WWE One Night Stand 2008 Results
Stretcher match
Shawn Michaels vs. Batista
A fairly god match. Twice when it appeared that Batista was going to win Jericho came out to urge HBK to get up and at one point even stopped the stretcher from going over the line and knocked Shawn off of it. Batista eventually won. It looks like this may resume the HBK/Y2J feud with the basis being that Shawn wants Jericho to stay out of his business. I should have kept my original pick.
Me: 0/1
Dave: 1/1
Falls Count Anywhere match
Jeff Hardy vs. Umaga
No surprise. Hardy won after giving Umaga a swanton bomb off of the top of a semi (with a giant picture of HBK's face on it) onto the 'concrete' below.
Me: 1/2
Dave: 2/2
First Blood match
John Cena vs. John "Bradshaw" Layfield
At one point Cena was tied up in the ropes and JBL went under the ring and pulled out a whip. While I was hoping that JBL would use it on Cena, I knew it wouldn't happen. Cena managed to kick JBL in the balls, release himself, and put JBL in the STFU using a chain to choke JBL to cause JBL to start spitting up blood.
Me: 2/3
Dave: 3/3
Last Man Standing Match for the WWE Championship
Triple H (c) vs. Randy Orton
I'm pretty sure that the ending was moved up in the match. Orton went for and RKO, but Trips instead threw Orton out of the ring which ended up breaking Orton's collarbone. Orton notified the ref and eventually made to to his feet only to have Trips nail him with a sledgehammer to get the win.
Me: 2/4
Dave: 4/4
Five-Way Singapore Cane Match - The winner of the match will face Kane for the ECW Championship at Night of Champions 2008.
CM Punk vs. John Morrison vs. Chavo Guerrero vs. Tommy Dreamer vs. The Big Show
A good match. End came when Big Show was going to hit someone with the stairs, but ended up falling face first onto them. He was busted open and then went berserk and destroyed everyone and pinned Dreamer to get the win.
Me: 2/5
Dave: 5/5
Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship
The Undertaker vs. Edge - If Undertaker loses, he will have to leave the WWE.
If I didn't know better I would say that this was actually 'Taker's last match since he took some pretty good bumps. The big one was falling off of the top of the ladder (in the ring) and through 4 tables set-up outside the ring. Edge wins and Undertaker is gone from the WWE (at least for now).
Me: 3/6
Dave: 6/6
Diva's I Quit Match
Melina v. Beth Phoenix
Probably the best Diva match I have seen in a long time of not ever. This is what Diva matches should be. There was a lot of actually wrestling and not al ot of the simple rules that Diva matches are usually made up of. Melina submitted after almost getting broken in half in one of Phoenix's submission holds.
Me: 3/7
Dave: 6/7
Summary:
I got a sickly 3/7 correct while Dave got 6/7 correct. To be honest Dave picked perfectly among that matches that he submitted picks for - He didn't submit one for the Diva match and since he ALWAYS picks Melina, that's who I used for his pick. I'll be nice and give him credit for perfect picks, but with an asterik.
