Kimberly Posted December 27, 2022 Author Share Posted December 27, 2022 Raw opens to still images from last night at Judgment Day focusing heavily on Chris Jericho vs Undertaker for the World Heavyweight Title. We see the finish that saw Jericho hook the ropes for leverage but special referee Stone Cold Steve Austin did not see it as Jericho defeated The Deadman. We cut into the arena and see Undertaker walking down a hallway pushing over equipment and yelling at staff to get out of his way as he makes his way toward the arena. The Deadman is pissed and he's apparently on his way out...welcome to Monday Night Raw. JUNE WEEK 1 AMERICAN AIRLINES ARENA DALLAS, TX Undertaker power walks down to the ring without music or fanfare. He walks over to the ringside area and orders Lillian Garcia to give him a microphone and she wisely does. Taker gets into the ring and paces around the ring before speakingTaker says that he has been through a lot after a decade of destruction in this damned business, but never before has Taker been as pissed off as he is right now. Last night at Judgment Day, Stone Cold Steve Austin screwed Taker out of the World Title and it was clear as day. Taker says that he does not give a damn what excuse Austin comes up with, it’s all bs. Austin went into that match last night with the intention of costing Taker the World Title and now his ass belongs to the Deadman. Taker says that this damn show will not happen until Austin gets out here and gets the ass kicking that he has coming to him…. The owner of Monday Night Raw, Ric Flair comes out to the ring and he is cautious as he enters the ring. Flair tells Taker to calm down because he is not letting this get out of hand. Taker tells Flair that he is not playing this game with him, he knows that Ric has had it out for Taker since the Deadman beat up Flair’s snot nosed brat of a kid, so send Austin out or this show will go to hel…. Austin comes running out to the ring and slides into the ring but before he can ever get to Taker, Flair is already in between Austin.. Flair says that this is not happening, Raw will not be taken over by Austin and The Undertaker. Now Stone Cold has told Ric Flair earlier tonight that he did not see Taker’s foot on the ropes and Flair is taking Austin at his word. But these two will not go to war tonight. Flair calls for police to run down and separate Taker and Austin as he tells them that later tonight, Flair will announce what he will do about the title situation. But before Flair can continue, Austin breaks free and Taker punches a cop and the two men are at each other. Wrestlers run down as Flair calls for help and orders us to go to commercial. Raw returns to a split screen of footage of “During the Break” where we see both Austin and Taker being surrounded and escorted out of separate sides of the arena. The World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho arrives in the middle of this and grins like a Cheshire Cat as he sees what his two adversaries are going through. VAL VENIS VS EDDIE GUERRERO A back and forth match for a bit that Eddie controls early, but then Val starts to fight into. The finish sees Chavo Guerrero show up to slip his uncle a chair and then distracts the ref and Eddie wallops Val before disposing of the evidence and nailing the Frog Splash for the pinfall. WINNER BY PINFALL: EDDIE GUERRERO After the match, Eddie and Chavo hug each other at ring side. Eddie shouts at the camera that La Familia has been formed. We go back to last night and see how Molly Holly became the new Women’s Champion. When we come back, the new Women’s Champion will appear on Raw. Raw returns to a commercial for WWE Bad Blood which airs in less than four weeks, Live and only on Pay-Per-View. The new Women’s Champion Molly Holly is at the Raw set to be interviewed about her win last night at Judgment Day. Instead of speaking, Molly keeps looking at her title like it is the holy grail while clutching her “Book of Molly” tight to her chest. Molly just says “purity always wins” before walking off without ever doing the interview. BOOKER T VS GOLDUST After a back and forth match, with near falls - Booker T nails the Book-End but Test comes out onto the ramp and Booker sees him and is distracted This allows Goldust to sneak up behind Book and hit the Curtain Call for the pinfall. WINNER BY PINFALL: GOLDUST After the match while Goldust is beaming over his triumphant victory over Booker, Test is backing up the ramp in smug satisfaction. Booker is furious at the loss. A promotional video for Kurt Angle airs showing the history in WWE of Olympic Gold Medalist including his win last night at Judgment Day. Your olympic hero has the week off, but never fear…. Kurt Angle will return to Raw soon. Raw returns to the darkened room that we have seen so often. A manic scream can be heard coming from seemingly everywhere and we can see furniture has been destroyed. A mirror lays shattered into a bunch of pieces but we see dark hair in its reflection just as the video ends BEAUTIFUL BOBBY EATON VS BROCK LESNAR W/PAUL HEYMAN Heyman watches with utter glee as his monster, the Next Big Thing just annihilates the legendary Bobby Eaton. Lesnar suplexes him nearly out of his own boots before powerbombing Bobby over and over again and then hitting the F5 for the decisive victory. WINNER BY PINFALL: BROCK LESNAR After the match, Paul Heyman screams at his client to show no mercy and do the F5 again. Brock eagerly complies and medical personnel come out to check on the condition of Eaton. Brock Lesnar’s path of destruction continues. We go back to earlier tonight where Ric Flair had to prevent a brawl between The Undertaker and Stone Cold Steve Austin. We are told that both men have been escorted out of the building and have left the arena area. Ric Flair will return to address us on Raw later tonight. A commercial for Raw’s Homecoming airs. Raw’s Homecoming is one week away and only on the USA Network! AL SNOW VS BILLY W/CHUCK Al fares well for a bit, but the constant distractions by Chuck eventually lead to the tide turning and soon, Snow eats the Fame Asser for the pinfall. WINNER BY PINFALL: BILLY After the match, Billy and Chuck beat up on the head trainer of Tough Enough until Matt & Jeff, The Hardy Boyz come running down to the ring and clear the ring. The brothers Hardy point at the World Tag Team Titles as they know that one day soon, they will get their shot having won last night at Judgment Day. In the back, William Regal is with Kevin Kelly and he talks about recently returning home and reconnecting with an old mate. Someone as nasty as Regal is a gentleman. And once they reconnected, Regal went to Mr. Flair and asked for his friend to get a job…and here he is. Regal introduces Sir. David Taylor to Raw and says that their goal is to bring dignity back to Raw and they’re starting with Mark Henry. We see Edge warming up. When we come back, he is in action against Mr. Perfect in our featured contest….next on Raw. Raw returns and we see JR & King at the announce booth. They hype the return of Raw to the USA Network and talk about the historic moments that have been on USA Network. JR & King say that they can’t wait to return home next week. MR. PERFECT VS EDGEThis is a nice mix of styles and it is a fast paced Raw main event. Edge opens with the momentum and scores a couple of near falls on Mr. Perfect, but Edge misses a Spear and face plants into a turnbuckle as Raw goes to commercial. When Raw returns, Perfect dominates the young babyface, but is unable to put Edge down. After a few false comebacks, Perfect knees Edge in the head and goes for the Perfect Plex. But Edge goes dead weight and when Perfect tries to pick Edge up again, Edge back drops him and then nails the Spear for the 3 count. WINNER BY PINFALL: EDGE The owner of Monday Night Raw, Ric Flair is seen exiting his office and walking down the hallway with his best friend, Arn Anderson at his side. The two are in deep talks as it is clear that the boss is on his way out to the arena. The Nature Boy closes Raw...after this final time out. Raw returns with Ric Flair already in the ring. The Nature Boy says that he has a few announcements to make, but before he does...he would like to invite the Heavyweight Champion of the World, Chris Jericho to come out to the ring. Jericho does so playing to the crowd and acting cockily but there is confusion that clearly plays on the face of Y2J. Flair tells the World Champion to hang tight for a second, all will soon become clear. Flair says that he had hoped to have Stone Cold Steve Austin and The Undertaker out here tonight for this moment, but their actions earlier tonight has prevented that. So, he hopes both are watching right now from their hotel rooms because, while Flair believes that Stone Cold did not intentionally screw The Undertaker last night, it is clear that Taker does. Those two men have some bad blood and so now they must fight. In 27 days, live on Pay Per View from Columbus, Ohio it will be Stone Cold Steve Austin versus The Undertaker.........and the winner will receive a title match at the World Heavyweight Champion at the end of the summer at Summerslam!!!! But here is the part that Chris Jericho will care about. Ric says that nearly ten years ago, this program would debut on USA Network and change the course of professional wrestling history forever. USA Network had been the home of this program for seven years after that historic night...until the ego of Vince McMahon ruined it. Vince McMahon was promised the moon by Viacom, promises that never came to be by the way, and so he betrayed the trust of his friends at USA to run to Viacom and TNN. Hell, USA even tried to sue Vince because of it! When the WWE board decided that Raw and everything that is part of this company was to be owned by the Nature Boy, Flair immediately began to repair that relationship, which was quite easy to do once McMahon was out of the picture, and once it was repaired - Flair used the out clause in the contract with TNN to do a deal to bring Raw home!!! Next week, Monday Night Raw returns to the USA Network for Raw's Homecoming! And a night like that needs to be the biggest and best night that we can provide. Next week, the new Women's Champion Molly Holly will not "address" the audience, she will be competing as she makes her first title defense against...Jazz. Next week at Homecoming, the World Tag Team Champions Billy & Chuck will defend...against The APA and the winners of that match will meet the Hardy Boyz at Bad Blood. And now for our World Champion....Chris Jericho will not be defending the title on ppv in 4 weeks...because he will be in action much sooner. Next week at Raw Homecoming, it will be the World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho defending that title against..... Jericho interrupts the owner and aaks what loser has Flair drug out of a hole to be embarrassed by on national tv? What pathetic never was would even be stupid enough to face the best wrestler in the world today? Flair smiles, struts around and then decks Jericho in the chin before screaming...."THEEE NATURE BOYYYYYY, WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!" Ric Flair bails from the ring and grabs onto the World Title celebrating with the fans before tossing it back into the ring at the champ. Jericho is rubbing his jaw in disbelief....Monday Night Raw is returning home next week for Homecoming and on that night will Ric Flair become the 17 time Heavyweight Champion of the world?!? Don't miss Raw's Homecoming, next week on USA!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pipers Pit Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 (edited) A recap of the Smackdown matches from Judgment Day are shown in the form of still pictures and the audio calls of Michael Cole and Tazz. JUNE WEEK 1 COX CONVENTION CENTER OKLAHOMA CITY, OK Hardcore Champion Rhyno comes down to the ring. “Triple H,...I broke you. When I hit you with that Gore, I felt your insides shift, I felt your bones break. But I’m not done with you. No, because I don’t just want this title…I want YOUR title. I am an undefeated World Champion. You’re looking at the ECW Champion. But since they took that away. I’ll take yours away! I’m going to find you and I’ll finish what I started at Judgment Day! A quick replay of Rhyno’s promo moments ago is shown. Cole: Tazz, I’ve been told Triple H may have suffered broken ribs at Judgment Day following the sneak attack by Rhyno and now he wants to call the champion out. Tazz: Rhyno is a bad dude, Cole and he’s no dummy. He knows Triple H is hurting and he’s vulnerable. Cole: But what about facing a man when he’s at his best if you want to take his title? Tazz: Spoken like a guy who’s never been in a fight in his life! PERRY SATURN VS JAMIE NOBLE Noble has fire but Saturn uses his power advantage to bully Noble around the ring and grinds him down with a series of stretches and suplexes. With Noble in position, Saturn locks in the Rings of Saturn and Noble quickly submits. WINNER BY SUBMISSION: PERRY SATURN Saturn gets his arm raised and seems especially psyched up. Tazz comments that he is a very dangerous man and anyone who overlooks him does so at their own peril. Hogan: Look out, nWoites, that would-be sumo Rikishi wanted a piece of the nWo. Hall: Yea, and so we did what anyone would do to decide which of us gets the honor. The three of them go through a rock-paper-scissors routine. Nash: Ut oh, lookie there. It’s Big Sexy and tonight, there won’t be a stinkface, or dancing but there will be one thing. Hall: What’s what Kev? Nash: An earthquake when I drop his fat ass. The all bust up laughing before throwing up the ‘too sweet’ gesture. We see Chris Benoit and his wife Nancy walking backstage towards the ring. The Rabid Wolverine will be in action coming up next! Cole: This past Sunday we saw champion versus champion when Rob Van Dam defeated Diamond Dallas Page and merged the European Championship into the Intercontinental. Tazz: I’ll tell you one thing Cole. DDP is a better man than me, because if I was in his shoes, I don’t know if I’d have lost with as much grace as he did. Cole: A true class act and I’m sure he’ll be in the hunt for more gold in no time. CHRIS BENOIT W/NANCY BENOIT VS LANCE STORM A great technical match which sees both men exchange the momentum numerous times. Storm stays with Benoit move for move until Benoit surprises him with a quick short arm clothesline. Benoit keeps the advantage and with Storm on his back, Benoit goes to the top for the diving headbutt. Suddenly….. Christian runs down the aisle and jumps onto the apron and shoves Benoit off in full view of the referee. WINNER BY DISQUALIFICATION: CHRIS BENOIT Storm and Christian continue their double team of Benoit. Storm gathers a chair and they set up Benoit for an Unprettier onto the chair when… Rob Van Dam comes sprinting down to the ring. He slides in and quickly clears the heels before checking on Benoit. Christian and Storm are very unhappy that their plans have been disrupted. Cole: How despicable of Storm and Christian. Thank God RVD was there to help Benoit or who knows what might have happened. Tazz: Hey Cole, this is an international incident. Canadian honor is at stake. Cole: What do you know about Canadian honor? Tazz: I did spend a weekend at Niagara Falls and there was a cute waitress….. Backstage, Jonathan Coachman is standing by with Light Heavyweight Champion Shane McMahon. Coachman: “Shane, you asked for a moment to address your fans, so go right ahead.” McMahon: “Thanks Coach. I’m here because I represent the greatness of my title. I represent the greatness of myself. And so it is with great anticipation that I announce that next week I will hold an open challenge. Now you may wonder who could even want to fight me…..” With a WHOOOOSH, the Hurricane leaps into the picture. Hurricane: “Never fear! The Hurricane is here! Shane McMahon, your villainous ways have tainted Smackdown and that title for too long! Next week the Hurricane will end your reign of terror. I accept!” He jumps out of the scene with another WHOOOOOOSH as Coach and Shane just look at each other in disbelief. Triple H, the WWE Undisputed Champion is pacing in his locker room. “Rhyno, I know you’re not the brightest bulb in the box so I’m going to make this real clear and I’m going to speak real slow. You just made the biggest mistake of your life. You blindsided me at Judgment Day and congratulations for that But I’m still here. I’m still breathing, even through broken ribs. So you want a fight? Well, I’m not a hard man to find!” A replay of Triple H’s retort to Rhyno is shown. Cole: The champion may be hurt but he’s also looking for some payback. Tazz: You got it, Cole but he gotta be smart. If he gets hurt worse, he’s gonna be in a bad spot with someone like Rhyno breathing down your neck. SCOTTY 2 HOTTY VS GUIDO W/VITO AND JOHNNY STAMBOLI A quick and standard match which sees Guido control the match thanks to his own skill….and his goons outside who take cheap shots behind the referee’s back. Guido puts Scotty away with leg drop across the back of his head that Cole refers to as the Sicilian Slice. WINNER BY PINFALL: GUIDO As soon as the bell rings, Vito and Johnny jump into the ring and grab Scotty, holding him up on his knees as Guido paces around, finally walking up behind Scotty and blasting him in the back of the head with a right hand. Scotty drops like a rock and Tazz comments that where he comes from, that’s called getting whacked! A video package detailing the Big Red Machine, Kane is shown. It highlights some of his career moments and ends with a giant wall of flame. Mr. McMahon is pacing in his office, still in a bad mood from what happened in the cage. “So Raw is having a “homecoming” this Monday night? I don’t know who Ric Flair thinks he is but nobody overshadows Vince McMahon. And I’ll tell him that to his face…on Monday night!” Cole: Tazz, in four weeks we’ll be in Columbus Ohio for Bad Blood and there is plenty of that going around tonight. Tazz: You ain’t kidding. Between Triple H and Rhyno…Benoit and his countrymen….it’s gonna be a good one! RIKISHI VS KEVIN NASH Rikishi is not the pushover that Nash predicted and when Rikishi sends him over the top with a clothesline, Nash’s expression shows the fun and games are over and these two put on quite a fight. Nash attempts to go for a Jackknife but Rikishi backdrops him and then is about to sit down on his chest when he is distracted. Scott Hall runs down to the ring and pounds on the apron. Rikishi momentarily forgets about Nash and begins jawwing with Hall. This gives Nash the time he needs and when Rikishi turns around he catches a boot to the face. He falls into the ropes and when he rebounds, Nash hits the worst looking belly to belly suplex in history for the win. WINNER BY PINFALL: KEVIN NASH Hall and Nash begin stomping Rikishi and when the referee tries to stop them, Nash throws him across the ring. The double team continues until….. The Big Red Machine runs down to the ring as fire explodes on the stage. Hall and Nash quickly ditch to the outside when he climbs into the ring as they make their quick exit. We immediately cut to the backstage where Triple H and Rhyno are being separated by half the locker room and even then just barely. As the show begins to end, they tear loose and run at each other again before the show goes to black.
