Xtreme Championship Wrestling Presents FULL THROTTLE - LIVE from the Bryce Jordan Center in State College, Pennsylvania
**PYRO**PYRO**PYRO**
The excitement is in the air as XCW: FULL THROTTLE begins. The camera pans around the packed Bryce Jordan Center as fans cheer as "Ladies and Gentlemen" plays over the loudspeakers. The fans begin cheering even louder as the camera pans around from fan to fan, giving each their moment in thespotlight before moving on. The camera finally comes to rest on the broadcast booth as both Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler sit speaking to one another. Thenotice the camera and adjust the microphones before speaking.
JR: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the sold out Bryce Jordan Center in State College, Pennsylvania as we bring you LIVE wrestling entertainment tonight in the form of Xtreme Championship Wrestling...FULL THROTTLE! I'm your announcer, Jim Ross, and I am joined at ringside by my partner, Jerry "The King" Lawler, and I must say King, last week's show was huge!
King: You got that right, JR! We had the debut of a great new addition to the XCW roster, Bryan Danielson.
JR: Yes, and then MVP managed to get a huge victory over his arch nemesis, AJ Styles.
King: But, possibly the biggest event of the evening was the announcement of the new GM for XCW: Full Throttle, the one, the only, the legendary...
JR: HULK HOGAN!
King: Thanks for stealing my thunder, JR.
There is a slight awkward pause before the men continue.
JR: Sorry, King. Following Mr. Hogan's announcement, we witnessed an amazing 4 versus 4 tag team match in which we saw both Evan Bourne and El Generico debut with a huge win over The Edgeheads and Morrison and Miz. The main event was voted on by the fans and Edge was chosen to take on Kurt Angle for the World Title. Kurt Angle managed to get a come from behind victory however and maintain his grasp on the most coveted award in wrestling today.
King: Edge had really put a beating on Kurt, but Angle dug down deep and managed to capitalize on Edge's inability to check his ego at the door. Though I'm sure that Edge would tell the story differently.
Suddenly "Real American" hits the loudspeakers and the crowd explodes into applause. Hulk Hogan makes his way out onto the entrance ramp and nods his head approvingly as he strokes his goatee. He holds a microphone in hand and wears a black pinstripe suit and his usual red and yellow bandanna.
Hogan: That's right ...HULKAMANIA IS RUNNIN' WILD TONIGHT IN PENNSYLVANIA!
The crowd pops again as Hogan nods once more and smiles widely.
Hogan: It's great to be back in Pennsylvania and thank you for such a warm welcome. Now, to business, I am sure many of you are wandering what the card for tonight's show is going to be. Well, I figured that since this is my first ever show as General Manager that we would have some fun. Breaking Point, our next pay per view, will be upon us before we know it brother, and as I see it, we don't have a challenger for Kurt Angle and his World Heavyweight Title. Tonight, we are going to throw out all the rules and have a good old fashioned Battle Royal!
The audience gives a mixed reaction as they are unsure exactly what Hogan means.
Hogan: Tonight's show is going to consist of one match. A Battle Royal in which we will begin with two members of the roster. We will randomly add a new member every two minutes, brother, until a total of thirty superstars have entered the ring! The only way to be eliminated is to be tossed over the top rope to the floor below. Now, you may be asking yourself why the Hulkster is doing this. This match is very important because the winner of this match, whoever it may be, becomes the number one contender for the World Title at Breaking Point!
The crowd cheers as Hulk sticks his chin out and bobs his head. Hogan taunts the crowd by putting his hand to his ear and then leaves the entrance area.
JR: What an interesting way to start his tenure here at XCW as Mr. Hogan has decided to have a Battle Royal to determine the number one contender for the World Title at Breaking Point.
King: It is, JR, and with thirty participants, almost everyone on the roster has a shot at being in that match! There are forty-five men on the roster currently, and its obvious that Kaz who is injured and Kurt who is the champ already won't be participating.
JR: When we return, Hogan's Battle Royal!
XCW goes to commercial break.
JR: Here we go folks, Mr. Hogan has announced a battle royal to determine the challenger for the World Title at Breaking Point, and we are about to get under way.
King: Hold on to your seats!
MATCH 1: Thirty Man, over the top rope Battle Royal for #1 Contention
Entry #1: Ken Kennedy
Entry #2: Rob Van Dam
The two men walk slowly around the ring measuring one another before finally locking up. The grapple ends in a stale mate and they push off one another and wait to attack again. Kennedy points a finger at RVD and motions that he is going over the top rope, RVD remains focused and cracks his knuckles before motioning for Kennedy to come at him again. Kennedy obliges and charges at RVD, but RVD counters with a hip toss that RVD turns into a arm bar. Kennedy looks back at RVD, angry that he got caught off guard, and pushes himself off the mat to his feet. Kennedy tweaks Ken's arm, but Ken manages to reverse the hold only to get kicked in the leg, then in the side of the head by RVD! Kennedy steps back and considers the head shot, then charges with his shoulder lowered. RVD leaps over Kennedy, but Kennedy has the move well scouted and bounds off the rope, returning with a stiff shoulder block. RVD smacks on the mat and grabs the back of his head in pain. Kennedy does not let up as he begins stomping on RVD's torso.
JR: An impressive start here for Ken Kennedy. He is showing RVD that he isn't going to just lay down and cover up to Rob's aggressive offensive flurries.
Entry #3: Finlay
King: And things just got even more interesting as we are adding possibly the best all around brawler in all of XCW: Finlay!
Finlay tackles the back of Kennedy's leg from behind, dropping him to the mat. Kennedy grabs his knee and stands as Finlay pulls him to his feet. Kennedy fires a hook in rebuttal, and Finlay accepts the blow and drops Kennedy back to the mat with his own hard right hook. Finlay drives his elbow into Kennedy's chest and Kennedy grabs his chest in pain. RVD stands and watches Finlay work on Kennedy for a moment RVD pulls himself up to the top turnbuckle and sits, checking the tape on his wrist. Finlay pulls Kennedy back to his feet again and slings him to the corner opposite of RVD. Kennedy slams, back first, into the corner and cringes before getting squashed by Finlay's running back elbow shot. RVD motions for Finlay to whip Kennedy to him and Finlay nods, epitomizing the concept of an "Irish whip" by slinging Kennedy toward RVD. RVD leaps high into the air and nails a cross body on Kennedy.
JR: What a move by Rob Van Dam! Great in-ring awareness!
King: That's part of what makes RVD so dangerous, he is constantly aware of all of his surroundings, not to mention that he is an amazing athlete!
Entry #4: John Morrison
Finlay and Morrison lock up as Morrison charges right at him. Finlay gains the upper hand, but Morrison feints an attack and ducks under Finlay's arm. Morrison clubs Finlay in the back of his head with a hard forearm shot and smiles cockily as he grabs Finlay with a front face lock and drives his skull into the mat with a DDT. Morrison stands and wraps Finlay's head with a sleeper hold, meanwhile RVD has fought Kennedy back into a corner and pounds away with backhand chops. Kennedy finally battles back with a scoop that throws RVD over the top rope and onto the apron. RVD balances carefully and regains control, but Kennedy is too quick and drives his shoulder between the ropes right into RVD's ribs, knocking him from the apron to the floor below.
Elimination #1: Rob Van Dam
Entry #5: Umaga
King: Ah oh, JR. Things are not looking up for the competitors in the ring as the Samoan Bulldozer Umaga is making his way to the ring!
JR: And Rob Van Dam is surely disappointed as his time in the battle royal comes to an end in what he will certainly considering a short lived attempt at Title contention.
Umaga gets into the ring and roars ferociously as Kennedy, Morrison, and eventually Finlay charge him. Umaga drops all three men to the mat with a Samoan Spike! Umaga again roars at the top of his lungs with an indecipherable scream. He pulls Morrison to his feet and angrily slings him over the top rope like a rag doll.
Elimination #2: John Morrison
JR: My Gawd! Umaga is on a rampage, King! This match could be very quickly out of anyone else's grasp in the first few moments if he keeps this up!
Finlay struggles to get to his feet as Umaga looks from Kennedy to Finlay and out to the crowd as if considering his next move. Finlay stands and Umaga comes at him with a shoulder block that rocks Finlay back to the mat. Umaga grabs Finlay's head and yanks him up to his feet. Finlay kicks Umaga in the gut, and Umaga counters by driving his arm into Finlay's face with a hard clothesline that flips him up and over the top rope to the floor.
Elimination #3: Finlay
Kennedy stands and backs into a corner, already tired from the beating he has sustained. Umaga charges him in the corner in an attempt to splash him, but Kennedy ducks and allows Umaga to slam into the turnbuckle chest first! Kennedy seizes his chance with another, more effective kick to the gut of Umaga which causes him to double over. Kennedy nails a swinging neck breaker that rocks the ring.
JR: What a come back by Kennedy, he is showing amazing survivability!
King: JR, have you ever heard of a 'breathe mint?' Here.
JR: Thanks...I think.
Entry #6: Chris Sabin
Sabin dives under the bottom rope and runs toward Kennedy. Kennedy sees him coming and hits a back elbow then scoops him up into a fireman's carry. Kennedy rolls forward and drives Sabin into the mat then shakes his head back and forth as if he has been bothered by a pesky fly. He mouths something to himself and looks back toward Umaga who is beginning to rise. Kennedy hits a double axe-handle, then another, but Umaga is barely phased by the blows. Kennedy grabs Umaga's head and drives his knee upward into Umaga's face, causing Umaga to rock backward. Kennedy follows up with a forward Russian leg sweep that downs the giant again. Sabin gets to his feet and leaps toward Kennedy, who turns and gets flipped over by a tilt-a-whirl head scissors take-down. Sabin stands as both Umaga and Kennedy lie on their backs. Sabin looks back and forth and decides to try and push Umaga over the nearby ropes. Umaga gets to both feet and grabs the top rope as Sabin pushes, rather comically, from behind.
JR: Um, King, it would seem that Chris Sabin needs a lesson or two in simple Physics.
King: Either that, or he needs to add about hundred pounds and really hit the weight room!
Entry #7: Christian Cage
Cage leaps into the ring from the ring apron and instantaneously heads toward Kennedy. Kennedy has managed to get to one knee, but Christian boots him in the head and then applies a half-boston crab in an attempt to further weaken him. Umaga finally comes to and shrugs Sabin off, launching him into the corner of the ring. Umaga looks at him ferociously and begins walking toward him. Sabin launches a flurry of punches and kicks to Umaga’s midsections, which seem to slow him down a bit, but abruptly his attack is ended as Umaga cracks his forehead with his own massive brow. Sabin has a look of shock on his face as he dazedly stumbles back into the corner for support. Umaga wraps his mammoth hands around Sabin’s neck and tosses him high into the air over the top rope and onto the apron. Sabin manages to regain his wits and slides under the bottom rope back into the ring as Umaga follows him.
Entry #8: James Storm
Storm takes off his trench coat and climbs the ring steps. He stands on the apron and watches for a moment before walking over to the area where Christian Cage maintains a submission hold on Kennedy. Storm points at him and signals that Christian is going down, then he climbs between the top to ropes into the ring. Christian breaks the hold on Kennedy and charges forward with a clothesline. Christian holds the double 'c' taunt in the air over his head and then drives knuckle after knuckle into the skull of James Storm. Storm gets knocked to his butt and throws his arms up in defense as Christian pounds away on him. Umaga traps Sabin in the opposite corner and both Sabin and Storm get irish whipped into one another in the middle of the ring. The crack heads and fall to the mat. Umaga lifts Sabin and prepares to toss him over, but Christian sees his opportunity to down a very large threat in Umaga. Christian waits for Umaga to bend over and grab Sabin's head, then he in turn grabs Umaga's head and slams it into the mat.
JR: What a turn of events as Christian seemed to be waiting for his chance to down the three hundred and fifty pound monster that is Umaga!
King: Yeah, but now he has to actually get him over the top rope and down to the floor! That's the hard part!
Entry #9: CM Punk
Christian pulls Umaga up and hurriedly drags him toward the ropes. Umaga struggles to stand as Christian prepares to lift him from behind and push him over. Sabin gets up and joins Christian, as does Kennedy and James Storm! CM Punk gets on the apron and tries to pull Umaga over the rope as all five men push with all their might. Umaga seems to awaken soon after and begins to put up a struggle as Punk pounds away on his back with elbow and fist. Sabin runs to the opposite ropes and springs off of them for momentum then dives with a cross body that knocks Umaga over the top rope, knocks Punk off the apron, and sends Kennedy, Sabin, Storm, and Christian reeling to the mat!
Elimination #4: CM Punk
Elimination #5: Umaga
JR: Wow! Sabin has just eliminated CM Punk AND Umaga in swift move! Great idea there as the high risk maneuver definitely paid off!
King: I wouldn't say it paid off just yet, he still has to deal with an aggravated Christian Cage, Ken Kennedy, and James Storm! If anything, he made matters much worse!
JR: We will be right back in a few moments folks, don't go anywhere!
XCW goes to a commercial break.

Elimination #7: James Storm
Entry #12: Booker T

Meanwhile, Kennedy and Christian go toe-to-toe as Kennedy gains the upper hand and hits his signature face wash on Christian who is downed in the corner. Kennedy lifts Christian and prepares for the mic-check, but Christian recognizes the setup and elbows his way free. Christian attempts an atomic drop, but Kennedy plows him over with a lariat.
JR: What a match for Kennedy so far, he has almost made it from being the first entrant to still being in the match at half way. Great showing for him tonight, but can he keep it up?
King: Good point, JR. I want to know who the last entrant is going to be? That is always a coveted position to be in during any random battle royal like this one.
JR: Well, I don't know the answer to that, but I do know that we are being joined by an honorable guest at ring side, the Olympic Gold Medalist, Kurt Angle! Welcome Kurt!
The camera shows Angle put on a set of head phones and have a seat next to JR. He wears blue jeans and a tight red tee shirt that says "XCW" on the back. He wears dark sunglasses and holds the World Title belt over his shoulder.
Kurt Angle: Thanks, Jim. And King, I will tell you right here and now: it doesn't matter who gets that last position. In fact, it doesn't even matter who wins this. We are all simply wasting our time by even being here tonight and Hogan has already managed to piss me off! Come Breaking Point, whoever is standing across that ring from me is going to get their damn ankle broken!
JR: But Mr. Angle, you must understand...
Kurt Angle: I don't have to understand anything! Hogan has been on the job for one week and has already decided that I should have a competitor for Breaking Point, even though I took Edge to the limit on Full Throttle and defended my title! That's REDICULOUS!
King: I can't say I blame him, he is only trying to do what is best...
Kurt Angle: You know what, King, SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTH!
Entry #13: Elijah Burke
Burke makes his way to the ring and surveys what has transpired. Kennedy and Christian are trading blows in the corner of the ring while Sabin and Shelley continue to fight off Booker T who is beginning to overpower them.

Both Booker and Elijah charge with a double team clothesline, but Shelley ducks and grabs the rope sending both men to the floor!
Elimination #9: Booker T
Elimination #10: Elijah Burke
JR: What awareness by Alex Shelley!
Kurt Angle: He still doesn't stand snowball's chance in hell at winning this match. Not that it matters because then he would have to get past me, and I'm an Olympic Champion!
Entry #14: Jimmy Jacobs
JR: Here is another new addition to the XCW roster, as Jimmy Jacobs makes his way to the ring. This man has a huge following in the independent wrestling circuit, and I'm sure he is going to make a splash here at XCW.
Jacobs climbs onto the apron and taunts the crowd, but in doing so sets himself up for a running drop kick from Alex Shelley that sends him flailing to the floor!

JR: Things not looking good for Christian here as Kennedy manages to mount some offense in this match.
Kurt Angle: How many times have I said it: the best defense is a strong offense. Kennedy is going to have the best shot at winning this match if he can continue to pound on his opponents, instead of trying to avoid getting pounded on. Not that it matters because whoever wins is just going to get to pound me!
King: Um...do you mean "pounded by me"?
Kurt Angle: You know what the hell I mean Jerry!
Kennedy lifts Christian again and irish whips him. Ken uses the momentum to back body drop Christian high over the top rope and down to the floor below.

Elimination #13: Alex Shelley
In an amazing turn of events, the crowd begins cheering for Kennedy! He looks around the audience awkwardly as if he isn't sure how to react.

There is a brief pause, then out comes the next opponent: JBL.
Entry #15: John Bradshaw Layfield
JBL points at Kennedy and mouthes some trash talk before pulling himself up onto the ring apron. He climbs between the ropes and charges at Kennedy.

Kennedy hits a jawbreaker and then follows up with a clothesline of his own. JBL drops to the mat, grabbing his face in pain. The crowd starts to chant "Kennedy, Kennedy, Kennedy."
JR: It seems Kennedy has gotten a second wind here as the fans rally behind him. We may have ourselves a new fan favorite!
King: I always kinda liked Kennedy's style.
Kurt Angle: I would expect that from you, King, he is a loud mouth idiot just like yourself! I have had enough of this, I'll leave you two ass-monkeys to your job.
Angle gets up and slams down his headset before leaving ringside with his title.
Kennedy pulls JBL to his feet and slings him to the ropes again. Kennedy misses a back elbow, drops to his chest and causes JBL to jump over him, then gets pummeled by a clothesline from Hell!
JR: This could be it for Kennedy!

Sting looks toward Kennedy for a moment, then grabs JBL's legs and applies a scorpion death lock. JBL screams in agony as he realizes his predicament. Kennedy ponders his next action from across the ring. Suddenly, Kennedy charges Sting and lands a big boot to his face. The crowd erupts into boos as it seems Kennedy has flopped again during this match.
JR: What a conniving move by Kennedy. He almost seemed to have the crowd behind him earlier tonight, and now he goes and does something like that.
King: It's called opportunity. You can't blame him for seeing a chance to get closer to winning this match and actually taking it.
Entry #17: Kofi Kingston

Entry #20: Goldberg
JR: Things just got REAL interesting folks as Goldberg makes his way to the ring.
Bischoff: This man is a giant. I think the complexion of this bout just turned completely. Every single man in the ring may need to work together to remove Goldberg from this match!
