June Week 4, Year 4

Four weeks until Money in the Bank. These next two weeks will be used to scout Raw and Smackdown talent to see who deserves a spot in the match.

Raw
Match 1. Randy Orton vs. Santino Marella
Santino is finally debuting on Raw. However, his first match is against the Legend Killer. Santino hit a bulldog and a swinging neck breaker. Orton fought back and eventually went for an RKO, but Santino blocked it and hit the Santino Stunner. Orton got up and landed the RKO to win.

Match 2. Jeff Hardy vs. Booker vs. Triple H
This match went almost 20 minutes, but it felt shorter. Booker busted Jeff open with a bulldog. After Jeff dropkicked Booker, he received a Pedigree. All three men went after each other. Booker connected with a super kick on Jeff. Jeff hit a springboard elbow on Triple H and Booker capitalized to get the win.

Match 3. Big Show vs. Jericho
Show landed the WMD, but Jericho kicked out. The match moved to the outside where Jericho hit a heel kick and Show had Jericho up for a military press. They made it back in and Show hit the Final Cut. Jericho hit two Codebreakers and won after a high-angle suplex.

After the match, Jericho grabbed a chair but Kane ran down and scared Jericho. Kane had the chair and hit Show.

Main Event. Shawn Michaels vs. Dolph Ziggler w/ Jack Swagger
Swagger kept Michaels on the outside away from his partner. Dolph joined in and hit the ZigZag. They went back into the ring where Ziggler hit two German suplexes. Ziggler hit a Fame-asser which busted HBK open. He then locked Michaels into a sleeper hold to win.

Smackdown
Match 1. Christian vs. JBL
This was a short match that saw both men get some offense in. JBL hit a suplex and took Christian down by the knee to score the 3 count.

Match 2. Shelton and Angle vs. Matt and ???
Matt's partner is...John Morrison. A little underwhelming. I thought someone was returning. Shelton hit JoMo with a huge elbow off the top rope. Both teams used double team moves effectively. Angle stomped on Matt's leg and then got the win.

Match 3. Kofi vs. Sheamus
Yay! My Universe is learning! Kofi was flying all over the ring, trying to take down the US Champ. Sheamus halted him with a devastating back breaker. Kofi recovered and hit SOS. Sheamus kicked out and begin his dominance. After an Irish Curse, Sheamus hit the Brogue Kick to win.

Main Event. Iron Man - Undertaker vs. ???
As we've seen in previous years, Taker is great in iron man matches. Who is Taker's opponent? It's Batista! Is he back for good? Five minute in and neither man scored a point. At 9:30, Taker hit the Tombstone, but Batista kicked out at 1. After a leg drop, Taker scored the first point. Thirty seconds later, Batista hit the Batista Bomb, but Taker kicked out. Taker landed two chokeslams in a row, but Batista still kicked out. Taker hit a second Tombstone to go up 2-0. JBL ran down and watched as Taker destroyed Batista. Taker scored his third point at 4:36. Another Tombstone, another point for Taker. Batista finally scored with 1:40 left after a Batista Bomb. The final score was 4-1. 

Recap: Kane returned.
