12 Rounds
Our final match was a 3-2 handicap match with Legacy vs. Mark Henry and John Cena. Huge heat for Rhodes and DiBiase, who came out before Orton, who also got huge heat. Next was Mark Henry, who got a kinda mixed pop at first (I think the fans who don't follow wrestling religiously thought he was still a heel [same thing with Carlito, as he got a semi-face pop when he came out]) but then drew cheers doing his new point to each section thing. Out last was John Cena, and good God the place went bananas for him. The match was okay, you're typical 3-2 match, with Orton not wanting to face Cena until he was down, and then no one wanting to face Henry when he was tagged in. Finally, Cena was isolated and took a beat down until he made the hot tag to Henry. Orton took off when Henry and Cena started dominating Cody and Ted, and while they were distracted, Cena hoisted Rhodes and DiBiase up for a double Attitude Adjustment. Then, Henry hit the World's Strongest Slam on Rhodes for the win. Afterwards, Cena and Henry celebrated with the crowd for about ten minutes.

John Cena def. The Miz via FU
Miz bashed Cena and the fans before match and was mosly in control. This will be a great feud since those two have chemistry. Best match so far.
Triple H def. Randy Orton with The Pedigree.
Even though this was the main event, there was plenty of rest holds and the match was back and fourth with HHH avoiding the RKO and finishing the match with Pedigree. Strangely, no Legacy interference even though Cody told me before the event that they plan to interfere.
John Cena def. The Miz
Miz cut a pre-match promo, same stuff that we saw on Judgment Day. Cena came out to a huge pop and controlled from the early going, doing atomic drops and nippletwists. Miz gained some offence until Cena started hitting his trademark moves. I felt so small when chanting "Cena Sucks" when the crowd was about 99% pro-Cena. Darn it. Cena was over with the crowd and threw his wristbands and other stuff into the crowd.
Triple H def. Randy Orton
Loved the entrance from Triple H. A solid main event from these two, but nothing extraordinary, of course. Orton removed the padding from the turnbuckle when Triple H's theme was playing and it of course backfired on him in the end when Orton got whipped in to the corner after trying to hit the RKO. Triple H hit the Pedigree for the 1-2-3
CM Punk, Jeff Hardy and John Cena defeated Randy Orton, Chris Jericho and Edge.
Orton played the hell out of the crowd and they absolutely hated him. He even stared down an elementary school aged kid. Orton took about five minutes to get to the ring. Jericho literally sprinted to the ring in about six seconds and just stared at the crowd. Hilarious.
Edge tore up somebody’s Jeff Hardy sign on the way down. He humped the mat. Jericho pointed at and taunted the canvas. Punk got a good reaction. The place popped good for Hardy, but the roof blew off when Cena came out. There were very few Cena haters in the house.
Good back and forth action to start. The heels double and triple teamed while the ref was distracted. Hardy took the brunt of the beating, but turned things around with a whisper in the wind. Cena got the hot tag and did the “You Can’t See Me” gig. Cena set up Jericho for the Attitude Adjustment but got speared for his efforts,
Edge got hit with Twist of Fate from Hardy, who then turned into an RKO. Punk connected with the GTS on Orton, Jericho hit Punk with the Code Breaker and then Cena hit Jericho with the Attitude Adjustment for the win. The place erupted. The faces celebrated to the crowd and the heels made a quick exit.
Batista over Big Show; and Rey Mysterio over Randy Orton via DQ.

Batista and John Cena beat Randy Orton and Big Show in 20 minutes when Cena pinned Show with the Attitude Adjuster.I now am deaf after the HUGE pop Cena got from the kids and 14 year old girls.Man it was the loudest live pop Ive ever heard and Ive been there for Hogan in his prime and this blew that out of the water.Orton and Show were cracking each other up during the faces' entrances and Randy even came right up to me and gave me his 'stare" that he does to the ringsiders.I was so honored.Orton got a mixed heel/face reaction.Nobody seemed to care about Show.Really good match w/ Orton and Cena being the standout performers.They work so well together.After the match Cena got Festus to come back out and they both 'sang" Country Roads since Festus didnt get to finish his try and just to show how kid freindly Cena is he bought in 3 beers(one for each) and that got Festus to sing insted of the bell gimmick as Cena said he didnt wanna do that because "he may get his ass kicked."Andf the 3 faces all had a chug a lug to finish it.Yeah I bet the parents loved that one.Again though it was a great show and I had a blast,especially the Orton 'staredown."

John Cena and Batista beat Randy Orton and Big Show by pinfall.
The advertised matches were John Cena vs Big Show and Triple H vs Orton for the title. No Triple H, though. John Cena out first to a deafeningly loud pop. I never heard such a reaction for anyone. Batista out next to a slightly less loud pop but still extremely loud.
Big Show came out to decent heat and Orton got more of a pop than heat at first. As the match went on Orton gained more heat. Cena hit Show with the first punch and the roof nearly blew up just for that. When Cena reversed an RKO the place exploded. Cena hit the Attitude Adjustment on Big Show for a gigantic pop. The crowd went nuts for Cena and Batista's win.

World Heavyweight Championship Match - John Cena b Chris Jericho
- A PPV quality match that was given the time it deserved. Before the match Jericho cut a promo about the crowd, saying they were failures, hypocrites and could never hope to reach the same level of success as Jericho. Cena’s music hits and the crowd go absolutely wild.
Jericho gets early control of the match after Cena misses with a flying shoulder block. Jericho sends Cena to the outside with a springboard dropkick. Cena is tossed into the steel ring steps as Jericho steps up his offence.
Back in the ring Cena finally connects with a flying shoulder block giving him time to hit the 5 Knuckle Shuffle. He sets Jericho up for the Attitude Adjustment but Jericho is able to counter with a DDT for a 2 count on Cena. Lots of near falls from both men, Cena kicks out of the Codebreaker and Jericho escapes from the STF. Jericho goes for a diving cross body on Cena but gets caught, Cena rolls him up from the mat on to his chest, then lifts him up on to his shoulders (this guy’s strength has to be seen in person to be believed) once Jericho is up there then there’s only one way that he’s coming down, Cena hits the Attitude Adjustment to win the match.

Match 7: John Cena v Edge for the World Heavyweight Championship
Crowd reaction to John Cena in Dublin is 50/50. No Vickie Guerrero thank God. The anti Cena lobby is alive and well in Dublin. Hilarious seeing kids and grown adults disagreeing over Cena during the match. Edge is an awesome heel to experience in person, knows how to draw the heat. Lets go Cena Lets go Edge chants throughout the match. No surprise in the end as Cena retains

Main Event: Randy Orton v. John Cena for World Heavyweight Title
I didn't hear any boos for Orton but the cheers weren't that overwhelming. Cena was definitely pop of the night. Orton dominated most of the match. He did his methodical stomps and headlocks. Interesting part of the match happened when Cena was outside the ring.
Orton rolled out the ring and began jawing with a man in the front row. The guy was in Santino's Italia shirt and had multiple signs all night. Apparently the guy most have said some truly mean stuff because Orton got right in his face. Then Orton threw Cena into the stairs and pointed out his action to the fan. He then got back into the fan's face and the argument continued. Security soon rushed to the area and the match continued. Or so we thought. The fan was being escorted and he wasn't going quietly. He was slamming the guard rail and wouldn't let go as three or four officers pulled on him. Orton was in the ring shouting at him to get out of the arena. Eventually the guy was taken out, his wife started cursing Orton. Someone threw a drink in the ring that hit the ref. Orton told her to get out too and she was sent out.
Orton got tremendous heat from the fans. Back to the match. Cena gets in control but Orton hits RKO out of nowhere. Orton takes too long for the cover and Cena kicks out. Two minutes later, F-U, Cena wins.
After the match Cena says he likes this crowd because they are ruthless. He talks about Hustle, Loyalty, Respect. Says that he likes the fact that one of his friends were ruthless enough "to want to kick Randy Orton's ass."
November 14, 2008 - Glascow, Scotland
Batista and Rey Mysterio beat Chris Jericho and Randy Orton.
Lots of stalling before the match. Jericho cut a killer of a promo before the match also. Match went about 15 mins with the heels working over Mysterio most of the way. Massive pop for the hot tag. Rey hit a double 619 on the heels and Dave pinned Orton with the Batista bomb.

Soon after the bell there was high flying from Mysterio and some really rough fighting from Batista. The fight went out of the ring at one point but soon after Rey Mysterio did his finisher 619 on both Chris Jericho and Randy Orton..... to finish the match off ... Batista did his finisher on Randy Orton "Batista bomb"... and that was it..... the place was in uproar
* After all the excitement Batista and Rey stayed in the ring and remembered Eddie Guerrero's 3 year anniversary by playing his song and dancing round the ring.
