RAW: 30/1/2006

Monday Night RAW was live at the TD Waterhouse Center in Orlando, Florida, just 24 hours removed from an epic Royal Rumble event. Edge and Lita were backstage. Edge said John Cena's victory at Royal Rumble was a fluke and said he will invoke his rematch clause tonight! Edge said he will not be remembered as a transitional champion and will take back what is rightfully his!

Triple H walked up to him and said that's nice, great speech. He told Edge that unfortunately for him, he also had a WWE Title match against John Cena tonight by order of Vince McMahon. Triple H told him to take it up with the boss if he wants to complain. Triple H walked away, leaving a seething Edge.

In the ring, Vince McMahon came out. Vince said he guaranteed that Shawn Michaels luck would run out at Royal Rumble, and it certainly did! He said that what's the sense of having power if you can't go ahead and abuse it?

Shawn Michaels came down and said he wanted to kick Vince's teeth down his throat. Shawn said he knows if he did that, Vince "Mr. Zero Tolorance" McMahon would fire him. He said maybe he should do the good christian thing and turn the other cheek and just quit. Shawn said if he did that, he knew that Vince McMahon would just sue him for breach of contract..

Shawn said his 3rd option was to turn back the clock and become the old Shawn Michaels again. Shawn said he loved his wife and children too much so that is never EVER going to happen..

Vince said if that's the case then Shawn is screwed way more than Bret Hart was screwed. Shawn proposed a 1-on-1 match between himself and Vince McMahon - presumably at WrestleMania 22..

Vince McMahon said he's not afraid of anybody and says "No Chance in Hell!" and says it will be on his terms. Vince then invited Shawn to commit career suicide and challenged him to hit him in the face. Shane McMahon snuck in from behind and smashed a steel chair across the back of Shawn Michaels and the McMahons left him there...

Backstage, Vince and Shane were interviewed. Shane McMahon said nobody disrespects the McMahon Family. Shane said Bret Hart learned that lesson, Steve Austin learned it, and now Shawn Michaels learned it!

In the first match of the night, Rob Van Damn took on Gene Snitsky, who he defeated with a Five Star Frog Splash.

Backstage, Shelton Benjamin's Mama was yelling at Shelton Benjamin until he left the room. Shelton Benjamin's Mama said she wanted a shoulder rub so Goldust showed up and started rubbing her shoulders. Shelton Benjamin's Mama freaked out and called for Shelton as Goldust did his "You'll never forget" speech.

Maria was then shown at the interview area. "Ladies and Gentlemen, please welcome my guest at this time, he is the 2006 Royal Rumble winner...the Bladewolf!" Bladewolf walked into view to a pop from the fans. He didn't have his metallic mask on anymore, but he did still have his coat he's been using since the end of 2002. "Bladewolf, last night you returned after a month off and won the big one by winning the Royal Rumble match. What is your plan?"

"My plan? Who I will face will be revealed later tonight, but for now...I will sit back and watch the shows, to see if the World Heavyweight Championship or the WWE Championship is something I desire to hold once more."

With that said, he walks away since he had a match tonight against Chavo Guerrero.


In the arena, Chavo's theme hits and out comes the nephew of Eddie Guerrero. He makes his way down the ramp and enters the ring for the biggest match of his life since he is taking on a man who was respected by many and feared by everyone.

OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!

'Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah! Get up, come on get down with the sickness!'

Down with the Sickness plays to a loud pop and out comes the Bladewolf who makes his way down the ramp to the ring. He slides into the ring and stands up, taking off his coat and tosses it aside before his theme dies down.

'Ding! Ding! Ding!'

Chavo avoids Bladewolf's grabs, knowing he cannot allow Bladewolf to get his hands on him. Bladewolf backs Chavo into the corner and goes for a right but Chavo ducks it and hits a few lefts and rights before quickly backing off to avoid getting too confident and blinded by it. Bladewolf walks forward and Chavo runs, looking like he was going for a clothesline when he hits a low dropkick to the knees of the Bladewolf, bringing him down to his knees and Chavo hits a heel kick to the side of the head, bringing the 2006 Royal Rumble winner down.

Chavo stomps on Bladewolf time and time again before he backs off and Bladewolf sits up. Chavo runs, grabs Bladewolf in the process...AND HITS A RUNNING DDT! Chavo hooks the leg but Bladewolf kicks out at two.

Chavo lands some kicks to the ribs of the Bladewolf then grabs his arms and starts stomping on his masked face to keep him down then backs off. Bladewolf starts getting to his feet but Chavo dropkicks him from behind, causing Bladewolf to bounce off the ropes but he holds onto them. Chavo runs and Bladewolf whirls around, nailing a hard clothesline.

Bladewolf grabs Chavo and goes for a release German Suplex but Chavo lands on his feet and Bladewolf turns...INTO AN ENZIGURI! Bladewolf falls to a knee and shakes his head before Chavo lands another dropkick then goes to the top rope and jumps off...AND HITS A FROG SPLASH! HE HOOKS THE LEG! ONE! TWO! THRE-! BLADEWOLF KICKS OUT!

Chavo gets to his feet and applies a hold on Bladewolf's right arm but Bladewolf sits up and grabs him by the throat with his left hand and gets to his feet with Chavo in his grip before he lifts him up...AND PLANTS CHAVO WITH A CHOKESLAM! Bladewolf flips his hair back and does the slit throat taunt before he scoops Chavo up so he's holding him upside down in front of him...THEN NAILS THE TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER! HE HOOKS THE LEGS! ONE! TWO! THREE! THE BLADEWOLF WINS!

'Ding! Ding! Ding!'

Down with the Sickness plays as Bladewolf gets to his feet and flips his hair back before raising his arms and throws them down to summon lightning bolts to the four turnbuckles, causing fire to shoot up in response.

He leaves the ring and heads to the back...


Later

John Cena defended his WWE Championship in a Triple Threat Match against Edge and Triple H. Edge steps outside the ring, wanting Triple H and Cena to fight. Triple H and Cena slug it out in the center and Cena wins an exchange with some flying shoulder tackles, then a corner whip and the vertical suplex gets two. Edge breaks up the count. Hunter with an atomic drop to a nice pop.

They punch some more, then Triple H hits the high knee for two because Edge pulls him off. He's still on the floor. With Edge standing on the apron, they punch some more and then they stop, looking at Edge. They lift him in, then trade punches on him. Edge gets knocked out to the floor, then Cena rams him into the announce table. They do the competing head into the announce table spot. Not necessarily a new spot in triple threats. It's always fun, though.

Back in the ring, Cena gets attacked from behind by Triple H. Then Trips chucks Cena out. Edge puts him head first into the turnbuckle. Edge works on Triple H on the apron, goes for a suplex in, but Cena grabs Triple H's legs and he goes face first into the apron. Nice spot. Cena to the top, he hits a top rope splash onto Edge for two.

Spinning back suplex. Five Knuckle Shuffle time for Cena is stopped by Lita as she pulls down the top rope when Cena goes sailing over the top. Triple H follows up by whipping Cena into the steps. In ring, Triple H with a facebuster on Edge and a clothesline gets him two. Whip into the corner, Edge gets the big boot up on Triple H's face, but Triple H gets a Spinebuster for two. Edge with his neckbreaker into a slam move for two. Whip in by Triple H and then he catches Edge with a sleeper. Edge counters into one of his own. Cena's in, goes for a double FU, but Edge sneaks off and Edge spears Cena while he's got Triple H up in the air.

Cool spot leading to all three guys going down. With Triple H on the floor, Edge meets him there while Cena is out in the ring. Edge with a slingshot into the ringpost and Triple H starts to bleed. Edge sets up the Spanish announce table and hits the jumping DDT on the table. The table does not break, though.

Edge goes to the top and hits Cena with a missile dropkick for two. Whip into the corner, Edge with a shoulder tackle. Edge goes for something, Cena slips out and puts him in the STFU submission hold. Edge is getting close to the ropes and Hunter catches Edge's hand before he could tap out.

Triple H then smashes the microphone into Cena's head. Man, Hunter's blood loss is massive. He's got a chair now and he creams Edge over the rail to the concrete on the floor. Hunter staggers back in, then gets hooked into the STFU. Triple H looks to be out, so ref Mickey Henson raises him arm once, twice and no, Hunter pushes out of it while yelling like the Incredible Hulk. He got to the rope.

Cena's up, FU is countered into a Pedigree, no, and Cena slips out into another STFU. Hunter is close to the ropes. Edge is up, he goes to the top rope and Cena gets up to slug with Edge. Cena puts Edge on his shoulders and Hunter ducks under Cena's legs in the Electric Chair, so Cena dropped Edge with a move like a Samoan Drop. They all tumble down at the same time. With the ref down, Lita gets in the ring with a chair, charges at Hunter, but he gives a spinebuster to her. The fans loved that. Hunter chucks the chair out of the ring, then ducks out for Sledgie the sledgehammer.

Triple H is waiting to hit Cena, Edge spears the Cerebral Assassin. Edge grabs the hammer, charges into Cena. Cena counters to the FU, Triple H hits a low blow on Cena while Edge is dumped to the floor. Triple H nails the Pedigree for the 123 and is the new WWE Champion!

Triple H is now an 11-time World Champion!

Triple H is celebrating his win, holding the WWE Championship close when suddenly...

OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!

'Oh, ah, ah, ah, ah! Get up, come on get down with the sickness!'

Down with the Sickness plays to a loud pop and out comes the Bladewolf who makes his way down the ramp towards the ring, a bloodies and weakened Triple H down to one knee as he could barely stand after all he's endured in the match.

Bladewolf slides into the ring and walks towards Triple H and the two stare each other down before Bladewolf looks at the WrestleMania 22 sign and Triple H looks at it as well, getting cheers from the fans. They stare each other down before Bladewolf suddenly grabs Triple H by the throat, lifts him up...AND PLANTS HIM WITH A CHOKESLAM!

Bladewolf picks up the WWE Championship and spins the spinner logo just for good measure before he gets a microphone and leans down to Triple H.

"Hunter...I've decided...that I want what you have and that is the WWE Championship." He said with a cold growl. "But...I don't have the patience to wait until WrestleMania, so...next week I shall invoke my right to face the WWE Champion on RAW instead of WrestleMania. Be prepared...because I am taking that title off you next week."

With that said, he drops the microphone and raises the WWE Championship before he dumps it on Triple H then leaves the ring and heads to the back as Triple H recovers. What a way to end RAW, Bladewolf wants to face the WWE Champion next week instead of WrestleMania...


Yeah, I had this happen. Bladewolf isn't too patient enough to wait until WrestleMania, he wants the WWE Championship now. And yeah, Cena lost it to Triple H, who now has to deal with the Bladewolf the following week on RAW. Now at this point, the WWE Title design is one of my favourites which is the spinner.

Say what you want about it, it looks pretty cool.
