UPRISING's THEME MUSIC HITS AND AL SNOW AND THE HONKY TONK MAN ARE SHOWN SITTING AMIDST THE CROWD WHICH IS FAR FROM FULL TO THIS POINT. Al Snow: "Hello fans and welcome to Uprising as we set the table for PrimeTime tonight. There are still thousands of fans at the merchandise stands and filing into the building tonight but Honky, it's gonna be a big night in here". Honky Tonk Man: "Well I can't wait Snow because Brock Lesnar has issued one of the boldest challenges in TWF history, giving both Val Venis and Rob Van Dam a shot at the Universal title, saying he'll beat them both in succession"! Snow: "That's right folks, you heard that right! RVD and Val Venis defeated Lesnar and Batista last week and Lesnar didn't take it lightly and if ya look up, there's a steel cage up there Honky"! HTM: "Yes there is and that's because Lesnar has also asked for this to take place inside a steel cgae, saying he'll first defeat Venis and then RVD"! Snow: "Well it is a brave challenge and the Universal title will be on the line to boot! But before we get to the action here on Uprising, let's show you something that took place just about fifteen minutes ago"! MOMENTS AGO..... RAVEN RUNS INTO SEAN O'HAIRE AND KANYON WHO ARE BOTH IN A GOOD MOOD, LAUGHING AND CARRYING ON. Raven: "Settle down men. For you have nothing to be proud of. I said, you two could not win the tag team titles without me and what did you do? You chose to fly without the Raven. Well look where it got you! I want you two to get serious and watch my match tonight. You watch my focus, you watch my calculated, precise attack and you take good mental notes. I want you both to come to me and say, Raven, we see it". RAVEN WALKS AWAY. HTM: "Raven faces Bradshaw right here on Uprising and I hope those two are paying careful attention"! The Hurricane vs. Carly Colon (invitee) Even though the crowd was not familiar with Colon, they were impressed with his technique. But The Hurricane hit a somersault powerbomb off the top rope followed by a flying neckbreaker to get the 3 count. SMW Match: The Patriot vs. "The Real Deal" Damian Steele Scouts in attendance were there to see The Patriot but quickly took a liking to the up and coming Steele. After a great match, Steele averted the Atomic Bomb and hit the "SteeleHammer" to get the victory. The Beast w/ The 13th Apostle vs. Pierre Oulette A few hardcore fans recognized Oulette from his days as one of the Quebecers and he gave the Beast a serious fight. the match quickly turned into a brawl and after a cactus clothesline, Oulette went to the top rope for his Cannonball but The Beast moved. He then hit "Vengeance" out of nowhere for the 1.....2.....3. Raven vs. Bradshaw w/ Chris Tirpak Raven used every cheap tactic in the book, despite complaints from Tirpak. But after blocking the "Raven Effect", Bradshaw ran Raven over with a shoulder block. He then bounced off the ropes but Raven caught him with a drop toe hold. He then grabbed Tirpak's tag team belt and sized Bradshaw up but Tirpak got on the apron and grabbed the title. A struggle began and when Raven turned back around, Bradshaw pasted him with the "Clothesline from Hell" to get the 1.....2.....3. Snow: "It looks like that plan backfired! Did ya take good notes Kanyon, O'haire"? HTM: "That wasn't supposed to happen! Bradshaw should've been DQ'ed because of Tirpak"! Snow: "Oh please, you know no one buys that! But folks, what you should buy is the fact that PrimeTime is gonna be one hell of a show so keep it right here on FOX and hold onto your seats"! THE SCREEN FADES TO BLACK AND THE FOX LOGO IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY THE GLOWING ORANGE PRIMETIME LOGO.
"RAP SUPERSTAR" IS HEARD AS PRIMETIME's MONTAGE COMES ON, SETTING UP THE ORANGE FIREWORK AND PYRO DISPLAY INSIDE THE DEAFENING ARENA. "619" HITS AND REY MYSTERIO POPS UP FROM UNDER THE RAMP TO A HUGE POP. Michael Cole: "This is PrimeTime and fans, we're startin' things off Four Elements style"! Jesse Ventura: "The people here on the east coast love this guy just like they do on the west but he's taking on a guy who's made a name for himself here but all over the world as well"! LOKI's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MIXED RESPONSE. Cole: "Love him or hate him, you gotta respect this guy's abilities and I can't wait for this one Jesse"! Ventura: "These two have had a couple run ins here on PrimeTime and tonight we're gonna find out who the better man is"! Rey Mysterio vs. Loki Wow, what a match! Don't be surprised to see this win match of the month as the crowd was capitivated for almost 10 minutes of non-stop action. After an initial feeling out process, Loki locked in a side headlock but Rey backed him to the ropes and sent him in. He went down for a monkey flip but an alert Loki stomped right on his face. Loki then went to the body of Mysterio with some stiff kicks before sending him into the corner so hard that he landed face first on the mat. Loki moved in and pulled Rey up but after slipping out of a vertical suplex, Rey dropkicked Loki in the back and he landed in the ropes. Rey went for the 619 but Loki had it scouted and ducked before catching him with a spin kick to the head. Loki made the cover but, too close to the ropes, Rey got his foot on the bottom one to break the count. Loki then set Rey on the top rope and went to the opposite corner. But when he charged in, Rey came flying off with a senton bomb, sitting right on his chest. Rey then went to the ring ropes to "drop the dime" but again, Loki saw it coming and moved out of the way before hitting a wicked backbreaker from a chokehold position. Loki made the cover but Rey was up at 2. Loki then whipped him to the ropes but he ducked a clothesline and hit him with a hurricanrana. Rey got a 2 count but Loki countered it into a roll up of his own to get a 2 count. Loki hit a northern lights suplex but after a 2 count, Rey impressively bridged up into a backslide for another 2 count. Rey then bounced off the ropes but Loki swatted away his front dropkick. Loki then went out and grabbed a steel chair when Carney ran out. Carney got on the apron and took the chair as Rey came from behind with a 2 handed facebuster. He then set Loki up on the middle rope and hit the 619 before going to the apron and calling for the "West Coast Pop" as the crowd came to their feet. But after jumping off, Loki caught him in mid air with a devastating jumping roundhouse to the side of the head and made the cover for the 3 count. Match Time: 9:23 AS LOKI EXITED THE RING, CARNEY CAME IN TO CHECK ON HIS PARTNER. Cole: "I'm breathless folks! That was amazing"! Ventura: "And Loki has proven to be the better man"! Cole: "We all know that was anyone's match to win Jesse and out of one hundred matches, they'd each win fifty! Tonight was Loki's night"! BACKSTAGE..... JUST BEFORE PRIMETIME TAKES A BREAK, CONFUSED OFFICIALS SURROUND BOTH THE BEAST AND THE 13th APOSTLE, WHO HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN ATTACKED.

Cole: "Welcome back to PrimeTime and listen to the crowd here in Buffalo show their appreciation for Dylan Jansens"! Ventura: "It's pity Cole! They all feel for this guy cause of his hard times". Cole: "I disagree, he's one of the most respected men here on PrimeTime and he likes to settle things where they should be... in the ring"! Dylan Jansens: "I don't wanna come out here and take up time for the great athletes here on PrimeTime to work their magic in the ring, but I wanted to publicly thank one individual. Crazy Shane, if you could come out please". "DU HAST" BY RAMMSTEIN HITS AND CRAZY SHANE COMES OUT TO A FAVORABLE REACTION. Ventura: "Oh what is this about"? Cole: "Uh, I got a pretty good idea". Jansens: "Shane, I wanted to take this oppurtunity to say thank you for getting my bracelet back, you don't know what it means to me". Crazy Shane: "Hey, it was..... JUST THEN, THEY ARE INTERRUPTED. MATT HARDY AND JAMIE NOBLE COME OUT. Matt Hardy: "Oh hell no! Save that crap for Maury Povich! This is the TWF and what this should really be about is Mattitude. Jansens, I blame you directly for the era of Mattitude not getting off to a quicker start. If you remember, you got a couple lucky wins over me, one for the Lightheavyweight title. But no matter, Jamie Noble and I..... CRAZY SHANE CUTS IN. Crazy Shane: "Hey Matt, over here. Remember me? A couple weeks ago, when you still had the IC title, I pinned your ass one, two, three"! Cole: "Whoa"! Crazy Shane: "What'd that do to Mattitude"? Matt Hardy: "Mattitude is not a believer in flukes and that, was definitely a fluke"! Crazy Shane: "Okay, why don't you and Jamie Noble, go back and take off those ridiculous shirts and get ready for a match, a match against Dylan and I"! THE CROWD CHEERS. Cole: "Hey, I like that idea"! Jamie Noble: "You're on boy"! "DU HAST" BY RAMMSTEIN PLAYS AGAIN AS MATTITUDE WALKS AWAY. Cole: "So there ya have it, Matt Hardy and his brand new Mf'er Jamie Noble will take on Crazy Shane and Dylan Jansens of the Four Elements"! Ventura: "Oh but here's the one I wanna see Cole... Brock Lesnar's double challenge"! A PROMO GRAPHIC IS SHOWN WITH THE PRIMETIME LOGO FOR THAT MATCH. Cole: "That's right folks, Brock Lesnar has given out a challenge to two men for the Universal title, saying he'll beat RVD and Val Venis consecutively, in a steel cage"! THE CAGE IS SHOWN HANGING ABOVE THE RING. Ventura: "Oh that's gonna be great"! BLUE SKIES ARE SHOWN WITH ROLLING WHITE CLOUDS BEFORE THE CAMERA FOCUSES ON THE BACK OF A BALD HEAD. Christopher Daniels: "The TWF prides itself around the tradition of wrestling but what they don't realize is that the future of sports entertainment takes a back seat to that tradition and as a result, many suffer. Tradition must be taken out and something, something must be done for the better. That is the gospel.... according to the Fallen Angel. COMING SOON TO SAVE YOUR SOUL..... SAY YOUR PRAYERS. BACK TO LIVE ACTION, THE FBI IS SHOWN COMING DOWN THE AISLE TO A LOT OF HEAT AS THE CAMERA SHOWS SMW STAR LANCE CADE IN THE RING. Cole: "The Fallen Angel Chris Daniels is on his way to PrimeTime folks but right now, Lance Cade of SMW has a big oppurtunity to shine"! Ventura: "We know that anyone gets a chance on PrimeTime Cole, that's what makes it so great! Frankie Kazarian is a product of SMW and he's gonna see what this kid's got"! Cole: "Well Cade is no slouch. He was trained by Shawn Michaels and has been touted as the next Barry Windham! But he's gotta keep his eyes on Maritato and Stamboli"! Frankie "The Future" Kazarian w/ The FBI vs. Lance Cade of SMW After a collar and elbow tie up, Cade shrugged Kazarian to the floor. But he missed with a clothesline and after peppering him with some jabs, Kazarian whipped him to the corner. He charged in but there was nobody home and Cade hit a nice bulldog. When Kazarian got up, he caught him with a gorgeous dropkick that knocked him out of the ring. Stamboli and Maritato came to Kazarian's aid and tried to come up with a plan. Soon, referee Jim Korderas was having trouble keeping track of the FBI and as Maritato kept him busy, Stamboli drilled Cade with a right hand. Kazarian continued to use his allies to his advantage but Cade would not go away, catching him with a belly to belly suplex. Off an irish whip, he went for a clothesline but Kazarian avoided it and hit an immediate reverse facebuster to the knee followed by a well placed superkick. He then waited for Cade to get up and when he did, he delivered the "Wave of the Future" for the 3 count. Match Time: 6:11 Cole: "A great effort from Lance Cade but it was not to be and Kazarian has put together a nice little streak Jesse"! MARITATO AND STAMBOLI HAD JOINED KAZARIAN AT THIS POINT, TRIPLE TEAMING CADE UNTIL OTHER REFEREE's CAME OUT AND ORDERED THEM TO THE BACK. Ventura: "I told ya, joining the FBI was the best choice he ever made"! Cole: "They draw success from their strength in numbers and I'm sure they'll use the same strategy later when Johnny the Bull takes on the Ultimo Dragon"! BACKSTAGE.... CAMERAS SHOW ROB VAN DAM IN HIS DRESSING ROOM DOING THE SPLITS ON TWO OPEN FOLDING CHAIRS WHEN VAL VENIS ENTERS. Val Venis: "Hey Rob, what's up"? Rob Van Dam: "Not much man, just gettin' ready". Venis: "Well I came to tell ya man, I pinned Lesnar last week and I'm going into that cage first. If I come out with the title, you get the first shot". RVD GETS OFF THE CHAIRS. RVD: "Dude, that's cool with me". THE TWO SHAKE AND THE SCENE SHIFTS TO THE RING WHERE ARIES IS SHOWN IN FULL RIOT GEAR. Cole: "Spare us, we've got Aries out here, calm down Jesse". Ventura: "This punk says anything.... Cole: "It's not worth your job". Aries: "Why all the protective gear? Because I know the retalitory feelings you Americans get in your distorted minds. Especially after watching two of your heroes, Angle and Ventura, go down. But tonight, I didn't come here to declare war on any of you. I came out here to make a plea, a plea to the U.S. government. I just hope that you have taken notice to what's going on in the world today. I hope you have taken to heart the serious mistakes you have made and I hope that it is in your plans to change the negative image that surrounds you. But..... Cole: "Wait a minute, look at the Prime Tron"! THE CROWD GOES WILD WHEN THEY SEE KURT ANGLE ON THE VIDEO WALL, DRESSED IN RED, WHITE AND BLUE, INCLUDING AN UNCLE SAM TOP HAT. Kurt Angle: "Negative image? The only negative thing is that this country let's anyone, including idiots like you, come in here and say what they want! Well not anymore, not here anyway! Aries, I will make it my mission to make sure that this crap stops! So if you got the balls, I want another shot at you! Right there next week, in a no holds barred street fight"! Ventura: "Whoa"! Aries: "Just like a typical American, letting his mouth get him into trouble. Angle, you've got it. Just make sure Shane McMahon signs a release form, so I am not responsible for what I do to you"! ARIES' MUSIC HITS AND HE STARES AT ANGLE ON THE PRIME TRON. Cole: "Oh that's gonna be huge Jesse! A rematch from Payback next week on PrimeTime"! Ventura: "It might be a few weeks late but Angle is gonna get payback, American style"! PRIOR TO COMMERCIAL... BACKSTAGE.....

Idalis: "Excuse me Jordan, can I get your comments on what Rick Martel did to you a few weeks ago"?
Rockwell keeps walking.
Rockwell then stops in his tracks and turns back around and gets face to face with Idalis before turning and getting right in front of the camera.
Jordan Rockwell: "You wanna talk about making a blemish? And then you think it means something to shave my hair? ( he pulls off his hat revealing his shaved head which suprisingly a lot of the female fans liked.) Well Model, tonight this pretty boy is gonna make a blemish on you"!
Rockwell then walks past Idalis when he is met by his partner Rhyno. The two then give each other a look and walk away together.

AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, "3 MINUTES" BY 2 SKINNY J's IS PLAYING AND JAMAL AND ROSEY ARE ON THEIR WAY DOWN THE RAMP WITH RICK MARTEL AND NIDIA. Cole: "We're back on PrimeTime folks and here comes Rock Martel and his entourage as I like to call them and Jesse, if I were the ref, I'd send at least one of those two to the back"! Ventura: "Well that's why you're sitting at this table Cole because the ref is allowing them both out here"! NOVA's MUSIC HITS AND HE AND ESSA RIOS COME OUT TOGETHER TO A STRONG REACTION. Cole: "Well as if facing two four hundred pounders wasn't enough, these two guys have a huge challenge with those two to worry about"! Ventura: "I wonder if Nova has taught Essa Rios how to say landslide in english"! Jamal and Rosey w/ Rick Martel and Nidia vs. Essa Rios and Nova Physically overmatched, Rios and Nova took a heck of a beating. Nova started things off with Rosey and after running into a nice wheel kick, Nova was lifted into the air with a back body drop. Rosey then dropped a leg across the throat of Nova before tagging in Jamal. They whipped Nova into the corner and then after being swung by Rosey for momentum, Jamal crashed into him with an avalanche. Jamal then delivered a scoop slam and went for a big elbow drop but Nova moved out of the way. After catching Jamal with a flying forearm that rocked him back, he tagged in Rios and they dropped him with a double dropkick. Rosey came in but Rios ducked a clothesline and caught him with a back heel kick. But Jamal came from behind with a hard forearm and then dropped Rios with a superkick before he and Rosey launched Nova out of the ring. Rios and Nova took a lot of punishment but they showed their heart and would not go away, despite 3 near falls. But suddenly, Rios hit Jamal with a dropkick to the knee followed by a spin around facebuster before catching Rosey with a dropkick that knocked him to the floor. He then tagged in Nova and they each got on opposite turnbuckles and came off at the same time, Nova connecting with a guillotine legdrop and Rios a fist drop. Nova had the cover but Martel was on the apron, preventing a count from referee Jack Doan. Suddenly, the crowd went nuts when Jordan Rockwell and Rhyno came running out. Rockwell pulled Martel to the floor and drilled him with a right hand. Rosey came over but Rockwell met him with a back elbow. Amidst all the confusion, Rhyno was set up for the "Gore" in the ring and when Jamal got up, he ran him over with it. Nova then rolled onto him as Doan turned to count the 1.....2.....3. Match Time: 13:22 Cole: "Oh what a match! Nova and Rios have overcome the odds to get the win"! Ventura: "Are you kidding? You were worried about Martel and Nidia and those two clowns got involved"! AFTER THE MATCH, THE FIGHT CONTINUED BUT WITH THE HELP OF RIOS AND NOVA, ROCKWELL AND RHYNO WERE ABLE TO INCAPACITATE THE OTHERS. MARTEL COWERED IN THE CORNER, BEGGING FOR MERCY AS ROCKWELL STALKED HIM. RHYNO HELD NIDIA BACK AS ROCKWELL APPROACHED WITH A MIC. Jordan Rockwell: "Is my head funny to you Martel? Well it doesn't seem to be a problem with the fans! THE FANS CHEER LOUDLY. But I'll tell ya what is funny! Oh yeah, I had a hidden camera placed in your dressing room, take a look". Ventura: "What"?!

Ventura: "This is a disgrace Cole and I think we should go to commercial now"! Cole: (laughing) "Without a doubt, one of the most unforgettable moments in the history of PrimeTime"!

Cole: "Dylan Jansens' regular partner Chris Benoit is not here tonight due to an emergency in his family but here's fact for ya Jesse, Matt and Noble have never teamed together either! In fact last year at TWF Meltdown, they met for the Lightheavyweight title"! Ventura: "Matt knows what kind of potential Noble carries especially after having faced him in the ring and they will get off to a good start tonight"! Mattitude vs. Dylan Jansens and Crazy Shane Jansens started the match with Noble and off a collar and elbow tie up, Noble locked in an armbar. But Jansens swept his feet out and whipped him to the ropes, catching him with a hip toss. He then tagged in Shane and showing come nice teamwork, they whipped him in and hit a double back elbow. Shane stayed on Noble with a snap suplex followed by a running senton bomb. He went for the cover but Matt came in to stop the count.

Jansens made the cover but Matt stopped the count at 2. Referee Charles Robinson took Matt to his corner as Jansens hit a swinging neckbreaker.

GUIDO AND FRANKIE KAZARIAN GOT IN LOOKING TO JUMP THE DRAGON BUT HE QUICKLY ESCAPED TO THIER CHAGRIN AND THE ROAR OF THE CROWD.

Muta pulled him up and threw a nasty knifedge chop. But that lit a fire inside Wakeman who flung Muta into the corner and blasted him with several right hands before whipping him to the corner so hard he flipped over and out to the floor. But Wakeman didn't allow him to regroup. He went outside with him and whipped him into the ring steps. He then turned and hit Chono with a right hand. Muta had rolled back into the ring and when Wakeman got in, he kicked him sharply in the ribs. Muta then dug his fingers into Wakeman's eyes, gouging them hard. He then picked him up and twisted his arm before headbutting it. After a dragon arm whip, Muta tried to lock in a fujiwara armbar but Wakeman countered it and escaped. He threw a clothesline but Muta ducked and bounced off the ropes only to run right into a sleeper hold. Muta was fading fast but countered with a sit down jawbreaker before kicking Wakeman right across the head. He covered him but only got a 2 count. Muta was relentless but Wakemak took it. He finally caught Muta's leg and pushed him to the mat before locking in the Sharpshooter. Muta was in a bad spot but Chono jumped up on the apron. Wakeman relinquished the hold and clobbered him with a right hand. Muta got up and threw a kick but Wakeman blocked it and hit the "Royal Flush" out of nowhere. But when he turned around, he noticed a struggle going on between Chono and Trish. But suddenly, The Beast came out and drilled Chono with a spear into the ring barricade which the crowd couldn't believe. Being able to refocus, Wakeman ducked a spin kick and dropped Muta with the "Ace in the Hole" out of nowhere to get the 3 count. THE BEAST THEN WENT AND GRABBED THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE AND BROUGHT IT INTO THE RING, HANDING IT TO WAKEMAN AS "MAKE WAY" HIT. Cole: "New Japan met their match tonight and Jesse, it's obvious that they are the ones who attacked The Beast earlier tonight"! Ventura: "The Beast is unstable Michael! This guy is a nut!

Val then ran him into the opposite ropes with a kneelift before hitting a textbook russian leg sweep followed by a running knee drop. He went for the cover but Lesnar was easily up. Venis then tried to run Lesnar into the cage but Brock blocked it with his foot and rammed him into the cage. He then lifted Val onto his shoulders for the "F5" but he slipped off and kicked him in the gut. Val tried to deliver a fisherman suplex but couldn't get him up and Brock countered it right into the "F5". He hooked Venis' legs and got the 3 count. Match Time: 6:08 Ventura: "One down, one to go"! Cole: "Impressively, Lesnar has put Venis away with the F5"! "ONE OF A KIND" BY BREAKING POINT HIT AND THE CROWD CAME TO THEIR FEET AS ROB VAN DAM CAME OUT. Ventura: "Come meet your fate RVD". Cole: "Could we be looking at the next Universal champion! What an oppurtunity for RVD right here in Buffalo"! Steel Cage/TWF Universal Title Match Challenger.... Rob Van Dam vs. Brock Lesnar RVD got in and came right at Lesnar, trying to exploit the fact he wasn't as fresh. After ducking a clothesline, RVD softened him up with 4 kicks to the body before hitting a spin kick to the jaw. That led to a standing moonsault which drew a 2 count. RVD then whipped him to the corner and charged in with a shoulder block. He backflipped and went for a diving shoulder but Brock got a knee up in his face followed by a devastating clothesline. Brock began laughing as he pounded away at the challenger. After a delay suplex that kept RVD in the air for 18 seconds, Brock delivered a running powerslam. He hooked the leg but the resilient RVD kicked out at 2. Brock then positioned him for a powerbomb but when he brought him up, RVD countered with a hurricanrana followed by the Rolling Thunder. RVD had Brock flustered and he took advantage with precise strikes with his feet. Finally Brock caught his foot but RVD baited him right into his step over heel kick before going to the top rope. Suddenly, Batista came out from under the ring and nailed RVD across the back with a steel chair. Lesnar regained his footing and picked RVD up, dropping him with the "F5". He hooked the leg and got the 1......2......3. Match Time: 7:08 Cole: "What the hell"? Ventura: "What'd I tell ya Cole? You shouldn't be surprised"! Cole: "No, I'm referring to the fact that Batista helped Lesnar hang onto the title"! BATISTA DROPPED THE CHAIR AND CAME INTO THE RING. AFTER A BRIEF STAREDOWN, THEY SHOOK HANDS. Ventura: "Look at that"! Cole: "This can't be good! Brock Lesnar and Batista are together? What does this mean"? OFF AIR......
