Mr. PPV successfully held off challenges last Friday to extend his double title reign. It was a masterclass performance for him for the night and any future challengers will have their work cut out for them to wrestle away his titles.
First off though, the night kicked off with the announcement that the Women's Championship was declared vacant, in lieu of Xtreme Diva's unavailability to defend the title. It has been speculated in RingSide View that she is somewhere in Borneo although it was inconclusive in deciding just what exactly was she doing there. Surprisingly only 1 woman was around to declare her interest in the Title, former Champion Mickey James, now under a new manager (Asyraq), seemingly frustrated with her former manager's unwillingness to support her title aspirations. Babe of the Year was reported to be making an appearance, but was not around at the beginning of the evening.
Elijah Burke made a bold attempt to dethrone Mr PPV from his heavyweight title but it was clearly a mis-match, as Mr PPV showed that his winning it was no fluke, dispatching Elijah Burke with arrogant superiority.
Ric Flair returned tonight, and with his thirst for a title still unquenched, he took on Eugene for the Spinner Belt. Eugene was clearly in awe of the legendary Nature Boy, and Flair was able to use that to his advantage and Wooooooooo-ed his way to the Title!
It was now clear that Babe of the Year would not be appearing, either for her Intercontinental Challenge, or for the vacant Women's Title. Rumour on the grapevine has it that the Big Freakin' Machine had actually asked her out the night before. Whether or not this is true remains to be seen, but the Big Freakin' Machine spent the entire night near the Announcer's Table with a huge evil smile on his face.
Whatever the case, Mickey James ended up being declared the new Women's Champion, and she celebrated her return to the Title by taking a few pot shots at her former manager.
The Triple Threat Match for the Hardcore Title was quite a nasty affair, particularly for WWE head honcho Vince McMahon. Chris Benoit and The People's Champion did not take to their boss too kindly, and had no insecurity whatsoever about their salaries. Vince was given a beating he would never forget, and it became clear that whatever happened, Vince would not be the one with the title at the end of the day. In the end, a new Title Holder was declared, and it was The People's Champion!
The last match saw The Largest Athlete in Sports Entertainment take on Mr PPV for the European Title. At the start it looked like Mr PPV was going to have his Title taken away from him, as TLAISE was able to get the upper hand early and Mr PPV was on the ropes. Unfortunately, TLAISE could not sustain his momentum, allowing Mr PPV to regroup, and regroup he did. TLAISE was unable to keep up, and the match was soon over for him.
Eyes now turn to the King of the Ring tournament this Friday and Mr PPV will be looking on with great interest, knowing that whoever wins will be eyeing his Heavyweight Title...
