411’s LIVE Raw Coverage 07.12.04: Maven Vs. Tomko / Regal Confronts Benoit

Last night on Heat, Maven returned from the dead to save his Tough Enough slut, Nidia.

Tyson Tomko (w/Trish Stratus) vs. Maven (w/Nidia) – He still has the awesome entrance music, for those keeping track. I smell a clusterfuck. Tomko immediately goes to work, powerslamming Maven down. After using his knee on Maven’s face, he gets tripped up by Nidia. He goes to the outside to chase her, allowing Maven to necksnap him on the top rope when he tries to come back in. Back in the ring, Maven is only able to get two. Maven gets dropped on the top ring rope. Tomko runs right into the corner, and gets dropped with a dropkick for two. Trish tries to interfere with the cast, which prompts Nidia to make the save. This distracts maven, and when he turns around, there’s a big boot waiting for him. That’s it at 2:35. They’re throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks at this point. Tomko’s bouncing right off.

William Regal confronts Benoit, who despite liking Eugene, will do anything to hold oto his title.
