A source within WWE notes that Chavo Guerrero quitting is bigger news than most think, noting that Batista, Chris Jericho, MVP, Matt Hardy and now Chavo all asked to be released or let their contracts expire, and CM Punk is doing the same.
There is said to be a handful of other stars who have been talking about doing the same thing. Guerrero’s departure caught a lot of the WWE talents off guard and several were praising him for having the guts to walk away.

HOTEL INCIDENT DURING THE WRESTLEMANIA WEEK
There were reportedly hotel bar incidents with Matt Hardy and the WWE Tough Enough crew in Atlanta this past weekend for WrestleMania. We have no details yet but obviously they can’t do anything to Hardy but there may be some repercussions for the Tough Enough cast. One source says if a main roster WWE star had done some of the things they did, they might have been released if they were low enough on the roster.

CURRENT STATUS OF MATT HARDY IN WWE
Regarding Matt Hardy’s present status with World Wrestling Entertainment, both sides remain at a strong stalemate.
Company officials want Hardy to address his issues, but he doesn’t want to. Furthermore, they are unwilling to release him at this time because they don’t want him joining rival promotion TNA Wrestling.
One company source indicated that the touring schedule has been hectic as of late and when things settle down following Sunday’s Hell in a Cell pay-per-view, Hardy’s situation will likely be addressed.

MATT HARDY SENT BACK TO HOME
Though Matt Hardy claimed in a video blog entry late last night that he was still in the U.K. in spite of online reports of him being sent home following an apparent backstage incident the day before, he did not work the final event of the European tour, which took place in Skegness, England. He did not offer a response to that portion of the report. Additionally, in his video he blamed “a stooging punk” for the story hitting the net.
In regard to his health, Hardy said he has never felt better. He claimed to have dropped over twenty pounds since changing his diet to eliminate red meat. Apparently, he managed to drop seven additional pounds during the international tour as he wrote on Twitter Thursday night that he was planning a YouTube entry concerning his recent health breakthroughs as he had dropped thirteen pounds at the time.
“Definitely gonna do a YT entry soon about my recent health breakthroughs concerning my digestive process,” Hardy wrote. “In 3 weeks, I’ve dropped 13 lbs.”

When he looks at his brother, all he sees is weakness. Kane says that he saw his weakness when he attacked Taker and left him comatose. He saw it when he drove Taker’s head into the mat. He saw it on Monday when Taker showed that he is not the phenom any more. We go to the footage from Monday night when Taker was attacked by Nexus.
Kane says that while the rest of the world waited in anticipation for the Undertaker to rise up like he always does, Kane says that he knew that Taker would lay there like the mangled wretch that he has become. He says that Taker’s powers have gone and they belong to him. When their saga is over, the Undertaker will be no more. The man once known as the Phenom will become a memory known as Kane’s Brother. At Night of Champions, the Undertaker will feel his rage and there is nothing that Taker can do about this. There is nothing that Taker can do to stop his demise. Kane says that nothing can stop him.
The lights go out and Taker’s music plays. Taker comes out and he stands across the ring from his brother. The lights go out and Kane is no longer in the ring when the lights go back on.

Taker looks around and Kane is heard laughing on the TitanTron. Kane says that Taker might not have taught him everything about evil, but Kane says that he does not have anything left to learn. He says that they are called the Brother’s of Destruction, but after Night of Champions Taker will be known as the “Brother that I have destroyed”.
Kane’s pyro goes off in the ring as we go to credits.

We go to commercial, but Kane will be making a major announcement when we come back.
We are back and Kane’s pyro goes off and he is on the TitanTron. He says that the final chapter for the world always ends the same. For some it is Armageddon. For some it is the apocalypse. For many, it is just the end of the world. For his brother, the Undertaker, the end of his world will happen at Night of Champions. Kane says that he will defend his title against his brother. He says that Night of Champions will be the crowning moment because he will put the Undertaker to rest by the Devil’s favorite demon.

Kane says that he wishes he could be there to see his brother’s expression when he realizes that there is nothing he can do to stop Kane. Kane says that he wants to know how Taker feels to be walking in his shadow. Kane was always the second one chosen and the afterthought. Kane says that things have changed. When he looks at his brother, all he sees is weakness. Kane says that he saw his weakness when he attacked Taker and left him comatose. He saw it when he drove Taker’s head into the mat. He saw it on Monday when Taker showed that he is not the phenom any more. We go to the footage from Monday night when Taker was attacked by Nexus.
Kane says that while the rest of the world waited in anticipation for the Undertaker to rise up like he always does, Kane says that he knew that Taker would lay there like the mangled wretch that he has become. He says that Taker’s powers have gone and they belong to him. When their saga is over, the Undertaker will be no more. The man once known as the Phenom will become a memory known as Kane’s Brother. At Night of Champions, the Undertaker will feel his rage and there is nothing that Taker can do about this. There is nothing that Taker can do to stop his demise. Kane says that nothing can stop him.
The lights go out and Taker’s music plays. Taker comes out and he stands across the ring from his brother. The lights go out and Kane is no longer in the ring when the lights go back on.
Taker looks for his brother and sees that the casket has closed. Taker goes towards the casket and when he opens the casket, Kane is not in there. Taker looks around and Kane is heard laughing on the TitanTron. Kane says that Taker might not have taught him everything about evil, but Kane says that he does not have anything left to learn. He says that they are called the Brother’s of Destruction, but after Night of Champions Taker will be known as the “Brother that I have destroyed”.
Kane’s pyro goes off in the ring as we go to credits.

SMACKDOWN REPORT 7/30
We begin this week’s show with a look back at Kane’s comments about his World Title win and how he did it for his brother. Kane tells us that he will not rest until he finds his culprit. We see the footage from the match between Jack Swagger and Rey Mysterio to see who will face Kane at SummerSlam. After the match ended, Kane came to the ring and he attacked Swagger and Rey.
We are live on tape from Corpus Christi, Texas and your announcers are Todd ‘Deep in the Heart of Texas’ Grisham and Matt ‘JBL’ Striker.
Kane is in the ring and he says that for sixty days and sixty nights, he has sat at his brother’s side waiting for him to show a sign and put him in the direction of the culprit who put him in a vegetative state. Yesterday, his brother moved and he opened his eyes. For the first time in two months, he spoke. Kane says that his voice was weak and frail. He could only utter two words, but those words will be forever engrained in his psyche. Those words were the name of his assailant. A tidal wave of anger and pain coursed through his body. It was something he could not believe. The guilty party had been looking him in the eyes and he could not see it. Kane says that the man who attacked his brother was Rey Mysterio.
Kane says that he sat staring at his brother before he drifted back into unconsciousness. The name Rey Mysterio hung in the air like a demon he could not fathom. He wonders why would Rey have done this. Kane says that he knows that Rey couldn’t have done it together. Kane says that the more he realized it, it was true. Rey had the most to gain. Kane talks about the night that Rey lost to the Undertaker to get into the Fatal Four Way Match. He says that Rey made a conscious decision and took the coward’s way out. The next week, like a virus invading its host, he opportunistically won a battle royal to get back into the Fatal Four Way Match. Then Rey won the title when he should have hung his head in shame for what he had done. Rey won only because his brother was not there. Kane says that he stopped Rey by cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase and he brought the title to the dark side. He will beat Rey at SummerSlam but defeating him will not be enough.
This time he will make Rey pay for his sins. He will make Rey experience what Undertaker has endured. Kane says that he will open a casket and stuff Rey inside. He will damn Rey to eternal hell where the fires will consume him over and over. He will condemn Rey to eternal pain. Kane says that Rey will be praying to him for mercy. Kane says that he will shut the lid and Rey Mysterio as we know him will cease to exist. As Rey gasps for air and the light dims, his fate will be sealed and so too will his soul. As the life oozes out of Rey’s pores, the last thought that will go through your mind will be to repent over what you did to his brother. Then the only thing left will be the darkness. Kane closes the casket and we go to commercial.
We are back and Matt and Todd talk about Kane’s revelation that it was Rey who attacked the Undertaker. Matt wonders what Rey is thinking after what Kane said earlier.

Kane is in the ring and he says that for sixty days and sixty nights, he has sat at his brother’s side waiting for him to show a sign and put him in the direction of the culprit who put him in a vegetative state. Yesterday, his brother moved and he opened his eyes. For the first time in two months, he spoke. Kane says that his voice was weak and frail. He could only utter two words, but those words will be forever engrained in his psyche. Those words were the name of his assailant. A tidal wave of anger and pain coursed through his body. It was something he could not believe. The guilty party had been looking him in the eyes and he could not see it. Kane says that the man who attacked his brother was Rey Mysterio.
Kane says that he sat staring at his brother before he drifted back into unconsciousness. The name Rey Mysterio hung in the air like a demon he could not fathom. He wonders why would Rey have done this. Kane says that he knows that Rey couldn’t have done it together. Kane says that the more he realized it, it was true. Rey had the most to gain. Kane talks about the night that Rey lost to the Undertaker to get into the Fatal Four Way Match. He says that Rey made a conscious decision and took the coward’s way out. The next week, like a virus invading its host, he opportunistically won a battle royal to get back into the Fatal Four Way Match. Then Rey won the title when he should have hung his head in shame for what he had done. Rey won only because his brother was not there. Kane says that he stopped Rey by cashing in the Money in the Bank briefcase and he brought the title to the dark side. He will beat Rey at SummerSlam but defeating him will not be enough.
This time he will make Rey pay for his sins. He will make Rey experience what Undertaker has endured. Kane says that he will open a casket and stuff Rey inside. He will damn Rey to eternal hell where the fires will consume him over and over. He will condemn Rey to eternal pain. Kane says that Rey will be praying to him for mercy. Kane says that he will shut the lid and Rey Mysterio as we know him will cease to exist. As Rey gasps for air and the light dims, his fate will be sealed and so too will his soul. As the life oozes out of Rey’s pores, the last thought that will go through your mind will be to repent over what you did to his brother. Then the only thing left will be the darkness. Kane closes the casket and we go to commercial.
We are back and Matt and Todd talk about Kane’s revelation that it was Rey who attacked the Undertaker. Matt wonders what Rey is thinking after what Kane said earlier.

(2) Christian & MVP & IC champion Kofi Kingston beat Dolph Ziggler & Vance Archer & Curt Hawkins in a six-man tag match. Decent match with a few believable nearfalls. In the end, MVP and Kofi cleared out Hawkins and Archer, then Christian hit the Killswitch on Ziggler for the win to a huge pop from the live audience. Other notes: Kofi got a nice New England reaction. Also, the side opposite the hard camera is still about three-fourths full. Still seeing many scattered empty seats.
* A backstage video aired on Kane talking to an empty casket. He yelled that he’s going to decapitate the head of the SES tonight in his No DQ match against C.M. Punk. He then slammed the casket closed.
* Matt Hardy was shown making his way to the ring for his match against Drew McIntyre.
(3) Matt Hardy beat Drew McIntyre. Hardy was thrown to the outside at the beginning of the match. McIntyre stood in the ring as the crowd chanted, “You can’t wrestle” and “U-S-A.” Drew then dominated as “Hardy” chants began. At least this wasn’t a throwaway match for all this build-up they’ve done with this feud. Drew eventually had Hardy on the steel steps and was about to stomp on his arm, but Hardy tripped him and Drew landed on the steps. Back in the ring, Hardy hit the Twist of Fate for the win as the crowd cjeered.
* Teddy Long then came on the video screen and said, “Drew, sorry you didn’t win the match, playa. Looks like somebody’s Visa has expired. Somebody is in the country illegally. Send Mr. McIntyre back to Scotland.” Drew is pissed. “Na na na na hey hey hey goodbye” chants begin as Drew argues with Striker and refs. Drew stood at the top of the ramp as the crowd waved and chanted, “U-S-A.”
* Cody Rhodes came out with Husky Harris to cut a promo on his good looks. He asked the crowd which Superstar is the best-looking and they showed a graphic with Rhodes winning. Who voted? Confusing. He said Harris is an average man who can’t help how he looks. Good quote from Rhodes to an audience member: “USA can literally hear you getting fatter.” Rhodes then picked on Tony Chimel before doing the “hammock pose” on the top turnbuckle ala Chris Jericho. Rhodes kept repeating how good looking he is, then he called himself “Dashing Cody Rhodes” over and over and over again.
* Vickie Guerrero was then shown on the big screen with Dolph Ziggler. Ziggler is unhappy with his relationship with her. He said he gives and gives, so now he wants a title match. “Make it happen,” he said as he left. Vickie stared at a picture of Dolph and her.
* Rosa Mendes was then shown jump-roping in the ring as Kelly Kelly was introduced. I decided to take a break at this point. … I returned as the Kane vs. C.M. Punk No DQ match was starting.
(5) Kane vs. C.M. Punk went to a No Contest in a No DQ match. Kane threw Punk into the barricades on the floor to start. Straight Edge Society then ran out trying to attack Kane with onjects, but Kane gained control and eventually chokeslammed Gallows through the announce table. He threw Punk into the front row and Punk took off into the crowd.
* Kane followed closely behind as they brawled through the arena. Kane caught up to him and chokeslammed him through another table as the crowd looked on and cheered. Punk then opened the front door of the building and ran across the street to outside the Verizon Arena while in his wrestling gear. Kane chased him down and Smackdown went off the air.
