WWE Champion Edge’s music played and he came out to the ring. He announced to the crowd that the “Champ was here” and pointed out that the former champion John Cena wasn’t. He said he was going to tell us all a little story. It was about a champion, himself. He said he was stressed that he had to defend his title at Summerslam against Cena and that he could lose the title by DQ and face him on his home turf in Boston as well as defend the belt against Carlito tonight on Raw.
He said he needed to de-stress and took a trip to West Newbury, MA. He had a film of his visit. The first shot was of Cena’s house. They went around to the different rooms in Cena’s boyhood home and Edge and Lita touring the area. Cena’s father came in and confronted the champion. Edge made fun of the conversation before telling us what the real conversation was all about. He said he was going to beat Cena to within an inch of his life on Sunday. He showed us the rest of the film before smacking Cena’s father. Edge walked over the couch and out the door. Edge kept showing the clip over and over again.
The crowd was booing loudly. Edge made fun of Cena who he said was home consoling his father. He said the real John Cena v. Edge story was about to be told. He recapped their history together recapping his MITB ladder match win, his first title win, the live sex story, his losing the title at the Royal Rumble, Edge winning the WWE for the second time, and that chapter five was written right now as Cena was tending to his father whom he ‘bitch smacked’. He said the final chapter would take place on Sunday when he would get the happy ending.
JR was quick to point out that his match tonight with Carlito was a non-title match. Lita will challenge for the WWE Women’s Championship next!

WWE Women’s Championship
Mickie James v. Lita
Mickie got a major league pop coming out in front of her home crowd. The two locked up in the middle of the ring before Lita clamped in a headlock. Lita hit a nice head scissors before collecting the champion and mashing her head into the turnbuckles. She pummeled the women’s champion into the corner and monkey flipped her out.
James snapped and mounted Lita, nailing her with right hands. Mickie slapped her hard twice before ducking under a clothesline attempt and hitting a clothesline. James went to the top rope but was quickly slammed to the canvas. Lita yanked at Mickie’s hair and choked her out on the bottom rope. Mickie fought back but the comeback was cut short as Lita hit a Russian leg sweep. Lita went for a cover after some right hands and got a two count.
Lita pressed the advantage, stretching Mickie’s back before Mickie hit a nifty kick to break the hold. Mickie hit some vicious back elbows before having an Irish whip attempt reversed. Mickie caught Lita with a back elbow and hit a hurricanranna before clotheslining Lita again and getting a near fall. Lita fought back with a thumb to the eye and a stiff elbow to the face. Lita went for an impailer DDT but Mickie brushed her off and rolled her up with her feet on the ropes, but Edge pushed them off.
Lita went for a roll up of her own and cheated as well but was caught by the referee. Lita protested and Mickie got a 2 ¾ count on the attempt. Mickie set up for her DDT but Edge jumped up on the apron as Lita kicked out of the hold. Lita grabbed the Women’s title belt and cracked Mickie with the belt and made the quick cover for the win.
Winner and NEW WWE Women’s Champion: Lita
Lita and Edge celebrated and headed up the ramp as JR and King bemoaned how cheap the win was.

Mick Foley was in the back and congratulated Lita on winning her championship. He said that fact only made him slightly better because he was upset most of the last week, especially at himself. He said he had been dealing at the ultimate position of strength and he ceded his hand to Ric Flair by granting him a match at Summerslam. He said this summer, he would take part in the complete destruction of Ric Flair and that made him feel better.
He said in 10 years he had only been busted open four times and that Flair was an easy bleeder. He said this Sunday Flair would wallow in his own blood again just like he did at Vengeance. He said tomorrow night he’d be competing in an event at ECW and invited Flair. He said tonight, he was going to watch Melina cheer her man on to victory against Ric Flair. He said he would she Flair tomorrow night at ECW “You washed up piece of crap”.
Umaga v. Alex Sage
Sage got splashed right off the bat before getting mauled with a clothesline. Umaga hit his elevated Samoan drop and then connected with a brutal bump butt. Estrada signaled for the end of the match and Umaga obliged, hitting his big spike to the throat and getting the cover for the win.
Winner: Umaga via pin fall

Flair again fought back with chops before tossing Nitro off the ropes and hitting a back elbow. Flair whipped the champion to the buckles before getting caught with a back elbow. Nitro capitalized and hit a body slam before going for a cork screw moonsault that missed completely.
Flair chop blocked Nitro before Mick Foley hit the ring.
Winner: Ric Flair via DQ
Melina jumped in and hit a low blow, which incapacitated Flair. Foley flung Flair into the ring steps before mounting his head on the ring steps and almost squashing it with the upper set of stairs. Flair rolled out of the way just in time. Foley hit some elbows to Flair’s head before telling him he’d see him on Sunday.

The Night was not over for these ladies however. This summer was very hot and they would get cooled down a bit in a water fight with three WWE Raw Divas.

Jess just tossed an entire water bucket. Torrie gave an inverted corkscrew balloon twist. Candice just showed her boobies, well sort of, and Victoria got pissed at a water gun. JT fell down and Leyla cowered.
Miz cut the clock. The crowd seemed very over for the Diva search girls but the competition was awarded to the WWE Divas. Miz got soaked.

Degeneration X’s music hit and Triple H and HBK came out to the ring.
Triple H got on the mic and did the usual schpeel. HBK climbed on the mic next and said that the last couple of weeks had been a bit rough for DX. He said other than the opportunity to witness a few prison inmates and practice his ministry, it hasn’t been all that bad. He said Vince and Shane had forgotten one very important thing about them. He said there were two things that had separated Triple H and HBK from everyone else in wrestling.
He said the first was their doing whatever they wanted whenever they wanted. He said they had a tendency to focus on Vince McMahon’s appetite for “cock” a doodle doo. Triple H went to talk about that second thing before Shane McMahon’s music hit.
Shane came out to the ramp and was followed by his father who was accompanied by an entire police force, which stood behind him. Shane said HBK was right that they were known for doing two things, the first being sophomoric pranks and the second, being taken out by Vince and himself. He said he needed to refresh our memories.
A video aired putting over the events of the last two weeks. DX stood stoic in the ring.
Vince said Summerslam was the party of the summer and after it was over, they’d be partying down. He said he regretted to inform them that their party was over. He said individually and collectively they made a big name for themselves talking about DX and whatnot. He said the biggest name in the history of this business was his own, McMahon. He said as they stood in the ring, they needed to figure out what their resources were. He said not only did the McMahons have each other like DX, they had endless resources, wrestlers, cops, and even the national guard. He said at Summerslam they would bring the wrath of Satan down upon them. He said there was no chance in hell of them winning.
Triple H cut him off and mocked him a bit. He said he didn’t know if it was his Alzheimer’s or if he was just stupid. He needed to remind them who they were. He said they were the HeartBreak Kid, The Showstopper, the Game, the Cerebral Assassin, and the King of Kings. He said together they were his worst nightmare. He said they were DX and at Summerslam they would kick their asses. He said they could bring whomever they wanted, they didn’t care. They didn’t care about anyone from the street or the 82nd Airborne. He said if they brought Satan himself they’d look him right in his eye and spit in his face and tell him the exact same thing they were going to tell him, which was ‘suck it’.
The cameras were waiting for the arrival of Hulk Hogan in the back.

The Hogan-Orton confrontation is next!
****Commercial****
A video replay aired of Cena assaulting WWE Champion Edge.
Randy Orton’s music hit and he came out to the ring.
Orton got on the mic and said that he had waited all night and had given Hulk Hogan plenty of time to come and face him like a mad. He asked where he was. He said if one word could describe Hogan’s reasoning for not showing up tonight was ‘smart’. He said Hogan knew that the same thing would happen to Hogan that has happened to every other legend he’s faced.
The Legend Killer video aired again.
Orton said he had a secret for him. He said Hogan was the inspiration for him becoming the Legend Killer time and again, the same old tired act, etc. He said he just didn’t get it. Orton said he told himself back then that he would be the man who killed Hulkamania, the man who would destroy it for good and forever. He said it was obvious that he was looking forward to Summerslam for a long time. He said this Sunday he’d kill the biggest legend that there ever was. He told Hogan to ask himself whether or not he wanted Hulkamania to end this way and that all it would take would be one RKO.
Hogan’s music hit and a Hogan impersonator came down to the ring. The imposter cupped his ear for the crowd as he hobbled around the ring. The imposter got on the mic and told Orton that he was right that he’d kill Hulkamania. He said it wasn’t because he was the legend killer, it was because he got a bad knee from a couch accident. He said he was really tired and that he was a Jr. Senior Citizen. He asked Orton what he was going to do when he soiled himself in the ring all over him.
Hogan’s music hit again and he came out and this time the real Hulk Hogan came out to the ramp. Hogan came into the ring and Orton began to stomp away on Hogan but Hogan wasn’t having it. He hit Orton three times and booted Orton out of the ring. Hogan’s imposter hit Hulk and that was a mistake. Hogan nailed the imposter and body slammed him. Hogan repeatedly elbow dropped him and unloaded on him with more punches. Hogan tossed the imposter out of the ring and got on the mic.
He said that Orton could joke all he wanted. He said when he insulted Hogan and his family in front of all these people, the joke would be over. He said come this Sunday, Hulkamania would be at Summerslam. Hogan said he was glad Orton was pumped up and on his game. He said there was no way Orton could kill his legend. He said he had one question for him. He asked him what he was gonna do when the power of all the millions of Hulkamanics run wild on him.
