The PPV opened with a montage of WWE superstars acting like voting tonight wasn't important, then changing their minds when they "realize" it controls their future.

WWE Intercontinental Championship Match
Intercontinental Champion Santino Marella vs. the fan's choice of Roddy Piper, Honky Tonk Man or Goldust.

Santino Marella came out to cut a promo, and mentioned Shaquille O'Neal, who was seated at ringside. Santino "realized" he was there, and moved on with his promo, which centered on athletic "has beens".

Honky Tonk Man won with 35%. Roddy Piper had 24% and Goldust had 31%. Piper shook Honky's man for winning the vote. Honky came out, no Jimmy Hart, and took the mic. Honky cut a promo on Santino saying Santino can't sing or dance like the Honky Tonk Man. Honky said Santino could be champion for ten years, and still not be as great as the Honky Tonk Man. Honky then danced, then Santino danced, and hit Honky with a cheap shot. They locked up, and Santino backed Honky into a corner, but Honky reversed out of it. Honky put Santino in a side headlock and hit a right hand. Honky grabbed another headlock, then hit a shoulderblock. Beth Phoenix, from ringside, tripped Honky Tonk, but the referee saw it and disqualified Santino at the less-than-one-minute mark.

Winner via disqualification: Honky Tonk Man.


Santino Marella screamed at Beth Phoenix for costing him the match on this "important" Pay-per-view. As Santino and Beth went to leave, Goldust's music hit and he came out. Then Piper's music hit, and he came out, to a pop. Piper spat his gum at Marella. Marella ran back into the ring to avoid them, and was soon trapped between all three veterans. Goldust gave him a gourdbuster, Piper gave him a series of punches, and Honky Tonk gave Santino the Shake, Rattle, N' Roll neckbreaker. Honky Tonk man slipped, I think on Goldust's wig, as he got up.

The history leading to Big Show vs. Undertaker was shown. Chavo Guerrero wheeled out Vickie Guerrero to announce the winning stipulation for the Big Show-Undertaker match.


The Undertaker vs. Big Show with the fan's choice of a Knockout Match, an I Quit match or a Last Man Standing match.

Last Man Standing scored 49%, I Quit got 42%, and Knockout match got 9%. Vickie said the I Quit match won, but that appeared to be a miscue of some kind, as she then read down all the choices, then announced Last Man Standing as the winner (which we already knew since the graphic was already up).

Undertaker entered first, then Big Show entered, smiling. They threw punches at the start, with Undertaker connecting and putting Show against the ropes. Taker went for a whip, but Show sent him over the top rope and to the floor. Show followed him out, and they threw punches again, with Show hitting some body blows before headbutting Undertaker.

Show stumbled back towards the ring and crawled in. Undertaker got in and hit two avalanches in the corner. Show reversed a whip, but ran into an Undertaker boot.

Undertaker was getting up at seven when Show stomped Undertaker down, kicking him from the ring.

Big Show put Undertaker up against the ringpost, but missed with a chairshot. Undertaker hit some punches, then put the chair under Show's chin and rammed it into the ringpost. Show went down in a heap at ringside, and the referee got up to eight before Show was up. Show went to crawl back into the ring, but Undertaker punched him and kicked him in the face. Undertaker hit a forearm to the chest, then hit the ring apron legdrop. Show crawled into the ring. Undertaker hit some punches and kicked at Show's leg. Big Show blocked another whip attempt and hit a short arm clothesline. Both men were down on the mat, with Show up at five and Undertaker getting up at eight. Show headbutted Undertaker, then hit a series of punches and kicks to the gut. Taker dared Show to hit more, and Show headbutted Taker twice. They traded punches and headbutts, then Show hit more body shots. Taker hit some unanswered punches, but Show hit a knee to the gut, then headbutted Taker into the ropes.

Undertaker hit a series of punches, ducked a clothesline by Show, and went for a chokeslam. Show grabbed his own guzzle, knocked Taker's hand away and went for the chokeslam, but Undertaker turned it into a DDT. Show was down for a nine count. Undertaker started throwing punches, but paused due to being winded while Show tried to pull off a turnbuckle pad. It didn't come off, so Show headbutted Undertaker, went to another corner and pulled off the pad. Show went to slam Undertaker into it, but Taker floated over, shoved Show gut first into the exposed turnbuckle, then hit a clothesline. Show got up at nine. Undertaker charged for a kick, but Show moved and Undertaker crotched himself on the top rope, then fell to the floor.

Show came outside and rammed Undertaker into the ring steps. Show hit some body blows, then rammed Undertaker into the Raw announce table. Big Show grabbed a TV monitor and hit Undertaker in the face with it. Show kicked Undertaker over the security wall and into the crowd. Show grabbed a steel chair and approached Undertaker, but Taker punched the chair into Show's face. Undertaker began to climb over the security wall, but Show grabbed Undertaker, pulling him up onto the security wall, then chokeslamming him through the ECW announce table. Undertaker got up at the nine count, barely getting his knee off the ground on what Jim Ross called "a long nine". Undertaker slumped back down, and Big Show approached him. Undertaker threw some punches that had no effect, and Big Show headbutted him. Big Show sent Undertaker back into the ring, and Undertaker got to his feet. Undertaker threw a punch, but Show slammed a right hand into his side. Show continued with kidney punches, but Undertaker came back with punches to the face. Show responded with more body shots, then went for a backdrop and Undertaker counted with a DDT.

Both men were down. Undertaker sat up. Both men were slow to their feet, and Undertaker went for the rope walk. Undertaker jumped off for the forearm, but Big Show caught him by the throat and hit a chokeslam. Undertaker was down for a nine count, and Show called for a chokeslam, then instead clenched his fist. Big Show hit a straight right hand to the face, decking the Undertaker. Taker appeared out cold, but sat up at the eight count, then got his knees off the mat at nine, and slumped against the ropes. Big Show grabbed a chair and blasted Undertaker in the head with it. Big Show then pulled Undertaker up, teasing the jackhammer punch, but Undertaker grabbed the gogoplata (Jim Ross called it the "Death Valley Vice", so maybe it has a name now). Show tapped like crazy, but the match can't be stopped on a tapout. Undertaker released the hold, and Show seemed to be out cold. The referee counted, and Undertaker got to his feet just at the ten count to be declared the winner at the twenty minute mark. Undertaker then slumped down in the corner.

Winner: The Undertaker.


After the match
They showed Chavo Guerrero wheeling Vickie away from the Cyber Sunday Control Center. Big Show eventually rolled out of the ring, clutching his throat as he walked off. A tired Undertaker stood up, then posed in the center of the ring.


Backstage
Chris Jericho pleaded his case to Raw General Manager Mike Adamle, saying he had no chance of retaining his championship if the referee stipulation stood. Jericho tried to intimidate Adamle, who wouldn't back down. Suddenly, Jericho looked at his phone, then said he and Adamle would discuss it later and walked off.


A WWE Diva Halloween Costume contest

Tazz announced that voting in the Halloween Costume contest was over, and brought out all the Divas in their outfits. After a really long drum roll, Mickie James, who was dressed as Tomb Raider, won. Then a huge brawl broke out with all the Divas. The heel Divas were all thrown out of the ring, and the babyface Divas were left standing.


Winner: Mickie James.

Winner and new World Champion: Batista


Austin toasted Batista with a beer to end the show

Thank goodness Shelton won, R-Truth is a piece of garbage.

So far:
Benjamin v. Truth sucked
Mysterio v. Kane sucked
Hardy v. Sydal was good

Honestly, Hardy/Sydal was the only match I was expecting to be good. Lets hope WWE SOMEHOW manages to prove me wrong and have GOOD MATCHES FOR ONCE. I'm only watching this cause I have a rigged cable box that gets PPV for free. If it weren't for that I wouldn't watch any WWE ppvs.

WWE = bland

Mickie was soo hot

I was about to hate on WWE so bad for Goldust not being out in the ring, but luckily they were smart and had him come out... I hope Goldust is back...

^ I hinted you to watch :shifty: It's true goldust is the best of the 3.

Yes Taker Won

This pay-per-view is actually good thus far. Best I've seen in quite a while.

sonomagun! i just realized santino lost me 1,000,000 dollars :( Bastard.. well at least i know hhh and jericho will defenitely win (most likely they will)... So far the ppv is ok/slightly above ok.

I don't see why you're all so high on Goldust, he's nothin special besides the way he dresses like a woman. :shock:

Goldust would have put on the best show because he hasn't spent as much time away from the ring. Piper and Honky Tonk are older and would easily have ring rust, and I don't think either of them took much time to sharpen their skills or get in better shape.

I think Goldust would have been far more entertaining, havent we seen enough of Piper for awhile ... I just think Santino/Goldust would have been hilarious

Well, it was an overall decent show. I thought most of the matches were at least decent, none of them were really bad. The tag match wasn't great, and Mysterio and Kane wasn't either, but they weren't too bad, and other than that most of the matches were quite good. Best WWE PPV I've seen in awhile. Much better than No Mercy. I was very disappointed Batista beat Jericho though.

Too bad that Killings lost. Batista won :( Now ll never watch RAW again. No Punk either:(

lol, i told u so tat Goldust wont be chosen and will come out after the match... lol, and Batista won, WTF!? damn, now a Batista vs. Cena feud... gonna suck... an average PPV overall

yes Batishta won
