(pyros go off as we are live in the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City)
Style: We like to welcome everybody to the first ever XPW Saturday Night Extreme here in the Hammerstein Ballroom in the New York City.
Raven: This place brings back some great memories and some painful ones but their isn't a more perfect place in the world for this show to debut from.
Styles: The fans have been outside all morning watining to get it after the XPW's successful launch on Wednesday XPW Anarchy.
Raven: This is spreading like a wild fire. The atmosphere here tonight is electric as the fans are ready to get this thing started.
Styles: Last Wednesday was a historic night in wrestling history. The first ever Anarchy aired and what a show it was.
Raven: If anybody missed that Samoa Joe VS CM Punk match has to see it. It had to be one of the best matches I have ever seen.
Styles: Then after that masterpiece of wrestling is will be forever marred by Adam Copeland's sneak attack to end it
Raven: After talking to Samoa Joe last night, he has caught the new champ's attention. He has challenged Adam Copeland to a match for next week's Anarchy show.
Styles: That should be a great one. Right now we have our opening bout of the evening. We will see Paul Burchill one on one with Kaz.
Raven; I really like this Paul Burchill, he will to anything to win and what a vicious streak this man has.
style: But will it be enough to offset Kaz's athleticism?
(Music hits as crowd goes wild as Kaz hits the ring, the crowd starts booing as Paul Burchill comes down wearing a dark hood)
Styles: What a great debut for Burchill. He looked very impressive here tonight. But what disrespectul for Kaz. I can't think of anything more degrading
then to have someone spit on you like that.
Raven: He shouldn't respect Kaz, he beat him. Kaz had him on the ropes but that finisher he calls the "Royal Treatment" can put anybody away. Maybe
he will hit you with that Styles
Styles: I won't step in the ring with that man.
Raven: Toughen up Styles.
Styles: We'll be right back
(commercial break)
Styles: Welcome back tonight we have the XPW Television Title match between Antonio Banks and Rey Mysterio Jr. The big question is, can Rey wrestle
tonight after the aftermatch assault by Shelton Benjamin. He is backstage with out reporter Tammy Sytch right now.
(We go backstage as Tammy Stych has Rey Mysterio Jr.)
Tammy: Rey everybody wants to know after that post match attack by Shelton Benjamin on Anarchy. Can you wrestle tonight in your match for the
XPWTelevision Title
Rey: Tammy, I'm not going to lie my knee is injured but that isn't going to keep me out tonight. I want that XPW Television Title and this won't keep
me from competing.
(Right then Antonio Banks enter the picture)
Antonio: You are crazy Rey. Do you think you can compete with the "MVP" on an injured leg. Hell you can't be me when you are totally healthy.
Rey: Well we will see tonight won't we.
(Rey and Antonio get face to face but Antonio quickly pokes Rey in the eye and delivers a stiff kick to the knee of Rey. Banks quickly picks up a nearby steel
chair and gives the knees some vicious chair shots. Finally security pulls him off.
Antonio: (screaming) That's what you get when you try to play with the "MVP"
(We see Rey holding his knee, crying out in pain as we go to commercial)
(After we leave the sight of Rey Mysterio we see a white trailer home with broken down cars and trash scattered in the yard.A man walks out of the trailer
holding what looks like beer bottle)
Man: Hey Mark get your ass out here we have company.
Mark(appears out of the trailer) What the hell are you talking about Jay?
Jay: Look the television people are he from that snazzy new company XPW where we are going to rassle at (he takes a drink from the bottle)
Mark: (charging the camera) What do you want? (he shoves the camera)
Jay: Calm down Mark. I think they came to see how the Brisco Boys live.
Mark: They shouldn't care how we live. They should only care about what we do in the ring.
Jay: You're right. (he looks into the camera) For the past few years, the Briscoes have been the best tag team in wrestling. We have been held down
since we aren't the best looking or the most physically fit.
Mark: I just want to kick some ass Jay.
Jay: Don't worry Mark we will because we will be coming to the XWF very soon.
(Mark charges at the camera man again and Jay stops him. Soon they start to fight each other)
Cameraman: Let's get the hell out of here.
(We go back to the announcers)
Styles: Good Lord. Those Briscos are lunatics. They are fighting each other because their isn't nobody else around. I hope our crew gotta out there with out
anybody getting injured.
Raven: The tag teams that are going to compete here our the top of the line but they all should take notice off the Briscoes.
Styles: We will see some of the tag teams here tonight in the XPW Tag Team Title Gauntlet that is tonight's main event.
Raven: Heyman has promised me that this will be one of the most exciting matches anybody has seen in a long time.
(commercial break)
(When we come back we see paramedics loading Rey onto a stretcher with his knee in a gigantic brace. Paul Heyman walks up to the stretcher)
Rey: Did you see what happened? Two nights, two sneak attacks. I want them both when I'm healthy.
Heyman: Don't worry about Rey. I will take care of Antonio Banks tonight. I will find a suitable replacement.
Rey: Make him pay!!
(The ambulance door shuts as Heyman looks angry)
Heyman (talks to the camera) Banks, if you are watching backstage, don't think I'm going to just hand you the XPW Television Title now. You have to earn it.
I will find a replacement wrestler if I have to call everyone I know. Nobody and I mean nobody ruins my show.
(Heyman storms off as we go back to the ring)
Styles: Banks took out his opponent for tonight's matchup. What a coward!
Raven: He must have thought he would win the match via forfeit. But now instead of wrestling an injured Rey Mysterio, he has to wrestler a mystery man. I think
the plan has backfired on Banks.
(Music hits as Teddy Hart appears to a mixed reaction from the crowd)
(The crowd goes wild as Bryan Danielson appears as the opponent)
Styles: Look at this, these two are arguably the future of our business. Teddy Hart and Bryan Danielson are main eventers waiting to happen.
Raven: They have been showing it around the world the last few years but now they finally get a platform here in the US to show what they can do.
Styles: They're two of the many wrestlers that will be competing in the XPW Extreme Title Tournament starting next Wednesday on Anarchy.
Raven: The Extreme Title is Paul Heyman's new idea. A title that can only be won by submission or a 5 count with no rules at all. He says this will show
who is the toughest men here in the XPW.
Styles: What a performance by these two young stars
Raven: If every wrestler performs like this in the hunt for the XPW Extreme Title, Heyman will have another hit idea on his hands that everybody in this business
will try to copy
(we go to commercial)
(We come back to the parking lot area where a limo has pulled up. Christian Cage and Chris Jericho exit the limo as Tammy Sytch catches them)
Tammy: Guys what brings you here tonight to XPW Extreme Saturday.
Christian: (looks over Tammy) We came here to see you beautiful.
Jericho: (looking at Tammy also) Yeah we heard you were lonely tonight so these two Sexy Beasts came here to keep you happy.
(Tammy smiles)
Christian (looking at her) Wipe that smile off your face. You couldn't have taken us seriously. We can have younger better looking babes then you.
Jericho: Everybody knows that you have been around the block Tammy.
(Tammy is now visibly upset, as she starts to cry. Christian grabs the mike from her, as she runs off)
Christian: Go Cry!! (he turns to the camera) We are here for one reason and one reason only. We are here for the XPW Tag Team Title Gauntlet Match tonight.
Jericho: We heard that the Hardys, LAX, and AJ Styles & Christopher Daniels have signed on for the match. So we see this as an easy win.
Christian (laughing) So Paul Heyman shine up those titles real nice and get them ready for us.
(They laugh some more and throw down the mike and walk off)
Styles: Why did they have to insult Tammy like that? She is a beautiful woman.
Raven: She must have not been their type Joey. Everybody has their tastes but what a list of tag teams for tonight's match.
Styles: The Hardys, LAX, Styles and Daniels and Cage and Jericho, I don't know who the favorites in that is.
Raven; I'm putting my money on Cage and Jericho, Joey.
Styles: That is a good pick, do you a predicition on this next match for the XPW Television Title Raven?
Raven: We don't even know who Bank's opponent is you idiot. So no I don't have a predicition.
(The crowd gives a rounding set of boos to "The MVP" after we see a replay of his actions earlier tonight)
(The fans quiet down anxiously waiting for the naming of Rey Mysterio's replacement)
(Music fills the arena as Kofi Kingston emerges)
Styles: It's Kofi Kingston. The high flying superstar from Ghana, Raven.
Raven: Banks can't be happy with this decision. Kingston is one of the most onotrthodox wrestlers in this business.
Banks: I like to thank everybody that has made this possible. Thanks to my parents, my high school football coach Mr. Wilson and most importantly myself.
(The crowd boos while Banks celebrates like he just won the Super Bowl)
Styles: Antonio is really full of himself. He shouldn't show up Kofi like this. I find it very disrespectful.
Raven: Give him his due Joey. Being the first ever XPW Television Champion is a historic achievement. I find nothing wrong with this celebration.
(Banks keeps on celebrating as confetti and balloons fall from the arena as we go to commercial)
(We come back and Banks is still in the ring celebrating, then he is interrupted by Shelton Benjamin)
Shelton: "Hey Banks."
("The MVP now realizes that someone is talking to him)
Shelton: What the hell are you celebrating? The only reason you won this match is because I injured Rey Mysterio Jr. for ya"
(The MVP is angry)
Shelton: All the people here know that you couldn't have beaten Rey Mysterio Jr. You were lucky that Heyman didn't give me the match as Rey's replacement which
I think I deserved.
(Banks starts taunting Shelton to come down to the ring)
Shelton: You want a piece of Shelton Benjamin. You gotta it.
(Shelton runs down to the ring and he is met outside by Banks, They start exchanging blows as security comes and pull them apart. Heyman shows up on the ramp.
Heyman: Hey if you too want to fight. Let them fight. Get a ref out here. Banks you can defend your title right now.
(A confused Banks looks as Heyman as a referee sprints out to the ring. Benjamin looks very happy)
The mystery man grabs the belt and fastens it around a jubilant Shelton Benjamin. The man grabs the mic.
Man: "My name is "Superstar" Larry Sweeny and I will like to introduce to everybody the rightful XPW Television Champion Shelton Benjamin.'
(Benjamin and sweeney hugs as the arena is in disbelief of the quick title change)
Styles: Who is this Larry Sweeney? What is his relationship with Shelton Benjamin?
Raven: I would take an educated guess and say they know each other.
Styles: That is obvioius. Antonio Banks' celebration was his whole title reign.
Raven; That has to be a blow to his huge ego.
(we got to commercial as we see Banks finally stirring)
(We come back as Styles and Raven recap the show)
Styles: Its time for the main event. The XPW Tag Team Title Gauntlet.
Raven: Yep Joey the rules are simple. We have four teams. You just have to keep on winning until there is only one team left.
Styles: Expert analysis Raven.
Raven: I try.
(Music hits as LAX comes down, the crowd gives them a mixed reaction, they are followed by a roaring ovation for the Hardys. Jeff and Matt roar down
to the ring)
Copeland: Is this what you want Heyman, huh?
(crowd boos)
Copeland: After what you did to me last night, my two old pals here called me up to make sure you don't shaft them too tonight.
(crowd boos)
Copeland: And I was sitting here watching the show and eating my popcorn and here you come making this a NO DQ match. So I had to put things right. Heyman you better start treating us with the respect we deserve or things are going to get ugly around here
(crowd boos)
(The three leave together as the fans throw trash at them while they walk up the ramp)
Styles: I didn't even know Copeland was in the arena tonight. I don't think Heyman will be happy with this outcome. They made an absolute mockery of this main
event. What should have been a great matchup is destroyed by the antics of these three opportunists.
Raven: You can say Heyman opened up Pandora's Box by making this a No DQ match. He thought LAX would have the advantage to do their street fighting
abilites but they were outsmarted.
Styles: They weren't outsmarted they were cheated. There was three of them.
Raven: Styles for someone that looks smart you are really dumb. It was a NO DQ match how can you cheat?
Styles: It was supposed to be two on two, not three on two. I don't care if it was NO DQ or not it wasn't fair.
Raven: That is debatable but what isn't is that Christian Cage and Chris Jericho our are first XPW World Tag Team Champions.
(The show ends with a final shot of Edge, Christian and Jericho at the top of the ramp, arms raised as the crowd throws trash at them.
(The beginning shows a recap of Anarchy, with Banks and Rey moving on to face/off for the XPW Television Title tonight, "The Edge" Adam Copeland's 20 secoND match with RVD, Samoa Joe and CM Punk in an epic match with Joe walking away the first ever XPW World Heavyweight Champion and then the sneak attack by "The Edge" Adam Copeland to end the show.)

Paul Burchill VS Kaz
Final Moments
Kaz has just hit with a shining wizard as heads to the top rope. He comes off but Burchill moves. He hits Kaz with a clothsline followed by a big boot to the stomach. He then
executes a textbook swinging neckbreaker as Kaz quickly grabs his neck. Burchill smiles and waits for Kaz to get up. As Kaz rises Burchill gives him a kick to
the stomach and hits a Pedigree. He gets the three count.
Winner in 8:34

Styles: What a great debut for Burchill. He looked very impressive here tonight. But what disrespectul for Kaz. I can't think of anything more degrading

holding Hart in an grounded cruicifix and then delivering vicious elbows to the side of Hart's head sending him to the mat. The crowd laps it up as Danielson goes right back to
hits a tornado ddt and then quickly applies a Fujiwara arm bar. It looks like Hart will give it up but he somehow get his leg under the rope for the break up. Danielson goes to apply the pressure but Hart somehow
catches Danielson in an Fujiwara arm bar of his own. Danielson is feeling the pain as he gets his leg under the rope also to break up the hold. Danielson crawls to
the corner trying to shake off the effects of the armbar as Hart springboards and hits a dropkick to the face of Bryan. Hart drags him out of the corner and quickly
scales the top rope. He comes off with the "Open Heart Surgery" he hits it. Hart plays to the crowd as Danielson is laid out. Hart keeps on playing to the crowd as he
slowly goes for the cover. As Hart sloppily makes the cover,Danielson reverses the pin attempt into the "Cattle Mutilation". The fans and Hart is shocked with
reversal and Teddy has to tap out.

Heyman appears on the ramps with mic in his hand.

debate outside as finally Jericho steps back in. He catches a chair shot to the back followed by another. A third attempt by Hernandez is missed as Jericho ducks. Jericho then delivers a low
blow on the big man. Jericho makes the tag to Christian as Hernandez tags in Homicide. Homicide ducks a clothsline attempt by Cage and counters with a bulldog. He then quickly sets up and hits
a Copkilla on Cage. Hernandez runs back in and hits Jericho before he can break up the pin attempt. The ref though tries to get those two out of the ring as someone jumps the barricade. Homicide who is trying to
get the referee to come and make the count turns around and catches a Spear. Adam Copeland is shown as the man that has delivered it. The ref then makes the three count as Hernandez doesn't know what
happened.
Winner and new XPW World Tag Team Champions
Christian Cage & Chris Jericho in a total time 12:22
Copeland: Is this what you want Heyman, huh?
(crowd boos)
Copeland: After what you did to me last night, my two old pals here called me up to make sure you don't shaft them too tonight.
(crowd boos)
Copeland: And I was sitting here watching the show and eating my popcorn and here you come making this a NO DQ match. So I had to put things right. Heyman you better start treating us with the respect we deserve or things are going to get ugly around here
(crowd boos)
(The three leave together as the fans throw trash at them while they walk up the ramp)
Styles: I didn't even know Copeland was in the arena tonight. I don't think Heyman will be happy with this outcome. They made an absolute mockery of this main
event. What should have been a great matchup is destroyed by the antics of these three opportunists.
Raven: You can say Heyman opened up Pandora's Box by making this a No DQ match. He thought LAX would have the advantage to do their street fighting
abilites but they were outsmarted.
Styles: They weren't outsmarted they were cheated. There was three of them.
Raven: Styles for someone that looks smart you are really dumb. It was a NO DQ match how can you cheat?
Styles: It was supposed to be two on two, not three on two. I don't care if it was NO DQ or not it wasn't fair.
Raven: That is debatable but what isn't is that Christian Cage and Chris Jericho our are first XPW World Tag Team Champions.
(The show ends with a final shot of Edge, Christian and Jericho at the top of the ramp, arms raised as the crowd throws trash at them.
