March Week 2

Raw
Match 1. Rock vs. Ryder
A rematch from last week, let's see what happens. Zack got more offense in this week, but Rock was having none of it. After a spinebuster, Rocky hit the Rock Bottom and it was over.

After the match, Rey and Bryan attacked The Rock.

Match 2. Michaels vs. Ziggler  #1 Contender's match
Winner, I assume, will face Foley at 'Mania. If that's the case I will be controlling whoever is the challenger to make sure Foley loses. HBK was working on the arm of Ziggler early on, but Dolph was in complete control. After locking in the sharpshooter, HBK hit the Sweet Chin Music.

After the match, an announcement was made that it was now a falls count anywhere (as all my matches are). HBK hit the SCM again to retain his #1 contender status.

Match 3. Foley vs. Kane
Well, it's not Nash vs. Foley, but I'm sick of Foley fighting every week. The champ was putting the hurt on Foley. Ryan came out with a chair, but Foley hit the double-arm DDT to win...ugh.

Main Event. Hell in a Cell - Punk vs. Cena  #1 Contender's match
Kane was at ringside to watch this match. Well, this is one way to determine who deserves to face the champ.  A great back and forth match. Both men executed their own offense. Punk hit the GTS, but Cena kicked out and began his comeback. Cena hit the AA and scored the pin.


Smackdown

Match 1. Regal vs. Henry
These two men are climbing the ranks for the World Title. Henry, I'm ok with but I don't know how I feel about Regal as my top champion. Zeke interfered in this match, going after Henry, but he was able to pull out the victory.

Match 2. Sheamus vs. Kidd  #1 Contender's match
The winner will face Bryan for the IC Title. It seems Bryan has moved on to the World Title, so having Sheamus or Kidd win the IC title would be a good thing. Kidd put together a big combo and won with his finisher to win the right to challenge for the IC belt.

The match was restarted as a falls count anywhere match. Sheamus won the restart to become the new #1 contender.

Match 3. Taker vs. Miz
The champ is keeping the ring rust off before 'Mania. Miz wasn't going to give up easily. Taker hit the chokeslam, but Miz wasn't fazed by it. He was able to hit the Mic Check to beat the World Champ.

After the match, Miz picked up a chair and was going to assault Taker, but Edge made his return. He took the chair from Miz and cracked Taker over the head.

Main Event. Last Man Standing - Bryan vs. Show  #1 Contender's match
Now this is more like today's WWE. The World Title picture got a little more interesting with what just happened. Last man standing matches are interesting, but not in a video game. They take way too long. I just want to get to WrestleMania. Bryan became the number 1 contender after Show received a back suplex and didn't get up


Recap: Edge is finally recovered from his injury and is now a heel. This shakes up the World Title picture with Edge, Show, Miz, and Bryan all sniffing at the top spot.
