REGAL GETS FIRED AND A XTREME SUPERSTAR RETURNS
RAW opens with William Regal standing in the middle of the ring, Regal forces Lillian Garcia to sing "God Save the Queen". The Michigan fans booed Regal and Regal got on the microphone screaming that he will not be disrespected. Regal even threw a couple fans out of the building. Regal ordered security to escort the fans out of the building. Regal threaten to "turn the lights off" tonight all before the WWE Chairman Vince McMahon showed up to address the actions of Regal. McMahon claimed the fans phoned and emailed WWE headquarters demanding that Vince McMahon relieve Regal of his duties. McMahon said that he has found Regal's action to be absolutely reprehensible and McMahon decided that Regal is to step down as General Manager immediately. McMahon said Regal will still be a competitor on the RAW brand and there will be a new RAW General Manager appearing next week.
After Regal's unhinged behavior, Vince McMahon has decided to relieve Regal of his General Managerial duties.
Later in the night Jeff Hardy comes out after serving his suspension. Hardy explained that he made a mistake and he paid for it but Jeff Hardy is back and he's got a job to do and that job is to become the WWE Champion. Randy Orton came out and said that Jeff Hardy will never be WWE Champion because Jeff cant get past his addictions and that the higher ups would never want a person like Hardy to represent their company. Hardy challenged Orton to a match tonight in the main event. The main event began and right after the bell Montel Vontavious Porter came out and attacked Jeff Hardy allowing Randy Orton to pin Hardy for the 1-2-3. Orton and MVP started beating down Hardy before John Cena ran out and even upped the odds. JBL then came out and pounded on Cena before Triple H came down to make the save. RAW goes off the air with all men brawling around ringside.
After serving his suspension, Jeff Hardy is back and he wants the WWE Championship!

VICKIE GUERRERO GETS AN ULTIMATIUM
SmackDown! opens with La Familia coming out in full force. Vickie Guerrero demands Tony Chimmel announce Edge as the "next World Heavyweight Champion". Edge says last week he went through 10 other men to EARN his spot in the main event of Judgment Day and he proved Teddy Long wrong. Edge said that on Sunday he's going to beat the Undertaker for the love of his life Vickie Guerrero. Vickie Guerrero says that the Undertaker's Hells Gate submission hold is barred and if the Undertaker uses it he will be stripped of the World Heavyweight Championship and Edge will win immediately. Theodore Long showed up and announced that he has a huge announcement to make. Before Long can make his announced Vickie yelled at Long for interrupting her and that Long should leave the building. Long reminded Vickie that he is still Co General Manger of SmackDown! and he gets 50/50 in everything that occurs on SmackDown!. Long said that he got a email from the WWE headquarters about the upcoming match at Judgment Day. Long said that the Board of Directors are concerned about Vickie's relationship with Edge and if it will benefit the future of SmackDown!. Theodore Long read the email saying "The Board of Directors want the best for the SmackDown! brand, Mrs. Guerrero has put herself and her personal relationships in front of her duties and have decided to take disciplinary action against Mrs. Guerrero. We have come to the conclusion that Mrs. Guerrero has two options, Mrs. Guerrero can either disband La Familia with Edge losing his World Heavyweight Championship opportunity and step down as General Manager of SmackDown! or Mrs. Guerrero can compete in her first wrestling match at Judgment Day teaming with Edge to take on the Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Championship". Vickie Guerrero yelled at Long for going behind her back and threaten to not compete Sunday freaking out Edge and the rest of La Familia. Vickie Guerrero threaten to fire Theodore Long but Long laughed before wishing Guerrero good luck on Sunday!. Later in the night we see Vickie Guerrero in her office with Edge freaking out about Sunday. Edge reminded Vickie that she's still in charge and tonight she could make the whole La Familia take on the Undertaker and the Undertaker wouldnt even make it to Sunday!. Vickie said thats a great idea and made the main event a 5-on-1 Handicap match. As La Familia is walking out to the arena, Kane took out both Bam Hardcastle and Chavo Guerrero without Edge and Vickie realizing. La Familia gets to the ring and the Undertaker came out to the ring. Curt Hawkins, Edge and Zack Ryder all lined up ready to fight the Undertaker but the lights went out and when they went back on Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder have disappeared. Edge realizing him and Vickie were on their own tried to run but the Undertaker chokeslammed Edge for the pin and to win the match. Vickie Guerrero sat in the corner screaming as the Undertaker stood in the ring.
the Board of Directors ordered Vickie Guerrero to team with Edge against the Undertaker at Judgment Day.

THEODORE LONG ON VIP LOUNGE; SAN DIEGO STREET FIGHT ANNOUNCED FOR ONE NIGHT STAND
Montel Vontavious Porter hosted the VIP Lounge with the guest being the Co-SmackDown! General Manager Theodore Long. Long comes out and makes a big announcement about One Night Stand. Theodore Long said that he lied about Vickie Guerrero having to wrestle to keep her job, Long said there was no email from the Board of Directors he just made that up so Vickie needed a reality check. Due to this he is facing actual disciplinary action and the Board has given Theodore Long two options just like Vickie did. Theodore Long must announce that Edge is the No. 1 Contender and will face the Undertaker at One Night Stand for the World Heavyweight Championship with two stipulations, a match of Edge's choosing and if the Undertaker loses he must leave the WWE. Also, Theodore Long must compete in a "San Diego Street Fight" at One Night Stand against a superstar of Vickie Guerrero's choosing. Vickie Guerrero comes out and tells Theodore Long that if he thinks karma is a b**ch, karma has nothing on Vickie Guerrero. Vickie Guerrero announces Edge will face the Undertaker in a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match. Also, Vickie Guerrero announced that Theodore Long will face off against....MONTEL VONTAVIOUS PORTER. Long was about to walk away and give up his position of General Manager before the Animal Batista showed up to defend Theodore Long saying that not only does SmackDown! need Long as General Manager, Theodore Long has been wanting to kick MVP's a$$ for years. Batista let Long know that he will be in his corner. Batista showed MVP what will happen to him if he touches Long before Batista destroyed the VIP Lounge set, piece by piece. MVP jumped out of the ring but the match is made official, Theodore Long vs Montel Vontavious Porter in a San Diego Street Fight. After the Board of Directors forced Theodore Long to face MVP at One Night Stand to keep his General Manager job, Batista came to Long's rescue and let MVP know he'll be in Long's corner during the San Diego Street Fight.

Later in the night Vickie Guerrero gathered all the ECW/SmackDown! Women and made an announcement that at Night of Champions, there will be a Diva Battle Royal with the winner being crowned the first ever WWE Divas Champions.

Yes, that Jimmy Kimmel. Batista and his underdog partners won the match after Batista came and dominated La Familia before hitting Bam Hardcastle with a huge Batistabomb.

JERICHO PUTS HBK THROUGH THE JERITRON
Chris Jericho hosted a special episode of the Highlight Reel with his guest being a hero of his and a mentor, Shawn Michaels. Michaels comes down limping showing the injuries from their Submission match at One Night Stand. Jericho immediately started belittling Michaels calling him a liar and that he's not really injured and he clearly tapped out at One Night Stand (the replay showed he didnt but the referee stopped the match anyway). Jericho said that Michaels is a cheating pathetic little worm of a human being and he's not the showstopper that he once was. Michaels started to speak his mind before Jericho attacked Michaels before the two started having an intense brawl befor Jericho hit Michaels with a Codebreaker. Jericho told Michaels that "the worst is yet to come" before he threw Michaels head first into the Jeritron 3000 screen. Jericho stood over Michaels who was on the ground before Jericho left the ring leaving Michaels to deal with his injuries. In a despicable act, Chris Jericho threw Shawn Michaels through the Jeritron 3000.
