November 18, 2004
The Key Arena was booming with one of it's largest crowds in a long time. The superstars of TWF Rampage were in town and with 4 King of the Ring Qualification matches on the card, the fans were pretty hyped. The show was kicked off by Uprising which had 2 very competitive matchups. Mark Jindrak vs. Johnny Blaze Johnny Blaze came out and said that he had become the new MVP of Uprising after defeating Sam Wilde last week. He looked to stay on the winning track against Mark Jindrak, in his second stint with this division. But Jindrak avoided a spinning heel kick that would have knocked him out and pulled Blaze into the "Mark of Excellence" for the win. La Resistance w/ Jimmy Hart vs. Nemesis and Sam Wilde An old comraderie seems to be reforming again as Nemesis and Wilde looked excellent against Rob Storm and Sylvan Grenier. But using some double team attacks on Wilde, Jimmy Hart's tandem was able to take control until Wilde tagged out to the monster Nemesis. Nemesis came in and single handedly took on La Resistance and after taking Grenier out of the ring, he delivered the "Shut Down" on Storm for the emphatic win. AFTER THE MATCH, THE MAN WHO WILL MEET NEMESIS IN THE FIRST ROUND OF THE KING OF THE RING TOURNAMENT, JOE COREY, CAME OUT AND JUST STARED AT HIM FROM THE TOP OF THE STAGE. AS NEMESIS STARED BACK, COREY RAISED UP THE KING OF CABLE TITLE BELT AS THE SHOT FADED OUT. RAMPAGE GOES LIVE
AS RAMPAGE COMES ON THE AIR, THE UNDERTAKER's MESSAGE TO DREW BLOOD IS REPLAYED FROM LAST WEEK FOLLOWED BY A SHOT OF THE FRESH PLOT AND TOMBSTONE WITH DREW BLOOD's NAME ON IT. "ACROSS THE NATION" THEN STARTS UP AS DOES THE OPENING MONTAGE. THE KEY ARENA COMES INTO VIEW, BOOMING WITH PYRO AND FANS THAT ARE GOING CRAZY. Jim Ross: "The Key arena in Seattle, Washington is rumbling King and the reason why is TWF Rampage..... live"! Jerry Lawler: "This is one of the larger crowds we've seen this year J.R. and they are definitely jacked"! A PROMO SCREEN POPS UP WITH THE RAMPAGE LOGO IN THE BACKGROUND. THE UNDERTAKER IS ON ONE SIDE AND A-TRAIN ON THE OTHER. J.R.: "And what a main event we have for you tonight.... two of the biggest and baddest men in the TWF are gonna sqaure off tonight! The Undertaker battles A-Train"! "IF I COULD BE LIKE MACK" HITS AND RODNEY MACK MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING WITH CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL. BOTH OF WHOM ARE DANCING ON THEIR WAY DOWN THE RAMP. Lawler: "A-Train has been relegated to a bodygaurd for Christian in the last few weeks but tonight, I promise you he's gonna bring it to our World champ"! J.R.: "We've also got four King of the Ring qualification matches to take place and one of them is right now". "VIVA LA RAZA" HITS AND EDDIE GUERRERO COMES OUT TO A WILD REACTION. HE IS CARRYING SOME SORT OF DOG COLLAR AND CHAIN WITH HIM. Lawler: "What does he have J.R."? J.R.: "I don't know, some kind of contraption". Eddie Guerrero: "Hey homes..... the last time you and I fought, that little witch over there helped you beat me with a rope! Well not tonight essa..... not tonight. You see, I propose that we have a dog collar match, something you should be real familiar with. I'll put one end around my neck and you put the other around yours and we'll see who's got what it takes homes"! J.R.: "Eddie Guerrero is challenging Rodney Mack to a dog collar match and it looks like Mack has accepted"! Lawler: "Are you kidding me J.R.? Does Guerrero know what he's doing? Rodney Mack was trained by the original dog, JYD. Not to mention the fact that he's the Michael Jordan of wrestling"! J.R.: "Well it just shows the guts Eddie Guerrero displays each night but I agree, this might not be the best move". King of the Ring qualification/Dog Collar Match Rodney Mack w/ Crystal Carmichael vs. Eddie Guerrero With the collars around each other's necks, the two men had only about a 3 and a half foot space in between each other. Mack yanked at the collar and pulled Eddie down before wailing away at his back. Eddie was in a lot of pain as Mack drug him around the ring and dropped an elbow on him. He went for a cover but Eddie was up at two. He pulled him up and went for a short armed clothesline but Eddie ducked and kicked him in the midsection followed by a hard DDT. Eddie then went to the top rope but Mack got up and tried to pull him down. Eddie was able to brilliantly turn it into a headscissor takedown though. He then went to the apron and landed the flying helo. He went for a cover and got 1......2...., but Mack was up. Eddie then pulled him up and tried to bounce off the ropes but Crystal grabbed his foot. With the chain wrapped around his arm, Mack then smashed him with a clothesline. Mack pulled him up and Eddie looked out on his feet before he was put back down by the "Mack Attack" and Mack folded him up for the 3 count. Match Time: 7:42 J.R.: "Damn"! Lawler: "I told you it was a mistake J.R.! This is Rodney Mack's type of match"! J.R.: "Eddie Guerrero has just had the chance to be King of the Ring taken away from him by Crystal Carmichael.... not by Rodney Mack"! "IF I COULD BE LIKE MACK" PLAYED AS CRYSTAL LED MACK AWAY WITH THE COLLAR STILL AROUND HIS NECK. BACKSTAGE..... DRESSING ROOM....... TAYLOR MADE IS DRESSING HIMSELF IN THE MIRROR. HE PUTS A RED TOP HAT ON WHEN CARLITO COOL ENTERS THE ROOM WITH TERRI AND DESIRE. Carlito Cool: "Hey man..... looking sharp". Taylor Made: "This is what I'm gonna wear to my King of the Ring coronation". Carlito: "Well don't worry about anything..... the girls and I are gonna make sure you win tonight. HE PATS TAYLOR ON THE SHOULDER. Everything's gonna be cool". THE SHOT FADES OUT. COMMERCIAL BREAK...... A COMMERCIAL FOR THE NEW TWF FIGURES IS SHOWN FEATURING CARNEY, ARIES AND DYLAN JANSENS..... COMING JUST IN TIME FOR THE HOLIDAYS. RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE..... AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, TEDDY LONG APPROACHES HIGH OCTANE. Teddy Long: "What's happenin' playa"? High Octane: "Can I help you"? Long: "No playa, you can't help me, especially when you can't help yourself. Last week, when you decided to show Pyromania respect, you disappointed a lot of people son". High Octane: "Is that right"? Long: "That's right and later tonight, when you face my man Matt Morgan, you better be ready for him to show you no respect". LONG WALKS AWAY AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO RINGSIDE. KURT ANGLE's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT ALONG WITH KARAM IBRAHIM. J.R.: "That match will take place later tonight folks but an early King of the Ring favorite might be this youngster, Egyptian gold medal winner Karam Ibrahim"! Lawler: "Oh yeah J.R., especially with the guidance of Kurt Angle, I like this kid's chances". SHAWN STASIAK's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER ALONG WITH JACKIE GAYDA. J.R.: "We haven't seen Shawn Stasiak since he disposed of his former tag team partner Chuck Palumbo at DoomsDay and since, Palumbo has moved to SlaughterHouse but I gotta tell ya King, Stasiak's been rejuvenated ever since he aligned himself with Miss Gayda". Lawler: "Well wouldn't she rejuvenate you J.R.? Well maybe she wouldn't but I can gaurantee she would me"! J.R.: "Nonetheless, Stasiak will have his hands full with Angle's protege Ibrahim". King of the Ring Qualification Match Karam Ibrahim w/ Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Stasiak w/ Jackie Gayda This turned into an excellent wrestling exhibition as Angle shouted instructions to an impressive Ibrahim. Much like Angle, Ibrahim was a suplex machine. He got Stasiak in a front facelock on the mat but Stasiak worked his way out of it and caught Karam with a standing dropkick after ducking a clothesline. Stasiak then whiped him to the ropes and hit a cross body block to get a 2 count but Ibrahim was up just like that and he whipped Stasiak to the mat with an arm drag. All match, Ibrahim could not keep a determined Stasiak down and Angle seemed more frustrated than he did. Finally, Ibrahim hit a belly to belly suplex and then got in the Egyptian leglock. But Stasiak, in a great deal of pain, would not tap out. Ibrahim kept the hold on as the 10 minute time limit expired and Stasiak had survived. Match Time: 10:00 Lawler: "What happened? Did he give up"? J.R.: "I believe the time limit ran out". Lawler: "Time limit"? J.R.: "These qualification matches have been set for ten minute time limits and that's exactly what we have here". STASIAK AND JACKIE LEFT AS IN THE RING, ANGLE WAS CLEARLY DEJECTED. BUT JUST THEN, JOHNNY JETER CAME OUT FROM BEHIND THEM AND GOT ON THE TOP ROPE. Lawler: "What the hell?! Look J.R."! JETER LEAPED OFF WITH A MISSILE DROPKICK, DRILLING ANGLE AND THEN GETTING OUT OF THE RING. J.R.: "Oh what a shot! What a shot from Johnny Jeter"! Lawler: "Who is that guy... the janitor"?! J.R.: "That's Johnny Jeter, the man Angle and Ibrahim attacked last week without provacation and then destroyed his guitar"! Lawler: "Well I think he'll be the brunt of a lot more punishment now"! A SUIT OF ARMOR IS SHOWN UP AGAINST A WALL. SHOTS OF SHANE McMAHON, NUKE AND WILLIAM REGAL ARE SHOWN. Voiceover: "This year...... the tradition returns, a tradition where warriors become legends...... THE TWF PRESENTS THE KING OF THE RING..... ONLY ON PAY-PER-VIEW. BACK LIVE, STEVEN RICHARDS AND MR. MATURE ARE IN THE RING. J.R.: "It was always one of our most popular events and you don't wanna miss the King of the Ring as it returns to the TWF folks". Lawler: "I'm still trying to get over what happened just a few moments ago with that young moron who attacked Angle"! Steven Richards: "I am not going to the the answer to a trivia question! A question that asks who was on the losing team when Garrison Cade got his first win on Rampage! So Garrison, I know you think you're pretty cool hanging around Shawn Michaels and idolizing Shawn Michaels, but trust me, I used to idolize him too and what did it get me? Not a damn thing! So Cade, I am asking you to get your ass down to this ring and to face me like a man....... and to show Shawn Michaels exactly what you are". J.R.: "It seems as though Steven Richards has gotten a little crazed here and he's calling out Garrison Cade". MUSIC HITS AND CADE COMES OUT TO A GOOD REACTION. Lawler: "And here he comes". J.R.: "Garrison Cade was on the winning side last week in a six man tag team match, a tag team match that Richards and Worth asked for and now, now Richards wants revenge". Lawler: "I'm interested to see what this kid's got one on one J.R., so let's see". Steven Richards w/ "Mr. Mature" Oliver Worth vs. Garrison Cade Cade got into the ring and attacked Richards very aggressively as the bell sounded. Richards could not even defend himself as Cade went to the body and the head. But he was able to use a lowbridge with the ring ropes and Cade went flailing to the floor. As Richards distracted referee Jose Mendez, Oliver Worth was all over him. Cade got back into the ring and Richards blatantly choked him. He pulled him up and sent him to the corner but Cade put a foot in his face and then hit his Barry Windham bulldog to get back into it. But moments later, he went for a suplex and Richards slipped out of it before kicking Cade in the gut and hitting the "Stevie T" for the 3 count. Match Time: 5:25 Lawler: "He got him"! AFTERWARDS, RICHARDS YELLED AT CADE "DID YOU LEARN THAT FROM SHAWN MICHAELS...... HUH"? J.R.: "Garrison Cade still has some things to learn in becoming a top superstar here on Rampage but it seems as though Steven is never gonna let go of the grudge with Shawn Michaels". Lawler: "No it doesn't"! THE SHOT FADES TO BLACK. COMMERCIAL BREAK....... A PROGRAMMING AD FOR "MXC" IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A COMMERCIAL FOR UPS. AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, THE OUTSIDE OF THE KEY ARENA IS SHOWN WITH A LIGHTED SIGN SAYING "RAMPAGE LIVE.... TONIGHT"! J.R.: "It's been a wild night so far folks and we've got a lot more to come". BACKSTAGE..... AUSTIN PYROMANIA AND JOHN CENA ARE SHOWN BACKSTAGE. Austin Pyromania: "What luck huh? Now we gotta face each other next week in the first round". John Cena: "Oh don't sweat that bro, we both know what we can do out there and the man who has the best night is gonna advance. I just wanna let you know that if you beat me.... you better go all the way. PYRO LAUGHS. Now let's just go out there tonight and do what we do best". CENA KNOCKS FISTS WITH PYRO AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO RINGSIDE. "LIKE A PIMP" BY DA BAND PLAYS AND OUT COMES TAYLOR MADE AND HIS ENTOURAGE. J.R.: "Continuing on with the qualifying round, we've already seen Rodney Mack advance tonight King and due to the time limit draw we saw earlier, whoever wins this match is getting a bye straight to the semi-finals of this tournament"! Lawler: "That's great news for Taylor Made J.R. cause we all know he needs all the rest he can get if you know what I mean"! "AIN'T NO STOPPIN ME" HITS AND SHELTON BENJAMIN COMES OUT TO ONE HELL OF A POP WITH KURT ANGLE's GOLD MEDALS ADORNED AROUND HIS NECK. J.R.: "Oh boy, here comes a real favorite these days and he's gotta be a favorite to win this whole thing King"! Lawler: "I can't believe the nerve of this punk, coming out here with Kurt Angle's medals"! J.R.: "Those were awarded to him last week by Stephanie McMahon since Benjamin did defeat Angle at DoomsDay, albeit by DQ and that is what led to that ridiculous attack on Johnny Jeter". Lawler: "Yeah take a look around you Shelton, those are women! I know you've never had one that's not inflatable but there they are"! J.R.: "Will you stop". King of the Ring Qualification Match Shelton Benjamin vs. Taylor Made w/ Carlito Cool, Terri and Desire For those who remember the 5 minute challenge a few months ago set up by Joe Corey, this was a rematch of that. It lasted a little more than 5 minutes and Benjamin seemed very prepared. Carlito made several attempts to get into the match and realizing he did not possess a managerial license, referee Earl Hebner sent him to the back. This was a severe blow to Taylor as Benjamin shot him to the corner and hit a flying body splash. He then went for a knockout superkick but Taylor moved and kicked him in the back of the leg before picking him up for a shinbreaker. Taylor regrouped and hit a big DDT on Benjamin, rolling him into the cover for a 1.....2......, but Benjamin got a shoulder up. Taylor then hit a vertical suplex before going and getting a kiss from Terri and then one from Desire. But when he turned around, Benjamin threw a kick that Taylor got but it led to the dragonwhip and Shelton went for the cover to get 1......2......, but Terri put Taylor's foot on the bottom rope to break the count. Benjamin went over to the apron and had some words with Terri but Desire got up on the apron and threw a wild slap. But Shelton ducked and she nailed Taylor. Shelton then hooked him and hit his overhead t-bone right into a cover for the 1......2........3. Match Time: 7:30 J.R.: "Oh what a move and Shelton has advanced"! Lawler: "So now he gets a bye to the semi-finals"? J.R.: "He sure does King and if he wasn't a favorite before, he sure as heck is now"! BACKSTAGE..... SHAWN MICHAELS IS SHOWN TALKING WITH GARRISON CADE WHO IS STILL FRUSTRATED OVER HIS LOSS WHEN CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL COMES UP. RUNNING HER FINGERNAIL ON HBK's CHEST, SHE ASKS HIM FOR A FAVOR. Crystal Carmichael: "Ya know Shawn, my boys Jamal and Rosey want to be considered in that elite class of tag teams. And with the current competition here on Rampage, no one's gonna give them a challenge. So I thought, maybe you and a partner (she looks at Cade) could face them at King of the Ring. Just a thought". MICHAELS MOVES HER HAND FROM HIS CHEST. Shawn Michaels: "So let me get this straight. You are offering me and a partner a chance to become tag team champions? (short pause as he looks at Cade) I'll find a partner". PRIMETIME REPLAY SHOWS MIKE AUSTIN JOINING RIC FLAIR AND BATISTA IN ATTACKING RANDY ORTON AND JORDAN ROCKWELL BEING KIDNAPPED BY AXL IRVIN AND ORLANDO JORDAN AFTER A MESSAGE OF "THE FUN HAS JUST BEGUN" FROM SHANE THOMPSON. BACK INSIDE THE ARENA, THE BASHAMS' MUSIC IS PLAYING AND THEY ARE IN THE RING. J.R.: "That should be a tremendous match on pay-per-view whoever Shawn Michaels should select as a partner but I disagree with Miss Carmichael, I think either of the teams we're about to see could give Jamal and Rosey a run for their money". THE OLD THEME FOR PYRONOMICS HITS AND PYRO POUNDS OFF EVERYWHERE AS STACY KIEBLER LEADS THEM OUT TO ONE OF THE NIGHT'S LOUDER OVATIONS. Lawler: "Well I do agree with Crystal, I mean let's face it, Jamal and Rosey have been..... oh my gosh look at Stacy J.R."! J.R.: "You gonna finish your thought there? As many of you know, Austin Pyromania and John Cena, who have formed quite a bond over the last several months, have drawn each other's name in the first round of the King of the Ring tournament and that match will take place next week, right here on Rampage". Lawler: "Well I can assure you J.R., that bond will be thrown out the window in that match! Both these guys are gonna do whatever it takes to win"! JUST THEN, THE BASHAM's ATTACK CENA AND PYROMANIA FROM BEHIND. J.R.: "Oh look out"! The Bashams vs. Pyronomics w/ Stacy Kiebler After recovering from the sneak attack, Cena and Pyromania came back to have perhaps their best match ever as a team. After a diving shoulder block by Cena on Doug, Pyromania delivered his version of the 5 knuckle shuffle. They then caught Danny with a double suplex before Cena muscled Doug up and put him down with the "F-U". Moments later, Pyro put Danny down with the "Pyrotechnics" and Cena put on an STF, getting Danny to submit. Match Time: 5:25 AS THEIR MUSIC PLAYED, CENA AND PYRO SHOOK HANDS AND THEN STACY RAISED EACH OF THEIR ARMS. J.R.: "What a scene here on Rampage, a very successful tag team match for Pyronomics"! Lawler: "Cena has won by submission two weeks in a row J.R., Pyromania better be ready for that"! THE PROMO GRAPHIC WITH UNDERTAKER AND A-TRAIN POPS UP AGAIN. J.R.: "I think Pyromania's gonna be ready for anything, just as our World champion The Undertaker will later tonight against the three hundred and fifty pound A-Train later tonight.... you don't wanna go away"! COMMERCIAL BREAK...... A COMMERCIAL FOR CASTROL GTX IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR DR. PEPPER. RETURN FROM BREAK..... RINGSIDE..... AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, "UNDER A BROTHA SERVICES" MUSIC IS PLAYING AND TEDDY LONG IS LEADING MATT MORGAN TO THE RING. J.R.: "This will be our fourth and final qualification match tonight and we heard earlier that High Octane disappointed some folks with his decision to shake Austin Pyromania's hand last week". Lawler: "Myself included. "AN ENGINE LOUDLY REVS AND "DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS" PLAYS AS HIGH OCTANE COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION BUT MORE CHEERS THAN HE's ACCUSTOMED TO. I mean, this was one of my favorite guys J.R., he was so close to reaching the top and then..... J.R.: "And then what? He showed a man respect for a match that brought the house down on pay-per-view? Abd because of that, he's not ever gonna reach the top? I definitely disagree"! Lawler: "Well I think he's King of the Ring tournament hopes are gonna be dashed tonight at the hands of that man.... Mount Morgan". J.R.: "It will be an uphill climb for High Octane, no doubt but he has the ability to get it done". King of the Ring Qualification Match Matt Morgan w/ Teddy Long vs. "High Octane" Damion West This one nearly went the time limit as well but a winner was decided. Octane was just too fast for Morgam, plain and simple. After ducking a clothesline and peppering him with some kicks, Octane knocked him over the top rope with a spin kick on the jaw. Morgan took a minute to regroup and then pulled Octane by the leg, tripping him up. Morgan then pulled him over to the corner and wrapped his right leg around the ring post. Octane had been effectively slowed down and Morgan took advantage, dropping two heavy elbows on him. Morgan then pulled him up into a bear hug, trying to suck all the oxygen out of him. But Octane countered with a slap on the ears followed by a dropkick on the left kneecap. Octane went for an irish whip but Morgan reversed it, slinging him to the corner. He charged in but Octane moved and then schoolboyed him. But referee Jack Doan was busy with Teddy Long who'd jumped on the apron. Octane went over and grabbed Long but Morgan got up and ran through him with a boot to the face. Morgan then shot him to the ropes but he dropped his head too soon and Octane hit a jumping leg-o-matic. Morgan was out but again, Long was on the apron. Octane went outside to the top rope and came off with a cross body block but Morgan caught him and drove him into the mat with a swinging sideslam. It appeared to be over and Morgan topped him for the 1.......2......., but Octane got a shoulder up. Moments later, Morgan missed with a clothesline and Octane smoked him with the "Head on Collision". He covered him and hooked the leg but for a third time, Long jumped up on the apron. This time though, Doan had had enough and he called for the bell, disqualifying Morgan. Match Time: 9:23 Lawler: "What?! He can't disqualify him for that"! J.R.: "Well he just did King! Oh watch it"! HIGH OCTANE GOT HIS HAND RAISED BY DOAN BUT MORGAN CAME WITH A SHOT FROM BEHIND AND THEN HIS FALLING FULL NELSON SLAM. THE FANS BOOED AS MORGAN LEFT WITH LONG. Lawler: "He sure doesn't look like a winner to me"! J.R.: "High Octane, battered and bruised after this confrontation with Mount Morgan, has advanced to the first round of the tournament and will be in action next week". BACKSTAGE.... DRESSING ROOM..... JOE COREY AND ALEXIS LAREE ARE WATCHING SOME OLD TWF FOOTAGE INVOLVING NEMESIS. Alexis Laree: "Isn't this the guy that used to take his anger out on women"? Joe Corey: "Yeah.... but don't worry, he lays a finger on you, and he's a dead man". SMOKE BILLOWS OUT OF EITHER SIDE OF THE ENTRANCE RAMP AND A-TRAIN COMES OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT, BEATING HIS CHEST. J.R.: "That match between Nemesis and Joe Corey will take place next week in the first round of the King of the Ring tournament along with two others but right now, it's time for our mega main event". Lawler: "And I gotta tell ya J.R., I like this guy's chances tonight"! THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND A BELL TOLLS, LEADING THE CROWD INTO SILENCE. SOME OF WHICH SPARK THEIR LIGHTERS TO CREATE A FLAME. J.R.: "One of the most bone chilling experiences you will ever witness in this industry is taking place right now. It is the entrance of The Undertaker". Lawler: "I think I just felt something crawl up my leg J.R., get the lights back on"! THE UNDERTAKER REACHES THE RING STEPS AND RAISES HIS ARMS AS THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON. THE CAMERA GETS A GOOD SHOT OF THE TWF WORLD TITLE THAT IS AROUND HIS WAIST AND HIS EYES THAT ARE ROLLED BACK IN HIS HEAD. A-TRAIN LOOKS ON IN AWE. J.R.: "A-Train better have brought his A game tonight King because The Undertaker has been next to unstoppable for some time now". Lawler: "Well at six foot eight and three hundred and fifty pounds, he will give The Undertaker all he can handle here"! J.R.: "The title is not on the line in this one but there is no doubt what a win would do for the career of A-Train here". Non-Title Match A-Train vs. World Champ The Undertaker After an initial square off, A-Train rattled the dead man with a headbutt and proceeded to hand out one of the worst beatings he's ever taken. But Undertaker would not stay down, even after an avalanche in the corner and after swatting away a clothesline, Taker set him up for the chokeslam. But Christian ran out and got into the ring. He threw a right hand but Taker blocked it and drilled him with a right of his own followed by a boot right to the face. Taker turned around though and was crunched by A-Train's Pump Kick. He made the cover but could only get a 2 count. A-Train then lifted him up and delivered the Baldo Bomb and it seemed like we had a huge upset in the making but as A-Train yelled into the crowd, Taker sat up. He then avoided a clothesline and hoisted A-Train up onto his shoulder before dumping him with the Tombstone. Taker crossed the big man's arms as Earl Hebner counted the 1........2........3. Match Time: 6:56 J.R.: "And that'll do it. An exhausting, hard fought victory for The Undertaker but his TWF legacy continues to grow King". Lawler: "Yeah I suppose it does, but it didn't come easily tonight". CHRISTIAN AND A-TRAIN STUMBLED UP THE RAMP WHEN DREW BLOOD APPEARED ON THE TWF TRON, PEERING OUT FROM UNDER A BLACK HOOD. J.R.: "Wait a minute King, that's Drew Blood". DREW BEGAN CLAPPING. Drew Blood: "Well done deadman..... well done. I must say, after I saw the grave with my name all over it, it sent a clear message to me. It said to me, this man wants to play. And I can play mind games too. So, since you seem to be fixated with getting revenge for being crucified at DoomsDay..... what's say we raise the stakes a little. You put your World title on the line..... against me.... at King of the Ring.... and the first man to bleed loses". J.R.: "A first blood match"? THE UNDERTAKER NODS AS IF TO SAY "YES". Lawler: "Look"! DREW STARTS LAUGHING. Drew Blood: "I thought that's what you'd say. I'll see you...... see you in hell that is"! A MANIACAL, ECHOING LAUGH IS HEARD AS THE TWF TRON BLANKS OUT AND TAKER JUST LOOKS ON. J.R.: "The Undertaker has just agreed to defend the World title in a first blood match at King of the Ring"! JUST THEN, THE UNDERTAKER IS DOUSED WITH A VAT OF BLOOD THAT WAS HANGING ABOVE THE RING. TAKER LOOKS DEMONIC AS HE STANDS IN THE RED SUBSTANCE. Lawler: "Oh my gosh.... this isn't good J.R.". J.R.: "Has he made a deal with the devil"?! OFF AIR.......
