"RAP SUPERSTAR" PLAYS AND PRIMETIME's MONTAGE ROLLS FOLLOWED BY AN ARENA ROCKING FIREWORK DISPLAY. AS THE CAMERA PANS, SEVERAL TWF-HUNGRY FANS ARE SHOWN AS IS THE TRADEMARK ORANGE AND SILVER RING.

Michael Cole: "It's been a long, long road, but TWF PrimeTime has reached it's final stop before WrestleMania! Welcome to PrimeTime, Michael Cole alongside Josh Matthews"!

Josh Matthews: "Glad to be here for the second time in my life Michael but I'm not happy about the reason why".

THE FBI's MUSIC HITS AND ALL 3 MEN MAKE THEIR WAY DOWN THE RAMP TO A LOT OF HEAT, LARGELY DUE TO THE FACT THAT THEY WERE THE FIRST OUT.

Cole: "After a reprehensible attack by Brock Lesnar, my usual partner Jesse Ventura is at home resting but I talked to him today folks and he assured me that he would be back at WrestleMania"!

Matthews: "Well not only that, but Brock himself has decided not to show up tonight"!

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

Cole: "Well I bet Jesse will be changing his favorite wrestler here on PrimeTime soon".

Matthews: "We will however here from Steve Austin tonight and you can bet he's gonna address the Universal champion but first, we've got six man action"!

THE PATRIOTIC THEME OF RICK PERFECT HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER.

Cole: "We all got familiar with this man last week after his in ring debut, a victory over Jamie Noble, but Chris Tirpak also got familiar with him after Perfect revealed that he spent time with his late brother in the war in Iraq"!

PERFECT GETS INTO THE RING AND SLAPS HANDS WITH HIS PARTNERS AS THE BELL SOUNDS.

Mattews: "It was a very touching moment on PrimeTime last week but tonight, it's back to the action and the FBI look hungry for a win"!

6 man tag team match

The FBI vs. Chris Tirpak, Bradshaw and Rick Perfect

Perfect started the match off with the big bull Johnny Stamboli and from a collar and elbow tie, neither man could get control. Stamboli then bounced off the ropes and ran into Perfect but the former member of the armed forces stood tall. Perfect then hit the ropes himself but Stamboli rammed his shoulder into his. Neither man budged but Stamboli rocked him with a right hand. Perfect fired back and a trade off started. Stamboli snuck in a knee lift but after hitting the ropes, Perfect was waiting with a combat boot loaded shuffle kick. He tagged in Tirpak who came in and ran over Stamboli with a clothesline. After a scoop slam, he hit the ropes looking for a legdrop but missed and Stamboli made the tag to Guido Maritato. The smaller, quicker Maritato provided an elusive target Tirpak grew a little frustrated. Guido dropkicked him in the knee and went for a tornado ddt but Tirpak launched him across the ring and then drilled him with a clothesline. Bradshaw was tagged in but Frankie Kazarian was too as Guido was in their corner. Bradshaw stood tall as Kazarian sized him up. Kazarian lunged at him and Bradshaw threw a right hand but missed and Kazarian got him in a waist lock. Kazarian then went for a northern lights suplex but the bulky Bradshaw would not budge, hammering Kazarian across the back and knocking him to the mat. Bradshaw then picked him up for a big suplex before raising one finger in the air to the cheer of the Springfield crowd. But Guido stepped onto the bottom rope and slapped Bradshaw from behind. A furious Bradshaw grabbed at Guido but got nothing but air and Kazarian came from behind with a high knee to the back. This opened up an FBI onslaught on the big Texan for the next 5 minutes with each man getting in his shots. After a double dropkick by Guido and Kazarian, Stamboli tried to pick Bradshaw up for the "Fuhgetaboutit" but Bradshaw fell out of his grasp and pushed him to the ropes, drilling him with a boot to the mouth. Bradshaw then picked him up and hit the Last Call as both men were down. The fans began to really get into the match and tags were made on each side, Stamboli to Kazarian and Bradshaw to Tirpak. Both men came in throwing heavy shots but Tirpak's had more behind them and after a right hook, he bounced off the ropes but Kazarian was waiting with a huge superkick. He tagged in Guido who went straight to the top rope but after jumping off, Tirpak clotheslined him right out of air. He then tagged in Perfect before knocking Stamboli off the apron. Kazarian sized Tirpak up for another superkick but before he could deliver it, Bradshaw took him out with the "Clothesline from Hell". Perfect then put Guido down with a fisherman suplex to get 1.......2........3.

Match Time: 8:48

Cole: "The Full Blooded Italians have gone down to defeat at the hands of this newly formed trio"!

Matthews: "These three are really clicking together Cole and some of these other groups here on PrimeTime better be looking out for them"!

Cole: "Still to come tonight, Rob Van Dam and Chris Benoit take on the Million Dollar Team in tag team action"!

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

THERE IS A KNOCK AT THE DOOR.

Shane McMahon: "Come in".

IDALIS ENTERS

Idalis: "Mr. McMahon, someone is here to see you".

A MAN WITH BRIGHT RED, PROBABLY DYED HAIR ENTERS. HE IS DRESSED VERY NICELY.

Shane: "Can I help you"?

Sergius O'Shaughnessy: "Uh, hello sir, my name is Sergius O'Shaughnessy".

HE OFFERS TO SHAKE SHANE's HAND AND SHANE DOES.

Shane: "Okay.... Sergius, what can I do for you"?

O'Shaughnessy: "Well, I'm part of what used to be the M.O.W., the company the TWF just bought. I was wondering if I could get a shot to be on the greatest wrestling show in the world, PrimeTime".

Shane: "Hmmm, as a matter of fact, I've got a guy runnin' around here who thinks pretty highly of himself of late. If you can beat Axl Irvin one on one tonight, I'll give you a full time contract".

O'shaughnessy: "Are you serious?! Oh thank you Mr. McMahon, you won't regret this"!

Shane: "But should you fail, I'm afraid there is no place for you in the TWF at this time, are we straight about that"?

O'shaughnessy: "Yes sir.... and thank you again"!

THE MAN RUNS OUT OF THE OFFICE AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR SNICKERS IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE "HELLBOY".

RETURN FROM BREAK.....

AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, THE CHOSEN IS SHOWN ARRIVING TO THE ARENA.

Christopher Daniels: "Okay boys, so we all know our roles for tonight"?

Low Ki: "Oh yeah".

Shane Thompson: "This is gonna be a night Kid Gundam never forgets".

THOMPSON SHAKES UP A CAN OF SPRAY PAINT AS THE SHOT COMES BACK INSIDE THE CIVIC CENTER.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, SERGIUS O'SHAUGHNESSY IS IN THE RING.

Matthews: "There is no telling what Shane Thompson plans to do with that spray paint Michael, but it can't be good".

"DO YOU CALL MY NAME" BY RA HITS AND AXL IRVIN COMES OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT. HE IS HOLDING THE MASKS OF THE HURRICANE AND CYCLONE, ONE IN EACH HAND.

Cole: "No there isn't but look at this guy, still carrying those fake masks around".

Matthews: "He calls himself the Superhero Killer Cole but tonight, he's been matched up against a very successful superstar from the old M.O.W., Sergius O'Shaughnessy".

Cole: "O'shaughnessy was also known as the Red Terror over there and he is just one of many M.O.W. superstars you will be seeing over the next several weeks".

Matthews: "You talk about a do or die situation Cole, this is it! A win gets O'shaughnessy a PrimeTime contract but a loss gets him nothing"!

Axl Irvin vs. Sergius O'shaughnessy of the M.O.W.

As the bell sounded, Irvin got ready to lock up with another small opponent, which he's had mixed success against. O'shaughnessy jumped out to an early advantage, using a pair of armdrags before a nice dropkick. He then hit the ropes for a springboard reverse cross body but Irvin rolled through it and nearly pinned him. Irvin dropped him with a subsequent clothesline and went to lock in a sitover armbar but O'shaughnessy rolled him up for a 1......2....., but Irvin was up. O'shaughnessy got another near fall with a crucifix before going to the top rope, connecting on a missle dropkick. O'shaughnessy then got onto his shoulders, looking for a victory roll but Irvin used an electric chair drop to counter. Irvin then whipped him to the corner and charged in but O'shaughnessy used the top rope to pull himself up and he used a sunset flip for a 1.....2........, but that was all. O'shaughnessy then pulled Axl to his feet and went for an irish whip but it was reversed and Irvin connected with a hard clothesline. O'shaughnessy then fell right into his grasp and he put him down with the "Axl Cutter" to collect the 1.........2........3.

Match Time: 5:15

Cole: "Ah.... damn! This youngster was that close Josh"!

Matthews: "Close but no cigar Michael and also, no contract".

Cole: "Now what the hell is this"?!

JUST THEN, IRVIN PULLED A SMALL PAIR OF SCISSORS OUT OF HIS BOOT AND SNIPPED SOME OF O'SHAUGHNESSY's HAIR OFF AS THE CROWD VEHEMENTLY BOOED. "DO YOU CALL MY NAME" HIT.

Matthews: "That is totally disgraceful Cole and right now, I'm ashamed to have this man representing our great company"!

Cole: "Just who the hell does he think he is?! He's collecting all these.....these trophies and now he's got this young kid's hair"!

IRVIN WALKED UP THE RAMP, HOLDING THE PIECES OF HAIR UP IN HIS CLOSED FIST.

BACKSTAGE.....

SHANE COMES OUT OF HIS OFFICE LOOKING AT A DOCUMENT BUT WHEN HE LOOKS UP, RAVEN IS STANDING THERE.

Shane: "Oh, looked who decided to show up for work".

Raven: "I got your message and I don't appreciate the threat of firing me. Besides, with you bringing back the Hardcore division, you need someone like me".

Shane: "Someone like who? Someone who's gonna walk out when they're not happy? Well I can assure you Raven, you walked out once and I let you back. You leave again, you leave for good".

Raven: "Accepted. Now can I get my invitation to the Hardcore Invitational"?

Shane: "Oh you'll get it, but you'll have to be patient. Patience Raven would have shown you that I was bringing the Hardcore title back anyway, it had nothing to do with you".

SHANE WALKS OFF, LEAVING RAVEN WITH A SNARL ON HIS FACE.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" IS PLAYING AND TED DIBIASE LEADS HIS TEAM, ROB CONWAY AND NICK DINSMORE OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS.

Matthews: "So it sounds like Raven is in the Hardcore Invitational".

Cole: "Yeah, as long as he's patient".

BREAKING POINT's "ONE OF A KIND" HITS AND ROB VAN DAM COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP AND A SHOWER OF PYRO.

Matthews: "Big test here for Dibiase's Million Dollar Team but what a combination Rob Van Dam and Chris Benoit should make"!

"WHATEVER" BY OUR LADY PEACE HITS AND CHRIS BENOIT COMES OUT TO A WARM RECEPTION.

Cole: "You'd think we were in Canada! This crowd loves Benoit"!

Matthews: "RVD was given the spot last week to be in the interpromotional number one contender's match at WrestleMania, ya think Benoit is coll with that Cole"?

Cole: "Benoit is a man's man Josh, if he wasn't selected, he's gonna do whatever he can to climb the ladder and show everyone that he is on that same level".

The Million Dollar Team w/ Ted Dibiase vs. Chris Benoit and Rob Van Dam

RVD started things with Dinsmore and they had a great series. RVD used his feet to keep Dinsmore from doing what he does best and taking it to the mat. But once Benoit made the tag, he and Dinsmore went at it on the mat in a series the crowd loved. After a roman greco type takedown, Dinsmore tagged in Conway who went at Benoit with more of a brawling approach. After a swinging neckbreaker, he made the cover but only got about 1 1/2. Conway pulled him up and went for an irish whip but Benoit reversed it and took him out with a running forearm. He then tagged in RVD who went to the top rope but Dibiase grabbed his foot. Benoit came over and pulled Dibiase off but Dibiase gave him a thumb to the eyes that really slowed him down. In the ring, Conway and Dinsmore hit a double suplex followed by a double elbow drop when suddenly, the look-a-like Million Dollar Man came out. Dibiase saw this but his mirror image put him down with a right hand. Dinsmore came outside but the fake Dibiase and Benoit teamed up to bring him down. In the ring, RVD hit Conway with the step over heel kick after catching his foot on a kick attempt. As the fans came to their feet, he went to the top rope and hit the "5 Star Frogsplash" to get the 1......2......3.

Match Time: 5:55

Matthews: "There's the five star frogsplash and this thing is over folks"!

Cole: "One has to wonder though, who is that man dressed up like Dibiase"?!

AS THE IMPOSTER DIBIASE WALKED INTO THE BACKSTAGE AREA, RVD AND BENOIT CELEBRATED INSIDE THE RING WHEN RANDY ORTON SNUCK IN AFTER COMING THROUGH THE CROWD AND DROPPED BENOIT WITH THE "RKO". HE THEN SLIPPED OUT AS QUICKLY AS HE CAME IN.

Matthews: "Hey....that was Randy Orton"!

Cole: "Randy Orton has just laid the Crippler out and sent a big message in the process"!

Matthews: "Yeah, one saying I don't respect you or anything you've done"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

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

AS RAW RETURNS, SHANE THOMPSON HAS THE CAMERA FOCUSED ON HIM AS "HAUNTED" BY EVANESCENCE PLAYS.

Cole: "Welcome back to PrimeTime and what a night it has been here Josh".

Matthews: "Yeah, you're almost having as much fun as you do with Jesse Ventura, right"?

Cole: "Uh, in a word, no".

Shane Thompson: "Kid Gundam.... you and I have something to settle and I don't see a better place than this right, right now! So with that, I don't wanna talk about it, I wanna do it. Get your ass down to this ring..... now"!

Matthews: "Wow, that was demanding".

"ADRENALINE" BY JADE HITS AND KID GUNDAM COMES OUT BUT HE IS WITHOUT HIS INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE.

Cole: "And it looks like he's gonna get his wish"!

GUNDAM SLIDES INTO THE RING AND THOMPSON GETS IN A FEW STOMPS. BUT GUNDAM GETS UP AND FIRES BACK WITH A FEW RIGHT HANDS FOLLOWED BY A BACKHAND CHOP UNTIL THOMPSON SNEAKS IN A LOW BLOW. HE THEN GOES AND GRABS THE CAN OF SPRAY PAINT HE HAD EARLIER, WHICH WAS PERCHED UP ON A TOP TURNPAD. BUT BEFORE HE CAN SPRAY IT, "HERE COMES THE MONEY" HITS AND SHANE McMAHON COMES OUT TO A WILD POP.

Shane McMahon: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no! We're not gonna have that here tonight! Thompson, I swear, you do it, and I take away the Intercontinental title match that I just gave you against Gundam"!

Cole: "What"?

Shane: "Now put that can of spraypaint down and Gundam, you exit that ring as well"!

GUNDAM SLIDES OUT, POINTING A FINGER AT THOMPSON, WHO IS JUST SMILING.

Matthews: "Talk about getting control of your division".

SHANE AND GUNDAM HEAD INTO THE BACK.

Cole: "Thompson has an Intercontinental title match, but when"?

JUST THEN, THE LIGHTS GO OUT.

Matthews: "What the......

AFTER ABOUT 15 SECONDS, THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON AND THERE IS A MASK WITH THE BEAST's FACE ON IT, LYING ON THE MAT.

Cole: "Look at that"!

THOMPSON GOES TO GRAB THE MASK, BUT BEFORE HE CAN, A GRIM VOICE STARTS TO SPEAK.

Voice: "When a man's heart is full of deceit, it burns up, dies, and a dark shadow falls over his soul... for in the ashes of a once great man has risen a curse...a wrong that must be righted...he looked into the eyes for an indicator something to strike fear into the dark eyes of the sandman who created him...the war between good and evil has begun..."

THOMPSON LOOKS AROUND, ALMOST FRIGHTENED.

Matthews: "Wow".

Cole: "I wanna know what's going on".

ROCKWELL AND RHYNO QUICKLY GO BACK OUT OF THE DRESSING ROOM AS THE VIEW SWITCHES BACK TO RINGSIDE WHERE A 15 FOOT TALL LADDER IS SHOWN.

ESSA RIOS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS, THE MOST HE's EVER RECEIVED.

Cole: "It was last week when this man cheated, he cheated Josh to become the number one contender for the Lightheavtyweight title! Boy, that Sean O'haire's a good influence huh"?

Matthews: "Shane told Rey Mysterio last week that he would make it right and he has given him one more chance here".

"619" HITS AND REY MYSTERIO POPS UP FROM UNDER THE RAMP, AS USUAL, TO A HUGE CHEER.

Cole: "Well it's simple, the man who uses that ladder and climbs up and grabs the contract will go to WrestleMania five to face The Ultimo Dragon for the Lightheavyweight title"!

Matthews: "Well with the abilities of both these men, I look for this to be a classic Cole"!

Ladder Match/#1 Contender for TWF Lightheavyweight Title

Essa Rios vs. Rey Mysterio

With a contract to go to WrestleMania hanging high above the ring, these two put on a gem of a match. After circling each other a little bit, the bigger Rios locked up with Rey and took him down with a headlock takeover. Rey was able to escape quickly with a headscissor and then he hit the ropes. Rios caught him but Rey turned it into a wheelbarrow bulldog. He then whipped Rios to the corner and charged in for a monkey flip before sliding outside the ring and grabbing the ladder. It was almost too heavy for him and Rios came flying over the top rope with a psychotic suicide front flip, crashing into the ladder and taking Rey out too. The crowd was astonished but it was Rios who was to his feet first. He picked up the ladder and slid it into the ring. After setting it up, he began to climb but Rey came up on the apron and used a slingshot dropkick on the ladder to takeit out from under him. Rios landed hard but avoided the ladder on his fall. Rey then laid him across the ladder and went to "drop the dime" but Rios moved and he legdropped nothing but steel! As Rey writhed in pain, Rios laid him on the ladder for a standing moonsault. Rios then rolled a limp Rey off and set the ladder over his body. He began to climb again but Rey sat up and grabbed his foot, pushing him off. Rey then threw a kick which Rios grabbed but Rey turned it into a reverse enziguri. He then went to the opposite side of the still standing ladder. He got very close to the clipboard holding the contract but Rios came off the top rope with an unbelievable moonsault, taking out the ladder but hurting himself in the process. "HOLY SHIT" chants filled the Civic Center immediately and both men were down. But as Rey got up, Sean O'haire came out and delivered a wicked spin kick to the head. It looked like Rios was gonna win it again and he went to the apron, albeit slowly. Out came the Ultimo Dragon and the Lightheavyweight champion ducked a clothesline and then caught O'haire with a spin kick to the head, knocking him to the floor. Rios turned around and looked like he was gonna jump on the dragon when Rey came and used the 6-1-9 to knock him all the way back over the top rope and into the ring. Rey then set the ladder up and climbed up, grabbing the clipboard to a roaring cheer.

Match Time: 9:00

Cole: "Oh what a match! Rey Mysterio is going to WrestleMania"!

Matthews: "Thanks in part to the man he will face"!

ULTIMO DRAGON CAME INTO THE RING AS "619" PLAYED AND SHOOK THE HAND OF MYSTERIO AND RAISED HIS ARM.

Cole: "These two have a tremendous respect for one another and folks, WrestleMania just went from good to great with this match on the card"!

AS RAW RETURNS, THE CHOSEN's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND MORTIS AND LOW KI ARE IN THE RING, EACH HOLDING ONE OF THE TAG TEAM TITLES.

Low-Ki: "Hey Rockwell, Rhyno.... you guys stupid? You left your dressing room open for anyone to go inside! If you want these belts back....come get 'em"!

Cole: "Well this is scheduled to be a non-title match but those are not the champions".

JUST THEN, ROCKWELL AND RHYNO COME RUNNING TO THE RING BEFORE THEIR MUSIC EVEN STARTS AND THE FIGHT IS ON.

Matthews: "Well that's an easy choice... the fight is on"!

Non-Title Match: Low-Ki and Mortis vs. Tag Team Champions Jordan Rockwell and Rhyno

As all 4 men brawled, the bell sounded and referee Charles Robinson ordered one man from each team to their respective corners. Finally, Rhyno and Mortis locked up and they had a back and forth matchup, struggling for position until Mortis raked his eyes and then delivered an inverted neckbreaker drop before tagging in Low-Ki who was the perfect change of pace. After belting Rhyno's lower back with some stiff kicks, he whipped him to the ropes and went for his cartwheel kick but Rhyno moved and whalloped him with a clothesline. He then dove over and tagged in Rockwell who came in on fire, tagging both men with a couple right hands before catching Low-Ki with the Rock Smasher. He went for the cover but Mortis broke it up. Rockwell then took a swing at Mortis but missed and Low-Ki plastered him with a savat kick when he turned around. He then put on a front facelock and gave Rockwell several knees to the head, wearing him out. A tag was made to Mortis who came in and delivered a slingshot suplex. Mortis then put Rockwell onto his shoulders and began climbing the ropes, looking for his falling samoan drop but Rockwell rolled off and put him down with a version of the Diamond Cutter. Both men were far from their corners but Rockwell was moving quicker. Right when he made the tag, Low-Ki ran in and clotheslined him over the top rope to the floor. The two men started brawling out there while in the ring, Mortis ducked a clothesline and kicked Rhyno in the gut before delivering the "Flatliner". He covered him and got 1.........2......., but the count stopped when Rhyno put a foot on the bottom rope. Mortis got in Robinson's face, putting up 3 fingers but when he turned around..... Gore! Rhyno hit the "Gore" and that quickly, it was over.

Match Time: 8:31

ROCKWELL AND RHYNO GRABBED THEIR TITLES AND STARTED WALKING UP THE RAMP.

Matthews: "A quality win for our tag team champions heading into that big match at WrestleMania and......

Cole: "Wait a minute.....

"ROCK HARD" STOPPED PLAYING AND THE CHAMPIONS STOPPED DEAD IN THEIR TRACKS WHEN CHRISTOPHER DANIELS APPEARED ON THE PRIMETRON, IN THE MIDDLE OF A PHONE CALL.

Christopher Daniels: "Oh come on Lita, I'm not that bad, after all, I am the man that was sent to do the choosing. And don't worry, I'll spare you, because I know you don't have what it takes. But your son.... oh yes, your son is another story. Oh, and next time you talk to your husband, tell him to hide your home phone number a little better".

DANIELS HANGS UP AND FACES THE SCREEN BEFORE BREAKING INTO A SINISTER LAUGH.

Cole: "Oh my......

Matthews: "Words cannot describe what we just saw Cole.....that was sick".

ROCKWELL CHARGED BACKSTAGE AS THE SHOT WENT OUT.

Cole: "Everyone's here on PrimeTime Jish, even Hulk Hogan"!

RICK "THE MODEL" MARTEL's MUSIC HITS AND NIDIA LEADS HIM TO THE RING WITH A GOOD AMOUNT OF HEAT.

Matthews: "Well I'd say that the RAW Enforcer having a vested interest in this match would be a slight understatement".

Cole: "It started with Martel nearly permanently blinding Travis Wakeman! And then, he had him arrested! This situation has become personal and Wakeman plans to end it tonight before it ruins his preparation for his mega match with Hogan"!

METHOD MAN's "MAKE WAY" HITS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES OUT ALONG WITH TRISH TO A THUNDEROUSLY LOUD CHEER.

Matthews: "Wakeman has been waiting for this moment for a long time Cole and I am shocked that Martel challenged him to a submission match of all things".

Cole: "Martel has embarrassed Wakeman more than once and that is what this is about. If Martel can beat Wakeman at his own game tonight, imagine what that would do to his psyche heading into WrestleMania".

Matthews: "You're right, Hogan's gotta be loving this".

Special Challenge/Submission Match

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

As the bell sounded, the two men locked up and exhanged in some basic chain wrestling. Wakeman grabbed Martel in a headlock but Martel escaped with a couple elbows to the gut. He then hit the ropes and ducked a clothesline before stopping and kicking Wakeman in the right knee, followed by a clothesline of his own. Martel then rolled him over and locked in a surfboard on the mat. Wakeman was able to hold on but Martel targeted the lower back. After 2 double axe handles to the lower back, Martel scooped him up for a hard backbreaker aross his knee. After a suplex in which Martel really showed some strength, he went for the Boston Crab but Wakeman just spun his legs and sent Martel flying. Wakeman popped up and rocked Martel with 3 right hands before picking him up for a backdrop but he grabbed his lower back in pain and Martel hit a back suplex of his own. He stayed on the lower back, locking in a camel clutch but with referee Mike Chioda screaming in his ear, Wakeman refused to give up. Martel broke the hold and stomped furiously at Wakeman's back. Nidia screamed for him to do it "harder" and Martel obliged. But Wakeman would not stay down and after catching Martel's foot, he spun him around and hit an inverted atomic drop followed by a hard clothesline. Wakeman then took him down with a rolling armbar and Martel was in a lot of pain. But he got in a poke to the eye again to break the hold and Martel then locked in the Boston Crab. An upset was upon us but Wakeman gutted it out and made it to the bottom rope after nearly 1 minute in the hold. Martel stayed on him with a few right hands before distracting Chioda as Nidia got on the apron and slapped him across the face. This brought Trish running over and she took Nidia down, starting a melee on the floor. Martel whipped Wakeman to the far corner and followed in but he posted his right shoulder when Wakeman dodged him, the crack loudly sounding off. Wakeman then grabbed his right arm and wrapped it around his left leg, sitting down with the Round Table. Within about 10 seconds, The Model tapped out and Wakeman was victorious.

Match Time: 12:25

Cole: "I think Wakeman got a lot more fight from Martel than he thought he would but what a match"!

Matthews: "And you gotta wonder how much of an advantage this gas given Hulk Hogan heading into WrestleMania"!

Cole: "Speaking of.......

WAKEMAN TURNED AROUND TO SEE HOGAN IN THE RING CLAPPING AND SUDDENLY, HE INEXPLICABLY DECKED HIM.

Cole: "Oh my gosh"!

Matthews: "What did he do that for"?!

"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HIT AND WAKEMAN WALKED AWAY, LOOKING AT HIS FIST IN CONFUSION AS HOGAN CHECKED HIS OWN NOSE FOR BLOOD.

Cole: "Travis Wakeman just gave his boyhood idol a knockout shot! But what the hell for"?!

Matthews: "This is the man who at WrestleMania five could become the Universal champion Michael"!

Cole: "Well Brock Lesnar may've decided not to show up, but Stone Cold sure didn't"!

Stone Cold: "Somebody toss me a beer.

AUSTIN CATCHES A CAN OF BEER AND CRACKS IT OPEN BEFORE TAKING A SIP.

Ya know, we got a main event between Bahamut and Randy Orton to get to tonight so I don't wanna waste a lot of time. But Brock Lesnar, you did the one thing you should've never done and that was call me a bitch"!

Matthews: "And he did do that".

Stone Cold: "But the way I see it, you're sittin' at home watching me on your tv screen and ya ain't got no excuse! Bottom line is this, at WrestleMania five, I am gonna march into the Toronto Skydome, whoop a man's ass, drink some beer, become the TWF Universal champion and then drink some more damn beer! So Brock, you may call yourself the next big thing, but at WrestleMania, you're gonna get introduced to the next big can of whoop ass because PrimeTime Enforcer or not, I still got somethin' left in the tank and....bring that camera over here.

AUSTUN GETS RIGHT UP AGAINST THE CAMERA.

You are looking at the next TWF Universal champion and that's all I got to say so that's the bottom line...... (crowd chants along) cause Stone Cold said so"!

HIS MUSIC HITS AGAIN AND HE CHUGS THE BEER AS THE CROWD CHEERS SO LOUD THAT NO ONE CAN HEAR THEMSELVES TALK.

Cole: "He didn't waste a lot of time....but he sure laid out the message"!

Rockwell: "No, don't you dare do that! Daniels and Thompson, we've got those boys at Mania, so if you don't feel safe with it just being a regular match for the titles, add something, cause Rhyno and I are gonna show sides of ourselves that no one has ever seen"!

ROCKWELL LEAVES AS THE SHOT GOES TO RINGSIDE WHERE RANDY ORTON's MUSIC BY MOTORHEAD IS PLAYING AND RIC FLAIR IS WALKING DOWN THE RAMP WITH HIM.

Cole: "We already saw Randy Orton deliver an RKO to Chris Benoit tonight after he and Rob Van Dam won a tag team match against the Million Dollar Team".

Matthews: "And now he's gotta deal with the nearly seven foot tall, three hundred pound plus Bahamut who does call himself The Legend".

Cole: "Randy Orton has taken exception to that, feeling that he is the legend and tonight is a great way to settle things, in the ring".

Matthews: "Watch Flair on the outside".

Randy Orton w/ Ric Flair vs. Bahamut

After Orton wasted a lot of time getting the match underway, he pulled one over on brand new TWF referee Mike Enos. Enos warned him to open up his fists on his punches when Orton pointed into the stands as if he saw something. When Enos turned to look, he booted Bahamut in the groin and then hit the "RKO" as Doan got down to make the 1.......2......, but Bahamut was up. Bahamut got to his feet and blocked 2 right hands before headbutting Orton. After a big boot to the face, Bahamut lifted him into the air for a gorilla press slam. Flair tried to get into the ring when Chris Benoit came running out and pulled him to the floor. Benoit then went into the ring and Orton threw a right hand but he caught it and locked in the Crossface. Enos called for the bell, disqualifying Bahamut but Benoit would not let go of the hold. Bahamut held off Flair as Orton tapped and tapped until it appeared he went out cold. Benoit got up as his music played and made a throat slashing gesture as sveral officials came out and forced him to the back.

Matthews: "I hate to say this Cole, but he deserved that".

Cole: "He really did have it coming and even though he won the match, Randy Orton is gonna remember this night for a long time, but for a different reason"!
