OCTOBER 13, 2003 - Monday Night RAW


They've been announced on WWE.com, but tonight on RAW, the four five-man Survivor Series teams representing RAW will be introduced by RAW GM Eric Bischoff and Shane McMahon!

Our opening bout pits Val Venis, fresh off a victory last week over Rico against Boss Man, who's hoping to bounce back after losing in the tag team fourway. Val leads off with a chop, but is then backdropped and DDTed. Venis hits some elbows and shoulders, followed by a bulldog and a spear. Boss Man lands a powerslam, but Val ends up hitting the Money Shot for another victory.

Shane McMahon is in the ring, and it is his pleasure at this time to introduce one of the RAW Survivor Series teams. It's Team Extreme! "One Of A Kind" hits the speakers, and Rob Van Dam comes out, accompanied by Tommy Dreamer as well as Bubba Ray, D-Von, and Spike Dudley.

Team captain RVD is up next for action against Rene Dupree from La Resistance. RVD hits a couple of hard kicks, then a series of back suplexes. He misses a dropkick, though, and Dupree capitalizes with a back elbow and a piledriver. Dupree misses a clothesline, and hits a flying cross body. Big running knee to the face. Dupree kicks and headbutts, but RVD hits another kick of his own before landing the Five-Star Frogsplash for the big win.

Last week on RAW, Team Extreme member Spike Dudley was betrayed in a tag team match by Maven. Tonight, he calls on his big brothers for backup. It's all three Dudley Boyz against Maven, Christian, and Matt Hardy Version 1.0! Spike and Christian start the match, and Christian takes an early advantage. He tags in Maven, who piledrives his former partner, then tags in Hardy. Maven and Matt hit a double backdrop, then Matt hits a rolling kick. Spike manages to fight back and tag in D-Von. D-Von hits punches and a DDT. Bubba tags in and lands a chop and a back elbow. Matt fights out, and Christian comes back in. D-Von tags Spike. Spike misses a legdrop. He recovers quickly and sets up for a slam, but Christian hits him with a low blow while the ref's back is turned. One, two, three! The heels pick up a cheap win! Spike Dudley gets screwed again.

Christian and Hardy remain in the ring, where they're joined by RAW General Manager Eric Bischoff, who introduces The Peepulation, another Survivor Series team, consisting of Christian, Hardy, Scott Steiner, Test, and William Regal.

Steiner and Test are up next in a triangle tag match against odd couple Hurricane and Tommy Dreamer as well as William Regal again attempting to claim tag glory with a new partner, Batista. Batista and Steiner start the match, Steiner takes an early advantage with punches and a clothesline, then tags in Hurricane. Hurricane hits a swinging neckbreaker, but walks into a trip. Batista tags in Regal, and the pair hits a Hart Attack on Hurricane. Hurricane manages to drag himself over and tag in Dreamer. Dreamer hits some punches and a piledriver on Regal, who tags in Test. Tommy hits a running kneelift, but misses a clothesline, and Test levels him with a Big Boot for the victory.

Up next is the next chapter in the Goldberg/Kane saga. Unfortunately, the match sucked, so i'm going to gloss over the results and just say Kane hit the Tombstone for the win, but afterwards Goldberg hits a Jackhammer to even the score.

Eric Bischoff again enters the ring to announce the team that will face Team Extreme at Survivor Series - The Game Changers! Triple H leads his Evolution mates Randy Orton and Batista, as well as Kane and Chris Jericho to the ring, where they pose for a moment.

The captain stays in the ring to take on Booker T in singles action. H hits strikes, kicks, and a clothesline before Booker hits a shoulder tackle. Booker hits a bulldog for two. HHH responds with consecutive DDTs for two. Booker hits a headbutt, but misses a legdrop, and HHH capitalizes with a Pedigree for the win.

Shane McMahon is in the ring for the last time tonight to introduce the team that will take on the Peepulation at Survivor Series, The People's Team! The World Heavyweight Champion The Rock leads the way to the ring, accompanied by Shawn Michaels, Goldberg, Booker T, and Hurricane.

Our main event of the evening pits two members of The People's Team (Rock & Michaels) against two of the Game Changers (Chris Jericho & Randy Orton) in a tag-team match. It's a match-up of champions to start, as The Rock tangles with the Intercontinental Champion Orton. Orton hits a couple of slams to start, then tags in Jericho. The pair hits a clothesline in the corner, then Jericho hits a kick and a dropkick. Rock fights out of a headlock and hits a DDT. HBK tags in and hits a DDT of his own, then a spin kick. He misses a legdrop, and Orton tags back in. Big spear on his long-time rival, then a powerbomb for two. Orton hits some punches, but comes up wanting on a splash. HBK puts Orton on the turnbuckles, and takes him over with a super Frankensteiner. As Orton gets up, he walks into Sweet Chin Music! Michaels has pinned the IC Champion! After the match, Rock and Michaels head into the crowd to celebrate as we go off the air.
