Several minutes went by as Melina still groaned in pain. John had enough of the move and climbed up on the apron. Beth threw Melina down on the mat, going and swinging at John who jumped down. Melina got to her feet as Beth instantly hit her in the back. Beth ran backwards wanting momentum to hit a move. John reached in the ring grabbing Beth’s boot as he tripped her making her fall.

John Cena: It sure feels great to be back here in Chicago!
*Cena’s words filled the arena as the fans went crazy in excitement*

*The crowd could be heard booing one of the bosses as she kept talking*
Stephanie: And of the matter of Shawn Michaels interfering in the match earlier tonight I have decided to make a match for Extreme Rules. Shawn since you don’t like my husband for making you lose last week, then it will be Shawn Michaels taking on Triple H in a Stretcher Match.
*The packed crowd cheered for the match as Stephanie’s locker room door burst open and a man walked inside.
Chris Jericho: Stephanie we need to talk.
Stephanie: Since I’m addressing matters what would you like to talk about?
Chris: John Cena trying to attack me. He’s going to end up injuring me if he’s not stopped.
Stephanie: Chris you did attack him from behind last week.
Chris: So that makes it okay for him to be able to attack me? Please help me.
*Chris got on his knees grabbing Stephanie’s hand begging for her help*
Chris: Please Stephanie; he will hurt me if you don’t help me.
Stephanie: Get up Jericho. If you are so scared then John must stay thirty feet away from you. Happy?
*Chris smiled getting off the ground shaking Stephanie’s hand*

Chris: My match?
Stephanie: Yes, you will be taking on John Cena.

Cena: What?
*John put his hands on his hips angered that Todd stopped him on his quest*
Todd: What are your thoughts on Jericho talking to Stephanie about keeping you thirty feet away from him?
Cena: He did what?

The Hardy Boys stood in the ring as the ref held the World Tag Team Titles waiting for Cody and Ted to come out. Their music began to play, but the tag team didn’t show. The Hardy Boys stood waiting as the crowd began to boo from behind them. The Hardy Boys turned seeing Ted and Cody hop over the guard railing, surprised that the brothers had spotted them.
Ted walked around the ring as Cody walked around the other. Both wanted to sneak attack the brothers but it was clear that wasn’t going to happen. The ref hung the belts on the rings as the bell rang and the match started. Ted and Cody slid in the ring trying to take advantage of the Hardy’s.
Ted clobbered Matt with a clothesline before dropping down with a big elbow. Cody Rhodes grabbed Jeff by the legs giving him an Alabama Slam. Cody and Ted slid out of the ring each grabbing a ladder and sliding it back into the ring. Matt and Jeff were up by this point each fighting with one of the boys grabbing at the ladder.
Matt hit Ted in the face knocking Ted back which gave Matt enough time to run and clothesline Ted over the top rope. Jeff had Cody back against the ropes before moving and grabbing a ladder picking it up, his brother helped picking it up as the brothers held one side each. The duo ran at Cody running the ladder into the man and sending him over the top rope to the floor. The brothers saw Ted on the apron as the rammed the ladder into his gut sending him to the floor.
Jeff put up a ladder in the ring as Matt stood guard. Ted and Cody found each other on the outside as they strategized about a plan. Jeff began to climb the ladder as Ted and Cody got on the apron. Matt ran doing a baseball slide as he knocked the other ladder into their ankles sending them off balance and throat first into the top rope. Both fell to the ground scooting back away from the ring and up the ramp as Jeff Hardy got the title down making the bell sound.
Lillian Garcia: here is your winner and new World Tag Team Champions. The Hardy Boys!
*The crowd went crazy as Jeff descended from the ladder handing his brother the title from their easy win. Ted and Cody were shown at the top of the ramp a mic in their hands now*
Ted: You think you really won that match? Well you cheated, we should be the champions.
*The crowd booed as one of the crew members handed each other the brothers a mic*
Jeff: It’s not our fault our opponents’ are two sissy girls who don’t know how to fight.
*The crowd cheered as both Cody and Ted laid in anger*
Cody: The Hardy Boys are nothing but two washed up brothers.
Ted: We could beat them at any match of our choosing, any match we wanted.
Matt: Then how about you put your boots wear your mouth is. Since this Sunday is Extreme Rules how about we take on you two in any match you want?
Ted: You would sure like that wouldn’t you Matt?
*Ted and Cody got to their feet hearing the crowd boo them again*
Ted: Then you’re on, but those titles you just stole from me and Cody they are on the line. Deal?
Jeff: Deal
*Ted and Cody walked to the back as the cameras focused on the brothers holding their gold before going to commercial break*

Jim Ross: Welcome back to Raw ladies and gentlemen. Myself and Michael Cole want to share you updates on both John Cena and CM Punk.
Michael Cole: The terrible attacks by Chris Jericho on John Cena and Big Show on CM Punk have sent both men to the hospital.
Jim Ross: At this time we know CM Punk has suffered a concussion and might have broken some ribs.
Michael Cole: And all we know at this moment is John is on route to one of the local hospitals here in Chicago. Please stay tuned to WWE Locker-Room for any latest developments.
*There was a moment of silence between the announcers before one spoke up*
Jim: On a brighter note this Sunday is Extreme Rules.
Michael: That’s right JR and what a lineup we have so far. Starting with Shawn Michaels taking on Triple H in a stretcher match.
Jim: Stephanie made the match after Shawn cheated Triple H out of his match earlier tonight.
Michael: One must wonder why Shawn would do something like that.
Jim: We’ll see the risk was worth it in the Stretcher Match.
Michael: We go from friend turning on friend to a man being a coward.
Jim: Chris Jericho has attacked John Cena from behind the last two Raws, and tonight he even sent the man to the hospital. I wonder what John has stored as he takes on Jericho for the Intercontinental Championship in a Blood Match.
Michael: I wonder what weapon John plans to use on Jericho as Jericho used a mic and a baseball bat the last two Raws.
Jim: I have a feeling that thirty feet rule will only anger John before Sunday.
Michael: Also this Sunday the World Heavyweight Championship will be on the line.
Jim: And we will find out who Batista will be taking on right now.
Batista’s music began to play as the Animal stepped out to the roaring arena. Batista’s headed to the ring with the belt around his waist. Batista grabbed a mic raising it to his lips.
Batista: I must say Chicago you guys are amazing.
*The fans cheered for Batista as a smile pressed against his face*
Batista: It’s been a great week now that I’m World Heavyweight Champion, but I think we all know why I’m here. This Sunday is Extreme Rules and I’m here to find out who my opponent will be.
*The crowd cheered as Batista took off his title and raised it in the air*
Batista: I have been informed that I will be defending this in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. Which is fine by me, I can beat whoever in any kind of match.
*The fans began to chant Batista’s name over and over*
Batista: Settle down everyone we don’t even know who my opponent is yet. I think we have all have waited too long. So whoever my mystery opponent is come on down here and show yourself.
*The arena grew silent as Batista watched the top of the stage. The silence was short lived as pyro shot up from the stage. Kane stepped out pulling his elbow pad back as he walked down the ramp*
Batista: Kane if you get in this ring you will regret it.
*Kane kept coming climbing in the ring as Batista began to punch at the man. It would look like Batista would have the upper hand on one of the men he beat to win the World Title last week, but Kane nailed Batista with an uppercut sending him back. Kane drove his foot into the side of Batista’s head knocking him to the ground.
Batista quickly got to his feet as Kane tried another Big Boot but missed. Batista ran at Kane giving him a big spear. Batista picked up Kane and tossed him over the top rope and to the floor as he picked up the title and held it high in the air. Batista posed for the crowd as Raw went off the air*
