NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS, Year 3

Undertaker is involved in two title matches. That's not going to happen. All six titles are on the line tonight. Tomorrow night is the draft. Things could be shaken up in the next 24 hours.

Match 1. Edge vs. Rhino vs. JBL  United States Championship
This match took over 20 minutes. JBL hit Edge with some right hands and busted him open. Edge went to spear JBL, but Rhino interrupted with a pile driver. He then Gored Edge. Rhino landed a few moves on JBL as Edge was just pacing back and forth. After a few punches, Rhino pinned JBL to win the title.

Match 2. Matt Morgan and Big Show vs. The Dudleyz  WWE Tag Team Championship
Morgan and Show kept Bubba away from D-Von. Morgan landed the running bicycle kick. D-Von came in and had more success than Bubba. He lifted Morgan over his head then dropped him on his back. As strong as the Dudleyz are, Show and Morgan were stronger. Morgan lifted D-Von up and planted him on his head for the win.

Match 3. Steel Cage - Jeff Hardy vs. Benoit vs. Regal  Intercontinental Championship
Regal came out of nowhere to win this match. Benoit was climbing but was pulled down by Jeff. Jeff was climbing but Regal pulled him down. Jeff hit Benoit with the Whisper in the Wind. Benoit got up and put Jeff in the Crossface. Regal climbed the cage. Jeff went to pull him down, but he punched him off and continued climbing to win. Three matches, three title changes.

Match 4. Kane and RVD vs. Flair and Triple H  World Tag Team Championship
All four men were in the ring at once. RVD went for the frog splash on Flair, but he was able to move out of the way. Flair landed his patented nut grab on both Kane and RVD. For some reason, Flair was on the top rope and connected with a dropkick on RVD. RVD caught Flair in a roll-up and won.

Match 5. Hell in a Cell - Scott Steiner vs. Goldberg  World Heavyweight Championship
These two have battled for the World Title so many times already. Both men landed some powerful moves. Steiner hit Goldberg with the belly-to-belly suplex. Steiner hit a German suplex on Goldberg and one of the pieces of the cell broke off. After a running powerslam, Steiner pinned Goldberg to retain his title.

Main Event. Battle Royal - Undertaker vs. Angle vs. Lesnar vs. Eddie Guerrero vs. Rey vs. Edge
WWE Championship
After losing the US Title, Edge inserted himself into the vacant WWE Title match. Eddie went to toss out Angle, but he was able to hang on. Eddie was eventually successful as he kicked Angle off the apron. Edge was the next eliminated. Taker got his second elimination by taking out Eddie. Taker and Lesnar teamed up to take out Rey. Lesnar hit the F5 on Taker. That didn't faze the Deadman as he scored his fourth elimination and won the title.

Recap: I regret putting Regal in the IC Title match. The Dudleyz reign as tag champs is finally over. Taker is champ again. Cena will get a rematch when he returns.
