-Match: Taker/Orton/Show v. Miz/Truth/Christian
This was probably intended as a punishment match for the heels, but they actually do surprisingly well against the array of top faces.....and in fact, Truth is able to roll up Orton for a huge win!
Rating: 92
Post-show: Bryan and Sheamus clear the ring before we can get a heel beatdown (81); Rock/Ryder/Cara d. Henry/Barrett/Chavo (60)
Overall: 79 SUCCESS lol angles
FROM THE BOOKERMAN
-That (more or less) throwaway 6-man tag ME was literally the best match I've booked so far in this diary.
NEWSWIRE
-RoH is set to turn Corino heel. I thought he was already...? They've also picked up Super Crazy, Mark Jindrak, and Jimmy Rave.
-Xplosion netted a 50, with a Moore/Young match overshadowing the Lynn/Kash main event. Hogan and Flair did a segment, but only managed to get 71.
-Rikio and Yone have claimed the GHC Tag Titles from Ishimori and Morishima in a solid opening to the latest NOAH show.
-Adam Pearce has been crowned the most recent NWA Hollywood TV champ, beating Willie Mack after Colt Cabana left with the title.
-FCW is starting to lose a bit of the momentum they'd started to build. Losing the TV deal hurt them, but so does keeping Andy Leavine as champion.
-RoH continues to rebuild, picking up Jack Evans and Chris Cage.
-Sources inside WWE indicate that Mason Ryan is set for a big push as a future star. Other sources indicate "lol."
-Inoki Genome Federation has put together another impressive show, with Ultimo retaining over Otani.
-RoH may be overhauling their roster, but their main event scene is still the same quality. Strong and Benjamin went over Corino and Steen to close out another fine TV taping.
-Speaking of which, they've recruited Sean Morley. It remains to be seen how exactly Val Venis will fit into their product.
-Dragon Gate has pumped up their upcoming tour with the additions of Davey "too good for you" Richards and Juvy "OFFER YOUR SOULS" Guerrera.
-Low-Ki has apparently been garnering some heat in FCW. He's rumored to have attitude problems.

-RoH has also picked up Jimmy Yang.
-A-1 is getting in on the expansion act, acquiring the services of El Generico and Rhett Titus.
