You’ve gotta love Pay Per View wrestling! Nothing makes you feel more like a fan than watching exclusive coverage along with the rest of the die hards. Fortunately, The Bash was pro-wrestling drama at its finest, and it included some of the best bouts in recent history.

While some of the bouts ended up pretty much the way people expected them to, others were complete surprises. Like the Unified Tag Team match – the players ended up changing at the last minute, and inexplicably, the new Unified Tag Team champs are (drum roll please…) Edge and Chris Jericho.

Edge & Chris Jericho win Triple Threat Tag Team Match
If you are asking yourself how in the world something like this could have happened, you are not alone. And no, your eyes are not deceiving you. Somehow, Edge finagled his way into the PPV match (he hasn’t missed one while healthy in a decade), and history was born. One more time, for you non-believers: Edge and Chris Jericho are your new Unified Tag Team champions!!!

Rey Mysterio vs. Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental Championship
Unfortunately for Chris Jericho, he wasn’t able to continue his winning streak. In fact, in his bout against Rey Mysterio ended his reign as Intercontinental Champ. And the spectators agree, it was pretty much all because of his infatuation with Rey Mysterio’s trademark mask. While Jericho was attempting to unmask his opponent in front of a huge crown and PPV audience, Mysterio was able to move in for a lightning-fast pin. Mask and all.
  

WWE Champion Randy Orton vs. Triple H in Three Stages of Hell Match
It was Triple H versus Randy Orton in the Three Stages of Hell match. Going into the bout, Triple H was the clear favorite. This was because he was the only fighter to have competed in and won fights similar to this prior to The Bash. However, Randy Orton was able to end the night with his championship belt still intact, by way of Triple H’s disqualification. (Hey, when the judges say no bashing with chairs, that means no bashing with chairs, yo.)

Michelle McCool vs. Melina for the Women’s Championship
The Women of the WWE have a new champion. And her win made history, no less. Michelle McCool virtually clobbered her opponent, the ranking champ Melina. The win makes Michelle the first woman in WWE history to hold the Diva’s Championship and the Woman’s Championship simultaneously. Hot and a badass; what more can you ask for?

Jeff Hardy vs. CM Punk (c) for World Heavyweight Championship
In a shocking upset, Jeff Hardy was again denied the title of World Heavyweight Champion by CM Punk. Even after pummeling CM Punk and being declared the victor, Hardy was destined to walk away from the bout empty handed. Upon closer inspection of the footage of the fight, it was determined that Punk had been out of bounds when the win was declared. Result: Hardy was disqualified and Punk retained his title and bragging rights. Not to go quietly into the night, Jeff Hardy pummeled Punk mercilessly as he exited the ring. It took three refs to put a stop to the insanity. Unfortunately for Jeff Hardy, his beating of Punk got him no closer the title he covets.

John Cena vs. The Miz
After weeks of being verbally assaulted and listening to the fabricated tales that have been mercilessly spewed by The Miz, John Cena finally got his night in the ring. And dealt out a brutal beating that The Miz would be smart to remember the next time he considers trash talking. But is he smart enough to keep his mouth shut? My Magic 8 Ball thinks not.
  

As a footnote,
your scramble match winner is Tommy Dreamer, and   
The Great Khali got the Khali kicked out of him Dolph Ziggler.

Result:
Edge & Chris Jericho win Triple Threat Tag Team Match for Unified Tag Team Championship
Rey Mysterio def. Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental Championship
WWE Champion Randy Orton def. Triple H in a Three Stages of Hell Match
Michelle McCool def. Melina for the Women’s Champion
