AS RAMPAGE GOES ON THE AIR LIVE, A PACKAGE OF HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE LAST RAMPAGE IS SHOWN STARTING WITH RANDY ORTON ADDRESSING THE FANS AFTER BECOMING TWF WORLD CHAMPION AT KING OF THE RING BEFORE BEING INTERRUPTED BY ROB VAN DAM, WHO CHALLENGES HIM TO A TITLE MATCH. ORTON ACCEPTS, BUT THE MATCH NEVER HAPPENS BECAUSE RVD IS VICIOUSLY ATTACKED ON HIS WAY TO THE RING BY ORTON FROM BEHIND.

"TO BE LOVED" BY PAPA ROACH THEN COMES ON AND THE OPENING MONTAGE VIDEO ROLLS BEFORE THE ARENA COMES INTO THE SHOT AND THE CROWD IS COLLECTIVELY YELLING AND SCREAMING TO START THE SHOW.

Jim Ross: "Are you ready for some live TWF action?! This crowd in Biloxi is..... King, what a show we have tonight"!

Jerry Lawler: "Oh boy do we! Randy Orton is still our champion, but RVD is sure to have something to say after we just had our memories refreshed on what happened last week"!

"NUMBER OF THE BEAST" BY IRON MAIDEN COMES ON AND J.J. RAMPLIN COMES OUT TO MOSTLY BOOS.

J.R.: "We will have all the latest news on that situation plus Travis Wakeman will take on Mike Knox but right now, here comes J.J. Ramplin who was a member of what is apparently the now defunct ECW group".

Lawler: "Well I think he has maintained contact with Joe Corey over on PrimeTime, but Ramplin knows his time to shine individually is now".

"MISTERRRRRRRR KENNEDYYYYYYYYYY" IS HEARD AND KEN KENNEDY STEPS OUT TO AN ENORMOUS CHEER FROM THE CROWD, HEADING TO THE RING.

J.R.: "And what a way for him to begin that process tonight against his long time, bitter rival, Mr. Kennedy".

Lawler: "This will be a real treat.... two of the top tier guys here on Rampage".

J.R.: "Both of these men will take part in the 2009 Royal Rumble but one of them will gain a ton of momentum with a victory here".

J.J. "The Ram" Ramplin vs. Mr. Kennedy

This was an excellent opening to the show as both men went all out for over 10 minutes. After an exhange of holds and some great chain wrestling on the mat, Kennedy caught Ramplin with a terrific spin kick to the head. He then pulled him up and went for an irish whip. After missing with a clothesline, Kennedy tried a leap frog but Ramplin snatched him out of mid air and put him on the mat with a powerslam. This match was back and forth like that throughout but after grabbing Kennedy around the head and neck, Ramplin led him right into the middle turnbuckle. Ramplin then hit the ropes and went for his spear but this time, the leapfrog worked for Kennedy and he was able to take Ramplin down with a reverse flying forearm. Kennedy then called upon the crowd and they responded with cheers. After 2 straight right hands to Ramplin, Kennedy tried to get him up on his shoulders but Ramplin was able to elbow his way free. After a textbook backdrop suplex, Ramplin wanted to put the match away as both men were gassed. Ramplin pulled Kennedy up, trying to position him for the "Dead Weight" but Kennedy got in a quick jab to the gut before using a small package to pin Ramplin out of nowhere.

Match Time: 10:17

RAMPLIN SLAPPED THE MAT IN FRUSTRATION AS KENNEDY LEFT THE RING WITH THE WIN.

J.R.: "He got him! A one, two, three for Mr. Kennedy and what a great match that was"!

Lawler: "Tremendous way to start this show! Both these guys are so evenly matched..... Kennedy just got the better of him tonight"!

KENNEDY's MUSIC PLAYED AS HE STOOD ATOP THE ENTRY WAY, LOOKING BACK AT RAMPLIN.

J.R.: "A big win for the former World champ! Don't go away fans.... we have so much more to come"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK...........

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

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, M.X. OGDEN, DEUCE SNUKA AND STACY KEIBLER ARE ENGAGED IN A CONVERSATION WHEN THE REST OF GENEXT, JASON OLIVER, CODY RHODES AND TED DIBIASE WALK UP.

Ted Dibiase: "What's up, guys"?

M.X. Ogden: "Not much man, just getting ready for our match tonight".

Jason Oliver: "Don't sweat it, man.... my boys beat Hawkins and Ryder..... you guys will be cool".

Ogden: "Your boys, huh? Deuce and I have it under control".

OGDEN, DEUCE AND STACY WALK AWAY.

Cody Rhodes: "What the heck is his problem"?

Oliver: "I don't know, he's had some issues lately, but I know him, he'll get it worked out".

Carlito and Primo vs. Knockout-Tapout Connection

After losing the Rampage Tag Team titles, Sylvester Terkay and Elijah Burke seemed to be heading toward a downward spiral as Carlito and Primo came out on fire. The Colon brothers made frequent tags and after a double dropkick took Terkay out of the ring, they were able to combine their abilities to get Burke on the ropes. Primo was in the ring with Burke and after a big hip toss slam, he made the tag to Carlito who came in and measured him for the Backstabber. But Burke was able to avoid it and he hit Carlito with a running kneelift before scoring with a DDT. Burke made it to his corner and got the tag to the Manbear who came in and just overpowered Carlito. After a big clothesline, he got Carlito up on his shoulder in somewhat of a torcher rack. Primo came into the ring and Terkay dropped Carlito, throwing a clothesline. Primo ducked and dropkicked the ECW World champ before he and Carlito delivered a nice double DDT. Primo then went back to the corner and got the tag from Carlito just as Burke ran back into the ring. But Carlito sidestepped him and threw him over the top rope and to the floor. Primo ran the ropes and was able to use a beautiful flying headscissor to take Terkay down. Carlito then used the ropes to vault outside but Burke got out of the way and Carlito hit the floor hard. Meanwhile, Primo was perched up on the top turnbuckle and he flew off, only to have Terkay catch him in mid air. After dropping Primo across his knee with a vicious backbreaker, Terkay knocked him down with the Heart Punch to get the win.

Match Time: 6:11

BACKSTAGE AREA......

IN THE BACK, TODD GRISHAM IS WITH MONEY MIKE, WHO SEEMS TO BE IN A VERY GOOD MOOD.

Todd Grisham: "I am here at this time with Money Mike and there has been a lot of talk about the tag team title match you got for Eddie Saint James on the last Rampage where he and Boogeyman were able to become tag team champions. Most everyone thought you were setting The Saint up to fail........

Money Mike: "But I wasn't, Todd. Ya see, despite the issues I have had with Mr. Saint James and The Boogeyman, I have seen what they could do for me. Not only that, but what I can do for them. See, Todd, you are looking at a different Money Mike and the last Rampage was the first sampling. Right now, I am not only out for myself as I have been in the past, but I am out to help those less fortunate".

THE SHOT GOES TO ANOTHER PART OF THE BACKSTAGE AREA WHERE A NEW SUPERSTAR APPROACHES SEAN O'HAIRE AND OFFERS TO SHAKE HIS HAND.

Superstar: "Hi..... I'm Dolph Ziggler".

O'HAIRE ACCEPTS THE HANDSHAKE AND GETS A SLY GRIN ON HIS FACE.

Sean O'Haire: "O'Haire..... Sean O'Haire, and I can be your best friend..... or your worst enemy".

THE NEWCOMER ZIGGLER PULLS HIS HAND BACK AND WALKS AWAY.

BACK IN THE RING, "ONE OF A KIND" IS PLAYING AND ROB VAN DAM HAS COME OUT AND TAKEN A MICROPHONE.

J.R.: "Well we have been joined by Rob Van Dam and it seems he has something on his mind".

Rob Van Dam: "Last week, I called Randy Orton on his claim that he is the best the TWF has to offer. I challenged him to a one on one..... man on man match for the TWF World title and what did he do? Well, you all saw it, he attacked me before the match even started! If that doesn't scream punk ass bitch, I don't know what does! So come on, Orton, make a liar out of me..... come out to this ring right now and show me if you've got any balls at all"!

Lawler: "Strong words from RVD..... he's calling out the champ again"!

J.R.: "Well I don't blame him. Come on, Orton, where ya at"?

"VOICES" BY REV THEORY COMES ON AND ORTON STEPS OUT FROM THE BACK TO NOTHING BUT BOOS. HE HEADS STRAIGHT TO THE RING AND THE FIGHT IS ON. RVD JUMPS ON HIM AND IS ABLE TO LAND SOME QUICK RIGHT HANDS BEFORE CONNECTING WITH A SPIN KICK TO THE HEAD. ORTON COMES BACK WITH SOME SHOTS OF HIS OWN BUT WHEN HE TRIES TO RAM RVD HEAD FIRST INTO THE TOP TURNBUCKLE PAD, VAN DAM BLOCKS IT AND CONNECTS WITH A STRAIGHT UP KICK RIGHT IN THE FACE. BUT JUST THEN, JACK SWAGGER HITS THE RING AND IS ALL OVER RVD! THE CROWD BOOS AS ORTON AND SWAGGER BEGIN TO BEAT HIM DOWN IN A 2 ON 1 SITUATION.

J.R.: "What the hell is this?! It's the All American American coming out here to help Orton"!

Lawler: "And they're all over RVD.... look at this"!

AFTER ORTON AND SWAGGER HAD INCAPACITATED RVD, SWAGGER PICKED HIM UP AND DELIVERED THE DOCTOR BOMB WHICH SENT THE CROWD INTO EVEN MORE BOOS.

"VOICES" PLAYED AGAIN AS ORTON AND SWAGGER LEFT THE RING AND RVD WAS STILL DOWN INSIDE OF IT.

Lawler: "Once again, Randy Orton is one step ahead of RVD"!

J.R.: "Yeah, but he's also the World champion, so you have to ask yourself when he's gonna be a man and take this guy on, one on one, in the ring"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK...........

RETURN FROM BREAK....

The screen flickers on to play a pre-recorded video of an out of place looking Richard Ramsley sitting on a bench at a Mall. He has his arms spread out, and his legs spread open. He's wearing a a Filter T-Shirt, a flannel overshirt wrapped around his waist, and a pair of blue jeans. He looks at all the people walking around him, groans, then looks at the camera.

Richard Ramsley: "Look at these..... vermin.... like rats to a dead body, they swarm to this place of hedonistic filth..... I never thought I'd be able to say that I have something in common with any of these walking piles of scum, but for once, I can. See, they come here for something, a specific store, for example, and they always go to different ones, even though that's not what they came for. Me? I know what my goal is.... and he'll feel the full force of my anger soon enough.... but it seems I've been sidetracked. Matt Cruz..... it seems that later tonight, you'll be stepping into the ring with me. Don't think that you'll have an easy time against me because my mind's on..... someone else. I have enough anger to go around, and tonight, you're going to get a taste of what HE'S going to get.... now if you excuse me.... this place is making me sick.

Ramsley leans over and spits onto the ground. A young girl walking by looks at Ramsley, and gives him a disgusted look.

Ramsley: "Psh. The fact that that loogie came from my mouth already makes it smarter than you, you disgusting waste of carbon".

The girl begins to cry, and runs off. Ramsley laughs, before he gets up and walks away.

RETURN TO LIVE ACTION.... BACKSTAGE.....

RVD IS IN HIS DRESSING ROOM HOLDING THE BACK OF HIS HEAD WHEN HE HEARS A KNOCK AT THE DOOR. THE DOOR SWINGS OPEN AND IT's ROWDY RODDY PIPER.

RVD: "Did you just see that crap"?

Rowdy Roddy Piper: "Find a partner".

RVD: "Huh? Find a partner..... can I pick anyone"?

Piper: "Anyone........ find a partner and the two of you will face Orton and Swagger later tonight".

PIPER CLOSES THE DOOR AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, "HEY MAN, NICE SHOT" BY FILTER, THE BRAND NEW ENTRANCE THEME FOR RICHARD RAMSLEY HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO NOTHING BUT BOOS.

J.R.: "Well we just heard some rather interesting comments from this man but right now, he has a chance to qualify for the Royal Rumble where the winner earns a guaranteed spot in the main event at WrestleMania 10".

Lawler: "And let's not forget that he has still yet to be defeated here in the TWF".

"THE NEXT EPISODE" BY DR. DRE COMES ON AND MATT CRUZ COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER FROM THE CROWD. HE IS DRESSED IN HIS BLACK AND BURNT ORANGE TRUNKS AND HE HAS A LOOK OF CONFIDENCE ABOUT HIM ON THIS NIGHT.

J.R.: "Matt Cruz is no stranger to the Royal Rumble match as he has experienced some success in there before but to get there tonight, he will have to deal Richard Ramsley, a very odd fellow to say the least, his first loss".

Lawler: "Two of the premier members of the young core of talent we have here on Rampage...... should make for a great match".

Royal Rumble Qualification Match

Matt "Madik" Cruz vs. Richard Ramsley

The bell sounded and the two men locked up jockeying for position. Ramsley broke the collar and elbow tie and struck Cruz in the ribs with 2 sharp jabs. But Cruz blocked an ensuing right hand and kicked Ramsley low before sending him to the corner, following in by driving his shoulders into the gut of Ramsley. After a perfect double underhook suplex, Cruz was able to control Ramsley on the mat with a top wristlock. But Ramsley got up to one knee and then was able to escape the hold before flingin Cruz over his body and to the mat. After a very stiff kick to the back of the head, Ramsley ran the ropes and kicked Cruz right in the face. He then pulled him up and delivered a gutwrench suplex, going for the cover, but Cruz was up at 2. Ramsley got him up again and whipped him to the corner before charging in but Cruz was waiting with a boot to the face before grabbing him for a very nice belly to belly suplex. From there, Cruz tried to control the legs, looking for the "Colorado Cloverleaf" but Ramsley fought it off and used both feet to push Cruz away. Ramsley got to his feet but Cruz had hit the ropes and he crushed him with a clothesline. From there, he went to the top rope, looking for a possible moonsault but Ramsley got to his feet and hit Cruz in the back before punching him in the kidney. After climbing up all the way to the top rope with him, Ramsley brought him off with an incredible backdrop suplex off the top rope! He floated over into a cover when they landed and got the 1..........2.........., but Cruz got a shoulder up! Cruz slowly got to his feet but Ramsley was ready and he delivered the "Flatliner", a nasty DDT, to put the match away.

Match Time: 6:29

J.R.: "A very, very hard fought match here and I really thought Cruz was gonna pull it off, but it wasn't to be. You can add the name of Richard Ramsley to this year's Royal Rumble field".

Lawler: "He goes into the Royal Rumble still undefeated"!

"HEY MAN, NICE SHOT" PLAYED AGAIN AS RAMSLEY WALKED UP THE RAMP, ABSORBING THE BOOS HE WAS RECEIVING. JUST THEN, "KING OF KINGS" BY MOTORHEAD CAME ON AND MONEY MIKE CAME OUT FROM THE BACK. HE AND RAMSLEY BOTH STOP AND GLARED AT EACH OTHER AS THEY CROSSED PATHES BEFORE RAMSLEY WENT TO THE BACK AND MONEY MIKE HEADED TO THE RING.

J.R.: "What the hell is this now"?

Lawler: "Money Mike is on his way to the ring..... Matt Cruz is still in there"!

MONEY MIKE GRABBED A MICROPHONE AND ENTERED THE RING RIGHT AS CRUZ WAS BEGINNING TO GATHER HIMSELF FOLLOWING THE DEFEAT.

Money Mike: "Oh so close.... oh so close again, right, Matt? But that's kind of been the story of your career, hasn't it? I remember when you first came in. This big, young rookie who everyone knew was destined to be a star. You won your match at WrestleMania that year and even won some kind of award that year..... right? But honestly, what have you done since?

MIKE PAUSES AND LOOKS AROUND THE CROWD.

So I'm prepared to make you an offer. For one second, block these stupid people out and think about yourself. What do you want to do for Matt Cruz? I can help you resurrent your career, Matt, just as I've done for Eddie Saint James and The Boogeyman. I can help you return to that past, early glory. And I know you and I have a past which most of these people don't know about and that's fine.... because they don't need to. The only thing is..... I need an answer.... right now".

MONEY MIKE HANDS CRUZ THE MICROPHONE AND CRUZ LOOKS AROUND AT ALL THE FANS WHO ARE CLEARLY TELLING HIM NOT TO DO IT. AFTER LOOKING DOWN AT THE MAT FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS, CRUZ TAKES THE MICROPHONE AND HITS MONEY MIKE IN THE HEAD WITH IT! FROM THERE, HE PULLS MIKE IN FOR A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX!

Lawler: "Whoa! What the hell"?!

J.R.: "I think that's a no"!

JUST THEN, THE BOOGEYMAN AND EDDIE SAINT JAMES HIT THE RING AND THEY ARE ALL OVER CRUZ. AFTER BOTH MEN BEAT HIM DOWN, THEY HOLD HIM BY HIS ARMS AND FEED HIM TO MIKE, WHO HAS A PSYCHOTIC LOOK IN HIS EYES. HE THEN STRIKES CRUZ WITH A RIGHT HAND, KNOCKING HIM TO THE MAT.

"KING OF KINGS" PLAYS AGAIN AND MONEY MIKE LEAVES THE RING ALONG WITH THE SAINT AND THE BOOGEYMAN.

J.R.: "Well folks, I have no idea what to make of this. Money Mike has some sort of agenda..... I just have no idea what it is".

Lawler: "Ya gotta admit, Cruz should've taken the offer..... look at the success Boogeyman and The Saint have had"!

BACKSTAGE.........

TODD GRISHAM IS WITH SEBASTIAN CAIN IN THE BACK.

Todd Grisham: "Sebastian, here in just a few moments, you will be involved in a tag team match and on the opposing side will be Sean O'Haire. Everyone knows by now that Sean O'Haire was apparently withholding some very important phone calls from you".

Sebastian Cain: "Todd, when I came into the TWF, I was a young, impressionable rookie and I probably still am. Sean O'Haire took me in and I trusted him. But Todd, my sister has had some very serious issues..... issues that wouldn't have been nearly as bad if O'Haire wouldn't have done what he did. So Sean, I plan to make you pay for the hurt you caused me, but most importantly, my family".

THE SHOT GOES TO THE TRAINER's ROOM WHICH MELINA HAS JUST ENTERED.

Melina: "Hey doc, I know Travis was in here earlier.... can you tell me what you guys were talking about"?

Trainer: "Uh..... sorry, Melina, but that's confidential information between he and I".

Melina: "But I..........

Trainer: "I'm sorry..... I can't".

MELINA LEAVES THE ROOM, OBVIOUSLY DEJECTED.

Sebastian Cain and D'Lo Brown vs. Sean O'Haire and Chris Masters

Before the bell rang to start the match, Sebastian Cain lost his cool and was all over O'Haire, hitting him with several wild punches after taking him to the mat. Masters came over to try and help out but D'Lo Brown swung him around and delivered a right hand. After shooting Masters to the ropes, D'Lo landed a flying calf kick before delivering a quick legdrop which got him a 1 count on the Masterpiece. Meanwhile, O'Haire and Cain were brawling on the floor and Cain was just out of his mind, all over O'Haire. After sending the King of Cable face first into the steel ring post, Cain delivered a powerslam right on the floor. Cain then went over to his corner and asked for a tag which D'Lo made. Cain came into the ring and hit Masters with rights and lefts to the head before landing a kick to the abdomen. After running the ropes, Cain ran right into a big clothesline from Masters who then picked him up over his head in a military press before just slamming him the mat. After dragging Cain over to the ropes, Masters draped him over the middle ring rope and began to choke him with it, drawing a warning from referee Scott Martin. But as Martin pulled Masters away, O'Haire came over with the King of Cable title belt, smacking Cain right in the face with it! Masters then moved in and slapped on the "Masterlock" and before long, Cain was out of it and Martin called for the bell.

Match Time: 5:07

Lawler: "That's it..... he's out"!

J.R.: "Well the Masterlock is usually bad enough but factor in a shot to the head with that title belt"!

AFTER THE MATCH, O'HAIRE CAME BACK IN WITH THE BELT AND GOT RIGHT DOWN ON THE MAT NEXT TO CAIN, PUSHING THE BELT INTO HIS FACE WHILE HAVING SOME WORDS FOR HIM.

Lawler: "Cain came out like a bat of hell but he's the one laying on the mat after the match"!

J.R.: "Well you're gonna have to face him one day, Sean... you're gonna have to face him with that title on the line and without any help from a tag team partner. But you don't want to go away because still to come, Travis Wakeman battles Mike Knox..... plus a lot more"!

COMMERCIAL BREAK..........

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

WHEN RAMPAGE RETURNS, CODY RHODES AND TED DIBIASE ARE TALKING BACKSTAGE WHEN DYLAN JANSENS APPROACHES.

Cody Rhodes: "Oh check this out.... here comes the "enflamer".

Ted Dibiase: (laughs)

Dylan Jansens: "Say guys..... where might I be able to find Jason Oliver"?

Dibiase: "Uh.... he's busy pleasing some broad that got a VIP pass tonight".

Jansens: "Really? Well when he's done playing games, tell him to find me in the ring tonight, we have a little unfinished business".

THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING WHERE CURT HAWKINS AND ZACK RYDER ARE AWAITING THE OPPOSITION.

"STRAIGHT TO VIDEO" BY MINDLESS SELF INDULGENCE HITS AND M.X. OGDEN COMES OUT ALONG WITH DEUCE SNUKA AND STACY KEIBLER, HEADED FOR THE RING.

J.R.: "We are back on Rampage live here on the USA network and here comes one part of the GeNext group and correct me if I am wrong, King, but it is starting to seem like this group is made up of two parts".

Lawler: "So what are you trying to say? To me that sounds like good ol' J.R. stirring the pot again".

J.R.: "Well you heard the words straight out of Oliver's mouth earlier tonight, almost rubbing it in Ogden's face that his boys, as he called them, already beat the team of Hawkins and Ryder".

Lawler: "Well I'm pretty sure you're the only one who saw anything negative in it..... I certainly didn't".

M.X. Ogden and Deuce Snuka w/ Stacy Keibler vs. Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder

Stacy encouraged Ogden and Snuka as the bell sounded to start the match and Snuka got in there with Curt Hawkins. The two men locked up and Deuce, the stronger of the two, was able to push him to the turnbuckle. But he missed with a right hand and Hawkins was able to get out of the corner and catch Snuka with a dropkick. A tag was made to Ryder who slung himself over the top rope with a kick right on the chin of Deuce. After pulling him up, he whipped him to the corner and flew in with a clothesline but Deuce got out of the way. Ryder was stuck in the turnbuckle after the botched move and Deuce grabbed him, pulling him to the mat with a reverse DDT. Ogden tagged into the match and some of the fans could even be heard cheering as he got in. He put the boots to Ryder before pulling him up and driving a European uppercut right into his chin. Staying on the attack, Ogden delivered a beautiful double underhook into a powerbomb and covered Ryder for the 1......2......., but he was up. Ogden ran the ropes but Ryder popped up into a flying wheel kick before getting to his corner and slapping the hand of Hawkins. Hawkins came in and delivered a sitout jawbreaker. Ogden bounced off the ropes from the impact and Hawkins used a small package for the 1......2......., but Ogden was up. Both men got to their feet and Ogden threw a clothesline that missed before Hawkins scored with a European armdrag. He then went outside the ring and went to the top rope as Stacy got on the apron to run distraction. Referee Jose Mendez went over to attempt to get her down while Deuce ran around the outside of the ring and took out Ryder. He then got up on the apron just as Hawkins was about to take flight and he grabbed his right arm, pulling him down right across the top rope. Hawkins was then easy pickens for Ogden, who hit the "Memory Maker" and covered him for the 1.........2..........3!

Match Time: 5:32

J.R.: "And there's the Memory Maker! That manuever usually spells the end for opponents"!

Lawler: "And take a look at Ogden.... he's taking it all in here after this victory"!

AS "STRAIGHT TO VIDEO" PLAYED AGAIN, M.X. OGDEN STOOD IN THE RING, GAZING INTO THE CROWD. HIS EYES SEEMED TO BE WELLING UP WITH TEARS BEFORE STACY AND DEUCE CAME IN TO CELEBRATE THE WIN WITH HIM. THE TRIO THEN LEFT THE RING, ALMOST TO A MIXED REACTION.

J.R.: "Well I don't know what to think of that..... this win obviously meant a lot of Ogden and like him or not, he sure has Deuce Snuka moving in the right direction".

BACKSTAGE.......

CAMERAS IN THE BACK SHOW BETH PHOENIX IN THE CATERING AREA, POURING HERSELF SOMETHING TO DRINK WHEN MONICA COMES UP.

Monica: "So.... I understand you talked to Piper earlier about a Women's title shot".

Beth Phoenix: "Heh.... not that it's any of your business, but yes, yes I did".

Monica: "Well whether you get the shot first or not..... one of these days..... you'll have to go through me".

Phoenix: "Pshh..... don't you have a magic trick to go do or something"?

MONICA GIVES BETH A LONG STARE BEFORE WALKING AWAY AND THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE RING.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, MIKE KNOX IS SHOWN COMING TO THE RING TO PLENTY OF HEAT.

J.R.: "It was on the last Rampage where we saw this man come out and attack Travis Wakeman and if there has ever been an unprovoked attack in the history of the TWF..... that was it"!

Lawler: "Mike Knox is trying to put his name on the TWF map and he'll have no better chance to do that than he does right now tonight"!

"TAKING YOU DOWN" BY EGYPT CENTRAL COMES ON TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES DOWN THE RAMP, VERY SLOWLY. MIKE KNOX LEAVES THE RING AND THE FIGHT IS ON.

J.R.: "Wait a minute, Knox isn't waiting for Wakeman to get to the ring"!

WAKEMAN AND KNOX TRADED SHOTS ON THE RAMP UNTIL KNOX GOT A BIG KNEELIFT IN. AFTER GRABBING WAKEMAN BY THE BACK OF THE HEAD, KNOX DRAGGED HIM DOWN THE RAMP AND THEN FLUNG HIM INTO THE RING STEPS. KNOX THEN ROLLED WAKEMAN INTO THE RING AND WAS ALL OVER HIM RIGHT AS HE GOT IN. REFEREE CHAD PATTON HAD YET TO ASK FOR THE BELL TO MAKE THE MATCH OFFICIAL, INSTEAD YELLING AT KNOX TO BACK AWAY. WAKEMAN DID HIS BEST TO GET UP, BUT KNOX KICKED HIM RIGHT IN THE HEAD. PATTON FORCED KNOX BACK AND WAKEMAN GOT TO ONE KNEE, ONLY TO HAVE KNOX KICK HIM IN THE SIDE OF THE HEAD AGAIN AFTER PUSHING PATTON ASIDE. FINALLY, PATTON CALLED FOR THE BELL TO STOP THE MATCH.

J.R.: "Well my God.... what the hell is wrong with Mike Knox"?!

Lawler: "He's out of conrol"!

FINALLY, KNOX PICKED WAKEMAN UP AND DELIVERED HIS SPINNING STO TAKEDOWN.

J.R.: "That's enough..... the damage has been done, damnit"!

Lawler: "I don't think this Mike Knox came out here to win a match tonight..... he came out here to make a statement"!

KNOX FINALLY LEFT THE RING AS WAKEMAN LAY HELPLESS ON THE MAT.

COMMERCIAL BREAK.............

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

Jason Oliver vs. Dylan Jansens

This was easily the best match all night as these two went move for move and hold for hold. Oliver was in control early but when he went for a rear naked choke, Jansens caught him with a back elbow that busted his lip open. Jansens then got up and began to take it to Oliver, pushing the 2008 King of the Ring to the limit. After connecting with a flying clothesline off the top rope, Jansens grabbed Oliver around the head and neck and ran to one of the corners, using the ring ropes to spring off for a tornado DDT. But Oliver threw him across the ring and charged after him with a clothesline. Jansens ducked but when he turned around, Oliver was waiting with his big superkick and he fell into a cover to get the win.

Match Time: 8:02

J.R.: "I felt that kick out here, King! What a shot"!

Lawler: "Just when it looked like Jansens was going to pull it off, Oliver turned the tables"!

"FLY FROM THE INSIDE" BY SHINEDOWN PLAYS AS JASON OLIVER LEAVES THE RING TO MOSTLY BOOS.

J.R.: "Is there anyone on a bigger roll than this kid"?

BACKSTAGE.......

IN THE BACK, CAMERAS SHOW TRAVIS WAKEMAN STANDING UP AGAINST A WALL, BREATHING HEAVY AS HE TRIES TO RECOVER FROM THE BEATING HE SUSTAINED AT THE HANDS OF MIKE KNOX. JUST THEN, MELINA COMES UP.

Travis Wakeman: "Ugh..... Melina, we've been........

MELINA PUTS A FINGER OVER WAKEMAN's LIPS.

Melina: "Shhh...... I'm not here for an explanation. I just came to tell you that whenever you are ready to tell me what's wrong....... I'll be here".

MELINA GIVES WAKEMAN A KISS AND WALKS AWAY. THE MOMENT SHE DOES, A TEAR ROLLS DOWN THE RIGHT SIDE OF HIS CHEEK.

BACK AT RINGSIDE, IT WAS TIME FOR THE MAIN EVENT. RANDY ORTON AND JACK SWAGGER HAD BEEN INTRODUCED AND ROB VAN DAM REVEALED HIS TAG TEAM PARTNER TO BE CHRIS TIRPAK, WHO CAME THROUGH THE CROWD WITH HIS KENDO STICK.

Randy Orton and Jack Swagger vs. Rob Van Dam and Chris Tirpak

RVD clearly wanted to get his hands on Orton this entire match, but it was fought primarily between Tirpak and Swagger. Swagger shot Tirpak to the corner and slammed into him with a clothesline before trying to get him up on his shoulders but Tirpak slipped off and hit him in the back of the head before german suplexing the "All American American". Tirpak went for a cover and had a 2 count before Orton came in to break it up. That brought RVD into the ring and after a spin kick to the head, RVD clotheslined Orton out of the ring before flying out right onto him. But in the ring, Tirpak tried to get Swagger up for the "Lights Out", only to have him elbow his way out and then kick Tirpak right in the face. From there, Swagger got in position and grabbed Tirpak, muscling him up for the Doctor Bomb, which led to the 3 count being administered.

Match Time: 6:15

Lawler: "He got him! Jack Swagger and Randy Orton are your winners"!

J.R.: "That doctor bomb is a very simple move to deliver, but it has devastating effects"!

RANDY ORTON AND SWAGGER LEFT THE RING, BOTH WITH THEIR ARMS RAISED AS THE FANS RESPONDED WITH NOTHING BUT BOOS.

Lawler: "And look at this, J.R., maybe even more importantly..... Randy Orton seems to have found a.... well a running buddy of sorts in Jack Swagger"!

J.R.: "I can see that and if you ask me..... having Swagger around will make it even harder to disprove Orton's theory that he is the best the TWF has to offer"!

OFF AIR................
