WWF King of the Ring Build Up
Introduction
-As Raw opens Karl Dutton is on the screen behind his desk, hands cupped on the table and facing the camera.
“Ladies and Gentleman after the events of last night’s Pay Per View I am regretful to inform you that no one knows the whereabouts of the Undertaker. We hope he is well and can return to action soon. However we must move on because at the end of next month is one of our biggest shows of the year: King Of The Ring. And this year we will up the ante. You see once upon a time winning the King of the Ring Tournament meant you would get yourself a World title match at the second biggest show of the year: Summerslam. I am bringing that back and making it official. Also it is my belief that winning as many matches in one night as you need to even to get to second place is worthy of reward. Therefore at King of Ring the runner up will receive a WWF Intercontinental Championship shot, however the IC champ will be allowed to enter but should he win second place he will receive a chance to choose his opponent at Summerslam, and the winner a WWF Championship match. Both will happen at the grand stage of the summer that is Summerslam. The first round matches will take place over the next several weeks right here on Raw. Gear up gentleman and good luck.”
King of the Ring 1st Round Matches
-Jushin Liger VS KENTA.
The first match up of the tournament was hard and heavy with many technical holds and reversals. As the final moments came to a close Liger went for his front wheel kick but KENTA is able to duck out of the way, grabbing Liger in and going for a Spinning Toe Hold, but Liger grabs him and hooks him for 1…2…NO! Both men stand again and KENTA comes in quickly grabbing Liger and placing him in the GTS however Liger is able to duck down behind, turn him, grab him and drive him down with the brain buster for 1…2..3!

-As the weeks progressed since Edge’s win at Judgment Day Jericho would continue to come out and watch Edge during his matches. Most notably doing so during his match with Miz almost costing it him due to distraction.
-Finally during a match Jericho’s match on Raw Edge would come out and after Chris had gotten the win came into the ring as Y2J looked wearingly at him. Edge got himself a microphone.
“See! See! You see how it feels Chris to have someone come out and watch your every move as your wrestle! I am fed up of trying to stop you in corridor and you giving me no answers, fed up you not taking or answering my calls! I want answers Chris! Why are you coming out during my matches! If you want a fight I will give you one!” Edge rants in Jericho’s face.
“Oh no you have me all wrong Edge, I don’t want to fight you. In fact I have been watching you because I think we could do great things together you and I” Chris responds.
Edge tilts his head in curiosity and then straightens shouting “why the hell would I want to do that Jericho?”
“Because we are of the same mold Edge, we are both proud Canadian superstars, we both have reached the top but that doesn’t mean we stop working hard, in fact we work harder don’t we? We continue to fight to get back to or stay at the top. You see Edge, or Adam if you prefer…”
“You don’t get to call me that!”
“Ok Edge. All around us we see people pairing off into their little clique, forming gangs to protect themselves. Seems to me that anyone that isn’t doing that right now is pretty screwed if they want something the gangs have. This business is most of all about single achievement buy you and know that it’s nice to have someone watching your back, even if they stab you in it eventually. The WWF locker room has become a very clique orientated place and it gets kind of unsafe and frankly lonely without friends. And I don’t choose my friends lightly, Edge I need you.”
Edge simply stares back with mixed feelings upon his face.
“I’ll give you a week to think about it Edge but just to let you know: The third and final member will fall into place next week and that my help your decision.”
-The following week on Raw coming from Toronto, Canada. Jericho would come to the ring and invite Edge out, Edge did so and both stood in the ring as Jericho speaks.
“I haven’t spoken to you Edge and I don’t know if you have an answer but if it helps you decision I will bring out the third and final member right now” you can hear the crowd shouting Christian’s name as Jericho stops and smiles “Trish Stratus!”
The crowed do cheer their beloved hometown girl but despite their happiness at seeing her you cannot help but hear the disappointment in there.
“Wow, I mean I like it but that was not who I was expecting” JR comments as Trish enters the ring.
Trish hugs Edge who has a “what are you doing?” look on his face and then does the same to Jericho before taking the microphone.
“Chris, you know I heard what you said last week and you are right. If you have to a group to watch your back its good that it can be your fellow Canadian brothers! Yeah!”
Chris stops as she taunts to the crowd, frowning and picking his brain before walking forward and taking the mic from her.
“Yeah Trish thanks. Um….everything seems right but it seems like I forgot something. Oh well I guess…”
He is cut off as Kurt Angle’s music hits and fresh off his loss to Pope he is looking pissed as he grabs a microphone.
“How dare you! How dare all of you…Canadians” loud boos “get together in some sort of aint Canada great club. I tell you if I was to build an army…”
He is cut off as a jumper hooded man rolls into the ring with he watched with confusion for a moment until the man in the hoody grabs him and nails him with the Killswitch! The crowd erupt as he does this and the thunderous roar gets louder as he unzips the hood and throws it off, holding his arms out to all.
“Oh yeah!” Jericho smiles “that’s what I forgot! Edge meet our fourth member!”
Christian goes around shaking hands and bro hugging Jericho, hugging Trish and then slowly turning walking over to his conflicted brother.
Edge stand there for a moment, a frown on his face as all look on, the crowd shouting for him to do it. He face then melts into a smiles and he embraces Christian with a huge as the crowd roar in approval.
Jericho smiles at this and then holds out his hands which Edge promptly shakes. He then turns and brings the microphone to his mouth again.
“Whoever you are, whatever you call yourselves. Watch out because we Canadian, we are great, we are united. We are the Canadian Clique!”
The five pose to cheers as we cut to break.
Main Event/Monsters Collide
-We come back from break on the first weeks Raw as the Companies music hits. The crowds boos are thunderous as Danielson, MVP and The Miz stand side by side on the aisle and hold their gold up high for all to see, Joe standing behind then in his security guard getup and Sherri and Cornette besides the three clapping with broad smiles. The three then swing their belts onto their shoulders and side by side walk to the ring with the others in tow. Finally they enter the ring, the Miz walking forward the hard camera ropes, trashing talking the fans and holding up his belt, MVP breathing on and shinning his belt mockingly and Danielson standing straight and proud as the WWF World Champion. Cornette then gets a microphone.
“Ladies and Gentleman we told you it would happen and when the company delivers on their promises. Our employees are now the holders of the three most sort after and important singles championships in the world of pro wrestling. We came to the door our sports entertainment, but we did not knock, we kicked the door down, took its belts and renamed them back to the sport of pro wrestling! That is what you are seeing with these three men, the birth of pro wrestling once again. You are looking at the three greatest professional wrestlers today and when I say that I do not lie. These three men could defeat anyone any day of the week, twice on Sunday and they would still have energy to show your women the time of their lives, if they are good enough. We have the Miz the greatest rising young athlete in the X Division, we have MVP the heart and soul of this company and the man who has proven himself many times even main eventing Wrestlemania and is now bringing glory once again to the once great Intercontinental Championship and then we have The American Dragon, the greatest wrestler in the world” he stands next to his boy “the World Wrestling Federation Champion Bryan Danielson!”Loud boos “who last night was able to do the impossible by beating the Undertaker, and beating him so bad he could bury him in a casket and send him back to the shadows of which he came. This man, this great champion took on the grim reaper and won. Now show some respect for the greatest wrestler in the world!” The boos are continuing to grow in noise and consistency.
Suddenly though boos turn into surprised roars of approval and HBK Shawn Michael’s music hits. The company watches wearingly in confusion as Michael’s enters the ring and gets himself a microphone.
“I’m sorry to interrupt” HBK starts “but I had to come on and…give me take. You see Mr. Champion Bryan Danielson you are out here calling yourself the greatest wrestler in the world and I have a hard time getting my head around that. You see guys and girls if you go back not ten years you will find a young man of this same name that was trying to become a professional wrestler. Now he may have had many tutors along the way but one of the first was yours truly the Heart Break Kid!” He gets in Danielson’s face as the crowd erupt “so if you’re the greatest wrestler in the world my boy, what oh what does that make me?”
Cornette goes to speak but Danielson stops him and takes the microphone himself, raising it to his mouth inches away now from Michael’s, the rest of the company in a ready stance.
“A has been Shawn” thunderous boos reign back “there comes a day when the student surpasses the teacher, no matter how great that teacher is. And you know what, it just means I am that much better in having done so.”
The crowd reacts with “ohs!” As Shawn smirks slightly and turns his head away for a moment. He then backs off, looking perfect stance to go for the super kick. The Company sees this and begin to come in, everything is ready to erupt when….the lights out. They turn into a white spotlight that goes across the ring to Gabriel. The lights come back on as the crowd pop for monster and at once he pounces on the attacking nailing anything in a suit that moves. Sherri and Cornette back off as their group tries to fight Gabriel off but he keeps firing back, sending them out of the corner. As Danielson flies back he turns around and is nailed with sweet chin music to huge cheers. Michaels simply stands their looking down as he former student out on the mat. Meanwhile on other side of the ring Gabriel nails MVP and Miz with a double closeline and turns his head towards Joe who had yet to enter the fight. The crowd begin to buzz as Gabriel snarls and Joe lifts up his hand removing his shades slowly and placing them in his top suit pocket. Before anyone can blink the two mammoths launch forward trading blows back and forth that rumble the ring. The referees and security finally arrive on mass pulling them apart. As Joe is backing up the ramp we can see he expense suit torn and his now usual calm demeanor is gone, replaced by his old rage. Back in the ring HBK slowly looks up from Danielson to Gabriel who stares back across the ring. Shawn then slowly nods and leaves, Gabriel watching on with a raised eyebrow.
-Later in the night Joe is throwing furniture and shouting loudly as the camera crew and Gene Okerlund approach the Companies suite dressing room. Finally as they enter, security there trying to calm him he gets in the face of Cornette and Sherri.
“I want that son of a bitch in the ring!” He yells.
“We don’t know why he attacked us. We need you to protect…” Sherri starts.
“To hell with that! I get him or I leave!”
“Alright!” Cornette holds up his hands and yells back “let me go talk to Dutton.”
Joe watches him go with a frown.
-The next week it is revealed that at the King of the Ring the monsters will collide as Samoa Joe takeron Gabriel.
-Also that week Gene Okerlund is able to catch up to HBK as he is walking towards the ring.
“Shawn! Shawn! What was that about last week? Do you mean to challenge Danielson?”
“Mean Gene you will just have to see with everyone else” with that he walks off screen as Okerlund looks on.
-When we return from break Shawn’s music hits and HBK comes out to the ring to huge ovation.
“Alright Bryan, American Dragon, whatever you prefer to be called: Here is the deal. Yes I want a shot but Bryan it’s not only so I can take back the greatest prize in our business, it’s also because you sir need to have a little lesson in respect. You had no respect for the Undertaker and you have no respect for me. That I cannot abide little man. You are young punk who has found himself a rich backer and bad crowd allowing him to cheat to the top, hell I get it, I’ve been there myself but I learned that no good can come of it. You may think you are getting everything you want; The champions, the friends, the women, the…other stuff. But all it is doing is eating away at everything you were brought up to believe in, everything you got into this business to become. Bryan I am going to beat you because it’s the only way to save you from the dark hole that I nearly threw my own life into. What do you say?”
Danielson’s music hits and he and Cornette walk out onto the entrance stage. “Michaels!” Cornette yells “I don’t know what your game is but whatever it is, it isn’t working! Bryan Danielson is the World Wrestling Federation Champion, he is the greatest in the world today! You are just yesterday’s news. We have no reason to give you a title shot!”
“Yes you do” HBK replies “and I talking to you Bryan, not the man who is controlling your life. Bryan you call yourself the greatest in the world, but if you beat me then hell you may be and you will have proven it. Fair and square.”
“We don’t…” Cornette starts to yell but Danielson cuts him off and takes the microphone from the confused man.
“Shawn…” Danielson begins “you’re on!”
The crowd reacts loudly as the crowd reacts loudly and Cornette is going nuts next to him.
“But Shawn” he continues “when I beat you at the aptly named King of the Ring I will prove you are a has been, I will prove I have surpassed you and I will prove I am the greatest. People call my title reign a cheat, a fluke, well as King of the Ring I will prove that Shawn Michael’s is the fluke!” With that the crowd boos as he walks off stage.
-The Main event for the WWF Champion is HBK Shawn Michaels VS his former pupil and WWF Champion Bryan Danielson.

Bryan I am going to beat you because it’s the only way to save you from the dark hole that I nearly threw my own life into. What do you say?”
Danielson’s music hits and he and Cornette walk out onto the entrance stage. “Michaels!” Cornette yells “I don’t know what your game is but whatever it is, it isn’t working! Bryan Danielson is the World Wrestling Federation Champion, he is the greatest in the world today! You are just yesterday’s news. We have no reason to give you a title shot!”
“Yes you do” HBK replies “and I talking to you Bryan, not the man who is controlling your life. Bryan you call yourself the greatest in the world, but if you beat me then hell you may be and you will have proven it. Fair and square.”
“We don’t…” Cornette starts to yell but Danielson cuts him off and takes the microphone from the confused man.
“Shawn…” Danielson begins “you’re on!”
The crowd reacts loudly as the crowd reacts loudly and Cornette is going nuts next to him.
“But Shawn” he continues “when I beat you at the aptly named King of the Ring I will prove you are a has been, I will prove I have surpassed you and I will prove I am the greatest. People call my title reign a cheat, a fluke, well as King of the Ring I will prove that Shawn Michael’s is the fluke!” With that the crowd boos as he walks off stage.
-The Main event for the WWF Champion is HBK Shawn Michaels VS his former pupil and WWF Champion Bryan Danielson.
