RAW IS WAR NEWS

Chris Benoit has told officals that he is not happy having to have a program with Chris Masters. While everyone backstage know Benoit's ability and potential they feel giving him a slight "de-push" will make his next title run more meaningful. Backstage offical are not at all happy with Benoit's unwillingness to work with younger talent so that the youngsters can establish themselves in their own right

Expect to see more of a rift develop between HHH and Ric Flair. Officals want to have a HHH vs Flair match in the future. But the question remains: Do they do a slow build and blow it off at Wrestlemania 22 or do they rush it for Summerslam???

What is in store for Lita's character??? Now that she was "divorced" so to speak from Kane last night, will she concentrate on getting the Women's Championship or will she enlist help to battle her former husband????

Ric Flair is getting ready for his title match tonight against Batista. He is doing push ups as HHH is looking on. HHH has all the confidence in the world in Flair.

Flair looks kinda upset at that thought. Flair tells HHH that he will soften Batista up. But, he is going to soften Dave up for himself, and Flair will be Styling and Profiling as the World Champ.

"DAMN IT RIC!!! WE HAVE TO BE ON THE SAME PAGE. YOU SOFTEN HIM UP FOR ME!!!!"

"Hunter, YOU'D BE A DAMN FOOL TO THINK I WON'T TRY TO WIN TONIGHT!!"

"OK, but if you win tonight, YOU WILL LAY DOWN FOR ME NEXT WEEK!!!! THIS IS ABOUT ME DAMN IT!!! NOT YOU RIC, IT IS ALL ABOUT THE GAME!!!" HHH leaves.

The camera stays on Flair. "Your're right, it's all about the game and how you play HIM. Ric Flair.......The World Heavy Weight Champion.......Woooooooo!!!!!"

Yet you are continuing to sin and continuing to forgive. You hold steadfast in your Christain beliefs, but where was your Christain God when I took you out of the triple threat last week???And where will you false prophet be when I unleash a Holy Jihad all over your sinful soul????

Then I would challenge you to a streetfight because I could never.....EVER beat you fair and sqaure. I would try to beat you with a pole, and then when you got done beating my ass, I'd stick the pole up my ass!!!" The midget then begins doing all of Jericho's mannerisms.

MAIN EVENT FOR JUDGEMENT DAY ANNOUNCED

Christian's music hits. Christian is making his way down to the ring with a piece of paper in his hands. Christian says that the piece of paper he is holding is a direct order from the CEO Vince Mcmahon and the Board of Trustees. Mcmahon and the board have declared Christian to be the number one contender for the WWE Championship. Mcmahon and the board know a ratings bonanza when they see one. They know just the name Christian will get more buyrates, it will generate a media frenzy, and it will garner national headlines.

Teddy Long's music starts. He looks at the order. He shakes his head. Christian laughs,"Now who holds the power here Teddy??? Christain does. HAHAHAHAHAH!!! I WANT MY MATCH AT JUDGEMENT. NOW!!!!!! BOOK IT TEDDY!!!!" Teddy clears his throat,"I guess I have no choice but to......."

I AM A WRESTLING GOD DAMN IT!!!!!" Teddy is looking at both men trying to figure out what to do. Teddy shakes his head, "JBL has a point Christian he did secure the rematch clause in his contract." JBL screams,"YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I HAVE A POINT. CHRISTAN DOESNT DESERVE A TITLE SHOT!!!! I DO!!! I AM THE MOST DESERVING MAN TO GET THIS TITLE....."

Kurt Angle's music starts. YOU SUCK!! YOU SUCK!! Kurt is sporting some bandages around his head from the beating Booker T gave him last week. "Now just hard on a sec there Teddy!!!!!!

And I just WON the greatest Wrestlemania match EVER, when I made Shawn Micheals tap!!! There is nothing or no one who could stop me!!!! NOW GIVE ME THAT TITLE SHOT!!!!"

The lights in the building go off, and the Undetaker music starts. He doesn't say anything. His mere presence is convincing enough.

Teddy takes a few moments before he gets a smile,"It is true that Christan is the number one contender, and therefore will get a title shot against John Cena at Judgement Day in a match gauranteed to get buyrates!!!" Chirstan jumps up an down. Teddy continues,"Hold there playa, now I said that you would get a title shot, that is true, you are the number one contender.

CAN YOU DIG IT SUCKA!!!! Bookers music starts. Kurt Angle runs behind The Undertaker, who doesn't look amused. Booker doesn't do any of his wacky entrance moves. He doesn't play to the crowd at all. He just stares straight at Kurt Angle. Teddy is glad Booker came to his senses. Unfortunately, Teddy Long has to suspend Booker T from active wrestling until after Judgement Day. Now, Booker is allowed to be AT Smackdown, just not wrestle. This will allow Booker time to cool off. Booker must not physically assault anyone while on suspension, if he does, he will be FIRED ON THE SPOT. If Booker adheres to the stipulations of the suspension Teddy Long assures Booker that he will book Booker to fight Kurt Angle in the future. Angle is livid.

HBK & HHH DISCUSS THE TRIPLE THREAT

As, we start RAW, HBK makes his way down to the ring. It has been a long year for HBK. He lost to Edge at the Royal Rumble, and to Kurt Angle at Wrestlemania. HBK takes us back to Taboo Tyesday. He wants to thank the fans who voted for him, but feels he let them down. He brings up the fact that he hasn't had a title shot since Taboo Tuesday. When Shawn was younger, he thought he'd get a title shot every other week, but it's been almost a year since his last shot at a title. He is going to go into tonight's number one contender's triple threat match with everything he's got, and next week HBK will become the new World Heavyweight Champion.

HHH and Ric Flair make their way to the ring. HHH and HBK have traveled the roads together as friends, and they've almost killed themselves as enemies. But, throughout their tulmultous relationship HHH has always respected HBK. The Game respects the fact that HBK would do absolutely ANYTHING to become champion, just like HHH. HHH says that the world is filled with inoperbable truths. Everyone will die. Everyone is going to take a shit. And anytime someone looks to see the top three wrestlers in the industries history HHH, HBK, and Ric Flair will be there. No one else. HHH says he knows that it gnaws away at Shawn, when he sees our World Champion. HHH or HBK could easily beat Batista. HHH and HBK have more skills, more charisma, and damn sure more intestinal fortitude. HHH recomends that all three of them take out the Big Show, then HHH and HBK can fight it out over who will get the title shot next week. And if HBK helps out, HHH will soon not forget it, and HHH promises HBK a title shot, if HHH wins the match tonight.

Kane is being ignored by the single's champions, so he is going to go after the tag champions.

SMACKDOWN NEWS

Everyone backstage were said to be pleased with the return of Paul Heyman.

Smackdown has some workers on their roster that used to work for him in ECW

Heyman will only have a "on air" character, and at this time he will not join the writing team.

WWE confirmed the signings of Kid Kash and Abyss. Will they be Paul Heyman's team??? Or will they join RAW, with their current state of tag teams??? Will they even debut as a team????

Where the hell are they going with Booker T.'s gimmick??? Do they have big plans for it, or are they somehow punishing Book?? They made Dusty where polka-dots and they made William Regal kiss Vince Mcmahon's bare ass, are they just giving Booker the worst possible gimmick imaginable just to piss him off???

Smackdown's announcing booth is now empty after Micheal Cole's arrest/firing today. Who will replace him????? Natural speculation has Paul Heyman assuming the duties, but his character seems more geared towards being a manager. Jonathon Coachman could also step up, so to speak, but there are those in the company not high on his work. Jim Cornette, Josh Matthews, Roddy Piper, Joey Styles, and Simon Inoki are names being brought up

BREAKING NEWS: WWE FIRES MICHEAL COLE AFTER DRUG BUST

Smackdown announcer Micheal Cole was arrested late Thursday night, after an Atlanta police officer pulled over the car Cole was driving and found 12.3 grams of crack cocaine in the passenger seat. He was charged and is awaiting a bail hearing. WWE officials have then announced Cole's firing from the company. No word yet, on who will replace him on Smackdown.

TEDDY LONG'S DECISION ABOUT THE VACATED TAG TEAM TITLES

HOLLA!!!HOLLLA!!!!HOLLA ATCHA BOY!!!! Teddy Long is in the ring with an anouncment. He regrets that Eddie Guerrero got drafted to the number 2 show in the WWE. Eddie was a great champion, be it single or tag, and made Smackdown proud. Now onto buisness. Since Eddie Guerrero and Rey Mysterio were champions, and since Eddie is no longer here, Teddy had to make the hard descision and strip the champions. TEDDY LONG ANNOUNCES AN EIGHT TEAM TOURNAMENT, THAT WILL CONCLUDE WITH THE FINALS AT JUDGEMENT DAY!!!!!

The first match will be next as former champions Rey Mysterion and RVD take on La Resistance!!!! He will announce the other brackets in the coming weeks, as he sees fit.

Teddy Long went against his better judgement and left one spot open for anyone to sign their names onto the dotted line to be a part of this tournament, all they had to do was be the first person to sign. The person who signed first is none other than PAUL HEYMAN!!!!!!!!!

Paul makes his way into the ring. DAMN IT FEELS GOOD TO BE BACK!!!! Paul has been away for awhile, but when he heard about an open spot in the tournament, he knew that this would be the perfect time to come back. Paul has a team that will take the gold and revitalize the tag team division. Paul brings out THE DUDLEY BOYS, who are returning to Smackdown after an abscence. Paul knows the Dudley's. He gave them their first big breaks in this industry. He made them into Superstars, and made them into household names. PAUL HEYMAN TAKES DIRECT CREDIT FOR EVERYTHING THAT THE DUDLEY'S HAVE DONE IN THIS SPORT.

Unfotunately, the Dudley's haven't done one thing for Paul Heyman, and quite frankly he is sick and tired of it. Paul takes us back to 1998, when he owned the juggernaught that was ECW. ECW was just starting to become well known and well respected. 1998 was a make or break year for ECW. He needed all the workers to be one page and to be a team, and how do the Dudley's repay him for all his work in getting them over???? They sell their souls to Vince Mcmahon, and turn their backs on him. Paul takes us back a year ago. Paul Heyman was once and allgoing to get rid of the Undertaker. The Dudley's were his first choice to do the deed of burying the deadman. But they couldn't do it. Finally Paul brings up the fact that the Dudley's last champioship regin was ended at the hands of London and Kodman, does he need to say more.

So, Heyman has signed a mystery team to compete , and as far as the Dudley's go, THEY ARE NOTHING WITHOUT PAUL HEYMAN!!! Paul goes to leave, but Bubba grabs his arm and the Dudley's execute the 3D on Paul Heyman!!!! The Dudley's leave, and Teddy Long, standing over Heyman announces that next week, it will be THE DUDLEY'S VS. HEYMAN'S MYSTERY TEAM!!!!!!!

FAN REACTION TO MONDAY NIGHT RAW

by: Harry Asscracker

I attended the last episode of RAW, and while I walked away enjoying my evening, there were spots that seemed to drag. I was somewhat shocked at such a low turnout, as the entire top section was tarped off, and the ushers were moving people to better seats all night.

They had a dark match between Rosey and some scrub no one cared about. Alot of "Three Minute Warning" chants during this one.

Heat was a complete waste of time until the main event.

Tyson Tomko and Hardcore Holly easily beat there opponents in singles action. I can't tell you who they were, as I was getting an HBK shirt.

Simon Dean and Chris Masters beat some scrubs. I believe their names were Alex and Jorge Constanzo. They seem intent on pushing the team of Dean and Masters, but they got little or no reaction form the mobile fans. Well, except Simon Dean, who is funny as shit, doing his fitness routine

The Heat Main Event was by far the best match on Heat, as Victoria beat Molly Holly and Lita in a Triple Threat match.

The fans were really behind Eddie Guerrero tonight. ALOT of Eddie chants during his stellar match with Edge.

Speaking of Edge, I like where there going with his confrontation with Y2J, and he came a across as a legitamate heel.

The Big Show/ Hassan match was a dud, as they got no reaction, even with Big Show standing up for the US. His chops are wicked as hell live though.

The Main Event wasn't nessecarily a 5 star match, but it did progress the Batista/HHH feud nice. Seeing Big Dave get pedigreed onto the end the the sledgehammer was sick. Big Dave was totally busted open, and after RAW went off the air, had to be helped back. HHH and Flair posed in the ring after RAW went off, as well. Flair elicited alot of WOOOOOO'S. Mobile still marks out for Flair.

MONDAY NIGHT RAW NEWS

Yesterday's Monday Night Raw drew a 5.27 nielsen rating. WWE officials were not happy that the arena was half empty as only an estimated 7500 tickets were sold. The whole upper bowl had to be tarped off.

With Slyvain Grenier's depature to Smackdown, there seems to be no challengers for the World Tag Team Championships, so look for the team of William Regal and Tajiri to have a long reign with the belts until a new team can be found. Officials were quite happy with the pairing of Chris Masters and Simon Dean last night, so look for them to continue to tag. RAW officals are flying to Louisville to scout some OVW tag teams. Teams suchs as the Heartbreakers, the Naturals, and the Blond Bombers are going to be getting looks. Also there is rumbling's that officals could bring some indy teams straight onto the roster. The Havanna Pittbulls, CM Punk and Colt Cabana, or the Christopher Street Connection could be getting calls.

Batista needed 15 stitches to close the gash on his forehead, while Y2J needed 8.

And finally, the mood backstage was said to be very good, despite the poor gate. Everyone was really pleased with the performance of Eddie Guerrero last night.

Jericho asks Edge how it feels to be tenured longer in the company that Y2J, yet still never be heavyweight champion.

Nobody cares about Jericho anymore, the wrestler on every fans lips is EDGE!!!! Edge claims that Jericho's title run directly led to the funk that the WWE is currently in, and the only one to fix it, is Edge. Jericho says, "You talk about funks?? How about this funk.....FUNK YOU!!!"
