February 4, 2005

Rampage hit the windy city off the heels of the Royal Rumble and fans were ready. Uprising was on deck first with 3 big matchups.

Garrison Cade vs. Danny Basham w/ Doug Basham

Cade was the bigger of the two men and he definitely got the best of this match. But after a collision knocked both men down, Danny rolled out of the ring. As the referee checked on Cade, Doug Basham rolled in. First pretending he was hurt, Doug used an inside cradle when Garrison picked him up to score the win.

Shane Helms vs. Justin Sane

It looked like Sane had taken some random fan out of the crowd and just beat the living hell out of him for a few minutes- that's how bad Helms looked here. But after avoiding a charging Sane in the corner, Helms came off the top rope with the blockbuster and then delivered a severe shining wizard to Sane and rolled him up for the win.

Johnny Blaze w/ Teddy Long vs. Shawn Stasiak w/ Jackie Gayda

Stasiak was looking to avenge the loss he suffered before the Royal Rumble went on the air to Matt Morgan but with a little help from Long, it was another victory for Under a Brotha Services afte Blaze connected with the "Up in Smoke" facebuster to get the win.

After the match, Teddy Long grabbed a microphone and told everyone in the arena and those watching from home that next week on Rampage, Matt Morgan will be issuing a challenge to anyone in the back to face him one on one.

UNDER A BROTHA SERVICES' MUSIC PLAYED AND LONG LEFT WITH BLAZE AS THE SHOT FADED OUT.

RAMPAGE GOES LIVE

THE INSTANT RAMPAGE COMES ON THE AIR, "BASIC THUGANOMICS" HITS AND JOHN CENA COMES OUT TO A STANDING OVATION FROM THE CHICAGO CROWD. HE IS WEARING AN OLD MICHAEL JORDAN JERSEY.

Jim Ross: "Welcome to TWF Rampage and you are looking at the man who overcame twenty nine other TWF superstars to win the 2005 Royal Rumble and King, ya can't blame John Cena for that million dollar smile on his face, he is going to main event WrestleMania six"!

Jerry Lawler: "I know he is J.R. and I can't blame him either, it was a tremendous performance"!

John Cena: "Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo!

THE CROWD CHEERS

I gotta say, you Chicago people sure know how to treat a Royal Rumble winner"!

J.R.: "This place is deafening"!

Cena: "Now, we all know that the doctor is gonna headline WrestleMania this year, we just don't know against who. We don't even know what show for that matter. But before I get into all of that, I wanna ask someone to come to the ring. Someone who I want to have my back in this crusade, someone who I wanna patch things up with a little, if ya know what I mean. So Pyro, get down here man, we gonna settle this like boys"!

Lawler: "He's asking Pyromania to come to the ring? After the way he treated him at the Rumble"?

J.R.: "No King, he's trying to do the right thing and fix a friendship, something you wouldn't know much about".

Cena: "Come on Pyro.... I know you're back there dude, I just.....

THE MUSIC OF THE DEADPOOL BEGINS TO PLAY AND THE LIGHTS START TO DIM. ATOP THE ENTRY WAY APPEARS DREW BLOOD, MORDECAI AND VISCERA.

Lawler: "Well this isn't Austin Pyromania"!

J.R.: "No it's not, it's the man who is still World champion Drew Blood and reasons number one and two why he still has the damn title"!

Cena: "Alright, nobody invited Dracula, that dude from Mortal Kombat and who's that other dude? Oh, that ain't no dude, sorry Starr Jones".

Drew Blood: "Silence! Cena, you might think it's real funny to come out here and get these simple people to laugh.... but if you decide to mess with the DeadPool, there will be no laughing. You have been given the chance to go to PrimeTime...... take it, while you can".

THE DEADPOOL's MUSIC PLAYS AGAIN AND DREW BLOOD WALKS BACKSTAGE, FOLLOWED BY HIS 2 MEN. CENA STANDS IN THE RING, HIS SMILE HAS TURNED TO A LOOK OF MADNESS.

Lawler: "And that's not a threat Cena, that's a promise"!

J.R.: "No matter what it was, they certainly have gotten the attention of Cena, King".

A PROMO GRAPHIC POPS UP CONTAINING THE RAMPAGE LOGO WITH CHRISTIAN ON ONE SIDE AND THE UNDERTAKER ON THE OTHER.

Lawler: "Well if that's any indication of the way tonight's gonna go J.R., this could be an unforgettable night"!

J.R.: "Still to come tonight, The Undertaker will battle Christian who has upset on his mind and the man we just saw, John Cena, will face the three hundred and fifty pound mammoth A-Train"!

In the locker room, Matt Cruz and Eddie Guerrero are talking when Alex Miran walks in.

Alex Miran: "Hey Cruz, don't think for a second that just because you got lucky at the Rumble and beat Steven, that you are even anywhere near his league! Either Steven or Oliver would love to take you on tonight, if you're man enough to take the challenge".

Matt Cruz: "Seeing as how your strong sexual attraction to me is overwhelming you right now, I'll let that last insult slide. You go back and tell His Royal Straightness and his sidekick that I'll be glad to hand out freshly squeezed beatdowns to either one of 'em. Just get it ok'd by Stephanie, and I'll be there. Y si no, que me maman la verga, pinche hueros cabrones!

Eddie stifles a laugh, trying not to laugh out loud

Alex Miran:(turns to Eddie) "What'd he say"?

Eddie Guerrero: "Oh, he said "if not, good luck in your future endeavors."

Both he and Cruz laugh

Alex Miran: "Ugh, grow up"!

Matt Cruz: "Why are you still here, anyway? Go deliver the message. I'll say it the way you English people say it, uh, sod off you bloody trollop".

Miran walks off while Eddie and Cruz slap hands. They part ways as Cruz walks out of the locker room and runs into Karam Ibrahim. They stare a hole in each other before they speak.

Matt Cruz: "Karam".

Karam Ibrahim: "Matt. Saw your match at the Rumble. Very impressive. Wasn't worthy of a gold medal, though. Maybe in time, when your ready, it will be. You just need experience against tougher competition, and maybe you'll come as far I have".

Matt Cruz: (scoffs) "Huh, well, when I'm "ready", you'll see what exactly I bring to the table and you'll wish I took it back. You got my word on that, and as another Latino badass once said, "I ain't got nothing in this world but my balls and my word and I don't break 'em for nobody."

Karam Ibrahim: "And I'll be waiting".

Ibrahim walks away as he bumps his shoulder into Cruz. Cruz just glares in the direction that Ibrahim walked away to.

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

A COMMERCIAL FOR STARBURST IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE "THE LONGEST YARD" FEATURING ADAM SANDLER.

RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE.....

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, TODD GRISHAM IS IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA WITH BRADSHAW.

Todd Grisham: "I am here at this time with the man who came so close to becoming World champion at the Royal Rumble. Bradshaw, what are your thoughts on the loss"?

Bradshaw: "My thoughts? What do you think my thoughts are you idiot? Unlike these people here in Chicago, I don't accept losing! And unlike what they think, there is no such thing as a moral victory. So you mark my words, you have not heard the last of me because I personally gaurantee you that sooner rather than later.... you will see my name in lights"!

BACK INSIDE THE ARENA, STEVEN RICHARDS AND MR. MATURE ARE IN THE RING.

J.R.: "We have just been informed that the challenge we just heard about has been made into a tag team match"!

"VIVA LA RAZA" IS HEARD AND LEADS INTO EDDIE GUERRERO's MUSIC AND A LOWRDIER PULLS INTO THE ARENA WITH EDDIE AT THE WHEEL AND MATT CRUZ IS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT.

J.R.: "A grand entrance for these two who will be teaming together for the first time"!

Lawler: "This Matt Cruz is getting a pretty big ego J.R. and now he's coming out in one of Eddie's custom lowriders"!

J.R.: "He's just a very confident young athlete King and after his performance at the Royal Rumble.... he should be"!

Lawler: "Well Richards and Oliver Worth are ready, they don't need an entrance like this to get attention"!

J.R.: "No, they have their mouthes to do that"!

Steven Richards and "Mr. Mature" Oliver Worth vs. Eddie Guerrero and Matt Cruz

As soon as Cruz and Guerrero exited the car, they were met with an attack from Richards and Worth in the aisle. But Guerrero and Cruz quickly overtook them to get the match in the ring. Cruz delivered a belly to belly suplex on Worth before tagging in Guerrero who brought himself in with a flying helo. Eddie then went into his little dance before knocking Richards off the apron with a cheap shot. Off an irish whip, Eddie used a drop toe hold and tagged in Cruz who locked in a front face lock on Worth. But as referee Chad Patton took Eddie to his corner, Richards got on the apron with a punch to the back of Cruz' head. This allowed Worth to tag out and Richards came into the ring to hit his censor suplex. He then screamed into the crowd that "this guy is nothing"! But he then turned and spit at Guerrero and not even Patton could stop him from coming into the ring. Worth charged Eddie but was backdropped out of the ring to the floor. Eddie then got a running start and went for a plancha on Worth but Mr. Mature moved out of the way and Eddie slammed his body against the floor. In the ring, Cruz went to counter an irish whip with a sunset flip but Richards sat down on him and reached his arms out, grabbing those of Worth without Patton seeing to get enough leverage to get the 3 count.

Match Time: 5:05

Lawler: "There we go! That oughta knock some of the confidence out of him J.R."!

J.R.: "Well it's not the first time Steven Richards has gone to the bargain basement for a victory and I'm sure it won't be the last"!

WORTH AND RICHARDS HELPED EACH OTHER UP THE RAMP AS EDDIE TRIED TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENED FROM CRUZ.

Lawler: "Wins are wins J.R., regardless of where they come from"!

J.R.: "For all the years you've been saying that, I still don't agree with it, not one damn bit"!

BACKSTAGE.....

KURT ANGLE IS SHOWN BACKSTAGE TALKING WITH A STAGEHAND WHEN KARAM IBRAHIM COMES UP.

Karam Ibrahim: "Yeah Kurt, what'd ya need"?

Kurt Angle: "What I needed was to tell you that I got us a tag team match tonight. It's against those two little punks Sam Wilde and Johnny Jeter. I thought it might be a confidence builder for you to be on the winning side for a change".

IBRAHIM JUST LOOKS AT THE GROUND.

SYLVAIN GRENIER's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT WAVING THE QUEBEC FLAG, LED BY JIMMY HART.

J.R.: "That tag team match will take place later tonight and the action just continues here on Rampage as Jimmy Hart brings Sylvain Grenier out and King, after being in tag teams throughout his career, Grenier seems to be trying his hand alone".

Lawler: "Well it was thanks to Rob Storm day being named in Toronto that led to the seperation of La Resistance and it was all because Storm didn't want to share the success"!

THE CANADIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM PLAYS AND ROB STORM COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION.

J.R.: "Oh come on King, you can't sincerely believe that! It was Rob Storm day, there's nothing to share there"!

Lawler: "Well I can assure you that Grenier took offense to it but he kept one thing that Storm didn't..... Jimmy Hart"!

J.R.: "Well by the sounds of things, Storm may have one thing Grenier never will.... fans cheering for him"!

AS JIMMY HART WAS TALKING WITH REFEREE JIM KORDERAS, GRENIER TOOK THE QUEBEC FLAG AND SMACKED STORM FROM BEHIND WITH IT, SETTING OFF A VILE ATTACK.

Lawler: "Oh what a shot! He may've knocked Storm into Toronto with that"!

OFFICIALS CAME TO THE RING TO STOP THE ATTACK.

J.R.: "Officials are coming out to stop this and this is something that was just totally uncalled for King and if you ask me, Grenier is just covering up for the fact that he can't beat his former tag team partner and he knows it"!

HART AND GRENIER LEFT LAUGHING AS THE OFFICIALS CALLED FOR AN EMT DUE TO STORM BLEEDING ABOVE HIS EYE.

Lawler: "Well that's askin' you J.R. but I would say that Grenier just sent a serious message to Mr. Toronto"!

J.R.: "Rob Storm is bleeding here and we can only hope he hasn't suffered any severe damage"!

BACKSTAGE..... STEPHANIE McMAHON's OFFICE.....

TAYLOR MADE IS SHOWN IN STEPHANIE's OFFICE, STANDING VERY CLOSE TO HER.

Taylor Made: "So Ms. McMahon, how does it feel to be back to work"?

Stephanie McMahon: "It feels good, now do ya mind, I am at the workplace here".

TAYLOR BACKS OFF A LITTLE.

Taylor: "Sorry, just used to it. Anyway, what about that title match you promised me"?

Stephanie: "Matt..... I mean Taylor Made, I didn't promise you a title match, I can't show that kind of favoritism. But, what I have done is made a six pack challenge for next week, one that involves you".

TAYLOR POINTS TO HIS ABS.

Taylor Made: "But I already have a six pack".

Stephanie: "Not that. Next week, you and five other superstars will face off and the winner will become the number one contender for the King of Cable title".

Taylor: "Thank you, that's what I needed to hear".

TAYLOR GOES TO KISS HER BUT SHE PULLS AWAY.

Stephanie: "Not here, remember? Work place".

Taylor: "I'll save it".

TAYLOR WALKS OUT AS STEPHANIE LETS OUT A STRESSFUL SIGH.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.....

A COMMERCIAL FOR TACO BELL IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR SNICKERS.

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

WITH THE RETURN OF RAMPAGE, A-TRAIN IS ON HIS WAY TO THE RING TO A LOUD ERRAY OF BOOS.

BUT SECONDS LATER, "BASIC THUGANOMICS" FILLS THE SPEAKERS AND THOSE BOOS TURN TO VERY LOUD CHEERS.

J.R.: "Welcome back to Rampage and here comes the 2005 Royal Rumble winner and if you missed the top of the broadcast, you missed Cena trying to patch things up with Austin Pyromania".

Lawler: "But Pyromania never came out so that oughta tell this guy something. Not only that, but after the warning Drew Blood gave him to leave Rampage, I can't believe he's still here"!

J.R.: "Drew Blood did tell Cena that he was safer on PrimeTime which he now has the option of going to but the last time I checked King, Drew Blood didn't run Rampage".

FROM BEHIND, A-TRAIN ATTACKS CENA TO GET THE MATCH STARTED.

Lawler: "There ya go A-Train, put the boots to him"!

A-Train vs. John Cena

The massive A-Train used his weight to choke Cena down before hammering him across the back. He then trapped him in a bear hug and began to suck everything out of him. But Cena held on in the move and escaped using an ear clap. He then hit the ropes and ducked an A-Train clothesline before exploding off the other side with a big shoulder tackle. Cena was all fired up and so was the crowd as he finally ripped off his Jordan jersey and tossed it into the crowd where several fans dove around for it. Cena then pumped up his old Reebok shoes and waited for the Train to get up and when he did, he put him up and right back down with the "F-U" before falling onto him to get the 1.......2.......3.

Match Time: 4:15

"BASIC THUGANOMICS" HIT AGAIN AS REFEREE JOSE MENDEZ RAISED CENA's ARM.

J.R.: "The roll just continues for Cena and King, I expect him to roll right into WrestleMania on this same high"!

Lawler: "Well he better heed Drew Blood's warning if he knows what's good for him"!

J.R.: "Wait a minute King, look".

CENA TURNED TO SEE AUSTIN PYROMANIA COMING DOWN THE RAMP WITH STACY KIEBLER, WHO WAS TRYING TO GET HIM TO GO BACK.

Pyromania: "You wanted to see me Cena?! Well don't pick up that microphone because we've all heard you talk enough! You wanna call some sort of a truce with me? Well you can forget it! Because from now on, the most important person to me.... is me! No Stacy, you stop, this is something that needs to be said! See John, you're gonna find out what it's like to witness someone exactly like yourself.... an egotistical, self-centered son of a bitch"!

PYROMANIA THROWS THE MIC DOWN AS "DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE" HITS AND HE PULLS STACY BACK WITH HIM AS CENA LOOKS ON IN DISBELIEF.

J.R.: "What in the world has gotten into Pyromania"?

Lawler: "Well you gotta admit J.R., at least in Pyromania's eyes, Cena has probably seemed pretty selfish lately"!

BACKSTAGE AREA.......

SHAWN MICHAELS IS TALKING WITH GARRISON CADE AND BOTH ARE STUNNED TO SEE TRAVIS WAKEMAN COME UP IN STREET CLOTHES.

Travis Wakeman: "Shawn, have you seen The Undertaker"?

Shawn Michaels: "Wha.... what are you doing here"?

Wakeman: "I have something to take care of. Where the hell is he"?

Michaels: "Well, he has a match against Christian tonight. But somewhere in this arena is Drew Blood and his boys".

Wakeman: "Nah, that'll have to wait for another time. The reaper's the one I want tonight".

WAKEMAN WALKS AWAY AS CADE GIVES MICHAELS A WIERD LOOK.

IN THE RING, MARK JINDRAK's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND HE IS ON THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE, PLAYING TO THE CROWD.

Lawler: "Did you see that J.R.?! Travis Wakeman is here..... on Rampage"!

J.R.: "Yes I saw it and I must admit my thoughts are a little jumbled right now. I'm still trying to piece together this situation between the team that used to call themselves Thuganomics".

MORDECAI's ENTRANCE THEME HITS AND HE MAKES HIS WAY OUT IN HIS HOODED WHITE ROBE AND IS CARRYING HIS STAFF, BOTH HANDS TIGHTLY CLUTCHED AROUND IT.

Lawler: "Well let's face it J.R., that team is done, Pyromania just confirmed that"!

J.R.: "And they don't get any easier to figure out as one of the most complex superstars in TWF history makes his way to the ring here".

Lawler: "Mordecai is a member of the DeadPool J.R. and a minute ago you said you were sure they didn't run Rampage but with the list of victims they're compiling, they might as well"!

J.R.: "Jindrak looks a little stymied as far as how to attack the pale rider goes but King, he and Viscera need to understand that all they are is pawns in the grand scheme of Drew Blood! He doesn't care about these guys"!

Mark Jindrak vs. Mordecai

Mordecai got started quickly with 2 very big uppercut like shots on Jindrak. After a big backbreaker, he hit the ropes but missed with an elbow drop. Jindrak then went to his body with a few punches but when he ran in on him in the corner, Mordecai stuck his foot in his face. Mordecai then hit a gutwrench suplex before seemingly staring off with a sick grin on his face. He then picked MJ up and shot him for the ride but Jindrak avoided a big backhand and delivered a dropkick that would've made any wrestler jealous. Thinking Mordecai was in trouble, Jindrak went to the top rope and flew off with a reverse clothesline but Mordecai avoided the contact and pulled him in for a chicken wing jawbreaker. Mordecai probably had the match won there but he got Jindrak up and delivered his Crucifix Powerbomb which was more than enough for the win.

Match Time: 6:00

J.R.: "Chalk another one up for the DeadPool and I'll give ya one thing King, that trail of victims is becoming quite alarming".

Lawler: "And getting back to what you just said J.R. about Drew Blood not caring for them. As weird as it may sound, I don't think they have a problem with that"!

J.R.: "Well then they need to do some serious soul searching but one thing's for sure and that's that this is one dangerous human being and the DeadPool are a very dangerous group"!

BACKSTAGE......

Todd Grisham: "I am here with the man who is still TWF King of Cable, Joe Corey. Mr. Corey, would you like to give these people in Chicago your thoughts on still having that belt"?

Joe Corey: "What’s the matter? Were you all expecting Nemesis to come out here tonight for a grand celebration? Well, as you can see, that is not going to happen. All Nemesis can do is realize that his time has come to an end. He wanted to prove to the world that he was still a force here in the TWF, but he met a roadblock, and that roadblock was me.

The crowd starts booing again, and an “Asshole” chant starts.

Corey: Oh cute, that’s real cute. Is that any way to treat a champion? You people have no class. I bet if this was Primetime, you would all boo my god friend Shane Thompson, the new TWF Universal Champion. Well, I am the King of Cable, the longest reigning King of Cable in TWF history. I will not stand for this! You know, you people are lucky that I didn’t win the Royal Rumble, because I would have jumped to Primetime in a heartbeat, and there would be no talent on this show at all. So mark my words, you people may not like me, but you will respect me. As God as my witness, you will respect me. And trust me, it won’t just be a matter of time, it will be a matter of SHOWTIME"!

Grisham: "Well Joe, with all due respect, you did have some help in defeating Nemesis at the Royal Rumble. Care to let everyone know who that camera man was"?

Corey: "Are you kidding me? Let's just say this, how fitting was it that The Show worked with the camera to win his match? Anyhow, I will reveal this man when I am good and ready, he is someone who will appeal to that camera and to this division just like I do. He is a man who will become a force in this business.... quickly, just like I did. He is a good friend of mine, one who I decided to sign to a contract while I was in charge of Rampage. So like I said.... when I'm good and ready.

COREY WALKS OUT OF THE SHOT BUT COMES BACK.

Oh, and if you think you've heard the last of my girl Alexis Laree just because Trish Stratus got lucky and beat her, forget it! Alexis will be back and she will be in that title hunt, so get that belt ready Trish! There won't be a fluke win for you next time".

COREY WALKS AWAY AS THE SHOT GOES INTO A DRESSING ROOM WHERE TRISH IS WATCHING ON A MONITOR AND IS OBVIOUSLY UPSET ABOUT WHAT COREY SAID. JUST THEN, TAYLOR MADE COMES IN.

Taylor Made: "Oh my goodness..... look at you. Listen girl, I know you're taken and I'm not here to try and ya know, what I am here......

JUST THEN, TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES IN AND BUMPS INTO TAYLOR, GIVING TRISH A BIG SMILE ON HER FACE.

Wakeman: "Is there a problem here"?

Taylor: "Uh, no problem, I'll just.... I'll just be going".

TAYLOR LEAVES AND TRISH GIVES WAKEMAN A HUG.

Trish: "Oh, I'm so glad you're here! C'mon, I don't have a match tonight, lets go see what there is to do in Chicago".

Wakeman: "Uh, let me get a rain check on that. I got something to do here first".

COMMERCIAL BREAK.....

A COMMERCIAL FOR DELL IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PROGRAMMING AD FOR THE NEW UFC REALITY TV SHOW.

RETURN FROM BREAK.....

Kurt Angle and Karam Ibrahim vs. Sam Wilde and Johnny Jeter

Wilde and Jeter provided for a very exciting tandem but Ibrahim took Angle's words to heart and was willing to do anything to get off his losing streak. But after making a rookie mistake by putting his head down too soon, Ibrahim was felled by Wilde and a swinging neckbreaker. Jeter then mounted himself on the top turnbuckle but Angle grabbed Wilde and whipped him into the corner, forcing him to take out his own partner. Ibrahim then went and picked up Jeter and delivered the "Egyptian Gold" to get the 1.......2.......3.

Match Time: 7:11

BACKSTAGE......

CAMERAS IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA SHOW CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL ENTERING THE OFFICE OF STEPHANIE McMAHON.

THE SHOT QUICKLY GOES BACK TO RINGSIDE AS INTRODUCTIONS ARE BEING MADE FOR THE NEXT MATCH.

"High Octane" Damion West and Shelton Benjamin vs. Taylor Made and Carlito Caribbean Cool w/ Terri and Desire

All 4 of these men will be involved in next week's 6 pack challenge to determine a number one contender for the King of Cable title and it was Carlito and Taylor who seemed to be bickering with each other while West and Benjamin strategized. The match played out the same way with the young, explosive duo ignoring the females and taking it to Carlito and Taylor. Octane was able to take Carlito out of the ring with a backbody drop and Shelton looked to finish off Taylor with a superkick but Taylor moved aside and the kick drilled Octane. Carlito then tripped Shelton up as Taylor rolled West up and got the 3 count.

Match Time: 13:23

Shelton tried t explain what happened to High Octane but High Octane wanted no part of it, pushing his partner for the night aside and walking away very dejectedly.

BACKSTAGE..... STEPHANIE's OFFICE.....

CAMERAS PICK UP THE CONVERSATION BETWEEN STEPHANIE AND CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL.

Stephanie McMahon: "Well it's a good idea because I know that's a match our fans would want to see. So let me get in contact with my brother Shane and see what we can do to sign that one.... okay"?

CRYSTAL GETS UP OUT OF HER CHAIR WHERE JAMAL AND ROSEY STAND BEHIND HER.

Crystal Carmichael: "If that match is signed, my boys will show everyone who really is the best tag team in the TWF".

THE SHOT FADES OUT.

RETURN FROM BREAK....

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, "JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES" BY WATERPROOF BLONDE HITS AND CHRISTIAN IS MET WITH A HOARD OF BOOS.

J.R.: "We are back here on Rampage and here comes Christian who missed out on the Royal Rumble because of a sprained ankle but to be honest King, I think he's gonna wish it was still sprained here shortly".

Lawler: "Why? Are you suggesting that Christian is scared of The Undertaker? Let me remind you of something J.R., these are world class.....

JUST THEN, THE LIGHTS GO OUT.

Ahhhhhhh"!

THE BELL TOLLS THREE TIMES, LEADING INTO THE SOLEMN SOUND OF THE UNDERTAKER's MUSIC. INSIDE OF A ROLLING FOG, HE SLOWLY MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING.

J.R.: "You were saying? These men are without question world class athletes King, I know that better than anyone. But The Undertaker will send shivers up the spine of a drill seargent".

FINALLY, THE UNDERTAKER STEPS THROUGH THE ROPES AND CHRISTIAN IS JUST IN AWE.

Lawler: "Well I can tell by looking that Christian has no shivers going up him right now.... he's ready for this"!

The Undertaker vs. Christian

Christian walked up and tried to badmouth the deadman but Taker just acted as if he was gonna turn and then fired back with a right hand. He then attacked the body and limbs of Christian with his boxer-like punching style before sending him to the corner. But he created an opening for Christian when he missed a clothesline and Christian used a chop block to slow him down followed by a reverse DDT. Christian showboated a little bit and Taker just sat up. Christian hit him with a basement dropkick but that still didn't keep him down. Unsure of what to do, Christian got in 3 kicks to the right kneecap and then went to one of the middle turnbuckles. He jumped off but Taker reacted by grabbing him around the throat with his right hand. He then delivered a ring shaking chokeslam before making the throat slash gesture and everyone knew what was to come. A Tombstone piledriver later and Undertaker crossed the arms of Christian as referee Earl Hebner pounded the mat three times to make it official.

Match Time: 4:47

J.R.: "The Undertaker follows up his runner up performance in the Royal Rumble with an impressive victory here and....

Lawler: "Hold on J.R., Travis Wakeman is in the ring"!

Wakeman: "Undertaker"!

TAKER TURNS AND LOOKS A LITTLE SURPRISED TO SEE WAKEMAN, WHO GETS RIGHT UP IN HIS FACE.

I got no problem with you putting me out of the Royal Rumble...... but I do have a problem with the way you did it. I worked, trained and studied for endless hours to get back to where I want to be, and that's competing for the title and you decided to take it all away with a steel chair. I respect what you've done in this business and I know we've had our battles in the past. But let me ask you something. How would you like to make your nickname, the deadman, a literal term"?!

J.R.: "Oh my gosh".

WITH THAT, THE TWO BEGIN EXCHANGING SHOTS AND THE FIGHT IS ALL OVER THE RING WITH BOTH MEN GETTING THEIR SHOTS IN.

Lawler: "These two are trying to destroy each other J.R."!

OFFICIALS AND SEVERAL MEMBERS OF SECURITY RUSH TO THE RING AND FINALLY PULL THE TWO MEN APART.

J.R.: "Do you know what this means King?! This to me means that Travis Wakeman has decided to join Rampage..... to battle The Undertaker"!

OFF AIR.......
