WHEN PRIMETIME GOES LIVE, FOOTAGE IS SHOWN FROM THE LAST EDITION OF PRIMETIME OF RIC FLAIR CHALLENGING JOHN CENA TO A MATCH AT MELTDOWN FOR THE UNIVERSAL TITLE, AND CENA GLADLY ACCEPTING.

PRIMETIME's MONTAGE VIDEO THEN ROLLS AS "RAP SUPERSTAR" PLAYS. WHEN THE ARENA COMES INTO THE SHOT, PYRO EXPLODES ON THE SET AND THE CAMERA PANS AROUND THE STANDS, CATCHING COUNTLESS SIGNS IN FAVOR OF RIC FLAIR.

MOMENTS LATER, "DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS" BY DISTURBED HITS AND HIGH OCTANE COMES OUT TO A BIG POP.

Michael Cole: "Welcome to another edition of PrimeTime here on FOX as we are live from the Greensboro Coliseum"!

JBL: "How appropriate is it that we are in the middle of Flair country fresh off Ric Flair's challenge to John Cena"?

MY NAME FINLAY.... AND I LOVE TO FIGHT" IS HEARD AND FINLAY's MUSIC HITS AND BOOS ARE SOON HEARD AS HE COMES OUT, CARRYING HIS SHILLELAGH.

Cole: "Both Cena and Flair will see action tonight, but first, we have round three of High Octane and Finlay"!

JBL: "The first two rounds belong to Finlay and I don't expect the third to be any different".

Cole: "Ever since High Octane was drafted over from Rampage, it has been Finlay who has made his life hell, John".

JBL: "Finlay told High Octane that PrimeTime isn't the walk in the park that Rampage is! I agreed with that statement then, and I haven't changed my stance one bit"!

"High Octane" Damion West vs. Finlay

Really needing a win here, High Octane seemed intent on taking more chances, and he got 2 near falls on quick rollups, but Finlay was able to avoid a spinning heel kick and nearly behead West with a clothesline. After a kneedrop right across the forehead, Finlay took his forearm and just dug it into the face of West. He then pulled West up and whipped him to the corner, following in with a clothesline. West was knocked for a loop as Finlay picked him up for a backdrop suplex, but Octane flipped off his shoulders and delivered a jumping bulldog. Following a corkscrew legdrop, Octane positioned himself in the corner, but Finlay got up and fell back to the mat, rolling out of the way as he knew the superkick was coming. Octane went over to grab him, but Finlay buried a right hand into his abdomen before throwing him shoulder first into the steel ring post. After a side backbreaker, Finlay made a lateral press, but West was up at 2. Finlay pulled High Octane up and yelled that his blue hair was "a joke" but Octane reversed an irish whip and dropped Finlay with a dropkick. He then hit the ropes and kicked Finlay right square in the chest as he tried to sit up. West went to the top rope and flew off as Finlay was getting up but Finlay's veteran instincts allowed him to move out of the way. West landed on his feet, but his right knee immediately buckled and he grabbed it in pain. Finlay capitalized and picked West up, depositing him with the "Celtic Cross" before rolling him over for the 3 count.

Match Time: 6:50

JBL: "Again, Michael! Finlay did it again"!

Cole: "High Octane may have suffered some sort of freak injury here folks, that did not look good"!

REFEREE MICKEY HENSON TALKED TO HIGH OCTANE AS FINLAY LEFT TO HIS MUSIC AND A SHOWER OF BOOS. OCTANE, STILL GRABBING AT HIS KNEE, WAS ABLE TO GET UP UNDER HIS OWN POWER.

JBL: "High Octane is a former three time TWF World champion. What does that say for the fighting Irishman"?

Cole: "It's a good sign that High Octane was able to get up on his own.... let's just hope he's not seriously hurt.

A PRIMETIME PROMO GRAPHIC POPS UP WITH THE BLOOD BROTHERS HOLDING THEIR TAG TEAM TITLES ON ONE SIDE, AND THE HARDY's ON THE OTHER.

Take a look at this, fans.... still to come tonight, the TWF Tag Team champions, The Blood Brothers, will take on the Hardy's"!

WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, GABRIEL CROSS IS SHOWN IN AN UNKNOWN LOCATION, DOING SOME JUDO TRAINING AND PRACTICING SEVERAL TECHNIQUES WITH A PERSONAL TRAINER.

BACK TO LIVE ACTION, THE HIGHLANDERS ARE IN THE RING WHEN "BURN IN MY LIGHT" BY MERCY DRIVE HITS AND RANDY ORTON COMES OUT TO PLENTY OF HEAT.

Cole: "Gabriel Cross shown there getting some training in and John, it has been officially signed that Cross will face Umaga on the big TWF/UFC Fight Night event"!

JBL: "Please remind me to say a prayer for Cross before that".

"YOU THINK YOU KNOW ME" IS HEARD BEFORE "METALINGUS" BY ALTER BRIDGE KICKS UP AND EDGE STEPS OUT FROM THE BACK TO SOME SERIOUS BOOS.

Cole: "Big tag team match set here as Orton and Edge will take on the former TWF Tag Team champions, The Highlanders".

JBL: "Well we've seen a lot of miscommunication between Edge and Orton lately and I look for them to get back on the same page tonight against these two kilt wearing freaks"!

Edge and Randy Orton vs. The Highlanders

Rory and Robbie played paper, rock, scissors to see who would start the match, but Robbie didn't seem to catch on. As Rory tried to explain it to him, Edge attacked Robbie from behind before dropping Rory with a right hand. Edge then shot Robbie to the ropes but he ducked a clothesline before sticking Edge with several quick jabs followed by an inverted atomic drop. Robbie made the tag to his cousin Rory who came in and twisted the left arm of Edge, but Edge used his free hand to punch Rory in the mouth. After a big clothesline, he made the tag to Orton who came in and drilled him with a standing dropkick. Orton had some words for Robbie before using his boot to choke Rory. After a big suplex, Orton went outside to climb the turnbuckle. When Rory got to his feet, he flew off with a crossbody block, but Rory moved out of the way. He rolled to his corner where he slapped the hand of Robbie. Robbie came in off a big cheer from the crowd and he was all over Orton with right hands. Off an irish whip, Robbie caught Orton with a big backbody drop. Rory came into the ring and the Highlanders were setting up for the battering ram but Edge came into the ring to break it up. Rory threw a right hand but Edge ducked and dumped him over the top rope. Orton then pulled Robbie down with his backbreaker across his body before tagging Edge in and Edge delivered the spear to get the 1......2..........3.

Match Time: 6:33

Cole: "Oh what a spear! Edge and Orton have gotten the win"!

JBL: "He speared him all the way back to Scotland, Michael"!

Cole: "Wait.... look at Edge"!

ORTON HAD HIS BACK TURNED AND IT LOOKED LIKE EDGE WAS GOING TO TRY TO SPEAR HIM. BUT ORTON TURNED AROUND TO SEE EDGE AND THE TWO HAD WORDS, WALKING TOWARDS EACH OTHER. SUDDENLY, THEY STARTED TRADING PUNCHES AND THE FANS LOVED WHAT THEY WERE SEEING.

JBL: "What the hell?! You guys won the match"!

FINALLY, OFFICIALS FROM THE BACK HIT THE RING TO PULL THE TWO MEN APART BUT THEY WERE CLEARLY READY TO KEEP GOING.

Cole: "It looks like things between Edge and Orton have finally broken down"!

JBL: "I don't believe this.... maybe I need to go talk to them"!

BACKSTAGE AREA........

HIGH OCTANE IS SHOWN IN THE BACK, WHEN PJ CASH APPROACHES.

PJ Cash: "Well what do we have here? The great High Octane Damion West, the man that a little over a year ago was main eventing Wrestlemania. I hate to be the bearer of bad news Mister West, but lately the only place your career has been going is south".

High Octane (laughs): "Oh, it must be the self made millionaire. Don't you have something to do, or do you just have to wait for the show to get over so you can take the ring down"?

Cash: "Oh, you're a comedian too. Too bad the only joke around here is someone who has lost three times in a row to Finlay".

West: "Are you trying to make some sort of challenge here or something, cause this is a pretty piss poor attempt if you ask me".

Cash: "Well actually, I came here to ask if you might want..... some advice. Ya know, the kind of advice that could only come from someone who made himself rich on the stock market. As for you, your stock is falling".

West: "Okay, how about you put your money where your mouth is? I will face Finlay one more time, and if I win, you pay me some of that money you have..... say ten thousand dollars".

Cash: "Ten thousand dollars? No problem..... but here's the catch. If you lose, you lose your career. I don't ever want to see you around here again.... if you lose to Finlay one more time".

West: "You got it".

HIGH OCTANE WALKS AWAY AND CASH IS LEFT WITH A VERY SATISFIED LOOK ON HIS FACE.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "NO LEAF CLOVER" BY METALLICA HITS AND EDDIE SAINT JAMES IS LED TO THE RING BY MONICA AND THE PAIR IS LOUDLY BOOED.

Cole: "Wow.... can you believe what Damion West just did"?

JBL: "I don't know if I'd be willing to put my career on the line against a guy who is 3-0 against me, for ten thousand dollars! High Octane doesn't have a brain in his head"!

"OOOOH CHAVO" IS HEARD AND CHAVO GUERRERO COMES OUT TO A BIG POP AS HIS MUSIC PLAYS.

Cole: "Interesting matchup here, John, as Chavo Guerrero will try to derail The Saint, who has been on a tear since taking Johnny Hazard out at Payback and directly following our next commercial break, we will have an update on Hazard's condition"!

JBL: "Never in my life have I seen someone hit another man with something like a shovel! Johnny Hazard will be lucky if he ever wrestles again"!

Eddie Saint James w/ Monica vs. Chavo Guerrero

The two men locked up after the bell sounded and it was Chavo who struck first, using a deep arm drag to toss The Saint across the ring. The Saint got up and charged in, but Chavo used a drop toehold and nearly got on the STF. The Saint was able to get up though and he kicked Chavo square in the face. The Saint then went into his roughhouse style, knocking Chavo around ring with punches and kicks. He then got Chavo up for a nasty Canadian backbreaker. A cover was made, but Chavo was up at 2. The Saint pulled him up and whipped him to the ropes but Chavo dove through his legs and jumped on his shoulders, locking in a sleeper hold. The Saint backed up into the corner to break the hold before pulling Chavo right into a stiff clothesline. After several stomps to the head and body, The Saint sent Chavo to the corner but walked right into a foot to the face. Chavo immediately lifted himself to the top turnbuckle but The Saint knocked his feet out from under him and lifted him up for the "Death to Humanity", covering him for the 3 count.

Match Time: 6:41

Cole: "Chalk up another win for Eddie Saint James. What a nasty move that was".

JBL: "Eddie Saint James just defeated an experienced veteran with relative ease. Look out PrimeTime, this man is dangerous".

Cole: "And fans, you don't want to go away because coming up next, we will have an update on the condition of Johnny Hazard".

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

RETURN FROM BREAK.....

CAMERAS ARE ON THE SCENE AT METHODIST HOSPITAL IN OMAHA, NEBRASKA. ONCE INSIDE, MARIA IS SHOWN WITH A MAN.

Maria: "Hello fans, tonight, I have been given the special assignment to come check on the status of Johnny Hazard. Here with me now is his doctor, Doctor Gerwitz.

Dr. Gerwicki: "It's actually Gerwicki, but simple mistake".

Maria: "Okay, doctor Gerwicki, how is Johnny doing"?

Dr. Gerwicki: "Well, he is able to take visitors, but it has to be on a limited basis. Being hit in the back of the head with that shovel seems to have done some serious neurological damage".

Maria: "Well.... can we go in and see him"?

Dr. Gerwicki: "Yes, but only for a minute or so".

CAMERAS FOLLOW AS DR. GERWICKI PUSHES A DOOR OPEN, AND MARIA ENTERS THE ROOM. JOHNNY HAZARD IS SHOWN LYING IN A HOSPITAL BED, HIS EYES HALF OPEN.

Maria: "Hi, Johnny, how are you.

JOHNNY CONTINUES TO LOOK AT HER.

Gimme something, a wink or something. The fans of the TWF are all wondering how you've been".

Johnny Hazard: "The who? The what"?

Dr. Gerwicki: "Okay, Maria, I think we better leave him be".

DR. GERWICKI AND MARIA LEAVE THE ROOM AS THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE GREENSBORO COLISEUM.

BILL CUTTING IS SHOWN IN THE RING, GETTING LOOSE ALONG WITH GREGORY HELMS WHEN "WOOOOOOOO" IS HEARD AND RIC FLAIR COMES OUT TO EASILY THE BIGGEST CHEER ALL NIGHT. THE CROWD OF OVER 9,000 IS ALL ON THEIR FEET, SHOWING RESPECT FOR THE NATURE BOY AS HE WALKS DOWN THE AISLE IN A BLACK ROBE.

Cole: "Well that was a little weird".

JBL: "Johnny Hazard is still knocked for a loop, Michael"!

Cole: "We will continue to check on the status of Johnny Hazard and everyone here at the TWF wishes him a full recovery but right now, it's time for what these folks came to see"!

JBL: "Like I said at the top of the show, we are smack dab in the middle of Flair Country..... these people love him"!

Cole: "And with good reason. Flair is considered by many to be the best ever and at MeltDown, he has a chance to sit atop the mountain one more time"!

JBL: "I'm anxious to see how he performs here tonight. We might see the Flair from twenty years ago with all the momentum he has on his side"!

Ric Flair vs. Bill Cutting w/ Gregory Helms

As Flair took off his robe, the young, oppurtunistic Cutting attacked him from behind, drawing plenty of heat from the fans. After ripping Flair's robe right off his back, Cutting stomped on it a few times before clotheslining Flair right over the top rope to the floor. But as Cutting had words with referee Charles Robinson, Flair grabbed his leg and yanked him under the bottom rope before blistering his chest with 3 hard knifedge chops. After ramming Cutting face first into the ring apron, Flair rolled him back into the ring where he dropped a big knee on his head. Flair then went into his trademark strut, but from his back, Cutting kicked his legs out from under him before delivering a quick legdrop. After pulling Flair up, Cutting rocked him with 3 right hands. Flair fell to one knee and was begging Cutting off. But suddenly, Flair got in a quick thumb to the eye before lifting Cutting up and delivering a big shin breaker. Flair held onto the right foot the entire time and went right into the Figure Four. Before he knew it, Cutting was in the center of the ring, in Flair's trademark hold, and his only option was to tap out.

Match Time: 3:46

Cole: "Now that was classic Nature Boy"!

JBL: "You're damn right it was! He's still the dirtiest player in the game"!

Cole: "A big win for Flair heading into MeltDown and while John Cena has all the respect in the world for Flair, he's gotta know he's more than willing to bend the rules"!

FLAIR STOOD IN THE RING, ABSORBING ANOTHER HUGE APPLAUSE AS HIS MUSIC PLAYED. CUTTING AND HELMS ANGRILY WALKED UP THE RAMP, LOOKING BACK.

JBL: "Bend the rules? This man is willing to do a lot more than that and I can't imagine how far he'll go to become Universal champion"!

BACKSTAGE......

IN THE BACK, TWF AGENT TOM BRANDI IS SHOWN AND SEAN O'HAIRE COMES UP WEARING NOTHING BUT A TOWEL AROUND HIS WAIST.

Tom Brandi: "Can I help you, Sean"?

Sean O'Haire: "Uh..... we have a bit of a problem".

THE SHOT RETURNS TO THE RING, WHERE RENE DUPREE's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND HE ENTERS ALONG WITH DAWN MARIE.

Cole (laughing): "I wonder if the problem is what's underneath that towel"!

JBL: "Oh for God sake..... you of all people should not be making a comment like that! I swear, if I ever hear something like that again, I will embarrass you to the point where they get some jackass like Mike Tenay to sit next to me"!

THE FANS GO NUTS WHEN "THIS FIRE BURNS" BY KILLSWITCH ENGAGE COMES ON AND CM PUNK POPS OUT WITH THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST.

Cole: "Go ahead, take your best shot. Here comes the reigning Intercontinental champion and even though this is a non-title match, CM Punk has some pretty stiff competition tonight".

JBL: "How can someone from France be considered stiff competition? This clown is more worried about getting hit in his pretty little face that he is winning a damn match"!

Cole: "Actually, Rene Dupree has had a lot of success over the years".

JBL: "Somebody really needs to go to Dawn Marie and ask her what she sees in this Frenchman"!

Non-Title Match

Rene Dupree w/ Dawn Marie vs. Intercontinental Champion: CM Punk

Dupree's advantage in size and strength was able to get him in control early as he dominated the first few minutes of the match. After a big powerslam, he performed his French Tickler dance, which really drew the ire of the crowd. After a big elbow drop, Dupree got Punk up for the "French Bomb" but Punk slipped off his shoulders and delivered a big reverse DDT. Punk's scrappy technique allowed him to take plenty of steam out of Dupree and after blocking a right hand, he came back with 2 backhands of his own followed by a big round kick to the temple. Punk went to lock in the Anaconda Vice, but Dupree scrambled away. Punk allowed Dupree to get to his feet and he threw a kick, but Dupree caught his leg. After spinning Punk around, Dupree threw a clothesline but Punk caught him under the arm and delivered the Uranage. The fans were loving it as it looked like Punk was moments away from another win. But suddenly, the lights in the arena went off. Nothing could be seen, but several strange sounds were heard. The lights were off for about 45 seconds and when they came back on, Punk was the only one in the ring, covered in a red substance. Punk wiped his hand across his chest and looked like he'd seen a ghost when he looked at it.

Match Time: 5:40

Cole: "What the hell is going on?! What's that red stuff"?!

JBL: "It's a bloodbath"!

Cole: "CM Punk looks a little uneasy after this..... don't go away"!

A COMMERCIAL FOR THE NATIONAL DRUNK DRIVING PROGRAM IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR SNICKERS.

RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE.....

WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, SHANE McMAHON IS SHOWN IN HIS OFFICE. THERE IS A KNOCK AT THE DOOR AND TWF AGENT TOM BRANDI WALKS IN.

Tom Brandi: "Sir, I've been informed by the Blood Brothers that they will not be able to compete tonight".

Shane McMahon: "Oh really, and why is that"?

Brandi: "I wasn't given a reason".

Shane: "Well then why don't you go inform them that if they don't compete tonight.... they'll be stripped of their titles".

BRANDI LEAVES THE OFFICE AS THE SHOT GOES TO ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE JOE COREY IS WITH KATO AND SONNY ONOO. JUST THEN, BOBBY LASHLEY WALKS UP.

Bobby Lashley: "Hey Corey.......

Joe Corey: "Oh look, it's my friend Bobby Lashley.... the man who prevented me from getting a Universal title shot at MeltDown".

Lashley: "Well now that our match for the ECW World title at MeltDown is official, I thought I'd lay out a little challenge for next week. Since you and your boys thought it'd be cool to jump me last week, I got someone to watch my back. So you choose a partner, and I'll bring my partner, and we'll have ourselves a little tag team match".

AFTER ISSUING THE CHALLENGE, LASHLEY STARES KATO DOWN.

Corey: "Hey.... I'm right here.

LASHLEY AND COREY LOCK EYES.

And I accept your stupid little challenge. There's nothing I'd like to do more than to beat the hell out of you before MeltDown, and then to do it again at MeltDown".

COREY, KATO AND ONOO WALK PAST LASHLEY AS THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE RING.

THE CROWD LOUDLY POPS WHEN THE HARDY's MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT, HEADING TO THE RING.

Cole: "So we now know that Joe Corey will face Bobby Lashley with the ECW World title on the line at MeltDown, but what a tag team match that's gonna be"!

JBL: "If I were Corey, I'd call Lashley's bluff! There's no one stupid enough to have Lashley's back against ECW"!

Cole: "Well speaking of ECW, the Blood Brothers are due out for this match and they've been trying to get out of it all night! What's the problem"?!

JBL: "None of your business! The Blood Brothers are the top tag team in the TWF and they've been beating the hell out of people all over the world! Are you really going to question their desire here"?!

"MISERIA CANTARE" BY AFI HITS AND THE BLOOD BROTHERS ARE SLOW TO COME OUT FROM THE ECW ENTRANCE. BUT WHEN THEY DO, THE CROWD BURSTS INTO LAUGHTER AS THEY BOTH HAVE TOWELS AROUND THEIR WAISTS, TRYING TO COVER THEMSELVES UP.

Cole (laughing hysterically): "This is great"!

JBL: "This is not great you moron! What the hell is going in here"!

Cole: "And they have to compete or they lose the titles! They don't even have their titles.... or their little fighting staffs for that matter"!

JBL: "This is not funny, Michael! I'd love to see you go laugh in Dustin Kash or Sean O'Haire's face"!

THE BLOOD BROTHERS CLIMB INTO THE RING, AND EVEN THE HARDY's ARE LAUGHING. MATT AND JEFF EACH GO AND RIP THE TOWELS AWAY FROM THEM, AND KASH AND O'HAIRE ARE LEFT IN THEIR BOXERS. MATT AND JEFF EACH BLOCK A RIGHT HAND AND MATT CLOTHESLINES KASH OVER THE TOP ROPE AS O'HAIRE IS DROPKICKED OUT BY JEFF.

THE FANS LOVE WHAT THEY ARE SEEING AS THE BLOOD BROTHERS GRAB THEIR TOWELS AND WALK BACK UP THE RAMP. BUT JUST THEN, A SEWAGE TRUCK PULLS INTO THE ARENA AT THE TOP OF THE STAGE.

JBL: "Oh my God.... you can't be serious"!

SHAWN MICHAELS POPS OUT FROM ONE SIDE OF THE TRUCK AND JORDAN ROCKWELL IS SEEN DRIVING. MICHAELS IS HOLDING TWO DUFFEL BAGS AND A MICROPHONE.

Shawn Michaels: "I'm gathering that you guys are looking for these.

MICHAELS DUMPS OUT THE BAGS AND IT's THE BLOOD BROTHERS' GEAR.

Hey guys, after what is about to happen to you, just think, at least you didn't get stripped of your titles".

WITH THAT, ROCKWELL ACTIVATES A HOSE ON THE TRUCK AND SPRAYS THE BLOOD BROTHERS DOWN WITH RAW SEWAGE!

JBL: "No way! No way"!

Cole: "Can you smell that?! The Blood Brothers are getting doused with sewage"!

JBL: "These two should be in jail for this! This is absolutely dispicable"!

BEFORE PRIMETIME GOES TO BREAK, THE BLOOD BROTHERS ARE SHOWN AGAIN AND THEY ARE JUST COVERED AND OBVIOUSLY FURIOUS.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR COCA COLA IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR PURINA DOG CHOW.

RETURN FROM BREAK.....

Cole: "Fans we are back on PrimeTime and the stagecrew is still trying to clean up the mess from what we just saw".

A REPLAY IS SHOWN OF THE BLOOD BROTHERS BEING SPRAYED WITH SEWAGE FROM A TRUCK MANNED BY SHAWN MICHAELS AND JORDAN ROCKWELL.

JBL: "I'm completely speechless, Michael. It's the worst thing I've ever seen around here".

KATO IS SHOWN IN THE RING, THROWING SOME PUNCHES AND KICKS TO GET WARM AS HE TAKES INSTRUCTIONS FROM SONNY ONOO.

Cole: "I just find it funny that you're so mad about it".

JBL: "You're damn right I'm mad! This is the TWF, not Barnum and Bailey's circus! Rockwell and Michaels are going to pay for that"!

JUST THEN, "THE TIME IS NOW" HITS AND JOHN CENA COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION, BUT MOST OF IT SEEMS POSITIVE. HE HAS THE UNIVERSAL TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST.

Cole: "Well here comes the man that will face Ric Flair at MeltDown and John, it easily is the biggest match of Cena's career in my mind".

JBL: "He's facing the greatest to ever lace a pair of boots. It's John Cena's chance to become immortal in this business but after what we just saw, I expect to see an aggressive, angry Kato beat the hell out of our Universal champion"!

Non-Title Match

Kato w/ Sonny Onoo vs. Universal Champion: John Cena

Right as Cena slid into the ring, Kato was all over him with kicks to the head and body. Referee Mike Chioda called for the bell to start the match, and the silent assassin of ECW had Cena in plenty of trouble. Cena got to his feet but Kato kept the pressure on with whip kicks to the midsection followed by a stiff knifedge chop. Off an irish whip, Kato caught Cena with a martial arts chop to the throat followed by a Mongolian chop to the head. Kato pulled the champ up and shot him to the corner but Cena avoided a yakuza kick and used a hip toss slam to take Kato down. From there, Cena delivered his spinning sideslam and he had turned things completely into his favor. Sonny Onoo got on the apron and Cena went after him but Kato got up and ran at him. Cena saw him at the last second and used a drop toehold before locking in the STFU. Kato was in the middle of the ring with nowhere to go and just as he was about to tap out, Joe Corey entered the ring and broke it up with a stomp to the back of Cena's head. Chioda called for the bell, disqualifying Kato. Corey and Kato began to beat the hell out of Cena and after a nasty superkick from Kato, Corey set him up for the "Showstopper" but Ric Flair ran out and hit the ring. Corey and Kato quickly scattered as Flair got in the ring.

Match Time: 4:43

AS THE FANS CAME TO THEIR FEET, CENA AND FLAIR STARED AT EACH OTHER BEFORE CENA GOT HIS TITLE AND FLAIR LEFT THE RING.

Cole: "If not for Ric Flair, who knows what would've become of John Cena tonight".

JBL: "I never understand this, Michael. I respect Ric Flair and everything he's ever done, but to help out the man you will face for the title, makes no sense to me".

Cole: "What a night here on PrimeTime..... we'll see you all next time"!

OFF AIR..........
