WWE Europe Episode 1 from Manchester, England
“Just Close Your Eyes†Hits and Christian comes to the ring along with Tyson Tomko to open the broadcast.
Christian: Hello to all my peeps here in Manchester, England!!! The reason I’m out here is because Shane-O-Mac has given me the opportunity to introduce the premiere show of WWE Europe! But, along with that I also have a few other things to say… You see tonight I will compete in the most hectic, confusing and downright craziest match of all time. Tonight I will compete for the European Championship in a Scramble Match. I’ll go against 4 other men… Shelton Benjamin, The Gold Standard, Mr. Potential, the greatest athlete in all of professional wrestling, but he has been for about 6 years and hasn’t done anything… I’m not too worried. Mark Henry, The Worlds Strongest Man, a former European Champion in his own right, but in a scramble match you need pace, speed and intelligence, unfortunately big man… you don’t have any of the three. William Regal (pop for Regal here in England), He is a talent, an Englishman, a straight out brawler, with technical skill to boot… but honestly, Sir Regal… go back to your castle nancy-boy, and last but not least… Mike what’s-his-face.
Let’s be serious, none of these four men hold a candle to Captain Charisma. So tonight, I’ll go onto the main event, win the European Championship, and then face the useless hack…
-Tomko looks at Christian with a raised eyebrow and angered look on his face, to which the crowd responds to with laughter-
Christian: … Oh… right, then I’ll go on to face my big buddy Tomko at Bad Blood, where we will rock the house…
“Pain†hits and Vladimir Kozlov makes his way out to the stage with a microphone.
Kozlov: Я Козлов, российские истребители, я спроса конкуренции я победит Неустранимая четыре матча и выиграть чемпионат в Бад крови, я бороться за победу!
“Tribal Trouble†hits and Umaga makes his way out to the stage also with a microphone…
Umaga: Goo Hah!!! Misa La! Gobra!!! Samoa!!!! GARRRR!!!!!
-Christian and Tomko both look at each other confused…
Christian: Say Tomko… do you have any idea what these guys are saying?
The crowd laughs and then quiets down knowing what’s coming next, they wait eagerly with anticipation…
Tomko: ….. No ……
Crowd laughs hysterically but then… start booing….
Suddenly Mark Henry is in the ring and he attacks Christian and Tomko from behind. Tomko is taken out of the ring, and Henry lifts Christian up and… World’s Strongest Slam!!! Henry stands tall.

“Victory is Mine†hits and Santino Marella makes his way to the ring looking extremely bewildered as to what is happening…

Goldust and “Goldhaas†vs. Santino Marella and Chavo Guerrero
The bell sounds and Goldust and Chavo Guerrero start off in the ring. They lock up and the action begins Goldust getting the early advantage. Goldust sends Chavito off the ropes and takes him down with a clothesline. Goldust then springs off the ropes himself for a running leg drop. While Guerrero is down Goldust takes the opportunity to walk over to Marella and use some of his old tricks. Goldy takes a deep breath and bites at Santino who jumps off the apron freaked out. Chavo tries to sneak up on Chavo but Goldy is aware and hits an inverted atomic drop, he reenacts his opponent’s injuries, running up and down on the spot, and then takes Chavo out with a clothesline. Goldust pulls Chavo by his leg over to his corner and tags in “Goldhaasâ€. Haas helps Chavo to his feet only to send him right back to the mat with a dropkick. Chavo is in a seated position and Haas hits a swift kick to the chest of Guerrero. Cover from Haas: 1…. 2…… but Santino comes into the ring and breaks up the count. The referee pushes Santino back to his corner and Haas follows behind the ref to get a few words in. Chavo however has the awareness to take advantage of both the referee’s and Haas’ turned backs and hits a low blow on “Goldhaasâ€. Goldust sees this act and charges into the ring but the referee, who has subdued Santino, pushes Goldust back into the corner. Santino jumps back into the ring and Guerrero and Marella begin a double team. Chavo takes a knee and Santino lifts Haas into a scoop slam onto Chavo’s knee. The referee is back and Marella (now on the apron) gets the tag from Guerrero. Marella sends Haas flying over the top rope, and that is the last image as we go to commercial.
*Commercial*
As we come back Marella still has the advantage over Haas, and has him in an Arm Wrench to a seated “Goldhaasâ€. Haas is working the crowd into the match as he works himself to his feet. He throws punches to the gut of Marella and breaks the hold, he rebounds of the ropes at Santino, but Santino dives into a low dropkick to Haas’ knee sending Haas back to the mat. Marella then locks in… a… figure four leg lock? The crowd is amazed at the introduction of this move into Marella’s arsenal; however Haas, the mat veteran, rolls to his gut and reverses the pressure forcing Santino to break the hold. Santino is still working over Haas’ leg however, twisting and contorting it to put Haas in an immense amount of pain. Marella goes for another figure four leg lock in the centre of the ring, however as he turns to twist Haas’ leg, “Goldhaas†pushes Santino off him with his other leg. But Santino is pushed straight into a tag to Guerrero who comes into the ring and grabs the leg of Haas. Haas is able to get up to standing on one leg. “Goldhaas†is throwing wild right and left hands but is just out of reach of Chavo. Until… Enzuigiri by Haas!!! Chavo is down and Haas crawls to his corner and tags in Goldust to a huge pop and Goldy comes in like a man possessed taking Chavo down and knocking Marella off the apron. He hits Chavo with an inverted atomic drop, comes of the ropes and hits a butt bump taking Guerrero down. Santino is back in the ring and comes running at Goldust, but Goldust evades and send Marella into Belly-to-Belly suplex over the top rope by “Goldhaasâ€. Goldust is sets up Chavo Guerrero for the golden globes, its fourth and long, Goldust is ready to punt, but the referee is aware and stands in front of Goldust preventing him for hitting a move that would disqualify his team. But with the referee’s back turned “Goldhaas†runs at Chavo and hits the Golden Globes. Haas rolls out of the ring and Goldust goes for a cover… 1….. 2…….. 3!!! Goldust and “Goldhaas†win!
Result: Goldust and “Goldhaas" win via pinfall.
Josh Matthews: I can’t believe they won!
Dusty Rhodes: I can’t believe Goldust and “Goldhaas†are the new number one contenders!
Mr. Kennedy: I can’t believe Santino Marella used a figure four leg lock….!
Matthews: Um, yes Ken…
Kennedy: That’s Mr. to you kid… What a great match this was, and what a way to kick off WWE Europe!
-Backstage-
Christian is in the doctor’s office getting worked on by Dr. Fernando Rios
Doctor: I’m sorry Christian, you have a prolapsed disc in your back, and I can’t let you wrestle tonight.
Christian: Doc, I’m wrestling, there isn’t anything you can do about that, I will be wrestling in the Main Event, I will become the new European Champion, and I will get revenge on Mark Henry.

The bell sounds and the fans can’t wait to see a hardcore match for the Hardcore Championship! Both men scurry out of the ring and quickly look under the ring for some weapons. Finlay throws a trash can, some street signs and a mop into the ring, and brings out a kendo stick for use. Cor Von brings out a table and leaves it a ringside and he also brings out a chair and brings it into the ring.

He places the can behind him, and he hits Finlay with a huge exploder suplex onto the can!! Marcus Cor Von then stomps away at Finlay and hits a big leg drop. Cor Von goes for his first cover of the match up but Finlay kicks out at 2. Cor Von heads to the outside of the ring and begins to dismantle the announce table. Meanwhile Finlay is hanging out of the ring reaching for something under the ring. Cor Von comes back into the ring goes to grab Finlay, but a huge burst of Smoke engulfs Cor Von from a Fire Extinguisher! Cor Von staggers to the ropes, Finlay charges at Cor Von tackling him through the 2nd rope to the outside! He is unloading with rights and lefts and this one has turned into an outright fist fight! Cor Von fights back and is able to fight away from Finlay and he crawls under the ring. Finlay goes after him, and also heads under. After a while Cor Von reappears he begins to run but trips as Finlay has him lassoed with a rope, and he begins to tie the Alpha Male up. Finlay succeeds and Cor Von is literally helpless and can’t move! Finlay then goes to the back, leaving Cor Von motionless in the isle. Suddenly a motor can be heard coming from the back and out comes Finlay driving a forklift!!!! Finlay rolls Marcus Cor Von onto the forklift and Finlay begins to drive it backstage. The cameras follow and they see Finlay still driving the forklift into the parking lot. Finlay finally parks the forklift next to a pool, or what appears to be tar!!! Finlay then drops Cor Von in the tar!!!!! Cor Von is able to struggle his way out of the tar and the rope that binds him has slowly become looser and is able to wriggle free of the constraints. Finlay moves of screen but appears again with a bazooka type gun, he fires… and… feathers!!!!! The crowd is laughing hysterically at Cor Von’s humiliation! Finlay then takes Cor Von down with a huge chair shot!!! Cor Von is out, and Finlay lifts him into a shopping cart and begins to push him back into the arena. Finlay appears on the ramp and pushes Cor Von to the ring. Finlay sets up the table in the centre of the ring. Cor Von seems to have regained some sort of composure, however it’s too late. Finlay lifts Cor Von into the Celtic Cross position and puts him through the table!!! Finlay with the pin 1……2……3!!! Finlay wins!
Result: Finlay wins the Hardcore Championship via pin!
Rhodes: What a match? Hardcore by every meaning of the word.
Matthews: Finlay becomes the new Hardcore Champion and, well to say that Marcus Cor Von suffered an embarrassing defeat would be an understatement!

In Shane McMahon’s office the four men who are competing in the number one contenders match are shouting and screaming.
McMahon: I’m sorry gentlemen, but that is the way it has to be. Circumstances force plans to change. But hey at least you will all get a chance to become the number on contender next week. Thank you gentlemen, now please, I need to announce this to the audience!
-Tomko, Kane, Umaga and Kozlov leave McMahon’s office-
McMahon: Ladies and Gentlemen, the advertised Number One Contenders match that was scheduled to take place, in about 2 minutes will no longer go ahead. (Crowd boos) But as I have stated before I am a man who wants to give everyone a go. So Tomko, Kane, Umaga and Kozlov don’t be so disappointed for next week you will still get the chance to become the number one contender. However, it will not be in a fatal fourway match. You see, this could leave four of the best superstars in WWE Europe without a chance to get another shot at the European Title. So next week, there will be an 8 man over the top rope battle royal to determine the number one contender. It will be the before mentioned 4 men competing along with the 4 men who do not become the European Champion in tonight’s main event! (Crowd pops)
-Shelton Benjamin is seen in the lockeroom, looking tentative and scared. Paul Burchill and David John Gabriel appear behind him and tap in on the shoulder-
Shelton: Ahh! Woah, it’s only you guys, I thought you were… never mind… What’s up?
Burchill: I’m not sure if you saw earlier Shelton, but we became the first ever European Tag Team Champions, and well, the leader of our establishment, the great William Regal, is competing in the Scramble Match tonight, despite Mark Henry’s earlier attack on us. And I would like to tell you Shelton, if you do anything to jeopardize Sir William’s chance at winning the European Championship, you will have to answer to us.
-Goldust and “Goldhaas†appear behind Britannia-
Goldust and Goldhaas: (Deep Breath)
-Gabriel and Burchill turn around with a surprised look on their face-
Burchill: Well look who we have here…
Suddenly it breaks down and Goldust and Goldhaas begin to brawl with Britannia and Shelton slips out the lockeroom door. Benjamin walks down the corridor, and is jumped by Mark Henry!!! Henry begins an attack on Benjamin and lifts him into a World’s Strongest Slam, only to charge him right into the wall!!!
-Back ringside-
Matthews: Oh My God! Mark Henry strikes again. He has now individually taken out his entire competition in tonight’s European Championship Scramble match!
Kennedy: Did I not tell Shelton to watch his back? Hmmm… yeah, I think I did!
Rhodes: Nevertheless after this commercial break will be our European Championship Scramble Match Main Event!
Kennedy: Bet you can’t say that five times backwards…
*Commercial*
“Rule, Britannia!†hits and William Regal is one of the first two competitors in our Main Event Match!
“Death Grip†Hits and Mike Knox is the 2nd competitor who will start out this match.
European Championship Scramble Match
William Regal vs. Mike Knox vs. Mark Henry vs. Christian vs. Shelton Benjamin
Both men look like they are still feeling the effects of the Mark Henry assaults from earlier this evening. Both men don’t want to make any mistakes in the early going so they start of slow with a couple of exchanges, and this suits Regal much more then Knox, therefore Regal gets the advantage. Regal with the single leg take down sends Knox to the mat, and Regal moves into a grounded hammerlock. After a short while Regal spins into a front headlock. Knox is able to work back to his feet but Regal still has the front headlock applied. Eventually Knox throws Regal over his head with a big back body drop! Knox rolls to the outside to gain some composure to jeers from the crowd. Regal regains himself, but the wily veteran is in no hurry to go after Knox knowing 3 men are still to enter this match. Knox finally re-enters the ring and he charges at Regal. Knox though is too over zealous and Regal catches him with a roll up… 1…. 2……. But Knox kicks out after almost being caught. Knox throws a wild right hand while regaining his feet and it rocks Regal’s jaw. Regal is staggering and Knox takes advantage with an STO taking Regal to the mat. Knox drops elbows on Regal and stomps away at the Englishman. The crowd is really giving it to Knox and trying to get their fellow Englishman William Regal back into the match. Knox goes for a cover but Regal is able to get the shoulder up at 2. Knox locks in a rear headlock to a grounded Regal and the timer appears on the tron…

Shelton heads to the ring too looking quite ginger from the attack from Mark Henry, but he hits the ring and immediately gets an adrenaline rush. Knox comes at Benjamin, but Shelton baseball slides through his legs, grabbing the single leg and rolls through into a single-leg Boston crab!

Both men are down, and Knox is still reeling on the outside… and the timer appears on the tron!
