Jesse Ventura: "These people are going mad Cole! PrimeTime is sweeping the nation"!

A PROMO GRAPHIC WITH THE PRIMETIME LOGO POPS UP. CHRIS BENOIT IS ON ONE SIDE AND CHARLIE HAAS AND TED DIBIASE ARE ON THE OTHER.

Cole: "I think they wanna see Chris Benoit take the number one contendership from the man who literally bought it"!

Ventura: "That's gonna be a lot easier said than done Cole"!

ANOTHER GRAPHIC POPS UP WITH RICK MARTEL AND NIDIA ON ONE SIDE AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN AND TRISH STRATUS ON THE OTHER.

Cole: "Well here's some good news.... there's no Fashion Show tonight! That's because Rick Martel will be involved in this mixed gender tag team match"!

RANDY ORTON's THEME BY MOTORHEAD HITS AND HE COMES OUT WITH RIC FLAIR AS THE CROWD IMMEDIATELY STARTS TO BOO.

Ventura: "That's a good thing? Maybe for someone who has no fashion sense like yourself".

AS ORTON TAUNTS THE ROWDY CROWD, PAUL LONDON's MUSIC HITS AND HE CHARGES DOWN THE RAMP.

Cole: "Oh and you do with that purple boa? Come on"!

Ventura: "Just call the match Cole.... we've got a massacre ready to happen".

Cole: "Well if you're insinuating that Randy Orton is gonna walk all over Paul London, you better think again! Paul London is one of the top up and coming superstars on PrimeTime"!

Ventura: "I'll give him some credit Cole, he has a bright future ahead of him. But the future has been bright for Randy Orton since his birth"!

Randy Orton w/ Ric Flair vs. Paul London

As the bell sounded, thw two locked up and Orton tried a fireman's carry but London somehow landed on his feet and caught Orton with the dropsault. He then pulled him up and whipped him to the ropes but missed with a clothesline and after stopping his movement, Orton nailed him with a ridiculously nice dropkick. He pulled him up and delivered 3 stiff european uppercuts before whipping him to the ropes. He scooped him up and spun around, slamming him to the mat. Orton then climbed the ropes and raised his fingers, looking for his cross body block. But London recovered and instinctively fell into the ring ropes which knocked Orton to a straddling position. London then ran at him and brought him down with a hurracanrana, a move the fans loved and were bewildered by at the same time. He topped him but Orton kicked out at 2 as Flair yelled "get out". London tried to follow up but after reversing an irish whip right into a kneelift, Orton got in position and hit the "RKO" to get the 1.....2......3.

Match Time: 5:10

RIC FLAIR CAME INTO THE RING AND RAISED ORTON's ARM AS HIS MUSIC PLAYED.

Ventura: "You talk about top up and coming stars Cole.... look no further than Randy Orton".

Cole: "Ya gotta give the devil his due, he is good. But someone's gonna come along and take offense to his cocky attitude and we'll see how he handles that".

Ventura: "He's got nothing to worry about with the legendary Ric Flair in his corner. It's like Lebron James being trained by Michael Jordan Michael, there's no stopping these two".

BACKSTAGE......

THE CAMERAS GO INTO THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE NIDIA AND RICK MARTEL ARE PREPARING FOR THEIR MATCH.

Rick Martel: "You know what Nidia, if that fossil Hogan can do it, why can't I? I should be going to WrestleMania. I can beat Wakeman".

Nidia: "I don't have any doubt".

Martel: "These people forget.... not only am I a model, I'm also as accomplished a wrestler as any of these guys. Tonight, I'm gonna prove it".

Nidia: (massaging his shoulders from behind) "And I'm gonna make sure Trish is out of the way so that you can".

BOTH NIDIA AND MARTEL SMILE AS THE CAMERA MOVES IN AND THE SHOT FADES OUT.

A COMMERCIAL FOR STATE FARM INSURANCE IS SHOWN.

RETURN FROM BREAK..... SHANE's OFFICE....

AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, TWF AGENT TONY GAREA FLIES INTO SHANE's OFFICE IN SOMEWHAT OF A PANIC.

Tony Garea: "I can't find him Shane..... Raven's nowhere to be found".

Shane: "Okay, I guess go ahead and cancel his match and we'll have to wait it out".

Garea: "Sure thing".

THE SHOT SHIFTS TO ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE CHRIS BENOIT IS WALKING BACK AND FORTH, WORKING HIS ARMS IN A CIRCULAR MOTION. SUDDENLY, RANDY ORTON COMES UP.

Randy Orton: "Hey Crippler".

Chris Benoit: "What do you want"?

Orton: (very sarcastically) "Good luck tonight".

BENOIT GETS IN HIS FACE.

Benoit: "Listen up...... I have been waiting for this my whole career and I am just one step away! I don't need to good luck from a twenty three year old punk who was still in diapers when my journey began"!

AN INTENSE BENOIT WALKS AWAY AS ORTON CAN ONLY GRIN.

BACK INTO THE ARENA, THE FANS ARE AT A CALM CHEER UNTIL THE LAUGH OF THE MILLION DOLLAR MAN IS HEARD AND "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" HITS. TED DIBIASE LEADS ROB CONWAY AND NICK DINSMORE TO THE RING.

Cole: "Benoit is ready folks.... he gets his shot to go to WrestleMania tonight"!

Ventura: "Yeah but Randy Orton is not his opponent".

Cole: "Ted Dibiase will lead Charlie Haas into that match but right now, his Million Dollar Team of Conway and Dinsmore is set for tag team action".

"TNT" BY AC/DC HITS, LEADING CHRIS TIRPAK AND BRADSHAW OUT TO A GOOD POP.

Ventura: "I like this team of Conway and Dinsmore and I predict that someday soon, they will hold tag team gold here in the TWF".

Cole: "Well they'll get a chance to see how they measure up against a team that used to hold those very titles in Tirpak and Bradshaw".

Ventura: "Tirpak and Bradshaw had a tremendous run as champs but since then, Tirpak tried to go onto bigger and better things on his own and I'd say it threw their chemistry off a bit".

The Million Dollar Team w/ Ted Dibiase vs. Chris Tirpak and Bradshaw

The bell sounded and it was Tirpak starting things off with Conway. Out of a tie up, Tirpak tossed him to the floor, showing a big advantage in the strength department. Conway bounced up throwing a right hand but Tirpak blocked it and whipped him to the ropes where he dropped him with a clothesline. Tirpak then went for a big elbow drop but was off the mark as Conway rolled out of harms way. He then pulled Tirpak up and tagged him with consecutive punches before sending him hard into th corner. A tag was made to Dinsmore and he and Conway put Tirpak down with a double suplex. Dinsmore then went into a reverse chin lock, looking to wear Tirpak down. But Tirpak still had a lot left in him and he worked his way up, driving 2 elbows into Dinsmore's gut and then dropping him with a headbutt. He made it over and tagged in Bradshaw who came in all fired up. After pounding Dinsmore with a chop and hammer combination in the corner, Bradshaw shot him into the ropes and used a big back body drop. Conway entered the ring but Bradshaw turned around and put him on the mat with a shoulder block. Dinsmore got up and came from behind, looking for a german suplex. But when he couldn't get the big Texan over, Bradshaw made him eat a back elbow. He went over to make a tag but Conway ripped him down by his hair. Tirpak decided to get in anyway and all hell broke loose. Referee Chad Patton was doing his best to maintain control but with all 4 men in the ring, he was having a tough time. After a big kneelift on Dinsmore, Tirpak went to hit the ropes but Dibiase pulled the top rope down for a lowbridge effect and Tirpak tumbled to the floor. In the ring, Bradshaw reversed an irish whip to the corner on Conway and hit the ropes looking for the "Clothesline from Hell" but Conway ducked and rolled him up, hooking the tights for the 1......2.......3.

Match Time: 6:01

Ventura: "He got him....... Dibiase's got all his men on a roll"!

Cole: "Well not only did Conway have the tights, but the way I see it, he wasn't even the legal man"!

Ventura: "Well for those of you keeping score at home, that goes as a win for the Million Dollar team and a big L for the former tag team champs"!

BACKSTAGE......

AS THE CAMERAS GO INTO THE BACKSTAGE AREA, IDALIS IS STANDING WITH AXL IRVIN.

Idalis: "Axl Irvin, last week on PrimeTime, you used the fact that you were in a chain match to take out the Dynamic Duo. Now I.......

Axl Irvin: "Look here sweet thing, what I did last week was add two more notches to my belt. Ya see, from now on, I wanna be known simply as Axl Irvin, the Superhero Killer! I hate a man that can't show his face and has to hide behind a mask. So tonight Ultimo Dragon..... after I whip your ass, I'm gonna rip that mask off and expose you to all these people"!

IRVIN WALKS AWAY AS IDALIS JUST LOOKS ON.

IN ANOTHER PART OF THE ARENA, SEAN O'HAIRE AND ESSA RIOS ARE SHOWN SITTING IN A LITTLE CUBICLE, EACH READING THE LATEST ISSUE OF SPORTS ILLUSTRATED MAGAZINE.

Sean O'haire: "Ya know, I hate the fact that they're coming down so hard on the University of Colorado. I know if I were a football player, the best way to recruit men would be alcohol and women... how bout you Essa"?

Essa Rios: "Yes.... yes".

JUST THEN, TRISH STRATUS WALKS UP.

Trish Stratus: "I couldn't help but overhear. Do you know that that school is surrounded with rape allegations"?

O'haire: "Well I'm sure some of those girls have made that allegation, only because they realized they were just being used to make the football team better".

O'HAIRE AND RIOS START TO LAUGH AND TRISH RARES BACK TO SLAP O'HAIRE. BUT BEFORE SHE CAN, A HAND GRABS HER ARM AND THE CAMERA MOVES OVER TO SHOW THAT IT's TRAVIS WAKEMAN.

Travis Wakeman: "Don't worry about him, he's not worth it".

O'HAIRE DROPS HIS MAGAZINE AND STANDS UP.

O'haire: "Oh is that right"?

Trish: "Watch out"!

JUST THEN, RICK MARTEL COMES FROM BEHIND WITH A STEEL CHAIR AND WHACKS WAKEMAN ACROSS THE BACK. WAKEMAN GOES DOWN AND TRISH RUNS OVER AS O'HAIRE AND RIOS GET UP AND WALK AWAY... LAUGHING. MARTEL IS ALREADY OUT OF SIGHT AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

Bradshaw: "Chris, I'm sorry about what happened out there. We had em! Wait, whoa, who's this guy"?

Tirpak: "This is....

Perfect: "Rick Perfect, newest PrimeTime superstar".

PERFECT EXTENDS HIS HAND BUT BRADSHAW JUST STANDS THERE.

BRADSHAW OPENS THE DOOR AND TIRPAK EXITS. PERFECT LETS OUT A SIGH OF FRUSTRATION AS BRADSHAW CLOSES THE DOOR.

ON ANOTHER SIDE OF THE ARENA, CAMERAS SHOW BAHAMUT SITTING ON A BENCH BY HIMSELF, SEEMING A LITTLE AGITATED. JUST THEN, "STONE COLD" STEVE AUSTIN COMES UP.

Stone Cold: "What's up big man, want a beer"?

AUSTIN TOSSES BAHAMUT A CAN OF BEER WHO CATCHES IT AND THROWS IT OVER HIS HEAD.

Bahamut: "What do you want"?

Stone Cold: "It's not really what I want. It's what all the fans of the TWF want".

Bahamut: "Fans? You want me to do something for the fans"?

Stone Cold: "Look man, a long time ago, I thought it was cool to get booed to. Until they started cheering things they should've been booing. Listen man, I'm not saying you have to change your attitude, just who you direct it towards. I've got a tag team main event set up tonight in which Brock Lesnar is gonna team with Batista to face Rob Van Dam and a partner. RVD would love to have you on his team, despite what you two have been through. I'm hopin' you'll do the right thing".

AUSTIN GETS UP AND WALKS AWAY AS BAHAMUT JUST LOOKS AT THE GROUND.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "DO YOU CALL MY NAME" BY RA HITS AND AXL IRVIN COMES OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT.

FIRE EXTENDS UP THE INSIDE OF THE ENTRANCE AS THE ULTIMO DRAGON's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A LOUD CHEER WITH THE LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST.

Cole: "All the more reason for the Dragon to turn up the heat tonight"!

Ventura: "Is this for the title"?

Cole: "This will be a non-title match but you can bet that if Irvin wins, he'll be trying to shed the pounds to get into the Lightheavyweight division".

Ventura: "I think he'd be just as happy with that stupid mask than Ultimo's belt"!

Cole: "The mask is what Ultimo Dragon is all about! If Axl Irvin goes through with his plan tonight... he could destroy one hell of a career"!

Non-Title Match

Axl Irvin vs. Lightheavyweight champ The Ultimo Dragon

Before the bell rang, Irvin attacked Ultimo from behind before he could even remove the cape he wore out. Irvin took it off for him and began to ring his neck with it. Referee Jose Mendez threatened a DQ so Irvin to the cape and tossed it out of the ring. Ultimo fought hack with a few shots to the gut and a thrust chop to the throat but after hitting the ropes, Axl blasted him with a clothesline. He then dropped a big leg across his throat and got a short 2 count. He pulled him up and attempted to take the mask off but Ultimo countered with a jawbreaker. He then bounced off the ropes but Irvin kicked him right in the face with a shuffle kick. After a delay vertical suplex, he made a motion as if to try and remove the mask again but Ultimo flipped his arms into the air and caught him with a kicks to the gut before ducking a quick clothesline and catching Axl with a spin kick right on the jaw.

BACK TO LIVE ACTION, "619" HITS AND BOTH REY MYSTERIO AND CARNEY POP UP FROM UNDER THE RAMP TO A HUGE CHEER.

Cole: "Will history repeat it self tonight in Reno and present these two with tag team gold? Carney and Rey Mysterio have a huge oppurtunity in front of them tonight"!

Ventura: "It is a huge oppurtunity Cole, I just hope that these two realize that"!

"ROCK HARD" BY JA RULE HITS AND JORDAN ROCKWELL COMES OUT ALONG WITH RHYNO.

Cole: "It was Jordan Rockwell who said he'd give them a rematch if they won the first meeting and Carney pinned him one, two, three so I'd say they're well aware of what they have an oppurtunity to do"!

Ventura: "Well let's not take anything away from our champions, Rockwell and Rhyno are hungry to prove that that was a fluke".

Cole: "You're right Jesse, it's gonna have to be a mistake free match for Carney and Mysterio if they plan on beating two of the best PrimeTime has to offer".

Jordan Rockwell and Rhyno vs. Rey Mysterio and Carney

This was a back and forth, seesaw battle between 4 fan favorites. Rockwell and Mysterio were engaged in a trade off of moves until Rey caught him with a wheelbarrow bulldog off an irish whip. Carney came in and took Rhyno off the apron with a dropkick and Rey came off the top ring rope by "dropping the dime". He rolled him over and hooked the leg to get the 1.....2......., but Rockwell got a shoulder off the mat. Rey tagged in Carney who came in and went for a tornado ddt on Rockwell but Rockwell threw him across the ring and clotheslined him when he landed on his feet. He tagged in the manbeast who slowed down the pace, exactly what the champions wanted. After driving his shoulder into Carney's rib cage multiple times, he whipped him to the ropes but dropped his head too early and Carney kicked him in the head. He then took him out with a dropkick right on the left kneecap before diving over and tagging in Rey. Over the next 3 minutes, Rey and Carney made 6 exchanges and they began to wear the champs down. After hitting the ropes, Carney ran right into a spinebuster and both men were down. Rhyno was able to make it over and tag in Rockwell who came in and pulled Carney up before hitting the Scarlet Fever. But instead of going for a pin, he locked in the Tranquilizer and Carney looked like he was ready to tap out but Rey came in and stomped on Rockwell's hjead to break it up. Rey then tried to rally Carney and he got up. They then looked at each other and Carney went to the top rope. But when Rhyno got into the ring, he changed his target to him and went for a missile dropkick. But Rhyno swatted him away and then caught Rey with a "Gore" that took him right out of mid air as he went for the "West Coast Pop" on Rockwell. "HOLY SHIT" chants rang through the arena as Rockwell recovered and pulled Carney into the Rock Smasher, hooking the leg for the 1.....2......3.

Match Time: 8:23

Cole: "And the champions have survived.... what a match"!

Ventura: "Survival is exactly what that was Cole.... they got everything they could handle"!

AS "ROCK HARD" PLAYED, ROCKWELL HELPED REY TO HIS FEET AND RHYNO DID LIKEWISE WITH CARNEY. THE CROWD CHEERED AS ALL 4 MEN STOOD WITH THEIR ARMS RAISED, THE TITLE BELTS IN THE HANDS OF ROCKWELL AND RHYNO.

Cole: "What an effort from Carney and Mysterio but Rockwell and Rhyno retain to defend another day"!

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

AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, CHARLIE HAAS AND TED DIBIASE ARE MAKING THEIR WAY OUT AS "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" PLAYS. THEY ENTER THE RING TO RESOUNDING BOOS.

Cole: "Back on PrimeTime and we are ready for what should be a great clash for the number one contendership"!

Ventura: "I still don't agree with what Charlie Haas is having to go through on a weekly basis Cole... he was the winner of the Royal Rumble and just because he was more intelligent than everyone else, he's being punished".

"WHATEVER" BY OUR LADY PEACE HITS AND CHRIS BENOIT COMES OUT TO A RESPECTFUL CHEER.

Cole: "No, he just cheated better than anyone else. Haven't you heard that cheaters never prosper and yes, they usually get punished too! Tonight, it's time to reward a superstar who has worked as hard, if not harder than anyone to get to the WrestleMania main event and tonight is his chance"!

Ventura: "Oh yeah, create a feel good story Cole, that just gives Haas more incentive to beat him too".

#1 contendership

Charlie Haas w/ Ted Dibiase vs. Chris Benoit

Easily a match of the month nominee, this turned into a technical masterpiece. After some basic chain wrestling, Benoit and Haas traded holds and reversals on the mat before coming to a standing stare down, bringing the crowd up in cheer. They locked up again and Haas used a standard go behind and ducked a back elbow. He had Benoit set up for a northern lights suplex but Benoit got a kneelift in before going for the Crossface. Haas blocked it and went for a clothesline but Benoit ducked and blasted Haas with a clothesline that turned him inside out. He then pulled him up and hit 2 consecutive german suplexes but when he went for a third, Haas blocked it and came up with an inventive rollup that nearly stole the match. But after blocking a right hand, Benoit pasted the chest of Haas with knifedge chops that echoed through the arena and had the Reno fans "WOOING". Benoit hit a snap suplex and then did his throat slash gesture before going to the top rope. As referee Mike Chioda kept a close eye on Dibiase, he came off with his diving headbutt but Haas rolled out of the way. Haas then kicked it into a higher gear and rocked Benoit with 3 hard rights before using an amatuer takedown and out of nowhere, he had the "Haas of Pain" locked in. Benoit was screaming in pain but nothing could deter his will. After battling the hold for about 45 seconds, he struggled to the bottom rope to break the hold. Haas broke it and pulled him up. He sent him to the ropes but Benoit ducked a clothesline and latched on, hitting a german suplex as Chioda got down to make the 1........2.......3.

Match Time: 11:59

Cole: "Benoit did it..... he did it"!

Ventura: "The crowd is going berserk here.... it's not right"!

Cole: "Wait a minute, what is this"?

THE CAMERA WAS FOCUSED ON BRIAN HEBNER WHO HAD COME OUT AND WAS CONVERSING WITH CHIODA. CHIODA WENT TO RING ANNOUNCER TONY CHIMEL WITH AN ANNOUNCEMENT.

Tony Chimel: "Ladies and gentlemen, referee Brian Hebner has informed referee Mike Chioda that both men had their shoulders down for the count of three, therefore, this match is ruled a draw"!

THE CROWD ERUPTS INTO BOOS.

Cole: "What"?!

Ventura: "Look at the replay..... it's plain as day......

REPLAYS SHOWN CONFIRMED THE FACT.

Benoit pinned himself"!

DIBIASE AND HAAS LEFT AND DIBIASE WAS LAUGHING UNCONTROLLABLY AS BENOIT SAT DEJECTEDLY IN THE RING.

Cole: "So what does this mean"?

Ventura: "It means that Benoit has no one to blame for not going to the main event at WrestleMania but himself Michael"!

BACKSTAGE......

TRAVIS WAKEMAN, WITH TRISH STANDING OVER HIM, IS GETTING HIS BACK LOOKED AT BY THE TRAINER.

Trish: "Is he gonna be alright? We have a match tonight".

Trainer: "I don't know, he's pretty banged up".

WAKEMAN FLIES OFF THE BENCH TO THE CONCERN OF THE TRAINER.

Wakeman: "I feel fine..... let's go".

WAKEMAN AND TRISH START TO WALK AWAY.

Trainer: "Wait......

BACK INSIDE THE ARENA, RICK MARTEL's MUSIC HITS AND HE AND NIDIA COME OUT, SHOWERED BY BOOS. WITH A SMILE ON HIS FACE, MARTEL SPRAYS HIS SIGNATURE ARROGANCE.

Cole: "Looks like Wakeman's gonna go and if I were Martel, I'd let Nidia wrestle most of the match"!

Ventura: "Why? You think Martel is afraid Michael Cole? Let me tell you something, I've known Martel a long time and I'm willing to bet that he can still go hold for hold with Wakeman"!

Cole: "I highly doubt that.

"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES OUT WITH TRISH TO HIS USUAL PYRO AS THE FANS LOUDLY CHEER.

This is the Technical Magician Jesse! He didn't get that name for nothin'"!

Ventura: "yeah and mine's The Body...... wanna know how I got that?! Martel's is The Model, so what"?!

Wakeman: "He might be a model but Wakeman's about ready to rearrange his features"!

Mixed Gender Tag

Travis Wakeman and Trish Stratus vs. Rick "The Model" Martel and Nidia

As the bell sounded, Wakeman was in obvious pain, wincing. Trish and Nidia, who had plenty of unfinished business, started things off. After a lockup, Nidia slapped Trish right across the face. Trish retaliated with a hard slap of her own and the two divas went to the mat, pulling hair and getting in any shots they could. After reversing an irish whip to the corner, Trish hit the ropes and took Nidia down with a bulldog. She rolled her over and looked to have a quick victory but Martel came in and pulled her off. Wakeman tried to come into the ring but referee Brian Hebner stopped him. Trish got in Martel's face but Nidia came with a hard shot from behind and tagged in Martel. Surprisingly, Martel screamed for Wakeman to get in. Trish crawled over and made the tag and Wakeman came in with a head of steam but Martel poked him in the eye. This irritated Wakeman throughout the match and opened the door for some offense for Martel. After rocking Wakeman with some solid rights, he ran his eyes along the top rope, taunting Trish as he did. He then whipped him to the far corner and got Hebner's attention as Nidia used a tag rope set up for the main event to choke him. Martel charged in when she let go but Wakeman responded with a foot to the face. He then came out with a clothesline that seemed to turn the tide. With both men down, Wakeman picked Martel up for an atomic drop and Nidia came into the ring. She jumped on Wakeman's shoulders but he flipped her off and Trish came in. Hebner pulled Trish to her corner as Wakeman locked in the Sharpshooter on Martel and he was tapping out. But Hebner was missing it and Nidia grabbed the bottle of arrogance and brought it into the ring, spraying it in Wakeman's face. Wakeman immediately grabbed his eyes but Martel rolled him up for the 1......2.....3.

Match Time: 10:32

Cole: "Are you kidding me?! Martel pinned Wakeman"?!

Ventura: "Sorry Hulkster, looks like my man Rick Martel beat you to it"!

MARTEL's MUSIC HIT AND HE AND NIDIA WALKED UP THE RAMP IN JUBILATION AS TRISH AND HEBNER TENDED TO WAKEMAN. HEBNER THEN WAVED FOR THE EMT's WHO HIT THE RING FAST.

Cole: "This could be a tragic situation folks and you have to wonder, how will this affect that match with Hogan.... is it off"?

Ventura: "Hey, the trainer told him to stay back, I don't feel sorry for him".

WAKEMAN WAS SHOWN STRUGGLING AROUND THE EMT's AS THE SHOT WENT BACKSTAGE.

BACKSTAGE.... SHANE's OFFICE.....

Shane: "I know, but now we gotta pick out a new opponent to face Haas next week".

Stone Cold: "And you want me to do it"?

Shane: "Why not? You've pulled out all the others".

STONE COLD REACHES HIS HAND IN AND PULLS OUT A BALL AND OPENS IT.

Stone Cold: "What the hell? I'm not a superstar Shane".

Shane: "Oh, I included you because you're still on the active roster".

Stone Cold: "But I'm the Enforcer.... put it back in, I'll draw another".

Shane: "No, that's the one we got, that's the one we're gonna go with. Next week on PrimeTime, it's gonna be you versus Charlie Haas".

Stone Cold: "I don't know.... there's others to think about".

AUSTIN LEAVES THE OFFICE AS PRIMETIME GOES TO BREAK.

A COMMERCIAL FOR STACKER 2 IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PROGRAMMING AD FOR AMERICAN IDOL.

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

AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, SABLE IS LEADING BATISTA AND BROCK LESNAR OUT TO LESNAR's MUSIC. BROCK HAS THE UNIVERSAL TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST AND WHEN HE JUMPS UP ON THE APRON, FIREWORKS POP OFF FROM EACH TURNBUCKLE.

Cole: "Welcome back to TWF PrimeTime and Jesse, what about the huge news we just heard before the break? Austin will face Charlie Haas next week for the number one contendership"!

Ventura: "Well let's just hope Austin does the right thing and renounces that"!

"ONE OF A KIND" BY BREAKING POINT HITS AND ROB VAN DAM COMES OUT TO A BIG POP.

Cole: "This match was set up by Austin by the question remains, will RVD have a partner"?!

Ventura: "I can't see anyone dumb enough to come out here"!

Cole: "And they're not wasting any time either"!

AS SOON AS RVD GOT INTO THE RING, SABLE SCURRIED OUT AS BATISTA ATTACKED HIM. REFEREE EARL HEBNER HAD HIS HANDS FULL AS BROCK AND BATISTA PULLED RVD APART. BUT AFTER 5 MINUTES OF TOTAL DOMINANCE, FANS AND EVERYONE IN ATTENDANCE WAS SHOCKED WHEN BAHAMUT MADE HIS WAY DOWN TO THE RING.

Cole: "Look at this........ Bahamut is coming out"!

Ventura: "Don't do it Bahamut! This would be career suicide"!

RVD DID HIS BEST TO GET BACK IN THE MATCH BUT AFTER A DOUBLE SPINEBUSTER, BROCK DARED BAHAMUT TO GET INTO THE RING AS BATISTA DROPPED RVD WITH HIS SIT OUT POWERBOMB AND HEBNER MADE A 3 COUNT.

Ventura: "Stick a fork in RVD"!

Cole: "Damn it! Bahamut has betrayed RVD and everyone else, including Stone Cold"!

Ventura: "You made a good choice Bahamut"!

BAHAMUT WENT AND GRABBED THE TIMEKEEPER'S CHAIR AND ENTERED THE RING, STANDING OVER RVD.

Cole: "Oh no, now what"?

BUT JUST THEN, BAHAMUT TURNED AND HIT BATISTA AND LESNAR WITH THE CHAIR.... SENDING THE CROWD INTO A FRENZY. HE CHALLENGED THEM TO GET INTO THE RING AS "BOMBSHELL" BY POWERMAN 5000 HIT BUT THEY RETREATED UP THE RAMP.

Cole: "Oh I love it and so do these fans.... it's the old Bahamut"!

Ventura: "And just a stupid as ever! Career suicide Bahamut... that's what you just committed"!
