Gorilla: Welcome to the weekly entravaganze known as Monday Night Raw! What a night we have planned for you tonight.
Jesse: You know something Monsoon! when I heard that the WWF was coming back. I made sure to let my name be out there to be the voice of the WWF.
Gorilla: Well in any case. We do respect Jesse but I have to tonight is going to be something special. We are live from the Manhatten Center and it's jackpacked!
{Here comes The System! Vince McMahon, Stunning Steve Austin, Rick Rude, Drew McIntyre and WWF World Champion Roman Reigns! They are getting a ton of heat from the crowd. They just let the heat hit them but they are all smiles. Vince is the first to take the microphone.}
VKM: Excuse me… could you please show me some respect… I am the one who brought the world's greatest sports entertainer of all time in The WWF World Heavyweight Champion Roman Reigns… I have created a system that has no flaws… it has no weakness… with the authority of myself and the board and the talent of Roman Regins, Rick Rude, Stunning Steve and Drew McIntyre the sky is the limit for the System and we will combat those virus’ that try and combat our ways. We are going to make you BOW DOWN!
{A Nice chorus of boos for The System! This sold out crowd is letting The System hear it!}
VKM: Now, as part of the System we have our hands on tag team gold but that is just the beginning… I have found some of the WWF talents to be potential members of the System with my guidance. I need men who can finish the job, not men who come up short.
{The fans are giving The System even more hear as these five men are just eating it all up.}
VKM: I don’t understand you people, last night the AJ Styles walked out with the World Title, and he refused to be considered The WWF Champion. He wanted to represent TNA. AJ Styles disrespected each and eveyr one of you and it was all to blame by Dusty Rhodes. He allowed this disobediance to be shown but it was something that I was not going to stand for. It's something that will NOT be tolerated in the WWF.
{American Dream blasts through the PA System as here comes Dusty Rhodes! He is wearing his cowboy hat and looks to be upset.}

Dusty: You know something Vinny Mac! I stood out here last night at Sacrifice....that's right I said Sacrifice.....Now, I stood in the back and I watched as you took the show I made and you basically threw it in the trash....why to form this System.....look Vinny....I understand the power you have but you see I have a lot of men in the back who aren't going to stand for this System that you have planned. You want us to bow down....well that just isn't going to happen.
Roman: Listen up old man! it doesn't matter what you say because we all know that you aren't man enough to come into this ring and say it to our face.
Dusty: Listen here pup, I beat up your daddy and I won't stop for one second about taking off my belt and giving you the whoopin' you deserve!
VKM: Hold up just a second Rhodes! You don't speak to the WWF Champion that way. Infact, you know better than I do that you are not allowed to lay a finger on any talent in the WWF. Because, the second that you lay as much of a finger on any talent. I will have no choice than to fire you.
{Here comes John Cena! The music blasts as Cena comes bursting through the curtain!}
Roman: Listen up old man! it doesn't matter what you say because we all know that you aren't man enough to come into this ring and say it to our face.

{Here comes John Cena! The music blasts as Cena comes bursting through the curtain!}
John Cena: Last night I went through hell with AJ Styles. He beat me fair and square but all he has to show for it is some busted up ribs and some bruises. Now, if you are wondering why I am out here. Well that should be simple. I am here for a fight! I don't care which member of The System it is but I want a match TONIGHT! Make it happen Dream!
Dusty: I think we got ourselves a Main Event! John Cena will face any member of the System tonight in the Main Event!
{The System is grouped up talking about who is going to take on the challenge of John Cena. Cena and Dusty are going through the curtain as Jesse/Gorilla are pushing this through the roof!}

{A hard hitting match here. The Midnight Express are looking to establish themselves as a top team in the WWF. They win this match in a very convincing match. The Midnight Express leave the ring with their victory. We head to the back with Finn Balor standing there.}
Finn Balor: Last night I showed the world that I don't need the demon to keep this championship. Last night I beat Roderick Strong and I put him away for good. So now the big question is what comes next for Finn Balor and the IC Championship.....well I guess we are just going to have to find out!

Gary Hart: Hulk Hogan.....the man....the myth....the legend.....I want you to listen very closely to what I am about to tell you Hogan.

I am going to destroy Hulkamania!
Hulk Hogan: SAVE IT! You want to know how many men have tried to come out here and say that they are going to kill my career. I have been tried and you know something brother nobody has succeded because Hulkamania is still here. It will NEVER DIE!

{That's.....LANCE ARCHER! He just pounced Hogan! Archer is beating the hell out of Hogan with mounted strikes! Archer is like a madman here. He is beating down The Hulkster as Gary Hart is barking the directions! Archer grabs Hogan up by his shirt and rips off the "Hulkamania" shirt! Archer takes the shirt and spits on it as he begins choking Hogan with his shirt. Archer is relentless on this attack. He grabs Hogan and IRON CLAW! The Claw is on in the middle of the ring!

They are gasping as their hero has been destroyed by this Monster! Archer finally grabs the weakened Hogan in the air! Gary Hart is screaming on the microphone!}

Main Event
Main Event John Cena with Sting vs Drew McIntyre with The System
{A really big time feel here tonight. Cena comes out first with Sting in his corner. This is when "No Chance in Hell" blasts and out comes Drew McIntyre down the ramp as Vince, Roman, Rude and Austin follows him down the ramp. Drew looks like a million bucks here as he goes right into the ring. Cena and Drew tie up but Drew easily disposes of Cena who is still reeling after his epic encounter with Styles just last night! Drew is doing the work in the early going he is using his size to his advantage. Cena though is a pro though and finds his second win halfway through this match and starts taking it to Drew that is when Cena drops Drew with The Protoplex! Cena is teasing the Five Knuckle Shuffle! He hits the ropes but Austin gets involved and drops the top rope and Cena goes flying over the top to the floor! Cena is selling this bump but that is when Sting turns the corner and goes to start arguing with The System! Roman, Rude, Austin and Vince are testing Sting and want him to fight but Sting though goes over and grabs a chair! Sting wants to fight! Cena is back to his feet as Drew is distracted with this going in and never sees it coming! AA from Cena! Drew is laid out 1.....2.....3!!! Cena wins! The fans are going crazy but as soon as Cena is announced he is jumped by The System! Sting tries to intervene with the chair but it's just too much! The System is putting the boots to Cena and Sting! Vince is barking orders as Roman drops Cena with a SPEAR! Sting is up to his feet but right into a Claymore Kick! The System are standing in the middle of the ring just looking unstoppable! What a debut episode of Raw but who can stop The System!}
