WWE results from the Backlash PPV, held Sunday at Philips Arena in Atlanta: Matt & Jeff Hardy over Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch to
retain the World Tag Team Title in the opener; Melina over Mickie James to retain the Women’s Title; Chris Benoit over MVP to retain
the U.S. Heavyweight Title; Vince McMahon won the ECW Heavyweight Title when he pinned Bobby Lashley in a handicap match that
included Umaga and Shane McMahon on Vince’s side; the World Heavyweight Title match between champion Undertaker and
Batista ended in a time limit draw when the Backlash set purposely collapsed onto them; and in the Last Man Standing WWE
Heavyweight Title match between champion John Cena and Edge, Randy Orton and Shawn Michaels in a four-way, ended when
Michaels superkicked Cena, who then fell on top of Orton for the pin, though Michaels was still standing.
‘Superstar’ Billy Graham and his wife, Valerie, have decided to file a lawsuit against the Phoenix Art Museum in Arizona, after an
attempt to visit the site last week to view the Rembrandt exhibit. Graham has stated that he felt embarrassed, humiliated, and degraded
when members of the museum’s staff mocked him about his personal wheelchair upon entering the facility, and after purchasing
tickets, were not allowed further access because they believed his wheelchair was “too high� and that he might fall into some of
the items being exhibited. Although they offered him a replacement chair, he refused, saying it did not comply to his requirements. They
received their money back, but have a press conference planned for tomorrow at 1:00 PM at the corner of Central and McDowell,
underneath the Rembrandt banner. If anyone would like to offer their statements in response to what is being called a “violation of
the Americans with Disabilities Act�, you may call the museum at (602) 257-1880, or email them at education@phxart.org.
We inadvertently announced that GWP had a show in Waleska this past weekend. Our apologies to anyone who attempted to attend the
event based on seeing it here. We had received information that the show was scheduled for “4/27�, as opposed to the actual
date, which is May 27.
If anyone has results from any of the events that did happen this weekend, please email them to us.
