I’ll tell you what you can do for me. I know you’ve seen what Sheamus has been doing to me over the past three weeks. Flair: I have. So what are you going to do about it? Styles: I want a match with that overgrown leprechaun at All-Star Showdown. Will you make that happen, Ric? Flair: Well, AJ, as it turns out, Sheamus has already been here today, and he requested a match with you at All-Star Showdown as well. Styles: So it’s on then? I have my match? Flair: You’ve got your match. But not just any match. Your match with Sheamus at All-Star Showdown will be a no disqualification match. Styles: I’ve got no problem with that. In fact, I prefer it that way. That way, there’s nowhere for him to run. The camera goes backstage to Sunny backstage with Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty. Sunny: Well ladies and gentlemen, as you can see, I’m standing here with Shawn Michaels and Marty Jannetty. Guys, I’ve been told you have an announcement to make? Michaels: That’s right, Sunny. You see, ever since the double disqualification that led to me getting a bye into the tournament finals, all I’ve heard is whining from CM Punk and Chris Jericho about me getting a week off. So, tonight, even though I don’t have to, I’ve decided to compete in a match tonight with Marty. Sunny: You mean the two of you are going to face off against each other tonight on Mayhem? Jannetty: No, no, you’re misunderstanding. You see, back in the 80’s, Shawn and I were one of the most exciting and innovative tag teams in the world – The Rockers. Tonight, we’ve decided to have a Rocker reunion and give the fans here in Cincinnati, Ohio a treat. Sunny: Wow, that is big news! Michaels: No, it’s huge news. And it’s coming up next, so stay tuned. Sunny: Stay tuned, indeed. Monday Mayhem will be right back with a Rocker reunion.
***Commercial Break***
Match #3: The Rockers vs. Cody Rhodes and Goldust Marty starts things out with Cody. The match goes back and forth but eventually the Rockers’ ability to work as a well-oiled team. The Rockers seem not to have lost a step despite not being in the ring together for several years, and they perform several of their patented moves. Cody is clearly getting frustrated with being unable to gain an advantage. While Goldust is in the ring, Cody begins to criticize him from the outside. This distracts Goldust long enough for Michaels to hit Sweet Chin Music on him. Jannetty prevents Cody from breaking up the three count. Winner: The Rockers After the match, Cody becomes irate at Goldust for, in his opinion, costing them the match. The two exchange angry words before Cody pushes Goldust into the ropes, causing Goldust to tumble out of the ring. Cody yells at Goldust for a few more seconds before angrily walking back up the ramp to the backstage area. Jesse: Well, Rhodes, have anything to say about the hissy fit your son Cody just threw in the ring? Dusty: He was obviously frustrated at his brother because he felt Dustin cost them the match. I’m not so sure about that. I love my sons, but they just did not have the cohesiveness or the experience of the Rockers today. Jesse: Well it looks like you may find yourself mediating a sibling rivalry before too long, Rhodes. Dusty: Wouldn’t be the first time. Jesse: Well, Rhodes, let’s shift gears from your dysfunctional family because I’ve just got word that our General Manager is on his way to the ring with an important announcement. “WOO!” Flair’s music hits. He comes to the ring carrying a belt with a red leather strap and an American flag on the plate. Flair: This is the ASW United States Championship. Right now, this title, like all others in ASW, is vacant. But that will change at All-Star Showdown. There will be a Four Way Match at All-Star Showdown to determine the first ever United States Champion. Two of the men in that match have been decided – the two men I erroneously forced into a qualifying match for the World Championship tournament because of my oversight – Daniel Bryan and Dolph Ziggler. The third participant will be the loser of the match tonight between CM Punk and Chris Jericho. The fourth will be the winner of a match that is coming up next.
*** Commercial Break ***
Match #4: Kofi Kingston vs. John Morrison The match is very even and full of innovative offense and aerial attacks. The upper hand swings back and forth for over 10 minutes. Eventually, Morrison is able to put together a series of moves to gain the upper hand. Morrison goes to the top for Starship Pain but Kofi manages to out his knees up to counter. Morrison is in obvious pain and both men are slow to get to their feet. Kofi is up a second before Morrison and connects with a kick to the head. Kofi hits Trouble in Paradise and gets the three count. Winner: Kofi Kingston Dusty: What a match that was, Jesse the Body. It really could have gone either way. Jesse: It was a competitive match, indeed, Rhodes, but it will be Kofi Kingston that advances to the Four Way U.S. Championship match at All-Star Showdown.
*** Commercial Break***
The camera is backstage as Cody Rhodes is putting his ring gear in a bag when Goldust enters, but in street clothes and without facepaint. Goldust: What the hell was that? Cody: I’m sick and tired of you bringing dishonor to the Rhodes name. Do you know you have yet to win a match in ASW? It is embarrassing enough to watch that fat, ignorant has-been we call a father sit out there and blubber on and on every week. But I can’t handle you embarrassing me even more by being a perennial loser. Goldust: I embarrass you? Cody: Yes, because I’m a winner and you’re a loser. Goldust: Is that so? Well, why don’t we settle this at All-Star Showdown, and we’ll see who the real loser is. Cody: I accept…bro. Jesse: Well, Rhodes, what do you have to say about that? Dusty: Well, Jesse the Body, I think that the ring is probably the best place for Cody and Dustin to work through their problems. But now it’s time for the final tag team match in our round robin tournament. Jesse: Right now, the Usos have been mathematically eliminated. The New Age Outlaws have 3 points, as does Beer Money. The World’s Greatest Tag Team has 2 points, so they could take the lead with a win, but will be eliminated with a loss. Match #5: New Age Outlaws vs. World’s Greatest Tag Team Billy Gunn and Shelton Benjamin start the match. It is a contrast of styles as the WGTT launches an offense of technical wrestling moves while the Outlaws prepare to brawl. The match continues and WGTT has gained an upper hand, but has also used several questionable tactics. While the ref’s back is turned listening to protests from Billy Gunn, who is trying to enter the ring, Benjamin holds Road Dogg from the apron while Haas hammers away at his midsection. Haas comes off the ropes and attempts a dropkick but Road Dogg ducks and Haas dropkicks Shelton to the outside. Haas is stunned and Road Dogg uses the pumphandle powerslam to get the pin. Winner: New Age Outlaws Dusty: What a slobberknocker! That means the Outlaws and Beer Money will compete for the Tag Team titles at All-Star Showdown. Jesse: And if the match those two teams had two weeks ago is any indication, I think we’re in for another “slobberknocker” this Sunday. Dusty: Speaking of slobberknockers, Jesse the Body, our main event is up next, and the two men involved sure seem to have a lot of bad blood. That match is up right after we come back from commercial.
*** Commercial Break ***
Main Event: ASW Championship Tournament Semifinal – Chris Jericho vs. CM Punk CM Punk is clearly injured when he comes to the ring favoring the leg Jericho injured last week, but looks determined to win. Despite his injury, Punk is able to get in lots of good offense in. However, the knee is clearly a liability and Jericho exploits it, kicking the knee at every opportunity. Punk battles through the injury, obviously in pain. The match continues on, and Punk attempts the GTS on Jericho. As he hoists Jericho onto his shoulders, his knee buckles under Jericho’s wait. Jericho capitalizes and applies the Walls of Jericho. Punk is unable to stand the pain and taps out. Winner: Chris Jericho Jericho is ecstatic and celebrates in the ring. He stands over CM Punk and taunts him, pointing at his injured leg and hurling insults. Unbeknownst to Jericho, HBK has entered the ring. As Jericho turns around, he is met with Sweet Chin Music. Michaels grabs the mic. Michaels: Congratulations, Chris. Your plan to take out Punk worked, but you overlooked one crucial aspect. Your reward is that you have to step inside the ring with me. Shawn drops the mic and the screen goes black.

I'm not going to go into great detail for this show just mostly bullet points. I'll go into better detail for the Pay Per View which I'll probably do on Saturday or Sunday.
Segment #1: Vince Russo announces that tonight will be pick your poison for Sting, DDP and Randy Orton. Sting picks Orton's opponent, Orton picks DDP's opponent and DDP picks Sting's opponent.
Match 1: Six Diva Tag Lita, Stacy & Candice VS Molly, Ivory and Awesome Kong
Results: Kong pins Candice after the Awesome Bomb at 5:43.
Aftermath: Lita attacks Kong, knocking her out of the ring. Kong & Lita brawl to the back. Molly and Ivory attack Candice but Stacy intervenes and hits a twist of fate on Molly, which she learned from Lita. Ivory then leaves the ring as Stacy checks on Candice.
Segment #2: Goldberg confronts Russo about Buff Bagwell attacking him two weeks ago and how Russo gave both Bagwell and Goldberg the night off last week. Russo makes Goldberg VS Buff Bagwell for Blaze of Glory with the stipulation that the winner will face the BWF Champion at the Deadly Sin Pay Per View, which is Pay Per View #2.
Match 2: Pick Your Poison Sting VS Sid Vicious
(Before the match Sid is interviewed and it's discovered that Vader is not in the arena tonight)
Results: Sting pins Sid after a Scorpion Death Drop at 15:22.
Aftermath: As Sting celebrates The Dudley Boys rush the ring and attack a weaken Sid by putting him through a Table. Russo appears on the tron and informs The Dudleys that they have been added to the TLC Tag Title match at Blaze of Glory.
Match 3: Motor City Machine Guns VS Rock 'N' Roll Express
Results: 20 minute limit draw. Lots of high spots in the match, several near falls, the fans were split between both teams.
Segment #3: Kurt Angle is interviewed about his upcoming match with Tank Abbott. During the interview Tank Abbott shows up and attacks Kurt and the two of them brawl until security breaks it up.
Match 4: TV Title #1 contender Raven VS Kane
Results: Raven pins Kane after interference from The Great Muta at 7:01. About 6 minutes in the match there was a ref bump then Muta came out and spit the green mist in Kane's face and Raven hit the Evenflow DDT for the 3 count.
Match 5: Pick your Poison DDP VS Masahiro Chono
Results: DDP pins Chono after hitting a Diamond Cutter out of nowhere at 13:49. It was a hard fought battle, Chono dominated most of the match. Then DDP managed to hit a Diamond Cutter that put Chono away for the 3 count.
Aftermath: Muta ran in to help Chono attack DDP but The Undertaker and Kane (who now has the mist wiped off his face) come out to run off Muta and Chono. Mitchell gets on the microphone and challenges The Brothers of Destruction to a match against Muta and Chono and if The Unholy Army wins The BOD has to join the Unholy Army. Taker and Kane agree.
Main Event: Pick Your Poison Randy Orton VS Rey Mysterio
Results: Randy Orton after an RKO at 10:39.
Aftermath: After the victory Orton was getting ready to do the punt kick to Mysterio but Sting and DDP rush out to attack Orton. The rest of the Unholy Army comes out to help Orton. The BOD then comes out. Justin Gabriel came out because Rey was in the ring unconscious to deliver the deadly 450 splash. Soon the whole locker room came out and everybody started to brawl as Rage went off the air.
Dark Match Main Event: Vince Russo came out and ordered a battle royal to take place since the entire roster was already in the ring (minus the women and Vader due to him not being the building)
Results: Kurt Angle won the Battle Royal last eliminating Goldberg.
(I would go into more detail about the Battle Royal but since it was just a dark match I won’t bother)
