-Sabu vs Steve Corino-Match Four of Five
-Halfway through the match, things aren’t looking good for Steve Corino so he
rolls to the outside. While the referee isn’t looking, he removes his trademark cowboy boot. Sabu bounces off the ropes inside the ring and runs toward Corino looking for a baseball slide. The King of old school moves out of the way and Sabu slides all the way to the outside. He’s on his knees when Corino clobbers him with the heel of his boot! He does this swiftly and the referee doesn’t even notice. Corino slides Sabu back into the ring and puts his boot back on before getting in himself. He steps through the ropes and walks stealthily over to Sabu’s body and drops down, driving his elbow right into Sabu’s throat! Steve Corino signals for it! He goes wild in the ring and the fans don’t have a clue as to what he’s going to do. He pulls Sabu up, sends him bounces off the ropes and catches him with a....with a...DEVASTATING HEADLOCK! The crowd boos as they were thinking that Corino was going to do some fancy move. They keep booing until Sabu sends Corino off the ropes! Corino comes back and gets nails with an altered spinning heel kick from Sabu. Sabu then lifts Corino up and plants him with the emerald fusion. He jumps onto the top rope and bounces off, landing a huge moonsault onto Corino! 1...2...3! Score: Corporation-Two; Office-Two
-Cyrus/Stephanie Segment
-Cyrus comes out angry about Sabu winning, and claiming that he cheated. He gets booed like no other...as usual. Cyrus believes that the Corporation should pride themselves on winning matches in a fair manner, just like the Office does. Cyrus says he really does feel sorry for the Corporation because...it’s pretty obvious. The Office is OBVIOUSLY the classier of the two factions, it’s like it’s written in stone or something. Just like how the Office is going to win the best of five series at the next OCW PPV, Leveling the Foundation!
-This of course brings one Stephanie McMahon out. She disagrees with Cyrus, so we know everything is as it normally is. She tells Cyrus and the world that the Corporation winning the FIRST best of five series wasn’t just a fluke, and come PPV time they’ll prove it. She says that Cyrus can talk all he wants, but he won’t be able to back any of it up when the time comes.
-Cyrus then disagrees with that. He says the Office has nothing that they need to back up because everything he’s said is the truth. Stephanie tells him that the truth is sometimes more of an opinion subject. Cyrus just looks confused. Cyrus then says that they need to make match number five a little more important. He wants to add some stipulations. Steph thinks for a minute, then tells him that it’s on. Cyrus tells Steph to go first.
-Stephanie says that if Steve Corino loses, that Cyrus will have to fight Kevin Nash...on the Monday Night Madness after Leveling the Foundation...in a PANTS on a POLE MATCH!! Cyrus would have to fight Nash off in order to get his pants which would be hanging from the pole! Cyrus is appalled! Cyrus tries to get Stephanie to make a different stipulation, but she refuses.
-Cyrus says fine, but since he is a classy gentleman, he won’t respond with the same genre of match. Instead, he’ll pick a more WRESTLING oriented stipulation. After all, this is a wrestling show, not a strip club...though he knows all the ladies out there would like to see him with his pants off. Cyrus mentions that one of his new favorite wrestlers isn’t on the PPV card right now. So...if Sabu loses...this one of his new favorite wrestlers joins the main event, making it a TRIPLE THREAT match for the OCW World Title! Stephanie tries to ask who the wrestler is, but Cyrus’ music hits and he leaves abruptly.
-Backstage-
-Droz is in his locker room. He talks about his match with the Macho Man coming up very soon. He mocks Macho and mocks all the “old school crap” he’s been talking about. One thing is for sure though...Droz is going to give Macho an old school beating he’ll never forget!
-Lita vs Molly(c)-Women’s Title
-Lita immediately runs at Molly. Molly picks her up and pancakes her to the mat. Both women get up and Molly snapmares Lita, then dropkicks her in the back of the head! 1...2...kickout by Lita. Later on Lita mounts her come back with a head scissors for a two count only. Lita then nails the Twist of Fate. She goes to the top turnbuckle only to be crotched by Molly. Molly pulls her backwards into the tree of woe. Lita escapes before Molly can continue the beating. Molly hits a cradle suplex...1...2...kickout by Lita. Molly goes to the top rope and hits the Molly Go Round...1...2...3! Molly retains the OCW Women’s Title! After the match Lita hits the Twist of Fate and her moonsault, but Christian comes out to help Molly! Christian hits Lita with the Unprettier before helping Molly to the back.
-Cyrus’ Office-
-Kurt Angle and William Regal are sitting in Cyrus’ office when he enters. Cyrus seems a little worried about the PPV...and his pants being displayed on a pole...and Kevin Nash being in the ring with him. Needless to say, he tries to hide his nervousness and tries to act cool. He says that Angle and Regal have a match coming soon. He suggests that they start the pay per view a LITTLE early if they know..what he means...
-Droz vs Macho Man-KOTDM Tournament Semi-Finals
-Toward the end of this long Deathmatch, Droz pulls out Macho’s patented flaming chair and mocks him. Droz tells the bloodied Macho Man to get up, so he tries to get up. Droz kicks him right back down though. Macho gets to his knees and begs Droz to hit him with the chair, right on the forehead. He begs Droz some more and Droz just laughs. Right before Droz hits him with the flaming chair, Macho low blows him making him drop the chair! Macho gets up and whips Droz right into the barbed wire ropes! The barbed wire becomes unattached to the ring posts and Droz falls to the concrete in a heap. Droz tries to get out of the tangled barbed wire and Macho Man picks up the flaming chair. He goes to the outside just as Droz gets to his feet, still wrapped in barbed wire. CRACK! Macho nails Droz with the flaming chair! Droz looks to be unconscious, but the Macho Man isn’t finished. He pulls a table out from under the ring and sets it up. Then he pulls a bag out along with an eight foot ladder. He sets the ladder up near the table and then unties the bag. He holds it high in the air as he pours the contents out, spilling all over the table...revealing it to be a bag full of thousands of thumbtacks! Droz manages to free himself from the barbed wire, but Macho rolls him right onto the table. Macho starts to climb the side of the ladder nearest Droz and the table, and also pretty close to the ring apron. Droz gets up off the table and onto the ring apron. He punches the Macho Man and then jumps onto the ladder. Droz ddts him off the ladder and through the table covered in thumbtacks! 1...2...3! Droz has beaten the Macho Man! Droz advances to the finals of the King of the Deathmatch Tournament!
-Backstage(c)-Kalissa LeBlanc
-Kalissa LeBlanc pulls Kevin Nash over for an interview. She asks Nash about his match with Raven at the pay per view, and his match tonight. Raven interrupts and starts babbling on about something that seemingly no one can understand. Nash just looks at Raven and then laughs. Raven spits in Nash’s face and walks away. All of a sudden...CRACK! Kevin Nash goes down from the chairshot from behind! Kalissa runs away and the cameras reveal Christian as the culprit! Christian smashes the chair across Nash’s back a few more times and starts yelling at him. Christian shrieks that he’s the real champion, he’s the uncrowned champion! He’s sick of being held back and he’s going to take it into his own hands! Christian nails Nash one more time with the chair, just for good measure. He turns around and Stephanie McMahon comes walking around the corner. She realizes what he’s just done and starts yelling at him. She tells him that after his match tonight, he’s suspended without pay until further notice!! Christian just about hits her with the chair, but instead he throws it down and storms off. Stephanie checks on Nash.
-Mikey Whipwreck, Tajiri, and Edge vs William Regal, Kurt Angle, and Justin Credible-
-This match is surprisingly short. Angle, Regal, Whipwreck, and Tajiri brawl on the outside. While the referee is distracted by them, Chyna brings a chair into the ring. She goes to hit Edge with it, but instead nails Justin Credible! Edge knocks her out of the ring and makes the cover...1...2...3! Mikey Whipwreck, Yoshihiro Tajiri, and Edge pick up the win!
-Backstage-
-Justin Credible storms down the hallway with Chyna chasing after him. She apologizes repeatedly, explain that she meant to hit Edge, but he moved. Credible doesn’t listen and disappears around the corner. Chyna is furious. Cyrus comes out of his office and bumps into Chyna. He realizes its her and starts yelling at her for costing Angle and Regal the match. He yells at her telling her that they can’t go into the pay per view with their opponents getting a win over them! Chyna tries to explain but Cyrus interrupts her. She starts to walk away and Cyrus says “Never send a woman to do a man’s job.” She stops, turns around, and decks Cyrus right there!! She tells him “Never send a pussy to yell at a woman who can bench press more than twice his weight,” and walks away.
-Taz vs Rob Van Dam-KOTDM Tournament Semi-Finals
-Taz attacks RVD from behind with a baseball bat wrapped in barbed wire during RVD’s entrance. Taz continues to clobber RVD with it until RVD really isn’t moving anymore. Taz disappears behind the entrance curtain and comes back out with a wheelbarrow. This is no normal wheelbarrow though, this is a wheelbarrow wrapped in barbed wire! The wire kind of makes a net over the top of the barrow! Taz grabs RVD by the hair and puts his head between his legs. RVD counters and back body drops Taz onto the cold, hard steel. RVD disappears behind the curtain, then reappears with a chair in hand. He tosses it to Taz and then nails him with a Van Daminator! 1...2...Taz kicks out. RVD jumps up and grabs a hold of the scaffolding holding the OCW Tron. He pulls himself onto it and points down at Taz. He does the fingers saying, “R...V...D,” then turns around and jumps off with a moonsault! Only one problem though...Taz moves and RVD crashes onto the steel stage! It takes Taz a minute or so to get up, but when he does he immediately pulls RVD up. He puts RVD’s head between his legs and lifts him up powerbombing him down into the wheelbarrow wrapped in barbed wire!! Taz then dumps the wheelbarrow over and pins RVD...1...2...RVD kicks out! Eventually the both of them start climbing up to the top of the OCW entrance way. RVD ddts Taz on the top, and the whole thing suddenly shifts spilling both RVD and Taz off of it into the backstage area!!! They probably fell twenty five feet! Their silhouettes were seen through the OCW Tron as they fell and then a HUMONGOUS CRASH was heard! By the time the cameras get to the back, the paramedics are already there. Neither Taz nor RVD is moving and there is a lot of commotion. Many of the boys look very worried as RVD and Taz are loaded into separate ambulances and driven off.
-The Nest of the Flock-
-Chyna enters “the Nest” looking very angry and Raven is waiting for her. He tells her he saw what she did and that he isn’t pleased to say the least. He starts yelling at her when she tries to explain herself and he tells her NEVER to do it again...or else she’ll pay a price that not even she can imagine. She tries to walk away but he grabs her by the hair and tells her not to turn her back on him. The Flock can’t have people like HER costing them precious matches. She better watch out or she’ll get herself into more trouble than she could possibly think of. Raven tells her to keep to herself from now on, stay in her own business. He tells her especially not to come out during his match tonight.
-Backstage-
-Droz finishes cleaning the blood off himself and getting a gash in his leg stitched up. He heads down the hall and turns into Cyrus’ Office. Cyrus is a little startled but less so than normally. Droz asks Cyrus what they’re going to do about the King of the Deathmatch Tournament situation. Cyrus says that he really doesn’t know, but he just got word that Taz and RVD are fine, just extremely banged up. They won’t be able to compete at the PPV. Droz is thrilled. He tells Cyrus that that makes him the Deathmatch champion once again! The title is back where it belongs. Cyrus shrugs and willingly agrees. Just then Stephanie barged into Cyrus’ Office and tells him about Christian’s suspension. Cyrus gets upset and tells her that she can’t suspend him! She tells him that she just did...after tonight, he’s gone until she says so! Cyrus says fine, then tells her to congratulate the new Deathmatch Champion, Droz. Droz extends a hand but Stephanie just stares at him. She tells him she’s got a present for him. Droz asks what it is. Stephanie tells him that the Macho Man will face him at the PPV for the Deathmatch title since neither RVD nor Taz will be able to compete. She tells Cyrus and Droz, “Merry Christmas,” and leaves the room. Cyrus and Droz are furious!
-Raven and Christian vs Kevin Nash and Hak-
-Hak has the upper hand against Raven near the end of the match. He goes for the
brainbuster ddt, but Raven slides off and hooks Hak from behind. Hak sidesteps Raven and nails a russian legsweep. He goes to the top turnbuckle and leaps off with a legdrop. 1...2...Raven kicks out. Hak tags in Nash and Nash waits for Raven to get up. He dares Raven to come close to him. Raven charges only to get smacked to the mat with a huge big boot. Christian gets in the ring and Nash big boots him down too. Raven attacks Nash from behind, but Nash elbows him in the face, then slams him to the mat with a sidewalk slam. Christian swings at Nash, but Nash hooks him and tosses him over the top rope to the floor with a super nasty big daddy half nelson slam!! Nash then covers Raven who is still down...1...2...Raven kicks out. Nash pulls Raven up and hooks him for the half nelson slam. Raven kicks his leg up and nails a low blow which the referee doesn’t see. Raven then drop toe holds Nash face first into the second turnbuckle! He grabs Nash in a headlock and drives him to the mat with a bulldog! 1...2...Nash kicks out just as Hak gets in the ring. The referee is then occupied by trying to get Hak out of the ring. Christian slides a chair into the ring and Raven picks it up. Raven goes to hit Nash with it, but Nash big boots it right back into his face!! Christian gets back up onto the apron but Nash charges at him and clotheslines him off. Christian flies backward and hits the control barrier! Nash then tags in Hak. He bounces off the top rope and lands on Raven with a moonsault! 1...2...Raven kicks out yet again. Hak picks Raven up and beats on him in the corner. He lifts Raven up in suplex position and drops him on his head with the brainbuster ddt! Nash asks Hak to tag him in, and he does. Nash comes in and starts stomping on Raven. He sets Raven up for the jacknife powerbomb, but Raven pushes him away and quickly tags Christian in. Christian is very reluctant. He goes to tie up with Nash, but kicks him in the thigh instead. He continues to stomp on Nash’s thigh, then whips Nash into the ropes. Nash bounces back and Christian nails him with a dropkick. They both get back up and Christian hits his falling reverse ddt...1...2...Nash kicks out. Nash bounces off the ropes and goes for another big boot, but Christian ducks! Nash bounces off the other side of ropes and Raven knees him in the back. Nash stumbles toward Christian and Christian nails the Unprettier! 1...Hak gets in the ring to break up the count but Raven gets in and knocks him to the outside. 2...Christian holds Nash down with all his might! Right before three, Raven grabs Christian by the hair and pulls him off Nash!! Raven kicks Christian then evenflows him to the mat! He pulls Nash up and evenflows him! Hak gets back in and Raven evenflows him! Raven covers Nash and forces the ref to count...1...2...3!!! Christian barely can make it to his feet and he starts yelling at Raven wondering why he evenflowed him. Raven just stares at him, then slides out of the ring and goes to the back. Christian continues to yell at him and Raven just ignores him. Christian is angry that he didn’t get the pin, then Stephanie appears on the OCW Tron. She reminds Christian that he’s suspended and he needs to leave the building at once. Christian is still confused as to why Raven turned on him. When he realizes that Stephanie just told him that he really is suspended, he flips out. He goes to the outside, grabs a chair, and brings it back in. Nash gets to his feet but Christian completely takes his head off with the chair. Hak gets up and Christian hits him with the chair twice before he gets back down. Christian then beats on Nash some more with the chair before leaving the ring...for what could be the last time...
