PWA Violation: November 13, 2008

Hot Tag Team Action!

Sabin Wants Action!

"Southside" by Moby hits, and Chris Sabin makes his way down to the ring to a decent sized pop from the fans in attendance. He walks with a purpose, grabbing a microphone and is all business as he steps in the ring, disgust on his face.

Sabin: Alex Shelley, tonight, you and I meet face to face for the first time since you turned your back on me. I considered you a friend, and you considered me a stepping stone. But that's okay, because I've been crapped on before, but tonight, I plan on rectifying this by kicking your ass. But I am out here because you know who my partner is tonight in our tag team match, but you've got a surprise partner that supposedly with help your victory be guaranteed. Well, bring your partner out here, and lets get this show on the road right now.

Shelley doesn't come out, however, as "Live for the Moment" hits, and Matt Hardy makes his way to the top of the ramp and applauds Sabin.

Hardy: Good job, Chris! You actually got your point across with at least an ounce of charisma. But your wait doesn't have to go on and on. I am out here to let you know two things. The first thing, is that Alex hasn't arrived to the arena yet, but he's on his way, and he's ready to kick your ass. The second thing, is that he gave me a call, and asked me to show up here tonight to be his partner, so here I am in the flesh. And tonight, myself and the The Diamond will kick your ass and that burrito eating punk, Chavo Guerrero all the way back to the bottom of the totem pole, buddy.

Sabin: You've got a big mouth, Hardy. How about you come down here and let me knock your vocal chords out.

Hardy: You're feisty, aren't you? But I don't have to bicker with you. What the hell have you done? I beat Brock Lesnar while you're busy jobbing to Taka and Tajiri. I am a superstar, and you're trash. And tonight, Version One and the the Technical Messiah will silence your non charismatic ass once and for all and ship you back to Hell, Michigan. And that is a promise you can count on.

The Demented One Speaks

Backstage, Teddy Hart is sitting in his locker room with a dimly lit light swinging over his head as he leans up against the wall, sitting on the floor with his newly won Crown Title in his hands. He looks up at the camera with a demented smile.

Hart: I promised the world that I'd get my title back. Nobody had faith in me. Nobody except Shane McMahon. And that's why I went to him, and thanked him. I thanked him for everything he's done for me since I've been here in PWA and asked him to help me take back what was rightfully mine. Harry, I told you I was the better man, and at Champion's Showcase, I proved it. And just for the record, you DON'T have a rematch. I am officially through with you. But to anyone who wants some... come get some. I AM THE BEST ***DAMN WRESTLER IN THE BUSINESS TODAY!! THIS TITLE IS THE MOST PRESTIGUOUS BELT IN THE BUSINESS TODAY!!! AND DAMNIT, I AM GOING TO PROVE IT TO EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU JACKOFFS IN THE CROWD!!!

He chuckles to himself as the crowd boos upon insult.

Hart: ..... but not tonight. This crap state is sucking the passion I have for this business out of me, so I am getting the hell out of Maryland, and taking my Crown Title with me. Oh yeah, and Shane... thanks, man. I appreciate it.

Joy: I am standing by with DDP, and DDP, you are here tonight, for what reason?

In a short period of time, I've taken Randy Orton and changed him. He's seen the ways of what made me a succeesful wrestler and man in life.

The US Champ Goes Hardcore

"How Soon Is Now" by The Smiths hits, and the United States Champion, Jamie Noble makes his way down to the ring to a tremendous ovation, and is dressed for combat. He slides in the ring, grabs a mic and holds up the title to the fans in attendance before beginning his rant.

Noble: I've been in the back, and I've been thinkin. Did I make a mistake in accepting Tom Howard's Gutcheck challenge? I mean, I'm the United States Champion. Not only am I above Howard as far as talent is concerned, but I am a wrestler, not a brawler. But then I thought about it some more and said to myself, "By God, Jamie! This is your chance to raise your stocks even more! This is Howard's territory and you got the chance to embarass him." So, that's exactly what I'm gonna do. Tom Howard, get yourself down here boy!

"Saint Anger" by Metallica hits, and Tom Howard runs to the ring to begin the match, carrying a trashcan full of weapons.

Hardcore Gutcheck Challenge

Jamie Noble v Tom Howard

Hardcore to the fullest, as Noble went away from his wrestling game, and hung in there with Howard, nailing him with anything that was near him. A chair, singapore cane, and trashcan all came into play. Noble went for the Tiger Bomb to Howard, but was backdropped through the trashcan and Howard took control of the match. He took off his boot, and nailed Noble in the face with it. He took off his belt and began whipping Noble like a dog, but out of nowhere, his brother Bob slid in the ring with a lead pipe. Howard turned around and got nailed by his brother in the head. He spun back around into a small package from Noble who picked up the victory. Afterwards, Noble slid out of the ring and celebrated as Tom Howard looked on from the ring in shock as his brother laughed in the audience.

((COMMERCIAL BREAK))

Taking The Gold Back

Backstage, Carlito is standing by in the interview area. He has an apple in his hand, looks at it and then smiles at the camera.

Carlito: Jamie Noble, Carlito has been waiting for a long time for his rematch. I am the rightful US Champion, and at Collision Course, it was supposed to be MY night to shine. But Shane McMahon made it a Four Way with the International Title on the line as well, and the winner is the Unified Champion. Well, there may be two other guys in the ring, but I will be the one man who walks out as the US and International Champion. You may be able to beat Tom Howard, but face it, Noble. He's no Carlito. You're only one Lungblower away from that title being removed from around your waist. And that.... that's cool.

He takes a bite of the apple and spits it into the camera as we fade back to ringside.

Tag Team Match

Chavo Guerrero & Chris Sabin v Alex Shelley & Matt Hardy

Fast paced tag team match which say Sabin and Shelley early on disappear to ringside brawling as Guerrero and Hardy fought inside the ring. Hardy nailed Guerrero with the Side Effect early on, but the count was broken up by Sabin, but he was thrown back out of the ring by Hardy. The referee went to ringside to restore order with Sabin and Shelley, but as he did, Hardy made it a point to kick Guerrero between the legs. Eventually, both men made a tag to their partners, and Sabin and Shelley locked up in the ring, and Sabin was cheap shotted by Shelley. The referee reprimanded him, before Hardy got a tag. He and Sabin went head to head, but multiple Cradle Shock attempts frusterated him and he left to ringside. Sabin climbed to the top rope and hit a moonsault to the floor and proceeded to pound his face in. He slid back in the ring, and seconds later, the referee completed his 10 count, effectively costing Shelley and Hardy the win. Afterwards, Hardy got up as Shelley yelled at him, and he backed up the ramp yelling "I beat Brock Lesnar! I don't care about this!" Back in the ring, Guerrero lifted up Shelley and dropped him with the Gory Bomb, and Sabin climbed to the drop and hit an elbow drop, leaving Shelley out in the middle of the ring.

PWA Monday Night Fight: November 17, 2008

The show opens with Josh Matthews and brand new color commentator, Mark Madden at ringside hyping tonight's big main event, Austin Aries against Shane McMahon, Terrance Richards and Phil Brooks as well as an In Ring Confrontation between the PWA Champion, Edge and The Rock in which neither man can lay a hand on one another. However, we're cut off by...

Harry Wants A Change

... “Follow Me” by Breaking Benjamin hits, and Harry Smith comes down to the ring, bandaged forehead and all as the fans give him a standing ovation per usual. He circles the ring, and grabs a mic before sliding in and taking his stance in the middle of the ring, rant ready to be spewed.

Smith: So Shane-O-Mac decided to prove that he is indeed the biggest damn asshole walking the face of the planet. And I've got to admit, that because of it, I look... well, to be honest, I look like a jackass. I mean, I pretty much let it all happen. I could have stopped him, because after the “accidental” attack, I couldn't trust him and I didn't trust him last Wednesday either. But Shane, make no mistake about it. You'll pay. A wise man once said to me when I was just breaking into the business, “Harry, never trust a McMahon. They're all scum, and eventually, you'll get screwed over.” That man was my uncle Bret, and damn is he wasn't telling me the truth.

The fans break out in a “HARRY” chant, and he looks at them and nods his head in approval.

Smith: I appreciate the ovation. Honestly, I do. But tonight, it's about me getting my chance to kick Shane McMahon's ass. Shane, I saw what you did to Austin Aries. You basically booked his career to be murdered. Basically, the bottom line is that you've got one chance to rectify this situation tonight. I'll do anything to get my hands around your throat, but if you don't add me to that match, Austin's career won't be the only thing murdered. It'll be you.

He's cut off as “Here Comes The Money” by Treach hits, and Shane McMahon walks out to the top of the ramp. Harry immediately begins to exit through the ropes, but he's halted.

McMahon: Calm down there, Harry. You might want to stay in the ring, because I was talking to Jenna Copeland, Edge's wife. You know, she's a fine attorney, because she pulled up this little thing called a restraining order which reads that if you, Harry Smith, come within 25 feet of me outside of a sanctioned match, you will not only be arrested, but fired as well.

Smith: You son of a bitch.

McMahon: A son of a bitch I may be, but I am a smart son of a bitch. You see, I knew you'd be out here seeking blood, so I drew up these files to protect my investment, and that investment is MY ass. But I am not only a smart son of a bitch, I am a fair son of a bitch too. I'll give you the opportunity to step in the ring with me, so I WILL be adding you into that match tonight. However, you'll have no choice but to face my personal bodyguard, Terrance Richards at Collision Course.

Smith: I don't give a damn. I'll kick your ass, snap you over my knee like a twig and then shove whatever is left of you up his ass at Collision Course. I'm sure you've been up there before anyway.

McMahon: Funny. But it won't be fun and games when you find out that if you lose the match, then you'll be fired anyway because your job is on the line and I will be the special guest referee. So what do you have to say about that now? Gonna open your mouth again?

Smith: Shane, you are scum. But I accept the challenge nonetheless. You'll be impartial, I know you will. And on paper, I have absolutely no chance in hell of overcoming you and him together. But there's a way, and I'll find that way. Trust me on that.

McMahon: Be that as it may, I want to let you know that this could have been avoided.

Smith: You're right, it could have been. Had you continued to be a suit and stay behind your little desk, your ass wouldn't be in danger of having my foot permanently imprinted in it.

McMahon: No, you see, it could have been avoided had you given me a simple; “Thank you”. I mean, it's because of me that you are where you are today. Without me, you'd still be wrestling your piece of crap best friend TJ Wilson in that broken down s***hole in Calgary. What's it called? Stampede Wrestling? It's because of me that Harry Smith is a household name. I gave you the platform, and gave you the opportunity. And what did I get in return from you? Not a goddamn thing. Not even a pat on the back, a phone call, a thank you. I got absolutely nothing from you, and I realized that you were just going to continue to get higher and higher on the ladder of success, maybe even take the World Title and it'd all be because I allowed you to get there. And if you haven't thanked me for where you are NOW, imagine if you were the World Champion. I wouldn't and won't allow it. And then my realization was complete when out of the blue, I got a phone call from your cousin, Teddy, thanking me for not only granting his rematch clause, but for allowing him to wrestle for him through all that's gone on. I snapped. That's all I wanted from you, Harry. But now, you're going to be the one snapped because I will make sure that you pay and pay dearly for being the selfish son of a bitch that you are you ungrateful little bastard!

Smith: Are you blind, McMahon? You may have given me the platform to perform on, but who was the one that gained the fan's interest? I did. Who's the one who won the Crown Title and didn't take any time off for you? I did. I have done EVERYTHING in PWA and everything that I've done has been not only for me, but for YOU. And you want a THANK YOU?! You can go straight to hell with what you want. You can bet your ass McMahon that if you're across the ring from me tonight, you won't be walking out on your own will. I guarantee that.

Smith throws down the mic as “Follow Me” hits once again. The two men have an intense staredown as we fade to the match graphic for one of tonight's featured matches, Chris Jericho v. Brian Kendrick. Madden and Matthews hype the match a bit as we fade off to commercial.

(Commercial Break)

Singles Match

Shelton Benjamin v Carlito

Action packed match between these two challengers for the United States and International Championship. Carlito was dominated by Benjamin in the early going before Shelton missed a flying clothesline from the top rope. Carlito quickly picked up the scraps, nailing a DDT and hitting an elbow drop from the top rope. Shelton tried to mount a comeback but a botched suplex attempt enabled Carlito to land the Lungblower, pinning Shelton for the win.

Carlito defeats Shelton Benjamin by pinfall at 10:49 (65.2% - 77.6% - 69.5%)

Backstage, Christopher Daniels and Jamie Noble were shown via split screen, overlooking the contest. Ironically, each man looked at their title and chuckled to themselves. We cut, and got a recap of the current rivalry between Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley that has been brewing on Violation, and it's noted that the Alex Shelley and Matt Hardy will go one on one this Thursday, despite both men being hated by the crowd.

(Commercial Break)

Screw The Sympathy

“Downfall” by Trust Company hits and Joey Mercury comes down to the ring to a decent pop from the fans holding both tag team titles, however, his partner is absent from his side. He hops in the ring, grabs a mic and looks at the crowd.

Mercury: Now as most of you may have heard, my tag team partner and friend, Johnny Nitro is currently out on injury. At Champion's Showcase, he suffered 2 broken rips and a bruised sternum. He'll be out for a couple of weeks, which means that at Collision Course, we won't be able to defend these titles. A lot of you fans have sent your best wishes and get well cards to him in the past couple of days, and a message from him; He thanks you all very, very much. A lot of people have been calling him the next Shawn Michaels to my Marty Jannetty. Well, we're not ready to break up yet, but he thanks you all for that compliment. There's still fuel left in our tank, and --

“How Soon Is Now” by The Smiths hits, and Scott Borders comes down to the ring with Mickie James at his side. He steps in the ring, dressed to compete, and grabs a mic from ringside. Mercury circles him, obviously upset at the interruption, but Borders could care less and steps directly in Mercury's face.

Borders: The sob story... I've had it up to “here” with it already. Face facts, kid. Nobody gives a DAMN about your sorry ass tag team partner, and most of all, I don't give a damn about your sorry ass tag team partner. He took a shot to the chest, and now it's caved in. You gonna shed some tears or what? I feel like I'm watching a soap opera out here with all this sentimental crap.

Mercury eyeballs Borders as the fans begin chanting “Asshole” in his direction.

Mercury: I think there's about 11,000 people calling you an asshole, Scotty.

Borders: Hey Mickie, look. We've got a wise guy on our hands. You want to run that big mouth of yours, or is your wannabe Shawn Michaels tag team partner too much of a loss that you can't fight in a singles match. I'm out here to kick somebody's ass, and I want that somebody to be you, Joey Crybaby. What do you say?

Borders doesn't have to wait for an answer as Mercury nails him with a right hand, knocking him down. Mickie rushes to her knees to tend to Scott, but Joey boots her in the ass, sending her flying through the ropes and to the floor below as referee Nick Patrick runs down to the ring, and the bell rings.

Singles Match

Joey Mercury v Scott Borders

Mercury began the match, dominating from his attack prior to the bell, and hit Borders with a Snapshot early on, but the impact sent him out of the ring. Mickie tended to Borders, wiping his face down by rubbing it in her cleavage, and Mercury dove over the top rope, but landed on Mickie. Borders shoved him into the stairs and slammed his head on to them a couple of times before rolling him back in the ring, confidant in his control. To finish, Borders hit a picture perfect sitting powerbomb before scaling the top rope and hitting the Money Shot to pick up the victory. After the match, Mickie slid in the ring and hit Mercury with the standing Tornado DDT and kicked Mercury repeatedly as Borders smiled. “Rollin” by Limp Bizkit hit and The Undertaker ran down towards the ring. Mickie and Scott caught him nearing the ring and hopped out the other side and ran through the crowd as Undertaker kept his pursuit.

Scott Borders defeats Joey Mercury by pinfall at 8:23 (50.6% - 70.6% - 53.6%)

Cliche: The Champ Is Here

Backstage, Edge and Jenna Copeland entered the arena, with Jenna holding the PWA World Title for him. Edge pulls off his sunglasses and they walk briskly through the hallways directly to their private dressing room. He holds the door open for her and they both enter, and slam the door shut behind them as the Madden and Matthews hype the In Ring Confrontation between he and The Rock later on tonight.

(Commercial Break)

Brock On Color Commentary

“Halo” by Soil hits, and Brock Lesnar makes his way down towards the announcers table to a roaring ovation from the fans in attendance. He climbs on top of the table and raises his arms in the air, smiling at the fans as they shout his name. He grabs the headset and puts it on as Madden and Matthews welcome him to the table.

Singles Match

Chris Jericho v. Brian Kendrick

Kendrick was first to attack following a handshake, first offered by Jericho. He hit a huge backdrop to Jericho in the middle of the ring and went for a standing moonsault which only got him a two count. His dominance continued until coming off the top rope with a double axe handle, only to be dropkicked by Jericho. The veteran picked up Kendrick and hit his classic double Powerbomb in the middle of the ring. He waited for Kendrick to get to his feet, and hit the bulldog followed by the Lionsault. Jericho pulled Kendrick in the middle of the ring and went for the Liontamer, but Kendrick wiggled free. He got up and went for a short arm clothesline, but Jericho ducked it and dropkicked Kendrick's knee. He locked on the Liontamer, and this time, Kendrick tapped out.

Chris Jericho defeats Brian Kendrick by submission at 4:57 (70.3% - 83.6% - 75.3%)

After the match, Brock Lesnar got in the ring as Jericho was celebrating. He extended his hand and Jericho shook it as Lesnar inaudibly mouthed “I'll see you at Collision Course”. Jericho patted him on the back and took his leave as Lesnar helped Kendrick to his feet and gave him the pat of respect as we faded to the back.

(Commercial Break)

Good Luck Wishes

Backstage, Harry Smith and Austin Aries are in the corridor walking when Jamie Noble appears.

Noble: Hey guys, what's up?

Aries: Not much man, just preparing for this damn Handicap Match tonight. Can you believe McMahon?

Noble: Yeah, I know. That sucks. If you guys need any help out there, just let me know. I'll be down there in a second.

Smith: We appreciate it, Jamie, but I think we're gonna have to do this one on our own. Plus, I don't wanna get you involved in this mess.

Aries: Thanks for the offer though.

Noble: No problem. Good luck out though, and be careful.

Becoming A Changed Man

Back in the arena, “Remedy” by Cold hits and everyone's favorite motivational speaker, DDP makes his way down to the ring to massive chants of “DDP!”. He slides in the ring and does his signature “self high five” to the crowd before grabbing a mic.

DDP: What's up, everybody?! Now I know you all have been anticipating his return, and trust me, I've been anticipating bringing him out here this evening. Now, for the past few weeks, Randy Orton and I have been getting him in the right frame of mind. In case you haven't realized it, he is a really talented kid, and his future is bright. Together, we've trained more mentally than physically. We've done Yoga, we've done meditation and we've got him to become a new man. Ladies and Gentlemen, I can't keep you waiting... Here he is, the NEW Randy Orton!

“This Fire Burns” hits and Randy Orton comes out to the top of the stage, wearing a black suit and gold tie. He throws his arms in the air as his new pyro shoots off behind him. He adjusts his tie and walks down to the ring, no longer with a cocky swagger, but with confidence. DDP holds the ropes open for him and they hug and shake hands. DDP hands Orton the mic, and he then holds up Orton's arm. The girls hoot and holler as usual, as the males in crowd are more reserved.

Orton: If the production truck could do me a favor and roll the footage I gave you earlier, I'd appreciate it. I want to show you what I had become, and what I am now.

The Titantron boots up, and footage of Orton's losses at Vendetta and the October 28th Edition of Fight are shown as Orton looks on in the ring, shaking his head, disappointed. His losses to Shelton Benjamin, Harry Smith and others on his losing streak. The tape ends, and we're brought back to the ring where Orton is leaning in the corner, still shaking his head in disgust.

Orton: It's pathetic what I had become. But it all started with one man, and that's Rob Van Dam. You see, before him, I hadn't lost my confidence. When he beat me in less than ten minutes on pay per view, I was struggling. But thanks to Chris Jericho calling Page, and him helping me with my problems, I truly am a new man. And my first act back here in the PWA is to make a challenge for Collision Course against the man who was the root of all my problems, and that man is none other than The Whole F'n Show, Rob Van Dam!

Almost on cue, “Walk” by Pantera hits, and Rob Van Dam makes his way to the top of the ramp, followed by The Coach, as always. Coach hands him a mic, and the crowd boos before he can even speak.

RVD: SHUT YOUR DAMN MOUTHS!!

Of course, this draws more jeers.

RVD: So you're challenging me to a match, Randy Orton? Dude, what the hell makes you think you're even in my league anyway? Because you stretched by candlelight with some ass who only won the World Title because he was best friends with the booker? I've beaten your ass more than once, dude.

Orton: Yeah, I want a shot at you. It makes sense that you'd try and get out of it. I mean, you're all mouth right now, but --

RVD: But nothing, Orton.

Orton: Okay, lets make this simple. Call it bribery, but I figured that you'd deny my challenge before I came out here, so I decided to go snooping. And in your bags, I found something. I think you know what. So save yourself the trouble, and give me the match. I'm going to prove to you and to the world that I am a new man and that you ain't got a damn thing on me.

Sweating bullets, knowing what's in the bag, Van Dam looks at Coach who is frantic. He turns back towards Orton and stomps his foot.

RVD: Alright, dude. You've got the match. But lemme tell you something Orton. Nobody likes watching you get your ass kicked than Rob Van Dam, but at Collision Course, I'll be the one kicking it all over again.

Orton: Trust me, Rob. Everything you just said won't be seen, because it'll be me with my arm raised in victory.

Orton throws down the mic and throws up his signature pose -- (\_o__/) -- as Van Dam and Coach fume at the top of the ramp. DDP stands behind Orton, rubbing his shoulders as we fade to “This Fire Burns”.

(Commercial Break)

The People's Champ Arrives

Elsewhere in the arena, The Rock is shown walking through the hallways, obviously having just arrived. He signs a couple of autographs of perfectly positioned fans before going on his jolly way as Madden and Matthews once again hype tonight's In Ring Confrontation between Edge and The Rock.

Tag Team Match

The Force v. Team Extreme

Hard hitting match, but Doring was visibly off of his game, and easily fell prey to the power of Bobby Roode who hit him with an onslaught of slams and presses. Striker wore him down stretching him out with mat skills, but Mahoney got a tag and matched power with Roode as he was tagged in. Mahoney went for the Nutcracker Suite, but Striker nailed a chop block out of nowhere, and Roode dropped to his feet and quickly hit a massive Spinebuster to take the victory. Roode and Striker both climbed to the top turnbuckles to celebrate before Melina was seen at the top of the ramp eyeballing Roode and Striker once again.

The Force defeat Team Extreme by pinfall at 5:49 (35.4% - 70.2% - 44.4%)

(Commercial Break)

The Chase Continues!

Backstage, Scott Borders and Mickie James were running hand and hand through the concession stands when out of nowhere, Borders was dropped by a flying boot from The Undertaker who was hiding behind a shirt stand. He picked up Borders by the throat and threw him into a wall and began pounding away at his midsection with right and left body shots about the abdomen and midsection. Mickie jumped on Taker's back and tried her best to fight him off, but to no avail as he grabbed her by the hair and snapped her over his shoulder, sending her through a table. From behind, Borders nailed Taker in the head with a replica title belt that was sitting on the table. Taker was sent to the floor from the shot and Borders put the boots to Taker as fans tried to snap pictures. Borders took Taker by the hair and pulled him to his feet and went to hit him in the face, but Taker blocked the shot and threw him head into a water fountain, causing it to bust and spew water in the air. Taker chuckled and looked at the carnage he created before walking off, satisfied with his attack.

3 on 2 Handicap Match

Harry Smith & Austin Aries v. Shane McMahon, Terrance Richards & Phil Brooks

The match started out as an all out brawl. McMahon dropped Aries with a flying clothesline off the ropes. Richards punched Smith in the face. Aries got floored by a McMahon clothesline. The awesome power of Richards was on display as he hit Smith with a military press across the ring. Aries hit Richards with a DDT and then hit a moonsault. Smith and Aries continued their assault of the three men, but eventually all 5 men were in the ring, brawling. Harry Smith took Shane McMahon and hit him with his Running Powerslam and Austin Aries hit Terrance Richards with the 450 Splash, but out of nowhere, Brooks hit Aries with a Shining Wizard. Both men were legal, and Brooks once again pinned Aries. However, Aries was only briefly stunned, and quickly got up to pound a celebrating Brooks in the corner. McMahon rolled to the floor, clutching his ribs when from out of nowhere, Richards ran across the ring hitting a picture perfect GORE to Smith. He rolled out of the ring and celebrated with McMahon at the base of the ring. Aries noticed the carnage and let up of his assault on Brooks to tend to his friend.

Shane McMahon, Terrance Richards & Phil Brooks defeat Harry Smith & Austin Aries by pinfall at 15:07 (56.7% - 74.3% - 67.8%)

In Ring Confrontation

“You Think You Know Me...”

“Metalingus” by Alter Bridge hits, and Edge makes his way to the ring, sans his wife, Jenna. He slides in the ring, and two humps later grabs a mic from ringside. He paces around the ring when “Know Your Role” by Method Man hits, and The People's Champion makes his way to the ring with the chants of “Rocky! Rocky!” in the air. He mounts the turnbuckle, fist raises per usual before hopping down and grabbing a mic as well.

Edge: Rock.

Rock: (mockingly) Edge.

Edge: You know Rock, I requested this in ring time with you because I wanna clear a few things up. Everyone calls you The People's Champion, and one of the biggest legends ever just because you shimmied your leg before dropping an elbow and made the words “candy ass” famous. But what have you really done that makes you a legend? Leave the business that made you to go make some second rate, crappy movies that nobody saw is what you did. Let's face it, Rock. You're a second rate wrestler, and a first class asshole.

Rock: The Rock is a first class asshole? Well, The Rock says this... The Rock became famous for sticking his size 13 boot up the asses of jabronis like you for the past 12 years. The Rock --

Edge: And that's another thing I wanted to point out. I've been wrestling professionally since 1992. I've never left the business. I never quit because this is what I love to do. I've been wrestling longer than you have, and I've damn sure wrestled HARDER than you have. I've been wrestling for 16 years, and in those 16 years, I've missed only ONE and that was due to injury. I --

Rock: Never... AND THE ROCK MEANS, NEVER... cut off The Rock in the middle of a sentence. You want to know why you never missed time because of movies or anything outside of wrestling? The Rock will tell you, Edge. It's because quite frankly, you're too ugly to have your face up on the big screen.

Edge: Shove it, Rock. Highlander: End Game in 2000. I was a featured name, damnit.

Rock: Oh, well excuse The Rock. You were in some roody poo movie that nobody has ever seen in their entire life while The Rock shattered box office records with The Mummy Returns, The Scorpion King, Walking Tall and damnit all, Be Cool. The Rock did that because he could. The Rock did that because the legend he created allowed him to extend his legend to the big screen. The Rock respects the fact that you've put forth 16 years of hard work and effort in the ring. But the fact is, Edge, that in 16 years, you've accomplished NOTHING that makes people utter the world “legend” when saying your name. So explain to The Rock how that makes you better than him.

Seething, Edge turns around and paces across the ring as The Rock eyeballs him, expecting an attack, but receiving a verbal onslaught.

Edge: You have some nerve, Rock, to come out here and take a crap on everything I've done. I am a damn legend, Rock. I am one half of the greatest tag team in the history of the business. I am the man who revolutionized tag team wrestling. Then, I revolutionized singles wrestling. My legend didn't build off of catchphrases or movie deals. My legend grew like Bret Hart's. My legend grew like Shawn Michaels. We built our legacy off of raw talent, something you don't have.

Rock: Raw talent? You wanna compare yourself to Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels? You're right, Edge. The Rock knows what Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart did. But the difference between those two and you is that quite simply, you just aren't as good as either of them, and as far as The Rock is concerned, those two each have more talent in their pinkie fingers than you have in your entire body you candy ass jabroni.

The fans roar in approval of The Rock's comment as Edge steps up face to face with The Rock, who removes his sunglasses.

Rock: Do something, Edge. Because The Rock has --

Edge: Cut it with that bullshit third person crap. It's old now. Newsflash, asshole. We're in 2008. Fans don't buy that you actually refer to yourself in the third person anymore. And as far as your last comment, Rock. Coming from a guy who was born into a family of a no talent boxer and a fat ass Samoan chief who had no clue whether wrestling or the buffet was more important to them, I'd say your judge of talent means not a damn thing to me. And seeing as neither your father or grandfather amounted to a damn thing in their careers, I --

Rock: Okay, now, Edge, you've made it... personal.

Edge: Oh, it's been personal, Rock. You just haven't realized it until just now. You see, I am the backbone of this company and the heart of the business. I am The Lord of the Ring because I command it with an iron fist. And when we step into the ring at Collision Course, you'll realize that the people that you represent can't lead you to a damn thing, and victory? Kiss that notion goodbye, because there's no way you're walking out of Collision Course as the PWA World Champion.

Rock: The Rock says, at Collision Course, victory or not, you're going home with a different outlook on The Rock. This Brahma Bull guarantees that you're gonna be on the receiving in of a beating of a lifetime.

Edge: Screw the Brahma Bull, Rock. This is a 255 asskickin' machine, oiled up and ready. At Collision Course this Sunday, if I beat you, I suppose that'll make me the new People's Champion, wouldn't it?

Rock: Nobody will EVER be the People's Champion except for The Rock, and never forget it.

Edge: Meh. Who cares? I mean, who really wants to represent these no good pieces of ungrateful crap anyway? But let me lay it out simple in layman's terms for you. At Collision Course, I've got three words for you, Rock. Just Bring It!

Rock: Just Bring It? Okay, well The Rock says, that since you wanna lay things out simple, allow The Rock to do the same. The Rock promises you, that at Collision Course, you will smell... what The Rock... is cookin'.

“Know Your Role” by Method Man hits as Rock and Edge get face to face, no words coming from their mouth, but rage spread across their faces as the show fades to black.

END SHOW.

PWA Violation: November 20, 2008

The show opens up, as always with the opening video package, pyro and shots of the crowd before Roddy Piper and Josh Matthews welcome us to the show. They let us know that tonight, there's a #1 contenders match between Matt Hardy, Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin and the winner can face Teddy Hart for the Crown Title any time within 30 days, and Phil Brooks will be having a practice 2 out of 3 Falls Match.

Singles Match

Abyss v Jamal (with Rosey)

Hard hitting match, Rosey was booted from ringside early on. Abyss missed a clothesline from the top rope as Jamal hit a huge spinning heel kick to his face in mid air. Jamal dominated the match from this point, and hit his huge elevated Samoan Drop, but Abyss kicked out. In the end, Jamal bodyslammed Abyss waited for him to get up to connect with the Samoan Spike, but Abyss caught him with the Blackhole Slam and pinned him for the win.

Abyss defeated Jamal by pinfall at 8:24 (47.8% - 67.0% - 56.9%)

(Commercial Break)

Enter The Manning Brothers

Some pre-taped footage begins airing with the camera coming down from a tree and coming down to the front of what looks to be a school. As hundreds of students walk in and out of view, the focus is placed on two young men, one with blond hair and one with black hair. They're both wearing letterman jackets, and nice slacks. They both say Manning on the back of them, and they turn around, smiling.

“Hello, I'm Skyler Manning and this is my brother Spenser. We are coming to the Premier Wrestling Alliance.”

The two smile a cheesy smile, and begin walking towards the parking lot of the school.

Skyler: We're both very happy men. We graduated from the school you see behind us, Foothill High School. We both were on the wrestling team, the football team, the honor society, the thespian society and graduated as the first ever Co-Valedictorians.

Spenser: Together, we made Foothill one of the most talked about schools in the nation, and we made every club we were a part of a success. We went to college, but I had sex with the daughter of the Dean, and I was kicked out and they took my brother along with me. It was a tough time. We had an offer to go to other promotions after that, but we decided against it.

Skyler: We passed up that opportunity and decided to put our superior athletic skills to the test and come to the #1 wrestling promotion in the world today where “premier athletes” such as myself and my brother can showcase our excellent skills.

Spenser: So PWA, we're giving you fair warning. The Manning Brothers are coming, and you can bet money that you're looking at the future of the wrestling industry. Two names, never forget them. Skyler and Spenser Manning.

Girls rush up to them, flocking in packs trying to get laid as we fade back to the ring.

2 out of 3 Falls Match

Phil Brooks v Paul Progress

The first fall began quickly as Progress was tackled to the mat by Brooks and began getting pummeled without a chance. Brooks continued his absolute dominance, hitting him with a Spicoli Driver in the middle of the ring and coming off the top rope with an Elbow Drop. Moments later, he hit the Pepsi Plunge in the middle of the ring rather than from the top rope. Brooks made the cover and picked up the win in fall one. He picked up Progress and hit a step up Enziguri and then locked on the Anaconda Vice, forcing him to tap out for his second straight victory. Seconds later, Austin Aries runs down towards the ring and spins Brooks around, knocking him about with right hands, but Brooks thumbs him in the eyes and kicks him in the midsection, enabling him to quickly dispose of Aries with the Pepsi Plunge in the middle of the ring.

Phil Brooks defeated Paul Progress in two straight falls by pinfall and submission at 5:41 (31.1% - 75.6% - 39.8%)

Hardy's Already The #1

We cut backstage where Matt Hardy is standing by in the interview area, smiling a cocky smile only matched by that of one of his opponents up next, Alex Shelley.

Hardy: Alex Shelley, I just wanted to let you know, that last week on Violation was just business. I mean, I accepted your offer because I needed the TV time, but then I realized, I deserve better than wrestling Chavo Freaking Guerrero. I am above all of that. I mean, I beat Brock Lesnar. The man who is the official bad ass of PWA. What has Chavo Guerrero done lately? Nothing. What about Chris Sabin, or even you? The fact that I am facing you two losers tonight upsets me enough, but every cloud has a silver lining. And the fact that I'll have the opportunity to get a shot at the Crown Title within the next 30 days is enough for me. So tonight, just remember, that the Crown Title shot is coming home... Home, with Version 2.

(Commercial Break)

Singles Match

Bobby Lashley v Human Tornado

This was your basic squash match and Tornady didn't stand a chance. Lashley won the match with a Dominator and then carelessly threw Tornado over the top rope to the floor. Seconds after his victory, Randy Orton hopped over the barricade and slid in the ring. He nailed an unsuspecting Lashley with an RKO and stomped away at him. Rob Van Dam ran down to the ring, and slid in but before he could lay a hand on Orton, DDP pulled him out of the ring and hit him with a Diamond Cutter on the floor. The fans went nuts as DDP slid in the ring and stood next to Orton as both men struck their signature poses. \_o__/

Bobby Lashley defeated Human Tornado in 2:41 (36.5% - 59.3% - 26.3%)

(Commercial Break)

Get Well, Johnny Nitro

“Now as most of you may have heard, my tag team partner and friend, Johnny Nitro is currently out on injury. At Champion's Showcase, he suffered 2 broken rips and a bruised sternum.”

Clips of the match from Champion's Showcase are shown, including the elevated Samoan Drop from Jamal and the clips of Nitro finishing the match in a weakened state, hitting the Shooting Star Press to win the match.

“A lot of you fans have sent your best wishes and get well cards to him in the past couple of days.”

Still shots of get well cards, flowers and other items in Johnny Nitro's bedside are shown as the sppech from Mercury given on Fight continues playing.

“He thanks you all very, very much. A lot of people have been calling him the next Shawn Michaels... There's still fuel left in our tank.”

The text ends with “Johnny Nitro – Returns in 2 Weeks!”

#1 Contenders Match (Crown Title)

Alex Shelley v Matt Hardy v Chris Sabin

A fast paced 3 Way Dance match. Shelley and Hardy squared off in the early going, with Shelley still upset from Hardy's actions last week, however Shelley was the one who was eliminated first. He hit Hardy with the Shell Shock, but seconds later, walked directly into Sabin's Cradle Shock which was enough to send him packing. Hardy and Sabin continued the match, but not without interference from Shelley, who ran down with a chair and attempted to hit Hardy, but nailed Sabin. Either way, he didn't care, and Hardy hit a Leg Drop from the top rope, pinned Sabin and picked up the victory to become the #1 Contender to Teddy Hart's Crown Championship.

Matt Hardy defeated Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley by pinfall at 13:39 to become the #1 Contender to the Crown Title (63.5% - 73.3% - 74.0%)

END SHOW.

PWA Collision Course: November 24, 2008

IPB Image

The Rock became the #1 contender by defeating The Undertaker on Fight. From that point, Edge made it clear that he had no issues with The Rock, but it was all a lie. Edge harbors ill will towards The People's Champion, as seen by the In Ring Confrontation between the two this past week on Fight. At Champions Showcase, Edge vowed that he would be an impartial referee, and indeed he was. However, after the match was over, The Rock laid him out with a Rock Bottom and People's Elbow in the middle of the ring. Edge is still seething from that Rock Bottom, and from the words exchanged between them. This is The Rock's first high profile match in quite some time, but you can bet that these two men will create a type of magic that only brutality can promise. With the World Title on the line, anything can happen. Chances are, something big will happen.

IPB Image

Chris Jericho and Brock Lesnar is a classic rivalry of respect. However, it didn't begin that way. One month ago, both men were set to challenge World Champion, Edge for his title at Cry of the Souls. Protecting his investment, Jericho brutally attacked Lesnar, hoping to take him out of the match. He was almost successful, however, Lesnar returned to action a week before the pay per view and got some revenge. Nonetheless, neither man captured the title. From there, Jericho made it clear that his actions towards Lesnar was business only and nothing personal and offered Lesnar a match at Champion's Showcase where Jericho was victorious, though not without controversy. Another match between the two was signed, and it has been dubbed "A Match for the People". Lesnar and Jericho are two magnificent athletes, and this is sure to be yet another classic produced by each competitor. With nothing to lose and everything to gain such as a future shot at the World Title, these men will put it all on the line, but only one man can be the victor.

IPB Image

This is sure to be a brutal contest. Scott Borders has been slaving not only his entire tenure with PWA, but his entire career and claims to have never had anything handed to him. This was perfect reason for him to get upset when The Undertaker was granted a match against The Rock where the winner would be the #1 contender to Edge's Title. Borders took offense that Undertaker would immediately stick his nose in business such as that, and made it a point to rid PWA of the Undertaker. He was almost successful, but Undertaker chokeslammed him to hell and gave Borders' main squeeze, Mickie James a Tombstone putting them out of action for a short period of time. Upon their return, they helped to cost Taker and The Rock their match at Champion's Showcase. They've brawled since then, and Taker has proven that there's no way that Borders can match him in a fight. But this will be a legalized match, and the clash of styles will have to work in someone's favor. The only question is, who has the advantage here?

IPB Image

The Brooks/Aries rivalry has electrified fans throughout the summer, and has burst through autumn with a vengeance. These two men have ripped, torn, scratched, clawed, bit and bled to resolve this issue permanently, and though Brooks has been the one man who has come out on top more often than not, Aries refuses to die. With $100,000 on the line as well as well as Austin's career, these two men have everything on the line. Aries has made it a point to make sure that everyone knows that if he wins the match, that the $100,000 that Brooks will have to give to him will go towards his wedding with Nattie. Brooks on the other hand has maintained his confidence, pinning Aries in a Tag Team Match on Fight. Brooks has more to gain than Aries, but this rivalry is personal and Aries is out for the money, the blood and success. He has yet to gain that success, but this seemingly will be his last opportunity to pick up a victory over Brooks. If he doesn't pick up that victory, then it'll be the last we'll see of Austin Aries in the Premier Wrestling Alliance.

IPB Image

Randy Orton blames Rob Van Dam for his lack of condience, motivation and more importantly, the losing streak that Orton has been on since Vendetta. Rob Van Dam could care less, and has since moved on, even challenging The Rock and The Undertaker, and aligning himself with The Coach and Bobby Lashley as The New Elite Alliance. After striking a fan's father out of frustration, Orton was directed to Diamond Dallas Page by Chris Jericho. Page has taken a few weeks to get Orton back into the correct state of mind. This past week on Fight, Orton returned to the PWA and let Rob Van Dam know that he was coming to rectify this entire ordeal and put RVD away for causing this losing streak. Can he win the match, or will he suffer yet another defeat?

IPB Image

Shane McMahon has proved before that he can't be trusted, but everyone thought he had changed his ways. Obviously, everyone was wrong. Shane turned his back on Harry Smith and aligned himself with his new bodyguard, Terrance Richards. Harry has been given a great opportunity to showcase his skills in the PWA thus far, but according to Shane McMahon, he is the only superstar that hasn't thanked him for passing along the platform to perform. Harry says he doesn't need to kiss ass to be a success and while he wants Shane in the ring, he has to go through Richards first. On PWA.com, Shane McMahon told us that if Smith can beat Richards, he will give Harry five minutes in the ring with him. This will be a hard hitting match, and you know that Harry will as always be on his A game.

IPB Image

Jamie Noble defeated Carlito for the US Title the night after Vendetta in September and Carlito seemingly disappeared. Noble also found a way to retain his US Title against Chris Daniels at Cry of the Souls. But Daniels didn't pout. After dropping an N-Bomb in Shelton Benjamin's direction, he got himself an International Title shot and won. Now, Carlito has returned and Shelton has received his rematch and all four men are vying for the gold. Shane McMahon booked this match, but it has since been revealed that it will be a Unification Match. One title will die, and someone will go home with a title added with more prestige. But the question is, which title dies and which title shall survive?

Singles Match

Randy Orton (w/DDP) v Rob Van Dam

Backstory: Randy Orton blames Rob Van Dam for his lack of condience, motivation and more importantly, the losing streak that Orton has been on since Vendetta. Rob Van Dam could care less, and has since moved on, even challenging The Rock and The Undertaker, and aligning himself with The Coach and Bobby Lashley as The New Elite Alliance. After striking a fan's father out of frustration, Orton was directed to Diamond Dallas Page by Chris Jericho. Page has taken a few weeks to get Orton back into the correct state of mind. This past week on Fight, Orton returned to the PWA and let Rob Van Dam know that he was coming to rectify this entire ordeal and put RVD away for causing this losing streak. Can he win the match, or will he suffer yet another defeat?

“The following match is scheduled for one fall! First, from Battle Creek, Michigan, weighing in at 236 pounds... ROB VAN DAM!!

And his opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Diamond Dallas Page, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 257 pounds... RANDY ORTON!!!”

The match started out with Van Dam and Orton circling each other around the ring as DDP got a strong Orton chant going in the crowd. Orton and RVD locked up in the middle of the ring with Orton getting the upper hand. He whipped RVD into the ropes and was dropped to the mat with a shoulder tackle. Van Dam went for a leg drop, but Orton rolled out of the way. He swept RVD up with a leg sweep, went for the elbow, but Rob moved. Rob went for a standing senton, but Orton rolled away. He picked up Van Dam and went for a DDT, but it was reversed into a backdrop, but Orton landed on his feet. They both turned around, and RVD got dropkicked in the face by Orton, finally keeping him down as the crowd got to their feet. Orton paced the ring, looking as confidant as ever and waited for Van Dam to get up. RVD went for a tie up, and Orton locked on a chinlock and quickly dropped him with a modified neckbreaker. Van Dam regained control when Orton missed his cross body block from the top rope and crashed to the mat which Van Dam followed up with a rolling thunder, but only got a two count. Van Dam went for the move which he originally defeated Orton with, The Split Legged Moonsault, but Orton got up and shoved him off the top rope to the floor below. This is where the things changed. Orton slid him back in the ring, and Van Dam raked his eyes and Orton stumbled into the referee, knocking him out of the ring. RVD hopped to the top and hit the 5 Star Frog Splash, and there was no referee to count the pinfall. RVD went to the outside and tried to wake the referee up, but DDP spun him around and nailed him with a Diamond Cutter on the floor. He rolled his prone body into the ring, woke up the ref and Orton picked up the victory following a pinfall. DDP slid in the ring and celebrated with Orton who was legit surprised that he picked up the victory. DDP picked up Orton on his shoulders, and he struck the Orton pose on Page's shoulders. \_o__/

Randy Orton defeated Rob Van Dam by pinfall at 15:24 (73.4% - 82.0% - 81.1%)
