This episode of Monday Night Raw features John Cena in action against Jack Swagger, a six Diva tag team match, and a visit or two from Santa. All this plus a whole lot more.

Tonight we emanate from beautiful Tampa, Florida.

We begin with tonight’s special guest host, free-agent Major League Baseball outfielder, Johnny Damon getting booed on his way to and in the ring. He does his best to appeal to the crowd. He says Santa will be here to grant the wish of a superstar. I won’t even go into too much detail as to what happens next. Lets just say it involves a guy in a tiger costume and a hot blonde swinging a golf club. Ugh.

Gail Kim, Kelly Kelly, and Divas Champ Melina vs. Maryse, Jillian, and Alicia Fox in a 6 Diva tag team match.
All the combatants are dressed in some sort of Santa gear. Endgame: Maryse tries to body slam Kelly, and Melina drop kicks Kelly’s back. She falls onto Maryse for the 1-2-3. Your winners as a result of a pinfall, Gail Kim, Kelly Kelly, and Melina.

DX is in the arena before the event, and they crawl under the ring. They light their green glowsticks, find a light swightswitch, and magically, they’re in a hallway. They enter “Little People’s Court.” There’s a jury of little people, and the judge is a little person. They’re getting sued by Hornswoggle. Oof. They play a video package of DX’s recent harassment of Swoggs. Ugh.

Legacy vs. Kofi Kingston, Evan Bourne, and Mark Henry in a six man tag team match. Mark and Kofi get the early work. Hot tag to Bourne results in a house of fire. It’s short lived though, as Orton and DiBiase double team Bourne. They continue the beat down on Bourne until he hot tags Kofi. Endgame: Orton tags in DiBiase who walks into a Trouble in Paradise kick from Kofi for the 1-2-3. Your winner, as a result of a pinfall, Kofi Kingston, Evan Bourne, and Mark Henry.

Backstage, Damon, Carlito, Chris Masters, Eve, egg nog, mistletoe, Sgt. Slaughter dressed as Santa…. ‘nuff said.

Another painful Little People’s Court segment results in a replay of the DX pedigree on Hornswoggle, several insults of little people, and DX being pelted with garbage. Oof.

John Cena vs. Jack Swagger.
Remember, Cena promised he wouldn’t lose until he won the WWE Title again. Very good match here though. Swagger gets in a lot of offense before Cena turns it around. Endgame: Swagger misses a splash from the corner, and Cena puts him in the STF, Swagger taps. Your winner as a result of a submission, John Cena.

Backstage, a Santa who sounds a lot like Dusty Rhodes is talking to Damon. They are interrupted by MVP. He wants a non-title match with Sheamus tonight. Dusty Claus and Damon grant his wish.

Chris Masters w/ Eve vs. Carlito.
Endgame: Carlito attempts a backward springboard elbow, and Masters catches him in the Masterlock. Carlito passes out. Your winner as a result of a submission, Chris Masters. Post-match, Eve is in the ring and she produces mistletoe. They kiss, and yes, the boob-bounce is back. Only his left one is bouncing though, (you know, like his heart).

Backstage, the tiger, the Bella Twins, The Miz, IRS as Santa Claus, the golf club swinging hot blonde, Johnny Damon, Mae Young, mistletoe. Done.

WWE Champ Sheamus vs. MVP in a non-title match.
Pre-match, we learn that next week’s special guest host will be Timbaland. Sheamus dominates early on, and MVP does get in some token offense, but it’s short lived. Endgame: Sheamus hits MVP with the Crucifix power-bomb for the 1-2-3. Your winner as a result of a pinfall, Sheamus. Post-match, Cena slides into the ring with a mic. He demands a re-match right now! Sheamus bails.

Backstage, Mr. McMahon talks to Johnny Damon. Damon makes the Sheamus vs. Cena match for next week. He asks McMahon about Bret Hart, to which McMahon replies that that’s a bah humbug question, and bails.

US Champ The Miz vs. Santino (Claus).
Santino comes to the ring dressed as… well, you know. He leads the crowd in a chorus of “Santino Claus is coming to town.” Miz clobbers Santino, and we’re all thankful. Endgame: Miz drops Santino with the Skull Crushing Finale for the 1-2-3. Your winner as a result of a pinfall, The Miz.

Backstage, The Big Show gets interviewed by Josh Matthews. Show tells us he’s on his way to the ring to call out Santa Claus.

The Big Show is in the ring and he calls out Santa, who comes out accompanied by the Bella Twins. Santa sits on Show’s knee and asks him if he’s been a good boy. Show says he wants Chris Jericho back on Raw. Santa grants his wish, Chris Jericho will return to Raw next week. They are interrupted by Hornswoggle who pulls off the Santa wig and hat to reveal that Santa is none other than Chris Jericho! Swoggs retreats under the ring, and comes back out followed by the bailiff and jury from the Little People’s Court, all dressed in DX army gear. They attack Jeri-Show who make short (couldn’t resist) work of the little people. Big Show even sidewalk slams one. They corner Hornswoggle, who cranks up the band. He kicks Jericho in the shin. (Sweet Shin Music). Just as Show is about to chokeslam Swoggs, the real DX makes the save. They make Hornswoggle the official DX mascot. Snow starts to fall, and the trio crotch chops everyone. Merry Christmas!

Fade to black, good night from Tampa.
