Doctor #1:Has she spoken yet?

Doctor #2:She hasn't said a word since she came here, hasn't eaten a thing, and hasn't moved from that window. Just like her file said.

#1:Therapist?

#2:A Dr. Grayson. He hasn't arrived from Baltimore yet.

#1:Keep her under observation. You, (motions to the third doctor) go take her blood pressure.

(The first two doctors leave the third behind. He opens the door.... then stops.)

Doctor #3:Damn! Forgot my notepad.

(He leaves, closing the door behind him.... but it's caught! A figure walks into the room.)

MAN:I saw you on TV. I used to be there, too.

(Sunshine turns her head to see..... Junior Hornet!)

Sunshine:You.... I remember hearing about you.

JH:The CSWA needs Hornet! I've got to get there!

Sunshine:You're.... You were Timmy's partner, weren't you?

JH:Amongst others. I wouldn't expect YOU to know any of them. If you'll excuse me, I've got an interview to attend.

Sunshine:Yeah, right.... Wait a sec! You're allowed visitors, right?

JH:But of course.

Sunshine:I've got a favor to ask you.....

ANNOUNCER: The following program is presented by CS Enterprises in association with U-62 Television.

BB(V/O): It's not an uncommon thing to see two men resolve their differences in the ring.

(Cut to: Scenes from Harders/Rap Man II and Starr/Melton)

But every now and then, an animosity so deep forms, that merely one match cannot contain the ensuing ferocity.

(Cut to: Scenes from Deacon/Pat Black, Hornet/Troy, and Mark Windham/GUNS)

At an even higher level is a deep seeded need to simply HURT the other.

(Cut to: Slo-mo closeup of Randalls staking GUNS' knee)

TONIGHT.... for the first time in the CSWA, we will see two men take a feud to a level that few have returned from. A feud that may very well not end until one man has died.

(Cut to:Vizzack/Radder)

Mark Vizzack..... The leader of the new CSWA generation.... A man who has overcome adversity....

(Cut to:Powers/Vizzack from FFXII)

A man who has overcome defeat....

(Cut to:Vizzack/Starr from SPT Chicago)

A man who stands ready to unleash his full potential on the CSWA..... but tonight his opponent is far deadlier then any the CSWA has seen before.

(Cut to:Dante Inferno, in the AWA, firing a nail gun at an opponent)

"The Destroyer" Dante Inferno.... A man who defines insanity... a man who defines pain....

(Cut to:Dante Inferno holding Sunshine Del Payne by the arms as his manager Silky Rose cuts her stomach with a straight razor)

These two have met in the ring but once before.... in what Mark Vizzack refers to as the crowning moment of his career to date...

(Cut to AWA WrestlePalooza '97: Dante Inferno tosses Vizzack over the top rope, but Vizzack catches it, and slingshots himself back in to catch Inferno with a flying bodypress, handing Inferno his only pinfall loss EVER, as well as recapturing the AWA World Title.)

Since that day, Inferno has been obsessed with the destruction of both Mark Vizzack and Sunshine Del Payne.... They are his 'prey,' as he puts it, and they 'belong to him.'

TONIGHT.....

Vizzack has stated that he refuses to wait for Inferno to begin stalking him, and will end things TONIGHT.

(Cut to:Prerecorded comments from Vizzack)

MV:I know you're not looking forward to this match, Dante.... and I know it's because you haven't screwed with me enough. One way or another, this ends tonight.

BB(V/O):But the man known as "The Destroyer" has a different agenda....

(Cut to:Prerecorded comments from Inferno)

DI:Prey..... You feel this will give you advantage..... that my cycle is not yet complete.... but all you are doing is speeding the inevitable.... Your Light of Dawn has been taken from you.... all that remains is my revenge.....

(Screen fades to a montage of both men, from different points in their careers)

BB(V/O):I think it's safe to say..... the CSWA will be hosting a war tonight.

(The scene fades to 25,000 plus SCREAMING fans on their feet, anxiously awaiting the beginning of the card. A good number of fans are wearing T-Shirts that read "AWA" and "BWL" on them, as well as the heavy presence of CSWA merchandise... The scene cuts to Bill Buckley and Stan Parsons in the announcing area....)

BB:HELLO BALTIMORE!!!!!! My name is Bill Buckley, and I'm joined this week by Stan Parsons! We've got a night FULL of CSWA action, as we'll see the final first round matches of the Greensboro Title World Cup, as well as The Eliminator getting his long awaited rematch with the CSWA US Champion, "Good God" Kevin Powers!

SP:That's not what these people want to see, and you know it, Buckley. This is the FIRST TIME since signing with the CSWA that "Daredevil" Mark Vizzack has come back to his hometown, and what better way then to see him against his greatest enemy, Dante Inferno!

BB:Kicking things off tonight will be Apocalypse taking on Disco Stu. Apocalypse is already 2 and 0 in his bracket, he could move on to Round 2 EASILY tonight. Let's get to ringside.

BB:This was a no-contest from the beginning. Apocalypse poured it on heavy from the second the bell rang and didn't let up ONCE. He nearly got disqualified for tossing Stu over the top rope, but Stu held on and fired back, slingshotting himself back into the ring with a flying clothesline. The comeback was short lived, however, as Apocalypse countered with a chokeslam and hit the Seventh Seal at the 3 minute mark, scoring the easy three count. After the match, two men in military uniforms verbally berated Apocalypse as he was returning to the backstage. He grabbed them by the throats and chokeslammed them onto the guardrail! Preliminary reports from the medics stated that Sgt. Stalker and Sgt. Chenoski suffered severe neck injuries and will be spending some time in ICU.

SP:Apocalypse takes Bracket A easily. I don't think that was much of a surprise, just like it won't be much of a surprise who he's going to wrestle at Elvis Lives XI.

BB:Nemesis has already won Bracket B except for the formality of beating HBK 2000. Right now, however, we've got the other Bracket A match, as God's Protege takes on The Ego Buster.

SP:This match had better end quickly.

BB:Why do you say that?

SP:Well, think about it. Apocalypse has already won the bracket, so the match isn't FOR anything, and face it, Bill. These fans want to see Mark Vizzack.

BB:I can't argue with that. Let's get to ringside.

BB:This was a low-energy match, to say the least. The fans were chanting "BOOOORING" throughout the entire thing, and it was definitely taking a toll on the wrestlers. They missed moves, didn't make any attempt to excite the crowd, and basically didn't look as though they cared. God's Protege mercifully ended it after ten minutes with a spike piledriver.

SP:Can I wake up yet?

BB:Much as I hate to do it, I'm, afraid I have to agree. Merritt and Thomas will have to take some measures here. If two wrestlers don't wrestle their heart out, they'd better have attractive valets or CS gets rid of 'em.

SP:So THAT'S what happened to Elite Domination.

BB:You said it..... NOT me.

BB:In the first of four matches involving The Elimination Squad, Mysterious looked to pull to 2-1 in his bracket, but he had an uphill battle, facing off against the tough guy of the CORPORATION, Randall Jaminson. It started off evenly matched, but Jaminson used his strength and "less then legal" tactics to gain the advantage, but he was unable to put the big man, Mysterious, away for more then a two count. It wasn't until Mysterious reversed an Irish Whip so that Ray S. accidentally tripped up Jaminson instead of Mysterious that he was able to capitalize, catching Jaminson in a belly-to-belly suplex for the three count.

SP:Mysterious could conceivably still win this thing, but that would necessitate Nemesis being shot in the leg.

BB:I have to agree with you there, Nemesis has looked more and more impressive these past few months, and the loss to Harders in Greensboro notwithstanding, he's the perennial favorite to become the Greensboro Champion.

SP:One of them, at least. Quick question, Bill.... we've already seen Apocalypse win his bracket... we'll most likely see Nemesis take Bracket B.... Who do you like for Brackets C and D?

BB:It's hard to say. In Bracket C, it's down to Rap Man or Eli Flair, who are both 2 and 0 and will decide it tonight. Crippler and Vito Corleone are both 0 and 2, so they're eliminated. Page Michaels gets a bye tonight, so HE'S eliminated. Aaron Douglas is the only one in the bracket who has won a match so far, though he's only got a two point lead over his opponent tonight, Enforcer.

SP:Bill?

BB:Stan?

SP:Did you need to go through ALL of that to say that you have no idea?

BB:....Point taken. Let's get to the ring.

BB:This was a non-match. HBK2000 had absolutely NO offense, and Nemesis essentially had a field day, warming up for his match with Apocalypse at Elvis Lives. He ended it in a little under eight minutes with the Scorpion Deathlock, putting him into the second round, one step closer to the gold!

SP:We've got one match set for Round 2 at Elvis Lives, as Apocalypse will take on Nemesis in the second round. Coming up next... hold on, what's that?

Rudy Seitzer(Through the headset):We've got a situation backstage, switch the camera shot!

(Cut to:The backstage area, Poison Ivy and The Rap Master are SCREAMING at each other. A wooden chair is smashed to splinters between them as Eli Flair, Rap Man, and several security are keeping them separated.)

RS:Folks, the tension back here is getting bad..... something is going to happen here tonight.

(Cut to:The announcers)

BB:Well, that may be the second-most anticipated match of the night. Fans, I'm told that the Eli Flair/Rap Man match is going to be postponed, pending a calming of some tempers back there. As soon as the respective managers are let out of their dressing rooms, we will of course bring you that matchup. Right now, however, is the other Bracket C match, Crippler and Vito Corleone.

SP:These two were something of a disappointment in this tournament, though I think Crippler showed something in both losses to Flair and Rap Man... He's not going away, Bill. He could very well be wearing some CSWA gold down the line.

BB:This match was hard fought from the get-go, as Crippler tried unsuccessfully time and time again to catch Corleone in his finisher, "The Crippling Plunge," but it wasn't working. He tried a new plan, abandoning his usual technically sound game plan and simply try to beat Corleone into submission. It almost worked, until Corleone countered an irish whip with a small package, nearly taking the match. Losing patience, Crippler almost immediately caught Corleone with an impact DDT for the three-count.

SP:Five matches down in the final round, and two to go. Are we ready for Eli Flair and Rap Man yet?

BB(Holding a finger to the mic in his ear):No, not yet. We're gonna bypass that one right now and head to the ring for Enforcer and Aaron Douglas!

BB: This was, to date, the hardest fought of ALL the first round matches! Douglas came down his masked "El Volcano" gimmick.   Douglas tried to keep Enforcer off balance with his speed and technical ability, but Enforcer kept at it and LEVELED Douglas with a clothesline, followed by a powerbomb that nearly put a hole through the mat! Douglas showed what he's made of, however, and kicked out at the last possible moment. It was at this moment that "The Hard One" Randy Harders appeared from the curtain with a microphone, making some VERY explicit comments toward Enforcer and his interference in the Harders/Nemesis match at Showtime! Enforcer called Harders out to come down to the ring, but was interrupted by Douglas going for a quick roll-up and pin! Aaron Douglas has quietly won his bracket and advanced to the semi- finals of the Greensboro Tournament!

SP:Impressive showing by both men, but Harders distracted Enforcer JUST long enough to cost him the match! I have a feeling we may see Harders and Enforcer lock up in Memphis, or, even at ELVIS LIVES itself!

BB:We could very well see that! Fans, we're one match away from the semi-finals of the Greensboro World Cup! Here's how things look so far! It'll be Apocalypse taking on Nemesis, and "Hot Stuff" Aaron Douglas taking on either Rap Man or Eli Flair!

SP:Speaking of which, are we ready for that one yet?

BB:I'm not sure... let's head to Rudy Seitzer, outside Poison Ivy's dressing room!

(Cut to:Rudy Seitzer in front of a room marked "Poison IVY." Loud voices are heard on the inside.)

RS:Hello, Bill and Stan. As you can see, or better yet, hear, Poison Ivy is still in her dressing room. We're not sure exactly what sort of altercation took place between her and Rap Master, but we DO know that it's taken Eli Flair, Hornet, AND Randy Harders' manager Mrs. Beyer to calm her down to THIS point. Standing with me now is CSWA Vice-President and Acting Co-Commisioner Mark Vizzachero, with the official word on things. Mark?

(VP Vizzy comes into view)

Vizz: Acting Co-Commisioner Radman and myself, instead of delaying the card any more then it has been already, have instructed the ring crew to begin erecting the cage for the Four Way Dance between Blade, Cool Moe D, Mr. X, and TJ Knuckles. We've also decided that if the managers of Rap Man and Eli Flair are this unable to maintain a professional demeanor in the backstage, they will be CONFINED to their locker rooms during the match.

RS:Thank you, Mark. Well, fans, there it is, the final word on the Rap Man/Eli Flair situation. While we're waiting for the cage to be erected, Marvin Parsons and his tech staff have put together a little history of the Mark Vizzack/Dante Inferno match. Most of the fans in attendance may know the history, but here's how it all started, for the people at home.

(Cut to:AWA Universal Soldiers '97 in the AWA Arena, right here in Baltimore. Dante Inferno and Silky Rose are standing in the middle of the ring, being awarded the AWA World title.)

BB(Narrating):It was at Universal Soldiers, the Winter Wrestling Festival of the Athletic Wrestling Alliance where the AWA World Champion, "Daredevil" Mark Vizzack, was set to defend against the Number One Contender and International Champion, Dante Inferno, who was wrestling under the name "The Nightmare Maker." Undefeated since stepping foot in the AWA, everyone predicted that Vizzack's title reign would end. However.... the match came, and Vizzack didn't even show up.

(Cut to:President Collman, in the middle of the ring)

Collman:In lieu of a World Title match, as the Champion did not bother to show up, every fan in attendance tonight will receive a FULL REFUND.

BB(V/O):But little did the AWA fans know, Vizzack was in Greensboro, North Carolina, conducting some very special business at the Green Valley Home for the Mentally Deranged. And fourteen days later.....

(Cut to:AWA WrestlePalooza '97, and "The Rematch.")

Collman:Nightmare and Silky Rose are in the ring, and they are anxiously awaiting their challenger, the former champion Mark Vizzack.

Russell:Vizzack alluded to something of a surprise.... what could he mean?

(The screen fades to Vizzack emerging from the curtain with Sunshine Del Payne on his arm... and to a montague of scenes from the match.)

BB(V/O):The date was May 24th, 1997. It was revealed that Vizzack had gone to Green Valley to attempt to be given jurisdiction over Ms. Del Payne, a childhood friend. So it came to pass that, on this day, her nineteenth birthday, she was treated to Mark Vizzack scoring the pinfall whose repercussions caused wakes in the Baltimore area regional promotions to this day.

(Cut to:Vizzack on the outside of the ring, Sunshine whispering something in his ear. Vizzack then reenters the ring, hits Inferno with a dropkick to the knee, following with an attempt at a bodyslam, but Inferno tosses him over the top. Mark holds on to the rope, however, and catches him with a flying bodypress that puts the first "loss" to date on his record.)

BB(V/O):The three-count heard round the world immediately made Vizzack a hometown hero, as well as a man who overcame the seemingly impossible, to defeat The Nightmare Maker. But that was just the beginning... Inferno made it his life's goal to destroy Mark Vizzack, the only man, as he put it, to "escape his destiny of destruction."

(Cut to: A montage of events in which Inferno and Silky Rose crash Vizzack's matches and make life hell for both him and Sunshine.)

But nothing could've prepared them for what happened next.

(Cut to: The last AWA card ever, as Vizzack just defeated his tag team partner and #1 Contender Julius Kessler, only for Inferno to crash the ring, put Vizzack through a table, drop Kessler back first on a guardrail, and hold Sunshine up for Silky Rose to "draw" on with a straight razor.)

BB(V/O):These two represent the worst fears in the mind of Mark Vizzack and Sunshine Del Payne.... and God only knows what we'll see tonight.

(Cut to:The ring, surrounded by a steel cage.)

SP:This match with Vizzack and Inferno is going to be brutal and merciless. On, I believe, BOTH parts. Allright, we're ready for the Four Corners match. This is an Elimination Match, continuing until everyone has been eliminated. Two men in the ring at a time, you can tag out to anyone you want.

 (Introductions - hey, everyone uses "Du Hast," right? <G>)

BB: Knuckles and Cool Moe D started thing off for this one, and were BRUTAL to each other. Blade and Mr. X seemed smart enough to stay out of it for a little bit, but everyone ended up trading shots with each other. An interesting side effect of this is the fact that referee Patrick Young ruled EVERY one of those punches was a legal tag, so there were fairly consistent tags. The first fall didn't take place for nearly fifteen minutes, but it was Blade who covered TJ Knuckles for the three count after a second "Guillotine Blade." Not wasting any time in the matter, Mr. X and Cool Moe D both rushed the ring putting the boots to the fatigued Blade. Undaunted, however, he sent X into the cage and hit Moe with a HARD right hand. X recovered quickly, however, and rolled Blade up from behind. With Cool Moe D holding his legs, Mr. X pinned Blade. These two men shook hands, then Mr. X promptly hit Cool Moe D with a clothesline, leveling him. Mr. X hooked the tights for the pinfall, winning the match. Afterward, however, while Mr. X was returning to the backstage, Blade met him in the aisle, backed by Dante Inferno! The crowd was on their FEET booing Inferno, but he and Blade essentially beat the tar out of Mr. X! Security had to separate the three men, as well as escort them to their respective locker rooms.

SP:That was a good match to watch, Bill. It was fast-paced, and highlighted four hot up-and-comers. Now, Bill....

BB:Yes?

SP:Is it finally time to see Rap Man/Eli Flair?

BB:Rudy?

RS(Through microphone):Good to go!

BB:It's about time.... let's head to the ring.

RJ:The following contest, scheduled for one fall, is the FINAL MATCH of the Greensboro World Cup First Round!!!!

(Cue Up:Rap Man's Music)

Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by his manager, The Rap Master, representing The Elimination Squad.... RAP MAN!!!!!

(Rap Man heads down to ringside, flanked by Rap Master. They both look severely agitated, and ready to take the bracket.)

BB:Rap Master looks like that incident with Poison Ivy in the back got to him... I hope he'll be able to contain himself and let these two men wrestle.

RJ:AND HIS OPPONENT....

(Cue Up:"The Dope Show" - Marilyn Manson)

Accompanied to the ring by his manager, Poison Ivy.... "Total Elimination" ELI FLAIR!!!!!

(Eli and Ivy come through the curtain. Ivy's eyes are locked on Rap Master, filled with nothing but daggers. She isn't carrying her Singapore Cane; perhaps it was confiscated by the security team?)

BB:Speaking of an individual who needs to control themselves.... Poison Ivy may be the worst we've EVER seen in that field!

SP:She's got a bad attitude, Bill, and in her defense, she's had to deal with a lot of crap since she and Eli Flair debuted in the CSWA four years ago. Well, it looks like we're ready to start this one off! Aaron Douglas is no doubt looking intently at this match.

BB:Definitely. He knows that he has to face off against whoever wins it... and neither man will be a pushover. All right, Flair and Rap Man lock up, and Rap Man is SHOVED into the ropes! Stan, Eli's got the size and strength advantage.

SP:He does, though I'd have to say that Rap Man is a fair bit quicker. They go to lock up again, but Rap Man ducks out and hits a thrust kick to Flair's side! Bill, I'm not sure it did anything more then anger him!

BB:Flair just stares at him.... Stan, if Rap Man hasn't done his homework, he may walk out on the short end of the stick. Eli Flair has one weakness, and it's one that NOBODY has exploited so far!

SP:Not true... Eliminator knew about Flair's knees, and hooked him into the Elimination LegLock at first opportunity bat in Greensboro, but Flair knew the back door in that one.

BB:That's something I'm anxious to see.... Eliminator's LegLock is a modified Scorpion, same as Eli's former submission hold, "The Eliminator." I'm looking forward to see how the LegLock compares with Flair's 'new' finisher, the Total Elimination, which is a modified STF.

SP:They lock up again, and Rap Man is pushed to the corner! Worthington calls for the break.... RAP MAN with a SLAP to the face! Flair is irate!

BB:And dangerous! Eli has Rap Man by the throat.... CHOKESLAM! Rap Man back to his feet, ducks a clothesline attempt, THRUST KICK TO THE FACE! Flair goes down! The cover, 1...............NO! Not even a two count!

SP:This match started less then five minutes ago, Bill. Neither of these men will go down yet. Flair back to his feet, another kick by Rap Man, NO! Flair grabbed his foot with both hands, and a KICK to the ankle of Rap Man! And now Flair locks in a side headlock!

BB:This is good, basic wrestling on Flair's part.... it's what made him a star. Rap Man sends Flair into the ropes..... reversal..... Rap Man goes for a flying bodypress! The cover, 1...............2.......NO! Flair kicks out. Rap Man with a fist to the stomach, and a DDT! Stan, Rap Man has been impressive thus far!

SP:Indeed he has. If Rap Man takes it here, he joins a VERY select company of people who have defeated Flair without any form of interference, including Deacon and Steven Flair, for all you history buffs.

BB:Rap Man climbs to the top.... DROPS the elbow on Eli! The cover, 1...................2....................NO! Flair kicked out. Rap Man pulls him to his feet, enzuigiri to the back of the head puts him back down! Rap Man climbing again....

SP:But Flair is climbing back to his feet VERY quickly as well! He climbs the other side of the turnbuckle, and he and Rap Man are firing punches!

BB:This could be a mistake for Rap Man. I don't think he can match power with Flair.

SP:Looks that way, Bill. Flair gets the upper hand.... he hooks Rap Man's head....

BB:SUPERPLEX to the canvas! The cover, 1....................2......................3!NO! NO! Rap Man proves himself to be made of the same durable material as Eli Flair is! Both men are on the canvas, but Flair is getting back to his feet!

SP:So is Rap Man. They're both to their feet at the same time. Rap Man with a thrust to the throat!

BB:And another! NO! Flair grabbed his hand and pulled him into an armbar! What's he doing?

SP:FLAIR SENDS RAP MAN INTO THE CORNER BY THE ARM! Ingenius move by Flair. He's on the second rope, and he's firing the punches!

BB:The crowd counts along! 1......2.......3..........4.........5..........6.............7..........NO! Rap Man hooks Flair's legs, and hits an inverse Atomic Drop! Stan, this match could still go either way!

SP:Flair is down on his knees, and Rap Man once again climbs the ropes!

BB:Rap Man is ready to come off the top... Flying Bodypress! NO! NO! Flair caught him! KNEEBREAKER!

SP:He's not wasting any more time, Bill, he's going for it!

BB:Indeed he is, Stan! Eli Flair has locked Rap Man in the Total Elimination! He can't reach the ropes! I don't think he has any choice but to submit!

SP:Never say never, here comes The Rap Master! Oh... never mind.

BB:Rap Master was about to enter the ring, but Poison Ivy hit him with a headbutt! IS that it? YES! Worthington calls for the bell, I believe Rap Man submitted! But Flair isn't letting up!

SP:Uh-oh....

BB:Ivy is in the ring, and she's got the mic! What's she doing?

Ivy(In the ring):Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of this match, by OUTRIGHT SUBMISSION, is "Total Elimination" Eli Flair! But, just so there's no argument, our friend Rappy here will submit one more time, for ALL TO HEAR!!!

BB:This is a little much.... Poison Ivy holding the mic to Rap Man's face... let's look at the camera shot.... I think Rap Man is out!

SP:He is, Bill. Rap Man has lost consciousness! It happens, your body can only absorb so much pain before it shuts down! Flair finally lets up, and Worthington is yelling something at him!

BB:I think he just hit Eli and Ivy with another fine! Rap Master is in Ivy's face now!

SP:Uh-oh, bad move.

BB:OH MY GOD! ELI FLAIR JUST CHOKESLAMMED REFEREE BEN WORTHINGTON! Poison Ivy has laid out Rap Master again! Now security is coming down, and Eli Flair is angry!

SP:I don't like the look of this.... Patrick Young is talking to Rhubarb about something...

RJ(On mic):Ladies and gentlemen, your attention please. The referee staff has REVERSED its decision! The winner of this match, as a result of a DISQUALIFICATION, The Rap Man!

BB:WHAT A BOMBSHELL!!!! Rap Man takes the bracket, and he'll meet Aaron Douglas in Memphis in the semi-finals of this tournament!

SP:Take a look at the ring, however. Eli Flair and Poison Ivy are walking out with their heads held high, and the winner, Rap Man, is lying facedown in a pool of his own drool. Still, a marvelous effort by both men, and it could've EASILY gone the other way.

BB:Stan, it DID go the other way.

SP:See?

BB:We'll be right back.

(Cut to ELVIS promo)

BB:Welcome back, fans. We've got two more matches tonight, first up is the REMATCH from FISH FUND XII. First, let's take a look at what exactly happened back in August.

(Cut to:FF12, and the finals for the US Title)

RHUBARB JONES: From New Waterford, Idaho..standing 6'6 and weighing in at 375 lbs! This is ELIMINATOR!!! (mixed reaction as Eliminator walks to the ring. He's got a noticeable limp. He's accompanied by Hot Scott, Rap Master, and Rap Man.)

("(Can't You) Trip Like I Do" plays)

(Music suddenly cuts off, Powers walks out with a mic in hand. Susan, Gina, and Ray S. Cornette are by his side)

KEVIN POWERS: No...no...no..no...no. It ain't goin down like this, kids. (Powers turns to a fan hanging over the security railing) You keep your mouth shut, boy! (crowd boos) No way I'm wrestling with his goons at ringside. I'm not as Dumb, as Rhubarb looks. If Merritt has dreams of the US title being around my waist, he needs to get the Golden Goofs outta here. Besides...look at the man he can hardly walk! Merritt I'll save you the trouble of coming out.... (Powers grabs the US title) He can't go, therefore forfeits. (puts mic in Rhubarb hands) Announce the NEW US champ, Jonesy!

::As Powers raises the US belt in the air, Eliminator places a forearm in the back of his head::

BILL BUCKLEY: Hot Scott, Rap Man, and the Rap Master chase Cornette and the girls out of the ring! Eliminator is all over Powers! There's been a injury to his left knee it appears. Stan, did you see it happen in the last match?

STAN PARSONS: Obviously Bill, Powers and Co. played a part in dealing him that hand. He didn't want to wrestle for the title, he wanted to have it handed to him! CORPORATION has struck once more!

::Eliminator scoops Powers up and slams him to the mat::

BILL BUCKLEY: Hate to accuse Powers of a crime he didn't commit, but it's highly likely that his prints are all over the crime scene. Eliminator's got the US belt in hand, and whips Powers repeatedly! Kevin's done nothing more than stir up a hornet's nest!

<Fast Forward to the end of the match>

 ::Eliminator leaps off the top turnbuckle, but his knee gives out::

BILL BUCKLEY: Eliminator's leg couldn't hold out! We need a doctor out here in a hurry. Powes not wasting a second, going for the figure 4!! It's hooked in!! Somebody please call for the bell, before the man's career is ended!!

::Patrick Young calls for the bell ending the match. Powers wins by submission::

BILL BUCKLEY: Eliminator didn't give, partly because I don't think he could have! Young mercifully calls for the end of the match. Kevin Powers wins the US title...tainted win albeit.

::Powers rolls outside...hugged by Gina and Susan. Ray S. kisses the belt then gives it to Kevin::

KEVIN POWERS: (looking into a camera) Good Gawd....what a night! (Powers kissed Gina)

STAN PARSONS: Like it or not, Kevin Powers is the new US champion... We shouldn't hold our breath for Merritt to overrule.

BILL BUCKLEY: Championships should be decided in the middle of the ring, not in the streets..or wherever the attack on Eliminator occurred.

(Back to ringside)

SP:Of course, we all know what happened after that. Eliminator petitioned for a rematch for MONTHS, and it finally happens, TONIGHT.

BB:Indeed..... Let's go up to Rhubarb.

RJ:The following contest is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the CSWA UNITED STATES HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE!!!!

(Cue Up:Eliminator's music)

Introducing first.... accompanied to the ring by his manager, Hot Scott, from New Waterford, Idaho, weighing in at an amazing 375 pounds.... THE ELIMINATOR!!!!

(Eliminator comes to the ring to a mixed reaction, chants of "whiner" from a few scattered fans. He looks directly into the camera and says "It's MY turn!")

BB:No leg injury this time. It'll be Eliminator and Powers, and may the best man win.

RJ:HIS OPPONENT...

(Cue up:"(Can't You) Trip Like I Do" -Filter)

Accompanied to the ring by the lovely Susan and the gorgeous Gina...

(Susan and Gina emerge from the curtain, each with a microphone)

S:Shut up, Rhubarb!

G:We'll take it from here. LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.... THE MOMENT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR!!

S:From the beautiful city of Chicago, from the GREAT STATE of Illinois,

G:He is Six foot-TEN, pounds of US Steel and Sex Appeal, he is YOUR United States Heavywight Champion, "GOOD GOD" KEVIN POWERS!!!!

(Powers emerges from the curtain, as pyros explode all around the three. HUGE Heel Pop for the US Champion, and a chant of "PLR! PLR!" can be heard over the music. Powers gives Susan a kiss.... gives Gina a kiss.... and heads for the ring.) 

BB:Well, after that entrance, we're finally ready to see a US Title rematch. These two men are vastly different, while Eliminator has the weight advantage, Powers has the height advantage. This could come into play heavily.

SP:They lock up, and it's Powers shoved into the corner! These two put on a show in Greensboro, but honestly, I think Eliminator held the advantage there.

BB:Don't underestimate Powers, though.... He'll surprise you. They lock up once more.... HEADBUTT by Powers! He follows up with a European Uppercut! Off the ropes, short-arm clothesline... NO! Eliminator ducks, and counters with a drop-toe hold! OH MY GOD! Powers' neck hits the bottom rope! Eliminator tries to go for the Leg Lock, but Powers grabs hold of the bottom rope and Patrick Young is going to call for the break!

SP:Shows Powers' presence of mind to grab the ropes.... it'll give him a little breathing room.... hey, wait a minute, what's going on here?

(HUGE Fan pop)

BB:Fans, Poison Ivy is making her way to ringside.... and she's GOT that Singapore cane this time! Eliminator and Powers are both wary of where she's headed, as are Hot Scott, Susan and Gina.

SP:They can all relax, Buckley.... she's headed for us.

(Ivy takes a seat next to Stan Parsons and puts on a headset)

BB:Um... welcome, Ivy.

IVY:Thanks, Bill, Stan.

SP:Powers and Eliminator lock up again, knee to the midsection by Powers!

IVY:F***in' referee.... Bill, you understood what Eli and I wanted to do, right?

BB:I--- um,

IVY:We just wanted Rap Man to have no excuses.... it's not like we wanted to kill him or anything.

SP:Powers sends Eliminator into the ropes, CLOTHESLINE!

IVY:A thousand f***ing dollars..... Merritt is gonna hear about this one.

BB:Powers sets up Eliminator.... BACKBREAKER! He whips him into the ropes.... backdrop... NO! Powers drops his head too soon and Eliminator hits him with a powerbomb!

IVY:Let me tell you, Bill..... I'm sick of getting screwed around with by the referees here... I'm sick of Eli being held to a different standard then the rest of the league.... and I'm f***ing sick of Eliminator and his manager filling themselves with SO much god damn bulls***!

BB:Ivy, please watch your language.

SP:Side suplex by Eliminator, the cover, 1.............2............NO! Powers kicked out! Eliminator picks him up, FACERAKE! Powers sends an elbow to Eliminator's face! And another!

IVY:Okay.

BB:Excuse me?

IVY:I'll watch my language. I'm sick of talking. It's time for some DOING.

(Ivy leaves the broadcast area)

SP:Great, Bill. Ivy's lost her mind.

BB:Stan, you know her just as well as I do. Her losing her mind has nothing to do with those around her.

SP:Be that as it may, she's now SCREAMING at Eliminator! To his credit, Eliminator is ignoring her, preferring to let Hot Scott deal with it.

BB:Powers with another right hand!

SP:IVY CANES SCOTT! Now Eliminator is going after her!

BB:Eliminator has Ivy by the shirt! NO! Powers grabs his hand before he can bring it down on her! IVY MAKES CONTACT WITH ELIMINATOR'S KNEE! Eliminator goes down!

SP:Young is EXASPERATED with Poison Ivy. He's yelling at her again! She could get another fine here, her second of the night!

BB:OH MY GOD! Ivy climbs to the ring apron, and brings that cane down ON POWERS' HEAD! He falls to the outside!

SP:Great... how's Young gonna rule this one?

BB:Ivy takes the Cane and breaks it over her knee, and she leaves the ring area for the second time tonight!

SP:Susan and Gina trying their best to get Powers back into the ring, but he's still out!

BB:Young has no real choice but to keep counting! 5.........6................7.............8........Eliminator is up, NO! His leg didn't hold! There's the bell, and Young is going to rule this a double countout! Flair and Ivy are going to be VERY unpopular with these men tonight!

SP:What do you mean? Where was Flair? I'd guess he's still brooding over the match with Rap Man.

BB:Rudy Seitzer backstage is trying to catch up with Eli Flair.... Rudy?

(Cut to:The backstage. Rudy Seitzer is nearly RUNNING to keep up with Eli Flair.)

RS:Eli! Eli!

(Eli stops)

ELI:What do you want, Rudy?

RS:Did you see what Poison Ivy just did?

ELI:Of course I did. Girl's a damn genius.

RS:What do you mean?

ELI:I just came from Merritt's skybox. He asked me to go find Ivy backstage, but as I was leaving I overheard talk of a "triangle match" for ELVIS LIVES. If the way to get both Powers AND Eliminator in the ring at the same time is to piss both of 'em off to the point where they want me as much as they want each other, so be it. Now get lost for now, I gotta find Ivy.

(Back to the ringside)

BB:Well, that's that, I suppose. It's all come down to one final match.

SP:This is the one that the fans have been waiting for. I don't think the fans want to hear us talk... let's go up to Rhubarb.

RJ:Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for our MAIN EVENT!!!

(HUGE FAN POP.... EVERYONE is on their feet)

Introducing first.... accompanied to the ring by "The Dark Angel" Silky Rose...

(Cue Up:"F***ed with a Knife" - Cannibal Corpse as the fans are uninimously BOOING)

Weighing in at 392 pounds.... "The Destroyer" DANTE INFERNO!!!!

(Flames frame the entranceway.... and suddenly explode in a cloud of smoke. When the smoke clears, Silky Rose is standing there.... Her hair is pink this week, and she is attired in a black leather bikini with spikes protruding from all over, and boots that reach just past her knees. Standing next to her is a HUGE figure in a hooded black robe that can only be Inferno.... They walk slowly to the ring, dodging garbage and shots that the fans attempt to take.... Once in the ring, Inferno throws the robe off to a HUGE explosion of pyros... and the garbage keeps coming.)

RJ(Moving off to the side of the ring to get out of their way):AND...... HIS OPPONENT!!!

(The fans are ALL on their feet and CHEERING THEIR HEADS OFF even before the song starts..... Cue Up:"Don't Tell Me (What Love Can Do)" - Van Halen)

From the GREAT CITY OF BALTIMORE..... Weighing in at 224 pounds.... "THE DAREDEVIL" MARK VIZZACK!!!!!!

(Vizzack emerges from the curtain, obviously with no Sunshine on his arm. He looks around the arena, at the fans who are giving him a standing ovation, and for the first time since Showtime in Greensboro.... he smiles. Every single fan in the arena moves as close to Vizzack as they can, hoping to get a high-five or a handshake, but only a few actually get it.... He stops at the foot of the ring.... takes off his jacket.... and takes a deep breath.....)

BB:He's nervous...

SP:Ya think?

BB:Most of the time. Vizzack steps onto the ring apron, and there's the bell! Inferno is simply standing there in the middle of the ring! What's he waiting for?

SP:Remember, Vizzack is his 'Prey.' He's stalking him.

BB:Vizzack slingshots himself into the ring... HERE COMES INFERNO! NO! Vizzack does a military roll through his legs.... DROPKICK TO INFERNO'S BACK! The big man is rocked from the start! Vizzack off the ropes.... FLYING BODYPRESS! NO! Inferno caught him in midair and THREW him into the corner!

SP:New game plan, I think. Vizzack picks himself up.... and Inferno is once again waiting for him to make a move....

BB:The fans were waiting for this one all night, but they've quieted down some now that they see.... well, what we all were expecting.... and that's what we see. On top of their rather rich history, Vizzack is also not in his best mind, as Sunshine is currently spending some time in Green Valley.

SP:Vizzack back to his feet.... the fans are getting behind him again.... THEY LOCK UP! Inferno picks Vizzack up by the SHOULDERS! HEADBUTT! And again! He drops Vizzack, and stands on his chest! The count, 1...............2......NO! Vizzack grabs his foot and twists it! Inferno loses his balance!

BB:This might be Vizzack's chance.... to the top... MOONSAULT! The cover, 1........NO!

SP:Not even a two count...

BB:Vizzack with a drop toe-hold, to a headlock! NO! Inferno simply stands up!

SP:This just got VERY good for Vizzack.... look at his positioning!

BB:Oh my... you're right! Inferno has stood up, but Vizzack simply shifted positions and he's got Inferno in a sleeper hold! Wait... Inferno is CLIMBING the turnbuckle.... WITH VIZZACK STILL ON HIS BACK!

SP:He's saying something to Silky Rose on the outside... she's setting up a table?

BB:OH MY GOD!!! INFERNO JUST DROVE HIMSELF AND VIZZACK THROUGH A TABLE FROM THE TOP ROPE!!!!! Vizzack isn't moving!

SP:Ben Worthington has stopped the count.... what is going on here?

BB:I think this match has just ended.... Inferno is up, but even HE is shaky on his feet...

SP:Here come the medics.... this is a shame. Vizzack still hasn't moved.

BB:WAIT A SECOND! Inferno is attacking the medics! He's leveled two doctors, and this is AFTER his fall! HERE COMES STEVE RADDER! HE'S SCREAMING AT INFERNO!!!

SP:Is he coming to Vizzack's aid?

BB:I don't think so... remember his comments about how Vizzack was "his" to beat up on? He hasn't had the opportunity to do so since the Battle Royal. RADDER WITH A SLAP TO INFERNO'S FACE! INFERNO GRABS HIM BY THE NECK AND LIFTS HIM OFF THE GROUND!

SP:I think he's regretting that decision right now, Buckley....

BB:I think so! HERE COMES THE REST OF PLR! But Inferno tosses... TOSSES Radder at them and they back off! Fans, we're outta time tonight, we will of course, bring you information on the condition of Mark Vizzack, as well as information on Elvis Lives XI as soon as we have it, for Rudy Seitzer and Stan Parsons, my name is Bill Buckley! Goodnight, folks!

(Cut to the staredown between PLR and Inferno..... and Vizzack, still motionless, on the shattered remains of a table..... fade to black.)
