Tonight’s Raw opens up with Chris Jericho and Randy Orton in the ring protesting last week’s fatal four way results. This prompted HBK and JBL to come out to the ring, finally prompting Stephanie McMahon to come out and declare that despite complaints, Orton and Jericho have no major complaint, and that she doesn’t care what they say. McMahon, not only gets pictured from the waist down with a mini skirt on, she also makes a match for tonight; John Cena & HBK vs. Chris Jericho & Randy Orton, which should be an instant classic, but it’s not ppv, so it probably won’t be.
Goldust & Melina defeated Beth Phoenix & Santino
This match was interesting to say the least, as Santino was getting cheered, and Goldust finally got a match on Raw. This was good, Goldust did not show any major signs of ring rust, even though he hasn’t been on raw in a long time. At least not on a wrestling capacity, but this was looking to be quite well. Melina won after pinning Beth Phoenix with som sort of top rope move. Goldust and Melina win a match together, and hopefully Goldust gets more to do on Raw.
Cm Punk defeated William Regal via Disqualification
The intercontinental championship was on the line for the first time in a while on raw. Cm Punk looked good out there against William Regal, but all eyes were on Layla which looked amazing in that black dress and boots. This match was going into interesting roads, and it looked like Cm Punk was poised to win this one. Punk hit his high knee into the corner, and then set up the GTS, but Regal held onto the ropes, then held onto the ref forcing him to get disqualified. Regal walks out with the champion still in tact, but Stephanie McMahon shows up on the big screen to announce that Regal has to give Punk a rematch and next time, the title can change hands via dq.
Backstage, Dolph Ziggler introduces himself to Mickie James, and Manu gets thrown out of the Legacy group.
The Miz & John Morrison defeated Rey Mysterio Jr. and Kofi Kingston
The tag team champions really had their hands full in this match. Mysterio and Kingston were really all over the place, putting a major hurting on champs. However, within a commercial break, the champions got back into the game and were really showing off why they are the tag team champions. The end came when Mysterio jumped off the top rope and was met with a huge sidekick by John Morrison, in mid air! Morrison and Miz win yet again, in this three to four start match on Raw.
Post match, Mike Knox came in and beat down Rey Mysterio. What is funny is that this is the same story line that we saw Rey Mysterio in back a few years ago with none other than A-Train. Remember? This exact same scenario led to a Rey Myserio knee injury that put him on the shelf for almost a year. Looks like WWE really likes making Rey Mysterio work for that pay check, huh?
Kelly Kelly defeated Jillian
This as a throwaway match for me, nothing crazy here. Jillian can’t really wrestle, and while Kelly has shown some signs of improvement, and some good overall matches before, this wasn’t one of those good ones.
Post match, Kane came out to save Kelly Kelly from getting a beat down. But says that he’s going to kill Randy Orton next week.
Sim Snuka & Cody Rhodes defeated Cryme Tyme
I didn’t think this was going to go well for the legacy team, but they seemed to be holding their own out there amidst a more experienced tag team partnership. The majority of the match had Cryme Tyme in control, until Cody Rhodes managed to drop his opponent with what appeared to be a rolling ddt, and it was all over. Good stuff overall, not too crazy, and just enough to make this watchable for me.
Shawn Michaels & John Cena defeated Chris Jericho & Randy Orton
Cena looked great out there, and it seemed that any problems that may have come from tagging with Shawn Michaels were to be averted. Nothing crazy happened, until midway through the match Cena nearly delivered the FU to Shawn Michaels, after getting raked in the eyes. Other than that, the majority of the match was Cena taking a major beating and Shawn Michaels not even trying to help. Shawn Michaels eventually got tagged in and he was not laying puppet to JBL and even got the pin to win this match up!

WWE Raw 12/29/08 Results and Review HBK Idiot
Instead of getting a match opening this episode of Raw opens up with Rey Mysterio in the ring. He asks for a match with Shawn Michaels, and HBK accepts! However, JBL comes out and tells him that HBK no longer can answer for himself. Amidst Rey Mysterio talking and trying to get HBK to return back to the ring, Mike Knox came out and beats the crap out of him, proving yet again that the WWE hates Rey Mysterio. John Cena comes out to save him, and Knox runs away like a coward.
CM Punk defeated Cody Rhodes
Apparently, if Rhodes didn’t win he’d be out of the new Orton stable that is forming. Cm Punk was really putting on a desperate attempt to win against punk. Punk didn’t look so good. He had his arm taped up, and you could visibly see a bruise on his leg from previous matches where he got hit hard. Cm Punk launched himself head first onto the outside and hit his head really hard on the announce table, which was interesting to say the least. William Regal distracted Punk and Rhodes jumped into the ring for a count out victory. Not exactly the greatest thing I’ve ever seen. But I guess you just have to go with it.
Melina won a divas battle royal
The winner of this match would get a women’s title match. This match was short, and it was basically an over the top rope affair. Melina won after throwing out Mickie James. This match up was boring to say the least, nothing really happened until after the match was over. Melina and Beth Phoenix started fighting on the announce table, which was kind of cool. Beth Phoenix’s biggest fan jumped out of the audience and helped Beth out, but was thrown out by security.
Sim Snuka defeated Charlie “Superfly” Haas
Sim Snuka basically beat the crap out of Haas for coming out dressed as his father Jimmy Snuka. This match was a jobber show, and while Haas did get some minor offense in there, it wasn’t all that great at all. Snuka is better here than when he was part of that greaser gimmick on Smackdown, but not by much. Haas went for the superfly flash but man, Snuka put his knees up and Haas really took a beating, it was bad. He had to have all the wind knocked out of him. Snuka beats Haas yet again.
John Cena, Cryme Tyme, Rey Mysterio Jr, and Kofi Kingston defeated Kane, Dolph Ziggler, The Miz & John Morrison, and Mike Knox
This match started out with such great momentum. Kofi Kingston was putting on a show as usual, and this time he seemed to a have a little more control than usual. He was in there doing all the best high spots, and proving yet again that he very well maybe the next big thing. We then went to commercial, and you could telegraph what would happen on the return. Yep, Rey Mysterio was getting beat up by the monster team, and they were tagging in and out, basically proving my comments that the wwe hates rey mysterio. Mysterio hit the reverse hurricanrana on Morrison and the crowd went nuts! He then tagged in John Cena and the champ started to clean house, and this match just turned into high spot heaven. Cena was hitting anything that moved and for once the crowd was fully behind him. John Cena hit the FU on Mike Knox and then tagged in Rey Mysterio to finish him off! Mysterio hit the splash and it was all over!
Matt Hardy defeated Manu
Manu put in some great effort in this match up. He was giving it his all and Matt Hardy just proved to be too much for the second generation superstar. The match was alright for the most part, Hardy was taking a beating for the most part of this match up, and was on rails to lose this one but Manu got hit with the Twist of Fate out of nowhere and boom; Manu loses this one and is possibly going to get kicked out of Legacy, the new Orton stable.
Jbl defeated Chris Jericho, Randy Orton, and Shawn Michaels
You couldn’t get this match to be any more emotional at the end. This match was good, it had a lot of moments with great position and strategy. I was hoping for Chris Jericho to win, but he was eliminated early on. Orton stuck around towards the end, but didn’t last through an HBK sweet chin music. It came down to JBL and HBK and JBL ordered his employee to lay down, but HBK couldn’t do it. This was full of tense moments and nothing happened, just the two people staring at each other and things were not looking good for the heart break kid. Shawn eventually, after a long drawn out pause, laid down for JBL. The last time I saw someone lay down for anyone was in WCW when Kevin Nash laid down for Hulk Hogan after the one finger of doom, that was classic. Or maybe Hogan laid down again in 2001, I don’t remember all that well, I think it was 2000 actually. Either way, Shawn Michaels couldn’t lay down so he asked for the Clothesline from Hell and JBL obliged with hellacious force knocking our HBK and wins a title shot thanks to HBK basically throwing the match. This was tense folks, I can’t explain it any better, it was very tense.
Overall a good raw, nothing too crazy, and just good overall wrestling, I liked it this week.
