April 6, 2009
The retired jerseys and championship banners celebrating Kentucky Wildcats basketball hung in the rafters as fans filed into the legendary Rupp arena in anticipation of PrimeTime. The night got started with 3 matches on Uprising:
John Morrison vs. Ricky Ortiz What a great opening match this was between 2 very talented athletes. Trying to make a splash in singles competition, Morrison dictated the pace to Ortiz, who had the crowd on his side. After a frankensteiner off the top rope, Morrison used the ropes as a springboard but Ortiz ducked a flying front kick before putting Morrison down with a DDT. From there, he landed his "Big O" splash and covered Morrison for the slight upset. But after the match, Morrison cut Ortiz's celebration short and put him down with the "Moonlight Drive". Austin Pyromania and Taylor Made vs. Kyle Maggard and J.T. Snow (invitees) Pyromania and Taylor Made really had the crowd going and at one point, Pyro actually yanked the pants of J.T. Snow down, drawing a big laugh from the crowd. Pyromania followed up with a drop toehold before Taylor sprung into the ring with an elbow to the back of the head. Maggard tried to come into the ring but Pyromania took care of him easily. Taylor then shot Snow to the ropes and picked him up over his head just as Pyro grabbed him from the other side and pulled him down into his version of the "Stone Cold Stunner", "Pyrotechnics". Pyromania covered Snow for the easy 3 count. Vladimir Kozlov vs. Chavo Guerrero Kozlov really got a chance to show his superior abilities in this one and he did so against a very experienced veteran competitor. Chavo was no match for the big Russian, falling victim to a belly to belly throw and a nasty push kick to the chest. With Chavo in the corner, Kozlov ran in but missed him and Chavo scored with a falling neckbreaker followed by a basement dropkick. He then went to the top rope but Kozlov got to his feet. Chavo took to the air but Kozlov caught him and turned him over with a vicious powerslam to get the 3 count to bring a quick halt to the match. Kozlov's music played and the 'Moscow Mauler' left to plenty of boos as the stage crew got things set up for PrimeTime. Over a loudspeaker, the public address announcer told fans the rules of the evening before saying they had 30 seconds before they would go live on the FOX network! PRIMETIME GOES LIVE
WHEN PRIMETIME TAKES THE AIR ON FOX, STILL IMAGES FROM THE ROYAL RUMBLE ARE SHOWN FROM THE TRIPLE THREAT MATCH FOR THE UNIVERSAL TITLE, DEPICTING EDGE SURVIVING AND RETAINING THE GOLD. THE LAST SHOW SHOWS AN EXHAUSTED EDGE LEAVING THE RING WITH THE BELT. "RAP SUPERSTAR" THEN STARTS UP AS DOES THE OPENING MONTAGE FOR PRIMETIME. THE RUPP ARENA COMES INTO THE SHOT AND ORANGE PYRO SPRAYS TOWARDS THE CEILING. THE FANS INSIDE ARE GOING NUTS AS A PROMO GRAPHIC FEATURING EDGE WITH THE UNIVERSAL TITLE POPS UP. Michael Cole: "If you missed the 2009 Royal Rumble, you missed a huge event that saw Edge somehow retain the Universal title"! Honky Tonk Man: "He retained the title because he's the best the TWF has to offer, Michael, plain and simple and tonight, he will have his own champion's address, right here in Kentucky"! A LOUD POP EMANATES IN THE CROWD WHEN "THIS FIRE BURNS" BY KILLSWITCH ENGAGE COMES ON AND CM PUNK STEPS OUT FROM THE BACK. Cole: "Well I have no idea what that champion's address will be about, but we are getting right to the action here tonight in Lexington with a first round match in the tournament to determine a new number one contender for the Intercontinental title"! HTM: "And this is a man who knows what it's like to be Intercontinental champion". "IT's TIME" STARTS UP AND THE BEAUTIFUL TALIA LEADS GREGORY HELMS OUT TO MOSTLY ALL BOOS. Cole: "Well this should be a great match. Like you said partner, CM Punk is a former Intercontinental champion and I've always felt that Gregory Helms is just a half step away from being in the same position! Perhaps tonight is his night". HTM: "Gregory Helms has all the tools to be at that next level, that's always been obvious. It's just a matter of time before he gets there and if CM Punk makes one mistake, Helms will eliminate him from this tournament". CM Punk vs. Gregory Helms w/ Talia As the bell sounded to starts the match, Punk and Helms moved towards each other, ready to lock up. Helms then stuck a finger in his eye and began to work over Punk with several hard kicks before shooting him to the ropes and nailing him with a flying back elbow. Helms went for the cover but Punk pushed him out just after 1. Helms quickly went for the shining wizard but Punk ducked it and got him on his shoulders in the electric chair before falling backwards. Punk then used his feet for some offense when Helms got back up, punishing him with kicks to the body before smashing him with a roundhouse to the head. Punk went for the cover and got a near fall. He then got Helms up and on his shoulders but Helms got free and delivered a nice reverse DDT. Helms would control the next several minutes of the match, keeping Punk grounded on the mat. Helms whipped Punk to the corner but missed with a clothesline when Punk ducked, only to catch him with a superkick when he turned back around. Helms went for the cover, hooking the leg for the 1.........2..........., but Punk got a shoulder off the mat! Helms got him up and tried to turn him over into the "Nightmare on Helms Street" but Punk countered and pushed him into the corner. He then flew in with a knee that caught Helms flush on the jaw before delivering a jumping bulldog. Punk ran the ropes but Talia stuck her hand in and grabbed his left foot, just about tripping him up. Punk turned towards her and Helms got up, attacking him from behind. He then ran in but Punk was able to turn and get Helms up on his shoulders. The fans knew what was coming and despite Helms doing everything in his power to get free, Punk delivered the "GTS" with perfection and covered Helms for the win. Match Time: 10:20 Cole: "And Punk got him! Oh what a match"! HTM: "He had to pull that one out of the fire, Michael, Helms had him beat"! "THIS FIRE BURNS" PLAYED AGAIN AND PUNK STOOD IN THE RING, CELEBRATING THE WIN WITH THE FANS. OUTSIDE THE RING, HELMS WALKED OFF WITH TALIA, STILL FEELING THE EFFECTS OF THE MATCH. Cole: "Punk has advanced in this single elimination tournament with a hard fought win, what a way to start the night"! A PROMO GRAPHIC CONTAINING THE PRIMETIME LOGO POPS UP WITH JOHN CENA ON ONE SIDE AND UMAGA ON THE OTHER. HTM: "And we have a lot more action still to come, including John Cena taking on the Samoan Bulldozer"! ANOTHER PROMO GRAPHIC IS DISPLAYED. ON ONE SIDE IS SCOTT STEINER AND CHERRY STANDING OPPOSITE DAMION WEST. Cole: "That match will take place later but coming up next, it will be the very first WrestleMania Jackpot qualification match between Big Poppa Pump and Damion West........... don't go away"! COMMERCIAL BREAK........... RETURN FROM BREAK..... BACKSTAGE...... WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS FROM BREAK, LENA YADA IS IN THE BACK WITH THE NEW LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION KENNY DOANE AND SUPER CRAZY. Lena Yada: "I am here with the man who defeated Evan Bourne at the Royal Rumble to become the new TWF Lightheavyweight champion, Kenny Doane, but it didn't come without a little help from Super Crazy here. Can you explain what's going on between the two of you"? Kenny Doane: "Lena, what you are looking at is the beginning of the next craze here in the world of professional wrestling. Super Crazy has become the very first member of my Doane-ation and trust me..... there will be many more"! SUPER CRAZY PULLS THE MICROPHONE TOWARDS HIM AND SHOUTS SOMETHING IN SPANISH. Doane: "Yeah..... what he said". THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING WHERE A LOUD SIREN IS HEARD FOLLOWED BY "HOLLER IF YA HEAR ME". SCOTT STEINER AND CHERRY STEP OUT TO PLENTY OF BOOS. Cole: "The Doane-ation? Whatever". HTM: "Come on, Michael, give it a chance. I think Kenny Doane is one of the brightest stars we have here in all of the TWF"! Cole: "Gimme a break, he didn't even understand what he said"! HTM: "Well let's talk about the WrestleMania Jackpot... can you believe we're about to see a qualification match already"?! AN ENGINE LOUDLY REVS AND GOES INTO "STRONGER" BY KANYE WEST BEFORE DAMION WEST STEPS OUT FROM THE BACK TO A BIG CHEER. Cole: "WrestleMania 10 is just around the corner partner and one of these men will be the first man to qualify for the all important WrestleMania Jackpot match"! WrestleMania Jackpot Qualification Match Scott Steiner w/ Cherry vs. "High Octane" Damion West Steiner moved in on West as the bell sounded to start the match, almost like he would approach an opponent in amatuer wrestling. West's plan all along was to use his feet to keep Steiner back and his speed to avoid his power. West struck Steiner with a kick to the upper right arm when he moved in and then grabbed him, looking for an irish whip. Steiner was able to reverse it but West came off the ring ropes with a flying back elbow, only to be struck in the back of the head by a forearm from Big Poppa Pump. Steiner then locked him in a full nelson but West was able to use his feet to push off the top turnbuckle pad, landing on Steiner and getting a 1.......2......., and Steiner had to release the hold to prevent being pinned. Steiner got up and threw a clothesline but after ducking it, West caught him with 2 sharp kicks to the back of each leg before again springing off the ring ropes into with a crossbody. After a basement dropkick, West ran the ropes but Cherry got involved, grabbing his right foot. Steiner then came from behind with a clothesline to the back of the head that took West over the top rope and to the floor. As Steiner got the attention of referee Charles Robinson, Cherry threw a kick at West when he got up. But Octane caught her foot and Steiner came outside the ring, only to have her flung at him. Steiner moved Cherry out of the way, but was blasted by the superkick of West. Steiner fell flat to the arena floor and probably could've won the match by count out. But he took a lot of time in following up before going to the top rope. Steiner got up and West jumped off, only to be caught in the arms of the musclebound Steiner. Steiner then rammed him 3 times into the steel ring post before rolling him back into the ring. Steiner shouted some obscenities into the crowd before coming back in and going for an elbow drop. But West rolled out of the way and slowly got to his feet. After 2 more hard kicks, he tried to grab Steiner but grabbed his back in a lot of pain. After smashing West across the back with a double axe handle that knocked him to the mat, Steiner got on West with the "Steiner Recliner" and he had High Octane in a lot of trouble. West was in an inescapable position and was forced to tap out. Match Time: 5:09 Cole: "Now that is a huge win for Scott Steiner. I can only think that High Octane's back is in really bad shape because he always has that never say die attitude". HTM: "Well if he would'e been smart, he could've won this match by count out but he had to go for more..... probably to please this crowd"! STEINER's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE AND CHERRY LEFT WITH THE VICTORY AS WEST TRIED TO WORK OUT THE PAIN IN HIS BACK IN THE RING. Cole: "Well as a result, Scott Steiner is the first man to qualify for this year's WrestleMania Jackpot"! BACKSTAGE...... DRESSING ROOM...... CARNEY AND TURRICAN ARE SHOWN GETTING READY FOR THEIR MATCH. CARNEY IS LACING HIS BOOTS AND TURRICAN APPEARS TO BE PLAYING A NINTENDO DS. Carney: "Come on, man, can you put that thing down? I know our match with the U.N. is non-title tonight, but if we could beat those guys, do you know what that could get us? TURRICAN TURNS TO HIM AND JUST NODS. Look man, I don't know much about you, you never talk and you never let me see you with that mask off, but if we could become a little better friends, I truly believe we could be one of the best tag teams this company has ever seen". TURRICAN AGAIN JUST NODS AS THE VIDEO GAME HE IS PLAYING BEGINS TO PLAY A TUNE, WHICH HE STARTS TO DANCE TO. CARNEY JUST SHAKES HIS HEAD. THE SHOT THEN GOES TO AN UNKNOWN LOCATION WHERE SAMAIEL IS. Samaiel is found in a warehouse, cluttered metal, broken glass, nuts and bolts are all over the floor. He is working hard, welding mask on, sparks flying.
**The camera approaches.**
Samaiel: "I already know you're there, you can stop trying to be sneaky. I heard you when you came through the front gate."
Samaiel looks over his shoulder and lifts up the face-shield.
Samaiel: "I've also got cameras all over this place. Call it paranoia.. I call it.. being prepared."
Some tools fall off the table onto the floor. Samaiel takes off the welding mask and throws it to the other side of the room.
Samaiel: "Speaking of which, I'm sure you came here to ask me all sorts of questions. All of which, I believe, I am quite prepared for. But, before I give up any information.. Do you like it? I worked on it all night.. as a preparation for the weeks to come."
Samaiel holds up a disfigured mask with sharpened teeth. It's made of some sort of metal. It has spikes that run down the length of its face.
Samaiel: "I can't be the only unfashionable wrestler in this joint! Look at all the years of sacrifice these men have put on their bodies! Match after match.. barbed wire, razors.. C-4.. Table matches, ladder matches.. Explosions.."
Samaiel puts the mask to his face to check the dimensions. He sits it down on the table.
Samaiel: "Just a little more work.. and it should be perfect. Okay, so it isn't the best idea to help with how things are now. But I have to make do.. Dockland only has so big of a paycheck you see.. and well, Edge just doesn't need my help anymore.. so that leaves my budget a little dry. That brings me to why I did what I did.. Why I attacked Nails."
Samaiel picks up a shard of glass.
Samaiel: "When I was in the heat of it, man.. It was.. bliss. The blood, the carnage.. the adrenaline. It's got to be what these guys feel when they take it to each other. When they're out their knockin' heads.. busting faces.. I mean, it was a little different. I was popping skulls, snapping spines... slitting throats.. All for my country. Well.. maybe a little of that was for release.. That pent up agression we all have".
Samaiel throws the shard and it sticks into the wooden side of the table.
Samaiel: "I miss it. I crave it. I need it... to survive! I've gone over the footage.. I've seen the bare bones and blood Nails has brought to the TWF.. I can recognize.. talent.. when I see it. He's a predator.. like me. Sure, we like a big kill.. but can take an opportunity and exploit it for our own. Make it suit our needs. Nails is a tough S-O-B.. maybe the toughest.. and I want to test myself.. I want to hone my skills.. Like a razor against the stone.. I want to be the sharpest."
Samaiel places the mask on his face.
Samaiel: "Oh.. I'm gonna be so sharp.. I'm going to split hairs.."
He tosses the mask back down.
"Besides that.. I'm after what everyone here is after. Recognition. A little respect.. I'm looked at in the locker room with disdain. I'm a mercenary. I'm a hired gun. A hitman. You don't get much respect for that. Nails is one of the 'upper-crust' of hardcore... I see that spot.. and want it! I'm getting a substantial benefit.. Not only could I be making my name all that much more in TWF.. I'm going to fill my wallet. It's no easy task.. and it's one that's going to cost some serious cash".
Samaiel reaches for the welding torch.
"Now get out of here.. or you'll be a permanent fixture." ***RESULTS WILL BE SEMI-CONDENSED FROM THIS POINT*** Cole: "What the hell is Samaiel up to? Did you see that mask"? HTM: "I believe Nails has truly met his match this time, Cole and I can't wait to see them go at it"! Evan Bourne vs. Super Crazy w/ Kenny Doane This was a very fast paced match that saw plenty of aerial action. Bourne came out very focused, looking to show the championship committee that he deserves a rematch for the Lightheavyweight title. But it was Super Crazy's plan to make sure that didn't happen and he was very aggressive in taking it to Bourne. Crazy was able to take the air out of Bourne with a spinebuster that got him a near fall. He then went to the top rope and connected with a missile dropkick but instead of going for the cover, he went to the top rope on the other side and flew off with a moonsault that missed everything. Bourne got up and caught him with a Pele kick before he went to the top rope for his shooting star press. But Doane got up on the apron to distract him and Super Crazy grabbed him, pulling him to the mat. Crazy again went to the top rope, perched up there but Bourne quickly got to his feet and jumped from the mat to pull Super Crazy down with a frankensteiner. An excellent move and it got Bourne the win. Bourne then hurried out of the ring to escape the post match sneak attack from Doane. Match Time: 5:15 COMMERCIAL BREAK......... RETURN FROM BREAK..... BACKSTAGE..... WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, LENA YADA IS IN THE BACK WITH THE UNIVERSAL CHAMPION EDGE, WHO IS SPORTING A RED "RATED R SUPERSTAR" T-SHIRT AND GREY SKULLCAP. HE HAS THE BELT SLUNG OVER HIS RIGHT SHOULDER. Lena Yada: "Edge, can you explain to us what this champion's address that you have planned tonight is all about"? Edge: "No..... no actually I can't. All I will say is this. These people here in Lexington will soon be reminded of what it takes to be a champion and not only a champion..... but one this damn good"! EDGE WALKS AWAY AS THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE RING. Non-Title Match Carney and Turrican vs. TWF Tag Team Champs: Paul Burchill and Harry Smith w/ Katie Lea Carney and Turrican started this match out very fast, catching the champs off guard and knocking them both out of the ring with dropkicks in stereo. Turrican then waited for Smith to get into the ring and took him down with a headscissor when he did. Turrican then whipped Smith into the ropes and delivered a flying heel kick. He went for a cover, but Burchill came in to pull him off. Carney tagged into the match and went to the top rope but he missed with a dropkick off the top rope when Smith moved out of the way. The U.N. would control the next 3 minutes of the match, making frequent tags and taking turns hammering Carney. Smith felt he had him worn down and he loaded him up for the Bulldog Powerslam but Carney slipped free and was able to deliver a reverse DDT to turn the tide of the match. Both men were down and they both began to make their way to their respective corners. But when Carney got there, he noticed Turrican outside the ring talking and having a good time with some of the ringside fans. Carney yelled for him to get back, but Smith slapped the hand of Burchill who came in and delivered a flying axe handle to the back of Carney's head before rolling him up for the 3 count. Match Time: 5:03 Katie Lea grabbed the Tag Team titles and left with Smith and Burchill as Carney was very upset with his partner. BACKSTAGE...... JOHN CENA's DRESSING ROOM....... Many of the fans inside the arena cheer when John Cena is shown in his dressing room getting ready for his later match with Umaga. "EX's AND OH's" BY ATREYU STARTS UP AND PJ CASH COMES TO THE RING, CARRYING A CLIPBOARD. Cole: "John Cena is set to take on Umaga later tonight but here we have PJ Cash coming to the ring and as far as my notes go, this isn't scheduled, partner". HTM: "I don't have it anywhere on mine either, but I'm still interested in what he's got to say". CASH STEPS INTO THE RING AND IS HANDED A MICROPHONE. PJ Cash: "Shane McMahon..... I know I'm not scheduled to have the ring right now but before you send security or any or the guys in the back, I think you might want to take a listen to what I have to say here. Now, I could've come to your office and done this privately, but you chose to disrespect me, so now I'm gonna disrespect you". Cole: "What is he talking about"? Cash: "In my hand, I have my current TWF PrimeTime contract. In it, it states several things like my salary, the dates I'm supposed to work and, oh here's a funny one...... the fact that I must be given a chance to compete at every single TWF pay-per-view event! That's right, many superstars wouldn't be smart enough to include something like this but those superstars aren't the PrimeTime Prodigy, either, now are they? Before, I never really had a blatant reason to argue this special clause, and then came this year's Royal Rumble. I wasn't even given a qualification match! Just completely disregarded..... like I wasn't even a part of this company! So my question to you, Shane McMahon, is simple. Do you want to get out here and compensate me for this or do you want me to sue this company for breach of contract? Your choice! The way I look at it, you robbed me of a chance to be Universal or World champion because there is no doubt I would've won the Royal Rumble"! Cole: "Is this guy serious? He's actually calling out Shane McMahon and threatening to sue". HTM: "He sounds serious as a heart attack to me". JUST THEN, TWF AGENT ARN ANDERSON BEGINS TO MAKE HIS WAY TO THE RING, MAKING A "HOLD ON" GESTURE WITH HIS HANDS. HE GRABS ANOTHER MICROPHONE BEFORE WALKING UP THE STAIRS INTO THE RING. Cole: "Well here comes Arn Anderson and it appears he's gonna try to defuse this situation". HTM: "And this is just like Shane McMahon to send someone out here to take care of his problems, rather than face them himself". Arn Anderson: "PJ, listen, this isn't the way you want to go about this, son". Cash: "Oh really"? Anderson: "Shane isn't going to come out here. He was aware of your situation, but he didn't figure you were gonna act like...... well a little kid about it. Trust me, Shane thinks highly of you and realizes you have a very bright future in this sport, but what you need to realize is that earning it by physically doing it is what gets you to the dance..... not whining and complaining or opening your checkbook. Don't you see it, kid..... you could be up there with the best..... but you've gotta change your attitude in order to get there". Cash: "Ya know, Double A, if I may call you that.... you make a good point. And coming from a guy like you, I think it's pretty good advice". CASH EXTENDS HIS HAND AND ANDERSON SHAKES IT. THE ENFORCER THEN GIVES HIS MIC BACK TO RING ANNOUNCER HOWARD FINKEL WHEN HE IS STRUCK IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD BY THE CLIPBOARD! CASH THEN PUTS THE BOOTS TO ANDERSON BEFORE HITTING HIM WITH THE CLIPBOARD AGAIN WHILE HE IS ON HIS HANDS AND KNEES. THIS TIME, THE CLIPBOARD BREAKS. Cole: "My God..... what the hell is wrong with this guy"?! HTM: "What do you think, Michael, did you not just listen to what he just said"?! Cole: "Well I would really like to see someone put this guy in his place! He just attacked Arn Anderson, who hasn't been an active competitor for years, from behind"! "EX's AND OH's" PLAYED AGAIN AND THE CROWD LOUDLY BOOED AS CASH WALKED UP THE RAMP, LOOKING BACK WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE. BACKSTAGE..... SHANE McMAHON's OFFICE....... SHANE McMAHON IS IN HIS OFFICE WATCHING ON A MONITOR WHEN TWF AGENT TOM BRANDI ENTERS AND HANDS HIM A VIDEO TAPE. Tom Brandi: "We just received this from the Amway Arena. It's the surveillance tape we've been trying so hard to get. It does show who attacked The Undertaker". SHANE POPS THE TAPE INTO A VCR AND BEGINS TO PLAY IT. HE LOOKS VERY SURPRISED BY WHAT HE SEES, BUT THE CAMERA DOESN'T SHOW WHAT THAT IS BEFORE THE SHOT FADES OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK.............. RETURN FROM BREAK...... BACKSTAGE..... WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW TITO ORTIZ TALKING ON A CELL PHONE WHEN GINA CARANO COMES UP. Gina Carano: "Hey, think we can work on a few things before my match? TITO PUTS HIS HAND UP IN HER FACE. Gina Carano: "Oh, sorry, I didn't realize you were on the phone....... CARANO WALKS OFF SHAKING HER HEAD. Tito Ortiz (talking on the phone): "Are you sure you want to do that? (brief pause) Okay, but you're on your way, right, you'll be here soon? (pause) Okay, see ya in a few". Mark Henry and Blade vs. Matt Hardy and Finlay This match pitted two men who have advanced in the number one contender for the Intercontinental title against the men they defeated to get there and this match played out much like those did. Finlay roughhoused the rookie Blade in the early going and got a near fall after a fireman's carry slam. Matt Hardy then came in and hit Blade with a flying clothesline off the top rope and a big legdrop. Henry tried to come in but Hardy tagged him with a couple right hands. He then tried to grab Blade for the "Twist of Fate" but Blade pushed him to his corner, right into Finlay which knocked him to the floor. Blade then tagged in Henry who came in and smashed Hardy with both arms to the head. He then went for a big splash and hit nothing but the mat when Hardy rolled away. Matt got up and landed two more right hands before running into the ropes but when he jumped at Henry, he was caught in the air and driven into the mat with the "World's Strongest Slam". Henry covered Hardy for the win. Match Time: 6:10 MICHAEL COLE THEN INTROS A HIGHLIGHT PACKAGE OF THE ROYAL RUMBLE WHICH HAS THE SOUNDS OF "WORLD TO BURN" BY REV THEORY. Gina Carano vs. Ariel Ariel looked as if she didn't want to tangle with Carano as this one got started and it didn't take long before Kevin Thorn made his presence. It seemed like a setup all along as Thorn came into the ring and grabbed Carano. Ariel then moved in and slapped her several times before grabbing her by the hair and driving her face first into the mat. Thorn and Ariel looked like they wanted to set up some sort of sacrifice of Gina Carano when out came Chaos Wolf, the man who eliminated Kevin Thorn from the Royal Rumble, to her aid! Wolf grabbed Thorn's walking stick and struck him in the face with it, knocking him out of the ring. Ariel then scurried away as well before "Remember the Name" by Fort Minor came on and Wolf helped Ms. Carano to her feet. COMMERCIAL BREAK.............. RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE...... John Cena vs. Umaga This was just a war between Cena and Umaga and both men tried to land the knockout blow on several occassions. Umaga was able to take control of the match after several hard headbutts and then a big Samoan drop. Umaga then went to the corner and flew off with a diving headbutt but Cena was able to get out of the way. Cena then rocked the big man with a plethora of right hands and a kick to the stomach which led to the Throwback. Cena then went to the top rope and flew off with a legdrop to the back of Umaga's head and neck, right as he got up. Cena made the cover but Umaga pushed him off at the count of 2. Cena tried to stay on the offensive, whipping Umaga to the corner but he ran into a back elbow and Umaga caught him with a vicious superkick before covering him for the 1..........2........., but Cena was up. Umaga pulled him up and went for the "Samoan Spike" but Cena blocked it and tried to get him up on his shoulders. Umaga was able to rake his eyes to get free and he hit the ropes. But Cena used a drop toehold to get him on the mat before locking in the STF-U in the center of the ring. Umaga fought and clawed, trying to get to the ropes to break the hold, but Cena's power was too much and he pulled on it with everything he had. Finally, the Samoan Bulldozer had to tap out. Match Time: 10:27 BACKSTAGE....... IN THE BACK, LENA YADA TRIES TO GET A WORD WITH PJ CASH, RUNNING AFTER HIM. BUT HE TOTALLY IGNORES HER AND EXITS THE BUILDING. BACK TO THE RING, "MISERIA CANTARE" COMES ON AND CURIOUSLY, JOE COREY COMES OUT ALONG WITH TITO ORTIZ. Cole: "Well folks, still to come tonight, we have Edge's champion's address but for whatever reason, Joe Corey is coming out here with Tito Ortiz"! HTM: "Well you really have to wonder what this is about because much like what happened with PJ Cash earlier, this was not scheduled". COREY AND ORTIZ GET INTO THE RING AND COREY GETS A MICROPHONE. Joe Corey: "Ya know, since I have been removed from the card for WrestleMania, I didn't even plan on being here tonight. You people don't deserve to see me! THE CROWD BOOS But I got a call from my boy, Tito, and I just want to get straight down to business here because I don't want to try and play cover up or any of that. Shane McMahon was handed surviellance video from Amway Arena tonight. Many of you will remember the last edition of TWF's Main Event, back in November. Do you all remember how that show ended? No? Maybe this will refresh your memory". FOOTAGE FROM TWF's MAIN EVENT BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 2008 SHOWS THE CLOSE OF THE SHOW WHERE THE UNDERTAKER IS SHOWN LAYING IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA, IN A POOL OF BLOOD. Joe Corey: "Remember? That's right..... it was us! Tito was the man physically responsible..... I was the man behind it! Ya see, I've been really good friends with this man for a long time and he owed me a favor for getting him a TWF contract so I found the perfect time for him to repay me! Undertaker, I am standing here in the middle of this ring saying I did this to you! I'm not hiding..... I'm not scared of you"! Cole: "Then why the hell did you wait for the tape to come out before saying anything"?! Corey: "So here is what I have in mind, deadman. Yo show up on the next PrimeTime, you come out of hiding and you meet me...... so I can finish the job"! COREY THROWS THE MICROPHONE DOWN BEFORE LEAVING THE RING TO THE SOUNDS OF "MISERIA CANTARE" AND OVER 10,000 PEOPLE LOUDLY BOOING. Cole: "A shocking revelation here by Joe Corey and an even more shocking challenge made to the phenom". HTM: "Well he's being held out of WrestleMania so I'm guessing he wants to make a WrestleMania moment for himself"! Cole: "We'll be right back with Edge's champion's address". COMMERCIAL BREAK............. RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE..... "METALINGUS" BY ALTER BRIDGE IS PLAYING WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS AND EDGE IS IN THE RING STANDING BEHIND A PODIUM. GOLD STREAMERS AND CONFETTI FALL FROM THE CEILING. Cole: "Well we're back here on PrimeTime and we're ready for this.... this...... HTM: "It's a champion's address, Michael, why do you have such a problem with that?! Look at our Rated R Superstar..... this is great"! Edge: "Once again, against all odds, I stand before all of you ungrateful people as your Universal champion! EDGE HOLDS THE BELT UP IN HIS RIGHT HAND AND IS LARGELY BOOED. But tonight, as I look up to the rafters and see all those championship banners, it makes this all the more better. Tonight, I have asked a very special guest to come out here and remind all of you people and educate all of you people on exactly what it takes to be a champion and since you people don't want to respect my opinion..... maybe you'll respect his! He's someone you'll remember well...... somebody you all used to love..... until he bolted for a place that would give him a much better oppurtunity to be the best! I'm talking about none other than former KU head basketball coach..... Rick Pitino"! Cole: "What the hell"?! RICK PITINO STEPS OUT FROM THE BACK AND HEADS TO THE RING. HE IS BOOED LOUDER THAN ANYONE HAD BEEN ALL NIGHT. HTM: "Can you believe this?! Do you realize what this man did for this state"?! Cole: "What I can't believe is that Rick Pitino is on an episode of TWF PrimeTime". PITINO GETS INTO THE RING AND SHAKES EDGE's HAND. Edge: "I want you all to show this man the respect he deserves"! PITINO STEPS UP TO THE PODIUM AND TRIES TO SPEAK, BUT IS DROWNED OUT BY THE BOOS. Rick Pitino: "Ya know, I expected, coming to Rupp tonight, that you guys would react this way. But this isn't about me.... this is about Edge who is the greatest....... international champion of all time". Cole: "What? He doesn't even know what the title is called"! Edge: "It's Universal you idiot"! Pitino: "Oh, my apologies. This night is not about me, guys, it's not about Kentucky basketball. This night is about, Edger, the greatest...... HTM: "Edger! What the hellllll....... SUDDENLY, "SAVE ME" BY BURN HALO COMES ON AND JORDAN ROCKWELL COMES OUT TO A MONSTER POP WITH THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. Cole: "Oh boy..... this is about to get real good"! Jordan Rockwell: "Wow.... somebody please stop the pain. Edge, you really brought this guy on tonight? ROCKWELL GETS INTO THE RING. I mean, he doesn't know your name..... he doesn't know what that great title is called.... what the hell is this all about? Rick, seriously, you should've read the notes better before coming out. And another thing that really bothers me....... you say this guy left the Kentucky basketball program for greener pastures? Let's not forget how much he SUCKED as coach of the Boston Celtics! No offense, Rick, of course". Edge: "Rockwell.... you have no business out here! You are not going to come out here and ruin this! So why don't you go into the back and try and give pep talks to guys like Ricky Ortiz and the Highlanders, and try to tell them they're not as bad as everyone thinks they are.... like you're so known for"! Rockwell: "Ya know, from what I could hear, these people were being bored to death by you and this idiot before I got out here". ROCKWELL TURNS HIS BACK SLIGHTLY AND EDGE HITS HIM FROM BEHIND. HE THEN RUNS AT ROCKWELL BUT ROCKWELL BACKDROPS HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE AND TO THE FLOOR, SENDING THE CROWD INTO ANOTHER CHEER. Cole: "Oh my............ HTM: "Jordan Rockwell is ruining this! What an idiot"! "SAVE ME" STARTED TO PLAY AGAIN AND ROCKWELL WAS DARING EDGE TO GET BACK INTO THE RING. Cole: "The champion's address didn't go quite as Edge planned! Instead, it's a different champion standing tall tonight"! OFF AIR..................
