Sorry it's up so quickly, but I want to get the show already done up, as I have nearly finished my bits of the first PPV. Tomorrow, SmackDown and The Rumble will most likely be up.

Segment 1 (8.00pm-8.15)
We see the Raw introduction and then a video package of last week. Highlighting the split of Triple H and the rest of Evolution, the staredown between Triple H and Kevin Nash, until the return of Steve Austin. We see the huge Stunner that Stone Cold gave to Triple H, and then the staredown between him and Kevin Nash, ending the show. The video package ends, as we cut to Raw, as the pyrotechnics blast off, around the Raw set staging area. Union Underground's "Across the Nation" blares over the PA system, as we go to the commentary table at ringside, where JR and Jerry "The King" Lawler are standing by. Jr, "Welcome fans, to WWE Raw. We are live here tonight, from the Thomas & Mack Center, in Las Vegas, Nevada. And what a show we have for you tonight!" Lawler, "That's right Jr, Shawn Michaels will be facing Christian, and Randy Orton has challenged Triple H to a one-on-one match! And we have questions to answer, from last week's Raw." Jr, "That's right King, whose side is Kevin Nash on, and why did Stone Cold return last week?" Lawler, "Also Jr, The Royal Rumble is less than a week away, and we only have one match announced so far!" Jr, "Well Bischoff has promised to announce some tonight, so we will see." Lawler, "Here's out first match."
Handicap Match: Batista vs. Al Snow and Maven
Closing Moments: Even with the handicap, Batista has dominated the couple of minutes so far. Batista throws Maven over the top rope, to the outside. Snow runs at Batista, but he back body-drops him over the top rope, onto a standing Maven! When both men are up, Batista dives over the top with a Plancha! Batista whips Al into the steel steps, with incredible force. Batista drags Maven up by his neck, and throws him over the top rope, back into the ring! Batista comes in, as Maven stumbles, right into a Spinebuster! Maven is out! Snow gets back into the ring, to be met with a boot to the gut, and a Sit-Out Powerbomb!
Batista pins both of them, for the pin!
Winner: Batista in 5.00
Lawler, "Jr, Batista just destroyed them!" Jr, "I think he's trying to send a message to Bischoff King."
We cut backstage, to see The Coach with Eric Bischoff. Coach, "Eric, can you announce any more match for The Royal Rumble Pay Per View?" Bischoff, "I sure can Coach. The Dudley Boyz will defend their Tag-Titles, in a 6-team Table's Elimination Match..." Coach, "And the other teams are..." Bischoff, "Hold on, I was coming to that. The other teams will be 3 Minute Warning, Al Snow and Maven, Randy Orton and Batista, and my guys, Lance Storm and William Regal! Plus one other un-named tag-team But oh, I forgot to mention, that The Dudleyz will also defend the titles tonight in a rematch from last week, and if they lose, they will not be in the Tables match, which wil be changed to 4 teams!" Coach, "That seems a bit unfair..." Bischoff, "Shut up, before I fire your ass!" Coach, "Also, will there be any World Championship match at The Rumble?" Bischoff, "That's what you'll find out, in a minute." Eric walks off, as we go to a break...

Segment 2 (8.15-8.30)
We come back to Raw, as "Back in Black" by AC/DC is playing, as Eric Bischoff comes down the ring, to some heat from the crowd. He climbs up the steps, and gets into the ring. He demands a microphone, as an official at ringside hands him one. Bischoff, "Now as you know, we have two Raw matches signed, for our first Pay Per View of 2004. The Tag Teamn Table contest, and a Cage match for the US Title. Now anyone, who thinks they are worthy of facing Triple H for the World Heavyweight Championship, come out here now!" With that, the glass shatters, as Stone Cold comes out, to a huge pop. He strides down the ring, and gets in, as Eric Bischoff is fuming. Bischoff, "What the hell do you think you're doing? You don't deserve a title shot, and you took out one of my top stars, last week! What do you thnik you're doing here?" Austin, "What?! What?! What?! Stone Cold says this. I'm sick and tired, of wrestling on Smackdown! I see Triple H, the World Heavyweight Champ on Raw. And I see his dirty tactics, of winning each match. Week after week. He has held the World Title belt, for far too long! He is undeserving, of that title. I am here Bischoff, to win the Championship off him! To give some respect, back to that title!" Bischoff, "Respect? Helmsley is by far, the most deserving champion, the Raw roster has got. And you waltz on in here, and expect to get a title shot, just like that?! You haven't even shown your worth, that you deserve one!" Austin, "Well then, in that case, give me a way, to prove my worth Bisch!" Bischoff, "Fine then, you can face The Big Red Machine Kane!!! The winner, will get a title shot at the Pay Per View,...deal?" Eric puts out his hand, as Austin shakes it. Eric smiles, and goes to take his hand away, but Austin keeps his grasp firmly on. Eric's grin, turns slowly into a frown. Bischoff, "What are you doing?" Austin suddenly boots Bischoff in the gut, and drills him with a huge Stunner, to a massive crowd pop! Steve Austin poses on all 4 turnbuckles, as camera's flash away. Lawler, "That son of a..." Jr, " Calm down King!" Lawler, "Oh well, hey, it's ytime for my match now!" Lawler gets out of his seat, takes off his crown and jacket, and gets in the ring to a huge pop!
Jerry "The King" Lawler and Trish Stratus vs. Steven Richards and WWE Women's Champion Victoria
The team of Richards and Victoria have dominated most of the match up, with the intergender rules, not coming into the match yeat, as we go into the closing stages: Richards whips Lawler into the corner, and follows in with a clothesline. He whips Jerry to the opposite corner, follows and goes for a Splash, but Lawler moves, and Richards tastes turnbuckles! Jerry stagers around the ring, and Trish tags herself in! Steven gets up, and walks right into Trish's clothesline! Stratus quickly tags Lawler back in!
Victoria gets into the ring, and takes a huge kick to the temple from Trish, as
Richards knocks down Lawler with a big Stevie Kick! Stratus stomps on Victoria, but is pulled around by the hair from behind, by Steven, as the crowd boos. He knees her in the gut, and holds her in place for something by Victoria? But Lawler spins him around from behind, kicks him in the gut, and hits The Puling Piledriver! As Stratus puts Victoria in a headlock, springboards off the corner, and nails The Stratusfaction! Lawler pins Richards, one...two...three!
Winners: Jerry "The King" Lawler and Trish Stratus in 6.00
Lawler and Stratus celebrate, as Trish goes back up the ramp, and Jerry returns to his announcing position! An irate Richards starts yelling at Victoria, and storms up the ramp, with her following behind.

We see a video package, for "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Stiener.
It ends with the words flashing, "Returning soon!"
We go to the backstage area, where Coach is with Randy Orton, Batista, and Ric Flair. Coach, "First of all, Nature Boy, why did you refuse, to hand Triple H his Sledgehammer last week, on Raw?" Flair, "Coach, Woo! I'm sick of being told what to do, by Hunter. I'm sick of helping him win matches, and I am sick of his dirty tactics, woo! I came out to see, if he could win a match on his own, without dirty tactics. And I now know, he can't, woooo!" Coach, "Randy and Batista, you two ran down to attack Triple H, after he attacked Ric Flair...?" Orton, "I'm sick of him. He comes to try and help me win my match last week, when I told him not to! He attacks my mentor, Ric! So me and Dave had had enough with Helmsley! Coach, "And why have you challenged Triple H tonight?" Orton, "To prove, that I can wrestle just as good as he can, and to prove, that he isn't what he says he is, That damn good! Cause i'm the best, I know it!"
We see Triple H watching a monitor backstage, laughing at the comments, that Randy Orton just made.
The Dudley Bombs drop as the pyro's explode. As the Dudleyz walk down the ring, to a large pop from the crowd. They are wearing the tag titles arounds their waists, which they won last week. William Regal's music plays, as he comes out, with Lance Storm behind him, to some mild heat. Suddenly out the curtain comes Justin Credible!!! Jr, "Oh my god, what the hell is he doing here?!" Lawler, "I thought he was in XPW Jr!" Storm looks at Credible strangely, as Justin taps William on the shoulder. Regal turns around, and suddenly Storm and Credible lay him out with a huge Double Superkick!!! Jr, "What the hell is going on here?!" Lawler, "Have the Impact Players reunited???" The crowd pops huge, as Storm and Credible beat down Regal on the stage! Storm goes back through the curtain, and comes back out with a microphone...Storm, "If I could be serious for a minute! Regal, i'm sick of you. I always had to carry our team to victory. You were the liability, in our team. And you proved that more, when you caused us to lose my tag titles. Credible, "So Lance rang me up, and said, why don't we get back together. We could rule the tag team division, here in the WWE." Storm, "And Dudleyz, I hope you're listening! Because those tag titles of your's are ours! Credible, "Now that's not just the coolest, not just the best..." Storm, "That's a guarantee, from Calgary, Alberta Canada!" Credible, "And that, is Just Incredible!"
The Dudley Boyz suddenly get out of the ring, and begin to go up the ramp.
Segmen 4 (8.45-9.00)
But suddenly over the barricade through through the crowd come 3 Minute Warning! They ambush the Dudley Boyz on the ramp, and begin brawling with them! We see the Impact Players laughing on the stage, as they head through the curtain! D-Von and Jamal go over the barricade and into the crowd, as Bubba and Rosey brawl on the outside! D-Von grabs a fans glass drink bottle, and smashes it over Jamal's head, busting him open! Bubba whips Rosey into the steel stairs, and he goes flying over them! Bubba looks under the ring, and finds a table! He slides it into the ring, as Rosey clubs him from behind, and throws Bubba into the ring. Lawler, "Is this a sneak preview of things to come, at The Royal Rumble?"
In the crowd, Jamal has fought back, and whips D-Von into a concrete wall! He then grabs a chair, and brains him over the head! In the ring, Rosey has the table set up, and is about to powerbomb Bubba throuh it. But Bubba score with a low blow, whips Rosey off the ropes, and Flapjacks him through the table! We see in the crowd, that Jamal has put D-Von on a table, and is up on the balcony! Jamal dives off the balcony, a good 15 feet, and puts D-Von through the table with a splash!!! The crowd chants "Holy Shit!" over and over! Jr, "Oh my god, we need some medical attention for those two right now! Regal and Morley are now in the ring with chairs. They spin Bubba around, and knock him out cold, with a Conchairto!!! Lawler, "Ouch!" Suddenly Al Snow and Maven run down to the ring, but they recieve chair shots as well! Batista and Randy Orton are now in the ring behind Regal and Morley! They spin them round, Orton dropkicks the chair into Regal's face, as Batista superkicks Morley's chair back into his face! Regal and Morley roll out of the ring looking pissed off, as Batista and Orton stand dominant in the ring!
Break
*We see highlights of the last segment, of Jamal diving off the Balcony, and splashing D-Von through the table*
Jr, "That was one of the most sickening things i've even seen, and I sure hope D-Von Dudley is ok..." Lawler, "But Jr, now we've got an update on Jeff Hardy!!!" Jr, "We sure have King. We now know, that Jeff Hardy broke a rib in his body, but will hopefully be returning for The Royal Rumble!" Lawler, "He's lucky he didn't do anymore damage Jr!"
We go to the back, and see Eric Bischoff, with an angry look on his face, holding his neck after the Stunner from Austin! Coach comes into the GM's office. Coach, "Eric, could you tell us any more information, about the Royal Rumble Match?" Bischoff, "I certainly can, there will be 20 wrestlers off Raw in its own exclusive Rumble. The winner, will face the World Heavyweight Champion, at Wrestlemania!" Coach, "Can you tell us any participants, in the match?" Bischoff, "I can tell you, that Chris Jericho, and Tommy Dreamer will be returning, on Sunday! And I can also say, that 3 ex. ECW World Champions, will be in The Rumble also. 2 are formely from WWE, one has even held a WWE Title! But i'm giving no more information away!" Coach, "Thankyou..."
Coach leaves the room, as Chief Morley and William Regal walks in...Bischoff, "What the hell do you think you were doing out there. You bailed the ring. You should've beaten down those arseholes!" Morley, "But Eric, there are other things, more important than that." Regal, " Yeah, like Lance. If that bloody lumbering ******* dwarf thinks he can beat on William Regal, he's got another thing coming, the imputant toerag!" Bischoff, "Ok, I can see you want him in a match, so at The Royal Rumble, you two can be in the match, and so will The Impact Players as well!" Regal, "Well if you see him, tell him that he has something coming from me!" William storms out the room. Bischoff, "Now Cheif onto other things, go and beat up Austin for me!"

Segment 6 (9.15-9.30)
We are backstage somewhere, as we see Eric Bischoff with Triple H, talking to someone. But we can't see who it is, as they are in the shadows. Bischoff, "Ok, so you're in with us as well? That's great. Everyone will get a shock, when they see you with us! Or maybe some people, will be lying in pools, of their own blood!" Eric starts laughing evilily! Bischoff, "Trips, you know you gotta win at The Rumble?" HHH, "Yeah, you can count on me to!" Bischoff, "Well you'll be guaranteed to, with the plan that I told you about! Hey, what the hell.

As the Raw General Manager, Eric Bischoff, comes down to the ring, to some heat from the crowd! Eric has a mic with him..."First of all, I would like to announce that the match tonight, between Triple H and Randy Orton, will be a non title match!" The crowd give Eric humongous heat, at this announcement! Bichoff, "Now you know i'm a man of my words, and that I said that the winner between Austin and Kane, would get a World Title Shot, at The Royal Rumble Pay Per View. Well it will be Triple H, defending the title, against Stone Cold, after he won, by an amazing fluke, earlier tonight! Well I have another announcement, to make for that match. I feel, that on Sunday, the match needs a special referee. As it really will be a monumentous occasion! So I have appointed a Special Guest Referee!" The crowd pops huge!

Main Event:
Non-Title Match: Triple H (WWE World Heavyweight Champion) vs. Randy Orton w/Ric Flair
"Time to play the Game!" The lights dim, and out comes Triple H, to a roar of gigantic heat, from the crowd. He tips water from his bottle over his head, and walks down the ramp. Triple H gets on the apron, and does his usual, "Fountain of Furry." He gets in the ring, as the lights come back to normal. Randy Orton's music hits, as he comes down to the ring with The Nature Boy, to a good pop! They both slide into the ring, but HHH slides out. The bell rings, to signify the start of the match. But HHH tells the ref, "Get him out of here." (Pointing to Flair) Senior referee, Earl Hebner, 0forces Ric to go out of the ring. But HHH is still not happy, and forces Hebner to make Flair go to the back, which he grudgingly does so! Randy is looking the opposite way, as HHH sneaks in and attacks him from behind, to start the match. HHH beats him into the corner, and stomps a mud-hole in him. He mocks Austin with the middle finger signal to the crowd, but turns around, to be tackled to the mat by Orton. Randy now beats the shit out of HHH, with right hands. He rebounds off the ropes, but HHH is back up, and takes him down with the high knee! He pins, for the two count. HHH grabs him by the neck, and tosses him through the ropes, to the outside! HHH grabs him, and whips him shoulder first into the steel steps! He then grabs him back up, and drops him throat first, on the barricade! Helmsley then slams his head, off the announcers table, to knock him down! Hunter takes the table apart, and grabs a monitor! He gets ready to swing, but Hebner takes the monitor away from him!

Orton nails HHH with a dropkick! He then goes to the top rope, and leaps with a cross-body, but HHH rolls through for the pin, one...two...kickout! Randy runs at HHH, but gets the Facebuster to the Knee, to send Orton staggering! HHH then tosses Randy out of the ring, over the top rope! HHH thinks he has, but Orton managed to hold onto the ropes. HHH has his back turned, and is posing to the crowd, who are cheering! HHH smiles, thinking they are cheering for him, but suddenly he is taken over with a roll up from behid, one...two...three!!!
Winner: Randy Orton in 8.00
Jr, "Yes! Randy Orton has just beaten Triple H! It is a pity, it was a non-title match though!" Lawler is sitting their with his mouth wide open, speechless! Randy Orton poses on the ropes celebrating, to a massive pop, from the sold out crowd! HHH is holding his head in shock, not believing what has happened! HHH suddenly looks angry, and flings Orton down from the top turnbuckle, boots him in the gut, and drills Randy with The Pedigree! The crowd is giving HHH huge heat! He rolls Orton to the outside, gets on the Announcer's Table, and drags Randy on, as well. He then drills Orton with a Second Pedigree, as Jr and Lawler dive out of the way, straight through the Announcer's Table! Randy is laying in bits of table, as HHH now drags the deadly Sledgehammer out, from underneath the ring! Jr, "Oh come on, enough is enough!" But suddenly, "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair rushes down to ringside! But HHH turns around, and brains him with the Sledgehammer!!! Flair is out cold, and is a bloody mess! HHH now raises the Sledgehammer in the air, and brings it down on the out cold, Randy Orton's ribs! Jr, "This is sickening!" Lawler, "For once Jr, I think Hunter HAS gone too far tonight!" HHH rolls the body of Flair into the ring, and once again, raises the Sledgehammer! But he stops, as his attention is drawn to the stage, as "Glass Shatters"! Cause here comes Stone Cold, to a huge pop, and he has his own Sledgehammer! He gets in the ring, and HHH swings at his head and misses! Austin knocks the Sledge from HHH's hand with his own Sledge! He drops his own sledge, and starts trading punches with HHH! Austin beats the hell out of HHH! Suddenly we hear the "Woflpac Howl", as Big Sexy Kevin Nash, strides down the ring with a chair! He waits on the outside, as meanwhile in the ring, Austin goes for a Stunner! But HHH pushes him away! Austin turns around, as both men have the same idea, and they knock each other down, with a Double Clothesline! Nash gets in the ring, and surveys the carnage. He waits with the chair. Jr, "What is Nash, going to do here?" Triple H and Steve Austin get up at the same time, as Nash holds the chair high in the air! Lawler, "Who is he gonna nail Jr?!" At first, Kevin looks like he is about to hit Austin! But he turns and drills Helmsley over the head with the chair! Austin is now fully to his feet, as him and Kevin Nash, are locked in an intense staredown! Nash puts out his hand. Austin cautiosuly, shakes hands with Big Sexy! They raise their arms in the air! Jr, "Well it looks, as though there is an allignment here, between Nash and Austin!" Flair is on the outside of the ring checking Orton, as Austin and Nash toast over the body of HHH, with some Steveweisers!
Suddenly we go to the backstage area, where we see Bischoff once again, privately talking to someone in the shadows, who we can't see. Bischoff, "Ok, so you know he's gonna jump here, from SmackDown? Well that's great! So our plan will go into action, at The Royal Rumble! Hahaha! Nobody will be able to stop us!!!"
Jr, "What the hell is this about!?!?!?" Lawler, "We're out of time Jr, thankyou fans for watching the hottest wrestling show, Raw, and we'll see you at The Royal Rumble, this Sunday on Pay Per View!"
