Raw Result - March 30th 2009
Eight Man Battle Royal: Participants-CM Punk, Kane, Mark Henry, Christian, Montel Vontavious Porter, Shelton Benjamin, Kofi Kingston, Finlay


Bet you couldn't guess, but it's a big brawl to start. Finlay avoids a press slam, but gets tossed by Henry anyway. Hornswoggle provides a distraction to Henry, and that allows everyone to toss him. Punk gets Christian nearly out, and Kane tries to dump both to no avail. Everyone but Shelton and MVP team up on Kane in the corner, but he fights them off. Shelton throws MVP to the apron, and MVP then tries to suplex Shelton the floor. He gets him to the apron with him, and Kane delivers a clothesline sending both to the floor. That leaves Christian, Punk, and Kofi with Kane and they team up on him. Kane kicks off everone in the corner, and Punk tosses Kofi. He takes a minute to mock him, and gets an uppercut from Kane. Kane dumps Christian to the apron, but he slides back in. Both Christian, and Punk team up on Kane, but Christian double crosses and tries to throw out Punk. Punk comes back with a knee, and goes for the bulldog. Christian counters and fires Punk onto the apron, but turns into Kane who press slams him over the top taking out Punk in the process and giving him the win at 3:38. After the match Kane grabs the ladder and poses with the briefcase.
Winner: Kane (Last eliminating Punk & Christian simultaneously *)

3/29 WWE in Wichita Falls, Tex
U.S. champion MVP beat Shelton Benjamin to retain the United States Championship. Benjamin gave away the ending by cutting pre-match promo saying that he was going to take "his" U.S. championship back to the Money in the Bank match at WrestleMania. MVP came out to a decent pop, and cut a promo of his own asking why Shelton was so angry. "Is it because he lost 'my' United States championship, or is it because his hairdresser messed his hair up?" That got quite a few chuckles.


This match was decent length and would've been solid on the actual TV program. Benjamin went for Paydirt almost from the get-go, but MVP pushed him off into the turnbuckle. The problem with that move is that if it's countered that way, it looks like a blown spot. Anyway, the match spilled to the outside early, with MVP getting the best of Benjamin until Benjy reversed a whip to send MVP into the steel steps.


Back in the ring, several rest holds were utilized to draw it out a little, with Benjamin having the upper hand most of the time working on MVP's back. MVP made a monster comeback after about a 10-minute beat down and even hit Benjamin with his "Ballin'" elbow. Finish came when MVP nailed Benjamin off the turnbuckle with a big boot to the face and followed it up with the Playmaker for the win. Both guys put on a great display of intensity and athleticism.

Superstars' Money in the Bank statements
While some new "Bankers" are counting on their sheer power to carry them into the "promised land," Money in the Bank veteran Shelton Benjamin has already learned the dance, and simply wants to get back to the stage to execute his moves. The Gold Standard has competed in more Money in the Bank Ladder Matches at WrestleMania than any other Superstar, and has been responsible for some of the most unbelievable moments in those matches. At the 25th Anniversary of WrestleMania, what will the former United States Champion do with his lofty experience?


“Ever since I qualified for Money in the Bank, people have been asking me, ‘Shelton, what are you going to do to top your last three Money in the Bank appearances?’ And the more I think about it, there is only one thing I can do to top what I have already done: Win.”

3/13 WWE SMACKDOWN HOUSE SHOW REPORT FROM COLLEGE STATION, TX
WWE UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP: Shelton Benjamin defeated MVP and Chavo Guerrero in a Triple Threat Match.
Chavo entered first to a mixed reaction. The Latinos in the audience were cheering him, while everyone else was booing him. MVP came out surprisingly to very little reaction. I guess some people were not aware that he has turned babyface yet. Benjamin came out to mostly boos. Chavo slid out of the ring, and sat in the chair next to Roberts, and motioned for MVP and Benjamin to fight each other. MVP had his back turned and Chavo slipped in and tried to roll him up for a quick pin, but MVP kicked out. Chavo then jumped out of the ring and went back to his seat. The match alternated with Chavo coming in to fight with MVP, while Benjamin rested. MVP was then knocked outside, while Chavo and Benjamin fought. There was actually a "Chavo" chant at one point during the match. As the match went on, more people started to get into MVP. They popped for the Ballin' pose, followed by a double elbow on his opponents. Benjamin won the match by hitting the Paydirt on Chavo. MVP watched as Benjamin left to his music. Chavo got back up and attacked MVP. He tried to whip him in to the ropes, but MVP reversed it and hit a belly to belly suplex on Chavo, who promptly left the ring. MVP then left to a better pop than the one he came in with.

WWE Smackdown House Show Results (3/1/09) - Glen Falls, New York
Match 6: WWE United States Title Match: Shelton Benjamin vs. The Great Khali
MASSIVE pop for Khali, who is just enormous in person. Benjamin hides next to Justin Roberts to start things. Shelton plays the chicken heel for most of the match, ducking out of the ring at every opportunity. Finish comes when Benjamin evades the Khali chokebomb, escapes the ring, and gets himself counted out. Then Chavo(?) comes out and throws Shelton back in to get chokebombed. So apparently Chavo is a face now? Whatever.
