Start of the show:
The show starts with a glorious set for RAW is JERICHO! Jericho tells the crowd that they will soon get to the bottom of the title situation but tonight he is the General Manager of RAW! He says that tonight will be the biggest party in the history of RAW and to start it off, everyone is going to get laid! Those Hawaiin things drop from the sky and all the people in the growd grab them! He says “hey give one to that guy, he hasn’t been laid in five years.” He says at his party, everyone gets laid! He then books a match for Trish vs. Lita and asks if the kids in the back are old enough to get laid. Jericho then says that there will be some music provided by his band, “Fozzy!” Fozzy jams out on the rampway a little bit for the fans.
We go to the Jeritron 5000 where we see the controversy from last week when Benoit had Edge tapping but he was also pinned at the same time! Jericho says we can clearly see that we do not know who the world champion is. Jericho says that the choice is not for him, but only for one man. He then introduces his guest for the Highlight Reel as Vincent Kennedy McMahon!
McMahon comes to the ring with the title belt around HIS shoulder!
Jericho asks him who is the champion. McMahon says after reviewing the footage, Chris Benoit’s shoulders were down for a count of three. He then also says that Edge tapped out, at EXACTLY the same time. He says they have themselves a tie. He says in a situation where two people cancer each other out, usually neither of them would be named the champion…
HHH’s music hits and he comkes to the ring dressed in a suit with some sunglasses on. HHH is all smiles as he thinks he is going to get the world title back. McMahon is smiling as well, what does this mean? McMahon tells HHH that he does not like being interrupted but he has only one word for HHH: Congrats! McMahon says congrats for his book coming out tomorrow! He then blows smoke up HHH’s ass about movies as well. HHH is getting impatient wondering when Vince McMahon will give him the title back. HHH goes to grab it and McMahon took it away from him! McMahon says “did I name you world champion??” He then goes on to say that he isn’t going to pick ANY champion. He says he is going to dump that all on Bischoff. He says he does know one thing though and that is the fact that the title is VACANT and thus HHH is NO longer a heavyweight champion.
When we come back from commercial break HHH is wrecking stuff backstage. Ric Flair is with him and Batista tells him to calm down. Batista says he expresses his anger in different ways. Batista tells HHH that incase he didn’t know it, it was HIM trying to save HHH’s ass last week and if it was not for HIM, there would be no controversy and Benoit would be the champion. Batista says YOU’RE WLECOME! HHH freaks out and throws a table.
Christian shows up in the office of Jericho who is getting drunk! Christian tells Jericho that he is not wearing this outfit he gave him. Christian pulls out a doofy looking mask and outfit! He says he is NOT wearing this! Jericho says “come on Christian, there are a lot of great captains.” He then talks about Captain Crunch and a bunch of other captains. Great stuff. Christian refuses to do it but Jericho says if he doesn’t then he will not get a rematch against Shelton Benjamin. Christian storms off. Benoit comes in and Jericho stops him from talking about the title. Benoit says that is all for Bischoff to handle. But Jericho says that tonight he is the man in charge and he’s got a match for Benoit to get some rvenge against Batista. He says that tonight it will be Batista and HHH versus Chris Benoit and… ME! Jericho and Benoit shake as they have themselves a match. You have to see Jericho’s office, it is hilarious.
Referee: Jack Doan
Eugene vs. Maven
The start:
Maven extends his hand to Eugene and Eugene shakes his hand cleanly. Eugene waves around and the two square up. Eugene and Maven waist lock back and forth until they exchange hammer locks. Eugene counters an arm ringer with a snapmare. They lock up again and Eugene pulls an overhead wristlock to Maven for a slam and two count. Eugene then goes into the body scissors and rolls Maven around the ring. Maven is complimenting Eugene a bit as the two stand up, Maven is being too nice. Maven jumps over Eugene at the ropes and then runs off the ropes. Maven falls face first and yells at Regal for tripping him. Regal did not do anything! Jack Doan buys it from Maven and he kicks Regal out.
Mid match notes:
Eugene rolls Maven up for two and then gives him a Northern lights suplex for another two count. Maven smiles and tells Eugene “two times, two counts, very close, good job!” Eugene smiles at Maven and Maven goes to shake again but Maven kicks him right in the back of the leg. Maven then goes buck wild on the leg of Eugene dropkicking him into the corner and then working his knee on the ropes.
The Finish:
Maven then starts to choke Eugene with his boot. Doan starts his five count but Maven does not let go, Doan calls for the belt and this one is over!
Winner by DQ: Eugene
The Aftermath:
William Regal comes back to check on the hurt Eugene and Maven books outside the ring. Maven grabs a title belt and runs in the ring where he proceeds to nail Regal in the back of the head with it!
When we come back, Chris Jericho is going to have his first ever Rock and Roll Limbo. He brings out the Raw Divas in tight mini skirts (photos below)! It’s all new chicks and then Stacy. Jericho says that last lading standing, or I mean bending, will win. Fozzy jams out as they keep the bar pretty low. They lower it really low and Chrisy and Maria make it. Melina is out, Lana is out, and someone else is out too. Stacy is too tall for the bar. They lower it a ton and Christy makes it but Maria does not!
Winner of Rock and Roll Limbo: Christy
Jericho then tells the girls to dance and he gets on the mic so sing that Don’t you wish you were me.” Song. Funny stuff.
They are in the middle of the song until everything in the arena goes to black! Jericho asks what the hell is going on and we get a picture of Muhammed’s manager. He says a bunch of stuff in Arabic and then Hassan speaks. He asks how it feels when people are having a good time and in an instant it all changes. He says that is what happened to the Arab people after 9-11. He says they can have their fun tonight because next week he will make his debut and the party.. is over.
Simon comes to the ring. He says he wants to promote his Simon system but Jericho said the only way he could is if he wrestles in his first match tonight! He goes to promote the product but The Hurricane comes out!
Referee: Chad Patton
The Hurricane vs. Simon Dean
The start:
The two lock up numerous times but The Hurricane gets him in about 5 pins for two count before saying “whassupwitdat.” Simon started the match in a amateur style but Hurricane gave him a mahistrol cradle. The Hurricane backs Simon into a corner but Simon clubs him with a right hand followed by a backbreaker. Simon then chokes Hurricane with his boot before unloading on him with right hands.

Winner: Simon Dean
Orton with the Coach:
Coach says that Randy must be please with the decision that Vince McMahon made. Randy cuts him off and says hell yeah he is happy because now he gets to compete and it was all thanks to his show and booking of matches. Randy then says that Coach looks sad and he thinks it’s because Chris Jericho gave party favors all day but Coach still can’t get laid! At this point Edge comes on the screen in the back and he is on his way to the ring.
Randy looks upset. Edge gets on the mic and says he was ready to come here to defend his title tonight. “You tapped out!” Edge says the holy grail of his industry is now vacant and that is a crime against him. He says he won the battle royal and in his first ever world title match, he WON. He says he did not tap out, he pinned Benoit 1,2,3 in the middle of this ring. He says he then held the belt, dropped to his knees, and he never felt anything so good in his life. He said it was ripped away from him, he was screwed AGAIN. He says he blames all of this on Randy Orton for not giving him the singles match. He says it isn’t Edge’s fault that Randy’s title reign was a complete failure. He calls Orton out and Orton hits the ring!
Orton gets on the mic and says “you wanna blame me for your problems?” He told Edge that he could have made it Benoit vs. HHH and Edge would have gotten nothing. Randy tells Edge he is nothing. He says that if Edge wants to blame someone, he should blame himself. Edge says he figured Orton would say something like that. Orton says that he has BEEN world champion and if there is a failure in this ring, it is EDGE!
Edge reminds Orton that he ended Orton’s 8 month IC title reign. He says when it comes to you and me, you are my bitch! Rights and lefts go flying as officials hit the ring! They are able to peel the two off of one another but they get at it AGAIN! Nice brawl here.
