Week 1: Show received a 3.42 Rating
The Inaugural Raw takes place in Hershey, PA.
Show starts: Vince McMahon in the middle of the squared circle: (proudly) Welcome to Monday Night Raw!!! I’ve been working on this show ever since I was born. Everything I have done led me and thereby you, to this moment in time. Week in and week out you will see hard-hitting action, rivalries like you never seen before, and of-course 5-star matches. Without further ado, give a warm welcome to your WWE champions!
Matt Hardy and Bray Wyatt’s theme music hits and walks down to the ring
McMahon: Welcome the WWE Tag Team Champions, Bray Wyatt and Matt Hardy!
The crowd cheered as the duo confidently makes their way to the ring. As soon as they got in the ring their music stopped and The British Bulldog’s music hit.
McMahon: And here is Mr. Intercontinental himself, Davey Boy Smith, also known as The British Bulldog!!!
The British Bulldog proudly steps down the ramp with the belt secured around his waist. He athletically jumps over the top rope to enter the ring and as his feet hit the mat, his music stopped and the Rock’s theme music hit.
McMahon: And it is my pleasure to personally introduce to everyone in the arena and those watching at home: the very first WWE heavyweight champion, The Rock!!!!
The Rock in a fancy suit, shades and the belt around his shoulder, walks down to the ring with his nose in the air. McMahon looks up the ramp in absolute glee. The Rock enters the Ring and the first thing he does is hug the owner of the company Mr. McMahon. McMahon gives the Rock the microphone and the Rock immediately starts thanking his boss.
The Rock: Thank you, Boss, for the opportunity to be the first ever WWE champion. I’m sure you won’t have to worry about changing the nameplate on this belt for a very long time (chuckles). The only thing else I really have to say is to the people luckily having the opportunity to watch their Heavyweight champion right now. And that is to not expect to see anyone else but me at the top of this company. I don’t care how much you hate me, you are below me and my standards. The Only reason I’m here is for my boss Vince, and to make sure the other wrestlers in the back know that they are hot garbage.
The Rock gives the mic to the British Bulldog and exists the ring to boos from the lively crowd.
The British Bulldog: Well, let me start out by saying The Rock is not indicative of the rest of the roster here at the WWE. I’ll show you later tonight that I’m here to give you kind people action-packed wrestling and that’s what I’m going to give you. (the crowd cheers). I will take on any and all competition. I guarantee there’s not a wrestler out there that can over power me. And that includes you Rocky.
Bulldog hands the mic to Matt Hardy and exists the ring. The crowd gives the Bulldog a loudly cheer. Matt hardy weirdly stars at the microphone, seemingly like he doesn’t know how to use it, like it’s some type of ancient technology. Bray Grabs the mic.
Bray Wyatt: I’m glad y’all could make the show. (said creepily) My partner and I and commend any tag team that is brave enough to climb in the darkness with us and venture into this great squared circle with us, the destroyers of worlds. However, I’m afraid they won’t be able to feel our sympathies.
Bray laughs and hands the mic to McMahon.
McMahon: “Let the Show Begin.”
Match 1: (W) Shawn Michaels ’97 (Heel) w/ Diesel Vs. Razor Ramon (Face) (Mid-card)

He even punched his opponent over the top rope right next to Vader’s feet. Bulldog jumps outside and continues the punishment outside of the ring. He turns around and starts talking **** to Vader.

He then Irish whips him into the barricade and belly flops him. The bulldog falls down in agony. Vader quickly rolls Bulldog back into the ring and leaves ringside, thinking he did his job for the night. Sin Cara realizes what has happened and quickly goes to the top turnbuckle to perform his Swanton bomb. He lands it and goes straight into the pin. 1…2…. And Kick out! Sin Cara can’t believe it. Sin Cara backs into the turnbuckle waiting to punch bulldog when the he rises to his feet. Sin Cara runs straight at his opponent hoping to get a quick powerful attack off, but the Bulldog grabs him and gives him his finishing move, the powerslam. Bulldog pins him for the victory.

He will deliver night in and night out. Before Tatanka could finish his sentence, Seth Rollins theme music hits and boos reigned down as Rollins walked down to the ring with a smirk on his face. He walks in the ring and grabs a mic. He tells the Crowd to shut up along with the Universe’s super star (said mockingly). He tells Tatanka to get out of the ring because he has a match coming up next, he even makes it a point to let everyone know it is the main event, Tatanka rails back and tells Rollins that he has no respect for the universe or anything for that matter. Seth Rollins just laughs and tells Tatanka if respect is what he was after then why not face me next week on Raw so I can show you why you don’t have my respect. Tatanka confidently and quickly accepts the challenge and goes on a long spiel about respect and how the WWE Universe is the reason why “we are all here.” Tatanka leaves the ring to loud cheers and Seth stands alone in the ring awaiting his opponent in the main event.

After a legit hard fought five minutes to the match, Stone Cold starts to gain control. With a quick blow to a standing Rollins’ stomach, Austin throws Rollins out of the ring.
