Dark Matches Evolution looked like a well oiled machine as they beat the new powerhouse team of Vlad the Impaler and Hardcore Holly in 6:08 when Frankie Kazarian dropped Holly with a full nelson sit down driver to get the pin. Ron Waterman of SMW pulled off a big upset win when he pinned Christian in 8:19 after a grapevine rollup when he countered the "Unprettier".
PT GOES LIVE CYPRESS HILL's THEME SONG FOR PRIMETIME PLAYS AND THE MONTAGE VIDEO FEATURING ALL OF THE STARS OF PRIMETIME PLAYS. THE SOLD OUT ARENA COMES INTO VIEW AS THE TRADITIONAL FIREWORKS DISPLAY KICKS THINGS OFF. Michael Cole:"Welcome to live TWF action from Cambridge, Massachusetts on the FOX network! PrimeTime is gonna be an explosive show tonight Brain, take a look at this match"! A MATCHUP PICTURE WITH THE PRIMETIME LOGO IN THE BACK IS SHOWN OF VAL VENIS AND EDGE. Bobby Heenan:"Oh yeah, Edge and Val Venis are gonna go one on one and Venis is ready to get back in the title hunt with a win here tonight"! A MATCHUP PICTURE IS SHOWN OF D'LO BROWN AND THE BRAND NEW INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION DREW BLOOD. Cole:"And look at this one folks, Drew Blood was victorious over Rhyno at Foul Play and although he won't have to defend the title tonight, he'll still get tough competition from D'Lo Brown". Heenan:"Oh it's just like the matches we've seen around here lately. Rather than reward the man with the night off, he gets a non title match with a guy who will be very hungry in D'Lo Brown. It's a match Drew Blood can getting nothing out of". Cole:"Well he's added a lot of wins to his record of late and I'm sure he wouldn't mind another". VAL VENIS' THEME HITS AND HE IS GREETED BY AN UNFRIENDLY RESPONSE FROM THE CROWD. Heenan:"Listen to these humanoids. Don't they know greatness when they see it? Val Venis is one of the top superstars in the TWF"! "NEVER GONNA STOP" BY ROB ZOMBIE HITS AS SMOKE FILLS THE ENTRANCE AND EDGE JUMPS OUT WEARING HIS LONG SHINY BLACK TRENCH COAT AND THE CROWD GOES WILD. Cole:"He is a great superstar Brain but these fans do not respect him. I mean, Val Venis has been goin' around bragging about ending the career of Shawn Michaels. But listen to the ovation for Edge and what a chance Edge has tonight. He'd move right up the ladder if he could beat the former TWF champion Val Venis tonight"! Heenan:"Dream on Michael, Val is on the top of his game right now. I don't know if anyone on the PrimeTime roster is in better shape right now". Val Venis vs. Edge What a way to start the show! These two livened up the crowd in a hurry as Edge had Venis on the ropes early. After catching Val with an inverted atomic drop and a hard clothesline, Edge went for the cover and got a long 2 count. He then dropped Venis with a side jumping facebuster to get another 2 count. Edge then came bouncing off the ropes with a flying body tackle attempt but Val used a lowbridge of the top ropes and Edge went flying to the floor. Edge was slow to his feet but when he got back on the apron, he shouldered Val in the stomach and sunset flipped his way back in. But Val held his balance and sat down on Edge. He then grabbed the middle rope for added leverage but referee Mike Chioda kicked his arms off. As Val argued with Chioda, Edge came from behind with a schoolboy and got the 1....2..., but Val powered out. He then poked Edge in the eye and ran him to the ropes with a knee to the gut. Val then proceeded to take the pad off one of the middle turnbuckle pads, exposing a steel ring and bolt. Chioda came over and tried to stop Val but Val pushed him aside. Chioda threatened to DQ Venis when Edge came out of nowhere with a spinning wheel kick to the head. He then went for an elbow drop but Val moved and dropped a knee across his chest to get a 1 and a half. Val then scored with a fisherman suplex and got a 2 count before dropping Edge with a back suplex into a powerbomb but again Edge kicked out. Frustrated, Val whipped Edge to the ropes but Edge reversed it and caught him with a nice flapjack. Edge then measured Val for the spear and went for it but Venis moved out of the way and Edge went head first into the previously exposed turnbuckle. Venis then capitalized by going to the top rope and connecting with the "Money Shot" for the 1...2...3. Match Time: 12:29 Heenan:"Oh what a match! What a match! And Michael, Val has proved his superiority again"! Cole:"Wait a minute, it's Chris Benoit"! SUDDENLY, CHRIS BENOIT CAME OUT AND STUNG THE CHEST OF VENIS WITH SEVERAL KNIFEDGE CHOPS. HE THEN WENT TO LOCK IN THE CROSSFACE BUT VAL NARROWLY ESCAPED AND SLID OUT OF THE RING. AS VAL WALKED UP THE RAMP BACKWARDS, BENOIT GAVE HIM A COLD STARE THE WHOLE WAY. Heenan:"What the hell is Chris Benoit doing? He has no business out here"! Cole:"This all stems from an arrogant Venis blaming a tag team loss they had on Benoit and this situation is really heating up Brain". Heenan:"The loss probably was his fault! Benoit hasn't heard the end of this"! THE SOUND OF GLASS BREAKING RINGS THROUGHOUT THE ARENA AS "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN COMES OUT AND THE CROWD COMES TO THEIR FEET. Cole:"Listen to the ovation for the rattlesnake! The roof's gonna blow off Brain"! Heenan:"What's he doing out here? I was having a great night until a few minutes ago and now he's out here"! Stone Cold:"I'm out here tonight because I'm just a little bit pissed off! I should be going to Evil Intentions to whip the Undertaker's ass but uh-uh! Thanks to that little witch Stephanie McMahon, I'm not! Now I know she wanted to screw her ex-husband Triple H but it didn't work that way and she ruined a sure win for me! Now they said if I show up on RAW and whip somebody's ass, I'm suspended. So I'm just gonna sit out here until I get granted a rematch with Triple H and if that means I sit out here for the whole show, then that's what I'll do! Now somebody pass me a chair"! AS THE TIMEKEEPER WENT TO GIVE AUSTIN A CHAIR, MATT HARDY's THEME BY OUR LADY OF PEACE HIT AND HE AND STACY KIEBLER APPEARED AT THE TOP OF THE RAMP. Matt Hardy:"Ya know Austin, if there's one thing I hate, it's a damn whiner! You lost so just accept it"! Cole:"What is Matt Hardy doing"? Stone Cold:(smiling) "You don't like me whining huh? You gonna do anything about it"? Matt Hardy:"Oh yeah, I'll do something about it". Stone Cold:"How bout doing something about it tonight, in this ring"! THE CROWD GETS LOUDER WHEN THEY HEAR THE CHALLENGE. Matt Hardy:"Alright Austin, you and me tonight. But.... Stone Cold:"But nothing. You just accepted the challenge and you gave me permission to whip your little carcas all over Cambridge tonight! But one other thing. If you're so tough Matt Hardy, why don't you leave your little girlfriend in the back". Matt Hardy:"Ok, that's fine". Stone Cold:"Now that doesn't mean you bring your other girlfriend out instead". Heenan:"What?! Matt is furious"! Matt Hardy:"That's enough Austin! It's time for Matt Hardy to rise to the level that all these people know I can get to and it starts with you tonight"! AUSTIN AND MATT STARE AT EACH OTHER ACROSS THE ARENA. Cole:"Matt Hardy and Stone Cold tonight! Don't go away"! COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK... Cole:"Well folks we're back on PrimeTime and take a look at what just transpired during the commercial break between Jordan Rockwell and the Body Donnas". FOOTAGE FROM DURING BREAK.... LITA IS WALKING DOWN THE HALL WHEN TERRI AND THE BODY DONNAS APPROACH HER. Terri:"Oh look, it's all these fans favorite, Lita. I couldn't tell ya why though". Lita:"Look Terri, I'm not in the mood for you tonight so you better get out of my face". Terri:"Or what"? Lita:"Or.... SKIP GETS IN HER FACE. Skip:"Or nothin' Lita! Listen, we want you to go to your boyfriend and tell him what he did tou is with that videotape a few weeks ago hasn't been forgotten and things aren't over between us and the New Breed"! Lita:"Are you done"? Kip:"Listen Lita, drop the attitude. I don't see what all these people see in you. I mean look at Terri and then look at you. You're nothing but an out of shape pig". LITA SLAPS KIP ACROSS THE FACE AND HE THINKS OF RETALIATING BUT UNBEKNOWNST TO THEM, JORDAN ROCKWELL WAS JUST AROUND THE CORNER SIGNING AN AUTOGRAPH FOR A FAN AND HE OVERHEARD EVERYTHING. ROCKWELL CAME AROUND THE CORNER AND ATTACKED BOTH KIP AND SKIP, LEAVING THEM LAYING IN THE HALLWAY. Jordan Rockwell:"I'm sick and tired of you little punks! Who's out of shape now"?! Cole:"Obviously Jordan Rockwell snapped and because of what you just saw, Rockwell has agreed to a non title match with Body Donna Kip tonight Brain". THE EXTREME JAPAN 2000 THEME HITS AS YUJI MATASAMO AND HAYABUSA COME OUT WITH A JAPANESE AND AMERICAN FLAG. Heenan:"Well Rockwell better be ready because after what he just did, I think he's lucky the title's not on the line"! Cole:"Wait a minute Brain, what are Yuji Matasamo and Hayabusa coming out here for? This isn't on my schedule". Heenan:"Nor is it on mine but they have flags with them". THE 2 MEN ENTER THE RING AND MATASAMO PULLS OUT A LONH LIGHTER AS THE CROWD STARTS TO BOO. Cole:"No, tell me they're not going to do this"! AS HAYABUSA WAVES THE JAPANESE FLAG, MATASAMO GETS SET TO LIGHT THE AMERICAN FLAG WHEN "IT's MY LIFE" BY BON JOVI HITS AND DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP. Dylan Jansens:"Put the flame away or mark my words, lighting that flag will be the last thing you do in the TWF". Cole:"Thank god for Jansens". Jansens:"Like I've said before, this country has been good to me and I won't sit back and watch you two try and degrade it anymore. Now if you two are so bored that you have to come out and do something like this, I've got a little challenge for both of you. First, Hayabusa, I want a no holds barred match tonight with you and Matasamo, your challenge is to stay backstage for it. And being a fair man, I will agree to leave Molly in the back as well. Just you and me Hayabusa, one on one". Cole:"The ball is in Extreme Japan's court! What will their answer be"?! MATASAMO WHISPERS SOMETHING IN HAYABUSA's EAR AND THEN HAYABUSA NODS AS IF TO SAY YES. Jansens:"Ok then, get ready, the match is starting now"! JANSENS DROPS THE MIC AND HEADS TO THE RING AS REFEREE MIKE SPARKS SENDS MATASAMO TO THE BACK. JANSENS SLIDES INTO THE RING AND HAYABUSA GETS ON HIM IMMEDIATELY WITH HARD STOMPS. No Holds Barred Dylan Jansens vs. Hayabusa This match featured several big moments and several high impact moves. Hayabusa battered Jansens early with kicks to the kidneys followed by a backhand chop to the throat. But Hayabusa waisted a lot of time taunting the crowd instead of following up on moves and Jansens got back into it. After ducking a spinning heel kick, Jansens dropped him with a cradle suplex. He then went to work on the left leg and knee area of Hayabusa, trying to take away some of his quickness. Jansens really slowed down the pace as he used a spinning leg lock as Hayabusa pounded the mat in pain. Jansens then picked Hayabusa up and whipped him to the ropes but when he put his head down too early, Hayabusa kicked him so hard in the chest that it snapped his head back. He then dropped him with a roundhouse to the chin. Hayabusa then went outside the ring and grabbed a kendo stick which he brought in and punished Jansens with, striking him several times in the ribs. With Jansens on his knees, Hayabusa went for the knockout blow to the head but as he raised the stick above his head, Jansens used a back footsweep. He then sprung to his feet and when Hayabusa got up, he dropped him with a german suplex. Jansens then whipped him to the corner but Hayabusa jumped up on the top turnbuckle like a cat and caught Jansens with a back kick to the face. But he aggravated the left knee in the process. Hayabusa hobbled to the corner and grabbed his Japanese flag. When Jansens got up, Hayabusa took a swing with the flag but Jansens ducked and delivered a variation of the Diamond Cutter. He then took the flag and spread it out on a previously stood up table. He then rolled Hayabusa onto the table, covering his own flag. Jansens then ascended the top rope and gave his thumbs down signal as the fans began to rise from their seats. He then came off with a senton bomb, landing on Hayabusa and crashing through the table. Sparks got down and made the 3 count as Jansens got the win. Match Time: 10:25 Cole:"Another great match as Dylan Jansens has hopefully taught Extreme Japan not to mess with America"! Heenan:"I think it's gonna take a lot more than that Cole! Extreme Japan is determined"! Cole:"What a wrestler this Dylan Jansens is becoming though! In just a couple short months he's really fought a fit here in the TWF"! PERRY SATURN AND SPIKE COME OUT TO THEIR THEME SONG AND A GREAT POP. Heenan:"Speaking of coming into their own, what about this team"? Cole:"As goofy as they may act, Perry Saturn and Spike have become a great team together and I think they can compete with anyone. "THE KINGS" BY RUN DMC HITS AS SEAN O'HAIRE AND ALBERT COME OUT TO A LOUD POP. But they've gotta face perhaps the hottest team on PrimeTime and Brain, these two have really jelled together well as a team too and I think the New Breed is as strong as ever as a group because of this tandem". Heenan:"Oh they're a good team, both of them are good teams but my sources have told me that the PrimeTime division is about to include one of the all time great teams". Cole:"What are you talking about? Your sources"? Heenan:"Just watch Cole. My sources are very reliable". Sean O'haire & Albert vs. Perry Saturn & Spike Dudley This one didn't last long as O'haire and Spike started things off. Wanting to avoid a lot of physicality with O'haire, Spike tried to use his quickness to his advantage. But after leapfrogging O'haire on an irish whip, Spike went for a clothesline but O'haire ducked and delivered a hard superkick. He then whipped him to the corner and charged in with a clothesline. After an irish whip, O'haire went down to one knee and gave Spike a shot to the stomach, doubling him up, then knocking him down with a backhand strike. O'haire sent him in again and went for a clothesline but Spike ducked and caught him with a wheel kick as he came off the other side. Dual tags were made on each side as Saturn came in but was met by a big clothesline from Albert. Albert quickly tagged O'haire back in and they hit Saturn with a double back body drop. Spike came in to give his partner a hand but Albert picked him up under the arms and flung him to the corner. O'haire then delivered a devstating spinning death valley driver drop. But when O'haire got up, he turned around and was superkicked by Saturn. But when Saturn turned around, Albert blasted him with an impressive scissors kick to the face. O'haire then crawled over and laid his arm over Saturn to get the win. Match Time: 3:23 Cole:"A key win for Albert and O'haire and they are on quite a winning streak right now". Heenan:"For now they are, the tag team division will soon change". Cole:"Well I'm notgonna speculate on who your sources are or what they know but still to come tonight fans, A MATCHUP PICTURE IS SHOWN. Matt Hardy goes one on one with the Texas rattlesnake". PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL.... BACKSTAGE.... FAITH ARRIVES AT THE ARENA AND STANDING RIGHT NEXT TO THE ENTRANCE DOOR IS SHAWN STASIAK WHO STARTLES HER. Shawn Stasiak:"There you are you pretty little thing. Now Faith, what do I gotta do to get to know you a little better". Faith: (very aggravated) "You wanna get to know me better? How bout you get to know me in the ring, next week on PrimeTime". Cole:"What"? STASIAK CAN ONLY SMILE AS FAITH WALKS AWAY. COMMERCIAL FOR WRESTLEMANIA X-8 FOR NINTENDO GAMECUBE IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE... Idalis:"Hey guys, I'm here with Yuji Matasamo and Hayabusa of Extreme Japan and what a hardcore match that was but guys, Dylan Jansens seems like he'll stand alone against you two in your fight against America. Tell me what is it you guys are setting out to do"? MATASAMO MAKES A SHORT STATEMENT IN JAPANESE WHEN TRIPLE H COMES UP AND GETS IN BOTH THEIR FACES. Triple H:"That's about enought of this crap. Dylan Jansens will not stand alone and Idalis, just for the record I would've had no problem giving Austin a rematch tonight but since he has a match, I want you in the ring tonight Matasamo. If you don't like this country, then get the hell out of it". TRIPLE H WALKS AWAY AS MATASAMO PULLS THE MIC CLOSE TO HIM. Matasamo (in broken english) "Time for Japan to prove it's dominance". "ROLLIN'" BY LIMP BIZKIT HITS AS THE UNDERTAKER's MOTORCYCLE REVS UP AND HE RIDES OUT TO A MIXED CROWD REACTION, THE TWF TITLE WRAPPED AROUND HIS NECK. Cole:"What a message Triple H just sent to Extreme Japan and here is the man who will face him at Evil Intentions". Heenan:"Well Triple H has got enough to worry about with this man. He better be careful before he bites off more than he can chew". Undertaker:"Triple H. Have you forgotten that you and I are gonna get it on at Evil Intentions or are just trying to make it look like your a badass by challenging Matasamo to that match? Really, it doesn't matter because at Evil Intentions, you're gonna meet the same fate Hogan did. No one will take this title from me. Now that leads me to Bahamut. Bahamut, you lived the luckiest day of your life on RAW. I hope you bought a lottery ticket boy because it will never happen again! How confident am I? Well Bahamut, you got a rematch on the next RAW but this time, (holds up the belt) the title is on the line! Now mark my words boy, you may think you're pretty tough since you've held the tag team titles forever, but on RAW, you're gonna meet up with the baddest man in the business and I am gonna make your life a living hell from the opening bell until I leave your bloodied body in the middle of the ring". THE UNDERTAKER TOSSES THE MIC ASIDE AS "ROLLIN" HITS AGAIN. Cole:"A determined Undertaker has just informed us of a match that could change the face of Evil Intentions if Bahamut can do what he already did Brain". Heenan:"There's no way he can beat the deadman twice, no way". THE BODY DONNAS THEME SONG HITS AS TERRI LEADS KIP PRITCHARD DOWN THE AISLE AND HE IS STRONGLY BOOED AS FOOTAGE OF THE CONFRONTATION THAT LED TO THIS MATCH EARLIER TONIGHT IS REPLAYED. Cole:"This all started earlier tonight when Terri and her boys tried to intimidate Lita". "ROCK HARD" BY JA RULE HITS AS JORDAN ROCKWELL COMES OUT WITH THE EUROPEAN TITLE IS HIS LEFT HAND BEHIND LITA AND BOTH GET A HUGE CHEER FROM THE FANS. Heenan:"No Cole, this all started when this man tried to make a fool out of the Body Donnas with their videotape"! Cole:"Well they're the ones who give it away like some kind of prize! They deserved it"! Heenan:"They didn't put that stuff on there! Rockwell edited it somehow"! Cole:"Well somehow I think it was there but in any case, even though the title is not on the line here, what a big match for Kip". Non-Title Match Body Donna Kip vs. European champion Jordan Rockwell Kip jumped on Rockwell before the bell sounded and kicked him in the knee before catching him with a nice hip toss into a reverse chin lock. Rockwell fought his way up and elbowed Kip in the gut but Kip pulled him down by his hair and went back to the chin lock. Digging a knee in Rockwell's back, Kip began pounding at his face with his elbow as he had the champ in a lot of pain. Rockwell then reversed an irish whip but Kip ducked a clothesline and scored with a sleeper hold drop to get a 2 count. After 2 big elbow drops, Kip whipped Rockwell to the ropes but Rockwell caught him in mid air when he went for a leapfrog and turned it into a powerslam. He then clothesline Kip over the top rope and to the floor and followed him out. Rockwell continued the assault with several right hands but when he went for an irish whip, Kip reversed it and sent him hard into the stairs. Kip then lined him up for a clothesline against the post but Rockwell moved and Kip wrapped his own arm hard around the steel. Like a shark smelling blood, Rockwell expolited the arm and worked on it diligently. Rockwell then tried to come off the top rope with a double axe handle but Kip impressively blocked it and hit him with a belly to belly suplex. He whipped Rockwell to the corner but Rockwell reversed it. Kip moved when he tried to follow him in but when Kip went for a clothesline, Rockwell countered with a sit down armbar on the bad arm and immediately took it into an STF as Kip had no choice but to tap out. Match Time: 6:04 Cole:"Rockwell has outlasted Kip and this man is as good as anyone right now Brain". Heenan:"He's been looking real good of late but I think his luck will run out soon". Cole:"I don't call it luck, he took care of Kip in impressive fashion tonight and you gotta wonder if the Body Donnas have had enough of Rockwell". MATT HARDY's THEME MUSIC BY OUR LADY OF PEACE HITS AS HE COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION BUT MOSTLY BOOS. Heenan:"Here we go. I'm gonna call it right now, this is gonna be Matt Hardy's coming out party"! THE SOUND OF GLASS BREAKING IS HEARD ONCE AGAIN AS "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN's THEME HITS AND THE CROWD GOES NUTS AS HE MARCHES DOWN THE RAMP. Cole:"I can't say I agree Brain, look at the look on the rattlesnake's face. He's ready to fight and this one all started earlier tonight when Matt had the nerve to call Austin a whiner". Heenan:"But he's a man of his word Michael and even though I wish she was out here, Stacy's not". Cole:"Matt's gonna have to beat one of the best the old fashioned way tonight". Matt Hardy vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin This one didn't even really get into the ring as Matt tried a backflip off the apron on Austin as he came down the aisle but Austin moved. After a few shots to the head, Austin took off his signature vest and choked Matt with it. He then rolled in the ring allowing the bell to sound but he went right back after Matt. He rammed his head into the steps but when he tried to whip him into the stairs, Matt reversed it. But Austin quickly came back with a clothesline and rolled back into the ring. As Matt got up on the apron, Austin tried to suplex him back in when Stacy came running out from the back. She pulled Austin's leg forward, tripping him up and as Matt landed right on him. She then held his foot down making it very hard for Austin to kick out as Matt got the pin. Match Time: 2:47 Cole:"What the hell was that? She wasn't supposed to be out here"! Heenan:"That was brilliant! Matt did it"! STACY HELPED MATT UP THE RAMP AS AUSTIN LOOKED ON STUNNED. Cole:"Matt Hardy has pulled off a monster sized upset here and this has gotta put the rattlesnake in a nasty frame of mind now". COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK....RINGSIDE... AS PRIMETIME CAME BACK, "MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HIT AS TRAVIS WAKEMAN CAME OUT WITH TRISH STRATUS WHO WAS CARRYING THE TOUGHMAN TITLE. Cole:"We're back on PrimeTime fans as you see Travis Wakeman who is still the Toughman champion after his win over Hardcore Holly at Foul Play". Heenan:"And you gotta admit Cole, it was an impressive win, he beat Holly when he didn't even have to". Cole:"I'll give credit where it's due, it was an impressive win". Travis Wakeman:"So Shane, is the Toughman division an intricate part of your show yet? If it is, you have one man to thank for it and that's me. I've passed all your little tests and I wanna hear it from your own mouth. I am a true toughman competitor and I represent the division well". Cole:"What is this? Wakeman just wants to have someone toot his own horn for him". "HERE COMES THE MONEY" HITS AS SHANE McMAHON COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER. Heenan:"Looks like he's gonna get his wish". Shane McMahon:"Look Wakeman, if that's what you wanna hear than fine, you're a great toughman competitor. I never said you weren't, I just wanted you to realize that on PrimeTime, being the champ meant you'd have to prove it with regular defenses". Wakeman:"Well then what's next, Trish has to stay in another country match"? Shane:"No, it'll be a tough match". Wakeman:"Well I got a better idea. How bout you and me for this title at Evil Intentions? What do ya say, Shane-O-Mac"? Shane:"I must admit, it sounds inticing, especially as most of these people know how tough Shane-O-Mac is. THE CROWD CHEERS IN SUPPORT. But Wakeman, I'll have to pass because the match I'm working on signing will bring the house down at Evil Intentions and I can assure you that it will be your toughest challenge to date". Heenan:"And he's not gonna tell him? How fair is that"? Cole:"Well it's not official yet Brain but I think I have a pretty good idea of who it is". BACKSTAGE HARDCORE HOLLY IS STANDING BACKSTAGE THUMBING THROUGH THE MAY EDITION OF THE TWF MAGAZINE FEATURING SHANE McMAHON ON THE COVER STANDING IN FRONT OF THE PRIMETIME LOGO WHEN A FAMILIAR LOOKING MAN APPROACHES HIM. Man:"Hardcore Holly, there you are, I've been looking all over for you". Hardcore Holly:"Who the hell are you"? Man:"I'm just an informant. But I have come to tell you something". Holly:"And what would that be Mr. informant"? Man:"Well, I over heard Vlad the Impaler saying that you aren't gonna cut it as his partner earlier tonight". Holly:"Oh really? Well we'll have to see about that". HOLLY WALKS OFF AS THE MAN GRINS. BACK AT RINGSIDE, "THE REAL DEAL" HITS AS D'LO BROWN COMES OUT TO A GOOD POP. Cole:"Hardcore Holly won't cut it as Vlad's partner? That doesn't seem right Brain, those two have flourished together of late". THE LIGHTS GO DIM AS DREW BLOOD's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO HIS TRADITIONAL BLOOD SPATTERED ENTRANCE WITH THE IC BELT AROUND HIS WAIST. Heenan:"I don't know Cole, I don't know if I'd trust Vlad completely". Cole:"Well switching gears a minute as you see Drew Blood make his way out and what a performance by him at Foul Play as he put an end to the long reign of Rhyno and this guy is really turning into one of the top superstars we've ever had here Brain". Heenan:"He certainly has been that and not to mention a very big time performer. When the stakes are high, this guy always come out on top". Cole:"The title won't be on the line in this match but it's a match in which D'Lo Brown could turn his career on PrimeTime around". Non- Title D'Lo Brown vs. IC Champion Drew Blood D'Lo came out on fire, taking the fight to the champion. After a hard clothesline and a great powerslam, D'Lo set Blood up for a running powerbomb but he countered with a back drop. When D'Lo got up, Blood dropped him with a jumping kick to the back of the head. He then went to a side leg lock as D'Lo tried to crawl to the ropes. But as the crowd got behind him, D'Lo wormed his way out and dropped Blood with a sidewalk slam. He then locked in a Texas cloverleaf in the center of the ring. With pain etched on his face, Blood crawled to the ropes to break the hold. But after ducking a clothesline, D'Lo caught Drew Blood with a nice calf kick followed by his signature legdrop. He hooked the leg 1....2.... ,but at the last second Drew Blood's shoulder shot up off the canvas. D'Lo then picked him up and set him on the top turnbuckle for a superplex but Blood countered it with 2 shots to the kidneys. He then came off with a sunset flip into a powerbomb, banging the back of D'Lo's head on the mat and bringing the crowd to their feet. Blood then delivered the "Blood Bath" and got the 1...2...3. to earn the victory over a very game D'Lo. Match Time: 5:24 Cole:"Wow, D'Lo's gonna have a headache for a week"! Heenan:"And the wins just keep piling up for Drew Blood, what a magnificent athlete"! Cole:"He was pushed to the limit tonight by D'Lo who fell just a little bit short of a big upset". COMMERCIAL.... RETURN FROM BREAK... BACKSTAGE... VLAD THE IMPALER IS WALKING TO HIS DRESSING ROOM WHEN HARDCORE HOLLY COMES UP. Holly:"Hey Vlad". VLAD TURNS AROUND. Vlad:"What's up man"? Holly:"I can't cut it as your partner? What the hell is that man"? Vlad:"What are you talking about"? Holly:"Some guy came up to me in the hall a few minutes ago and said you were talkin' trash". Vlad:"Wait a minute, I bet it's the same punk who told me that Tajiri wanted to accept my open challenge that night. Listen man, I didn't say any of that crap and I think we've got a little problem to take care of". Holly:"I'm with ya on that". EXTREME JAPAN 2000's THEME HITS AS YUJI MATASAMO AND HAYABUSA COME OUT. HAYABUSA WAVES THE JAPANESE FLAG AS THE CROWD BOOS LOUDLY. Cole:"Who is this backstage informant Brain"? Heenan:"I don't know, but it sounds like he's trying to stir a pot that doesn't exist". Cole:"Well it's time for our main event tonight and I just have one question. Does Hayabusa own a manager's license"? Heenan:"Not to my knowledge". "THE GAME" BY MOTORHEAD HITS AS TRIPLE H COMES OUT TO ONE OF THE LOUDEST OVATIONS ALL NIGHT. Cole:"Then why the heck is he out here? Unless Extreme Japan knows that it'll take both of them to defeat the game". Heenan:"I wouldn't be so sure Cole. Matasamo is coming off a huge win over Dylan Jansens at Foul Play so he has a lot of momentum on his side". Cole:"Triple H of course became the number one contender for the TWF Title at Foul Play and is slated to face The Undertaker for it at Evil Intentions so this has to be the biggest match of Yuji Matasamo's TWF career". Heenan:"Oh I agree and I think he'll make the most of it". Yuji Matasamo vs. Triple H Triple H agressively attacked Matasamo right away, taking him out of his gameplan. After several hard right hands knocked him down in the corner, Triple H stomped away at his chest until referee Tim White pulled him away. Triple H continued to pound away at Matasamo. He then whipped him to the corner but Matasamo moved out of the way and turned the tide with a dropkick to the knee. He then battered the chest of the game with several hard knifedge chops, leaving red marks. But after ducking a clothesline, Triple H caught him with a flying knee to the face. After a facebuster to the knee, Matasamo took a half hearted swing at Triple H but he ducked, kicked him in the stomach and delivered the Pedigree to get the win. Match Time: 5:58 Cole:"Triple H has defeated Yuji Matasamo here in impressive fashion.... wait a minute, it's that red devil The Undertaker"! BEFORE TRIPLE H COULD TURN AROUND, HE WAS STRUCK IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD BY THE UNDERTAKER WHO HAD A CHAIN WRAPPED AROUND HIS FIST. HE HAMMERED AWAY AT THE FACE OF THE GAME AND THREATENED SEVERAL OFFICIALS WHO CAME OUT TO HELP. TRIPLE H WAS LEFT LAYING IN THE RING A BLOODY PULP. Heenan:"The Undertaker has sent a message! You're in his yard Triple H"! Cole:"Triple H has been brutalized by the TWF champion! Will he even make it to Evil Intentions"? COMMERCIAL....
