VENUE - The XWA Arena (Du Burns Arena) CITY - Baltimore, Maryland BELL TIME - 7:00 PM
(Show opens with a shot of the XWA Arena (The Du Burns Arena, on the shores of the inner harbor in Baltimore, Maryland. The new theme song for XWA TV 24K Magic by Bruno Mars plays as we see clips of various XWA wrestlers.)
(The camera pans the capacity crowd before settling on our Announce team of Byron Saxton & Tammy Sytch. We see above them the banner for Wrestlemania 9.)
Saxton: Hello everyone, and welcome back to XWA TV, The best 90 minutes of wrestling action anywhere. I'm Byron Saxton, beside me is Tammy Sytch. Tammy it was a wild night at FURY. But now we are on the Road to Wrestlemania.
Sytch: And we are going to make Wrestlemania Great Again....
Saxton: Oh no...
Sytch: ...When Chris Candido finally becomes the World Junior Heavyweight Champion! Whooo!
Saxton: Can we even pretend to be non-biased out here? Well on today's show we have ourselves a big Main Event as The XWA Tag Team Champions, Bullet Club face the Young Kings for those belts.
Sytch: Also... we will hear live tonight from the one and only Cruiserweight Champion Chris Candido!
Saxton: Joy.... Also tonight we have learned that Dixie Carter is running a Womens Tournament in conjunction with Next Generation to crown the Femme Fatale Champion. Tonight we see Lacey facing Naomi. All that plus another appearance from John Morrison. Now let's send it to Eden for our first match.
Eden: This is our opening bout!
Public Enemy Philadelphia, PA
vs
Ricky & Richie Steamboat North Carolina
(The PE come to the ring dancing and prancing. But once the bell rings its the Father/son duo that are poetry in motion. They simply outclass the street brawlers and Richie ends it with Exodus (Fisherman Suplex into a Piledriver) on Grunge.
Winners: The Steamboats
Saxton: The Steamboats make short work of their competition tonight.
Sytch: Not sure you can classify the Public Enemy as "competition"...
Saxton: Be that as it may this team has been a roll since forming.
Sytch: Kinda like cream cheese.
(Camera is in the back where we see XWA Interviewer, Charly Caruso with the World Heavyweight Champion, Kevin Steen & Paul Heyman.)
Caruso: After what was a truly remarkable battle at FURY, you Kevin Steen are still the World Champion. Up next for you... Wrestlemania and Nick Bockwinkel.
Heyman: Well it's not like the champ to say "I told you so". But I'm not the champ, and its definitely like me! So I TOLD YOU SO! Two men entered trying to take this from Kevin (F*ckin) Steen. And they failed... So tell me Nicky old boy... What do you think your chances are? Let me tell you something. I watched some tape of you the other day. You know what stood out to me??? Your pencil neck... I wonder just how loud the crack is going to be when my client hits you with the Package Piledriver?.... And lets get this straight. He's not going to do it to you because he "hates you" or because of the "Honor" of Main Eventing Wrestlemania. It's going to happen because he enjoys hurting people and you just happen to be the poor guy who pulled the short straw of life.
Caruso: What about Adam Cole and Bullet Club?
Heyman: What about him? He's done!
Caruso: Well people are saying he didn't defeat him. That he pinned Michael Elgin.
Heyman: Little girl... It... was... A... Triple... Threat... Match! Check the record books. They both get a loss. Truth is the champion could have pinned either man that night.
Caruso: The fact remains that many have said Kevin Steen has never pinned Adam Cole cleanly.
Steen: Cleanly???!!! Like the (Bleeping) Bullet Club ever beat anyone clean? Like how they tried to jump me last show but didn't get the job done! Adam Cole is a fraud! His entire little cap gun posse are frauds. They step to me one more time and they will join the "Drop You On You're F*ckin Head Tour". Keep annoying me with your stupid questions and you could join the tour yourself.
(Steen storms off as Heyman grins at Charly.)
Saxton: Time for our first match in the XWA side of the the Femme Fatale tournament.
Sytch: I think Amber Gallows is the favorite to win this.
Saxton: Well she's wrestling next week. Tonight its Lacey and Naomi.
Sytch: *Yawn* This could bad enough on its own but with you calling the action... sheesh.
Naomi Orlando, FLA
vs
Lacey Minneapolis, MN
(Back and forth match with a few near falls for each but Naomi misses a 2nd rope legdrop and Lacey hits the Implant DDT 1.. 2.. 3!)
Winner: Lacey
Saxton: Well Lacey moves on in this tournament of 8. I am told we will have a match in the tournament at out next Facebook Faceoff featuring Kana & Athena.
Sytch: That should be interesting.... NOT!
Saxton: Will you stop? Still to come tonight... Our XWA Tag Team Championship match!
Sytch: And Chris Candido!
It's time for Inside XWA with correspondent, Olivia Munn.
Munn: Welcome back to Inside XWA. FURY has ended and we are on the Road to Wrestlemania and just a week before that show will be Facebook Faceoff. The line-up for that show is as follows.
Kana vs Athena Tongan Mob Bosses vs The Young Bucks & OMEGA "Magnum" Adam Cole vs "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka Main Event: CHAOS (Okada, Nakamura & Ishii) vs Hiroshi Tanahashi, Tommy Dreamer & Michael Elgin
Let's hear from the Bucks and OMEGA.
Nick: So the big dumb Tongan Blob boys want a rematch huh?
Matt: What do they think will happen different? We beat you last time. This time will be more of the same. That's what we do.
OMEGA: You said it brother. When it comes to 6-Man units we are THE ELITE! And Facebook Faceoff will be the perfect lead in to Wrestlemania. Where next year... we will be highlighting!
Nick: And Bullet Club if you don't like that?
The Elite: you... can... SUCK IT!!!
Munn: In other news, Kyle O'Reilly suffered a separated shoulder during the Ladder Match at FURY and will be out of action an undisclosed time. We will update further on his status in the weeks to come. As for Cody Rhodes and the Bullet Club? In a recent tweet Cody did indeed confirm his membership and stated "Bullet Club is spreading throughout the UWF. It can't be stopped. #Bang" Could we see more members pop up in other territories? Time will tell. That's all for this time. For Inside XWA, I'm Olivia Munn, Good night.
(After the break we switch to outside the arena where a Limousine pulls up and out walks John Morrison in his wrestling gear and a long mink jacket. He struts in to the building and says, "It's Showtime!")
Saxton: Last show we saw a successful XWA TV debut for John Morrison and we also saw Bullet Club's Lauren watching that match intently. Have you learned anything more?
Sytch: Well me and Lauren are bestest buds ya know. And she and I were at the Nail Salon and I asked her. She says the Bullet Club is always looking for special talents to become a part of the family. And right now John Morrison has their interest.
Saxton: So you get your exclusives at the Nail Salon?
Sytch: Sure, just like you get yours by hanging around Harry Potter conventions.
Saxton: I thought you usually got yours around the men's showers...
Sytch: Watch it Saxton!
Luke Robinson Auburn, ME
vs
John Morrison Los Angeles, CA
(Luke Robinson hasn't been seen in a while but he is trying to get back in the business. But the ring rust shows here as he has a tough go of it against Morrison. We see mid match that Gedo of CHAOS has come out to watch the match. John counters a tilt-A-Whirl attempt into a Russian Legsweep. Then hits Starship Pain for the win.)
Winner: John Morrison
(After Gedo makes eye contact with Morrison and gives him a slight bow and nod of approval.)
Sytch: OKAYYY... Why was Gedo out here?
Saxton: Could he be scouting Morrison for a place in CHAOS?
Sytch: Well I thought they were all about Eastern dominance but it certainly seemed like Gedo was showing interest.
Saxton: When someone with this much talent comes around you know people are going to want to be involved with them.
Sytch: How would you know? No one wants to be involved with you...
(Camera switches backstage to Dixie Carter's office. In walks the Canadian Ninjas.)
Carter: Jeez. Look girls, I don't have the time for the crazy today. So let's cut to the chase/ What do you want?
Matthews: Well I want your job.
Perez: I want to be owner. Can you tell Snoop to sell to me?
Carter: Damn it girls, I will toss you out of here...
Perez: Calm down Dixie!. Jeez.. switch to decaffeinated.
Matthews: We know Trinity was given the title shot at Wrestlemania over us. Which is total B.S. But we want a match with them anyway. Nothing on the line. Just a match but Gedo and whoever is the 3rd member not in the ring is barred from ringside!
Carter: If I do this, will you please go away.
Matthews: She sure is cranky...
Perez: I bet its because her and Mr Carter Haven't had any "sexy time".
Matthews: All work and no play...
Perez: Exactly.. You can see it on her face. So frustrated.
Carter: Get out!!!
(The Ninjas seemed genuinely surprised by her outburst and leave acting insulted. Dixie then starts banging her own head on the desk.)
Carter: Note to self: Get a lock for that damn door... And a guard dog... Maybe a tiger...
(Charly Caruso is in the ring as she introduces the XWA Cruiserweight Champion, Chris Candido)
Caruso: Chris... you can hear from the reaction. You are not very popular here in the XWA Arena.
Candido: Are you kidding? These people love me. It's just the fake media like yourself that say different. I made XWA great again. Now I am making Wrestlemania great again. And after winning the World Junior Heavyweight Championship I will make all of the UWF great again. It's kind of my thing.
Caruso: Does your thing include beating up Finn Balor fans?
Candido: Hey! That fan attacked me first. Everyone saw that. I think he was Mexican or something.
Caruso: What does that have to do with anything? And he was wearing paint how could you tell where he was from?
Candido: Body paint.. Right there we see the problem. he probably had Roid rage or something. We know that the one Balor wears is laced with PEDs That's why I got right here from commissioner Paul Boesch a stop and desist order on the body paint until a full investigation can be made.
Caruso: That's preposterous! What does any of this have to do with beating up that poor fan?
Candido: Like I said. The fan started it. If you come across that barrier I can defend myself. And I will. We will not let these ingrates destroy what I have built.
Caruso: You're a mess. Good luck not getting destroyed at Wrestlemania.
(Candido brushes her off before posing to the crowd. Then as he leaves he passes a bunch of fans all done up in paint. He looks at them and says he is going to impose a ban on any fans trying to enter his arena with body paint. Then one fan tosses water in his face. Candido grabs the fan and pulls him over the railing but we can see its actually the Junior Heavyweight Champion, Finn Balor!! Finn jumps up with an enzuguiri to the head of Candido. He then springs off the railing and hits a Tornado DDT on the floor! The crowd is going crazy. He tosses Chris back into the ring he pulls him up... Bloody Sunday! Candido is laid out as Finn plays to the crowd.)
Sytch: What the (BLEEP) was that??!!!
Saxton: Tammy your language!!! Please! Ladies and Gentlemen I apologize it was in the heat of the moment I'm sure.
Sytch: I'm sorry! But... That is uncalled for! That was a heinous attack! He should be arrested for this!
Saxton: Well it does look like security is here and is escorting Balor out the arena.
Sytch: And hopefully in to a Jail cell.
Saxton: Up next we have a special match here as Bobby Fish is in a singles match as Kyle O'Reilly suffered an injury at FURY.
Sytch: ....
Saxton: Tammy?
Sytch: Yeah... Bobby Fish. Great.
Saxton: OKAY. My partner is still pretty steamed but we have him going up against ACH in what should be a fun affair.
ACH Austin, TX
vs
Bobby Fish Former World Tag Team Champion Albany, NY
(Sprited match with ACH and Bobby playing by the rules but still letting the fur fly. ACH catches Fish with a Uranage. Then hits a running Senton. He goes to the apron for the 450 but Bobby rolls away. The match continues and Bobby gets ACH down in a Crossface. ACH fights and gets a rope break.
More back and forth action including a spectacular dive by ACH onto Fish on the outside. He rolls Bobby in and goes to the apron he sets up and does a Springboard dive ... but Bobby had it scouted and hits Sleeps With The Fishes (Spin kick). ACH is dazed. Bobby nails the Flying Fish Hook (High knee). He goes to the corner... Goldfish (Double jump Moonsault)! 1.. 2.. 3!)
Winner: Bobby Fish
(The fans give a standing ovation as Bobby and ACH shake hands after.)
Sytch: That was a pretty good match actually.
Saxton: Glad to see your feeling better.
Sytch: Yeah, I apologize for my outburst. It wont happen again but I have something to say to you Finn Balor. Wrestlemania is coming. And when it does you better enjoy the hell out of it. As I remember you wrestled at the last Wrestlemania and lost. But that will be nothing to the way you feel after Chris Candido takes your heart, your pride... and your belt. Count on it...
Saxton: We'll be back with our Main Event.
(Backstage we see Carly Caruso.)
Caruso: Right now I have with me Tommy Dreamer. Tommy I want to talk to you about what happened at FURY in your tag Team match with XWA Champion, Hiroshi Tanahashi. It seemed despite your victory you were not very happy the way the match ended.
Dreamer: Well Charly... Look I'm glad we beat CHAOS that night and kept Hiro as Champion. I just at the time was a bit surprised that Tanahashi hit me and Ishii with the High Fly Flow. But I get it. It was done to win the match and we did.
Caruso: So everything is fine with you guys?
Dreamer: Absolutely. In fact we are teaming up with Michael Elgin to face CHAOS at Facebook Faceoff. We are fine and we are going to put an end to Gedo's little army.
Caruso: It should be a great match. Thank you Tommy.
Saxton: We saw last week when Gallows and Anderson attacked World Heavyweight Champion, Kevin Steen that the Young Kings made the save. Now they get themselves a shot at the Tag Team Championship against those same Bullet Club members.
Sytch: Well they stuck their nose where it doesn't belong. Something that seems commonplace here in the XWA Arena. Now this isn't an opportunity for them. It's an opportunity for Bullet Club to teach these guys their place. Sorta like how I show you yours every week.
Saxton: Yes, I heard you do a lot of showing yours and mine around here...
Sytch: It's going to be hard for you to call a match with no teeth, Saxton!
Eden: This is our Main Event! It is for the XWA Tag Team Championship...
The Young Kings The Sunshine State
vs
Doc Gallows & Karl Anderson W/Amber Gallows XWA Tag Team Champions
(The Kings start out very strong. Using speed and quickness to keep the Champions rough house tactics at bay. However D.Young is caught with a Gallows Uppercut and the tide turns. They relentlessly beat down on him but can't keep him down for a 3 count. Anderson looks for the Gun Stun but is shoved off and he collides with Doc. This gives Darren the opportunity to make the hot tag to Kenny. He then unleashes hell all over the Champions. They try to double team him but Young clotheslines Gallows to the floor. They now set up for their finisher, Crown Royal as the fans rise to their feet. But Amber runs in and shoves Kenny off the apron as the referee calls for the bell. The fans are very disappointed but Amber saves the belts for Bullet Club.)
Winners by DQ: The Young Kings
Saxton: Damn it! The Young Kings should be champions right now!
Sytch: Well Kenny shouldn;t have instigated with Amber!
Saxton: Instigated? What are you talking about?
Sytch: He was making lewd gestures and longing looks at her. She's a married woman! She had to defend her honor.
Saxton: Did you dream this? I saw nothing of the sort. Fans despite Tammy's poor excuse at an explanation, The fact remains Young Kings get the victory but not the belts. I'm sure this is not over. But it is time for this show to be over. Thanks for watching. For Tammy Sytch, I'm Byron Saxton. Good night.
