[PeoplesChampGB]

Sorry guys for the lack of updates. I am a full time dad, I work full time, and I am a full time student. With work, busy with school this week, and doing my taxes, I haven't had time to finish my Smackdown show. It will definitely be done tomorrow. I appreciate you guy's patience.

Thanks. I have a program that keeps the rankings for me. It is primarily used for Fire Pro but I have adapted it to WWE. Thanks for reading.

Year One/April/Week Three

[John Cena's music starts up and Cena makes his way out of the back to the ring. He climbs in the ring and grabs a microphone. He talks about what happened on Smackdown with the number one contender match for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship.]

John Cena: I came out to make sure that an injustice didn't happen. I took out Triple H, Kane, but then I made a big mistake. I cost Randy Orton the WWE Championship opportunity. I received an RKO for my efforts, and whether that was justified or not, I want Randy Orton to come out so I can make things right.

[Randy Orton's music hits and Orton comes down to the ring and climbs in. He grabs a mic.]

John Cena: I am sorry Randy. I made a mistake hitting Rollins with the AA and costing you the match. I just wanted to apologize in front of all of these fans to you.

Randy Orton: John.......you and I have a lot of history together. We have been allies, we have been enemies. The one thing though that I have never asked you was for help. I had the match under control. I had Rollins beat in the middle of the ring. I took down The Authority's stooge Kane. I would have taken down Triple H as well, had you not came down to try to help. You got me disqualified and for that I do blame you......

[Triple H's music comes over the PA system and Triple H, Kane, and Seth Rollins come out onto the stage.]

Seth Rollins: Orton, you never had me beat because I am the best in the WWE. Last week alone I defeated the two top faces in the company. On RAW I defeated you John Cena when nobody thought I could do it. Then, on Smackdown, I defeated you Randy Orton when nobody thought I could do it. You two losers have fun fighting with each other while I main event Backlash in the WWE World Heavyweight Championship match. I will beat Brock Lesnar. I will walk out as the WWE World Champion. Live with it.

[Triple H talks about how Cena screwed Orton over.]

Triple H: I know if somebody did that to me, I would make sure to get even with them. In fact, I think it would be best for business if Randy Orton fought John Cena tonight!

[Paul Heyman comes over the titantron.]

Paul Heyman: Hunter, too bad you are not in charge anymore. I am. You see, tonight John Cena will not be taking on Randy Orton in one on one competition. Tonight, John Cena and Randy Orton will team up against The Authority's Kane and Seth Rollins. And to make sure nothing funny happens, I am barring all other competitors from ringside!

[Rollins starts having a hissy fit on the stage when he hears this and starts yelling and complaining to Triple H. The Authority walk backstage as John Cena and Randy Orton stare face to face at each other before being separated by WWE referees and officials.]

Match #1: Big Show (c) vs. ??? [Hardcore Championship]

Spoiler

[Big Show comes out and to the ring and grabs a mic.]

Big Show: I am going to make this short and sweet. I am issuing an open challenge to any superstar in the back that wants a death sentence. I am going to put this Hardcore Championship on the line right now. I don't care who it is. If someone is brave enough, come on out and face me.

[Big Show waits in the ring for a couple seconds. R-Truths music comes over the PA system and R-Truth comes out to take on Big Show.]

Match #1: Big Show (c) vs. R-Truth [Hardcore Championship]

Big Show and Truth fought to ringside, with both cracking the other one with a steel chair. Show gets the advantage, press slamming Truth to the ground. Show reaches under the ring and grabs a table. He sets it up and Truth goes face first through the table when Show alley oops him. Show goes for the cover but Truth kicks out. Truth then hits a Harlem sidekick on Show, knocking him down. He then goes to the apron and pulls out a kendo stick. Show gets up and Truth tries to hit him but Show blocks it. Show then grabs Truth by the throat and chokeslams him to the ground. Truth picks his head up and is caught by the WMD. Show stands on truths chest while the referee counts to three.

Winner by Pinfall: Big Show

Afterward Big Show continues assaulting Truth. He grabs the steel steps at ringside and places them beside Truth. He picks Truth off of the ground by his neck and chokeslams him onto the steel steps. The medical team works on Truth as Big Show exits with the Hardcore Championship.

[Backstage, Paul Heyman has pulled Lana, Rusev, Bad News Barrett, Jack Swagger and Zeb Colter into his office. Heyman talks about last weeks assault that Rusev and Barrett put on Swagger.]

Paul Heyman: We can't have this sort of thing going on in my company. I promised the fans that there would be a title unification and there will be one. Now, I know that you three (points at Barrett, Lana and Rusev) have been working together for the past week in order to not lose your titles. Maybe not even work together. It might be more like having an understanding. Regardless, I do not care. Because at Backlash, it is going to be you Rusev vs. Bad News Barrett vs. Jack Swagger in a triple threat match for the United States and Intercontinental Championships. There will be no count outs. There will be no disqualifications. There must be a winner. Tonight, however, we are going to get a little taste of the match because Jack Swagger will be going up against you Rusev. Good luck to both of you

[Barrett, Lana, and Rusev leave angrily while Swagger and Colter talk it over.]

[Elsewhere, Justin Roberts is interviewing Heath Slater.]

Justin Roberts: Heath Slater, tonight you can cement your place in the card for Backlash for the WWE Cruiserweight Championship if you can get past Xavier Woods. Your thoughts?

Heath Slater: Woods, you and I scored big upsets over our competition last week. This week your run comes to an end. I am the one man band and up next I will show why I am the next Cruiserweight Champion. Time for you to play your last tune.

Match #2: Heath Slater vs. Xavier Woods [Cruiserweight Semi-Final]

Spoiler

Woods dominates the start of the match with his quickness and agility. He is able to juke and jive and nail Slater with a forearm, knocking him down. He throws Slater over the top rope, but Slater manages to stay on the apron. Woods climbs through the ropes and delivers a DDT on the apron. He pick Slater up and goes for a kick to the midsection. Slater blocks the kick and delivers a knife edged chop. Slater then connects with a swinging neckbreaker. Slater is fatigued which allows Woods to reenter the ring. Slater then slides in and Woods capitalizes. Woods connects with a northern lights suplex but Slater manages to kick out at two.

Match #3: Jack Swagger vs. Rusev

Spoiler

After the match, Lana and Rusev celebrated the win while Colter climbed inside the ring to check on Swagger.

Rusev stepped over Swagger and began taunting Colter when Swagger grabbed Rusev's ankle and locked on the Patriot Lock. Rusev screamed in agony and started tapping the mat. Swagger was going to break Rusev's ankle until Lana raked Swaggers eyes, causing Swagger to let go and Rusev escaped the ring. Swagger celebrated with Colter and the fans by placing his hand over his heart and shouting, "WE THE PEOPLE!" as Rusev and Lana backed up the entrance ramp.

[Daniel Bryan walks his way through the backstage on his way to the ring. He will be taking on former Wyatt Family member Luke Harper in just a little while.]

Match #4: Bray Wyatt vs. Sin Cara

A dominating performance by Wyatt in this one. Sin Cara got a little bit of offensive going and even connected on his signature move, the headscissor into the small package.

He then went to the turnbuckle, posed in his tarantula pose, and hit Sister Abigail for the win.

[After the match, Wyatt kicks Sin Cara out of the ring and grabs a mic.]

Bray Wyatt: Daniel Bryan, now it's your time. Come on out. We have unfinished business, you and I.

[The titantron cuts to Daniel Bryan backstage. He makes his way to the gorilla position and his music comes over the PA system. Bryan comes out and makes his way down to the ring. He grabs a mic at ringside and climbs in.]

Daniel Bryan: What exactly do you want, Bray?

Bray Wyatt: To settle an old score between us. You see, you went off and won your little belt last year at Wrestlemania XXX. You lost your belt. And now you come out here wanting another shot to be at the top of the mountain? (Laughs) How many title shots have I had, Daniel? And yet, I have always triumphed over you.

Daniel Bryan: You know what? You're right. We do have unfinished business because I have never gotten to pay you back for the 2014 Royal Rumble. In fact, I.....

[Luke Harper slides into the ring and forearms Bryan in the back of the neck. The ref rings the bell and Wyatt makes his way to the back.]

Match #5: Luke Harper vs. Daniel Bryan

[/i]Harper controlled the early parts of the match, until Bryan made a comeback by doing a backflip off of the top rope. He then caught Harper with the Single Leg High Knee but Harper kicked out at 2 1/2. Bryan later dodged a big boot from Harper and dropkicked him to the mat. Bryan climbed up to the top rope for the headbutt but Harper threw him off and connected with the Discus Clothesline for the win.[/i]

Winner by Pinfall: Luke Harper

[The referee checked on Bryan has Harper left the ring and went up the stage. Bryan got to one knee and shook his head in disbelief at the loss. Suddenly, Wyatt can be heard laughing through the arena and the lights go out. When they come back on, Bryan is covered in blood.]

[Backstage, Rusev and Lana are carrying their bags to the parking lot when Swagger attacks him by chopblocking him in the back of the leg. He then locks on the ankle lock again and Rusev screams in pain. Swagger then lets go and stomps on his head a few times for good measure.]

[Back inside the arena, Randy Orton is lacing up his boots when Cena walks in. Orton stands up.]

John Cena: Whoa, whoa. Hold on killer. I am not here to start anything or fight or anything like that. I just wanted to know if we are even remotely going to be on the same page? You see, we both have a common enemy and that is The Authority. I know that we, together, will not be able to end The Authority tonight. But what we can do, is kick their.....

[Randy Orton puts his hand up to silence Cena.

Randy Orton: Just so you know......you.....and I......we are not on the same page. We are not even in the same book. The only thing that we have in common is that we do not like The Authority. Stay out of my way tonight, Cena. I do not trust you. I do not like you. We are not friends.

[Orton walks out of his locker room.]

Main Event: Seth Rollins/Kane vs. John Cena/Randy Orton

[After the match, Kane ran in to attack Orton but Cena picked up Kane and gave him another Attitude Adjustment. Kane rolled out of the ring.
