May 7, 2004
The National Car Rental Center was rockin as if the Florida Panthers were actually in the Stanley Cup Playoffs. But tonight, the TWF was in town and more specifically, PrimeTime. Over 17,000 fans crowded the joint and bought over 80% of the merchandise at the stands. The action in the ring got started with Uprising which featured 3 good matches before the lights came on for PrimeTime. Guido Maritato vs. Paul London The action was quick in this one and that is something Guido did not want because London loves the quick pace. Guido was able to sloe it down with an armbar DDT into a dragon sleeper. But London worked his way up and was able to flip out of the hold and catch Guido with a stiff enziguri. That allowed him time to mount the turnbuckle and come off with his shooting star press to pick up the 1......2......3. Rick Clark vs. Mortis Clark showed his physical side in this one after countering the "Flatliner". He smashed Mortis with some bruising forearms before hammering him with some swinging shots to the side of the head. He then delivered a powerslam style vertical suplex before picking him up for a fisherman suplex that got the pin. Jamie Noble vs. The Dark Prince This was a great finish to Uprising and it ended in an upset. The Prince dominated Noble from the opening bell but after escaping a chokeslam, Noble got back into the match with a dropkick to the knee. He then came off the top rope with a flying DDT that got a long 2 count. The Prince was able to reverse an irish whip and catch him with a boot to the face but after whipping him to the corner, The Prince charged in and Noble moved out of the way before schoolboying him and putting his feet up on the top rope for added leverage to get the 3 count. THE PRINCE WAS FURIOUS, KICKING THE RING ROPES AS HE PLEADED WITH THE REFEREE, WATCHING JAMIE NOBLE WALK UP THE RAMP WITH HIS ARM RAISED. PRIMETIME GOES LIVE
PRIMETIME's MONTAGE STARTS FOLLOWING A CLIP IN WHICH A RAVEN IS SHOWN SITTING ATOP A BUILDING AND A WHISPERING VOICE SAYS "QUOTE THE RAVEN...... NEVERMORE". PRIMETIME's MONTAGE THEN RUNS SHOWING ALL IT's SUPERSTARS AS THE JAM PACKED ARENA COMES INTO VIEW. Michael Cole: "Foul Play is behind us but the backlash from it is not! We are live from the National Car Rental Center in Fort Lauderdale for TWF PrimeTime"! AKIO AND SAKODA ARE SHOWN IN THE RING. Jesse Ventura: "You hit the nail on the head Michael, there will be a lot of backlash here tonight as Foul Play solved some situations, but left many questions unanswered"! "STAND BACK.... THERE's A HURRICANE COMIN' THROUGH" IS HEARD AS THE DYNAMIC DUO's MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT TO A HUGE POP. Cole: "We have a huge night for you tonight fans as Edge will face the turncoat, the manbeast Rhyno in the main event"! Ventura: "Edge returned at Foul Play with a successful win but tonight, he's gonna get a reality check if you ask me"! Cole: "All that plus..... oh wait a minute"! AS HURRICANE AND CYCLONE WERE TAKING OFF THE CAPES, RANDY ORTON AND BATISTA CAME FROM BEHIND AND ATTACKED THEM. ORTON RAMMED HURRICANE INTO THE RING STEPS AS BATISTA TOSSED CYCLONE INTO THE STEEL POST. THEY THEN GOT INTO THE RING AND AKIO AND SAKODA LEFT BEFORE MEETING THE SAME FATE. Ventura: "Here's some of that backlash we talked about Michael"! Cole: "Randy Orton and Batista have destroyed Hurricane and Cyclone and now Orton has the microphone"! Randy Orton: "Now, unless you people want to watch me and the big man do that to everyone who walks out here tonight, then I suggest you tell whoever is in charge to listen up! THE CROWD BOOS Now I am not leaving this ring until I am named the number one contender for the Universal title"! Cole: "What? He's the one who was pinned at Foul Play"! JUST THEN, "END OF EVERYTHING" BY STEREOMUD HITS AND RAVEN COMES OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT. Ventura: "Here comes Raven". Raven: "Randy, Randy, rather than sabotage my show tonight, listen for a moment". Cole: "His show"? Raven: "Now, I realize that you want to be Universal champion but the problem is, Nails shares that desire. Now rather than sit out here and argue which one of you deserves the next shot at RVD, let me entertain you with my thought". Orton: "I'm all ears". Raven: "I think you would agree that Nails is one mean S.O.B. Orton nods his head. Okay, now imagine if you and him were working together, to take out a common enemy". Cole: "What's he getting at". Raven: "That is why next week, right here on TWF PrimeTime, it's gonna be Rob Van Dam against Randy Orton........ and Nails"! Cole: "What"?! Ventura: "A handicap match"! ORTON AND BATISTA JUST START LAUGHING AS NAILS COMES OUT AND SHAKES HANDS WITH RAVEN. HE THEN LOOKS ON THROUGH HIS HOCKEY MASK AT ORTON AND BATISTA. Cole: "RVD is doomed! Something's gotta be done"! THE SHOT FADES OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK...... A COMMERCIAL PROMOTING THE NBA PLAYOFFS IS RUN FOLLOWED BY A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE "BREAKIN' ALL THE RULES" STARRING JAMIE FOXX. RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.... Cole: "This place is still buzzing over the announcement just made by Raven that Rob Van Dam will battle Randy Orton and Nails in a handicap match next week"! Ventura: "And not only that, but a team of Orton and Nails with a common enemy". RAVEN IS NOW IN THE RING Raven: "For those of you who don't know, I'm Raven, acting Enforcer of PrimeTime. I have talked to Vince McMahon and he is in full support of me assuming this position". Cole: "I don't know whether I believe that". Raven: "So enjoy the show and next week, every match on the card will be fought under Raven's Rules"! Ventura: "Wow, Van Dam's chances just went down even further". Raven: "And one other thing before I go.... Shane McMahon, a speedy recovery to you". "END OF EVERYTHING" PLAYS AGAIN AND RAVEN GETS ON THE TURNBUCKLE, ARMS EXTENDED OUT. Cole: "I can't stand this guy as acting Enforcer and now, he's ordered that every match for next week's PrimeTime be held under Raven's Rules"! Ventura: "Yeah and I'd say what he just said to Shane is far from sincere". Cole: "Gee ya think"? BACKSTAGE..... CAMERAS IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA PICK UP A FIGHT THAT HAS BROKEN OUT BETWEEN EDGE AND RENE DUPREE. QUICKLY, MEMBERS OF SECURITY BREAK IT UP BUT THE TWO CONTINUE TO YELL AT EACH OTHER. BACK AT RINGSIDE, SEAN O'HAIRE's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND HE IS IN THE RING IN HIS TRENCH COAT. Cole: "Those two were really goin' at it". Ventura: "Probably because Edge blamed Dupree for what happened to his dressing room at Foul Play. I talked to Edge earlier and he was looking for him". Cole: "Like there's any doubt it was him... come on". THE SOUND OF A DRAGON IS HEARD AS ULTIMO DRAGON's TUNE STARTS UP AND FIRE RISES UP FROM EACH SIDE OF THE ENTRANCE RAMP. THE CROWD POPS WHEN HE COMES OUT WITH THE LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. Ventura: "Well it looks like he found him and he might not be so glad that he did". Cole: "Fresh off disposing of Essa Rios at Foul Play... here is the man that is still Lightheavyweight champion and arguably the hottest superstar in the TWF right now Jesse". Ventura: "I can't argue with that, he has been unbelievable but I don't think he'll get by Sean O'Haire tonight"! Cole: "Ultimo will be giving up a lot of weight in this non-title match but he is on a huge winning streak and looks ready"! Non-Title: Sean O'Haire vs. Lightheavyweight champ Ultimo Dragon This brilliant contest quickly turned into a match of the month nominee. Showing no fear, Ultimo came right at O'Haire, drilling him with kicks to the body before lacing him with some knifedge chops in the corner. He went for an irish whip but O'Haire reversed it and charged in, running into both of the Dragon's feet. Ultimo then went to the middle turnbuckle for the Asai moonsault but O'Haire caught him and then dropped him with a shoulderbreaker. The right shoulder became O'Haire's target as he tried to stretch it way out. Ultimo got up and actually escaped with a somersault but when he got up, O'Haire gave him a thrust chop to the throat. That's when O'Haire broke out his martial arts skills. He had the Dragon reeling but off an irish whip, Ultimo ducked a clothesline and kicked him in the gut before going for the Dragon DDT. But O'haire pushed him into the ropes and smashed him with a spin kick as he came off. After a chop to the gut, O'Haire hit him with a running knee lift and went to the top rope, looking for the Seanton Bomb. He hit it and covered Ultimo for the 1........2......, but the count was stopped by referee Mike Enos when Ultimo got a foot on the bottom rope. O'Haire pulled him up and whipped him to the ropes but Ultimo again ducked a clothesline and grabbed his arm. After putting it between his legs, Ultimo rolled to the mat with O'Haire in a Fujiwara armbar and O'Haire tapped out in a lot of pain. Match Time: 10:00 Cole: "And that's it! What a win for the Dragon who just keeps rolling"! Ventura: "Here comes Rios"! ESSA RIOS CAME RUNNING OUT WITH A STEEL CHAIR BUT ULTIMO SAW HIM IN TIME AND GOT OUT OF THE RING, GRABBING HIS BELT AS THE CROWD LOUDLY CHEERED. Cole: "Not tonight says Ultimo! He has gotta be driving these two crazy"! Ventura: "O'Haire will come up with something Michael, this is not acceptable to him. Ultimo Dragon is being made to look like Godzilla"! BACKSTAGE...... IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA, A NERVOUS IDALIS IS SHOWN WITH ARIES IN A DARK, SECLUDED PART OF THE ARENA. Aries: "Oh Idalis, don't be afraid, my problem is not with you. Not unless you were one of those gutless soldiers who tried to humiliate the people of Iraq. President Bush should be ashamed of the people he's sending over there. President Bush.... should not be in office. But Idalis, this is the problem with America today. And then they wonder why... when it happens to them. This is exactly why I have great disdain for this country and it's government! (HE GETS IN IDALIS' FACE WHO IS VISIBLY TREMBLING) SUDDENLY, CHRIS TIRPAK AND RICK CLARK COME OVER IN A HURRY. Chris Tirpak: "My brother died for this country you son of a bitch.... how dare..... Aries: "How dare I? Do you think I haven't experienced loss? Since you seem to have so much energy, Chris, how 'bout you meet me in the ring next week"? Tirpak: "You want it.... you got it"! CLARK PULLS A FIRED UP TIRPAK AWAY AS ARIES GOES INTO A SINISTER LAUGH UNDERNEATH HIS MASK. IDALIS SLOWLY BACKS AWAY. BACK AT RINGSIDE, LOW-KI IS IN THE RING WITH 2 OF HIS CHOSEN PARTNERS, CHRISTOPHER DANIELS AND MORTIS. Cole: "What the hell is wrong with Aries? Here's a suggestion, if you don't like it here, leave"! Ventura: "He might not have a choice after what Tirpak does to him next week". FRANKIE KAZARIAN's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A FAVORABLE RESPONSE. Cole: "Here comes the man who should be Hardcore champion". Ventura: "Okay, I'll agree with you on some things Michael but that is not one of them. If Kazarian had the friends Stamboli does, he would've won that match. But he turned his back on them"! Cole: "Turned his back? I think it was the other way around. But another group that seemed destined for implosion, The Chosen, seems to have pulled themselves out of the grave". Ventura: "And a win here for Low-Ki would further evidence that". Low-Ki w/ Christopher Daniels and Mortis vs. Frankie Kazarian After following the graet O'Haire-Dragon tilt, these two put on a performance nearly as good. There was several big spots and several near falls. In the latter stages of the match, Kazarian caught Low-Ki with an enziguri that dropped him flat on his face. He then picked him up for a Gory Special drop and rolled him over for the 1.....2......., but Low-Ki was up. After ducking a clothesline, Low-Ki caught Kazarian with a stiff superkick before going to the top rope and coming off with a twisting corkscrew. But Kazarian rolled all the way out of the ring to avoid it. He then got on the apron and landed a slingshot elbow on Low-Ki before pulling him up for the "Wave of the Future". But Low-Ki countered by holding onto the top rope and then kicked Kazarian hard in the back of the head. That led to the "Ki Crush Driver" and a 1......2.......3. Match Time: 9:40 Ventura: "That is possibly the most devastating finishing move in wrestling Michael.... that is wicked"! Cole: "Low-Ki has earned a big win here and now Daniels and Mortis are congratulating him". Christopher Daniels: "Just to clear up any misconception out there, The Chosen is back and in top form. I having full recovered from my injury and now..... the sermon starts again. So we will...... JUST THEN, "HAUNTED" BY EVANESCENCE HITS AND SHANE THOMPSON COMES OUT, HOLDING THE INTERCONTINENTAL TITLE. Cole: "Well here comes Shane Thompson and he seems to have a purpose in that walk". Shane Thompson: "Daniels.... you say the Chosen is back in true form, but I get none of the credit? Yeah, we may've had a losing streak with you out, but I took care of the Dark Prince at Foul Play! It seems to me the Chosen has only one problem Chris...... you"! Daniels: "Thompson, you better no what you're doing". Thompson: "I don't wanna hear you people cheer because I could still give a damn about you! But Daniels..... you do have a problem. It's the fact that you may be the leader of this group, but you haven't accomplished nearly what I have in the TWF"! THOMPSON TOSSES THE MIC ON THE GROUND AND WALKS AWAY. Ventura: "What is he doing"? Cole: "He's just accused Daniels of being jealous.... basically. Maybe The Chosen is still standing over that grave"! Ventura: "They'll have to just talk to him, everything will be alright when he calms down". THE SHOT FADES OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK....... A COMMERCIAL FOR BUD LIGHT IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR BURGER KING. RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.... AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" IS PLAYING AND TED DIBIASE IS IN THE RING WITH THE MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION AND AXL IRVIN. Ted Dibiase: "Welcome back to PrimeTime.... there Michael Cole, I saved you some breath! Ventura: (laughs) Dibiase: "I wanted to come out here in front of all you peasants and all you commoners to show you all what real cash looks like! I am going to pay each one of these guys for their performances lately and prove to all of you that it does pay to do business with the Million Dollar Man"! DIBIASE PULLS OUT A WAD OF BILLS AND STARTS DISTRIBUTING THEM BETWEEN THE 4 MEN. Cole: "This guy has some nerve". JUST THEN, THE WORDS "AXL TV" APPEAR ON THE PRIMETRON ACCOMPANIED BY SOME FRUITY MUSIC. Ventura: "What the hell is this"?! JUST THEN, A MAN DRESSED UP LIKE AXL IRVIN IS SHOWN IN A BEDROOM WITH A YOUNG LADY. Fake Axl: "Okay baby, you ready for little Axl to come out and play"? SHE JUST LOOKS AT HIM AND SMILES AS HE UNZIPS HIS PANTS. Cole: "This is..... Girl: "Uh..... where is it"? THE CROWD GOES INTO HYSTERICS AS IRVIN THROWS A FIT IN THE RING. Dibiase: "Who the hell is behind this?! You better watch...... JUST THEN, "ROCK HARD" BY JA RULE HITS AND JORDAN ROCKWELL COMES OUT TO ONE HELL OF A POP. Cole: (trying to get control of himself) "I'm sorry.... that was just too much"! Ventura: "That was hardly funny Cole, it's someone with a sick mind... probably this guy"! Cole: "Well Jordan Rockwell is scheduled to face Nick Dinsmore here but we know of his troubled past with the Million Dollar Corporation.... hardly a love loss there". Ventura: "Well whoever is behind that crap will be caught and dealt with"! ROCKWELL STOPS AT THE FOOT OF THE RING AND JUST STARTS LAUGHING AT IRVIN WHO IS HEADING UP THE RAMP, COVERING HIS FACE. Cole: "He's embarassed! Ahahahahaha"! Ventura: "Stop laughing and call the match Cole"! Jordan Rockwell vs. Nick Dinsmore w/ Ted Dibiase, Charlie Haas and Rob Conway Rockwell came out more agressive than usual in this match, hitting Dinsmore with 2 hard rights and then a big clothesline. Then off an irish whip, he delivered a big back body drop. Rockwell followed that with a snap suplex before getting the crowd charged up. Haas got up on the apron and Rockwell took a swing that missed and Dinsmore got up and clotheslined him out of the ring. As Dinsmore distracted referee Charles Robinson, Conway and Haas put the boots to Rockwell before rolling him back into the ring. Robinson looked at them suspiciously and warned them not to get involved as Dinsmore delivered a big german suplex. Dinsmore then focused on the lower back of Rockwell, driving the base of his knee into it. But off an irish whip, Rockwell ducked a backhand and nailed him with a flying shoulder block. He then pulled him up and delivered an inverted atomic drop followed by a hard clothesline. Rockwell then signaled to the crowd that it was over and he waited for Dinsmore to get to his feet, scooped him up and delivered the Scarlet Fever. He covered him and hooked the leg, getting 2 before Conway came in and pulled him off. Robinson called for the bell, disqualifying Dinsmore but the M.D.C. was in the ring, ready to gang attack Rockwell. But Rockwell charged Conway, knocking him down with a forearm. Haas grabbed him by the waist from behind but Rockwell lowblowed him with a mule kick and then clotheslined both of them out of the ring. Dinsmore got up and charged Rockwell but Rockwell used a lowbridge with the ropes and he went sailing out as well. Rockwell turned and then grabbed Dibiase by the collar. Cole: "Here we go"! Ventura: "Unhand him"! BUT BEFORE ROCKWELL COULD DO ANYTHING, RHYNO CAME INTO THE RING AND DRILLED HIM WITH THE "GORE". RHYNO AND DIBIASE LEFT WITH THE REST OF THE M.D.C. AS THE CROWD LOUDLY BOOED. Match Time: 5:02 Ventura: "That's what he gets"! Cole: "Rockwell wins the match by DQ but he almost got much more of a bonus by knocking Dibiase into next week"! Ventura: "Yeah but thanks to Rhyno, it didn't happen"! Cole: "We'll see Rhyno later in the main event against Edge but right now, let's take a look at the TWF Re-Wind"! TWF RE-WIND SHOWS TRISH STRATUS HITTING THE "STRATUSFACTION" ON DAWN MARIE AT FOUL PLAY TO WIN HER AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN's INTERGENDER TAG TEAM MATCH. BACK TO LIVE ACTION, MARK JINDRAK's MUSIC HITS AND HE STANDS IN THE RING, GETTING MILDLY CHEERED. Ventura: "I feel sorry for Mark Jindrak, he's gonna run into Mr. Vain in one foul mood in a matter of moments". "MY WAY" BY LIMP BIZKIT HITS AND MR. VAIN IS LED OUT BY RICK MARTEL AND DAWN MARIE AS PINK CONFETTI BEGINS TO FALL FROM THE RAFTERS. Cole: "What's with the confetti? He didn't win at Foul Play"! Ventura: "He's a mega star Michael with a tremendous following". Cole: "Yeah, a following of boos. Now if Mark Jindrak can win this match tonight, imagine what that would do to this guys ego. That would be a permanent bruise"! Ventura: "It'll never happen Cole". Mr. Vain w/ Rick Martel and Dawn Marie vs. Mark Jindrak As the bell sounded, Vain took off his shades and turned to kick Jindrak. But Jindrak was ready and caught his foot. He spun him around but Vain smashed him with a clothesline. Vain then picked him up for a gutwrench suplex but just dropped him flat on his face. He sized him up for his submission finisher but Jindrak sensed it coming and rolled away. Vain charged him with a clothesline but Jindrak ducked and caught him with a hard right hand. He tried to whip him to the corner but Vain reversed it. Jindrak though jumped on the top turnbuckle and flew off with a reverse clothesline. He covered Vain for the 1....2....., but Vain was up. Vain reversed an ensuing irish whip and this time planted Jindrak with a spinebuster. He then began flexing for the fans but it turned out to be a near crucial mistake as Jindrak schoolboyed him for a long two count. Jindrak then whipped him to the ropes and nailed his high elevation dropkick, going for the cover again to get another near fall. Vain was reeling as Jindrak lifted him up for a backdrop suplex but Vain flipped off and landed on his feet. He then slapped on the "Beauty Sleep" and Jindrak quickly tapped out. Match Time: 5:24 Ventura: "Just like that.... just like that this thing is over Michael"! Cole: "I thought for a minute that we had a huge upset on our hands but Vain was able to escape". Ventura: "Now he's got something to say". "MY WAY" STOPPED PLAYING AS DAWN MARIE GRABBED THE MIC FROM HOWARD FINKEL AND GAVE IT TO VAIN. Mr. Vain: "Wakeman..... I know you an that blonde bimbo are on some kind of cruise of the Caribbean, celebrating your victory. But I have another challenge to make! Next time, let's leave the women out of it! After all, you probably don't want yours around me too much"! Cole: "Please". Vain: "So when you feel like being a man Wakeman, just let me know and we'll do it again"! VAIN TOSSES THE MIC DOWN AS "MY WAY" PLAYS AGAIN. Ventura: "I hope Wakeman gets that message on his little cruise". Cole: "I'm sure he'll hear it soon! Mr. Vain has just challenged Wakeman to a match man to man and I can't wait to see it"! BACKSTAGE.... A CALMED DOWN IDALIS IS STANDING WITH ROB VAN DAM. Idalis: "Rob, earlier tonight we learned that you will have to face not one, but both of the men that challenged you for your Universal title at Foul Play. Is there any hostility towards Raven for making that match"? Rob Van Dam: "Ya know Idalis, Raven and I go way back. He could never beat me and neither one of those guys could beat me at Foul Play. So now he tries to stack the odds against me next week. But it's cool". Idalis: "It's cool"? RVD: "Oh yeah, everything's cool when you're R....V.....D. Nails, Orton, I don't have to rely on someone who I really don't care for next week. I know what I'm gonna bring to that match.... do you two"? BACK AT RINGSIDE, JON HEIDENREICH IS SHOWN COMING OUT AS HIS MUSIC PLAYS. Cole: "RVD does make a good point there Jesse". Ventura: "All RVD is doing is trying to deny the inevitable. He is going to be whipped on this show next week and we'll see how cool things are then". TAJIRI's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION. Cole: "This is gonna be a return match from a few weeks ago on PrimeTime but Jesse, Sean O'Haire is to blame here"! Ventura: "Why, for telling Heidenreich what Tajiri said about him"? Cole: "Well I talked to Tajiri today and although it was hard to understand him, he made it clear he never said that about Heidenreich. So it appears to me that O'Haire is trying to wash another mind with his own sick one"! Ventura: "Well whether he said it or not, he's in for the fight of his life against a man twice as big as him and twice as strong"! Jon Heidenreich vs. Tajiri The bell sounded and Heidenreich, still a little green in the ring, lunged at Tajiri but missed everything. The Buzzsaw then took advantage by kicking at the legs of Heidenreich, trying to knot them up. He really seemed to slow him down but he couldn't get him off his feet. Tajiri went to the middle turnbuckle and jumped off but right into the arms of Heidenreich who latched on a bear hug. Tajiri was in a lot of pain but he did have his foot on the ropes. Referee Brian Hebner saw this and ordered Heidenreich to break the hold but Heidenreich swung Tajiri around and this kind of knocked Hebner back. Taking advantage, Tajiri spit blue mist in the face of Heidenreich who let go of the hold and went wild trying to recover. Tajiri then belted him with some sharp kicks before hitting the ropes but Heidenreich had wiped just enough of the mist away to smash him with a clothesline that made him do a flip. Heidenreich then lifted him up and let out an angry scream as he dropped him emphatically with a spiral powerbomb for the 1.......2........3. Match Time: 6:27 Cole: "For the second time, Jon Heidenreich has been misted by Tajiri but for the second time, the Buzzsaw has gone down to defeat to the big man"! Ventura: "I bet Tajiri will watch who he insults from now on"! HEIDENREICH WAS GIVEN A TOWEL TO WIPE HIS FACE AS HE WALKED UP THE RAMP. Cole: "Or if he's smart, he and everyone else will just steer clear of Sean O'Haire". A COMMERCIAL FOR X-BOX IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A FOX PROGRAMMING AD FOR "THE SWAN". RETURN FROM BREAK..... RINGSIDE..... AS PRIMETIME RETURNS, RHYNO's MUSIC HITS AND HE IS SHOWERED WITH BOOS AS HE COMES OUT POUNDING HIS CHEST. Ventura: "Here comes the Motor City Manbeast Michael"! Cole: "It's time for our big main event as you see one half of the former tag team champions, the man who in cold blood turned on his friend and partner, Jordan Rockwell"! Ventura: "Well I found out what he got paid by Dibiase for doing that.... wanna hear"? "NEVER GONNA STOP" BY ROB ZOMBIE HITS AND THE PLACE COMES UNGLUED AS EDGE HOPS OUT IN HIS LONG BLACK COAT AND SHADES, ASKING THE CROWD TO GET LOUDER. Cole: "Hell no I don't! Rhyno is as low as a human being can be and that's all I know! But a long layoff from the TWF, this man returned at Foul Play to the delight of many"! Ventura: "Yeah, and he spoiled part of Ted Dibiase's evening by winning the six man tag for his team but tonight, Rhyno's gonna fix that". Cole: "This should be one heck of a battle. It's the Gore versus the Edge-a-Cution"! Edge vs. Rhyno As the bell rang, the two men met in the middle of the ring trading punches. Edge got the best of it and sent Rhyno to the ropes for an irish whip, hitting a flapjack. Edge was all fired up as he went for a clothesline when Rhyno got up but Rhyno countered it into a full nelson. Rhyno had it cinched in tight but Edge still had a lot left in him and was able to break the hold. He then shot Rhyno to the ropes and went for a dropkick but had it swatted away. After backing Edge into the corner, Rhyno drove some hard shoulders into his gut. He then tried to whip him into a short clothesline but Edge ducked and hit the Edge-O-Matic. He got a 2 count with it. Both men were to their feet and Edge delivered a couple more hard rights before hitting a running bulldog. He rolled him into a cover and got 1.....2......., but Rhyno was up. Edge waited for him to get up, sizing him up for his dreaded speer but as he charged in, Rhyno kicked him right in the head and then delivered a big spinebuster. Rhyno then measured him for the "Gore" as the fans came to their feet. But Jordan Rockwell had come out and he grabbed Rhyno's foot as he went to take off. Rhyno turned and pointed at Rockwell but Edge had gotten up and he kicked him in the gut and hit the "Edge-a-Cution" and hooked the leg for the 1........2.........3 as the crowd counted along. Match Time: 7:46 Cole: "Edge has beaten the manbeast"! Ventura: "That damn Rockwell! What business does he have out here"! RHYNO IS SHOWN STEAMING MAD IN THE RING AS EDGE AND ROCKWELL WALK UP THE RAMP AND THE CROWD LOUDLY CHEERS WHILE "NEVER GONNA STOP" PLAYS. Cole: "Rockwell has returned the favor to his former partner"! OFF AIR.......
