Well here's my first Raw show again (the very long one)

It shows highlights of all the matches of the night…including Scott Hall beating RVD…3 minute warning beating Too Cool…Edge beating Jericho…Benoit Defeating Orton…Undertaker beating Angle and of course…Brock Lesnar beating Shawn Michaels.
When the video ends, we are taken backstage where Eric Bischoff is looking into the camera with a big smile on his face. The fans begin to booo at the first sight of him.
Eric: The road to Wrestlemania has now ended, and it ended with Shawn Michaels not being able to grasp the World Heavyweight championship
the crowd boo
Eric: However tonight, the road to Backlash will begin. Tonight we will have a 7 man turmoil match to determine the new number 1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship

Lillian Garcia HERE ARE YOU WINNERS…..THE A…P…A.
J.R. Well the APA have beaten MNM here tonight.
The APA celebrate in the middle of the ring.
The scene from inside the ring disappears from the screen, We are taken inside of the General managers office.
Bischoff and the Coach are sitting down watching the match on a monitor.
Bischoff: Not a bad way to kick off raw if I say so myself.
Coach: But what a way we are going to finish…a 7 man turmoil match, for the number 1 contendership spot for the world heavyweight title, on the line.
Bischoff: Oh that reminds me
Bischoff pulls a piece of paper out of his pocket
Bischoff: Written on this piece of paper…are the 7 people who will be in the turmoil match tonight, do me a favour coach and go inform them about it please.
Coach: Will do Mr Bischoff
Coach gets up, takes the piece of paper and opens it
Coach: …..I thought you were only joking when you said…HE wasn’t going to be in the match.
Bischoff: No Coach…I meant everything I said.
Both men smirk before Coach leaves.
commercial break
When Raw returns we are taken into the locker room.
The crowd cheer as Shawn Michaels comes into the shot…he is sitting on a bench…looking at the floor, seemingly oblivious to all the chatting guys around him.
The camera pans out, we see that the chatting guys consist of Rhyno, Simon Dean, Edge, Maven, Test and Albert.
The door opens and Coach walks in…everyone in the locker room goes quiet.
Coach looks at his piece of paper and then looks around at everyone in the room.
Shawn Michaels stands up and looks at Coach with the others.
Coach: Well guys…I’m afraid there’s only one person in this room who Bischoff has decided to put into the turmoil match tonight…It is a man who put on a Show stopping, NO, show stealing performance, last night at Wrestlemania 21…Someone who was taken to the limits, and did Raw proud.
The crowd start to chant H….B…K H…B…K.
Coach: I think you know who I’m talking about…THE ONE… THE ONLY……………………………………………………………………………………………EDGE.
A big grin appears on Edge’s face, the other guys congratulate him…HBK gives him a pat on the back and then approaches Coach.
HBK: SO…I’m not in the match
Coach: No..you are not in the match Shawn
the crowd boo
HBK: OK….did Eric happen to give you a reason why.
Coach: As a matter of fact, he did…now let me try and remember this word from word…it was something along the lines of…you had your chance at Wrestlemania…and you screwed up…hahahahaha.
Coach leaves…Some of the other guys begin to laugh, one being Edge.
Shawn starts to luck down at the floor again, Edge grabs him by the shoulder.
Edge: What’s up Shawn, you’ve been acting depressed all day..it’s as though you have nothing good happening in your life..oh that’s right, you don’t (he smirks). Lets face it Shawn… you are lightyears past your prime, i mean I’d be upset if I was in your situation, lets look at the facts. You work your ass off to win the Royal Rumble, you give all the blood, sweat and energy you have, to beat 29 other men, and for what….So you can go to Wrestlemania and reclaim that glory that you once had.. reclaim it, for perhaps the very last time..and then…when you finally get to Wrestlemania, Brock Lesnar denies you that glory…all the blood, all the sweat…all the energy you gave…it was for nothing.
So I don’t blame you for being depressed Shawn… but you have to realise that you are no longer destined for the glory…you are no longer destined for the World Heavyweight championship for 2 reasons…the first being that the world heavyweight championship, is destined for me..the second being, that you WERE a great superstar back in the day Shawn…but now you are nothing but a HAS BEEN.
The locker room is silent…anticipating what Shawn’s response will be.
Michaels turns around and looks up at Edge.
Shawn: You know what Edge...your right…I am a liiiiittle depressed about working so hard for…but not getting the World heavyweight title.. I am a liiiitle upset about the fact that it could have very well been my last opportunity to hold the championship gold… but Edge, personally, I would like someone who knows about glory..to judge mine.
Shawn turns around and goes to exit the locker room….SMACK…Edge cheap shots him from behind and pretty soon a brawl has started between the two.
The other guys in the locker room are cheering them on…after about 30 seconds of fist fighting, 7 or 8 refs run into the locker room and break them up…they take Shawn out of the locker room (against his will).
Edge: YOU WANT GLORY…I’LL SHOW YOU GLORY, WHEN I BECOME CHAMP AT
BACKLASH.
We leave the locker room scene and are taken back into Bischoff’s office. Eric is sorting out some paperwork on his desk, someone knocks on the door.
Bischoff: Come in
We hear the door opening, Bischoff looks up and smiles when he sees who’s entering.
Bischoff: Well, well……if it isn’t Spike Dudley.
The crowd cheer as Spike Dudley enters the camera shot, Eric and Spike shake hands.
Bischoff: So Spike what brings you here.
Spike: Well Mr Bischoff, I was talking to my brothers over the phone a few days ago…their on the other side of the country at the moment as you know…anyway they mentioned that…I might be able to get a job here.
The smile drops from Eric’s face.
Bischoff: oh….do you mean a job like, an interviewer, ring announcer, commentator
Spike: No, a job as a wrestler.
Bischoff: Spike…I’m not sure.
Spike: Why not?
Bischoff: Well…this is the WWE…this is Monday night Raw…this is Eric Bischoff’s Monday night Raw, this is where the best wrestlers in the world perform…and to put it frankly Spike…I’m not sure if you could, cut it.
Spike: hmmm Well I’m pretty sure that I can, cut it.
Bischoff: Ok, I’ll tell you what…I’m going to give you a trial.
Spike: Well thank you Mr Bischoff, I’ll not let you down….when is it.
Bischoff: …it’s next
Spike: NEXT….but I havn’t got my gear or
Bischoff: I’m afraid you’ll have to take it or leave it Spike.
Spike looks quite angry about this, but he calmly says.
Spike: I’ll take it
Spike turns and leaves Bischoff’s office.
A commercial is played advertising tickets for WWE live events
it ends and we are taken to ringside…Spike Dudley is in the middle of the ring waiting for his opponent.
J.R.: How unfair is this, for poor Spike Dudley?
King: What do you mean how unfair? Eric Bischoff is giving him an opportunity to get a job here on RAW.
J.R.: But Spike Dudley was not prepared to wrestle here tonight
King: He should just be grateful that he’s getting to wrestle
J.R.: ….So who will his opponent be?
There’s a silence in the arena, as everyone waits for Spike’s opponent
……….

music: WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL WELL IT’S THE BIG SHOW
Pyro goes off as the biggest member of the NWO makes his way to the ring.
Spike is standing in the ring shaking his head in disbelief.
Big Show VS Spike Dudley
Big Show gets onto the ring apron, Spike Dudley starts delivering frantic punches to him before he gets into the ring.
However they seem to have no effect on Show, who just shoves Spike Dudley over with one hand…Big Show steps over the top rope and enters the ring.
Spike quickly gets back up and again starts frantically clubbing Show.
Show grabs Spike by the arm and pulls him into a huge clothesline, which seems to knock Spike out.
The arena suddenly starts to boo, Eric Bischoff has appeared on the stage with a microphone in hand.
Big Show grabs Spike under his armpits, lifts him up and throws him into the corner.
He follows it up with a thunderous chop to the chest, making Spike cry out it pain.
Bischoff: Come on Spike, you told me you could cut it.
Big Show delivers another chop, which again makes Spike cry out in pain…He then whips Spike into the opposite corner so hard that the impact of hitting the turnbuckles makes him fall to the mat.
Bischoff: Come on Spike, you need to impress me, I’m not going to hire you so you can make the other guys look good.
Big Show begins to taunt Spike telling him to get up. Spike does so, holding his back in pain. He staggers over to Show, who then lifts him up above his head, in a gorilla press slam position.
He throws Spike Dudley over the top rope, to the outside.
Bischoff: Are you just going to take that Spike.
Big Show begins taunting the crowd in the ring.. he doesn’t notice Spike crawling underneath the ring.
When Show stops taunting, he looks over the top rope and sees that Spike has gone, he looks puzzled.
He steps over the top rope and exits the ring…he begins to look around for Spike.

Spike bounces off the ropes and runs towards Show. But Show grabs him around the waist and delivers a sidewalk slam.
Bischoff: Oh no Spike, you were beginning to impress me.
Big Show lifts Spike up he delivers a stalling vertical suplex, keeping Spike in the air for a good 15 seconds.
Show looks like he’s having fun… he laughs at seeing Spike Dudley using the ropes to get up.
But when he approaches him, Spike delivers a kick to the midsection….and another one…and another one.
This causes Show to bend down enough for Spike to grab his head. He runs up the turnbuckles hoping to deliver the Dudley dog.
But Show just throws him over the top rope to the outside again…Spike’s upper body crashes off the steel steps on the way down.
Bischoff: Still think you can cut it Spike.
Big Show goes to the outside and picks up Spike…he lifts him up above his head and then drops him chest first onto the crowd barrier.
Bischoff: You should have taken the Ring announcer job.
The fans start a ..BIG SHOW SUCKS chant…Show picks Spike up and puts him into a bearhug…he charges and drives Spike’s back into the ringpost.. he doesn’t let go, but once again lifts Spike over his head, this time he throws him over the top rope back into the ring.
Big Show gets in the ring himself stopping the refs count.
Bischoff : Is that all you’ve got Spike.
Big Show signals for the chokeslam….. Spike slowly gets up and turns around, Show clasps his big hand around his throat.
Bischoff: Oh well Spike.. it was a good try… just not good enough.
Show goes for the chokeslam, but Spike starts biting Show’s hand.
Show lets go off him, and looks at one of his fingers, which is beginning to bleed… this makes him angry.
Spike is leaning back on the ropes.. Big Show runs at him and tries to boot him in the face… but Spike ducks underneath Show’s leg… this cause Show to get into a uncomfortable position on the top rope.
Bischoff: WHAT THE HELL
Show gets off the rope...he bends over holding his groin in pain. Spike grabs his head and runs up the turnbuckles.

But Show doesn’t pin him, instead he picks him up and places his upperbody in between his legs (like he’s going to powerbomb him), he lifts him up..SMACK….HE DELIVERS THE ALLEYOOPA.
Bischoff: I told you Spike, your not good enough to be on Raw
But Show is still not done…he positions himself to deliver the chokeslam and waits for Spike to get up……………………………………………. He realises that Spike isn’t going to get up any time soon, Big Show walks over to him and grabs him by his throat…he pulls him up onto his feet.. before lifting him into the air…. CRASH….

The camera stays focused on Show.. as he leaves the ring.. walks up the ramp and disappears behind the curtain, a few seconds later his music stops and we are taken back to ringside.
Eric Bischoff is in the ring.. Spike is trying to use the ropes to get up.
Bischoff: Well thanks for coming Spike, but your services will not be required here on Monday night Raw, so why don’t you limp home Spike… because your 15 minutes of fame are over… in fact I don’t think it was even 15 minutes….it was more like
Eric smiles.
Bischoff: …..3 MINUTES.
The crowd boo loudly…the tag team champs Rosey and Jamal come through the crowd and enter the ring, Spike barely gets to his feet before they start clubbing and punching away at him.. Spike quickly falls to the mat, at this point Rosey and Jamal begin to stomp him viciously.
They stop, Jamal holds onto Spike legs, Rosey bounces off the ropes and delivers a leg drop to Spike’s upper chest.
Rosey picks him up and throws him into the corner…he delivers a few big right hands, before stepping aside. Jamal charges towards him from the other side of the ring and splashes him.

Bischoff; Oh don’t worry Spike… even though you didn’t quite pass your trial, we still want to give you a farewell gift… and seeing as you’re a Dudley… I think we know just what to give you.
Jamal exits the ring…looks underneath it and pulls out a table, he slides it in the ring, Rosey picks it up and sets it up near to the corner. Jamal picks Spike up as Rosey climbs to the second rope.
Jamal lifts Spike off of his feet and gives him to Rosey……..SMASH…Rosey jumps off the second rope.. powerbombing Spike through the table.

We are then taken to JR and King.
J.R: MY GOD I CANNOT BELIEVE ERIC BISCHOFF…THAT WAS ONE OF THE MUST UNCALLED FOR ASSAULTS I HAVE EVER SEEN.
King: That was pretty brutal… but Spike deserved it.
J.R: How in the hell, did he deserve it?

Paul Heyman enters the camerashot and sits down next to him.
Heyman: How you feeling Brock?
Lesnar looks up at Heyman.
Lesnar: How do I feel…. HOW DO YOU THINK I FEEL.
Lesnar laughs
Lesnar: I FEEL GREAT.
Heyman: And you have good reason to feel great Brock, last night, at Wrestlemania… you silenced the critics…everyone was against you Brock…everyone was thinking that Shawn Michaels was going to take that belt from you, and why?... because he won the Royal Rumble.. pfft… winning the rumble, that doesn’t give you the title.. it gives you a title SHOT… Shawn took that shot, but you dodged the bullet.. and tonight we find out which bullet you’ll dodge next, it doesn’t matter if its, Edge.. Benoit.. Big Show.. Stone Cold.. Kurt Angle, the point is.. at Backlash, you will silence the critics once again.
Lesnar: Your right Paul, I will silence the critics once again… hey you know what… If HBK beat 29 other men, and I beat him… that means I’m better then 29 men.
Heyman: Well of course you are Brock… when was the last time you were beaten.

Heyman: I dunno…. It wouldn’t matter if he was would it.
Lesnar: It doesn’t matter.. who wins this number 1 contendership match tonight… however, maybe after the match is over… we should go down to ringside and offer our congratulations to the winner.
Heyman smiles menacingly and then begins to laugh.
We leave the locker room and are taken backstage… The Rock is walking somewhere, the crowd cheer upon his appearance.

Music: I SPIT IN THE FACE OF PEOPLE WHO DON’T WANT TO BE COOL
Carlito’s music continues to play as he is announced and makes his entrance to the ring.

Rob Van Dam’s music begins toplay… the pyro goes off and Van Dam appears on the stage to a big ovation.

He then gets into the ring and poses for the crowd…meanwhile Carlito takes an apple from the basket in the corner of the ring and begins to throw it up and calmly catch it in his right hand.
Van Dam is given a microphone and his music stops.
Carlito: Welcome to the Cabana Mr.. Monday night… Now my first question is very simple, how do you feel about losing to Scott Hall last night at Wrestlemania?
Rob goes to answer, but Carlito interrupts him.
Carlito: actually das a stupid question… You lost at the biggest event in this company’s history.. das not cool... losing in front of all those people must have been.
Rob interrupts him.
RVD: Your right Carlito it wasn’t cool… it wasn’t cool that the NWO helped Scott Hall to beat me.
Carlito: Oh stop your whining, you should be lucky that you had a match at wrestlemania.. Carltio didn’t have a match at wrestlemania.. Carlito should have had a match at wrestlemania.
RVD: Look dude, why don’t you stop your whining.
Carlito: What, Carlito isn’t whining.
RVD: err yeah Carlito is whining.
Carlito: no im not
