* * * * * PROLOGUE * * * * *
We see Donald Trump seated in his office on the phone ….
TRUMP – “… You know I am taking a pretty big risk just by taking your call. At the very least it could be considered tampering, but you know you are breaching your contract. But that’s why I am such a great businessman. Things like that have never stopped me before …”
Trump pauses for a second as the person on the other end is talking ….
TRUMP – “Ah, I see. Interesting. I’m not afraid to make powerful enemies. So don’t worry about the red tape, I’ll handle all of it. I want him here, and you’re making that happen. I have always had great respect for that family, but on top of that I’ll owe you one ….”
Trump is cut off as in walks KILLER KROSS! Kross walks over to Trump’s side of the desk and takes the phone out of his hand and hangs it up .…
KROSS – “I came here to get an answer to my question …”
TRUMP – “Kevin, I want ….”
KROSS – “Shut up! This isn’t about what YOU want Mr. Trump, it’s about what I WANT! What I WANT is Adam Cole, and I want Jay White, and I want Chris Jericho …. I WANT EVERYONE!
TRUMP – “And like I said before, I like that idea. So I’m going to make the match official at RING OF VICTORY III in 3 weeks ….”
KROSS – “NO! That’s not good enough. I’m a very intelligent man Mr. Trump. And I know that all 3 of those men are in the building tonight. I want them all … TONIGHT!”
TRUMP – “Now hold on. That doesn’t give me enough time to promote a match of that ….”
KROSS cuts TRUMP off by grabbing him by the throat! The secret service men make a step toward Kross, but Trump holds up his hand to tell them to stand down …. KROSS gets down in Trumps face, and his voice is barely a whisper ….
KROSS – “I want ALL of them. And you’re going to give them to me. Because if you don’t give them to me, I am going to find them one by one. In the locker room, in the hallway, in the parking lot, in the bathroom. I will find them and I will make them all FALL … AND … PRAY! And then I will come back here and the time will be tolled for YOU, ‘Mr. President’ …”
Scarlett emerges from the shadows and is holding an hourglass, and she sits it on the desk in front of Trump. Kross and Scarlett leave ….
* * * * * SHOW OPENING * * * * *
It’s standing room only inside the HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO, the new home of MLW, and the fans are RABID …. Pyro erupts from the ringposts and above the entranceway …. As the pyro explodes, the camera focuses on the MLW flag flying above the arena before panning the crowd …. We hear the voices of MAURO RENALLO and PAT McAFEE welcoming us to the show ….
MAURO and PAT talk about the opening of the show, and say the clock is ticking for the 45th President of the United States to make a decision. Killer Kross wants to fight Adam Cole, Chris Jericho AND ‘Switchblade’ Jay White TONIGHT! Will that match happen? Tonight is already packed with 2 big title matches as Deonna Purazzo will defend the Diamonds title against Becky Lynch and Samoa Joe puts the Openweight title on the line against Shinsuke Nakamura. Plus we are supposed to have Bobby Lashley and Shane Taylor colliding in a rematch from the Bash!
Up first we are supposed to have Samoa Joe defending the Openweight title against Shinsuke Nakamura, but instead we go to the back where the cameras have found something ….
IN THE BACK –
We see Shinsuke Nakamura being tended to by trainers in the locker room, a victim of an obvious backstage attack ….
On queue, Bobby Roode and the North come out …. Roode plays innocent but it is obvious that The North had something to do with Nakamura being taken out …. Roode says that since Joe doesn’t have an opponent for tonight then the title shot should belong to Roode because he is the only one that deserves it …. Joe gives zero fucks and will fight anyone …. So the match is on ….
<center><p style="border:3px;border-style:solid;border-color:#FF0000;padding:1em;"> Openweight Title Match: (Champion) SAMOA JOE (1-0 defenses) vs. BOBBY ROODE w/ The North (Page & Alexander)
Joe dominates early, but interference from The North swings the match in Roode’s favor …. Roode hits the Glorious DDT for a close nearfall and Joe is in trouble …. Will Ospreay comes out and takes out the North with a big dive, which distracts Roode enough for Joe to catch him in the Coquina Clutch and choke him out for the tapout win ….
WINNER (and still champion): Samoa Joe….</p></center>
POST MATCH: Joe and Ospreay have a face to face and Ospreay takes the mic and says he never got his rematch against Joe and he wants it …. Joe gives zero fucks …. They agree to a title match at RING OF VICTORY …. Roode and the North are NOT happy as they make their way to the back ….
IN THE BACK –
We are in Donald Trump’s office as he addresses the crowd. As Trump is talking he keepings looking at the hourglass Kross and Scarlett put on his desk out of the corner of his eye kind of nervously ….
Trump announces that the Fatal 4 Way for the MLW title will indeed take place tonight, and that the scheduled Bobby Lashley vs. Shane Taylor match will instead main event next weeks show …. He tells Kross to be careful what he wishes for because he doesn’t want to make an enemy of him.
<center><p style="border:3px;border-style:solid;border-color:#FF0000;padding:1em;"> RIDGE HOLLAND vs. CARMELLO HAYES
Holland is a former Rugby league player that is well known throughout the UK …. He was kicked out for being ‘too violent’ …. Hayes comes out firing, but Holland puts a quick stop to that with a body avalanche and then obliterates him with European uppercuts …. Holland with some suplexes to go along with clubbing blows to the body, and Hayes fights back only to be taken out with a HUGE Rugby tackle from Holland …. Holland traps the arms and repeatedly headbutts Hayes, and he finally finishes it with the Northern Grit (Northern Lights Bomb) ….
WINNER: Ridge Holland ….</p></center>
POST MATCH: Mauro and Pat put over that Holland is the first name entered in the ‘Survival of the Fittest’ tournament that will start next week and then finish at RING OF VICTORY. Holland gets on the mic and says he likes inflicting pain, and it doesn’t matter if its Samoa Joe, Killer Kross or Chris Jericho they will all fall ….
IN THE BACK –
Valifornia are having a conference about tonight’s Diamonds title match …. Chelsea tells Purazzo that she is losing it a little and she needs to pull it together …. Deonna gets angry and tells the rest of Valifornia to stay in the back and don’t come out for her match ….
<center><p style="border:3px;border-style:solid;border-color:#FF0000;padding:1em;"> Diamonds Title Match: (Champion) ‘The Virtuosa’ DEONNA PURAZZO vs. BECKY LYNCH
They go at it hot and heavy with armdrags and mat work to start, but this ends in a stalemate and Becky slaps Purazzo across the face! From there we get intense brawling between the 2 that spills outside, and Purazzo manages to hit a rope assisted DDT on the ring apron. Purazzo takes over, setting up for the Venus De Milo, but Becky turns the tide and reverses it into the Disarm-Her! Purazzo is in danger but manages to claw her way to the ropes to break the hold …. Purazzo reverses out again but gets hit with the Man-handle Slam (Rock Bottom) for a close 2 count! Becky to the top and hits a missile dropkick! Becky sets for the Finish-Her (curb stomp), but as she comes off Deonna hits her with the bicycle kick out of nowhere! Cosa Nostra piledriver! 1 … 2 … Becky gets her foot on the ropes for a big pop!!!! Purazzo goes to the top now, but Becky recovers and hits a BIG super-plex and both women are down …. They both get to their feet at the same time and start trading shots, but Becky goes for the manhandle slam again but Purazzo elbows out! Cosa Nostra attempted again, but this time Becky reverses out and into the Disarm-Her!!!! Purazzo fights for the ropes again but this time Becky pulls her back to the center of the ring and she is trapped! Purazzo raises her hand looking like she’s going to tap …. BIANCA BELAIR IS HERE!!!! BELAIR WHIPS BECKY ACROSS THE BACK WITH HER BRAID! The ref calls for the bell ….
WINNER: No contest ….</p></center>
POST MATCH: BelAir attacks both Purazzo and Lynch and takes them out …. She picks Lynch up and hits the KOD on top Purazzo! BelAir picks up the title and poses with it, then she leaves with the title belt in her possession!
IN THE BACK –
Bianca BelAir walks through the curtain carrying the Diamonds title …. Charly Caruso meets her there and asks about her actions ….
BELAIR - “Did they think that they were just gonna have a match without her? Guuuuurlll … uuuuuh uuuuuhhhh …. I am the EST! I am the fast-EST, the strong-EST, the rough-EST, the tough-EST, THE BEST! And I am the one that this division should be built around! Time after time I have gotten passed over or screwed over, and I’m just gonna start takin whats mine! Starting with this title right here!”
Becky Lynch suddenly comes flying in out of nowhere and attacks BelAir and they start brawling …. Now here comes Purazzo!!!! Purazzo joins the fight and we have a 3 way brawl in the interview area that has to be broken up by officials ….
Up next we get an in-ring segment with MLW tag team champions Johnny Gargano & Tomasso Ciampa …. Ciampa cuts a promo and says they are still the champions, but Johnny looks conflicted …. He STILL doesn’t like being partners with Ciampa …. Ciampa tells Johnny that he ‘told him so’, and all Johnny had to do was listen to him ….
Johnny starts to respond, but they are interrupted by War Machine …. War Machine say Ciampa & Johnny have barely escaped the last 2 times …. They want a 3rd match …. The North come out and says the people are tired of seeing War Machine get all the title shots …. The North have been screwed at every turn since this company was started …. Their opportunity is way overdue …. Out comes the Stampede Bulldogs followed by Redragon …. Redragon says their resume speaks for itself …. Ciampa tells them to work it out among themselves because the champs are out of here …. He tells Johnny to come on, and Johnny hesitates for a second and then leaves with Ciampa ….
IN THE BACK –
Matt Riddle is interviewed in the back …. Riddle is all chill when he talks about his plans in MLW, but he is interrupted by Uhaa Nation …. Uhaa says Riddle disrespected him last week and took a cheap shot …. Uhaa is royalty and will not be treated that way …. Riddle is all ‘Brooooo’ and then says if he wants another match Riddle has no problem with giving him one …. Uhaa says that he will force Riddle to bow to him ….
<center><p style="border:3px;border-style:solid;border-color:#FF0000;padding:1em;"> MATT RIDDLE vs. UHAA NATION
This is a more competitive match than last week’s, where Riddle KO’d Nation in under a minute with a knee strike …. Uhaa attacks the unprotected feet and ankles of Riddle, but Riddle fires back …. Riddle tries a German but Uhaa stomps the foot to break it …. Uhaa goes for the King’s Chariot (Blue Thunder Bomb) but Riddle counters into a huricanrana! FINAL FLASH KNOCKS UHAA ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR! Riddle follows Uhaa out, but doesn’t see that he has a chair in his hand …. UHAA SMASHES RIDDLE IN THE UNPROTECTED ANKLE WITH THE CHAIR! The ref immediately calls for the bell! ….
WINNER (via DQ): Matt Riddle ….</p></center>
POST MATCH: Uhaa continues the attack on the unprotected foot of Riddle with the chair …. He puts his ankle in one chair and then takes another chair to Pillman-ize the ankle! The ref finally backs Uhaa off, but Riddle is in bad shape as Uhaa stands tall ….
IN THE BACK –
RING OF VICTORY promo …. It will feature the return of the Queen of the Ring match as well as the Survival of the Fittest tournament …. The Survival of the Fittest tournament will begin next week, with the Final 4 taking place at RING OF VICTORY ….
NEXT WEEK:
Bobby Lashley vs. Shane Taylor War Machine vs. The North vs. Redragon vs. Stampede Bulldogs
It is almost time for our main event, but we get a surprise appearance from Gina Carano! The last time we saw Gina she was taken out by Xia Li …. Gina takes the mic and says that she saw Xia’s little video last week where Xia said Gina dishonored her and now she wants to hurt Gina …. Well, here she is ….
We get the smoky entrance of Tian Sha, and BOA and Mei Ying hang back while Xia Li heads straight for the ring …. She slides in and Gina immediately attacks with strikes …. Xia fights back and the two women brawl all over the ringside area and up the ramp near where Mei Ying is seated on her throne …. Carano gets the better of the exchange and takes Xia Li down for a moment, then turns her attention to Mei Ying! Ying stands up and Gina gets face to face with her, but Mei Ying blows the mysterious smoke in her face! This stuns Gina momentarily, allowing Xia Li to take Gina out with the Black Mass! Xia looks to Mei Ying as if asking what to do next …. Mei Ying says nothing, but Xia picks Gina up and tosses her off the stage!!!! Gina crashes through some tables down below, and trainers quickly come out to check on her while Tian Sha stands tall above her ….
<center><p style="border:3px;border-style:solid;border-color:#FF0000;padding:1em;"> MLW Title Fatal 4 Way Match: (Champion) KILLER KROSS w/ Scarlett vs. ADAM COLE vs. CHRIS JERICHO vs. ‘Switchblade’ JAY WHITE
This is the match that Kross wanted, so he could fight everyone! Kross takes control early, overpowering Cole and pushing him back into the corner and pummeling him …. Jericho comes back in to fight with Kross while White hangs back, then he comes in to get cheap shots on Cole …. White with a crossface on Cole, but Kross picks Jericho up and powerbombs him onto everyone! Kross and White brawl outside the ring, but Cole and Jericho team up to hit a double team powerbomb on Kross and put him through the announce table!!!! White hits the Blade Runner on Cole but Kross recovers in enough time to break it up by getting White in the Kross Jacket! Jericho with an enziguri, but Kross wont let go of the choke! Cole hits a superkick to the back of the head, but Kross still won’t let go! Jericho and Cole hit a superkick/ enziguri combo that finally forces Kross to let go, and White falls to the mat unconscious …. Kross gets hit with another superkick, THEN A 3RD! …. Kross is still on his feet, but Jericho finally takes him out with the Judas Effect that sends him all the way to the floor! Cole is behind Jericho waiting for him to turn around, but Jericho catches the superkick attempt and takes his legs out! WALLS OF JERICHO! ASK HIM! Cole is screaming ‘No!’ and he claws with his fingernails and gets to the ropes …. Both men collapse in exhaustion, but Jericho measures Cole for the Judas Effect …. But Cole catches him coming in and hits the Ushigoroshi! Cole to the 2nd rope … PANAMA SUNRISE (jumping Canadian Destroyer)!!!! 1 … 2 … Noooo! Jericho kicks out! Cole pulls down the knee pad …. JERICHO BLOCKS THE LAST SHOT AND GETS THE WALLS OF JERICHO! ASK HIM!!!! Kross out of nowhere KILLS Jericho with the Order 66 to the back of the head!!!! Superkick by Cole knocks Kross through the ropes to the floor! Jericho has nothing left at this point and manages to pull himself to his knees and stare down Cole …. In one last act of defiance Jericho flips Cole off, BUT COLE KILLS JERICHO WITH THE LAST SHOT!!!! Cole hooks the leg …. 1 … 2 … 3!!!! ….
WINNER (and new champion): Adam Cole ….</p></center>
