WWE MAIN EVENT RESULTS AND LIVE BLOG FOR JAN. 30
The C. J. here for some Wednesday night fun.
Broadcast is live.
Michael Cole informs us that Vince McMahon is recovering from his surgery.
Out comes Cody Rhodes.
Cody: "This show is turning out to be a complete farce"
He learned the word from his good friend Damien Sandow. It's nice that those two are still buddies.
Cody says that the Elimination Chamber Match is comical and ludicrous. Cody Rhodes has been waiting six years to become world champion. It's outrageous that only former champions have been invited to participate.
Instead of six former champions in the match, we have six failures.
And Cody has a chair! We have a good old fashion sit-in! He's not going to leave until Booker T comes down to the ring!
Cole informs us that Booker is no here, because this is Main Event. Even though it tapes on the same night as SmackDown.
I don't think WWE thought that one through.
IT'S A SHAMEFUL THING, LOST YOUR HEAD!
Sheamus out to the ring to get this show on the right track.
Cody is not happy about this. He does his best Sheamus impersonation.
It may be horrible, but I love it.
Sheamus informs Cody that they have a match right now. Cody doesn't want to deal with Sheamus, he wants Booker T.
Sheamus ask him what would Booker T do
Oh lord. Sheamus does his Booker impersonation.
It may be horrible, but I love it.
Cody says he'll go higher than Booker. So Sheamus gives his best Vickie Guerrero impersonation.
It may be horrible, but I love it.
Cody says he has connections backstage, and there are people who owe the Rhodes family some favors.
Sheamus asks if he means he would go to the Chairman of the Board? Cody tells him that is exactly what he means.
This leads Sheamus to do his best Vince McMahon impersonation.
It may be horrible, but...actually I didn't like that one much.
Cody takes a swing and Sheamus, but the Irish fella punches back. Cody rolls out of the ring to steady himself before the match starts.
