Vicki Guerrero is in the ring and brings out Edge(the new WWE champion). Edge talks about how Jeff Hardy has screwed up his career for not coming to Survivor Series. Jeff Hardy tries to attack into the ring, but is stopped by security. Triple H then tries to do the same, but he too is stopped. Vladimir Kozlov appears in the ring and says that he deserves the title (at least I think that’s what he said). Vicki says tonight that there will be three Beat the Clock matches and the person with the lowest time will get a title shot against Edge at Armageddon.

Jeff’s match is first. He will be facing The Brian Kendrick. The match

starts and Kendrick just wastes time off the clock. In the end, Jeff hit a Swanton Bomb and pinned in 12 minutes and 13 seconds.

                        The next match is a six divas tag team match: The Bella twins and Divas champion Michelle McCool vs. Maryse, Victoria, and Natalya. The winner is Maryse, Victoria, and Natalya. One of the Bellas accidentally hit McCool and Maryse pinned her for the win.

                        Now for the second Beat the Clock match between Vladimir Kozlov and Matt Hardy. Matt got the victory because the clock ran out. Kozlov is out of the challenge.

                        Jesse and Festus will take on John Morrison and The Miz is a tag team match. The winners are Jesse and Festus by DQ. After the match, Morrison and Miz mess around with Festus by ringing the bell over-and-over. In the end, Jesse gets hit with the bell and Morrison and Miz get clothes lined by Festus.

                        Now it’s the last Beat the Clock match between Triple H and the United States champion Shelton Benjamin. Triple H hit a pedigree with about 15 seconds, but Shelton Benjamin knocked down the ref. Finally, the ref recovers and counts 1-2-3 right when the clock hits zero. So did Triple H get the victory? Did Hardy win? Or was it a tie? Well just watch Smackdown next week to find out.
