Long Island, New York
February 22, 2003
UPRISING's LOGO POPS UP ON THE SCREEN AND CAMERAS ZOOM THROUGH THE TWF LIVEWIRE INN THAT CONTAINS A NEAR CAPACITY AUDIENCE AS AL SNOW COMES OUT ON THE STAGE TO A WARM RECEPTION. Al Snow: "Folks we don't have a lot of time tonight for Uprising but I feel like a different person and I just realized why! I don't have the Honky Tonk Man yacking my ear off tonight because he's gettin' ready to do Saturday Night's Main Event with the Coach. But before we send you out to Long Island, we've got three matches tonight that are gonna be very entertaining so without wasting more time like The Honky Tonk Man loves to do, let's just go down to the ring"! Nathan Jones vs. Chuck Palumbo w/ Shawn Stasiak Palumbo got in some hard right hands early but nothing would take the big Australian off his feet. Stasiak continued to shout instructions to his take team partner but it was no use as Jones put Palumbo away after a chokeslam. Match Time: 3:46 Johnny Stamboli vs. Brian Danielson Both these guys were invited to Uprising to compete, Stamboli on a tryout basis. He took a barrage of offense from Danielson, also known as "American Dragon" but Stamboli had some impressive moves as well, including a springboard guillotine legdrop off the top rope. After hitting a nice slingshot sitdown powerbomb, Stamboli delivered the move he calls the "Running of the Bull" and hooked the leg for a big win. Match Time: 7:02 A CODE RED PROMO FEATURING THE RAW 6 MAN TAG TEAM MATCH IS SHOWN. Mr. Wrestling III vs. Charlie Haas In a rematch of the Gauntlet match at Widespread Panic, Haas exacted a little revenge on the mysterious Mr. Wrestling III, using a roll through after running him into the ropes and gaining enough leverage to get the pin. Match Time: 6:34 Snow: "Wow, some great action here as always on Uprising and would you believe that in 3:46, that is Nathan Jones' longest match in the TWF to date? That's scary. And if scouts are as impressed with Johnny Stamboli as I was, he'll be showing up on either RAW or PrimeTime very soon. But the question I want answered is, who is this Mr. Wrestling III guy? Ah well, time will tell I'm sure. But if you all are wanting your last minute Code Red questions answered and blanks filled, don't touch that remote because coming up right now, is Saturday Night' Main Event, enjoy"! THE SCREEN FADES TO BLACK AND THE SATURDAY NIGHT's MAIN EVENT LOGO IS SHOWN AFTER THE TWF TRADEMARK LOGO FLASHES ACROSS THE SCREEN. THE MONTAGE OF SATURDAY NIGHT's MAIN EVENT ROLLS ACCOMPANIED BY IT's OLD THEME MUSIC. THE NASSAU COLISEUM COMES INTO VIEW AND FIREWORKS LACE THE STAGE AS FANS ARE SHOWN IN ALL AREAS OF THE ARENA GOING WILD. Jonathan Coachman: "We are live on NBC and the network has given us three hours to prepare for Code Red and I can't wait for some of the things that are gonna happen tonight Honky"! Honky Tonk Man: "Well let's get one thing straight right off the bat Coach! I was brought into the TWF months ago to do my this show and this is my first one! I should be raising hell about that but I'mjust gonna sit back and decide who's worse, you or Al Snow"! Coachman: "Oh brother, well watch and learn Honky! But in all seriousness folks.... A PROMO PICTURE WITH THE SNME LOGO POPS UP WITH RANDY ORTON ON ONE SIDE AND HULK HOGAN ON THE OTHER. tonight, it's gonna be the blue chipper versus the icon and what a matchup it will be"! Honky Tonk Man: "Well, it won't be as good as me beating Jerry Lawler at Widespread Panic but come to think of it, nothing will top that"! Coachman: "You did win the match Honky but please don't subject me to you rubbing it in the King's face all night! Also folks..... ANOTHER PROMO PICTURE POPS UP WITH STONE COLD STEVE AUSTIN AND ROB VAN DAM ON ONE SIDE AND MATT HARDY AND THE HURRICANE ON THE OTHER. we have this big tag team match for you"! Honky Tonk Man: "Things seem to be getting a little better between Austin and RVD but how long can Van Dam trust a rattlesnake"? GOLDUST's MUSIC HITS AS 24 KARAT GOLD PRODUCTIONS APPEARS ON THE TWF TRON AND GOLD PYRO AND CONFETTI RAIN FROM THE RAFTERS. Coachman: "That remains to be seen but we're kicking things off with a match that has some serious emotion in it and Honky, we've got the stars of RAW and PrimeTime all under the same roof tonight"! "IN MY DARKEST HOUR" BY MEGADEATH HITS AND NEMESIS COMES OUT TO A GOOD CHEER. Honky Tonk Man: "I saw these two about to kill each other in that lumberjack match"! Coachman: "Well I know there's a lot of tension between these two men and it's all because of Goldust's strange liking of Sam Wilde"! HTM: "Well I gotta admit, it is a little fruity".
Nemesis vs. Goldust
Nemesis had a tougher than expected go against the bizarre one. Nemesis inadvertently elbowed referee Mike Chioda and Goldust caught him with a low blow. But he didn't stop there, lowblowing him 3 more times
to slow down Nemesis in a hurry. Goldust then tied him up in the ring ropes and slapped him across the face before releasing him and hitting an inverted
vertical suplex. Goldust then whipped him to the corner looking to hit his trademark bulldog but Nemesis turned around and exploded through him with a
clothesline. Nemesis then had him hooked up for a chokeslam when Sam Wilde came out pointing to his bible. Nemesis and Chioda got distracted by this
and Chioda warned Wilde to go back when Goldust got in another low blow and then hit the "Curtain Call" to pick up the victory.
Match Time:
5:42
HTM: "I think Wilde is into Goldust Coach! He just helped him win"!
Coachman: "No King, I think that was just an honest mistake, he was trying to say something"!
AS WILDE CHECKED ON NEMESIS, GOLDUST CAME BACK INTO THE
RING AND GRABBED WILDE IN A VERY INAPPROPRIATE MANNER.
HTM: "Oh but old Goldust is sure into him still"!
Coachman: "Goldust is a sick pervert! What is
his fixation with Wilde"?
NEMESIS IS SHOWN STARING A HOLE THROUGH WILDE AS
GOLDUST LEAVES WITH A GRIN ON HIS PAINTED FACE. BACKSTAGE.... THE CROWD CHEERS AS DYLAN JANSENS AND CARNEY ARE SHOWN. JANSENS HAS THE LIGHTHEAVYWEIGHT TITLE OVER HIS SHOULDER. Dylan Jansens: "Welcome back Carney and good luck in your match tonight. I apologize for anything my katana has caused". Carney: "No problem man. It was just one of those shoot the messenger things. Don't worry, you'll get your katana back but right now, the only thing on my mind is defeating Hayabusa tonight and competiting in that triple threat at Code Red". THE 2 SHAKE HANDS AS THE SHOW IS INTERRUPTED BY OTHER FOOTAGE. Coachman: "It was just announced today that Carney, Hayabusa and Dylan Jansens will get it on in a triple threat match at Code Red for the Lightheavyweight title but what is this"? HTM: "Where is this"? A NEIGHBORHOOD FILLED WITH HOUSES IS SHOWN AS THE SUN IS BEGINNING TO SET. BAHAMUT COMES INTO VIEW. Bahamut: "Hey there Strife, I know you're at the Nassau Coliseum and I know you thought I was gonna be there tonight too but do you know where I went instead? Come on, I know this looks familiar. That's right, I'm at your house here in the Bronx. Now I know the only ones here are your wife and son but I thought I'd drop by and say hello... so stay tuned". BAHAMUT BEGINS TO WALK TO THE DOOR..... Coachman: "Oh my god"! COMMERCIAL BREAK...... A PREVIEW FOR THE MOVIE DARK BLUE IS SHOWN FOLLOWED BY A COMMERCIAL FOR PRIDE FIGHTING CHAMPIONSHIPS FOR PS2. RETURN FROM BREAK.... BACKSTAGE.... MATT HARDY IS SHOWN WITH THE HURRICANE. Hurricane: "Ya know citizen Matt, I believe I know who is responsible for swiping citizen Jansens' katana. I saw something strange that night with my hurri-vision. It is that..... Matt Hardy: "Do you think I care who stole something from someone who's already a thief"? Hurricane: "Whatever do you mean citizen Matt"? Matt: "Jansens stole the Lightheavyweight title from me, everyone saw it. Then he cheated to win the New Year's battle royale when I was clearly going to win it. Now let's just worry about defeating Austin and RVD tonight so we can take Mattitude to the next level". Hurricane: "To the Matt cave I presume"? Matt: (shaking his head) "Let's just go". OTHER SIDE OF THE ARENA.... CHRIS TIRPAK AND CRAZY SHANE ARE SHOWN TALKING. Bradshaw: "But they're fast, they weren't the tag team champs for nothin'". Chris Tirpak: "Look man, tonight's our night, I feel it". JUST THEN, CRAZY SHANE WALKS UP. Crazy Shane: "What's up guys? Just wanted to come by and say good luck to you against Evolution tonight. Oh and one other thing, the Psych Ward is part of the tag team ranks now and we have a simple motto. Anybody, anytime, anywhere". HE STARTS TO WALK AWAY. Bradshaw: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, I don't think we've been properly introduced son. I'm Bradshaw and this is Chris, welcome to the TWF. JUST THEN, BRADSHAW LAMBASTES HIM WITH THE "CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL", KNOCKING HIM OVER A TABLE. Little bastard"! BACK AT RINGSIDE, HAYABUSA AND JIM CORNETTE ARE IN THE RING. HAYABUSA's MUSIC CUTS OUT AND "LOOSE" BY EMINEM HITS AND CARNEY COMES OUT TO A BIG POP. Coachman: "Did you see that shot by Bradshaw? My gosh"! HTM: "That was a big mistake if you ask me". Coachman: "Well here comes Carney and this will be his first match back since suffering that sneak attack a couple weeks ago on PrimeTime, presumably by the man who stole Jansens katana". HTM: "Well these are two of the three men that will compete in that triple threat match at Code Red and you can bet Dylan Jansens is keeping a close eye on this one".
Carney vs. Hayabusa w/Jim Cornettte
This was a great display of what's to come at Code
Red in the triple threat match as this was easily the match of the night. Both men displayed tremendous quickness in the first part of the match as
Hayabusa pelted the lower body of Carney with his stiff kicks but Carney retaliated with a flying clothesline/neckbreaker after ducking a roundhouse.
Carney then whipped him to the corner but Hayabusa jumped up onto the middle turnbuckle and caught him with a jumping martial arts kick to the face. He
then sized him up and kicked him in the side of the head and went for a cover but Carney kicked out at 2. Hayabusa then tried to slow things down
with a nerve hold to the neck. Carney winced in pain as the numbness began to set in but he fell to his back and kicked Hayabusa right in the face.
After a cartwheel moonsault, Carney went for a cover but only got a 2 count. After a flowing hip toss, he went to the top rope but Jim Cornette came
around and grabbed his foot. Carney kicked Cornette away but Hayabusa ran up the turnbuckle and brought him down with a snap mare slam as the crowd was
in awe. Hayabusa hooked the leg and got 1.....2....., but Carney again kicked out. After a scoop slam, Hayabusa went to the top rope and went for a
high risk dragon moonsault but Carney rolled out of the way and he landed hard on his face! Carney then capitalized by going to the top rope and
connecting with the "C-Bomb" and covered him for the victory.
Match Time: 9:18
Coachman: "What a hard fought victory for Carney and what a momentum builder heading into Code Red"!
Honky Tonk Man: "Well it won't be worth a
thing if he doesn't win that match at the pay-per-view".
Coachman: "Look at this, Carney has a hold of Cornette and he's got a mic"!
Carney: "Listen Cornette, I know you know who stole Jansens' katana because he's the same guy who attacked me from behind a couple weeks ago! Now I know your boys let him into the arena and you have five seconds to tell me who it is"!
Cornette: "I....I.....
JUST THEN, CARNEY IS DRILLED WITH A MARTIAL ARTS KICK TO THE BACK FROM KID GUNDAM WHO CAME OUT WHICH KNOCKS HIM DOWN HARD. GUNDAM AND HAYABUSA THEN DELIVER A DOUBLE BRAINBUSTER AS CORNETTE GETS THE MIC.
Cornette: "It's not any of our business who stole the katana! Just know that someone realized
what it was worth and sent someone to retrieve it"!
THE FANS EXPLODE WHEN DYLAN JANSENS COMES OUT AND THE 3 EXIT THE RING.
Coachman: "Thank god for Jansens! But who is the thief"?
Honky Tonk Man: "Well Carney and Jansens may be good friends tonight, but they'll be adversaries at Code Red"! STEPHANIE McMAHON's OFFICE.... EDDIE AND CHAVO GUERRERO BARGE IN, INTERRUPTING STEPH's WORK. Stephanie: "What the hell do you two want"?! Eddie Guerrero: "Hey, who are you copping an attitude with mamacita?! Chavalito and I are the ones who got screwed at Widespread Panic"! Chavo Guerrero: "Yeah, we wanna know what's up with that Steph". Stephanie: "What's up with that? What's up with that is this is my show and I can do whatever I want to on it. You guys thought you were championship worthy, so I gave you a shot against the champions". Eddie: "Without us knowing for christ sake! You can't honestly..... Steph: "I need you both to leave my office....now! I have a contract to prepare for Kurt Angle". OTHER SIDE OF THE ARENA.... TRAVIS WAKEMAN RUNS INTO CHRIS BENOIT WHO IS HOLDING HIS NEWLY WON GOLDEN SINGAPORE CANE. Chris Benoit: "Listen, I'm sorry the gauntlet match had to end the way it did. And to be a good sport, here". BENOIT OFFERS WAKEMAN THE CANE. Travis Wakeman: "Listen Chris, you and I have had our battles in the past and god knows we don't like each other, but I appreciate that. However, I'm not gonna take it. You won the match man, you deserve to have it. Right now, I have a lot more going on at one time". Benoit: "How's Trish doing"? Wakeman: "She's at the hospital now. Shane made me come here tonight because of contractual obligations. So I'm gonna kick the crap out of Kanyon and go straight there". Benoit: "Alright man, well good luck". BENOIT EXTENDS HIS HAND AND WAKEMAN SHAKES IT. ARENA ENTRANCE.... JORDAN ROCKWELL ARRIVES IN STREET CLOTHES. HTM: "Oh boy, things are getting good now"! Coachman: "Jordan Rockwell has srrived! Don't go away"! COMMERCIAL BREAK..... A COMMERCIAL FOR STACKER 2 AND STACKER 2 LITE IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... Coachman: "Folks we're back and you're not gonna believe what transpired during the break, take a look". FOOTAGE REPLAYED FROM DURING THE BREAK..... JORDAN ROCKWELL ENTERS SHANE's OFFICE WHERE 2 UNIFORMED LONG ISLAND POLICE OFFICERS STAND. Jordan Rockwell: "Hey Shane, how's everything"? Shane McMahon: "Don't give me that crap Rockwell". Rockwell: "What"? Shane: "Oh, now you're gonna try and act like you don't know? Go ahead guys". JUST THEN, ONE POLICEMAN SLAPS A PAIR OF HANDCUFFS ON ROCKWELL AFTER PUTTING HIS HANDS BEHIND HIS BACK. Rockwell: "What is going on Shane"? Shane: "Rockwell, you're pathetic. You're not even a good liar. You tell me that you're getting your knee looked at by a surgeon and instead, you attacked a defenseless woman? I'm sorry to say that you are part of this show". Rockwell: "Shane, honestly, I have no idea what you're talking about. I can prove..... Shane: "Get him out of my face guys". THE POLICEMAN HALL ROCKWELL OUT OF THE OFFICE. Coachman: "So Jordan Rockwell has been arrested for his attack last week on Trish Stratus and I hate to say it Honky, but he has to pay for the crime". HTM: "Of course he does! What kind of man attacks a woman anyway"? BACKSTAGE..... Sean O'haire: "I can't believe it man, Jordan's going to jail". Carney: Yeah, it's too bad". O'haire: "We've gotta keep the New Breed together while he's gone man, you and I". Carney: "Well I got my triple threat match to worry about Sean, that's my focus right now". O'HAIRE GIVES CARNEY A WEIRD LOOK AS THE SCENE CUTS TO THE RING AND THE CIVIL RIGHTS LOGO APPEARS AND THEIR MUSIC HITS. RON KILLINGS AND TEDDY LONG COME OUT TO A LOT OF HEAT. KILLINGS IS WEARING A REPLICA JACKIE ROBINSON JERSEY. Coachman: "Oh man, is it that time of the show"? HTM: "It's time for Teddy Long's sermon, everybody have their pillows"? Teddy Long: "Before the man, brother Killings here beats the holy high hell out of that white punk Mike Marcellus, I have a few words to say. Ya see, there is only about a week left of black history month and brother Killings here is showing his support by paying his respect to one of the all time greats, Jackie Robinson, the first black baseball player. But what I wanna know is why aren't you fans doing the same? Instead you were red and yellow. THE FANS LOUDLY CHEER. You to to TWF shopzone and you don't find any merchandise of a black man here in the TWF. But you can sure find all the Hulkamania crap that you want! Hogan, you made the biggest mistake of your life when you laid your hands on me at Widespread Panic and for that, you will pay. Ya see, Hogan is the reason why black wrestlers never made it in the early 80's. Look at the Junkyard Dog and Tony Atlas, look at the Natural Butch Reid, I mean the list goes on and..... JUST THEN, "CRAZY TRAIN" BY OZZY OSBOURNE HITS AND MIKE MARCELLUS COMES OUT TO A HUGE POP WEARING A NEW YORK ISLANDERS JERSEY. Coachman: "Thank god"! Long: "Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold it right there. Here is a perfect example. I have a question for you boy. Why is it that you're so in to hockey? Could it be because there are absolutely no black men on the ice"?! Mime Marcellus: "Well for your informantion, a black man led the league in scoring last year, so.... Ron Killings: "Listen punk, you don't get smart with Teddy. You wanna run your mouth, come run your mouth down in the ring"! MARCELLUS DROPS THE MIC AND CHARGES THE RING. HTM: "Here we go"! Ron "The Truth" Killings w/Teddy Long vs. "Crazy Stick" Mike Marcellus
Killings looked to be in tip top shape as he attacked Marcellus the second he slid into the ring and was tenacious is his attack and his stiff right hands rocked Marcellus around the ring. But as he bounced off the ring ropes, Marcellus blasted him with a clothesline and shot some energy into the crowd before
delivering a big jumping elbow drop. He then shot Killings to the corner and charged in but Killings moved and actually did the splits before delivering
a clothesline. Killings then came off the middle rope with a legdrop and hooked the leg but Marcellus kicked out after 2. Killings then went for a
vertical suplex but Marcellus blocked it and came back with one of his own. He then whipped him to the ropes and delivered a big back body drop when
Teddy Long got onto the apron. But Kevin "Sledge Hamma" Sledge came running out and pulled Long down! But seconds later, Randy Orton and John Cena
jumped out of th crowd and clobbered Sledge. Marcellus saw this and tried to go out and do something about it but Killings came from behind and hit the "Truth be told" to get the 3 count. Match Time: 5:03
Coachman: "Thanks to Orton and Cena, Killings has stolen one here tonight"!
Honky Tonk Man: "You don't turn
your back on your opponent! That's a rookie mistake! I wouldn't doubt if Long uses Killings in that six man tag at Code Red"!
AFTER CENA DELIVERED THE "CENA-PLEX" TO SLEDGE ON THE FLOOR, ORTON WENT IN AND HIT MARCELLUS WITH
THE "O-ZONE" AND BOTH MEN WERE LEFT LAYING. FINALLY, SECURITY CAME OUT AND PULLED THE TWO AWAY.
Coachman: "This is ridiculous! Randy Orton has the
match of his life later with Hulk Hogan and this is what he's concerning himself with"!
Honky Tonk Man: "They've got a huge score to settle with these two idiots! Marcellus cost Cena his spot in the Royal Rumble and then they cheated to beat them in that tag team match on RAW"! Coachman: "What match were you watchin'"? A VIDEO PACKAGE IS SHOWN WITH HIGHLIGHTS FROM WIDESPREAD PANIC, AN EVENT THAT GENERATED THE TWF MILLIONS BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, EARNED THEM MANY, MANY MORE FANS. EVOLUTION's MUSIC HITS AND THEY COME OUT TO A GOOD CHEER. Coachman: "Widespread Panic was absolutely off the hook Honky, what an event"! HTM: "Off the hook? We don't talk like that where I'm from Coach. But the reason for it's success was obvious, it was me"! CHRIS TIRPAK AND BRADSHAW COME OUT TO THEIR NEW THEME AND THEY GET A GOOD CHEER AS WELL. Coachman: "Well I'd argue that but it's now time to see who will earn a trip to Code Red for the TWF Tag Team titles as this newly formed tandem of Chris Tirpak and Bradshaw will have to beat the former champs who are a very formidable team". HTM: "I don't think it matters who wins, neither team can beat Chono and Muta".
# 1 Contenders for TWF Tag Team Titles
Chris Tirpak and Bradshaw vs. Evolution
In a highly competitve match, Evolution showed off their high risk abilities to counter the size and strength of Tirpak and Bradshaw. But after taking a
heavy does of offense from both men, Tirpak swatted away a missile dropkick by Kazarian and Nova came in as did Bradshaw. After Tirpak clotheslined Nova
to the floor, Bradshaw hit the "Clothesline from Hell" on Kazarian and Tirpak turned and covered him for the pin.
Match Time: 6:11
Coachman: "Oh what a shot by Bradshaw! I think Kazarian is out"!
Honky Tonk Man: "What happened to this Evoution team? They've gone downhill faster than Milli Vanilli"!
Coachman: "Evolution has nothing to be ashamed of. They
put up a great fight and they'll be a force in the tag team division again I'm sure. But congratulations to Tirpak and Bradshaw"!
Honky Tonk Man: "Yeah, congratultions! Your reward, Chono and Muta"! BACKSTAGE.... CHRISTOPHER NOWINSKI IS SHOWN WEARING HIS HARVARD LETTER JACKET AND TALKING ON THE CELL PHONE. Christopher Nowinski: "No, I'll listen to what you said. But listen to this, from now on, I'm the new Mr. Perfect. Ya like that, so do I". COMMERCIAL BREAK.... THE CODE RED PROMO IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK... BACKSTAGE.... AUSTIN PYROMANIA IS PACING AROUND BACKSTAGE WHEN JACKIE GAYDA COMES UP TO HIM. Austin Pyromania: "What do you want"? Jackie Gayda: "Gee, a little hostile are we? The reason I came is because I saw that ring you had and I had a change of heart. I was just wondering if maybe there can be some sort of reconciliation". Pyromania: "You had a change of heart? What, is Matt not cutting it"? Jackie: "No, no, no, you've got me all wrong Austin. Can I please just have one look at that ring"? PYROMANIA SEEMS HESITANT BUT HE TURNS TO GET IT AND IS ATTACKED FROM BEHIND BY MATT TAYLOR WHO DOES A NUMBER ON HIM. Jackie: "You're stupider than you look Austin! I would never take that piece of crap from you"! JACKIE AND KOO BEAR LEAVE PYROMANIA LAYING AS THE SCENE CUTS BACK TO RINGSIDE. NAILS' MUSIC HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS WITH THE TOUGHMAN TITLE AROUND HIS WAIST. Honky Tonk Man: "This guy still has that belt? Good lord"! Coachman: "Well I don't know if he will after Code Red Honky, he's gotta face ZeroEx in a last man standing match"! HTM: "Well last month, he hit him over the head with a cinder block and made him lose the few brain cells he had left, so who knows what ZeroEx is capabale of"! A LOUD HOWL IS HEARD AS "DON'T TURN YOUR BACK ON THE WOLFPAC" PLAYS AND KEVIN NASH COMES OUT TO A BIG POP. Coachman: "Well speaking of Code Red, it was just announced earlier today that Big Sexy Kevin Nash will go one on one with Spawn and what a brutal war that is gonna be"! A PROMO FOR THAT MATCH IS SHOWN WITH THE CODE RED LOGO ON IT. HTM: "Well he's gotta survive this match with Nails before he does anything"! Non-Title Match Kevin Nash vs. Toughman champ Nails Before the bell sounded, Nails demanded that referee Chad Patton pat down Nash for foreign objects and as this was going on, Nails attacked him from behind. After several hard shots to the back, Nails laid in some heavy right hands before whipping him to the ropes and hitting him with a clothesline that staggered him. Nails then went to the middle turnbuckle and attempted a double axe handle but Nash blocked it and blasted him with a big clothesline. Nash then flung him to the corner and blasted his masked face with his barrage of elbows. He then shot him to the corner and as he came out, Nash picked him up for a walking sideslam. Nash began to feel it as he raised one arm in the air before sending Nails for the ride again. But this time, Nails ducked a big boot and clipped the back of Nash's left knee with a chop block. After a kick to the midsection, Nails hit a hard ddt before reaching into his back pocket and pulling out his always handy brass knuckles. But Patton got involved and stood in Nails' way. Nails tried to get around him but Patton grabbed the hand they were on. But with his free hand, Nails clubbed Patton, knocking him to the mat! Nash came at Nails but caught a kick in the groin and went down in a heap when out came ZeroEx. He entered the ring without Nails' knowledge and when Nails turned around, ZeroEx caught him with a hard superkick to the face. ZeroEx then helped Patton recover as Nash picked him way up and delivered the Jacknife for the victory. Match Time: 6:12 HTM: "Why didn't the ref just DQ Nails? There was no need for it to continue"! Coachman: "It was a judgement call by Patton and he may not even remember getting whacked by Nails! But what a message ZeroEx has sent as Code Red is drawing near"! HTM: "Oh boy, look out"! JUST THEN, SPAWN ENTERS THE RING AND TAKES OUT NASH FROM BEHIND. AFTER A SERIOUS BEATING, SPAWN DELIVERS A POWERBOMB OF HIS OWN TO NASH. HTM: "Speaking of sending messages"! Coachman: "Well I think Big Sexy got this one loud and clear and Spawn's gonna find that out at Code Red"! SUDDENLY, THE SCENE CHANGES INTO THE INSIDE OF A HOME. HTM: "Wait a minute, what is this"? BAHAMUT COMES INTO VIEW. Coachman: "Oh no, I was hoping he wouldn't". BAHAMUT IS SITTING AT A TABLE WITH A WOMAN AND A SMALL BOY. Woman: "So Bah, what is with the camera" Bahamut: "Well I was hoping Strife would change his mind, so he could at least see you guys this way". Woman: "How sweet of you. He really said he had better things to do than to come here tonight? I mean, he hasn't seen me or Elijah in almost a month". Bahamut: "I know, I hate to break the news to you this way. I mean, he didn't even have a match tonight". Woman: "You don't think he's.... Bahamut: "I'm not sure Miriam, you never know with Strife. I mean, he got the nickname Locomotive somehow". Woman: "Well, it was so nice of you to come and visit since you were in the area, but this is.... this is so hard". A TEAR RUNS DOWN THE WOMAN's CHEEK AND BAHAMUT WRAPS HIS ARM AROUND HER SHOULDER. Bahamut: "I know, I can't imagine your pain". THE CAMERA PICKS UP AN EVIL SMILE ON THE FACE OF BAHAMUT BEFORE THE CAMERA TURNS OFF AND LIVE FOOTAGE IS SHOWN BACK AT RINGSIDE. "WHO BETTA" THAN KANYON HITS AND HE COMES OUT TO A LOT OF BOOS. Coachman: "I'm.... I'm speechless. I can't believe someone would stoop to that". HTM: "For once, I gotta agree with you Coach. If there's one thing you don't mess with, it's a man's family". "MAKE WAY" HITS AND TRAVIS WAKEMAN COMES OUT TO A MIXED REACTION. Coachman: "Well on that subject, I would hate to be the guy who attacked Trish when this guy gets his hands on him. I still can't figure out why Rockwell would do such a thing and folks, this will be the first time Trish has not been in Wakeman's corner since WrestleMania 2 and he's gonna have his hands full tonight". HTM: "He sure is, but what Wakeman should do is stop playing games and admit he likes Crystal Carmichael better than her"! Coachman: "Well that hasn't been proven Honky, I think Wakeman is confused. But Trish is in a Tacoma, Washington hospital as she has had a severe headache and post traumatic stress problems since the attack but I'm sure if she can, she's watching tonight and our get well soon wishes go out to her". Kanyon vs. Travis Wakeman As the bell sounded, a collar and elbow tie up led to a great series of chain wrestling but after sweeping Kanyon's legs out with his hands, Wakeman went right to work on his right arm, trying to hyperextend it. Kanyon struggled through it and tried to punch his way out of the predicament but the Technical Magician had his arm in a precarious spot. Wakeman then pulled the arm out and used 2 legdrops right on the point of the elbow before wrapping his arm around his knee. Somehow, Kanyon worked it into a cradle pin and nearly got a 3 count but an alert Wakeman kicked out. Wakeman went for an irish whip but Kanyon reversed it and caught him with a spinwheel kick before delivering 3 straight elbow drops. That led to a fireman's carry and Kanyon covered him but Wakeman again kicked out at 2. Wakeman would take a lot of punishment from Kanyon but after reversing an irish whip, he planted him with a t-bone suplex when Raven came out with a steel chair. But Wakeman punched the chair right into his face and picked it up, plastering Kanyon with it as referee Charles Robinson called for the DQ. But Wakeman was intent on delivering more punishment when Raven came from behind with a low blow and then hit the "Evenflow" right on the chair. Match Time: 8:55 Coahcman: "My god, did you hear that thud"? HTM: "Hey, he deserves this as far as I'm concerned"! RAVEN ASKED FOR AND RECEIVED THE HOUSE MIC FROM RING ANNOUNCER TONY CHIMEL. Raven: "Ya see, every day, you get a little wiser. However Wakeman, this fact seems to have bypassed you. Tommorow, you will be wiser than you were today and today, you were wiser than you were yesterday. Ya see, in Raven Enterprises, hindsight does not exist, the future is now and Wakeman, the future for us is Code Red. Who is us? Well I know you think it's just myself and Kanyon, but trust me, there are others who believe and understand my message. Quote the Raven, never more". RAVEN DROPS THE MIC AND "END OF EVERYTHING" BY STEREOMUD HITS AS HE AND KANYON EXIT THE RING. Honky Tonk Man: "Did you understand a word he just said Coach"? Coachman: "No". HTM: "I knew his education level was far greater than yours". Coachman: "Well it will be Raven one on one with Travis Wakeman at Code Red and Raven looks ready. What the.... JUST THEN, AS WAKEMAN BEGINS TO SIT UP, THE TWF TRON COMES ON AND SHOWS TRISH LAYING ASLEEP IN HER HOSPITAL BED. AS SOON AS A NURSE EXITS, CRYSTAL CARMICHAEL ENTERS. HTM: "Oh my god, look at who it is"! Crystal Carmichael: "Oh hey Travis, can't wait to see you again. I just thought that now would be a great time to give Trish that letter you wrote. See ya later". CARMICHAEL BLOWS A KISS AS THE FOOTAGE CUTS OFF. WAKEMAN IS SHOWN WITH A VERY CONCERNED LOOK ON HIS FACE AND HIS LIPS READ "WHAT"? HTM: "He wrote her a letter"? Coachman: "Okay, what is going on? I don't understand this at all but it sure looks like news to Wakeman"! BACKSTAGE..... HULK HOGAN IS WALKING BACKSTAGE AS THE CROWD GOES WILD AT HIS SIGHT. BUT THEY TURN TO BOOS WHEN HE IS CONFRONTED BY RANDY ORTON. Randy Orton: "Hey Hogan, you ready or do you need to go put your pacemaker away"? Hulk Hogan: "Listen Randy, I will be ready for tonight, you can count on that. Matter of fact, on the first ever Saturday Night's Main Event with another company, I wrestled your father Bob. Ask him if I was ready that night". Orton: "That was twenty years ago and you faced my dad, you didn't face me". ORTON WALKS AWAY AS MEAN GENE OKERLUND IS SHOWN FOLLOWING STRIFE WHO IS TEARING UP THE ARENA IN HIS PATH. Mean Gene: "Strife, wait up, just a few questions"! STRIFE DOESN'T EVEN TURN TO LOOK AS HE WALKS OUT THE ARENA EXIT, BREAKING A SMALL PLATE OF GLASS IN THE DOOR AS SNME GOES TO COMMERCIAL. COMMERCIAL BREAK..... A COMMERCIAL FOR DEAD OR ALIVE 2 PRO BEACH VOLLEYBALL FOR X-BOX IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... SHANE's OFFICE.... SHANE IS AT HIS DESK WHEN SHAWN MICHAELS ENTERS. Shane: "Hey Shawn, what's up"? Shawn Michaels: "Well, did you get a chance to talk to Brock about that F5 at Widespread Panic"? Shane: "No, I figured you'd wanna handle it". Michaels: "Oh really? Well in that case, I want a match with him at Code Red, one on one". Shane: "I can't sanction a match like that Shawn, not with all the injuries you've suffered. Consider your well being man". Michaels: "I have considered it and even if you won't sanction it, I'll use my authority as an enforcer to make that match Shane, I have to". BACK AT RINGSIDE, "LIVE FOR THE MOMENT" BY MONSTER MAGNET HITS AS MATT HARDY AND THE HURRICANE MAKE THEIR WAY OUT TO THE RING. Coachman: "Did you hear that? The Heartbreak Kid versus the Next Big Thing at Code Red, wow"! HTM: "That's gonna be one I can't wait to see Coach, I've been longing for the day for someone to put Michaels out for good"! THE FANS GO BALLISTIC WHEN THE GLASS BREAKS AND STONE COLD's MUSIC HITS AS HE COMES OUT TO A HUGE ROAR. Coachman: "As many times as he outclassed you, I can see that! But here comes the rattlesnake and lately Honky, he and RVD have made a great combination"! HTM: "Well they still can't stand each other and it's because they've both got egos the size of Austin's home state"! AS AUSTIN CLIMBS UP ON THE TURNBUCKLE AND RAISES HIS ARMS, HE IS ATTACKED FROM BEHIND BY MATT HARDY AND THE HURRICANE. THEY GIVE HIM A DOUBLE TEAM BEATING FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS UNTIL "ONE OF A KIND" BY BREAKING POINT PLAYS AND ROB VAN DAM COMES OUT TO A BIG POP AND THE MATCH IS UNDERWAY. Matt Hardy & The Hurricane vs. "Stone Cold" Steve Austin & Rob Van Dam RVD paired off against the Hurricane and Austin won a battle of right hands with Hardy before they whipped the two right into each other. Referee Tim White then sent one man from each side out and it was Austin who hit Matt with a russian leg sweep before tagging in RVD who immediately went for the Rolling Thunder but Matt rolled out of the way. Matt then dropped a big elbow on RVD before backing him to the corner with a succession of right hands followed by a hard discus punch. He looked over at The Hurricane but decided not to tag out and he delivered a vertical suplex and covered RVD but without having a leg hooked, RVD kicked out after 2. Matt kept the pressure on but stayed in the ring for another 5 minutes without a tag until RVD ducked a clothesline and caught him with a spinning heel kick. Hurricane tagged himself in and hit RVD with a flying clothesline before he could make the tag. He then hit a flying neckbreaker and went for the cover but RVD was up and 2. But Matt tagged himself back into the ring and went and hit Austin with a cheap shot. Austin came into the ring but was met by The Hurricane. After absorbing a few of the Hurricane's right hands, Austin blocked one and knocked him to the floor with one of his own. He then turned and pushed Matt right into a spinning heel kick from RVD that caught him flush in the mouth. RVD then hurriedly leapt up to the top rope and hit the "5 Star Frogsplash" to get the 1......2......3. Match Time: 11:06 HTM: "Ahhhh"! Coachman: "It looks to me like RVD and Austin have gotten on the same page and Austin is gonna let him have the spotlight tonight"! AUSTIN WALKS AWAY AND GOES BACKSTAGE TO A BIG CHEER. AS RVD CELEBRATES IN THE RING, THE MUSIC STOPS WHEN DREW BLOOD AND BATISTA COME OUT OF THE CROWD AND ATTACK HIM. THEY BEAT THE HECK OUT OF RVD UNTIL RHYNO COMES OUT AND HITS BATISTA WITH A "GORE" BUT DREW BLOOD MANAGES TO GET OUT OF THE RING AS RHYNO's MUSIC HITS. HTM: "What the hell is Rhyno doing out here"? Coachman: "Well thank god he came out, Drew Blood and Batista were gonna mame RVD"! BACKSTAGE..... MEAN GENE OKERLUND IS STANDING BY WITH HIGH OCTANE. Mean Gene: "What a show it's been tonight folks and right now, I am here with High Octane who will be part of that big 6 man tag team match at Code Red. But what everyone wants to know about are these common law marriage claims made by Nidia. Is this true Damion"? High Octane: "Ya know Gene, to be honest, I don't wanna talk about that right now. I've hired a lawyer and he's looking into all that. Right now, I just wanna prepare for Code Red". Mean Gene: "Okay then, back to you and Honky Coach". HTM: "Touch a nerve did ya Gene"? Coachman: "Well folks, standing by with a huge announcement on Code Red, here's Shane McMahon". SHANE's OFFICE.... Shane: "I just wanted to take a minute to let you all know my main event for Code Red, which just came to me after what happened a few moments ago. At Code Red, it will be Stone Cold Steve Austin and Rob Van Dam teaming up against Drew Blood and Batista. However, there will be a guest enforcer for that match and his name is Rhyno. Oh and one other thing, on the very next PrimeTime, Drew Blood will defend the Universal title against Rhyno. Thank you". Coachman: "What a main event! Folks don't go anywhere, Randy Orton takes on Hulk Hogan.... and it's next"! COMMERCIAL BREAK..... A COMMERCIAL FOR SNICKERS IS SHOWN. RETURN FROM BREAK.... RINGSIDE.... AS SNME RETURNS, THE MATCH IS ALREADY UNDERWAY. Hulk Hogan vs. Randy Orton w/ John Cena Orton really expolited some of Hogan's weaknesses as his youth paid off in a decided speed and agility advantage. After a beautiful dropkick, Orton went to the top rope and hit a perfect cross body block and Hogan was fortunate to kick out at 2. After a flying back elbow, Orton hit the "O-Zone" and went for the cover but didn't hook the leg and Hogan was up at 2. Hogan then got up and you could see a serious look in his eye as he began "hulking" up. Orton continued to hammer him with right hands but they had no effect. After blocking one, Hogan whipped him to the ropes and caught him with his big boot which led to the atomic legdrop and a 1....2....3. Match Time: 5:38 AFTER THE MATCH, CENA TRIED TO GET INVOLVED BUT HOGAN FOUGHT HIM OFF. SUDDENLY, TRIPLE H AND STEINER CAME OUT AS DID THE UNDERTAKER AND HIGH OCTANE AND THE FIGHT WAS ON. AS THEY BRAWLED AROUND THE RING, ALL 4 MEMBERS OF CIVIL RIGHTS CAME OUT AND JUMPED HOGAN. THEY HELD HIM UP AS TEDDY LONG VIOLENTLY SLAPPED HIM ACROSS THE FACE NUMEROUS TIMES. HTM: "Teddy said he was gonna get you back Hogan, look at you now"! Coachman: "What are we gonna see at Code Red? This is chaotic"! PARKING LOT.... JUST BEFORE SNME GOES OFF THE AIR, CAMERAS PICK UP MATT TAYLOR AND AUSTIN PYROMANIA WHO ARE BRAWLING INTO THE STREET AS JACKIE GAYDA NERVOUSLY WATCHES FROM THE ARENA ENTRANCE. OFF AIR....
