Raw and ECW Talk,

RAW:

We open with a recap video of the "Bragging Rights" pay per view last night.

Chris Jericho and Big Show (JeriShow) open tonight's show as they hit the ring with the trophy Jericho's Team Smackdown won last night due to Big Show turning on the Raw group. Show starts by saying that despite what he did last night, he's still a proud member of the Raw roster. Jericho interupts him by saying he doesn't have to explain. Jericho says that Show did what he did because he's a man of loyalty to him and that supersedes his loyalty to Raw. Big Show says there's something he needs to tell him, but Jericho says there's something also he needs to say. He thanks Big Show for stopping D-X and punching Triple H. He gives him kudos.

Chris Jericho vs Kofi Kingston

We're back and the match is just now getting underway. They lock up and Kofi pushes Jericho up against the ropes, but Jericho quickly goes outside to walk around a little bit. He gets back in and Kofi again takes him back up against the ropes, but the ref breaks it up. He then charges Jericho, but Jericho takes advantage with a kick to the gut. He then throws Kofi into the corner, charges, but Kofi counters with a kick. Kofi hits a big dropkick and goes for a pin, but Jericho kicks out.

Kofi begins to work over Jericho's left arm with a couple of knees. He goes for another cover, but only gets a two count. Jericho regains the offense advantage and starts working over Kofi with punches and kicks, followed by a headlock. Kofi works his way back to his feet, throws Jericho off the ropes, but is hit by a shoulder block. Jericho then runs the ropes, but is hit with a leg kick that makes Jericho roll to the outside. Kofi leaps through the ropes and hits him with a shoulder while he's on the outside.

They make their way back to the ring and while Kofi is delivering punches in the corner, Jericho throws him off onto his back. The ref starts a 10 count on Kofi and makes it to 6 or so before Kingston gets up on the apron. Jericho does his usual dropkick sequence and nails it sending Kofi to the outside mat. This takes us to a break.

We're back and Jericho is in control. He applies a headlock again. Kofi starts working his way out of the headlock with a couple of punches...goes off the ropes and Jericho tries for a knee, but Kofi reverses into a roll-up for a two count. Jericho quickly follows with a pin of his own that only gets two. Chris starts taunting Kofi, but is met with more punches as Kofi tries to gain momentum. Jericho attempts a running bulldog, but Kofi counters and sends Jericho into the corner. Kofi hits the Boom Drop and then Jericho tries the Walls of Jericho quickly after. Kofi counters.

After a series of exchanges, Kofi goes to the top rope, but is met with a punch from Jericho. Jericho attempts a superplex from the top, but Kofi counters and throws Jericho off face first. He does a cross-body, but Jericho counters into a pin for a two count. Kofi goes for the "Trouble In Paradise", but Jericho counters and tries to put the Walls of Jericho back on. Kofi counters again into a pin for a two count. Jericho then hits the "Code Breaker", but takes too long to pin him and Kofi kicks out at two. Chris then argues with the referee and as he turns around, he's met with the "Trouble In Paradise". He covers and gets the three count!

WINNER: Kofi Kingston

We come back with a promo pushing Sheamus' debut tonight on Raw.

Melina/Santino Marella vs Jillian/Chavo Guerrero

The bell sounds and we're starting off with the men. Chavo taunts Santino and slaps him, but Santino punches him and lands a back bodydrop. He then hits an elbow, but misses an elbow drop which allows Chavo to take over with punches and kicks. Jillian takes a cheap shot on Santino while he's there in the corner. Chavo goes for a pin, but a kick out. He continues with kicks, but misses a clothesline and Santino hits a hip toss. Chavo takes Jillian in and she slaps Santino. He tags Melina in and she does a pretty cool reversal, but Jillian lands a huge clothesline. Hornswoggle comes out and distracts Jillian and Chavo and it allows Melina to hit her leg drop finisher thing and get the three count. Sloppy finishing sequence by the ladies.

WINNERS: Melina and Santino Marella

We come back with a video recap of the Cena/Orton match last night and Cole makes mention that this was Cena's 7th title win. Justin Roberts tries to announce John Cena to the ring, but Legacy comes out instead (just DiBiase and Rhodes). They head to the ring with microphones.

Cody Rhodes talks first saying that the "Champ is...not here". Rhodes said that Cena was going to have to wait because The Legacy is here. DiBiase says just because Orton can't fight Cena for the title, they can and at Survivor Series, they will be bringing the title back to The Legacy where it belongs. He continues by saying that they didn't ask the guest hosts for this because they didn't have to. They are making a direct challenge to Cena. DiBiase says that he can face one of them or both of them. They're cut off by Cena's music and the WWE Champion makes his way to the ring.

Large "Cena" chant before he starts talking. He finally begins and says that he doesn't have to brag about last night. It was exactly what it was supposed to be: the very best competing in one final showdown. He said that he can speak for Orton and that both of them were exhausted following the match. He said the reason they went to those lengths was for them and for the WWE Championship. They also did it for all of the fans and most importantly, they did it because the John Cena/Randy Orton rivalry needed to end and it did.

Cena then says that everyone is excited about Raw because they want to know who he'll be facing, but he mocks the idea that they're excited about his opponent being Legacy. Rhodes says their not Randy Orton and he agrees. Cena says that the truth is he beat Randy Orton last night and he earned the right to say "No more" to their feud, including Legacy. He then says that if they want a shot at the Championship, they need to fall in line like everyone else and work for it because "that's how it's done around here". He continues by saying that the two of them haven't earned it yet. He asks the crowd and they agree.

Cena says that he was talking to the Raw guest hosts about the two of them having a match tonight and they need to get ready for their opponents. He motions to the entrance and MVP's music hits. He and Mark Henry make their way to the ring and apparently, that tag match is next.

The Legacy vs MVP/Mark Henry

We're back and Legacy have the offense advantage. Rhodes has just been tagged in and is working over MVP with punches. He then puts a crossface type of headlock on him, but MVP doesn't give up. We get a shot of Logano and Busch in the back watching the match on the monitors. MPV finally makes a tag to Henry and he comes in fists and elbows blazing. He then lifts Rhodes up by the neck and holds him there, but DiBiase makes the save with a clip to the back of the leg. He then gets the tag and comes in with a ton of kicks and punches.

He takes him to their corner and he and Rhodes tag in and out a time or two taking turns with kicks and chokes. Another tag to Rhodes he puts a headlock on Henry. He then tries to hit MVP, but MVP counters with a punch of his own. MVP tries to get in the ring, but the ref keeps him back while Legacy double-team Henry. Another headlock applied to Henry by Rhodes. Henry gets out of it by delivering a VERY high back bodydrop. He then makes the tag and MVP comes in with suplexes, punches, and elbows on Ted DiBiase. He then delivers the "Ballin" elbow drop. Rhodes makes the save on the pin attempt.

MVP does a sunset flip over DiBiase into a pin and while DiBiase is wabbling trying to avoid the pin, Mark Henry clotheslines him from the ring apron and MVP gets the 3 count.

WINNERS: MVP and Mark Henry

The Miz vs Evan Bourne

They lock up and Miz takes control with some kicks. He goes for an early cover, but a quick kick out. He then starts choking Bourne with a knee against the second rope, followed by a belly-to-back suplex. He places a sit down, double-arm submission and the ref asks Bourne if he wants to quit. Bourne doesn't and Miz continues the move. Bourne finally makes his way to his feet and after a couple of quick counters, Bourne hits a double knee drop and gets a one-count. He then has a series of offense move with a leaping hurricarana being one of them. Another pin, another kick out.

Miz regains control and Jack Swagger makes his way out to ringside. He takes a microphone and says that no one is watching Miz's match. He said that the real person everyone is watching is Eve who is sitting down at ringside. He said or maybe it's Eve watching him and who can blame her. Miz comes outside to confront Swagger and as they are arguing, Bourne flies with a cross body and lands on both of them. Bourne then jumps back into the ring before the ref counts to 10 and wins the match.

WINNER (via count-out): Evan Bourne

Sheamus vs Jamie Noble



Prior to the match, Sheamus gets on the mic and says that it's his first night on Raw and he's here to make an impression. The match starts and Noble hits a kick, but Sheamus hits him with a shoulder block that sends him to the outside. Sheamus follows and runs him into the steel steps. He rolls Noble back inside, follows him, and hits a couple of elbow drops. He covers but pulls Noble's head up before the three count. He then takes Noble up to his shoulder for a submission type of move. Noble fights out and lands a couple of kicks, but Sheamus throws him into the corner. Noble moves when Sheamus charges and tries a roll up, but Sheamus fights out and knees him multiple times in the corner.

Sheamus continues with a series of knee drops to the back of Noble's head while he's laying flat on the crowd. Sheamus picks Noble up and hits a couple of back breakers and when Noble reaches his feet again, Sheamus hits a huge boot to the head and gets the victory.

WINNER: Sheamus
Triple H vs Big Show

Big Show and Chris Jericho (still carrying the trophy he won last night) are already in the ring once we return. The D-X music then hits and Triple H and Shawn Michaels make their way to the ring. The bell sounds and they lock up, but after Triple H gets away, he gets a microphone and says that the Raw guest hosts made a change to the match. It's now a Lumberjack match and the lumberjacks are all the guys Show screwed over last night. Henry, Swagger, Chris Masters, MVP, Rhodes, Santino some others come out and send Jericho takes off through the crowd to the back.

Shawn then takes the microphone and says that the match is also a No Disqualifications match. He dismisses the official and says they have a special referee for tonight's match. John Cena's music hits and he comes out in a ref shirt. Once in the ring, Big Show charges Triple H, but Triple H ducks and pulls down the top rope sending him to the outside. The lumberjacks start beating on Show as we go to a break.

We're back and both are back in the ring. Big Show has the offense, but Triple H quickly gets control. He jumps on Show's back and applies a sleeper which Big Show breaks by flipping Hunter over his shoulders. Big Show charges Triple H, but H moves and attempts a bodyslam, but Show falls on him. Big Show lifts Hunter up by his hair, throws him off the ropes, but Hunter kicks him. He then runs at Show but is met with a huge spear.

Big Show then starts standing on top of Hunter near the ropes as Shawn and the other lumberjacks look on. Show then delivers a series of slaps to the chest in the corner. The men outside the ring start rallying the crowd behind Hunter and he starts battling back with punchs, but Big Show hits a sidewalk slam. Cover and a kick out at two. Big Show then starts squeezing Hunter's shoulder and delievers four headbutts. Hunter does the crotch chop taunting Show but that only pisses him off. He hits a bodyslam and as he runs the ropes, Chris Masters grabs his leg. Show grabs him and brings him into the ring and takes him out with a big punch. This allows Hunter to regain the offense though as the match continues.
As Hunter is trying to take Big Show down with some running shoulder blocks, Big Show finally catches up and attempts a chokeslam. Hunter reverses it into a DDT. Big Show goes for the Pedigree, but Show reverses it with a back bodydrop. With Hunter down near the corner, Big Show goes to the second rope and hits a splash. He covers Triple H, but as Cena is counting, right before three, he jumps up holding his hand like he hurt it. Show gets up and gets in his face as Cena smiles and tells him to turn around.

He gets drop-kicked by a couple lumberjacks and then all of them come in taking turns on him. Bourne nails his Shooting Star Press and Santino gets in and starts mocking him. He chokeslams him but is then nailed with the "Trouble In Paradise" by Kofi. Cena follows it with the Attitude Adjustment. Michaels is now in the ring hits the Sweet Chin Music, followed by the Pedigree from Triple H. A cover and Cena counts to three.

WINNER: Triple H

After The Match: The Raw guest hosts come back out while Cena, Michaels, and Triple H are standing in the ring. They thank the crowd for letting them guest host the show. Kyle says that they've been thinking all night about who should face Cena at Survivor Series for the title. He says they couldn't agree until one guy made them agree. Hornswoggle's music hits and they announce that at Survivor Series, it's going to be a triple threat beween Cena, Michaels, and Triple H for the WWE Championship. We go off the air with them staring each other down in the ring after just hearing the news.

Jerry Lawler puts it over as "every man for himself" at Survivor Series.
