We begin with a look at Maryse and her issues with Ted DiBiase. We also see how Yoshi Tatsu and Lucky Cannon have been hitting on Maryse because of the problems between Ted and Maryse.

We are live on tape from the internet and your announcers are Todd ‘Could Michael Cole retire too’ Grisham and William ‘Sunshine on your Tuesday Night’ Regal. Your hosts are Matt ‘After tonight, is it a plus one’ Striker and Maryse.

Matt Striker is in on the stage and he welcomes everyone to NXT. He brings out Maryse and Regal and Todd wonder what her decision is. Matt asks Maryse the big question. Maryse tell Matt to look at her. Nobody tell her what to do. She had lot of millionaires before Ted DiBiase and she can have a lot of millionaire after Ted DiBiase. If she has to choose the show or Ted, she chooses NXT.

It is time to bring out the rookies.

Todd sees Bryon’s ‘Saxout’ t-shirt and thinks it has to do with playing the saxophone.

Titus O’Neill has 9 points, Darren Young has 7 points, and Byron Saxton has 4 points. The other three rookies are looking for their first points.

This challenge is the Power of the Punch challenge and the highest score wins 4 points.

Regal wonders if he gets royalties from the phrase ‘power of the punch’.

Byron Saxton goes first and his total is 649.

Maryse tells Jacob that he can do better and please be a man. Jacob whiffs and he gets a 456.

Matt points out that William Regal would not be proud of Jacob.

Maryse and Todd both say that they could do better than some of the rookies.

Conor O’Brian is next and his total is 770.

Titus O’Neill is next and his score is 801 and he is in the lead.

There is only one man left and it is Lucky Cannon. Lucky does not take his robe off and he tells Matt that he is above this. He says that he is not here to play games, he is here to win championships.

Lucky gets disqualified and that means that your winner is Titus O’Neill and he now has 13 Redemption Points.

Lucky takes the mic from Matt and he says that this show is about him. He tells Maryse that she needs a man on her level and he says that he is that person.

Yoshi Tatsu comes out and Lucky wants to know what is wrong with him and he wonders if Ted knocked some sense into his skull. Lucky suggests that since he is main event talent, why not main event NXT tonight.

Yoshi accepts the challenge and then Lucky invites Maryse to watch from ringside.

It is time to take a look at the movie That’s What I Am featuring Randy Orton.

We go to commercial.

We are back and JTG comes out and then we look at the bet between JTG and Vladimir Kozlov last week.

JTG is in the ring and he introduces his rookie ‘Head Crack Novak aka Mr Redemption; Jacob comes out to the ring and he looks like a white version of Shad Gaspard. The crowd is shocked at the new look Jacob Novak.

Jacob tells JTG that he feels like there are a lot more pros in WWE who could make him a star. With him, it has been five weeks and he hasn’t earned a single redemption point. Jacob says that he doesn’t even like the Yankees. He says that he knows how people feel about him and he knows how Mr. Regal feels about him too. Jacob says that he knows that if Regal had time with him, he could make him a star. Jacob asks Regal what he thinks.

Regal does not respond and then Novak says that he has been doing a lot of talking and now he will show Regal what it means to be a star.

MATCHES

•Brie Bella def. Divas Champion Eve
•Sin Cara def. Primo
•The Corre def. "The Apple"
•Jerry Lawler def. Jack Swagger
•Five-Man Gauntlet Match ended with John Cena and R-Truth in a Double Disqualification

Raw results: Unwelcome additions
By: Greg Adkins April 11, 2011
Tags: Raw: April 11, 2011
BRIDGEPORT, Connecticut – On an emotional evening for the WWE Universe, the WWE Champion's plans proved too clever by half, the former Divas Champion appeared to see double and the Rated-R Superstar offered up one heartfelt farewell address.

Five-Man Gauntlet Match ended with R-Truth and John Cena in a Double Disqualification; Extreme Rules match arranged (WATCH: PART 1 | PART 2 | EXCLUSIVE | PHOTOS)
Five Superstars. One opportunity. The math added up to one grueling Five-Man Gauntlet Match as John Cena, R-Truth, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler and Randy Orton vied for the opportunity to compete against WWE Champion The Miz at the Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

First up in the random selection, Randy Orton and Dolph Ziggler squared off. During their match, members of The New Nexus, sans CM Punk, distracted The Viper long enough for Ziggler to wrap up a pin. Afterward, the men who had each been punted in the skull by Orton, lashed his beaten frame with a vengeful ferocity.

Entering next, R-Truth showed the bleach blond bomber what was up by eliminating him in fourth place. Truth’s former tag team partner, John Morrison, then jumped into the action. Leveraging his familiarity with The Shaman of Sexy, the rapping Superstar overcame the athletic assault.

Finally, it was John Cena’s turn. The Cenation Commander-in-Chief set aside his friendship with Truth and assailed him with a barrage of heavy hits. To his credit, though, Truth held steady, unwilling to relinquish the golden opportunity before him. As the two traded blows, however, they were attacked by WWE Champion The Miz and his lackey, Alex Riley, leading to a double disqualification.

Although the WWE Champion claimed there was no No. 1 contender, the Raw General Manager had other ideas. The anonymous GM announced that there were now two No. 1 contenders for the WWE Championship and that the match at Extreme Rules would be a Triple Threat Match between WWE Champion The Miz, Truth and Cena. Afterward, The Cenation Commander-in-Chief punished Riley, and Truth tackled Miz. Then the rapping Superstar and Cena found themselves in a shoving match before Truth exited the ring.

World Heavyweight Champion Edge announced his retirement (WATCH | PHOTOS)
The illustrious career of 11-time World Champion Edge has come to an end. The Rated-R Superstar told the WWE Universe that, due to injury, he can no longer compete in the ring and will retire from competition.

After more than 13 years, The Ultimate Opportunist went out on top as the reigning World Heavyweight Champion – and offered an emotional farewell to his legion of admirers and fellow Superstars.

Jerry “The King” Lawler def. Jack Swagger; Extreme Rules match announced (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Michael Cole is the only undefeated Superstar on the WWE roster. Crazy? You bet. The “rat bastard” broadcaster’s perfect record of 1-0 will be on the line again, however, when he teams with Jack Swagger against Jerry “The King” Lawler & Jim Ross in a tag team match at Extreme Rules. 

Lawler was allowed to name the match after defeating The All-American American in singles competition. As he and Swagger faced off, Good Ol’ J.R. and Cole looked on from their respective corners. Ross assisted his longtime friend with a well-timed distraction, allowing King to win, and prompting Cole to slap Swagger. As the cowardly announcer scurried off, his WWE Hall of Famer rival gleefully dropped his Extreme Rules bombshell.

The Corre def. “The Apple” (WATCH | PHOTOS)
Santino Marella enlisted three Superstar allies to exploit emerging cracks in The Corre once and for all. The Italian introduced “The Apple,” or Allied People Powered by Loathing Everything (The Corre stands for), consisting of Daniel Bryan, Mark Henry & Evan Bourne.

Unfortunately for the newly formed foursome, The Corre took a bite out of their alliance, overcoming their differences to suppress The Apple onslaught.

Sin Cara def. Primo (WATCH | PHOTOS)
A week after wowing the WWE Universe with a high-altitude debut, Sin Cara cemented his international celebrity status with an impressive victory over Primo. During the high-flying bout, his Puerto Rican opponent used some pretty punishing chops. The masked Superstar, however, flipped the script on Primo and nailed him with one last inspired aerial from atop the turnbuckle.

Brie Bella def. Divas Champion Eve (WATCH | PHOTOS)
In Italian, Bella means “beautiful.” In WWE, though, it’s come to mean something downright ugly. In her match against Divas Champion Eve, Brie Bella resorted to lowdown trickery to capture the Butterfly Title. After she and her sister, Nikki, failed to capitalize with “Twin Magic,” Brie took advantage when her twin nonetheless distracted Eve long enough for her to pin the lovely Latina.

Five-Man Gauntlet Match arranged
There’s no shortage of ambition in WWE. When John Cena expressed interest in battling WWE Champion The Miz again for another opportunity at the title, four other Superstars quickly joined the chorus, including Randy Orton, John Morrison, Dolph Ziggler and R-Truth.

Each man made their case for a title opportunity, until the anonymous Raw General Manager intervened. The GM debuted a new concept, a Five-Man Gauntlet Match, initially pitting two randomly selected Superstars and allowing the winner to continue on to face the next random opponent. The Superstar who can go the distance would become the No. 1 contender for the WWE Championship and will face The Miz at the Extreme Rules pay-per-view.

Indy promotion blasts Scott Hall over incident
Posted by Corbin Nordhoff on 04/11/2011 at 10:43 AM

Top Rope Promotions owner Steve Ricard sent out this statement regarding the Scott Hall incident:

Top Rope Promotions has been holding family oriented wrestling shows for 30 years now, and on our 30th Anniversary event, we brought in one of the biggest names in pro wrestling, Scott Hall (aka Razor Ramon).

We drew a packed house and a good majority of them were there to see Hall. Hall and his people down in FL had all claimed he was clean and good to go. His flight and hotel were pre paid, and his appearance fee was demanded upon arrival at the airport (which he asked for within 3 min of being picked up).

Hall had arrived in a wheel chair with 3 bottles of prescription pills in his posession. Hall had performed an interview with our local newspaper The Herald News around 6 PM on Thursday night, saying how much he was looking forward to coming to the show, and how he was clean. Less then 24 hrs later, he showed up in the state he was in, demanding his appearance fee. Right off the bat, we were in a bad situation.

Having Hall at the building, already pre paid with his appearance fee, hotel, flight, etc. He even harassed my driver in the process. Hall was persistent to appear on the show. His heart was in the right place, unfortunately I can't say the same about his mind or his body.

Throughout the night he made threats to numerous members of my staff, as well as myself demanding more money, demanding to go to the ring when he wanted to etc. He was also threatening to kill me if I "screwed" him over. I'm 31 years old and I should be in no circumstances, babysitting someone in there 50's.
Hall made at best, an embarrassing performance in the ring and for the fans who came to see him, trashing matches that were on the show before him and addressing the crowd as if we were in England.

Neither Hall, nor anyone who helped line up the date, or any of his close friends or agents have called to apologize or offer a refund for his "less then stellar" appearance. He showed his true colors and who he was this past Friday night. If he's upset that we're airing a stream of this atrocious appearance, maybe he should issue an apology to the fans, the promotion, and the workers of the company. One would only assume that no one that night got what they paid for, myself included.
