Former ECW Champion James "The Sandman" Fullington was arrested on Sunday night for an incident that occured at a New York City restaurant. Yonkers police say that when officers arrived at the restaurant, the 45-year-old wrestler was flinging glasses from a tray at employees.
A police spokeswoman says the 6-foot-4-inch, 280-pound Fullington also threw several glasses at police, injuring two officers.
Charges against Fullington include felony second-degree assault. He has been ordered to undergo a psychiatric evaluation.
For those of you wondering what happened to Hardcore Holly after Cody Rhodes turned on him at the pay per view costing them the Tag Team Championships, Mike Johnson is reporting that the WWE sent him home due to some heat he has on him after an unidentified incident. There were recent rumors saying that he was going to be released from the company, but they are simply rumors at this point and he has not been released. He has been taken off the road though to take care of some personal issues and there's no time frame on when he might return to the company.
Lance Cade def. Paul London Beth Phoenix def. Kelly Kelly John Cena & Cryme Tyme def. JBL & World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase Paul & Katie Lea Burchill def. Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston & WWE Womens Champion Mickie James D-Lo Brown def. Santino Marella World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk vs. Batista (no-contest)
UNCASVILLE, Conn. - One night after The Great American Bash, Monday Night Raw was still embroiled in the disorder that has defined the show since Mr. McMahon was sidelined by injury. As rumors swirled about that Shane and Stephanie McMahon were currently in the process of searching for a new Raw General Manager, World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk defended his title against Batista in a match that saw involvement from Kane, JBL and John Cena. The anarchy escalated to the point that Cena and Batista, two Superstars who normally respect one another, found themselves trading blows at the end of Mondays Raw.
Big Red Monster Mash Before the World Heavyweight Title Match could even begin, Kane emerged and attacked Batista, leading CM Punk to enter the fray and attack the Big Red Monster. After Kane was escorted out of the arena, the match began, but was quickly ended due to interference from JBL, who was bitter that Batista was receiving his second World Title Match in as many nights. As The Animal battered the self-made millionaire, JBLs Great American Bash opponent, John Cena, rushed to the ring. Though the Chain Gang Commander only intended to get further payback on Layfield, he accidentally leveled Batista, leading to a brawl between the two athletes. In spite of the presence of four legitimate contenders during the nights main event, CM Punk held onto his championship gold for another night. (WATCH)
Six-Man Rematch JBL and Cenas rivalry carried over into an official match as well: A rematch from last weeks Raw between the team of John Cena & Cryme Tyme and JBL & World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase. Though ailing from his NYC Parking Lot Brawl with Layfield at The Bash the night before, Cena fearlessly pursued his pay-per-view opponent. But when the self-proclaimed wrestling god escaped from ringside, the Chain Gang Commander turned his rage against the World Tag Team Champions by performing a double FU on the two and pinning Ted DiBiase for the win.
It was an especially rough night for Cody Rhodes, as earlier in the program he suffered a slap from Jerry The King Lawler in retaliation for the disrespect the World Tag Team Champions showed toward Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
True Lies Though Chris Jericho decimated Shawn Michaels in their match at The Great American Bash, it was Y2Js protégé, Lance Cade, who experienced a win on Raw when he faced Paul London. After the match, Jericho entered the ring to show the WWE Universe footage from the night before when he further injured Michaels right eye. (WATCH)
Jericho claimed that HBK was suffering a cracked rib and detached retina with the damage so severe, he was unable to see out of the eye at all, effectively ending Michaels career. Perhaps most detestable, Y2J stated that he always speaks the truth as opposed to The Showstopper, who he characterized as the most corrupt, immoral and destructive individual in WWE history. (WATCH)
Tainted Love As the WWE crowd came to terms with the exit of Shawn Michaels, they were comforted by the return of D-Lo Brown, who defeated Santino Marella. Watching the match at ringside was Beth Phoenix, who had defeated Marella in a rare intergender battle the week before. After Brown exited the ring victorious, The Glamazon entered for a confrontation with the Italian Superstar. The two struggled, then stopped suddenly and began kissing passionately only to pull away a moment later, confused and seemingly a little frightened.
While its still unclear whether Beth and Santino have won one anothers affections, there was no confusion about the winner of The Glamazons match with Kelly Kelly. Beth showed that she is a formidable competitor no matter the gender of her opponent, utilizing her characteristic strength and ferocity to pin the other Diva as easily as she defeated Santino the week before.
Burchill Brutality Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston and WWE Womens Champion Mickie James have some serious competition for their titles in the form of the brother and sister team of Paul and Katie Lea Burchill. On Raw, the four faced off in an Intergender Tag Match. Though Kofi had defeated Burchill the week before with the help of Mickie James, this week saw the Burchills triumphant over the two champions as Paul pinned the Jamaican Superstar.
As noted on last Thursday's edition of iMPACT!, Lance Hoyt is now going under the name "Lance Rock." He was defeated by Matt Morgan shortly after Morgan defeated Jimmy Rave on iMPACT!. The TNA website is now referring to him as Lance Rock as well.
Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder def. Finlay & Hornswoggle Big Show vs. The Great Khali, Vladimir Kozlov, MVP & Shelton Benjamin (No Contest, Handicap Match) Natalya def. Cherry Vickie Guerrero def. Cherry Brian Kendrick def. Jimmy Wang Yang Umaga def. Mr. Kennedy WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison def. Jesse & Festus United States Champion Matt Hardy vs. Jeff Hardy (No Contest)
CHARLOTTE, N.C. On what should have been the happiest night of their lives, Edge & SmackDown General Manager Vickie Guerreros wedding reception was interrupted by WWE Champion, and Edges Great American Bash opponent, Triple H. The Game offered his gifts to the newlyweds, and then shocked the world when he revealed a video of the Rated-R Superstar and wedding planner Alicia Fox locking lips.
Earlier in the night, the seemingly happy couple was in harmony as they celebrated their nuptials, even taking time out of the reception for in-ring action. Edge donned a guest referee shirt as he helped Curt Hawkins & Zack Ryder defeat Finlay & Hornswoggle in a tag team encounter, spearing the Irishman to seal the win for his friends.
Moments later, after their first dance was interrupted by Big Show cutting in, the powerful pair placed The Worlds Largest Athlete in a 4-on-1 Handicap Match. Up against The Great Khali, MVP, Vladimir Kozlov & Shelton Benjamin, Big Show proved why he is still one of the toughest competitors in the world, fighting off the teamed assault before the match was ruled a no contest. After the match, however, Khali, MVP, Shelton & the undefeated Moscow Mauler attacked Big Show, leaving him down in the center of the ring.
Not to be outdone, Vickie Guerrero entered the ring for her bouquet toss, followed by Divas eager to catch the flowers. Before the GM could carry the tradition out, Michelle McCool attacked her Great American Bash opponent, Natalya, in response to Natalyas attack last week. An annoyed Guerrero ordered McCool out of the arena, and after Cherry caught the bouquet, Vickie put the soft-spoken Diva up against Natalya.
For the second week in a row, Cherry submitted to Natalyas Sharpshooter. Adding insult to a painful loss, Vickie then ordered an immediate match with Cherry. The GM pinned Cherry to earn a victory in her wedding dress.
Also, as a wedding special attraction, longtime rivals of Edge, The Hardys, were put into action against each other, as United States Champion Matt Hardy took on his brother, Jeff. Before they faced off, the duo threw the wedding cake at Chavo Guerrero, igniting the anger of The Family. In the ring, the high-flying brothers put on a show in their home state of North Carolina, until the irate Family attacked to gain revenge for the cake-tossing.
But all the action couldnt make up for the storm created by the 12-time World Champion, Triple H. As Edge tried to explain his extra-curricular activities with Fox, Guerrero unleashed her heartache, shoving her new husband and screaming as SmackDown ended. With just two days until The Great American Bash, will Edges affair with Alicia Fox haunt him when he steps into the ring against Triple H with the gold on the line?
Also on SmackDown, Brian Kendrick defeated Jimmy Wang Yang in one-on-one action. Kendrick is sporting a new attitude and new look since being drafted, not to mention the large shadow of his bodyguard, Ezekiel. Will Kendricks new approach help him climb the SmackDown ranks?
WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison defeated Jesse & Festus on SmackDown, but with just two days before the Fatal Four Way for their gold, are Miz & Morrisons golden days numbered? Will Jesse & Festus transform from contenders to champions? Or will Finlay & Hornswoggle finally find their pot of gold? Will Hawkins & Ryders allegiance to GM Guerrero help them in their pursuit of the titles?
Finally, Mr. Kennedy is looking to make a name for himself on SmackDown, but the outspoken Superstar has run into Umaga. On Friday night, Kennedy appeared to have the match between the two won, but the Samoan Bulldozer blocked the Mic Check, and delivered a Samoan Spike to earn the victory. This rivalry is heating up, but can Kennedy find a way to take down the always dangerous Umaga?
William Regal's 60-day suspension for his second violation of WWE's Substance Abuse and Drug Testing Policy concludes tonight. Technically, he's eligible to appear at tomorrow night's multi-brand house show event at the MassMutual Center in Springfield, Mass.

Mike Knox def. Shannon Moore Evan Bourne def. Chavo Guerrero United States Champion Matt Hardy & Jeff Hardy def. WWE Tag Team Champions John Morrison & The Miz (non-title)
CHARLOTTE, N.C. If at first you dont succeed in bending an iron frying pan with your bare hands, just use it to smash your Great American Bash opponent over the head.
Thats exactly what Tommy Dreamer did to Mark Henry after the Worlds Strongest Champion displayed his raw power by easily bending a frying pan while Tazz and Henrys newest supporter, WWE Hall of Famer Tony Atlas, looked on.
The escalating tensions between the ECW Original and the ECW Champion will finally come to a head this Sunday in their title match at The Great American Bash. Match preview
Familiar scene With support from our fans in their home state of North Carolina, United States Champion Matt Hardy and his brother, Jeff Hardy, took on WWE Tag Team Champions John Morrison & The Miz. Boasting seven Tag Team Championships of their own, the reunited Hardys launched a well executed attack against their opponents.
As the match went on, the intensity level of both teams picked up with a few near pinfalls. But in the end, it was a Swanton Bomb from Jeff Hardy to John Morrison which set the stage for Matt Hardy to cover the Tuesday Night Delight. (WATCH)
Shooting star Ever since his ECW debut last month, Evan Bourne has been turning the heads of our fans and Superstars alike. In perhaps his toughest challenge yet, the young upstart took on former ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero. Despite Guerreros ring savvy and experience, Bourne was able to stun the former champion with a Shooting Star Press from the top rope, giving him the victory. (WATCH)
Hard Knox In a dominating display of force, Mike Knox maintained control over Shannon Moore throughout their entire match. In the end, The Reject couldnt summon enough to stop Knoxs onslaught and fell victim to a hard-hitting face plant for the loss.
WWE Womens Champion Mickie James def. Katie Lea Burchill (non-title match). Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston def. Paul Burchill to retain. Beth Phoenix def. Santino Marella in an intergender match. World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk def. Kane by count-out (non-title match). John Cena & Cryme Tyme def. JBL & World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase by disqualification
RALEIGH, N.C. At the top of Monday Nights Raw, Shane and Stephanie McMahon addressed the WWE Universe and the unpredictability and confusion that Raw has been embroiled in the past two weeks. Though they promised to take action if things dont change, that didnt prevent another hectic Monday Night Raw, as Kane continued his erratic behavior and the show crashed to a close with JBL appearing to crash a car into John Cena, who was propped up against another automobile. (WATCH)
Priceless Collision Earlier in the night, John Cena & Cryme Tyme had challenged JBL and two partners of his choosing to a Six-Man Tag Team Match. The self-made millionaire went for the best, recruiting the simply priceless World Tag Team Champions Cody Rhodes & Ted DiBiase, after they interrupted Kelly Kelly's pending match and intentionally humiliated Hacksaw Jim Duggan.
Even though he handpicked his partners, JBL ended up disqualifying his team in the course of the match. Cena pursued his Great American Bash opponent into the parking lot, where the self-proclaimed wrestling god was waiting to club the Chain Gang Commander with a tire iron. After knocking Cena unconscious, Layfield propped him up and attempted to smash a car into the prone Superstar. Luckily, John Cena managed to escape at the last minute and was only grazed, meaning that Cena vs. JBL will still take place on Sunday night. (WATCH)
The Animal to the Rescue The McMahons' warning also went unheeded by Kane, who continued to puzzle the WWE Universe, coming down to the ring with a mysterious bag and apologizing to Jerry The King Lawler and Michael Cole. Later in the night, the Big Red Monster asked World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk to face him one-on-one. But when the two met in a non-title match, Kane was counted out, and subsequently lost control, attacking the Straightedge Champion with a steel chair. Before much damage could be done to Punk, Batista rushed to the ring and attacked Kane to make sure that his Great American Bash opponent was in good shape to face him on Sunday. Batista then sent a clear message to his rival by refusing to shake Punk's hand. The Straightedge Superstar took exception to The Animal's competitive side and shoved his challenger, prompting Batista to plant him with a spinebuster. (WATCH)
Great American Clash Two other Great American Bash opponents also had brutal interactions outside sanctioned matches on Monday: Shawn Michaels and Chris Jericho. Before Raw could even properly begin, the two mens rivalry devolved into outright physical conflict which was quickly joined by Lance Cade, aiding Jericho in his attack on Michaels. Later in the evening, after Y2J defeated Paul London in singles competition, the Ayatollah of Rock 'n' Rolla had some choice words to share about HBK. The Showstopper came out to the ring in person however, and faced Jericho down one last time before their match on Sunday night, warning him that the worst is truly yet to come. (WATCH)
Quibbling Siblings In a non-title match, WWE Womens Champion Mickie James defeated Katie Lea Burchill, but soon afterward was subjected to the combined forces of Katie Lea and her brother Paul. As Paul grabbed onto Mickie, Intercontinental Champion Kofi Kingston rushed to the ring. The week before, Kofi had been subjected to Pauls post-match brutality, and this week, the Jamaican Superstar suggested an Intercontinental Title Match to settle their rivalry. Though hes still relatively new to Monday nights, Kofi persevered and pinned Burchill in this impromptu match.
Battle of the Sexes Mickie and Katie Lea werent the only Divas to compete on Raw, as Beth Phoenix answered the open challenge of Santino Marella. The Glamazon is known for her strength and physicality, and brought every ounce of it to her contest with the Italian Superstar, pinning him in this rare intergender match. (WATCH)
For the Love of a Woman Though Layla didnt compete, she was the cause of another of the nights unplanned altercations. Jamie Noble, who has been struggling to impress Raw Divas in recent weeks, set his charms to work on the 2006 Diva Search winner, promising to cut the next person he saw down to size. Unfortunately for Noble, the next person to come around the corner was Snitsky. Despite the obvious size difference, Noble stood up to the monstrous Snitsky, insulting him and leading him down to the ring. Unfortunately, Nobles confidence and heart wasnt enough to compete against his giant, nasty opponent, and Snitsky decimated his opponent.
In addition to Devon being injured during the ppv, Kaz's hip was apparently hurting backstage. One could assume it was from the huge leg drop he landed on Daivari. We'll keep you updated, but it isn't expected to be serious.
