Belle Centre

Montreal, Quebec, Canada

Attendance: 12,497

April 26, 2005

RIGHT AFTER THE USA LOGO IS DISPLAYED, "ACROSS THE NATION" LEADS INTO RAMPAGE's OPENING MONTAGE BEFORE THE BELLE CENTRE IS SHOWN, LIT UP BY PYRO. THE FANS HAVE THEIR ARMS RAISED IN THE AIR, SCREAMING WITH THE POPS OF THE PYRO WHICH HAS LEFT A SMOKY ATMOSHPHERE.

Jim Ross: "We have gone north of the border and the action is as hot as ever King, a ton of action to get to tonight"!

A PROMO GRAPHIC CONTAINING THE RAMPAGE LOGO POPS UP WITH AUSTIN PYROMANIA AND STACY KIEBLER ON ONE SIDE AND EDDIE GUERRERO ON THE OTHER.

Jerry Lawler: "Hot is the perfect word for tonight's main event J.R. because Austin Pyromania is gonna face Eddie Guerrero! Pyro and Latino Heat and speaking of hot, Stacy's gonna be out here too"!

"3 MINUTES" BY 2 SKINNY J's HITS AND IT BRINGS OUT JAMAL AND ROSEY WITH CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL, WHO IS HOLDING BOTH OF THE TAG TEAM BELTS. JAMAL AND ROSEY ARE WEARING DETROIT RED WINGS HOCKEY JERSEYS, GENERATING EVEN MORE HEAT.

J.R.: "In addition to that, the new team Hollywood Heat makes their debut and Money Mike will be in action. But first, we've got tag team gold on the line"!

Lawler: "And these two guys haven't been in a good mood lately. They're gonna change that tonight".

J.R.: "They were on top of the world after WrestleMania when they defeated Strife and Bahamut but as we saw on the Main Event, Strife and Bah made up for that and last week on Rampage, we saw Rosey go down to defeat at the hands of High Octane".

AN ENGINE REVS, LEADING INTO "DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS" AND HIGH OCTANE COMES OUT ALONG WITH JOHNNY JETER.

Lawler: "High Octane got to pick his own tag team partner for this match J.R. and it looks like he's got Johnny Jeter with him! Can you imagine what these guys are giving up in size"?

J.R.: "What they lack in size they make up in agility and quickness. Besides, Damion West proved last week that size doesn't matter".

Lawler: "How many times have these guys teamed up J.R.? They're in way over their heads"!

J.R.: "I can't wait to see what you'll say if they surprise us all tonight. They might.... whoa look out"!

AS HIGH OCTANE AND JETER WERE GOING OVER STRATEGY, THE CHAMPIONS ATTACKED THEM FROM BEHIND.

Rampage Tag Team Title Match

Challengers: "High Octane" Damion West and Johnny Jeter vs. Jamal and Rosey w/ Crystal Carmichael

Referee Jack Doan tried to get things settled down but Jeter and Octane started to come back from the blindside. Jeter connected with a jumping enziguri on Jamal and Octane then ran at him but was backdropped out of the ring. Jeter then turned right into a throw up Samoan drop by Rosey and Jamal climbed up to the top rope, hitting the big Samoan splash, crushing Jeter to get the lightning quick victory.

Match Time: 1:30

Lawler: "Oh!!!! That might be a new record J.R., you didn't even get to finish your thought"!

J.R.: "Well they were obviously threatened, they had to use a sneak attack for God sake"!

"3 MINUTES" PLAYED AS CRYSTAL GRABBED THE TITLES AND LEFT WITH HER CHAMPIONS TO A LOT OF BOOS.

Lawler: "Yeah, well so much for the upset you were talking about"!

BACKSTAGE AREA....

CAMERAS GO INTO THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE JESSICA LOPEZ IS SITTING, TALKING WITH THE MAKE UP LADY MICHELLE. JUST THEN, MELINA ENTERS.

Melina: "Excuse me, I'm next. Not that I need much make up".

Jessica Lopez: "Do you have a name, or is it just tramp"?

Melina: "Oh, I'm sorry, my name is Melina. But don't worry, you won't have to see me much, I'll actually go somewhere in the TWF".

LOPEZ GETS OUT OF THE CHAIR.

Lopez: "Ugh, I'll see you later Michelle".

THE SHOT SWITCHES TO ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE STEPHANIE McMAHON GOES TO A DRESSING ROOM AND KNOCKS ON THE DOOR. JUSTIN SANE ANSWERS.

Stephanie McMahon: "I got a message, you wanted to talk"?

Justin Sane: "Yeah Stephanie, I did".

Stephanie: "Well ya know, if you want something, you come to me, I don't come to you".

Sane: "Someone was saying you were in a pissy mood with Taylor Made getting drafted to PrimeTime. But quite frankly Steph, I don't give a damn! I don't know if you saw it or not, but I just beat Shane Thompson for the second time on Main Event. He's the TWF Universal champion. So tonight, I want a title shot"!

Stephanie: "Sorry, I didn't mean to come across that way. And I agree, you deserve a title shot. So tonight, it's gonna be you, one on one, with Joe Corey, for the King of Cable title".

SANE ACTUALLY CRACKS A SMILE, MAYBE THE FIRST WE'VE EVER SEEN FROM HIM.

Sane: "That's all I wanted".

Stephanie: "Okay, just one other thing. Next time, come to my office, it's customary".

SANE SLIGHTLY LAUGHS AND JUST CLOSES HIS DOOR AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.....

A COMMERCIAL FOR McDONALD's IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR BEST BUY FEATURING THE BLACK EYED PEAS.

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

STEPHANIE IS SHOWN WALKING BACK TO HER OFFICE WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS BUT WHEN SHE GETS THERE, MONEY MIKE IS AT THE FOOT OF HER DOOR.

Money Mike: "Hey there Steph, looks like someone needs some cheering up".

Stephanie: "Not from you I don't".

Money Mike: "You're gonna have to forget about Taylor Made, he's not here anymore. But if you compare him to me, there's no contest baby. You and me......

JUST THEN, SAM WILDE COMES UP.

Sam Wilde: "Ah, ah, ah, back off. Isn't it clear this flirtation on your part is unwanted? Haven't you ever heard of a thing called harassment? The only thing you should be worried about tonight is our match Money Mike. Oh here, have one of these, it might help ya out".

WILDE REACHES INTO THE POCKET ON HIS SHIRT AND PULLS OUT A SMALL COPY OF THE BIBLE, HANDING IT TO MONEY MIKE BUT HE GIVES IT RIGHT BACK.

Money Mike: "Sorry man, I've already got a little black book".

MONEY MIKE WALKS AWAY AS WILDE IS JUST APPAULED.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, A NEW ENTRANCE THEME HITS AND A RED CARPET IS ROLLED OUT, STRETCHING ALL THE WAY DOWN THE RAMP. MELINA COMES OUT WITH THE GLAMOUROUS NEW TEAM HOLLYWOOD HEAT AND THEY ARE FOLLOWED DOWN BY SEVERAL CAMERAMEN OR PAPARAZZI.

J.R.: "I don't know about that Money Mike, he meets Sam Wilde later but folks, don't adjust your tv sets, this is still Rampage and not Entertainment Tonight"!

Lawler: "I'll tell ya J.R., I'm entertained! They rolled out the red carpet for these guys and all"!

J.R.: "This is the new team Hollywood Heat, Blaze, Mercury and Melina".

MELINA GOT INTO THE RING BY DOING THE SPLITS ON THE APRON.

Lawler: "Oh my gosh! That is officially the greatest thing I think I've ever seen"!

J.R.: "Well there's no question they're attention-getters, but let's see what they can do inside the ring"!

Hollywood Heat w/ Melina vs. Mikey Batts and Jerelle Clark (invitees)

This was one of the most impressive debuts for a tag team in TWF history as Hollywood Heat put on an exhibition of their skills, mostly innovative, rarely before seen manuevers. Blaze hit a military press into a backbreaker on Batts before landing a cartwheel-like legdrop. Mercury tagged in and brought himself in with a slingshot elbow drop before bringing Clark in after he was tagged with a suplex in which he just dropped Clark face first on the mat. Mercury then set Clark on the middle turnbuckle and climbed up with him, bringing him off with a swinging neckbreaker that the crowd really popped for. A tag was made to Blaze and Mercury lifted Clark onto his shoulder as Blaze brought him off with a spike DDT, a move they're calling the "Director's Cut". Blaze then covered Clark and hooked the leg for the 3 count.

Match Time: 6:10

THEIR MUSIC HIT AGAIN AND MELINA CAME IN, RAISING THE ARM OF EACH OF HER MEN.

Lawler: "Wow.... that's about all I can say J.R..... wow. And I'm talking about a lot of things when I do".

J.R.: "I can only imagine King. But fact is, Melina and her boys may be cocky and arrogant but they are going to be a force to be reckoned with, one way or another"!

Lawler: "Can we just see a replay of that entrance of Melina's again"?

BACKSTAGE.....

TRAVIS WAKEMAN IS SHOWN BACKSTAGE WHEN TRISH STRATUS COMES UP.

Trish Stratus: "There you are. I've been looking for you, you said you were gonna be here like an hour ago".

Travis Wakeman: "Oh sorry, I got behind".

Trish: "Well, on the serious side, I just wanted to say how happy I am that you got to stay here on Rampage".

WAKEMAN JUST SMILES BEFORE PULLING HER IN AND KISSING HER.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, CHRIS MASTERS AND MAX OGDEN ARE SHOWN COMING TO THE RING TO MASTERS' MUSIC.

Lawler: "Hey, I'm still on Rampage too Trish"!

J.R.: "And I bet she'll be right out here"!

Lawler: "Really, what does Wakeman have that I don't"?

J.R.: "The show isn't long enough King. But we are set for tag team action here as Joe Corey's two assistants if you will, are making their first of two appearances tonight".

"LOOSE" BY EMINEM HITS AND CARNEY COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP WITH MARTY JANNETTY.

Lawler: "What do you mean their first of two"?

J.R.: "Well you know they're gonna get involved in that King of Cable title match later".

Lawler: "Oh come on J.R., give Joe Corey some credit! He hasn't been the King of Cable this long for nothing"!

J.R.: "For any of you that may've missed the Main Event, Carney was able to pin Corey in a six man tag involving both Masters and Ogden".

Lawler: "But you heard Corey last week telling Carney he has no idea what he's getting himself into".

J.R.: "Yeah, so instead of taking him on himself, he's got his two cronies out here to do it for him"!

Carney and Marty Jannetty vs. "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters and Max Ogden

The powerhouse Masters got in the ring to start the match, looking to intimidate the opposition. But Carney didn't back down, jumping right into the ring and locking up with him. Masters easily heaved him into the corner and then did some flexing, showing off his tremendous physique. But he missed a running clothesline and Carney moved out, kicking him in the backs of the legs. After twisting his arm around, he tagged in Jannetty who came off the top rope with an axe handle on the arm. He then went for an irish whip but Masters reversed it and lifted Jannetty over his head with a gorilla press. Ogden tagged in and he put the boots right to Jannetty. After a vertical suplex, he made the tag back to Masters but Jannetty used a drop toe hold on him and was able to make the tag to Carney. Carney and Jannetty then combined for a double dropkick on Masters that knocked him out of the ring. Ogden came in but Carney hip tossed him and then tagged in Jannetty. They then took Ogden out of the ring with a double clothesline before Carney launched himself over the top rope. But both Ogden and Masters moved and he landed bottom first on the floor. Ogden then pulled him up by the hair and rammed him face first into the steel ring post. In the ring, Jannetty got on Masters as soon as he got back in, rocking him with right hands. He then shot him to the corner and followed in with a nice flying back elbow. Masters was staggering but he was still on his feet as Jannetty bounced off the ropes. But Masters smashed him with a Polish Hammer, the move Ivan Putski made famous and he covered him for the 1.......2.......3.

Match Time: 9:37

J.R.: "Oh what a move! That is an absolutely crippling shot by Masters and this thing is over"!

Lawler: "Now was Corey right or what?! Carney doesn't know what he's gotten himself into"!

MASTERS AND OGDEN LEFT, CELEBRATING UP THE RAMP AS CARNEY CAME INTO THE RING TO HELP JANNETTY UP.

J.R.: "Well I know the competitive, fighting spirit of Carney and this won't be the last we talk about this war".

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR ENERGIZER BATTERIES IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A PROGRAMMING AD FOR THE PGA ZURICH OPEN ON USA.

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

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, TODD GRISHAM IS STANDING WITH KURT ANGLE.

Todd Grisham: "Kurt Angle, with your win in the Choose your Destiny match at WrestleMania, you....

Kurt Angle: "Let's cut to the chase Todd. You wanna know my decision, right"?

Grisham: "Well.....

Angle: "Well fine, I'll give it to you. I can't stand to see such a disgrace like John Cena as the TWF World champion. I mean, the guy has no class. So that made my decision that much easier. I will be staying right here on Rampage to begin a campaign to get the title off of Cena! And who better to do it than your Olympic hero"?

Grisham: "There ya have it, Angle will be staying on Rampage. Back to you guys out there".

Lawler: "Alright, I like that decision! Cena better watch his back at all times"!

THE TUNE OF AN ORGAN IS HEARD AS SAM WILDE COMES OUT TO HIS MUSIC DONE BY THE PHILADELPHIA BOYS' CHOIR.

J.R.: "I'm sure Cena will be up to the challenge. Last time on Rampage, we saw the debut of the Money Pit and if not for this man, Shane McMahon may've ended up in the hospital King".

Lawler: "Well he's been sticking his nose in other people's business lately, he did it again tonight"!

"LET's GO" BY TRICK DADDY HITS AND MONEY MIKE COMES OUT TO A SLEW OF BOOS.

J.R.: "Clearly one of the most hated men in the TWF right here but King, Wilde is just looking out for everyone's best interests. Do you really think Stephanie wants to listen to the advances from this pig"?

Lawler: "Well you saw what Money Mike did with the bible he offered him".

J.R.: "Yeah, maybe that's his problem. The fact that he is an egomaniac who feels he is better than everyone and for what, cause he says he has a lot of money. There's never been any proof of that".

Lawler: "Listen J.R., I wasn't the biggest GSE fan myself, but he's in the TWF now, let's give respect where it's due, the man has talent".

Sam Wilde vs. Money Mike

The bell sounded and Money Mike came out throwing right hands. But Wilde finally blocked one and fired back with a few of his own. He then ducked a clothesline and grabbed his waist, turning it into a beautiful german suplex. A 2 count was registered but Mike got up with a hard clothesline on Wilde. He then shot him to the corner and lifted him up with a backbody drop when he came out. Mike then pointed excitedly toward a fan in the front row. He reached into the front of his tights and pulled out a wad of bills. He went to the fan and acted like he was gonna give it to her, but when she reached for it, he pulled it away. But Money Mike had wasted some time and Wilde flew over the top rope with a suicide dive, an uncharacteristic move that paid off. Wilde then rolled him into the ring and was ready to take over. After a double underhook suplex, he got the "Call of the Wilde" locked in but Mike was too close to the ropes, grabbing them to break the hold. Wilde waited for him to get up and when he did, he kicked him in the gut before whipping him to the corner. He ran in but Mike stuck a foot right in his face before exploding out with a clothesline. But the only person that went down was referee Chad Patton when Wilde ducked. Wilde then used a small package and had about a 10 count but Patton was still down. Wilde tried to help Patton up but Mike came from behind with a lowblow. He then set him up for the "Money Pit" but Wilde elbowed his way out of it. That led to the "Testament to Wilde" and it was all over. Wilde himself made the 3 count and actually had about a 20 count but Patton was just getting to his feet. Patton had a bloody mouth from the shot he took but was able to make the count. 1...........2........., but Mike shot a shoulder off the mat! Upset, Wilde pulled him up and went for an irish whip. But Mike reversed it right into his clutches and hit the Money Pit. But he didn't stop there. He pulled Wilde back up and delivered the "Bankruptcy". There was no getting up from that as Patton made the 3 count to get the win and the fans loudly booed.

Match Time: 8:18

J.R.: "Well I'll be damned"!

Lawler: "That's a new move we just saw from Money Mike and it put Wilde out J.R."!

J.R.: "Well if I was Wilde, I'd be downright ticked off because he had this match won! Things like this are only gonna increase the size of Money Mike's ego"!

BACKSTAGE......

CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW REY MYSTERIO TALKING TO STEPHANIE McMAHON.

Rey Mysterio: "Well I guess that's it, I just wanted to stop by and say that I'm thrilled to be on Rampage now".

Stephanie: "Well that's what.....

JUST THEN, A VOICE SAYS "LEMME HOLLA AT YA PLAYA", IT's TEDDY LONG.

Teddy Long: "Ah, Rey Mysterio. So you're happy to be here huh? Well let me explain the first rule of Rampage to ya playa. Steer clear of Mount Morgan, if ya know what I'm sayin'"!

Mysterio: "Am I supposed to be scared or something? Listen Teddy, there may not be a Lightheavyweight division here on Rampage, but I look at it like this. That just gives me a chance to prove I can compete with anyone. And as far as guys like Matt Morgan are concerned, I have a philosophy about them. The bigger they are........ the harder they fall".

MYSTERIO WALKS AWAY AS LONG JUST SHAKES HIS HEAD.

IN ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA, TODD GRISHAM IS WITH RICK CLARK.

Grisham: "Folks I am here with another new member of the Rampage division, Rick Clark. Mr. Clark, what do you expect the competition to be like here on Rampage"?

Rick Clark: "Well I'll tell ya one thing, I won't have to have some woman come up and tell me how happy they are that I'm here! That made me sick earlier! So I want to make an impact and I want to make an impact tonight! Travis Wakeman, if you and that slut can quit playing house for a few minutes, why don't you meet me inside that ring... tonight"!

"FIGHT SONG" BY MARILYN MANSON, THE NEW THEME SONG FOR JUSTIN SANE HITS AND HE COMES OUT, LOOKING QUITE PREPARED.

J.R.: "Can you believe what we just heard? Rick Clark is definitely trying to make a quick impact, talking to Wakeman like that"!

Lawler: "Except I agree with everything he just said, well except for Trish being a slut"!

J.R.: "King of Cable title about to be defended here but before the champion comes out, let's take a look at what happened at the most recent SlaughterHouse taping.......

FOOTAGE FROM LATEST SLAUGHTERHOUSE TAPING........

Jesse Steele: At Tag Wars, we will have names drawn and those drawn will be partners in tag team matches where the winners will advance and end the partnership in an over the top rope battle royal.

Once again Santana translates.

Steele: And the winner get's this, Christy!

Hemme opens a ring box containing one of the most extravagent looking rings ever seen on TWF tv which says "TWF Tag Wars champion in diamonds".

They are quickly interrupted by unfamiliar music when Shawn Stasiak makes his way out as Steele tells Santana and Christy to leave but only Santana does.

Steele: Stasiak I'm kinda busy here!

Stasiak: Yeah, you're busy promoting a fake.

Steele: Excuse me!

Stasiak: You heard me, you are promoting a guy as world champion who claims to be the flag bearer for this brand but yet he got his butt handed to him by a real champion in Joe Corey!

Steele: Now Shawn, I realize you're new here and want to make an impact but I assure you that is not.......

All of a sudden the fans begin cheering as "Voodoo Child" by Jimi Hendrix hits and Marcus Hansen comes out carrying the undisputed title and a shirt of some kind resting on his shoulder and he seemingly stands there listening to Stasiak with his head to the ground.

Stasiak: Oh look! It's the fake, the fraud, the sham, the..........

Stasiak gets cut off in mid sentence as Hansen rares back and superkicks him dead square on the chin dropping him to the mat and knocking him out. Then he merely takes the shirt which turns out to be one of Joe Corey and lays it across the unconcious Stasiak and picks up his mic.

Hansen: The diffrence between Shawn Michaels and I is that he's a forgiving man and I am not, the diffrence between you and this jackoff is that you won't get it that quickly cause I got plans for you.

Hansen finally turns to show off his stitched up face to the camera.

You hear me Corey?!

"LYING FROM YOU" BY LINKIN PARK HITS AND JOE COREY COMES OUT, HOLDING UP THE KING OF CABLE TITLE. BEHIND HIM IS ALEXIS LAREE AND THE ENTIRE ARENA IS FILLED WITH BOOS.

J.R.: "Fans, you will be able to see SlaughterHouse in it's entirety in the next couple days and judging by what we just saw, someone else is hot on Corey's trail"!

Lawler: "Yeah, tell him to get in line. Joe Corey has had more guys after him than maybe any TWF superstar ever. Does he look worried"?

J.R.: "Well he better be ready because those that saw Main Event witnessed it, Justin Sane defeated PrimeTime's Shane Thompson again King"!

Lawler: "And that's about the fiftieth time I've heard someone say that and I'm still not impressed! Let's see this guy get a win here and then maybe we can talk"!

TWF King of Cable Title Match

Challenger: Justin Sane vs. "The Show" Joe Corey

As soon as the bell rang, Sane came out very aggressively, catching Corey off guard. After knocking him into the corner, he drove a series of shoulders into his midsection. After shooting Corey to the corner, he followed in but Corey caught him with a back elbow. But rather than following up on the move, he went outside the ring to regroup. But Sane quickly took him out with a baseball slide. He then backed Alexis down, moving very close to her. But Corey came from behind with a shot that knocked him into the barricade. He then lifted him up and dropped him throat first over the guardrail. Corey then got back into the ring and distracted referee Jimmy Korderas while Alexis kicked Sane in the stomach. Sane crawled his way to the apron and pulled himself up. Corey grabbed him but Sane got in another shoulder to the midsection and came over the top rope with a sunset flip to get as close as possible to a win. Korderas just about made the 3 count. That would be the first of 7 near falls for Sane who had Corey and his title reign on the ropes. After tornado DDT, he made the cover but again, Corey just beat the 3 count. Sane could feel the title coming to him and so did the fans. He went to the top rope but Alexis got on the apron, seductively asking him over. Sane didn't hesistate to grab her and lay a huge kiss on her! But when he turned around, Corey was up with a kick to the gut and then he hit the "Showstopper", driving Sane into the mat and hooking the leg for the 1........2........3.

Match Time: 10:09

J.R.: "I don't believe it! I just don't believe this"!

Lawler: "Well believe it J.R., Joe Corey has done it again"!

ALEXIS HANDED A WORN OUT COREY HIS TITLE AND HE LEFT TO THUNDEROUS BOOS AS "LYING FROM YOU" PLAYED.

J.R.: "How many times, how many times have we seen Corey pushed to the limit, his title reign in jeopardy, and he finds a way to pull it out, usually illegally"!

Lawler: "It's the mark of a great champion J.R., he might not ever lose that belt"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

RETURN FROM BREAK... BACKSTAGE....

AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, SYLVAIN GRENIER IS SHOWN BACKSTAGE AND HE ASKS A STAGEHAND IF HE's SEEN JIMMY HART WHEN KURT ANGLE COMES UP.

Sylvain Grenier: "Oh, hey Kurt, have you seen Jimmy Hart"?

Angle: "Never mind that right now Sylvain. I was wondering if you might want to make an impact tonight, so that everyone would have to open their eyes and look at you".

ANGLE POINTS HIS FINGER TO GRENIER's CHEST.

Grenier: "Me? Well, what do I have to do"?

Angle (putting his arm around his neck): "Come with me, let's talk".

THE SHOT GOES INTO THE RING WHERE MATT CRUZ IS STANDING WITH A MICROPHONE AS "THE NEXT EPISODE" BY DR. DRE IS PLAYING.

J.R.: "What is Angle up to now"?

Matt Cruz: "Cut the music! Now the last thing I want to do is to come out here and waste time talking, but someone told me that my all time favorite baseball player is in the crowd tonight. Jose Canseco.... are you out there"?!

Lawler: "What? Jose Canseco"!

A SPOTLIGHT SHINES ON CANSECO WHO WAVES FROM HIS SEAT IN THE FRONT ROW.

J.R.: "There he is King"!

Cruz: "Ah, there he is, should've been easy to see with that greasy hair. Just kidding Jose, would you mind joining me in the ring?

AFTER A BRIEF HESITATION, CANSECO GETS OUT OF HIS SEAT, HOPS OVER THE BARRICADE AND INTO THE RING.

Ya know, I was at the World Series in '89, ya know, the earthquake series?

CANSECO NODS HIS HEAD.

Yeah, and after my family and I escaped the disaster and were on our way home, I saw you at the airport. You don't remember me do you"?

Jose Canseco: "Uh, no I don't".

Cruz: "Yeah, I was the one who asked you for an autograph and you told me to go get a taco. But let me ask you Jose, what brings you to Montreal"?

Canseco: "Well, I'm on a world tour promoting my book".

Cruz: "Oh that's right, the one that accuses everyone in baseball of using steroids. That's why you were on sixty minutes and ESPN every time I turned on my tv! How much money have you made off this thing"?

Canseco: "Well, about......

Cruz: "Ah ya know it doesn't really matter. I just wanna know what you think of wrestlers. I mean, would you say that I'm on steroids"?

Canseco: "Well, I can't imagine you can afford to go to a nice gym. So I'd have to say yes".

Lawler: "Oh my gosh"!

Cruz: "Okay, okay, that's fair I guess. But ya know Jose, with my money, I've spent my entire life learning the craft of wrestling. High school standout, former NCAA champion, rising TWF superstar. So let's see if it's been money well spent".

WITH THAT, CRUZ TOSSES THE MIC OUTSIDE THE RING AND TRIPS CANSECO UP, LOCKING IN THE "COLORADO CLOVERLEAF"! CANSECO IS TAPPING OUT LIKE CRAZY AS THE FANS LOUDLY CHEER.

J.R.: "Look at Canseco tap out! Go put that in your book Jose"!

Lawler: "I can't believe this J.R.! Matt Cruz has assaulted a former MLB MVP"!

FINALLY, CRUZ LETS GO OF THE HOLD AND CANSECO ROLLS OUT OF THE RING AS "THE NEXT EPISODE" HITS AGAIN. CRUZ LOOKS AT CANSECO WITH A VERY SERIOUS LOOK IN HIS EYES AND CANSECO GETS BACK INTO THE CROWD, ASKING TO BE ESCORTED OUT OF THE BUILDING.

J.R.: "I was shocked when I saw Vanilla Ice get the F-U about a month ago but this might top that"!

BACKSTAGE AREA.....

Todd Grisham: "With me now is Matt Hardy who was recently drafted to Rampage from SlaughterHouse. So Matt, how does it.....

JUST THEN, CARLITO AND DEREK DARKO ENTER THE SCENE.

Carlito: "Hey, hey! How come this chump gets to talk and I don't? That's not cool".

Matt Hardy: "Who you callin' a chump"?

Carlito: "I don't see anyone else standing here, do you"?

HARDY GETS IN HIS FACE BUT DARKO COMES UP, AND GETS BETWEEN THEM. MATT LOOKS INTO THE EYES OF DARKO BEFORE WALKING AWAY.

Carlito: "That's right, you go! Because here on Rampage, if you're not cool, we don't wanna hear it! And Matt Hardy, you're definitely not cool"!

RICK CLARK's THEME HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS.

J.R.: "Another superstar whose services Rampage attained at the draft were this man's. Clark is a former member of the U.S. armed forces but he turned very bitter towards the country after returning from the war in Iraq but tonight, he seems to have turned bitter against Travis Wakeman"!

Lawler: "Well it made me sick too to see Wakeman put his filthy lips all over Trish! You know how long I've wanted to do that"?!

"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES TO THE RING, STILL IN STREET CLOTHES. HE TAKES OFF HIS T-SHIRT AND IS WEARING NOTHING BUT A BAGGY GREY PAIR OF NIKE SWEATPANTS.

J.R.: "As you may've expected, Wakeman has accepted this challenge and for no other reason than Clark calling Trish a slut! I think that may be something he regrets saying very soon"!

Lawler: "Well he wanted to make a quick impact here on his first night J.R. and a win over Wakeman would do just that"!

Rick Clark vs. Travis Wakeman

Clark provided Wakeman with a tough opposition, even sticking with him on the mat. Clark was taken down with a fireman's carry but he recovered and had Wakeman in a standing waistlock. From there, he grabbed a leg and tripped Wakeman up. He used a spinning leg lock to put pressure on his knee before just sitting down on it. Clark shot Wakeman to the corner and lifted the leg over one of the ring ropes, kicking it repeatedly. Referee Jose Mendez pulled Clark away but he moved back in with a quick jab to the throat of Wakeman. He then grabbed him and whipped him to the ropes. But he put his head down too soon and Wakeman elbowed him in the back of the head before drilling him with a clothesline. After a pendulum backbreaker, Wakeman went to work on Clark's lower back. After a snap suplex, Wakeman went for an irish whip but Clark reversed it right into a heavy powerslam. But he broke the cover to go out to the apron and then up the turnbuckle. But before Clark could come off, Wakeman fell into the ring ropes, knocking him down. He then got up and grabbed Clark over his right shoulder. Many of the fans stood as they saw it coming and the "Royal Flush" was next. Wakeman drilled it and covered Clark for the 1.......2........3.

Match Time: 6:37

J.R.: "Well there was an impact alright! It involved Rick Clark's head smashing into the mat"!

Lawler: "He gave Wakeman a tough fight tonight J.R. but I don't know of anyone who is gonna survive that Royal Flush"!

"MAKE WAY" PLAYED AS WAKEMAN WENT UP THE RAMP, CASUALLY SLAPPING HANDS WITH THE FANS.

J.R.: "The legend of Travis Wakeman continues to grow and it's great to have him right here on Rampage"!

Lawler: "Who knows how long it's gonna be before we see Drew Blood in action again but any more failures from the DeadPool and Drew Blood might erase them both from the TWF"!

"VIVA LA RAZA" IS HEARD AND IT LEADS INTO EDDIE GUERRERO's MUSIC. EDDIE COMES OUT IN A BABY BLUE CUSTOM LOWRIDER TO ONE OF THE LOUDEST POPS OF THE NIGHT.

J.R.: "These fans from north of the border love Latino Heat and they are showing him that right now"!

Lawler: "Well I know two people who don't love him and they are in the ring right now"!

J.R.: "Pyromania and Guerrero's problems date back some time King, all the way back to a poll in which the fans selected Guerrero number one contender, narrowly over Pyromania. The time has come for them to finally meet one on one".

Austin Pyromania w/ Stacy Kiebler vs. Eddie Guerrero

This was a very good finale to the show as the crowd was very into the action. Guerrero kept things at a fast pace, not letting Pyromania take him to the mat. After catching Eddie with a spinebuster, Pyro stopped the bleeding and then went into a period in which he was in total control. Stacy also did everything in her power to get Pyro the win, distracting both Eddie and referee Earl Hebner. But in the end, Latino Heat found a way to outcheat them. With Stacy and Hebner arguing on the apron, Eddie went and got the timekeeper's chair. He brought it in the ring but saw Hebner about to turn around. So he threw the chair to Pyro and plopped to the mat, creating the illusion that he was hit with the chair! As Hebner argued with Pyromania and took the chair from him, Guerrero dropkicked Pyro's legs out from behind. From there, he locked in the Lasso from El Paso. In the center of the ring, Pyro fought the pain as long as he could but eventually tapped out.

Match Time: 8:54

Lawler: "That's cheating! We oughta call him Latino Cheat J.R."!

J.R.: "It was cheating in Corey's match! It wasn't cheating with Money Mike! This is fair game King! Pyro got beaten at his own game"!

GUERRERO's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE LEFT TO A HUGE ROAR, SLAPPING HANDS WITH AND EVEN HUGGING SOME OF THE FANS.

Lawler: "Ah, this is ridiculous! Pyromania needs to appeal this"!

BEFORE RAMPAGE GOES OFF THE AIR......

THE FANS CHEER AS JOHN CENA IS SHOWN ON THE TWF TRON MARCHING THROUGH THE BACKSTAGE AREA. A DOOR SWINGS OPEN AND KURT ANGLE COMES OUT FROM BEHIND, HOLDING A DUFFEL BAG.

Angle: "Looking for this John"?

CENA GOES AFTER HIM, TRYING TO GET THE BAG BUT SYLVAIN GRENIER COMES FROM BEHIND, SMASHING CENA IN THE BACK WITH A PIECE OF METAL. CENA CRUMPLES TO THE FLOOR IN PAIN AND ANGLE DROPS THE DUFFEL BAG NEXT TO HIM.

Angle: "Now that's how you make an impact".

J.R.: "My God, Angle has recruited someone to help take Cena out! Get some paramedics back there"!
