Okay so on to mine. Trips is booked against Sheamus tomorrow night in a Street Fight. Before the match, The Game cuts another promo on how Sheamus is the future of WWE and he needs to step it up because it's going to be more brutal than their match at Wrestlemania. The match is largely even, with both men throwing everything and the kitchen sink at each other. Hunter is looking to be injured after Sheamus puts him back first into the ringpost several times, but manages to fend him off long enough to dig around under the ring. Out comes the sledge. HHH lays waste to Sheamus, rolls him into the ring, sledge to the sternum to double him over, and hits the Pedigree. This puts Sheamus down, but just barely long enough for the 3 count. As Sheamus gets up, severely pissed, the crowd can tell that Hunter's back and ribcage are hurting more than he lets on, and the Celtic Warrior uses that to his advantage until officials come out to pull him off. HHH is stretchered out of the arena.

Raw starts off with a video package and the announcers stating Triple H has been severely injured, busted ribs, internal bleeding, all that shit. Trips can take time off to film the next WWE films clunker or learn to book or something.

For the next few months or so Sheamus is booked to look unstoppable. (For the sake of this post he stays on Raw.)

So lets say around Survivor Series or whatever is replacing it this year, Sheamus is the champion. He's destroyed everyone that's faced him since Extreme Rules, and he's cutting a promo on Raw about how nobody deserves a shot at his title when out of nowhere comes.... Batista. This quickly gets physical, and guest host #863 books them for the PPV. Over the coming weeks things escalate until #867 makes the match a Street Fight.

During the match things are looking bad for Batista he's a bloody mess, having been battered in much the same way as Hunter was taken out, when out of nowhere The Game slides into the ring. One hit with the sledge, and Sheamus is down. Hunter drags Batista over the champion and silently leaves the ring as the ref counts the pin.

Weeks go by. Sheamus is calling Hunter out every Monday night on Raw, but he never shows. Sheamus is visibly nervous every time he wrestles. He's always looking over his shoulder, wondering when the next hit is going to come. Every once in a while, during a PPV or a big match, Sheamus catches "GAME OVER" on the tron. It's only ever there long enough to throw him off his game, and make him think he's paranoid. This is enough to keep him from winning the title back, but eventually it gets to the point that it doesn't bother him anymore. He gets comfortable thinking he's retired the King of Kings, and it's just Hunter trying to get to him.

Rumble time rolls around. Nobody's seen Trips since the run in to cost Sheamus the title. It's down to Sheamus and Morrison in the ring when once again "GAME OVER" flashes on the tron. By this point it doesn't even bother the Celtic Warrior anymore, but it's enough for Morrison to shove him over the top rope onto the apron. Sheamus is pretty well stopping Morrison's every attempt to knock him off the apron, but doesn't notice Hunter jump the barricade behind him. Trips pulls him off the apron (*Morrison wins, beginning his ascent into the main event.) Stiff kick to the midsection and a Pedigree, and Hunter once again just walks off silently.

The next night on Raw Sheamus is livid. He's interrupted several of the matches, each time demanding that HHH come out and face him like a man. Finally whoever's running Raw on this particular night comes out and confronts him in the ring. Telling him he's barred from ringside for the rest of the night, and having security drag him out of the ring. Sheamus returns anyway during the main event. The match ends in a no contest, and Sheamus cuts a promo stating that he will ruin every Raw from now on until he sees Triple H. Cue the music. Hunter comes out to the stage. No taunts, no microphone, he just looks out at the crowed for a minute or so, (maybe this will get a real crowd reaction) then slowly starts down to the ring. Sheamus drops the mic, and tries to kick HHH when he goes to slide into the ring, but it was a fake out. Hunter grabs his foot and pulls him out of the ring. A Pedigree later, Trips is making his way back up the ramp, having never said a word. "No Chance" hits about the time he gets back onto the stage, where he meets his father-in-law. Vince says he likes where this is going, and has Trips pull his shirt off to reveal that he's still heavily bandaged around the midsection ala DDP (he's been in street clothes every time he's showed up since Extreme Rules.) Vince states that Hunter's not going to be able to compete anytime soon because of the injuries Sheamus gave him, but that he's thinking the Grandest Stage of Them All is a good place to settle this. The usual no contact with each other until the match stipulation, and then he turns to Hunter. "You've been on the injured list, getting paid, since Extreme Rules. Now you're on paid vacation until Wrestlemania week. This is to see to it neither of you kills the other before the big payoff. If you can't cut it after resting for almost a year, if you lose at Wrestlemania, You'll never work a match in my ring again."

Business as usual on the road to Wrestlemania. Sheamus is booked to look unstoppable. Hunter is only shown in video packages training and the like. Never speaking a word.

The Raw before Wrestlemania, Sheamus is in the main event. "GAME OVER" comes across the tron. Hunter is standing under it in full ring gear, ribs still taped, but looking very much ready. Sheamus loses the match.

From here you can pretty much use your imagination on the actual match, but Trips has to lose and retire. I was more concerned with having a great build up. I put alot of thought into this, I hope you guys like it.
