Triple Threat Match - Monday’s RAW saw the largest crowd ever for a
WWE live event in Oklahoma City, with 11,560 fans in attendance to witness Jim
Ross’ farewell to Raw.
The night before, Kane had lost his ECW Championship to Mark Henry, so he
probably wasn’t the best person to show aggression toward on Monday Night RAW.
Jamie Noble, however, was hoping to impress Katie Lea Burchill backstage by
issuing a warning to the biggest, baddest guy around, who happened to be the Big
Red Machine. Kane, taking exception to Noble’s teasing, grabbed him by the
throat and lifted him up for a chokeslam. Noble's foot found a mark in Kane's
stomach and before you knew it, Noble took off like a shot. Kane took a moment,
then made his way out to the ring.
At the ringside announce table, Cole said over at Smackdown, Noble had a bad
habit of putting his foot in his mouth. Noble scampered down the ramp and tried
to hide under the announce table but King and Cole were having none of it. Jamie
hid at ringside and began to pray. Kane's pryo blasted and he strolled down to
the ring. Noble actually dove at Kane and tackled him to the floor then stomped
on him until KANE sat up and batted Noble away. Back in the ring, Jamie tried to
put up a fight, only to have Kane knock him knock him to the outside where Kane
grabbed him up into a chokeslam on the announce table. As Noble rolled off the
table, Kane laughed maniacally.

WWE NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS PPV
ECW CHAMPION KANE vs BIG SHOW vs MARK HENRY
Sunday, June 29, 2008 - DALLAS, TX

As Kane writhes, Mark Henry, the new ECW champion, roars his victory.
Triple Threat Match - Similar to what the Land of the Extreme endured
at the 2007 Draft, this year’s Draft took the ECW Championship away from its
home brand, as Kane was drafted to Raw. At Sunday's Night of Champions, however,
the gold returned in the form of new ECW Champion Mark Henry when he pinned the
Big Red Machine in their Triple Threat Match.
Kane suffered a knee injury early on in the contest, leaving him outside of the
ring for much of the match. After regaining his strength, the Big Red Machine
put everything he had left into throwing Big Show off the top turnbuckle,
leaving both giants involved in the maneuver gasping on the canvas. Henry
quickly capitalized with a splash and a three-count to become ECW Champion.
The night saw other championships change hands as well as brand homes . . .
RAW's Kofi Kingston defeated Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental Title, Cody
Rhodes changed partners mid-match and now holds the World Tag Team Title with
Ted Dibiase, and Mickie James still holds the Women's Championship Title on RAW.
ECW's tag duo held on to the WWE Tag Team Title, and Matt Hardy brought his
United States Championship with him to ECW. SmackDown hung on to the World
Heavyweight Title and now hosts the WWE Title as well.

WWE SMACKDOWN!
KANE & BIG SHOW vs MVP & MARK HENRY
Friday, June 27, 2008 - HOUSTON, TX

Is this the last we'll see of the ECW Title Belt wearing Kane?
The WWE Universe got a Night of Champions preview when ECW Champion Kane &
Big Show faced Mark Henry & Montel Vontavious Porter in tag team action. The
three giants involved are all set to fight for the ECW Title in a Triple Threat
Match at the pay-per-view, but it’s not hard to tell they are chomping at the
bit.
MVP worked on Kane's legs with a series of well aimed kicks then sent the Giant
stumbling with a resounding kick to the head. Kane managed to toss off a
near pin and get to his feet before giving a red hot tag in to The Big Show, who
demonstrated his strength by lifting MVP up over his head. MVP
quickly tagged in Mark Henry who locked up with Big Show and then Kane.
Just when it looked like Henry was in control of the Big Red Machine and the tag
match, MVP tagged himself back in, but when Kane battled back, MVP tried to skip
out, shouting at his tag partner before heading up the ramp to get in there and
get the job done. Henry jumped down off the apron, retrieved MVP and
tossed him back into the ring where Kane got the job done with a chokeslam and
the winning pin.
Kane watches as Big Show steps into the ring, signaling that he has his eye on
the Big Red Machine and Mark Henry motions wearing the coveted ECW Championship
belt around his waist. Kane will certainly have his hands full at Night of
Champions as he battles to keep his Title, but will the other mastodons work
together to eliminate the displaced Champion then clash claim the ECW Title as
their own? Will the Title end up back around an ECW waist? Will SmackDown!
own three Championship Titles, or will it stay firmly in place on RAW's Kane?
Be sure to find out this Sunday at the
Night of Champions on
Pay-per-view.

WWE NIGHT OF CHAMPIONS
Tangled Titles
Wednesday, June 25, 2008

In the wake of the WWE Draft, four championships have been displaced. With
all of them being defended Sunday night, where will these titles end up after
Night of Champions?
What will be the state of the ECW Championship held by Kane, who was
drafted over to RAW on Monday? Although ECW gained the services of United States
Champion Matt Hardy, the Land of the Extreme is now left with no World Champion
of their own, and only a one-in-three chance to win it back at Night of
Champions.
On Sunday, the Big Red Machine will defend the title in a Triple Threat Match
against Big Show and Mark Henry. While the World's Largest Athlete remains on
SmackDown!, the World's Strongest Man was pulled to ECW in Wednesday's
Supplemental Draft, and is that brand's chance to bring the title back to the
Land of the Extreme. But, if Kane retains his Title, RAW will be the new home of
the ECW Championship Title; or, if Triple H, Edge and Big Show have an extremely
good Night of Champions, SmackDown! General Manager Vickie Guerrero could
conceivably find her brand the home of all three World Championships, with both
RAW and ECW left out in the cold.

WWE EXTREME CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING
KANE TAKES SECOND SLAM
Tuesday, June 24, 2008 - HOUSTON, TX

Five days prior to Night of Champions and one day after being pulled away
from the Land of the Extreme in the stunning 2008 WWE Draft, ECW Champion Kane
squared off a in a non-title match against The World's Strongest Man, Mark
Henry.
To the surprise of all, Henry pinned the ECW Champion in the middle of the ring
while The Big Show watched from the announce table at ringside. The monumental
win brings credibility to Henry's recent claims that he belongs in championship
competition with the likes of the Big Red Machine and the World’s Largest
Athlete, Big Show.
Afterwards, ECW General Manager
Theodore Long announced the ECW Championship will now be contested in a Triple Threat Match
between Kane, Big Show and Mark Henry at
Night of Champions.
