Chapter Forty Four: Challenge Issued

---x---

A/N: Okay, before I start I'd like to warn everyone, there are going to be quite a few changes taking place. I plan on doing my own Traditional Survivor Series match and the Raw storylines don't work for me. So I'm going to be making changes to Raw and the Pay Per View Card.

First, the pointless Snitsky Squash Match did NOT happen, Carlito faced 'Joey' (the Jobber) on his own and thus did not get his ass kicked. I need Snitsky.

Second, Cody Rhodes will not be facing Trevor Murdoch, he's facing Robbie McAllister. I need Cade and Murdoch too.

Third, I'm not including the D-X Girls Dance Segment. I have something in mind for that filler part, and I don't need Triple H to 'waste time'.

Fourth, I'm changing two Survivor Series Matches. Hornswoggle will face Big Daddy V, instead of Khali. As a result Kane and Big Daddy V will be removed from the Traditional Survivor Series Match and will be replaced with Balls Mahoney and the Miz.

Usually I try to refrain from making changes, but in all actuality I can do whatever I want, since I'm the All-Powerful Author. But don't worry, my Survivor Series Match will actually have a storyline leading up to it, and to make up for my changes, I'm going to have THREE updates this week, one for Raw, one for ECW, and one for Smackdown.

Raw was live from the Staples Center in Los Angeles California. Rey Mysterio and Jeff Hardy had just beaten Finlay and Mr. Kennedy in their Tag Team Match. The camera then went backstage and showed Santino in the back, but then Maria and Machetti, who was wearing his wrestling gear and a Chaos Inc t-shirt, walked up.

"Santino, I heard a that Stone Cold is gonna be here tonight," Maria informed Santino.

Santino glared at Machetti then turned to Maria, "Maria, that is just a rumor, Hollywood is full of them, Stone Cold will-a not be here tonight-a!"

"Look, scum bag, Stone Cold WILL be here!" snapped Machetti, "and you are finally going to learn what happens when you mess with the Rattlesnake."

"Even if Stone Cold shows up tonight-a, I brought this just in case-a," replied Santino as he pulled out a paper bag, "Stone Cold can try to act his way out of it."

"Fine, do your little segment… in fact… take Maria out there with you," said Machetti, "I've been constantly warning you to watch your mouth and you don't seem to catch on. So now, I'll be standing back here watching you learn your lesson the hard way. And I'm going to enjoy every minute of it."

Santino glared at Machetti, then turned to Maria, "Let's go," he told her before walking off.

Maria turned and glanced at Machetti, "Go on, I've been waiting six weeks for this." Maria shrugged then followed after Santino, and with that Raw went to a commercial break.

---x----

Raw was back and Santino was quickly learning his lesson. Stone Cold DID show up, and ended up hitting Marella with a Stunner. Then while Santino was leaning against the corner, with a copy of the Condemned in his mouth, Austin went to the back and got a Beer Truck then sprayed Marella with the hose, practically drowning him in beer. Stone Cold stood in the corner and posed for the fans, but then he noticed Maria, who was checking on Santino. Austin smirked and threatened to spray Maria with the beer, while the Diva begged off. The fans let out a cheer as Machetti came sprinting from the back with a mic, then slid in the ring and stood in between Maria and the Rattlesnake.

"Austin, I have all the respect in the world for you," said Machetti, "but I can't let you spray her." Machetti motioned to Maria. Stone Cold stared at Machetti then reached out and asked Machetti to hand him the mic, which Machetti did after making sure Maria got out of the ring.

"Now hold on kid, let me make sure I've got this right," started Austin, "you just ran down here…" What "… and you interrupted me…" What "… and you order me…" What"… NOT to spray your little girlfriend with all this beer here?" What, At that Machetti nodded.

"Your one crazy Sum Bitch you know that right?" laughed Austin, Machetti smirked and shrugged. "Now I appreciate you standing up for me, but you of all people should know that Stone Cold don't answer to nobody!" Then before Machetti could say anything, Austin dropped the mic, raised the hose, and sprayed beer all over Machetti. Machetti fell to the mat and was soon completely drenched and laying in a puddle of beer. But what surprised everyone was that Machetti was laughing. Stone Cold eventually turned off the hose, and shook his head at Machetti's antics, then picked up his discarded mic.

"Well kid, I must say, you've got a lot of balls," commented Stone Cold, "or maybe you're just really stupid. Stone Cold doesn't like most people… but you're alright." With that the Glass Shattered and Austin's music hit. Stone Cold dropped the mic, then called for a beer, then another, and another. Stone Cold left Machetti laughing in the puddle of beer and stood on top of the Beer Truck as Raw went to a commercial.

---x---

When Raw came back Machetti still in the ring. During the commercial the ring crew had changed the mat, and Maria and Santino had been removed from ring side. Machetti was still soaked from the beer, but now had a mic. "Well, now that that's over… lets get back to the real reason I'm out here. Paul, Brian, get your asses out here! We've got a match tonight!"

As if on cue, London and Kendrick's theme music hit and the tag team in question came out from the back and sprinted down to the ring. Paul and Brian didn't even attempt to hide the fact that they were laughing at Machetti, who was still drenched in the beer from before. Machetti simply shrugged then pulled/peeled off his wet t-shirt and tossed it out of the ring.

The music of the World Tag Team Champions hit and Cade and Murdoch came out from the back and headed down to the ring. Lance and Trevor stopped short of getting in the ring, and smirked at Machetti, who was wringing out his still damp hair. But then Snitsky's music hit. Snitsky came out from the back and headed down the ramp, then he, Cade, and Murdoch got in the ring and stood across it from Machetti, London, and Kendrick. This was a six-man tag match.

The referee bravely got in the ring and stood in between of the two teams as they went to their corners. Snitsky kept standing in the middle of the ring, and completely ignored his partners. Cade and Murdoch shrugged then got out of the ring and onto the ring apron, it was okay with them if Snitsky wanted to start the match. On the other side of the ring, Machetti had offered to start off, and his partners had taken him up on it.

Once London and Kendrick had gotten out of the ring, the referee called for the bell signaling the start of the match. Snitsky charged right at Machetti, but Machetti, who was still wet from the beer, slipped out of Snitsky's grip, and got behind him. Snitsky turned around and rushed at Machetti for a Clothesline, but Machetti ducked under it, then spun around and hit Snitsky with a Corkscrew Dropkick, sending the psycho staggering back into the corner his team was in.

Machetti ran into the corner and then jumped up and nailed Snitsky with a Turnbuckle Crossbody. Machetti stepped back stood in the middle of the ring with a smirk on his face. Cade glared at Machetti, then reached over and tagged himself in. Cade got in the ring and called for a Lock Up. Machetti raised his arms locked up with Cade, but when Lance went to turn it into a Side Headlock, the wet Machetti, slipped out of it, then grabbed Cade and nailed him with a Neckbreaker.

Machetti got up and pulled Cade up to his feet, then wrenched Lance's arm and dragged him into the corner where he tagged in Kendrick. Brian climbed up onto the top rope, then jumped off and connected with an Elbow Bat to the Shoulder. Machetti kept Cade standing then gave Cade's arm to Brian and got out of the ring. Kendrick used his hold on Cade's arm to pull him into the middle of the ring, then jumped and did a Monkey Flip while holding onto the arm, launching Cade over him while wrenching his arm in the process. Cade pulled himself up off of the mat with the ropes then rushed at Kendrick.

But Brian dropped down causing Cade to run over him and into the ropes. Kendrick bounced off of the ropes and came back, just in time of Brian to spring up off of the mat, then take Lance down with a Jumping Calf Kick. With Cade down Kendrick quickly followed up and went for a pin, ONE… TWO… but Cade kicked out. Brian got back up then pulled Cade up to his feet. Kendrick wrenched Cade's arm, then dragged him into the corner where he tagged in Paul. London climbed up onto the top rope then came off and connected with an Elbow Bat to the Shoulder, sending Lance crashing down to the mat. Brian got out of the ring, and left Paul to take over.

Paul pulled Cade up off of the mat, then dragged him back into the middle of the ring. London went to whip Lance into the ropes, but Cade reversed it, then bent down for a Back Body Drop. But instead of getting launched up into the air, London jumped up into the air, then drove his feet down into Cade's exposed back for a Mushroom Stomp, driving Lance's face down to the mat. London crawled over to Cade, and rolled him onto his back for a pin, ONE… TWO… TH… Cade kicked out.

London got up off of Cade and pulled him up to his feet, then went to whip him into the Chaos Inc corner. But Cade reversed it and sent London into the corner Snitsky and Murdoch were in. Lance rushed at Paul and went for a Clothesline into the Corner, but London got his foot up, causing Cade to run full speed into it, then go staggering backwards back into the middle of the ring.

While Cade was recovering, London reached behind him and hoisted himself up onto the top rope, but before he could do whatever he was planning to do, Snitsky reached out and shoved Paul as hard as he could. London was launched over Cade's head and came crashing down, almost on the other side of the ring. Lance quickly grabbed Paul's leg and dragged him back into the middle of the ring, then went for the pin, ONE… TWO… THR… but Paul kicked out.

Lance shook his head, then got up and went to the corner where he tagged in Trevor. Murdoch came in, and walked over to London, Cade lifted Murdoch up from behind, then dropped his partner down on top of London for a Double Team Leg Drop. Cade quickly got out of the ring, while Murdoch went for a pin, ONE… TWO… TH… London kicked out.

Murdoch pulled London up off of the mat, then bend him over and clubbed him across the back, causing Paul to drop down to his knees. Trevor let go of London and let Paul crawl away towards the corner. But before Paul could make a tag, Murdoch grabbed onto Paul's leg and dragged him back across the ring into the other corner. But before Murdoch could do anything else, Snitsky reached out and tagged himself in. Murdoch yelled at Snitsky for tagging himself in, but Snitsky just glared at Murdoch and ignored him.

But while the other two were arguing Paul got up and ran to the ropes, then bounced off of them and came back with a Clothesline on Snitsky. But it wasn't enough to knock the big man down. London turned around and ran back into the ropes, then came off with another Clothesline attempt, but as Paul was rushing forward, Snitsky shot his leg up, causing London to run right into it for a Big Boot. Snitsky then went for a pin, ONE… TWO… THRE… Machetti came in and broke it up.

The referee yelled at Machetti and forced him back into the corner. Snitsky got up and glared at Machetti, then pulled Paul up off of the mat, turned him upside down and slammed him down to the mat for a Scoop Slam. Snitsky then jumped up into the air and came crashing down across Paul's throat for a Standing Leg Drop, then went for another pin, ONE… TWO… THRE… London just kicked out.

Snitsky glared down at Paul then got up and was about to do something when Cade reached his arm in the ring and called to be tagged in. Snitsky turned around and reluctantly tagged Cade in. Lance nodded at Snitsky then got down on one knee and motioned to London with his head. Snitsky seemed to get the idea, because he went back over to Paul, then picked him up and held him up above his head for a Military Press, and then he dropped London down across Cade's knee, probably crushing London's stomach. Snitsky got out of the ring, and Lance went for a pin, ONE… TWO… THRE… Kendrick came in and broke up the pin.

The referee got up and practically chased Kendrick back into the corner and made sure he got out of the ring. With the referee gone, Cade got up to his feet, then pulled Paul up and whipped him into the ropes. London bounced off of the ropes, and Lance reached out, looking to grab Paul and hit him with the Sit-Down Spinebuster. But as Lance reached out to grab London, Paul jumped up, grabbed Cade, then drove his head down to the mat for a sudden DDT.

Both men were down in the middle of the ring, the referee came over and started the Double Knock Out Count. Cade pulled himself up with the ropes, while Paul crawled towards the corner and attempted to make a tag. But before he could reached Machetti's out-stretched hand, Lance managed to grab his leg and dragged him back into the middle of the ring.

But while Cade was holding onto his leg, Paul fought up onto his other foot, then jumped up and connected with an Enzuigiri. Cade went down and rolled into his corner, while London made it to the other one. Cade tagged in Murdoch, while London tagged in Machetti which received a loud pop from the fans. Murdoch and Machetti got in the ring, and charged at each other. But when Trevor went for a Clothesline, Machetti dropped down and rolled under his arm, then jumped up onto Murdoch's shoulder when the both turned around, then sent him flying across the ring with a Hurricurana.

Machetti got up and grabbed Murdoch, then whipped him into an empty corner. Machetti ran at him, then nailed him with a Turnbuckle Crossbody, then launched Trevor across the ring with another Hurricurana. Machetti jumped up to his feet, then climbed up onto the top rope. He turned to face his opponent, then launched himself across the ring and connected with a Diving Head-butt, then went for a pin, ONE… TWO… THR… Snitsky came in and broke it up.

Machetti got up but Snitsky reached out and used a hold on Machetti's shoulder to force him down onto his knees. But while Machetti was down, Kendrick came in, then ran over, up Machetti back and connected with a Jumping Calf Kick right to Snitsky's face. Snitsky lost his hold on Machetti and staggered back into the ropes. Brian and Machetti then charged forward and hit Snitsky with a Double Clothesline taking him over the top rope and down to the floor.

Kendrick then turned to Machetti and motioned for him to pick him up. Machetti smirked, grabbed Kendrick and lifted him up into the air, then tossed him over the top rope and out of the ring, causing him to take down Snitsky on the outside. Machetti turned away from the ropes but suddenly Cade came over and took Machetti's head off with a Hard Clothesline. But while Cade was standing over Machetti, London got back in the ring, ran over to Cade then jumped up and hit him with a Dropsault from behind. Lance was launched forward, through the ropes and down to the floor. London quickly ran forward, launched himself over the top rope and came down on Cade for a Suicide Plancha.

But in all of the confusion, Murdoch had recovered and managed to crawl over to Machetti and draped his arm over him for a pin, ONE… TWO… THRE… Machetti just got his shoulder up. Trevor looked down at Machetti in shock, then turned and glanced at the referee and held up three fingers, he was sure that was three. But the referee shook his head and informed Murdoch that it was only a long two count. Trevor shook his head, then turned back to Machetti and started pulling him up off of the mat, but suddenly Machetti lashed out his arms and pushed Murdoch off of him and into the ropes. Trevor hit the ropes and bounced off of them, but Machetti caught him and nailed the Machete's Blade, then made the cover, ONE… TWO… THREE! HE GOT IT!

Riot Time hit as Machetti got up to his feet and celebrated in the ring. London and Kendrick soon joined him as Lillian stood up in the corner, "Ladies and gentlemen, here are your winners; Paul London, Brian Kendrick, and Machetti!" While the three Chaos Inc members celebrated Murdoch rolled out of the ring and stood with Cade and Snitsky at ring side, all three of them glared at the superstars in the ring.

Machetti eventually noticed this and went over to the corner and got a mic, then turned to face the three opponents, "Nice try guys, but you're going to have to try harder than that to beat the three of us!"

Snitsky and Murdoch kept glaring at Machetti while Cade went over to the Time Keeper's corner and got a mic. "You guys just got lucky!" snapped Cade, "any time it actually counts, we'd kick the crap out of all three of you!"

"Is that right?" questioned Machetti, "well then why don't you try that next Sunday at Survivor Series!"

Cade took a moment to glance at Snitsky and Murdoch, then turned back to Machetti, "What did you have in mind?"

"You three versus the three of us in a Traditional Five-on-Five Survivor Series Match," answered Machetti, "we both have until they Pay-Per-View to name the other two members of our respective teams. What do you say?"

Cade turned to the two men beside him, Murdoch slapped him across the back and nodded, saying he was in, while Snitsky, who could never turn down a chance to inflict pain, nodded as well. Cade turned back to Machetti with a smirk on his face, the he shouted, "WE ACCEPT!"

Machetti smirked then he, London, and Kendrick slid out of the ring and headed to the back as Raw went to a commercial, the challenge had been issued and had been accepted, but come Survivor Series, what were the teams going to be?
