Raw: 4/21/10
JBL is outraged over Danielson’s appearance on SmackDown!. Danielson had no right to assault him and compares it to a fan jumping the guardrail. JBL would’ve won Money in the Bank if it hadn’t been for Danielson and he demands retribution and punishment for Danielson. Austin comes out to address these concerns and informs JBL that Danielson has indeed been punished and has been suspended from Raw. JBL says it’s about time some justice is done around here. Austin isn’t done, however, and says JBL has a chance to punish Danielson some more. He can punish him in the parking lot. He can punish him at the concession stand. Hell, he can even punish him in the showers. This Sunday at Backlash, it will be JBL vs. Bryan Danielson and this time it’s going to be Falls Count Anywhere! JBL is irate.
Other proceedings:
Evan Bourne defeats Batista by DQ when Ted DiBiase attacks Bourne. Mark Henry comes in for the save.
AJ Styles cuts a promo on Christopher Daniels and his selfishness. All Daniels had to do was listen to Styles and things would’ve been different on Raw for the two of them. At Backlash, Daniels will pay.
R-Truth gets a win over Sean Casey.
Edge and Cash Inc. defeat Randy Orton and the Thug Life Soldiers.
The Miz gets in HHH’s face and tries to stir the pot between him and John Morrison.
John Morrison and HHH close the show with a face-to-face talk. John Morrison asks why HHH essentially stole his win in last week’s tag match. HHH defends himself by saying they won regardless and that should be that. Morrison says that it’s not always about HHH. He even goes as far as saying that maybe everyone else is right about HHH and is just trying to hog as much glory as possible. HHH says that he loves this business and is willing to do anything and everything to remain in it. He’s not going to be forced out just because a bunch of jealous people want to try and dictate his career. Like he told Miz, he’s earned everything he’s had and he plans on earning the WWE Title again this Sunday. Morrison declares that he’s not going to forced out of his spot either by anyone and that includes HHH. He’s even willing to prove that claim right now. They get in each other’s face and HHH shoves Morrison back. Morrison with a right hand to HHH! They brawl for a bit and Morrison gets HHH in position for Starship Pain but HHH bails. We close out the show with a staredown.

Superstars: 4/24/10
Kane is out to talk about his Money in the Bank win. In one instance, Kane was able to send a shiver down the spine of anyone looking to become World Heavyweight Champion. Jason Collins in particular has most likely been spending the last few days looking over his shoulder. Nothing will stop him from taking what has eluded him for far too long. Kofi Kingston comes out and stands in the ring with Kane. He says that Kane has no reason to like him much less do anything that Kofi asks of him. Kane has no doubt seen the way Kofi was screwed out of Money in the Bank. Last week was supposed to be the moment that would vindicate Kofi; where he would get back what was taken from him. Kofi essentially begs Kane to give him a match with the briefcase on the line. Kane asks Kofi if he even heard what he had to say just right now. Nothing is going to stop Kane from cashing in Money in the Bank. As unfortunate as it’s been for Kofi, Kane happens to agree with what Shad and the Board of Directors had to say about Kofi’s involvement at WrestleMania’s Money in the Bank match. Kofi reiterates that he’s begging for a match and even goes as far as saying ‘please’. Kane asks Kofi if it’s such a good idea considering there’s no way he’s 100% and reminds Kofi that he doesn’t show his opponents any mercy. If he were to agree to this match, Kofi’s quest for the title will be over before it even begins. Kofi doesn’t care as he was willing to go through hell twice in order to secure that briefcase. Kane points out that Kofi doesn’t know the meaning of the word hell. He agrees to give Kofi the match tonight but hopes that Kofi doesn’t wind up regretting it.
Other proceedings:
Jack Swagger shows up in a neck brace, hurt and busted up after last week’s Money in the Bank match. He berates Kane for chokeslamming him through a table and declares Kane unfit and unworthy of being a world champion. The fans don’t have to worry though. Their All-American American hero will recover and vows to make Kane pay.
Garrett and Alex Furious continue the apparent heavyweights vs. cruiserweights feud with a match where Garrett manages to pick up a win.
Cash Stevens vows to earn another Intercontinental Title match against Ian Moore.
Jason Collins defeats Rhyno when Jason Cross interferes. The dance continues.
Kane defeats Kofi Kingston by DQ when Jack Swagger attacks Kane, apparently miraculously healed. Shad distracts Kofi at ringside and Swagger takes the opportunity to nail Kane and deliver a gut wrench power bomb causing the DQ. Kofi tries to attack Swagger but falls victim to Shad assaulting him from behind. The show ends with Kane and Kofi continuing to get assaulted.
