MIND GAMES
APRIL, WEEK 2, 2015

*The show starts off with the theme montage and explosions to open up Smackdown*

Phillips: Here! At the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas, we are here live for Thursday Night Smackdown! I'm here with the legendary John Layfield and Michael Cole.

Cole: Tonight, WWE Superstar John Cena will address the Universe on the condition of his father John Cena Sr. and Bray Wyatt.

Phillips: Last week on Friday Night Smackdown, Bray Wyatt continued his mind games with John Cena and surprised not only John Cena, but the whole WWE Universe with a John Cena's father in a goat mask, laid unconscious behind Cena.

JBL: Bray Wyatt has gone too far this time Cole. Not many can mess with a man's family and get away with it.

Cole: We will standby for John Cena to address the Universe, but right now, we have some great action to get into...

Match #1: The Ascensions v Tyson Kid & Cesaro

SEGMENT

*John Cena's music hits and as he comes out, as usual, Cena gets a mix reception, but Cena does not care as he kept a serious face and kept his eyes toward the ring. It was as if he didn't want to acknowledge no one*

Cole: Here comes John Cena. He said he was going to address the world of the events that took place last week here on Smackdown, in San Antonio. John Cena said he would also address Bray Wyatt as well.

*John receives the microphone and listens to the crowd*

Cena: Will you please just shut up and let me speak for a minute, please...

*The crowd was taken back a bit by Cena's attitude and choice of words, and more boos came to follow*

Cena: Last week, in San Antonio, Bray Wyatt did the unthinkable... Bray Wyatt had broken the forsaken rule... Bray Wyatt put his hands on my father... An old man, who never once step foot in a WWE ring and performed in front of thousands and millions... A man who was humiliated in front of thousands and millions... He left a unconscious man, lie in the ring, in the ring, in my presence... And to save face for his value, he puts a goat mask, over my father's face... Forcing me to remove the mask... And see the wet tears, of my father... I spent days and nights at the bed of my father, who is still hospitalized... They said, that he suffered a mild stroke, and that he could not feel anything on the right side of his body... The doctor said it could be months before he can begin to feel anything, and that angers me... Bray Wyatt... I don't know where you are, but you need to listen up... We have a tag team match tonight, and you better pray on everything I don't get my hands on you... I don't give a damn about the match, I don't care about my job, I don't care about Smackdown, I don't care about the WWE! I get my hands on you Bray Wyatt, I promise, I will end you Bray Wyatt! And anybody who steps in front of me will witness the monster you've been dying to born... Tonight, Bray, your kind ends here!

*The crowd stands at a stalemate, cheering and booing Cena*

JBL: Cena means business, Bray Wyatt has officially made this personal

*A moment later, HBK's music hits and he receives a big pop from his brethren Texans. After the crowd dies down, HBK begins to speak*

HBK: Cena, if anybody, and I mean anybody knows how you feel... It's me... Almost eight years ago, at SummerSlam, an adversary of mine at the time, knocked out my wife...

Cole: The adversary Shawn is referring to is Chris Jericho, who punched HBK's wife, Rebecca, in SummerSlam confrontation back in 2008

JBL: Must you throw everyone under the bus Michael? I remember, it was an accident!

HBK: And in this industry, things can turn for the worse at the drop of a pen... Things can turn from business, to personal very fast. And I understand your dilemma... I'm out here to say, as a General Manager, and a family man, I apologize to you John Cena, and to the Cena Family... What happened last week was, utterly disgusting, horrible, and unprofessional on behalf of the WWE talent... Your father should have never been involved in you and Bray Wyatt's rivalry... Things shouldn't have gotten that far, and it should have never happened...

*Cena quickly snaps back at HBK*

Cena: I don't care much for apologies around here no more... You can keep your apology, just give me Bray Wyatt and we'll call it even...

HBK: John... Look at you, you're letting Bray get under your skin, and he's winning that battle... Don't let Bray suck you in, you're too resilient and you need to fight back, but not at his game... I played this game before, and if you want to-

Cena: Shawn, I don't care for your sympathy for me or my family. You come out here and compare a mishap to intentions... Bray Wyatt is not a man you play games with... We're talking about a monster, who put his hands on my father, and put him in a hospital in bad health, not a wife who gets sucker punched in the face for a fat lip, because you wasn't man enough to take it your-self...

*The crowd was stunned by Cena, as well as HBK for going that far*

Phillips: Oh, that's just not right.

HBK: ... You watch your words Cena, don't make regret drafting-

Cena: Yeah? Or what? You going to fire me? If that's the case, you'll have to carry me out of here in cuffs, but not before I get my hands on Bray Wyatt...

*Cena drops his microphone as his music hits, staring at Shawn Michaels, receiving a stare back from Michaels as well to end the segment*

Match #3: R-Truth v Dolph Ziggler

PRE-MATCH INTERFERENCE

*Two fan favorites were scheduled for a match tonight and the crowd was excited for it. Dolph Ziggler was getting a nice pop from the crowd as he made his way to the ring and out of nowhere, Luke Harper blasts Ziggler from behind*

Phillips: Hey! That's Luke Harper!

Cole: What's he's doing out here? He's attacking Dolph Ziggler! Somebody get this psycho!

*Luke Harper continued his attack on Ziggler as the crowd booed his actions. R-Truth had enough and went out and tried to help Ziggler, but for his effort, R-Truth caught a big boot to the jaw and sent into the steel steps*

JBL: That's what you get for sticking your nose in other people's business. Luke Harper has an agenda and looks to keep it.

Cole: This is madness!

*Luke Harper embraced his heel with the boos, looking onwards into the crowd with his cold craze stare*
------


Match #4: Erick Rowan v The Miz
Neither both of these men were fan favorites under the lights, but the way The Wyatt Family has been running around, The Miz actually got a little cheap pop in Houston as he made his way to the ring. The Miz couldn't afford to dance with Rowan straight up, especially with Luke Harper lurking around after he viciously attacked Dolph Ziggler and R-Truth. The bell rings and The Miz plays to his speed, dodging the early attacks from Rowan. Rowan gets Miz cornered and Miz dodges out of the way and attacks Rowan while in the corner, getting some early offense in and momentum behind him. Miz keeps working on Rowan and hits the Russian Legsweep on Rowan, then mounting him with clubbing blows repeating the attacks. Rowan seemed to be uneffected and makes it to his feet. The Miz run the ropes and catches Rowan with an Arm-Trapping Swinging Neckbreaker, keeping Rowan off his game. Miz continues his offense, really giving Rowan a beaten, but Rowan soon turn things around for him-self and you hear the crowd boo louder in his efforts. Rowan showing some life, getting back into the match with constant headbutts and clubbing blows to the back of the Miz. The match goes on in favor of Erick Rowan and when all things seem lost, The Miz counters Rowan and plants him with a DDT, then goes for the pin, 1-2-Rowan kicks out. Following the pin, Miz sized up the reeling big man up for a running knee attack before he makes it to his feet a couple of times. Miz goes for the cover again, 1-2-Rowan powers out. Miz gets up, and in his direction, he meets the face of Luke Harper, who just stands there glaring at The Miz. The Miz was confused of his look and Rowan tried to capitalize on the distraction, but the Miz kept his wits and hit Rowan with the Snapmare Driver. The crowd was getting behind The Miz now, wanting him to finish off Rowan. Miz goes for the pin, but Luke Harper distracts the referee. Miz saw the distraction, and tries to knock Harper off the apron, but misses. In turn, Rowan recovers and knocks Miz out the ring in front of Harper. Rowan followed suit and kept on his attacks outside the ring as the count went up. Rowan eventually tosses Miz back in the ring, Rowan sees Miz in position and he splashes on Miz and covers, 1-2-Miz powers out on instinct! Rowan continue his assault with big haymakers on Miz and Miz somehow counters, dodging the big punch and catches Rowan with the Skull Crushing Finale.

The Miz Wins By Disqualification

POST MATCH SEGMENT

*The bell rings constantly as Luke Harper attacked The Miz and eventually Erick Rowan joins in*

Cole: Oh come on! This is a damn mugging! The Referee should've had banned Luke Harper before the match!

Phillips: But Erick Rowan still loss the match!

Match #5: Big E v Big Show
Big Show looking to come in this match and get a win over Big E, and hopefully get his name in the Intercontinental title picture. Both men square off and Big E takes the early advantage, impressively manhandling the Big Show with slams. People knew Big E was strong, but this was effortlessly impressive. It didn't take long for the Big Show to turn things around and take control, but Big E didn't waste time taking control back either. Both men went back and forth, with neither gaining much of an advantage. Later in the match, Big Show finally takes control of the match after hitting the Running Powerslam on Big E.

Phiilips: And you can see the intensity and fury in John Cena's eyes as he wait for Luke Harper and Bray Wyatt...

*The Wyatt's vignette pops up and the lights went out, it was time for the Wyatts to appear. John Cena anxiously waiting. The lights came back on moments later and standing before Bryan and Cena was Luke Harper and Erick Rowan*

JBL: Here he comes...

*A video on the titantron begins to show. It was a dark place, and Bray Wyatt was not visible. A few seconds later, a dimmed light glowed onto the screen and you can hear this beeping noise, like a cardiac machine. Then the glowing light starting to roam up to a bed, and the beeping was getting louder. Then the soft singing starts*

???: "He's got the whole world, in his hands... He's got the whole wide world, in his hands..."

The closer the light got to the bed, the more clearer things got, and the light reveal the bed to have a patient, John Cena Sr.

The light, assuming to be Bray's lantern roamed over, and lo and behold, Bray Wyatt, dressed in his apron, gently running his hand through John Cena's father's hair*

Bray Wyatt: He's got the whole world in his hands...

Cole: Oh no, god no, this is not happening.

Bray Wyatt: ... Cena... I'm here...

*Bray blows out the lantern and suddenly, you hear a flat line. The lights come back on and the fans see a John Cena with a distraught look on his face. Cena freaks out and leaves the ring, racing to the backstage and making his way out of the arena in a town's car. With Daniel Bryan and Luke Harper left at the ring, the referee decides to continue the match and tells the announcer to ring the bell. Luke Harper approaches the ring, going up the steps and waiting in his corner*

Phillips: The referee has decided to continue the match, so in assuming, this will be a one-on-one match.

Cole: With Bray Wyatt not here, and John Cena taking his leave- Hey, what the?-

*Bray Wyatt slides in the ring behind Daniel Bryan and attacks him from behind*

JBL: It's Bray Wyatt! He's here!

Cole: Oh my god! Bray Wyatt was here all along?

Phillips: But we just saw Bray at the hospital!

JBL: Bray outsmarted Cena! Fooling him to the leave the arena!

*And the mugging on Daniel Bryan begins, as this match has now turned into a handicap match*
-----

Bray Wyatt begins the match, stomping violently on Daniel Bryan, inflicting pain as the craze eyes Luke Harper watched on. Bray kept on the attack on Bryan, not letting up. For a time, The Wyatt Family tagged in and out, staying fresh as the assault on Bryan continue and he was reeling from the 2-1 beatdown. Luke Harper was tagged in and worked on Daniel Bryan, overpowering him to the ground, stomping on him, dropping elbows, and gator rolling him around the ring. Throughout all that and a pin cover, Daniel Bryan remained resilient and kicks out at 2.

GREAT SHOW!

The entire Bray Wyatt/John Cena stuff is great.

I like that you have commentary because a lot of us don't (I personally just dont have time). You are really good with the Bray Wyatt character.

BTW, it was much easier to read with bigger font for sure.

Thanks man.

You guys gave the Cena/Wyatt fued the highest praise out of all my storylines the first time around, so I had to bring it back.

Doing commentary is just little technique to keep weekly storylines connected. If I put two shows of SD out and you only read the latest, you may read something that'll peak your interest to read the prior to catch up. It also helps keep characters' persona in check. Don't want Luke Harper doing a 180 and becoming the next Cena lol

Thanks man, I think I had the most fun channeling Bray's persona to write up a promo for him. After watching a few interviews and promos, his essence in words comes natural.

DOUBLE EDGED SWORD
APRIL, WEEK 3, 2015

MINUTES BEFORE THE SHOW

Cole: We're here tonight ladies and gentlemen, in New Orleans, Louisiana! And we're ready to set off another night of Monday Night RAW!

King: Hey, look who's pulling up to the arena.

*The limo stops inside and the cameraman pans to the passenger door, out comes Seth Rollins, along with the General Manager, Triple H, and Roman Reigns*

Cole: Wait a minute! What's Roman Reigns doing with The Authority!?

King: Oh, come on, don't tell me he aligned him-self with those guys.

JBL: Roman Reigns finally has some sense! Reigns have finally been set on the right path! Just look at The Authority King. Each one of the members of The AUthority has been a former World Heavyweight Champion, and sooner or late, Roman Reigns will be the next World Heavyweight Champion after Seth Rollins!

*Then out of nowhere, Randy Orton bum rush Seth Rollins from his blindside. It surprises Triple H as he takes a step back, seeing Rollins get attacked*

King: It's the Viper!

*Triple H tries to step in between and break up the fight, but that only angers Orton and attacks Triple H as well*

JBL: Randy Orton is on a rampage!

Cole: But the show haven't even started!

JBL: Who cares? The Viper ain't waiting on no one.

*Randy Orton cleans out Triple H out of the picture and would soon focus on Roman Reigns, but out of nowhere, Reigns would Spear Orton into some heavy storage crates*

Cole: And Reigns Spears Orton!!

*And just like that, the fight was over before the officials and personnels could reach to them. Rollins picks him-self up and attacks Orton until he had enough*

SR: AND THIS IS WHY YOU'LL NEVER BE WWE CHAMPION!! WHO DO YOU THINK YOU ARE, HUH?! YOU SEE THIS RIGHT HERE?! *Rollins shoves the title in Orton's face* THIS IS AS CLOSE YOU'LL EVER GET!

*Triple H, Reigns, and Rollins finally exit the fight scenary, leaving the medical trainers to attend Orton as the show starts*
-----

*The show starts off with it's theme montage and explosions to open up RAW*

Cole: Welcome to Monday Night RAW! And as you already witness a preview of excitement tonight. Just before the show, the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, Seth Rollins and Triple H was attacked by his former Authority member, Randy Orton. What is to believe to be retribution of what happened last week on RAW when Randy Orton was set up by Rollins to be ambushed by Roman Reigns. But the Story here tonight is, Is Roman Reigns really with The Authority? If so, why?

King: Yeah, and there's no telling for what reason Roman Reigns have sided with Triple H and Seth Rollins, but you have to believe the WWE Universe is in shock and disappointed in what their seeing.

JBL: Who cares what the WWE Universe thinks King! In my days, these fans didn't help me win my first WWE Championship! And they're not going to help Roman either. But The Authority can! As long as he plays his cards right and don't bite the hand that feeds him.

Cole: Well, getting on with the show, we'll have Booker T and Chris Jericho in action against the Los Matadors, so lets get on to it.

JBL: My man Booker!
------


Match #1: LOS MATADORS v BOOKER T & CHRIS JERICHO

Booker T and Diego kicks off the match and Diego gets the upper-hand in the early shootings. Diego whales on Booker, switching from limb to limb, staying unpredictable. Booker eventually counters Diego and tosses him outside where the fight continues in Booker's favor. The fight gets back in the ring and Booker tags in JEricho. Jericho was looking to capitalize but Diego was quick to recover and take the fight to Jericho, but it didn't last long as Y2J stopped him in his tracks. The two goes back and forth and Diego created some space with a Hurricarana. Diego tags in Fernando and continues where his partner left off. Jericho tries to counter but Fernando turns it into a clothesline. Fernando delivers a Low Dropkick to Jericho's face. Fernando sets up Jericho in the corner and executes a beautiful Springboard Arm-Drag. Fernando covers near the ropes, 1-2-Jericho grabs hold of the bottom rope-3!
Los Matadors Wins By Pinfall
------

POST MATCH SEGMENT

Cole: Wow! The Los Matadors just stole a win! The referee was so out of position, he never saw Jericho grabbing the bottom rope.

JBL: That there is just bad luck. That referee should be fired for not doing his job properly!

*The audience goes into a loud boo for the match ending so early, particularly for the ref's blindness. Jericho and Booker T argues with the official, but the official stands his ground*

King: Looks like they're not happy with what just happened.

JBL: I wouldn't be either if I was screwed out of a match that quickly.
------


Match #2: DAMIEN SANDOW v RUSEV

Last week, the fans expected this match to be a squash match, but was in for a surprise when Damien Sandow defeated the powerful Bulgarian Russian, Rusev by pinfall. Not many competitors can say they got one over on the Russian Super-Athlete, but Sandow was one of them. Rusev was fuming and wasted no time getting at Sandow. Both men going at each other like rabid dogs, going blow for blow. Sandow creates some space with a knee to the gut and stay on the offense. Sandow catches Rusev with a Northern Light Suplex and continue his attack on Rusev on the mat. The fans were behind Sandow early as he had the advantage. Sandow continue to work on Rusev, not giving him any space to counter his way back into the match. Rusev eventually tries to make it to his feet with the ropes, and Sandow was right there behind for the Neckbreaker. Sandow covers, 1-2-Rusev kicks out. Sandow keeps on the offense with a Russian Legsweep and Knee Drops to the face of Rusev. Sandow helps Rusev to his feet and Rusev quickly counters into a Russian Legsweep of his own. Rusev starts to fight his way back into the match with ground attacks of his own but it didn't last long when Sandow came with a Spinebuster out of nowhere. Sandow lines Rusev up for the Elbow of Disdain and connects. Sandow covers, 1-2-Rusev kicks out of the deep two. Rusev is reeling at this point and Sandow has kept this match one-sided. Sandow picks Rusev up and works him onto the ropes with haymakers. Sandow then toss Rusev out onto the apron, going out there with him and DDTs Rusev on the apron! At this point, Rusev is literally out. If this was a last man standing match, Sandow would have probably won the match right now. Sandow escorts Rusev back in the ring and delivers another Northern Light Suplex, this time bridging the pin, 1-2-Rusev kicks out. Sandow stay on him with Suplexes and ground attacks. Rusev had one more push in him, but Sandow kept his wits and hits another Spinebuster on Rusev and connects with another Elbow of Disdain. Sandow covers, 1-2-3!
Damien Sandow Wins By Pinfall

POST MATCH SEGMENT

Cole: Wow! Well, what do you have to say about this one JBL? Damien Sandow just defeated Rusev again, twice in consecutive weeks!

JBL: That match was fixed! I don't care what anyone says, Sandow is a joke!

King: Well, the Joke is on you and Rusev again tonight, as Damien Sandow stands tall

*The raging Russian, Rusev, upset over another loss to the likes of Damien Sandow. He's stares a bull's eye on Sandow and attempts to attack Sandow from behind again like last week*

Cole: Uh-oh, Damien watch out! Get out of there!

*Rusev attacks, but misses as Sandow bowed to the crowd in time. Upon coming up, and a bit startled, Sandow escapes the ring, smiling and mocking Rusev as the Rusev was left in the ring with a leashed aggression*

Cole: Perhaps, but the victor gets the spoils for another day.

BACKSTAGE INTERVIEW

*Randy Orton was seen exiting the medical office and Renee Young tries to get some incite*

Renee: Excuse me Orton, can you give us some incite on why you attacked The Authority?

*Orton stands there, staring a hole in Renee. Renee realizes this wasn't the time for questioning as she puts her hand down hesitantly. Orton walks off*
-----


Match #3: JACK SWAGGER v MARK HENRY

Jack Swagger came into this match with momentum with a win over Cesaro last week. But when the bell rung, Mark Henry simply flap jacked Swagger and it appeared that all momentum was lost. Henry created some offense on the mat and pulled Swagger to his feet for a Back Breaker, followed by a Big Splash from Henry. Mark Henry had no agenda tonight, except for one thing, inducting Jack Swagger into the Hall Of Pain. Before Henry did too much damage, Swagger tries to turn things around and both men goes blow for blow, countering each other for a moment, but Mark Henry is too strong, charging at Swagger with a STO and another Big Splash. Henry covers, 1-2-Swagger powers out. Henry pulls Swagger to his feet for another flap jack as this match remains one-sided. Henry sized up Swagger and lifts Swagger up for the Military Press Oklahoma Slam! Swagger looks out of it as Mark Henry is simply too much to handle.

Henry covers, 1-2-3!
Mark Henry Wins By Pinfall

Cole: I think Cesaro is out here for Swagger

*The ref sees Cesaro as he entered the ring and tries to stop him, but he simply gets pushed out the way*

Another really good show.

The Authority angle with Reigns and Orton is really good.

Interested in seeing where you go with Cesaro. Kind of crazy he brutally attacked someone (a heel move) and then took on a heel in the next match.

Sandow with another big win.

Thanks bro.

It's still a work in progress story arc, I still haven't figured out how it's going to play out yet for Backlash. Cause after that PPV, all storylines are fresh (For RAW & SD).

I wouldn't call it a "heel move", moreso as, "you loss, get out my ring" type situation. Cesaro & Swagger having a little feud, so the animosity towards each other is there.

Sandow is getting a good push.

[bestbrother]

Caught up with this, im enjoying it. Nice writing style to get me interested in whats going on.

I think the biggest praise is that, i dont really know many of the wrestlers you use as im into the older stuff and these new guys ive not seen much of (outside of the bigger names). But your universe is engaging me with them.

I do hope to see more of HBK though
