Maeglin: Hey! Yeah I DO agree with u! J.R and King r the REASON Raw is so fun to watch! If it werent for King's goofy crack-ups and Jim's up-to-date information of the current matches/history re-telling, I don't think Commentators would get the kind of publicity they have these days. BUT there's also Tazz and Cole who are probably the second-greatest commentators ever on WWE! Austin should do something!

Third Week: SMACKDOWN!
Live From:
Two thousand four hundred and fifty seven sits were presented at the arena and not one sit was being sat as the fans stood to scream for the iron-fist to explode! Fireworks, crackers and all kinds of pyro-creating things were shot out of the metal hand! The entrance stage burst opened from nine corners from the impact of the fire that emerged from within it. The voice of Michael Cole could be heard shouting as he welcomed both live and TV audiences to Smackdown!
Cole: 2457 FANS ARE ON THEIR FEET! WELCOME TO THE SOLD-OUT ARENA OF SMACKDOWN! LIVE FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF NORTH CAROLINA! I'M Michael Cole, your host at ringside with Tazz! And what an outrageous night you'll deliver you folks! 6-MEN will compete in a Battle Royal MATCH to determine the NUMBER ONE CONTENDER for the WWE Title!
Tazz: You got that right Cole! The fighters IN the match, howeveh, hasn't been confirmed yet.
Cole: Well how long can it take Tazz? We've got great General Managers like Stephanie McMahon and a hard challenging Owner like MR. McMahon!
Tazz: True! But also tonight you're gonna see Sable, Dawn Marie, Nidia and the beautiful Torrie Wilson in the first eveh Bourbon Street BIKINI CONTEST!
Cole: Then, the fight for vengeance starts tonight! Shane O' Mac takes on The Undertaker and IF he wins he'll have to face Big Show and if Shane SURVIVES that – he will have to defeat Brock Lesner NEXT week to get his RAW match on Unleashed against Kane! And what's more, Shane's OWN father put him through these hard obstacles! How can a father DO this Tazz? How can a parent put their OWN children inside a lion's cage and lock the door? All Shane ever wanted was to get BACK at Kane for piledriving his mother, OUR C.E.O Linda McMahon onto the solid steels of the titan-tron!
Tazz: Well, we KNOW how Mr. McMahon can get Cole! Remember what he did with Stephanie last month? She put her in a match against the 350pound A-TRAIN! Mr. McMahon . . . if you look at it this way . . . has already done many, MANY cruel things in the past. And I think putting Shane through this . . . tournament is . . . well I think its obvious for Vince to this kind of thing!
Cole: It's just not right. And speaking of Mr. McMahon, his own pet-BULL Brock Lesner will fight the injured Matt Hardy inside a 30-foot steel Cage! I don't know how Matt can even get the STRENGTH to comedown here to the ARENA Tazz! Brock Lesner went to Raw last Monday and brutally man-handled Matt Hardy! He F-Fived him through the ENGINE-part of a car! And afterwards, he tried to F-Five Matt's own brother JEFF into the car!
Tazz: Hey if Brock went to Raw . . . that's illegal right?
Cole: Well Mr. McMahon did legalize that every superstar can switch shows or can do BOTH shows for one month!
Tazz: Yeah but Vince ALSO said that 'If any title-holder switch shows during the one-month period, he or she will be stripped of their belts and be ranked at the bottom of their NEW roster!' Doesn't that count for Brock Lesner?
Cole: I believe that single question is running through EVERYBODY'S minds now! Will Brock Lesner be stripped of his title or not?
Backstage
Tazz: "Hey check this out!"
The cameras switched to just outside the General Manager's office. Hunter Hearst Helmsley, also known as Triple H, was exiting through the door of Stephanie McMahon. He was wearing the old-fashioned blue-jeans and had on a white T-shirt with 'The Game, hHh' written on the front side. The back of it had 'Pain is good' marked. Hunter had been living his dream that week, the person he loved so much was finally his again. He and Stephanie were dating, living, hell sleeping together! It was just like how it was about 2 years ago. When the couple were newly wed, true that they divorced in 2001, after a full year of marriage, but now things were starting to get back to normal again! It felt as if, for the first time in those two years, Hunter was finally whole again. Triple H wasn't sure what match he had tonight, it was Vince who announced the 6-man Battle Royal but he didn't mention who would be in it. The winner would be the number one contender for Brock Lesner's title at Unleashed, but Triple H hadn't any plan for the WWE title yet. HIS title was the World Heavyweight belt on Raw, which was buckled across GOLDBERG'S waist. Triple would get it as soon as he moves back to Raw, but Smackdown was where Stephanie was! Hunter needed to be with Stephanie! After a few weeks in their dating, he'd ask her to marry him again. What could possibly happen THIS time? it couldn't be another screw-up that's for sure.
The Game walked across the long corridor that connected with the hallway leading to McMahon's office. There was a food-cart about half way through the hallway, and none other than Brock Lesner was standing there. Smiling as Hunter walked towards him, Brock smiled, "Well, well, well. Look WHO's here!"
Triple H stopped in front of the enemy, strange thing that no matter how tall Lesner looked like in the TV, he was just Hunter's size. "Well, well, well. Look who's gonna get stripped of that title!" Said the Cerebral Assassin, teasing back at the champion who just let out a phony-chuckle.
"HA, HA, HA! Very funny Helmsley! Y'know you can make a VERY good comedian! Guess what? I'm NOT the guy who's losing the title!"
"Well, as I remember it, it was YOU who shifted shows last Monday. I didn't Brocky!"
"Uh huh, heh ha, ha, ha, ha. Well then you better ask your billion-dollar girlfriend again Hunter! What's her name again? Oh yeah, STEPHANIE McMahon! The person who ditched you 2 years ago! Y'know you should just stop falling for her man, let her see OTHER people y'know what I'm sayin'? How'z about I F-uck her tonight? Heh, heh, heh, heh, heh." But those insults were enough to snail Hunter Hearst Helmsley off. He couldn't take it and went physical by grabbing Brock by his skin-tight collar. Lesner was wearing a sleeveless top with 'Here Comes the Pain' written on it.
"YOU insult Steph again kid, and I PROMISE I won't just grind your SKULL and Liver!" Although his voice was a whisper, it was exclaimed.
"Heh, heh. Alright! All right! You win big-guy! And um . . . speaking of BIG . . . here comes the guy who's brains you GRINDED last week!"
"Wha—"
As Hunter tried to see and confirm the footsteps from behind him, he looked over his broad shoulders only go get smacked across the jaw with a sledge hammer! It was the Big Show.
The impact of the hammer-hit slammed Hunter on top of the food-cart as both Brock Lesner AND Big Show started their assault. Hunter had injured the Big Show very badly after delivering that square-sledgehammer-hit on the forehead last week. Show almost had a fractured-skull from that blow, so tonight he wanted to cause the same pain upon Hunter.
Brock grabbed Triple H by his hair and continuously banged his head on the steel-food cart. Slamming back and forth. Brock stopped at the 7th hit and pulled Triple H up to hold him by his hands, Lesner had slipped his between Hunter's biceps and pushed against his neck, stopping the former World Heavyweight Champion at his feet.
"GO ON! HIT HIM BIGSHOW! HIT HIM!" Brock shouted as the Show rubbed the solid-end of the sledgehammer against Triple H's face.
"HIT HIM LIKE HE DID TO YOU! SLAM THAT HAMMER ON HIS SKULL!!!!" Of course this was insane, but that was just what Big Show wanted to do! The 7-foot-2 monster aimed the hammer high by one hand and was ready to strike H when the voice of Kurt Angle shouted from behind – "HEY!"
"C'mon lets get out of here!" Lesner's mind quickly changed as they saw Angle coming their way. Brock dropped H into the floor and he and Bigshow ran out the other way.
"HEY! STOP!" Kurt screamed, the horror in front of him was terrible! Triple H was ambushed and was bust-opened very badly. Blood poured from his mouth as Kurt screamed for some of the paramedics to bring medical attention.
Ringside
Cole: Wow! Triple H looked pretty bad Tazz.
Tazz: Bad indeed Cole! Being hit by that sledgehammeh . . . I'm telling you . . . that aint a comfortable experience!
Cole: Well Triple H hit the Big Show last week just like that! How can the Big-guy even walk here is beyond my thoughts.
Tazz: Well Show had about a week to recover Cole! It's possible!
Cole: Could be.
The upcoming match marked the title-shot for the Tag-team belts as Farooq and Bradshaw, the APA battled Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin – the Self Proclaimed World Greatest Tag-Team!
The bout begun pretty much with Farooq and Haas facing off but the heel-team stood no chance to face the APA. They got slammed, fooled, and even suplexed multiple times at ones by the experienced team. But even the APA couldn't win when The World's Greatest Tag-Team cheated behind the referee and stole the match by pinning Bradshaw. It was a disgrace to lose to a bunch of rookies; the APA couldn't bring home the Tag-titles.

Cole: And we're back live on Smackdown folks, just minutes ago you've seen the APA losing to Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas.
Tazz: I hardly call that loosin' Cole! The APA had the match for themselves if it weren't for Benjamin's switch-trick!
Cole: True Tazz, but Faarooq and Bradshaw aren't the tag-team champions!
Tazz: Well . . . yeah d-UH! Maybe Benjamin and Haas is indeed the World Greatest Tag-Team Cole! I mean just look at em'! They debuted in the WWE as Team Angle and due to their ranks they were granted their OWN team in 3 months!
Cole: As I remember it Tazz, Kurt Angle FIRED them from Team Angle!
Tazz: Well . . . yeah but . . . they had the skills to GET fired in 3 months heh, heh!
Cole: Hey what's this?
Backstage
Michael Cole's answer was given when the camera shifted to Matt Hardy's locker. He was granted the personal-locker due to his injury, when you have a serious crack in your neck the WWE would be bound to give you the VIP treatment. Matt wasn't in a mood to smile at all tonight, why would he be smiling? The f-five Brock Lesner gave him on Raw the other day was vicious enough to almost crack Matt's neck! Hence, damaging his spinal cord badly. It was only because of God's gift that Matt was able to stand here right now. A neck-band was supporting his injured spot, it held Matt's neck in a straight position so that when he walks, the bone doesn't move. Amy had taken her usual WWE trips off. She was with Matt the entire week and promised that until his neck was fully cured, she would remain with him. The only event Amy had to attend to were the weekly Raw, she didn't even went to do the tapings! The red-head was sitting on the sofa with Matt, her hand was firmly grasped to his, a whisper escaped Lita's lips, "You sure you wanna do this hon.?"
"I HAVE to Amez," Matt sighed, "If I don't go out there and compete then I'll be fired!" Lita dropped her boyfriend's hand and stood up from the couch. Frustrated of the situation they were in, Amy turned around with her arms crossed,
"I just canNOT believe how can someone do this! I mean . . . McMahon . . . ugh! HOW can Vince McMahon DO such a thing?? He threatens to FIRE you if you don't risk your life?!"
"McMahon is an @$$! Its not unreal for him to do this! See what he did to his own SON?" Now it was Matt's turn to stand up, slower than Amy because of the neck.
"Matt, you will NOT fight with Brock Lesner tonight! I took you this far because this is your hometown! McMahon said you have to 'compete' tonight! You don't have to fight Brock!"
"Amez I HAVE to! What's the worst thing that can happen?"
"The WORST thing that could happen? Matt! He could KILL you!" She wrapped her arms around him, 'This wasn't fair'. The ONLY person she ever loved with all her BEING was going to be brutally beaten and she couldn't do ANYTHING about it! The WWE just HAD to have somekind of answer to this! Lita had talked with Stephanie earlier tonight, BEFORE the show but the General Manager said she hadn't any power to fight against it. Only Vince could call-off the match and he would NEVER do that.
Maybe a river of tears poured down Amy Dumas's eyes as remained hugged to Matt's shoulder. "He could kill you Matt . . ." she slowly whispered against him, "He could kill you . . ." How long was she crying on his shoulders was never counted, Amy didn't know when her boyfriend removed her from his chest and looked deep in her eyes, Matt Hardy said, "Trust me." And kissed on Lita's forehead.
Ringside
Cole: Did Mr. McMahon really do that Tazz?
Tazz: What you mean forcing Matt to compete? Yeah, I think that isn't big a deal for our Owner!
Cole: Its just INSANE! How can he DO THAT?! It's just . . . its just impossible!
Tazz: Well if that wasn't the case, would Matt Hardy come all the way down to the arena with an injured neck?
Cole: I . . . I'm speechless.
Tazz: Well we still have to get on with our show here Cole! And Coming up next- Matt Hardy's own former Mattitude followers Shannon Moore and Crash Holly will go up against Jamie Noble and Billy Gunn. I heard from a rumor, that this match is actually set to prove Matt Hardy that his followers are still using Xtreme Mattitude! All of this, coming up, next!

Bell rings
Cole- "Alright. The match is underway with Jamie Noble starting off against Shannon Moore."
The two wrestlers grapple with each other and begin pushing each other back and forth.
Tazz- "Well, this promises to be a high paced match up."
Jamie finally relents and rolls backward, taking Shannon with him and hurling him through the air. Shannon rolls on the mat and charges, but Jamie repeats the act, flipping Shannon again. Shannon rolls up again, a little sluggishly and he charges a third time. Jamie ducks the charge and Shannon goes into the ropes. Bouncing back, Shannon runs at Jamie and Jamie hits him with a shoulder block, knocking Shannon flat down. Seeing him down, Jamie runs into the ropes, looking for a elbow drop, but continued running when he saw Shannon beginning to roll. Hitting the ropes on the other end, Jamie runs back just as Shannon gets up. But Shannon leaps into a dropkick and Jamie falls hard. Shannon quickly moves to Jamie and kicks him a couple of times before Irish whipping him into the corner. However, Jamie reverses and Shannon hit his back against the post. Unfortunately for him, Jamie is still coming and runs into him in a corner clothesline. Shannon staggers and Jamie grabs his head and moves to his corner where Billy was waiting.
Cole- "And now, Jamie tags in Billly Gunn, who is going to work on Shannon."
This proves true as Billy kicks Shannon in the midsection and elbow bats him in the back.
Tazz- "Well, that Billy for you. He will stay on you; wear you out, whatever he can to pick up the win."
Billy lifts Shannon up, but Shannon suddenly snaps upward and punches out on Billy. Billy returns the punch and they go on with this briefly up Billy picks up the pace and hammers him repeatedly. Billy then Irish Whips him into the corner and follows with a clothesline. Still holding Shannon's head, Billy jumps forward in the air and slams downward in a Bulldog. Rolling him over, Billy pins him down and the ref slides in (It's cool how they do that.)
"1...2..."
Shannon manages to kick out and Billy lifts himself up and drags him over the Jamie, who tags in. Jamie grabs his head and starts pounding on it before sending him into the ropes. Shannon bounces back and Jamie is ready to slam him, but Shannon slides right under him and dropkicks him in the back. Jamie goes down and Shannon begins the mercilessly kick Jamie on the mat.
Tazz- "But you can't leave Shannon out. He can be vicious if the opportunity permits. And after what happened with him and Hardy, he is really frustrated."
Cole- "Yeah that's true. Matt Hardy, 'disowning' both of his former Mattitude followers after the incident with Zach Gowen. Zach is still in the hospital after the brutal assault from that monster, Brock Lesner."
Tazz- "Well, you're right Cole. Brock is pure destruction, a pure animal and he doesn't care who or what it is, they all get destroyed."
Shannon finishes kicking Jamie after the referee had him back off and he lifts Jamie in a headlock and tags in Crash. Crash rolls in while Shannon is still holding him and kicks Jamie in the ribs. Jamie backs away in pain, clutching his side and Crash batters away on his back.
Cole- "And Crash must be frustrated too."
Tazz- "Crash is a tough guy, a former hardcore champ. He probably won't take this lying down either."
Crash then whips Jamie into the turnbuckle and hits him again. Climbing up, Crash then grabs Jamie head and pounds on it as the crowd begins the count.
"1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10!"
Crash then jumps down while Jamie is dazed. Grabbing his head in a headlock, Crash lifts him straight up into the air and suplexes him on the opposite side.
Cole- "The speed of Shannon Moore, the toughness of Crash Holly, these two might make a dangerous combination."
Crash lifts Jamie up and drags him over to Shannon, who grabs his head as well hits him back repeatedly.
Tazz- "But don't count out Jamie yet. He's got a little toughness in him as well."
Shannon then whips him into the ropes. Jamie suddenly goes airborne and knocks Shannon down to the mat. Both wrestlers lie on the mat for a few moments before sluggishly getting to their feet. Jamie is going for Billy's outstretched hand, but is pulled away by Shannon, who drags him back to his corner and tags in Crash. Crash comes in and kicks Jamie while he's still on the ground. Crash then picks him up, but Jamie breaks out and begins to fight back. Then while Crash is dazed, Jamie ran back into the ropes and ran forward, but Crash had already woken up and slammed him with a short clothesline. Giving Jamie yet another kick, Crash then lifts him up again, but Jamie again fights back, raining a couple blows on Crash. Crash is pushed back briefly, but then sends a knee into Jamie's gut, causing him to double over. Crash then placed Jamie head between his legs, hooked his arm and lifted him up. Then when Jamie was flipped over, Crash slammed him down hard. He then rolled him up for the pin.
"1...2..."
But at the last second, Jamie kicks out. Crash shows a look of frustration and then lifts him up and kicks him in the midsection. Crash then whips him into the ropes and gets ready to clothsline him when Jamie ducks and continues running to the other side. When Crash turns around, he is met with the heel of Jamie's foot straight in his face.
Cole- "Did you see that?"
Tazz- "That was a wicked spinning heel kick by Nobel."
Cole- "Yeah. Let's take another look."
Screen shows the repeated scene where Jamie ducked under Crash's clothesline, rebounding off the robes and soaring through the air in an accurate spinning heel kick.
Tazz- "Now all Jamie need is to make the tag."
Both wrestlers are now crawling on the ground, struggling to get to their corners. Shannon is closer to his corner and makes the tag to Crash. Crash is about to jump Jamie when he make the tag to Billy. Billy wasted no time in clotheslining Crash. Crash get up immediately only to be clotheslined again by Billy. Shannon finally recovers and charges, but Billy sees him coming, ducks down, and tosses him right over his shoulders. Shannon manages to rise and Bily clotheslines him against the ropes and both wrestlers are now down on the outside. Meanwhile, Jamie has recovered and is climbing up to the top rope while Crash is still trying to rise. As soon as Crash turns, Jamie leaps off the top rope. But Crash sees him coming and kicks him in the gut on his way down before locking in his head and slamming down in a DDT. Crash rolls up Jamie and pins him.
"1...2..."
But Jamie's arm suddenly jerks up before the hand could come down. Crash's face turned red and he stamped around in the ring. At this point, Shannon enters the ring, after getting away from Billy. But suddenly Crash kicks Shannon in the gut and locks in a DDT. Shannon head hit the mat hard and Crash left the ring.
Cole- "What the...? Crash just turned on his partner! What the hell's going on?"
At that time, Billy Gunn has re-entered the ring and locked on to the groggy Shannon, who was rising up. When he was in position, Billy dashed at him and hopped up. His legs locked onto Shannon's neck and they crashed down, completing the Fameasser finisher. With Shannon down, Billy rolls up the pin.
"1...2...3!"
Ding, ding, ding!
"The winner of this match, by pin-fall Jamie Nobel and Billy Gunn!"
Jamie managed to roll in and both wrestlers raised their hands in victory, while a prone Shannon lay unconscious in the ring.
Cole- "Well it looks like Jamie Nobel and Billy Gunn picked up the win, but what is up with Crash? Why did he attack Shannon?"
Tazz- "Well, Cole. Who knows what's going on in the mind of Crash Holly."

The Undertaker was one of the toughest and deadliest wrestlers in the entire company. He was one of the greatest WWE Champions ever to date, a REAL living-legend. Unlike Chris Jericho who isn't even a legend yet. Taker had gained the respect out of almost all the wrestlers in both WWE rosters and the other wrestling-rosters across the world.
Gulping down a refreshing drink of plain-mineral water, the Red Devil walked across the Smackdown parking lot where his motorcycle was parked. The match he was scheduled for tonight was against the one and only Shane McMahon. It wasn't really a challenge, Shane was more like his nephew. The kid he saw grow into a man in his 14-year-long career. Why Shane's dad ever pit him against such a tough bout was something Taker didn't want to be part of. That Vince McMahon needed an old fashioned lesson in the coming weeks, it would be even MORE fitting if Undertaker himself could teach him that lesson.
As Taker walked down the aisles of cars and vehicles parked next to another, he saw as a limousine drive in the huge place. Not giving it a second thought, Undertaker went straight to his motorbike and began opening the extra-storage unit in there. But all of the sudden, the limo that came in a few seconds ago drove in to the place Taker's bike was parked.
The driver honked at Taker twice, to tell him to move. 'Why should I move?' Taker in his mind and showed the driver his middle finger! Then proceeded on with his task.
That's when the limo went crazy and drove IN the parking-place, crashing against Taker's bike and slamming the expensive Motorcycle against the opposing the wall!
"What the f***!" Taker yelled, "HEY YOU! GET YOUR LOUSY ASS OUT OF THAT CAR!"
The person who emerged from the right-back sit, was someone even the Undertaker thought he would never come face-to-face with. The car wasn't even fully stopped when 'he' stepped out.
"Oh so its YOU then!" Taker shouted, his voice echoing through the open space. "What the HELL are you doing here?!"
KANE just stared at his older brother, his nose almost touching Taker's. The Big Red Monster grimly responded. "I do what I want."
"So that's how its gonna be huh? You're no better than that asshole Lesner!"
"Get out of my face!" That tackled the 'nerve' on Undertaker's head. Younger brother or not, NO BODY talked that way at him!
Grabbing Kane by his throat, Taker replied, "You're lucky you're my blood . . . otherwise I'd spill it allover this lot." And released to walk away, a simple confrontation with the Owner would grant Kane in his 'yard'.
But before the Undertaker could walk out, Kane dashed at his older brother from behind and slammed Taker's left shoulder to a solid-pillar. Knocking the elder wrestler to his knees.
Before the Big Red Monster walked out, he spat on Takers face; "You're unlucky because you are my brother!"
The pain in the shoulder would really sting later that night as the unstoppable Undertaker was suddenly gasping for breath . . .
Ringside
Cole: Wow! What is KANE doing here Tazz?
Tazz: I dunno! How am I gonna know?! Ask the crazy Owner!
Cole: sigh That McMahon is really a pain-in-the-ass! And what's more, the vicious fight Mr. McMahon forced in on Matt tonight is something that cannot be forgotten! Mr. McMahon said that Matt Hardy will be suspended if he doesn't compete in the Cage match tonight Tazz! BROCK LESNER vs. Matt Hardy with Lita takes place after the short break! Don't go away!

Cole: Y'know Tazz, I STILL Cant believe how can Mr. McMahon do this! I mean, pinning an INJURED man against BROCK LESNER INSIDE A CAGE! How does that even SOUND straight Tazz? This is insane!
Tazz: sigh Well you're right Cole I have to agree with you that this is unfair but, if Matt doesn't compete in this match then he's gonna get fired!
Cole: That's ridicules!
SQEALING SOLO GUITAR
Tazz: Well ridicules or not! HERE COMES THE PAIN!
"The Following CAGE Match is scheduled for either pin-fall or ring-out. Introducing first, from Minneapolis Minnesota! Weighing in 295pounds! He is the WWE CHAMPION – BRROCK LESSNERR!" Brock wasn't even in his wrestling gear; he was wearing his gym-pants, the one with black stripes. Not wasting any time, the so-called 'Champion' slid inside the ring. And laughed at the 'you tapped out' chants.
"And the opponent," Tony Chimel said on the mic, "In accompanied by Lita. From Fayetteville North Carolina State, weighing in 234 pounds – MAATT HARDY!"
The Xtreme Mattitude theme and screen was shown as Matt Hardy and Lita slowly walked out the entrance. Matt was still wearing his neck-straighter for his neck to not get too much injured. AS IF it would work! The only reason Matt was there tonight was to lose. There was no chance in HELL for him to win tonight. His doctor warned him to barely move his neck for the next two weeks, and here he was in a Steel-Cage FIGHT against the Monster known as Brock Lesner! The SAME man who made SPANKY's career short-lived. The SAME man who nearly killed Zach Gowen!
As they neared the ring Matt stopped and looked at Amy who had the most concerned look in her eyes that begged 'not to go'. Sighing, the Hardy boy indicated Amy to leave. What else could he do? He couldn't just let the woman he loved see him bleed, he couldn't let her see him break his joints, couldn't let her see him get seriously injured by the monster who nearly killed Zach Gowen. And besides, he told Shannon to stop her from watching this on TV backstage. Shannon was very happy when he heard Matt giving him a trusted assignment, even Amy agreed not to see this until it was fully over. Everything was taken care of. The only thing left NOW to do was stepping into the lion's cage. Amy hugged him quickly but tightly and sniffled her way up the ramp leading backstage.
"Just think what might be running through Matt's mind right now." Cole commented over the table.
"That Hardy is a brave young man Cole. A BRAVE young man!" Said Tazz.
Okay, time was up, no more turning back and no more running. This was it, Matt had to go inside the Cage and injure himself for maybe more then 3 weeks! Or more then a month even! Bright side: his ranking wasn't THAT up! It was growing, but guess that was it.
Climbing up the small steel-stairs, Matt entered the ring as the Cage of doom slowly fell down from above . . . and it did feel like the 'Cage of Doom'. Matt's opponent; Lesner had a sadistic smile on his face, one that translated 'Here Comes the Pain!'
As the bell rang, Matt's heart stopped. Brock Lesner speared Matt to the apron and kicked him various times in the mid-section. Brock wanted to damage Matt, wanted to crush Matt so that Hardy could always remember this. Brock's unleashed anger over the Hardy boy engraved him to kick on his throat, to kick-loose the neck-band. Yanking the bandage off of Hardy, Brock held the barely standing Matt by the collar and laughed at him. 'Yeah? You want some more? DO YA? HUH?!' The unthinkable act took place after that shout. Brock Lesner picked Matt Hardy up on his shoulders and brutally spun the weaker opponent onto the steel-walls of the cage! F-Fiving Matt on the strong and unbreakable steel! The entire cage must have rocked by the high-impact as the hunger-filled monster repeated the hellish move! That must have been Matt's worst experience ever, and what was more, he could FEEL his bones snap! He could FEEL his spinal-column crack. Lesner was right, this match WOULD give him a 'New definition of PAIN!'
Lesner did a belly-to-belly, a german, a SUPERFLEX a bone-shattering Twist of Fate and finally, when he saw Matt was numb and almost out cold, submitted the Crossface! The Crossface stretches the jaw up, and pushes against the neck-bone, forcing to grind the two together, this hurts more when you already have a broken neck. The referee picked up Matt's hands, saw it numb, counted '1!'. Repeated as Lesner PULLED with all of his might to BREAK Matt's neck! '2!' The third pull was enough as the referee shouted '3!' and indicated the end of the short and murderous match.
But Brock Lesner wouldn't let go that easy! HE KEPT ON PULLING AND YANKING! PULLING AND YANKING! STRETCHING AND KICKING vowing to TOTALLY SNAP MATT'S NECK-BONE! VOWING SO THAT MATT COULD NEVER WALK AGAIN! VOWING FOR THE WEAKER OPPONENT TO DIE! As the show went off to a commercial

Cole: "I . . . I'm just speechless Tazz."
Tazz: "I know what you mean Cole. That . . . that was a brutal and unsporting act."
Cole: "Folks, Brock Lesner proved once more of how Monstrous he could be. He . . . the champion . . . just . . . I think literally broke Matt Hardy's neck back there . . ."
Tazz: "Brock Lesner is an ANIMAL Cole, he would MURDER if he had to. I . . . I just hope Matt's okay."
Cole: "Well during the break, paramedics were RACING to get Matt to a hospital. Take a look . . ."
Michael Cole blew out a sigh as the screen shifted to the clip:
Backstage, During the Break
It was once again in the parking lot where 3 officials and Amy Dumas were carrying Matt Hardy's numb body to the ambulance; Matt was being wheeled on a stretcher.
Fear, terror, horror and many other feelings gurgled through the chest of Amy Dumas. She was trying to stay calm and keep Matt awake as much as possible. If Matt fainted out, it would be MORE serious. She tried to help, honestly, she tried to smile at Matt and tell him everything was okay . . . but the tears wouldn't stop.
"Matty, its gonna be okaay alright? everythings gonna be fine!" The crack on her voice must've been even more troubling for Matt to bare. "We're gonan be alright! I'm here okay? Matty pleeease! Stay awake!"
'Stay awake?' How could he stay awake? After receiving those . . . *
Matt couldn't even think straight. All he wanted was to get up from whatever this thing he was being carried on and hug Amy to say that he was sorry. Sorry for hurting her SO much by entering that ring. But all his numb brain could let him speak was the muffled groin of Amy's name . . . 'amMmy . . . . . .'
"It's gonna be fine! Matty! Sta . . . stay awake!" But that didn't help, he wanted to but it didn't. AMY knew it didn't. She just had to be with him in every single minute. Tears rained down her cheeks as they entered Matt on the ambulance.
"MISS LITA!" Screamed a voice from behind, it was Shannon Moore.
"Miss LITA!" The younger boy ran to get there, "Miss Lita . . ."
"Shannon?" It delayed Amy from getting in with Matt.
"Miss Lita, plea . . . please . . . please let Matt Hardy be safe alright? I don't got NO one without him! . . . please . . ."
All she could do was nod as she hopped in the started van.
Ringside
Tazz: That was . . . hard man.
Cole: I guess Shannon Moore hasn't forgotten about Matt fully yet.
Tazz: Yeah I –
Backstage
Tazz: --Guess.
"See that?!" Kurt Angle indicated on the Television on Stephanie McMahon's office. "THAT is what Brock Lesner is capable of! Do you STILL think that guy deserves to be the champion AFTER going to Raw?"
Kurt, Triple H and Stephanie were all in the General Manager's office. H and Steph were sitting on the couch while Kurt stood.
"Look, Kurt—" The GM tried to say.
"Damn it I don't understand this!"
"Kurt, listen. I KNOW what Brock Lesner is doing isnt right, I KNOW his actions should result him being in jail but . . . You know my DAD! He says that Brock will be excused because he never went INSIDE the Raw ring!"
"That's just insane!" Sighed Angle, "SOMEBODY has to teach Brock a lesson!"
"Yeah and that somebody has to be me!" Triple H said as he rose from the sofa.
"Oh c'mon! You're here for ONE month only! And you're already trying to taste the title-belt?" Kurt blurted. It was always about the belt, the WWE title was all Kurt could THINK about. If it weren't for McMahon he would still have that championship.
"MY Belt is around Goldberg's waist! And the World Heavyweight title is what I want! Not the WWE Title!"
"Oh yeah? Oh yeah? Then you wouldn't need the match against Brock Lesner then!"
"Guys,"
"I WANT that match against Brock Lesner because no body in this entire ROSTER has the guts to deliver the pain he gave to others!"
"Hey are you saying I can't beat Brock?!"
"Guys."
"Not in theory, but in FACT! You lost at Summer Slam Kurt!"
"GUYS!"
"The REASON I lost was because of your damn father-in-law's interference!"
"HUNTER! KURT! Would you just listen?!"
The yelled together; "WHAT?"
"LooK! The main-event tonight is a 6-Man Battle Royal for the number one contender okay? That means I can choose 3 superstars and the Owner can choose the other 3. Now Kurt, Dad already chose you when you didn't interfere in last week's match! So you're in the Contender's match tonight! You are representing the Owner! And as for who's going to face Brock Lesner at Unleashed? The winner of tonight's match will! And as for me, I still have to choose 3 superstars tonight! From my team it will you Hunter, Chris Benoit and A-Train."
"Well . . . what about me?"
"You are IN the match Kurt! I just don't know whom Dad will pick! All right?"
"Okay,"
"All right I'm cool."
"Good."
Ringside
Cole: Wow! So the first 4 representatives for our main-event is chosen Tazz!
Tazz: Oh this match is gonna a blast Cole I'll tell ya! 6-Men fighting in the SAME ring at the SAME time! The Number One Contender-ship for the WWE Title on the line, I . . . I think it's gonna be one of the most memorable matches in Smackdown!
Cole: Well it sure sounds like that Tazz! The General Manager Stephanie McMahon has already chosen Triple H, Chris Benoit and A-Train to be in the match-up. While Mr. McMahon's announcement will take place in his office in a few minutes, it is confirmed that Kurt Angle is one of the 3!
Tazz: Oh BOY! WWE is ROCKIN these days Cole! I mean, just last Monday the main-event was a 6-man Tables Tornado Tag! TONIGHT'S main-event is a 6-Man Battle Royal! What more can you possibly want?
Cole: Y'know there is a HUGE rumor going on in the locker-rooms backstage that KANE might be one of the fighters in the 6-man match! It is SO certain! Why would someone from Raw just show-up here and start acting like he owns the arena Tazz?
Tazz: Hmm . . . you may be right Cole, you may be right! Kane stands as a possible member to be in the main-event!
Cole: Well folks before the Owner's announcement takes place, we would like to refresh your memory of the upcoming match- Shane McMahon wanted to take revenge with Kane for Tomb-Stone Piledriving his mother, but the young-fighter's faith kept on changing and changing. First it was Eric Bischoff who got in the way, then the legibility of Shane's own health forbid the General Manager's from giving him the match with Kane. So Shane came down to his father, the Owner of WWE for the match and just then what does Mr. McMahon do? He deliberately pits his OWN son against THREE obstacles! Shane must first defeat the Undertaker tonight and IF he wins the match, he will have to face Big Show DIRECTLY after the Undertaker match is over. If Shane defeats Big Show, then it will be Shane versus Brock Lesner NEXT week and IF Shane even SURVIVES that match, he will get his revenge on Unleashed! Does that even sound FAIR to you Tazz?
Tazz: I dunno Cole! Look what Mr. McMahon did to Matt Hardy! Question is, will Shane be in fighting state by Unleashed IF he defeats all these beasts?
Cole: I don't know. I JUST don't know!
Backstage, Owner's Office:
The camera shifted from the two commentators to none other than Vincent Kennedy McMahon. The look on the WWE Owner's face was enough to tell you something bad was going to happen. Vince had on his Satan-smile. The cruel intentions of this man could NEVER be described. He didn't care for anyone in this world other than himself! The way Kane had nearly murdered his bride, C.E.O Linda McMahon didn't matter to Vince at all! Instead of firing Kane, he shook hands with him! And the war he wages on his daughter Stephanie week after week is unimaginable. Just because his daughter is doing an HONEST job as the General Manager of Smackdown, he hates her! He wants her to quit! He wants his OWN daughter to be in pain! That was why he placed her in matches against people like A-Train and Big Show! Who knows when Stephanie has to face the monster Brock Lesner? In his mind, in Vince McMahon's mind, that match will come AFTER Stephanie's boyfriend and ex-husband Triple H shifts back to Raw.
Steadying his reading-glasses, the 58-year-old Owner read aloud the writings on the paper that was held in his hands.
"Good evening people. I, as you very well know, am the Owner of World Wrestling Entertainment. And for your own pleasure, tonight, You'll see 6-men rumbling in a Battle Royal match! The winner of the match will be crowned as the Number one Contender for the WWE Title at Unleashed! Now, as many of you are wondering, just WHO are competing in the Battle Royal match am I correct? Well, my daughter Stephanie has already chosen the first 3 members; they are Triple H, Chris Benoit and the 350pound A-TRAIN! But then, it comes down to who I will pick. And the 1 of the 3 persons in the match-up was automatically chosen when Kurt Angle DIDN'T interfere in last week's main-event! So from MY team I give you Kurt Angle, the Olympic Gold Medallist and 4 time WWE Champion! And the next member to represent me is teh 500pound BIG SHOW!"
Cole: Hey wait a minute!
"That's right! BIG SHOW will have TWO MATCHES tonight! That is . . . IF Shane defeats the Undertaker! Ha, ha, ha! And for the final and sixth member to fight in the Battle Royal main-event? Well . . . lets just say that . . . I like to give surprises! And the sixth member will have to declare himself by entering the ring at the match up!" But as Vince kept on smiling, a shadow was cast over him. Looking up, Vince saw the mad and clenched face of the Undertaker standing there!
"Taker!" The Owner screamed and jumped out of the office-chair. "What are you . . . ah . . . what are YOU doing here?"
'What was HE doing here?' after what Kane did, Vince had the NERVE to ask what was HE doing here?
"What am I doing here Vince?" Taker growled as he looked down at the shorter man, "After what Kane did you have the NERVE to ask me what am I doing here? McMahon! I have seen many cruel acts from you in the past 14 years and believe me, there ain't another PERSON in this damn building who knows you better than me. I KNOW that you send Kane here tonight! I KNOW that it was you!"
'Alright Vince, calm down. CALM down! It's just Taker! What can HE do? Just give the dead-man what he wants and he'll leave to you be!' "I . . . I . . . don't KNOW what you're talking about Taker!"
"Oh please Vince, SHUT UP! I mean it's worse that you didn't give me a shot at the Number One Contenders match tonight, with the stupid excuse that 'For my health I wont have 2 matches?' And yet you gave the BIG SHOW two matches! Hell alright, I'm okay with that."
"Then . . . then what do you want?"
"I want a shot at KANE!"
The crowd cheers loudly
"Um . . . um . . . okay! Here's what we're gonna do! Since this IS a night for contender-shots, IF you defeat my son Shane, then you'll be the one to go down the tournament to face your brother! Yeah! The winner of your match against Shane will have to defeat Big Show and Brock Lesner to get to Kane at Unleashed! Yeah! How does that sound?"
"Excuse me Vince, 'your son'? You call Shane your SON? What kind of father ARE you damn it?! . . . okay, all right. The match with Shane is on then."
"Good . . . and uh . . . good."
"Good."

Backstage
Faarooq and Bradshaw, the APA! 'Acolytes Protecting Agency', some protection they could give. Faarooq was miserable all day after loosing to Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin. Bradshaw said, "C'mon Faarooq! It's not THAT bad. I thought we were the best ever Tag-Team champions so I went in there and gave us a title-shot! We lost so what?"
"Yeah man, but we lost to a buncha kids!" The African-American Muslim cried, Faarooq wasn't really a Muslim because he drank alcohol, and alcohol was forbidden in the Islam religion.
"Oh cheer-up will ya? I gots us a surprise ready! Here come lemme show you!" Bradshaw literally dragged his partner towards the open space just beside the area they were walking.
"What the?" Farooq exclaimed,
"Hey! I made it myself! Isnt it great?"
Faarooq couldn't believe what was standing before him, it was a wooden door, THE wooden door with the 'APA' monogram. His partner, Bradshw went in and tried to open the door with his pair keys.
"Even made that ol' door-bell! Heh, heh."
Ding Dong
"Hehe."
"Bradshaw what is all this?"
"Well what does it look like? We're back in business boy! The APA is back! Now c'mon in I gots some more surprises inside."
As the two went in, there stood a sly, short, bald and completely butler-uniformed guy next to the round-table!
"Who's this?" Faarooq questioned with a disgusted face.
"Why this here is Bruce! Ha, HA! I won him in a poker game!"
The chicko guy just nodded with his stupid grin.
"Brad, what are we gonna do with a damn butler?"
"Show him Bruce!" The butler opened a tray that filled with 4 cigars and 2 cans of cold beer-cans!
"That answer your question? Ha, HAH!"
At last Faarooq smiled as the Acolytes celebrated over their new butler and opened business.
Ringside
Tazz: Ha, hah! Did you see that guy Cole? 'Bruce'! Hah, ha! And I thought 'Alfred' was Batman's butler!
Cole: Well good for the APA! They finally got someone to do their normal-type work!
Tazz: Heh! Wish I had a butler!
Cole: Sorry Tazz but you can't afford one! Any way, folks, coming up next – Shane O' Mac and the Undertaker fights in the first match of 'Tournament: Kane'! The winner will have to fight the BIGSHOW directly after the third fall is counted! All of this next only on Smackdown!

"Wellllll! It's the BIG SHOWW! C'mon get down and get willd ya'll! YEAH! It's the BIG SHOWW! C'mon and get wild now—" WWE Smackdown.

The crowd rose to their feet as Shane McMahon's music echoed through out the ring! A thin voice said,
I've got the MONNEYY! I gotthemo-ney! As Shane O' Mac, the PRINCE of World Wrestling Entertainment walked out beneath the iron-fist. His feat moving with the beats of his song.
"The following contest is scheduled for one fall, introducing first from Greenwich Connecticut – SHANE MCMAHON!"
Shane was wearing a brownish-red T-shirt without any elbow-pads. A pair of cargo-pants covered his bottom while an expensive Dr. Martins shoe was on his feet. The DM wasn't a foot-wear for wrestling, but it's Shane we're talking about! He knew that people with camera's were probably taking pictures of him entering the ring and doing his usual brother-combination taunt, so it was fitting to go out there in style and show the world just how cool and rough he could be at the same time.
Tazz: Well there he is Cole, SHANE o' Mac! That kid has a real heart! Just 'cause of Kane's actions with both his mom AND the RAW superstars, Shane is here tonight to face the Undertaker, and PROBABLY even the Big Show!
Cole: That's right Tazz. I hope he STAYS in at least 65% after tonight's challenge!
"And his opponent," Drum beats. Drum, drum beats, DEAD MAN WALKING "From Houston Texas, weighing 305pounds – THE UNDERTAKER!"
And the Dead-man did walk tonight, due to Kane's assault on his bike, Taker walked out tonight. Totting his usual fighting-gear.
It wasn't a doubt that Undertaker didn't want to fight Shane, like he memorized earlier, Shane was like a nephew to him. But then again . . . even nephew's needed to be spanked once or twice. These words were said over the announcing table as Taker entered the ring.
Ding, Ding! (A/N- okay so I've been saying it all WRONG these days! Lol. Thanks X!)
The match had officially began but both players just stood there, opposite to one another and waiting for the other to hit first. 'C'mon, you hit first.' Taker indicated Shane. The McMahon said 'You first.'
It was hard for them to decide who was to start the fight, both of them were real close . . . more like friends. Taker started wiping his nose, an old habit when he was frustrated. 'GO ON! Hit me!' He shouted after waiting a whole minute.
Shane threw a right-hand but Taker caught it in air. The Undertaker with a fist to Shane's gut, forcing Mac to bend down in pain.
This wasn't really a fight for Taker, even if Shane wasn't close to him, the kid never stood a chance against him! Taker was 6-foot-7 and Shane was 6-foot-1. A 6-inches difference, and that is a lot when you are fighting.
Knowing he had to continue the match, Taker tilted Shane's head up a bit and slammed his elbow across his face. Taker's triceps actually.
Tilting the head up again, Taker breathed a bit and tried to deliver a big-boot to Shane's face, Shane o' Mac countered way before the boot could hit him. Ducking behind Undertaker's back, when Taker turned around he was gifted with a dropkick from Shane.
Shane O' Mac recovered quickly and hopped back to his feet as did Taker. Shane McMahon jumped to the air and tried a spinning heel kick, but Taker's head went under McMahon's long leg, countering.
Shane landed on his feat but saw Taker facing him directly infront. He charged in but was too late to block the bigboot that connected with his head.
Taker had a hard time fighting these days, maybe due to his age, he was OLD! Very old, so a normal big-boot wouldn't keep his opponents down for long. Stretching against he blue-ropes, Taker tried to run in a leg-drop but Shane rolled out of the way just in time! Letting the older man slam his thighs on the mat, painfully for his age. Taker was in a sitting position when Shane landed a front-dropkick straight on his face! Slamming His head to the mat as well.
Shane recovered quickly and ran to the nearing turnbuckle, he hopped to the top-most buckle and steadied for a high-crossbody. It would only connect when The Undertaker was on his two feet. Taker did so, standing up, but he was facing the other direction. Slowly as Taker faced towards Shane, he saw what the young McMahon was doing – jumping off the top turnbuckle with a cross-body slam! The Undertaker took a huge back-step as Shane crashed onto the apron!
The Kid made him sweat in the last 2 minutes already! That was good, that was improving. Taker went for the cover—
~1!
~2!
But Shane's shoulder jumped off the mat to break the 3-count. Taker blew out his breath, it'd take a bit more to slow down Shane O' Mac, he thought and picked the junior wrestler up between his thighs. Fixing Shane up for the Last Ride! The audience both behind and in front of Taker screamed as he raised his right hand. The clicking of hundreds of cameras flashed between the crowds but as Taker held Shane up above his head, the McMahon slid off his back and laid down on the mat and pulled Taker by his hips for the older man to fall down – shoulder first.
It was a schoolboy that Shane O' Mac connected.
~1!
~2!
And like that, Taker kicked out. Shane rolled over and quickly stood as the Undertaker slowly got up. It was now time for SHANE to do his Smackdown finisher! The brother-hood combination punch.
Shane stylized as he hit 3 blows on Taker's face before dancing a bit, and finally clutched both his fists into a ball and slammed it across Taker's face. Sending both men outside the ring. But out of the sudden, through the crowds came the unmasked Kane with a chair! The Big Red Monster hopped out of the guard-walls and slammed the chair straight on Shane McMahon's head! Easily disqualifying Undertaker and granting Shane the next person to fight the Big Show!
Over at the announcing table, both Tazz and Michael Cole were nuts! Completely crazed by the fact that Kane came out here and let Shane win the match! . . . By causing damage of course.
But Kane wasn't done just yet, he crashed the steel-chair on his older-brother's spine twice before leaving both competitors a bloody mess.
Cole: WHAT'S going ON here Tazz?!
Tazz: I can't believe it! Kane just came here and CHOSE whom he wanted to fight! And he chose Shane McMahon!
Cole: Shane has qualified because of that chair-shot! And NOW what?
Tazz: Now – its Shane versus Show! More like SvS! Ha, ha!
Cole: How can you joke at a time like this?
Tazz: Sorry!

When the cameras faded back, the match between Shane McMahon and Big Show had already started!
Cole: Welcome back folks, we apologize for that long break, but DURING that period, the 500pound Big Show had entered the ring and started his assault on Shane McMahon already!
Tazz: That's right guys, Taker is STILL laying outside the ring after receiving those high-impacted chair shots from his younger brother.
The screen doubled as the action-packed reply was shown. Big Show's match was short-lived actually, at this time, he was tossing Shane around the ring like a pile of garbage! From this corner to that, throwing the younger McMahon with reinitiated rage! In the past, the Big Show and Shane O' Mac had quite a rivalry. Back then, there was a chant Shane made 'Which way did he go?' taking it off from Elmer Fudd's punchline from the Looney Tunes cartoons. But that was in the past, right now, the pain Shane was receiving could change his way of walking for the next couple of days!
But the bout took a twisted turn when Shane superbly countered a clothesline and hopped onto the top turnbuckle to perfectly connect a spinning elbow drop to the standing Big Show's injured temple! The Show crashed to the apron as Shane went on to the furthest turnbuckle to land another perfect elbowdrop on the huge stomach of the Big Show! But instead of pinning the giant, Shane went on to the other turnbuckle and slammed his elbow on Show's head! Causing the bigger opponent to grab his head in pain as Shane went to do the move a third time. Connecting easily, Shane pinned to get the win!
~1!
~2!
~3!!!!!!!! Ding! Ding! Ding!
The voice of Tony Chimel echoed with the two-thousand fans as Shane O' Mac gained his victory over Two Gigantic foes in ONE DAY! "HERE IS YOUR WINNER! SHANE MCMAHONN!"
Even the Undertaker was proud of Shane's courageous victory! The night turned out better than Taker expected it to be! Maybe . . . just maybe if he coached Shane for his match with Kane? That would be perfect!

Bodies have been breached, "How do learn to fall off a 20ft ladder?" "I thought, Shane might've been knocked out," "He's completely out cold!" Necks broken, "I broke my tailbone," "I ruptured a disk in my spinal column" Careers ended in an instant. Yes this IS entertainment. But the hazards are real. "How's he even able to stand! That's what I like to know!" "He doesn't have damn clue where he is!" No matter who you are, whatever you do. PLEASE! Don't try this at home.

Cole: Well every body we're back on Smackdown, and up next is the 6-man Battle Royal Number ONE Contenders match! The first five members have been announced, the sixth and final one hasn't been. Who do thing it WILL be Tazz?
Tazz: I have NO idea Cole. But Big Show fightin' in 2 matches tonight . . . I think that's bad for his injured head.
Cole: Not only that! Triple H has been also beaten BAD earlier tonight! The Champion and Show shouldn't have done what they did Tazz.
Tazz: I agree with you Cole.
The crowd rose to their feet as Tommy Chimel, the ring announcer entered the ring to announce the last match of the night . . . the last match that will determine the Brock Lesner's opponent at the Pay-Per-View. And as Cole just said, "Lesner isn't REALLY the champion! Legally he is supposed to be stripped of that title he wears!" The comment was true, Brock SHOULD be stripped of the title, but he wasn't.
"The following 6-man Battle Royal match, is to determine the NUMBER ONE CONTENDER for the WWE Championship! Making his way to ring, from Boston Massachusetts, weighing 350pound! A-TRAIN!"
Two fogs of steam whistled out of the titan tron as the hairy wrestler walked out. The fans' giving mostly boos to Albert due to his personal-contract with the owner. Every single person, who signed in the 'Vince McMahon kiss-my-ass club' (so to speak), was always presented with boos from the audience and A-Train was no different. His loyalty to the owner has cost him his audience.
Once the bald and hairy superstar was inside the squared-circle, the ring announcer continued on with the next challenger,
"And his opponent, from Alberta Canada, weighing 229pounds. The rabid wolverine, CHRIS BENOIT!"
Benoit's theme was entirely different from that of A-Trains, Chris's one followed a solo guitar to bass to drums. Benoit was one of those wrestlers who didn't like being messed with, he didn't like small talk and one of his mic-skills was that he never talked much. 'Stay to the point and fact', was his motto. Decently, the Canadian Superstar slid into the ring and stood on the upper-left side of the ring, just opposite to Albert who stood on the upper-right side.
"And the challenger," Tony Chimel said once more as the yelling voice of Big Show screamed through the arena, "Weighing in a MASSIVE size of 500-POUNDS! THHE BIG SHOWW!"
And similarly, after Big Show entered Kurt Angle, with his usual positive 'You Suck' chants. Angle weighted 237 pounds and was from Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. The Olympic gold-medallist was one of the most fan-favorite fighters in the match and after him, came the second-most favorite brawler in the match. Triple H's music exploded with the irony that the 'Cerebral Assassin' had entered. But that wasn't the case, Triple H had really recovered after being once more with Stephanie.
After the Game entered the ring, it was now time for the sixth and most important wrestler of the match to make his entrance. "This is IT Cole!" Tazz said over the announcing table, the entire arena was wondering in silence. Undertaker was excused off this match because then he would have two-matches, why was it okay for Big Show to have two-matches was only for the Owner to know. Brock Lesner couldn't be in this match because it is SET to be a number one contender for HIS title! Matt Hardy didn't have enough ranking, Zach Gowen was still injured, and the only other person who was in the arena that night was . . .
"AND Introducing, from the RAW roster list, weighing 326 pounds – THE BIG RED MONSTERR! KANNNNNEEE!"
The Titan-Tron was bursting 20ft high flames as the most horrific creature on WWE practically ran into the ring! Cole and Tazz where yelling, screaming and trying to clarify in their heads. Kane would face Triple H, Kurt Angle, The Big Show, A-Train and Chris Benoit in a fight-to-the-finish 6-Man Battle Royal for the number one contender's spot! NEXT

"Welcome back everybody, as you saw before the break. It was The BIG RED MONSTER KANE who was Hand-chosen by the Owner Mr. McMahon! Why do you think Mr. McMahon would DO this Tazz? Why would he send ANOTHER beast to fight for his own pet's bone?" Michael Cole screamed into the mike, the match had already begun. Triple H was all over Kane, Kurt Angle battled the Big Show and it was A-Train and Chris Benoit facing off each other at the farthest side of the ring.
A-Train tried to throw a right-hand on Benoit's face, but Chris ducked out and the hand swung onto Kane's unmasked jaw! The impact stumbled the Big Red Monster slightly, but it was all Triple H needed to deliver a stunner-type neckbreaker on Kane! Shaking the ring as Chris Benoit slammed a clothesline to a confused A-Train. Over on the Big Show's side of the story, Kurt Angle delivers a perfect dropkick on Show's chest, slightly off-balancing the big guy. But before Kurt could even get to his feet, Show charged in with a shoulder-butt! Knocking the American-hero to the mat. What the Big Show did afterwards was just cruel.
He weighted 500pounds and Kurt weighted only 237. The fat structure of the Show was enough to cause some-people pain in their stomachs, but when Show stood ON their stomachs with all his body-pressure, it was just insane! Kurt could feel his ribs crash as Show painfully stood on Angle's stomach, and what's more, he balanced his body-weight with one-leg!
On Kane and Triple H's battle, H was unstoppable when he simultaneously connected a DDT, a reverse-neckbreaker, a backbreaker and a normal-type suplex! All in one row! But it was a clothesline that stopped H, he was bumped by A-Train and turned around to german-suplex the 350pounder but it was countered and when H turned around, it was a clothesline from hell delivered by Kane!
Big Show by this point, was finished with Kurt Angle, he did A-Train a favor and suplexed Benoit before returning to Kurt. Triple H had enough problems with Kane already.
Albert thought that Chris was out and that this was a perfect chance to belly-to-belly the wolverine , but when Albert tried to pick Chris up, Benoit shoves off Train's hands and tried to do a shoulder-breaker, but A-Train also shoved Benoit's hands and proceeded with a midsection kick – Chris grabbed it and pulled it for A-Train to get Irish whipped to the ropes. There was a German-attempt by Benoit but A-Train somehow landed on his feet! But it wasn't any luck because for some obvious reasons, Kane big-booted the hairy wrestler!
Big Show, at this point, was all over Kurt, he crashed Angle's spine against the south-west turnbuckle. The Big Red Monster saw what Big Show was doing and headed over to help the fellow giant finish the job.
Triple H picked A-Train up but the hairy wrestler shoved Hunter's hands, not noticing Benoit who came by behind him and delivered the perfect German-Suplex he needed!
Triple's eyes locked on Kurt being double-teamed by Big Show and Kane, Kurt was his friend, he needed to save his butt! Triple H ran over to that corner and quickly kicked on Kane's right-knee from behind! Knocking the unmasked monster off balance and letting him fall to the ground.
Kurt Angle whips an exhausted Show against he ropes and does a perfect German Suplex on the 500pounder! Kane recovered quickly and uppercut Triple H on the chin to knock the former champion down. From behind, it was Kurt who pushed against Kane.
Over on Chris and A-Train, Train did a small –but-effective abdominal stretch on Benoit!
Triple H recovers and double-DDT's Kane with Kurt! Kurt with a pin attempt ~1~2 but Kane shoves his right shoulder up. It was a small Kurt vs. Kane and Triple H vs. Big Show as the Game squashes Big Show's face with his knee! Twisting the beast around, H kicks hard on the groan-section. Yes it is legal. And perfectly connects the PEDIGREE! Slamming Show's injured head and body on the ring as it shook violently.
Kurt with a belly-to-belly on Kane as Benoit locks the Crossface on A-Train! Pulling, stretching, trying to yank Albert's jaw off! A-Train's leg was below the bottom-rope but referee Brian Hebner didn't see it!
On Triple H and Big Show's category, H got chokeslammed by Kane as Kurt Angle-slammed The 500pound Big Show on the mat as for the final time that night, the ring rocked with the Big Show's impact. Kurt with a pin attempt ~1!~2!~3!!! TnnTnn Big Show out! The ref had to make it quick and set his focus on A-Train once more because Benoit didn't let go of the cross face yet! Albert, knowing it was no use, tapped out! TnnTnn
Onto Kane, the Monster grabbed Kurt Angle by his throat and prepared for a chokeslam when Triple H slowly rose to his feet to stop Kane. The Big Red Monster slapped his OTHER hand around Triple H's throat again and crashed both men with a double-Chokeslam! It would've been enough for Kane to gain the win but Benoit tried the flying headbutt on the standing Monster! Kane grabbed Chris on mid-air and connected with his finisher – the one he normally does in the stairs but it wasn't necessary. Pinning Benoit, Kane easily got the ~1~2~3! TnnTnn
It came down to Triple H and Kurt Angle versus Kane, the two buddies double-teamed the beast multiple times, but none could get Kane's shoulder on the mat for 3 seconds! The threesome battle lasted more than 15 minutes as at the end, it was Triple H AND Kurt Angle posing a double-Ankle Lock on Kane! But he managed to grab the bottom rope with both of his hands, which prevented Kurt and H from pulling him back like Angle did with Lesner at Summer Slam. Knowing that Kane wouldn't tap out or be settled into 'No Man's Land' as Cole had put it, Triple H and Kurt Angle went for other double-dosed attacks, but none granted them the elimination of Kane.
At one point, after connecting the Angle Slam and the Pedigree, Hunter and Kurt slammed Kane onto the mat with a two-man chokeslam and it HAD to be enough for Kane! But Kurt told H to dive Kane against the pad-less turnbuckle to inflict more damage. When Triple H denied, Kurt tried to grab onto Hunter's ankle for the lock, H countered but the effect knocked Kurt right onto the standing and recovered Kane! The Monster piledrivered Kurt the same way as he did to Benoit, and before Triple H could come in to help, slammed Hunter with yet another Chokeslam! Kane pinned out Kurt Angle ~1!~2!~3. TnnTnn.
But as he covered Triple H, after 2 counts the Game kicked out! It was impossible but he did! The fans were happy about it, but Kane wasn't. He pulled H up and tried to deliver a powerbomb or Last Ride, but Kane's showing-off gave KURT ANGLE the time he needed to quickly connect the Angle Slam from behind! The referee kicked Kurt out, but the damage was done. Triple H was exhausted as hell, he wanted to rest, he wanted to put an end to this nightmare, defeating the Rock, Kurt Angle, Y2J, Kevin Nash, Shawn Michaels was one thing. Defeating Kane, Goldberg and Brock Lesner was completely another. Hunter barely picked the Monster up and delivered a slow, but effective, Pedigree and went for the closest turnbuckle to elbow-drop-pin Kane.
~1! 'This is it,'
~2!! 'This win will give me the match against Brock Lenser'
~3!!!!! TnnTnnTnnnnn
The screams of the fans echoed from ear-to-ear. Triple H has defeated Kane and qualified to Brock Lesner for the WWE Championship! HIS REVENGE WILL BE FULFILLED ON UNLEASHED! "Good night everybody! I'm Michael Cole with Tazz signing off from ANOTHER ground-shaking Smackdown folks! See ya next week!"
