"Evolution" by Korn plays as the opening credits roll. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2250451/overdrive_entrance_video

Shannon Skanes and Bruce Miller are seen entering the arena. They turn a corner and comes face to face with Rated R. Shannon jumps back a foot.

Rated R - I see you remember me.

Shannon spears Rated R to the floor as security rushes in, Wyatt Gibson close behind.

Wyatt Gibson - What the fuck?! Turn off the cameras! How the fuck did he get in? Turn off the cameras!

Wyatt slaps the camera out of the cameraman's hand and the shot turns to snow as it hits the floor. There are a few seconds of snow and then we see a grainy shot from what appears to be a handheld camera. Rated R is on his feet, his nose bleeding from a punch Shannon had given him.

Shannon Skanes - You don't belong here, Ryan!

Rated R - I was invited, asshole! Let it the fuck go!

Shannon Skanes - You're a piece of shit!

Rated R - I could say the same of you, hypocrite. I could fucking sue you for assault!

Shannon Skanes - Go for it, you piece of shit. It's the only way you can make any money!

Bruce Miller - Get him out of here. Shannon, shut up!

Wyatt shakes his head and then spots the camera taping this event.

Wyatt Gibson - Is that a fucking camera phone? Turn it off or you're fired!

Again, we see snow for a few moments and then we abruptly go to Ricky Simms and Henry Lesher at ringside.

Ricky Simms - Don't throw to me. I'm not ready.

Henry Lesher - What the hell is going on?

Ricky Simms - The show's gone to shit now. The director's yelling in my ear. What the hell am I supposed to do?

Henry Lesher - How did he get in?

Ricky Simms - Hell if I know.

The shot then abruptly goes to black and we hear nothing. After a few moments, we see the CWA logo and hear elevator music playing while a messages scrawls across the screen telling us that Overdrive is having technical problems. We then suddenly return to the opening credits. http://www.metacafe.com/watch/2250451/overdrive_entrance_video

We then see a confused looking Vesuvius in his locker room with Crystal Braun.

Crystal Braun - *looking off camera* Now? *faces the camera* Okay, I have caught up with the greatest hero in the CWA today with Vesuvius here.

Vesuvius - Tonight, we were going to debut an Anarchy Angel inside that ring. I have decided that tonight is not the night. *pauses, apparently forgetting what to say next* I have decided to.... next week will be a big week for Anarchy.

Crystal Braun - How so?

Henry Lesher - This is a piece of crap.

Ricky Simms - *heard faintly* Your mike is live, Doc.

Henry Lesher - Oh sh--- *cuts out*

Vesuvius - Next week, tune into Overdrive and watch as I make Max Cameron earn his contract in this company. Watch as Max Cameron is shown what Anarchy is really all about.

Crystal Braun - I look forward to that. It's time a real hero was inside a CWA ring again. *turns to face off camera again* Did we get it?

The shot turns to snow for a moment again, the show completely thrown into chaos as we go to ringside where Ricky Simms and Henry Lesher are looking through papers on their desk and clearly are barely ready to host a show.

Puckbunny Rose vs. Frank Merritt

"If You Seek Amy" by Britney Spears plays as Puckbunny Rose makes her way onto the stage. She smiles and waves to cheering fans as she runs down the ramp, a Canadian flag draped over her shoulders. She is then followed out by Scavenger, who is on crutches and gets a loud ovation from the crowd. He slowly makes his way down the ramp as Tough Eagle comes out and joins him, then helps him the rest of the way to ringside. They take their places at ringside and Scavenger gives Rose a thumbs up while her music fades and then we hear "Shut Your Mouth" by Pain and Frank Merritt comes out to a surprisingly strong ovation from the crowd. He looks down into the ring and shakes his head towards his opponent tonight. He then makes his way down the ramp to ringside and then pulls himself onto the apron and calls for the microphone from ring announcer Sammy Jo Johnson.

Frank Merritt - *as he steps into the ring* You know, I have been off for a long time. I was really looking forward to getting into the ring and proving myself this week. I want to take a step towards my ultimate goal which is the world title. Instead, I get this? I get a Kosmic Kitty wanna be and that bitch is nothing in my ring. That makes you less than nothing. *turns to Scavenger and Tough Eagle* I look at ringside and I see two members of the Village People. You're the constraction worker, Scav, though those fairies could at least dance. It doesn't look like you'll be dancing for a few months. Eagle, you were a sad shell of a wrestler at the peak of your career. Now, you skulk around with various whores like this idiot and you're a fucking joke. Everyone backstage snickers like Paul London when you go by. You don't see it because you're clueless. This is why the CWA is going down the toilet. Real talent like Eli Ryder, Rated R and Vigilante are left on the sidelines while trailer park trash like this is inside the ring with me. Let's make this quick. I have a fucking job to do.

He tosses the microphone from the ring and gives Rose a thundering clothesline to the mat as referee Casey Braun calls for the bell. Frank then picks Rose up and gives her a power slam to the mat and goes for the pin. 1...2... Frank pulls her up by the hair. Frank then stands Rose up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a vicious boot to the face and then gives her a leg drop across the throat. He then taunts Scavenger and Eagle at ringside. Eagle jumps onto the apron where the referee warns him to get down or Rose gets disqualified. Frank again motions for the microphone.

Frank Merritt - You wanna fight me, old man? You want to defend this bimbo? She isn't worth it and you know it. I am going to punish this company for sending me crap like this on my return. I am going to start by beating this girl into retirement and I'll throttle you before I take Scavenger out with his crutches. I guess I have to remind people why I am the monster of the CWA!

Frank again tosses the microphone back to Sammy Jo who is seen shaking her head as she sits back down. Inside the ring, Frank pulls Rose by the hair to her feet.  He then gives her a head butt to the mat and chuckles as he stands over her. He again taunts her managers at ringside. Frank then stands Rose up, whips her off the ropes and gives her the dreaded heart punch. Frank then places a foot on her chest as the referee counts the pin. 1...2...3! Frank wins the match and Rose doesn't land a single blow on the returning monster. He then rolls himself out of the ring to the floor and has words with Tough Eagle. Eagle goes for a punch which Frank blocks and then he gives Eagle a vicious clothesline to the floor before kicking the crutches out from under Scavenger then giving him a chop block to the injured knee while the fans boo. Frank applies a figure four leglock on Scavenger while an already overworked security team rushes out to break things up.

Ricky Simms - This night just is a complete mess so far.

Henry Lesher - Frank made me smile, though. The man speaks the truth.
 

Myst is seen in her office drinking a beer, when there is a knock at her door.

Myst - Yeah...

Jordan Gibson peeks her head in.

Jordan Gibson - Have a minute?

Myst - Did you hear the language on tonight's show so far? It's live. I was told to use a three second delay, but I had to be genuine and now we're headed for a major fine. What do you want?

Jordan Gibson - Well, I was wondering about how Rose gets paid for the beating she just took. She isn't under contract.

Myst - You answered you own question. She doesn't get paid. Scavenger will be lucky if he's still insured now. He puts himself in harm's way like that, hardly our fault. I may discuss this with the insurance company.

Jordan Gibson - Ariel backed out.

Myst - No one gives a damn about the Anarchy Angels except for Vesuvius. His ass will be inside the ring next week, but he doesn't get Max.

Jordan Gibson - Why not?

Myst - Max is causing problems. It's time I ratchet up the heat on him.

Jordan Gibson - Meaning?

Myst - Look, I don't have to tell you squat. We're a month into 2009 and there's a diva title match. Prove that this division is worth caring about or I'll dissolve that belt and send you packing.

Jordan Gibson - The locker room is nervous after the way tonight started.

Myst - I know that. I banned Shannon from the building tonight. He can cool off. I don't want to see Rated R in a CWA arena again.

Jordan Gibson - But I heard...

Myst - I don't care what you heard. My word is law around here.

Jordan backs out of the office before asking anymore questions.

Total Darkness vs. Hoshi Yakamoto & Tanja Michaels

"Last Resort" by Papa Roach plays as Black Lightning and Donovan Blake make their way onto the stage, the crowd giving them a loud chorus of boos. They make their way down the ramp and talk strategy to one another as they reach ringside. They agree that Lightning will starts the match and he rolls himself under the bottom rope into the ring while Blake takes his place in their corner on the apron. Their music then fades and we hear "Switch 625" by Def Leppard and Hoshi Yakamoto comes out onto the stage with Tanja Michaels close behind her. The two get a loud ovation from the crowd as they then run down the ramp to ringside and Tanja leaps onto the apron and then jumps over the top rope into the ring. She then gives a surprised Black Lightning a series of knife edge chops to the chest while referee Mary Sanderson calls for the bell to get the action started.

Ricky Simms - It looks like we are finally going to see a standard match here.

Henry Lesher - Hey, this show has been really entertaining so far in an end of the world kind of way.

Tanja whips Black Lightning off the ropes and then gives him a dropkick that sends him down to the mat. She then goes to the corner buckle and quickly makes her way to the top rope and then leaps off, landing a flying knee drop to the forehead on Lightning before she goes for the quick pin. 1...2... kick out by Black Lightning. Tanja stands Black Lightning up, whips him off the ropes and goes for another dropkick, but Lightning grabs the ropes and Tanja instead crashes to the mat where Lightning puts the boots to her. Black Lightning then drags Tanja to his corner and tags in Donovan Blake. They then gives Tanja Michaels a double vertical suplex to the mat.

Ricky Simms - Tanja is in trouble here,

Henry Lesher - I don't care. This is putting me to sleep.

Blake stands Tanja up, whips her into a neutral corner and then he gives her a shoulder block in the corner. Blake then whips her to the opposite corner and charges in for another shoulder block, but she sidesteps it and does a shoulder roll to her corner where she tags in Hoshi. Hoshi then charges into the ring and gives Donovan Blake a series of kicks to the gut and then she whips him off the ropes and then gives him a backdrop to the mat followed by a knee drop to the forehead before she goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Donovan Blake. Hoshi then gets to her feet, pulling Blake up and then she whips him into the corner before she climbs to the second rope. She starts raining down punches on Blake, but he wraps his arms around Hoshi and pulls her out of the corner before delivering a sit down powerbomb on her and then he goes for the pin. 1...2... Hoshi rolls a shoulder out.

Ricky Simms - Good back and forth action in this one, near wins either way.

Henry Lesher - Just make it end already. No one cares.

Blake stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a clothesline to the mat. Blake then picks Hoshi up and slams her to the mat and then gives her a knee to the forehead before he again goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Hoshi. Blake then stands Hoshi up, whips her off the ropes and she ducks a clothesline, does a handstand and then gives Blake a head scissors take down to the mat where she quickly applies a sleeper hold on Donovan Blake. The referee checks for a submission while Black Lightning is seen pacing on the apron. Blake refuses to submit and reaches for the ropes while Hoshi struggles to hold on for the win. Blake stops reaching for the ropes and instead gives Hoshi an elbow to the ribs and then gives her a snap mare to the mat which breaks the hold and then he tags in Black Lightning. Black Lightning climbs the ropes in the corner and then waits for Hoshi to stand. He leaps off the top for a flying cross body, but Hoshi ducks it and then she does a standing moonsault onto the fallen Black Lightning before she goes for the pin. 1...2...3! Hoshi and Tanja get the win. Hoshi gets to her feet with a smile on her face, but she takes a vicious clothesline to the mat from Donovan Blake.

Ricky Simms - Well, Total Darkness lose and they're showing their sportsmanship here.

Henry Lesher -  Oh, there you go wussing up the show again.

Blake and Black Lightning leave the ring and head towards the back while Tanja Michaels checks on Hoshi Yakamoto.

[The scene switches backstage where we see Vertigo laying knocked out on the floor. Laying on Vertigo's chest is a large manilla envelope, and a brand on the envelope reads "M.R." A few CWA officials are on the scene as they are trying to help Vertigo come to. Both Myst and Wyatt Gibson walk into the picture as well and look down as Vertigo is being attended to.]

Wyatt Gibson - M.R.? You know anyone with those initials?

Myst - Meg Ryan?

Wyatt Gibson - I don't think Meg Ryan beat up Vertigo and left him laying here....Maybe Mark Reynolds?

Myst - Who the hell is Mark Reynolds?

Wyatt Gibson - You know...the 3rd baseman for the Diamon....ahh never mind.

Myst - This is just great. Now we've got someone else on the prowl backstage along with the EVC.

The officials continue attending to Vertigo as we head back to ringside.

Henry Lesher - M.R.?

Ricky Simms - Yeah, it baffles me as well.

Henry Lesher - Shampoo bottle instructions baffle you, Rick.

Malk vs. Daniel McCoy

"Firefly" by Breaking Benjamin plays as Daniel McCoy comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He makes his way down the ramp and stops at ringside to look around at the crowd before he pulls himself onto the apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring. His music then fades and we hear "Voices" by Rev Theory as Malk makes his way onto the stage where the crowd gives him a warm ovation. He then makes his way down the ramp, an evil grin on his face as he looks at McCoy inside the ring. Malk then makes his way up the ring steps onto the apron before he steps through the ropes into the ring. Referee Mark Davis then calls for the bell as Malk and McCoy circle one another in the ring. Malk moves in for a lock up and takes a kick to the gut from McCoy. McCoy then whips Malk into the corner buckle and then gives him a series of kicks to the gut. McCoy then gives Malk an arm drag to the middle of the ring and applies an arm bar.

Ricky Simms - Control belongs to McCoy early here.

Henry Lesher - He's taking advantage of the fact that Malk is slow and dim.

Malk gets to his feet and gives McCoy a series of knife edge chops which back him into the ropes. Malk then gives McCoy an Irish whip off the ropes and then gives him a spear to the mat where he goes for the quick pin. 1...2... kick out by McCoy. Malk then stands McCoy up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a backdrop to the mat. Malk then picks McCoy up and gives him a running power slam to the mat where he again goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by McCoy. Malk then stands McCoy up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Malk drops and then joins McCoy outside the ring.

Ricky Simms - This should be to the advantage of the bigger wrestler Malk.

Henry Lesher - Yeah, but you forget that he's stupid. That evens it out nicely.

Malk stands McCoy up on the floor and then slams his face into the guard railing. He then whips him shoulder first into the steel ring steps. Malk then sets McCoy for a German suplex on the floor. McCoy then gives Malk a series of elbows to the gut and then turns and gives Malk a knee to the gut followed by a headlock into a bulldog to the floor. McCoy then stands Malk up and rolls him into the ring before doing the same himself. McCoy then goes for the pin on Malk. 1...2... kick out by Malk and McCoy has words with the referee about the speed of the count.

Ricky Simms - McCoy thought he had him there.

Henry Lesher - Well, it is Malk. It's odd when you don't get an automatic win out of it.

McCoy stands Malk up, whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him a monkey flip to the center of the ring, McCoy then leaps to the top rope in the corner and waits for Malk to stand. He goes for a missile dropkick on Malk, but Malk side steps it and gives the flying McCoy a clothesline to the mat and then goes for the pin. 1...2... McCoy rolls a shoulder out. Malk then stands McCoy up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a spinning heel kick that brings him back down to the mat. Malk then looks to the crowd and appears ready to end the match.

Ricky Simms - Malk looks confident at this point.

Henry Lesher - Everything about Malk traces back to his stupidity,

Malk stands McCoy up and takes a low blow from McCoy as the referee calls for the bell. Malk doubles over, but he still manages to pick McCoy up and gives him a jackknife powerbomb to the mat which draws cheers from the crowd as he is announced as the winner by DQ.

Ricky Simms - McCoy gets himself disqualified, but he still takes a beating afterward.

Henry Lesher - Yeah, but he didn't hit a major organ with that low blow. Sad, isn't it?

Malk rolls himself out of the ring and has his arm raised by the referee on the floor while he makes his way up the ramp towards the back.

Myst is seen outside the arena with a police officer.

Police Officer - So, why is it that your husband attacked Ryan Yorke?

Myst - I don't want to get into that. Look, this can stop right here. There is no need for legal involvement.

Police Officer - Ma'am, I would agree if we hadn't been called in on this one.

Myst - Where were you when Rated R ran me down?

Police Officer - That's not for me to dicsuss. This is about the here and now and your husband assaulted a man you do not have under contract.

Myst - He shouldn't have been here.

Police Officer - I am afraid that is not good enough. We have to bring your husband in for questioning. Mister Yorke is looking to press charges.

Myst - That's insane.

Police Officer - Then your husband can explain that in court if necessary.

The police officer shakes his head as he walks away from Myst and we assume heads off to arrest Shannon on an assault charge.

6Pac Dudley vs. Greyson Blaze

"My Own Eenemy" by Thousand Foot Krutch plays as Greyson Blaze makes his way onto the stage where the crowd gives him a strong ovation. Blaze then quickly makes his way down the ramp while telling the camera that he is going to get an Aerial title match out of this battle tonight. Blaze winks at the camera and then pulls himself onto the apron before stepping through the ropes into the ring. Blaze then tests the ropes while his music fades and then we hear "Southtown" by POD and 6Pac Dudley makes his way onto the stage where the crowd greets him with loud boos. He smiles for the camera and states there is no way he is losing his title match tonight. He then runs down the ramp and slides under the bottom rope into the ring where he is greeted by Blaze putting the boots to him while referee Steve Blake calls for the bell to officially start the match.

Ricky Simms - If 6Pac loses this match, Blaze gets the Aerial title shot at Battle of the Warriors.

Henry Lesher - Either way, I don't care.

Blaze stands 6Pac up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a backdrop to the mat and then puts the boots to 6Pac again. Blaze then goes to the ropes, makes his way to the second rope and then lands a double axe handle smash to the back on 6Pac before rolling him over for the pin. 1...2... kick out by 6Pac Dudley. Blaze then stands 6Pac up, whips him off the ropes and then misses with a clothesline when 6Pac ducks it and then gives Greyson an inverted DDT to the mat before going for a quick pin himself. 1...2... kick out by Blaze. 6Pac then stands Blaze up and whips him through the ropes and to the floor. 6Pac waits for Blaze to get to his feet and then flies through the ropes with a suicide dive onto Blaze. 6Pac then rams Blaze's head into the floor before he then stands Blaze up and whips him over the guard railing and right into the crowd.

Ricky Simms - 6Pac is a hardcore wrestler and he is schooling Blaze in those aspects of the sport.

Henry Lesher - He sucks and can't wrestle, so he needs to cheat to win. I get it.

6Pac pulls Blaze back over the guard railing and rolls him into the ring and then rolls himself into the ring, the two men barely beating the ten count. 6Pac then goes for the pin on Blaze. 1...2... kick out by Greyson Blaze. 6Pac then stands Blaze up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a dropkick that sends him back down to the mat. 6Pac then goes to the corner buckle and makes his way to the top rope. He goes for a moonsault onto Blaze and lands on raised knees from Greyson. Greyson then jumps to his feet and again puts the boots to 6Pac Dudley. Blaze then stands 6Pac up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Greyson then goes to the ropes and makes his way to the top. 6Pac stands and takes a flying shoulder block from Greyson Blaze which sends him back to the floor.

Ricky Simms - Tremendous high impact move here by Blaze on 6Pac. He could be getting that title shot now. 6Pac may regret putting that on the line.

Henry Lesher - No one cares. Babies are crying. Dogs are howling. Old ladies hate their grandchildren.

Ricky Simms - Give me a break.

Greyson stands 6Pac up and tries to roll him into the ring, but 6Pac holds himself out and then gives Greyson a clothesline to the floor. 6Pac smiles as the referee reaches a ten count and then calls for the bell. 6Pac tells the camera that he is smarter than Blaze tonight.

Ricky Simms - It's a double count out, but 6Pac keeps his title shot.

Henry Lesher - I still don't care.

6Pac raises his arms in mock victory and tells the camera that he is ready to take Bombshell out now, but "Somebody Told Me" by The Killers plays and Wyatt Gibson makes his way onto the stage.

Wyatt Gibson - 6Pac, you made a smart move there. You didn't lose to a very game Greyson, but these fans have taken a liking to Blaze in a way that they don't like you. Fact is, we want the best possible match inside that steel cage at Battle of the Warriors. We have decided there is a great way to do this. You keep your title shot. Now, you get to give Greyson a late Christmas present, though, as it is now a triple threat match.

The crowd cheers and 6Pac looks upset, but there is a sudden charge over the railing from Shadow who takes 6Pac to the floor with a clothesline and then he starts putting the boots to Greyson Blaze. Shadow then picks Blaze up and runs him head first into the steel ring post and then gives him a power slam to the floor. Shadow then stands over Greyson, nodding his head while the fans boo.

Ricky Simms - What the hell is Shadow doing out here?

Henry Lesher - He is showing the world how horrible the Aerial title division is.
 
Myst is seen mumbling to herself as she makes her way to her office.

Myst - How could tonight get any worse?

She rounds the corner and comes face to face with Kathy Smith.

Myst - Is that loser I smell?

Kathy Smith - We're allies, aren't we?

Myst - Things change nightly around here, hard to tell really.

Kathy Smith - Did you know Ryan was here tonight?

Myst - Look, I was grilled by that cop. You're not grilling me, too.

Kathy Smith - You gonna fire me?

Myst - *smiles* You know what? Your little group of bimbos is as useful as the Anarchy Angels to me. If Chastity loses her belt tonight, I will send you all packing. You had better hope she keeps the gold around her waist.

Kathy Smith - She will.

Myst - Yeah, good luck.

Kathy walks away and then Tony Parizi enters the picture.

Tony Parizi - This is going the way you said it would.

Myst - Tony, I know what I am doing. The pins are all lined up and I just have to knock them down. That bitch will be out of work by the end of the night and my plan will almost be complete.

Tony Parizi - And Shannon doesn't have a clue?

Myst - He thinks Dynasty is a joint stable. I am the puppet master here. They dance when I tell them to.

Eternity vs. Joe Jones vs. Max Cameron

"Hell's Bells" by AC/DC plays and we wait for Max Cameron to come out onto the stage, Instead, Max leaps over the guard railing and we find out he was seated at ringside. He even shows the camera that he paid for his ticket and he hands it to Vigilante at ringside. Max then rolls himself under the bottom rope into the ring as his music fades. We then hear "The Imperial March" by Metallica and expect Eternity to come out. Instead, he comes out already fighting with Joe Jones. The two exchange punches on the stage and then Eternity gives Jones an eye gouge before he clotheslines him to the stage. Eternity then stands Jones up and tosses him down the ramp towards the ring. Eternity then slams Jones' face into the ring apron and takes an eye gouge from Jones who then knees Eternity in the gut before ramming his head into the ring steps.

Ricky Simms - Eternity and Jones are really going at it, which is a good thing for Max.

Henry Lesher - God knows he isn't man enough to win a match like this on his own merit.

Jones then rolls Eternity into the ring where Max greets him with a headlock into a DDT. Jones then rolls himself into the ring and referee Rob Rai calls for the bell to officially start the match. Max stands Eternity up, whips him off the ropes and gives him a knee lift to the gut and then gives him a swinging neckbreaker to the mat. Max then gets to his feet and takes a clothesline to the mat from Joe Jones. Jones then puts the boots to Eternity before he stands him up and then whips him into Max, sending both crashing back down to the mat. Joe Jones then picks Max Cameron up and slams him to the mat and then gives him a knee to the forehead. Jones then stands Eternity up, whips him into the corner buckle and goes for a shoulder block, but Eternity side steps it and sends Joe into the corner shoulder first.

Ricky Simms - Great action early in this triple threat match up.

Henry Lesher - Hey, even I like this match. Finally, the show is getting on track.

Eternity picks Joe Jones up and then drops him in the corner, making certain his face bounces off the turnbuckle before he falls to the mat in a heap. Eternity then goes over to Max and places him in a headlock. He goes for a DDT, but Max blocks it and then gives Eternity a series of punches to the gut followed by a face buster to the mat and then he rolls him over for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Eternity. Max then stands Eternity up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Max turns his attention to Jones and the two men start sparring. Jones then knees Max in the gut and then gives him a stunner before he goes for the pin. 1...2... Max rolls a shoulder out.

Ricky Simms - I thought Jones had him there.

Henry Lesher - He did. The ref is a fool.

Jones stands max up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Eternity then chop blocks Jones to the mat and then quickly applies an ankle lock submission hold on Jones. Jones refuses to submit when asked by the referee and he reaches for the ropes while Max pulls himself onto the apron from the floor. Max goes to the corner buckle and makes his way to the top rope, Eternity still struggling to reach the ropes. Max leaps off the top and gives Joe Jones a dropkick to the back which sends him face first to the mat and then Max goes for the pin on Jones. 1...2... kick out by Joe Jones.

Ricky Simms - Amazing move by Max and it nearly got the win.

Henry Lesher - Max never met an almost he didn't like, almost a husband, almost a dad, almost a wrestler...

Max stands Jones up, whips him off the ropes and both men clothesline each other to the mat while Eternity uses the ropes to get to his feet. Suddenly the lights in the arena go out. The fans are cheering as "Midnight Rider" by the Allman Bros. starts playing over the loudspeakers. We can hear a commotion in the ring as the fans are quiet, not knowing how to react.

Henry Lesher - What the hell is going on here? Did someone turn on the country music station?

Ricky Simms - Shut up Henry, I like this song...

Henry Lesher - Figures....

Ricky Simms - Something is going on in the ring though....

Suddenly the lights come back on in the arena, and on the outside of the ring Max Cameron looks to be unconscious and hog tied on the outside of the ring. Inside the ring Joe Jones has a huge knot on his head and a bull rope with a cowbell on the end of it laying next to him! Eternity is standing in the ring and looks like he has no clue what's going on. As the camera pans in on Max's back we see a brand on his back that reads "M.R." In the ring the camera pans in to Joe's chest and he has the same exact brand!

Henry Lesher - Ok, so how did those two get laid out? Is this the same guy that got Vertigo earlier?

Ricky Simms - Dude I have no clue...the lights were out.

Eternity takes advantage of the situation and quickly covers Joe Jones hooking the leg. The referee counts 1....2....3!! Eternity wins!!

Henry Lesher - So Max is hog tied, and Double J was clearly laid out with a cowbell.....is the rodeo in town?

Ricky Simms - No, but this reeks of EVC interference!

Henry Lesher - How? It said "M.R." not EVC!

Ricky Simms - Whatever....

Myst is seen pacing in her office when Wyatt walks in, shaking his head.

Wyatt Gibson - You should have seen what just happened to Jones.

Myst - I have bigger fish to fry.

Wyatt Gibson - What's going on?

Myst - Tonight we are giving someone a huge send off.

Wyatt Gibson - More cuts?

Myst - It's insurance, too. This will strengthen Dynasty and focus my husband on what matters most in this world, me.

Wyatt Gibson - I'm all ears.

Diva Title Match

"C-Lebrity by Queen and Paul Rodgers plays as Veronica Olivia DiAtella-Yakamoto makes her way onto the stage, accompanied by Hoshi Yakamoto who appears to worse for wear from what she endured earlier tonight. They make their way down the ramp towards the ring with Hoshi giving Veronica pointers on what to do in certain situations inside the ring. Veronica then pulls herself onto the apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring, almost tripping over the bottom rope, but maintaining her balance. Her music then fades and we hear "Naked Cousin" by PJ Harvey and Chastity is led onto the stage by Missy and Kathy Smith. The three of them then march their way down the ramp towards the ring, Chastity holding the belt on her shoulder. Chastity stops at ringside and hands the belt to Kathy and then rolls herself under the bottom rope into the ring. We then hear "Lala" by Ashlee Simpson and the crowd erupts when Kosmic Kitty makes her way onto the stage. She is throwing Twinkies out to the crowd from a basket which harkens back to the GWO days. She then hands the basket to a lucky little girl at ringside before kissing her forehead and then she jumps onto the ring apron and then leaps over the top rope into the ring. Referee Mary Sanderson then calls for the bell to get things started.

Ricky Simms - Apparently the Glamour Girls' jobs are on the line in this one.

Henry Lesher - They mean nothing and neither does that belt. I understand this move by Myst entirely.

Chastity and Kosmic Kitty lock up in the middle of the ring while Veronica looks on. Kosmic then whips Chastity off the ropes and gives her a ick to the gut and then gives her a bulldog to the mat. Kosmic then stands Chastity up and whips her into the corner buckle before Kitty then does a hand stand into a head scissors which she sues to bring Chastity down to the mat. Kathy and Missy are then seen pacing nervously outside the ring while Kitty stands Chastity up, whips her off the ropes and Chastity ducks a clothesline and then she gives Kitty a side Russian leg sweep to the mat before going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Kosmic Kitty.

Ricky Simms - Kitty and Chastity go at it while Veronica looks on in her first match.

Henry Lesher - What other title could you win in your first match? What other title means so little?

Chastity stands Kitty up and they both take a clothesline from Veronica who then puts the boots to Chastity while Hoshi applauds from ringside. Veronica then stands Chastity up, whips her off the ropes and gives her a backdrop to the mat before Kitty rolls her into a school boy pin attempt. 1...2... kick out by Veronica. Kitty then gets to her feet and starts trading rights and lefts with Veronica. Chastity then gets to her feet and then slams the two divas heads together. Chastity then whips Kosmic Kitty through the ropes and out to the floor. Chastity then whips Veronica into the corner buckle and then charges in for a shoulder block, but Veronica brings a knee up and catches Chastity in the side of the head with it before giving her a clothesline to the mat. Veronica then goes to the ropes and makes her way to the second rope and then dives off, landing a leg drop across the chest on Chastity before she hooks the leg for the pin. 1...2...3! We have a new diva champ!

Ricky Simms - In what has to be seen as a huge upset, Veronica Olivia DiAtella-Yakamoto is our new divas champ!

Henry Lesher - This proves why the title should be dissolved.

Kosmic Kitty is seen pouting on the floor while Kathy slides into the ring and hands Veronica her new title belt. Kathy then looks to Chastity who appears to have hurt her neck on the knee she took from the new champ. As Missy joins Kathy inside the ring, we hear "A Place For My Head" by Linkin Park and the arena erupts with boos when Myst makes her way onto the stage, a microphone in hand.

Myst - It has come down to this, has it? It's been fun. The Glamour Girls have got me some money, but in the end, you girls do not measure up. Kathy, you're washed up and done as a wrestler. That's why I am sending you to ringside to be the new ring announcer. Learn your place young lady. Missy, you are being moved as well. You can interview people backstage and be a good little girl and let the wrestlers do the talking. Chastity, thank you for your service and you'll continue to be useful in your new role with the company as a partner to this girl.

Sammy Jo Johnson rolls herself into the ring with a chair in hand and clocks both Missy and then Kathy. She then stands with an evil grin on her face and nods towards Myst.

Myst - See what happened there? Sammy Jo knew how to play ball and now she's an active wrestler again. Sammy Jo is a real woman and not some fluff princess. Oh and to Kosmic Kitty at ringside there, you can be Sammy Jo's first opponent next week. She needs something to hit to get the ring rust off.

Sammy Jo nods towards Kosmic Kitty and tells her the chair will be visited on her next week.

Ricky Simms - I didn't see that one coming. Sammy Jo Johnson returns to the ring.

Henry Lesher - Tagging with Chastity though?

Myst - This is just my way of making sure we have the right people in the right positions around here. This is my way of keeping things in order. My word is law and the law is good.

"A Place For My Head" by Linkin Park plays again as she makes her exit and Sammy Jo helps Chastity to her feet, Chastity smiling as she clearly knew what was about to take place tonight.

Jordan Gibson is seen in her office throwing things at the wall. Her papers are everywhere as Wyatt makes his way into the office.

Wyatt Gibson - Are you... okay?

Jordan Gibson - Myst just took over my division! She just walked out there and changed everything!

Wyatt Gibson - But... that saves you some work.

Jordan shakes her head and hands a piece of paper to Wyatt. He reads it over and scowls.

Wyatt Gibson - Hey, at least they are wishing you well in future endeavors. I mean, that has to be good. Maybe you can open a restaurant or something.

Jordan Gibson - I can't believe I gave my time for months to this place and it ends tonight.

Wyatt Gibson - At least I am still making money, though. I can help support the family.

Jordan Gibson - For how long Wyatt? If she's cut me without a word to me, how long do you last?

Jordan storms out of her trashed office and Wyatt looks shaken by their exchange.

Tommy Purr vs. Shadow

"Stem" by Crossbreed plays as Shadow makes his way onto the stage and the crowd gives him a loud chorus of boos. He makes his way down the ramp towards the ring and tells the camera that M.R. did some nice work earlier tonight with a wink. Shadow then pulls himself onto the apron and then steps through the ropes into the ring as his music fades out. We then hear "Crazy Bitch" by Buckcherry as Tommy Putt makes his way onto the stage where the crowd gives him a loud ovation. Purr then makes his way down the ramp with Mrs. Robinson following close behind. Purr stops at ringside and has a few words with Shadow from there while referee Steve Blake tries to get Shadow to step back and allow Purr entry to the ring.

Ricky Simms - Divine Intervention has tried to stop the EVC rampage for weeks, but it seems to just keep getting worse. It has to be frustrating for someone like Tommy.

Henry Lesher - I have said it before and I will say it again. He picked the wrong side. That's what happens. You can't sign with the Clippers and expect to be the Lakers just because you're both in Los Angeles.

Purr pulls himself onto the apron and ducks a right hand from Shadow and then shoulder blocks him through the ropes. Purr then steps into the ring which allows the referee to call for the bell and then the two start trading rights and lefts. Shadow then knees Tommy in the gut and then rakes his eyes along the top rope before giving him a punch in the throat. Shadow then picks Tommy up and then slams him to the mat before standing on his chest for a four second count from the referee, then jumps off. Shadow then stands Tommy up, whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him a hip toss to the mat from there. Shadow applies a hammerlock on Tommy and the referee checks for a submission. Tommy refuses to submit to the hold and pulls himself towards the ropes. Tommy then manages to snag the bottom rope with his foot and that allows the referee to call for the break.

Ricky Simms - Tommy showing good ring sense here.

Henry Lesher - Well, regardless of whether or not he plays with the Clippers, he is still Tommy Purr.

Tommy takes a series of forearm smashes to the jaw from Shadow. Shadow then whips Tommy off the ropes and misses with a clothesline when Tommy ducks it and then he gives Shadow a German suplex to the mat, stands him up, whips him into the corner and then gives Shadow a dropkick in the corner buckle. Tommy then whips Shadow off the ropes and gives him a shoulder block that sends him down to the mat. Tommy then stands Shadow up and whips him through the ropes and out to the floor. Tommy drops and rolls himself out to the floor after Shadow. Tommy then whips Shadow shoulder first into the steel ring post. He follows that up by giving Shadow a snap suplex to the floor while nearby fans cheer.

Ricky Simms - Tommy is in complete control now.

Henry Lesher - As long as he flies solo, Tommy does great. The anchors he teams with weigh him down.

Tommy stands Shadow up and rolls him into the ring before rolling himself into the ring. Tommy then stands Shadow up, whips him off the ropes and then gives him a monkey flip right back out to the floor where Shadow crashes into the guard railing. Tommy then stands Shadow up on the floor and tries to whip him into the steel ring steps, but Shadow stops and then he reverses it, sending Tommy shoulder first into the steps. Shadow then stands Tommy up and rolls him into the ring before he rolls himself into the ring and goes for the pin. 1...2... Tommy kicks out. Shadow then stands Tommy up, whips him into the corner buckle and then gives him a fireman's carry into a side suplex from there where he again goes for the pin. 1...2... kick out by Tommy.

Ricky Simms - Great moves by Shadow to try and get the win here.

Henry Lesher - Tommy is going to need to dig down deep to win this one.

Shadow stands Tommy up, whips him off the ropes and then leap frogs him before giving him a hip toss as he comes off the ropes again. Tommy manages to land on his feet and then delivers an inziguri on Shadow which brings him down to the mat. Tommy then goes to the ropes and makes his way to the top. Shadow gets to his feet and turns to face Tommy. Tommy leaps off the top for a flying cross body, but Shadow catches him and then gives him an overhead suplex to the mat and then Shadow goes for the pin. 1...2... Tommy reverses the pin into a small package. 1...2...3! Tommy Purr gets the win over Shadow this week!

Ricky Simms - Tommy gets the win in a match that really could have gone either way.

Henry Lesher - I wish all of our matches were like that, Hoshi-free.

Tommy rolls himself out of the ring with his arm raised and then starts up the ramp towards the back while Shadow argues that his tights were held.

Ray Dees is seen in the locker room with Sammy Jo Johnson and Chastity.

Ray Dees - Ladies, what happened out there tonight?

Chastity - I had to lose some dead weight. The Glamour Girls were dying a slow death.

Sammy Jo Johnson - I have always been the best of the best, and I have sent Kathy packing before. Now, she gets to sit at ringside for every match, every week as I have had to do.

Ray Dees - You didn't enjoy being a ring announcer?

Sammy Jo Johnson - I am a wrestler, Ray. This company has miscast me as an announcer and a ring announcer. I have been at ringside long enough watching talentless whores like Kathy and Missy get ring time I should get.

Ray Dees - That's a little harsh.

Chastity - Is it, Raymond? I won the Diva title in my first match back after they failed so many times. They didn't lift a finger to help me keep my title tonight. I had to let them go so I could align myself with Sammy Jo here and... *smiles* get the band back together.

Ophelia marches in from the right side of the screen.

Ophelia - You see, Raymond, the Glamour Girls were never about Kathy Smith and Missy. The Glamour Girls were about beauty queens who broke the rules when they had to and I plan to be there for Chastity and make certain the result goes our way.

Chastity - Just think of this as the Glamour Girls getting back to its roots, Raymond. Poor Kosmic Kitty has to deal with that next week.

JC Michaels vs. The Moose

In place of entrance music for tonight's main event, we cut to the locker room where JC Michaels and The Moose are already fighting. Moose slams JC's head into a lock and JC answers with a jawbreaker on Moose and then grabs a chair and slams Moose in the chest with it. Moose answers with a kicks to the ribs on JC and then runs him face first into the door. Moose then pulls JC into the hallway and then picks him up and sets him on a table. Moose then climbs onto the table and then pulls JC to his feet. JC eye gouges Moose and then picks him up and power bombs him onto the table which sends them both to the floor.

Ricky Simms - My God, these two will kill each other before they even get out here.

Henry Lesher - This is what the show should be about, fighting.

JC gets to his feet and pulls Moose up and then pulls him down the hallway to the stairs which lead to the entrance. Moose then rams JC's head into the wall and then gives him a kicks to the back followed by a headlock into a vertical suplex in the hallway. Moose then slowly gets to his feet and then staggers his way up the stairs and finally emerges onto the stage. JC staggers up after him and referee Rob Rai calls for the bell as he sees both men from the ring. The referee charges out of the ring as JC and Moose trade punches on the stage, to ensure he can count a pin should one occur out here.

Ricky Simms - This is insane.

Henry Lesher - It's one more match with no Hoshi and actual fighting. I approve.

Moose ducks a wild right from JC and spins him around before picking him up and giving him an atomic drop. Moose then gives JC a clothesline to the stage and then puts the boots to him. Moose then stands JC up, picks him up for a power bomb, but takes a series of punches to the head from JC which cause Moose to drop him. JC then whips Moose shoulder first into the backdrop for the stage. JC then picks Moose up and runs him face first into a steel post supporting the big screen over the entrance. JC then gives Moose a running power slam to the stage and goes for the pin. 1...2... Moose rolls a shoulder out.

Ricky Simms - How did Moose kick out of that?

Henry Lesher - Have you forgotten his battles in the old CWA days? This man was closely tied to Leech for a long time and look how tough Leech was.

JC stands Moose up and pulls him down the ramp to ringside. JC then slams Moose's head into the ring apron and then picks him up and slams him to the floor. JC then goes to the ring steps, picks them up and goes back to Moose. Moose kicks the ring steps and they hit JC right between the eyes. Moose then quickly gets to his feet, pulls the ring steps away from a staggering JC and then uses the steps to ram into JC's face, bringing him to the floor and busting him wide open. Moose then places the steps on the floor and stands on them before pulling JC over. He sets for a piledriver on JC, picks him up and JC manages to pull himself down out of the air and then gives Moose a backdrop to the floor.

Ricky Simms - If that piledriver had hit, the match would be over.

Henry Lesher - That could have been a career ender right there, Rick.

JC Michaels then stands Moose up and rams his head into the ring apron and then gives him a bulldog onto the ring steps before going for the pin. 1...2... Moose rolls a shoulder out and leaves JC shaking his head. JC slowly gets to his feet as blood trickles down from a cut on his forehead. JC then stands Moose up and takes a thumb to the eye from Moose. Moose then gives JC a clothesline to the floor, then picks up the ring steps and jams them into his gut twice before tossing the steps aside and going for the pin. 1...2... kick out by JC.

Ricky Simms - How much will be left of either man after this one?

Henry Lesher - We might have two vacant titles when this is over.

Moose stands JC up and gives him a series of knife edge chops to the throat. Moose rams JC into the ring post outside the ring! JC slumps down on the floor, as Moose grabs a table and tosses it into the ring. JC is still a little out of it as Moose grabs a steel chair and throws it right at the back of JC's head! JC is crawling on the floor trying to get away from Moose, but Moose is stalking him following closely behind him.

Henry Lesher - Moose just won't let up!

Ricky Simms - He's the CWA Champ for a reason!

Henry Lesher - Let's not forget JC is the TV Champ for a reason too.

JC uses the barricade to help himself up as Moose goes to grab him. Moose whips JC towards the steps, but JC reverses it and sends Moose crashing into the steps instead! Moose looks to have cracked his head on the steps as JC picks up his limp body and rolls him into the ring. Moose looks to have busted his head open on the ring steps, and JC also is cut open. JC turns to the crowd and signals that it's all over as he sets up the table in the middle of the ring.

Henry Lesher - JC is saying it's all over!

Ricky Simms - He's got Moose right where he wants him!

JC picks up Moose, and hoists him up on his shoulders for the Samoan Stunner. Moose elbows JC in the face a few times trying to fight out of it. Moose slips out of it, and this time he gets JC up on his shoulders and quickly delivers the Moose Driver sending JC crashing through the table!!! Both men are down, when suddenly the lights go low again....

Henry Lesher - What the hell? Didn't Shannon and Myst pay the electric?

Ricky Simms - Just keep your hands out of my pockets this time!

"Midnight Rider" by The Allman Bros. plays over the PA again, as this time we see on the big screen the words "Midnight Rider," followed by a black mask with a western type design. With that a masked man wearing a cowboy hat, chaps and a cowboy vest comes walking through the curtain. He's also carrying a branding iron in one and and has a bullrope over his shoulder. The fans don't know quite what to think as they are trying to figure out what's going on.

Ricky Simms - Midnight Rider??? That looks nothing like Dusty Rhodes to me!

Henry Lesher - Uhhh....sure it does. He even got that birth mark removed and lost a bunch of weight.....or something.

Ricky Simms - I think we've figure out who "M.R." is though...

Henry Lesher - Nothing gets by you Simms....

Both JC and Moose are still down in the ring as the Midnight Rider makes his way to the ring. He climbs up the steps and climbs into the ring looking at both JC and Moose. The Midnight Rider turns his attention to JC and starts trying to drag him to his feet.

Henry Lesher - What is he doing to JC?

Ricky Simms - Maybe JC owes Dusty Rhodes money too?

Henry Lesher - Hmm....maybe.

The Rider drags JC to the corner and is saying something to him as Moose is getting to his feet. The Rider takes what looks like a rag out of his pocket and is holding it. Suddenly Moose spins him around and he drops the rag on the mat. Moose pushes the Midnight Rider who backs away. The Rider tosses one end of his bullrope towards Moose and motions for him to pick it up.

Henry Lesher - Now we're gonna have a bull rope match with Moose and Dusty Rhodes?

Ricky Simms - Will you stop it? That's not Dusty Rhodes!

Henry Lesher - Dude the Midnight Rider was Dusty Rhodes....

Moose picks up the rope and as he does the Midnight Rider pulls him towards him and clocks him with the cowbell! Moose is stunned for a second, when suddenly JC grabs the rag on the mat and stands up and sticks it in Mooses' face! JC is holding the rag over his face and he looks to be fading quickly.

Ricky Simms - Do you smell that?

Henry Lesher - Smells like ether....

Moose is now down on the mat as JC still is applying that rag to his face. And as quickly as he entered, the Midnight Rider exits the ring with his bullrope in hand. Moose looks to be out cold now as JC covers him. The referee counts 1....2....3!

Ricky Simms - This is disgusting! The Midnight Rider just helped JC win the match!

Henry Lesher - You mean Dusty Rhodes helped him win?

Ricky Simms - No! I don't know who that was under the mask, but he helped JC!

Henry Lesher - I don't know. I think he was gonna put JC to sleep with that rag, before Moose went after him....

Gary Barber, Eternity and Shadow all head to the ring to help JC as Moose still is unconscious in the ring. Gary goes to ringside and grabs the CWA Title and looks at it for a moment. Gary then slides into the ring and he stands over the fallen Moose. Gary drops the title on Moose's waist. Gary says something to Moose before attending to JC.

Ricky Simms - I don't know....has JC softened up Moose so much that he might be it bad shape at the pay per view??

Henry Lesher - Looks like it to me!

We fade to black on an image of a bloodied Moose and JC Michaels in the ring while the fans boo.
