At the start of the show, we see the empty arena in the WWE performance center in Orlando. Which is where Raw is tonight because all of WWE's future events (which may include Wrestlemania) have all been cancelled due to the recent uprising in the dreaded coronavirus.
Ding, ding, ding.
Mike: This opening contest is an open challenge for the WWE championship and the WWE 24/7 championship, currently in the ring accompanied by Kevin Owens and the B-Team...… from the Neutral Zone, weighing in at 69lbs... he is one half of the Raw Tag Team champions, the WWE champion, and the WWE 24/7 champion...… KO!
KO was in the ring, handing all of his belts to his three wrestling friends. "Watch those for mem, keep them safe." he told them before turning to the ramp. Its gonna be a little weird competing in an empty arena style match, but he'll give it his best like he always does.
Mike: And his opponent...
(GLASS SHATTERING)
If there was a crowd, they would have exploded as a certain bald hall of famer with jean sorts, a smoking skull shirt, and a leg brace came out in a Zamboni to a familiar theme. Curt, Bo, and Kevin all freaked at this while KO froze.
Mike: From Austin Texas, weighing in at 252lbs... WWE Hall of Famer... STONE COLD STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE AUUUUUUUUUUSTIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN!
Austin rode his Zamboni down to the ring and immediately got into the ring.
El Latino, Espanyol casaba
Then out came Zelina Vega, with one of her clients in tow.
Mike: And, being accompanied to the ring by Zelina Vega, ANGEL GARZA!
Angel made his way to the ring, flanked by Zelina, he is a former 24/7 champion in his own right. Beating a 12 year old kid for it, but then got pinned by the same 12 year old kid and his sister.
As soon as Angel got in the ring, the ref Mike Chioda called for the bell.
Ding, ding, ding.
Angel was then quickly kicked in the gut, followed by a stunner- but he pushed Steve off. Angel then connected with a superkick to the Hall of Famer's face which sent him down, he then sidestepped KO which sent him out to the west apron. KO then ate a vicious dropkick from Angel which sent him to the floor, where when he got up he was caught by Zelina with a hurricanrana that sent him face first into the stairs.
Angel unhooked a couple buttons on his pants, before getting turned around and hit with a stunner that sent him flying out of his pants and to the center of the ring. Austin with the cover.

But then Zelina came in and broke up the pin.
Austin looked to the business manager, who crawled away from the Rattlesnake. Stone Cold kept glaring a hole through Zelina "You sneaky little bitch, when I get my hands on you I'm gonna open a can of whoop-ass on-" just then he was rolled up by Angel, who put his feet on the ropes.

Austin just kicked out.
Angel quickly hooked Austin for a Wing-Clipper, but Austin flips him over. Garza landed on his feet, but was taken down with a bulldog from Stone Cold.
But as Steven turned around, he was nailed with a Phenomenal Forearm from KO. This knocked Steven down and out of the ring, KO followed up with a Curb Stomp to Angel, driving him face first into the mat. This was usually a prelude to his finisher, but KO dodged a knee from Zelina which made her stumble out of the ring and into the arms of the B Team.
As the two low carders held Zelina in place KO climbed up to the southeast turnbuckle and leaped off with the Turbo Elbow to Angel's back, KO turned him over and hooked a leg.

DING, DING, DING.
"Battlescars" by CFO$ played as KO released the pin, Zelina freaked while the B Team let her go before getting in the ring and joined KO, followed by Kevin Owens.
Mike: The winner of the match, and still the WWE champion and WWE 24/7 champion... KO!
KO was lifted up by Curt and Bo, he then got his hair ruffled Kevin.
Just then Steve came in, the four looked to him before KO hopped off his friends and stepped up to the Texas Rattlesnake. Steven snickered and held out a hand, "Nice one, kid."
KO smiled and accepted the handshake, "Thanks Mr. Austin."
Austin then called for a can of beer from the stage hands, who tossed him a can. Which he tossed to Curt, then he did the same for Bo and Kevin. KO felt a little left out, but Steve remedied that with a juicebox. The five of the celebrated with beer and juice, it all looked fun.
Until Steven dropped KO with a stunner, making the triple champion flip backwards and spit out the juice. He then clotheslined Curt, then Bo, before kicking Kevin in the gut and hit him with his Stunner. "Now that's how its done." Steve wasn't finished, he went outside the ring and pulled out a chair from underneath the ring. he slid back inside and nailed chair shots to the heads of Curt and Bo. He then placed the chair in the center of the ring, saw KO getting up before grabbing the champion and delivering a piledriver to the chair.
Austin then covered KO, Chioda still in the ring went to count the pin.

Austin got up as his theme played again, he grabbed the 24/7 title and held it as he was tossed another beer can.
Mike: Here's your winner, and NEW WWE 24/7 champion... STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN!
Austin downed the can before leaving the ring, and riding off on his Zamboni.
Once Steve got to the parking lot, he was hit out of nowhere with a flying meteora that knocked him out of his Zamboni, which rode off as the mystery attacker covered Austin. Ref Jessica Carr came out of hiding and counted.

The assailant revealed itself to be a tall high school student in black uniform, with short wavy black hair, and a pair of black rim glasses his pushed against his nose before picking up the 24/7 title. He was just about to leave when he heard a groan behind him.
"Who the hell are you?" Steven groaned as he pulled himself up.
The new 24/7 champion turned his head to him and muttered, "Haven't you heard, I'm Sakamoto." before making a quick exit.
Title changes: Stone Cold Steve Austin def. KO for the 24/7 championship, Sakamoto def. Stone Cold Steven Austin for the 24/7 championship.
Well that's the end of KO's time with the 24/7 title...… for now. At least he still has the WWE and Raw Tag titles. Let me know what you thought of his run over the last 12 chapters, what was your favorite moment during his run?
