411’s LIVE Raw Coverage 07.12.04: Diva Search / Chris Benoit Vs. Eugene

Another slut who deals out some terrible innuendo. This one in particular is the 2004 Playmate of the Year, which means she likely won’t win since there isn’t a huge amount of money to be made in her nude shoots at this point.

Eugene is in the back with a giant, stuffed monkey when Chris Benoit confronts him. Benoit says that they’re friends, but Eugene is confused, since Triple H is his best friend. He also really wants to be Heavyweight Champion. Benoit wishes him the best of luck.

WWE World Heavyweight Champion Chris Benoit vs. Eugene – I can imagine this is going to have some badasss counters. Eugene chops Benoit, who retaliates with one of his own. Eugene is ecstatic about being chopped by a man like Benoit, though. Benoit unleashes a few more after a lock-up. Snap suplex for Eugene gets two. Back suplex gets two.

Triple H delivers a straight right hand to Eugene, and they go after Benoit. Eugene fights back, but the numbers are too much. So I guess we’ll cal it a no contest at roughly 8:00.

RKO for Regal as Flair pounds on Eugene while Batista holds him in a full nelson. Triple H starts by slapping Eugene, and then moves his way up to punches. RKO by Orton. Huge Batista Bomb too. They go to a wide angle to allow Eugene to blade, and he’s bleeding pretty good now. Triple H continues to pound away. Pedigree. He delivers a final kneelift for good measure before leaving with the World Title in his hand.

Stellar show. The finishes still suck, but the matches themselves are good.
