Cross brand MMC Finding out Teams: Raw
Finding out the teams that have at least one Raw member. These four would be on the Raw show on Mondays. Two from the Raw-NXT cross and two from the Raw-Smackdown cross.

Austin Theory rubbed the back of his neck, sighing quietly to himself. He was heading back to Stephanie McMahon’s office for a meeting with the Commissioner of Monday Night Raw. While he wasn’t completely certain about what the meeting was about, he had an idea. Austin knew that he was going to be in the next Mixed Match Challenge, so he assumed it was going to be him meeting his partner.
‘Please let it be someone good,’ Austin thought to himself. He stepped up to Stephanie McMahon’s door, knocking on it.
“Come in,” Stephanie said. Austin turned the doorknob, opening it. Stephanie looked up, smiling at him.
“Ready to meet your partner?” She asked. Austin nodded, vaguely aware of the cameras behind him.
“So this year we are going to do something a bit different, instead of having the two wrestlers from the same brand, they’re going to be from different brand. You, obviously, will be representing Raw,” Stephanie said.
“And my partner?” Austin asked as there was another knock on her door.
“That should be her,” Stephanie smiled before calling, “Come in.” Austin looked up, his expression breaking into a smile as the familiar blonde NXT wrestler walked into the room.
“Austin Theory, meet your partner, Austin Flynn,” Stephanie said.
“Hell yes, this is going to be fun,” Austin T said with a grin.
“Hell yeah it will,” Austin F said, nodding as the two headed out and started walking down the hall.
“So…Team name?” Austin T said. Austin F hummed, running a hand through her strawberry blonde hair.
“I want to say Austin Two Time, since there are two of us. But it just…it sounds weird,” she said.
“I do like it,” Austin T agreed, “But…I also feel like we should have something unique…”
“What about Austin Dos Veces. Dos Veces is Spanish for two time,” Raul Mendoza’s voice broke over the two. Austin F burst into a smile and threw her arms around the Mexican Cruiserweight.
“Raul! That’s a great idea!” She exclaimed. Raul smiled, wrapping his arms around his fiancée.
“Hey Raul,” Austin T said with a smile.
“Hola, Austin,” Raul said, “How are you and Jake doing?”
“Good…good…I guess I’ll leave you two to yourselves now?” Austin T said.
“I actually have a meeting with Senora McMahon,” Raul said, his tone apologetic. Austin F pressed a kiss to his cheek, “I’ll see ya after your meeting, mi tesoro.” Raul kissed her forehead briefly before heading off in the direction of Stephanie McMahon’s office. The two Austin’s looked at each other before heading off to the catering area.
Raul stepped into Stephanie McMahon’s office, brushing his finger over the dark silver band on his finger.
“Raul, it’s good to see you,” Stephanie said, smiling at Raul. Raul smiled back, nodding wordlessly.
“So, I assume you’ve heard about the newest season of the Mixed Match Challenge,” she said.
“Somewhat, I know that the two Austins are a team,” Raul said. Stephanie nodded, “That’s correct. For this year, the Mixed Match Challenge is cross brand.”
“So who will I be teaming with?” Raul asked. The door opened upon his words and Nia Jax.
“Raul Mendoza, meet Nia Jax. She’s one of our biggest stars here on Raw. Nia, this is Raul Mendoza. He’s a cruiserweight who works mainly on NXT,” Stephanie made introductions.
“You’re one of those guys who were kidnapped, weren’t you?” Nia asked. Raul nodded, his expression guarded. He had heard the stories of Nia from Austin Theory and could only hope that he and Nia would never have to go against Austin Dos Veces.
“So what should we name our team?” Raul asked a couple minutes later as the two walked down the hall.
“I’m the Irresistible Force…and your twitter says you’re the Prestige…how about just the Irresistible Prestige?” Nia suggested. Raul nodded, “Sounds like a good idea.”
Seth looked down at his phone, seeing the text from his mom that she wanted to see him. Sighing to himself, Seth looked at his ‘disciples’.
“I have to go, my mom wants to see me,” Seth said apologetically. Akam and Rezar nodded while Buddy spoke up.
“It’s alright, mate. ‘Sides, Austin said he was in the catering area. We’ll meet you there?” He said. Seth nodded and clapped the red haired Aussie on the back of the neck briefly.
“I’ll meet you there,” he said before heading to his mom’s office. It was no secret amongst the Raw roster that the Monday Night Messiah was a bit of a Momma’s Boy, he would pretty much do anything for his mom.
“Hey Mom, what’s up?” Seth said upon entering his mother’s office.
“Hey Boo Bear,” Stephanie smiled as Seth walked around her desk to give his mom a hug.
“So what’s up?” Seth asked, running a hand through his hair.
“So as you know, we have another Mixed Match Challenge this year,” Stephanie began. Seth nodded, “Yeah, it seems like it’s going to be fun. So who am I going to team with?”
“We’re doing something different this year, as it’ll be cross brand,” Stephanie began before a southern accent spoke up.
“Oh looooord, it’s me and you again,” Lacey Evans said. Seth turned, smiling slightly.
“ClassyCrossfit reunites again,” he said.
R-Truth glanced around, holding his 24/7 7/11 European 48/12 championship tightly in his hands. There was no way he would lose it, no way at all. Especially if the request to meet with Mrs. McMahon was nothing but a trap. Glancing around and seeing no one, R-Truth darted to Stephanie’s office and slid in.
“Thank goodness,” he sighed in relief, seeing only the Commissioner of Monday Night Raw in the office.
“You alright there, Truth?” Stephanie asked, raising an eyebrow at him. R-Truth nodded but held tightly to his belt.
“So what’s up Boss Lady?” He asked. Stephanie smiled, getting ready to give her speech for the fourth time.
“So we’re having another Mixed Match Challenge, where a man and a woman make a team. Instead of having them from the same brand, though, they will be from separate teams,” she said. R-Truth nodded, “Yeah, I remember that! I was with ‘Mella…man I miss her.” Stephanie smiled as the door opened.
“...Truth?” Carmella’s voice spoke up.
“It’s almost like I can hear her voice,” R-Truth sighed.
“Truth!” Carmella walked up to him, snapping her fingers in his face to get his attention. R-Truth blinked.
“‘Mella! What are you doing here? You’re Raw,” he said. Carmella laughed, “I guess it seems like the Fabulous Truth is reuniting.”
