Todd Grisham-Welcome everyone to the first episode of GWA Catastrophe live from Providence, Rhode Island at the Dunkin Donut Center. And for now on until the end of time we will be live with you every Monday Night. And as always I’m joined by the GWA’s own professor, the ever so knowledgeable, Matt Striker.
Matt Striker-Thank you for the lovely introduction Todd. And it is an honor to be here with you folks today. Whether you are watching at home or you are sitting in this arena, you are in for quite the show.
Grisham-That they are Matt. This is the first of the six brands to debut. We all saw the Supershow in which The Rock was crowned the first Undisputed Champion of the GWA in an epic final match against Stone Cold Steve Austin.
Striker-What a great night it was to be a fan of not just the GWA but professional wrestling in general. We saw the return of The Rock and Steve Austin. Plus each brand showcased a match of their own and the tournament matches leading up to the final were quite special. It was great to be there in person calling the action.
Grisham-I’m sure it was Matt and it was just as good watching it backstage live as it unfolded. Onto a more serious matter now. Over the past few weeks leading up to the big show, our general manager, Bret “Hitman” Hart has gone missing. He missed the Supershow and as of right now Hart has yet to arrive and we aren’t sure if he will show up tonight or not. For an update on the whole situation lets send it back to our very own, Christy Hemme. Christy take it away.
Christy-Thanks guys. As of right now all I can report is that Bret Hart is still running things here at Monday Night Catastrophe. While he hasn’t shown up, he has faxed reports and things for his secretary to take care over. Right now she is just relaying Bret’s words.
Secretary (Yelling)-I can’t do this! I don’t know how to run a show. I know very little about wrestling. I type and answer phone calls for a living. How the hell does Bret expect me to run a wrestling show?
Christy-What’s a matter? What are you talking about?
Secretary-Bret never gave me any notes for what to do. There is nothing scheduled for tonight. You saw what happened at the Supershow. D’Angelo Dinero asked me if he could speak to his people. I gave him the okay and now he is on my back about a rematch with Benjamin. I don’t know what to do. If Bret doesn’t show up soon I might have to cancel the show.
Christy-Calm down. I’m sure together we can run a show. Let’s not get wrapped up. I’ll be here to help you.
Kevin Nash-Ladies, ladies please. There is no need to get up in arms. How about you guys just relax and take a seat. Big Sexy is here to make the save. I’ll man down the fort until Bret shows his face. So we are gonna take a quick commercial folks, but I promise when we get back we will have plenty of action featuring the stars of GWA Catastrophe.
Commercial Break
Christy-Do we have a match? Kevin, do we have a match? And why are you in Bret’s office?
Nash (hanging up the phone)-Is Bret here? Exactly. Until he gets back, this is Big Sexy’s show to run. And of course we do sugar. Did you think Big Sexy couldn’t throw a match together over a commercial break?
Christy-No, no…
Nash-It’s alright, no need to explain yourself. Now please have a seat and enjoy a Big Sexy production.
Christy-Where am I suppose to sit.
Nash (slapping his leg)-On my lap, where else.
*Christy shrugs her shoulders and sits down, as Nash turns on the office TV set.*
Justin Roberts-This match is scheduled for one fall and it is the first ever match in Monday Night Catastrophe history!
Lance Cade’s Theme
Roberts-Introducing first, from San Antonio, Texas…LANCE CADE!
Grisham-Here we go Matt. We are finally kicking off Catastrophe, as Lance Cade will kick off the show.
Striker-Ahh yes, the Rough House, the Modern Day Texas Ranger, Lance Cade. Whoever is Cade’s opponent tonight is going to have their hands full.
Cade gets into the ring as he is still being booed. Cade takes off his cowboy hat and his leather vest and hands them to the equipment manager. He bounces off the ropes as he awaits his opponent.
Jamie Noble’s Theme
Roberts-And his opponent, from Hanover, West Virginia...JAMIE NOBLE!
Noble appears on stage as he plays up to the crowd, receiving a minor pop. Noble turns his attention to the ring and looks focused.
Grisham-Lets not underestimated Jamie Noble Matt. Noble is one feisty little fellow.
Striker-You got that right Todd. The Pitbull, the Redneck Messiah, Jamie Noble. While he may be small his bite is big. Cade is still the favorite to win in my educated opinion, but like you said Todd lets not count out Hanover’s finest.
Grisham-That’s really not saying much is it?
Striker-No not at all.
Match Results/Description
Grisham-What an announcement from Bret Hart. What are your thoughts Matt?
Striker-For once in my life Todd I’m speechless. Bret Hart has finally delivered and Catastrophe will reign supreme.
Commercial Break
Christian’s Theme
Roberts-Introducing first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada...CHRISTIAN!
Striker-Here comes the Pontiff of the Peepulation. The one and only Captain Charisma. Are you a peep Todd?
Grisham-Yes Matt, yes I am. Listen to the ovation Christian received here at the Dunkin’ Donut Center. One of the most popular stars in the business today and he resides right here on Monday nights!
Jeff Hardy’s Theme
Roberts-And his opponent, from Raleigh, North Carolina...JEFF HARDY!
Striker-Hate to rain on Christian’s parade, but I think his ovation has been topped! Here comes the Charismatic Enigma, our very own Rainbow Haired Warrior, Jeff Hardy.
Grisham-You know when Hardy is involved in a match there is bound to be excitement. And with the history between these two, this match could be our first instant classic.
Match Desription/Result
Nash-Welcome back Hitman. Good to see ya again.
Hart-Thanks Kev, but why are you in my office and what gave you the right to run the show?
Nash-Well it is simple really, besides you I’m the only one capable of doing something around here in a booker’s mindset. Bret really, I’m the smartest man in wrestling.
Hart-Alright then Kev, if you’re so smart then I guess you will see this coming. Tonight you have a match against an opponent of my choosing. So I’d get ready if I were you.
Grisham-Looks like Big Sexy got what was coming to him Matt.
Striker-While I may mark out for Bret Hart, there was no reason to be so rude to Kevin Nash. Nash was doing Hart a favor and that is how Hart treats him in return.
Commercial Break
Roberts-This match is scheduled for one fall and the winner will receive a future shot at the European Championship!
Sheamus’ Theme
Roberts-Introducing first from Dublin, Ireland...SHEAMUS!
Grisham-It doesn’t seem like the fans here care much for Sheamus.
Striker-Which is a ridiculous statement there Grish. Sheamus is one of wrestling’s brightest young stars and he will make an impact here on Catastrophe.
Grisham-I can agree with the brightest part. You need a pair of sunglasses when he walks into the room.
Striker-Oh please Todd, like you have any room to talk.
Jay Lethal’s Theme
Roberts-And his opponent from Elizabeth, New Jersey...“BLACK MACHISMO” JAY LETHAL!
Grisham-A solid ovation for everyone’s favorite impressionist, Jay Lethal.
Striker-Technically an impressionist does more than one impression. Lethal is known for just one and that is of wrestling great Randy Savage. Ohhhh yeah, dig it. I could do this shtick. We could call me Matt Machismo!
Grisham-How bout you stick to announcing, partner.
Match Description/Result
Natalya-UNCLE BRET!!!!!
Hart-Hey guys, sorry for being so disconnected from you guys.
Natalya-It is alright now that we know you are ok.
Hart-So what can I do for you guys?
David Hart Smith-We were wondering if we could get a match next week?
Hart-Of course, of course. And if you win that match next week you guys will be the tag team champions!
Tyson Kidd-Well then sir you might just want to hand us the titles now, because we are better than the best…PERIOD!
Commercial Break
MVP’s Theme (MVP already in ring)
MVP-Ladies and gentlemen of the GWA, welcome to the VIP Lounge. As always I’m your host MVP and in the lounge it’s always big things poppin’, little things stoppin’! Now it is great to finally be back and it is even better to have an episode of the VIP Lounge on Monday Night Catastrophe’s debut show. Lets get the show kickin’ with my first guests and good friend of mine. He is the World’s Strongest Man, MARK HENRY!
Mark Henry’s Theme
MVP-Have a seat Mark and welcome to the Lounge.
Mark Henry-Thanks man, it’s an honor.
MVP-Well brother, what do you plan on doing here on Monday Night’s?
Henry-Well do you remember when I defeated Randy Orton and I had all the momentum?
MVP-How could I forgot. I’ll admit I marked out a bit.
Henry-Well I didn’t capitalize on that momentum. Now I plan on recapturing it and dominating here on Monday Nights.
MVP-That is what I want to hear dog. Good to see there is still some fighting spirit in you.
Mr. Kennedy’s Theme
Mr. Kennedy-Well, well, well. What do we have here? A little reunion of a tag team that was completely useless. Tisk tisk. MVP I guess I thought you were smarter than you looked. You see I thought you’d at least book the next superstar in the wrestling superstar MIIISSSSSSSTERRRRRR
MVP-Now hold up dog. You don’t go and interrupt the Lounge. My goal on the Lounge is to please these great fans and you sir are not what these people want to see.
Kennedy-Is that so MVP? These people don’t want to see me, yet they want to see a washed up star who is living off his past. You see MVP I’m not out here to challenge you. No you see, I’m out here for a piece of Mark Henry. Mark you think you are going to make an impact here? Well that train is going to stop short. So what do you say Mark? You against me, next week on Catastrophe.
Henry-If that is what you want Kennedy, then that is what you got. You are going to fall victim to the World’s Strongest Man.
Kennedy-You tell yourself that Mark. Cause when it is all said and done and the lights go out and all that will be heard throughout the arena is “the winner of the match, MIIISSSSSSSSTERRRRRR KENNNNNNNNEDDDDDDYYYYYY……..KENNNNNEEEEEEDDDDYYYYYYY!”
Commercial Break
Roberts-This match is scheduled for onefall!
Kevin Nash’s Theme
Roberts-Introducing first, from Detroit, Michigan…“BIG SEXY” KEVIN NASH!
Striker-Here comes a man who was unfairly placed in a match tonight. The tour starts tonight here on Catastrophe, none other than Big Daddy Cool, the Silver Fox, Big Sexy Kevin Nash!
Grisham-Unfairly Matt? I’m sorry I still don’t see your point. Nash was trying to take over.
Striker-It is going to take more than a person with my IQ to get you to understand any point that is trying to be made their young Todd.
Sting’s Theme
Roberts-And his opponent from Venice Beach, California…“THE ICON” STING!
Grisham-Listen to this ovation!!!! Sting is here. I wasn’t so sure if he was going to show up. As we know Sting wasn’t originally drafted to the Catastrophe brand, he was traded here in a trade featuring Bobby Lashley.
Striker-This match is featuring two of the biggest names of the Monday Night Wars. Two guys who put WCW on the map and two legends of the ring.
Match Description/Result
Matt Hardy-Nice match out there earlier little bro.
Jeff Hardy-Thanks man, brought back some solid memories.
Matt-I bet it did. Speaking of old memories, how about we give the GWA Hardy Boyz reunion tour?
Jeff-That would be pretty extreme now wouldn’t it.
Matt-Hart Dynasty needs opponents for next week and what better way to kick it off by winning the tag team championship.
Jeff-I like the sounds of that. Lets pitch this match to Bret and get ourselves some tag team gold.
Commercial Break
D’angelo Dinero-Bret “Hitman” Hart, it is truly a great pleasure to meet you.
Hart-Well thank you Pope, it is great to finally meet you.
Dinero-Now don’t you go and be making Pope blush now haha.
Hart-What can I do for you D’angelo?
Dinero-I just wanted to ask for a rematch against that Dennis Rodman wannabe Shelton Benjamin. You watched the Supershow, I deserve it.
Hart-You know what Pope, you do deserve the rematch. So consider it a done deal. Next week, you verse Shelton Benjamin.
Dinero-Now that is…
Hart-Hold on. And the winner of the match will be declared the first United States champion here on Catastrophe.
Dinero-Oh snap sir. Now that is Pimpin’.

Noble uses the ropes to get to his feet, as he is near the corner. Cade runs at him, but Noble moves out of the way and Cade crashes into the corner.

Cade falls to the outside, as Noble plays to the crowd. Noble goes to the outside and lifts Cade up. Noble hits him with a right, followed by a chop to the chest.

KICK OUT!
Cade lifts Noble up and pulls him into a clothesline. Cade lifts Noble up again, but is interrupted when the crowd bursts for a huge pop.
Look here for the reason!
Grisham-I DON’T BELIEVE IT, HE IS HERE! Bret Hart has finally arrived.
Striker-And listen to the ovation. Bret Hart has finally showed up to the show he has built. And he has a microphone, lets see what Hitman has to say.
Hart-That is definitely an ovation I didn’t expect. After no showing and making the great fans of the GWA worry about my whereabouts I figured I’d receive a round of boos. I guess that is relieving. It is great to finally be back. Now I guess I owe everyone an explanation. Before I get to there I want to apologize to Lance Cade and Jamie Noble for interrupting their match. Unfortunately fellows I will be cancelling your match, as it isn’t on the card I have scheduled for tonight. But don’t worry you’ll guys have the rematch on the first web match on the Catastrophe website that will happen each week.
*Cade is angry as he storms out of the ring, Noble follows*
Hart (now in the ring)-As you all know I haven’t been seen or heard from since the draft. I did a lot of thinking in that time span and I thought maybe it was time to get back at Vince McMahon for what he did to me back in Montreal. I know he takes the GWA more seriously than anyone else and I knew it would get under his skin if I bought in only to screw him and back out. That is why I missed the Supershow. But after thinking it over there is really only one way to get back at Vince. It doesn’t involve leaving this brand or the company. It involves making Catastrophe the single and most successful brand in the GWA. (HUGE POP)
Now lets get things started how I planned them. Tonight in our main event we will see our two Supershow representatives go one on one, as Undertaker and Edge will square off. And to open the show we will see two guys who have some history with one another, Christian and Jeff Hardy! Lets get this show on the road!

Striker-What a sound strategy by Christian here. He knows Hardy is hurt and he is focusing on that. I can’t see this match going on much longer.

Christian lifts Hardy up and attempts the Killswitch, but Hardy pushes him off into the corner. Hardy runs at Christian, but is met with an elbow square to the face. Christian then catapults himself off the middle ropes and nails Hardy with a crossbody into a cover.

Grisham-There it is Matt! One quick move and this match could very well favor Jeff Hardy.
Striker-Just to play devil’s advocate Todd, but both men are down, so momentum is relatively equal right now.
Both men are slow to their feet, but Hardy pounces quickly and he kicks Christian in the gut and goes for the Twist of Fate. Christian counters and shoves Hardy away. Christian is quick to attempt another Killswitch, but again Hardy counters. Christian turns around and goes to punch Hardy, but Hardy ducks and nails a turning Christian with a Twist of Fate.

Grisham-What a fantastic match! The perfect way to kick off the show.
Striker-Yes it was Todd. And good call on Hardy being able to gain back the momentum. You can never count out the Charismatic Enigma. But we can’t forget to give some props to Christian. Yes he may have lost, but what a fight he put up.
Grisham-Couldn’t have said it better myself Matt.
Hardy celebrates as Christian gets to his feet. Hardy goes to head out, but Christian grabs him and puts his hand out for a shake. Hardy claps his hands and shakes Christian’s hand and heads out. Christian claps and waves to the crowd as he heads to the back.

Hart-Thanks Kev, but why are you in my office and what gave you the right to run the show?
Nash-Well it is simple really, besides you I’m the only one capable of doing something around here in a booker’s mindset. Bret really, I’m the smartest man in wrestling.
Hart-Alright then Kev, if you’re so smart then I guess you will see this coming. Tonight you have a match against an opponent of my choosing. So I’d get ready if I were you.
Grisham-Looks like Big Sexy got what was coming to him Matt.
Striker-While I may mark out for Bret Hart, there was no reason to be so rude to Kevin Nash. Nash was doing Hart a favor and that is how Hart treats him in return.

Sheamus’ Theme
[YOUTUBE]oSq0mE-Lmx0[/YOUTUBE]
Roberts-Introducing first from Dublin, Ireland...SHEAMUS!
Grisham-It doesn’t seem like the fans here care much for Sheamus.
Striker-Which is a ridiculous statement there Grish. Sheamus is one of wrestling’s brightest young stars and he will make an impact here on Catastrophe.
Grisham-I can agree with the brightest part. You need a pair of sunglasses when he walks into the room.
Striker-Oh please Todd, like you have any room to talk.
Jay Lethal’s Theme
[YOUTUBE]T4Q6Sj1nVPg[/YOUTUBE]
Roberts-And his opponent from Elizabeth, New Jersey...“BLACK MACHISMO” JAY LETHAL!
Grisham-A solid ovation for everyone’s favorite impressionist, Jay Lethal.
Striker-Technically an impressionist does more than one impression. Lethal is known for just one and that is of wrestling great Randy Savage. Ohhhh yeah, dig it. I could do this shtick. We could call me Matt Machismo!
Grisham-How bout you stick to announcing, partner.
Match Description/Result
Referee Justin King signals for the bell and the match is underway. Sheamus tries to head straight for Lethal, but Lethal is too quick and dodges the attacks.

Natalya-UNCLE BRET!!!!!

Hart-Of course, of course. And if you win that match next week you guys will be the tag team champions!
Tyson Kidd-Well then sir you might just want to hand us the titles now, because we are better than the best…PERIOD!

MVP-Well brother, what do you plan on doing here on Monday Night’s?
Henry-Well do you remember when I defeated Randy Orton and I had all the momentum?
MVP-How could I forgot. I’ll admit I marked out a bit.

MVP-Now hold up dog. You don’t go and interrupt the Lounge. My goal on the Lounge is to please these great fans and you sir are not what these people want to see.
Kennedy-Is that so MVP? These people don’t want to see me, yet they want to see a washed up star who is living off his past. You see MVP I’m not out here to challenge you. No you see, I’m out here for a piece of Mark Henry. Mark you think you are going to make an impact here? Well that train is going to stop short. So what do you say Mark? You against me, next week on Catastrophe.
Henry-If that is what you want Kennedy, then that is what you got. You are going to fall victim to the World’s Strongest Man.
Kennedy-You tell yourself that Mark. Cause when it is all said and done and the lights go out and all that will be heard throughout the arena is “the winner of the match, MIIISSSSSSSSTERRRRRR KENNNNNNNNEDDDDDDYYYYYY……..KENNNNNEEEEEEDDDDYYYYYYY!”

D’angelo Dinero-Bret “Hitman” Hart, it is truly a great pleasure to meet you.
Hart-Well thank you Pope, it is great to finally meet you.
Dinero-Now don’t you go and be making Pope blush now haha.
Hart-What can I do for you D’angelo?
Dinero-I just wanted to ask for a rematch against that Dennis Rodman wannabe Shelton Benjamin. You watched the Supershow, I deserve it.
Hart-You know what Pope, you do deserve the rematch. So consider it a done deal. Next week, you verse Shelton Benjamin.
Dinero-Now that is…
Hart-Hold on. And the winner of the match will be declared the first United States champion here on Catastrophe.
Dinero-Oh snap sir. Now that is Pimpin’.
