December 12, 2006

RAMPAGE GOES LIVE AND BYPASSES THE OPENING MONTAGE, OPENING STRAIGHT UP IN THE RING INSIDE THE ROSE GARDEN.

STEPHANIE McMAHON IS IN THE RING ADORNED IN A BEAUTIFUL BLACK DRESS. THERE IS A HUGE THRONE SITTING IN THE RING.

Jim Ross: "Welcome to Rampage live here on the USA and with the billion dollar princess in the ring, I have an idea where this is going"!

Jerry Lawler: "Oh yeah, and by the way, you need to refer to her as the billion dollar queen now"!

Stephanie McMahon: "Ladies and gentlemen, would you all please rise and show your respect for the new king of the TWF........... Money Mike"!

"KING OF KINGS" BY MOTORHEAD HITS AND MONEY MIKE COMES OUT TO A HOARD OF BOOS.

Lawler: "Look at this, J.R., King Michael! We are in the presence of royalty... get up"!

LAWLER GETS OUT OF HIS SEAT AND BEGINS CLAPPING.

J.R.: "Sit down, King, come on. As you can hear, Money Mike's just as popular as he's always been"!

Stephanie: "Tonight, you will all witness the coronation of the new king of the TWF, so without further adieu, let's get on with it, shall we"?

JUST THEN, MUHAMMAD HASSAN's PERSONAL ASSOCIATES MACKENZIE ROSE AND PSYCHOSIS COME OUT. PSYCHOSIS IS CARRYING A SCEPTER AND ROSE A LARGE GOLDEN ROBE. ROSE GETS IN THE RING AND PLACES THE ROBE ON THE SHOULDERS OF MIKE AS PSYCHOSIS HANDS HIM THE SCEPTER. THEN, STEPHANIE McMAHON IS HANDED A GOLDEN CROWN, WHICH SHE PLACES ON TOP OF HIS HEAD BEFORE.

Stephanie: "I know pronounce you king"!

J.R.: "Just a thought, but I'm pretty sure she doesn't have the power to do that".

Money Mike: "Thank you, thank you all so much.

THE CROWD IS BOOING AND HAS YET TO STOP.

As your king, I promise to represent Rampage as your leader and your role model. I promise to make the lives of all you peasants that much more enjoyable. And I promise to do so inside Muhammad Hassan's reformed Rampage and to carry out any and all his wishes"!

J.R.: "Oh what a crock of crap this is turning into".

Money Mike: "Now, for any unfortunate souls who decide they can't fit into my Rampage kingdom will be dealt with swiftly! So I say to you........

JUST THEN, "WANNA KNOW" BY OBIE TRICE HITS AND MAX OGDEN COMES OUT FROM THE BACK ALONG WITH CANDICE TO A HUGE POP.

Lawler: "Wait a minute..... this isn't part of the coronation"!

J.R.: "It's the man who won the tournament last year.... Max Ogden"!

Max Ogden: "Alright, alright... I get it, you love me. I love you guys too... But what I don't love, is fake kings! Yeah, you know the ones who have to kick their opponents in the nuts in order to beat them! Kings who prove they can win a match, but can't win a fight when what goes around comes back around. Yeah, you know who I'm talking about... that piece of crap right there! OGDEN POINTS AT MONEY MIKE AND THE CROWD CHEERS.

Yeah, him. Now, at King of the Ring, he beat me, whether he cheated or not, he beat me! And for that, I gotta give you props my man. But, I give you props for cheatin', and that's where the props stop! Yeah, no kudos for being the King... Nada homie! Why? Because you proved to me that you may be a great wrestler, you may own some big victories over some big name people, including myself. But, there's one thing that you don't have that I certainly do... balls"!

J.R.: "Lots of anatomy references".

THE CROWD STARTS CHANTING "YOU HAVE BALLS! YOU HAVE BALLS! YOU HAVE BALLS!" Max Ogden: Yes, yes I do! You see Mike, at King of the Ring you kicked me in the nuts thinking it would look good for you so you could win. But it just made you look like a complete idiot! Why? Because after I could finally walk, fellow men know what I'm talking about, I came down to the ring and just like you hit the Money Pit after I had been hit in the nuts, I took you out after you had been through a match. And god damnit Mike... It felt good to crack that scepter over your big ass head"!

Money Mike: "Ogden..... are you upset because I cheated or because I outsmarted you"?

Ogden: "Please, you couldn't outsmart a special Olympics basketball team"!

Money Mike: "Oh, so noe you're a comedian too? The bottom line, Ogden, is that I now where the crown you won last year except I will actually get somewhere with it! What the hell did you do as King of the Ring? You certainly didn't win the World title.... which I did"!

Ogden: "You mark my words, I will hold that title one day! But first, I'm gonna finish my business with you"!

"OBIE TRICE" HITS AGAIN AND OGDEN AND CANDICE JUST LOOK ON AT MIKE AND STEPHANIE.

Money Mike: "Somebody come out here and remove this peasant from my arena...... now"!

AS MONEY MIKE CONTINUES TO YELL FOR OGDEN TO BE REMOVED, THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.....

A COMMERCIAL FOR TACO BELL IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A USA PROGRAMMING AD.

RETURN FROM BREAK...... MUHAMMAD HASSAN's OFFICE......

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, CAMERAS SHOW KENNY ENTER THE OFFICE OF MUHAMMAD HASSAN.

Kenny: "Hassan"!

Muhammad Hassan: "Ah, the leader of the male cheerleaders, what can I do for you"?

Kenny: "No, I've ditched those guys, the Spirit Squad is no more. You are looking at Ken Doane and if you'll give me the chance, I want the oppurtunity to shine hear on your reformed Rampage"!

Hassan: "I like the sound of that. How about I put you in a match tonight against someone who doesn't want to be part of my reformed Rampage...... Batista".

DOANE GETS A WORRIED LOOK ON HIS FACE AS THAT's CLEARLY NOT WHAT HE EXPECTED.

THE SHOT IS SENT TO THE RING WHERE PAUL HEYMAN IS STANDING ALONG WITH JOE COREY WHILE "LYING FROM YOU" PLAYS.

J.R.: "We're back on Rampage and something tells me Kenny, excuse me, Ken Doane, just got more than he bargained for"!

Lawler: "Well it looks like Paul Heyman's about to address this crowd, J.R., let's see what he has to say"!

THE MUSIC IS CUT OFF AS HEYMAN GETS SET TO ADDRESS THE CROWD.

Paul Heyman: "At the King of the Ring, you fans were witness to a travesty of justice that was worse than the one we saw years ago in Montreal. My client was moments way from reviving the ECW Championship when he was screwed out of the title by Rob Van Dam and his group of buddies that showed up. That is why right now, on behalf of my client, I am chall…

Joe Corey: (ripping the mic from Heyman's hands) "Shut the hell up Paul! You are not going to be doing anything on behalf of mE for the time being! I told myself that I was not going to fall under your spell. I wasn’t going to drink your Kool-Aid. Yet, I let you convince me to bring back your vision of ECW! So I went after Rob Van Dam, the man who was the face of your promotion. And where did that get me, attacked by a group of your former ECW “originals”. RVD had Tommy Dreamer, Sabu, and the Sandman as his backup, and who did you get me? 911 and Justin Credible? What kind of control do you have over anything ECW if that is the best that you can get me for backup? Well you know what, that is all over now. I am not doing a damn thing to revive YOUR ECW! I am going to do everything in my power to create MY ECW! I could care less about the hardcore revolution. What I care about is what ECW represented. I care about the innovation, the take no crap attitude, the determination one needs to take what they deserve. That is what I am going to create, and once I find the right people, they will be right by my side to make it happen. However, before I can create my revolution, I have to destroy yours! That is what I am going to start tonight. First I am going to take out your “originals”, starting with Tommy Dreamer. Then I am going to take out RVD and take what is rightfully mine, the ECW World Championship! Then, and only then, will my revolution start to take shape, and no one will be able to stop it"!

Heyman: "Joe, Joe, you've got to reconsider this. I can.........

JUST THEN, TOMMY DREAMER's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP.

Lawler: "Here he comes"!

J.R.: "Well we know that Tommy Dreamer is regularly contracted to the SlaughterHouse division but he has been invited here tonight as a special guest of Rob Van Dam to take on Joe Corey"!

Lawler: "Look at this.... Corey's not gonna waste any time"!

RIGHT AS DREAMER SLID INTO THE RING, COREY ATTACKED HIM AND THE BELL SOUNDED TO START THE MATCH.

"The Show" Joe Corey w/ Paul Heyman vs. Tommy Dreamer

Looking to send a quick yet powerful message, Corey beat Dreamer down with kicks and punches, not allowing him to get up. But a surge of adrenaline from Dreamer allowed him to take Corey to the mat with a double leg before laying into him with rights and lefts. Once on their feet, Dreamer tagged Corey with 2 more right hands before bouncing off the ropes and dropping him with a clothesline. Dreamer let out a passionate scream and the fans responded in cheer. Dreamer then set his sights on Heyman and with his eyes the size of saucers, Heyman tried to run away. But Dreamer gave chase, only to run right into a clothesline from Corey who had rolled out of the ring. Corey then pulled Dreamer up and threw him hard into the ring steps, knocking them over in the process. Dreamer got up but Corey grabbed him and tossed him into the ring before mercilessly beating him with punches and knees to the head. After locking in a dragon sleeper, Corey tried to scissor his legs around Dreamer which probably would've spelled the end of the match, but Dreamer slipped under his arm and elbowed his way out. Corey got up and was kicked in the stomach before Dreamer pulled him in for his DDT. But Corey escaped and swung Dreamer right into a kick to the abdomen of his own before loading him up and delivering the "Showstopper" to get the 1........2........3.

Match Time: 7:08

Lawler: "Chalk one up for Joe Corey and his revolution"!

J.R.: "Well he made his plans clear before the match and began his quest to carry through on them successfully"!

AS "LYING FROM YOU" PLAYED AGAIN, COREY LEFT THE RING WITH HEYMAN FOLLOWING AND HEYMAN's DEMEANOR SEEMED TO HAVE DRASTICALLY CHANGED AS NOW, HE HAD A HUGE SMILE ON HIS FACE.

Lawler: "Well his vision, as he called it, is already more successful than Paul Heyman's"!

BACKSTAGE......

TATANKA IS SHOWN BACKSTAGE WHEN HE IS APPROACHED BY A PRETTY YOUNG FEMALE, BUT SHE DOESN'T LOOK PLEASED.

Tatanka: "Can I help you"?

Woman: "Probably not, I wouldn't want your help. My name is Luyu Dawnstar and I'm a member of the Lakota Tribe. Do you remember when you were welcomed in as one of us, into the Lakota tribe, in that private ceremony? Do you remember the words you said, the promises you made? And then, you sell out to some fake Ted Turner wanna be for some money? And a shot at a title you couldn't even win? Well on behalf of my people, you make me sick and I hope that........

Tatanka: "Look, Luyu, whatever the heck your name is. I don't have time for this. Save your speech for someone else, okay? You have no idea who I am or what I'm about".

TATANKA WALKS AWAY BUT LUYU IS DEFINITELY NOT SATISFIED.

A NEW ENTRANCE THEME HITS AND KEN DOANE MAKES HIS WAY OUT WITH AN ALL NEW LOOK.

J.R.: "Well here comes the man who we once knew as Kenny, now referred to as Ken Doane and it sounded to me like he has no problem with Muhammad Hassan's reformed Rampage".

Lawler: "Well Hassan put him in this match but I don't think it was what he wanted"!

"I WALK ALONE" BY SALIVA PLAYS AND THE FANS ERUPT AS BATISTA COMES OUT AND PYRO GOES OFF EVERYWHERE ON THE STAGE.

J.R.: "And I can't say that I blame him for that! He's gotta get in there with the animal"!

Lawler: "But look at it this way, J.R., suppose Ken Doane can defeat Batista here, imagine what that would do for him?! What is he, twenty years old"?!

J.R.: "He sure is and he has a tremendous future ahead of him but he has a tall, tall order in front of him tonight".

Ken Doane vs. Batista

Wrestling his first match outside of the Spirit Squad, Ken Doane really raised his game as he used his quickness and sheer athletic ability to take Batista to the limit. After a dropkick to the right knee, Kenny hit a flipover neckbreaker followed by 2 big elbow drops. He made a cover but Batista was easily up at 2. Doane shot Batista to the corner and ran in, jumping onto the middle turnbuckle. But Batista grabbed him and set him on the top rope before grabbing him by the neck and shoulders and launching him across the ring. Batista then charged across the ring with a big time clothesline. He then used 2 elbows of his own, before pulling him up but Doane got a shot into his abdomen before popping up with a jump kick to the back of the head. For the next several minutes, Doane took the fight to Batista, getting several near falls. But after using a reverse tornado DDT, Doane went to the top rope, flying off with his incredible legdrop once called the "High Spirits". He hit it with plenty of impact and made the cover. Referee Jose Mendez got down to make the count but Batista kicked out just in time! Doane couldn't believe it, going to the top rope again. He flew off but Batista snatched him out of mid air and drove him into the mat with a spinebuster. It was that type of power move the animal was looking for and after getting to his feet, Batista pulled Doane in and lifted him up for the "Batista Bomb" and the academic 3 count.

Match Time: 12:16

J.R.: "A valiant effort for the young Ken Doane, but Batista proved to be too much on this night"!

Lawler: "I just feel bad for Doane, he's gotta go face Muhammad Hassan after failing in this chance he was given"!

"I WALK ALONE" PLAYED AND BATISTA STAYED IN THE RING, PLAYING TO THE CROWD AS DOANE SLOWLY HOBBLED BACK UP THE RAMP.

J.R.: He's just got some learning to do, that's all and if he's smart, he won't try to impress Muhammad Hassan any further"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

COMMERCIALS FOR THE PLAYSTATION 3 AND ONE FOR VERIZON WIRELESS ARE SHOWN.

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

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, CAMERAS CATCH A CONFRONTATION BETWEEN CHARLIE HAAS AND MACKENZIE ROSE.

Charlie Haas: "Hey man, what the hell"?!

Mackenzie Rose: "Look, Charlie, I don't need this right now".

Haas: "You don't need what? You won't return my phone calls, you've been avoiding me at all the shows, what the hell happened man? We used to be tight, and now, you've given in to that son of a bitch Hassan"?!

JUST THEN, MUHAMMAD HASSAN COMES UP WITH PSYCHOSIS.

Hassan: "Well, Charlie, it's good to know how you feel about me, considering I control your fate here on Rampage. That's why tonight, you will face Mackenzie Rose one on one".

Haas: "Fine"!

HAAS WALKS AWAY

Hassan: "And Psychosis, I fully expect you to take care of Travis Wakeman later tonight. If not, I've got a lot of laundry that needs to be done".

VISCERA's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION.

J.R.: "There you have the world's largest pair of pajamas".

Lawler: "Hopefully Hassan's not talking about those when he tells Psychosis he has a lot of laundry to do, those would take a week to wash"!

J.R.: "We just found out that one time tag team partners Charlie Haas and Mackenzie Rose will meet in action tonight but right now, Viscera will take on Taylor Made and I heard through the grapevine, King, that Big Vis was tryin' to put the moves on Taylor's new Taylorette earlier today".

"LIKE A PIMP" BY DA BAND PLAYS AND OUT COMES TAYLOR MADE ALONG WITH THE GORGEOUS KELLY TO A MOSTLY POSITIVE REACTION.

Lawler: "Well can you blame him, J.R.? Look at this girl! She's beyond hot"!

J.R.: "Beyond hot, huh? Well this will be the first time Taylor Made has had her in his corner for a match, so let's see how he does"!

Viscera vs. Taylor Made w/ Kelly

The bell rang and Viscera could not take his eyes off of Kelly so Taylor walked up and slapped him in the face. Viscera responded by piefacing Taylor to the mat. Taylor got up and ducked a clothesline before kicking Vis in the back of each leg. After a few shots to the head, Taylor hit the ropes and caught the near 500 pounded with a flying forearm. Viscera teetered back and forth, looking like he was about to go down. So Taylor went to the middle turnbuckle, coming off with a flying axe handle. He hit Viscera right between the eyes, but it still didn't take him down. Taylor hit the ropes again but Viscera was waiting with a swinging sideslam, driving Taylor into the mat. He whipped Taylor into the corner, ready to squash him with an avalanche when Kelly got on the apron, turning around for Viscera to get a look. Viscera's eyes looked like they were going to pop out of his head. But he turned his focus back to his opponent, running in. But Taylor moved out of the way and was able to roll the big man up, using his own momentum against him to get the 3 count.

Match Time: 4:40

J.R.: "What a big win that is for Taylor, defeating the five hundred pound Viscera like that"!

Lawler: "I hope we get to see Taylor Made out here every week, J.R., I like this guy"!

J.R.: "Yeah, I wonder why. But I think it's safe to say we are witnessing an all new Taylor Made right before our eyes".

BACKSTAGE......

TED DIBIASE IS SHOWN IN A ROOM WITH A BLONDE WOMAN. THEY ARE TALKING WHEN THEY GET A KNOCK ON THE DOOR.

Ted Dibiase: "Uh, can you get that for me?

THE WOMAN WALKS OVER AND OPENS THE DOOR, MARK HENRY ENTERS.

Ah, Mark Henry, how ya doin' big man"?

Mark Henry: "I'm doin' good, I'm feelin' good. (He looks the woman up and down)

Dibiase: "Oh, allow me to introduce you to the new Treasurer of the Million Dollar Corporation, Ms. Jillian Hall".

Henry: "Pleased to meet you. But I came by tonight to let you know that what I did at King of the Ring was just a sample of what I plan to do here in the very near future. And tonight, I plan on collecting on that hundred grand".

Dibiase: "Sounds good to me".

THE SHOT SHIFTS BACK TO THE RING.

Mackenzie Rose vs. Charlie Haas

As the match started, it seemed like Haas was still trying to get through to Rose. But Rose drilled him with a right hand that answered all of Haas' questions. Haas fired back but Rose responded with a kneelift before taking him and ramming him face first into the top turnbuckle. After a backdrop suplex, Rose yelled "Come on Charlie"! Rose pulled him up and whipped him to the corner but Haas was waiting with a back elbow before catching him with a dropkick. Haas got to his feet and rocked Rose with a european uppercut before whipping him to the ropes and running over him with a clothesline. Haas was all fired up but when he turned around, Rose used a low blow right in front of referee Chad Patton, who called for the bell.

Match Time: 3:48

J.R.: "Mackenzie Rose has decided to get himself intentionally disqualified here and I'm with Charlie Haas, what the heck's gotten into this guy"?!

Lawler: "Oh look out, J.R., it doesn't look like he's finished with Haas"!

ROSE CAME INTO THE RING WITH A STEEL CHAIR, CRACKING IT TWICE AGAINST THE BACK OF HIS FORMER FRIEND AND TAG TEAM PARTNER. THE CAMERA GOT IN CLOSE ON ROSE, WHO HAD A VERY EVIL LOOK IN HIS EYES.

J.R.: "Oh what a shot! What the hell did Charlie Haas do to deserve that"?!

Lawler: "Well it's clear that Mackenzie Rose has gone down a dark road and there's only one person to blame for that...... Muhammad Hassan"!

J.R.: "Well I hope Hassan is proud! He's taken a guy who had tremendous upside and a great future here on Rampage and turned him into a heartless son of a bitch"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

A COMMERCIAL FOR VONAGE IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR GUINNESS BEER.

RETURN FROM BREAK..... HASSAN's OFFICE.....

AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, CAMERAS SHOW A SHORT, BUT FAIRLY WELL BUILT MAN WITH LONG HAIR IN MUHAMMAD HASSAN's OFFICE. HE IS LOOKING INTENTLY AT THE PICTURES ON THE WALL WHICH ALL DEPICT SOME SORT OF ISLAMIC FIGUREHEAD. JUST THEN, HASSAN ENTERS THE OFFICE, SURPRISED TO SEE THE MAN.

Hassan: "Excuse me, who the hell are you"?

Man: "Oh, I'm Lenny Armstead, the newest superstar here on Rampage".

Hassan: "Right, I've heard a lot about you Lenny. I've heard you're a cocky young man".

Armstead: "Some people may feel that way, but I've heard plenty about you to. Would you like me to get into that"?

Hassan: "Lenny, there is only one real question here on Rampage and that is, are you willing to participate in my idea of a reformed Rampage"?

Armstead: (hesistantly) "Uh, yeah, sure".

Hassan: "Good, we will be in touch then".

ARMSTEAD TAKES ONE MORE LOOK AT A PICTURE ON THE WALL BEFORE LEAVING THE OFFICE.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" HITS AND THE ENTIRE MILLION DOLLAR CORPORATION COMES DOWN THE RAMP TO PLENTY OF BOOS. TED DIBIASE LEADS THE WAY AS HE IS FOLLOWED BY I.R.S. AND TATANKA, WHO HAS THE MILLION DOLLAR TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. JILLIAN HALL TRAILS THE TRIO.

Lawler: "Take a good look at that Million Dollar title, J.R., back with it's rightful owner".

J.R.: "Well it took plenty to get that thing away for Shelton but with all the advantages Tatanka had in that match, Muhammad Hassan should've just taken the damn thing and handed it to him himself"!

"AIN'T NO STOPPIN' ME NOW" IS HEARD, FOLLOWED BY A LOUD CHEER AND SHELTON BENJAMIN COMES OUT, READY FOR ACTION.

Lawler: "I can't believe this guy, he just never goes away"!

J.R.: "If not for I.R.S., he may still have that Million Dollar title but a briefcase to the head, a loaded briefcase at that, did him in and now tonight, Shelton is out here looking for revenge"!

Lawler: "Well I know for a fact that I.R.S. is one tough customer so Shelton's hope for revenge might turn into a big nightmare for him here tonight"!

Shelton Benjamin vs. Irwin R. Schyster w/ The Million Dollar Corporation

I.R.S. started the match attacking Shelton as he got into the ring. Schyster rocked the former Million Dollar champion with right hands and forearms to the back of the head. Off an irish whip, he dropped him with a back elbow before delivering two of his trademark sweeping elbow drops. Schyster then pulled Shelton up and went for an irish whip but had it reversed. Shelton then used a leapfrog before throwing a kick as I.R.S. came off the other side. But I.R.S. caught his foot only to have it turn into the dragonwhip kick. From there, Shelton went to the apron and used the ropes to slingshot himself into the ring and take out the tough tax man with a clothesline. That led to Shelton pulling him up and delivering the T-Bone suplex to get the 1.........2......., but Tatanka came into the ring, breaking up the pinfall with a shot to the back of the head using the Million Dollar title. Referee Jack Doan called for the bell, disqualifying I.R.S. but Tatanka was all over Benjamin.

Match Time: 4:17

J.R.: "Tatanka is all over Shelton Benjamin! This is just not right, it's three on one"!

Lawler: "Four on one now, it looks like Jillian's gonna get in on this"!

AFTER INCAPACITATING BENJAMIN, TATANKA HELD HIM UP SO JILLIAN COULD GET SOME SHOTS IN. AFTER 3 SLAPS TO THE FACE, A SLIGHT CHEER WAS HEARD FROM THE FANS AS LUYU DAWNSTAR RAN OUT AND THE CORPORATION QUICKLY GOT OUT OF THE RING.

Lawler: "What the heck is she doing out here"?!

J.R.: "Luyu Dawnstar made it clear earlier this evening that she didn't appreciate the way Tatanka spit in the face of his people, namely the Lakota Tribe! Maybe she's taken offense to the entire Million Dollar Corporation"!

Lawler: "Well she may have, but as we well know, J.R., Ted Dibiase's money is the number one resource! There's no fighting it"!

BACKSTAGE....

THE SHOT SHIFTS BACKSTAGE AND SHOWS TODD GRISHAM IN A HURRY, CATCHING UP WITH MONEY MIKE AND STEPHANIE JUST BEFORE THEY ARE ABOUT TO LEAVE THE ARENA.

Todd Grisham: "Money Mike, can I get a word with you"?

Money Mike: "Wipe that stupid look off your face before I do it for you, Todd! You're ugly! But I know what you want to ask me about...... Max Ogden! Ogden, if you know what's good for you, you'll step out of the way and show the King of the TWF the respect he deserves! If not, I will have no problem embarrassing you like never before"!

TRINITY's MUSIC HITS AND SHE COMES OUT TO A VERY FAVORABLE RESPONSE.

J.R.: "The Women's title will be on the line here momentariy and our cameras caught a moment between the champion and the challenger earlier today, King, take a look".

EARLIER TODAY

ASHLEY K. IS SHOWN IN THE BACK TALKING ON A CELL PHONE WHEN TRINITY COMES UP.

Trinity: "Do you have a minute"?

Ashley: "Oh sure".

ASHLEY PUTS THE PHONE DOWN

Trinity: "I just thought it was nice that you were able to squeeze your way out of that Spirit Squad sandwich long enough for me to take your title tonight, see you out there".

BACK TO LIVE ACTION, THE SPIRIT SQUAD THEME HITS AND ASHLEY K. COMES OUT WITH AN UPSET LOOK ON HER FACE. THE WOMEN's TITLE IS AROUND HER WAIST AND THE CROWD BOOS HER ALL THE WAY TO THE RING. CAMERAS FIND A SIGN IN THE CROWD THAT SAYS "ASHLEY, MIND IF I STAND IN LINE"?

Lawler: "Now was that uncalled for or what? Trinity didn't need to go and say that".

J.R.: "Just a little pre-match verbal spar, King, that's all. And if her previous success over on SlaughterHouse is any indication, Trinity is destined to win this title and tonight could be the night"!

TWF Women's Title Match

Challenger: Trinity vs. Ashley K.

The match started and Trinity looked very confident as the crowd got behind her to start things off. Trinity locked up with Ashley and quickly whipped her to the mat with an armdrag, and then another. Trinity then threw a spinning heel kick but Ashley ducked and used a great legsweep to take her off her feet. After a standing moonsault, Ashley made the cover but Trinity was easily up. Ashley pulled her up by the hair and whipped her across the ring by it before lashing into Trinity verbally, words the camera could not decipher. Ashley went to pull her up but Trinity countered with a small package and very nearly won the title. Both women were on their feet and Trinity punished Ashley with kicks to the body before whipping her to the ropes. But when she went for a hurracanrana, Ashley countered with a sitdown powerbomb to get the 1.......2........., but Trinity rolled her left shoulder off the mat. Ashley waited for Trinity to get up and then she tried to whip her to the corner, but it was reversed. Trinity ran in but Ashley backdropped her over the top rope. Trinity landed on the apron and then drove her shoulder into the abdomen of the Women's champ before bringing herself back into the ring with a sunset flip. But she sat down the shoulders of Trinity to block the move and then grabbed the middle ring rope, something referee Scott Martin never saw as he registered the 3 count.

Match Time: 5:36

Lawler: "She got her.... Ashley's still the champ"!

J.R.: "An underhanded move by Ashley and unfortunately, the referee never saw it"!

BACKSTAGE..... HASSAN's OFFICE.....

HASSAN IS AT HIS DESK WHEN WILLIAM REGAL AND J.J. RAMPLIN COME IN. RAMPLIN SLAMS HIS FIST ON THE DESK.

Hassan: "Whoa..... calm down! What the hell is your problem"?!

J.J. Ramplin: "My problem? My problem is the fact that the best young athlete in the TWF.... me, was left off the King of the Ring altogether! Now, I realize that I lost that match to Jason Oliver, but I never got another chance at him and we all know I can beat him"!

Hassan: "J.J., I know that both you and Regal are willing to work under the new terms I have set for Rampage, so you will have success. So how would you feel about removing a little.... thorn in my side"?

REGAL CLOSES THE OFFICE DOOR AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR DOLE BANANAS IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY AN AD FOR THE NFL NETWORK, FEATURING SAN FRANCISCO VS. SEATTLE ON THURSDAY NIGHT AND DALLAS VS. ATLANTA ON SATURDAY NIGHT.

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

As Rampage returns, Kristal is standing with Rob Storm who is in street clothes and has his King of Cable title over his shoulder.

Kristal: “I am here with the King of Cable champion Rob Storm, you asked for this time, so what do you have to say"?

Rob Storm: “What do I have to say you ask me? What do I have to say”! I AM KING OF CABLE ARENT I, SO LET ME ASK YOU THIS QUESTION, WHY THE HELL AM I NOT ON THIS SHOW?! No don’t answer that, I'll tell you why, as much as Muhammad Hassan can help, there’s still those stupid Americans upstairs calling the shots, who do I mean? Well this country is run by an idiot that should be in a circus, not the White House! He's one of the most powerful people In the “free” world and I use free very lightly. He was asked if the war in Iraq was going well, and guess what he said, he said no. Of course it's not going well you stupid son of a bitch! You only went in there for their oil! Let me tell you another thing… well who do we have here"?

Jason Oliver comes into view and he is wearing a red shirt with a yellow lightning bolt on the back, black pants and a white toque with a red maple leaf in the center.

Jason Oliver: “Hey Lance, (crowed pops while Rob gets angry) if you can get serous for a moment, I have a question to ask you Lance, what am I wearing on my head?”

Storm: “It’s a toque.".

Oliver: “Damn rights it’s a toque Lance, not a beanie, a toque and I'll tell you why it’s a toque, because we're both Canadians and when I hear you saying all this crap about how America has no clue what they're doing and whining and complaining, I think of those kids back in Vancouver, B.C., Red Deer, Alberta and all the way back to Thornhill, Ontario, and they see guys like you, Edge and that jackass Dustin Kash, and they think that the TWF is full of Canadian jackoffs and that is just wrong.”

Storm: "It’s people like you that sicken me, people that live In a rose tinted view of the world, you of all people come from my country should be able to see what this country does wrong. Are you that blind or are you just like these people in Portland that are just ugly and fat!”

Oliver: "Come on Lance, that’s not…

Storm: “Shut up, my name is Rob Rob Storm not Lance and I am the King of Cable Champion, just who in the holy hell do you think you are"?!

Oliver:"Ffor you and everyone that doesn’t know, my name is Jason Oliver and for those who don’t think I am the real deal, take a long hard look at me and start freaking out because I'm the reason Lance Storm got kicked out of Canada and Rob this is my world, you just live in it"!

Storm trys to take a shot at Oliver but Oliver blocks it and the fight is on. Several agents rush in to seperate the two men, whose tempers are both flaring.

IN ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA, WILLIAM REGAL COMES UP TO CARLITO, WHO IS CHATTING WITH JESSICA LOPEZ.

William Regal: "Well, Carlito, how are you sunshine"?

Carlito: "What's it to you"?

Regal: "Well, it's just that, after so many years in this business, it's hard for me to see such a fine specimen as yourself wasting away. Might I suggest that you possibly adhere to our proud general manager, Muhammad Hassan"?

Carlito (to Lopez): "Can you excuse me, for just a second".

Jessica Lopez: "Sure".

CARLITO TAKES A BITE OF APPLE BUT JUST AS HE's ABOUT TO SPIT IT IN REGAL's FACE, HE IS ATTACKED FROM BEHIND BY J.J. RAMPLIN. REGAL GETS IN A FEW KICKS AS THE VICIOUS ASSAULT CONTINUES. LOPEZ IS TERRIFIED AS REGAL AND RAMPLIN LEAVE CARLITO LAYING.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, PSYCHOSIS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO MOSTLY ALL BOOS.

J.R.: "Well it appears that we just found out who the thorn is that Hassan referred to earlier".

Lawler: "But what about that confrontation between Jason Oliver and our King of Cable? That was heated".

J.R.: "Well we've got Psychosis coming out for action here and while Hassan has given him a big oppurtunity tonight, it didn't come without a threat".

Lawler: "Yeah, the threat of doing laundry! You'd better win Psychosis"!

THE FANS COME TO THEIR FEET AND LOUDLY CHEER AS "MAKE WAY" BY METHOD MAN HITS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES OUT WITH MELINA. THE WORLD TITLE IS STRAPPED AROUND HIS WAIST AND MELINA IS EVEN INTERACTING WITH THE FANS, SOMETHING SHE NEVER DOES.

J.R.: "Our World champion may not have been on the winning side at King of the Ring, but thank God he didn't lose that belt to PrimeTime"!

Lawler: "That would've been disastrous, J.R., but so would a loss here to Psychosis"!

Non-Title Match

Psychosis vs. World Champion Travis Wakeman w/ Melina

Psychosis knew he had an uphill climb in this one, but he came at Wakeman aggressively, trading right hands with him. After a knee to the gut, Psychosis landed a flying wheel kick before just kicking him right in the face. But when he went for the kick again, Wakeman caught his foot and tripped him up, locking in a standing ankle lock. Psychosis was about to tgap out in under 1 minute, but he reached for and grabbed the bottom rope to get a break. Wakeman released the hold but continued his attack, picking Psychosis up for a side backbreaker. After 2 hard right hands to a kneeling Psychosis, he hit the ropes but Psychosis popped up with another wheel kick. After a swinging neckbreaker, Psychosis was looking good. He then shot Wakeman to the ropes and hit the other side, looking for a crossbody block. But Wakeman caught him and in a tremendous show of strength, tossed him to his shoulder which led right into the "Royal Flush" and he covered him as Melina helped referee Jim Korderas make the 1.........2........3.

Match Time: 3:47

Lawler: "Well Psychosis, get ready to wash some clothes"!

J.R.: "Wait a minute, there's Mark Henry"!

MARK HENRY RAN OUT AND CUT WAKEMAN's CELEBRATION SHORT, SMASHING A STEEL CHAIR OVER HIS HEAD. MELINA HURRIEDLY CAME INTO THE RING TO CHECK ON HIM WHEN HENRY GOT A SICK GRIN ON HIS FACE.

J.R.: "No, he wouldn't.

HENRY THEN GRABBED MELINA BY THE HAIR AND SHE LET OUT A SCREAM AS HE PICKED HER UP.

Put her down you son of a bitch"!

HENRY THEN SHOCKED THE CROWD IN PORTLAND, DELIVERING THE "WORLD's STRONGEST SLAM" TO MELINA!

Lawler: "Oh my God, I don't believe he just did that".

J.R.: "That's a woman for God sake! Get some medical attention out here"!

THE SHOT FADED OUT WITH THE CROWD BOOING AND HENRY STANDING OVER BOTH WAKEMAN AND MELINA.
