February 25, 2006
PrimeTime ventured to a spot that isn't known as a big wrestling territory but the fans were ready for this show. There were droves of Jordan Rockwell fans in attendance, especially since he made an appearance at a local video store and signed autographs for an hour. Chaos Wolf w/ Chae vs. Derek Niekirk (invitee) Uprising started with a bit of a squash as Niekirk couldn't hold his own against a very vicious Chaos Wolf, who combined an athletic, high flying arsenal with a bonafide mean streak. After sticking Niekirk with a stiff DDT, he picked him up for the "Chaos Driver" and brought a merciful end to the match. Chavo Guerrero and Ultimo Dragon vs. Mariner and Frankie Kazarian This was a very entertaining lightheavyweight tag team match in which all 4 competitors showed off their skills. Mariner and Chavo had an excellent series, continuing their rivalry but as they fought outside, Kazarian went for the "Wave of the Future" only to have Ultimo block it by holding the top rope. He reacted immediately, grabbing Kazarian in the Dragon Sleeper and getting the submission. Axl Irvin w/ Traci Brooks vs. Taylor Made Uprising featured a very good main event but Taylor broke his concentration many times to focus on the vivacious Traci, who acted like she was into him too. Axl held his own though, taking the fight to Taylor. But after missing with a clothesline in the corner, Taylor grabbed his right arm and put him down with a hook kick. Traci got on the apron and turned around, pulling up her very, very short skirt. She seemed to be encouraging Taylor to spank her and without hesitation, he did. But when he turned around, Axl knocked the smile off his face with a savat kick before picking him up and delivering the "Axl Cutter" to win it. Although victorious, Axl didn't seem thrilled with Traci's actions. PRIMETIME GOES LIVE
PRIMETIME TAKES THE AIR WITH FOOTAGE FROM LAST WEEK's OPPURTUNITY KNOCKS TOURNAMENT FIRST ROUND HIGHLIGHTING CHRIS MASTERS' WIN OVER BAHAMUT AND SHANE THOMPSON DEFEATING RIC FLAIR. THE ARENA THEN COMES INTO THE SHOT AND "JUST LOOK AT ME" IS HEARD AS ROB CONWAY MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING, AMID MOSTLY BOOS. Michael Cole: "We thank you for tuning in to TWF PrimeTime as we roll on towards WrestleMania seven and tonight, we're kicking things off with an Intercontinental title match"! Jesse Ventura: "And just last week, Rob Conway defeated the champion Heidenreich so I wouldn't be a bit surprised to see a new champion tonight"! "DANGEROUS POLITICS" HITS AND HEIDENREICH COMES OUT HOLDING THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE WITH A VERY FOCUSED LOOK ON HIS FACE. Cole: "We all heard the inspirational story after Heidenreich won the Intercontinental title. He was driven by what happened in his home state of New Orleans, the damage caused by Hurricane Katrina". Ventura: "And he ended possibly the most impressive title reign in TWF history but he proved last week that it was a fluke, at least he did in my mind"! Cole: "Yeah, we know you like to write people off too easily but this is a chance for redemption for Heidenreich, a chance to get that win back". TWF Intercontinental Title Match Challenger: Rob Conway vs. Heidenreich With his first title reign in sight, Conway attacked Heidenreich before the bell sounded. The belt fell to the mat and referee Charles Robinson picked it up and handed it to the timekeeper as Conway tried to break the big champion down with punches and kicks. But after reversing an irish whip, Heidenreich sent Conway skyward with a backbody drop. After back to back clotheslines, he picked Conway up and shot him to the corner, following in with a shoulder. But Conway moved and rolled him up, putting his feet on the middle rope as Robinson counted the 1.......2......., but Heidenreich still kicked out! Conway couldn't believe it and suddenly, Heidenreich seemed impervious to pain, shaking off both his kicks and his punches. Conway hit the ropes but Heidenreich kicked him right in the face. After a big scoop slam, Heidenreich hit the ropes and dropped a huge elbow across the chest of Conway. With the crowd firmly behind him, Heidenreich shot Conway to the ropes and hit the scrapbuster slam, a move he is calling the "Aftermath" and he hooked the leg for the convincing three count. Match Time: 6:02 Cole: "Well you talk about retaining your title in convincing fashion! So much for your idea of his win over Sean O'Haire being a fluke"! Ventura: "This guy Heidenreich has all the physical tools Michael! I just question was he has upstairs, if you know what I mean. It takes smarts to be a champion". HEIDENREICH's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE WALKED UP THE RAMP HOLDING HIS TITLE UP FOR THE CHEERING CROWD. Cole: "Well if you ask me, he doesn't have anything to worry about right now"! BACKSTAGE AREA........ CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW SHANE McMAHON AS EDGE COMES INTO THE SHOT WEARING A "RATED R" SKULL CAP WITH THE UNIVERSAL TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER AND A HUGE SMILE ON HIS FACE. Shane McMahon: "Oh look, it's the new Universal champion. Let me guess, the time you asked for later is to let us all hear about it, right"? Edge: "Oh you're damn right you're gonna hear about, you and all these people! But not only that, I have invited a very special guest to join us tonight, and he's gonna hear about it too"! EDGE WALKS AWAY AS SHANE THOMPSON COMES UP WITH 5 POLICE OFFICERS IN FULL RIOT GEAR. Shane Thompson: "You ready to talk some more"? Shane McMahon: "Sure seems that way. Do we really need the cops though"? THOMPSON IGNORES THE QUESTION, ENTERING A NEARBY OFFICE AS THE POLICE FOLLOW. COMMERCIAL BREAK........ A COMMERCIAL FOR CHILI's IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE "THE HILL's HAVE EYES". RETURN FROM BREAK...... A SCENE IS SHOWN FULL OF SEVERAL BURNING CANDLES. SITTING INSIDE THEM IS MORDECAI, HIS FACE COVERED BY A HOOD AS HIS VOICE BEGINS TO SPEAK. Mordecai: "So you have summoned the pale rider? You truly believe that you have the power to change your fate. Well Bahamut, your fate has been determined and soon...... soon it shall be brought to you! I accept your challenge for a match and this time...... after I make you pay for all of your sins...... you will not come back"! MORDECAI LOOKS UPWARDS AND BREAKS INTO AN EVIL LAUGH AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO LIVE ACTION. "MISTERRRRRR KENNEDY........ KENNEDY" IS HEARD AND KEN KENNEDY COMES OUT TO A MIXED RESPONSE. Cole: "What the heck is wrong with Mordecai? I don't know what Bahamut has ever done in the TWF that would qualify him as a sinner"! Ventura: "In the eyes of the pale rider, I think everyone has sinned Michael and if I'm Bahamut, I don't think I would've made that challenge". Cole: "Well speaking of challenges, Ken Kennedy has made one that perhaps he is about to regret as he will face arguably thee most powerful man in TWF history"! ROME's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A VERY LOUD POP, HIS EYES LOCKED ON KENNEDY. Ventura: "Well what was he supposed to do Michael?! Rome came out last week and cut into Kennedy's interview time, cut into him telling the people what he plans to do with his new year's resolution"! Cole: "Rome did what so many guys in the back have been wanting to do and that's shut this guy up! It must've worked too because Kennedy didn't attempt his pre-match ritual of introducing himself"! Ken Kennedy vs. Rome The bell sounded and Rome wanted a lockup. Kennedy acted like he did too but each time he got in close, he pulled back in an effort to stall. After a third time doing this, the boos in the crowd became very loud and Kennedy instead asked for a test of strength. Rome acted like he was going to go for it but seeing through Kennedy's plan, he dropped him with a right hand. Rome then hit a clothesline before whipping Kennedy to the ropes for an impressive powerslam. Rome picked Kennedy up and delivered a delay vertical suplex, dropping Kennedy hard on the mat. He made the cover but only managed a 2 count. Kennedy stumbled to his feet and charged Kennedy but Kennedy pulled down the top rope, sending him sprawling to the floor. He then followed him outside the ring and sent him shoulder first into the steel ring steps. Rome's right shoulder was in serious pain as Kennedy rolled him back into the ring, now in firm control of the match. But Rome fought back after Kennedy missed with a forearm off the top rope. He loaded him onto his shoulder and delivered a running powerslam, hooking the leg for the 1..........2........, but Kennedy kicked out again. Rome pulled him up and whipped him to the corner, following in but Kennedy moved out of the way and he posted his right shoulder, the same one that got banged up earlier. Rome then fell right into a schoolboy and grabbed the middle ring rope which referee Mike Enos never saw as he made the 3 count. Match Time: 7:09 Cole: "Damnit"! Ventura: "Chalk one up for Mister Kennedy, what a big win"! Cole: "Oh no, now he's coming over here"! AS KENNEDY's MUSIC PLAYED, HE WENT AND GRABBED HOWARD FINKEL's MICROPHONE. Ken Kennedy: "The winner of this match...... the man who won the 2005 New Year's battle royale and thee most unbelievable superstar in the TWF today....... Mister Kennedy......... KENNEDY GOES AND GETS IN THE FACE OF MICHAEL COLE. Kennedy"! Ventura: (laughs) Cole: "Please, this guy's an idiot"! Ventura: "An idiot who basically holds a golden ticket with that new year's resolution"! BACKSTAGE...... CHRISTIAN IS SHOWN BACKSTAGE AND HE COMES UP TO JORDAN ROCKWELL AS THE CROWD INSIDE LOUDLY POPS. Christian: (concerned) "So what do you have planned for tonight man"? Jordan Rockwell: "Well I have to do something. I can't let this guy turn out the lights on me every week". Christian: "Look man, I don't know what you did to piss off The Undertaker, but are you sure you know what you're doing"? Rockwell: "I've said it before and I'll say it again. I respect Undertaker but I am the man who no one in this business can out perform. So starting tonight, I am going to do everything The Undertaker has done in his career and I'm gonna do it in a matter of weeks..... starting tonight". ROCKWELL WALKS AWAY AND CHRISTIAN LOOKS VERY CONFUSED WHEN CHRIS MASTERS COMES UP FROM BEHIND. Chris Masters: "Oh look, it's the former Universal champion. Look man, save me the tears, okay". Christian: "Oh so now I'm supposed to worry about what the moron from Donkey King Country has to say?! In case you haven't realized, I'm a two time Universal champion and you're a two time..... (looks him up and down) nothing! There's no need for me to have any tears...... bitch"! CHRISTIAN WALKS AWAY AND MASTERS DEFINITELY DOESN'T APPRECIATE WHAT HE HAD TO SAY. BACK TO LIVE ACTION, RENE DUPREE's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND HE IS IN THE RING WITH DAWN MARIE. Cole: "Two matches in the Oppurtunity Knocks tournament will take place tonight and this is one of them. What an oppurtunity for this guy". Ventura: "Hence the name Oppurtunity Knocks Cole". THE CROWD GOES INTO A HUGE ROAR AS BATISTA's MUSIC HITS AND HE MAKES HIS WAY DOWN TO THE RING. DUPREE DOES NOT LOOK INTIMIDATED. Cole: "Well when this tournament was announced, you had to consider this man one of the favorites! The animal is unleashed"! Ventura: "He is the favorite Michael, but don't sell Dupree short, he has the ability to get the job done"! Oppurtunity Knocks Tournament 1st Round Rene Dupree w/ Dawn Marie vs. Batista This was a great match and Dupree came oh so close to pulling the upset. After a back and forth battle, Batista took control with his spinebuster. This after enduring an onslaught from Dupree and kicking out of six pin attempts. Dawn Marie tried to distract referee Mickey Henson in an attempt to slow Batista down. That allowed Dupree to come from behind with a lowblow and he tried to get Batista up for the "Dupree Bomb" but Batista wouldn't allow it and then, he countered into a small package and Henson made the 3 count. Match Time: 11:21 Ventura: "Oh come on, that wasn't three"! Cole: "It sure was! Man, when was the last time you saw Batista win a match with a small package"?! Ventura: "But he advances to the next round and I think he's lucky to have done so"! BATISTA's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE CELEBRATED IN THE RING AS DAWN MARIE AND DUPREE WALKED AWAY WITH HER TRYING TO CONSOLE HIM. Cole: "And still to come tonight, another tournament match! Randy Orton meets the rookie monster Lashley"! COMMERCIAL BREAK........ A COMMERCIAL FOR TACO BELL IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY AN AD FOR THE TWF MALL FEATURING THE BRAND NEW WRESTLEMANIA 7 T-SHIRT. WRESTLEMANIA REPLAY IN FRONT OF ONE OF THE LARGEST AUDIENCES IN TWF HISTORY AT THE SKYDOME FOR WRESTLEMANIA 5, LOS GUERREROS SUCCESSFULLY DEFENDED THE RAMPAGE TAG TEAM TITLES AGAINST LA RESISTANCE WHEN EDDIE GUERRERO MADE RENE DUPREE TAP OUT IN THE "LASSO FROM EL PASO". BUT AS THE CELEBRATION WENT ON AFTER THE MATCH, THE BURGER KING GUY SERVED AS CHAVO GUERRERO. RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE....... WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, PAUL LONDON IS SHOWN IN THE RING WITH THE LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST AS LA FAMILIA's MUSIC HITS AND ESSA RIOS COMES OUT TO A BIG CHEER. Cole: "WrestleMania is just around the corner, man I love this time of year and right now, the Lightheavyweight title..... oh wait a minute"! BEFORE RIOS COULD GET TO THE RING, HE WAS ATTACKED FROM BEHIND BY CHAOS WOLF WHO WAS HOLDING A STEEL CHAIR. CHAE WAS WITH HIM AND SHE WAS VERY HAPPY. Ventura: "He cracked him with that! What a shot"! Cole: "What the hell is Chaos Wolf doing?! He has no business out here"! LONDON WONDERED WHAT WAS GOING ON AS OFFICIALS CAME OUT TO PULL CHAOS WOLF AND CHAE TO THE BACK. Ventura: "Well, I guess we're not gonna have a title match"! BACKSTAGE....... CAMERAS CATCH UP WITH IDALIS, WHO IS SHOWN WALKING OUTSIDE THE ARENA WHERE IT IS DARK. Idalis: "I can't believe Shane sent me to do this...... THE BROOD IS SHOWN STANDING BY A TRASH CAN THAT HAS A FIRE IN IT. GANGREL TAKES A DRINK FROM A GOBLET. Idalis: "Uh, I was told you guys have something to say". Gangrel: "Yes, we do. Go find the Orient Express in Japan or wherever they are and you tell them that we want a title shot". JOHNNY SWINGER OFFERS IDALIS HIS GOBLET. Idalis: "Uh...... no thanks". SHE TURNS TO WALK AWAY BUT GANGREL GRABS HER BY THE HAIR AND SHOVES THE GOBLET NEAR HER CHIN. DISGUSTED, SHE TAKES A DRINK OUT OF IT AND BOTH MEN START TO LAUGH. BACK AT RINGSIDE, SEAN O'HAIRE IS IN THE RING AS "COME ON" BY WATERPROOF BLONDE IS PLAYING. Cole: "Oh, that's disgusting"! Ventura: "Hey, sometimes the job requires you to do something you don't want to do Cole"! "FIREFLY" BY BREAKING BENJAMIN COMES ON AND CHRIS PLATOON COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER. Cole: "This should be an interesting match here between a guy looking to prove himself and a guy looking to get back where he was". Ventura: "I don't think Sean O'Haire will have any problems with this guy, it's only a matter of time before there's more gold around his waist". Sean O'Haire vs. Chris Platoon After a tradeoff of armdrags, O'Haire threw a spin kick but Platoon ducked right into a back footsweep. That allowed him to get O'Haire to the mat, where his feet couldn't do any damage. That was the strategy Platoon tried to employ but O'Haire, who is a lot stronger than most people think, was able to fight him off and catch him with a back elbow to the face followed by a jumping spin kick to the head. As Platoon tried to sit up, O'Haire charged and kicked him right in the chest as hard as he could. He then tried for what appeared to be a rear naked choke but Platoon rolled free and gave O'Haire a taste of his own medicine, kicking him right in the face. He then picked him up and delivered a jackhammer slam into a cover but O'Haire got his shoulder up at 2. With the pace of the match picking up, Platoon shot O'Haire to the corner but ran into an elbow and O'Haire followed that with an incredible roundhouse kick to the face and that got him the 3 count. Match Time: 8:14 Cole: "Oh what a kick, he put Platoon's lights out with that one"! Ventura: "Wait..... what the hell"?! O'HAIRE's CELEBRATION WAS CUT SHORT AS RED SMOKE FILLED THE RING AND THE BOOGEYMAN CAME OUT OF NOWHERE WITH WORMS IN HIS MOUTH. O'HAIRE LEFT THE RING AS IF HE'D SEEN A GHOST AND HE GOT INTO THE CROWD. Cole: "It's the Boogeyman! O'Haire's hightailing it"! Ventura: "Now that's disgusting! What the hell is wrong with this guy"?! Cole: "Sean O'Haire wants nothing to do with the Boogeyman"! COMMERCIAL BREAK............ A COMMERCIAL FOR PURINA DOG CHOW IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR BLOCKBUSTER VIDEO. RETURN FROM BREAK....... WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, A SPOTLIGHT IS SHOWN ON EDDIE SAINT JAMES, WHO IS SITTING IN THE CROWD WITH A MIDDLE AGED MAN. Cole: "Welcome back to PrimeTime folks and it seems that we're gonna have to deal with this creep again". Eddie Saint James: "Hello everyone, and welcome to another confessional. Tonight, I am here with Jeff, who has decided to talk with The Saint in order to get something off his chest. So Jeff..... whenever you're ready". Jeff: "Okay, well about two years ago, my wife and I got a divorce over my problem with alcohol. I decided that I wanted to get my life back together, so I checked into rehab. Everything was going great until last weekend". Saint James: (acting concerned) "And then what happened Jeff"? Jeff (tears rolling down his cheek): "I had my first beer in almost two years and then I had another, and another and another until......... Saint James: "Go on Jeff". Jeff: "I woke up next to my best friend, who is a male and I'm...... I'm pretty sure something happened". JEFF PUTS HIS HEAD DOWN IN HIS HANDS AND IS CRYING UNCONTROLLABLY AS SAINT JAMES GETS A DISGUSTED LOOK ON HIS FACE AND MOVES AWAY. Saint James: "You're pathetic! I hope he was at least of age! Ya see Vlad, you mess with me and my business again, you'll look just like this idiot here"! A NEW THEME SONG HITS AS SAINT JAMES LEAVES THE CROWD AND WALKS UP THE RAMP WITH HIS HANDS IN THE AIR, TO A LOT OF BOOS. Cole: "What the hell is this, Jerry Springer"?! Ventura: "It's sure different than anything we're used to"! Cole: "It's just a matter of time, just a matter of time before someone puts this jerk in his place! But what does he have on Vlad"? BACKSTAGE....... CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW A DOUBLE DOORWAY SWING OPEN AND A CREW OF FOUR MEN PUSHES THROUGH AN OLD WOODEN CASKET WITH STRANGE SYMBOLS OF A MOON AND A STAR ON THEM. Cole: "What the hell is this"? Ventura: "Looks like a casket to me". Cole: "Ah ya think? I mean, what is it doing here"?! "WOOOOOO" IS HEARD AND THE CROWD COMES TO THEIR FEET AS RIC FLAIR MAKES HIS WAY OUT IN A VERY NICE SUIT. Ventura: "Woooooo! It's the Nature Boy"! Cole: "And the fans here in Wheeling are on their feet, paying their respects"! Ric Flair: "Last week, the Nature Boy was given a chance to go and fight for the Universal title at WrestleMania! But no, someone had to ruin it! Someone who thinks he deserves the world, but he hasn't earned an ounce of respect in his time here! You all know who I'm talking about! Muhammad Hassan, get your ass out here"! FLAIR REMOVES HIS COAT AND THROWS IT TO THE MAT BEFORE ROLLING UP HIS SLEEVES. Cole: "Flair's lookin' for a fight"! MUHAMMAD HASSAN's MUSIC HITS AND THE CROWD IMMEDIATELY STARTS TO BOO WHEN DAIVARI COMES OUT, WITH A MICROPHONE. DAIVARI THEN BEGINS TO BERATE FLAIR IN A FOREIGN LANGUAGE, PROBABLY PAKISTANI WHEN FROM BEHIND, HASSAN ATTACKS HIM AFTER COMING THROUGH THE CROWD. Ventura: "Ah here we go! We should've seen the sneak attack coming! We can't expect Hassan to be a man about this"! HASSAN GOT IN A FEW GOOD SHOTS AS DAIVARI CAME DOWN TO THE RING TO HELP OUT. BUT FLAIR WOULDN'T STAY DOWN AND AFTER CATCHING DAIVARI WITH A MULE KICK, HE GRABBED HASSAN BY THE GENITALS BEFORE JUST POPPING HIM WITH A STIFF RIGHT. HASSAN ROLLED OUT OF THE RING AND HE AND DAIVARI WERE OUT OF THERE AS THE CROWD LOUDLY CHEERED. Cole: "But look at who's standing in the ring! Ric Flair is standing tall against the whiniest superstar in TWF history"! Ventura: "I like that Cole! Whiniest superstar in TWF history, that fits Hassan well"! HASSAN AND DAIVARI LOOKED BACK AT FLAIR IN ANGER BUT FLAIR WAS STILL ALL FIRED UP. COMMERCIAL BREAK......... A COMMERCIAL FOR BURGER KING IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR VERIZON WIRELESS. RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE...... PRIMETIME RETURNS TO SHOW EDGE IN THE RING IN STREET CLOTHES WITH THE UNIVERSAL TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. Ventura: "Welcome back to TWF PrimeTime and ladies and gentlemen, take a good long look at your brand new Universal champion"! Edge: "So I bet you're all wondering who my special guest is tonight, aren't ya? Well, I wanted it to be someone really special, ya know, the whole hometown hero thing. But then I got to thinkin', who the hell is from West Virginia? I mean, this place truly is the cesspool of America! THE CROWD BOOS But, I found someone who will work just fine. He's a wrestling "legend" and a man quite honestly, I grew up watching. So without further ado, let's bring him out, Beautiful Bobby Eaton"! THE OLD MIDNIGHT EXPRESS MUSIC HITS AND EATON COMES TO THE RING, LOOKING A TOUCH OUT OF SHAPE. Cole: "It's Bobby Eaton, I remember this guy"! Ventura: "A member of arguably the greatest tag team in wrestling history". Edge: "How ya doin' tonight Bobby? Excited to be on a wrestling show? It's only been what, fifteen years? Anyway, I thought I'd have you come out here tonight so you can take a good look at my new Universal title. I mean, did you ever think I'd reach this level? I know there are a lot of "experts" out there who never thought I would. Look, check this out. Honest to God, I was compared to this guy all the time when I first came up. I teamed with Christian and we drew a lot of comparisons to you and old, whatever his name was, didn't we? EATON NODS HIS HEAD I was the strong suit of the team of course and then we decided to branch out on our own. Remember when you tried to go solo Bobby"? Cole: "Does this have a point"? Edge: "I do..... and you never got close to winning a world title! HE HOLDS THE TITLE UP IN HIS FACE. Matter of fact, you make me sick, guys like you disgust me because I'm sure you were one of those who thought I'd be stuck on the mid card my entire career! Ya know what, leave the ring, just leave the ring, you have no business being in the same ring as me! EATON STANDS THERE WITH HIS HANDS OUT AS IF TO ASK EDGE WHAT THIS IS ABOUT. Fine, you don't want to leave, then I will". EDGE PUTS THE MIC AND THE TITLE ON THE MAT BUT THEN, HE TURNS AND JUST SPEARS EATON BEFORE YELLING SOME OBSCENITIES AT HIM. Cole: "Oh come on! What the hell is Edge trying to prove"?! Ventura: "I don't get this at all"! "METALINGUS" BY ALTERBRIDGE PLAYS AND EDGE LEAVES TO A LOT OF HEAT, RAISING THE TITLE IN THE AIR AS A FEW OFFICIALS COME DOWN TO CHECK ON EATON. Cole: "Edge is out of his mind! He thinks since he holds that title, he can do whatever the hell he wants! Bobby Eaton didn't deserve this"! TWF RE-WIND SHOWS BRADSHAW's LAST NIGHT ON RAMPAGE WHERE HE CAME OUT TO CUT A PROMO BUT ENDED UP TAKING AN "F-U" FROM JOHN CENA BEFORE BEING INFORMED BY MICK FOLEY THAT HE HAD BEEN TRADED TO PRIMETIME. BACK TO LIVE ACTION, BRADSHAW's MUSIC PLAYS AND A WHITE STRETCH LIMOSINE WITH THE LETTERS "JBL" ON ONE OF THE DOORS PULLS INTO THE ARENA. Cole: "What is this now"? Ventura: "Does that limo have horns on it"? THE BACK DOOR OPENS AND BRADSHAW STEPS OUT WEARING A COWBOY HAT AND A NICE BUSINESS SUIT. HE MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING AND ASKS FOR A MICROPHONE. Cole: "Who is this guy trying to fool"? Bradshaw: "Good evening everyone! My name is John Bradshaw Layfield but from this day forward, you can refer to me as JBL! Tonight is my first night on PrimeTime and I just know that this division of the TWF will provide the hospitality that Rampage did not. And I know that you fans, unlike the fans of Rampage, will be able to recognize greatness when you see it. So please......... JUST THEN, THE CASKET THAT WAS SEEN EARLIER IS WHEELED DOWN TO THE RING BY THE SAME FOUR MEN. JBL LOOKS A LITTLE UPSET. Cole: "There's that casket again". Ventura: "What is it doing out here"?! "BACK IN BLACK" BY AC/DC FILLS THE LOUDSPEAKERS AND JORDAN ROCKWELL COMES OUT TO AN AMAZING RESPONSE. JBL LEAVES THE RING AND HE AND ROCKWELL GIVE EACH OTHER A LONG STARE BEFORE ROCKWELL GETS INTO THE RING. Cole: "I don't know what to make of this. We have a casket out here and now, Jordan Rockwell"! Ventura: "Well he did say he was going to outperform The Undertaker's entire career in just a few weeks". A FAMILIAR SOUNDING ENTRANCE TUNE HITS AND KAMALA COMES OUT WEARING HIS MASK AND PATTING HIS BELLY AND WITH HIM IS HIS MASKED HANDLER, KIM CHEE. KAMALA LOOKED LIKE HE'D SEEN A GHOST WHEN HE SAW THE CASKET BUT KIM CHEE GOT HIM INTO THE RING. Cole: "Oh look at this..... it's Kamala"! Ventura: "Kamala did have a very brief run in the TWF, but I can't figure out why he's here tonight". Cole: "I can. Early in The Undertaker's career in another organization, he had a casket match with Kamala and now Rockwell wants to duplicate or in his words, outperform that feat"! Jordan Rockwell vs. Kamala w/ Kim Chee As soon as the bell sounded, the two men locked up and the gargantuan Kamala slung Rockwell across the ring before patting his belly and going into a very weird noise, almost like a mating call. Rockwell came back with some hard right hands and a running forearm to the face. With Kamala trapped in the corner, he climbed to the middle turnbuckle and hammered him 10 times as the crowd counted along. Kamala stumbled into a bodyslam attempt but Rockwell couldn't quite get him up and he fell right on top of him. Kamala then hit the ropes, looking for his big splash but nobody was home. When he got up, Rockwell hit him with a move we haven't seen for awhile, the "Extreme Measures" and he hooked the leg for the 3 count. After the match, Kim Chee came into the ring but he caught an Extreme Measures for his troubles as well. Match Time: 4:15 Cole: "And just like that, this thing is over"! Ventura: "But wait a minute, he's not done". ROCKWELL ASKED THE MEN TO OPEN THE LID OF THE CASKET AND THEY DID AS THE FRANCHISE ROLLED THE HUGE CARCAS OF KAMALA ACROSS THE RING BEFORE JUST DROPPING HIM INTO THE OPEN CASKET. STANDING ON THE APRON, HE CLOSED THE LID AS "BACK IN BLACK" PLAYED AGAIN. Ventura: "Well, did he outperform the deadman"?! Cole: "It's hard to say, I just hope Rockwell knows what he's doing, he may very well be playing with fire"! COMMERCIAL BREAK......... A PROMO FOR WRESTLEMANIA 7 IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A COMMERCIAL FOR eBay. RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE..... BOBBY LASHLEY's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A VERY LOUD OVATION, COMPLETE WITH PYRO. Cole: "It's time for our final match in the first round of the Oppurtunity Knocks tournament and here comes the man I like to refer to simply as the beast"! Ventura: "We've already seen Batista advance tonight, which one of these men is gonna join him"! "BURN IN MY LIGHT" BY MERCY DRIVE HITS AND RANDY ORTON STROLLS OUT AND DOES HIS FAMOUS POSE AS THE CROWD BOOS AND PYRO FLOWS DOWN FROM ABOVE. Cole: "Well clearly this was the most intruiging first round matchup and it will be the biggest test of the young career of Lashley to this point"! Ventura: "Lashley is like you said, a beast but when you combine athleticism along with ring savvy and wrestling knowledge, I don't think you can find a more complete package than Randy Orton". Oppurtunity Knocks Tournament 1st Round Bobby Lashley vs. Randy Orton As expected, this was a great match and the crowd loved every minute of it, most watching from the edge of their seats. Orton did all he could to try and take away the power that Lashley clearly possesses. But after getting undercut and flipped into the air, things didn't look good for Orton as he found himself on the receiving end of a belly to belly throw. Lashley kept the pressure on with slams and suplexes and really is showing himself to be a modern day suplex machine. But Orton got back into it with a simple thumb to the eyes followed by a standing dropkick. After hitting the ropes, he smashed Lashley with a flying forearm and then slowed him down with chokes and rest holds. Lashley was in a reverse chinlock but a "Bobby" chant broke out in the crowd and he got to one knee, elbowing Orton in the gut before getting to both feet and connecting with another elbow, this one breaking the hold. Lashley then hit the ropes but Orton was waiting with his dropkick, maybe the best in all of wrestling. Orton then went to the top rope and waited for Lashley to get up. But what came next was one of the most impressive things seen in the TWF in some time. Orton flew off with his crossbody block but Lashley rolled through it and kept a hold of Orton, standing up with him and throwing him over his head with a fallaway slam. Lashley then went to pick him up but Orton lowblowed him. Only problem was referee Mike Chioda saw it and called for the bell. Match Time: 8:21 Cole: "Wait a minute, I think the referee has disqualified Orton"! Ventura: "For what, what'd he do"?! Cole: "Oh my, look at this....... AS ORTON ARGUED WITH CHIODA OVER THE DECISION, LASHLEY GOT UP WITH A VERY FIERCE LOOK IN HIS EYES. ORTON TURNED AROUND AND CAUGHT A KICK TO THE STOMACH BEFORE LASHLEY LIFTED HIM UP FOR THE DOMINATOR DROP. FORTUNATELY FOR ORTON, HE ESCAPED AND THEN TRIED TO GO FOR THE "RKO" BUT LASHLEY PUSHED HIM AND HE WENT OVER THE TOP ROPE. ORTON THEN GOT UP AND LOOKED AT LASHLEY WHOSE MUSIC THEN HIT. Ventura: "Orton is in disbelief, this guy is a beast"! Cole: "Lashley has advanced to the next round and I don't know if anyone can stop him"! OFF AIR.......
