Lowell, Massachusetts
March 7, 2003
THE UPRISING LOGO POPS UP ON THE SCREEN AND IT's THEME MUSIC HITS AND THE TWF LIVEWIRE INN SIGN IS SHOWN OUTSIDE THE THEME RESTAURANT. THE CAMERAS GO INSIDE THE BUILDING AND SHOW AL SNOW AND THE HONKY TONK MAN STANDING ON THE STAGE IN FRONT OF COUNTLESS TWF FANS.
Al Snow: "It's that time again folks, it's Uprising! PrimeTime is gonna come to you live in just a bit so stay tuned but first, we've got some action of our own Honky"!
Honky Tonk Man: "I love this stuff! Every time we come here for Uprising, more and more of my fans come out! It's like Graceland"!
Snow: "Well I think it's far from Graceland but we don't have any time to sit up here and listen to you, let's go to the ring"!
Aries vs. "Universal" Al Laiman Laiman came out aggressively but Aries showed little evidence of being affected and won the match with a northern lights suplex. SMW Match: Lance Cade vs. Mark Jindrak These two youngsters put on a heck of an offensive display but after Jindrak missed with a flying clothesline from the apron, Cade caught him with a well executed superkick to win it. Tryout Match: Johnny Stamboli vs. Spencer Hollywood of SMW Hollywood knew there were scouts in the crowd for Stamboli, but he used it as an oppurtunity to put his skills on exhibit and he gave Stamboli a serious run for his money. But when he went for a cross body block, Stamboli showed a lot of power by catching him in mid air and throwing him to his shoulder before delivering the "Forget about it" to get the win. Jamal and Rosey vs. Evolution Jamal and Rosey met up with a team they have struggled with mightily in the past and Evolution again frustrated them with their speed and agility. But the match spilled to the floor where Jamal caught Nova with the throw up samoan drop and got back in the ring at the count of 9 as he and Rosey won it by a count out. Snow: "Tough break for Evolution. I believe they were gonna beat those guys again"! HTM: "Tag team wrestling just isn't what it used to be". Snow: "Well the TWF is changing that but what do you think of this Stamboli guy"? HTM: "He's a dumb italian, what more can I say"? Snow: "Well I've been impressed with some of his skills and I wouldn't be surprised to see him wind up with a contract. But up next folks is PrimeTime and what a show you're gonna see tonight as Drew Blood defends the Universal Title against Rhyno"! HTM: "Those two have a lot of history together and it seems to me like Drew Blood has gotten the better of him more times than not"! Snow: "Dylan Jansens also gets a chance to regain the Lightheavyweight gold! That's all next folks"! THE SCREEN FADES TO BLACK BEFORE THE TWF LOGO FLASHES BY AND THE PRIMETIME LOGO POPS UP. "RAP SUPERSTAR" BEGINS TO PLAY AS PRIMETIME's MONTAGE RUNS. FIREWORKS THEN RAVAGE THE LOWELL AUDITORIUM AS IT COMES INTO VIEW ALONG WITH THE SCREAMING SELLOUT CROWD. Michael Cole: "It's that time of week again fans, it's PrimeTime! Welcome to PrimeTime, I'm Michael Cole alongside Bobby "The Brain" Heenan and Brain, I looked at the lineup for tonight and I couldn't believe some of the matches we've got tonight"! A PROMO WITH THE PRIMETIME LOGO POPS UP WITH DREW BLOOD AND HIS UNIVERSAL TITLE ON ONE SIDE AND RHYNO ON THE OTHER. Heenan: "Oh you got that right Cole! Tonight, the sinister Drew Blood defends the Universal title against the crazed manbeast Rhyno"! ANOTHER PROMO PICTURE POPS UP WITH ROB VAN DAM ON ONE SIDE AND CHARLIE HAAS ON THE OTHER. Cole: "And not only that, but the number one contender for that Universal Title Rob Van Dam is here and he will face Charlie Haas, one on one"! THE PSYCH WARD's EVIL SOUNDING MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT TO LITTLE RESPONSE. Heenan: "And we're not wasting any time talking like some shows do, we're jumping right into the action"! Cole: "Also tonight Dylan Jansens tries to regain his Lightheavyweight title and Kurt Angle is scheduled to be here! But right now, this newcomer's got a fight on it's way"! BRADSHAW AND CHRIS TIRPAK's MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT WITH THEIR NEWLY WON TAG TEAM TITLES AROUND THEIR WAIST. Heenan: "Well I hope someone gets to these guys! They came out of nowhere to win those titles"! Cole: "Many considered it an upset when Tirpak and Bradshaw beat Chono and Muta at Code Red but after that match, it was the Psych Ward who handed out a whooping to the new champs"! Heenan: "I'll tell ya what Cole, Tirpak and Bradshaw might be mad and seeking revenge, but they better stay focused cause this rookie team will pick them apart"! Cole: "You may have a point Brain but this is a singles match and if it were up to me, Tirpak and Breakdown would be sent to the back"!
Crazy Shane w/ Breakdown vs. Bradshaw w/ Chris
Tirpak
This was an excellent battle pitting speed versus power and in the early going, Bradshaw had trouble
keeping up with Shane. After ducking a clothesline, Shane hit a flying calf kick followed by a flip over leg drop. He went for an irish whip but
Bradshaw reversed it. However, Shane exploded off the ropes with a flying back elbow. After driving the brunt of his knee into the lower back of the
big Texan, Shane rolled him over and locked in the sharpshooter. But close enough to the ropes, Bradshaw grabbed them seconds later to break the hold.
He then went to the top rope and attempted a high risk corkscrew body attack but Bradshaw saw him just in time and moved out of the way. Bradshaw then
poured on the offense with a hammer-knifedge chop combo in the corner. After wearing Shane out, he whipped him to the ropes and lifted him high into the
air with a back body drop before dropping a big elbow across his chest. He went for a lateral press but Shane kicked out at 2. Bradshaw complained to
referee Jack Doan but it was the nonchalant cover that was to blame. After delivering his patented fallaway slam, Bradshaw whipped him to the ropes and
Shane ducked a wild backhand but after he bounced off the other side, Bradshaw drilled him with a big boot to the face. Bradshaw seemed ready to
put on the finishing touches when he became enthralled in a brawl that had erupted outside the ring between Breakdown and Tirpak. He grabbed Breakdown
by the hair but caught a thumb to the eye and when he turned back to Shane, he was blasted with a high powered superkick that Shane took 2 and a half
steps into. Shane then locked in the sharpshooter again and this time, Bradshaw was forced to tap out.
Match Time: 7:51
Cole: "Bradshaw had no choice that time Brain, he was in the center of the ring"!
Heenan: "Oh it looks like it's about to get better"!
After the match, Tirpak and
Breakdown were still brawling when Shane came from behind for the double team. This allowed Breakdown to grab a steel chair which was nearby and wrap
it around Tirpak's head. The Psych Ward left the tag champs laying as their music came on.
Cole: "These two have created quite a stir with our new tag team champs Brain and you gotta believe they'll get theirs for this"!
Heenan: "Hey, who insinuated this? Bradshaw's the one who decided to welcome Shane to the TWF the way he did"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL.... SHANE's OFFICE..... SHANE IS SITTING AT HIS DESK WHEN THE DOOR SWINGS OPEN AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN ENTERS. Shane: "Look, if this is about the show, I'm not gonna play any games with you, I control PrimeTime now and forever". Travis Wakeman: "Shane, let's be civilized for once. The reason I came is to tell you that I have doubts that Rockwell is the one behind Trish's attack? I just have that feeling... that Shane: "Listen, that's great. But I saw him on tape. I'd like to believe he didn't do it but the truth of the matter is he did and as far as I'm concerned, he's not welcome back". COMMERCIAL BREAK..... A COMMERCIAL FOR LUGZ BOOTS IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK... SHANE's OFFICE.... SHANE IS IN HIS OFFICE WITH CHRIS BENOIT. Shane McMahon: "Well, you know what I mean. It's just that this Mr. Wrestling III is very suspicious to me and I would appreciate it if you could find out what he's hiding tonight". Chris Benoit: "I'll what I can do". JUST THEN, MATT HARDY ENTERS SHORTLY AFTER BENOIT LEAVES. Shane: "Come on Matt, I'm busy, what can I do for ya"? Matt Hardy: "Ya know Shane, when Kurt Angle signed with PrimeTime, I think I was as happy as you were. That's because I knew I could take first crack at him for showing me up a few weeks ago, isn't that right"? Shane: "You want Angle tonight? You got him". MATT HARDY SHAKES SHANE's HAND AS THANKS HIM BEFORE LEAVING. BACK AT RINGSIDE, HAYABUSA's MUSIC HITS AND JIM CORNETTE LEADS OUT THE BRAND NEW TWF LIGHTYHEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. Heenan: "Matt has challeneged Angle! How wise was that"? Cole: "That's hard to say Brain, we haven't seen Angle in a TWF ring in almost two years. But right now, Hayabusa could have one of the shortest Lightheavyweight champions in history cause he's gotta face an angry dragon"! A BLACK DRAGON APPEARS ON THE PRIMETRON AND BREATHES FIRE. INSIDE THE FIRE ARE THE WORDS "BEWARE..... THE DRAGON WILL ENFLAME YOU". "OVER MY HEAD" BY LIT THEN HITS AS DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT TO A BIG POP. Heenan: "Well I'll give credit where credit is due, Jansens was one of the better Lightheavyweight champions this company ever had"! Cole: "And let's not forget the fact that some unnamed ninja is the main reason the title isn't around his waist right now"! TWF Lightheavyweight Title Match
Challenger.... Dylan Jansens vs. Hayabusa w/ Jim Cornette
As Jansens was being introduced, he was blindsided from behind by Kid Gundam and he and Hayabusa did a number on the former champ until Rey Mysterio
rushed out to his aid. Mysterio and Gundam traded punches as Jansens began to work over Hayabusa. But Gundam was able to ram Mysterio face first into the steel set, incapacitating him. Suddenly, the black ninja lowered on a rope from the top of the set with a katana. He then struck Jansens in the back of the head
with the handle of the katana.
Cole: "What the hell is this? It's that
ninja again and I bet that's Jansens katana"!
Heenan: "Did you see where he came from? He just put Jansens' lights out"!
THE NINJA THEN REMOVED HIS MASK AND REVEALED HIMSELF
TO BE.... LOKI!
Heenan: "But why him? Why him"?
Cole: "Loki is a very dangerous
man! I have no clue why he did this"! BACKSTAGE... ARENA ENTRANCE.... TRAVIS WAKEMAN IS SHOWN PACING BACK AND FORTH BY THE ARENA ENTRANCE WHEN TRISH ARRIVES WEARING A PAIR OF BLACK LEATHER PANTS AND A WHITE SHIRT WHICH TIED AT THE BOTTOM ALONG WITH A PAIR OF BLACK SHADES. Wakeman: "Oh hey baby, I've been...... JUST THEN, TRISH VINDICTIVELY SLAPS THE TASTE RIGHT OUT OF HIS MOUTH AND WALKS RIGHT ON PAST. WAKEMAN CAN ONLY HOLD HIS JAW IN PAIN AND WATCH HER GO. BACK AT RINGSIDE, MR. WRESTLING IS SHOWN IN THE RING, HIS OLD 1980's ENTRANCE THEME PLAYING. Cole: "Wow, did you hear that"? Heenan: "Trish just let him have it and it looks like Trish may have finally come to her senses and realized how much better she could be doing"! Cole: "Now if I remember correctly, you used to be Wakeman's biggest fan and probably his only fan". Heenan: "....... "WHATEVER" BY OUR LADY PEACE HITS AND THE CROWD RISES TO IT's FEET AS CHRIS BENOIT COMES OUT TO A GREAT POP. Cole: "In any event, we're still shocked over the arrival of Loki, the man behind this big mystery over Dylan Jansens katana and what an evil look he had in his eyes Brain". Heenan: "There's just too many things going on at once. That's what makes this the most exciting wrestling program out there today". Cole: "Well this should be a very interesting match and remember what Shane said about Mr. Wrestling III, I find him a little strange myself"!
Chris Benoit vs. Mr. Wrestling III
This was a terrific match and one of the best
technical bouts in awhile. Mr. Wrestling stayed move for move with Chris Benoit and took control of the match after a hip toss takeover. He took that
into an armbar with a body scissor and wrenched Benoit's neck as well. But Benoit fought through the pain and worked it into a unique pin that got a
long 2 count. After a textbook snap suplex, he bounced off the ropes but caught a knee in the gut. Mr. Wrestling then dropped a big knee on his head
before whipping him to the ropes and hitting a big powerslam. He hooked the leg and got 1.....2....., but Benoit kicked out. The crowd was inspired by
the efforts of both men as Benoit used a nice go behind into a german suplex. But when he went for another, Mr. Wrestling went for a back elbow and decked
referee Tim White when Benoit ducked. But he was able to escape Benoit's clutches and catch him with a nice spinebuster before locking in a reverse
figure four leg lock. Benoit tried to withstand the pain but he had no choice but to tap out. Unfortunately for Mr. Wrestling, White was still down. Mr. Wrestling released the hold and went to help White to his feet but when he turned around, he threw an instinctive clothesline but Benoit caught his arm
and turned it into the Crossface. Mr. Wrestling tried everything to get to the ropes but Benoit applied more pressure and forced him to give up.
Match Time: 8:46
Cole: "A great , hard fought win for Benoit but you
gotta say that this mysterious Mr. Wrestling should be the winner Brain".
Heenan: "Maybe he should, but it was his fault the ref was down"!
Cole: "It's not Tim White's fault he was caught in the crossfire and look at this, Benoit is going for the mask"!
BENOIT TRIED TO TAKE THE MASK OFF MR. WRESTLING BUT HE WAS ABLE TO ROLL OUT OF THE RING AND RUN UP
THE RAMP.
Heenan: "He's doing what Shane asked"!
Cole: "Well this guy sure doesn't want anyone to know his identity, look at him go"! ARENA BASEMENT.... A CAMERA FOCUSES ON A BURNING CANDLE AND AS THE SHOT WIDENS, DREW BLOOD AND BATISTA COME INTO VIEW. Drew Blood: "The battle between me and them is growing more in my favor, but the next step of my plan must be carried out tonight, by you". Batista: "Yes sir". Drew Blood: "Soon, everything will become clear to them and by that time, they will realize that I don't need them and I never did". THE CAMERA THEN ZOOMS BACK IN ON THE CANDLE AND THE SCREEN FADES TO BLACK. COMMERCIAL BREAK.... A PROGRAMMING AD FOR FOX IS SHOWN WITH THEIR WEEKEND LINEUP. RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.... CHARLIE HAAS' MUSIC HITS RIGHT AS PRIMETIME RETURNS AND HE COMES OUT TO MOSTLY BOOS. Cole: "We're back on PrimeTime and the road to WrestleMania ia off to a frantic start Brain, I can't believe some of this"! Heenan: "And we're only getting warmed up tonight, we've still got that Universal Title match to come"! "ONE OF A KIND" BY BREAKING POINT HITS AND ROB VAN DAM COMES OUT TO THE BIGGEST POP OF THE NIGHT. Cole: "Well speaking of the Universal Title, this man will meet whoever is the champion at WrestleMania"! Heenan: "He's got a tough challenge in front of him tonight though Cole"! Cole: "You're right Brain, Charlie Haas is no slouch and what an oppurtunity for him to make an immediate impact here on PrimeTime against RVD"! Rob Van Dam vs. Charlie Haas As the bell sounded, the 2 men locked up and Haas took RVD into a hammerlock but RVD countered with a 1 armed snap mare followed by a spinning legdrop. But he bounced off the ropes looking for a cartwheel moonsault and Haas recovered and caught RVD around the waist and delivered a german suplex. Haas then went to a front face lock and really wore RVD down. Every time RVD tried to escape his clutches, Haas drobve his powerful legs and refused to let go. After an amature takedown, Haas went to the fujiwara armbar but RVD used his feet to kick his way loose. After ducking a clothesline, RVD put a pinkick right on the money and then hit the Rolling Thunder. He hooked the leg and got 1.....2...., but Haas was up. But RVD then delivered a vertical suplex with a float over to get another 2 count. RVD whipped Haas to the corner and charged in but caught a big foot to the face followed by a big clothesline. Haas then went to lock in the "Haas of Pain" but RVD had it scouted and scurried to the ropes. Referee Jim Korderas asked for a seperation and when RVD got up, he threw a kick only to have Haas catch it. But RVD baited him right into the step over heel kick and then he quickly went to the top rope as the crowd came to their feet before hitting the "5 Star Frogsplash". He seemingly knocked the wind out of himself on the move but rolled on top of Haas for the 3 count. Match Time: 6:02 Cole: "And RVD has picked up a momentum building win and he's ready Brain, he's ready to become Universal champion"! Heenan: "He might be, but here comes someonie who's got other ideas"! JUST THEN, BATISTA ENTERED THE RING BUT RVD SAW HIM AND CAUGHT HIM WITH A SERIES OF QUICK KICKS. HE THEN WENT FOR AN IRISH WHIP BUT BATISTA REVERSED IT AND CAUGHT HIM WITH A DEVASTATING SPINEBUSTER. HE FOLLOWED THAT UP WITH HIS SIT DOWN POWERBOMB AND RVD WAS IN IMMEDIATE PAIN AS HE GRABBED THE BACK OF HIS HEAD. Cole: "My God what impact! Ge this guy outta here"! Heenan: "There aren't gonna be any volunteers for that job Cole! This man will leave when he wants to"! Cole: "Well it's obvious that Drew Blood does not wanna face RVD at one hundred percent and he's gonna do whatever he can to make sure he doesn't"! Heenan: "That's nothing but a smart champions move Cole"! Cole: "Wait a minute, here comes Wakeman out". TRAVIS WAKEMAN ENTERS THE RING AND ASKS FOR THE HOUSE MIC. Heenan: "What's this about"? Travis Wakeman: "Trish, Trish, I know you're back there and you gotta believe me, I didn't write that note and I didn't have anything to do with it. Don't you see what's going on? I don't want Crystal, why can't you see that? You and I have been through too much and I need you to come out here. Whatever you want me to do... I will". Cole: "Wakeman's pouring his heart out Brain". Heenan: "This is a mistake, let her go". TRISH APPEARS TO A MIXED REACTION AND BEGINS TO WALK DOWN THE RAMP. Wakeman: "Trish please get that look off your face. You gotta believe me. There's no way I would do things like that. What do you.... Cole: "Hey wait a minute"! JUST THEN, BROCK LESNAR ENTERS THE RING FROM THE CROWD AND DRILLS WAKEMAN IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD. THAT LEADS TO THE "F5" AND BROCK THEN LUNGES AT TRISH, CHASING HER UP THE RAMP AS HIS MUSIC HIT. Cole: "Wakeman has been ambushed by Brock Lesnar and victimized by the F5"! Heenan: "I knew it was a mistake to come out here! When is Wakeman gonna forget about these women, they're holding his career back"! BACKSTAGE.... WITH HIS 1996 OLYMPIC GOLD MEDAL AROUND HIS NECK, KURT ANGLE IS SHOWN HEADING TOWARDS THE RING. Cole: "Up next, Kurt Angle battles the founder of Mattitude! Don't go away"! COMMERCIAL BREAK.... A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE DREAMCATCHER IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.... "LIVE FOR THE MOMENT" BY MONSTER MAGNET HITS AS THE HURRICANE AND MATT HARDY MAKE THEIR WAY OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT. Cole: "Well I gotta ask myself one question as we return here on PrimeTime. Is Matt Hardy crazy? He has volunteered to be the first opponent of Kurt Angle and after a long layoff and wrestling in a second rate company Brain, you know Angle's gonna be primed and ready". Heenan: "I love Angle but I respect what Matt is doing. He tried to welcome Kurt to PrimeTime at Code Red and Kurt wasn't real receptive to that"! KURT ANGLE's MUSIC HITS AND HIS PYRO EXPLODES BEHIND THE SET AS HE WALKS OUT A FEW STEPS BEFORE RAISING 2 ARMS IN THE AIR. HE RECEIVES A MIXED REACTION. Cole: "Insulting someone is a welcome? That's exactly what Matt did, claiming Kurt needed more of his "Mattributes". Heenan: "Well it's obvious that Kurt is one of the better athletes of our time but I think Matt is gonna hold his own here". Kurt Angle vs. Matt Hardy w/ The Hurricane
As soon as the bell sounded, Matt was all over Angle
like a cheap suit and he fed him a steady diet of hard right hands followed by a discus punch. After a scoop slam, Matt came off the middle rope with
his flying legdrop but Kurt caught his foot and locked in the Ankle lock. But The Hurricane grabbed Matt and pulled his hand to the bottom rope. Kurt
then caugt Matt with a full blown clothesline which started an offensive show from the Olympian. Angle was so fluid and crisp in his moves but after
putting his head down too early off an irish whip, Matt kicked him right in the face and caught him with a cactus clothesline. He picked Angle up and
delivered a vertical suplex before climbing to the middle rope again and this time, connected with his legdrop. He went for a cover but Angle powered out at 2. Matt then sent him for the ride and kicked him in the gut. He then hooked Angle up for the "Twist of Fate" but Angle countered it right into the "Angle Slam". He then "WOOOOOED" to the crowd and pulled down the straps on his ring attire before locking in the Ankle Lock and with nowhere to go, Matt tapped out.
Match Time: 6:50
Cole: "Kurt Angle is back in the TWF folks and if you weren't impressed by that display, something is wrong with you"!
Heenan: "He's as good an athlete I've ever watched! That was tremendous"!
Cole: "Wait a minute, The Hurricane's in there"!
ANGLE's CELEBRATION WAS CUT SHORT WHEN THE HURRICANE CAME IN AND SLAPPED HIS HAND
AROUND HIS THROAT, LOOKING FOR THE HURRI-CHOKE. BUT ANGLE SWATTED HIS ARM INTO THE AIR AND HIT HIM WITH THE "ANGLE SLAM" AS WELL AND HIS MUSIC HIT
AGAIN AS MOST OF THE FANS CHEERED.
Heenan: "What is The Hurricane thinking"!
Cole: "Well he was trying to help the man who refers to him as a sidekick"!
Heenan: "Some sidekick"! BACKSTAGE.... WAKEMAN's DRESSING ROOM... THE SCENE IMMEDIATELY CUTS TO TRAVIS WAKEMAN's DRESSING ROOM WHERE HE IS BEING CHECKED BY THE HEAD TRAINER. Wakeman: "I'll be alright". Head Trainer: "You sure, I'm just gonna be down the hall". Wakeman: "Okay doc". JUST THEN, CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL ENTERS AS THE TRAINER LEAVES. SHE KNEELS DOWN BY WAKEMAN AND PUTS HER HAND ON HIS FOREHEAD. Crystal Carmichael: "Hey Travis, are you ready to admit to yourself what your true feelings are"? WAKEMAN JUST LOOKS AT CARMICHAEL IN BEWILDERMENT AS THE SCENE SHIFTS BACK TO RINGSIDE. "END OF EVERYTHING" BY STEREOMUD IS PLAYING AND RAVEN AND KANYON ARE IN THE RING. RAVEN IS SITTING DOWN IN THE CORNER. Cole: "I can't understand how Wakeman can even think straight Brain"! Heenan: "Hey, he got himself into it. I don't feel sorry for him". "THE KINGS" BY RUN DMC HITS AS SEAN O'HAIRE AND CARNEY COME OUT TO A GOOD POP. Cole: "We've got tag team action coming up here as Raven Enterprises will take on the New Breed and is it just me Brain, or is the New Breed crumbling at the seams"? Heenan: "Well let's see, their leader attacked an innocent woman and Carney cares only for himself. The only guy who is working for the group is Sean O'haire so to answer your question, I'd have to say that yes, it is". Cole: "Well Carney and O'haire are gonna try and get on the same page here tonight and change things within but they've gotta face Raven and Kanyon and Raven has gotta be seething after his loss to Wakeman at Code Red"! Raven Enterprises vs. Carney and Sean O'haire Carney started things off with Kanyon and after Kanyon got the better of a tie, Carney moved out of the way of an elbow drop and caught Kanyon with a perfect dropkick. He then whipped him to the corner and came flying in with a cross body attack but O'haire tagged himself in. He and Kanyon exchanged holds on the mat and after catching Kanyon with an inverted atomic drop and a clothesline, O'haire tagged Carney back in. But Kanyon used a drop toe hold and tagged in Raven who came in and dropped a knee right on the back of his head. He then whipped him to the corner and hit his clothesline-bulldog combo before putting the boots to his chest. Raven tagged Kanyon back in and Kanyon delivered a gutbuster from his shoulders. He then whipped him to the ropes but Carney ducked a clothesline and caught him with a flying forearm. He went to his corner for the tag but O'haire was down on the floor arguing with a group of fans in the front row. Kanyon then hit Carney with a backdrop suplex before tagging in Raven who came in and climbed to the top rope. He then put his knee on the back of Carney's head and rode him face first into the mat. Carney was completely out of it and Raven pulled him up and delivered the "Raven Effect". But he chose not to cover him and tagged in Kanyon who hit the "Flatliner" and nonchalantly laid across him for the win. Match Time: 8:32 AS THE BELL SOUNDED, SEAN O'HAIRE LOOKED AT CARNEY WITH A LOOK OF DISGUST AND JUST WALKED AWAY AS "END OF EVERYTHING" PLAYED AGAIN. Cole: "Are you kidding me? What is O'haire doing"? Heenan: "He's sick and I can't blame him! That performance was pathetic"! Cole: "The last time I checked this was a damn tag team match! O'haire did nothing to help Carney there and he let Raven and Kanyon pick him apart"! BACKSTAGE.... WAKEMAN's DRESSING ROOM... CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL IS STILL IN WAKEMAN's ROOM, OBVIOUSLY BEING FLIRTATIOUS WITH HIM WHEN TRISH COMES IN. THE SIGHT OF CARMICHAEL SHOWS A SIDE OF TRISH NEVER BEFORE SEEN AND SHE GOES AFTER HER. AFTER TACKLING CRYSTAL, SHE HITS HER IN THE HEAD 3 TIMES BEFORE CRYSTAL REVERSES IT AND GETS IN A FEW SHOTS OF HER OWN. FINALLY, 4 MEMBERS OF ARENA SECURITY RUSH IN AND PULL THE WOMEN APART. TRISH LOOKS AT WAKEMAN. Trish: "You need to prove, prove what you say"! Wakeman: "Trish....... SECURITY TAKES THE WOMEN IS OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS AS PRIMETIME GOES TO BREAK...... COMMERCIAL BREAK..... A COMMERCIAL FOR 1-800-COLLECT IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE.... AFTER FINISHING HIS POST MATCH SHOWER, KURT ANGLE IS WALKING DOWN THE HALL TO THE ARENA EXIT WHEN HE FINDS A MASK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLOOR WITH A QUESTION MARK ON THE FACE OT IT. IT IS THAT OF MR. WRESTLING III. Kurt Angle: (to himself) "Oh Shane's gonna love this". ANGLE PUTS THE MASK INTO HIS BAG AND WALKS ON BEFORE THE SCENE GOES TO RINGSIDE. RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A BIG POP. Cole: "Here comes the challenger and what an oppurtunity for the manbeast Brain! He's been waiting a long time for this"! Heenan: "Well Al Snow of all people made a good point on PrimeTime. These two have had a lot of confrontations in the past and it's been Drew Blood who's come out on top more often"! THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND THE IMAGE OF DRIPPING BLOOD IS SHOWN FROM THE PRIMETRON AS DREW BLOOD's MUSIC HITS AND HE SLOWLY APPEARS WEARING A BLACK CLOAK. Cole: "They have had many battles Brain, but none of this magnitude. And look at Rhyno, he's not wasting any time"! RHYNO LEFT THE RING AND CHARGED UP THE RAMP "GORING" BLOOD AS THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. HE THEN RIPPED HIS CLOAK OFF AND THE UNIVERSAL TITLE WHICH WAS UNDERNEATH. HE THEN STARTED PUNCHING AWAY AT THE CHAMPION WHEN BATISTA EMERGED FROM THE BACK AND PICKED UP THE BELT. RHYNO SENSED SOMETHING BEHIND HIM AND HE GOT UP BUT WHEN HE TURNED AROUND HE WAS DRILLED IN THE HEAD WITH THE BELT. BATISTA THEN DELIVERED HIS SPINEBUSTER RIGHT ON THE RAMP AS DREW BLOOD RECOVERED. HE ASKED BATISTA TO PICK HIM UP AND WHEN HE DID, DREW PLANTED RHYNO WITH THE "BLOODBATH" RIGHT ON THE STEEL. RHYNO WAS OUT BUT TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY, BATISTA GRABBED HIM AND LAUNCHED HIM 12 FEET OFF THE TOP OF THE STAGE, CRASHING THROUGH A SET OF WOODEN TABLES ON THE FLOOR BELOW. Cole: "My God! What is the meaning of this"?! Heenan: "It's another smart champions move Cole, can't you see that"! Cole: "This isn't smart! This is evil and for claiming to not need anyone, the Universal champion sure depends on Batista for a lot"! Heenan: "Why should he do all the dirty work himself Cole? He's the Universal champ"! DREW BLOOD AND BATISTA WERE SHOWN LOOKING DOWN AT THE FALLEN MANBEAST AS THE CROWD LOULDY BOOED. Cole: "Well if RVD has anything to say about it, he won't call himself that for long"! OFF AIR......
