May 05, 2001: RAW: Jerry Lynn defeated Spike Dudley (c) to win the WWF Light Heavyweight Championship RAW Is WAR - Madison Square Garden - New York City, New York - May 07, 2001
VINCE MCMAHON CALLS ALL WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION MEMBERS TO THE RING
Vince opens up RAW standing in the middle of the ring, he calls all WWF superstars that have not turned their backs on him to come down to the ring. One by one WWF superstars come out and gather around the ring. Vince McMahon says he knows a war is coming, he knows his children are conniving, heartless and spoiled people. He says he knows that most of the WWF superstars do have history with both ECW and WCW so right here right now they have to make a decision on rather or not to be with Team WWF or they can walk away and join the other side. He goes down the roster and calls one by one, thumbs up if your team Vince or thumbs down if your allegiance is somewhere else.
Al Snow, Albert, Big Boss Man, Big Show, Billy Gunn, Bradshaw are the first to give the thumbs up. They get to Bubba Ray Dudley and D-Von Dudley and Vince asks the Dudley Boyz, Bubba says "Vince, I hate that POS Paul Heyman more than you do, Im with you" Bull Buchanan accepts. Benoit and Jericho both with roots in WCW, both give a thumbs up to Vince. Christian thumbs up. Crash Holly, D'Lo Brown are team WWF. He asks all the other Radicalz (Eddie Guerrero, Dean Malenko and Perry Saturn) and Eddie says hes with team WWF, they left WCW for a reason. Edge with the thumbs up. Vince asks Faarooq who was a former WCW Champion, Faarooq says Dammnit Vince that was over 10 years ago. Vince asks Funaki if hes with WWF and Funaki says INDEED. Haku is next and he gives a head nod to Vince. Hardcore Holly, Ivory, Jacqueline, Jeff Hardy, Kwik Killings, Kane, Kurt Angle, Lita, Mark Henry, Matt Hardy, Molly Holly, Rikishi, Scotty 2 Hotty, Spike Dudley all gives a thumbs up. Then they get to Stone Cold Steve Austin, Vince asks Stone Cold where he stands since he was in both ECW and WCW. Stone Cold gets in the ring and tells Vince McMahon that Stone Cold doesnt trust anybody, but hes the WWF Champion for a reason and he gives Vince a thumbs up and then a middle finger. He goes through the rest of the roster and they all agree. He brings in the Rock, the Rock puts his hand in front of Vinces fate and tells Vince that hes going to send all the ECW/WCW jabaronis back to the bingo halls where they came from. They then get to Triple H. Vince McMahon lets Triple H know he knows hes in a conflict between his company and his family. Triple H stands there for a second before walking away to the back. Vince says Shane, Stephanie, I have my army. The line in the sand is drawn and if they want to fight, then the World Wrestling Federation superstars are going to bring it to them.
The leader of team WWF, the chairman, Vincent K. McMahon

05/10/2001: SmackDown!: Rhyno (c) defeated Bradshaw to retain the WWF Intercontinental Championship RAW Is WAR - Firstar Center - Cincinnati, Ohio - May 14, 2001
ECW and WCW JOIN FORCES AND CREATE THE ALLIANCE
After Vince McMahon gathered up his army it only made sense that his offspring do the same. Stephanie McMahon and Shane McMahon arm and arm headed down to the ring. Stephanie said that no matter who wants to join her father, at the end of this, they will all be on the losing end. She says she hasnt talked to her husband Triple H about this, hes neutral. Shane McMahon takes the microphone and tells Vince that nobody in his "army" has what it takes to beat ECW, nobody in his "army" can beat WCW and especially now nobody in the world can beat the Alliance. Yes, thats right, now ECW and WCW have combined into one unit called the alliance. They call out the rest of the Alliance to the ring. The alliance consists of Big Vito, Billy Kidman, Booker T, Buff Bagwell, Chavo Guerrero Jr., Chris Kanyon, Chuck Palumbo, Elix Skipper, Evan Karagias, Gregory Helms, Hugh Morrus, Jazz, Jerry Lynn, Justin Credible, Johnny the Bull, Kid Kash, Lance Storm, Mark Jindrak, Mike Awesome, Mike Sanders, Paul Heyman, Rhyno, Rob Van Dam, Sean O'Haire, Tommy Dreamer, and Vampiro. Shane McMahon says the Alliance are only going to get stronger day by day. Shane McMahon turns to Tazz whos sitting on the announce table and asks him what side hes on. Tazz tells Shane McMahon that hes retired, hes not taking any sides, any anybody who wants to try and force him to join a side will become JUST ANOTHER VICTIM. After Tazz says that, Shane McMahon whispers something to Big Vito and both Big Vito and Johnny the Bull go out towards Tazz and attacks him. They put Tazz through the announce table. Stephanie gets on the microphone and says "You're either with us or against us". Shane says "oh, one more thing, Vince, you're going to love this" Shane announces the newest member of the alliance is...WILLIAM REGAL. Regal is the first superstar to jump ship from team WWF to the Alliance.
Stephanie McMahon and ECW have joined her brother Shane McMahon and WCW in the battle against their Father Vince and the WWF.

RAW Is WAR - Compaq Center - San Jose, California - May 21, 2001
TRIPLE H IS TAKEN OUT OF ACTION BY WWF DEFECTORS.
After the main event match of Team WWFs Chris Jericho and Kane vs the Alliances Bam Bam Bigelow and Chris Kanyon, Shane McMahon and the rest of the Alliance members came down to the ring to do battle but other members of the WWF came down to even the playing field. Triple H came down to the ring and stood in the middle between the two sides. Triple H hasnt picked a side since the war has begun. All of a sudden Stephanie McMahon came down to the ring to talk to her husband. Stephanie wanted an answer but Triple H wouldnt give her one until Triple H turned his back to Stephanie and the Alliance. It looked like Triple H had chosen Team WWF. Tazz who last week got put through a table got up from the announce table and walked behind Triple H in a side of solidarity until Tazz started choking out Triple H. TAZZ HAS TURNED HIS BACK ON THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION!! Shockingly the other members of the WWF side just stood there and did not stop Tazz from applying the submission. Stephanie came on the mic and said It looks like you made your own decision, and pointed to the Dudley Boyz who were on the side of team WWF and hit Triple H with a 3D. The rest of "Team WWF" started stomping on Triple H. WCW owner Shane McMahon brought a steel chair in the ring and placed it on Triple H's injured ankle and shockingly the Big Show stomped down on the chair. The Big Show has joined the Alliance. Triple H is rolling in pain while Paul Heyman, Shane McMahon and Stephanie McMahon laugh at his pain.
After being betrayed by his wife, Triple H will be out of action for the unforeseeable future.

05/24/2001: SmackDown!: Test (c) defeated Rhyno to retain the WWF Intercontinental Championship
SmackDown! - Arrowhead Pond - Anaheim, California - May 24, 2001
NATURAL BORN THRILLERS WIN TLC II, RETAIN WWF TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS.
After defeating Christian and Edge at Judgment Day, Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire not only were the WCW Tag Team Champions, but they were also the WWF Tag Team Champions. Holding both championships there was no doubt that the two Alliance members were at top of the tag team division. Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley who were also Alliance members wanted a crack at one of the championships the Natural Born Thrillers held. Commissioner Foley told the four men that they can compete for both championships but they are going to do it in a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs match and Foley added both the former tag team champions Christian and Edge, and the Hardy Boyz. The match started with the Alliance members (Bubba, Chuck, D-Von and Sean) duking it out with the Team WWF members. Both Hardyz hit the Poetry in Motion off the backs of Christian and Edge on the Alliance members. Both Hardyz and E&C climbed the ladder but the Alliance members recovered and pushed them off. NBT grabbed the ladders to climb but the Dudleyz stopped them. After a stand off between the two teams, NBT and the Dudleyz started going at it. Edge and Christian rolled back in the ring with chairs and attacked the Alliance team. The match ended with both the Hardyz and Dudley Boyz crashing through a table on the outside. Christian and Edge and the champion Natural Born Thrillers were the last two teams left in the ring. After a spear to Palumbo took him out of the ring it looks like Christian and Edge were going to be the champions. As Edge started climbing the Ladder, Christian took a chair and hit Edge in the back! Christian turned on Edge. Palumbo and O'Haire took this opportunity to climb the Ladder and grab both the WCW and WWF Tag Team belts for the victory.
After a brutal Tables, Ladders and Chairs match, the Natural Born Thrillers are still your WCW and WWF Tag Team Champions.

SPIKE DUDLEY FACES OFF AGAINST WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION CHAMPION STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN
Ever since the Alliance has raged war on the World Wrestling Federation, the two armies have battled against each other for weeks. Spike Dudley who was on Team Alliance became smitten with Molly Holly from Team WWF. The two superstars would sneak off and try to blossom their romance without the other factions knowing. Spikes brothers Bubba Ray and D-Von Dudley disapproved by the romance from Spike and so did Molly's cousins Crash and Hardcore. The leader Shane McMahon forced Spike to show his allegiance. Shane told Spike that he would go one-on-one with Stone Cold Steve Austin and to bring the WWF Championship to the Alliance. Spike who would be outsized by the Rattlesnake knew that this was a test to see where his heart was. The match begun with Spike coming to the ring alone and then the champion Austin came down to the ring. Stone Cold dominated the youngest Dudley and hit him with a Stone Cold Stunner to win the match in quick fashion. After Spike slowly got back to his feet while Stone Cold was celebrating, Spike told the Rattlesnake that he wants another stunner. Molly Holly then ran down to the ring to help Spike. Stone Cold Steve Austin stepped up to Spike Dudley and slowly extended a hand to Spike in a sign of respect. Spike and Stone Cold shook hands before Austin left the ring. Even though they are on different sides of the battlefield, the WWF Champion Stone Cold saw the heart that Alliance's Spike Dudley has.

Trish laughed at Big Show before walking away. the Big Show took on WWF European Champion Jeff Hardy. Jeff started off the match by trying to evade the Big Show but Show got ahold of him and flung him through the ropes. Show follows Hardy to the outside and charges at Hardy but Hardy moved and Big Show went right into the steel steps. Jeff rolls in the ring for a close 10 count but the Big Show rolled back in the ring. Jeff went for the Twist of Fate but Big Show reversed it and hit a big boot. Big Show tried to hit Hardy with a chokeslam as Trish Stratus ran to the apron and distracted the Big Show. Big Show was entranced by Trish Stratus' and all of a sudden Trish Stratus slapped the Big Show. While the referee was telling Trish Stratus to get to the back Jeff went for a Swanton Bomb but was pushed off the top rope by an unidentified person. Big Show took advantage of this and chokeslammed the champion Hardy for the 1...2..3. The Big Show celebrated his win with the unidentified person who slowly revealed themselves to be STACY KEIBLER FROM WCW. The Big Show celebrated with Keibler and both walked up the ramp hand in hand with the WWF European Championship.
