AFTER THE OPENING MONTAGE VIDEO, AN INCREDIBLY EERIE TUNE STARTS TO PLAY. WHISPERS CAN BE HEARD IN THE BACKGROUND, BUT IT's UNCLEAR WHAT THEY'RE SAYING. STILL SHOTS ARE SHOWN FROM CODE RED's TLC MATCH FOR THE UNIVERSAL TITLE BETWEEN JORDAN ROCKWELL AND JOE COREY. THE PICTURE OF THE APPARENTLY LIVING KID GUNDAM IS SHOWN AFTER HE ASSAULTED ROCKWELL AND THE FINAL PICTURE DEPICTS THE LOOK ON THE FACE OF A FAN IN COMPLETE SHOCK OVER WHAT HE IS WATCHING.

"BARBIE GIRL" BY AQUA IS PLAYING AS THE ACTION PICKS UP LIVE AND KEN DOLL IS ON HIS WAY TO THE RING WITH LACEY VON ERICH.

Michael Cole: "Shock and dismay, surprise and disbelief..... those are just some of the emotions coming out of Code Red! Welcome to TWF PrimeTime, I'm Michael Cole alongside the always witty Scott Hudson and we are live from the City of Angels"!

Scott Hudson: "What we saw at Code Red was nothing short of the most shocking moment in the history of professional wrestling, Michael, bar none! I'm still in shock and I'm still wondering if some sort of crime has been committed. I mean, Kid Gundam, alive"?

Cole: "We will hear from both Jordan Rockwell and Joe Corey tonight and we understand that "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, the president of the TWF Board of Directors will address the Kid Gundam situation himself. But right now, we are rapidly moving to Denver and WrestleMania 12 and this will be a WrestleMania Jackpot qualifying match"!

"THIS AIN'T NO MAKE BELIEVE" COMES ON AND JOHN MORRISON RECEIVES A VERY GOOD CHEER BEFORE MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING.

Hudson: "For those who missed it, Dolph Ziggler has already qualified for that match and he will be joined by one of these men. Either way, it will be a great addition to that match".

Cole: "Either way? No, I say only if Ken Doll advances. What is Morrison going to add to that match...... a fur coat and some shades? Come on, this guy is......

Hudson: "I'll tell ya what Morrison is, Michael. He's on the cusp of that next level in my mind and a match like this gives him great opportunity to get there".

WrestleMania Jackpot Qualification Match

Ken Doll w/ Lacey Von Erich vs. John Morrison

The bell sounded and these two got right after it as a briefcase symbolically hung over the ring, the same one both men would have a chance to win at WrestleMania. Morrison was able to gain the early advantage with some quick strikes and a kick to the midsection. Off an irish whip, he went for a clothesline but Doll ducked and tried to spring off the ropes with a reverse crossbody but Morrison countered with a dropkick, taking him right out of the air. Morrison then landed his breakdance legdrop and went into a cover, getting a 2 count. He pulled Doll up and tried to set up a suplex but Doll swung out of it and pull JoMo right into an impaler DDT. Doll shook off some of the shots he had taken and he got Morrison up, pushing him to the corner. After smashing his chest with some knifedge chops, Doll whipped him to the opposite corner and charged in, but Morrison countered with a foot to the face. Doll stayed on his feet and ran back in, eating a back elbow. From there, Morrison went to the ropes and flew off with his flying reverse kick, catching Doll right in the face. Morrison made the cover and hooked the leg, getting 1............2..........., but Doll was up. Morrison got Doll up and lifted him to the top rope, climbing up with him. He clearly wanted to pull off a superplex but as he tried to set it up, Doll fought it off. He tried to push Morrison off the turnbuckle but Morrison held on and then jumped up, looking for a frankensteiner. Instinctively, Doll used both hands to grab either side of the top rope to block the move but Morrison went down the mat, landing very hard on the back of the head. This set Doll up perfectly for his flying legdrop on which he got tremendous height and landed it very hard. Doll was able to then roll onto the prone Morrison and hook a leg, getting the 3 count.

Match Time: 5:19

Cole: "Ken Doll has done it! Ken Doll has qualified for the Jackpot! How much better does this make WrestleMania"?!

Hudson: "Yes, Michael, you and Ken Doll's other two fans must be thrilled right now".

"BARBIE GIRL" PLAYED AGAIN AND LACEY CAME INTO THE RING TO CELEBRATE WITH DOLL. THE FANS DIDN'T SEEM TO WANT TO JOIN IN ON THE CELEBRATION, HOWEVER.

Cole: "Like it or not, Ken Doll will have a chance to climb a ladder, pull down that briefcase and have a guaranteed shot at either the World or Universal title"!

BACKSTAGE..... DRESSING ROOM....

CAMERAS CATCH A CONVERSATION BETWEEN EVE TORRES AND CALEB WEBER, OBVIOUSLY TALKING ABOUT WHAT WENT DOWN AT CODE RED.

Eve: "How could you let her play you like that?"

Caleb Weber: "Because I'm stupid and I suck at being a ref," he said half-sarcastically.

Eve: "Caleb, I'm serious."

Caleb Weber: "What do you want me to say, Eve? That I let Velvet hit you with a pair of brass knuckles? That I wanted her to have the Femme Fatale championship?"

Eve: "Well? Did you?"

Caleb could only shake his head. He put his hand on Eve's shoulder and looked down at the floor, then raised his eyes to meet hers.

Caleb Weber: "Listen, I'm not perfect but if we're going to stay together, you're going to have to trust me. Because if you don't, there's no real reason to keep this up."

Caleb gives her a quick kiss on the cheek and left Eve in the locker room to sort it out herself.

A COMMERCIAL FOR TWIX IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PROMO FOR THE NFL ON FOX.

RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.....

Mark Henry vs. Zack Ryder

When PrimeTime returned, there was action in the ring. On the last PrimeTime, Zack Ryder was looking to make a strong impression on The Empire and attacked the World's Strongest Man. Now, Henry was looking to make him pay for it. Ryder clearly wanted to elude the mound of muscle, trying to wear him out by having him chase him around the ring. Trying to employ a stick and move attack, Ryder landed some kicks on the legs of Henry but after hitting the ropes, he jumped right into a bear hug. As Henry squeezed away at Ryder, the fans actually got behind the man who calls himself "Long Island Iced Z". Henry had a good grip on him, but an ear clap earned Ryder a separation. After ducking a clothesline, he sprung into the air and connected with a flying back elbow. Following a dropkick, Ryder nearly took Henry off his feet. He then ran the ropes again but Henry stepped up and just erased him with a clothesline. Henry would continue to dominate the match before pulling Ryder up and lifting him into a military press before just throwing him across the ring. Henry started to laugh as he began to toy around with Ryder. He rag dolled him again, pulling him to his feet and whipping him to the corner. With a head of steam, Henry ran in with an avalanche but Ryder moved out of the way and went down to his hands and knees. As Henry backed out of the corner he tripped backwards over Ryder and Ryder was able to capitalize by turning it into a pin and shockingly getting the 3 count.

Match Time: 6:19

Cole: "What the hell"?!

Hudson: "Zack Ryder has done it! What a huge win for him and you gotta think that The Empire is impressed with that"!

"OH RADIO" PLAYED AS ZACK RYDER CELEBRATED ONE OF THE BIGGEST WINS OF 2011.

Cole: "Look, I can tell ya right now that The Empire is not impressed with this goof. He got lucky tonight, plain and simple".

JUST THEN, JORDAN ROCKWELL HIT THE RING STILL DRESSED IN HIS STREET CLOTHES AND HE DROPPED RYDER WITH A RIGHT HAND. FROM THERE, A CLEARLY FIRED UP ROCKWELL SLAPPED ON A SUBMISSION HOLD THAT WAS VERY SIMILAR TO THE CROSSFACE. RYDER STARTED TO TAP OUT BUT ROCKWELL REFUSED TO LET IT GO AND RYDER FINALLY SEEMED TO PASS OUT.

Hudson: "Jordan Rockwell has completely lost it...........

Cole: "Don't tell me he's still whining over what happened at Code Red..... get over it Rockwell"!

Jordan Rockwell: "So let me get this right...... The man that we all thought was dead and buried is literally alive and kicking and he decides to come back and make his return at my expense?

The fans boo as Rockwell rolls his left sleeve up on his shirt while the camera zooms in close on the tattoo he has on his inner forearm......

Ya see this! I got this tattoo of a broken heart to represent those in this thing of ours that passed on and you were one of those that this represented because that's how much all of our fallen but never forgotten mean to me because without them there is no me.

The fans cheer

And this is how much you meant to me because I never forgot how when I first walked into this company ten years ago you were the guy that took me under his wing and taught me the right way to be, Jesus Christ this shows you how much this business means to me.

The fans begin chants of Rockwell........ And yes that's how much these people here tonight and all the fans around the world mean to me, but like I said this is how you want to return well that's okay and believe me when I say it's okay. If this is how you want it to be then this is how it will be because from now on there is no more nice guy and there is no more fun, games and joking nor will there be any mercy or forgiveness. In a nutshell, the dark days of the TWF will begin and it begins right here tonight! And Gundam, I find it fitting that for years you hid from life when now you come to my world asking for death"!

Rockwell drops the mic as "Save Me" by Burn Halo hits and he walks up the aisle to the back, slapping hands with a few fans.

Hudson: "Jordan Rockwell means business...... that's what I took from that".

Cole: "Do you really think that Kid Gundam is worried about anything he just said. I mean, did we expect anything less from the so called Franchise of the TWF besides his usual empty threats"?

Hudson: "Stone Cold Steve Austin will be here later tonight and he has said that he will address this whole situation. That is going to be very interesting".

BACKSTAGE.......

CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW COLT CABANA KNOCKING ON THE DOOR OF THE EMPIRE SUITE. HE IS ALLOWED IN BY ALBA RIOS, BUT IT APPEARS HE HAS TO TALK HIS WAY IN AS SHE IS AT FIRST HESITANT.

BACK INSIDE THE RING, GREGORY HELMS IS WAITING HIS OPPOSITION AS "IT's TIME" PLAYS.

THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND A LOUD CHEER IS SOON HEARD WHEN STING's MUSIC STARTS TO PLAY. THE SPOTLIGHT PICKS UP THE SHADOWY FIGURE THAT IS STING MAKING HIS WAY TO THE RING.

Hudson: "Back to the action here on PrimeTime from Los Angeles, California and here comes a man who I am still completely thrilled is part of the TWF. He really is one of the greatest of all time".

Cole: "And at Code Red, we saw him get put into a random matchup with Rampage's young towering monster CJ Lethal and Sting made quick work of him".

Hudson: "CJ Lethal may still have a very strong future in this company but Sting has been on a mission since his arrival here and he's looked great".

Cole: "But don't sell Gregory Helms short. He's likely been planning all day long on how to upset Sting here tonight. Hell, we just saw that fool Zack Ryder get a win over Mark Henry.... anything's possible"!

Gregory Helms vs. Sting

As Sting talked with referee Marty Elias, Helms tried to attack him from behind but Sting was ready, jabbing Helms in the abdomen before rocking him with a right hand. Helms got up and Sting headbutted him, knocking him into the corner. Sting walked in but Helms responded with a kick before grabbing him around the head and running off the corner, driving the back of Sting's head into the mat. Helms got up and stomped on Sting several times before making his way back to the corner. Sting got up and Helms flew in, connecting with a vicious shining wizard. Helms eagerly made the cover, hooking the leg and getting the 1.................2..................., but Sting was up. Frustrated, Helms pulled Sting up and tried to whip him to the corner. But after reversing it, Sting flew in with a perfect Stinger Splash. After a sharp right hand, he went to get the legs of Helms but Helms got a handful of tights and pulled Sting forward into the middle turnbuckle. Helms then took off again, flying into the corner. But he became entangled between the top and middle ropes when Sting moved out of the way. Helms fought to get free but Sting came around and grabbed him, delivering the Deathdrop DDT from Helms' prone position. This allowed Sting to get the 3 count and the win.

Match Time: 3:00

Hudson: "A great way to finish that one there by Sting, coming up with the Deathdrop DDT from the corner and no one is kicking out of that".

Cole: "Oh what, he wants to talk to? Ya know, they may as well just lay a microphone in the ring since apparently everyone wants to talk tonight".

STING IS HANDED A MICROPHONE AND THE CROWD STARTS TO CHEER AS HIS MUSIC STOPS.

Sting: "Thank you, thank you guys. Trust me, I don't plan to take up a lot of time with one of those long winded speeches, but I just have one small piece of business to get out of the way. So if I could, there's one member of The Empire who I actually will talk to man to man, so Travis Wakeman, if you could come out here, please do..... it won't take long".

Hudson: "Sting is asking for the owner of the TWF..... what's this about"?

Cole: "Is this guy serious? Does he not realize how busy a man Travis Wakeman is? He doesn't have.........

JUST THEN, THE EMPIRE THEME PLAYS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN APPEARS FROM THE BACK. HE IS WEARING SOME LOOSE FITTING LIGHT BLUE JEANS AND A PLAIN WHITE T-SHIRT. HE ALSO HAS ON A DENVER NUGGETS HAT, TURNED BACKWARDS.

Hudson: "Here he comes...... Travis Wakeman, in the flesh".

WAKEMAN HAS A MICROPHONE AND GETS IN THE RING AS THE ANTICIPATION STARTS TO BUILD.

Sting: "Thanks for coming out here and let me just get straight to the point. Travis, we had a deal..... we had a deal when I signed with you and I intend to see that deal through. So please, update me on the status of that deal".

Travis Wakeman: "I know we had a deal and I am still working on it, trust me..... but I can't find him".

Sting: "Oooooookay. I think I made myself clear when I signed here.... when I allowed the TWF to talk me into finally competing for them. It was for two reasons. It was so that I could perform in front of the legions of great fans out there.............

THE CROWD POPS

And it was to finally give the world the match they've been talkin' about for decades. The all time dream match in our business and Wakeman, you said you could make it happen. It's in my contract. I signed it, you signed it. It's in my contract to face The Undertaker at WrestleMania 12".

A MASSIVE CHEER EMERGES FROM THE CROWD.

Hudson: "What?! You gotta be kiddin' me"!

Travis Wakeman: "I know and I am going to go out of my way to make that match happen. I'm not into all this dark side stuff..... this outer world stuff..... so I have some people who are trying to find out where he is..... because no one seems to know. But take my word, Sting..... I..........

Sting: "No, that's not what I'm looking for. I don't want to hear that you're going to try. I want to hear that the match is official. Because if not, it may be another legend that has to get into the ring and take his place".

STING USES THE MICROPHONE AND POINTS IT AT WAKEMAN AS HE MAKES THAT FINAL STATEMENT. HE THEN LAYS THE MIC DOWN AS HIS MUSIC STARTS TO PLAY AGAIN AND HE LEAVES THE RING.

Hudson: "I'm still trying to digest what we just heard. Do you realize how long fans of this business have been clamoring for a match between Sting and The Undertaker? And what better place for it to happen than right here in the TWF"?

Cole: "Yes but as our owner just said, contract or not, it may be impossible"!

THE CAMERA GETS A SHOT OF WAKEMAN LOOKING AT STING AS HE WALKS AWAY.

Hudson: "I think Wakeman better find a way to make that one happen".

Invitational Tag Team Tournament 2nd Round

Wrath and Mortis vs. Kings of Wrestling

Up next was a match within the ongoing tag team tournament and two of the favorites to win the tournament were matched up here. Wrath and Mortis were coming off an impressive first round win but the wrestling world has been enamored with the team of Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli for years, the only team to win a match against a team already under TWF contract. Hero started the match off against Mortis and into a lockup they went. Mortis quickly slipped his right hand under the throat of Hero, using it to choke him. Referee Scott Armstrong moved in to get a break and Mortis released the choke, throwing a right hand. But Hero blocked it and came back with 2 hard rights of his own. After a drop toehold, he grabbed the masked Mortis and began pulling awkwardly at his head and neck area. Wrath came in and put a boot to Hero to break the hold. Hero was able to get to his corner and make the tag to Claudio Castagnoli. Mortis didn't see the tag and charged at Hero with a clothesline. But when Hero ducked, Castagnoli struck with a vicious bicycle kick. He then pulled Mortis up and gave Wrath a long look before striking with a European uppercut and no one throws it like Claudio does. Almost surprisingly, Castagnoli then got Mortis up in a military press and threw him to his corner. After Mortis crashed into the mat, Wrath slapped his shoulder to tag himself in and Wrath met Castagnoli in the center of the ring. A tradeoff of punches ensued and Wrath began to get the best of it. He then hit the ropes and Castagnoli again went for the bicycle kick but Wrath moved and then dropped him with a clothesline to the back of the head. Wrath pulled Claudio to his feet and whipped him to the corner. He ran in but was met with a back elbow and Castagnoli then made the tag to Hero. Hero came in with a dropkick to the right knee of Wrath followed by a huge jumping DDT. Mortis came into the ring and struck Hero from behind. He then tried to lock him up for the "Flatliner" but Castagnoli came back into the ring and nailed Mortis, breaking the hold. After tripping Mortis up, Castagnoli grabbed his legs, lifted him up and actually began to perform the giant swing! After taking Mortis around 5 or 6 times, Hero hit the ropes and drilled Mortis with a dropkick to the side of the head inside the swing! The crowd loved the show K.O.W. was putting on but Wrath came from behind and smashed Hero who was still the legal man. As Armstrong ushered Castagnoli to his corner, Wrath got Hero up and delivered a backdrop suplex. He made the cover and got a 2 count before Hero was up. Wrath tried to get Hero up for the "Meltdown" but Hero slipped off his shoulders. Wrath turned and kicked him in the gut before making the tag to Mortis. Mortis came in and again went for the Flatliner but Hero elbowed his way free and then put Mortis down with a jumping insuguri. Castagnoli tagged into the match and seeing the state Mortis was in, he went over and tagged Wrath with a shot that knocked him off the apron and to the floor. Castagnoli then kicked Mortis low and hooked him up, delivering the incredible move he calls the Ricola Bomb. Armstrong moved into position and made the 3 count.

Match Time: 5:28

Hudson: "Ya know I'm not sure if you caught their match at the Royal Rumble against the Hart Dynasty, but paired with this result, these guys are awesome"!

Cole: "Oh of course they are. You sound like all of those idiots that sit around their computers all day blogging and tweeting about these guys! What have they ever done besides wrestle in front of a couple hundred people?! Who cares"?!

Hudson: "Cole you have the blinders on as always because they have defeated two great, great teams in this tournament".

Cole: "That's fine, maybe they'll win the tournament so all the fanboys out there can watch them get fed to The BoogeySaints...... completely fine by me"!

BACKSTAGE..... CALEB WEBER's DRESSING ROOM.....

IN THE BACK, CALEB WEBER IS SHOWN AND HE SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE DOWN WHEN THERE IS A KNOCK AT THE DOOR. VELVET SKY ENTERS AND SHE HAS HER NEWLY WON FEMME FATALE TITLE WITH HER.

Velvet Sky: "There you are.... everything worked out perfectly".

VELVET GIVES CALEB A HUG BUT HE PUSHES HER AWAY.

Caleb Weber: "I have no idea what you're talkin' about".

Velvet Sky: "Oh come on, Caleb, like you didn't want me to beat Eve at Code Red. Now you and I can finally do our thing".

Caleb Weber: "Are you kidding? This has all put a huge strain on my relationship with Eve....... get out"!

VELVET IS CLEARLY MAD AS CALEB RAISES HIS VOICE.

Velvet Sky: "You'll regret this".

Caleb Weber: "I said get out".

WEBER POINTS TO THE DOOR AND VELVET TURNS AND LEAVES.

BACK TO THE RING AND THE SOUND OF BREAKING GLASS IS HEARD. THE CROWD GOES NUTS WHEN "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN COMES OUT FROM THE BACK.

Cole: "I have to say this...... what has that guy done to deserve to be between Eve and Velvet? And no offense to Eve, but what kind of fool would turn down an advance from Velvet Sky"?

Hudson: "Some people have a lot more honor than you, Michael, but right now, the Texas Rattlesnake has come out and he looks like he has a bone to pick"!

Steve Austin: "I know you all are wondering what the hell is going on in the TWF after what you saw at Code Red. Something no one saw coming..... Kid Gundam returns to the TWF and costs Jordan Rockwell the title.

THE CROWD LOUDLY BOOS

So what kind of can of worms has this opened? I mean, the guy was supposed to have died from cancer, or was that just some stupid internet rumor? No, I'd bet my ass that the sumbitch was in the TWF Hall of Fame. I'd bet my ass that somewhere along the line, the great guys and gals here have paid tribute to what they thought was a fallen brother. I'll tell ya how this is gonna go down. For the first time in TWF history, a man will be stripped of his enshrinement into the TWF Hall of Fame"!

THE CROWD CHEERS

Hudson: "Wow........

Steve Austin: "Kid Gundam, you are one sick, sorry son of a bitch and as far as I'm concerned, you have no business in the TWF Hall of Fame"!

JUST THEN, THE LIGHTS IN THE ARENA START TO FLICKER AND AN EERIE TUNE STARTS TO PLAY.

Hudson: "Wait, what the hell is this"?

Cole: "It just really cold in this place".

SUDDENLY, A VOICE BEGINS TO SPEAK, COMING OVER THE PUBLIC ADDRESS SYSTEM.

Voice: "Steve...... for starters, you can drop the Kid..... it's just Gundam now. And you think I care for one minute about the TWF Hall of Fame? STRIP ME OF IT! I've waited for six years for the right time to strike and what's the question on everyone's mind? Why...... why did you do it"?

Steve Austin: "The question on my mind right now is actually why can't you show your face you cheap bastard"?

THE CROWD CHEERS

Gundam: "Shut your mouth! This is a serious situation and I'm not out here to get into a battle of catchphrases. Yes, I faked my own death and I had all of you people fooled. You don't deserve to know why, but it was always clear that I never got the respect I deserved from this company, my family, my friends, my peers. I am still alive, but all of those people are dead to me.... all the fans..... but especially the target of my return..... Jordan Rockwell. Rockwell, you have ran around here for far too long making the kids happy and telling your stupid jokes..... I am here for one reason and one reason only...... to make the heartbeat of the TWF stop".

Steve Austin: "So what you're saying is that not only are you such a coward that you'll attack a man from behind and cost him a big match, you won't show your face here tonight, but you also want to try and return to a spot that you number one don't deserve, but.........

Gundam: "Make the match for WrestleMania, Austin and quit running your mouth. You have no idea the danger when you're dealing with someone who has absolutely no conscience".

Austin: "Fine, the match is made for WrestleMania 12...... you versus Rockwell in Denver. But let me tell you one more thing.... if you........

Gundam: "Good night, Austin".

THE VOICE FADES OUT AND AUSTIN IS CLEARLY ANGRY, THROWING THE MICROPHONE OUT OF THE RING.

Cole: "Gundam would not give Steve Austin the satisfaction of having the last word".

Hudson: "Well let me say this because he can't cut me off. What kind of a man fakes his own death? What kind of a man is happy to be stripped of the highest honor in this business of being in the Hall of Fame and what kind of man would allow him to come back here"?

Cole: "I think there's a lot more to this situation than we're aware of but one thing is for sure, the man who calls himself the Franchise of the TWF is the one who has to get in the way of this guy at WrestleMania".

Hudson: "Personally, I don't think the match should happen. I sense danger in the coming weeks and it's given me a very, very bad taste in my mouth".

COMMERCIAL BREAK.........

A COMMERCIAL FOR SPORTS AUTHORITY IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A TRAILER FOR THE MOVIE "RISE OF THE PLANET OF THE APES".

RETURN FROM BREAK..... RINGSIDE......

WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, THE 'MOSCOW MAULER', VLADIMIR KOZLOV IS SHOWN IN THE RING AND HIS MUSIC IS PLAYING.

Hudson: "We're back live on PrimeTime on the FOX network and there is still a stunned silence over this arena over the words we just heard from the mouth of the man now known only as Gundam".

Cole: "I have a feeling by the time we get to Denver for WrestleMania, that will have turned into one of the most personal, most surreal situations in TWF history".

"REMEMBER THE NAME" BY FORT MINOR STRIKES UP AND CHAOS WOLF MAKES HIS WAY OUT FROM THE BACK ALONG WITH THE BIG MAN, BRODUS CLAY. HE IS GREETED BY SOMEWHAT OF A MIXED RESPONSE.

Hudson: "Chaos Wolf is set to take on Vladimir Kozlov here in what should be a very physical matchup but Wolf has Brodus Clay by his side".

Cole: "And this is a guy I just don't quite understand, Scott, I never have. What is it that makes Chaos Wolf tick"?

Hudson: "Well I'm sure both of these men would like to be a part of the huige extravaganza that is WrestleMania and a win here would go a long way to getting themself on the card".

Vladimir Kozlov vs. Chaos Wolf w/ Brodus Clay

The bell rings to start the match and Kozlov steps forth into the center of the ring, trying to intimidate Wolf. Wolf takes a look at Clay and then strikes Kozlov with a right hand followed by a kick to the midsection. He then runs the ropes but Kozlov is waiting with a headbutt to the chest that stops Wolf in his tracks. After getting Wolf to his feet, Kozlov traps both of his arms and delivers a succession of headbutts before throwing Wolf over his head with a belly to belly suplex. Kozlov goes into the cover and gets a 2 count before Wolf rolls his shoulder off the mat. Kozlov pulls him up and slings him into the corner. But as he runs in, Wolf sticks a foot out to kick him in the abdomen. Wolf then gets his head low, under the body of Kozlov and lifts him over the top rope and to the floor with a backdrop. As Wolf gets in the face of referee Charles Robinson, Clay gets Kozlov up on the outside and rams him into the steel ring post before rolling him back in the ring. After being manhandled by Clay, Kozlov gets up and eats a nasty shuffle kick from Wolf that knocks him into the corner. Wolf then runs into the corner but Kozlov is waiting with a back elbow that catches him right on the chin. Kozlov runs out of the corner with a clothesline but after Wolf ducks that, he sneaks in a low kick and then hits the "Chaos Driver" to put Kozlov away.

Match Time: 3:37

Hudson: "Kozlov just felt the full effect of that Chaos Driver and it leads to a big win for Chaos Wolf".

Cole: "Oh great, now this guy wants to talk to. Can he even form a sentence"?

CHAOS WOLF ASKS FOR AND IS GIVEN A MICROPHONE. HE ALSO ASKS FOR A CHAIR FROM THE FLOOR WHICH HE SETS DOWN IN THE CENTER OF THE RING AND SITS IN AS BRODUS CLAY IS STANDING NEXT TO HIM.

Chaos Wolf: "You know for too long I have sat back and watched as The Empire has bitched and moaned about things going your way concerning Jordan Rockwell like a bunch of bitches on PMS. Now I could care less about him but there is one thing that I agree with him on and it is that you are like a cancer slowly killing this great company. You see the people here tonight and the millions at home watching want to see real wrestling not you morons and the shit you try to shove down their throats. There are wrestlers like myself that have busted their ass for seven years and have only received one Universal title shot. There are wrestlers like Jordan Rockwell that have given everything they are to the fans that love them. Yet we have someone like Money Mike that has had one of, if not the worst careers in the TWF but does he get fired? No, instead he is made the Vice President...... what a joke. Let me tell you all something, Money Mike wouldn’t know talent if it hit him the face before kicking him in the nuts. I mean why else are people that are gifted with the talent or ability to help bring the roof down at every event not employed here? People like AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Kurt Angle, just to name a few. Now the reason for Mike being Vice President is very simple.... he licks up whatever Trish isn’t able to swallow.

THE CROWD, ANNOUCERS, AND ESPECIALLY THE EMPIRE ARE SHOCKED SLIENT.

Now there is talk about Jordan knowing a secret that pertains to you Travis, and it just so happens that he shared it with me about six years ago when the New Breed was still around. He told me that you were a liar, jealous, and a chicken shit. Now since for some reason neither of you have the balls to say what it is then I’ll do it for you, but I’m going to reveal it in parts. You Travis, are jealous of people like Jordan, myself, and everyone else in the back that bust their ass day in and day out so that they can show how much they appreciate them. You Travis, are jealous of the fact that in the eyes of your peers, in the eyes of your family, most importantly in the eyes of the fans, you have become nothing more than a God damn after thought and it eats you up inside because you know it to be true.

WOLF STARES AROUND AT THE CROWD AND NOTICES THAT SEVERAL FANS ARE CHEERING HIS WORDS.

Oh and there's one more thing..........

WOLF STANDS FROM THE CHAIR AND PICKS IT UP, FOLDING IT OVER. HE THEN TURN AND CRACKS CLAY WITH IT, KNOCKING HIM TO THE MAT! THAT GETS A HUGE REACTION FROM THE CROWD.

Cole: "Oh that's smart..... what the hell is this guy doing"?!

Chaos Wolf: "I never wanted that sack of shit placed with me! That must have been another one of those Empire ideas that was forced on us..... well you can take this piece of crap back where you found him"!

WOLF THROWS THE MICROPHONE ASIDE AND LEAVES THE RING TO THE SOUND OF "REMEMBER THE NAME" AND ONE OF THE BIGGEST CHEERS HE's EVER RECEIVED.

Cole: "Um, what the hell was that"?

Hudson: "Chaos Wolf with some very strong words for those in power here in the TWF, you have to wonder if there will be any repercussions following that tirade".

Cole: "He should be out of a job! I mean, he just knocked out the guy who won him this match here tonight and now he's calling out The Empire?! You're brilliant, Wolf, bravo!

COLE CAN BE HEARD CLAPPING AS WOLF WALKS AWAY.

I mean what an absolute idiot! I hope The Empire fires this goof"!

BACKSTAGE...... THE EMPIRE SUITE......

TRAVIS WAKEMAN, MONEY MIKE, TRISH STRATUS AND STEPHANIE McMAHON ARE WATCHING THE ACTION FROM A LARGE TV IN THEIR SUITE, CLAMORING OVER WHAT WAS JUST SAID OUT IN THE RING. THE WOMEN SEEM TO BE ESPECIALLY FURIOUS BUT WAKEMAN HAS A CALM DEMEANOR. THE CAMERA MOVES OVER TO ANOTHER PART OF THE ROOM WHERE CARNEY AND ALBA RIOS ARE HAVING A PRIVATE CONVERSATION.

Carney: "I can't worry about all that..... I'm just happy to be facing Kofi Kingston in a WrestleMania Jackpot qualifying match either at TWF Main Event or on the next PrimeTime, wherever they put the match".

Alba Rios: "I'm happy for you and I know you'll qualify, but there is something I really need to talk to you.........

BEFORE ALBA CAN GET THE WORDS OUT OF HER MOUTH, A CELL PHONE RINGS. CARNEY REACHES INTO HIS POCKET AND PULLS IT OUT. AFTER ANSWERING IT, HE GETS UP AND WALKS AWAY AND ALBA LETS OUT A DEEP SIGH.

THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING AND "AMAZING" BY KANYE WEST COMES ON. THE BOOS START FAST AND GROW VERY LOUD AS JOE COREY COMES OUT WITH THE TWF UNIVERSAL TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER.

Cole: "Here we go.... now we're gettin' down to business"!

THE CAMERA GETS A SHOT OF COLE GIVING COREY A STANDING OVATION AS HE COMES TO THE RING.

Hudson: "Here comes the man who is now heading to the main event at WrestleMania, escaping another title defense with the help of higher authority".

Cole: "But he still has that title with him..... or am I seeing things"?

Joe Corey: "I can tell by the boos that I am still the most successful man in this company.

THE BOOS START TO GRADUALLY GET LOUDER.

Go ahead, keep the boos coming. But whether you like it or not, I am once again heading to WrestleMania to compete in one of the marquee matches! I am once again the guy that this company will rely on to put asses in seats! And ya know what, I'll do it. Jordan Rockwell, I am so sick and tired of you. I know you think that you are the rightful champion, but once Gundam is done with you, I doubt I'll ever have to listen to your annoying, overrated ass again! And by the way, Rockwell, if you even look.............

JUST THEN,"CAPRICORN" BY 30 SECONDS TO MARS COMES ON AND THE BRAND NEW INTERCONTINENTAL CHAMPION MAKES HIS WAY OUT TO THE RING ALONG WITH AJ LEE.

Cole: "Oh this is just gettin' better and better! Another great champion, on his way out here"!

Hudson: "Joe Corey looks less than thrilled that he has been interrupted here by M.X. Ogden.... what's goin' on"?

OGDEN HAS A MICROPHONE WITH HIM AND HE AND AJ GET INTO THE RING. OGDEN, LIKE COREY, IS NOT DRESSED TO COMPETE.

M.X. Ogden: "You're the one who's going to sell WrestleMania? Well that may be, but it doesn't mean you're the best".

Joe Corey: "This means I'm the best"!

COREY RAISES THE UNIVERSAL TITLE RIGHT IN OGDEN's FACE.

M.X. Ogden: "Think back several years ago, Joe....... do you remember when I came to the TWF? Cause I sure do..... as the so-called right hand man of you! Oh yeah, it was The Show and The Memory Maker. You were going to show me the ropes and we were going to go to the top together. But what happened? You decided you were going to do things differently and if that meant leaving me in the dust, that's just what it meant, right"?

Joe Corey: "Hey, I can't help the fact that you weren't on my level".

M.X. Ogden: "But that's just it, how does anyone know I'm not on your level? Have I ever faced you in the ring? Have I ever so much as sniffed the main event? And why is that, Joe..... is it...............

SUDDENLY, JOHN CENA's MUSIC COMES ON AND A GOOD PORTION OF THE CROWD GOES WILD.

Hudson: "Oh boy, look at this"!

Cole: "Get outta there, Corey.... hurry"!

WEARING A RED SHIRT AND HIS FAMILIAR JEAN SHORTS, JOHN CENA HEADS DOWN THE RAMP WITH A PURPOSE. ABOUT HALFWAY DOWN THE RAMP, HE STARTS TO RUN. BOTH COREY AND OGDEN STAND THEIR GROUND BUT WHEN CENA GETS IN THE RING, HE GOES STRAIGHT FOR OGDEN. AFTER TACKLING THE IC CHAMPION, CENA WAILS AWAY ON HIM WITH PUNCHES. MEANWHILE, COREY IS ABLE TO SNEAK OUT OF THE RING WITH HIS BELT AND AJ LEAVES THE RING TO GET OUT OF HARM's WAY. CENA PUMMELS OGDEN WITH PUNCHES AND THEN PICKS HIM UP, THROWING HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE FLOOR. THE CROWD IS GOING WILD AND CENA IS ALL FIRED UP AS HE TAKES THE IC BELT AND THROWS IT DOWN ON OGDEN.

Hudson: "John Cena has brutalized the Intercontinental champion but Corey got away"!

Cole: "Ogden took the bullet but Corey has gotten out of here"!

Hudson: "John Cena is back and he looks better than ever...... wow"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK............

A COMMERCIAL FOR MADDEN '12 IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A WRESTLEMANIA 12 PROMO...... LIVE AND ONLY ON PAY-PER-VIEW FROM DENVER!

Chris Jericho and Cody Rhodes vs. Sin Cara and Evan Bourne

Eager to redeem himself following losing the IC title, Jericho got into the ring across from the masked sensation Sin Cara. After locking up, Jericho backed him into the corner but Sin Cara slipped free and ran the ropes. Jericho missed with a clothesline and Sin Cara sprung off the ring ropes, using a reverse crossbody to take Jericho down. He then made the tag to Bourne who came in and got Jericho into the corner, attacking with kicks from both legs. Off an irish whip, he went for a hurricanrana but Jericho caught it and looked to turn it into a powerbomb. But Bourne fought that off with some punches to the head and then rolled down the back of Y2J, rolling him up for a 2 count. Bourne connected with a spinning jump kick to the face before making the tag back to Sin Cara. Sin Cara came in and went for a staple in Jericho's moveset, the Lionsault, but Jericho got his knees up. After taking Sin Cara down with a running bulldog, Jericho made it to his corner and tagged in young Cody Rhodes. Rhodes went right to work on Sin Cara, putting the boots to him. After a quick snap suplex, Rhodes pulled him to his feet and whipped him to the corner. Rhodes ran in but Sin Cara countered with a backdrop, depositing Rhodes on the ring apron. But Rhodes landed on his feet and with both hands, grabbed Sin Cara by the head and threw him into the mat. Rhodes then got back into the ring and tried to spring off the middle turnbuckle but he seemed to slip on the ropes and he fell to the mat. Trying to seize the opportunity, Bourne tagged himself in by touching Sin Cara's back amd then went to the top rope. He flew off with the sunset flip known as "Air Bourne" but Rhodes felt it coming, getting his knees up. He then grabbed Bourne, pulling him up and delivering "Cross Rhodes" to get the victory for his team.

Match Time: 4:40

Cole: "What a recovery by Cody Rhodes, that was great".

Hudson: "The Cross Rhodes has done Evan Bourne in and a big win for Rhodes and Jericho as we head to WrestleMania".

CODY RHODES' MUSIC PLAYED AND HE AND JERICHO LEFT THE RING TOGETHER, LOOKING VERY HAPPY ABOUT THE RESULT. IN THE RING, SIN CARA CHECKED ON HIS PARTNER, WHO STILL LOOKED A LITTLE DAZED.

BACKSTAGE........

IN THE BACK, LENA YADA IS WITH A FIRED UP JOHN CENA.

Lena Yada: "John, welcome back to PrimeTime".

John Cena: "Thank you, it's great to be back".

Lena Yada: "You got your hands on M.X. Ogden out there, but Joe Corey got away".

John Cena: "That's fine, Corey's day is coming but I want to end the speculation right now because I know there was a police investigation goin' on and everything..... but my target tonight was the man I got. Ogden, I know it was you who attacked me at DoomsDay. You don't cover your tracks too well, bro. So if it's a war with me that you want, it's a war you got........

CENA WALKS AWAY FROM THE INTERVIEW POSITION AND THE SHOT GOES TO THE RING.

THE FANS ARE AWESTRUCK AS A FAMILIAR FACE HAS ENTERED THE RING. IT's FORMER TWF SUPERSTAR PERRY SATURN.

Hudson: "I'm not sure what is going on here, but I know that's Saturn".

Cole: "Don't give him a microphone, he doesn't even work here"!

Perry Saturn: "I don't know how many of you remember me, nor do I care. But I have fallen on some very hard times these last few years and now I hear that some wet behind the ears punk is offering fifty thousand dollars to anyone who can beat him! PJ Cash..... I'm here to accept your little challenge"!

SATURN DROPS THE MIC AND TAKES OFF HIS SHIRT. HE IS NOW WEARING ONLY A PAIR OF JEANS.

Cole: "Okay, I think the rules of this challenge need to be explained to this moron. It's not open to anyone who feels like it"!

"HYSTERIA" BY MUSE COMES ON AND PJ CASH COMES OUT CARRYING HIS BRIEFCASE.

Hudson: "I know all about the troubles that Perry Saturn has come across but he is a former TWF European champion and one of the toughest guys this business has ever seen if you ask me".

PJ Cash: "I guess maybe I didn't make things clear when I wanted to actually get a challenge out of this idea. I mean, I go from facing a guy in a Halloween costume who I'm not sure even works here to facing a guy I know for a fact doesn't work here"?

Perry Saturn: "Are you gonna put the money up against me or are you gonna be a bitch"?

A COLLECTIVE "OHHHH" COMES FROM THE CROWD AS CASH CRACKS A GRIN AND TURNS TO SET THE BRIEFCASE DOWN. HE TRIES TO THROW A CHEAP SHOT BUT SATURN BLOCKS IT AND DROPS HIM WITH A RIGHT HAND. REFEREE MIKE CHIODA RUNS TO THE RING AND CALLS FOR THE BELL TO START THE MATCH.

$50,000 Challenge

PJ Cash vs. Perry Saturn

Saturn was all over Cash and after delivering a T-Bone suplex, he tried to slap on the "Rings of Saturn" but Cash got both feet to the ropes to earn a break. Saturn continued to pound Cash with right hands but after a knee to the stomach slowed him down, Cash grabbed Saturn and bounced his head off the top turnbuckle. Saturn looked a little out of condition and Cash made him pay by jumping up and grabbing him by the head, pulling him face first into the mat. Saturn got up swinging but he was hitting nothing but the air and Cash came out of nowhere with the "Cash Register". Cash covered Saturn and hooked the leg for the 3 count.

Match Time: 3:01

Cole: "And that's why you don't accept these challenges if you haven't competed in ten years! This sport has passed you by..... see ya, Saturn"!

JUST THEN, SHELTON BENJAMIN HIT THE RING TO A GOOD OVATION AND NAILED CASH WITH A CLOTHESLINE, CUTTING HIS CELEBRATION SHORT. CASH GOT UP BUT BENJAMIN CLOTHESLINED HIM AGAIN, TAKING HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE. CASH GRABBED HIS BRIEFCASE AND LOOKED UP AT BENJAMIN, HOLDING HIS HEAD. BENJAMIN MOUTHED THE WORDS "I WANT THE MONEY".

Cole: "What the heck is going on here"?

Hudson: "It seems to me that this challenge is drawing plenty of interest! PJ Cash may have gotten more than he bargained for"!

JUST THEN, "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN's MUSIC HITS AGAIN AND HE COMES OUT TO ANOTHER WILD CHEER. HE GIVES CASH A COLD STARE AS HE WALKS BY HIM AND GETS IN THE RING, ASKING FOR A MICROPHONE.

Cole: "Now what"?

Hudson: "Fans don't go away, the rattlesnake is out here again"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK........

A COMMERCIAL FOR T-MOBILE IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR FRONTIER AIRLINES.

RETURN FROM BREAK...... RINGSIDE.......

WHEN PRIMETIME RETURNS, STEVE AUSTIN IS STILL IN THE RING.

Steve Austin: "It seems we had a bit of a situation out here earlier so I want to call our brave Universal champion out to the ring.... so Corey, come on out".

AFTER A FEW MOMENTS PASS, COREY APPEARS ON THE STAGE WITH THE UNIVERSAL TITLE. THE FANS IMMEDIATELY BOO AT HIS SIGHT.

Hudson: "There's the champion, what's Austin got to say"?

Steve Austin: "It seems like you dodged yet another ass whippin', son. And now we have WrestleMania 12 comin' up and you're sittin' there holdin' that belt and yet there's no opponent lined up to challenge ya. So I came out here right now to drink another beer and fix that problem..... someone toss me a beer".

FROM OUTSIDE THE RING, A BEER IS THROWN TO AUSTIN. HE CATCHES IT AND CRACKS IT OPEN BUT BEFORE HE CAN TAKE A DRINK, TRAVIS WAKEMAN APPEARS ON THE TWF TRON.

Travis Wakeman: "Ya know, Steve, I know you think you make all the decisions around here, but I've already made this one. It seems we have three guys who all have some sort of issue with each other and I can't think of a better place to settle it than in Denver. So Corey, you will be defending the Universal title at WrestleMania in a triple threat match against both John Cena...... and M.X. Ogden"!

Cole: "How the hell is that fair?! One of the greatest champions of our time has to defend the title in a match he doesn't even have to be involved in the decision with to lose"!

Hudson: "This is a decision made by The Empire that I can finally get on board with! Great call"!

COREY SEEMS VERY UPSET ABOUT THE ANNOUNCEMENT AS HE STARES ACROSS THE ARENA AT AUSTIN.

Cole: "Well I'm sorry, I think it's complete B.S."!

Hudson: "We're out of time, folks, see you for TWF Main Event"!

OFF AIR......
