Finally, it was time for the first edition of Monday Night Raw ever to be held in Australia! Randy and Shawn had a safe flight over to the Land Down Under and everyone was feeling good, confident that the show was to be a big success.

On tonight's card, it was gonna be:

Shawn Michaels vs Kane vs Booker T vs Christian vs Rob Van Dam vs Chris Jericho vs Shelton Benjamin vs Chris Benoit vs Eugene in an over the top battle royal to determine the #1 contender for the World Heavyweight Championship next week on Raw.

Trish Stratus defends her Women's Championship against Miss Jackie.

Scotty 2 Hotty vs William Regal.

Randy Orton vs Kurt Angle in a Street Fight.

Triple H defending his World Heavyweight Championship against Ric Flair.

Roxanna was walking to her office when someone called behind her...

"Miss Richards?"

"What is it Kurt?" she asked turning around.

"Can I have a word with you?"

"Sure." she replied, holding the door open while he made his way into the office.

"Do take a seat."

"Thank you. About tonight..."

"I know it's gonna be great isn't it? Your match is gonna steal the show!"

"Do ya really think so?"

"I know so!"

"About the match, look, I don't wanna hurt Randy..."

"Really?"

"Well, physically anyway. I don't want to put him on the shelf again. Are you sure it's a good idea having a match of this style?"

"Look Kurt, if this really is concern you are expressing than I appreciate it but I can assure you that if Randy couldn't wrestle because of the state of his back he would say so. I have been advertising this match for over a week now, it's important that we go ahead with it..."

"So you don't care about the state of your employees?"

"No, I never said that!"

"What did you mean then?"

Before Roxy even got a chance to answer, a rather annoyed World Heavyweight Champion Triple H storms into the room. Both Kurt and Roxy stand up...

"So nice of you to knock!" Roxy smiled sarcastically.

"Beat it Angle, I need to talk..."

"Lets get one thing straight, I was in the middle of a conversation with someone and you have the audacity..."

"It's ok I'll leave Miss Richards. Triple H, good look in your match tonight. Just watch out for that door as you walk out this office, if might crush your ego, in fact, I'm surprised you can get in here anyway..."

"Ha ha, so funny Kurt, yet, so pointless, just like you!"

"Ok, just leave Kurt yeah?"

Kurt scowled at Triple H but left at Roxy's demand. Triple H and Roxy both sat down.

"I have a feeling I know what this is gonna be about..."

"How can you expect me to do this, have a match with my best friend, beat it up like there's no tomorrow, huh?"

"It made no difference when you did that to Shawn just before Summer Slam, 2002!"

"That was different, Michaels needed to be put in his place. Look, I'm not asking for much, but please, just change the opponent."

"Why?"

"Coz I've asked you to!"

"You'll disappoint the fans."

"Screw the fans!"

"That's it, I've had enough of this! You either defend the belt against Ric tonight or I shall strip you of your belt and suspend you indefinitely!"

"You can't do that!"

"Oh yes I can! No further questions?" Roxy asked, opening the door for The Game to leave.

He sneered at her as he left, not saying a word.

A few hours later it was time for the Street Fight. Shawn Michaels had won the battle royal to become the #1 contender, Trish had regained her title by outside interference,

William Regal defeated Tag Team partner Scotty 2 Hotty.

Both men entered. Kurt and Randy pummelled on each other as soon as Randy had go into the ring after a loud cheer from the Aussie crowd. Both men quickly found weapons to use on each other. Kurt picked a steel chair and Randy found a bin, shouting "It's time to take the trash out!" The fans went wild. Kurt was ruthless through the match and it soon became obvious to Roxy that he was just bluffing earlier. He hit many attacks on Randy, but each time, he got up again, and came back stronger. That was until Kurt hit the third Angle Slam of the match...he realised that the Ankle Lock wouldn't do any damage to Randy's back so it was a waste of time using it. Kurt managed to pick up a three count as Randy lay bleeding in the middle of the ring after being busted open by a relentless Kurt.

Roxy went up to Kurt as he came into the back, looking rather proud of himself as he smeared Randy's blood over his chest.

"So much for not wanting to hurt Randy physically!"

"Roxy, sweetheart, keep your nose out. He's not your problem anymore." Kurt responded walking away.

'Why does it feel like it is my problem?" Roxy sobbed inside to herself.

While the main event was on, Roxy headed to Randy's locker room 'just to check up on him'. He was sat with a plaster over his forehead watching his old team-mates battle it out.

"Hey, do you mind if I come in?" she asked quietly.

"No not at all." Randy said standing up.

"I'm sorry..."

"What for?"

"Putting you in that match against Kurt..."

"Don't worry about it, you win some you loose some."

"Did you have a good flight the other day?"

"Yeah it was fine thanks. How was yours?"

"Good, well, I'm here in one piece so I guess it was!"

They both laughed lightly for a few seconds.

"Well, I'd better leave you for a while..."

"You don't have to, not if you don't want to. Stay and watch the rest of the match." Randy urged, sitting back down on the bench, patting the seat next to him for Roxy to sit next to him. She did so and smiled at him.

"How's your head?" she asked, touching the plaster softly.

"Hurts, but oh well, it goes with the territory."

"Guess so." She said leaning back against the wall.

Ric Flair vs Triple H was by far neither mans best match. Neither of them could face hurting each other and this was annoying Roxy...

"What the hell are they doing, having a barn dance?" she asked, more confused than anything.

Towards the end of the match, one person did pick up their game; Triple H. He managed to pin long term friend Ric after a Pedigree. He left the ring with a smile plastered to his face, Ric sat in the ring looking more confused and frustrated. Something was gonna give sooner or later...
