Jerry "The King" Lawler vs Gregory Helms
Gregory Helms went on WWE.com Unlimited and said that there’s a conspiracy in WWE to hold him down. And he accused Jerry “The King” Lawler of being the biggest culprit. He said that Lawler has always made a joke of his career, especially when referencing his former Hurricane character. Helms could not take it any longer and confronted The King face to face on an edition of RAW. Lawler didn’t back down and challenged the angry Superstar to a match at New Year’s Revolution.
Helms dominated this match early on and seemed to be backing up his tough words. But Lawler is a wily veteran, and you can never count out someone with that much experience. Helms was so thingyy, though, that he even joined in for some color commentary during his own match. His thingyiness caught up to him, though, and he missed a running charge. Lawler took advantage of the miscue and hit the fistdrop for the win.
Ashley vs Victoria vs Candice vs Torrie Wilson vs Maria (Bra & Panties Gauntlet Match)
Even though five lovely Divas were competing for supremacy in the first-ever Bra & Panties Gauntlet Match, the real winners in this one were the fans.
Maria and Candice started this one off, and Candice jumped out to an early advantage taking off Maria’s top. Maria bounced right back, though, and after a drop toe hold, she was able to rip off Candice’s top revealing a bra that matched her wristbands. Candice then went upside down and had Maria in the Candylicious, but the bubbly RAW interviewer was able to pull off the GoDaddy girl’s pants for the first elimination.
There was no time for Maria to rest as Torrie Wilson was the next competitor. Maria was able to pull off Torrie’s top to even things up. The two Divas then rolled around and were even on top of the ref at one point. Torrie confronted the referee after that incident, allowing Maria to rip her pants off for another elimination.
Victoria was next, and Maria’s streak of good luck was about to come to an end. Victoria physically dominated Maria and hit a backwards splash and ripped off Maria’s pants. Then Fabulous Moolah and Mae Young made a surprise appearance. Victoria didn’t know what to make of their entrance, and before long Mae Young started stripping like only Mae Young can. Moolah and Mae were even able to rip off Victoria’s shirt before it was all said and done.
Once Moolah and Mae left, Ashley came to the ring. It didn’t her long to come away with a win as she rolled through Victoria’s Widow’s Peak attempt and ripped off her pants. Ashley then gave the fans an extra treat and she took off her shirt and skirt in a victory celebration.
Shelton Benjamin vs Viscera
Shelton Benjamin’s recent losing streak on RAW is well-documented. He seems to come so close in every match, but a big win has been eluding him for quite some time now. After a recent loss on RAW, Shelton received a phone call from his mama informing him that she would be showing up to help shape him up. She told Shelton that Benjamins don’t take ass whoopin’s, they dish them out.
Shelton’s vocal mama also accompanied him to New Year’s Revolution. She was on a mission to find him some good, wholesome food in catering, but instead ran into the World’s Biggest Love Machine Viscera. Viscera said he wanted to show Shelton’s mama that he was her papa, but this only infuriated Shelton’s mama.
Later on in the show, Benjamin and his mama came to the ring and called out Big Vis. Visera answered the challenge and looked to have Shelton off his game in the early goings. But Shelton was able to come back and worked on the big man’s leg. Viscera came back with a huge Samoan Drop, though, and followed it up with a mammoth elbow. Shelton was able to kick out at two to stay alive. After the embarrassing Visagara, Viscera missed a big splash. With Viscera near the ropes, Shelton’s mama hit him the head with her pocketbook twice. Shelton hit a dazed Viscera with a dragon whip for the big win. Shelton finally got off the snide. It was later learned, however, that Shelton’s mama’s pocketbook was loaded with a brick, which helped lead to the win.
Women's Champion Trish Stratus vs Mickie James
Mickie James is Trish Stratus’ biggest fan. But at New Year’s Revolution, RAW’s newest Diva had her first Women’s Championship shot against her idol. In the weeks leading up to the event, Mickie had kissed Trish and cornered her in the shower, causing the Women’s Champ to be very flustered. Mickie was getting inside of Trish’s head but was it intentional?
This one started out with Mickie showcasing her happy-go-lucky attitude, but before long this turned into one of the most brutal women’s matches in recent memory. These two Divas were giving it all they had, pelting each other with hard rights and lefts. The action soon spilled to the outside and Mickie picked up the Women’s Championship belt and seemed to be mesmerized by it.
The action returned to the ring, but Mickie couldn’t seem to focus completely on the task at hand. After an offensive flurry from Trish, Mickie was able to come back with Stratus’ own finishing maneuver, the Stratusfaction. It looked as though a new Champion would be crowned, but Mickie waited to make the cover, thinking it was in the bag. Mickie then went for the Mick Kick, but Trish ducked and came back with her Chick Kick for the 1-2-3 to retain the Women’s Championship.
Intercontinental Champion Ric Flair vs Edge
For weeks Edge had been verbally attacking Ric Flair about his personal problems. From his pending divorce to his alleged road rage incident, Edge pulled no punches in his verbal diatribes berating the Nature Boy. Flair, who is never at a loss for words, couldn’t even defend himself, because his lawyers had advised him not to talk about the topics. But at New Year’s Revolution Flair had his chance to let his actions speak louder than words.
Edge dominated the match early on, targeting Flair’s well-documented vulnerable back. But Flair made a come back and started to target Edge’s leg. Flair looked about ready to put Edge into the Figure Four Leglock, but Lita hopped up onto the apron. Flair then turned his attention to the lovely Lita. Edge tried to sneak up behind him, but Flair saw him coming and backdropped him out to the floor.
With that, Flair tossed Lita into the ring and set her up for the Figure Four instead. He had it locked in, but Edge came back with his Money in the Bank briefcase and blasted the Nature Boy in the head, busting him wide open. Edge wasn’t satisfied with just one blow, though, as he delivered two more, leaving the Intercontinental Champion laying in the middle of the ring.
Edge didn’t win the Intercontinental Championship, but it would still end up being a historic night for the Rated R Superstar as he made another appearance later in the evening.
Triple H vs Big Show
After watching Triple H brutalize the legendary Ric Flair, Big Show confronted the Cerebral Assassin, saying that he was sick of The Game bullying people. It was clear then that it was only a matter of time before they met in the ring.
Then, at the contract signing, Triple H broke Big Show’s hand with a sledgehammer. But it turned out the Cerebral Assassin’s plan could have backfired. Big Show came back the following week with a giant-sized cast. Big Show couldn’t use his right hand for the chokeslam, but at the same time, he was now wielding a powerful weapon every time he swung his right hand.
Big Show tried to use his cast as a weapon early and often, but Triple H was able to avoid it. Big Show thought he had Triple H cornered at one of the ring posts, but Triple H moved, causing Big Show to wallop the post with his broken hand, causing the cast to crack in the process. Triple H saw that the cast was cracked and pounced on the weakness, ultimately tearing it off and exposing Big Show’s broken hand.
Big Show was able to survive the pain and even went for the chokeslam, but his broken hand was not strong enough. Big Show then accidentally knocked the ref out, prompting Triple H to grab his trusty sledgehammer. Before The Game could use his weapon of choice, however, Big Show superhumanly broke it in half with his injured hand. The action spilled to the outside and Triple H went back to the injured hand. He took a steel chair and slammed it against Big Show’s hand, which was on top of the steel steps. Big Show screamed in pain, but was able to muster up enough strength to hit the Cerebral Assassin with a giant spear.
Big Show, showing a tremendous amount of heart, called for the chokeslam once again. But with the ref still down, Triple H picked up the broken sledgehammer and slammed it into Big Show’s head. As the ref started to come to, Triple H hit the Pedigree for the win.
WWE Champion vs Kurt Angle vs Shawn Michaels vs Kane vs Chris Masters vs Carlito (Elimination Chamber Match)
WWE Champion John Cena was used to having the odds stacked against him, but one thing has always remained – The Champ was still here. Cena never backed down from anything or anyone, but he also never had to defend the WWE Championship inside the Elimination Chamber. In order to walk away from New Year’s Revolution with the gold, he would have to defeat five men inside the unforgiving Elimination Chamber. To make matters worse, Cena was the second man in the match, meaning he would have to go the distance to win.
Shawn Michaels was at the same disadvantage. After losing a match to Kane the week before, Mr. McMahon told HBK that he would have to be the first man inside the Elimination Chamber. Kane, on the other hand, had earned the right to be the last man inside the Elimination Chamber.
Earlier in the evening, Carlito found Chris Masters and convinced The Masterpiece to form an alliance and take everyone else out in the Chamber and then fight to see who was the best man.
HBK and Cena didn’t waste any time going at it. They both tried to use the Elimination Chamber’s steel chains as weapons, but they were both able to avoid it. Carlito came in next and was on fire. But it was nothing compared to when Kurt Angle entered next. The merciless wrestling machine delivered German suplexes to anything that moved. Then Angle immediately sought out Shawn Michaels and suplexed him over the ropes and onto the steel. He then slingshotted HBK into the steel chains, busting him wide open, and threw him face-first into one of the Chamber’s glass doors. Angle went back into the ring and hooked Carlito in the ankle lock, but Masters was the next to enter and made the save.
Angle then moved on to John Cena and got him in the ankle lock as well. But the Showstopper popped up from out of nowhere and leveled Angle with Sweet Chin Music for the 1-2-3. Angle was shockingly the first one eliminated from the Elimination Chamber.
Kane finally made his entrance and started handing out chokeslams like they were pieces of candy on Halloween. Carlito and Masters showed that their alliance was strong, though, as they teamed up on the Big Red Monster. With Kane down, Masters press-slammed Carlito onto the fallen monster and they both covered him for the pin and the second elimination.
The final four was Masters, Carlito, HBK and Cena. After Masters had DDT’d Cena on the steel floor of the Chamber, the Champ was also busted wide open. HBK also went after Cena and hit the flying elbow from the top rope and followed it up with Sweet Chin Music. Before he could make the cover, though, Carlito swooped in and hit his inverted swinging neckbreaker for the surprise pin.
Carlito and Masters’ alliance had proven to be very fruitful, but all good things must come to an end. Carlito told Masters to get Cena in the Master Lock and the Masterpiece obliged. But then Carlito turned on his partner and delivered a low blow to Masters and rolled him up for the pin. Cena came right back with a roll up for his own on Carlito and pinned him for the win. The Champ had once again defied the odds. But unfortunately for him, his night was not over yet.
Edge vs John Cena to become new WWE Champion
They say timing is everything, and that saying was never more appropriate than at New Year’s Revolution. Ever since WrestleMania 21, Edge has been biding his time. He’s been sitting back and waiting for the perfect moment. Finally, just more than nine months since he became Mr. Money in the Bank, and with a bloodied John Cena slouched over in the corner, Edge cashed in his open contract for a shot at the WWE Championship.
After Cena rolled up Carlito to win the grueling Elimination Chamber Match, Mr. McMahon came out and said that the evening was not over. After congratulating Cena, he informed the raucous Albany crowd that Edge was cashing in his Money in the Bank shot.
Almost as soon as Cena was finally able to get to his feet, Edge steamrolled The Champ with a vicious spear and went for the cover. As the ref’s hand was coming down for the three count, Cena just got a shoulder up and the match continued. But not for long.
Edge anxiously waited for Cena to get back to his feet, and when he did, Mr. Money in the Bank leveled him with another vile spear, and this time the pin was academic. Edge became WWE Champion for the first time in his career. Edge and Lita were very emotional as they celebrated in the ring as well as on top of the Spanish Announce Table. Edge proved that patience is indeed a virtue, as he waited until Cena was the most vulnerable. And like a shark smelling blood in the water, Edge pounced and captured the WWE Championship.
