JR: Welcome to the 21st Raw brand show, were hot of the Royal Rumble at what a way to kick the Pay Per View year off!. We�d love to go through all the highlights but quite frankly there so damn many!. At the Rumble we saw the Undisputed championship change hands yet again, prehaps the youngest ever Undisputed champion the Rock can break that cycle?
King: Im not too sure about that JR? But what I do know is the Franchise has got his ticket secured to main event at the biggest pay per view of the year... WRESTLEMANIA!. What a match that was JR, I was personally honoured to call the action on the Royal Rumble match.
JR: would have to agree King, tonight we have a main event set up off the royal Rumble, the team of Shane Douglas and Eddie Guerrero will face Lance Storm and Kurt Angle. As everyone knows, Shane Douglas Lance Storm and Kurt Angle were the last three men in the Royal Rumble, they all went out together, but it was down to a video replay that Shane Douglas become the Rumble winner. Lance Storm eliminated Eddie Guerrero, and we know they have had past history over the last few weeks!
King: We�ve neglected to mention one HUGE thing JR!.... NAITCH IS BACK!.. Ric Flair is back on Raw Stylin� and Profylin� and doing Commissionery type things HA HA!.
JR: Flair made a huge come back by first getting Chris Benoit to jump from Smackdown to Raw, then Ric Flair entered himself into the Royal Rumble and eliminated three out of the four Revolution members, How good was that to see, Ric Flair getting some retribution?
[The scene goes backstage and we see Kurt Angle walking down a corridor, he stops at a door, on the plague reads �Revolution�. Angle opens the door and walks in. Leviathan is in the corner, working on some small dumbbells warming up for his match. Over in the other corner we see Sabu doing some sit ups, also warming up for his match later tonight. Kurt puts his bag down on the floor]
Kurt : Where the hell is Brock?
Leviathan: He hasn�t showed up yet.
Kurt: This team is falling apart, you know I didn�t win these gold medals by turning up later for stuff!.im getting god dam sick of this...
Sabu: What the hell is your problem? He aint even working tonight, he�s got the night off?
Kurt: Well it seem�s to me he�s got every damn night off? Did you see me at the Rumble? There�s No I in Team but without me, Brock would have got taken apart in our Tag title match. Im sick of doing both shares of work. I did hope he would sort is act together, but a month down the line he�s still making no effort what so ever.
Sabu: What ever man...
Kurt: No not �what ever man�, a forget you Im outta here..
[Kurt picks up his stuff, and heads for the door, as he walks out Paul Heyman is there on his mobile, he has Brock�s tag team title in his other hand]
Heyman: What the hell do you mean your not gonna make it tonight? This isn�t how a unit works Brock.... Brock... BROCK.... HELLO!.... God damn.
Kurt: Don�t tell me he aint coming tonight.
Heyman: No... now Kurt before you get hasty, lets just have a little talk, I know you�ve been doing a lot more than your share of work lately, so lets talk things through.
Kurt: No I�ve had it Paul, im through with Lesnar... and infact im through with the Revolution. I joined this unit to make an impact, and quite frankly Im the only who�s been making any impact all!
[Kurt snatches Brock�s Tag title from Heyman and heads off down the corridor]
Heyman (To himself): If your not part of the Revolution.... your part of the problem! You don�t just walk out of the Revolution... no one treats Paul E Heyman like this... Mr red white and blue will get whats comming to him in due time!.
[The scene goes to the parking area where we see Hollywood Hulk Hogan and a group of what seem to be security guards]
Hollywood: I want this arena tighter than a McMahon�s wallet ok. No one comes in without ID, once they�re in you notify me so I can keep a check on everything. I especially want you to look out for this man...
[Hollywood shows them a picture of Triple H]
Hollywood: This man is not to be let into the arena.... UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES!. Does everybody have any questions...
[The security guards shake their heads, then spread off into different directions. Hollywood walks towards the camera onto the Raw interview set, the Coach then pulls Hollywood aside for an interview]
Coach: Mr. Hogan... do you really think there is much chacne of Triple H coming here tonight? After all he did loose the Undisputed title to the Rock at the Royal Rumble, so he is not able to come to Raw?
Hollywood: Even when he was the champ, and I ordered him not to come on my show did he comply?
Coach: No...
Hollywood: What did he do Coach...
Coach: well he kinda.... he... sorta...
Hollywood: He made a fool out of my dude, Hollywood Hulk Hogan is no fool, Triple H will try and get in the arena tonight and I have all possible entrances covered. I assure you Raw will be Game free tonight!
[Just then the monitor behind Hollywood and Coach comes on, we see a sledge hammer slowly being dragged across the floor. Hollywood and Coach take notice. The shot then widens and the camera moves up we see Triple H in the parking lot outside, Triple h then walks past the Hulk mobile. And stops, resting the sledge hammer on the bonnet]
Triple H: Hey Hollywoood, you think you�ve got everything under control do you? Well I would disagree with that... but Hollywood... do you finally agree that you need me... that this brand needs me...? I hope so for your case, I may not be the Undisputed champion, but that isn�t going to stop me. When has anything ever stopped me?. Im in the parking lot, just itching to meet you Hollywood. You know what my metallic friend is even more excited to meet you... im waiting Hollywood.... tick tock...
[The transmission ends]
Hollywood: The son of a bitch...
[Hollywood runs of the interview set grabbing a group of security guards.]
Hollywood: Come on he�s in the parking lot, come on shift it....
[The scene watches Hollywood and the security guards run to the parking lot, we go back to the show where Leviathan is about to set off against D�lo Brown]

The King- Hahahaha , This is great Jr, D|lo is on a roll , and I|m down with the brown allright !
[ The scene goes backstage, we see Hollywood and the security guards arrive were Triple H was, next to Hollywood�s car. No damage has been done to the car, but Triple H is no where to be seen, some of the fatter security guards are out of breathe and are puffing and panting]
Hollywood: HELMSLEY... come out you coward...right dudes I want you to scout this entire area, I want you to find him and make sure he is escorted from the arenas grounds!. Come on get to work, im not paying you double time for nothing...
[The scene changes again and we see Kurt Angle with both tag straps over his shoulder, he has changed and is ready for his match later tonight. Kurt turns a corner and heads for another door, this time it reads � Raw Commissioner�. Kurt Angle opens the door and waits to see Flair. After a few moments the door opens but it is not Flair who is standing there, it is Chris Benoit]
Benoit: What the hell do you want...
Kurt: Ohhh sorry My. Body guard... sish couldnt Flair get some who looks a little more menacing? Ha ha
[Benoit just stares at him looks to the ground The scnreams at the top of his voice....]
Benoit: BOO!
[Angle jumps backs, and looks a little embarrassed]
Kurt: Look is Flair here or not...
Benoit: Maybe he is, maybe he isn�t, You wont be coming in If I have anything to do with it!
[Benoit and Angle square off. Flair comes to the door and calms the pair down]
Flair: benoit you got your match next.... go...go I�ll sort this thank you...
[Benoit reluctantly leaves, Angle pokes his tongue out in a childish gesture. He and Flair then walk into his office, the camera man follows them in. As we get inside we see that Lance Storm is also in the room. Kurt and Lance exchange looks at each then focus on Flair who has no sat in his chair]
Flair: Lance, Kurt tonight you face Eddie Guerrero and Shane Douglas, tonight you will function as a team, as one single body. You have never tagged together before, but Kurt you�re a tag champ, and Lance your multiple tag team champion when you were in ECW and WCW, so I cant see a problem there. But I do how ever have one problem for you both.... you see tonight you�ll be tagging together... But next week you�ll be in that ring going one on one, for the Number One contendership to the Intercontinental championship.... WHOOOOO!
Lance: Mr.Flair with all due respect, that seems backwards to me... don�t get me wrong I know I can take this pittyful American. But why make us tag tonight?
Kurt: Hold on a damn second... pitiful American? I have a question for you Mr. Charisma.... Where are your gold medals?
Lance: Well where is your Hardcore title?
Kurt:......... well where is your tag team belt...?
Flair: GUYS!... The Nature Boy is back, things are going to change around here, Im going to make it my duty that up and coming stars like yourself�s get the chances they rightfuly deserve!. No If you�ll leave me get on with some typing I need to get these sent off as soon as possible...
[Storm leaves the room before giving Kurt a disgusting look, Kurt hands around... Flair continues to type.... Kurt gives a little cough to get his attention]
Flair: Kurt... can I help you...
Kurt: Ah... Ric... may I call you Ric... good good.. Well no doubt you�ve noticed I have both the tag titles with me. Now im not sure if you saw my tag team match at the Rumble, hell if you can call it a TAG team match. Im a man of integrity Ric just as you are, and there�s only so much I can take. Quite frankly I don�t want to be a part of the Revolution and I don�t Brock Lesnar as my partner!. I just wanted to make official by telling you, and for you to clear everything and letting me have both the titles... Thanks Ric I knew you�d be cool about this..
[Kurt heads for the door but is not fast enough]
Flair: well there�s a slight problem with that Kurt, you see in order to have Tag Team Champions, we need two wrestlers, we don�t have a Tag Team Champion now do we. I tell you what Kurt, it�s been done before so Ill do it again. You get yourself a partner, then sometime soon you and that partner will defend the titles and the winner will become the tag team champions...
Kurt: Ok I guess that�s fair enough.... Just one other thing.... not that Im sacred of Brock or any other of the Revolution. But they cant take these belts off me can they...
Flair: Those titles are safe until you and a partner of your choosing defend them!
[Kurt walks out of the room with a huge smile across his face... he walks down the corridor. The scene goes back to ringside]
Match 2
Chris Benoit VS Diamond Dallas Page
JR : The next match should be a corker as Chris Benoit, makes his return to World Wrestling Entertainment and makes his return to RAW to take on Diamond Dallas Page a man that is a legend in the business and last night came so close to realising his dream once again and becoming a tag team champion with Kane. Chris Benoit also had a good night at the rumble, returning with a friend in Ric Flair and having a good spell in the rumble match before being eliminated by Kurt Angle...
((( BANG - Yo It's Me It's Me It's D.D.P!!! )))
King : DDP coming out here but looking a little out of sorts after losing a big match last night for the tag team titles. DDP posing for the crowd but he looks to be a bit out of shape and he must know that the sentimental fans must be supporting Ric Flair's bodyguard Chris Benoit here tonight.
((( Fear The Crippler - Chris Benoit )))
JR : And now here comes Chris Benoit minus Ric Flair who we believe will be watching closely in the backstage area. Chris Benoit should go far on Raw, he's proved his abilities in the past, a two time Undisputed Champion in WWE Sadistic but due to him losing the title both times whislt being out of sorts, he still believes he is a second string superstar, I tend to disagree but maybe others see it that way, but Chris Benoit will do what he's done throughout his career and continue to prove people wrong!
King : As now both men in the ring as the bell sounds...Benoit and Page lock up and Page now overpowering Chris Benoit and now into the side headlock, DDP though pushed at the ropes by Chris Benoit, he comes back and a hard knockdown by Chris Benoit, Page pops back up but is taken back down with a short arm clothesline straight away as Benoit goes into the ladderal press 1....that's not going to put Page away but Benoit into the cover again hooks the leg 1.....2...Page kicks out, but good ring tactics by Chris Benoit grinding down his opponents energy levels. Benoit now waits for Page to get up and DDP is up goes for his own clothesline but Benoit ducks and into a go behind, looking for the German Suplex, but Page breaking it up with elbow smashes to the Wolverine's head. DDP now facing Benoit and spins around into a Discus Punch style Clothesline and into a pinning predicament 1.........2.........Benoit rolls onto his stomach and quickly up to his feet and DDP is up also, he grabs Benoit by the head and now a punch to the floating ribs trying to set up a DDT but Benoit counters with a overhead throw to break up the DDT, both men down but now Benoit climbing on top of DDP hammering the back of the head and neck trying to lock in for the Crippler Crossface but DDP fights out of it...
JR : DDP rolling onto his back and kicking Benoit in the stomach with both feet and now tries to get back to his feet but Benoit charges at Page and takes his down with another sharp clothesline...The crowd is going nuts, they are really behind Chris Benoit as now he goes to work with some kicks to the back of DDP as he tries to get up, he eventually does but Benoit gets a hold of DDP and locks in for the snap suplex! but Benoit holds on and makes it a brace and into the ladderal press after the second snap suplex 1.......2......Page gets out somehow, getting his left shoulder off the canvas. Benoit now grabs DDP and into the fujawama armbar which is a difficult technical move but Benoit seems to perform it with ease, DDP is in excruciating pain, but he is agonisingly close to the ropes for him and he manages to grab the bottom rope. Benoit releases and now pulls DDP up and has him against the ropes and fierce knife edge chops which can be heard around the arena and you can see the red marks on the chest of Page. But Page ducks one and goes downstairs with the knee to the gut and counts with a DDT to Chris Benoit as now both men are down, but DDP is stirring into a cover on Benoit 1........2......Benoit kicks out.
King : The King of Budda Bing now gets up and is telling Chris Benoit to get up and face him, DDP now kick to Benoit's midsection and looks for a knife edge chop of his own but Benoit avoids the contact and side steps and gets behind DDP and grabs the waistlock, DDP is fighting it but Chris Benoit with a GERMAN SUPLEX!! Benoit is holding on, he's looking for a second....Benoit gets another!!! Benoit still not letting go with that vice like grip, Benoit going for the hat-trick and yes! Benoit with the trifecta as he stands up overlooking DDP and he signals a cut throat pose, he's going for the headbutt.....Benoit leaves the ring for the headbutt...
[Camera's momentarily flick backstage where we see The Nature Boy watching on smiling at Chris Benoit's encouraging performance...]
JR : Chris Benoit is up and he launches himself across the ring and connects with the Headbutt!! Chris Benoit now into the cover 1.........2..........3!!!! Chris Benoit has this match, his return to Raw is succesful and what a pleasure to watch this technically gifted wrestler truly is to the eye, a breath of fresh air on the RAW Brand as now Chris Benoit is celebrating and saluting the fans that thoroughly enjoyed the match, but look Page is up groggily! Page is irate, He's going to go after Benoit, he spins him round and looking for The Diamond Cutter! But excellent counter by The Rabid Wolverine taking down DDP into the Crippler Crossface! Chris Benoit has the Crossface locked in on Page and Page is tapping! Page is tapping! DDP has No Way Out of this ferocious submission until now Chris Benoit releasing the hold and standing over DDP, Chris Benoit is back folks and he made his statement here tonight!
Winner : Chris Benoit
(( IF YA SMELLLLL WHAT THE ROCK IS COOOKING...... ))
[The Millions of Rock�s fans get to their feet to great their hero, The Rock walks out wearing a suit and a pair of shades, more importantly the Undisputed title is slung over his shoulder. The Rock walks down the ramp, climbs the steps and walks into the ring. Once in the ring he climbs a turnbuckle... throws the title in the air. As soon as he does that the arena is a wash of flashes from the fans camera�s]
JR: The Rock has returned to Raw... what�s he gonna say...
Rock: FINALLY.... the ROCK has come back to....... RAW!. The Rock could go on and say without a shadow of about he knew he would be here tonight, he could talk about he could just feel it itching he was going to become the Undisputed champion at theeeeeeeee.... ROAYL RUMBLE. But the Rock isn�t because the fact of the matter is Triple H gave me possibly the hardest match of my life!. But the Rock over came all the odds, and is now a 2 time Undisputed champion. The Rock did it for another achievement to add to his long list, he did it for his family... but most of all he did for you...........THE PEOPLE!
[The roof of the arena is blown off the fans scream and a huge Rocky chant begins to circulate]
Rock: After loosing the title in November against Chris Benoit, The Rock strived to get this title back to a deserving champion, back to the people after all it is the people who shape this business....
[Just then there is a disruption in the crowd, Someone in the front row is kicking up a fuss, a man and a woman are complaining that someone are in their seats, the Rock notices them because they are making such a noise]
Rock: Hey jabroni in the black suit, in the front row sit your ass down before the Rock sits it downfor you...
[The man turns around, and it is infact Triple H, the Rock can not believe it, Triple H just burst out laugh at the Rock, Stephanie is with him and joins in the mocking...Triple h throws the two men in the aisle so him and Steph can sit down. Triple H insists the Rock continues]
Rock: Well I guess Hollywood Hulk Hogan was right... But as I was saying, it is in fact the people who shape this industry..
[The Rock gets distracted again, Stepganie is holding up a huge banner readings � RAW NEEDS HHH�. Then Triple H pulls out another huge banner it can not be missed by anyone, this one reads � HOGAN NEEDS HHH�. A huge chorus of boo�s fill the arena. Some how Triple H has a microphone]
Triple H: Rock that really is a heart felt speech, it�s just to bad it�s all lies.... These People don�t shape this industry.... I SHAPE THIS INDUSTRY!. Just a quick note to Hollywood, Hogan.... Hulkster old pal, I played you and read you like a book. While you were off looking for me in the parking lot, I bought myself a couple of front row tickets, and the thing thats really gonna piss you off is that you cant get rid of me Im a paying customer...
Rock: YO... Big Shot, THE...... UNDISPUTED champ is speaking... do the people a favour, do hogan a favour and more importantly do me a damn favour.... SHUT THE HELL UP... Before I was interrupted once again...
Triple H: I aint finished yet Rocky, im glad you show me some respect, Im glad you realised our match was the hardest match you have ever competed in. But the fact of the matter is you�re a CHEAT!. You knew the only you could beat me was to CHEAT!. You hit a blatant low blow seen by all ever the god damn referee, and the match continued. Which by the way I will be sorting out Thursday night!. The fact is Rock you�re a fake champion, you�re a farce, Im the real champion and you know it... your on borrowed time my friend, and I bet you don�t even have the balls to give me a re-match!....
(( FRANCHISE THIS! �Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers�))
[ Shane Douglas walks out with the Intercontinental championship strapped around his waist, and the ECW Heavyweight title slung over his shoulder. The fans give Douglas a pretty bad reception]
Shane Douglas: When you two ladies have finished exchanging nail tips... the Franchise has something to let you both know. Rocky you beat Triple H for the title.... Triple H you feel you got screwed, what do I care? Let me run it down a little further... I won the Royal Rumble... My ticker is booked for Wrestlemania... the fact of the matter is It doesn�t matter which one of you headlines against me at Wrestlemania, they outcome will be the same. Just like the Rumble was last week.... Wrestlemania XIX will be....... FRANCHISED.
Rock Well if it comes down to that.... TWIPLE AITCH... SHAME DOUGLAS.......... JUST BRING IT...
JR: Oh here we go, Douglas is taking his titles off he�s making for the ring, Rock is getting ready he�s taken his shades off. Triple H is taking his suit jacket off, he�s climbed over the security barrier. Triple H slides in... sucker punch to the Rock.. Rock sent to the ropes. Comes off CLOTHESLINE... Shane Douglas in cheap shot to the back of the people�s champ. Triple H now up.. sends Douglas into the ropes. Boot to the gut... someone else is in the ring who the hell is that.... Hunter preparing for the Pedigree. Clothesline to Triple H but this mystery person.. Who is it can make out who is their face is covered by that hoody.... IT�S THE UNDERTAKER KING!. Undertaker tosses Triple H to the outside. He upper cuts Douglas and sends him flying, that�s for old times I guess. Undertaker telling the Rock he�s all his. Undertaker picks up Triple H and tosses him over the security barrier. The Rock is stalking Shane Douglas... he�s waiting...
King: Don�t turn around Franchise.....
JR: He�s hocked up.... ROCK BOTTOM to the FRANCHISE!. The Undertaker and Triple H are brawling in the aisle�s now. The Rock has picked up his undisputed championship, and trash talking to Douglas. The Rock now leaving Douglas in the middle of the ring.
King: Look JR it�s Hogan...
[The Undertaker has now bloodied Triple H, He holds him so he can see the Hulkatron]
Hollywood: Hey Hunter.... meet the Deadman, but you know each other too well. You could write an encyclopaedia on your history. You wanna know why I released the Undertaker�s suspension? It was to take care of you Hunter!
JR: The Hulkster had it all planned!
Hollywood: I knew you would get in the arena somehow, I just had the Undertaker where I needed him. So to answer your question Helmsley NO... RAW DOESNT NEED TRIPLE H.... and I SURE AS HELL DON�T NEED HHH!.
[The transmission ends, Undertaker stands Hunter up in the aisle.. walks away... then delivers this huge boot to the face. The sound of Triple H�s skull hitting the floor echo�s the people around them cringe at the thud. We then go to a commercial advertising No Way Out!]
Match 3
Handicap Match
Ordered by Raw Commissioner Ric Flair
Sabu Vs Booker T and Goldust
JR : Up Next is a match that was made by Ric Flair, our returning WWE Raw Commissioner, a Handicap Match pitting Revolution member Sabu against two men Goldust and the returning Booker T. This match will be hard for Sabu however it's true that Booker T and Goldust have never tagged together in WWE Sadis.....
[Camera's go backstage where we see Goldust but he is ambushed by Leviathan and Sabu! Goldust getting double teamed here, It's a disgrace, Leviathan now POWERBOMB on the concrete on Goldust as now Sabu is holding off the referee's as Leviathan grabs any weapon that is handy which just happens to be a machete! no not really a garbage can and now Leviathan cracks the can across Goldust's skull and we see a trickle of blood running down the gold paint on his face! I can't believe this! Booker T now on the scene but it looks like Leviathan and Sabu are scarpering, they've done the damage!]
King : That right there was a stroke of genius, Sabu no longer has a handicap match, it's one on one with Booker T! Goldust isn't going to be able to fight!
((( MEANING OF LIFE!! )))
JR : Here comes Sabu ready for the match along with Leviathan! This isn't on!
King : Haha it's now a Handicap Match again!
JR : But it's just not right!
((( CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKA?! )))
King : Here comes Booker T running down the aisle and straight into the ring with Sabu and takes him down with a Harlem Side Kick! Booker now mounts Sabu and starts hammering away at his face trying to bust him open but now in slides Leviathan and pulls Booker off by the legs, Booker gets up and swings at Leviathan who ducks and he pushes him away back at Sabu who executes a sloppy roll up 1........2......Booker gets out, but now Leviathan coming over and telling Sabu to lock up into a Double Suplex and now they have Booker and can they get it? YES Double Suplex on Booker, the referee now is trying to get Leviathan out of the ring but he wont go....
JR : Here comes Chris Benoit! I wonder why he's out here?
King : JR It's quite obvious he's been sent out here by Ric Flair to get some order and to attack Revolution, the same faction that Ric Flair despises intensely! He hates Revolution with a passion! Benoit into the ring and takes down Leviathan from behind into the Crippler Crossface!!! Crossface on Leviathan! as now Sabu quickly with the break, Benoit now face to face with Sabu, Sabu goes to attack Benoit but he doesn't get far as Chris Benoit now dodges out of the way and gets behind Sabu and RELEASE GERMAN SUPLEX!!! Benoit now leaves the ring and pulls out Leviathan out of the ring, the referee looks about to call this match off for a No Contest through a Double Disqualification...but Chris Benoit is persuading him not too! He's saying that the two that are fighting the official match are both in the ring and the referee agree's you can't do that! If you did that in football it would be a straight FA inquiry! He'd be in the Nationwide for the rest of his years! Benoit now works on Leviathan outside as now Booker in the ring gets up and so does Sabu, Sabu gets a kick in the gut for his troubles and SCISSORS KICK!!! Booker T now going for the cover? No he isn't he's got him surely! What an idiot!
JR : I think It's time though King, Time for a SPIN-A-ROONY!! Booker now doing something that I try all the time on my porch but It never looks as good as that I dont think as now Booker goes up top, what's he looking for here? HOUSTON HANGOVER he connects! 1...........2...........3 Booker T wins this match as now he stands up and pulls Sabu up and whats he doing? He's tossed him over the top rope as now Benoit comes into the ring and grabs Booker's arm and holds it high! Great show of respect between these two. The newcomers making an impact here on RAW and it's a breath of fresh air to the Raw Brand, I'm Personally Loving It!
Winner : Booker T
[We go backstage and we see Kurt Angle walking around, he stops at a table with full of tea�s and coffee�s he takes a coffe. He then stops, and looks rather shocked. Sabu and Leviathan walk infront of the camera, Kurt takes a few steps back]
Sabu: Your quitting the team huh Kurt... times are hard, so the Olympic good ball is walking away from the problem...
Kurt: Now guys it aint like that... if you could just...
[Leviathan pounces on Kurt Sabu then joins in, Kurt is then saved by two men from behind with a pair of steel chairs. These men are wearing hoody�s and they don�t turn around to show their face to the camera. The leave Sabu and leviathan in a pool of their own blood. Angle screams WHOO and walks away with these two men]
King: What the hell just happened there?
JR: Im not sure but Sabu and Leviathan are in one hell of a state, those two guys were relentless!

(( FRANCHISE THIS! �Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers�))
[Shane Douglas walks out with one of his own promotional T-shirts, on the front in a dim yellow is the super �F� logo, on the fore ground of the image reads �Franchised; European title, Hardcore title, Intercontinental title, ECW title.....

He�s talking to the referee, what�s he up to?. Eddie Guerrero now stomping on the leg of Storm, he�s no down of the apron and bending that leg downwards over the rope.
King: Look at the team work between Douglas and Guerrero shear perfection

Douglas and Storm are up they both thought of the same thing, sent each other into the ring... thought the same thin again.. Double clothesline, both men are down in the middle of the ring. Maybe these two were separated at birth of something, going for the same moves twice. Then again looking at them, no it aint a possibility HE HE. Both men need to make a tag to their respective partners. But Douglas is on his back staring into space, Storm is laying on his front not moving. Nick Patrick starts to count both men out. Angle and Guerrero are trying to get their partners to get up... Douglas has started to crawl over to Latino Heat. Storm has hardly moved. Patrick is on a count of 6, Douglas makes the tag...

King: GERMANS!... Angle hits him with the first, he�s still got the hold locked in... going for a second... Guerreor pull Patrick infront of him... LOW BLOW Guerrero just hits Kurt�s private gold medals if you catch my drift. The second goon as you�ve labelled them is on their way over to the time keepers desk... he just pushed the time keeper off his chair. The chair is folded and in hand, The first goon is on the apron having a conversation with the referee, about the weather no doubt

They�ve taken the safety padding off the top of the security barrier and bouncing Shane Douglas� head off of it! A game for all the family HA HA
JR: This all wrong, Kurt runs his mouth about Integrity, where�s the integrity in this. The two goons are taking their hoody�s off, who the hell are they? They are both wearing simular attire to Kurt Angle, sporting red white and blue. They�ve rolled Shane Douglas into the ring, they�re now looking for more weapons under the ring. Kurt is celebrating his own, running his mouth to both Guerrero and Douglas both layed out in the ring. Lance Storm is making a wise decision by leaving ringside I think, those goons are following him. There�s one either side of him, Storm has no choice but to fight,, he takes one of the down, soon after the other one is on him like a dog. A beat down on Lance Storm has started on the outside, they now roll him into the ring aswell. Kurt Angle sits in the corner and watches these two take apart for Raw�s rising stars!.
King: What the hell are these two youngster�s doing here... They�ve got Eddie Guerrero hang up on the ropes, His throat is resting on the top rope, and one of the goons are holding his legs under his arm pits... Off the ropes... spring board up and over Goon one... goon two lands on the back of Guerrero. Goon one and Goon two sish this is hard to call, give us their god dam names!. Goon 2 applying a very impressive submission hold to Lance Storm, Kurt is getting a microphone what words of wisdom will he have?
Kurt: Earlier tonight, I left the Revolution because they were washed up bar myself of course, they had no future. They saw that i was the only thing keeping them together actually getting that group any recognition, once i told them I was out they tried to take me out.

Raw staff thoughts....
Descent tunrout, TV rating could have been imporved if one or two people didnt constantly let the side down. Like to say well done to Chris Benoit for a cracking first rp, and also Booker, hopefully these two will continue to improve. Goes without saying well done to the usual suspects such as Douglas Angle, Guerrero and Storm. Card will be put up tommorrow night so u have a good amount of time to rp, not a rush job like this week. Thanks to Chris and Kev for helping with some ofthe matches
