NEW Saturday Night
July 8th 2006
The show opens with picture highlights from the Great American Bash. This includes the Edge/Christian “loser leaves NEW match” with Edge picking up the victory, JBL’s defeat at the hands of CSW’s Samoa Joe, and The Rock overcoming Abyss and Jeff Jarrett to become the NWA World Champion! Ernie Rowe and Professor Plague are on commentary and welcome us to another thrilling edition of NEW Saturday Night!
In-ring segment: The NWA Champion!
Eric Bischoff is standing in the ring and he is holding the NWA Championship.
Bischoff: Ladies and gentlemen, it is my great, great honor to introduce you all to the brand new NWA World Heavyweight Champion…THE ROCK!
The Rock comes out to a thunderous ovation. He makes his way to the ring, and Bischoff places the belt on his shoulders. Rock then climbs each turnbuckle to greet the fans and show off his championship. The Rock takes a microphone.
Rock: Finally… THE ROCK has come back to… Bangor. And The Rock has once again climbed to the top of our business, as The Rock stands before you as the ten time World Champion (7 WWE titles, 2 WCW titles, 1 NWA title, for those of you keeping track). The Rock was proud to represent New England Wrestling at the Great American Bash and even prouder to become the champion. The Rock also has some good news. Even though The Rock now represents the entire National Wrestling Alliance, The Rock will be staying in NEW until September! The Rock… (Jericho’s music cuts him off).
Chris Jericho comes out onto the stage, with the NEW Championship around his waist. Jericho looks furious and he has a microphone.
Jericho: No, no, no, NO! This was not supposed to happen! I was supposed to beat your sorry ass at River Rumble, which I did, and then be the undisputed top dog here in NEW. There was going to be no overshadowing me this time around, but you had to go on and win the NWA title. You should not even have been in that match. Bischoff, what kind of backwards logic says that the LOSER of a match gets to represent NEW? I beat The Rock cleanly, I MADE HIM TAP OUT! HE SHOULD NOT BE THE NWA WORLD CHAMPION!
Rock: Chris Jericho, you can stand there and bitch and moan and whine until you further convince these fans that you are undoubtedly the biggest jackass on the planet, or… you can just bring it.
Jericho: Oh, I’ll bring it. I want a shot at your NWA Championship and I want it tonight!
Bischoff: No, Jericho, that will not be happening. You have a championship and you have a big title defense to prepare for at 32 Flavors of Pain. You need to concentrate on your opponent, the Big Show.
Jericho: Oh, like I should be scared of Big Show. Seriously, he’s the most useless 500 lb man I have ever met. If he spent as much time in the gym as he does at the buffet, maybe his two world title reigns wouldn’t have been shorter than my single reign back in the WWF days. Or maybe he wouldn’t have gone from headlining WrestleMania 16 to hanging out at that crappy WWF New York restaurant at WrestleMania 18. Oh wait, because Big Show is big, and fat, and a complete joke. You have to do better than that, Bischoff.
Bischoff: Okay, Jericho. If you want the Rock and if you think Big Show is no threat, then I’ll tell you what I’m going to do. After all, only two people in NEW call the shots around here. One of them is Ernie Rowe… and the other one is not Chris Jericho. That would be me, and to tell you the truth I was extremely upset last week when my big main event ended with a disqualification! That’s not going to happen again this week, my friend. Tonight, it will be Chris Jericho and Sonny Siaki once again wrestling The Rock and Big Show… in a no disqualifications match!
Rock: You heard the man, Jericho. If I were you, I’d go find Sonny Boy and make sure he’s ready. If you SMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL…. WHAT THE ROCK…IS…COOKING!

Match One: Team 3D vs The Basham Brothers
Both teams bring their working boots and they put on a pretty competitive little match up. Both teams make some quick tags throughout the match, keeping the action fresh and lively. Finally, Team 3D appears to be on the verge of victory, when America’s Most Wanted’s music hits the speakers and the lights go dim. The distraction allows the legal man, Doug Basham, to roll out of the ring, and Danny to take his place without anyone noticing. Danny rolls up Brother Ray and pins him at 6:00.
Winners: The Basham Brothers, ***3/4 (84/78/90)
After the match, Team 3D charge out back in search of AMW.
In-ring segment: JBL is displeased.
John Bradshaw Layfield makes his way to the ring. He does not look happy either, due to his painful loss at the Great American Bash. He takes a microphone.
JBL: I don’t know what is wrong with this organization. The NWA has been branched up into separate territories, and if you ask me, superstars should not be crossing over from one to the other (Rowe protests, saying that JBL egged Joe on in the first place). This hasn’t been a big problem with most of the territories, but there has been one that seems to have a difficult time knowing their place: Central States Wrestling. First Chris Sabin just waltzes on in here, then Samoa Joe has the nerve to show his face at River Rumble, and then Johnny Devine makes himself at home in MY ring! This is an outrage! To make matters worse, at the Great American Bash, I have to sit back and watch John Cena and Samoa Joe act like old buddies! What is the matter with them? Joe is CSW! Cena is Mid-Atlantic! It makes me sick when any self respecting wrestler will disrespect their home territory like that! I mean, CSW sucks and all, but Joe should be making the best of it, ditto to the Mid-Atlantic. Now I know Cena is a New England boy at heart, but I have a warning for you Cena. I made an example of Joe at River Rumble (Rowe tries to remind the fans that Joe beat JBL at the Bash), I made an example of Chris Sabin, and I made an example of Johnny Devine. Cena, if you show your face here in NEW, I will kick you in the face so hard you’ll be crapping out your teeth. Got that, junior? Good. Now tonight, I get to make an example of Sabin and Devine again, I wanted it to be a handicap match, but Eric Bischoff told me that I needed to have a partner. So I went out and found a good old boy, one who I am proud to call my protégé. I want you all to give a show of respect to my tag team partner, and friend: Trevor Murdoch!
Murdoch comes out to a wave of lukewarm heel heat. He and JBL share a good heterosexual hug and await the arrival of their opponents.
(77)
Match Two: JBL and Trevor Murdoch vs Chris Sabin and Johnny Devine
JBL and Devine start the match off, with JBL overpowering the smaller star. JBL tags in Murdoch, who continues to work away on Devine. Murdoch goes through a series of rest holds that somehow don’t thrill the crowd. Devine finally makes the tag to Sabin, who drop kicks JBL off of the turnbuckle and hits an impressive cradle suplex on Murdoch for the victory at 5:15.
Winners: Chris Sabin and Johnny Devine, **1/4 (72/68/77)
After the match, JBL throws a temper tantrum and hits Sabin with the clothesline from Hell. Devine tries to make a save, but he also suffers the clothesline. Murdoch and JBL are beating down the two helpless stars when none other than JOHN CENA runs in through the audience. JBL flees the ring at the sight of Cena, but leaves Murdoch behind, who suffers an F-U. Cena challenges JBL to get back into the ring, but JBL just runs for it.
Backstage interview: Big Show
Iron Troy Cumings is standing by with the number one contender for the NEW Championship, the Big Show. Iron Troy asks Big Show for his feelings on the upcoming title match, as well as his thoughts on Jericho’s rant from earlier tonight.
Big Show: You know something, Iron Troy, Chris Jericho was completely correct. For a seven foot tall, 500 pound man, I haven’t quite lived up to the expectations that were placed above me. I’ll admit it, I broke into the business at a company where hard work was not rewarded and I was given a lot of things without having to pay my dues for them. But you know something, times have changed, and now I have paid my dues. I have worked the territories, I have stepped up my training, and I am more focused now than I have ever been in my career. Only now, I have everything in the world to prove. I need to prove to the world, and to myself, that I am the biggest, nastiest, bastard walking the face of the Earth. When I step into the ring with Jericho’s NEW Championship on the line, I am going to vent years worth of frustration, frustration at not having been a dominant world champion before now. I am going to pour all my rage, anger, and frustration into that one single match. I am going to tear Jericho apart and make him suffer. He will have no idea what hit him and when he wakes up hours later in the hospital, he will have to recover knowing that the NEW Championship is over my shoulder, and there is no man evil or monstrous enough to take it away from me.
(84)
Rowe: Strong words from the Big Show. You know, something about the look in his eyes tells me that Show means every word he says. I think Chris Jericho is going to be in big, big trouble at 32 Flavors of Pain.
Plague: For his sake, Big Show had better be ready to back up his words. At this point, I don’t think Big Show can afford to not win the NEW Championship!
Rowe: And coming up next, Spartacus has demanded to wrestle in a submission match tonight, to send a message out to Mick Foley.
Plague: That’s right, Ric… I mean, Spartacus, will be facing Foley in a submission match at 32 Flavors of Pain, and Ric…Spartacus is going to show Foley how it’s done. I can only imagine Foley cowering in a corner somewhere now that he actually has to wrestle Fla…Spartacus, and not just throw him into a pile of dog crap.
Match Three: Spartacus vs James Gibson (submission match)
James Gibson is making his New England Wrestling debut and receives a pretty polite pop from the audience. Spartacus continues to look ridiculous with his shaved head, earring, and toga. Spartacus hits some chops on Gibson, though he is really interested in working on Gibson’s legs to prepare for the figure four. Gibson is no easy opponent and answers Spartacus’s chops with some stiff strikes of his own. Gibson tries to go for the Trailer Hitch, but Spartacus counters and attempts the Figure Four. Gibson escapes and goes to clothesline Spartacus over the ropes. Spartacus gets tangled up in the ropes, with his toga going over his head. The referee attempts to rescue Spartacus from the mess, distracting him from a run in from Tommy Dreamer. Dreamer takes a kendo stick and cracks it across the back of Gibson’s knees. Dreamer flees the scene of the crime as Spartacus is freed. Spartacus puts the Figure Four on Gibson, who quickly taps out at 5:48.
Winner: Spartacus, **3/4 (78/78/79)
After the match, Mick Foley comes out to check on Gibson and vows to make Spartacus choke on Mr. Socko at 32 Flavors of Pain.
Rowe: Once again, this strange friendship between Spartacus and Tommy Dreamer has paid off in Spartacus's favor.
Plague: Spartacus was dominant tonight! Foley does not stand a chance at 32 Flavors of Pain!
Backstage Segment: Jericho checks on his partner.
Sonny Siaki is getting warmed up for his big match in his dressing room. Jericho storms into it.
Jericho: Okay, man, I don’t like it but you and I are teaming up… again! You know, I’m the NEW Champion now, so I really can’t afford to have you constantly around, making me look bad.
Siaki: What the hell are you talking about? When have I ever made you look bad? You know, I’m making a name for myself right now. I drove The Undertaker away from NEW. I’m getting noticed and I’m making myself heard. In a way, I’m kind of like how you were back in the old... (Jericho pushes Siaki against the wall).
Jericho: Listen here, bitch boy. I am NOTHING like you. I am a champion and the star of this show. You and I have nothing in common, you are here because I allow you to be here. Now let’s just go have our match, and you better pray that you don’t get in my way. Is that perfectly clear, junior!?
Siaki: Whatever, man, it’s cool!
Jericho: Good… see you in the ring.
(84)
Match Four: The Rock and Big Show vs Chris Jericho and Sonny Siaki (No Disqualifications)
Rock and Big Show have a disagreement at first over who starts off, since they both want to get their hands on Jericho. Jericho makes the decision easier for them by forcing Siaki to start off as the legal man. Big Show pounds away at Siaki for several minutes, tossing him all over the ring. Siaki finally gets a drop kick on Big Show’s knee and Show goes down to one leg. Siaki hits a flying spin kick into the face of Big Show. Jericho wants a tag, but Siaki claims he’s in control. Siaki goes for a flying crossbody, but Big Show catches him by the throat and chokeslams him straight to hell! Show goes for a cover, but Jericho reluctantly breaks it up. Siaki tags Jericho in, and Big Show pummels the life out of Jericho. The Rock suddenly makes a blind tag and he fires away at Jericho too. They spill over the ropes and brawl at ringside. Siaki is then able to take a steel chair and sneaks up on Big Show and cracks it across his back. This only angers Big Show and he starts beating Siaki all the way up the entrance ramp. The referee can’t do anything about it! Meanwhile, Rock and Jericho are back in the ring and Rock hits the People’s Elbow on Jericho. He goes for the cover and it’s 1……2……..no! Rock then hits the Rock Bottom, but before he can capitalize, EDGE storms the ring and spears him! Edge looks deranged and grabs the NWA Championship belt. Edge returns to the ring and cracks Rock over the head with his new title! The referee cannot do anything about it and is forced to count to three when Jericho makes the cover, giving Jericho the victory at 10:04!
Winners: Chris Jericho and Sonny Siaki, ***1/2 (87/89/88)
After the match, Big Show tries to make the save but gets cracked in the head with the title belt as well. Siaki returns and a three on two beat down follows… until a familiar face runs in through the crowd. It’s none other than RHINO! Rhino gores the hell out of Siaki, clotheslines Edge over the ropes, and by this point Jericho has run for his life. Rhino has made the save, and helps Rock and Big Show to their feet. This chaos brings out Eric Bischoff, with a microphone.
Bischoff: I wasn’t expecting Rhino to show up for another week or two, but I’m damn glad he’s here. This gives me a great idea for next week’s main event! It will be a six man tag team match, with The Rock, Big Show, and Rhino facing Chris Jericho, Sonny Siaki, and Edge!
Plague: That’s going to be a hell of a match!
Rowe: I don’t understand why Edge got involved in this match!
Plague: It’s simple, Rowe, The Rock has the NWA Championship, and Edge wants it!
Rowe: It’s not that simple, if Edge thinks he can get a title shot just by attacking the champion, then he’s going to be in a world of shock. If he wants a title shot, he’s going to have to earn it!
Plague: What I’m wondering is why the hell did Rhino get involved in all of this!
Rowe: He has some long standing hatred of Edge and Jericho, that and he likely wanted to make a big impact with his debut.
Plague: Mission accomplished.
Rowe: What a night this has been!

CSW Cyclone Saturday Night
June July 9, 2006
Announcers: Joey Styles & Tazz
Missouri Western State University Fieldhouse. St. Joseph, MO
A quick recap video airs from last week, showcasing Mike Sanders’ Cyclone Spotlight Challenge to Brent Albright, Petey Williams’ successful defense of the KC Border Title, Brock Lesnar on the prowl backstage, and the main event, featuring Alex Shelley v X-pac in a Steel Cage. The video showed the brutal beatdown of Shelley following his victory over X-pac by the newly reformed Degeneration X. The video closed with DX on all four corners of the Cage. Cyclone is NOW!
Styles: Thanks for joining us on Cyclone. I’m Joey Styles, alongside Tazz, and what a night we have for you tonight. We’ll see New Jack in another hardcore challenge match, Brock Lesnar in one on one action, and a big tag team match. The CSW Tag Team Champion Natural Born Thrillers will face the two men that they confronted last week, Billy Kidman & Charlie Haas. We’ve been told we’ll also hear from Degeneration X, but first, lets head to the ring for the Cyclone Spotlight Match!
Cyclone Spotlight: Brent Albright w/Ken Shamrock v Mike Sanders
Albright is once again accompanied to the ring by Ken Shamrock, who takes a seat with the announcers. He talks about how he and Albright’s training is progressing, and how he is almost ready to take that next step in CSW. Mike Sanders comes out to a negative reaction from the crowd. The ref calls for the bell. A hot match with alot of quick action. Albright works on Sanders’ shoulder for the majority of the match, with Sanders constantly squirming away to the ropes. Shamrock shouts encouragement and strategy to Albright from the announce table. Everytime Albright gets Sanders in a position to tapout, Sanders reaches just a bit farther for the ropes. The Finish: At 11 minutes, Albright locks in a cross-armbreaker, but Sanders rolls over on top of Albright, still locked in the armbreaker, and pins Albright’s shoulders to the mat. 1...2...NO! Albright releases to get his shoulders up. Great counter by Sanders. Sanders catches Albright and goes for the Lungblower, but Albright grabs the ropes, and Sanders drops to the mat by himself, knocking the wind out of himself. Albright looks to Shamrock, who yells “back to the arm, and don’t let it go!”. Albright immediately knows what to do, and wraps the cross-armbreaker on Sanders again. Sanders is screaming in pain as the crowd feels the tap going. Sanders rolls himself over again, this time grabbing the top rope for leverage. Albright wrenches harder. 1...2...3!!!
Mike Sanders defeats Brent Albright by pinfall in 14:32. (71/67/75)
Post-Match: Sanders celebrates as if he won the NWA World Title, jumping around the ring, while holding his limp arm at his side. Albright holds his head in his hands as Sanders skips out of the arena, knowing he’ll be back right here next week. Shamrock went silent the minute the pinfall happened, and smacks his headset off with a thud. He walks by the ring glaring at Albright. Albright rolls out, and Shamrock slaps him on the back in encouragement, and says “We have alot of work to do”, as they walk up the ramp and disappear into the back.
In-Ring Segment: Break It Down
The all-too familiar music of Degeneration X fills the arena, as Triple H, X-pac, Billy Gunn, and Road Dogg walk to the ring to a mostly negative reaction from the crowd. Triple H is all smiles with his CSW Title over his shoulder, and the Outlaws are being a bit goofy on the way to the ring. They hit the ring, and Billy Gunn takes the microphone first:
Gunn: I don’t know if you’ve all heard....but the band is back together!!
The crowd boos as Gunn passes the mic to Road Dogg, as he goes into his familiar fast-talking announcer voice.
Road Dogg: Lllllladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages. Central States Wrestling, is proud to present to you—
Road Dogg looks up and rolls his eyes at the crowd a bit.
Road Dogg: Nah, this aint your grand-daddy’s DX. Ladies, you wish you could be in this ring. Gentlemen, you’ll never look as good as this crew, especially you fatty! And as for the children of all ages? Well you better put them to bed because we may just open another can of bloodshed before this night ends.
The crowd boos even louder as Road Dogg hands the mic to X-pac.
X-pac: Yeah, that’s right. Bloodshed. Just like last week, when I bloodied Alex Shelley and stained the mat with his blood. Did you all like that? (boos) And then even better, when DX hit the ring, and really gave that pump the asswhipping of his lifetime. You may have won the match, but I’m sure when you looked in the mirror, you know who won the war.
X-pac then passes the microphone to Triple H. As soon as he touches it, the crowd builds into a frenzy of boos, asshole chants, and random other profane chants.
Triple H: Haha. Is that all you got Missouri? (Boos even louder). Good job sheep. For the past 8 days, since I won my CSW Championship at Redemption, I’ve listened to the questions. “Why, Triple H?” “Why reunite yourself with the Outlaws.” “Why reunite yourself with X-pac?” “You’re better than that!” “You can do it on your own!” Well the truth of the matter is, we can all do it on our own. We have nothing to prove. We’re the most decorated stars in CSW, and we’ve worked our asses off for years to get to where we are today. So boo all you want. Chant all you want. DX is back together, and that’s the way it is gonna be for a long, long time.
The crowd continues unleashing boos and chants as the Outlaws and X-Pac banter with them.
Triple H: So why? It is simple. Almost 8 years ago, when we formed Degeneration X, we did it for one reason: to get ahead. We were some of the hottest young talents in wrestling, and no one listened to a word we said, until we started telling people to suck it. We banded together, and we took over the wrestling business. 8 years later, and we still have a stranglehold on this business, and I’ll be damned if we’ll let it go. We’re back together to watch each other’s backs. There are alot of NEW hot young talents. Kids like Alex Shelley. Kids that will stop at nothing to make a name for themselves. Well thats where we all come in. We watch each other’s backs, and we continue to dominate this business, as we have for the last 8 years. DX is back together, and you can’t crack this foundation. And if you have a problem with that, then we got two wo—
Triple H is cut off by the music of Alex Shelley. Shelley walks out on the stage, his usual two-toned hair pattern covered by a heavy bandage over his forehead. He has a mic in hand. Triple H is sure to get the first word in:
Triple H: Kid, are you nuts? You didn’t get enough? Look at your head. Hey, if you want to come down here and have your career ended before it even starts, then please, be my guest.
Triple H sits on the middle rope, holding it open, and continues shooting off at the mouth before Shelley cuts him off...
Shelley: Triple H, please SHUT THE F*** UP!!
Triple H’s jaw drops, but he quickly composes and looks pissed as the crowd joins in with a “Shut the F*** up” chant.
Shelley: I’m not here to take another ass whooping. WE are here too whoop ALL YOUR ASSES.
Triple H smiles at DX as he chuckles a bit.
Triple H: YOU are gonna whoop our asses? You have a turd in your pocket or what?
Alex Shelley sarcastically smiles at Triple H’s joke, and then looks over his shoulder. Austin Aries & Roderick Strong emerge from the curtain, and flank Shelley on both sides. DX is shocked, obviously less confident than before, but composes to keep their charade going.
Shelley: I’m sure you’ve heard the rumblings over the last few years. I’m sure you’ve heard the fans, and read the reports. Hell, your ass has probably even watched a few DVDs to try and learn a new goddam move or two. We are Generation Next. Alex Shelley, Austin Aries, and Roderick Strong. We WERE the future of professional wrestling.
Triple H interrupts Shelley.
Triple H: Exactly punk, you WERE the future of wrestling, until you came out here tonight, smarted off at the mouth, and ended up getting kill—
Shelley: I told you once to shut up, now you better listen, or Austin Aries will come down there and shut your mouth for you. (The crowd oohs). We WERE the future, but the future is now. Generation Next is now, and we are the PRESENT of professional wrestling. And we’ll take great pleasure in finally getting rid of the PAST, you old farts in the ring.
Generation Next begins walking to the ring as the Outlaws & X-pac step to the ring rope with Triple H backing up.
Triple H: Woah woah woah. I know they aren’t teaching you kids much in the schools today, but you’re still 1 short for your little quartet. I’ll make you a deal, cause I’m not wrestling tonight. I need a week or two off. At Insurgency, on July 30th, we’ll have an 8 Man Tag Team Match. Degeneration X, against “Generation Next”, assuming you can find another 205 pound, 5 foot 11, white boy with spikey hair to round out your crew there. Whaddaya say?
Without hesitation, Austin Aries snaps the microphone out of Shelley’s hand.
Aries: You got it! Generation Next v DX at Insurgency. But I really was hoping to get in some action tonight, after being robbed by the Outlaws at Redemption for our chance at the Tag Team Titles. So how bout a little preview tonight. Tag Team Action. You two step in the ring with myself and Roderick Strong, assuming you have any semen left in those old ass balls of yours.
Triple H: Who the hell do you think you are kid? Fine, you get the Outlaws tonight. Prepare to join your buddy Alex Shelley in the concussion ward after the match though. Are we done?
Aries: Oh no no. I didn’t mean the Outlaws. I meant the guys standing next to them. That big blond bitch with the title draped over his shoulder, and his greasy little monkey sidekick. (The crowd oohs again)/
Triple H: You know what. I was gonna take the night off. But now you pissed me off. Fine. Me & X-pac v You and your buddy there. Now get the hell off of my stage.
Strong grabs the mic.
Strong: With pleasure. And get the hell out of OUR ring.
With that, Generation Next turns and walks away, as DX looks on in aggravation, of the young guys getting the last word on them.
(78)
Tazz: What a confrontation here. Not only do we now have a huge 8 man Tag Team Match at Insurgency, but tonight, Triple H & X-pac v Austin Aries & Roderick Strong!
Hardcore Match: New Jack v Roadkill
New Jack comes to the ring, again with a trash can full of weapons. He grabs a mic as the censors put their fingers on the button:
New Jack: So the crackas in the front office told me to come out here and continue my hardcore challenge. I figured I better be a good n***a and do what they tell me, or they might fire or hang my black ass. I told em I’ll do this s**t every week, cause I love nothing more than making a cracka bleed. Last week, Danny Doring, and this week, his big Amish bastard of a partner, Road Kill. Don’t say I didn’t warn you boy. Keep em comin, cause I got no problem showing everyone I’m the toughest hardcore thug in the world.
Roadkill makes his way to the ring. The ref calls for the bell. A slightly better contest than Danny Doring mustered, but still pretty one sided. New Jack owns the hardcore element once again, and destroyed Road Kill with weapons. He pulls out a stapler, and staples Roadkill right on the forehead, drawing blood. New Jack grabs a leg and rolls up Roadkill as he writhes in pain. 1...2...3.
New Jack defeats Roadkill by pinfall in 5:21. (62/61/64)
Styles: Well it looks like New Jack is now a staple (pardon the pun) of Cyclone Saturday Night. Hardcore wrestling fans rejoice, and cops grabs their guns.
In-Ring Segment: International Incident
Petey Williams & Trish Stratus make their way out to the ring, Trish carrying Petey’s KC Border Title over her shoulder, stroking it the whole way. They get in the ring, and Trish grabs the microphone:
Trish: Last week, Petey Williams began a reign that will re-write the record books in professional wrestling, when he made his first KC Border Title defense against Shelton Benjamin, of course, winning. We’re here this week to issue a challenge. The talent pool is pretty much dried up here in CSW, and with no REAL contender to my man’s title, Petey has come up with a “Democratic” situation, seeing as how that’s the way you like to do things here in America.
Petey: Next week, we’ll have the first ever International Incident matchup. It is time to determine some contenders, and see some people step up and pursue this “American Dream” I’ve heard so much about. So we’ll take 4 of the top CSW talent, respresenting different nationalities. Representing the best country in the world, Canada, will of course, be myself. Representing Mexico, one half of the Mexicools, Psicosis (cheers). Respresenting Japan, or China, or something: Jimmy Yang. Well, he looks oriental at least. And the final competitor, respresenting, uhhh, well. Babe?
Trish: No clue. The jungle. The amazon. Your local zoo?
Petey: Well I don’t have a clue what the hell Low-Ki is, but he’s the 4th guy. So yeah, step it up boys. Show me something, and prove to me that there is competition out there for my KC Border Title. I can only get so much of a workout at home with my lady friend here...
Trish: Speaking of which...
Trish knocks the mic from Petey’s hands, and they being making out. Trish Stratus finishes it all off by licking the KC Border Title, and they head into the back.
(93)
Tazz: So next week we get our first International Incident match? Petey Williams v Psicosis v Jimmy Yang v Low Ki. If nothing else, it’ll be a hell of a matchup.
Brock Lesnar v Elix Skipper
Lesnar makes his way out first to a huge reaction from the crowd. Skipper enters second to a slightly less enthusiastic reaction. Basically an extended squash. Lesnar dominated with power moves, and his rare blend of quickness and size. Skipper takes over for a minute in the middle of the match after hitting a spinning heel kick. Skipper goes up top and tries a huracanrana, leaping down onto Lesnar, but Lesnar counters and immediately drive Skipper down to the mat with a powerbomb. Lesnar then hangs on to Skipper’s leg, lifting him again and driving him down with another powerbomb. 1...2...3!
Brock Lesnar defeats Elix Skipper by pinfall in 4:56. (80/76/85)
Post-Match: As Lesnar stares into the camera intently, the crowd suddenly begins booing. The sound of a throat clearing can be heard, as all of the attention is turned to the video screen above the entrance.
In-Ring Segment: Live via Satellite
It’s Steve Corino. A close up shot of Corino’s face fills the video screen, heavy scarring visible on Corino’s forehead. During the entire promo, the camera is very slowly panning backward, revealing more and more of Corino.
Corino: Hello. I’m coming to you live via satellite from a location that shall remain unkown at this time, at the request of my lawyers. Before I begin, I would first like to say thank you. Thank you to all of my fans that sent get well cards, letters, drawings, boxes of chocolates, and assorted candies to me in my time of need. As you may well know, I was recently the victim of a brutal assault at the hands of the man standing in the ring before you, Brock Lesnar. Due to this vicious attack, I had to take time off from doing the thing I love best: logging onto myspace. Now that I am almost fully recovered, I have an announcement to make.
Lesnar stands in the ring, staring intently at the screen, and attempting to take Corino’s sarcastic ploys intentionally.
Corino: What I hold here in my hands, is a legal document known by many commoners as a “Restraining Order”. This restraining order is effective from this day, July 8, 2006, until July 30th, 2006. It says that the violating party, Brock Lesnar, may not be within 100 feet of the violated, Steve Corino. This document offers me legal protection from the man who viciously and unnecessarily assaulted me at CSW Redemption, Brock Lesnar. I lost almost 1/3 of the total blood in my body, Brock. You wanted my blood? You got it. And now, I want YOUR blood. This restraining order is up on July 30, as I said. July 30th, CSW Insurgency, from Columbia, Missouri. It is going to be the King of Old School, Steve Corino, one on one with Brock Lesnar....in a First Blood match. This time Brock, I get to see you wear the crimson mask. But remember, you can’t come with 100 feet of me until then, or you will be arrested on the spot, and will neeeever get in the ring with me, Brock.
Lesnar looks aggravated at the thought of arrest, but is licking his chops at the thought of getting ahold of Corino, and finishing the job.
Corino: Ah yes, and one more thing. As confident as I may be in the American Justice System, I have taken it upon myself to provide myself with a backup plan.
The camera slowly pans back to reveal a massive black man standing over Corino’s shoulder. It is Monty Brown. He wears a black and white suit with a dark tie, and black sunglasses over his eyes. He stands with arms crossed, emotionless, behind Corino.
Corino: Meet Mr. Brown, my bodyguard. If for any reason you decide to violate this Restraining Order, Brock, then Mr. Brown will be glad to detain you until the proper officials arrive on the scene to do their job. Finally I am pleased to announce that will make my long-awaited return to the ring next week on Cyclone. Thank you all for your time. Keep those cards and letters coming, and Godspeed. Lesnar, you’re a dead man at Insurgency.
The video feet cuts and Lesnar looks around the arena as the crowd cheers for him, and boos Corino at the same time.

Styles: Has Corino lost his mind, or did the bloodshed just screw up his brain? HE wants Brock Lesnar in a First Blood match at Insurgency? Talk about a death wish. And he has restraining order, and a new bodyguard, “Mr. Brown”?
Natural Born Thrillers © v Billy Kidman & Charlie Haas
Hot-paced tag team matchup, that saw the champs using their tag team skills to control most of the match. Frequent tags in and out of the ring, and double team moves led them to corner Kidman, and make him the face in peril. Halfway through the match, the camera noticed Joel Gertner sitting in the audience at ringside. He had a clipboard, and appeared to be scouting the tag team scene in CSW. Kidman eventually tagged in Haas, who cleaned house, and scored a nearfall with a bulldog off the middle rope. The Finish: Kidman hit the Sky-High powerbomb for a near fall on Jindrak. Haas then hit a stungun on Jindrak, and then grabbed his legs, draping him over the top rope. Haas motioned for Kidman to bounce off the ropes, but instead, Kidman climbed to the top. In the confusion, Sean O’Haire blindsided Haas, knocking him out of the ring. He then crotched Kidman on the top, and Kidman fell to the mat. O’Haire set up and got a running start, nailing the Shining Wizard on Kidman for the 3 count!
Natural Born Thrillers defeat Kidman & Haas by pinfall in 8:02. (74/70/78)
Post-Match: Charlie Haas looked up from the floor at ringside, and hung is head in shame. He said something about “his partner” as he walked down the entranceway and into the back. Kidman began walking out as well, when Masato Tanaka’s music hit. Tanaka walked out on the stage, and had a microphone?
Tanaka: Last week, you kick my ass. Next week, I kick your ass. CSW Tag Team Titles. Me, and SAMOA JOE kick your ass!
The crowd explodes as Tanaka has apparently just made a challenge to the Thrillers. Tanaka & Samoa Joe team up to take on the Thrillers, for the CSW Tag Team Titles. The Thrillers look on, and seem to look forward to the challenge. A camera shot cuts to the back.
We see Charlie Haas walking intently through the backstage area, as he comes to a door that reads “SHELTON BENJAMIN”. Haas stops, takes a breath, and walks through the door as the announcers speculate.
Tazz: So the Thrillers retain, Tanaka lays down a challenge, and Charlie Haas apparently is looking for a new, or maybe old, tag team partner. Either way, we’ve just heard in our earpiece that it is indeed official. Next week’s Main Event: CSW Tag Team Title Match: Natural Born Thrillers v Masato Tanaka & Samoa Joe.
Main Event: Austin Aries & Roderick Strong v Triple H & X-pac
Aries & Strong make their entrance with Alex Shelley by their side. The entire DX crew then comes down. Before the match can even begin, the referee removes Gunn, Road Dogg, and Shelley from ringside, leaving us with the 4 men in the tag team matchup. He calls for the bell. Great main event tag team matchup, with the crowd solidly behind GenNext. Aries & Strong use their tag team specialty to nail a variety of double team maneuvers, and score consistent nearfalls on both X-pac & Triple H. Strong hits a gutbuster on Shelley, but the pinfall is broken up by Triple H. The match eventually loses control, and turns into a brawl. Triple H & Aries go at it at ringside, as X-pac takes control in the ring against Strong. X-pac nails the bronco buster, but turns around to eat a series of hard chops from Strong. Strong chops him in the corner, with the crowd counting along. Strong then hits a powerbomb into a backbreaker, but Triple H pulls him out of the ring by his foot. X-pac hits the ropes, and dives onto all 3 men at ringside. The Finish: With all 4 men on the floor, the referee heads out to try and get them all back in the ring. Aries slides into the ring, and may be looking for a dive of his own. Billy Gunn & Road Dogg return to the ring, and nail a spike piledriver on Aries while the ref is still on the outside trying to seperate Strong, Triple H, and X-pac. Strong continues chopping at X-pac as Triple H rolls into the ring. He pulls Aries up, and nails the Pedigree. 1...2...3!
Triple & X-pac defeat Aries & Strong by pinfall in 13:22. (78/70/87)
Post-match: The Outlaws jump Roderick Strong, and start a 3 on 1 assault on him at ringside with X-pac. Triple H looks like he is dragging Aries to the corner. Its Alex Shelley. Shelley, still bandaged up, runs into the ring and begins peppering Triple H with rights and lefts. Billy Gunn slides in and tackles Shelley, pounding on him. X-pac grabs the CSW Title and tosses it over the top rope into Triple H’s arms. Triple H lines Shelley up, and levels him with the title, slightly opening the gash on his head underneath all the bandages. DX stands over the fallen Generation Next as the show goes off the air!
Styles: DX stands tall for the second week in a row. What will Generation Next do next week? And don’t miss all the huge action we already have lined up. Mike Sanders opens the Cyclone Spotlight for the first time, Petey Williams’ International Incident Challenge, Steve Corino’s return to the CSW ring, and the huge Tag Team Title Match, featuring the Natural Born Thrillers defending against Tanaka & Joe. We’ll see you next week!!
