These are the results from the January 4th episode of WWE Monday Night Raw:
- First Round – Women’s Championship Match
Maryse defeated Brie Bella (w/ Nikki Bella)
- Four Way Match for no.1 Contendership for United Stated Championship
MVP defeated Mark Henry & Carlito & Jack Swagger
- Unified WWE Tag Team Champions
D-Generation X (c) defeated Big Show & Chris Jericho
- Sheamus (c) defeated Evan Bourne
- Randy Orton defeated Kofi Kingston
Notes: Wow! Bret is back! When I first heard about the news of Bret coming back to the WWE. I thought to myself: “I’ll believe it when I see it!” Well I believe it now. Bret Hart came out to a screaming crowd and thanked them for never forgetting him. Then he called out Shawn Michaels to bury the hatchet. Shawn Michaels admitted his hand in the Montreal Screwjob and said that Bret deserved it. The crowd booed him. However, he did say that he admired Bret. They spoke about the Montreal Screwjob weighing on their careers. Bret offered his hand in friendship and Shawn waited a few seconds to accept. As they where going their separate ways. Shawn stopped a few minutes and then gave Bret a hug. What?! I was hoping that Shawn might give Bret the sweet chin music or Bret might punch Shawn. They hug?! Well, at least they bury the hatchet in public. Some part of me is thinking that this is a work. Who am I kidding? This is a work!
MVP is now the no. 1 contender for the US Championship. He has to go against his own partner Mark Henry to get the top spot. So…I guess their not friends anymore.
Chris Jericho visited Bret Hart backstage and suggested that Bret should out to screw DX as revenge. Bret refused and said that he wants to go past the Montreal Screwjob. Jericho couldn’t believe what he had said. I’m hoping that it does happen. It would make things more interesting.
The Unified Tag Team Championship match began around the 10:00 hour. It was quite sad to see Hornswoggle escort DX to the ring. DX would have never done something like that 10 years ago. Chris Jericho mocked Hulk Hogan during the match by doing his old routine of holding his hand to his ear. Jericho attempted to put DX into the walls of Jericho a few times during the match with no luck. Hornswoggle got in on the fun by attacking The Big Show once and attempting to attack Jericho. However, Jericho kicked Hornswoggle in the head. Ouch! Poor little guy. Good thing he had on a helmet. Eventually, Triple H pinned Jericho and the sexy beast crawled out of the ring a loser. Goodbye Jericho. You will be sorely missed on Raw.
Randy Orton confronted Vince McMahon and asked if he could punt Bret Hart in the head. Vince said that he despised Orton more than Bret for what he did to his family. Orton said that he would fight Bret Hart on Vince’s behalf, but he would have to be entered into the Royal Rumble as number 30. McMahon refused the offer, saying that he had his own security tonight. Orton walked along and Ted DiBiase Jr. and Cody Rhodes stopped him in the hallway. They mentioned his match with Kofi later on. If Kofi won later on, Cody and Ted would have to kick Randy out of Legacy. Randy Orton looked pretty pissed, but I admire Ted and Cody for having the balls for calling their leader out.
Another guy with some balls, Evan Bourne. Evan interrupted Sheamus and challenged him to match. He said that Sheamus won the belt, because he was given the opportunity. Evan suggested that he could beat Sheamus if given the opportunity. Sheamus laughed it off and accepted the offer. To bad for Evan that Sheamus beat him to a pulp. Poor Evan. He loses…once again. I was kind of hoping he would beat Sheamus in this match.
Ted DiBiase, Jr. and Cody Rhodes sat ringside to evaluate Randy Orton in his match against Kof Kingston. Kofi gave Orton quite the fight, but lost the match. Randy pinned Kofi with a angst look at DiBiase and Rhodes.
Vince McMahon came out and said that he was not going to call out Bret. He wished the crowd a Happy New Year and reminded everyone that Mike Tyson was hosting Raw next week. Bret wandered out and walked into the ring to confront Vinnie Mac. Vince looked a little afraid that Bret might put him into a sharpshooter. Bret wanted to make a truce and put the past behind him. Vince looked a little bit more comfortable standing next to “The Hitman” and started to kiss his ass. Bret liked what he was hearing. Vince extended his hand in friendship and Bret accepted. They rose their hands in victory, but then Vince kicked Bret in the gut.
This is was a good episode. However, I wasn’t expecting this episode to be great. The way that Raw has been in the last few weeks hasn’t been good. I watched Raw over TNA iMPACT! for Bret Hart and I was satisfied. It seems that they are building a Vinnie Mac vs. Bret Hart brawl at WrestleMania and I am excited about that.
I would like to add that this was an exciting night for wrestling. I will give my TNA iMPACT! review soon.
