This isn't going to be too detailed...but I might add to it later. I'll just focus on the Raw main event for now.
On Raw, I would have Orton continually duck Jericho, and refuse to defend the belt against someone who was fired two years ago. Orton would make a deal that if Jericho pinned Orton in a non title tag team match at Armaggedon, he would get a future title shot. Regal's music hits, he doesn't appreciate Orton making matches but he does like the idea. He would also like to introduce their tag team partners. Orton's partner will be Mr. Kennedy and Jerico's partner will be none other than Shawn Michaels.
Armaggedon
Orton/Kennedy vs Jericho/HBK
HBK and Jericho dominate. Orton, well aware of the stipulation, tags out to Kennedy everytime Jericho enters the ring. Kennedy walks out on Orton. He has had enough. Orton tries to run off but is chased down by Jericho and thrown back in the ring. Jericho hits the lionsault on Orton. 1...2...HBK comes in and pulls Jericho off Orton. Jericho stands up and pushes HBK. HBK hits Sweet Chin Music on Jericho. HBK Turns around...RKO on Michaels. Orton wins by pinfall at 20:34.
Orton comes out the next Monday to gloat. Since none of the top dogs on Raw could beat him, he says he isnt going to be wrestling at the Rumble, but will be scouting the competition or lack thereof. Regals music hits. There is no way the WWE champ is going to be out of action on one of the biggest PPV's of the year. The first match at the Rumble will be Michaels vs Jericho with the winner going on to battle Orton for the title and the loser being the first entrant into the Royal Rumble main event. The next several weeks, HBK and Jericho take turns sending a message to Orton.
