PW Draft 2015 - EVALUATION THREAD
-
31-01-2015 2:40pmThis is the thread that participants in the Draft game may use for the weekly TV show build of their respective rosters in the contest. It will also ultimately be used for the final write-up at the end to determine which roster is the winner.- Posting is optional. Participants don't have to write weekly shows for their rosters if they don't want to.
- You can outline your promotion, TV show name, your roster's champions etc.
- The norm has been to post once per draft pick. This is essentially your weekly TV show building up to your PPV so you can post this up to 5 times.
For this opening stage if you want to do a post outlining your roster and then do a post for week 1 of your show, that's fine. Try to make sure in future rounds however you make it one show per round so it stays easy for everyone to follow.
- Final write-ups will be posted after round 15. It is your PPV event and the only thing which is a requirement in this thread. This is not optional as the PPV will be judged to determine the winner.
You can commence your PPV build now. Good luck and have fun. As always please keep discussion of the game in the discussion thread.4

Welcome to our annual event of CWA Fallout
We open tonight's show with Mr.Perfect in the ring about to address the crowd.Mr.Perfect:CWA Revolution in 4 weeks time a new World Champion will be crowned, when people talk of World Champion’s do you know who’s name is never mentioned, yes that of Mr.Perfect..
It’s not your time Curt they used to say, you just don’t have the x-factor we are looking for, we are going for a bigger guy Curt..
Well I am sick of taking a back seat , sick of being the company man , sick of been known as probably the greatest wrestler who ever lived not have won a World Championship, unlike some of my colleagues in the back.
People like Mark Henry, this is a man who fathered a hand with a 110 year woman for heck sake, people like The Ultimate Warrior who spent more energy running to the bank to cash his cheques then he did in the ring, Eddie Guerrero who lied, cheated and stole his World Titles, Ivan Koloff a man who people don't even remember being a World Champion, James Storm who spent so long drinking he does't even remember holding a title and then of course we have a biggest fraud of them all, a man who was more interested in the cash then the prestige , a man who who made it his business to form a little clique to make sure that he had the political backing to get that top spot...of course that man can only be Kevin Nash.
Scott Hall's music hitsHall: Yo...You got a lot to say up their tonight but as you know Big Daddy cool is not here tonight because if he was he would come down to that ring and shove that mic down your throat, but the bad guy is here so tonight Perfect why don't you face me and let's see how Perfect you really areCommentator: It looks like we have a match for tonightAD BREAK
And we are back with our 1st match up of the night with James Storm facing off against Mark Henry.
Storm starts off really well forcing Mark Henry to go on the back foot, Henry has to step outside of the ring to get his head back in the fight, when he does get back in the ring he begins to use his strength as an advantage and slows things down, Storm shows some good offence but Henry was just too strong for him and wins via clean pin fall.
Winner: Mark Henry
As Mark Henry is celebrating in the ring Bob Sapp comes out to look down on Henry.
Backstage interview with Eddie Guerrero
Commentator: Eddie you are the reigning and defending CWA Legends Champion with CWA Revolution coming up in 4 weeks time is their anyone in particular that you would like to face for the Championship.
Eddie Guerrero: You see chico I've been around this industry a long time jose ,and I have yet to meet an hombre with the cajunas who was good enough to face Eddie Guerrero so I am issuing a challenge to all the wannabe's out their if you want this title come and get it but bring your cajunas with you.Next up tonight with have the debut of the Ultimate Warrior who faces off against his old foe Nikolai Volkoff:
Volkoff is waiting in the ring for the Warrior who burst out of the back and begins to run his way to the ring as soon as he hits the ring he clotheslines Volkoff and comes off the ropes but as he does Ivan Koloff and Nikitta Koloff jump into the ring and start to double team Warrior, Volkoff now joins in and all 3 men beat down on the Warrior, the pick him up and jack knife him outside of the ring and onto the concrete floor.
Winner: Ultimate Warrior via DQ.
Now it is time for our main event of the evening as Mr.Perfect faces off against Scott Hall
Both men are giving it all for the fans who are lapping up the main event, it is a very even match up which goes back and forth, finally Perfect had begun to get on top of the match up and hits his perfect plex but out of nowhere Kevin Nash runs into the ring, the crowd boo and the commentators remind us the Nash was not meant to be here tonight...Both Nash and Hall now beat down on Perfect and things look bad until Mr. Anderson runs to the ring with a chair and makes the save .
Winner via DQ: Mr.Perfect0 -
The words RCW appear across the screen and fade back out again
The camera now focuses on one man sitting in front of a desk , The man is Shane Mcmahon, He sits at the table there is nothing on it but a folder , Shane looks straight head on in to the camera
Shane: Welcome everyone , My name is Shane McMahon , Son of Legendary Promoter and CEO of WWE Vince McMahon , I come here to you today with one order of business the company formaly known as Ragen Championship Wrestling which ran shows across the country last year , In case you didn’t see , Here is a small highlights package of what you missed.
The screen goes blank and then a video begins to play showing clips on RCW’s big Pay Per View Last year
Joe now pushs the ref towards the ropes which is enough to unsteady Tazz who falls onto the turn buckle, Joe now sees this and goes over, Joe lifts Tazz , he’s going to hit the muscle buster , Bischoff is now on the apron and nails the referee , hes hit Joe square in the face now with a steel chair busting him open, Joe spaghetti legged drops Tazz and Bishcoff hits him again just to be sure , He falls straight into the waiting Tazz Mission , Tazz locks it in tight and gets his legs wrapped around Joe aswell , Bischoff now wakes up the ref…Joe is out cold , the referee sees it and calls for the bell
PJ: It can’t end like this !!!! No!!!
JR: This is amazing!!
RA: The winner of this match and NEW RCW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION TAZZ!!!!!!
Before Tazz is given the belt a man in a suit walks down the ramp and into the ring it’s the RCW owner Ragen !!!!!
PJ: OH MY GOD WHATS THIS
He takes the microphone: This is not how our historic 1st main event is going to end Bischoff you’re fired !!!!!, Joe get up Tazz get ready im restarting this match !
Tazz can’t believe it he goes nose to nose with the owner and before he can do anything Joe spins him around and hit’s a massive inzugri , Joe now lifts Tazz up on his shoulders and hits massive muscle buster !!!!!! PIN 1.…………..2.…………..3.……….. SAMOA JOE IS THE CHAMPION !!!!
JR: Tazz just got screwed
Tazz is dumfounded and rolls out of the ring as Ragen re enters the ring and hands Samoa Joe the title !!!
The screen once agains fades back to black
It reopens now on Shane again sitting at the desk looking unimpressed
Shane: Last year that……was our Main Event the RCW title match. Samoa Joe and Tazz two men who could never win the big one in WCW, ECW or WWE , Those 2 were our main event players , and credit where credit is due , Those 2 guys left it all in the ring , But we still ended up on a screwy finish, Our competitors not only made us look small time , but the finish of the main event made us look distinctly small time
Shane: This year RCW was in danger of closing its doors, on the polls RCW was one of the worst federations going around, and this is where I am come in , You see I’ve been away from Wrestling a long time , My father and my Sister put me off it for a long time , But I’ve been away for a long time, Too Long and in RCW a small fledgling company that needed a captain at the helm, I’ve bought all the stock for RCW and I’m the sole owner now , There will be no Ragen, There will be no Eric Bischoff , and further more there will be no C list stars fighting for our title , and on that note the Xtreme and International Titles are gone
Shane: The reason we will now only have one title is to keep our talent highly motivated to keep pushing to the top , and furthermore tonight we will see the start of the RCW World Championship Title Tournament , Last night I announced Dos Caras as the 1st participant and Round 1 starts tonight with 7 further participants to be revealed as the night goes on
Shane: Oh and last thing before the show starts this is no Longer Ragen Championship Wrestling , We are now known as Real Championship Wrestling going forward
CAMERA FADES
Camera opens to a live arena with fans jam packed into the arena , Pyro and explosions go off everywhere to signal the start of the new show RAGE , The camera focus’s on the two announcers PJ and JR
PJ: Welcome everyone to the new Real Championship Wrestling and welcome to our new signature show RAGE !
JR: It’s hard to believe you kept you’re job here
PJ: I think we should count ourselves lucky Bischoff Samoa Joe, Tazz, Roman Reigns, Rollins and god knows who else all gone !!
JR: It’s going to be tough tonight for us to put on a decent show with no Wrestlers !
PJ: Obviously new guys have been signed you idiot, This is Shane McMahon we’re dealing with here , I’m sure he has a hell of a roster lined up for us
JR: And what about this Tournament Joe our champion is gone so now we start our search for a new champion
PJ: Well that’s one thing you’ve gotten right and up next to start us off is the 1st match and Legendary Luchadore Dos Caras is going to kick us off lets get down to the ringside announcer
Camera cuts to the ring where we have Leilani sweet our new announcer standing in the ring
LS: I welcome you all the rage zone for our 1st edition of Real Championship Wrestling and the 1st match in our World Title Tournament , Please let me welcome to the Rage Zone Legendary Luchadore Dos Caras to the ring
The fans all cheers wildly as Caras’s music plays , He walks out from behind the curtain to a rapturous applause , He looks ripped and ready to go wearing his trademark Luchadore Mask
PJ: This guy is a legend in the Wrestling Industry and tonight he steps foot in our ring for the 1st time
JR: This guy ? Seriously he must be 70 by now surely
PJ: Will you show some respect , He said to reporters that he’s in the shape of his life and wanted to have one last comeback
JR: Oh so we’re an old folks home now ? I wonder who’s going to come out next ? Abe Simpson ?
Dos Caras climbs into the ring and laps up the applause he climbs the Turnbuckles and salutes all the crowd, He goes to the middle of the ring now and gives the announcer a hug and goes back to his corner
LS: Now it is time to introduce the 2nd man in this match and Dos Caras’s mystery opponent , This man is a former NCAA heavyweight champion and also WWE and UFC undisputed Heavyweight Champion , He is the BEAST BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOCCCCCKK LESSSSNAR !!!
Lesnars music plays and the roof almost blows off the arena as the audience are amazed ! He walks out dressed in the UFC style get up , the crowd can’t believe
JR: Holy **** ! as a namesake of mine used always say BUSINESS HAS JUST PICKED UP
PJ: This is an amazing signing Brock Lesnar, Shane Mcmahon wasn’t messing around
JR: Now you have got to be worried about Dos Caras, If he wasn’t in the old folks home before he will now
PJ: This is going to be a tough watch , No matter how fit Caras is , He surely will not be able to hold on too long here
Lesnar walks down the aisle with his eyes focused on Dos Caras he leaps up onto the apron and fireworks go off, Caras doesn’t look too worried , Lesnar walks into the ring now and turns and looks all around him soaking up the atmosphere, The two of them now walk to the centre of the ring and face off, Lesnar looks him up and down and smiles
JR: Well here we go again lets see what happens
The bell rings and we’re set to go , Dos caras looks up at lesnar now and runs the ropes he comes back with a forearm clothesline , Lesnar soaks it up and laughs at him , Dos Caras repeats it again, and again he just bounces off Lesnar
PJ: This does not bode well
Dos Caras runs the ropes again and goes for the 3rd clothesline but this Lesnar races over to meet him and levels him with a clothesline almost turning Caras inside out, Lesnar now pulls Dos Caras up from behind , He wraps his arms around his stomach and lesnar lifts him up and hits a massive german suplex
JR: We all know how much he loves this move

PJ: This is unfair
JR: Lets hope he signed the waiver

PJ: An opening for Caras !
Dos Caras now stands Lesnar up in the corner and begins to chop at him , The echo of the chops resonate around the arena , Lesnar falls to the floor now in a heap, Caras now goes off the ropes again and this time hits a baseballs slide type dropkick on Lesnar, Caras now gets up again , He signals something to the crowd now , He drags brock to his feet and runs off the ropes , He comes back and hits a massive cross body on Brock knocking him straight away
JR: Make no mistake Caras is no tiny Mexican like most of them
Caras now points to the top turnbuckle …
PJ: Is he going to go up top ! Could he be looking to finish Lesnar here ?
JR: What an upset we could have here
Caras now climbs the turnbuckle he points to Lesnar who is grounded , He looks around at the crowd and makes a leap , But just as he does Lesnar hops to his feet and catch’s Dos Caras on his shoulders,
PJ: OH my god the power ! He’s like a cat
JR: He’s got him in postion
Lesnar roars out like a lion and F5’s dos caras into the mat , Dos caras is out , Lesnar now hops back up again fresh as a daisy , He goes over to Caras again , He drags his lifeless body up, Lesnar scoops him up and German Suplexes’him again, This time lesnar holds on , He hits three more suplexe’s un answered
JR: We should probably get someone out here
Lesnar now smiles sadisticly , He drags up Dos Caras again by the neck of his mask, Lesnar now scoops him up on his shoulders, He spins around and hits another massive F5 ! Lesnar pins him now 1………2………3
PJ: Well thank god its all over Lesnar advances
JR: Have we signed anyone else as monstrous as Lesnar this is our new champion right here
Lesnar now looks down at Caras who is out , There is some blood coming from Caras’s mouth as he leaves, Camera now focuses on Lesnar as he leaves through the curtain ,not 10 seconds later we see Alberto Del Rio come running through the curtain
PJ: Lets hope he’s okay here’s Del Rio out to check on his Dad here
JR: You don’t like seeing stuff like this
Del rio now gets in the ring, He begins mouthing something to Dos Caras, Alberto now helps Caras to his feet he seems to be coming around , Del Rio motions to the back for some help, pretty soon a bunch of roads agents and emt staff come running through the curtain, They all come in the ring now and they help out the fallen luchadore , Del rio stands off now with a relieved look on his face, Del Rio now goes outside the ring , The camera now focuse’s on Dos Caras getting helped down the aisle , All of a sudden from behind Del Rio comes roaring back into shot and attacks his father from behind knocking the whole lot of them
PJ: AWW good jesus what now !
JR: never trust a Mexican
Del Rio pulls up his father who is helpless, Del Rio tucks his father head in and piledrives him on the concrete in the aisle
PJ: His neck could be broken !
We can see here Del Rio shouting at his father now as the EMT’s try and push him
Del Rio: I told you !!!! I told you !!! you wouldn’t listen !!!!
PJ: This is despicable folks we’re going to a break here
ADD BREAK
We come back from the break and the camera is focused on the ring
JR: Well looks like one of our newest talents is going to have a few words to say to the crowd
PJ: I hate surprises
Real American Blasts out over the PA and the crowd pops massively
JR: Could it really be him !!
PJ: Oh Christ seriously this guy !
It continues to play but no one has come out !, Just then the curtains opens and out walks a man wearing a turban and holding an American Flag, The crowd immedietley starts to boo loudly
PJ: Yes Yes its not Hogan !
JR: Oh my god its Muhammed Hassan this guy disappeared years ago
Hassan walks towards the ring with a sarcastic smile on his face, He throws the flag in to the ring and makes his way in , He now grabs a mic from the time keeper the crowd is red hot booing the hell out of Hassan
MH: You’re booing me ?
: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
MH: hahahhaha you people are so fickle …… You hear the music of Real American and you cheer loudly ! , Yet when an American walks through the curtain you booo me, I know why actually , Its because I’m not some 6 foot plus California tanned blonde gym freak , But you see I’m just as American as each and every one of you!
Crowd: BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
MH: I get it , You’re a bunch of racist hypocritical americans , I was born in the United States of America, But because of my name you want to boo me , Muhammed Hassan is my name for all you out there who don’t know me , I have signed here to RCW to relaunch my career in Pro Wrestling , You see WWE are bastards they fired me . They fired me because of terrorist threats in the US and London ! I’m not a bloody terrorist
Crowd are molten hot with the boos for hassan again
MH: It wasn’t me who flew planes into you’re twin towers !, It wasn’t me who took those hostages in France lately but because of my Religion I’m being discriminated against , 10 years or so ago I got the very same treatment ! Have none of you woken up and seen the real threat , The real terrorists ! The American and UK governments are the terrorists
Just then a familiar music hits !~
JR: Looks like Big E Langston has signed up for us too , this must be our next quarter final
Big E walks out with a microphone
BE: Are you a bit slow or something Hassan ? There not booing you because of you’re religion ! There booing you because you’re a DICK
The crowd cheers as Langston drops the mic and makes his way down to the ring with a purpose, Hassan in the ring has gotten his entrance gear already off and is waiting for him , Langston rolls under the ropes and into the ring but he’s met with a barrage of stomps from Hassan , Big E soon fights his way to his feet with the crowd loudly cheering him on
PJ: Great work from Big E here
JR: I don’t like either of these guys
They battle back and forth with Hassan focusing on Langstons back , Muhammed Hassan now gets an advantage He soon hits a big back breaker on Langston, Hassan now locks in a camel clutch , Langston is in immense pain here, He taps out
PJ: It’s all over
JR: Well done Big E you lasted ….4 seconds ?
Hassan now takes the microphone and rolls Big E out of the ring with his foot
MH: Is this the best you’ve got ? You cheer this rubbish and you boo me a fantastic American athlete ? This competition is easy who’s next ?
Shane Mcmahon walks out from the curtain with a microphone in his hand
SM: Easy huh ? Well in the semi finals you’ll meet Brock Lesnar ! See how easy you think that one is
Hassan throws a strop in the ring as we cut to a commercial !
We come back and a familiar yet different music plays over the PA
PJ: I know that music its from the 90’s X Men animated TV show ..Who the hell is this ?
JR: A cartoon ? Seriously ?
Just as the crowd is quite not sure what to make out walks Hugh Jackamn the actor , The fans cheers as the Wolverine star stands in the entrance way smiling and waving to the people he now walks down to the ring and rolls in Jackman takes a microphone and begins to speak

Monday Night Grappling kicked off its brand new season with a two-hour special on the Boards PW network. The first hour was a recap of events since the end of the 2014 Draft; the second hour featured a press conference from MNG Headquarters hyping the return of the new season. There was a dramatic incident at the conclusion of the press conference which will be detailed below.Previously on Monday Night Grappling
Spring, 2014
Monday Night Grappling secures top ratings for the third straight season in a row. The TV, PPV and sponsorship companies are delighted, and the owner is given his most lucrative financial package to date.
There is concern, however, that the owner’s noted ego is now beyond control. He declares the talent expendable. Trouble soon follows. The bulk of last year’s stars are either refused deals, or else leave for a happier working environment. Unperturbed, the owner assures fans Monday Night Grappling will be ‘back, and better than ever’, and furthermore promises fans he can secure top drawer talent, including ‘the biggest star in the company’s history’.
Summer, 2014
A raft of top stars are signed to the company and in the biggest surprise of all, to the shock of the wrestling world, Stone Cold Steve Austin signs with Monday Night Grappling for the first time.
It was not long, though, before the owner’s egomania and the rebellious Rattlesnake soon collided. After a summer of bitter fighting in which the owner tried to first control Stone Cold, and then, later, prevent him from gaining the Title (a feud that would include the owner even putting the title upon himself rather than let Austin fight for it), the fan favourite Austin would eventually prevail and win the MNG World Heavyweight Title at Grappleslam. He still holds the gold to this day.
The owner, meanwhile, would soon leave.
December, 2014
With the owner away, fans wonder whether Monday Night Grappling’s new season will return. The sponsors and broadcasters are unavailable for comment; Austin then sets tongues wagging by hinting his neck is not quite right on Conan O‘Brien. ‘I think everyone knows the problems I’ve had with my neck and the surgeries and all that sh*t. I’ve still got concerns, yeah, and the cats here wrestling at Monday Night Grappling go all out; 100 per cent, so yeah I gotta take that into account every time I set foot in that squared circle. It does play on my mind, yeah.’
January, 2015
The owner reveals Monday Night Grappling will return but that someone else has been hired to handle general affairs in the promotion; the owner says he’s sure Stone Cold will be delighted at the new appointment.
Eric Bischoff is announced as the new General Manager. Stone Cold makes no comment on the news but sources close to him say he is not happy.
Fans react with outrage over the appointment of a man who has represented Monday Night Grappling’s rivals in the past. They launch a petition called ‘Get the Bisch Out’ which attracts over 100,000 signatures.
Bischoff later denies reports in an online blog that he referred to Monday Night Grappling’s fanbase as ‘pond-life scum’.
Shortly after TMZ breaks the news that Kim Kardashian has been hired by Bischoff as guest host of Grapplemania.
Despite anger amongst the fans the news generates huge publicity. Many news outlets ponder what entrance music she will use, what clothes she will wear, and whether or not Kim will be taking a Stunner before the season ends.Titles
World Heavyweight Title
Stone Cold Steve Austin quickly set his sights on the World Title upon his arrival. As noted above, despite efforts by the owner to thwart Stone Cold’s hopes for the gold over his hell-raising antics, and uncompromising attitude, Stone Cold secured the championship and heads into Grapplemania as the champion.
Women’s Championship
Paige, considered by many pundits as the top female of the modern era, is hired in what is announced as the biggest deal ever for a female performer. Rumours abound that Paige’s mother joining was a necessary component of Paige’s signing. Paige wins the title on her first night in the company, just as she did in WWE, and is the current reigning, defending champion.
Legends Championship
Kerry Von Erich secured the Legends Championship this past summer and has defended it successfully ever since. He remains very popular with the fans and has been tipped for a potential World Title run at some point down the line.
Tag Team Championship
The 2013 MNG Tag Champions Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard returned to the company in the wake of the departures from last year. They quickly recaptured the titles which they rightly point out they had never lost, and they have bested every tag team put against them thus far. They consider themselves the greatest tag team in the company's history.Challengers
Dynamite Kid & Davey Boy Smith
Despite rumblings of disharmony behind the scenes, The British Bulldogs have been a big hit with the fans since arriving and have toured the country, along with their bulldog Matilda, defeating all challengers put in their path. Their future plans are unclear.
Rey Mysterio
Some have queried whether Rey Mysterio will soon be gunning for Stone Cold’s World Title. He has been a big hit with the Hispanic audience and has captured the eye with his stunning performances, reminding fans of his tremendous days in WCW.
Sin Cara aka Mistico
After Sin Cara arrived with Rey, some fans have speculated that the high-fliers may fancy their chances against The Brainbusters for the tag gold. However reports from Sin Cara to the Mexican media expressing unhappiness at not being the lone Lucha star on the show have left many confused. Sin Cara’s representatives have hastily denied the reports.
Sweet Saraya
Saraya has said she is thrilled to get her first opportunity with a major promotion and has denied that her association with Paige had anything to do with it. She has also had to explain why she never tweeted congratulations to her daughter when she won the MNG Women’s Title. ‘Why would I f*ckin’ tweet her?’
Tyler Breeze
Tyler Breeze has claimed that like a true model he has been turning heads since day one, and has vowed to be the one everyone is talking about when the season finishes. He has so far been successful: he has taken to wearing a mask made out of solid glass when in public. ‘You don’t get to see this gorgeous face for free; instead, you get to see your own ugliness.’
Nick Bockwinkel
Despite it seeming that the owner had turned everyone from last year against him, Nick Bockwinkel remains the lone survivor from last year. A Monday Night Grappling veteran, having held the Legends Title in 2012, and the Tag Titles last year, fans are wondering whether he could win the big one, the World Title, and become the company’s first ever Grand Slam Champion.
Eric Bischoff & Kim Kardashian
Eric Bischoff has been bombarded with negative reactions from the die-hard fans since becoming G.M. of the company, but he has brushed them aside by stating controversy creates cash. Fans are wondering whether he and Stone Cold can co-exist, and whether any of his promises can be believed.
It is unclear how many dates Kim Kardashian has agreed with the company but it has been confirmed she will be the guest host for Grapplemania. She has attracted mainstream interest from many networks but fans are concerned whether her heart is in this or not.
More big names have been promised by Eric Bischoff in the coming weeks…Monday Night Grappling Press Conference
There was a shocking moment at today's press conference for Monday Night Grappling hyping the new season. Details are still emerging.
The following report was sent into the Wrestling Observer by a fan who attended.Hi Dave,
Just got back from the Monday Night Grappling Press Conference today in Houston and decided to send a report. It was eventful to say the least.
Eric Bischoff came out first and was booed heavily. He ploughed on like a trooper. He said don't judge him on his time with the small fry such as WECWF. He asked for people to give him a chance and that he was eager for the show to continue to be successful. Fans didn’t believe him and booed. He said almost everyone on the roster is backstage but who do they want to see most of all? Fans chanted for Austin as Bischoff smiled.
He introduced Kim Kardashian (live via satellite sadly) and she was booed even more. She seemed to take it in her stride, however. She said she was excited about Grapplemania and appearing on TV in future. Bischoff called her sumptuous. Seriously.
Next out were Rey and Sin Cara. Sin Cara barely said anything. Rey did the translating and honestly Sin Cara looked like he wished he was anywhere but there. Rey seemed in good spirits. Said ideally he’d like a shot at the World Title and Austin never faced anyone like him before.
Later out came Paige and her mother, I forget her name – Sarya I think? Paige got a great pop. Paige’s mother seemed a bit fed up that all the questions were going to her daughter. She did get REALLY pissed off, though, when someone asked if it was true she only got the job cos of Paige. She was ranting at the dude about does he not know how long she’s been in this business fighting for this opportunity etc. It was kinda funny. Paige was laughing. She calmed her down but her mother still seemed really upset.
Stone Cold came out at the end. He got the loudest pop of the night. We wondered if he’d shake hands with Bischoff and he did. He wasn’t smiling like Bischoff though. He was funny with the fans. He said he doesn’t know who he’ll be facing at Grapplemania but he’s excited - he wants to show why he's the toughest SOB in wrestling; he said he thinks his neck is holding up okay, he’s just concerned about it; he said he’s always wanted to join Monday Night Grappling and dreamed about it whenever he was in small promotions like BWA. Called Monday Night Grappling ‘the big time’ and held up his World Title as ‘the standard in this business’. When asked about Bischoff he said DTA – Don’t Trust Anybody. He said he’ll judge Bischoff on his actions, not words.
Bischoff then revealed his big announcement. He said Austin would enjoy it. He noted the importance of King of the Ring to Austin’s career. Austin nodded. Bischoff said this year Monday Night Grappling would launch King of the Ring with the winner facing Austin for the World Title at Grapplemania. There would be eight participants that would be whittled down to one. Austin said hell might be freezing over because it seemed like a damn good idea. He asked us if we thought so too give him a hell yeah and we did.
Bischoff said all current champs go in – Legends Champ Kerry Von Erich, and Tag Champions Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard. Paige asked was she going in and Bischoff said no. Paige pouted and the fans laughed. Bischoff said former World Champions go in too so Nick Bockwinkel (AWA) and Rey Mysterio (WWE) enter automatically.
Rey thumped the table in delight and when Rey translated what Bischoff said, Sin Cara got up and left. It looked like Sin Cara was pretty pissed off. Rey got up after him.
Bischoff said the remaining three names will be plucked from a hat so Sin Cara may still get in. Bischoff asked Paige to do the honours and told Paige’s mother she could leave. Paige’s mother left almost as annoyed as Sin Cara. Paige drew out the name of Tyler Breeze whose name was booed; Bischoff drew out the name of Dynamite Kid whose name was cheered; and Austin drew the last name which was Davey Boy Smith (also cheered). ‘Good job Sin Cara left’ said Austin to laughter.8 KOTR participants in full: Kerry Von Erich, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Nick Bockwinkel, Rey Mysterio, Tyler Breeze, Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith.Bischoff said the brackets would be assigned at random and would be revealed to the world on MNG show number one. He thanked everyone for turning out and left hurriedly. Austin and Paige stayed for a while signing autographs and taking pictures. They thanked us for coming.
Now for THAT moment. After Austin and Paige left, we’re all streaming out of the arena when Paige comes running out asking for the medics to come quick. No one knew what was going on. We then see Stone Cold being helped out on a stretcher into the ambulance and he’s screaming about his neck. I saw Tyler Breeze watching from nearby and he was WITHOUT his new glass mask so this was treated as legit serious. People looked really concerned. Bischoff went in the ambulance with him and I heard him say to one of the medics that ‘the son of a b*tch who did this was wearing a balaclava. He’s nowhere to be found.’
No idea if this was an angle or not. S’pose it got us all talking so maybe…ah I dunno. There were people here chewing their nails so a lot of real concern among us fans! Guess we’ll have to wait and see where they go with this.
Thanks,
Mark Smart
The Wrestling Observer posted the following:
Update
Eric Bischoff sent out a number of tweets following the press conference reporting that Austin’s neck is in bad shape. It may require surgery. He said someone attacked Austin from behind at the show and drove his neck into the concrete floor. Austin said as he lay there he could make out the figure of an individual wearing dark clothes and a balaclava.
Update 2
Stone Cold has refused to file a criminal report. Authorities are not happy.
Update 3
Bischoff says in the event Austin is not cleared for action then he will have no choice but to strip Austin of the title and make the King of the Ring tournament for the vacant World Championship. He stressed this was not an option he wishes to pursue. He will only pursue it if Stone Cold fails to show up at Show Number One.
Update 4
The local medical facility treating Stone Cold say he checked himself out in the middle of the night. His current whereabouts are unknown. He told one of the nurses that ‘hell is coming.’
Tune into Monday Night Grappling Show #1 which returns next week on the Boards PW network for the latest on the World Title situation, to discover the brackets for the King of the Ring tournament, and for much, much more.0 -
Welcome to the BWA pre-show
A lot has changed in the BWA during the past year and before we begin the first BWA Raw of the new season we will quickly recap the goings on of the past 12 months. One thing that has not changed though is The BWA champion Hiroshi Tanahashi, let's have a quick look back at some of the key moments of his 2014.In last years Main event for the BWA World Heavyweight Championship, Hiroshi Tanahashi proved his claim of not only being the best Japanese wrestler in the world but being simply The best in the World when he defeated Bret "The Hitman" Hart in a match that over 20% of the boards universe voted best match of 2014. Hart claimed that he was still "The Best there is, The Best there was and the best there ever would be" and that it was a fluke that Tanahashi beat him, but Bret just couldn't get the belt back no matter what he tried including forming a new Hart foundation and using the numbers advantage against the champ.
To combat against this new greater foe Tanahashi needed backup. The obvious first port of call was the King of Strong Style Shinsuke Nakamura who jumped ship from NJPW and signed for the BWA at the same time as him last year but it was the others who answered his call that shocked the world. Japanese and BWA legends (been drafted to the BWA more times than anyone has been drafted elsewhere) Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi returned in the middle of a PPV main event to not only save Tanahashi and his championship but also to form what many people have referred to as the greatest faction of all time "The Aces of the Universe".
The following month in a Survivor Series classic The Aces of the Universe defeated The Hart Foundation resulting in them having to leave the BWA. Since then Tanahashi has been going from strength to strength but perhaps his greatest ever challenge is just on the horizon as we once again head into The BWA's peak season and the road to Wrestlepalooza!
But what about the other members of the Aces of the Universe, how have they faredUpon their return the the BWA Misawa & Kobashi couldn't have been anymore over with the BWA fans and they rode a wave of momentum and support straight to championship gold. Unlike in the past however where they fought for individual titles this time as Tanahashi & Nakamura already held the other titles in the company they teamed up and eventually won the BWA tag team titles. Obviously at this point their group held all the gold and as a result the group began being likened to The Four Horsemen.
Perhaps no longer will they be called the Asian Four Horsemen though as after taking a particularly bad bump to the head during one of his Americanized (Hardcore) Strong Style match ups Nakamura started to act rather erratically. At first the others and in particular Tanahashi showed great concern for him but this just lead to him getting violent with them. Slowly Nakamura started to become what could be simply described as more and more of a d!ck whilst his behaviour became odder and odder. Eventually He parted ways with his former brothers as The King of Strong left the Aces of The Universe
However there have also been a lot of new faces in the BWA and one man who has chosen the BWA over MNG is a true legend of the squared circle Jerry "The King" Lawler, former BWA chairman (now part of the announce team) Bounty Hunter introduces Lawler to the camerasThe King: "Last year I was running the show over at MNG promotions and might I say I put on one hell of a show but yes, I have since turned my back on that company and headed to what I can only describe as "a better place to be" here in the BWA. What are my reason for joining the BWA family? well you will have to wait till BWA Raw to find that out but I can announce to you right now is that I will be the man running the show that night in my home town of Memphis!"
Huge news, The road to Wrestlepalooza V starts in Memphis, Tennessee and the man leading the way for the BWA is hometown boy Jerry "The King" Lawlor! However some eyebrows were raised when he said he had no intentions on bringing any of his former promotions wrestlers to the BWA with him and BH had to ask what all the viewers must have been thinking, What about CM Punk? and what about Big Van Vader?Lawler: "With regards CM Punk, any deal to sign him to the BWA would be complicated due to his deal with UFC and would be dealt with by the BWA owners and board of management but I can announce that the board are working on a very very big deal at the moment although I don't believe it will be completed in time for Raw in Memphis.... and with regards Vader I categorically refute any suggestion that I will be offering him a place in the BWA, that will not be happening.
This confuses the interviewer as PW forums such as boards.ie had been reporting Big Van Vader to the BWA as a done deal but before he can question that statement the new man booking the show tells him how he wants to introduce a few guys that have joined this years roster for sure starting with
The Original Shiek Who he says has signed on the dotted line to join the federation after briefly being signed to Beyond Chaos WrestlingThe Rich Syrian and Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Most Hated Wrestler of the Year truly earned that moniker at a beyond Chaos house show this year when he literally set an opponent on fire. Although officially that federation say they were happy to trade away his contract in return for some unwanted BWA stars the rumour suggests that the fireball stunt among others were done so as to force himself out of the company by creating an image of himself as being too much trouble than he was worth so that he could go to the BWA. There as one of the originators of what became the hardcore wrestling style it is believed he will look to challenge for the King of Strong Style title. Since his departure from that federation there has also been talk that his longtime tag partner and often rival Abdullah The Butcher might follow him
But He is not the only new face in town with The King now confirming that Jesse "The Body" Ventura who had been working some shows for the BWA has signed a permanent deal.Until recently Ventura had been building up quite a firm fan following in the BWA due to his flamboyant style and great Mic skills. Although he would primarily point towards his female following saying they want the things that made him famous, his nicknames "The mouth" and "The Body" and that he was more than happy to give them what they wanted calling himself the unofficial TnA champion of the world even though he would never step foot in the rink a dink federation of the same name. However, since his sueing of Taya Kyle, The wife of the slain "American Sniper" Chris Kyle became public knowledge his crowd reaction has been getting worse and worse with woman in particular turning against him and his womanizing ways
Lawlor then talks about several other stars who have joined the BWA team this year but all the fans questions which are being relayed to him seem to focus solely on rumours such as the one about how UFC Hall of famer Dan "The Beast" Severn has apparently been talking about the possibility of getting back in a wrestling ring.The former UFC Superfight Champion who was also a two time NWA World Heavyweight Championship with his first reign lasting for over four years and yet he is not considered one of the elite in professional wrestling and that has been eating away at him. He had one run with the WWE whom he blames for this saying that his time there was terribly mismanaged by the federation. He wants another shot at the big time in Pro Wrestling and supposedly is the BWA he is targeting.
When asked about this one The King once again tries to deflect by reminding the announcer that as he said earlier the BWA board and not him are the ones in discussion with the UFC.
Holy sh!t Lawlor just dropped a bombshell there, he never said earlier that there were any discussions going on with the UFC! Lawler quickly avoids follow up questions though by bringing up another much talked about topic on all the dirt sheets and one that involves the hottest property in all of sports entertainment at this moment Samoa JoeAfter holding the ROH title for a record 21months Samoa Joe headed to TNA looking for competition. When he got there The Samoan Submission Machine embarked upon an 18 month long undefeated streak. TNA tried to resign him as it was obvious he was destined for big things but despite their talk of bringing in talent like Kurt Angle to face him he realized he was better than TNA and moved on to RCW where he continued his undefeated streak and last year won their world title but still he wasn't satisfied. As a result last month when his contract with them ran out he started negotiating with the big boys, MNG, WECWF and the BWA. There have been unconfirmed reports that the WECWF have just dropped out of the running as they could not afford his demands. What is known though is that so far nobody has been able to stop Joe and he is looking to prove that that is because he is the best in the World so I wonder should the World Champion Hiroshi Tanahashi be put on notice? Is Joe BWA bound?
King says that he is very confident that he can out negotiate his old promotion but is not sure if he will be able to confirm anything in time for the show in Memphis but reassures fans that when he returns home it will be one hell of a show and that he has a number of surprises lined up for them.
That concluded the pre-taped in studio portion of the pre-show and we now join BWA roving reporter Sean Mooney who is outside the arena tonights show is emanating from talking to fans. If Lawlers UFC slip hadn't already set the Internet alight with rumours then CM Punks recent tweet which was reported everywhere would have and its in relation to this that most fans are speaking about. Here once more is how it was reported by the observerCM Punk to walk out on fledgling UFC career?!?
Rumours are swirling that Phil "CM Punk"Brooks may already have decided that he has had enough of the ultimate fighting world. The chicago native and former ROH, WWE, WECWF & MNG wrestler is shockingly being tipped for a switch back to the squared circle. What sparked all this was a simple tweet moments after Punk was subjected to a rediculous UFC questions and answers session with UFC fans whom punk later described as "Knuckle draggers". The tweet simple stated "heading to the BWA" although this reporter believes Punk may actually be doing something called trolling the internet and the fact that the tweet was accompanied by a picture of 2 tickets to a BWA Raw event may suggest too much is being read into it
No doubt his presence here tonight will only serve to pour gasoline on them and Oh my gawd I believe we can go now live to Mooney who has CM Punk Ready for interviewMooney: Punk, Punk can I just have two seconds of your time
Punk let's out a big Sigh and stops
Mooney: Can you tell me if the rumors are true? are you signing to fight with the BWA?
Punk: (lets out another very clear sigh) Look yeah, I am a UFC fighter, I am not a "Sports entertainer" (Actually does the air quotes), now please can you not bother me anymore as I try to enjoy the show.
Punk then rejoins the mass queues of people trying to enter the arena for tonights show as Mooney mutters under his breath "what a dick", We hear Punk shout "hey what did you say" as the camera fades to black and the interview ends

Oldschool Championship Wrestling:
History:In 2014, OCW opened it's doors, promising a return to traditional, straight up wrestling. I think it's fair to say we got that as, Bryan Danielson, Randy Savage, Lance Storm, Cody Rhodes and others delivered quality match after quality match.However, then GM William Regal shocked the world by turning on his beloved protege, and allowing Brian 'the Loose Cannon' Pillman to cash in his World Championship match on a weakened Danielson after a 35 minute war with Savage. Pillman holds the title to this day, and Mr.Regal has been relieved of his duties due to the controversy. M.Moneymaker, the COO has assumed a more hands on approach of the roster and day to day running of the show.Roster Overview:OCW World Heavyweight Champion Brian Pillman
A man like no other, the Loose Cannon is truly an enigma. No one can predict what he will do next, except it will be violent and dangerous for whoever is unfortunate enough to be caught in his wake. Buddy Rogers felt his wrath in 2014, now one of the biggest names in wrestling and arguably of all time is in line to face Pillman. Does he have any idea what he's in for....?John Cena:
The Champ is not here? Cena comes to OCW, obviously with massive fanfare. A 15 time world champion, Cena has proven he deserves to be the top guy, great match after great match, Cena is the No.1 star in the world of Pro Wrestling today. And he is set for a collision course on the very first episode of OCW 2015. Cena has wasted no time at all in using his guaranteed title match and it's clear he wants to be on top from the get go. Can he overcome the Loose Cannon's sheer brutality and insanity? Well Cena always overcomes the odds, but maybe this is one man who can't be measured or compared to anyone else Cena has ever faced.OCW World Heavyweight Championship Match:
Brian Pillman(c) vs John CenaSeries to determine the new OCW World Tag Team Championships:
With a new season, comes new champions. OCW has secured two legendary teams, and a young and hungry team looking to prove themselves their equals:
The Road Warriors, Hawk and Animal:
The most iconic tag team of all time. Everywhere these destroyers went, team after team fell to the Doomsday Device. Who can stop them in OCW?
Ax and Smash, Demolition
If anyone can, it's these two Goliaths. If any team can stand up to the Road Warriors power and brute force, it's Demolition. Fans will finally get to see this feud happen. But wait, there's one more team determined to make their mark in the world of tag team wrestling....
Konnor and Viktor, the Ascension:
No longer handicapped by the monkeys in Stamford, OCW has drafted the Ascension in to do what they do best. Destroy.
Both Konnor and Viktor were determined to come to a place they would be allowed to finally prove what they do not doubt for a moment. They are greatest and most dominant tag team of all time. Finally they will face the ultimate test. How will they handle it?Who will be the dominant team? Stay tuned to find out in what will surely be a violent, bloody and hard hitting series!OCW World Tag Team Championship Series: Match 1(first to two victories will be crowned champions)
The Road Warriors vs Demolition vs the AscensionKenny Omega and Kota Ibushi:
Two of the finest competitors in the world today, Ibushi may well be the finest high flier around today. Omega is one of the most interesting and unique wrestlers around today. From wrestling 9 year old girls, to pretending he's in Street Fighter, you never know what this man will produce.
Long time friends, long time rivals. They are as likely to fight together as they are to turn on each other. What will happen as they cross paths in OCW?Raven:
Dark and disturbing. Raven is a character that will murky up the waters at OCW. No one knows what his motivation is in coming to OCW. Hopefully we won't have long to find out.Ultimo Dragon:
No, those aren't for show. Ultimo Dragon is that good. One of the finest cruiserweight wrestlers who ever lived, Ultimo Dragon lives and breathes success. And he's come to OCW looking for more.Bruno Sammartino:
You want to talk about champions? Here is the champion to end all champions. No man has ever dominated Pro Wrestling like Bruno once did. And he's not finished yet. Who can possibly stop the greatest champion of all time from capturing gold again?Arnold Schwarnegger:
Persuaded by his great friend to come to OCW, you can be sure Schwarznegger will have his friends back and will play a massive role in the history of OCW.0 -

SUPREMACY
Fireworks go off on the stage as sparks rain down from the ceiling and a new season of MWA begins. We cut to our commentary team.
Dave: Welcome one and all to the newest season of MWA, coming to you live from Philadelphia. We are the home of supreme wrestling. And what a season it's gonna be, am I right Petey?
Petey: You sure are Dave. It's been a year of change here at MWA. For starters we've dropped an E from our name and there's no sign of Keiji Mutoh anywhere to be seen. In fact he hasn't been seen since his loss to The Undertaker at WrestleRama I.
Dave: Well Petey lets not pick on our former Grand Supreme Champion; we haven't seen anybody from last year's incredible show. Not since a certain 'lady' vowed to tidy this place up and fired everybody. Of course her strict PG rules meant she was forced to fire herself after a fan googled her name & found photos of her doing certain 'acts' but that's another story!
Petey: Now that you mention it, do we even know who our new boss is?
Dave: Not a clue Petey but they can't be worse than our last two. A sumo match? What kinda genius came up with that one?
Petey: Speaking of genius, it was revealed on MWA.com earlier today that tonight we welcome a living legend to our ranks. Appearing live on MWA Supremacy is none other than the hardcore legend Mick Foley! And I wonder if he'll put his name in for next week's Fatal-4-Way match to decide who will face World Champion Sycho Sid at WrestleRama II.
Dave: Gimme a break, Foley might be some sort of hardcore hero but the guy would get killed by Sycho Sid.
Mike Tyson walks out to the stage. The crowd are amazed, the commentators sit in stunned silence. Tyson soaks it all in before walking down to the ring.
Tyson: Yes yes I am the new owner of MWA..... I am the Baddest Man on the Planet and I employ the toughest SoB's in this business. When I fight someone, I want to break his will. I want to take his manhood. I want to rip out his heart and show it to him. And that's what I expect from my wrestlers.
Tyson lets the crowd cheer him before taking a seat at the commentary table.
Dave: Oh sh!t Petey, the baddest man on the planet is sitting at our table. Whatever you do, do not be yourself. I don't want you saying something stupid and getting our lights knocked out.
Petey: Allow me to be the first to welcome you to our broadcast team Mike, I am a huge fan.
Tyson: Two things. One, if you gonna kiss my ass you better be smart about it. Everything Machiavelli accomplished he did by kissing ass, but Machiavelli was smart about it. He was manipulative with it. You too obvious man. And second, don't call me Mike. I'm your boss; you talk to me like that again and I'll knock your teeth out.Tazz: "I've been thinking long and hard about what to say in this ring tonight. I normally let my suplexes do my talking but this is something I just can't ignore."
Tazz pulls a sheet of paper out of his ringgear. (Tyson: Man I do not want to know where that's been)
"This is my script for tonight."
He tears it into pieces.
"After what that jackass Shane McMahon said about me on RCW no script can explain my rage! Last year I was screwed out of the RCW title so I quit and came here, to the MWA, where real men fight! With nobody holding me back I became the Intercontinental Champion. I made RCW look small time Shane? I could never win the big one? Well McMahon.."
Tazz walks right up to the camera, his orange complexion turning some odd sun-red colour, he holds up the Intercontinental Championship & snarls
"This belt is worth more than your entire company, and it isn't even the biggest championship in MWA. Next week I'm going to be in the number 1 contender's Fatal 4 Way match for a chance to fight Sycho Sid for the MWA World Heavyweight Championship. I'm going to choke out those 3 other men and I'll be picturing your smug face when I do it. I'm going to go to WrestleRama II and I'm gonna become the new MWA World Heavyweight Championship and win the big one."
Petey: Strong words from Tazz there. It seems the new owner of RCW lit quite a fire under our Intercontinental Champion.
Tyson: Man I got no idea what any of that was about.vsAdam Cole vs Kevin SullivanSullivan tries to use his power to push Cole around but the taskmaster is too slow in his old age and he can't get near Panama's Finest. Unable to keep up any longer, Sullivan looks dead on his feet. Cole taunts him with some very weak kicks to calf and slaps to the face before spitting at Sullivan. Sullivan lunges at Cole who ducks underneath hits Sullivan a superkick to the back of the head and follows it up with a Corona Crash Reverse DDT. Cole pins him for the win.
Winner: Adam Cole
Cole gets a microphone after the match and steps back into the ring.
Cole: "This is a travesty. Adam Cole is the future of professional wrestling and yet the MWA stays stuck in the past. I should be in the Fatal-4-Way next week, I should be headlining WrestleRama II and I should be fulfilling my destiny to become the youngest MWA World Champion of all time. I have it all; the charisma, the look the ladies love, there is no match for me inside this ring. Adam Cole is the past, present & future of professional wrestling and yet the MWA are so blinded by politics that they will let anybody but me into the fatal-4-way number 1 contender's match. KENTA & Marufuji? Give me a break! Tazz? Dude looks like the result of Snooki f***ing an oompa loompa! Nobody in that match can hold a candle to Adam Cole and...”
Tazz comes running to the ring but Cole flees to the crowd where he starts to shout back at Tazz. Tazz tries to give chase but Cole runs up the steps and out the back.
Cameras cut to backstage where KENTA & Naomichi Marufuji are seen talking.KENTA: Tonight we win match against tag team champions. Tonight we earn spot in Fatal-4-Way match. Tonight we prove we are worthy of World title shot.
Tyson: Can we hire these guys some translators or somethin. If you gonna work in my company you gots ta have eloquent control of the English language.
Petey: I understood KENTA just fine Mike.
Tyson: What I tell you before Pete?
Dave: You're such a moron Petey...
Tyson: And what was them trophies about? They sure as hell aren't from my company.
Petey: Well back in Japan they're a celebrated tag team and now they're over here to transition into a more mainstream audience.
Tyson: Somebody welcome them to America and make sure they understand that I'll knock them out if I see those Chinese trophies again.vsSycho Sid vs Ken Shamrock
This match is an all out brawl which features some clumsy power moves by Sid mixed in with fierce punches and takedowns by Shamrock. After Ken misses a clothesline he gets caught with a Big Boot by Sid and tumbles over the rope, landing hard on the outside. While getting back to his feet Shamrock hears Mike Tyson on commentary telling everybody how he's got a big signing debuting next and that this signing is going into the number 1 contender's fatal-4-way match next week. Shamrock starts to argue with Tyson, telling him to call the damn match, but Ken doesn't realise the referee is counting to 10 until it's too late.
Winner: Sycho Sid via count out.
When the show returns from the break the ring announcer is standing in the middle of the ring.
Announcer: "Ladies & gentlemen, we are pleased to introduce to you the newest star of the MWA. He is 4-time World Champion & MMA superstar, “The Bigshot” BOBBY LASHLEY."Lashley: "I'm so happy to be here in Philly on front of you fine people. And how lucky are you that you get to witness the debut of an actual “Bigshot”. I've done it all; 4 World Championships, a gloried amateur wrestling career and an unrivalled MMA record. And now I'm here for all of you to enjoy for the price of a ticket and my merch. But I'm not here for selfless reasons, no I'm here to add another World title to my collection. I excel at and dominate everything that I set my sights on.... That is why I will be in the Fatal-4-Way match next week – so that I can main event WrestleRama II and become the new MWA World Heavyweight Champion."
Shamrock: "When I joined MWA I didn't expect everything to be handed to me on a silver platter. I didn't live off past glories to get ahead. I worked my ass off just to get near a World title shot and tonight I finally earned that chance; a singles match against the champion. Beating Sycho Sid would've put me in immediate contention for a title shot but my moment had to be ruined by that asshole (Shamrock points at Tyson) hyping up the debut of some “bigshot” nobody. And I'm supposed to do what exactly; sit back and watch you get a number 1 contender's match for your debut? Well f*** that!”
Shamrock drops the microphone and tackles Lashley to the ground. He throws punches wildly at Lashley's head while Lashley desperately tries to block his shots. By the time officials have dragged Shamrock off of him Lashley has a busted nose and a deep gash under his left eye. Shamrock can be heard shouting “your defence wasn't too good there was it asshole” as he's pushed into the corner. Lashley is ushered out of the ring and Mike Tyson steps away from the announce desk and enters the ring. Tyson tells Shamrock to calm down but Shamrock breaks free of security and punches Tyson across the face. Sensing a brawl about to break out referees & officials flood the ring and separate the two men. It takes 10 members of security to drag Ken Shamrock up the ramp and out of the arena.
Dave: Well the less said about that the better.
Petey: Mr Tyson do you wanna talk us through what happened before the break?
Tyson: I'm not much for talking. You know what I do. I put guys in body bags and Ken Shamrock just booked himself a room at the morgue.vsKENTA & Naomichi Marufuji vs Jimmy Snuka & Paul Orndorff
Both teams shake hands at the start of this one as KENTA & Marufuji set out to earn their place in next week's Fatal-4-Way match against the MWA Tag Team Champions. KENTA struggles against Orndorff's power early on but takes the lead against Snuka. A countered Go To Sleep leads to Marufuji coming in with a brief exciting rally culminating in him hitting Snuka with a Shiranui. He pins Snuka but Orndorff breaks the pin at 2 & a half. KENTA comes in and dropkicks Orndorff to the outside. KENTA climbs to the top turnbuckle and hits Orndorff with a Diving Double Foot Stomp. In the ring both men are on their feet; they trades kicks & punches simultaneously but when Marufuji lifts Snuka up for an Emerald Flowsion Snuka drops down his back and counters with a backbreaker. Snuka goes up top and hits a Superfly Splash and the tag champions win.
KENTA made it into the ring too late for the save. He helps Marufuji to his feet, Marufuji grabs KENTA's head and is saying something into his ear before signalling to an invisible belt around KENTA's waist. KENTA shakes his head but Marufuji looks adamant.
Tyson: I'm serious I got no clue what that little Chinese boy is saying. Get him a translator somebody.
Petey: He's Japanese not Chinese.
Tyson: What's the difference? They're from the same country.
Petey: No they're not. You're being raci-
Dave: Do yourself a favour and shut the hell up Petey.Foley: "It feels good to be back in the home of hardcore...right here in Philly." (The crowd cheer as chants of CHEAP POP CHEAP POP ring out). "Mrs Foley's baby boy did pretty good for himself when he can get a reaction like that...right here in Philly." (Chants start again). "I want to thank Mike Tyson for giving me a platform to come back to finish my career" (crowd boo). "Now don't be like that guys, I'd like to be able to walk when I'm in my 60s. I've already lost all my teeth after all. Unfortunately I'm not medically cleared to compete but I have been appointed as the new commissioner around here and in my first act I want to offer KENTA a spot in next week's Fatal-4-Way match. You impressed me out there tonight and I know your friend Marufuji would want you to keep your spot. The final place is anybody's guess at this stage. Mr Tyson informs me he has some more signings set to be finalised in the coming days, one of which may well feature in the number 1 contender's match.
The crowd erupts at the sight of Dean Ambrose. Clearly nobody was expecting him at MWA
Petey: My God, it's DEAN AMBROSE! Dean Ambrose must be the 4th contender!
Tyson: One shouldn't make presumptions and jump to conclusions Petey or else one may find one's self knocked out.
Ambrose: "Well well well, it's Mick Foley!" (crowd cheers). "I'm actually standing in a ring with the hardcore legend that is Mick Foley. You know when I was in CZW the guys used to play your matches on DVD all the time. Then we'd go out there and try our best to emulate your work as best we could to give the fans a memorable show. You really were an inspiration to so many Mick."
Foley: "Thanks Dean. That really means a lot coming from a current star such as yourself."
Ambrose acts as if he didn't hear Foley say anything.
Ambrose: "I mean you pushed your body to the absolute limits and the crowd loved you for it. It was that that won you a WWF Championship and it's the reason they still chant your name today. Now I know we're running low on time so ref don't you dare come in here to tell me to wrap it up because there's still one little thing I want Mick to do for me tonight; bleed."
Foley: (laughs) "I'm afraid that, much like my wife, my bleeding days are over Dean."
Ambrose: (laughing) "Yeah yeah that was funny. You were always funny Mick. But the thing is, I wasn't asking...."
With that Ambrose throws the microphone at Foley's head and tackles him to the ground. Ambrose is hitting his trademark 'Scrappy Doo' type punches to Foley's head. He kicks Foley to the outside and as Foley is getting to his feet Ambrose suicide dives through the middle rope, sending Foley crashing into the barricade. Ambrose picks Foley up and whips him into the ring post, busting Foley's forehead wide open. The show goes off the air with Ambrose standing on the barricade, watching the medics tend to Foley below him.0 -

Beyond Chaos Year in Review
Alot has happened since the first Beyond Chaos Pay Per View, Where Kazuchika Okadas NJD and Shane McMahon joined forces and thus screwing Bill Goldberg and Dean Ambrose in the process. Ratings for Shane McMahons promotion were high though it ultimately fell short of Monday Night Grappling’s ratings number. Nevertheless, it received critical acclaim and the Chaos Rising! PPV was loved by many wrestling fan and pundits alike. Many wondered what was next for Shane McMahons wrestling company that was now known by just Beyond Chaos....Company Ownership!
While there was much critical success was garnered from the Chaos Rising Pay Per View, Shane would soon put the company up for sale, with the official word for the sale was simply personal reasons. Shane would quickly sell up and a purchase was made by Jeff Jarrett.
Jarrett who had success running smaller companies in the past was happy to step up to the big time with Beyond Chaos. Jarrett enjoyed moderate success at first, before molding the company into his own vision. Fans enjoyed this new version of Beyond Chaos and tuned in weekly to see what was happening, with the show gaining a cult like following similar to ECW of old but on a bigger scale. Jarrett was finding great critical acclaim for his shows and fans worldwide loved it.
But soon money problems began to hamper Jarrett’s ambitions. With the company trying to keep up with more established companies such as BWA and MNG, high costs of running Beyond Chaos and keeping talent happy was a major problem. Jarrett’s critical success came at a high financial cost, and soon Beyond Chaos began to lose money on a month to month basis. Soon enough, the company would become so bad money wise that cheques began to bounce. Promises were made and not kept by Jarrett and soon talent lost patients.
With bankruptcy looming, many big stars like EC3, Goldberg and Ambrose all jumped ship to other companies respectively. With talent already gone, another hammer blow would be dealt to Jarrett when Champion Okada walked out leaving the company without a champion. With some prestige lost and star power becoming non existent, wrestling fans began to shun Beyond Chaos. With the company in turmoil, Jeff was looking in the face of financial ruin and the closure of Beyond Chaos. Desperate to find a solution Jeff Jarrett reached out to a man with considerable financial clout, Jarrett reached out to Vince McMahon!
Yes thats right, Vince McMahon. The man who claimed Jarrett Blackmailed him back in 99, the man who fired Jarrett on live TV in 01 and the man who tried to crush Jarretts former TNA promotion, Vince McMahon came to Jeff Jarretts aid. Jarrett and Vince have never seen eye to eye and it showed just how desperate Jarrett was to keep Beyond Chaos financially viable. Dave Meltzer described Jarrrett asking Vince for help as akin to” Homer Simpson crawling through a small doggy door looking for help from Mr Burns.” Jarrett, against the advice of friends, reluctantly contacted the self made millionaire McMahon and threw himself at the mercy of him. Vince listened and without hesitation agreed to invest in Beyond Chaos and has since pumped money into the company, much to the surprise of Jarrett. Jarrett says that he and Vince have buried the hatchet and both men are letting bygones be bygones.
Many wrestling pundits and fans believe that Jarrett made a deal with the devil himself but Jeff didn’t care; he was keeping his company afloat. Even Jarretts close friends such as Abyss and Matt Morgan who have been loyal to Jarrett for years since TNA, were quick to encourage Jarrett to walk away from a deal with Vince. Jarrett declined their advice and Jarrett took the money Vince invested and paid off company debts, and Beyond Chaos avoided closure. With a massive hole in the talent roster, Vince also invested money for Jarrett to hire the best talent he could with Jake Roberts, Owen Hart and Magnum TA amongst others to have been signed.
Vince also invested in production costs and the set and production values of Beyond Chaos are now on par with the likes of MNG, the front runner in Wrestling today. This Monday Night sees the re-debut of the company.
Jarrett, with Vince’s money has got the company back on track and is planning on crowning a new Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion this Monday. Though Vince has invested money, he surprisingly hasn’t been involved at all since then. Is Vince just bidding his time?? Many pundits and fans fear Beyond Chaos will go the way of ECW in 2006 if Vince interferes, with the company losing its identity and eventually being ruined anyway. Jarrett is more optimistic and has high hopes for the coming shows.Heavyweight title pictureWith Kazuchika Okada left the company, Beyond Chaos has been without a Heavyweight Champion. Now with McMahons money getting the company on track, Jarrett wants to crown a new Champion and one the re-debut show. This Monday Jarrett will hold a Championship Rumble to crown a new Heavyweight Champion with Magnum TA, Owen Hart, Nigel McGuiness and others involved.Roster Overview!
In the run up to the show , heres a brief summary of the talent in which Beyond Chaos has on its books!
Jeff Jarrett : Mr Beyond Chaos. Many see him as the man who seems to have sold his soul to keep his company financially stable. While Vince hasn’t been involved much, he knows its only a matter of time before he does but Jarrett is confident he and Vince have left their past behind them. Overall he is happy that the company is still in existence and is looking forward to running the upcoming shows.
Nigel McGuiness : The current Intercontinental Champion in Beyond Chaos. The brash English man wants to better himself and become World Champion and believes hes a favourite to become the new Beyond Chaos Champion. He believes hes superior than all and literally the best wrestler in the business.
The Midnight Express ( Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton) : Current Tag team Champions. Both in ring Veterans have done it all and no one has been able to unseat them as champs since gaining the gold. With heaps of respect and admiration, not many teams have the fan following that The Midnights Express have, though many think they are past it and its only a matter of time before they are beaten.
Owen Hart : The man who wants to conquer the big one and has a big chip on his shoulder as a result. He fears if he doesn’t win the Championship Rumble, he may never become a world Champion. As far as Owen is concerned, this Championship Rumble is Make or Break for Owen Hart.
Magnum TA : In the same boat as Owen, a great talent who has never won Championship gold. He also fears that he is Championship material and hopes to prove the naysayers wrong by winning the big one.
The Hart Dynasty (Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith): A very successful tag team but Tysons fame as a result of the Total Divas show has seemingly changed him. Hes now more vain and in some ways more concerned about fame than accomplishments in wrestling anymore, where as Harry wants nothing more than to win tag team gold and emulate his father. But many speculate there is tension within the Hart Dynasty as Tyson doesn’t seem to be on the same page as Harry.
The New Age Outlaws : 2 young cocky sons of a gun who believe they are the men to topple The Midnights Express. They want to make a name for themselves in Beyond Chaos and plan on making a splash at anyones expense to become noticed and get a chance at tag team gold.
Abyss and Matt Morgan : 2 of Jarrettts close friends who have been with him since the days of TNA. Both fear that Jarrett has sold his soul to the devil that is Vince and may rue the decision to let McMahon back him.
Jake The Snake Roberts : Jake has battled his demons been in a bad place. But thanks to his belief in God and hard work, Jake has beat those demons and got himself in the best shape of his life. Jake, like Owen and Magnum TA, is after the elusive World Heavyweight Title run that hes never been able to achieve. Jake is determined and confident that this is his destiny and truly believes that he will achieve his goal, Especially with God on his side.0 -
The Story So Far
James King: Last year, MWF opened it's doors for the first time ever. With a roster of stars our titles were claimed by some of the best in the business. However, after technical issues and results not going some wrestlers way, some left. Here is the overview of our year until this point as we gear up for our newest Pay-Per-View on the PW Boards Network, On the Verge.
Journey's End Aftermath
After both losing in the TLC match for the MWF Tag Team titles, both The Briscoes and reDragon decided to leave the company and join other promotions. Generation Next remained with the World Titles in hand. Despite being cheered for a large amount of time they turned on the MWF fanbase once they faced The Young Bucks for the title. In a back and forth match, The Young Bucks seemed on course for victory before Evans hit a low blow on one of the brothers as Strong distracted the referee. Generation Next retained the title and have been battling with The Young Bucks ever since.
Hunico was pinned by Steen in the triple threat match involving Hunico, Steen and Minoru. As per the stipulation of the match, Hunico was fired while Steen gained a title shot against the MWF champion at the next PPV. Minoru was fired later on for attacking Steen and trying to cost him his shot at the title. Steen would lose his title match against Devitt (see below for Devitt's status) and would face a post match beat-down from Devitt and Candido. However, Sami Zayn rushed out to save him. They have been a tag team since.
Jacqueline, Sable and Maria all faced off in a match for the Women's championship. Despite being the outsider, newest wrestler on the roster and least experienced, Maria walked out as the Women's champion. Both Sable and Jacqueline left the company soon after. With only one woman left in the division, the women's championship was made defunct and Maria, in protest, left the company. It is unclear whether there will be any more women signed by the MWF.
The Great Sasuke and Ultimo Dragon fought after a bitter feud. Despite trying his best to cheat, The Great Sasuke failed to defeat Ultimo Dragon in a riveting match. Happy with his time at the company, Ultimo Dragon left to pursue other challenges in different companies. The Great Sasuke has not been seen since.
In the co-main event, the MWF title was on the line. Sami Zayn faced off against new champion Prince Devitt in what would be a clash for the ages. After a hellacious match Devitt clocked Zayn with the belt when the referee was down to retain the title. Devitt would go on a run and have his last match against Kevin Steen. However, after receiving another offer from a different company he decided against renewing his contract.
Stone Cold Steve Austin faced off against Bruno Sammartino in the main event of the evening. After a great match between two brawlers Devitt came down to interfere. However, Mr. K., chairman of the company, made the save, clocking Devitt with a steel chair. Austin would hit the stunner and beat Sammartino. Feeling cheated by the chairman and owner, Sammartino left the company while Stone Cold would leave after being tempted by another company
The New Wave and direction of MWF
Mr. K. began to build for the future right after the "Journey's End" Pay-Per-View. After seeing the great match Zayn and Devitt put on it was decided to try and attract some more technical wrestlers. It started off very nicely with people like Daniel Bryan, Kazuchika Okada, The Young Bucks, Chris Benoit and Dean Malenko. The company also managed to keep great wrestlers like Zayn, Steen and Generation Next. The rebuilding had begun and it was taking a great shape.
The story until now
Mr. K. announced two matches for the "New Beginnings" Pay-Per-View. The Young Bucks would face off against Generation Next and Zayn and Steen. He also announced that the vacant MWF World Heavyweight Championship would be decided by a tournament, with the final being the main event of "New Beginnings" Pay-Per-View.
7 spots were already decided-Daniel Bryan, Kazuchika Okada, Sami Zayn, Kevin Steen, Chris Benoit, EC3 and Justin Thunder Liger. One spot was a surprise and a new signing. Daniel Bryan beat Sami Zayn in the first match while Justin Thunder Liger managed to beat EC3.
On the next show, it was announced each loser in the World Heavyweight Championship match would participate in a match at New Beginnings to crown the new International Champion. However, as Zayn was already booked in a title match he was excused with Mr. K. revealing that he would announce the 4th person in the 4-way match next week. In the 3rd tournament match Okada beat Steen. The tag team feud intensified when a 6-way tag match involving Candido and Generation Next against Daniel Bryan and The Young Bucks. Generation Next caused a DQ for their team, beating down The Young Bucks before Zayn and Steen made the save.
Mr. K. announced that Candido would be taking Zayn's spot and Dean Malenko would be taking Kevin Steen's spot. Okada found out his opponent was none other than the legendary Harley Race, putting on a great performance against the Hall of Famer but ultimately coming up short. Okada, EC3, Candido and Malenko had a stare down after the match, building the hype to their match.
The final week before New Beginnings saw Benoit face Liger and Race face Bryan. Benoit and Liger had a great match but ultimately "The Rabid Wolverine" proved too much for his opponent. Bryan and Race were supposed to face off but Generation Next attacked him before the match started. While The Young Bucks made the same, Bryan was unable to start the match and the place in the final was awarded to Race. It was announced by Mr. K. Bryan and Liger would face off in a match to show how good MWF actually was
At New Beginnings, the opening match featured Okada, Candido, Malenko and EC3 in a fatal-fourway. In a crazy match, EC3 remained hidden on the outside. Okada hit a Rainmaker on Candido only for EC3 to pounce, throwing Okada out of the ring and pinning Candido to win the title. In the other title match, The Young Bucks were taken out on the way to the ring by Generation Next. Evans and Strong faced off against Steen and Zayn in a great match. Just after hitting the Ole kick on Evans, before Matt Jackson managed to get in the ring and superkick Zayn. However, Strong rolled back in, hitting the Strong Breaker and getting the pin to pick up the titles. After the match, Steen looked annoyed at Zayn but the two men went into the back.
In the other two matches Bryan defeated Liger in a great match while Benoit and Race also put on a great match. However, near the end of the match, just when it seemed like Benoit would win, the referee was knocked down. Race would hit a low blow before hitting a diving headbutt and pinning Benoit to become the new champion.
King:Well, there you have it. And as we begin our build to our biggest Pay-Per-View of the year "On The Verge" we have the Chairman and Owner Mr. K. here to talk about everything that is happening as we begin the road to "On The Verge". Mr. K., welcome
Mr. K.: It's good to be here King
King: So, let me take you back to "Journey's End". You had a problem with Austin, that was pretty obvious. However, when Devitt interfered in the match you came down with a chair and attacked him. It cost the MWF Sammartino. Do you regret your decision?
Mr. K.: Definitely not. For a while I blindly ignored the MWF fanbase, something I shouldn't have done. I realised as I sat backstage and saw Devitt attacking their favourite superstar at the time. The boos made me realised I had to do something. I didn't give Austin or Sammartino an advantage, I just made it a fair fight. The response from the MWF fans since has been amazing. They have kept us going through the rough times.
King: Well focusing on that. The roster you have built has been incredible. Some great technical wrestlers and some great characters. Has the fanbase influenced your signings?
Mr. K.: Oh definitely! At the end of the day it's the fans that make the show. Without having some great wrestling matches we wouldn't have our fans selling out arenas every night. We also want to bring in wrestlers that our fans want to see and that get them going. I think we have done that this year!
King: Speaking of signings, are there any more in the pipeline?
Mr. K.: *laughs* Well that is something I can't really discuss at the moment. We have signed someone else and we are looking at a few more talents at the moment. What I can say though is that our fans should definitely tune in to MWF Friday Fight Night on the PW Boards Network to see what is planned for "On The Verge"
King: Well it definitely sounds like it is a must see show. Remember, you can find MWF Friday Fight Night every Friday on the PW Boards Network. We hope you tune in to find out what the Chairman has planned for this Friday Night as there is only 4 weeks, and 4 episodes, left until On The Verge!0 -

Welcome to episode 2 of CWA Fallout, we open the show with a video package of last weeks events including The Ultimate Warrior been beat down by Ivan Koloff, Nikita Koloff & Nikolai Volkfof
Next we see Kevin Nash & Scott Hall beat down on Mr.Perfect before Mr.Anderson runs down for the save
Standing in the ring is the owner and CEO of C.W.A the man only known as Campo.Campo:Last week we had 3 bouts and in 2 of those bouts we had a screwy finish, well I am here to tell you C.W.A is not about that and tonight we are going to kill 2 birds with one stone.
C.W.A need Tag Team Champions so tonight we are going to have 2 match-ups where the winner of each will face other next week to decide who the new tag team champions will be.
So tonight Koloff & Volkoff will face off against The Ultimate Warrior and James Storm plus Nash & Hall will face off against the team of Mister Mister…and if anyone interferes in these match up’s they will be suspended indefinitely
Next up tonight we have our first bout
Before the match up begin Bob Sapp joins the commentary team and proceeds to run down Mark Henry, saying that Mark Henry may be the strongest man in the World but Bob Sapp is not a man he is a super being who at Revolution will show Henry what strength really is
Meanwhile in the ring Henry could not get hold of the much faster Guerrero who uses his speed to a huge advantage , it does however take 3 drop kicks from Guerrero before Henry drops and Guerrero goes to the top rope to hit the frog splash and takes the pin
Afterwards Bob Sapp enters the ring and has a stare down with Henry, neither man backs down and the crowd is begging them to start but each just walk out the opposite sides of the ring
AD BREAK...DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME
We come back to mayhem backstage as we see The Ultimate Warrior being stretchered into an ambulance, Campo is backstage and he is clearly not happy that someone has attached the Ultimate Warrior, the commentators now wonder what will happen to the tag team bout that was due to start next
We come back to see Ivan Koloff & Nikolai Volkoff already in the ring with a big smile on their face as they look up on the big screen
James Storm comes out and looks down on Koloff & Volkoff who motion for him to get to the ring, suddenly this music hits
It's The Wildcat Chris Harris he is back with James Storm and we see the return of America's Most Wanted, they make their way to the ring and start to attack Koloff & Volkoff
The ref finally breaks it up and the match can begin officially, it would go onto to be a classic match with both teams giving it all but it would be AMW who would eventually get on top and come out the victors, they now go into next week to challenge for the C.W.A Tag titles
After the match James Storm grabs a mic.James Storm: Outsiders or Mister Mister we've got some bad news for you next week one of ye will have to face AMW for the tag titles and I have just one thing to say to ye...sorry about your damn luck
Campo is backstage on the phone
Campo:I know you have other offers from BWA and MNG but trust me those promotions are going down the pan, their owners are losing interest in their own promotions plus can they guarantee you a title shot at their PPV, Well I can....all you have to do is sign that contract
Now it is time for our main event of the evening as Nash & Hall face off against Mister Mister ( Perfect & Anderson )
[/CENTER]
Another match for the ages as Perfect shows his great in ring ability using some lovely hip tosses over hall and when Nash get's in he starts to chop on him of course Nash & Hall soon get back into it and even double team on Perfect who get's a tag in to Anderson who clears house, when the match up starts again Anderson is well on top of Hall who, but a low blow that ref misses is enough for Hall to get to Nash to tag him in , Nash comes in with a big boot but Anderson moves out of the way and is able to hit the Mic check and covers Nash, Hall jumps in but Mr.Perfect takes him out and the ref counts to 3.
Winners: Mister Mister
The Show end's with the commentators remind us that next week AMW will face off against Mister Mister for the tag team titles and they wonder who this mystery person is that Campo is trying to sign and what condition will The Ultimate Warrior be in and for that matter who attacked him.0 -

Just then the music of Muhammed Hassan plays across the arena and the fans boo like hell, Hassan comes out from behind the curtain, two other masked men surround him , They all make there way to the ring
JR: Here comes Hassan a truly great American
PJ: Are you serious
Hassan makes his way into the ring , The crowd are white hot with boos, Hassan takes the mic now and begins to speak
MH: See …..This is what I was talking about last week , No matter where I go , No matter what city, town,state I’m in if in the USA , I get booed and not John Cena booed where its mostly 30 year old men trying to cool , I mean real booed like people hate me ! Why ! It’s bull**** !, Last week was my 1st week back in a Wrestling ring in over ten years and it’s the very same …I destroyed Big E Langston a black man ,Who by the way got cheered! So no one can tell me it’s a minority thing.
MH: But no more ! You see I’ve done exactly what you expected me to do ..well sort of . You see you people and all the people across the USA see me and people like me as Terrorists, As dirty smelly muslims, All we’re only good for waiting tables or driving taxi’s over here, You rise any higher on the social ladder and people look at you funny, But no tonight these men around the ring and these 2 guys with me , We have given all our support and backing to ISIS, No more will I support the country I was born in ! They have forsaken me and my 2 brothers here
One of the masked men takes the microphone from Hassan. And looks around before speaking.
MM: Me and my friend and tag team partner , We trained together for a number of years on the US indie circuit we were one of the best if not the best team on the circuit we won gold but never got a chance in the big leagues , But no our country forsake us ! We went to Japan the Land of the rising sun and worked on the same roster as the likes of Fergal Devitt, Hiroshi Tanahashi and Shinsuke Nakakmura , In japan we won the tag titles and were rightly named the best team in the world , But we have always wanted to come back and be the dominant team in the United States, and now we have a chance , We’re going to crush anyone who gets in our way , Including Brock Lesnar
Hassan takes the microphone back
MH: You see Brock I face you next week on Rage for a place in the World Title Tournament and I just know the way thing are going no matter what the RCW officials have you’re name down to win it , so no doubt you will have a home team referee to make sure I beat you, that is why I have brought my supporters with me and will have them with me in future so no one can sneak attack me backstage to stop me , Brock as a matter..
Hassan’s speech is interrupted by Brock Lesnar’s music, Lesnar keeps tearing through the curtain the crowd nearly lifts the roof off the arena , Lesnar nails 4 of the 6 isis officers as he runs down the ring , He gets to the ring and they all catch up with him and pile on top of him , The two masked men in the ring stand with Hassan, Brock now fights he’s way out sending all of the isis officers flying , He now pulls out a chair from under the ring and begins clattering them across there heads 1 by 1 , Lesnar now makes a run under ropes but Hassan is over on top of him like a shot the other 2 makes start stomping a mudhole too
Lesnar now begins a fightback , He soon has Hassan on his shoulders he’s just about the hit the F5, But as he’s does one of masked men low blows him , He now lifts him for a suplex , the other masked man climbs to the top rope , He jumps off the toprope with a drop kick to the side and then the other guy brainbusters Lesnar !
PJ: I know that move ! Its called Chasing the Dragon
JR: It can’t be
The two men now remove the masks to reveal there identifies, There revealed to be Red Dragon Kyle O reilly and Bobby Fish
PJ: Son’s of bitchs
JR: We’ve got to head to break guys !
AD BREAK
We come back to ringside and all the men have been cleared out
PJ: Well folks up next is our next quarter final and these two haven’t been featured in RCW yet so this should be a good surprise for our fans
JR: Are you retarded ! Del Rio kicked the hell out of his dad last week
PJ I meant competing you dolt!
The camera now focuses on the video wall and a familiar man appears on it in a training montage
PJ: Steve Blackman is in RCW !!!
The crowd cheer like crazy as Steve Blackman walks out from behind the curtain he’s got a set of nunchucks with him and begins showing off as he makes his way down to the ring !
JR: Now here comes a real man
Alberto Del Rio’s music comes out to his music and he’s got a microphone in his hand
ADR: Last week you saw a fraud , A fake , A washed up overweight fraud ! Yes my father came out here last week and embarrassed himself , And now tonight the real Dos Caras will compete for the 1st time
Blackman swiftly interrupts Del Rio
SB: Hold on now a second the last time I saw you in the Dos Caras mask you were knocked on you’re ass after a couple of seconds against Mirko Cro Cop, I don’t care what version of you’re self is coming down here , Just get down here now so I can whip you’re Mexican ass
Del Rio runs into the ring and under the ropes and Blackman attacks immediately the bell rings , The two go at it hammer and thongs , Eventually Del Rio’s aggression gets the better of blackman , He begins to work the arm of blackman , Del Rio starts to get cocky now and walks around blackman almost methodically beating up Blackman
Del Rio now drop kicks blackman, Blackman goes flying through the ropes to the outside , Del rio plays to the crowd who boo the hell out of him again, Del Rio now makes his way out of the ring , He looks at Blackmans nunchuks , He now picks them up laughing as he weighs them up, The referee trys to pull them out of Del Rio’s hands , The ref now turns his back and begins to walk towards the announce table to put away the weapon and as he does a fan nails him with a kendo stick !
PJ: what the hell !!!
JR: That’s Dos Caras Senior!
Del Rio is knocked senseless, Blackman now runs straight at Del rio and levels him with a scissors kick , Del Rio is out , Blackman now rolls him into the ring , Blackman climbs to the top rope now , He goes for the diving leg drop , He misses and lands awkwardly on his knee , Del Rio see’s this and immedietly locks in a modified figure four leg lock !!, Blackman tapped out !
PJ: Daddy didn’t hit him hard enough it seems , What a recovery
JR: That’s a real Mexican
Del Rio goes over now to where his father was standing and they go face to face , Del Rio smiles at him and simply raises his hands, and walks away
PJ: A defiant Del Rio makes his way into the semi finals of our Title tournament
JR: Can you imagine A Del Rio-Hassan final ! That would be nuts !
PJ: Well we’ve got another quarter final left to go and its tonight Dolph Ziggler faces Gangrel, But 1st we’ve got a match up
The camera goes to the ring and we’ve got a small skinny white dude standing in the ring he doesn’t look much over 21,
Just then music plays
JR: Here is a monster coming down to the ring , King Haku !
PJ: He has dominated people in WCW and WWE and across the world has this grisly samoan
Haku comes through the curtain wearing a crown and a robe, He slowly ambles down to the ring never taking his eyes off his opponent in the ring , The referee removes his robes and the bell rings the kid runs at Haku and bounces off him , Haku now drags him to his feet he hits a massive clothesline almost killing the kid, Haku now gets the tongan death grip primed he pulls up the kid and locks it in straight away , The kid drops to the ground straight away and the referee counts 1…….2……..3
PJ: Academic ! what an impressive debut from Haku
JR: This guy is going to be dangerous , It’s a pity he was too late for the tournament
PJ: We got backstage now for a moment with our owner Shane Mcmahon
The camera opens again in just a blank office with a black background
Shane Mc: Welcome everyone .. I hope you are enjoying the 2nd night here on RCW, There are some things that I’m really proud of so far, and some that I’m not proud of , But those things I’m going to fix tonight our inaugural World Title Tournament’s 1st round concludes with Dolph Ziggler meeting Gangrel, Now I’ve made a decision the final will be held on week 4 of Rage right here and the new champion will make his 1st defence against an opponent of my choosing at our 1st Pay Per View the Rumble Zone
Also on tonight’s happening’s Muhammed Hassan ,I don’t give a crap who you surround you’re self with , but one thing that has marred a lot of important matchs in the past , Interference , but next week in the 1st of our Semi finals and next weeks main event Brock Lesnar will meet Muhammed Hassan in a Steel Cage match.
Another thing I will address Hugh Jackman I will guarantee you a match at the Pay Per View also if next week you sign a waiver and defeat a man of my choosing in a one on one match next week . A proving ground if ya will
And last but not least my comments last week regarding this federation , Last year we were crap , Terrible , The bookers were idiots , the writers couldn’t write a kids abc book , But that , All of that is in the past , This year I’ve come to win , We may have had **** all ratings last year but I’ll be damned if the same happens this year. I’m a Mcmahon damn it ! Even if I have to get back into that ring myself !
Camera closes
PJ : We’re back and up next we’ve got the last quarter final here we go
Camera flashes to the ringside where Gangrel makes his entrance the flames surround the entrance way , Gangrel now walks through the flames and spits out blood out of his mouth, He gets in the ring now and grabs a microphone the crowd boo
Gangrel: Last week Dolph you got in the way of my prey , But you won’t get in my way of that title
Zigglers music starts and the crowd goes nuts , Ziggler tears down the aisle and straight into the ring, They trade blows and the bell rings , Ziggler soon gets the better of gangrel, he drags him to the corner, He mounts him and goes for the ten corner punchs the crowd chants along to the punches , he reaches 7 before Gangrel pushs him off , Gangrel runs out of the corner and goes for a clothes line and misses Ziggles now dropkicks Gangrel in to the corner,
PJ: Ziggler is well on top here
JR: Yeah won’t be for long
Gangrel now begins to fight back , They tumble out of the ring and take the fight to ring side , Gangrel bounces Dolph’s face off the announce table
PJ: Woah ! I felt that one
Gangrel now rolls Dolph back into the ring , Gangrel dominates for awhile concentrating on attacking dolphs head with a variety of suplexes
PJ: Clearly Gangrel is zoning on Dolph’s head because of his history of concussions
Gangrel now drags Dolph by his hair , Gangrel pulls out that goblet out his pocket and gets ready to drink it , But all of a sudden Dolph snaps back to life and hits a massive super kick , Kicking the goblet right into Gangrel’s face,
JR: Did I see a tooth fall out there
Dolph falls down on the cover 1…..2……3.
PJ: Ziggler advances to meet Del Rio next week …Woah hold on a second
Del rio has jumped the barricade and he’s got a steel chair. He lays out Dolph with a steel chair straight to the face , Del Rio now locks on the cross arm breaker, Now Gangrel comes over and begins to put the boots him aswell
PJ: this is a mugging
Just then shane mcmahon’s music plays !
JR: He’s actually here !!!
shane takes a mic out
Shane: Del Rio I wasn’t going to do this but you have forced my hand , Next week you will face Dolph Ziggler in the 2nd Semi Final and the special stipulation for you’re semi is it’s going to be a Special Guest Referee match and the Special Guest Referee is going to be DOS CARAS SNR ! Thank you and good night
Del Rio is furious down at the ring !!
PJ: That’s all we’ve got time for folks good night
SHOW END!0 -
Lucha Va Voom Wrestling was founded in the earlier 1950’s. It all began when masked luchadors from the border in Mexico joined to meet their hard hitting Americans counterparts in California every year. It is believe Lucha Va Voom is the first ever example of cross promotional work in the wrestling business. Countless characters have graced the 2V Lucha ring over the years. Many greats have come and gone over the years but the one thing that has been constant, is the fact that, year in year out, the management always pride themselves in promoting pure entertainment and wrestling. Heritage of all the styles are showcased in 2V Lucha. It was rocked to it’s core early this year with it’s lifelong owner and investor sold the company to an Asian millionaire who has created conglomerate with his own Japanese federation (WCW). With contacts being bought out and a new batch of talent from Japan the fed has a completely fresh “reboot” feel.
Now a TRULY worldwide company 2V Lucha tours globally throughout the year(a visit to Japan shall happen in a few weeks) .In early July every year the federation returns to the company’s old heart land of the South West States for its flagship show Viva los Lucha. This year, the excitement builds as the countdown to Viva Los Lucha’s inaugural Las Vegas show has begun big time. Viva los Lucha XV from the MGM Grand is destined to be a spectacular show but there are five weeks of BeatTV to get through to see who will be fighting who? What title shall be contended? And what sort of matches will be contested at Sin City’s most anticipated debut since Elvis.
2VL produce roughly 10 PPVs a year. The BeatTV programme airs weekly every Monday on networks throughout the world. There have been murmurs that Lucha VaVoom will be launching their own network worldwide. 2VL Officials have been working and it has been touted that the worldwide launch will be within the next two/three weeks.
With the recent merger of both US and Japanese cold cut champions are hard to point out with championships being share between both federations.
Championships
The 2VL World Heavyweight Championship
The legendary title. In place since the company’s conception, the current holder is the 2VL hero Sting. He beat his old foe Keiji Mutoh (The Great Muta) at the prestigious JAPANCUP Tournament at the most recent PPV “Eastern Legends” in Osaka at the beginning of last month. The duo beat two giants in wrestling history Chono and Andre The Giant to get to the finals–. Producing a five star classic, Muta was hugely unimpressed with the defeat. He shockingly slapped Sting across the face instead of shaking his hand. Sting stayed in ring, to accept the love and glory of the adoring Japanese crowd as Muta made his way to the commentary desk and with fury and vemon told Sting he is coming back the America to get that title and he is bringing Japan’s most lethal mercenaries
PRINCE DEVITT AND HIS BULLETCLUB.
The 2VL US Championship.
Held by Rusev. A true monster since his arrival in 2VL last year. With the stateside fans of 2VL wrestling being pure bread and butter Americana they have had more than enough of the brutal tyrant and his queen of destruction Lana. With the next PPV happening on the 4th of July of all days, he has come out and said he believes there isn’t a “god fearing-red blooded American” that can take the US Title off him. See shall see.
The 2VL Tag Team Championship
The 2VL Tag Team title were dissolved since the lack of Tag Team the action in terms of Tag Team action will come from Bulletclub members Doc Gallow and Karl Anderson who by contractual agreement will defend their WCW titles at the upcoming PPV. Their cocky swagger has been in a abundance since they have claimed the titles and with their imminent arrive back in their homeland there is no doubt they will be out to ruffle a few feathers within Lucha VaVoom.
The 2VL TV Title
It was been announced at a recent post conference, to celebrated the company’s recent floating on the Japanese stock exchange a Television title will be debuted on the 11th of June edition of BeatTV. No further comment has been released on how the title will be rewarded.

Preview show here.
Tonight's show comes live from Fort Worth, Texas.
The opening TV shot sees all 8 King of the Ring participants surrounding the ring. They are Kerry Von Erich, Arn Anderson, Tully Blanchard, Nick Bockwinkel, Rey Mysterio, Tyler Breeze, Dynamite Kid and Davey Boy Smith.Commentator #1: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the brand new season of the three-time award-winning wrestling show Monday Night Grappling. I am your host Babe E. Face aka Commentator #1, and joining me is my partner Dick Heel, aka Commentator #2.
Tonight folks we're wondering three things: Who was the mystery figure that attacked our World Champion Stone Cold at the Preview Show? Will the Texas Rattlesnake show up here tonight? And what will the brackets be for the King of the Ring tournament?
Commentator #2: Austin better show up tonight because if Austin no-shows General Manager Eric Bischoff said he will strip him of the title! And look how restless these 8 men are. They wanna know who they're up against! What a night this is gonna be!
The show's entrance theme airs and following that fireworks and pyro go off as the fans cheer.
The mood quickly changes when Bischoff's theme hits; boos ring out as Eric Bischoff heads toward the ring wearing Stone Cold's World Title over his shoulder.Bischoff: (patting the title with his free hand) : I’m sure MNG fans never thought they’d see the day when this title was in my possession, am I right? My name is Eric Bischoff, and I am the General Manager of Monday Night Grappling. Not only that, but I quite literally have Monday Night Grappling's world in my hands...
Fans boo, as Bischoff holds the title aloft and parades it around the ring, showing it to each of the 8 stars.
Bischoff: This gentleman is what King of the Ring this year is all about. The greatest prize in this industry could soon be yours. All we need to discover is whether you will be fighting for a vacant Title, or whether the current title holder will show up and defend it at Grapplemania.
(Fans chant for Austin)
Bischoff: But first things first. Last week, after the preview show ended, Stone Cold Steve Austin was viciously attacked from behind by an unidentified assailant. This figure clubbed Austin in the back of the head and then used a wrestling move to drive his neck into the ground. Austin has refused to get the law involved. Right now his whereabouts are currently unknown; he has not returned any calls.
As the attack happened after I announced the King of the Ring tournament, I think there is a strong likelihood, and I've no doubt Austin would agree with me, that the culprit is standing around this ring right now.
The camera pans over each of the 8 faces.
Bischoff: I promise everyone that I am determined to catch the heinous individual who took out Steve. That is why, I, Eric Bischoff, will personally be conducting this investigation.
Bischoff motions to a lackey outside who hands him a cowboy hat.
Bischoff: You Texas fans here will appreciate this. I remember when Steve and myself were co-GMs of Raw. Steve then called himself Sheriff Austin. Well…it looks like now I'm Sheriff Bischoff! Now then, what we need to consider here is motive. Who would want to take Stone Cold Steve Austin out of action?
(Fans chant YOUUUUU as Bischoff continues)
Bischoff: Seems to me this plan, this scheme, would require not just a hell of a set of stones, but cunning, guile, intelligence. Traits that one might say are held by a man who it is well known wishes to become the first ever Grand Slam MNG World Champion in history…Mr. Nick Bockwinkel!
Bockwinkel angrily climbs into the ring.
Bockwinkel: Eric that allegation is not only ludicrous, but slanderous and downright iniquitous.
A man of my stature would not engage in something as base and barbaric as that backstage assault. Where was the finesse, Eric? The beauty? I am capable of a much better manner of attack than that. Yes, Eric, we must indeed consider motive – but let's also consider behaviour; consider a man who has taken to wearing masks of late; a man who has vowed to make a statement this year…the man with the glass mask: Tyler Breeze.
Breeze stomps into the ring; his expression hidden.
Breeze (with Zoolander voice): Hold on a second, Bullwinkle. It's true I've sworn to make an impact this year, but that attack is not my style either. A gorgeous model like myself would not dream of sullying his hands with that poor white trash, redneck Texan...
(The Texas fans boo)
Breeze: Instead I point the finger of blame at a man whose jealousy towards Austin must cut deep. A man who I believe wanted to be the undisputed star of Texas – the lone star of the ‘lone star state’. A man I say attacked Stone Cold to achieve it… Kerry von Erich!
Von Erich shakes his head and enters the ring as the Texan fans cheer.
Von Erich: Eric, we Texans respect each other. We handle our business like men and not like cowards. As the saying goes, 'don't mess with Texas!'
(fans cheer)
Von Erich: I have never had a cross word against Steve Austin. We respect one another and this punk Breeze is making an ass of himself, and I’d love to shut him up!
(crowd pops and chants for Kerry)
Bischoff: Wait a minute now; so who do you think is to blame, Kerry?
Kerry: Well Eric, what about two men who when they were here two years ago in Monday Night Grappling did sneak attack guys backstage? Men who at one point even turned on a fellow Horseman? I wonder what Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard have to say for themselves…
Arn and Tully barge into the ring.
Blanchard: That’s a bunch of crap, Eric. That stuff he's dragging up happened in the past. We had no reason to turn on Austin…well, not yet at least.
Anderson: Y'all want to point fingers? Aren't you forgetting that sorry bunch of Limeys down there? Yeah! The British Bulldogs! Those guys are no shrinking violets. Maybe the Bulldogs wanted to be top dogs, huh? And what better way than to take out the Heavyweight Champ?
Dynamite and Davey Boy enter the ring to cheers.
Davey Boy: Rubbish. As Kerry said, sneak attacks are your style. It sounds to me Arn like you’re worried me and Dynamite might be after those tag titles of yours and you’re pointing the finger ‘cos you’re scared.
Dynamite: Yeah, if you and Blanchard want to fight me and my cousin then we've got no issue with that. Let’s do this.
(the crowd cheer and all the men begin to argue and jostle as Bischoff tries to maintain control)
Bischoff: Wait a minute…there’s one man we haven’t heard from.
The camera pans down to Rey Mysterio who’s standing out there on his own.
Bischoff: Well, Rey? Was it you? I recall you saying you wanted to face Austin.
Rey shakes his head and laughs. He enters the ring as the crowd cheers.
Rey: Listen, Eric. It’s true I said I wanted Stone Cold at Grapplemania. But I don’t take out people with sneak attacks. You know me long enough to know that.
Bischoff: Well what about that amigo of yours, Rey? Sin Cara. He seemed pretty upset at the preview show.
Rey: Sin Cara is my friend, yes. I don’t believe he’s capable of that.
Bockwinkel: Maybe that’s what you want us to think.
Another brawl nearly kicks off as the men argue.
Bischoff: Enough! Enough! Damn it, we’re not getting anywhere. I've made up my mind - the show must go on. I will give Austin until the end of the night to show up. If he does not, the King of the Ring tournament will be for the vacant World Title because I will be forced to strip Stone Cold of the championship.
(fans boo)
Bischoff: Now we need to determine the brackets for the King of the Ring tournament. To show the world that I am a fair man I have brought in an impartial party from outside the company to conduct proceedings. He was a member of the 2015 Draft - until his company could no longer meet their two financial deadlines, that is - and he joins us now. Please welcome Mr. Lithium!
Up on the titantron we see Lithium and a bowl of 8 balls representing each participant.Bischoff (smiling): Thank you for your assistance, Lithium. May I commiserate with you that IWF had to close its doors this year. I had hoped it would be BWA or WECWF but what can you do?
Lithium: That’s okay, Eric. Unlike WCW, IWF can still return next year.
(the crowd laugh at Bischoff)
Bischoff (no longer smiling): Let's get on with it, shall we?
Lithium: Certainly. First name out is…Rey Mysterio; and he will face…Nick Bockwinkel.
Both men look at each other and nod.
Lithium: Next name out…Tyler Breeze; and Tyler will battle…Kerry Von Erich.
Kerry pounds his first into his hand and smiles; Tyler's expression is hidden.
Lithium: Third bout is…British Bulldog; and he will take on…Tully Blanchard.
Blanchard shakes his head as Bulldog smiles.
Lithium: Which means…Dynamite Kid takes on Arn Anderson.
The crowd cheer as both men eyeball each other from across the ring.
Commentator #1: What great matches! That last one especially should be hellacious!
The draw further reveals that the winner of Q-F 1 faces the winners of Q-F 3; thus, the winners of Q-F 2 and Q-F 4 will meet in the other semi-final.Full draw:
Q-F 1 Rey Mysterio vs Nick Bockwinkel
Q-F 2 Tyler Breeze vs Kerry Von Erich
Q-F 3 Davey Boy vs Tully Blanchard
Q-F 4 Arn Anderson vs Dynamite Kid
Bischoff thanks Lithium and tells the men to get ready for their matches. Rey and Bockwinkel are told not to go anywhere though because their match is next!KOTR Quarter-Final Match #1: Rey Mysterio vs Nick Bockwinkel
A match that goes twenty minutes and which proves an entertaining opener for the fans. The pattern of the match is Rey exploding into life in short bursts, only for Bockwinkel to continue cutting him off and grounding him down with his technical qualities.
Highlights of the match include Rey hitting a diving hurricanrana on Bockwinkel; and Bockwinkel catching Rey with a vicious dropkick as he comes off the turnbuckle.
Near the finish we see Sin Cara strolling down the aisle towards ringside.Commentator #1: What’s he doing out here?
Commentator #2: He’s obviously here to cheer on his friend. If you had any, you’d understand that.
As Rey kicks Bockwinkel down face-first on to the ropes, it looks like Rey is going for the 619. Sin Cara then steps up on the apron and begins clapping.Commentator #2: Aw what a great friend. Rooting for his buddy.
Commentator #1: Huh? Why is he on the ring apron?
Rey stops and holds out his arms. He's confused why Sin Cara is out here. From behind, Bockwinkel has recovered and spins Rey around. He kicks Rey in the gut and hits a piledriver. He makes the cover for the 1…2…3.
Winner and advancing to the semi-finals: Nick Bockwinkel
Bockwinkel celebrates as Rey picks himself up and continues to query Sin Cara as to why he’s out there. Sin Cara turns around and walks up the aisle. Is there a smirk beneath that mask of Sin Cara, the announcers wonder.
***commercial break***
Do you know if you sign up to the PW Boards Network now you can get access to all past Draft content through the search function?
***backstage*** Arn Anderson is sitting with Tully
Arn’s not happy that Kerry accused them of taking out Austin. ‘Someone should teach that Von Erich to keep his mouth shut’ says Tully. They stop speaking as someone enters. ‘Look’ says Tully, ‘it’s Tyler.’
Breeze enters still wearing his mask of glass. ‘Couldn’t help but overhear your conversation, gentlemen. As you know I’m facing a Von Erich later tonight. You also have matches. Perhaps we can help each other out tonight?'
Arn and Tully look at each other and give a nod. ‘Let’s hear what you got to say.’ The door closes on the viewer as the three men begin to discuss something behind the door.
***Elsewhere*** Bischoff can be seen on the phone
'Okay big guy we’ll talk more next week.’ He puts the phone down. Lithium enters.Lithium: I’m gonna shoot off.
Bischoff: Fine. We thank you for your assistance.
Lithium: No problem. Hell of a talent pool you’ve got here. Good sense of humour in these lads too.
Bischoff: Sense of humour? What do you mean?
Lithium: You know, the ribs they pull. I brought a load of cans of beer here with me. Some lovely stuff from back home in Ireland. Was gonna share it with the boys, but when I went back to my bag after doing the draw I found they were all gone. I mean, everything. And I brought a lot of cans with me.
Bischoff (whose face is looking very pale): All the beer was gone, you say? Are you sure you’re not just ribbing me right now?
Lithium smiles and walks off leaving Bischoff wondering if he was serious or not.Match – Sweet Saraya vs local talent
Saraya comes out accompanied by her daughter Paige, the MNG Women’s Champion. The match begins and the fans start chanting – but not for Saraya; for Paige.Commentator #1: Looks to me like Saraya isn’t impressed that the fans are focusing on her daughter rather than her.
Commentator #2: Ah you’re imagining things.
Saraya gets very aggressive with the local woman and makes short work of her, forcing her to tap out with her single leg boston crab finisher, the Knightmare.
Winner: Sweet Saraya
Saraya after the match stands on the turnbuckle. The fans give a decent cheer. Paige then comes in and stands on the other turnbuckle. The fans pop huge.
Paige clambers down and goes to raise her mother’s hand but Saraya pulls away and heads out of the ring and up the aisle leaving Paige standing there looking perplexed.Commentator #1: I’m telling you Saraya looks a bit under appreciated from what I can see.
Commentator #2: And I’m telling you you’re imagining things.
***backstage*** Sin Cara is in a locker room in his suit getting ready to leave
Rey storms in and asks what happened out there. He says this was his big chance to main event and Sin Cara just blew it for him. Sin Cara says nothing. Rey is getting annoyed. ‘Sin Cara, say something’ but Sin Cara pushes Rey away into the locker. He storms off as Rey looks on in shock.
***commercial break***KOTR Quarter-Final Match #2: Tyler Breeze vs Kerry Von Erich
Breeze for his entrance uses his original theme from NXT. He whips off the glass mask when the main beat kicks in. He films himself on the way to the ring.
Kerry’s entrance music hits but there is no sign of Von Erich. The ring announcer waits and then announces him again but there is still no sign of Von Erich. Breeze grabs the mic.Breeze: Isn’t it obvious? Von Erich is afraid to face me. He knows he has met his match in me. I am not only a better wrestler than him, but I am much more beautiful than he is. Von Erich has shown the world what a jealous coward he is. Referee! Raise my arm and declare me the victor.
The referee reluctantly counts to ten and there is still no sign of Von Erich so he has no choice but to declare Tyler Breeze the winner by forfeit.
Winner and advancing to the semi-finals: Tyler BreezeCommentator #2: Wow, how about that? Von Erich chickened out!
Commentator #1: Aw gimme a break. I’m not believing this. Something doesn’t smell right here.
***commercial break***
We see an advertisement for last year’s Grapplemania 2014 DVD with behind the scenes snippets featuring the MNG owner shooting on the successful show.MNG owner: Punk was an asshole to deal with. Same goes for Hogan. I wasn’t sure if the main event could work with those two egos and one having to lose. I had to shovel a sh*t load of money Hogan’s way just to get him to do the honours. Fans have no idea about the grief those guys gave me. Good riddance to the pair of ‘em. They’re someone else’s problem now.
***backstage segment*** Bischoff in his office. Bockwinkel enters.Bischoff (on the phone): Okay, J.R. Keep trying to reach him. Thanks.
Bockwinkel: Eric, come quick. It’s Kerry.
Bischoff gets up and follows Bockwinkel out and down the hall and we see Kerry Von Erich in a pool of blood and getting helped by medics.
Bischoff: What happened?
Bockwinkel: Someone took him out. Could it have been the masked man, Eric? Is he here again? Or what if it was…you know who. I’m concerned about this unsafe working environment.
Bischoff: Nick, trust me, I don’t know who did this but we’ll get to the bottom of it. You’re a legend here and I assure you I’ll take care of you.KOTR Quarter-Final Match #3: Tully Blanchard vs British Bulldog
Davey Boy comes out accompanied by Dynamite and their dog Matilda. Blanchard follows accompanied by Arn. The announcers spot that the fists of the Brainbusters look cut up.Commentator #1: I think we may know who was responsible for what happened to Von Erich.
The match is a great back and forth bout that goes about fifteen minutes. Blanchard dominates in the early going but Bulldog takes control in the latter stages.
Near the finish we see Davey Boy hit the running powerslam on Tully; Arn then stands on the apron looking to cause a distraction. Dynamite gives chase to Arn and the two begin brawling as the ref tries to stop them.
From down the ramp runs Tyler Breeze (without his mask) and he looks to hit Davey Boy. Matilda, though, scampers across the ring and spooks Tyler who leaves the ring screaming ‘not the face, not the face’. As Tully looks on in disbelief, Davey Boy gets back to his feet, counters a DDT attempt by Tully, and hits another running Powerslam for the 1…2…3.
Winner and advancing to the semi-finals: Davey Boy Smith
Dynamite enters the ring and raises Davey Boy’s hand as Arn and Tully throw a tantrum.
***commercial break***
***backstage*** It’s the locker room of the Bulldogs
Davey Boy says that’s part one down and now it’s time for Dynamite to join him. Dynamite says the two of them can reach the final and guarantee a Bulldog is in the main event of Grapplemania.Commentator #1: For all the rumours of disharmony within the Bulldogs, they look pretty united right now.
Commentator # 2: Victories heal all wounds.
***Elsewhere…***
Arn and Tully are backstage arguing with Tyler Breeze (now back wearing his mask). Breeze apologizes but says he didn’t count on the dog being there. He has to protect his gorgeous visage. Blanchard threatens to destroy his visage but Tyler promises to make amends in Arn’s match later with Dynamite.
Bischoff enters and then demands to know if they took out Kerry Von Erich? The three remain silent. Bischoff says they just moved to the top of the list of suspects for Austin’s masked attacker. Arn says that’s ridiculous but Bischoff says Arn and the rest can save it. Bischoff forbids any more interference tonight. Tyler shrugs his shoulders and says ‘pity, I guess you’re on your own now.’ He leaves as the Brainbusters look pissed off.KOTR Quarter-Final Match #4: Arn Anderson vs Dynamite Kid
Dynamite enters first with a very happy Davey Boy, and Matilda. Dynamite grabs a mic and says since Bischoff just ensured no one will be out here with Arn, he doesn’t want anyone out here with him either. He asks Davey Boy to leave him to it. Davey Boy nods and leaves.
Arn came out and he and Dynamite began brawling. The opening minutes were a brawl around the ring which went up into the crowd and finally back inside the ring.
The match eventually settled into a wrestling contest but with major physicality throughout. After twenty minutes of top quality wrestling action the fans were chanting ‘this is awesome’.
Highlights included a vicious European uppercut exchange; and a whole raft of huge suplexes.
At about the thirty minute mark there is a ref bump when Dynamite is Irish whipped into the ref. At that point the lights go out. The lights come back on - but only in flashes, like lightning; we can just about make out a masked individual standing in the ring wearing dark clothes and a balaclava.
This figure is clearly HUGE. He is holding a steel chair.Commentator #1: That must be him! The attacker who took out Austin. But why is he here?
The masked man points to the titantron and we see a clock which shows 3 hours; 16 minutes. He nods at the titantron and it begins counting down. The announcers ponder what is going on but as Arn and Dynamite look on confused, the lights switch out again. We then hear the sound of chair hitting skin.Commentator #2: Listen to these chair shots!
When the lights come back on the masked figure is gone and both men are writhing in agony on the ground. The ref is beginning to stir in the background as Dynamite and Arn stagger to their feet. Arn moves towards the ropes and looks outside for the masked figure; behind him a groggy Dynamite hits a backslide and gets him for the 1…2…3.
Winner and advancing to the semi-finals: Dynamite KidKing of the Ring semi-final line-up for next week:
Nick Bockwinkel vs Davey Boy Smith
Tyler Breeze vs Dynamite Kid
The announcers ponder what the hell is going on and what this timer counting down means when it vanishes off the tron. Arn is fuming in the ring, and he and Dynamite nearly get into another brawl.***commercial break***
In Bischoff’s room backstage there is pandemonium as several wrestlers and agents are panicking about what just happened. Tully Blanchard and Davey Boy are in there bemoaning what happened to Arn and Dynamite.
Bischoff says they all have to leave. He’s giving everyone the night off and security will escort all stars out of the building if they so wish. A lackey runs in and says ‘your guest has arrived’. Bischoff nods and says to the lackey to let on to the guest that everything is alright or else there will be trouble.
***Final commercial break***Main event segment: Bischoff calls out Stone Cold
Bischoff comes out wearing his sheriff hat and carrying the MNG World Title; he is smiling and trying to look calm but the announcers note he looks stressed.Bischoff: First off let me say that the intruder appears to have disappeared. We have scoured under the ring and all backstage and have found nothing. My investigation will get to the bottom of this I assure you all. Now back to the business at hand.
Stone Cold Steve Austin…(fans cheer)…if you are intent on representing this company going forward as champion, then it’s time for you to show yourself.
There is no sign of Stone Cold.
Bischoff: Austin!
Again, there is nothing.
Bischoff: I guess I am left with no choice but to strip Stone Cold Steve Austin of the heavyweight championship.
(fans scream Noooooo and begin booing)
Bischoff: I will instruct my legal team to send the necessary paperwork to Austin’s Broken Skull Ranch.
(The fans boo loudly and chant ‘we want Austin’)
Bischoff: I know you do. So do I. But Austin has made his choice. I will nevertheless do all I can to find the culprit who took out Austin as a courtesy to our cham-I mean former champion. Don’t think however that I am going to let all you fans down on my first show. Remember that time Austin no-showed on Raw and the WWE replaced him with The Rock?
Well…anything the WWE can do, Eric Bischoff can do even better. Give it up for a huge, global superstar….
Fans begin to stand up.
The one, the only…Kim Kardashian!Commentator #1: Aw for goodness sake. This is his replacement?
Commentator #2: What? She is a global star.
The Drunk in Love remix by Kanye West fills the arena and fans boo as Kim saunters down the aisle in a sharp business suit, waving to the crowd as if she were a Royal.Commentator #2: Kim saluting our fans like an American queen!
Commentator #1: And our fans responding with a one-fingered salute.Kim Kardashian: Thank you, Eric. It’s an honour for me this year to be associated with Monday Night Grabbing.
Bischoff: Grappling.
Kardashian: Uh, Grappling yes.
(Fans boo louder)
Karashian: I can’t wait to be at Grapplemania and I will work hard to promote the event worldwide.
Bischoff: Great stuff, Kim. You are a true treasure. Weren’t you once on Dancing With The Stars, Kim? Well how about you and I celebrate our business arrangement with a dance right here, right now?
(Fans scream Noooooo and begin booing)
Kardashian: Sure, Eric. That sounds wonderful. Hit some great music!
The song ‘Bound 2’ booms around the arena and the video plays on the titantron.
Note - The song is NSFW. And it's shit.
Request for readers to enhance the experience
1. Hit play for Bound 2.
2. Picture the fans in the crowd booing and holding their ears as Bischoff and Kim dance.
3. At the 1 minute mark - if you make it that far - hit the stop button and then press play on the below…

.Commentator#1: Wait a minute! It’s Stone Cold! Stone Cold is here!
The noise is deafening as Stone Cold drives into the arena and he has a mean look on his face as he exits his vehicle and marches down the aisle. He gets in the ring and raises his arms aloft on all four turnbuckles. He then grabs a microphone and gets face to face with Bischoff.Stone Cold: I think you have something that belongs to me.
(Fans cheer as Austin slowly takes the title from off Bischoff’s shoulder and drapes it over his own)
Stone Cold: You can forget about sending me any of your paperwork, Eric. Stone Cold Steve Austin is the Monday Night Grappling World Champion, and that’s all I got to say about that.
(Fans cheer)
Stone Cold: Now let’s deal with the business of the sorry son of a bitch who tried to take my ass out last week. Now Stone Cold Steve Austin has no problem with anyone wanting to whoop my ass. Hell, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again if you ain’t in this business to be the World Champion, then hell son, ya better get the hell out.
But the fact that every sumbitch back there knows I’ve had issues with my neck, and the fact that the sick bastard who did this deliberately targeted my neck, and did it with a sneak attack from behind like a damn coward, that Eric means the piece of trash who attacked me just signed his death warrant!
Now that brings me to you Eric. I thought Mick Foley’s investigation into who ran my ass down was bad, but the fact that the sorry piece of trash who assaulted me is not only out there but still showed up tonight on your show tells me you ain’t worth a damn as an investigator or a GM.
(fans cheer)
Stone Cold: This masked man wants to play mind games with Stone Cold and show a 3:16 countdown timer? Well that’s fine, but I promise the world I will open up the biggest can of whoop-ass on that jackass and make him rue the day he crossed the toughest son of a bitch in this business.
Now as far as you go, Eric, how do I know your slimy little ass ain’t involved in this somehow?
Bischoff: Listen Steve-
Stone Cold: Shut up!
(fans cheer)
Stone Cold: You’re out here with that little stupid cowboy hat on calling yourself a Sheriff? Is that supposed to impress me? What? Is that supposed to make you look like some sort of big shot? What? I think you’re pathetic. What? I said I think you’re PATHETIC.
(Fans cheer as Bischoff looks like he may soil himself)
Stone Cold: The mood I’m in son, I’m about ready to tear through every single sumbitch back there if that’s what it takes. Do you understand me? And that includes you, Eric.
(Fans cheer louder)
Bischoff: Austin…maybe you haven’t read my contract but there is a clause I specifically asked for. It stipulates that you cannot, repeat, cannot touch me unless there has been prior provocation. If you attack me without just cause then I can, and will, strip you of the title, Austin.
Now I am doing my best to find the culprit, trust me on that. I-
(Suddenly Kim Kardashian grabs the mic out of Eric’s hand)
Kardashian: Let me handle this, Eric. Now listen here Mr. Cold Stone or whatever your name is.Commentator #2: Kim, what are you doing?!
Commentator #1: Oh my God. Bischoff’s face has gone as white as a sheet.Kardashian: I’m really sorry that someone injured you and stuff but here’s the thing - you’re kind of acting like a f*cking asshole.
(Fans are jumping up and down and laughing. They sense Kim is digging a big hole for herself. Bischoff has his hands on his head. Stone Cold smiles and begins rubbing the back of his head)
Stone Cold: Let me ask you something, Kim– did you attack Stone Cold Steve Austin?
Kardashian: What? Don’t be ridiculous. I wasn’t even there at the time.
Stone Cold: So you say. But hell darling the last time I got taken out of action backstage it was by someone with a great big fat ass so maybe history’s repeating itself!
(Kim then slaps Austin hard across the face. Fans are really jumping up on their feet now. Bischoff is shaking his head from side to side)
Bischoff: Austin, please. She doesn’t know what she’s doing. I assured her representatives I’d protect her. Please…
(Fans are chanting for Austin as he remains motionless. He raises the mic to his lips)
Stone Cold: Would you call that ‘prior provocation’, Eric?
(fans cheer, as Austin turns to them)
Stone Cold: If you think Kim Kardashian just provoked Stone Cold Steve Austin, gimme a hell yeah.
Fans: Hell yeah!
Stone Cold: I wish you hadn’t done that Kim. But then again, I’m kinda glad you did…
Stone Cold connects with the Stone Cold Stunner on Kim Kardashian as the fans come unglued. Bischoff collapses to his knees in despair.Commentator #2: What has he done?! What have you done, Austin?! Bischoff’s gonna face a major lawsuit over this!
Commentator #1: Oh my God! Not even I can defend this! This is a stunner that’s going to send shockwaves right around the world!
Austin picks up the mic.Austin: I told you, Eric. I will run through every single, sorry sumbitch back there if I have to in order to find out who attacked me because in the court of Stone Cold Steve Austin, you are guilty until proven innocent.
And let everyone on the roster know…there is a war machine rolling into Monday Night Grappling next week…and its name is Stone Cold Steve Austin…and that’s the bottom line, ‘cos Stone Cold said so!Commentator #1: Oh my God! Not just the masked attacker, but the entire roster, has been put on notice by Stone Cold! We’ve got an angry rattlesnake heading our way next week and I don’t know if anyone or anywhere will be safe!
Tune in next week to find out the results of the King of the Ring tournament and to see what Austin has in store! Goodnight everybody!

Welcome to the third installment of CWA Fallout, we open the show as usual with a recap of last weeks show.
We see The Ultimate Warrior being carried away by an ambulance as CWA owner Campo is going crazy, we then see the Tag team of Mister Mister raising their hands in victory after they defeated the team of Nash & Hall
In the ring is CWA owner and CEO CampoCampo: CWA Revolution is only 3 weeks away and we still don’t know who will face off for the CWA Heavyweight Championship , The Legends Title or the tag team titles but all of that changes tonight as I can announce that the CWA Legends Champion Eddie Guerrero will defend his title against this man.
John Russ: Oh my God it's Eddie's nephew Chavo
Terry Bawler: Business is about to pick up JR
John Russ: That's my line TerryChavo: When Mr.Campo rang me last week I had a lot of offers on the table from the big guns of MNG, BWA , WECWF and others but each one of them could not offer me two things that Campo could, firstly a Title shot but more importantly than that he offered me a chance to prove that I am the greatest Guerrero of them all, for too long now I have lived in the shadow of Eddie, I am sick of being known as the other Guerrero, the one that never quite made it to the top...well at Revolution all that changes which I put down Eddie’s shoulders to the canvass for the 3 count and take that Legends title the world will finally know who the greatest Guerrero really is.AD BREAK
The magnificent Muraco was not so magnificent in this one, while he did get some offence in, Sapp was able to dispatch easy enough and picks up his 1st win in CWA.
Winner: Bob Sapp
Backstage promo by The Ultimate Warrior:Nikita Koloff….Nikita Koloff last week you attacked the Warrior while my back was turned...the Warrior felt the force of the steel pipe as you stroke it over my head again and again...BUT YOU MADE A MISTAKE KOLOFF YOU STOPPED…..You see Koloff you should have finished me while you had the chance now The Warrior has taken the energy he needed from all the little Warriors out there and at Revolution I will unleash hell on you , you are about to enter a world close to Parts Unknown and you may never return…
John Russ: Well folks its looks like we have another match up for Revolution as The Ultimate Warrior faces off against Nikita Koloff
Terry Bawler: Just hearing JR that it’s all agreed Bob Sapp and Mark Henry will also face off
John Russ: What a card this is shaping up to be Terry it’s one not to be missed that’s for sureIvan Koloff & Nikolai Volkoff vs Jobber Team
Nothing more than a squash match for the Russian team as they defeat the local jobber team with ease.
Winners: Ivan Koloff & Nikolai Volkoff
After the match Ivan Koloff grabs a mic...Koloff:Last week we were meant to face off against James Storm & The Ultimate Warrior for a chance at a shot for the CWA Tag Titles but instead the captalist in the back screwed us and without any warning we had to face a different team in AMW…We demand a title shot at Revolution
Campo comes out from the back…Campo:Who the hell do ye think ye are demanding title shots, ye are lucky to still have a job, last week I said anyone who interferes in the match ups would be suspended so ye try to circumvent this by getting Nikitta Koloff to interfere before a match up….well not only do ye not get a title shot but next week I am bringing in 2 men who are just itching to meet ye…
John Russ: Mr.Campo sure is laying down the law tonight
Terry Bawler: I have a bad feeling the Koloff & Volkoff will be regretting crossing the boss
John Russ: Terry It’s time to crown ourselves a new tag team champions
Terry Bawler: Sure is JR the favourites most be AMW with the team of Mister Mister only have 1 bout under their belts
John Russ: That might be so but don’t forget that Mister Mister were very impressive last week when they defeated the Outsiders who have also teamed together for years
A real match for the ages as AMW use all the years of experience by keeping Mr.Perfect in their side of the ring and stopping him from tagging in Anderson, but when Harris hits Perfect off the ropes he ducks down too soon allowing Perfect the kick him down and this gave Perfect that chance to tag in Anderson who comes in crazed and beats down on Harris , Storm comes in to help his partner but Perfect cuts him off, the ref is trying to get control of the match up but he only manages to get in the way as he takes a bump after Anderson whips Harris into the corner, the ref is out and all 4 men brawl , Anderson manages to hit the mic check on Harris and Perfect clotheslines Storm over the ring, Anderson goes over to shake to ref to wake him back up, the ref is just about to come around and Anderson goes over to tag Perfect and tell him to take the pin...as Perfect gets in the ring Anderson hits him with a mic check and drags Harris over and puts his arm over Perfect, the ref is now back and see's Harris covering Perfect he makes the 3 count with large boo's coming from the crowd..
We have new champions AMW..
John Russ: God damn it Anderson just screwed Perefect, He just screwed Perfect..
Terry Bawler: I'm speechless JR I don't know why Anderson would do this.
The show ends with AMW celebrating in the ring and Anderson walking up the ramp to a loud chorus of boos from the fans..

Bob Sapp vs Mark Henry

We have rounded up the latest news regarding the return of USCW to our screens. Spoilers ahead so don’t say we didn’t warn you!Extract from the USCW monthly magazine.
Introduction
USCW is back for its second year in a row and aims to deliver after a poor first year. Its flagship show Monday Night Adrenaline will continue on the RAF network but that’s the only thing in common with last year. The landscape of the USCW universe has changed quite a bit from this time last year with the roster being totally unrecognizable. Not one member of last year’s roster has survived and below you can view our new roster. The World Heavyweight Championship is now vacant after we could not come to terms with The Miz, who headed for pastures new. A look at our new roster will spring quite the few surprises.
Chairman and Co-Owner: Raf32
After a poor first year, Raf32 was desperate to turn around his failing company and so he turned to someone he despises, John Laurinaitis. Raf32 awarded Johnny a 20% stake in the company after Laurinaitis knew he was desperate and in a weak bargaining position. After some success, the company went public with Laurinaitis quietly buying up shares to raise his total controlling percentage. The crowd have felt sympathy for the creator of this product, who has not been seen since Laurinaitis acquired half his company.
General Manager and now Co-Owner: John Laurinaitis
John is the man charged with taking this company to the top of the Professional Wrestling Industry. John has advocated his People Power idea and guarantees that when it’s all said and done, Adrenaline will top the rankings. The company has performed strongly since his arrival, with USCW really becoming a strong household name in the industry. Generally seen as a heel, Johnny holds no particular favoritism for any superstar outside his henchmen, The Twin Towers. However Laurinaitis has been secretly plotting behind Raf32’s back and now owns 50% of the company after the company went public last year. He has promised to offer Raf32 a quick resolution to his ownership problem at this Monday night’s Adrenaline show.
The Twin Towers: Big Bossman and Akeem
They have been teaming together for the last year and are the current Tag Team Champions. Also offer protection to General Manager John Laurinaitis and are predominately seen as heels after been awarded the Tag Titles from the GM without having to compete for them.
The Long Island Broski’s: Zack Ryder and Curt Hawkins
The team reunited last summer and have gained serious momentum and are extremely over with the fans. Have yet to get a title shot at the Twin Towers with the champs seen to continually duck their challenge. These internet darlings got over with the USCW audience with a series of YouTube videos boosting their profile and highlighting how they have become lower carders. Are predominately seen as the #1 contenders to the Twin Towers.
The Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart:
The self-proclaimed greatest manager in the world, Hart has recently joined the USCW expressing his desire to take someone to the top of the mountain. His new client (s) has yet to be announced but Hart has hinted he will not exclusively work for one person. At recent house shows Hart with his famous megaphone in toe has angered home town fans of whatever city he seems to find himself in by trash talking the audiences.
The Bella Twins: Nikki and Brie Bella
Nikki is the current Women’s Champion, while her sister Brie has offered her support in her corner. They have used twin magic on more than one occasion to keep the title in the Bella family and now are the only two wrestling females on the roster. Again they are predominately heel characters although Brie has received the odd cheer. Can be seen to hang out with Rick Rude on occasion.
Ryback
Ryback is a massive fan favourite and his current winning streak stands at 172, one short of the legendary Bill Goldberg. Ryback receives the odd Goldberg chant here and there but has taken it all in his stride. Not to be forgotten, Ryback is the current holder of the Hardcore title.
Cody Hall
Cody has recently joined the USCW, competing so far in low profile matches. Cody has put on impressive displays but has still yet to receive a push from upper management. He has also promised big things are yet to come and to watch this space.
King Kong Bundy
Bundy has been crushing opponents since his arrival in USCW in short squash matches. However after the bell, he has continued to beat down on opponents, firmly establishing himself as one of the top heels in the company. He has demanded he be handed a title shot and seems like it will not be long until his wish is granted.
The Mega Plowers: Val Venis and Buff Bagwell
Yes you read that tag team name correctly! Joining together two weeks ago, this team has got seriously over as a baby face tag team and seem to be particularly over with the female audience members. It can’t be too long until their in line for a title shot against The Twin Towers.
Joe Henning
After a series of unfortunate attempts of showmanship, Joe has gained the nickname Mr Imperfect. Seen as a comedy act, Joe has displayed his anger at this suggestion and has promised something big will happen in the near future.
Rick Rude
Rude is the US Champion and a strong heel. On occasion he has clashed with the Mega Plowers and has made consistent attempts to woo the Ladies locker room. Rude be seen around both Bella’s from time to time. There is no #1 contender to his title at the moment so look for that to change soon.
Goldberg
Bill Goldberg has just signed for the USCW and will make his debut this Monday. It is thought he thinks quite highly of Ryback but has declined to comment on all streak related questions. Will Goldberg want to stop his streak being beat or will be involved somewhere else?
The Mega Powers: Hollywood Hulk Hogan and Macho Man Randy Savage
Just announced this morning is the signings of The Mega Powers. Individually each man ranks in the top 5 wrestlers of all time and will offer the star power that USCW failed to possess last year. Both men are expected to be strong faces and immediately go into the vacant World Heavyweight Title picture. It has yet to be seen whether they will team once again or go their own separate ways. Expect a red hot debut for both men on Monday.
More signings are expected and we here at USCW Magazine will have all the signings and information available to you as we have them.
We also have an exclusive from Mave Deltzer which states the likely destination of the World title. Look away now if you don’t want this ruined.Extract from Mave Deltzer
I’m hearing from insiders within the USCW that the top brass are very keen on giving the Macho Man a run with the title. It is thought that on this Monday nights Adrenaline that Savage will begin the start of a mega push. No word on how this news will fare for his former tag partner Hulk Hogan who surely will be unhappy coming to USCW as the #2 guy. It’s unknown whether this will lead to a heel turn for Savage but I can see it being a likely and logical direction for the USCW to go in. As always plans are subject to change, but this rumour doesn’t look like its going away anytime soon!
We at WrestleSpoilerz also have an exclusive of our own. Our reporter Phil Cabe recently caught up with the new Co-owner of USCW John Laurainitis.In the current storyline on USCW, Laurainitis has bought 50% of RAF32’s company. However there have been unconfirmed rumours that RAf32 is indeed trying to move on to pastures new and away from the professional wrestling industry. I suppose we will see storyline wise as well as in real life if RAF32 will part with his company. Funnily enough Mr Laurinaitis refused to comment on this rumour but has promised us “one more massive signing”. We at WrestleSpoilerz look forward to whoever this massive signing will be for the resurgent product that is USCW.
As always make sure you tune in on Monday night at 8/7 C to catch Adrenaline for all the latest going ons in the USCW including debuts for Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage and Goldberg, only available on the RAF network. As always we at WrestleSpoilerz will keep you all fully updated on any rumours as well as provide unrivaled coverage of the #1 company in the professional wrestling industry.

The Adrenaline theme song plays as we go over to our commentary team consisting of Mikey Roberts and Jerry Rodgers.
Jerry: Hello and welcome to USCW’s Monday Night Adrenaline and what a show we have got for you here tonight, broadcasting live from Seattle.
Mikey: It’s a pleasure to be here Jerry, it’s just a shame that with all the seats in this arena, and I get the one beside you.
Jerry: We have lots to find out tonight. Why has our GM and now Co-owner John Laurinaitis purchased up half of the company? How will former sole owner Raf32 respond? Who will be our new World Heavyweight Champion? And of course, we have got the debut of the Mega Powers here in USCW.
A familiar song plays and out comes Hulk Hogan in his famous red and yellow.
Jerry: He’s here! Hulk Hogan is in the USCW! I never thought I would see this day.
Mikey: The biggest icon in wrestling. The #1 wrestler in the industry for the #1 company in the industry. I love it!
Hogan takes a mic while pandering to the crowd. The crowd are going nuts and get a “Hogan” chant going! Hogan is amazed at the support he is receiving and thanks the fans. He goes to speak but as the chant gets louder, Hogan looks on in awe. Its eventually quietens down and the Hulkster gets on the mic.Hulk Hogan: “Well let me tell you something, brother! You know guys; it feels great to be back in this ring in the USCW. And it feels especially good to be right back here in Seattle, brother." The crowd respond with a massive cheer. "Well first things first, I guess you can say Hulkamania is running wild brother". Hogan begins to pose for the crowd which gets a great ovation. ”You know when I joined this company, my whole life turned around. When I was laid up for 90 days in the hole, soul searching after my match with CM Punk at MNG Grapplemania, I really didn’t know how I was going to handle the world of professional wrestling again. But when I walked through that curtain brother, when I pen to paper on that contract dude, I knew I wanted to go again brother.”
The crowd pops as Hogan goes to continue his speech when he is interrupted by a familiar theme.
Jerry: The crowd are going nuts! It’s the Macho Man Randy Savage! What a moment, the Mega Powers reunited!
Mikey: I think he got a bigger pop than Hogan! Can this show get any better? Yes it could actually. Mr Laurinaitis should fire you!
Jerry: Looks like the Macho Man is getting on the mic.Randy Savage: “The Mega Powers back together again in the same ring. Oh Yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!”
The crowd mark out for the Macho Man as Hogan claps for his old teammate. The pop for Savage is a bigger one than Hogan got just earlier. And then we hear the music of a less than welcome figure, Mr Laurinaitis. He makes his way down to the squared circle to a chorus of boos.
Jerry: Ah what is he doing out here? Ruining a great moment.
Mikey: Shut up you idiot. He is the owner of this company and can do anything he wants to.
Jerry: Co-Owner.Mr Laurinaitis: “Greetings all. As you all know my name is Mr John Laurinaitis, the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline and now the new Co-Owner of USCW”.
He salutes the crowd to a hostile reception.Mr Laurinaitis: “Who would have thought it? The three biggest legends in this industry in the ring at the same time?”
The crowd get a “BS” chant going.Mr Laurinaitis: “I will address that chump RAF32 later but firstly the faith of the World Heavyweight Championship must be decided. I have a match planned for each of you this evening. One is a handicap match against the Mega Plowers and the other is a spot in an over the top rope battle royale for the World title later on. I only have one spot available in the main event. Don’t you all just love People Power? I deliberated over this decision for quite some time but I have decided that the person getting the last spot into the title match later on is…… The Macho Man Randy Savage”.
The Macho Man looks sympathetic towards Hogan as Hogan looks pissed. The GM makes his way out of the ring and up the entrance ramp.Mr Laurinaitis: : “Oh and Randy, if you get involved in Hogan’s match, I will have no choice but to take back your spot in the main event.”
Randy Savage: “Oh yeah? Rules? Well rules were made to be broken. AND YOUR NECK COULD BE BROKEN! Oh Yeah!!! And as for the main event, I got one thing to say. Unjustifiably in a position I’d rather not be in but the cream will rise to the top. Oh Yeah!!!”
Hulk Hogan: “Let me tell you something John Laurinaitis, You’re a piece of s***, brother! Whatcha gonna do John Laurinaitis when Hulkamania destroys you”. The crowd pop as the two men in the ring shake hands and pander for the crowd.
Jerry: The noise here is deafening. What an announcement.
Mikey: Hogan is such a chump, shaking hands with the man who took his spot.
Jerry: That’s not how it happened Mikey and you know it.
*Commercial Break*
We see John Laurinaitis in his office accompanied by his henchmen, the Tag Champions, the Twin Towers. Laurinaitis facing the camera begins to speak.John Laurinaitis: “Greetings again all. I said I would address that piece of garbage RAF32 later and so here I am calling that coward out. How about we finish this conflict off inside the squared circle. I suggest we each put our 50% stake on the line in a match at WrestleCade. But don’t you worry, we won’t be stepping into the ring together, that would be too easy for me. How about we each select a wrestler to represent our stakes? I’ll give you until next week to respond. May the best man win”.
Jerry: I don’t like the sound of that, not one bit. Laurinaitis is definitely up to something.
Mikey: Keep your wig on. It’s a fair challenge and as our GM said, may the best man win. Id so love Mr Laurinaitis to be our full time owner. Think of the direction he would take this company in.
Suddenly Ryback barges into the GMs office. The Twin Towers step in to separate the GM from the fan favourite. Laurinaitis motions for them to make way and let Ryback speak. Every time he goes to speak, the crowd chant “Goldberg”. He just laughs it off.Ryback: “Johnny, I’m one match away from tying Bill Goldberg’s unbeaten streak, when do I get my shot at it?”
John Laurinaitis: “Next week Ryback, I have got quite the opponent for you. But first tonight, Bill Goldberg will fight his first match in USCW. You could say he is unbeaten in USCW for the past year also” as Johnny smiles.
Ryback: ”You could also say his streak is a big fat round zero ”.
The crowd boo the usual fan favourite as he exits in a hurry.
Jerry: Ryback of course showing the hunger which set him on this winning streak there. I will now pass you over to our ring announcer Scott Daniels who will announce our first match of the evening.
Scott Daniels: Let’s get ready to rumble!! Introducing first Joe Henning!
The titantron shows a new entrance package for Joe Henning as he makes his way out. . He enters the ring with a microphone in hand. There seems to be a basketball hoop set up in the ring.Joe Henning: “It’s time for a change. Starting tonight I aim to be…perfect. Watch me demonstrate an amazing piece of skill”.
Henning puts a blindfold on and picks up a basketball. Turning his back to the hoop, he attempts to throw it in. And he misses. The crowd start to laugh as Henning removes his blindfold.Joe Henning: “Shut up you idiots. I will be taken seriously. Get my opponent out here, I aim to make a statement”.
Jerry: I guess you can call him Mr Imperfect.
Mikey: There was a wind. These idiots put him off too.
Jerry: Haha good one. Let’s see who his opponent is.
Goldberg makes his way out from the back for his USCW debut.
Jerry: Was nice knowing ya Joe.
Just before the match gets started, Ryback makes his way out to the commentary table to “Goldberg” chants. Again he laughs it off and salutes the crowd. The match starts off between the newly repackaged Henning and Goldberg. Goldberg is dominating early on as Henning goes under the rope for a breeder.
Jerry: Ryback, would you say the streak has become an obsession for you?
Ryback: Of course not. As long as they feed me more, I’m happy. I don’t care about “who’s next”.
Mikey: What would you say to people who say you’re a cheap Bill Goldberg?
Ryback: How about Goldberg being a cheap Ryback?
Ryback leaves the commentary table and attacks Henning from behind, throwing him into the steel steps. Goldberg is disqualified and Henning picks up a massive win. Ryback picks up a mic.Ryback: “I guess you could say your streak continues Bill, your losing one!”
The crowd don’t like this one bit. Goldberg and Ryback stare down each other as Ryback makes his way to the back to the loudest boos of the night.
We see a steel chair backstage with a megaphone sitting on it. The crowd go wild.
Jerry: Does that belong to who I think it does?
Mikey: Oh my, business is about to pick up. I love the Mouth of the South.
Jerry: I always found him a bit obnoxious.
Mikey: It’s called having charisma you idiot, not that you would know anything about that anyways.
We have our next matchup which consists of Hulk Hogan vs The Mega Plowers. Before the match can start Val Venis gets on the mic.Val Venis:“Hello Ladies! You may have come to see the Mega Powers but tonight is all about the Mega Plowers!”
Buff and Val salute the crowd to a decently sized pop. Hogan starts off very strong picking apart Bagwell. Buff eventually gets the tag to Val Venis but he receives the same treatment from Hogan. Hogan eventually hits the big boot and leg drop on Venis for the win. After the bell we see the Tag Champs The Twin Towers make their way down to the ring. We see the Macho Man looking on from the back with a worried expression on his face. He seems to be debating whether to come out or not. The Twin Towers enter the ring and stare down Hogan but eventually turning their attention to the Mega Plowers. They start to beat on them as Hogan goes under the top rope and exits.
Jerry: Ah Hogan, help them out!
Mikey: It’s a dog eat dog world. Smart move from Hogan!
Suddenly the Macho Man’s music plays as he runs by Hogan to make the save. He clears both member of the Twin Towers and celebrates in the ring with the Mega Plowers as Hogan looks on perplexed.
*Commercial*
Here comes the Mouth of the South Jimmy Hart. Hart makes his way to the ring with his famous megaphone in his possession.Jimmy Hart speaking through his megaphone which begins to irritate people: “Seattle, it’s good to be back. I got one important question for you Seattle. Who do you think of when you think of great managers? Would you say Pete Carroll?”
The crowd erupts with a Yes chant. Hart starts smiling and gets back on the megaphone.Jimmy Hart: “I mean the Pete Carroll who blew the Super Bowl a few weeks back”.
Mikey: Haha Jimmy Hart, I love this guy!
The crowd don’t like this one bit and start to boo the Mouth of the South.Jimmy Hart” When I think of great managers, I think of those who do whatever it takes to win. I think of the great Bill Belichick”.
The crowd again grow very restless at Hart talking this through a squeaky megaphone. They get a “cheat” chant going.
Jimmy Hart: “Cheat? No. Smart? Yes! When I think of great managers, have a guess who else I think about? That’s right, I think of me, Jimmy Hart. I’ll do whatever it takes to win and bring my client to the top. Tonight, when it’s all said and done, I will be the manager of the World Heavyweight Champion. Let me introduce to you my new client, King Kong Bundy!”
Bundy makes his way out to the ring and Hart raises his arm to a chorus of boos.
Jerry: Oh my, this is quite the pairing.
Mikey: My guy Jimmy Hart will take Bundy to the very top. Finally Bundy will get the push he deserves. Jimmy Hart will bring him to the top of the mountain
Jerry: I can’t disagree with you there, partner. I’m just getting word through that Raf32, the Co-Owner of USCW will be here next week in person to answer John Laurinaitis’ challenge.
Mikey: We have a big show planned already for next week so. John Laurinaitis - Owner has a good ring to it.
Backstage the Bella twins are arguing when our GM approaches them.John Laurinaitis: “Ladies, next week the two of you have a match to compete in. Nikki, your title defence contract states that you must defend it every 30 days and I’m afraid next Monday night is the 30th day.”
Nikki Bella smugly: “As you know, I’m a fighting champion that is willing to take on all comers. However there is no other diva on the roster for me to face.”
John Laurinaitis: “Oh but there is. Your sister Brie is an active member of the roster if I’m not mistaken and next week she gets her shot at your title. Ladies, have a good day.”
The Bella’s go back to arguing when the US Champion Rick Rude turns up and separates them.Rick Rude: “Ladies, no need to fight over me, there is enough of the Ravishing One for everyone, especially after I become the World Heavyweight Champion later on tonight”.
Both Bella’s look disgusted and storm off. Rude looks puzzled.
Jerry: Big match next week set by the GM.
Mikey: People Power strikes again, I love it.
Jerry: It seems pretty clear to me that the people have no power with Mr. Laurinaitis, the power maniac.
Mikey: Just shut up you idiot. At least he cares about the brand. Where is Raf32? No response for me? Ya I thought so.
*Commercial*
Jerry: And now its time for our main event. I can’t pick a clear favourite here Mikey.
Mikey: It’s got to be King Kong Bundy for me with Jimmy Hart in his corner. He guaranteed he would manage the world champion when the show ends tonight and Jimmy is a man of his word.
The ring is full with Joe Henning, Rick Rude, King Kong Bundy, Val Venis, Zack Ryder, Curt Hawkins, Cody Hall, Buff Bagwell, Akeem and the Big Bossman as Randy Savage makes his way out to the ring. The match starts at a fast intensity with Savage flying around the ring. He eventually clashes with Bundy in the centre of the ring, where there is a trading of punches. Eventually after it looked like Savage was getting the upper hand both men are attacked by the teams of the Long Islands Broskis and the Twin Towers. Rick Rude is clashing with both members of the Mega Plowers which is one for the ladies in the audience. Bundy begins to go on a roll eliminating Ryder, Hawkins and Bagwell in quick succession. Randy Savage also tosses out Joe Henning and Cody Hall within a couple of minutes of each other. Randy Savage, King Kong Bundy, The Twin Towers, Rick Rude and Val Venis remain.
Mikey: Bundy is dominating in there. It won’t be long until he has that belt around his waist.
Jerry: Hold on a sec, I’m sure the remaining 5 wrestlers will have something to say about that.
With everyone down, Val Venis poses for the ladies. Rick Rude instantly becomes jealous to the attention Venis gets and throws him over the top rope. Rude eventually exits the ring under the bottom rope on his own free will. He is not eliminated. Not to be outdone by Venis, he makes his way over to some female audience members. He grabs a mic as the match continues.Rick Rude: ”Which one of you ladies would like your own special Rude Awakening” as he kisses a member of the audience.
The woman feints as Rude feels his hair being grabbed by Randy Savage dragging him back into the ring. The Macho Man eventually gets Rude over the top rope and quickly clotheslines him back over it again to the outside, eliminating him. We are down to four men, Randy Savage, King Kong Bundy and The Twin Towers. Realizing that they will gain an advantage as a team the Tag Champs and Bundy work together against Savage under Jimmy Hart’s instructions. After taking a beating, Savage ducks a clothesline attempt from Akeem in which sends the big man over the top rope to be eliminated. The Big Bossman grows angry and starts to stomp away on Savage, while Bundy goes under the bottom rope to get a breather under the direction of Hart.
Mikey: Smart move from Jimmy Hart! He does whatever it takes.
Jerry: Cowardly move more like. The fans don’t like it one bit and I have to agree.
Savage eventually gets the better of the Bossman and we are down to two.
Jerry: The Macho Man is overcoming incredible odds.
The fight goes on for another 20 minutes until Bundy gets control of it. He throws Savage over the top rope…….but Savage hangs on unknown to a celebrating Bundy. Hart tries to warn Bundy but he is too wrapped up celebrating. Savage gets back in and from behind tosses Bundy over the top rope to win the match.
Jerry: We got a new champion! The Macho Man has done it. What a performance!
Mikey: What a cheap move from Savage, attacking Bundy from behind.
John Laurinaitis' music plays and out comes the GM with the big gold belt around his arm.John Laurinaitis: "As you all know my name is Mr John Laurinaitis, the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline and now the new Co-Owner of USCW.Congratulations Randy, hell of a performance. Earlier on I said that only one spot was available in this battle royale. After careful deliberation, I realized i may have acted too hastily. So in the interest of fairness and by the power bestowed upon me from the people, please welcome the 12th and final participant of the battle royale………..Hollywood Hogan.”
Hogan comes out to a massive “BS” chant, now dressed in black. He starts shaking his head and it looks like he wants no piece of this. Randy Savage is staring down at him and asking him what’s going on. From nowhere Hart blindsides Macho Man and cracks his megaphone off the back of Savages head. Savage is heavily bleeding lying on the mat. He tries to pull himself up but is struggling. Hogan gets in the ring and is still shaking his head. He helps Savage get up to his feet and then hits a big boot out of nowhere. Hogan then hits his patented leg drop. He picks up Savage and throws him over the rope. He dusts down his hands to make it look light work. Hogan then taunts the crowd with his famous cant hear you. The heat for Hogan is incredible. Hart gets in the ring and raises Hogan’s arm over his head while Hogan places a foot on the fallen Macho Mans chest as we go off air.
Jerry: Why Hogan? Why? The Macho Man isnt moving!
Mikey: Hogan has seen the light. Jimmy Hart is a genius. Savage didn’t stand a chance. I love it!
Jerry: Hogan, you SOB!

Tonight on Beyond Chaos :
Who will become the new Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion as 10 men compete in a Championship Rumble Match to claim the gold?
Will Vince McMahon show up and what does his investment mean for Beyond Chaos and Jeff Jarrett.The cameras are rolling live in Nashville, Tennessee as Monday Night Chaos opens on a hot crowd.
Commentator 1 : Ladies and gentlemen welcome to the re-debut of Monday Night Chaos. The question on everyone’s lips is what’s going to happen tonight? For those who have been living under a rock for the past few weeks, Vince McMahon ....YES THE VINCE MCMAHON, has come in and invested his money into our beloved company and that is how you are able to enjoy the show tonight.
Commentator 2: I for one wish to welcome Vince to our Beyond Chaos family with open arms!
Commentator 1 : Well Jeff Jarrett is still owner as far as we know and we can confirm that Vince McMahon isn’t in the building and its not known if he will even show up. What we can tell you is that Jeff Jarrett is here and is running the show. He has announced a Championship Rumble to crown a new Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion and a lot of great talent are involved in that match.
The Nashville crowd goes wild as Jeff Jarrett appears and addresses the fans in attendance.
Jeff Jarrett : Well, firstly welcome to the re-debut of Monday Night Chaos!
The fans cheer and break into a ‘Thank You Jarrett’ chant.
Jeff Jarrett : Well lets talk about the elephant in the room firstly and talk about the status of the company. It has been a hard year for me and Beyond Chaos fell on some pretty tough times. I personally worked so hard and everyone here put a lot of effort in to keep the company going. But things got worse and the light at the end of the tunnel was getting dimmer by the day. Beyond Chaos was indeed facing closure.
The fans boo at the thought of their beloved promotion going under.
Jeff Jarrett : So I sought out help to keep Beyond Chaos going. I asked friends and family for help and they did what they could but it wasn’t enough. I was desperate folks and I was running out of ideas. Then in a Hail Mary last ditch effort to secure financial backing, I swallowed my pride and asked a man who I hadn’t spoken to in years. I asked a man who I’ve had a stormy relationship to say the least and a man who most likely still held a grudge against me. See this man fired me live on TV, this man accused me of black mailing. This man hates my guts. But he is a man who could keep Beyond Chaos going. So I reached out to Vince McMahon!
The Nashville crowd are pro Jarrett and boo at the sound of Vince McMahons name.
Jeff Jarrett : I thought to myself that Vince has the money right, and he’s done business with Hogan, with Bischoff and others over the years who he had bad blood with, once it was good business and I knew Beyond Chaos could rise from the brink and be profitable again with the right financial backing. So I rang Vince up and we met and after long talks, he agreed to invest in Beyond Chaos!
The fans seem indifferent as they don’t fully believe Vince motives are above board.
Jeff Jarrett : Now people warned me off Vince and I know what you’re all thinking but I had no other option. He was our only option. In fairness to Vince, he has so far been a pleasure to work with. He paid off our debt, invested his cash and has left me running things here. Vince now owns 51% of this company and I own the remaining 49%. Hes happy to take a backseat and Im happy to be able to run it from here.
Commentator 2 : So does that mean Vince wont be here?
Commentator 1 : Im guessing so!
Jeff Jarrett : So with that in mind, heres whats happening tonight! In this very ring later, we have a Championship Rumble match to crown a new Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion. We now have the talent to crown a true champion and that happens tonight. The 10 wrestlers competing will be: Nigel McGuinness (bigger boo) Owen Hart ( huge boo)... Timothy Thatcher (silence as not many know the young rookie) Shannon Moore (slight cheer) Shane Helms (cheers) my good friends Abyss and Matt Morgan (decent cheers) Magnum TA (Big cheer) ...Jake Roberts (bigger cheer). And a surprise mystery entrant. He says that’s all later but lets start the show now!Jarrett leaves and walks backstage. The Commentary team continue to speculate what’s in store for Beyond Chaos in relation to the Vince and Jarrett, as familiar theme music plays and the fans go wild as Jake The Snake Roberts appears to the fans who give him a standing ovation. The commentators touch on his drinking, drugs and marital problems from his past as Jake makes his entrance.
Jake grabs a mic and smiles as he appreciates the crowd who have great admiration for him.
Jake Roberts : Well its good to be back.
A ‘Lets Go Jake’ chant starts and Jake pauses for a moment taking it in.
Jake Roberts : Firstly Id like to say hi to my fans and my family in attendance...
The camera pans to the front row where we see Jakes 16 year old son, Aaron Roberts.
Jake Roberts : it has been a tough journey but I’ve made it through hell and back. I was so far down in the pits of hell that I used to stare at the devil himself in the eye. My addictions had a hold on me, stronger than any submission hold and I used to tap out every time. The domino effect of that was I lost my family, my friends and I truly was a huge bastard. The truth was that, the devil I used to stare in the eye was simply my own reflection staring back.
Jake looks to the sky as he continues.
Jake Roberts : But I found help, I found the light and I clawed my way back up that fiery canyon and said goodbye to the devil within me. Recovery was a long hard, treacherous road but I can say with my hand on my heart that I’ve made it back and I’m better than ever. I’m clean living, hard working and its made me a better person.
The fans begin to applaud Jake in a nice show of respect.
Jake Roberts : I’m in the best shape of my career and its time to be the man I should have been years ago. I should have been a Champion!
The fans cheer and agree.
Jake Roberts : I could have been a Champion but I pissed it all away. But not this time, his time I’m going to become the champion I know I can be. So by that I mean I’m throwing my name into the hat for the Championship Rumble later tonight (crowd pops) and I want one last shot at a Heavyweight Title run. Tonight I realize my potential and tonight I make my dream a reality!
Jake thanks the fans for their support, their help and their patients with him before being interrupted by The King of Harts, Owen Hart
Owen climbs in the ring and grabs a mic.
Owen Hart : Jesus Christ your pathetic. Look at you, pandering to these yokels, I’m about to puke if you keep spewing this inspirational nonsense. So you beat the bottle and your back, so what! You’re still not on my level Jake and you never will be. I’m in the Championship Rumble too and Tonight, the whole wrestling world will have no choice but to view Owen Hart as The Best There Is, The Best There Was and The Best there Ever Will Be!
This brings out Nigel McGuinness to a chorus of boo’s as hes just as unpopular as Hart. Nigel is out in his union jack attire and he’s clutching his IC title on his shoulder as he grabs a mic himself.
Nigel McGuinness : Woah, easy mate. Firstly you’re not the best, obviously I am, and secondly tonight is my night. Tonight I make history and become Beyond Chaos’s first duel champion and there is not a damn thing either of you can do about it!
Hes now interrupted himself as another music intro hits and out comes the tough son of a gun that is Magnum TA to a nice reaction.
Magnum TA : Everyone is wasting there time as its my time to shine tonight. And I’ll show no sympathy later when I’m dumping anyone I see over the top rope. But talk is cheap and I’m going to show each of you guys a preview.
Magnum rushes to the ring and all 4 men go at it. Its mayhem as all four men brawl but soon Magnum and Jake both throw McGuinness and Hart respectively and both turn around to face each other at the same time. Both men stare each other down and nod there heads in respect of each other as Hart and McGuinness lick there wounds on the outside as we go to our first ad break of many!We are back and young cocky up starts, The New age Outlaws ,B.A. Billy Gunn and Road Dogg Jessie James are out and James berates the fans on his way out, calling them slacked jaw yokels and inbred hicks and the like. The Outlaws are out for their no1 one contender’s match for the tag team belts, held by the Midnight Express. Their opponents are out next and its The Hart Dynasty, Harry Smith and Tyson Kidd. Typically, Harry Smith is looking extremely focused while Tyson Kidd, fresh from his fame exposure as a result of Total Divas, is taking selfies with fans as they make their entrance much to the displeasure of Smith.
The New Age Outlaws (Billy Gunn and Road Dogg) vs The Hart Dynasty (Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith.)
Its a nice back and forth match at first but the outlaws eventually cut the ring in half and work over Kidd. Tyson soon enough catches a break and makes the hot tag to Smith. Harry smith cleans house and he and Kidd look like in total control but during the mayhem Kidd accidentally hits Smith, knocking him out with a mean spin kick to the jaw. The Outlaws capitalize by tossing Tyson out and Smith then gets double teamed and pinned for the 1...2...3
Winners : New Age Outlaws
The Outlaws scramble to the back pleased with their win while a dazed Smith is confronted by Kidd. Kidd blames Smith for the loss, saying he should follow his lead in the ring as he is the star of the team. Kidd then shoves Smith But Harry shoves Kidd back, knocking him down. Smith walks off leaving Tyson Kidd on his ass in the ring.
We are back folks and backstage the Outlaws are celebrating being overly loud and obnoxious when they are confronted by the tag team champs, The Midnight Express, Sweet Stan Lane and Beautiful Bobby Eaton.
Road Dogg : Whoa careful Billy, its the tag team “Gramps”.
Billy Gunn : Hold on now partner, are you sure? These look like a couple of old timers. These cant be the Tag Champs, they are just two golden oldies who escaped from the home. They probably don’t remember where they are? .
(Billy then begins talking louder and slower at the Midnight Express as if they are deaf playing off the fact that they are old veterans.)
Billy Gunn : DO...YOU...KNOW....WHERE...YOU.... ARE? ..... WOULD.....YOU.........LIKE... ME.... TO ....CALL ....YOUR.... GRANDSON.... TO... BRING... YOUR.... PILLS.... OVER?
Road Dogg : WOULD...YOU ....LIKE.....ME....TO....CHECK...THE ...OBITUARIES ....PAGE......IN....THE ....NEWSPAPER....TO .........SEE....IF....YOUR ....NAMES....ARE....IN ....IT? HAHAHAHA
Stan Lane takes no guff and slaps the taste out of Rodd Doggs mouth and a brawl ensues between the two teams. The refs come in to separate the two teams with the Tag Champs getting a slight advantage.We then switch backstage to Harry Smith and up comes Tyson into the picture and pleads says we have to sort this out. Harry agrees and Tyson rejoices by saying great and says he understands and that he hopes Harry can improve and get on to the same level as him. Harry is shocked by Tysons unknowing arrogance and walks off with Tyson oblivious to how hes acting as we switch to ringside.Beyond Chaos Intercontinental Champion Nigel McGuinness is back out and strolls to ringside.
ut comes a rookie from the back to challenge McGuinness. McGuinness questions his heart before slapping the youngster and the bell rings.
Nigel McGuiness vs Walt Shadow (Local worker)
Nigel wins in impressive fashion in 3:47, total dominating his opponent before trapping him in the London dungeon for the submission win.
Winner : Nigel McGuinness
Commentator 2 : My Boy Nigel looks like a million bucks, hes my pick to win the Championship Rumble later.
Nigel throws the local guy to the outside, over the top rope, before grabbing the mic and challenging another wrestler to try hang with him?
Out comes another local guy and Nigel asks him his name. The guy replies ‘ Brad Hunter’ and Nigel tells him its his funeral.
Nigel McGuinness vs Brad Hunter (local worker)
McGuinness slaps him around pretty easy before making him tap out with the London Dungeon in 1.24.
Winner : Nigel McGuinness
Commentator 2 : Wow he just beat two guys and hes in the Rumble later. What a talent!
Nigel tosses him to the outside and begins posing with the belt as we go to commercial.
We are backstage with good friends Abyss and Matt Morgan and both men talk up their chances of winning the Championship Rumble later on. They are then asked their feelings on the situation involving good long time friend Jeff Jarrett and Vince McMahon. Morgan says they have Jarretts back and trusts what he’s doing is best for the company as we switch to ringside.We switch to another part of the locker room and we see Shannon Moore, whos recently gone through a whopping losing streak. (68-0 to be exact) Hes telling a reporter that his losing streak ends tonight. Shannon says he’s going to realize his dream. Shannon proclaims that tonight is his night and hes going to become a true winner by winning the Rumble. Shannon is overly pumped up as long time friend, Shane Helms, who is also in the Rumble, enters and wishes Moore luck.
Helms then remind him its everyman or himself in a friendly way. They fist bump as we go to an ad break.The Beyond Chaos Championship Rumble. (Entrants 10 : Owen Hart, Magnum TA, Timothy Thatcher, Jake Roberts, Nigel McGuinness, Abyss, Matt Morgan, Shane Helms, Shannon Moore + Surprise entrant )
The ring announcer explains the rules (usual Royal rumble rules) to the crowd and the camera shows Jeff Jarrett whos holding the vacant Beyond Chaos Title. The Ring Announcer introduces entrant number 1 and its Jake Roberts...
Entrant 1 : Jake The snake Roberts
Jake draws number 1 and out comes Roberts to a great reaction. Roberts salutes the fans then waits on the next entrant.......
Ring Announcer : and Entrant Number 2.......
.......
........
.............
..................
......................
................................
The music of the one and only Shawn Michaels plays and out comes a huge surprise entrant.....HBK Shawn Michaels to an even bigger pop than Jake.
Commentator 1 : What? Is that ......Yes it is, Its the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels. Has he joined Beyond Chaos? What a surprise entry!
Commentator 2 : I’m guessing so! What a coup for Jeff Jarrett and Beyond Chaos!
Shawn does his usual entrance routine and slaps a few hands of fans before stepping into the ring. Jake Roberts looks in shock as Shawn poses to the crowd.
The music cuts and Shawn and Jake meet in the centre of the ring. Shawn extends his hand to Jake and Jake returns the favour. The crowd is hot as these two favourites lock up as both ‘HBK’ and ‘DDT’ chants can be heard.
Both men try to out wrestle each other, with nether one able to hold on to the upper hand. Both men are applauded by the fans as both men then trade rights and lefts as the buzzer goes for the arrival of Entrant number 3.
Entrant 3 : Nigel McGuiness
The IC Champ is out and is booed heavily by the crowd as he slides into action. Nigel clubs both men and hits two beautiful German suplexs on each man. With both men laid out the countdown begins for Entrant 4 ....
Entrant 4 : Timothy Thatcher!
New British superstar and relative big time rookie, Timothy Thatcher strolls out. He looks psyched as he enters and bravely attacks his fellow Brit viciously with a flurry of hard hitting kicks. Nigel dodges one of Thatchers kicks and begins to beats down Thatcher before trapping him in an armbar, with Jake and Shawn both catching their breath in opposite corners. McGuinness mocks Thatcher while in the move but Thatcher some how reverses it into an armbar of his own and what followed is some old school catch as catch can style reversals with both men trying to counter the other, finishing with Nigel nearly being tossed out by the youngster.
Commentator 1 : Thatcher almost caused a huge upset there!
Commentator 2 : No punk rookie will take Nigel out, hes my pick to win!
McGuinness recovers to his feet and walks towards Timothy and slaps him. Thatcher retaliates with right hands and Nigel is rocked. Nigel desperately goes of a clothesline but Thatcher ducks and dropkicks Nigel to over the top rope as entrant number 5 is signaled for arrival.
Eliminated : Nigel McGuinness
Entrant 5 : Owen Hart
Commentator 1 : McGuinness cant believe it. Hes been taken out by the rookie!
Owen Harts music hits and he stands at the entrance ramp as Nigel is going ballistic on the outside, smashing up the Spanish announce table. Thatcher turns his attention to Owen but Nigel slides back in, throwing Thatcher out from behind.
Eliminated : Timothy Thatcher
Owen arrives and watches as McGuinness follows Thatcher and goes postal on the young Brit by beating him to a bloody pulp with the ring bell. A few referees come out to break it up as Owen starts stomping on both Jake and Shawn who are still down. Owen is vicious in his strikes with a vicious spin kick on Jake and a massive Enziguri to the temple of HBK. Entrant 4 comes out.
Entrant 6 : Shane ‘Hurricane’ Helms
Out comes Helms and Owen gets right to work over him as he enters. Its back and fourth between these two and over in the opposite corner, Jake and Michaels recover and trade blows as entrant 5 comes out
Entrant 7 : Matt Morgan
Morgan gets right to work dominating all men with powerful clotheslines and hard elbows and comes close to eliminating Jake and Shawn, but both men hang on somehow. He hits Helms with a vicious Carbon Footprint, but before he can follow up, out comes Entrant 6
Entrant 8 : Abyss
Abyss comes out and goes at it with good friend Morgan as both men know its everyman for himself. Owen recovers and tosses Helms over but the monkey like reflexes of Helms keeps him in it. Jake comes close to elimination on number of occasions as well by Shawn Michaels but manages to hang on each time. Out next is entrant 9
Commentator 2 : Maybe its going to be Jakes night, no one can seem to eliminate him.
Entrant 9 : Magnum TA
Magnum TA storms to the ring to a great reaction and is a house of fire. He knocks down Owen and Helms with vicious lariats and nails HBK with a massive powerslam. Magnum then grabs Jake by the scruff and throws him over, but Jake hangs on and only one foot touches the floor. He then spots Morgan and Abyss battling near the ropes and double clothelines both men over the top rope!
Commentator 1 : Wow! Magnum TA is cleaning house, taking out both big men in one swoop.
Eliminated : Abyss
Eliminated : Matt Morgan
Magnum TA pumps up the crowd after that as entrant 10 comes out
Entrant 10 : Shannon Moore
Shannon Moore comes out and tries to psych him self up before entering. But it all ends in doom and gloom for the Moore because as soon as he enters he’s clotheslined over the top by Magnum TA, who looks unstoppable.
Eliminated : Shannon Moore
Magnum hypes up the crowd as Shannon is in disbelief at being eliminated so quickly and easily, as the commentary team speculate if Shannon broke a record for shortest time in a rumble. Shane Helms tries to capitalise Magnum TA being distracted by dealing with Shannon but Magnum telegraphs his attack and back body drops him over the top.
Eliminated : Shane Helms
We are down to the final 4 as Jake Roberts, Shawn Michaels, Magnum TA and Owen Hart all brawl, each one trying to gain supremacy.
Commentator 1 : Magnum has eliminated Morgan, Abyss, Helms and Shannon Moore. Hes my pick!
Commentator 2 : No, Shawn and Jake seem to be hanging in there, Ill go with Shawn myself.
In a great spot, Shawn is caught mid air by Magnum TA from a cross body attempted and dumped over the top rope impressively with a Fall Away slam but Michaels hangs on my grabbing the bottom rope and miraculously stays in. Magnum cant believe it, and while hes in disbelief, Owen hart comes for him with a clothesline. But Magnum ducks and back body drops Owen over to the floor.
Eliminated : Owen Hart
Owen is screaming in agony on the outside, as it appears hes badly hurt his leg on his way out. A referee at ringside signals X for a serious injury which alerts Magnum to look over the rope with concern for Owen. But this allows Jake to sneak up on Magnum and drops him with a DDT.
As Jake gets up, Shawn hits him with flying forearm and Jake drops to the mat. Shawn nips up to his feet and as Magnum rises to his feet, Shawn hits him with a Sweet Chin Music to knock him over the top rope! We are down to 2! Jake and Shawn.
Commentator 1 : Both these men started the rumble. One of them will be crown Champion!
Jake is up and he and Shawn trade blows similar to the start of the rumble. Fans begin chanting for both men, but the Jake chants are clearly louder. Shawn gets an advantage with a thumb to the eye and drops Jake with another flying forearm. Shawn climbs the ropes and hits marvellous flying elbow drop. Shawn begins to tune up ‘the band’ as Jake tries to use the ropes to get to his feet....
Commentator 1 : Shawn’s going to win if he hits this.
Shawn stamps his foot and goes for his super kick finisher but Jake ducks and kicks Shawn in the gut....DDT! DDT by Jake and Shawns head bounces off the mat. Shawn staggers to his feet and is clotheslined by Jake, over the top to the floor.
Winner and NEW BEYOND CHAOS CHAMPION....JAKE THE SNAKE ROBERTS!
Commentator 1 : Jakes done it! Jake has won the big one! Jake is Champion!
Jakes theme plays as Roberts drops to his knees and points to the sky as the referee raises his hand. Jake is over come with emotion as Jeff Jarrett comes into the ring and with the Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Title. Shawn recovers on the outside and looks up at Jake celebrating. Shawn rolls into the ring and snatches the title from Jarretts hands.
Commentator 1 : What the hell is Shawn Michaels up to here?
The music stops as Jarrett and Roberts stare at the seemingly jealous Shawn. Shawn stares at the title as if so say ‘this should be mine’ before looking at Jake and respectfully handing Jake the title and raises Roberts hand.
Commentator 1 : What a class act by Shawn, what a show of respect.
Shawn and Jeff applaud Jake, as the new Champion climbs the turn buckle to show off his new prize. Jarrett leaves as Roberts points to his grandson in the crowd as if to say this ones for you. Jake jumps down from the turnbuckle and BAM!....Shawn Michaels nails him with a Super Kick out of nowhere.
The crowd is in shock and begin to boo as Shawn coldly and uncharacteristically stands over the body of Jake Roberts. Shawn picks up the heavyweight Title and mouths that ‘it should have been me’. Jakes 16 year old son Aaron jumps the barrier and checks on his father. Aaron then confronts Shawn who says nothing and shows no emotion before hitting Aaron Roberts with a Super kick too!
Commentator 1 : What the hell has Shawn done! Hes assaulted our New Champion and his young son.
Shawn shows no emotion and drops the belt as the commentators speculate whats gotten into Shawn as we fade out!0 -

Preview Show here.
Week 1 Show here.
Previously on Monday Night Grappling:- Tyler Breeze, Dynamite Kid, Davey Boy Smith and Nick Bockwinkel advanced to the semi-finals of the King of the Ring tournament.
- The masked attacker of Stone Cold showed up during the tournament and revealed a mysterious countdown clock showing 3 hours and 16 minutes.
- Stone Cold returned and took possession of his World Title. He delivered a Stunner to Kim Kardashian and declared he would go through the roster if he had to in order to find his attacker.
The opening shot is the countdown timer first seen last week. This time it’s showing 2 hours 45 minutes. The announcers note that falls within the time-frame of tonight’s show. Will we find the attacker’s identity tonight, they wonder?
The shows opening theme plays and fireworks and pyro go off from Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Rey Mysterio's music hits and enters the ring to a loud pop. Rey grabs a mic and says he doesn’t know why Sin Cara has been so angry with him and that he has always regarded him as a compadre, an amigo. He says he doesn’t know why Sin Cara came out during his King of the Ring qualifier against Nick Bockwinkel, nor why Sin Cara pushed him afterwards. He says he obviously has a problem with him and so he asks Sin Cara to come out so they can clear the air.
Instead, however, tag team champs Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard appear and enter the ring.
Arn says he has a more legit beef than Rey as he too was screwed during the tournament last week. Rey says Arn and Tully got what they deserved for what they did to Kerry Von Erich - taking him out backstage.
Tully gets annoyed and says no one cares about Rey or the other Mexican jumping bean and he and Arn begin attacking Rey.
Sin Cara then runs down to even the odds and fights back against the Brainbusters. The announcers wonder whether he is there to help Rey, or is he upset at the Brainbusters for insulting him.
A referee runs down and it seems we have our first match of the night.Match – Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard vs Rey Mysterio & Sin Cara (non-title)
In the opening minutes Rey and Arn have an enjoyable exchange with Rey getting the better of it in the early going. Arn tags in Tully as he is getting flustered.
Sin Cara then tags himself in with a hard slap to the back of Rey.Commentator #2: Ha, I don’t think Rey was too impressed with that!
Commentator #1: I think you’re right. It looked like Rey was doing alright in there.
At any rate Sin Cara with a nice head scissors takedown on Blanchard. It looks like Blanchard is reaching for the ropes here…Commentator #1: Wait a minute! It's Stone Cold!
Commentator #2: What the hell?! What is he doing here? We've got a match going on right now!
Stone Cold marches down to the ring looking in a mean mood. He enters the ring as Blanchard and Sin Cara stand there looking confused.
Austin hits a Stunner to Blanchard; then, as Arn runs in and attempts a clothesline, Austin ducks and gives a Stunner to Arn Anderson as well.
The referee calls for the bell.
Winner via D.Q.: Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard
Upon hearing the announced result, Sin Cara shoves Stone Cold in the chest. He’s not happy that Austin cost them the match. He shoves Austin again and begins pointing at him. Austin looks at the crowd and smiles and then gives the one-fingered salute followed by a Stunner to Sin Cara!
Rey Mysterio then enters the ring having observed everything from the turnbuckle. He grabs a mic.Rey Mysterio: Steve…bro, look I know what you’re doing esse. I understand how upset you are. But Steve this is not the way to handle things, man. You can’t just go around stunning everyone like this.
(The crowd boo)
I know you want to find the masked attacker. And judging by the size of the guy in the ring last week, I think you know that it wasn’t me. So let me say this as someone who respects you, and admires you. Please stop what you’re doing, man.
(The crowd boo once more and begin chanting for Austin, who takes the mic)
Stone Cold: Well hell son I’ve listened to what you said, and I want you to know Rey I respect you too. And I can tell you this, right from the bottom of my heart, I don’t believe you were the one who attacked me two weeks ago.
(Rey thanks Stone Cold and smiles)
Stone Cold: But with all that being said, hell son you sure did pick the wrong day to give me a sermon…
Austin then hits a Stunner to Rey and leaves the ring with all four men lying on the canvas. He marches up the aisle as his music plays.
At the top of the ramp, GM Eric Bischoff comes out. Bischoff can be heard asking what the hell Austin thinks he’s doing. He Kim Kardashian is at home because of Austin and does he have any idea how hard he had to work to not get sued by Kardashian’s representatives? During this rant, Austin just brushes past him and leaves Bischoff standing there red-faced.Commentator #2: Austin just dissed Bischoff! This rattlesnake has no respect!
***commercial break***
***backstage*** A jeep pulls up
Out of the jeep steps Kevin and David Von Erich as the fans cheer. An interviewer runs up and asks what they’re doing here. Kevin says Kerry was so badly beat up last week that he can't be here tonight as he’s at home recuperating. David says they’re here to get payback on the Brainbusters. When the interviewers says they were just attacked by Austin and have left, they say they will then have to turn their attentions towards that punk with the glass mask who set the attack up. The interviewer says Breeze is in hiding somewhere in the building. Kevin says his family enjoy hunting.
***Elsewhere…***
Bischoff is in his office on the phone shouting at security to ensure Austin doesn’t screw up the King of the Ring tournament.
The British Bulldogs enter and tell Bischoff they don’t want interference in their matches later either from masked men or angry rattlesnakes. Bischoff agrees and says that’s just what he was sorting out. He says he has a plan.
Davey Boy asks what the plan is and then there is a knock on the door. Bischoff says his plan is right outside. He says ‘Come in’ and in walks Jim Ross to a big pop from the crowd.Commentator #1: Hey it’s good ol’ J.R. Great to see him!
Commentator #2: Whaddya mean great to see him? We might be out of a job now.
J.R. warmly greets Dynamite and Davey Boy and says how much he admires them. He is less warm with Bischoff and says he is only here for the sake of his friend, Stone Cold.
Bischoff says that's fine. He says J.R. may be the only one who can rein in the Rattlesnake and allow the King of the Ring tournament to go ahead. He wants J.R. to go out on commentary and talk sense into Austin if he shows up again.
J.R. says he will do his best – not for Bischoff, but for his friend’s sake.Match – Paige vs Mystery Opponent
Paige enters to a big pop with mother Saraya following behind looking stern-faced. Paige says she was told by Eric Bischoff that her next opponent will be a non-title match against someone she knows very well but she has no idea who it is. She tells the mystery opponent to come on out…
Paige and Saraya are shocked to see Bayley who comes down to a warm pop from the fans. The announcers note that Paige and Bayley are great friends. Paige can be seen smiling at Bayley’s arrival; Saraya, however, is not happy.
Bayley takes a mic and says she couldn’t wait to join Monday night Grappling and one of the main reasons was to see Paige again. She gives Paige a big hug but Saraya breaks it up and gets in her daughter’s face. ‘You forgettin’ you’ve got a match now against this dozy bint?’
Paige looks shocked at her mother’s reaction but she nods and gives a professional handshake to Bayley as the referee gets the match under way.
The match goes 15 minutes or so and highlights include a diving back elbow from Bayley, and Paige hitting a fallaway slam off the second rope.
At the finish of the match, Bayley looks to be taking control. She hits a big bulldog on Paige and runs the ropes but from outside Saraya grabs her leg causing Bayley to stumble.Commentator #1: Hey Saraya just tripped Bayley! I don’t think Paige even saw it.
Bayley looks to the outside confused but as she turns around Paige hits her with the Ram-Paige for the 1…2…3.
Winner: Paige
At the end of the match Paige celebrates but Bayley is not happy and explains to her friend what happened. Paige is sceptical and Saraya shakes her head and tells Paige that Bayley’s lying. Bayley gets angry and looks to the fans who cheer and stick up for her as Paige seems to doubt her mother’s version of events. Saraya then gets mad and clubs Bayley down with a vicious forearm smash as the fans boo.
‘What the hell?’ says Paige, as she looks down at her fallen friend, but Saraya gets in her daughter’s face: ‘Whose side are you on?’ she asks. Paige is shocked and confused and tries to calm her mother but Saraya screams ‘You’ve changed!’, and leaves the ring and walks up the aisle to boos from the fans.
***commercial break***
Upon return we see a clip from during the commercial break showing Jim Ross joining the announcing desk. He is cordial to both commentators and shakes their hands but seems anxious about his friend, Stone Cold.
***backstage segment*** The Bulldog's locker room
Davey Boy asks has Dynamite seen Matilda. He can’t find her. Dynamite says no. Then Stone Cold enters. The fans cheer as he gets in the faces of both Bulldogs.Stone Cold: You know why I’m here.
(The Bulldogs stand up and after a long pause they nod)
Stone Cold (looking at Dynamite): I’m just gonna ask this once. Did you do it?
Dynamite: If I wanted to take anyone out, and I mean anyone, I would do it eye to eye, face to face. And if you know anything about me, you’d know that.
Stone Cold (eyeballs him a few moments, then nods): I believe what you’re saying is true. But what about him?
(Austin gets in Davey Boy’s face)
You and I have history Davey Boy…your time with the Hart Foundation. Owen, Your brother-in-law, once badly injured my neck. You’d know all about that. It has me wonderin' - was it you?
Davey Boy: Steve, we do have history. And I do know all about your neck. But an attack from behind is not my style. I know all about bad injuries and I’d never intentionally injure a fellow pro. I think you know that.
Austin eyes them up a few more moments and nods. He turns to leave when Dynamite asks him not to get involved in any of the King of the Ring matches ; he notes his match with Tyler Breeze is next. Austin says he has unfinished breeze with Breeze - but agrees to wait until after the match to settle it.
***Elsewhere***
Rey Mysterio is heading out of the building holding the back of his head. An interviewer asks where Sin Cara is and Rey says he doesn’t know. Rey has a troubled look on his face. The interviewer asks if Rey is okay and Rey says no – he holds up Sin Cara’s mask and says he just found this in Sin Cara’s dressing room.
Rey says he’s concerned for Sin Cara. A luchador like Sin Cara never takes his mask off. He leaves looking concerned.King of the Ring Semi-Final #1 – Tyler Breeze vs Dynamite Kid
Dynamite comes out first to a great pop. As we wait for Tyler we see him backstage walking to the ring wearing his glass mask and carrying his phone; he looks nervous. There is a dog’s bark and as Tyler removes his mask he spots that it’s Matilda. He tells it to ‘shoo’ and threatens to kick it as the dog scampers away. Tyler laughs but he’s not laughing as he sees Kevin and David Von Erich behind the dog, and running right towards him.
The Von Erichs catch Tyler and put a beating on him. ‘That’s for our brother you little punk!’ says Kevin as the fans cheer. ‘Good job, girl’ says David to Matilda and pats the dog on the head.Commentator #1: Looks like Matilda led the Von Erichs straight to Tyler Breeze!
Commentator #2: That damn mutt! But what about the match?
Jim Ross: Like this kid or not he has guts and a will to compete. He still wants to fight.
In the ring as the ref begins to count, Tyler staggers down and just about makes it at the count of 9.
It turns out, though, he needn’t have bothered; Dynamite immediately hits a snap suplex and goes up top and drops a diving headbutt. He makes the cover for the 1…2…3.
Winner and advancing to the King of the Ring final: Dynamite Kid
As Dynamite celebrates on the turnbuckle, Stone Cold's music hits. Austin enters the ring and acknowledges Dynamite as he passes him. Austin grabs a mic whilst Tyler is dragging himself up on the ropes. Dynamite stays in the ring to watch.
Stone Cold then eyes up Jim Ross and as Ross goes to sit up, Austin slowly shakes his head and J.R. sits back down. Austin approaches Breeze.Stone Cold: Damn son, you just got a hell of an ass whoopin'.
Breeze begins to plead with Austin.
Stone Cold: Shut up. You're pathetic. What was it you called me last week, son? I believe you said I was a 'poor white trash, Texan.' Is that what you think? What? (he points the mic towards Breeze)
Breeze: Please. I made a mistake, okay. I’m sorry.
Stone Cold: Oh you made a mistake? What? Were you involved in having my damn neck almost broken? What? Was that a mistake too? What?
Breeze: No…no…I had nothing to do with that, I swear…please…
Stone Cold (picking up Breeze’s glass mask) Hell son, don’t you know Stone Cold is all about shattering glass? Maybe I ought to shatter this sumbitch over your head, you sorry piece of trash.
(fans cheer)
Stone Cold: Nah I ain’t gonna do that. I like the fact that this thing means I don’t have to look at that face of yours so damn much, ya creepy little bastard. But let me just reach into my pocket and give you this instead…
Austin reaches inside and pulls out a middle finger and then stuns Tyler Breeze as the fans cheer.Commentator #2: This rattlesnake has struck again. Hey cowboy, that’s your cue. Get up there and stop-
At that moment, J.R. takes off his headset and is about ready to get up and go to Austin when, up on the titantron, a masked man is seen giving a kicking to somebody backstage. The camera pans back and we see the victim is Davey Boy. The camera pulls back further and we can see the masked attacker – and he is enormous.
The masked attacker then pulls off the mask to reveal…Commentator #1: It’s Rikishi! Rikishi is the masked man!
Rikishi smiles at the camera.Rikishi: Surprise, Austin. Tonight will go down in history as the night the Stone Cold truth blew up in your face.
Rikishi then lifts up Davey Boy and delivers a sick Rikishi driver on to the concrete floor.
The countdown timer then appears on the screen - 28 minutes, 15 seconds, it reads. The announcers ponder what the timer means. Stone Cold and Dynamite Kid meanwhile hurry up the aisle and backstage.
***Final commercial break***
We see Davey Boy getting helped on to a stretcher as Bischoff is standing by, flanked by around a dozen security guys. The medics tell Bischoff Davey Boy must go to hospital and is out of the King of the Ring tournament.
Bischoff says Nick Bockwinkel therefore advances to the final by forfeit. Dynamite says that's not fair. Austin says he was looking for Bockwinkel earlier and couldn’t find him. Bischoff says he hasn’t seen much of him either. Austin says this doesn’t smell right.
The medics take Davey Boy away and Dynamite goes with them. Bischoff says Dynamite has to leave Davey Boy or else Bockwinkel will win the tournament. Dynamite says he has to do what’s best and he leaves with his cousin. Bischoff turns to say something to Austin but he finds Austin has disappeared…
Main event: King of the Ring Final
Nick Bockwinkel comes out looking pleased with himself as the audience boos.
Bockwinkel grabs a mic and says this is not the way he anticipated winning the tournament but a win is a win and he asks the ref to raise his hand.
Rikishi enters to his ‘bad man’ theme and he has a mic with him.Rikishi: Congratulations, Nick. Our plan worked beautifully. Now that your win is only moments away I’ll be taking my $50,000 cheque from you.
Commentator #1: Wait a minute, is he saying what I think he’s saying?
Jim Ross: I don’t believe this!
Commentator #2: Wait a minute now. Bockwinkel looks like he doesn’t know what Rikishi’s talking about.
Rikishi: You see, ladies and gentlemen, it was Nick Bockwinkel who instructed me to take out Stone Cold Steve Austin at the Preview Show.
That’s right – I did it for the Bock. I did it for the people.
Bockwinkel is shaking his head.
Rikishi: Nick told me that Austin was too dominant in Monday Night Grappling. He was holding back legends like himself. I agreed with Nick that Austin needed to be taken out – but only for the right price. That price was 50 thousand dollars. And now Nick, I just need you to pay up and we can both go on our way.
Bockwinkel grabs a mic.
Bockwinkel: I don’t know what you’re talking about you rotund cretinous humanoid but I have never-
Stone Cold’s music hits and Austin can be seen running through the crowd and over the barricade. He hits the ring and begins hammering Bockwinkel with rights and lefts. He then raises the middle fingers and hits the stunner to Nick Bockwinkel.
From behind, though, Rikishi nails Austin in the back and then, with Austin prone on the ground, he drops his big ass on top of Austin’s chest.
Up on the titantron the countdown timer reappears - there are ten seconds left:
10...
9...
8...
7...
6...
5...
4...
3...
2...
1…
Then the lights go out.Jim Ross: Someone tell me what’s going on here!
BOOM!
There is an almighty explosion as if a bomb just went off.
The lights come back on and we see in the ring Rikishi - plus a masked figure.Commentator #1: Wait a minute! Rikishi said he was the masked man! Who the hell is this?
Rikishi smiles at the masked individual who picks up Stone Cold's World Title and drapes it over his shoulder. The masked individual then pulls off his mask to reveal…
.
.
.
.
.
.
.
.Jim Ross: Aw, sonofabitch! It’s Dynamite Kid! The masked man is Dynamite Kid! What the hell is this about?! What is this about?!
The crowd boos as Dynamite extends his hand towards Rikishi and shakes it. He instructs Rikishi to get a chair and when Rikishi hands it to Dynamite, he begins a vicious assault with the chair on both Stone Cold and Nick Bockwinkel.
Jim Ross: Damn it. this is not right! Where is the security Bischoff promised?! And where is Bischoff for that matter?! Somebody stop this! Jesus, STOP IT!
Bischoff then emerges and walks down the aisle with an angry expression on his face. He has a mic with him. He gets in the ring.
Bischoff: Dynamite! Dynamite! What are you doing, huh? And you, Rikishi! What the hell do the two of you think you are doing?
They stop and stare at him.
Bischoff: What do you two think you’re doing…having all this fun without me?
All three men then break into grins and hug each other.
Jim Ross: Oh for God’s sakes! That son of a bitch Bischoff was in on it! I should have known! The no good lying bastard!
Dynamite then continues his assault, hitting Bockwinkel and Stone Cold with dozens of chair shots.
Bischoff: Dynamite, before we get too carried away here, there is still the ‘small’ formality to deal with of the King of the Ring final. Referee! Ring the bell to start the match!
The referee stands there shocked and unsure if Bischoff is serious.
Bischoff: Ring the damn bell I said!
The referee rings the bell and Dynamite places his foot across the chest of Nick Bockwinkel. The ref has no choice but to make the count – 1…2…3.
Winner and King of the Ring: Dynamite KidJim Ross: Son of a bitch! Son of a bitch, this is not right! This is not right, damn it!
Commentator #1: Let’s think about this. Dynamite must have had his own cousin and tag partner taken out earlier tonight by Rikishi. He had Rikishi falsely accuse Bockwinkel of being involved as well. And earlier tonight when the Bulldog’s mascot led the Von Erichs to Tyler Breeze, that must have been Dynamite's doing also.
Commentator #2: And don't forget last week when the lights went out and Rikishi attacked – we thought he went after Dynamite and Arn Anderson – but the lights had gone out, remember? He must have only targeted Arn Anderson!
Jim Ross: Exactly right. It was a damn set-up all along, and Eric Bischoff was in on the whole thing.
Bischoff: Let’s here it for our new King of the Ring and the man who will face Stone Cold for the World Title at Grapplemania…
The fans boo and begin throwing garbage as Bischoff hands the mic to Dynamite.
Dynamite: Yes, it was me. I did it. I went to Eric Bischoff with a plan to take that scumbag out of action; I knew Eric and I could work together. I was the one that took Austin out at the Preview Show. I blindsided him from behind and I drove the bastid’s head into the concrete.
Surprised, are you? Think about it, who else back there was capable of an assault like that but me? Who else was sadistic enough to be able to do that to another human being? I did it, and I would do it again. I didn’t care if I ended his career or not.
I brought in Rikishi to throw Austin off the scent, knowing he would be perfect. I had Rikishi take out that selfish cousin of mine Davey Boy too. He had it coming. Austin looked me in the eye and believed the lies I told him. Silly boy, Steve. You forgot about DTA – don’t trust anybody.
You people want to know why I did it?
(Fans scream yes)
Jim Ross: Yes! Tell us why, damn it. WHY?!
Dynamite: Since the first day I came into this company I’ve had to put up with Steve Austin calling himself the ‘toughest S.O.B. in this business’. I’ve had to listen to people over the years like that pig down there (he points at J.R. as Bischoff laughs) calling Austin ‘the toughest S.O.B. in this business.’
Read my lips very carefully, people – I am the toughest son of a bitch in this business. You hear me? I am. And I’m the best fookin’ wrestla that ever laced up a pair of boots. Not Stone Cold, not my old, so-called ‘friend’ Bret Hart, but me.
Why don’t I get the respect I deserve, eh? You praise the Stone Colds, the Bret Harts, but what about me?
All throughout the Draft everyone was wondering ‘Who will face Stone Cold? Who will get Austin at Grapplemania?’ I’m the greatest fookin’ wrestla there ever was, and you dare overlook me. I know why – because I never won the accolades that others did. I never won the big one.
But now that I’ve won King of the Ring, just like Austin and Bret before me, I will show the world that what I say is really the bottom line - I will cement my legacy in this business as the greatest ever by defeating Stone Cold Steve Austin at Grapplemania and becoming the new World Champion.
The Dynamite Kid is dead! From now on you can all call me…Dynamite King!
The show’s final scene shows Dynamite, Rikishi and Bischoff holding up their arms as Bockwinkel and the Champion Stone Cold lie decimated behind them.Jim Ross: There will be hell to pay for this. You hear me? There will be hell to pay! Ya no-good bastards! Damn you! Damn you straight to hell!
The credits roll.Matches announced so far for Grapplemania:

Jerry: Hello and welcome to Monday night Adrenaline broadcasting live from Liverpool, England. We are three weeks away from WrestleCade. Let’s get back to last week where we saw one of the biggest double-crosses in our industry.
Mikey: Hollywood Hogan saw the light. Savage is the competition and he took him out. Smart move if you ask me.
Jerry: We now have Hulk Hogan via satellite, who is not here tonight.“The Macho man is a piece of crap. When I hear people say how great the Macho Man is, it makes me sick. It’s the biggest joke I have ever heard. He couldn’t even keep his stinking marriage together. You should have stayed in my shadow Macho Man and you wouldn’t have got hurt”.
The crowd start to boo Hogan heavily now.“Shut the hell up. You the USCW fans turned on me. I’m the reason all you people are here, I’m the one that made the wrestling business what it is today. There’s nobody in this business that’s a bigger icon than I am. I’m the biggest star past or present in the wrestling world today and there will never be a bigger star in this business than Hollywood Hogan. When I made a deal with John Laurinaitis and Jimmy Hart, I realised what I had to do. You got to take what you want; you got to pawn together for business reasons only. And you know what, times have changed. Macho Man, you have never pinned me and after WrestleCade you will never get the chance to again, brother. I’m gonna prove that you’re not even fit enough to carry my bags. Whatcha gonna do Macho Man when Hollywood Hogan destroys you?”
Commercial
Mikey: Strong but true words from our champ, Hollywood Hogan.
Jerry: He’s not here because he’s afraid of the Macho Man.
Mikey: Correct, he’s afraid what he might do to the Macho Man.
Jerry: Eh whatever you say pal. Now it’s time for history in the making. Ryback’s fight to tie Goldberg’s streak is next.
Mikey: That record along with that Hardcore title around his waist highlights the strong year Ryback has had here in USCW. Come on Ryback, you can do this.
Ryback enters the ring to a mixed reaction after his actions last week. It’s quite surreal as Ryback has always been a strong fan favourite here in USCW.
Mikey: Turncoat fans. They are gonna regret not backing my man Ryback!
Goldberg’s music hits. Ryback starts to look nervous as the fans go wild.
Mikey: Wow, to tie Goldberg’s record, Ryback is going to have to beat Goldberg himself.
Suddenly we realize it’s not Goldberg but a Goldberg impostor who stands at under 5 feet making his way out to the ring. Ryback begins to laugh. The fans get a BS chant going.
Mikey: Wow, I bet Ryback is quaking in his boots.
Jerry: This is wrong. This is the opponent Laurinaitis has picked. I agree with these fans.
Mikey: People Power. People Power. People Power!haha
Ryback dominates him from start to finish. As the referee begins to count to three, Ryback breaks the cover. He signals for a spear and hits the local wrestler with it. He then mocks Goldberg’s patented taunt. He picks up his opponent and hits a jackhammer.
Jerry: Wow, almost Goldberg like.
Mikey: Don’t compare this fine physical specimen to a chump like Bill Goldberg. You heard the man last week.
Ryback gets the pin fall and now ties the record. He celebrates in the ring when suddenly Goldberg’s music hits. He makes his way out to the ring while Ryback stands his ground chanting “Feed me more”.
Jerry: Business is about to pick up. What a confrontation we are going to have.
Just as Goldberg gets in the ring, Ryback exits to loud boos. Goldberg smiles at him and stares him out as Ryback makes his way backstage. The local wrestler tries to attack Goldberg from behind but Goldberg hits him with a massive spear. He picks him up and hits him with a Jackhammer as his music hits.
Jerry: Now that’s the real Bill Goldberg!!! I wonder when these two men will get to face off against each other.
Mikey: Should be a squash match. Ryback’s winning streak against Goldberg’s winless streak. I don’t think Ryback should waste his time with that chump.
Jerry: Looks like he wanted nothing to do with him there, the coward.
Commercial
Back in the arena and RAF32 is standing in the squared circle.RAF32: “Hello all. Look, I have made plenty of mistakes since creating this company throughout the last two years. I held back the money so we couldn’t attract the biggest names. I made questionable decisions of holding on to wrestlers who just wanted to bleed the company dry. I even double-crossed a few. But none of that compares to my biggest mistake. And that’s trusting John Laurinaitis. Things were bad for this company, I will not lie. We were on the verge of pulling a WCW as they say. I needed a wrestling mind and so I hired one of the best in Laurinaitis. And in truth, what a job he has done. But now he is trying to steal my company. And you know what I have to say about that? Over my dead body. I accept your challenge Laurinaitis. And after WrestleCade, I will personally fire you. How about next week we enter every name of every member of the roster, backroom staff, commentary team, the janitor, everyone into a raffle. And we select at random who will represent our stakes”.
The crowd like this idea and get another yes chant going.“I’ll let you ponder about that one. But I’m not just here for that. Last week, what happened Randy Savage was a travesty and I will not stand for it. So at WrestleCade, Hollywood Hogan will defend his title against Randy Savage. But that’s for the future, how about the present. Tonight Randy Savage will face the team of King Kong Bundy and... that slime ball Jimmy Hart."
The Crowd go nuts and get a Macho Man chant going now."Oh and one last thing. Hogan, this one is for you. You say you’re the biggest star in wrestling, and that may be true. But next week I have a match for you. Without this man, wrestling would never be what it is today. Without this man, there is no Hollywood Hogan. Next week Hogan, you got a match with…..Lou Thesz.”
That draws the biggest pop of the night as Raf32 makes his way to the back.
Jerry: The Mega Powers colliding at Wrestlecade for the title is a match years in the making. Savage gets an opportunity for revenge on Jimmy Hart tonight!
Mikey: Savage has never pinned Hogan so I don’t see that title going anywhere!
Jerry: And next week, we got two men from different eras. Perhaps the two men that define wrestling squaring off. I can’t wait.
Mikey: Me too partner, hopefully Hollywood goes easy on him!
Jerry: Hogan mightn't make it to WrestleCade by the time Thesz is through with him. Next up we got a match between Zack Ryder and Cody Hall.
Mikey: Cody Halls debut. I’m hyped up to see if this kid can go.
Curt Hawkins is in his tag partner’s corner. Ryder is doing very well when suddenly the ref is inadvertently hit. Out of nowhere Joe Henning attacks Hawkins from behind and sends him flying into the steel steps. He throws Hall a steel chair and Hall connects with Ryder’s head. The ref comes too and makes the three count. It’s a big but controversial win for Hall as he exits with Henning.
Mikey: A Henning and a Hall together again, I love it.
Jerry: Seems like they want them tag titles and have laid down a marker to the #1 contenders tonight.
Jimmy Hart is backstage holding a pair of wrestling shorts with our announcer Sarah Williams.“Look at these. I’m going to have to wear these stupid silly looking tights. I’m a manager; I’m not a professional wrestler. You know what Randy Savage can do to me?”
King Kong Bundy enters.“Jimmy, it’s going to be all ok. You won’t even have to get in the ring. I’m going to crush the Macho Man and end his time here in the USCW”.
The crowd boo as Jimmy Hart begins to laugh.“Your right Bundy, but the Mouth of the South always comes prepared. I’d like to dedicate my victory to the greatest soccer manager to have ever lived….Sir Alex Ferguson”.
The crowd erupts in boos as Hart and Bundy exit.
Mikey: Never trust Hart, he’s the most conniving man in this industry. That’s why he has been so successful.
Commercial
RAF32 is walking backstage when he runs into Rick Rude who is checking himself out in the mirror.Rick Rude: “Mr Raf32, I just wanted to wish you luck…..in your future endeavors. I can’t wait until Johnny is running this show full time”.
Raf32: “Rude you idiot. I have someone who is eager to meet you tonight”.
Rick Rude: “Your wife?”
Raf32: “Good one Rick but I was thinking more of the opposite sex. Watch your back champ!”
Rude looks on nervously as RAF32 exits.
Jerry: I wonder who Raf32 is talking about. The Mega Plowers vs The Tag Champs, The Twin Towers is next.
Mikey: Who cares about that jerk?
Buff Bagwell and Akeem start off the match which quickly turns in favour of the big man. After working with the Bossman to beat down Bagwell through quick tags, Akeem goes to hit a big splash but misses. Bagwell makes the tag to Val Venis who begins to unload on Akeem. Eventually Bossman gets in the ring but Venis knocks him to the outside. He goes up top to hit his finisher on Akeem when suddenly Rick Rude dressed in a robe comes out to distract him. Venis is asking him what the hell is going on when Akeem capitalizes and knocks him from the top rope to the canvas. Akeem hits the 747 splash and gets the victory.The tag team champs celebrate on their way tot he back as Rude hits Bagwell on the outside with his title belt.
Jerry: What the hell Rude? He is jealous of Buff Bagwell and Val Venis.
Mikey: Your kidding me? Rude is jealous of these two losers?
Rude picks up Venis and throws him out over the top rope. The US champ grabs a mic.Rick Rude: “What Id like to have right now is for all you fat, out of shape sweat hogs to keep the noise down while I take my robe off and show you what a real sexy man looks like. A real man, not like those two losers on the outside.”
Rude takes off his robe and poses for the crowd with his US title around his waist. Suddenly we hear someone’s music play.
Jerry: Its Pedro Morales. This must have been who Raf32 was talking about.
Mikey: He must want a closer view of a real man.
Morales comes running to the ring and slides in under the bottom rope. Rude starts to stomp away on him but Morales eventually gets the upper hand delivering a few punches. Rude goes to charge at him but is met by a dropkick from Morales. Rude rolls to the ouside leaving Morales in the ring with the US title. Morales picks it up and raises it above his head whilst pointing at Rude. Rude waves him off as he makes his way to the back.
Jerry: Looks like Morales wants a shot at Rude for the US title.
Mikey: Well Morales will just have to get in line like everyone else. Looks like its time for Bella vs Bella.
Both Bella’s make their way out separately, both looking as confused as each other. Brie gets a very good pop though which surprises quite a few. The bell rings as Nikki screams for her sister to lie down and take the loss. Brie looks unsure what to do as the crowd get a “Don’t do it” chant going. Nikki begins to get impatient but eventually Brie lies down on her back. Nikki smiles and goes to make the cover. As she does, Brie rolls her into a small package and picks up the victory. She quickly exits the ring as Nikki rages.
Jerry: We got a new champion!!
Mikey: Despicable move against her own sister.
Jerry: The same sister who expects her to live in her shadow? Good on Brie!
Mikey: She will pay for this though so enjoy your 15 seconds of fame Brie!
RAF32 is about to get into his limo when he bumps into John Laurinaitis.John Laurinaitis: “Your on RAF, and may I take this opportunity to wish you the best of luck next week in the draw. May the best man win”.
He offers his hand with a stupid smile on his face. RAf32 ignores him and tells his driver to get him out of there. Laurinaitis looks on smiling to himself as the limo pulls off.
Jerry: Its set. Next week could very well shape up to define the future of this company.
Mikey: Please, please, please let it be me vs you at WrestleCade, I’ll kick your ass.
Jerry: Of course that could very well happen, as all employees are entered into the raffle. And now it’s time for our main event, Randy Savage vs Jimmy Hart and King Kong Bundy.
It basically turns out to be a one on one match going back and forth between Savage and Bundy. Savage again is brilliant from the start when suddenly Bundy gets a sly shot in on Savages right arm. Bundy begins to dissect the injury and works away on the arm with an arm bar. Savage eventually fights back and starts again to take control of this match. Savage unleashes a few suplexes and then connects with a big boot, knocking Bundy to the outside. He points at Hart and motions for him to enter the ring. Hart starts shaking his head but Savage drags him into the ring. Savage strikes Hart with a punch to the skull which goes down well with the home town fans. Suddenly a familiar song plays.
Jerry: Its Hogan, hes here. Boy oh boy, what a showdown this will be.
However there is no sign of Hogan on the entrance ramp. Suddenly from behind, Hogan dressed again in black, jumps the Macho Man. The ref calls for the bell and disqualifies Bundy and Hart. Bundy enters the ring and both men now beat down on Savage. However Savage begins to fight back delivering punches to each man.
Jerry: You have got to admire the heart of the Macho Man!
He floors both men as the crowd go wild. Jimmy Hart jumps on his back trying to stop the Macho Mans momentum. However Savage easily throws him off and then meets the oncoming Bundy with a clothesline. Just as he turns to face Hogan, he is met by a big boot to the face. Hogan then hits, not one, not two, but three leg drops on the fallen Macho Man. He then motions Hart to get a steel chair from outside the ring, which Hart duly obliges. He places the already injured right arm of Savage in it. He motions for Bundy to hit a splash on Savage.
Jerry: Don’t do it Bundy! Don’t do it!
Bundy proceeds and hits a splash on Savage. Hogan suggests that he should do it again as Bundy delivers another splash which will surely cause a serious injury to the right arm of the Macho Man.
Jerry: Enough already! Savages arm must be broken.
Mikey: I’d like to wish Randy well on his early retirement!haha Let this be a lesson for people not to mess with Hollywood Hogan, brother.
Hogan takes off his belt and starts to swing it around in the air.
Jerry: No Hogan!
He begins to beat the back of Savage with the belt, repeatedly for at least two minutes. The crowd are not one bit happy and begin to throw rubbish at the ring. Hogan points to the WrestleCade sign whilst raising his title belt over his head as Jimmy Hart grabs a mic.
Jerry: You have got to wonder about the condition of the Macho Man. That arm doesn't look too good.Jimmy Hart on the mic : “Oh Yeah!!!!!”
The show ends with the trio of Hogan, Hart and Bundy standing triumphant in the centre of the ring as the Macho Man Randy Savage is loaded onto a stretcher by the medical team.
Next week on Adrenaline:
1. What will be the condition of the Macho Man?
2. Will Goldberg’s winless streak continues?
3. What has the team of Cody Hall and Mr Imperfect Joe Henning have in store for the rest of the tag division?

WECWF Opens with Joey Styles welcoming us to Tonights episode of Friday Night Mayhem..
The Music of Jim Cornette plays and the Former head of MNG makes his way to the ring, to the shock of the WEWCF Universe.Jim Cornette
"Well well well so this is the sh*thole that Eric Bischoff tried to pass off as the Future of Pro Wrestling? Bischoff you're a no good piece of sh*t. And this promotion is your toilet. Honestly Bischoff if you were on fire i wouldn't even waste my pi*s on you. I hope you run MNG into the ground just like you've done with every other promotion you've had your greasy sh*t covered hands on. I also hope that you'll finally be exposed as the phony, fake, lying maggot scumbag you really are..
The music of the new WECWF Owner Vincent James McMahon plays, and Vince Sr makes his way to the ring.. He immediately goes up to Cornette and shakes his hand..Vince McMahon Sr.
James, I like you. I like your passion for this business. I also like how your anger and bitterness fuels you. That's impressive to me
Cornette looks pleased and says thank you sir, as the crowd boo Cornette heavilyVince McMahon Sr.
But James I have a problem. I've hired you and another man with whom you have quite a storied history, or perhaps rivalry one might say. As I'm a second generation promoter I've learned that the key to success in this business is competition whether that's from a rival promotion or within my own organization and that also means by absolutely any means necessary. So without further ado here's your competition James...Vince Russo
Hey Jim no hard feelings bro, lets let the past be the past and do our best to run this company the best we can. I'm 100 percent willing to let the past be the past and move on to the future and making WECWF the best Professional Wrestling company on the planet
Russo extends his hand to Cornette as a physical and clear olive branch.
Cornette clearly red in the face with anger responds with a middle finger and a fu*k you to Russo's face, Russo backs off and shrugs his shoulder and just motions with OK! OK!Vince McMahon Sr.
Well Gentlemen if the both of you can't work together then I must set the proverbial pigeons loose and have you both working on opposing sides.. So then I now need to hear both of your reasons, and whatever reasons you have for me keep either of you on my payroll. Jim you go first. GoJim Cornette
Mr McMahon, sir you should know that the future of Professional Wrestling, lies within the past, its lies within the history of this great industry, sir Wrasslin is the past the present and the future. The man beside me is a no good piece of sh*t, he's disgraced this great business more times than i can to remember. He's a liar, he's a thief and he's a fu*king asshole. Mr McMahon, I deserve to be the booker for this company. I swear to you on the lives of my wife and family that if i can lead this territory, i will deliver the success and ratings that have alluded WEWCF in the past..Vince McMahon Sr.
Very good James, now Vincent let me hear your presentation.Vince Russo
Mr McMahon, bro, Jim Cornette is a hack, he's so far out of touch he still sees the world in black and white. Wrasslin isn't the future, no body cares about that **** anymore, your son knew that, i know that and every wrestling fan on the planet knows it. Bro the present and the future will always be Sports Entertainment, you've gotta hook in the fans, and keep em hooked bro, Pop Culture, modern day Americana bro. Let me book the territory and i promise you the success me and Vince Jr had back in the day.Vince McMahon Sr.
Gentlemen you are both making a good argument, and as far as i can see it, you both deserve the chance to run the Territory, but unfortunately we all know that wont work. So i propose that at the Mayhem Rising PPV we decide won truly deserves to run the company. James you round up the guys who want to be Wrasslers, and Vincent you get the gents who want to be Entertainers and have them compete to be the future of WEWCF.. And of course the losers.. Will be FIRED. Good luck.

SWE Live Episode 1Opening Segment
The General Manager of the SWE, Gorilla Monsoon is standing in the ring alongside his assistant Pamela Anderson. The crowd are cheering and waiting for Gorilla to speak“Welcome to the return of the SWE, Spongey Wrestling Entertainment is back in business. Mr Spongey has worked tirelessly to bring to you the finest professional wrestlers in the world to entertain you, the SWE universe. Mr Spongey has appointed myself, Gorilla Monsoon as GM and has given me a beautiful assistant, Pamela Anderson (the crowd give Pamela a lot of wolf whistles) to help run this show and indeed she will take charge of our very own Diva division.
Now to get down to business, you will be glad to hear that we have signed the legend, the King of Kings, Triple H and he will be here tonight (the crowd cheer loudly). We also have 2 championship belts to award. I have decided that the vacant SWE Heavyweight Championship will be decided at our marquee PPV Spongemania IV. As for the two who will do battle for the championship, the first participant will be decided by an over the top rope Battle Royal later on this evening. I will decide who the second participant will be next week. And for the SWE Interprovincial Championship we are going to have a match for that right now between two of the top cruiserweight talents from TNA so bring on down the participants and let’s get this show started.”
Match: Christopher Daniels vs Eric Young for the SWE Interprovincial Championship
Young now has a chance to get some offense in of his own. He hits Daniels with an inverted Atomic Drop and follows it up with a missile dropkick from the top turnbuckle. He sees his chance to finish it off and sets Daniels up for the Spike Piledriver. Daniels escapes before the move could be executed and hits Young with the reverse STO and immediately applies the Koji Clutch to attempt to make Young tap out. Young is in pain and seems close to tapping out.
Suddenly, music blares out over the arena. It’s Sheamus and he runs out to the ring. He gives a Brogue kick to Daniels which leaves him flat on his back and then follows it up with a High Cross powerbomb. Young struggles to his feet but is immediately hit with a Brogue kick and a High Cross powerbomb. Young and Daniels are helpless and out of it in the ring. Sheamus, with his arms out wide, celebrates dominating the two wrestlers much to the dislike of the crowd.
Backstage Interview: Bobby Roode w/LaylaQ. What are your intentions now that you have joined the SWE? “I’ve conquered the stock markets and made millions, i’ve conquered TNA and achieved power and glory. Now its time to conquer the SWE and to do that i need to become SWE Heavyweight Champion. First step will be to win the battle royal later tonight to get into the title match at Spongemania and then once i am crowned SWE Heavyweight Champion we will celebrate by opening this expensive bottle of champagne.”
Match: The Usos vs The Gangstas
The Gangstas, New Jack and Mustafa Saed make their way down to the ring along with their enforcer junkyard Dog. They also have a black bag, undoubtedly filled with weapons. They are followed to the ring by The Usos, who stop on stage to perform their traditional war dance. This gets the crowd cheering for them.
The match starts at an uptempo pace which gives the upper hand to the Usos. After a flurry of offensive manoeuvres with both the Usos and the Gangstas in the ring, we are left with Jey Uso and New Jack. Jey flings New Jack into the corner and follows it up with a forearm smash. Jey flings New Jack into the opposite corner and as he is set to follow it up once again with a forearm smash, his foot is grabbed by Junkyard Dog. This distraction, which was not seen by the ref allows New Jack time to slide out of the ring and regroup with his partner.
New Jack gets back in the ring and circles Jey until Jey is close to Mustafa. Mustafa reaches out for Jey distracting him enough to allow New Jack to attack. The Gangstas have control and tag each other in and out while systematically beating down Jey Uso. Jey is laid out on the mat and Mustafa is on the top turnbuckle. He goes to give a diving headbutt but Jey manages to get out of the way. Mustafa is hurting and Jey is struggling to make his way over to his partner Jimmy. Jimmy is stomping the mat and getting the crowd louder, anything to help Jey get over to him. Mustafa is able to tag New Jack in but Jey is just about able to tag Jimmy in. Jimmy unleashes a flurry of offense on both New Jack and Mustafa. Jimmy gives New Jack a Samoan drop and follows it up with a superkick that sends New Jack outside of the ring. Jimmy turns his attention to Mustafa and is now joined by Jey who has recovered from his previous beating.
Mustafa Saed is being bombarded with double team hits from The Usos but somehow manages to slide out of the ring where Junkyard Dog is waiting for him. This allows Jey Uso to come off the ropes and launch himself over the top rope and on top of JYD and Saed to lay them out. Jey is pumped up and gets the crowd on their feet in excitement. New Jack manages to get himself back in the ring and goes to hit Jimmy Uso, who is still in the ring, from behind. Jimmy sees this and ducks out of the way and hits New Jack with a superkick which lays New Jack out on the mat. Jey Uso pops back up on the apron, takes the tag from Jimmy and promptly delivers a Samoan Splash to get the pinfall victory.
Backstage: Triple H’s locker room
The GM, Gorilla Monsoon, knocks on Triple H’s door. Hunter answers it and Monsoon can hear music and girls laughing in the background. He can also smell alcohol and notices Triple H looking a bit weary.Gorilla: Is everything ok? As you know the SWE has spent a lot of money and a first round draft pick to acquire your services. We are expecting big things from you and i hope you are ready for your match later tonight.Triple H: Do you know who i am? I am the King of Kings, The Game, The Cerebral Assassin. I am always ready for whatever mediocre competition that’s out there. I’ll be out there later to show the world why i am the best.
Triple H slams the door shut. Gorilla Monsoon looks concerned.
Promo: AJ Styles (in ring)
AJ Styles comes down to the ring to address the crowd. He doesn’t care about the crowd’s reaction to him and doesn’t even acknowledge them. He grabs the mic“What you see before you is the future of the SWE, the future of pro wrestling and the future of sports entertainment. Just look at me, i’ve got charisma (he grins at the crowd), i’ve got agility, power, technique, i’ve got it all and there is nobody past, present and future that can hold a candle to what i have got. You may be thinking that i’m all talk but soon you will see that my actions will back up everything i’ve said. Get ready for the Age of Styles.”
Match: Michelle McCool vs Layla in a Bra & Panties match
Michelle McCool and Layla are in the ring and lock up as they hear the bell. The match starts off very technical with a lot of holds, reversals and attempted pinfalls. The referee, however, doesn’t count the pin attempts as there is no pinfall victory in this match, a winner is whoever can strip their opponent to their bra and panties. McCool and Layla remonstrate with the ref but he shrugs his shoulders as if there is nothing he can do. McCool and Layla are not happy with this and continue their “wrestling” match.
The assistant GM, Pamela Anderson, comes out to ringside, hops up on the apron and as Layla is pushed towards Anderson, she reaches out and rips off Layla’s top to leave her in her bra. Layla turns to Anderson to complain and McCool joins her. Anderson , however, pulls off McCool’s top too to leave her in her bra too. The crowd are loving this and Anderson subsequently pulls off her own top to leave her in her bra and make the crowd go crazy.
McCool and Layla don’t like what’s happening and both leave the ring and go back up the ramp out of the arena. The match is a no contest but Anderson gets in the ring and takes off her bottoms and that leaves her in just her bra and panties and takes the cheers from the crowd as she poses suggestively for them.
Backstage: GM’s Office
Christopher Daniels and Eric Young make their way into Gorilla Monsoon’s office to complain about what happened earlier that night. They are hurting from the brogue kicks they received from Sheamus and want a rematch set for the SWE Interprovincial Championship. Monsoon agrees and arranges the match to happen next week. Daniels and Young head away to prepare for the Battle Royal coming up.
Match: Triple H vs Jobber No. 1
The King of Kings, Triple H makes a spectacular entrance. The crowd go nuts for the marquee signing of the SWE. However people begin to notice that Triple H is staggering a bit as he gets to the ring, people are beginning to think he is still drunk but still cheer him on. Triple H gets into the ring, takes off his crown and the bell sounds for the start of the match.
The jobber runs at Triple H but is met by a kick to the gut and quickly followed up by a Pedigree. Triple H gets the win in a very short match. Triple H raises his hand but is met by muted applause. The crowd don’t know what to make of their star performer.
Backstage: GM’s office
Michelle McCool & Layla both barge into the GM’s office to have a world with the assistant GM Pamela Anderson.Michelle: “We are professionally trained wrestlers and want to compete in matches that showcase our athletic ability, not stupid Bras & Panties matches that are only there to titillate and give pervy guys a reason to touch themselves.”Layla: “Yeah, we want the same types of matches as the men, we want to be treated equally.”Pamela: “Listen, ladies. We all know that the only reason women are in wrestling is to provide glamour and to give the viewers at home a chance to go to the toilet during our shows. We are here to show your beautiful side and who better to show you than a woman who is lusted after by millions of men, me (she smiles). Now Michelle, you have great height but a little flat chested and you Layla, you’re well endowed but a little short. But together with my help we can make the two of you into the glamour of the SWE.”
Main Event Match: Battle Royal to decide title contender at Spongemania VI
One by one the 12 participants in the Battle Royal come down to the ring. AJ Styles, being one of the participants, also makes his way to the ring and hops on to the apron but then decides to back away and back out of the arena. The crowd are livid and are hurling abuse at him. The Battle Royal starts with 11 wrestlers competing for the title shot at Spongemania.
The match starts with New Jack and Mustafa Saed going straight for Jimmy and Jey Uso seeking retribution for their loss to the Usos earlier that evening. While the two pairs are brawling, the rest of the competitors attack the Gangstas enforcer, Junkyard Dog. He is unable to fend them all off and he is sent over the top rope and eliminated. New Jack and Mustafa Saed rush over to the rope to try to save Junkyard Dog but are too late. They are shocked and as they turn back to the other competitors they are each met with a drop kick from The Usos which sends them flying over the top rope and both New Jack and Mustafa Saed are eliminated. They are livid and screaming at The Usos as they are being ushered away from the ring.
Eric Young attacks Sheamus in an attempt at retribution at what happened earlier but he is still hurting and not effective in his attack. Eric Young comes off the ropes and runs at Sheamus but he just ducks and sends Eric Young over the top rope and he is eliminated. Jeff Hardy is locked up with Tito Santana and the two are trying to force the other over the top rope. Christopher Daniels sees this and lifts both of them over the top rope but both Santana and Hardy land on the apron and therefore not eliminated. Daniels tries to finish the job but misses Hardy and is then met by a forearm smash from Santana. This allows Hardy and Santana enough time to get back in the ring but as soon as Santana gets back in he is met by a clothesline from Bobby Roode which sends him over the top rope and he is eliminated. Roode is laughing at Santana as he is being ushered back up the ramp by the officials.
Jeff Hardy is tussling with Christopher Daniels after Daniels tried to eliminate him earlier. Hardy gets the upperhand and gives Daniels a Twist of Fate. Hardy tries to lift Daniels over the top rope but Daniels clings on. Jey Uso joins Hardy in trying to eliminate Daniels and between the two of them they have Daniels over the top rope but not on the floor. However, out of nowhere, Sheamus comes over and lifts Jey over the top ropes and eliminates him. Jimmy is shocked that his brother is eliminated and immediately attacks Sheamus. Meanwhile, Daniels is stillon the apron hanging on and just about to get himself back in the ring when Hardy hits him with a drop kick that sends Daniels on to the ground and he is eliminated.
Jimmy Uso surprises Sheamus with a superkick which sends Sheamus hurtling back into the corner. Jimmy sees his chance and with his feet on the second rope launches hit after hit onto Sheamus with the crowd counting up to ten along with him. Just as Jimmy is about to hit number 10, Sheamus pushes Jimmy away and to the middle of the ring. Jimmy turns to face Sheamus again but is hit with a Brogue kick from Sheamus. Jimmy Uso is out of it and all Sheamus has to do is lift him up and throw him over the top rope. Jimmy Uso is eliminated.
There are now three competitors left in the ring. Sheamus is recuperating in the corner after eliminating Jimmy Uso. Bobby Roode & Jeff Hardy are grappling trying to throw each other out of the ring. Sheamus goes to over to them and throws both competitors over the top rope and turns away to celebrate. Bobby Roode falls to the ground but Jeff Hardy grabs the top rope and his feet does not touch the ground. He manages to pull himself back into the ring but as he turns around to face Sheamus he is met by a brogue kick from Sheamus which sends him over the top rope and onto the ground. Sheamus celebrates winning the Battle Royal and will compete for the SWE Championship at Spongemania VI0 -

Shane now walks out slowly , He’s got a microphone in his hand, he looks around and then looks squarely at Jackman
Shane: Ya know something my father always said to me , Celebrities are a nessacary evil in the Pro Wrestling business, That they bring in much needed revenue, But never to the detriment of your own talent , and I promised myself I would never do that, Yet here you are ? Hugh Jackman every comic book nerd’s hero . Now I saw you wanted to get another shot in wrestling after you’re two little segments on Raw , And I said fair enough I’ll bring you in for a little segment and you’ll bring in a few quid and you can piss off and do more movies or whatever.

PJ: I can’t believe what I’ve just seen !
JR: Well it looks like Hugh Jackman has a pair of balls after all
PJ: Are you serious he just cheated to win ! Is he going to do that at the Pay Per View too ?
CUT TO BREAK !
We come back from the break and a video hyping the debut of Japanese Fighting Sensation Sakuraba plays across the video wall

Gangrel: Looks like I’ll be seeing you there Big Guy. I’m in too ! hahahaa
Gangrel takes a sip of blood from his goblet and stares down Big E before walking off , Big E looks back at him in total disgust as the camera closes off
We come back and it’s Semi Finals Time , Muhammed Hassan has his armed guards around the ring, Hassan’s music now plays and he comes out with Redragon his elite guard as he calls them

JR: See ya next week folks0 -
Jerry: Hello everyone and welcome to USCW’s flagship show Monday Night Adrenaline broadcasting live from Chicago. Seems like we are starting with this draw.
Mikey: We will have a clearer picture of the faith of the USCW in ten minutes or so.
Jerry: Of course everyone is eligible, so it’s really just about luck at this stage. What’s the biggest mismatch Mikey?
Mikey: Me vs you pal. I’d really like to see Ryback defend Mr Laurinaitis stake. He has never lost here in the USCW so you can’t get a surer bet than that.
There is a tumbler located in the centre of the ring. Randy Savages music plays and the fans go wild.
However, they are left disappointed when it turns out to be John Laurinaitis in a Macho Man t-shirt. He gets on the mic to a hostile reception.“My name is Mr John Laurinaitis. I am the Co-Owner of USCW and the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline. I bet you all thought it was Savage. Well surprise, it’s not. For the main event match tonight between Hollywood Hogan and Lou Thesz, I have decided that there is a need for a special guest referee. The special ref is a man of integrity, someone with honour who is respected by all, who just so happens to be the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline, me John Laurinaitis. And now for the matter at hand. Things are going to change around here. First we had the Lou Thesz era, then we had the Hollywood Hogan era and after WrestleCade, we will have the era of Mr Excitement himself, John Laurinaitis."
He raises his arms in the air, smiling smugly as the crowd boo. He attempts to start a “People Power” chant but the crowd get a “You Suck” chant going instead. However he is cut off as Raf32’s music plays with the former sole owner of the USCW making his way to the ring.RAF32: ”Lets get this draw started, I’ve had enough of listening to your verbal diarrhea and I’m sure the USCW universe agree. You have to be the most egotistical human being I have ever met”.
The fans get a “yes” chant going while Laurinaitis gets out a page. He then signs his name on it and hands it to Raf32.John Laurinaitis: “Here’s an autograph for the kids. Mind that sheet; it’s going to be very valuable one day. You can tell your kids about the day where you shared this ring with the legend himself, John Laurinaitis. The man who single handily will revolutionize this industry.Great story for the grand kids too”.
This clearly angers Raf32 who crumbles up the sheet and throws it away.Raf32: “Let’s get this show on the road. You’re up first John”.
Laurinaitis rolls around the tumbler and eventually grabs a ball out. He opens it slowly and again even slower when reading who he has got to represent him. He then begins to smile to himself.“Wow, I guess my luck is in. Let me introduce to you all, the man representing People Power and you the USCW universe at WrestleCade……..King Kong Bundy”.
Bundy makes his way out to the ring with his manager Jimmy Hart. Johnny is all smiles as he shakes both Bundy’s and Harts hand.Laurinaitis: “May I wish you the best of luck, you’re going to need it Raf”.
Raf32 walks towards the tumbler and after some time selects a ball.
Raf32: “Haha, this must be a joke. It can’t possibly be this guy”.
Laurinaitis: “Well who did you get? Jerry or Mikey? The Janitor?”
Raf32: Even worse. But it’s not bad news for me, its bad news for you John. Representing me at Wrestlecade is the man who revolutionized this business. Please welcome the greatest wrestler of all time…Lou Thesz.
Lou Thesz’s music plays and out he comes. He charges down to the ring and shoots in under the bottom rope. Bundy fails to connect with a clothesline after Thesz ducks. He comes flying back off the ropes and hits Bundy with a cross body. He gets a few kicks in and then clotheslines Bundy over the top rope. Bundy is extremely unhappy and goes to get back in the ring but Jimmy Hart manages to convince him otherwise.Jimmy Hart using his megaphone: “I’m too smart for you boy. I’ll decide the time when Bundy crushes you. I can personally make you a promise Raf32 in front of all these halfwits fans. Bundy will win at WrestleCade and your gonna need to go job hunting boy. I suggest you make alternative plans because when Jimmy Hart guarantees something, I don’t do it lightly”.
Hart and Bundy storm off leaving Thesz in the ring with Raf32 and Laurinaitis.Laurinaitis: “I’d like to wish the two of you the very best of luck. I guess I’ll be seeing you later on Lou, good luck with your match”.
He offers a handshake to Lou, which Thesz rejects.
Laurinaitis: “Oh and Raf, I was thinking that after WrestleCade, this company could do with a fresh start. I’m thinking of a name change. How does John Laurinaitis Championship Wrestling sound?”
This clearly angers Raf32. Raf32:“You SOB Laurinaitis. This is my company and if you think I’m gonna let you get your slimy hands on it, you have got another thing coming. Oh and one last thing John”.
Raf32 nails Laurinaitis with a solid left hook. The fans go wild as Laurinaitis makes his way to the back holding his jaw. Raf32 lifts Thesz arm above his head as we go to a break.
Commercial
Jerry: Wow, what a match we have set for WrestleCade. I can’t see past Thesz to be honest.
Mikey: You’re backing against Jimmy Hart? You’re more stupid than I thought. Bundy would crush Thesz alone. With Jimmy’s help, Thesz shouldn’t bother turning up. May i say, that cheap shot by Raf32 was pathetic.
Jerry: Whatever way you look at it, it’s sure to be a great matchup. I’ll pass you over now to our backstage announcer Sarah Williams, who has a very special guest.
Sarah Williams is standing backstage when Randy Savage comes into focus. The crowd go wild and get a “Macho Man” chant going.
Sarah Williams: Randy, after last week you must be hurting. That elbow doesn’t look too good.
Savage: I say I'm a million percent. That is better than a hundred percent! I’m the type of person that doesn’t talk negative, I stay positive. Yeah!
Sarah Williams: What did you make of the moment when Hollywood Hogan betrayed you a couple of weeks back and claimed the World Heavyweight Championship? Does it bother you knowing that you have never pinned the Hulkster? Some say you can’t beat him.
Savage: Nothing means nothing. Hulkamania is like a single grain of sand in the Sahara desert that is Nacho Madness. I am the cream of the crop, and the cream of the crop always rises to the top. There is nobody that does it better than the Macho Man Randy Savage. And at WrestleCade, Macho Madness is coming for you Hogan, Oh Yeah!
Sarah Williams: Whats your plan to beat Hogan at WrestleCade?
Savage: My plan is no plan. I am going to be a human torpedo and I’m going to zero in on you Hollywood Hogan. And as for that good for nothing Jimmy Hart, I got a message for you. What it is, is what it is. We got a date with destiny, if you can wait because I cant. Oh Yeah!”
The Macho Man storms off.
Jerry: Macho Man doesn’t sound too happy.
Mikey: He sounds demented. What a weirdo.
Jerry: Passionate would be a better word to use. And now we have our first match of the night. This is a #1 contenders match for the tag titles. It’s a triple threat tornado tag match between the teams of The Long Island Broskis, The Mega Plowers and Hall & Henning (H&H)Henning makes his way out to the ring with Cody Hall, with a microphone. “I told you two weeks ago, I was going to make a statement and now I have. It’s time for Cody and I to step out from our fathers shadows. While their partnership was above average, ours will be the best ever.”
Cody Hall: "And we will start our legacy by winning the Tag Titles at WrestleCade, after we dispose of these two loser tag teams.”
The match starts off with a high tempo, with the LIB’s dominating early on. As the Mega Plowers and H&H try to take a breather on the outside, Ryder and Hawkins climb the turnbuckle and dive out on top of their opponents. Ryder tosses Bagwell back inside the ring. The fans are really feeling it as Ryder and Bagwell have a back and forth struggle inside the ring. Suddenly we notice the Tag Champs, The Twin Towers coming down to the ring. They take out both Hawkins and Venis on the outside of the ring. However the two competitors inside the ring are oblivious to their presence. Bossman gets in the ring and takes down Ryder, while Akeem drags Bagwell to the outside. Akeem hits a DDT on the outside, followed by a splash to Bagwell, while the Big Bossman hits The Bossman Slam on Ryder. Both men stand tall in the ring as Henning and Hall make their way to the back, having slyly avoided the champions. We have a no contest and the champs look very happy at that result.
Jerry: Damn Twin Towers, now we have no #1 contenders.
Mikey: They did the smart thing, if there is no #1 contenders, there is no title match at WrestleCade. Looks like the lads can take WrestleCade off and have a few beers instead.
We notice Brie Bella backstage with her newly won Women’s Title. The US champ Rick Rude approaches her.“Congratulations Brie on last week. We could make quite the couple with all this gold around our waists. How about we get to know each other a little better over a drink and if you’re lucky, you might get your own special rude awakening?”.
Brie just looks at him disgusted and storms off.Rude shouting down the hall:“Just remember Brie, I gave you first dibs on the Ravishing One!”
Jerry: Next up we have Goldberg vs the same local contestant from last week. Can he do better than Ryback did last week?
Mikey: The man can’t even buy a win. I wonder will we see Goldberg increase his losing streak to two?
Goldberg is putting on a clinic here after deliver a big boot to the local wrestler. Ryback comes out on stage and Goldberg motions for him to come to the ring. Ryback refuses so Goldberg leaves the ring and motions to Ryback to approach him. Ryback teases coming back and forth as Goldberg gets counted out. Goldberg chases after Ryback but after unsuccessfully trying to catch him comes back out to find the local wrestler celebrating. He gets back in the ring and hits him with a powerful spear. He then hits the jackhammer on his fallen opponent. While Goldberg panders to the crowd, Ryback comes from behind and hits him with a spear. He mocks Goldberg , sticking his tongue out. He picks Goldberg up and hits the jackhammer.Ryback grabs a mic and points at the WrestleCade Sign: “Bill Goldberg, your next.”
Mikey: Wow, what a statement. Streak vs Streak at Wrestlecade. That is of course Rybacks undefeated streak against Bill Goldberg’s pathetic winless streak.
Jerry: Finally, Bill gets the match he wanted at WrestleCade. Goldberg is gonna be livid, I wouldn’t want to be Ryback right now.
Mikey: You mean the man that just kicked Bill Goldberg’s ass?
Jerry: After a cheapshot from behind partner. Something’s gotta give at WrestleCade. Can Goldberg stop Ryback from breaking his own impressive unbeaten streak set over a decade ago?
We see Nikki Bella backstage now, giving out about last week to a backstage crew member. Rick Rude approaches her.“Hey Nikki, shame about last week. How about I give you a shoulder to cry on? Chin up, you’re probably the next best looking person here at USCW behind me, so things could be worse. What ya say about getting a closer look at my hotel room?"
Nikki slaps him and storms off as Rude looks puzzled.
Rick Rude: "Do I take that as a yes?"
Jerry: Rick Rude is not having a great time with the women tonight Mikey.
Mikey: My heart breaks for the poor guy.
Jerry: We will now get a closer look at Rude’s opponent at WrestleCade. Pedro Morales is up next.
Pedro Morales vs a local competitor is a very short match, with Morales dominating from start to finish. At the start of the match, the local competitor slaps Morales in the face. This causes Morales to snap and he hits him with an array of different moves. After hitting a Backbreaker, he locks in the Boston crab in the centre of the ring. His opponent has no choice but to tap out.
Jerry: Quite the impressive debut for Morales.
Mikey: Got to agree, albeit it against a jobber.
Out of nowhere, Rude blindsides Morales and hits in with the title belt across the head. Morales seems to be knocked clean out.
Mikey: We saw the two sides to Rude tonight and I gotta say I prefer this one.Rick Rude: “Well this has got to be the ugliest audience I have ever seen. You women are disgusting. There’s gonna be no Rude Awakening for any of you dogs tonight. Is this an arena or is it the world’s biggest dog pound? Im getting out of here before I catch something.”
Rude exits as Morales seems to be coming to.
Jerry: Disgusting attitude by Rude.
Mikey: Nah, a few here should be on leashes!haha dog pound, I love it!
Raf32 is walking backstage when he runs into the celebrating Tag Champs.Raf32: “You think your smart guys ya? No one to challenge for your titles ya? Well your correct, no one team will get a shot at yeer titles. Instead I’m booking yeer defence at WrestleCade against a trio of teams. The Long Island Broski’s, H&H and The Mega Plowers will all get a shot at yee in a fatal four way tag team match. Now, get the hell out of my face.”
The tag champs look pissed as they exit. John Laurinaitis comes over to Raf32.Raf32: “And another thing John, if you’re thinking of screwing Lou Thesz tonight, you got another thing coming. I’ll be out there at ring side to stop any of your stupid shenanigans”.
John Laurinaitis: “Well, I’m afraid you’re going to be left disappointed so”.
About 10 cops build a circle around RAF32. The head cop talks. “Raf32, I’m arresting you for assault. You do not have to say anything…”John Laurinaitis: “That’s right, that good for nothing assaulted me on my own property. Take him away boys”.
Raf32 just smiles at Laurinaitis as the cops march him away.
Jerry: That dastardly good for nothing. Thesz is screwed.
Mikey: Well maybe Raf32 shouldn’t have put his hands on Mr Laurinaitis so. Lou Thesz is a big boy, he can handle himself.
We see Joe Henning and Cody Hall in a bowling alley just beside the arena. Henning has nearly put up the perfect game. He has 11 strikes and is about to go for his 12th.Henning: “Cody, get me that blindfold. Im about to prove how easy a perfect game really is”.
Hall ties it around Henning’s head, so Henning’s vision is obstructed.
Henning: And now Ladies and Gentlemen, you will witness a PERFECT game. He takes his time, getting a feel for the bowling ball. When he does throw it, it’s going straight for the centre of the pins. However it spins away and goes down the gutter. Henning takes the blindfold off.
Henning” Are you kidding me? What the hell man?
Hall putting his hand over the camera: “Shut that damn camera off now. What a fluke, you got it the other 15 times man”.
Jerry: Haha Mr Imperfect strikes again, what a guy.
Mikey: You try to throw a perfect game dumbass, incredibly hard feat.
Jerry: Well perhaps if he wasn’t so arrogant, he would have got it.
Commercial
Jerry: I’m hearing next week, Brie Bella and Nikki Bella will both be guests on a show presented by Rick Rude called “Ricks Rude Awakening”.
Mikey: Bound to be fireworks there.
Jerry: Agreed, the Bella's have a few things to sort out.And now it’s time for our main event. But first the results of the USCW poll to decide the stipulation for the main event at WrestleCade.
The results appear on the titantron.
A) Cage Match 41%
Last Man Standing Match 26%
C) Hell in a Cell 33%
Jerry: There you have it folks. The main event of WrestleCade 2 will be decided in side a steel cage match.
Mikey: Suits that loser Savage perfect so as he doesn’t have to pin a man he has never pinned.
Jerry: You know as well as me partner that Savage will want to win this match by pin fall. He will want to eliminate any doubt.
John Laurinaitis makes his way out to the ring in his referee shirt. The crowd boo him heavily as he comes out in silence. He begins to check each turnbuckle and makes sure everything is right with the ring.
Mikey: What a professional Mr Laurinaitis is. Not only is he a great GM but I have no doubt he will be a great referee. He will call this right down the middle.
Jerry: Ya right, I somehow doubt that.
Hollywood Hogan makes his way out to the ring accompanied by his manager Jimmy Hart. They get inside the ring, Hogan is carrying a mic and it looks like he has something to say.“Cut that damn music. I can’t believe Lou Thesz is here in the USCW. You know as a kid, I looked up to Lou Thesz. He made me want to become a professional wrestler. But that was when I was a kid. Now I look up to no man. I’m at the top of this industry and everyone looks up to me now, brother. But I just wanted to comment on something before I retire Lou Thesz. Play the damn video.”
“You gave me a 1 or a 0 for my wrestling ability Lou Thesz, you chump. Well you made two mistakes in that interview Lou. The first is that I am indeed a wrestler brother, and the second…is that I am a bad guy. Now, get the hell out here so I can smack some manners into you”.
Lou Thesz makes his way out and the match starts. Thesz is hitting Hogan with a massive array of different moves ranging from headlocks to wristlocks to his backbreaker submission. Hogan is struggling early on. However a distraction from Jimmy Hart gives him an opportunity to get back in this match. After turning his attention away from Hart, Thesz runs at Hogan but is “accidentally” tripped up by Laurinaitis. Laurinaitis pleads his innocence but the crowd aren’t buying any of it. Hogan starts to stomp away on Thesz and eventually puts him in a headlock. This wears down Thesz and Hogan releases the hold. As Thesz is down Hogan goes to lock in Lou’s patented STF.
Jerry: How insulting to Thesz.
Mikey: Shut up! He is paying the man homage.
However Thesz breaks out of it and floors Hogan with a dropkick. Thesz locks in the STF on Hogan and it looks like Hogan is struggling. John Laurinaitis turns his back to the action and starts to warn Hart about his “disruption” on the outside. King Kong Bundy charges down to the ring and breaks the hold. He starts to beat down Thesz as Hogan gathers himself. Laurinaitis is “oblivious” to what’s going on. Both men stomp away as the crowd get a “Macho Man” chant going. And they aren’t disappointed. Savage comes running down to the ring and starts to beat away on both men. He eventually knocks Bundy to the outside. Laurinaitis turns around, points at him and calls for the bell. The crowd don’t like this one bit. Its announced Hogan as the winner due to a disqualification of Thesz. Savage is about to confront Laurinaitis when the Twin Towers blindside him. They both beat down on him as Bundy gets back in the ring. Along with Hogan, the four men beat down on Savage and Thesz. Akeem and Bossman beat down Thesz and Savage with chairs. There are multiple chair shots on both men for a good 5 minutes. Bossman targets the damaged right arm of Savage during this assault. The Tag Team Champions exit and leave the Fallen Macho Man and Thesz to Hogan and Bundy. Bundy hits a big splash on Thesz, while Hogan delivers his leg drop to Savage. Both men are beaten badly. Laurinaitis looks on, delighted with what has unfolded.
Jerry: Ah this is horrible, can we get them some help out there. Laurinaitis had this all planned. The SOB!!!
Hogan gets out a spray-paint can. He rips Randy Savages t-shirt off. He writes on Savages back “Hollywood”. How humiliating.
Jerry: Ah this is disgusting. The numbers game again has caught up on Savage. Damn it!Jimmy Hart on his megaphone: “Take this all in everyone. The same thing is going to happen again at WrestleCade and there’s nothing anyone can do about it. I guarantee it, and as we all know by now, a Jimmy Hart guarantee always happens boy.”
Hulk Hogan grabs a mic and looks to the fallen Macho Man: “I’m the man; I’m the icon of our era. When your with Hollywood, when you believe in a man that made life happen for you. The bottom line is when you love me, when you worship me, you love me for life! Because Hollywood Hogan is just too….sweet!!”
Hart raises both Hogan's and Bundy’s arms as Laurinaitis looks on clapping as we go off air.
Next week on Adrenaline:
1. How will Randy Savage respond? Or will he even respond? Has the Macho Man been finally broken by Hollywood Hogan and Jimmy Hart? Can he counteract the numbers game?
2. How will Goldberg respond after Rybacks ambush? Can he overcome his losing streak?
3. With a four way title match confirmed, who will emerge as the favourites in the tag division? Will Joe Henning continue being so imperfect? Will The Twin Towers have to watch their backs after their assault of Randy Savage and Lou Thesz? Can the LIB's and The Mega Plowers establish themselves as teams to be reckoned with?
4. How will the Bellas get on, on "Ricks Rude Awakening"? Will Pedro Morales seek retribution on Rude?

Welcome to BWA Raw!
Live in Memphis, TennesseeOn the BWA Raw pre-show (linked) the past year of the promotion was recapped with particular focus being placed on the stable known as "The Aces of the Universe" and the rumours surrounding new talent joining the BWA most notably the UFC's Phil "CM Punk" Brooks who has further fueled speculation by letting it be known that he has front row tickets for tonights show.
The crowd seem really pumped tonight as the Pyros go off and we prepare for the start of the show but they almost blow the roof off the arena when this music hits and Memphis wrestling Icon Jerry "The King" Lawler comes out.
There had been a rumour circulating that he might show up tonight but nobody expected him to debut in the BWA by opening the show here and the resulting reception is overwhelming. Eventually the Jerry chants die down enough for him to get on the Mic"Thank you, thank you.... you know this is one moment where it really couldn't be more true to say... It's good to be the king! In fact it's great, great to be here in my hometown of Memphis and great to be in my new home The BWA! a place where they are willing to let The King be The King and speak my mind on some issues ive been bottling up recently."
"Last year I competed and was the booker for a little known promotion called MNG productions... and I did one hell of a job even if I say so myself. Unfortunately once their road to Wrestlemania was gone and out of the way so was the chairman of that organization. He disappeared and left ol Jerry here holding the bag and I tell you that place was a mess, you know what im talking about don't ya Punk? Jerry points to CM Punk who is sat in the front row and whom headlined MNGs Wrestlemania last year. After a little smile Punk nods in agreement.
"I tell you backstage in that place there were more tragedies than shakespeare coulda come up with, hell he (pointing to Punk again) wouldn't have walked out if that place wasn't so F...f'd up. But now... now I have a chance to put that place behind me, here in the BWA The King will do what the king does best and thats put on one hell of a show for the fine people of Memphis!"
"O thats right, I'm in charge tonight...(the crowd are loving this)... I'm running the show here in the BWA now and you know what, I think to celebrate that fact we are going to have a World Heavyweight title match right here tonight in Memphis! The BWA World champion Hiroshi Tanahashi will defend his BWA World title against the living legend Mil Mascaras!"
"And I'm not done yet, the tag titles will be on the line as The Brisco Brothers will take on Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi! speaking of those boys I want to introduce to you the newest signing to team BWA and a man who has been rumoured to be the new fourth member of the Aces of the Universe....Antoni Inoki!
Jerry notes that it was not indeed he who signed Inoki but that despite what he has heard he is happy to be able to be able to welcome him to the company. When questioned on what it was he had heard Lawler seems reluctant to say it but eventually elaborates saying how he had heard that Inoki who sold his controlling shares in NJPW after Tanahashi and Nakamura jumped ship to the BWA last year was looking to invest in this company. Lawler also admits that having only just taking over the booking he wasn't too excited at the potential that someone else might want to run the show.
Inoki takes the Mic and thanks Jerry for the welcome and talks about how great an honor it is to be there and then admits he would love to run such a great promotion but says now is not the time to discuss such matters publicly nor is it the time to discuss who would book the show if any such a takeover should take place.
Lawler does not look too happy at Inoki's response and seems to be shaking his head and muttering something along the lines of "no thats not what time it is"
Just then we hear bellowing throughout the arena "It's time! It's time! It's Vader time!"
Announcer 1 (good old JD) : No it can't be!
Announcer 2 (BH): Is that another guy jumping ship from MNG to the BWA?
#JD: My gawd it is, It's the Mastadon, Big Van Vader is here!
Vader makes his way down to the ring, enters and goes face to face with Inoki who really looks like he didn't expect this at all. Did Lawler though? The local man made a quick exit from the ring and headed to the back leaving the Japanese legend alone to see what the big man wants. Vader motions for Inoki to give him the microphone. Instead he seems to be asking him something, perhaps wondering what he's doing here but the beast of a man says nothing in return and just continues to demand the mic.
#BH: Be smart Antonio, give the man what he wants
It seems Inoki is thinking the same thing as he slowly hands it over and it looks like we are going to hear from Vader as after a few moments of contemplation he raises the mic up but then just as he looks ready to speak the deceptively quick big man spring into action cracking the microphone over Inoki's head. He is sent stumbling backwards but isn't out and turns to face his attacker but in doing so turns into a monstrous Lariat. The Japanese native is then the victim of a Vader Slam (Running powerslam) as the boos start to ring out throughout the arena. Unluckily for Inoki though public opinion does not sway Vader as he then ascends the turnbuckle before hitting a Moonsault so impressive the crowd is temporarily silenced. Boos quickly return though as Vader makes his way up the ramp and medical personnel are left to check on the downed Inoki,
First match: Pat Patterson vs Julio Fantastico
On his way to the ring the Patterson stops to greet CM Punk. As he does he is attacked from behind by Senor fantastico.
Julio rolls him into the ring and continues the pre-match assault before catching Pat in a roll-up pin almost immediately when the bell is rung to begin the match. Luckily he kicks out just before the 3 count and then slowly Patterson is able to recover from the heelish attack and perhaps as a result how dominant he is throughout the following match impresses more than you would expect from a match against a so called jobber . It also establishes the canadian grappler as a face before a boston crab submission leads to the victory
Winner: Pat PattersonBackstage Segment:
Mike McGuirk is backstage with Jesse Ventura whose opinion he seeks on Jerry Lawler supposedly being in charge of BWA Raw. Ventura questions what exactly one would call being in control if someone could claim that is what they just saw from the Memphis native adding that he had heard a rumor that if Inoki does take over it'l be him asked to take over but that they should know he would see it as merely a stepping stone to a higher office. McGuirk moves past that though and onto Ventura's own recent controversy and how it has effected how he interacts with he BWA universe.
Ventura's response may have raised some eyesbrows though:
" You know what Mike, I would rather be uncomfortable with the truth than to be lied to in comfort. That's just my nature. There might be a god-damned media conspiracy against me cos I sued the American Sniper but you know what... I Won. I was right and that means that with the star f*ckers in the BWA universe it won't change a damn thing as now they can justify cheering me cos the reason i'm here in Memphis tonight is simple... beating some trash and then geting some Ass!
McGuirk shakes his head disapprovingly as "The Body" walks away
#BH: Do you believe the balls on that man?
#JD: Yeah I think i'd reverse the order if I was him considering the standard of women he usually picks up!
#BH: Beating some ass and getting some t... wait no I mean his comments about The American Hero whose family he sued
#JD: Shhhh here he comes
Jesse "The Body" Ventura vs Localo Joberino
*As Ventura makes his entrance the announcers reference how he has recently been taking a fan out of the audience after his matches to "Celebrate with backstage" and question how much self respect these ladies must have*
The Body makes short work of the local wrestler and after a few big clotheslines, then finishes him off with his Body Breaker Inverted bearhug.
Winner: Jesse Ventura
Ventura then proceeds to act like he has just won the world title, over celebrating his victory and as they have the last few weeks since these antics first began the crowd give him a very mixed reaction with ever increasing boos. Despite that it doesn't take him long to find a attractive young blonde lady wearing a CM Punk shirt who is willing to join his celebration backstage. "You'll do" is what he is heard to exclaim before lifting her over the barricade squeezing the young ladies backside as he does.
Backstage SegmentSean Mooney interviews Seiji Sakaguchi asking him about how Nakamura has been acting a little odd recently and if he knows how to approach such an erratic opponent. Sakaguchi reminds everyone about all the great things he has done in his career before coming to the BWA and all the stars he has beaten in the past. He says that they are all household names here in America but Sakaguchi...nobody knows who the hell he is! tonight though he says that will all change and if Nakamura acts even half as erratic in the ring as he has out of it recently then he will exploit it and that beating Nakamura will just be his first step on the road to the top and the acclaim he deserves.
Shinsuke Nakamura vs Seiji Sakaguchi
If the WHC main event is to top this one it will have some way to go with both fighters pulling out their A game in this match up with Sakaguchi in particular impressing the crowd at first. It was After a full 20mins of back and forth action when the crowd had well and truly gotten into it that He (Sakaguchi) locked in a sleeperhold It looks like Nakamura is fading and eventually after almost a minute in the hold half of which he spent trying to fight out of it his eyes close and his body posture seems to suggest he's out. The ref raises his hand as the camera zooms in close on him, 1 - arm drops near limp, 2 - The same again, is this one over? then as the ref raises his hand for a third time Nakamura's eyes shoot open wide but with his eyeballs rolled (undertaker like) back so all you can see is white. This image along with the fact that he starts chanting in Japanese sends the ref stumbling back in shock as if he has seen a ghost.
The refs reaction along with seeing a close up of Nakamuras face on the Titantron also causes Sakaguchi to release the sleeper and step back aghast at what he sees. This was a mistake as seemingly the second he is freed from the hold Nakamuras weird trance like state reverts back to normality and he slingshots himself of the rope before hitting a hugely impressive one leg dropkick to his opponent. Everyone is stunned but Nakamura seems 100% in the moment and as Sakaguchi tries to rise back to his feet he is caught by the Boma Ye Knee strike. 1-2-3!
Winner: Shinsuke NakamuraAfter the match when Sakaguchi finally comes around and gets to a knee...BOOM!...another Boma Ya Knee strike is delivered sending him crashing to the mat and causing many in the arena to fear for his health. Nakamura though is just laughing Maniacally in ring until he suddenly stops and turns his attention back to his fallen countryman. He places one hand on either side of his head and lifts him up by the head. Then while holding him in this position he goes face to face with him and then just like earlier he rolls his eyes back into his head and starts chanting in Japanese.
A moment later he drops him back to the mat and starts stumbling around a little disorientated himself before heading over to one of the corners where a young Japanese boy hands him a little bag from which he produces an electric razor. He grabs Sakaguchi's head and quickly shaves off big portions of his hair while shouting "I am your lord!" in between some Japanese. Eventually extra referees and security forcefully separate Nakamura from Sakaguchi but as they help the latter to the back Nakamura (who is being held at ringside until his opponent is safely gone) continues to shout the same bilingual phrases at him.
#BH: Wow... I really don't know what to say about that and it takes a lot to leave me speechless
#JD: Well lets see what a very special member of the BWA universe in attendance here tonight thought of all that then
#BH: Good idea, Josh, have you got him Josh?Josh Matthews interviews CM PunkJosh Matthews: So Punk, can you tell me your thoughts on what you just witnessed?
CM Punk: "That was intense... I mean normally I'd tell you this has nothing to do with me and to focus on the product but what can I say... some of that was a little familiar."
Josh: "What do you mean? I've never seen anything like that before
Punk: Really? great wrestler, thinks he is a god, shaving heads in the ring... I mean im flattered and all but
Josh: Are you trying to say that Nakamura was copying what you did previously?
Punk: well I'm not sure if thats how I would phra...
Just then the interview is interrupted by none other than Shinsuke Nakamura who pushes Josh out of the way to get to Punk but the security who had been ushering him up the aisle quickly (the moment he gets physical with the interviewer) get between them. There is a brief stare down as Punk seems to laugh off Nakamura while asking him "Yeah and what?" before suddenly Nakamura's head lunges forward and he spits right onto Punks face! after a moment of shock the security is called into action to keep Punk from jumping the barricade and more appear on the scene to force Nakamura who is now once again laughing like a crazy person into the back.
#BH: Dear god have you ever seen anything like this?
#JD: Never, that is just, thats so...
#BH: We sincerely want to apologize to everyone watching, BWA superstars don't usually act like that. I don't know what has gotten into that young man
#JD: He really has not been himself for some time now but that...
A quick promo plays hyping next months BWA PPV
Backstage segmentTodd Grisham interviews BWA Tag Team Champions Kenta Kobashi & Mitsuharu Misawa and first asks them about what they just witnessed from the former "Ace of The Universe" Shinsuke Nakamura. They emphasize that he is indeed not associated with them anymore and that it was erratic behavior like that which lead to their parting ways but that if they can help him get back on the right track in anyway they would be more than happy to. They talk about how their close friend Antonio Inoki was also subjected to a shocking assault tonight before they arrived at the arena and that they are still trying to get word on his condition after he was taken to a local medical facility. Todd asks them if with everything going on they will be able to focus on their match up next and they simply say the will have to because one slip up and a team like The Briscos will punish you
#BH: It really has been one hell of a start here on BWA Raw!
#JD: Yeah I honestly wouldnt blame the tag champs if they were a little preoccupied with thoughts of their friend
#BH: well JD here they come now, it's time for our first title match of the night!BWA Tag Team titles match
Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi vs The Brisco Brothers
The challengers really push the champs to the limit here in what most say would have been a 5 star match until the unexpected happens once more. At one point all four combatants are in the ring as Jack Brisco is breaking up a pin attempt on his brother by Mitsuharu Misawa and Kobashi is tring to forcably stop him and in doing so knocks the older Brisco and himself to the outside. The two look to be about to get into it but show each other respect and back away Brisco getting back onto the apron in his corner which they are next to and Kobashi walking back around the ring towards his corner. Suddenly what looks like a fan in a hoodie hops over the guard rail though and attacks Kobashi from behind , after a few viscious rights and lefts he pulls off the hood and OMG! it's Samoa Joe. Joe then grabs his disorientated opponent up onto his shoulders and hits a muscle buster on the outside before leaving up the ramp. The ref and Mitsuharu Misawa had been distracted by the action in the ring but now that action becomes a 2 on 1 and slowly MIsawa cannot take it anymore and the Briscos take turns in locking in figure four leg locks which eventually Misawa taps to!
Winners and new tag team champions The Brisco Brothers
JD: Bah Gawd We have new tag champs and it's all thanks to Samoa Joe of all people
BH: That's right the hottest free agent in all of Pro Wrestling seems to have signed with the BWA and what an impact he has made on his first night.
JD: and what a night it has been BH!
BH: That's right but I don't think things are going to calm down just yet as our man backstage is trying to get an explanation for his actions from Shinsuke Nakamura right now!
Backstage SegmentKevin Kelly interviews Shinsuke Nakamura about his actions earlier tonight. Stood beside them is Nakamura's opponent from tonights match Seiji Sakaguchi and it seems he has had his new hairdo finished as he now sports a Nakamura-esque partially shaved look. Nakamura is swaying from side to side when Kelly asks him if he would like to apologize to the BWA universe and to CM Punk for his actions tonight eliciting a sudden stop and a look of disdain before he starts screaming その小さな雌犬に謝罪...
A few seconds after his rant finishes Nakamura grabs the Mic off the interviewer and gives it to Sakaguchi before giving him an order in Japanese 今それを言う!
Sakaguchi: "Nakamura says (Nakamura screams something), My Lord says that nobody should be talking about CM Punk. He says that what you witnessed out there tonight was only the start and for that ummm (Nakamura:あく!) Piece of scum to suggest he was imitating anyone else sickens him.
He then looks at Nakamura who screams 最初の犠牲者! before saying "CM Punk will be the first victim"
#BH: What in the world does that mean? and why in gods name is Skaguchi taking orders from that madman?!?
#JD: I have no idea but I wouldn't want to mess with that nutjob!
#BH: Well I am sure the boys on the post show will have a lot to say about that but for now we have our blockbuster main event to get toWorld Heavyweight Championship Match
Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Mil Mascaras
A back and forth match that would be worthy of its place main eventing any PPV let alone the season premier of BWA Raw comes to a close as Mascaras hits a sweet vertical suplex and then goes up top for his diving crossbody but at the last second the champion rolls out of the way. Mil lands hard on his chest which he seemed to injure earlier in the match after a dive through the ring ropes lead to him colliding with the ringside barricade. Tanahashi without missing a beat then ascended the turnbuckle himself and hit his High Fly Flow Frog splash. Again this causes huge pain to the challengers abdomen and perhaps spotting this Tanahashi decided not to go for the pin but instead locks in a cloverleaf submission which Mascaras eventually taps out to.
Winner: Hiroshi Tanahashi
That was one hell of a match up but a deserved winner has emerged and Mascaras seems unashamed of pointing out he was beaten by the better man on the night and a man who deserves his respect. The two shake hands before Mascaras exits the ring leaving the champ in the ring to play us out on his air guitar!
He is celebrating now but it hasn't exactly been the best night for The Aces of The Universe. A shock Samoa Joe debut cost Misawa & Kobashi the tag titles, their associate Antonio Inoki was sent to the hospital by Big Van Vader and their former ally Shinsuke Nakamura seemingly snapped live on national television. One can only wonder what will happen next week!

The crowd is hot tonight as the commentary team welcome us to Monday Night Chaos. The tron lights up and sexy boy hits, as the ring announcer introduces.........Shawn Michaels! Shawn comes out to a chorus of boo’s and he looks very sombre as he uncharacteristically walks slowly to ringside. Shawn pauses for a moment while his music cuts and declines to pose as he normally would. Shawn takes in all of the boos before talking a mic in hand.
Shawn says that Firstly he doesn’t have to justify himself to anyone but he will let people know what’s going on inside the head of old H-B-K. He says last week was supposed to be his moment as he surprised the world by showing up as number 2 entrant in the Championship Rumble. Shawn says everything was set up, with Rumble matches being his forte and God on his side that he was on his way to a historic victory. That was until Jake Roberts got in his way.
Commentator 1 : Shawn was in the rumble from the start and was on fire, though so was Jake.
Michaels says Jake ruined everything. He says when his feet touched the floor he felt abandoned by not only the fans who cheered for Jake, but by God too. He felt like Jake had taken everything away in one swoop. Shawn says he wondered why everyone forsaken him in favor of Jake? Michaels claims it was then that he came to the realization that he’s on his own and all alone. Michaels says all that ran through his mind was to make Jake pay for ruining his moment and taking everything he had from him.
The fans boo Shawn as his tone gets darker by the sentence.
Shawn Michaels : So I made him pay last week and I will continue to make him suffer for what he did to me. For a man without God is a man with nothing to lose. I’m going to take it all from him just like he took it all from me!
Shawn drops the mic and walks to the back, looking silently angry and a million miles from his old self, as the fans boo him back to the stone age as we cut to commercials.We are back to ringside and its time its the first match of the evening. The New Age Outlaws are out first and Billy Gunn is in singles action versus Shannon Moore.
Shannon Moore versus B.A. Billy Gunn w/Road Dogg Jessie James
Shannon Moore gets an early flurry of offense but its short lived as Billy takes control and dominates. During the match Shane Helms appears and cheers on Shannon and tries to get behind his good friend. Its in vain as Billy hits the Fame Asser for the win at the 5 minute mark.
Winner : Billy Gunn
Shannon slumps out of the ring and Helms carries him to the back. Road Dogg slides in the ring with a mic in hand. He says he and Billy tonight are in a ‘pay it forward’ kind of mood and that later tonight they will ‘do their good deed for the day!’.
Commentator 1: What in the hell does that mean?
The Outlaws head to the back as we cut to commercial.We are back and we see Jake Roberts arrive in the parking lot. He’s searching for Shawn asking production crew members his whereabouts, looking like a man possessed. Jake gets no where with his search and goes looking for Michaels through out the building.We switch to ringside and much to the shock of the crowd, ..............
Out struts the co-owner of Beyond Chaos Vince McMahon. Vince walks out to address the crowd, who don’t really know how to react to him. Vince welcomes everyone to MONDAY NIGHT CHAOS in typical over the top Vince fashion. The fans still are hesitant to react to Vince as McMahon says Chaos is what each of them is going to get. Vince is in great form as he in forms the crowd about a historic night in Beyond Chaos’s existence. He says that right now, in this very ring he will call out Jeff Jarrett and they will come face to face in the ring for the first time ever. He says a lot happened in the past with himself and Jeff, but just like himself and Eric Bischoff, they settled their differences because it was best for business. Vince then calls out Jeff Jarrett...
Jeff Jarrett’s music plays after a bit of a pause and out comes Vince’s fellow co owner of Beyond Chaos and his wife Karen. He stands at the ramp, kisses his wife and makes his way down the aisle as Karen walks to the back. Jarrett’s music cuts and Vince and he shake hands. Vince plays up again how historic a moment this is. Vince then congratulates Jarrett on his beautiful Wife and says he must be a lucky man. Vince says that’s its been a hell of a few weeks with whats gone on behind the scenes to get a deal in place and says its been a pleasure buying into the company to help Jarrett out and help Beyond Chaos get back on track Vince says that as everyone knows, that he acquired a 51 percent share, saying its all he wanted and all he needed to become a majority shareholder, asking Jeff isn’t he correct. Jeff agrees and Vince goes on saying that since the purchase was announced that the question on everyone’s lips has been, why did he buy into Beyond Chaos to help out bitter enemy Jeff Jarrett out?
Vince says everyone’s been speculating why and says they have been asking was it for his love of wrestling? or was it because of a vision of making money and many other reasons. Vince says those reasons are kind of true but they aren’t the real reason. Vince then asks the crowd and more importantly he asks Jarrett does he know the real reason he bought in to Beyond Chaos?
Vine McMahon : The reason I bought in was YOU JEFF! More importantly, I want to RUIN YOU JEFF!
Jarretts face drops as while Vince continues to tell his story similar to a Bond Villain telling 007 his plan for world domination.
Vince McMahon : You see Jeff, you’re my white whale, actually more of a cockroach ....you’re my white cockroach if you will. You see, no matter how much I try to crush you, I cant seem to kill you. Back in 2001 I fired you live on TV, and I assumed that be the end of J-E-double F. But you came back and not only into wrestling but back with your own TNA wrestling company. So I try to squash that and sure enough I crushed TNA so bad that its no longer a reputable company and no one gives a damn about it.. So I’m there thinking, Jeff wont be back but sure enough Cockroach Jeff comes back and not only has a new company but he has bought my sons company. You just wouldn’t die would you?
The arena is filled with boo’s as Vince looks 100 percent more crazy than when he started speaking.
Vince McMahon : So when you came looking for help after all these years, I saw an opportunity to rid the world of wrestling of Jeff Jarrett. I hatched my master plan. I bought in, I bought in just enough so I could be majority shareholder and control the company.
Vince looks insanely happy while Jarrett looks devastated.
Vince McMahon : Now I cant fire you, but that would be too easy anyway. Besides I’ve done that before and it was only a short term solution. This way I control you’re company, rather my company. This way I have you by the balls Jarrett. You cant walk away cause you’re broke. You cant get rid of me cause you need me and this company needs me.
Jeff Jarrett : You dirty rotten son of a bitch!
Jarrett looks shattered as Vince grins from ear to ear like a Cheshire cat. The boos continue but Vince smiles and shrugs it off
Vince McMahon : Now, what can I do to make you squirm Jarrett? What can I do huh? Lets start by calling out your two good, loyal pals, Abyss and Matt Morgan! Guys come on down please.
Morgan and Abyss walk out to no music and climb into the ring. Vince asks them have they both been loyal to Jarrett over the years and tells them he knows that they have had Jeff’s back over the years . Both men reluctantly nod in agreement as Vince ponders if we can test Jarrett’s loyalty to them. Vince says that since hes the controlling shareholder, that he can fire both men right here right now if he wishes and will deem them surplus to requirements and wish them the best in their future endeavours. Abyss and Morgan look distraught as Jarrett pleads with Vince to leave them out of it and says his beef is with him and not these two.
Vince McMahon : Well ill tell you what, since your so concerned I wont fire them Jeff. I wont fire them once you become the latest member of an exclusive club!!!
Commentator 1 : He doesn’t mean? Oh dear god!
Vince McMahon : That’s right, these two can keep their jobs if you join the Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club!
Jarrett is caught between a rock and a hard place as Vince smiles psychotically.
Commentator 1 : Vince cant be serious
Vince asks Jeff how loyal he is to Abyss and Morgan and says if he is truly loyal he will get down on his knees, pucker up and kiss his sexy back rear end. Jarrett doesn’t know what to do as he looks sick to his stomach at the situation. Morgan has had enough and pleads with Vince, saying hes got a new baby at home and cant afford to lose his job.
Vince McMahon : I wont let you go if J-E-double F here kisses my A-double S!
Jarrett pauses and mulls it over for what seems like an eternity as Vince continues to taunt him.
Jeff Jarrett : I’ll.......I’ll do it!
Vince McMahon : You’ll do what, exactly Jeff? Tell the people?
Jeff looks defeated as he replies.
Jeff Jarrett : Ill ....I’ll kiss your ass.
Vince seems pleased as his grin gets even wider. Vince undoes his belt and drops his pants and presents his rear end to Jarrett.
Vince McMahon : There you go Jarrett, KISS MY ASS DAMMIT!
Jarrett looks at Morgan and Abyss and both guys thank him as he slowly walks over to Vince. Jarrett, at a snails pace, drops to his knees and stares into the black hole that is McMahons backside.
Commentator 2 : I cant believe hes going to do this.
The fans are booing mercifully as Jarrett reluctantly pecks Vinces ass. Jarrett looks visibly sick as he spits and winces at what hes just done while Vince looks very amused.
Vince McMahon : See Jarrett, you’re my bitch now! And heres the real kick in the teeth. Boys.......
Vince looks to both Abyss and Morgan and they smile back, before savagely attacking Jarrett.
Commentator 1 : What the hell? Morgan and Abyss, Jarretts loyal friends have turn on Jeff. Whats going on. Vince, still with his pants around his ankles, taunts Jarrett over the mic.
Vince McMahon : Jarrett, allow me to introduce my new security team! How does it feel to know you’ve kissed my ass for nothing?
Vince then directs traffic as Abyss and Matt Morgan take part Jarrett. Vince then instructs Jarrett to get up, as Morgan and Abyss pick up his limp body. Vince stares into the glazed over eyes of Jarrett.
Vince McMahon : Jeff, its time to join really The Vince McMahon Kiss My ass Club!!!!
Morgan and Abyss adjust Jeff into position as Vince reveals his bare bottom. The two former Jarrett guys push Jeff’s head into Vince’s rear end! Vince seems very proud of himself as Jeff’s head is rubbed up against his bare ass. Jarrett is dropped down to the mat as Vince stands over him taunting him while zipping up his trousers. Vince can be heard saying ‘this is only the beginning Jarrett’ as his music plays. Jarrett is left lying in the ring as Vince celebrates with his hired guns Matt Morgan and Abyss.
Commentator 1 : Morgan and Abyss have turned their backs on live long friend Jeff Jarrett. Vince has double crossed Jarrett in order to ruin him. This truly is Chaos!
Commercial break!We return and we see Shannon Moore sitting in the locker room after being helped in my Shane Helms. Shannon is looking depressed after yet another loss however Helms is trying to inspire Shannon.
Shane Helms : Shannon, don’t sweat it buddy. I used to be like you. When I was younger I found it hard to catch a break, I was losing every week and it seemed like I was never ever gonna turn things around. Then one day I looked inside of myself and discovered the man who was truly inside me....I found my true identity,..... I found “The Hurricane”. When I was the Hurricane I felt invincible and I believed I could beat any one and with that attitude I beat a lot of tough and mean opponents with the confidence I acquired. What I’m trying to say is, look inside yourself and find your true self, and before you know it you will catch your break. I just know it.
Shannon ponders the wise words of Helms as we cut to ringsideIts time for a match as The Hart Dynasty are making their way down the aisle. We recap last weeks show and the commentary team speculate if they are on the same page. Out next is Sweet Stan Lane and Beautiful Bobby Eaton, The Beyond Chaos Tag Champs, The Midnight Express to a great pop.
Hart Dynasty versus The Midnight Express (non title)
Harry Smith and Sweet Stan Lane start off and both knock lumps out of each other. Lane gets the advantage and Harry Smith needs a tag. However when he looks for one Tyson Kidd is seen waving to the crowd with his back to Smith letting poll axed from behind by Beautiful Bobby Eaton. Once again Smith gets the chance to look for a tag, but this time Kidd is on his phone again not concentrating on the action in the ring.
Commentator 1 : Tyson Kidd just tweeted the following : bored out of my tree #waitingforatag
Smith once again gets dragged back to the Midnight Express corner and takes a beating. Eventually Smith then clotheslines Lane and drags his own body towards his corner but this time Tyson is busy taking photo of himself.
Smith makes it this time and confronts Kidd. Both yell at each other and this gives the Bobby Eaton the chance to nail Smith with a neckbreaker from behind for the ..1....2....3!
Winners : Midnight Express
The Champs leave in celebration as Tyson stands over a hurt Smith. Smith struggles to his feet and is met with a stunning shining wizard kick to the skull from Tyson.
Commentator 1: Is this the end of the Hart Dynasty?
Tyson takes a pic of Harrys fallen body as he walks off pretty smug with himself messing with his phone as we cut to commercial.We are back and Vince McMahon is backstage being interviewed and is along side his new security team of Matt Morgan and Abyss. Vince says hes proud of Matt and Abyss for seeing where their true loyalty lies and that this is only the beginning of Jarrett misery and promises more next week.
Suddenly Jake Roberts appears and business picks up! Jake demands to have a match with Shawn tonight. Vince says that he loves the fire inside Jake and understands Jakes anger. Vince says he cant give Jake vs Shawn away for free and instead has already booked Jake vs Shawn for the Heavyweight Title in 3 weeks time on PPV. Vince says though, that the contract signing will be scheduled in the ring for later tonight. Jake says that’s all well and good, but Shawn wont make it til the PPV because hes going to end him tonight for putting his hands on his Son Aaron.
Vince gets angry at Jake and asks him to control himself but Jake storms off again looking for HBK. The camera stays on Vince though who says hes got an idea to control Jake til the PPV.We switch backstage to the parking garage and the tag team champs Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane are throwing there luggage in their rent a car and about to leave the arena when suddenly they are attacked with steel chairs by the New Age Outlaws. The 2 cocky young upstarts destroy the Express with vicious shots and say sarcastically that ‘its time to do their good deed for the day and help the old folks to there abode’.
Commentator 1 : What does that mean???
Billy and Road Dogg proceed to tie the champs up with rope and gag their mouths with duck tape and proceed to dump both men into the boot of their rent a car. Billy slams the boot and says its time to drop the old folks home.
Billy and Road Dogg grab the car keys, enter the vehicle and speed off out of the arena!
Commentator 2: Where are the Outlaws taking the Tag Champs!Nigel McGuinness Challenge
The IC Champ is in the ring with a mic and once again is issuing a challenge to anyone in the locker room to hang with him for over 5 minutes. Nigel runs down the crowd and dares anyone with the stones to come out and try hang with him. Out comes young rookie ...Timothy Thatcher
Thatcher, who eliminated McGuinness from the Rumble last week, strolls out to answer the challenge. We see a recap as Thatcher makes his way out of the elimination and the beating Nigel dished out in retaliation.
Nigel McGuinness : You’re the punk who thought it be a laugh to eliminated me from the Rumble. Now you think you can hang with me? Huh?
Nigel slaps Timothy with an open hand and the bell rings.
Nigel McGuinness versus Timothy Thatcher (non title, 5 min challenge)
Nigel dominates Thatcher at first but soon gets cocky as while playfully slapping Thatcher, Nigel lets his guard down and is rolled up for a quick 2 count. Nigel then tries to charge at Thatcher for a lariat but gets caught in a crucifix pin for another close 2 count. Nigel then goes for a boot to the gut of Timothy but its caught by Thatcher and countered with a leg drag and pin attempt for another 2 count at the 3 min mark.
Thatcher eventually gets clobbered by a hard lariat by McGuinness and trapped in a London Dungeon submission at 3.35. The clock is ticking but Timothy refuses to tap. Nigel wrenches the move tighter but Thatcher holds on and tries for the rope at 4.30. Nigel drags him back to the centre and applies the hold again. Timothy is gonna tap but then the 5 minute buzzer goes just before he taps....Thatcher just about outlasts the challenge and gets a title shot at the PPV.
Winner : Timothy Thatcher
Timothy continues to tap but Nigel doesn’t realise the hold doing serious damage to Thatcher. Referees come out and break it up but the damage has been done. We cut to commercial with Thatcher in agony while McGuinness looks on in a huff.We are back and as with wrestling, a camera is magically in the car that the New Age Outlaws are driving with the Tag Team Champions, The Midnight Express, tied up in the boot.
Billy Gunn : I hope you guys are comfy in there!
Road Dogg : That boot is fairly spacious to be honest.
The camera soon pulls up and next to building which we cant quite make out yet. The Outlaws get out, open the boot and pummel the tied up Eaton and Lane some more before tossing them out of the car boot to the ground. Even though its dark, we can see a lovely well kept garden and 2 double doors and a sign that Billy reads out loud...
Billy Gunn : Ah, Calmwood Retirement Village!
Commentator 1 : what the hell are they doing at an old peoples home?
Billy and Road Dogg then throw both Eaton and Lane through the double doors and yell into the receptionist. ...
Road Dogg : We found these two old timers out wandering the medication aisle in Wallmart, its waaaay past their bedtime!
Billy Gunn : Make sure they get looked after.
Road Dogg : (directed at the Midnight Express ) Get the hint gramps, those tag belts our as good as ours.
The Outlaws leave and speed off leaving the Tag Champs tied up and in a heap on the floor of the retirement village!
Commentator 1 : I cant believe the actions of the Outlaws. This is unbelievable. They’ve dumped the Midnight Express off at a retirement home!We are back and in the ring is an elaborate set. The commentators say this is the new talk segment that Vince commissioned and wonder who the host and who the guest will be? The set is covered with cloaks as The ring announcer speaks :
Ring Announcer : Ladies and Gentlemen, please rise for the host of Beyond Chaos’s new talk show......The jersey Shores own...Enzo Amore!
A noisy loud techno dance tune pipes through the PA system and out comes Enzo Amore, dressed outrageously. He fist pumps his way down the aisle and gets on the mic as he enters the ring. Enzo welcomes everyone to his new talk show, THE PARTY PENTHOUSE!
A firework goes off and the cloaks on the set drop to reveal the set of The Party Penthouse. Enzo points to a head height neon sign with “Enzos Party Penthouse” in huge lettering on it! We see two caged dancers above the ring, a mock bar with glass window behind it, a sweet disco ball and laser machine as well as comfy furry zebra print stools. Enzo says hes been asked to bring the controversy back to wrestling talk shows and he personally guarantee that this show will be off the hook.
Enzo remembers that back in the day, that talk shows were cool and they were the most talked about segments on TV. He reminisces about Pipers Pit and Beefcakes Barbershop and says that over the years they lost their way and their Mojo. Enzo says it got to the point where they just plain sucked! The fans are indifferent so far as Enzo asks what do they think of his set. Enzo goes on to introduce his first guest on...Magnum TA!
Magnums theme hits and out come the man himself to a wild reaction. Enzo says he apologizes in advance because his questions will be so hard hitting. Enzo asks if he’d like a cocktail, which Magnum declines. Enzo accuses him of being a bit rude before asking what the TA in Magnum TA stands for? Enzo speculates if it means ‘terribly awful?’ or ‘ Totally Atrocious? ‘much to the displeasure of Magnum. Enzo asks was he named after an Ice cream bar which again doesn’t sit well with his guest. Enzo quips that if judging by Magnums shirt and boots that it could stand for Tacky Attire!
The fans boo as Enzos jokes as Magnum looks irate but Amore back tracks.
Enzo Amore : I was joking son, relax. Chill. Now last week, you participated in the Championship Rumble and this happened.....Roll the footage
On the tron plays Magnum TA eliminating Owen Hart from the rumble and the aftermath of Owen falling badly and appearing to injure his leg severally. Previously unseen footage shows Owen screaming backstage as he gets medical attention.
Enzo Amore : Now Im a man in the know, you know?! So I have it on good authority that Owen Hart suffered a broken ankle last week and its sooooooo bad that he is considering hanging up his boots. How does that make you feel knowing you set out to injure Owen Hart? Whats your take on that G?
Magnum TA looks annoyed as the typical heel host Enzo twists the knife....
Enzo Amore : You cant call me a liar dog, its all there for the world to see, you threw Owen over with force and he ended up severally injuring his left leg. Thats not cool G. Now he has a family to feed and a big mortgage to pay, maybe he wanted to party the rest of his life but now he may never resume his career because of you Magnum, he may never party again because of you. Isn’t that right?
Magnum gets annoyed and stares a hole in the head of Enzo
Enzo Amore : Well I can see that your in denial Bro, so allow me to introduce my next guest, The King Of Harts...OWEN HART!
Owen Harts Music hits and out comes the youngest brother in the Hart Family. Owen, looking unshaven, is on crutches and is wearing a strap on cast boot as he hobbles into the ring. Enzo puts the mic in front of Owen as the fans chant ‘Thank You Owen’ showing respect to Owen thinking hes about to announce his retirement. Owen says hes out here with a heavy heart. He says its been a tough week and that hed like to thank the fans for all their support, but its time to be honest with everyone.
Magnum talks over him and says that he truly had no intention of injuring him last week that he was just trying his best to win. Magnum says he has no idea how bad Owens leg is and that he is deeply sorry for causing this. Owen looks sad as he responds saying it was an that he understands it was an accident but the damage is done. My career is officially done and I have to retire from this business. Owen is looks so down as he blames Magnum for causing all this. Owen has tears in his eyes as he tells Magnum that according to the advice of doctors, that he’ll be lucky if he can walk again without an aid. Owen breaks down a little and Enzo comforts him as thee fans clap in respect of Owen.
Enzo Amore : Owen you’re a true certified G. No doubt. Magnum, do you not see what you’ve done. C’mon, look at what you’ve done T.A.? SEE WHAT YOU’VE DONE YOU NO GOOD COWARDLY ASS.....
Enzo gets in Magnums face and starts jabbing is finger into the chest of Magnum will continue to goad him with his words. Magnum looks angry and finally has enough as he grabs Enzo in retaliation by the scruff.
Enzo Amore : : What you going to do tough guy? End my career too? Huh big man?
Magnum teases striking Enzo but from behind we see Owen make a miraculous recover as he winds up a crutch and hits Magnum TA from behind with the crutch several times.
Commentator 1: What? I thought he was injured?
Owen unstraps the cast boot and throws it at Magnum as he continues his assault with the crutch. Owen laughs and gestures that hes outsmarted Magnum as he goes over Magnums knee and leg with the crutch.
Commentator 1 : Owen was faking the whole time. That dastardly son of a gun!
Commentator 2 : Its a miracle, don’t you see. Owens healed. Praise Jesus!
Enzo gets out of the ring as Owen drags Magnum over to the corner and locks in a vicious figure 4 leg lock around the ring post. Magnum is in agony as Owen synchs in the lock. Luckily for Magnum, a host of referees come down to break it up, but the damage is done. The fans boo Owen who has duped them all into thinking he was retiring. Magnum is attended to as Owen woo’s his way back to the locker room, very pleased with his actions as we cut to commercial.We see Vince walking backstage and heading to the ring as hes flanked by his new security team of Abyss and Morgan. Suddenly Karen Jarrett, the wife of Jeff, walks into Vince.
Karen Jarrett : You two (pointing at Abyss and Morgan) should be ashamed of yourselves, Jarrett would always have your back yet you sold out on him.....and you (turning to vince), you’re a low, rotten, disgusting son of a bitch.
Vince McMahon : My my my, aren’t you a little pretty little thing, how they hell did Jarrett bag you huh?
Karen then slaps Vince with a vicious open hand. Vince is stunned as Karen leaves. Vince brushes himself off and proclaims “Oooh, I liked that”. Vince walks off with a big smile on his face towards ringside.Its time for the contract signing and Vince McMahon is in the ring along with about 10 security guards as well as a table and some chairs. He says the security team are here to keep Jake and Shawn apart. He says he knows both Jake and Shawn want to hurt each other and that there animosity towards each other will make their match a must see match at the Chaos Rising PPV. He introduces Shawn Michaels and out comes the Heartbreak Kid himself to a chorus of boos from the fans. Vince welcomes Shawn with a warm handshake and Shawn stares coldly at the crowd before sitting down. Vince makes a big deal about Shawn taking up his accomplishments before introducing Jake Roberts.
Out comes Jake to a great response and hes got a determined look on his face. As he enters he stares a hole in the direction of Michaels as Shawn stares back. Jake goes for Shawn but is restrained my security. The guards hold both men back as Vince tells them both to calm down. He says he knows that each man wants to rip each other apart and thats fine but no one is touching each other tonight. He says that he needs to keep this match for the PPV because this is a big money match and he cant give this away for free. Vince says he needs to keep both men controlled until the PPV. So hes installed a “non contact” clause into this contact. That means nether Shawn or Jake can physically touch the other until the match at the Chaos Rising PPV.
Vince informs Shawn that once this contact is signed they will get each other one on one at the PPV but that if Shawn touches Jake that the penalty for this will be Shawn not ever receiving a Title shot ever again. Vince then addresses Jake and says the penalty for Jake is that he will be stripped of the title and will also never be able to receive a title shot again as well. So once this contact is signed, nether man can touch the other, its that simple. Shawn cuts him off abruptly.
Shawn Michaels : You don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve any of this! I hate looking at you knowing that God turned his back on me for you. At Chaos Rising I will take everything away from you just like you took it from me. Im going to hurt you so bad that even the bottle wont save you.
Jake Roberts grabs a mic and responds as the security team watch his every move.
Jake Roberts : Last week you took my moment away from me Shawn, a moment that I earned. A moment I waited all my life for. That’s one thing, don’t get me wrong you’ll pay for that. But when you put your hands on my teenage son, you crossed the line. He’s in hospital with a concussion and You will pay for what you’ve done, make no mistake, Ill make you suffer. I’ve danced with the devil Shawn and Ive been in burned by bigger and badder flames than you, so believe me when I say I will stop at nothing to make you feel the hurt I’ve suffered.
Both men stare off as Shawn grabs the contract and signs before pushing it in Jakes direction before grabbing the mic again before Jake picks up the contract to sign. Shawn smiles sarcastically in the direction of Jake.
Shawn Michaels : Sign it! Or would you rather be in a bar somewhere, drowning your sorrows in?
Jake grabs the contract in a rage at Michaels harsh words and appears to sign it as Shawn continues.
Shawn Michaels : Woah! You’re in a hurry to sign huh? I guess you wanna catch last orders in the local tavern huh?
Jake chucks the contract over his head and to the outside of the ring after signing and stares Michaels down. Vince says its official, that at Chaos Rising PPV, its Shawn Michaels versus Jake Roberts. Vince asks security you may leave the ring as they are no longer needed. Jake goes to walk away and Michaels continues to taunt him.
Shawn Michaels : Hes in a hurry, must be late for his next AA meeting!
Jake stops and stares at Michaels and looks full of Anger?
Shawn Michaels : Do you wanna hit me Jake or is hitting the bottle more important?
Jake stares daggers at Shawn who doesn’t let up, Jake then squares up face to face to Shawn. Jake stares at Michaels before going to walk away again as if he think Shawn’s not worth it.
Shawn Michaels : Going again Jake? Probably going to meet his friends aren’t you Jake......Johnny Walker and Jack Daniels...... or is it Captain Morgan?
The fans boo Michaels hard but Jake walks back to Shawn and gets up in his grill again. Michaels smiles as he lowers his head below Jakes arm
Shawn Michaels : Why don’t you DDT me Jake? Huh, c’mon you must be tempted! I know you’re a sucker for temptation Jake. Pretend Im a big tall glass of Vodka! Drink me Jake!
Jake stares at Michaels as Shawn continues to goad him.
Commentator 1 : Don’t do it Jake, he’s not worth it!
Shawn Michaels : C’mon Jake, you know you want to! Just do it! DDT me! Give in!
Jake stands over Shawn. Jake ponders DDTing Shawn for what seems like an eternity. Shawn continues to taunt Jake but Jake ducks out of the ring. Jake stands at the ring apron while Shawn keeps goading him. Jake suddenly whips up the ring apron and looks under the ring
Commentator 1 : Jake didn’t give in. Good for him.
Commentator 2: But whats he doing now?
Jake, from under the ring, reveals his trusty snake bag and unleashes his pet snake Damien into the ring!
Commentator 1 : Thats Damien! Jakes got Damien!
Jake jumps back into the ring as Michaels and Vince leap out in at record speed to avoid Damien. Jake picks up his snake and teases chasing Shawn with it. Shawn retreats to the back as Jake poses with Damien as we go off the air!.0 -
Welcome to BWA Raw!
Live from California
#BH: Greetings and salutations to our fans all around the world to what I guarantee you will be a blockbuster edition of BWA Raw
#JD: Yep, if you thought last week was something special just wait for the big announcements we have in store for you today
#BH: Jerry Lawler has already said on BWA.com that tonights main event will see the man who cost the Aces of The Universe the tag titles last week debut in ring
#JD: now that is a surprise I thought we would have to wait till Wrestlepalooza to see him compete
#BH: Well my sources are telling me that won't be the biggest surprise of the night so be prepared for a big one
#JD: You gotta always be prepare for that here in the BWA as look the action is starting already
Jack & Jerry Brisco are in the ring and they call out the former tag champions Kenta Kobashi & Mitsuharu Misawa who quickly oblige. THe Briscos say that the way in which they won the title has left a sour taste in their mouths and that they want to offer the former champs an immediate rematch for the belts so as to really prove who the better team is. The two Japanese superstars say that the Briscos are acting like true champions and showing great honor and are more than happy to accept the rematch.BWA tag team championship rematch
Mitsuharu Misawa & Kenta Kobashi vs The Brisco brothers (c)
The Briscos look great in this match and look deserving champions despite how they won the belts but the former champions come into it more and more as the match develops and arguably are the more on top duo when things fall apart akin to last week. It's Misawa and Jack brisco in the ring when suddenly we hear what sounds like the Godzilla March theme play and yes it's Samoa Joe again! Kobashi jumps down off the apron and starts screaming at joe to come down and face him as Joe just grins back in response. Perhaps this is because he sees that in ring Misawa is also fixated on the Samoan submission machine allowing Brisco to roll him up from behind for the 3 count.
Winner: The Brisco BrothersMisawa and Kobashi look like they could snap as Joe exits to the back, their tag titles are gone and the newest member of the BWA roster seems to have it out for them. They don't follow him to the back though because their attention is suddenly drawn to the titantron where current GM Jerry "The King" Lawler appears. It's not the former champs but the current champs he addresses though reminding them that in only a few weeks the BWAs biggest PPV of the year Wrestlepalooza will take place and that at that event they will have to defend their tag team titles.
Jack Brisco speaks up and says that he would like to face Misawa & Kobashi again at the PPV given how their rematch ended but Lawler says NO! he says that those two will not be teaming together at the PPV but will instead be in singles action (again the asian superstars look rightly p!ssed) but Lawler says he has scoured the earth to look for suitable opponents for you at Wrestlepalooza and here they are...
their entrance music is new to the BWA but the fans immediately recognize The Shiek & Abdullah The Butcher
Abdullah: This is The Great Sheik and I am the man they call the Madman from The Sudan, Abdullah The Butcher. We will show you the respect you deserve... by taking those belts away from you at WrestlePalooza!
Jerry Brisco Grabs the Mic from his brother: Ok your on!
Abdullah: wha ha ha ha The Shiek: aloo, aloo!
#JD: That might have been a mistake by the younger Brisco
#BH: Yeah I don't think those two even know the meaning of the word respect, they are like polar opposites to Kobashi & Misawa and to The Briscos
#JD: Well it looks like our first match for BWA Wrestlepalooza V has just been booked either way
#BH: Here look at this, it'l show you you just what kinda guys we are talking about
We return from commercial and Abdullah the Butcher has made his way down to the ring while all the others have left. He is awaiting his opponent who is announced as Antonio Inoki and gets a great reaction from the crowd in attendance.
Antonio Inoki vs Abdullah The Butcher w/The Sheik
The two are having quite a good match with the commentators being particularily impressed by Abdullah and how he hasnt resorted to his usual cheating tactics but eventually Inoki seems to be getting on top and perhaps is going for the finish when he maneuvers into position for his Manji-Gatame octopus hold when out comes Vader!. The big man makes his way straight for Inoki but the ref and then security block his way unfortunately just Vaders meer presence does enough to distract not only Inoki but also the referee who does not notice the Shiek pass something to Abdullah... it's his fork! he is notorious for using that instrument in hardcore matches and now despite this not being such a match he uses it again this time on Inoki jabbing it into his forhead and busting him open. Inoki drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring covered in blood and screaming in pain. The ref unaware of what happened starts to count him out as he stumbles up the ramp way and into the back
Abbie does celebrate the win but the focus is clearly on Vader who is now in the ring and removes his headgear before grabbing a MicVader: Inoki! you chicken get back here now!....(waits a moment but it's clear Inoki isn't coming back)... Can you not hear me, get back out here you god-damn Japanese bastard!
The security who had stopped him getting to Inoki moments earlier now surround the announce team as Bounty Hunter stands up and addresses the Mastadon.
BH: Vader, Vader... Inoki is not going to come back out here but... your here, so... why don't you let us all know what you are doing in the BWA? andwhat is your beef with Inoki anyway?
Vader looks at the commentator with pure disdain but does respond: I will make this simple so even a cretin like you can follow this BH...It is Vader time right now! ... hell it's been Vader time for a long long time but the monkeys pulling the strings in MNG productions would never book me in my rightful place, the main event. Don't believe me? ask Lawler about how he was forced to put over paid pre-madonnas like Hulk Hogan in the main event picture ahead of me and how the moment he got the chance to run the show here in the BWA and the freedom that allowed him he gave his old friend Vader a call.
You see he knows what I can do, he knows the value I bring but he is not the only one... just ask any of the Japanese stars on this roster, they all know what im all about cos I was like Godzilla in that b!tch and destroyed all in my wake. I mean I beat Antoni Inoki so bad the last time I was in Japan that the locals started a riot and now all I gotta do that again and then I will be back where I deserve to be tearing apart the main event scene in the greatest promotion in the world!
So Inoki consider yourself on notice... at Wrestlepalooza it's me vs you one more time!Backstage interview with Jerry LawlerScott Stanford tries to ask about the altercation with Vader and Inoki last week and again this week but once he mentions the big man he gets cut off.
Lawler: Vader, Vader! I tell you when that man was born his father tried to collect on his accident insurance. He is a walking accident waiting to happen and I assure you everything he is saying is nothing more than a pack of lies. Having said that we are heading to Japan and the Tokyo dome for Wrestlepalooza and if Antonio Inioki would like the chance to avenge this attack and the beating he took when he faced Vader there before then I would be more than happy to book a rematch for him (he grins).
Lawler is then asking Stanford to leave but not before Mitsuahru Misawa and Kenta Kobashi come charging into the GMs office. They are not buying his excuses for one moment and confront him over the attacks on Inoki, Samoa Joe's interference and why they won't be getting another tag title shot. He says he will answer all their questions but that they will have to wait till next week as he is still finalizing another big signing to the BWA brand at the moment. They don't look satisfied but security ensure they don't cause trouble.
A promo airs for the newest episode of the monday night wars talking about how these federations continiously raided federations such as Beyond Chaos, MWF, PWC, JCW and the LWE for talent
Shinsuke Nakamura vs Pat Patterson
Again Nakamura's behaviour is quite erratic throughout this bout and very hard to predict but the most impressive thing is how he seems to be able to counter almost anything Patterson tries. This not only hugely frustrates Patterson leads to him making an uncharacteristic mistake while trying to do something different to catch Nakamura out. He climbs onto the turnbuckle and looks to adjust himself for a moonsault after taking his opponent down with a big clothesline but Nakamura is up like a shot and catches Patterson with a huge superplex which he immediately follows up with his own El Niño Springboard moonsault off the turnbuckle. He doesent stop there though and instead lifts up his opponent before hitting a GTS on him for the 3 count.
Winner: Nakamura
After the match Nakamura grabs his Hardcore title which until recently he had been should be considered far more prestigious than a normal US hardcore belt because it meant he was the King of Hard Style wrestling. Then while kneeling in ring with it in his hand he starts cracking it against his own skull! He does so several times while the arena is in stunned silence. Luckily for him hardcore titles tend not to be made of the most valuable and strongest of metals and the thing breaks right down the middle after one particularly strong head shot. then as he looks up with blood dripping from his face and says "I have evolved beyond this title, I have a grander purpose now and a bigger target which I too will break" before bursting into laughter.
#JD: Jaysus what the hell was all that business with his Hardcore belt? and wasn't that CM Punks GTS move he did to win the match?
#BH: Yeah I think someone is clearly trying to send a message
#JD: Well lets see if Punk has anything to say about him
#BH: Right because now we are going to take you to highlights from the 1st hour of the ongoing UFC press conference with CM Punk, Dan Severn, Ronda Rousey & Others. Why will we do this live on BWA raw well there is some huge news here for BWA fans!The Highlights from hour 1 included* UFC have signed a cross promotional deal with the BWA starting with BWA Wrestlepalooza V
* They never did this with WWE or any other promotion for fears of the feds legitimacy.
* This deal does not currently include any involvement from CM Punk although fighting the BWA world champion would intrigue him
* He says that Nakamura is beneath him and that his stunt last week was laughable
* Ronda Rousey spoke about how she is a big wrestling fan but left the press conference early
#JD: Now that is huge news
#BH: It sure is and we will hear more about that with hour 2 of that press conference a little bit later tonightJesse Ventura in ring promoVentura: I hold before me a copy of the local daily news paper and a copy of the British Daily Mail for today. they both run a story about me your future president and the sexiest man in the BWA, Jesse "The Body" Ventura, I'm international news baby! They both say I won't be watching that piece of propaganda crap American Sniper - check - They both say that Chris Kyle can't be considered a hero if he is a lying sack of Sh!t - check - and they both say that his widow owes me 1.8million dollars - now thats a big cheque haha
Unfortunately I won't be letting her settle things outside of court and like most women who want something from The Body behind closed doors (he winks to the crowd) as... I have standards! and afterall I would describe her as... middle America (getting some serious heat from the crowd here) not like you surgically enhanced beauties here in California but i'll come to you a little bit later ladies, I gotta beat some fool first (throws the papers out of the ring)
#BH: I don't care if he won his case or not, that is one disgusting human being
#JD: I just hope his opponent is able to shut his mouth for us... oh no
#BH: Surely after the beating he took last week he shouldn't have been medically cleared to compete
Jesse Ventura vs Seiji Sakaguchi
Sakaguchi impresses to begin with thanks to his technical approach but after a few clubbing blows from Ventura it is clear that Sakaguchi is still feeling the effects from last week when Nakamura attacked him after their match. As a result it isn't long before what is essentially a clothesline from hell such is the ferocity he delivers it with that Ventura keeps him down for the 3 count
Winner: Jesse Ventura
Ventura celebrates flexing his muscles infront of a group of women in the front row as the crowd begin to boo. He gets turned down by a few of them then after one flips him off he grabs the mic and says "I wasn't talking to you lady, i'd rather take a ride on the titanic than get with you afterall that thing only went down on 1500 people"
Then after being heard to exclaim ill take this one he tries to lift a girl over the railing only for a scuffle to break out as she also turns him down but he doesent take it well and tries to force her to come with him. This all stops though as The California crowd erupt as “Bad Reputation” by Joan Jett & The Blackhearts blasts out and Ronda Rousey! appears on the ramp way.
She orders him to release the girl emphasizing that she said no. Ventura obliges but mostly cos his attention is now drawn to the 27 years old California native he walks around to face her at the other end of the ramp and says "it's okay baby you can have "The Body" all to yourself tonight". Rousey just shakes her head and charges down the ramp and with what almost looks like a spear takes him down and then immediately starts laying into him with rights and lefts. Ventura was almost in too much shock to even try to stop her and after security pull her off him he just backs away from her and up the ramp to the back. The crowd are loving it though and chant Rouseys name.
#BH: Thats my kind of woman!
#JD: Wow "Rowdy" Ronda Rousey just showed up on BWA Raw
#BH: and you know what, I've a feeling that won't be the last we will see of her
Looking forward to the upcoming PPV the announcers then show a graphic of the now official first match ups made for BWA WrestlePalooza V where The Shiek & Abdullah The Butcher will take on The Brisco brothers for the BWA tag team titles and Antonio Inioki will face Vader. They then announce that the next match will see the BWA debut of The Shiek as he will take on the third member of the Aces of the Universe and the BWA World Heavyweight champion.Todd Pettengill interviews BWA world champion Hiroshi Tanahashi and asks him if he has any comments about what has been happening to his friend Antonio Inoki and the other members of the Aces of The Universe
Tanahashi: "A coward is someone who attacks under a cover of darkness. Someone who will not go face to face with their adversary. I believe Jerry Lawler is a coward. He fears Antonio Inoki and he fears anyone associated with him. He thinks they will take his job away from him and send him to the BWA retirement home known as the WECWF. Perhaps I shouldn't speak up as so far Lawler has not targeted me and my world title but you disrespect one Ace of the Universe you disrespect us all so Lawler you better be very careful" Pettengill tries to push him on what he means by that but Tanahashi says he has a match to prepare for and that the time for talk has passed.
The Sheik vs Hiroshi Tanahashi
Unfortunately for the fans in attendance this one dos not get a chance to develop into a proper match as 5mins in Abdullah The Butcher who is in The Sheiks corner takes his fork out once more and stabs it into the foot of Tanahashi in the ring. The match is immediately thrown out as a result.
Winner via DQ Tanahashi
Misawa & Kobashi immediately come running down the aisle and all four men brawl for a few minutes until eventually the Japanese superstars allow the dasterdly duo to get away so they can go check on Tanahashi who is in ring recieving medical attention.
#BH: I knew those 2 couldn't be trusted
#JD: Jesus yeah who carries a fork around with them... well except me so I can always enjoy my 7/11 super salad on the go
#BH: cmon dude nobody is interested in your sponsors, I just hope the champ is ok, you never know what you could catch from something Abdullah stashes in his shorts
#JD: well I bet they are interested in the goings on 1km down the road from us today where the UFCs press conference is almost finished
#BH: good point lets get the latest news from thereBack to the just finishing UFC press conference for a recap of the 2nd hours newsthe highlights included that:
* As part of the UFC BWA cross promotion a number of UFC competitors will fight at Wrestlepalooza V
* The Venue for Wrestlepalooza V is announced as The Tokyo Dome, apparently (they didn't know Lawler had already announced it earlier on Raw) the UFC head honcho had tried for Vegas
* UFC legend Dan "The Beast Severn" is announced as one of these competitors
* The First officially signed cross promotional bout is announced as Ronda Rousey vs Jesse Ventura!
We then go live to the press conference which has almost finished. They are just about done answering questions about the controversial issue of Rousey fighting a man when out of nowhere Shinsuke Nakamura jumps up onto the table they are all sat behind runs along it and connects with a Boma Ye Knee strike to Punks skull! The international media go crazy and there are constant camera flashes as chaos ensues with a mass of humanity converging keeping Nakamura from further attacking Punk. In fact the cameraman covering the event for the BWA is knocked over and the feed is cut so we return to the rather shocked looking team of announcers.
#BH: Holy Sh!t what is going on
#JD: I really can't believe it! What was he even doing there
#BH: you know Nakamura, he always has to insert himself into the headlines, and that really is big news
#JD: very rue but im afraid we will have to leave that discussion for the post show as now it's main event time!Tonight's main event
Samoa Joe vs Mil Mascaras
The announcers cannot stop talking about how Joe is undefeated for the past 18 months straight while he was in TNA and RCW but now the hottest free agent in all of Pro Wrestling has signed for the BWA ahead of all the other suitors. He is in there against a bonafide legend though and things don't go all his way in one hell of a hard hitting contest. For such a big man Joe goes at one hell of a pace and it is when he performs a Suicide dive transitioned into a elbow smash to the outside on his opponent that everyone sits up and takes notice.
It's also at this point that Kenta Kobashi comes out to the rampway to watch this bout. Still on the outside Joe 100% takes the initiative in the match by delivering a sick release German suplex that send Mascaras head first into the ring apron. Mil looks out of it as Joe rolls him into the ring but the assault continues with multiple suplexes including Dragon and Belly to Belly suplexes. Eventually a muscle Buster results in a very decisive victory.
Winner: Samoa Joe
As we go off air we see Joe and Kobashi stare down each other while Joe smiles a sinister smile and makes a belt gesture around his waist
JD: Whats Joe doing Kobashi no longer has a belt
BH: maybe thats the point he is making or maybe he is here for Kobashi's stablemate Hiroshi Tanahashi's World Heavyweight title!
JD: gawd damn I can't wait till next week to find this and a whole lot more out

PCW IS BACK!!!!!
Fireworks are going of crowds cheering in Croke Park as our General manager Cman is standing in the middle of the ring, with a big smile on his face and mic in his hand.
“Welcome to the third year of pcw over the last 2 years we have had 2 great PPVs in our first year this company struggled and overcame great difficulty at Wrestletastic, and the big brawl last year crowned our rise into the big leagues. “
“And to celebrate our third year we will have our reigning tag team champions D’Lo Brown and The Goodfather defend their titles tonight.”
The crowd are cheering the whole way through.
“ Now that bit of business has been taken care of. I have another announcement.
This year I have done something that I haven’t done before and that’s have a PCW champion before we have started so please let me announce The Undertaker is our newly crowned PCW Champion.”
The Crowd go wild
Paul Bearer walks down with a smile on his face the Audience are apprehensive as he walks down he enters the ring.
“Please Please Before you look for my head I am here on behalf of my beloved Undertaker (pauses as the crowd start to warm to him) as you all know The Undertaker has been out of action for a while because of one certain individual who we won’t name here.”
A chorus of boos ring around mixed with Lesnar sucks!!
“So if you the good people of Dublin let me and all you at home let me I will take this great honour to the Under taker”
The Crowd start chanting Undertaker
As a gong goes off and lights out and commercial.
Pt 2
Bo Dallas is in the ring
“Well wasn’t that a spirited opening. I B…. looks at the crowd with a grin. I think that was a completely pathetic way to begin a show”
and the crowd turn
“I stand here and I see a group of people who are disillusioned with their own lives you cheer a man who can not even face you to receive something he hasn’t earned his errand boy shows up claims his title.
On that the lights go out the crowd cheer but flames erupt out of the ring posts. Bo Dallas freaks out and doesn’t know where to turn as Kane strides toward the ring.
Com 1: well pissing of Undertaker is one thing but Kane as well that’s just stupid.
Com 2 the Boy was just speaking the truth.
Kane steps over the ropes grabs the mic in one hand and Bo Dallas’s throat in the other
“ring the Bell so I can beat this disrespectful punk right here right now.
The crowd go mad for Kanes attitude
Com 2 well this is ridiculous ambushing a young upstart like this
Com 1 hes come out here and looked for a match like a decent man
The bell goes bo dallas kicks out of the choke slam and escapes pout the ring. Kane chases him around but who jumps over the Barrier but Rhyno
Com 1 oh my god whats he doing here?
Rhyno lets Bo Dallas run by him and gores an unsuspecting Kane into the steel steps he has just rounded. The ref signals for the bell.
Com 2 good man Rhyno, doing what he can to help that poor boy
Com 1 POOR BOY!!
Rhyno rolls Kane into the ring as Bo Dalls slides in grabs the mic and Pins him
“Oh ref why can’t you let these things happen. I’ll count it myself
1….. 2…… 3…… now people of Dublin I want you to know one thing Rhyno is a….. well….. hes a BOOOO Leiver…… “
He walks up the ramp and turns to the crowd
“ You will all BO lieve in me you will all see the truth soon.”
We go to an add break as Kane starts to stir.
Com 1 what on earth is that boy on about.
PT 3
We return from the add break with the Boogey man stalking through the corridors of Croker.
Com 1 of course I forgot that creature was with the company.
Com 2 you don’t know what he’s here for.
Cman is in his Office With D’LO
“ Look I have no problem with defending my title tonight but somethings not right in here Good is acting strange ”
Cman
“I know I’ve noticed it to look go out there tonight and give them a show ok”
D’lo
“that’s not a problem”
X pac comes down the ramp for a bout against a local lad
Com 1 well its good to see such a high caliber athlete here in Dublin
Com 2 yeah High caliber!
This is a quick squash but Xpac acknowledges his advisory for the crowd pop.
Com 2 cheap this man shouldn’t be allowed near a ring.
AD Break
Pt 4
We’re back with Brad Maddox walking down the ramp
He is followed down by Hornswaggle
In the ring he picks up the mic
“People People, I know some my wrestling may have left a lot to be desired but I believe I have trained Hornswaggle to be one of if not the finest athlete in this excuse of a federation. I will make him king amongst men.”
Cue Viscera to walk down the ramp.
Hornswoggle looks terrified in the ring but Brad is standing there laughing.
“have I insulted a king??”
Com 2 this is ridiculous what right does this “man” have to threaten these two like this
Viscera enters the ring, Brad looks like he is giving words of advise to hornswaggle. The bell goes as Brad Maddox leaves the ring, hornswoggle keeps his distance sneaks between his legs once. As Viscera charges across the ring hornswoggle drops out beneath the rope. Viscera follows him out. Hornsoggle retreats up the ramp as Brad Maddox chases him screaming advise. The ref gets to a 6 count as Brad screams Now! At hornswoggle he side steps viscera and runs to the ring and as the ref counts 10 hes only on the steps.
Brad Maddox with a smile on his face raises a rearful hornswoggles arm and they escape around a fuming Viscera.
Pt 5
Matt Hardy is stumbling around the back and storms into the Cmans office.
I saw how you treated my brother last year letting him get beat up by those idiots of Bubbas and now you give his title to the Undertaker you’re despicable.
Cman” what is wrong with you.!! Get out of here while you can still stand.”
“I want your intercontinental title!”
“I’ll give you a shot if you can beat who is waiting in the ring”
In the ring is Ricardo
Matt Hardy stumbles down to the ring
This is an odd match Ricardo doesn’t know what to do with Matt, theres a lot of rest holds to begin with and Ricardo looks to be in control
Com 2 “ this is a disgrace forcing an athlete as capable as Matt hardy out against this mess Ricardo.
Com 1 how can you stand up for him he’s in no condition to be in the building.
With Hardy down on one knee the ref turns to ring the bell and just as he starts to signal a no contest hardy snaps into life but a low blow on Ricardo behind the refs back and with him down hits the twist of fate for the three count.
He stumbles back up the ramp he steals a drink from a member of the audience.
Com 1 disgraceful behavior from Hardy there.
Ad break
Pt 6
Dlo and Good Father are waiting in the ring there opponents haven’t been announced yet
Com 1 well this is some match to finis the evening.
Com 2 yeah I agree the Wyatts are a fierce team and will rip those title s away from D’lo and godfather
This is a solid match D’lo in ring for the majority and getting worked on by Harper and Rowan.
As the match progresses the boogieman makes his way through the crowd distracting the godfather
Com 1 “what on earth is he doing here “
The god father starts holding his head as if someone is talking to him
D’Lo is in desperate need of a tag but none is coming.
The lights go out and lantern appears at the bottom of the ramp as the lights come back on the boogieman and the god father who hadn’t taken part are gone.
Com 1 GOOD GOD what’s going on here.
D’lo sees hes on his own and takes it to the wyatts but is eventually overwhelmed.
Rowan gets up onto the turnbuckle for a diving splash and the three count.
Com 1 I cant believe it we have new tag champions
Com 2 oh believe it these boys are the real deal.

Preview show here.
Week 1 show here.
Week 2 show here.
Previously on Monday Night Grappling:- Dynamite Kid was revealed as the masked attacker who assaulted Stone Cold at the Preview Show. It emerged he and Bischoff had conspired to take out Austin, and (with help from Rikishi) ensure Dynamite Kid won the King of the Ring tournament.
- Davey Boy Smith, Nick Bockwinkel and Stone Cold were all attacked as Dynamite's plan succeeded; on winning, Dynamite christened himself Dynamite King.
- Elsewhere, Kevin and David Von Erichs attacked Tyler Breeze in revenge for Breeze having Kerry taken out by the Brainbusters; tensions between Rey and Sin Cara continued and Rey found Sin Cara's discarded mask backstage; and relations between Paige and mother Saraya seemed strained as Saraya struck Paige's friend Bayley before storming stormed off...
Fireworks and pyro go off from tonight's live show in Dallas, Tx.
Bischoff opened the show and he was surrounded by about a dozen security guards who circled the ring.Eric Bischoff: Last week was a historic moment. A moment up there with Stone Cold’s 3:16 promo in 1996; the dawning of a new era – the era of Dynamite King. I mean come on, did you really think I would put up with a rebellious rattlesnake on my show? When Dynamite came to me with a plan to take out Austin it was too good to refuse! And don'tcha just love it when a plan comes together?
The fans boo as Bischoff grins.
Bischoff: I was sincere when I said I wanted Monday Night Grappling to be a success; that’s why I decided to get behind Dynamite. Bret Hart should have been the biggest thing in wrestling when he came to WCW and I accept blame for that not happening. I now want to make amends - through Dynamite King. He will be the biggest star in the business once he defeats Stone Cold at Grapplemania. Speaking of which...
Bischoff smiles and holds up an envelope. He takes out a slip of paper.
Bischoff: This document is a note from the company's chief medical officer: it says on the back of further injuries sustained by Stone Cold last week, Austin has been deemed medically unfit to be here tonight since it could jeopardise Grapplemania’s main event. So he’s officially off the show.
The fans boo and chant for 'Austin'
Bischoff: Don't worry though, folks. Tonight will still be a star-studded line-up. Your beloved Von Erichs (the fans cheer) will be in action against the Brainbusters and Tyler Breeze (the fans boo these men). Also, Paige and Bayley will have a rematch from last week. There's just one more thing to address...
The camera pans down to an unhappy-looking J.R.
Bischoff: J.R., did you know that the Dynamite King wanted you fired when he heard the things you said on commentary last week? I stepped in personally to save your job. Do you know why? Because I want you to have a front row seat as you witness the beginning of the end of your precious... 'Stone Cold! Stone Cold! Stone Cold!' and his illustrious career.
I want you around so I can humiliate you just like Vince McMahon used to do, but much, much worse. You are my new pet, J.R. And every good pet must be able to please his masters.
Tonight we will officially crown our Dynamite King in what shall be a very lavish ceremony. J.R. you will be in charge of ensuring everything is in place for tonight. Don't worry you don't have to rap, or bring any of your awful barbecue sauce. The materials have already been ordered. You just have to ensure everything is set up correctly.If you fail in this, you will have an angry Dynamite to deal with.
Bischoff orders J.R. backstage to get on with it as the fans boo. Suddenly there is a commotion in the crowd...
Davey Boy Smith comes through the fans and walks down the steps as the fans cheer. He is hurting and holding his neck; he has a mic with him.Commentator # 1: It’s Davey Boy – the man assaulted last week and thus eliminated from the King of the Ring tournament courtesy of Dynamite, Rikishi and Bischoff!
Davey Boy says he never got a fair chance in the King of the Ring tournament. He accused Dynamite of being afraid to face him fair and square and said he had always had a chip on his shoulder; he said this had been the source of the disharmony between them for years behind the scenes.You shut your bloody mouth, Davey Boy!
The crowd boo as Dynamite emerges from the curtain and storms down the aisle, joining Eric in the ring. Bischoff tries to calm him down and is heard advising him to go backstage and wait for the ceremony but Dynamite brushes him off.
Dynamite King: I’ll handle this, Eric. This toerag wants to disrupt my big day, does he? Some things never change. You’ve always tried to hog the spotlight, Davey Boy. You were the one that trademarked 'The British Bulldog' before me, or even Vince McMahon. Despite the fact I was the original British Bulldog, you wouldn't let me use my own name! And there was the time you dropped me on my back, badly injuring me and starting a whole host of problems for me. I've always wondered was that an accident.
Did you really fink I'd forget all that, Davey Boy? You were never in my league ya selfish bastid. I was always the better man.
Davey Boy: The world can easily see which one of us is bitter, but let's see which one of us is better. If you fink you are, prove it. I dare you to face me right 'ere, right now in Dallas, and put your title shot against Austin on the line!
The fans cheer the cheap pop and the prospect of a match.
Davey Boy: Put your title shot on the line against me and make it no interference. We wouldn’t want fat hired goons sticking their noses in, would we?
The fans cheer as Bischoff laughs and shakes his head, thinking this absurd.
Davey Boy: I don’t think you’ve got the balls though, cousin. Dynamite King? More like Dynamite Queen.
Dynamite King: (stares at Davey Boy for a long time): You’re on.
Bischoff (his jaw agape): Wait, what? Are you nuts? This wasn’t in the plan!
Dynamite King: Don’t you believe in me, Eric? I thought you weren’t one of the doubters? Make the fookin’ match I said. I will beat this twat just like I will beat Austin at Grapplemania.
Bischoff (beads of sweat rolling down his forehead): Course I believe in you. You’re my King. Get me a ref down here!Commentator #1: Listen to these fans going crazy! The security guys are leaving and it looks like we’ve got a match here with the Grapplemania title shot on the line!
Commentator #2: Bischoff doesn’t look happy about this. Everything they’ve worked for is on the line here! What a match this is gonna be!Match for the number one contender spot at Grapplemania - Dynamite King vs Davey Boy Smith
The match went over thirty-five minutes and was a PPV-calibre contest. Bischoff watched it all from ringside, chewing his nails.
The match was a brawl in the early going with both men hitting stiff shots and bloodying up the other's mouths. After about fifteen minutes of this, it settled into each man trying to out-wrestle the other with neither getting the advantage, as they knew each other so well.
Highlights for Davey Boy included hitting a running powerbomb leading to a near-fall, and Davey Boy hitting a powerslam for the second rope but being too tired to cover quickly and thus allowing Dynamite to kick out.
Highlights for Dynamite included a belly-to-belly from the top rope for a long two count; and a german suplex over the ropes, sending Davey Boy to the floor.Commentator #1: These men know the importance of this match, leaving it all on the line.
Commentator #2: It's tough to see either man lose this one.
The finish of the match saw Davey Boy take charge and go for his running powerslam finisher but Dynamite slipped out from behind and drove Davey Boy’s head down into the turnbuckle. Dynamite then took the dazed Davey Boy and hit a piledriver. He followed by going up top for the diving headbutt and he connected for the 1…2…3 pin.
Winner and still number one contender: Dynamite King
The Dallas fans stand and applaud at the end and Bischoff comes in the ring and hugs Dynamite; he is noticeably relieved. The announcers note Dynamite didn’t look happy that Bischoff appeared to doubt the outcome. Dynamite got a mic.Dynamite King: Now that I have proven myself to be the superior Bulldog, Davey Boy do the right thing and get down on your knees, kiss my hand, and swear eternal loyalty to your King. Do that, and you can stand at my right hand as the leader of my Kingsguard.
The fans boo as Dynamite passes the mic to Davey Boy’s lips. Bischoff looks on smiling.
Davey Boy: Kiss your hand? Why don’t you kiss my arse instead, you sick bastid.
The fans cheer as Dynamite shakes his head.
Dynamite: In that case I think maybe it’s time Rikishi gave you another beating.
Dynamite goes to call out his henchman when ‘God Saves The King’ suddenly blares over the arena. Dynamite and Davey Boy are shocked as British wrestling legend Marty Jones appears and enters the ring.
The announcers note Jones helped train Dynamite in shoot wrestling, and was a huge influence on Davey Boy and British wrestling in general.Marty Jones: Come on, now. Come on, stop it. I’ve known you two since you were just kids. I’ve been a mentor to you, Dynamite. And Davey Boy, I’ve looked after you too in the past, son.
This hurts me seeing you at each other’s throats. I was always so proud to see you two go on to become British wrestling legends. And you just produced one hell of a match right now as I'm sure these fans will agree.
The fans cheer and many stand and clap once more.
Marty Jones: You see? You lads took British wrestling to new heights and you both got credit that I was never able to get. Has that made me bitter? No. Because I know you two always respected me, isn’t that right?
They both nod.
Marty Jones: All of this can go away – with an apology. Just a sorry for the nastiness that has gone on the past few weeks and this can all go away. You’re both cousins after all; both blood. All of this can go away by just acknowledging that you’ve done wrong…so be the bigger man and just apologise, Davey Boy.
A look of shock falls over Davey Boy’s face as Dynamite nods.Commentator #1: Wait, he wants Davey Boy to say sorry?Marty (looking at Davey Boy): Everything the King says and has done has been correct. You have been very selfish, son. Put all that behind you and get behind the best fookin’ wrestla that Britain ever produced – the Dynamite King. GOD SAVE THE KING! GOD SAVE THE KING! GOD SAVE THE KING!
He tries to get the fans to chant but they all boo. Marty then grabs Davey Boy and gets him down to his knees but Davey Boy struggles out of it and knocks Marty down.
Dynamite then kicks Davey Boy downstairs with a low blow and he and Marty Jones begin assaulting Davey Boy. Dynamite then hands the mic to Bischoff and whispers something in his ear.
Eric Bischoff: Davey Boy, per the orders of my King, it is my duty to inform you that you are found guilty of high treason and are hereby royally…FIRED!
The fans boo and as we go to commercial we see Dynamite, Marty and Bischoff standing tall over the hurt – and now fired – Davey Boy.***commercial break***
***backstage*** G.M. Eric Bischoff's office
Bischoff is there with J.R. and he asks J.R. did he see what happened to Davey Boy? J.R. says nothing and looks disgusted. Bischoff laughs and says this is what happens when you are guilty of treason.
Bischoff says tonight will be a glorious night for the King. He calls him the true King of the Draft unlike that Burger King impostor who was here last year, and has wound up on MNG’s B show: the BWA.
He says Dynamite is taking a bath and resting before the big ceremony and he reminds J.R. the ceremonial materials will be arriving soon and J.R. better do a good job arranging everything. J.R. nods and says he conducted an interview with Stone Cold a few days ago and asks will it be on the show tonight? Bischoff says sure, why not? If it will keep his pet happy.
***Elsewhere*** A Sin Cara video package plays
It features footage of Sin Cara, but it is distorted to show his mask as the colour black instead of blue. It finishes with the line, 'Out of the darkness shall come the light.' And it gives the date of next week's show.
When it finishes we see Rey Mysterio standing by watching it on a monitor. An interviewer asks him for his thoughts and Rey says he is confused right now but he hopes to get answers from his friend next week. He walks off.
***Elsewhere*** Davey Boy is getting helped out of the arena by medics.
Bayley arrives and hugs Davey Boy and says she's sorry. Davey Boy tries to smile.
Rikishi then arrives on the scene and apologises. He didn't think anyone would get fired, he says. He admits he's a mercenary, but says he has good reasons. His brother was in need of medical help and-
Davey Boy cuts him off and says 'save it'. He says if he'd the strength he'd tear Rikishi apart right now. Kim Kardashian then shows up and pats Rikishi on the back. She says she overheard Rikishi's comments and if it's money he wants, she can help him. She asks him to be her bodyguard as she needs security after Austin attacked her. Rikishi nods as Davey Boy laughs and calls him a sell-out. Kardashian then mocks Davey Boy and says at least Rikishi will have a paycheck next month.
Bayley asks Kim what is wrong with her kicking a man when he's down and says she should be ashamed of herself. She leaves helping Davey Boy away as Kim grinds her teeth and asks, 'what did that bitch just say to me?'
Jim Ross interview with Austin at the Broken Skull ranch, from a few days agoThe interview takes place in the living room of Stone Cold’s house. The blinds are down and the room is without much light as Austin sits there, almost in darkness; it’s clear he is marked badly from the chair shots of last week. He holds a beer in one hand and his title in the other and he stares right through J.R.
Jim Ross: Steve, I want to thank you for giving me this interview. I know you’re madder than a wet hornet right now and I can see looking in your eyes, if looks could kill, you’d be on death row. I know the doctors have forbidden you from getting anywhere near Dallas in your condition, and there are rumours you’ve refused to allow a full assessment of your neck ‘cos it’s in such bad shape-
Stone Cold (looking agitated): Jesus Christ Jim, are you gonna sit there and flap your gums all day or are you gonna get to the damn question?
Jim Ross: Excuse me. Yes, I am. My question, Steve, is…how is your neck, really?
Stone Cold pauses for a while and then lets out a rueful laugh.
Stone Cold: Hell, Jim. You want to know how my neck is? Since I was dropped on my neck by…by him, I haven’t been able to get any shut eye; I can’t lean over without pain shooting down my damn back; I’m getting a tingling sensation in my hands constantly. When I lie down for even a short while I struggle to get back up. How’s my neck? My neck is shot, Jim. My neck ain’t worth a damn. But as bad as my neck is…as painful as this body of mine is…that ain’t nothing compared to what I’m gonna do to that son of a bitch at Grapplemania.
Stone Cold begins stroking his goatee and his hands begin to noticeably shake.
Jim Ross: I notice you haven’t mentioned his name yet, Steve…
Stone Cold: Well hell, he’s got a new name now doesn’t he? The sumbitch thinks he’s a king.
Stone Cold swigs back his beer and begins rubbing the back of his head.
Jim Ross: That’s correct. Steve, I need to hear your thoughts on…on Dynamite King. Before that, I want to play a recording of a podcast you and Bret Hart did on Dynamite some years back and particularly 6:35 in…
Jim Ross: Steve you were very complimentary there of Dynamite. It comes across like you had huge respect and admiration for him. You said and I quote, ’That guy really paved a way for a lot of guys to follow and was, stylistically, just a trend-setter from an innovation standpoint.’
My question now Steve is…what are your thoughts on him now?
Stone Cold (takes a swig of beer and breathes heavily) : How do I feel about him? Ha. How do I feel about him…well I’ll say this, Jim: everything I said in that video is true; I respect the hell out of what that…that man has done in the ring. My greatest matches were against Bret Hart and more than once I got my ass handed to me by the Hitman…and Bret told me he thinks that guy is the greatest ever worker in our business.
As a performer…I respect the hell out of him. But as a human being? As a human being, I think he’s a piece of sh*t. A sorry, sadistic, no-good, sick son of a bitch. That’s what I think, Jim. He thinks he’s taking this title from me at Grapplemania. But I’m gonna end him, Jim. This is the end of him. This is the end.
Austin begins nodding and has a far-away look in his eyes.
Jim Ross: You’re obviously emotional, Steve, and I get that. I do. But I don’t want you to say something you’re gonna regret here-
Stone Cold: I mean what I say, Jim. I’m gonna put an end to him. There are three names on my list; three cans of whoop ass that need to be opened up. One for that fat mercenary, piece of trash Rikishi; a man who had me target an innocent man in Nick Bockwinkel to throw me off the scent of Dynamite (and I want to take this time to say I regret that happened, and that’s the closest thing to an apology you’re gonna get from me); after Rikishi next up is gonna be that slimy little bastard Eric Bischoff who enabled all this to happen. The last one on my list…is him. And he ain’t gonna handle what I throw at him. No, sir.
Jim Ross: Final question, Steve – you’re clearly not at 100 per cent. And you’re facing a man universally acknowledged as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time. How can you beat this man in your present condition?
Stone Cold: You know what I’ve done in this business better than anyone, Jim. The accolades, the Wrestlemania main events…
And as far as the Draft goes, hell son, this Draft has been running for 8 years and Stone Cold has never been beaten in the main event in any of those years. That’s a fact. But with all that being said, I know, Jim, I KNOW in my heart, that this is the toughest challenge that Stone Cold Steve Austin has ever had to face. My damn career may be on the line, as well as the title. But when it’s all said and done…when Grapplemania comes to pass…I will make it 9 years without being beaten; I will finish that sorry sumbitch off for good; and I will remain the MNG World Heavyweight Champion. And that is the bottom line.
J.R. reaches over and shakes the hand of Stone Cold. ‘Good luck, buddy’ he says as we go to commercial.
***commercial break***
***backstage*** Paige's dressing roomPaige is getting ready for her match when her mother Saraya enters. Paige looks to bring up what happened last week (Saraya hitting Paige’s friend Bayley and then storming away) but Saraya cuts her off.
Saraya: Sweetheart, I'm to blame. I've been wrong and I'm at fault. I see that now. See, sometimes I just want you to win so badly that I lose sight of everything else. (She begins to tear up) I've always wanted what's best for you, baby. For me to behave that way last week...
She starts sobbing and Paige gives her a hug and gets emotional too. She tells Saraya to come out with her, but Saraya said it wouldn’t be right after last week. Instead she will take a seat at ringside and watch ‘her pride and joy’. She reaches behind and takes out some flowers; she asks Paige to give them to Bayley for what happened.
Paige agrees and turns to leave and then notes she almost forgot her Women’s Title. Saraya picks it up and stares at the belt for a moment. Then she smiles and hands it to her daughter as the segment ends.
***Elsewhere***
J.R. enters Bischoff's office and tells the G.M. that he is sure everything for tonight's King of the Ring ceremony has arrived and is in place for later.
Bischoff says 'good boy' and pats J.R. on his hat. He calls him a good pet and tells him to go back to his announce desk. Before J.R. goes he asks him to reveal the results of BWA's latest show while on air. J.R. says he doesn't think that's wise. Bischoff says okay, then at least say 'Orton vs Rhodes: that'll put a lot of bums in seats!' J.R. shakes his head. 'But Eric, it will put a lot of bums in seats.' Bischoff says 'Huh, guess you're right. You're a clever pet! Wish I'd had you during the Monday Night Wars!' He pulls on J.R.'s cheeks like one would a baby and J.R. leaves muttering that he's an idiot.
Match – Paige vs Bayley (non-title)
The announcers note that a win for Bayley may put her in the title picture for Grapplemania.
Saraya was seated at ringside as she promised. Before the bell rang Paige gave Bayley the flowers Saraya had bought for her as an apology for last week. Bayley gave Saraya a suspicious look at ringside but accepted the flowers and nodded to Saraya. Then the match got under way.
The match was even better than last week with plenty of highlights including Paige hitting a crossbody to Bayley on the outside from the top turnbuckle. Also Bayley connecting with a big superplex on Paige that got a long two count.
The finish saw Bayley hit her finisher the Belly-to-Bayley but she couldn’t make the pin quick enough as her leg gave out on her. When she eventually covered her, Paige kicked out just before three. Bayley then went to hit the move again, but Paige this time blocked the suplex with her leg, hitting the Paige Turner out of nowhere and getting the 1…2…3 pin.
Winner: PaigeFrom ringside Saraya can be seen clapping and waving. Bayley's knee was hurting her and so the ref went to check on her outside the ring. Paige went to check on her too, but her mother instead called her over. Saraya then gave Paige a big hug.
Paige then goes to turn back towards her prone friend Bayley when Saraya calls out: ‘One last thing, honey’. As Paige turns around, Saraya smashes Paige in the face with a forearm knocking her daughter to the ground.Jim Ross: Wait a minute! What the hell was that? Saraya just struck Paige! That’s your own daughter for goodness sakes!Paige clutches her mouth and is stunned. The fans chant ‘Holy sh*t’ as Saraya climbs over the barricade and stands over her daughter. She can be heard screaming ‘You’re weak! You don’t have what it takes!’ She then walks over to the announcer’s corner to get a mic. A fan shouts out that she sucks; she replies calling him a wanker.
Saraya then grabs Paige by the hair and drags her daughter into the ring. The ref treating Bayley tries to intervene but Saraya tells him to treat that muppet (meaning Bayley) and to stay out of family matters. The fans chant ‘Paige, Paige’ as Paige tries to gather her senses. She is on the canvas clutching her face.
Saraya: Hear that, sweetheart? They’re chanting your name. Bet that feels nice, eh? You’ve been hearing that since the first day you arrived in this country. Meanwhile I, having busted my arse for over twenty years in this business, get no respect from these people. The only thing I’m known for is being ‘Paige’s mother’. I know my skin’s not quite as soft anymore and unlike you I don’t have a pert set of knockers or a small arse, but you people have no idea what I’m capable of.
Paige reaches out an arm and grabs hold of her mother’s waist, trying to raise herself up; Saraya shoves her back down.
Saraya: Look at you. Look how weak you are. You’re a disgrace, child. When I think how much I sacrificed to get you here. How I put my own dreams on the backburner to make sure yours came true. ‘Be a good mum’ I told myself. ‘This is what good mums do. She’ll thank you for it one day.’ But you never gave me the thanks I deserved; the respect. Never! You’re just a selfish bitch.
The fans are standing in stunned silence as Paige again tries to drag herself up. She is crying and saying ‘Please, mum.’
Saraya: But you know what? I could forgive that. I can forgive selfishness – if not for the fact it’s made you weak; it’s made you soft. You want to entertain these yank pigs. You want to spend time hugging numpties like Bayley. You want to make people happy. That’s not how I raised you. That’s not the Britani Knight I remember. Britani Knight was strong; but Paige…is weak.
Paige staggers to her feet and looks in her mother’s eyes now. ‘Please Mum, I love you’ she can be heard saying.
Saraya: I don’t want your love. That’s what I want (she points at the title on the canvas). I want your title. I want it and I want it at Grapplemania because with that belt around my waist I will finally come out of your shadow once and for all, and let the world know at long last who the true champion of this family really is. And thanks to General Manager Bischoff, it's going to happen. That's right, baby. Mr. Bischoff loved the idea of a mother vs daughter match for the title at the PPV.
Paige shakes her head. ‘Mum, please.’
Saraya: Stop it. You disgust me. I gave, and I gave, and I gave to you, Paige. But now? Now, mummy’s gonna TAKE.
And with that Saraya again clubs her daughter to the ground with a forearm smash and begins stomping her repeatedly as the fans look on stunned. Paige is writhing in pain and crying; she doesn’t seem to want to fight back. The ref runs in and tries to stop it but Saraya low blows him and knocks him down with the microphone.
Saraya lifts up the Women’s Title as the fans boo. ‘Mummy’s gonna take’ she mouths again, and then she tosses the title at her daughter before exiting the ring to loud jeers as Paige lies there distraught.Jim Ross: This is heinous! This is disgusting! Her own flesh and blood – being treated like that. What the hell is wrong with this woman, this Jezebel? Bah Gawd this ain’t right!
Commentator #1: I’ve never seen anything like it.
Commentator #2: Saraya said Paige doesn’t have what it takes and she may be right. I didn’t see Paige fighting back and she’ll have to if she wants to keep her title at Grapplemania.

***Paige interview***
An interviewer asks Paige for her reaction to what just happened and her mother challenging her at Grapplemania. Paige, though, is too emotional to give a coherent interview. 'How could she do that?' she sobs. 'That's my mum. How can she want to face her own...her own...' The interviewer cuts the interview short as Paige is too upset to continue.
***Bayley segment***
As we come back from commercial we see Bayley being helped up by the ref. She is holding her knee and the fans cheer her as she gets to her feet; they begin chanting her name.
Rikishi’s bad man theme hits and out comes Rikishi accompanied by Kim Kardashian. Bayley looks on confused as Kim comes down with a big grin on her face. Fans boo her and give the middle finger which she ignores.
Kardashian: Oh poor Bayley. How did it feel to get your ass kicked, huh? Oh, what? Are you…are you crying Bayley? You are, aren’t you? Oh dear. Maybe instead of Bayley we should call you Baby because that’s the way you act! What a stupid, naïve, immature little bitch you are.
Kim laughs at Bayley as the fans boo. Bayley looks upset.
Kim: Oh look, Rikishi. She seems really sad. Hey Baby, would a hug cheer you up?
Bayley shakes her head and goes to exit the ring but Kim grabs her by the hair and slams her down on her sore neck. The ref tries to intervene but Kim tells Rikishi to deal with him and he punches the ref to the ground.Commentator #1: Rikishi just struck an official!
Commentator #2: They can do what they want. They’re on G.M. Bischoff’s payroll.
Jim Ross: Aw, gimme a break. This is pathetic. What kind of workplace is this damn it? This young woman doesn’t deserve this.Kim: Look at you. I knew you weren’t a good girl. You dared to say to me that I should be ashamed of myself and yet you’re the one flat on your back like a whore.Jim Ross: Aw, for goodness sakes. We apologise for that language, ladies and gentlemen. There’s a filthy mouth on this woman, but then again we all knew that.Kim leans over Bayley suggestively.
Kim: Y’know, Eric told me all about his policy of HLA: Hot Lesbian Action. He tells me it’s great for ratings. Perhaps I should bring that back right here, right now huh? Maybe I should sit right on Bayley and show her that there is a bad girl inside her too?Jim Ross: Bah Gawd, that’s deplorable! That woman is a no-good, dirty tramp!
Commentator #2: What?! You can’t say that.Kim: No. No I’m not gonna do that. It would be wrong to put this bootylicious butt in Bayley’s face.
She looks up at Rikishi.
Kim: But your butt on the other hand…
A gasp runs through the crowd as Kim smiles. She points to the corner of the ring and Rikishi does as told, dragging Bayley’s body towards the turnbuckle. Fans scream no as Rikishi hunks up his trunks.Commentator #1: Oh my God.
Jim Ross: No! Not this! No, not this you son of a bitch! She’s a lovely young woman! She doesn’t deserve this. Don’t you do this! DON’T YOU DO IT!Rikishi does his raising the roof signal and prepares to back up on Bayley with a Stinkface when suddenly there is a commotion – someone is running through the crowd.Commentator #1: Wait a minute! It’s Nick Bockwinkel! The man Rikishi falsely accused of taking out Austin!
Jim Ross: Oh yeah! Boy am I glad to see the legendary Nick Bockwinkel!A noticeably hurt Bockwinkel nonetheless hammers Rikishi with rights and lefts and then clotheslines the big man over the ropes as the fans cheer. Kim scarpers from the ring and tends to Rikishi while Bockwinkel helps Bayley back to her feet. He grabs a mic.
Bockwinkel: You want to give Bayley a Stinkface, do you Rikishi? Well that intention, much like Kim’s self-respect and your genitals, has disappeared.
The fans cheer as Kim and Rikishi point and talk trash from outside.
Bockwinkel: Rikishi, you are a repugnant, odious lump of lard and you cost me my dream of becoming the first Grand Slam Champion in MNG history. You accused me of committing a barbarous brutal backstage assault on Stone Cold Steve Austin and you ensured I was beaten to a pulp last week. Well know this, you will get your comeuppance.
As for you Kim, you are one of the most foul-mouthed reprehensible creatures I’ve had the displeasure to gaze upon. As far as calling Bayley a baby is concerned, I think maybe you ought to label that accusation at Rikishi since he’s the one wearing a diaper.
If you two want to terrorise this young lady you're going to have to get through me first.
The fans pop as Kim and Rikishi throw a tantrum outside the ring. Rikishi looks set to get in the ring but Kim holds him back. Meanwhile in the ring Bockwinkel raises Bayley’s hand as her music plays. Bayley gives a hug to Bockwinkel who looks embarrassed at the affection. He hugs her back in awkward fashion.Commentator #1: I’ve never seen this side of Nick Bockwinkel before but I like it.
Commentator #2: Oh, pass the sick bag.
Jim Ross: Oh why don’t you shut up? Bockwinkel did the right thing. Thank God he was here.
***Commercial break***
Backstage we see Bayley thanking Bockwinkel for what he did and asking for his autograph as Nick looks embarrassed again. Then some security guards arrive and say on the orders of Eric Bischoff they have to leave. They can’t be around.
Bockwinkel gets mad and looks like he will fight against the several security guards but Bayley makes him see sense and they turn to leave. From behind the security guards, Kim Kardashian arrives and can be seen laughing.Kim: I just spoke with Eric Bischoff. And he gave me my wish. At the PPV it’s going to be the two of you versus Rikishi…and me!
Jim Ross: What?! She’s gonna wrestle at Grapplemania?
Kim: I’m gonna make you two pay for embarrassing me. I’m sick of being disrespected around here. So guess what Bayley baby? You will get a Stinkface – only this time it will be in front of over 72, 000 people and millions worldwide. See ya then, you f*cking bitches!
Bockwinkel: You really are a vulgar, foul-mouthed wench. Someone should teach you some respect. We accept your challenge.
Bayley nods as the security escort the pair out of the building while Kim looks on and smiles.
***Backstage - Tyler Breeze heading to the ring***
An interviewer approaches and catches Breeze off guard. He angrily puts on the glass mask he's taken to wearing and says the interviewer doesn't deserve to see his gorgeous mug just yet. 'Do you like the reflection of your own ugliness?' he asks the interviewer. The interviewer ignores that and asks him about facing the Von Erichs in front of Dallas next - is he concerned? Breeze chuckles and says he will have the last laugh in Dallas and he guarantees it.
Match - The Von Erichs vs The Brainbusters & Tyler Breeze
The Dallas fans go wild at the sight of all three of their heroes in the ring. Security are struggling to hold back several females who are trying to get close.
The Brainbusters came out next, followed by Tyler – who tells the security guards to keep the women away from him.Commentator #1: Breeze thinks the women are trying to get to him!
Jim Ross: What an idiot!
Kerry was eager to get started and when Breeze got in the ring it looked like the two would face off – but Breeze instead asked for a mic.Breeze: I should have been the one to defeat Dynamite and win the King of the Ring tournament last week. But because of you awful Von Erichs I was denied my rightful opportunity. But all is not lost. I do hold a quarter-final victory over you, Kerry. And as far as I’m concerned that makes me number one contender for your MNG Legends Title. I therefore challenge you to a match at Grapplemania!
The fans boo.
Kerry: This Legends Title over the years has been held by some of the greats of this business. Men like Nick Bockwinkel, Konnan, Magnum T.A. and Vader. You don’t deserve to be mentioned alongside those men you little punk! You don’t deserve a title shot and as far as I’m concerned you’re a legend only in your own mind!
The fans cheer and chant 'you suck' at Breeze.
Breeze (smiling and looking unphased): I thought you might say that, Kerry. A pity. Now I might be forced to divulge a little secret of yours…
Kevin and David have a worried look on their face as Kerry’s face goes pale.
Breeze: You see, I happened to stop by your dressing room earlier, and I happened to leave my selfie stick - coupled with my phone’s camera on record - lying nearby. And I caught something on there that frankly shocked me, Kerry. Something I suspect only your own family knows about…
Kevin and David see Kerry looks distressed and put their arm around him. They tell him some words of comfort as the audience are brought to a hush. Behind Breeze, Arn and Tully seem amused.
Breeze: Do you want me to tell the world your secret, Kerry? Is that what you want?
Kerry: Okay, okay. You win, Breeze. You can have a title shot at Grapplemania. I accept your challenge.
The fans are surprised but Kevin and David nod their heads at Kerry; Breeze starts laughing.
Breeze: Splendid decision, Kerry. You Dallas hicks aren’t as stupid as I thought. But there’s just one more request I have and then I promise I’ll keep quiet…remove yourself from this match-up. From here on this match becomes a 3-on-2 handicap match!
The fans boo but Kevin and David are seen telling Kerry it’s alright as Kerry shakes his head. They instruct Kerry to go sit at ringside and to the amazement of the fans Kerry reluctantly agrees and removes himself from the match, taking up a place at the commentary booth.Jim Ross: What is going on here? Kerry! Here put this headset on. Damn it, explain to me what this is about? What secret are you and your brothers guarding?
Kerry: Please, Jim. Please…just…just don’t go there.
Jim Ross: Well, alright. If that’s how you feel Kerry…
Commentator #2: Whaddya mean ‘alright’? I want to know what the secret is, Ross.
Arn Anderson starts things off and he has a smile on his face as he begins against Kevin, but he’s not smiling for very long as Kevin soon begins to take control. Breeze, however, distracts the ref allowing Blanchard and Anderson to turn the tide and double-team Kevin. David tries to stop it but the ref orders him back to his corner as the fans are irate.
The pattern of the match is the Von Erichs enjoying bursts of success only for the heels to use dirty tactics to wear them down some more.
After twenty odd minutes of absorbing action, David finally gets a hot tag and the roof comes off in Dallas. He begins cleaning house and it seems as if the two Von Erichs are going to pull off the upset. Breeze is thrown to the outside and, annoyed at this, he stomps over to where the ring announcer is and grabs a chair.Jim Ross: Hey wait a minute, Breeze is about to bring a steel chair in the ring.
Kerry: No, I can’t allow this…
Commentator #2: Hey, where are you going?
Kerry gets up and from behind grabs for the chair as the fans cheer while Breeze shouts at him that he’s not in the match. There is a tug-of-war over the chair and Kerry wins it, pulling the chair out of Breeze’s grasp and sending Breeze sprawling to the floor face first. Breeze hits his lip which starts to bleed and he can be heard crying ‘no, not the face’.
In the ring Arn and David are the legal men and as Arn goes for a Spinebuster, David frees himself and locks in the Von Erich Claw as the fans go nuts. He takes Arn to ground with it and with Arn’s shoulder flat the ref counts the pin for the 1…2…3.
Winners: The Von Erichs
The Dallas fans cheer and Kerry comes into the ring and hugs his brothers. Outside, an enraged Breeze has a mic in his hand.Breeze: No! I told you to stay out of the match! I told you!
Fans again chant ‘You Suck’ at Breeze, as well as chanting ‘Kerry! Kerry!' A sly smile creeps over Breeze’s face.
Breeze: I warned you, Kerry. Everyone wanna hear a secret now?
The fans are once more brought to a hush as Kerry is heard pleading with Breeze not to do it. David and Kevin shout at Breeze to keep his mouth shut.
Breeze: Sorry, champ. You brought this on yourself.
Breeze turns to the audience.
Breeze: You all think Kerry is so strong and beautiful, don’t you? You all swoon over someone you think has the body of a Greek God, right?
The women are heard cheering.
Breeze: Unfortunately, Kerry is more like Achilles than a Greek God, isn’t that right Kerry? I captured the shocking footage of it on my phone, and by checking the company’s medical records, courtesy of General Manager Bischoff, I found out the ugly truth.
Kevin and David shake their heads at Breeze while Kerry remains frozen.
Breeze: You see, everyone, Kerry had his right foot amputated after a driving accident, and so embarrassed was he by this that he even took to taking showers with his prostethic on to hide it from his fellow wrestlers!Note – This is in fact true.Breeze begins laughing as Kerry’s head is bowed low; Kevin and David are seen shouting at Breeze ‘why would you say that?’ and ‘what’s wrong with you?’
Breeze: But don’t worry ladies, at Grapplemania I will be your new MNG Legends Champion and the title will be around the waist of the true personification of beauty! Because while you thought Kerry's body was like a marble statue, unfortunately that statue is missing a piece! And if you don’t believe me, hey Kerry, remove your right boot now and prove me wrong!
With that, Breeze begins laughing hysterically as Kerry looks like he’s fighting back tears. The fans begin chanting for Kerry but he slowly leaves the ring and walks up the aisle with his eyes on the floor. There are teenage girls seen crying and calling out to him, but he walks away heartbroken.Jim Ross: This is despicable! So what if he has a disability? These fans still love you, Kerry. Damn that rotten son of a bitch, Breeze! Damn him!
***Commercial break***
***Backstage*** - Kevin and David Von Erich heading out of the arena
An interviewer runs up and asks them if pinning one of the tag champs has now put them in line for a tag title shot? Kevin says the chance to face the Brainbusters for the gold would be a dream, but right now they are concerned about Kerry. The interviewer tells them he just drove off and David says he’s worried, when from behind they are attacked by Arn and Tully with steel chairs.
‘You can dream all you want but you aren’t getting a shot at these titles’ screams Blanchard. ‘Your brother is the least of your concerns’ says Arn as he and Tully begin assaulting the Von Erichs until a bunch of officials break it up.
As they are being ushered away Arn says they will always be a step ahead of the Von Erichs and Blanchard says forget the titles - none of them are good enough to hold their jockstrap.
Main event segment - A King is Crowned
The ceremonial gear was on display and the ring was bedecked in the colours of red and blue and in the ring stood statues of two knights each holding Union Jack flags. In the centre of the ring there was a golden throne with a crown and sceptre resting there. Bischoff was in the ring accompanied by Rikishi and Kim, as well as Marty Jones.Commentator #1: I gotta say you did a great job setting this up, J.R.
Jim Ross: ……
Commentator #2: So would I, if I had an angry Dynamite to worry about.Bischoff congratulated J.R. and said it looked like he hadn't messed up after all. He said the ring was fit for a king and so let's bring him out. He asked the fans to rise and warmly welcome the King of the Ring winner...
Dynamite entered to 'Jerusalem', wearing a long regal robe that was held up behind him by two women dressed in medieval gowns. He shook hands with Rikishi and Kim, hugged Marty, and gave Bischoff an even bigger hug. He took the mic.
Dynamite King: Have I made believers out of you yet? Davey Boy is gone. He’s done. That selfish twat can go look for employment elsewhere and sit at home the night of Grapplemania watching me beat that Texas bastid Stone Cold for the World Title.
The fans boo.
Dynamite: I am your King and soon I will be your Champion. I listened to Austin’s interview earlier and I could hear the fear in his voice; I could see the trembling hands. He’s pissing himself. He’s not a rattlesnake anymore, he’s just rattled. And so he should be. Because while Austin thinks his undefeated streak at Draft events is going to continue, he’s going to be disappointed. I will defeat him at a Draft PPV for the first time and cement my legacy in this business as an all-time great.
Dynamite then picks up the sceptre and sits on the throne as Bischoff takes the crown and places it upon Dynamite’s head as the fans boo.
Bischoff: Ladies and gentlemen…the next MNG World Champion…Dynamite King!
The crowd boo as Dynamite stands and waves to the fans like a royal. He looks over at J.R who is shaking his head and rolling his eyes.
Dynamite: Hey Eric, the cowboy doesn’t look too impressed.
Eric Bischoff: You’re right, my King. My pet is misbehaving. Did you hear him in the interview earlier? Wishing his ‘buddy’ Stone Cold good luck! Shouldn’t he at least pretend to be impartial? And now he’s disrespecting your ceremony - and there I was thinking he had done a good job.
Dynamite: Yes, I thought your warnings would make him see sense but this bastid needs to be taught some manners.Jim Ross: I had a feeling this was coming, guys.
Commentator #2: If I were you I’d make a run for it, Ross.Dynamite (turns to Kim): You wanted to see a Stinkface earlier, didn't ya darling? (He smiles) Well...there’s still time.
Kim jumps up and down and claps and tells her security guard Rikishi to get him, Rikishi duly leaves the ring and grabs J.R. at the announce desk and hauls him back in the ring.Commentator #1: Hey unhand him! This is not right!
Commentator #2: Quiet, you want ‘em to go after us too?Bischoff gets nose to nose with J.R.
Bischoff: There’s no one to save you now, J.R., but you can still save yourself. Do what Davey Boy was too proud to do. Get down on your knees, renounce your friendship with Austin and swear allegiance to your King!
The fans scream ‘noooooo’ and chant for ‘Austin’. Dynamite extends his hand and waits for J.R. to kiss it and swear loyalty.
Bischoff: Austin isn’t here, you idiots. This is his only chance. It’s your own choice, J.R. Hail the King, or feel his wrath.
He points to Rikishi.
Bischoff: And feel his ass!
He laughs, as the fans boo. J.R. then asks for Bischoff to let him say something. Bischoff holds the mic towards him.
Jim Ross: Davey Boy was a good man and didn’t deserve what happened to him. I’m not sure I have his courage…
J.R. takes Dynamite by the hand who smiles. Bischoff laughs as the fans scream ‘nooooo’ even louder.
Jim Ross: Dynamite, I wanna say something to you. I think you are one of the greatest wrestlers in the history of our business. I’ve heard Bret Hart speak so highly of you; I’ve seen Chris Benoit do his damnedest to emulate you in this ring. You are an amazing talent.
Bischoff can be seen nodding and mouthing ‘nice flattery, J.R.’ Dynamite nods in approval.
Jim Ross: But as a human being? I'm gonna have to agree with Stone Cold: you are, without a shadow of a doubt, nothing but a no-good, dirty, rotten piece of sh*t! You hear me, damn you?!
The crowd erupt in cheers as Bischoff looks on in shock. Dynamite’s face goes pale and he begins to squeeze the sceptre so hard his hand starts to bleed.
Commentator #1: Oh no, Jim. No.
Dynamite (turns to Rikishi): Humiliate this bastid the way he just did me.I want you to squash him with that big arse of yours. And when you’re done, give him to me so I can shut him up forever.
Rikishi drags J.R. to his feet but as he does so J.R. quickly reaches up towards the mic.
Jim Ross: Wait! Hey Bischoff, there’s one last thing I have to say.
Bischoff: Why bother? Nothing can save you now after that.
Jim Ross: I just wanna ask you If you remember that medical document from MNG's chief medical officer that was left for you earlier, saying Austin couldn’t show up tonight as he wasn’t medically cleared?
Bischoff: Uh yeah, I still have the document in my pocket right now as a matter of fact.
Jim Ross: I don’t suppose, Eric, you have ever met the chief medical officer of this company, have you? And I don't suppose, Eric, you bothered to actually pay attention to the name that signed off on that document, did you?
Bischoff looks confused and takes out the document. He reads it aloud:
Bischoff: Doctor…Hiney?
A smile comes over J.R.’s face.
Jim Ross: That document ain’t worth a damn, you son of a bitch! Looks like you and Dynamite forgot the golden rule – DTA: Don’t Trust Anybody!
.
.
.
.
The fans erupt as Austin’s music suddenly hits. Dynamite, Marty Jones, Bischoff, Kim and Rikishi all look up towards the ramp waiting for Austin.
Then, from behind them, one of the knight ‘statues’ starts to move.
Commentator #2: What is this?!
The ‘knight’ takes off his mask to reveal…Stone Cold Steve Austin!
Dynamite turns around and a look of shock falls over his face as Marty Jones is nailed in the gut with the Union Jack by Austin. Rikishi tries to grab the flag from Austin as Dynamite quickly gets Bischoff, Kim, and a winded Marty Jones out of the ring.
The four of them back away up the aisle while Austin and Rikishi exchange punches. Austin gets the better of it and knocks Rikishi down and then begins assaulting Rikishi with the flag. J.R. smiles as Austin rips off the chain mail and grabs a mic as the fans are going crazy.
Stone Cold (pointing at Rikishi): Hey Dynamite, Ye olde Austin 3:16 says I just whoopeth his asseth!
Like I said in my interview you little mealy-mouthed piece of trash, I will open up a can of whoop-ass on every single one of ya and you just got a small taste of what I’m gonna do to you at Grapplemania, ya little bastard. I will have my revenge on you and Eric Bischoff, and that’s the bottom line cos Stone Cold said so!
Rikishi begins to stagger to his feet.
Austin: You like countdown timers? (He puts his watch to his ear) Well you know what my watch is saying to me? My watch is saying to me it’s time to open up another big ol’ can of whoop ass right now! So if you people want me to give fatass Rikishi here a Stone Cold Stunner, and put some stink on it, then gimme a hell yeah!
Fans: Hell yeah!
Stone Cold then connects with the Stone Cold Stunner on Rikishi and begins stomping on him afterwards as Dynamite and Bischoff look on from the aisle shouting insults. Marty Jones is keeled over holding his gut and Kim is screaming for her bodyguard Rikishi.
Austin’s music hits and he picks up Rikishi and hits another Stunner before taking out some beers and sharing one with J.R.Commentator #2: No wonder J.R. never ran for it – he and Austin must have had this plan all along!
Commentator #1: Way to go, J.R!
From up the ramp, Bischoff has his mic and demands the music be cut off.Bischoff: Stop it! Stop Austin’s music! Stop it now, damn it.
The fans boo.
Bischoff: Oh I bet you two think you’re so clever, huh? Think you got the last laugh, right?
The fans cheer.
Bischoff: Well here’s something which the two of you can raise a toast to: J.R….YOU’RE… FIRED!!!
The fans boo as J.R. looks on crestfallen. Austin shakes his head and can be heard talking trash to Bischoff and Dynamite who exit up the ramp with smiles on their faces, dragging Kim and Marty away with them.Commentator #1: Oh no, I can’t believe this. Thank God Stone Cold was here to help J.R., but Bischoff has struck back in cruel fashion.
What has Austin got in mind now for next week, I wonder?
Don’t miss next week’s show which is our last stop on the road to Grapplemania!

The Beyond Chaos commentary team welcome us to Monday Night Chaos and the show kicks off with the familiar tune of Vince McMahons theme. Out comes Vince McMahon and hes flanked by his new security team of Abyss and Matt Morgan.
Vince begins talking about Jarrett and how much he has him by the balls. He says the situation is simple, as controlling shareholder, hes in charge and that he will continue to humiliate Jarrett and make his life a misery, stating that Jarretts personal hell has been a long time coming. He says Jeff cant leave because he needs the money and if he does leave that he will leave penniless. McMahon then has a good laugh as he reminds everyone of how he made Jarrett join the “Vince McMahon Kiss My Ass Club” last week and ponders aloud at what he can do this week.
Vince McMahon : Will I make him dress up like a country music stare and strut? Hahahaha
Vince changes his tune a little and says that hes a fair man and wants to give Jarrett a fighting chance. He says hes got a proposition for Jarrett and its a hell of an offer. Vince calls out Jeff and after a few moments out comes Jeff Jarrett!
Jeff walks down to the ring to a great response from the crowd, who are rapid with the tension in the air. Jeff stops short of entering and stares off with Vince and co McMahon continues.
Vince McMahon : Wow Jeff, look at these fans huh? Everyone in this arena wants to see you tear my head off, Am I right folks? Everyone here wants to see you get your hands on me and to be honest I smell money making in all of this.
The fans cheer in agreement.
Vince McMahon : And theres nothing I like more than doing good business. So how about this Jeff, ......imagine it, ...Vince McMahon versus Jeff Jarrett at Chaos Rising Pay Per View in 2 weeks time. You’d like that wouldn’t you?
The fans cheer again and Jarrett looks emotionless starring at Vince as McMahon continues
Commentator 1 : What ? Why would Vince agree to that? Whats the catch?
Vince McMahon : Hell Ill make it more interesting, Vince McMahon versus Jeff Jarrett, winner takes it all with the company on the line, what do you say Jeff?
Vince grabs a clipboard from Abyss and it has what appears to be a contract on it.
Vince McMahon : Well, you can have it all Jeff. I have had this contract drawn up and we can make it official if you sign on the dotted line.
Jarrett looks sceptical and is just waiting for the catch, as are the hometown fans.
Vince McMahon : I can make it happen Jeff, rather you can make it happen Jeff ........... under one condition of course............................ Last week I noticed your lovely Wife Karen.
Jarretts face looks disgusted as Vince mentions his wife as McMahon goes on.
Vince McMahon : She’s quite the looker isn’t she? Ill admit it, I was quite smitten by her last week. Her luscious lips....her gorgeous figure....her ample breasts!
Jeff Jarrett looks disgusted with each word Vince says regarding his wife, as McMahon has what can only be described as a perverted look on his face!
Vince McMahon : Shes my kind of woman Jeff, and personally I think she can do a lot better than you. So my offer for you : Ill give you what you want if........................... you give me one night alone with you’re wife!
Jarrett looks sick to his stomach and walks off without even considering it!
Vince McMahon : What do you say Jeff, Me and Karen Jarrett 1 on 1! C’mon!
Jarrett is ignores Vines proposal as he walks away in anger and disgust.
Vince McMahon : Whats the matter Jeff? Its your chance to beat the hell out of me, get rid of me and keep your company. Jeff, Most of all Jeff, its your wife’s chance to finally sleep with a man who really is “King of the Mountain”!!!
Jarrett stops and stares a hole back at Vince from the entrance ramp as the anger boils within him.
Vince McMahon : Hell Jeff, I can end your nightmare Jeff, all you have to do is let your wife be ‘Queen of my Mountain’, If you catch my drift!
Vince smiles like sex crazed lunatic as Jeff snaps and races to the ring to attack Vince.
Commentator 1 : Jeff Jarretts had enough.
But as Jeff slides into the ring he is met with boots by Abyss and Morgan. Both men beat Jarrett down as Vince watches with glee. They lift Jeff up and deliver a massive double chokeslam to their former friend and Vince sadistically smiles with approval, as the crowd boo heavily. Vince and his henchmen pose as we go to our first commercial.We are back and out comes rookie star Timothy Thatcher. Thatcher makes his way down to ringside and we can see his arm is heavily tapped up following the effects of being locked in Nigel McGuinness’s ‘London Dungeon’ submission. Timothy gets on the mic and thanks the fans for all their support lately. Thatcher talks up how big an honour it is to challenge for the Intercontinental Title at the Chaos Rising PPV and how he hopes his arm will be healed by then.
This brings out an angry Nigel McGuiness with his IC title around his waist.
The IC champ claims that Thatcher got lucky last week but reminds his fellow brit that even though he earned his title shot last week that he still tapped out and felt the pain of his London Dungeon Submission. Nigel laughs and says hes noticed that Thatcher is already using his injured arm as an excuse and says hes pathetic.
Thatcher : Even if my arm isn’t healed, I’ll still give you the fight of you’re life.
McGuinness : Funny you should say that, because I’ve been speaking with Mr McMahon earlier and hes agreed to move your title shot to tonight, ..........or to be more precise, hes moved it to right now!!!
A ref rushes to the ring and much to the shock of Thatcher, we have an Intercontinental Title match.
Nigel McGuinness (c) versus Timothy Thatcher
McGuinness and Thatcher lock up and McGuinness soon takes advantage, working over the injured arm of Thatcher with vicious hard strikes. Thatcher holds his arm in pain, as McGuinness plays up to the crowd cockily. Spotting a chance to get some offence in Thatcher catches McGuinness off guard as he poses, catching him with stiff lefts which leave McGuinness rocked. Thatcher then goes for a vertical suplex but his arm is too weak and McGuinness counters with an arm drag. McGuinness then wrenches Thatchers arm and turns it into a pump handle slam, which leaves Thatcher in pain on the canvas while Nigel poses.
McGuinness looks like he means business as he drags Thatcher up and wraps Thatcher in a standing arm bar. With Thatcher in position, Nigel hits a modified belly to belly suplex with the arm cradled to devastating effect! Thatcher is in agony as McGuinness stomps over the arm some more, only stopping to shout insults at the fallen Thatcher. McGuinness then calls for the London Dungeon submission.
McGuinness drags Timothy to centre of the ring and stands over him taunting the crowd. Nigel leans into taunt Thatcher some more but Thatcher springs up and cradles McGuinness in a small package for the upset...1...2......3!!!
Winner and NEW Intercontinental Champion, Timothy Thatcher!
Commentator 1 : Out of nowhere. The rookie did it, Timothy Thatcher has stunned McGuinness. The young man from England has upset the odds!
Nigel is stunned as the bell rings and Thatcher scurries to the outside. Thatcher looks in disbelief as the referee hands Thatcher the title as the ring announcer announces his victory over the mic. Nigel is arguing with the referee as Thatcher clutches the gold and slowly celebrates to the back as we cut to commercial!We are backstage and a Beyond Chaos reporter introduces Shawn Michaels. Shawn is head to toe in his hunting attire and is asked about Jake and the non contact clause, Shawn tells the reporter that theres ways to hurt Jake around that clause. Michaels then says he does some hunting in his spare time and tonight hes going hunting! He says there’s more than one way to skin a cat... or rather more than one way to skin a snake!!!
Commentator 1 : What does that mean, whats Shawn Michaels hinting at?We are back and the camera is on the big neon sign of the set of Enzo Amores Party Penthouse. Enzo welcomes us to his talk segment and introduces his guest Harry Smith
Harry Smith comes down and Enzo talks about Harrys Dad and quips that he isn’t much of a dog person. Harry ignores Enzos bad joke and goes on to talk about what happened with him and Tyson Kidd last week.
Footage rolls and we get a recap of Tyson attacking Smith post match and effectively ending there friendship. Harry talks about how many famous Tag Teams have broken up and that he believes he and his former partner Tyson Kidd never reached their full potential. Hes had a week to think about what happened and hes upset at how things went down lately between he and Tyson. Harry says hes willing to be the bigger man and he wants to patch things up with Kidd.
Enzo Amore with a hint of sarcasm says hes touched before inviting Tyson Kidd to The Party Penthouse. Tyson Kidd strolls out and gets on the mic.
Tyson Kidd : Harry, Im sorry for last week and sorry the way I’ve acted.
Commentator : That’s big of Tyson.
Tyson Kidd : I should know better. You’re not at my level and sometimes I forget that. I forget that your still behind me in the talent stakes and I should be more understanding.
Harry doesn’t look impressed as Kidds ego continues to run. Harry eventually has enough and pushes Kidd and Kidd pushes back. Both men go nose to nose as Enzo backs off. Both men mouth harsh words at each other and are about to come to blows when the music of Owen Hart interrupts them and out comes The King Of Harts. Owen steps into the ring and grabs a mic off Enzo
Owen Hart : Look at you two, are you guys kidding me? Your practically brothers and look at you guys. Your repeating the mistakes of the past!
Owen stares down at both like two young pups as both Tyson and Smith are very much fired up.
Owen Hart : A good while ago, the Hart Family was in tatters, me, Bret, Davey Boy, Jim...we all broke our family’s heart by fighting. We were raised to love each other and because of our competitiveness, we lost sight of that. Me and Bret used to hate each other. We lost sight of our love for years. Then I and Davey Boy nearly went down the same road. Back then I was too competitive and it took Bret to come out and bring the family back together. Now I see you two about to tear each other apart and its killing me. So its time for me to do for you, what Bret did for me.
Owen drops the mic and starts talking to both men. We cant really make out what exactly been said but it gets very heated an emotional between the 3 Hart family members but eventually Tyson sincerely extends his hand to Harry Smith and Harry quickly grabs it and hugs Kidd! Owen looks on very proudly and then they have a group hug and Owen appears to have mended things.
Commentator 1 : Are the Hart Family back together?
Commentator 2: It appears that way, Owen looks like to have talked them round.
Enzo Amore : Dr Phil eat your heart out, The Hart Family is back and its all thanks to me, Enzo Amore!!!
The music of Owen plays and all 3 men then leave the ring with arms over each others shoulder as we cut to an ad breakWe are back and Shane Helms comes out to a nice reaction. Helms gets on the mic and says he wants to inspire people and in particular he wants to inspire his friend Shannon Moore.
Shane Helms : Shannon, I know your back there. Id love for you to come out here to the ring and I promise Ill inspire you!
After a moment, Shannon Moore walks out and hes looking a bit down as he usually does these days since being on his losing streak.
Shane Helms : Now, I know its been a while since you caught a break, but Im here to show you it wont last for ever. Everyone goes through a bad patch. I have, and most wrestlers have too. Im here firstly to say Im behind you and all these fans are behind you.
The fans begin chanting Shannon’s name but Shannon still seems down.
Shane Helms : Now I know its been tough and your down on your luck, but Ive got a surprise for you
Shane throws his arm casually over Moores shoulder and points to the back.
Shane Helms : Come on out here, c’mon!
Out comes to no real response is ....Barry Horowitz!
Horowitz shakes the hand of Helms and grabs a mic. Horowitz informs Moore that he come out here because he Shane asked him to give you a pep talk. Barry goes on to say that many people may not remember him, but hes now retired. Barry tells Shannon that at one time in the mid 90’s he was on an even worse losing streak than Shannon. He says he was considered the ultimate loser. Barry says he’d come out and he’d lose every night and each lose helped push him further into depression and he never thought he’d get a win. Horowitz tells Shannon that he had 399 consecutive loses and no one ever gave him a chance
Barry Horowitz : But that all changed with one match. I wrestled Chris Candido one night and he over looked me and I stole a victory. I was stoked and couldn’t believe it. That win gave me the confidence to believing myself again. From there I won many more matches and even went on a bit of a winning streak and its only when I looked back that I realised that when I thought like a winner and believed in myself, that I would have the power to win. What Im trying to say, the power is inside you, once you just believe in yourself.
Shane Helms : See Shannon, all you have to do is believe. I know you can turn it around. I was the same way and you can turn it around too. When I was the Hurricane I believed in myself and I turned my fortunes around . When Barry believed in himself he turned things around too. I believe in you and I know you cant do it!
Shannon stares at both Horowitz and his friend Shane Helms before walking off silently. Both Horowitz and Helms look disillusioned as Moore walks to the back. Shannon can be heard muttering ‘I know what I have to do now’.
Commentator 1 : What is Shannon going to do?We are backstage with Owen Hart, Harry Smith and Tyson Kidd who all appear to be back on the same page. Owens giving them a pep talk about how the Hart Family are a force to be reckoned with and tonight they show that and make a statement.We switch to another part of the backstage area, and we see Beyond Chaos Champion, Jake Roberts. Roberts is looking frantic and appears to be looking for something as hes tossing chairs and other objects in the locker room.
Jake Roberts : That son of a bitch Michaels, hes stolen Damien!
Commentator 1 : Is this what Shawn meant with his hunting comment earlier? Has Shawn Michaels stolen Jakes pet snake?
Jake storms off in search of Michaels and his snake as we go to ringside.Shawn Michaels makes his way out for his match and doesn’t do any of his usual fanfare entrance, instead coldly walks to the ring with a sinister look on his face. Next out is his opponent Magnum TA. Magnums leg is notably taped up from last weeks attack by Owen Hart.
Magnum climbs the apron before the bell rings and stares down Michaels. Suddenly before he enters, hes attacked from behind by The Hart Family. All 3 men beat Magnum TA down as HBK watches sinisterly from the ring. Owen works over the leg of Magnum and locks in a sharpshooter on the mat as Harry and Tyson lay the boots in. Magnum screams in pain as Owen synchs in the hold. Referees come down and eventually drag the Harts off and push them backstage. Magnum is hurt but refuses help and says he wants to fight anyway. After a bit of arguing the ref is persuaded to ring the bell by magnum and our match starts.
Magnum TA Vs Shawn Michaels.
Magnum is struggling as the bell rings and Michael’s wastes no time in attacking him with a flurry of right hands. Shawn takes control and nails Magnum with a flying forearm off the ropes. Magnum is still showing the effects of Owens attack and is measured up for a Sweet Chin Music super kick, which Shawn hits to perfection on the jaw of TA.
Shawn then refuses to cover him and instead tunes up the band once more. Magnum very slowly and gingerly gets to his feet and is immediately met with another super kick which lays him out cold. Shawn places his foot over his fallen body and the ref counts to 3 for the win.
Winner : Shawn Michaels
Shawn is impressive even though Magnum was attacked before the bout, Shawn was clinical in his victory. Shawn begins to slowly walk up the ramp when he’s confronted by Jake Roberts.
Jake screams at Shawn about the whereabouts of his pet snake. Shawn doesn’t respond to Jake with any words, instead he justs offers a chilling smile much to the anger of Jake .
Commentator 1 : Remember Jake cant touch Shawn or he loses his newly won Heavyweight Title.
Jake keeps screaming at Shawn, asking where Damien is but Shawn just keeps on walking. Jake grabs a chair and rushes after Michaels threatening him with a chair. Michaels doesn’t flinch though, instead he still calmly smiles back. Jake in his rage flings the chair off the tron as Michaels walks on.
Commentator 1 : Did Shawn really take Damien?
Commentator 2 : Who knows, but what I do know is that Jake cant touch Shawn and its killing him inside.We are back folks and the music of The New Age Outlaws plays and out comes Billy Gunn and Road Dogg. Road Dogg enters the ring with a mic and says the time for talking is over and he and Billy are calling out the Tag Champs.
Road Dogg : why don’t you two old timers take your angina meds and come out here and face us like men!
After a moment or two, the music of the Midnight Express plays and The Outlaws get ready for a fight in the ring.
Commentator 1: Here we go, the tag champs are coming for a fight!
The camera focuses on the entrance way, but instead of Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton, 2 actual old age pensioners hobble out from behind the curtain much to the laughter of The Outlaws.
Commentator 1: Oh god, its just another bad joke by the Outlaws
One of them is wearing a house robe and carrying an oxygen canister while the other is gingerly using a zimmer frame and wearing pyjamas. Billy and Road Dogg are in stitches in the ring as both pensioners slowly make it into the ring. Road Dogg begins questioning them .....
Road Dogg : Well if it isn’t Senile Stan Lane and Baffled Bobby Eaton. I see you guys made it safely from the old folks home, did you’s get the trolley here?
Both old timers are struggling to breath and look confused as to whats going on.
Billy Gunn : I don’t think their hearing aids are turned on Roadie.
Road Dogg : Well, either way, lets do this Billy. Lets put these two dinosaurs out to pasture.
Road Dogg and Billy drop their mics and go after the two old men. Billy snatches the oxygen tank from one and Road Dogg kicks the zimmer frame away on the other. The man who needs the frame falls over and Billy proceeds to mockingly pin him.
Commentator 1 : this is too far, The outlaws are going too far.
Billy and Road Dogg pretend to celebrate as the two pensioners struggle in the ring. Suddenly the real Midnight Express race to the ring and the Outlaws scarpper fast to the outside. Lane and Eaton check on the two pensioners as Road Dogg and Billy Gunn retreat backstage.
Commentator 1 : In two weeks time these two teams square off for the Tag Titles and the time for jokes will be over.We are in the office of Vince McMahon and hes talking with his security team when suddenly his office door opens and much to the shock of Vince its........... ...Karen Jarrett.
Karen Jarrett : Your proposition earlier...... I’ll do it.
Karen grabs the contract on Vinces desk and signs it.
Commentator 1 : What! She’s willing to be with Vince to get Jarrett his chance to win control of Beyond Chaos! That means Vince versus Jarrett in 2 weeks time at Chaos Rising.
Commentator 2 : And it means Karen is going to spend the night with Vince McMahon. Does Jeff know about this?
Vince is beaming as Karen signs the contract and flings it back at him as we cut to ringside.B.A. Billy Gunn is out first and is joined by his partner Road Dogg. . Outcomes Jake Roberts and he’s all fired up as he hits the ring.
Billy Gunn versus Jake Roberts (non title)
Roberts starts off like a man possessed clubbing Billy with some stiff rights and lefts, knocking Gunn on his back. Roberts recklessly lunges at Billy with a clothesline but Billy ducks. Road Dogg then causes a distraction and allows Billy to get the upper hand. The ref sees this though and orders Road Dogg to the back, but hes arguing and refusing to go. Suddenly The Midnight Express appear and start clubbing Roadie from behind and drag him to the back, leaving Billy on his own with Jake.
Commentator 1 : The Midnight Express extracting some revenge on Road Dogg.
Billy still has the advantage and hits an impressive tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Mr Ass is quick and fast with his strikes, nailing Jake with neat left hooks before hitting a fishermans suplex for a near fall. Gunn then nails Roberts with a thunderous enzuigiri kick to the temple. Billy Gunn is in control as he stalks Roberts and wraps him up with a sleeper hold.
Commentator 1: Wow what an enzuigiri by Billy Gunn, Jake hasn’t been with it all match. His mind is obviously on other things.
Commentator 2 : Its lights out for Jake, Billy has the sleeper locked in tight.
Jake is fading, as Gunn tightens the hold. The ref checks on Roberts and he’s still fighting it. Roberts some how finds some strength and fights back with a string of elbows until Billy breaks the hold. Its comeback time as Roberts ducks a couple of clotheslines and nails a cross body out of nowhere. Jake gets up and nails Billy with a flurry of clotheslines in quick succession. Gunn slowly gets to his feet and gets nailed with a running knee lift and Jake signals a DDT and he hits it!
Commentator 1 : Game over for Mr Ass
Commentator 2: Wait what’s this! It’s Shawn Michaels.
…. Shawn appears on the tron and this distracts Jake before he can make a pin. Shawn is in the parking garage and opens the boot to his car to reveal.......Damien, Jakes Snake, in his boot.
Commentator 1 : My god thats Damien in there. Shawn did steal Damien! What the hell is he up to?
Shawn quickly closes the boot and hopes in the drivers seat. Jake sees this and sprints to the back after Shawn. The ref begins to count Jake out and sure enough he does, making Bad Ass Billy Gunn the winner via count out...
Winner : (via count out) BA Billy Gunn
Jake rushes backstage to the parking garage but is too late...Shawn speeds away and takes Damien with him much to Jakes anger.
Commentator 1 : Shawn has just kidnapped.......er..... Snake-knapped Damien. Whats Michaels going to do with Jakes pet snake!
Jake screams in anger as Shawns car goes out of sight. The camera though zooms in on another part of the parking lot and we see in the distance that Karen Jarrett is leaving in Vinces Limo
Commentator 2 : Thats Karen Jarrett leaving with Vince. Is she really going through with Vinces indecent proposal??? Does her husband Jeff know this?
Karen and Vince step into the limo and it drives off as we fade to black.Matches set for Chaos Rising PPV

Fusion Pro Wrestling TVWeek 1 - The Road Continues
For the previous few weeks, the women of Fusion Pro Wrestling have been competing in a tournament to crown to the first ever Fusion Pro Wrestling Womens Champion. The final shall take place at our upcoming PPV "Queen of The Ring." The past few weeks of match ups have been exciting, and each week has gotten better and better. We are down to the final 8 women and the brackets look like this:
Lita
vs.
Manami Toyota
Sasha Banks
vs.
Mickie James
Charlotte
vs.
Gail Kim
Emma
vs.
Trish Stratus
Tonight, these four matches will take place, next week we shall have our semi finals and the final match up shall take place at Queen of the Ring. We are not wasting any time, our first match up, Lita vs. Manami Toyota is kicking off right now!
Match One
Lita vs. Manami ToyotaBoth women are joined by corner people, with Lita bringing out AJ Lee in her corner and Manami having former tag partner Akira Hokuto in hers. This is a hard hitting match up with both women giving it their all. Lita keeps trying to use her speed as she knows fighting on the ground will be her own downfall. The crowd are split 50/50 for the match. Lita goes for a top rope moonsault, however Manami springs up at the last minute and uses Litas own momentum to turn it into a school boy pin up for the victory. Manami progress onto the semi finals.
After the match, there is a handshake, but Lita looks incredibly disappointed in herself for loosing in such a fashion. AJ Lee offers Lita some words on encouragement, reminding her that she will always be her biggest fan and no matter what she will go down as one of the very best. Lita tells AJ a few times to stop and that she's ok, but AJ's constant praise is clearly getting to Lita as we go to a break.
We are joined backstage by Sasha Banks and Sable. These two have formed an alliance over the previous few weeks. Sable speaks to the interviewer:My girl Sasha Banks is going to own this tournament because she has already aligned herself with the best. To make it in this business doesn't take being the best wrestler, it's about making those dollars rain. Manami Toyota doesn't make it rain. Gail Kim doesn't make it rain. Aja Kong doesn't make it rain. You know who makes that cash money? Me. And why? Because I am a Diva. Wrestlers don't make it this sport, Divas do. Not everyone is cut out to be a Diva, but Sasha Banks here is the future of this industry. She won't waist time learning with rest holds or 40 different submissions; she will be fierce and bring it.
Sasha Banks and Sable high five and make their way to the ring for Sasha's match against Mickie James. We cut to Mickie James leaving her dressing room, making her way to the ring.
Match 2
Sasha Banks vs. Mickie JamesSasha is playing very dirty in this match, with Sable on the outside distracting the ref several times when James looks to gain an advantage. The match ends when Sasha grabs a set of kunckle dusters with "boss" written on them and clocks Mickie in the jaw while the ref is distracted.
Sable joins Sasha in the ring as the two stand over the knocked out Mickie James. They dance and refuse to move out of the way for trainers looking to check on the injured James. They eventually leave declaring that the Divas will dominate the women.
Our interviewer is joined backstage by someone no longer in the tournament, Havok. She is asked what she intends to do to make an impact in the company.It very simple, I will make myself known to everyone as the most dangerous women in this locker room. The other women in that tournament are lucky I'm not involved, as anyone who faced me would be playing with their careers. I will dominate and no one will be able to stand in my way. Look through that roster, there isn't a single woman who could stand toe to toe with a beast like me.
The interviewer goes quiet as Bull Nakona appears behind Havok. Havok turns around and goes nose to nose against Bull. She asks her "You want to go up against me? I've eaten bigger bulls than you for breakfast." Nakona simply replies "Next week, you and me. Let's find out who the most dangerous women here really is." We fade to a commercial break.
We are in the trainers room with Mickie James. She has a swollen jaw from the attack by Sasha. She is joined by Trish Stratus, who is disgusted at the actions of Sable and Sasha Banks. She promises Mickie that she will fight for her honour and the honour of all the women who dedicate their lives to perfecting their craft. Trish is told her match up is next so she leaves the office to make her way to the ring. On the way she bumps into Sable, who says nothing but just gives a knowing grin.
Match 3
Trish Stratus vs EmmaBoth women are well over with the crowd and begin with a hand shake. This is a slow starting match, with some comedy spots littered at the beginning. The match slowly builds, with Emma almost getting the victory when she locks in the Emma-lock. Sable makes her way to the ringside, yawning and posing in front of the cameras. Both women are clearly irritated by this, but do their best to ignore Sable. They decide to kick it up a gear and really go toe to toe with some fast paced action, fighting spirit and big spots, which the crowd goes crazy for. Emma eventually succumbs to a massive chick kick and Trish takes the win.
After the match, Sable walks to the back while the crowd give both women a massive standing ovation. This was an incredible match. Trish lifts Emmas hands up out of respect and both women dance the only way Emma can.
Backstage, we catch up with Emma, who is disappointed that she didn't make it through, but can hold her head up high that she was involved in one of the best wrestling matches these people have ever seen. She gets our interviewer to dance with her when suddenly Aja Kong comes bursting through the set and rocks Emma with right hooks to the face. Emma is out cold and Aja leaves the scene.
Beth Phoenix and Natalya are out, as we gear up for tag team action between them and Victoria & Ivory
Match 4
The Divas of Doom vs Victoria and IvoryThis match is a back and forth afair, and more so than anything is to establish the dominance of The Divas of Doom, with their no nonsense tough style of wrestling. Victoria and Ivory bring their best but in the end they are on the loosing end.
After the match, they announce that at Queen of The Ring, they will be competing in a match to decide the first every Fusion Pro Wrestling Womens Tag Team Champions. They have an open invitation and next week they hope to learn who they will be facing.
Match 5
Gail Kim vs. CharlotteThis is a straight up technical classic. The story going into this is Charlotte wants to showcase that she can hang with the vets while Kim wants to prove to everyone that she is the very best female wrestler in the world. Neither woman holds back, but in the end the experience factor comes into play and Kim catches Charlotte out on a few rookie mistakes and takes the victory.
After the match, Charlotte is joined by NXT trainer Sara Del Rey who tells Charlotte she is proud of her and she has nothing to be ashamed of. Kim and Del Rey hold her hands up, thanks both women and stands in the ring by herself as we end the first show.
Next weeks semi finals look like this:
Manami Toyota vs. Sasha Banks
Gail Kim vs. Trish Stratus0 -
SWE Live Episode 2Backstage: Parking Lot
GM Gorilla Monsoon is waiting in the parking lot. He seems worried and is nervously pacing back and forth. Up drives a limo and stops in front of Monsoon. He can hear loud music and women’s laughter coming from inside. The door opens and out comes Triple H with a drink in one hand and a cigar in the other hand.Gorilla Monsoon: Where have you been? I’ve been waiting for you for hours. I want to talk to you about what happened last week.Triple H: What happened last week? I gave the crowd a show, i won my match. What more do you want?Gorilla Monsoon: The crowd were not happy, they want to be entertained with a proper match, not something that’s over in 10 seconds.Triple H: That’s not my fault. Maybe you should provide tougher opposition for the King of Kings. Until then i will do what i want when i want and there’s nothing you can do about it.
Match: The Usos vs The Gangstas
The Gangsta’s, New Jack and Mustafa Saed head down to the ring accompanied by their enforcer Junkyard Dog and his bag of weapons. They are intent on revenge for their loss to the Uso’s last week. The Uso’s come out to their usual traditional war dance and the crowd go crazy for them.
New Jack is squaring up to Jimmy Uso in the ring and as they circle around, Junkyard Dog hops up on the apron. This distracts Jimmy and allows New Jack to attack. The Gangsta’s have control and a series of quick tags leaves Jimmy Uso in a lot of trouble. A big boot from Mustafa leaves Jimmy flat in the middle of the ring. New Jack is tagged and hops up on the top turnbuckle and launches a diving headbutt. Jimmy just manages to roll away and New Jack hits the mat and is in pain. The crowd get excited as Jimmy slowly makes his way over to Jey and just manages to tag Jey in before New Jack can reach him. Jey unleashes a flurry of offense that has taken the wind out of both New Jack and Mustafa. Jimmy Uso has regained some energy and joins his brother in the ring to first give New Jack a Samoan Drop and then another to Mustafa.
New Jack has rolled out of the ring but Mustafa is lying flat in the middle of the ring. Jey Uso climbs to the top turnbuckle ready to deliver a Samoan Splash but is unexpectedy hit from behind by a chair from Junkyard Dog. The ref calls for the bell and disqualifies The Gangstas. Junkyard Dog keeps going though and hits Jimmy Uso as well with the steel chair. What follows is each of the Gangstas taking a weapon out of the bag and using them on the Usos until they are both unconscious. The Gangstas stand over their opponents and raise their hands in victory despite their disqualification.
Backstage: Gorilla Monsoon & SheamusGorilla Monsoon: Congratulations on winning the Battle Royal last week and earning yourself a title match at Spongemania.Sheamus: Thanks fella, it really wasn’t very hard. Have had tougher days in the schoolyards of Dublin. And what about my opponent for that match?Gorilla Monsoon: Well i’m going to have a match this evening between the two wrestlers who were eliminated last in the Battle Royal, Jeff Hardy and Bobby Roode with the winner facing you at Spongemania.Sheamus: Nice one fella, sure i may as well take a gander at that one meself ringside.Gorilla: Thats ok but i need to ask one favour from you. Last week Christopher Daniels and Eric Young were whinging about your interference in that match. I’ve rescheduled the match for tonight so can i ask you not to do the same tonight. Would save me a lot of grief from them.Sheamus: A bunch of moaning ****es. I thought we were here to fight. But since you asked nicely i’ll leave them toerags be (he laughs and heads off)Match: Christopher Daniels vs Eric Young for the SWE Interprovincial Championship
Christopher Daniels and Eric Young make their way down to the ring to compete for the vacant SWE Interprovincial Championship. This is a rematch from the previous week that was interrupted by Sheamus. They shake hands once again before the bell rings and the match gets underway. Just like the previous week the match starts with several holds being applied by both and all countered successfully by their opponent. Young fires Daniels into the corner but Daniels runs up the turnbuckles, jumps off the top turnbuckle and hits Young with a diving Crossbody. Daniels has control and follows it up with a running neckbreaker and a reverse STO which then allows Daniels to apply the Koji clutch. Young is in agony but refuses to tap out.
Without Daniels seeing, Al Snow slides into the ring and hits Daniels on the head with a foreign object. It’s a mannequin head. Daniels is dazed and Snow follows it up with repeated hits from the mannequin head. The referee calls for an end to the match and Daniels manages to escape the ring. Young gets to his feet and the crowd assume Snow was interfering on Young’s behalf. However that changes when Snow hits Young repeatedly with the mannequin head. Young also manages to escape the beating and that leaves Snow in the ring with his mannequin head soaking in the jeers from the crowd.
Backstage Interview: The Usos
The Uso’s are backstage with the backstage interviewer.Q. What are your thoughts on what happened earlier in your match with The Gangstas? Jimmy replies “You mean the beating myself and Jey took at the hands of those thugs. They couldn’t beat us one on one so they bring in that dog of an enforcer to save their ass. Well let me tell you this, nobody does that to the Uso family and gets away with it. There are consequences when you attack a proud Samoan family like ours and you will feel those consequences next week.” (Jimmy walks off)Jey adds “Next week Gangstas, two become three in the Uso family.”
Match: Triple H vs Jobber No. 2
The King of Kings, Triple H once again makes a spectacular entrance. The crowd are not as enthusiastic as they were the previous week. Triple H is once again staggering a bit as he gets to the ring, and also appears a little out of breath. He takes off his crown and the bell sounds for the start of the match.
The jobber runs at Triple H and manages to get a few hits in. Triple H seems stunned and manages to push the jobber away. He follows it up with a kick to the gut and quickly followed up by a Pedigree. Triple H gets another win in a very short match. Triple H raises his hand but is met by muted applause.
Triple H’s celebration is ended short as AJ Styles music blares and he comes out to the stage with a mic in his hand.“Look at you, look at the sorry state that the once great King of Kings has become. It’s more like looking at the Joker of the pack. It’s time for you to step aside old man and welcome in the Age of Styles. Your time here is done, make way for the future of this business, AJ Styles.”Triple H: I am the greatest wrestler of all time, there is no way that you could go toe to toe with me and survive. You are no match for the King of Kings and i do not wish to waste my time showing you that. Get lost and never come back.”AJ Styles: You will be seeing a lot more of me because i had a little discussion with the GM Gorilla Monsoon and he was very happy that i wanted to fight the King of Kings. He has sanctioned the match for next week.” The crowd cheer as even though they don’t like AJ Styles they do like that Triple H will be in a decent match to prove himself.
Backstage Interview: Tito SantanaQ. What did you make of Bobby Roode’s comments to you last week? “Well i must admit i was a little insulted by that. He called my hand dirty. I clean my hands every day (Santana smiles). Seriously, the world is full of upper class people just like Bobby Roode. I’m sure he has plenty of Mexicans working for him and that’s because they are hard working and honest. To be called honest and hard working is a good thing so i can’t be insulted by that. I’m a friendly guy and want to make lots of friends here in the SWE so I’ll introduce myself to Mr Roode again later and maybe we can become amigos”
Match: Michelle McCool vs Layla in a mud wrestling match
The assistant GM Pamela Anderson is in the ring where there is a paddling pool containing mud. She has the mic“As you all know i have been put in charge of the divas division and i know what all ye wrestling fans want......sex (Anderson winks at the crowd). Ye want to see scantily clad sexy ladies grope and rub up against each other and what better way to see that than in a mud wrestling match (Anderson giggles very excitedly). So lets bring on down the divas and get this match underway.”
Michelle McCool and Layla make their way down to the ring and are looking very apprehensive at the assistant GM. Anderson urges both of them to get into the mud but both refuse. Anderson pushes McCool into the mud and she is livid. Anderson celebrates and the crowd cheer for the muddy McCool.
Anderson then manages to push Layla into the mud and once again Anderson cheers whilst Layla is livid. With both of the divas in the mud, Anderson urges them to wrestle but they refuse. Instead they get up and grab Anderson and throw her into the mud. The crowd cheer louder and Anderson plays up to this by rolling around in the mud. McCool and Layla leave the ring in disgust at the level of wrestling they are being asked to do.
Match: Jeff Hardy v Bobby Roode (Winner gets into the SWE Heavyweight Championship match at Spongemania)
Sheamus is the first to come down to the ring. He is there to join the commentary team and also see who he will fight for the vacant SWE Heavyweight Championship belt at Spongemania. Next down to the ring is Bobby Roode along with Layla who is carrying with her a bottle of Champagne. As soon as he gets in the ring he grabs the mic to address the crowd.“The time for celebration is close to hand. After I defeat Jeff Hardy tonight and go on to Spongemania to defeat Sheamus and become SWE World Heavyweight Champion we will celebrate by opening this bottle of champagne and toast my success. You people can join me too with your bottles of Buckfast (the crowd boos at the Buckfast reference) because this is as close as you will get to the upper class.”
Roode is in control and already celebrating his inevitable victory when out comes Tito Santana to the ring unbeknownst to Roode. He cheekily grabs the bottle of champagne from Roode’s corner but is quickly spotted by Layla who attempts to grab the bottle back. Roode spots this and attempts to intervene but the ref stops him and they can’t get the bottle back. As Roode turns his attention back to Hardy he is hit by a Twist of Fate by Hardy. Hardy follows this up with a Swanton Bomb from the top rope and this is enough to get the pinfall victory. Tito Santana is laughing as he retreats up the ramp with the stolen bottle of champagne.
Hardy is celebrating the victory that gives him a SWE Heavyweight Championship match at Spongemania. Sheamus slides into the ring and squares up to Hardy. Neither seems to be backing down until Sheamus smiles, pats Hardy on the shoulder and tells him “Well done”, then slowly backs away gesturing that he is the one who will win the title at Spongemania.

Randy Orton how do you feel about the comments made about you last week by the WECWF World Heavyweight Champion The American Dream Dusty Rhodes.Randy Orton
How do I feel? HOW DO I FEEL??? Feelings don't mean jacksh*t to me. I've spent my whole career ending other peoples careers. Why? Because I can. Because they didn't deserve to be in that ring with me in the first place, that ring, my fu*king ring. I haven't just taken the name the Legend Killer. Whether you believe me or not i don't give a sh*t, I've earned it. I've earned it because I've ended the legend of more veterans of this business than any other man. And only because i love that feeling of having another mans livelihood in the palm of hand so much. Its a drug like no other, and its a drug I crave every day of my life. So that fat bast*rd Dusty Rhodes can talk all the sh*t he wants, but until he beats me 1.. 2... 3... I will be exactly what he says I am.. That's his American Nightmare.. Because in 2 weeks Dusty Rhodes.. I'm ending the legend of the American Dream.
Orton hits the RKO outta nowhere.. He Lifts up Credible and hits another RKO.. Then holds him up on the turnbuckle and hits one last RKO. The referee is given little choice but to disqualify Orton as paramedics heck on the clearly unconscious Justin Credible..Jim Cornette
Eugene you dumb little bastard you stay over there and don't move.
Lance my friend me and you go way way back.Hell I was the first person in the USA to book you back in the dayLance Storm

Russo me and the Hitman have NOTHING to speak you about. Not only do we not trust you, but we don't like you. As far as were concerned joining Sports Entertainment Revolution is nothing but a means to an end. And thats forcing the end of The Freebirds careers.Jim Cornette
Russo, son if this isn't proof that your a no good piece of sh*t then nothing is.Even Hart and Neidhart don't even want anything to do with you.Michael PS Hayes
So this is the famous Hart Foundation then? Well listen you boys are nothing but Pink and Black wearing pussy's. And me and Gordy have proof of that. We gonna kick your dumb as fu*k Canadian Emigrant Asses,
Whoa whoa whoa bros bro Bros!
As he pulls back both members of the Hart FoundationVince Russo
You've both signed those contacts. Which means until the PPV neither of you can put your hands on each other. That's not my rules bro, that's Mr McMahons because if I had my way, I wouldn't give a flying fu*k if you both beat the living **** out of each other right here right now.
Dusty Rhodes vs Masato Tanaka
Joey Styles puts over the fact that Tanaka has made his way over from Japan just to face The American Dream in one on one competition
Both men lock up.. and before the ref even has a chance to ring the bell, Randy Orton hits Tanaka over the back of the head with a chair.. Dusty in a loud audible says motherfu*ker as Randy Orton hightails it to the top of the ramp, as he poses his signature pose as Dusty remains in the ring with a very pissed off look on his face.Dusty Rhodes
Boy you better run because as the Worlds Champion I've made the decision that I want our match at the Mayhem Rising Pay Per View to be a cage match. Because i don't wanna give you the satisfaction of being able to run and hid baby. And Randy you aint killing no dream, and that's a fact jack.

So far on Monday Night Chaos :Vince McMahon continued to torment Jeff Jarrett by offering him a one on one match for control of the company , on one condition......Vince gets to spend a night with his wife! Jarrett declined, but Jarretts wife Karen took Vince up on the offer. What will the fallout be after Vinces indecent proposal?!
Shawn Michaels and Jake Roberts cant touch each other until the Chaos Rising PPV, yet old HBK found a way to get to Jake....by kidnapping his pet snake Damien. What did Michaels do to Damien and will Jake get revenge?
Owen Hart played mediator last week and brought the Hart Family in Beyond Chaos back as a unit. Harry Smith and Tyson Kidd settled their differences after some words of wisdom from Uncle Owen. Now the trio then took out Magnum TA before his match with Shawn Michaels. How will Magnum react and can anyone stop The Hart Family?
Shannon Moore got a pep talk from Barry Horowitz on request from Shane Helms. Has this been enough to inspire Shannon to break his losing streak, will Shannon show up with new found belief?
The New Age Outlaws continued their rivalry with tag champs the Midnight Express, with Stan lane and Bobby Eaton gaining a slight advantage after the Outlaws mocked them again. With 1 week to go until the PPV, which team will gain the advantage going into their match?
Timothy Thatcher shocked Nigel McGuinness again, this time winning the IC title in an impromptu match. How ill Nigel react after being burned by the young rookie?We kick off tonights show in Nashville Tennessee and the crowd are hot as the cameras pan over the crowd. The music of Jake ‘The Snake’ Roberts ramps up and The Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion appears. Jake comes out and the commentators recap what happened last week with Shawn Michaels stealing Jakes pet snake Damien. Jake steps in the ring and gets on the mic and begins speaking in that cagey way that only he does.
Jake Roberts : The old proverb reads ‘be careful what you wish for’, well I wished and prayed that one day Id become Heavyweight Champion of the world and 3 weeks ago I did just that. I realised one of my life long dreams and grabbed that brass ring against all the odds. Ive been to the bottom of the barrel and been in some pretty low places, but when that bell rang after I won Championship Rumble, I was on top of the world...... but it was extremely short lived as the ugly head of jealousy appeared in the former of one Shawn Michaels.
The fans boo at the mention of HBK
Jake Roberts : Since then my biggest moment has been turned into a bitter nightmare. Now Shawn Michaels is a man who has done it all, hes won Tag team championships, Intercontinental championships, Royal Rumbles and multiple Heavyweight Championships and yet it didn’t make him happy. Because of him and his twisted dark jealousy, my celebrations were cut short, my son has been hospitalised and my good friend Damien has been taken away from me. I can take being kicked, beaten, bloodied but no of that truly hurts and my physical wounds always heal but Shawn has attacked me in my heart and soul.
Jake is getting rather emotional as he continues.
Jake Roberts : Shawn has taken aim at my family, my life, my soul, all because he thinks God has forgotten him and forsaken him. My son is in the hospital with a serious concussion because of him and why, because he thinks Im to blame for his short comings. Shawn, truth be told you have forsaken yourself and your actions have made you the man you are today. Your actions show me what kind of man you are, your a scared small little man who tries to hurt others to make himself feel better. This Sunday I will take my snake back, ill get my redemption and I’ll put you out of your misery.
Jake is then interrupted by Shawn Michaels who is live on the tron. Shawn is emotionless and very callous as he seems to be more and more these days.
Shawn Michaels : Hi Jake. I told you, you started this war when you took away my moment, my title, my everything and I told you Id do the same onto you as you did to me. I will make you pay for what you did Jake. I want you to suffer just like I’ve suffered. Since I cant hurt you physically until Sunday, I thought I will hurt those you care about. Hence why I turned my attention to your snake, Damien!
Shawn has Jakes full attention as the fans boo him heavily.
Shawn Michaels : Hes like a friend to you, as most animals are to rotten people like you Jake. This animal can’t talk to you and tell you what a rotten person you really are, thats why he means so much to you, in truth hes your only friend. And because he means so much to you, I know you’ll suffer if anything happens to him and you deserve to suffer Jake.
Jake paces the ring and demands Michaels return his pet at once.
Shawn Michaels : Have you suffered enough Jake ??? What can I do to Damien that will make you suffer? Will I pay Earthquake, the massive 500lb monster to sit on him and make Quaker Burgers out of what’s left?
Commentator : He wouldn’t would he?
Shawn Michaels : No I wouldn’t, that’s not my style Jake. But I do think you need to suffer, you deserve to feel pain just like you made me feel pain. But maybe you’ve suffered enough, maybe. I tell you what Jake, Ill bring Damien to the ring later tonight on my terms. Until then, rest assured hes very comfortable.
Commentator : Damiens comfortable ? Is Shawn finally going to do the right thing?
Jake is going out of his mind with grief and worry as we cut to our first commercial.We return and the camera is backstage in the parking garage as we see a limo arrive. Out steps Vince McMahon and hes got a huge smile on his face. His security team of Abyss and Matt Morgan step out after him and Vince is so happy, he begins strutting like Jeff Jarrett usually does mocking Jarrett in the process I guess. Vince struts off and is followed by his lackeys as we switch to ringside.
Commentator 1 : Vince is here and he looks like hes in a great mood
Commentator 2 : Wouldnt you be after spending a night with Karen Jarrett?!We are back and Owen Hart is on his way out for his match and is joined by his Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith, and all 3 are united.
The commentators note that Magnum TA hasn’t arrived in the building and speculate the extent of his injuries as a result of the beat down dished out by the 3 Harts last week. Out comes Owens opponent Shane Helms.
Shane Helms versus Owen Hart
Its a good back and fourth match up, with Helms more or less holding his own against the elder Hart. Owen gets the win after Tyson causes a distraction and allowing Owen to hit an Enziguri Kick, followed by a Sharpshooter.
Winner : Owen Hart ,
Owen releases the hold and Tyson and Harry slide in and stomp the hell out of the fallen Helms. Owen grabs a mic and tells the crowd that its time for the Hart Family to be dominant again and its time for them to take their rightful place on top of the wrestling world. Harry then picks up Helms and he and Kidd hit the Hart Attack double team on Helms. The fans chant for Magnum and for Shannon Moore but nether come out to make the save.
Commentator 1 : I don’t think Magnums here tonight but where is Shannon Moore
Commentator 2 : probably scared to come out, the little chicken. Off laying eggs somewhere or something.
The Hart Family stand over Helms with their arms aloft while the crowd boo as we cut to a commercial.We return and Jake Roberts is talking with a Beyond Chaos Reporter, Who asks Jake about his up coming non title match later tonight with Nigel McGuinness. Jake tells the reporter that he’ll deal with that when it comes but for now his concern is his pet snake Damien. Jake says that he is worried what he will do to Shawn if anything bad happens to his beloved Damien.We switch back to another part of the locker room and we see the New Age Outlaws. Road Dogg telling Billy Gunn that they need to stop the joking and get serious tonight and make a statement of intent towards The Midnight Express. Billy agrees and says its time to show the old timers tonight that they are on borrowed time. Road Dogg says they’ve got to show Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane that these Outlaws will become Legends and the best way to become legends is by being vicious, unforgiving and down right dirty.
Commentator : What are the Outlaws up to?We switch are backstage again and this time to the parking garage, where we see the Hart Family about to leave the arena. All three are very pleased with beating down Helms later and Owen slags off Magnum TA saying they might have ended his sorry career last week. They arrive at their rental car and Harry and Tyson jump in the back. Owen is about to get in the drivers door when we begin to hear the screech of car tyres off camera and a vehicle accelerating. Owen jumps out of the way as a black pick up truck rams the rental car blocking Tyson and Harry in the back. The camera pans and we see that Magnum TA is the driver. The fans in the arena erupt as Magnum has a crazed look on his face.
Commentator : Magnum TA is here and hes gone postal.
Magnum gets out and starts throwing lefts and rights in Owens direction as Harry and Tyson try to escape their car to no avail. Magnum then slams Owen hard into another car before throwing him head first onto a bonnet of another. With Owen dazed and Smith and Kidd blocked in, Magnum reaches into the back of his truck and grabs a bull rope.
Commentator 1 : Whats Magnum going to do with that bull rope?
Magnum begins to tie Owens legs up and then ties the other end to the back of his truck.
Commentator 2 : Magnums not going to drag Owen off in his truck is he?
Magnum hops in his truck and does a massive wheel spin, teasing to drive off when a host of officials rush out of nowhere and try block Magnums path. Magnum wheel spins some more before driving past the officials who let him past despite their best efforts.
Commentator 1 : Oh my god, has Magnum just dragged Owen away?
Magnum drives away and as the camera pans around we see Owen has some how got free and had a lucky escape! The referees free Smith and Kidd and they check on Owen, as all 3 lick there wounds.We are back at Ringside and the ring is set up for Beyond Chaos’s exclusive talk show...The Party Penthouse and our host with the most is in the ring, Enzo Amore.
Enzo talks about how his show is a certified hit, just like he is with the ladies and he introduces his guest. Its new Intercontinental Champion, Timothy Thatcher.
Thatcher comes out and the fans are truly behind this under dog champion as he steps into the ring. Enzo acts the typical dick that he is and begins by asking just who the hell he is and goes on to say hes tried to do his research on him and hes come up with pretty much nothing. Thatcher replies by saying hes a young man, who has trained hard to be here and was lucky enough to get an opportunity here.
Timothy Thatcher : I may be unknown but I got a chance at the Championship Rumble and I put myself on the map when I eliminated Nigel McGuinness.
Enzo Amore : Well you got lucky there, Nigel was tired from battle Jake and Shawn.
Timothy Thatcher : Then I outlasted the McGuinness again by beating The McGuinness Challenge and earning myself a title shot.
Enzo Amore : But you tapped anyway, which makes you a loser anyways.
Timothy Thatcher : Then I beat Nigel 1...2....3 in the middle of the ring to win this around my waist (points to his IC championship)
Enzo puts him down again saying he got lucky and he must of had a four leafed glover in his trunks. Thatcher gets annoyed at Enzos undermining of his achievements and is about to walk off, but Enzo grabs him and says he should hold on and meet his other guest....Nigel McGuinness.
Nigel comes out and acts all Danny Dyer-like hard man geezer type by getting in Thatchers face.
Nigel McGuinness : Alright sunshine, you think your all that after your little fluke last week eh? Well I’ve envoked my rematch clause and we shall be meeting this Sunday 1 on 1 at Chaos Rising and I will beat the living daylights out of you son. You got lucky last week, but you wont be able to get any fluky pins on me this Sunday because Mr McMahon has granted me the choice of stipulation....and I choose a submission match.
Commentator : No one has ever made Nigel tap out, my god its an up hill challenge already for Thatcher.
Nigel McGuinness : See you Sunday mate a.......and oh, bring my title and have it all shined up for me yeah?
Nigel and Thatcher stare each other down as we cut to commercial.We are back its announced for the Beyond Chaos PPV that Magnum TA will face Owen Hart in a Memphis Bull Rope Match! We switch to Shane Helms who is receiving medical attention after being beat down by the Hart Family. In walks Shannon Moore to the surprise of Helms
Shane Helms : Where were you Shannon, I needed help out there.
Shannon stares dead at Shane before smiling oddly and replying
Shannon Moore : I’ve been finding myself, your words finally got through to me last week and I don’t want to end up like Barry Horowitz, I want to be a winner! So I’ve been training hard and in the winning mind set, just like you told me to do. I hope your not to hurt, because I asked Mr McMahon for a match against you at Chaos Rising. I wanted to test myself against you, and I want to show you just how you inspired me and Im sure you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Shannon leaves in an enthusiastic hurry as Helms looks confused and still smarting from his beat down earlier
Commentator 1 : Shannon has asked for a match against Shane at Chaos Rising. Whats going on in his head?
Commentator 2 : I don’t know but he looks super pumped. Looks like Helms finally inspired him!We are backstage and we see the Midnight Express talking with a Beyond Chaos Reporter. Bobby and Stan talk about being old school and they both say they will go old school on the Outlaws asses this Sunday. Out of nowhere Billy Gunn and Road Dogg attack the tag champs and they begin brawling. Both teams are clubbing away on each other and the brawl spills into the parking garage.
The Outlaws gain control as Billy Rams Stan Lanes head into the back of a production truck and then helps aids Road Dogg whos battling with Bobby Eaton and they both throw Eaton head first through the passenger window of a near by car, busting Bobby open.
Road Dogg : He aint beautiful no more hahaha.
They begin to lay the boots into Stan Lane now but Road Dogg stops and brings Billys attention to the object besides them.
Commentator : Oh my god, its a dumpster.
Billy laughs when Road Dogg points it out to him and he drags over the dumpster. Billy opens it and he dumps Stan Lanes body into the open trash container and then he and Road Dogg drag the bloodied Bobby Eaton and dump him in as well and close the lid.
Road Dogg : You know what Billy, we should go ’old school’ ourselves and bring this here dumpster and throw it off the Beyond Chaos stage like in olden times huh? , what do you say Billy?
Billy mulls it over and says no. He says we are better than that and you can sense the tone sarcastic in his voice. Billy then spots something in the distance and brings it over.
Commentator : Thats Magnum TAs bull rope from earlier!
Billy Gunn : Lets bring these old timers on one last ride!
Road Dogg grabs the rope and runs off laughing like a school girl while Billy locks the dumpster with the tag champs inside. Road Dogg returns with a car and Billy ties the dumpster to the car using the Bull Rope!!!
Commentator : Oh my god, don’t do it, for the love of god, these guys have families.
Billy and Road Dogg hop in the car and roll down the windows. We can hear banging and the muffled voice of the tag champs from within the dumpster as Billy puts his foot down and drives away at speed. The car speeds off and drags the dumpster with it, with the Midnight Express inside!!!
Commentator : Dear God this isn’t right, their lives are at risk.
The dumpster topples over as the Outlaws car hits a corner and its drags the dumpster along the crowd and sparks fly.
Commentator : Dear God, the Outlaws have gone too far dammit. This is not right!
The outlaws try to drive away out of the arena with the dumpster in tow but as they do the rope snaps and the dumpster slides into a wall. The Outlaws reverse and survey the damage before shouting in the direction at the dumpster.
Road Dogg : See us Outlaws, we are destined to be legends!
The Outlaws speed off and officials rush over to the dumpster and bust it open and tend to the injured tag champs, who are both bloodied and bruised.
Ad Break!A familiar theme plays and the fans erupt as Jeff Jarrett sombrely walks out to a supportive reaction from the crowd. Jeff brings with him an acoustic guitar, his weapon of choice in the past and steps into the ring and acknowledges the support of the Beyond Chaos fans before grabbing a mic. Jeff speaks about the last few weeks about Vince trying to ruin him and make his life a misery. He then talks about his wife Karen leaving with Vince last week and spending the night with McMahon. Jeff says Karen did what she did for Jeff last week and that he was unaware she left with Vince, saying she did it all on her own accord.
Jarrett says Karen hasn’t spoken to Jeff all week and she cant look him in the eye anymore. He says he has no idea what happened with her and McMahon last week, but his imagination is his own worst enemy because hes thinking the worst. He says he feels sick to his stomach at the thought of Vince being with his Wife and says not in a million years would he ever ask her to do that for him. Jarrett tells the crowd the only consolation is that he gets to face Vince 1 on 1 at the PPV and that hes going to beat the hell out of Vince from pillar to post and make him rue the day he walked into Beyond Chaos. Jarrett goes on to explain how hes going to hurt Vince when ‘No Chance...’ hits the PA system and out struts a very happy Vince McMahon and he, and his security team of Abyss and Matt Morgan, stand at the ramp.
Jarrett looks paralysed with rage as Vince smiles down at him from the ramp.
Vince McMahon : Well Jarrett, last week was fun wasn’t it? Well it was fun for me. I went to Space Mountain last week! And let me tell you it was a hell of a ride. I enjoyed it so much, that I went again....and again...and again...and again....and the best part was that at first your wife was cagey and unhappy but by the end she was screaming and begging me for more!
Commentator : is that true or is Vince just winding Jarrett up?
Jarrett breathes in trying to control his anger as he responds.
Jeff Jarrett : Well you can say whatever you want Vince but you will just be adding to the hurting I will be putting on you this Sunday at Chaos Rising and we will see if you beg for more then. The only begging you’ll be doing is begging for mercy.
Vince McMahon : Ah yes, the match next Sunday, the reason your lovely wife threw herself at me in the first place. Well, I must admit, I never thought she’d really go for it but she did and Im a man of my word Jarrett, its me and you next week with the winner taking all the marbles. You finally get me one on one!
The fans cheer at the thought of Jarrett facing Vince, as Vince grabs the clipboard from Matt Morgan.
Vince McMahon : Heres the contract your wife signed last week and she signed it in quite the hurry, she left one field blank. The field she left blank is the stipulation of the match. Ive taken the liberty of filling that in and this Sunday Vince McMahon will Face Jeff Jarrett, with the winner gaining full control of the company in .......a no DQ gauntlet match!
Commentator : What in tarnation!
Commentator : Vince is leaving Jeff with a snow balls chance in hell. Theres no way he can beat those two, one after the other!
Jeff Jarrett : Listen Vince, I’ve nothing to lose now, its all or nothing and it doesn’t matter what kind of odds are stacked against me. This Sunday I’m guaranteeing an acoustic guitar will be put through your miserable skull. .......Hell Why wait......
Jarrett drops the mic and heads out of the ring and up the ramp with his guitar in tow. Abyss and Matt Morgan rush to meet him half way and both men try to grab Jeff but he ducks between the two. Jeff pops up and nails Abyss with the guitar shattering it over his head. Jarrett then ducks a clothesline attempt by Morgan and kicks Morgan in between the legs, crippling him temporarily. With Abyss and Morgan down, Jarrett eyes up Vince.
Commentator : My god, Jarretts set his sights on Vince.
Jarrett slowly walks up the ramp while Vince looks shaken and stunned. Jarrett however takes too much time and Matt Morgan has recovered and clubs him from behind. Morgan is then joined by Abyss, and both men beat Jarrett down much to the relief of Vince. Both men then hoist up Jarrett and choke slam him on the steel ramp with Vince punching the air with delight. Vince then stands over Jarretts carcass and tells him he has no chance in hell.
Commentator : Is this a sign of things to come for Jeff Jarrett?
Vince poses with his security team of Abyss and Matt Morgan as we cut to an ad break.We are back and its time for our final bout of the evening as the former IC champ Nigel McGuinness takes of Current Heavyweight Champion Jake Roberts, in a non title match. The British native is out first and Nigel gets boo’d loudly. Out next is Jake Roberts and the commentators ponder if Jakes head is focused on the match ahead with his mind on finding out what happened to Damien.
Jake Roberts Vs Nigel McGuinness (non title)
After an early back and forth, Nigel capitalises on a mistake by Roberts to gain control and work over the arm. Jake though rallies late on and avoids Nigels London Dungeon submission on numerous occasions. Jake eventually has Nigel down and looks ready to hit a DDT much to the fans approval, but suddenly Shawn Michaels voice can be heard and from the ramp we see Shawn. Shawn is not carrying a bag and doesn’t appear to have Damien with him at all. Shawn walks towards the ring as he addresses Jake.
Shawn Michaels : Jake Im a man of my word and Im out here to bring you face to face with Damien once again.
Commentator : Shawn doesn’t have Damien though, whats Shawn up to?
Jake is enraged by Shawn but Nigel has recovered and nails with a low blow from behind causing a DQ
Winner by dq Jake Roberts
After the Low Blow, Nigel then locks in his London Dungeon. Jake is in agony as Shawn walks to the ring and continues talking.
Shawn Michaels : Dont worry Jake, like I said earlier, Damien is very very comfortable right now.
Shawn steps into the ring as Jake is trapped in McGuinness’s submission staring up at Michaels.
Shawn Michaels : Dont worry Jake, Damien is close by, and your most likely wondering where he is. Maybe hes in the building......... Maybe hes out here in the arena............. maybe hes in the ring Jake?
Commentator : What is Shawn talking about, where and what has he done to Jakes pet snake?
Shawn stares down at Jake and then inches up his jeans to reveal his boots....and their SNAKE SKIN BOOTS

Jerry: Hello and welcome to Monday Night Adrenaline broadcasting live from Dublin, Ireland. We are one week away from the biggest PPV of the year, WrestleCade.
Mikey: Boy it feels good to be back on the Emerald Isle. 6 days away and I’m counting down the days.
Jerry: Dont forget, WrestleCade can be ordered for the incredible price of $19.99, only available to the RAF network. However if you book tonight during the show, you will receive a 20% discount, so book quickly.
Mikey: What a bargain. And of course we get to witness the biggest match of the wrestling calendar year, Macho Man Randy Savage versus the champ Hollywood Hogan inside a steel cage.
year, Macho Man Randy Savage versus the champ Hollywood Hogan inside a steel cage.
Jerry: We have got quite the main event for you tonight. Randy Savage will team up with Lou Thesz to take on the team of Hulk Hogan and King Kong Bundy.
We start off the night with Rick Rude inside the squared circle.Rick Rude: “Hi there, remember me? If you don’t, just go into the kitchen, get your old lady out and show them me and she will tell you who I am. She’ll tell ya that I am the sexist man alive, Ravishing Rick Rude. And as for all you ladies in attendance, I have raised my standards. I now come to town with a pair of size five Calvin Klein’s and a 36 double D. And if you don’t fit the mould, don’t dream of the rude awakening. Now it’s time to get ladies that fit the mould out here because this has to be the ugliest crowd I have ever seen”.
Both Bella’s make their way out separately with Brie getting a pop. the Bella’s start to argue in the middle of the ring until Rude interrupts them.“Ladies, shut the hell up. I told the GM Johnny Laurinaitis that I would offer my assistance to fix this problem between yee. Who else is more capable of dealing with the women than Ravishing Rick Rude? Brie, why did you screw your sister a few weeks back? I wish it was me that was doing the screwing, if you catch my drift!”
Just as Brie Bella goes to respond, The Mega Plowers music hits and they make their way down to the ring. They seem to be getting a lot of attention from the ladies in the audience which angers Rude.Val Venis: “well, I have just had enough of listening to your vanity. If these ladies want to look at the sexist men alive, they should look no further than the Mega Plowers. Face facts Rick, why have you, when they can trade you in for a better younger model in me?”
Rude looks pissed as the crowd pop.
Rick Rude: “Shut up you dogs! Why don’t we sort this the old fashioned way? A posing contest, right here right now between all three of us?”
Buff Bagwell: “You’re on old man. I’m Buff, I’m still the stuff and as you can see, the girls still can’t get enough!”.
Both Bellas exit the ring but remain ringside, although both are blanking each other. The pose down starts with Rude flexing his arms. The crowd don’t give much of a reaction and Bagwell stands in front of him and flexes his arms. The crowd pop big for him as Rude looks pissed. Venis then turns his back to pose towards the other side of the arena. The crowd again pop for him. Suddenly, Nikki Bella throws Rude a chair. Rude hits Bagwell from behind and before Venis can react, he is struck down at the hands of Rude. Rude begins to smile and grabs a mic.Rick Rude: “Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner and still the sexist man alive, Ravishing Rick Rude. Now which one of you ladies want to accompany me to my hotel room for the rude awakening?”
Brie Bella looks disgusted when suddenly Nikki slaps her across the face, knocking Brie to the ground. Nikki links Rick Rude outside the ring as Brie looks on holding her face. Nikki Bella can be heard screaming “I want my title back b###h.” However a familiar theme song plays.
Pedro Morales comes running down to the ring, forcing Rude and Nikki Bella to exit through the crowd. Morales looks irate, as Val Venis make his way to his feet. Morales seems to flip and hits Val Venis with a backbreaker. The crowd look on stunned as Morales locks on the Boston crab on Bagwell. After Bagwell taps out, Morales refuses to break the hold. Officials have to come out and break it up. Morales storms out of the ring and makes his way to the back silently.
Jerry: What the hell Pedro?
Mikey: There’s that famous Morales temper. Too much jokers out here for my liking. Credit to Morales.
Jerry: Morales seems determined to take that United States title of Rick Rude this Sunday at WrestleCade.
Promo of happier times for the Mega Powers.
We now have an interview with Randy Savage.
Sarah Williams: Macho Man, can I have your thoughts?
Randy Savage: The tower of power, too sweet to be sour, I’m funky like a monkey, sky’s the limit and space is the place. I’ll give the devil his dues yeah, Hulk Hogan has got the biggest arms in the world yeah, but these arms here aren’t chop liver. I believe in karma Hogan, and karma comes back on you. There’s no man that can put me down. Oh yeah! Hulk Hogan, you wanna talk about my marriage breaking down? You don’t know anything about the Macho Man or where I’m coming from because its mind boggling to ya, yeah! I’m coming for you Hogan. I know what makes you tick. Better than the best, I’m better than the best. Macho Man, Randy Savage! Hogan, tonight I’m gonna kick your ass, oh yeah!!! And on Sunday, after I hit you with the big elbow drop, I’m gonna pin you, 1,2,3. Oh yeah!
Sarah Williams: Randy, if the opportunity arises to win the match via escape, will you take that route? A win is a win after all even if you have never pinned Hollywood?
Randy Savage just smiles and storms off.
Commercial
When we return from the commercial we have John Laurinaitis speaking from his office.John Laurinaitis: “Evening all. As you all know by now, my name is Mr John Laurinaitis, the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline and the Co-owner of USCW. First things first, I have decided to not press charges against Raf32 after his malicious unprovoked attack on me last week. I thought taking his company on Sunday would be enough punishment. Can you all believe it? We are 6 days away from a new era. The era of Mr Excitement himself, John Laurinaitis. Let’s get down to business. Tonight, there will be a contract signing between Goldberg and Ryback for their match at Wrestlecade which I will preside over. I’m also making a match for the Womens title at WrestleCade. Nikki Bella will face her sister Brie in a family affair. May I wish you all a pleasant evening and have a good show”.
Mikey: Just when I think Mr Laurinaitis can get any better as a human been, he goes and proves me wrong. Raf32 could learn a thing or two from him. I'm excited for this new era. I can say i lived through this best era in professional wrestling's history.
Now we have our first match of the night between the Tag Team Champions, The Twin Towers and The Long Island Broski’s.
In a very even matchup, Ryder eventually knocks the Akeem to the outside. Hawkins and Bossman are the legal men on the inside as Ryder goes under the rope to keep up his offence on Akeem. Hawkins gets the better of the Bossman and eventually hits him with the Taste of Pain. On the outside Akeem gets the better of Ryder and tosses him into the steps. Hawkins makes the pin and is about to get the three count when it is broken up by Akeem. He beats down Hawkins and eventually hits the 747 Splash. Bossman makes the cover and the champions win the matchup.
Jerry: What a great matchup. Can anyone take the gold of the Champs on Sunday?
Mikey: I wouldn’t like to bet against them but ….
The commentary is cut off by a promo on the titantron. Its Cody Hall and Joe Henning somewhere outdoors. Both men are sarcastically clapping the champs.Cody Hall: “Well done Twin Towers. Heck of a win. Oh who am I kidding? You only just beat two jobbers. And The Mega Plowers are probably worse. You have never faced a team like H&H and on Sunday, I guarantee we are taking the gold.”
Joe Henning now comes into the picture holding an American football: “Correct Cody. I also guarantee that I will throw a perfect spiral right now to my receiver Cody Hall. If I wasn’t a wrestler, I’d be the top QB in the NFL.”
Cody Hall runs long down the pitch as Henning gears up to throw. Hall is now 50 yards down the field as Henning throws. It starts off to look perfect but it suddenly drops over 30 yards short of its attended target.
Clearly embarrassed, Henning roars “Cody, you run the wrong route. The sun was in my eyes. Turn off the damn camera”.
We cut back to the Tag Champs in the ring who are besides themselves with laughter.
Jerry: Haha! Wow Mr Imperfect makes me laugh more every week.
Mikey: Shut it you idiot, Hall let Henning down there. Lets hope Joe doesn’t have to do it all by himself on Sunday.
And now it’s time for the contract signing between Ryback and Goldberg Both men make their way out to the ring, which has a table with a chair on each side inside it. Mr Laurinaitis makes his way down with the contract.Mr Laurinaitis: “First things first gentlemen. Once this contract is signed, there can be no physical contact between yee two until the bell rings on Sunday. And secondly I’ve decided that a match of this importance should not be taken any old match. On Sunday, yee two will compete in a Hardcore match. So Goldberg, go ahead and sign first.”
Jerry: Wow, what a stipulation. Goldberg looks a lot happier about that than Ryback.
Goldberg smiling looks for a while at the contract and eventually scribbles his name on it.Ryback: “You idiot Bill. You were never the smartest and that’s why your streak eventually came to an end. But I’m not Bill Goldberg. I’m not stupid. I could kick your ass right now and there nothing you could do about it. On Sunday Goldberg, the only thing that’s getting broken, is your neck”.
Goldberg gets angry and flips the table. He tosses his chair out of the way as he squares up to Ryback. Ryback just laughs and roars “Feed me more, Feed me more”.Ryback: “You know what Bill, I’m gonna sign this contract. I can wait till Sunday to kick your ass.”
Goldberg looks thick as Ryback signs his name. Ryback squares up to Goldberg and gets in his face. Suddenly we see Goldberg smile for the first time. He strikes Ryback with an arsenal of punches and eventually hits the spear. Ryback rolls out of the ring as Laurinaitis looks on in horror. Goldberg grabs the contract and opens the page he supposedly signed on. It’s blank! He signs the contract and grabs a mic.
Goldberg: “Ryback, Your next!”
Ryback is holding his ribs as he points at Goldberg. Goldberg motions for him to re-enter the ring but he declines and makes his way to the back.
Commercial
Message on the titantron: The following is a hype video for the legend that is John Laurinaitis.Raf32 in his best Laurinaitis voice: “My name is John Laurinaitis. I am the biggest douche on Monday Night Adrenaline and perhaps the most boring man in the USCW. I am here to talk to you about being the new Owner of USCW after this Sunday. I can guarantee that I’ll be the best owner, this company as ever seen. I give you my word that I will be exciting and unparalleled in worlds sport entertainment, by botching interviews, looking completely uninterested and generally being the total embarrassment that I am. I can’t even pronounce the products I am promoting. “
Raf32 rips off the wig.
Raf32: “On Sunday I will rightfully take back what’s mine, the USCW. But I didn’t get to the top without having a plan B. And tonight, Laurinaitis, you will be introduced to it.
Jerry: I wonder who he is talking about?
And now its time for our main event. Jimmy Hart makes his way out with Hollywood Hogan and King Kong Bundy!Jimmy Hart with his megaphone: "Will all of you please shut the hell up. Jimmy Hart is trying to speak. I'm probably the greatest leader this kip of a country has ever seen. I hope all of you havent booked a ticket for WrestleCade yet, because after tonight there may be no WrestleCade. Savage and Thesz, for your health I advise you all now to no show. Think smart and walk away from Jimmy Hart!"
Hogan grabs a mic "Macho Man, Lou. Me and Bundy are gonna beat you down brothers. And let me get to Sunday. Randy Savage is going to know his place, his time and his reason to be here in life brother because at WrestleCade, that so called excuse for a man is gonna find out that he is my shadow at high noon. Randy Savage will go down in history as the biggest loser to end his career by shining Hollywood Hogans shoes."
Jimmy Hart raises both mens arms as they are cut off by the entrance of randy Savage and Lou Thesz.
The match is very stop start with Hogan always tagging out every time Savage is the legal man. Hogan and Bundy eventually get an upper hand on Thesz and work beating him down with quick tags. Hogan keeps toying with Savage, letting thesz get close to tagging him but pulling him back at the last minute. Eventually Thesz gets the tag and Savage cleans house. He knocks Bundy over the top rope and floors Hogan with a clothesline. he gets up top and hits the elbow drop. he goes for the pin 1............2...........but its broken up. The ref has been pulled from the ring by Jimmy Hart.
Jerry: God damn that snake, Macho Man nearly got that pin on Hogan.
The ref disqualifies Hogan and Bundy but Hart strikes him with his megaphone. Hogan and Bundy start to beat down on Thesz and Savage with Hart giving instructions. Suddenly we hear a familiar theme.
Jerry: Oh my god!!! Its Rocky Johnson. He is back on USCW!
Mikey: Whats that loser doing back here? Hasn't he had enough of embarrassing himself?
Johnson gets into the ring and floors Hart. He gets some shots in on Bundy allowing Thesz to get back up. Thesz backs Bundy up against the rope and clotheslines him over it. Savage has got the upper hand of Hogan now and is laying into him with a series of punches. eventually Hogan falls to the floor after about the tenth punch and olls out under the rope. Hart gets up and realizes where he is. He pleads for mercy as Hogan and Bundy look on. The trio inside the ring offer them to come back in but they dont oblige. Johnson hits Hart with the Rocky Shuffle as Thesz then hits him with a belly to back suplex. Savage is on the top rope and points at Hogan. Hogan is heard roaring "You good for nothing yellow piece of trash", as Savage hits the elbow drop. Raf32 emerges from the crowd and enters the ring as Johnson lifts Thesz and Savages arms above their heads. Jimmy Hart rolls out of the ring and into Bundys arms as John Laurinaitis comes out on the ramp staring down into the ring. Raf32 points towards the WrestleCade sign as we go off air.
Jerry: Wow, WrestleCade is going to be off the chains. Make sure you all tune in to see who walks out World Heavyweight Champion.
Mikey: And who walks out the Owner of the USCW. What a ride we have been on but it now all leads to one direction, WrestleCade.
Jerry: I'm Jerry Ahern and Hes Mikey Khan. goodnight and god bless!

Martouf Wrestling Federation Friday Fight Night
Theme Song
The lights dim and the crowd start to chant “MWF” as a low musical hum plays over the speakers. A figure stands in the middle of the ring, a microphone in hand. The figure brings the microphone to his lips as a green line of light flashes across the ring.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back to the best federation in the country at the moment. We have the best wrestlers, the best crowd and most important the best vision to own this year”
The lights come up and standing in the ring is chairman and owner Mr. K.
“Welcome, to Martouf Wrestling Federation!” he roars over the mic, to a thunderous rawr from the crowdMr. K“Firstly, let me take a minute to talk about the controversy of “New Beginning’s. Firstly, the Tag Team title match. The Young Bucks were taken out before they even had a chance to get to the ring. So, to make up for this we are going to have the MWF Tag Team titles on the line-TONIGHT! It will be the champions Generation Next against The Young Bucks! If Generation Next attack Young Bucks before the match, are disqualified or counted out the will lose the tites! *crowd cheers*
“Secondly, the fatal-fourway for the International title match. From what I saw, there was no controversy to the finish. Ethan Carter III merely took advantage of the situation. However, I can understand the annoyance. So, over the next few weeks EC3 shall face each man in that match starting tonight when he faces Dean Malenko! *More cheers*
Finally, let’s get on to the main event, Harley Race vs Chris Benoit for the MWF Championship. Let me say this, Harley Race’s win, while offical, was...
James King: That’s Harley Race’s Music!
Chris Canido: Why are you focused on that? I want my match against Ethan Carter tonight! He stole my title from me! The women don’t find me as attractive without my belt!
Eoin Shaw: Oh my god will you shut up? Race is about to talk!
The crowd boos as Harely Race appears on the ramp, mic in hand, belt around his waist.Harley Race: “I know you aren’t going to say what I think you are going to say. I won this belt fair and square. I dived off of the top rope and showed Benoit what a diving headbutt really felt like before the referee counted 1...2...3, lifted my hand and handed the belt to the only guy in the company who deserves it and can deal with the pressure!
Simple fact of the matter is Mr. K. that you don’t have anyone as good as me on the roster. You don’t have anyone worthy of being champion apart from me. I proved that when I won the title at “New Beginnings”, I proved it when I beat 7 other guys to this title. Simple put, there is no-one better than me here! I am the MWF World Heavyweight Champion and there is nothing either you, the fans, or anyone in this company can do about it!
They don’t know how to carry themselves as a champion, they don’t understand that being a champion is much more than just wanting it. You have to do anything to get it, you have to do everything to keep it. And that’s what I plan to do. Get used to this *lifts title high* I’m not letting this go any time soon”
Harley Race turns, drops the mic and starts to walk offMr. K.: “Where do you think you are going Mr. Race? I haven’t finished talking yet *crowd cheers*. Firstly, you didn’t beat 7 people. One man didn’t manage to get his chance to compete. That man is Daniel Bryan! *crowd cheers and chants YES*. He should get a chance to prove he is better than you. However, Chris Benoit was screwed at “New Beginnings. So tonight, we will have Daniel Bryan vs Chris Benoit to decide the number one contender for the MWF Championship! *crowd cheers*
And, just in case you are feeling a bit left out, you will have a match tonight too. I’ve been in contact with a former MWF champion and they have agreed to face you tonight to show you that people in the MWF are a lot tougher and better than you think!”
Crowd cheers as Mr. K’s music plays as he stands grinning in the middle of the ring
King: Well what a start we have had to MWF’s Friday Fight Night! Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen, what a night we have planned for you! 4 great matches to come!
Shaw: I think that Harley Race is a great wrestler who deserves not to be disrespected by our chairman and owner! He has already proved he is the best wrestler here, he shouldn’t have to prove it again!
King: Who cares? He should have to work to keep his title like everyone else!. All of the rest of these men on this roster are great!
Canido: Who cares about all of that? What we should be really focusing on here is the fact you are both sitting beside the next International Champion!
Shaw & King: Will you ever shut up?
Ad Break 1Female Ring Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, this match is set for one-fall and is for the MWF Tag Team Championships! First team to get pinfall or submission will win and become the new MWF Tag Team Champions!
King: Well here comes one of the crowd favourites, The Young B making their way down to the ring. They look all set and ready for this match!
Shaw: The crowd may be behind them but Jack Evans and Roderick Strong will prove far too much for them in this match
Candido: All that matters right now is me winning the title. That’s what the crowd came to see, nothing else! Although that lovely ring announcer may be the first one to have a go on the new champion if you catch my drift!
King: I think you will need something even shinier than a belt to get her!
King: And here comes Generation Next. They weren’t well liked when they were here last time and now they are back the crowd don’t forget too easily!
Shaw: It doesn’t matter too much to be honest, all that matters is that Generation Next are the best team here!
Matt and Roderick start in the ring, locking up before Strong kicks Matt with a cheap shot to the gut, not wanting to have a lock-up battle. He immediately goes to work on Matt, striking him with lefts and rights before whipping him into the corner. He follows him in, clotheslining Matt in the corner before stomping on him in the corner. The referee comes in and begins his 5 count, Strong stopping once the referee hits 4. He backs away, allowing Matt to use the ropes to pull himself up before Strong delivers a massive chop to his chest before grabbing him in a head lock and bringing him over to Evans.
Evans tags in and they both suplex Matt. Evans comes off the ropes and leg drops Matt. Evans goes to pick up Matt but he rolls Evans up. The referee hits the mat 1...2 and Evans manages to kick out. The both get up and Matt hits Evans with a dropkick. Both men are down and the referee starts counting to 10. Nick starts clapping as both he and Strong extend their hands for the tag as both Evans and Matt crawl towards each other. Evans tags in Strong right before Matt tags in Nick.
Nick and Strong both run into the ring. Nick hits Strong with a spinning back kick, Strong gets straight back up as Nick runs against the ropes and hits him with a spinning wheel kick before hitting the ropes again as Strong gets up, trying to kick him in the head. Strong catches his leg but Nick hits him with an enzuigiri. Jack Evans comes back into the ring but Matt slides in and hits him with a superkick to the chin. Evans rolls out of the ring. Nick picks up Strong as Matt goes to the top rope. Nick puts him in a piledriver position before Matt flips and they hit Strong with the Meltzer Driver. Nick pins him and the referee starts to count 1...2.. Jack drags the referee out of the ring!
Matt and Nick look at him in annoyance and run to the ropes, bouncing off of them and jumping out at Evans. Evans though has the belt in his hand and smacks Nick in the head with it right before he and Matt hit him. Nick crumples to the floor while Matt hits Evans with the suicide dive. Both men hit the floor as Strong starts to recover. He rolls out of the ring slowly, grabbing Nick’s slumped body before pushing him into the ring. He also picks up the referee and rolls him in. He grabs Nick and hits him with the Strong Breaker before covering him. The referee slowly begins the count 1…..2…...3! Strong rolls off Nick with a massive grin on his face as the bell rings and their music plays.
King: Not again! The Young Bucks got screwed again! This is terrible! Mr. K. has to do something about this surely!
Shaw: What can he do? The referee didn’t see anything, and Strong pinned Nick fair and square. Nothing you can do about it!
Candido: Strong and Evans are great guys, they’ll let me join once I’m the International champion!
King: Well as much as I don’t like it, Generation Next are still the champions!
Ad-Break 2.Female Ring Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match is scheduled for one-fall! Introducing first, from Tampa Florida, weighing in at 212 pounds Dean Malenko!
King: Well here we go, the first of 3 matches Ethan Carter III will have to decide who will face him at “On the Verge” after a somewhat controversial end to the fatal-fourway. His first opponent the great, and extremely under-rated, Dean Malenko
Shaw: Doesn’t matter whoever faces Ethan Carter at “On the Verge”, it’s going to be the same result. EC3 walking out as champion
Candido: What are you talking about Shaw? You are sitting at the same desk as the next International Champion and my first act as champion will be to get a kiss from that gorgeous ring announcer!Female Ring Announcer: And his opponent, from Boca Raton, Florida, weighing in at 225 pounds, he is the MWF International Champion, Ethan Carter III!
King: Well here comes the champion, making his way to the ring. Wait, he has a mic in his handEC3 “Hello you pitiful people. I am Ethan Carter III and I am your International champion. I shouldn’t even be here tonight, I should be at home resting after a gruelling match at “New Beginnings” that I won. I shouldn’t have to face any of these chumps again, I beat them fair and square. Even worse I have to face Candido again, the man I pinned to win the title! Just stay on the announce desk next week you weird man and stay out of my way. As for you Dean, and Okada who I know is in the back listening, you may as well just give up because no-one is taking this title from me”
He drops the mic as he climbs in the ring
Candido: Who the hell does that asshole think he is? I’m going to show that punk who is the better wrestler next week
Shaw: Yeah, and I’ll win the lotto
Malenko and Carter put on a very good match. Carter dominates the opening, keeping Malenko down with dirty tactics, rest holds and wearing down his arms to take away most of his submission ability. Each time Malenko tries to come back into it, Carter regains control of the match. However, about 7 minutes in Malenko is whipped into the ropes and he holds onto them. Carter runs at him, trying to knock him over the top rope but Malenko ducks, pulling the top rope with him and Carter goes tumbling to the outside. Malenko uses this time to recover before rolling out of the ring and working on Carter on the outside. He rolls him back in and begins to dominate the match, working on Carters legs as he does to allow for the submission. Finally Malenko manages to hit him with a double underhook powerbomb before locking in a Texas Cloverleaf. Carter tries to crawl to the rope as he is in agony but Malenko drags him back to the middle of the ring
King: Malenko has him! Carter looks ready to tap out!
Shaw: Referee stop him! He is cheating!
King: How is he cheating?
While King and Shaw argue, Candido removes his headphones and gets up on the apron, distracting the referee right before Carter taps out. He does so as the referee tries to get Candido off the apron. Malenko released the hold and comes over to see what is going on, the referee stopping Malenko from doing anything to Candido. In the mean time, Carter crawls over and rolls Malenko up. The referee sees it and begins to count 1...2...3!
Candido smiles and smacks the female ring’s announcer ass as she announces Carter as the winner, the referee raising his hand as Malenko looks on stunned. He spots Candido and snarls, rolling out of the ring and chasing him backstage
King: That little snake! I didn’t even noticing him leave! He cost Malenko the match and he is after him now!
Shaw: As much as I agree that Candido is a prick, the better man and the champ won! That’s all that matters!
Ad-Break 3Female Ring Announcer: This match is scheduled for one-fall and is a special inter-promotion match! Introducing first, from Quitsman, Missouri, weighing in at 245 pounds, he is the MWF World Heavyweight Champion, Harley Race!
King: Well, this is going to be extremely interesting. Harley Race promised he would win this match regardless of what happened, and he would retain his title. Bryan or Benoit will have something to say about that.
Shaw: Yeah, all they will have to say is that they weren’t good enough to beat him and that only one guy deserves to be champion!
A heartbeat fills the arena, loudly over the speakers. The crowd murmur, wondering who is going to be facing Harley Race. All of a sudden, You’re The Best Around starts to play. The crowd starts going absolutely crazy.
King: No, no it can’t be! He can’t be here! Surely he hasn’t come back for a match!
Shaw: If he knows what is good for him he definitely wouldn’t be coming here to face our champion! He couldn’t stand the heat so he left here
The crowd go absolutely insane as Devitt show up on the stage, grinning as he does soFemale Ring Announcer: And his opponent, representing Lucha VaVoom, from Bray, County Wicklow Ireland, weighing in at 190 pounds he is a former MWF World Heavyweight Champion, Prince Devitt!
King: Listen to this crowd! Listen to that ovation! For one night only, Prince Devitt is back and he is here to face our current champion, the man who won the belt that Devitt vacated!
Shaw: NO! HE CAN’T DO THIS! He is contracted to a rival company, what was Mr. K. thinking in bringing him back! Race shouldn’t have to face him at all!
King: Well he does and this is going to be one hell of a match!
The two start in the ring, both trying to get the upper hand as the lock up multiple times, pushing each other into a corner, reversing manoeuvres, throwing each other against the ropes. However, Race gains the upper hand with a cheap kick to the stomach, much to the disgust of the crowd. Race takes control, using dirty tactics to ensure that Devitt can’t get into the match. Every time Devitt builds up a bit of steam, Race takes all the momentum out of him, keeping the match at a slow pace. However, when Race throws Devitt into the ropes he rebounds, ducking the clothesline by Race before hitting him with a meleé kick. Both men are on the ground as the referee counts. Both men make it to their feet as Race launches himself at Devitt, who dodges, letting Race hit the corner before hitting him with a dropkick. Devitt begins to dominate the match, peppering Race with kicks, punches and suplexs, getting a number of nearfalls. He hits Bloody Sunday and goes for the pin. 1...2…. A masked figure attacks Devitt, breaking up the pin. The referee calls for the bell as the masked man continues to attack Devitt as Race slowly gets back to his feet
King: Oh god, what the hell? Who is attacking Devitt? He was just about to win the match for god’s sake!
Shaw: Whoever did that is a hero! Who wants someone from another promotion coming in here and beating our champion!
All of a sudden, Harley Race and the hooded figure start beating on Devitt as he is on the ground. Race tells the hooded figure to hold Devitt as he heads for the top rope. Out runs The Young Bucks, superkicking the hooded figure. Race, realising he is outnumbered, grabs the hooded figure and helps him to the back as The Young Bucks celebrate with their former leader
King: What a moment! We haven’t seen this in over a year, and here it is now! Matt and Nick making sure that Devitt isn’t beaten up too badly! What a moment! After the break we have our main event, a dream match. Chris Benoit will face off against Daniel Bryan to become the number one contender for the MWF title!
Ad-Break 4
As Bryan’s music starts, the whole crowd cheers. He appears on the ramp, nodding as he does, a large smile on his face. He turns sideways and starts jumping to the ring, the crowd chanting YES! YES! YES! as he does.
King: Here we go folks, perhaps the biggest match in MWF history is happening right now! Who would have thought we would ever see two of the most technically brilliant wrestlers in history battling it out! And it’s happening here, at MWF Friday Night Fights!
Shaw: As much as I don’t think either of these guys can be the World Heavyweight Champion, or can carry this company like Harley Race can, I do believe this is going to be an absolutely amazing match!
Out comes Benoit to cheers, almost at the same level as Bryan as he makes his way to the ring, loosening out his muscles as he does
King: Well here comes the man that should be the MWF champion, he was screwed by Race at “New Beginnings” and he has a chance here to go to “On The Verge” and beat Race for the title. But he has to win here first!
Shaw: Come off it! Race is the only man that should hold that belt, neither of these two are even fit to tie his shoe-laces!Female Ring Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen, this is the main event of the evening. The following match is set for one-fall and it is to decide the number one contender for the MWF World Heavyweight Championship!
Introducing first, from Aberdeen, Washington, weighing in at 210 pounds, Daniel Bryan! *the crowd cheers, chanting YES for a while*. And his opponent, from Edmonton, Alberta Canada, weighing in at 220 pounds, Chris Benoit! *crowd cheers again*
The referee looks at both men, getting ready to ring the bell before Bryan steps forward, extending his hand. Benoit looks at it, then at Bryan before extending his own hand, clasping his. They both shake and the crowd roars their appreciation. Both men move back to their corners and the referee calls for the bell. Both men lock up and exchange reversals. The match goes very back and forth for 20 minutes, neither man able to gain the upper hand for an extended period of time, both men hitting each other with everything they have got, both men getting near-falls.
Eventually, Benoit manages to get Bryan from behind, hitting him with the three German suplexes. He heads to the top rope and nails Bryan with the diving head-butt. He goes for the pin 1...2… Bryan just gets his shoulder up. Benoit looks up at the ref in bewilderment. He immediately goes back to the top rope to try the same thing again. This time, Bryan moves out of the way, grabbing one of Benoits hands and pushing it between his legs before applying the Yes Lock. Benoit squirms, hand out, looking like he is going to tap, constantly trying to get to the ropes. He eventually does and Bryan releases, amazed Benoit didn’t tap. Benoit crawls back to the middle of the ring. Bryan tries to pick him up but Benoit counters, forcing Bryan down before locking in his submission move, the Crippler Crossface. Bryan now struggles, trying to get to the rope while yelling in agony and trying not to tap. He too makes it to the ropes. Benoit lets go of the hold and picks him up, trying to German suplex. Bryan counters, running to the corner. Benoit turns on to be met by a rebounding Bryan’s Knee Plus. Bryan goes for the cover 1...2...3!!!
King: HE’S DONE IT! HE’S DONE IT! DANIEL BRYAN IS GOING TO “ON THE VERGE”!
Shaw: Will you calm down you idiot? Yes, he won in a great match, but losing was the real winning here! The loser doesn’t have to get destroyed and humiliated by Race at “On The Verge”
King: Come off it, you know Bryan is good enough to beat Race!
Bryan is celebrating on the tope rope, his fingers and arms moving up and down, leading the crowd in a yes chant. He hops down as Benoit stirs, getting to his feet. He looks annoyed and disappointed, and he looks at Bryan. He holds the back of his head with one hand and holds out the other to Bryan. Bryan looks at it, smiles and shakes it. Benoit grabs it before he can pull away, pulling him towards him, looking at him sternly. He nods his head a few times and leans in, whispering something into Bryan’s ear before raising his hand as the show goes off the air.0 -
Welcome to BWA Raw!
Live from Chicago
The show opens with Jerry "The King" Lawler standing in the middle of the ring, at his feet is a brown sack.
Lawler: ""Last monday night was a big night here in the BWA, the first matches for Wrestlepalooza V were announced, The undefeated submission machine Samoa Joe mad his debut, The Wrestling Observer's Best Box Office Draw Rhonda Rousey was here on Raw and The BWA signed a massive cross promotional deal with the UFC!"
The Chicago crowd start chanting "CM Punk, CM Punk.."
Lawler: "Ahh yes the elephant in the room, CM Punk... Last week a BWA superstar attacked the non BWA Punk and almost put our UFC deal in doubt (The crowd booo). This man thinks of himself as being some sort of god, he thinks he can do what he likes and get away with doing whatever he likes but oh no not in my house! (The crowd cheer)
I had a lot of things suggested to me for how to handle Mr Nakamura but i've settled on a three pronged approach. First thing is that he will see action later tonight against a man who has a point to prove, the second thing well thats a little surprise I have in store for him after that match and trust me Chicago you will love it but for now I want to concentrate on the final thing I will do to him and that is strip him of the BWA Hardcore title! This should come as no surprise to anyone who watched last weeks show but honestly this has been a long time coming.
Last year at BWA Judgement day Terry Funk and Bruiser Brody fought him for this belt and since then similar greats have desired the belt and yet the champion has always treated the belt as below him. Even back during his days as a member of the Aces of the Universe, The King of Strong Style always looked down on this belt (he holds up the brown sack). He thought that the number one promotion in the worlds secondary title should not be a hardcore title and... as much as I hate to say this... I honestly agree with the man. Which is why I want to introduce to you the new belt that will replace the hardcore title... The BWA Intercontinental championship!he reveals this belt from within the bag
And who you ask will be able to see to it that this championship is treated as the prestigious title that it is, well how about a man that says it represents more prestige than the world championship... Pat Patterson!
Patterson comes out and actually looks to be getting a little emotional looking at the Inter-continental title, no doubt the great ovation he got from the audience here in Chicago helped too. He goes to thank Lawler for once again allowing him to wear the IC title with pride but Lawler has to stop him there apologizing if he gave him the wrong idea and saying that Patterson is actually one of two men who will compete at WrestlePalooza V for the honor of wearing that championship belt. The other man Lawler says will be none other than the legendary...Gorgeous George!
Patterson looks stunned as his Wrestlepalooza opponent makes his way out to the ring. However when he arrives in the ring Patterson actually looks happy and taking the microphone addresses George and everyone in attendance. He says how he always looked up to Gorgeous George and he was inspired by him as a young wrestler. Everything he did left a young impressionable Patterson in awe from the resplendent capes he wore to his ring entrance which was a bonified spectacle. Patterson said the bravado and showmanship he showed was unheard of at the time and he couldn't help but laugh at how he antagonized the fans. Pat finishes up by saying that it will be a true honor to go toe to toe with him at Wrestlepalooza and then reaches out to shake his PPV opponents hand.
George looks at him in disgust before swatting away his hand and saying, "god you really are one hell of a fag!"
Patterson jaw dropped. They say never meet your hero and well it just got worse and worse the more George spoke, he called Pat "gods abomination" and said that he will happily smack some sense into him as he takes the Intercontinental title. Patterson looked like he was about to lose his cool but Gorgeous George did not relent and mocks Pat in front of the sold out crowd by asking what does one call a gay french canadian (just like Pat) bread... a A f*guette!
thats it Pat snaps and the two begin to brawl around the ring. Lawler simply slides out of the ring and heads to the back as the fighting intensifies but it is eventually broken up by the as ever busy BWA security team.
#JD: Before the show started Lawler told me he wanted to try and top last week here tonight and I was wondering how that was possible, but I must say that was one hell of a start.
#BH: that was great but i've already heard enough yakity yak and I wanna see some wrestling already... someone tell them to start the first match!
Match 1: Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Jerry Brisco w/ Jack Brisco
The champ is in action and gets a great reaction as he comes out to face the younger Brisco brother who has been impressing in 1 on 1matches recently. He almost gets the win too when he locks in the figure four leg lock early on and Tanahashi struggles to get to the ropes. The champion proves his worth though as he slowly gets on top in this match then after a Sling Blade takedown he goes up top and hits his High Fly Flow Frog splash for the win.
Winner: Tanahashi
After the match Jack Brisco consoles his brother before the champ comes over and shakes his hand. The announcers talk about how these men are true class acts who define the word honor.Mitsuharu Misawa barges into the GMs office and confronts Jerry Lawler saying he will go over his head as Lawler didn't answer any of their questions about the attacks on Inoki, Samoa Joe's constant interference and why they won't be getting another tag title shot during his long ass Raw intro. Lawler though is dismissive and tells Misawa to get out to the ring cos he has a match starting next.
Mitsuharu Misawa and Kenta Kobashi vs Abdullah The Butcher, The Sheik & Big Van Vader
The frustration is clear to see on Misawa & Kobashi's faces as this match is announced as a handicap match and the combatants announced. Even with a man advantage their opponents can't be trusted to play fair though and they don't. from eye pokes to low blows they try it all but things really break down when despite it all Misawa and Kobashi actually start to get on top in the match. No way they are having that so they have to stoop lower and much to the amazement of the crowd The Shiek actually throws a fireball at Misawa. The announcers note that he has actually done this many times before in matches but still its a shocking first in the BWA and when the ref sees it he immediately calls for a disqualification.
Winner via Fireball related DQ Misawa & Kobashi
Although the rules were not exactly being followed at least in the confines of a match it was usually 1on1 in the ring. Once it was over a 3 on 2 assault started and it really was too much for them that is until Antonio Inoki came charging down the ramp and joined the action. Unfortunately for him by the time he arrived on the scene his compatriots had already sustained quite a beating and he seemed to join a losing fight and Vader in particular took advantage to target him. Moments later though the cavalry arrived in the form of the champ, Hiroshi Tanahashi. The heels quickly exited the ring and scattered while the new Aces of the Universe were united in the ring and after being helped to their feet all 4 stood tall.Antonio Inoki: Lawler, Lawler! listen to me Lawler! these 3 men by my side are the most honorable and respectful men I have ever met. You have sent people to interfere in their matches and attack them, you put them in handicap matches and you refused them the opportunity to have a fair fight and yet they show you respect. They ask for an explanation, when most would lay you out! Thing is there is a reason they call me a crazy ol b*stard, cos if I think your a son of a b!tch, i'll call you a son of a b!tch and Lawler... your a son of a bitch!
One thing i'll give you credit for though Jerry, you were right I was planning on investing in the BWA and I did plan on getting rid of you. In fact I told the board as much this past week. you will be happy to hear they told me that they were not going to fire you because as they put it we settle our business in the ring here in the BWA. Thats why at Wrestlepalooza you will have a match against the man I want to replace you with and your job will be on the line! (big cheer from the crowd and smiles all round from The Aces of The Universe) oh and that person is...Mitsuharu Misawa!
Misawa looks shocked but after a few seconds when the idea has sank in he looks very pleased at the idea----commercial break
Did you know the BWA has sold out more arenas this year than both WECWF and MNG combined!Jerry Lawler is clearly agitated after Inoki's announcement so when Jack Brisco comes up to him airing his concerns that The Briscos Wrestlepalooza V match against Abdullah The Butcher and The Sheik might end in DQ given their usual antics and saying that he would still prefer to give Misawa and Kobashi another match it's no surprise that he doesn't respond in the nicest of manner.
"Incase you weren't paying attention Misawa already has a match at the PPV against me for gods sake and as far as Kobashi is concerned I had to promise him to Samoa Joe to get him to sign for the BWA so your not getting out of fighting Abdullah and Sheiky and as far as you not wanting your match to end in disqualification... it's now a no DQ match"
Brisco tries to say that isn't what he wanted but the GMs door just gets slammed in his face
Jesse Ventura vs Local MMA fighter
Ventura says that he handpicked this local young fighter due to his reputation as a real tough nut to crack and yet it isn't long until he does just that crack him over the head several times that is.The mixed martial artist puts up a good fight and even takes the body down once but Ventura powers out of the hold he subsequently found himself in and uses his superior strength in the end to make the MMA fighter tap out to his inverted Bearhug.
Winner: Ventura via pinfallVentura: I speak my mind. If it offends some people, well, there's not much I can do about that. But I'm going to be honest. I'm going to continue to speak my mind, and that's who I am. A man who won't fight a woman, why do I need to after all? I just proved I can beat an MMA fighter and he was a man. Men are bigger, men are stronger, men are simply more of a threat and thats science talking not me...Now im not saying woman don't make good soldiers afterall they can bleed for a week and not die ha. But unlike women in the military what goes on between these ropes is not a joke so Ronda sorry to disappoint you but your not going to get your hands on the body at Wrestlepalooza V, maybe you should head on down to that all womens fed i'm sure you will find a more suitable opponent there!
Suddenly and to a great ovation Ronda Rousey appears on the titantron the message she has is a simple oneit's booked, your fighting and your going to get your ass kicked by a girl that is if you have the cohones to show up.this video then immediately plays
We see Shinsuke Nakamura and Seiji Sakaguchi backstage. Sakaguchi is warming up for his match but Nakamura is the one the camera focuses on. He is staring at an old framed picture of himself as part of The Aces of The Universe. Suddenly he bursts into hysterical laughter which last for almost ten eerie seconds until he smashes the frame on the floor and serious as anything turns to look at Sakaguchi and starts screaming at him "私を納得させるには、これに値する, Show me! Convince me you deserve this!"
Samoa Joe vs Seiji Sakaguchi
It looks like Nakamura must have really psyched Sakaguchi up as he shows no fear of the undefeated Samoa Joe in this bout. he delivers several huge chops the affects of which are clearly visible on Joe's chest, a huge atomic drop and a series of big kicks but unfortunately Samoa Joe still has more in the tank and a running Lariat to Sakaguchi steals the momentum for him. What followers is a series of submissions from a single leg Boston crab to a STF and then a crossface which eventually results in the tapout victory.
Winner:Samoa joe
After the match joe grabs Sakaguchi and German suplexes him right through the ropes and out of the ring. He then takes a microphone and addresses the BWA universeJoe: I could have joined any promotion in the world. I was the ROH champion, I went to TNA and went undefeated for 18 months , I went to RCW and kept my undefeated streak going as I took their world title and proved I was the best there. Only one man has defeated me in the past few years and that man is Kenta Kobashi! so why the BWA? why come here? one simple thing... Revenge!
I want to prove im the best in the world and yes there are many promotions with world championships but Jerry Lawler and the BWA offered me what nobody else in WECWF, USCW or any other promotion could offer me and that is Kenta Kobashi in a No.1 contender match! So the match you have all wanted, Joe vs Kobashi 2 is on! and Kobashi I am going to destroy you, then if he still has it I am going to take your friend Hiroshi Tanahashi's BWA title. (Joe then lets out a visceral cry Brock Lesnar would be proud of) Arrrgggh!ROH took down the link to Kobashi vs Joe 1 I had here
JD: Wow blockbuster right there, I know a lot of people don't like Lawler but he booked one hell of a match for Wrestlepalooza!
BH: I gotta agree JD and I am just getting news that we will have the official contract signing for Joe vs Kobashi 2 right here on Raw next week!
JD: Man I can't wait, those two in the ring together, a little taste of Wrestlepalooza, that's don't miss right there
BH: It sure is, but so is this next bout, Mil Mascaras has been saying to anyone who will listen he has a lot to prove after loosing his WHC title shot vs Tanahashi 2 weeks ago and then again in last weeks main event against vs the debuting Samoa Joe
JD: Well he is getting his chance right now against the man who has been the talk of the town this past week Shinsuke NakamuraMain event bout
Shinsuke Nakamura vs Mil Mascaras
Seiji Sakaguchi is at ringside like a cheerleader for Nakamura despite not being afforded the same courtesy earlier. He watches on as Mascaras throws everything in his arsenal at the crazed King of Strong style from surfboard submissions to diving crossbodies but he just can't put him away. It's clear to see that the frustration is beginning to build for Mascaras who has struggled in recent weeks and when Sakaguchi gets involved involved breaking up a pin attempt by putting Nakamuras foot on the bottom rope the masked wrestler loses it and preforms a suicide dives to the outside taking him out but also hurting himself.
When Mascaras was finally able to get back to his feet Nakamura delivers a variation on his Boma Ya Knee strike where he runs along the edge of the ring apron before jumping off it and striking his opponents skull. Mascaras drops, lifeless, like a sack of potatoes. Sakaguchi rolls Mascaras back into the ring while Nakamura starts screaming something in Japanese before he then re-enters the ring and as if it is neccesary (Mascaras does not look like he would kick out anyway) delivers a Death Valley Driver before making the pinfall.
Winner: Shinsuke NakamuraNakamura takes a microphone and while pacing around the ring manically cuts a promo on CM Punk. He calls him a chicken and says even a women from UFC (Rousey) who wasn't challenged answered the call and stepped up but he spits in Punks face and rams his knee into skull and yet there is no sign of Punk. He claims Punk was afraid to bring his wife with him when he attended BWA Raw 2 weeks ago in case she saw what a real man like he looked like, afterall he says everyone remembers what it was like when she went through developmental in the WWE or should he say developmental went through her he wonders. He then says unlike Ronda Rousey Punk is the real B!tch in the UFC while he... he is an immortal (he then poses saluting the heavens as shown)
Just then CM Punk appears from out of the chi-town crowd (who go wild) and enters the ring behind him. Sakaguchi spotting this tries to intercept him but Punk isn't alone as Dan Severn also appears from the crowd and chokes him out. This leaves Nakamura alone in the ring and susceptible for a much deserved GTS which punk delivers.
Having gone through a grueling main event prior to the GTS medical personal immediately whisk Nakamura away as BWA security keep Punk in the ring where he is now joined and flanked by not only Dan "The Beast" Severn but also by "Rowdy" Ronda RouseyPunk grabs a mic and eventually when the "CM Punk" chants die down a little bit speaks
"I thought I would never set foot in a wrestling ring again. I thought I was done with it for good. Even when the UFC signed a cross promotional deal with the premier brand in pro wrestling I wasn't interested. However like with countless other great wrestlers who thought the same thing in the past, a quote from the godfather sums it up best... no not that Godfather...""just when i thought I was out they pull me back in"
Not sure if it's Pacino or Silvio from the Sopranos but Punks impression goes down a storm with the Chicago crowd
"Spit in my face, come to a UFC arena and attack me, then show up in my hometown of Chicago insult my wife and call me a chicken, no a bitch... yep you got my attention Nakamura! but you see haters like you are my favourite, i've built an empire with the bricks they've thrown at me so keep on hating brother. I'll grant you your wish and in 2 weeks at Wrestlepalooza you will get to face off with the straight edge savior but I will further establish my legacy by doing so because oh yes.. I will beat you but... not just you! because you see I'm not returning to a wrestling ring if it isn't in the main event so sorry Jerry (Lawler) I know you wanted to announce it next week but in front of my people here in Chicago im announcing the main event of BWA Wrestlepalooza V live from the Tokyo Dome will be CM Punk vs Shinsuke Nakamura... vs Hiroshi Tanahashi for the World Heavyweight Championship!"

OCW Season Première:
From West Newbury, Mass. A sold out crowd has packed into the arena. Very pumped up crowd making a lot of noise.
Commentator 1: Hello everyone and welcome! OldSchool Championship Wrestling has returned to your screens around the world once again! And boy do we have an epic lineup for you tonight. Brian Pillman will be defending his OCW WHC against the one and only John Cena, in his hometown tonight!
John Cena's music hits and he comes out to a 100% positive reaction. It doesn't stop the 'Cena sucks' chants however. Cena enters the ring and stays silent for a few moments, taking in the atomesphere. He gets a mic.
Cena: Man it feels good to be home!
*Crowd pops
Commentator 2: He can't help but pander can he? Kiss ass!
Commentator 1: Will you stop?!
Cena: Ok, now that the cheap pop is out of the way, it's time to talk business. I am here at OCW because it is the best place to wrestle in the world. And I am here to do what I have done for 10 years now. Be the man. Every night, every match, every opponent, I have proven I am the man and I am here to say for one final time....
THE...CHAMP....IS
Pillman: HEY JOHN!
Pillman appears on the tron, darkened background. The crowd erupts in boos.
Pillman: You want to be the man? Well guess what, you're looking at him! All these guys you've beaten over the years, they don't compare to me. You've never faced a guy like me. A man with no conscience, no inhibitions and no remorse for what I am going to do to you.
Cena: Oh yeah? Well tough guy, why don't you come to this ring and prove it?
Pillman: Haha, oh John, so predictable. No no no, around here I AM THE MAN. I DECIDE WHEN I FIGHT! NOT YOU!
Commentator 1: Man, Pillman looks like he's going to explode. This guy is a lunatic.
Commentator 2: Well, the nerve of John Cena to waltz in here and start barking orders! Why the heck does he have a title match anyway?
Pillman: No no John, this is my game. And i'm going to play it on my terms.
Pillman vanishes off the tron and the screen fades to black.
*Commercial
We return and Michael Elgin is in the ring, mic in hand, pacing back and forth.
Elgin: So, this is OCW. This is the place everyone wants to be. The place where as someone once said, the big boys play. Well I have a problem with this place. You see I was only signed a few days before today. Basically I was picked up at the last minute. I WAS AN AFTERTHOUGHT! Look at some of the losers that were hired before me! They don't compare to me!
Crowd boos.
Elgin: I have a problem with you pieces of trash too! Kiss my ass!
Booing gets louder.
Elgin: I'm not leaving this ring til Moneymaker gets out here and starts showing me the respect I deserve!
Elgin plants a chair in the ring and continues ranting...until
Baron Corbin's music hits.
Corbin storms down to the ring and gets right in Elgin's face. Elgin swings for Corbin but Corbin ducks and levels Elgin with a clothesline. He brings the stunned Elgin to his feet and plants him with End of Days to a big pop from the crowd. Corbin poses in the ring, and we cut to the back. It's Raven, watching on a monitor. He looks impressed.
*Commercial
Back to the ring, M.Moneymaker is standing in the middle of the ring, with a championship belt in hand.
MM: Now, I don't know about all of you, but I for one was a big fan of Cruiserweight wrestling. Remember WcW back in 96, 97? Well, we have a whole bunch of great cruiserweight competitors here at OCW. So i've decided to introduce this brand new championship, the OCW Cruiserweight Title. And I have chosen a man to hold this title. I am confident this man will defend the title with pride and honor. Ladies and gentleman, Billy Kidman!
*Kidman comes to the ring, shakes MM's hand and accepts the title belt. The crowd boos heavily, seemingly unimpressed with Kidman being handed the title. Kidman looks taken back by the reaction.
Kidman: What you have a problem with this? That Cruiserweight division Mr.Moneymaker was going on about? I was the man, I made that division what it was! No one is a better man for this title then me!
*Kota Ibushi and Kenny Omega come out to a big pop. Omega is wearing a Ryu style cosplay outfit.
C2: Look at these two geeks! How dare they interrupt this historic moment!
Ibushi: I have big problem with this. You not earn this title. Fight me and earn it Kidman.
Kidman: Fight you? Who the hell are you compared to me? And look at this loser you have with you. All he's good for is wrestling 9 year old girls!
Omega: Not just wrestling nine year old girls Kidman. Beating nine year old girls. Just like i'll kick your ass.
* All 3 guys get in each others faces and start talking trash. Ultimo Dragon's music hits. He stands on the tron, points at Kidman at makes that motion guys make when they want a title. He turns and leaves.
Kidman takes advantage of the distraction and drops Ibushi with a Superkick. He goes for Omega also but Omega ducks and release German suplexs Kidman damn near half way across the ring! Omega stands tall holding the title belt. He tosses it on top of the prone Kidman and leaves.
*Commercial
We see the tag team title belts at ring side in a display case. A video package is shown of both LoD and Demolition. No video package is shown of the Ascension.
LoD hit the ring to a massive pop. Hawk and Animal come to the ring with a purpose. Suddenly, Konnor and Viktor attack them from behind!
C1: Hey wait a minute! Deplorable tactics from the Ascension!
C2: They're doing what they have to do to gain an advantage, stop your whining!
Hawk gets thrown into the steel steps while Animal is worked on against the barricade, both guys stomping the holy hell out of him. Demolition's music hits and Ax and Smash come out to a pop. They waste no time running down the aisle and before long, all 6 guys are brawling all over the place. The bell hasn't even rung yet. Ax and Konnor start brawling through the crowd, Animal and Viktor brawl at ringside, and Smash and Hawk start fighting in the ring and finally the bell rings.
Smash gains the advantage on Hawk and takes him down with a clothesline, he whips Hawk into the corner and starts stomping away. Animal comes back in and Viktor is right behind him. Fists are flying and LoD gain the advantage, Viktor is dropped with a double spinebuster. Camera cuts to the crowd and Ax and Konnor are still brawling, Ax has been busted wide open. It doesn't slow him down and they make their way back to the ring where the brawl continues. The two legendary teams seem to want to gang up on Ascension, Konnor and Viktor spend several minutes getting brutalized by the legends, however when it comes to looking for a cover, both teams break each others attempts up. Ax and Smash gain the upper hand on LoD and Animal eats a double powerbomb. Demolition make their way to ringside and destroy the announce table, to which the crowd cheers.
C1: This looks bad for Hawk.....
The near lifeless Hawk is at Demolition's mercy, and he too is powerbombed...right through the announce table.
C2: Well, he's dead.
Demolition return to the ring to finish off Ascension, however Konnor and Viktor have a second wind and fight back, Ax is tossed over the top and Smash is taken down by Viktor with an STO. He covers but Animal breaks it up. Ascension double team him next and beat him down to the corner, but Ax has come back into the ring with a steel chair, he nails both guys with the chair. He goes to cover Viktor but Animal again breaks it up at the last second. Smash tries to cover Konnor but again Animal breaks it up!
Demolition are pissed and Animal gets beaten down. They set him up for and deliver a double chokeslam. Just as Animal is about to be covered, Hawk re-enters the ring, swinging a steel chair like a wildman!
C2: How on earth is he standing???
Hawk takes out both guys and the crowd goes crazy. Hawk helps Animal back to his feet and they hoist Smash onto Animal's shoulders.
C1: You know what's coming!
Hawk climbs to the top and delivers the Doomsday Device to a big pop from the crowd. Animal goes to cover but out of nowhere Ascension jump him and throw him over the top rope. Hawk eats another STO from Viktor. Both guys line up in opposite corners...
C2: You know what's coming!
Hawk is mowed down by The Fall of Man, turning him inside and out. Everyone else is down, Konnor makes sure Animal can't get back to make the save and Viktor covers and gets a 3 count!
Winner: The Ascension
C2: Ascension go 1-0 up! I told you these guys had what it took!
C1: What? They stole the damn match!
Ascension stand over their fallen foes, shouting trash talk. Viktor grabs a mic..
V: YOU SEE! We told you so! First you disrespect us, you show these two teams of dinosaurs, but nothing for us? Well fine then! We'll have to make our own highlight videos.
K: And we'll make it with the blood of legends! Like we did tonight. And like we'll do next week in a steel cage!
*Commercial
C1: It's time for the main event ladies and gentlemen, don't go anywhere.
Announcer: This match is scheduled for one fall, and it is for....the OCW World Heavyweight Championship!
Out comes Cena to a big pop, he sprints to the ring in his usual style, throws his shirt to the crowd.
Out comes Pillman, to a chorus of boos. He takes his time and gets right in Cena's face with the title over his head.
Pillman and Cena lock up, Cena using his superior strength and gets Pillman in a side headlock, dropping Pillman to his knees. Pillman with shots to the midsection and an Irish whip, Cena takes him down with a shoulder block. Pillman rolls out of the ring for a few moments, to more boos from the crowd. Pillman the entire time is trash talking and shouting at the fans at ringside.
Cena comes out after Pillman and clotheslines him on the outside. He picks him up and throws him back in the ring. Cena is back on top of Pillman and delivers a Fishermans suplex for a 2 count. Cena Irish whips Pillman, Pillman ducks under a clothesline and delivers a flying crossbody and covers for a 2 count. Pillman prowls around Cena, stomping away and talking trash. He whips Cena into the corner and follows up with a diving dropkick. He again covers for a 2 count. Pillman picks Cena up and looks for a right hand, Cena blocks and delivers some rights of his own. Pillman though, rakes the eyes and gains the advantage again, going behind and delivering a back suplex to Cena.
Pillman keeps the advantage and trash talks to the crowd, who are booing incessantly. Pillman is so busy ranting, Cena is back up and clobbers Pillman right out of his boots. Pillman is back up again and Cena hits the shoulder tackle. He looks for the spinout powerbomb, but Pillman counters into a dropkick. Pillman locks in an arm scissors, Cena struggles to the bottom rope. Pillman starts arguing with the referee, a small shoving match ensues and again Cena takes advantage and this time lands the powerbomb. The five knuckle shuffle follows and Cena covers for a 2 count.
Cena looks for the AA, Pillman slips out and rolls out of the ring. He goes to ringside and demands his title.
C1: Hey where the hell is he going?
C2: Wherever he wants! Are you going to stop him?
Pillman turns to leave, Cena however gets after him and they brawl down the ramp. Cena hits a suplex on Pillman, landing hard on the steel entrance ramp. Cena drags him back into the ring and this time lands the AA, to a huge pop.
1....2......Pillman kicks out!
Cena looks stunned. He goes for another AA, Pillman again slips out and shoves Cena straight into the referee. Pillman doesn't hesistate, he goes right for a steel chair and clocks Cena straight in the head with a stiff shot.
C1: Oh come on! Referee is down and never saw it.
C2: Not cheating unless you get caught!
Pillman covers, the referee crawls over and slowly makes the count. Cena kicks out at 2!
C1: Cena kicked out!
C2: So what else is new?
Pillman irate, slugs the referee and the referee is out cold. Cena grabs Pillman and delivers another AA! But there's no referee. Cena could cover Pillman til 30. Cena looks frustrated and signals for another referee.
Another referee doesn't come however. Who does is Raven. He's flanked by Kanyon, Kidman, Vampiro who all surround Cena and the ring. They enter and engulf Cena, pummeling him. Cena tries to swing his way out but he doesn't last long. Kanyon flattens him with a chair shot just to make a point.
The battered and bloodied Cena, near lifeless is lifted up and Vampiro delivers the Michinoku Driver. Raven screams at Kidman to go up top. Kidman does and lands the Shooting Star.
C1: What the hell is going on here? Why are these guys attacking Cena?
C2: This is Raven's flock fool, the Flock is back together!
C1: But why?
They aren't done with Cena. Cena eats a Kanyon Cutter and then Raven hits the Evenflow DDT, right onto the chair. Finally having had enough, the four men turn and leave. Pillman, who hasn't moved the entire time, seemingly totally unaware of what's happened, struggles across to Cena, and the referee, groggy but conscious, counts the 3.....
Announcer: Your winner...and still OCW Champion....Brian Pillman!
A bloody Pillman clutches the title, laughing, while garbage floods the ring. Pillman is totally disinterested. He shoots a final look at a battered and broken Cena, spits on Cena and leaves.

Fusion Pro WrestlingShow 2: The Final 2
We open up with a recap of last week, and a look at tonights matches.
Havok will be going one on one with Bull Nakona after their heated confrontation.
We also have the semi finals of the Queen of the Ring, with Manami Toyota vs Sasha Banks and Gail Kim vs Trish Stratus.
Lita seemed disappointed after last weeks loss, where is her head at tonight? Sable and Sasha Banks are determined to showcase why Divas are the real stars. What is the medical update on Emma after the attack from Aja Kong? Will we find out who will be challenging The Divas of Doom for the tag titles? All this and more tonight!
Charlotte is out first with her trainer Sara Del Rey to take on a local jobber. Charlotte had a great match with Gail Kim last week, but due to one or two rookie mistakes she found herself at the loosing end.
Match One
Charlotte with Sara Del Rey vs. Local JobberCharlotte is clearly the dominate wrestler in this match. No matter how the jobber tries, Charlotte reverses everything that is thrown at her. She gets the easy 1 2 3 for the win.
Winner: Charlotte via pinfall.
After the match Charlotte is joined by Sara, who is congratulating her on her hard fought victory. Sara hypes up Charlotte as the future of womens wrestling. Suddenly, the music of Victoria and Ivory plays over the pa. Victoria goes to speak.The future? That's what the future is? Good God if that's the case the future looks bleak! Honey, let me spell this out for you: if your last name wasn't Flair, you would still be working in a Burger King right now. Last week you were beaten by one of the best, by a woman who, likes us, had to work to get where we are. You're a joke, and the only way you'll keep getting victories is by beating jobbers like you've done tonight.
Charlotte asks for a mic:There is a reason why I don't put my last name out there, and that's because of jealous bitches like you two. Having such a legendary name against me has forced me to work even harder, because I don't want to tarnish my fathers legacy. That's why I went to NXT to be trained by one of the best women in the world, Sara Del Rey. Last week I made a mistake, but I still brought Gail Kim to her limit, and I shut a lot of people up. The only people still questioning what I have are dinosaurs that should have retired a decade ago.
Ivory snaps the mic away from Victoria:A dinosaur!?!? You show some damn respect for those who came before you! Why don't I show you what a dinosaur can do! Next week, you and me, one on one!
Charlotte:You're on!
Ivory:And hey, bring along your couch again. Let her see another failure of hers come to an end before her eyes, just like her in ring career.
Sara Del Rey simply glares a hole through Ivory and Victorias head. She holds Charlottes arm up again as we go to a break.
Toshiyo Yamada makes her way out for her match. Lita, having lost in Yamada's tag partner Manami Toyota last week due to a roll up, wants to prove to herself that she can hang with the very best tonight. Lita's music hits and she is joined again by AJ Lee, who keeps lifting up Lita's arm and trying to get the crowd more and more behind her idol. Lita is clearly distracted by this behaviour and has to ask AJ to cool it down once or twice.
Match 2
Lita with AJ Lee vs. Toshiyo YamadaThe two have a great back and forth, with neither wrestler giving in to any weakness. AJ Lee on the outside keeps trying to rally the crowd behind Lita, and at one stage gets onto the ring apron to argue with a ref on what she thinks is a slow 2 two count. Lita gets more and more agitated, and eventually snaps, telling AJ to go backstage. Lita turn around and is met with a Northern Lights Bomb for her troubles, with Yamada taking the match.
Lita cannot believe that she is on a losing streak thanks to AJ's distractions. She heads to the back shaking her head, when AJ runs out to comfort her. Lita pushes her aside, screaming at her to leave her alone. We cut to a break as AJ looks like her world has been shattered.
We are joined backstage by Aja Kong, who is unmoved by her vicious attack on Emma last week. Our interviewer asks why she attack Emma.You saw what happened last week? She loses a match to Trish Stratus, and the fans all still cheer for her? They cheer for a joke of a woman, who seems to think that dancing and acting like an idiot is what makes a great wrestler? I have bled too much in that ring to watch wrestling be insulted like that! These people may not see past her act, but I do. And if that bimbo dares show her face in this company again, I'll make sure to finish the job. So Emma, let me make this very clear to you: Stay in that hospital bed, or else the next place you'll be resting is in a shallow grave.
We have our first semi final match, as Gail Kim takes on Trish Stratus. The winner of this match will compete in the main event of Queen of The Ring as we crown our first Fusion Pro Wrestling Womens Champion. Both women walk to the ring determination in their eyes.
Match 3
Gail Kim vs. Trish StratusThis is a great match that goes back and forth. There is no bs throughout the match, it's a straight up clinic with many near falls. At one stage both women dropkick each other for the count, only to both get up at the count of 9. Eventually Gail Kim reverses the Chick Kick into the Flying Dragon for the submission win.
Both women shake each others hands. Gail is clearly ecstatic to reach the finals, and Trish is humble in defeat.
Sable and Sasha Banks are here! They slowly clap after the match with Sasha on the micLadies, ladies, that was great! Wow, what a match eh folks? That match just proved that I have nothing to worry about when I make my way past that Japanese has been Manami Toyota later tonight, and I can rest easy knowing I don't have to worry about how I'm going to win the Queen of the Ring Tournament. Although, to be honest, I don't need this tournament. Nope, as a Diva, I already have sponsorship opportunities filling my inbox without even reaching the finals!
Winning this tournament will just show the world that no one cares about your "womens wrestling", they want the Diva! The Diva puts buts on seats and looks damn good doing it. I mean, look at Sable's body! This woman is one of the sexiest women walking on the earth today. She can win anything just because of her looks, and women like you two are jealous. You look for the cheers of those smark geeks who think wrestling is all about moves. Wrestling is dead, this is the time of the Diva.
Gail Kim has clearly heard enough and grabs a mic of her own.You know Sasha, it's a shame. It's a shame I won't be able to shut you up, because there is no way you are getting past Manami Toyota to face me. Manami is going to wipe the arena floor with your face, and show you why us wrestlers will always stand tall over you divas. I'm not going to waste my time worrying about what you have to say, because my attention is soley on winning The Fusion Pro Wrestling Womens Championship. But my old friend Trish here, well Trish you have some free time on your hands now don't you?
Trish takes the mic:You're damn right I do. Sasha I'm disappointed in you. I watched you in NXT, you were a brilliant wrestler. But since Sable has poisoned your view, you have become a truly horrible woman. But I look at you and I know there is still light at the end of the tunnel, and I hope Manami kicks seven shades of respect into your ass.
But you Sable, you are beyond redemption. You have set things back for every woman who dreamed of being a pro wrestler when you came to the WWE. Before you, women were treated with respect. When I hosted a pro wrestling radio show, I dreamed of wrestling across the world, and you, you came along and changed everything. Suddenly women weren't wrestling, because you would just take your clothes off and think that was successful. It got so bad that I knew the only way I would get noticed was to use my own body to get peoples attention. And I was never more ashamed of myself. I became everything I hated. But I hoped, I hoped it would be a necessary evil in order to change things. And I think it worked. But there is still one thing left for me to do, and that's eliminate you. So Sable, 3 weeks time at Queen of the Ring, you don't have a match, and now I have a thirst to kick some ass, so I'm calling you out!
Sable laughs Trish of mouthing to Sasha "Is she serious?" as both women laugh at Trish.Oh Trish honey, you're on. But be careful what you wish for, because it will be your end.
We have a match for the PPV set folks! Sable vs. Trish Stratus, and I don't think we could possibly have a more heated match! But who will Gail Kim be facing at the PPV? Manami Toyota or Sasha Banks? We'll find out tonight!
Next up is a match that should be a real slobber knocker! This isn't going to pretty, it's Havok vs. Bull Nakona.
Match 4
Bull Nakona vs. HavokThe match doesn't even reach the ring. Havok charges into Bull as she makes her way to the ring. They brawl all over the outside of the ring. It's an incredibly stiff contest, with both women just laying into each other with rights and lefts. Neither women is giving an inch, as they both go to show the other that they are the toughest woman on the planet.....Awesome Kong is here! She comes out and clearly is looking for a fight! She just jumps straight into the brawl and all three women are going at it! Refs and trainers are out straight away to try take control, but noone seems able to control these titans! Eventually everyone is separated and brought out separate arenas entrances.
We come back to The Divas of Doom, Beth Phoenix and Natalya, coming out to the ring. Last week they issued a challenge to the entire roster for Queen of the Ring to crown the very first Fusion Pro Wrestling Womens Tag Team Champions. They explain to the crowd that all week long no one has answered their challenge, so they may as well just be handed those tag team belts.
They are interrupted by the music of Kaitlin who comes out by herself. Without hesitation, Beth and Natalya are both laughing, pointing out that Kaitlin can't challenge them by herself. Kaitlin remains silent and just smiles and points to the entrance way. The music of Mickie James kicks in and The Divas of Doom look stunned! Mickie James comes out and shakes hands with Kaitlin, Mickie has a mic:Last week I got eliminated from the Queen of the Ring tournament, but I still have a fever that can only be cured by gold. So I rung up my good friend Kaitlin here, and she agreed that she has the same love for gold that I have. What can I say, we're magpies! So ladies, we accept your challenge and we will see you at Queen of the Ring!
They raise their arms up and The Divas of Doom glare at them as we go to our final ad break.
It's time for our main event, the second semi final match in the Queen of the Ring tournament. The winner of this match will face Gail Kim to crown our first FPW Womens Champion at the Queen of the Ring PPV.
Match 5
Manami Toyota vs Sasha BanksAs with last week, Manami is joined in her corner by close friend Toshiyo Yamada. Sasha has Sable with her. The crowd is clearly behind Manami here, with the heat against Sasha and Sable being off the charts. Sasha takes her time, pretending to look for a lock up, only to keep walking away with her arms in the air to pose for cameras. Sable calls her over once to help get an eyelash out of her eye. Manami clearly has seen enough and straight away hits Sasha with a hard clothesline that takes her head off! Manami has to be pulled off Sasha by the ref as she lays into Sasha. Manami is livid, and while distracted Sasha is thrown the knuckles again by Sable. Yamada spots this and chases Sable around the ring and eventually to the backstage area. Manami is hit by the knuckles, but kicks out at the two count! Sasha can't believe it, and she really starts laying into Manami. No matter what Sasha throws at her though, Manami keeps fighting back. Eventually Manami takes the win after catching Sasha out on the top rope.
Toshiyo Yamada comes out to celebrate with Manami, when Sasha low blows Toyota and starts beating down on her. Yamada has seen enough and hits Sasha with an insanely stiff dropkick to the face! Sasha starts screaming, as blood comes out of her nose! Yamada has broken Sasha Banks nose! Banks is screaming at Yamada as she runs to the back, telling her that she is dead for ruining her career! Yamada laughs and lifts up Toyotas arm in victory. Gail Kim comes out to the ring and we have a stare down as we finish up the show.Fusion Pro Wrestling

SUPREMACY
A video recap shows Mick Foley's debut in MWA last week where he announced himself as the Commissioner of Supremacy. The backing track stops when Dean Ambrose on the stage is shown. “You really were an inspiration to so many Mick....pushed your body to the limits...crowd loved you...I want Mick to..bleed” We are reminded of Ambrose's vicious assault which left Commissioner Foley a bloody mess and the video ends with Ambrose's sadistic smiling face looking down at Foley.
Petey: "Welcome everybody to another episode of MWA Supremacy, the best wrestling show on the market today."
Dave: "And what a show we have lined up for you tonight. In our main event, a MWA World Heavyweight Championship opportunity at WrestleRama II is up for grabs in a Fatal-4-Way match. As of right now we only know two confirmed participants in that match; Intercontinental Champion Tazz & “The Bigshot” Bobby Lashley."
Petey: "Commissioner Foley has offered KENTA a spot but we haven't had any word from the Japanese star confirming his participation. And our 4th competing wrestler has been kept under wraps by MWA owner Mike Tyson but he promises to be a huge star in the wrestling world. Any hints as to who this man might be Mr Tyson?"
Tyson: "Of course I ain't gonna let this slip Petey but I can say that he is the MVP of this roster..."
Petey: *sarcastically* "Well lets see if anybody at home can crack that enigma.."
The shot cuts to the car park where a limo has just arrived. Bobby Lashley steps out and thanks whoever is inside before walking into the arena.
Snuka: "For 10 long months we've been the MWA Tag Team Champions. We not only beat Owen Hart & the British Bulldog, we drove them out of this company!”
Orndorff: And since then we've beaten anybody who dared to step inside this ring and try to take this.” *Orndorff holds the belt aloft.* “And now we're the only team left standing. And we don't like that.”
Snuka: “You see me & Paul thrive on competition. So we're issuing an open challenge to anybody out back who has never faced us to come out here right now and fight for the MWA Tag Team Championship.”
Zack Sabre Jr & Marty Scurll make their way down to the ring to a mild reaction; many in the crowd not sure of who these two Brits are.
Petey: "Wow I gotta hand it to ya Mr Tyson, this is a hell of a signing. For those of you wondering who these two are you're in for a treat; this is Zack Sabre Jr and “Party” Marty Scurll. They are two of the hottest talents in European wrestling and I'm very pleased to say Mike Tyson has brought them to the MWA."
Tyson: "I'm only interested in hungry talent Petey, and looking at this Zack Sabre guy I gotta assume he's starving."
Sabre: My name is Zack Sabre Jr and this is Marty Scurll. Together we are the Leaders of the New School and we've come to the best damn wrestling show on Earth to become the World Tag Team Champions.
Scurll: You may not know us now but when you're going home tonight we guaran-damn-tee it'll be our names you're talking about.
Snuka & Orndorff hand over the Tag Titles to the referee and both teams shake hands as this match is set to begin.VSMWA TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
Leaders of the New School vs Snuka & Orndorff
This match features some early technical wrestling from Sabre & Scurll but the tag champions soon take control. The Brits stay in the match despite some hard hitting double team moves; a Jimmy Snuka flying crossbody from the top rope combo'd with an Electric Chair drop from Orndorff looked like it was game over for Marty Scurll but he kicked out at 2 and a half.
The longer the match goes on the more offence Sabre & Scurll have as the champions begin to tire. Orndorff fails to keep up with Sabre's technical prowess and gets locked in an Armbar. Mr Wonderful looks like tapping but somehow is able to lift Sabre off the mat before slamming him down to break the hold.
These 4 men have been wrestling for 20 minutes, the previously unknown LotNS have gained the respect of the audience with their impressive mat work, strong kicks & Sabre's uncanny ability to lock in an Armbar, and the fans are now split firmly down the middle. The match reaches its heights when Orndorff is hit with a tornado DDT by Scurll on the outside. Inside the ring Snuka & Sabre are the legal men; Sabre is out maneuvering Superfly but finally gets caught with a near-decapitating clothesline. Snuka stomps on Sabre before slowly climbing up top; he's going for a Superfly Splash. But Sabre gets the knees up, the momentum forces Snuka back into a seated position where he gets caught with a Superkick by Scurll. Sabre grabs Snuka's arm, locks it in and Jimmy Snuka flails his spare arm and legs desperately trying to reach the ropes. Just when it looks like he might make it Sabre wraps his legs around Snuka's head, pulls towards his own body and flips Snuka back into the middle of the ring. Snuka has no choice but to tap out.
Winner: Zack Sabre Jr & Marty Scurll
Petey: "I can't believe it; we have NEW Tag Team Champions!"
Dave: "This is pathetic. A couple of nobodies stroll in and beat the tag team champions like a couple of wieners. Snuka & Orndorff should be sacked on the spot for bringing shame and embarrassment to this company!"
Petey: "Snuka & Orndorff have nothing to be ashamed of; that was an incredible performance from 2 guys destined to be future World Champions. Speaking of which, we've got a special look now at potential World Champion Tazz and how he is getting ready for tonight's Fatal-4-Way main event."Tazz is stretching backstage when he is stopped for an interview. Tazz grabs the mic and walks right up to the camera.
Tazz: "Tonight I prove all of my doubters wrong. I don't care who I have to choke out to get there but I'm going to WrestleRama. I'm going to make Sycho Sid bleed, I'm going to beat him unconscious. I'm going to win the MWA World Heavywei..."
Suddenly Tazz is attacked by Adam Cole. Cole whips Tazz head first into the wall, the wall cracks and so does Tazz's head as blood gushes down his face. Cole spits on Tazz and walks away.
Cameras cut back to the car park where Ken Shamrock has just arrived. Security stop him and say that Mr Shamrock has been suspended by Mike Tyson and they are to refuse him entry. Should Mr Shamrock resist they are authorised to take him into custody. Shamrock flips out but cooperates once additional security staff arrive.vsNaomichi Marufuji vs Sycho SidSid attacks Marufuji as soon as the bell rings. He is punching Marufuji with closed fists and shrugs off the referee when he tries to stop him. When Sid gets off him he picks Marafuji up and throws him over the top rope to the outside. Marufuji's face is visibly cut up and starting to swell already. Sid Powerbombs Marufuji through the announce table and walks away.
Winner: Naomichi Marufuji via Disqualification
After the break we're at ringside were medics are tending to Marufuji and KENTA is helping his partner get to his feet.
Marufuji: “You...compete...win...win World..Championship..”
Cameras cut backstage to Bobby Lashley who is lifting dumbbells.
Lashley: "Hey guys, if you want to film 'The Bigshot' Bobby Lashley you're gonna have to get in tough with my manager cos I don't do this sh*t for free."Ambrose: "All week I've been running what happened last week over and over in my head. The great hardcore legend Mick Foley was here in MWA and we had a lot of fun. But you guys...yeah you..ahh I don't think you enjoyed yourselves as much as I did. And people have been asking me on twitter "how could you do that Dean?" "He's a legend Dean." "He has a family Dean!" Well let me ask you something! DID MICK FOLEY GIVE A DAMN ABOUT HIS FAMILY WHEN HE SAT HIS WIFE AND KIDS AT RINGSIDE FOR ROYAL RUMBLE 1999? Mick Foley doesn't care about his family and neither should you."
Ambrose pauses in soak in the boos from the crowd as images of his family in tears from Beyond The Mat are shown on the big screen
Ambrose: "But the one thing that has got on my nerves more than anything else is the idea that this was an indefensible attack; that somehow you people believe that Mick Foley was an innocent victim in all of this. No no no no no no no no no no no NO! Mick Foley is anything but innocent. Mick Foley is the destroyer of innocence. Mick Foley pushing his body to the limit ruined not only himself but it destroyed the fans perception of wrestling. The night Mick Foley threw himself off that cell and got back up is the night real wrestling died. He dulled the people's senses. Fans became bloodthirsty and going extreme became the hot buzz in the indies. Suddenly you had 150 pound guys jumping off 2nd floor buildings and breaking their backs and did that satisfy your hunger? NO! You got worse...your lust for violence grew...as your lust grew so did the idiotic risks we had to take just to get booked and to feed ourselves for the week. Flaming tables, ropes wrapped in barbedwire, fluorescent light tubes..these matches became the norm. There's even a f*cking “cage of death”. Finally, in a bid to get noticed, some asshole smuggled in a ****ing chainsaw.. Well he took that saw and ran it across my face, slicing my forehead like a piece of chicken! All of that, every scar, every broken bone, every career ended was all Mick Foley's fault. Hundreds of unsigned wrestlers destroyed their bodies to please you thug fans all because of Mick Foley... Their blood is on your hand Foley and now..” Ambrose raises his still bloodied hands to the camera “Now yours is on mine.”
Ken Shamrock walks down through the crowd to the anger of Mike Tyson. Tyson shouts at security to remove Shamrock from the building but when they approach him Ken takes out a ticket from his pocket. The ticket appears to have blood on it but security confirm it is legit and must allow him to take his ringside seat.
Dave: "Did Ken Shamrock beat up a fan for that seat?"
Tyson: "I don't know, I don't care. But if Shamrock tries anything during this match I'm gon knock that sumbitch out."VSVSVSNumber 1 Contender's Fatal-4-Way Match
Tazz vs Bobby Lashley vs KENTA vs MVP
The match begins with all 4 men brawling in the middle of the ring but things quickly break up into two pairs – KENTA fighting MVP & Lashley fighting Tazz. Lashley & Tazz spill to the outside and KENTA takes the upper hand with some vicious kicks. Lashley gets back in the ring and briefly works together with MVP to take out KENTA but this alliance is broken when MVP attempts a schoolboy pin on Lashley. The match continues with all 4 men trading places in the ring. Key spots include KENTA diving over the rope taking out all 3 men on the outside & hitting a series of stiff kicks to Tazz; Lashley hitting a Dominator on KENTA but KENTA is rolls & falls to the outside before a pinfall; Tazz getting MVP in a Tazzmission but KENTA hitting a double foot stomp off the top rope to break the hold & MVP Superplexing KENTA but immediately being Tazzplexed. Tazz goes for the pin but is pulled to the outside by Lashley.
Lashley & Tazz brawl on the outside and eventually Lashley spears Tazz through the barricade into the timekeeper's area. He drags Tazz over to the ring when Ken Shamrock gets to his feet. Security tells Shamrock to sit down but Lashley sees him and walks over. The two men shout obscenities at each other until Shamrock throws a right hook at Lashley's head. Lashley retaliates and the two are soon rushed by security and they become embroiled in the brawl. In the scuffle Lashley is half dragged/half climbs over the barricade knocking over two security men in the process. The brawl moves further into the crowd with a couple more security men falling to the ground until finally there is only one security man left standing between them. Both men punch him before attacking each other; Lashley takes Shamrock to the ground and both men trade blows. Meanwhile in the ring Kenta & MVP are back on their feet.
MVP has KENTA set up for Playmaker but KENTA counters it into a lift, but MVP powers his way back down. He runs under KENTA's arm, off the ropes and goes for a Boot but KENTA avoids it and lifts an off balance MVP onto his shoulders and hits the Go To Sleep. He covers MVP; 1.....2..Tazz crawls back into the ring..3. KENTA is going to WrestleRama!
Winner: KENTA
The show goes off the air with KENTA on his knees and pointing to the roof, MVP hasn't moved, Tazz is in a lot of pain in the corner and up in the crowd Lashley & Shamrock have been separated by what looks like every member of security in the building.0 -

Previously on Monday Night Grappling:- Stone Cold vowed revenge on Rikishi, Bischoff and Dynamite King and, with help from J.R., and a knight's costume, he managed to leave Rikishi laying at the end of the night.
- Bischoff, however, had the last laugh and fired Jim Ross, having earlier fired Davey Boy on Dynamite King's orders.
- Saraya Knight turned on her daughter Paige and told her she would take her daughter's Women's Title at Grapplemania.
Elsewhere, Nick Bockwinkel saved Bayley from Rikishi & Kim, whilst Tyler Breeze revealed Kerry Von Erich's secret - that his right foot had been amputated after a car accident - leading Kerry to walk off embarrassed and ashamed.
The opening shot is G.M. Eric Bischoff’s office. Bischoff is there talking with Marty Jones when Dynamite King enters. Marty bows his head as Dynamite passes.
Bischoff reveals that Kim Kardashian told him Rikishi is sulking about being attacked by Austin last week – he felt Dynamite King and Marty could have done more to help. Dynamite threatens to slap him around but Bischoff cautions against it.
We further learn Marty Jones has been made leader of the Kingsguard and is in charge of security tonight. Bischoff says since they’re in Oklahoma tonight J.R. will be allowed give a farewell address. Dynamite says he didn’t think Bischoff was sentimental; Bischoff says he’s not – J.R. could prove a useful bargaining chip. Dynamite calls Eric an ‘evil bastid’ and says that’s why he likes him as the scene ends.
The shows opening theme plays and fireworks and pyro go off from Oklahoma City, Oklahoma.Commentator #1: Welcome ladies and gentlemen to our last show, our last stop, on the road to Grapplemania.
It’s been announced that tonight the Von Erichs will have a rematch from last week against the Brainbusters and Tyler Breeze which, if they win, will secure them a tag team title bout at the PPV.
Also, Saraya Knight, number one contender to the Women’s Title, will take on her daughter's good friend, Bayley.
Plus, as we've just learned, Eric Bischoff has announced Jim Ross, fired last week, will be able to give a 'final farewell address' to the fans live tonight in his home state of Oklahoma. All this and more on the go-home show for Grapplemania!
Commentator #2: I can't wait for Grapplemania! I kind of miss Ross, though. But hey, I'll get over it!
***Rey Mysterio segment***
Rey Mysterio entered to a loud pop; he wore a solemn expression. In his hand he was holding Sin Cara’s mask.***Flashback*** Two weeks ago Rey found Sin Cara’s mask in the locker room.Rey: Sin Cara, mi amigo. Mi compadre. I know things have been strained between us. You’ve been giving me the cold shoulder; you’ve cost me a chance in the King of the Ring tournament; you’ve put your hands on me. I just want to know why, esse? Why, man? What have I done to deserve all this? I respect you as a friend, as a warrior of the ring. Sin Cara…please talk to me, man.
Last week I saw the video talking about how light will come out of darkness - what did it mean, amigo? Please tell me what's going on with us, bro.
There is no response. The fans chant 619.
Rey: Sin Cara, please.
‘SIN CARA IS DEAD, HOMIE!’ says a deep voice.
Fans begin standing and a rumble goes through the crowd as Konnan walks out.
Konnan: Ola, Rey.
Fans chant for Konnan as Rey looks on in shock. Konnan enters the ring and he has a clipboard in his hand.
Konnan: Surprised to see me? I thought you would be. Hell Rey, you’re probably struggling to remember what I look like. After all, you barely kept in contact with me once the WWE came calling. All those years of friendship we had. I looked upon you as a brother. I looked upon you as my family. Mi raza. But you proved you’re not a very good friend, Rey. You never gave a damn about me once you made it and became a World Champion. But what could I do about it? You were gone.
But then you go and show up in Monday Night Grappling! (he laughs)
And seeing as me and Eric Bischoff go back a long way, and seeing as I’ve a history with Monday Night Grapping from a few years ago (fans cheer), I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to be here, Rey. Not when there’s a chance for revenge, a chance for a major payday, and a chance to see the lucha fight of the century.
Rey: You’re back to face me, is that it? Listen Konnan, I admit I didn’t keep in touch but that happens in life, man. People drift apart. It doesn’t mean you have bad feelings. It’s just how it goes. It’s just-
Konnan: Shut up. No more excuses, puta.
The Hispanic fans in the crowd cheer while Rey stares a hole through Konnan.
Rey: You wanna fight me, man? Fine, Konnan. Let’s go. But don’t kid yourself that this is the lucha fight of the century because I know I got your number, burro, and it’s a 619!
The fans pop as Konnan laughs.
Konnan: You don’t get it, homes. I’m not back to face you. I am back to act as a representative for someone you know very well. Someone who General Manager Bischoff has agreed can face you at Grapplemania, if you have got the guts. A dream match that lucha fans worldwide have long talked about. I think you know who I mean…you’ve got his mask in your hand right now.
The fans start cheering as Rey shakes his head.
Konnan: Oh yeah, Rey. But realise, your match would not be against Sin Cara. Like I said, Sin Cara is dead. Sin Cara is a WWE invention that held back the genius that I represent. Because the man I represent is not called Sin Cara. (He points up the ramp) The man I represent is…Mistico!Mistico appears in his old attire and with his old entrance theme ‘Ameno’, He stands next to Konnan and takes the mic.
Mistico: Hello, Rey. Are you surprised I speaking English? Well my English sno’ so good but Konnan he teach me. And Konnan say to me how you care only about you, and no Mistico.
Mistico hands back the mic.
Konnan: That’s right, Rey. I’ve been setting Mistico straight on what a lousy friend you are. How you obviously politicked your way into the King of the Ring tournament while Mistico was left out; how you put selfish gain over friendship like always; how you never really had Mistico’s back. And most importantly of all – how there can only be one true lucha star in this company.
And it goes back to WWE, doesn't it Rey? All those people who bashed Mistico for not adapting to the WWE style, for not learning the language...did you stick up for him throughout all that, Rey? Hell no! You wanted Mistico out of the picture because you were jealous of him, were't you? You knew he had surpassed you! Tell ‘em what you want at Grapplemania, Mistico.
Mistico: I want you, Rey. One on One. My mask, your mask. At Grapplemania!
Konnan: That’s right, Rey! A mask vs mask match. There can be only one masked superstar in Monday Night Grappling! But we want this match in true lucha style, so let’s make it a 2 out of 3 falls match. (He holds up the clipboard) This is the contract right here. Mistico has already signed it. The question is…do you have the cojones, Rey?
The fans are cheering while Rey holds his hands on his head.
Rey: Don’t ask this of me please. Sin Cara…Mistico….Luis! Don’t you see what’s happening, bro? Konnan is using you to get to me. I’ve always respected you; I’ve tried to help you. Hell brother…I love you.
Konnan shakes his head and whispers something in Mistico’s ear. Mistico steps forward and points to the Sin Cara mask in Rey’s hand.
Mistico: Sin Cara esta muerto! You have my mask, Rey, but Grapplemania…I want yours!
The fans cheer but Rey seems reluctant. Rey doesn’t want to fight him; he has tears in his eyes.
Rey: I fought a friend before. His name was Eddie Guerrero. I loved him and always will. Please don’t make me fight a friend again, Mistico. Not with all of this on the line. Please, mi amigo. It’s too much.
Mistico then slaps Rey hard across the face - so hard he knocks him to his knees.
Mistico: Tu no eres amigo mio.
The fans boo and begin to chant ‘619’. Rey on bended knee stays motionless for a long time. He raises his head and looks out to the fans, his eyes shining with water. They chant for him; louder now. Rey then lowers his head and nods. He reaches up and takes the pen and clipboard from Konnan. He signs the contract.
Konnan: The match is made! The lucha match of the century! Mysterio v Mistico! Mask vs mask….!
Konnan continues to hype the match as Sin Cara pumps his fists; but Rey doesn't want to hear it and leaves the ring. He walks up the aisle with his head bowed low. He stops at the top of the ramp and looks back.
He shakes his head and drops the Sin Cara mask to the floor, and can be seen dropping a tear with it before he turns away.***commercial break***
***Rikishi interview***
Rikishi is standing outside of the women’s toilets holding Kim’s purse. He doesn’t look too happy. An interviewer approaches.Interviewer: Rikishi, if I could have a word. There have been reports that you weren’t happy about what happened to you last week and that you felt Dynamite King and Marty Jones could have gone to your aid when Austin struck. Can you confirm or deny these rumours?
Rikishi goes to speak when a rectal blast of wind comes from the door behind him. He shakes his head and continues.
Rikishi: Yeah it’s true; I was upset. A lot of people seem to have forgotten that Dynamite King won that King of the Ring tournament and the right to face Stone Cold thanks to assistance from me. But where was the King when I needed him?
Interviewer: That may be so but you did align yourself with them and you did-
Rikishi: I did it for the money, yes. Have I made mistakes? Yes. But as I tried to explain to Davey Boy last week, my family have medical bills and I have to stand up and be counted. If a man steals a loaf of bread to feed his starving family, is that wrong? I never wanted to frame Nick Bockwinkel as Austin’s attacker. I never wanted to go after Bayley. I’m just following orders.
The toilet door swings open and out steps Kim Kardashian as the interviewer gags and holds his shirt up to his nose.
Rikishi: And they say I stink.
Kim: Are you still bitching about last week? God! Get over it. You’re almost as stroppy as my husband. Can I count on you tonight if Bockwinkel or that bitch cause me any problems?
Rikishi: I owe Bockwinkel after what he did to me last week so…yes.
Kim: Good. Then quit f*cking brooding before I have to slap the sad off your face. Gimme my purse. I want to go and get a cappuccino so let’s go. Now!
Rikishi hesitates.
Kim: Let’s go, bitch tits! MOVE IT!
Rikishi rubs his brow and reluctantly follows Kim as the segment ends.
***Elsewhere*** G.M. Eric Bischoff’s office
Saraya is there and thanks Bischoff for making the match against Paige last week. Kim enters with a cappucino and informs Eric that Saraya has been helping her prepare for her in-ring debut and has been a much better help than bitch tits (Rikishi). Kim asks about Paige and Saraya says she doesn't expect to see Paige until the PPV. She says Paige hasn't spoken to anyone in the family since the events of last week.
At that point tag team champs Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard enter demanding to know why Kevin and David Von Erich have a chance tonight to earn a tag title match at Grapplemania? They say they’re not afraid of them, just that they think the Von Erichs are unworthy of the opportunity.
Bischoff tells them to relax - Kerry Von Erich has gone off the radar since Breeze embarrassed him last week and not even Kerry’s brothers know where he is. Bischoff says with Breeze on the Brainbusters’s side and no Kerry around, David and Kevin don’t stand much chance.
Satisfied, the Brainbusters nod and shake Bischoff’s hand as the scene ends.
(Handicap) Match - Kevin & David Von Erich vs The Brainbusters & Tyler Breeze
(The Von Erichs must win to earn a tag title shot against the Brainbusters at the PPV)
Kevin and David Von Erich came out first. Arn and Tully were out next, followed by Tyler Breeze (and his glass mask) who was last.Breeze: Do my eyes deceive me or is history repeating itself? On the first show of the new season Kerry no-showed rather than face me in the ring, and it seems he has done it again. He also couldn’t wait to avoid facing me last week. I tested him last week to see if he was a man of courage and he showed the world he was a coward.
Commentator #1: What a load of bull. Breeze had Kerry taken out on the first show and last week he pressured Kerry out of the match! It wasn’t a ‘test of courage’. Gimme a break.
Commentator #2: Oh yeah, well where is Kerry tonight, smart guy? Do you see him?
Commentator #1: …..
Breeze: But I believe in second chances so let’s find out if he has developed a backbone in the past seven days. Where are you, Kerry? If you are a man, show yourself!
The camera pans up the aisle as the fans chant ‘Kerry, Kerry.’ There is no sign of Kerry.
Breeze: I rest my case. At Grapplemania, the Legends Title will once again have a worthy holder in Tyler Breeze because I have shown the world that Kerry is a disgrace.
Tyler enters the ring and addresses Kevin and David Von Erich.
Breeze: Give your brother this message from me when you see him: tell him his real disability is not his lack of a right foot, but his lack of any testicles!
With that Kevin and David have heard enough and begin laying into Breeze with rights and lefts as Arn and Tully join the melee. The ref struggles to contain the brawl.
Commentator #1: Despicable remarks from Tyler Breeze!
The match follows a similar pattern to last week: the underdog Von Erichs enjoy some success but the heels with the numerical advantage dominate most of the match.
Arn and Tully successfully work over Kevin and several times thwart the hot tag to David as the announcers praise the skills of the tag champs. Tyler meanwhile chooses his tags very carefully, entering the ring when Kevin is noticeably hurt and taking selfies of himself standing over the hurt Von Erich.
The finish of the match sees Breeze’s vanity get him in trouble. As he stands over Kevin looking to take another photo, Kevin kicks the phone out of Breeze’s hand and it slides out of the ring. To the Brainbusters’s annoyance, Breeze goes after the phone and that allows Kevin to get the hot tag as David comes in and begins knocking down all three opponents. During this, Breeze goes for a spinning kick and takes out the referee.
With the ref down, Breeze goes for a steel chair and, unlike last week, there is no one to stop him…
…or so Breeze thinks.Commentator #2: Wait a minute! He’s here! Kerry is here! Breeze you better watch out, kid!
Commentator #1: Oh yeah, I like this! Listen to these fans going nuts! As our good friend Jim Ross would say if he were with us, I think business just picked up here!
A look of shock fills Breeze’s face as Kerry enters the ring. Blanchard runs at him and Kerry ducks and sends him over the ropes; Arn then tries a punch but Kerry blocks it and knocks him down and then sends Arn over the ropes. He has a staredown with Breeze and tells Breeze to come at him.
Breeze runs at him with the chair but Kerry punts the young man in the balls as Breeze drops the chair. Kerry then picks up the chair, leans back and nails Breeze, laying him out. Kerry then revives the referee as David lays a hand over Breeze’s chest. The referee then counts the pin: 1…2…3.
Winners and #1 contenders for the tag titles: Kevin and David Von Erich
The fans go wild as all three Von Erichs raise their hands in celebration.
Blanchard meanwhile drags a groggy and dazed Breeze to his feet and screams at him, ‘look what you’ve done, you idiot!’ Breeze backs up the aisle as an irate Arn and Tully follow him. Kerry then grabs a mic.Kerry Von Erich: Hey, Breeze. I hope I didn’t scramble your brains too much you little punk because I want you to listen to me: last week I was in despair. You revealed a secret that I’ve been carrying a long time. A secret that made me feel ashamed: that I had lost my foot in a car accident.
The fans chant ‘Kerry, Kerry’ as he nods at them.
Kerry: But now I realise I don't need to be ashamed. The messages of support I’ve received from these great fans has shown me that they are still behind me. (They cheer) In a way I should be thanking you, and I will show you my gratitude this Sunday at Grapplemania by giving you the beating of your life.
I just informed Eric Bischoff that if he wants me to show up Grapplemania, then I get to determine the match - and he agreed. Get ready kid because you are in for the toughest night of your life because you and I will meet for the Legends Championship in a No Holds Barred match!
The fans cheer as Breeze continues backing up the aisle, whilst holding his face.
Kerry: And as for you Brainbusters, my brothers will prove to you that when you knock down a Von Erich he gets back up and knocks you down with interest! Tell ‘em, guys.
Kevin: You Brainbusters think you have no equal here but we will prove you wrong at Grapplemania!
David: When this family is united, nothing can stop us. We respect you two as performers, but we don’t like you and we damn sure don’t fear you. At Grapplemania all the gold is gonna be with the Von Erich family!
The fans cheer as the Von Erichs again raise their hands and the segment ends with the Brainbusters talking trash from the ramp, and Breeze selling his injuries.
***commercial break***
***Backstage - Bockwinkel slips quietly into a spare locker room***
Bayley enters and says she doesn't think Bischoff's security followed her. She has something in her hands which are behind her back. She tells Nick to close his eyes as she has a surprise for him. When she gives Nick the go ahead to look he sees it’s a shirt…Bayley: Look! It’s our new t-shirt complete with our team’s new name…BAYWINKEL!
Bockwinkel: Wait, Baywinkel? That’s what we’re going with, huh? Hmm. Very well, then.
Bayley: Yay! Go Team Baywinkel! So what about that stipulation we discussed for our match with Kim and Rikishi? Shall we both run it by Bischoff together?
Bockwinkel: No, it's too dangerous. They may try to target you like last week. I’ll handle it alone. If something happens to me, don't come to my aid. It's preferable that one of us at least has some sanctuary.
Bayley smiles and says he's a great friend. She hugs him as Bockwinkel heads out.
***commercial break***We see a commercial involving a group of five bullies aged about 16 or 17 picking on two other kids of the same age.
Konnan walks by and tells them to stop. 'Don't be a bully, be a star' he says.
But Konnan, says one of the bullies, look at what shirts they're wearing. They unzip the two chaps's hoodies and we see one of them wearing a BWA shirt and the other one a WECWF shirt.
Konnan: 'My mistake amigos, carry on.' The bullies go back to chasing after the two fellas as Konnan turns to the camera. 'Hey, sometimes tough love is necessary.'
Bischoff was in the ring with all the members of what the announcers were calling The Autocracy – Marty Jones, a sullen-looking Rikishi, Kim Kardashian, and of course Dynamite King, the leader.
Bischoff spoke about Grapplemania and said it was the showcase of the immortals. He mentioned the great World Title moments that had encapsulated the past three title-winning years: Shawn Michaels taking the title away from the company in 2012; Dusty Rhodes joining the Four Horsemen and helping Flair retain the gold in 2013; and CM Punk defeating Hulk Hogan last year.
Bischoff said this year Dynamite King would defeat Stone Cold in the greatest match of all time and cement his place among the ranks of the other legends.
Nick Bockwinkel then entered to a big pop. He said Bischoff knew nothing about the history of the company and the fans would never accept him. He made reference to the ‘Get the Bisch Out’ campaign which was referenced on the Preview Show, and said that it now had half a million signatures worldwide.
He blasted Bischoff for firing J.R. and Davey Boy, and accused him of getting behind a bullying coward in Dynamite King. He said as far as Dynamite goes, ‘I am one of the doubters.’ He challenged Dynamite to a match right now as the fans cheered. Dynamite was fuming and looked like he was ready for a fight.Commentator #1: Bischoff needs this about as much as a hole in the head! Dynamite King is easily provoked as Davey Boy found out last week, and it looks like he wants to face Bockwinkel.
Commentator #2: Bischoff wanted to keep Dynamite fresh for Grapplemania but that plan may have been changed.
Just when it looks like Dynamite is going to rise to the bait again, Marty Jones steps forward and points at Bockwinkel.Marty Jones: How dare you, ya cheeky bastid! You aren’t fit to lace the boots of Dynamite King! You’ve sullied the name of the greatest fookin’ wrestla who ever lived and I demand a match against you, right now so I can shut your bloody gob!
Bockwinkel: Very well, Jones. I wanted to put down a Bulldog but it looks like instead I’m going to have to put down a lapdog.
Bischoff seems noticeably relieved and is about to make the match when Bockwinkel interjects.
Bockwinkel: I have one more request to make, Bischoff.
Bischoff (laughing): Oh you do, do you? Okay, you got me curious, Nick. Go on.
Bockwinkel: That foul-mouthed hussy in the ring: Kim Kardashian…
The fans cheer as Kim’s mouth drops at the insult.
Bockwinkel: She said last week that she wanted to have the derriere of that Sell-Out, aka Rikishi, put in Bayley’s face at Grapplemania.
Kim smiles and begins slapping Rikishi’s big butt as Rikishi seems irritated.
Bockwinkel: I meanwhile said last week that someone should teach a foul-mouthed creature like Kim a lesson. Well, myself and Bayley talked it over and here’s our proposal – at Grapplemania we have what we’ve dubbed a Soap ‘n’ Stink match.
Bischoff: A what?
Bockwinkel: A soap ‘n’ stink match, Eric. A first-time match for the industry. It will work like so - if Rikishi and Kim defeat us, then my friend Bayley will concede to taking a Stinkface from that gelatinous, money-grubbing, malcontent Rikishi.
But…if myself and Bayley win…
Bockwinkel reaches into his pocket and pulls out a bar of soap as the fans cheer.
Bockwinkel: If we win, then we get to wash out that foul mouth of Kim’s by having her eat this bar of soap right here. I don’t suppose you’ll like it a great deal, Kim, despite the fact we all know you’ve had far worse stuffed into that non-stop yapping contraption of yours.
The fans cheer as Kim is seen mouthing swear words. Bischoff shakes his head and looks like he is going to decline the idea when Kim grabs the mic.
Kim: You think that scares me, asshole? I know me and my bodyguard can beat you. Bring it on, motherf*cker.Commentator #1: We apologise for that language ladies and gentlemen, but what a match this is gonna be!
Commentator #2: Soap ‘N’ Stink: I like it! It’s what they should call the team of me and you.
Bischoff then rings the bell as the other members of The Autocracy exit and leave Marty alone – although Rikishi and Kim stick around. Dynamite barks some orders at Rikishi before heading up the aisle. Rikishi meanwhile stands there grimacing.
Match – Nick Bockwinkel vs Marty Jones
A match that starts off with a lot of brawling as a pissed off Marty comes at Bockwinkel with fists, elbows and uppercuts. Bockwinkel doesn’t back down, however, and matches the physicality.
Twenty minutes in and the match has become a great technical showcase for both guys. Highlights include Bockwinkel hitting a missile dropkick that sends Marty to the outside, as well as Marty nailing Bockwinkel with five successive gut-wrench suplexes.
The finish sees Bockwinkel slip out of a tombstone attempt by Marty and he nails Jones with a piledriver. As he is about to go for a cover, Rikishi stands up on the apron. Bockwinkel punches him down but Jones from behind cradles him and grabs a handful of tights for the 1…2…3.
Winner: Marty Jones
After the match Jones gets in Bockwinkel’s face and says that’s what he gets for his treasonous remarks against the King. Bockwinkel then clobbers Jones to the ground and begins punching him.
Rikishi then enters the ring and drags Bockwinkel off Jones. He then drops his big ass on Bockwinkel’s chest as Kim cheers. Rikishi then exits the ring and walks up the aisle.
After Rikishi exits, Marty Jones and Kim begin putting boots (and high heels) to Bockwinkel who is defenceless. While this is going on Dynamite King comes back out and goes face to face with Rikishi for a moment before heading down to the ring.
He joins in the assault on Bockwinkel with Marty and Kim.
Rikishi meanwhile is standing on the ramp watching this going on and shaking his head. The fans are raising their voices now, indicating they want Rikishi to go down and stop this.Commentator #1: Listen to this crowd! They want Rikishi to intervene. I think he’s considering it!
Rikishi takes a step towards the ring as the fans cheer widly, but he then turns around and walks up the aisle as the fans boo.Commentator #2: Nah, Rikishi knows which side of his bread is buttered.
We then see a shot of Bayley watching on backstage with her hands to her face. She watches on as Dynamite King, Marty Jones and Kim Kardashian raise their hands over the beaten Bockwinkel.
***commercial break***
***backstage segment*** Bischoff is in the hallway with Marty and Dynamite.
Marty is holding his neck, selling the effects of Bockwinkel's piledriver. Dynamite says he's worried about Marty and tells him to go get that neck checked by the doctor. Marty begins to object but Dynamite says it's an order. He leaves as instructed.
Bischoff remarks to Dynamite that he thought there should be more security back here. Dynamite says he's sure Marty has got a handle on things. A security guard walks by and Bischoff asks him why the security back here is light. The guard says Marty phoned and ordered it to be that way. Dynamite says 'See?' and strolls off. Bischoff turns to leave and asks the guard, 'you're certain Marty said that?' The guard says he's sure he recognises Marty's British accent. The guard leaves as Bischoff pauses for a moment and then follows Dynamite.
***Elsewhere*** Nick Bockwinkel is helped away
We see Nick Bockwinkel being carried by two medics. Bayley comes along and hugs Nick and says she was worried. Nick smiles through the pain and jokes she should see the other guy. He tells her the medics want to assess him at a local facility and apologises that he won’t be around later in case Bayley needs him. He warns her to be careful when she has her match. She promises she will and hugs him once more.
The camera then pans away and around a corner: we see Kim Kardashian pressed up by the wall having just been eavesdropping on the conversation. She smiles at what she’s heard as the scene ends.
Match – Sweet Saraya vs Bayley
As soon as the match begins Saraya went for a chop block and begin working over the leg of Bayley.***Flashback*** - Bayley landed hard on her knee last week and hurt it.
The story of the match was Saraya working over the knee and Bayley hanging in there as Saraya took control.
During the match, Kim Kardashian walks down the ring by herself and cheers on Saraya. She mocks Bayley when she is writhing on the mat in agony.
The finish of the match sees Saraya go up top to drop a knee on Bayley’s leg – but Bayley rolls out of the way. She then springs up and goes to hit the Belly to Bayley on Saraya, but her knee buckled. Immediately Saraya locked on her submission finisher, the Knightmare. As Bayley desperately crawled to the rope with the ref asking if she wanted to quit, behind the ref’s back Kim pulled the ropes away from Bayley and she was left with little option but to tap out.
Winner: Saraya Knight
Saraya afterwards got a mic.Saraya: Hey Kim, it looks like I’ve softened up this dozy cow pretty good for you this Sunday. I’ve shown you a lot in our training sessions but now let me show you what a stomp to the leg looks like - it will prove pretty useful for you, darlin.’
Saraya goes to lay some kicks on the prone Bayley, but Kim stops her.
Kim: F*ck yeah that sounds awesome Saraya, but, you know, what I really want to do to this bitch is humiliate her. I want her to realise a face like hers doesn’t belong in show-business. On Sunday, my bodyguard Rikishi is gonna stick his big ass in her ugly face – but before that why don’t we clean her up a bit, hmm? Her friend Nick Bockwinkel says I have a filthy mouth and wants to wash it out with soap, but guess what...
Kim reaches down her bra and pulls out a bar of soap of her own.
Kim: …instead it’s gonna be Bayley that has to clean up her act! Do me a favour Saraya, hold her down so I can wash out her sh*t-talking mouth. Despite Rikishi’s poor manners I still wouldn’t want him catching something from this little hoe…Commentator #1: This is disgraceful! And Bockwinkel can't stop it as he's been taken to a medical facility! This foul-mouthed Kardashian is gonna make Bayley swallow a mouthful of soap…

.Commentator #2: Oh my God, she is here! Paige is here!The roof goes off the place as the MNG Women’s Champion runs down the aisle and goes to the aid of her friend, Bayley. As she enters the ring Kim Kardashian gets in her face screaming ‘this doesn’t concern you’ and tells her to stay out of it. She slaps Paige across the face as Saraya watches on from behind.Commentator #2: Uh oh, that may have been a mistake, Kim.
Commentator #1: The last time she slapped an MNG performer it didn’t end well for her!Paige looks to the fans who cheer. She then slaps Kim across the face twice as hard, and nails Kim with the Paige Turner as Saraya looks on, unmoved.
Paige then throws Kim out of the ring as a referee comes in and, with the help of Paige, helps Bayley out of the ring. Throughout, Saraya looks on; her eyes fixed on her daughter. Paige gets a mic.
Paige: I know what you’re thinking, mum.
Paige’s eyes begin to well up and her bottom lip starts to quiver.
Paige: Last week you called me ‘weak’ and said ‘I didn’t have what it takes’. But now that I’m out here, in this ring, facing you eye to eye, woman to woman, you’re thinking to yourself: ‘is this weakness, or is it strength?’ ‘Does she have what it takes, or doesn’t she?’ And as I look in your eyes right now…
A tear rolls down Paige’s cheek and she pauses to compose herself as the fans chant, ‘Paige, Paige.’
Paige: As I look in your eyes right now I can tell that you just don’t know, do you? Because here’s the thing, mum. Last week you told these people and you told me that we have no idea what you’re capable of. But guess what, mum? You have no idea what I am capable of.
The fans cheer as Saraya gets a mic of her own.
Saraya: No, Paige. No, that wasn’t what I was thinking. Because Paige no one knows you better than I do. I know what you’re thinking before you do. That’s the way mothers are. And when your father, and your brother, pleaded with me this past week not to take you on in the ring at Grapplemania, I told them what I’m going to tell you: when I take that title from around your waist, I do it not just for my sake, but for yours. Because you don’t deserve it.
The fans boo Saraya as Paige shakes her head, wiping away a tear.
Saraya: You want to know what I was thinking, as you came out here like Wonder Woman to save the day? I was thinking, ‘what a complete and utter disappointment you are, child.’ You have learned nothing that I’ve taught you. Your heart is too weak, too warm and too fuzzy, and you let it turn that brain of yours to mush. You care for these people, for your friend Bayley. You want to be a role model for all of these idiot fans out here.
But my heart is not weak and warm; it is strong like ice. And my mind is just as sharp. These are the tools that will take me to that championship at Grapplemania. Because make no mistake Paige, there will be no sympathy from me; there will be no regrets; no remorse; at Grapplemania I will show the world that I am the top star of the Knight Dynasty and I will beat you in this ring.
Saraya then slaps Paige hard across the face. The fans chant ‘Paige, Paige’ as Paige remains motionless, tears rolling down her cheeks.
Saraya: I told ya you were weak. Look at you. You’re pathetic.
She hits Paige again - this time a clubbing blow to her chest that floors her. Again the fans chant for Paige.
Saraya: I knew you didn’t have what it takes. Unfortunately for you, I do. And at Grapplemania, when I kick your arse and take that title from you, believe me Paige: unlike when you were conceived, it won’t be an accident!
Paige then lets out a scream and jumps to her feet, and begins clubbing her mother’s face with rights and lefts as Saraya is taken aback with surprise.
Paige then runs the ropes and clotheslines her mother over the ropes and sends her tumbling to the floor as the fans go wild.Commentator #1: Paige has heard enough, and you can’t blame her!
Commentator #2: Maybe her mama was wrong! Paige doesn’t look so weak right now!Paige picks up the mic as her mother holds her face and looks stunned.
Paige: I didn’t want this, mum. I didn’t ask for this. Despite all the crap you’ve been coming out with, I never wanted you in my shadow. I never wanted these people to cheer me at your expense. But if they do…if these people do prefer me over you…I know why it is – because they know I’m better than you!
Saraya, now on her backside, is stunned and shakes her head as Paige laughs.
Paige: Oh yeah, they know it and at Grapplemania you too will learn it because this title of mine is going nowhere. And you will learn, at long last…THIS IS MY HOUSE, BITCH!!!
The fans cheer as Paige’s music plays and she clutches her title as Saraya backs up the aisle, shaking her head and mouthing ‘just you wait.’Commentator #1: It seems to me like Paige has stepped up in a big way here. I don’t think Saraya knows her daughter as well as she thinks!
Commentator #2: Huh-ho baby, I cannot wait for this match. Mother versus daughter for the first time ever in the Draft! I wish this match were right now cos I can’t wait ‘til Grapplemania!
***commercial break***
***Backstage - Rikishi's locker room ***We see Rikishi packing his gear and preparing to leave as Kim barges in holding her neck with one hand and her face with another hand.
Kim: Hey! Where the f*ck were you? I just got humiliated AGAIN on national television. You told me you’d be there for me, bitch tits!
Rikishi ignores her.
Kim (grabbing him by the arm): Look at me when I’m talking to you, fat ass!
Rikishi (freeing himself from her grasp): ‘Fat ass?’ Look who’s talking. I don't know what your problem is. You asked me to come out if Bockwinkel or Bayley caused you problems. You didn’t say anything about Paige.
Rikishi smiles. Kim nods her head and then slaps Rikishi hard across the Samoan’s face.
Kim: If it wasn’t for the fact I need you this Sunday I’d fire you as my bodyguard right now. And I have enough influence with Eric to have you fired from this company altogether if I wanted. Don’t forget that! Don’t ever forget that you’re my bitch, and I’m twice the bitch you are. Got it?
What I’m gonna do instead is I’m cutting your pay 50% and we’ll see what effect that has on your family's medical bills, you f*cking asshole!
Kim goes to slap him again but this time Rikishi blocks it and holds her arm. He stares her down for several seconds.
Rikishi: You know something, Kim. Bockwinkel was right about one thing: you do have a foul mouth.
Rikishi picks up his bags and walks out as Kim roars at him that he can't leave. But he does.
***Elsewhere*** Marty in the doctor's office is still waiting on the doctorMarty is holding the back of his neck and looking anxious. There is a blonde nurse there with him.
Marty Jones: Will you tell that bloody doctor to hurry it up, love? I’ve been waitin' nearly 'alf a bleedin' hour 'ere and I've got important work to do. My King needs me.
Nurse: The doctor will be here soon, Mr. Jones. Please be patient.
Marty Jones: I need to look after the security situation. Go find ‘im and tell ‘im to hurry up or there will be more firings around here if you catch my drift, darlin’.
She scuttles off to find the doctor.
Marty Jones (muttering and looking at the floor): Working with a bunch of stupid sods ‘ere.
After she leaves, a fellow in a white coat enters and walks past to study Marty’s chart. He has his back to Marty.
Marty: Oi! Doc! ‘Bout bleedin’ time you turned up. Quit staring at that poxy chart and get over ‘ere and see to my neck.
The doctor turns.
Stone Cold: What seems to be the problem, sir?
A look of horror falls on Marty’s face as Austin begins hammering away at Marty with rights and lefts, knocking him to the floor and then stomping a mud hole in him as J.R. would say. Austin then takes his stethoscope and puts it to Marty’s chest.
Stone Cold: Hell Marty, ya look a damn mess. My doctor’s diagnosis is not something you’re gonna want to hear but I think I better tell it to ya straight, son.
You’re suffering from a condition known as sorry sumbitch-itis. Symptoms include spouting a bunch of crap from your gums, and bending your ass over so damn much you lose your spine completely. Fortunately, there is a cure. It involves a size thirteen boot enema right up your sorry ass.
So hell son, hold steady cos this might just sting a bit.
Marty: No, no, no! Please!
Stone Cold puts a very rough ass whooping on Marty leaving the leader of the Kingsguard writing in agony on the ground. Austin then takes the stethoscope and...well, you can figure the rest out.
The nurse re-enters.
Stone Cold: Nurse, get this man a proctologist. Stat.
Austin leaves the room as the nurse is seen pulling back Marty’s tights and wincing at what she sees.
***commercial break***
***backstage*** G.M. Eric Bischoff's office
Dynamite is there pacing the halls. 'Can't believe that fat bastid walked out' he says. 'Kim's gone looking for him' says Bischoff, but the G.M. doesn't look convinced he will be seeing either person again on this night.
'Where the fookin' hell is Marty?' says Dynamite. 'He should be back by now.'
Then a lackey bursts in and says Marty has been attacked by Austin. He says the nurse saw Austin leave and come back with ropes and a hood.
'Bloody hell' says Dynamite. 'What's that mad bastid up to now?'
One other thing, adds the lackey: Jim Ross is here and he's about to head out and make his farewell address. Bischoff and Dynamite look at one another. 'Good thing we have that bargaining chip' says Bischoff and they hurry out of the room.
Final Segment – Jim Ross's Farewell AddressJ.R. gets a standing ovation from his fellow Okies as he enters the ring. He takes a mic.
Jim Ross: I want to thank you for that very humbling reception…
The music of Dynamite King immediately hits and he marches down the aisle with Eric Bischoff following close behind. They enter the ring.
Dynamite King: I’m afraid Jim Ross your farewell speech looks like it will be a farewell before you go to spend the rest of your life eating barbecue food through a fookin' straw. Don't act confused. I heard what what that bald bastid friend of yours did to the leader of my Kingsguard and don’t tell me it’s nothin’ to do with you. After what happened last week it’s obvious you two are in cahoots, Jim Ross.
Now you’re no longer here as our guest, but as my hostage.
J.R. puts his hands up and nods his head ruefully, as if he's not surprised. Dynamite smiles and grabs J.R.'s arms, putting them behind his back as the fans boo and chant for Austin.
Bischoff (turning to the ramp): We know you’re back there, Austin. We know you took out Marty and you must have been responsible for easing the security presence backstage. But we’ve still got the one person in this world you care about: that ass-kissing friend of yours, J.R. And unless you want Dynamite to break his neck, get your ass out here right now!
The fans again chant for Austin but there is silence. Dynamite then lifts J.R. up into a tombstone piledriver position…Commentator #1: No, not this!
Commentator #2: Oh my God.
The fans erupt as Stone Cold's music hits and the announcers note what a relief it is that he is here.
Dynamite releases J.R. from the move (though continues to hold him) as Austin steps out on stage – but he is not alone; he has a bargaining chip of his own.Commentator #2: Marty Jones! Tied up and hooded! Austin has him hostage!
Commentator #1: Looks like we’ve got a stand-off here, fans.Bischoff: Austin, you son of a bitch. Let Marty Jones go or J.R. gets his damn neck broken!
Bischoff stands there furious but Dynamite by contrast smiles and pushes Bischoff’s mic down.
Dynamite: It’s alright, Eric. I quite like this. It’s an old-fashioned prisoner swap he wants by the looks of it. Last week he played a knight in shining armour and this week he wants to play Cowboys and Indians. And I know you’d have no problem breaking Marty’s neck if I so much as laid a hair on your buddy J.R.’s head. That’s one thing I’ve always admired about you, Austin. You are a ruthless bastid.
In many ways, when you think about it, you and I aren’t so different, Austin.
Stone Cold: You bet your ass we’re different you sick son of a bitch. And we’re gonna stay different after Grapplemania ‘cos I’m gonna remain the one with the World Title belt, unlike you ya little bastard.
Dynamite laughs.
Dynamite: Austin, I think you’re forgetting that there was once a time when you were the one that was putting your hands on J.R. It was around the time you ‘sold your soul to the devil’ as J.R. put it, aligning yourself with Vince McMahon. Back then you viciously attacked The Rock in order to claim the Heavyweight Title.
Is that really so different to me aligning myself with Eric Bischoff in order to claim your title, and viciously attacking you? And if I take out this redneck cowboy bastid, does that make me any worse than you?
Austin listens to this with a scowl on his face.
Dynamite: Face it, Austin. The reason you hate me so much…the reason you regard this match on Sunday as the biggest of your career…it isn’t because you don’t know what to expect; it’s because you know exactly what to expect. Because you know you and I think and act the same way.
We’re both willing to give our bodies and souls in this ring to be the best, and we don’t care who we step on along the way to make it to the top.
You hate me because you know, deep down, I'm just like you. And you know you’ve never faced someone who understands you so well; who thinks like you; behaves like you. And that’s why this Sunday I will have your number Mr. 3:16, and I will become the new World Champion.
Stone Cold: Are ya gonna flap your gums all day, jackass, or are ya gonna make the damn trade?
Dynamite nods and tells Bischoff to make the trade as Bischoff is surprised. He beckons Austin down.Commentator #1: Austin is dragging Marty down with him towards the ring but it looks like he’s stopping at the ropes.Stone Cold: I can see this man means a lot to you, Dynamite.
Dynamite: He’s my mentor. He helped make me who I am.
Stone Cold: Would you trust him in this ring against any opponent?
Dynamite: You bet your arse I would. He helped revolutionize this business and he has the measure of anyone in this ring. I trusted him against Bockwinkel tonight and he didn’t let me down.
Stone Cold: Does Bischoff trust him though? And does Bischoff trust your judgement of him?
Bischoff: What are you getting at, Austin?
Stone Cold: I propose that at Grapplemania you have Marty Jones in one corner, representing you pieces of trash, and in the other corner we have a man representing good ol’ J.R. A man who will be fighting for the chance to win back J.R.’s job – as well as his own: Davey Boy Smith!
The fans cheer as Bischoff shakes his head; Dynamite remains motionless.
Bischoff: Forget it, Austin. I fired them and they stay fired! Bottom line!
The fans boo.
Stone Cold: Hmm, it sounds to me Eric like you are doubting your King.
The fans cheer as Dynamite eyes up Bischoff.
Stone Cold: If Marty is as good as you say, Dynamite, and can measure up against anyone, then let him prove it against another British icon in Davey Boy. Let Davey Boy fight for his job - and J.R.’s. But I think you’re afraid, son; afraid Marty can’t get the job done against Davey Boy, just like you’re afraid you can’t get the job done against me.
Dynamite’s face turns beetroot as Bischoff is shaking his head at Dynamite.
Dynamite: Make the fookin’ match, Eric, and let Marty prove this bastid wrong.
Stone Cold smiles as Eric tries to talk Dynamite out of it.
Dynamite: Are you doubting me, Eric? Make the bloody match, I said. I am the King!Commentator#1: Unlike earlier, looks like Dynamite’s hotheadedness is going to cause problems for the G.M.!Bischoff: Damn you, Austin. Fine. The match is made by royal decree: at Grapplemania, Davey Boy Smith will face Marty Jones with J.R.’s job - and Davey Boy’s - on the line.
The fans cheer as Austin steps forward with his hostage tentatively, as does Dynamite with J.R. Both hostages are then shoved forward as Austin catches J.R. who thanks him and rubs his sore arms.
Dynamite (smiling): Now that the exchange has been made we all know Austin you’re gonna want to go after me and Eric like you promised last week. Unfortunately for you though, it looks like the numbers are in my favour. Marty, let’s go grab this bastid; and make sure his cowboy pal doesn’t go anywhere either.
Suddenly up on the titantron we see a dingy hallway and there is Marty Jones tied to the chair with an Austin 3:16 shirt on him.Commentator #2: Wait a minute! If Marty Jones is up there, then who is…Dynamite pulls off the hostage’s hood and discovers it’s not Marty under there but…Commentator #1: It’s Davey Boy! It was Davey Boy all along! Dynamite and Bischoff got played by Austin – again!
Commentator #2: The masked man strategy isn't working too well for Dynamite lately!
Commentator #1: A taste of his own medicine!Davey Boy begins hammering away at Dynamite with rights and lefts as Bischoff’s security enter the ring and break up the melee. Dynamite manages to escape and head up the aisle as the security guys try to restrain Austin and Davey Boy.Commentator #1: Look at this! Stone Cold and Davey Boy are fighting off Bischoff's security!Commentator #2: You know what, I bet Davey Boy was responsible for security being scaled down backstage. Remember that security guy told Bischoff he got a phone call from a guy with a British accent? That helped Austin get in the building.There are Stone Cold Stunners and Powerslams aplenty as Bischoff's henchmen drop like flies.
Bischoff turns to leave the ring and head up the aisle too but J.R. spots it and he grabs hold of Bischoff’s leg.Commentator #2: Look at Ross! He’s got Bischoff!All of the security guards have now been knocked on their backsides by Austin and Davey Boy and as Dynamite watches from the ramp, Davey Boy grabs Bischoff as Stone Cold approaches the General Manager.Commentator #1: Bischoff is like a cornered rat now and Dynamite King doesn’t look like he’s in any hurry to go down and help!Bischoff looks up the ramp at his King who refuses to budge and panic floods his face; he gulps and reaches down for his mic.
Bischoff: Wait a minute, Austin! Wait a minute. You're forgetting something. Remember what I told you on the first show of the new season – my contract explicitly states that I can’t be physically assaulted without prior provocation. If you do touch me without provocation, I can and will strip you of your World Title!
The fans boo as a grin returns to Bischoff’s face.Commentator #2: Aha! We forgot about that stipulation. That just might save Bischoff’s bacon!As Bischoff is beginning to feel good about life again, from behind, J.R. steps forward and shoves Bischoff forward, sending him into Austin.
The fans cheer as a look of horror fills Bischoff’s face.Commentator #1: Uh oh! I think that may just count as prior provocation, you know!
Commentator #2: What, he barely touched him! And it was Ross’s doing!A smile falls on Austin’s face as he gives Bischoff the one-fingered salute and drops the General Manager with a stunner.
He follows it up with some more stomps and trash-talks over Bischoff’s body.
Dynamite meanwhile watches on from the ramp as Austin sits on the middle rope, beckoning Dynamite to come down. Instead, a smile creeps over Dynamite’s face and he mouths ‘I’m still standing.’Commentator #2: Look at this! Dynamite is smiling! He doesn’t care about anybody but himself!
Commentator #1: Last week Austin got his revenge on Rikishi ; this week Austin got his revenge on Bischoff. There’s just one man left on Austin’s hit-list: Dynamite King. And it looks like we’re gonna have to wait ‘til Grapplemania for that.
These two men will clash at Grapplemania for the World Heavyweight Title. This could not be more personal; the stakes could not be higher. Dynamite’s called it his chance at immortality; Austin’s said his very career may be on the line. One man is fighting for respect, another for revenge.
A match that will define legacies; a match that will determine legends.In the ring, Austin shares beers with J.R. and Davey Boy. Then J.R. approaches the announce desk. He puts a headset on.
Jim Ross: Hey guys! Is this a hell of a great night in Oklahoma City, or what? Boomer Sooner! Oh hell yeah!
The announcers start laughing.
Commentator #2: I gotta hand it to you, Ross. You and Austin have had Dynamite King and Bischoff's number the past two weeks.
Commentator #1: J.R. we're almost off the air. I'll leave the last words to you.
Jim Ross: Ladies and gentlemen, you're talking about seven emotionally-charged match-ups this Sunday. Titles will be on the line. Reputations will be on the line. Bah gawd folks, this event is not to be missed.

Jerry: Hello all and welcome to the biggest pay per view event of the year, broadcasting live from Madison Square Garden.
Mikey: Agreed partner, its gets no bigger than WrestleCade. Tonight is going to be off the charts.
Jerry: Who will walk out the World Heavyweight Champion? Who will have full control of the USCW? Can Ryback beat Goldberg’s streak?
Mikey: Well, we are about to find out. So put up your feet for the next four hours and have a good one folks!
Jerry: We get started with the Women’s Title match. Of course it’s a family affair after Brie won the title from her sister Nikki a few weeks back.
Mikey: Come on! She cheated her you douche!
Both Bella’s make their way out to the ring. Brie is getting the pop, while Nikki gets a “Slut” chant. Brie offers to shake Nikki's hand before the bell rings but Nikki rejects her sister’s good nature and slaps her across the face. The bell rings and Nikki starts beating down her sister. Nikki dominates most of the match; taking turns to trash talk her fallen sister. Just as she is about to put away her sister, Brie rolls her up with a small package. The ref counts, 1……2………..3!! Brie has retained her title. She rolls out of the ring quickly as Nikki is irate in the ring. Brie makes her way up the ramp and lifts the gold above her head.
Winner and still the Women’s Champion: Brie Bella
Jerry: What a victory for Brie Bella over her sister. What did you make of that partner?
Mikey: Well that was just awful. Yee can all come back from your toilet breaks now; I repeat the divas matches are finished for the night.
Jerry: Eh, that’s bad taste partner.
Mikey: Well that match left a bad taste in my mouth. Onto the proper stuff now!
Hollywood Hogan Tribute
We can now see John Laurinaitis and Jimmy Hart talking in the GM’s office.John Laurinaitis: I’ve put a lot of faith in you Jimmy. I’ve paid you well. You cannot let Mr Excitement himself down tonight.
Jimmy Hart talking back through his megaphone( which infuriates everyone including Laurinaitis): John, my old friend. What did Jimmy Hart tell you a few weeks back? I said I would personally guarantee a Bundy victory and I stand by that. You will be the sole owner of the USCW in about two hours.
John Laurinaitis: Jimmy, is there any need for the megaphone?
Jimmy Hart again using the megaphone: Well actually there is Johnny. How can people expect to hear the true voice of intellect Jimmy Hart over all these dumb fans?
John Laurinaitis: That is very true, the New York audience is probably the dumbest in the country. Well Jimmy, it’s been nice doing business with you.
Laurinaitis puts out his hand to shake and Hart shakes it back as both men smile.
Jerry: We now have a fatal four way elimination match for the Tag Team Titles. Under the conditions of this match, the titles can switch hands with any result, be that count out, submission or the good old fashioned way. Mikey, who do you fancy to win this here?
Mikey: I’m going with the Champs. The Twin Towers have been dominant since they got here and they shouldn’t fear anyone in this match.
The match starts with a big scramble with all four teams inside the ring. Eventually The Twin Towers knock both members of the Long Island Broskis to the outside and follow them to the outside. They start to beat down both Ryder and Hawkins as the teams of H&H and The Mega Plowers battle it outside inside the ring. Cody Hall eventually floors Buff Bagwell with a strong clothesline. Val Venis responds by hitting Hall with a dropkick. Venis and Henning deliver strikes to each other, until Venis finally gets the upper hand. He floors Henning with the Big Package and goes up top to hit his patented finisher, the Money Shot. Suddenly from nowhere a masked man comes through the crowd and pushes Venis off the top rope to the outside. He grabs a steel chair and heads into the ring. He rattles the chair off Bagwells head and drags Henning on top of him to make the cover. The referee makes the count…..1………..2……….3! The Mega Plowers have been eliminated.
Jerry: Who the hell is that? Screwed the Mega Plowers! God Damn it!
Mikey: I’m not one to cast suspicions but Pedro Morales would have to be the main suspect after what he did last week.
Jerry: Ya, got to admit that is a good shout! I hope not though, Morales is better than this.
Mikey: Is he really though? I can’t wait till Rick Rude puts him down later on. Again I can’t see past the Twin Towers here.
The masked man quickly exits up the ramp as the Bossman gets back in the ring. He starts to beat down Henning but Hawkins makes the save. Hawkins and Henning start to double team him, hitting him with a variety of different moves. Eventually Akeem makes the save and starts to clear house. He eventually piles Henning on top of Hawkins and hits the 747 Splash on both men at the same time! Henning is laid flat on Hawkins so the ref makes the count.1…………….2…………3! Henning unknowingly again eliminates another team, this time in the form of the Long Island Broski’.
Mikey: Wow. Henning’s on a roll. Where’s his partner Cody Hall?
Jerry: Mr Imperfect is going about this in you could say an effective way so far.
Cody Hall gets back in the ring and starts to beat down on Akeem but he is quickly overcome by the power of the bigger man. Akeem hits him with a head butt which floors Hall. Henning sneaks up behind Akeem and throws him over the top rope. Bossman begins to beat away on Henning and lines him up against the rope. Bossman goes to charge at Henning to knock him over the ropes but Henning ducks and Bossman himself flies over the top rope. The referee is making the count and he is up to a count of 7. Both men start to get to their feet as Henning helps pick up Hall. He seems to be checking on his tag partner’s condition, showing some real concern. Just as both members of the Twin Towers are clawing onto the ropes, Henning grabs Hall and tosses him towards both men, flooring the Champs. The referee continues his count….8………….9……………..10. We got new champions!
Mikey: Wow, Henning is a genius!
Henning grabs both titles and gets down on his knees celebrating in the ring. Henning is crying with joy as he kisses both titles. Hall looks on at him feeling his ribs as we cut to a promo.
Mikey: What a man. Give the kid both titles. He’s earned it tonight.
Jerry: Henning did eliminate all three teams, which is quite impressive.
Mikey: All with no help from his tag partner, Cody Hall!
Jerry: I think Mr Imperfect got enough luck and help tonight, don’t you.
Winners and new Tag Team Champions: H&H

We see Nikki Bella leaving a dressing room with a guilty look on her face. The door closes and the name “Pedro Morales” is wrote on it.
Mikey: What the hell is going on there?
Jerry: I don’t know partner, maybe they are in cahoots?
Mikey: Rude better dump that trash.
We now see Rocky Johnson talking to Raf32 backstage.Raf32: So that’s all forgotten about Rocky? I don’t want any tension between us.
Rocky Johnson: Of course it is boss. It’s in the past, time to draw a line under it and move on.
Raf32: Cheers Rocky. It’s good to have ya back in the company. Probably my best decision since the last time I signed you.
Rocky Johnson: We sure made a lot of money together and we will again starting tonight. Good luck boss, I’ll see ya out there!
Johnson walks off as Raf32 looks confident.
Jerry: That big match is soon but now we start off with a match that has become a strong rivalry. One where we saw Pedro Morales snap last week.
Mikey: Pedro has had enough of the games going on around here and for that I salute him. But he is gonna get his teeth shoved down his throat by Rude.
Jerry: Well you have been wrong all night so I won’t hold my breath.
Both competitors make their way out and now stare each other down in the centre of the ring. They both lock up and Morales proves to be the stronger of the two, knocking Rude to the canvas. Rude rolls out under the bottom rope to catch a breather.
Mikey: Smart move by the champ.
Jerry: Cowardly move by Rude.
He gets back in the ring and again locks up with Morales. This one goes on for longer and looks a lot more even but Morales eventually knocks Rude to the floor again with greater force than the first time. Again, Rude goes under the bottom rope and to the outside, pointing to his head saying “I’m too smart”. However Morales follows him out this time and throws him back into the ring, much to the crowds pleasure. As Morales gets back in the ring, Rude is there to meet him with kicks to the head. Rude begins to dominate now hitting moves such as a spike piledriver, a belly to back suplex and a DDT. Rude makes the cover after the DDT……1………….2……….No, Morales kicks out. This angers Rude who locks in a sleeper hold in the centre of the ring. Morales seems to be fading when suddenly he gets a second burst and fights his way out. He delivers elbows to the stomach of Rude and eventually hits him with a clothesline. Rude gets up and Morales hits him with his Caribbean Lift which again floors Rude. Morales locks in the Boston crab in the middle of the ring and it looks like Rude has nowhere to go. Just as Rude is about to tap, the Mega Plowers make their way to the ring with the mask used by the man who attacked them earlier on in the tag match.
Morales has to break the hold and confronts the Mega Plowers who are standing just outside the ring. Val Venis can be heard screaming “We found this in your dressing room, you piece of trash”. Morales doesn’t look like he knows what’s going on as Rude gets to his feet. The ref is trying to get between Morales and the Mega Plowers. Suddenly we notice Nikki Bella crawling out from under the ring. She tosses Rude his US Title belt. The ref is now trying to remove the Mega Plowers who have not seen Nikki Bella. As Morales turns around, he is met by the title belt to the head. The Mega Plowers back off and Rude makes the cover….1………….2…………3!! Nikki Bella gets in the ring to celebrate with Rude as she points and laughs at the Mega Plowers. The Mega Plowers eventually realise what has went down and storm to the ring but Rude and Nikki escape through the crowd.
Jerry: That good for nothing SOB. He got that poisonous Bella to plant the mask in Pedro’s locker room.
Mikey: Wow so smart from Rude. Nikki is a lucky girl.
Jerry: I think Rude will have an even bigger target on his back now for tomorrow night on Adrenaline.
Winner and still the US Champion: Rick Rude
We now have an interview backstage with Hollywood Hogan.“I don’t want to have to talk about the jealously of Randy Savage who can’t stand the fact that I’m the man, that I’m the leader and I’m the one that made wrestling what it is today. On the back of Hollywood’s shirt, if you read the fine print, it says “I am the man”. No truer words have been said about the man that all you people worship and tonight Ill prove that I’m the biggest icon this business has ever seen. Now let me talk about my best friend, that worn out, broken down, scare crowed hair Macho Man Randy Savage. I’m gonna break your spirit and after tonight you will have no choice but to officially retire from the wrestling world that we know today. Because once you diss Hollywood, once you mess with a man who makes each of your life’s better every day. You don’t mess with somebody Macho that the whole world worships because this will be the final goodbye to the Macho Man. Because when you’re with Hollywood, you’re with Hollywood for life! I’m gonna eat you alive in that cage, Savage. I can beat you over and over again, but in the cage Savage, I can hurt you Hollywood style, real bad. There’s no way your gonna beat Hollywood in a cage Savage because Hollywood Hogan is just too……sweet!”
“Im gonna send you a brand new rocking chair Savage, so you can sit in it and watch me rule the wrestling world! “
Jerry: Strong words from our champion there. And now it’s time for the match that will decide the faith of the USCW. King Kong Bundy vs Lou Thesz is next.
Mikey: The beginning of the era of Mr Excitement, I’m so excited!
King Kong Bundy comes out first with his manager Jimmy Hart. Hart is dressed as a trainer with a bucket and towel in his possession.
Jerry: Jimmy Hart is really playing his part. He looks ridiculous.
Mikey: The man guaranteed a victory for Bundy and will go to any means to achieve that. That’s true dedication.
Next out is Lou Thesz with his manager Rocky Johnson.
Mikey: Rocky Johnson is such a chump. Main evented WrestleCade last year to total side attraction this year. The man was released before he even got a rematch last year! Loser!
Thesz starts off at a very quick start delivering a series of punches and kicks to Bundy. He eventually backs Bundy up against the ropes and clotheslines him over it to the outside. Hart rushes over to the fallen Bundy and wipes his head with the towel. He squirts some water in his mouth and gives his man a pep talk. Bundy gets back in the ring and again is flattened by Thesz. Thesz locks in a variety of different submissions including , a headlock, a double wrist-lock and the backbreaker submission. Bundy escapes these all narrowly each time but is really struggling.
Jerry: Thesz is putting on a wrestling clinic. The greatest ever in my opinion.
Mikey: Come on Bundy, get it together. I have every faith in Jimmy Hart.
Thesz again picks Bundy up but is momentarily distracted by Hart, who has got up on the apron. This gives Bundy a chance back into the match, one he gratefully takes. Johnson rushes over to confront Hart and begins to get in his face to argue with him. The ref gets outside the ring to step in between them and eventually has had enough. He sends both men to the back which Johnson is extremely angry over. As both men exit to the back, Bundy is dissecting Thesz inside the ring. He hits Thesz with a body slam followed by an elbow drop and then a knew drop. Thesz seems to be in trouble. Bundy then hits his patented Avalanche Splash. The ref makes the count………1………………..2…………..NO! Thesz kicks out.
Jerry: You have got to admire the never say die spirit of Lou Thesz.
Bundy is clearly annoyed by this and goes to hit the Avalanche Splash again. However Thesz rolls out of the way in the last minute and now has a chance back into this match. He begins to beat away on Bundy and goes to Irish Whip him into the turnbuckle. As he does, Bundy collides with the referee, knocking him clean out. Thesz hits Bundy with the bridging belly to back suplex but the ref cant make the count.
Jerry: 1,2,3,4,5! This should be over by now, Raf32 should be out here celebrating.
We see Jimmy Hart walking down the aisle as he motions for someone to come out. It’s the Twin Towers and they storm down into the ring.
Jerry: Ah no, not this way. Laurinaitis’ cronies!
Mikey: Come on lads, finish this now!
They get in the ring but are met by a spirited defence by Thez, he knocks both men to the floor with a series of punches but is attacked from behind by Bundy now. All three men start to beat down Thesz at the direction of Hart as the fans get a “Rocky” chant going.
Mikey: He’s not coming folks. Make the cover, come on!
We here a familiar theme….
Jerry: Wrong again, Mike. Rocky is back to level the playing field.
Johnson comes storming down to the ring with a steel chair in hand. The Twin Towers exit the ring quickly, leaving Bundy and Hart alone in the ring with the fallen Thesz. He gets in the ring as Bundy pleads with him not to strike him with the foreign object. As Thesz comes too, he is struck to the head by Johnson with the steel chair.
Mikey: WOW!!! An earth shattering connection heard all around the world.
Jerry: WTF Rocky, you piece of s**t!
The fans boo loudly as Jimmy Hart offers Johnson his hand. Johnson duly obliges by shaking Harts hand and heads to the back! Bundy makes the cover as Hart tosses the ref into the ring. He makes he count slowly…………..1………………………….2……………………NO! Thesz has kicked out again.Wow! Bundy is extremely angry now and under the direction of Hart, hits three Avalanche Splashes in a row which surely will finish Thesz now. The ref makes the count……………….1………………..2…………………..3!!!
Winner: King Kong Bundy
Mikey: Oh my god, he has done it! The era of Mr Excitement begins now. Buckle on everyone!
Jerry: Absolutely disgusting, Rocky Johnson has screwed Raf32 out of his company. Johnson, you piece of trash!
Jerry: Oh no, not this guy! I can’t stand to see his gloating now.
Mikey: This guy? That’s your boss you clown. All hail King Johnny. (Stands up to applause)
Jerry: Oh god, I think I’m going to be sick!
Laurinaitis comes out on his “People Power” scooter waving to the crowd. The crowd are not happy one bit as he enters the ring and shakes Harts hand.John Laurinaitis: Evening all! As you all know by now, my name is Mr John Laurinaitis, the General Manager of Monday Night Adrenaline and now…..the sole owner of USCW! Thank you Jimmy. Thank you Bundy. And thank you………Rocky Johnson!
He salutes the crowd, as they boo heavily now so Laurinaitis is being drowned out.
John Laurinaitis: “it’s a new day for sports entertainment. And you are all the lucky few that will be able to say that “I was there”. And you were there. You know who was also there? Raf32. As my first act as USCW ‘s full owner, I’m ordering security to remove him from MY building! Safe travels friend! Secondly, I think we need a name change. This company could do with a bit of freshening up and so from this day forward, USCW will be known as “John Laurinaitis Championship Wrestling (JLCW)”. It’s got a ring to it, doesn’t it?
The fans are not happy one bit and get a “USCW” chant going!
Jerry: Ah is there any need for this. Be the bigger man, you won! You don’t need to humiliate the man to this degree. This was his company!
Mikey: Shut up, I’m trying to listen to the boss!John Laurinaitis: As you all know, I’m a man of very little words. I promise to give each and every single one of you the best value for money product going. And so ill leave you with this.
As he raises his arms he chants: “People Power, People Power, People Power!
The fans again drowned him out as he makes his way to the back!
Jerry: The face of the USCW has changed forever.
Mikey: Don’t you mean the JLCW?
Jerry: I suppose I do!
Commercial
We now have a backstage segment with Randy Savage.“WrestleCade 2, Madison Square Garden, ya. 30000 plus people watching right here, ya. Hollywood Hogan is the World Heavyweight Champion and that’s something I have a problem with because past, present and future, the number one wrestler in the universe is the Macho Man Randy Savage. Tonight the Macho Man Randy Savage and Hollywood Hogan have a date with destiny, oh yeah! Hollywood Hogan is the biggest snake going and let me tell ya how ya destroy a snake. You take its heads off, yeah! Hollywood Hogan already drew the line in the sand; I’m just following it up. Fasten your seat belts because it’s going to be a bumpy, bumpy ride. Watch out for the flying elbow off the top rope. Not only will I beat Hogan, 1,2,3 but I’m gonna hurt him real bad! Oh Yeah!!! Macho Madness is coming straight at you Hogan, ya!”
Mikey: That man is a freak. Hollywood is gonna put him down tonight and I cant wait.
Jerry: You would like that wouldn’t you. I think it’s the time Savage proved any doubters wrong.
Mikey: The man has never pinned Hogan, what are you talking about? Hogan will beat him 1,2,3 and retire him once and for all.
Jerry: Well, we can see about that. We now have our backstage reporter Sarah Williams who caught up with Rocky Johnson.
Rocky Johnson is loading his car, as the backstage announcer runs over to him.
Sarah Williams: Rocky, can I have a word from you? Why did you turn on Raf32?
Rocky Johnson: You got one minute and that’s it. The reason I turned on that piece of trash Raf32? I was screwed for the title last year and instead of getting a rematch, what does Raf32 do for me? He releases me from my contract due to cash flow problems. Is he serious? Im the biggest star this company has ever had. And when Johnny approached me with a great business package I never thought twice about it. The man respected me, the man was grateful to have a big star like Rocky Johnson here and that’s why I did what I did. Now excuse me if you don’t mind, I have got a pretty big cheque to cash!
Johnson hops in his car and drives off as the announcer looks on.
Jerry: Well there you have it folks. Rocky Johnson is driven by cash.
Mikey: Did you hear a word he said? He felt disrespected by that douche Raf32.
Jerry: All I know is that a great man has lost his company tonight and my thoughts are with Raf32. We now have the penultimate match of the evening. Its Streak vs Streak, Goldberg vs Ryback in a match which has got very personal.
Mikey: More history in the making right now. Ryback can and will beat Goldberg’s streak, I have every confidence in the big guy, especially in this Hardcore stipulation match up.
Both men make their way down to the ring and square up to each other. The bell rings and they lock up. After a few moments, its Ryback that powers Goldberg to the ground which is shocking. He starts to chant “Feed me more” and motions at Goldberg to come at him.
Mikey: The younger Ryback is just too strong for Bill Goldberg.
They lock up again and after an even longer tussle than the first, its Ryback again who powers Goldberg to the mat. Goldberg looks incredibly shocked as Ryback starts to get cocky. Again they lock up one more time and after an even longer tussle than the first two lock ups, its Goldberg who powers out so strongly, it send Ryback through the ropes to the outside. The fans start to laugh at Ryback as he gets angry. He tells them to shut up and starts to look under the ring. He starts tossing chair after chair into the ring as Goldberg watches on. Ryback enters the ring with a steel chair in hand but is met by a Super kick from Goldberg. Goldberg picks up the chair and tosses it aside and starts to go to work on Ryback. He hits him with a variety of different moves including a military press drop, a spinebuster, a front powerslam and multiple belly to belly suplexs. Ryback seems to be beat very bad as he struggles to his feet. As he does, Goldberg connects with the Spear. He makes the cover……..1…………2………No, Ryback kicks out! As Goldberg helps Ryback to his feet to hit him with a Jackhammer, Ryback low blows him. This gives Ryback a way back into this match.
Jerry: Filthy move from that SOB.
Ryback picks up a chair and beats it repeatedly of Goldberg's spine until the shape of his back is beat into the chair. The chair shots can be heard echoing around the now silent arena. As Goldberg lies motionless Ryback taunts the crowd. He then goes on to hit Goldberg with a series of different moves including multiple powerbombs, a fallaway slam and a back body drop. As Goldberg lies motionless, Ryback makes the cover. 1…………..2………..No, Goldberg kicks out. Can you believe that? This now irates Ryback who lines up for the spear. He connects with the spear and flattens Goldberg. He sticks his tongue out clearly trying to imitate Bill Goldberg. He picks him up and hits him with his own move, the Jackhammer. The ref makes the count…………1…………..2………..Goldberg powers out again.
Jerry: How is Goldberg still in this?
Mikey: I really thought the losing streak was still going to be intact right there, wow!
Ryback looks confused as to what else he can do. He picks up Goldberg, who fights back, delivering kicks to the stomach of Ryback. Goldberg grabs Ryback and hits him with the Shell Shocked out of nowhere. He slowly makes his way over to make the cover……….1………….2……….No, Ryback now powers out.
Jerry: What a match this is turning out to be. Another reason why this company is the greatest in the business.
Both men drag themselves slowly to their feet and its Ryback who pounces first hitting Goldberg with the Meat Hook. He makes the cover and again Goldberg kicks out just before three, although a lot slower this time. Ryback looks incredibly pissed now and heads outside the ring. He looks under the ring and eventually finds what he is looking for. He tosses a table into the ring. He gets back into the squared circle and begins to set the table up in the centre of the ring. He grabs Goldberg and goes to Jackhammer him. He lifts him up but in mid-air Goldberg fights out and lands on his feet. He pushes Ryback who charges back at him but is met by a spear. Now Goldberg does his famous taunt and sticks out his tongue.
Jerry: Now that’s the real Bill Goldberg.
Mikey: Ryback, get up! I don’t like this one bit!
Goldberg can be heard shouting “Ryback, your next”. Instead of making the cover, Goldberg picks him up and hits him with the Jackhammer through the table. The ref makes the count…………1…………2…………….3! It’s over. Rybacks winning streak is over!
Winner: Goldberg
Mikey: Damn it! Got to give it to Goldberg though. Hell of a performance!
Jerry: That short losing streak is over for Goldberg too, partner. You know, the one you and Ryback continually rubbed in Bill Goldberg’s face.
Mikey: No one likes a sore winner Jerry. Congrats to Goldberg, well done.
Goldberg celebrates in the ring over the fallen and motionless Ryback as we go to a backstage segment.
We see Raf32 being escorted out of the arena by 6 security officers. They lead him to his limo where John Laurinaitis is waiting for him. Raf32 looks a broken man.ohn Laurinaitis: No hard feelings Raf? As they say, the better man won and all that. I’d actually like to take this opportunity to wish you the best in your future endeavours. I heard the McDonalds down the road are looking for staff. Good luck friend.
He offers a handshake with a cheesy smile but Raf32 just smiles and shakes his head. He gets in his limo and drives off as Laurinaitis just looks on. He can be heard hymning to himself “People Power, People Power, People Power”
Jerry: Raf32 looks a broken man. Poor guy! And that egomaniac rubbing it in is disgusting.
We now see a split screen featuring Randy Savage dressed all colourful on the left and Hollywood Hogan dressed in black and white with Jimmy Hart on the right, making their way out to the ring.
Commercial
Jerry: The cage is being lowered for our main event. Its Icon vs Icon. A match that is decades in the making and that gets settled for good tonight.
Mikey: The biggest match of the wrestling calendar. This is what we are all in this business for.
Hollywood Hogan enters first with Jimmy Hart and a microphone in hand. He gets in the ring and tells them to cut his music.Hollywood Hogan who is looking towards Hart: “They told me when I was coming down the aisle Jimmy, that they wanted to see Hollywood’s pythons, brother, so I’ll let yee have it”.
Hogan rips off this t-shirt in his famous pose to the biggest heat of the night.
Jerry: Wow this crowd really hates Hollywood Hogan.
And now it’s time for the Macho Mans entrance.
As he is coming down, Hart exits the cage and takes up his position at ring side. Savage enters the cage and looks around his surroundings. The cage door shuts and the two men are alone in the ring with the referee. The contrast of the colourful Macho Man to the black and white Hogan is startling. As the bell rings, Hogan runs up the cage trying to escape.
Jerry: That coward. He wants nothing to do with the Macho Man.
Savage quickly catches him and drags him slowly down the cage. He starts to hit Hogan with a series of punches and kicks as he wears down Hollywood. He hits Hogan with a scoop slam and immediately picks him up and hits him with a piledriver. He makes the pin……..1…….2.... Hogan easily kicks out but is a little worse for wear. Hogan is laid flat out and gives the ref the x symbol. The ref goes to check on him and Hogan looks to be in a bad way. Savage isn’t buying at it though but the ref steps in to intervene him charging towards Hogan. Hogan gets back up and blindsides the Macho Man, clubbing him with a vicious blow to the head.
Jerry: It was all a ruse. Pathetic.
Mikey: That’s why he is our champion and the #1 wrestler today.
Hogan starts to clap his hands together saying “its just too easy for Hollywood”. He begins to beat down on the Macho Man and tosses him into the cage, head first. He motions for the ref on the outside to open the door and the ref obliges. He slowly makes his way out towards the door and walks out it onto the steel steps. Savage quickly realises this and charges after him. He grabs his head by the hair on the back and drags him back into the ring. Savage hits Hogan with an Atomic Drop and makes his way towards the door. As he sticks his head out, Jimmy Hart slams the door into his face sending him flying backwards into the ring. Hart orders the ref to close the door and the ref complies. The fans are voicing their disapproval as Hogan comes too.
Jerry: God I hate that weasel Jimmy Hart.
Savage is busted open. The blood is pouring down his face as Hogan begins to notice. Hollywood cant keep the grin to himself and immediately starts to beat down on Savage. He hits him with a belly to back suplex, an atomic drop and a body slam. He makes the quick pin but Savage kicks out at two. He picks him up and starts to deliver a series of punches but Savage ducks one punch and goes to swing off the ropes. However as he swings off the ropes and comes back to face Hogan, he is met by a big boot.
Jerry: The momentum is all with the champion.
The fans get a massive “Macho Man” chant going but Hogan does his famous can’t hear you pose which infuriates the crowd. Hogan then hits his patented leg drop and makes the pin………..1……………2………………..Savage kicks out, just. Hogan looks pissed now and as Savage crawls to his feet using Hogan for leverage, he spits in his face.
Jerry: Wow, Hogan truly is the biggest p***k in wrestling.
As Savage gets to his feet, Hogan begins to tee away on him, trying to bust him further open. Eventually Savage ducks one and hits him with his own punch. He swings off the ropes and hits him with a diving crossbody. Savage is beginning to build momentum now and hits a high knee followed by multiple elbow smashes. Hogan is beginning to struggle, when Savage grabs him and tosses him into the ring post.
Mikey: Hogans shoulder must be broken in half!
Then Savage grabs Hogan and tosses him head first into the cage.
Jerry: Randy Savage is on fire!
Hogan is now also busted open as Savage motions for the ref on the outside to open the cage door. As the ref goes to open the door, Jimmy Hart attacks him from behind. He knocks him to the floor and then throws him into the steel steps.
Jerry: That good for nothing!
Savage though is not too angry and just shakes his head. However he starts to climb the cage as Hogan is still motionless in the middle of the ring.
Jerry: Randy Savage is going to be World Champion.
As Savage gets to the top of the cage, Hart starts to talk on his megaphone.Jimmy Hart: You pathetic piece of s**t Macho Man. You know you can’t pin Hollywood, so that’s why you are running from him. You have two options, Macho. Be a coward Savage and climb out or be a man and try to do something everyone in this building knows you cannot do and that’s pin Hollywood Hogan!
Savage looks undecided what to do as the crowd chant “Don’t do it”. It seems like Savage is in agreement with the fans and he starts to escape the cage. However he then changes his mind and climbs back down to the turnbuckle. He gets up top and goes to deliver the elbow to Hogan. And he misses! Hogan rolls out of the way and slowly makes the pin….1…………..2………..Savage kicks out.
Mikey: This is why the Macho Man is a loser. This is the very reason why he has never pinned Hollywood. And this is why he will always live in Hollywoods shadow.
The fans get a “This is awesome” chant going as Hogan removes his belt. He begins to hit Savage with it over and over again. Savages back is now full of cuts as he lies motionless inside the ring. Hogan again does his cant hear you taunt and the crowd are incredibly hot now. He goes and hits his patented leg drop.
Mikey: That should do it! Hogan is gonna retain.
1…………………………2………………….No Savage again kicks out!
Jerry: How in the hell is Savage still in this thing?
Mikey: Just lie down Macho before you seriously get hurt.
Hogan cant believe it and goes to hit another leg drop. However this time its Savage who rolls out of the way. Savage then floors Hogan with a flying knee. He now gathers himself and starts climbing the cage. He reaches the top and we can hear Jimmy Hart roaring “You insane piece of s**t”. Savage looks down at him and roars, “You know what, maybe I am insane and maybe it’s time to find out how insane I really am”. He stands up on the top of the cage and turns around to face the ring. The fans get a “holy s**t” chant going as Hart pleads with him not to. The Macho Man ignores and delivers an elbow drop from the top of the cage that connects with Hogan!
Jerry: OH MY GOD!! Straight into Hogans black heart.
Mikey: I'm speechless.
Randy Savage slowly drags himself over to the still Hogan. He makes the cover…………………….1………………….2……………………….3!!!
Jerry: Savage has done it. He is the champion of the world! And he has finally pinned Hollywood Hogan!
Mikey: I didn’t think he had it in him but my congratulations go out to the Macho Man. What an amazing match. Give it up for both guys.
Jerry: True sheer grit and perseverance, the Macho Man has done it. He has overcame all the odds and now stands here today as the worlds greatest.
Mikey: I hope this is not truly the end of this illustrious rivalry but I got to admit it sure does feel like it.
Jerry: What a night this has been. The USCW/JLCW has changed forever! Id like to thank you all for tuning in to WrestleCade and we will be seeing you all again tomorrow night for Monday Night Adrenaline. Its been a pleasure all, until then, goodnight!
Mikey: God bless. Take care!
The show goes off air with Savage alone in the centre of the ring on his knees kissing the gold!

Jerry "The King" Lawler makes his way out to the ring. The crowd reaction is to say the least negative with huge amounts of booos"Ha... You know, I get it. You guys love those Aces of The Universe and you blame me that things have not been going their way recently but think about it... I mean really think about it. Every step I took, every single move I made was for your benefit and for the benefit of the BWA. I mean does anyone really think Mitsuharu Misawa would have Wrestlepalooza V's card looking so strong cos if I hadn't pissed off him and his little group of Aces we wouldnt be 1 week away from the biggest and best PPV in the whole draft PPV lineup.
You say your annoyed I brought in Samoa Joe who cost them their tag titles but really you are all clamoring to see Joe vs Kobashi Ⅱ, The rematch we have all been waiting years for. Apparently you think I have stacked the odds against BWA champion Hiroshi Tanahashi and yet everyone won't stop talking about CM Punks return to the squared circle and that wouldn't have been possible with any other match nor any other man negotiating it. And again I have raised your anger and disrespected Antoni Inoki by bringing in Big Van Vader but in Japan you couldn't book a bigger rematch than those two going at it and I made that possible."
"Hell even the tag title match at Wrestlepalooza has gotten a lot of flak cos I made it a no DQ match but really what other type of environment would you want to see people like Abdullah the butcher in. You might not realize it but I am giving you people exactly what you want and giving the BWA what it needs.
The boos are actually starting to die down a bit as perhaps the crowd are starting to see things from Lawlers perspective.
Truth be told I was only ever given the GM position on a trial basis and that Wrestlepalooza was my chance to prove myself. That is why I pulled out all the stops to put on the best f'n show possible from Ronda Rousey's professional wrestling debut to the return of the Intercontinental championship.... and now despite all that I have to fight for my job! I have to take on a man who has done nothing to be worthy of this job. Getting your ass kicked by the briscos week after week does not qualify you to run the biggest show in town now does it.
Suddenly out comes Mitsuharu Misawa dressed in a suit and tie
Lawler: : look who it is all, dressed up... is that how you impressed the board cos I woulda thought they coulda seen past the label I mean this guy (points at Misawa who is now walking down the ramp and getting into the ring) tried to enter an ugly contest and the judge said 'Sorry, no professionals.
Misawa grabs a mic and yells at Lawler "Shut the hell up Lawler"
Misawa: God knows you can talk Jerry and i'll give it to you you have booked a great PPV but god damn whenever you open your mouth all that comes out is juvenile insults or lies. If you had come out and shown us or the fans the respect we deserve there would be no issue but you couldnt do that and now you will pay the price.
Getting my ass kicked by the Briscos doesent qualify me ha ha ha so funny Jerry... what about having been AJPW president, the founder of Pro Wrestling Noah and having served as the chairman of the Global Professional Wrestling Alliance ? no, no need to mention that eh Jerry. No need to mention anything that might not suit your agenda like the fact that the board have asked me to book the show tonight (the crowd cheer) no why mention that?
Lawler looks like for the first time ever he is actually caught for words, something the commentators actually point out.
Misawa: O don't worry Jerry I won't be booking you in any handicap matches or abuse my power as you have been doing but you do have a match tonight...against a man who I am sure will relish getting his hands on you almost as much as I will this Sunday... tonight Lawler you will go one on one with my friend Antonio Inoki!
Lawler looks p!ssed and loses it as the two men who will go 1 on 1 for the chance to run the BWA come to blows in the ring. With Lawler getting in the better shots as by the time Misawa can get his suit jacket off security has stepped in to separate them and usher tonights GM to outside the ring. Jerry goes to follow him out of the ring until Misawa tells him not to go anywhere cos that match is next!
Misawa heads over to BH at the announce table and whispers something to him as we go to commercial with Lawler looking mighty annoyed in the ring.live from the Tokyo Dome

BH: yep! for the first time ever outside of Japan it will be Hiroshi Tanahashi vs Shinsuke Nakamura! and joining us on commentary for that match will be none other than CM Punk!
JD: Jaysus I can't wait, although this match right here is PPV quality too.
Opening match: Jerry "The King Lawler" vs Antonio Inoki
Inoki who shakes Misawa's hand as he makes his way out and his countryman heads backstage looks really up for this one and starts the match like a man possessed. Vader may be the man he has history with and whom he will face at Wrestlepalooza but it was Lawler that set Vader on him. Unfortunately this match does not get to develop too much though as the before mentioned Vader spoils the show interfering and turning this bout into a 2 on 1 beatdown. The ref calls for the bell and gets in between the attackers and Inoki as the commentators ponder if perhaps we will get to see that 1on1 match go the distance somewhere down the line, perhaps on PPV.
Winner via DQ: Antoni Inoki
The refs both brave and foolish actions allow Inoki to roll out of the ring and get up the ramp to where his associates Kenta Kobashi and Hiroshi Tanahashi eventually come out to help him to the back. Before that happens though he looks back to the ring to see his Wrestlepalooza V opponent grab the referee and give him a powerbomb.Backstage we see Mitsuharu Misawa in a makeshift GMs office where he is chatting to Mil Mascaras, We overhear Misawa tell Mil that he understands his desire for a big name opponent at Wrestlepalooza and although Jerry Lawler had seemingly overlooked the Mexican superstar he has a perfect opponent in mind. However Misawa states that he has to make a few calls to set things up but that up next Mascaras has a match and since he hasn't exactly been on a roll of late that he should get out there and show he deserves a match on the biggest card in all of sports entertainment.
Gerry w/Jack Brisco vs Mil Mascaras
This is a fairly even contest with Gerry Brisco impressing despite his opponent clearly looking like he has a point to prove, that is until Mascaras catches him in an Indian deathlock and everything changes. Jack pulls Gerry's free hand under the ropes and the ref who eventually notices forces Mascaras to break the hold. Gerry though isn't best pleased and tells his brother that he wants to win this honestly and not cheat (which he obviously considered his brothers assistance to be a form of). Overhearing what they were arguing over and realizing that Jack had just interfered the ref orders him to the back. His desire to win clean was honorable but as the commentators note he won't have such an option at Wrestlepalooza a fact that is further highlighted when the Mexican superstar picks up the win after a massive diving crossbody.
Winner: Mil Marascas
JD: Should have accepted his brothers help
BH: I hate to say it but the honourabe road is not always the right one to take when your inside a wrestling ring
JD: well we will find out next Sunday just what lengths the Briscos will be willing to stoop to anyway because with the Sheik and The Butcher you can be sure it'll be anything but a clean match
BH: agreed... look how much this win means for Mascaras though he has finally broken his losing streakJust then Mitsuharu Misawa Re-appears, this time on the titantron.
"I am glad you took my words to heart Mascaras, that was a very impressive win and you will need to be at your impressive best for the match I have for you this Sunday in Tokyo. You see in the BWA you have to be willing to put everything on the line just to be here and your opponent at Wrestlepalooza understands this. That is why he specifically asked to face you in a match he knows you have never lost but a match where you like he have everything to lose... a Mask vs Mask match!
therefore I would like to welcome to the BWA for the first time ever... Tiger Mask!
out comes the Japanese masked hero who goes toe to toe with Mascaras in the ring. He points to the big Wrestlepalooza V sign suspended from the rafters and then when Mascaras nods to show he accepts the challenge the two shake hands garnering a great reaction from the fans in attendance.Backstage Pat Patterson is interviewed by Sean Mooney and says that he can't believe what has happened to the BWA but that he plans on cleaning it up, first tonight where he will take on and beat a sexist pig (Jesse Ventura) before next sunday in Tokyo he saves the IC title from falling into the grasps of a homophobic low life whom he cannot believe he once looked up to
BH: I really hope Pat can win both those matches his opponents really need to be taken down a peg or two
JD: Couldn't agree more and... wait a second...Oh my gawd, it's CM Punk!
BH: The UFC is in the house!
CM Punk, Ronda Rousey and Dan Severn come out to one hell of a great reaction from the crowd. Punk sits in the middle of the ring in his cross legged pose he has become so well known for whilst the other two speak first.
Ronda is first and says that it has already been announced that CM Punk will be on commentary when his PPV opponents go 1 on 1 but that she too will be at ringside for her opponents match tonight! She says she wants to see first hand why Ventura is so cocky that he agreed to an MMA rules match against as Eminem called her "The slaughterhouse in a blouse".A clip is shown of the media storm that was Rousey/Ventura in the past week, starting on Twitter where Ventura slammed the standard of fighters in UFC and then continuing on to Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Daily Show with John Stewart where The UFCs head honcho Dana White's old quotes about Rousey & Floyd Mayweather (There aren't many men in combat sports like her....Ronda Rousey would hurt Floyd Mayweather BAD!) lead to Jesse Ventura over compensating and claiming he would even beat her at her own game, a MMA rules match up... queue a joint BWE & UFC.com announcement that their match at Wrestlepalooza will now be contested under such rules.
She leaves the ring and heads to the back after this video and passes the Mic over to Dan Severn
Then Severn takes the Mic and says that he too has been thinking about Wrestlepalooza. He says that he has asked Mitsuharu Misawa to get him an opponent tonight. He states that the UFC's deal with the BWA is for several PPVs and that he intends on making a statement at the first of them and that whomever gets in his way will pay the consequences.Just then Mitsuharu Misawa appears on the titantron. He confirms that yes Severn had asked him to find him an opponent for the upcoming PPV but that an opponent found him instead and that their match is now official and that it'l be...
Misawa never gets to finish his though as Seiji Sakaguchi comes out of the crowd (much like the UFC fighters did last week when he and Nakamura were attacked) charging into the ring tackling Severn hard and sending the two through the second rope and to the outside. This causes Punk to get to his feet but he just watches on as the two fight all the way up the ramp and into the back. We are later informed that BWA security and backstage personnel eventually separated them.
JD: You would have to assume that Misawa was about to announce Sakaguchi as his opponent for Wrestlepalooza
BH: That would make sense... wait hold on (holds his headset and listens intently)... yes I can now confirm that match has officially been booked for this Sunday in the Dome
Then it's CM Punks turn as the straight Edge superstar takes the Mic . He talks about his appearance on the show last week and how he was surprised at the thrill he felt setting foot in a professional wrestling ring once again. It was a first for him in as much as his first time appearing in a BWA ring and he says that next Sunday at Wrestlepalooza V it will be another first for him as he makes his Tokyo Dome debut while winning the BWA world heavyweight championship.
Just as the World title is mentioned... here comes the champ as Hiroshi Tanahashi's music hits and out he comes and enters the ring.He tells Punk that he specifically asked for a match vs Punk. That he went to the board of directors when he heard negotiations were on going with the UFC and told them to get him Punk for Wrestlepalooza. He says that last year he beat the man who called himself "The best there is, the best there was and the best there ever would be" in the drafts biggest main event ever and sent him packing to the BWA retirement home known as the WECWF. Now this year he wants to defeat the man who calls himself "The best in the World" because to put it in simple terms there can be only 1 best wrestler in the world and thats him.
Punk: Usually at this point I would look the chump standing in front of me straight in the eye and tell him I am straight Edge and that that means I am better than you but Tanahashi I think your different. (he then reaches out and offers to shake the champs hand. The two shake hands but Punk refuses to release his grip) you see I don't think you smoke or abuse drink or drugs but my name is CM Punk and that means I am better than you!
Tanahashi: I love it. I look into your eyes Punk and I can see you believe the words you say. You truly think you are the best in the world and I have to admire that. You have shown me respect by shaking my hand here tonight and through your words throughout the media recently. Me and you Going face to face, toe to toe, mano a mano, however you want to put it is a dream match that would headline any PPV for any promotion anywhere in the world... and I know that Jerry Lawler let you pick your opponent but I must ask you to please reconsider involving (Shinsuke) Nakamura.
The man has not earned a title shot. You do not reward disgusting, dishonorable behavior like his in such a way. Had you not intervened the man would have been suspended for his actions
They are both interrupted though as Shinsuke Nakamura emerges from the back whilst laughing to himself and looking rather crazed as per usual.
Nakamura: mwha ha ha, Tana.. you fool, you and your Aces of the Universe don't get it. Did you not hear Punk last week cos I did even after he attacked me from behind like the bitch that he is. I spat in his face, I interrupted his press conference and crushed his skull with my knee, I insulted the man and to put it simply I got in his head. I more than earned that title shot by making the great CM Punk want to fight me so much that he became a victim of his own greed and now his legacy will be meerly as the man who unleashed The Lord of Wrestling upon the world as BWA champion!
Punk: Seriously The Lord of Wrest...
Nakamura: Shut your god-damn mouth you sniveling piss-ant! I have a surprise in store for you tonight... both of you. But nobody should be surprised when I beat you tonight Tanahashi and then this Sunday (he lowers his head momentarily before raising it sharply with his eyes rolled back but continues talking) I will win the world title... believe... Then he snaps his fingers and all the lights in the Arena go out
eventually the power is restored, and although the ring has been cleared the show resumes
JD:What the hell did we just witness!?
BH: I've no idea but I know we will see all 3 of those guys again for tonight's main event
JD: and what do you think will be Nakamura's surprise
BH: I don't even want to try and think what that madman might have in mind so thankfully we have a match coming up to focus on instead
JD: I think this is one that Lawler booked during the week before Misawa came to power
BH: Yep think this is what he considered a tune up match for the man who will face Antonio Inoki next Sunday
2on1 Handicap match: Big Van Vader vs 2 local wrestlers
Antoni Inoki comes out and views this one from the top of the ramp-way but unlike his PPV opponent earlier he stays outof the match as Vader dominates two men at once and eventually powerbombs both of them before performing his as always impressive moonsault for the win.
Winner: VaderBackstage we see a member of the BWA production staff knock on a door which almost immediately opens. The staff member then says "Ladies a space has been made for the two of you in the front row for tonight's main event, in case you need them these tickets were sent back for you" a slender hand takes the tickets and then just before the camera pans around to reveal whom they are Jesse Ventura walks past on his way out to the ring and the camera man immediately starts to follow him instead--Commercial Break--
Did You know: In a previous draft then BWA chairman Bounty Hunters identity was revealed as none other than Jay Leno!Jesse Ventura makes his way out from the back accompanied by a lady whom he says he just had a little pre-emptive celebration with backstage such is his confidence going into tonights bout. He pats her on the backside and says "hoo-rah, now off with you missy" as he sends her back into the crowd in attendance here tonight chuckling to himself as he does.
Ventura: I am a goddamn Sexual Tyrannosaurus I tells you... Woman just can't get enough of "The Body"... I guess that must be why Ronda Rousey is so desperate to get her hands on me at Wrestlepalooza. I even heard her quoting my old catchphrase this week such is her infatuation with me "Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat!". Now she was claiming my saying that is why I've been challenged to an MMA rules match where apparently I can't cheat but come on like im going to need to cheat in this one. Still ill give the little lady what she claims she wants when we head to Japan then after I make her submit we can have the rematch she really wants.... back at the hotel.
Pat Patterson w/Ronda Rousey vs Jesse Ventura
Just as this match is about to begin Ronda Rousey comes out to a great reaction and watches from ringside cheering on Patterson. On a number of occasions Ventura allows himself to be distracted by Rousey at ringside and one in particular leads to his downfall. After Ventura uses a typical heelish rake to the eyes Patterson is down in the opposite corner and the ref checking on him and his vision. Meanwhile Jesse turns his attention towards Ronda calling her over. I would say she goes face to face with him but with him standing on the ring apron she ends up going face to something else and is disgusted when Ventura starts gyrating and making gestures suggesting sex acts towards her. He laughs to himself and turns to get back into the ring but Rousey loses it feeling disrespected and low blows him. Ventura stumbles into the ring and right into Pat Patterson who rolls him up in a school boy style pin for the 3 count.
Winner: Pat Patterson
Ventura staggers to the back almost immediately clearly looking embarrassed by the loss as Rousey celebrates with Patterson.
These celebrations are cut a short though as Gorgeous George appears on the titantron and cuts a scathing promo on Patterson.*clap* *clap* *clap* well done Patterson, only thanks to a woman could you win a match. Thats how much of a joke you are. Speaking of jokes, your little speech last week about how much you looked up to and admired me sure gave me a laugh. Talking about the great pageantry of my entrance, the "resplendent capes" (actually does the air quotes) or my bravado and showmanship. The thing is I did all that for one simple reason... to piss people off! not to inspire some little queer, so Mr and Ms Patterson if I played any part in turning your son into the sniveling little b!tch the world saw on Legends house I am sorry but it's not my fault he didn't get that he loves what everyone is supposed to hate and he is what I hate. I assure you however I will beat some sense into him at Wrestlepalooza as I become the BWA intercontinental champion.As we head to commercial the BWA remind everyone that Gorgeous George does not represent the thoughts of everyone in the BWA and his opinions are simply his own. They then show the following clip for BWA legends house repeating this thursday night
Samoa Joe vs Kenta Kobashi II Contract signingTonight's GM Mitsuharu Misawa is in the ring holding a contract. He talks about how epic a bout the first meeting was between Samoa Joe and Kenta Kobashi was and how he never thought he would see a rematch. He then calls out his friend Kenta Kobashi who gets a very warm reaction from the BWA crowd which he thanks them for. He says that until recently he had huge respect for Samoa Joe. He says that nobody had pushed him to the limit like Joe had in years and that his undefeated streak since they faced off in TNA and RCW clearly showed he is a force to be reckoned with. That said he doesen't think this is the same Samoa Joe he faced back in ROH, that his actions since arriving in the BWA seem to suggest that he has changed and that... He is interrupted by Samoa Joe's music as out comes the Samoan Suplex Machine.
He gets right up in Kobashi's face then turns to Misawa and snatches the contract from him and drops it on the table set up in the ring infront of Kobashi. "Sign it" he demands. Kobashi looks shocked and Misawa asks Joe to "show a little respect" at which point Joe stares the man in charge of the show right in the eye before pointing to the outside and screaming "get out!" at him. Misawa exchanges a glance with Kobashi and then as he is not exactly dressed to fight steps between the ropes and watches from the outside. "Now sign" shouts Joe... Kobashi looks confused but obliges and signs the contract. Joe almost immediately follows suit and then turns to leave but his now official Wrestlepalooza opponent grabs his arm to stop him and asks "what happened to you Joe?" "What happened to the man I faced in ROH?"
Joe looks seriously pissed at Kobashi laying his hand on him and slowly turns to face him then grabs the mic out of Kobashi's hand. "What happened to him... what happened to him you ask... HE LOST! You see you and your cohorts (pointing out at Misawa) talk so much about respect that I bought into it, I showed you the respect I thought you deserved when we faced off... but I was wrong, I showed you too much respect and you took advantage of it. You didn't give me a chance to get back up when you knocked me down did you oh no that was this respectful fool but I realized something... you see the thing is Kobashi I don't need to respect you, i just need to beat you and damn am I going to beat you. I am going to beat you so bad you will be lucky if it isn't also your retirement match. Then as no.1 contender I will headline the next BWA PPV by beating your friend Tanahashi for the BWA world title, something you have never won" He then turns to leave the ring again but as he does Kobashi once again grabs his arm to stop him but this time as he Joe just turns around and starts laying into him with huge chops.
Misawa gets back into the ring to try and separate the two but receives a big chop for his trouble too before Joe rolls out of the ring and heads to the back
Backstage interview with Hiroshi TanahashiJosh Matthews: Earlier tonight you asked CM Punk to reconsider the match he negotiated for Wrestlepalooza. We have since learned that this match is now official and cannot be changed but why did you want Nakamura removed from the match... do you not think you can beat him?
Very few people know Shinsuke like I do Josh. Together we lead the way in NJPW's resurgence, then we made worldwide news when we left Japan and joined the BWA last year. Along with myself he was a founder member of the "Aces of the Universe" a group which not only dominated the federation and ran the dastardly Hart Federation out of the company whilst holding all the titles the BWA had to offer but also a group that brought honor and respect back to wrestling.
You see Shinsuke wasn't just another great wrestler from Japan to me... he was my best friend. He was the man I always thought would be by my side and the one man whos support I came to count upon. I would never deny that man anything he wanted, anything he deserved or any opportunity but that man... that man is long gone.
When I look at my former friend now, the man that calls himself the "lord of wrestling" all I see is someone who will drag the company down, someone who will bring our brand into disrepute and someone who should never be associated with the World Heavyweight Title. I mean we went through the same thing with the "Aces of The Universe". We didn't want to cast aside our brother but you see not everything in this world plays itself out on the set of our monday night wrestling show and trust me we tried everything within our power to help him but some people just can't be helped. Unfortunately sometimes people just have to be cut loose for the greater good.
I mean Nakamura three weeks ago spat in the face of someone in the crowd and tried to posses a fellow wrestler, the following week in a non BWA arena he attacked someone and almost jeopardized a major deal for the company and then last week he stooped as low as to bring someones wife into his depraved little game.... Is that really someone you want to see fight given an opportunity for the most valued and prestigious championship in the world. No doubt he will try to do something despicable tonight too but just like this Sunday when we both return to Tokyo alongside CM Punk it will be up to me to stop him and up to me to fight for the pride of the BWA.Tonights main event
Tanahashi vs Nakamura w/CM Punk on commentary
CM Punk gets a great reaction as he comes out and joins the commentary team but then looks somewhat bemused as his wife AJ Lee and Tanahashi's wife make their way down to where two ringside seats had been squandered off for them.
JD: I didn't even know Tanahashi had a wife
BH: They are newlyweds and Hiroshi likes to keep such things private so seeing her here is quite a surprise
JD: Speaking of surprise, Punk you don't look like you expected AJ here tonight either?
Punk: Honestly I thought she was in FPW tonight but she did text me earlier saying she was looking forward to seeing me tonight so I guess it makes sense
Then out come Tanahashi & Nakamura and we are treated to a match that looks something like this until the finish. Tanahashi does not seem to notice his wife's presence at ringside until midway through the match, (he seems surprised and bemused by it) but by that time the match has intensified to such an extent that his focus has to remain on his opponent.
The end of this match sees Tanahashi lock in his cloverleaf submission only for Nakamura to make it to the ropes and force the hold to be broken. As the ref admonishes Tanahashi, Nakamura rolls to the outside where he searches through the red vest jacket that he wore out to the ring before getting back into face his opponent who quickly advances on him upon his return to the ring. Nakamura hits him with a big right hand and the champ drops to the mat immediately and is busted open. The commentators immediately spot that Nakamura had something metal in his hand which he must have gotten when on the outside and moments later it is reveal as a pair of steel handcuffs as he cuffs the bloodied Tanahashi to the turnbuckle.
Upon seing this CM Punk immediately leaves the announce table and heads over to ringside and starts shouting at Nakamura. He does get his attention but Nakamura seemingly just laughs at him as he salutes the heavens. Perhaps that was a signal though as just then Seiji Sakaguchi jumps the guard rail and attacks Punk from behind ramming his head into the ring post on the outside. Then as Punk is disorientated Sakaguchi pulls out a pair of handcuffs of his own and cuffs Punk to that turnbuckle.
The ref has obviously called for the bell at this point but Nakamura does not care as he starts slapping the sh!t out of the restrained Tanahashi in one corner while Sakaguchi does the same to Punk on the opposite side of the ring. Ms Tanahashi & AJ Lee are screaming at ringside having to watch this up close and personal and AJ just can't take it anymore and despite Tanahshi's wife's protests she jumps the barricade and rounds the ring looking to try and help her husband. Unfortunately though Nakamura intercepts her on route and tosses her into the ring. He then orders Sakaguchi to get Tanahashi's missus.
The two (particularly AJ) squirm to get away from Nakamura but after a double DDT plants them on the mat they lie motionless in the ring and squirm no more. The boos are now deafening from the crowd who clearly don't appreciate Nakamura laying his hands on the two women. Obviously neither do Punk and Tanahashi who both try their best to break free from their restraints but to no avail and they have to watch on as Nakamura once more shouts an order at Sakaguchi who this time retrieves a black bag from the outside from within which Nakamura produces an electric razor then in scenes reminiscent of 3 weeks back when Sakaguchi was the victim Nakamura proceeds to partially shave both womens long beautiful hair as Punk and Tanahashi shout abuse at him and continue to fight for their freedom. Sakaguchi then holds the ladies up on their knees before Nakamura as he rolls his eyes back in his head and starts chanting in Japanese but moments later he stops as he hears the crowd cheer.
Dan Severn & Ronda Rousey, CM Punk's friends from the UFC are charging down to the ring to help out their buddy so Nakamura and Sakaguchi make a quick exit posing as they do, clearly claiming a mental victory here tonight. Surely there will be some repercussions for these heinous actions come Sunday in Tokyo though.

“And Tonight CHAOS WILL RISE!!! “(The clips ends with Vince McMahon laughing manically. )Fireworks and pyro go off from a sell-out crowd at the Nashville Tennessee as we welcome you to the Pay Per View Extravaganza: Chaos Rising!. Its very much a hot crowd and a being in Nashville its very Pro Jeff Jarrett as the camera pans the crowd and our show begins
Preview : Shane Helms has been trying to motivate Shannon Moore, who has been on a 0-69 losing streak, for weeks to no avail. Tonight Shannon challenges Shane one on one. Shane is puzzled as to what Shannon has done to request the match, with no animosity between the two at all. Shannon has said he finally has confidence in himself and its all thanks to Shane and he wants to face Shane to show him hes the real deal. Has Shannon really been inspired by the former Hurricane?Match : Shane Helms music hits and out comes the former hurricane himself to a nice reaction. Helms looks uncomfortable as he comes out and is still puzzled as to why Shannon wants to face him. Shane steps in the ring and gets on the mic
Shane Helms : Shannon, Im here buddy. Im happy to face you and I hope you truly have the self belief. I know deep down your a great wrestler and we go way back. Come out and give me what you’ve got.
The ring announcer calls out Shannons name and his music plays.... but no sign of Shannon. Shane looks puzzled as does the ring announcer who goes through Shannons intro again, but same result as no Shannon appears. Shane looks even more puzzled now but suddenly the lights go out and the arena is engulfed in darkness. Suddenly.......
The familiar catchphrase of the Hurricane echoes over the PA system and the Hurricanes theme plays through out the arena.
Commentator 2 : What is going on? Why is The Hurricanes music playing? Thats Shane Helms character!
A spotlights begin swirling around the arena as the camera pans over the crowd. Shane Helms, The former Hurricane, is puzzled in the ring as to what exactly is going on. All the spotlights suddenly stop swirling and a single giant spot light is shining up on the rafters, and we see ...The Hurricane??
Commentator 1: is that the Hurricane? Is that Shannon Moore?
It appears to be Shannon Moore and hes kitted out in a red version of The Hurricanes attire. He is posing exactly like the superhero that Shane Helms once portrayed. He then, via glide rail, sails down over the arena and lands in the ring. Shannon is dressed nearly identical to Shane Helms Hurricane, wearing a cape, super hero tights and even has his hair dyed only difference is that hes red and not green.
Commentator 1 : Hes the Red Hurricane!. Is this what Shannon meant last week when he said he was inspired? Has Helms inspired Shannon to become The New Hurricane?
Shannon walks up to Helms in the centre and poses all super hero like with his back straight and chest out before extending his hand. Shane is puzzled and is asking whats all this about? The bell rings and Shannon attacks Helms with a kick to the mid section and right hands. Shannon wastes no time and backs Helms into the corner and goes to work with some hard kicks Shannon then stops and does a Hurricane like spin before delivering a vicious spin kick to the chops of Helms.
Commentator 2 : This new Hurricane has a mean streak in him, I like him better than the old Hurricane already.
The match from here is pretty much the new and improved Shannon Moore being in total control and he hits Helms with a variety of high flying moves, one being a nasty looking pele kick to the face of Shane. Through out the match also, Shannon poses ala the Hurricane after every hard hitting move he dishes out to Helms. The fans don’t approve though.
Commentator 1 : The fans haven’t taken kindly to the Shannon Moores new persona. This Red Hurricane of Moores is more like an evil incarnation of the super hero rather than a homage to Helms character.
Commentator 2 : What? Helms has been trying to inspire Moore for weeks and he should be happy he has. And besides, don’t you know anything about comic book characters, theres loads of versions of Spiderman, The Hulk and Batman. Shannon is just evolving the character.
Shannon whips Helms into the steel steps and Helms screams in agony. Shannon then toses Helms back into the ring and covers him for a near fall. Shannon then gets a rear chin lock on Helms and Shane Helms begins to fade. The crowd get behind Helms as they chant for The Hurricane.
Commentator 1 : The fans are trying to get behind Helms
Commentator 2 : Dont be silly, they are chanting for this new hurricane, not Helms you idiot!
The finishes comes with Helms fighting back and having Shannon on the back foot much to the fans delight. Helms goes for his patented Shining Wizardk finishing move but Shannon avoids it by catching his leg and hitting a spinning leg drag. Helms gets up and hes met with a spinning heel kick by Shannon who then signals his own Shinning Wizard and he connects.
Commentator 1 : Wow what a move. But Shannon isn’t pinning Helms, what gives.
Shannon then lifts up Helms and shouts in his face “Im the Hurricane Now” and delivers vicious looking Vertabreaker to Helms. 1....2....3....
Winner : The Red Hurricane aka Shannon Moore!
Shannon gets up and stands over Helms and poses just like the Hurricane. The fans boo as Shannon Moore grabs a steel chair and waits for Helms to rise up before nailing him square in the face. Shannon drops the steel chair and begins shouting at Helms
Shannon Moore : Im a winner now....just like you. Im a hero now. IM NOT A LOSER ANYMORE! IM .........THE HURRICANE!
Commentator 1 : Shannon Moore has snapped, hes gone off the deep end!
The new Hurricane walks off to the back as the official checks on Shane Helms.Why I went in this direction : Shannon and Moore have always been good friends in real life with Shannon not as successful as Helms. With Helms being mostly well known due to The Hurricane character, it would be plausible for Shannon to try emulate this while at the same time resenting Helms. This match would be the start of this feud after a slow build, Shannon would snap and become the new Hurricane. This new Hurricane could firstly beat Helms like so and then put him on the self the next night. This new Hurricane could go on bit of a winning streak, through underhanded methods, until Shane Helms would eventually return as the Green Original Hurricane and face off in a true battle of good versus evil. This could be a fun feud if handled correctly appealing to the younger fans and older fans alike and the last 4 weeks of TV and the match here would be a great start.We are backstage with Shawn Michaels who challenges for the beyond Chaos Heavyweight title later on tonight.
Shawn Michaels : A few weeks ago Jake, you took everything I had away, my glory, my fans, my faith! You took away my dream to be World Heavyweight Champion in the show premiere! Since then I vowed to do the same to you and tonight I finish the job.
We switch to ringside for our next bout.
Preview : Its the story of the young lion stepping up against the established lion. Thatcher has been a thorn in the side of Nigel for weeks, constantly one upping McGuinness at every opportunity. Thatcher has debatably ‘fluked’ his way to victory against Nigel in recent weeks, culminating in an unexpected shock IC title win over his fellow brit. Can Nigel set things right under his terms of submission rules?Match : Nigel McGuinness is out first with a mic in hand and asks for his music to be cut. Nigel runs down the fans in Memphis, referring to them as hicks for some cheap heel heat before proclaiming to make Thatcher tap and reclaim his title.
He’s interrupted mid spiel by the Intercontinental Champion Thatcher, who walks down with a determined look across his face!
The match starts off with plenty of athletic manoeuvres by both men, with McGuinness winning each early exchange, then posing and taunting the young rookie champ every time he puts him to the mat. The crowd are firmly behind Thatcher as he and McGuinness put on a catch as catch can style master class and the fans lap it up, especially as Thatcher is out wrestling McGuinness much to his frustration
Commentator 1 : Timothy Thatcher is out wrestling one of the best technical wrestlers today.
The Tide soon turns though as Nigel picks apart the injured right arm of Thatcher. Nigel tries to mix it up with some power moves that also focus on injuring the arm further. In one stop Thatcher is caught mid air in a flying cross body attempt only to be caught and given a modified backbreaker with the right arm tucked in. McGuinness continues to work on the arm, softening him up for his submission finisher by some arm wrenches and arm drags and then McGuinness hits a arm crunching belly to belly suplex with Thatchers arm tucked out like before .
Commentator 2 : What did I tell you, McGuinness is too clever to lose. Hes picking that arm apart.
Commentator 1 : What a counter by the Champ, hes not out of this match yet.
The finish comes with Thatcher fighting back and after a come back catches Nigel in a crossface submission only to have to release it early due to the pain in his own arm. Both men crawl into opposite corners and look to get a breather. Thatcher charges at the corner where McGuinness is standing but Nigel moves and Thatcher goes shoulder first into the ring post. Thatcher is in a serious bad way after that and Nigel drags him to the floor and locks in his London Dungeon submission.
Commentator 2 : Ah hes locked in, no escape from this move. Call it ref!
Nigel synchs in his patented submission move as Thatcher yelps in agony. Thatcher is square in the middle of the ring and not a rope in sight. Nigels face is full of intensity as he cranks up the pressure on the wrist and arm of his opponent while the fans get behind the young rookie champ Thatcher. The ref asks Timothy does he submit but he screams ‘NO!’ much to the crowds delight. With the fans behind him, Thatcher begins to slowly inch his body towards the ropes.
Commentator 1 : this is amazing, Thatcher isn’t tapping out and hes fighting out of the London Dungeon.
Thatcher is just about at breaking point but hes very close now to the both rope. Nigel though appears to step it up a gear and leans back that little bit more on the arm of Timothy. Thatcher still fights the hold and is soaking up a lot of pain but hes not moving closer to the ropes now and is fading. Thatcher is asked again by the ref and there is no reply this time as we see Thatcher’s eyes glaze over. Nigel screams at him to tap but Thatchers body just goes limp and he appears to have passed out with the pain. The ref calls for the bell and we have a winner!
Winner and NEW Intercontinental Champion, Nigel McGuinness.
Commentator 1 : Thatcher is out cold. He didn’t submit. What a brave effort from the rookie.
Commentator 2 : It doesn’t matter, Nigel has proved his point. Hes reclaimed his title.
Nigels music plays and he releases the hold. Thatchers body is motionless on the mat and Nigel raises his arms in victory to loud boo’s. Nigel gets passed the title and he celebrates much to the fans dismay and he gives the fans the finger in return. McGuinness leaves with his newly won championship and walks to the back as the ref checks on the fallen Thatcher. Thatcher comes as Nigels music cuts and hes cautiously helped to his feet by the official. As he rises the fans give him a standing ovation of applause in a sign of respect for his effort. Thatcher is clapped by everyone in attendance and he smiles humbly in return as we cut backstage.Why i went in this direction : I always like the young rookie face standing up to the polished established heel. With Thatcher I wanted to get him over without making Nigel look weak. This way Nigel gets the win yet Thatcher remains strong by not submitting. The young rookie is very talented and could have a great career and this feud would get him off to the perfect start. The match itself would have the potential to be a technical master class as Nigel when at the top of his game is genius while Thatcher, who I know not many know (seriously check out his in ring skills, hes quite impressive) can has the potential to be Daniel Bryan good technically speaking. All in all this could steel the show from a mat wrestling point of view.
Preview : The veteran tag team specialists, The Midnight Express have been on top in Beyond Chaos for sometime now, but tonight the face their toughest challenge in the brash cocky New Age Outlaws.
In recent weeks, Billy Gunn and Road Dogg have tormented and belittled the tag champs, claiming to be the future of tag team wrestling. They have sunk low in their attempts to gain an advantage over Stan Lane and Bobby Eaton, from slagging them off in the ring to kidnapping the tag champs and dumping them at an old folk’s home. It appears the Outlaws mean business as most recently they beat up Lane and Eaton, tapped them in a trash dumpster and then dragging the dumpster around the arena car park with The Midnight Express inside.
Will the young guns get their comeuppances, or will they prove they are the new tag team legends of Beyond Chaos at the veterans expense?Match : The fans are informed by the ring announcer that the only way to win is by or submission, or escape from the cage. The cage is locked and its one hell of a hard hitting brawl at first, with The Midnight Express gaining an early advantage. The match soon takes a swing in favour of the Outlaws, who double powerbomb Bobby Eaton into the cage. They then work over Stan Lane as Bobby is hurting bad.
Commentator 1 : Bobby Eaton looks really hurt after that powerbomb by the Outlaws.
Stan lane does his best to fight back but the Outlaws are cunning and take him down quickly as he starts to retaliate. The Outlaws make use of the cage very well through out, slamming Stan Lane into the steel numerous times.
Commentator 2 : the Outlaws have been dominate, time for Eaton and Lane to step aside.
The finish comes as Bobby Eaton recovers and cleans house taking out Billy and Road Dogg with gusto. All four men are trying to escape the cage (Billy and Bobby on onside battling with Stan and Road Dogg on the other) and eventually Stan Lane throws Road Dogg from the top of the cage to the floor below, meaning Road Dogg had escaped.
Commentator 1 : Road Dogg looks hurt but he sout. 1 down for the New Age Outlaws.
Stan Lane then dives off the top of the cage to Road Dogg below in an amazing move and a great spot to watch for the fans.
Commentator 1 : What a leap by Sweet Stan Lane. No fear in him.
Its in vain though as while Lane recovers after his splash, Billy Gunn nails Bobby Eaton hard knocking him off the cage to the ring below and jumps down and both feet touch the floor, the outlaws win.
Winners and New Tag Team Champions : The New Age Outlaws
Billy isn’t through yet as he grabs a steel chair and nails Stan Lane with it across the head. Billy helps his partner up and they stomp the hell out of Lane. They then get the cage door unlocked, Road Dogg grabs a chair and nails Bobby Eaton across the skull too.
Commentator 1 : The match is over, c’mon!
Billy and Road Dogg then drag Stan Lane in to teh ring and the wail on the Midnight Express with the chairs. The Outlaws then gets out of ring and search underneath it. The retrieve a small bag, a 2 large pillow cases and a big bucket from below the ring.
Commentator 1 : What in the hell are these two guys doing. Whats in that bucket?
They re enter the ring and they empty the small bag to reveal pairs of handcuffs! They then handcuff Lane and Eaton to the cage much like a crucifixion.
Commentator 1 : Handcuffs? Enough is enough guys.
Commentator 2 : They are sending a message to all the tag teams across America!
They then take the lid of big bucket and reveal it to be a bucket of black tar!
Commentator 1 : This is too far! These Outlaws have gone too far! This is humiliating!
Commentator 2 : Ladies and Gents, take notice, these Outlaws will become legends!
They then pour the black tar over both former tag champs and then empty the contents of the pillow cases over each of their heads. The contents are white feathers!
Commentator 1 : This is ridiculous! They have tarred and feathered the former champs!
The Midnight Express have been strung up and tarred and feathered by the new tag team champions. The Outlaws pose with their newly won titles, as their music plays, looking very proud of their work as Eaton and Lane hang to the steel covered in black goo and white feathers.Why I went in this direction : This is the age old tale of the cocky young pretenders putting it up against the tough well-respected veteran champs. I liked the idea of them having a young version of the Outlaws taking on the slightly past their prime Midnight Express. I loved the idea of the young heels proving themselves against the older face team on the big stage. I think the Outlaws needed the win to put them over on the big event and they needed to go over in style. Since the M.E. had a long reign on my show, and I felt a title change would freshen the whole division, with the vets being beaten by the young heel team. I felt the younger team needed to make a statement of intent and they did that in convincing fashion after the match, which would make them a big deal. I think the audience would be begging for a change in direction and I think it made sense to give it to them.We are backstage with Beyond Chaos Heavyweight Champion, Jake Roberts and he appears very focused as he speaks!
Jake Roberts : Shawn Michaels, tonight there is no hiding, no running, no praying to god for forgiveness will save you. In that ring its just me and you. The good book says of you want piece you have to prepare for war and tonight Shawn Michaels, I’m prepared for the war to end all wars. Tonight, I get my vengeance!0 -
CHAOS RISING PPV - CONTINUED ......
Preview : Owen Hart has blamed Magnum TA for not winning the Championship Rumble 4 weeks ago and has been hell bent on revenge. He lured Magnum into a false sense of security by faking retirement 3 weeks ago only to slyly attack Magnum when his guard was down. Since then owen has recruited Tyson Kidd and Harry Smith to help him in his battle with Magnum. Magnum has been pushed to breaking point and has his sights set on actually ending Owens career for real! What will happen as these two forces collide?Match : Owen Hart comes out first and his Hart Family stable mates Harry Smith and Tyson Kidd are along side him. Owen and the Harts are boo’d heavily and the fans begin a ‘Nugget’ chant directed at Owen, followed by a ‘We want Magnum’ chant.
Commentator 2 : Whats a Memphis Bull rope Match?
Commentator 1 : Its like a Texas Bull Rope match....only in Memphis.
Commentator 2 : So its just a bull rope match then. The Memphis part adds nothing to it. Shheeesh!
Magnums music hits and he sprints to the ring with the bull rope in hand. Theres a cow bell at the end of the rope and Magnum begins swinging it as he slides into the ring, thus clearing the ring of the Harts. The ref calms Magnum down and then orders Harry and Tyson to the back informing them that they are banned from ringside.
Commentator 2 : what? They just came down for a closer look and to offer moral support to Owen. Does the ref think they will cheat?
Commentator 1 : Well they wont get a chance now. They are out of here!
Both men are tied to each end of the rope as ring announcer informs the crowd of the rules
Ring Announcer : Ladies and Gentlemen, this is a Texas Bullrope Match! The rules are as follows, two wrestlers are placed on opposite ends of a restraint - in this case, a rope. The restraint, and anything tied to it, can be used as a legal weapon, in this case a cowbell.. A disqualification occurs if either wrestler frees themselves from the restraint before the match is won. There is only one way to win:, the first man to touch all four top turnbuckles in succession wins.
The bell rings and Owen and Magnum lock up with Magnum gaining an early advantage. Its not long before Magnum begins whipping Hart with the rope and Owen squeals in pain. Owen tries to run away but hes pulled back by the rope into a hard hitting lariat. The crowd are loving it so far.
Commentator 1 : Its all legal so far, Owen looks like hes in the wrong part of town if you catch my drift.
Commentator 1 : Magnum is busted open here folks, Owen is using the cow bell wisely.
Commentator 2 : Owen is the smartest man in wrestling. Hes a genius!
The finish of the match saw Owen hit a nasty sitdown tombstone piledriver on Magnum much to the horror of the fans in the arena. Owen then unorthodoxly locks in his sharpshooter finisher while wrapping the bull rope around Magnums neck, choking him as hes locked in to the submission move. Magnum taps but it makes no odds as you cant win by submission. Owen keeps Magnum in the hold for about a minute, but it seems like an eternity as Magnums blood covered face riles in pain. Owen lets Magnum go and he begins to touch each turn buckle, dragging Magnum behind him like a dead weight. Owen hits 3 turnbuckles and goes for the fourth but unknown to Owen, Magnum is touching each turnbuckle too. Owen goes for the last one and stops to celebrate prematurely, wooing like in similar fashion to Ric Flair. Its a costly mistake by Owen, as hes stopped by Magnum from hitting the last buckle and pushed to the outside allowing Magnum to touch his fourth and final turnbuckle.
Winner : Magnum TA.
Owen is irate after losing when so close. Magnum celebrates by rising to the second turnbuckle and swinging the bull rope over his head. Owen slinks to the back and can be seen mouthing “this isn’t the end of this!”Why I went in this direction: I believed these two could make a cracking match, with both having older more traditional wrestling styles. Magnum could have been as big as Flair and Dusty had he not been injured so badly in a car accident. Owens the natural heel and Magnum is a natural face so its easy to imagine these two duking it out. I think a Magnum victory would give him the push to challenge the winner of the title match later on and protect him as hes probably my number 2 babyface ( not counting Jarrett whos technically an authority figure / owner). The ending leads them open to continue the feud.
Preview : When Jeff Jarrett, owner of Beyond Chaos, was in need of financial aid, he asked an old enemy for help. As it turned out, that man was Vince McMahon. Though Vince seemed genuine at first, and it looked like they buried the hatchet, Vince would soon show his true colours, only buying in so he could ruin Jarrett.
Since revealing his plan, Vince would have Jarrett kiss his ass, have his friends Abyss and Matt Morgan turn on him and offer to give Jeff a match for control of the company in exchange for a night with Jeffs good wife Karen.
Jeff declined but trying to help her husband out of a hole, Karen took Vince up on his offer.
Vince being Vince, had a catch that he revealed after spending the night with Jeffs wife. Jeff would face Vince in a gauntlet match, along with Abyss and Matt Morgan.
Tonight, Jeff battles against the odds. He must beat two big monsters in order to get his hands on Vince and reclaim his company. Will Jarrett over come adversity, or will Vince and co be too much for Jarrett to take down?Match : ‘No Chance in Hell’ blasts from the PA system and out comes Vince McMahon and his security team of Abyss and Matt Morgan. Vince looks buff and in great shape for his age as is doing an over confident ‘Vince’ power walk to the ring. Vince and Abyss sit at the commentary team and Vince grabs a head set as Matt Morgan steps into the ring being in action first.
Vince McMahon : Hi guys! I thought Id do some commentary like the good ol days until its my turn to get in the ring to beat the crap out of Jarrett!
Commentator 2 : What an honour, calling a match with Vincent Kennedy McMahon! Im humbled sir!
Vince McMahon : As you should be. Now lets call the match and watch as Jarrett gets his ass kicked.
Jeff Jarrett comes out next and the place erupts with easily the loudest pop of the night. Jarrett gets in the ring and mouths at Vince
Jeff Jarrett : Your ass is mine McMahon!
Vince McMahon : Sure it is.
Match 1 : Jeff Jarrett vs Matt Morgan.
As soon as the bell rings, Morgan charges at Jarrett while hes staring Vince down and gains and early advantage. Morgan hits standard big man offence. Clotheslines and big shoulder tackles and a big gorilla press slam!
Vince McMahon : Look at the blue print, what a specimen. Kick his A-double S Matt, c’mon!
Jarrett recovers with a flurry of rights and lefts to the delight of the Memphis crowd. Its short lived as interference by Abyss gives the advantage back to Morgan, and Jarrett is beaten down.
Matt Morgan dominates Jarrett with a big sky high powerbomb for a near fall much to the anger of McMahon whos still on commentary.
Vince McMahon : Finish him damn it!
Commentator 1 : Jarrett is doing well to hang on, but the odds are stacked against him.
Morgan waits in the corner signalling for his Carbon Footprint finisher. Morgan charges at Jeff catches the leg, trips Morgan and slaps on a Figure Four Leg Lock. Vince goes nuts on commentary as Matt Morgan screams in pain and is forced to tap!
Winner : Jeff Jarrett
Vince is irate and nervous watching Jarrett win and orders Abyss in. Abyss quickly goes to worked on Jarrett as Morgan rolls out hurt, stomping away on his former friend. Abyss is taking no prisoners with Jarrett and hits some harsh looking moves over the next 7/8 mins, totally dominating Jeff. Abyss then hits a powerful chokeslam, leaving Jarrett broken on the mat much to the glee of Vince. Jarrett is hurt and Abyss hits his Blackhole Slam finisher and it looks over....
1......
2......
Kick out by Jarrett
Out of no where Jarrett kicks out and Vince goes ballistic.
Vince McMahon : Finish him you son of a bitch, finish him.
Abyss then raises Jarrett up and goes for another Black Hole Slam, but Jarrett reverse this time into a Stroke face plant! Jarrett crawls to pin Abyss...
1....
2,.......
Kickout by Abyss.
Jarrett is hurt and showing signs of exhaustion, as Vince gets even more nervous on commentary. Jarrett then uncharacteristically goes to the top rope. The fans are on the edge of their seat as Jarrett slowly gets to the top. But Abyss is up and climbs to meet Jarrett before he can leap off. Abyss clubs Jeff with hard blows and then grabs his throat with his hand.
Commentator 1 : Oh my god, Abyss is gonna chokeslam Jarrett from the top.
Vince McMahon : Do it, send that son of a bitch to hell!
Abyss hoists Jeff up and sure enough chokeslams him to the mat from the top rope. The ring shakes as the fans gasp and chant ‘holy sh!t, holy sh!t’. Jarrett is broken in half and Abyss is crawling to make a pin.
Vince McMahon: Wait! Stop, hold on, Ive an idea.
Vince drops his headset and grabs a steel chair and slides like into the ring. He talks to Abyss and can he heard yelling ‘do it damn it!’. Abyss shrugs his shoulders and grabs the chair. He awaits jeff to reach his feet and as soon as Jeff is up, he smashes him over the head with the chair! The ref calls for the bell and Abyss gets disqualified!
Winner : Jeff Jarrett
Commentator 1 : What the hell is Vince doing? Abyss has been disqualified and Vince has to face Jeff, one on one.
Abyss continues to wail on Jarrett with the chair and Vince rubs his hands in excitement. The ref orders Abyss to go and he drops the chair which is now dented to bits and grabs teh ref by the collar and chokeslams him too. The ref rolls to the outside and Vince stands over Jarretts motionless body as Abyss leaves.
Commentator 2 : Abyss just softened up Jarrett for Vince, this is Brilliant. Vince wants to be the one to pin Jarrett himself.
Commentator 1 : Its a bold move by Vince, very cocky on the part of McMahon if ya ask me!
Jarrett lays badly hurt on the floor and is spitting up blood, hes most likely bleeding internally. Vince stands over him with a wide eyed evil grin. Vince begins slapping Jarrett and nudging him with his foot. Vince is yelling profusely at Jarrett and seems to be enjoying every minute.
Commentator 1 : Hes just toying with Jarrett, hes been throw hell and back tonight already and now Vince will just pin him easy.
Suddenly though, out runs Jeffs Wife Karen Jarrett and shes got Jarretts trusty weapon of choice, the acoustic guitar in hand. She steps in the ring and Vince spots her.
Commentator 1 : Whats she doing?
Commentator 2 : Probably here to beg Vince to stop or try nail him with that guitar! It wont work tuts!
Vince smiles at Karen and after a long pause she pauses and smiles back, handing him the guitar.
Commentator 1 : What the hell? Karen is handing the guitar to Vince, Vince is going to crush Jarrett with his own guitar, handed to him by Jarrett’s Wife, this is sickening.
Commentator 2 : she knows what side her bread is buttered on, shes a smart gal!
Vince laughs manically as he grabs the acoustic guitar from Karen and turns to face Jeff. Jeff slowly gets to his feet and the tension fills the arena as Vince winds the raise the guitar over his head ready to smash it over Jeffs head. But suddenly Karen drops to her knees and low blows Vince!
Commentator 2 : That jezebel! Shes screwing Vince over.
Vince drops the guitar and clutches his groin as Karen looks on with a vengeful look on her face. Jeff gets up, grabs the acoustic equaliser and smashes it over Vince’s head as hes on his knees holding his hurt private parts. Karen goes to the outside and rolls the ref in to the ring and Jarrett pins Vince. The has barely recovered and but some how slowly counts.
1.....
2......
3!
Winner and 100% owner of Beyond Chaos : JEFF JARRETT!
The crowd erupt and Karen and Jeff stare longingly at each other before embracing in a big hug and an even bigger kiss. Vince is left laying on the matt covered in broken pieces of guitar.
Commentator 1 : Jeff Jarretts personal hell is over and he beats Vince against all the odds!
Event security make there way out and escort Vince out of the ring. Vince tries to get Jarrett but hes dragged away. Jarrett waves bye bye sarcastically at Vince as the billionaire is hauled to the back! The crowd sing ‘na na na na, hey hey hey hey, goodbye’ as Vince disappears behind the curtain. Jarrett and Karen celebrate and both doe his signature strut as the fans lap it up!Why I went in this direction : Two men with real life beef spanning over a decade, its a no brainer. Having Vince turn on Jeff and turn his life upside down was a natural way to get these two to feud. Vince has to lose after ruining Jeffs life week after week. I wanted a happy ending, though I was tempted to have Karen turn on Jarrett but I felt Jeff and Karen deserved a happy ever after after weeks of misery at the hands of Vince.
Preview : This is the story of two stars on two different paths. Jake Roberts arrived in Beyond Chaos on a whirl wind redemption story and the fans took him to their hearts. Shawn Michaels entered the company to much surprise and fan fare believing he was the top draw and star in Beyond Chaos. Shaw was only to be out done in the popularity stakes by Jake Roberts, who then bested him in the ring on his way to winning his first every Heavyweight Title.
Shawn then would taunt Jake about his past, his drink and drug problems but nothing seemed to get to Jake until Shawn stole his pet Snake Damien. In a shock turn of events Shawn would reveal to Jake that he had turned Jakes beloved pet into a pair of Snake Skin Boots! With anger flowing inside both men, these two will explode in our main event! Jake and Shawn both want to kill each other and only they stand in each others way. Will Jake get his big moment on the grandest stage of all by vanquishing his nemeses or will Shawn make good on his word and take away Jakes dreams from him and reach the top of the mountain once more?!Match : Its time for the main event and out first, and not with tradition, The Heavyweight Champion Jake Roberts is out first to a monster pop. Pyros and fireworks go off since its a big show and Jake looks unfazed, as he walks to the ring with his belt over his shoulder looking very focused. Jake sits in the corner of the ring as he awaits the challenger.
Then after a pause, the ‘sexy boy’ theme hits and out comes Shawn Michaels and hes dressed with flare as usual but he still has a cold emotionless look across his face. The commentator then points something out about Shawns entrance attire.
Commentator 1 : Look at Shawns entrance attire....is that...yes, ..its ...its SNAKE SKIN!
Shawn walks to the ring as pyros go off behind him and steps into the ring and uncharacteristically doesn’t do any sort of pandering to the fans. Shawn walks up to Jake and they go nose to nose and HBK urges Jake to take a closer look at his attire and points out that his attire is made from Damien. Jake loses it and goes for Shawn, but he ref is on the spot and he keeps Jake back as Michaels backs off to his corner. .
Commentator 1 : Jake cant touch Shawn until that bell rings, no matter how much his blood is boiling right now!
Jake controls himself and impatiently waits for the bell to ring. The ring announcer goes through the introductions and Shawn looks cold and callous as Jake looks like a man possessed and is raring to go.
Commentator 1 : Can you feel the electricity in the air, Ive butterflies in my stomach, what a main event to end this pay per view.
Commentator 2 : I know, this atmosphere is amazing. The place is buzzing here in Memphis.
The bell finally goes and Jake charges at Shawn like a steam train. Michaels ducks and takes early control with right hands to Jake in the corner. Jake swings for Shawn but Michaels is too quick and dodges the right hand and lands his own punches. Jake swings again and Michaels counters with a sharp jab very much like Floyd Mayweather would. Jake swings again and is gets another jab for his troubles.
Commentator 1 : Jake is not being smart about this and his temper is getting him caught here early on.
Commentator 2 : Jake is letting his emotions get the better of him and a ring general like HBK will take advantage of this.
Jake gets frustrated and Michaels takes early control and the fans hate every minute of it, as he locks Jake in a side head lock. Jake pushes Shawn away but is floored by a shoulder charge on the return. Michaels then bounces off the ropes once more and ducks a clothesline attempt by the rising Roberts and counters with a flying forearm on the way back. Jake gets to his feet and HBK clotheslines Jake over the top to the floor and skins the cat in the process. The fans boo mercifully as Jake hits the floor.
Commentator 1 : Shawn is very much in control so far. Typical HBK right here.
Commentator 2 : Lets remember, Jake has never main evented a big event like this before and with his added emotional baggage, I fear the occasion is getting the better of him.
Jake collects himself on the outside as Shawn taunts him from the ring much to the fans displeasure. Jake again rushes back in to the ring out of anger and gets stomped on by Shawn for his troubles. Its all Shawn so far and he begins to be very underhanded in his assault of Jake, with illegal chokeholds in the corner, breaking the hold at the refs count of 5. Shawn then hits a hard hip toss from the corner and goes for a pin, but uses the ropes for leverage...only to get a two count despite his cheating.
Commentator 1 : HBK will do anything to win. Anything!
Commentator 2 : Shawn is on top here folks and Jake cant get a foot hold in the match.
Jake hasn’t been in the match yet and the fans have had little to cheer for so far, until he ducks a clothesline attempt by Shawn and hits a strong lariat on the return, nearly taking Shawns head off! The fans come alive!
Commentator 1 : What a move by Jake, pardon the pun but there was some venom in that lariat.
Shawn is quickly up and gets spinbustered by Roberts and Jake follows up with some hard lefts and rights while Shawn is on the mat. The fans pop huge for this as Jake unleashes the beast on Shawns face. Jake gets up but he doesn’t let HBK relax though and immediately tries for a big clothesline Michaels avoids it and delivers not one but 3 hard back elbows to the face of Roberts. Roberts is dizzy and he backs into the corner and when he stumbles forward out of it, there is only one thing in the mind of HBK, and thats his Sweet Chin Music Super kick. Shawn attempts it but Jake catches Shawns heel and spins him around and tries for a DDT.......But Shawn pushes Jake away and slides outside to regroup!
Commentator 1 : Shawn and Jake both avoiding each others finishers there. If one of those had connected it could have been game over.
Shawn tries to catch his breath but Jake rushes outside and drags him back in much to the fans approval. Shawn gains advantage though with a thumb to the eyes and gets a telling off by the ref which he ignores. As the match progresses, HBK takes firm control of Jake as we hit the 10 minutes mark. Shawn isn’t focusing on any particular body part but hits a variety of moves to ware down Jake including a spine crushing backbreaker. Shawn then mocks Jake by shouting at him about his dead snake Damien.
Commentator 1 : How low will Shawn Michaels sink ?
This enrages Roberts and he punches Shawn square in the mush out of nowhere. Jake rises and nails HBK with rights and lefts and then nearly takes his head off with a running knee lift 1....2......Kick out by Shawn.
Commentator 1 : Jake with a near fall. It will take more than that to take down Michaels though.
Shawn is dazed and Jake swings Michaels off the ropes and locks in a sleeper on the bounce back. Shawn looks like hes fading and the announcers wonder will he put to sleep by Jake but only moments later he reverses the move and is able to hit Jake with a neat back suplex to perfection. The crowd quietens quickly and are clearly on the edge of their seat as Shawn recovers and stomps on Jake. Shawn then drags Jake up and whips him into the ropes. Shawn bounces off the ropes himself and hits a flying forearm to the skull of Jake. Shawn nips up to the loud disapproval of the fans. Shawn ignores them though and goes up top.
Commentator 1 : Shawn goes up for a flying elbow drop...
Shawns flies through the air majestically but his elbow meets the canvas hard as Jake rolled out of the way. Both men are down and they slowly get back to their feet, with the crowd urging Jake up. Shawn throws a punch but its blocked and Jake nails him with a right of his own. Again Shawn tries to punch Jake but Jake blocks again and once more smashes Shawn in the face. Shawn goes for a third right hand and Jake counters by grabbing Shawns arm, twisting and nailing HBK with a vicious short arm clothesline.
Commentator 1 : Vintage Jake Roberts there.
Jake gets strength from the crowds approval and nails Shawn with an reverse atomic drop and follows it up with a clothesline while Shawn is reeling. Jake swings Michaels off the ropes but Michaels ducks and counters with a flying forearm again to the face of Jake.
Commentator 1 : Shawn Michaels with another counter, he wont quit.
And in what seems like Deja Vu, Shawn nips up for the second time and again the fans boo him heavily. Shawn again goes up top and this time nails the top rope elbow to the heart of Roberts.
Shawn then nips up for a third time and the fans hate him even more and more each time. After hitting the elbow drop, he begins to ‘tune up the band. Shawn walks to the corner and stomps the mat with his foot as he sizes up Jake. Shawn goes for his Super Kick and Jake ducks. Michaels charges at him with a clothesline and both men go over the ropes to the outside, with both men landing hard. With both men down a loud ‘Lets go Jake’ chant erupts.
Commentator 1 : there’s no doubt about which man the fans want to see win.
Both men struggle to there feet and Jake tries to grab Shawn but Shawn elbows Jake to the side of the jaw before whipping him into the unforgiving steel steps. Michaels then turns his attention to the announce table and he begins ripping out the monitors. Michaels goes back to Jake and clubs him some more before whipping Jake into the ringpost. Michaels then drapes Roberts motionless body across the announce table and signals that its over before pointing to the top rope. Michaels then climbs the turnbuckle and takes aim at motionless body of Jake Roberts on the table below.
Commentator 1 : Big risk for Shawn here, hes already 1-1 for top rope moves tonight.
Commentator 2 : Dont be ridiculous, Shawn is a big match player. Hes got this.
The commentators take a step back as Shawn dives off the top and crashes his elbow through Jake with the table collapsing as a result of the force from the move. Both men are motionless as the fans erupt into a ‘this is awesome chant’. The ref hesitantly starts to count both men out!
Commentator 1 : Both men haven’t moved and we are at 3 already by the refs count!
Commentator 2 : Look at the carnage. Shawn looks just as hurt as Jake. What a fighter.
As the ref gets to 6, Shawn begins to stir and slowly gets to his feet. Needing the pin fall or submission, Shawn drags Jake up and rolls him in at the 9 count avoiding the double count out. Shawn covers Jake and the ref counts 1....2......Shoulder up by Jake. Shawn looks frustrated and pleads with the ref that it was 3. Shawn then goes to the well once more and tunes up the band. Jake is taking what seems to be forever to get back to his feet and Shawn looks impatient was he stomps the mat in anticipation. Jake gets to his feet and once more avoids the Super Kick and kicks Shawn in the gut on the return and nails his DDT finisher! Shawns face hits the but Jake hasn’t the recovered enough to make a quick cover. Jake eventually pins Shawn
1.............
2.............
Kick out by Shawn.
Commentator 1 : If Jake was quicker we could of had a winner. What drama.
Jake slowly gets to his feet and signals for a second DDT. He drags Shawn up, but Shawn counters with small package pin out of no where....
1.......
2.......
Kick out at the last by Roberts. Roberts and Shawn both try to get to their feet first but its HBK whos up slightly quicker and he blasts Jake with ‘Sweet Chin Music’.
Commentator 1 : What a super kick by Michaels. Thats it game over. Jake appears to be out cold. Shawn, who looks like still dazed from the DDT, crawls to cover Roberts, he hooks the leg....
1.......
2.......
.... last second kick out by Jake Roberts
Commentator 1 : What! Jake Roberts digs down deep and finds the power to kick out miraculously. Holy Moly!
Commentator 2 : Jakes just prolonging the inevitable.
Shawn and Jake are both looking tired and Shawn looks disillusioned as to what to do next. Shawn gets up and argues with the ref while Jake is still lying on the mat. Shawn signals for yet another Super Kick!
Commentator 1 : If Shawn hits this its lights out surely for Roberts.
Shawn looks drained as he awaits Jake to reach his feet, yet he stomps the mat with such anger. Jake gets up and Shawn makes his move......but Jake drops to his knees and Shawn inadvertently hits the ref instead. Shawn cant believe it and Jake suddenly swings him a round and hits an earth shattering DDT and the arena erupts. Jake covers Michaels but the ref is still out cold following Michaels kick.
Commentator 1 : 1...2.....3..... this match should be over now. How unfortunate for Roberts.
Jake struggles over to the ref and checks on him. Jake cant believe it and neither can the fans in attendance. Jake assists the ref up but it could be his downfall as Shawn crawls over behind Jake and hits a low blow to Roberts. The ref still dazed doesn’t see it and Shawn rolls up Jake and even has a handful of tights.
1......
2......
Kick out by Jake.
Commentator 1 : Amazing kick out by Jake.
Commentator 2 : I have to admit, these men are giving it absolutely everything ladies and gentlemen.
Jake gets up and is caught by Michaels who...HITS A DDT OF HIS OWN!.
Commentator 1 : Jake gets nailed with his own finisher. Michaels makes the cover
1.......
2......
The ref stops the count as Jake gets his foot somehow on the bottom rope. Michaels is in disbelief and argues with the ref once more. This time he decks the ref with a super kick to the jaw and then tosses him to the outside. The fans don’t like this at all.
Commentator 1 : Thats a disqualification right there! Michaels sinks even lower.
Commentator 2 : Well the ref cant disqualify him if hes unconscious now can he.
Shawn slides out of the ring and pushes over the bell ringer, grabbing the chair he was sitting on. Shawn slides back into the ring with the chair in hand and winds it up as he waits for Jake to get to his feet.
Commentator 1 : With ref down, Michaels is playing dirty to win.
Jake gets up and Michaels swings, but Roberts ducks. Jake then counters with a kick to the gut forcing HBK to drop the chair, and Jake follows up by grabbing Michaels by the head and DDTing him head first onto the steel chair. Jake rolls over Michaels and pushes the chair out of the ring. Jake makes the cover as but the ref is down. Another ref though is quick on the scene and makes the count.

..... shoulder up by Michaels
Commentator 1 : What in gods name, what does Jake have to do to pin Shawn.
Commentator 2 : How resilient is HBK, wow hes unbelievable.
Moans and screams are heard from the fans in attendance, as grown men are seen jumping up and down at this classic match unfolding before their eyes. Jake is in disbelief and we can now see that Shawns skull is a crimson mask due to the DDT on the chair. Jake drags Michaels up to his knees and Shawn looks like a broken man whos been through a war as the blood runs down his face. Jake yells at Michaels
Jake Roberts : You brought this on yourself and now you will pay. It didn’t have to come to this. My God have mercy!
Michaels spits blood into Jakes face and looks punch drunk as he does the infamous ‘suck it’ gesture. Jake is furious as he wipes the bloody saliva from his face and he grabs the staggering Michaels. Jake then puts Michaels head in position and hits another vicious DDT. Shawns blood covered head bounces off the canvas and Jake makes pin.

Winner and STILL CHAMPION....JAKE ROBERTS!
The fans erupt and the bell rings as Jake rises to his knees. The match ends at the 40 minute mark and the look on Jakes face says it all as he is exhausted yet happy. Jake looks down at the bloodied, fallen Shawn Michaels, with Michaels bleeding heavily and his blood soaking into the mat. Jakes music plays and confetti falls to the ring below. Its a surreal sight as Michaels blood stained body is being covered in the confetti as he lays motionless. Jake gets handed the title and clutches it with both hands.
Commentator 1 : What a match, what a war! What a moment for Jake Roberts.
Jake doesn’t celebrate much as he looks exhausted from the hard fought match. We go off the air as the confetti continues to rain down on the ring from above and we are left with the image of Jake holding the Heavyweight title tightly as he kneels over the bloodied body of Shawn Michaels. Thats it for the Chaos Rising PPV folks.Why I went in this direction : Well its two great guys battling it out and its a dream match for me. I always thought Jake at least deserved one run at the top and aside from that, it's two great wrestlers who have never feuded before. I liked the idea of Michaels returning as a big draw only to be out done by Jakes popularity and in turn get bit by the jealousy bug. In the match itself, Jake has only just realised his dream and it be easy and pedictable for me to persecute him on the big stage after only winning the gold weeks ago. I felt that after all Shawn has put him through, he had to get clean brutal revenge. And the win would give Jake the big moment he never had (not counting the one Shawn already took from him when he initially won the title).0 -
Welcome ladies and gentlemen to this special Grapplemania Preview Show. We will provide a rundown of the 7 intensely personal encounters on offer for this year’s Grapplemania extravaganza which will come to you live from a sell-out crowd of 72,000 people at the University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Arizona.
Here is our official theme song for this year's PPV (why not have a listen as we run through the seven match-ups)...
Main Event
World Heavyweight Championship
Dynamite King vs Stone Cold Steve Austin (c)Following last season’s successful season, Stone Cold Steve Austin joined the company and quickly gained the title after a bitter feud with the MNG owner. The owner soon departed from public view and placed power in the hands of his new General Manager: Eric Bischoff.
Despite noting his neck was not 100 per cent, Austin was in good spirits heading into the new season - until tragedy struck. The champion was taken out backstage by a mystery assailant with General Manager Bischoff pledging to find the culprit.
Elsewhere, Dynamite Kid found himself in an 8 person tournament to crown this year’s King of the Ring, with the winner facing the champion Austin – if he showed up – at Grapplemania. The masked attacker, however, would again emerge, involving himself in the tournament and attacking more than one participant. Following a false claim by Rikishi that he was the masked man, and a further false claim by him that Nick Bockwinkel had planned it all, it transpired that it was in fact Dynamite Kid that had been the masked attacker of Austin, and with assistance from Bischoff and Rikishi, had done it all to secure the number one contender spot for Grapplemania. Dynamite Kid sure enough went on to win the tournament, again assaulting Austin in the process, and rechristening himself Dynamite King.
Stone Cold would soon set out for revenge, successfully getting his hands on Rikishi, and then Bischoff. Now, the Rattlesnake just has one man left on his list.
For Austin this is a story of revenge; about putting an end to a man who could have ended not just his title reign, but his entire career. He has acknowledged his respect for the challenger, and acknowledged that his greatest Wrestlemania opponent Bret Hart has referred to Dynamite as the greatest ever. He has further admitted his neck is in bad shape and thus called this match the biggest of his career. Nevertheless the defiant champion has vowed he will still hold the gold by the PPV’s end.
For Dynamite King, this is a story of redemption. He has said he feels overlooked, undervalued, underappreciated; he has said he will prove wrong all of the doubters and that he will soon be spoken of in the same breath as the likes of Stone Cold and his former friend Bret Hart. He has pointed out Austin has never lost in the all the years of the Draft, but has vowed to be the first one to break that streak. Dynamite claims he and Austin have a lot in common: both ruthless, sadistic, and uncompromising; both willing to give their bodies and souls in the ring.
This is a clash of two of the hungriest performers in wrestling history. Two men who blazed a trail in the industry in their own distinctive way. A champion feeling his mortality; a challenger fighting for immortality. One hunting for revenge; one hunting for redemption. A once-in-a-lifetime clash of two of the greatest wrestlers in the history of the business. A King vs a Champion. Which man will have his moment?
Mask vs Mask match (2 out of 3 falls)
Rey Mysterio vs Mistico w/KonnanWhen Rey Mysterio entered Monday Night Grappling he felt on top of the world. He talked of his ambition for a title match against Stone Cold, and was excited to be there with his friend Sin Cara.
The attitude of Sin Cara, though, stood in stark contrast. Amidst reports of unhappiness at not being the sole lucha star of in the company, it became clear he had a chip on his shoulder. He blanked Mysterio, shoved him aggressively on one occasion, and caused a distraction which led to Rey’s elimination from the King of the Ring tournament.
It was then revealed that Konnan, Mysterio’s long-time former friend and partner, had been in Sin Cara’s ear the whole time, acting as his representative. He poisoned Sin Cara against Rey and Sin Cara would soon abandon his persona and return to his former one: Mistico.
Mistico blames his disappointing WWE run on Mysterio, believing Konnan’s words that Rey wanted to keep him in his shadow. Mistico would end his friendship with Rey and strike out at him, provoking him to compete in a mask vs mask match at Grapplemania in a 2 out of 3 falls match-up.
This is more than just a friendship turned sour; this is a match that will define the legacies of two of the greatest lucha stars of all time. The lucha match of the century where one man’s future will be changed utterly upon its conclusion.
Which man will walk out with his mask intact, and indeed his place in history?
Women's Championship
Paige (c) vs Sweet SarayaFollowing the close of Grapplemania last year, Paige would join Monday Night Grappling and soon secure the Women’s Title. Extremely popular with the fans, she has cemented herself as the top woman in the company.
Paige’s mother, Sweet Saraya Knight, would soon follow her daughter into the company, amid gossip that she was only there due to her daughter’s influence. Speculation persisted that Saraya was fed up at being dwarfed in popularity by her daughter and at being known only as ‘Paige’s mother’. There were also hints at tension when Saraya helped her daughter Paige to a victory over Paige’s friend Bayley, a move that was not well received by Paige or the fans.
Despite initially seeming to want to put the tension behind her, Saraya showed her true colours by viciously attacking her daughter and telling her she didn’t have what it takes. Saraya believes Paige has become weak and soft as a result of trying to be a heroine for the fans, and she has vowed to come out of her daughter’s shadow by taking her title.
Whilst initially devastated and unable to bring herself to fight her mother, Paige would eventually snap amidst Saraya’s verbal and physical abuse and she has promised that her title will be going nowhere and that she will show her mother that she is just plain better than her at Grapplemania.
For the first time in Draft history a mother and daughter will collide in a feud borne out of jealousy and now brimming with hatred. The prize at stake is the Women’s Championship and the title of being the undisputed top woman of the Knight Dynasty. Only one woman can take the glory but which one will it be?
World Tag Team Titles
Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard (c) vs Kevin & David Von ErichThe Brainbusters Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard returned this year to Monday Night Grappling having proven themselves the dominant team in the company in 2013. It seemed that this year their dominance would prove unquestionable.
Their decision to attack Kerry Von Erich at the request of Tyler Breeze would, however, have unintended consequences. Kerry’s brothers Kevin and David Von Erich showed up and vowed revenge over both men with David scoring a pinfall victory over Arn. The Von Erichs would then speak of their dream to hold tag team gold.
This resulted in a vicious backstage assault on the Von Erichs by the Brainbusters who claimed they weren’t worthy of a tag title shot and were not in their league. Despite this, the Von Erich brothers won a handicap match over Arn, Tully and Breeze - with assistance from brother Kerry - that earned them a shot at the titles at Grapplemania.
Suddenly the Brainbusters no longer seem so dominant. Can the tag team champions prove themselves the greatest tag team in MNG history with another great win on the big stage, or will the Von Erichs, for so long associated with tragedy, finally secure a moment of triumph by crowning themselves the top tag team in the company?
No Holds Barred match: MNG Legends Championship
Tyler Breeze vs Kerry Von Erich (c)The young, cocky ‘Prince Pretty’ Tyler Breeze entered Monday Night Grappling and vowed to make an impact. Reaching new heights of vanity, he took to wearing a mask of glass which he said reflected the ugliness of others back on to them.
Kerry Von Erich, much beloved by the female fans of the company, is a polar opposite of Breeze in character. Humble and a man of the people, Kerry acquired the company’s Legends Title and has worn it with pride for several months.
It would be during the King of the Ring tournament that their paths would cross. Breeze convinced the Brainbusters to take out Von Erich ahead of a qualifying match involving the pair, with Von Erich beaten up so badly he could not even make the match. Breeze has used this controversial win over the champion to secure a title match at Grapplemania.
Breeze further showed his nasty side by capturing on his phone evidence of a secret Kerry had long harboured – that he had his right foot amputated following a car accident and that he now wears a prostethic leg. Breeze subsequently mocked Kerry’s disability. The reveal of the secret left Kerry broken-hearted, embarrassed and ashamed, and he fled in despair; Von Erich, however, would return, informing Breeze that the fans had shown him he need not feel this way. He has said Breeze is not worthy of the Legends Title and has vowed to shut him up at Grapplemania.
This No Holds Barred match promises to be the biggest night of Tyler Breeze’s career. Can he step up against the legendary Von Erich and secure his first title win, or will Kerry make good of his word and make Breeze pay for the humiliation he has put him through?
Career match: Davey Boy must win to get back his and J.R.'s jobs
Davey Boy Smith w/Jim Ross vs Marty Jones w/Eric BischoffThe British Bulldogs entered Monday Night Grapping and despite rumoured disharmony behind the scenes, they quickly became fan favourites. Both men found themselves in the King of the Ring tournament and the hope of Davey Boy Smith was that both men would reach the final, guaranteeing a Bulldog would face Austin at Grapplemania.
Dynamite Kid, of course, had other ideas and ensured Davey Boy was beaten up and taken out of the tournament. Davey Boy, though, would return and provoke Dynamite into a match for the number one contender spot. After an epic, PPV-worthy match, Dynamite proved the superior cousin and afterwards offered Davey Boy a chance to lead his Kingsguard and fight at his right hand.
Davey Boy refused the offer. Then to the surprise of both Bulldogs, British wrestling legend, and mentor of Dynamite and Davey Boy, Marty Jones showed up. Marty suggested things could be put right with an apology – from Davey Boy. To the shock of Davey Boy, Marty revealed himself to be firmly in Dynamite’s camp and demanded Davey Boy swear loyalty to his King. Davey Boy again refused – and was promptly fired by General Manager Eric Bischoff, following a beating by Marty.
Jim Ross, meanwhile, was brought into the company by Bischoff who claimed he wanted J.R. to talk sense into his friend Austin and rein in his rebelliousness. After it emerged Bischoff had been involved in the plot to attack Austin, Bischoff revealed he really wanted J.R. around to humiliate him; and for J.R. to have a ringside seat to watch the demise of his friend. Bischoff even took to referring to J.R. as his pet and took delight in watching him get humiliated.
J.R. though would help Austin extract a measure of revenge against those behind the plot to attack Austin. Bischoff, in retaliation, would fire his ‘pet’. Stone Cold, however, successfully pushed Dynamite Kid’s buttons, insisting that Dynamite’s mentor Marty could not defeat Davey Boy in a match and that if Dynamite thought otherwise, then let Davey Boy fight for his and J.R.’s jobs at the PPV. To Bischoff’s dismay, Dynamite took the bait and asked for the match to be set.
Now at Grapplemania, Marty Jones, the man who revolutionized British wrestling, the man who trained William Regal, and who taught the shoot style of wrestling to the British Bulldogs, faces Davey Boy Smith, a man who helped evolve the style and bring it to the global mainstream; a man who sold out Wembley Stadium in ’92 with 80,000 people cheering him on. It will be mentor vs protégé; icon vs icon; and the stakes could scarcely be higher.
Davey Boy fights for his very career, and the career of Jim Ross. Marty fights for the honour of his King, and the demands of a General Manager who wants rid of two headaches.
Will the master or the apprentice prevail? Will Jim Ross have the last laugh, or will Eric Bischoff once again be grinning like a Cheshire Cat?
Soap 'n' Stink match: If Baywinkel win, Kim eats a bar of soap; if they lose, Bayley takes a Stinkface
Baywinkel (Bayley & Nick Bockwinkel) vs Kim Kardashian & RikishiNick Bockwinkel was the only returning star from last year. A man who in the past has held the Legends Title and the Tag Team Titles, he set his sights on winning the King of the Ring tournament, going on to face and defeat Stone Cold for the World Title, and thus becoming the company’s first ever Grand Slam Champion.
Unfortunately for Bockwinkel, Rikishi would scupper his dream. Falsely accusing him of masterminding the attack on Austin, Bockwinkel would consequently fall victim to Dynamite King’s master plan, being left badly beaten and then defeated.
Meanwhile Kim Kardashian entered the company to much surprise and fanfare. The celebrity’s presence garnered mainstream publicity as did her appearance on the season premiere, which saw Stone Cold lay her out with a Stone Cold Stunner. Upon her return, she sought protection and so hired Rikishi as her bodyguard.
Kim would soon cross paths with MNG’s new signing, Bayley. Angered at Bayley’s remark that she should be ashamed of herself - for taunting a fired Davey Boy Smith - Kim made it her mission to make life miserable for the kind-hearted Bayley. Kim has used vulgar and derogatory language towards her and also displayed lewd behaviour. When Kim ordered Rikishi to give Bayley a Stinkface, Nick Bockwinkel made his return, fighting off the Samoan, and vowing to stop such bullying.
Kardashian has challenged the blossoming friendship and team of Bayley and Bockwinkel (which Bayley has dubbed ‘Baywinkel’) to a match at Grapplemania. Baywinkel, though, offered to raise the stakes by challenging Kim to a ‘Soap ‘n’ Stink’ match. Now if Kim and Rikishi win, Bayley will concede to taking a Stinkface; but if Baywinkel win, Kim must eat a bar of soap.
In contrast to the friendship of Baywinkel, Rikishi and Kim have been increasingly at loggerheads. The Samoan has admitted he’s a mercenary and said he needs money to pay for his family’s medical bills. Kim has been willing to exploit this and at times has treated Rikishi as almost her personal slave. She has slapped him and resorted to name-calling, and has even cut his pay.
In a match that is sure to have the mainstream media’s eyes all over it, can Rikishi and Kim get on the same page and prevail? Or will the harmonious relationship of Baywinkel prove decisive? Which team will be left smiling by the night’s end?
Seven matches will be on offer at this year’s Grapplemania. Scores will be settled; championships will be decided; history will be made. Stay tuned to the Boards.ie network for this exclusive presentation.

Triple H gets into the ring, takes off his crown and entrance attire. The bell sounds and the two wrestlers lock up.

Styles quickly puts an end to the match by putting Triple H into the Styles Clash and gets the pinfall victory.
Styles exits the ring, grabs Triple H’s crown and the mic and slides back into the ring. He puts the crown on and grabs Triple H’s hair to show his face to the crowd.This is your King of Kings. Look at him. He’s done. He should retire and leave this business to the younger generation who show hunger and commitment to this industry. This man is living on past triumphs and it makes me sick to see talent and ability wasted like this.
Styles slams Triple H’s head back to the mat and leaves the ring to a chorus of boos.

That lunatic Al Snow attacked us and we couldn’t finish our match. It’s a disgrace, what are you going to do about it?”Monsoon “Listen lads, I didn’t see what happened last week. I know it’s frustrating not being able to declare a champion but its wrestling, less complaining and more fighting. I’ll reschedule another match for tonight. How about that?”Young “And what about Al Snow? How can you make sure he does not get involved this week?”Monsoon “ Well if you are that concerned about interference from Snow then i’ll put him in the match to make it a triple threat. How about that?”
Daniels and Young are livid, complaining to Gorilla Monsoon that he can’t do that.

Daniels and Young both make their way to the ring with intent. They are not happy with the GM for adding Snow to their title match.

As soon as Snow gets into the ring, the bell sounds and Daniels & Young both go after Snow. They launch hit after hit on Snow until they eventually fire him outside of the ring. This leaves Daniels and Young in the ring to square off against each other. The lock up but then music sounds. It’s The Gangstas music.

As you saw last week The Usos crossed us and they got to experience the bite from this dog and they will never cross us again.”Jimmy “In case you don’t know we are Samoan and we are family.

Match: Michelle McCool vs Layla in a pillow fight
The assistant GM Pamela Anderson is in the ring wearing a frilly bedtime costume and holding a few pillows. She welcomes the two participants down to the ring, hands each of them one of the pillows that are scattered around the ring and allows the ref to start the match while she watches from ringside.
Both McCool and Layla drop their pillows and lock up as they would in a normal match. Anderson quickly pauses the match and urges the two to pick up the pillows and start the pillow fight again. The ref starts the match again and once again McCool and Layla drop their pillows and attempt to lock up as they would in a normal match.

Take my hand and i’ll bring you back to greatness.”
Match: Bobby Roode vs Spike Dudley
Spike Dudley comes down to the ring full of determination and awaits his opponent. Bobby Roode follows him but without his valet Layla, who is recovering from injuries received earlier.

You need to apologise to them next week and give them what they want, a proper match.Pamela: OK i’ll apologise and schedule the match for Spongemania but i’m going to decide the stipulation
Main Event: Sheamus vs Tito Santana
Jeff Hardy makes his way ringside as guest commentator for this match. Tito Santana is first out and he has the bottle of champagne with him. He gives the bottle to Jeff to mind while he is wrestling. Sheamus is next out and as he gets into the ring he sees Hardy and gestures to him that he’s got no chance of beating him for the title. The bell rings and the match starts. Santana, in the initial stages uses his speed to good effect and avoids any power moves that Sheamus attempts. Santana comes off the ropes and hits Sheamus with a running crossbody that brings Sheamus off his feet. Santana follows it up with a few holds to keep Sheamus grounded. After a couple of minutes of this ground attack Sheamus manages to get to his feet and breaks free of Santana. He fires Santana to the ropes and hits him with an Irish Curse to get control of the match. After a quick break to gather his breath, Sheamus begins a slow beat down of Santana. Sheamus goes for a pin but Santana manages to get his leg onto the ropes to break the count. Santana slips out of the ring to get a breather but is followed by Sheamus. Sheamus has Santana in front of the commentator’s table and smiles to Hardy as he hits Santana with a High Cross to the ground. The whole crowd can feel Santana’s pain.
Bobby Roode comes out ringside and goes straight to the commentator’s table to confront Hardy as he knows he has the bottle of champagne. Sheamus rolls Santana back into the ring and is ready to finish the match off. Hardy pushes Roode away and Roode accidentally collides with Sheamus. Sheamus doesn’t like this, gives Roode a Brogue kick and then grabs Roode and sends him flying over the commentators table into Hardy. Sheamus doesn’t realise that the ref has been counting and before he can get back into the ring he is counted out and Santana is declared the winner. Santana quickly grabs the bottle of champagne and exits the ring. Sheamus is livid and turns his anger on Hardy. He grabs Hardy and sends him into the ring. Hardy comes off the ropes and slides into Sheamus before he can get into the ring. He comes off the ropes again and this time flies through the ropes into Sheamus. The crowd are going crazy and Hardy milks the applause but his joy is short lived as Sheamus gets the upper hand and delivers a Brogue kick to Hardy. Sheamus rolls Hardy into the ring and hits him with a High Cross that leaves Hardy out of it in the middle of the ring. Sheamus places his foot on Hardy’s chest and raises his arms in celebration. Hardy doesn’t have an answer to Sheamus’s power.0 -

SUPREMACY
A video recap shows the vicious nature of Sycho Sid as he beats up Marufuji before cutting to the heroics of KENTA during the Fatal-4-Way main event which culminated in him pinning MVP.
Pyro ignites on the stage and cameras cut to the announce team.
Petey: “Welcome everybody to MWA Supremacy. We are just 3 weeks away from WrestleRama II and tonight we will have the contract signing for our main event. Together in the ring for the first time will be World Heavyweight Champion Sycho Sid and the challenger from Japan, KENTA.”
Dave: “And it's being officiated by none other than our amazing boss, the baddest man on the planet, Mr Mike Tyson. I'm expecting fireworks Petey.”
Petey: “There's more chance of the corrupt wrestling voting panel not giving Monday Night Grappling the award for best product than this contract signing going smoothly.”
Dave: “Unfortunately it means Mr Tyson has his massive hands full on the business side of things tonight so it will just be myself and Petey on commentary. Folks if you want to change the channel now I won't hold it against ya.”Sabre & Scurrl come out to the ring as the MWA Tag Team Champions for the first time on only their second night in the company.
Scurll: “I'm sure you don't need reminding of who we are but I'm Marty Scurll and this is Zack Sabre Jr. And we are the Leaders of the New School, your Tag Team Champions.”
Sabre: “Last week we promised that we would be the names on everyone's lips..”
Scurll: “That's not all we were, am I right ladies?”
Sabre: “You'll have to excuse my partner, he fancies himself a hell of a lot more than these supposed ladies.”
Scurll: “What can I say, I bring the party where ever I go. And last week we brought the party to MWA.”
Sabre: “This has been the proudest week of our lives. It feels like we've finally made a major impact in professional wrestling.”
Snuka & Orndorff come out to the ring.
Snuka: “We're not here to crash your party, we're here to congratulate you on doing something no other team was able to do for the last 10 months; taking those titles away from us.”
Orndorff: “But don't think getting to the top of the mountain is the hard part, not being eaten by the mountain lions once you're there is the real test. I should know, I've main evented WrestleMania.”
Snuka: We've fended off those lions for 10 months and now we're suddenly the predators once more. And we're already hungry. We want our rematch and we want it tonight!”
The crowd's cheers are cut short by Montel Vontavious Porter's music.
MVP: “HEY HOLD UP! Surely the MVP of the MWA should have some gold around his waist. He's certainly more deserving than a couple of has-beens and a pair of wet blankets that never deserved their shot in the first place. After being screwed out of a title shot last week I refuse to let it happen again tonight.”
Orndorff: “And how are you gonna manage that on your own?”
MVP: “Well it just so happens that MWA's most valuable person is bringing the Franchise to WrestleRama and going home as Tag Team Champions.”
Shane Douglas' music hits and he joins MVP on the stage.
Douglas: “Let me ask you a question: what are the two most important things in any business? The Franchise & the MVP”.
They walk down to the ring and start pushing Snuka & Orndorff. Sabre & Scurrl get involved and a brawl looks likely when Mike Tyson walks out.
Tyson: "Nobody is getting a title match tonight. I've got too many things to do running this show already. Instead it's gonna be MVP & Shane Douglas against Jimmy Snuka & Paul Orndorff and the winner goes to WrestleRama to fight those two British boys for the Tag Team Championship."Snuka, Orndorff, Sabre & Scurll are backstage after the break.
Snuka & Orndorff: “You shouldn't have gotten involved out there. Neither of you are to show your faces at ringside during the match later. Let the big boys do what we do best.”
Sabre & Scurll: “Nobody tells the Leaders of the New School what to do. Maybe you should remember who beat who last week before talking about 'big boys'.”
Sabre & Scurrl pat their titles and walk off.Vs.Ken Shamrock vs Tony Atlas
Both men lock up and try to outpower each other but Atlas wins the battle and forces Ken into the corner. Atlas stays on top with some power moves but Shamrock starts kicking the legs and takes the big man down. Then we hear a booming voice over the speakers.
“Ladies & gentlemen my name is AW and I am the owner of the greatest talent agency in all of wrestling. I said I am the owner of the greatest talent agency in all of wrestling – All World Promotions.” Abraham Washington walks onto the stage and sits on a leather chair. Shamrock gets distracted looking at AW who says “Ken Shamrock, All World Promotions is presenting you with the opportunity of a lifetime. Next week you are going to be my guest on the Abraham Washington Show.”
Atlas attacks Shamrock from behind and Ken falls to the outside. This only pisses Shamrock off and he grabs a chair from under the ring and hits Atlas with it. After the bell Shamrock hits Atlas 6 times before the chair finally breaks.
Winner: Tony Atlas via Disqualification
Petey: "That's two of the last 3 weeks Ken Shamrock has cost himself the match and he doesn't even seem to care."
Dave: "That's because he's a thug and a moron Petey and he doesn't belong in this fine establishment."Adam Cole is backstage talking himself up to a female member of staff.
Cole: "You know baby, I'm the real Best in the World in more than one wa..."
Suddenly Cole is attacked by Intercontinental Champion Tazz. Cole manages to get behind the woman whom he uses as a shield against an irate Tazz. Finally Cole pushes her into Tazz and runs away while Tazz pushes her aside and pursues.Vs.Dean Ambrose vs Kevin Sullivan
Ambrose is full of rage from the start and is lucky not to be disqualified multiple times for ignoring referee breaks in the corner.
“OOWWW” Suddenly Dude Love appears on the tron.
Dude: “Dean you need to chill out and leave my main man Mick Foley alone. It's not Mick's fault you couldn't keep up with the grooviest man in wrestling's close friend.”
Ambrose gets rolled up by Sullivan but kicks out and hits a low blow on his opponent which the referee amazingly misses. Ambrose gets a mic.
Ambrose: “You wanna see me keep up? You wanna see me go extreme? I swear to god I will kill this son of a b*tch and prove to everybody in this audience just how much Mick Foley ruined this business.”
Ambrose hits Dirty Deeds and pins Sullivan for the win. He then clotheslines the referee, gets lighter fluid out from under the ring and sprays it onto Sullivan. He stands over him, lights a match and holds it up high.
Ambrose: “Just try and convince me to stop”.
Dude Love starts saying things completely irrelevant to the situation.
Dude: “Why yes Dean, the women do love some Dude. Heh heh OWWWW.”
Ambrose is flustered & starts shouting at the tron; “Foley you better answer me you son of a bi...” Suddenly Ambrose is attacked from behind... by Cactus Jack. Jack is wailing on Ambrose who eventually manages to escape from the ring. Jack picks up the mic and shouts “BANG BANG” as a livid Ambrose storms up the ramp ripping posters.Tazz is pacing around a shopping centre. He is knocking over shelves, ripping down clothes & dressing room curtains. Adam Cole is standing amongst a group of mannequins but Tazz doesn't seem to notice and walks off. Cole breathes a sigh of relief and goes to leave but gets tackled from behind by Tazz through all the mannequins. Tazz grabs a broken mannequin leg and beats the sh!t out of Cole with it. He attempts to lock on the Tazzmission but as Cole is struggling against it 10 members of security claw them apart & one fires his taser at Tazz, incapacitating him. In all the commotion Cole manages to escape.Vs.Snuka & Orndorff vs The Most Valuable Franchise
The match is pretty even when Sabre & Scurll walk onto the stage and stand watching. A few minutes pass when suddenly the Tag Team Champions are attacked from behind by Gene & Ole Anderson. The Minnesota Wrecking Crew stomp both men repeatedly before smashing Sabre through the Tron's glass. Scurll attempts a fightback but is caught by a vicious chop before being thrown off the stage and through a couple of tables with electronic equipment set up below. The fight distracts Jimmy Snuka who gets taken out by Shane Douglas. Orndorff manages to break the pin but Gene & Ole make their way down to the ring and attack both Orndorff & Douglas. They beat both men down, Snuka & MVP launch an assault but they get taken out as well. With all 4 competitors down the match ends in a DQ Draw. The Anderson's trade Irish Whipping the 4 men into clotheslines to add insult to injury.Mike Tyson walks out the ring where a table & 3 chairs have been set up. He is handed a microphone and takes his seat in the middle of the table.
KENTA comes out next, he bows to Tyson who responds with a puzzled look. KENTA sits in the seat on the right as MWA World Heavyweight Champion
Sycho Sid walks down casually. Sid & Tyson shake hands & Sid takes the remaining seat.
Tyson: “Now I want this signing to go cleanly which is why I'm having it in the ring. This will not descend into chaos; you both take a leaf outta my book. I never tried to intimidate nobody before a fight. I intimidate people when I hit them and I want the same from you. This contract says this will be a singles match for the World Heavyweight Championship. Have you anything to say before signing the contract. Little Chinese boy?”
KENTA is staring straight at Sid who looks nonplussed about the signing. KENTA doesn't even react to Tyson's blatant ignorance.
KENTA: “You pay for hurting Marufuji Naomichi. He my friend. At WrestleRama I take your friend; MWA World Heavyweight Championship.”
KENTA signs the contract and slides it across the table.
Tyson: “Sid? Tell this guy how you gonna knock him out.”
Sid: “KENTA you're half the man I am. So basic science says you have half the brain I have and you signing this contract proves it. You don't have a chance against me. I enjoyed hurting your little friend and now I'm going to enjoy hurting you.”
Sid signs the contract and stands up aggressively. KENTA gets to his feet immediately ready for a fight. Mike Tyson stands between them, arms outstretched. Sid starts to laugh.
Tyson: “KENTA sit down. Wait til the match before getting your ass beat.”
KENTA shoves Tyson but is immediately hit with a Big Boot by Sid. Sid lifts KENTA up and Powerbombs him through the table. Sid picks up the contract, laughs and throws in down on KENTA as the show goes off the air.0 -
