Raw Deal - Raw recap for November 24, 2025

Roman Reigns heads to the ring to start tonight's show. Before Roman can speak, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes also heads to the ring. Cody says that he has talked about why he is in this year's men's WarGames match, then asks Roman what is in it for him. Roman says that the last time he checked, he has been in this war and that Cody just joined it. He admits both men hate each other and do not know each other well, but they both know they do not play around when it comes to family. He says that half of their team is his family, and before they were on their team, they were in his Bloodline. Roman says he has been invested in The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) for a long time, and he plans to see that investment through. Cody says "Understandable," then welcomes Roman to his team. Before he can shake Roman's hand, CM Punk suddenly shows up. CM Punk says that their WarGames match is an all-star match, and while Cody has his word, CM Punk says he does not need his word, as he saved his life. Roman tells him he ruined his life four months later, but Punk tells Roman that if he backstabs him, he also backstabs The Usos. He also mentions Cody saying the team is his, stating that while he can be the quarterback on Friday, he is the champ on Mondays. Roman questions why they are "measuring them now" before saying that it does not matter whose team it is and that they can all agree on hating Paul Heyman and The Vision (Bron Breakker, "Big" Bronson Reed, Logan Paul), who he hates more than Punk. He also states that while they are being honest, "that title would look so much better on his shoulder." Roman smiles and refuses to answer, saying "Let them figure it out."



Backstage, Paul Heyman tells Drew McIntyre to take things seriously, as he is still under suspension and is only here because he is part of his team. He also tells Logan Paul not to have anything to do with Brock Lesnar, then finds out that he is McIntyre's partner tonight. Logan simply says "Wise...choice."

Gunther beats Carmelo Hayes to advance in the Last Time is Now Tournament.



Backstage, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes meets with CM Punk and Roman Reigns when The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) show up. Jey says that he and Jimmy are the only ones on the team on the same page and that they are the ones to get the advantage in tonight's advantage match, then The Usos leave. Roman looks at Cody and Punk and tells them to fix this.

We see a snippet of an interview with John Cena where Cena talks about what success really is.

"Dirty" Dominik Mysterio heads to the ring. Dominik says that he will put an end to John Cena's retirement tour and embarrass Cena in his hometown at Survivor Series, take back the Intercontinental Championship and continue to be the greatest Mysterio of all time. He also says that Cena is not here tonight and that he does not blame Cena for not coming to Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, which he calls a dump before Cena's music hits. A little person dressed as Cena (and another little person with the word "Stu" on the back of his shirt carrying a portable camcorder) shows up. "Little Cena" has trouble getting in the ring at first, but gets in. Dom tries not to corpse as he gives "Little Cena" a chance to run away, but "Little Cena" challenges Dominik to a fight. Not surprisingly, he gets booted in the face and hit with a Five Knuckle Shuffle by Dominik. Not surprisingly, he gets booted in the face and hit with a Five Knuckle Shuffle by Dominik. This is followed up by a splash from the top rope, then Rey Mysterio suddenly runs to the ring. Dominik retreats and heads to the back as Finn Balor and JD McDonagh head to the ring for the next match.



Rey Mysterio beats JD McDonagh after McDonagh inadvertently Spears Finn Balor off the ring apron after Finn trips Rey on the outside as Rey goes for a 619. After the match, Rey Mysterio outsmarts Finn and McDonagh as they go back on the attack in order to get out of the ring.



Backstage, General Manager Adam Pearce tells Raquel Rodriguez that she will be in the mix for the next shot at the Women's World Championship, then The New Day (Kofi Kingston and Xavier Woods) and Grayson Waller show up after Raquel leaves. The New Day find out that they will get a tag team title match against AJ Styles and Dragon Lee next week.

Becky Lynch heads to the ring. After the commercial break, she is joined by The Kabuki Warriors (Asuka and Kairi Sane), Nia Jax and Lash Legend. Becky says she has the best lawyers in the country regarding losing the Women's Intercontinental Championship and that she has been advised not to talk about it, and that the decision will be overturned, she will get the title back, and WWE will be better for it. She also says WWE will be a lot better off when she gets rid of AJ Lee once and for all, stating that AJ made a mistake coming back and a bigger mistake costing her the title, then says she made the biggest mistake of all by locking herself in a cage with her. She puts the rest of her team on a pedestal before Rhea Ripley, Iyo Sky, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss and AJ Lee show up. AJ Lee says the old her would have torn Becky's face off, but therapy works. She then says that Becky is insecure. AJ says that she knows who she is and does not have to bark like a chihuahua; she bites, and Becky reminder her of that by lighting a fire on her that her team pours gasoline on. She then threatens to let the old AJ out and do whatever she wants to Becky. AJ hopes to sit on a pedestal and laugh as Becky falls down, then Rhea takes the microphone and smacks Nia Jax in the face with it, starting a brawl. The brawl ends with Rhea and Charlotte booting Nia and Lash out of the ring before Iyo Sky takes out Becky's team with a top rope moonsault to the outside as Becky retreats.



Solo Sikoa beats Penta by referee stoppage after Penta is unable to continue following a hurricanrana off the barricade. Solo Sikoa advances in the Last Time is Now Tournament.

We look back on John Cena's surprise return in the 2008 Royal Rumble.

Backstage, Maxxine Dupri is talking with General Manager Adam Pearce. Maxxine says that she will continue to put in the work and that she will call Natalya, then Ivy Nile shows up and confronts Maxxine as she walks away and says that the Women's Intercontinental Championship is hers. Maxxine then runs into Roxanne Perez and Raquel Rodriguez, and Roxanne says that she can take the title off of her before Adam Pearce intervenes. Roxanne and Raquel leave, then Pearce tells Maxxine she should call Natalya now.



We hear from Stephanie Vaquer, who states that everyone told her not to trust Nikki Bella, yet she still allowed Nikki to be her friend only to be betrayed. She says that she knows Nikki's game and that Nikki does not know who she is messing with. She asks Nikki if she really wants to face her in the ring before telling her that she will see her at Survivor Series.

Logan Paul and Drew McIntyre beat The Usos (Jimmy and "Main Event" Jey Uso) in a WarGames Advantage Match. During the match, Bron Breakker and "Big" Bronson Reed show up to help up Logan Paul on the outside, then "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes and CM Punk show up to brawl with them. Jey Uso hits everyone on the outside with a dive over the top rope, but this allows Logan Paul to pin Jimmy Uso with a schoolkid pin to win the match and the one-man advantage. After the match, everyone brawls with each other. Roman Reigns shows up and fights his way to the ring, then stands tall with his team in the ring. Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman show up, and Lesnar humorously slips as his pyro goes off before joining his team for a five-on-five brawl that truly ends the show.

Layin' da SmackDown - SmackDown recap for November 24, 2023

Bianca Belair, Becky Lynch, Shotzi and Charlotte Flair head to the ring to start tonight's show. Becky says it has been a while, then says that she has come around to SmackDown and that she agreed to team with everyone because the answer will always be yes when it comes to getting a piece of Damage CTRL (Bayley, Iyo Sky, Dakota Kai, Kairi Sane, Asuka) at WarGames. Bianca says they have a solid team, then says that Damage CTRL has gone low for quite some time, but with two rings, one cage, no disqualifications and plenty of weapons, they are not only going lower, they are going to war. Shotzi, who looks forward to the carnage, says Damage CTRL sought to humiliate her but only made her more dangerous and unbreakable, and she cannot wait to unleash her frenzy of madness on them. Charlotte says WarGames is not only a new beginning for the four of them, but the end of Damage CTRL, who show up as if on cue. Only Bayley shows up, however, and says she never thought she would be Charlotte and Becky on the same side "fighting the good fight" and knows that they will take shots at each other due to their egos. She also says that being a mom has made Becky soft and "okay with being picked last," then calls Damage CTRL the only real time walking into WarGames. Charlotte wants to know where the rest of Damage CTRL is, then Becky says she came to Chicago to fight, not to talk, and challenges Damage CTRL to a match with her and Charlotte tonight. Bayley says this is what she wanted, then says that Becky and Charlotte's team will implode tonight.



Backstage, Bayley tells the rest of Damage CTRL (Iyo Sky, Dakota Kai, Kairi Sane, Asuka) that Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair's team will implode and cease to co-exist tonight, then asks who will be in tonight's match with Becky and Charlotte tonight. Everyone agrees that Bayley should be in the match with Asuka.

The Judgment Day (Finn Balor and Damian Priest) retain the Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship against The Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) after Rhea Ripley distracts the referee. After the match, Bobby Lashley is furious backstage.



Charlotte Flair shows up and says that she got with General Manager Nick Aldis and made Bayley's challenge official. Becky is confused by this, as Charlotte did not consult her first and asks Charlotte why she called her when she does not trust her, but Bianca tells Becky that she made that call, not Charlotte. Becky says she does not want to fight everybody, then says she is getting ready.

We hear from Dragon Lee, who says that lucha libre has been everything to himself and his family and that if one is not strong in heart and mind, one will not find success. He says failure was not an option, and he adapted, learned and refused to stay down. He says he represents his family before him as the evolution of lucha libre.



It's time for The Grayson Waller Effect. Tonight's guest is the returning Kevin Owens, who is really Austin Theory in a Kevin Owens tanktop making fun of Owens. After Theory makes it to the ring, the real Kevin Owens shows up and says his suspension ended today, and after realizing they are making fun of him, threatens to punch them both again. Grayson says there are two of them and one of Owens, and says if it were not for Owens, he would have beaten LA Knight. Owens hints that if you keep mentioning someone's name, they are bound to show up, then LA Knight shows up when Theory mentions him. LA Knight says Grayson and Theory stepped in it tonight, and that they could not help themselves tonight only to get caught, and while he was going to let Owens punch them, they kept mentioning him, and they got caught again. He says Kevin Owens and Austin Theory make no difference in Grayson Waller losing to him, saying it is just a fact of life. Grayson says he can beat Knight, but Owens agrees with Knight. This leads to a brawl, and Owens and Knight clean house.



Kevin Owens and LA Knight beat Grayson Waller and Austin Theory.



Backstage, Becky Lynch is met by Bianca Belair, who tells her that Charlotte Flair was right and was not trying to step on her toes, then tells Becky to put her differences with Charlotte aside. She also says that she needs them to be on the same page for WarGames. Becky says she is cool.

Carlito heads to the ring. Carlito says that tomorrow will be his first match in a premium live event since 2010, but all he has been able to think about is Rey Mysterio and getting his hands on Santos Escobar for injuring Rey. Carlito issues a message to Escobar, telling him that he made a big mistake before Escobar shows up. Escobar tells Carlito that Rey Mysterio is his family, not Carlito's, and if it were not for Carlito, his family would still be together, and blames him for Rey's career being over. Escobar and Carlito brawl on the outside, and officials have to run out and stop it. Escobar heads to the back, but he returns through the crowd and attacks him on the outside.



Backstage, Santos Escobar attacks Carlito again, but Dragon Lee shows up and attacks Escobar before Escobar can break Carlito's arm.

Pretty Deadly (Kit Wilson and Elton Prince) beat The Brawling Brutes (Ridge Holland and Butch) with a schoolkid pin from Wilson to Butch following the Bitter End on Prince after Ridge walks out on Butch during the match.



Backstage, Shotzi talks with Charlotte Flair, thanking her for helping her when she was at her lowest due to Damage CTRL (Bayley, Iyo Sky, Dakota Kai) shaving her head. She says that Becky is just as hurt by the past as she was and that a few words could change things like it did for her.

Backstage, Kayla Braxton interviews General Manager Nick Aldis, who says that Carlito is badly hurt and cannot compete tomorrow night, and that his match with Santos Escobar is postponed. Dragon Lee shows up wanting to teach Escobar a lesson tomorrow night, and Nick Aldis tells him he has his match.



We hear from The Judgment Day (Finn Balor, Damian Priest, Rhea Ripley, "Dirty" Dominik Mysterio, JD McDonagh). Rhea Ripley says The Judgment Day runs all of WWE, and Finn Balor calls tonight's match a warm-up. Dominik Mysterio laughs at the fact that Jey Uso took out Randy Orton for more than two years, and JD McDonagh says that Jey Uso's team is better off staying at home. Priest says he cannot help but agree, and says that if Jey does not take Orton out, The Judgment Day will make sure Orton does not have another comeback.

Before the next match, Charlotte Flair is met by Becky Lynch, and both of them tell each other that they are on the same page.

LA Knight advertises Black Friday deals on WWEShop.com.

Damage CTRL (Bayley and Asuka) beat Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair after Charlotte Spears Asuka into Becky as Becky pins Becky following the Manhandle Slam. After the match, Becky and Charlotte argue before Becky walks off.





This week on The SmackDown LowDown: Santos Escobar! Butch (and Bobby Lashley)! Damage CTRL (Bayley, Iyo Sky, Dakota Kai, Kairi Sane, Asuka)!

Rhino vs. Sheik Abdul Bashir vs. Alex Shelley, 2008

We hear what members of the Impact Wrestling are thankful for.

We hear from Eric Young and Deaner. Deaner says that Big Kon and Alan Angels are asking questions and thinking last week is the end, but he has told them it was just a minor setback. Eric Young says that it is not the end and only the beginning, and that to get better, you must sometimes go back to where it all began.

Kurt Angle's Thanksgiving Dinner, 2007

We hear from Mickie James, who says that she should have known that she would have had to stand opposite "The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo, and if this is the way it has to be, then "Let's go." Mickie and Purrazzo square off next week.

Robbie E vs. Grado in a Turkey Suit Challenge, 2016

In footage from after Over Drive went off the air, Rich Swann and Scott D'Amore confront Bully Ray, and D'Amore throws his jacket and radio at Bully Ray and kicks the Call Your Shot Gauntlet trophy so hard he breaks it. Rich Swann stands by Josh Alexander, and Bully Ray is soon forced to the back by referees as Alexander hugs his wife. Rich Swann and Bully Ray are scheduled to square off next week.



Rockstar Spud's Thanksgiving dinner, 2013

We hear what more members of the Impact Wrestling are thankful for.

We find out that during the countdown to Over Drive, Kenny King attacked "Speedball" Mike Bailey on the outside as Rich Swann got the win. We then hear from Kenny King, who says that he is focused on "Speedball" Mike Bailey is fake and a fraud behind all of his mannerisms. He says that he is going to be on Mike Bailey and that he is waiting for him to drop his mask so everyone sees who he really is and he exposes him.

The Turkey Trot, 2017

We hear what Delirious and Yuya Uemura are thankful for. Delirious speaks in his usual gibberish while Uemura speaks in Japanese as he says that he is thankful for Impact Wrestling.

We hear from Steve Maclin, who says that he is being held captive by his own company and that while the old men make the decisions, the young men like him wage war. He then says he is captive on the sidelines as Frankie Kazarian challenges for the World Championship, and says Kazarian has stepped into a war where he has no idea what he is getting into, and he is not sorry for what he will do to Kazarian.

Dynamite Thanksgiving - Dynamite recap for November 24, 2021

Before the next match, MJF shows up and tells CM Punk that he hurt his feelings last week when he extended his hand, saying it was almost as bad as the time CM Punk took his ball and "went home like a little bitch." MJF then says that everyone loves "The Pipebomb," calling it CM Punk's best moment only to say that all of his moments are the best MJF moment, because he is not a one-trick pony like Punk. He says that he respects Punk, including the fact that he is straight edge, then says he could not imagine someone straight edge like Punk "looking like a meth addict," and says if he had Punk's face, he would need eight whiskey shots to look at himself in the mirror. MJF also takes offense to Punk not wanting to wrestle him, but chalks it up to Punk "not wanting none," then says he is not just a big fish in a small pond and that he looks like a minnow, then says he will finish him faster than his UFC career. He then says Punk's watch will say "Outta time" instead of "Clobberin' time," and says that while Punk drops pipebombs for retorts, he drops nukes. CM Punk finally takes the microphone. Punk tells MJF he is so disappointed in him, but then give props to MJF for introducing himself, as he thought MJF stood for "My Jealous Fan." He says that Punk never brought up MJF by design, as he did not want to feed his rotten ego and that he is already in his head due to the poster of him on his wall. He says that he had heard of him, and last week, he shut him up without saying a word. Punk said MJF had a whole week only to come out with the lowest hanging fruit for zingers, and says that instead of revolutionary, "he's just a less famous Miz." MJF says Punk's retorts were "almost what he wanted," which encapsulates Punk's AEW career because nostalgia is a drug that misconstrues memories and Punk is nostalgia. He admits that he was fan, and felt that nobody could touch Punk because he was the best. He said that felt that way until Punk had difficulty beating the easiest competition and saying anything relevant. MJF then says Punk's breath "smells like shit" because he has been kissing ass, then calls Punk's promos robotic before saying Punk has gone soft, has gray hairs and is the one who needs to go to sleep. He then says he is looking at "PG Punk" instead of CM Punk and asked what happened to the Punk he knew, saying he might as well be preaching hustle, loyalty and respect. MJF says that problem is that he can see Punk and see through him, saying he is back for a boatload of money instead of the younger wrestlers and stayed out of the business for seven years either because he made stuff nobody bought or was terrified he could never hang. He then tells Punk he should be scared, because even though he should be showcased as the number one guy and has the opportunity to prove everyone right, the question of whether or not that can happen in a month or a year is there. MJF then says the envy is there and that Punk hates him because he represents everything he hates about the business, simply because he was born for it while Punk was a dumpy reject from Chicago who had to work his tail off. He then says it eats Punk that after all he has given for the business, he has been nothing more than second-best his whole career, whether it was with John Cena or Triple H, and now that he is in his ring, it will be no different. He says that Punk may claim to be the best in the world, he is better than Punk and Punk knows it. Punk says there is some truth to what MJF has just said, and that he would not know how the people would react or if he had it, but he is not scared any longer, especially of MJF. Punk says he sold out Madison Square Garden while MJF was on Rosie O'Donnell's show, then tells him that he will help him get on the New York Times in the obituaries and that he cannot "back up shit without his back-up." Punk says he looked at AEW and knew it was a place he wanted to be, and took on the heart and soul of AEW in Darby Allin and beat him without having to cheat while MJF so too busy talking he didn't know he was replaced by Dr. Britt Baker, D.M.D. He then says that MJF has talked too much and that they have wasted the fans' time, then says Chicago is the second city because it rebuilt itself from its own embers and that he will proudly wear number two. He also says that MJF will only be number one when everyone waits around long enough for Tony Khan to have a daughter MJF can marry, and says a better welcome back gift to Chicago is punching MJF in his "needle dick." MJF teases throwing down with Punk by taking off his jacket, then rolls out of the ring.



CM Punk beats QT Marshall. During the match, Aaron Solo and Nick Comoroto get ejected from ringside when they get involved in the match.



Backstage, Tony Schiavone interviews Christian Cage, Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus. Christian says they have a ton of momentum and their confidence has grown to the point that they feel unbeatable. Because of that, good things have happened. He says Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus are #1 contenders for the AEW tag team titles, and this time, they have him and momentum, and he will make sure they win the tag team championships.

Backstage, we hear from Eddie Kingston in catering. As he says he misses Jon Moxley, 2point0 (Jeff Parker and Matt Lee) and Daniel Garcia show up and apologize to Eddie and say they have read his recent article, then says he is not a hungry man anymore. As Jeff Parker tells Eddie Kingston that they can help him, Daniel Garcia blinds Eddie with his own coffee, and multiple people have to break up the ensuing brawl.

The Gunn Club (Billy and Colten Gunn) beat Bear Country (Bear Boulder and Bear Bronson). After the match, Sting shows up. Austin Gunn charges at Sting, but he gets cut off at the pass by Darby Allin, who gets in the ring with Sting and forces Billy and Colten to retreat.



AEW Battle of the Belts is live on TNT on January 8th!

We hear from Adam Cole and Bobby Fish. Cole says the last few weeks have sucked with the matches they have been losing, and says that he and Fish are best friends. Suddenly, Best Friends (Chuck Taylor, Orange Cassidy, Wheeler Yuta) show up. As Chuck Taylor says they are the Best Friends, Adam Cole says "Best Friends" is just a name and that Orange Cassidy is a bad friend and Wheeler Yuta has no friends. Orange and Wheeler confront them, and Cole tells them they will pay for their disrespect.

Backstage, Tony Schaivone moderates Dante Martin's contract signing for Team Taz (Taz, "Absolute" Ricky Starks, Powerhouse Hobbs, Hook). Lio Rush is not interested in being part of Team Taz, but Dante Martin signs the contract. Dante Martin is now part of Team Taz.



Thunder Rosa beats Jamie Hayter to advance in the TBS Championship Tournament after fending off the interference attempt by Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. and Rebel. After the match, Jamie Hayter pushes Britt Baker away before heading to the back.



Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews Chris Jericho. Jericho is not able to see much before 2point0 (Jeff Parker and Matt Lee) and Daniel Garcia interrupt, and Jericho tells them they should go to the hardware store so they can protect themselves when Eddie Kingston beats them up. Jericho then says Matt Lee has a square head and looks like an ugly Spongebob Squarepants, which starts a "square head" chant, then tells them that if they interrupt him again, he will knock their teeth down their throat. Jeff Parker tells Jericho to watch his mouth as they leave.

Backstage, Tony Schiavone has Thanksgiving dinner with Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. and Rebel. Britt says that despite everything that has gone wrong tonight, she is still AEW Women's World Champion. Tony Schiavone then says that Riho was never eliminated from the Casino Battle Royal at All Out and that she has a match with Britt on Friday, and if Riho wins, she gets a shot at the AEW Women's World title. Britt Baker tells Tony Schiavone he ruined Thanksgiving and is not invited to the Christmas party, then gets irritated at the fact there are ice cubes in the red wine.

Bryan Danielson beats Colt Cabana with the Lebell Lock after stomping Colt's head in. After the match, Tony Schiavone interviews Bryan Danielson. Danielson says that it is funny that when he debuted in Chicago, Illionis, he got a much different reaction, and says that the fans are fickle. He says he is not fickle and that he did what he said he would do to Colt Cabana and also kicked his teeth out. He then says there are a few Dark Order members from Atlanta, Georgia, and dares them to challenge him so he can kick their heads in on the way to "Hangman" Adam Page. Suddenly, Adam Page shows up. Adam Page says Chicago holds a special place in his heart and says he cannot think of a better time and place to defend the AEW World Championship than right here and right now. He then says that Adam Page challenging him after he already had a match is "coward shit," not "cowboy shit." Page says that if Danielson does not want to wrestle him, he will not leave without a fight, and he will give Danielson the first punch. Danielson tells Page not to insult him like that, then slaps him anyway. Both men exchange shots and brawl, and Danielson runs away as Page goes for the Buckshot Lariat.





We see a video package for Kris Statlander vs. Ruby Soho in the TBS Championship Tournament.

"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes and Death Triangle (PAC, Penta el Zero M, Rey Fenix) beat Malakai Black, Andrade el Idolo and FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) in a match that sees Cody throw his weight belt into the crowd only for the belt to be thrown back into the ring and also sees Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard stare down only to punch Jose out when he gets involved after Malakai Black spits the black mist into PAC's eyes.

Swann and Mack have none of it, and Bey tells Swann to give him a call if he survives Shamrock.

Before the next match, "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson shows up and says he and Doc Gallows have had a "Good Brother party" as of late, but now that "All Ego" Ethan Page has taken Gallows out, that leads to tonight's match. After stating that The North (Ethan Page and "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander) will get a tag team title shot if Ethan Page beats his hand-chosen opponent, "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles' old "Get Ready To Fly" music plays, then Swoggle shows up as "'The Wee-Nomenal One' AJ Swoggle."

Swoggle beats "All Ego" Ethan Page after Anderson stops "The Walking Weapon" Josh Alexander from interfering in the match. (Had Page won, he and Alexander would have gotten a tag team title shot.)



Back at wrestler's court, Tommy Dreamer asks Johnny Swinger if he really thought he could get away with shooting John E. Bravo, but Swinger asks Dreamer if he ever thought anybody else was capable of shooting John E. Bravo. Father James Mitchell is on the witness stand. He says that virgin blood is highly prized for its magical property by some people, and is asked if he has suspected anybody of shooting John E. Bravo. Rosemary is on the witness stand. She admits that she did not love John E. Bravo and that his blood would have made her powerful. John E. Bravo then shows up from the hospital and confronts Rosemary. John E. Bravo then says that Rosemary did not shoot her, because he could smell who shot him even when it was dark.

Back at wrestler's court, Tommy Dreamer gives Larry D a lie detector test. It is revealed that Larry D did not shoot John E. Bravo, but following a spray of the perfume, it is revealed "Lawrence D" did it after John E. Bravo took Rosemary from him. Meanwhile, John E. Bravo and Rosemary look at each other with disgust.

Fallah Bahh vs. Shawn Daivari ends in a no-contest after both men are attacked by Eric Young and Joe Doering. Afterwards, Eric Young says his vision is clear and that world is sick, and that he and Joe Doering are the cure. Suddenly, Rhino shows up and fights both men, but he is quickly outnumbered. Eric Young then says he warned the world and that the world belongs to him and Doering.



Backstage, Crazzy Steve and Swoggle talk about how ridiculous they look, then TJP shows up and thanks Crazzy Steve. Brian Myers then shows up and insults everyone before saying Steve can't win the X Division title and that Steve and TJP are clowns.

Backstage, Deonna Purrazzo and Kimber Lee meet with Father James Mitchell for help with Susie and Su Yung. Mitchell says he can do it for a price, but if they need his help, they've got it.

Next week: XXXL (Larry D and Acey Romero) vs. Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley)! Crazzy Steve vs. Rohit Raju for the X Division Championship! Jordynne Grace and Jazz vs. Renee Michelle and Killer Kelly! Willie Mack vs. Chris Bey!

Rich Swann retains the Impact World Championship against "The World's Most Dangerous Man" Ken Shamrock after rolling backwards out of a sleeper attempt to pin Shamrock's shoulders to the mat. After the match, Shamrock punches the referee in the gut, then Sami Callihan shows up after being ejected early in the match to hit Swann with a package piledriver. Sami Callihan then pulls out a bat, and as he points it at Swann, Eddie Edwards shows up, but Shamrock and Sami quickly outnumber him. They tape one of Eddie's arms to the top rope, then Sami Callihan bloodies the side of Eddie's face with the baseball bat. Security and referees show up, as does D'Lo Brown, who confronts Callihan only to be knocked out by Shamrock. Scott D'Amore tries to restore order as the show ends.

After Dark - AEW Dark recap for November 24, 2020

Anthony Ogogo guests on commentary for the next seven matches.

Big Swole beats Vipress with the Cloverleaf.



The Dark Order (Alex "3" Reynolds and John "4" Silver) beat Lee Johnson and Aaron Solow.



We see "The Librarian" Leva Bates at the library. She knocks two pictures of herself with Peter Avalon off a shelf, then says testosterone makes great men into morons and says that she has not only embraced her librarian gimmick, she can now dedicate time to herself, prove that smart can equal strong and bad-ass, and write her own story now that she has dropped the dead weight.

Trent beats Michael Nakazawa. During the match, Nakazawa is caught with three bottles of oil, but he manages during the match to drench himself with one bottle behind the referee's back. Unfortunately for Nakazawa, that does not allow him to win the match with the thong claw.



Red Velvet beats Tesha Price.



Backstage, Alex Marvez interviews Shawn Spears and Tully Blanchard. Spears takes offense to his victory against Scorpio Sky controversial and threatens to knock his teeth down his throat, then says that there is no instant replay in wrestling and that he and Tully find the weakness in others and expose it for their benefit, which is something that happens in everyday life. Spears then says Scorpio Sky had his chance after taking the high road only to lose, and advises Scorpio that nice guys finish last in the wrestling business and that the distance one prepared to go - which he says Scorpio is not prepared to go - is what matters.

Lance Archer takes a downed Ariel Dominguez into the ring and slams him into the mat as Jake "The Snake" Roberts watches, then Jake says that he has always considered himself "an honest prick" before he and Archer brag about the damage that they have done to other people throughout their careers. They both agree that the real problem is not who they are, and dare anybody to get into Archer's face and show who they are.



Private Party (Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy) beat VSK and Baron Black.



KiLynn King beats Rache Chanel.



Sammy Guevara beats Marko Stunt. After the match, Guevara says Marko threw everything at him, but it was not enough, for he is still here, and says that 2020 has thrown everything at him and he is still here. Guevara says that there is nobody who does it quite like him in the ring, and that he is the best ever every single night. He says that sooner or later, everyone will see that no matter who comes out to the ring, there is no bigger or brighter star than him, for nobody can outshine him, for everyone will learn that he is not only the best, but that he is a champion here in AEW.



Penelope Ford beats Dreamgirl Ellie.



Ivelisse and Diamante beat Lady Frost and "The Bionic Beast" Jenna.



"Absolute" Ricky Starks guests on commentary for the next four matches.

Brandon Cutler beats Adam Priest.



It's time for The Waiting Room. Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. says the response to her show has been overwhelming, and that she is also quite the comedian and not just the dentists, as she has gotten correspondence from all over the comedy world. She also congratulates Jon Moxley and his wife on their new baby, then hopes that Moxley does not no-show the delivery date like he did his recent contract signing. She then welcomes her next guest: Tay Conti. Conti says her favorite competitors in the women's division besides herself and Anna Jay are Serena Deeb and Red Velvet, and says she hopes to face Hikaru Shida. Reba and Britt soon get their first mail call, which is from "Tony S. in Atlanta," asking Tay about her relationship status. ("Tony S." is an obvious shot at Tony Schiavone.) Tay says it's nobody's business, but Britt insists on asking. Tay makes it clear that it is nobody's business, and this leads to Reba intervening by bringing out The Acclaimed (Max Caster and Anthony Bowen), which leads to Caster performing for the crowd to close the segment out.



The Gunn Club (Billy, Austin and Colten Gunn) beat Cezar Bononi, KTB and Seth Gargis.



Jurassic Express (Jungle Boy and Luchasaurus) beats Panda X-Press (Super Panda and Ultimo Panda).



TheHybrid2 (Angelico and Jack Evans) beat Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr. with a Navarro Death Roll from Angelico to Pillman.

The Acclaimed (Max Caster and Anthony Bowen) beat Alex Chamberlain and Damian Fenrir.



Matt Sydal beats Alan "5" Angels despite the attempted interference from Preston "10" Vance.



"Pretty" Peter Avalon - wrestling under his "Pretty" gimmick for the first time in AEW - beats Fuego Del Sol, earning his first win in AEW history with a record of 1-27-2.



The Dark Order (Evil Uno and Stu Grayson) beat the team of "The Bad Boy" Joey Janela and Sonny Kiss and Chaos Project (Luther and Serpentico) in a three-way tag team match.

Survivor Series 2019 - The LIVE Results



Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews Paul Heyman, who says that tonight will either be a miracle where Rey beats Brock Lesnar after what Lesnar has done to his son, or a massacre from Lesnar which WWE has never seen and will never see again.

NXT's men's team for Survivor Series is revealed by "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels: Tommaso Ciampa, Keith Lee, Matt Riddle, Walter and Damian Priest.



Backstage, Cathy Kelley interviews Adam Cole, who says that he has had an impressive week despite last night's loss. He says that while Pete Dunne is a great champion, he has never had a week like his, as The Undisputed Era (Cole, Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong) is the measuring stick of NXT. Even though Dunne is on his brand, he will treat him like he would a Raw or SmackDown Superstar tonight.

Dolph Ziggler and Robert Roode win the ten-team Inter-Brand Tag Team Battle Royal, last eliminating Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins and Montez Ford) following a top rope splash from Ford to Ziggler.

Team NXT (Rhea Ripley, Bianca Belair, Candice LeRae, Io Shirai, Toni Storm) beats Team SmackDown (Sasha Banks, Carmella, Dana Brooke, Lacey Evans, Nikki Cross) and Team Raw (Charlotte Flair, Asuka, Kairi Sane, Natalya, Sarah Logan) in a 5-on-5-on-5 Women's Survivor Series Match with Rhea Ripley, Candace LeRae and Io Shirai as survivors. During the match, Candice LeRae and Io Shirai are injured, and both women have to be helped to the back, seemingly taking them out of the match until near the end. Nikki Cross is eliminated after Bianca Belair uses the bottom rope for leverage. Charlotte Flair is eliminated after she forces Asuka out of the ring, causing Asuka to spit green mist into her face. Asuka leaves alongside Charlotte. Toni Storm is eliminated following a simultaneous Sharpshooter-Banks Statement combination, and Bianca Belair is eliminated soon afterwards with a Hart Attack from Sasha and Natalya. After this, Sasha turns on Natlaya as they propose teaming up on Rhea Ripley, eliminating Natalya. Near the end, LeRae and Shirai return as Ripley is stuck in the Banks Statement to pull her to safety, putting themselves back into the match. LeRae distracts the referee so that Shirai can hit Sasha with a springboard drop kick, allowing Ripley to hit Riptide to win Team NXT the match.





Backstage, Seth Rollins meets with Kevin Owens, wanting to know where Owens' loyalty lies. Owens says his sudden appearance at NXT TakeOver: WarGames 2019 last night was for getting revenge on The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong), then says Raw needs him, not NXT. He then asks Rollins if he needs to question his loyalty before leaving.

Roderick Strong beats Shinsuke Nakamura and "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles after Strong throws Styles out of the ring following the Phenomenal Forearm on Nakamura to win the match.



Backstage, The Miz meets with Daniel Bryan. He says that there is something indescribable about "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt that feels like pure evil. He tells Daniel to win for everyone's sake. Daniel simply tells him to get out of his face.

"The Fiend" Bray Wyatt retains the WWE Universal Championship against Daniel Bryan by pinfall with the Mandible Claw.



Backstage, Sarah Schreiber interviews Rey Mysterio. Rey says it has been 15 years since he first fought Brock Lesnar, but some things never change, including Lesnar. He says that he is a new Rey Mysterio, and he will do things to Lesnar tonight that the old him would never have done. He almost considered retiring a few months ago, but he changed his mind due to the love of his son, and instead of telling his son to look away, he hopes his son is watching when he swings a steel pipe at Lesnar and massacres him.

TLC: Tables, Ladders & Chairs is live on the WWE Network on December 15th!

Team SmackDown (Roman Reigns, Braun Strowman, King Corbin, Mustafa Ali, Shorty G) beats Team Raw (Seth Rollins, Drew McIntyre, Kevin Owens, Randy Orton, Ricochet) and Team NXT (Tommaso Ciampa, Damian Priest, Matt Riddle, Keith Lee, Walter) in a 5-on-5-on-5 Men's Survivor Series Match with Roman Reigns as sole survivor. Walter - who has been undefeated since his WWE debut seven months ago and is the current WWE United Kingdom Champion - is the first man eliminated in less than five minutes into the match, and the elimination is met by "bullshit" chants from the crowd. Riddle eliminates Orton with a schoolkid pin, then gets hit with an RKO and is pinned by Corbin. Strowman is eliminated by count-out after colliding with Keith Lee and eating a Claymore from McIntyre. Ali is eliminated by Rollins after Corbin distracts and turns on him. Corbin is eliminated after Roman Reigns hits him with a Superman Punch and a Spear after he gets sicked and tired of Corbin bossing the rest of the team around. Roman Reigns and Keith Lee - the last man to be eliminated - fist bump after the match.



We hear from Becky Lynch, who says that "The Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler has been training and preparing while she has criss-crossed the world, but no amount of training will destroy what she has learned about herself. She tells Baszler that she will have to destroy her completely in order to beat her and take away what she has worked for. As for Bayley, she has not overlooked her, and while she did not want to hurt her after seeing herself in Bayley, she will hurt her tonight.

Brock Lesnar retains the WWE Championship against Rey Mysterio in a No Holds Barred Match despite Rey Mysterio and his son Dominick teaming together against Lesnar. During the match, Dominick runs into the ring with a towel, and when Lesnar grabs Dominick, Rey hits Lesnar in the crotch with a steel pipe before Dominick hits Lesnar with a low blow. Both men team up against Lesnar, with Rey hitting Lesnar with a steel pipe and Dominick hitting Lesnar with a steel chair, but Dominick is hit with a German Suplex and Rey is hit with an F-5, allowing Lesnar to retain.



"The Queen of Spades" Shayna Baszler beats Bayley and Becky Lynch with a Kirifuda Clutch to Bayley. After the match, Becky Lynch pulls Baszler's legs out from under her as Baszler stands on the announce table to celebrate, and puts Baszler through the table with a leg drop.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for November 24, 2018

Before the next match, Matt Taven asks if the match he is in is a joke, and says he knows The Boys are trying to stick up for Dalton Castle before telling them he and TK O'Ryan will hurt them and put them on the shelf like they did Castle. He tells TK O'Ryan to go up to the commentary table and talk about how great he is, as he can beat them all by himself and teach them a lesson their father should have taught them: you don't mess with the leader of the pride, especially when he is the real ROH World Champion. He then hits one of The Boys with his championship belt, starting the next match.

Matt Taven beats The Boys after Vinny Marseglia drags one of The Boys underneath the ring.

We hear from "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes, who talks about his time in ROH as well as how the odds have always been against him when it came to reclaiming the ROH World Championship, and says when it comes to a one-on-one match for the title against Jay Lethal, he would not want it any other way.

Ian Riccoboni interviews "The Octopus" Jonathan Gresham in the ring. Gresham says that it is obvious that his tag team partner Jay Lethal has a ROH World Championship match at Final Battle, leaving him without a match. He says that he wants to prove he is the best pure wrestler in the world, and at Final Battle, he is issuing an open challenge to anyone in the world at Final Battle so he can prove he is best pure wrestler in the world. Suddenly, Zack Sabre Jr. shows up on the video screen to announce that he will take on Gresham at Final Battle. Afterwards, Gresham tells the fans to tune in to Honor Club so they can watch him make Zack Sabre Jr. tap out.

We see "Almighty" Christopher Daniels on the phone in a hotel room. After he hangs up, he tells "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky that they have contracts, but he does not, because they are tag team champions. Daniels tells Kazarian and Sky that he will figure something out.

Kelly Klein beats Jenny Rose to qualify for the Four Corners Survival Match for the ROH Women of Honor World Championship at Final Battle. During the match, Sumie Sakai sits in a steel chair on the stage to get a closer look.

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) vs. The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) ends in a double disqualification after Jay Brisco and Matt Jackson throw steel chairs at the partners of the other team at the same time. Afterwards, Jay Brisco and Matt Jackson fight each other with the steel chairs, then the chairs get thrown at referee Todd Sinclair, who gets knocked out. After this, both team brawl until security shows up and stops everything. Suddenly, SoCal Uncensored ("The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky) show up, and Scorpio reminds everyone that this match was supposed to decide #1 contenders for the tag team titles, but both teams lost. He says this does not work for the fans and that it definitely does not work for SoCal Uncensored. Kazarian mentions that the last time he held one of the titles, The Young Bucks took it from them in something other than an ordinary match that sent both him and "Almighty" Christopher Daniels to the hospital. He also reminds The Briscoes that SoCal Uncensored is still at war with them before declaring that they are ready to defend the tag team titles at Final Battle, but not in a ordinary match. Instead, it will be in a Ladder War.

Next week: Jeff Cobbs vs. Josh "The Goods" Woods! "Almighty" Christopher Daniels vs. Kenny King! Guerrero Maya Jr. and Stuka Jr. vs. SoCal Uncensored ("The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian and Scorpio Sky)!

Final Impact - Impact Wrestling recap for November 24, 2016

Jeff Hardy shows up to start tonight's show. While he is thankful for his family, he is not exactly here alone as his fans are here, and he is thankful for them as well. He is not thankful for the DCC ("The Cowboy" James Storm, Eddie Kingston, Bram) for wrecking his brother Matt Hardy's memory. The DCC appear on the TitanTron and tell Jeff that nobody can help him, then accept his challenge and make it a no-disqualification match, which Jeff accepts. The DCC then show up and fight him, but Jeff overpowers them long enough to escape and start an "Obsolete!" chant.



Back in Cameron, North Carolina at the Hardy estate, Senor Benjamin reads a Playboy, Vanguard-1 drinks a lemonade and Matt picks tangerines.



Team Go For Broke (DJ Z, Mandrews, Braxton Sutter) beat The Helms Dynasty (Trevor Lee, Andrew Everett, Marshe Rockett) and the team of Crazzy Steve, Abyss and Decay in a Team X Gold match.

Senor Benjamin helps Matt Hardy with the tangerine sorbet when a car pulls up, containing Kevin Keenan, the referee from The Final Deletion. He says Reby Sky sent him to jog his memory.



Maria Kanellis-Bennett, "The Miracle" Mike Bennett and Laurel Van Ness have their Thanksgiving dinner, with Allie as a server and dressed as a Pilgrim. Laurel and Maria mock Allie, and Laurel Van Ness says that she has invited Braxton Sutter to dinner. Everyone talks about what they're thankful for, but when Allie says what she's thankful for, Maria shuts her down. Also, Laurel Van Ness tries to hit on Braxton Sutter. Allie finally snaps and calls Laurel Van Nes a big meanie and says there's nothing vegan she can eat at the table, and almost pies her before Laurel ducks and the pie hits Maria instead. Mike Bennett doesn't make it much better when he takes his finger and licks the pie that was on Maria's face.



We hear from Ethan Carter III and Eli Drake before their match.

Ethan Carter III beats Eli Drake. As per match stipulations, Eli Drake cannot speak for the rest of the year.



Reby Sky enlists the help of Dr. Maximillian to hypnotize Matt Hardy...and it works. Matt Hardy is "Broken" again...but when he snaps his fingers again, it doesn't.



Al Snow and Mahabali Shera beat The Tribunal (Basile Baraka and Judge Baron Dax) by disqualification after The Tribunal use their belts as weapons, which they continue to do after the match.



Robbie E and Grado find out from Aiden O'Shea they have a Turkey Suit Challenge match, with the loser wearing the turkey suit.

Robbie E beats Grado in the Turkey Suit Challenge, which means that Grado has to wear the turkey suit. Grado and Robbie E both dance in the ring.



Rosemary tells Gail Kim that she, Crazzy Steve and Abyss make history when they make some decay, and that she will do the same to her in a steel cage.

Bram beats Jeff Hardy in a no-disqualification match with the help of Eddie Kingston and "The Cowboy" James Storm.



Matt Hardy finally regains his memory after being struck by lightning by the seven deities.

Raw Deal - Raw recap for November 24, 2014

Triple H and Stephanie McMahon show up for the first time since their team's loss at Survivor Series last night. They verbally crap on the crowd and mention what Sting did, then Stephanie McMahon breaks down again and Triple H has to step in on the mic for her. HHH calls the crowd "bullies" for wanting to make Steph cry, and still think they're better than the crowd for knowing the business side of things. He then questions who is going to be the new General Manager, then questions why Sting did what he did last night, saying he put the demise of the WWE in motion with his actions. After asking the WWE Universe what they'll do with their lives when WWE dies out, HHH says that the WWE Universe will be begging for him and Stephanie to come back. All of a sudden, Daniel Bryan shows up and leads a "Yes!" chant in the ring to stick it to the former holders of the keys to the WWE kingdom. He gets in Triple H and Stephanie's way as they try to walk up the ramp to "Yes!" chant in their faces, then returns to the ring to continue the chant.



After the break, Daniel Bryan announces he's in charge of Raw for tonight. His first action? Trotting out Team Authority (Seth Rollins, "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry, Luke Harper, Kane and Rusev). He puts Seth Rollins in a handicap match against Dolph Ziggler and John Cena...and his two partners will be chosen by the WWE Universe. It's either the team of Mark Henry and Luke Harper, Henry and Kane...or Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury. As for Kane, he's made a concessions guy, and turns from Corporate Kane to Concessions Kane. Rusev is given the choice of either defending the United States Championship against the rest of the WWE or reciting the American pledge of allegiance to the WWE Universe. Luke Harper is put in a match against Dean Ambrose with the Intercontinental Championship on the line. Mark Henry is put in a match against Ryback...and it happens right now. No sooner does Ryback's music hit that Ryback goes right to work on Henry before the bell rings, and four officials have to separate Ryback from Henry.

Ryback beats "The World's Strongest Man" Mark Henry with just one Meat Hook.



Triple H and Stephanie McMahon run into Vince McMahon. Dear old Dad gets cheesed off with both of them and expects them to fix the mess they've gotten themselves into before they slink into the limo with them to head back home to Stanford.



Dean Ambrose vs. Luke Harper for the WWE Intercontinental Championship ends when Harper shoves Ambrose into the ref, causing the ref to call for the bell. Ambrose then beats up Harper, hits Dirty Deeds on him into a steel chair, then readies the table and ladder. All of a sudden, Ambrose is struck from behind by Bray Wyatt. Wyatt then causes chaos at ringside by burying Ambrose underneath a few commentary table chairs.



Santino Marella makes a surprise return along with Larry the Cable Guy from Jingle All The Way 2. Before he can do some comedy, Gold & Stardust (Goldust and Stardust) show up.



The Miz and Damien Sandow retain the WWE Tag Team Championships against Gold & Stardust (Goldust and Stardust) after a Skull Crushing Finale and pin from The Miz despite Damien Sandow doing all the work (and a Figure Four Leg Lock).



The concessions manager gives Kane crap. She keeps him away from the deep fryer due to his enjoyment in burning things and puts him in charge of chips.

Rusev and Lana complain about their fate in the ring, and are about to leave when Daniel Bryan shows up on the TitanTron. He tells Rusev to either recite the American pledge of allegiance or face the whole roster with his United States title on the line. In order to force the former option, he sends out Sgt. Slaughter to supervise. Midway through the pledge, Lana retreats and Rusev confronts Sgt. Slaughter. Suddenly, Zeb Colter and Jack Swagger show up, and Swagger forces Rusev to retreat. Swagger, Zeb and Slaughter put their hands over their hearts and say "We The People."



Santino Marella and Larry the Cable Guy meet Kane at the concession stand. Santino gets mustard on his hand. Also, Kane is a fan of Larry.

Fandango beats Justin Gabriel.



Big Show torments a backstage worker before the break.

Tomorrow on Main Event: Dean Ambrose vs. Kane!

Big Show shows up. He has heard the response to his actions last night, and says that he does hate Triple H and Stephanie McMahon...but last night, he panicked. He thought Team Cena would lose, and says the crowd should at least "owe him a mulligan," Then he turns on the crowd and says he is the Big Show and that he deserves respect. He calls out any "cowards" in the back who want to call him a traitor to show up and say it to his face. Erick Rowan shows up, and Big Show calls him "an upside-down Sheamus." He mocks Rowan, then tells him the ring is no place for him and that he should go back to the back. Rowan takes the microphone and tells him "I...don't...like...BULLIES!" before striking back, forcing Big Show to retreat.



Backstage, Seth Rollins implies to Joey Mercury and Jamie Noble that he doesn't believe they stand a chance in the ring. Enter Dolph Ziggler, who shows up, tells Joey and Jamie that he does, and that he's asked his 1.4 million Twitter followers to vote for them.

Before AJ Lee takes on Brie Bella, AJ congratules her and her sister Nikki Bella in the most sarcastic-jerkish way imaginable by saying that Brie has proven she is a "bigger skank than [her] sister" and pronounces "Let's be honest" as "Les-bi-awn-est," referring to the kiss Brie gave her before Nikki took the Divas title away from her at Survivor Series.

Brie Bella beats AJ Lee after a distraction from her sister Nikki Bella. After the match, AJ Lee grabs the mic and says that since they want to cheat their way to the top, she has news for them: the two of them aren't half the woman she is, and that talent isn't sexually transmitted.



Larry the Cable Guy and Santino Marella guest on commentary for the next match. When The Bunny dances with them before the next match, Adam Rose pulls him away by the ears.

Tyson Kidd and Natalya beat Adam Rose and The Bunny as The Bunny is pre-occupied outside the ring, proud of himself for pulling Adam Rose's foot out from under him from outside the ring...when he thought it was Tyson Kidd's.



Renee Young interviews Ryback. The Big Guy's in the mood for food...and he also pokes fun at the concession stand.

Kofi Kingston, Big E Langston and Xavier Woods bring in a new day...next week!

Ryback heads to the concession stand, and Kane tries to mess with him. It works against Kane...horribly.



Renee Young interviews John Cena and Dolph Ziggler. Cena says that with a team like him and Ziggler, you can expect the show to be stolen.

This Friday on SmackDown: Miz TV with Big Show!

Seth Rollins' tag team partners for the next match are revealed by Daniel Bryan to be none other than J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury).

John Cena and Dolph Ziggler beat Seth Rollins and J&J Security (Jamie Noble and Joey Mercury) with a simultaneous Attitude Adjustment and Zig Zag and a double pin. After the match, Daniel Bryan rushes in and tosses Seth Rollins back into the ring and into a waiting Cena and Ziggler. After Cena and Ziggler are done with him, they and D-Bry lead a "Yes!" chant until a familiar smartphone sound fills the arena and the lights go on and off. The anonymous Raw General Manager - computer, podium, Michael Cole reading his will and all - is back next week with Cyber Monday, and promises "order and discipline will return."



Here are the top 10 moments from tonight's show!

Total Divas Island - Total Divas recap for November 24, 2013

Nikki Bella tells her sister Brie about John Cena's co-habitation agreement. Nikki is worried about where she and Cena stand in their relationship, especially when Brie doesn't know what to make of it.

Vinny and Ariane haven't been intimate lately due to Ariane's possible endometriosis...and due to Vinny's huge, erm, manhood. Vinny recommends talking to a sexual health professional.

Nikki Bella has checked into a hotel in order to make a clear decision concerning John Cena's co-habitation agreement. She talks to her mother on the phone, who reminds her that this protects John and is drawn up by his lawyers due to his past experiences, which Nikki wishes John would let go of so they won't affect her.



Ariane, Eva Marie and Nattie fool around backstage.

As Brie watches Bryan from backstage, Ariane and Trinity practice their dance move. Ariane mentions her lack of intimacy to Trinity, which explains (to Trinity) why Ariane is so snappy all the time.

T.J., Alicia Fox, and Eva Marie are at the Performance Center. Eva Marie is trying to emulate Nattie, and asks T.J. for some pointers. Nattie shows up, and is apprehensive upon seeing Eva and T.J. as T.J. training one of the newbies is out of the ordinary out of him.

Nattie doesn't feel right about T.J. training Eva Marie, as Nattie is the only woman he's ever trained with. T.J. explains it, but Nattie is still a bit apprehensive.

Ariane sees a gynecologist to get advice on dealing with her painful intercourse. After an exam, she finds out there's nothing in her body that grossly resembles endometriosis, bringing Ariane back to square one.

Nattie finds out that T.J. is training with Eva Marie at the Performance Center again.

Brie (and Josie!) head to the park only to find out from Bryan that he can't meet her there, due to a bunch of interviews he has to do. Bryan promises to make it up to them.



Nattie, feeling weird about the situation with T.J. and Eva Marie, goes to the Performance Center. Eva Marie is pressing T.J. against her in a headlock while wearing a push-up bra. To make T.J. and Eva Marie feel awkward, she trains with Fandango and doesn't tell him her true intentions in order to make T.J. and Eva Marie feel awkward, and it works...a bit too well. Nattie finally comes clean, and T.J. immediately heads home. Eva Marie has no idea what's going on, and neither does Fandango.

Nitro-Glycerin - Monday Nitro recap for November 24, 1997

The New World Order are seen backstage heading to the ring. "Hollywood" Hulk Hogan holds up a sign from the crowd saying "Bischoff owns Vince" in the ring, and Eric Bischoff says that the nWo has business to take care of. Curt Hennig is congratulated for retaining the WCW United States Heavyweight Championship, and Scott Hall is congratulated for winning the World War 3 match last night. Hogan says that Bischoff has proven he is the supreme power on the planet of wrestling, it's nice to be his main henchman, and he now has total control with the nWo, with Scott Hall dominating World War 3 raising the bar. He says he has the deck stacked in his favor. Since he's in a good mood, Hogan then challenges anyone in the building and puts the WCW World Heavyweight Championship on the line. All of a sudden, The Giant shows up with WCW Executive Committee head J.J. Dillon, answering Hogan's challenge. Hogan says he'll beat The Giant until he is well done. J.J. Dillon says that The Giant is not medically cleared and cannot let him wrestle, but The Giant insists on wrestling Hogan for the belt, which still has his nameplate on it. J.J. Dillon says that if he is willing to indemnify WCW and not hold them responsible if he gets injured again and sign the paperwork stating just that, he'll let him wrestle. The Giant tells Hogan he'll see him later tonight.

The Steiner Brothers (Rick and Scott Steiner) retain the WCW World Tag Team Championships against the debuting Disorderly Conduct (Tough Tom and Mean Mike). Raven's Flock (Raven, Perry Saturn, Billy Kidman, Sick Boy, Van Hammer, an unknown member) are seen sitting in the front row.

We see a performance by The Nitro Girls.

Chris Jericho is seen answering questions in an interview for WCWWrestling.com backstage.

Booker T beats Meng with a roll-up. Meng attacks Booker T after the match and puts him in the Tongan Death Grip after the match, and even after Stevie Ray hits Meng in the back of the head with a wooden chair, he still has the hold on Booker T. Nevertheless, Meng is angered, and The Barbarian shows up to attack Stevie Ray from behind. Meng lets go of Booker T and puts Stevie Ray in the Tongan Death Grip, and keeps it locked in into the break.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund interviews head of the WCW Executive Committee J.J. Dillon. It doesn't take long for the two of them to find Raven in the front row. All of a sudden, Scotty Riggs shows up and jumps the guardrail, and it is noticed that he is dressed very similarly to Raven as he sits down in the front row, signifying that Riggs is the newest member of Raven's Flock. Dillon says that a courier has hand-delivered him a contract signed by Raven to his offices at the CNN Center with a lot of initials and dates on it. Raven says he has signed the contract, but he will not conform to his rules. He put certain stipulation in the contract allowing him to sit where he wants, wrestle who, where and how he wants, and be paid whatever he wants. Dillon is not thrilled with the stipulations, but regards Raven as under contract to WCW. He also wants an explanation for Riggs' actions just earlier, but doesn't get much of one and Okerlund says that the inmates may be running the asylum.

Before the next match, Raven is announced to face "The Crippler" Chris Benoit, but Raven sends out Sick Boy as his representative instead.

"The Crippler" Chris Benoit beats Sick Boy with the Crippler Crossface after the rest of Raven's Flock (Raven, Perry Saturn, Billy Kidman, Scotty Riggs, Van Hammer, an unknown member) tries to interfere. After the match, the numbers game finally catches up to Benoit.

An announcement paid for the nWo mocks "The Living Legend" Larry Zbyszko in typical nWo fashion. After the announcement is over, Zbyszko gets in the ring and says the nWo wated a lot of money on that footage. He calls out Scott Hall, saying he wants his challenge answered so he can wipe his face on the mat like he did ten years ago. Instead of Scott Hall, leaflets drop from the roof of the arena, all of them featuring photos of Eric Bischoff with his leg in the victory position on Zbyszko's chest at Halloween Havoc. Zbyszo continues to call Scott Hall out, and says he will not leave the ring until he gets him. Bischoff shows up instead, and says Scott Hall made history by winning last night's World War 3 Match, saying it is current history and not Zbyszko's history as "we can't keep track of that." Bischoff says that Scott Hall is a busy man and is defending the tag titles with Kevin Nash all over the world (despite Hall and Nash not being the official tag team champions). He then says that Zbyszko has never been that good a wrestler, even by today's standards, and that he can't even beat him. Zbyszko dares Bischoff to enter Larry Land, but Bischoff says he's too ugly, too fat and way too slow, and that he doesn't want any of him. Bischoff then accepts the challenge, and Zbyszko dares Bischoff to get in the ring with him. Numerous security guards from both the arena and WCW hold both men back before they can go at it. Zbyszko says they have a verbal agreement and that he will have WCW Executive Committee head J.J. Dillon sign it so fast, but Bischoff tells Zbyszko "Bite me" as he leaves.
