2005: A War for the Ages (WCW)

[Guest Crossface]

OK,some real opinions,some are obvious:

-JERICHO IS FREAKING GOD.

The way you present him is the way that flair was presented at the late 80's.The way he is controlling the division is great,altrough the lack of a top face just keeps you wondering when he was going to loose the tite.

-The tag division was random at the start,espically with Eddie/Konan,and Huricanne/Animal.

But later with pairs like AMW and The Unholy Alliance it got better.

Now,the CHAMPS are AUSTIN AND STEINER.WTF?

Damn.

-The Matt-Maria was kinda bad at the start,espically with a TRIP TO EUROPE.

-The Edge debut was suprising,and the feud was good,altrough after some time it got boring.but overall the target was achived-getting Hardy over.

-Punk and Cabana was allways good,as a tag team,with CM's face turn,and to the double turn,done geunisly and probably the highlight of the whole diary.

-Hogan comes back was bad.With Jericho beating him he should have got some credibility?

He actually lost it when he lost to Hogan-CLEANLY after beating Benoit a week before in a ladder match.

-Now i can obviously see that Benoit shouldve won the title at COTC,but instead Jericho will keep the title for another couple of months.

-The start was a mess.with a battle royal every show for a month,it was weird.and a Booker-Stiener feud?

-I like the hatred between Heyman and Bischoff,it really repressents the war between ECW and WCW.

-Christian is probably the most fun face around,from his debut.

-The Raven-Austin feud was a great feud,altrough the lack of matches.the Raven silent and disturbing promos was some kind of a counter to the in-your-face promos.I esspically liked the Raven being drove of a cliff,and the continuation in War Games.

-The CW division was really bad at the start.with Eddie as champion,and Rey getting the title to get him on TV (I CHOSED IT HAHAHAHA) was a way through the bad times.i liked how Kidman was shown as champion,as a one that could fight alone,but mostly used the flock.

-The stable wars was just bad.i dont know why i dont like it,but i just dont.

-ROH invasion is good.the Spanky-Ki feud was done at a great form,and of course,the 10 men elimination match with Eddie has to tolerate Punk.

Sorry for every misspelling,i truly suck.

WCW THUNDER

Wednesday , April 5th, 2006

<=:=><=:=>Intro and Pyro<=:=><=:=>

Meltzer: "Hello everyone and welcome to Thunder. It should be a great night tonight, as have two title matches, plus BOOKER T is in the house!"

Heenan: "Booker T is here tonight?!"

Meltzer: "But let's send it backstage, where Stacy Keibler and Austin Aries are standing by."

1. What does she see in him anyways?

Backstage, we see Stacy Keibler in a leather mini skirt and tight shirt with Austin Aries, who looks ready for action tonight.

Stacy: "Who in the hell does Alex Shelley think he is? He thinks that him and his little imitiation group, Generation Now, are better then us? Alex Shelley, let's get one thing straight. Your little "gang" is no more then you and two of your drinking buddies watching each others back. Generation Next? Generation Next is a group of 4 guys all dubbed the future of wrestling, managed by one of the top managers in the world today, not to mention, the best looking manager in the world, Me. And the gem of Generation Next, Austin Aries, is going to go out there tonight, and prove to you exactly who we are. If the best Generation Now can offer is You, Chris Sabin and Jimmy Jacobs...well, I think that alone speaks for itself."

Aries: "Alex Shelley, we've had wars in the past, and now it all comes to a head. After I beat you tonight, this little thing between us, it's over. I've got bigger fish to fry pal. Come one Stacy."

Aries grabs Stacy's hand and the two walk off camera, hand in hand.

2. Jimmy Jacobs vs Michael Shane

In yet another match pitting a generation next member vs a generation now member, this match got started in a hurry as Jacobs ran to the ring to get the match started. A great high speed contest as both men hit the ropes a number of times, both hitting arm drags in the early going and trying to one up each other. Shane slowed the match down by applying a hammerlock, but Jacobs rallied with the crowed behind him and countered with a hiptoss. Jacobs went for the contra code. Instead, he planted on the top turnbuckle and then back suplexed off the top turnbuckle. Shane went up top and connected on the elbow drop, but only got a two count. Jacobs fought to regain momentum, connection on a tilt-a-whirl head scissors and applying the camel clutch, but Shane got the to the ropes. The end saw Michael Shane duck a clothesline and go for the superkick, but Jacobs ducked it with a matrix like evasion, then kicked Shane in the stomach and delivered on the contra code for the 1-2-3 and a huge victory for Jacobs, as he celebrates in the ring, getting a small reaction from the crowd.

WINNER: Jimmy Jacobs

<M:86% C:52% O:69% Jimmy Jacobs gained overness from this match. >

3. Los Guerreros..reunited!

Backstage, Eddie and Chavo are hanging out in their locker room.

Eddie: "So holmes, big night eh? Got your first singles match back in WCW. How's your leg feeling?"

Chavo: "No pain whatsoever Eddie. Tonight, I'm going to continue where I left off, running through the competition here in WCW. Tonight, Sonny Siaki is my first victim. And Eddie, as much as we both like singles competitino, I think it'd be best if we got back to where we were before I got hurt, WCW Tag Team Champions!"

Eddie: "Chavito, That sounds great and all holmes, but what about Konnan dawg? I know he's on vacation now, but what about when he gets back? Surely he'll want in on the action too. But hey, family before friends right?"

Chavo: "Eddie, don't worry, I've already spoke with some people, and you don't have to worry about that."

Chavo whispers something in Eddie's ear so everyone at home and in the arena can't work hear.

Eddie: "Really? Honestly Holmes, I can't say I didn't see that one coming."

Eddie and Chavo began discussing tactics for Chavo's match against Siaki tonight.

Great technical wrestling in the early going as the match started with Shelley applying an armringer on Aries, but Aries quickly snapmared him over and applied a headlock. Shelley tried to shoot Aries into the ropes, but it didn't work, as Aries held on and took Shelley to the ground. Aries released the headlock and went with a hammerlock, but Shelley ran towards the ropes and threw Aries to the outside.

5. The typical "rematch clause" interview

Backstage, we see Miss Stacy standing by with Chris Harris and James Storm, America's Most Wanted.

Miss Stacy: "Aint it a cryin' shame that my boys lost their WCW Tag team titles two days ago on Nitro? Well guess what? I already talked to Mr. Bischoff, and we'll get our rematch next monday on Nitro. And Eric said that if Scott Steiner can't compete, Steve Austin will either have to find a new partner, fight by himself, or forfeit the tag team titles back to us! So don't worry, these two Country Boy's won't be without their belts for long. Look at them, don't they look incomplete without those tag team titles around their waist's? That' ok, because we will win our belts back, and AMW will walk out of Nitro as the tag team champions!"

<0:64%>

6. Who betta..den Kanyon?

On the tron, we see Kanyon. The screen says "Kanyon Cam" on it and the video looks amatureish.

Kanyon: "While my partner DDP is getting ready for his match, I thought it'd be a great time to hold the firrst ever episode of "WHO'S BETTA DEN KANYON!" Let's see what we find backstage."

Kanyon grabs the camera and starts walking around backstage. We see Jody Fleisch grabbing some bottled water.

Kanyon: "This guy definitely isn't better then Kanyon."

The cam now turns around, it's none other then Television champion Steven Richards. Richards is holding his belt while talking to Whipwreck and Lodi.

Kanyon: "Look at this guy, he walks around all high and mighty with that television title. But you know what? He can have all the belts in the world and he still wouldn't be better den kanyon!"

Kanyon turns around, and damn near hits Spanky with the camera.

Spanky: "Watch where your going."

Kanyon: "We have a fiesty one on our hands, This guy's not better den Kanyon though!"

Spanky: "Hey! I'm better then you! I'm better then everyone in this damn promotion. I'm the messiah of wrestling, don't you forget that."

Kanyon: "Messiah eh? That's real hard to believe coming from a guy who can't even grow facial hair."

Spanky: "I can so.. I just shave daily. Listen here Kanyon.. I.."

All of a sudden Shane Helms attacks Spanky from behind as Kanyon captures the footage. Helms takes Spanky to the ground and starts hammering on him with right hands as all Spanky can do is cover his face before Road agents pull Helms off Spanky. Helms struggles to get free, but is restrained by them as Spanky sits on the ground with a busted lip

Kanyon: "Now That, was definitely better den Kanyon!"

<0:71%>

7. Sonny Siaki vs Chavo Guerrero

As Siaki makes his way to the ring, he gets a great response from the crowd. Chavo out next and the crowd is all over him, glad to see he regained his heat in a hurry. The two stand toe to toe in the ring, talking trash to one another. Chavo slaps Siaki in the face and Siaki goes to work with right hands on Chavo, but Chavo quickly gains control of the match with a knee to the gut and a body slam.

WINNER: Chavo Guerrero

<M:91% C:79% O:85%>

8. UH OH...

Backstage, we see Mick Foley, pacing in his office. Scott Steiner is sitting at a table, cast on his elbow.

Steiner: "Listen Foley, I thought I was good to go. One of my doctors said I was cleared for full competition."

Foley: "You see Scott, that's the problem. One of your doctors, probably one of the quacks you paid off to say that. The problem is, you were involved in a highly physical matchup that YOU WEREN'T CLEARED FOR. I talked to WCW's doctors, they said that no way any sane doctor would clear you for a matchup of that caliber. Last week, I threw a rookie your way knowing full well you'd crush him. Then you go and lie to Eric Bischoff and tell him your medically cleared to return to the ring."

Steiner: "Foley.."

Foley: "No, Scott. No excuses. You put yourself, you put WCW at a liability because of your carelessness and selfishness to get back in the ring. And Eric Bischoff has adviced me to take some sort of action, since I've been the one dealing with you for the last few weeks. and he's right Scott. So as of this moment, I'm suspending you from WCW and barring you from any WCW event until further notice.

Steiner: "That's crap Foley. That's CRAP! That's the way things go around here huh? Scott does something bad, so you just send me home? You know what Foley, you don't have to suspend me, because I QUIT!"

Foley: "You can't quit Scott, because as of this moment, YOU'RE FIRED, you arrogant son of a bitch. I go and give you time to go home, relax, heal yourself, and you say your going to just walk out? Well SCREW YOU Scott Steiner, get the hell out of my building."

Steiner storms away pissed off at the altercation, with an angry Foley watching him leave the building

<0:95% Mick Foley gained overness from this segment. >

9. Diamond Dallas Page vs Colt Cabana©, US Title Match

DDP looks to be in top form and gets a good response from the crowd here tonight. Cabana's music hits and the crowd goes wild, they absolutely love this kid. Cabana does his usual antics before getting in the ring. Collar and elbow tieup and Cabana forces DDP into the corner. Clean break initiated by the ref, and they lock horn in the center of the ring again, DDP gains the upperhand and applies a sideheadlock. Cabana immediately shoots him into the ropes and goes for a hiptoss, but DDP blocks it and delivers a hip toss of his own to Cabana, and then an armdrag followed by an armbar.

10. SUCKAAAAH!!!

Backstage, we see Booker T with Mean Gene.

Mean Gene: "Booker T, this Monday you cost Whiskey Marc his chance at winning the world title.."

Booker: "Yo damn right I did Mean Gene. Whiskey Marc, did you actually think that after putting the Booka man through a table, I wouldn't get even? Well dawg, if that's what you thought, your damn wrong aren't cha? On Nitro, I cost your punk ass the one thing that you you've been bitching about for the last month, the WCW Heavyweight title.

11. The Amazing Red© vs Billy Kidman, Cruiserweight title match

SHOW RATING: 77%

Edited August 12, 2005 by Disengager

[ThroxXx]

Not a BAD thunder. Just nothing I can get into on the show.... good 77% tho.

Where can I get this Scenario? I would love to play a version of this.......

Thanks

[Guest Crossface]

Oh yeah,i would love an updated scenario,it'ls be great.

Anyway,the whole Steiner angle is intrested,but,is he really fired or you are doing the "Jericho suspended" again?

I espically liked the Guerreros angle,and i'm really hoping for a Chavo face turn.

The Punk injured angle is great,altrough he shouldnt be on nitro anyway,you shouldnt bring him to the show.

Tell me what you want fixed from this one, and I'll do it. I forgot all the things wrong with it, apart for Rick Steiner being in ECW.

As for Scott, unfortunately, I think I've written him off TV for good. His contract is coming to an end, he'll become a non-wrestler very soon, and theres just not a whole lot for him to do in this WCW. There will be more on this in the NODQ update.

[Guest Crossface]

No,i mean that you should take the diary's DATA and upload it,that's it.

[Hailtothechimp]

Sweet Thunder, I am totally digging the Generation Next vs. Generation Now feud, that is truely good stuff. Your tag team division is kinda just... there. Nothing really big has happened for the division since Sinister Creation vs. The New Road Warriors.

Jericho for a 1 year champ!

[ThroxXx]

thanks for the link. I downloaded it..........starting it as we speak. LoL...

Trying to hire 35 guys however is tough....got up to 25 ... and had to pull 10 out of my ass....in a figure of speech sorta way. LoL

Keep it up. Cant wait for Nitro

[Disengager]

Alright guys, I was going to try to get Nitro up, but there's been a change of plans.

Instead of leaving on Wednesday to to do some film work for CKY, I'll be leaving in about 3 hours to catch them tomorrow in Portland, then Monday in Vancouver, then Wednesday in Seattle, the Thursday in Spokane..then who knows really. I'm so damn psyched right now.. but also so rushed. I've got 45 minutes to pack starting about....now.

Updates coming when I get back.

[dlane0087]

take your time, you have more then earned it. by the way this is the greatest diary of all time (or at least of the ones i have read lol).

Edited August 22, 2005 by dlane0087

[Disengager]

I don't know what's going on with my diary. I'm back from my trip, but I just got an offer from my old company and took it, so my work load has like, tripled. I want to continue, but right now I just don't have the time. It's not dead though, just on hold for right now.

[Guest wcw]

Uh Oh, those could be famous last words. I really hope they arnt because really this is the best diary on the boards and much like others i come to this site simply to read this diary. Hopefully you take some time off and get back into doing more shows.

[ThroxXx]

well good for you. But dont quit on us. You got us ALL hooked on this. You are the best around right now. Dont dissapoint.

[Nelson]

Im not trying to suck up to you Im just going to state a fact. I've started my own diary (link on my sig) inspired from yours. I've been using your diary on how you do things as it my first and yours is the best, I'm trying for mine to be different I don't want to copy, but your diary is awesome and I applaud you on it.

[Disengager]

I'm possibly considering the idea of changing to a recap format, much like Alldawson's WWE2005. The way it is right now, it takes me around 3 hours to write a nitro, then another hour to book it in EWR, format it for the board and reread over it and make corrections. My real problem is, I don't like stopping when I start to work on a show. I get into a focused mood, and it's hard for me to get back into something. I prefer to write the whole show at once, rather then break it up. If a recapped format could make it easier and reduce the time, while still maintaining the same quality of the diary, then I could possibly go that route.

Starting Monday, I have to leave my house @ 6:30am for work and won't get home till around 5:30pm. Every other weekend, I'll have to crunch to finish layout on the newspaper I'm assistant editor for. Then on top of that, every other wednesday, I attend a town council meeting from 7:00 to 10:00pm and write a report on it. Some nights, I will get home at 5:30, other nights, I'll have meetings with our advertising clients and whatnot and need to either meet with them or design their ads. Simply put, my life is a mess right now, and as much as I love being a workaholic, it's been taking a toll on a my personal life. As of right now, I can barely find time to hang out with my friends, so to try to spend 4 hours writing a nitro, I just don't see it happening. And you guys saw how dedicated I was when I was updating all the time. I had plan for the diary, and still do. I have storylines thought up all the way through october 2006 in game time. Just right now, I need to figure out and reassese my personal life.

And Pault, thanks for the words. I didn't know back when I started this how big/popular it would get. You guys saw my first few shows, utter garbage in my opinion. I like writing storylines and developing characters, but writing matches was also becoming increasingly difficult. I always tried to one up my last PPV, and that's damn hard. But yeah, it's not dead, just on temporary rest.

[Guest Crossface]

Take a break if you have to,but yeah,you could change the format,i won't mind.

WCW Monday Night Nitro

Monday, April 10th, 2006

<=:=><=:=>Intro and Pyro<=:=><=:=>

Meltzer: "Good evening everyone and welcome to Nitro. What a magnificent night it should be, and get this Coach, we have a WEDDING! Here Tonight!"

Coach: "Well Meltzer, you know how those usually turn out, someone's going to be heartbroken here tonight!"

Meltzer: "Cut it out, it should be great."

GLASS SHATTERS! and out comes Steve Austin to a thunderous ovation. Austin comes out carrying both of the tag team titles. He lays them on the mat before posing on all four corners and grabbing a microphone.

Austin: "It seems as though I've been put in a position that quite honestly, Stone Cold doesn't like. Last week, that son bitch Steiner asked me to be his tag team partner and gave me his word that he was good to go. Well, first off, that sorry bastard lied to Stone Cold, he was not good to go. Secondly, I single handedly won these belts that quite frankly, I don't give a damn about. Stone Cold Steve Austin has never wanted, nor needed a tag team partner in his career. As far as I'm concerned, America's Most Wanted or whatever the hell their names are can come down to this ring and take their titles because because these belts are NOTHING. They're crap, They're worthless hunks of gold. Both of these belts combine do not equal the prestige, or the value the World Title has to Stone Cold. You wanna talk about championships, well hell, the only title Steve Austin cares about is the one around Chris Jericho's little waist. So AMW, You can take these little belts and shove them up your.."

I'M BACK...AND BETTER THEN EVER! hits and the boss comes out to a mixed reaction. Bischoff has a concerned look on his face as he walks down the ramp, gets in the ring, and grabs a microphone.

Bischoff: "Now Steve, hold on a minute. I want you to reconsider what you just said. You're right Stone Cold, these belts are not the WCW Heavyweight Title. However, they are the tag team titles, and I'm not going to just let one of my champions denounce his title and forfeit it. Steve, let me ask you a question, Are you a quitter?"

Austin: "What the hell kind of a question is that Bischoff, Stone Cold Steve Austin has never backed down from a fight. But if you couldn't tell, my tag team partner got fired by your commissioner, jackass."

Bischoff: "Easy Steve. To every problem there is a solution, and Eric Bischoff is the type of guy to find that solution. Now, I made a decision before the show tonight, and I decided that since your partner was fired, that's unfair to you, and to the fans. Why should you just give up a belt that you single handedly won, just because your partner screwed up? That is why, Steve Austin, I'm going to let you choose any WCW Superstar to be your partner as one half of the tag team champions."

Austin: "Let me get this straight. You, Eric Bischoff, are going to let me choose any one of the jackasses in the back to be my partner in defending these titles? Is that correct?"

Bischoff: "Yes Steve, that is right."

Austin: "hmm, let me think for a second. Which one of the jackasses in the back should I choose to be my tag team partner? Booker T (crowd cheers), nah, Christian (crowd cheers louder), nah, he's just a creepy little bastard. Ah, I got it Eric. My new partner is...CHRIS JERICHO!"

Bischoff: "Whoa whoa whoa whoa, Austin, Austin, I want you to reconsider your decision. I.."

Austin: "You said anyone in the back right Eric? I even asked you if that was right you silly bastard."

Bischoff: "Yeah but..."

BREAK THE WALLS DOWN!! Hits and out comes Chris Jericho, with an angry look on his face as he holds the world title on his shoulder. He takes off his sunglasses and stands on the top of the ramp, mic in hand.

Jericho: "You want to play games Austin? You think this is some way to get in the head of Chris Jericho? I'm not stupid Austin, I know exactly what you're doing. And you know what? I'll be glad to be your partner, I'll defend those tag titles with you tonight, hell, I'll defend them with you any night. You know why? There's an old saying, keep your friends close, and your enemies closer. Austin, I know exactly why you want to be my partner. There's another old saying, and this one applies to you Austin. If you can't beat em, Join em! You can't beat me Austin and you know it. That's why you'd rather have me as a partner then as an opponent. And As one half of the tag team champions, I declare that we will win tonight, and every other night for that matter.  You know why? Because..."

Austin: "All I asked for was a partner, not a speech too, you jackass. Don't think for one second that I can't beat you Jericho, because we both know you never pinned Steve Austin without circumstances surrounding it. And don't think that just because your my partner, I won't still beat you, because I will Jericho. You're on borrowed time, and that's the bottom line, because Stone Cold Said SO!"

Austin's music hits and Jericho still appears to be a little angry over the situation. Austin picks up one of the tag team titles and throws it at Jericho, but it comes up about 20 feet short. Austin grabs the other title and gives Eric Bischoff a glance before posing with it on the turnbuckle. We've already got deception in the ranks of the tag team champions!

Backstage, we see Rey Mysterio, Juvi, and Psychosis, members of the Spanish Uprising, hanging out backstage. They appear to be in a bad mood as they're speaking in spanish amongst themselves. Amazing Red walks up and all three of them give him the cold shoulder.

Red: "Hey guys, what's up."

All three members don't really say much, just giving off grunts and sighs.

Red: "Listen Rey, I wanted to thank you man. Thanks for helping me out on Thunder. And thank you for helping me win the cruiserweight title last week. You were right bro, working as a team was a good idea."

Rey: "Listen Red, I'm really glad you're happy you won the cruiserweight title, but..nevermind"

Red: "What Rey? is there something you want to say to me?"

Rey: "No amigo, nothing at all."

Red: "Guy's I just wanted to let you know, I have to get going. I have a party to go to later tonight. I would invite you, but you know.. it's kind of private. You understand? Later amigos!"

Red goes walking off, with the three members of Spanish Uprising looking at one another and then looking at Red, as if they're unhappy.

CAN YOU DIG IT, SUCKA? Hit's and out comes Booker T to a great response here tonight. Book poses as his pyro goes off before making his way down to the ring and grabbing a microphone.

Booker: "Three weeks ago, The Booka Man got mugged, when that punk ass bitch Whiskey Marc put me through a table, giving me a concussion. But the Bookaman got revenge last monday, when I cost his sorry ass the WCW Heavyweight title. Well Marc, I heard for the last week, you've been sulking in the back, crying like a little bitch and telling everyone you want a piece of the Bookaman. So if you want some..Come get some!"

Whiskey Marc's music hits and the derranged hardcore psychopath makes his way out to the entrance ramp, Steel chain in hand as the crowd boo's. He stands atop the ramp.

Marc: "They say, I'm the most dangerous wrestler in the world when I step through those ropes. They say my numerous fighting styles and high tolerance of pain makes me unstoppable. Booker T, do you truly know what my creditentials are? I've done everything. I've wrestled on every continent, and I know every style of wrestling imagineable. British, Japanese, American, Lucha Libre, death match, strong style, shoot fighting, Karate, Boxing, you name it, I've done it. And.."

Booker: "The Bookaman only knows one style, Whooping ass! I don't care what you know, but if your as skilled as you say you are, then come down here and Bring it!"

Marc: "This is exactly what I'm sick of. I'm sick of the blatant disrespect from everyone in this company. I am sick and I am tired of people looking down on me just because I'm not your typical professional wrestler. I didn't make my name in ECW or WCW, or any other promotion in america for that matter. I made a name for myself everywhere else. And Booker, I'm going to make you and everyone else in this promotion why I should be the number one contender for the heavyweight title. I'm challenging you to a STREET FIGHT at Spring Stampede. No rules, anything goes, what do you say Booker?"

Booker: "A street fight uh? Well Marc, your on. I suppose now your going to talk about the thing you're going to do to me with that chain you're holding. Well sucka, go ahead, because if it's a street fight you want, it's a street fight you're going to get. I lived my life on the streets son, I know my way around a fight. If you have to resort to weapons to beat me, then so be it, but dawg, don't think for one second that I won't have a problem bustin yo head open when I use that very chain against you. Now can you dig that, SUCKAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Book's music hits and him and Whiskey Marc yell at one another, talking trash as we go to commercial break.

Backheel trip by Tajiri and he goes to work on the leg with a single legged crab on Ki.

We come back, and Colt Cabana's music hits and the US Champ comes out to a great ovation. It looks like he's all business tonight, as he puts all joking aside and hits the ring. Cabana grabs a microphone.

Cabana: "Last week, me and my partner Christian were scheduled to take on Eddie Guerrero and CM Punk. Well Punker decided to cop out and fake an injury, because let's face it, he's simply too scared to face Colt Cabana. I've issued the challenge Punk, I'll put the belt on the line, hell, I'll put my career on the line, whatever match, whenever you want. You're running scared Punk, you've unleashed a meanstreak you've never seen before in Colt Cabana, and that scares you. So Mr. CM Punk, the challenge has been laid out, get your ass out here and face me like a man. No more cheap attacks, no run ins, nothing. Punk, me and you, one on one!"

The crowd goes wild at the idea of Punk vs Cabana tonight. CM's music comes out, and Punk comes out hobbling on two crutches with his leg heavily wrapped. The crowd boo's heavily as he has a mic in hand.

CM: "That's just what you'd like huh Cabana? You'd like me to come down there, high ankle sprain and all and fight you when I'm not at the top of my game. Well forget it pal, it's not happening tonight, or any other night for that matter. I'm NOT going to face you Cabana, EVER. I have nothing left to prove. Your belt, it means NOTHING. It's just a figurehead. Just like Osama Bin Laden is to Al Quaeda, a figurehead. It serves no real importance to those who know. You can fool the masses and say your the US Champion, but when it comes down to it, all that belt is is a hunk of leather with a piece of gold attached to it. But hey, since you're so determined and willing to fight tonight, I know a guy who would love to face you Cabana. I know a guy, who could actually do something with that belt Cabana. I mean, hey, Chicks dig gold right? And Stacy Keibler is the biggest golddigger of all isn't she, Aries?"

Generation Next's music hits and out comes Austin Aries. He gives kind of a disgusted look to CM Punk as if he's offended by his comments, but heads down to the ring, and it looks like we're going to have an impromptu match as Colt Cabana is rarin' to go in the ring. A referee runs down to the ring and calls for the bell, and we have a match on our hands.

Meltzer: "What a match that was, but you have to wonder when CM Punk is going to finally step in the ring with Cabana.

Coach: "You heard the man, he doesn't need to fight Cabana, he has nothing left to prove."

Meltzer: "Nothing left to prove? My ass. CM Punk has a lot to prove in my book."

William Regal's music hits and the out comes the british veteran in a very hurried fashion as he makes his way to the ring in suite and tie. He grabs a microphone.

Regal: "Last week, I was attacked by two miserable men inside of a dark room. Perhaps I didn't make the best judgement going into a dark room, but I damn well know that the two men who attacked me have something to do with the kidnapping of Eugene. And I also know for a bloody fact that Sean O'Haire has something to do with whole situation. So O'Haire, get out here NOW sunshine, because I have some questions to ask you. You know where Eugene is, and I damn well want some answers!"

A video feed comes up on the tron. It's a very dark and grainy video. It looks as if it's a dimly lighted cellar or room or something like that. It is only lighted by one hanging lightbulb. There is a figure next to a wall, hands above their head. It's Eugene! It looks like Eugene is handcuffed or bound to the wall.

Eugene: "MR REGAL? SOMEONE? HELPPPPP ME!!!!" HEELLLLLLPPPPP"

A hush has fallen over the crowd and Regal is shocked and saddened as he can't do anything to help Eugene. All of a sudden, the lightbulb in the room goes out, and Eugene begans screaming in pain. The screaming stops, and nothing can be heard or seen as the video is pure darkness. The crowd is simply silenced and Regal is almost in tears in the ring in what could be one of the most sadistic, sickening things we've ever seen on Monday Nitro as we go to commercial break.
