You should have an alter ego named n00b Sam, and when you're bored on the site, just change into n00b Sam and act like an idiot. Comedy gimmicks get everyone over- fact. Just ask Disco Inferno.
Eric Bischoff comes to the ring... tonights show will be one match long... for total control of the federation. Stone Cold Steve Austin takes on the rest of the roster in a gauntelt match... should he win he gets the company... should he loose he leaves the company for ever....
RESULT: Stone Cold wins... he is now in control of the company... WOH what a match, no one saw those twists and turns coming, a true spectacle... amazing

The sad part is that his show will get more votes than my novel-length show.
Turns out it's the computer itself.

whats the matter with Paul Birchill he was doing good in the FWA untill he went to the WWE
Well, this whole thing has pretty much hit the shitter.
It seems like half the people in this thing can't be assed writing up shows anymore. Not to mention half of the originals got banned at some point. And now that Sam's computer is broken, (maybe) he's going to have trouble writing up his shows too.
I think we should start this again. Slyfox said he'd like to run the next one with his method of roster picking. We should also make sure people are picked who are committed and aren't going to stop writing halfway through the things because they've had a hectic two weeks or just can't be bothered.
I'd like to carry on with this, but it seems that only me, Sam, Shango and possibly numbers are bothering to carry on.

My plan to usurp you has gone to shit!
And Matt, I got a keyboard that slots into my USB drive. However, my show will absolutely have to be up on Thursday, not Wednesday. Fortunately, that won't make much of a difference. If that's alright. Three and bit reliable members is somewhat of a record anyway. Sadly, I'm not kidding.
Try harder next time.
Still, you're probably one of the only 2 people happy to see me back. Seriously, if you need a hand with anything draft-related, I'm here. I think I ran this one pretty damned well until The Incident.
Ok. So how about we finish off this draft with our shows this week and crown us a winner for this draft (short I know, and either me or you is going to win, since we're currently tied). Then we can start a new one with Sly running it (if he still wants to), as we already have us here four reliable people to participate, and I'm sure one or two other people might want in too.
Whatever we decide doesn't really bother me, I just think we'd be better off starting a new one since there's been so many bans/unreliable people in this one.

We should make a TV movie.
Best idea I've heard all day. And I heard an idea which involved an airborne karate kick earlier.
sigged, thanks mattmoses..
i've always been a fan of your shows it's really great your so vocal in your support of mine..
Papa Shango
Frontman of the WZ Band!!
Well, of course you're all for ending it early, you're in second place right now, with a great chance to take the lead this round. No, I say we finish what we've started. I'm trying to finish up this week's show as we speak, and I've already got my last two shows penciled in.
Tell you what, if someone takes a commanding lead this round, I'm cool with starting over. I've been a little frustrated not having my original roster anyway. Plus, if I'm lucky, I'll get a better spot in the draft table.
And don't let Sly run it. The last thing we need is for him to be right AGAIN.
Guys, i have a problem.
There has been an incident with my computer and i currently do not have it to hand (ie a hard copy), so I will try to post the basic results but i dont feel it will do the show justice. I can't even remember what matches i have except a couple.
What I am asking for is an extension until this time tomorrow. I can do that then maybe i can carry this on to a point where i may get a vote in this round!! I will be online for part of the afternoon and if Sam or whoever wants to say no, then i will take the DQ.
C-Dawg, if you want my roster, it is yours. I am not in a great position but i would like to offer it to you if everyone is OK with that. Circumstances do not permit to carry on with this I am afraid.

I am going to have to stop you there...
The draft started and finished weeks ago. There is no challenge to randomly picking 20 odd wrestlers and making them fit into a storyline. The challenge is making picks that people can beat you to, by constantly adapting and changing your planned picks.
So do not bother writing your show. Noone will pay the blindest bit of attention to it.
Next time, spend some time reading the thread and you might have realised that a tad earlier.
Sorry to be harsh but you are making yourself look silly.

Frontman of the WZ Band!!
Alright, well, I did as much as could with my free time. But seeing as I had finals Thursday through Monday, and moving Tuesday and Wednesday, I could only completely
finish five of my eight matches. So, here's what I managed to write.
UWE PRESENTS: SPRING SHOWDOWN
Hello, everyone, and welcome to Spring Showdown! I’m Papa Shango (no relation), here on commentary, and let me tell you, the atmosphere here tonight is electric, it’s contagious! We have a stacked line-up here tonight, so let’s not waste any more time here. Up first is the United States Championship Match!
Open Invitational Six Pack Challenge for the UWE United States Championship
Out first is the United States Champion, John “Bradshaw” Layfield. And fans, it was last week that JBL surprised the world by resurrecting the de-activated United Stated Championship, the title whose lineage goes back through the WWE, through WCW, and back to the old National Wrestling Alliance. And by bringing back this prestigious title, JBL aims to convince the world that he is a champion of legends. But Vince McMahon says, “Prove it,” and has set up this match. The rules are simple; five competitors have signed up to be in this match against JBL. All six wrestlers will be wresting actively at once. This is NOT elimination rules; the first superstar to get a pin fall or submission decision over another superstar will be the winner and walk away as the United States Champion. And it appears as if JBL will be joining the announcer’s booth for a minute.
“Let’s take a look at who had the audacity to challenge me, a wrestling god. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if they couldn’t even get five other men to sign up for this match.”
*My name is Finlay, and I love to fight!*
“Well JBL, it looks like there’s at least one man in the locker who’s not afraid to face you- the Fighting Irishman, Finlay!”
“I’ll hand it to Finlay; He is a fierce competitor. He loves to fight, he’s a natural brawler. But he also knows how to use shoot-style technical wrestling to his advantage, AND he knows a few submissions holds that, quite frankly, hurt a lot. But I’ve had Finlay’s number for a long time now, and he just doesn’t stand a chance in hell against me.”
*I spit in the face of people who don’t want to be cool.*
“Carlito?! Are you kidding me?! That fuzzy-haired punk has never beaten me in his life, and now he thinks he can just waltz on down here and take the belt away from me?”
“Well, JBL, remember, you don’t even have to be involved in the decision to lose your championship tonight, and perhaps that is what Carlito is thinking now.
And here’s most likely why. RIKISHI is making his way down to the ring.”
“Rikishi?! What is that fat tub o’ lard thinking? He can’t compete; he’s had the hell beaten out of him too much.”
“Well, that is true, John. As we all know, Rikishi has been suffering from what appears to be a serious injury to his ribs. He has them heavily taped. I’m not quite sure who is doctor is, but he has to be either negligent or insane to clear Rikishi to compete tonight. Then again, if I were his doctor, I’d probably be inclined to let the big man do whatever he wants.
Uh-oh, John, here comes trouble. Bobby Lashley is on his way down to the ring. And he has looked good recently, performing admirably in the battle royal, and he is at least partially responsible for Rikishi’s injuries. And, I think I should add that Lashley has a history of taking championships away from you, JBL.”
“Aw, shut up! Lashley has been nothing but a lucky punk his entire life. He doesn’t stand a chance against five men, especially seeing as one of those men is ME!”
*DAMN!*
“Oh, my God, look who it is! It’s your old tag team partner, John, Ron Simmons! And by the look on his face, he has no intention of ever forgiving you for leaving him high and dry against the Dudley Boyz, effectively ending the APA. Well, fans, for once, it appears as if JBL is speechless. He is in the ring now, staring down Ron Simmons.”
And the bell has rung, and Simmons goes DIRECTLY for JBL. JBL ducks to outside, but Simmons is right behind him, and they are now trading blows on the outside. Meanwhile, the other four men have started up against each other. Rikishi has Carlito in the corner, but Carlito throws a stiff shot to Rikishi’s ribs, and lives the big man winded. But LOOK OUT, here’s Finlay with a big back suplex on Carlito. Goes for the pin… 1… 2… no, Lashley breaks it up. He throws Finlay out of the ring and goes after Carlito by himself. Vertical suplex only gets a two count. Meanwhile, Finlay has met up with JBL and Ron Simmons on the outside. He’s a brawler, and he wants a piece of both men, but JBL and Simmons hit a double clothesline on Finlay! And now they’re right back at each other. Lashley picks up Carlito in a military press, but Rikishi hits a thrust kick on Lashley. Carlito falls right on top of Lashley, but Rikishi breaks it up at two. He throws Carlito outside and goes after Lashley. Elbow drop gets two. Leg Drop also gets two. JBL hits a neckbreaker on Simmons on the ramp and starts making way back towards the ring. But Finlay hits a dropkick on JBL’s knee. Finlay’s on the apron now, and he dives, Senton Bomb! Finlay rolls JBL into the ring, goes for the cover, but only gets two and a half! Carlito is back in the ring now, but he gets met by a big clothesline by Lashley. Finlay sneaks up on Lashley, rolls him up… 1… 2… no, Lashley kicks out! Ron Simmons is back in the ring, going after JBL, but JBL hits him with Big Boot, and Simmons falls to the outside. Finlay catches Carlito by surprise and hits the Celtic Cross!! Finlay turns around… and gets NAILED by the Clothesline From Hell!! Finlay rolls to the floor. Rikishi is up and scoop slams JBL. Rikishi is setting him up for a Banzai Drop now, but JBL rolls out of the way. Rikishi turns around to find JBL… and gets a SPEAR from Lashley. Lashley sees JBL getting up now, and goes to spear him too, but JBL moves out of the way, just as Simmons is getting back on the apron… and takes the spear from Lashley! JBL tosses Lashley to the outside, and goes to pin Rikishi. 1… 2… 3!! That’s it. JBL sees his opportunity and takes it, and he is still the United States Champion.
WINNER and STILL United States Champion, John “Bradshaw” Layfield! (10:52)
There is carnage everywhere. The only movement in the ring is JBL slinking out with his title, and Bobby Lashley, who can’t quite seem to believe what just transpired here. But, there’s no question, JBL is still the United States Champion.
Backstage, we see Tomko warming up for his match with Batista, when Christian Cage walks in.
“Hey, Tomko, man. I just wanted to wish ya luck with your match tonight. I want to be out there with ya, I really do. But I gotta ready for Ladder match with that Judas AJ Styles. I’m gonna get my Intercontinental Championship back, I guarantee it. And even though I can’t be out there with ya tonight, I’d really appreciate it if you’d come on out and be in my corner for my match.”
“What the hell makes you think I WANT to back you up tonight?! It’s your damn fault that Batista wants my blood in the first place. Besides, I got no opinion about the beef between you and AJ. If I’m bored, I MAY come out for the match. But for now, consider yourself on your own. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to get to the ring for my match.”
We now see Randy Orton in his locker room as he prepares for his UWE World Championship No Holds Barred match later tonight. He seems focused, determined, as he gives himself a pep talk in his mirror. I think Orton wants more than the title tonight; I think he wants Eddie Guerrero’s blood on his hands.
Batista vs. Tomko
As Tomko makes his way to ring, allow me to explain how all this came about. At Redemption, our last PPV, it was Batista vs. Christian Cage for the Intercontinental Championship. And Batista seemed to have the match won, when Tomko and AJ Styles interfered, effectively costing The Animal the title. In a No. 1 Contender’s battle royal, AJ Styles and Tomko were inserted to insure that Batista didn’t get another shot. During the match, AJ Styles washed his hands of Christian. But Tomko, after being eliminated by Batista, came back into the ring and eliminated Batista. Batista has since been unable to get his hands on Tomko, but tonight, he gets his chance.
And now the unmistakable music of The Animal has gotten the crowd on their feet. But where is Batista? There’s no sign of him. Wait, there he is, in the crowd! Batista storms the ring, getting the jump on Tomko, and this match has started with a bang! Batista’s getting some mounted punches in on Tomko, receding to a corner before the ref disqualifies him. As Tomko rises, Batista takes him down with a big-time shoulder block. More blows are traded between the two, before Tomko rolls out of the ring. But Batista won’t relent, and he goes outside the ring after him. But Tomko turns around and nails The Animal with a clothesline. After a few stomps to the head for good measure, Tomko lifts Batista, and drops him throat first on the barricade. Tomko then rams Batista’s back into the ring apron, and rolls him into the ring and goes for a pin. He gets a two count. He goes for an elbow drop, but Batista moves out of the way. He reverses Tomko’s Irish Whip attempt into the turnbuckle, and proceeds to hit a series of shoulder thrusts to the midsection of Tomko. After a series of traded blows and rest holds, Tomko hits a neckbreaker for a two count. Batista rises, dodges a clothesline, and hits a spear! 1… 2… NO! Tomko kicks out and starts to get back up. Batista looks to be going for another spear or body attack, but Tomko reverses it into a huge powerslam! Good Lord, the strength of Tomko! He’s lifting Batista onto his shoulders, and hits the torture rack backbreaker, but he can only get a 2 count again. Tomko is getting frustrated now. What’s this? He’s going to the top turnbuckle. He’s measuring up The Animal. Double Axe Handle- NO!! Batista catches Tomko in mid-air and uses Tomko’s own momentum against him, hitting a HUGE SPINEBUSTER!! That looked to put him out, but Batista wants to be sure. He’s signaling for the Batista Bomb… Tomko’s up… and DOWN. BATISTA BOMB!! 1… 2… 3! Batista wins in impressive fashion. Both men showed amazing feats of power and strength in that match, but in the end, The Animal comes out on top.
Winner- Batista (9:37)
Batista makes his way back up the ramp victorious. Tomko is looking hurt, yet angry. I think he may want more of Batista. But for now, it looks like he’ll have to deal with a loss on his record.
Vince McMahon is watching the show from inside his office. He seems genuinely impressed with Batista’s victory. And Triple H comes barging in.
“Ah, Hunter. Did you see that last match? Now that’s what I call impressive. The way Batista took his opportunity, then insured his victory with that power bomb for good measure. You want that No. 1 contender’s spot? You’ll need an even more competitive yet decisive victory over Rey Mysterio.”
“Well, you see Vince, that’s kinda why I came here. I was hoping to convince you last minute to make the match a No. 1 Contender’s match. But, it appears you’ve got your mind set on different ideas. And I know better than to try to change your mind. So, I guess really the only other thing I have to say is, that I hope someone tells Rey Mysterio to be careful on his way to the ring. Someone may try to harm him… or already has.”
Triple H leaves the office. After a moment, Vince picks up the phone.
“I need someone to find Rey Mysterio, now.”
MNM vs. The Dudley Boyz- Tables Match for the UWE Tag Team Championships
Here comes UWE’s newest tag team, John Morrison and Joey Mercury, also known as MNM. And frankly fans, I don’t like these two one bit. They’re cocky, arrogant, egotistical, cheaters. Now, the Dudleys may be abrasive, but they care for the business and the fans. MNM are in it for themselves, and have no respect for anyone else. To be honest, I’m kind of glad that Vince McMahon changed this match to a Tables Match. Even if MNM walk out of here with the tag team titles, there’s a good chance that this hardcore battle will be bloody enough to humble them.
And here come the Dudley Boyz, with a few extra tables in tow. I guess they didn’t trust the officials to provide them as many as they’d prefer.
This match is being contested under “one fall” rules. In order for the elimination to count, a team has to be directly responsible for their opponent going through the table.
MNM is meeting the Dudleys on the outside! This match is starting outside the ring! The Dudleys manage to take down Morrison and isolate Mercury inside the ring. They hit a double suplex, followed by a double elbow drop. Morrison is back inside now, and hits a roundhouse kick on D-Von. Bubba Ray quickly takes down Morrison with some punches, and then hits an elbow drop. D-Von is back in and hits a rolling elbow smash on Morrison. Mercury back in with a Kendo stick! A few shots to each of the Dudleys, and then a neck breaker on Bubba. MNM then hits simultaneous leg drops on Bubba. Uh-oh, D-Von looks to be bringing a table in the ring… oh! MNM with a double baseball slide, smashing D-Von in the face with the table! MNM rolls out of the ring and sets up a table on the outside. Bubba Ray has the Kendo stick now, and hits Morrison and Mercury with a couple shots, and then rolls Morrison into the ring. D- Von suplexes Mercury on the outside. Bubba Ray picks up Morrison and drops him with a body slam, then grabs the legs. D-Von up top… WASSUP!! Diving head butt! Ouch, that’s gotta hurt. Probably not gonna be many baby Morrisons running around any time soon. Morrison’s down, Mercury’s down. Bubba shove’s D-Von.
“D-VON!!”
“WHAT?”
“… GET THE TABLES!!”
Look out MNM it’s table time! Bubba Ray and D-Von grab a pair of tables and bring them in the ring. Bubba sets up one table in the corner, while Joey Mercury gets the other table in his gut. Meanwhile, Morrison has snuck up on Bubba Ray and kicks him in the back of the knee, then smashes his head into the table. Morrison and D-Von face off in the middle of the ring, trading blows, before D-Von gains the upper hand with strong knee strike. But Mercury gets behind D-Von and hits a big reverse DDT. MNM then sets up Bubba Ray against the table. Assisted Irish Whip… Mercury leaps toward Bubba, who MOVES OUT OF THE WAY!! Mercury just launched himself into the table! Bubba Ray hits Morrison with one hard elbow and then drops him with a back suplex. Bubba Ray starts setting up the second table. He grabs Morrison. He’s setting him up for a Power Bomb. No, Morrison floats over Bubba Ray and hits a strong neck breaker. D-Von is starting to rise now. Morrison measuring him up, and NAILS a huge running enziguri! John now goes over to Mercury, and starts to get him up. Both Dudleys are pretty big men, it’ll probably take both Morrison and Mercury to put either through a table. But Bubba Ray is back up, and Morrison doesn’t notice. Bubba Ray grabs Morrison… BUBBA BOMB!! What a devastating maneuver. Mercury has rolled out of the ring, but LOOK OUT! D-Von is right there. He hits him hit a few right hands, and tosses him back in the ring, where Bubba Ray is waiting with Kendo stick. After a few shots the back, Bubba Ray sets Mercury up on his shoulders. D-Von gets up top on the turnbuckle. They’re looking to end it here, with the Dudleyville Device. But Mercury counters Bubba into a victory roll, and D-Von crashes through the table. A dropkick to the face incapacitates Bubba Ray, and John Morrison hits a running shooting star press. Mercury is on the outside getting another table and slides it into the ring. But Bubba Ray is starting to rise. Morrison bounds off the ropes, but Bubba counters. Back body drop OVER the top rope. And CRASHES through the table MNM had set up outside. Mercury has a chair now as well. He goes to hit Bubba Ray with it… Bubba ducks… and Mercury hits the referee instead! Mercury turns around and gets nailed with a sidekick! The Dudleys set up the new table. Both Mercury and Morrison are dazed. Bubba Ray picks up Mercury. He’s still out of it, there’s not much he can do. Irish Whip… Mercury is up… 3D!! 3D THROUGH THE TABLE!! That’s it, the Dudleys win the match. Wait a minute… the bell hasn’t rung. Oh, no, the official is still down! The Dudleys are trying to get him up to call the finish, but it’s no use. He’s still out. Wait, look out! Morrison’s back in and he’s got the chair. He hits D-Von in the back, and as Bubba turns around, he gets a chair shot to the skull. Morrison delivers another shot to D-Von, then checks on the referee. Looks like he’s still out. Morrison goes to Mercury and helps him up. Mercury looks like he’s in pretty bad shape still, but he’s standing. Morrison goes to get D-Von and kicks Bubba Ray out of the ring. Morrison and Mercury signal for the finish… they lift D-Von up… SNAPSHOT ON THE CHAIR!! The ref is coming to now. Morrison drags D-Von over to the wreckage of the table from the 3D. Oh, no, there’s no way… the ref sees MNM, sees D-Von on the remains of the table, and HE’S CALLING FOR THE BELL?!
Winners and NEW UWE Tag Team Champions- MNM (18:12)
Oh, this is unbelievable! MNM have stolen the win and the titles from the Dudley Boyz. Well, they better run and hide, because once the ref and the Dudleys see they were all hoodwinked, there will be to pay, and it will be paid in blood, the blood of John Morrison and Joey Mercury.
Backstage, we see Trish Stratus making her to the ring. Her match with Mickie James is next, and it is for the UWE Women’s Championship.
Tomko is seen leaving the medics’ station with an ice pack. He walks along until who should he bump into but the Intercontinental Champion, “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles. Tomko is clearly irritated.
“Alright, look, AJ, Christian has already been around asking for me to be in his corner tonight, and I’m gonna tell you the same thing I told him-“
“Save it, Tomko. I already know what you and Cage said earlier. You were being filmed. You honestly didn’t realize that. Look we’re even being filmed now. There’s the camera, right there. I’m just here to tell ya that I don’t care if you pick a side. I don’t care if show up at ringside. I don’t care if you go play cheerleader in Christian’s corner. But just know that if you get physically involved in MY match, if you put a harmful hand on me or a helpful one on Cage, if you step foot in the ring, hell if you even get up on the apron… I will make you regret it.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“No, I’m promising you. The beatdown you will receive at my hands will be simply… phenomenal.”
And Styles walks off, leaving Tomko to fume over the warning he received.
Mickie James is making her way out for the Women’s Championship Match.
UWE Women’s Championship Match- Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus
Well fans, as you know, it was at Awakening that Trish Stratus defeated Mickie James to be crowned the UWE Women’s Champion. They then were faced with a common enemy, in the form of ODB and Angelina Love. After defeating them in a tag team match at Redemption, Mickie turned on Trish, making it clear her intention to further pursue the Women’s title. Trish Stratus agreed to a match, and that match will take place right now.
Trish Stratus is in the ring now, and this contest is under way. The two ladies lock up, and Trish backs Mickie James into the corner. The referee calls for the clean break. Trish backs up, then clocks Mickie with a hard forearm. Mickie makes her way to the center of the ring, but gets taken down by a snapmare, followed by a hard kick to the back and surfboard stretch. Trish is really applying a lot of pressure to Mickie’s back. Mickie finally get to ropes, and Trish is forced to relinquish the hold. The ladies goes for another lock-up, but this time, Mickie James feints and hits a knee to Trish’s midsection. Ow, and then a toss by the hair. The ref issues a warning about the hair, but Mickie James is too busy stomping on Trish to listen. Trish is back up, double leg takedown, and starts punching Mickie James. Mickie is in the corner, Trish with some HARD chest slaps. Small package gets a two count. Mickie connects with a few shots, then Irish Whips Trish. But Trish counters… Air Stratus. The Lou Thesz press takes down Mickie James. Mickie James gets up and gets nailed with hard back kick. 1… 2… Mickie James kicks out. Mickie gets up, goes to clothesline… MaTrish evasion… MaTrish Reloaded! Trish grabs Mickie with her legs and hits a whirlybird headscissors takedown. Pin attempt gets two. Trish goes to the top turnbuckle… Flying crossbody! But Mickie rolls through. 1… 2… NO, Trish kicks out. Mickie with more kicks and then a jackknife pin. Trish bridges out and up, then counters with a neckbreaker. Both women get up at the same time, and then clothesline each other. Both women are down, and the ref begins to count. But by 8, both women are back up. Mickie James jumps up, and nails a beautiful hurricanrana. Grabs the leg… 1… 2… no, Trish kicks out. Mickie with a dropkick, sends Trish to the corner. Trish and Mickie go to the top turnbuckle. Mickie-canrana! Mickie goes for the cover. 1… 2… no, Trish kicks out at two-and-a-half! Trish stands. Mickie is measuring Trish and goes for the Mick Kick… No, Trish dodges it! Mickie bounds off the ropes, but Trish reverses and nails a big spinebuster. Trish is waiting now, measuring Mickie for a finish. She sets up Mickie… Stratusfaction!! Pin cover! 1… 2… NO! Another near-fall! It looked like Mickie may not have gotten her shoulder up in time. Trish gets up to double-check the decision with the ref, but Mickie rolls up Trish with a schoolgirl. She’s got the pants, and the feet on the ropes. 1… 2… 3!!! Mickie wins the match and the Women’s title!
Winner and NEW UWE Women’s Championship- Mickie James (11:38)
Mickie celebrates her big win and makes her back up the ramp, with Trish looking on incredulously. Mickie has taken Trish’s prized championship. But I doubt Trish will allow Mickie to celebrate for long. Considering such a controversial finish, I bet we’ll see these two face each again.
We see Vince in his office once more, pacing this time. Rey Mysterio walks in.
“I hear you wanted to see me, Mr. McMahon?”
“Ah, Rey, there you are. No, I just wanted to make sure you were prepared for your match tonight. Make sure you were 100%.”
“I’m fine, Vince. I’m all set. No injuries. No nerves. I’m gonna go out there and prove myself to be No. 1 contender once again.”
“I figured as much. It’s just that damn Triple H playing mind games. Well, Rey, good luck out there. You better get out there. Your match is next.”
Rey Mysterio exits the office, and starts to make his way out the ring. But Triple H attacks him in the hallway. He throws Rey into the wall. He starts dragging Rey along and onto the entrance ramp. Triple H throws Rey Mysterio down the ramp to the foot of the apron. After bouncing his head off the apron, Triple H throws Mysterio into the steel steps. He’s reaching under the ring now… oh no, it’s the sledgehammer! Triple H delivers a devastating blow to the midsection with his prized equalizer. He brings Mysterio into the ring and orders that the bell be rung to start the match. The referee relunctantly begins the match.
Triple H vs. Rey Mysterio
Triple H sets Rey up for the Pedigree, but Rey miraculous counters into a pinning maneuver. Triple H almost immediately kicks out, but is quite surprised that Rey is showing signs of a fight in him still. But the sledgehammer shot has clearly taken its toll. Rey is holding his ribs and crawling into a corner. Trips is mocking Rey now, slapping him around the head and neck, while Rey tries to cover up. Triple H is now on his knees in the middle of the ring, daring Rey to try and get a shot in on him. Rey lifts himself up in the corner, then with a surprising burst of speed, darts out and dropkicks Triple H right in the face! Trips tries to recover quickly, but Rey is all over him now, delivering a flurry of kicks to the back and legs. Triple H is finally back up, but Mysterio is off the ropes and hits a dropkick to the knee. This takes Trips down for a sec, enough for Rey to get in another dropkick, this time to the head. As Triple H rises, Rey springboards off the ropes, but flies RIGHT into a big clothesline! Triple H does not look pleased at all. He clearly thought he was going to have it easy after that pre-match assault. After some mounted punches, Triple H applies a strong abdominal wrench hold on Rey, and you can see how painful it is. Right now, the injury sustained by the sledgehammer is clearly a bad one. Rey is nearly screaming in pain. After awhile, Rey manages to get an arm around the ropes for an automatic break. Rey Mysterio is bad shape. He goes for a hard kick, but HHH anticipated it and reversed it into an Atomic Drop. HHH Irish whips Mysterio, runs to the opposite ropes, hits the BIG KNEE to the face. Pin attempt gets two. Triple H picks up Rey, and goes to scoop slam him, but Mysterio slides out of it and jumps on Triple H’s shoulders, and performs a victory roll, which gets a two-count. As Triple H gets up, Mysterio hits an impressive spinning headscissors, taking HHH down once again. Mysterio gets on the apron, and springboards, landing a nice seated senton. 1… 2… and a kick-out by Triple H. Mysterio tries for the senton again, but this time Triple H counters with a vicious powerbomb!! 1… 2… NO!! Mysterio kicks out at two-and-a-half!! Triple H hits a hard knee drop and goes for another pin, which gets another two count. As Mysterio rises, Triple H lunges off the ropes, but Mysterio hits a drop toehold, and Triple H is in position for the 619!! And Mysterio connects. Triple is down, and Mysterio springboards… Droppin’ the Dime!! Cover… 1… 2… NO!! Triple H gets a shoulder up and two-and-a-half!! Mysterio bounds off the ropes again, but Triple H reverses into a BIG spinebuster!! HHH is calling for the finish. He sets Mysterio up for the Pedigree, but Mysterio counters. He’s up on HHH’s shoulders… WEST COAST POP!! HHH lands right on his head. Mysterio grabs the legs… 1… 2… 3!! That’s it!! Mysterio with the upset!! He wins!
Winner- Rey Mysterio (13:39)
Well, Mysterio went there wanting to impress Mr. McMahon, to prove that he deserves another shot at the World Title. And after that impressive underdog win, he may very well have done exactly that. And HHH is livid. His championship dreams seem to have been spoiled once again. Who knows what lengths he’ll go to get another chance?
Unfortunately, this is as much as I could do this week. Like I said, moving was hectic for me these last fews days. So I’ll sum up the other results as best as I can.
AJ Styles d. Christian Cage in the Ladder Match to retain the IC Championship. Tomko sided with Cage, and at one point even pushed over Styles’ ladder. But later interference was botched, as Tomko accidentally hit Cage with the Big Boot, then got a ladder to the face. Styles then hit the Styles Clash on Cage and climbed the ladder to retrieve the title belt.
Umaga d. The Rock. Umaga accidentally hit the referee, and then received a Rock Bottom. Armando Estrada tried to interfere but got a Rock Bottom as well. But while The Rock was busy with Estrada, Triple H snuck down to the ring, and then hit The Rock with a sledgehammer, and then the Pedigree, dragged Umaga over The Rock, and then got the ref up, who counted the pin.
Randy Orton d. Eddie Guerrero in the No Holds Barred Match to win the UWE Championship. After a long, bloody battle that went over a half an hour and included the use of chairs, garbage cans, barbed wire baseball bats, thumbtacks, a fire extinguisher, and the announcer's table, Eddie Guerrero looked to have the match in hand. But Randy Orton rolled out of the way of a Frog Splash on the outside, and then hit an RKO on Eddie Guerrero’s low rider.
Hope you enjoyed the show. And I promise, my next show, Collision, will have complete results and match re-caps. I may choose to write in a shorter format of re-cap, though.
finish five of my eight matches. So, here's what I managed to write.
UWE PRESENTS: SPRING SHOWDOWN
Hello, everyone, and welcome to Spring Showdown! I’m Papa Shango (no relation), here on commentary, and let me tell you, the atmosphere here tonight is electric, it’s contagious! We have a stacked line-up here tonight, so let’s not waste any more time here. Up first is the United States Championship Match!
Open Invitational Six Pack Challenge for the UWE United States Championship
Out first is the United States Champion, John “Bradshaw” Layfield. And fans, it was last week that JBL surprised the world by resurrecting the de-activated United Stated Championship, the title whose lineage goes back through the WWE, through WCW, and back to the old National Wrestling Alliance. And by bringing back this prestigious title, JBL aims to convince the world that he is a champion of legends. But Vince McMahon says, “Prove it,” and has set up this match. The rules are simple; five competitors have signed up to be in this match against JBL. All six wrestlers will be wresting actively at once. This is NOT elimination rules; the first superstar to get a pin fall or submission decision over another superstar will be the winner and walk away as the United States Champion. And it appears as if JBL will be joining the announcer’s booth for a minute.
“Let’s take a look at who had the audacity to challenge me, a wrestling god. Heck, I wouldn’t be surprised if they couldn’t even get five other men to sign up for this match.”
*My name is Finlay, and I love to fight!*
“Well JBL, it looks like there’s at least one man in the locker who’s not afraid to face you- the Fighting Irishman, Finlay!”
“I’ll hand it to Finlay; He is a fierce competitor. He loves to fight, he’s a natural brawler. But he also knows how to use shoot-style technical wrestling to his advantage, AND he knows a few submissions holds that, quite frankly, hurt a lot. But I’ve had Finlay’s number for a long time now, and he just doesn’t stand a chance in hell against me.”
*I spit in the face of people who don’t want to be cool.*
“Carlito?! Are you kidding me?! That fuzzy-haired punk has never beaten me in his life, and now he thinks he can just waltz on down here and take the belt away from me?”
“Well, JBL, remember, you don’t even have to be involved in the decision to lose your championship tonight, and perhaps that is what Carlito is thinking now.
And here’s most likely why. RIKISHI is making his way down to the ring.”
“Rikishi?! What is that fat tub o’ lard thinking? He can’t compete; he’s had the hell beaten out of him too much.”
“Well, that is true, John. As we all know, Rikishi has been suffering from what appears to be a serious injury to his ribs. He has them heavily taped. I’m not quite sure who is doctor is, but he has to be either negligent or insane to clear Rikishi to compete tonight. Then again, if I were his doctor, I’d probably be inclined to let the big man do whatever he wants.
Uh-oh, John, here comes trouble. Bobby Lashley is on his way down to the ring. And he has looked good recently, performing admirably in the battle royal, and he is at least partially responsible for Rikishi’s injuries. And, I think I should add that Lashley has a history of taking championships away from you, JBL.”
“Aw, shut up! Lashley has been nothing but a lucky punk his entire life. He doesn’t stand a chance against five men, especially seeing as one of those men is ME!”
*DAMN!*
“Oh, my God, look who it is! It’s your old tag team partner, John, Ron Simmons! And by the look on his face, he has no intention of ever forgiving you for leaving him high and dry against the Dudley Boyz, effectively ending the APA. Well, fans, for once, it appears as if JBL is speechless. He is in the ring now, staring down Ron Simmons.”
And the bell has rung, and Simmons goes DIRECTLY for JBL. JBL ducks to outside, but Simmons is right behind him, and they are now trading blows on the outside. Meanwhile, the other four men have started up against each other. Rikishi has Carlito in the corner, but Carlito throws a stiff shot to Rikishi’s ribs, and lives the big man winded. But LOOK OUT, here’s Finlay with a big back suplex on Carlito. Goes for the pin… 1… 2… no, Lashley breaks it up. He throws Finlay out of the ring and goes after Carlito by himself. Vertical suplex only gets a two count. Meanwhile, Finlay has met up with JBL and Ron Simmons on the outside. He’s a brawler, and he wants a piece of both men, but JBL and Simmons hit a double clothesline on Finlay! And now they’re right back at each other. Lashley picks up Carlito in a military press, but Rikishi hits a thrust kick on Lashley. Carlito falls right on top of Lashley, but Rikishi breaks it up at two. He throws Carlito outside and goes after Lashley. Elbow drop gets two. Leg Drop also gets two. JBL hits a neckbreaker on Simmons on the ramp and starts making way back towards the ring. But Finlay hits a dropkick on JBL’s knee. Finlay’s on the apron now, and he dives, Senton Bomb! Finlay rolls JBL into the ring, goes for the cover, but only gets two and a half! Carlito is back in the ring now, but he gets met by a big clothesline by Lashley. Finlay sneaks up on Lashley, rolls him up… 1… 2… no, Lashley kicks out! Ron Simmons is back in the ring, going after JBL, but JBL hits him with Big Boot, and Simmons falls to the outside. Finlay catches Carlito by surprise and hits the Celtic Cross!! Finlay turns around… and gets NAILED by the Clothesline From Hell!! Finlay rolls to the floor. Rikishi is up and scoop slams JBL. Rikishi is setting him up for a Banzai Drop now, but JBL rolls out of the way. Rikishi turns around to find JBL… and gets a SPEAR from Lashley. Lashley sees JBL getting up now, and goes to spear him too, but JBL moves out of the way, just as Simmons is getting back on the apron… and takes the spear from Lashley! JBL tosses Lashley to the outside, and goes to pin Rikishi. 1… 2… 3!! That’s it. JBL sees his opportunity and takes it, and he is still the United States Champion.
WINNER and STILL United States Champion, John “Bradshaw” Layfield! (10:52)
There is carnage everywhere. The only movement in the ring is JBL slinking out with his title, and Bobby Lashley, who can’t quite seem to believe what just transpired here. But, there’s no question, JBL is still the United States Champion.
Backstage, we see Tomko warming up for his match with Batista, when Christian Cage walks in.
“Hey, Tomko, man. I just wanted to wish ya luck with your match tonight. I want to be out there with ya, I really do. But I gotta ready for Ladder match with that Judas AJ Styles. I’m gonna get my Intercontinental Championship back, I guarantee it. And even though I can’t be out there with ya tonight, I’d really appreciate it if you’d come on out and be in my corner for my match.”
“What the hell makes you think I WANT to back you up tonight?! It’s your damn fault that Batista wants my blood in the first place. Besides, I got no opinion about the beef between you and AJ. If I’m bored, I MAY come out for the match. But for now, consider yourself on your own. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to get to the ring for my match.”
We now see Randy Orton in his locker room as he prepares for his UWE World Championship No Holds Barred match later tonight. He seems focused, determined, as he gives himself a pep talk in his mirror. I think Orton wants more than the title tonight; I think he wants Eddie Guerrero’s blood on his hands.
Batista vs. Tomko
As Tomko makes his way to ring, allow me to explain how all this came about. At Redemption, our last PPV, it was Batista vs. Christian Cage for the Intercontinental Championship. And Batista seemed to have the match won, when Tomko and AJ Styles interfered, effectively costing The Animal the title. In a No. 1 Contender’s battle royal, AJ Styles and Tomko were inserted to insure that Batista didn’t get another shot. During the match, AJ Styles washed his hands of Christian. But Tomko, after being eliminated by Batista, came back into the ring and eliminated Batista. Batista has since been unable to get his hands on Tomko, but tonight, he gets his chance.
And now the unmistakable music of The Animal has gotten the crowd on their feet. But where is Batista? There’s no sign of him. Wait, there he is, in the crowd! Batista storms the ring, getting the jump on Tomko, and this match has started with a bang! Batista’s getting some mounted punches in on Tomko, receding to a corner before the ref disqualifies him. As Tomko rises, Batista takes him down with a big-time shoulder block. More blows are traded between the two, before Tomko rolls out of the ring. But Batista won’t relent, and he goes outside the ring after him. But Tomko turns around and nails The Animal with a clothesline. After a few stomps to the head for good measure, Tomko lifts Batista, and drops him throat first on the barricade. Tomko then rams Batista’s back into the ring apron, and rolls him into the ring and goes for a pin. He gets a two count. He goes for an elbow drop, but Batista moves out of the way. He reverses Tomko’s Irish Whip attempt into the turnbuckle, and proceeds to hit a series of shoulder thrusts to the midsection of Tomko. After a series of traded blows and rest holds, Tomko hits a neckbreaker for a two count. Batista rises, dodges a clothesline, and hits a spear! 1… 2… NO! Tomko kicks out and starts to get back up. Batista looks to be going for another spear or body attack, but Tomko reverses it into a huge powerslam! Good Lord, the strength of Tomko! He’s lifting Batista onto his shoulders, and hits the torture rack backbreaker, but he can only get a 2 count again. Tomko is getting frustrated now. What’s this? He’s going to the top turnbuckle. He’s measuring up The Animal. Double Axe Handle- NO!! Batista catches Tomko in mid-air and uses Tomko’s own momentum against him, hitting a HUGE SPINEBUSTER!! That looked to put him out, but Batista wants to be sure. He’s signaling for the Batista Bomb… Tomko’s up… and DOWN. BATISTA BOMB!! 1… 2… 3! Batista wins in impressive fashion. Both men showed amazing feats of power and strength in that match, but in the end, The Animal comes out on top.
Winner- Batista (9:37)
Batista makes his way back up the ramp victorious. Tomko is looking hurt, yet angry. I think he may want more of Batista. But for now, it looks like he’ll have to deal with a loss on his record.
Vince McMahon is watching the show from inside his office. He seems genuinely impressed with Batista’s victory. And Triple H comes barging in.
“Ah, Hunter. Did you see that last match? Now that’s what I call impressive. The way Batista took his opportunity, then insured his victory with that power bomb for good measure. You want that No. 1 contender’s spot? You’ll need an even more competitive yet decisive victory over Rey Mysterio.”
“Well, you see Vince, that’s kinda why I came here. I was hoping to convince you last minute to make the match a No. 1 Contender’s match. But, it appears you’ve got your mind set on different ideas. And I know better than to try to change your mind. So, I guess really the only other thing I have to say is, that I hope someone tells Rey Mysterio to be careful on his way to the ring. Someone may try to harm him… or already has.”
Triple H leaves the office. After a moment, Vince picks up the phone.
“I need someone to find Rey Mysterio, now.”
MNM vs. The Dudley Boyz- Tables Match for the UWE Tag Team Championships
Here comes UWE’s newest tag team, John Morrison and Joey Mercury, also known as MNM. And frankly fans, I don’t like these two one bit. They’re cocky, arrogant, egotistical, cheaters. Now, the Dudleys may be abrasive, but they care for the business and the fans. MNM are in it for themselves, and have no respect for anyone else. To be honest, I’m kind of glad that Vince McMahon changed this match to a Tables Match. Even if MNM walk out of here with the tag team titles, there’s a good chance that this hardcore battle will be bloody enough to humble them.
And here come the Dudley Boyz, with a few extra tables in tow. I guess they didn’t trust the officials to provide them as many as they’d prefer.
This match is being contested under “one fall” rules. In order for the elimination to count, a team has to be directly responsible for their opponent going through the table.
MNM is meeting the Dudleys on the outside! This match is starting outside the ring! The Dudleys manage to take down Morrison and isolate Mercury inside the ring. They hit a double suplex, followed by a double elbow drop. Morrison is back inside now, and hits a roundhouse kick on D-Von. Bubba Ray quickly takes down Morrison with some punches, and then hits an elbow drop. D-Von is back in and hits a rolling elbow smash on Morrison. Mercury back in with a Kendo stick! A few shots to each of the Dudleys, and then a neck breaker on Bubba. MNM then hits simultaneous leg drops on Bubba. Uh-oh, D-Von looks to be bringing a table in the ring… oh! MNM with a double baseball slide, smashing D-Von in the face with the table! MNM rolls out of the ring and sets up a table on the outside. Bubba Ray has the Kendo stick now, and hits Morrison and Mercury with a couple shots, and then rolls Morrison into the ring. D- Von suplexes Mercury on the outside. Bubba Ray picks up Morrison and drops him with a body slam, then grabs the legs. D-Von up top… WASSUP!! Diving head butt! Ouch, that’s gotta hurt. Probably not gonna be many baby Morrisons running around any time soon. Morrison’s down, Mercury’s down. Bubba shove’s D-Von.
“D-VON!!”
“WHAT?”
“… GET THE TABLES!!”
Look out MNM it’s table time! Bubba Ray and D-Von grab a pair of tables and bring them in the ring. Bubba sets up one table in the corner, while Joey Mercury gets the other table in his gut. Meanwhile, Morrison has snuck up on Bubba Ray and kicks him in the back of the knee, then smashes his head into the table. Morrison and D-Von face off in the middle of the ring, trading blows, before D-Von gains the upper hand with strong knee strike. But Mercury gets behind D-Von and hits a big reverse DDT. MNM then sets up Bubba Ray against the table. Assisted Irish Whip… Mercury leaps toward Bubba, who MOVES OUT OF THE WAY!! Mercury just launched himself into the table! Bubba Ray hits Morrison with one hard elbow and then drops him with a back suplex. Bubba Ray starts setting up the second table. He grabs Morrison. He’s setting him up for a Power Bomb. No, Morrison floats over Bubba Ray and hits a strong neck breaker. D-Von is starting to rise now. Morrison measuring him up, and NAILS a huge running enziguri! John now goes over to Mercury, and starts to get him up. Both Dudleys are pretty big men, it’ll probably take both Morrison and Mercury to put either through a table. But Bubba Ray is back up, and Morrison doesn’t notice. Bubba Ray grabs Morrison… BUBBA BOMB!! What a devastating maneuver. Mercury has rolled out of the ring, but LOOK OUT! D-Von is right there. He hits him hit a few right hands, and tosses him back in the ring, where Bubba Ray is waiting with Kendo stick. After a few shots the back, Bubba Ray sets Mercury up on his shoulders. D-Von gets up top on the turnbuckle. They’re looking to end it here, with the Dudleyville Device. But Mercury counters Bubba into a victory roll, and D-Von crashes through the table. A dropkick to the face incapacitates Bubba Ray, and John Morrison hits a running shooting star press. Mercury is on the outside getting another table and slides it into the ring. But Bubba Ray is starting to rise. Morrison bounds off the ropes, but Bubba counters. Back body drop OVER the top rope. And CRASHES through the table MNM had set up outside. Mercury has a chair now as well. He goes to hit Bubba Ray with it… Bubba ducks… and Mercury hits the referee instead! Mercury turns around and gets nailed with a sidekick! The Dudleys set up the new table. Both Mercury and Morrison are dazed. Bubba Ray picks up Mercury. He’s still out of it, there’s not much he can do. Irish Whip… Mercury is up… 3D!! 3D THROUGH THE TABLE!! That’s it, the Dudleys win the match. Wait a minute… the bell hasn’t rung. Oh, no, the official is still down! The Dudleys are trying to get him up to call the finish, but it’s no use. He’s still out. Wait, look out! Morrison’s back in and he’s got the chair. He hits D-Von in the back, and as Bubba turns around, he gets a chair shot to the skull. Morrison delivers another shot to D-Von, then checks on the referee. Looks like he’s still out. Morrison goes to Mercury and helps him up. Mercury looks like he’s in pretty bad shape still, but he’s standing. Morrison goes to get D-Von and kicks Bubba Ray out of the ring. Morrison and Mercury signal for the finish… they lift D-Von up… SNAPSHOT ON THE CHAIR!! The ref is coming to now. Morrison drags D-Von over to the wreckage of the table from the 3D. Oh, no, there’s no way… the ref sees MNM, sees D-Von on the remains of the table, and HE’S CALLING FOR THE BELL?!
Winners and NEW UWE Tag Team Champions- MNM (18:12)
Oh, this is unbelievable! MNM have stolen the win and the titles from the Dudley Boyz. Well, they better run and hide, because once the ref and the Dudleys see they were all hoodwinked, there will be to pay, and it will be paid in blood, the blood of John Morrison and Joey Mercury.
Backstage, we see Trish Stratus making her to the ring. Her match with Mickie James is next, and it is for the UWE Women’s Championship.
Tomko is seen leaving the medics’ station with an ice pack. He walks along until who should he bump into but the Intercontinental Champion, “The Phenomenal” AJ Styles. Tomko is clearly irritated.
“Alright, look, AJ, Christian has already been around asking for me to be in his corner tonight, and I’m gonna tell you the same thing I told him-“
“Save it, Tomko. I already know what you and Cage said earlier. You were being filmed. You honestly didn’t realize that. Look we’re even being filmed now. There’s the camera, right there. I’m just here to tell ya that I don’t care if you pick a side. I don’t care if show up at ringside. I don’t care if you go play cheerleader in Christian’s corner. But just know that if you get physically involved in MY match, if you put a harmful hand on me or a helpful one on Cage, if you step foot in the ring, hell if you even get up on the apron… I will make you regret it.”
“Are you threatening me?”
“No, I’m promising you. The beatdown you will receive at my hands will be simply… phenomenal.”
And Styles walks off, leaving Tomko to fume over the warning he received.
Mickie James is making her way out for the Women’s Championship Match.
UWE Women’s Championship Match- Mickie James vs. Trish Stratus
Well fans, as you know, it was at Awakening that Trish Stratus defeated Mickie James to be crowned the UWE Women’s Champion. They then were faced with a common enemy, in the form of ODB and Angelina Love. After defeating them in a tag team match at Redemption, Mickie turned on Trish, making it clear her intention to further pursue the Women’s title. Trish Stratus agreed to a match, and that match will take place right now.
Trish Stratus is in the ring now, and this contest is under way. The two ladies lock up, and Trish backs Mickie James into the corner. The referee calls for the clean break. Trish backs up, then clocks Mickie with a hard forearm. Mickie makes her way to the center of the ring, but gets taken down by a snapmare, followed by a hard kick to the back and surfboard stretch. Trish is really applying a lot of pressure to Mickie’s back. Mickie finally get to ropes, and Trish is forced to relinquish the hold. The ladies goes for another lock-up, but this time, Mickie James feints and hits a knee to Trish’s midsection. Ow, and then a toss by the hair. The ref issues a warning about the hair, but Mickie James is too busy stomping on Trish to listen. Trish is back up, double leg takedown, and starts punching Mickie James. Mickie is in the corner, Trish with some HARD chest slaps. Small package gets a two count. Mickie connects with a few shots, then Irish Whips Trish. But Trish counters… Air Stratus. The Lou Thesz press takes down Mickie James. Mickie James gets up and gets nailed with hard back kick. 1… 2… Mickie James kicks out. Mickie gets up, goes to clothesline… MaTrish evasion… MaTrish Reloaded! Trish grabs Mickie with her legs and hits a whirlybird headscissors takedown. Pin attempt gets two. Trish goes to the top turnbuckle… Flying crossbody! But Mickie rolls through. 1… 2… NO, Trish kicks out. Mickie with more kicks and then a jackknife pin. Trish bridges out and up, then counters with a neckbreaker. Both women get up at the same time, and then clothesline each other. Both women are down, and the ref begins to count. But by 8, both women are back up. Mickie James jumps up, and nails a beautiful hurricanrana. Grabs the leg… 1… 2… no, Trish kicks out. Mickie with a dropkick, sends Trish to the corner. Trish and Mickie go to the top turnbuckle. Mickie-canrana! Mickie goes for the cover. 1… 2… no, Trish kicks out at two-and-a-half! Trish stands. Mickie is measuring Trish and goes for the Mick Kick… No, Trish dodges it! Mickie bounds off the ropes, but Trish reverses and nails a big spinebuster. Trish is waiting now, measuring Mickie for a finish. She sets up Mickie… Stratusfaction!! Pin cover! 1… 2… NO! Another near-fall! It looked like Mickie may not have gotten her shoulder up in time. Trish gets up to double-check the decision with the ref, but Mickie rolls up Trish with a schoolgirl. She’s got the pants, and the feet on the ropes. 1… 2… 3!!! Mickie wins the match and the Women’s title!
Winner and NEW UWE Women’s Championship- Mickie James (11:38)
Mickie celebrates her big win and makes her back up the ramp, with Trish looking on incredulously. Mickie has taken Trish’s prized championship. But I doubt Trish will allow Mickie to celebrate for long. Considering such a controversial finish, I bet we’ll see these two face each again.
We see Vince in his office once more, pacing this time. Rey Mysterio walks in.
“I hear you wanted to see me, Mr. McMahon?”
“Ah, Rey, there you are. No, I just wanted to make sure you were prepared for your match tonight. Make sure you were 100%.”
“I’m fine, Vince. I’m all set. No injuries. No nerves. I’m gonna go out there and prove myself to be No. 1 contender once again.”
“I figured as much. It’s just that damn Triple H playing mind games. Well, Rey, good luck out there. You better get out there. Your match is next.”
Rey Mysterio exits the office, and starts to make his way out the ring. But Triple H attacks him in the hallway. He throws Rey into the wall. He starts dragging Rey along and onto the entrance ramp. Triple H throws Rey Mysterio down the ramp to the foot of the apron. After bouncing his head off the apron, Triple H throws Mysterio into the steel steps. He’s reaching under the ring now… oh no, it’s the sledgehammer! Triple H delivers a devastating blow to the midsection with his prized equalizer. He brings Mysterio into the ring and orders that the bell be rung to start the match. The referee relunctantly begins the match.
Triple H vs. Rey Mysterio
Triple H sets Rey up for the Pedigree, but Rey miraculous counters into a pinning maneuver. Triple H almost immediately kicks out, but is quite surprised that Rey is showing signs of a fight in him still. But the sledgehammer shot has clearly taken its toll. Rey is holding his ribs and crawling into a corner. Trips is mocking Rey now, slapping him around the head and neck, while Rey tries to cover up. Triple H is now on his knees in the middle of the ring, daring Rey to try and get a shot in on him. Rey lifts himself up in the corner, then with a surprising burst of speed, darts out and dropkicks Triple H right in the face! Trips tries to recover quickly, but Rey is all over him now, delivering a flurry of kicks to the back and legs. Triple H is finally back up, but Mysterio is off the ropes and hits a dropkick to the knee. This takes Trips down for a sec, enough for Rey to get in another dropkick, this time to the head. As Triple H rises, Rey springboards off the ropes, but flies RIGHT into a big clothesline! Triple H does not look pleased at all. He clearly thought he was going to have it easy after that pre-match assault. After some mounted punches, Triple H applies a strong abdominal wrench hold on Rey, and you can see how painful it is. Right now, the injury sustained by the sledgehammer is clearly a bad one. Rey is nearly screaming in pain. After awhile, Rey manages to get an arm around the ropes for an automatic break. Rey Mysterio is bad shape. He goes for a hard kick, but HHH anticipated it and reversed it into an Atomic Drop. HHH Irish whips Mysterio, runs to the opposite ropes, hits the BIG KNEE to the face. Pin attempt gets two. Triple H picks up Rey, and goes to scoop slam him, but Mysterio slides out of it and jumps on Triple H’s shoulders, and performs a victory roll, which gets a two-count. As Triple H gets up, Mysterio hits an impressive spinning headscissors, taking HHH down once again. Mysterio gets on the apron, and springboards, landing a nice seated senton. 1… 2… and a kick-out by Triple H. Mysterio tries for the senton again, but this time Triple H counters with a vicious powerbomb!! 1… 2… NO!! Mysterio kicks out at two-and-a-half!! Triple H hits a hard knee drop and goes for another pin, which gets another two count. As Mysterio rises, Triple H lunges off the ropes, but Mysterio hits a drop toehold, and Triple H is in position for the 619!! And Mysterio connects. Triple is down, and Mysterio springboards… Droppin’ the Dime!! Cover… 1… 2… NO!! Triple H gets a shoulder up and two-and-a-half!! Mysterio bounds off the ropes again, but Triple H reverses into a BIG spinebuster!! HHH is calling for the finish. He sets Mysterio up for the Pedigree, but Mysterio counters. He’s up on HHH’s shoulders… WEST COAST POP!! HHH lands right on his head. Mysterio grabs the legs… 1… 2… 3!! That’s it!! Mysterio with the upset!! He wins!
Winner- Rey Mysterio (13:39)
Well, Mysterio went there wanting to impress Mr. McMahon, to prove that he deserves another shot at the World Title. And after that impressive underdog win, he may very well have done exactly that. And HHH is livid. His championship dreams seem to have been spoiled once again. Who knows what lengths he’ll go to get another chance?
Unfortunately, this is as much as I could do this week. Like I said, moving was hectic for me these last fews days. So I’ll sum up the other results as best as I can.
AJ Styles d. Christian Cage in the Ladder Match to retain the IC Championship. Tomko sided with Cage, and at one point even pushed over Styles’ ladder. But later interference was botched, as Tomko accidentally hit Cage with the Big Boot, then got a ladder to the face. Styles then hit the Styles Clash on Cage and climbed the ladder to retrieve the title belt.
Umaga d. The Rock. Umaga accidentally hit the referee, and then received a Rock Bottom. Armando Estrada tried to interfere but got a Rock Bottom as well. But while The Rock was busy with Estrada, Triple H snuck down to the ring, and then hit The Rock with a sledgehammer, and then the Pedigree, dragged Umaga over The Rock, and then got the ref up, who counted the pin.
Randy Orton d. Eddie Guerrero in the No Holds Barred Match to win the UWE Championship. After a long, bloody battle that went over a half an hour and included the use of chairs, garbage cans, barbed wire baseball bats, thumbtacks, a fire extinguisher, and the announcer's table, Eddie Guerrero looked to have the match in hand. But Randy Orton rolled out of the way of a Frog Splash on the outside, and then hit an RKO on Eddie Guerrero’s low rider.
Hope you enjoyed the show. And I promise, my next show, Collision, will have complete results and match re-caps. I may choose to write in a shorter format of re-cap, though.
