RAW is WAR: 18/12/2000
RAW is WAR was live at BI-LO Center in Greenville, South Carolina. An angry Mr. McMahon came to the ring as the show kicked off. The chairman said that his life had changed dramatically since SmackDown last week. He said that he feared his reaction - the evil smile - may have been misinterpreted. He was actually deeply saddened by the fact that his wife was in the hospital. Vince said that Linda had, in fact, suffered a major nervous breakdown. He said that he would take some of the blame - but that Mick Foley should also be partially blamed, as well as Stephanie. Mr. McMahon said that starting tonight, he would start making things right. But before he did, he wanted to say that Linda, in fact, was the one who should take the blame for her breakdown! Vince said that he instructed his attorneys to stop the divorce proceedings. Then Vince showed some photos of Vince and Linda's past years together.
Immediately, Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley came out to the ring! She said she came out to tell Vince what she thought of him. She said that after dragging Linda's reputation through the gutter, she could see how sick Vince actually is. Then she called Vince a mean old bastard!
Then Vince said he wanted to finish the story of what happened in the backseat of that famous Chevy Impala. He said that had he not married Linda, Shane would have actually been a bastard!
Kurt Angle came out to the ring and told both McMahon's that he was appalled.
Kurt said then turned to Stephanie that he was ashamed of her! He said that all kids should respect their parents.
After Angle finished telling Stephanie off, Mick Foley angrily came out to the ring, where he took Vince's cane away from him! Mick said that Vince wasn't garbage - but Vince was a lower form of scum! Kurt interrupted Mick and said that Foley was full of it. Angle said that Mick should be the last man to talk about good parenting, since Mick's kids were at ringside for some of his most brutal matches!
Foley told Kurt Angle he had heard enough, and he was going to make Kurt defend his title later on RAW! The opponent would be a man Angle had never faced before - Vince McMahon!
After the announcement, Stephanie left the building in a limo.
First match of the night was the Bladewolf putting his Intercontinental Championship on the line against Jeff Hardy.
OOOOOOWHOOOOOO!
Dead Silent plays to a pop from the fans as smoke fills the stage, the lights dimming to a familiar sinister blood red and dark blue. Trish is standing on the stage in a dark robe, dressed in a black top that gave a great view of her cleavage, wore a black leather skirt that stopped mid-thigh, giving a great view of her long legs and wore a black cowgirl hat, before the Bladewolf walks out, the Intercontinental Championship around his waist, and stands in front of her, facing the ring with a dark glare on his face.
Trish takes the robe off, then walks around him, running a hand seductively across his shoulders as she walks forward to the ring while singing.
"He is time... famine, war... pestilence you cannot endure..." Trish gets in the ring and seductively rubs her body against the ropes as she continues while getting more frantic by the second. "the end is here... the end is here! Fall and Pray! Fall and Pray! Fall and PRAY!"
The lights flash blood red repeatedly as Trish falls to her knees and moves out the way as Bladewolf appears in the ring, unleashing a primal yell as he stands under the flashing red lights while the songs repeats the 'fall and pray' part.
Bladewolf beats his chest in sync with the drum part of the theme and the song slowly ends as Trish slides between Bladewolf's legs and poses on her knees in front of him while her back is pressed against his knees.
The lights go to normal and Trish gets to her feet as Bladewolf takes off his coat followed by his short-sleeved shirt to reveal his ring gear underneath. Bladewolf takes off the Intercontinental Championship, handing it to the referee while Trish gets out the ring to stand at ringside.
The Hardy Boyz' theme hits and out comes Jeff Hardy to a loud pop from the fans as he makes his way down to the ring. This will be the very first time the Bladewolf and Jeff hardy have a one-on-one match against each other. hardy enters the ring and his theme soon dies down as he stands across from the Bladewolf.
The referee holds up the title, showing it's on the line, then hands it to someone at ringside before calling for the bell.
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
Bladewolf threw his fists up into a boxer's stance as he walks forward and the two wrestlers circle each other. Bladewolf lunged for Hardy but he ducked him and baked off, knowing he had to not be grabbed by the Intercontinental Champion. Jeff backed up to the ropes and slid out the ring, and Bladewolf followed, following jeff who runs, ducks through Bladewolf's legs, slides into the ring and runs for the ropes, rebounds off them and comes running back... AND HITS A SUICIDE DIVE OVER THE TOP ROPE AND ONTO BLADEWOLF!
Jeff Hardy now had control of the match as he lifted Bladewolf up and tossed him back into the ring, slides in after him and began working over Bladewolf with a series of stomps and elbow drops. Jeff then grabbed Bladewolf's legs, lifted them up and spread them apart, before landing a leg drop right to Bladewolf's groin. Bladewolf yelled in pain and rolled onto his stomach as the pain pulsed through this lower region.
But Jeff didn't want to give Bladewolf any time to recover, so he quickly walked over to him and lifted him to his feet. Hardy then whipped Bladewolf across the ring causing him to bounce off the ropes, then caught him with a dropkick as he came back. Jeff once again started working over Bladewolf with a series of stomps and elbow drops.
Bladewolf rolled onto his back and laid in the middle of the ring. Jeff still kept on Bladewolf by jumping in the air and extending his legs, then landing across Bladewolf's face for a standing leg drop. Jeff then went of a quick pin, but Bladewof kicked out at two.
Jeff lifted Bladewolf to his feet and whipped him hard into the corner. Bladewolf leaned back against the turnbuckle pad and gasped for breath. Jeff then ran at Bladewolf and jumped in the air looking to hit Bladewolf with a flying elbow, but at the very last second Bladewolf dropped down to the mat, causing Jeff to hit the turnbuckle with his elbow and stumbled back in pain.
Bladewolf got to his feet, grabbed Hardy from behind and hits a release German Suplex across the ring. And just like that, the pace of the match shifted along with the control. Bladewolf was now in control here.
Bladewolf got to his feet, adjusting his elbow pads as Trish clapped for him at ringside. Bladewolf walks over to Hardy, grabs him from behind again and lifts him up like he weighed nothing and then hits another German Suplex across the ring. Bladewolf gets to his feet and flips his hair back as he walks over, grabs Jeff again and hits another German Suplex across the ring.
Bladewolf gets to his feet and walks over to Jeff with no rush to get this over with. Bladewolf grabs Jeff by the hair and delivers a hard right to the forehead of Hardy, then brings a forearm down across Hardy's back before lifting him up and tosses him across the ring, sending hardy rolling out the ring and to the outside. Bladewolf flips his hair back and walks over, leaving the ring as Jeff leans on the barricade, trying to pull himself to his feet.
Bladewolf grabs him and lifts him onto his shoulder, looking at the steel ring post when Jeff suddenly slides off... AND SHOVES BLADEWOLF HEADFIRST INTO THE STEEL RING POST! Bladewolf falls to his knees as he leans on the ring post while Jeff takes the moment to recover from the assault Bladewolf put on him.
Bladewolf starts getting to his feet... BUT JEFF HARDY DROPKICK HIM INTO THE STEEL RING POST! Bladewolf falls down on his back and Hardy takes the chance to deliver stomps to the Demon Wolf before pulling him to his feet as best as he can and rams Bladewof's head off the ring apron before getting him back into the ring. Hardy climbs to the top turnbuckle and waits for Bladewolf to get to his feet before he jumps off for a double forearm... BUT BLADEWOLF DUCKS IT AND GRABS HARDY FROM BEHIND! Bladewolf... HITS THE DOOMSDAY SIATO SUPLEX!
Bladewolf gets to his feet, grabs Hardy and lifts him into a Fireman's Carry... AND HITS THE FURY OF THE WOLF! HE HOOKS THE LEGS! ONE! TWO! THREE! THE BLADEWOLF RETAINS THE TITLE!
'Ding! Ding! Ding!'
Dead Silent plays as Trish slides into the ring while Bladewolf sits on his knees, glaring down darkly at Jeff Hardy before he looks around with that same dark glare while Trish just looks turned on by Bladewolf's dominance. Bladewolf gets to his feet and Trish raises his arm while handing him the Intercontinental Championship which Bladewolf raises with his other hand.
The couple leave the ring and head to the back as Jeff Hardy is checked on...
And that's it for this chapter. I hope everyone enjoyed it.
