Raw is War

With a crushed trachea putting Triple H out of action, the fight was on during RAW for the right to face Shawn Michaels for the World Heavyweight Championship!

RAW General Manager Eric Bischoff planned to make the winner of a Triple Threat Match the No. 1 Contender and give that Superstar a title shot on next week's show. But the plan went awry as Scott Steiner rushed in and used his massive frame to beat up Chris Jericho. Steiner had crossed paths with Y2J's massive ego earlier in the evening, and he made sure to get the last word. His interference allowed RVD to hit the Five-Star Frog Splash on Y2J and get the pinfall! Next week on RAW, Rob Van Dam will get the chance to become the World Heavyweight Champion when he goes one-on-one with Shawn Michaels!

The Dudley Boyz picked up right where they left off last Sunday night at Survivor Series. Bubba Ray and D-Von teamed up to hit the 3D on Rico and picked up the win along with brother Spike over 3-Minute Warning.

Even though Test was busy on a promotional tour in India, Stacy Keibler continued to talk him up to his Testicles. Stacy went to the ring and shot several of Test's new T-shirts out into the crowd with a cannon. Steven Richards interrupted her and threatened to teach her a lesson, knowing full well that Test wasn't there to protect her. But Stacy stood up for herself and fired a T-shirt at blistering speed right into Steven's groin! As the Diva laughed at Steven's anguished cries, Victoria assaulted her viciously. The new Women's Champion even bit one of Stacy's fingernails off!

Later on in the night, Stacy and Victoria clashed in Victoria's first title defense. The champ upheld her title in convincing fashion, but she was blindsided by Trish Stratus! This time, Steven Richards bailed out Victoria by planting Trish soundly into the mat.

In other action, the student became the teacher as Christopher Nowinski outsmarted Al Snow and picked up a win. Nowinski moved at the last second and caused the Tough Enough trainer to Moonsault through two steel chairs!
