The show opens to a stadium full of people. Adam and Lily-Ann Florés stood in the ring, microphones in hand, smiling and waving to everyone.
“Welcome everyone to Monday Night FFW!†Paul London, one of the commentators for tonight, said. “I’m Paul London, and I’ll be doing the commentary tonight with my partner, The Miz.â€
“It’s actually kind of refreshing to be out here, Paul.†Miz said.
“Oh?†London asked.
“You have no idea how many women attack me back there in that locker room.†Miz said. “Not complaining, but you know, too much of a good thing. It’s hard to breathe when your mouth is always-â€
“Moving on!†London interrupted. “Adam and Lily-Ann Florés are in the ring now, and apparently they have an announcement to make before the show starts.â€
Adam and Lily-Ann waved to the audience for a few more moments before finally speaking.
“Last week, of the four Championship matches we held, two of them ended in injury.†Adam said. “Christian Cage will be unable to compete until next week due to third degree burns to his legs, and Jackie Moore has suffered a Grade 3 concussion. I’m told she will be out of action indefinitely.â€
“Because Christian’s injuries are not severe and he will be able to compete next week, he will be retaining his Heavyweight Championship.†Lily-Ann said. “As for current Women’s Champion Christy Hemme, because of the controversial-â€
“KENNEDY!!â€
The name erupted from the speakers, and Mr. Kennedy’s theme began to play. Dressed to compete, Mr. Kennedy stepped out and began to walk down the ramp.
“Is he interrupting the owners?†London asked.
“You have to rock the boat to get ahead in this business, Paul.†Miz replied. “That’s why you’ve never been a Heavyweight contender in your entire career.â€
Mr. Kennedy stepped into the ring, microphone in hand, and stopped in front of Adam and Lily-Ann.
“So you mean to tell me that the World Champion of your little family party is hiding at home, afraid to even show his face here?†Kennedy spat.
“He’ll be back next week, Kennedy.†Adam replied calmly.
“Yeah, yeah.†Kennedy replied dismissively. “Where I come from, if a Champion can’t even stand on his own two char-broiled feet, he gives it up to someone who can! Some one like…†He took a breath, “mmmMMISTAAAAR-â€
Suddenly, Kennedy was interrupted by the theme music of Kurt Angle. Rather than go through his usual flashy entrance though, Kurt simply stepped out from the locker room with a microphone, accompanied by Karen Angle.
“Don’t even start, save us the headache.†Kurt said, shaking his head. “As I recall, when it came time to step up against Kane, you ran away with your tail between your legs!â€
“Yeah? Well where the hell were you?†Kennedy demanded. “You didn’t even have the guts to sign up for the match to begin with!â€
“I wasn’t here last week, Kennedy. My wife was on her period and I had to stay by her side and feed her chocolate.†Kurt replied. “It’s the only thing that keeps her mellow. Otherwise she frightens the children.â€
Karen, obviously offended, smacked the back of Kurt’s head.
“Ow!! I’m kidding dear, I’m kidding! The chocolate does nothing.†Kurt said, rubbing his head.
Adam and Lily-Ann at this point were hanging by the ropes, just watching the show.
Karen grabbed the microphone from Kurt. “Adam, Lily-Ann, I know you two are all
new at this and everything, but the thing to do now is put these two idiots in a Number One Contenders Match.â€
“Would that work, would that shut them up, would that let us start the show?†Adam asked.
“Fine, done, Kurt and Kennedy for the title shot tonight.†Lily-Ann replied. “Now the three of you get out of here, we have other stuff to deal with right now.â€
Kennedy glared at the two before leaving the ring and walking back up the ramp.
“Like we were saying.†Adam continued. “Because of the controversial way Christy Hemme won the title, she will be defending it again tonight against the semifinalist of last week’s Battle Royal: Maria. And that match is starting right now.â€
“Well there you go, we’re having a title match tonight.†Paul London said. “If we could get a replay of the controversy last week up…â€
A replay started, featuring Maria standing on the bottom rope, asking if an injured Jackie Moore was alright. Then, Christy Hemme grabbed Maria’s ankles, threw her over the top rope, and hit a Neckbreaker on her to send her to the floor.
“You see there, Maria was making sure Jackie Moore was okay, and Christy Hemme clearly took advantage. No guts, nothing.†London said.
“Yeah, catfights are hot when they get all sassy like this.†Miz replied with a huge grin.
“…that’s it? That’s your commentary?†London asked.
“Yes, yes it is.†Miz replied.
Women’s Championship Match
Christy Hemme (c) Vs. Maria
Christy Hemme and Maria walked towards each other, meeting in the center of the ring.
Maria, furious, shoved Christy away and began yelling at her, the microphones picking up a few things relating to ‘Jackie is hurt’ and ‘What’s wrong with you’. After a few moments of this Christy shoved Maria away and gave her a slap to the face. Maria jerked to the side a little from the hit, rubbing her cheek. She turned back to Christy and delivered a much more powerful slap, not only jerking Christy to the side but forcing her to take a few steps in that direction.
Christy turned back and rushed forward to clothesline Maria. Maria ducked under it, spun around, and gave Christy a backhand slap. Some of the crowd gave a ‘WOOO!!’ at this, though it could just as easily been a ‘That was hot’ thing rather than a Ric Flair reference.
Maria followed up by grabbing Christy’s arm and launching her to the opposite ropes. Christy bounced off and ran into a flying shoulder block from Maria. Maria, uncharacteristically aggressive, harshly grabbed Christy’s shoulder to keep her from falling back too far. She then leapt forward into a handstand and grabbed Christy in a neckscissors.
Christy suddenly grabbed Maria’s abdomen and yanked her up so she was horizontal in the air. Maria then simply fell back, hitting the back of her head. She screamed and let go of Christy, holding the back of her head.
Christy grabbed Maria and yanked her to her feet. Wasting no time, Christy grabbed Maria in an inverted headlock and hit her with an inverted DDT. Christy went for the cover, and Maria kicked out at two.
Christy got to her feet, stomped on Maria’s chest once for good measure, and walked to the corner. She went to the outside and climbed to the top turnbuckle. She waved to the audience for a moment before leaping off, going for a guillotine leg drop.
Suddenly, Jackie Moore grabbed Maria’s ankle from outside the ring and yanked her away, making Christy miss and hit the mat. The Ref didn’t notice, and made the three-count when Maria crawled over to pin Christy.
“And we have a new Women’s Champion!†Paul London proclaimed. “Thanks to… Miz, you’re drooling.â€
“Am not!†Miz said defensively, wiping his mouth.
“Yeah, well Christy Hemme almost had this match won, when Jackie Moore came out from under the ring and yanked Maria away from that leg drop.†London said. “Looks like Jackie Moore is out for revenge for what happened last week.â€
“But Maria did just as much damage as Christy did, why would Jackie want to help her?†Miz asked.
“I’m sure we’ll get some answers from Jackie later on tonight.†London said, turning back to the audience. “Now we’ve still got a lot of action ahead of us, so stick around.â€
---------------------------------
Lily-Ann stood in the interview area, with Matt and Jeff Hardy beside her. They each had their Tag Team Championship belts slung over one shoulder.
“I’m joined now by Tag Team Champions Matt and Jeff Hardy.†Lily-Ann said. “I’m filling in for Maria since she’s in the locker room using an ice pack as a pillow. We really should have thought this commentary and interviewer thing through more.â€
“Just do your best, it’s only your second show.†Matt said.
“Thank you! Well, tonight Jeff you’ve got a one-on-one match against Brother Ray.†Lily-Ann said. “I mean… what are you gonna do? You can fit inside him!â€
Jeff smirked. “You know, Lily-Ann, Brother Ray has been bugging and texting Matt and I all week, saying that we don’t deserve to be Tag Team Champions because we kept it from being a Tag Team match. To that I say, Ray, if you’re too fat to fit through the ropes and get in the ring, that’s not my fault.â€
“So you feel you wrestled a Tag Team match last week?†Lily-Ann asked.
“Lily-Ann, Devon had every opportunity to tag in his partner Ray.†Matt said. “If they want to say we didn’t wrestle a Tag Team match last week, it’s because we weren’t facing a team.â€
With that, Matt and Jeff walked away.
Lily-Ann stood there for a few moments before Tomko stepped into view.
“Oh, Tomko, what is it?†Lily-Ann asked.
“Are you gonna put me in a match tonight?†Tomko asked.
“Well it’s not in the schedule… but there’s still space tonight. Alright, I’ll put you in a match against… CM Punk. Sound good?†Lily-Ann asked.
“Good enough.†Tomko replied, and walked away.
Lily-Ann stood there for a few moments, and walked away.
All was silent now in the interview area. After a few moments, Roxxi Laveaux stepped into view. She looked around, with a curious look on her face. She looked down, slowly bent down to pick something up, and produced three live worms. She stared at them inquisitively before looking around again, and walked out of view.
---------------------------------
“Wow, what a thing to say!†Paul London said. “That Brother Ray and Brother Devon aren’t even a tag team!â€
“Well that’s getting in your opponent’s head, that’s all that is.†Miz replied. “I don’t have chicks hanging off me all the time for the fun of it. Well, I do. But it also sends a message.â€
“We’d better be afraid of you because you use girls as human shields?†London asked.
Before Miz could respond, Brother Ray, who was already in the ring with Brother Devon, began yelling at the audience and the entrance ramp.
“EVERYBODY SHUT UP!! ALL OF YOU!†Ray yelled. “We lost our shot at the Tag Team titles because a pair of LITTLE BOYS didn’t even win a TAG TEAM MATCH! SHUT UP, ALL OF YOU!!â€
“I could get some Midol from my girls.†Miz said quietly.
“So you so-called Hardy Boyz, because you should be called the Hardy BOYFRIENDZ, GET OUT HERE and since you don’t want to have a Tag Team Match, GET IN HERE AND WE’LL GO ONE ON ONE, MAN TO BOYFRIEND!!†Ray screamed.
At that, Jeff Hardy’s music began to play. Matt and Jeff came out, went through their signature moves, and went down the ramp with Jeff in the lead. The Ref had to keep Ray and Devon back to allow Jeff to enter the ring. After a bit of pushing and yelling the Ref managed to get Devon out of the ring and separate Ray and Jeff for long enough for the bell to be rung.
One-Fall Match
Jeff Hardy Vs. Brother Ray
Jeff ran at Ray, but was slammed to the ground by a big boot from Ray. Ray grabbed Jeff by the hair and threw him onto the ropes, where he delivered a clubbing shot to Jeff’s back. Jeff yelled out in pain and used the ropes to stand, walking to the corner to get away from Ray.
Ray ran forward to continue his attack, but ran into a back elbow from Jeff. Jeff ran forward and continued, throwing right hands to Ray’s head to push him back to the center of the ring. Once they were in the center of the ring Jeff grabbed Ray’s arm to launch him at the ropes. Ray reversed it and sent Jeff for the ropes. Jeff bounced off, ducked under a clothesline from Ray, bounced off the opposite ropes, and hit Ray with a flying shoulder block. Jeff quickly followed this with a standing dropkick to knock Ray against the ropes.
Jeff got to his feet, but was punched square in the face by Ray. Jeff was knocked to the mat, and the Ref scolded Ray for using a closed hand strike. Ray ignored the Ref. He grabbed Jeff by the hair, yanked him to his feet, and scoop slammed him back to the mat. He went for the cover, and Jeff kicked out at two.
Ray quickly got to his feet and began stomping on Jeff over and over. Matt, standing in the corner, raised his hands and began clapping. The crowd quickly followed suit.
“SHUT UP!! ALL OF YOU, SHUT UP!!†Ray screamed at them, stopping his assault. He stormed over to the ropes and continued to scream at the audience.
Jeff used this distraction to get to his feet. He ran for the opposite ropes, bounced off, and attempted to send Ray over the top rope with a flying clothesline. Ray left his feet for a second, but remained in the ring. Jeff ran back to the opposite ropes, bounced off, and tried a second flying clothesline. Ray, who had turned around, took the clothesline but again remained in the ring. He simply held his neck and coughed a little.
Jeff looked at Matt and shook his head, rather amused by this, but the distraction let Ray smack him to the mat with another closed right hand. Again the Ref scolded him, and again Ray barely glanced at the Ref. Ray grabbed Jeff by the hair, yanked him to his feet, and hoisted him up into a fireman’s carry. Jeff struggled and managed to fall out of the hold, landing behind Ray. Jeff ducked under a clothesline from Ray as he ran to Matt’s corner, leapt onto the second turnbuckle, and hit a Whisper in the Wind on Ray.
Brother Devon, furious, climbed into the ring and went for Jeff. Matt took heed of this and quickly climbed the turnbuckle as Jeff backed away from Devon. Matt jumped off the top turnbuckle and hit a missile dropkick on Devon. Devon was knocked back and fell on Ray, who was on his hands and knees trying to get up.
Seeing his opportunity, Jeff went outside the ring and climbed to the top turnbuckle. He leapt off and hit a Swanton Bomb on Devon, pressing Devon onto Ray. Matt laughed a little at this, and with quite a bit of effort managed to push Devon off Ray. Jeff went for the cover and made the three-count.
“Well that was just disturbing.†Miz said, shaking his head.
“Disturbing but very effective!†Paul London said. “And we got to see Jeff use that Whisper in the Wind. I love seeing impressive high-flying moves like that.â€
“Yeah, yeah, if you love him so much why don’t you marry him?†Miz asked.
“That’s… that’s great, Miz. Excellent commentating.†London said, shaking his head. “Well ladies and gentlemen, up next we have CM Punk against Tomko, and after that, Kurt Angle and Mr. Kennedy duke it out in a Number One Contenders match for the Heavyweight Championship.â€
---------------------------------
Adam now stood in the interview area, microphone in hand, beside Jackie Moore. Jackie was looking around, looking lost and confused, and stumbled every so often just trying to stand.
“I’m joined here tonight by Ms. Jackie Moore. Jackie, you-†Adam began.
“Say… say wha? Jackie Moore?†Jackie asked a little too loudly. “Who is that?â€
“Um… you? You are Jackie Moore.†Adam said slowly.
“Really?†Jackie asked, thoroughly confused.
Adam looked around briefly, checking if maybe this was a prank of some kind, before turning back to Jackie. “…so… tonight during the Women’s Championship Match, you came out and cost Christy Hemme the title.†He said.
“Yeah, that was fun fun FUUUNNNNAHHHH!!†Jackie said. “…I think. Sounds fun!â€
“…yeah.†Adam said, tilting his head a little to examine Jackie. “I assume it was because of how you received a concussion at the hands of Christy Hemme last week, but it should be noted that Maria did just as much damage. Why would you go after Christy but help Maria?â€
“I gotawhaaat?†Jackie asked, cocking an eyebrow.
“…um… have you been medically cleared to be here tonight, Jackie?†Adam asked.
Suddenly, Christy Hemme ran on screen with a phone book and smacked Jackie with it. Jackie hit the ground, and Christy wound up and threw the phone book at her.
“Hey, hey, HEY!! STOP!!†Adam yelled, grabbing Christy and pushing her away from Jackie. “That is NOT how we settle things around here!â€
“She cost me my title!!†Christy yelled.
“And you’re about to cost yourself your job if you don’t get out of here!†Adam retaliated. “Go!â€
Christy glared at Adam, glanced at Jackie, and walked away. Adam watched her leave, and looked as though he was thinking of something.
---------------------------------
“Hot damn, gotta love catfights.†Miz said with a huge grin.
Paul London just shook his head. “Christy Hemme has a lot of passion, but she’s expressing it totally wrong.â€
“What do you mean?†Miz asked. “If you want your title you do anything to get it. Besides, that was HOT!!â€
CM Punk’s music began to play, and he came down to the ring.
“Well here we go, a one on one match between CM Punk and Tomko. Two great competitors with opposite styles, this should be fun to watch.†London said.
Tomko’s music played and he made his way to the ring.
Suddenly, a ring official stepped into the ring with a microphone and a cue card.
“By order of Adam Florés, this matchup has changed!†The official announced. Punk and Tomko looked around, confused.
“It has now become a Mixed Tag Team Match!†The official continued. “It will be CM Punk and Beth Phoenix against Tomko and Christy Hemme!â€
Right away, Beth Phoenix’s music began to play, and she came down to the ring.
“What an interesting decision this is!†London said. “Christy Hemme wanted to be in a fight so bad, so Adam put her in one!â€
“I’m not sure I like Beth Phoenix too much.†Miz appraised. “I mean, she’s got it all in the chest area, but she doesn’t seem like she’s willing to do all that much.â€
Paul London groaned.
Christy Hemme’s music began to play. She stepped out onto the top of the entrance ramp, turned back, and yelled at someone backstage. She then looked down the entrance ramp with some uncertainty and proceeded to walk down.
Mixed Tag Team Match
CM Punk and Beth Phoenix Vs. Tomko and Christy Hemme
The newfound allies looked at each other with confusion. While Tomko and Christy Hemme were fairly indifferent of each other, Beth Phoenix simply put a hand across CM Punk’s chest to keep him from entering the ring. She climbed in herself and yelled at Christy to come out. Tomko looked at Beth, shrugged, and motioned Christy to get in.
Christy climbed into the ring and slowly walked up to Beth. Beth just smiled and patted Christy’s cheek with one hand, talking down to her. Christy, annoyed, gave Beth a backhand slap. Christy continued this attack by giving Beth repeated elbow shots to the face. She then grabbed Beth and launched Beth at the ropes. Beth reversed it and sent Christy that way. Christy bounced off and was grabbed by Beth for a side slam.
Beth got to her feet, yanking Christy up with her. She launched Christy at the ropes again, and this time leveled Christy with a big boot.
Christy was already pretty much motionless. Beth towered above her for a few seconds, smiling, before grabbing her and yanking her up again. She got Christy in a front facelock, hoisted her up in a delayed fisherman suplex, and slammed Christy to the ground.
Christy landed very close to Tomko’s corner though, and before Beth could make the pin, Tomko reached down and managed to tag Christy’s foot.
The Ref had to fight Beth to keep her from attacking Tomko, who just looked at her with a bemused look on his face. Finally the Ref managed to get Beth back to her corner, and Tomko entered the ring. Christy was out cold, so Tomko just rolled her to the side with one foot. CM Punk entered the ring, partly just to get away from Beth Phoenix, and looked back at her. She just glared at him and motioned with one hand to get on with it.
Punk turned around in time to see Tomko take him down with an uppercut. Punk backed away, reaching the ropes, and pushed himself to his feet. Tomko advanced, and Punk raised his feet to kick Tomko in the gut. Punk took this opportunity to run forward, grab Tomko, and began delivering knee strikes to Tomko’s gut. Punk then performed an Irish whip to launch Tomko into the corner.
Punk charged for Tomko to perform a knee strike, but Tomko strafed out of the way. Punk ended up effectively landing on top of the turnbuckle, his kneestriking leg sailing over the turnbuckle to slam against the steep ringpost behind it, while he took the force of the turnbuckle itself to his inner thigh.
Tomko walked forward, grabbed Punk, and threw him off the turnbuckle onto the mat. Punk landed on his back and rolled for a bit before stopping.
Punk used the ropes to pull himself to his feet and stumbled over to face Tomko. Tomko delivered a right hand to Punk, knocking him back against the ropes. Punk bounced off, effectively standing in the process, and Tomko knocked him back again with another right hand.
Punk bounced off again, and this time Tomko grabbed him in a two-handed choke. Tomko took a few steps back to make room and delivered a double-barrel chokeslam to Punk. Tomko went for the cover and made the three-count.
“Well that was different, if nothing else.†Paul London said. “Beth Phoenix had the match won for her team, but Tomko got a lucky tag and won the match.â€
“See how quickly Tomko put CM Punk away?†Miz asked happily. “Not like it was any surprise, Punk never could perform in the ring. I don’t know why he was even hired.â€
“Christy Hemme still hasn’t come to.†London said, changing the subject.
“Yep. It’s like she went through a night with me.†Miz replied.
---------------------------------
Adam and Lily-Ann sat on a couch in their office, watching what took place.
“Good thinking on Christy Hemme.†Lily-Ann said approvingly.
“I do what I can.†Adam replied.
Suddenly, Christian Cage limped in on crutches. “You know how many stairs you have in this place??†He demanded.
“There are no stairs in the hospital, why aren’t you there?†Adam asked. “Jackie Moore broke out of there too, they need tighter security.
“Yeah, yeah, cute.†Christian said. “Let me tell you something, I won that Inferno match. I stepped up when nobody else would. Christian Cage, the Instant Classic, became the Instant Champion. So what does Kane do? He picks me up and he sets me on fire even though he lost!â€
“Yeah, he’s fun like that. You should see him in a restaurant where they flambé stuff in front of him.†Adam replied.
Lily-Ann, standing behind Adam, just smacked him. “So what do you want us to do about it?†She asked.
“I want Kane to suffer.†Christian said. “I want him in a match against… against…â€
“Pretty sure anyone we put in the ring with Kane is going to be the one that suffers.†Adam said.
“And what the hell is with this choosing the Number One Contender when I’m not even here to defend myself??†Christian demanded, changing the subject. “I’m not even around and you’re already setting me up for a match? I’m World Champion, I should get a say in what goes on with MY Championship!â€
“Okay, how about this.†Lily-Ann said. “When you defend your title next week against either Kurt Angle or Mr. Kennedy, you get to choose the match stipulations.â€
“…that’s a start.†Christian said, and limped out.
Almost immediately, a loud crash sounded out, followed by Christian screaming in pain.
“DAMN IT!!†He yelled in anger, apparently at Roxxi Laveaux, who just entered the office.
“Oh you’re fine, just walk it off.†Adam called out.
“I can’t WALK IT OFF, they’re my-†Christian began, but was cut off as Roxxi closed the door behind her.
“Always happy when someone does that.†Adam said.
“Can we help you?†Lily-Ann asked.
Roxxi calmly held up the worms she found earlier. “Who left these?†She asked in a statement tone.
“Uh… my guess would be the Boogeyman.†Adam said. “Why-â€
But Roxxi simply turned around, opened the door, and walked out, apparently having obtained all the information she came for. A second later, Christian yelled again. “Oh no, don’t help me, I’m just FINE LAYING RIGHT HERE!!â€
Adam grabbed a broom from beside the couch and nudged the door closed.
“Didn’t we hire anyone normal?†Lily-Ann asked.
---------------------------------
“Well Christian Cage is already throwing a hissy-fit back there.†Paul London said. “What did he expect, the FFW to grind to a halt until he got better?â€
“You know, if Roxxi Laveaux washed her face a bit, got some shampoo that smelled like Lilacs or something, I think she has potential to be quite a hottie.†Miz replied, as if this was the topic at hand.
London stared at Miz for a moment, who just shrugged and grinned.
“…anyway, we’ve got a Number One Contender’s Match coming up between Kurt Angle and Mr. Kennedy. Miz, who do you like in this matchup?†London asked.
“I’m straight!†Miz quickly replied. “I don’t know about YOU, going in there and bouncing around, doing your little ballerina moves, but I-â€
“KENNEDY!!â€
Somewhat to the delight of Paul London, Mr. Kennedy’s theme cut Miz off, and Kennedy made his way to the ring. He entered the ring and charismatically reached up, catching the microphone.
“Ladies and gentlemen, this next contest is to PROVE to you all that I am the rightful NUMBER ONE CONTENDER…†Kennedy began. “I weigh in tonight at TWO HUNDRED FORTY SEVEN POUNDS… I hail from GREEN BAY, WISCONSIN… and my name… is… MMMMISTAAAAARRR KENNEDAAAAYYYY…â€
Kennedy walked to the corner and climbed into the second turnbuckle. He waited there for a full ten seconds before finishing. “…KENNEDAAAAYYYY…â€
With that, Kennedy let go of the microphone and got back into the ring.
Kurt Angle’s music then began to play. After his theatrics, he came down and entered the ring, Karen waiting at ringside.
Main Event: Number One Contenders Match
Mr. Kennedy Vs. Kurt Angle
Kennedy simply charged out of his corner and viciously attacked Angle with rights and lefts, quickly forcing Angle back into his corner. Kennedy continued his assault, only breaking when the Ref’s count reached 4. Still, he stayed on Angle, patting his cheek with one hand and taunting him.
Angle took the opportunity to get a right hand in on Kennedy, knocking him away. Angle rushed forward and delivered a European uppercut to Kennedy, knocking him away further. Angle grabbed Kennedy’s arm and launched him at the opposite ropes. Kennedy bounced off and attempted a running knee lift, which Angle ducked under. Kennedy bounced off the ropes and ran into a double leg takedown from Angle.
Wasting no time, Angle rolled Kennedy onto his stomach, grabbed his ankle, and stood up to secure the Ankle Lock. Kennedy writhed in pain, trying and failing to shake his leg from Angle’s grip.
Finally Kennedy managed to make it to the bottom rope, and Angle was forced to release him. Angle stomped on Kennedy a few times for good measure, and proceeded to climb the nearby turnbuckle, where Karen happily watched. He made it to the top and leapt off for a moonsault, which Kennedy rolled out of the way from. Angle slammed into the mat and screamed in pain.
Kennedy got to his feet, still limping, as Angle pushed himself to the corner. Kennedy smiled and rubbed the sole of his boot across Angle’s face, smirking at it. After a few seconds of this he ran to the opposite ropes, bounced off, and attempted a low dropkick. Angle rolled out of the way, and Kennedy ended up sailing through the bottom ropes to connect with Karen’s legs. Karen was knocked off the ring, hit her head on the edge, and fell to the ground.
Angle ran to the corner to check on Karen, who was rolling on the ground clutching her face in pain. Kennedy, who had quickly gotten to his feet, grabbed Angle’s shoulder and spun him around. He kicked Angle in the gut, applied a front facelock, and hit Angle with a snap DDT. He went for the cover and Angle kicked out at two.
Kennedy quickly got to his feet, but was punched in the gut by Angle before he could do anything. Angle punched Kennedy again before getting to his feet. Angle grabbed Kennedy’s arm and launched him for the opposite ropes. Kennedy bounced off and ran into a high elbow from Angle. Kennedy spun around from the impact and stumbled away, holding his nose. Angle rushed forward, grabbed Kennedy around the waist, and hit him with a German suplex. Angle rolled to the side, stood up, and hit Kennedy with another German suplex. Again Angle rolled to the side, and this time hit Kennedy with a Release German suplex. Kennedy hit the ground upper-back first, and almost looked like he was going to rise up and slam down on his stomach, but ended up simply falling like a domino onto his back.
Angle slowly got to his feet and grabbed Kennedy’s ankle again, but Kennedy retracted his legs and kicked Angle’s chest before he could use the Ankle Lock. Angle hit the mat on his back and Kennedy slowly got to his feet. Angle stood up, and Kennedy kicked him in the gut. Kennedy crouched down and hoisted Angle up into a fireman’s carry, but Angle slipped out and landed behind Kennedy. Angle quickly grabbed Kennedy and went for the Olympic Slam. Kennedy managed to break Angle’s grip and simply drop to his feet behind Angle.
Angle spun around, and Kennedy kicked him in the gut again. This time Kennedy grabbed Angle in a front facelock, lifted Angle up, and hit him with a spike DDT. Kennedy went for the cover and made the three-count.
“WOW, what a match!†Paul London exclaimed. “One reversal after another! If we could get a replay… here we go, Kurt Angle first countered Mr. Kennedy’s rolling slam thing, then Kennedy countered the Olympic Slam. Only on this third shot was Kennedy able to hit the spike DDT on Angle… Green Bay Plunge, I believe it’s called. Kennedy’s rolling slam?â€
“That really was something.†Miz replied. “Fighting over who’s on top, I know how that goes.â€
“Would you please??†London demanded. “Hey wait a minute, it doesn’t look like Karen Angle is doing too well…â€
Karen had to be helped to her feet by two officials. She was still holding her face with both hands.
“And the winner of the match, and YOUR Number One Contender…†Mr. Kennedy suddenly yelled out. “…MMMISTAAAARRR… KENNEDAAAYYY…â€
He waited a moment. “…KENNEDAAAYYY…â€
“Well what was she doing standing on the ring anyway? Get out of the ring if you don’t want to get hurt.†Miz said.
London shrugged. “Well ladies and gentlemen, next week Christian Cage will be defending his title against Mr. Kennedy, and hopefully we’ll have a better commentator than Miz here.â€
“Yeah, sure.†Miz replied, crossing his arms and looking away.
