WWE Results News

To begin ECW, Mark Henry comes down to the ring accompanied by Tony Atlas. Tazz asks why last week’s events went down as they did. Atlas says that he would graciously carry Mark Henry’s bags, much to the crowd’s booing.

Atlas invites a young man from the crowd in to see if he can bend a frying pan. Ted, as he seems to be named, tries and fails. Mark Henry contorts the frying pan into a roll. That is actually quite impressive.

- Mike Knox beat Shannon Moore. Knox used his nameless finisher and scored the pin.

- Evan Bourne pinned Chavo Guerrero (w/Bam Neely). Before the match, a pretaped Evan promo aired. He said he'll defy the odds in this match because he defies gravity. Ugh. Evan tried to go up top early, but Chavo caught him and knocked him off the top rope. Bourne took a nice bump by slamming his head into the ring apron on the way down. Shooting star press ends it.

Backstage, Colin Delaney walked talking Teddy's assistant when Henry and Atlas interrupted. Atlas told Colin he didn't have to worry because they knew he had nothing to do with what happened earlier. Henry walked away, but it was too good to be true for Colin. Henry stormed back into the picture and choked Delaney.

Matt and Jeff Hardy beat John Morrison and The Miz in a non-title match. Plenty of Hardy chants from the women and kids in the crowd. After some back and forth action, the show cut to commercial. The tag champs worked over Jeff for a while until he made the hot tag to Matt.

The match really picked up down the stretch. Matt hit a crucifix powerbomb on Morrison for a nearfall. Miz ran in and was greeted with the Side Effect. Morrison recovered and performed Moonlight Drive on Matt. Jeff came off the top with a Swanton Bomb on Morrison and Matt scored the pin for his team..

Here's what went down on WWE Raw last night...

As soon as the refs get them separated, the arena explodes with pyro and Kane walks to the ring. Michael Cole and Jerry Lawler stand up and look ready to run, as Kane makes his way to the announce table holding a bag. Kane looks at the two announcers and says he is sorry.

Back from commercial, Kane is backstage with CM Punk. Kane says deep down inside, he knows he is dead. He tells Punk that they have been partners before, but tonight he needs him in the ring one-on-one. Punk says he has a huge match in a few days. Kane says it's not about the title, he needs this. Punk says he needs to prove to everyone that he is not a fluke and says Kane is on, he's got his match. Punk asks Kane what's with the bag he's holding? Kane just laughs and walks off.

Santino Marella vs. Beth Phoenix
Beth slams Marella to the mat. Santino recovers, and charges Phoenix in the corner. Beth dodges it and then rolls up Santino. Beth Phoenix gets the three count.

Kelly Kelly comes to the ring for a match, but instead of an opponent, Cody Rhodes and Ted Dibiase come to the ring. They tell her they don’t care she had a match, and tell her to leave. Cody says he and Ted aren’t bad, they are realistic. Ted says they are the future whether you like it or not. Hacksaw Jim Duggan interrupts the champs.

- Shane McMahon appears from WWE Headquarters. He talks about his father experiencing an accident last week. Shane said in respect of his father's privacy, they will not reveal his condition or anything else at this time. Shane asks WWE employees to pull together during this time of uncertainty.

- Jim Ross is on his way out to the ring. JR gets a big reaction from his hometown crowd. He gets into the ring and salutes the thousands of fans in attendance tonight. He said he is excited about a new journey he is embarking on as the new play-by-play voice for Friday Night Smackdown. He thanks Jerry Lawler and says he is a special guy. JR calls his time on WWE Raw an amazing run. He thanks everyone for being here tonight and encourages everyone to eat some more BBQ when Edge's music hits.

Edge appears with the world title over his shoulder and Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder close behind him. Edge has a big smile on his face as his pyro goes off. Edge said when he heard JR was having a farewell speech tonight, he just had to make an appearance. He said JR's arrogance never ceases to amaze him. Edge said instead of JR yelling "Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold!" it will now have to be "Edge Wins! Edge Wins! Edge Wins!"

He asks Hawkins and Ryder to escort JR out of the building. JR walks out and leaves the ring. Edge says his farewell speech is officially over as JR leaves the ring with Hawkins and Ryder right behind him.

Edge remains in the middle of the ring as the fans boo him again. He said now that he took care of that he did have a reason to be here tonight. Edge wants to point out to all the Raw viewers that this "flagship show" doesn't have a General Manager... unlike his show that has the greatest GM in history, his fiancee, the love of his life, Vickie Guerrero. He said she is resting comfortably and thanks the fans for asking. Edge said this show is also missing The Undertaker. He adds the entire WWE Universe is missing him since he banished him from the entire WWE and adds your welcome.

Edge said there is one other thing this show is missing, oh yeah, a World Champion. He said he wanted to come here tonight to let John Cena, Shawn Michaels, Rey Mysterio or Batista know they will never have a shot at his World Heavyweight Championship. Edge says unless there is another Draft, fans will never see him on Monday night's ever again. He drops the mic and as he gets to the top of the ramp, Batista's music hits and Edge stops.

Santino Marella's music hits. Santino grabs the mic and said just like Shane McMahon said earlier, we have to pull everyone together and officially welcomes Rey Mysterio to Raw. He laughs and says personally, he doesn't see what the big deal is because anyone who hides behind a mask is either ugly, stupid or is The Batman!

He says there is a reason Mysterio has never been on Raw. Santino says Raw is where true superstars like himself rise and shine. Mysterio hits Santino with the mic and lights him up with some right hands. Mysterio drop toe holds Santino on the second rope and connects with the 619. Mysterio celebrates and heads up the ramp.

- We are back live and John Cena is out to a big reaction. He said no, I did not win the WWE Title last night. Cena said he was defeated by Triple H, but it is a loss he takes with pride. He said last night's match proved one thing: we are the best two in this business and that match will go down in history. Cena said just like tonight, you have all been part of history and that you will look back and say you were there when CM Punk cashed in the "Money in the Bank" briefcase and became the new World Heavyweight Champion.
