WWE RAW Results 3.30.09 - Family Matters
In an 18 Divas tag team match, WWE Women’s Champion Melina, Brie Bella, Tiffany, Alicia Fox, Maria, Kelly Kelly, Mickie James, Eve Torres & Gail Kim beat WWE Divas Champion Maryse, Nikki Bella, Beth Phoenix, Rosa Mendes, Jillian Hall, Katie Lea Burchill, Natalya Neidhart, Layla & Michelle McCool when Tiffany pinned Katie Lea. The match barely lasted two minutes and I think only Mickie, Jillian, Beth, Tiffany and Katie Lea were even a part of the match. Quite the waste. After the match Santino Marella came out to show of his mankini but gets attacked by the Divas.
Chris Jericho beat Jerry “The King” Lawler by submission. After the match Jericho hyped up his WrestleMania match against the aging legends.
Rey Mysterio beat Intercontinental Champion JBL in a non-title match. I’m not really sure of the point of giving a WrestleMania match away six days before the event. Wouldn’t it have been more effective to have JBL pay someone like Vladimir Kozlov or Mike Knox take on Mysterio instead?
The Big Show pinned John Cena clean in the middle of the ring with a chokeslam.
Shawn Michaels came out for a “Funeral for Mr. WrestleMania.” He continues his taunting of Undertaker and once again gets away before Undertaker can get a hold of him and ends up dropping The Dead Man with Sweet Chin Music once again.
Kane won an eight-man battle royal featuring the participants of Money in the Bank at WrestleMania XXV. Kane got the last word during ECW last week, won the pinfall during the eight-man tag on last week’s SmackDown and now won this battle royal. It’s pretty safe to say that Kane isn’t winning at WrestleMania.
Order of elimination:
Mark Henry eliminated Finlay
The rest of the participants eliminated Henry
Kane eliminated MVP and Shelton Benjamin
CM Punk eliminated Kofi Kingston
Kane eliminated both Punk and Christian to win the match.
Randy Orton came out to end the show with his “WrestleMania address.” He basically recaps his feud with Triple H before Vince McMahon, Shane McMahon and Triple H make their entrances. The McMahons and Triple H brawl with Orton and Legacy as the show closes. I smell a six-man tag for Backlash.
411, Pulse and wwe have their takes as well.
