By Kris Zellner ECW GM Tiffany opened the show by greeting the fans in her sling. 1. Cryme Tyme (Shad Gaspard & JTG) beat The Hart Dynasty (David Hart Smith & Tyson Kidd) 2. WWE Women’s Title: Michelle McCool defeated Mickie James with the Big Boot to retain her title. 3. ECW Heavyweight Title: Christian beat William Regal with the Killswitch to retain his title. Regal suffered a right cheekbone injury here and juiced. 4. Ezekiel Jackson defeated The Hurricane with his standing side slam. Fans were chanting “HORNET” at Hurricane thinking he was the Green Hornet comic book character. 5. 3 Way Dance for the WWE Intercontinental Heavyweight Title: John Morrison beat Matt Hardy & Dolph Ziggler to retain his title. The women were screaming themselves silly over Morrison. 6. Drew McIntyre defeated Fit Finlay by pinfall using the ropes with Drew doing the same schtick he did the next night in Mexico City. 7. Rey Misterio Jr. beat Chris Jericho after a 619/West Coast Pop combination. Jericho also did the schtick he did in Mexico City to the same reaction here. This was the match of the night by far. 8. Batista & The Undertaker defeated CM Punk & Kane when Undertaker used the Tombstone Piledriver on Punk. Taker was insanely over here and the fans chanted “POLLO” at Punk calling him a chicken. WWE 10/17 – Palacio de los Deportes de Mexico City (packed house) ECW GM Tiffany opened the show by greeting the fans in her sling. 1. Cryme Tyme (Shad Gaspard & JTG) beat The Hart Dynasty (David Hart Smith & Tyson Kidd) – Cryme Tyme was very over with the fans and won despite Natalya’s interference. 2. WWE Women’s Title: Michelle McCool defeated Mickie James to retain her title. Mickie got a false 3 count that got the fans going wild but the referee said it was a 2 count and McCool would take advantage for the win getting massive boos. 3. Fit Finlay beat Drew McIntyre – Drew came out and taunted the fans in Spanish saying that he hates Mexico, so Finlay comes out draped in the Mexican flag to a huge pop. The fans chanted Mexico, Mexico throughout the match. 4. 3 Way Dance for the WWE Intercontinental Heavyweight Title: John Morrison defeated Matt Hardy & Dolph Ziggler to retain his title. Hardy was cheered more than Morrison here but not by much. 5. ECW Heavyweight Title: Christian beat William Regal to retain his title. Tiffany did the ring intro for this match in Spanish and the fans were really into Christian in what was a called a pretty damn good match. 6. Ezekiel Jackson defeated The Hurricane in a match that had no heat although there were some boos because it was going a little long. 7. Batista, Rey Misterio Jr., & The Undertaker beat CM Punk, Chris Jericho, & Kane – Jericho got the most heat of the night as he buried the fans and Mexico in Spanish, which he has a great grasp of from his Corazon de Leon days in the mid 90’s in EMLL. Jericho was greeted with chants of “CULERO” which is asshole in Spanish with Jericho countering that he couldn’t be one because he isn’t from the Distrito Federal. Punk then does his normal spiel about being straight edged and he was booed also. The fans then went nuts when the tecnicos came out and stayed hot for the entire match. Misterio got the heat taking punishment from all the rudos but would make a comeback hitting a double 619 on Jericho & Punk before Undertaker finished off Jericho with the Tombstone Piledriver. Batista & Rey then cut promos in Spanish after the match talking about their love of competing in Mexico before wishing everyone good night. |
