Kofi and Kaitlyn got on the PPV! With Miz talking about a donation to The USO. Yeah, why would you want your Divas champion. They are talking about Cena and Rock. Hmm, is that next?
OK, Lesnar vs. HHH is next. They showed Michelle Beadle in the crowd. She is a huge fan. Haven't seen Pee Wee Herman yet.
Shawn Michaels comes out first, big pop. Brock, with Heyman, came out next. Brock is jacked and frickin' scary looking. There were big fireworks when he jumped onto the edge of the ring. HHH came out next to green light. Something was all over his stomach, like on crime shows when they are looking for, er, juices on stuff. He wiped whatever it was when he got in the ring. And they are off!
They are brawling to start. Brock has red marks all over him. On a spot on the floor, HHH punched a chair Brock had and the beast landed on his head. No harm no foul cuz he is back up. There are already marks on Brock. I put the over/under as to when he would accidentally bleed at 5:30. Maybe take the under on that. ... They are brawling around ringside when Brock hit an over head belly to belly suplex. Brock picked him up and slammed HHH through the announce table that didn't break for Punk and Taker. OUCH!
