A Painful Truth: Raw Report for 06/22/09

Introduction:
What better way to welcome in the era of Donald Trump than with a new RAW reporter?!

Thats right folks, I’ve taken over RAW reports from Curtis Kash.

Last week’s article was jam packed, so I couldn’t write this or an ending, so I apologise.

I’ve taken on board the criticism I got last week, so hopefully today’s article will be a little better!

On with the show!

Show Recap:
We start the show with a quick Recap of the Three for all Raw, a quick video showing the results of the Fatal 4 way, Vince selling Monday Night Raw and the announcement of the 10 man battle royale, Triple H winning the battle royale, and the announcement of the Last Man Standing match this week.

We see Donald Trump in the first promo of the night, introduced as the new owner of Monday Night Raw. He starts off with talking about how tonight is commercial free, and then announces that all ticket prices will be repaid, to a huge pop from the fans. Trump heads backstage, and we’re then greeted by John Cena’s entrance music. He says his hat is off to Donald Trump, and he praises each of his decisions so far, especially the refund. He then talks about The Miz, and how he’s been insulting him for the last few weeks, showing us a quick video recap. He calls out The Miz, and they exchange hostile words, before Cena announces a main event match between him and The Miz for The Bash! The promo continues with Cena ranting, and The Miz is eventually called A WWE has-been.  Miz hits Cena, and the Miz turns and runs to the back.

Next, a quick video of Vince shouting at a Limo driver, from earlier on, as his limo has broken down.

Match 1: Six man tag Match – Jeff Hardy, The Great Khali and Rey Mysterio Vs. Chris Jericho, Dolph Ziggler and Edge W/ Cm Punk at Ringside
Khali dominates at the start, throwing all three of the opposing team out, for Jeff Hardy to fly over the ropes and take them all down. Rey follows suit, going off the top of Khali and taking the three down again! The match continues, and after a tag Jericho faces off against Rey. With an enzugiri, Rey puts Jericho on the ropes but Edge blocks the 619. Rey is attacked in the corner, with some quick tags, but a quick kick to Edge’s head and he tags in Jeff, who gets a nice series of moves in against Ziggler, but Edge stops him with a spear. Khali tries to get Edge with the Punjabi Plunge, but Edge avoids it. Jericho doesn’t connect with the codebreaker, but a spear takes Khali down! Rey sets up for a double 619 on Edge and Jericho, but Jericho slips to the outside, leaving only Edge to be hit by it. A quick springboard off the ropes from Rey, and he takes Jericho own on the outside. Back in the ring, Hardy hits the twist of fate/swanton bomb combo, and gets the three count!
The winners are: Jeff Hardy, The Great Khali and Rey Mysterio!
