The Knight Center in Miami, Florida is ALIVE! Fans are holding up signs and posters, cheering madly and chanting as the fireworks streak across the arena, wailing away at deafening levels. Jim Ross and Brian Pillman are down at the broadcast table.
JR: WELCOME... TO MONDAY NIGHT RAW!!!
Pillman: I'M your host... Brian F'N Pillman, and this is my lowly assistant, Jim Ross!
JR: Brian, now you KNOW....
Just then, the arena is filled up with the music of Jerry Lawler! The King makes his way down the aisle, pointing to a group of fans and laughing. Lawler makes his way towards the broadcast area, still mocking the fans.
Pillman: Alright! THE KING!
JR: Oh NO!
The King sits down at the table, as a "Burger King" chant rises up. Lawler looks obviously annoyed.
King: Ross, why aren't these morons showing any respect?! Did you start this??
JR: No, King! Maybe it's cause you don't DESERVE any!
King: SHUT UP!
Pillman: YEAH! Zip it, blowfish boy!
King: What's with this card tonight?? River Wyld ... Kyoto Ninja ... the BLIZZARD! Is this LOSER NIGHT here on Raw?! C'mon!
Pillman: Easy King... I think the Kyoto Ninja might be a WINNER tonight! He's facing Owen Hart!!
JR: The Kyoto Ninja is no push-over! He's an international superstar! But already we're going out of order here! Tonight, it's the TV title match! Stone Cold Steve Austin against Raven!
Pillman: Haha! See? MAIN EVENTERS! I don't see any of JIM CORNETTE'S men in the main event? His boys get shoved to OPENING BOUTS! HAHAA!!
King: Also tonight, I will have a special King's Court! With a BRAND NEW tag team here in the WWF! Stay tuned for THAT!
Pillman: I can't WAIT! Anything is better then watching the Dudes With Attitudes! Well, except for the Smoking Gunns.
JR: C'mon now, you two are off schedule here! We have a set way of doing things out here!
Pillman: Forget it Ross. Me and the King are running the show now. You're just here so we can bounce our jokes off of you!
Atlantra makes her way down to ringside. She takes a chair that is leaning against the Gaurdrail and sets it up and sits down in it.
JR: What's Atlantra doing here tonight? And why is she sitting at ringside! Well I don't know about you but I am going to try to find out!
JR gets up and goes over to Atlantra.
JR: Atlantra what are you doing here?
Atlantra looks up at JR and smiles at him for a minute.
Atlantra: Well here I am for all of them to bleed
But they can't take my heart from me
and they can't bring me to my knees.
She smiles at A confused JR
Atlantra: They'll never know the real me.
JR: ( confused ) What do you mean? hey will never know the real you? Who will never know?
Atlantra: (Smiling)Well Jr if you pay attention tonight I think you will find the answers to that. I plan on sitting here and enjoy show.
JR just shakes his head and rejoins Jerry Lawler and Pillman at the table.
JR: That was different. Let's get Raw started. Mr.Pefect is standing by with his comments. Let's go there now.
Pillman: Atlantra acting good is like... well.. a FISH out of WATER!
