THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE DARK ROOM AND SOME HEAVY BREATHING CAN BE HEARD AS THE SONG STOPS.
"And now..... TWF Entertainment presents..........
THE SCOPE IN NORFOLK COMES INTO THE SHOT AND FIREWORKS AND PYRO EXPLODE OFF THE SET AS THE SOUND OF OVER 12,000 FANS SCREAMING AND CHEERING IS HEARD.
THE SET CONTAINS THE ANARCHY RULZ LOGO AND THE STAGE IS A GIANT COMPUTER KEYBOARD.
THE SHOT GOES TO THE BROADCAST POSITION WHERE JIM ROSS IS WITH JERRY LAWLER. LAWLER HAS A LAPTOP COMPUTER WITH HIM, AND IS USING IT.
Jim Ross: "Listen to the eruption out of these fans in Norfolk, King! You know they all have made their votes"!
Jerry Lawler: "The voting is going all the way up until match time, J.R., I'm making mine now"!
J.R.: "This unique concept was introduced last year to tremendous success and our devoted fans have been given a chance to play general manager for a night"!
Lawler: "I don't know what to pick..... which weapon do I want to see Chris Tirpak and Tatanka beat the hell out of each other with"?!
THE FANS CHEER AS THE WORLD's GREATEST TAG TEAM's MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT WITH THE RAMPAGE TAG TEAM TITLES AROUND THEIR WAISTS.
J.R.: "We have three titles on the line tonight, King, and this is one of two where the champion doesn't even know who they will be defending against"!
Lawler: This is so exciting, J.R., one of three tag teams is about to come out from the back for the chance of a lifetime"!
THE SHOT GOES TO THE BACKSTAGE AREA, WHERE EYE SPY, LANCE CADE AND TREVOR MURDOCH AND THE HOLLYWOOD BLONDES ARE SHOWN WITH TODD GRISHAM.
Todd Grisham: "Okay fans, in moments, the results of our first poll of the night will be revealed. One of these three tag teams will go out to challenge the World's Greatest Tag Team for the titles..... who is it gonna be"?
THE RESULTS OF THE POLL POP UP, AND EYE SPY IS AN EASY WINNER WITH 54% OF THE VOTE.
"PICTURES" BY SYSTEM OF A DOWN HITS AND EYE SPY MAKES THEIR WAY TOWARDS THE RING WITH A VERY EXCITED CANDICE MICHELLE.
Lawler: "It's Eye Spy, J.R."!
J.R.: "Well I have to admit, our fans didn't have much to vote for here, as all 3 teams are not popular amongst our fan base, but they have given us a WrestleMania rematch"!
Lawler: "There was a lot of people, including myself, that thought Eye Spy could beat Haas and Benjamin and they get another oppurtunity tonight"!
J.R.: "There you see Alex Shelley setting up that tripod but I don't think these guys should be focused on what kind of shots they can get with that camera.... Haas and Benjamin are one of the better teams we've seen in years"!
Rampage Tag Team Title Match Challengers: Eye Spy w/ Candice Michelle vs. World's Greatest Tag Team The WrestleMania rematch started with the bell sounding, and M.X. Ogden getting into the ring with Shelton Benjamin. Two of the better athletes in the TWF exchanged in a great series, that started with Ogden ducking a clothesline and drilling Benjamin with a roundhouse kick to the head. Ogden got down on the mat and slapped on a dragon sleeper, but Benjamin broke free by kicking his leg up and catching Ogden right in the head. Off an irish whip to the corner, Shelton exploded onto Ogden with his version of the Stinger splash. Haas tagged into the match, and focused on the lower back of Ogden. After a side backbreaker, Haas locked in a bow and arrow but Alex Shelley came in and stomped on the head of Haas to break the hold. Ogden rolled to his corner as referee Chad Patton was getting Shelley out of the ring, and he officially tagged Shelley into the match. Shelley came in and pushed Haas into the corner, kicking him several times in the abdomen. But when Shelley went for an irish whip, Haas reversed it right into a short clothesline. Haas then tagged in Shelton who rocked Shelley with a right hand before hitting the ropes and drilling him with a dropkick. Benjamin made the cover, but Shelley was up at 2. Haas made another quick tag and he lifted Shelley up, dropping him on the top rope. As Haas held Shelley up by his feet, Shelton hit the ropes looking for one of their big double team moves, but Ogden drove a knee into Shelton's back before coming into the ring and drilling Haas in the back. Patton pulled Ogden to his corner with a stern warning, but Ogden's move had allowed Shelley to get back in the match. After a scoop slam on Haas, Shelley came off the middle rope with a flying elbow. He then made the tag to Ogden, who stayed right on the attack. After a swinging neckbreaker, Ogden shot Haas to the corner and charged in but he missed everything and posted his right shoulder when Haas moved. Haas then delivered a backdrop suplex before turning Ogden over with the "Haas of Pain". The fans were on their feet as they could smell World's Greatest Tag Team retaining. But Shelley again came into the ring to break it up. Patton again forced Shelley to Eye Spy's corner, warning him not to get involved again. Meanwhile, Haas tagged in Shelton and grabbed Ogden from behind for their superkick-german suplex combo but Shelley came in one more time and spun Shelton around. Shelton went for his dragonwhip kick but Shelley ducked and dropped him with a very nice Pele kick. Ogden then used the fact that Patton's back was turned to mule kick Haas and drive him into the mat with a DDT. Shelley got back to his corner and grabbed the tag rope, accepting the tag from Ogden. Shelley immediately went to the top rope, looking for a high impact move. But Shelton took him right out of the air with a dropkick. Both men were down, but the crowd was loudly cheering as Shelton crawled to his corner, slapping the hand of Haas. Haas came in with his second wind, looking to put Shelley away and after a vertical suplex followed by a big belly to belly, Haas was on fire. Haas lifted Shelley to the top turnbuckle but as he climbed up with him, Shelley punched him in the gut and pushed him to the mat. From the top rope, Shelley made the tag to Ogden and Ogden went and got on the turnbuckle on the other side. When Haas got up, both men flew off the top rope at the same time, but crashed and burned when Haas moved. After grabbing Shelley, Haas tossed him over the top rope and to the floor before running at Ogden but Ogden lowbridged the top rope and Haas flew over to the floor himself, hitting hard. Ogden collected himself in the ring as Haas tried to get up outside. After Patton reached a 6 count, Haas got up and got to the apron, driving his shoulder into Ogden's midsection as he tried to pull Haas back in. Haas then came into the ring with a sunset flip attempt, but Ogden showed tremendous balance and sat down on Haas, pulling his legs forward as Patton made the 3 count! Match Time: 17:04 Lawler: "Yes! Yes..... they did it, J.R."! J.R.: "A great counter by M.X. Ogden has given the titles to Eye Spy"! CANDICE CAME INTO THE RING WITH THE RAMPAGE TAG TEAM TITLES AND HANDED THEM TO OGDEN AND SHELLEY. THE CROWD MOSTLY BOOED AS "PICTURES" PLAYED AGAIN. Lawler: "Look at Candice, J.R, she's jumping up and down.... I love this"! J.R.: "A huge win for Eye Spy as they have defeated one of the better tag team champions we have ever seen and with it, the fans have made their first big impact of Anarchy Rulz"! BACKSTAGE AREA..... IN THE BACK, KRISTAL IS STANDING BY WITH ROB VAN DAM. Kristal: "Rob, tonight, you have the chance to be voted by the fans to challenge Chris Masters for the TWF World title. Do you have any final words for the voters"? Rob Van Dam: "Well, everyone knows I've never been a man of many words, but if I get voted into that match tonight, you can bet your pretty little ass that Mister Pay-Per-View will be leaving as the new TWF World champion". Kristal: "Well I know if you do get that vote and win the title, I for one would think that would be very cool". RVD: "Kristal.... everything's cool when you're R.......V.......D.". VAN DAM WALKS OFF AND KRISTAL JUST SMILES. AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING, THREE ROPES HANG FROM THE RAFTERS. ONE HAS A CHAIR ATTACHED, ONE HAS A CHAIN AND ONE HAS A KENDO STICK. A NATIVE AMERICAN WARCHANT IS HEARD BEFORE "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" PLAYS AND TATANKA IS LED DOWN TO THE RING BY TED DIBIASE. J.R.: "Fans it looks like we are ready for Tatanka versus Chris Tirpak and King, there are three very serious weapons of destruction hanging above the ring". Lawler: "Well if you remember, J.R., it was Tirpak who decided to stick his nose in Tatanka's business a few weeks ago! Tirpak's just lucky there's not a tomahawk or a bow and arrow hanging above the ring"! THE VOTING FOR THE MATCH POPS UP ON THE TWF TRON, AND THE KENDO STICK HAS GOTTEN THE MAJORITY OF THE VOTE WITH 45%. THE FANS GO WILD AS "TNT" BY AC/DC COMES ON AND CHRIS TIRPAK BEGINS MAKING HIS WAY THROUGH THE STANDS. THE STEEL CHAIR AND THE CHAIN ARE RAISED BACK UP TO THE RAFTERS. J.R.: "Well from what I'm being told, that kendo stick is going to remain suspended above the ring and once one of these guys is able to get it down, it becomes part of the match"! Lawler: "Tirpak is a mad man with that kendo stick, J.R.! Why would the fans put Tatanka in a situation like this"?! J.R.: "Maybe they're as sick of his whining as I am"! Weapons Match Tatanka w/ Ted Dibiase vs. Chris Tirpak Right as the bell sounded, Tirpak and Tatanka met in the center of the ring trading shots. Tirpak began to knock Tatanka around the ring and after a kick to the midsection, he threw him shoulder first into one of the steel posts. Tirpak then reached up and pulled the kendo stick down, bringing it into the match. Tirpak took a swing at Tatanka, but hit the top rope when Tatanka moved. Tatanka then jumped over the kendo stick as Tirpak took a low swing before clubbing Tirpak over the head with one of his tomahawk chops. Tatanka made no move for the kendo stick as he picked Tirpak up and slammed him to the mat. Tatanka then grabbed the kendo stick and used it to choke Tirpak. But Tirpak stood up and elbowed Tatanka in his exposed rib cage before taking the kendo stick and smacking Tatanka in the left side with it. Tirpak then loaded the stick up for a power shot but Dibiase got on the apron and grabbed it from behind. As Tirpak and Dibiase fought over the weapon, Tatanka came from behind with a knee to the back. He made the cover, but Tirpak was up at 2. Tatanka pulled Tirpak up and whipped him to the corner before picking the kendo stick up and charging in, but Tirpak moved out of the way and then caught Tatanka with a rough clothesline. Tirpak then grabbed the kendo stick, looking for the knockout blow. But again, Dibiase got on the apron looking to run interference. Tired of his antics, Tirpak smacked Dibiase with the kendo stick, catching him in the upper arm! Dibiase fell to the floor in pain and referee Scott Martin jumped down to check on him. Meanwhile, Tatanka had gone out on the other side and gotten a steel chair. He brought it into the ring and wrapped it around the skull of Tirpak from behind. Tatanka disposed of the chair as Tirpak crumpled to the mat. Martin turned to see Tatanka had the cover and he returned to the ring to issue the 3 count. Match Time: 3:12 J.R.: "Now correct me if I'm wrong, King, but I thought the kendo stick was legal, not the damn steel chair"! Lawler: "Hey, that's what that idiot gets for hitting Ted Dibiase! He might've broken his arm"! "MONEY, MONEY, MONEY" PLAYED AGAIN AND THE CROWD HASTILY BOOED AS TATANKA HELPED DIBIASE UP THE RAMP. IN THE RING, MARTIN WAS TRYING TO HELP REVIVE TIRPAK. J.R.: "Dibiase took the bullet for Tatanka, but he'll probably feel it for weeks"! BACKSTAGE..... IN THE BACK, THE MAJOR BROTHERS ARE SHOWN SITTING NEAR A COMPUTER. Brian Major: "Wow, Brett, this voting is really close". Brett Major: "I'm cool with all of them... but that dress we picked out for Platoon....... BOTH MAJOR BROTHERS BEGIN LAUGHING BEFORE THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE RING. "FIREFLY" BY BREAKING BENJAMIN PLAYS AND BOOS LITTER THE ARENA AS CHRIS PLATOON COMES OUT FROM THE BACK. Lawler: "Now here's one I know I've bet waiting for, J.R., because the loser or losers of this match will suffer severe embarrassment"! J.R.: "Chris Platoon has been very successful since coming over to Rampage, and he's had great success in singles action against both Brett and Brian Major, but I just can't get over the ego of this guy.... thinking he can defeat two men at once"! THE MAJOR BROTHERS' MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT TO A BIG CHEER. Lawler: "Can you imagine these two wearing dresses.... now that'd be something to see"! J.R.: "Oh boy. It doesn't look like we'll have to worry about that, King, because the loser or losers of this match will have to kiss another man! Forty percent of our voters selected that stipulation"! Lawler: "The minds of some of our fans never cease to amaze me! C'mon, Platoon.... you can't lose this one now"! Handicap Match/Loser(s) Must Kiss Another Man Brian Major started the match off and Brett worked to get the crowd behind them from the opening bell. Knowing the consequences of a loss, nobody wanted to suffer the humiliation of losing this match. The Majors had a great gameplan, using their speed to overwork Platoon, who did his best to keep up. After ducking a clothesline, Brian drilled him with a big dropkick before tagging in Brett and then using the ropes to slingshot Brett in with a big elbow drop. Brett made the cover, but Platoon was up. Brett ran the ropes and Platoon got up, missing badly with a swinging backhand. Brett came off the other side with a crossbody block and got another 2 count. Brian tagged back into the match and went to the top rope, coming off with a sunset flip. He had so much momentum behind it that he turned Platoon over easily and got a long 2 count. Both men got to their feet and Brian landed 2 hard right hands and hit the ropes again but Platoon came back with a clothesline. From there, Platoon got down in a mount position and just hammered away at Brian with right hands. Platoon pulled Brian up and shot him to the corner but when he ran in, Brian was waiting with a big foot to the face. He then exploded out of the corner with a jumping spin kick right in the mouth before somersaulting to his corner and tagging in Brett. Brett was looking to put it away as he came off the middle turnbuckle with a flying fistdrop, but again, Platoon was up at 2. Brett got to his feet and waited for Platoon to do the same, but after running the ropes, Brett ran into a big spinebuster. Platoon picked Brett up and delivered a textbook snap suplex before turning and taking Brian off the apron with a running high knee. Platoon had regained control of the match, but when he picked Brett up, Brett came up with a small package out of nowhere to get the 3 count! Match Time: 4:50 Lawler: "No..... no way is this happening, J.R."! J.R. (laughs): "It sure the heck is, King! The Major Brothers have finally gotten one on Platoon and boy have they ever"! THE MAJORS LEFT, SLAPPING HANDS WITH AS MANY FANS AS THEY COULD WHILE THEIR MUSIC PLAYED. IN THE RING, A FURIOUS PLATOON KICKED THE RING ROPES, THROWING A BIT OF A TANTRUM. Lawler: "I don't believe this.... I would not want to be in Chris Platoon's shoes right now"! J.R.: "He better get those lips ready, King"! BACKSTAGE....... IN THE BACK, KRISTAL IS STANDING WITH MARK HENRY. Kristal: "Mark Henry, I just had to ask what was going through your head tonight, because you are the only man who is on two seperate polls for these fans to choose from. I mean, you could conceivably face Jason Oliver and then have a chance to become TWF World champion, all in the same night". Mark Henry: "They could have me face the entire Rampage roster, and it wouldn't bother me one bit. Fact is, I am the king of the jungle and at least one man, most likely two men, will find that out tonight". MUHAMMAD HASSAN's OFFICE...... THE FANS INSIDE THE SCOPE CHEER WHEN THE ROCK ENTERS MUHAMMAD HASSAN's OFFICE. The Rock: "I understand you wanted to see me"? Muhammad Hassan: "Have a seat. Rock, I called you in here tonight because it looks like you are running away with the poll to face Chris Masters tonight. Now, I know you and I haven't had much time to talk since you returned to the TWF, but I just wanted to make sure that if you win that title tonight, that you will be a willing participant in my reformed Rampage. I mean, after all the discrimination I've gone through, and all the fighting I've had to do to get things the way I want them, the last thing I need is someone to come in and try and screw things up, ya know? But you wouldn't be that way.... right"? Rock: "Ya know, Muhammad, in my time away from the TWF, I followed this company as much as any other fan and you quickly became one of the more hated guys on tv. I mean, all the whining and bitching about how you were always discriminated against got really old, ya know? So, as far as you go, I would equate you to a steaming pile of monkey piss. And your reformed Rampage...... well, I'm sure you can imagine what I think of that crap". THE ROCK TURNS AND LEAVES THE ROOM AND HASSAN IS OBVIOUSLY NOT HAPPY. BACK INSIDE THE ARENA, THE UFC OCTAGON IS SHOWN AND THE SHOT CUTS OVER TO MIKE GOLDBERG AND JOE ROGAN, UFC's BROADCAST TEAM. Mike Goldberg: "Hello everybody, Mike Goldberg and Joe Rogan on hand here at TWF Anarchy Rulz and Joe, since this partnership with the TWF was formed, the UFC has been able to give wrestling fans a taste of our world and what we do, but tonight, fans had a very unique oppurtunity". Joe Rogan: "Yeah, you're right, Mike. Never before have fans had the chance to decide what fight they wanted to see and they've chosen a good one". Goldberg: "The fans have spoken and they have spoken loudly! Seventy one percent of the voters have chosen to see Chuck "The Iceman" Liddell take on Kevin Randleman and what a fight this should be, Joe". Rogan: "It's no real surprise that this is the fight we're gonna get because Chuck Liddell is easily the most popular fighther in mixed martial arts and he should clean up tonight against Kevin Randleman". Goldberg: "Well back on May 4, 2001, Kevin Randleman faced Chuck Liddell at UFC 31 and was knocked out. He told me earlier tonight that he is ready for redemption, and ready to shock the world. Do you at least give him a puncher's chance, Joe"? Rogan: "Kevin Randleman is a former UFC Heavyweight champion, so I'll give him a puncher's chance, but that's about it". Goldberg: "The fighters are inside the cage for this fight, scheduled for three rounds"! UFC Fight: "The Iceman" Chuck Liddell (MMA Record: 20-4) vs. Kevin "The Monster" Randleman (MMA Record: 16-12) First Round: Referee Herb Dean got consent from both fighters to start the fight and it was on. The fans were on their feet chanting "Let's go Chuck" as the two men moved in on each other. Randleman and Liddell each threw a few jabs at each other, trying to feel each other out. Liddell was the first to throw a kick, going right for the head, but Randleman blocked it perfectly with his hands. Randleman then threw a sweeping right hook at Liddell's body that found the mark before grabbing him by the head of the head for a knee strike. But Liddell pushed him away and took a violent swing with his right hand which Randleman was fortunate he didn't connect with. Both fighters were still trying to get a feel for things and how to attack when Liddell tried to shoot. But Randleman stuffed his takedown attempt and pounded him twice in the back of the head. Both men got to a standup when the bell sounded to end round one. Round 2: After taking advice from their corners, both men came out for round 2 swinging for the fences. Nobody expected Randleman to stand up and trade blows with Liddell, but the former NCAA wrestling champion from Ohio State did just that. Randleman answered every punch Liddell threw with one of his own before blasting him with a right-left combo. Liddell was rocked and Randleman picked him up above his head before just driving him into the mat. The back of Liddell's head caught part of the cage wall and as Randleman moved into the full mount and passed Liddell's guard, Liddell was in trouble. Randleman just teed off on him, pounding him with rights and lefts to the head as a stunned crowd looked on. Dean looked like he was about to stop the fight but Liddell threw a few defensive shots. Finally, Randleman landed a couple hammer fists to the face before using both hands to come down on the head of Liddell with a double hammer fist. Liddell was knocked silly and Dean recognized it, pulling Randleman off to stop the fight. Official Result: Kevin Randleman by KO at 3:46 of Round 2 Goldberg: "I don't believe what we have just witnessed, Joe! Kevin Randleman has shocked the MMA world by defeating Chuck Liddell"! Rogan: "Yeah, I'm pretty much speechless. I expected Liddell to come in here hungry and just plain ready to rip someone's head off after his loss to Quinton Jackson, but Randleman pretty much dominated him". RANDLEMAN CELEBRATED WITH HIS TEAM IN HIS CORNER AS LIDDELL SAT ON ONE KNEE, TRYING TO MAKE SENSE OF WHAT JUST TRANSPIRED. Goldberg: "One of the biggest upsets in the MMA world in years has happened right here at Anarchy Rulz! Let's send it back to Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler". THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE BROADCAST POSITION WITH J.R. AND THE KING. J.R.: "Heck of a fight there, King". Lawler: "I'll say, those two were beating the heck out of each other"! J.R.: "Well folks, the voting has just concluded for tonight's King of Cable title match and it was another close one, but forty six percent of our voters wanna see Mr. Kennedy and J.J. Ramplin get it on in a falls count anywhere match"! Lawler: "Well this is one I've really been lookin' forward to, J.R.! Two of the best young superstars Rampage has to offer, and now we know it's gonna be falls count anywhere"! "MISTERRRR KENNEDYYYYYY" IS HEARD AND KEN KENNEDY COMES OUT TO A PRETTY GOOD CHEER FROM THE CROWD. J.R.: "Well this brash young superstar who the fans have actually begun to take a liking towards has the oppurtunity to win his first title here in the TWF". Lawler: "Well it's gonna take all Kennedy has, J.R.! J.J. Ramplin has been as good as anyone over the last several months"! THE LIGHTS GO OUT AND BOOS FILL THE ARENA WHEN "MISERIA CANTARE" BEGINS TO PLAY. J.J. RAMPLIN EMERGES FROM THE ECW ENTRANCE WITH THE KING OF CABLE TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. J.R.: "Ramplin of course won the title at WrestleMania in that infamous flag match with Jason Oliver, and he hasn't looked back since". Lawler: "He's got everything going for him, J.R.! He's young, good looking, King of Cable champion, and a member of the most powerful group here in the TWF"! J.R.: "I gotta tell ya, King, I've seen a lot of falls count anywhere matches in my time here in this business. It's a career shortening, anything goes, battlefield of brutality, and these two youngsters are gonna be put to the test tonight". Falls Count Anywhere/TWF King of Cable Title Match Challenger: Ken Kennedy vs. J.J. "The Ram" Ramplin The bell sounded and Ramplin met Kennedy in the ring and the fight was on. Both men threw right hands in an exchange of punches but the fired up Kennedy rocked Ramplin into the corner before mounting the middle turnbuckle and firing down on him with right hands as the crowd counted along. Kennedy then took Ramplin and tossed him over the top rope and to the floor before following him out. The match would never return to the ring. Ramplin got up and grabbed Kennedy around the waist, driving his lower back into the ring apron before sending him hard into the ring steps. Ramplin reached under the ring and pulled out a metal trash can but when he went around the other side, Kennedy had pulled out a fire extunguisher and he shot it right in the champ's face. After a hard clothesline, Kennedy picked Ramplin up and pulled him out onto the steel ramp and delivered a big piledriver. The fans thought it was over already as Kennedy made the cover, but Ramplin was up at 2. Kennedy picked Ramplin up and hit him with more right hands but Ramplin stayed in it, firing back with some of his own. After a boot to the stomach, Ramplin sent Kennedy face first into one of the steel beams holding up the Anarchy Rulz set. Cameras followed as the brawl spilled into the back. Ramplin found a catering table with food and drinks on it and he threw a drink right in Kennedy's face before clotheslining him over the table. Kennedy hit the floor hard, but still managed to kick out at 2 when Ramplin made the cover. Ramplin was in clear control at this point and Kennedy had been busted open in the back of his head from the fall over the table. Ramplin picked him up and led him around a corner, mouthing the words, "Guess what we're gonna do now? I have a few friends that want a piece of you". But as Ramplin looked at the ECW dressing room, he was shocked to see a huge forklift parked right in front of it. Ramplin ran over to the forklift and kicks to the door could be heard coming from inside. There were no keys in the forklift, so the King of Cable actually began to try to push the forklift. That's when two men in masks ran up and attacked Ramplin. After being thrown into the wall by one of the men, Ramplin was blasted by the other one with a superkick! The two masked men left the scene as Kennedy stumbled up and made the cover. Referee Jack Doan, who was following the action the whole time, made the cover and Kennedy got the 3 count. Match Time: 7:18 Lawler: "Are you kidding me?! What the hell is going on back there"?! J.R.: "I don't know what to say about that, but anything goes in this type of environment, King! J.J. Ramplin was planning on getting his friends from ECW involved, but it backfired in a major way"! KENNEDY's MUSIC PLAYED AND HE WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET UP AS DOAN CAME RUNNING BACK TO THE BACKSTAGE AREA WITH THE KING OF CABLE TITLE. KENNEDY RAISED IT UP WHEN OF ALL PEOPLE, PRIMETIME's SHAWN MICHAELS AND JORDAN ROCKWELL STROLLED UP. Shawn Michaels: "Did you see the superkick that guy threw.... wow". Jordan Rockwell: "That was a mean kick, the other guy didn't look so bad either". MICHAELS AND ROCKWELL GRIN AT KENNEDY AS THEY LEAVE THE SCENE. KENNEDY JUST STARTS TO LAUGH. Lawler: "Oh no way.... don't tell me those two idiots were behind this"! J.R.: "C'mon, King, you're not suggesting that Rockwell and Michaels had anything to do with this....... Lawler: "They can't be here.... those two should be fined and suspended"! BACKSTAGE...... IN THE BACK, KRISTAL IS STANDING BY WITH THE CANADIAN-ITALIAN EXCHANGE. Kristal: "Aldo.... in a matter of moments, you will face.... well, one of the faces of Foley". Aldo Corleone: "All week I've been hearing the same question.... who do you want
to face? I'll tell you who I'm gonna face and his name is Mick Foley. A real man doesn't hide from reality, and for the first time in Foley's career, I'm
gonna bring him to reality. And this reality is that Foley is nothing but a worthless, helpless, out of shape, glorified stuntman and the only reason
he's even here today is because of cheap pops and hard falls. So tonight, I'm gonna knock him off his high horse and prove what Muhummad Hassan did
and solidify the fact that Mick Foley doesn't deserve to even be in this business any more"! ALDO CORLEONE AND ROB STORM WALK OFF AS THE SHOT GOES BACK TO THE RING. THE THEME OF THE "GODFATHER" COMES ON AND ALDO CORLEONE COMES OUT ALONG WITH ROB STORM. THEY ARE MET BY PLENTY OF BOOS. J.R.: "Moving on here at Anarchy Rulz and I gotta say, King, this is one of the most unique matches on tonight's card". Lawler: "Yeah, because fans have the chance to choose from three different opponents for Aldo Corleone who are all the same guy"! J.R.: Who's it gonna be..... let's take a look at the voting"! THE TWF TRON SHOWS THE VOTING FOR THIS MATCH, AND WITH 56% OF THE VOTE, CACTUS JACK IS SELECTED AS THE OPPONENT. CACTUS JACK's MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A HUGE CHEER FROM THE CROWD. INTRODUCED FROM TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES, NEW MEXICO, HE IS ALSO WEARING HIS TRADEMARK "WANTED" T-SHIRT. Lawler: "Look at this idiot! What would he have done if Dude Love won the vote.... changed real fast"?! J.R.: "We will have to wait to see Dude Love or Mankind for another day but I will say this, King, Mick Foley is a dear, dear friend of mine and if you ask me, the Canadian-Italian Exchange put themselves in this spot"! Lawler: "Well I know Aldo was sure they had put Foley out of the TWF forever and I know his goal is to do just that tonight"! Aldo Corleone w/ Rob Storm vs. Cactus Jack Cactus Jack, arguably the most famous "Face of Foley", looked over at the towering Aldo and came right at him swinging. But Corleone used a kneelift into the gut of Cactus before dropping him with a right hand. He then picked him up and dropped him on the top turnbuckle with a snake eyes before hitting the ropes for a hard clothesline. As Corleone distracted referee Jim Korderas, Rob Storm came over and pulled Cactus down on the bottom ring rope, creating a choke effect. Cactus was in some trouble early as Aldo dropped a big elbow across his chest, but a cover only got him a 2 count. After throwing Cactus threw the ring ropes, Aldo blocked Korderas again as Storm picked Cactus up by the hair but Cactus was able to reverse an irish whip and he sent Storm hard into the ring steps. Cactus got back up on the apron and drove his shoulder into Corleone's abdomen when he came over to the ropes. But Cactus then went for a sunset flip, and looked very bad doing so. He couldn't pull Corleone down and Corleone just sat down on the chest of Cactus. After ramming Cactus face first into the turnbuckle pad, Corleone ran the ropes and drilled Cactus with the Mafia Kick. Cactus looked like he was out as Korderas got down to make the 1..........2........, but he was up! The crowd was back into it, but Cactus was hurt as he had a cut under his left eye. After a belly to belly suplex, Corleone picked Cactus up with both hands by the throat before throwing him into the corner. But when he tried to crush him in the corner, Cactus moved and schoolboyed him for the 1.......2......, but that was all he could get. Cactus hit the ropes but Aldo rose up from the mat and again kicked him right in the face. He made another cover, but again, Cactus was up. Aldo threw Cactus into the corner again and pounded him with 3 hard right hands before using his right hand to choke him, using all of the count Korderas put on him. But Cactus came back with 3 right hands of his own followed by a perfect swinging neckbreaker. Cactus got up and did the "Bang, Bang" hand sign which really got the crowd into it. Cactus then went to the corner and got to the middle turnbuckle. Storm came over trying to get involved, but Cactus elbowed him right in the face before flying off with an elbow on Corleone. Storm was irate and got up on the turnbuckle, flying into the ring with a missile dropkick. But Cactus Jack saw him out of the corner of his eye and moved out of the way, watching Storm take out his own partner with it! Cactus then grabbed Corleone and delivered the double arm DDT, hooking the leg for the 1........2.......3. Match Time: 6:59 J.R.: "He got him! Things were really looking bleak for the Mayor of No Man's Land, but Cactus Jack does it"! Lawler: "This is ridiculous, J.R.! Does this mean we're gonna have to see this moron and all his alter egos every week"?! THE CROWD CHEERED AS CACTUS JACK STOOD IN THE RING TAKING IT ALL IN. J.R.: "Like I said, King, this man is a dear friend of mine, and this is a welcome sight"! BACKSTAGE.... DRESSING ROOM..... AUSTIN PYROMANIA AND TAYLOR MADE ARE SHOWN IN THEIR DRESSING ROOM. TAYLOR HAS KELLY SITTING ON HIS LAP AS PYROMANIA GETS DONE TAPING HIS HANDS. Austin Pyromania: "Alright, ready"? Taylor Made: "More than ready buddy, let's do this". Pyromania: "It's time to bury the GSE once and for all". THE SHOT IS SENT BACK TO THE RING. "SUPERSTAR" BY SALIVA KICKS UP AND JASON OLIVER COMES OUT TO A VERY MIXED RESPONSE. J.R.: "Well, King, it was last week on Rampage when this kid was in his homeland of Vancouver, and if you ask me, he let his emotions get the best of him". Lawler: "Well that's one man's opinion, but I liked it. Imagine being told everywhere you go that you can't beat this man, you're scared of this man. Oliver got sick of hearing that"! J.R.: "Not only did he say he could beat Mark Henry, but that he could beat Nemesis and Matt Cruz, too and King, I'm being told that this was the closest voting we had". Lawler: "Well who's it gonna be..... Oliver looks ready for any of them". THE TWF TRON SHOWS THE VOTING, AND WITH 48% OF THE VOTE, MARK HENRY GETS THE MAJORITY. J.R.: "Oh boy........ Lawler: "Well he had to know this was a possibility, J.R., and if Oliver can somehow win this match.... can you imagine what that would do for him"?! "SOMEBODY's GONNA GET IT" BY THREE SIX MAFIA COMES ON AND MARK HERNY MAKES HIS WAY OUT FROM THE BACK. J.R.: "He's the world's strongest man and Jason Oliver will no doubt have his work cut out for him here". Lawler: "Look at Oliver though, he is staring right at Henry as he gets into the ring"! Jason Oliver vs. Mark Henry The bell sounded and Oliver came over and attacked Henry as he was talking with referee Jose Mendez. Oliver went right at him, landing a few right hands before kicking him in the right kneecap. Henry threw an angry clothesline but missed and Oliver went at the knee again. After a chop block looked like it buckled the knee, Oliver hit the ropes and rocked Henry with a clothesline. As Henry teetered back and forth, Oliver ran the ropes and clotheslined Henry again. Oliver then used the ring ropes as a springboard before dropkicking Henry, finally knocking him off his feet. An upset was in the making as Oliver went to the top rope and came off with a flying legdrop, but Henry was able to avoid it. After a big splash, Henry pulled Oliver up and threw him into the corner before using his immense size to just squash him. Henry then grabbed the right arm of Oliver and pulled him into a vicious clothesline. After yelling at some of the fans, Henry scooped Oliver up before just driving him into the mat with the "World's Strongest Slam". Henry stayed in the cover, and Mendez pounded the mat for the 1......2.......3. Match Time: 4:50 J.R.: "A valiant effort by Jason Oliver but the strength of Henry was just too much"! Lawler: "Mark Henry calls himself the king of the jungle and he sure looked like that tonight! I don't know if anyone can beat this man when he's at his best"! "SOMEBODY's GONNA GET IT" PLAYED AGAIN AS HENRY LEFT THE RING AND WALKED UP THE RAMP, NOT LOOKING BACK ONCE WHILE THE FANS HECKLED HIM WITH BOOS. J.R.: "It will take a Herculean type effort to defeat Henry, and Oliver just didn't have that in him tonight". BACKSTAGE AREA...... IN THE BACK, TODD GRISHAM IS STANDING WITH CHRIS MASTERS, WHO HAS THE TWF WORLD TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. Todd Grisham: "Okay, Chris Masters, it looks like The Rock will be the runaway winner of the poll to face you tonight, so it appears the people have selected the People's Champ". Chris Masters: "And ya know what, Todd, that's fine. If they want to put the big Hollywood movie star in the ring with someone like me, fine. But don't blame me when The Rock's movie career is over! Don't blame me when The Rock isn't seen on the red carpet again! Because tonight, I'm gonna put my Masterlock on him..... and break his damn neck"! THE FANS LOUDLY CHEER WHEN "DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE" BY 2PAC HITS, BRINGING AUSTIN PYROMANIA AND TAYLOR MADE OUT. KELLY IS ARM IN ARM WITH TAYLOR. J.R.: "A huge tag team match coming at us here, King, and this is a situation that has become incredibly heated"! Lawler: "Well just when Money Mike thought he had seen the last of Taylor Made, Austin Pyromania made his return to the TWF"! "KING OF KINGS" BY MOTORHEAD COMES ON AND MONEY MIKE COMES OUT WITH STEPHANIE McMAHON AND THEY ARE BOMBARDED BY BOOS. J.R.: "That's when Money Mike decided to even the odds, letting these fans, who he detests with a passion, actually select his partner for tonight". Lawler: "Well I heard that half these former GSE guys on the poll had to be removed cause they didn't have work release permits"! J.R.: "We're ready for the poll results... let's see who Money Mike's partner is gonna be"! THE TWF TRON DISPLAYS THE RESULTS OF THE VOTING, AND WITH 57%, TAZ HAS THE MAJORITY VOTE. Lawler: "Oh look..... it's Taz"! "BEFORE I FORGET" BY SLIPKNOT HITS AND TAZ COMES OUT TO A VERY GOOD POP FROM THE CROWD, HEADING STRAIGHT FOR THE RING. J.R.: "And here comes the street thug from Brooklyn, a man we had a good feeling would win this vote, King"! Lawler: "It's been hard to tell which side of things Taz stands on! He was true to the GSE for so many years before finally agreeing to come over to the TWF"! J.R.: "Well for those of you watching tonight who weren't fans of the GSE, Money Mike and Taz were friends at one point, but also had one of the more bitter rivalries that company ever saw"! Lawler: "And if I'm not mistaken, J.R., I think their rivalry dates back further than that". J.R.: "Well if they're going to succeed tonight, they'll have to see eye to eye". Austin Pyromania and Taylor Made w/ Kelly vs. Money Mike and Taz w/ Stephanie McMahon Money Mike and Taz tried to strategize as Pyromania decided to start things off for his team. Taz got in first and he and Pyro locked up. Taz easily pushed Pyro to the mat but showed his athleticism by leapfrogging a charging Pyromania before catching him with a spinkick to the gut. Taz pulled Pyro up and whipped him to the ropes but Pyro dove through his legs and caught Money Mike with a dropkick that knocked him to the floor. Pyromania then ducked a clothesline from Taz before making the tag to Taylor who sprung into the ring from the apron and took Taz down with a crossbody block for the 1......2......., but Taz was up. Both men got to their feet and Taylor threw a kick but Taz caught his foot. Taz then avoided an enziguri before standing over Taylor and clubbing him on either side of the head, very viciously. Taz then tagged in Money Mike who came in and put the boots to Taylor. After pulling him up, Mike shot him to the ropes and plowed through him with a big clothesline. Taylor got to his feet but Mike stayed on him with right hands before tagging in Taz. Mike then grabbed Taz and whipped him towards Taylor but Taylor caught him with a big superkick. Both men fell to the mat, but Taylor was able to slap the hand of Pyromania who came in and waited for Taz to get up. He knocked him into the corner with a big European uppercut before climbing the turnbuckle and firing down on Taz with right hands. But Money Mike came over and grabbed Pyromania by the right arm, pulling him down over the top ring rope. Taz then ran over Pyromania with a clothesline before picking him up into a huge german suplex. Money Mike tagged back in, and he and Taz were now in firm control of the match. Mike pulled Pyromania up but Pyro flung his arms out and nailed Mike with a back elbow. But Money Mike came back with a kick to the gut followed by a heavy DDT. He then made the cover for the 1......2......, but Pyromania got his right shoulder off the mat in the nick of time. Mike pulled him up and again busted him with some hard right hands before pulling him in for the "Money Pit" but Pyromania blocked it and came up with an incredible counter move, an STO takedown. Both men were down and the fans were now back into the match. Taylor was jumping up and down, begging for the tag. Mike slapped the hand of Taz to bring him in. Taz came in and grabbed the left foot of Pyromania but he shook free and dove to his corner, tagging in Taylor. Taylor jumped in and threw a right hand but Taz blocked it and rocked him with one of his own before pulling him in for a belly to belly suplex, turning the tide once again. Taz picked Taylor up by the throat and tossed him into the corner like a small child. Taz looked over at Mike who said "Finish him" but when Taz charged into the corner, Taylor hopped up to the top rope and wrapped his legs around Taz, rolling over into a sunset flip for the 1.......2........3. Match Time: 7:46 TAYLOR AND PYROMANIA QUICKLY GOT OUT OF THE RING AND TAYLOR GRABBED KELLY's HAND AS "DON'T PLAY WITH FIRE" PLAYED AGAIN. J.R.: "He got him! What a move by Taylor Made and he and Pyromania have gotten a slight upset here"! Lawler: "Well as much as I like Money Mike, I couldn't pull for the GSE.... it's always good to see them go down"! J.R.: "Wait, what's this"? TAZ WAS BACK UP AND MONEY MIKE WAS IN HIS FACE. MIKE SHOVED TAZ AND HIS LIPS COULD BE READ SAYING "YOU LET ME DOWN". TAZ PUSHED MIKE BACK, BUT MIKE SLAPPED HIM ACROSS THE FACE. TAZ THEN GRABBED MIKE WITH BOTH ARMS AND THREW HIM OVER HIS HEAD WITH A BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX! TAZ THEN LEFT THE RING AS STEPHANIE RUSHED OVER TO CHECK ON MIKE. Lawler: "What the hell is his problem?! What a sore loser"! J.R.: "Sore loser? Money Mike instigated that one, King"! THE FANS CHEERED FOR TAZ AS HE WALKED BACK UP THE RAMP. IN THE RING, MONEY MIKE WAS BACK UP AND WAS FURIOUSLY YELLING AT TAZ. Lawler: "He can't do that to the king of the TWF"! J.R.: "Fans the next time we have a chance to come into your homes will be for our huge Summer spectacular, MeltDown, which this year will be live from our nation's capitol.... you don't wanna miss it". Lawler: "I still can't get over what we just saw Taz do to Money Mike"! J.R.: "Well get over it, because we've got a main event to call". CHRIS MASTERS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO NOTHING BUT BOOS AS PYRO SPRAYS OFF BEHIND HIM AND HE GOES INTO HIS USUAL POSE ROUTINE. Lawler: "Well this is sure a breath of fresh air.... it's the Masterpiece"! J.R.: "This will be the first big test of Chris Masters' title reign and King, he'll be facing one of five possible opponents here". Lawler: "Todd Grisham said it earlier though, J.R., I'm pretty sure we know who Masters will be facing here"! "I'M THE BOOGEYMAN.... AND I'M COMIN' TO GETCHA" IS HEARD AND RED SMOKE BILLOWS OUT OF THE ENTRANCE. MASTERS LOOKS ALL AROUND HIM, EYES WIDE OPEN. J.R.: "What the hell is this"?! Lawler: "It can't be..... it can't be this idiot"! THE BOOGEYMAN's MUSIC STOPS AND HE IS NOWHERE TO BE SEEN. BUT, THE FANS GO WILD WHEN "IF YA SMELL..... WHAT THE ROCK..... IS COOKIN'" PLAYS AND THE ROCK STORMS DOWN THE RAMP TO THE RING, DIVING IN AND TRADING PUNCHES WITH MASTERS. J.R.: "It's The Rock.... and the title match is underway"! TWF World Title Match Challenger: The Rock vs. "The Masterpiece" Chris Masters Masters didn't know what hit him as The Rock, who got 60% of the fans vote, was all over him. After a barrage of right hands, The Rock spit into his hand and blasted Masters with an overhand right. He then shot him to the corner and lifted him up with a big backbody drop. Masters got up, but The Rock didn't give him one second to recover. Finally, Masters slowed him down with a thumb to the eye before drilling him with a clothesline. Masters then dropped down to the mat and used both hands to choke The Rock. Rock got to his feet, but Masters landed two right hands before whipping him to the ropes but The Rock ducked the Ivan Putski Polish Hammer before hitting a running back elbow that was on the money. Off an irish whip, The Rock then hit his big spinebuster before getting in position for the People's Elbow. Everyone in the first 20 rows or so stood up as The Rock stood over Masters and whipped his elbow pad into the audience. He then landed the People's Elbow and was well on his way to victory but right when he got up, he was blindsided by Mark Henry, who hit him in the back of the head. Referee Jim Korderas quickly called for the bell, disqualifying Masters. But after Henry delivered the "World's Strongest Slam", Masters picked him up and locked in the Masterlock. The bell continued to ring as Muhammad Hassan appeared at the top of the stage, applauding Henry and Masters' beatdown of the great one. Match Time: 4:21 J.R.: "What the hell is this?! This is complete and utter b.s."! Lawler: "And there's the man behind it.... our very own general manager"! J.R.: "Muhammad Hassan knew The Rock wouldn't play his games on his reformed Rampage, so he made sure he didn't win the title"! CHRIS MASTERS' MUSIC PLAYED AND HE AND HENRY LEFT THE ROCK BATTERED AND BEATEN AND THE CROWD WAS ALL OVER THEM WITH BOOS. Lawler: "Chris Masters is still the champ, and he may've effectively eliminated his main threat"!
