The road to Vengeance and Saturday Night's Main Event has officially started.
The Undertaker continues to play mind games with Kane and Randy Orton, this time costing them a shot at The WWE Undisputed Championship.
Speaking of Randy Orton, he has gotten himself in VERY hot water. Earlier in the night, he attacked The Undertaker's manager, Paul Bearer. After she heard of this, Stephanie McMahon announced the first Vengeance match. Paul Bearer vs. Randy Orton.
Then, the impossible happened. Randy Orton asked Shawn Michaels for advice on how to deal with The Undertaker's mind games. HBK told him to take his head out of his ass and stop being arrogant. Michaels went out to his ladder match with Marty Jannety when Randy Orton struck. Orton climbed a ladder and gave HBK a RKO off of the ladder through four tables. What will the repercussions be this Monday? The Undisputed Tournament wages on.

"Hello everyone and welcome to Monday Night Raw! I'm Good Ole' JR along with my broadcast partner, Jerry "The King" Lawler. King, last week on Raw, we saw Randy Orton give a huge RKO off a ladder to Shawn Michaels through FOUR tables!" JR said. "HBK, surprisingly, can walk and is here tonight. Later on, he will address the crowd. But our first match here tonight..involves well...puppies." JR said.
"Puppies!" King said.

"That's going to hurt Big Show's rep right there. He blacked out!" JR said, as Shawn Michaels' music hit the loudspeakers. "Uh oh. Here comes the Showstoppa! The Icon! The Main Event! The Heartbreak Kid! SHAWN MICHAELS!"
HBK got into the ring and taunted, before grabbing a microphone. "Listen closely. Last week on Raw, I was moments away from winning the ladder match last week. I was mere inches away from the damn briefcase when that pompous son of a bitch, Randy Orton gave me a RKO off of the ladder and through four tables! Let me ask you a question, Randy? Why? Is it because I spoke the truth? That you're an arrogant son of a bitch and you need to get your head out of your ass? Yes, I'll give you credit. You are a good wrestler. But, I've seen better. Your too arrogant for your good. Somebody needs to put you in your place. When you attacked me last week, I decided that person...would be ME! Now, I'm not cleared to wrestle until...Saturday Night's Main Event. And at Saturday Night's Main Event, Randy, you will be put in your place. It will be a Hell in the Cell match...Kane and Randy Orton vs. The Undertaker...and The Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels! And Randy, come Saturday Night's Main Event, I will kick your teeth down your throat. And until then, Orton...Kane...I've got two words for ya...SUCK IT!" HBK said and dropped the mic. He got out of the ring and walked to the backstage area.
"Folks...I am speechless. Heartfelt words from the Heartbreak Kid. And as we've just learned, Shawn Michaels will team up with the Undertaker in 26 days, the tide is now even. And Stephanie McMahon just gave us word that in 13 days, Shawn Michaels will break the doctor's order and go one-on-one with the Big Red Machine, Kane!" JR said.
"That's not the smartest thing Stephanie could do. She could jeopardize Saturday Night's Main Event's main event, putting HBK in a match, before the doctors clear him. Especially against Kane!" King said.

"Cena might of finally snapped, folks. He goes out there, day in and day out and gives it his all. Now, the fans have turned their backs on him and Cena has had it. Cena might of lost his spark. I'm afraid this might be the last great match we will see from Cena, for a long time." JR said.
Stephanie got on the mic. "The following match is the Chair on a Pole match. The rules are very simple. The first person to climb the pole and grab the steel chair and hit their opponent with it, will be the winner and will advance to the next round of the WWE Undisputed Championship tournament.
