[Raw comes on the air for the 26th week, Across the Nation plays the Raw video package shows various superstars including the newly talent Batista, and the regular stars such as Team Angle, Kane and many others. The scene changes to an aerial shot of the ramp way, it sweeps from left to right as a huge display of pyrotechnics shoot off to kick the show off. The camera then zooms into Jerry Lawler and Jim Ross sat to the right of the ramp way. The footage then changes from the crane camera to a camera infront of Ross and the King]
King: Welcome to Raw, the road to Wresltemania is winding but we are almost there JR, the biggest event in our calendar, the Grand Daddy of them all. I�m a little worried about things JR, I mean Smackdown have already starting booking matches and Flair and Hogan haven�t let slip of anything yet, I mean you cant rush a Wrestlemania card!.
JR: I�m sure the Raw owner and the Commish have everything under control, I don�t think Hogan is going to mess up Wrestlemania, hell he was one of the guys who started the legacy! Just concentrate on tonight, we have some huge matches, we will see DDP return to Raw after a couple of weeks break, he�ll be looking to get back on track, but that aint gonna be an easy task when he is facing Batista!
King: Evolution will pass DDP by, I can guarantee it!, that�s the first match tonight, also for the first time as a Raw superstar we will see the Un-American member Edge in the ring tonight. Edge squares off against Shelton Benjamin, you just know Benjamin will be looking for huge payback after that chair shot from Edge last week! We gotta backstage im being told, how dare they when Im speaking at least wait till JR open�s his gob, HA HA.
[The scene goes backstage and we see Team Angle walking through a corridor, Angle is in the center, he is wearing a tag team belt with a Team Angle hoody on. To the left of him is Shelton Benjamin he is also wearing a Team Angle hoody, to the right of angle is the second half of the tag champs Charlie Haas. All three men walk down the isle, Charlie Haas bumps into someone, pushing them aside, the person screams Jerk at him. Haas isn�t phased and continues walking in the �V� formation. Jonathan Coachman is seen on the Raw interview set]
The Coach: Team Angle� guys, if you could spare a few moments of your time�
Kurt: Coach it would be your pleasure to interview us�
The Coach: Don�t you mean our pleasure�
Kurt: Why would we have pleasure from giving you an interview, my god Coach you have a high opinion of yourself! Get on with it.. sish!
The Coach: Tonight could be a very influential night for Wrestlemania on your parts guys, obviously all three of you would like to be a part of the Show case of the immortals, and I�m guessing with the fact that you and Charlie have not defended the titles yet�so I would guess you�ll be defending them at Mania� so..
Kurt: Hold up just a second are you saying we are bad champions? Huh? Coach are you trying to say the me and Charlie are paper champions�.?
The Coach: No I didn�t say that at all�
Kurt: The fact of the matter is Coach, me and Charlie are above all competition on this brand. We will defend this titles anytime, Hogan just needs to get some descent teams together so we can actually defend them. You better watch your mouth young man�
The Coach: What I was getting to Kurt is that it will be very important for the team if you win your matches tonight� Shelton you face Edge, how do you feel about this�
Shelton: Edge got a cheap shot on me last week, Il admit it hurt like hell, but if he can only perform with illegal weapons then he�s on the wrong show he needs to head back over to Smackdown!. Edge you may be quite a celebrated athlete in this company, but the reason for your success is the fact that you haven�t had a true challenge yet, that�s where I step in. Two Time NCAA champion, I�m an All American Edge, I�m an expert in the art of wrestling. I won�t be executing moves that get a cheer or pop from the fools in the crowd�. No. Ill be proving to you why I am an All American, why I am an expert at wrestler. Edge best bring an apple because tonight I�m taking you to school!
The Coach: The other match concerning you guys, is the main event, for the first time ever on the Raw brand we will see a �Throw In the Towel� match. Charlie Haas in your corner will be your team captain Kurt, you will face Kane and his corner will be Chris Benoit. Quite a strange match you�ve been put in tonight Charlie�
Charlie: Well any kind of stipulation Hogan seems fit to add I�m a disadvantage to, you see like Shelton and Kurt, I actually wrestle I don�t entertain like our opponents tonight. Kane may be used to this kind of situations, but I�m not, that doesn�t mean im not going to get the job done tonight. We Kurt Angle as my manager tonight cheer me on, giving me advice through out the match I can�t fail�
The Coach: Kurt I would like to finish with you, I would first like to ask you why we have not seen you in action in recent weeks, also and do you have any plan for this stipulation tonight, seeing as how you will be the won holding Charlie Haas� towel..
Kurt: You wanna know why Coach? Well Did I ever tell you that I won my gold medals with a broken neck? Well in recent weeks that�s been nagging, and I have been un-able to compete, but don�t you worry I will be fighting fit in time for Wrestlemania! As for a plan, of course I have a plan, Team Angle is a professional team, not some team slung together like the devised Revolution. Charlie is going to have to battle hard to beat a 7 foot man, but it can be done, I have done it many times before and have pointed out the red freak�s weaknesses. The plan� dominate� dominate�. Dominate�.
[Kurt pushes the camera man out of his face, Shelton and Charlie follow him down a hall way. Coach helps the camera man get to his feet. We then see a commercial for Wresltemania]
Match One
Batista vs DDP
JR : We are back from that commercial advertising Wrestlemania XIX and Batista is currently in the ring awaiting his opponent, the returning Diamond Dallas Page from a reasonably serious shoulder injury caused about a month ago by Chris Benoit.
((( BAAAAAAANG!!! YO ITS ME ITS ME DDP!!!! )))
King : Here he comes, and we are glad to see him back, that injury could have retired the big man but he's ready to go again, but what a mamooth task he has on his return, facing up against Batista a man that could have become Hardcore Champion last week in an intense Hardcore Match. DDP now dos his pose on the ramp and the pyrotechnics explode behind him, he gets to the ring and does his Diamond Cutter pose again but he is attacked by the waiting Batista to the crowds disgust!
JR : Batista now throws DDP in the corner and gives him a few shoulder barges in the stomach but now DDP pushes him away and comes back with a clothesline, but it doesn't knock Batista down, so DDP tries again this time with the discus action and it connects and knocks down the big man! DDP now pulls him up and sends him at the ropes, he comes back and gets a huge right hand old school style followed by a Spinning DDT!! DDP into a cover 1..........2............Batista just kicks out, DDP is all over Batista here as he gets his legs now and spins him around dragging his back against the ground in the airplane spin, giving Batista a big carpet burn, that's gonna give some people some bad ideas of the fella, but now in any event DDP pulls up Batista again and kicks him in the gut, could be Powerbomb time.......YES!!!! SPIRAL BOMB on Batista!! That shoulder is sure holding out here!!! Batista is down, DDP covers 1................2....................What? DDP pulls Batista's head up!!! DDP has something on his mind, he grabs Batista to a vertical base.........only to be dropped again.......DIAMOND CUTTER!!!! Hook of the leg 1.............2............3!! It's all gravy for DDP tonight!
Winner : DDP
[A video package is played on the titan tron we see a metal door a few metres away, the camera man filming this shot is walking on a suspended bridge. The camera man walks closer to the door, then all of a sudden we see an arm try to grab the camera man. The arm then disappears, and someone looks through the hole, we see one eye a nose and part of a mouth, the person behind the door then starts t laugh manically. The footage ends and on the screen reads �Nathan Jones� coming to the Raw brand�NEXT WEEK�]
King: What�. Who� the hell was that?
JR: Nathan Jones� an ex- Australian convict, Im not sure whether this is a good signing on the part of Hollywood. He asked me what I thought about the situation a few weeks back, I didn�t think he would end up here! Speaking of Hogan, were going backstage to him now
[Backstage were inside Hollywood Hulk Hogan�s office, with him is The Commissioner Ric Flair, and Naith�s body guard Chris Benoit. Benoit is sitting down on a leather suite, while Hogan and Flair are talking amongst themselves, scribbling things down. From what we can gather they are trying to arrange Wrestlemania.]
Hogan: Look these dudes haven�t defended the titles yet, hell Haas shouldn�t even be wearing the gold as far as I�m concerned! Bottom line they should defend the tag titles!
Naitch: Well what else do you have planned, we must be able to agree on something�
[Benoit smirks at the pair arguing, just then there�s a knock on the door, Benoit instinctively gets up. Hogan tells them to come in, insteps the 7 foot monster� Kane. Chris Benoit steps back and allows Kane to come in]
Hogan: What can we do for you Kane,
Kane: I just wanted to speak to Chris if that�s alright with you guys�.. Chris No Way Out we both lost to Team Angle, personally I don�t like loosing infact it P*SSES ME OFF. So how about we kick Team Angle�s ass tonight!. If� and it�s a big If, It does look as if I�m loosing in the match don�t throw in the towel. I will not stop until I am completely drained, they aint getting another win over me� not tonight!... you get me
Chris Benoit: I can respect that Kane, you take care of pretty boy Charlie Haas, Ill take care of bald boy Kurt Angle! Deal?
[Benoit offers his hand, Kane shakes then leaves the ring. Meanwhile Hogan and Naitch are still trying to decide matches for Wrestlemania]
Match 2
Edge Vs Shelton Benjamin
[Team Angle - Who Sucks Now?]
Ross: Well king, here comes Shelton Benjamin, hot off a great wion against Chris Benoit last week here on RAW. Tonight he takes on the Un-American, Edge.
[UnAmerican's theme]
And here comes Edge now, he's gonna be looking to pick up a win here, and Shelton Benjamin is the man in his path.
**Edge stops at the bottom of the ramp, and stares at Benjaming for a few moments. Benjamin is beckoning him to get in the ring, and Edge accepts his offer. He walks up the steps, and slowly steps between the ropes. He stands in his corner, and does a few stretches, waiting for the referee to start the match. The bell is rung, and we are underway. Both men circle each other for a few moments, and then both step in towards each other. They rear back, and lock into the collar and elbow tie-up. Benjamin gets the upper hand by a littl, and forces Edge down onto one knee. Edge plants his feet, but is forced down to one knee again by Benjamin. Benjamin starts to force Edge towards the corner behing him, and Edge hits the buckle with his back, forcefully. Benjamin keeps pushing on Edges shoulders, his back being wrenched over the buckle. The referee steps in hee, and forces Benjamin to get off. He backs off raising his hands, and Edge flies out of the corner, hitting a clothesline. Benjamin hits the mat hard, but is up straight away, to be met by a second clothesline, then a third. Once Benjamin gets up again, he is whipped to the opposite corner from where they originally were, and is followed in by Edge. Benjamin must have predicted this would happen, as he plants his hands on the buckle when he gets there, and pushes off, jumping over Edge's back, as Edge runs front first into the buckle. Benjamin grabs a rear waistlock on Edge, and lifts him up before turning and falling to the mat, sending Edge front first down. Benjamin moves quickly around Edge, not giving him any space to move, as he locks in a front facelock. He keeps Edge restricted, as hebeats a few forearms into Edge's back, before dropping him with a sharp DDT. But instead of releasing Edge once they hit the mat, Benjamin keeps his facelock on, and then wraps his legs around Edge's midsection in a body grapevine. This is not a good position for Edge to be in, for much the same way as he managed to do against Benoit last week, Benjamin is trying to restrict any movement or attack that Edge may be able to muster. Benjamin holds this lock in for about a minute, and then releases the body, keeping the facelock still. With this, he forces Edge to his feet, before lifting Edge's adjacent arm, and putting it over his own houlder. Benjamin lifts Edge up in a vertical suplex, and hold him. For around three seconds, Edge is suspended in mid-air, for all to see. Benjamin then slowly walks forward, while slowly falling backwards. Suddenly, Edge drops, violently to the mat, with a loud thump. The effect Benjamin's movement had on the move is evident, as Edge sits straight up volunteraly, clutching his lower back while wincing in pain. As he hit the ground, Edge's spine was jerked upwards by the almost circular motion which was being formed. Benjamin shows wisdom above hsi years, as he gets back up, and goes straight back to Edge, who is still sitting up. Benjaming walks up slowly from behind him, and quickly somersaults forward, grabbing Edge aroudn the neck before releasing and rolling along the ground as he lands. A modified neckbreaker, which has an even greater effect on Edge's lower back, as Benjaming almost folded Edge in half. Edge is in great pain, and it looks like itcould be a very short match if Benjamin carries on in this fashion.
He then pickss Edge off the ground, and takes him towards the corner of the ring. Benjamin lifts Edge from behind, and sits him on the turnbuckle, facing the crowd. Benjamin climbs to the second rope, and lifts Edge's arm over his shoulder. Benjaming then steps up the final buckle, and lifts Edge in the air, going for a big top rope back drop. But Edge, with what could have been everything he had left, manages to turn in mid air, and falls to ground on top of Benjamin, in what is almost a cross body block. Edge bounces off Benjamin's body as he falls to the ground, and rolls across the ring. But Benjamin looks in a lot of pain. In one single moment, all of Benjamin's hard work during the match has been equalised, as one mistake from him was taken advantage of by the Un-American. They both stay down for a while, but eventually both start to rise to their feet at more or less the same time, at more or less the same speed. Benjamin is up marginally faster, and sees Edge in a vulnerabl position, being that he is facing away from him. Ben jamin walks towards Edge, and as he turns, Benjamin swing round and goes for a massive roundhouse kick. Edge ducks it, however, and as Benjamin turns to face him again, he swings a wild right arm. Edge ducks this as well, and puts his arm across Benjamin's chest. He pushes up with both legs, and takes Benjamin up with him, before bringing Benjamin down with his own momentum, landing Benjamin face first into the mat, with an excellently delivered Downward Spiral! Both men are down, however, as Edge still struggles to recover from Benjamin's early assault. Another rest period ensues, before they both rise to their feet at the same time. They approach each other cautiously, with Edge guarding his face and midsection with his arms. Benjamin approaches, and as he gets close, swings his right arm back, and Edge flicnhes away, before being taken down by a hard, vicious kick to the thigh of Edge's left leg. The force swings Edge backwards, and he ends up landing on the back of his head, before resting in a crumpled heap on the mat. Benjamin approaches Edge while he is down, and hits a hard kick into the side of his head! He backs off a little, before approaching once again, before this time dropping a hard knee on the head of Edge! Benjamin now mounts Edge, and once again goes for his head, thsi time raining down numerous closed fists into the forehead of the young man. It seems that for the second week in a row, Benjamin is going for the knockout victory. Benjamin continues to rain down shots on Edge's head, and, even with Edge being a heel as much as Benjamin is, the crowd are now starting to boo Benjamin, who is showing an extremely sadistic and violent side to his extremely talented technical abilities. Benjamin picks Edge up, and sends him to the far corner with a whip. Edge finishes with his back against the buckle, and he is sprawled against the ropes. He looks as if he is on his last legs, and Benjamin senses this, as he approaches Edge slowly. As he gets near, he spinms once, and then, on the second turn, unleashes a fierce kick towwards Edge's temple. But Edge ducks! He hits a forearm into the back of Benjamin's head, and Benjamin stumbles across the ring. Edge sizes him up from across the ring, and he suddenly flies out of the corner towards Benjamin, and BAM! He nails him with an awesome Spear! He covers, and the referee counts...
1......
2......
KICKOUT!
The crowd gasp, as no-one can quite undertand how Benjamin managed to kick out from that move. He stays down, however, and Edge turns Benjamin over so he is facing the ground, before grabbing one of his feet, and then turning. It looks like he's going to go for the Maple Leaf, and he sits back, and sinches it in! The pain is extremely evident on his face, and it looks like there is nowhere to go, as he is in the center of the ring. Benjamin pushes up with his arms, so there is space between his chest and the mat, and suddenly, in a quick, fluid motion, he rolls underneath Edge, who still has hold of his foot. Benjamin manages to get up to one foot, and jumps up, spinning backwards, launching another kick towards Edge, this time a reverse Enziguri! But Edge, once again, ducks out of the kick. Benjamin lands on his foot though, and pushes down on Edge's hand, performing a backflip onto his feet. Edge is pushed back by this, and as he recovers, is hit with a fierce, violent and nasty looking roundhouse kick to the side of Edge's head! Edge doesn't fall immediately, and instead slowly stumblews to his side, before collapsing on his side. The referee slides in between Benjamin and Edge, and checks him for signs of movement. When thre aren't any, the referee doesn't even bother to try for the three drops of his am, and instead calls for the bell, knowing there is no way he will be reacting for a few minutes.
THE WINNER, BY KNOCKOUT - SHELTON BENJAMIN
OOC: The knockout ending, in case there is any confusion, is not any implication that it was a walkover for benjamin, but simply that i think it is a cool way to end Benjamin's matches. Sorry in advance if any confusion arises from this.
[Backstage wee see D�lo Brown with Terri Runnels on Raw interview set]
Terri: I�m here with D�lo Brown, your up against quite a task tonight D�lo, your facing the current World Hardcore champion Shane Douglas, this man will go on later this month to main event in Wrestlemania. But the most poignant issue is the fact that when Douglas faces you tonight, he said he will envision The Rock, he said he will not be facing D�lo Brown tonight, he will be facing the Rock�
D�lo Brown: Terri I�m not too sure about Dougla�s mental state, but I think it�s about time for another CAT scan for the Franchise. Hell I don�t even look like the Rock, I�m black� WHOOPEEE!. Shane you may see the Rock tonight, but I�m going to see you for what you really are� A PUNK!. Yeah Im the under dog� no one expects me to win, but you know what some people always back the under dog!.
Terri: the fact that the Rock is guest referee in your match must be a boost for you, after all he�s not going to be on the side of the Franchise?
D�lo: Look I can understand the Rock is going to try and count fast for me, and slow for Shane, but Rock I gotta level with ya� everyone knows your DOWN WITH THA BROWN, but I would rather win without your help, I wanna try and beat Douglas on my own. Douglas it�s me and you up next baby! Lets rumble!!... I�ll catch you later sweet thing�
[Terri giggles as we see D�lo Brown leave the scene]
Match Three
Singles Match - Special Guest Referee THE ROCK
Shane Douglas vs D-Lo Brown
JR : Up next is a match that was announced at the end of last week's RAW show, Shane Douglas taking on D-Lo Brown, with the special guest referee for the contest being The Rock! It's an unusual match and the first special referee match we've had in quite a while in WWE Sadistic...
King : That's right JR! But you know as much as I love The Rock I think that this match is a little unfair to Shane Douglas because at Wrestlemania in 13 days time Shane Douglas challenges The Rock for his Undisputed Championship. And you gotta know that The Rock is gonna be starting the mind games going into that event and being a special referee gives him a perfect oppertunity! But nonetheless I think it will be a great match.
((( DOWN WITH THE BROWN )))
JR : Now here comes the man accusing me of being racist and saying that he wants to rid the world of racism, I agree with that but there aint no racism in JR, nor in anyone in the WWE for that matter, he seems to think that everyone is plotting against him because he's black, but it's just because he's an asshole!
King : Woah! Easy JR!!
((( DOPE - FRANCHISE THIS! )))
JR : And this guy isn't exactly my favourite person in the world either, here comes Shane Douglas to the ring accompanied by Francine. You know that this man has achieved almost everything in his short stay in the WWE, but at Wrestlemania can he achieve his ultimate goal, the WWE Undisputed Championship when he faces The Great One!
King : I think that he can do it, and you talk about mind games JR, aren't you forgetting how Smackdown went off air last week? Footage of The Rock's car spray painted all over, with all fingers pointed to the Franchise!
JR : I don't watch Smackdown....Smackdown Su.....
((( IF YA SMELLLLLLLLLLL Ba da dun WHAT THE ROCK dun dun IZ COOKIN!!! )))
JR : Here comes the Incomporable and as of late Unstoppable Brahma Bull!! Shane Douglas in the ring now as Francine stands on the outside with the Hardcore Title and Douglas starts the match during Rock's entrance with a sucker punch to D-Lo!!! The Rock now down to ringside as the fans are still going crazy, The Rock is wearing his two stripe bottoms and a sleeveless shirt that says The People's Ref on the back and a picture of a Brahma Bull on the front in referee colours, obviously specially made for this night. The Rock now walks up the steel steps and walks across the apron taking no notice of Douglas now getting shots in on D-Lo and he gets to the turnbuckle and throws his arm in the air. Douglas then stops beating down D-Lo and stares at The Rock who is mouthing off at Douglas here, I can't repeat any of it though, it's extremely heated! The Rock now down off the turnbuckle though and he's nose to nose with Douglas as he signals to the timekeeper to ring the bell....and were underway, but now the nose to nose is ended as D-Lo attempts the backslide 1..2..Shane Douglas kicks out! That was a blatant fast count though! But who cares, I dont think The Rock does after what happened to his limousine last week, I was only joking King, I do watch Smackethdown and I think The Rock is fixing to layeth the smackethdown on Shane Douglas here tonight!
King : He's gonna fix something alright, fix the result of this match with counts like that! as now D-Lo with the close fall and pulling up Douglas and into the Suplex! D-Lo now rolls over into the cover again, but no hook of the leg 1.............................Douglas kicks out, but that there was a very slow count! What's going on? The Rock doing a slow count for D-Lo there, I don't think The Rock even cares. D-Lo now gives The Rock a mean stare, but The Rock mocking D-Lo and shaking his head like D-Lo and now doing a mock Nation of Domination pose to D-Lo haha!! D-Lo now is irate, he walks after The Rock but Douglas now rolls up D-Lo 1.2.......................................................D-Lo kicks out on the count of 2! That count started real fast and then Rock refused to count the three, doing the last count in slow motion. Shane Douglas now getting extremely angry he stands up and gets in The Rock's face. The Rock is being backed into the corner by Shane Douglas here, is The Rock intimidated by Douglas? Some of the fans are cheering Douglas though, but the majority, the vast majority cheering The Rock. Rock now just with a small raise of the eyebrow and now D-Lo is up and he spins around Douglas and Irish whip into the opposite corner, D-Lo about to run into the corner with a head of steam on The Franchise but The Rock spins him around and punch punch punch punch SPIT but Douglas runs out of the corner and pushed D-Lo Brown into The Rock and both men fall down on the canvas in a heap!!! That wasn't popular with this crowd but Douglas looking around and responding with a four letter word which is an annogram of FCUK and ends in YOU. Shane Douglas being applauded by Francine who has just tossed in the ring the World Hardcore Title! Douglas now pulls up D-Lo and swings the Hardcore strap at him but D-Lo with the block and into the FADE TO BLACK!!! What an excellent counter by D-Lo Brown!! D-Lo now has the cover as The Rock scrambles into position 1..............2..................Shane Douglas counters the pinfall with a teddy bear roll and The Rock now restarts the count this time with D-Lo's shoulders down 1.............2.............SPIT........PUNCH!!! HAHA!!! The Rock breaks his own count using a spit punch on Douglas!!!
JR : The Rock now getting a huge ovation as he stands up and watches D-Lo and Douglas scramble on the canvas. Francine now gets on the apron, what the hell is she planning? The Rock see's her and he's hooking up, is he gonna suplex Francine into the ring? The Rock suplex's her in with a vertical suplex but Douglas is up and he catches her before she hits the mat, The Rock now turns around and runs to to clothesline him down while he is holding Francine but D-Lo Brown saves the day with a flying jumping Enziguri followed by the Shaky Head Leg Drop on The Rock!!! D-Lo now telling Rock to recognise who the hell he is!!! As The Franchise now has got Francine out of the ring he grabs D-Lo Brown and BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX!!!! That'll have D-Lo!!! The Rock though is down after D-Lo's knockdown, 1......2.....3......4.......5 D-Lo's lights are out come on!!! Douglas now is breaking the pin and going to The Rock, he's trying to pull him up and get him to come to his senses, and Rock is coming around, but now ROCK breaks Douglas's grip on him and ROCK BOTTOM!!!! ROCK BOTTOM!!! Douglas was only trying to get The Rock to come around I think, genuinly, but The Rock planted him and now, D-Lo is groggily up, and he goes up top, he's gonna hit it LO DOWN BOOM CONNECTS!!! D-Lo into the pin on Shane Douglas, The Rock counts 1...............2..................The Rock whats he doing, he's hurt his back doing the count? He's lying on his back now in agony, D-Lo looks up, he looks concerned, The Rock screamed in pain, he may have torn some sort of ligament in his back or slipped a disc, trapped a nerve or anything........OH NO LOOK!!! THE ROCK NIPS UP!!! He was just acting!! D-Lo knows this has cost him the match maybe and he runs at The Rock but he is planted with a PINEBUSTER!!! Spine on da Pine! Rock now right into position to hit the most electrifying move in sports entertainment PEOPLE'S ELB.....No Wait The Rock stopping and shaking his head in a funny way and now hitting the D-LO LEG DROP!!! The Rock is too much, Rock now see's Shane Douglas getting up and he pulls up D-Lo does The Rock and he pushes him to Douglas, Rock now looking like he's telling Shane Douglas to Impress The Rock, a strange situation here as now Douglas is going to impress him it looks, he lifts D-Lo up for the PITTSBURGH PLUNGE!!! Douglas drops him! and now The Rock standing in the corner applauding Douglas as now Shane Douglas stares a hole through The Rock before dropping into a cover and a hook of the leg 1................2....................3 That's it Shane Douglas won! And The Rock counted 3!!!
King : Yeah I wouldn't have predicted that! Shane Douglas now pulls up D-Lo and throws him over the top rope and to the floor as now he turns around and faces The Rock. The Rock now stepping back from Shane Douglas, maybe he's intimidated? But The Rock pulling off that Referee shirt and showing off his physique he's ready to go!! But is Shane Douglas ready to go one on one with The Great One? The Rock now leaving the ring through the ropes and standing on the apron, clapping Douglas, the timekeeper then comes around the ring and gives The Rock his undisputed title, The Rock's music now hits as he throws up his Undisputed Championship in the air, but some of the fans are displeased they wanted to see more of a confrontation here tonight, but it's no more than a teaser for Wrestlemania XIX!! The Rock now leaves backstage as Shane Douglas is also smiling, knowing that his time is almost upon him!
Winner : Shane Douglas
[The footage gets interrupted from ringside, it seems to be a security camera in Hulk Hogan�s office. The door swings open, but the door blocks who is in the doorway, we see Hulk Hogan shot up from his seat, there is no audio but we can see the Hogan is shouting at who ever is there. Hogan stands infront of the door, we can just about see him. He then walks out of shot then all off sudden we see him fall to floor, his fore head is bust open]
JR: Someone just took out the boss, get some help back there!
[JR, King and the rest of the worlds watch as the security camera transmission ends, the footage then goes to a camera man running to Hogan. When he gets there, there are referee�s trying to revive him . Paramedics arrive at the scene, a few of the wrestlers are trying to see what�s going on. Ric Flair and Chris Benoit arrives on scene by this time the paramedics have but Hogan on stretcher, and are about to take him to an ambulance]
Naicth: Hogan� who did this� tell me who did this to you..
[Hogan just starts mumbling as he is taken away by the paramedics, into shot walks the undertaker with a lead pipe]
Undertaker: What the hell happened?
Naicth: It was you� you son of a bitch!
Undertaker: Me what�. What happened to Hogan�
Naicth: Yeah like you don�t already know, I knew Hogan shouldn�t have released your suspension!. You take Hogan out then act as if nothing has happened
Undertaker: Hold up Flair, you better get your facts straight before you start accusing people� I aint done jack�
Naicth: Why the hell have you got that lead pipe then huh?
Undertaker: I was doing some stretching with it� is that a crime or something now..?
Naicth: Benoit get him out of here, Taker until further notice your suspended� effective immediately!.
[Benoit steps up to Undertaker, then a swarm of security surround the Undertaker.]
Undertaker: Alright Flair I�ll leave, but you better kiss my ass real good, when you find out I aint done anything!
[Benoit and the security make sure the Undertaker leaves the arena]
Main Event
Throw In The Towel Match
Kane with Chris Benoit Vs Charlie Haas with Kurt Angle
King: I can�t believe what just happened, what does this mean for Mania, what If Hogan is out of action?, and the Undertaker, Hogan brought him back in good faith then he goes and does this, Im lost for words!
JR; That�s a first, plus Im not too sure the Undertaker did attack Hogan, and who the hell set up the feed from the security camera, very sus if you ask me!. Now for the first time on Raw brand history a throw in the towel match, for those of you who have never seen one of these matches, here�s how it goes. Chris Benoit and Kurt angle will have a towel with their partners name on the towel. Kane and Charlie Haas will wrestle in the ring, the only way either competitor can win is by having the opponents manager throw in the towel. So for example if Kurt Angle throws in Charlie�s towel then Kane will win, and vice versa. There will be no pinfalls, no submissions, but the match must be kept in the ring. The competitors can get disqualified though. That�s basically it in a nut shell, so lets get on with it.
(( DURN NE NE NE NE NE� DA DA #What Ever Our Lady Peace# ))
[The Rabid wolverine makes his way out with Kane�s towel in his hand. Chris is wearing �Toothless Aggression� t-shirt, Chris makes his way down to ring, and stands at ringside, waiting for Kane]
King: Chris Benoit better keep his distance from Kurt, unless he wants to miss out on going to Mania. No loves loss between Angle and Benoit!
(( DURN NUR NUR NUR� #Slow Chemical � Finger Eleven# ))
