- The show opens with a recap of last week’s closing angle when Batista came out to make the save and joined the HHH/Shane team against Legacy for the match at Backlash, where the winning guy gets the belt. What a fucking mouthful.
Opening Segment: Batista returns to little kids cheering.
- He calls out Randy after a recap of how he was put out of action. Apparently his other injuries, which were mentioned at the time were retconend out. The WWE Time Machine strikes again. His words come out as hollow.
- Shane comes out to answer the challenge? No. He claims that he should get Randy since he, his dad, and sis were attacked. He is so f’ing scripted. He should also use Just For Men, Touch of Grey blend.
- HHH comes out and its a shit-eating contest as HHH claims everything is related to him somehow.
- Vickie comes out now. He sets up a handicap match with HHH/Batista/Shane vs Cody Rhodes/Ted DBiase (Jr). Why is the heel GM helping the faces?
Rey Mysterio (RAW) vs Evan Borne (ECW)
- If Even didn’t get an intro I would have thought this was a Superstars squash.
- Rey wins with a 619, and a Swan Dive.
***1. MVP (SD) drafted to RAW

For the BBC, Leslie Goff reported:
To millions of US wrestling fans, Kofi Kingston is the first Jamaican wrestler in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE). But his real identity is very different – because to his family and friends, he is Kofi Sarkodie-Mensah from Ghana.
Most wrestling fans have never heard of the West African country, so the wrestling body decided fight fans would be more likely to embrace a wrestler from the land of Bob Marley and reggae music.
And so desperate is Sarkodie-Mensah to become wrestling’s next superstar, he is willing to deny who he is.
“I was actually born in Jamaica – to be honest with a name like Kofi a lot of people assume I was born in Ghana,” he says with a bad Jamaican accent, but doing his best to stay in character.
But though he denies it, his mother Elizabeth – the head of a Ghanaian-American organisation in the US – confirms that he was indeed born in Ghana, and not in Jamaica. The family only moved to the US in 1982.
“I told him: ‘Kofi, your cousins watch you on TV in Ghana and want to know why you don’t say you’re from Ghana,’” she says.
“He said: ‘Tell them it is business.’”

On November 13, 2005, Eddie Guerrero was declared deceased after his nephew Chavo found him in the hotel restroom. He apparently passed away while brushing his teeth. Here is an article I wrote about my memories of watching Eddie Guerrero on television.

Much has happened since then but nothing good. At the time it was not known that he was probably still on growth hormones or steroids. Also, last Summer the Chris Benoit Double Homicide-Suicide occurred. I also promised myself that I will do my best to live a happy life. I will have to try harder I guess, but I must try.
