Breakdown
Raven is extremly well rounded. The only thing his gameplan lacks is pure power. While his grapple and strikes are lacking at 80, they are still higher than most wrestlers in the game. He has very good speed at 90, which allows him to run circles around wrestlers, while being able to counter moves with his equally impressive technical rating. The key points for Raven are his off the charts charisma and hardcore rating. No one can build momentum as fast, or cause as much weapon damage as Raven can. Pull off a few taunts, and some weapon attacks, you will inflict a lot of humiliation and pain on your opponent. With the momentum maxed out, just finish them off with a finisher, or three, thanks to his fired up ability.
If all that positive praise wasn't enough, he also has very good durability, combined with the durability and resiliency abilities, which allows Raven to take a ton of punishment, and surivive to pull out the victory.
Cutscene: Raven Road to Wrestlemania intro.
Raven: No one has made as big of an impact as I have in XWA. I am the single biggest star this company has ever seen. I was the very firat XWA World Heavyweight Champion, and I held that very title for over a year. I have been in the ring with some of the biggest names this industry has ever seen. I have main evented WrestleMania countless time, and I am prepared to do it again. But, this time it's different, you are in control. So, prepare yourself for greatness, as you dominate everyone as me to the grandest stage of them all. If you make me lose any match, I will find you, and kick your Mother in the head.

Raven heads towards The Coach
Cutscene
The Coach: I am standing by with The Dark Lord, as he prepares to step in Hell in a Cell against Rob Van Dam. Raven how do you feel?
Raven: Tonight, hell comes to XWA. Inside this sadistic structure, two men will enter, and only one will exit. Tonight, I get to trap a high flyer in this confined space, and in the process mangle him and rip his limbs off his body. Rob Van Dam, you deserve to be in hell with me. You have made my life a living hell since you came to this company. Your constant nagging of getting an unfair title shot has stuck with me all this time.
But, my hell will end tonight. I will end your career, and in the process, get rid of that cursed High Flying garbage. Whether the GM realized it or not, by putting me in this match against you, he basically signed your death penality. Much like, Rey Mysterio, Matt Hardy, and Jeff Hardy, you too will be taken out, eliminated, destroyed, wiped off the face of the earth, and you only have yourself to thank. Your high flying ways put you here, and they won't save you this time.
Tonight Rob, tonight hell shows up at your doorstep, and it will break the door down, in the process, crushing your soul, and mutilating your body. Tonight, I will have my Redemption, and you Rob, what will you have?
Rob, tonight, you will have your execution.

Raven: It makes no difference who it is. I will cripple everyone in my path. William Regal is in a for a world of hurt.

GM Iser: With Badd Blood this Sunday, what better time to name the #1 Contender for the XWA title than right now. The man that will face Raven at Badd Blood is Kane!
Raven comes out on the stage with a mic
Raven: So, I have to face the Big burnt freak. Makes no difference to me. No matter how big, or small my opponent, I will destroy everyone in my path to keep this XWA title. Kane has no chance of beating me on Sunday.
GM Iser: Are you sure you want to egg him on?
Raven: Kane is too scared to do anything about it. If he were smart, he'd wait until Sunday, where he will get he beating of a lifetime.
The lights turn red as Kane's pyro goes off and scares Raven as we can hear his laughter throughout the arena.
Raven: You see, Kane isn't man enough to face me in person. I see you at Badd Blood Kane, where I will make an example out of you.

Raven: I am not worried about Kane. I am the true Monster in XWA. After tonight, not only will Kane know it, the entire world will know it.
GM Iser: Never short on confidence are you, Raven? But, it's nearly impossible to beat Kane, let alone make him tap. So, it will be hard to win, unless, you go a different route.
Story Progression 3: Arena Entrance
Match of the Week: Raven vs Kane [Single]
Raven: Iser is right, it is going to be hard to beat Kane, I can forget about making him submit. The best way is, if things are going his way, I should just hit him with the title, that way I can remain champion.

Terry Funk: Boy, you got no respect for the position you have right now by doing what you did. I don't care if you are facing two monsters over three hundred pounds. I was taking on five hundred pound men as NWA champion back in my day and you didn't see me back away. If you had such a damn problem with yer partner, take it out on him AFTER the match. Don't disrespect the position!
Raven: Look here old man, I don't know who you are, thinking you can barge into the locker room of the champion. You see, I am the champion in this fed, which means I call the shots. I don't know what you did 50 years ago, but, I do things a lot differently. Since, you seem to be wanting a piece of me. How about you go lace up your boots, and drag your broken body to the ring, and face me in a Hardcore match. Unless, you are too scared to face such a high ranking wrestler, such as myself.

Now, I don't know who you people are, and what you have done in your lives to discuss what kind of champion I am, but, I have done whatever it takes to hold onto this title. If anything, I should be praised for what I have done. It shows how much the title means to me. I have faced all challengers, and have remained XWA World Heavyweight Champion. It's a good thing I don't care about pleasing you people. If I did, I would probably never hold the title again. Let this be a message to all of you who are not happy with me. I will continue to do whatever it takes to hold onto this title. The Dark Lord is the biggest star on the history of the business, do well to remember that.
Dusty Rhodes music hits and he appears on the stage
Dusty Rhodes: Now, let me tell you something young man. Back in my time, a champion would do his talking in the ring. He would go out every night, battle the man across from him, go to war. Then after the match, he would have earned the respect of his peers and the fans. You, hide from a fight, and turn around and talk about how superior you are. I should come down there and smack some sense into if you will.
Raven: Listen here, you Senile buffoon. I have no idea what you did 50 years ago, but times have changed. I do things my own way, I could care less what these sheep think, or what you and the rest of the Lawrence Welk brigade think about me being champion.

Breakdown
Raven is extremly well rounded. The only thing his gameplan lacks is pure power. While his grapple and strikes are lacking at 80, they are still higher than most wrestlers in the game. He has very good speed at 90, which allows him to run circles around wrestlers, while being able to counter moves with his equally impressive technical rating. The key points for Raven are his off the charts charisma and hardcore rating. No one can build momentum as fast, or cause as much weapon damage as Raven can. Pull off a few taunts, and some weapon attacks, you will inflict a lot of humiliation and pain on your opponent. With the momentum maxed out, just finish them off with a finisher, or three, thanks to his fired up ability.
If all that positive praise wasn't enough, he also has very good durability, combined with the durability and resiliency abilities, which allows Raven to take a ton of punishment, and surivive to pull out the victory.

The Coach: I am standing by with The Dark Lord, as he prepares to step in Hell in a Cell against Rob Van Dam. Raven how do you feel?
Raven: Tonight, hell comes to XWA. Inside this sadistic structure, two men will enter, and only one will exit. Tonight, I get to trap a high flyer in this confined space, and in the process mangle him and rip his limbs off his body. Rob Van Dam, you deserve to be in hell with me. You have made my life a living hell since you came to this company. Your constant nagging of getting an unfair title shot has stuck with me all this time.
But, my hell will end tonight. I will end your career, and in the process, get rid of that cursed High Flying garbage. Whether the GM realized it or not, by putting me in this match against you, he basically signed your death penality. Much like, Rey Mysterio, Matt Hardy, and Jeff Hardy, you too will be taken out, eliminated, destroyed, wiped off the face of the earth, and you only have yourself to thank. Your high flying ways put you here, and they won't save you this time.
Tonight Rob, tonight hell shows up at your doorstep, and it will break the door down, in the process, crushing your soul, and mutilating your body. Tonight, I will have my Redemption, and you Rob, what will you have?
Rob, tonight, you will have your execution.
