[[We now enter the Warzone! The money end of the night, where all the serious action happens!. We've just come back from a commercial break, the fans are waiting in anticipation for the next half of the show to begin, when up on the AWE-tron we see writing, with a professional voice over....]]

"The following is a paid advertisement by Vincent K. McMahon."

[[The screen suddenly is interrupted by some serious static. A few seconds later, it cuts out, and we see sitting in an office......... and all that's on screen is a pair of hands, rubbing together. The camera moves up a little, and arms can be seen, connected to those hands, dressed in what appears to be a classy suit. We go a little further up, and we see an Adam's apple, a familiar one at that...... and then we find out who it is..... Vince McMahon! He's sitting, smirking, and facing the camera.]]

Vince McMahon: Tick....... tock........ tick........ tock........ the clock is tickin', Paul.

[[McMahon smirks that evil, twisted, sadistic smile that he does ever so well.]]

Vince McMahon: And do you know why? It's 'cause I'm coming back to get what's mine - the AWE. Soon, Paul..... Soon.

[[McMahon laughs a bit, as the camera lowers itself from McMahon back down to the desk, and then static starts to fade in a bit, then fade out some, then it fades right in.......... before going to another voice over coinciding with text on the AWE-tron.]]

"The proceeding was a paid advertisement by Vincent K. McMahon."

[[Then it fades out.]]


[[Backstage we go, and we find Terri - the AWE interviewer, standing with none other than the self proclaimed Franchise of the Action! Wrestling Entertainment, Shane Douglas!.]]

Terri: Shane, tonight you'll take on both Goldberg, the AWE World Heavyweight Champion, and Raven, one half of the AWE World Tag Team Champions, in a triple threat match. What must be going through your mind, now the match is within an hour away?

Shane Douglas: Terri, I'll tell ya' what. Ya' take a look at Goldberg, yeah, he's the World Champ. Whoop-dee-fuckin'-doo. Take a look at that freak Raven, talkin' nothin' but shit. Then, Terri..... take a look at ME, Shane Douglas, the TRUE FUCKIN' FRANCHISE of the AWE....... and you'll be looking at a winner. As far as how I'm feelin', well to sum it up.... pretty fuckin' confident.

Terri: Earlier tonight, we saw Raven show no interest in you at all. How does that make you feel?

Shane Douglas: How does it make me feel? Terri, I couldn't care less. Raven has missed the opportunity of a lifetime, and I'm goin' to prove he made a mistake. Ya' see, me joinin' Clockwork Orange would have completed them. It would have made them a completely fuckin' dominant unit. But no, Raven cant THINK that far ahead. So as far as I'm feelin', Clockwork Orange can go to fuckin' hell.

Terri: Fair enough, fair enough....... alright, well just quickly, your Extreme Title, how's it feel to be the Champ?

Shane Douglas: Terri, why do you keep askin' me how I feel, damn it?. Why do you give a fuck?! If it were me, I wouldn't give two hoots what you did..... so why do you care what I do? Fact is, plain and simple, I'm the best the AWE has to offer and it's only a matter of time until I prove that. Sooner, rather than later, The Franchise will rise to the top, and claim his spot as the true Heavyweight Champion.... and that's a fact, JACK-ASS!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

[[With that, Douglas rears his head back some more and laughs that evil laugh, before we fade to our match.]]


Shawn Michaels w/ Torrie Wilson
vs. Randy Orton w/ Stacy Keibler

Title on the line: None

Stipulation: Over The Top Rope Strip Match

[[The match starts with both Orton and HBK already in the ring, Torrie in the corner of Michaels and Stacy in the corner of Orton! The bout begins, and Orton goes on the attack early! A few punches on HBK, and whips him across the ring, he comes back and Orton connects with a back-body drop close enough to the ropes to send HBK over! HBK lands on the apron! Orton isn't aware of this, and starts parading around! Finally, he notices, runs at HBK but Michaels grabs Orton by the hair and drags him over to the top rope and to the floor, costing Stacy a piece of clothing! Every man's attention is turned to Stacy as she removes her top, leaving just a bra. Orton slides back in the ring as HBK re-enters himself, and the match continues. HBK whips Orton to the corner, and as Orton bounces out HBK connects with a flying back-elbow, knocking Orton down! HBK brings Randy up, pushes him to the ropes and clotheslines him out!!! Stacy has to give up another item of clothing!! This time, it's a small dress she's wearing. Stacy now has only a bra and panties on... but the match continues?!? Both men are back in, and HBK's eyes-widen at the sight of Stacy half-undressed!!. Orton slaps Michaels in the face, which snaps HBK back to it and pisses him off! HBK steps back, and SWEET CHIN MUSIC!!!! Ortons brain is rattled!! HBK grabs him by the back of the head, and launches him out of the ring, making Stacy give up the final piece of clothing. Before she does though, Torrie runs around and shoves her into the ring, making her do it for everyone to see. Stacy won't strip, but HBK gets that cocky grin about him, and pulls down Stacy's panties - she' standing there in a bra and g-string!!! HBK laughs, and leaves the ring. He and Torrie Wilson head up the ramp together, laughing and pointing at Stacy in the ring, near naked, and Randy ringside, loser!.]]

Winner: 'HBK' Shawn Michaels


[[We cut backstage, and we've managed to get ourselves somehow in the middle of some commotion. We can hear a lot of screaming, yelling, and metal bouncing off metal. Our cameras are running around trying to pick up the action, and finally we can...... coming around the corner and hearing...]]

Angered Deep Voice: Aaaaaaaaand.... THAT - YOU SON OF A BITCH!!!!!!

[[It's The Big Show! And he's drilling The Road Dogg in the skull with a chair!! Dogg has been busted open, and is crawling around leaving a trail of blood behind him. The Big Show picks him up around the throat, and shoves him against a near-by dumpster.]]

The Big Show: You would know the first THING 'bout being Extreme........ so I'm gunna' hafta' show ya'.

[[The Big Show brings Road Dogg to his feet, picks him up, and hangs his body over the edge of the dumpster. He then closes the lid, and walks away. He then appears a few moments later on a platform next to the dumpster, so he's standing level with the lid. Just then, he's interrupted.]]

Another Voice: DON'T YOU DARE!!!!!!.

[[Big Show stops, and turns around. Behind him comes walking up Paul Heyman.]]

Paul Heyman: One more step, Big Show, and I'll have you forfeit your spot in the match tonight......

[[Big Show is thinking, hurt Road Dogg now and lose that spot, or keep the spot and Dogg is spared... Decisions!!!.]]

Paul Heyman: Ya' know, Paul, I'm disgusted with you. I thought you'd be better than this.

The Big Show: Paul, Look.. this is EXTREME like you wanted.

Paul Heyman: What a load of crap, Big Show. This isn't EXTREME. Extreme is you fighting five men at a time. Extreme, is getting yourself in situations no other man could fight out of. Extreme, is taking on 10 other men and kickin' all their asses, putting any physical or mental pain behind you. THAT.... is Extreme.

The Big Show: What are you tryin' to say!?

Paul Heyman: That you better let Road Dogg go, cause if you don't, Road Dogg won't be able to compete, and neither will you and Booker T will automatically get a shot at the X-treme Title.

[[The Big Show rests his foot on the lid of the dumpster, where Road Dogg must be lying still.]]

The Big Show: What if I decide I'll jump on this, and CRUSH Road Dogg like the useless bag of bones he is!?

Paul Heyman: Then, then...... I'm going to....... suspend you INDEFINITELY........ is THAT what you want, Paul!? Is it!?

[[As Big Show is thinking about it, Road Dogg slips away from under the lid of the dumpster, without Big Show knowing. The Big Show, decides he'll teach Road Dogg a lesson.... thinking he's still in the dumpster, he jumps up on it with all his weight.]]

Paul Heyman: THAT'S IT, YOU'RE DONE FOR!!!!! YOU'RE SUSPENDED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE!!!!!!!!!

The Big Show: I DON'T CARE, LOOK I'VE JUST CRUSHED RO-

[[Big Show notices Road Dogg isn't under the lid, but he's infact stumbling away in the distance trying to shake the cobwebs, as Big Show is standing there, now suspended, looking like an ass.]]

The Big Show: Damn him, damn you too, Paul. DAMN YOU BOTH!!!.

Paul Heyman: Now, get the hell outta' my arena..... oh, and by the way, have a great night, I know I will.....

[[Heyman just smiles at Big Show, who's fuming red with anger, as we cut from there.]]


[[Backstage elsewhere we go now, and we find The Hurricane just leaving the arena.]]

[[He's heading out to the parking lot, as we get a camera with him.]]

The Hurricane: Holy hand grenades, look at the time! My Hurri-sense are telling me I must leave.

[[Hurricane is looking around the dark, eerie parking lot.]]

The Hurricane: The world is not safe, and my Hurri-senses are tellin' me trouble is upon the horizon.

[[Hurricane does that arm-around-the-body pose.]]

The Hurricane: TO THE HURRI-CYCLE!!!!

[[Hurricane runs over and jumps on his motorcycle, cute little green color and all. Anyway, as he's just moving off, a semi-truck roars into view and only JUST misses The Hurricane. He slams on his brakes, and he skids to a halt.]]

The Hurricane: WHOA!!! Who dares to put the fath of the world at stake!? I must reveal the identity of this un-educated super-duper evil-do'er..........

[[The Hurricane jumps off his cycle.]]

The Hurricane: Who goes there????

[[Our superhero walks around to the drivers door, and he's about to open it when it swings open and CRACK!!! Knocks Hurricane off his feet. The driver jumps out, and it's the guy wearing the ski-mask we've been seeing over the last 2 weeks. He had a lead pipe in his hand and beats on Hurricane with it. After some vicious shots, the man looks up and notices some people are running over so he runs off.... leaving Hurricane a little worse for wear, but the kid mumbles.]]

The Hurricane: Wassupwiddat?!

[[We fade.]]


Booker T vs. Road Dogg

Title on the line: None

Stipulation: X-Treme Championship #1 Contendership

[[CAN YOU DIG IT, SUCKA??!? hits, as Booker T makes his way down the ramp, and into the ring.... much to the fans delight! Next.... OH YOU DIDN'T KNOW??! YOUR ASS BETTA CALLLLLL SOMEBODY!!!!!.... and out comes The Road Dogg, Jesse James! He runs down the ramp, slides into, and gives Book a crotch-chop. The bell rings, and this match is underway. Both men tie up, Road Dogg breaks it and grabs Booker in a side-headlock. He is working on Book's neck, before releasing and hitting a knife-edge chop. Book is pissed off, and hits one back on Dogg. Book then goes for a jumping back heel kick, but Road Dogg ducks and connects with a punch on the head of Book, he lines him up, and connects again.... Dogg steps back, does a little shig, a little boogie-woogie, jiggy-wiggy get down tonight!.... and Smack! Punches him in the head! Book hits the mat, Road Dogg leans off the ropes and.... Shaky Knee Drop!!! Road Dogg makes the cover already, 1....... 2...... kick out from Booka! Both men are up, and Book gets the advantage this time, whipping Road Dogg into the corner. Book charges in, but Dogg ducks out at the last second and Book hits the turnbuckel with his head. Dogg ducks behind Book, grabs the arm and hooks it in, grabs the other arm..... a little thrust of the hips... PUMP-HANDLE SLAM!!!! This one should be over!... 1........ 2.......3.]]

Winner: Road Dogg


[[We cut backstage to the AWE production truck. We've got screens all over the place, wires and cables spread all over the show like mad. Production assists are busy flicking buttons, moving knobs up and down the scales and talking in their jargon. As they're busy working away, a couple of the higher-up producers are taking a break (Their names, Michael and Dan.), whilst still overlooking the project.]]

Michael: What about that Stacy Keibler shoot earlier?

Dan: I know! Like.... WOW!!.

Michael: Tell me about it, what I'd pay to be the guy shooting that...

[[As they're discussing things, well - Stacy Keibler, the production truck door swings open, and in walks a fuming Paul Heyman.]]

Paul Heyman: Right, who's in charge here tonight?!?

Michael: I am.

Paul Heyman: Good, I need to speak with your boys.

Michael:l: Okaaay....

Paul Heyman: Everyone listen up!!... Alright, tell me this. That Vince thing earlier, who's idea was that?

[[There's no response.]]

Paul Heyman: I want to know, who allowed that Vince McMahon promo to go to air tonight?!?

[[Again, nothing.]]

Paul Heyman: DAMN IT!!..... SOMEONE HAD BETTER TELL ME - OR ELSE THERE'LL BE TROUBLE!!!!....

[[Still.... nothing....]]

Paul Heyman: Okay, FINE!!!. When I find out who's responsible, they'd better have another job lined up because they will not... I repeat... will NOT be working for me, that's a guarantee.

[[Heyman turns and leaves, slamming the production truck door behind him as he leaves. Wow! Someone within the AWE is siding with Vince McMahon, but who?!?!?!?.]]


[[We cut elsewhere now, where we find our backstage reporter, Terri, standing by.]]

Terri: Ladies and gentlemen, I'm standing by with one of the two men who'll be competing here tonight, in this very arena, for a shot to face Goldberg next Sunday at Crash 'n' Burn. He is none other....... than 'The Game'... Triple H!!!.

[[At this time, the camera moves around slightly and we see HHH standing by Terri with an intense look on his face.]]

Terri: Hunter, tonight is your chance.......

Triple H: You're damn right it is, Terri. Tonight is my chance, my opportunity, my moment to shine and my moment to kick Taz's ass liked it's never been kicked before. Taz has a big mouth for such a small guy, and it's about time someone around here - and tonight it happens to be me - shut it for him, for good.

Terri: Well, Hunter, Taz has had some success lately, I mean he's seen a lot of the spot-light. Don't you think Taz will be wanting this win just as much as you?

Triple H: Stupid question, Terri, it really deserves a stupid answer, or even better a slap in the face. But that's not what I'm here to do. I'm here to prove to the entire world that I want that AWE World Heavyweight Title more than anyone else in this business..... I'm here to prove that no matter what Taz says, and no matter how much he psyche's himself up for this match........ I'll be there to tear his world apart, and to shatter any dreams he once had. Simply 'cause I want to.

Terri: Okay, well Goldberg....... Crash 'n' Burn..... would you fancy yourself as a possibility?

Triple H: To do what?

Terri: Win?

Triple H: No...

Terri: No?!?!

Triple H: That's right, I don't want to get to Crash 'n' Burn simply to win. I want to HU-MIL-I-ATE Goldberg. I want to DESTROY Goldberg. I want to hurt Goldberg..... SO BAD..... that he'll retire from the A-Dub-E..... that is if I don't do it for him. So you'll soon see, Terri... within 10 days, not only will I be the one going to Crash 'n' Burn to face Goldberg, but I'll also be the one walking out of there the NEW..... AWE World Heavyweight Champion...... Because I AAAM THE GAME AND I AAAM....... THAT DAMN GOOD!!!!!!!!!!

[[With that, Hunter turns and leaves Terri. Wow! Hunter is ready!!. We cut from there.]]

A few punches, two kicks.... and knee later, and Douglas is on the mat. Raven is stomping away on Douglas, really stomping a mud-hole in him.

Winner: Raven


[[We return backstage as we see Steve Corino discussing his match that occurred earlier tonight.....]]

Steve Corino: Jack..... that's a load of bull what happened earlier, Christian is a cheating bastard, and he knows it!

Jack Victory: It's a shame a man with so much talent has to waste it in the ring, by cheating like that.

Steve Corino: But don't worry Jack, don't you fret just yet my man..... next week at the pay-per-view, I got a big time surprise for everyone...

Jack Victory: What is it....

Steve Corino: Well I just got back from Paul Heymans office, and he has so kindly granted me a shot with Lance Storm, and Storm HAS to put his Extreme Title shot on the line. Jack it's only a matter of time until I'm wearing gold around my waist...

Jack Victory: Wow Steve..... that's awesome........

Steve Corino: And i'll be damned if I don't make a good champion...... cause when it's all said and done.... Steve Corino, is going to bring back the old school ways of doing things!

Jack Victory: HIGH SPOT!

[[The two stare at each other and laugh as we fade out.......]]


[[We return backstage where we see Shawn Michaels and Torrie walking to their car hand and hand. Suddenly Terri rushes up behind them...]]

Terri: Excuse me....... Shawn.......

[[Shawn turns around and notices Terri.....]]

Shawn Michaels: Oh hey Terri...

Terri: I don't mean to interrupt, but...... now that you have been confirmed to be in the Intercontinental championship tournament.... do you have any concerns?

Shawn Michaels: Why would I be concerned?

Terri: Well it is 8 of AWE's finest....

Shawn Michaels: Terri I respect the fact that this is your job, but let's be honest, only one man can walk out, and not one of the other 7 guys can beat Shawn Michaels on his worst day. The fact is, now that I'm back..... you're not going to see any weak Shawn Michaels, you're going to get the real deal..... your going to get THE SHOWSTOPPA, THE ICON, THE MAIN EVENT! And Terri..... within a few weeks, You'll be looking at the brand new Intercontinental champion, C'mon Torrie let's go...

Brock Lesnar vs. Jeff Hardy

Title on the line: None

Stipulation: U.S. Championship #1 Contendership / Ladder Match

[[United States Number One Contendership is on the line here folks! In the ring already is Jeff Hardy, he came out during the commercial break. Next, Brock Lesnar's theme hits and out walks the Next... Big.... Thing!!... he's a monster! He heads down the ramp, walking past the ladder that's set up on the outside. As he's standing at ringside looking at the ladder, Jeff Hardy leaps over the ropes and connects with a flying cross body! The crowd was wow'ed by that move! Jeff is back up, and is beating on Lesnar on the outside, ramming his head into the steel steps. Hardy lets Lesnar fall to the floor, whilst he grabs the ladder and slides it half into the ring. Jeff moves around, picks Lesnar up and takes him over to the half of the ladder sticking out from the ring. Jeff goes to pick Lesnar up, but Brock blocks it, grabs Hardy over his shoulder and SPINE-BUSTER ON THE LADDER!!!!! YEEOUCH!!! That musta' hurt!!. Lesnar slides the ladder into the ring now, as Jeff lies on the outside holding his lower back in pain. Lesnar picks him up, gets him in a bear-hug and RAMS him into the ring apron..... and AGAIN...... and a THIRD time...... Lesnar then drops Jeff like a sack of potato's, and rolls into the ring. It looks like Brock wants to get this match over with early, he's setting the ladder up in the middle, and is trying to line it up, as Jeff rolls into the ring. Brock manages to scale two steps, but Jeff comes running past and drags Lesnar down with a neck-breaker!. This could be Jeff's chance!! He is quick back to his feet, and starts scaling the other side!! Jeff is going up there, he's up..... and up..... he's near the top, but Lesnar is back to his feet...... He's touching the title, OHHHHH!! Lesnar just PUSHED OVER THE LADDER..... CRUNCH!!!! Jeff goes SPLAT on the canvas, and Brock is just standing there, proud of himself. Lesnar sets the ladder up in the middle again, but leaves it there, this time going back for Jeff. He picks up Hardy, pushes him to the corner, and clothesline to the outside!! Lesnar now, seeks the opportunity to become the US #1 Contender!! He starts to climb the ladder as Jeff is on his knees on the outside! Here goes Brock!! Can he do it?!?!.... Jeff is up on the apron, he'd better move quick!! Lesnar is almost at the top, and it seems Jeff has a second wind, he's moving with cat-like speed. Jeff is perched on the top turnbuckle, what's he going to do from here??! WHISPER IN THE WIND AGAINST THE LADDER - KNOCKING IT OVER!!!! JEFF HARDY IS SUICIDAL!! JEFF KNOCKED THE LADDER DOWN BUT SACRIFICED HIS OWN BODY!!!! Both Lesnar and Jeff Hardy lay motionless on the mat, the fans screaming after that last huge move from the Hardy Boy. Hard puts his arm over Lesnar's chest. 1..... 2..... 3!!!! HARD DID IT, HE BEAT THE NEXT BIG THING.......]]

Winner: Jeff Hardy


[[We cut to a backstage area, the section where the AWE Superstars leave and have a private access to their cars and/or parking lot. On our screens the cameraman heads outside, and we're following Bill Goldberg!! He's leaving the area after his match earlier in the night, and it looks like he's finished for the night. As he gets to his car, he swings the door open but notices there's a note. He picks it up, and it reads 'JUST ANOTHA VICTIM'.]]

Goldberg: What the ................

[[Goldberg looks up, and looks over his shoulder to see if anyone is around, and as he does..... WHAM!!!! EVEN-FLOW DDT!!!! IT'S RAVEN!!!! SHIT!!!! HE JUST DDT'ED GOLDBERG ON THE CONCRETE!!!! What a sick, twisted individual.]]

Raven: Certainly not the sharpest knife in the drawer, Goldberg - are you?

[[As Raven stands over Goldberg, Taz and Russo can be heard laughing as they come into view.]]

Taz: I told you, look at the note, Rus! Look at it!

[[Russo picks up the note and reads it out loud.]]

Vince Russo: "Just Another Victim"

Taz: Stupid mutha' fucka'.... I warned him. He wouldn't listen.

Vince Russo: Maybe, just maybe...... he might listen to this her Slugg'a?

[[Russo pulls out his Louisville Slugger, as Raven and Taz chuckle. Russo then starts beating the crap out of Goldberg with his bat, as Taz and Raven just look on. After Russo has really done a number on the World Champ, he leans the ball-bat on his shoulder, turns, and walks off, proud of himself. We fade out with a shot of Goldberg laying there in pain.]]


[[We go elsewhere backstage now, more accurately to Paul Heyman's office. The door swings open, and in walks Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley. She's looking around for Paul, but the man isn't there. From an adjacant room enters Dawn Marie, who confronts Stephanie.]]

Stephanie McMahon: Dawn, I'm looking for Paul.

Dawn Marie: He's not here.

Stephanie McMahon: I know, but do you know where he is.

Dawn Marie: Sorry, I don't. Is there a problem?

Stephanie McMahon: No, I wanted to talk to him about Brock Lesnar.

Dawn Marie: Talk to me, what is it that you need help with...... after all, when Paul isn't here, I aaaaam the deputy.

Stephanie McMahon: Oh, uhm, okay..... well..... It'd probably be better still talking to Paul.

Dawn Marie: Steph, just ask me, and I'll help.

Stephanie McMahon: Alright, well, now that Big show is fired, that leaves an opening in the tournament, and I want Brock in the Intercontinental Championship Tournament...... can you put him in?

Dawn Marie: Hmmmm.... sure.

Stephanie McMahon: You can??!

Dawn Marie: Yeah.... I can.

Stephanie McMahon: Okay, well, thank-you!. I have to go let Brock know......

[[Moments before Exile goes off air, the AWE-tron kicks up, and up on the screen again plays, with a voice over.]]

"The following is a paid advertisement by Vincent K. McMahon."

[[Wow! It's another McMahon segment!! On the screen, we see nothing but pitch black, but a evil laugh can be heard. The scene then fades up a little, and we can see Vince McMahon's dimly lit face laughing hard. In between laughs, he manages to speak.]]

Vince McMahon: Paul, next week..... I'll be at Crash 'n' Burn. And believe-you-me, Paul - you won't know what hit you!.

[[More laughter follows, before then scene fades back to black from McMahon's laughing face and a voice over.]]

"The proceeding was a paid advertisement by Vincent K. McMahon."

[[Then we fade out with the AWE logo up on screen......... Next week folks is show-time! Crash N' Burn - we're goin' to rock the foundation of the AWE as it's known today! But until then - take care and GOOD NIGHT!!!........]]
