WWE RAW 2/26/07 Live Coverage

Here I am once again with live coverage of RAW. The "Holy Crap!" segment of the night, which was started last week on ECW, will now be a new and improved feature to my coverage.



Video of Trump and McMahon starts out the show again.

HBK and Cena vs. Rated RKO for the Tag Titles start out the show. This was a surprise. Orton and Edge show up on the Titantron. Orton says they're not ready until later tonight and sow seeds of doubt by showing some video of HBK turning on other people over the years. Interesting video package that I hope to see again, possibly at Wrestlemania.

Commercial break.

Another video of Mick doing what he does best.

Money in the Bank Qualifying match with Jeff Hardy taking on Shelton Benjamin. Lillian runs down the rules of the WM Ladder match then does some announcing of the wrestlers like they do in MMA. Shelton with a couple nearfalls to start out. Hardy now in control with a nearfall. Mule kick from Hardy sends Shelton to the outside. He then rides the rails and clotheslines him then sends Shelton back in. Whisper in the Wind but Hardy takes too much time which allows Shelton to jump up and belly to belly suplex Hardy clear across the ring.

Commercial break.

Shelton still in control and gets a nearfall. Shelton slips when he tries to leap on the top rope and Hardy capitalizes to get the Swanton for the win. Vince appears on the Titantron to interrupt Jeff's victory celebration and talks more about his match.

Commercial break.

The "Holy Crap!" segment of the night goes to another video of Ashley's Playboy shoot. Backstage with Melina and Nitro. Melina runs down Ashley then talks about her match tonight with Maria but Nitro tells her to shut up.

Nitro vs. Super Crazy is up now. Nitro takes the fight to Super Crazy on the outside. He throws Super Crazy's shoulder into the steel steps then walks off.

Commercial break.

Melina and Maria are up now. Maria with a nearfall but misses a dropkick. Melina with another unique submission and a nearfall. Melina with a Camel Clutch! Insert your own Sheiky joke here. Maria gets a close nearfall. Maria spends too much time showboating and Melina takes advantage for the win.

Commercial break.

Vince McMahon is coming to the ring. Vince blabbers on for a few minutes then Trump appears on the Titantron. He says that Umaga needs to be tamed and the man to that is Bobby Lashley. Vince now calls for security guards and refs to make sure Lashley and Umaga don't go at it but it doesn't work of course.

Commercial break.

The Great Khali is now taking the Masterlock Challenge. Who did Master's piss off? Master's can't make the hand meet. Kane is out! He chokeslams Masters, clotheslines Khali to the outside then clobbers Masters in the head with a chair.

Backstage with Vince and Coach. Vince gets a call from a member of the board saying he's going to take a suggestion to the entire board for a special ref in the Umaga/Lashley match.

Commercial break.

The next Inductee for the 2007 WWE Hall of Fame is Jerry "The King" Lawler! Another awesome video.

They do the short version of the HBK video from earlier in the night.

Carlito comes out for a match as we go to commercial.

His oppnent for tonight is Kenny who doesn't even get an intro. Kenny called Carlito Flair's flunkie during the break. One man Flapjack gets Carlito 2. Carlito misses a springboard move and Kenny takes control. Nearfall by Kenny. Carlito tries to fight back but a knee to the gut and gets a nearfall. Carlito fights out of an Abdominal stretch and hits a springboard reverse elbow for a nearfall. Kenny hits a sitout powerbomb for 2. Kenny runs at Carlito in the corner but he moves and Kenny stradles himself on the middle turnbuckle and hits the backcracker for the win.

Backstage with Vince and Coach again. Vince is going to be on ECW tomorrow night.

Commercial break.

Main Event time. I would like take this time during the entrances to applaud WWE. What they did at the start of the show was pure genius. I thought I had seen everything but it's nice to be surprised once in a while. I would also like to say I love that HBK video. It was an excellent way to put some doubt into Cena about if he could trust Michaels. Edge and HBK start. Edge lit up by chops but Edge elbows him and tags Orton. Cena now in. Excellent Fisherman Suplex from Cena gets 2. Edge back in. Edge with a field goal kick right into Cena's ribs and tags Orton in. Cena tries to fight back but Orton punches him into the corner and tags Edge. Edge not in long this time and tags Orton back in. Counter by Cena and tags HBK in. Tope rope elbow and Edge tries to interfere but gets taken to the outside. HBK tries to superkick Orton but Orton moves and Cena catches his foot as we go to commercial.

Edge and HBK in the ring. Edge with a nearfall then tags Orton who also gets a nearfall. HBK tries to fight back but Orton gets an inverted atomic drop for 2 then tags Edge. HBK stradles Edge on the ropes and tags Cena. Five Knuckle Shuffle to Orton then tries for an FU but Edge breaks it up and we got a ref bump. Edge tries for a spear but Cena catches him, goes for an FU. Orton tries to hit Cena with a tag title but HBK stops him, takes the belt, hits Edge in the back then hands the title back to Orton. Edge thinks Orton hit him so he walks out on him which allows Cena to get the FU for the pin.
