Re: WWE; The Alternative Route
Mr.R Presents...WWE RAW!WWE; The Alternative Route
Go! Woah, I'll never give in and, Woah, I'll never give up, Woah, I'll never give in, And I just wanna be, WANNA BE LOVED"
"To Be Loved" by Papa Roach plays, accompanied with an Opening Highlight Reel featuring many of the prominent Raw Superstars. The theme music volume decreases as the camera pans the sold-out Pepsi Center, and a dazzling display of red pyrotechnics drop from the ceiling, as pyrotechnics also explode from the High-Definition Set. We now join Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler, who are at ringside on commentary.
Ross: Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler on commentary tonight for Monday Night Raw, LIVE from the Pepsi Center in Denver, Colorado! Tonight is the official contract signing for the WWE Championship match at One Night Stand between Jeff Hardy and Triple H!
Lawler: You've got that right, JR, and not to mention tonight's huge match between the representatives of Mr. McMahon and William Regal, where whoever's representative wins, will decide the stipulation for the Co-Owner's match at One Night Stand this Sunday!
"My Time Is Now" blasts out of the PA System, provoking a raucuous reception, but several moments later, still no John Cena. Of all people, Randy Orton walks through the curtain, getting unimaginable heat, and motionlessly makes his way down the rampway and towards the ring. Orton stops and glares at a front-row fan wearing a John Cena T-Shirt, and the Legend Killer s******s, before entering the squared circle.
Orton:Expecting somebody else?
Randy Orton's sarcastic remarks aren't well received with the audience, as heat fills the Pepsi Center, which seems to comfort Randy Orton.
Orton:Don't feel incensed in anyway, you should have seen it coming. I mean, each and every one of you should have seen yours truly knock John Cena out senseless, although I do expect not many of you have Cable Television around here in Denver.
Randy Orton gets a significantly negative reaction, in reponse to Orton's offensive remarks on the city of Denver.
Orton: Although there isn't any confirmation, I hope for John Cena's sake, that he doesn't turn up tonight, because if he does, everybody is going to look at what I did last week as just a little sample of the pain I am going to inflict on that son-of-a-bitch! As you all know, next week on Raw, it's the WWE Draft, and John better hope that he gets drafted to Smackdown, 'cause there's no way that he can survive life on Raw, when he's in the same locker room as me.
Boos meet Randy Orton's comment, but they die down when the audience come to realise that it is partially the truth.
Orton:Once I have John Cena out of my path, then my intentions will again be set on once again reclaiming the WWE Championship which rightfully belongs to the Legend Killer. It's an unfortunate coincedence that John Cena is associated with my name, so to be honest, you people should show me the respect I deserve, because ever since our first match, I've had to carry the weight of John's career and reputation on my shoulders. And sooner or later, I hope that it stops.
A mixed reaction for Randy Orton, Orton's feelings about competition against John Cena is in deep contrast to the audience in the Pepsi Center.
Orton: I am in need of a fresh challenge, and I want to begin the process right here tonight. So, I'm issuing a challenge to anybody, and I mean anybody, who thinks that they stand a chance against the Legend Killer.
Many moments have passed, and still there is no answer to Randy Orton's challenge.
Orton: (Laughing)...You know, that's exactly what I expected to happen, because nobody in the back, or in John Cena's case right now the hospital, has the audacity to impose a challenge to me, because they know that I am unbeatable. It just goes to show that I am truly the One-Man Dynasty, and-
Suddenly, the challenge is answered, as "Turn Up The Trouble" by Airbourne plays, and Raw’s Resident Loudmouth Mr. Kennedy comes out to the stage, getting a good reaction.
Kennedy: Randy, just when you thought it was safe to emerge unscathed from your challenge, here I am. Randy, how can you possibly think that nobody would answer your challenge? Every single guy in the back wants to get their hands on you, and this was the oppurtunity they were gonna get, purely and simply because we are under a power-hungry General Manager who goes by the name of William Regal.
The mention of William Regal gets a very negative response from the Denver audience.
Kennedy: It’s not everyday the oppurtunity arises to face you, Randy, and I had the pair to take it. Randy, get your gear on, kid, ‘cause you’re in for a rough ride tonight.
Orton: Oh, I wouldn’t count on that, Kennedy. You saw what I did to John Cena last week, I find it hard to believe that you have the audacity to answer my challenge. I was looking for competition tonight, not a total buffoon like yourself, Ken.
Heat for Randy Orton, and Mr. Kennedy looks on with a surprised expression on his face.
Orton: Well, Ken, I guess you’ve drawn the line in the sand now, so whatever I do to you later on tonight, you can safely say that you brought it upon yourself. I strongly suggest that you reserve your place in the hospital, Ken, because you’re gonna get to know John Cena pretty well in there.
"Voices" plays, as Randy Orton has a staredown with Mr. Kennedy despite the low proximity between the two, who will now face each other later on tonight.
Ross: A courageous move from Mr. Kennedy to answer Randy Orton’s challenge, and we’re getting word that Raw General Manager William Regal has approved for the match to go ahead, so it’s official!
Lawler: It’s a match for the ages, JR, and it’s going ahead tonight! I hope that Mr. Kennedy knows what he’s got himself into!
JR: Still to come tonight, the representatives of William Regal and Mr.
McMahon face each other, where whoever’s representative wins, will decide the stipulation for the match between the Co-Owners of the WWE at One Night Stand!
**COMMERCIAL BREAK**

Garcia: And the opponent, from Jamaica, weighing 223 lbs...Kofi Kingston!
"S.O.S" blasts out, as the fan-favorite Kofi Kingston strides through the curtain, getting a huge pop from the audience. Kofi Kingston performs his signature taunt accompanied with pyrotechnics, and the Jamaican strides toward the ring.

Garcia: Here is your winner...Kofi Kingston!
"S.O.S" plays, as referee Scott Armstrong raises Kofi Kingston’s hand in victory, as Kofi Kingston performs his signature taunt over the body of Hardcore Holly, to a great reaction. Kofi Kingston heads up the rampway, and acknowledges the support from the Denver fans.
The camera switches backstage, where Raw General Manager William Regal is speaking to someone on his cell phone. William Regal is looking very impatient, at whatever he is discussing.
Regal: ...Look, you’re the only man who I feel can lead me to victory, I mean, when this concept was announced, the first name that came to my mind was you. So, can you make it to Denver tonight or not? You can? Oh, that’s fantastic, I couldn’t thank you enough. Just make it to here in time, okay? I don’t care how you, by bus, by aeroplane, I couldn’t care less, just arrive in time. Alright then, I’ll see you later.
William Regal laughs, and hangs up his cell phone. Suddenly, William Regal turns his head to the right-hand side of the screen, as Paul and Katie Lea Burchill walk in, getting a mixed response.
Regal: Well, if it isn’t Paul Burchill and his lovely sister? It’s a pleasure to see you two.
Burchill: Mr. Regal, it’s a pleasure to see you too, but there’s something I need to talk to you about, concerning the match tonight with yours and Mr. McMahon’s representatives.
Regal: What is there to discuss about it, Mr. Burchill?
Burchill: You see, Mr. Regal, you and I, we’re very close friends, am I right?
Regal: Well, of course, Paul, but what does that have to do with the match taking place tonight, may I ask?
Burchill: When you come to think of it, William, it does. I kind of overheard you talking on the phone a minute ago, and if my hearing isn’t deceiving me, it sounds like you’ve lined up a representative for tonight. William, we’ve known each other for a long time, you’re my mentor and one of my close friends, but why wouldn’t you contact me about being a representative?
Regal: Paul, you, I and all of the WWE fans know that you are undoubtedly a star of the future of this business. But at this moment of time...you’re not quite prepared.
Burchill: Not prepared?! NOT PREPARED?! Have you lost your mind, William? I’ve beaten you many times before, and if you consider yourself as the best, then you would pick me as your representative! I’ve beaten you, which makes me better than you, and you better not forget it!
Regal: I’m sorry, Paul, but I can’t take the risk of sending you out there. Who knows who Mr. McMahon could pick? It could be Triple H, John Cena, Chris Jericho, you name it, it could be him! This match is too prestigious for me to lose, and I need to pick the best competitor that I can. As for now, Paul, it can’t be you. I’m sorry.
Burchill: (Nodding his head and smirking) Oh, you will be sorry, William. Come on Katie, let’s go.
Katie Lea Burchill shakes her head in disapproval at William Regal.
K Burchill: I thought we respected you. If you did make the right decision and select Paul as your representative...Let’s just say whatever the result of the match...
Katie Lea Burchill strokes her crimson blouse, which she is wearing, as William Regal looks on, his eyes bulging.
K Burchill: ...You would get your reward.
William Regal looks as if he is drooling, and picks up his cell phone. Regal dials in a
number, and holds the cell phone against his ear.
Regal: Hello? Ah, hello. I’m just here to say that there’s no need to come down to Denver tonight...I’ve got other plans. Goodbye.
William Regal puts down his cell phone, and smirks at Katie Lea Burchill, who grins back. Paul Burchill lets out a huge smile, and pats William Regal on the back in appreciation.
Burchill: Thank you, Mr. Regal...I knew you’d make the right decision.
Paul and Katie Lea Burchill leave William Regal’s office, as Regal looks on in amazement.
Ross: What did Katie Lea Burchill mean by Regal "would get his reward"?
Lawler: It’s obvious, JR! Man, I wish I was in William Regal’s shoes right now, he’s in for a busy night!

The camera switches to backstage, where Raw Interviewer Mike Adamle is standing by, with a microphone in hand, waiting for the audience’s attention.
Adamle: Ladies and gentlemen, please put your hands together and welcome my guest at this time...Mr. Kennedy!
Good reaction for mention of Mr. Kennedy, as Raw’s Resident Loudmouth walks into
the camera, wearing a black tracksuit with a blue Mr. Kennedy logo implemented over the heart.
Adamle: Ken, earlier tonight, we found out that you were to compete against Randy Orton later on in this episode of Raw. Tell us, Ken, what is going through your mind going into this match?
Kennedy: Mike, all that’s running through my mind right now is giving Randy Orton a taste of his own medicine. Now, me and John Cena, I think it’s safe to say that we’re not the best of buddies, but tonight, John, I’m doing it for you.
Mr. Kennedy gets a great reaction, in response to his acknowledgment of John Cena.
Adamle: Mr. Kennedy, next week it’s the WWE Draft. Who would you like to see drafted?
Kennedy: Mike, if it had to be anybody, then it would only be fitting if I said that would be the sorry excuse of a human being who goes by the name of John "Bradshaw" Layfield. Why? Because not only would it be beneficial for Monday Night Raw, but it would also beneficial for another individual. Yeah, you’ve hit the nail on the head there, fella, Mistahhhhhhhhh Kennedyyyyy!!!
Adamle: Well, thank you for your time, Mr-
Kennedy: KENNEDY!!!
A big pop for Mr. Kennedy, as the former Mr. Money in the Bank walks out of the camera, leaving Mike Adamle looking startled.
An advertisement enters the screen, promoting WWE One Night Stand.
Narrator: It is the one night a year when your mind will be drowned in
anxiety...It is the one night a year when it is OK to be afraid...It is the one night a year when the WWE goes extreme! WWE One Night Stand; Extreme Rules, this Sunday, on Pay-Per-View! Be afraid...Be very afraid.
Ross: We are just 6 days away from One Night Stand, and let’s look at what we will be seeing this Sunday.
I Quit Match
If Shawn Michaels loses, he must retire
Shawn Michaels vs. Batista
Ross: Firstly, Shawn Michaels faces Batista in an "I Quit Match", where if Batista wins, Shawn Michaels must retire!
Lawler: It’s ironic that this is the match stipulation in which Shawn Michaels retired Ric Flair, and it was Michaels retiring Flair that laid the foundations for this historical feud between Michaels and Batista! HBK could get a taste of his own medicine this Sunday, JR!
Winner Gains Full Control Of WWE
Mr. McMahon vs. William Regal
Ross: This match is way, way, way beyond personal, Mr. McMahon faces William Regal in a match where the stipulation is yet to be decided, and the winner of this match will gain full control of WWE!
Lawler: I can’t imagine a WWE without Mr. McMahon, JR, but the prospect may become a reality at One Night Stand! This could become Regal Wrestling Entertainment!
WWE Championship Match
Triple H (c) vs. Jeff Hardy
Ross: This is what Jeff Hardy has aspired for ever since he began professional wrestling, and this Sunday, Hardy’s dreams could come true, and win the WWE Championship!
Lawler: Triple H will go to the end of the earth and back to keep his WWE Championship, and The Game won’t go down very easily, but we can say the same about Jeff Hardy too, JR!

Lance Cade lifts Trevor Murdoch high into the air, in a brainbuster position, and drops Trevor Murdoch on the concrete floor on the outside of the ring!

Lance Cade grabs Trevor Murdoch’s legs, and catapults Trevor Murdoch, face-first, into the steel post! Trevor Murdoch is out of it, as Lance Cade gets Trevor Murdoch back in the squared circle. Lance Cade covers Trevor Murdoch, thinking that this has to be the conclusion of this very heated contest,

Two…………
…………Three!
Winner: Lance Cade, 9:02
Garcia: Here is your winner…Lance Cade!
"Cowboy" by Kid Rock plays again, as Lance Cade leaves the ring with a beaming smile on his face, as EMTs rush to the ring and check on Trevor Murdoch.
Ross: What I just saw transpire in that ring was without a doubt despicable! How could Lance Cade commit such a disturbing assault, King?
Lawler: If you ask me, JR, I would say Lance Cade’s attack was payback for Trevor Murdoch holding Cade back for all those years!
Ross: Are you out of your mind, King? Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch were 3-time World Tag Team Champions, and it’s precisely that which has made Lance Cade an established Raw Superstar!
**COMMERCIAL BREAK**
WWE Raw returns, with the camera set in William Regal’s office. William Regal, Paul Burchill and Katie Lea are talking, presumably about the match later on tonight.
Regal: Paul, I’m taking a big risk in selecting you as my representative for the match tonight, so please don’t let me down, the stakes are too high for making mistakes.
Burchill: Mr. Regal, there is no need to worry, I can get the job done, regardless of who my opponent is. If you need this to be done, look no further than The Ripper, Paul Burchill.
Regal: I certainly hope so, Mr. Burchill. But, Mr. Burchill, could you just come here a minute?
William Regal and Paul Burchill walk over to the corner of the office, as Katie Lea Burchill looks on, sucking a pencil in her mouth.
Regal: (Whispering) Your lovely sister Katie Lea did say a little something about a
"reward" for me, after the match.
Burchill: Ah, yes, Mr. Regal, don’t worry, you won’t be disappointed. But for now,
just keep your composure, sit back, and watch me win the match for you.
Regal: (Frowning) I certainly hope so.
Paul Burchill and Katie Lea Burchill leave, as William Regal sits back down, rolling his tongue around in his mouth.
The camera switches back to the ring, where Ring Announcer Lilian Garcia is standing.
Garcia: The following contest is scheduled for one fall!
"Turn Up The Trouble" by Airbourne plays and the audience rise to their feet holding up their signs, as Mr. Kennedy walks through the curtain, and strides down the entranceway and toward the ring. Once Mr. Kennedy is in the squared circle, Kennedy receives his microphone from the ceiling.
Kennedy: Ladies and gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! I hail from Green Bay, Wisconsin! After my drive-through at the local fast food establishment earlier today, I weigh in at 250 lbs!
There is faint laughter amongst the audience, in response to Mr. Kennedy’s humorous introduction in regard to his weight.
Kennedy: You know him, you love him, you can’t live without him…..Mistahhhhhhhhh Kennedyyyyy!!!
Mr. Kennedy, with the microphone still in his hand, climbs to the top turnbuckle, and moves the microphone toward his mouth, as the audience awaits the finishing touches to his introduction.

Mr. Kennedy climbs to the top turnbuckle, but Mr. Kennedy spends too much time playing to the audience, and Randy Orton pushes Mr. Kennedy off the top turnbuckle, and down to the concrete floor on the outside of the ring! Randy Orton departs from the squared circle in a more conventional manner, and Randy Orton smirks, when he sees Mr. Kennedy on his knees. Randy Orton licks his lips, and goes to punt Mr. Kennedy in the skull, but Mr. Kennedy moves out of the way, and throws Randy Orton over the security wall! Mr. Kennedy looks over the security wall, and is about to reach for Randy Orton, when John Cena emerges from the audience, and unloads on Randy Orton! Several moments later of John Cena and Randy Orton brawling, the referee rings the bell, with Mr. Kennedy winning by count-out.
Winner: Mr. Kennedy, 7:24
Garcia: Here is your winner, by count-out…Mr. Kennedy!
Mr. Kennedy has his hand raised by referee Mike Chioda, and Mr. Kennedy leaves, while John Cena and Randy Orton are still brawling amongst the audience. John Cena throws Randy Orton back over the security wall, and John Cena picks up a steel chair. Randy Orton runs at John Cena, but John Cena smashes Randy Orton’s skull with the steel chair! John Cena drags Randy Orton onto the announce table, and John Cena hoists Randy Orton onto his shoulders. John Cena performs his "You Can’t See Me" taunt to the audience, before sending Randy Orton through the table with an FU! John Cena picks up a microphone.
Cena: Randy, I haven’t forgotten what you did to me last week. You punted me in the head, and ever since then, I’ve had to sit in the hospital. You and me, we’re going to end this at One Night Stand this Sunday…In a Falls Count Anywhere Match!
John Cena drops the microphone to a huge pop, and "My Time Is Now" plays, as John Cena heads up toward the High-Definition Entranceway, and leaves the arena, as a broken Randy Orton lies motionless.
The camera switches backstage, where the camera is focused on the WWE Championship, which is placed on a steel chair. The camera zooms out, and we can see Triple H staring at his Championship. Matt Hardy, the brother of Jeff Hardy, walks in, to a huge pop.
Hardy: Hey, Hunter, can I speak to you for a sec?
Triple H reluctantly turns his head toward Matt Hardy, and Matt Hardy holds up his hand in innocence.
Hardy: Look, I know this Sunday you’re against my brother Jeff for the WWE Championship, but I would appreciate it if you didn’t hurt Jeff too much. He’s worked his ass off to get the opportunity to face you at One Night Stand, and if you kick his ass, then you’re really going to dampen his spirits.
Triple H stands up, and looks Matt Hardy in the eye.
Triple H: Matt, I know where you’re coming from, looking out for your brother and all, but seriously, Jeff doesn’t need you looking after him. If he did, then he wouldn’t Swanton off 30-foot scaffoldings, or jump through ladders from 20-feet. No disrespect, Matt, but you don’t have to ask his opponents not to kick his ass. I’ve been in the ring with him a lot of times, and Jeff can handle it.
Triple H turns his head toward the door of his locker room.
Triple H: Speak of the daredevil, come on in, Jeff!|
Jeff Hardy walks in, getting the biggest pop of the night so far.
Hardy: What’s going on, Hunter?
Triple H: Your big brother Matt’s been talking to me about this Sunday, and he was just telling me not to totally beat you up. One Night Stand is the "One night a year when the WWE goes extreme", you’re bound to get hurt. I’ve faced a lot of guys over the years, and not once have I had somebody tell them not to kick my ass as much as they possibly can.
Hardy: Look, Hunter, I didn’t tell him to come in here and defend me, I don’t need anybody to do that. But Hunter, beat me up as much as you want come One Night Stand, because I guarantee you that I’m walking out WWE Champion.
Triple H: You can bring your A-game to One Night Stand, Jeff, but it’s not going to
make any difference whatsoever, because I AM The Game!
Triple H and Jeff Hardy have a lengthy stare down, and Triple H picks up his WWE Championship, raising his Title into the air.
Hardy: …I think I’ll go now, leave you guys to it.
**COMMERCIAL BREAK**
Monday Night Raw returns, with Ring Announcer Lilian Garcia standing in the ring.
Garcia: The following contest is scheduled for one fall, where whoever’s representative wins, will decide the stipulation for the match between William Regal and Mr. McMahon at One Night Stand! But now, please welcome the Raw General Manager and Co-Owner of World Wrestling Entertainment…William Regal!
"Promenade" plays, as William Regal enters the Pepsi Center, getting tons of heat. William Regal walks down the High-Definition Entranceway, and enters the ring, picking up a microphone.
Regal: Ladies and gentlemen, I know this is the moment you have all been waiting for throughout tonight’s show. But now, allow me to introduce you to my representative for the match…The Ripper, Paul Burchill!
Paul Burchill walks down the entranceway with no entrance music, and Burchill, accompanied with his sister Katie Lea, walks toward the ring, as William Regal looks on with a beaming smile on his face.
Garcia: And now, please welcome the Co-owner of World Wrestling Entertainment…Mr. McMahon!
"No Chance" plays, as Mr. McMahon walks through the curtain, getting an unconvincing pop. Mr. McMahon struts down the entranceway in typical fashion, and William Regal and Paul Burchill leave the ring as Mr. McMahon enters.
McMahon: Regal, just admit it, if you weren’t seduced by Katie Lea Burchill, then there would have been no chance in hell of you selecting Paul Burchill as your representative. Right then, allow me to introduce to you a man who will prove to be instrumental in my quest to, daresay, "Save Us" from you, William Regal. I think you all now know who my representative is, Y2J Chris Jericho!
"Break The Walls Down" plays, as the camera focuses on the High-Definition Entranceway where Chris Jericho is standing with his back turned to the audience. Y2J turns round to a huge pop, and Chris Jericho walks down the ramp way and toward the ring.

Regal: Mr. McMahon, if I were you, I would make yourself comfortable lying motionless on the canvas, because you're going to be in the same position this Sunday at One Night Stand. And speaking of One Night Stand, I believe that it is my duty to announce the stipulation for our match at One Night Stand. Mr. McMahon, our match is going to be...A street fight!
"Promenade" plays, as William Regal drops the microphone and Regal, with Paul and Katie Lea Burchill in tow, exits the ring.
**COMMERCIAL BREAK**
Raw returns, with the camera set in William Regal's office. At Regal's side is Katie Lea Burchill, who is playing with her brunette hair.
Regal: Now, Miss Burchill, I believe that you have the end of our deal to fulfill, am I right?
K Burchill: Oh, you're right, William darling, and I will not disappoint.
William Regal smiles, and the General Manager vigorously rips his shirt off, ready for "action".
K Burchill: Mr. Regal, er, what are you doing?
Regal: I'm getting ready for my reward. A problem, is there?
K Burchill: Oh, alright, then, here's your reward - £200 pounds, directly from our home country, the United Kingdom!
William Regal is in disbelief, and runs his hand down his cheek.
Regal: THIS?!
K Burchill: Yes, I know you'll love it, William. Good night!
Katie Lea Burchill walks away, as an astonished William Regal looks on. William Regal gets another long-sleeved shirt from a coathanger, and puts it on, as the screen fades.

We see a Video Package, featuring Jeff Hardy and the memorable moments of his WWE career so far. "Rooftops" by Lost Prophets is the background music for this video.
We return to the Pepsi Center, where General Manager William Regal is standing in the center of the ring, still with a rather scruffy-looking collar. The ring is adorned with a red carpet, and a large table, with a contract resting on top, is in the ring.
