July Week 1, Year 5

Money in the Bank is 3 weeks away. This will primarily be a WWE pay-per-view. However, the MitB ladder match will be a cross-branded match. 3 WWE and 3 TNA stars will compete for the briefcase.

Wow, Raw's card is STACKED!

Raw
Match 1. Alberto Del Rio vs. Damien Sandow
After a suplex, Sandow connected with the M14 neck breaker. Del Rio came back with a tornado DDT and a heel kick. He then locked in the cross armbreaker. Sandow broke out. He hit another DDT and took ADR down with a drop toe hold to get the 3 count.

Match 2. Triple H vs. Brock Lesnar vs. Randy Orton
What. A. Match. About 30 seconds into the match, Lesnar and Triple H hit Orton with simultaneous punches. The partnership didn't last long. Lesnar hit Triple H with a release German suplex outside of the ring. Much later, Lesnar hit Orton with a release German suplex as well. Orton then hit Triple H with an RKO. Triple H was hit with the F5 and was pinned by Lesnar.

Match 3. Undertaker vs. The Rock
I can't believe this match is happening on Raw. This is a PPV-quality match. Taker went for the chokeslam, but Rock reversed it into a DDT. Rock then hit a Samoan drop and the Rock Bottom. Triple H slowly walked down with a sledgehammer. He came in the ring and hit Taker with the Pedigree. Rock then got the win.

Main Event. John Cena vs. The Miz
Miz hit a swinging neck breaker. Cena got up and hit the AA and pinned Miz. The Rock came down with a chair. He ran into the ring and swung the chair like a maniac. He wanted to break up the pin, but nothing happened. Cesaro ran out from the crowd and went after Rock. Cena was still in the pin and won.

Impact
Match 1. MCMG vs. Gunner and Kid Kash
Gunner landed a Death Valley Driver on Shelley. Kash and Sabin then went head-to-head in the ring. Shelley hit Kash with a snapmare and Sabin landed a springboard elbow from the apron. They then landed some Poetry in Motion. However, for some reason, the MCMG were called for a DQ.

Match 2. Jeff Hardy vs. Bully Ray
It was announced that this is a falls count anywhere match. Bully won after a Bully Bomb, but after the match there was an announcement that it was restarted as a submission match. Does either man know a submission move? Jeff landed the Twist of Fate. He then pinned Ray and won... What?

After the match, the referee checked on Bully Ray.

Match 3. Samoa Joe and RVD vs. Abyss and Magnus
RVD hit Magnus with a heel kick and a snap slam. He then lifted Magnus on his shoulders and hit a rolling fireman's carry. Joe locked Abyss in the Coquina Clutch. RVD climbed the ropes and landed a 5-star Frog Splash to get the win.

Main Event. Austin Aries vs. Bobby Roode
Roode ran down and took down Aries before the bell rang. He then landed Pay Off. Aries was building momentum, but Roode stopped him short with a spine buster. Roode then locked him in a crossface. Aries broke out, but Roode landed a reverse DDT and pinned Aries with his feet on the ropes.

Recap: Raw has a lot going on right now. Ray is injured. I may have to strip him of the TV Title. The only thing I wish Universe had was keeping track of when the Superstar was last used, like in GM mode. It would be so much easier to keep track of.
