No Contest
Jim Ross: Kane, It's Kane!!
King: What the hell is he doing here. I thought he was arrested for running over Chavo Guerrero...
(Kane gets on the mic...)
Kane: Someone has done something very very foolish. Trying to take out Chavo Guerrero; I couldn't care less but trying to fit me up for it!! When I find out who it is they are going to wish that they are lying where Chavo is now..
(As Kane begins his evil laugh and huge amount of police and security take Kane out of the arena in cuffs...)
Jim Ross: It seems Kane is claiming his innonence but I know more than most what he is capable of..
(General Manager Eric Bischoff is alongside his nephew Nick when William Regal still in drag comes into the office..)
Regal: What the bloody hell was that Bischoff. Not only to you force to behave like that idiot Burchill you then allow that cretin Kane to nearly kill me...
Eric Bischoff: Chill out William. Kane has been give bail but as of now is not allowed within 200 yards of any WWE show..
Regal: It's not just that. I have not been in this business for years to wear high heels and follow a stupid pirate around. I QUIT!!

Benjamin springs up to the second rope and belly to belly suplexes Flair off the top. Benjamin hits Flair with the T-Bone suplex before locking in the Anklelock. Flair cannot reach the ropes but the dirtiest player in the game pulls down the referee and makes him hit the canvas pretty hard. This forces Benjamin to break the hold.

Flair drives the sledgehammer into the face of the champion before making the cover as the referee comes round. 1..2..Thr..Benjamin kicks out.

King: I can’t believe it. Jeff Hardy is back in the WWE…
(Matt Hardy then looks at Jeff before driving the chair into his brother’s skull. Matt then leaves with his brother busted open in the ring…)

King: It was a tragedy but we’re professionals…
JR: That we are King. Chavo has been taken to a nearby medical centre and we will have an update on his condition as soon as we can. Like King said we are professional and the show must go on.

(Shelton is cut off as the music of RVD hits and Mr. Monday Night appears on the big screen.)
RVD: Calm down, Benji. Sure I'm out for a while but that gives me a chance to really think about what I am gonna to you. But don't think you'll have a night off at Fully Loaded because thanks to new General Manager Eric Bischoff, I have been selected to hand pick my replacement..

Cool, brought it over to EWB now, huh JSV? Well, I look forward to more at both EWB and PWF.
-
-Bad thing now, you seem to make a lot of changes right from the start, which is maybe not such a good idea, it's well pulled off and all, but from the first show you've got a new World Champ, new Intercontinental champ, etc.
-I personally like Val Venis winning the No1 Contendership, but a tad unrealistic as he is/was (depending whether he's still on WWE *shrugs*) recieveing little to no push on Heat, while Matt Hardy was being hyped on Smackdown.

MONDAY 1ST MAY 2006
Jim Ross: Welcome, Ladies and Gentlemen. I'm Jim Ross alongside Jerry 'The King' Lawler and what a night we have in store tonight and let's get right into the action as Matt Hardy and Val Venis tie up...

Jim Ross: What an impressive victory from Val Venis who is aiming to revitalise his carrer with the United States title...
(Joey Styles is standing with Rob Van Dam..)
Styles: RVD, last night at Backlash. Shelton Benjamin won your Money In The Bank shot at the Heavyweight Title what are your thoughts..
RVD: First of all. Benjamin didn't win it. He and Haas stole. My thoughts? You and me go way back and you have seen what I can do when pushed. This is only a delay before Mr. Monday Night.....R........V.......D, goes on to become World Heavyweight Champion....
(RVD struts off...)
JR: A message from RVD to Benjamin and infact Rey Mysterio there. And King what are your thoughts on the Draft that took place earlier today...
King: You know what JR, it was fixed. Raw lost Edge, Triple and John Cena and gained Steven Richards and some stupid Pirate...
JR: I'm not sure about that but never the less up next that so-called Pirate teams up with Lady Regal to take on JBL and Orlando Jordan....
World Tag Team Championship No.1 Contenders Match
JBL and Orlando Jordan vs. Paul Birchall and Lady Regal
...JBL and Jordan isolate Regal with a series of double team moves. As the pair are working Birchall tries to break it up and the referee holds him back. This allows Regal to pull out his brass knucks and with a swift left hook knocks out Jordan. JBL goes for the Clothesline From Hell but Regal ducks only for JBL to connect for a second time. JBL goes for the cover but didn't see Birchall make a blind tag. Birchall hits a shoulder breaker before connecting with a Standing Shooting Star Press. A dazed JBL walks straight into C4 from Birchall. 1..2..3!!
Winners by Pinfall: Paul Birchall and Lady Regal
King: I don't believe it, not only does Regal have to continue to dress as a wench but now he and Birchall have a shot at the World Tag Team Champions..
JR: You know what they say: Anything can happen in the WWE.
(After the match, JBL looks at a bemused Orlando Jordan before hitting him with a Clothesline From Heel)
(The cameras show 'The Coach' walking into Vince's office..)
Coach: You wanted to see me?
Vince: Yes, Coach. You see with Smackdown having Judgement Day this month and their return of the famous King Of The Ring. I feel that Raw may be losing it's 'premier' brand status. So I'm going to bring back my own WWE tradition. On Sunday 21st May 2006. Raw will exclusively host Fully Loaded live on pay-per-view...
**COMMERCIAL BREAK**
(Shelton Benjamin is with Charlie Haas in the ring..)
Benjamin: The playa is finally at the top. After being held back Shelton Benjamin is the next World Heavyweight Champion. I couldn't do it alone. May thanks to Mr. Haas for his support. And to show you how grateful I am here....

Jim Ross: That son of a bitch may have seriously injured the new Intercontinental Champion..
King: I like this new attitude of Shelton..
Jim Ross: You would King. Well know we must turn our attention to Raw's newest acquistion: World Heavyweight Champion: Rey Mysterio
(Advert for Raw's May PPV airs)(Rey Mysterio is in the ring..)
Mysterio: I have heard recently that many people feel that I cashed in on Eddie Guerrero's death to kick start my career. Whether you believe that or not the fact remains that I am World Heavyweight Champion and I deserve to be just as much as any other superstar in the WWE Raw locker. So to prove it, I am issuing an open challenge to any Raw superstar for a title match right here, right now....

Following Wrestlemania 22, Vince McMahon announced that on a RAW and Smackdown supershow after Raw’s Backlash yet another draft lottery would take place. With 8 superstars switching.
RAW presents WWE Backlash:
Women’s Championship
Mickie James defeated Trish Status.
Carlito defeated Chris Masters
Carlito did not break the masterlock just avoided it before a cheeky low blow and roll up for the win.
The McMahon’s defeated Shaun Michaels and God.
In the most Un-PC WWE moment to date. A man dressed as God came to the ring but turned on HBK and hit a Pedrigree before being revealed as Triple H. After the match HBK resigns.
Kane defeated Big Show via disqualification.
Big Show showed Kane that he can be just as nasty as him. Show destroyed the Big Red Machine with the ringsteps with Kane leaving the arena on a streacher.
Money In The Bank and Intercontinental Championship
Shelton Benjamin defeated Rob Van Dam
RVD was up top with seemingly the match won when Charlie Haas’s interference allowed Benjamin to pick up the win with ‘The World’s Greatest Tag Team’ reunited.
WWE Championship
Edge defeated Triple H and John Cena
With the help of Lita Edge became two-time champion
]Monday 1st May 2006: WWE Draft
In the 3 first draws it looked as if Raw was in trouble. John Cena, Edge and Mickie James went to Smackdown taking the WWE and Women’s title. In exchange Raw acquired William Regal, the injured Hardcore Holly and Paul Birchall.
Things went from bad to worse for Raw with Matt Hardy and Steven Richards being traded for Trish Stratus and Triple H.
When the final three of Umaga(w/ Armando Alejandro Estrada), Viscera and Chris Masters were drafted to Smackdown it seems Raw finally had a bit of luck and when the United States Champion JBL and Orlando Jordan came out things were still looking bleak for Raw until the final draft was revealed as World Heavyweight Champion: Rey Mysterio and saved what had been a truly awful night for Raw.

Hey (don't really post here alot but..) I liked the episode (never seena pre-2005 Dr Who BTW) but it was great final to see an angry 10th Doctor as well as setting Martha up for next week. My fav bit is that The Doctor stills thinks he's right and the face of boe is wrong
