ULTIMATE CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING

No folks you are not seeing double. Ultimate Championship Wrestling is Back!

Michael Temple and Tom Ovenden, both billionaires,have bought the wrestling promotion from Turner and Trump as their graduation presents. Turner and Trump having lost all emphasis towards the wrestling have gladly sold off their majority stocks to the gentlemen from America and England. Turner and Trump have received some stock in exchange as Michael and Tom run the day to day business. Keeping the company Ultimate Championship Wrestling, which ironically was named after an E-fed they ran as kids, the two men have restored the roster to get everybody who is anybody. Much like the fed they ran as kids the roster is so big they have divided the roster into 4 brands each man agreeing to work with 2 of them to help production. Using the E-fed as the idea of the company the brand rosters were made and the accomplishments of the superstars added to their resumes. So as not to waste anymore time, the new owners have kept the same promotional posters, but expect new ones in the coming weeks. Tom and Michael are very excited about this venture and just now they have put up the rosters to their brands on the internet for all the world to see.

2. The titantron activates to the Co-Owner of UCW Michael Temple. He looks extremely happy to be here as he picks up a mic.

He starts out by welcoming everyone and thanking them for tuning in. He says how Stephanie McMahon will be the General Manager but since it’s the first show he wanted to run it. He says he has some great talent on both the Raw and Smackdown rosters, both of which he explains he is in charge of. He mentions the UCW Champion when…

Brock Lesnar comes out to a mixed reaction. The Next Big Thing steps into the ring and gets in the Co-Owner’s face. Brock says he was never a part of UCW, but he is a part of it now and as the Big thing around here should be given the title.

Enter John Cena to a massive pop from the crowd, he comes out and thanks Michael for hiring him and allowing him to do what he loves. He turns to Brock, makes some bad roid jokes and states he’s the champ, he’s here and he’ll beat Brock to get the belt.

The Legend Killer Randy Orton’s music breaks up the intense staredown. The Legend Killer says he’s defeated legend and ended careers. He had many title reigns in both the WWE and UCW which makes him the best ever. He says there is no legend on the planet he hasn’t beaten.

Enter the music of the Icon Sting to the biggest pop of the night. Sting comes out and as Cena did thanks Michael for the opportunity to perform. He turns to Orton and tells him he hasn’t beaten him, and he is above a legend, he’s an Icon. He turns to Brock and tells Brock he has no respect for the business hence why he left it for UFC only to crawl back when he got hurt. Then he turns to Cena and applauds Cena for being a real man, but says Cena has never truly defeated Sting which is why he hopes Michael will give the Stinger the Championship which he held longer in one reign than all of them combined in UCW.

Michael enters the conversation before it turns to violence and announces tonight he will scout and see who truly deserves the championship. He says the Main Event will be huge as Sting will team with John Cena to face Brock Lesnar and Randy Orton. The crowd goes nuts as Michael wishes everyone luck as Raw heads to commercial break.

Attendance: 23,532

1. Pyros and Opening Introductions: Michael Cole and Jerry The King Lawler

The last debut is ready to begin as Michaelâ€™s second show comes to life with the legendary Smackdown set sans fist. The crowd is going absolutely bonkers as arguably the best show in UCW history comes to life. Michael Cole and Jerry â€œThe Kingâ€ Lawler welcome us and introduce us to how UCW works for those who havenâ€™t tuned in just yet.

2. Opening Segment: Shane McMahon, James Storm, CM Punk, and Edge discuss the World Championship.

Smackdown opens up with â€œHere Comes the Moneyâ€ as the General Manager of Smackdown is introduced as Shane McMahon. Cole and King tell the UCW Universe McMahonâ€™s history with the Smackdown brand.

Shane welcomes everyone to the show. Apologizes for Michael who was not able to be here tonight due to recuperating at home from the events on Raw, but says Michael has left his A brand in the most capable of hands. He announces how two championships will be decided tonight, The Intercontinental and World Heavyweight Championship. Shane announces Smackdown will be the best of the best and goes to announce the world title match.

James Storm comes out to a standing ovation from the crowd. Drinking his beer before getting in the ring and talking to Shane. Storm mentions how he was the first champion in UCW Smackdown history and held the title for nearly 8 months. Storm retired because he felt he couldnâ€™t do anymore, but has come back to win the belt one more time. He is about to say his catchphrase when.

The Rated R Superstar Edge comes out to the ring to a chorus of cheers, but as soon as he takes the mic it is clear he is all heel. Edge talks down Storm by telling him that not only did Edge beat Stormâ€™s record as champion, but held the record for the longest title reign in the history of UCW. He says the belt should be his because unlike Storm he can make a coherent sentence and doesnâ€™t appear to work drunk. Edge slams Shane saying that if Shane doesnâ€™t give him a title shot tonight heâ€™s going to be like his dad, unemployed.

Lastly the music of CM Punk hits ending the tirade of Edge and the fans are happy to see the second city savior. Punk from the entrance ramp reminds both men that while both of them retired, Punk carried on and held the belt several times, leaving the company with the championship belt having never been defeated. Therefore Punk should theoretically already be Champion. Punk mentions how he is straight edge unlike Storm and never complains as it is all Edge can do. Punk tells Shane to make the right decision here and put him in the match.

Shane decides that he will make a monster main event for the first ever Smackdown. The World Heavyweight Championship will be decided in a Triple Threat match between Storm, Punk, and Edge. The three greatest Champions in the history of UCW will do battle Cole and King explain as we head to break.

Warrior says winning will be a dream come true for him and a nightmare for whoever his opponent will be.

Cole and King say the first match is going to Kevin Nash v. Kurt Angle. Nash comes out to the ring accompanied by Scott Hall.

Kurt Angle comes out next but instead of preparing for his match takes a microphone. Cole and King wonder why.

Angle says he did not bother to come out and make his claim to the WHC cause he can win it at any time. Says he has some business he wants to attend to first.

Angle states he wants to win Tag Team Gold and says heâ€™s picked a partner to team with that represents integrity and intelligence. Challenges the Outsiders to a match.

Nash in an attempt to stay fresh tags in Hall, who after hitting Ziggler with a couple of cheap shots manages to hit Ziggler with a fallaway slam. Angle breaks up the count.

Hall responds by taking a toothpick and spitting it into Angleâ€™s face. This angerâ€™s Angle who tries to get into the ring but canâ€™t.

Hall spends too much time taunting Angle, allows Ziggler to connect with a namedropper. The Hot tag is on.

The tag is made and Angle clearly goes heel by kicking Nash in the balls as the refereeâ€™s back is turned. Angle lifts up Nash with the Angle slam before going for the cover.

Winners at 7:23 Kurt Angle and Dolph Ziggler.

After the match, Angle and Ziggler celebrate as Cole says if Angle is going to act like that there is going to be no team to stop them.

Attendance: 23,689

Pyros and Introductions: Michael Cole and Jerry the King Lawler

[*=center]UCW wraps up its tour of the UK and the Wembley crowd is going nuts. Michael Cole and King welcome us and remind us of the New World Heavyweight Champion James Storm. Says Michael will open tonightâ€™s Smackdown and how we will see number one contenderâ€™s to the tag titles, the intercontinental Champion in action as well as a tournament for a yet undisclosed championship. The crowd is ready to go as the first segment begins.

Opening Segment: Michael, James Storm, Edge

He talks about how he is sorry he missed last weekâ€™s Smackdown but is happy to know Shane McMahon is going to be a General Manager where Michael wonâ€™t have to be around all the time. He then mentions James Storm to a huge pop from the crowd, and asks him to come out.

[*=center]James Storm comes out to his single music, dressed in jeans and a tank top, wearing a cowboy hat, beer in one hand the World Heavyweight Championship in the other. He comes into the ring all smiles and shakes the bosses hand.

[*=center]This comment brings out the rated R superstar Edge who does not look very happy. The crowd gives him major heat as he comes out in his jeans and leather jacket.

[*=center]Edge tells Michael and Storm what happened last week proved nothing, because Edge wasnâ€™t pinned. Edge says as long as Storm doesnâ€™t beat him one two three in the center of the ring no one will buy him as the greatest champion ever, that title will always belong to Edge. Edge says if it were one on one there is no way Storm would walk out the winner.

[*=center]Storm smiles and tells Edge heâ€™s nothing but a sore loser and a sissy. Storm says heâ€™d rather take on a real wrestler like Chris Benoit or Kurt Angle, but if it will get Edge off his back and out of the picture heâ€™ll gladly face him with Michaelâ€™s permission.

[*=center]Michael smiles as the crowd chants â€œlet them fight.â€ Michael states Edge will get his rematch for the World Title, just not tonight. For he needs a good headlining match for his Pay Per View, Judgment Day. Michael says at Judgment Day, it will be Edge against the World Champion James Storm.

[*=center]Edge and Storm are happy about this, but Michael says if they want to fight right now they will. He says that in tonightâ€™s main event, Edge and Storm will each pick a partner and compete tonight in a tag team match. With this announcement and some hyping from Cole and King, Smackdown goes to commercial break.

The only reason he did what he had too last week was because he needed to help out his client. He explains how he sees a lot of himself in Mason Ryan and wonâ€™t stop until Mason Ryan is a champion.

[*=center]Mason Ryan takes the mic and the crowd gives him serious heat. Ryan says last week was a fluke and he isnâ€™t going to let a legend like Dave Batista down. He says he doesnâ€™t need Dave Batista to win his matches for him, and he is the new Animal in UCW. He says whoever his opponent is next week he is going to rip them apart.

[*=center]Batista takes back the mic and says he believes Ryan, and says he is sorry he had to interfere in Ryanâ€™s match and knows he wonâ€™t have to do it again. He says Raven is a joke and jokes wonâ€™t be a problem anymore.

[*=center]The crowd goes nuts as the lights in the arena go out and come back on. Raven is in the ring with a steel chair. Ryan rushes Raven but gets a steel chair to his head for his troubles. Batista runs out of the ring and up the ramp as fast as he can.

[*=center]Raven picks up Ryanâ€™s mic and says he wants Batista to face his judgment day in a match.

[*=center]Batista tells Raven flat out no! He is done wrestling and he certainly wonâ€™t come out of retirement for a joke like him.
