Sheamus says that he sat back and watched as the Nexus attacked different people with a smile on his face because he was sure he, but last week on RAW, he realized the Nexus was a threat to everybody. He says he helped protect Cena because he wants to beat Cena without any excuses for the loss.

Eve vs. Alicia Fox is up next.
My Prediction: As much as I’d like to see Eve pick up the win, I’m predicting Alicia to retain.

Alicia and Eve lock up and Alicia overpowers Eve. Eve fights back and tosses Alicia off. Eve gets a side headlock and Alicia sends her off, but Eve hits her with a shoulder block and covers for 1. Eve gets a jackknife for 1 and rolls up Alicia for 2. Eve hits a dropkick on Alicia and follows up with a knee in the corner. Alicia fights back and sends Eve into the corner.

Alicia counters an attack from Eve with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker and covers for 2. She locks in a bow and arrow stretch on Eve. Eve gets to a standing position and manages to flip out of the hold. She sends Alicia flying and when Alicia comes after her, Eve hits a pair of forearm shots and gets a 1 count following a cross body block. Eve hits a pair of dropkicks, but doesn’t have the strength to hit a suplex because of the damage to her back. Eve hits a kick to the knee and follows up with a big kick to Alicia’s head. Eve hits a standing moonsault, but only gets 2. Alicia kicks Eve in the face, but Eve fights back with a pair of big kicks out of the corner. Eve goes to the second rope and tries for a senton bomb off the ropes, but Alicia gets her knees up and Eve lands on the knees. Alicia hits her axe kick and covers for 3.

Move of the Match: Honestly, I’d have to give this either to Eve’s big kick, or Alicia’s Backbreaker hold from early on.

2 for 2

My Prediction: The Hart Dynasty retains.

4 for 4

In the back, Edge is watching on the big screen when Jericho comes up behind him. Jericho and Edge both say they plan to win the RAW MITB Match and cash in their contract tonight.

Kelly Kelly vs. Layla is next.
My Prediction: I think Layla will pick up the win to retain. Michelle McCool will probably involve herself at some point to help Layla win.

Alicia Fox vs. Eve: Divas Championship
What I want to happen: Honestly I think Eve was a better Divas Champion than Alicia and I would like to see her win it back.
My Prediction: As much as I’d like to see Eve pick up the win, I’m predicting Alicia to retain.

Layla vs. Kelly Kelly: Women’s Championship
What I want to happen: Although I think Kelly has a lot of potential, I don’t really think I’m ready to accept her as a champion right now, so I think I’d like to see Layla retain.
My Prediction: I think Layla will pick up the win to retain. Michelle McCool will probably involve herself at some point to help Layla win.

RAW Money in the Bank Match: Ted DiBiase vs. Chris Jericho vs. Edge vs. The Miz vs. Evan Bourne vs. John Morrison vs. Randy Orton vs. Mark Henry

Move of the Match: I think this has to go to the Bubba Bomb.

Move of the Match: I have to give this to the Botox Injection into the chair.

After the match Madison argues with the referee and then joins the woman on the motorcycle and they ride out of the Impact Zone.

Morgan tries to escape the cage immediately, but Hernandez grabs him and sends him into the sides of the cage. Morgan goes after Hernandez in the corner, but Hernandez moves and proceeds to pick up Morgan and drop him across the top rope. Morgan goes up top and dropkicks Morgan into the side of the cage.

He whips him into the other corner, but Hernandez comes out with a huge clothesline. He hits a running splash into the corner and another clothesline. Morgan goes for the Carbon Footprint, but gets caught with a shoulder block. Hernandez looks for the Border Toss, but Morgan flails and Hernandez can’t keep Morgan on his shoulder. Morgan hits a short arm clothesline and rakes his shoe across Hernandez’s head. Hernandez avoids the splash in the corner and goes for the Border Toss again. Once again, he can’t maintain the hold, but this time he drops Morgan into a powerbomb type move. Hernandez goes up top and goes for a diving splash from the top, but Morgan moves. Morgan grabs a pair of handcuffs from ringside. Morgan handcuffs Hernandez to the top rope and starts to climb up top. Morgan stops at the top to taunt the crowd again. Hernandez breaks the handcuffs and hits the big man dive through the door and lands on the ramp to win the match.

Move of the Match: I think this has to go either to the drop kick from Hernandez early on simply because it was something you wouldn’t really expect from Hernandez or to the gutwrench powerbomb type move used when Hernandez couldn’t properly hit the Border toss on Morgan.

3 for 5

In the back, Flair says that Lethal has made a bad career move. He says Ric Flair is the reason there is a sport called pro wrestling and when he and Lethal face off, Lethal will be standing in the ring saying, “O my God, what have I done?”

Ric Flair vs. Jay Lethal is next.
My Prediction: This is in some ways hard to predict. I fully expect this to be a tough match, but I also expect that Lethal will pick up the win in the end.

Move of the Match: This has to go to the Figure Four Leg Lock because not only did it give Lethal the win, but it was great to see Lethal pick up the win on Flair with Flair’s own finisher.

After the match Flair gets up and gets in Hebner’s face. Hebner pushes Flair down and raises Lethal’s hand. Lethal gets the mic and says, “Hey, mom, I did it!”

5 for 7

Up next we see “The Pope” D’Angelo Dinero taking on Kurt Angle.
My Prediction: As much as I like the Pope, with Angle saying he will leave if he loses, he’s pretty much guaranteed to pick up the win in this match.

6 for 8

Rob Van Dam tells Christy Hemme that if Abyss tries to use his weapon, RVD will get a hold of it and put it where the “sun don’t shine.” He says all he’s worried about tonight is remaining champion.

It’s time for the Main Event.
My Prediction: I see RVD picking up in the win and proving that just because a fatal four way match doesn’t favor the champion, he still has a chance to retain his title.

JB introduces Mr. Anderson, Abyss, Jeff Hardy and RVD and after the announcement, the referee shows the title and signals for the match to start.

Move of the Match: There were a number of good moves. I liked the Tower of Doom and the fact that each man hit one of their finishers at least once. I think I have to give this to the 5 Star Frog Splash.

After the match, Abyss attacks RVD. He gets his weapon and chases off the referee. Abyss swings, but RVD moves. The weapon hits the mat and rips up the canvas. RVD and Abyss stare down to end the pay-per-view.

Victory Road Predictions

Feeling lazy again and I didn’t review SmackDown. I’m helping with a lock-in at my church tonight, so I’m not sure how soon I’ll get to watch Victory Road, but I’ll get the review posted as soon as I’ve watched it. Time for predictions.

Douglas Williams vs. Brian Kendrick: X-Division Championship (Ultimate X/Submission Match)
What I want to happen: Kendrick Shows Williams that while his mat wrestling style is impressive, it’s not necessarily better than the high flying style.
My Prediction: Ultimate X definitely favors Kendrick’s traditional high flying style. Kendrick has also shown in recent weeks that he has an impressive submission hold in his arsenal. I don’t know whether it will end by retrieving the belt or through submission, but I expect Kendrick to pick up the win in this match.

Motor City Machine Guns vs. Beer Money, Inc.: TNA World Tag Team Championship
What I want to happen: I’d like to see the Guns pick up a victory in this match.
My Prediction: The Guns have never held the TNA World Tag Team Championship, and I really think Beer Money has become convinced that the Guns aren’t a threat to them. I fully expect the Guns to pick up the win (and their first reign as TNA Tag Champs) in this match.

Matt Morgan vs. Hernandez (Steel Cage Match)
What I want to happen: I would like to see Hernandez get revenge for everything Morgan has done to him over the past few months.
My Prediction: Hernandez picks up the win, but it’s not going to be an easy match. Look for Morgan to pull out all the stops, but also look for Hernandez to overcome the odds and gain the victory.

Ric Flair vs. Jay Lethal
What I want to happen: I’d like to see Lethal pick up the win.
My Prediction: This is in some ways hard to predict. I fully expect this to be a tough match, but I also expect that Lethal will pick up the win in the end. The only real question is whether Lethal gains a clean victory over Flair or picks up a DQ victory due to Flair’s tactics or outside interference.

Madison Rayne vs. Angelina Love: TNA Knockouts Championship (Title vs. Career)
What I want to happen: I want Angelina to pick up the win and her 4th Knockouts Championship reign.
My Prediction: At this point, with all that’s been placed on this match, Angelina is pretty much guaranteed to take home the title. The real question here is whether it will be by victory or because Velvet or Lacey interferes. I honestly see her picking up the pinfall victory in this match.

Brother Devon vs. Brother Ray vs. Jesse Neal
What I want to happen: I’d really like to see Jesse Neal pick up the win in this match to solidify him as a big performer.
My Prediction: Brother Ray is at a disadvantage in this match. Eventually it will likely come down to true triple threat rules, but as it starts, I’d expect it to be Brother Devon and Jesse Neal teaming up against Ray. In the end, this match is hard to predict, but for some reason I see Devon picking up the win.

A.J. Styles and Kazarian vs. TBA
What I want to happen: As I don’t know who A.J. and Kaz will be facing, it’s hard to determine who I’d like to win. I honestly like A.J. and Kaz being paired up as a team because I think they could do really well, but depending on whom their opponents are revealed to be, I can’t say for sure that I definitely want A.J. and Kaz to win.
My Prediction: As I already said, I think A.J. and Kaz are a good pairing. It’s hard to say for sure what the outcome of this match will be, but I expect A.J. and Kaz to find a way to work together and pick up the win.

Kurt Angle vs. D’Angelo Dinero
What I want to happen: I’m honestly a big fan of both Angle and the Pope. Despite this, it’s not hard to pick sides in this one as Angle has said that if he loses he will leave TNA.
My Prediction: This match is easy to predict. As much as I like the Pope, with Angle saying he will leave if he loses, he’s pretty much guaranteed to pick up the win in this match.

Rob Van Dam vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Mr. Anderson vs. Abyss: TNA World Heavyweight Championship
What I want to happen: It really doesn’t matter to me too much who picks up the win. Despite his recent behavior, I wouldn’t even mind Abyss winning as I think another title reign for the “Monster” could be great, especially with his current aggressiveness. As far as I’m concerned, whoever wins has the capability to be a great champion.
My Prediction: I see RVD picking up in the win and proving that just because a fatal four way match doesn’t favor the champion, he still has a chance to retain his title.

IMPACT 7/8/10

Impact opens with Mr. Anderson coming out to the ring. He invites Jeff Hardy to join him in the ring. Anderson says that his hitting Jeff with the chair last week wasn’t on purpose. He says that if it had been on purpose he’d be bragging about it. Anderson says that he and Hardy have a match tonight. He says he’ll bring the chair to the ring. He says if he uses it, Jeff will know he has a problem with Anderson. Anderson says if Jeff uses it, he probably will have deserved it, but he’ll know he has a problem with Jeff.

In the back, AJ is talking about having to face Kazarian tonight.

Kazarian vs. AJ Styles is tonight’s opening match. AJ goes after Kazarian as soon as he hits the ring. Kaz and AJ catch each other with a series of arm drags.

AJ hits a clothesline in the corner and goes for a suplex, but Kaz counters and hits a slingshot leg drop for a 2 count. Kaz sets up AJ in the corner and goes for the Flux Capacitor, but AJ fights him off. AJ goes for a springboard move and Kaz avoids it, but AJ hits the Pelé kick on Kaz. AJ goes out to the apron, but Kaz nails him with a kick. Kaz hits a slingshot DDT onto the apron. AJ and Kaz continue to fight on the floor. They try to get back into the ring before 10, but fail to beat the count and this match ends in a double count out.

Move of the Match: There were a number of impressive moves, but I think I have to give this to the slingshot DDT from Kaz.

After the match, the two continue fighting until Flair comes in and breaks them up. He says they’re two of the best wrestlers alive. He tells them he got them a match at Victory Road. He tells them they’ll be a team, but doesn’t say who their opponents will be.
