Chris Jericho VS Big Show

United States Championship

WWE Championship
John Cena (unless Santino beats him) VS Winner of the fans vote

World Heavyweight Championship
Matt Hardy VS The Undertaker


News & Notes
- A masked man debuted on SmackDown, attacking Rey Mysterio. Many people backstage think that once the masked man wrestles, his moves will be a dead give-away, so he might not remain masked for too long.

- On RAW, Santino found a briefcase on the ground backstage. Many believe this is going to lead to a sub storyline involving either a new superstar or one currently in the opening card status being Bret Hart's assistant.

- Many believe that Shawn Michaels will win the voting for the WWE Championship match at Armageddon. If he does, he'll have 2 title matches in one night in his hometown of San Antonio. There's a good chance that Michaels could win both matches, though he'll be pretty banged up after his Hell in a Cell match against HHH.

- Former ROH star Bryan Danielson debuted on ECW as a part of the tag tourney. He teamed up with Evan Bourne. Many think it was obvious that Bourne carried the match, but have faith that Danielson will have a strong showing when he faces Ted DiBiase next week, one-on-one for the #1 Contendership of the ECW Title. It's worthy to note, however, that Christian will not be defending the title if he and Edge win the Tag Tourney.

- It is rumored that this WrestleMania will be The Undertaker and Shawn Michaels last match. If this is true, WWE needs to get 2 of their bigger development stars ready. RAW has already started their superstar initiative, and ECW is booming as of late. SmackDown has a fresh champion, but other than CM Punk and Taker, he doesn't have a leading heel opponent. It is believed that if JeriShow loses their tag titles at Armageddon, Jericho will challenge for the world heavyweight title.


Ratings for November
-Survivor Series had 5,632 combined views for the month of November. Lexicon will use this as a benchmark to judge the views of future PPV's. The obvious goal is to increase the view of each PPV. Each PPV has 2 weeks, then after that, all other views will be counted as DVD sales.

-Month of 11/1/09-11/29/09
RAW had 38,578 views for the month
ECW had 14,885 views for the month
SmackDown had 6,094 views for the month

- Many think that the reason that RAW won November by so much was because of the boost in the beginning, and that December will be much more interesting. ECW is the favorite to win December right now, but is still stifled because they only have enough time for 2 matches instead of 3, which is a loss of about 600 400-500 views. The highest rated segment was the opening to the 11/2/09 RAW, while the lowest rated segment was Mickie James VS Michelle McCool on SmackDown.


Match of the Month
- Every month we'll have a poll for the match of the month. Next November, we'll take the winners of each month and place them in a poll to determine the Match of the Year. Here's the poll for the month of November:
