Wednesday Night BTW
Ricardo Saprissa Stadium
San Jose, Costa Rica
Live
JBL: Joel, I can’t believe it. We only have two weeks in business and we make our first show outside the United States.
Styles: Yeah! How you doin’ Costa Rica? “Pura Vida”
“Burn in my Light” plays through out the arena. Randy Orton comes out to a surprise audience
Videos of HHH vs Randy Orton and Triple H ripping Orton’s WWE contract.
Randy: Well, well, well. You finally accomplished what you wanted. I’m out. But you made one freaking mistake. You let me breathing! And this is for you, for Vince, for Crushing C, fur Triple H, for everyone, you should have killed me. See because, I may be out of WWE, but that doesn’t exents me from signing with another company, such as BTW!!!.
Crowd boos big time.
Randy: So I talked to Crushing C, but to your pleasure he denied me a contract.
Crowd’s cheers interrupt his talking.
Randy: But, then I thought, isn’t there an Extreme Championship here in BTW? So, reviewing the rules of that title, I realized that even though the champion does not have to defend his title 24/7, but he can’t deny any championship matches. So, I’m challenging Jeff Hardy to a title match so I can win myself a title and a wrestling contract.

1st Match: BTW Extreme Title Match: Jeff Hardy vs Randy Orton
Randy Orton starts the match looking really focus. He gains the advantage and hits major punches. Jeff Hardy bravely rises only to receive more hits. Randy continues to show his concentration by not doing any taunts. He then dashes to the ropes and connects a dropping knee. He goes for the quick pin: 1…2…, Jeff kicks out. Crowd starts chanting for Jeff. JBL highlights that all the offense is going to Randy Orton. Randy goes outside and reminds us why this is the Extreme Title grabbing the bell, yelling “No DQ man” to the crowd, but when turning around he receives a baseball slide from Jeff. Jeff then grabs a chair and connects Randy. He then does the “extreme” taunt for the crowd. He puts Randy on the turnbuckle pole, he climbs to the scalafold, and then jumps toward him, only to Randy push him in mid air making Jeff fell from outside the ring to inside the ring. Randy then climbed to the top rope and hits a knee drop on Jeff busting him open, he then goes for the count: 1…2…, Hardy surprisingly kicked out. Randy starts to look frustrated and starts taunting for the RKO. Jeff finally returns to his feet, Randy jums to apply it, but Jeff reverses it into the Extreme Twist of Fate. Jeff then climbs to the top rope and connects the Swanton Bomb, goes for the count: 1…2…3.
Result: Jeff Hardy retains the BTW Extreme Title.
Styles: Well, it looks like that we will not be seeing more Randy Orton in wrestling!
JBL: Could you at least hide your happiness. God, you just make me sick. Thankfully, Brock Lesnar is next.
2nd Match: Brock Lesnar with Paul Heyman vs Colt Cabana
Colt Cabana tries to attack Brock, but he just takes the strikes like a wall. He finally reacts to the punches and hits a powerful clothesline. He dashes Cabana to the ropes and applies a Body Drop, but Colt fells in top of the referee. Brock does not care and grabs Colt, and trying to send a message announces a jackhammer, he lifts him up, but while on air mocks the move, transform it into an F5 and he connects it. Suddenly, Goldberg’s music hits, and on the Titantron we can see him coming from his Locker room. Brock gets distracted, letting Cabana pick a small package pulling tights to win the match.
Result: Colt Cabana defeats Brock Lesnar.
On the Titantron we still see Goldberg, but all of the sudden CM Punk appears.
CM Punk: You just don’t learn Goldberg. As I said on our first show, we are here to win the World Championship, not to go and fool around with a Blue monster like Lesnar.
Goldberg doesn’t speak; he just stands there looking Punk firmly.
CM Punk: Anyway, Edge and Mr. Kennedy was supposed to be our main event. I have a submission match against Samoa Joe, but I spoke to Crushing C to pull you in our main event, so tonight we will have a triple threat match, Goldberg vs Edge vs Mr. Kennedy. My life, my rules.

3rd Match: Rhino vs Rikishi
Rhino looks really angry and tries to connect some heavy offense, but Rikishi shows his resilience and hits a headbutt. He then goes for a splash, but Rhino lifts his boots and hurts Rikishi middle section. Rhino goes for the Gore, but Rikishi reverses it into a Samoan Drop. He then dashes to the rope and hits a leg drop. He stays there to start the count, but Rhino moves before the ref starts the count.
Rikishi starts looking very confident and hit methodical punches, but at the third punch, Rhino avoids hit and start connecting elbow smashes. He connects right and left punches and out of a sudden hits modified neck breaker. He takes impulse and connects a soccer kick right to Rikishi’s mouth, making reference to the fact that Saprissa Stadium is a scoccer stadium. Rikishi is bleeding from his mouth. Rhino notices it and applies a mandible claw. Rikishi then reverses it into a jaw breaker, leaving him open to the Side Kick, Rhino ducks it and goes for the Gore, but Rikishi again ducks it and dashes Rhino to the ropes, and when he was coming to him he applied a Flashback. Rhino refuses to be beaten and gets up from the hit. He throws himself toward Rikishi and then Irish wips to the turnbuckle and then taunts for the Rhino driver. Once on the corner, Rhino tries to put Rikishi in position, but he failed in the application, letting Rikishi connect a rotating sitting powerbomb from the top rope, also letting Rhino in position to the Stinky face. Rikishi applies the Stinky face, Rhino gets up disgusted and apparently blinded only to get hit by a sidekick. Rikishi goes for the cover: 1…2…3.
Result: Rikishi beats Rhino.

4th Match: CM Punk vs Samoa Joe
(Commercial)
We return with both of them trading blows. Samoa Joe starts showing his advantage in size and weight. He quickly tries to go for a sleeper hold but CM Punk escapes his way out with elbow smashes. Cm Punk then connects a combination of kicks only to be blocked at the third one and get hit with a capture leg powerbomb. Samoa Joe retains Punk’s leg and applies a one legged Boston crab. Punk then reverses it into a leg scissors sleeper hold. But Joe is still fresh and quickly, and he easily gets out of it.
They both get on their feet and get cheered by the entire audience.
Samoa Joe dashes toward the ropes but gets connected with a calf kick by Punk. Punk goes to the top rope and waits for Joe to get up. When he finally does, CM attempts a body cross slam, but Samoa catches him in mid air and connects the S.T.Joe. Punk seems knocked out and Joe takes advantage and locks the STF, he holds it tight, when Punk is apparently finding the way out, Joe modifies into a crossface and when Punk again is finding his way out, he modifies again into a Camel Clutch.
Joe then looks really angry, and some part of the crowd supports him, while the other half of the crowd starts cheering for Punk. Joe then picks up a totally immobile opponent and irish wips him to the corner, where he yells “Samoa Joe is going to kill you”. He puts CM on the top rope and announces the Avalanche Island Driver. But when about to hit the ground, Punk relives and hits a DDT. Joe is out. Punk gets up and grinds about his head. Punk then connects a top rope leg drop. CM gets up and goes for a suplex, but Joe keeps blocking it, so Punk applies a Dragon Sleeper. Crowd starts chanting “You’ll tap out. You’ll tap out” to Samoa Joe. CM, just as Joe did minutes before, when his opponent tried to escape the hold, he changed it into another. Punk did the same thing, modifying the dragon sleeper into an abdomen stretch, and again modifying it into a very expected Anaconda Vice. Samoa Joe starts to slowly fade away, forcing the ref to check on him lifting his arm. He lifts it, Joe doesn’t respond, he lifts it for the second time, and when the arm dropping he catched CM Punk’s neck applying a One handed Coquina Clutch. In an amazing change of events, Punk taps out to the Coquina Clutch while applying the Anaconda Vice.
Result: Samoa Joe makes CM Punk tap out.
JBL: Well, I guessed we just saw why Samoa Joe is the submission machine. But in more important news, we just got news about crowning more champions here tonight.
Styles: Yes, apparently were are having a Tag Royal Rumble for the BTW Tag Titles, but that’s happening after this messages.

5th Match: RVD and Sabu vs Mistico and Ricky Banderas vs Maven and Albert vs Brock Lesnar and Paul Heyman vs Triple H and CMS vs Elijah Burke and Christian.
JBL and Styles highlight the fact that Triple H, CMS, Christian and Elijah Burke are in a strange double feud tag match. Match start with The Game arguing with Christian and Burke and CMS in a stare down, meanwhile Brock cleans house with the rest of the opponents leaving only him and Paul Heyman standing. Then they see the four other competititors, Brock goes first for Burke and CMS and knocks them out with a double clothesline, then he dashes toward Christian and the Game, only to be slowed by a low kick of Christian and a spine buster by Triple H. After that, Triple H and Captain Charisma start to exchange blows, meanwhile Paul Heyman is still bragging to CMS and Burke, so he doesn’t realizes on his back ECW originals RVD and Sabu are getting up. Rob hits Heyman with a wheel kick followed by a flapjack of Sabu that caused Heyman to fell outside the ring eliminating him and Lesnar. Paul Heyman and Lesnar are eliminated. Mistico and Banderas are also recovering and after they get to their feet they attack Maven and Albert. CMS is punishing Burke, he grabs him and tries to throw him outside, but Burke shows his ability and manages to get out by the second rope, not being eliminated. Even though, Burke is pretty beaten and doesn’t get up. CMS then goes to double team Cage with the Game. The Game hits Christian with a knee smash, making him to fell. CMS tries to kick him but Triple H puts on his way, saying that he can handle Christian himself. CMS shows rookie cockiness and pushes the Cerebral Assassin. The Game looks at the crowd, and when he hears the cheers, he hits the pedigree on his own partner, then picks up Christian and hits another pedigree. He picks up Christian as if he was doing a body press slam and drops Christian outside the ring. Christian and Elijah Burke are eliminated. The Game does the title sign. CMS realizes Burke is leaving, so he throws himself out of the top rope se he can attack him. Triple H and CMS are eliminated. Triple looks shocked at first but then sees it like an opportunity and also attacks his opponent Christian.

When we returned we are told Mistico and Ricky Banderas were eliminated when RVD placed Mistico on the ropes split legged and performed a kick that knock him to the outside floor. That leaves us only RVD and Sabu vs Maven and Albert. JBL points out that Maven and Albert have been layback and that they are rested. Rob Van Dam and Sabu look at each other and then Van Dam goes for Albert and Sabu on Maven. Maven is easily controlled by dropkicks and punches of Sabu, but RVD has problems with Albert. Sabu dropkicks on the knee leaving RVD the chance to hit a windmill kick. RVD continues to focus on Albert, giving his back to Maven and Sabu. Maven recovers and hits and impressive double knee smash on Sabu’s neck. Maven takes long but eventually goes to the top rope for a splash. RVD quickly rolling thunders Albert and sees Maven on the top rope. He climbs to the top rope of the other side and jumps toward Maven, pushing him outside the ring. RVD jumped from side to side to eliminate Maven.
Result: RVD and Sabu defeated the Tag Team Royal Tumble to become the BTW Tag Champions.
At the end of the match RVD goes toward Sabu’s knocked body and does his R…V…D taunt.
JBL reminds us about the BTW.com announcement concerning Elijah Burke and CMS

6th Match: Edge vs Ken Kennedy vs Goldberg
Edge and Kennedy are arguing in the ring. On the Titantron we see the video of CM Punk talking early in the night with Goldberg about focusing on the World Title.
Goldberg does his entrance and intimates both men in the ring. Goldberg enters the ring but when doing his trademark stretching he was attacked by both other competitors. Edge and Kennedy trade turns to hit Goldberg. Suddenly Goldberg blocks Edge and slams it. Kennedy also gets blocked and slammed by Goldberg. Crowd starts a huge “Goldberg” chant.
JBL: If CM punk doesn’t see the concentration on this man, he must be breaking his straightedge way of living, if you know what I mean.
Goldberg waits to Edge to get up and then connects a powerbomb. Kennedy goes outside the ring and grabs a chair.
Styles: no, C’mon. He can’t ruin a perfectly main event match as this was going to be.
Kennedy enters the ring and looks to hit Goldberg. He connects an amazing shot to Goldberg’s head that busts him open.
Result: Goldberg defeats Edge and Kennedy by DQ.
Kennedy then appears to hit Edge, but he doesn’t and instead helps him to get on his feet. Edge then grabs another chair and says to Kennedy to get ready for a con chair to. Out of a sudden “This fire burns” start playing, with CM Punk coming out and saving Goldberg.
JBL then goes to the ring with a mic.
JBL: I just received a message from Crushing C by my auricular. Next week it will be Edge and Mr. Kennedy, vs CM Punk and Goldberg.
Show ends with Edge and Kennedy looking scared with Goldberg and CM Punk looking impressive.
