January Week 2, Year 1

I wish I could play every match on Raw. 

Raw
Match 1. Antonio Cesaro vs. Christian vs. Eddie Guerrero
This is a non-title match. Cesaro and Christian hit Eddie with a leg sweep/STO combo. Cesaro then turned on Christian and hit the Neutralizer. Eddie and Cesaro landed a double back breaker on Christian. Eddie missed a springboard leg drop and Cesaro pinned Christian to win.

Match 2. The Hardyz vs. Dean Ambrose and Roman Reigns

Match 4. Randy Savage vs. Chris Jericho
Savage clotheslined Jericho out of the ring and landed a powerslam. Back in the ring, Jericho powerbombed Savage, but got a two count. Savage countered a powerbomb into a face buster. He then body slammed Jericho and hit the elbow drop to win.

Main Event. Last Man Standing - Daniel Bryan vs. Ric Flair
Flair was walking down the ramp when Bryan left the ring and the match began. Ric Flair targeted the knee with knee smashes. He then brought in the steel steps and knocked Bryan out with the steps. Bryan was unable to get up.

Superstars
Match 1. Ultimate Warrior vs. The Miz

Match 2. Big E Langston and X-Pac vs. Razor Ramon and Curtis Axel

Match 3. Undertaker and Mick Foley vs. Mark Henry and Kurt Angle
Henry hit Foley with a tilt-a-whirl slam and tagged in Angle. Foley caught Angle with a pulling piledriver. Angle ducked a punch from Taker and hit him with an Angle Slam. Angle hit Foley with a German suplex and got a near fall. Taker lifted Angle up for the Tombstone and won.

Match 4. Triple H vs. Alberto Del Rio
Punk attacked Triple H from behind. Triple H got caught with a dragon screw take down and a tilt-a-whirl back breaker. Triple H went for the Pedigree, but Del Rio countered it into a Samoan drop. Del Rio landed a piledriver, but got a two count. He caught Triple H with a body slam and back breaker to win.

After the match, Del Rio continued stomping on Triple H.

Main Event. Bret Hart vs. CM Punk
Bret was in the ring when Punk attacked him from behind. Punk is mocking Bret by wearing pink and black. Punk hit the GTS right after the attack, but Bret kicked out. Punk hit a second GTS on the outside. Bret got a couple of near falls on the outside. Bret countered the GTS. Punk rolled Bret up on the outside and won.

SmackDown
Match 1. Mr. Perfect vs. Goldust

Match 2. Legion of Doom vs. The Usos

Match 3. Rated-RKO vs. John Cena and Sheamus
Edge and Orton double teamed Sheamus with what looked like a double RKO. During the match, Batista ran down with a chair and attacked Cena. Cena hit Edge with the AA, but Batista broke up the pin. Cena continued the assault and got a couple of near falls. Orton caught Cena with two clotheslines and a snap slam before getting the win.

Match 4. Submission - Cody Rhodes vs. Bray Wyatt
Cody hit Bray with the Alabama Slam, but could not lock in a submission. Bray landed a back breaker, but Cody got right up and hit Cross Rhodes. He hit it again about a minute later. Bray landed a vicious clothesline and diving cross body before making Cody tap from a camel clutch.

Main Event. Ryback vs. Batista
Ryback landed two overhead slams on the outside. He then hit Shell Shock and was going for a count out. Batista came back with a clothesline and the Batista Bomb. Both men scored a near fall. Ryback busted Batista open with a DDT and hit the meat hook clothesline to win.

After the match, Edge and Orton appeared at the top of the ramp. Ryback walked up and celebrated with them.

Recap: Ryback, Edge and Orton sounds like a dangerous trio. Cesaro is the toughest US champion to date. Main Event should be a good show.
