Chapter 20

Raw kicked off with "In Memory of Vince McMahon 1945-2007". Shane McMahon's music hit the announce system and the usually cheerful Shane appeared, with a sad look on his face and walking slowly. He got into the ring, after getting a mic.

"Last week, the foundation of the WWE was rocked as the Chairman, my father, was murdered when his limousine was blown to pieces minutes after No Way Out. Let's take a look." Shane said.

A video was shown of Vince being booed out of the arena and then walking to his limo, which then exploded.

Shane raised the mic to his lips. "Tonight, the murder plot will unfold. I WILL get to the bottom of whoever killed my dad."

Shane dropped the mic and walked backstage.

Raw went to a commercial break with the WWE flag flying at half-mast.

Raw came back and Kellie Pickler was on stage. She then sand, "I Wonder" and the crowd gave her a standing ovation. Kellie walked backstage and the bell rang.

Raw came back with Katharine McPhee singing, "Everywhere I Go" with special lyrics for Vince McMahon. Katharine finished and walked backstage.

"Folks, up next we have Batista and Triple H. It's been said that Batista is in a foul mood, not because of the death of Vince, but because he has to face the Undertaker at WrestleMania. And one's got to wonder...how together is Triple H? He did lose his father-in-law last week." JR said.

"Ma, bring in the first guy." Shane said to Linda, who was across the room.

Linda opened the door and Donald Trump walked in.

"Mr. Trump, sit down." Shane said.

"I'm sorry about your loss." Trump said.

"Let's cut the drama...and the bullshit, Trump. Did you have any part in No Way Out's murder?" Stephanie asked.

"No, I didn't. Why?" Trump said.

"Why call off the match, out of nowhere? You obviously had to know that something was gonna happen and that the match wouldn't happen." Shane said.

"I don't have time for this." Trump said and rose to his feet.

"YOU killed my father! I'm gonna prove it, Trump!" Stephanie screamed as Trump walked out and Raw went to a commercial break.
