Hello again everyone and welcome back to the Office of Journalistic Excellence. I am your host Jason (Jason_of_RajahWWF on Yahoo Messenger) and this is YOUR rajah.com RAW report. Here we go...

In the general manager's office, Eric Bischoff uses red spray paint to scratch out the portrait of FORMER co-GM Stone Cold Steve Austin.

A video package from last night's Survivor Series recaps Austin's farewell to the fans.

Live in the ring, Eric Bischoff stands with his whole Survivor Series team. Austin's final two beer cans from last night are in the middle of the ring, Bischoff stomps them out and kicks them away. He then says he will grant a special favor to each member of his team for their service to him last night. IT'S ALL ABOUT THE GAME...here comes Triple H, Batista and Ric Flair. Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler welcome us aboard from the announce table as The Game and his cronies make their way to the ring. Randy Orton slides over and takes up with the rest of Evolution as Triple H congratulates Bischoff for taking back control of RAW. Hunter begins to say Bischoff owes him a favor as the crowd chants for Goldberg. Hunter says Orton and Batista were the reason Bishoff's team won, so Eric owes The Game a favor. Bischoff immediately grants Hunter a rematch with Goldberg any time he wants it. That's nice, says Triple H, but Goldberg doesn't follow the rules as evidenced by his rampage with a sledgehammer last night. Well, what DOES Hunter want, asks Bischoff? Hunter tells Bischoff off the mic and a smiling Eric immediately books Goldberg to face Triple H, Randy Orton and Batista tonight in a three-on-one Handicap Match.

Ross and Lawler thank us for ordering Survivor Series.

Rene Dupree & Rob Conway vs. Mark Jindrak & Garrison Cade
-All four guys brawl at the start until the rookies drive the heels from the ring. Cade gets on the mic and says everyone's sick of La Resistance's crap. They're dedicating this match to the U.S. Armed Forces. The heels retake the ring and it settles into Cade and Conway. Cade gets the advantage and tags Jindrak in. Conway manages to gain control and tags Dupree. Jindrak rebounds off the top rope on a whip and clotheslines Dupree. Cade charges in and referee Mike Chioda has to run him out as the heels double-team Jindrak. Conway gets a near fall when the ref turns around and tags Dupree back in. Dupree grabs a side headlock, but Jindrak turns it into a suplex and both guys are down. They both tag and Cade cleans up on both opponents. Big clothesline to Dupree. 1-2-Conway breaks it up. Jindrak disposes of Conway over the top and the rookies score their tandem finisher on Dupree for the 1-2-3 at 3:56. I guess that's one for the troops.

In the back, Tommy Dreamer and Maven congratulate Shawn Michaels on HBK's effort at last night's Survivor Series.

Commercial

Ross and Lawler do some pretty annoying whining over Stone Cold being gone before going to Shawn Michaels in the back. Shawn starts to give his thoughts on last night's match, but Eric Bischoff arrives with some security guards to cut him off. Michaels gets in Bischoff's faces about Eric's power grab. Bischoff says he's not the one who lost the match for Stone Cold last night, Shawn was. He tells Michaels to take a long look in the mirror about the reason Austin is no more and then has security escort Shawn out.

Ross and Lawler intro a package of stills from last night's Ambulance Match between Kane and Shane McMahon. Ross tells us Shane is still in the hospital in guarded condition and will likely be released this week. Meanwhile, Kane will appear on Smackdown this Thursday to eulogize his brother The Undertaker, who was buried alive last night by Mr. McMahon.

In the back, Test and Scott Steiner conspire about their tag team title match for later tonight. Steiner says this is the favor he asked of Eric Bischoff and if he and Test are to start over as a tag team, it should be as equals with no one as the other's property. Test agrees and says if Stacy Keibler does what she's supposed to do tonight, he and Steiner will walk out as tag team champions.

Elsewhere, Rob Van Dam heads for the ring to defend his Intercontinental title.

Chris Jericho's Highlight Reel
-Jericho congratulates himself on eliminating Stone Cold Steve Austin from WWE last night. He then introduces Lita as his guest and she comes on down. Jericho feels so bad for Lita as she was unable to capture the Women's Championship last night. Lita knows she lost last night, but she didn't come out here to be insulted by a jackass like Jericho. Wait, Lita has the wrong idea, Y2J doesn't want to see Lita down in the dumps, he wants to see her happy. If Jericho means Christian, she doesn't want to here it. Oh no, Jericho doesn't mean Christian, he means someone whose Smackdown contract has just expired. He means...OH YEAAAAAAAHHHHH, it's Matt Hardy Version 1.0! Lita and Matt embrace when he gets to the ring and Matt has a question. He takes Lita's hand and gets down on one knee. Lita, will you...music hits and WWE Women's Champion, Molly Holly appears on the stage. What does Molly have to do to get some respect around here? She beats Lita last night at Survivor Series and it's STILL all about Lita? Wait a minute Molly; Jericho would like to use this intensity to see some action. He's not the guy who makes matches around here, but what about Matt Hardy and Lita versus Molly and a male partner of her choosing. All right, says Molly, fine! Tonight, it'll be Matt and Lita against herself and her partner...Eric Bischoff!

Commercial

In the back, Eric Bischoff stops Molly Holly in the hallway. What is Molly, crazy? He's not going to approve her booking him in a match. But Mr. Bischoff, given your history with Lita, wouldn't you like to be the beginning of the end of her in the ring? Hmm, Bischoff likes the way Molly thinks; he'll be her partner. But, if Matt & Lita win, Lita will get a rematch with Molly next week. However, if Molly & Bischoff win, Eric will fire Lita and there'll be no Steve Austin to bring her back.

-D-Von and Test start with Test in control with stomps in the corner. D-Von with a flying reverse elbow and a near fall from referee Jack Doen. Tag to Steiner.

Bubba punches Steiner on the mat as Test makes Stacy take a seat on the outside. Steiner regains control in the ring and drops the elbow for two. Test chokes Bubba over the middle rope as Steiner detains the referee. Tag to Test. Clothesline in the corner by Test followed by a snapmare. Test with the reverse chinlock on the mat as Stacy openly cheers for Bubba to fight out. Bubba does and scores the Bubbabomb, but is too tired to make the cover and both men are down.

D-Von tosses Steiner out as Bubba Dusty punches Test. Bubba slams Test and the Dudleys score the tired Whazzzup as Stacy distracts the referee. Bubba orders D-Von to get the tables, but Steiner returns and floors them both. Steiner retrieves a tag belt from ringside and tries to use it, but the Dudleys disarm him and score a modified 3-D. Steiner rolls out as Test returns and calls for the wayward tag belt, but Stacy won't give it to him. 3-D to Test for the 1-2-3 at 6:49.
-HERE are YOUR Winners and STILL the World Tag Team Champions: The Dudley Boyz

Molly Holly & Eric Bischoff vs. Lita & Matt Hardy Version 1.0
-Bischoff has made this an Intergender Match and is out there in his suit. The girls start and Molly scores a quick near fall from referee Charles Robinson. Molly with a face rake on the mat and the ref counts toward a DQ. Lita counters a slam and turns it into an inverted DDT. Both girls are down. The referee gets to six before Molly tags Bischoff. Lita nails Bischoff in desperation and crawls toward her corner, but Matt drops off the apron! Uh...uh-oh. A teary-eyed Lita asks Matt what's going on as Bischoff takes the opportunity to throw her on the mat and matchbook pin her for three at 2:35.
-HERE are YOUR Winners: Eric Bischoff & Molly Holly

Bischoff gleefully fires Lita before he and Molly head up the ramp. Meanwhile, Matt takes the stick and says the question he had for Lita earlier is...why is she so selfish? When she had a broken neck, all she had to do was come and be with him on Smackdown, but no! She had to make this big comeback and keep everything about her. As of now, Matt and Lita are through! Matt throws the mic down and leaves Lita crying in the ring. Jeez...Lita's job AND her boyfriend are gone. Ouch.

Commercial

During the break, Lita made her way up the ramp in tears.

Val Venis w/Lance Storm and Some Ladies Under Thirty vs. Rico w/Miss Jackie
-I could love Miss Jackie more, but it wouldn't be easy. Lawler taunts Ross for being in "Stone Cold Shock." They start with some basics before Val scores a suplex. He goes for another, but Rico escapes and dropkicks Val in the back. Rico slugs Val in the gut in the corner and then feels his breasts before Val fires back. Rico puts Val back in the corner and kicks him in the back of the head. Kneelift by Rico for two from referee Chad Patton. Miss Jackie isn't crazy about the speed of the count as Rico elbows Val to the mat. Rico gyrates and drives the knee to Val's lower abdomen. 1-2-Val kicks out. Rico stalks Val Sgt. Slaughter style and locks in the Cobra Clutch. Val sinks to the mat and starts to fade. Ross and Lawler continue to bicker as Val fights up and elbows out. Right hands by Val, followed by a series of clotheslines. Shoulder block by Val, 1-2-Rico kicks out. Sleeper by Rico, but Val turns it into a tilt-a-whirl powerbomb for a near fall.

Val floors Rico and goes to the top, but Miss Jackie grabs his leg. Val kicks her to the floor as Rico goes up to try to for the superplex. Jackie gets up on the outside and backs right into Lance Storm's apparently large crotch (yep, THAT's his gimmick now, folks). Meanwhile, Val counters Rico back to the mat and scores the Money Shot for the 1-2-3 at 6:03.
-HERE is YOUR Winner: Val Venis

In the back, Lita takes her bags and her dog and heads for the door. She drops her keys and notices Christian standing over her when she stoops to pick them up. Lita's already lost her job and her boyfriend, has Christian come to rub it in? No, nothing like that...and Lita hasn't lost her job. What? Eric Bischoff just fired Lita. Yes, but Christian used his special favor to get Lita her job back, no big deal. Lita starts to cry for a different reason now and Christian takes her out of the arena to get something to eat.

Commercial

The Stone Cold good-bye from last night airs again.

Ross and Lawler intro the Randy Orton/Mark Cuban waste of time from last night. In their locker room, Evolution plan their strategy and Orton announces he's used his favor from Eric Bischoff to get an Intercontinental title shot against Rob Van Dam at Armageddon.

Elsewhere, Chris Jericho knows a place where he and Trish Stratus can go for dinner tonight, but she wants no part of the Jericho she's seen tonight. Why did Jericho conspire with Matt Hardy to set her friend Lita up that way and break her heart? Jericho had no idea that THAT was what Hardy was planning; he thought Matt was going to propose to Lita. Jericho knows that if he disrespects Lita, he's disrespecting Trish and he doesn't want that. What he wants is to get closer to Trish and he likes that way that feels. They kiss. A real kiss.
