Kelly has a mic, and her target is Trish Stratus . . . She runs down Trish and the others, saying that they are fossils and the VIXXENS are the future of women's wrestling.

Kelly accepts the challenge and Karen Angle books Trish vs Kelly in the main event of tonight's show!

Match 1: 3 way dance (referee Trinity)
Audrey Marie
Vs
Candice Michelle
Vs
Jessicka HavokThis match stems from the battle royale where Candice and Audrey earned their contracts with BQ . . . Audrey and Candice were the last 2 remaining, while Jessicka just missed the cut, being eliminated by Candice . . .
Havok comes out wearing her Umbrella Corporation jumpsuit and her gas mask (Resident Evil gear), and she totally dominates Audrey and Candice in the early goings. Candice and Audrey manage to join forces and take Havok out of the match and go at it themselves. Audrey connects with a running knee strike in the corner then nails the elbow drop driver, but Havok is back in to beak it up. Havok goes for a pile driver on Audrey, but Candice grabs her and nails the Candy Wrapper! 1 . . . 2 . . . Havok kicks out!!!! Candice is shocked, allowing Audrey to come from behind and nail her with a big roundhouse kick that knocks her out of the ring! Audrey picks Jessicka up to finish her off, but Havok scoops her up and drills her with an Air Raid Crash!!!! 1 . . . 2 . . . 3! It's over!
After the match, Havok takes the mic and cuts a promo about making an impact on the very first show of the new era of Battle Queens . . .
Jessicka Havok - 'You see that right there???? That is only the beginning! Jessicka Havok is here in Battle Queens to make an impact! Look at me! Do I look cookie cutter to you???? You take one look at me and you can see that I am not a dime a dozen like all these other sluts in the locker room. I'm 6 foot 2 . . . 170 pounds . . . And I'll take on any one of those bitches in that locker room! Battle Queens can throw at me what they want, because Jessicka Havok will . . . Kill . . . A . . . Bitch!!!! Jessicka Havok is a woman of her word . . . And the takeover of Battle Queens has begun!'BATTLE QUEENS SPOTLIGHT: this weeks spotlight is on the reigning BQ tag team champions, Portia Perez and Nicole Matthews, the Canadian Ninjas. We get some highlight clips, then a few words from the champs, who are excited about the return of Battle Queens and are anxious to defend their titles. The Ninjas will be in action on the next show, where they will defend their tag titles against a team that will be determined tonight!Match 2: Singles Match (referee Taryn Terrell)
Jazz
Vs
Jillian HallJillian comes out with her headset on and her lips swollen from Botox. She does the Britney Spears gimmick, but Jazz just lays her out. To Jillian's credit she absorbs a lot of punishment from Jazz and then fires back with some offense of her own but it is not enough. Jazz nearly takes her head off with a huge lariat, then plants her with a fisherman buster for the 3 count
Jazz flexes over the fallen body of Hall afterwards, then makes the motion around her waist that she wants to be the Battle Queens champion!
Match 3: triple threat tag team match (referee Summer Rae)
*winner gets a shot at the Battle Queens tag team titles on the next BQ Show*
The Vixxens (Brooke & Layla)
Vs
The Anti-Divas (Paige & Sweet Saraya)
Vs
Tamina Snuka & Natalya Neidhart w/ Vickie Guerrero'Excuse me . . . EXCUSE ME!' and out comes Vickie Guerrero to HUGE heat from the crowd! Vickie wants to introduce her newest clients, but the fans can just call them the next Battle Queens tag team champions, Tamina Snuka, daughter of Jimmy Snuka, and Natalya Neidhart, daughter of Jim 'The Anvil' Neidhart!
The Vixxens are the ones the fans actually cheer in this match, and all 3 teams in this match put on a great show. Each team comes close to capturing the victory on several occasions, but Vickie's interference definitely gains the advantage for her team and allows them to eliminate the mother-daughter team of Paige and Saraya when Natalya makes Saraya tap out to the sharpshooter! Brooke and Layla take the fight to the bigger team, and they nearly have the match won after Layla hits the Lay-out on Natalya! Brooke goes up top, but Tamina is back in and super kicks Brooke right off the top rope!!!! Layla grabs Tamina and goes for the Lay-out, but Tamina shoves her off right into a bearhug from Natalya! HARTATTACK!!!! Tamina up top . . . SUPERFLY SPLASH!!!! 1 . . . 2 . . . 3!!!! Natalya and Tamina move on to face the Battle Queens tag team champions!

Match 4: Singles Match (referee Daizee Haze)
AJ Lee
Vs
Brittney SavageAJ comes out and tries to offer an explanation as to why she attacked Gail Kim and injured her knee at SSW's 'Chick Fight 3' . . . However, the crowd boos her so mercilessly that she cannot even talk over them! AJ gets that crazy look in her eye and starts to twitch, and finally the boos of the crowd are too much and she snaps! AJ attacks Brittney and beats the hell out of her!!!! Brittney never stands a chance as AJ attacks her knee and puts her in a figure four around the ring post!!!! AJ is screaming 'I'm sorry!!!!' but she cranks harder on the hold and refuses to let go!!!! Daizee Haze finally pulls AJ off and goes to check on Savage . . . But AJ attacks her as well!!!! AJ tosses Haze in the ring and nails her with a Shining Wizard! AJ looks like she is going to pull her hair out . . . And she is just mouthing the words 'I'm sorry . . .'
It is intermission time now, and backstage interviewer/ referee Reby Sky is in the ring to interview Lita!
Lita is definitely one of the top faces in the new Battle Queens, and she gets a huge pop from the crowd. As she makes her way out, Matt Striker and Todd Grisham talk about Lita's match against former women's world champion Nikki Roxx at the Bunkhouse Brawl. Lita comes out and cuts a promo about how it is her dream to be a world champion, and to one day stand where Trish and Melina and Sarah stood earlier tonight . . . As living legends. Lita says that she had Nikki Roxx beat not once but twice while the ref was down, but she didn't come out here to cry about it. She knows she could beat Nikki if she had another chance, but now it wouldn't matter because Nikki is no longer the women's champion. She lays out a challenge for the new women's champion, Cindy Rogers, to come to Battle Queens and put the world title on the line against Lita!
Lita is interrupted as out comes the 'Queen of the Ring' Madison Rayne!
Madison is out to remind Lita of the pecking order here in Battle Queens. You see, this may be the new Battle Queens, but one thing hasn't changed and that is the fact that she is the 'Queen of the Ring'! And tonight, in the Fatal Fourway main event, she is going to be the one with her hand raised and she is going to be the one going on to face the United States women's champion!
'Have a Drink on Me' by AC DC hits and out comes the one and only ODB!!!!
ODB has already got a head start on a 6 pack and she pops some beers in the crowd ala the Sandman. ODB says that she came here tonight to drink beer and beat some ass, then she pours out her beer down the throat of a nearby fan. ODB says now she is all out of beer! That means all that is left to do is beat their asses and become the No. 1 contender for the United States championship!
ODB is interrupted as out comes Hamada, and all she does is simply give the other 3 women the throat-slash gesture . . . Our main event is going to be a good one!
Match 5: singles match (referee Allison Danger)
Sarah Stock
Vs
MelinaStock is sooooo over with the Battle Queens fans, that is why she is the BQ icon . . . She is like the Tommy Dreamer of Battle Queens . . . Meanwhile, Melina is looking to recreate her career after being the very first women's champion and one of the longest reigning women's champions of all time. The match itself is exciting, but toward the end of the match it looks like Melina might have it won after hitting the Sunset Split on Stock. However, the lights in the arena drop and on the big screen we see a movie reel counting backwards from 10 . . . It starts raining silver glitter from the ceiling, which distracts Melina. When she goes back after Stock, she has had time to recover and she scoops up Melina and nails the Stock Market Crash (fireman carry double knee gutbuster)! Stock covers and gets the 3 count to win the match!
After the match, Melina leaves obviously confused by what has happened while Stock remains behind and celebrates with the fans. Stock takes the mic and cuts a promo about wanting a shot at the United States women's title, which is now recognized as the top title in Battle Queens. However, 'Sweet Dreams' by Marilyn Manson hits and this brings out . . . Jessicka Havok!!!! What is she doing back out here???? Havok gets in the ring and wastes no time getting right in the face of Sarah Stock! Havok is talking trash . . . Clothesline by Havok takes out Stock!!!! Stock has just wrestled a long match with Melina and cannot fight back! The attack continues, and Havok just beats the hell out of Stock. She lays her out with the Air Raid Crash and leaves her laying in the middle of the ring!
Match 6: Four Corner Survival (referee Jackie Moore)
*winner gets a United States women's title shot*
'The Queen' Madison Rayne
Vs
Hamada
Vs
Lita
Vs
ODBThis match steals the show on a card full of good matches. Lita is the most over performer in the match, but the fans love ODB's antics as well. Madison heels it up, while Hamada might be the workhorse of the match. At one point Lita wipes out Madison with a suicide dive to the outside and Hamada and ODB find themselves face to face in the ring alone. They beat the hell out of each other, but Hamada rocks ODB with a spinning back-fist and then drills her with the AP Cross (fisherman driver)! The 3 count is broken up by Lita, who hits a snap DDT that spikes Hamada right on her head! Lita goes up top, but Madison is back in and trips her up. Madison climbs up top and tries to super-plex Lita off, but ODB grabs Madison off the top and power bombs her to the mat . . . LITA-CANRANA OFF THE TOP TAKES OUT ODB!!!! Lita and Madison both pull themselves up in the middle of the ring . . . Kick to the gut by Lita . . . Twist of Fate!!!! 1 . . . 2 . . . 3!!!! Lita wins the title shot!!!!
Lita celebrates with the fans as she will receive a shot at Kelly Kelly and the United States Women's title!!!!
Matt Striker and Todd Grisham run down the next Battle Queens show, which will feature the BQ tag titles being defended as the Canadian Ninjas put the belts on the line against Vickie Guerreros impressive team of Natalya & Tamina . . . The Battle Queens title will also be on the line as, by virtue of her win in the previous match, Lita will face the champion! . . . Vs . . .
Main Event - singles match (referee Reby Sky)
(United States women's champion) Kelly Kelly
Vs
Trish StratusKelly attacks Trish at the bell, then stops to jaw with the fans about how she is the best. Trish is back up and unleashes a flurry of forearm shots, but Kelly goes to the eyes. She goes to the top, but Trish counters with the Stratus-phere (handstand huricanrana)! Trish goes for the Stratus-faction, but Kelly reverses it into a nice German suplex with a bridge for a 2 count. Kelly hits a handspring back elbow in the corner, but Trish reverses the K2 attempt into a power bomb and both women are down. Trish goes on the offensive now, hitting a Thesz Press and hammering her with right hands. Kelly dodges a charge in the corner, then goes for a BIG roundhouse kick . . . But Trish ducks!!!! Chick Kick connects!!!! Trish grabs Kelly . . . Stratus-faction!!!! 1 . . . 2 . . . Noooooo! The ref gets pulled out at the last second before the 3 count by Brooke and Layla!
Reby calls for the bell and disqualifies Kelly, but the attack is on at this point as the Vixxens beat down Trish! The beat down continues for a moment until the fans pop as out of the back runs Lita!!!! Lita hits the ring and nails a Thesz Press on Kelly, hammering her with right hands until she is pulled off by Brooke and Layla! They hold her arms as Kelly slaps Lita in the face, and she grabs the United States woman's title and tries to hit her with it but Lita kicks her in the stomach! Trish is back up and Lita and Trish clean house on the Vixxens, ending with Trish KO-ing Brooke with the women's title and Lita laying Kelly out with a twist of fate!!!! Lita goes up top . . . LITA-SAULT ON KELLY!!!! Layla and Brooke retrieve their fallen comrade as Trish looks at the United States women's title . . . Then hands it to Lita!!!! Lita holds up the title and the faces stand tall to end the show!!!!
