March Week 1, Year 5

WrestleMania is now four weeks away. I can't believe it.

Raw
Match 1. The Usos vs. Slater and Otunga

Match 2. Ted DiBiase vs. Daniel Bryan
Bryan locked DiBiase in a couple of submission holds, but he broke out. Ted locked Bryan in a single-leg Boston Crab and landed a sit-out spine buster. Bryan caught Ted in a roll-up, but got a two count. DiBiase hit a float-over neck breaker and won.

Match 3. Zack Ryder vs. Ryback w/ Wade Barrett
Ryback landed a clubbing blow across Ryder's chest and then a tilt-a-whirl slam. Ryder hit a neck breaker and a lifted reverse DDT. He shook off a belly-to-belly suplex and hit the Zack Attack to win.

After the match, Ryback shook Ryder's hand.

Match 4. Batista vs. Sheamus

Main Event. The Rock and Cody Rhodes vs. John Cena and Chris Jericho
Rock and Cena were caught in a pinning battle in the early going. Rock countered Cena's pin into a backslide pin and won. It was over in less than a minute.

SmackDown
Match 1. Dolph Ziggler vs. Rey Mysterio
During the match, this huge guy ran and attacked Mysterio. That's Ziggler's heavy, Big E. Langston.

Match 2. Sin Cara vs. Tensai

Match 3. Kane and Daniel Bryan vs. Jack Swagger and Antonio Cesaro
The four battled on the outside for a few. Swagger speared Kane through the barricade. Kane and Bryan hit Swagger with a double back elbow. Barrett ran down and hit Kane with Wasteland. Cesaro hit Bryan with the Neutralizer. Bryan hit Swagger with a snapmare and Kane connected with a dropkick to win.

Match 4. Edge vs. ???
Who is Edge's opponent? It's the Undertaker! He's baaaack. Edge attacked Taker from behind on the ramp. Taker connected with a boot in the corner and a back body drop. Taker lifted Edge up for a Tombstone, but Edge kicked out. Taker then locked Edge in a reverse chin lock and won.

After the match, CM Punk came out and stared down Undertaker.

Main Event. Mark Henry vs. CM Punk
Punk wanted to end this match quick with a few roll-ups. Henry landed two tilt-a-whirl slams. Punk landed thunderous kicks to the thighs, forcing Henry to favor his left leg. Henry lifted Punk up and locked in a bear hug. Henry finished Punk with a huge body slam and won.

Recap: Ryder got a huge win. Ziggler is building up a nice little group around him. Is Punk challenging Taker?
