Six Diva Tag Team Match: Beth Phoenix, Rosa Mendes, & Alicia Fox vs. Kelly Kelly, Gail Kim, & Maria Menounos (w. Nancy O'Dell)
We get a preview of Maria's new movie "Serial Buddies" not due out until next year, and it looks pretty awful. Gail starts out with Alicia and rolls her up for one. She grabs an armdrag, and tags in Maria who comes in and beals Alicia a couple of times by her hair. Maria hits a nice sunset flip which instantly might make her the second best wrestler in the match, but Alicia is able to make the tag to Beth. Beth gets in Maria's face, but she gets a kick and slap before tagging out to Kelly. Kelly gets the wrath of the Glamazon as she is met with a spinning sidewalk slam, and then is driven into the heel corner before a tag is made to Rosa. Kelly regains control and hits her handspring splash into the corner, but gets a shot from Rosa. Rosa goes after the faces in the corner, but Maria drops her on the top rope. Kelly then hits a legdrop which finishes Rosa at 2:25. This was short, and shockingly not terrible. Maria did not embarrass herself at all in what little bit she did. That's more than we can say for most of these ladies lately.
Winners: Kelly Kelly, Gail Kim, & Maria Menounos (Kelly pins Rosa-Legdrop *1/2)

-New US Champion The Miz is out and asks that the crowd show some respect for the new Champ. He asks if he's bragging too much, and then tells us to get used to it. He says we need to get used to it, as in two weeks the US Champion from Raw will be taking on the Intercontinental Champion from Smackdown John Morrison. OH, SWEET JESUS YES. Miz says he was the talent of the tag team, and Morrison was nothing more than a hairdo with abs. He calls John the new Richard Simmons, and says in 10 years time when he's still wearing bedazzled tank tops and hanging out with 400 pound women Miz will be the face of the number 1 show in Sports Entertainment.

Randy Orton & John Cena vs. Legacy
So in the past week the Cardinals were swept from the playoffs, the Blues lost their first two home games, Mizzou football choked away a 12 point fourth quarter lead at home to Nebraska, The Rams continued their quest to be the worst NFL team ever, and even tonight Evan Bourne lost his Bragging Rights Qualifier. Only Randy Orton is left to salvage the worst sports week in Gateway City History. Orton says he just got off the phone with Snoop Dogg, and he told him that next week will be Cena's last on Raw. After hearing that Snoop agreed that Cena will compete in one of the biggest matches of his career, but declines to tell us what that will be. I would pay top dollar to listen to a phone conversation between Snoop and Orton. Cole says we'll find out the details on that match when this one is complete. Orton goes to the floor not even pretending he will be tagging in, and Dibiase starts the match with Cena. Cena grabs a go behind and takes down Dibiase, before grabbing a front facelock. Dibiase elbows free and sends Cena into the Legacy corner stomping him down. Rhodes tags in and stomps Cena a bit before tagging Teddy back in. Dibiase delivers a standing dropkick for two, and then hits a powerslam for another two count. Rhodes tags back in and locks in a modified camel clutch, which he turns into a rear chinlock. Cena stands up and counters into a protoplex, and that allows him to tag an unsuspecting Orton into the match. Cena stands on the floor to ensure that Orton can't return the favor. Orton grabs a side headlock on Cody, but Rhodes counters into a rollup for two. Dibiase tags himself in and rolls Orton up twice for two counts before Orton goes and tags Cena into the match. Orton and Cena make REALLY ANGRY FACES at each other, before Cena decides to turn his attention back to Teddy. Cena hits a pair of shoulderblocks and a protoplex which sets up the five knuckle shuffle. Orton tags himself into the match, but Cena goes for the Attitude Adjustment on Dibiase. Orton pulls Dibiase off Cena's shoulders and goes to work on him, but Dibiase rolls him up from behind and gets the pin at 6:09. An insensed Orton screams at Legacy, but turns around long enough to get an Attitude Adjustment from Cena.
Winners: Legacy (Dibiase pins Orton-Rollup **1/2)

-Next Week's Huge Main Event for John Cena's potential Raw Finale will be John Cena vs. Triple H.

-So lets see here. Celebrities wrestling? Check. The same title changing hands twice? Check. Tag team partner's wrestling each other? Check. Tag team partner's who hate each other? Check. Tons of rollup finishes? Check. This show was right out of the Russo playbook. It wasn't all bad mind you. Both Legacy members getting clean (albeit cheap) victories over the two top guys was nice to see, and a few of the segments provided some legit laugh out loud moments. They did a good job of selling the pay per view concept, but all in all the bad on this show far outweighed any of the good.
