WWE RAW Opener:
RAW opened up with a bang as Joey Styles, Jerry Lawler and the Coach welcomed us to the show from Milwaukee!
In the arena:
The music of Edge hit in the arena as he made his way down to the ring with Lita in tow. Joey Styles announces it will be a triple threat match at Backlash for the WWE Title between Edge, John Cena and Triple H as Edge grabs a mic. Edge looks to be in a good mood as he says that the Rated R Superstar is back where he belongs, because he s back in the title hunt. He said it will be a triple threat for the WWE Championship at Backlash, Triple H vs. John Cena vs. him! Edge says he has to be the odds on favourite. He says Triple H tapped out at WrestleMania, and last week on RAW, John Cena got Pedigreed and pinned. Edge says he was victorious at Mania, and had his arm raised last week on RAW, so the people better start to appreciate him! He says he was the most watched WWE Champion in the last five years, and at Backlash, he will become a two time WWE Champion, so when it comes to becoming WWE Champion, look no further because the champ is here!
The music of John Cena then hit as he made his way down to the ring as the WWE Champion! Cena got on the mic and said easy, and thank you very much for the introduction because now the champ is here! He said you can stay out here and rant and rave, but it is him who holds the WWE Championship. Cena is getting a mixed reaction again, and says Edge won t go empty handed because he has&he has what he has and that s his own fault (towards Lita). He said as far as being the most watched WWE Champion in five years, it s about time someone put it to him straight, he was WWE Champion for two weeks. The first week everyone tuned in to see who took the title from John Cena, and the second week they all tuned in again to see him kick Edge s ass! He said for the sound of it tonight, these people would like a repeat performance! Cena said he came out here to fight, and wants to go right now. Edge said to hold on, he cares about what everyone thinks. He said last week he thought he was forging a alliance with Triple H but he Pedigreed Cena and made him look like a chump, and when it comes to the issue of these people, it s real simple, he despises all of these morons, and in turn, they despise him back. Edge said Cena cares about what the people think about him, he goes out of his way to try and please them, and when he does that, unless they are under the age of seven, they can t stand you! He asked Cena how that makes him feel. Cena said there s a little unrest, but that s because the people know him too well, they look at him, what he fights for and stands for, and they remember what he was. He said there s a group of people out there who want to see a different side of him, a side that s black, ruthless, maniacal, pompous, crass and a little bit sexual. Been there, done that, and these people want him to look them in the eye and tell them they su&Cena stopped and said he if goes that route, he ll end up just like Edge, and quite frankly he thinks he s an asshole! Cena said don t get him wrong, he s glad everything isn t glorious in Chain Gang land, because then he d believe his own hype and get some kind of ego problem, and get a nickname for himself like the King of King s or something&
Behold the King, the King of King s! Triple H made his way down to the ring to a mixed reaction and got on the mic. Triple H said Cena doesn t want to be him? Don t worry; he doesn t think any one in the world would confuse Cena for him. The fans chanted you tapped out at Triple H and Triple H said he doesn t care. He said whether they like him or hate him, they all respect him, because he is a ten time World Champion, and he has beaten them all, and because he beat Cena last week right where he s standing. Triple H said he made a mistake taking Cena lightly and it will never happen again. Cena said don t move a muscle, we are in the midst of a perfect match, we have an asshole and a man who kisses ass! Cena said he should leave and let them make out for a while. Cena said he respects Triple H, and should learn from him. Lesson one; never make the same mistake twice. Last week he Pedigreed him in the middle of the ring, you want to try and make the same mistake right now? Cena took off his shirt and Edge said to hold on. He said those two think they are the only contenders, at WrestleMania he destroyed a hardcore maniac at his own game! Lita slipped pout during this and it was very visible. Photos are at the link below. He destroyed Mick Foley and you will never see his ass in a WWE ring again and that is because of him! He said he was the star of WrestleMania, and if you think otherwise then you are a complete joke! He said he d prove it tonight, but he s still recovering from his injuries, but at Backlash, whether it s Cena or Triple H, he will beat one of their asses and walk out of the ring as WWE Champion. Triple H asked if he was done now, and asked Edge if he was going to hang his hat on the fact that he beat Mick Foley? Triple H said he did that six years ago, and as far as Mick Foley not coming back around, he doubts it. He said Foley is like a turd that won t go away, no matter how many times you flush, he keeps coming back! Triple H said Edge looks angry and is about to get angrier. He said before he came out here, he got a phone call from the old man, Vince McMahon, and he informed him of the main event. Triple H said Edge thinks he can beat either one of them, but does he think he can beat them both at the same time? Triple H said tonight it will be Edge and he can bring the booby prize (Lita) and he will face Triple H and his partner, the one and only, John Cena. Edge looked pissed and said this is crap. He said this is only happening because he s the biggest threat to them. Edge and Lita stormed to the back. Triple H then offered Cena a handshake and Cena went to take it and then slapped Triple H right across the face!
Referee: Jack Doan
Rob Conway vs. Rob Van Dam
The music of Rob Conway is playing in the arena, and during the break he got in the path of Triple H was levelled with a right hand. Rob Van Dam s music then hit, and we are ready to go! Before we could start, Shelton Benjamin s music hit and he made his way down as the Intercontinental Champion.
The match:
Conway jumped RVD from behind and went to work on him with right hands as Benjamin joined the commentary team. Conway knocked RVD down and then RVD started to come back with a side kick and Conway bailed to the outside. RVD followed out and laid Conway on the barricade and then went to the apron and came off with the corkscrew leg drop. Benjamin challenges RVD to the Money in the Bank at Backlash as RVD hits a side kick from the top rope on Conway. RVD then nailed rolling thunder and then leaped up top and came off with the Five Star for the win.
Winner – Rob Van Dam
The Aftermath:
Steve Romero caught up with RVD after the match and he says that Shelton Benjamin has challenged RVD at Backlash for the Money in the Bank. RVD says he doesn t need a week to think about it, there s no way he s putting up the Money in the Bank title shot just because Shelton thinks he deserves a second chance. He said if Shelton wants the match, he can think about putting up the Intercontinental Title, and he ll give him a week to think about that, because when the time is right, you can call Mr. Money in the Bank, WWE Champion, and new Intercontinental Champion, Rob Van Dam!
Backstage:
Maria is backstage with Mickie James. She says Mickie won the title at WrestleMania, how does it feel?

She said out of all her WrestleMania s, this has been the greatest; she can t wait to go home to Toronto to celebrate. Maria said Mickie isn t from Toronto, and then Mickie got pissed.

Mickie said it will be Stratusfaction guaranteed.

He said he s looking for Shawn Michaels tag team partner, and he will find him right here. They went to give a donation, and Vince went to give his card but Shane said it was cash only. Vince asked what kind of outfit they are running here. Vince went to wash his hands in the holy water, and then slurped some up and acted like Triple H with the water. Shane looked shocked. They come up the alter and Vince yells god are you there, it s me, Mr. McMahon! Vince said God created the world, he created WWE. He said God created Adam and Eve, and he created Steve Austin and the Rock. He said he doesn t believe in a day off, and has a stronger work ethic than god. He said he cast down the devil into the depths of hell, but he cast down Ted Turner out of business. He has his commandments and Vince has his. Vince pulled out a sheet of paper and read off his commandments. He is the boss, and there is no other before him. Thou shalt not tell him to move on, or toss urine in his face. Thou shalt not tell him to suck it, or take his disciples face and shove it in his rectal cavity. He said Michaels broke all his commandments and now he will face the Backlash, and not even God can protect him. Vince tells Shane to recite a prayer. Shane said the lord as his Sheppard; he will fear no evil except for Mr. McMahon and his disciple. His toned body who produced the life giving semen that produced him. They then go to the altar and Vince says he will release the apocalypse on Michaels at Backlash. He said for god to strike him down, and nothing happens. McMahon goes on a rant and then some thunder is heard.
