Re: DH6 Presents WWE 2008 & Beyond
Monday Night Raw; March 10th, 2008; Dallas, Texas
The show kicks off with Triple H making his way to the ring. He gets on the microphone and starts to talk about how he once again will be a part of the biggest event in sports-entertainment history, WrestleMania. Triple H starts to talk a bit of smack about Mr. Kennedy, and that he's set himself up for the biggest laugh of his career. Triple H says that Kennedy never should have cost Triple H the WWE Championship, and that it will prove costly when he and a partner of his choice embarrass the name 'McMahon'. This leads to Triple H talking about having to look for a partner on such short notice, and how he has certain criteria. The King of King explains his criteria, which is someone who is just as good as himself, delivers at WrestleMania, and knows how to make loudmouths shut up. The Game goes on about his career, and how he has made a living of shutting people up. He mentioned several people, all quite successful, who he has shut up, such as Shawn Michaels, Chris Jericho, The Rock, Umaga, Randy Orton, Steve Austin, Goldberg, Rob Van Dam, Mick Foley, Edge and Ric Flair. Hunter says that any of these guys could be his partner, but no matter who his partner is, Kennedy will be shut up like the rest of them come WrestleMania. Triple H gets a few more comments in, but not many as he is interrupted by Mr. Kennedy.
Mr. Kennedy gets onto the microphone and tells Triple H that his comments and insulting remarks stop there. Kennedy tells Triple H that he's through with him walking down to the ring each week and going on about how he's better than everybody else. Kennedy says he's had enough of it, and that it's time for Triple H to realize that there's a new era ready to take over... ... ... the McMahon era. Kennedy says that as long as he's a McMahon, he can do anything, which includes giving himself whatever he wants, telling anybody in the locker room to do something, or even firing Triple H. Hunter gives Kennedy a questionable look, almost as if he's toying with Kennedy to fire him. Mr. Kennedy continues on his power trip, even mentioning that he could have the WWE Championship off of Shawn Michaels' waist and around his at the snap of his fingers. But instead, The Upstart says that he would much rather embarrass veterans like Shawn Michaels, Undertaker, Ric Flair, Chris Jericho, and even Triple H to win the WWE Championship. Mr. Kennedy goes on to say that WrestleMania is known as the grandest stage of 'em all, but for Triple H, it will be the biggest embarrassment of 'em all.
Following this, Triple H asks Kennedy if he's finally done talking as he wants some words in. Kennedy tells him to go right ahead, but is cut off as Triple H begins talking none-the-less. Triple H tells Kennedy he's just like all the rest. He starts out as the biggest arrogant son of a bitch in the world, but once he's been beaten, he turns into the biggest sore loser in the world. Triple H tells Kennedy that when he and his partner knock off Mr. Kennedy and his ass-kissing McMahon family, he doesn't want any whining, complaining, or excuses. However, before anything else can happen, the Raw General Manager STEPHANIE MCMAHON makes her way down to the ring to a large mixed reaction. Stephanie grabs a microphone, and looks at both her ex-husband and her brother. Stephanie says that this is exaclty what she wants. She says she wants people who hate it each other to get it out in the open, because that's what makes for better television. Triple H interrupts her by saying that if she wants to see hatrid so bad, why not make Triple H vs. Mr. Kennedy right here tonight. Stephanie thinks about it, and when it looks like she's going to make the match... ... ... Kennedy speaks up.
Kennedy says that he's not going to be competing against Triple H tonight, or anyone for that matter. He says he hasn't been feeling too good lately, and that he doesn't want to risk anything. This of course gets a lot of heat from the crowd as they don't quite buy it, nor does Triple H. The Cerebral Assassin tells Kennedy that this is exactly what he's talking about when he says 'excuses'. Triple H tells Kennedy that if he thinks he's the next big thing, the next superstar to shine, then to get his ass in the ring with Triple H tonight and fight like a man. The Game gets right up in Kennedy's face with this comment as both men are quite angry. Stephanie tries to break it up, but Kennedy warns her to stay back. Kennedy asks Triple H if he really wants him in the ring tonight, but in a tone that says "Don't answer that." Kennedy accepts Triple H's challenge to a match here tonight, and says that he'll see just how costly it will be when not only will he need a WrestleMania partner... ... ... but a replacement.

In our first match of the night, Mickie James takes on Beth Phoenix with Melina in Beth Phoenix's corner. Mickie James opens up with some strong offense on Beth, but the former Women's Champion fires back by nearly beheading Mickie James, and in the process, taking control of the matchup. Phoenix dominates Mickie for the next little while, but the fiery Women's Champ isn't down for long. James comes back with some hard kicks, which eventually leads to taking Beth down with a Neckbreaker. Both women get right back at it, with Mickie starting to build quite a bit of momentum. Mickie's momentum continues with some high-impact moves, but she is eventually put to a screeching halt by the train known as Beth Phoenix. Phoenix follows things up by going for the FISHERMAN SUPLEX! - but Mickie counters and takes Beth down to the ground with a Modified STO. Mickie follows things up by going for STRATUSFACTION - but Melina gets on the apron to distract her! The distraction proves to be upsetting for Melina, as Mickie bounces off of Melina's face instead of the ropes! - knocking Melina off of the apron - and hitting Stratusfaction for the pinfall victory. After the match, Mickie holds her title up in the air as Melina holds her jaw in the outside while shaking her head in frustration.
Backstage, the WWE Champion Shawn Michaels is walking down a hallway to a fantastic pop. He is surprisingly stopped by SmackDown's World Heavyweight Champion Batista, who also receives a great pop. HBK questions Batista on his unusual Raw appearance, but the World Champion tells him he's here to see Shawn, and Shawn only. 'Tista explains that Saturday Night's Main Event is just 6 nights away, and that the two of them will collide in the Main Event. Michaels tells Batista that he already knows that, and he's been thinking a great deal about it. He says they may be good friends, and that they may be champions, but that doesn't matter anymore. Shawn says he threw the old HBK out the window last week when he Superkicked the Undertaker in the center of the ring. Shawn says that he's a new man, a proud man, and a man of willingness... ... and desperation. Shawn begins to say that anything can happen, but he is cut off by a warning from Batista: Watch what you do at Saturday Night's Main Event, because you never know what conflict you may find yourself in. The message also stated that Shawn better pray that he still has the trust of the Undertaker, because if he doesn't, The Phenom may increase his WrestleMania record to 16-0.

~Hall of Fame Inductees Number Five and Six -- JACK & GERALD BRISCOE
We cut to an office that has Mr. Kennedy pacing with Shane McMahon sitting down to quite a large amount of heat. Shane is telling Kennedy to stop worrying about Triple H. Shane tells Kennedy that Triple H was The King of Kings, was The Cerebral Assassin, and was The Game. Shane tells Kennedy that Triple H once was the top dog in the industry, but that was the past, and that his eleven World Titles mean nothing now. Shane explains to Kennedy that it's Kennedy's time, his era, his dawning. Shane assures Kennedy that he will be right by his side at WrestleMania when they sweep away the ashes of Triple H and whatever has-been he brings with him. Kennedy agrees with Shane, and says Triple H may have once been The King, but that's all gonna change on March 30th. Kennedy then asks Shane if he thinks what Triple H said about Kennedy being cocky, a loud mouth, and head over heels was true. Shane says no with a bit of stumbling, but Kennedy disagrees by cutting him off saying it's true, it's damn true. Ken explains that he is Mr. Kennedy McMahon, meaning he has every reason to be cocky, arrogant, brash, whatever you may call it. Kennedy says his ego is bigger than any accomplishment in Triple H's entire career, or in any other superstar's career for the matter. Kennedy says tonight he wants to teach Triple H a pre-WrestleMania lesson that he can compete with the top dogs, the 'big boys'. Shane is warning Kennedy not to do more than he can handle, but Shane is once again interrupted with Kennedy telling him he can handle anything. Kennedy finishes things off by saying that the legacy of Triple H was going to end at WrestleMania, but instead... ... ... it's going to end tonight.
Our next matchup features Paul London taking on Trevor Murdoch, with both men having their partners at ringside. The get go sees both men exchanging some holds, with Murdoch trying quite hard to get the upper hand, but London is the one who does so by taking Murdoch down with a Dropkick. London continues with some solid offense, but when he goes up onto the second rope, Murdoch quickly races over to him and pulls him down to the mat below. Murdoch controls the next part of the matchup, but London uses his strong will power to get back into the match. Both men exchange blows, but London gets the better of it with a Running Clothesline. London continues on the offense by connecting with a well placed Heel Kick to Murdoch's face. London follows it up with a cover, but Murdoch manages to kick out right before the three. The two keep battling, but when London gets up on the top rope to go for the 450 Splash, Murdoch gets up and distracts the referee. This allows Cade to get up on the apron with a Steel Chair, and hit London; causing him to fall into the ring where Murdoch pins him for the three count.
~A promo airs promoting Mick Foley's new book, "Beyond the Sock," which is in stores now.
Backstage, Todd Grisham is standing with a microphone in hand. He introduces his interview guests, The Hardys. Like always, Matt and Jeff get a tremendous pop. Todd asks Jeff what it was like to lose a shot at going to WrestleMania thanks to Carlito and John Morrison. Jeff explains that he's pissed off, and costing him a shot at the Money in the Bank Contract was a big mistake. Matt chips in that Morrison & Carlito may think that they have some sort of advantage over The Hardys, but all they've got are two angry guys that are gonna beat them down when they get the chance. Just then, we hear some clapping in the background. The camera turns to see Carlito & John Morrison slowly approaching the Hardys to a large amount of heat. Morrison puts his hand on Jeff's shoulder while laughing somewhat. He says finding out that the Hardys are mad at them gives them no worries at all. Morrison says to find out that they've got Matt and Jeff Hardy on their trail should be on the Comedy Channel. Carlito says Matt and Jeff Hardy could make a jokebook on their patheticness, as it would be a top seller. Matt looks ready to hit Carlito and Morrison, but Morrison yells out Whoa! Carlito gets angry because he explains how all four of them have to be on the same team tonight, and they better be on the same page if they want to win. Jeff agrees that they will be on the same team, but he's not too sure about being on the same page. Jeff and Matt then storm off in the opposite direction as Morrison and Carlito look somewhat furious.

Stephanie McMahon is seen in her office on a cell phone, but she hangs up as Melina walks in to a tremendous amount of heat. Melina asks Stephanie why she wanted to see her, and Stephanie gives her an answer. Stephanie walks over to her General Manager's desk, and picks up a clipboard that has some papers on it, as well as a pen. Stephanie tells Melina that it's a contract stating if Melina attacks Mickie James before WrestleMania, she will lose her title shot, but if Mickie James attacks Melina before WrestleMania, she will relinquish her title to Melina. Stephanie explains how Mickie James has already signed it, so now it's up to Melina if this truly is a deal. Melina stares at Stephanie for a few seconds, before grabbing the pen and the contract... ... ... and signing on the dotted line. Melina hands the contract and pen back to Stephanie before exiting from the office with a stern look.
Back at ringside, Mr. Kennedy makes his way to the ring... ... alone. Kennedy gets on his old-fashioned microphone and introduces himself, before waiting for his opponent. Triple H finally makes his way down to the ring as we get set for this one-on-one contest. The bell rings as Triple H looks ready to strike Kennedy, but suddenly, he is attacked from behind by SHANE MCMAHON~! Shane starts pounding away at a downed Triple H with a series of stomps and fists, as does Kennedy who joins in. Triple H does his best to protect himself, but to no avail as Kennedy's and Shane's onslaught is an agressive one. After about ten seconds of beating Triple H down... **Burn In My Light** Shane and Ken's attention is directed to the stage as RANDY ORTON slowly walks out onto the stage and down the ramp with an almost blank expression. Orton gets in the ring and grabs a microphone as Mr. Kennedy and Shane McMahon look on in confusion. Orton tells them that they've done enough, and that he wants a piece of Triple H. Orton says he has bigger things on his mind, such as Stone Cold Steve Austin, and that he wants to make sure Triple H is out of the way. Orton drops the microphone and gets down onto his knees where he begins to stalk Triple H. Orton slowly waits for Triple H to get up, but in the process of this... **Glass Shatters** The crowd explodes into a pop as a black Dodge pick-up truck drives out on the concrete floor below the stage. The driver door opens, and out steps STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!! Austin gets a huge ovation as he makes his way down to ringside. Austin gets in the ring and stands nose to nose with his WrestleMania opponent, Randy Orton. After a long, heated staredown, Orton slaps Austin right across the face! Austin holds his cheek in disbelief, but then smiles as he turns back to Orton. The Legend Killer, intimidated, begins to back up a bit, but he backs right into Triple H! Orton turns around, only for Triple H to nail him with a hard right handed shot! Orton stumbles a bit.. right into a STONE COLD STUNNER!! Orton goes flying as he lands on the mat and rolls to the outside, while Austin's music plays again. Triple H and Stone Cold Steve Austin have a brief staredown, with Jim Ross leaving the question in our mind who Triple H's partner will be come WrestleMania.

Our next matchup sees Bobby Lashley defending his Intercontinental Championship against Christian, who has Tyson Tomko in his corner. The match starts out with Lashley overpowering Christian, who is quite shocked that the champion keeps knocking him down. However, Tomko interferes in the matchup by jumping up onto the apron and getting the attention of Lashley. With Lashley's back turned, Christian takes him down from behind with a chop block. Christian takes advantage of this opportunity and begins to work on the left knee of Lashley. Christian pounds away at it with his fist, and also stomps on it with his boot. Christian applies several leg locks to Lashley's knee, inflicting even more pain. Christian begins to get quite cocky, and shouts out a "Wooo!" The challenger then goes for a Figure Four Leg Lock, but when he spins around, Lashley pushes him forward. Christian goes into the ropes, and when he comes running back at Lashley, The Real Deal is already back to his feet - and both men butt heads! They both manage to get back to their feet, but Lashley uses what brought him to the dance - power. He gets all over Captain Charisma with several right hands, forearms, and clotheslines. Lashley even manages to connect with a Scoop Slam, which is followed up with a cover, but only gets a two count. Lashley gets back to his feet, and then heads over to a corner as he waits for Christian to get to his feet. Christian starts to get up, but at the same time, Tomko grabs Lashley's foot from the outside. An annoyed Lashley manages to shake Tomko off, and then charges at Christian - GOING FOR THE SPEAR! - but Christian ducks - AND LASHLEY TAKES OUT THE REFEREE!! Lashley looks down at the referee in astonishment, before turning around to have Christian hit him with a low blow! Lashley drops down onto his knees, and then onto the ground as Tomko scares Lilian Garcia out of her chair, and then folds up the steel chair she was sitting in. Tomko slides the chair into the ring, which Christian grabs with delight. Christian slowly awaits for Lashley to get to his feet, which Lashley starts to do. However, at the same time, the referee is pulling himself up with the ropes. Lashley finally gets back to his feet and turns around - and Christian NAILS HIM IN THE HEAD WITH THE CHAIR! Immediately following this, the bell rings, as we see that the referee was up and saw Christian use the chair. It is announced that Lashley wins and retains the title, which gets a pop. Christian argues with the referee about the decision, but the referee orders Christian to exit the ring, and he obeys.
We cut backstage to see Mick Foley walking down a hallway to an enormous pop. Foley is carrying his new book, "Beyond the Sock," in his left hand. Suddenly, Foley stops walking as Chris Jericho walks up to him to a huge pop. Chris puts a hand on Foley's shoulder and goes over Foley's accomplishments, including standing up to Undertaker in Hell in a Cell, having three completely different personalities, serving as the Commissioner, writing several books as an author, and when Chris goes to give another accomplishment, Foley cuts Chris off, agreeing with him that he's done all of that, but he's gone bigger. He established the meaning of the word 'Hardcore'. He won the WWE Championship on 3 different occasions. Foley goes to continue, but this time it's Chris Jericho who interrupts, laughing to himself slightly. Y2J explains how he knows that, yet it seems as if Mick doesn't know that himself. Jericho explains to Foley how he's read his new book, "Beyond the Sock," and how he was a bit taken back at the fact that Mick's writing seemed like he was embarrassed of what he had done. Just then, some coughing was heard in the background, but the kind of cough that makes somebody want to be heard. The camera turns to see SmackDown's EDGE strutting towards Mick Foley and Chris Jericho. ... ... ...
Edge: Chris, for once in a while, hell, in my life... ... ... I agree with you. Now y'see, I haven't really gotten the chance, nor have I bothered to read your new book, Mick, but knowing you, every single word you wrote down was out of nothing but embarrassment.
Large amount of heat
Edge: And y'know what Mick? I don't blame you one bit for being embarrassed, and y'know why? It's because your career has been nothing but a laughing stock since the day it began!
Even more heat than before
Edge: You came here and immediately tried to make everybody think that you're some kind of Hardcore Legend. And the sickening part of it all is that people actually believed you. They believed you Mick because you sold your body. You didn't care how much pain you felt or blood you lost. You did it no matter what, and I actually was starting to believe that you were a Hardcore Legend... ... ... ... but that was the past. Now, if I remember correctly, two years ago at WrestleMania 22, I went toe to toe against you Mick in your environment... ... a Hardcore Match. I did what you did, by sacrificing my body and career on the grandest stage of 'em all, and in the end, we both went to hell... ... ... but I came back alive. I put an end to you and your legacy as a Hardcore Legend. I killed you and whatever you may have had... and now look at me.
Edge pauses to let Mick Foley and Chris Jericho take a look at him
Edge: So Mick, I'm sure you know that next week on Raw, it's WrestleMania Rewind Night. And I you know what that means, so Mick, if you have the balls, the courage, and are willing to sacrifice your body one more time, I'll see you next week, and I'll finally put an end to the Hardcore Legend... known as Mick Foley.
Edge receives quite a bit of heat as he continues down the hallway, past Foley and Jericho.

Blazing Hot WrestleMania Moment: Shawn Michaels defeats Bret Hart at WrestleMania 12 in a 60 Minute Ironman Match to capture the WWE Championship
The next contest of the night features The Samoan Bulldozer Umaga taking on DH Smith. The bell rings as Smith stays back in the corner, but then finds enough courage to proceed over to Umaga and hit him in the chest with a right hand shot. Umaga staggers slightly, but not very much as Smith does the same thing. Again, it has the same result. Umaga decides he doesn't want to be hit in the chest any more, and beheads Smith with a hard right handed shot. Smith drops down to the ground, but slowly gets back to his feet. Umaga connects with a headbutt, which causes Smith to drop down to the ground and sit in the corner. Umaga heads to the other corner, does a taunt, and then runs at Smith - driving his butt into Smith's face! Smith's head bounces back as Umaga grabs him by the neck and pulls him to his feet. Umaga keeps his hand on Smith's neck, sticks out his thumb, and then connects with the SAMOAN SPIKE!! Umaga covers him for the academic three count. After the match, Umaga taunts in the ring, showing his monster-like traits and why he has a good chance of winning the Money in the Bank Match at WrestleMania 24.
Backstage, Maria is standing with a microphone. She has a wide, cute smile and is quite bouncy. Maria begins to interview herself, saying that she can hardly wait for the Women's Championship Match at WrestleMania. Maria says some other stuff about how great the match is going to be, but she stops as she gets a little tap on the shoulder. Both Maria and the camera turn to see Shelton Benjamin standing there wearing casual clothes and a pair of shades on his head to a fairly decent pop. Shelton tells Maria that it's great she's looking forward to the Women's Title match at WrestleMania, and WrestleMania in general for that matter, but he has a completely different story. Shelton explains how he's not looking forward to WrestleMania, because he's not a part of the big event. Shelton says he should be in the Money in the Bank Match, and Shelton explains why. Shelton talks about how he was in the first two Money in the Bank Matches, and he shone above the other competitors involved. Benjamin explains how he should be given the Money in the Bank briefcase, but since that's not going to happen, he's going to do something about it. Maria asks him why he's so angry, and Shelton just looks at her in anger and disappointment while shaking his head 'no'. Shelton mouths the words 'I'm done', and then walks away. With a confused look on her face, Maria says "Good luck goes out to Shelton Benjamin when he competes in the Money in the Bank Match at WrestleMania." A crew man then walks onto the camera and whispers something to Maria, who looks awfully confused. Maria tries to save her unintelligence by saying "Err, I meant in the future." Maria then walks off of the set and down the hall as we cut back to ringside.
The Hardys, Carlito, and John Morrison all make their way down to the ring for their match. Kane's fire goes off on the stage as **Slow Chemical** plays. Kane walks out from behind the set, onto the stage, and down the ramp as we cut to a commercial break.
{Commercials}
We come back from the commercial break to see Kane waiting in one corner of the ring, with The Hardys, Carlito, and John Morrison standing in another. Chris Jericho, Shawn Michaels, and Undertaker all make their way down to the ring for this eight-man tag team contest, which eventually gets underway. The WWE Champion, Shawn Michaels, starts out the match against the cocky Carlito. Both men engage in several holds and counters, but Michaels gets the distinct advantage over Carlito in each hold. Carlito doesn't let it get to him, however, and comes right back by countering a Hammer Lock into a Side Headlock. However, Michaels counters right back into a Hammer Lock, and pulls Carlito over to his corner, where he tags in the Undertaker with force. Undertaker enters the ring to a huge pop, and immediately grabs the right arm of Carlito. Undertaker drives his elbow into Carlito's arm, which causes the Caribbean superstar to stumble backwards. Undertaker moves right back to Carlito, but Carly rakes him in the eyes, and then makes the tag to John Morrison. The Shaman of Sexy wastes no time in getting in the ring, but it proves to be costly as Undertaker takes him down with a clothesline. Taker continues on the offense by completely taking control of Morrison, but The Monday Night Delight eventually manages to escape The Phenom's onslaught and tags in Carlito, who hops up on the top rope and jumps off - connecting with a MISSILE DROPKICK to Undertaker! We then go to our final commercial break of the evening.
{Commercials}
We come back from the commercial break to see John Morrison on top of Chris Jericho. We learn that during the commecial break, Undertaker fought back and tagged in Chris Jericho, but he was soon grounded. Also, Kane, Matt Hardy, and Jeff Hardy haven't even been legally involved in the match yet. Morrison and Carlito continue to tag in each other, but not the Hardys, which annoys Team Extreme. In the process of this, Jericho continues to get isolated from his team, who get quite edgy. The Shaman of Sexy gets awfully cocky, and goes for the WALLS OF JERICHO! - But Jericho knows his own move too well and shoves Morrison off, causing his head to smack off of the mat. Both mean finally manage to make tags, with Jericho being forced to tag in Kane, and Morrison being forced to tag in Jeff Hardy. Kane and Jeff Hardy clash, with Kane going for a clothesline, but Jeff ducking and bouncing off the ropes. Jeff runs off the ropes a few times in hopes of taking down Kane, but each time he only causes The Big Red Machine to stagger on his feet. Jeff connects with a toe kick, and then goes to whip Kane into the corner, but instead it's Jeff who goes into the corner due to a counter from Kane. The Big Red Machine quickly charges at Jeff and inflicts pain with a violent clothesline. Kane staggers back into his own corner... ... where Shawn Michaels tags himself in! Shawn and Kane have a brief staredown, before Shawn gets in the ring and moves towards Jeff Hardy. Out of nowhere, Shawn goes for SWEET CHIN MUSIC! - But Jeff counters by grabbing his foot, spinning it around, kicking Shawn in the stomach - and then connecting with the TWIST OF FATE!! Jeff goes for the cover, but right before the three count... CARLITO BREAKS IT UP!!
Jeff gets back to his feet and looks at Carlito in anger. The two begin to argue, but not for long as Undertaker enters the ring and takes both men down with a double clothesline! Jeff slowly rolls over to his corner, whereas Undertaker turns around - only to have KANE PLANT HIM WITH A CHOKESLAM!! Kane looks down at him in disgust, while Jeff gets the tag to Matt Hardy! Matt Hardy ascends to the top rope, and leaps off, but Kane catches him and goes for a CHOKESLAM!! It doesn't happen, however, because SHAWN MICHAELS TAKES KANE OUT WITH SWEET CHIN MUSIC!! Both Matt Hardy and Kane collapse to the ground, leaving Shawn Michaels as the only man standing... ... ... ... **I Walk Alone** The crowd goes nuts as SmackDown's BATISTA finally comes out onto the stage looking intense. Batista slowly makes his way down to the ring, with neither Michaels or Batista taking their eyes off of each other. The lights then go out, and come back on, and when they do, Shawn turns around... ... ... to be speared by EDGE!!! Edge runs his fingers through his hair while looking down at Michaels. Edge then pulls Matt Hardy on top of Michaels, and the referee hesitantly counts the three, picking up the win for Carlito, John Morrison, Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy.
Batista slides into the ring to join Edge as the two of them have a staredown of confusion, yet with proud looks on their faces. Edge makes the belt shape on his waist, before heading to the outside of the ring as we go off the air.
