RAW is WAR: 26/2/2001

RAW is WAR was live at America West Arena in Phoenix, Arizona.

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 gets a microphone.

'Bladewolf! Bladewolf! Bladewolf!' The fans chanted, causing Bladewolf to raise an eyebrow as he looks around befor ehe smirks at Trish who smiled back at him.

"Fans here in Phoenix showing their love for the Demon Wolf." JR said. "The Bladewolf will take on the new World Wrestling Federation Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 17. What a match that's going to be.

Bladewolf takes off the Intercontinental Championship and put sit on his left shoulder and holds the microphone in his right hand. "At the Royal Rumble..." he begins, causing the crowd to cheer loudly. he waits for it to die down before continuing. "At the Royal Rumble, I outlasted 29 other men from the very first spot in the match, lasted longer than anyone in the history of the Royal Rumble match. When I won it... I had my WrestleMania spot guaranteed, all I had to do was watch and see just which unfortunate soul is WWF Champion after No Way Out. Now... at WrestleMania 17... it will be the Bladewolf vs Stone Cold Steve Austin."

"That's huge, JR!" Jerry said.

"It's gonna be a fight!" JR agreed over the cheers.

Bladewolf flips his hair back to get out out his face as he continues. "Austin and I... we've had many battles, we've fought time and time again and it always centers around the WWF Championship. That is our ultimate prize in this company, and time and time again, we've met in this ring for that title. Austin and I... the last time we ever battled for the WWF Championship was back in 1999, and I won. This year, at WrestleMania, you all will see it again. But... I want to change something. Not only will the WWF Championship be on the line... but I will put the WWF Intercontinental Champiomship on the line as well."

"Wow!" Jerry exclaimed as the cheers got louder.

"That's big!" JR agreed.

"The last time there was such a match at WrestleMania with these two titles on the line... it was Hulk Hogan vs the Ultimate Warrior, title vs title." Bladewolf said and the crowd cheered as they remembered that match years ago at WrestleMania 6 back in 1990. "Austin, at WrestleMania, you wil-"

Stone Cold Steve Austin's theme hits to a loud pop from the fans and out comes the new WWF Champion with the title proudly displayed on his shoulder as he makes his way down to the ring. "And here he comes!" JR said. "Bladewolf's opponent at WrestleMania! Stone Cold Steve Austin, who wnt through hell last night in defeating Triple H in a 3-Stages of Hell match, then went on to defeat the Rock and Kurt Angle for the title he now holds!"

Austin enters the ring and goes to all four turnbuckles, raising his arms and showing off the WWF Championship as he did so. Bladewolf remains as still as a statue, watching Austin with an unblinking stare while Trish remained behind Bladewolf, but she backed into the corner as Austin went eye to eye with Bladewolf as Austin's theme dies down.

"What a sight." JR said as the crowd cheers at this confrontation. "Bladewolf and Stone Cold, two of the biggest stars in this business."

Austin raises the WWF Championship right in Bladewolf's face, causing the Demon Wolf to smirk slightly before he raises the WWF Intercontinental Championship, the crowd cheering as the two Champions stare each other down before Austin takes the microphone out of Bladewolf's hands.

"The reason I'm out here is because I've got a couple of things to get off my chest." Austin said. "First of all, Bladewolf, it has been a damn long while since we met in this ring for the WWF title. And I gotta admit... I'm surprised you've decided to put that Intercontinental Championship on the line as well at WrestleMania, but now I look forward to taking that title off you. All I want to say to you, my advice to you... is stay healthy."

Bladewolf tilts his head a little as he keeps eye contact with Austin before he grabs the hand holding the microphone and brings it to his lips without breaking eye contact.

"And my advice to you, Austin... is get ready." Was all Bladewolf said before he releases Austin's wrist and the two have one intnse staredown with each other before Bladewolf walks past Austin as his theme plays, Bladewolf and Trish leaving the ring. Suddenly, Austin's theme hits, causing Bladewolf to pause and look back at the Texas Rattlesnake who raises the WWF Championship.

Bladewolf raises the WWF Intercontinental Championship in response. At WrestleMania, it will be title vs title...

I figured, that with how much of a rivalry they've had starting from WrestleMania 14, it should be Bladewolf vs Stone Cold Steve Austin at WrestleMania 17 in a title vs title match. Plus, i want to give credit to JDTank75 who came up with this idea.
