Bryan kicks Dibiase sqaure in the chest about eight times before going for another. Dibiase grabs his leg but finds himself caught in a small package for two.

Bryan connects with a beautiful high angle back superplex, and he immediately goes back to holding his shoulder before going for a pin. Bryan only gets a two but tries to transition directly into the LaBell lock, only for Dibiase to slingshot him into the corner. Dibiase tries for a quick pin, but Bryan fights out, locks in the LaBell lock, and forces Dibiase to tap.

Raw’s Money in the Bank Ladder Match – Ted DiBiase w/ Maryse vs. Chris Jericho vs. Edge vs. The Miz vs. Evan Bourne vs. John Morrison vs. Randy Orton vs. Mark Henry

Randy Orton’s music hits, and ‘The Viper’ makes his way out to the ring to a big pop from the crowd. The Miz is the next man out to the ring, and he gets a bit of heat, but it tapers off pretty quickly. Mark Henry is the third man, and honestly I’m a bit surprised at the nice pop that he gets when his music hits. Entrant number five is Ted Dibiase, who comes to the ring with Maryse and gets a bit of heat. These entrances seem to be going by quicker than Smackdown’s. John Morrison is out next and he gets a very nice pop from the crowd. I haven’t mentioned yet, but once again there’s a ridiculous amount of ladders around the ring and entrance ramp. Chris Jericho is out next and he actually gets a bit of a mixed reaction from the crowd. Evan Bourne is out next to a nice pop from the crowd. It’s great to see this young guy in a main event match and getting a nice reaction from the crowd. Edge is the final man out to the ring, and it looks like we’re ready to kick things off.

A ladder is set up in the corner, and Miz charges Morrison, finding himself flapjacked face first into the ladder. Dibiase charges, and eats a drop toe hold, also into the ladder. Morrison sets up the ladder and climbs, getting to the top. Edge is quick to climb the other side and he and Morrison slug it out. Jericho sets up another ladder, and Orton climbs up on the other side. All four men reach for the briefcase, and Mark Henry comes out of nowhere, in between both ladders, and pushes them both over, sending them to the outside. Bourne is there and he springboards into Mark Henry, hitting a double knees to the chest. Maryse is shown checking on Dibiase, and she looks to the ladders. She climbs into the ring and takes off her heels.

Maryse sets up the ladder and she begins the climb. She gets all the way to the top, but Morrison is there. He tries to help her down, but she doesn’t want to come down. Morrison pulls her down and sets her on her feet and Dibiase tries to sneak up the ladder. Morrison stops him, but Dibiase slams him headfirst into another ladder. Dibiase grabs a ladder and tries to splash Morrison in the corner, but Morrison moves and Dibiase slams into the corner. On the outside Miz concentracts on Morrison, setting a ladder up against the ring pose, and body slamming Morrison into the barricade before slingshotting Morrison onto the ladder. Morrison climbs the ladder into the ring and uses another ladder to get to yet another ladder, which Edge is on, and Morrison comes close to grabbing the briefcase. Edge grabs Morrison’s legs and pulls him through the ladder, where he and Miz put another ladder, and slam it up and down into Morrison’s midsection before Edge simply pushes the ladder over. Morrison falls to the outside.

Winner of the MITB contract: The Miz

Finals of the Divas Championship Tournament – Maryse vs. Gail Kim

Maryse and Gail Kim are ready to go but… Excuse me, Vickie Guerrero is out to interrupt. She says it has come to her attention that the Raw Divas have had some disparaging comments about the Smackdown Divas, and being a Diva herself, she can say the best Divas are on Smackdown. Further, since she’s the only Diva that has authority in the building, she’s postponing the match, and turning this into a tag-team match. Maryse and Gail Kim will have to team up against Michelle McCool and Layla.
