As Lord of The Ring 9 opens, Hardcore Jay and Hardcore Jones arive at the arena.....They walk towards the entrance when all of the sudden Jay's cell phone rings.....

Hardcore Jay: Hello?......Hello..... Turn around?......Why?

All of the sudden Kaos and Platinum of Generation Elite come out of no where and attack the Hardcore Playas.....

Kaos: Good luck with your title match against the Suicide Kingz...

Platinum: Your going to need it suckas...

Beautiful red-and-green pyrotechnics explode near the entranceway and fill the inside of the arena with festive light. The roof practically pops off the place with the noise from the tens of thousands of fans in attendance as, to the television audience, the announcing voices of Mike Ixnay and Hawk Manson begin to make themselves heard.

MI: We welcome you, fans, to NEW's Lord of The Ring! And what an amazing show we have for you fans tonight.

HM: You've got that right, Mike, it's gonna be incredible! Tonight's main event pits fellow oWo teammates Trent Raven against The Man They Call GRENDEL, and it will be for the NEW World Heavyweight Championship!

The camera shifts focus to the announcing table...

MI: Hello everybody, I'm Mike Ixnay, and alongside me is my broadcast partner, Hawk Manson. And this is the 9th edition of Lord Of The Ring!

HM: I can't wait, Mike, this tournament has shaped up to be a classic.

MI: Other than our main event, fans, we'll have the semi's and the finals of the Lord of The Ring Tournament.

HM: The four men left in this thing are tremendos wrestlers. You've got Barry Savage, Jason Wylde, Eklispe, and Paul Richards. Anyone of these men could walk out with the title of Lord Of The Ring tonight Mike.

MI: Also tonight, ladies and gentlemen, the NEW tag team titles will be up for grabs as The Suicide Kingz take on the champions The Hardcore Playas.

HM: This fued has been heating up as of late, and I don't think the war will be over between these two teams even after there match up here tonight.
MI: And with that in mind... Lets go to our first matchup!

Platinum and Kaos walk up to Shawn Stryker as he is leaving his locker room. It looks as though SBK is about to be jumped, and he braces himself for a fight, but Kaos extends his hand.

Kaos: I know you might be somewhat worried about whoever has followed you here and is stalking you, but we wanted you to know Generation Elite has your back, so I wouldn't worry about it.

Platinum: Yeah, it's probably some dumb ass from the oWo anyways. We got you covered.

SBK: Thanks guys. I appreciate it.

Platinum and Kaos leave as SBK rolls his eyes and shakes his head.

SBK: What, me worried? And about someone who doesn't have the guts to show his face? And they think they can protect me?

The camera cuts back to the arena.

NEW CrusierWeight Championship
Eklispe (c) vs. Shawn Stryker

HM: Well we are about to see the NEW Cruiserweight Champion Eklipse defend his newly won title against Shawn Stryker.

MI: This is Stryer's first match here in the NEW Era. We will finally get a chance to see what this kid has to offer.

Announcer: Ladies and Gentlemen this match is for the NEW CrusierWeight Championship.

"Cat Scratch Fever" by Ted Nugent blares over the p.a. as the Resurrection crowd awaits the long-awaited return of Shawn Stryker. Moments pass but then finally as fireworks shoot all around the entrance area Texas' own Strike-Back Kid SBK emerges to a thunderous ovation and flashbulbs. Shawn holds his arm up high in a makes a fist. He is wearing a long electric blue tights on the right leg reads "Stryker" all the way down and on the left leg reads "SBK". Up high on the Tron is SBK's initials flashing "SBK, SBK" and as stills of SBK's NEW-tron appearance on Metal is shown. Shawn walks ever so confidently to the ring to many cheers from the crowd as well as loud screams and cheers from the women in the audience. SBK enters the ring and dances around before posing mid-ring and more fireworks go off

MI: SBK looks better than ever and this crowd is seeing a moment many have waited a very long time to witness! What a reaction from this partisan Texas crowd for Shawn Stryker!

HM: I can't hear! Even I have to admit this Shawn Stryker has got the crowd tonight behind him 100%.

MI: Everyone knows the story by now of how SBK has been on the sidelines for over half a year due to management problems in the previous organization he was in. One of Wrestling's top stars in the game on the side-lines for half a year NOW coming back full-time and its in a NEW ring!

"Crawlin" by Linken Park begins to blar across the loud speakers.....As Miss Kim makes her way out from behind the curtain...She stops and turns towards the curtain and points as Eklispe walks up behind here....Eklipse has the NEW CruiserWeight title around his waste as he makes his way to the ring....

HM: We are underway as Eklipse goes right for Shawn Stryker.

MI: Well Eklipse looks like he just like I said wants this .. he won this title not lonmg ago and wants to hold onto it.

HM: You never said that .. you said Stryker didn't have wehat it took .. big difference , and they are now in the ring .. good job by the NEW Official to get control of this one.

MI: I agree .. too many times they can't get control and Eklipse just tossed Stryker off the ropes and Stryker grabbed the ropes .

HM: Eklipse has his head down and Stryker lept into the air and came down hard on the head of Eklipse with an elbow , a good move by Shawn Stryker.

MI: Tides have turned very quickly in this one and Stryker is not letting up .. he pulls Eklipse up by the hair and another elbow to the face of Eklipse and another and another !! Oh my !

HM: Good job by the challenger .. Eklipse is on the mat holding his face .. Stryker reaches down for another pull of the hair and EklipsE is faking it !! Eklipse grabs the ankle of Stryker and pulls him down on his back .. Eklipse is on top of him laying some very quick rights into the face of Styker.

MI: Roll over by Stryker and Stryker rolls off and gets to his feet ready for Eklipse … Eklipse gets to his feet and clothesline by Shane Styker that sends Eklipse reeling .. NOOO !

HM: You better say that .. Eklipse grabbed the arm of Stryker and he hops up into a Cruisifix and drop down by Stryker knocks the wind out of Eklipse.

MI: What a heads up move by both men .. Stryker is wiping the sweat from his brow and the fans are on their feet .. they love this quick action and Stryker walks around Eklipse who is on his knees now and eyeing him as he paces.

HM: Eklipse is up now and they lock up .. collar and elbow , go behind by Stryker , Eklipse reaches down for a leg but Stryker maneuvers to avoid the grab .. and Eklpise slams an elbow into the head of Stryer.

MI: Both men are giving it here all .. Stryker is looking stunned and Eklipse leaps into the air and savate kick to the face !! Styker is down !!

HM: Eklispe is going up top. He is calling for the missile drop kick. He goes for it but Shawn moves out of the way!

MI: Eklipse is stunned. Shawn picks up Eklipse and throws him into the ropes.

HM: Kick Back....Shawn Stryker has given some sweet chin music to Eklipse.....He goes for the cover....One.....Two....Three...

MI: I thought this crowd was loud at the start of this match but what a finish and what a return victory for The Strike Back Kid Shawn Stryker, A sucessful comeback as well as The NEW Cruiserweight Champion!

HM: Maybe we should rename him the Come-Back Kid?!?

Shawn Stryker is handed his newly won Cruiserweight Title by the referee as we see Eklipse roll out of the ring and head towards the back. SBK drops the NEW Cruiserweight belt down and pose bends down and flexes posing mid-ring for the loud Fort Worth,Texas crowd.

MI: Indeed this is a moment these fans here in Fort Worthm Texas and a viewing audience around the world will remember for a long time to come.

HM: Very unlike Generation Elite and Eklipse to not attack an opponent after such an important loss. The hopes of Eklipse and Elite going undefeated at Lord Of Ring IX have been dashed.

MI: I think Eklipse is just happy to have been a part of such as great match and is looking more forward to possibly capuring a bigger belt and with a Lord Of Ring tourney win an eventual NEW World Title shot.

HM: You think Eklipse just laid down for SBK I don't see it that way.

Shawn Stryker begins to exit the ring with his newly won NEW Cruiserweight Championship to a standing ovation.

MI: Oh no I'm not saying that at all, SBK fought hard all the way up to and including since signing here in NEW. Most definatly a hard earned win and even though he's a degenerate Eklipse is aware and respectful of that.

HM: I thought Generation Elite only respected their mothers and themselves.

MI: That's certainly true. What a win and a return for The Strike-Back Kid Shawn Stryker

HM: What the hell is this? Generation Elite is storming the ring. They are all attacking SBK!!!

MI: How sick is this? Here comes Shane Stylez. It looks like he is here to save SBK!!!

HM: Generation Elite hand him a t-shirt. He puts it on!!! Styles has joined NEW and Generation Elite in his debut!!

MI: Here comes the oWo! They storm the ring and Generation Elite run out like a bunch of wounded dogs!!!

HM: Trent helps Shawn up, but Shawn pulls away from Trent. Warlock and Mikey look ready to jump him!!

MI: Trent motions to leave. Warlock pushes Trent, but Trent DDTs him in the ring! Trent is leaving.

HM: The rest of oWo is leaving too. En Fuego and Mikey are carrying Warlock Hall off. Trent is staring down SBK.

MI: Well, SBK is returning the favor. Fans, we gotta go backstage!

NEW Hardcore Championship
Paul "The Power" Richards (c) vs. House Of Pain

MI: Hawk, it's time for the NEW Hardcore Title match between Paul Richards and House of Pain. Your take?

HM: It's interesting that this is HOP's first match back in the NEW...and its a title shot. Oh well. Richards isn't your typical hardcore champ, as that's not his style. He is old school, concentrating on wearing down his opponent and picking a spot on the body and beating the crap outta his opponent. I've known Richards since 1997 back in the ICW, and I know what he is capable of.

MI: Richards knows quite a few high-impact manuevers, as well. As for HOP......

HM: I've seen what HOP can do in the ICW, NEW, and especially the IWA. He can straight-up brawl, and he is very unpredictable when there are weapons around.

MI: You think Richards can concentrate during this match when there are men out to literally kill him?

HM: Even though Richards is an accomplished veteran, I don't think that anyone can block out getting shot at....

MI: I agree. This match is the first of what could be a three-match night for the undefeated Richards.

"Self Esteem" by the Offspring plays as House of Pain makes his way to the ring, dragging behind him two garbage cans filled with weapons. The crowd pops for him.

MI: He's come prepared for this match!

House of Pain sets the cans at ringside and jumps into the ring. "Cat Scratch Fever" by Ted Nugent plays as the NEW Hardcore champ Paul Richards comes out with Boomer Karr.

MI: HOP and Karr are having a statedown. There is no love lost between these two. Richards enters the ring and is staring intently at HOP.

HM: HERE THEY GO!!

MI: Richards and HOP run towards each other and they are in a collar and elbow tie-up. Richards backs HOP into the corner. Richards with a knee to the gut. HOP rakes him in the eyes and grabs his head and rakes Richards' face across the top rope! Pain punches Richards in the kidney area. Now HOP has Richards in the corner and is choking him with a foot to the throat. HOP is delivering hard lefts and rights on Richards.

HM: Wow, somebody is actually taking it to Richards! HOP is showing no signs of rust from his long layoff.

MI: HOP whips Richards into the ropes and catches him with a fist to the gut. HOP comes off the ropes with a swinging neckbreaker. Quick cover...1....2...kick out. Pain is rubbing his elbow across Richards' forehead. HOP pulls Richards up and whips him in....Richards ducks a clothesline....OOOH! Richards with a shoulder, knocking Pain down. Now Richards is on one knee, recovering from HOP's earlier onslaught. Richards pulls Pain up and whips him in and catches him....fall-away slam! Richards bounces off of the ropes and delivers a leg drop to the back of HOP's head.

HM: This is wear we see Richards starting to wear down HOP.....

MI: You're right, as Richards has HOP in a front facelock, cutting off his air supply. For a hardcore title match, Hawk, there has been zero weapons used.

HM: And that is what Richards' game plan is.

MI: Richards has HOP up to his feet now. He has HOP up...slingshot suplex! Cover...1...2...kick out. Richards pulls HOP up and whips him again....sidewalk slam! Richards off of the ropes again...another legdrop. Richards pulls HOP up and throws him through the ropes to the outside.

HM: There's Boomer!

MI: Boomer is kicking away at HOP on the outside! This is a two-on-one situation! Richards jumps out of the ring and pulls HOP up...HOP WITH A LOW BLOW! Richards staggers back...HOP is up and clobbers Boomer to the ground with a hard right hand. HOP grabs a chair off of the timekeeper and hurls it at Richards, hitting him in the head with the opened chair!

HM: Richards is in danger now!

MI: HOP grabs the mic chord and wraps it around Richards' neck, trying to choke the life out of the hardcore champ. Now HOP stomps right across Richards' throat. HOP goes over to his two cans o' plunder and empties the both of them! Weapons are all over the place!

HM: What does he have?

MI: HOP has a Lite Brite! He smashes it over Richards' head! My God, the impact! HOP rolls a busted-open Richards back into the ring. HOP throws both steel cans into the ring, along with some weapons. HOP grabs a lid and climbs to the top rope. Richards is up to his feet, and HOP flies off of the top and smashes Richards with the trash can lid!

HM: OUCH!

MI: HOP covers Richards...1...2...new champ!....no! Shoulder up! Richards got his shoulder up in the nick of time!

HM: Wow! Richards was oh so close to losing his championship and his unbeaten streak! HOP pulls Richards up and whips him into the corner. HOP picks up a trash can and charges in towards Richards....

HM: OH YEAH!

MI: Richards got his boot up, kicking the steel can in HOP's face! HOP staggers back...Richards charges and clotheslines him down to the mat! Richards crawls over and covers HOP...1...2...shoulder up! Richards is slowly getting to his feet. He has HOP by the legs...slingshot into the corner! HOP staggers back again.....OOOH! Richards levels him in the back of the head with a can!

HM: So much for Richards not using any weapons!

MI: Richards pulls HOP up and whips him into the ropes...HOTSHOT! HOP's neck and head snapped violently over the top rope! Now Richards pulls HOP back up and picks him up and sets him on the top rope. Richards is on the second rope, trying to set HOP up for a superplex. HOP rakes Richards in the eyes...

HM: NICE!

MI: HOP WITH A TORNADO DDT ON A GARBAGE CAN ON RICHARDS! Where did he find the strength to do that? Both men are lying in the ring, exhausted....

HM: HOP managed to pull out whatever fortitude he had left in that battered body. HOP slowly gets to his feet and reaches into his pocket....

MI: OH NO!!

HM: DEAR LORD!

MI: He got a syringe! House of Pain got a syringe!

HM: It must be one of the ones he pulled out of that dumpster earlier this week!

MI: Who knows where that's been?! HOP is waiting for Richards to get up.....Boomer is on the apron! HOP spots him and turns around!

HM: HE IS CHARGING WITH THAT SYRINGE!

MI: Boomer gets out of harm's way....RICHARDS FROM BEHIND WITH A HANDICAPPED PARKING SIGN!

HM: That'll leave a mark!

MI: The impact of that sign to the back of HOP's head sends HOP over the top to the outside. Richards collapses in the ring. HOP may be knocked out cold! Boomer pulls HOP up and rolls him back into the ring. Boomer is encouraging Richards to get up and pin HOP....

HM: What a match!

MI: Richards crawls over and drapes his arm over HOP....1....2....SHOULDER UP?! HOW IN THE HELL?!

HM: Believe it! This House of Pain is a tough character!

MI: This is a far cry from when he had the cross dresser gimmick! Richards is on his knees, in disbelief over his inability to put HOP away. Richards grabs HOP and pulls him up. He has him in position in the corner......

HM: He may be going for the running Razor's Edge.....

MI: HUH?! Richards drops HOP and rolls out of the ring. He goes under the ring and drags a table out! He slides the table in the ring and leans it in the corner opposite of HOP!

HM: Richards must be going to drive HOP through that table!

MI: Richards goes back over to HOP......HOP pulls out a small chain from his jeans and nails Richards with it! Richards staggers back....HOP snaps his head down.....

HM: HOP is going to give Richards a running powerbomb through that table!

MI: I dose of Richards' own medicine!

HM: BOOMER?!

MI: Boomer Karr is in the ring and he has a fire extinguisher! HE SPRAYS HOP IN THE FACE WITH IT!

HM: That's a REAL extinguisher!

MI: The foam stuff is everywhere! HOP drops Richards just as he was about to start the running powerbomb! Richards is slowly getting up to his feet. He has HOP up.........

HM: YEAH! MI: RICHARDS WITH A RUNNING RAZOR'S EDGE THROUGH THE TABLE! Welcome to next week, HOP! Richards slides HOP back towards the middle of the ring and covers him....1...2...3!

HM: Richards retains and stays undefeated in his return run in the NEW!

MI: WITH MAJOR HELP FROM BOOMER KARR! Just when it looks like HOP was on the verge of capturing the NEW Hardcore title in his return match, Boomer Karr turned the tide and got revenge on HOP for attacking him last Monday!

HM: Karr is helping Richards out of the ring and hands him his title. The two look at HOP laying in the middle of the ring and laugh.

MI: Mark my words, Richards is a marked man...by his kidnappers, by the men who tried to gun him down, and now by HOP!

NEW Intercontinental Championship
Hardcore Jay (c) vs. Nicole Vespillo

MI: Okay guys, it's now time for the Intercontinental title to be put up for grabs.

HM: And this might just be Hardcore Jay's biggest challenge yet. He's held the title for about two months now, and he's had a great run.

LN: Enough, LET'S GET TO THE RING!

"One" by Metallica starts up and some of the fans cheer while the other half sit there because they have no idea who this guy is

Announcer: This match is scheduled for one fall, and it is for the NEW Intercontinental Championship. Making his way down the aisle, from Albany, New York and weighting in at three hundred and twenty pounds, Nicholae-VESPILLO!

Vespillo slowly walks down the aisle and then slides inside the ring

MI: What do you know about this guy Hawk?

HM: To tell you the truth Mike I have no idea but look at the size of this guy.

LN: No doubt, Hardcore Jay is going to have to work hard to beat this guy tonight.

IT'S TIME TO DO SOME DAMAGE

"Enter Sandman" by Metallica starts to play and the fans cheer and begin to sing the song as Hardcore Jay makes his way out of the curtain with Thunderbird Al by his side

Hardcore Jay makes his way down to the ring and slides inside looking at Vespillo. Jay then takes off his title and hands it to Al

MI: What an ovation for the Hardcore Icon!

LN: But look at Vespillo, the height of this man is unbelievable.

HM: AND HE'S NOT WAITING FOR JAY ANY LONGER!

MI: The bell has sounded and Vespillo has just attacked Jay from behind, clubbing the back.

HM: Vespillo takes Jay and tosses him to the ropes, Jay comes back and Vespillo takes him down with a big clothesline almost taking his head off. Vespillo not even making the pin picks him back up and tosses him to the ropes again. Jay bounces off AND VESPILLO LIFTS HIM HIGH UP AND DROPS him down in a flapjack.

MI: Hardcore Jay in a little bit of pain now as Vespillo makes the cover 1…2… and Jay kicks out of it.

LN: I told you Jay would be in for a long night. And he's got that TLC match to think about later on.

HM: That's true. The best thing for Jay to do is to beat Vespillo as quick as possible.

MI: Vespillo now has Jay and he tosses him into the turnbuckle. Vespillo slowly walking over to him AND NOW STARTS TO CHOKE HIM WITH HIS BOOT!

HM: The referee finally is able to get him off the champion now but Vespillo just pushes the referee aside and starts to kick the Hardcore Icon in the mid section. Vespillo lifts him up now and gives him a chop to the throat. Vespillo now picks Jay up in a body slam and OH NO!

MI: He just draped the Hardcore Icon on the turnbuckle and he is upside down. Vespillo takes a couple of steps back AND NOW CHARGES AT JAY NAILING HIM IN THE STOMACH WITH THE KNEE! Vespillo backs out of the turnbuckle again AND THEN GIVES HIM ANOTHER KNEE SHOT!

LN: I don't know guys, could we be seeing a new Intercontinental Champion tonight?

MI: As much as I love Jay, I'm not sure what to expect here tonight. The referee now tipping Jay over, he looks a little winded. Vespillo picks Jay up and whips him over to the ropes. Hardcore Jay comes back as Vespillo ducks AND JAY KICKS HIM IN THE FACE! Jay runs back to the ropes AND VESPILLO TRIES THE CLOTHESLINE BUT JAY DUCKS UNDER IT! Jay running to the other side, Vespillo picks the leg up BUT JAY CATCHES IT! Jay mocking Vespillo a little bit, spins him around, kick to the gut AND A DDT!

LN: Jay going for the cover 1…2… kick out by Vespillo. He's got to do a lot more in order to beat this big man here tonight.

HM: You're right about that. Jay now kicking Vespillo in the gut. He runs over to the ropes and comes back with a textbook elbow drop. Hardcore Jay goes for the cover again 1…2… and another kick out by Vespillo.

MI: The Hardcore Icon hoping to win this match here tonight and hopefully he and Jones can beat the Suicide Kingz in the TLC match coming up later in the program. Hardcore Jay on the attack now gives Vespillo a shot to the side of the head and now Jay runs over to the ropes. Jay comes back and nails Vespillo with a clothesline but he doesn't go down. Jay runs back to the ropes and nails him again with a clothesline but he still doesn't go down. Jay running to the ropes and trying again BUT VESPILLO PICKS JAY UP BY THE THROAT AND HE'S LETTING HIM HANG!

HM: He's using his height to his advantage. Hardcore Jay is dangling. He is inches away from the ground.

LN: This reminds me of the time he was hanged in the middle of the ring by Jonas Testament in the King Of Death Matches tournament.

MI: Finally Vespillo breaks the choke hold and now he's in the face of the referee. Vespillo now walking over to Jay and he picks him up. He sends Jay back over to the turnbuckle and Vespillo runs after him AND TRIES A CLOTHESLINE BUT JAY MOVES OUT OF THE WAY!

HE LIFTS HIM UP HIGH IN THE AIR AND GIVES HIM A CHOKESLAM NO! HE GIVES HIM A CHOKESLAM BACKBREAKER! GOOD LORD THAT HAD TO HURT!

HM: Vespillo now goes for the cover 1…2… JAY GET'S THE SHOULDER UP!

MI: Close one there but Jay isn't finished in this one yet. Vespillo picks Jay back up and sends him to the ropes but Jay reverses it and sends Vepillo over. Vespillo comes back with a clothesline BUT JAY DUCKS AND VESPILLO NAILS THE REFEREE! HE NAILS THE REFEREE OUT OF THE RING! JAY ROLLS HIM UP IN A SCHOOL BOY BUT THE REFEREE IS KNOCKED OUT!

HM: And Jay had him beat but the referee was knocked out by that clothesline.

LN: And Jay is back up and he looks over the ropes to the referee who is on the floor. And Vespillo now is getting back to his feet. Jay turns around AND VESPILLO KICKS HIM IN THE GUT!

MI: Vespillo under-hooks the arms of Jay and lifts him up IMPAILER! IMPAILER! THE COMBINATION PEDIGREE AND TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!

LN: NEW CHAMPION! NEW CHAMPION! IT'S OVER!

HM: But the referee is still knocked out. Wait a minute. Vespillo has just rolled to the outside. HE'S GOT A CHAIR! HE'S GOT A CHAIR!

MI: Vespillo now is back in the ring, and he's waiting for Jay to get back up to his feet.

"Enter Sandman" starts to play again as Al gets inside the ring and hands Jay the title

HM: What a match that was. I can't believe Jay pulled it off.

LN: You mean you can't believe the Singapore Cane pulled it off. Jay cheated.

MI: Well Vespillo was the one who bought the chair inside the ring. If you ask me, he had it coming to him. Nevertheless, Jay retains the Intercontinental title here tonight.

Lord of The Ring Semi-Final Matchup
Eklispe vs. Paul Richards

MI: It's time for our LOTR semifinal contest between Paul Richards and Eklipse. The winner faces either Barry Savage or Jason Wylde in the finals later tonight.....

HM: Even though Richards went through a tough match against HOP earlier in the night, he is still my favorite to win the LOTR. He put this industry on the map, along with the likes of Grendel and Trent Raven. He knows what it takes to win the big one, as he was a three-time ICW Champ....

MI: Yeah, that's all true, but...did he pay you to say all that stuff?

HM: No, just putting him over, as a man his caliber deserves.

MI: Eklipse showed his ignorance of the industry's past by claiming to not know who Richards was. Does he know that you wrestled, Hawk?

HM: I doubt it.....

Eklipse comes out to heel heat. He looks around and smirks and slides into the ring.

HM: The newcomer looks cocky, which could spell doom for him....

"Cat Scratch Fever" plays as Paul Richards and Boomer Karr come out to a pop.

MI: Richards is walking slowly, still feeling the effects of his hardcore title match against HOP.

HM: If it wasn't for Karr, Richards might not be still undefeated and still the hardcore champ.

MI: OOOH! Eklipse wastes no time as he planchas on top of Richards and Karr! Eklipse pulls up Richards and whips him hard into the edge of the ring!

HM: It's important for Eklipse to stay on Richards now that he has the upperhand. Richards is more experienced, bigger, stronger, heck...all the intangibles are on Richards' side!

MI: True! Eklipse rolls Richards into the ring. He jumps up to the top rope...Richards is up.....sunset flip off of the top by Eklipse! 1...2...Richards kicks out! Eklipse pulls him up and whips him in....Eklipse with a cross body.....NO! Richards catches him and delivers a fallaway slam! Richards shakes the cobwebs out of his head and winds up and delivers a hard boot to Eklipse's ribs!

HM: I think Richards would like to teach Eklipse a lesson, now!

MI: You are right! Richards pulls Eklipse up and has him up....pumphandle slam! Richards straddles Eklipse and is delivering hard lefts and rights to the face! Richards is madder than hell!

HM: I'll say!

MI: Richards pulls Eklipse up violently and throws him violently over the top rope! The ref reprimands Richards for doing that.

HM: KARR!

MI: Boomer Karr smashes Richards' hardcore title over the back off Eklipse's head! Now Karr is stomping away!

HM: That Boomer hasn't changed one bit!

MI: The ref turns around, but Boomer sees this and backs away from Eklipse. Richards rolls out of the ring. He pulls Eklipse up and gets him in a bearhug and runs him back-first into the ringpost! Eklipse is in a bad way!

HM: Maybe Eklipse knows who Richards is now!

MI: I don't think he knows who anyone is! Richards is taken out his frustration of not only Eklipse, but with the whole attempted murder and kidnapping thing on Eklipse! Richards is loosening a section of the steel guardrail! He slides the section into the ring!

HM: I haven't seen Richards this ticked off since the NEGWA! This is the most ticked off he has been since his return to the NEW!

MI: Richards pulls Eklipse up...Eklipse is trying to fight back with a few punches, but Richards knees him in the gut and rolls him back into the ring. Richards climbs back into the squared circle and leans the railing in the corner.

HM: Does he have plans to deliver a Running Razor's Edge onto the railing?

MI: I think so....Richards pulls Eklipse up and backs into the corner....He has Eklipse up..........RUNNING RAZOR'S EDGE ONTO THE STEEL GUARDRAIL!

HM: GOOD NIGHT IRENE!

MI: Wait! The ref is down! Richards must've hit the ref as he was throwing Eklipse into the railing! Richards covers Eklipse, but sees that the ref is down! Richards is trying to revive the ref, but to no avail! Richards and now Boomer are paying no attention to Eklipse! They are trying to wake the ref up.

HM: Eklipse is getting up!

MI: How could the kid even move? How?! Boomer spots him and points at Richards. Richards turns around and pulls Eklipse up....small package!! 1...2....3...4....!!! There is no ref to count! Richards kicks out and kicks Eklipse violently in the side! He pulls Eklipse up and plants him with a hard body slam. Boomer slides a chair into the ring. Richards has it and he is going to the top......

HM: ARABIAN FACEBUSTER!

MI: NO IT ISN'T! EKLIPSE ROLLED OUT OF THE WAY, JUST A SPLIT SECOND BEFORE RICHARDS WAS GOING TO CRUSH HIS SKULL WITH THE CHAIR! Richards' is down, holding his tailbone. Eklipse drapes his arm barely on Richards. The ref recovers and counts slowly 1......

HM: WAIT!

MI: Karr grabs a hold of the ref's leg and slides him out of the ring and is kicking the poor ref!

HM: OH MY GOD!

MI: HERE COMES HOUSE OF PAIN! HOUSE OF PAIN! He levels Karr from behind with a clothesline! He is stomping away on Karr! Meanwhile, in the ring, Richards has somehow regained the upperhand and is choking Eklipse in the corner, totally oblivious to what is transpiring on the outside. HOP enters the ring and grabs the chair and smashes it over Richards' back! HOP has Richards up....RUNNING POWERBOMB INTO THE STEEL GUARDRAIL!

HM: WHAT IMPACT! MI: Now HOP pulls Richards up and props him in the corner against the railing......HOP turns around...What is he doing?! He pulls Eklipse up.....HE HAS EKLIPSE UP.....

HM: DEAR LORD!

MI: HOP WITH A RUNNING POWERBOMB ON EKLIPSE INTO RICHARDS AND THE STEEL GUARDRAIL!!!!!!!!!!

HM: WHAT CARNAGE!

MI: HOP puts Eklipse on top of Richards and rolls out of the ring. HOP is reviving the ref and rolls him into the ring. I don't even know if the ref knows where he is........1................2.........................................3!!!!!!!

HM: WHAT AN UPSET!

MI: Eklipse advances to the LOTR finals by handing Paul Richards his first loss!

HM: Yeah, but credit HOP with HUUUUUGE ASSIST!

MI: HOP gained revenge on Richards and Karr for his loss earlier tonight. Boy, is this loss going to sting Richards once Richards gets his head cleared and realizes how he lost to Eklipse.

HM: Well, no matter how he won, Eklipse has made it to the LOTR finals!

MI: Yeah, but what kind of shape is the kid going to be in!

HM: HOP is on the apron, staring down at Richards and Eklipse as the NEW paramedics rush into the ring to tend to both me.

MI: Look at that smirk on HOP's face! The sick, demented bastard!

the Titan-Tron shows a shot of the parking lot where a black car pulls up with the licence plate "oWo"

HM: Hey nice wheels! Is that a Jag?

MI: I believe it's a bently... and would you take a look at that plate! … It reads: oWo! But all the members appear to be in the building!

LN: So who's this chump?

MI: I know the same as you, Larry! …Look, someone is climbing out… damn it, the camera angle is pointing towards the floor!

LN: Stupid cameraman! Am I the only good member of staff here?

MI: Well, there's a set of legs getting out.. doesn't say much… WOW! And look at those legs following him… I think I'm in love!

LN: What, with the guy's set of legs?

HM: I knew there was a reason you were never asked to do stand-up, Larry!

the shot on the titan-tron fades

MI: Well it looks like we're not going to find out who that was any time soon.

Ace Of Spades plays as Wylde comes through the curtains and rushes the ring awaiting his opponent.

Announcer: And his opponent to advance this far he defeated the Enigma known as Thunder he hails from Sweetwater Texas and weight in at 287lbs he is Barry Savage.

Savage makes his way to the ring and in his hands he carries two steel chairs .. sliding into the ring Savage tosses a chair at the feet of Wylde who looks a little confused.

MI: What the hell is this .. is Savage trying to get disqualified ?

HM: I have no idea .. he is telling Wylde to pick up the chair .. but he is not .. Savage is banging the chair on the mat and yelling at Wylde to grab the chair .. the referee is staying back from the mad man.

MI: Well Savage is calling for the mic now …

Savage: Well Jas … ya got the guts .. pick up that damn chair and hit me .. come on whats the matter … you're a (BLEEP) !

HM: He is goading Wylde who has now picked up that chair .. the referee is warning both men not to .. he is threatening to DQ them both !

MI: Is Savage that crazed he would nail Wylde with the chair and is Wylde dumb enough to do it …

Savage: Come on punk hit me or I am going to nail your punk ass to the wall .. hit or be hit kid … oh and by the way . TAG YOUR IT !

MI: Savage just dropped the mic and ups goes the chair oh my lord !!

HM: Savage just nailed Jason Wylde with the chair. The ref is calling for the bell.

MI: Barry Savage has just dq'ed himself. Jason Wylde goes on to the finals of the tournament.

Camera cuts to backstage where Trent is standing over Warlock Hall who is sitting in a chair. The rest of the oWo is standing behind him.

TR: Warlock, your damn bladder is bigger than your head. What were you thinking?

Warlock starts to speak, but Trent slaps him across the face.

TR: You weren't thinking. I ought to whoop your ass right now for this. You don't get paid to hink. You follow my orders. My orders were to leave the ring.

WH: Yeah, but...

TR: You got one more chance, then I'm going to leave you for Generation Elite to finish off. So sit down, shut up, and follow my orders. You got that?

WH: Yeah boss.

TR: I JUST TOLD YOU TO SHUT THE HELL UP!?!?!?!

Trent motions and all of oWo pummel him and leave him on the floor. They leave. Warlock gets up slowly.

WH: I'm going to whoop his ass one of these days.

Warlock goes outside the locker room and the camera follows him. He gets a soda from the machine and puts the cold can to his eye. He is attacked again and left on the floor. Platinum superkicks him in the ribs and then grabs the can of soda and nails Warlock in the head with it.

Platinum: I thought you'd be tougher than that. You said you were a legend. You ain't nothing but a damned old...

Crowd: Pussy.

Platinum: Exactly. Let's go guys.

Generation Elite leaves the hallway as Warlock is convulsing on the floor.

Grudge Match
The LiveWire vs. Thunder

MI: Okay, here it comes, NEW fans! A semi-feud has been building all week between these next two competitors and it promises to be an entertaining and passionate match.

LN: Are you kidding me? Thunder maybe new here but he's going to pummel this "Livewire" guy in a second.

MI: Well, I'll guess we'll find out in a minute or two as we now head to ring side…

the lights go out,..... the sound of thunder rumbles through the arena, the a single bolt of lighting strikes the stage as sparks fly about everywhere... then the way i am by eminem hits as thunder walks out of the smoke

Announcer: Coming down to the ring weighing in at two hundred and eighty-seven pounds, former ECHO World Heavyweight Champion, THUNDER!

Thunder makes his way into the ring and looks on intently towards the top of the ramp way, awaiting his opponent

MI: Here's where we find out the man behind The Livewire. I can't wait to see this…

the arena falls into darkness. Fozzy's cover of "Livewire" by Motley Crue blasts over the PA system for a couple of bars before scratching to a halt and a familiar guitar riff echoes through the arena as a figure appears from the smoke and sparks at the top of the ramp way

MI: Who is that? I can't quite see!

Bon Jovi's "In and Out of Love" - Nova Edit is ringing full force around the arena as the man steps forward and reveals himself as former NEW North American and Cruiserweight Champion, Casanova!

LN: Casanova? What's he doing back? We haven't seen this guy in months! And look at that he's wearing a oWo t-shirt what in the world could that mean. Is Nova oWo?

MI: The enigma that took NEW by storm a few months back has returned and these fans here in Fort Worth, Texas are loving every second of it!

Announcer: And his opponent, weighing 230lbs, from Calgary, Alberta, Canada… one half of the Canadian Couple…. CASANOVA!

Casanova poses at the top of the ramp a little longer, soaking up the fan reaction before moving down the ramp towards the disapproving Thunder in the ring

MI: Casanova looks to have his targets locked.

LN: As does Thunder. This is going to go off!!

MI: Casanova sliding in under the bottom rope and Thunder immediately stomping him into the canvas. The ref calls for the bell and this thing is underway!

LN: Thunder doing just like he said, not showing any respect or fear for Casanova!

HM: It's been a while since Casanova has performed; I wonder what sort of condition he's in?

LN: He doesn't look in great shape at the moment as Thunder manhandles him into the corner.

MI: Thunder with a couple of vicious chops to the bare chest of Casanova. Now whipping him across to the opposite corner… wait… Casanova with a reversal.

He charges him down but Thunder gets a boot up to Casanova's face and bursts out of the corner with a thunderous clothesline… excuse the pun.

LN: Haha, this is great. Thunder really taking it to Nova!

HM: Casanova slowly climbing to his feet. Thunder runs at him with another clothesline, which Casanova ducks. Thunder sent off the ropes… Casanova lands a firm dropkick in his chest…

MI: Thunder doesn't go down!

LN: Would you look at that… Nova can't even take the big guy off his feet!

HM: Casanova with a kick to the gut of Thunder and plants him with a firm DDT!

MI: That took him off his feet… but not for long, both men are back up and Thunder again runs at Casanova! Nova with a drop hoe hold and then puts a hammerlock on Thunder, pushing his face and upper body into the canvas…

HM: Now there is a mistake! Casanova releases the hold and raises his arms in the air prompting a pop from the crowd! Now Thunder is up!

MI: Thunder stalking Nova. Casanova turns around and is met with a big belly-to-belly! Thunder covers… 1… 2… Shoulder up!

LN: Thunder literally dragging Casanova to his feet by his long hair… now lifting him up into a big vertical suplex! Look at that power! He's holding him there in mid-air!

MI: Amazing strength with this stalling vertical suplex and the blood is rushing to the head of "The Livewire" Casanova!

HM: Thunder falling back with a hard impact leaving Casanova's body limp on the canvas!

LN: Thunder now up to his feet and parades around the ring taunting Casanova and the no-good, Texan fans!

MI: He's picking up Casanova again… and lifting him into another stalling vertical suplex! …Nova must be so dizzy right now, I don't know if he'll be able to shake it off in time!

LN: Wait… Nova escapes… flipping over and landing on his feet. Now hitting a desperate falling neck breaker on the former ECHO champion. Both men are down and struggling to catch their breath…

HM: The referee starting his count! 1… 2… 3… 4… 5… They battle up to one knee. Thunder just with the advantage… 6… 7… 8… both men are up and meet in the middle of the ring to exchange right hands!

MI: Both men battling toe to toe but it looks as thought the stronger of the two, Thunder is collecting the advantage! Thunder beats Casanova back down to one knee before dragging him back up and setting him off the ropes…

HM: Casanova comes back and ducks a punch from Thunder… now off the opposite set of ropes… Casanova with a Japanese arm drag to take down the big man!

LN: Thunder and Casanova quickly back to their feet… Thunder lunges at Nova but is countered with a reverse elbow take down. Casanova holds the arm and leans back, the torque on the arm looks to be pulling Thunder's shoulder out of it's socket…

HM: We could see Thunder tap here… he looks to be in some pain.

MI: Good tactics by Nova, on the ground Thunder's power is effectively halved.

HM: The referee is checking Thunder, asking if he wants to give it up… but Thunder refuses.

LN: Steely determination from the NEW newcomer! Battling out of Casanova's hold!!

MI: Hey? Did you see that? Thunder used his free arm to thumb 'Nova's eye!!

LN: That wasn't a thumb to the eye! It was a perfectly legal open hand strike.

HM: Looked like a thumb to the eye to me… but it obviously worked as Thunder is back in control… knocking Casanova around the ring with right hands!

MI: Casanova battling back with the crowd behind him… He runs off the ropes but is met with a devastating spine buster from Thunder… Thunder now going to the second rope… he drops a knee into the chest of Casanova…

LN: Great flying knee drop! This is it! Thunder covers… 1… 2… NO! I don't believe it!

HM: Neither does Thunder! Two high impact moves and Casanova kicks out! I can see that it is frustrating Thunder!

MI: Thunder picks up Casanova and sets him off the ropes… a hotshot/flapjack from Thunder and Casanova comes down hard with his throat landing across the top rope… Nova rolls on the floor gasping for air while the ref warns Thunder.

LN: That referee has no business getting on Thunder's case! Casanova deserves everything he's getting after running his mouth all week! …AH-HAHAHA! Thunder just pushed the ref to the ground!

HM: That's disgusting! I'm surprised the ref hasn't called this match a day and DQed Thunder! He should think himself lucky to still be in this thing!

LN: The ref deserved it!

MI: There's no excuse for laying your hands on an official, Larry! …Thunder obviously doesn't think so. Anyway… Thunder now putting boots into 'Nova who rolls out of the ring to safety, still holding his throat!

HM: Thunder also sliding to the outside now… Oh no, they're coming this way! This isn't going to be pretty.

MI: Thunder smashing the head of Casanova off our announce table right in front of us! And now Thunder is getting in Hawk Manson's face!!

HM: Get him back inside the ring…

Thunder: I'm the former ECHO Champion, punk!

HM: N.E.W. Hall-of-famer! Nice to meet you! Now get your ass away form our desk!

MI: Casanova is up and slams Thunder's head into the announce table and now whipping Thunder knees-first into the steel ring steps! …The referee is up and counting both men out! 4… 5… 6…

LN: Dirty tactics from Casanova. First the attack from behind while Thunder wasn't watching, then the illegal use of the steel steps! HE'S the one who should be DQed!

HM: Casanova sliding into the ring and back to the outside to reset the ref's count! I don't know how wise that is! If this thing turns into a brawl I'd favour Thunder. Casanova wants Thunder in the ring where he can out wrestle him!

MI: Thunder getting to his feet on the outside and Casanova now climbing to the top turnbuckle! …Suicide Somersault Plancha from the top by Casanova! That'll hurt no matter how big you are!

LN: Casanova is an idiot! That HAD to hurt him just as much as Thunder!

HM: The referee continues his count 3… 4… 5… 6… They are getting to their feet… 7… 8… they roll into the ring at different points. With the aid of the ropes, Casanova is to his feet first… Nova comes off the ropes but Thunder catches him in a million dollar dream sleeper… Casanova is struggling!!

MI: Nova looks to be fading fast! Wait… Casanova ducks down and frees himself with a snapmare to Thunder… Now off the ropes again and a big leg drop across Thunder's throat. This is it… Casanova signalling for the end!

HM: He's going up to the top, we know what's coming!! …. The Novabomb (shooting star press) to Thunder. Casanova makes the cover 1… 2… 3! It's over! Casanova starts his return with a success

HM: What's Thunder doing down by us?

MI: Looks like he's looking for something… OH NO! He's got a steel chair and is sliding it into the ring! …The match is over, what the hell does he think he's doing?

LN: He's finishing what he started!

HM: Casanova is totally oblivious to Thunder standing behind him with that chair!!

MI: No! Nova turns round and is nailed with the chair right between the eyes! He's been busted open!!

HM: Now Thunder laying that chair into the ribs of Casanova…

LN: What the hell is this???

MI: En Fuego, Trent Raven and The Man Called GRENDEL sprinting down to ringside!

LN: They have no business here!

MI: Grendel hits the ring first and knocks Thunder on his ass! …Now Thunder is high-tailing it out of here and up the ramp while En Fuego helps up the bloodied Casanova.

HM: Trent Raven has the microphone…

TR: Thunder, you will come to realize that there are some guys you can push around, and some that you can't. When you use your equalizers, you cheapen the act. Nova is now a part of the Old Order, and we will make sure you know just how dominant we can be, even without weapons.
Camera cuts to backstage where Trent and the rest of the oWo are talking to someone who is sitting in a large leather chair. All we see is the chair's back and some of the oWo in the foreground.

Lord of The Ring Final Match
Ekilspe vs. Jason Wylde

MI: Welcome back fans. We are set for the finals for the Lord of the Ring tournament. Jason Wylde is already in the ring, and now here comes Eklipse. I have received word that Ms. Kim and the rest of Generation Elite has been barred from ringside.

HM: Jason starts up with a tie up as the ref rings the bell. Eklipse sends Wylde to the ropes and nails him with a clothesline.

MI: What the hell? Someone has just brushed past me and grabbed the ring bell.

HM: Mikey and En Fuego are heading down the aisle with a drill! The ref goes to stop them.

MI: The figure that passed me is in the ring with the ringbell. He nails Eklipse with the ring bell. He is motioning Jason Wylde to cover Eklipse.

HM: Jason refuses and pulls the shroud off the figure!!! IT'S TRENT RAVEN! RAVEN KICKS WYLDE IN THE GUT AND DDT'S HIM!!!

MI: Trent rolls out of the ring. Eklipse covers Wylde and the ref makes the count. 1…2…3!!! EKLIPSE IS THE LORD OF THE RING!!!

HM: Trent has a mic. He gets into the ring.

Trent Raven: Listen up you son of a bitch. That's a freebie. I only gave you that because Wylde would not join us. Your day is coming though, and I will take you out. You have yet to discover the joy and pain a Birdcage can provide. I'll see you on the flipside.

HM: Trent dropped the mic and has rushed out through the crowd. Where did Mikey and En Fuego go?

MI: Here comes Generation Elite, but there really is no reason now! They stand Wylde up and nail him with a chair.

HM: Generation Elite is leaving and carrying Eklipse off. What a very weird ending to LotR.

MI: Wait Hawk, we got one more match to go. Grendel-Raven up next!

HM: We got one more? And it involves oWo? Expect Generation Elite to get revenge, next!

NEW World Title Match - No Disqualification
Trent Raven vs. Grendel (c)

MI: Welcome back fans.

"Locked in a Cage" by Skillet starts up as Trent Raven makes his way to the ring. "More Human Than Human" by White Zombie starts up and Grendel rushes to the ring with a mic.

Grendel: Since Trey Murray cannot be here, I elect not to wrestle this match against you Trent.

Trent and Grendel shake hands, but "Freak on a Leash" by KoRn starts up and Trey Murray comes out, posing on the ring steps before making his way to the ring.

Trey Murray: Now, I thought you might try that fellas, so no one is leaving this ring until there is a clear winner.

Trey takes off his jacket to reveal a referee shirt.

MI: Good! These guys have to fight now. Trey Murray is the referee.

Trey Murray: But that's not all. Now I need for all the members of the oWo and Generation Elite to make their way to the ring.

All the members come to the entrance way where they stop and stare each other down.

Trey Murray: Now if any of you attack each other, you are all fired. Now, come to ringside, and I want you all to mix up, none of this segregation crap.

They all mix up on different sides of the ring.

Trey Murray: Now, this is a lumberjack match. No countouts will be allowed. If you guys try to weasel out of this anymore, I will fire you both. Now, we have that square, let's wrestle.

Trey throws the mic out of the ring and calls for the bell. Trent and Grendel stare at each other and just stand there.

Trey Murray: Do it now, or else you're fired.

MI: Well, it looks like Trent and Grendel will defy Trey to the end.

HM: Grendel looks at Trent and shrugs. Trent touches Grendel with his forefinger and Grendel falls to the mat like he's been waylayed.

MI: There's no way Trey will count this. Trey hits the mat. 1…2……………HE STOPPED AT 2!!! I KNEW HE WOULDN'T COUNT THAT!!!

HM: Eklipse has tossed in a Generation Elite T-Shirt. Trey put it on!!!

MI: TREY IS GENERATION ELITE!!! Generation Elite is celebrating at ringside, but Fuego and Mikey nail Platinum with two chairs! Nova is getting beat down by the Suicide Kingz!

HM: Here comes Hardcore Jay and Hardcore Jones!!!

MI: They nail the Suicide Kingz with two cans of beer!!! This has turned into chaos!!!

HM: Here comes TXO. Savage is attacking Eklipse. It's total chaos here!!!

MI: Speaking of Kaos, he slides a chair into the ring and Trey Murray picks it up. He slides in and is cheering for Trey to hit Trent and Grendel. Trent throws up his hands and shrugs his shoulders.

HM: WHAM!?!?! Trey just nailed Kaos!!! Trey pulls off the Generation Elite and Referee shirts to reveal AN OWO SHIRT!!! Trent pushes Grendel again who falls. Trent covers!!!

MI: This is making me sick!!! Trey counts. 1…2…3….And fans we have a new World Champion. I sure hope to hell they are proud of themselves.

HM: ARE YOU KIDDING?!? THIS IS THE BEST MATCH I HAVE SEEN IN YEARS!!!

MI: Fans, come back and see us next week at Metal. I promise it won't suck this bad.

HM: You little kiss ass. Trey is your boss too, and he pulled this off perfectly. Bow to the master!!!
