(Raw)

The WWE Universe were watching from the sidelines as Bliss Kingdom and the Corporation's warring feud is going through Elimination Chamber which is in a week. Triple H was with the Kingdom in their locker room.

Triple H: Travis, can I talk to you for a minute, son?

Travis: sure Hunter

The Game and the Intercontinental Champion sat down for a private conversation.

Triple H: when I watched you won that Intercontinental Championship at Summerslam; I saw emotion from your eyes

Travis: yes, if you remember our great friend and brother Xander Kross, who retired due to a career threatening neck injury

Triple H: yes, I remember that; Travis you got some great skills, kid

Travis: thank you sir, but may I ask, who will be my next challenger for the title?

Triple H: that will be determined in a 15 man battle royal next week

Travis: okay, who's in it?

Triple H: five of your Bliss Kingdom brothers: Josh, Seth, Miz, Roman and Finn

Finn: I may come for you, lad

Josh: watch out my friend

Roman: the Big Dog is coming

Miz: time to break the record for most Intercontinental title wins

Seth: let's burn it down

Triple H: the other 10 will be random, but I know Vince picked five of his guys

Travis: okay whoever wins, we'll put on a five star worthy match

Triple H: you'll kick ass, Travis

Alex: you always have been a fighting champion, brotha

Triple H: oh I forgot, whoever wins the battle royal, he'll face you at Elimination Chamber

Travis: perfect

Triple H: but for now, let's make a dream match reality. Hey Braun

Braun: sir?

Triple H: you're up

Braun grinned and went out the locker room for his match against Corporation member Lars. Triple H went to check that the Corporation has recruited former NXT star Wesley Blake as an ally for the United States Champion Murphy.

Triple H: Alex, you got some bad news

Alex: what?

Triple H: come look at this

Lexi followed Alex to see what the Game has, and Alex wasn't surprised.

Alex: babe, your old group is back together

Lexi: wow, the McMahons got Blake now as their ally just to help Murphy keep that U.S. title

Triple H: it seems you had history with them, Lexi

Lexi: yup, I did; it was 5 years ago, long before I met my baby Alex, I was their manager and they were the NXT Tag Team Champions until I left and they disbanded

Triple H: I see; Alex, what are you gonna do?

Alex got an idea.

Alex: I'm gonna call an old friend

He went out of the locker room to call his friend.

(In the ring)

Braun and Lars were sizing each other up as the bell rang. The two pushed each other with shoulder tackles barely fazing each other. 

(End of match)

The Monster tried to lift the Freak up for the running powerslam, but Sullivan got out of it and rolled out of the ring to catch his breath. Braun went after him, but he was met with a steel chair from Lars resulting in a disqualification. The Freak landed chair shot as the two giants went back in the ring; as he was going for another one, Braun caught him by the neck and chokeslamed the Freak which shook the ring.

(Backstage)

Braun walked backstage to see Alex on his phone talking to someone.

Alex: I'll see you in an hour, brother

???: see you, man

As Alex put his phone away, he saw Braun.

Braun: who were you talking to, man?

Alex: an old friend; Braun after you left, Triple H told me that the Corporation has recruited Murphy's old friend Wesley Blake

Braun: ahh, Lexi's old group

Alex: exactly

Braun: and your friend is coming

Alex: yeah, he's not living too far from here, so we'll see him in an hour

Braun: okay

The two went back inside the locker room.

Triple H: Braun, don't worry you'll get a rematch against Lars at Elimination Chamber

Braun: that's all I need

Kevin: looks like I'm next, time to shut Sami up

Chase: please, he's very annoying

Ryan: you're doing us a favor, Kev

Kevin: don't worry guys, I'll shut him for good and this will be a message to Shane McMahon

The Prizefighter left for his match.

(Kevin vs. Sami)

The rivalry that started all the way back to Ring of Honor continues as the two former NXT champions, two former members of the Wolf-Pack looks to write the latest chapter of their rivalry. As the bell rang, the two went at it with quick punches.

The rebellious Kingdom member and the over arrogant Corporate ally trade punches until Kevin broke it with a knee to the gut.

(End of match)

The Prizefighter was stumbling to the corner and the Underdog from the Underground looked to end it with a Helluva Kick. As Zayn launched, Owens caught him with a Stunner and then pinned his former best friend for the win.

The next match was a dream match set up by the Game himself as Universal Champion Chase goes against Bliss Kingdom ally, the One and Only Ricochet.

Chase: alright, time to give the WWE Universe a treat

Ricochet: let's tear the house down, bro

Charlotte: this will be awesome

Chase: you know it, baby

The two fist bumped and left the locker room.

(Chase vs. Ricochet)

A dream match became reality as Chase and Ricochet squared off. The two men shook hands and locked up. There was a unique counter sequence between the two which the crowd love as they clapped.

(End of match)

Chase set up Ricochet for the Limit Breaker, but the dream match was put to an abrupt stop as the Corporation's allies Samoa Joe and Daniel Bryan ambushed Chase and Ricochet. The One and Only and the Universal Champion managed to fight off the two Corporate allies by sending them out of the ring. Ricochet finished them off with a suicide flip onto the two Corporate allies.

(Backstage)

Chase: wasn't the dream match we expected

Ricochet: don't worry man, we'll have an awesome match next time

The two men went inside the locker room

The main event was a huge 10 man tag team match between the Kingdom's Blood Shepherd, British Strong Style and William as they take on the Corporate team led by WWE Champion Drew McIntyre and his team of the Revival, Corbin and Lashley.

Dario: this will be chaotic

William: it will be

Pete: I can't wait to punch any Corporate members in the mouth

Tyler: they have never seen a big strong boi

Trent: well then, shall we gentlemen?

Kairi: if you win or get hurt babe, I'm gonna be your nurse

The Pirate Princess winked which made Dario sweat a bit.

Dario: let's go, bois

(In the ring)

Shepherd and McIntyre stared daggers as their respective squad lined up. The two men starting off was the Kingdom's Bruiserweight Pete Dunne and the Corporation's Corbin.

(Minutes later)

Tyler fought with the Revival's Dawson until Dash came in, but Tyler showed how a big strong boi he is by carrying Dash on his shoulder while setting Dawson for Cesaro's giant swing.

The inaugural WWE United Kingdom Champion displayed another feat of strength by dead lifting Lashley into a German suplex. He tagged in his mentor Trent Seven and Moustache Mountain performed their signature which was a combo of Bate's rebound lariat followed by Seven's back suplex on Dash.

(End of match)

Corbin was laid out by an East Meets West from William, but the Fil-Brit Brawler was in the dropzone for McIntyre's Claymore; Lashley was taken out after a double team from Moustache Mountain and Dunne was laid out from the Revival's Shatter Machine. The legal man for the Corporation was the WWE Champion, but out of nowhere was a Giga Savate Strike from the Duke of the Balkans; Shepherd pinned the WWE Champion, gaining the win for his team and momentum for Elimination Chamber.

Dario, William and B.S.S. went in the locker room where the Duke was greeted by a tight hug from Kairi.

Kairi: you won, babe

Dario: not just me, we won

Kairi: oh, you're getting a reward from me later

Dario: I'm excited

The 10 man tag match was the last match for the evening, but the U.S. Champion had an idea in mind and McMahons granted it. Murphy and Blake went out to the ring.

Trent: Alex, it seems you're needed in the ring

Alex: what the hell does Blake and Murphy want?

Lexi: whatever it is, it's not gonna be pretty, so be careful babe

Alex: don't worry Lexi, my friend texted me and he's already here

Triple H: whoever he is, he'll be a big help

Alex: yeah, I gonna go

The Pharaoh went out to confront his arch rival and the Best Kept Secret's old tag partner.

(In the ring)

Murphy: we're out here to propose a challenge, so Auditore bring your ass out here now!

Alex happily obliged and came out to confront Blake and Murphy.

Alex: well, there's one more guy that I'm gonna punt, and that's your friend Blake

Murphy: whoa there Alex, we're not out here to fight, we're here for a challenge for next week

Alex: what challenge?

Murphy: a tag match against the two of us

Alex: fine, I'll just get my mentor Randy Orton

Murphy: hold on there Alex, you can't choose your mentor

Alex: and why not?

Murphy: I talked to the McMahons earlier and requested this challenge with a catch; you can't choose any of your Kingdom friends or allies, so next week this will have to be a handicap match

Alex: Murphy, that's where you're wrong because I have a partner, and just like Blake, my partner is an old friend as well.

He smirked and dropped the mic as an all too familiar theme played.

Making his surprise return, the inaugural Cruiserweight Champion and winner of the Cruiserweight Classic was Alex's old friend TJP. The Fil-Am Flash made his way to the ring and stood beside Alex.

The two Filipino Superstars looked at each other and embraced. Then what caught everyone in the arena off guard was TJP raising his hand up in the too sweet gesture, signifying his allegiance with Bliss Kingdom. Alex smiled and connected before the two brawled with the former NXT Tag Team Champions. Alex sent Murphy over the top rope before he and TJP double superkicked Blake; the Fil-Am Flash then carried Blake on his shoulders to hit the Detonation Kick sending Blake rolling out of the ring. The match was set for next week along with the 15 man battle royal to determine Travis' next challenger for the Intercontinental Championship.

(Backstage)

Triple H welcomed TJP back to the company and at the same time as a new member of Bliss Kingdom after Lexi welcomed the Fil-Am Flash to their cause.

TJP: so all of you want the McMahons gone?

Alex: that's correct, man

Miz: we're done with them abusing their power

Seth: time for a change

TJP: well now I'm back, I'll do everything I can do to help

Lexi: we welcome you to our group, TJ!

Bayley: yay!

Finn: great to have you back, mate

With that, Bliss Kingdom was now a step ahead of the Corporation. As Elimination Chamber is in one week, the war is just continuing.

As for Dario, he is going to receive a reward worthy of a treasure chest full of pirate's gold from his girlfriend Kairi.
