* The official CWE One Night Stand recap video plays. Next up, the R3b37710n opener plays, featuring Nonpoint's "Alive and Kicking." *
The huge opening pyro goes off. We then can hear a loud roar of fans. Then, the announcers greet us.
Josh Matthews: Welcome to the first ever Monday Night live televised show since the CWE reunited. And welcome back to R3b37710n, it sure has been awhile since we were last on TV, but we're more than happy to be back.
Don West: Oh, absolutely, we are more than happy to be back, and let me tell you. I'm honored to be apart of this company, and I'm glad Eric Bischoff brought it back.
Josh Matthews: Amen, just imagine where the wrestling world would be without him.
John Morrison's music plays as he heads to the ring with Melina. They ignore the "paparazzi," and do not perform their famous "splits" entrance. Instead, they walk down to the ring like everyone else.
John Morrison: Sshhh...sshhh...I know you all may want my body more than my words, but listen up. One Night Stand. The reunion of possibly the biggest company to enter the wrestling world yet. Although I wasn't there in my very own hometown, we all saw...or at least I hope we did. At New Year's Revolution, I proved why I am the greatest wrestler to ever step foot into this ring, and why I am "The Guru of Greatness" and "The Sharman of Sexy" as I defeated Batista for what used to be his World Heavyweight Championship! I'm pretty sad for all of you not being able to see your hometown hero live, but anyway, I'm understanding that R3b37710n General Manager Eric Bischoff has declared that I face someone at the Royal Rumble...well Eric, before I accept, I am demanding that my title comes back to me! Bischoff, you may not remember, but I was the last R3b37710n champion before we went back on the air. So Mr. GM, if you don't mind stepping into the ring and telling me who my opponent will be, then do so right away.
Eric Bischoff's music plays, as he heads to the ring. SoCal Val gives him a mic.
Eric Bischoff: John. Since you're so deserving of the championship belt, why don't you defend your title tonight!
John Morrison: Woah, woah, woah, your calling this
my title?
Eric Bischoff: That's right, I am. But you know what, that title may not be in your hands too long after tonight, because I've decided how this is gonna work. Twenty superstars on the R3b37710n roster will compete in a series off matches over the next couple of weeks. The winners will be competing in the next big CWE event, Battle Royal, in the Battle Royal! And from there on, we will determine who faces you for your title at Fully Loaded I.
John Morrison: Oh my god, I'm so scared, the Battle Royal match-up, oh my god!
Eric Bischoff: Oh, wait, wait, wait. Last week, the R3b37710n draft show edition on CWE.com told us that Shawn Michaels has chose to sign with R3b37710n! So, I was thinking, and...giving him a shot at
your title could be the least we could do as a way of welcoming him here...
if you know what I mean. Because tonight, one on one in the ring...Shawn Michaels enters the Palace of Wisdom as he faces "The Champ," "The Sharman of Sexy," The Guru of Greatness," John Morrison!
Eric Bischoff exists the ring with a huge smile on his, leaving Melina and Morrison angry in the ring. Eric Bischoff raises his arms at the top of the entrance ramp, as we head to commercial.

Josh Matthews: It looks like the first match on R3b37710n since over a few months ago is almost underway!

Don West: Keep in mind folks, whoever wins this will receive a slot in the Battle Royal.
{Bell Ring}
Over the Top Rope Challenge - CM Punk vs. Kurt Angle w/ Karen Angle
The match begins with a long stare-down. After a few seconds of circling around a few times, Angle and Punk lock arms. Angle gains a quick advantage, by grabbing Punk's mid section. He begins circling around Punk, but Punk is angle to fight out. Angle starts off the match very well, and this shows as he pushes CM Punk back to the turnbuckle, overpowering him. Punk puts his hand under the rope, but this has no effect in this particular match type. Angle begins hitting multiple chops, giving Punk no chance to get out. After awhile, Punk holds his chest and kneels down to the mat, holding onto the bottom rope. Angle shows no mercy, immediately picking CM Punk up off the ground. Punk gets up, and is Irish whipped heavily into the turnbuckle. He hits the steel post hard, and slams backwards causing a loud noise to be heard across the arena. Angle grabs his legs and tries to pick him up, but Punk kicks him in the face. Angle recoils back, but gets back in the match, by hitting Punk with a quick forearm. After catching him off guard, Angle gets the advantage by almost tossing him out of the ring! However, Punk rolls over quickly, and runs to the other side of the ring. When he gets there, he quickly jumps up to the top turnbuckle, then bounces back to hit a spinning clothesline! Miraculously, Angle catches Punk in mid-air, then drops Punk down to the mat, hitting an Angle Slam! He then gets up and begins to taunt the crowd. After Punk hits the mat, he comes to pick him up, but Punk gets up on his own. No matter for Angle, as he just simply grabs Punk to hit a belly-to-belly suplex! Punk flies across the ring. Angle gets up, and picks Punk up off the mat. He pushes him over the top rope, but fails to get his feet on the floor. Punk holds onto the rope as hard as he can, but that certainly will not stop Angle from trying to win the match. He keeps trying to push Punk off the rope, and eventually does! But Punk athletically stays in the match, as he holds onto the rope with his hands, and only his hands. His feet look to be just a couple inches away from the floor.
Josh Matthews: It looks like this could be the end for The Punker!
Don West: Do you see how close Punk is from dropping to the mat? His feet are just a few inches from the floor!
Punk flips his boy over completely, landing on the mat. On the way back to the ring, Angle was kicked in the face! After Punk lands safely, he charges him, but he ducks under Punk's arm. Punk tries to turn around, but Angle has him in position for a German suplex! He does end up hitting this offensive maneuver, but Punk back-flips over, landing safely on his feet again! Angle notices and charges him with a heavy clothesline, but Punk ducks under his swinging arm! After Angle misses, Punk grabs a hold of his head, and hits a swinging neck-breaker! Angle's neck hits the mat extremely hard, causing him to flip his body completely over. He picks Angle up off his feet, and Irish whips him into the ropes. Angle runs back to Punk, and is hit by a Shining Wizard! After Angle begins to get groggy, Punk hits a few slaps, then a couple of chops. Angle is forced into going back to corner of the ring, seeking comfort on the top turnbuckle. Punk continues the beat-down. He hits a few more chops, then a Roundhouse Kick! Angle falls back to turnbuckle again. Punk raises his arms high, calling for another maneuver. These fans seem to support The Punker. After he calls to the fans, he hits a huge charging high knee to Angle's face! After being hit in the mouth by Punk's knee, he wobbles around. Punk raises his arm up again, the picks Angle up in a fireman's carry position! It looks as if Punk is calling for the GTS! It is then that he tosses Angle up in the air, hitting him directly onto his knee! Punk hits the GTS! He falls to the mat, in loss of energy. He begins resting there for a second, but Angle can be seen trying to crawl to the ring post for safety. He does reach the ring post, but Punk gets up off the mat and chases after him. Punk grabs his leg, but Angle manages to push him back! Punk falls back, but hits a few stomps on Angle. He then grabs a hold of Angle's head, and tosses him onto the ring apron! Punk tries to hit him, but Angle flips him over to the ring apron as well! They begin exchanging blows, left, right, left, right, left, right. Eventually, Angle ducks down, then goes under the middle rope! Karen Angle then hits a low blow on Punk, and the fans do not like it! Angle heads over to the side of the ring, as Karen grabs Punk's leg, forcing him to stay in a helpless position! On the inside of the ring, Angle charges at Punk! Luckily enough, Punk uses the energy in his leg to kick Karen away from him. This happens just as Angle comes closer, and Punk flips Angle over the top rope, landing on the mat which lays outside of the ring! Punk wins the match!
WINNER: CM Punk, at 11:43
Tony Chimmel: Here is your winner, and Battle Royal participant #1, CM Punk!
Don West: Did you see that?! Punk was able to escape The Angle's plan!
After Angle hits the mat, Punk falls to ring apron on his back, then rolls over on the ring mat. He raises his hands high, but is jumped by Kurt Angle! Angle hits a few forearms, then hits an Angle Slam! He lets out a loud, "That's damn true!," then grabs a chair from So Cal Val. He slides one chair under Punk's face, then gets another! Karen watches on in happiness, as Kurt hits a chair-con-to! Karen is seen clapping her hands, as Angle holds up his arms.
* Commercial Break *
Josh Matthews: Welcome back, and before the break, we learned that CM Punk would be the first R3b37710n superstar to compete in the Battle Royal match-up.

Robert Roode: Shut the hell up! I don't give a damn WHAT your name is! Now as I was TRYING to say, Eric Bischoff...you make me sick. You make me WANNA PUKE. How the hell was I not one of the superstars chosen to have a shot at the Battle Royal next month? I am the GREATEST, RICHEST, wrest-
Balls Mahoney and Kelly Kelly walk by.
Balls Mahoney: Richest? Pssh...the only thing you are is the BIGGEST, stuck up, arrogant, douche bag in CWE history!

* Commercial Break *
* Footage of the R3b37710n Rewind is shown, this time featuring Serotonin at One Night Stand. *
Josh Matthews: Welcome back to R3b37710n, and it looks as if we have Serotonin backstage. Camera crew, can you catch up with Anastacia in the back?
The camera goes backstage. There, we see Anastacia in the back. Beside her, are Christy Hemme, and her team of Monsters.
Anastacia: Hello everyone. Standing beside are Christy Hemme and Serotonin. Guys, can I get your words on your match against The Christian Coalition coming up next? Or...or, do I need to ask you, Christy?
Christy Hemme: Listen Abigail...
Anastacia: Anastacia.
Christy Hemme: Whatever. Let me tell you something. My team of...
deranged...
psychotic...insane, beasts will do whatever they need to get the CWE Championship back to Raven. And tonight...I guarantee they defeat The Christian Coalition, then go on to Fully Loaded to put the title back into Raven's arms.
{New Setting}
Serotonin walks off, as their music hits the PA System. We come back to the ringside area, and get a perfect view of the entrance tunnel. Serotonin walks through.
Don West: Wow.
Josh Matthews: Those sick men are two of the most deranged superstars you may ever find.
Don West: No arguing on that one.
Tony Chimmel: The following contest is part two of the Over the Top Rope Challenge match series. All eight superstars consist of two teams, that must have all four members eliminated in order for the match to end. Once the team captain, or all three of the other members are eliminated, the other team will be declared the winner. Introducing first, weighing in at 275 pounds, accompanied to the ring by Christy Hemme, this is...Martyr!
Hemme leads Martyr out to the ring. Martyr respectfully holds the ropes down for his escort, Christy Hemme. Once she gets in, Martyr gets in as well. Hemme takes Martyr's hood off him, then she steps down off the apron.
Josh Matthews: And here comes The Coalition.
Christian Cage's music plays, as he leads the rest of The Coalition out.
Tony Chimmel: And one fourth of his opponents, weighing in at 235 pounds, from Gainesville, Georgia, this is...AJ Styles!
{Bell Ring}
The Christian Coalition vs. Serotonin w/ Christy Hemme
The match begins, shortly after AJ steps into the ring. Martyr and him square up to start off. They begin to circle around the ring, and lock up in arms. Martyr hits a quick hip toss, forcing Styles to land heavily on the mat. AJ looks up at Martyr, who stands above him strong, showing a little intimidation. AJ rises up and tries to hook up in arms again with Martyr, but his move is reversed as Martyr ducks under his swinging arms. Martyr then hits a Russian leg sweep on Styles, forcing him to land neck-first onto the mat. AJ gets up to one knee again, making the same intimidating face. On the outside of the ring, Hemme seems to be overly impressed with Martyr's ring ability that has been displayed so far in this match, and she shows it by clapping and cheering Martyr on. The clock appears on the screen, showing us that :38 remains till the next superstar will come out. Back in the ring, we see AJ Styles, who gets back up to his feet, and attempts a clothesline on Martyr! However, Martyr ducks under his arm, then Irish whips Styles into the ropes. AJ almost falls out of the ring, but manages to hang on. He then gets up to his feet and stands on the apron. Before long, Martyr charges him, but is hit in the mid section by AJ's head! Martyr bends over and holds onto his mid section, but AJ jumps up for a springboard, and hits a diving fist off the top rope! The clock is now at :12, and Styles does his famous "Phenomenal" taunt. AJ heads over to the corner to regain energy, as the fans begin to count down while looking at the numbers appear on the PA System...:10 - :09 - :08 - :07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - :01. Raven's music plays again, and it has just been revealed that the third entrant is...Havok! Havok quickly heads down to the ring, Kendo stick in hand, and immediately hits AJ with it in the mid section. Styles bends over, and is almost hit by an Overdrive from Havok. However, he manages to reverse Havok's move, then hits a dropkick. Martyr suddenly awakens, but is stopped from charging AJ when he gets hit by a fist! AJ hits multiple left and rights, back and forth, but before he can gain a big upper hand, Havok dives across the ring and hits a knee thrust on AJ. He falls to the mat, then is hit by lots and lots of boots by Martyr and Havok. Then, Havok picks Styles up from the mat, and forcing him to "assume the position," allowing Martyr to hit him with the Kendo stick. Martyr gets ready to attack, as Christy Hemme can be seen on the outside yelling "hit him!" Martyr finally ends up swinging the cane, but AJ removes his body from Havok's arms! Martyr accidentally hits Havok in the groin! Havok bends over in pain, as Hemme from the outside lets out a loud "NO!" Back inside of the ring, AJ gets up off the ground and hits a spinning wheel kick on Martyr. The PA System puts up the clock again, and it reads: :12 - :11 - :10 - :09 - :08 - :07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - :01!
Don West: Who's it gonna be?
Christian's music plays, and we see nothing, as the camera takes a good shot of the entrance tunnel. After awhile, the sirens begin playing, and it is revealed that Scott Steiner will be the next participant to enter the ring. Before he heads to the ring, he takes off his steel head coating. AJ Styles' face shows a great amount of joy, as he watches Christy, who stands outside the ring, make a face as if she is in great disgust. Steiner wastes a little bit of time before coming to the ring, but no worries for Styles. By time Steiner gets in the ring, Martyr begins hitting AJ's mid section multiple times. Steiner heads immediately to save AJ, and succeeds. He begins hammering away at Martyr's face, then hits a belly-to-belly suplex! Martyr hits the mat hard, then Havok tries to attack Steiner, but Steiner hits a belly-to-belly suplex on him, then kisses his muscle. After he wastes a little time, he is caught up by Martyr, but he wastes no time tossing Martyr outside of the ring! The PA System flashes the remaining seconds again, starting at :49. After eliminating Martyr, Steiner heads toward Havok, and hits him with a few forearm thrusts. Havok recoils backwards, and falls to the mat. The clock appears again thanks to the PA System, this time showing :29. Steiner taunts to the crowd and is given a poor amount of hype. The crowd gives him nothing but heat. Before the clock hits :20, Steiner and AJ begin stomping Havok yet again. They do not let him get up off the mat. Eventually, the clock gets down to :8, and the PA System flashes up the numbers again...:07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - :01! Raven's music plays again, and no one comes out. The camera hits the entrance tunnel again. After waiting, out comes Kaz! Styles and Steiner step up on the bottom ropes, and indicate "bring it" to Kaz. Before Kaz gets in the ring, Christy Hemme begins arguing with Styles and Steiner. Luckily enough, Havok catches AJ off guard, and tosses him over the ropes even before Kaz gets in the ring! AJ gets out of the ring, then is tossed heavily onto the barricade by Kaz. After Steiner notices, he heads over to Havok, and they begin brawling. This time, Steiner is caught off guard, as Kaz hits Steiner with a Kendo stick! Steiner hits the mat hard. Kaz and Havok begin to stomp him. The PA System flashes up the clock, this time showing that 1:33 is remaining. The clock begins to count down before it is taken off...1:33 - 1:32 - 1:31 - 1:30 - 1:29 - 1:28 - 1:27. Both team members of Serotonin that are in the ring drive Steiner into the corner after picking him up off the mat. Havok hits an overdrive on Steiner, with help from Kaz, who begins hammering away at Steiner. The clock is now at 1:04, and Serotonin has the upper hand. Steiner gets up, and they now Irish whip him into the corner ring post. Steiner hits the turnbuckle hard, then bounces back, remaining on his feet. Havok and Kaz then decide to Irish whip Steiner again, forcing him into the ropes. He runs back, and dodges Serotonin's double Irish whip attempt! Steiner runs back, then clotheslines both members of Serotonin. Both fall to the mat, as Steiner kisses both muscles, this time hitting an elbow drop on both Havok and Kaz! Although these fans do not like The Christian Coalition, Steiner receives a major pop on that last move!
Don West: Hahaha, did you just see that?!
Josh Matthews: I sure did, what a move there by Steiner!
The PA System puts up another clock, this time the clock flashing :15 - :14 - :13 - :12 - :11 - :10 - :09 - :08 - :07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - :01! It is now time for Christian's next teammate to head to the ring...who's it going to be? The camera heads to the entrance tunnel, as Christian Cage's music keeps playing. After awhile, we see that Cage will be the last to come out, only because Tomko's turn is now! His music plays, as he heads out to the ring. He immediately hits a Yakuza kick on Kaz, after he was just hit by a belly-to-belly suplex by Steiner. After Havok gets back up off the ground, Tomko hits a double arm thrust takedown on him. He falls to the mat, as Tomko continues his attacking streak. He then waits no time after Kaz gets up to clothesline him down to the mat. However, Kaz ducks, but fails to do any damage to Tomko. Steiner jumps Kaz from behind, then beats him with tons of forearms to the mat. Havok is almost hit by Tomko, but he ducks under Tomko's fast-swinging arm, then puts him in position for a German suplex! However, Tomko grabs a hold of Kaz! Tomko is in the middle of two of his opponents, but continues to hold onto Kaz. Before long, Steiner comes up from behind all three men, hitting a German suplex on all of them! The crowd begins cheering even more, then suddenly breaks out a loud, "CWE! CWE! CWE!" chant. After a long period of time, Steiner, who received the best of the move, gets back up to the mat, in attempt of getting Havok out of the ring. The PA System puts up the :58 mark, then counts down to :51, just as Steiner picks up Havok. First he hits the turnbuckles hard, then is nearly pushed out of the ring by Tomko and Steiner. However, Kaz gets up off the mat to his feet, then nails Tomko with the Kendo stick! Steiner rushes toward Kaz, then begins trying to pull the stick away. Hemme gets up on the apron. Back inside the ring, Kaz and Havok both begin hammering away at Steiner, but he refuses to give up the stick. Hemme gets in the ring, just as soon as Steiner takes the cane away from Havok and Kaz. Sadly enough, Christy drops to her knees in fear, begging Steiner not to hit her with the cane. He does some trash talking, but shortly after is attacked by Havok! Havok hits a cheap shot from behind, allowing Christy to catch Steiner off guard! She hits a low blow on him, then Kaz tosses him outside of the ring! Hemme leaves in fear, as the PA System flashes up the clock again, this time showing that little time remains before the next entrant will come out...:08 - :07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - :01 - :00! Out comes the next participant, as Serotonin's music plays!
Don West: What the hell?
Josh Matthews: It looks like Tomko's gonna be outnumbered, three to one!
Raven heads to the ring, cane in hand. The crowd boos, but Hemme seems to like the idea of having a three on-one beat-down. Raven walks down slowly to the ring, then steps in. He immediately hits an axe handle on the fallen Tomko. All three members begin stomping on Tomko, and do not stop at all. After awhile, Raven signals for both Havok and Kaz to stop. They do obey their team leader, of course. The PA System flashes up the numbers...:48 - :47 - :46 - :45 - :44 - :43, then is taken off the screen by the PA System management crew. Raven then signals Havok and Kaz to pick up Tomko off his feet. They pick him up, but he reverses, and smashes their heads up against each other. They fall back, but Raven leads his team back to gaining the upper hand by driving his arms into Tomko before he can fight back! The clock drops down to the :30 mark, as Tomko hits the mat hard. Havok and Kaz pick Tomko up, but take him back down shortly after with help from Raven. At this point in the match, Tomko can barely continue. Raven and Kaz stand still, as Havok begins punching Tomko in the face with multiple lefts and rights. The PA System flashes up the clock again...:17 - :16 - :15 - :14 - :13 - :12 - :11 - :10 - :09 - :08 - :07 - :06 - :05 - :04 - :03 - :02 - 01! Christian Cage's music plays, and we already know who the next participant to come out will be. Cage wastes not even five seconds getting to the ring, for he jumps in quickly after running down the ring aisle, and begins attacking all three remaining members of Serotonin without even taking his entrance attire off. He hammers away at Kaz, hits an Unprettier on him, hammers away at Raven, then tosses Havok out of the ring! Now that Havok is out, only two superstars remain on each team. Cage pushes Raven into the corner and gets up on the turnbuckle hitting the famous "ten punches" move, but is interrupted at the eighth when Kaz crashes his back up against one of Raven's canes! He then flips Cage all the way over the turnbuckle, and both members of Serotonin attempt to push Cage off! Cage begins to struggle in attempt to hang on, but he manages to last till Tomko gets up. Kaz tries to hit Cage off the ring post with the cane, but Tomko takes it away from him, then slings him across the ring! Once he comes back, Tomko hits him with the Yakuza kick! Kaz falls to the mat, as Tomko can be seen holding the stick. He comes up from behind Raven, and Cage yells "hit him" and Tomko does. Raven falls, but is caught by the top turnbuckle. Tomko picks him up, but Kaz gets back up in time to hit a knee slice from behind Tomko, forcing him to the mat. Cage tries to clothesline Kaz, but Kaz ducks! He then locks him up in a headlock. Raven charges him, but Cage escapes! Raven just knocked Kaz out of the ring!
WINNERS: The Christian Coalition, at 14:34
Don West: Look at this! Raven just knocked his own partner out of the ring, giving Christian's Coalition the win!
Josh Matthews: Well we have to take a quick break, but stick around!
* Commercial Break *
Josh Matthews: And we're back, we just saw Christian's Coalition pick up a big win, but take a look at what happened after the break.
{Before the Break}
* On the video: *
------------------------------------------------------------
Raven and Christy tell Kaz to get down on his knees, and be caned. Martyr and Havok come back out to raise his arms up. Raven hits him with the cane.
------------------------------------------------------------
Don West: What sick people! Why beat your teammates because you lost a match?! You win like a team, and you lose like a team.
Josh Matthews: Those people are just sickening! Well it looks like we're about to see Melina in action.
Melina heads out to the ring, accompanied by John Morrison and The Miz.
Tony Chimmel: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, accompanied to the ring by John Morrison and The Miz, Melina!
Ashley heads out to the ring, with London & Kendrick.
Tony Chimmel: And her opponent, accompanied to the ring by Paul London and Brian Kendrick, Ashley Massaro!
{Bell Ring}
Ashley w/ London & Kendrick vs. Melina w/ The Miz and John Morrison
The match begins, after the bell rings. Melina immediately jumps upon Ashley, and begins slapping her in the face. Ashley rolls over shortly afterwards, and begins doing the same. Melina manages to escape away from Ashley, as she scoots over to the side of the ring. Ashley charges her, but she hits a drop toehold face-buster, forcing Ashley to land head-first directly onto the mat. Melina goes for a quick hook to the leg, and the referee counts...1 - 2 - kick out by Ashley. Melina gets up off her feet, but does not let Ashley get up. She begins kicking her mid section. Ashley lets out a loud grunt in pain. She manages to get away from Melina, and begins crawling to get to the rope. Before Ashley can get there, Melina begins to continue these vicious kicks to her stomach. Ashley puts her hand under the bottom rope, causing Melina to lay off. Ashley refuses to let go of the rope, but must as Melina pulls her legs. Ashley now lays prone in the center of the ring. Melina grabs her leg, then places it up into the air, resting it behind her own. Melina steps down onto Ashley's foot, then drops backwards, landing hard on the mat! Ashley screams, as Melina has both her head and her legs in a bad position. The referee gets down on the mat to see if Ashley wants to tap out. Ashley does not, so Melina decides to give in. She gets up off her feet, then pulls Ashley up by her hair. Ashley makes a noise as if she is going through tons of pain, as Melina locks her up in position for a suplex. Melina tries to pick her up off her feet, but she locks her leg into Melina's. Ashley then tries to fight back by hitting an elbow into Melina's rib area. Melina jumps back a little bit. Ashley begins running the ropes, and coming back to Melina's direction. Once she reaches Melina, she is hit by a hard clothesline. She flips all the way over backwards. It is then that Melina rolls her over, and sits down on her back. Ashley tries to get away, but cannot. Melina pulls Ashley's hair. She begins screaming, as her back extends too far. She is forced into tapping out.
WINNER: Melina w/ John Morrison and The Miz, at 3:18
Josh Matthews: How humiliating! Ashley was just destroyed by Melina!
Don West: Oh, now come on, what is this?!
John Morrison and The Miz get into the ring. Melina begins kicking Ashley again, as London and Kendrick attempt to save her. Both London and Kendrick begin brawling with The Miz and John Morrison, but The Miz escapes. He grabs a chair from Tony Chimmel, then jumps back into the ring. The Miz smashes Kendrick in the head. Kendrick falls to the ground, as his tag team partner begins brawling with The Miz. It is then that John Morrison gets up off the turnbuckle and jumps London from behind. He falls to the ground, then Morrison grabs a chair from under the ring. They wait till London gets up, to attempt a two-man chair-con-to! Before we see who just jumped into the ring, London can be seen dodging the move as if someone just pushes him away! The camera gets a better shot, and it is revealed that Shawn Michaels has just came, with a steel chair in hand! The Miz, John Morrison, and Melina scatter away from ringside. Michaels can be seen tending to London & Kendrick and Ashley, as The Miz, John Morrison, and Melina taunt them from the entrance ramp. Morrison shows anger.

Eric Bischoff: You know what
Christian...
Cage! You don't get to pick who gets title shots around here, I do! The deal, is OFF. Now if you win the Battle Royal match-up, you may have your
title shot at Fully Loaded I.
Christian Cage: Oh well come on, my coalition is the most reliable team I could possibly find. I demand...a stipulation! If anyone on my Coalition wins...I win! Face it Eric, we've already come to an agreement! If one of these guys wins, they hand the title shot over to Captain Charisma.
Scott Steiner moves his head up, so that his lifted eyebrow becomes visible.
Christian Cage: Isn't that right guys?!
Scott Steiner: Woah, woah. We give the title shot to you?
Christian Cage: Yeah, that's the deal man. Right guys?
Tomko shakes his head, while AJ makes a face of shame. Steiner begins to look angry.
Tomko: No.
AJ Styles: Well sorry Christian, but this title shot means the world to me, and it's been my dream ever since I was a child that I would-
Black Reign walks into the room. With him, is his pet rat. He begins licking it. The entire Christian Coalition watches on in fear.
Eric Bischoff: What the hell?
AJ Styles: ...
The Christian Coalition scatters out of Eric Bischoff's office.
Eric Bischoff: Guys, wait! Wait! Come back! You can have that title shot you wanted!
Black Reign begins licking is rat. He then licks Eric Bischoff!
Eric Bischoff: Oh my GOD! Help! No! No! No, no!
Black Reign leaves. He takes Misty with him.
* The camera angle changes, after we hear the door squeak. *
Ron Simmons stares at Eric Bischoff for a second. The crowd cheers. They apparently know what's coming next...
Ron Simmons: DAMN!
Simmons leaves Bischoff's office. Eric Bischoff curls up into a ball on his chair. He shakes in fear.
* Commercial Break *
Morrison's music is already playing, by time we come back from the commercial break. As it turns out, he is already in the ring. The lights are out, with just a tiny spotlight on Morrison.
John Morrison: Now it is time folks...this is...Shawn Michaels' fifteen minutes of fame! Michaels, it's time Michaels, that you enter the Palace of Wisdom, and bow down to the greatest champion of all...
Morrison holds the title up.
John Morrison: "The Guru of Greatness," the "The Sharman of Sexy," "The Monday Night Delight..." I am-
Morrison is suddenly interrupted by "Sexy Boy," Michaels' theme music. Morrison and Melina begin to look angry.
Josh Matthews: Here comes The Heartbreak Kid, "HBK," Shawn Michaels.
Don West: And boy, does he want a shot at Morrison's title. I'm pretty sure that he came to R3b37710n for one reason...and that's to take Morrison's title from him.
Fifteen Minutes of Fame World Heavyweight Championship - John Morrison (C) w/ The Miz and Melina vs. Shawn Michaels
{Bell Ring}
Josh Matthews: And this match-up is now underway!
The match begins, with Morrison squaring up with Michaels. This looks to be a technical type match, as he raises his hand high. It is not long, till Michaels steps up to him. He raises his hand up high, as does his entire arm, and they lock up in both hands. Morrison locks in an arm bar, twist and pull, but Michaels rolls over, with a quick front-flip type maneuver. Michaels now rests on his knee. After staring at Morrison for a little while, Michaels gets up. On the outside of the ring, The Miz and Melina cheer for Morrison. The Sharman of Sexy charges Michaels, but Michaels moves out of the way. Morrison hits the turnbuckle heavily, and rests there. Michaels then pulls up to him, and hits an atomic drop. Morrison backs up into the ring post again, and The Heartbreak Kid begins hitting multiple chops on him. He falls forward once Michaels quits, then is hit by a flying forearm. Michaels does his famous "kip-up," getting up off the mat, back to his feet without even using his hands. Once he gets up, he picks The Guru of Greatness up, Irish whipping him into the turnbuckle which lies diagonally from the one Morrison is near. The clock drops down to 13:00, as Michaels begin hitting the famous "ten punch" move. The crowd counts along with the flow Michaels' fist...1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10! Michaels drops down from the middle turnbuckle, as Morrison begins to wobble in grogginess. He falls to the mat. Michaels goes for the early cover, and Referee Earl Hebner drops down to the mat and counts...1 - 2 - kick out by Morrison, just in time! Shawn Michaels gets up off his feet.
Josh Matthews: Oh! Kick out by Morrison just in time, well we've gotta take a quick break, so stick around!
* Commercial Break *
Josh Matthews: And we're back here live on CWE R3b37710n, and it during the break, John Morrison gained the upper hand.
Don West: We're now down to the eleven, half mark, and check out what happened during the break.
{Before the Break}
* On the video: *
------------------------------------------------------------
Michaels tries to suplex Morrison, but Melina distracts the referee. The Miz jumps into the ring, nailing Michaels with a front-flip face-buster. Morrison covers, and Earl Hebner turns around now...1 - 2 - shoulder up by Michaels.
------------------------------------------------------------
Back live, we're down to the 10:58 mark. Michaels struggles to get up to his feet, as Morrison stomps him. Morrison waits awhile, then allows Michaels to get up to his knees. After Michaels' head is trapped inside of Morrison's arms, The Guru of Greatness begins hitting tons of forearms on him. He then intentionally lets Michaels get up to his feet. Once Michaels gets up, Morrison Irish whips him into the corner ring post. Morrison charges The Heartbreak Kid, and hits a dangerous looking knee to the face! Michaels falls to the mat, and Morrison covers. The referee counts...1 - 2 - shoulder up by Michaels, just in time. The PA System puts up to clock again. It is now showing the numbers...10:12 - 10: 11 - 10:10 - 10:09 - 10:08 flash upon the screen in a box. Morrison begins beating Michaels again, with tons more forearms. Michaels manages to get up, however. Morrison puts HBK in a front face-lock position. He then lifts Michaels' legs up to the top rope. The fans boo, as they apparently know what is coming next. Once Morrison gets ready to hit the offensive maneuver, Michaels stands up on the top tope! He then hits a tornado DDT! Michaels crawls over toward Morrison, and puts his arm over his chest. Nick Patrick drops down to the mat and counts...1 - 2 - shoulder up by Morrison! The crowd makes noise as if in shock, as Michaels fights to his feet. He eventually makes it to the corner of the ring. He climbs up to the turnbuckle that lies in the opposite direction of The Miz and Melina's. Michaels jumps off, hitting a stunning Diving Elbow Drop! He hooks to the leg, and the referee counts...but Michaels breaks up the hold to push Melina off the ring apron! The Miz then gets up on the apron, and begins battling the ref to try to get into the ring. Melina rushes across the other side, as Michaels is turned around. Melina hits a low blow on him, forcing him to the mat. Once Melina strikes Michaels, The Miz gets off the apron. Morrison gets up, and picks up Michaels with him. He hits a spinning suplex, and covers...1 - 2 - 3! Morrison escapes a title loss, all thanks to The Miz and Melina!
John Morrison w/ The Miz and Melina, at 5:58
Josh Matthews: No! Not again. This is disgusting! Michael should be the champ, damn it!
Don West: First he had to screw Batista out of his title, then he screws Michaels! No damn way!
Josh Matthews: Well we're about out of time, but join us next week, as the Over the Top Rope Challenge continues. Live from San Diego, so long!
The Miz can be seen from the top of the entrance ramp. Behind him, Melina and John Morrison can be celebrating, at Melina is held in Morrison's arms. The camera switches over to the sickened Shawn Michaels, as the show goes off the air.
