Good card, and that's pretty much what I was expecting, but instead of a six-man tag team match, I had a Six-Pack Challenge for the Cruiserweight Championship. Anyway, here's how I would book it.
WWE Championship
Fatal Fourway
John Bradshaw Layfield vs. Booker T vs. Eddie Guerrero vs. The Undertaker
Winner: JBL via pinfall. He pins all three men after a belt shot by Orlando to The Undertaker, and a Double Clothesline from Hell by JBL to Booker & Eddie. BTW, does anyone else find it interesting that all the men in this match are Texans?
#1 Contender's Match
Kurt Angle vs. The Big Show
Winner: The Big Show via pinfall. Angle gets Luther Reigns and Mark Jindrak to wrestle The Big Show earlier that night in a Handicap Match, which The BS wins via DQ. Angle then feels so confident that he can beat Show, he has an open challenge, answered by Daniel Puder, who makes Angle tap out. Big Show then beats Angle with a Chokeslam. Kurt then tries to focus Reigns & Jindrak leading into the Rumble.
Kurt Angle's Hometown Challenge
Kurt Angle vs. Daniel Puder
Winner: Daniel Puder via submission. Angle taps out to save face for his #1 contender's match later that night. This allows Puder to claim he could feel the arm of Angle breaking, and he wants to make Angle tap out again. The two face off at No Way Out.
WWE United States Championship
Street Fight
John Cena vs. Jesus
Winner: Jesus via pinfall. Jesus basically destroys Cena in this, and becomes US Champion.
WWE Tag Team Championship
Rene Dupree & Kenzo Suzuki vs. Rey Mysterio & Rob Van Dam
Winners: Rene Dupree & Kenzo Suzuki via pinfall. RVD turns on 619, and the two finally have a blowoff match at No Way Out.
Handicap Match
The Big Show vs. Luther Reigns & Mark Jindrak
Winner: The Big Show via DQ.
Grudge Match
Heidenreich vs. Hardcore Holly
Winner: Heidenreich via submission. Complete squash. Heidenreich puts the finishing touches on Holly with the cobra clutch.
Special Guest Referee: Charlie Haas
Miss Jackie vs. Dawn Marie
Winner: Dawn Marie via DQ. Haas warns Jackie, but she keeps pushing it, and Haas DQ's Jackie which upsets her greatly.
WWE Cruiserweight Championship
Whoever Gets the Decision is Champion
Spike Dudley, Billy Kidman, Akio & Nunzio vs. Shannon Moore, Chavo Guerrero, Funaki & Paul London
Winners: Spike Dudley, Billy Kidman, Akio & Nunzio via pinfall. Nunzio pins Chavo, so he is the new Cruiserweight Champion. Paul London turns heel in the match and re-alligns himself with Billy Kidman.
