Eric Bischoff’s music hits and he walks out onto the stage, “Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, if you have come here to see Jeff Hardy tonight, you will be very disappointed. I had to give Jeff Hardy the night off because of his injuries sustained last week against the Undertaker. However, this show doesn’t need him anyway, we will continue the night as planned and hopefully get through it without the re-appearance of………”
“OH YEAH”, Matt Hardy’s music starts and he comes to face Bischoff on the stage; he snatches the microphone from Eric and says, “My brother is not injured. You’re a liar.” Matt turns to face the crowd, “Eric Bischoff threatened to sack Jeff tonight but the board of directorers stepped in the way of that. So, because Bischoff is such an uncaring human being, he told Jeff to stay at home tonight because he was not needed.” The crowd boos.
Bischoff, “Don’t push your luck Matt; you already know that you have been warned by the board of directorers about being a smart ass on my show. So I will make it that if you win your match tonight for the U.S title, which I highly doubt that you will, the championship belt will be stripped from you straight away. And don’t tell me that I can’t do it, because I can, and I will.”
Bischoff walks backstage with a smile on his face leaving Matt still out on the stage.
Shawn Michaels VS Batista
“The following contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing first, from San Antonio, Texas, he is the Heart Break Kid, Shawn Michaels…….. And his opponent, from Washington D.C, Batista.”
The same phrase that was heard last week sounds through the arena again as the bell rings and the match gets underway.
Shawn runs at Batista, but Batista runs out of the ring. Shawn grabs a hold of the rope and catapults himself out of the ring and onto Batista. The ref starts counting, 1.2, Shawn gets up and slides into the ring, he then slides back out and lifts Batista up and onto the announcers desk. Shawn gets down to the ground and lifts Batista onto his shoulders and powerbomb’s him onto the desk.
The referees count had gotten to eight when Shawn re-entered the ring and he started to count again. Shawn exits the ring once more and pulls Batista into the ring. He climbs to the top rope, and successfully delivers an elbow drop straight into the chest of Batista. He walks to the opposite corner of the ring and starts to stomp his foot on the mat. Batista slowly starts to get himself to his feet and Shawn runs at him. Shawn lifts his leg for the sweet chin music but Batista counters it and Shawn runs into the turnbuckle and gets his leg hung over it. Batista makes and effort of this and walks up behind Shawn and German Suplex’s him. Shawn is thrown to the mat and helpless at that moment. Batista lifts him up of the mat and kicks him in the groin area, then he picks Shawn up and spine buster’s him.
The crowd start to yell and scream. The old lady that Shawn set on Batista is running down to the ring. She climbs the stairs and enters the ring. Batista walks over to her and tries to get her out of the ring. The old lady tells Batista to turn around. Batista turns around and ducks. Shawn Michaels had come at Batista with a sweet chin music but had hit the old lady in the chin instead of the intended target of Batista. Shawn was sitting over the old lady seeing if she was alright. He gets up and walks straight into Batista’s arms. Batista lifts Shawn off the mat and sidewalk slams him. Batista covers Shawn, 1.2.3. Batista wins the match. Batista pulls the old lady over to Shawn and lays her on top of him. Destroyer’s music starts as he is running through the crowd trying to get to the ring as quickly as possible. Batista runs out of the ring and up to the entrance. Destroyer grabs a mic and says, “You bastard. I thought that you were a really nice guy until now. Our tag team is over. I can’t stand you any more.”
Backstage
Lita is walking along the hallway to the ring. Victoria is running back to her locker room. Lita stops Victoria and asks, “Hey, Vic, where are you going? We have our match now.”
Victoria says, “Do you think I’m stupid. I know what is going on. I’m just going back to my locker room to get my elbow pads. So if you do not mind, get out of my way.”
Lita says, “You don’t have to be so bitchy about it all. I was just asking a question…..” WHACK. Victoria had just slapped Lita right in the face. She starts punching Lita now. The referees come to break it up. Both women get separated and are told to go separate ways to get to the ring. Lita walks off one way and Victoria walks off to her locker room.
Lita VS Gail Kim VS Victoria (Women’s Championship)
Gail Kim walks out onto the stage and then walks over to the announcers table. She puts on the headphones and says, “J.R, King, I’m going to win this women’s title tonight and do you know why.”
J.R replies, “Because you’re going into this match with great confidence.”
Gail yells back, “No. Are you stupid or something. I am going to win the women’s title tonight because I am the best XWE Diva that is on Raw. Now if you don’t mind, I have a match to go and win.”
She gets up and walks the rest of the way down to the ring. Victoria’s music hits and she comes running out looking puffed from all of her running. Her hair fly’s all over her face as she dances her way to the ring. She walks up to Gail, who is standing helplessly in the ring, but the referee holds her back. There’s a bit of a pause, and then Lita’s music starts and all of her fans in the crowd get to their feet. Lita’s music is still playing, but there is no sign of her. All of a sudden, the crowd burst out and start yelling. Lita is in the ring staring at the back of Victoria’s head. The referee sees Lita and signals for the bell to ring. Victoria and Gail look at each other and then they both turn around at the same time. Lita kicks Victoria in the lower regions and then she does the same to Gail. She walks over to them both and double DDT’s them. Lita covers Gail, 1.2, Gail kicks out. Lita moves over to Victoria and covers her, 1.2, Victoria kicks out as well. Lita rolls Gail out of the ring. Victoria is on her feet staggering around the ring. Lita walks up to her and slaps her and says, “That’s what you get for messing with me.” She slaps her again then irish whips her into the turnbuckle. Lita moves over to Victoria and gets her up onto the second rope. Lita monkey flips Victoria then gets up and dives out of the ring landing on Gail, who had just gotten to her feet. Victoria gets up onto the tope rope and jumps towards Lita, who is standing over Gail. Lita slides into the ring and watches Victoria land on Gail.
J.R, “Lita is on fire tonight. She has the best chance at winning the title at the moment.”
King, “My pick is Gail Kim; she looked so hot when she came and sat right on this very bench, right next to me.”
Lita pulls Victoria back into the ring. She throws Victoria against the rope and then lifts her up and over her head. Lita turns around to try and pick Victoria back up, but she gets kicked in the face by Gail.
King, “I told you she would win.”
J.R, “King, she hasn’t won yet, just calm down.”
Lita rolls out of the ring in pain. Gail lifts Victoria up and they punch each other a few times. Gail irish whips Victoria into the ropes. Gail runs at Victoria and swings herself around Victoria’s head, but stops half way to submit Victoria with the head scissors lock. Victoria looks as if she is about to tap, but Lita runs back into the ring and breaks the submission up.
Gail gets to her feet first and turns around and sees Lita standing behind her. Lita slaps Gail then DDT’s her. She slides Gail over to Victoria and lays them side by side. Lita jumps to the top rope and does a moonsault to both of the divas on the mat. Lita covers Victoria, 1.2.3. “And your winner and the new women’s champion, LITA!!!!!”
King, “Gail was supposed to win. This can’t be happening.”
J.R, “It’s all right King. Lita is the champion, and if she’s happy then I am too. Don’t go away ladies and gentlemen, we still have a few more matches to go, but right now,” Nidia’s music starts, “It’s time to announce the winner of the hottest raw superstar competition voted by the public.”
Nidia walks out looking very pleased with herself. She makes her way down to the ring very slowly, waving at little kids and her fans. She finally gets into the ring and gets handed a microphone. She starts by saying, “Hello people. If you don’t already know me, I’m Nidia and I will be managing one of the following superstars just after this very short segment.” The screen shows the room where all of the entrants, except Jeff Hardy, are sitting waiting to here Nidia call out one of them. “Right, we’ll get straight to it then shall we. I am going to announce the third runners up in the competition…… They are Garrison Cade and Eugene each on no points. The second runners up are…… Randy Orton and Matt Hardy each on one point. The first runners up are…… Jeff Hardy and Shawn Michaels each on two points. And your winner of the hottest Raw superstar competition, with a total of four points…… TEST!!!” The crowd boo. Most people in the crowd start yelling out, “Randy should have won, Randy should have won.”
Test’s music hits and he walks out and down to the ring. He hugs Nidia and kisses her on the cheek. She hands him the microphone and he says, “Thanks baby, I knew I was going to win all along. It doesn’t matter who you are, if you go up against Test, you will always lose.”
Randy Orton comes up on the big screen. He has an angry look on his face and he says, “Test, I cannot believe you won. Out of all people you? I mean I didnt waht the hoe but you?”
Test replies, “Hey Randy, watch what you say, I might just gave to take care of you for talking about my girl”
Randy Orton VS Eugene
Randy Orton's music hits and out he comes with Ric Flair by his side. Randy Orton is looking all cocky thinking that going up against Eugene is going to be a walk in the park while behind him the nature boy Ric Flair is styling and profiling. Randy and Ric are in the ring waiting for Eugene to come out. Then it happens, out comes Eugene and half the crowd stands up. Some people have signs in the crowd saying, “Eugene for president,” as he make his way to the ring with his very own manager William Regal. Eugene gets in the ring and Ric Flair gets out. The referee signals for the bell and Eugene goes to shake Randy’s hand. Randy pauses… then shakes Eugene’s hand. Eugene turns around to tell William that he got to shake Randy’s hand but randy is still holding on to Eugene’s hand. Eugene turns back around and Randy does a huge clothesline to him. Eugene is now holding his throat while Randy has a huge smile on his face. The pretty boy is now posing to all the hot chicks in the crowd. Randy then goes for a cocky elbow drop but Eugene moves and gets up and starts laughing at Randy. Ric Flair doesn’t like what he sees and gets on the apron trying to get in the ring. The referee is sick of it and sends Flair back to his locker room. While the ref is making sure that Ric actually goes back to his locker room, Randy transfers a low blow on Eugene. Randy slowly gets back up and picks Eugene up and says, “You want to laugh at me?” Randy then does a standing drop kick and starts laughing at Eugene. Randy is now getting booed by the crowd. Randy then goes back over to Eugene and locks in a tight head lock. Eugene is trying to fight it but is slowly fading away. Randy stops and pins Eugene 1.2, 2 count. Randy is shocked and he gets on top of Eugene and starts punching him in the face. He then does a big DDT.
J.R, “What the hell, what’s Nidia doing out here? She has just blown a kiss to Randy.”
Randy is not taking his eye of Nidia. She gets on the apron but Randy pushes her off and walks back to Eugene, but Nidia gets back up on the apron and the ref is trying to deal with her. Eugene is now doing a aeroplane spin to Randy. Eugene then lets go and out comes Test. Randy is dizzy and stumbles all over the ring. In comes test and big boots Randy Orton. Test quickly gets out and Nidia gets of the apron. Eugene pins Randy 1.2.3.
J.R, “Oh my god, Eugene just beat the Randy Orton.” Eugene and William Regal are now celebrating Eugene’s victory as Randy is still lying motionless in the ring.
Backstage
We see Orton sitting on a crate, on the phone. "That horse looking bastard is going to pay" *Pause* "Did you see what happened? Did you see who he made me lose to?" He pauses again and we hear a female yelling on the other end. "What are you talking about?! I don't know what Nidia is doing" *Pause* "What does Torrie have to do with this?" Once again we hear the female yelling. "Monique calm down. Forget about what Torrie said. You know it isn’t true. She's just doing that to get to you" While Orton is still on the phone, Nidia walks up to him. "Sorry about what happened out there. Test didn't mean any harm" she says as she rubs her index finger along his jaw line. "I hope we can still be friends. If you need me I’ll be in my locker room". With that she walks off. Once again we hear Monique over the phone. But this time we hear her clear "Randy! Is that Nidia again?! Answer me!". “Uh baby I got to go. I have to go to the trainers I'll meet you at the room tonight"

Out comes the Japanese buzz saw, Tajiri looks ready for the match. He gets into the ring and the match starts. Below is now pumping himself up. Tajiri comes at Below and hits him from behind. He then gets Below in a weird looking STF hold. Below is looking weak at the moment. Tajiri is hissing and yelling tap out to Below but he just won’t give up. Tajiri lets go and gets back up. Below is slowly getting up. Tajiri waits and then does a hurracanranna pin 1.2, 2 count. Below kicked out and he is putting up quite a fight.

Destroyer VS Matt Hardy VS Goldberg VS Undertaker (U.S Championship)
“OH YEAH,” Matt Hardy’s music starts and he walks out onto the stage as pumped up as anyone could be. He runs down to the ring as he usually does. He jumps on the top rope and signals V1. Goldberg is the next to come out. He walks through the sparks and punches the air. He walks down to the ring while the crowd chant, “Goldberg, Goldberg, Goldberg.” “GONG,” The Undertaker walks out with Paul Bearer as people get chills up their spines. The last man to enter the ring is Destroyer. He walks out calm and casually and the fans scream.
All four men are finally in standing eye to eye in the ring. The referee signals for the bell to ring. The four men stared at each other for a while before Matt Hardy made the first move. Matt runs at the Undertaker and punches him time and time again in the head. Destroyer and Goldberg go at each other now. Goldberg irish whips Destroyer into the turnbuckle, then runs at him. Destroyer lifts his leg up and kicks Goldberg in the head. Matt is getting the upper hand on Taker at the moment as he is throwing him against the rope and lifts Taker and tosses him over his head. Destroyer has just done a short arm clothesline on Goldberg. Taker is getting tired of being pushed around by Matt. He slides out of the ring and gets a chair. Taker walks in the ring with the chair. He walks over to Matt and lifts the chair above his head ready to hit Matt. Matt turns around and kicks Taker in the groin. Taker drops the chair into matt’s arms. Matt drops the chair onto the mat and DDT’s Taker onto it. Taker is bleeding from the head and is lying on the mat immobile. Destroyer picks the chair up and slams it on Goldberg’s head. Matt gets himself a table and slides back into the ring. He puts Taker on top of the table and gets on the top tope. He does an extreme leg drop on Taker and he smashes the table in half. Taker is extremely hurt now. Matt goes over to Goldberg and punches him. Destroyer helps Matt and delivers a double suplex to Goldberg. Destroyer and Matt now punch on with each other.

Taker has found his second wind, and kicks Destroyer in the gut. Destroyer drops the chair and Taker lifts him up onto his shoulders. Taker is set to give Destroyer the last ride, but Matt is back up and kicks Taker in the back. Goldberg is up now and as Destroyer gets free of Taker, Goldberg spears Taker. Taker is lying on the mat. Goldberg is taunting to the crowd. Matt turns Goldberg around and Twist of Fate’s him. Goldberg and Taker are now lying stationary in the ring. Matt walks up to Destroyer and punches him, once, twice, three times. It seems that Destroyer cannot feel any of these hits, because he gets a look of determination on his face and he demolisher’s Matt Hardy. Destroyer falls and lands over Matt. The referee counts, 1.2.3. Destroyer has won.
J.R, “That’s it folks, the new U.S champion is Destroyer. What a great match it was. It has been an exciting night tonight and I guarantee it will be next week as well, so tune in and find out what happens next week on XWE Raw.”
