"OUT OF EXILE" BY AUDIOSLAVE PLAYS AS RAMPAGE COMES ON THE AIR ON THE USA NETWORK AND STILL PICTURES ARE SHOWN FROM EVIL INTENTIONS. THEY START WITH MYSTICAL HOLDING UP HER NEWLY WON WOMEN's TITLE THEN ONE SHOWS A SMILING JOE COREY CLUTCHING THE KING OF CABLE TITLE AND FINALLY, JOHN CENA RAISING THE WORLD TITLE WITH BOTH HANDS WHILE STANDING ON THE MIDDLE TURNBUCKLE.

PYRO EXPLODES THROUGH THE PALACE AS THE ARENA COMES INTO THE SHOT AND THEN, "VIVA LA RAZA" IS HEARD AND EDDIE GUERRERO COMES TO THE RING TO A HUGE CHEER.

Jim Ross: "We welcome you to TWF Rampage off the heels of the momentous event, Evil Intentions"!

Jerry Lawler: "And we're starting things off with a guy who was victorious at Evil Intentions, Latino Heat"!

J.R.: "Eddie Guerrero of course defeated Derek Darko and he's in a good mood tonight".

EDDIE GETS IN THE RING AND GETS THE MICROPHONE FROM LILIAN GARCIA.

Eddie Guerrero: "Que paso vatos?!

THE CROWD CHEERS IN UNISON AS EDDIE FIXES HIS EYES ON LILIAN.

Looking good mamacita!

LILIAN BLUSHES

The reason I came out here tonight is because all week long, I keep getting the question. Eddie, who is that janitor that keeps helping you out? Well, I want to put an end to all the rumors that are out there right now. So I would like to call my brother, Chavo to the ring"!

EDDIE's MUSIC HITS AND HIS BROTHER CHAVO COMES OUT TO A GOOD RECEPTION.

Lawler: "What is this guy doing J.R.? I didn't know he had a brother named Chavo"?!

J.R.: "He sure does. This is his nephew Chavo's dad".

EDDIE AND HIS BROTHER HUG IN THE RING.

Eddie: "Okay, so he's not wearing the janitor's outfit tonight".

Lawler: "What? This is the guy"?

Eddie: "That's right, my brother Chavo is the one who has been helping me out! Ya see, he owed me a few favors so I decided to let him come over to Rampage and help me with a few of my problems! Oh, and for those wondering, my brother Chavo is my nephew Chavo's dad. Ya know, the guy you see on PrimeTime"?! But anyway, I want to tell my brother.......

"I SPIT IN THE FACE OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO BE COOL" IS HEARD AND CARLITO COMES OUT ALONG WITH DEREK DARKO TO MOSTLY BOOS.

J.R.: "Oh now we've got trouble".

Lawler: "We sure do J.R., Carlito and Darko look like they're ready for a fight"!

Carlito: "Correct me if I'm wrong Eddie, but aren't you considered one of the best pure wrestlers in the world today?

EDDIE NODS HIS HEAD AS THE CROWD CHEERS.

Then why would you have to resort to using some old, out of shape chump like him to help fight your battles?! Darko and I don't forget things like that and what you did at Evil Intentions..... wasn't cool".

Eddie: "Then come do something about it essa! We're both right here"!

Lawler: "Uh oh, there goes Darko"!

DARKO WENT TO THE RING FIRST AND CARLITO FOLLOWED AND THE FIGHT WAS ON WITH ALL 4 MEN TRADING BLOWS. CHAVO TOOK ON CARLITO WHILE EDDIE AND DARKO WENT AT IT AGAIN. FINALLY, A FEW OF THE AGENTS CAME OUT FROM THE BACK AND PULLED THE MEN APART.

Lawler: "Oh come on, let 'em go"!

J.R.: "Things are getting out of hand quickly tonight King, these four men want more of each other"!

BACKSTAGE AREA......

Karam Ibrahim and Matt Cruz are walking backstage, arguing.

Matt Cruz: "I'm telling you homey, we need to work on our communication skills if you and I are gonna tear up the tag team division, like I know we can. I think you need to take a class on that or something".

Karam Ibrahim: "I think you need to go to a Quit Nagging Me Like A Mom And Leave Me Alone class".

Cruz: "Why's it got to be like that..."

Hollywood Heat and Melina come around the corner and bump into them.

Melina: "Well, if it isn't the odd couple. (smiling sweetly at Cruz and Ibrahim) Looks like you guys could really use a good manager to whip you into contenders. Too bad I already have a couple of real men with me".

Ibrahim: "What? The Hilton sisters here? I'm scared, how about you Madik"?

Blaze and Mercury look like they're ready to fight.

Cruz: "Hey, relax now, none of that. Not yet anyway. (gets real close to Melina) You know, when you smile like that at me, I don't know whether to smile back......or kick a field goal. It's called braces girl, you might want to look into them".

Blaze gets into Cruz's face while Mercury gets into Ibrahim's face.

Johnny Blaze: "You talk to her like that again, and you'll see what real men can do"!

Cruz: "Wait till they drop, SON, then try saying that again".

Ibrahim: "Tell you what, why don't you two greasy haired metrosexuals meet us in the ring, and we'll settle this like men".

Joey Mercury: "You're on"!

Hollywood Heat and Melina turn and walk away.

Cruz: "Punk Asses".

Ibrahim: "We finally agree on something".

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR THQ's "DESTROY ALL HUMANS" IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR PEPSI WITH LIME.

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

JOE COREY AND ALEXIS LAREE ARE SHOWN IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHEN STEPHANIE McMAHON WALKS UP.

Joe Corey: "Well, well, well, if it isn’t our glorious owner. What do you have to say to me now"?

Stephanie McMahon: "You have me all wrong Joe, I came to congratulate you on your victory at Evil Intentions".

Corey: "Oh, you came out to congratulate me? I see right through this whole thing Steph. You came over here because you know that there is nothing left for you to throw at me. I have faced every challenge you can think of, and I have beaten them all. I have retired people. I have beat legends. I have beat icons. And at Evil Intentions, I beat three men at the same time. Now, are you prepared to give me what I rightfully deserve, and that is my shot at the man who has never beaten me, the World Heavyweight Champion, John Cena"?

Steph: "Actually, I wanted to let you know that I have not yet decided who your next opponent will be. At this time, I am going to have to reevaluate the roster and see who deserves either a shot at your King of Cable, or a rematch for that matter".

Corey: "That’s bullsh!t Steph. You know that I am the rightful number one contender to that title. I beat John Cena to win this title for the first time, and I will beat him to unify the King of Cable and World titles. Stop stalling and give me my title shot"!

Steph: "That is where you are wrong Joe. You will not be unifying anything unless it is authorized by the Board of Directors, and in my book…

Corey: "Your book? Your book doesn’t mean a damn to me Stephanie. How about we go into my book? How about next week, right here on Rampage, I will defend my King of Cable championship against anyone you want. If I lose, then my historic title reign comes to an end. However, if I win, then you have to accept my…personal…challenge. What do you say to that"?

Corey offers his hand to Stephanie

Steph: "What do I say? I say that next week, you will defend your King of Cable championship. I don’t know yet who you will face, but believe me, with a week to think about it, I will think of a deserving challenger".

Stephanie accepts Corey’s hand.

Corey: "Oh trust me Stephanie, it will be my pleasure, but this is yours".

Corey pulls Stephanie closer and forces a kiss on her. He lets go of her, and she falls to the mat. Alexis embraces Corey and they leave with together as the fans loudly boo inside the arena.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, SYLVAIN GRENIER AND JIMMY HART ARE IN THE RING WITH HIS MUSIC PLAYING. AS SOON AS IT CUTS OUT, VISCERA's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MILD RESPONSE.

J.R.: "Can you believe the nerve of that guy"?

Lawler: "But did you hear the news J.R.?! Joe Corey's gotta defend the King of Cable title next week"!

J.R.: "Getting set for Viscera versus Sylvain Grenier here and yes King, I heard that and Stephanie has a week to mull over who to put against him but what a mountain Grenier has to climb tonight"!

Lawler: "Well Joe Corey has climbed many mountains here on Rampage! Grenier should take a lesson from him"!

Big Vis vs. Sylvain Grenier w/ Jimmy Hart

The bell sounded and the massive Vis lunged at the French Canadian with both hands but Grenier moved and tagged him with 3 right hands before hitting the ropes and connecting with a dropkick. But Grenier foolishly went for a bodyslam and wrenched his back. After clubbing Grenier across the back, Vis shot him to the corner and followed in but Grenier put a foot in his face. He then went to the middle turnbuckle and jumped off but Vis caught him with two hands around the throat before putting him down with a sitout choke bomb and then pounced on him with the big splash to get the 1...2......3 despite Jimmy Hart screaming "kick out" through his megaphone.

Match Time: 4:16

J.R.: "That splash might have busted some of the organs of Grenier and this thing is over"!

Lawler: "No mountain climbing tonight"!

JUST THEN, THE MUSIC OF MORDECAI IS HEARD AND THE FANS GO SILENT AS HIS VOICE COMES OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS.

Mordecai: "You didn't think I'd go away that easily, did you Viscera?! You see, you have violated all that the DeadPool stands for that, you must pay, and pay you will! Hear me, fear me"!

MORDECAI's MUSIC STOPPED PLAYING AND VISCERA JUST LOOKED ON, NOT KNOWING WHAT TO THINK.

Lawler: "You didn't think Mordecai was gonna go away that easily did ya J.R."?

J.R.: "After what we saw Viscera do at Evil Intentions, I didn't know what to think! But even though Viscera won that match, it looks like Mordecai's crusade will continue"!

BACKSTAGE.....

IN THE BACKSTAGE AREA, STEVEN RICHARDS AND OLIVER WORTH ARE TRYING TO CALM DOWN KURT ANGLE, WHO HEADBUTTS A LOCKER.

Kurt Angle: "I had him! I had Cena"!

Steven Richards: "Kurt, Kurt calm down, you've got another chance tonight".

Angle: "Yeah, but it's not for the title! Ah it doesn't matter, I'm gonna beat the hell out of Cena tonight"!

ANGLE WALKS AWAY AS RICHARDS AND WORTH JUST LOOK ON.

A COUPLE STAGEHANDS ROLL A RED CARPET DOWN THE RAMP AS HOLLYWOOD HEAT's MUSIC HITS AND MELINA LEADS BLAZE AND MERCURY OUT TO MOSTLY BOOS.

Lawler: "Oh here we go J.R., the best entrance in the TWF today"!

J.R.: "These three sure know how to attract attention and.....

MELINA ENTERS THE RING BY PUTTING HER LEGS UP ON THE APRON AND PULLING HERSELF INTO THE SPLITS, SLIDING UNDER THE BOTTOM ROPE.

Lawler: "Oh my gosh look at that! I'm in heaven"!

"THE NEXT EPISODE" BY DR. DRE HITS AND THE TEAM OF MATT CRUZ AND KARAM IBRAHIM COME OUT TO A FAVORABLE RESPONSE.

J.R.: "The team of Ibrahim and Cruz will provide the opposition and I tell ya King, if these two could become more of a unit, with the amatuer backgrounds between them, the sky would be the limit"!

Lawler: "I still can't believe Matt Cruz and his field goal comment to Melina"!

J.R.: "Well Cruz has shown he won't back down from anyone since his debut and it seems to me Ibrahim has the same mindset. I mean, there's an NCAA championship and an Olympic gold medal among this duo King"!

Lawler: "But they don't have the cohesive that this Hollywood Heat does, or someone like Melina in their corner, my gosh"!

Hollywood Heat w/ Melina vs. Matt Cruz and Karam Ibrahim

Cruz and Ibrahim looked like a brand new team here and each man took turns taking Blaze and Mercury to the mat and schooling them with their amatuer arsenal. With Blaze and Cruz in the ring, Mercury tried to come in to lift Cruz up for a double team. But Ibrahim was able to knock him down with a flying shoulder tackle. Cruz then hit a swinging neckbreaker on Blaze and was able to tag out. Ibrahim came in and whipped Mercury into Cruz who hip tossed him over the top rope and to the floor. Blaze charged Cruz but was put down with a belly to belly suplex and Ibrahim then locked in a variation of the Triangle hold and Blaze quickly tapped out.

Match Time: 5:17

J.R.: "Just like that! Just like that folks, that was tag team wrestling at it's best"!

MELINA SLAPPED THE MAT IN A BIT OF A FIT AS CRUZ AND IBRAHIM SLAPPED HANDS WITH SOME OF THE FANS IN THE AISLE.

Lawler: "Look at Melina, she's beside herself! Maybe we need to change that"!

J.R.: "Well if Cruz and Ibrahim can wrestle a match like that, they'll be a very strong team here on Rampage folks".

Lawler: "Wait a minute! Speaking of tag team action, look at this note I've just been handed J.R."!

J.R.: "Oh my gosh, listen to this one folks! Stephanie McMahon has made a huge tag team match for later tonight! Carney and Marty Jannetty have challenge Joe Corey and Money Mike to a match and we're gonna have it, tonight"!

A SHOT IS SHOWN FROM INSIDE A CASINO AS A DEALER QUICKLY PASSES OUT CARDS TO SEVERAL PLAYERS SITTING AT A BLACKJACK TABLE. THE GAME COMES DOWN TO TWO PLAYERS AND A MAN LAYS DOWN HIS HAND, JACK OF HEARTS AND QUEEN OF DIAMONDS. BUT THE PLAYER TO HIS RIGHT LAYS THERE HAND DOWN AND IT IS THE ACE AND KING OF SPADES.

Dealer: "Winner, to the lady, again".

A SET OF FEMALE HANDS PULLS A PILE OF CHIPS TOWARDS HER.

Dealer: "You're good, that's four hands in a row".

THE WOMAN LOOKS UP AND SHOWS HER BEAUTIFUL BLUE EYES AND BLONDE HAIR.

Woman: "Thanks, but I'm used to the high stakes".

STACY SNOW..... COMING SOON TO RAMPAGE.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR TACO BELL IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE CASTROL GTX.

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

AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, BRADSHAW IS SHOWN WALKING BACKSTAGE WEARING HIS COWBOY HAT AND A SCOWL ON HIS FACE WHEN MYSTICAL COMES UP.

Mystical: "Hey there Bradshaw.

BRADSHAW KEEPS WALKING, NOT EVEN LOOKING AT HER AS SHE FOLLOWS.

Look, I know you're upset about your match, but I wanted to say thank you for what you did to Trish Stratus, it helped me get this".

SHE HOLDS UP THE WOMEN's TITLE.

Bradshaw: "Yeah, but what the hell did it get me? I want another shot at Wakeman and until I get it.....

Mystical: "Hold that thought, I'll see what I can do".

KURT ANGLE's MUSIC HITS AND HE MARCHES DOWN THE RAMP TO THE RING, NOT EVEN BOTHERING TO POINT HIS FINGERS UP AS HE NORMALLY DOES WHILE HIS PYRO BLASTS ON THE SET.

Lawler: "Mystical seems pretty appreciative there J.R.".

J.R.: "Yeah, she should. If not for that Clothesline from Hell a few weeks back, I think Trish Stratus would still be our Women's champ".

Lawler: "Well you talk about a guy whose not happy and that's Kurt Angle".

"DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE" BY 2 PAC HITS AND AUSTIN PYROMANIA COMES OUT TO A SLEW OF BOOS WITH THE LOVELY STACY KIEBLER.

J.R.: "He fell just a little short on his quest to become the World champion once again when he ran into a determined John Cena".

AN ENGINE REVS UP AND HIGH OCTANE HEADS OUT TO THE RING TO A FAVORABLE CHEER.

Lawler: "He got lucky J.R., John Cena couldn't do that again on his best day! It's like the guy who has been a truck driver for twenty some odd years who goes and wins the lottery and then acts like he's Donald Trump! Only to go broke a few years later cause he knows nothing about money management! (laughs) That's what I relate John Cena to"!

THE CROWD ERUPTS AS "MY TIME IS NOW" HITS AND JOHN CENA COMES OUT IN A RASHEED WALLACE DETROIT PISTONS JERSEY HOLDING THE WORLD TITLE HIGH IN THE AIR.

J.R.: "Why don't you go say that to his face King? Come on, he's an approachable guy".

Lawler: "No, my job is to call the match, not start it".

JUST THEN, "ALL GROWN UP" HITS AND STEPHANIE McMAHON COMES OUT AS THE 4 MEN GET READY FOR THE MATCH.

J.R.: "Look, it's Stephanie again".

Lawler: "What's she doing out here"?

Stephanie: "Before we get this match started, I wanted to let you guys, and all the stars of Rampage for that matter know that next week, we will have a twenty man over the top rope battle royale to decide a new number one contender for your World title Cena. Thought I'd mention it".

STEPHANIE WALKS BACKSTAGE AS THE BELL RINGS.

Lawler: "Thought you'd mention it"?

J.R.: "Boy the boss is on a tear tonight making matches"!

Kurt Angle and Austin Pyromania w/ Stacy Kiebler vs. John Cena and "High Octane" Damion West

Right after the bell rang, Pyromania and Angle attacked, with Pyro taking on West and Angle hammering away on Cena. After a german suplex on Cena, Angle went for a clothesline on High Octane but took out his own partner when he ducked. Octane then kicked Angle in the gut and put him down with a big DDT before shooting Pyromania to the corner and flying in with a yakuza kick. But Pyro moved and put Octane on the mat with a 2 handed sit down facebuster. He then helped Angle up and ran at Octane, only to be backdropped over the top rope and to the floor. Octane smashed Angle with the "Head on Collision" before tagging in Cena and then took to the air, flying over the top rope to take Pyro down with a suicide plancha. In the ring, Cena made the cover and got 1........2........, but Angle was up. Cena hit a flying shoulder tackle before reaching down and pumping up his old Reebok Pumps. But Stacy got on the apron and removed one of her high heels. She tried to toss it to Angle but Cena caught it and launched it into the crowd. Fans struggled to get to the souvenir when Stacy tried to slap Cena. He caught her hand and got an ear to ear grin on his face but Angle rolled him up from behind with a handful of his shorts and referee Jim Korderas made the 3 count.

Match Time: 3:53

ANGLE's MUSIC HIT AND HE ROLLED OUT OF THE RING, LOOKING LIKE HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHERE HE WAS AS STACY HELPED PYROMANIA UP.

J.R.: "And just like our good old Olympic hero, gotta take the easy way out"!

Lawler: "Hey security, bring me that shoe, I want it! That idiot who picked it up is just gonna put it on eBay anyway"!

ANGLE FINALLY CRACKED A SMILE AS AN ANGRY JOHN CENA LOOKED ON FROM THE RING.

J.R.: "Well fans next week, Angle can earn the chance to face John Cena again but he'll have to deal with nineteen other guys who want the same thing"!

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

CAMERAS IN THE BACK PICK UP A CONVERSATION BETWEEN STEPHANIE, MAX OGDEN AND CHRIS MASTERS.

Stephanie: "Okay guys, since you left in a fairly timely manner when I asked you to at Evil Intentions, and you didn't get involved in Joe Corey's match, I'll allow you both to enter the battle royale next week".

Masters: "Yes"!

MASTERS SLAPS HANDS WITH OGDEN AND THE TWO LEAVE HER OFFICE. STEPHANIE PULLS A CHAIR UP TO HER DESK AND IS ABOUT TO TAKE A SEAT WHEN SHE HEARS HER OFFICE DOOR CLOSE AGAIN. SHE LOOKS UP AND THE CAMERA PANS OVER TO SHOW MATT MORGAN, BEHIND TEDDY LONG.

Teddy Long: "Well since you're so generously handing out spots in that battle royale, there's gotta be room for my mountain in there".

STEPHANIE MOVES UP AND GETS RIGHT IN LONG's FACE.

Stephanie: "Teddy.... I don't like you and you know it. But because I do, I can't hold that against Matt Morgan. He has been a monster here on Rampage and I love it! Guys like him are guys I love to have on my show! So yes, there is room for him in the battle royale. But now Teddy.... get out of my office".

Long: (looking up at Morgan) "I told ya we'd be in playa".

BACK AT RINGSIDE, A-TRAIN's MUSIC IS PLAYING AND HE IS IN THE RING CRACKING HIS KNUCKLES.

J.R.: "So three men have just been entered into next week's number one contenders battle royale but right now we've got A-Train ready for action and take a look at what happened earlier tonight".

FOOTAGE BEGINS TO ROLL AND SHOWS REY MYSTERIO ENTER THE ARENA WITH A DUFFEL BAG OVER HIS SHOULDER.

Lawler: "This actually happened before we even came on the air J.R.".

REY TURNS A CORNER BUT RUNS INTO A-TRAIN WHO STARTS TO LAUGH.

Rey Mysterio: "Oh my bad".

A-Train: "Hey, that's about as much damage as you did at Evil Intentions".

Mysterio: "Don't go there man".

A-Train: "Aren't you the same little mask wearing freak that was so excited about getting drafted to Rampage because you wanted to prove you could compete with anyone? Yeah, you sure showed that alright".

Mysterio: "Look, I can compete with anyone, and if you want to find that out, I'll take your overgrown ass on in the ring tonight! Then, we'll see who the freak is".

"619" HITS AND REY MYSTERIO POPS UP FROM UNDER THE STAGE TO A GREAT CHEER.

J.R.: "Well it was that that has led to this one on one matchup"!

Lawler: "Big words from such a small man J.R.! Mysterio has to be giving up two hundred pounds to A[-Train! He could get crushed here"!

J.R.: "The only thing that Rey Mysterio is concerned with is proving he can get into that ring with any superstar in the TWF, or the world for that matter".

A-Train vs. Rey Mysterio

Predictably, Rey ran around A-Train, trying to employ a hit and run strategy. But A-Train caught one of his kicks and flipped him into the air. Rey was able to land on his feet and duck a clothesline but with his other arm, A-Train put him down with a shot to the back of the head. After an elbow to the small of the back, A-Train made a cover but Rey slid a shoulder off the mat after a 2 count. A-Train then pulled him up and shot him to the corner before following in with an avalanche splash. He followed that up with a slinging body splash out of the corner, slamming onto Rey for the 1..........2........., but that was all. The fans began to get behind Rey and after ducking a clothesline, he slowed the big man with a dropkick to the knee. He bounced off the ropes again but A-Train blasted him with the Pump Kick. Rey looked like he was out cold as he lay on the mat but A-Train wanted to do more. He picked him up for the "Train Wreck" but Rey slipped out of his grasp and used a drop toehold to put him down over the middle ring rope. He followed that up with the 6-1-9 before going to the apron and calling for the finish. With A-Train lying face down on the mat, Rey landed a springboard legdrop to the back of the head and that gave him the 1.......2.......3.

Match Time: 5:41

Lawler: "Oh my gosh, I can't believe what we just saw"!

J.R.: "Rey Mysterio just made a believer out of everyone, even the King"!

MYSTERIO's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE CELEBRATED WITH THE CROWD FROM THE TURNBUCKLE.

Lawler: "Well David did slay Goliath J.R. so I suppose it can happen. Maybe some of these Rampage superstars are gonna have to take Mysterio a little more seriously".

J.R.: "I'll say"!

BACKSTAGE......

TRAVIS WAKEMAN IS LOOKING OVER SOME PAPERWORK WHEN MYSTICAL COMES UP.

Travis Wakeman: "Can I help you"?

Mystical: "You can help me by telling me when your little girlfriend is gonna stop using the injury excuse and just admit she got beat by the better woman".

Wakeman: "Look, we both know Trish wasn't one hundred percent for that match. But I know that's no.......

Mystical: "You're right, it's no excuse. At least I didn't have to use a stun gun on her. But that's alright, cause Bradshaw wants you in the ring again and I want to shut her pretty little mouth. That's why we are challenging you two to a mixed gender tag match..... tonight"!

Wakeman: "Trish isn't even here, she had to go see a neck specialist. But if she were.......

Mystical: "Save it, I'm tired of the excuses".

MYSTICAL STARTS TO WALK AWAY.

Wakeman: "Hold on, I didn't say I wouldn't accept. See ya in the ring".

J.R.: "What?! Trish isn't even in the building"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A PROMO FOR THE JUDAS PRIEST CONCERT IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY AN AD FOR THE TWF MALL.

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

AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, MATT HARDY AND JOHNNY JETER ARE IN THE RING AND MATT HAS A MICROPHONE.

Matt Hardy: "For all you Mattitude followers out there, who have been keeping up with things lately, know that Johnny Jeter here has decided to take a dose of Mattitude and together, we are looking for more followers. So tonight, our search continues, right here in Michigan, for the world's biggest M'Fer"!

JETER STARTS LOOKING AROUND, POINTING AROUND THE AUDIENCE AS MANY FANS SEEM TO BE VOLUNTEERING.

J.R.: "This all started on Uprising before Evil Intentions and I gotta say King, these two are full of themselves".

Lawler: "Oh this is great J.R., who is it going to be"?

Matt: "You find one Johnny"?

Johnny Jeter: "Him right there, the guy that needs to shed about forty pounds wearing the Rampage t-shirt".

Matt: "Oh, I see him. Come on in here.... yeah you".

THE FAN IS ESCORTED THROUGH THE CROWD AND OVER THE BARRICADE BY SECURITY BEFORE GETTING INTO THE RING.

Lawler: "Look at this guy".

Matt: "Okay, so what makes you the biggest M'fer"?

Fan: "Well, I'm honestly a major John Cena fan, I just wanted to get on tv".

THE FANS CHEER

J.R.: "There ya go, good for you"!

Matt: "Johnny, show him what we do with people who waste our time".

JUST THEN, JETER KICKS THE FAN IN THE MIDSECTION AND KNOCKS HIM TO THE MAT WITH A RIGHT HAND. AFTER SEVERAL STOMPS, MATT MAKES HIM PULL HIM UP.

J.R.: "Stop it! He's not a damn wrestler"!

MATT PULLS THE FAN IN AND DROPS HIM WITH THE "TWIST OF FATE" AND MOST OF THE CROWD LOUDLY BOOS.

Lawler: "Well look at it this way, at least he got on tv"!

J.R.: "This is repulsive! Get those two out of here! I'm ashamed to say they're part of this company after seeing that..... my lord"!

MATT AND JETER WALK AWAY, BOTH SMILING TO A LOT OF HEAT.

Lawler: "Well J.R. we can tell the fans that up next will be Money Mike and Joe Corey, teaming together to take on Carney and Marty Jannetty"!

PROMO GRAPHICS ARE SHOWN CONTAINING THE RAMPAGE LOGO FOR A FEW MATCHES ANNOUNCED FOR NEXT WEEK.

J.R.: "That's coming up in just a matter of moments but next week, we've got some matches already announced! Eddie Guerrero will team with his brother Chavo who wants to be referred to as Chavo Classic to face Carlito and Derek Darko".

Lawler: "I still can't believe that Eddie had his brother dressing as a janitor. I just hope Carlito and Darko take out the trash next week"!

J.R.: "Well in addition to that......

A GRAPHIC CONTAINING EVERY SUPERSTAR ON RAMPAGE POPS UP.

twenty men will tangle in an over the top rope battle royale to determine a new number one contender to the World title King".

ANOTHER GRAPHIC SHOWS JOE COREY AND ALEXIS LAREE STANDING NEXT TO A SHADOW WITH A QUESTION MARK OVER HIM.

Lawler: "Yeah but then there's the big one. Joe Corey against Stephanie McMahon's mystery opponent. If Corey wins and retains his title, then Stephanie has to take his own personal challenge"!

"LYING FROM YOU" BY LINKIN PARK HITS AND JOE COREY COMES OUT WITH ALEXIS LAREE TO A VERY UNWELCOME REACTION. OVER HIS RIGHT SHOULDER IS THE KING OF CABLE TITLE BELT.

J.R.: "And here comes the man who has held that title for nearly ten months, a tremendous reign as champion".

Lawler: "And he's jumped every hurdle Stephanie has put in his path. I just can't wait to see what he has in store for her if he wins"!

"LET's GO" BY TRICK DADDY PLAYS, BRINGING MONEY MIKE OUT TO SOME OF THE LOUDEST BOOS OF THE NIGHT.

J.R.: "Well this will be the first time Joe Corey and Money Mike have wrestled as a tag team and I don't know what's going on between these two, but they seem to be forming some sort of unit King".

Lawler: "Well I'll tell ya, these two together would be just about unstoppable J.R., you saw how Money Mike handled Mysterio at Evil Intentions and I said right then and there, it's time to start recognizing his legacy"!

"LOOSE" BY EMINEM COMES OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS AND CARNEY RUNS OUT ALONG WITH MARTY JANNETTY TO A VERY LOUD CHEER.

J.R.: "Well these two are gonna try to stop them! The history between Carney and Joe Corey is well known and how close to winning the King of Cable did Carney come at Evil Intentions"?

Lawler: "Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades J.R.! What'd you say a minute ago, ten months as champion"?

J.R.: "Well he has a title defense against an opponent he doesn't even know the idenity of right here next week and unless he wants to go into the match on a losing streak, he and Money Mike better focus on the task at hand"!

Money Mike and "The Show" Joe Corey w/ Alexis Laree vs. Carney and Marty Jannetty

Carney and Jannetty hopped over the ropes and into the ring and the fight was on. All 4 men were going at it and referee Jose Mendez clearly had his hands full. There wasn't one single tag in the match as Jannetty threw Money Mike through the ring ropes to the floor but Mike tripped him up and pulled him out. In the ring, Corey caught Carney with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker before trying to lock in The Cage. But Carney fought it and kicked Corey right in the face, putting him on the mat. Jannetty came back into the ring and got down on his hands and knees as Carney got a running start and used him for a launching pad to hit the old Poetry in Motion move. They pulled Corey up for a double suplex but Mike got into the ring and pushed his partners legs back the other way, allowing him to escape the move and Mike then took Carney down with a sleeper drop. Jannetty turned and caught Mike with 2 right hands but Corey came from behind with a double sledge. He then grabbed Jannetty by the hair and tried to toss him over the top rope. But Jannetty grabbed the rope and hung on. He then backdropped Corey out of the ring when he charged at him before bringing the crowd to their feet with an Asai moonsault. In the ring, Mike was in dismay but he pulled Carney up by the hair. He shot him to the ropes and locked in a sleeper hold but Carney easily countered with a reverse sit down jawbreaker. Alexis tried to get involved, climbing to the apron, only to have Carney pieface her to the floor. As Mike stumbled around holding his chin, Carney kicked him in the gut and loaded him up for the "C-Drive". But Mike had a counter in mind, getting out of it and swinging Carney right into the "Money Pit". He hooked the leg and Mendez turned his attention back to the action to render the 3 count.

Match Time: 4:47

Lawler: "Wow!!! How good is this guy J.R., did you see that"?!

J.R.: "Yeah I saw it".

"LET's GO" PLAYED AGAIN AS COREY COLLECTED ALEXIS AND MIKE WENT AND GRABBED THE KING OF CABLE BELT, HANDING IT TO COREY. 95% OF THE FANS IN ATTENDANCE WERE BOOING BUT THE CAMERAS GOT A SHOT OF A FANS SIGN THAT SAID "COREY + MONEY MIKE= THE NEW WORLD ORDER OF WRESTLING".

Lawler: "There it is J.R., that sign says it all! Can you imagine what these two could do together"?!

J.R.: "I'd rather not. But fans don't go away because up next, Bradshaw and Mystical are gonna take on Travis Wakeman and.... someone in a mixed gender tag team match"!

Lawler: "Who is it?! It can't be Trish"!

THE SHOT FADES OUT

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

A COMMERCIAL FOR PURINA DOG CHOW IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR STARBURST.

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

RAMPAGE RETURNS WITH MYSTICAL IN THE RING.

Mystical: "And my partner..... Bradshaw"!

BRADSHAW's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT WITH THE SAME SCOWL ON HIS FACE, GLARING ANGRILY INTO THE CROWD.

J.R.: "Ya know King I find it funny that Mystical thanked Bradshaw for helping her win that Women's title but told Wakeman, to his face, that Trish needs to stop using her neck as an excuse".

Lawler: "Well you heard Wakeman, Trish isn't even here tonight"!

"MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AND THE ENTIRE CROWD COMES TO THEIR FEET TO WITNESS THE ENTRANCE OF TRAVIS WAKEMAN.

J.R.: "Well Wakeman accepted this challenge anyway King, he had to know something".

Lawler: "Wait a minute.....

WAKEMAN GETS TO THE BOTTOM OF THE ENTRANCE RAMP AND LOOKS BACK AS JESSICA LOPEZ COMES OUT.

J.R.: "Oh my gosh! It's Jessica Lopez"!

Lawler: "I would've never thought of her J.R.! We know the history between her and Wakeman"!

J.R.: "Well it seems they've patched things up because she's all over Mystical"!

Mixed Gender Tag Team Match

Bradshaw and Mystical vs. Travis Wakeman and Jessica Lopez

Mystical was able to get Lopez off of her and after a kick to the stomach, she whipped her to the mat by her hair. Wakeman tried to pull her off but Bradshaw came in and kicked him right in the face. A visible bruise could be seen on Bradshaw's side where he was stunned with the stun gun at Evil Intentions. After violently stomping Wakeman, Bradshaw set him up for the "Clothesline from Hell" but Wakeman countered by backdropping him out of the ring. Lopez then hit a wheel kick on Mystical before going to the top rope. Wakeman then grabbed her and rocket launched her across the ring. She landed on Mystical with a crossbody and referee Earl Hebner was in perfect position to make the 3 count.

Match Time: 3:22

J.R.: "There it is! I wonder if she wants to thank Bradshaw now"!

Lawler: "I just wanna know how Trish feels about this"!

"MAKE WAY" PLAYED AS LOPEZ JUMPED INTO WAKEMAN's ARMS AND THEY HUGGED TO THE ROAR OF THE CROWD.

J.R.: "She can't be upset that Mystical just got pinned one, two, three"!

THE SHOT FADES OUT WITH THE CAMERA FIXED ON WAKEMAN AND LOPEZ.
