Tuesday, May 27, 2008 - Colorado Springs, CO
source: WWE.com - As May comes to an end, the world of sports-entertainment is chomping at the bit like never before as the Superstars in the Land of the Extreme are aching for One Night Stand to arrive. Both the self-proclaimed “Mexican Warrior” and Mr. Money in the Bank looked to gain an edge heading into Sunday’s contest that would determine the No. 1 Contender to Kane’s gold as Night of Champions.
This night’s main event pit the ECW Champion against the WWE Tag Team Champions in a Handicap Match. The Miz looked to defeat Kane for the second consecutive week while John Morrison hoped to overpower the Big Red Machine and make the other hopeful No. 1 Contenders sweat.
Kane dominated the WWE Tag Champs early in the match even as Miz & Morrison tried to wear him down tagging in and out and working him over with kicks and punches in their corner. After surviving a double team clothesline, Kane begins to take Miz apart when Morrison gets involved. Kane goes up-top to execute the flying clothesline following with a dual chokeslam on both men. Miz and Morrison kick out of the chokehold and begin to beat on Kane when the ref calls for a DQ.
Suddenly all of the participants of the One Night Stand Singapore Cane match are in the ring and Kane, along with Big Show, begin to clean house. In the end, the two goliaths are alone in the ring, staring each other down as the show closes.

KANE vs The Miz: Non-Title Match
Tuesday, May 20, 2008 - DES MOINES, Iowa
source: WWE.com - 48 hours after their tag match at Judgment Day, The Miz met ECW Champion Kane on Tuesday night. Despite a list of injuries Miz took time before the match to list - a concussion, sore back, stiff neck and constant headaches - he none the less was ready to seek retribution for being brutally chokeslammed by the Big Red Machine at Judgment Day, and this time he meant to beat Kane.
Kane immediately attacked Miz and started beating on his injured body parts. Not a great idea to announce your injuries to the world just before facing Kane - Good point mad by Adamle. Miz tried to make a comeback, but Kane dumped him to the floor where Miz rammed him back-first into the ringpost. Back in the ring, Miz worked on Kane's back and upper neck and Kane countered with a sidewalk slam for a nearfall. After nailing a flying clothesline, Kane called for the end, but Miz elbowed out of a chokeslam grip, which seemed to piss Kane off to no end. He laid into Miz then hung him upside down in the corner and tried to snap his neck. Ref reached a five count and he DQ'ed Kane for not breaking in the corner. Before The Miz could even realize his DQ victory, let alone celebrate, The Big Red Machine chokeslammed him ring center then set about placing his neck in a steel chair, but Morrison slid in to save his partner from Kane's wrath.
At the beginning of the night, Estrada set up the tag match as a preview of the Singapore Cane Match at One Night Stand – where every active former ECW Champion will compete to determine the No. 1 Contender to Kane’s ECW Championship at Night of Champions on June 29th. John Morrison & Chavo Guerrero teamed up against CM Punk & Tommy Dreamer in a tag match that was interrupted in a “Big” way when Big Show stormed into the arena to remind everyone that he himself is also a former ECW Champion and should have been invited to compete in the match. Angered by ECW General Manager Armando Estrada’s faux pas, the World’s Largest Athlete took out his aggression on the ring full of champions. First, he viciously chokeslammed Chavo and CM Punk, and then tossed Morrison across the ring like a rag doll. Finally, after declaring he will once again be ECW Champion, Big Show chokeslammed ECW Original Tommy Dreamer to the canvas. Now, with the World’s Largest Athlete added into the mix, the competition just got a heck of a lot bigger – 400 more pounds.

WWE JUDGMENT DAY PPV
WWE Tag-Team Championship Match
Sunday, May 18, 2008 - Omaha, NE
From wwe.com - After their tag team victory against Chavo Guerrero & Bam Neely, Kane & Punk realized what a force they could be. They immediately challenged the WWE Tag Team Champions to a match at Judgment Day, as first seen in an AT&T Mobile exclusive video.
Kane & Punk were in control for the majority of the PPV match, but the tables quickly turned as the Big Red Machine chokeslammed The Miz outside the ring, and the Straightedge Superstar was distracted long enough for Morrison to take advantage and hit Punk with the Moonlight Drive to set up the three-count and the win.
Despite their Judgment Day loss, the Big Red Machine and the Straightedge Superstar have golden days ahead. No one has come close to taking Kane’s ECW Championship away from him since he won it at WrestleMania XXIV. Meanwhile, CM Punk still has a firm grasp on the briefcase he earned at WrestleMania in the Money in the Bank Ladder Match.

KANE vs The Miz
Tuesday, May 13, 2008 - Grand Rapids, MI
source: WWE.com - In a preview of sorts of Sunday’s Judgment Day, WWE Tag Team Champions The Miz & John Morrison individually faced Mr. Money in the Bank CM Punk and ECW Champion Kane, respectively. Punk's earlier loss to The Miz seemed to ratchet Morrison's confidence level up, but where The Miz faced Punk without his partner at ringside, Morrison had company.
Miz's constant interference in the match soon had Mr. Money in the Bank coming to ringside to even the score. In the ring, Morrison went to work on Kane's legs to chop down the tree then took him to the corner and wrapped his leg around the ringpost. The action went to the mat where blows rained until Morrison went back to Kane's leg.
Kane rallied, getting to his feet to landing a series of uppercuts on Morrison before hitting a sidewalk slam, then executing a flying clothesline off the top rope on one good leg. As Kane called for the chokeslam, Miz tried to get involved, which led to a brawl on the floor with Punk. Morrison used the distraction to smash Kane with a Tag-Team title belt and followed with a springboard roundhouse kick to take Kane down and claim the pin and win.
Punk tried to save Kane from a double-team beating, but Miz gave Punk the Reality Check while Morrison punted Kane in the head to close the show.
