Match 1: Kane vs. Elijah Burke From Biloxi, Ms.

Throughout the match, Joey Styles & Tazz put over the 24 man battle royal at Wrestlemania, with Kane as one of the participants, but not once mentioning that Burke might also be in the field. This match might be a good reason why. Protracted squash. Burke tried trading punches with Kane, but while Big Red knocked the ex-boxer down twice with uppercuts, Burke's uppercut only moved Kane about 2 feet backward. Not good. Burke dodged a corner charge by Kane and set up for the Elijah Express. However, Kane was waiting and hit a phat chokeslam. As Joey aptly put it, "The Express just got derailed!". Winner: Kane.

Backstage, Armando Estrada shakes hands with the World's Strongest Man, Mark Henry. As Mark leaves, ECW Champion Chavo Guerrero enters. Armando explains that Henry has been added to the battle royal, joining Kane, Big Daddy V, Great Khali, Chuck Palumbo, & Jamie Noble. Colin Delaney shows up, answering a summons from the GM. Chavo never lets him finish a sentence as he cuts a promo on the rookie. What results is Chavo will face Delaney in a non-title match later. After Delaney had "embarassed" ECW, in Chavo's words, by getting destroyed by JBL last night, what are Delaney's chances against the champion? Even with a formal contract being dangled before him as a prize for winning. If this sounds sort of familiar, consider the case of Zach Gowen on Smackdown about 5 years ago.

They're replaying the Floyd Mayweather, Jr. vidpack from last night. We'll see Floyd later on BET on their new MMA show.

Match 2: Kofi Kingston vs. James Curtis Protracted squash #2. If I'm not mistaken, Curtis is the first one to go a 2nd time around with Kingston. Curtis got some token offense in, but couldn't keep Kofi confined to the canvas. Kofi hit the double legdrop, and set up for the Jamaican Buzzsaw. Curtis thought he had it covered and set up Kingston for a backdrop, but Kingston rolled over the top and hit the buzzsaw anyway. Hoot, mon! Winner: Kofi Kingston.

Backstage, CM Punk is trying to wake up Festus the old fashioned way, by snapping his fingers and waving his hand in front of the glazed gladiator. However, Festus reminds Punk of an uncle who'd be in that same state at Thanksgiving after 3 bottles of wine. Jesse, of course, touts the virtues of his Pavlovian pal. 6-man action coming up next.

Match 3: John Morrison, Mike Mizanin, & Shelton Benjamin vs. CM Punk, Jesse, & Festus Half the guys in this match are in Money in the Bank IV (Punk, Benjamin, Morrison). The other half might wind up in the battle royal, which might be a pretty good consolation prize when you think about it. Bear in mind, too, that on Friday, Mizizzle & Morrison have to defend their tag titles vs. Jesse & Festus.

Having said all that, this is the match of the night. Early on, with Punk and the tag champs on the floor, Festus, on the apron, engaged Benjamin in an impromptu test of strength and launched the Minnesota graduate over the top, crashing into the others. This after Punk had hit a springboard crossbody off the middle rope onto the champs. After the commercial, the heat's on Punk after a hair takedown by Benjamin blocks an attempted bulldog on Miz. However, after a enziguri to Morrison, Punk tags in Festus, who promptly clears out the opposition. He hits a pump kick on Miz, but Benjamin & Morrison make the save. Jesse hits a missile dropkick on Benjamin. Punk tosses Morrison out, leaving Miz all alone. He ducks a corner charge, but as with Elijah Burke earlier, Miz's finisher, the Reality Check, is blocked, and Festus hits the F-5 to end it. Winners: CM Punk, Jesse, & Festus.

Raw Rebound: Triple H creates a Guinness Book worthy main event.

Joey & Tazz run down the Wrestlemania 24 card.

The latest inductee into the WWE Hall of Fame is wrestler-promoter Eddie Graham. Comments from Dusty Rhodes, Ric Flair, Vince McMahon, & Pat Patterson. Graham and "brother" Jerry wrestled for Vincent J. McMahon's Capital Sports promotion way back in the day, but Eddie is better known for his work in Florida, both as a promoter and for his volunteer work with children. Rhodes will induct Graham into the Hall.

At home with the Big Show. His "entourage" is just his wife and dogs. When you're as big as Show is, do you really need a dozen people following you around like Floyd Mayweather?

Match 4: Chavo Guerrero vs. Colin Delaney (non-title) It's amazing. The last two weeks, Delaney & Tommy Dreamer challenged for the tag titles, and now Delaney needs to beat Chavo to "earn a contract". As before, when he first debuted, Delaney is interviewed by Tazz instead of getting a standard entrance. What results is protracted squash #3. Delaney does get some offense in, including a sweet looking dropkick that sends Chavo to the floor. That upsets the champion, who then begins the beatdown. He goes for the 3 Amigos, but stops after two after seeing that Colin has become "dead weight". He misses the frogsplash, however, and Delaney gets a near fall out of that. That is one insult Chavo will not accept, and finishes the rookie with the GoryBomb. Winner: Chavo Guerrero.
