Final four are Cena & Orotn vs. Del Rio & Barrett.

Riley distraced Cena and Miz came out of the announcing chair and threw out Cena.

Del Rio won.

Orton threw out Barrett but then Del Rio immediately threw out Orton.  As he was celebrating, Santino Marella came out from the floor.  He had gone under the ropes way earlier.  He gave Del Rio the cobra and went to throw himout but Del Rio reversed and threw him over the top.

Match went 69 minutes total.  As far as the match went, most of the minor names were put in early.  there weren’t a lot of big crowd reactions, biggest by far were Booker T and Kevin Nash (as Diesel), but then both were eliminated immeidiately, which really upset the crowd in both cases.  In fact they were madder about them being eliminated.  Crowd seemed happy that Cena was thrown out.  The booking of the match was good and it was never boring, but nothing really special.  No surprises in the sense that aside from Ezekiel Jackson, throwing out Big Show, nobody who wasn’t a star threw out anyone who was a star nor were made a star and this is an easy match to do that.  John Morrison had a great spot where he was thrown out but landed Spiderman style on the barricade (foot never hit the floor), climbed to the top of the barricade, jumped to the ring steps and then got back in the ring.

11/29/10 Raw Preview- Special three-hour Raw features the ‘King of the Ring’ tournament and new WWE Champion The Miz

This Monday on a live three-hour Raw WWE Champion The Miz shows off his awesome title and a new King of the Ring is crowned

It finally happened, this past Monday on Raw The Miz cashed in his Money in the Bank title shot and won the title from Randy Orton. The Miz seized his oppurtunity and pinned Orton after he had wrestled a grueling title match with Wade Barrett. I expect the anonymous GM to sign a rematch between the two for the next PPV.

The Cena/Nexus angle is also expected to continue this week with rumors circulating that Cena has bought a front row ticket to this week’s Raw.

The main focus of this three-hour Raw is the finish of the King of the Ring tournament that began on last week’s Raw. The qualifying superstars are Raw’s John Morrison, Daniel Bryan, Sheamus and Ezekiel Jackson. Also qualifying for the tournament are Smackdown’s Alberto Del Rio, Kofi Kingston, Cody Rhodes and Drew McIntyre. Of the eight superstars my pick to be crowned King of the Ring is John Morrison, other likely winners are Sheamus, Del Rio and McIntyre. John Morrison seems to be the likely choice when you consider his most recent push and PPV win over former WWE Champion Sheamus.
