PRIMETIME's THEME MUSIC AND VIDEO MONTAGE PLAY AS PRIMETIME GOES LIVE. THE ARENA IS SHOWN, FILLED WITH THOUSANDS OF SCRAMING FANS. OUTSIDE IN THE PARKING LOT, A LIMOSINE SETS OUTSIDE. J.R.:"The fans here are rockus and there's no doubt the buzz is about who is in that limo outside King which pulled up over an hour ago and has not moved since. Sitting in for Michael Cole who is out sick, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler are ringside"! Jerry Lawler:"The buzz could very well be because of that but look at this. A MATCHUP PICTURE IS SHOWN OF EDDIE GUERRERO AND THE UNDERTAKER WHICH WAS POSTED ON TWF.COM. Eddie Guerrero is gonna go one on one with the deadman right here tonight"! KANE's MUSIC AND PYRO POUND TOGETHER AND HE COMES DOWN THE AISLE TO A LOUD CHEER. J.R.:"Also tonight fans is a four corners elimination match that will determine the number one contender for the Lightheavyweight title but right now, the big red machine is gonna go one on one with the demon of the deep"! LEVIATHAN's THEME HITS AND HE QUICKLY COMES DOWN THE AISLE AND GOES AFTER KANE. Lawler:"Kane is coming off a huge win over Travis Wakeman so what a huge win this would be for Leviathan"! Kane vs. Leviathan This was a back and forth slugfest as Leviathan hammered Kane with several hard forearm shots and clubs to the back. But Kane answered each one with a hard thrust punch. But Leviathan turned the tide after a big clothesline. He then twisted and jerked the left arm of Kane. Kane was in a lot of pain but he hung in there. Leviathan then attempted a big chokeslam but Kane countered with a big body toss. Leviathan landed awkwardly and when he got to his feet, he was deposited with the Tombstone as Kane got the win. Match Time: 6:49 J.R.:"Chalk another one up for Kane who is certainly one of the hottest superstars in the TWF right now"! Lawler:"Well I have it on good authority Michael that we are about to be graced by whoever was out in that limo"! THE NWO THEME HITS AND THEY COME OUT TOGETHER, LED BY VINCE McMAHON AND WALLY WILLSON. Lawler:"Well that answers your suspicions, it was the NWO all along"! J.R.: (sarcastically) "Wonderful, I bet the fans think Christmas came early". Vince McMahon:"How is everybody tonight? (crowd loudly boos) Well that's great. What we are here for tonight is to show you all a little movie. We thought you might like to watch a little video here so guys, roll the footage. FOOTAGE IS SHOWN OF THE NWO GANG ATTACKING X-PAC AT THE END OF SNME. Oh yeah, isn't that great? And Triple H, that's just step one, it's gonna get a lot worse between now and War in the Winter for you and everyone involved with you". WALLY WILLSON GETS A SECOND MIC. Wally Willson:"Okay boys, Vince and I have decided that rather than come out here and make a bunch of matches for tonight, we're just gonna give you a night off, based on the fact tha tyou all destroyed X-Pac on RAW". SUDDENLY, AN UNFAMILIAR TUNE HITS AND LINDA McMAHON APPEARS AT THE TOP OF THE RAMP TO A TREMENDOUS OVATION. Linda McMahon:"Well hello Vince. I know, I know, you wanna know what the hell I'm doing here don't you? Well I'll tell you. Now I know I promised not to get involved if Piper lost his status with the company. But tonight I am! And that is because Piper's not as stupid as you think Vince. He made some great decisions before he left, in the case that he lost his job as TWF Commissioner. So for starters, he made a match for War in the Winter that will simply be known as the New Year's War! It will be this year's War match and it will be a sixteen man over the top battle royale. But here's the catch Vince. The winner of that battle royale will get to name his New Year's resolution as it pertains to the TWF as a company, it won't be for personal gain but rather a new year's resolution for the TWF! Now, on to tonight, Piper also allowed me the oppurtunity to make a main event on either RAW is WAR, PrimeTime or Saturday Night's Main Event. THE NWO IS LIVID. And I figured, what better place than tonight? So here goes, first off, Hells Angel, you will be in action tonight and you will put the Hardcore title on the line against Ahmed Walker. But why stop there? I figured, since I can only do this once, I better make it good. So tonight, we will have a triple main event and Val Venis, even though you're not up there right now, you will put the TWF Title on the line against the guy you guys all decided to attack the other night, X-Pac! And last but not least, we're gonna lower a steel cage down and put Shawn Michaels on one side and Triple H on the other to settle their differences! How's that for a show Vince"? Vince:"Ya know Linda, I thought you guys might pull some crap like this and believe me, I'll be one step ahead of ya". VINCE AND LINDA STARE A HOLE THROUGH EACH OTHER AS PRIMETIME GOES TO COMMERCIAL.... COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK... BACKSTAGE.. Lilian Garcia:""Edge, tonight you and The Rock face Travis Wakeman and your brother Christian in a tag team match. What are your thoughts on that match"? Edge:"Well Lilian, I my brother Christian and I have been at each other's throats since the summer and I'm ready to put the whole situation behind me. Christian, it's time for you and I to go our seperate ways, but not before I kick your ass one more time. So at War in the Winter Christian, what's say we have a little two out of three falls match to find out who is truly better. You beat me at Welcome to our Yard and I beat you at Doomsday. But this time, there won't be any women there to help influence the outcome, just you and me little brother". EDGE WALKS AWAY. EXTREME JAPAN 2000's MUSIC HITS AS THE JAPANESE FLAG APPEARS ON THE TWF TRON AND THE GREAT MUTA COMES OUT. J.R.:"That's quite the challenge Edge just laid down to his brother Christian and if there last two matches on pay-per-view are any indication, that match would be great". CHRIS BENOIT's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GREAT OVATION. Lawler:"I still can't believe what Linda McMahon just did J.R.! What is Vince supposed to do"? J.R.:"Well for starters he needs to quit treating people like crap! But right now fans, Chris Benoit's running of the gauntlet if you will against Extreme Japan will continue tonight and he's got a tough assignment in front of him". The Great Muta vs. Chris Benoit This was a great technical match as Benoit countered Muta's attack by taking the match to the mat. Muta had no answer for Benoit's grounded assault. Benoit worked diligently on the right arm and shoulder of Muta, obviously setting up the Crossface. But Benoit missed an elbow drop and Muta used a great kip up and kicked Benoit hard in the chest. He then took him to the corner and hit Benoit with 3 knifedge chops. But Benoit reversed it and used some knifedge chops of his own as the smack echoed across the arena. Benoit then hit Muta with a shoulder breaker and went up top for his diving headbutt. But Muta got up quickly and bounced into the ring ropes, knocking Benoit off the turnbuckle. After a suplex, Muta measured Benoit for a savot kick but Benoit ducked and Muta drilled referee Tim White. Benoit then grabbed Muta from behind to attempt a german suplex but Muta used a back elbow to the head and then spit his mist in Benoit's face! That led to a roundhouse kick to the side of the head as White recovered to make the 3 count. Match Time: 5:05 Lawler:"Well it looks like Benoit didn't even run half the gauntlet J.R."! J.R.:"An unfortunate situation for Chris Benoit there as the referee was in the wrong place at the wrong time but nonetheless, a big win for Muta". BRIEF INTERMISSION "BAD BOY 4 LIFE" BY P.DIDDY HITS AS AHMED WALKER MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING. J.R.:"Tremendous oppurtunity for Ahmed Walker in the first of three big main events made tonight by Linda McMahon". Lawler:"She can make all the matches she wants to J.R., Hells Angel is one of the best Hardcore champions the TWF has ever had and that's not gonna end tonight, I'm sure he has an ace in the hole if you know what I mean". THE NWO THEME HITS AS HELLS ANGEL COMES OUT WITH THE HARDCORE TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER TO A CHORUS OF LOUD BOOS. J.R.:"Well I think I may be the first to congratulate Walker if he wins, someone has gotta get some power away from the NWO, somehow, or we're all doomed"! TWF Hardcore Title Match Challenger... Ahmed Walker vs. Hells Angel The 2 men went right after each other with hard rights and lefts. Hells Angel gained the upper hand after a kick to the groin. He then went and grabbed a steel chair. Hells Angel was set to drill Walker with the chair but Walker punced it right into his face! This brought out Nails. But as Nails ran down the entrance ramp, Nemesis jumped out of the crowd and cut him off at the pass. Nemesis ducked a wild right hand and hit Nails with a chokeslam on the ramp! He then reached into Nails pocket and pulled out a pair of brass knuckles. Nemesis entered the ring and nailed Hells Angel with the knucks. Walker then picked him up and hit him with the "Painkiller" and got the 1.....2.....3 as the crowd went berserk. Nemesis went and grabbed the Hardcore belt and handed it to Walker, the new champ! Match Time: 2:09 J.R.:"Oh hell yeah! They've beaten the NWO at their own game"! Lawler:"Somebody reverse the decision! This isn't fair"! J.R.:"Well it ain't gonna get reversed King, cause it was sure as hell fair when the NWO won the title that way"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL..... BACKSTAGE.... CARNEY AND STACY KEIBLER ARE BACKSTAGE LAUGHING AND CARRYING ON WHEN MATT HARDY COMES UP. Matt Hardy:"Hey man, I've thought everything over and tried to see where you're comin' from but I can't, what you did to Jeff was wrong. Now I don't want your title, but I'm damn sure gonna teach you a lesson. So why don't you face me, one one one on RAW"? MATT WALKS AWAY AS STACY LOOKS AT CARNEY WITH A VERY CONFUSED LOOK ON HER FACE. CARNEY JUST SHRUGS HIS SHOULDERS. Lawler:"What's wrong with Matt"? COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK... BACKSTAGE.... HIGH OCTANE APPROACHES TAZZ, WHO IS TALKING ON A CELL PHONE. High Octane:"Hey Tazz". Tazz:(to the person on the other line) "Hey man, I'm gonna have to call you back. What do you want"? High Octane:"Well, you've been here for awhile. I wanna know what I need to do to get noticed around here". Tazz:"Well, going around backstage trying to make enemies every show isn't one of them. You got a lot to learn kid". High Octane:"Well how bout a match between me and you on RAW"? Tazz:"Are you crazy? Didn't you ever see what I did to guys in ECW? What I've done to guys here in the TWF? (He laughs) I got bigger things to worry about". High Octane:"Yeah, you're probably right. What was I thinking? TAZZ TURNS TO WALK AWAY BUT HIGH OCTANE SPINS HIM AROUND AND BLASTS HIM WITH THE "HEAD ON COLLISION" SUPERKICK. HIGH OCTANE STANDS OVER TAZZ, LOOKING DOWN ON HIM. How'd that taste"? "LATINO HEAT" HITS AS EDDIE GUERRERO COMES OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT. J.R.:"Does High Octane have a death wish"? Lawler:"He's just trying to make a name for himself J.R.. He's got a lot of guts, I'll give him that"! "ROLLIN" BY LIMP BIZKIT HITS AS THE UNDERTAKER COMES OUT TO A HELL OF A GOOD RESPONSE. J.R.:"Well here comes the American Badass and he looks like he's in a foul mood, not a good sign for Eddie Guerrero". Lawler:"Don't let him intimidate you Eddie. You can win this one"! J.R.:"Guerrero's been a confused individual lately over his own nationality it seems, first having what he called Texas pride and then hanging around with members of Extreme Japan the next minute. However, he has been on a heck of a hot streak since returning from injury and he is nominated for Comeback Wrestler of the year which you can vote on along with a whole bunch of other awards right now on TWF.com". Lawler:"I vote for Eddie, hands down and he's not confused about his nationality J.R., he just wants to be in the company of winners, something guys like The Undertaker are not". J.R.:"You wanna tell him that"? The Undertaker vs. Eddie Guerrero Guerrero tried to employ a hit a run attack, striking The Undertaker and backing away. But the veteran Undertaker wouldn't fall for the ploy and kept his cool. Eddie tried a right hand but The Undertaker blocked it and kicked him right in the face with a big boot. That spelt the beginning of the end for Guerrero who was dominated by The Undertaker after that point. The Undertaker used his old school walk on the top rope and came crashing down on Guerrero. He then signaled for the Tombstone. He picked Guerrero up to deliver it but Guerrero slid off his back. But the Undertaker showed his great reaction time by immediately turning around and wrapping a hand around Guerrero's throat when he landed. The Undertaker then delivered a chokeslam and got the win. After the bell rang, Rob Van Dam came out with a steel chair and tossed it to The Undertaker who instinctively caught it. RVD then hit Undertaker with the Vandaminator. RVD sttod over Undertaker and did his trademark thumbs to the shoulder taunt and half the crowd chanted R....V...D. with him. Match Time: 6:51 J.R.:"Well I thought High Octane had the biggest death wish in the TWF but that title may have been taken just now by Rob Van Dam". Lawler:"What do you mean J.R.? He's got Undertaker's number". J.R.:"Well he did get a surprise victory at Survivor Series but I don't think anyone has The Undertaker's number". BRIEF BREAK FROM THE ACTION. FANS IN ATTENDANCE SEE LILIAN GARCIA GO OVER THE MERCHANDISE THAT IS UP FOR SALE AT THE ARENA. TV VIEWERS SEE A PROMO OF THE TWF's UPCOMING EVENT IN EUROPE. A TITLE AND VENUE FOR THIS EVENT IS YET TO BE DETERMINED. SAM WILDE's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT WITH A MIC TO A MIXED REACTION. J.R.:"Well here comes one of the TWF's brightest youngsters and this is our first chance to see him on a live broadcast". Lawler:"Well I for one turn all Jehovah's Witnesses away from my door so I definitely don't wanna listen to this". J.R.:"Who said he was a Jehovah's Witness"? Sam Wilde:"Hello all. What a wonderful night here in New York. I can feel God's spirit. It is in this arena. It is with us all. God is good. Now, I couldn't help but notice those Satan worshipers from the NWO, Hells Angel and Nails being outsmarted tonight and good riddens to them. Nails, Hells Angel, soon, you will realize that God frowns on men like you and you both will see the light". SUDDENLY, THE IMPACT PLAYERS MUSIC HITS AND CHRIS MICHAELS APPEARS ON THE RAMP. Chris Michaels:"Hey man, no one wants to hear this Christian crap. These people came to see wrestling, not to go to church. If you wanna find out what's wrong with the TWF, I'll come down and show you right now". Sam Wilde:"Well then by all means, come on down". MICHAELS DROPS HIS MIC AND RUNS TO THE RING. J.R.:"Well it appears we've got an impromptu match here". Chris Michaels vs. Sam Wilde This was a great technical contest as both men used a lot of general ring moves. Michaels caught Wilde with a drop toe hold as he came off the ropes and then followed it into a side head lock. But Wilde worked his way back to a vertical base and flipped Michaels over with a fireman's carry. He then used 3 straight arm drags to frustrate Michaels. Obviously used to wrestling in tag action, Michaels went to his corner to make a tag. This drew a big laugh from the crowd and Wilde followed it with a dropkick to the face. But Michaels lowblowed Wilde and grabbed him around the waste. Wilde recovered and used a standing go behind switch into a german suplex to get a surprise pin. Michaels was furious as he left the ring and Wilde got on his knees in the center of the ring, as if saying a prayer. Match Time: 6:49 Lawler:"Ah no! How'd he do that"? J.R.:"Hey, I'm not all that religious, but I kind of like the guy. He definitely pulled one over on Chris Michaels there". X-PAC's NEW THEME BY SALIVA HIT AND HE CAME OUT TO A VERY FAVORABLE REACTION. J.R.:"A chance to exact a little revenge against the NWO and what a chance X-Pac has tonight". Lawler:"This is all Linda's doing. X-Pac doesn't deserve a title shot". "NO CHANCE" HITS WITH THE NWO THEME IN THE BACKGROUND AS VINCE McMAHON COMES TO THE RING WITH A GRIN ON HIS FACE. J.R.:"This will be X-Pac's first shot at the TWF title in his career here but I don't like the looks of this". Vince McMahon:"Linda, I said I'd be one step ahead of you tonight and I won't disappoint here. Linda, when you made this title match, you failed to realize one minor detail and that is the fact that TWF champion Val Venis is not in attendance tonight! (crowd boos) Sorry X-Pac, this match won't be taking place tonight". X-PAC ANGRILY GRABS VINCE BY THE COLLAR AND REACHES BACK TO PUNCH HIM WHEN VAL VENIS COMES OUT OF THE AUDIENCE IN STREET CLOTHES AND NAILS X-PAC WITH THE TWF BELT. HE THEN GOES UP TOP AND HITS X-PAC WITH THE "MONEY SHOT". J.R.:"He's right there! Vince is a lying sack of... Lawler:"Whoa there J.R., calm down"! TRIPLE H COMES RUNNING OUT TO MAKE THE SAVE BUT VINCE AND VAL VENIS SEE HIM AND EVACUATE THE RING. J.R.:"This is ridiculous! The NWO has gone too far"! COMMERCIAL..... RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE.... BAHAMUT IS WALKING BACKSTAGE WHEN HE IS CONFRONTED BY CHUCK PALUMBO AND SEAN O'HAIRE. Sean O'haire:"Well, look who it is Chuck". Chuck Palumbo:"Hey Bahamut, don't get us wrong, you and Strife are one hell of a team, maybe the best ever, but Sean and I feel like you guys are ducking us for a tag team title shot. We've gone through every team here". Bahamut:"Ducking you? (he laughs) Boys, if you want a title shot that bad, you can have one. Strife and I have no plans for War in the Winter, let's do it then". O'haire:"Sounds great". THE NWO THEME HITS AS THE ACTION CONTINUES. ZEROEX COMES DOWN THE AISLE AS FOOTAGE IS SHOWN FROM RAW OF A BACKSTAGE BRAWL BETWEEN HE AND KEN SHAMROCK. J.R.:"What a tag team title match that'll be folks and speaking of titles, ZeroEx will face Ken Shamrock for the UFC title right here". Lawler:"I hope Shamrock knows what he's gotten himself into. ZeroEx is a world champion kickboxer". KEN SHAMROCK's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GREAT REACTION WITH THE UFC TITLE STRAPPED AROUND HIS WAIST. J.R.:"Well there's a reason why he has the UFC title King, I promise ya, Shamrock fears no one". UFC Title Match Challenger... ZeroEx vs. Ken Shamrock In a very physical contest, ZeroEx quickly found out why Ken Shamrock is the World's Most Dangerous man. ZeroeX had some success using his kickboxing background. But Shamrock's M.O. was to incapacitate the right arm of ZeroEx. Shamrock put ZeroEx through 5 excruciating submission holds to the arm and wore him down with a belly to belly and a fisherman suplex. ZeroEx created a seperation with a kick to the stomach and a right jab/hook kick combo. ZeroEx then went for a clothesline but Shamrock ducked and used a jumping armbar and ZeroEx quickly tapped out. Obviously impressed, the ringside judge had Shamrock on top 7-4 on his card at the time of the submission win. Match Time: 7:37 J.R.:"Things definitely aren't all in the NWO's favor tonight King". Lawler:"I thought ZeroEx had him but I gotta admit that Shamrock's nearly unbeatable under those rules". BRIEF BREAK FROM THE ACTION. JUSTIN SANE's MUSIC HITS AND HE RUNS DOWN TO THE RING. J.R.:"Back to the action fans as we are about to witness a four corners elimination match with the winner earning a Lightheavyweight title match against Carney at War in the Winter". ESSA RIOS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD POP. Lawler:"Carney is having a lot of problems with his current running mates, the Hardy Boyz". TAJIRI's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GREAT REACTION AS WELL. J.R.:"Carney was challenged earlier to a match on RAW by Matt Hardy and apparently, that match will take place. The one thing I don't understand is why is Matt confronting Carney if Jeff's so upset". THE HARDY BOYZ' MUSIC HITS AND JEFF HARDY COMES OUT TO ONE OF THE BEST REACTIONS OF THE NIGHT. Lawler:"That's easy J.R., Matt has always done things for Matt. Heck, Matt got them jobs here". J.R.:"Well one of these men will have a shot at Carney at War in the Winter and this match should not be short on highflying action". 4 Corners Elimination match to determine #1 contender for Lightheavyweight title Tajiri vs. Essa Rios vs. Jeff Hardy vs. Justin Sane It took 5 and a half minutes of heartstopping action before an elimination until Essa Rios got 2 within 15 seconds. Rios first put Tajiri out after dodging a martial arts kick in the corner and hitting him with the "Rios Driver". Justin Sane came after Rios and hit him with 3 right hands. He then whipped him into the ropes but Rios pulled off a beautiful sunset flip to put Sane out. That left Rios and Jeff Hardy. These 2 finished the match strong, with Rios dictating the pace. He caught Jeff with a nice dropkick and then threw him out of the ring. Rios went for a flying attack over the turnbuckle but Jeff moved at the last second and Rios slammed into the barricade. Jeff rolled him into the ring and went for the cover but Rios kicked out. Jeff then hit him with the Whisper in the Wind off the top rope to get another near fall. After a sit down jawbreaker, Jeff went up top for the "Swanton Bomb" but Rios rolled out of the way. When Jeff got up, Rios dropped him with the "Rios Driver" to get the 3 count. But during the count, referee Chad Patton failed to see Jeff's foot on the bottom rope which had been there the whole count. However, Rios was declared the winner. Match Time: 9:17 J.R.:"What happened? Jeff had his foot on the rope". Lawler:"Rios eliminated everybody! He definitely deserves the title shot"! J.R.:"Well fans you may not agree but it's just an honest mistake by young referee Chad Patton. Essa Rios has advanced to War in the Winter where he'll get a rematch with Carney. That'll be a great match". PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL... BACKSTAGE... THE UNDERTAKER IS BACKSTAGE BEATING THE HELL OUT OF A PUNCHIN BAG. LILIAN GARCIA APPROACHES HIM. Lilian Garcia:"undertaker, what's with all the agression"? Undertaker:"Agression? This ain't agression. Rob Van Dam, RVD, whatever you refer to yourself as, you and I, we're gonna dance. So bring your little ass to War in the Winter, cause I'm gonna make ya famous boy"! COMMERCIAL..... RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE..... BAHAMUT IS STANDING WITH STRIFE. Bahamut:"What's up man"? Strife:"Nada bro". Bahamut:"Well guess what? At War in the Winter, we're gonna defend our titles against those two New Breed chumps, Palumbo and O'haire". Strife:"What? You made a title match without telling me? Alright, now we get to kick some ass"! NEW BREED DRESSING ROOM SCOTTY 2 HOTTY IS SITTING IN FRONT OF A TV WITH A REMOTE CONTROL IN HIS HAND. HE IS REVIEWING THE VIDEOTAPE OF THE HIT AND RUN INCIDENT AT SURVIVOR SERIES INVOLVING JORDAN ROCKWELL, TRYING TO FIND ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS. SUDDENLY, YUJI MATASAMO AND HAYABUSA BUST IN AND SAVAGELY ATTACK HIM. Yuji Matasamo:"That's for accusing us, punk". A RED HAZE COMES OVER THE CROWD AS THE LIGHTS DIM. DREW BLOOD's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES DOWN THE AISLE VERY METHODICALLY, A STOIC LOOK ON HIS FACE. J.R.:"Things are getting very out of control here on PrimeTime as Scotty 2 Hotty has been assualted by Extreme Japan 2000. We are being told that EMT's are tending to him as we speak and I've just been handed a note that Rob Van Dam has accepted The Undertaker's challenge and the two will meet in a return match from Survivor Series at War in the Winter". RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT CARRYING BOTH HIS TITLE BELTS. Lawler:"It's time for the European title match J.R. and here comes the first double champion in TWF history"! J.R.:"That double champion status is in jeopeardy tonight as the manbeast has to face Drew Blood who earned this shot by defeating Tazz last week on Raw is War". TWF European Title MatchChallenger... Drew Blood vs. Rhyno This was by far and away the best match all night and maybe the best match of the month. The fans loved every second of the non stop action. Rhyno took it to the smaller Drew Blood with several hard shots to the lower back. He then used a running backbreaker which got him a 2 count. Rhyno went for a bodyslam but Drew Blood nearly stole a win with a small package. Drew Blood then ducked a clothesline and caught Rhyno with the "Bloodbath" out of nowhere. Referee Jim Corderis began his count 1....2..., but Rhyno kicked out! Drew Blood couldn't believe it. He went to the top rope and went for a high cross body block but Rhyno caught him with a thunderous powerslam. Rhyno hooked the leg but Drew Blood kicked out at the last second. Rhyno whipped Drew Blood in and after each men ducked several clothesline attempts, Rhyno caught him with a running powerslam. But instead of going for the cover, Rhyno went outside the ring and got a table from underneath which he brought in and propped up in the corner. Rhyno measured Drew Blood for the Gore but Drew saw him coming and moved out of the way. Rhyno went head first into the table! Then, Drew Blood hit him with the "Bloodbath" again as he staggered to his feet and covered him for the 1....2....3 Match Time: 12:32 J.R.:"What a match! These two just put it all on the line and Drew Blood has come out the victor"! Lawler:"His second reign as champion of Europe"! J.R.:"Well folks, some big news came out of TWF headquartes today that Travis Wakeman had proposed a match to The Rock for War in the Winter and The Rock accepted. However King, it's not just any type of match, it'll be under I Quit rules"! "NEVER GONNA STOP" BY ROB ZOMBIE HITS AS EDGE COMES OUT OF A CLOUD OF SPOKE AND WALKS DOWN THE AISLE. Lawler:"Well there's definitely been some memorable I Quit matches in the history of this business and that won't be pretty, but will there be anything left of them after this match"? "IF YA SMELL...WHAT THE ROCK... IS COOKIN'" HITS AS THE ROCK COMES OUT TO A TREMNDOUS OVATION. J.R.:"Well The Rock and Travis Wakeman will definitely cap off a tremendous year in the TWF in style King. This has been a hell of a year for the TWF"! CHRISTIAN's MUSIC AND PYRO HIT BUT HE DOESN'T COME OUT. Lawler:"It sure has J.R., unfortunately I didn't get to be here for all of it, but let me just say, there's no one who does it like the TWF does"! J.R.:"Now what's goin' on here? Christian is not out here. Wait a minute.... SUDDENLY, WAKEMAN AND CHRISTIAN COME OUT OF THE CROWD AND ATTACK THE ROCK AND EGDE FROM BEHIND. Travis Wakeman and Christian vs. The Rock and Edge Tag format never applied in this one but it was a well worked match. Wakeman and The Rock's brawl spilled into the front row and the crowd went nuts. In the ring, Edge and Christian had a great altercation and series of moves. After a terrific match from top to bottom, The Rock used a dragon leg sweep on Wakeman and then locked in one of he and Wakeman's favorite holds, the Sharpshooter. Christian climbed up on the apron and came into the ring to make the save but just as he was getting ready to hit The Rock, Edge drilled him with the spear to get the 1...2...3. The Rock held the Sharpshooter on Wakeman until several referees came to the ring and literally pulled him off. Match Time: 7:58 J.R.:"The Rock and Edge have just sent a huge message to their opponents at War in the Winter". Lawler:"All The Rock just did is add more fuel to Wakeman's fire. He'll be sorry he held that hold on for so long". J.R.:"Don't move an ince fans, steel cage match between Triple H and Shawn Michaels is next"! COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK.... AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, THE NWO MIXED VERSION OF "SEXY BOY" HITS AND SHAWN MICHAELS COMES TO THE RING. Lawler:"I wonder what Linda's gonna say when her plan backfires J.R.. Shawn Michaels has more experience in the steel cage then almost anyone in the TWF". "THE GAME" BY MOTORHEAD HITS AS TRIPLE H COMES OUT TO A HUGE OVATION. J.R.:"He may have the experience but Triple H has the psychological advantage on the NWO right now with his pending surprise". Lawler:"Oh this surprise story is insane. He doesn't have any surprise. He just wants to shake things up. Obviously a technique he learned from Commissioner Piper"! J.R.:"These two have had some epic battles in the past, including that brilliant two out of three falls match in April but this will be fought in the confines of a steel cage". Steel Cage Match Shawn Michaels vs. Triple H Both men had been in a cage match before, so they knew the risks. But they also knew how to inflict damage. HBK grabbed control early, catching Triple H with a jumping back elbow. He then rammed him face first into the steel repeatedly. HBK made 2 attempts to escape but Triple H was thwarted them both. He then took Michaels and grinded his head against the steel. Triple H then came flying in with a knee but Michaels moved. Michaels then started back up the cage but Helmsley wasn't far behind. Once at the top of the cage, the 2 traded punches. Suddenly, they both lost their grip and fell with Triple H partially landing on Michaels. Triple H struggled to his feet and made his way to the cage door when Val Venis came out and tried to slam the door in his face but Triple H took a step back and kicked it right in Venis' face! But when Triple H turned around, Michaels drilled him with the "Sweet Chin Music" and escpaed through the door with the help of Venis. Lawler:"I told you Linda's plan would backfire J.R."! AS VENIS AND HBK WALKED UP THE RAMP IN CELEBRATION, CAMERAS FOCUSED ON A FURIOUS TRIPLE H WHO WAS STILL IN THE RING. J.R.:"Even the steel cage couldn't keep the NWO out! The TWF has to come up with an answer for this, quickly"! OFF AIR....
