ECW Show Two
Bank Atlantic Center, Atlanta, Georgia
September, 9th, 2008
An image remembering September 11th, six years ago is shown to start the show. A text sending regards to all the family’s, and loved ones of those who passed, on that fatal day. We go to a video package of last week’s event’s, as it closes with Chris Jericho posing with the title. We go to the introduction video, as usual, and it closes with the ECW logo.
PYRO!
PYRO!
PYRO!
Pyro lights up the Bank Atlantic Center as
“Bodies” fills the arena as the Atlanta residents go crazy cheering ECW. We go to ringside as Tazz, and Joey Styles greet us as usual.
Joey Styles: “Welcome ladies, and gentlemen to our second showing of ECW! I’m Joey Styles, and alongside me, my partner, and close friend Tazz.”
Tazz: “Yeah, thanks Joey, sorry I don’t feel the same for you. Well thanks for tuning into our second episode of ECW folks. What a night we have for you guys at home!”
Joey Styles: “Yes, indeed the aftermath of the first ever two hour show starts..”
Tazz: “Actually, it already started you idiot.”
Joey Styles: “You know what shut up ok Tazz.”
Tazz: “Ha you big baby. Did I hurt your feelings?”
Joey Styles: “No Tazz. Your face hurts my eyes sadly.”
Tazz: “Ahah, well just do your job before I get Ric Flair to dress you up like a ballerina again. Ha-ha.”
Joey Styles: “Well its time for our first event of the night! As us here at ECW give the action right away!”
Tazz: “Yes sir, and it’s a tag team match consisting of all the losers from last weeks Elimination Gauntlet match! Where Gregory Helms came out on top after playing his cards right and capitalizing.”
Joey Styles: “In other words he cheated to win the title. He made an unofficial count, as he was NOT the ref. He also, hid backstage like a scared baby.”
Tazz: “You would’ve done the same ok Joey. What do you know?”
Joey Styles: “I know that Elijah Burke had that won last week!”
Tazz: “If he had it he must of dropped it, and Helms picked it up.”
Joey Styles: “Actually it was stolen.”
“Mr. Seventh Rib” plays as Matt Sydal comes out with a microphone in hand. He walks down the entrance way, as the crowd pops the high flying extremist. Matt Sydal walks up the steps, and hops over the top rope, and into the ring. He begins on the microphone. He attempts to speak but the crowds loud cheers cut him off.
Matt Sydal: “Hailing from Missouri, it’s the best wrestler alive! Matt Sydal!”
The crowd pops Sydal.
Matt Sydal: “I am the best ECW has to offer. I proved that after I almost succeeded in capturing the ECW Genesis championship.”
The crowd reply’s with a “what”.
Matt Sydal: “You heard me damnit. I had that match!”
The crowd yells “what” once again.
Matt Sydal: “But I was screwed, I wasn’t even officially pinned. No referee made the one, two, three! I was basically the last man in the match. But no that coward Helms dressed up as usual, but this time as a ref.”
The crowd; “what”
Matt Sydal: “I am mister seventh rib! I am paranormal, as no one can do the things I do. You guys are looking at ECW’s freak! Well actually that’s that Moore kid. But besides him, I am the guy who can do things no one can do! I can take you down, and.. Well air Bourne. Ha-ha. And tonight when I team with my partner, and we win the right for the number one contenders match next week. I will beat my partner. Then, I will beat Helms at Blood Bash. And fulfill the first part of my destiny. See I-”
Voice: “What the heck are you talking about Sydal?”
Elijah Burke comes out from the curtain, with his cap, and vest on ready for action. He has a mic in hand and continues.
Elijah Burke: “Look pal, if anyone had that won. It was me. Are you blind? Even if it wasn’t official, I showed how powerful the Elijah Experience can be, and I had both your shoulders down one… Two… Three…”
Matt Sydal: “No see, Matt Sydal is always aware of his surroundings its called ring awareness mister Burke. I knew it wasn’t a real referee. If it was I would’ve kicked out, now wouldn’t I have?”
Elijah Burke: “I highly doubt it Mathew. Let me ask you a serious question. Are you yourself a little air born? If you know what I mean?”
Elijah drops the microphone, and starts down the ramp. He is now ringside, as Sydal awaits him. Burke takes off his vest, and his cap, and hands it to the staff members. Sydal taunts him a little more inside, before starting to the opposite ropes of Elijah. Sydal rebounds off the ropes, and runs in Elijah’s direction. He looks for a dive through the ropes. But Elijah leaps onto the apron, and get’s his knee up, as Sydal runs straight into it. Sydal holds his forehead in pain, as Elijah climbs the turnbuckle. Elijah measures Sydal as “I’ll Do Anything” hit’s. Elijah looks towards the curtain as Moore comes out running towards the ring. He slides in, and Elijah who got off the turnbuckle, begin exchanging blows. Shannon ducks a big upper cut, as Moore hit’s several shots to the gut. Moore runs past Burke, looking to go for the ropes. Burke turns for Moore, but Moore who hadn’t move behind Burke hit’s his own variation of the Pele Kick. (It was done sideway’s, rather than vertically like Styles) Burke snaps back to the mat, as Moore gets up taunting for more. Sydal who is already up, hits drop kick to the back of Moore sending Moore stumbling into the second rope in guillotine position. Sydal runs at the ropes, and leaps over hitting a big leg drop driving Shannon’s neck into the second rope. Moore bounces off the second rope, and to the floor. “Oooh” hit’s as Chavo Gurrero comes out running to the ring. He takes off his bandanna in the process, and immediately climbs the turnbuckle. Chavo stands on the top rope, and shakes taunting for the frog splash. He goes for it, but Sydal who was on the apron pulled the ropes down, knocking Chavo off the turnbuckle.
Joey Styles: “Well this action is getting out of hand, hopefully this is sorted out when we get back from a add break folks.”
Add Break
Joey Styles: “Welcome back folks, as we finally got things in order here as our referee came out and got all four men in order.”
Tazz: “Yeah things were looking crazy for a second Joey. Here’s what happened while the folks at home were gone.”
Replay: Sydal hit’s Chavo with a tornado DDT off the top rope. Elijah German suplexed Sydal across the ring. Moore hit Elijah with a big Enziguri, knocking Elijah out. Chavo Gurrero hit a big cross body on Shannon Moore. The ref ran down, and stopped the fighting, and got the four men to pair up into teams of two. Moore sided with Sydal, as Elijah sided with Chavo.
Joey Styles: “So here’s the deal it’s a match consisting of the four men who failed to win the extreme rules gauntlet. They paired up into teams, and the winning team goes onto face each other next week for the position to face Gregory Helms for the Genesis championship at Blood Bash.”
Tazz: “The thing is the team has to co-exist right now which will be hard considering they will have to face each other next week, and the brawl that just finished up didn’t help either.”
Joey Styles: “Agree Tazz, this will certainly be an interesting match.”
Match One
Tag Team Top Contenders Match
Matt Sydal, and Shannon Moore vs. Elijah Burke, and Chavo Gurrero
The match starts up with both teams in the ring conversing on who goes in first. Elijah will represent his team first, as will Moore. The two begin circling the ring a bit, as Elijah teases his first move several times. Elijah, and Moore lock up in a elbow, collar tie, with Burke gaining control right away. Moore rolls away from the hold, before it gets bad. Moore goes in this time for the lock up, as Burke goes at him for the lock up, Moore slides behind Moore, and hits several forearms to the back. Elijah teeters forward before Shannon kicks him in the rear end, knocking Elijah into the ropes. Elijah is leaning on his right arm, which is on the rope. Shannon goes for a clothesline, outside until Elijah reveals he was playing possum, and hit a knee to the gut. Elijah grabs Shannon by his hair, and arm tosses him down, and mounts Shannon. Elijah begins pummeling him with huge left’s, and rights showing how impressive his boxing resume really is. Elijah yells “come on punk”, and picks Shannon up by the head before knocking him down with a big right. Matt Sydal gets in the ring to stop it but the ref gets him back telling him to go back on the apron. While the ref is distracted Chavo runs in, and walks over to Elijah. Elijah holds Moore down by the arms, and Chavo hit’s a big stomp to the face. Sydal points at what’s going as Chavo runs back to the corner. The ref turns and warns both men. Chavo, and Elijah both raise their hands as if they don’t have a clue what he is talking about. Elijah dismounts Moore, and gets up. He gets into the empty corner, and stomps hard on the mat. Moore slowly gets back to his feet facing away from Moore, and into the opposite corner. Elijah points at Sydal, and runs to Shannon. He hit’s the two knees to the back before driving Moore face first into the corner, nailing his Elijah Express. Elijah pulls Moore down, and makes the cover. 1.………2.……. Moore gets his foot on the rope, as the ref approached three. Elijah gets up, and walks over to Chavo. He tags him in, and Chavo immediately climbs the turnbuckle. He shivers, and shakes before leaping through the air. He goes for the frogsplash, but Moore pulled himself out the ring, having Chavo eat the mat hard. Chavo holds his face in pain, as Moore holds the back of his head in pain near the barricade. Sydal attempts to capitalize on Chavo, but the ref catches him in the act. The ref threatens Sydal, as Elijah drops to the floor outside. He stalks Shannon from behind. Shannon turns, and Elijah runs at Moore for a clothesline. Moore counters, and hit’s an atomic drop on Elijah. Elijah holds his gut in pain, as Moore hit’s a spinning round house knocking Elijah into the barricade. Moore slides back in, and rolls onto Chavo. 1.…..2.…. Gurrero kicks out. Moore sits up on his knee’s arguing with the ref, before making another pin attempt. 1.… Gurrero rolls backwards and get’s a small package locked in. 1.……..2.….. Moore kicks out the package. Chavo gets up, and awaits Moore to get up. Moore gets to his feet, and turns to a barrage of random lefts and rights from Gurrero. Moore attempts to block some, but before he can Gurrero kicks him in the gut. Gurrero whips Moore into the turnbuckle hard. Moore leaps into the air, hand standing off the tope ropes, and landing on the apron countering the whip. Chavo attempts to knock Gurrero off, but Shannon delivers a well placed toe kick to the mid section. Chavo bends down holding his gut in pain, as Moore spring boards off the top rope, and hit’s a nice face buster on Chavo. Moore bounces back up, and stumbles towards Sydal holding his ribs as if he landed wrong. He tags Sydal in, as the crowd erupts with a pop.
Tazz: “Mr. Seventh Rib himself, Matt Sydal is now in this.”
Matt Sydal immediately gets ran at by Elijah. Sydal ducks a clothesline, and transitions into a sleeper hold but pulls Elijah down. Sydal turns to see Chavo down turning in pain. Sydal stomps on Chavo for a bit before seeing Burke back up. Burke is arguing with the ref. After arguing enough Burke turns into a big heel kick by Sydal taking him down. Sydal gets up and taunts Burke from his feet. Sydal takes position in the empty corner as Chavo begins to get up via the ropes. Sydal runs at Chavo with his head low. Sydal clips Chavo in the back of the knee, and rolls him up by using the tights as leverage. Sydal keeps his face quota, and lets go of the tights once he has Chavo up, an places his weight on Chavo’s rear end. 1.……2.…… Chavo kicks out of the roll up surprisingly. Matt Sydal gets back up, and begins hyping up the crowd. Chavo Gurrero gets up, and Matt Sydal hits several kicks to the ribs. Chavo over sells each one, and the match slows a bit. Matt Sydal is now in full control, as he clobbers Chavo to his knees with a huge double forearm. Matt Sydal points at himself telling Chavo he is the best. Sydal backs up off Chavo as Gurrero crawls over to Elijah.
Chavo Gurrero gets the tag to Burke, as Matt runs at Burke for a shoulder block. Elijah dodges the shoulder block, and Sydal lands in the turnbuckle uncomfortably. Elijah turns to Sydal, who is on his back at the corner. Elijah grabs the second rope with both arms, and begins thrusting his shoulder into Sydal’s midsection. Elijah continues this for about three more thrusts. Eventually Elijah back out the corner, and grabs Sydal by the head. Elijah locks in a headlock with his right arm, and starts getting some shots at the back of Sydal’s head with his left. Eventually Elijah let’s go, and sticks his arm out signaling for a finish. He locks his arm behind Sydal, and gets the leg around Sydal’s, as he slightly forward, then drops back! He nails the Elijah Experience as the crowd doesn’t know whether to cheer for Burke, or Sydal. Elijah crawls over Sydal, and turns on his back slowly. 1.……2.….. Shannon dives on Burke, and breaks up the pin. Burke looks up at Moore, as Moore flees back to the corner. Elijah chases Moore, but Moore climbs out the ring. Elijah taunted Moore, and turned into Matt Sydal who is on his flimsy legs.
Elijah runs to the ropes, and goes for the big forearm. Sydal beat Elijah to the punch and gets his elbow up. Sydal pops Elijah in the face with his elbow, as Sydal starts hitting some quick punches on Elijah, mostly with his left. Elijah goes to clobber Matt when he get’s the chance, but Sydal grabs Elijah’s arm, and hit’s a well placed arm drag. Elijah gets back up, and gets taken down once again with an arm drag. For a third time Elijah gets up, and Matt goes foe the third arm drag, but Elijah grounds himself, and Matt can’t life Elijah. Elijah grabs Matt’s arm, and flips Matt on his rear end with an arm flip. Elijah holds his back in pain, as he walks over to Chavo. As he is about to make the count he turns, and delivers a swift, and low kick to Sydal knocking Sydal on his back. Elijah picks up Sydal, and throws him into the turnbuckle. Elijah leap’s, and hit’s a big stinger splash. He makes the tag to Chavo, as he gets Sydal in a front body, and arm lock. Chavo sets up behind Elijah sticks his knee out. Elijah goes for a vertical suplex, but instead Sydal hit’s some closed palm fists to the ribs to stay a foot. He gets out the lock, and kicks Elijah in the face. Elijah trips over Chavo, and Sydal punt kicks Chavo in the face. Now with both men down Sydal pulls himself up on the top rope, and measures his opponents. He leaps into the air, and nails the shooting star press! The crowd goes wild as “Shooting Star” chants begin starting up. Shannon starts getting the crowd wild as he starts clapping nonstop. After a good minute, Sydal gets conscious, and slowly makes his way to Chavo. He takes Elijah off Chavo, and gets across Chavo. 1.……2.……Chavo has his foot on the ropes! The crowd boo’s Chavo. Sydal gets up, with his eyes literally popping out his head. Matt Sydal grabs his hair, and begins calling the ref an idiot. He drag’s Chavo away, and covers him once again. 1.………..2.…… This time Elijah pulls Sydal off Chavo breaking up the count. Moore gets in the ring, and runs to the corner where Burke is resting. Moore spears the hell out of Burke, and hit’s a gut kick to cap off the attack. Moore grabs Elijah by the root of Burke’s braids. Moore throws Elijah through the ropes, and climbs outside. Outside Shannon stomps on “The future” a bit, and eventually tosses Elijah into the steel steps. The team of Moore, and Sydal slow things down to catch a breather as they nail a few stomps, to keep their opponent down. “It’s Time” hit’s as Genesis champion “The Nightmare” Gregory Helms comes out with his Genesis championship around his waist.
Joey Styles: “The Genesis champion out here-wonder what his intentions are.”
He eyeballs his potential opponents before getting close to the action. Sydal looks at Helms from the ring, and climbs the turnbuckle calling Helms down. Chavo Gurrero takes this time to rest, as he slowly gets back to his feet, while Sydal is calling down the champion. Sydal calls Helms several words, and hops down into a big toe kick from Chavo. Chavo grabs Sydal, and looks for a strong Irish whip, but instead trips Sydal on his face. Sydal gets out on the apron, and thanks’ Gregory from the second turnbuckle, as he thinks he’s sealed the deal. Chavo gets up on the top rope, and measures Sydal whom is on his back for a quick second. Chavo is about to leap for the splash, but Moore pulls Chavo’s foot down. Chavo lands crotch first, and Sydal gets up, and brings Gurrero down. He grabs Chavo by the head, and hit’s a under-hook driver! Chavo sell’s its lethalness very well.
Tazz: “Oh man did you see that!? I heard that’s Sydal’s new move is called the Head Banger!”
Joey Styles: “Well that maneuver was lethal without a doubt. For those who didn’t see the under-hook driver here’s a replay.”
A replay is shown as we return to action. Now ringside Elijah is on top beating on a down Moore. Matt hurries, and climbs the turnbuckle he hit’s a second Shooting Star Press, as the crowd goes wild. Elijah goes in to stop an obvious pin attempt, but as Elijah slides in, Moore pulls Elijah back by the leg. Sydal hooks Chavo’s leg, and counts each number with his hand. 1.…2.…..3.…..
Winners: Matt Sydal, and Shannon Moore
Tazz: “Great performance from the one and only Genesis division.”
Joey Styles: “ECW’s one and only Genesis division. Well next week it will be Shannon Moore versus Matt Sydal in the number ones contender match for the Genesis championship.”
Tazz: “Yeah, I wonder how Gregory Helms feels about this. He just saw how bad Matt Sydal want’s it, and just like his theme song Shannon Moore will don anything for gold.”
The ref raises Moore’s, and Matt’s hands, as the two celebrate their win. Shannon calls Helms out from the ropes, and taunts him doing the original “Three Count” sign with his hand. Helms show’s know mood in his face, as he chew’s on his gum. He backs up the ramp, but doesn’t take his eyes off the ring. Matt Sydal gets closer to Shannon, and taps him in the back. He extends his arm showing good sportsmanship for his future opponent. Matt smiles, as he kicks Shannon in the gut, and grabs the arm Shannon shook Matt’s hand with. Matt tucks Shannon between his legs and grabs an arm. He hit’s the Head Banger once again, as the crowd begins turning from cheer’s, to chorus’s of boo’s. Matt gets up, and flexes his arms at the turnbuckle, and points at Gregory Helms showing how bad he wants the title. Sydal hops down, and grabs several chairs. Gregory moves towards the ring, as Elijah leaves ringside frustrated. Matt slides the two chairs in, and rolls in the ring. He puts Shannon’s head on one chair, while picking up the other. He points the chair at Helms, and laughs. He raises the chair, and slams it on Moore’s head. He does so two more times. He raises the chair upside down is about to go for a lethal shot. As he raises the chair, Elijah runs out the curtain, and slides in the ring shoving Chavo, and Helms to the side. Elijah grabs the chair, and turns Matt around. He kicks Sydal in the midsection, and whips Sydal to the ropes. Instead, of rebounding back, Helms, and Chavo grabs Sydal by the legs and drag Sydal outside. 3 Count begin stomping on him. Elijah looks on as he climbs the turnbuckle. He leaps through the air, and hit’s a huge cross body on Chavo, and Helms knocking them down. Burke gets up, and starts up the ramp as we go back ringside to Tazz, and Joey Styles.
Tazz: “Oh man Joey. Did you see that? Is Burke turning a new leaf?”
Joey Styles: “I’m not sure Tazz, but he did save Moore from the brutal attack at the hands of Matt Sydal. What was that all about Tazz?”
Tazz: “I guess Matt was making his match next week easier. I’m not going to lie, that attack looked pretty brutal. Man even with me in my prime that would’ve phased me. But only phase me, you know I am the ECW original extremist Tazz.”
Joey Styles: “Ha ok Tazz.. Well I’m still curious as to what’s going on here. This show is turning out to be one strange ride.”
Tazz: “Well Joey right now we have cameras backstage by former ECW Tag Team Champions John Morrison, and The Miz with their new pal, and body guard. Chris Harris.”
Joey Styles: “Lets see what exactly is up with MNM..”
We go backstage to see John Morrison in his jacket, jeans, and shades, with the Miz next to him talking about something. Chris Harris stands over them both walking with a serious expression. Miz’s voice is now being heard.
The Miz: “I’m telling you man! We need one!”
John Morrison: “For what Michael? We have big muscle why would we need arm candy to?”
The Miz: “Because those jerk’s beat us last week.”
John Morrison: “That was a fluke Mike. Not because we didn’t have a brainless chick with us. We have brain, muscle, and potential here with Christopher don’t we pal?”
Chris Harris: “Yes sir.”
John Morrison: “See?”
The Miz: “Dude! Listen man, I’m telling you give one of you’re a-Lister chicks a call we will be handed those belts back, and it wouldn’t kill to hear some yay’s when we come out. And with you Johnny it’s a long way from the curtain to the ring.”
John Morrison: “Look Mike I’ll see. LAX beat us last week by luck.”
The Miz: “I know bro.”
John Morrison: “Then, Mike? Is your hat sucking your brain cell’s? Is it on too tight? I think your seriously becoming a brainless moron. I’ve dealt with plenty of those in the past, and your not one. So don’t start becoming one.”
The Miz: “Man.. Where the hells Melina at? What’s her number Johnny?”
John Morrison: “I said no Mike!”
We go back to ringside with Tazz, and Joey Styles.
Tazz: “Ha-ha looks like MNM is having some chick trouble eh?”
Joey Styles: “Yes it seems like they do.”
Tazz: “Kind of like you Joey.”
Joey Styles: “Not funny Tazz.”
Tazz: “Ha sorry you just walked right into that one man.”
Joey Styles: “Well fortunately for you guys we are going to a quick add break. Now you don’t have to listen to Tazz’s annoying voice. Don’t touch the remote we will be back shortly!”
Add Break
Tazz: “Welcome back folks!”
Joey Styles: “Well while you were gone we got word a huge announcement regarding our main event tonight.”
Tazz: “Yah you want to tell them it Joey?”
Joey Styles: “Yes, well tonight it will be a fatal four way for the number one contenders position of the ECW World Heavyweight Championship.”
Tazz: “Aw, man that sounds good Joey! Known participant’s?”
Joey Styles: “Yes actually. The match is going to be between Shelton Benjamin “ECW’s Golden Standard”, The Sandman who made his return last week, “The Big Red Machine” Kane, and another opponent that was originally scheduled to be The Big Show, but due to Big Show’s actions last week. GM Ric Flair has removed him of the match as punishment. What Big Show will do is beyond me.”
Tazz: “Well Big Show or not that match sounds awesome, and under triple threat rules that means no dq! Man extreme just doesn’t stop here eh?”
Joey Styles: “Guess not but here’s an interesting topic tonight. What will Kane have to say about Big Show costing him the world heavyweight championship last week?”
Tazz: “I’m not sure Joey, but Kane hasn’t been known to talk much. More of an action guy if you ask me.”
Joey Styles: “You think Tazz? Well in other words, tonight CM Punk has his debut match, and it is for the ECW television championship.”
Tazz: “Yeah, last week “The Pounce”, “The Alpha Male” Marcus Cor Von beat Shelton Benjamin in an extreme rules match to get a shot at Punk.”
Joey Styles: “Ironically enough, now Punk has to face a man he’s faced before, but not as much as Benjamin. I only recall Punk, and Cor Von encountering once in the past, as CM Punk has faced Benjamin all over the place.”
Tazz: “Well Punk’s a smart kid, I think he can take Cor Von. With the drive to keep his title, I think Punk will retain here tonight.”
Joey Styles: “Well that’s another match to look forward too tonight.”
Tazz: “Aw, man I can’t wait for that.”
Joey Styles: “Also, tonight we have part one of our preview for the first official match for ECW’s first ever pay per view event “Blood Bash”. It is the ECW Tag Team Championship match Morrison, and Miz versus LAX, Homicide, and Hernandez. Tonight it will be Hernandez versus a representative of MNM.”
Tazz: “What? Whoa, Tag Team Championship match at “Blood Bash”. Sounds good.”
“Crank It Up” hit’s as a random shot of pyro sets off. Big Show comes out, and makes his way down to the ring. He climbs in as the crowd boo’s him. Big Show does his hand taunt on two sides of the ring, and calls for a microphone. Staff members give him a microphone as Big Show looks frustrated.
Tazz: “Big Show out now, maybe to talk on his removing of the main event.”
Big Show: “Ok.. Well I’m out here for one damn reason. Ric Flair get your ass out here. You need to explain exactly why I’m out the main event.”
Crowd boo’s.
Big Show: “Come on Ricky get out here. I’m waiting, what’s wrong?”
Crowd boo’s as still no one comes out.
Big Show: “Alright Ric. I’m giving you ‘til the count of three to come out here. If not I will go back there to take you down here myself.”
The crowd starts booing Big Show, as Big Show starts counting.
Big Show: “One………”
No one is out yet.
Big Show: “Two…”
Still no one is out yet.
Big Show: “That’s it Three… I’m coming ‘Natich.”
Big Show drops the microphone, and starts walking outside the ring. As he is climbing out the ring, Ric Flairs voice is heard.
Ric Flair: “Paul you sorry, big son of a gun. “The Nature Boy” don’t answer to anyone boy. Now you complaining on why you ‘aint in the main event. Well big boy, I told you last week to not mess with the main event. But you, and your big ass decided to interfere in the match, injure security, and put Kane through a table. Now I aint gonna suspend you. I’m a do worse. Kane’s busy tonight but next week it’s Kane versus Big Show. That’s right “The Big Red Machine” gonna get his hands on you bud. But tonight, my boy had caught beef with you last week. Now this week he want’s a match. A match against you, and god damnit I’m going to give it to him. Tonight- Right now! The Big Show taking on ECW head of security Matt “The Man” Morgan!”
Big Show calls Morgan down, and show’s he wants some. Morgan’s theme hits as the close to seven footer Matt Morgan comes out in trunks. He opens his arms, and flex’s his muscles, before pointing at Big Show. Morgan walks down. Morgan slides in, and punches start to fly immediately. Big Show grabs Morgan by the hair, and whips him to the ropes. Morgan rebounds back, and goes for a big boot. He connects, and hits Show in the chest. Show teeters back, as Matt starts hitting some fast shots to Show. Morgan goes for strong Irish whip. Big Show counters with a Irish whip of his own, but Morgan holds onto Show, and hit’s a kick to the mid section. The ref runs down, and rings the bell.

We go backstage to the interview scene with Chris Jericho standing along side Lena Yada.
Lena Yada: “Chris Jericho.”
The crowd pops.
Chris Jericho: “Yes, my sweet lady?”
Lena Yada: “Well last week you won your second world championship since the day you became the undisputed champion. How do you feel?”
Chris Jericho: “Well Lena I feel great! I am Y2J, and over the years I associated my self with the wrong people, and did the wrong things like worrying about washed up has been’s like Shawn Michaels, Triple H, The Undertaker. All those men who simply can’t face the fact that.. A true champion.. Well Chris Jericho is that. I’m not the future, I am now. And now will be a long time Lena. No one hear on ECW is going to stop me, so when you ask “how I feel”. Well I’ll tell you I feel.. Great.”
Lena Yada: “Ha-ha, so Chris tonight we have the number one contenders match for the your belt. With the winner facing you at ECW’s first ever pay per view. “Blood Bash”! The known competitors have faced you in the past. Shelton Benjamin, Kane, and The Sandman. Who do you think is coming out on top?”
Chris Jericho: “Well let’s see.. The Big Red Ass Clown known as Kane is an idiot. I’m not going to lie unlike certain wrestlers, Kane is a strong competitor, but he is an idiot. He doesn’t have what greats like me, and Bret Hart have. He doesn’t have ring awareness, he pounds, eats, craps, and sleep’s. That’s all Kane knows, and anyone can outsmart him. The Ass Clown eh I mean Sandman. Is a drunk. He isn’t athletic at all. The guy can’t even say a sentence, and even though he can be a good brawler. He isn’t winning it tonight. Shelton “The Golden Standard” Benjamin. First off, he reminds me of Carlton from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. From that Halloween episode? Yeah he’s an ass clown, and the hair is stupid two. Shelton. I’ve faced him before, and the guy can do some cool stuff in the ring. But he doesn’t have what it takes to win.”
Lena Yada: “So who’s winning it tonight?”
Chris Jericho: “Good question Lena.. ME! I am Jericho. I always win. Even when I'm not in a match I still win it. I make lemons into lemonade. I desect my opponents styles, holds, that's why I'm so brilliant. And well.. Golden. I am coming out on top, and for who ever the hell wants some of the buff muffin known as Jericho. Come and get me! Because I am Jericho and I am better than you!”
Lena Yada: “Eh, ok? So Jericho w-”
Shelton Benjamin cut’s into the scene in his jacket, and shades.
Shelton Benjamin: “ECW World Champion Chris Jericho.”
Chris Jericho: “What do you want Shelton? Don’t you have some old annoying lady to attend to?”
Shelton Benjamin: “Yeah, I’m tending to her right now.”
Chris Jericho: “Hey shut your mouth nothing is old about Lena hear.”
Shelton Benjamin: “No, Lena knows I know she beautiful. Now you got what I want.”
Chris Jericho: “Good look’s?”
Shelton Benjamin: “No jackass, your title. I’m just letting you know that tonight when I pin who ever I pin one, two, three. I am taking that title at “Blood Bash”.”
Chris Jericho: “Is that so little Shelton?”
Shelton Benjamin: “You know it. Now that I’m on ECW.. There aint no stopping me now.. Ha-Ha.”
