BTB: Road To Wrestlemania XXX

[Schmidty]

Ooh ya! And maybe Jay Briscoe and Kevin Steen?

 

[Nate]

We'll see.

 

[Troy]

Update #3

RAW's will either be up Thursday or possibly even! I never anticipated that a proper Hell in a Cell match would take so damn long to write lol, oh then there's some promos to do as well...

Thank you Troy for the words of encouragement! I'm a fan of tag team wrestling too so I'm trying to get as many teams built up as possible. Gotta do something with the lower card people, yet without making another 3MB.

Looking forward to reading that HIAC match, should be a fun read.

I wish that WWE had that same thought process in that you need to do something with the lower card people. Nice to see everyone used on the roster.

Michael Cole: Ladies and gentleman, we are live tonight on Monday Night RAW, and what a show do we have planned for those in attendance and the WWE fans watching at home. I'm Michael Cole, being broadcasted alongside with John 'Bradshaw' Layfield and Jerry 'The King' Lawler.

Bradshaw: That's right Cole, tonight we are going to witness the first confrontation between Paul Heyman and Christian, as we're going to see a brand new war happening between a WWE Superstar and Paul Heyman's Guys.

King: Also we're going to see the return of the nWo to Monday Night RAW! Kevin Nash and Scott Hall will be together in a WWE Ring as they address the crowd in attendance! I can't wait!

Cole: Also guys don't forget about the matchups that are being presented tonight, including 4 of the 8 teams that are going to be involved in a turnmoil match on Smackdown as they join forces tonight in an 8 Man Tag Team match, as well as for the first time ever. a Hell in a Cell match will take place right here live on RAW with the WWE Championship on the line! It's been awhile since RAW had a Hell in a Cell match take place, so things should get really interesting!


In-Ring Promo

Batista's theme music blasts through the PA system as the crowd fires off a hail of boos to the WWE Champion. Batista enters on stage alone as he doesn't stop to do his signature poses, he just walks down the aisle, ignoring all the trash talk from the fans. Batista enters the ring and looks around as a microphone is presented to him, then his music is cut off as the crowd lets him have it with a series of boos.

Batista: Let it be known to those who are unaware of my presence that I am the WWE Champion. I control what happens backstage, and I control what happens in the ring. I defeat any wrestler that dares to come up to the plate without a sound, and I remain champion. And at the end of the night I remain the best in this business and I remain the best at what I do, and that is being WWE Champion. What I'm getting at here is why in the hell would Paul Heyman allow CM Punk to defend MY title tonight against John Cena, with the stakes so high as they battle it out in a Hell in a Cell Match. Now I'm saying this as nicely as possible Punk, but I don't trust you with my title one bit. As a matter of fact I trust you just as much as I trust you to win the Royal Rumble match at the Royal Rumble match, which I'm glad I didn't because look what happened: you let someone like Christian win the damn thing, now I'm left with a little bug to deal with at Wrestlemania.

More boos are flying thoughout the arena as Batista carries on.

But Christian isn't in my list of things to worry about, not tonight anyways. My goal for tonight is to remain the WWE Champion after the Hell in a Cell match, and I'm not even in the damn thing! CM Punk is abusing the Freebird Rule for his own personal hate against John Cena, and it sickens me that he would use MY title as bait to bring Cena into this match. Now let me tell you something Punk, Heyman brough the Freebird Rule for my title so we can defend the title as a group, as one; group meaning all of us, NOT you! There is a reason why I don't let you defend my title, and there's a reason why I don't even let Curtis Axel defend my title; which is saying alot because I have faith in that kid, and I would let him have my back at anytime. I would say the same thing about you but after what happened on Smackdown, I don't think that I really care for you to be in our little group anymore, since you appear not to have any respect for other people's possession's, namely my title. All I'm saying right now is that you better win your stupid match tonight, or there will be hell to pay Punk, THAT I can promise you.

Batista is getting booed out of the building as he starts to clear up his throat before continuing on.

Why couldn't you just have done what you were told and win the Royal Rumble match? You would have won the title against Kane at Wrestlemania 30, and this whole mess wouldn't have started. But you had to get personal with Cena and cost us that chance to obtain both World titles into our group. And while I don't consider Christian a problem, I do however consider your loyalty and respect to me and my title a problem. I mean how am I suppose to know that I will face Christian at Wrestlemania, instead of you? Apparently you like to take my title defences without my permission and apparently you like to claim that you know what your doing. Well Punk if that is true then why don't you come out right now and explain to me what the hell is going on inside that funny little head of yours? Also note that Paul Heyman isn't here right now to break things up if things get a little more physical then you hope for, fyi. So come out Punk and show me what you're worth!

Batista lowers the mic as the crowd starts to chant for Punk. The arena is silent apart from the crowd's chants as Punk's theme music starts to play, drawing a mixed reaction from the crowd. Punk pops up from the entrance as he stands there and does the slow clap. Batista doesn't look impressed as Punk is not even smiling, but somehow his face expresses humour on him.

Punk: I understand that you want things to get physical, you know with all of the testosterone in your system, but I think that I'll use as less energy as possible and stand right here if that's cool. Man you look so cute standing there as you're getting all angry and emotional about my feelings towards you, like a actually give a damn on what you think about me. Well as a matter of fact Batista I actually do give a damn what you think, for you see I too love being part of this team and I would do anything for Paul Heyman. But for you... I would do squat for. Heck I wouldn't even have defended this title if Cena basically 'persuaded' me into doing it, otherwise the title would be all yours big guy.

Batista looks angry at that comment as Punk laughs, then continues.

Oh by the way, you call me useless on Smackdown, yet you were nowhere to be found when I won the match for us. Curtis Axel had Kane held down but you went off with Christian somewhere doing who knows what, so I basically did your job for you and won our match for us. You're welcome. Now see that Hell in a Cell that's hanging above you? Yeah well I will be in that thing tonight, and I can promise you that I won't be leaving it empty handed so quit your bitching and save me the hassle from shutting you up. We both may be Paul Heyman Guys, but we are world's apart buddy.

Batista looks angry as he starts speaking again.

Batista: I agree that we are worlds apart Punk. I am a champion among men, a God among Gods, while you aren't even worthy enough to shine my boots for my match at Wrestlemania. Hell you aren't even worthy to shine by boots on Smackdown! Say what you want CM Punk, but I will make sure that I am champion by the end of this night, even if I have to rip open that cage and enter it myself to destroy Cena in the middle of that ring. Now if I were you I'd leave the stage right now before I get angry and regret doing something bad. Fair warning Punk.

Punk just laughs as he looks at Batista, the raises his mic up again.

Punk: What's that Dave? 'The Animal is going to unleash on CM Punk right here right now' is that what it is? Well I can tell you right now Batista that you are not going to do squat right now, because you need me to be in perfect condition tonight in order to beat John Cena in that very right to retain your precious title. Now the main question is... how far are you willing to go to ensure my saftey for tight? Hehe, we'll I guess we'll find out, won't we? Because I can tell you one thing Batista, and that is that I WILL walk out of that curtain tonight wearing YOUR belt. If you can't bear to watch me do that, then drop the belt right there and go home... actually on second thought don't because I want you to witness be destroying Cena in the center of that ring tonight. Addios, Big Dave.

Batista looks confused and shocked as CM Punk drops the mic and waves to Batista as he walks off the stage and heads to the back. Batista slowly shakes his head as he's worried about what's going to happen tonight.



Backstage Promo

Daniel Bryan and Mark Henry, and Air Boom are all backstage in a team meeting as the fans pop. All four men are in a semi circle as they are in the middle of a prep talk.

Daniel Bryan: Alright everyone, tonight is an important night for us. Tonight we show The Awesome Americans and Latin terror that they are not the two most dominant tag teams currently out there. No, tonight we show them that the reunion of Air Boom and the formation of Mark Henry and I will knock off everyone's socks in the arena, and show the world that we can win the tag team turnmoil match next week! This is the way that we can get the advantage against our opponents next week by beating them in their own game tonight by joining forces to take them out, one by one if we have to. With the power of former WWE Tag Team Champions Air Boom, the World's Strongest Man Mark Henry and myself, Daniel Bryan, we will show the whole world that we are a forced to be reckoned with!

The crowd pops as Bryan aknowleges it, then continues on with his prep talk.

First we have the former tag team champions Air Boom. I mean I don't have to say it but you two were probably the most dynamic duo a couple of years back, and now you're back together and it's time to show off your skills once again and bring the Smackdown to those losers who think they know what it means to be a team. I bet those guys don't even know the meaning of teamwork, so that's our main advantage right there! Next we have the World's Strongest Man Mark Henry on our side. I mean man I could've been seriously hurt last week on RAW if you didn't come and save my ass, so you have my eternal thanks for that. Now with that being said we have to team up for the first time tonight and show that we are a better team than the 'Awesome Americans' are. I know that we don't have a team name yet, but I'm sure one will come to us eventually. It took a while for Kane and I to get one so don't worry about it.

Daniel Bryan starts to chuckle, but gets serious quickly

I'm serious guys, with Air Boom's tag team experience, Mark Henry's strength and my sklls, I see no reason why we shouldn't win the 8 man tag team match tonight. Alright let's have a team cheer!

All four men stick their arms in and give out a shout, then leaves the camera shot.


Ding! Ding! Ding!

Justin Roberts: Ladies and Gentleman, this contest is set for one fall and it is a #1 contenders match for the United States Title.

Sheamus takes a deep breath as he approaches Ziggler as the both get into a lockup to start off this match. Sheamus easily overpowers Ziggler and brings him to the corner and holds him there, but the referee eventually breaks up the hold. Sheamus steps back a pace but Ziggler slaps Sheamus across the face!

[I]Josh Matthews is backstage with John Cena, Cena isn't showing much in terms of emotion.[/I]

[COLOR="#FF0000"]Josh Matthews: John Cena, tonight in the main event you will face off against long time rival CM Punk in a Hell in a Cell match, and for the first time it will be for the WWE Championship. What are your thoughts about entering the Hell in a Cell with CM Punk?[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#000080"]John Cena: Well Josh, there really isn't much to say about that. I mean Punk gave me the golden opportunity to battle against him one on one inside the Hell in a Cell where none of Paul Heyman's cronies can come help him. And the fact that he put the WWE Title on the line is just a bonus, because everyone knows that Punk is no match against me. I proved it when I tossed him over the ropes at the Royal Rumble, and I prove my dominance over him when he refused to fight me last week on Smackdown! Punk, I hate to say it but you're time is up and my time is now, I haven't been WWE Champ ever since Batista unexpectly returned at Summerslam and beat me for it, but all I can say is that THE CHAMP IS HERE! And hey don't worry Chrisitan, because I will gladly face you at Wrestlemania in the main event for the title once I beat CM Punk in the middle of that ring, of course I won't do it nice and easy because that man's been a pain in my ass for the past several weeks and it's time to finally shut him up for good. Let me tell you something Josh you don't win the Hell in a Cell match, you survive it, and I can guarantee you that I'll be the one who survives it tonight as I walk out of that cage with the WWE Title belt around my waist![/COLOR]

[COLOR="#FF0000"]Matthews: Do you think that Batista will somehow interfere with your match John, directly or directly?[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#000080"]Cena: Haha now that's an interesting question Josh. Well you see I was watching the beginning of the show and I noticed that CM Punk was loving it when he threated to lose Batista's title, and Batista fuming that he might lose it tonight over Punk's stupidity. So normally I would say that Batista might try to interferee with the match somehow buuuuuut considering that the ring will be surrounded by countless square feet of mesh, I doubt it that Batista will find a way to get to me. And heck even if he tries to act intelligent and open up the cage door somehow, I'll be ready for him. I'm sorry Dave but that title is mine and there's nothing that you can do about it. I'll cut you a deal man, if I do win the title tonight then you can have my qualifier spot for the World Heavyweight Title match that's coming up at the Elimination Chamber. Addios man, and tell your buddy CM Punk the best of luck in his match against me tonight, because I am a man of dedication and determination, and he's going to need it.[/COLOR]

[I]Cena finger salutes to the camera and nods to Josh before leaving the shot of the camera.[/I]

Fandango looks pissed as the crowd is jeering him with insults and chants based on his cowardness last week. He enters the ring and doesn't even pose for the crowd, just looks at Randy Orton oddly.

Randy Orton vs Fandango


Ding! Ding! Ding!

The fans are booing loudly at Fandango as he waives a kiss to Summer Rae, but Rae isn't taking any of it. Fandango then turns around and gestures Rae to keep quiet as he turns to Orton but Orton hits Fandango with a dropkick, Fandango crashing to the ground. Orton gets up and poses to the crowd which gathers a positive reaction from the fans. Fandango gets up and his hanging onto the ropes while looking suprised as Orton is giving Fandango a smug look.

Fandango is moving around Orton and keeps him down with his foot as he starts to yell out insults to Randy Orton, Orton trying his best to fight off the ever mischevious Fandango. Orton quickly manages to get onto his feet but gets sidetracked as Fandango slaps Orton across the face. Orton turns around while holding onto his cheek but Fandango quickly goes behind Orton and connects with the Russian leg sweep. Orton goes down as Fandango starts to taunt some more. He stalks Orton as Orton slowly makes it to his feet, Orton getting up as Fandango locks in and goes for the Swinging Reverse STO but Orton slips out and counters with the RKO, but Fandango slams Orton onto the mat!

And Randy Orton kicks out! Fandango starts to shake his head as he looks at the referee in disgust, then turns his attention back to Orton as he starts to hit several fists to Orton's head, then nails a jumping knee drop to Orton's head as Orton rolls to his stomach to place his head on the ring, but Fandango just kicks Orton in the ribs which sends him rolling towards the ropes. Orton looks at Fandango as he struggles to lift himself up with the assist of the ropes as Fandango runs at Orton but Orton pulls the ropes down as Fandango goes crashing to ringside! The fans jump to their feet at Orton's counter as Fandango is now screeching at ringside, demanding Rae to come assist him but Rae refuses to do so. Fandango doesn't look impressed as he turns towards Orton in the ring but Orton has jumped from the ropes and hits Fandango with a Cross Body Vault! The fans are eating up everyone action that Orton has made as he throws Fandango back inside the ring. Fandango looks dazed as Orton slides back inside and runs up as he stomps onto Fandango's back twice, then pulls him up as he smashes his face on the turnbuckles, then gets onto the ropes as he raises his fist in the air, signalling for the 10 punches!


King: Randy Orton sure knows how to get the crowd going, huh folks?

Bradshaw: Randy sure has a knack to get fans to participate in his matches King, I mean just look at him.


Randy Orton starts the ten punches as the crowd starts to count along with him. Randy Orton makes it to seven before Fandango pushes him off the ropes, which gathers a ton of boos from the crowd. Orton looks confused as Fandango starts to coward behind his hands, telling Orton no more, but Orton walks up to Fandango, however the referee pushes Orton back as he checks on Fandango. Orton rolls his eyes as Fandango is telling the referee something, the referee nodding but Orton pushes the referee aside as he proceeds to nail some quick strikes to Fandango. The referee then pushes Orton away from Fandango as he starts lecturing Orton but Fandango moves the ref aside as he jumps Orton with a Lou Theaz press, then beings a series of punches to the unexpecting Orton. The crowd starts to boo really loudly as Fandango rises up and waves some of his air away, then yells at Orton as he goes onto the top rope, signalling for the Leg Drop.

No! The referee notices the foot on the rope and calls off the pin! Randy Orton looks distressed as the fans are confused why Summer Raoe just did that. Orton looks really irritated as he picks Fandango to his feet as he gets him into a reverse headlock and nails the reverse headlock neckbreaker onto Fandango. Rae is at ringside and is telling Fandango "you're not getting off that easily", which explains why she kept the match going. Orton starts to breath heavy as he circles Fandango while stomping him in various locations, then awaits as Fandango slowly makes it back to his feet.

William Regal is seen inside his office with Paul Heyman and Curtis Axel are standing.

William Regal: I'm seriously getting worried on what you're planning, Paul. You're quite a rescourceful chap to have around but I can't keep you loose on RAW when I'm trying to prepare for Wrestlemania XXX.

Paul Heyman: Don't worry Mr. General Manager I have no intentions to interferee with any of your buisness for Wrestlemania or whatever important things you're attempting to accomplish. All I'm trying to do is gain the power of both championships in my little group so you can run your little show while we say what goes around here. Any questions?

Regal: No and thanks, that's much more convincing...

The door opens as Batista storms through and stands in between William Regal and Paul Heyman, looking to be in a foul mood

Batista: Can someone tell me what the hell is going on for tonight? Who said that CM Punk was allowed to defend MY title on his own against someone like John Cena? Wasn't the whole point of your conspiracy was to prevent this from happening at Wrestlemania? Actually don't answer that because I know the answer to that. Hell everyone in this frickin' building knowns the answer to that because the witness us succeeding our mission at the Royal Rumble when Cena got knocked out! Now you two allowed that man to pit against Cena for the title tonight? I don't know how it can get possibly worse... oh wait it can because it's in a Hell in a Cell match! Are you trying to screw me over Heyman?

Heyman: Batista just calm down...

Batista: No I will not calm down Paul! This whole Paul Heyman Guys thing is starting to get on my nerves. I mean I allow my title to go in the Freebird Rule and suddenly CM Punk truly believes that he has every right to defend it on his own terms. Look at me Heyman, I am the WWE Champion, NOT CM Punk, ME! If anyone should go out there tonight, it'll be me kicking Cena's ass and making sure that I'm still champion by the end of this night. William Regal you have to make this happen, please!

Regal: I can't do that Batista, John Cena has trained for this match all weekend and I can't deny him the right to face off against his opponent. You'll just have to pray and hope that CM Punk can overcome the odds and keep the title dear boy. But I'll tell you something right now, should Cena win the title tonight I'll give you the opportunity the get another World title by replacing you in Cena's spot for the Elimination Chamber Qualifiers. I'm very sorry ol' bean but that's the best that I can do for you under these circumstances.

Batista is ready to blow a gasket as CM Punk comes walking in the room, receiving a mix response from the crowd. CM Punk walks past Batista as he nods and smiles then goes to Regal as he looks at everyone in the room.

CM Punk: So much tension in the room, I mean come on guys it's just a title match, right? What could possibly go wrong Big Dace, don't you have the confidence in you that I can win this thing tonight, or are you certainly positive that I would get my ass kicked from the likes of John Cena. Need I remind you that I've beated him before, and so have you . So I don't need to state the obvious that Cena's bark is definitely worse than his bite, and beating him will be simple as one two three... if you can count that far that is. I know what you're thinking, and that is that I am a very irresponsible person for putting your own title on the line without your permission. Well you see I would let you face off against Cena tonight, but you're not the one that Cena knocked out at the Royal Rumble match, you're the one that started this whole Cena conspiracy so you wouldn't have to face off against Cena at Wrestlemania, and you're the one who allowed us to defend the title under the Freebird Rule as well. So stop bitching about your problems and let the real men here solve them for you.

Batista gets face to face with Punk as Punk can't help but smile as Batista is shaking in complete anger.

Batista: If you even dare to screw me over tonight Punk, I will make your life miserable. That is my only warning to you.

CM Punk: ...hahaha. That is so cute Dave. Oh by the way since I'm defending our title tonight, I feel that I should be obligated to wear the belt around my waist when I walk out to the hell in a cell. Don't you agree?

Batista just stares at Punk as Punk extends his hand out, expecting Batista to give him the WWE title to him. Batista just looks down, then back up at CM Punk as he leaves William Regals office while still holding onto the belt. CM Punk turns around and just laughs as the door closes behind him.

In Ring Promo


The NWO's music is being played as the fans are screaming right now, as Scott Hall and Kevin Nash both walk on the stage and stand there as the fans are going completely wild. Hall and Nash are enjoying the moment as they make their way to the ring, happy that they are getting a nice reaction from the crowd. Hall and Nash enter the ring as they look completely badass as usual, then grab a set of mics as their music is turned off and the fans begin to chant various things, Hall and Nash then have the crowd quiet down.

Kevin Nash: It's been a while since the NWO has been in the WWE ring, how are you guys doing tonight? We came here to do one thing and one thing only, and to make sure that our legacy does not die! We haven't been in a WWE ring together as a duo in over 10 years, and I think this is a perfect time to make a comeback as not only Kevin Nash and Scott Hall, but as the New World Order! In 2002 after the nWo left the WWE, we left our mark so big that future WWE fans will be talking about us for many more years to come, but that doesn't mean that we can't make an apperance for a time or two, now doesn't it? I'm sure that the fans who have been around here for a while will appreciate our appearance, and those younger fells will eventually learn who we are. But we're not here only to remind you of that mark that we made over 10 years ago, no we're here to leave a brand new mark!

The fans explode from their seats as they like what they're hearning from Kevin Nash. Scott Hall nods as he raises up his mic.

Scott Hall: I am especially interested in doing something of importance in this company right now, since Vince McMahon never hired me back in the WWE ever since 2002. Since then I've done nothing in my life of great value, but I'm feeling kinda... bad right now if you will. I love the WWE more than anyone out there watching, and I love the WWE more than any superstar that's backstage. Hell I love the WWE more than big sexy right here. But like Kevin Nash said we're not out here for love and we're not out here for glory, we're out here to keep the legacy of the nWo alive and we want to lay down the biggest mark that the wrestling world will ever witness. Normally we would just cause enough chaos that you people would just shout and love, which is what we're normally loved for, but this time we though that we would try something different. You see we noticed that someone else in WWE was suppose to make a surprise appearance tonight on RAW tonight, but we figured that we would call him out instead.

The crowd pops for Hall's remark, and now is wondering who this person is.

This man is a legend of sorts, one that I'm sure all of you know. This man has many great Wrestlemania moments and never fails to have a bad moment. He stopped wrestling a while ago and we're kinda disappointed to hear that, but maybe it's for the best since he he'll probably walk with a cane in the next couple of years. We're interested in what he has to say about us tonight and that's why we're calling out this specific someone that we've heard that is suppose to appear tonight in the WWE, and we're not leaving this ring until this someone comes out and meets us face to face like the man that I used to know he was. So come on out man and show the world that you're still the legend that you claim to be.

Kevin Nash and Scott Hall both look at the entrance and wait for the person they're calling out to come out until...

Cole: It's SHAWN MICHAELS!

Bradshaw: Well I'll be damned.. this is going to get interesting!


Shawn Michaels enters the stage as the crowd is going NUTS, watching him as he walks down the ramp then does is signature pose with fireworks popping from the stage. Michaels then walks down the ramp to the ring as he enters it and poses towards the crowd. Michaels then gets a serious look on his face as he looks up to Hall and Nash, who both do the slow clap as they have smiles on their faces. Michaels doesn't look too pleased for Hall calling him out like that.

Hall: Well look who it is folks. It's the former WWE Champion Shawn Michaels, a WWE Hall of Famer, and a good friend of ours, isn't he Kevin? Man I remember our ladder match 20 years ago like it was yesterday. Remember when we had the two Intercontinental titles hanging above our heads as he struggled to get to the top, but fortunatly I won that match Shawn. I'm sure that you've thought about it from time to time but I don't believe that it bothered you anymore. I remember the last time I saw you in the WWE is when we were part of the nWo, remember man when me, you, Big Sexy, Booker T and the Big Show were all together and we controlled the WWE like it was our own territory. But that was a while ago now Shawn, and I hate to admit it man but you've changed. You used to be a high roller like us and you used to not give a damn about anything. But ever since you became a born again Christian, you became a completely different man. Now I'm cool with that and everything my man, but Kev and I want to see the old Shawn Michaels, the one that we can call a best friend. Is he still in there Shawn, is The Heartbreak Kid still inside this old body that everyone calls 'Shawn Michaels?

Hall lowers the mic as he's getting a mixed reaction from the crowd. Michaels looks away from Hall but then turns back to Hall and looks at him dead in the eye.

Shawn Michaels: It took you 10 years to come back to the WWE and say THAT to me? I was so sure that you would say something that would actually hurt my feelings but menial insults would work too. I mean I thought for a guy who gained a 100 pounds since the last time I saw him in the WWE would actually have something pleasent to say about his long time friend, but I guess not. Who told you to say that Scott, you or Big Not Sexy right behind you? Sorry Kevin but obviously you're on his side and not mine you're going to get hit in the crossfire between us. I'll give you a chance to walk away right now but I'm pretty sure that you're stubborn enough to stay by his side no matter what, even if that means kicking you in the teeth when it comes down to it. Heck I'm pretty sure that you take the shot for your love mate there as you two seem to...

Kevin Nash runs to Michaels and gets face to face with Shawn Michaels.

Kevin Nash: It's one thing to hear these things from Hunter when I returned two years ago Shawn, but I'll be damned if I'm going to hear these kind of insults from the likes of you. I'm pretty sure that last time we faced I Jackknifed you hard onto the ground, or something. The point is Shawn that you can talk the talk in my face, but I highly doubt that you can walk the walk. I may be old my friend, but I am sure as hell not crippled unlike you, and I can still take a hit or two. As a matter of fact if you were to kick me in the teeth as you claimed that you were going to, then I'd rather you do it now, so you arn't wasting my time conducting false threats. Of course you're probably not man enough to do that Shawn, because you know that deep down inside that you want to become friends with us still, but we won't allow that. You tried to take the spotlight from us when the nWo reformed in the WWE back in 2002, and we will not stand for this kind of crap again. Test us and you will feel the burn, and that is no threat Shawn, that's a promise.

Michaels backs away a few steps and looks at Kevin Nash, then Scott Hall, then back to Kevin Nash as he raises his mic up.

Michaels: You think that I tried to steal the spotlight back then Kevin? Uh-uh I KNOW that I stole the spotlight! The crowd loved me back then and the crowd loves me now! As a matter of fact I'm pretty sure that if we were in a popularity contest I would soundly defeat the both of you combined easily! I was shocked at first when you two came down here a moment ago and claimed that you wanted to leave your mark on me, but now it makes sense actually. You see you two were always known for your brawn and your coolness, but I was the brains of the group. I was the brains of the nWo, I was the brains of D-Generation X, heck I was even the brains of the The Rockers with good old Marty. So don't try and tell me that I tried to steal the spotlight from you guys, because let me tell you that the spotlight was never there. I'm enjoying on who I am and I have no intentions on being the man that I used to be, a coward who always ran behind Kevin Nash when things went bad. Na-ah, not this time Big Kev, because I can fight my own battles now, and if you want a fight with me, then bring it on.

Kevin Nash and Scott Hall both look at each other before nodding.

Scott Hall: Sounds like a good idea.

Both Nash and Hall drop their mics as they charge and knock down Michaels, then proceed to stomp on Michaels as he tries and fights back but Nash holds him down as Hall is landing several punches to Michaels. Michaels manages to roll away towards the ropes but Nash grabs a hold of him and drags him to the center of the ring, then lifts him up as he throws Michaels in Hall's direction, Hall getting Michaels into the powerbomb position. The fans are booing loudly now as Hall is signalling for the Razor's Edge but Michaels pushes Hall away as he goes for a Sweet Chin Music to Nash, but Nash catches him by the foot. Michael's is hopping on one foot and looks directly at Nash but Hall runs up behind Michaels and clothesine Michaels at the back of the leg, knocking him back to the ground. Michaels is holding onto his leg but Hall picks him up and throws him to Kevin Nash, Nash getting Michaels into the powerbomb position himself as the fans are screaming at Kevin not to do it. Kevin looks into the crowd and doesn't even break a sweat as he lifts Michaels up and nails a Jacknife to Michaels! Michaels looks knocked out as Hall and Nash stand over Michaels with grins. Nash then picks up the mic and begins to speak into it.

Nash: This is just the beginning of your demise Shawn, but for today we'll end the beating right here, since you're obviously not used to getting your ass kicked by us. But we will continue this on another day, and right then we'll leave a great big mark right on your face. Things change Shawn, remember that.

Nash drops the mic as him and Hall leave the ring as they walk up the ramp, ignoring any fans that are screaming at them. Hall and Nash don't even have the curtosy of looking back at the damage that they have done to Shawn Michaels.



Backstage Interview

Josh Matthews is seen backstage with Chrisitan as he's ready to begin his second interview for the night.

Josh Matthews: So Christian, tonight you're about to go to the ring and face off against the man who may decide you fate for Wrestlemania, Paul Heyman. What are your thoughts for entering that ring with a man like Paul Heyman, someone that's going to threaten you on your road to Wrestlemania?

Chrisitan: Well Josh first off let me tell you that Paul Heyman doesn't scare me one bit. That man can wear a Jason Mask while weilding a butcher knife and he would see be less frightening then the Care Bears. He goes around the ring and he first states that I'm not a threat, and now suddenly I'm public enemy number 1. Well I laugh whenever his name is mentioned around me, and I think that I can handle being around him just fine, you know if I don't die from laughing. I expected that there would be many bumps on my road to Wrestlemania, and I figured that Paul Heyman would have something to do with it, but I can honestly say that I'm prepared to hear the worst that Heyman has to say. All I can say to Heyman is that if you want me, then you can come get me.

Christian turns to the side as Chris Jericho pops up on the camera, not looking too pleased.

Chris Jericho: Oh no, heaven forbid that Christian won't be prepared for Heyman and his evil band of maniacs. Look junior, everyone knows that Heyman is the biggest turd of them all, and he will do everything in his power to stop you from your goals. We KNOW that Heyman can bring out the worst in himself, but to actually go against him and live to tell the tale, well that's something completely different, and I don't think that you have the balls to take him head on, Christian.

Christian: See that would be interesting to hear if you would've beated me last week on RAW, but you failed to do that. You tried to bury me in your own words and I ended up beating you in the middle of that ring. So really you can't say anything to me about not having any balls to do something, because I had to balls to accept your challange and I beat you one on one, now anything you say about me will make you look like an asshole. So addios man, and good luck to whatever you'll do in the near future.

Christian leaves the camera shot as Jericho's face turns beet red from Christian's insults.

In ring Promo


Justin Roberts: Ladies and Gentleman, please welcome Paul Heyman!

Paul Heyman enters on stage and has a concerned look on his face as he begins to walk down towards the ring. The fans are booing really loudly as Heyman enters the ring and looks around in the ring, taking a deep breath before lifting up his microphone and is ready to take on Christian.

Paul Heyman: Ladies and gentleman, my name is Paul Heyman and tonight I will be addressing a few issues concering Christian's title shot at Wrestlemania, and who he will be facing against. Christian, I am a buisnessman and I would stand here and negociate on who will be facing you at Wrestlemania, and who will be defending the WWE Championship. Now obviously we're going in a rough patch right now between Batista and CM Punk regarding the title, but rest assured that anyone on my three Guys would be more than willing to face you man to man in this very ring at Wrestlemania XXX, and will defeat you. I know you don't want to hear that, but it's the truth, and that is my fair warning to you right now. So before I go on and explain my proposition to you, I want you to come down in the ring and look at me dead in the eye and tell me that you're willing to go with this, because I feel that what I am about to propose is fair and plausible.

Christian's theme music hits and the fans go wild for Christian. Christian walks on stage and poses to the crowd before walking down the ring, slapping several hands as he enters the ring and grabs a mic, then looks at Paul Heyman with a grin.

Christian: Alright Heyman, let's hear what you have to say first then I'll agree to your little terms. I feel like you're a man that could be somewhat trusted. But then again maybe not, maybe I should just walk away right now and not fall for your stupid games. The smart thing to do right now is to talk away and play it by ear, because I know one thing for sure is that I'm guaranteed that match at Wrestlemania, and there is nothing that you can do in your power to strip me of that opportunity. Now that is what I should do Paul, but that's not what I'm going to do. This 'proposition' that you have has tickled my fancy, and I'm interested in what you have to say for yourself and on behalf of your clients. But I'm only giving you once chance not to try and screw around with my head before all bets are off, do you understand me Paul?

Heyman: Why thank you Christian, yes I understand you. What I am about the propose to you is very simple and as I just said, sounds agreeable. What I am propose to you is that at the Elimination Chamber we will have a match between the #1 Contender for the WWE Championship, you, and the WWE Champion Batista. Now I know what you're thinking, and that you think that I'm proposing that we have the title match at Elimination Chamber but that's where I'm getting at all. Since I can have any one of my guys to defend the title at Wrestlemania, why don't we make things more interesting to see who gets to pick the person to defend the title at Wrestlemania. So my official proposition is this: If you win the match at Elimination Chamber between you and Batista, then YOU will get to choose which member of my Guys you will face at Wrestlemania. However if Batista wins the match, then I get to pick which one of my Guys you will wrestle for the WWE Championship. Pretty simple, right? So what's your answer?

Christian looks down and considers it as Heyman is smiling, but Curtis Axel runs into the ring as the crowd begins to boo loudly as Axel charges at Christian from behind with a clothesline, but Christian ducks down as Curtis Axel lands a clothesline onto Paul Heyman instead! Axel looks momentarly confused as Christian comes up from behind him and nails the Killswitch onto Axel! The fans pop loudly as Christian laughs and picks up the microphone.

Christian: Alright you son of a bitch, I accept your challange for the Elimination Chamber! And don't think that you can pull any of this crap then, because I won't fall for it!

Christian exits the ring as both men inside are still down.

Punk looks worried as Cena suddenly charges Punk and tackles him to the ground, then starts a hail of punches to Punk, then gets up and nails a quick stomp before bringing him towards the corner and smashing his face onto the top turnbuckle, then doing it again before picking him up and places him onto the top turnbuckle facing away from Cena. Cena then poses to the crowd as he steps onto the second set of ropes and quickly hits CM Punk with the back drop! Punk is holding the back of his head as Cena instanly gets up and poses to the crowd again as he exits the ring and looks under the ring for yet another weapon, then grabs a barbed wire 2x4 as he throws it inside the ring. Cena then grabs the top of the steel steps nearby as well as he throws that inside as well. Cena then enters the ring as he grabs the 2x4 and holds it up in the air, then points it towards Punk as Punk starts to shake his head as he begs Cena for forgiveness as Cena smiles, then shake his head as he runs at Punk with the 2x4 but Punk quickly exits the ring. The crowd starts to boo loudly as Punk tries to escape the cage by kicking the door down, but is unable to as Cena comes up from behind him and nabs Punk with the 2x4, scraping the barbed wire onto his forehead to gush out more blood!


Cole: CM Punk was trying to quit the match and that thug Cena just continues the beating. This is sickening!

King: it's called Hell in a Cell for a reason Cole, it's not designed to be escaped easily.


Cena drops Punk to the ground as Punk is holding onto his head as blood is gushing out of his forehead. Cena then lifts the 2x4 as Punk goes onto his back as Cena smashes the 2x4 on Punk's back! Punk starts screaming as he runs away while holding onto his back and enters the ring. Cena drops the 2x4 in barbed wire as he enters the ring and walks up to Cena. Punk sits up as he briefly looks at Cena but Cena is taking none of it as he boots Punk to the ground, Punk laying down as Cena moves the steps to the center of the ring, then grabs Punk's head as he smashes it onto the steel steps. Punk is on all fours now as Cena climbs the ropes to the top turnbuckle as Punk slowly makes it back onto his feet, Cena though jumps off the ropes and nails Punk with the bulldog onto the steel steps! A sickening thud is heard as Punk is down for the count. The fans pop loudly as Cena gets Punk onto his shoulders an point to the steel steps as he turns Punk towards the steps, Cena nailing the Attitude Adjustment on the steel steps! Punk is arched around the steel steps as Cena goes down for the cover...

CM PUNK KICKS OUT!! The fans are in shock as Punk is keeping his arm up, Cena looking complelely puzzled as he thought for sure that Punk would have not been able to kick out of that. Punk lays down breathing hard as Cena exits the ring as he looks under the ring by the set table as he pulls out a second table! Cena sighs as he lifts the table onto the first table as he pulls up the legs, then sets the second table on top of the first one then re-enters the ring again. Cena then walks up to Punk who is still laying down backfirst on the steps in the middle of the ring as he picks Punk up and lifts him onto the top turnbuckle, then postions him so Punk is facing the tables at ringside. The crowd is loving the moment as Cena steps onto the apron and climbs onto the ropes, then grabs Punk's tights as he goes for a superplex onto the table but Punk is fighting it. Cena tries to pull on Punk again but Punk fights it some more, this time throwing Cena back inside the ring. Punk takes a quick breather as Cena gets back onto his feet and Punk jumps off the ropes and lands onto Cena with a diving clothesline!


Cole: I knew Punk would find a way out of this! He's fighting hard to keep that title in his name!

King: Don't forget Cole that the title belongs to Batista, not CM Punk.


Punk starts to laugh as he wipes blood from his face as he watches Cena get back up to his feet, then grabs the steps as he runs at Cena and hits him square in the face with it! Cena crashes to the mat as Punk drops the steps right in front of Cena, then lifts him up as he walks Cena on top of the steel steps, then nails a DDT onto them! The crowd boos as Cena is down on the steps, then rolls away as he's holding his head in pain. Punk then stomps on Cena as Cena gets kicked out of the ring and falls onto the ground. Punk exits the ring as well and grabs the 2x4 barbed wire nearby and he rams the end of it to Cena's face and holds it in place as Cena screams in agony. Punk releases the barbed wire off of Cena's face, but then smashes it onto Cena's torso as Cena tries to roll away but has no room to, blood now pouring from his skin. Punk notices this and smiles to himself as he drops the barbed wired 2x4 and grabs a hold of Cena and throws him inside the ring. Punk walks around the corner and grabs the good steel chair as he enters the ring holding the chair.


Cole: Punk is going to go all haywire with that chair. Cena has no chance for survival here.


Punk walks in the ring as he eyes Cena trying to get up using the ropes for assitance. Punk then prepares himself for an attack with the chair as Cena slowly turns around to face Punk, CM Punk running up to Cena as he cracks the chair to Cena's skull! Cena crashes to the canvas with full contact as the fans start to boo at Punk, Punk not really caring as he walks up to the downed Cena and smashes the chair to Cena's back several times befor dropping the chair to the mat. Punk then picks up Cena and brings him near where the steps are as he lifts Cena onto Punk's shoulders, then nails the GTS onto Cena as Cena collaspes onto the steps! Punk then goes down on Cena and locks in the Anaconda Vice while on the steel steps!


Bradshaw: CM Punk has the Anaconda Vice held in on Cena! This could be it right now!


Cena still has enough energy to move around as Punk has Cena's neck trapped while on top of the steel steps. Cena however his losing alot of his momentum as he's slowly bleeding out, and the Anaconda Vice is definitely not helping out. Cena tries to fight off Punk from the submission hold but Punk is not letting go, wanting to win the match right now. Cena starts to moves his arms and legs around as he tries to grab onto something nearby to use but Punk has Cena dead center in the ring, and nothing is nearby to help Cena escape from the hold. Cena then starts to rock Punk around as Punk tries to hold onto Cena but loses balance as he falls off the steps and gets into an awkward position, being forced to get go of Cena. Cena quickly rolls away from Punk as he tries to control the situation by checking himself as Punk shakes his head, then gets up as he sees Cena struggling to fight. Cena gets on both feet but Punk pushes Cena to the corner nearby and proceeds to nail some roundhouse kicks to Cena's side, then backs up a few paces before running up to Cena and executes a flying knee strike to Cena's face! Punk backs up as Cena groggily walks up to Cena, Punk the tossing Cena over his back and hits a back body drop onto the steel steps!


King: Oh man both men are beating each other to a pulp here tonight ladies and gentleman. I don't think either men are able to participate in the Elimination Chamber qualifers in their coming matches!


Cena starts to cry out in pain as Punk pushes the steel steps by the ropes to make room in the ring. Cena gets on both knees as he holds onto his back in pain but Punk approaches him and lands a forearm smash that brings Cena back on all fours. Punk then drags Cena in the center of the ring and places him on his back, runs and bounces off the ropes as he nails a knee drop onto Cena's skull! Cena rolls around while holding onto his head as Punk pushes Cena to the ropes and places his head on the middle set, then proceeds to choke Cena with the ropes! Cena struggles to get out but Punk refuses to let go, the fans not happy with Punk's actions. Punk finally releases Cena from the choke as Cena continues to hang over the ropes, trying to catch his breath from the choke that Punk has Cena in. Punk is still bleeding from the barbed wire shot as he picks up Cena and brings him to the center of the ring, lifts him on his shoulders as he goes for the GTS, taunting the crowd before he does it. Punk though waits too long as Cena slips out of the GTS and pushes Punk towards the ropes, Punk looking shocked as the crowd pop loudly!


King: Cena's got the fire back in his eyes! Things could get interesting!


Punk shakes his head as Cena, face fully red from the blood, shakes his head as Punk tries to go for a charge but Cena hits Punk with the flying shoulder block, Punk gets up again but only gets another flyying shoulder block from Cena. Punk then gets back up again as he goes for a punch but Cena ducks it and hits a proto-plex onto CM Punk! Cena then raises his hand as he signals for the 5 Knuckle Shuffle to Punk, taunting Punk with his signature pose before running towards the ropes then bounces back, then drops his fist to the ground as he nails the 5 Knuckle Shuffle onto Punk! Cena looks pumped as he looks down at Punk then gets him onto his feet, then lifts him up on the shoulders as Punk looks unconcious, Cena then nailing the Attitude Adjustment dead center in the ring! The fans explode as Cena looks down at Punk but picks him up again and gets him onto his shoulders for a second time. Cena then points to the double stacked tables that are at ringside as the fans go nuts, Cena walking Punk towards the ropes as the throws Punk outside with the Attitude Adjustment onto the tables! The roof explodes from the pop that the fans gave as Cena backs up and takes a breather from the action, but the camera man that's inside the structure takes off his hat and shirt as it reveals to be Batista, Batista then goes inside as he ambushes Cena from behind with a clotheesline , the crowd now pissed off.


Bradshaw: Wait how did Batista get past the hell in a cell structure? He's ruining the whole match!


Batista looks down at Cena with complete anger as he forefully picks up Cena and nails a Spinebuster to the damaged Cena in the middle of the ring. The crowd is booing loudly at Batista as Cena is down on the mat, Batista then punching Cena several times on the ground before he moves Cena away as he drags the steel steps towards the middle of the ring. Batista has a nasty look on his face as he picks up Cena and nails another Spinebuster, this time onto the steel steps! Cena has his back arched on the steps as the crowd is firing off massive amounts of heat to Batista for ruining the match. Batista yells shut up to the crowd as he picks up Cena once again, this time getting him into the powerbomb position, lifts him up and nails the Batista Bomb onto the steps! Cena looks like that he's barely breathing but Batista isn't done. He moves Cena off the steps as he lays Cena down on his back, then lifts the stairs up, has it over Cena's head as he smashes it onto Cena's chest! Cena turrns around and is coughing while spitting out blood, Batista looking somewhat satisfied. Punk meanwhile crawls back into the ring as Batista drags Punk and places him on top of Cena, then referee looking disgusted but has to go for the count...


King: This is sickening...

Winner at 26:32 via Pinfall and still WWE Champion, CM PUNK!

The crowd is booing extremly loudly now as Batista looks down at Cena, as Punk rolls away from Cena and tries to catch his breath as well, both men in a bloody mess. Batista looks as the referee tries to present Punk with the WWE Title but Batista snatches it away, claiming that the belt is his. Batista then holds the belt high as EMT's are entering the ring as they look after Cena, Batista leaving Punk behind as he exits the cell and shows off his prized possession, the crowd extremly pissed off that Batista denied Cena of the belt. Punk raises his head up and stares at Batista as Batista is on the stage now, posing towards the crowd as the ending credits pop up, the show ending with Punk back on his feet as an EMT is checking up on him, while a stretcher is being placed for Cena to get on.

[Nate]

Update time!

I visited my parents this week since I had a few days off work and of course I forgot my laptop with my content! So Smackdown will be posted whenever. Also I may end up posting less in this thread only because I'm going to be a writer for the E-fed here on the forums (seriously if you've considered joining, please do so. It's tons of fun!)

 

[Troy]

Finally caught up on the thread.

Strong promo to open RAW, like the interaction between Bastista and Punk and the dissension in the ranks of the group. Also enjoyed Bryan giving a pep talk to the team, I like the team cheer but it would have been even better if you had Bryan ask for a team hug.

Nice match between Sheamus and Ziggler, enjoyed seeing Sheamus win by submission good to mix things up a bit.

Good use of Kane Intrigued by what you will do with him going forward after he chokeslamed Orton and then went off with Summer Rae (who could blame him )

Epic 8 man tag. Quality finish with Bourne and Bryan both hitting finishers from the top rope for the double pin. Insane post match from all the tag teams, 8 tag teams brawling trying to get the ascendancy before the PPV and a good way to end it with The Shield standing tall with the belts.

Cool seeing the NWO return. I was wondering where you were going with HBK during that promo and I liked what you did with Nash hitting the Jacknife.

The stipulation for Christian's match at EC is a little confusing, bit odd that he gets a title shot either way at WM but I will withold judgement and will see how it plays out first.

This is the show that keeps on giving, HIAC mainevent for the WWE title. Good match and again I liked your finish, plenty of heel heat for Heyman's guys and makes them look unbeatable.

Great read again, you clearly put so much effort into this and it shows. Sad to read that you will be doing this less but I am glad that it is due to you helping out UWF. Maybe you could cut back on the number of matches on each card or the length of the matches to keep the BTB going but without taking up too much of your time.

 

[Nate]

Thanks Troy! Yeah I'll probably take your advice and shorten some of the matches on the cards (at least the ones on RAW and Smackdown anyways), only because I hate to abandon this thread before I even hit Wrestlemania. Also the Christian/Batista stips may seem a bit confusing but will make much more sense on RAW after the PPV. Still the end result will be a love it or hate it kinda thing, unless if I change my mind and pull a swerve of some sort. lol

 

[Bully Ray]

I agree with Troy you should shorten some of the matches as it takes a lot of time, this time of match writing is only needed when writing PPV matches or stipulated matches.

That Raw preview looks pretty sweet, Orton v Punk and Cena v Fandango, two good matches. I see Cena coming and winning (casual Cena) but hey it's your thread and I think and I want Punk to beat Orton even though Orton's a talented guy.

Good luck with Raw and I can't wait.

 

[Nate]

Alright, on the count of that I happen to lost my show and don't feel like re-writing it I'm going to type out my show outline with some extra details. So sorry about this guys, I'll make it up to you when the PPV happens. Also note that this is NOT the new format for my shows, this was just written up so I can continue the BTB thread without waiting another week...

In-Ring Promo

Cody Rhodes enters the stage and complains about how Paul Heyman hasn't given him anything in return for being part of his conspiracy. He informs the crowd that Heyman has given every superstar either a title shot or a big payoff of some sort but not him and he wants somebody to notice this. Christian enters on stage and basically tells him to shut up, and nobody is paying attention to him because he's being a whiney bitch. Rhodes isn't impressed and says he can do more for the group, even taking out the number one contender for the WWE Champion. Chrisitan laughs it off but realizes that he's being serious, so they agree to have a match later on tonight.

Backstage Segment

My photobucket account is back! That means match banners are back!!


Confirmed for RAW

Opening Contest: Open Battle Royal Briefcase-on-a-pole Match for the final slot in the Elimination Chamber:

For the past two weeks we have witnessed 4 different superstars enter the match to earn their chance to enter the Elimination Chamber match for Kane's World Heavyweight Championship. So far Ryback, Curtis Axel, Fandango and Randy Orton have all entered the elimination chamber by defeating their respective opponents, but now one final slot is avaliable. William Regal mentioned earlier that the final contestant will be determined in an open battle royal match, but to win you would have to outdo everyone else in the ring to grab the briefcase that is standing on top of the pole. With the match being open to any WWE Superstar, it's no telling which man will win the match!


The Usos vs The Latin Terror

Last week on Smackdown The Usos were in the middle of a conversation with the Big Show until the three got confronted by The Latin Terror. Homicide and Alberto Del Rio starting insulting the Usos stating that they're not championship material. Since neither man has won the match on Smackdown, General Manger of RAW William Regal has decided to place these two teams against each other to settle their differences. Who will come out on top? Find out next week on RAW!


Daniel Bryan vs The Miz

Both men were part of their respective teams on Smackdown during the 8 Team Turnmoil Match but neither team has won the bout. Daniel Bryan and Jack Swagger has some bad blood between them and would love to settle their differences tonight but William Regal has decided that they need to cool down after their disappointing loss on Smackdown, so he's pitting Daniel Bryan against The Miz instead. Expect Mark Henry and Jack Swagger to be at ringside to support their partners as the two former tag team members duke it out on RAW!


No Disqualification: Fandango vs Ryback

Fandango has entered the Elimination Chamber after John Cena was still in the hospital from last week on RAW. Fandango was not thrilled to be part of the match, especially now that Kane has his chance to get a hold of the man who made a fool out of him at the Royal Rumble. After Fandango tried to bail from Smackdown Ryback showed up and gave him a beating. Now Fandango has personally asked to take on Ryback on RAW, but William Regal has called his bluff for a fair fight so he made his and Ryback's match a No Disqualification match. Both men are entering the Eliminaton Chamber match, now which one will gain the upper advantage over the other? Find out on RAW!


Main Event: Non-title Match: Batista vs Sheamus

A battle of the beasts! Batista has been going strong as of lately, especially when his title is being put on the line. WWE Champion Batista will get one of his biggest challanges in his career when he goes to war with the Celtic Warrior Sheamus. Sheamus is set to face off against the United States Champion Rene Dupree, and if he can beat Batista on RAW then maybe he can easily beat Rene Dupree at Elimination Chamber, but of course that's easier said then done!


Also appearing on the show:

Christian will address Paul Heyman and give him his answer on whether he wants to go through with his match at Elimination Chamber


The nWo, including Kevin Nash, Scott Hall and Booker T, will tell the WWE Universe what their plans are for Elimination Chamber, and what they plan on doing for Wrestlemania.


Brock Lesnar is set to make an apperance, he will address the WWE Universe what he's feeling and what he plans on doing for his future.

And more!​

This may look like a lackluster card, but I'm setting it up for a Super RAW next week!

 

[Troy]

As mentioned in other threads I am using today to catch up with all the BTBs

Smackdown: Great way to add Fandango into the Elimination Chamber match, gives him so much heel heat. I like that you are using Ryback as a face as well, suits him so much better. Surprised to see Orton go over Punk, wonder where that leaves Punk for the PPV. Wow, did not expect that ending in the tag team main event. I was a bit worried that a thrown together team like Henry and Bryan might win but was happy when Air Boom won the match, or so I thought. Great way to use NWO and I am sure we will hear more from Air Boom going forward.

RAW should be good, looking forward to the tag team match. Like that you are utilising so many tag teams and actually giving them plenty of storylines. Will the Battle Royal for the last spot in the Elimination Chamber be on this RAW or the week after?

 

[Nate]

This one coming up. Week Four will basically be used to hype up the elimination chamber match, rustle up some feathers and whatnot (as well as adding any inevitable last minute opening matches). Now that the super edition of Anarchy is done and over with I can get on with finishing this show and posting it!

 

[Troy]

Sounds good. Wondering who will get that final Chamber spot based on what you have posted on the shows so far.
