*Here comes the money* Shane walks down to the ring in a suit; he grabs a microphone and waits for the crowd to settle down, then he says, “Welcome to the new and improved Raw. I say new and improved because I think that it is great for people at home who turn on there television and see me instead of Eric Bischoff. And on that note, I just want to let all the Raw superstars know that if I hear any word of the old General Manager of Raw on my show from now onwards, that superstar will be dealt with personally by me and my wonderful family on the board of directorers.”
The crowd start to applaud the new workings of Shane McMahon.
King, “Does that mean that he is going to fire superstars already J.R?”
The crowd settle down again and Shane says, “Now that I have that off of my chest I am proud to announce the new beginning of XWE Raw. But that is not what we’re going to be named anymore. Seeing as though I have the power now I have decided to change the name of my show. I will let all of you people know the new name next week on the show as well as another change. But now, back to tonights show. I have put together five extraordinary matches tonight, and one of them is Destroyer versus an opponent picked by me for the United States Championship, which Destroyer only defended last Monday at Vengeance against the Undertaker who lost to certain circumstances. So tonight you will be seeing Destroyer take on…”
Destroyer’s music starts and he walks out clapping his hands. He holds the mic to his mouth and says, “Congratulations Shane, It is such an honour to have you as our General Manager and I will love to work under your control… NOT. Eric Bischoff was a better G.M than you will ever be, so why don’t you pack your stuff and get you filthy punk ass out of this arena.”
Shane stops Destroyer form talking, “Yeah, that’s right, you are under my control on this show and didn’t I just here me a couple of minutes ago when I said I never want to hear that man’s name again. The person you speak of is long gone thanks to the marvellous display put on last week by Jerry “The King” Lawler. And because of your rude and ignorant attitude towards me and my show, your opponent for tonight, in the main event, for the United States Championship, is……………Me.”
J.R, “Oh, he’s a fighting General Manager and we could have him as the new United States Champion. Destroyer is still getting over his match with Taker from Vengeance as well as these four men who had a great match at Vengeance this past Monday.”
