With WrestleMania just a few days away, everything is on the line on both sides as it is on the hands of Blood Shepherd and WWE Champion Drew McIntyre in the high stakes match with Triple H and the McMahons' jobs on the line and the fate of NXT, NXT UK and the WWE Performance Center. Tonight was the reveal of the special guest referee appointed by Triple H for Shepherd and McIntyre's match. The matches advertised for Raw is an 8 woman tag team match between Kingdom allies Naomi, Nikki Cross, Natalya and Ember Moon versus Corporate allies Ruby Riott, Sarah Logan, Tamina and Nia Jax; a six man tag team match as Alex teams with TJP and Randy to take on Thorne, Blake and Nese.

The first segment of the show was the eight woman tag team match. The Kingdom allies didn't waste any time to prepare themselves.

Ember: I'm tired of being overlooked; Kevin, thank you for standing up for us

Kevin: as I said, you girls deserve the TV time, not Shane

Cross: you damn right

Natalya: come on girls, let's teach them a lesson

As the four women left, Triple H walked up to Kevin.

Triple H: Kevin, you have a match at WrestleMania

Kevin: really?

Triple H: a career vs. career ladder match; hanging above the ring is a briefcase with your contracts inside

Kevin: who I'll be facing?

Triple H: Shane

KO smirked and nodded as he really wanted that match.

Triple H: the loser gets fired

Kevin: now that's a match where I can knock a McMahon senseless

The Game nodded. 

(With Chase and Charlotte)

Charlotte: you ready for this Sunday, honey?

Chase: hell yeah, it's Batista I'm facing

Charlotte: you sound so confident

Chase: I'm not afraid of any challenges; Lashley, Sullivan; they both went down

Charlotte: well I'm excited for my match as well

Chase: what?

Charlotte: confirmed by Hunter, the match the fans wanted; me, Becky, Bayley and Sasha for the Raw Women's title

Chase: oh my goodness, the Four Horsewomen fatal four way

Becky Lynch (c) vs. Sasha Banks vs. Bayley vs. Charlotte Flair - Fatal four way match for the Raw Women's Championship

Finn: okay girls

Seth: save it for WrestleMania

Then the Kingdom leader and her lover came out.

Roman: they're they are

Lexi: here he is

Alex: I'm back

Travis: dude, you have no idea how different it was without you

Josh: your mind games really got us

Alex: thank the Viper himself

Randy put his hand on Alex's shoulder and smirked. Then the group turned their attention for the eight woman tag team match.

(Natalya, Naomi, Cross and Moon vs. Riott, Logan, Tamina and Nia)

Cross went on the offense with her unpredictability along with rapid punches on Riott. The first few minutes of the match were in favor of the Kingdom allies after all four of them sent Nia over the top rope, forcing the Corporation to regroup.

The Corporation women huddled together for a plan before all four of them surrounded the ring. Then they got on the apron and all hell broke loose from there.

(End of match)

It was back and forth between the two teams. Cross was taken out with the Riott Kick from Ruby; Naomi took out Riott with the Rear View; Tamina took out Naomi with a superkick; Moon jumped from the turnbuckle for the Eclipse; Sarah took out Ember with a spear. Then the Queen of Harts took down Logan with a double leg takedown before locking in the Hart Family Sharpshooter, forcing Logan to tap out.

(Backstage)

The Kingdom were clapping for their friends.

Liv: those four are good!

Carmella: damn right

Then a minute later, the four women came in to the locker room where they were met by applause from the group.

Charlotte: way to go Nattie

Natalya: thanks girls; this will hope the Corporation will fall this Sunday

As the show went to commercial, another match was confirmed for WrestleMania, another 6 man tag team match.

(Dolph Ziggler, Robert Roode and Sami Zayn vs. Roman Reigns, Seth Rollins and ???)

Roman: well brotha, we're on the card

Seth: well we got our partner picked

The Lunatic Fringe put his arms around his brothers. 

Dean: the McMahons will be in for a big surprise this Sunday

Roman: the Shield reunites this Sunday

Seth: let's keep you as a surprise, Dean

Dean: good idea

The show went on for an hour and thirty minutes before presenting the final segment, which is the revelation of the special guest referee along with the contract signing for the WWE title match between Shepherd and McIntyre.

The Duke of the Balkans was ready as his lover Kairi was peppering him with kisses.

Kairi: I am curious as well on who the referee is

Dario: well whoever they are, they better call the match down the middle

Kairi: I hope they will play fair

Dario: yeah; it's time for me to go

Kairi: okay

The Pirate Princess gave him a passionate kiss before the Duke left.

(In the ring)

The contract signing was set up and the Scottish Psychopath and WWE Champion along with Lars and Vince were in the ring waiting for the arrival of the Duke of the Balkans. Then Shepherd's theme played and the Duke made his entrance.

As Shepherd got in the ring, Triple H was there on his side and to make sure that the contract signing won't end ugly.

Triple H: now we are all here to make this match official. Blood Shepherd, the winner of the men's Royal Rumble match chooses the WWE Champion for his title shot at WrestleMania

Vince: yeah yeah, Shepherd won the Rumble, so let's get this over with because I want to damn know who will be the special guest referee

Triple H: you were always an impatient old man, Vince

Shepherd and McIntyre signed the contract to make the match official. Then the two adversaries went on the mic.

Shepherd: this Sunday will be the end of you and your title reign, McIntyre and I'll make sure that your bosses won't torture any more Superstars

McIntyre: you talk tough Shepherd, but this title around my shoulder won't be going anywhere and I'll knock you out with a Claymore

The two rivals stared daggers before the Game separated them to avoid any chaos.

Triple H: alright alright, the contract is already signed, so we get down to the serious part, who will officiate the match?

Vince: about damn time, so who will officiate the match?

Triple H: well Vince, the referee is someone you had good history with. This guy loved to raise hell on you in the Attitude Era

The crowd were already pumped as the Game smirked.

The familiar glass break sound and out came the special guest referee, the original rebel of the WWF's Attitude Era, the Texas Rattlesnake Stone Cold Steve Austin. The Corporate group were irritated as Stone Cold went in the ring and did his signature entrance.

Stone Cold: well Vince, you should damn know that I will be officiating the match, so any of you or your Corporate dumbasses won't cause a problem

The crowd cheered.

Stone Cold: if you all want to see Vince McMahon fired at WrestleMania gimme a hell yeah!

Crowd: hell yeah!

Stone Cold: I said gimme a hell yeah!

Crowd: hell yeah!

Stone Cold: for all the years of opening cans of whoop ass on you; I have heard of Bliss Kingdom, and they are a group of hard working Superstars who bust their asses week in and week out, and you want to fire them

Vince was getting nervous.

Stone Cold: and I read this crap online called the Purge of NXT; you and your dumb ass family ended the careers of young and promising Superstars who are carving the path to the future

The Texas Rattlesnake spoke the hard truth.

Stone Cold: you abused your power long enough McMahon, and I'm giving you the power finger now here's to you!

He flipped the CEO off which provoked the Freak to step up. Then out of nowhere Shepherd caught Lars with a Giga Savate Strike. The Duke turned to see McIntyre and Vince running for cover. Then Stone Cold signed his name on the dotted line to make it official as he will referee the WWE title match.

The Texas Rattlesnake then asked for his signature Steveweisers and passed cans to Triple H and Shepherd as the show closes.
