Chris Jericho has been a man possessed on making HBK's life a living hell ever since the fake knee injury at Backlash. Jericho went as far as smashing Michaels' head through a television screen. Now Y2J is out to save himself from everyone who still cheers for Michaels and boos Jericho.

Since losing partial vision in his eye, the Showstopper has been more of a thorn in Jericho's side as usual. From costing him the Intercontinental Championship at Night of Champions to assaulting Jericho last Monday night on RAW, Michaels agreed to one thing that Y2J said: "The worst is yet to come."

 

ECW Championship

Mark Henry vs. Tommy Dreamer

Ever since beating Big Show and Kane at Night of Champions, Mark Henry has been an egotistical champion. Claiming to be unbeatable and unstoppable, the World's Strongest Man now has some backup to that claim: WWE Hall of Famer Tony Atlas.

Since then, no one has been able to even stagger the Champion...until now.

Tonight, the newest member of ECW faces one of the most well known ECW Originals in Tommy Dreamer. Since winning the championship, Henry's biggest challenger has been Dreamer.

Now Dreamer has a chance to win his first ECW Championship since the resurrection, and after dropping the champion with frying pan last week, don't be surprised if this is the upset of the night.

 

New York City Parking Lot Brawl

John Cena vs. JBL

Ever since losing to Cena at Wrestlemania, JBL has done anything and everything to make Cena's life a living hell. For most people, this feud is losing its luster.

In my opinion, this is the perfect ending to arguably one of the best rivalries in recent memory. JBL declared Martial Law after the Chairman was shelved due to injury. Ever since then, Layfield may have regretted trying to be the Chairman.

After getting tossed out by JBL's personal security, John Cena has been the anti-Martial of RAW. From recruiting Cryme Tyme to do some extracurricular work on JBL's prized limo to almost getting beheaded at the ending to RAW, Cena has been a man possessed.

Here's one quick DYK: The last Parking Lot Brawl in WWE history was Eddie Guerrero vs. ironically enough John Cena.

 

World Heavyweight Championship

CM Punk vs. Batista

It was one of the biggest moments in RAW history. For the first time since the MitB was used, CM Punk cashed it in on RAW and defeated Edge to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.

One of the most underrated Champions in history, Punk has been out to prove himself ever since. This Sunday, he faces the toughest challenge in his reign.

Punk won the World Title from Edge thanks to a fuming Animal who unleashed his aggression on the Rated R Superstar during Edge's "visit" to RAW the night after Night of Champions.

After defeating JBL, Cena and Kane in a Fatal Four Way, the Animal is now on a mission to win back the World Championship. At the Bash, both men have a chance to prove something not just to everyone else, but also to themselves.

 

WWE Championship

Triple H vs. Edge

After surviving John Cena at Night of Champions, Triple H went to SmackDown! to enjoy the victory over a great opponent. Instead, he was informed by GM Vickie Guerrero that he would face Edge at The Bash for the WWE Championship.

Here's the problem: If she knew what Triple H knew, she would have never given Edge the opportunity at the Championship.

The Rated R Superstar has blamed everyone except himself for losing the World Heavyweight Championship to Punk. For the past few weeks, Edge has tried anything and everything to get and advantage heading into the GAB.

Unfortunately, Edge didn't plan on Triple H dropping a bombshell on his wedding night that may have cost him his chance to become Champion.

After Vickie Guerrero found out about his affair with the wedding planner, how will this affect the match tonight when the Ultimate Opportunist faces The King of Kings for the WWE Championship?

Even bigger, will the McMahons unveil their plan of consequence to the members of RAW tonight?

Tune in tonight as Long Island (aka Foley Country) plays host to The Great American Bash!
