WWE RAW Results News (Page 10)

The show opened with Lillian Garcia introducing WWE Champion Edge, who came out to the ring with Lita. Meanwhile, JR and King spoke of some disturbing news reported on wwe.com earlier today (involving Edge and Lita going to John Cena’s parent’s house). Edge took the mic and said that the “champ is here.” The former champ, not so much. He said he wanted to tell us a story, as the crowd chanted for Cena.

He said the story was about a champion, him, that was stressed out over having to face Cena at Summerslam and being able to lose the belt via DQ. Edge informed us that he’d be facing Carlito later tonight, so all that being said…he’d been very busy. Thus, he and Lita decided to take a joy ride earlier today to the home of John Cena. Edge showed footage of him and Lita in the Cena house. He insulted Cena’s wrestling skills and wiped his nose on Cena’s Larry Bird throwback jersey. They perused the home and talked to Mr. Cena. Edge said that he told Cena’s dad that he was going to beat the hell out of his son. He also smacked the hell out of him.

They showed the footage of Edge slapping John’s dad several times. JR said it was pathetic, while Edge commented on Cena being at home w/ his dad. He then gave us a history lesson, taking us back to Wrestlemania 21 (where he won the MITB ladder match to get a shot at the belt), New Year’s Revolution (where he won the belt), Live Sex on TV that brought really strong ratings, the Royal Rumble rematch where Cena regained the title, Edge regaining the title on Raw, Cena sitting at home nursing his dad back to health, and the final chapter w/ a happy ending that’ll see Edge retain at Summerslam.

Match 1: Women’s Champion Mickie James vs. Lita (w/ Edge)
- Lita got first strike points with a headlock and a hurricanrana. She maintained control in the corner, hammering away on the champion. Mickie came back and mounted Lita for several right handed shots. James then connected with a dropkick and headed to the top rope. Lita recovered, though, and threw Mickie back to the mat via the hair. She then draped Mickie’s neck across the bottom rope and came down on it with her knee. James tried for a comeback, but Lita thwarted it with a side-Russian leg sweep. The challenger proceeded to lock in a surf board stretch.

James rolled through and kicked Lita in the face. Edge looked concerned as Mickie drilled Lita with a flying forearm and a running back elbow. She then hit a hurricanrana of her own and clothesline for a near fall. Lita came back with a rake of the eyes and tried for a spike DDT, but Mickie held onto the ropes and caused Lita to throw herself to the mat. Mickie tried for a pin with the ropes as leverage, but Edge threw her legs off. Lita tried the same thing, but the ref caught her. Mickie tried for a roll-up with a bridge, but Lita kicked out! Lita then countered the Mickie James DDT finish and took advantage of an Edge distraction by drilling Mickie with the championship belt. Thus, Lita became the new Women’s champion at 5:03.

Backstage, Mick Foley congratulated Lita on winning the Women’s title. He said he’d been very upset with himself for the last week for accepting Ric Flair’s challenge. He said he was comforted only by the fact that he’d get to destroy Flair’s career at Summerslam. Foley said that the facts state that he’d only been busted open 4 times in his ten year WWE career, whereas Ric was a bleeding machine. Thus, may one of them bleed to death at Summerslam. He invited Flair to come to ECW tomorrow night. He concluded by saying that he’d look forward to seeing Melina accompany her man, Johnny Nitro when he faces Flair later tonight.Match 2: Umaga (w/ Armando Alejandro Estrada) vs. Alex Sage
- Umaga dominated the jobber with his usual offense before getting the win with the Samoan Spike. Umaga got the squash victory.

The show opened with a few still photos of Graceland, but then the camera cut to the backstage area, where Vince and Shane were dressed up as Elvis. The McMahons said they left DX “all shook up” at the end of last week’s show.

Vince said HHH was dancing to the “jailhouse rock” and HBK ended up in the “heartbreak hotel.” VKM said he was going to “be cruel” to Triple H tonight by putting him in a match against Umaga. They proceeded to break out into a rendition of “Hound Dog.” Vince said “Elvis has left the building.”

Match 1: Women’s Champion Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus
- A lock-up started us off, but just as the two were jockeying for position, WWE Champion Edge (w/ Lita) came to the ring and demanded that the show and the match be stopped. Edge said he was sick of taking a backseat and told Mickie to shut up. He said the match was over and he was taking over Raw. He asked Trish to stay and reminded us that he was a two-time WWE champion.

Edge said he was sick of getting no respect and that it wasn’t fair that he had to defend the WWE title against John Cena in Boston at Summerslam. He called the fans mindless sheep and said none of it was fair. He said that he had to put up with more crap than any champ in the history of the company.

Edge displayed the Summerslam promotional poster, featuring DX, John Cena, Rey Mysterio, and Trish. He then bashed several of those featured on the poster before turning his attention to the cover of the new WWE magazine featuring Trish Stratus. Edge said he was hoping the WWE would make up for leaving him off the Summerslam poster by putting him on the new WWE magazine cover, but instead Trish gets it. Lita then took the mic and called Trish a no-talent slut and asked Edge if she could remove her from the ring.

Trish fought her, but Edge grabbed her and placed her out of harm’s way. Lita then speared Trish and set her up for an Edge spear. Carlito then came into the ring and made the save. However, as Carlito tended to Trish, Edge came in and speared the crap out of him.

Match 2: Shelton Benjamin vs. Kane in a #1 contender match for the IC title
-(IC Champ Johnny Nitro, w/ Melina, sat at ringside for this number one contender match). Kane tried to do his normal pre-match pyro ordeal, but Shelton hit him with a springboard bulldog to start the match. He tried to follow with a leapfrog out of the corner and into a high risk, but Kane countered and tried to snake eyes. Shelton countered into a roll-up, but Kane took control soon after. Kane then splashed SB in the corner and followed with a sidewalk slam.

The Big Red Machine went up top and connected on a flying clothesline and set up for the chokeslam, but Shelton countered. Kane regained momentum and tried for the finish again, but SB again countered, this time into a DDT. Benjamin then tried for the T-Bone suplex, but Kane shoved him into the turnbuckle. He tried for another splash, but Benjamin dropkicked his knee and sent his face crashing into the top turnbuckle. The finish came when Kane countered Shelton’s attempt at a flying clothesline and hit the chokeslam for the win. Kane became #1 contender to the IC title at 2:45.

John Cena came to the ring to a mixed reaction and said that he was as riled up as the crowd tonight. He said he didn’t like Edge and mocked his quest for respect and his griping about not being on the Summerslam poster. Cena said that Edge was supposed to be on it, but that research showed that Edge’s face scared kids. He said Lita was supposed to be on it, too, but she got on the 711 poster as spokeswoman for Slurpy’s for Herpes.

Cena commented that Edge did get to be on the poster for CBI, Crying Bitch Illustrated…he showed a fake cover. He then got a cheap pop by saying he wouldn’t mind if Summerslam was in Memphis before challenging Edge to come to the ring and earn the respect he wanted. Coach interrupted, though, and said Edge would not be coming out to accept that challenge, but rather he’d be teaming w/ Lita to face Carlito and Trish. Given that Cena was hungry for action, though, Coach set him up against Viscera.

Match 3: John Cena vs. Viscera
- The match started during the commercial break. Cena tried for a sunset flip, but Viscera tried for a butt drop. Cena dodged it, though, and tried for diving shoulder tackle. Viscera proceeded to catch him with a spinning wheel kick and follow with a running splash in the corner. He later hit a falling body slam for a near fall and locked in a modified camel clutch. Cena powered out and fought back with knee lifts and right hands, and then hit the seldom-used Throwback.

The show opened with the DX entrance, but only HBK came out to the ring. As the crowd chanted for DX and HBK, Michaels reminded us of how he had pulled a prank on the McMahons, telling them that Stephanie had gone into labor. He said that life often imitates art, meaning that she actually was giving birth to her first child tonight … seriously.

HBK claimed that Trips was, unbeknownst to the McMahons, at that very same hospital. Michaels amusingly commented that he was pretty sure that Trips knew who the father of Steph’s baby was. At that point, the Coach came to the ring with his cell phone on his ear and told HBK that the DX member would not be allowed to run amuck. Coach said that VKM had put him in charge. Michaels grabbed Coach’s phone (as it was implied that Vince was on the phone) and told McMahon that Cleveland had two words for him. HBK demonstrated how to do Lamaze breathing, as Coach snatched the phone away from Michaels.

Apparently, Vince was shouting instructions in Coach’s ear, and Coach didn’t seem pleased with the orders. McMahon made a match between Coach and HBK, which Shawn, JR, and King all got a big kick out of. The crowd chanted “HBK,” as Michaels laughed hysterically. He just kept laughing and laughing…

JR and King introduced highlights of the Hogan-Orton situation from Saturday Night’s Main-Event. They then hyped Hulk Hogan’s appearance for later tonight on Raw…

Match 1: World Tag Champs The Spirit Squad vs. The Highlanders
- Kenny started it off against Rory and took him the Scotsman down with a shoulder tackle before tagging in Mikey. Mikey was unable to maintain the offensive due to injuries suffered a week ago, allowing Rory to tag Robby. Robby and Rory proceeded to set-up and connect on simultaneous 10-mounted punches in opposite corners. The Squad took control, though, on a Kenny dropkick that caught Robby square in the jaw. Mikey tagged back in, but got a neckbreaker for his troubles. Rory got the tag and cleaned house, highlighted by a Rock Bottom into a backbreaker.

The finish came when the rest of the Squad provided a distraction for the ref, allowing Kenny to regain form and hit the Roll of the Dice for the win. The Squad retained at 3:29.

Mick Foley, live from WWE studios in CT, said that he was hurt when Ric Flair called him fat boy…but not b/c he called him a fat boy…No, it was because all that Flair could come up with was the common insult used by a fourth grader. Foley said that Flair had nothing left and was still using the same old tired schtick he used for years. Mick claimed it was pathetic that Flair resorted to becoming a second rate side show act (by going to ECW and falling on thumb tacks) to try and lure him into a match.

Foley asked what part of “no” did Flair not understand. He said he wouldn’t face Flair anywhere or anytime, but that he’d come to Raw next week so that he could address Flair man-to-man for, among other things, attacking a beautiful female friend of his (Melina).

The Nature Boy then came to the ring (looking as sharp as always). Flair said he wanted Foley to be half the man that he is everyday of his life and accept his challenge to a match at any place or time. At that point, WWE Champion Edge came to the ramp and said that he was now the man…not Flair. He continued his way to the ring and said he was tired of hearing Flair’s nonsense and, as the MVP of Raw, he planned on telling Ric what was really going on.

At that point, Johnny Nitro showed up and attacked Ric. Flair fought back, but Edge joined the fray. After a short double-team beatdown, John Cena came to the rescue, causing the heels to flee the scene.

Backstage, Carlito and Trish were flirting. Carlito spoke Spanish in Trish’s ear, which Stratus did not comprehend. She wished him luck in his match, anyway. They decided to hang out later.
