RAW: 8/10/2007

Monday Night RAW was live at the Van Andel Arena in Grand Rapids, Michigan. A video aired showing the highlights of last night's No Mercy, ending with the Last Man Standing match between the Bladewolf and Randy Orton, ending with Bladewolf winning the match and retaining the WWE Championship, which he has now held for 315 days.

OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!

Dark Side plays as fire explodes on the stage and the Bladewolf walks out with the WWE Championship around his waist, arena bathed in the sinister, blood red lights. He makes his intimidating walk down the ramp towards the ring and climbs onto the apron, stepping over the top rope and his theme dies down as he grabs a microphone but the lights remain the same.

"For 315 days...I have held this title." Bladewolf said as he takes the title off his waist to hold it and look at it. "In those 315 days, many have tempt their fate and destiny...and I stomped them into the ground, stomped them straight down to the depths of Hell! Many have fallen before me in attempting to grab this title. John Cena...Umaga...Shawn Michaels...Edge...Bobby Lashley...Mick Foley...King Booker...The Great Khali...and now Randy Orton. All these men have tried to do what has not been done thus far and that is defeat me and take this title for themselves. Many have come close...but they still didn't get it done. I desire to hold this title, well past WrestleMania, and for the next few years I will be the WWE Champion and keep my shadow of darkness and destruction over this brand...over the WWE. Those who refuse to accept that...will Burn...in...HELL!"

Bladewolf goes to leave when suddenly Triple H's theme hits to a loud pop and out comes the King of Kings who makes his way down the ramp with a microphone in hand. Bladewolf watched him coldly as the lights go to normal. Triple H enters the ring and grabs a microphone.

"I couldn't help but notice that I am not on that list of names." Triple H said. "Now granted that's because I was out injured but if I was here then I guarantee you, that reign wouldn't have past 100 days. You and me have known each other a long time, you know what I am out here for, and what I want. So why don't we give these people what they want to see? You vs me for the WWE Championship...tonight."

The crowd pops loudly at that, liking the idea. Bladewolf and Triple H were eye to eye, staring each other down. However, Vince McMahon's theme suddenly hits and out comes the WWE Chairman who walks down the ramp and gets into the ring, grabbing a microphone.

"First off, well done Bladewolf on the 315 day mark as WWE Champion." Vince said but Bladewolf kept his cold gaze on Triple H. "Now, I would like to inform everyone that due to the match and injury sustained during it, Mr. Randy Orton will be out of action for about two or three months." The crowd popped at that. "Now, I very much want to see this match between you two. So I'll make it a No Holds Barred match!" The crowd popped louder. "that match will be the Main Event of tonight!"

Vince's theme plays as he heads backstage, Bladewolf and Triple H never once took their eyes off each other.


Later

The Main Event had arrived. Triple H's theme hits and the Game's theme hits as he comes out and makes his usual entrance for this No Holds Barred match with the WWE Championship on the line. Triple H gets into the ring and his theme dies down as he waits for the WWE Champion.

Dark Side plays as fire explodes on the stage and the Bladewolf walks out with the WWE Championship around his waist, arena bathed in the sinister, blood red lights. He makes his intimidating walk down the ramp towards the ring and climbs onto the apron, stepping over the top rope and his theme dies down as he takes his coat off but the lights remain the sinister, blood red.

Bladewolf shoves his title into the referee's hands. the referee raises the title to show it is on the line before handing it to someone at ringside then calls for the bell.

'Ding! Ding! Ding!'

Triple H backs away a little and tries to drive a knee into Bladewolf's head but the 8-time World Champion moves out the way. Bladewolf gets to his feet and the two rush at unload with furious right punches before Bladewolf knees Triple H in the gut, gets behind him and hits a German Suplex across the ring.
