"Geez, that ice feels cold! Good though" commented Amanda as she held an ice pack to her throbbing head

"With you on that one" said Shadow, holding ice to her back

"You guys need a plan" decided Trish as she sat and watched them "you need a way to keep Regal out of your business for good"

"Any ideas then send them our way" cracked Amanda

"How was your match anyway Trish?" asked Shadow, shifting her position in the chair

Trish scowled, her pretty facial features darkening for a moment or two as she glowered. Then she dismissed the question with a wave of her hand. Shadow looked at Trish amused, though she'd swapped her skirt for a pair of stretchy black hot-pants she was the same Trish she was a couple of hours ago except for the fact that by the look of it, she'd lost.

"You can't always win against her" tried Amanda helpfully

"I never seem to ever" growled Trish, it was evidently a sore spot with her

"Anything we can do?" asked Shadow

"Just don't mention her, we'll end it sometime but right now, she's a waste of perfectly good space" replied Trish, flicking her hair over her shoulder

"Whatever you say" said Amanda, hiding a smile

"You've got to find a way to beat Regal" began Trish suddenly, swiftly changing the subject "there's a way, after all, you do hold the power"

"Just as you've got to find a way to beat Lita" countered Amanda, teasing her

Trish scowled again and got up. She swung open the door to find Lita stood there, a fist lifted to knock the now non existent door that had been in front of her, a surprised look on her face. She smiled when she saw who it was and moved out of the way with a flourish to allow Trish to exit. Trish glared at her for a moment before turning back to the others, waved and then disappeared. Still smiling, Lita entered the office.

"Hey guys, what was up with the bimbo?"

"She's mad you beat her" replied Amanda

"She should have got used to it by now" retorted Lita "anyway, I'm here for a match request for Matt, he wants a title shot"

"Which one?" asked Shadow, dropping the ice pack onto the desk and grabbing a sheet of paper and a pen

"Any, he isn't picky, oh except the Light Heavyweight"

"OK, lets see what we can do"

*

"Have you seen Shane?"

"No, is he here? Oh my God, Shane's here!"

"Shit, I hope Vince doesn't find out"

Backstage was buzzing, everyone was excited. A certain visitor had been spotted talking to talent, shaking hands and pitching ideas. That visitor was Shane Mcmahon, owner of WCW. Everyone wanted a piece of the action, either wanting to convince Shane that they would be a good addition to WCW or loudly voice their disapproval to him.

"We can't be involved" stated Amanda "we're the Commissioners, we can't neglect our duties"

"So? Don't you think it would be cool to be part of WCW?" asked Shadow "it would be real fun, haven't you seen the talent in that organisation?"

"Yeah but that isn't a reason to jump"

"Oh whatever, if Christian was in WCW, you'd jump in a second"

"Would not"

"Would too"

"Would n..yeah, guess I would, wouldn't I?"

"A slave to the sexy blonde Canadians"

"Damn right"

"I still think it would be great to go to WCW"

"C'mon, look at these saps who are throwing themselves in Shane in hope that he'll pick them, it's stupid! We've got great jobs here, we're in the perfect position to destroy Regal and we've got a few friends here"

"Yeah, you're right"

"I know, now who's Regal gonna get tonight?"

"Ummm, oh I know! How about someone like Big Show?"

"I like your way of thinking"

"Thanks, who're you facing tonight?"

"Ivory again, Raven thinks I should face her to remedy the mistakes I made when I faced her last, I did make mistakes apparently, how about you?"

"I've got Jacqueline"

"What did you do wrong?"

"Nothing, Raven says I should face someone who's better than me to help me improve and Jackie is certainly better than me"

"You got that right, did we give Raven anything tonight?"

"Set up a little Hardcore Battle Royal to make things interesting"

"Great, now lets go wade through these Shane Mcmahon groupies to get to our locker room"

A wad of paper bounced off the rim of the bin, rolling away to join the other clumps of paper that dotted the floor around it. Amanda crossed through something on her paper then sat back with a sigh, taking a swig of Coke.

"This card is looking shaky" she commented

"I know, how long is it till Backlash?" asked Shadow, not looking up as she scribbled

"Two weeks and we have a couple of matches"

"Man, there has got to be someway we can..."

Shadow didn't finish her sentence as Undertaker and Kane entered the office with a slam of the door. They silently walked up to the desk, their intimidating figures leaving the girls in darkness. Undertaker pulled his shades up onto his head and smiled at them

"Word is that you two are the Commissioners" he said softly

"That word would be right" replied Shadow, trying not to show her nervousness

"Well then you two are the girls we've come to see because me and Kane? We want our chance at Austin and Hunter, that joke known as the Two Man Power Trip, now Mcmahon won't give it to us, he's afraid of what we'll do to them which he should be but you two can do something"

"Well we can't override Mr Mcmahon" mused Amanda "but we can make a match for you guys so that you earn that match"

"How about they face the tag team champions Edge and Christian? If you guys win then you've more than earned your shot at Austin and Hunter and then by two weeks Sunday? You'll have shut them up" said Shadow

"Sounds good" rumbled Kane

"So it does" replied Undertaker "Pleasure doing business with you"

"If you want to do anymore damage then Regal thinks he's still the Commissioner and threatening him would really get under Mcmahon's skin" suggested Amanda evilly

Undertaker smiled and pulled his shades down to cover his eyes

"I like your style" he said

He and Kane turned and walked out of the room. Shadow grinned at her friend.

"Sorry I had to sacrifice Christian but I think it's for the greater good"

"Whatever"

*

"You won't believe what's happening" said Shadow with a laugh "the so- called Commissioner Regal is making matches for Backlash out before a match"

"What matches are they?" asked Amanda, sitting down beside her friend

"He's going to face Jericho in a Duchess of Queensbury Rules Match whatever the hell that is and he wants to put Angle against Benoit in an Ultimate Submission match"

"Sounds good, shall we?"

"We shall, grab a crew from the corridor"

Amanda stuck her head out the door and beckoned for a crew to come in.

"Feed us out live to the ovaltron will you?" she asked

"Got it" answered the cameraman

The girls sat down next to each other and stared straight into the camera

"Hold it Regal!" Amanda ordered "who gave you the right to make matches?"

Regal turned in surprise at her voice and scowled in disgust at their image on the ovaltron as the crowd cheered

"Mr Mcmahon did" he replied, puffing with his own importance

"Pity, we took that away at Wrestlemania" countered Shadow "but your Backlash matches are a good idea, if Jericho and Benoit don't have any problems with those matches then we're more than happy to make them"

In the ring, Benoit and Jericho nodded, evidently having no problem at all with the matches. On the outside of the ring, Angel clapped her approval, she liked the idea as well.

"Well then, you have your match, oh and Regal? Try anything like that again and you're in trouble OK? Bye" Amanda said, waving at the screen

Before Regal could answer, their image disappeared from the screen, leaving him yelling at his own image. He was not pleased at this besmirchment but he had got his matches which was fine with him.

"I won the title! I won the title!"

They heard Matt before they saw him, making his way up the corridor jubilantly. Shadow laughed as he burst into the office, sweating and bare- chested, Lita on one arm and the European title hooked over the other. Jeff bounced in behind them.

"Happy are we?" asked Amanda grinning

"Couldn't be better" laughed Matt "I got a title baby!"

"You sure have" laughed Lita giddily

"High on life?" guessed Shadow

"Nah, victory" answered Jeff, wincing slightly at his sore back from where Perry Saturn had slammed him into the steel steps "anyhow, you guys up for a night out?"

"Again? Don't you lot sleep?" asked Shadow, shaking her head

"Not much" shrugged Jeff as Matt began kissing Lita

"Hey break it up here" said Amanda playfully pulling Lita away "it's a family show and I don't want to lose my lunch"

"Your office, your rules I guess" replied Matt with a laugh

"You up for a night out anyway?" asked Lita

"Sure, we'll come in a few minutes, meet you out in the car lot" replied Amanda

After Team Xtreme left chattering, Shadow and Amanda began clearing the office up.

"Do you think he should defend at Backlash?" asked Shadow

"Who Matt? Might be an idea"

"How about Raven? I bet he'd like that, it could be a sort of way of saying thank you for the training"

"Good one but I think it should be Eddie, I think it would be more entertaining"

"OK, Matt and Eddie it is"

"Oh wait, I think Regal's got an idea" said Amanda, gesturing to the monitor

Sure enough on screen, Regal was talking to Christian who was convincing Regal to let him have a shot at the European title. Regal thought it was a good idea, saying it would definitely happen. He also decided that Raven and Rhyno would fight for the Hardcore title.

"I've had enough of this" growled Shadow

She snatched up the phone and dialled a number. On screen, a phone rang. Regal picked it up and almost immediately held it away from his ear from the yelling.

"Yes I know what you said Miss Shadow.....well I think he deserves a title shot.....oh really?...do you not think that a triple threat involving Mr Hardy, Mr Guerrero and young Christian here would be beneficial to the card?"

Shadow covered the mouth piece and looked at Amanda who nodded silently.

"Oh you do?...how pleasant to see that we can come to an agreement....and the Hardcore match?....good good....yes, good day to you as well..."

The handset crashed down into it's cradle.

"Matt and Raven'll win" said Amanda

"I know, I just hate it when Regal acts like he knows everything and can do whatever the hell he likes"

"Don't worry, come Backlash? We'll make sure he loses, anyway I have an idea for our main event but I doubt I can put it into effect since Mcmahon would never let it go through so we have one more phone call to make before we go party"

"Yeah, who to?"

"You got all the important numbers right?"

"Sure"

"Then get dialling because we are gonna talk to Linda Mcmahon"
