We pan around the arena, with thousands of enthusiastic WWE fans cheering and showing us their signs as Fast Fuse by Kasabian plays over the loud speakers. We then cut to ringside, to Michael Cole and JBL.
Michael Cole: WELCOME EVERYBODY TO WWE NO MERCY! I’m Michael Cole and alongside me is John Bradshaw Layfield. Tonight, three Championships will be on the line, including the World Heavyweight Championship!
JBL: That’s not all Michael, as we will see the final chapter to the greatest rivalry in recent times, as Batista will take on The Undertaker in a Hell in a Cell Match!
Cole: I cannot wait for this one John, the two most dominant forces in the WWE clashing one more time! Anyway that’s enough from us for now. Lets send it over to our Raw colleagues JR, and Jerry the King Lawler.
We then cut to the Raw Announce Table with Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler.
JR: Thanks Michael….There is no doubt that this is going to be one hell of a night King. Tonight we will witness quite possibly the biggest Tag Team Match of all time, as the WWE Champion Randy Orton teams up with Ken Kennedy to face John Cena and Chris Jericho!
King: The question, which everyone is asking JR, is how can John Cena and Chris Jericho can coexist tonight. And I can’t wait to see what goes down in this one JR.
JR: Also tonight Triple H goes one on one with Umaga, but lets kick off with some Triple Threat Action.
“ This Fire Burns” hits and CM Punk comes out to a thunderous pop from his hometown crowd. CM Punk slaps hands with fans at ringside, before entering the ring and saluting his hometown crowd.
JR: What a way to kick off the night, with CM Punk who can quite possibly win the Intercontinental Title in his hometown here tonight.
King: There was a lot of controversy JR about the way he lost the ECW Title to Randy Orton, one night after he won the belt. So this is his chance to right the wrongs from his ECW Title reign.
“Now Listen” hits and John Morrison comes out to some heat from the Chicago Crowd. He makes his traditional flashy (Awesome) entrance, before entering the ring and locking eyes with CM Punk.
JR: John Morrison and CM Punk have had a lot of problems in the past King, two months ago at Summerslam they were fighting over the ECW Championship. And tonight they are fighting over the Intercontinental Championship.
King: Who cares JR what about this entrance? Why don’t we have an entrance like John Morrison’s?
JR: If we were 40 years younger King, maybe we could.
“I spit in the face” hits and Carlito comes out to some big heat from the crowd. Carlito at the top of the ramp looks at his Intercontinental Title, and points to his opponents stating that they won’t win this belt.
King: JR this is unfair on Carlito. Carlito does not even have to get pinned to lose his title tonight, das not cool.
JR: The odds are definitely not favouring the Intercontinental Champion Carlito.

Winner: Still Intercontinental Champion Carlito in 12:32
The crowd gives big heat as Carlito scurries out of the ring and grabs hold of his Intercontinental Championship. Carlito kisses his belt and leaves the down the ramp with his arm raised up high, as CM Punk enters the ring and can’t believe what’s just happened. He rubs his hands through his hair, as Carlito mouths to Punk “Now Das Cool”.
JR: Carlito steals the victory. What a tough break there for CM Punk, he had the match won with the Go To Sleep but an opportunistic Intercontinental Champion takes advantage and picks up the pieces for the win.
King: What a way to kick off No Mercy JR! All three men gave it all they got, but most importantly the coolest man won the match.
JR: King I have no doubt in my mind, that one day CM Punk is going to get a one on one title opportunity against Carlito. But I believe that our colleague Todd Grisham is backstage.
We then go backstage to see Todd Grisham who is standing by Chris Jericho.
Grisham: Chris Jericho tonight you team up with your past enemy John Cena, to face Ken Kennedy and Randy Orton who have Vince McMahon in their corner. The man who was supposed to be in your corner tonight, Shane McMahon was injured this past week on Raw thanks to Randy Orton. So surely that makes you the underdogs in tonight’s match?
Jericho: Hold on Todd Grisass, you think because Shane McMahon got injured this past week on Raw, that John Cena and me are the underdogs in tonight’s match? Well let me tell you this Grisass, THIS IS CHICAGO IS JERICHO!
Crowd Pops
Jericho: And I haven’t come here to let my millions and millions of Jericholics down. And manager or no manager, Chris Jericho is going to enter the ring and give Mr Roboto and Mr Roboto….Roboto a beating that THEY HAVE NEVER….EV
???: EVERRRR FELT IN THEIR LIFES!
Crowd Pops as John Cena walks into the scene.
Cena: CHAIN GANG CHICAGO MAKE SOME NOISE!
Crowd Pops as a sarcastic smile appears on Chris Jericho’s face.
Cena: Because tonight Chris Jericho and me go out there to face the Corporation. And this is Chris Jericho’s first PPV match in over two years, and come to think about it the last time you were in a PPV match I kicked your ass!
Mixed Reaction and there is obvious tension between Cena and Jericho.
Cena: But you don’t need to worry about me Homie, because tonight we are in the same team. But tonight we are not only fighting the Corporation, we are fighting to become the Number 1 Contender for the WWE Title. And unfortunately for you that means you are not going to make a dream comeback, because I have unsettled business with Randy Orton and nobody, is going to get in my way of becoming the WWE Champion. So if you get in my way Chris, I am going to toss you out of my way. If you have a problem with that and want some, THEN COME FREAKIN GET SOME!
John Cena and Chris Jericho then head to head, staring a hole through one another.
Jericho: That’s cute John. But I need to tell you one thing. WOULD YOU PLEASE SHUT THE HELL UP!
Mixed reaction
Jericho: John you come interrupt my interview with your stupid Supercuts hairstyle, your stupid looking face which makes you look like you have had your face flattened by a truck, thinking your some sort of big shot. Well sorry HOMIE, but all I see when I see you is a bonafide Jackass!
Mixed Reaction
Jericho: John there is a reason why you are not the WWE Champion, and that is because you can’t beat Randy Orton.
Crowd Boos
Jericho: So John if I was you, I would get the hell out of here as soon as possible and spend the rest of your life with your Rapper friends. John no longer are we going to have an uninteresting, untalented WWE Champion. Because at Survivor Series, Chris Jericho is going to become the WWE Champion and if you have a problem with that and want some, THEN COME FREAKIN GET SOME!
We then witness an intense stare down between the two men who are supposed to be partners tonight, as we then cut back to ringside.
Kid Kash’s music hits and Kid Kash comes down to the ring to a nice pop from the crowd. He slaps hands with fans down on his way to the ring, as we see a short video clip of Kid Kash getting three successive pinfall victories over Jamie Noble on recent editions of Smackdown.
“Slam Smack” hits and the Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble makes his way down to the ring to some decent heat. He points to Kash, and starts talking some smash to him as he enters the ring.
Cole: And it is time to start the Best Of 7 Series! Kash has got three victories over Noble in recent weeks, but can he make the best start possible to the best of 7 series?
JBL: This man has impressed me hugely over recent weeks, but Jamie Noble performs best when it matters the most.

KID KASH GETS THE FIRST FALL OF THE SERIES
Winner: Kid Kash in 7:37 (Kid Kash leads Jamie Noble 1-0 in the best of 7 series)
Cole: What a way to kick off the best of 7 series, and once again Kid Kash has got the better of Jamie Noble.
JBL: I am shocked Michael I thought Jamie Noble would pick his game up tonight, but once again Kash got the win and Jamie Noble has to pick up his game sooner than later. Or this will be a whitewash victory for Kid Kash.
Cole: Kid Kash needs just three more victories to become the new Cruiserweight Champion.
A new Wrestlemania 24 commercial plays. It is set in Disneyland with the WWE superstars invading, and we see Triple H hitting Donald Duck with a Sledgehammer, Umaga scaring some little kids, Kane setting the castle on fire and much more juicy fun.
We then go backstage to see Matt Hardy speaking with his brother Jeff Hardy backstage.
Jeff Hardy: I tell you man, you need to watch your back tonight man because I have got a feeling MVP has something in plan for tonight…..
???: Yeah I do have a plan.
The crowd boos as MVP walks into the scene.
MVP: And that plan is to go out there with my best friend Matt Hardy and successfully defend our Tag Team Championships.
Jeff Hardy: What was the whole business between you, Burke and Cor Von talking earlier tonight then?
Matt Hardy turns to MVP who looks shocked at Jeff’s comments.
MVP: Hey Matt you ignore your Bro, he is just jealous that we are WWE Tag Team Champions and he can’t even get a match on the Pay Per View. We need to focus on our match tonight, because Burke and Cor Von are tough. Matt you need to step up your game tonight, because I don’t want you letting the team down and leaving me to show why I am half man amazing, and save us from losing our belts. See you out there.
MVP then walks off, as The Hardy Boys look at MVP with suspicion.
We then cut back to ringside as “Slow Chemical” hits and Kane comes out to a big pop from the crowd. Halfway down the ramp Kane is attacked from behind as FINLAY HITS KANE WITH THE SHILLELAGH OVER THE BACK OF KANE’S KNEE!
Match 3
Grudge Match
Finlay v Kane
Finlay after that Shillelagh shot to the knee immediately goes after it, stomping away at it on the ramp as the referee sprints down the ramp and tells Finlay to bring Kane down to the ring. Finlay shoves the referee out of the way however and he grabs Kane by the leg, and lifts it high in the air dropping it on the steel ramp. Finlay then drags Kane to his feet and he finally leads Kane down the ramp towards the ring. Finlay halts just outside the ring as he grabs Kane by the arm and goes to whip him into the Steel Steps, but Kane counters and sends Finlay crashing shoulder first into the Steel Steps! Finlay clutches onto his shoulders as he gets to his feet, and he turns straight into a clothesline by Kane. Kane then drags Finlay to his feet by his attire and he scoops him up, dropping Finlay chest first over the barricade. The action is then finally taken into the ring, as Kane rolls Finlay into the ring and finally the bell is rung to officially start the match.
Finlay gets to his feet and leads Kane to the corner, where he meets Kane with a kick to the leg. Finlay then throws a hard right hand before whipping Kane to the opposite corner and charges up at Kane, who explodes out of the corner damn near taking Finlay’s head off with a clothesline. Kane then leads Finlay to the corner and bounces his head off the turnbuckle, before taking Finlay out of his boots with an uppercut to the jaw. Kane then delivers a kick to the mid section, before taking Finlay up in the air and down onto the mat with another hard uppercut. Kane then rests his boot over the throat of Finlay and starts choking him out, until the referee gets between the two men. Kane then kicks Finlay in the face, before stomping away at him in the corner of the ring. Kane picks Finlay to his feet and attempts an Irish Whip, but Finlay counters only for Kane to come back with a hard shoulder block takedown. Kane then bounces off the ropes and drops an elbow over the back of Finlay’s head. Kane then knocks Finlay’s head off with a Big Boot just as he is about to get to his feet. Kane then stomps away at the back of Finlay’s head before lifting him up to his feet and scooping him up, and slamming him down onto the mat with authority. Kane pounds away at Finlay with a series of hard lefts and rights backing him into the corner of the ring. Kane then whips Finlay into the opposite corner and charges up, but Finlay very smartly goes low dropkicking Kane in the knee causing Kane to crash face first off the turnbuckle. Finlay then bounces off the ropes as Kane gets to his feet, and Finlay comes from behind with a chop block to the knee taking Kane’s down onto his knees. Finlay then clubs away at the neck of Kane before sprinting off the ropes, but Kane quickly recovers and catches him off the ropes with a Big Boot!
Kane whips Finlay into the corner, and he charges up connecting with a Turnbuckle Clothesline. Kane then catches a staggering Finlay with a Sidewalk Slam and he makes the first cover of the match 1…. 2…. Finlay kicks out! Kane then goes to the corner and climbs up top and it looks as though Kane wants to finish this match early. He waits for Finlay to get to his feet and goes for the Diving Clothesline, but Finlay rolls out of the way at the right time and Kane crashes down onto the mat! That high risk move seemed to take a lot out of Kane as he slowly gets to his feet clutching onto his injured knee, and Finlay takes advantage hitting a low kick taking Kane down onto his knees before getting him in a front facelock and connecting with a Snap DDT! Finlay smiles at the damage that has been done to Kane, but fails to see Kane sitting up. Finlay turns around and into a big hand grabbing him by the throat. Kane then fights his way to his feet before tossing Finlay into the corner, and hits him with a fast series of hard lefts and rights to the jaw of Finlay. Kane then whips Finlay off the ropes and catches him off them by lifting Finlay up into a gorilla press position, but Kane’s legs give up on him and he lets go of Finlay and drops down onto the mat. Finlay then grabs Kane by his tights and tosses Kane between the middle and top ropes to the outside.
Finlay then waits for Kane to get to his feet on the outside, before bouncing off the ropes and goes for a Baseball Slide Dropkick, but Kane catches his legs and pulls Finlay to the outside and he pounds away at him with some hard right hands. Kane then takes a few steps back before charging up at Finlay who trips Kane by the legs face first onto the Steel Steps! Kane clutches onto his face in agony as Finlay grabs Kane’s injured knee and he smashes it off the Steel Steps. On a very rare occasion you hear Kane start to yell in agony, and Finlay sees the pain Kane is under so he grabs Kane’s knee and smashes it off the Steel Steps even harder. Finlay then rolls Kane back into the ring and he pulls Kane so his legs are hanging either side of the steel ring post. Finlay breaks the count before grabbing Kane’s injured knee and smashes it off the Steel Ring Post. Finlay then stands on the ring apron and twists Kane’s legs and falls back locking on a FIGURE 4 LEG LOCK TO KANE AROUND THE RING POST! Unfortunately for Finlay, the move is seen as illegal and has to let go of the hold at the count of four. Finlay re-enters the ring and he places Kane’s leg over the bottom rope, and he stands on the middle rope and jumps on Kane’s injured leg. Finlay repeats the move, before dragging Kane to the centre of the ring and goes to lock on a Boston Crab but Kane desperately swings at Finlay with a series of hard right hands. But Finlay throws a kick at the face of Kane, and he then locks on a ONE LEGGED BOSTON CRAB driving the knee into the back of Kane. Kane reaches out for the ropes but he is bang centre in the middle of the ring and there is no escape. The Chicago crowd start chanting Kane’s name trying to urge “The Big Red Machine” on. Kane somehow pushes himself off the mat, and he uses his free leg to kick himself free. Finlay goes to lift Kane to his feet but is met with a big Uppercut to the Jaw, and then Kane gets to his feet and bounces off the ropes. Finlay sees Kane coming and catches Kane with a kick to the gut, and then somehow lifts Kane off the mat with a Gutwrench Suplex dropping Kane into a bridge 1…. 2…. Kane gets his shoulder off the mat at two!
Finlay argues with the referee, before lifting Kane to his feet and he starts pounding away at him into the corner of the ring with some big forearm shots to the face. Finlay then steps up onto the middle rope and he continues to pound away at Kane with hard right hands until Kane grabs him by the tights and pulls Finlay onto his shoulders. KANE THEN WALKS FINLAY INTO THE CENTRE OF THE RING AND DROPS HIM WITH A BIG FALLING POWERBOMB! But due to his knee injury Kane cannot capitalise and make the cover, and both men are down on the floor and the referee starts the count. Both men reach their feet at the count of six, and they meet each other in the centre of the ring with some hard right hands and the two rivals get into a fistfight. The bigger tougher Kane looks to get the advantage, when in desperate fashion Finlay rakes the eyes of Kane and hits him with an uppercut backing him into the corner. Finlay then whips Kane into the opposite corner and charges up, but Kane moves out of the way and Finlay crashes into the turnbuckle and staggers around into a Big Boot by the Big Red Machine. Kane then bounces off the ropes and takes Finlay down with a clothesline. Kane then throws a kick at Finlay who catches Kane’s legs. Finlay shakes his head at Kane, but Kane’s shows off some impressive athleticism for a man of his size hitting an impressive Enzuigiri to the back of Finlay’s head taking him back into the corner of the ring! Finlay shakes himself off before charging up at Kane who catches him with a Tilt a Whirl Backbreaker! Kane however keeps Finlay resting over his knee, before lifting him to his feet and up onto the shoulders. Kane walks to the corner of the ring, and connects with a Running Powerslam. Kane shakes off his knee still in a bit of pain, before hooking the leg 1…. 2…. Kickout by Finlay!
Kane shakes his head in disappointment as he gets to his feet, and he then raises his hand in the air and wriggles his fingers signalling for the end. Finlay gets to his feet and Kane grabs him by the throat, but Kane sees that Little Bastard Hornswoggle climbing up onto the top rope. Kane pushes Finlay aside as Hornswoggle goes for a Diving Crossbody Block on Kane, who catches Hornswoggle in mid air. Kane turns Hornswoggle upside down in the air setting him up for the Tombstone Piledriver! But Finlay saves his little friend at the last moment hitting a Chop Block to the back of Kane’s knees taking him down onto the mat. Hornswoggle then distracts the referee, as Finlay quickly escapes the ring and grabs hold of a second Shillelagh. Finlay then brings it into the ring and sizes Kane up, AND SMASHES KANE OVER THE HEAD WITH THE SHILLELAGH! Finlay instead of going for the cover, he decides to end the match by Submission as he locks on a Modified Indian Death Lock! Finlay smiles as Kane is out of it after that Shillelagh shot to the skull. The referee sees that Kane is beginning to fade away and he lifts his arm up in the air once…and it drops…. He lifts it up a second time…. and it drops…. He lifts it up a third time…. But Kane sits up!
Finlay looks on in bewilderment as Kane grabs Finlay by the throat and gets to his feet. Kane looks to go for the Chokeslam, but once again Hornswoggle gets involved as he distracts the referee. Kane once again pushes Finlay aside and goes after Hornswoggle who quickly drops to the outside as Kane goes to attack him. Kane then turns around into Finlay who scoops Kane up and connects with a Rolling Fireman’s Carry Slam. Finlay then signals to Hornswoggle to climb to the top rope as Finlay now distracts the referee. Hornswoggle climbs to the top rope, AND COMES OFF THE ROPES WITH A TADPOLE SPLASH ONTO KANE! BUT KANE HAS GRABBED HORNSWOGGLE BY THE THROAT! Kane no sells the Tadpole Splash and gets to his feet with his hand around Hornswoggle’s throat. Finlay rushes up to help Hornswoggle but Kane also grabs him by the throat. KANE THEN LIFTS BOTH HORNSWOGGLE AND FINLAY IN THE AIR, AND CONNECTS WITH A DOUBLE CHOKESLAM!! Kane then does the cutthroat signal before lifting Finlay in the air and twisting him upside down. KANE THEN DROPS FINLAY WITH THE TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER! Kane then hooks the leg and the crowd count along with the referee

Winner: Kane in 9:57
Cole: KANE! Picks up the hard fought victory.
JBL: What a fight that was, and you have to give credit to Kane. He came out here with an injured leg, and still was able to beat the toughest bastard in the WWE.
Cole: Finlay has worked over that leg ever since Unforgiven, but after a valiant effort he still couldn’t get the job done. A huge victory for Kane, but can his brother be victorious later tonight. Earlier tonight on Sunday Night Heat, Josh Matthews met Batista when he entered the arena and when Josh asked Batista about his changed attitude. Batista went back
We then see the clip from Sunday Night Heat with Batista tossing Josh Matthews into the wall, after Josh asked Batista about his changed attitude. We then go to backstage live, where we see Batista warming up for his match with The Undertaker tonight.

Cole: For the last two months MVP has used the Tag Team Championships to avoid a match with Matt Hardy….
JBL: Hey hang on a second Michael; MVP is better than Matt Hardy he proved that at the Great American Bash. They are Tag Team Champions, because Matt Hardy needs MVP. Jeff Hardy is on his over on Raw and look at him he is a lunatic.
Cole: How?
JBL: He’s got Purple hair for one. Matt Hardy wouldn’t be worth a damn dime, if it weren’t for MVP.
“Don’t waste my time” hits and The New Breed consisting of Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von come out to some big heat from the crowd. Elijah Burke throws his towel in the air, as Cor Von thumps his chest showing off his intensity.
Cole: Ever since they have came to Smackdown, The New Breed have been impressive and this is their best chance of winning their first WWE gold.
JBL: Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von are tough as hell, Elijah Burke won 98 out of 99 matches when he was an amateur boxer, and Marcus Cor Von played for the Buffalo Bills in the Superbowl. Matt Hardy and MVP are going to have their hands full in this one.

NEW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS
Winners: NEW Tag Team Champions Elijah Burke and Marcus Cor Von in 12:03
After the match Elijah Burke and Cor Von leave the ring going straight after their Tag Team Championships, and they share a hug before raising their newly won title belts. MVP enters the ring and looks down at Matt Hardy in disgust. MVP shakes his head and leaves the ring still intact with his United States Championship.
Cole: We’ve got new Tag Team Champions! Burke and Cor Von took advantage of MVP’s mistake and the New Breed are the new WWE Tag Team Champions.
JBL: After MVP’s mistake Michael? Matt Hardy lost the match he got in MVP’s way and he only has himself to blame, and if I were MVP I would go back in the ring teach Matt Hardy a lesson for costing the team the Tag Team Championships.
Cole: MVP hit Matt Hardy over the back of the head with the title belt. What intention did MVP have for using it anyway, he would of got disqualified!
JBL: Oh there you go again Michael. Blaming MVP for this loss. Like it or not Michael your bed buddy Matt Hardy made a mistake, and because of him he and MVP are no longer Tag Team Champions.
We then go backstage to see Todd Grisham, standing backstage with a mic in hand.
Grisham: Ladies and Gentleman may I introduce at this time, “The Game” Triple H!
Triple H then walk into the scene with a big smile on his face.
Grisham: In just a few moments time, you go one on one with the Samoan Bulldozer Umaga. I would just like to know your comments on this upcoming match.
Triple H: Todd Grisham my comments are as simple as this. Umaga, ever since you have came to the WWE you have ran over everybody and everything in your path. You have beaten every single man that you have faced. From John Cena, to Shawn Michaels, to Ric Flair you have beaten them all. But with all credit to everyone else, they are not Triple H.
Crowd Pops
Triple: They are not in the same level of Triple H. And just like you I have beaten every single man that has been put in my path. And tonight Umaga I am going to stop the Bulldozer on its tracks.
Crowd Pops
Triple H: I am going to bring the Game to Umaga, and PROVE TO EVERY DAMN PERSON IN THIS ARENA OR WATCHING AT HOME, WHY I AM THAT DAMN GOOD!
Huge Pops for Triple H, who is now breathing very heavily in an intense manner. Then we hear “Time to play the game” hit over the speakers.
Triple: Umaga, Game Over!
Triple H then walks out of the scene, and then a few seconds later Triple H appears at the top of the ramp to a huge pop from the crowd. Triple H makes his traditional entrance to the ring, stepping up onto the ring apron and spitting water onto the Chicago fans. Triple H then salutes the crowd at each corner, before awaiting his opponent.
JR: What an ovation for the Game, and you saw the intensity backstage but King, this man is about to step into war.
King: JR I am still not sure he has recovered from that attack on Raw after his Steel Cage Match, where Umaga hit the Samoan Splash off the top of the cage onto the ribs of Triple H. Triple H is going to have to pull off a miracle if he wants to get the victory here tonight.
“Samoan Bulldozer” hits and Umaga comes down to the ring accompanied by his manager Armando Alejandro Estrada to the biggest heat of the night so far. Umaga walks very quickly to the ring shouting out at Triple H in Samoan as Estrada orders instructions to his Samoan Bulldozer.
Match 5

Umaga slaps his chest daring Triple H to attempt it again. Triple H does so, and again it does not move the Samoan. Triple H bounces off the ropes again and hits Umaga with as hard as a clothesline as you can get, but it only rocks Umaga a little. Triple H starts to look pissed as he bounces off the ropes, and this time he comes with a Chop Block to the front of Umaga’s knee. Triple H then bounces behind Umaga and hits another Chop Block to the back of Umaga’s knees, taking Umaga down to his knees. Triple H then bounces off the ropes and takes Umaga down fully on the mat, with a low running Knee Smash to the face of Umaga. He then bounces off the ropes and drops a knee over the throat of Umaga and makes the cover 1…. 2.Umaga kicks out! Triple H then lifts Umaga up into a seated position, and locks on a rear chinlock. Umaga uses his size and strength to quickly power out of the move, as he gets to his feet and rams Triple H spine first into the turnbuckle. Umaga then staggers out of the corner before charging up at Triple H, who catches Umaga with a drop toe hold causing Umaga to crash face first off the turnbuckle. Umaga then staggers around into Triple H who kicks him in the mid section and hooks him by the arms, setting him up for the Pedigree. But Umaga realises the predicament he is in and counters it into a Back Body Drop to the relief of Armando Alejandro Estrada. Triple H then gets to his feet and is met with a big SAMOAN DROP by the Samoan Bulldozer!
Umaga then drops down to make the cover 1…. 2…. Triple H gets his shoulder up just before the count of 3. Umaga looks on in anger at the referee, before lifting Triple H up to a seated position and clubs away with heavy forearm blows to the head of Triple H. Umaga then grabs Triple H by the throat and lifts him to his feet and tosses him into the corner, and starts unleashing on Triple H with some stinging chops. Umaga then drives his shoulder into the sternum of Triple H, before whipping him into the opposite corner. Umaga then shouts “Samoa” before sprinting up and hitting a corner body splash to Triple H. Umaga then scoops Triple H up and places him in the Tree of Woe Position, before backing off to the opposite corner of the ring. Umaga then sprints up and delivers a Running Headbutt Drop onto Triple H’s head! Umaga then lifts Triple H from the Tree of Woe position onto his shoulders, and delivers a backbreaking Running Powerslam onto The Game! Umaga then drags Triple H over to the corner of the ring and climbs up onto the top rope. Umaga looks down at Triple H on the ground, before coming off with a Samoan Splash onto Triple H driving 300 pounds onto Triple H’s chest! Umaga then makes the cover by putting both of his hands on Triple H’s chest 1…. 2…. Triple H somehow kicks out!
Umaga then lifts Triple H up to his feet, but is quickly distracted by his manager Armando Alejandro Estrada who tells Umaga to finish Triple H off. Umaga obliges his orders as he grabs Triple H by the throat and lifts his thumb in the air, signalling for the Samoan Spike. But for the second time in the match Triple H ducks the Samoan Spike, and he fights back at Umaga with a series of hard right hands which rock Umaga back against the ropes. Triple H then attempts an Irish Whip on Umaga who counters, and catches Triple H with a Swinging Side Slam! Umaga once again makes the cover 1…. 2…. Triple H kicks out once again! Umaga shouts at the referee, and despite the referee not understanding a word he is saying he realises that Umaga is angry that he didn’t get the three count there. Umaga then furiously lifts Triple H to his feet and whips him off the ropes, and catches him off the ropes by hoisting him up and locking on a bear hug onto Triple H! The crowd clap their hands and stamp their feet on the floor cheering the Game on, who reaches out to his side and tries to reach out for the ropes but is too far away. Triple H seems to be fading away and the referee realises and he approaches Triple H and asks him if he wants to quit but gets no answer. He lifts up his hand once…And it drops…He lifts it up a second time…And it drops…He lifts it up a third time…But Triple H keeps it in the air! Triple H then starts fighting back at Umaga hitting him with multiple hard right hands to the face of the Bulldozer. Triple H then goes to whip Umaga off the ropes, but Umaga counters and awaits Triple H who holds onto the ropes not letting himself bounce back into an Umaga attack. Umaga then charges up at Triple H, who ducks down and holds onto the top rope causing Umaga to tumble and fall over the top rope to the outside.
Triple H realises this is the time when he can get back into the match, and he goes straight after Umaga on the outside stomping away at the Monster. Triple H then drags Umaga to his feet and whips him head on into the Steel Ring Post taking Umaga down! Triple H then continues to go for the attack, when Armando Alejandro Estrada clubs Triple H in the back. Triple H then turns around with a devilish look in his eyes, as Armando pleads for forgiveness. Triple H then starts to walk after Armando who walks backwards very quickly trying to get away from the Game tripping over a wire. Triple H looks as though he has stopped his pursuit when he pulls up the ring apron, and HE PULLS OUT A SLEDGEHAMMER! Triple H then starts to chase Armando around the ring with a Sledgehammer in hand. Armando leads Triple H into the ring, and Triple H corners him in the corner of the ring and it looks as though Armando is trapped. Triple H swings the Sledgehammer, but the referee takes the Sledgehammer off Triple H and places it on the edge of the ring apron. Triple H then starts to argue with the ref, as Estrada leaves the ring as Umaga gets into the ring. Triple H then turns around into Umaga who shows off some impressive strength lifting Triple H in the air above his head, before dropping him onto his shoulders and connecting with the Samoan Drop for the second time in the match! Umaga then drags Triple H by the arm and places him in the corner of the ring against the turnbuckle. Umaga then walks to the opposite corner of the ring, before charging up at Triple H with full pace and connects with the SAMOAN WRECKING BALL ON TRIPLE H! Umaga then makes the cover as Armando starts celebrating believing he has already got the victory

KICKOUT BY TRIPLE H!
Armando Estrada looks on in the ring in disbelief, as Umaga starts shouting in Samoan showing his frustration. Umaga then mounts ontop of Triple H, and starts pounding away at him with a flurry of hard lefts and rights. Umaga then lifts Triple H to his feet and scoops him up, slamming him down onto the mat with ease. Umaga then climbs up onto the top rope once again. Umaga goes for the Diving Headbutt, but Triple H moves out of the way! The referee then starts counting as both men are down on the mat. Both men start to make some movement at the count of 5, and get to their feet by the count of 8. Umaga and Triple H then slug it out in a fistfight, with Triple H somehow getting the better of Umaga despite all the punishment he has received. Triple H then whips Umaga off the ropes, and catches Umaga with an ARN ANDERSON-ESQUE SPINEBUSTER! The crowd then erupts and stand on their feet as they sense the end as Triple H does his traditional taunt, which signals for the Pedigree.
Triple H then sets Umaga up kicking him in the mid section and hooking the arms. Armando looks on in shock on the outside as TRIPLE H CONNECTS WITH THE PEDIGREE ON UMAGA! Triple H then goes to make the cover when Armando Alejandro Estrada distracts the referee! Triple H goes to confront Estrada who very sneakily kicks the Sledgehammer, which was on the ring apron into the path of Umaga. Triple H turns around to see Umaga making some movement, so he goes after him as Armando continues to distract the referee. Triple H grabs Umaga by the hair and goes to lift him to his feet when UMAGA SWINGS THE SLEDGEHAMMER OFF THE SKULL OF TRIPLE H!! Armando who is still arguing with the ref takes a Cuban Cigar out of his mouth and snaps it, as Umaga gets to his feet AND DROPS THE SLEDGEHAMMER OVER THE THROAT OF TRIPLE H!! Umaga then slides the Hammer out of the ring as Armando gets off the apron looking very pleased. The referee then turns around to see a bloody Triple H who is clearly knocked out, and he looks at Umaga in a very questionable manner. Umaga drags Triple H’s lifeless body to his feet AND CONNECTS WITH THE SAMOAN SPIKE!! Umaga then drops ontop of the Game and makes the pinfall

Winner: Umaga in 11:58
JR: UMAGA HAS STOLEN THE VICTORY THANKS TO THAT DAMN SLEDGEHAMMER!
King: Stole? JR, I have never seen any man dominate Triple H like Umaga did tonight. Triple H brought the Sledgehammer into the ring, so he brought it on himself.
JR: How could yo…..Oh god he’s not finished yet!
After the match Umaga continues his attack as he lifts Triple H up to his feet and hits him with multiple Samoan Spikes to the throat. Umaga then places him in the corner, and connects with a Samoan Wrecking Ball snapping Triple H’s neck over the bottom rope. Meanwhile Armando Alejandro Estrada on the outside retakes the Sledgehammer and he brings it into the ring. Umaga drags Triple H to his feet and takes the Sledgehammer off Estrada who holds Triple H back. Umaga then damn near knocks Triple H’s head off with the Sledgehammer, knocking the bloody Triple H out. Umaga then storms to the outside and pushes Justin Roberts out of his chair, and brings the Chair into the ring. Umaga then places the chair over the throat of Triple H and climbs to the top rope. Umaga looks to jump onto the Chair on Triple H’s throat, when two referees grab Triple H by the legs and pull him out just in time. Umaga looks to go after Triple H, only for Estrada to now block him off realising that Umaga has done enough damage. Estrada then raises Umaga’s hand in the air in the ring, as medics come down with stretchers to help Triple H.
As Triple H is helped onto the stretcher we go backstage to see Kristal Marshall standing by the World Heavyweight Champion Edge who is watching a Monitor.
Edge: (Laughing) Kristal did you just see that? Umaga just ended Triple H’s career and do you know what I couldn’t be happier. Triple H’s time has come and past, if you want to see Triple H set your time machine to the year 2000. But I would advise you that if you want to see something new and fresh, stay right where you are because this is the era of the Rated R Superstar!
Crowd Boos
Edge: And it’s funny because my match with Rey Mysterio, links to the match we have just saw. Because you just saw Triple H’s career crumble and fall in the blink of an eye, and that is exactly what is going to happen to Rey Mysterio tonight!
Crowd Boos
Edge: But the only difference is that the beating I am going to give to that Nacho eating Spiderman wannabe is going to be much worse than what Umaga did to Triple H. And that’s because Rey Mysterio quite simply cannot reach my height (Laughs), in size or wrestling ability. And tonight when Rey Mysterio goes for a triple springboard 820 Tadpole Splash and breaks his knee in half. I am going to make sure that I CRIPPLE Rey Mysterio. And I am going to make sure that not only does he never wrestle again, but also he never walks again!
Edge stares into the camera intensely, as the crowd give huge heat for Edge’s comments.
Edge: And Kristal I am going to prove world why this is the era of the Rated R Superstar, but also why I am the greatest World Heavyweight Champion of all time!
Crowd Boos
Edge: And you can Bank on that!
Crowd Boos as Edge laughs once again.
Kristal: Ok, and Edge may I get some comments on the Hell In A Cell match between Batista and The Undertaker, where the winner faces the World Champion at Survivor Series.
Edge: You want my comments? Well Kristal, Batista and The Undertaker are going to tear each other apart tonight, so whoever faces me will only be at 50% anyway. I have beaten Batista more times that you have had a shower in the last year, and I beat The Undertaker to win this baby in just 3 seconds. So it doesn’t matter who wins because it will make no difference, because no matter how good they are. They will never be as good as me!
Edge then walks off as we go to another area backstage where we see Triple H being stretchered into an ambulance as he is choking up blood. But from out of nowhere comes Umaga who attacks the medics throwing them into nearby vehicles, before grabbing hold of the stretcher that has Triple H on it. He pulls it out of the ambulance, and he pushes the Stretcher into the side of the Ambulance, causing Triple H to fly off the stretcher and face first into the ambulance. Umaga then picks Triple H up to his feet by his hair and he repeatedly hits him with more Samoan Spikes! Referee’s and Road Agents try to make the save, but Umaga pushes them aside before lifting Triple H back to his feet. UMAGA THEN THROWS TRIPLE H HEAD FIRST THROUGH THE AMBULANCE WINDOW! The referee’s and road agents then finally pull Umaga away, as a bloody and unconscious Triple H is left in a pool of his own blood.
JR: My God the carnage that Umaga has done to Triple H. Umaga won the match; there was no need for that brutal and devastating attack just when Triple H was going to be sent to the nearest hospital.
King: JR I agree with you, I think Umaga took it a little bit too far and it’s going to be a long time before we see Triple H on Raw in my opinion.
JR: Well we will update you on Triple H’s conditions when we get information, but let’s send it over to Michael Cole and JBL.
Cole: I agree with you JR, that was a disgusting and brutal attack by Umaga. But ladies and gentleman it is time to move on, as the World Heavyweight Championship is now on the line. Rey Mysterio has failed to take the World Heavyweight Championship from Edge on two different occasions, but can Mysterio strike third time lucky?
JBL: I don’t think so Michael. But no one thought that he would become the World Heavyweight Champion at Wrestlemania 22, and Rey Mysterio proved his critics wrong. Can he do it again tonight?
“Booyaka 619” hits and Rey Mysterio comes out to a thunderous pop from the Chicago Crowd. He pops out of the floor and raises his arm in the air, before making his way down to the ring slapping hands with fans at ringside. Mysterio looks down the ramp, looking more focused than he has even been in his career.
“Metalingus” hits and the World Heavyweight Champion Edge comes out to the biggest heat of the evening. He steps through the smoke and raises his title in the air setting off some pyros. Edge makes his way down to the ring looking as cocky as ever, chewing some gun and giving out a very confident cocky smile as he enters the ring.
Match 6
World Heavyweight Championship
Edge © v Rey Mysterio
The referee calls for the bell, as Rey Mysterio who is standing on the ring apron locks eyes with Edge. Edge looks to the side before suddenly charging up at Rey Mysterio trying to catch him by surprise, but Mysterio reacts quickly and drives his shoulder into the sternum of Edge who staggers back into the centre of the ring. Mysterio goes for a springboard seated senton splash, but Edge moves out of the way and bounces off the ropes as Mysterio lands on his feet. Mysterio slides between Edge’s legs and he then runs to the ropes and goes for a springboard moonsault onto a standing Edge, who once again moves out of the way as Mysterio lands on his feet. Edge meets Mysterio with a kick to the mid section and sends him off the ropes, Edge goes for a clothesline but Mysterio ducks and comes back off the ropes with a Tilt a Whirl Headscissors!

Rey then pounds away at Edge into the corner with a series of hard lefts and rights, but his attempt for an Irish Whip is countered by Edge who sends Mysterio into the opposite corner. Mysterio then staggers back into Edge who goes for a German Suplex, only for Mysterio to counter it into a roll up from a bodyscissors position 1….2….Kickout by Edge!
Edge gets to his feet first and meets Mysterio with a kick to the gut, and whips him against the ropes. Edge ducks down too early however, and Mysterio goes for a sunset flip but Edge stands his ground. Edge then throws his fist at Mysterio who moves out of the way and Edge punches the mat. Edge shakes his fist in agony, as Mysterio speeds off the ropes and comes back with a Spinning Wheel Kick to the jaw of Edge! Mysterio then hooks the near leg 1….2….Edge kicks out! Rey then goes to lift Edge to his feet, but Edge trips him up and goes straight after the knee of Mysterio which caused him to miss most of this year through injury, but Mysterio in desperate fashion kicks Edge in the face, and Edge falls over the bottom rope in position for the 619! Mysterio speeds off the ropes and goes for the 619, but Edge moves out of the way and leaves the ring to take a breather, which gains huge heat from the crowd. Edge shows his cockiness pointing to his head, telling Chicago that he used his brain to get out of that one. But you don’t turn your back on Rey Mysterio, who hits a modified 619 to Edge on the outside kicking him square in the face taking the Champ down! Mysterio then bounces off the ropes as Edge gets to his feet, but the referee gets in the way and tells Rey to stay in the ring, which gains some more huge heat. Rey looks angry with this, as the referee bends through the middle and top rope and asks Edge if he is ok. Mysterio ignores the referee’s instructions as he speeds off the ropes and hits a SOMERSAULT SEATED SENTON OVER THE REFEREE, OVER THE TOP ROPE AND ONTO EDGE ON THE OUTSIDE!
The crowd gives Rey a big pop for that highflying move, as Mysterio drags Edge to his feet and rolls him back into the ring. Rey climbs onto the ring apron, and he connects with a springboard leg drop, Droppin the Dime over the back of Edge’s neck. Mysterio then rolls Edge onto his back and makes the cover 1….2….Another Kickout by Edge! Rey Mysterio then lifts Edge to his feet only to be met with a kick to the formerly injured knee by Edge.

Edge takes a quick breather before dropping down to make the cover 1….2….and Mysterio kicks out! Edge drags Mysterio to his feet and scoops him up with ease, and drops Rey back first off his knee connecting with a backbreaker. Edge drops down to make the cover 1….2….Mysterio kicks out again! Edge drags Rey back to his feet and hooks Mysterio’s arm over his head, and drops Mysterio with a snap suplex! Instead of making the cover though Edge gets to his feet and starts trash talking the Chicago Crowd, gaining some big heat from the crowd. Edge then finally makes the cover 1….2….Mysterio kicks out for the third time in quick succession! Edge then viscously stomps away at Mysterio, first his face and then targeting his troubled knee. Edge then drags Rey to his feet and pounds away at him against the ropes, before whipping him off the opposite side of the ropes. Edge ducks down too early however, allowing Rey to come back with a kick square to the face of the Champion. Mysterio then speeds off the ropes and comes back looking for a bulldog out of a bodyscissors position onto the Champion, whom perfectly counters the move with a WHEELBARROW GERMAN SUPLEX! Edge smiles to himself happy at that counter, before once again hooking the legs 1….2….Mysterio kicks out!
Edge shouts at the referee to count quicker, before going to pick up Rey Mysterio who out of nowhere grabs Edge by the head and rolls him over 1…..2….Edge kicks out! Both men then get to their feet and Edge takes out Mysterio with a big clothesline, nearly taking him inside out. Edge hooks the legs once more 1….2….Rey kicks out! Mysterio gets to his feet and staggers back into the corner, and is met with multiple hard right hands to the jaw by the Rated R Superstar. Edge then backs away from Rey Mysterio and once again takes time to interact with the crowd, shouting how their favourite Superstar looks now. Edge then goes to hit Rey with another hard right hand, but this time Rey ducks and then fires away at Edge with a quick flurry of hard right hands. Rey Mysterio then goes to whip Edge into the opposite corner, but Edge counters only for Rey to jump onto the middle rope and leap himself backwards so his legs are resting ontop of Edge’s shoulders as he holds himself up on the top rope. Rey Mysterio goes to take down Edge with a Headscissors takeover, but Edge grabs hold of Mysterio in mid air and connects with a Sidewalk Slam! Edge once again makes the cover but is too cocky, and doesn’t hook the legs 1….2….Mysterio once again shows his resiliency. Edge starts to show a bit of anger, as he can’t put Mysterio away. Edge shows this as he drags Rey Mysterio to his feet and takes him down with a HARD right hand, which hurts himself in the process. Edge then repeats this process as he lifts Rey up, and takes him down with another hard right hand. Edge then shouts some abuse at the crowd once more, as he lifts Rey to his feet for the third time.

Mysterio then pounds away at Edge against the ropes, and then goes to whip him off the opposite side of the ropes but Edge counters. Edge goes to catch Rey with a clothesline, but Rey ducks and then comes back off the ropes leapfrogging over a ducking Edge before sprinting off the ropes once more. This time Mysterio slides between Edge’s legs and Dropkicks him in the back, sending him to the ropes. Rey then charges up at Edge who catches Mysterio with a flapjack, with Mysterio landing throat first on the top rope! Mysterio holds onto his throat struggling for breath, as Edge bounces off the other side of the ropes and comes back looking to Clothesline Mysterio to the outside, but Mysterio ducks down and holds onto the top rope sending Edge over the top rope to the outside!
The referee starts counting Edge out on the outside, as Rey Mysterio uses this useful time to recover from the punishment he has received. Rey Mysterio gets to his feet just as Edge climbs up onto the ring apron and puts one foot in the ring breaking the count. But before he can climb fully through the ropes, Mysterio hits him with a hard right hand. Mysterio then backs off a few paces, before dropkicking Edge in the knees causing Edge to fall face first onto the ring apron and fall onto the concrete floor on the outside. Rey Mysterio then waits for Edge to get to his feet on the outside, before grabbing hold of the top rope and MYSTERIO CATAPULTS HIMSELF OVER THE TOP ROPE, BUT EDGE MOVES OUT OF THE WAY AND MYSTERIO CRASHES AND BURNS ON THE CONCRETE FLOOR! Mysterio screams in pain and immediately clutches onto his injured knee, as it is obvious that Mysterio has rehurt his knee which was the reason he has been out for many months this year. Edge sees this and a sick, almost psychotic smile appears on his face, and he goes straight for the knee pulling Rey Mysterio over to the Steel Steps. Edge then lifts Rey’s leg up high, and he slams him against the Steel Steps knee first. Rey Mysterio clutches onto his knee in agony, as Edge lifts his leg up high again and slams it even harder against the Steel Steps. Edge then enters the ring and immediately leaves it breaking the count. Edge then waits for Mysterio to get to his feet, before coming from behind with a vicious chop block nearly taking his leg off. Edge then pushes the Steel Steps off it’s base and he places Mysterio’s injured knee on the base of the Steel Steps against the steel ring post. Edge then takes a few steps back, before charging up and hits a low dropkick, sandwiching Mysterio’s injured knee between Boot and Step!
Edge then finally rolls Mysterio back into the ring, and he continues his work on the knee stomping away at it. Edge then pulls Mysterio’s leg over the bottom rope, and he drops a stomp on the knee of Rey Mysterio from the second rope. Edge then pulls Mysterio over to the corner and rolls back to the outside, and pulls Mysterio’s legs either side of the steel ring post. Mysterio then grabs hold of Rey Mysterio’s leg, and he slams the injured knee against the steel ring post! Edge sees the pain this does to Rey Mysterio, and he decides to do it again. As he pulls the leg out wide, and slams it even harder against the steel ring post. Edge then gets back into the ring and pulls Mysterio into the centre of the ring, grabbing his legs and flipping over into a bridge 1….2….Mysterio kicks out. Edge looks slightly shocked at the referee, but keeps calm and goes back after Mysterio’s knee. Edge stomps away at it some more, before getting Mysterio locked into a One Legged Boston Crab, and he puts pressure on the neck of Mysterio as he locks it in driving his knee into the back of Rey Mysterio’s head. Rey Mysterio yells out in pain as Edge tries to tear Rey Mysterio’s leg out of its socket. Rey Mysterio cannot move himself to the ropes, and he yells out in agony as he tries all he can to not tap out. Mysterio somehow twists out of the move onto his back breaking the hold, and he then grabs Edge by the hair and rolls him over 1….2….Edge kicks out. Both men then reach their feet and Edge takes Mysterio’s head off with a clothesline! Edge then grabs Rey Mysterio’s leg and pulls off the kneepad from Rey Mysterio’s leg. Edge then targets the knee again and drops a hard elbow over the knee of Mysterio. Edge then bounces off the ropes and drops a high knee drop over the knee of Rey Mysterio. Edge then once again looks to end the match via submission, as this time he locks on a FIGURE 4 LEG LOCK ONTO THE CHALLENGER! Rey Mysterio tries to reach for the ropes, but Edge pulls Mysterio into the centre of the ring. Edge sits up and shouts at Mysterio to tap out, to which Mysterio attempts to hit him with a hard right hand which Edge ducks. Mysterio’s shoulders drop to the mat and the referee makes the count 1….2….Mysterio sits up just in time! Rey Mysterio then shows some heart as he begins to counter the Figure 4 into one of his own turning onto his stomach and locking Edge in the Figure 4 Leg Lock! Edge yells in agony, but he has more energy and strength and is able to reach the ropes.
Both men then slowly get to their feet, and Mysterio somehow starts to fight on against Edge using his healthy leg to kick Edge in the back of the knees. Mysterio then bounces off the ropes, but Edge ducks down and hoists Mysterio onto his shoulders and connects with a sit out electric chair drop! Edge then turns Mysterio onto his back and goes to lock on the Edgecator, but Mysterio once again grabs Edge by the head and rolls him over 1….2….Edge kicks out! Edge rushes to his feet and goes to take Mysterio down with a clothesline, but Mysterio ducks and bounces off the ropes. Mysterio comes back looking for a clothesline, but Edge ducks and gets Mysterio in a Half Nelson, connecting with a Half Nelson Sitout Facebuster! Edge makes the cover 1….2….Mysterio gets his Shoulder up just in time! Edge drags Mysterio to his feet and he proceeds to pound away at him into the corner of the ring, before lifting him up onto the top rope. Edge then climbs onto the second rope and he clubs away at Mysterio’s back before grabbing his arms setting him up for a Crucifix Powerbomb. BUT MYSTERIO COUNTERS THE TOP ROPE CRUCIFIX POWERBOMB INTO A HURRICARANA OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE!
The crowd gives Mysterio a huge pop for that big time move, as both men are down and out on the mat and the referee starts counting to ten. Both men reach their feet at the count of 6, and immediately Edge takes it to Mysterio with a series of right hands to the Jaw. Edge then whips Mysterio off the ropes, and Mysterio comes back with a Wheelbarrow into a Bulldog on the Champion! Mysterio then springboards off the ropes and takes down the Champion with a crossbody takedown! Mysterio then hits a leaping enzuigiri to the side of Edge’s head, which takes him back into the corner of the ring. Mysterio then charges up at Edge, who smartly sidesteps out of the way and throws Mysterio shoulder first into the steel ring post! Edge then bounces off the ropes and goes for the Spear, but Mysterio counters it into a Tornado DDT! The crowd then pops as Rey Mysterio slowly makes his way to the corner and up onto the top rope. Mysterio then comes off the top rope with the FROG SPLASH ONTO EDGE! Mysterio clutches onto his injured knee still in a bit of pain, before crawling ontop of Edge and hooking the leg

Mysterio puts his heads in his hands, realising he was so close to becoming a two-time World Heavyweight Champion. Mysterio lifts Edge to his feet and pounds away at him against the ropes.

NO MYSTERIO PUTS HIS FOOT ON THE BOTTOM ROPE!
The Chicago crowd erupt with a huge pop for Rey Mysterio, as Edge looks on almost in tears not knowing how he didn’t pick up the victory after the Spear. Edge then hastily picks up Rey Mysterio and gets him in a front facelock, and HITS THE EDGECUTION! Edge shouts at the referee to count to three before dropping down to make the cover

MYSTERIO GETS HIS SHOULDER UP JUST BEFORE THE COUNT OF 3!
Edge gets to his feet and immediately grabs the referee by the shirt and starts shouting at him, telling him that was a three count. Edge then using his hands signals he has had enough and he gets out of the ring and starts making his way down the ramp. But at the count of 6 he realises that he has control of Mysterio here, and if he loses via count out Mysterio will most likely get another title shot. So he charges back down to the ring, getting in at the count of 9 and he starts pounding away at Mysterio into the corner of the ring with some closed right fists. The referee has a go at Edge about this, but Edge shoves him out of the way. Edge then goes to climb up onto the top rope, when Mysterio kicks Edge in the face showing some resiliency. Mysterio then places Edge’s head under his legs, AND CONNECTS WITH A SUNSET FLIP POWERBOMB OFF THE TOP ROPE! Rey Mysterio once again clutches onto his knee, and he wastes some time crawling back over to Edge and making the cover

EDGE GETS HIS SHOULDER OFF THE MAT!
A big “oohh” is heard from the crowd as they were certain that Edge had the match lost there. Mysterio puts his head in his hands thinking what he has to do to win this match. Rey Mysterio slowly gets to his feet at the count of 7, and he lifts Edge up to the mat and places him in a front face headlock. Edge fights back at Mysterio by hitting many elbow shots to the ribs of Mysterio, before kicking Mysterio in the gut. Edge then again sets up Mysterio for the Edgecution, but this time Mysterio spins out of it and goes for a clothesline but Edge ducks and drops him with the Edge-O-Matic!

The Chicago Crowd stands aloft, as Mysterio shouts out “619” before speeding off the ropes. Mysterio charges up to Edge AND CONNECTS WITH THE 619! Mysterio then raises his arm in the air as Edge gets to his feet, AND HE GOES FOR THE WEST COAST POP………BUT EDGE COUNTERS IT INTO A POWERBOMB AND HE LOCKS ON THE EDGECATOR ONTO MYSTERIO! Mysterio yells out loud in agony, as Edge pulls back on the move applying more pressure and pain onto Rey Mysterio’s injured knee. Rey Mysterio however starts to crawl to the ropes and he is about a fingertip away, when Edge pulls him back into the centre of the ring. Mysterio does all he can to get out of the move, as Edge yells at Mysterio urging him to tap out. AND MYSTERIO CAN’T TAKE THE PAIN ANYMORE AND HE TAPS OUT!!
Winner: STILL World Heavyweight Champion Edge in 17:34
Cole: EDGE RETAINS THE TITLE! You have got to give credit to Rey Mysterio he put on a hell of a effort, but he was in too much pain and had no other choice than to tap out.
JBL: I don’t need to give any credit to Rey Mysterio. I need to give some credit to the man who is still our World Heavyweight Champion. He wrestled a perfect game, he saw a weakness and he went after it. That makes a great champion.
Cole: Your right partner, he knew that Rey Mysterio has been out for many months with an injured knee and if Mysterio never had that injury, we could of very well saw a different result tonight.
JBL: Oh excuses, excuses. Michael like it or not Edge is the better man and the better wrestler, and like it or not he is the best in the WORLD today.
Cole: Well he maybe, but next month at Survivor Series he is going to have an even bigger test. As he will face the winner of tonight’s Hell in a Cell Match between Batista and The Undertaker.
JBL: Whomever wins this match tonight, will probably not even make it to Survivor Series
We then go backstage to see Ken Kennedy, Randy Orton and Vince McMahon who are in the middle of a conversation.
Orton: We are going to win this match and do you know why? Because they can’t get along. They both want a title shot my WWE Championship, and they are going to get in each other’s way. I assure you Vince that there is no stopping Randy Orton and Ken Kennedy tonight, and I will end the careers of both Chris Jericho and John Cena and I will get the winning pinfall.
Kennedy: Hang on a second, are you forgetting someone. Randy you go into the ring and do your stupid little and pose and you do your thing, but I AM THE MAN that will get the winning pinfall tonight. And at Survivor Series I will be taking that WWE Championship.
Orton: Hang on Kennedy that’s not the kind of team mentality we need. This WWE Champion makes me the team leader, and this means that I should get the winning pinfall tonight.
Kennedy: You the team captain? You running this team would be worse than George W Bush running the United States of America. If anybody was to be the team captain and get the winning pinfall in tonight’s match. It should be MISTEERRRRR KENNNNEDDDDYYY….
Orton: N….
Kennedy: KENNNEDDDYY!
Crowd gives a mixed reaction
Kennedy: How do you like them apples huh? How do you like them…
VINCE: SHADDAAPP!
Crowd Pops as Kennedy jumps and then holds onto his ears
Vince: What I don’t need is you two at each other’s throats. I couldn’t care less who gets the winning pinfall; all I want you to do is to out there not only beat John Cena and Chris Jericho. But end John Cena and Chris Jericho you got that.
Randy Orton nods as Ken Kennedy points to Randy Orton and mouths that was your fault.
Vince: Now let’s go out there and do the job.
McMahon, Kennedy and Orton then walk away with their match up next.
Survivor Series commercial
“Turn up the trouble” hits and Ken Kennedy comes down to the ring to some big heat from the crowd. He makes his way down to the ring looking as cocky as ever.
JR: What an opportunity this is for Ken Kennedy; if he gets the winning pinfall he will get his first WWE Title shot in his young career at the next PPV Survivor Series.
King: Everybody has been talking about how John Cena and Chris Jericho will struggle to coexist. But what about Ken Kennedy and Randy Orton as we just saw backstage.
“Burn inside my light” hits and the WWE Champion Randy Orton makes his way down to the ring to the biggest heat of the evening so far. Orton enters the ring and briefly stares at Kennedy, before raising his title belt in the air. As Orton does so we see Vince McMahon walking down to the ring. Vince enters ring and he briefly talks to Orton and Kennedy as they await their opponents.
JR: The WWE Champion has a chance to make sure that his biggest rival John Cena along with Chris Jericho and Ken Kennedy do not get a title shot until at least after Survivor Series. So he will be desperate to get the win in this tag team match.
“Break the walls down” hits and Chris Jericho comes out to a huge pop from the crowd. He makes his way down to the ring, halting at the bottom of the ramp and waits for his partner.
JR: Last month we found out that Chris Jericho was Vince McMahon’s bastard son. And he has told Vince he is going to make his life a living hell, and what way can he make it as worse as by winning the WWE Championship.
King: I still don’t think he is his son JR. Chris Jericho is far too ugly to be Vince McMahon’s son. Vince McMahon is a man of class and dignity, and Chris Jericho compared to Vince McMahon is the lowest scum on the earth.
“My time is now” hits and John Cena comes out to the biggest pop of the evening, despite a few scattered boos. John Cena makes his way down to the ring looking pumped up for this match, before stopping by Chris Jericho on the outside and they lock eyes.
JR: There is one goal in John Cena’s mind and that is to regain his WWE Championship.
King: This man does not deserve a WWE Title shot JR. He lost fair and square to Randy Orton at Unforgiven, and he can’t face the fact that Randy Orton is a great WWE Champion.

Winners: Chris Jericho and John Cena in 22:04 (Jericho wins right to face WWE Champion at Survivor Series

John Cena stares a hole through Chris Jericho whose music cuts off as it looks like the two men are going to go at it. But John Cena offers his hand to Chris Jericho. Chris Jericho looks at Cena not so sure about his offer, as Cena tells Jericho to be a man. Jericho shakes Cena’s hand, which gets a huge pop from the crowd, as John Cena then signals to Jericho that when he beats Randy Orton he wants the first title shot before leaving the ring.
JR: Great class shown there by John Cena, he didn’t get what he wanted but is still respectful enough to shake Chris Jericho's hand.
King: JR if I was John Cena, I would of knocked Chris Jericho’s head off right there.
JR: Well what a great Raw main event that was, and this means that at Survivor Series Randy Orton will face Chris Jericho for the WWE Championship. And Chris Jericho could win the WWE Title for the first time in over 5 years. But we still have one huge match left, lets go over to JBL and Michael Cole!
Michael Cole: Thank you JR, it is now time for one of the biggest matches in WWE History. You can see this Demonic Structure; the Hell in a Cell is hovering just above the ring. And this structure will play the final round of The Undertaker v Batista feud. JBL what will both men be thinking ahead of quite possibly one of their biggest matches in their career.
JBL: Only god knows Michael; I have waited for this match all night. And now it is time for hell to be unleashed on The Undertaker and Batista.
Cole: It sure is partner, let’s see how this all came about.
A video package plays hyping up the main events which has led to tonight’s match
We start the feud all the way back at Wrestlemania 23 with Undertaker beating Batista to win the World Title.
We then see clips of their matches after that including the Last Man Standing at Backlash and the Steel Cage Match on Smackdown.
We then see clips of Undertaker getting injured at the hands of Mark Henry.
We then fast forward to Unforgiven where Taker beats Mark Henry and Batista spears him on the ramp afterwards.
Finally we see clips of the two men going at it since then, showing Batista’s change in attitude, and see the two men brawling while both men speaking about what they are going to do to each other is played in the background.
We then cut back to the arena where the Hell in the Cell is down on the floor and we then cut to the ramp way.
“I Walk Alone” hits and Batista comes out to some HUGE HEAT FROM THE CROWD! Batista makes his normal traditional entrance, ignoring the crowd trying to get himself into the zone, and concentrate on the match ahead.
Cole: I have never in my life heard this type of reaction for Batista, a man who just a month ago was so loved by crowds all over the world and they have turned their backs on him because of his change in attitude in the last few weeks.
JBL: I know what it is like for that to happen to you, but I am sure Batista doesn’t care about these Morons. All this man cares is prove that he can beat The Undertaker, and gain a World Title Shot by doing so.
“Gong” hits and The Undertaker comes out to quite possibly the biggest pop of the night, and he makes his traditional long entrance to the ring. The Undertaker slowly makes his way to the ring, as Batista looks very impatient in the ring circling the ring staring down The Undertaker.
Cole: The Undertaker has made a legend out of himself in this match in the past. Just ask Shawn Michaels or Mick Foley. Will we talking about another Undertaker Hell In A Cell moment after tonight.
JBL: The Undertaker has never faced anyone as big or tough as Batista in the Hell In A Cell though Michael. Batista tore Triple H apart two years ago in this structure, and before that Triple H was undefeated in this type of match. And I believe that tonight could be a Batista Hell In A Cell moment.
Match 8
Hell in a Cell Match
Batista v The Undertaker
As Undertaker makes his entrance into the demonic structure, Batista wastes no time charging at Undertaker before he is even ready taking him to the outside of the Cell with a SPEAR ON THE UNDERTAKER!

Undertaker bounces off the ropes and comes back off them, with a sickening knee to the face of Batista, which has a whiplash effect for Batista’s head over the bottom rope. Batista rolls away holding onto his neck with his head hanging over the ring apron, which The Undertaker sees as he climbs onto the ring apron, and drops a big Leg Drop over the throat of Batista!

Batista then lifts Taker to his feet and he pushes Undertaker’s head against the Steel, and he starts raking Undertaker’s face along the Steel. Batista sees the damage this is doing to The Undertaker, so he decides to drag Undertaker all the way round the ring, raking Undertaker’s face all way round. But half way round Taker cuts Batista off with a high knee to the gut of Batista, and he repays the favour raking Batista’s head around the second half of the Cell along the Steel.

The Undertaker then locks on a side headlock, onto a grounded Batista. Batista quickly reacts by getting to his feet, and he elbows his way out of it before speeding off the ropes. Batista comes back off the ropes but is caught with a very un Undertaker like move, as Taker catches him with an armdrag takedown. The Undertaker then drops a leg over the arm, before wrapping his legs around it and starts pulling Batista’s arm out of its socket. Undertaker however decides not to finish Batista off with that move as he lets go of the hold and drags Taker back to his feet. Undertaker wrenches Batista’s arm and climbs up top. He walks the ropes, but for the second time in the match Batista counters the Old School as he pulls Batista off the top rope AND CATCH HIM IN MID AIR WITH A SPINEBUSTER! The crowd pops for that very impressive move as Batista smiles to himself very impressed with himself, before making his first cover of the match 1…. 2…. Undertaker gets his Shoulder’s up at 2!

And THE UNDERTAKER THEN HITS THE STEEL STEPS WITH THE STEEL CHAIR, CAUSING BATISTA TO LOSE BALANCE AND FALL TO THE GROUND WITH THE STEEL STEPS LANDING ONTOP OF HIS HEAD! Undertaker then shoves the Steps off Batista, before hitting a Big Chair Shot to the arm of Batista, once again focusing on that arm. Undertaker then goes after that Lead Pipe, and stalks Batista like his prey, BEFORE CRACKING THE LEAD PIPE OVER THE SKULL OF BATISTA BUSTING HIM OPEN!
Big “Taker” chants echo around the arena as they along with The Undertaker realise, that Batista has been badly busted open. The Undertaker takes advantage going straight after that cut, stomping away at the head of Batista, before bouncing off the ropes and dropping a stiff elbow over the head of Batista. The Undertaker then pulls Batista into position and locks on the Triangle Choke onto the Animal! Batista starts yelling in agony, as blood pours down his forehead and Undertaker puts more pressure onto the throat of Batista. The referee drops to the mat and asks if Batista wants to quit, and Batista sure as hell looks like he wants to, but he knows what’s on the line and knows he can not quit. This gives Batista the urge to somehow find the strength inside of him, to spin around onto his stomach and from the mat to lift Undertaker onto his shoulders to set him up for the Batista Bomb! But Undertaker pushes himself over Batista’s shoulders onto the mat, as Batista falls back into the corner having to use all of his strength in that one move. Batista then gets to his feet in the corner as Undertaker goes for a turnbuckle clothesline, but Batista moves out of the way and speeds off the ropes as Undertaker crashes into the corner. Undertaker staggers around and right into the SPEAR! Batista drops down to make the cover 1…. 2…. Undertaker kicks out just before 3!

Batista then hooks Taker’s arm over his head, and CONNECTS WITH A SUPERPLEX OFF THE TOP ROPE SENDING UNDERTAKER CRASHING DOWN ONTO THE MAT! Batista shakes off the pain he felt from that move, before crawling ontop of Undertaker and hooking the leg once more 1…. 2…. Undertaker kicks out again to the disbelief of Batista, who is doing all he can to finish this match as he is in a lot of pain. Batista raises three fingers up at the referee, but the referee responds by reminding Batista that was a two count.
Batista goes back to work by lifting Taker into a seated position, and he starts clubbing away at the back and neck area of the Deadman. Batista then wraps his legs around Undertaker’s body, and his arms around his throat locking on a Dragon Sleeper Hold! This is not the kind of move Batista would usually do, but Batista locks it on very effectively squeezing away at Undertaker like a Snake. The crowd in audience start clapping their hands and tapping their foot on the floor, trying to urge Undertaker on, but Undertaker does not look good whatsoever and looks like he is beginning to fade away. The referee sees this and lifts his arm up once……and it drops……he lifts it a second time…….and it drops…….He lifts it a third time, can this be it?……..No Taker keeps it up! Batista looks on in disbelief as Undertaker pushes Batista’s legs off him, and he starts fighting his way to his feet! The Undertaker gets up and elbows his way out before bouncing off the ropes. Undertaker comes back off the ropes but is met with a kick to the gut, and Batista then places Undertaker’s head between his legs. Batista lifts Taker to his shoulders and CONNECTS WITH THE BATISTA BOMB! The crowd can’t believe it as Batista surely has the victory here and he makes the cover

BATISTA KICKS OUT!
The Undertaker looks at Batista in disbelief, as he was so sure he had the victory right there. Undertaker looks down at Batista who has a horrible cut on his head, with blood still pouring down it. Undertaker lifts Batista to his feet, and in a very angrily fashion, he tosses him over the top rope to the outside, looking pissed off that he couldn’t get Batista finished. Undertaker rolls to the outside and he pushes the Camera Man out of the way, before as he goes to go after Batista. Undertaker sees Batista getting to his feet by the Steel Steps, and he runs up but BATISTA CATCHES HIM WITH A HIP TOSS WITH TAKER LANDING LEG FIRST ON THE STEEL STEPS! In a very rare moment, we see Undertaker yelling in agony holding onto his leg, as Batista falls to the ground not able to keep himself on his own two feet. Batista then very oddly puts his hands in his trunks and pulls out a bag. Batista then puts his hand in the bag and PULLS OUT SOME HANDCUFFS!
The crowd boos loudly as a slight smirk appears through Batista’s bloody face. Batista still sitting on the ground puts one handcuff around Undertaker’s right hand, and pulls him up to his feet and he handcuffs him to the Cell! Undertaker finally realises the predicament he is, and he does all he can to pull himself off the cell, as Batista looks under the ring and pulls out a Steel Chair. Batista then approaches Taker who throws left hand punches at Batista which all miss. Undertaker then goes to kick Batista with his injured leg, but Batista swings the chair and smashes the Chair across the back of Undertaker’s Injured Leg. Batista then drives the chair into the gut, before SMASHING THE STEEL CHAIR OFF THE UNDERTAKER’S SKULL BUSTING HIM OPEN! Batista hasn’t finished just there however as he then repeatedly smashes the chair over every limb on The Undertaker’s body, hitting Undertaker with at least twelve chair shots giving us memories of Rock v Stone Cold from Wrestlemania 17. As The Undertaker sits on the ground with Blood Pouring down him like a River, Batista goes after some more Steel Steps on the outside of the ring. Batista lifts it up and waits for him to get back to his feet, which somehow The Undertaker valiantly does so fighting the pain. BATISTA THEN CHARGES UP WITH THE STEEL STEPS AND CRASHES THEM INTO UNDERTAKER, SANDWICHING HIM BETWEEN STEPS AND CELL!
The Undertaker drops to the ground like a sack of potatoes, which thankfully for him tear the Handcuffs off the cell, but it might be too late. For the first time we hear chants of “Batista sucks”, but Batista is completely oblivious to that as he looks down at Undertaker in an almost Psychotic fashion. Batista then tries to lift Taker up to his feet, but struggles to lift up his lifeless body, but when he does so he rolls him into the ring. Batista then rolls into the ring and he makes the cover but not hooking the leg, but that shouldn’t matter anyway

UNDERTAKER GETS HIS SHOULDER OFF THE MAT SOMEHOW!!
Batista storms to his feet and kicks the bottom rope, before grabbing the referee by the shirt, shouting out loud that was a three. The referee shakes his hands and signals it was a two count, looking rather scared that Batista is going to hit him. Batista however shoves the referee away and looks around thinking what to do next. Batista then looks to the outside and quickly rolls to the outside and goes after the Camera Man. He tries to take the Camera off him, but the Camera Man very stupidly says he needs it to do his job. This makes Batista kick the Camera Man in the gut and toss him head first into the cell! The crowd boos Batista who doesn’t care who you are you don’t get in his way, as he grabs the Camera and brings it into the ring. Batista then looks on at disgust at The Undertaker, who is somehow getting up to his feet. Batista starts breathing very heavily as Undertaker starts to turn around. Batista swings the Camera at The Undertaker….WHO DUCKS! UNDERTAKER THEN GRABS BATISTA AND SPINS HIM UPSIDE DOWN, AND SOMEHOW HITS THE TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER! Nobody in the arena can believe that Taker could hit the Tombstone Piledriver after the beating he just received, but Undertaker can not capitalise as he is in too much pain. The Undertaker finally starts to respond as he crawls over to Batista and hooks the leg

BATISTA KICKS OUT OF THE TOMBSTONE!!
Hang on nobody kicks out of the Tombstone Piledriver? The Undertaker looks on at Batista with disgust on his face, not believing that Batista kicked out of the Tombstone Piledriver. The Undertaker slowly gets to his feet with help from the ropes and drags Batista to his feet and starts pounding away at him against the ropes, The Undertaker then whips Batista off the opposite side of the ropes and charges up to meet him with a clothesline, but Batista is thinking the same thing and both men take each other down with a clothesline. Both men are down and out, but there are no count outs in this match. After a wait of nearly 30 seconds, both men start to slowly reach their feet in opposite corners of the ring via help from the ropes. They then turn around to meet each other in the centre of the ring and Batista throws a hard right hand, to which Undertaker throws one back. Batista throws another hard right, and Undertaker replies again with a stinging hard jab. This carries on as both men get into a fistfight, with neither man looking like they are going to give in. But Batista is the man to do so, as Undertaker pounds away at Batista into the corner with a series of hard left and rights to the face. Undertaker then leads Batista to the ropes and goes to whip him off them, but Batista counters. Batista ducks down too early however allowing Undertaker to come back with a RUNNING DDT ONTO BATISTA! Undertaker then crawls over Batista and he hooks the leg 1….2….Batista kicks out somehow!
Undertaker then lifts Batista to his feet and wrenches his arm, before making his way to the corner of the ring and climbing to the top rope. Undertaker walks the top rope and he is third time lucky, as he finally connects with the Old School on the third time of trying. Undertaker then once again signals for the end, as he lifts his hand in the air and wiggles his fingers. Batista gets to his feet in a very dazed and confused manner, before turning around straight into The Undertaker who grabs him by the throat. The Undertaker then lifts Batista in the air and DROPS HIM WITH A MAT BREAKING CHOKESLAM! Undertaker then gets down to make the cover and surely this has to be it

BATISTA KICKS OUT AGAIN!!
The Undertaker looks at the referee in a “What the Hell” type manner, thinking to himself what it will take to finish Batista off. As the injured camera man is taken out of the cell on a stretcher, Undertaker takes advantage of the Cell door being open and he goes to the outside of the ring and grabs the ring bell. Undertaker then brings the bell into the ring and he starts sizing Batista up, who starts to very slowly recover to his feet by the Steel Steps. As Batista reaches his feet, UNDERTAKER CHARGES UP AT BATISTA, WHO OUT OF NOWHERE CATCHES UNDERTAKER WITH A SPINEBUSTER ONTO THE STEEL STEPS!! The crowd gives some “Ooos” and “ahhs” feeling Undertaker’s pain, as a bloody Batista starts to slowly crawl over to Undertaker before putting an arm over his chest

UNDERTAKER NOW KICKS OUT!
The crowd sighs out loud in relief, as it is now The Undertaker’s time to show a bit of resiliency and kick out, when he didn’t have any right to do so. Batista sits up and he reaches for his foot looking around thinking what the Hell he has to do to beat The Undertaker. A bloody and beaten Batista then slowly rolls to the outside, and he pulls up the ring apron. Batista then pulls out a giant bag from underneath the ring, and his head then pops over the ring apron looking at The Undertaker with a very psychotic tone in his face. Batista then rolls into the ring and he gets to his feet. He then opens the bag and turns it upside down……AND THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF THUMBTACKS DROP DOWN INTO THE CENTRE OF THE RING! We can hear the crowd murmuring in anticipation, as they know something big is about to go down. Batista spreads out the thumbtacks evenly, before picking The Undertaker slowly up to his feet. Batista places Undertaker’s head between his legs, and it looks as though Batista is going to hit the Batista Bomb to Taker on the Thumbtacks. But The Undertaker saves himself, as he rams Batista into the corner of the ring and he starts desperately pounding away at Batista with some hard right hands. Undertaker then lifts Batista to the top rope and goes to climb up there with him, but Batista kicks him in the face allowing him some time to recover. But Undertaker goes straight after Batista, who then looks around for a mode of escape. And he finds one as he climbs onto the Cell Wall behind the turnbuckle, as The Undertaker climbs up onto the middle rope.
The two giants then slug if out, exchanging hard right hands. Batista looks like he is getting the better of Undertaker, who looks like he is going to fall backwards onto the Thumbtacks. But Taker keeps his grip and GRABS BATISTA BY THE THROAT! THE UNDERTAKER THEN ADJUSTS POSITION AND CHOKESLAMS BATISTA OFF THE INSIDE WALL OF THE CELL ALL THE WAY DOWN INTO THE RING ONTO THE THUMBTACKS!! “Holy Shit” is echoed around the arena as Taker wipes the Thumbtacks that stuck onto his arm and attire, before cutting his throat signalling the end is here for Batista. Undertaker grabs Batista and turns him inside AND HE CONNECTS WITH THE TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!! Undertaker then hooks Batista’s arms on his chest and closes his eyes sticking out his tongue

Nobody in the arena can believe, with the Undertaker, the referee, the announcers, the timekeeper, the fans all with their mouth open wide in shock. Undertaker looks down at Batista who looks out of it despite that Kickout. Undertaker drags Batista’s dead weight to his feet, and he twists Batista upside down setting him up for the third Tombstone Piledriver. AND HE WALKS OVER TO THE STEEL STEPS. AND HE DROPS BATISTA HEAD FIRST ON THE STEEL STEPS WITH THE THIRD TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!! Undertaker rolls Batista off the steps and he puts hooks Batista’s arm on his chest, cross armed making the cover, while rolling his eyes into the back of his head and sticking out his tongue

UNDERTAKER WINS HELL IN A CELL
Winner: The Undertaker in 25:03 (Undertaker is now the number 1 contender for World Heavyweight Championship)
And finally it is over. The Cell is immediately lifted back up above the ring as paramedics rush down to the ring pushing stretchers down to the ring. A bloody and beaten Undertaker tries to get to his feet, but immediately falls down to his knees, as there is no movement by Batista.
Cole: HE DID IT! HE DID IT! THE UNDERTAKER HAS BEATEN BATISTA AND THANK GOD THIS MATCH IS OVER!
JBL: What a match that was Michael! We knew these two mammoths would tear down the house tonight, and they have done that and more. The Undertaker won this match, but neither he nor Batista will ever be the same again.
Cole: What a performance by both men. They put their bodies on the line, and like Batista or not he put on a hell of an effort kicking out of all The Undertaker had to offer.
JBL: Your right Michael nobody kicks out of two Tombstone Piledrivers and Batista did just that. And with the state Batista is in, he is not going to take this loss very well.
As we prepare to sign off, The Undertaker leaves the ring as the paramedics attempt to help Batista onto the stretcher. Batista though pushes them out of the way and uses the ropes to get to his feet, wanting to leave the ring on his own two feet. Batista walks out of the arena with the help of two paramedics, and he definitely looks to be concussed in some sort of fashion.
Cole: How are these two men leaving this arena on their own power I don’t know JBL. But at in just 5 weeks time at Survivor Series, Edge will get his toughest title defence since he has won the World Heavyweight Title. As Edge will face the man who just went to hell and back tonight, The Undertaker.
JBL: I don’t know how Undertaker will even get to Survivor Series after this one Michael.
Cole: Well that’s it for a fantastic No Mercy PPV. The Hell In A Cell has just proved why it is the most deadliest structure in the history of the WWE. For JBL, I’m Michael Cole signing off. Goodnight everybody.
END OF SHOW
