Dayton, Ohio
Attendance: 8,189
Dayton got it's first taste of TWF action since last June and it was the first trip ever into Hara arena for the PrimeTime division.
Akio vs. Paul London These two opened up with quite possibly the best match in the history of Uprising. For right at 13 minutes, fans were captivated by the action these two displayed. London caught Akio with his dropsault and then came off the top rope with the 450 but Akio got his knees up to block it. He then locked in a triangle hold and London had to tap out. Kid Gundam vs. Luther Reigns Gundam was overmatched by the massive Reigns but he did all he could to get a victory. Reigns lifted Gundam into the air with a backbody drop but Gundam landed on his feet, only to be smashed by a running kick to the face and Luther covered him for the 3 count. Non-Title Match Rick Clark vs. Hardcore Champ Edge There were no hardcore rules in effect in this one but Edge was prepared for whatever Clark threw his way. After surviving an assault in which Clark took him to the mat and just pounded on him UFC style, Edge avoided him charging into the corner and then grabbed him around the head, hitting the "Edge-a-cution" for the win. But after the match, Orlando Jordan, Axl Irvin's crony, came out and handed out a heavy beating to Edge, leaving him lying in the ring as Uprising came to a close. PRIMETIME GOES LIVE
AS PRIMETIME COMES ON THE AIR, THE CAMERA IS READILY FOCUSED ON SHANE McMAHON, WHO IS AT HIS DESK. Shane McMahon: "Good evening, and thank you all for tuning in to the top wrestling program in the world today. As many of you know, WrestleMania six is just around the corner. So I wanted to take this oppurtunity to anounced that at WrestleMania, there will be a six man tag. But not just any six man tag, one with the rights to the New Breed on the line. And tonight, in that very ring, we are going to start the New Breed Challenge, a series of one on one matches in which the team that garners the most victories will be given the oppurtunity to name the stipulation for that six man tag team match at WrestleMania. So hold onto your seats, cause the challenge starts tonight with Chris Tirpak versus......... Heidenreich"! JUST THEN, THERE IS A KNOCK AT SHANE's DOOR AND THE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION SHANE THOMPSON ENTERS, HOLDING HIS TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. Shane Thompson: "Did I hear something about a challenge"? McMahon: "As a matter of fact, you did. Tonight........ Thompson: "Ya know, I could care less about the New Breed, well, all except for one of them. So Shane, if you would, take the number one contender's spot out of the match between Orton and Haas tonight..... because I've already decided who I'm defending this title against at WrestleMania". THOMPSON PRESENTS A DOCUMENT WITH BOTH THE PRIMETIME AND WRESTLEMANIA 6 LOGOS ON IT. McMahon: "If this is the match you want...... then so be it". THE SHOT GOES TO THE BROADCAST POSITION WHERE MICHAEL COLE AND JESSE VENTURA ARE SHOWN. Michael Cole: "Wait a minute, did Shane Thompson just change that match"? Jesse Ventura: "It appears Shane-O had no choice Michael, Thompson presented a WrestleMania contract with someone's name on it"! Cole: "Well a huge show in store tonight folks so stick around..... it's PrimeTime"! THE BLACK AND WHITE MONTAGE STARTS UP AS "RAP SUPERSTAR" HITS. AFTER ROLLING FOR A BIT, THE MONTAGE EVENTUALLY GOES INTO COLOR SHOTS, SHOWING NEW HIGHLIGHT CLIPS OF SYCHOTIC, MIKE AUSTIN AND JASON TIGER OLIVER. THE HARA ARENA IS SHOWN AGAIN AND A.J. STYLES IS ON HIS WAY TO THE RING TO A GOOD CHEER. Cole: "Shane McMahon said it at the top of the show, WrestleMania is right around the corner and with already one huge match signed, it's gonna be a huge event Jesse"! Ventura: "There's no doubt about that Michael, WrestleMania brings out the best in any wrestler and I look forward to some terrific action here on PrimeTime"! BATISTA's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MORE FAVORABLE RESPONSE THAN HE's USED TO. Cole: "A very tough matchup here for A.J. Styles, Batista is as strong a force as we've ever seen here in the TWF Jesse"! Ventura: "A.J. Styles felt the force of the Batista Bomb on TWF Main Event and he's gonna have to wrestle a flawless match to avoid it tonight"! Cole: "A.J. Styles is a world class competitor though, don't write him off too easily". Batista vs. A.J. Styles The bell sounded and Styles baited Batista in and when he lunged at him, Styles moved and kicked him in the back of the legs. He repeated the ploy again and then hit the ropes, catching the big man with a flying clothesline. But it didn't take him off his feet so he went for a dropkick, only to have Batista swat him away and then went for a big elbow drop. But Styles rolled away and got up, hitting Batista with a couple right hands. He then hopped up to the middle turnbuckle and flew off but Batista caught him in a bear hug, squeezing with all the pressure he could apply. The much smaller Styles was fading fast and referee Mike Enos moved in to check his arm. The right arm dropped twice but on the third attempt, Styles showed some heart but holding it up and breaking the hold with back to back ear claps. He then dropkicked Batista into the corner and charged in. Batista caught him and set him on the top turnbuckle but Styles kicked him twice right in the face. He then jumped off with an attack but Batista caught him again and threw him into the ring ropes. Styles bounced back and avoided a backswing but after he hit the other side, Batista erupted with a clothesline that almost took his head off and Batista covered him as Enos made the 3 count. Match Time: 7:28 Ventura: "And that's all she wrote Michael, Styles might need medical attention"! ENOS RAISED THE HAND OF BATISTA BUT JUST THEN, THE SOUND OF BREAKING GLASS WAS HEARD AND IT LED INTO THE MUSIC OF "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN, WHICH SENT THE CROWD INTO A FRENZIED CHEER. Cole: "Wait a minute! Do you hear that"?! Ventura: "Of course I do Michael and look at Batista, he's had it with this"! BATISTA STOMPED THE MAT AND KICKED THE RING ROPES IN ANGER AS THE SHOT FADED OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK....... A COMMERCIAL FOR POLARIS IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR SUBWAY. RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE AREA...... AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, CAMERAS IN THE BACK CATCH RIC FLAIR DOING ALL HE CAN TO SEPERATE BATISTA AND MIKE AUSTIN. Ric Flair: "Guys! Guys, this is crazy"! Batista: "I told him to forget about Stone Cold"! Flair: "Dave, Dave, calm down man"! Mike Austin: "Get him back Ric, keep him back! Listen to me..... I personally promise that next week, you won't have to listen to Steve's music anymore.... cause he'll be here in person"! BATISTA GETS IN AUSTIN's FACE. Batista: "He better". BATISTA WALKS AWAY. Flair: "Mike, are you sure about that"? THE SHOT GOES BACK TO RINGSIDE WHERE NICK DINSMORE IS COMING OUT, SLAPPING HANDS WITH FANS. Cole: "And ya know, I can't blame Batista! It wasn't him who demanded Stone Cold show his face back here in the TWF"! Ventura: "Well according to his nephew, he's gonna be here next week"! ROME's MUSIC HITS AND HE MARCHES DOWN THE AISLE TO A MIXED RESPONSE. Cole: "Tag team action coming up here next on PrimeTime as you see the mighty Rome making his way to the ring to team with Nick Dinsmore who will get a chance here to get his hands on his former tag team partner"! RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT, BEATING HIS CHEST, FOLLOWED BY BOTH TED DIBIASE AND ROB CONWAY. Ventura: "The Million Dollar Team was a fine tuned, well managed unit Michael and Dinsmore threw that away to try and go out on his own". Cole: "Well if memory serves me well, it was Conway who wanted to go solo first. But aside from that, how 'bout the developing situation between Rome and Rhyno"? Ventura: "Well Rome may be the bench press champion of the middle east but Rhyno is a former TWF Universal champion and my money's on Rhyno whenever that one takes place"! Rome and Nick Dinsmore vs. Rhyno and Rob Conway w/ Ted Dibiase The match started between Rhyno and Dinsmore but it didn't take long for things to break down and referee Chris Kay to lose control. Rome came in and clotheslined Conway out of the ring and then picked Rhyno up, dropping him with an overhead powerslam. Kay forced Rome back to his corner and Conway used the bottom ring rope to choke Dinsmore. Rhyno then kept the pressure on Dinsmore with a spinebuster and a powerslam but he couldn't put him away. Finally, Dinsmore kicked Rhyno in the head when he put his head down too soon off an irish whip and fell to the mat himself after hitting a running back elbow. But just as he finally made the tag to Rome, Dibiase got on the apron to distract Kay. Rome came in, tearing through Rhyno with 2 clotheslines and a running shoulder tackle. Finally, Kay turned around and forced Rome to his corner again since he didn't see the tag. But as Conway and Rhyno performed another illegal double team, he came back in. Rome knocked Conway off the apron with a headbutt and then went for a shuffle kick on Rhyno, only to drill his own partner when he moved. Conway and Dibiase each them grabbed one of Rome's legs and tripped him up, dragging him to the floor. In the ring, Rhyno trampled over Dinsmore with the "Gore" as Kay made the 3 count. Match Time: 8:39 ROME GOT TO HIS FEET AND WAS VISIBLY ANGRY AS KAY RAISED RHYNO AND CONWAY's ARMS. Cole: "Well what can you say, three men will always beat two"! Ventura: "Especially when you got a guy that takes out his own man"! Cole: "There's more to this than what we just saw though Jesse, Rome will make sure he gets Rhyno all to himself sooner or later"! Ventura: "And in all honesty Michael, I have been nothing but impressed with Rome to this point. But I'm starting to feel he's one of those muscle bound idiot types who doesn't have what it takes mentally to beat a former champion like the manbeast"! RAMPAGE REPLAY GOES BACK TO CODE RED AND SHOWS GARRISON CADE BEING LOADED INTO AN AMBULANCE AFTER AN ATTACK FOLLOWED BY THE DEADPOOL DEFEATING SHAWN MICHAELS AND MARK JINDRAK IN WHAT BECAME A HANDICAP MATCH. BACK TO THE ACTION, ESSA RIOS IS SHOWN MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING TO MOSTLY CHEERS. Cole: "TWF Code Red a very successful event for Rampage Jesse but we're not missing a beat tonight! Still to come is round one of the New Breed challenge set up by Shane McMahon"! Ventura: "My money is on Heidenreich in that one Michael, I think he's gonna be too much for Tirpak tonight". "TEACH ME" BY GROOVENICS HITS AND SYCHOTIC COMES TO THE RING TO A DECENT OVATION. Cole: "You're certainly entitled to that opinion but I would venture to guess that it's an unpopular one. Sychotic on his way out here now and there is so much to like about this guy Jesse". Ventura: "He brings an element to the lightheavyweight division the likes I don't believe we've ever seen here in the TWF Michael and I think tonight will just be another example of that"! Cole: "He's in there with one of the finest wrestlers to ever come out of Mexico though and I think it could go either way"! Essa Rios vs. Sychotic Both men showed respect for the other in a match that truly had it all. After a tie up produced a stalemate, Sychotic hit the ropes but Rios was waiting with a double back thrust to the throat. He tried to keep Sychotic on the mat as he was definitely the stronger of the two but Sychotic got up and kicked Rios in the gut, shooting him to the corner before hitting a bicycle kick. As Rios stumbled out of the corner, Sychotic hit him with a spinning wheel kick that caught him flush in the mouth and got him a long 2 count. Sychotic pulled him up and lifted him in a scoop position, putting him back down with a spinning Michinoku Driver but Rios just kicked out again. Sychotic whipped him to the corner and came in but Rios got a boot in his face and came off the middle turnbuckle with a flying DDT. Sychotic looked very hurt as Rios rolled on top of him, but he failed to hook a leg and only got a 2 count. Rios stayed in control, slowing the pace way down, something he's not accustomed to doing. Rios felt like he had the match totally in his favor and he set Sychotic up on the top rope, climbing up himself. But when he tried to hit a frankensteiner, an alert Sychotic used the top rope to block it. Rios fell hard on his neck and shoulders and that led to Sychotic coming off the top rope with the 680, hitting it perfectly to get the 3 count. Match Time: 10:00 Cole: "Oh wow! Jesse, that is perhaps the most beautiful manuever in TWF history"! Ventura: "The six eighty is incredible Michael, something I don't think any superstar worldwide can duplicate"! Cole: "Sychotic's got the mic now". Sychotic: "Good match Essa..... I mean that man. And it's competition like that that drives me! So that's why I have come up with an idea to make WrestleMania six that much better"! Ventura: "What's he gettin' at here"? Sychotic: "I am proposing a Lightheavyweight Invitational! Shane McMahon, make the calls, set it up. Whether you're a TWF superstar or not! WrestleMania is the top event in the world today and I want to compete against the top lightheavyweights the world has to offer"! WITH THAT, "TEACH ME" PLAYS AGAIN AND SYCHOTIC GIVES THE MIC BACK TO HOWARD FINKEL BEFORE HEADING TO THE BACK TO A BIG CHEER. Cole: "Well we all know you're a huge fan of lightheavyweights here on PrimeTime Jess, what about what we just heard"? Ventura: "I think it's one hell of an idea and I like it even more for the fact that a rookie is making the challenge"! BACKSTAGE.... SHANE McMAHON's OFFICE...... SHANE IS IN HIS OFFICE, TALKING ON THE PHONE. Shane: "Did you just hear that? Yeah, the challenge Sychotic made? JUST THEN, STRIFE AND BAHAMUT ENTER THE ROOM. Oh, hey I gotta go. SHANE HANGS UP HIS PHONE. What uh, what can I do for you guys"? Strife: "Jamal and Rosey........... Bahamut: "Do we have the match? The match against those chumps at WrestleMania"? Shane: "I signed my side of the contract today, you have your match against Jamal and Rosey at WrestleMania". STRIFE LEANS IN AND LOOKS SHANE DEAD IN THE EYES. Strife: "Good..... cause we're hungry". STRIFE AND BAHAMUT LEAVE THE OFFICE AS THE SHOT FADES OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK...... A COMMERCIAL FOR GATORADE IS SHOWN FOLLLOWED BY A FOX PROGRAMMING AD FOR AMERICAN IDOL. THE SHOT OPENS ON THE SET OF "THE APPRENTICE" AND DONALD TRUMP ENTERS THE ROOM AND SLAPS A FILE FOLDER ONTO A TABLE, PULLING UP A CHAIR. Donald Trump: "I'm afraid I have some unsettling news. It seems that WrestleMania is coming up and I'm afraid you don't realize what kind of oppurtunity you have. This is the event where heroes are made..... where legends are born. Failure is not an option. Is this something you comprehend"? THE CAMERA PANS OVER TO SHOW JOHN CENA. John Cena: "Very well sir, failure is not in my vocabulary". Trump: "Very well then, because if you were to fail..... you might hear the words you're....... JUST THEN, THE DOOR TO THE ROOM OPENS AND VINCE McMAHON, TWF OWNER ENTERS. Vince McMahon: "Don't say it Donald.... we all know that's my catchphrase". TRUMP STANDS UP TO VINCE. Trump: "Is that so"? JOHN CENA GETS UP. Cena: "Guys! Ya'll ain't gonna scrap over a catchphrase! Now both of you get the hell out my office"! McMAHON AND TRUMP QUICKLY EXIT THE ROOM AND SHUT THE DOOR. ON THE OTHER SIDE IS JOHN CENA's NAME INSIDE A GOLD STAR. McMahon: "Jerk". Trump: "I agree, some guys, all they care about is their success". Audio voiceover: "TWF WrestleMania six..... The Gold Standard! Anything less, it's probably a different show"! RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE AREA....... PRIMETIME RETURNS TO SHOW JORDAN ROCKWELL SIGNING A BUNCH OF PHOTOS FOR SOME LUCKY FANS WHEN DYLAN JANSENS COMES UP.
Dylan Jansens: "Hey man, I've been looking all over for you".
Jordan Rockwell: "What's up"?
Jansens: "I just wanted to let you know that even though I am on the hunt to get the Universal title back, that you and the guys can count on me with this whole Sean O'Haire thing, cause I'm still part of the family, no matter what".
THE TWO BASH FISTS.
Rockwell: "I appreciate that and funny thing you mention it, cause I got something in mind for the last week of this whole New Breed challenge".
Jansens: "Oh yeah, what's that"?
Rockwell stands up and moves in closer to Jansens so that only he can hear what he is saying. Jansens gets a smile on his face from ear to ear as he apparently likes what he is being told.
Jansens: "Oh you can count me in..... no doubt".
Rockwell: "I knew I could! Now let's sit back and watch Tirpak get round one for us".
They bash fists again and walk off. AT RINGSIDE, "DANGEROUS POLICTICS" HITS AND HEIDENREICH COMES OUT, UNSETTLING THE CROWD A BIT. Cole: "We are ready for round one of the New Breed Challenge and it sounds to me Jesse like Jordan Rockwell has got this thing well planned out"! Ventura: "He better Cole, because think about it, Sean O'Haire has got exactly what he wants. He has a chance to rip the New Breed right away from Rockwell, something we know would devastate him". "TNT" BY AC/DC HITS AND CHRIS TIRPAK COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP. Cole: "He does, but if I know Rockwell, he is going to come out, guns drawn! Jordan Rockwell gave the New Breed life! It's his brain child and he's not about to allow these imposters to come and take it"! Ventura: "Well if Heidenreich can beat Tirpak here, the imposters, as you call them, will be one step closer to doing just that"! Cole: "Fans get ready for two of the hardest hitters here on PrimeTime to lock horns here and the stakes couldn't be higher for their groups"! New Breed Challenge: Round 1 Heidenreich vs. Chris Tirpak Both men got nose to nose and Heidenreich was slightly taller. But Tirpak threw the first punch, in fact the first three. But all he did was budge Heidenreich a little. When he went for the irish whip, Heidenreich blocked it and pulled him right into a short arm clothesline. Using his very untechnical attack style, Heidenreich wore Tirpak down with a thorough beating that included stomps to the chest and many punches to the head. If there was one thing that Heidenreich really beat Tirpak up with, it was the way he threw his punches, making Tirpak look like a punching bag. After dominating Tirpak, Heidenreich picked him up and dropped him with a scrapbuster slam to get the 1..........2.........., but referee Brian Hebner's count stopped. Heidenreich got up in Hebner's face but Hebner pointed out that Tirpak got his foot on the bottom rope to stop the count. Tirpak then got up, spun Heidenreich around and hit him with 2 forearm shivers to the chest. He then went for an irish whip but Heidenreich reversed it right into a kneelift. He then shot Tirpak hard into the corner and followed in with a clothesline. But Tirpak avoided it and quickly rolled the big man up with a schoolboy as Hebner made the 3 count. Match Time: 6:58 Ventura: "What?! I don't think he got three Cole"! "TNT" PLAYED AGAIN AND THE CROWD LOUDLY CHEERED AS TIRPAK WALKED UP THE RAMP LOOKING BACK AT HEIDENREICH WITH BOTH ARMS IN THE AIR. HEIDENREICH PULLED ONE OF HIS BOOTS OFF AND LAUNCHED IT INTO THE AIR. Cole: "Well it wasn't the New Jersey Turnpike, but it did get Tirpak a three count"! Ventura: "Look at Heidenreich.... he's lost control"! Cole: (laughing) "Yeah, and so has his group of imposters because they now trail the New Breed Challenge one to nothin'"! COLE LAUGHS SOME MORE AT HEIDENREICH WHO IS BEATING HIS OWN HEAD AGAINST THE TURNPAD. Ventura: "It's not funny! The man has lost it"! BACKSTAGE.... TIGER ALI SINGH IS SHOWN HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH TAJIRI AND THE ULITMO DRAGON. Tiger Ali Singh: "So as I've been saying, Americans may act like they like you, but that's all it is... an act. Once they have a chance, they'll turn on you, for something like the fact that you speak a different language". TAJIRI SAYS SOMETHING IN JAPANESE. Singh: "You know, the fact that you talk funny. I mean.... funny to them.....funny to them, you know what I mean"! TAJIRI AND ULTIMO LOOK AT EACH OTHER AND THE EXPRESSION ON THEIR FACES SHOWS THEY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT SINGH IS TRYING TO SAY. JUST THEN, ROB VAN DAM COMES UP. Rob Van Dam: "Hey Tiger, they don't know what you mean. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm American and I like both these guys. None of us need you trying to fill someone's heads with your distorted views. So we'll do it this way. Either you can leave and go get on the magic carpet that brought you here, or I can take you out of here myself". Singh: "Right there! That's exactly what I mean! Stereotypical crap like that"! SINGH STARTS TO WALK AWAY AND RVD FOLLOWS HIM. BUT THE SECOND SINGH TURNS A CORNER, MUHAMMAD HASSAN ATTACKS RVD AND AFTER DRIVING HIM INTO THE WALL, HASSAN WALKS HIM OVER TO A PLATE GLASS WINDOW AND THROWS HIM HEAD FIRST THROUGH IT! A CUT IS OPEN ON RVD's FOREHEAD. Muhammad Hassan: "How'd ya like that for a magic carpet ride you son of a bitch"?! DISPICABLY, HASSAN THEN SPITS RIGHT ON RVD AND WALKS AWAY WITH SINGH. "HELL's GAURDIAN" BY SLIPKNOT HITS AND NAILS COMES OUT TO A HOARD OF BOOS. Cole: "That was absolutely reprehensible! Who the hell does Muhammad Hassan think he is"?! Ventura: "I'll agree with ya there Michael, that was an act of sheer cowardice if you ask me"! NAILS REACHED UNDER THE APRON AND STARTED TOSSING OBJECTS INTO THE RING AS "DO YOU CALL MY NAME" BY RA HIT AND AXL IRVIN CAME OUT TO NEARLY THE SAME AMOUNT OF BOOS WITH TRACI BROOKS AT HIS SIDE. Cole: "Nails is getting ready for this hardcore match and these two have developed a lot of hatred for one another". Ventura: "And they both want a shot at the Hardcore title held by Edge". Cole: "Axl Irvin and Edge have been on a collision course for weeks now and that was only made worse by what happened at the tail end of Uprising. For those of you who missed it, Orlando Jordan attacked Edge after a successful victory and it was clear who ordered that"! AXL CAME RIGHT IN THE RING AND TOOK NAILS TO THE MAT WITH A DOUBLE LEG TAKEDOWN AS THE BELL SOUNDED. Ventura: "Traci, you better get out of the way honey, these two are already tearing into each other"! Hardcore Rules Nails vs. Axl Irvin w/ Traci Brooks Irvin and Nails traded spots in the mount position, just beating the heck out of each other. But Nails was able to get a shot into the throat of Irvin before hitting a hard DDT. Nails picked up a No Parking sign and smashed it over the head of Axl before doing the same with the lid of a trash can. He then went outside the ring and reached under the apron again, this time pulling out a table. He slid the table into the ring and stood it up in the corner. Axl got to his feet and punched Nails twice in the abdomen before hitting a big knee lift. He went to whip Nails to the corner with the table but Nails reversed it, sending Axl in. But Axl got in a back elbow when Nails charged in before picking up a Singapore cane and whacking him across the stomach with it. Axl then stood the table up and put Nails on to it. He got on the table as well but Nails headbutted him. Both men teetered atop the table, trading shots. But after ducking a wild swing, Axl lifted Nails up and brought him off the table with the "Axl Cutter", a move that wowwed the crowd as they went into a "holy shit" chant. Axl then recovered enough to make the pin and Nails was down for the count. Match Time: 4:23 Cole: "Like him or hate him, that is a huge win for Axl Irvin"! Ventura: "Easily one of the biggest wins of his young career Cole and you mentioned that collision course with Edge a few minutes ago..... I think Axl just made his claim to a shot at the Hardcore title". "DO YOU CALL MY NAME" LOUDLY PLAYED AS AXL LEFT WITH TRACI WHO WAS HOLDING HIS ARM UP. Cole: "Axl knows what it's like to taste that Hardcore gold, I honestly think settling the score once and for all with Edge may be more of a focus"! COMMERCIAL BREAK....... A COMMERCIAL FOR 7-UP IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A FOX PROGRAMMING AD FOR "THAT 70's SHOW". RETURN FROM BREAK..... RINGSIDE...... AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, THE LOUD, ECHOING LAUGH OF TED DIBIASE FILLED THE HARA ARENA AS "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" HITS AND CHARLIE HAAS COMES OUT WITH THE MILLION DOLLAR MAN TO SOME OF THE LOUDEST BOOS ALL NIGHT. Cole: "Back on PrimeTime and if you just tuned in, this match was of course scheduled to be a number one contender's match but because of whatever decision Shane Thompson has made, that is no longer the case". Ventura: "And I feel for Charlie Haas there Michael. This is a man who won the Royal Rumble just a little over a year ago and has still never been given the oppurtunity he earned". "BURN IN MY LIGHT" BY MERCY DRIVE COMES ON AND RANDY ORTON COMES OUT TO A WILD CHEER AS HIS PYRO POURS DOWN FROM ABOVE. Cole: "And we shouldn't even need to get into how Haas won that but listen to the ovation for Randy Orton"! Ventura: "I love how you so cleverly change the subject Michael. Well here's one for ya, how about the challenge Randy Orton has been given for WrestleMania"? Cole: "Well a lot of things need to take place for that match to become official but High Octane, that's right, Rampage's High Octane did challenge him to a match at WrestleMania. However, I don't think Orton will be able to defeat Haas thinking about High Octane"! Charlie Haas w/ Ted Dibiase vs. Randy Orton Following Dibiase's orders, Haas tried to attack Orton from behind but Orton was ready, catching Haas with 2 straight right hands before whipping him to the ropes for a backbody drop. Orton was fired up but Dibiase swiped at his feet, one of many injections for the Million Dollar Man. Orton picked Haas up but Haas was able to grab him after a go behind and then took him to the mat with an amatuer style takedown. Haas rode it into a front facelock and it was clear that Haas felt he could beat Orton in a mat war. Orton was able to work his way out of the hold but Haas put him down with a clothesline. When Orton got up, Haas ran him over again with a running tomahawk chop that got him a 2 count. Haas then put Orton over the middle ring rope and distracted referee Mike Chioda while Dibiase pulled down on the back of Orton's head to choke him. Haas then hit the other side of the ropes and jumped on the back of Orton. He pulled him up, looking for a german suplex and he hit it with perfection to get a 1.......2......., but Orton was up. Moments later, Orton countered a scoop slam into a small package and got a very near fall. Haas immediately blasted Orton with a clothesline. The fans knew Orton was still in it though. Haas continued the punishment, delivering a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. But Orton was able to avoid the "Haas of Pain" by fighting to the ropes. But as Haas argued with Chioda, Dibiase got in another cheap shot. This one though, Chioda had a feeling about. Even though he didn't see Dibiase do it, he still forced him to the back, awakening the crowd with a huge roar. Haas jumped and stomped the mat wildly, protesting the decision. But it just allowed Orton to get up. He threw a clothesline but Haas grabbed his arm and tried for a backslide. But just like that, Orton turned Haas right into the "RKO" and hooked the leg as the crowd made the 1.......2..........3 count. Match Time: 9:01 Ventura: "Chioda had no right throwing Dibiase out of here! He has a manager's license to be down at ringside"! Cole: "Right, to manage, not to become involved in the match physically! Haas has no one to blame for this and not even Dibiase's money can buy him a win now"! "BURN IN MY LIGHT" HIT AND ORTON LEFT WITH A HUGE SMILE ON HIS FACE. Ventura: "And to think, Randy Orton would be the number one contender right now"! A PROMO GRAPHIC IS DISPLAYED SHOWING JASON TIGER OLIVER AND CHAOS WOLF STANDING IN FRONT OF THE PRIMETIME LOGO BUT BEHIND THE CHAIN LINK STYLE STEEL CAGE STRUCTURE. Cole: "Listen to this fans, already announced for next week will be round two of the New Breed Challenge when Chaos Wolf ad Jason Tiger Oliver battle inside a steel cage"! Ventura: "I can't wait for that"! Cole: "Well with what I like to call the real New Breed already up one to zero, Chaos Wolf can end the challenge with a victory next week"! Ventura: "They can't be referred to as the real New Breed until they win the rights to the name at WrestleMania Michael, please abide by that"! Cole: "Yes, governor". "READY TO DIE" BY HED HITS AND SHANE THOMPSON COMES TO THE RING WITH A CLIPBOARD CONTAINING A DOCUMENT IN HIS RIGHT HAND AND THE UNIVERSAL TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. Cole: "Wait a minute"! Ventura: "It's our Universal champion Michael, we might find out about this right now"! Shane Thompson: "I've got a little bit of a cold and I hate the town of Dayton, mainly because the people that live in it are all brother and sister, so I'm gonna make this real quick. THE CROWD IS ALL OVER THOMPSON. At WrestleMania, I have decided who I will defend my Universal title against. I don't care if you didn't have a rematch clause or not...... Dylan Jansens..... when you attacked me a couple weeks ago after shaking my hand..... you sent a message alright. For years, the world has wanted to see us go one on one.... and after you did that..... so did I. So I am challenging you to a match at WrestleMania..... for the Universal title..... the title that I took from you"! JUST THEN, "OVER MY HEAD" BY LIT HITS AND THE BOOS QUICKLY TURN TO MAJOR CHEERS AS DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT IN STREET CLOTHES, A BLACK MUSCLE SHIRT AND A PAIR OF BLUE JEANS. Ventura: "This is getting interesting now". Cole: "Well I have no doubt that DJ's gonna take this match, he's been wanting it for a long, long time". Dylan Jansens: "Ya know Shane, when I shook your hand..... I wanted to show that I respected the fact that you won the Dragon's Lair match. But when I knocked you to your ass just a second afterwards.... it was to show that I still don't like the way you get things done! So at WrestleMania...... I accept"! THE CROWD LOUDLY CHEERS AS THOMPSON PRESENTS JANSENS WITH THE CLIPBOARD AND A PEN. JANSENS DOESN'T HESISTATE AT ALL TO SIGN IT. Thompson: "So it's official, Dylan Jansens versus someone most every fan knows he can't beat..... me". Jansens: "We'll see.... I just find it ironic that someone who just months ago you thought was not deserving of the chance to wear that belt..... is now the man you're dying to have face you at the biggest stage of them all". Thompson: (laughs a bit) "Don;t try to figure me out Jansens..... it's not possible". Cole: "Wow..... I can't wait for WrestleMania". BOTH MEN HAVE SERIOUS LOOKS ON THEIR FACES AS THE SHOT FADES OUT WITH THEM NOSE TO NOSE. OFF AIR.......
