The WWE Chronicles

Chapter Six

Vince McMahon's music hit as Raw came on the air. The chairman of the WWE came to the ring and grabbed a mic. He raised the mic but Shawn Michaels' music hit. The Chairman looked livid. The Heart Break Kid came down and hopped in the ring.

"Don't you come anywhere near me, Shawn, or I will sue you for every penny..." Vince started but Michaels cut him off.

"Oh, shut up, McMahon! I'm not out here to beat you up. No, no. That can wait to Wrestle Mania. I came out here to address the Kurt Angle issue. Vince, you may leave." Shawn said.

"No, I may not. Shawn, get the hell out of my ring. I would like to address the Angle situation." Vince said.

" You can wait. Kurt, let me tell you, I am disappointed in you. When you first started here, I was working backstage. I told you I had faith in you. I told you that I wouldn't be surprised if you went on to do great things. Hell, you actually went on to defeat me. You went to Smack Down for the Battle Royal and you won. You beat Mark Henry three times. In the Battle Royal, the Royal Rumble and No Way Out. And then you found out that the Undertaker would be challenging you at Wrestle Mania in an Inferno Match. And then, Kurt, you backed out. You are scared of the Undertaker. Maybe you need a reminder. I am not scared of the Undertaker. I fought the Undertaker in the first ever Hell in the Cell match. It was a fierce match and not to mention, one hell of a good match. I defeated the Undertaker, despite our size difference. There is no reason why you shouldn't be able to do the same." Shawn said. He went to continue but Kurt Angle's music. The Olympic Gold Medalist and former World Heavyweight Champion came to the ring. He took the mic from Shawn.

"You listen here, Michaels. I am not scared of the Undertaker! I'd just rather not lose my World Heavyweight Championship to some dead guy that has the power to burn me alive!" Angle said. "Now, enough with you, Michaels. You aren't worth my time, Has Been. Now, Vince. I want to know who gets my World Heavyweight Championship. I have to fight some big overgrown monkey at Wrestle Mania. I want..." Angle was cut off from a Sweet Chin Music from Michaels.

The bell gonged. The lights dimmed. The blue mist filled the arena. The Deadman walked out to the entrance way and raised his arms. He got a mic from near the entrance.

"McMahon! Forget Angle and Michaels. I want to know who gets the World Heavyweight Championship." Undertaker said.

"Undertaker, don't you get an attitude with me. You want to know who gets the World Championship? Good, that's great. At the end of tonight you'll know. In the meantime...in the Main Event tonight, Shawn Michaels goes one on one on one with Kurt Angle and the Undertaker!" Vince said. "And, Michaels, I'll see you at Wrestle Mania..if not sooner." he dropped the mic and left. He walked past the Undertaker and patted him on the shoulder. The Deadman took it as a challenge and grabbed the Chairman around the neck. He turned him upside down and gave Vince McMahon a tombstone on the steel ramp. Raw went to it's first commercial with EMTs checking on the Chairman and Kurt Angle.

Raw's First Match: Diva Battle Royal for the Women's Championship

Jerry the King Lawler got on the mic and explained the rules of the Diva Battle Royal. "The rules are simple. It's a Gauntlet. Two divas start. Then, as one gets eliminated by pinfall or submission another diva comes out. This Battle Royal is a double brand match. This will continue until one diva stands. The first two to start will be Melina and Torrie Wilson." the King said. The camera moved to the ring where Smack Down's Melina and Raw's Torrie Wilson were standing. The bell rang.

Torrie started the match by dropkicking the knee of Melina. Melina went down and rolled out of the ring to MnM. Mercury helped Melina back in the ring. Melina went after Torrie and speared her into the turnbuckle. Torrie fell down and Melina picked her right back up. She took a page out of Carlito's book and gave Torrie the Back Cracker. Melina covered for a two. Melina couldn't believe that Torrie kicked out of it. She "accidently" ran into the referee. Nitro and Mercury ran in and gave Torrie the Snap Shot. They rolled out of the ring and Melina picked the ref back up and covered Torrie for the easy three count. The ref helped Torrie out of the ring as Mickie James came running down. She took down MnM and rolled into the ring and gave Melina a low blow, for no apparent reason. Melina went down and Mickie picked her up and gave her a hard Mick Kick straight to Melina's face. Intercontinental Champion John Cena came running down took down Nitro and Mercury. He then checked on Torrie Wilson. In the ring, Mickie covered Melina and got the three. Maria came out next. Maria came running and got taken out by Nitro. Cena got back up and took out Nitro with a Irish Whip to the steel steps. Cena checked on Maria. Maria pulled herself back up and locked a big kiss on Cena. Cena didn't refuse and kissed Maria back. Torrie pulled herself up and saw Cena and Maria kissing. Torrie stormed up the ramp. Cena pulled away from Maria and ran after Torrie.

Maria ran into the ring and took down Mickie with a school boy and got the quick three. Mickie couldn't believe it and jumped on Maria and started to pound her head against the canvas. Trish came running down next and drug Mickie off of Maria and gave Mickie a Chick Kick. Mickie rolled out of the ring and fell to the floor. Maria rolled up Trish and got the three, which guaranteed that we will now have a new Women's Champion. Victoria was next. Candice Michelle accompanied her out to the ring. Vic climbed in the ring and threw Maria against the turnbuckle. She went to speared Maria but Maria moved and Victoria was rolled up by Maria but this time, Maria only got a two. Maria looked scared. Candice got on the apron with her magic wand. She swung it at Maria but Maria shoved Victoria in the way and the wand broke over Victoria, knocking her down. Maria covered Victoria and got the three. Surprisingly, Maria is still in the match. Candice came in and Maria wasn't prepared. Candice kicked her in the back and Maria flew into the turnbuckle. Lita came running down with the WWE Championship and hit Candice with it when the ref checked on Maria. Maria went up to the top rope and hit an elbow drop for the three.

Ashley Massaro was the next diva. She didn't even make it to the ring when Mickie James came back up and hit Ashley with a Mick Kick. Christy Hemme came running down and gave Mickie a bulldog. Christy ran down to the ring. Maria gave her a clothesline and Christy flew over the ropes. Mickie got back up and ran down and jumped on her and punched her non-stop. The ref started the count-out count. The ref got to ten and Mickie got up. The ref counted the ten and Maria is still in the match. The last diva was Stacy Keibler, making a special appearance from her Dancing with the Stars. Stacy ran to the ring and hit kicks on Maria. Stacy picked up Maria and hit a hard DDT for the two. Ashley came running down, after finally getting up. The ref allowed Ashley to get in the ring and she gave Stacy and DDT. She covered Stacy for the three count. Ashley picked up Maria and went to give her a DDT but Maria somehow reversed it into a Northern Lights Suplex for the three. Maria wins the Battle Royal and becomes the new Women's Championship. Maria walked to the backstage area, title held high.

WINNER: MARIA (NEW WOMEN'S CHAMPION)

Match 2: JOHN CENA AND ? AND ? VS. MERCURY, NITRO AND RANDY ORTON

MnM came to the ring, followed by the Legend Killer. Cena came out, looking upset. He grabbed a mic from Lillian Garcia and raised it to his lips.

"Look. Orton, MnM...I am sorry. I couldn't find two people that are in your league. Instead, I found people out of all three of your leagues. Let me introduce my tag partners...Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio!" Cena said. RVD and Mysterio came out and sprinted to the ring. RVD and Nitro started off. Nitro sent RVD into the turnbuckle and ran in and hit a hard clothesline to start off. RVD flew out to the apron. He ran over to the other side and hopped onto the top turnbuckle and flew off with a splash for a two count. Nitro rolled over to his corner, but RVD was faster and ht rolling thunder.

RVD rolled over to his corner and tug in Mysterio. Rey came charging in and took down Mercury with a head scissors.

The Legend Killer then tug himself in. Orton came in and spit in the face of Mysterio. Mysterio didn't do nothing but looked up to the heavens, to Eddie Guerrero. Mysterio kept looking. Orton gave Mysterio an uppercut and still Rey didn't respond. Orton pointed to the heavens and nodded no. He pointed to hell and nodded yes. That set Mysterio off. Mysterio came in with hard kicks to Orton's legs. Mysterio gave Orton a drop toe hold on Orton, who flew into the ropes. Mysterio called for the 619 and ran. Nitro had and chair ready and cracked Rey in the back with it. Rey went down and the ref never saw the chair shot. RVD came with he own chair and ran at Orton who was still in the ropes.

"Mom, I have to go to the bathroom." Shelton said.

"Shelton, there ain't no way you are leaving me.

"Sexual what? No thank you!" Mrs. Benjamin said. Henry pulled her off of her wheelchair and planted a liplock on Mrs. Benjamin. Shelton came out and saw Henry and Mrs. Benjamin kissing and pushed Henry off.

"Oh, Shelton. Sorry. I just wanted to go over the match up next against Goldust and Eugene." Henry said.

"By kissing my mother?" Shelton asked as Mrs. Benjamin slumped into her chair.

"Kurt, before you say anything...I am not reversing my decision. You are going to square off against Michaels and Taker tonight. And in 13 days you will face Mark Henry in that First Blood Match. The only thing I will do is allow you to use weapons, Your match is next, Kurt. Do me a favor and snap Taker's ankle. Actually, never mind. Don't do that. His opponent at Wrestle Mania will end his record and then his hopes of ever becoming World Heavyweight Champion. Go ahead and give them both hell, Kurt." Vince said and dismissed Kurt and sat back and relaxed.

He covered HBK for the three.

WINNER: THE UNDERTAKER

After the match, Taker celebrated. His celebration was cut short by Mark Henry who threw a microphone at him. Taker turned around and saw Henry holding Angle on the steps. Taker made no move to stop him ad Henry gave Angle his finisher on the steel steps and then walked up the ramp, satisfied.

After Henry got backstage, The Undertaker celebrated more but this time his celebration was cut short by Vince McMahon.

"Undertaker...I don't know how you beat both Has-Been and Angle but let me tell you it was impressive. But the decks are stacked against you at Wrestle Mania, Dead Man. Your record is in jeopardy as you face the new World Heavyweight Champion: BATISTA!" McMahon said. "And not only will you face the Animal but you will also face Carlito in a Triple Threat Match, seeing as Carlito is the number one contender, I made his match for him. Good luck at Wrestle Mania, Dead Man. If you make it." McMahon said. Taker looked confused. Batista and Carlito ran out from the crowd and double-teamed Taker. Carlito leveled Taker with the Overdrive and then Batista hit Taker with a Batista Bomb.

Raw went off the air as The Undertaker sat up and rolled his eyes behind his head as Vince, Batista and Carltio looked on, shocked.
