“Yes, sir, we promised you a great main event…”
-Live from the St. Pete Times Forum in Tampa, FL
-Hosted by Michael Cole & Jerry "The King" Lawler
-Johnny Damon is out to start the show, and the Tampa crowd doesn't exactly care for him. He says he's not sure where he'll be in 2010, but tonight that doesn't matter because he's hosting RAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWW (he actually said it like that, but in a montone voice). He says he's in charge of the WWE franchise tonight, and tonight we have a few secret Santa's. Then this proceeds to get ridiculously surreal as a tiger jumps the rail chased by a blonde wielding a golf club. Um, ok…took me a second to get the "joke." Johnny almost forgets his lines, but is able to get out the most awkward introduction of the divas ever. Yikes, he's bad. Really bad.
Melina, Kelly Kelly, & Gail Kim vs. Jillian, Alicia Fox, & Maryse
Gail and Jillian start things off as all the divas are of course dressed in the obligatory Santa's Little Helper outfits. Gail heads to the top rope delivering a crossbody for two, but Jillian hits her with a forearm and sends her to the corner. Jillian hits an electric chair drop for two, and makes the tag to Maryse who fires Gail into the buckle. Maryse connects with a backbreaker for two, but Gail is back to drive her into the buckle. Tag to Kelly who is in with a clothesline and dropkick followed by a hurracanrana. Kelly hits her legdrop, but the heels make the save. The face divas chase them off, but Maryse picks up Kelly for a slam. Holy Maryse nipple slip! Wow! Gail delivers a dropkick knocking Kelly on top for the cover and the pin at 2:02. Well we're off to a roaring start already.
Winners: Melina, Kelly Kelly, & Jillian Hall (Kelly pins Maryse-Dropkick ½*)
-Well here we go with "Little People's Court." We start with Shawn and Hunter in an empty arena, and Shawn is reading something. The order says he has to go to the ring, so they head there. They get to the ring and there is nothing there so Shawn says they have to go under the ring because that's where the little troll lives. They go under the ring, and they can't see anything until Shawn finds DX glow sticks available at WWEshop.com. They search for a light switch, and now we're suddenly in a hallway. HHH asks who would have thought all of this is under the ring. They find a door with "Little People's Court" on it, and head inside. We of course have a midget judge, and six midget jurors. Oh, and look there's a midget baliff too. HHH of course makes the obligatory "it's a little jury" joke. Shawn and HHH don't want to sit down, but the baliff who's hair looks remarkably similar to Shawn whacks him in the back of the knee. HHH notices the resemblance which leads to a few more jokes. Hornswoggle shows up and grunts, and Shawn translates that he's suing them for "Intentional Emotional Distress" and has video evidence. That leads to a video montage of all of the Swoggle/DX moments from the past two months. That's all for now, but we're promised more later tonight. We've officially seen the most surreal opening 20 minutes in Raw history. That's saying something.
