January Week 2, Year 2

Last week was good. I wonder what X-Pac had to gain from the triple threat.

Raw
Match 1. Edge vs. Goldust

Match 2. Godfather vs. Stevie Richards

Match 3. Chris Benoit vs. Val Venis

Match 4. Mankind vs. Triple H
Triple H was methodical in taking apart Mankind. He targeted the legs with a chop block and leg lock. Mankind came back with a neck breaker and Mr. Socko. Triple H kicked out and hit the Pedigree to win.

After the match, Triple H left and Chris Jericho entered and stomped on Mankind. Triple H turned around and beat up Jericho.

Main Event. Undertaker vs. Bubba Ray Dudley
I assume we'll get Kane and D-Von next week. This match went over 27 minutes. Bubba used Undertaker's finishers all match. He hit a chokeslam at the nine-minute mark, but Undertaker kicked out. After a shoulder breaker, Bubba hit Undertaker with the Tombstone and won.

SmackDown
Match 1. Rhyno vs. Scotty 2 Hotty

Match 2. Molly Holly vs. Lita

Match 3. New Age Outlaws vs. The APA
Shawn Michaels walked down with a chair. Bradshaw powerbombed Billy Gunn through the announce table. Gunn made it back into the ring and hit two Fame-Assers. Michaels and Faarooq were fighting on the outside. Bradshaw kept Road Dogg from coming back in the ring and the ref counted him out.

Match 4. Chris Benoit vs. Shawn Michaels
Michaels was walking to the ring when Kurt Angle attacked him from behind. Benoit rolled Michaels up in a pin and the two were engaged in a pinning battle, getting many near falls. Michaels was in control when Benoit locked in the crossface. Michaels broke out, but Benoit hit him with a clothesline and won.

After the match, Mark Henry attacked Benoit with a pipe.

Main Event. The Rock vs. Chris Jericho
Rock was dominating Jericho. He landed a knee smash and a spine buster. After Jericho kicked out, he landed the Rock Bottom. Rock continued with a Samoan drop and another spine buster. Somehow, Jericho got up and locked in the Walls of Jericho. Jericho broke out of an abdominal stretch and got the win.

Saturday Night Heat
Match 1. Godfather vs. Hardcore Holly

Match 2. Stevie Richards vs. Matt Hardy

Match 3. Rhyno vs. Jeff Hardy

Match 4. Scotty 2 Hotty vs. Raven

Main Event. Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels


Recap: What's going on with Jericho and Triple H? Jericho picked up a huge win against The Rock. I like the Angle/Michaels and Benoit/Henry feuds.
