Jerry Lawler: "We've got Mark Henry and Batista tonight, J.R. and this place is buzzing"!

"AIN'T NO STOPPIN' ME" HITS AND SHELTON BENJAMIN COMES OUT WITH LUYU DAWNSTAR TO LOTS OF CHEERS FROM THE AUDIENCE.

J.R.: "The world's strongest man has agreed to meet the animal Batista in tonight's main event but we are starting things off with mixed gender action"!

J.R.: "Well rumor has it that Jillian Hall, he new treasurer, if you want to call her that, for the Million Dollar Corporation, has been telling anyone who will listen that she can defeat Luyu one on one".

Lawler: "Well she might get that chance someday but tonight they each have a partner to rely on"!

J.R.: "Mixed gender rules apply here meaning it's men versus men and women versus women and you can see it in Shelton's eyes, King, he wants a piece of Tatanka".

Lawler: "Well there goes the bell to start the match and it looks like the divas are gonna start it off! Works for me"!

Mixed Gender Tag Team Match

Shelton Benjamin & Luyu Dawnstar vs. Tatanka & Jillian Hall w/ Ted Dibiase

Luyu was ready for Jillian, but Jillian got the crowd all riled up, refusing to lock up with the newcomer. Finally, after quite a bit of stalling, she went into a collar and elbow tie up but immediately broke it, complaining to referee Jack Doan that Luyu yanked her hair. Tired of Jillian's antics, Luyu struck the debating Jillian with a forearm to the face before two swift kicks to the midsection. Off an irish whip, Kuyu hit a very nice swinging sleeper slam but a blind tag was made to Tatanka and it may've been the only thing that saved Jillian. Tatanka grabbed Luyu's right leg but Shelton came in, meeting him with 2 right hands before sending him to the ropes for a flying back elbow. Tatanka then went for a leapfrog off an irish whip but Tatanka snatched him out of the air with a powerslam. After 2 big elbows, Tatanka was in control of the match. Knowing a tag might change their momentum, Tatanka elected to stay in the ring, punishing Shelton. But Luyu was able to make the tag by slapping the shoulder of her partner and she flew off the top rope with a crossbody onto Tatanka! He was able to catch her in mid air and he looked like he was going to drive her into the mat but Doan threatened to disqualify him, so he put her down. Jillian then charged into the ring at Luyu but Luyu came up with a quick small package to pin her!

Match Time: 7:14

But after the match, Luyu was unable to celebrate as Tatanka blasted her with a clothesline. Shelton got up and tried to get Tatanka, but he and Jillian were out of the ring in a hurry. The crowd booed loudly as the Million Dollar Corporation headed to the back with the loss, but they were still satisfied.

J.R.: "Boy I bet that made Tatanka feel like a man! What the heck has gotten into this guy"?!

Lawler: "Answer me a question, J.R.. Who was it that questioned Tatanka's motives before she ever set foot in a TWF ring"?

Shelton checked on Luyu who was holding the back of her head.

J.R.: "Everyone has questioned his motives! Everyone except people like you"!

BACKSTAGE AREA.......

KELLY IS SHOWN IN THE BACK, HAVING HER MAKE-UP DONE WHEN HIGH OCTANE COMES UP.

High Octane: "Well look at this, it's the little nineteen year old hottie that everyone keeps telling me about".

Make-Up lady: "Do I need to give you two a minute"?

Kelly: "Oh no, High Voltage.......

High Octane: "It's High Octane".

Kelly: "Yeah, whatever. I'm a Taylorette, and I always will be..... sorry".

KELLY STANDS UP FROM THE CHAIR AND TRIES TO WALK AWAY BUT HIGH OCTANE SMACKS HER ON THE BUTT. DISGUSTED, KELLY WALKS OFF AND OCTANE JUST SMILES AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK......

A COMMERCIAL FOR VERIZON WIRELESS IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE THE PLAYSTATION 3.

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

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, CAMERAS ARE IN THE OFFICE OF MUHAMMAD HASSAN. HE IS THUMBING THROUGH A MAGAZINE WHEN MATT CRUZ WALKS IN.

Muhammad Hassan: "Ah, Mister Cruz, let me just start off by asking a simple question. Where the hell did you go last week?! I thought you wanted to help out here on my reformed Rampage".

Matt Cruz: "Where did I go? I was told I had the rest of the night off"!

Hassan: "I never said..... wait, who told you that"?

Cruz: "That new Lenny Armstead guy".

Hassan: "Hmmm, it seems like we have a problem here. From now on.... you don't have the night off, unless you hear it from me"!

CRUZ LEAVES THE OFFICE AND JUST STANDS OUTSIDE THE DOOR. WHAT HE JUST HEARD DOESN'T SEEM TO SIT TOO WELL WITH HIM.

Charlie Haas vs. Psychosis

Charlie Haas was matched up with one of Muhammad Hassan's assistants and it was clear that Psychosis has completely bought into Hassan's philosophies, taking any shortcut he could in this one. But after catching Psychosis with a belly to belly throw, Haas got down on the mat and dominated him, looking like a cage fighter as he hit Psychosis in the face and back of the head with forearms. Haas was able to lock in a chickenwing but out of desperation, Psychosis reached his right foot to the bottom ring rope to earn a break. With both men on their feet, Haas hit him with 2 hard rights before bouncing off the ropes but Psychosis came up with a nice jumping enziguri. He then went to the top rope, striking Haas with a missile dropkick before coming off the ring ropes with a springboard legdrop. He made the cover but Haas was up at 2. Psychosis continued to control the match with his quickness but after shooting Haas to the corner, he flew in with a feet first flying attack. But Psychosis became tangled up in the corner when Haas moved. Haas then pulled Psychosis out and delivered the Exploder suplex for the 3 count.

Match Time: 7:06

But just as Haas had his arm raised in victory by referee Chad Patton, he was attacked from behind by his former partner, Mackenzie Rose. Psychosis then got up and joined Haas in the attack, which left Haas laying in the ring. Hassan's assistants left to some pretty loud boos.

BACKSTAGE.....

KRISTAL IS SHOWN IN THE BACK WITH MARK HENRY.

Kristal: "Mark Henry, you were challenged to a match last week by Batista and it appears you have accepted".

Mark Henry: "Batista..... what happened to Travis Wakeman last week, is exactly what will happen to you tonight! They call you the animal but tonight, I'm gonna take the animal and break his neck! Wakeman...... you enjoy that World title while you can, I have a good feeling that I will be the next World champ"!

Henry seemed to be eluding to something as he said that, before walking off.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "HIGHER" BY THE GAME HITS AND LENNY ARMSTEAD COMES OUT TO LIGHT, BUT POSITIVE CHEERS.

J.R.: "I don't know about you, King, but I have personally been waiting for this for some time now, the debut of Lenny Armstead, a young man we've heard plenty about and tonight, we finally get to see what he can do"!

A SHOT IS SHOWN OF HIS OPPONENT, DAVID ELLIS.

Lawler: "Well I don't know, J.R., this guy seems to already been causing trouble behind the scenes".

J.R.: "If I were his manager, I would tell him to stay as far away from Muhammad Hassan as he can, but the reports I've gotten of what he can do in the ring have been nothing but positive".

Lenny Armstead vs. "Blue Jay" David Ellis of Asylum

The bell sounded to start the match and Armstead offered a handshake, but a confident Ellis just slapped it away. Ellis then lunged at him but Armstead slipped free and dropkicked him in the back, knocking him in between the top and middle ring ropes. From there, Armstead launched himself over the top rope, pulling down on the head of Ellis and snapping it back with a whiplash effect. Armstead got back into the ring and began working the lower back of Ellis, really focusing in on it. After a side backbreaker, Armstead went to the middle turnbuckle and flew off with a senton bomb but Ellis showed some life by rolling out of the way. Ellis locked in a fujiwara armbar but Armstead escaped and Ellis walked right into a savat kick when he got back to his feet. Armstead went for the Sharpshooter, but Ellis was able to swing his legs and knock Armstead out of the move. After connecting with a clothesline, Ellis went to the top rope and flew off, only to be dropkicked right out of the air by Armstead. Armstead then pulled him up and drove him into the mat with a tornado DDT. From there, Armstead went to the top rope and flew off, getting tremendous height before splashing down onto Ellis before hooking the leg for the easy victory.

Match Time: 6:04

J.R.: "Oh what impact! Shades of Superfly Jimmy Snuka there, King"!

Lawler: "I can't believe that, he must've been fifteen feet in the air"!

"HIGHER" BLARED OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS BUT THE MUSIC CUT OUT AND BOOS COULD BE HEARD AS MATT CRUZ MADE HIS WAY OUT AND INTO THE RING.

J.R.: "Wait a minute, here's Matt Cruz now".

WITHOUT SAYING A WORD, AN ANGRY CRUZ JUST SHOVED ARMSTEAD, KNOCKING HIM TO THE MAT. DECIDING NOT TO LET THINGS ESCALATE, ARMSTEAD JUST ROLLED OUT OF THE RING BUT HE COULD BE SEEN TELLING CRUZ "LOOK AT YOU, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE BECOME" AS HE WALKED OFF.

J.R.: "Hard to know what to make of this situation but obviously a problem is brewing between these two".

Lawler: "I don't understand what Lenny Armstead is doing, it's like he's trying to send some sort of message to Cruz".

COMMERCIAL BREAK........

A COMMERCIAL FOR TWF FIGURES IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A USA PROGRAMMING AD FOR THE TV SERIES "PSYCHE".

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

AS RAMPAGE RETURNS, CHARLIE HAAS CRASHES INTO MUHAMMAD HASSAN's OFFICE. PSYCHOSIS AND MACKENZIE ROSE STEP UP.

Muhammad Hassan: "No, hold off, let's see what he wants".

Charlie Haas: "What I want?! I want those two sons of bitches in the ring"!

Hassan: "Charlie, Charlie, I understand your frustration, but......

Mackenzie Rose: "We'll take him on".

Hassan: "Alright, I like what I hear, you two are really coming around. Looks like you got your match Charlie and just to keep things competitive, I'll let you pick anybody in the Rampage locker room to be your partner for next week, when you face my boys in a tag team match".

Haas: "You got it"!

HAAS LEAVES THE OFFICE AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING.

"NUMBER OF THE BEAST" BY IRON MAIDEN HITS AND J.J. RAMPLIN COMES DOWN THE RAMP ALONG WITH WILLIAM REGAL TO PLENTY OF BOOS.

J.R.: "What a situation that's turned into and who's Charlie Haas gonna get to be his partner"?!

Lawler: "I don't know, but he can pick anyone here on Rampage although I don't think the list of those willing to go against Hassan will be too long"!

THE CANADIAN NATIONAL ANTHEM COMES ON, BRINGING ROB STORM OUT TO SOME HEAVY HEAT. AROUND HIS WAIST IS THE KING OF CABLE TITLE.

J.R.: "Tag team action coming up here in which two burning rivalries here on Rampage will be intertwined and here comes out King of Cable".

Lawler: "Did you see that idiot's sign in the crowd? It said Rob Storm equals channel change"!

"I SPIT IN THE FACE OF PEOPLE WHO DON'T WANT TO BE COOL" LEADS INTO CARLITO's MUSIC AND HE COMES OUT TO A PRETTY GOOD CHEER.

J.R.(laughing): "Sorry, but I did find some humor in that. Here comes Carlito who has been a target of Hassan since Hassan became GM and J.J. Ramplin, a willing participant in the reformed Rampage, has committed two unprovoked attacks on him".

Lawler: "And tonight Carlito's gonna get his chance for redemption"!

THE CROWD COMES TO THEIR FEET, CHEERING AND APPLAUDING AS "SUPERSTAR" BY SALIVA PLAYS AND JASON OLIVER COMES OUT, RUNNING TO THE RING.

J.R.: "Here comes Jason Oliver and he's not wasting any time! This thing has broken out"!

Jason Oliver and Carlito vs. Rob Storm and J.J. "The Ram" Ramplin w/ William Regal

Oliver and Carlito hit the ring, trading shots with Storm and Ramplin. But after Carlito was knocked out of the ring, Ramplin whipped Oliver into Storm who caught him with a flying calf kick. Storm then exited the ring as Ramplin followed up on the move, taking the fight to Oliver with a ground and pound attack. After knocking Oliver into the corner, Ramplin put the boots to him as Regal shouted out for more. Storm tagged in and delivered a pendulum backbreaker before whipping Oliver to the corner, following in with a jumping forearm to the head. Storm then tried to pull Oliver into a DDT but Oliver backdropped him to the mat and fell to one knee, looking to make the tag. But Storm got up, nailing him with a shining wizard before making the tag back to The Ram. Ramplin then whipped Oliver to the ropes, catching him with a big powerslam. He hooked the leg but Oliver kicked out at 2. Storm tagged back into the match and immediately went to the top rope. But when he jumped off, Oliver drove a fist into his abdomen and then he caught him with a running knee lift. The fans were imploring Oliver to tag out and he finally did, slapping the outstretched hand of Carlito who was a house of fire when he came in, tagging both Storm and Ramplin with right hands. After a big dropkick knocked Ramplin out of the ring, Carlito hit the Backcracker on Storm and covered him for the 1......2........, but Regal placed the left foot of Storm on the bottom ring rope and referee Jose Mendez saw it, halting the count. Carlito got up and argued it before turning back to Storm who raked his eyes and then tagged in Ramplin. Ramplin came in and drove into Carlito with the Ram's Horns but he couldn't get the 3 count as Oliver came into the ring to stop the count. Storm came in at this juncture but Oliver tossed him over the top rope by the back of the head. Mendez ordered Oliver back to his corner as Ramplin whipped Carlito to the ropes. Carlito ducked a clothesline and made a blind tag to Oliver who came in from behind Ramplin, taking him to the mat with a rear naked choke. Ramplin fought the hold with all his might before signaling he was done by tapping out.

Match Time: 11:49

Lawler: "How could the ref allow that?! It was a chokehold"!

J.R.: "One of the better submission holds in wrestling, King, the rear naked choke is a legal manuever"!

"SUPERSTAR" BLARED OVER THE LOUDSPEAKERS AND CARLITO SLAPPED HANDS WITH OLIVER AS STORM AND RAMPLIN HEADED UP THE RAMP WITH REGAL, DISAPPOINTED BY THE RESULT.

Lawler: "Well regardless of what we just saw here, we have a lot to come between these four men"!

J.R.: "I'm not gonna argue with ya there, partner".

BACKSTAGE.....

TAYLOR MADE IS TALKING WITH KELLY, WHO SEEMS TO BE TELLING HIM ABOUT HER CONFRONTATION WITH HIGH OCTANE EARLIER. JUST THEN, REX REDFORD COMES UP.

Rex Redford: "Taylor...... I was just making sure you're ready for our tag team match tonight. We're not real familiar with each other, but I think we can get the win tonight".

Taylor Made: "I'm always ready, just ask my Taylorette here. As for our match.... you worry about Umaga, seems I got a bone to pick with High Octane".

IN ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA, ROB VAN DAM IS HAVING A CONVERSATION WITH ONE OF THE STAGE HANDS WHEN MONEY MIKE COMES UP.

Rob Van Dam: "Oh look, it's the King himself. (sarcastically) Would you like me to bow down"?

Money Mike: "Yeah, I can see why you have such a cocky attitude tonight Rob, after all, you did defeat me, the top superstar this company has to offer last week. (Mike gets right in his face) But let's be honest..... we both know that win was a fluke! And if you see your buddy Max Ogden, let him know that the beating he took last week is just a sampling of what I will do to him if he doesn't do what he's supposed to do and go mess with some of the mid card guys! You two are both nothing but peasants who don't belong on my Rampage kingdom"!

RVD: "Yeah, you keep thinking that dude..... and they thought I smoked some good stuff".

RVD WALKS OFF, LEAVING MONEY MIKE SEETHING AS THE SHOT FADES OUT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

A COMMERCIAL FOR PIZZA HUT IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY ONE FOR M&M's.

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

Rampage returns and the introductions for the next macth have already been made and the bell sounds.

J.R.: "We welcome you back live to Rampage as we are ready for tag team action involving Rex Redford teaming with Taylor Made to take on High Octane and this big Samoan, Umaga".

Lawler: "I'll tell ya what, J.R., you talk about the match and I'll talk about Kelly..... wow"!

Rex Redford and Taylor Made w/ Kelly vs. "High Octane" Damion West and Umaga w/ Armando Alejandro Estrada

The bell sounded to start this match and Redford opened things with High Octane. After an exchange of arm drags, Octane was able to catch Redford with a drop toehold before kicking him right in the head. Umaga tagged into the match and he just dominated Redford, dropping him with a headbutt before smashing him with a Mongolian chop to the throat. After catching Redford in a bear hug, Umaga was squeezing the life out of him but Redford used a desperation move, an ear clap and then another, to get a break. Just as Redford made the tag to Taylor, High Octane came into the ring and took referee Jim Korderas' attention away. Korderas didn't see the tag and forced Taylor back to his corner. As Taylor argued the decision with Korderas, Octane made his way over to the other corner, coming after Kelly again. Kelly began to back up when Taylor saw this and flew off the apron at Octane. The two exchanged shots before Taylor threw him into the barricade surrounding the fans before charging at him. Octane was able to use his own momentum against him, sidestepping him and throwing him into the crowd! The fans parted to the side, yelling and cheering as the two men brawled in the stands. In the ring, Umaga missed an avalanche splash in the corner and Redford used a one handed jumping facebuster to turn the tide of the match. Redford hit Umaga with everything he had but he couldn't take him down. After a flying wheel kick, Umaga was rocking back and forth and Redford kicked him in the abdomen before bouncing off the ropes, looking for a sunset flip. He was very near to pulling Umaga over but he was just too big and after getting control of his balance, Umaga reached down with the thumb to the throat, the Samoan Spike and he just saw down on the chest of Redford as Korderas pounded the mat 3 times. Armando Alejandro Estrada was very happy with Umaga, coming into the ring and raising his arm as the crowd booed.

Match Time: 7:41

J.R.: "What a shot that was! That Samoan Spike just stopped Redford cold"!

Lawler: "Redford was on a roll for a minute there, J.R., I thought he might pull the upset"!

J.R.: "And what about this situation between High Octane and Taylor Made?! I was just told through my headset that they were pulled apart by officials after going outside the arena"!

Lawler: "Taylor Made is just protecting his little Taylorette and if you ask me, that's something he might have to do a lot! She's hot"!

BACKSTAGE.....

TODD GRISHAM IS SHOWN IN THE BACK WITH KENNY DOANE.

Todd Grisham: "I'm standing here with Kenny Doane and Kenny, after leaving the Spirit Squad, what does the future hold for you"?

Kenny: "What does the future hold for me? The sky is the limit, Todd. I'm twenty years old.... twenty! By the time all is said and done, I will go down as the greatest TWF superstar ever. Check this out.

KENNY WALKS DOWN THE HALL AS CAMERAS FOLLOW. HE COMES UP TO REY MYSTERIO.

Hey Rey..... can you tell me the last twenty year old superstar to make an impact here in the TWF"?

Rey Mysterio: "Don't ask me".

Kenny: "Well we know it wasn't you. I mean, you're what, like twice my age, and I'm already as good as you. Plus, I'm not afraid to show my face".

Mysterio: "Look man, I don't know what you're trying to do, but I'm not in the mood".

JUST THEN, KENNY SLAPS REY ACROSS THE FACE, FORCING REY TO FIRE BACK WITH A RIGHT HAND. THE TWO TRADE SHOTS AS A BRAWL BREAKS OUT. GRISHAM GETS OUT OF THE WAY QUICKLY AS SEVERAL AGENTS STEP IN TO STOP THE FIGHT.

CAMERAS THEN SHOW CANDICE MICHELLE, WHO IS TALKING WITH MICKIE JAMES WHEN STEPHANIE McMAHON COMES UP.

Stephanie McMahon: "Hey, Mickie, can you give us a moment"?

Mickie James: "Sure".

MICKIE WALKS OFF.

Candice: "Look Stephanie, I.......

JUST THEN, STEPHANIE HAULS OFF AND SLAPS CANDICE RIGHT ACROSS THE FACE WITH SHEER HATRED.

Stephanie: "Save it you stupid bitch! You think that was bad, just keep messing with Mike and I!! We are royalty and you...... you're far from it"!

STEPHANIE WALKS AWAY AND CANDICE IS CLEARLY HURT.

"LYING FROM YOU" BY LINKIN PARK COMES ON AND THE CROWD BURSTS INTO BOOS AS JOE COREY MAKES HIS WAY TO THE RING ALONG WITH PAUL HEYMAN.

J.R.: "Can you believe Stephanie McMahon?! That was damned disgusting what she just did to Candice!"

Lawler: "Well you've heard you're guilty by assocation, unfortunately Candice is associated with Max Ogden"!

J.R.: "Well something tells me Ogden will have something to say about that but here comes Joe Corey looking to complete the third leg of his battle against the three ECW originals used by RVD at King of the Ring".

A FAMILIAR TUNE IS HEARD FOLLOWED BY A LOUD POP FROM THE CROWD AS SABU COMES OUT, HEADING TO THE RING.

Lawler: "And Sabu may've been the most influential in RVD winning that match against Joe Corey, J.R."!

J.R.: "We've already seen Corey defeat Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman in one on one action and now he faces Sabu, a SlaughterHouse superstar, and a win here might be convincing to Paul Heyman that his client is on to something with his approach to bringing back ECW".

Lawler: "Well I know Corey wants that ECW title RVD is holding and he's not going to stop until he gets it"!

"The Show" Joe Corey w/ Paul Heyman vs. Sabu

It was clear this match wouldn't last long as the two men started throwing haymakers the second the bell sounded. After getting in a thumb to the eye, Corey shot Sabu to the corner and followed in with a clothesline. After a big suplex, Corey hit the ropes but missed with a big kneedrop. That opened the door for Sabu, who used 3 right hands to set up a basement dropkick, hitting Corey with plenty of force. He then jumped off the ropes, looking for his springboard calf kick but Corey avoided it and kicked him in the gut, hitting the "Showstopper" for the win.

Match Time: 3:45

But after the match, Corey was soon watching RVD and Max Ogden running to the ring with steel chairs, looking for revenge from last week. Corey did his best to buy some time before Money Mike came running out. But the second he got in the ring, Ogden smashed him with his chair. Corey ducked out of the ring on the other side before any harm could be done and Money Mike rolled out of the ring as well. "One of a Kind" by Breaking Point hit as RVD and Ogden stood tall in the ring with the crowd loudly cheering.

J.R.: "The situations between these four men are starting to boil over, King"!

Lawler: "They sure are, did you hear the sound of that chair"?!

J.R.: "There is no doubt there will be a time and a place for these situations to be handled inside the ring but I would suggest our general manager get a handle on things"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK.......

J.R.: "We're back on Rampage and Mark Henry has attacked Batista from behind, starting this match prematurely"!

THE BRAWL CONTINUED AND THE CROWD GOT BEHIND BATISTA, WHICH WAS WORKING AS BATISTA ROCKED HIM WITH RIGHT HAND AFTER RIGHT HAND. BUT HENRY WENT LOW, KICKING BATISTA IN THE GROIN BEFORE PICKING HIM UP AND DELIVERING THE WORLD's STRONGEST SLAM ON THE STEEL RAMP! BATISTA FOLDED UP IN PAIN AS HENRY STOOD OVER HIM BEFORE OFFICIALS RAN OUT TO PREVENT HENRY FROM DOING FURTHER DAMAGE.

J.R.: "My God, he just slammed him into that cold, hard, unforgiving steel platform! Batista has been broken in half"!

Lawler: "Mark Henry said Batista would end up just like Travis Wakeman did.... and it looks like he has"!

OFF AIR.......
