MONDAY NIGHT RAW!
The video ends as as Raw opens, we can immediately see that we are in the office of General Manager Starr. The atmosphere seems somehow different though. Instead of the bright lights and immaculate display that we usually see, what greets us now is a dim ambience, accentuated by a mess of papers all over the desk and the floor. We can see somebody who can only be presumed to be Austin sitting at the desk, but with the back turned towards the line of sight. Seconds later though, we hear the chair creek as it spins around revealing General Manager Starr, as he is inaudibly mumbling to a porcelain mask, quite similar to the one always worn by Alex Kendall’s associate in Caitlin Callihan. Even though the shot moves in closer, we can only catch bits and pieces of what Austin is mumbling.
General Manager Starr: ……….underestimated you………..haunts me every day………….can’t get you out of my mind…………….going ma-
We see General Manager Starr look up as his office door is flung open and in walks the Intercontinental Champion in Jacob Senn.
“The Saviour” Jacob Senn: Why are the lights off?
Senn looks over and then flips on the lights to the office. We immediately see General Manager Starr look up from the mask and glare towards the champ as Senn walks closer to Austin’s desk and sits down.
“The Saviour” Jacob Senn: Look Austin, you’ve been dicking me around for the past two weeks. I want to know what concessions you’ve decided to give me. No more jerking the chain, it’s time to spill the beans. What do I get?
We see Austin pause for what seems like forever, before finally speaking.
General Manager Starr: What do you get? What do you get? Am I hearing you correctly Jacob? You’re in my office demanding to know what extra perks I am going to give you for a job that you should be thankful you even have. Here is a news flash Jacob, you should be damn grateful that you are in the spot that you are in. There are twenty men waiting in line who would literally sell their own mothers down the river just for the chance to have what you have, and be in the spot that you are in right now. Who in the hell do you think you are? What makes you any more special than them Jacob? You win one match, you win one championship and now you think you are in a position to make demands. You think that you can threaten me with leaving for that sink hole Smackdown and that will somehow influence me to give you what you want.
Pfft.
Here is some more news for you Jacob, you are contractually bound to defend the Intercontinental Title at Wrestlemania II against McIntyre. So if you want to float around in obscurity on Smackdown, getting sacrificed to Valentino’s warped sense of entertainment; then go right ahead. Because no matter what happens Jacob, you will still work for me either way, you will still perform for me on Raw if I choose to book you.
We can see Austin start to tremble now as he stands up. He looks down at the mask still in his hand, and then looks over towards Jacob Senn. Looking down at the mask one more time, we see Austin slam it onto the floor and hear it break with a forceful crack.
General Manager Starr: To answer your question Jacob. You get nothing, absolutely nothing. Now leave my office.
We see Austin sit back down while a fuming Jacob takes a step towards him. Perhaps realizing this may happen, we see Austin push a button on his desk before turning his chair away from Jacob. In a mere matter of seconds, we see three large men wearing dark shirts enter the room. A now visibly fuming Jacob Senn looks back at the security team and then towards Austin. Deciding that he doesn’t want any trouble, we see Jacob turn and push his way past the security as he leaves. Once Jacob is completely gone, the security leaves and the shot goes back to Austin who is still sitting down at his desk with his back turned.
General Manager Starr: The time has finally come……
We then see Austin stand up and abruptly leave his office. What could he mean? I guess we’re gonna have to wait and find out. The shot then fades to dark and goes back to ringside.

Match 1: Mr. Swag-A-Licious vs. Professor of Thuganomics
(Rap Battle)
In the ring we see Professor of Thuganomics and Swag-A-Licious and both are being boo’d and cheer’d. Both holding microphones. The announcer begins to speak.
Announcer: This is Thy WWE’s very first rap battle. On my right is non other that P.O.T!!!!!!!! And on my left, is opponent…Swag-A-Licious!!!!!!! P.O.T will go first and then the fans will react, Swag-A will go next and the one with more cheers win.
P.O.T smiles and walks into the middle of the ring as a nice beat begins to play.
P.O.T: Lets pretend this never happened,
That I never wanted to be a rapper,
That I never wrote rhymes in all my classes.
Lets pretend,
POT never picked up a pen,
Pretend he had no motivation,
That he sat outside all day and played with his friends,
He thought no point in trying cause theres no way you win.
He never dreamed of performing in MSG and didnt give a shit,
He didnt go for it he just wished it!!!!
The fans cheer semi loud as POT smiles and nods his head. POT walks back into his corner as Swag-A-Licious steps up as a different beat begins.
Swag-A-Licious: Girls be all over my nuts cuz they say they Nutrious

P.O.T shakes his head and laughs but the fans actually liked it. They cheered, not as loud as they did for POT but they cheered. Swag-A cocks a smirk and winks at POT. That must’ve hit that certain spot and POT cracked and went after Swag-A. He kicked him in the stomach and irish whipped him into the ropes. Swag-A came back and POT sets him up for a FU. POT connects with it and leaves the ring. POT cocks a smirk as the show fades to black.

Match 2: Drew McIntyre vs. Randy Orton
(If McIntyre wins, he gets to pick the stipulation for his title match at the PPV)
We come back from a commercial break to see Randy Orton standing in the ring. People who don't show up for championship matches apparently don't get televised entrances.
Don Chuckles: Here is Randy Orton! Last time we heard from him, he was busy skipping out on a world title match!
Phil Latio: Yeah, instead of facing Sheamus he was busy having dinner with his family.....
Drew McIntyre's theme song hits, and he walks out to a mixed reaction. He poses for the crowd, holding up Jacob Senn's Intercontinental Championship belt. With an arrogant smirk on his face, he struts down to the ring.
Ring Announcer: From Ayr, Scotland, weighing in at 256 pounds...The Chosen One....Drewww, McIntyre!
McIntyre slides into the ring and poses again with the belt, before turning his sights on Randy Orton. He looks him up and down and snorts in disgust. The referee tells the men to go into their corners, but Drew shrugs, hauling off and punching Orton square in the nose, and the referee calls for the start of the match.
DING DING DING!!
McIntyre continues his assualt, laying into Randy Orton with vicious punch after punch until Orton is against the ropes. McIntyre whips him to the other side, and Orton comes bouncing off the ropes, only to get nailed with a dropkick by Drew. Again Drew whips him to the ropes, and drives his big boot right into Orton's face, crushing his nose. McIntyre walks in a circle around Orton, taunting and mocking him. The camera pans in on Orton's face, and his nose appears to be broken, blood flowing freely.
Don Chuckles: This is getting really ugly, really quick Phil
Phil Latio: This doesn't bode well for the Viper...
McIntyre waits for Orton to rise, grabs him around the midsection, and plants him with a belly to belly suplex, followed by a swinging neckbreaker. McIntyre picks Orton up and lays him against the ropes. He runs forward and hits a stiff clothesline that sends Orton tumbling over the top rope and out of the ring. Drew quickly follows him, and rolls him over on his stomach. Drew locks in a crossface submission, appyling pressure against the broken nose as Orton screams in pain, and Drew merely grins sadistically.
Don Chuckles: Someone has to stop this....
Phil Latio: I agree, the referee just needs to call for the bell and end the match before he gets seriously hurt.
He releases the hold and rolls Orton into the ring. McIntyre rolls in shortly after posing to the crowd once again. He picks up Randy Orton and hits him with the Scot Drop, a reverse STO, and makes the cover.
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
Just as the referees hand is coming down for the three count, Drew grabs Orton by the hair and lifts his shoulder off the mat, laughing. He picks Orton up once again, and motions to the crowd that the end is near. He hits the Future Shock DDT at a high angle that looks like it could have damanged Orton's neck. He makes the cover once again.
ONE!
TWO!
THR-
Again Drew lifts Orton off the mat.
Don Chuckles: Hey, I know Orton doesn't have any heart, and is a flaky competitor, but this is just going too far....
Phil Latio: I don't know what to say, this is just disturbing.
The crowd at this point has gone dead silent, in shock of what they are witnessing. Drew stands up and stomps on the ankle and knees of Orton, who clutches them in agony. Drew grabs his legs, and steps trhough, for what appears to be a sharpshooter. He crosses the ankles, and turns Orton around. While applying a sharpshooter, Drew grabs the ankle and twists further than it is meant to go.
Don Chuckles: What in the hell is that? It looks like a sharpshooter with an ankle lock! That looks incredibly painful!
Phil Latio: This is called the Highlander Don, and what a devastating submission hold it is! Look at the sick angle that his body is contorted.
Drew wrenches the hold, and Orton immediately taps out, and the referee finally calls for the bell.
DING DING DING!!
Drew does not immediately release the hold as Orton screams out in pain, and screams something about "Samantha", his wife, or ex wife, or something nobody cares about. Drew continues to laugh as he holds the submission for a good ten seconds after the bell, until three referees come down to the ring and manage to get Drew off of Orton.
Ring Announcer: Here is your winner....Drew McIntyre!!
Drew grabs the Intercontinental belt and hold it high as his music is played, and then heads to the back, a smile plastered across his features.
Don Chuckles: A disturbing sight indeed....
Phil Latio: Drew McIntyre means business, and he comes to wrestle. If you don't bring your A game against this man....this is what happens.
Orton stands up in the ring and looks dejected as we see the dark shirt wearing men from earlier return once again. The face of General Manager Starr appears on the big screen once again, and he does not look at all pleased.
General Manager Starr: I am going to get right to the point Mr. Orton. I grow tired of you begging me to book you on my show, and then you deciding that you don’t need to perform at your highest level. So effective immediately, your services will no longer be welcomed here. Your contract has been terminated, effective immediately. Now get the garbage out of my building. I don’t ever wanna see him again.
We see Orton stand his ground in the ring, but the moment the security team swarms the ring, he realizes that he would just get beaten down if he tried to fight. So we see Orton allow himself to be apprehended by the security team as they escort him from the ring and through the back of the arena. Right before we get to the exit, we see the Thy WWE World Champion Sheamus emerge from the shadows, smiling at the sight in front of him. Sheamus steps in front of the security and comes face to face with Orton, who is too dejected to even look Sheamus in the eye.
Sheamus: Ay fella, I always told you that you were never in my league. And this proves it, good riddance boy.
The champ then steps aside as the security team opens the door and forcibly throws Randy Orton out of the arena, hopefully to be never seen again.
Don Chuckles: Here is Randy Orton! Last time we heard from him, he was busy skipping out on a world title match!

Match 3: The Undertaker vs Shawn Michaels

Phil:Ladies and gentlemen,in the next match we shall witness Thy WWE's phenom The Undertaker go one on one with "The Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels who will be making his debut.
Don:HBK surely isn't the luckiest man on the planet.
Phil:He sure isn't having to face someone like The Undertaker in his debut.
Steve Cruise:Ladies and gentlemen,approaching the ring from San Antonio,Texas weighing and 225 pounds,he is "The Heart Break Kid" Shawn Michaels!
As the camera moves back to the ring,HBK can already be seen in the ring with a serious look on his face as a few feint cheers can be heard in the arena.As HBK's music stops,"Rest in Peace" by Jim Johnston immediately hits the arena as the crowd lets out a huge pop.The lights go out and the camera moves to the entrance ramp where The Undertaker can be seen coming out from behind the curtain wearing his black outlaw jacket and cowboy hat.The druids can be seen at the sides of the ramp in their black hooded robe holding up their flaming torches.Creating a mystical yet unholy environment in the entire arena.
Steve Cruise:And his opponent,hailing from Death Valley,weighing at 299 pounds,he is Thy WWE's phenom,The Undertaker!
The Undertaker slowly starts walking down the ramp as HBK can be seen ringside still looking as confident as always.The Undertaker slowly makes his way to the steel steps and walks up them.He stands at the corner for some time as usual and takes off his hat.Fog covers the entire ring as The Undertaker enters the ring and stands in the center of the ring.He takes off his jacket and hands it over to the ring announcer who returns to ringside.As both men stand at two corners,the ref signals for the bell.
DING!

Don:Huge move from the Undertaker as he gets the initiative.
Phil:HBK looks a bit drunk,do you know if anything happened to him Don?
Don:Come on,we should be grateful that he's in a wrestling ring instead of retirement home,the guy's 46!
The Undertaker gets HBK to his feet and sends him crashing into the opposite turnbuckle with a massive irish whip.The Undertaker once again runs towards the turnbuckle and tramples HBK with another clothesline as HBK falls to his feet.The Undertaker pulls the grounded HBK to the center of the ring before getting him to his feet.The Undertaker loads HBK on his shoulder and runs towards the turnbuckle and drops him face burst on it.As HBK turns around,The Undertaker twists his arm and goes up to the top turnbuckle.

Suddenly,HBK pulls The Undertaker by the arm as The Undertaker hits the mat hard.Shawn quickly bounces off the ropes and hits him with a leg drop without wasting any time.He gets HBK to his feet and goes for a belly to belly suplex.But however,fails to do so because of the Undertaker's weight advantage as The Phenom hits HBK with a belly to belly suplex of his own.
Phil:As I said he's drunk.Trying to hit the Undertaker with a move like that with his size is nothing short of stupidity.
The Undertaker takes a look at the grounded HBK before bouncing of the ropes and connecting with a massive leg drop as he goes for the cover.The referee starts counting.........

2....No!Kickout by Shawn!
Don:HBK is taking quite the beating here.

Match 4: Angel (Mark Greenburg) vs. Stalker KnighT
Both men would lock up in the center of the ring and they started off strong as Mark would catch Knight off guard with an arm drag. But Knight was back to his feet and quickly grabbed Mark into a bear hug but the size difference was seen as Mark merely hit a few elbows into Knight. Markt would grab Knight’s arm whipping Knight into the corner. Mark charged in with a spear but Knight had moved as Mark would run shoulder first into the turnbuckle post. Mark held his shoulder as he turned around to find Knight running at him and jumping into a Head Scissors.
Mark was tossed to the side as Knight came over to his downed body and out of nowhere Knight would go for the standing 450 splash but Mark brought his knees up as Knight’s chest was connected by the knees. Knight fell off to the corner holding his midsection and Mark got back up to his feet. Mark would lock in the Sharpshooter on Knight pulling back on the move to get Knight to tap out. Knight would reach for the ropes and with only being an inch from them his hand grabbed the bottom rope. The referee made Mark break the hold. Mark would bring Knight to his feet looking at him Mark would hit a quick DDT putting Knight back to the mat again, with the move hit Mark would go for a cover.

Match 5: "The Saviour" Jacob Senn vs. Xavier Oden
(Non Title)
We can see Oden on his way to the ring, getting ready for this all important match. But as he turns a corner he runs right into a grinning Dominic Reynolds. Oden however, doesn’t show the slightest bit of fear or intimidation as he stares Reynolds down.
Xavier Oden: Did you take too many blows to the head Reynolds? Did you not hear me two weeks ago in Starr’s office? You won’t do a damn thing Reynolds, because you know that I will beat your ass just like I did at Attrition. Maybe you need to go spend a few more hours crying at your daddy’s bed Reynolds, telling him how much you suck and how bad of a failure you are.
We see Reynolds continue to smirk as Oden berates him some more.
Xavier Oden: God, how ashamed of you would he be if he seen how embarrassing you are Reynolds. Pathetic, just pathetic-
Reynolds then smacks Oden hard across the face and Oden immediately comes back and he and Reynolds start to brawl in the backstage area. Neither man really has an advantage; it just looks more frustration and anger boiling over. As security and arena staff swarm, we see Reynolds display some wrestling skill as he takes Oden down to the ground. In the ensuing melee, the camera gets knocked down and the shot goes to ringside.
Don Chuckles: Ladies and gentleman, I’m getting word right now that this match will still continue. But with a replacement opponent for our Intercontinental Champion, who could it be Phil?
We see Jacob Senn come out first as his music blasts loud over the speakers. Once he gets inside of the ring, he takes off his title and hands it to the referee. He then looks to the top of the stage, and it only takes a few seconds before we hear the Captain's theme music blasting over the sound system, and he sweeps aside the curtains. He unsheathes the cutlass at his side, and points it at Jacob Senn, slicing twice diagonally into the air, as he mouths..."X marks the spot"

Captain Creambeard vs. “The Saviour” Jacob Senn
Don Chuckles: Really?
Phil Latio: The replacement to face the Intercontinental champion is Captain Creambeard?
Don Chuckles: What a joke, well folks looks like this will be a short match...
The crowd begins to take up a chant
Main Event: Triple H vs. Christian Knight
Phil Latio: I'm excited for this one Don, it should be a great match
Don Chuckles: Both competitor's are in the ring, and the match is about to get underway-
All of a sudden, Sheamus' theme song hits and the crowd immediately begins to boo. He makes his way down to the ring in normal fashion, the Undisputed championship belt strapped around his waist.
Don Chuckles: What is this all about?
Phil Latio: I guess we are about to find out
Sheamus, instead of entering the ring, walks around and approaches the commentary table. Triple H glares down at Sheamus, pointing at him and mouthing something. Sheamus stops and exchanges a few words, then smirks, and continues to the table. He takes a seat and puts on a set of headphones.
Don Chuckles: What are you doing out here?
Sheamus: Well I thought I'd get a front row seat to observe my competition for Wrestlemania fella
Phil Latio: Good to have you Sheamus
Don Chuckles rolls his eyes and the referee signals to the timekeeper's table.
DING DING DING!!
The two wrestlers meet in the center of the ring, staring eachother down and exchanging heated words. Christian Knight shoves Triple H hard in the chest, causing him to take a step back. The Game comes forward with a hard right hand, and pushes him into the corner. Triple H nails Knight in the corner a few times, before Knight grabs him and switches positions, laying into Triple H with a few good shots of his own. The referee breaks them apart and they reset in the middle of the ring, where they lock up. Triple H breaks the hold and steps back, kicking Knight in the gut, following up with an overhand punch to the skull, causing Christian to temporarily go to a knee before rising again. Triple H again delivers a powerful right hand, sending Knight into the corner once more. He grabs a hold of the ropes for leverage and begins to stomp Knight. As The Game goes for another stomp Knight grabs leg, sweeping the other one and Triple H falls to the mat. Knight, holding onto the leg, drags Triple H to the center of the ring, before dropping an elbow onto the knee.
Knight brings the Game to his feet, and Triple H immediately fires a right hand, but Knight ducks, gets behind Triple H grabs him around the waist, to attempt a german suplex. Triple H fires an elbow back and smacks Knight in the face twice. He goes for a third strike to loosen the hold, but Knight simply ducks, as the two are now face to face, the Game still held around the waist. Christian Knight drops his shoulder, taking Triple H to the mat with a double leg takedown. Still holding the legs, he falls backwards, catapulting Triple H face first into the turnbuckle. Triple H bounces off the turnbuckle as Knight runs to the ropes. Triple H staggers near the ropes, as Christian Knight comes running off the ropes, then leaping into the air, dropkicking Triple H over the top rope.
Christian Knight follows him outside the ring, and goes to pick Triple H up, but gets punched in the abdomen. Triple H, wasting no time, irish whips Knight towards the steep steps, but the move is reversed, and instead Triple H goes crashing hard into the steps. Triple H is picked up and gets rolled back into the ring. Knight gets in the ring, as Triple H gets to his feet. As Knight approaches Triple H lifts him into the air, turns 180 degrees, and drops him with a double A spinebuster. He grabs Knight, leading him up to his feet, and grabs the arm. With a tremendous amount of force that causes Triple H to fall over, he sends Christian Knight sternum first into the corner, which he bounces off of and crumples onto the mat. Triple H makes the cover.

Christian Knight gets his foot on the bottom rope instead of kicking out, the wind temporarily stolen from his lungs. Picking Knight up again, Triple H lifts him up for a suplex, but Knight kicks his legs and manages to get back down, reversing, and hitting the Game with a snap suplex. Knight floats over, locking in a cross armbar. Triple H struggles to get out of the hold, and eventually reaches the ropes, and the submission is broken.
Don Chuckles: A great main event we are having so far
Phil Latio: I agree, alot of back and forth action. What do you think Sheamus?
Sheamus: Well I'll tell you fella, Triple H is one hell of a competitor, and I respect his in ring ability, and look forward to one hell of a match at Wrestlemania. But you have to hand it to this Christian Knight kid, hes tough, and definitely not one to be taken lightly.
Christian Knight grabs Triple H by the hair and brings him to his feet. The Game grabs Knight and goes to irish whip him to the ropes, but Knight reverses. Instead of whipping him, he holds on, and delivers a thunderous lariat to Triple H. He follows Triple H to the mat, going to a knee, and locking in an armbar. Triple H works his way to his feet, and elbows Knight in the ribs a few times until he is doubled over. Triple H then drops Christian with a quick, but still DDT, immediately hooking the leg for the pin. Christian Knight kicks out at two, and both men get to their feet. Triple H is thrown to the ropes, and coming off the rebound Triple H leaps into the air, smashing Knight hard in the face with a high knee. He drags Knight to his feet, grabs him around the head, and takes him to the mat with a headlock takedown. He wrenches in the hold for a few seconds, before Knight brings his legs up to get Triple H in a head scissors hold. Triple H gives up his headlock to be able to extract himself from the headscissors, and both men are on their feet once again. Triple H nails Knight with a hard right, but Knight comes back with one of his own, and they exchange a few punches. Knight staggers back, bounces off the ropes and hammers Triple H with a shot. Triple H does the same, delivering an even harder shot. Knight also repeats it again, determined to get a "one up" on Triple H, but as he approaches Triple H grabs his head and jumps, driving his face onto his knee as he comes back down.
Don Chuckles: Vintage Triple H right there!
Phil Latio: A close matchup so far, these guys are putting on a clinic.
Triple H spins Christian Knight around and locks in an abdominal stretch, and Knight grits his teeth in pain, and with a sudden burst of raw energy, he untangles his leg, and hip tosses Triple H to the mat. Triple H gets back up immediately and swings, but Knight slips behind him, grabs him, and hits a german suplex. He doesn't release the grip, however, and brings him up for another one, and connects. Again, he brings him up to deliver a third, in a Benoit-esque moment, and pulls it off. He goes for the cover.

Kickout!
Not allowing him to get up, Knight locks in a headlock, but Triple H manages to work his way to his feet. He lifts Knight up into the air and drops him with a back body drop. Both men lie on the mat to catch their breath. They both get to their feet halfway through the ten count. Triple H runs forward with a clothesline, but Knight gets to his feet, and gets nailed with another. Knight gets to his feet again, a little slower this time, as the Game runs forward and hits a swinging neckbreaker on his opponent. Triple H brings Knight to his feet, but Knight grabs the Game and tosses him over his head with a belly to belly suplex. As Triple H rises, Knight goes for The Crossover, but Triple H reverses, kicks him in the gut, hooks the arms, and drops him with a pedigree, and makes the cover.

Don Chuckles: A good match here Phil, both men putting forth a great effort.
Phil Latio: Can't take anything away from either competitor, but in the end the King of Kings prevailed.
Ring Announcer: Here is your winner....Triiiple...H!
The Game's music plays and his arm is raised in the air. Sheamus takes off the headset, and stands at ringside, giving a slow applause for Triple H. Triple H looks down at Sheamus, pointing at him, and mouthing something. The words were not heard, but his intent was clear as he signalled around his waist, that he would be the next Undisputed Champion. Raw goes off the air as the Wrestlemania opponents stare eachother down.
Don Chuckles: Thanks for tuning into Monday Night Raw, we'll see you next week folks! [/center]
