RAW comes back on air and we are in an office, RAW General Manager Jonathan Coachman's, to be exact, and we see all three General Managers in the room, watching the draft on a television monitor like all of you fans at home. Mick Foley, ECW's General Manager, is the man that breaks the ice.
Mick Foley: Teddy, man, quite a draft you have so far, 'eh?
Teddy Long: Oh yeah, playa'. Umaga an' now tha' Masterpiece? I'm likin' what I'm seein' fo' mah' boys.
Long takes a sip of the champaign that is in his glass, while Foley cracks open a brewski. Coachman, on the otherhand, seems furious at how Smackdown already has two picks under their belt.
Mick Foley: (taking a sip of his beer) Aaah, man this is some nice cold beer. A perfect way to enjoy RAW tonight.
Teddy Long: I agree. Let's 'ave a toast: to the three greatest General Managers in the world, playa'.
Mick Foley: Amen to that, bro.
The two clank their drinks together, but Coachman continues to be a little gittery, pulling out some papers out of his desk.
Mick Foley: Hey Coach, you alright?
Jonathan Coachman: Yeah, yeah... I was just thinking...
Teddy Long: 'Bout what, playa'?
Coachman strokes his goatee before tossing the papers back into the drawer.
Jonathan Coachman: Well... I've received word about a huge free agent wanting to come back to the WWE, and yesterday I was gonna offer him a contract, but...
Mick Foley: But what?
Jonathan Coachman: But I was told by WWE Headquarters that since this man is a former World Champion both you and Teddy have to receive a fair shot at this free agent as well. So I was thinking...
Coachman pauses, thinking over his plan.
Teddy Long: Well go on wit' it, Coach.
Jonathan Coachman: I was thinking that all three of us could put a little friendly 'wager' on this free agent, with the winner earning the rights to that said free agent.
Mick Foley: Well, what's the wager?
Jonathan Coachman: At Judgment Day, all three of us, you, me, and Teddy, pick a representative to wrestle in a triple threat match, where the winner earns his brand the right to sign the free agent. What do you guys say?
Foley and Coachman give each other looks, before sharing a smile and nodding their heads in approval.
Teddy Long: Jus' one thing... who
is this free agent?
Jonathan Coachman: Well I thought you'd never ask...
And just like that, the doors close, and we are taken back out to the middle of the ring with Lillian Garcia for the next match of the night.
***
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, this is our fourth draft match of the evening, for one pick, which features RAW versus ECW!
***Papparazzi***
Plays and Johnny Nitro, along with his valet Melina make their way down the red carpet, with the Papparazzi taking pictures as they come down. Nitro does his usual intro, with Melina doing the splits across the bottom of the rope, before helping her man enter the ring. Nitro takes off his large fur coat and hands it to his woman, and then waits for his opponent to come out.
Jim Ross: Now here comes the cocky, but talented, Johnny Nitro, along with his lovely valet, Melina. He certainly will have a chance to pick up a victory for us tonight.
***This Fire Burns***
Hits next and CM Punk makes his way out of the back for ECW, to a nice amount of cheers from the crowd. Punk has his normal ribs t-shirt on, which can be found exclusively on wweshop.com side), and tosses it into the crowd as he makes his way up the steps. Punk enters the ring and rubs his hands together, anxious in getting his hands on Nitro.
Tazz: Oh baby! One of EC-dub's brightest superstars is out here. JR, your man Nitro is gonna have a tough out here tonight.
Jim Ross: To be fair, I wouldn't say that Punk has a walk in the park either. Johnny Nitro is a former Intercontinental Champion and know's his way around the ring, Tazz.
Tazz: Yeah, but Punk has that Swagger about him. That confidence that he's going to win the match. I'd watch out if I was Nitro.
The bell is then rung, and another draft match is underway.
Match Four
Single Match for One Draft Pick
Johnny Nitro (w/ Melina) vs. CM Punk
The match, featuring two highly athletic superstars, has nonstop action throughout. Both Punk and Nitro show off their wide variety of moves, which include Punk hitting a springboard clothesline, a diving crossbody, and a step-up enziguri. Nitro connected on his fair share of moves as well, including a springboard elbow drop, Russian legsweep, and a running knee smash. Psychology isn't a major focal point during the match, as the two are busy exchanging their maneuvers instead. Nitro eventually becomes the man with the advantage and picks up a two-count, only for Punk to roll up the shoulder just in time.
Nitro keeps his composure, however, and continues his dominance for the next few minutes, until he tries to go big and land the Starship Pain, only for Punk to roll out at the last second, causing Nitro to crash and burn! Punk uses this to his advantage by throwing Nitro into the turnbuckle and connecting with a knee to Nitro's face, followed by a bulldog! Punk then continues holding the upper hand for a few more minutes until he tries to end it with the Go To Sleep, only for Nitro to slide off of his shoulders and take Punk down with a ROUNDHOUSE KICK! Nitro then covers Punk for the win... BUT PUNK GRABS THE BOTTOM ROPE AT 2 1/2! Nitro looks at the referee and can't believe that the match is still going.
Nitro vents his frustrations by slamming his hands onto the mat like a two year old who just didn't get what they wanted. Nitro then walks over and lifts Punk up by his head, only for Punk to sneakily hoist Nitro onto his shoulders and quickly hit the Go 2 Sleep for a victory, resulting in ECW's first draft pick of the night.
Winner: CM Punk via Pinfall (8:19)
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, your winner, via pinfall... CM Punk! ECW will receive one draft pick.
Punk immediately gets up to his feet in a nice pop for his victory, smirking at the defeated Nitro. Nitro rubs his hands through his hair, shocked that he got pinned after having the advantage near the end. He quickly storms out of the ring and hides his face in shame, with Melina trying to cheer him up as he makes his way to the back.
Tazz: Yess, baby! EC-dub ain't gettin' shut out tonight!
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Big deal, Tazz. CM Punk was facing a
RAW wrestler, so are you really surprised that he won?
Jim Ross: I've heard about enough out of you, JBL.
Tazz: Man, I don't care. I just wanna see EC-dub's new extremist!
The three announcers take a look at the TitanTron, which shows various superstars, such as John Cena, The Undertaker, Ric Flair, Carlito, King Booker, Randy Orton, and Matt Hardy, before landing on...
'THE BELFAST BRAWLER' FINLAY!!!!!
"Lambeg" plays and ECW's newest acquisition comes out to a chorus of boos, except from Tazz, who is giddy with excitement at the announcers desk.
Tazz: Hahaha, take THAT JBL. We just got a huge steal with Finlay. He'll certainly be able to fit the 'extreme' mould that us at ECW look for.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Actually, Tazz, I'm happy that you took that filthy Irishman away. That means we don't have to see his little bastard on Smackdown anymore either. This is called an addition by subtraction, and I'm positive nobody in the back is weaping over FINLAY.
Tazz: Say what you want, but he can kick your ass anyday of the week, JBL.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Oh please. He's nothing more then a worthless Irishman.
Jim Ross: I hate to break it up between you two, but we have to go backstage with Todd Grisham. Todd...
***
We are now taken backstage with Grisham, who's with 'The World's Greatest Tag-Team' Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas. The two are flashing smiles with their newly won World Tag-Team Titles around their waist. Both of them shine up their titles as Grisham begins their interview.
Todd Grisham: Guys, I'd first like to congratulate on your title win last night against John Cena and Shawn Michaels. It was quite a performance that you two put on.
Shelton Benjamin: Of course it was a great performance by us, Todd. They don't call us the
World's Greatest Tag-Team for nothing.
Todd Grisham: Um, actually, you guys are the only ones that call yourself the World's Greatest Tag-Team.
Charlie grabs Todd's microphone and interrupts him
Charlie Haas: That's... that's... that's because we... we haven't had a chance to shine yet... Yeah, we've always been... we've always been held down by guys who thought they were better then us. But... but now we're the ones that are holding the belts, not any of them.
Haas pushes the microphone back into Grisham's chest as Grisham preps for another question.
Todd Grisham: Well guys, in just a few minutes it will be put up or shut up for both of you as you guys will be going up against a tag-team from Smackdown for one draft pick. Are you guys nervous as your first match as champions?
This time Shelton takes the microphone and answers the question for himself and his partner.
Shelton Benjamin: Todd, please. Nervous isn't even in our dictionary. As far as we're concerned, Smackdown can throw five guys at us, and we'd still win. So two guys? That's... that's a piece of cake.
Todd Grisham: You guys seem to be awfully confident for only holding the titles for a day as of right now...
The two men are insulted that Todd doesn't believe their sentiments of being great.
Charlie Haas: Listen here, Todd. Me an' Shelton... Me an' Shelton both are gifted in amateur wrestlin', an' now we're gonna show 'em off tonight. It doesn't matter that we've only held the title for a day...
Shelton Benjamin: Yeah, because soon, we'll have the longest ever reign as champions.
Haas let's out an enthusiastic 'yeah', while Grisham forces a laugh out of himself before interrupting the two.
Todd Grisham: Guys, look, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but... but Demolition has the longest single reign with your belts, with over 450 days as champs. I'm not sure you guys can last over a year as champions, if I'm honest.
The champions let out a laugh before Benjamin grabs the microphone again.
Shelton Benjamin: Pssh, Todd, please. You think a year is a challenge to us? I'll tell you what, if we can't last a year as champions, the World's Greatest Tag-Team will split up...
forever.
Haas and Grisham both give Shelton a surprised look after his last comment.
Todd Grisham: Ar- Are you honest with that notion, Shelton?
Charlie Haas: Yeah, Shelton, are you?
Haas and Grisham both stare intently at Benjamin, wanting to know if he's serious or not.
Shelton Benjamin: Yes, I most certainly am, guys. Now let's go get ready for our match, Charlie.
Shelton walks off the set, as Charlie takes his time, soaking in all of the words that Shelton has just said within the past two minutes, before following along. RAW, however, goes to another...
***Commercial***
Lillian Garcia is back inside of the ring to make the ring announcements as RAW comes back on the air.
Lillian Garica: Ladies and gentlemen, this is our fifth draft pick match of the evening, a tag-team match scheduled for one-fall, which features RAW versus Smackdown!
***World's Greatest***
And first out, representing RAW, are the newly crowned World Tag-Team Champions, the (Self-Proclaimed) World's Greatest Tag-Team, Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas. Benjamin has a big pop in his step, probably because he's finally getting a decent push. Haas, however, is a few steps behind Shelton, still thinking over what Shelton told Todd Grisham right before RAW went to commercial that if the two didn't hold the titles for at least a year the World's Greatest Tag-Team would split up for good.
Jim Ross: JBL, Tazz, no offense to any of the wrestlers on either one of your brands, but these two men that are making their way down the ring now are the two of the best amateur wrestlers in the WWE right now. Benjamin is a former Golden Gopher, where he was a two time All-American, and Haas was a two time Big East Champion when he was at Seton Hall. They certainly have the wrestling ability to hold onto the titles for over a year, as Shelton has promised.
***Hey You***
Sprinting out from the back are Smackdown's representatives and current WWE Tag-Team Champions, Paul London and Brian Kendrick. The two sprint down the aisle and slide into the ring, remove their masks, and do their traditional backflips off the top turnbuckle, which gets a small pop from some of the fans in the front row. They hand their titles to the referee and get in their corner, ready to start the match.
Jim Ross: JBL, I have to ask, are these two guys always this energized?
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Yeah, JR, these two guys always seem to be hopped up on caffeine or something. I think it's annoying, but if they wanna burn up their energy by sprinting down the ring, so be it. As long as they pick up the win for Smackdown right now, I won't care how they make their way down the ring.
Jim Ross: I know you'd enjoy receiving another superstar, JBL, but they're going up against RAW's best tag-team at the moment. Champion versus Champion, right now!
Match Five
Tag-Team Match for One Draft Pick
World's Greatest Tag-Team (Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas) (c) vs. Londrick (Paul London and Brian Kendrick) (c)
This short tag-team match has a lot of action in the five minutes that it is held in. Haas and Kendrick kick off the match, with Kendrick hitting a hurricarana only 15 seconds into the match. Within the next minute Kendrick also connected on a jumping side kick and a springboard crossbody, which earned him a nearfall. Haas, however, got the match in his teams advantage when he poked the eye of Kendrick and threw him into his teams corner, followed by making the tag to Shelton.
Haas holds Kendrick near their corner until Benjamin comes sprinting and connecting with a Stinger Splash! For the next few minutes the World Tag-Team Champions isolate Kendrick from his partner, with Haas hitting an inverted atomic drop while Shelton superkicked Kendrick simultaneously. Shelton tried to end the match with a T-Bone Suplex, but Kendrick got out of it with some elbows to the head of Shelton, followed by another jumping side kick, before finally getting the hot tag to London!
Despite London weighing 200 pounds when soaking wet, he swings the control over to his team in a hurry, hitting a dropkick on Benjamin, sending him crashing to the mat, before running over to Haas and punching him in the face, sending him down to the ground! London continues his flurry of moves with an inverted atomic drop of his own on Benjamin, with a Frankensteiner immediately after. London then makes his move to the top rope, looking to land his finisher, the London Calling, and finish off the match. However, right as London gets to the top rope, Haas comes up and PUSHES HIM OFF THE TURNBUCKLE! London crashes head first into the canvas, and Benjamin immediately takes advantage of the situation by connecting on the T-Bone Suplex and getting the easy 1-2-3 pinfall for his team.
Winners: World's Greatest Tag-Team via Pinfall (5:48)
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, your winners via pinfall... The World's Greatest Tag-Team, Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas! RAW will receive one draft pick.
Charlie enters the ring and picks up his partner, hugging him after their first win as champions. The two get their hands raised by the referees and then are handed their World Tag-Team Championship belts. The two pose with them for a second as they, along with everyone else, await to see who they got drafted over to RAW.
Jim Ross: I don't wanna say I told you so, JBL, but...
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Keep that mouth of your's shut, barbecue boy. Your 'champions' cheated to win that match in the first place, so I don't know why you're all giddy with excitement.
Jim Ross: I'm pretty sure it still counts as a win, JBL, and that RAW will get a draft pick in a matter of seconds.
The announcers then turn to the titantron, yet again, to see who RAW's newest superstar will be. The draft screen flashes through various Smackdown superstars, such as Batista, The Undertaker, CM Punk, Bobby Lashley, and Matt Hardy, before landing on...
'THE RABID WOLVERINE' CHRIS BENOIT!!!!!
HOLY SHIT! The Rabid Wolverine comes back to the brand where he won his first and only World Championship, back in 2004. "Whatever" plays throughout the loudspeakers and Benoit, with his United States Championship, comes out to a great ovation. He raises his title up in the air and points out to all of the fans cheering for him, only for...
***MacMallitant!***
To blare out through the PA System, with Smackdown General Manager Teddy Long making his way out. Teddy only gets a small reaction, but doesn't appear to want to waste any time, with a microphone already in his hand.
Teddy Long: 'Ey, Chris, playa, I'm sad to see you leave Smackdown here tonight, but there's something that you 'ave, 'dat I need.
Chris looks at long, then at his United States Championship belt, which is a Smackdown only belt. He looks at Long in despair, not wanting to give up the title that he has held since October of the last year.
Teddy Long: Yea', playa, I need 'dat United States Championship belt.
Chris takes one final hard look at his United States Championship belt, kisses it, then reluctantly hands it over to Teddy Long.
Teddy Long: I'm sorry, Chris, but I'm jus' followin' the WWE's rule 'dat a champion can't bring his belt over to another brand. I hope their isn't any hard feelin's.
Chris nods his head in acceptance, then makes his way past the curtain. Long stays out on the top ramp as RAW goes to another commercial break.
***Commercial***
RAW comes back on air with Jonathan Coachman, Teddy Long, and Mick Foley again in Coachman's room, discussing something when there is a knock at the door. Coachman, as it is his room, gets up to open the door. Coachman pulls it open, and the man on the otherside of the door is the 'Legend Killer' himself, Randy Orton. Orton is in his pants and one of his shirts that can be found on WWEshop.com, not dressed to compete at all.
Jonathan Coachman: Oh, Randy, I didn't expect to see you here.
Randy Orton: Well, Coach, you better expect me to stay in here until I get a talk with you... in private.
Foley and Long both hear Randy's words, and Coachman leads them out the door, telling them that it, "will only take a second." Coachman then closes the door and the two sit down in chairs, with Coachman's desk between them.
Jonathan Coachman: So, Randy, what are you here for now?
Randy Orton: Last night, as I was watching Backlash at my hotel room, since I wasn't included on the show, I saw that Jeff Hardy, a man who has been known throughout the lockerroom as a monkey flying drug addict, earn the number one contendership to John Cena's WWE Championship, just by simply climbing a ladder...
Coachman tries to interject Orton...
Jonathan Coachman: Randy, what are you...
But is shut down himself.
Randy Orton: Let me FINISH!... Why is it that a talentless hack like Jeff Hardy can become the number one contender just by climbing a ladder, when there are clearly more talented wrestlers, such as myself, that are not even getting a match on RAW, let alone a number one contendership match? Huh? What do you have to say about that "Coach"?
Coach, annoyed at the tone that Randy is using his name, continues to try and keep his poise. He sits up in his seat before he answers Randy's inquiry.
Jonathan Coachman: Well, Randy, it's because Jeff has shown that he wants to become the WWE Champion, and that he will do anything to get a chance at the title. You, however, have not expressed any interest in wrestling on RAW at all. So why should I reward you for being lazy when there are harder working guys like Jeff here on RAW?
Orton becomes really pissed off that Coach calls him 'lazy'.
Randy Orton: You are calling me... lazy? You really want to see all of the talent that I have?
Jonathan Coachman: Yes, actually, I do.
Randy Orton: Fine then... Tonight, I am entering myself in the 15-man battle royal for two draft picks. I will show you my talent by throwing everyone else over the top rope and winning the match for you.
Jonathan Coachman: Well I certainly look forward to watching you tonight, Randy.
Randy Orton: Save it, Coachman. I'm done here.
And just like that, Orton leaves and we are taken back out into the arena.
***
With Lillian Garcia inside of the ring, ready to introduce the next match.
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, this is our sixth draft match of the night, and is a singles match for one fall, featuring the RAW and ECW brands!
***Cool***
Plays and the Intercontinental Champion, Carlito comes out for the second time tonight, this time by himself, and not with his mentor Ric Flair. Carlito tosses his apple shirt into the crowd and takes a huge bite out of the apple in his hand as he walks down the ring.
Jim Ross: For the second match in a row, RAW will feature a superstar that is currently a champion. This time we get the Intercontinental Champion Carlito, who has been mentored by the legend Ric Flair over the past few months and trying to get tips from the 'Dirtiest Player in the Game'. Tonight, however, Carlito will be alone inside of the ring to face his opponent.
***Balls, Balls, Balls***
Hits next and Balls Mahoney, from ECW, comes out of the curtain to a very, very tiny reaction. Things aren't looking good here for ECW already, and the match hasn't even started up yet. Balls jogs down the ring and gives the fans in the front row high fives, before entering and getting ready for his match.
Tazz: For those of you that don't watch ECW regularly, this man here is Balls Mahoney, and he is one extreme mother f'er, man. He's a former tag-team champion himself, and he won't be an easy out for Carlito.
Jim Ross: Certainly he won't be, and now let's get this match underway for another draft pick.
Match Six
Singles Match for One Draft Pick
Carlito vs. Balls Mahoney
Despite what Tazz said about, oh, 15 seconds ago, Carlito does have a rather easy time with Balls. Carlito uses his speed advantage to avoid the out of shape Balls for a few minutes, before taking him down to the ground with a picture perfect dropkick. Carlito then throws a few left hands to Balls and takes him down with a snap suplex. Carlito continues his domination with a springboard back elbow smash, and finishes him off with a Backstabber a few minutes later for the victory.
Winner: Carlito via Pinfall (3:18)
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, your winner via pinfall... Carlito! RAW will receive one draft pick.
The Intercontinental Champion brings an impressive performance here, cleaning up Balls in just over three minutes. Carlito is handed his Intercontinental Championship and poses with it for a few seconds before he exits the ring and makes his way back up the curtain.
Jim Ross: Oh hell yes! An' just like that, we have more draft wins then your brand, JBL.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: The night ain't over yet, JR.
Jim Ross: Carlito brought out his 'A-Game' here tonight and handily defeated the ECW Original Balls Mahoney. Now let's take a look at who RAW's newest superstar will be...
The camera again pans to the titantron, and yet again we see the faces of popular Smackdown and ECW superstars such as Batista, The Undertaker, CM Punk, Rob Van Dam, Bobby Lashley, and King Booker, before landing on...
'THE PARAGON OF VIRTUE' ELIJAH BURKE!!!!!
"Don't Waste My Time" plays and Elijah makes his way out of the curtian, to a somewhat mixed reaction, although there are more boos then cheers. He waves out to the crowd, to noone in particular, before pointing to himself and shouting that it's "his time".
Jim Ross: How about these last two draft picks for RAW, boys? First we get the experienced vetran in Chris Benoit, and now we are getting one of the brightest talents in the WWE with Elijah Burke. RAW certianly is about to get hot as we approach the summer.
Tazz: While the kid has a big mouth, there's no doubt you guys have a great talent on your hands. He has the talent to become champion, and he may do great on RAW.
Jim Ross: To update you all on who has been shifted to where, so far there have been 6 draft picks, with 3 going to RAW, 2 to Smackdown, and 1 to ECW. On RAW, Kane, Chris Benoit, and Elijah Burke have all been added. Umaga and Chris Masters have been shifted to the blue brand, and Finlay has gone to the land of extreme. It certainly has been a memorable draft night, and it will only get greater as the night goes on, which will end with a 15 man battle royal for TWO draft picks. All of this, and more, will happen on our special three hour edition of RAW, once we come back from a commercial break.
***Commercial***
RAW comes back from commercial with Smackdown wrestler Daivari already inside of the ring, with his theme playing as he gets introduced by Lillian Garica.
Jim Ross: Welcome back to Monday Night RAW, everybody! We have just gotten underway with our third hour of our special WWE Draft show, and are glad that you are here to join us. During the break Lillian Garcia announced the following match as a singles match for one pick, featuring the Smackdown brand versus ECW.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: And now it's time for the clear-cut best brand in the WWE to win these last three matches of the night, starting with the man inside of the ring, Daivari.
Tazz: Heh, no offense JBL, but Daivari is nothin' more then a joke, man! He'll be shaking in his boots when he sees ECW's representative.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Oh please, Daivari can take any hack that can just swing a chair around.
***Huka Blues***
Blares through the sound system and the 'Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal, Death-Defying Maniac' Sabu makes his way out of the curtain. He points up to the sky, with a decent reaction from the crowd. As he walks down the aisle he gives the crowd some high fives, before pointing a finger in the air and sliding under the bottom rope. Once Sabu gets inside he removes his turban piece and gets ready in his corner.
Tazz: Yeeahh baby! Another ECW Original out here to kick some ass. I can already tell Daivari is scared just by his reaction when Sabu's theme played.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: I think you've taken a few too many shots to the head, Tazz. Daivari is simply getting warmed up for his match. He can't wait to take on an idiot that made his name know just by jumping through tables. It'll be a cakewalk.
Tazz: Heh, in your dreams.
The bell then rings as we are taken to the action in the middle of the ring.
Match Seven
Singles Match for One Draft Pick
Daivari vs. Sabu
The match, like the one just a few minutes ago, is only given a few minutes. However, unlike the last match, the ECW Original is in the drivers seat here. Daivari has the advantage for the first minute, jumping Sabu before the bell rings, but once Sabu dodges a missle dropkick attempt from the top rope, he takes advantage of the match and never lets off the gas pedal. He begins his dominance by hitting a jumping DDT, followed by a slingshot crossbody. He then waits for Daivari to get up to his feet, and when he does, he quickly gets taken down again, this time with a springboard leg lariat. Sabu again waits a few seconds before he finally finishes Daivari off with a triple jump moonsault for the pinfall victory.
Winner: Sabu via Pinfall (4:11)
Lillian Garcia: Ladies and gentlemen, your winner via pinfall... Sabu! ECW will receive one draft pick.
Sabu almost immediately gets up to his feet and gets his arm raised by the referee, to cheers from the crowd. Sabu points up into the sky and does a few hand slaps as he makes his way to the back of the curtian.
Tazz: Wha... What did I tell you JBL? EC-dub gets another one. Yeahh!
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Please, Tazz, Sabu was just lucky that Daivari has been sick the past week with food poisoning, otherwise he'd be the one that was earning the victory tonight.
Tazz: Food poisoning? JBL, man, I thought you'd have a better excuse then that.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: It's not an excuse it's the DAMN truth. It's nice to see that you have sympathy for guys who are in pain right now, you jackass.
Tazz: Don't start with me, JBL. I'll make you wish you never came here tonight.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: Bring it on, you fat sack of crap!
Jim Ross: Fella's please! Let's take a look at who's going to jump to the 'Land of Extreme'.
The trio calm down as then all turn to the titantron to see a variety of RAW and Smackdown wrestlers appear on it, such as John Cena, Randy Orton, Edge, Batista, The Undertaker, and King Booker, before landing on...
'MR. MONEY IN THE BANK' MR. KENNEDY!!!!!!!!
HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! HOLY SHIT! ECW HAS THE BIGGEST STEAL IN THE DRAFT SO FAR! MR. KENNEDY HAS BEEN SENT TO THE EXTREME BRAND! Nobody can believe it! "Turn Up The Trouble" hits as Kennedy makes his way out from the back, with his Money In The Bank Briefcase in his hand. He does his traditional intro then walks back out of the curtain.
Tazz: YEEEEAAAHHH! HOW DO YOU LIKE THAT, JBL!?
Instead of some insulting rebuttal, JBL is... at a loss of words.
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: This can't... this is... I don't... how did...
Jim Ross: THIS NIGHT HAS JUST GOTTEN EVEN A WHOLE LOT LARGER! ECW HAS CERTAINLY GOTTEN THE BIGGEST SPLASH OF THE NIGHT SO FAR!
John 'Bradshaw' Layfield: I can't... this can't be...
JBL continues to be at a loss of words as RAW goes to another...
***Commercial***
Once RAW comes back from a commercial break, we are taken into a lockerroom, which contains that of the World Heavyweight Champion, The Undertaker. Undertaker is simply staring at his World Heavyweight Championship, as the door is opened, which reveals to be Undertaker's opponent last night at Backlash, and partner in tonight's big RAW vs. Smackdown tag-team match, Batista.
Batista: Look, I don't like you, and you don't like me...
The Undertaker nods in agreement.
Batista: But I wanna WIN tonight! The last time it was you an' me versus these two we lost... and I HATE losing.
Again, the Undertaker shows no emotion whatsoever while nodding in agreement.
Batista: So for tonight, I say we bury our differences and put John Cena and Shawn Michaels out of their misery. Agreed?
The Undertaker nods his head for a third time as Batista leaves the lockerroom.
