SEGMENT 1: INTRODUCTION:
A video package airs, highlighting events that took place
last week, with Hollywood Mike Griffin informing Lauren Tantalus that he would
sell her contract to the highest bidder by the end of the night, and then
Lauren going to the Bellagio Hotel and Casino, only to find that her contract
was sold… to her ex-boyfriend Vulture and his protégé Jackie Baccaro, ending
with Vulture and Baccaro laughing sadistically, and with Lauren crying,
realizing that she is now screwed. The opening credits then roll as
Ferrara: Neither do I, Troy, but I can’t
say that Lauren didn’t have it coming.
She screwed Vulture over at Everlasting Epic, and now, it looks like
she’s gonna pay for it. I am afraid,
however, that those guys may take it overboard, and I’m hoping I’m wrong there.
Troy: And folks, another big development from last
week saw British newcomers Paul Epton and John Wolfe pin the Tag Team Champions
the Lost Souls in a stunning upset. Next
week in
SEGMENT 2: RINGSIDE:
The commentary is cut off as the D-Bombs explode and
B.G.'s "I Want It" begins. There is no luxury car or bevy of beauties
this week, but the boos are still the same for Romeo
as the PWA World Heavyweight Champion makes his way to the ring.
Da Playboi climbs into the ring and slings his belt over his
shoulder before grabbing a microphone from ringside.
Romeo: As usual, I'm the one
with the microphone, so if you continue to boo me, I'll just talk over you.
(Crowd boos) Have it your way. Alright, last week I came out here and tried to
give my championship address, when I was rudely interrupted by Camieko. So now
that she has been taken care of, I'll continue. You know, when I got up to The
Real World suite in The Palms last week, the first thing I did was turn on
Frequency. And while I was watching the rest of the show, I saw something that
really hit home to me. It was Vulture and Jackie Baccaro leaving a club on the
strip and Vulture called Jag "an ingrate." I have hung out with
Vulture in Vegas before and it’s about time some of those things have gotten
onto TV. But in listening to what he had to say, I have one thing to say to you
Vulture. You are a liar! (Crowd cheers) That’s right. I called Vulture a liar.
And the reason I am is because Jaguar is not just an ingrate. That punk is
a straight up fraud! (Crowd boos)
Romeo: Oh yeah, you boo, but you all don't know Jag the
way that I know him and that Vulture knows him. All you see is him come
through the curtain and smile while he gets his ass beat all over this ring.
You don't know the real deal. This guy has ridden coattails of some of the
greatest athletes in this business. We won eight tag team titles together, who
do you think was the reason for that? He and Vulture won a few together, who
was the reason for that? He barebacked his way into every favorable situation
and he benefited from it. He never thought about me, he didn't think about The
Hot Boy$. Jaguar was and will always be all about Jaguar. And that is why
I dropped him on his dome and laid him up in a hospital bed. The guy
is a total sham and it was my pleasure to expose him. I didn't have
anything handed to me, I worked my ass off to get
this. You see this people, this belt is what hard work
does for you. He wants to claim that I took shortcuts my whole career, well I say I'm the one who cut his career short!
The crowd boos loudly before bursting into cheers as "With
You" by
Scythe walks down to the ring in black jeans and his new Modern
Day Samurai T-Shirt, and Romeo looks on as he takes his own mic and asks for
his music to be cut.
Scythe: I wasn't sure I heard you right Romeo. Was it me,
or did you question Jaguar's honor earlier?
Romeo: No I didn't question it. I aired him out.
Scythe: Aired him out, huh? Well I think what you said out
here was a load of crap! (Crowd cheers) Jaguar is a guy who wears his heart on
his sleeve each and every single night he steps between these ropes, but you
wouldn't know about having heart would you?
Romeo: You're saying that I don't have--
Scythe: Shut your mouth! You're damn right I'm saying you
have no heart. You turned your back on everyone Romeo. I can understand if you
and Jag had some problems, but you handled that the wrong way just like you
handled things with Camieko the wrong way last week. There was no excuse for
what you did to them. Jaguar is one of my best friends in this business and I
fully intend to make you pay for what you did to him and Camieko. Ever since
losing the PWA Title, I've been sidetracked in battles with Bishop Cross. But
as we saw last week, I ran him outta town, and with him gone, my focus has
shifted. I want that title back, and I intend to hit you where it hurts the
most. I am challenging you to a match on April 9 at Requiem for the World
Heavyweight Championship! So if you want to test somebody's honor, take my
challenge and do it in
Romeo: Back up a second here Scythe. You come out here and
talk about who your friends are? You know something man, you and I were good
friends too. But I learned how you were. Once you won this title, I saw
right through you. You were a great champion, but let’s rewind things a bit.
Let's go back to Everlasting Epic 3, shall we? You retained the title by
beating GI Jew and Solomon in a triple threat and Jaguar got a win over Mike
Griffin. Bryan Conroy made a decision to award Jag a title shot, which I'm not gonna lie about. He deserved to have it. But it was me that
nearly ended Mike Troha's career. The same Mike Troha who had
been a thorn in the side of the world for years. You would think that
would bump me up in the rankings, but oh no. You see Scythe, you and Jag had an
amazing match at Walking Wounded. Everyone was on the edges of their seats. But
where was my shot at? It wasn't just Jaguar bro, it was you too. When
you were on top, you never gave me what you knew I had earned, because you
knew that you would end up the same way that Jaguar is right now. You
claim to be so honorable, but you've never done a damn thing for me Scythe, and
I won't do anything for you now. (Crowd boos) But don't get me wrong
people. I accept your challenge for Requiem, but it’s just to use you Scythe.
On that night in
"I Want It" hits again and
Romeo drops the mic before exiting the ring, leaving Scythe looking on with
anger as we take a commercial break.

SEGMENT 3: MATCH 1:
JADE VS. DANA CHAPMAN:
Referee:
Dan Martin
As we return from the break, a brunette woman is standing in the
ring. The people at the
Ferrara: Hey, it’s rude to announce a woman’s weight!
With the crowd already cheering, “Zerospace” by Kidneythieves
suddenly blasts over the speakers and the fans go insane for Jade. They offer
her a fantastic ovation as she steps out to greet the crowd. Jade begins her
march down the aisle, prepared to begin her match with the newcomer. Jade steps
into the ring while Chapman paces back and forth in it. As the music dies down,
the referee nods to both competitors before calling for the bell and starting
the match.
Troy: Alright, it’s a match between
Jade and newcomer Dana Chapman, and I for
Jade and Chapman meet in the center of the ring and Jade holds out
her hand. Chapman looks down at it before looking out
into the crowd, who encourage her. The newcomer then shakes her hand in
acknowledgement and hopes of a good match, much to the delight of the crowd.
Jade and Chapman take a few steps back thereafter before locking up hard in the
center of the ring. Jade manages to force Chapman back into a corner, where the
referee calls for a clean break. The former Women’s Champion obliges and
releases the hold, allowing Chapman to regain her composure. She comes out of
the corner, locking up with Jade once more, but Jade begins to push Chapman
back into the corner. However, Chapman knows better the second time around and
turns tables on Jade, slamming her back hard into the turnbuckle! Jade stumbles
out of the corner and Chapman plants a boot into her stomach. With Jade hunched
over, Chapman gets her into position and lifts her up and over her head, taking
her hurling into the mat with a beautiful suplex!
Chapman goes for the cover, but Jade kicks out shortly after one.
Jade stumbles back up to her feet, but Chapman is back on the attack. She
rushes forward in an attempted clothesline, but Jade has it scouted and ducks
underneath the outstretched arm. With Chapman’s back exposed, Jade holds a knee out and brings Chapman down hard on it
with a backbreaker! The newcomer writhes about on the mat in an attempt to
clutch her back, but Jade brings her back up to her feet. Before Jade can
further her advantage though, Chapman hastily breaks free from her clutches.
She blasts Jade in the face with a furious right, and the two begin to battle
back and forth. However, Chapman attempts a second clothesline, this time
catching Jade with all of it! The crowd bursts into cheers!
Jade stumbles back up to her feet, but Chapman goes after her once
again. However, the veteran Jade won’t allow any more punishment and seizes the
opportunity, hitting the Side Effect out of no where! Jade hooks the inside
leg! One! Two! Three!
Ferrara: And with a sudden Side
Effect, Jade has beaten Dana Chapman!
The referee raises Jade’s arm as “Zerospace” plays once again in
the background. Chapman slowly rises to her feet, and seeing this, Jade walks
over to the newcomer. After several moments of awkward silence between the two,
Jade offers her hand. There is no hesitation this time from Chapman though;
only a smile. She shakes Jade’s hand, and the crowd cheers at this sight of
good sportsmanship. Chapman leaves the ring shortly after and heads up the
ramp, while Jade takes a moment to grab a microphone from the side.
Jade: I have to say that I’m impressed. Dana Chapman can
go far in the PWA. I wholeheartedly welcome her and the great matches that she
could bring in the future. But there’s one other thing that I’d like to get off
my chest. Keiko Ishida, don’t you think for a second that I’m through with you
yet. I want to get that belt back, and I want to do it at Requiem!
She waits for a few moments, as if expecting Ishida to immediately
respond, but no one arrives.
Jade: I didn’t think that you’d come out, but that’s just
fine. I expect an answer next week, Ishida. I’m challenging you. Put the
Women’s title on the line against me on April 9th, and I’ll give you a match
that you won’t soon forget.
“Zerospace” plays one more time as Jade puts the microphone down
before stepping out of the ring. The crowd cheers as she takes her leave, and
we go to a commercial.

SEGMENT 4: JUMBOTRON:
Back from commercial, a video package airs on the
Jumbotron, set to “Stockholm Syndrome” by Muse that gives us a deeper look at
the two newcomers Paul Epton and John Wolfe, who defeated Tag Team Champions
The Lost Souls last week in a non-title match to earn a shot at the gold next
week in
The package then ends and we see Speed Demon and Reaper watching it
on a monitor backstage. They have their
championship belts over their shoulders, and they don’t look happy.
Demon:
Seem pretty confident don’t they.
Reaper: I think it’s time we shut them
up next week and prove them to be the flukes that they were.
Demon: Sounds good to me.
SEGMENT 5: BACKSTAGE:
A camera is now backstage in the locker room of The Legacy, where Justin
Schenck is addressing its members.
Schenck: Guys, I know what your feeling. Believe me, I
understand your concerns. I had no idea Briggs was even alive still, much less
in the building to attack you last week.
Giles: He cost me the title Justin!
Schenck: I realize that Darrin, and you will get the title
back, but it all starts with tonight. You have Dawkins and Renegade, both
singles champions here. Realize what is upon us men, what better way to take both
of those belts and bring them into The Legacy than by beating them tonight?
They would be forced to give us title shots then.
Hosemann: But what about Briggs, Justin?
Schenck: For the last time guys,
do not worry about Briggs. Nobody has seen him all day and I already spoke with
Jamal, you know, the head of PWA security. I slipped him a few bills and
he has assured me that Briggs will not get past him, no matter what. So let’s
go out there and do what we do best.
The mood turns positive and upbeat as Giles and Hosemann rise from
their chairs and exit the room. The Naturals follow and Schenck follows them as
they all begin to make their way towards the ring.

SEGMENT 6: MATCH 2:
PROGRESSIVE CHAMPION RENEGADE & INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION PAUL DAWKINS
VS. SUPERSTAR SCOTT HOSEMANN & DARRIN GILES:
Referee:
Billy Vargas
"Piggy Bank" by 50 Cent begins, bringing a loud set of
cheers from the crowd as Lee Palmer begins the introductions.
Palmer: The following tag team contest is scheduled for
one fall! Introducing first, from
Renegade walks out to a very favorable ovation and smiles from
ear-to-ear as he shows off his newly won Progressive Championship.
Renegade rolls into the ring and poses with his belt as
Sevendust's "Black" takes over.
Palmer: And his partner, from
South Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, weighing 245 pounds, he is the PWA
International Champion, Paul Dawkins!
Dawkins steps out to another energy charged ovation, and he also
looks ecstatic as he sports his newly won International Championship.
Ferrara: And another short-lived
champion, once Jon Dulberg gets his rematch.
Earshot's "Control" begins next, bringing waves of boos
about as Palmer finishes up.
Palmer: And their opponents,
representing The Legacy, being accompanied to the ring by Justin Schenck
and The Naturals, the team of Darrin Giles and Superstar Scott Hosemann!
The Legacy comes out in its entirety, looking unified as ever as
they all march to the ring.
Giles and Hosemann get into the ring, locking eyes with their
opponents. Giles demands Renegade to start the match and both men do so as the
bell rings. They lock up and Giles immediately connects with a sharp knee to
the midsection. Giles follows up with a big overhand punch and then drops
Renegade with a European uppercut.
Giles lifts Renegade up and drives him back into a corner before
Irish whipping him to the other side. Giles then charges forward, but Renegade
catches him with two boots to the face! Giles gets up, but is driven down with a DDT! Renegade covers for a two count before tagging
Dawkins in.
The International Champion steps into the ring and goes after
Giles, but he is hit with an elbow to the gut and floored with an elbow to the
face. Giles tags Hosemann, and the veteran nails Dawkins with a stiff kick to
the chest before lifting him up and dropping him with a suplex. Hosemann covers
for 1-----2----and Dawkins powers out.
Hosemann gets Dawkins up and shoots him to the ropes. He ducks his
head for a back body drop, but Dawkins scouts it and drops him with a Scud
Missile legdrop! Dawkins shakes the cobwebs and then turns it up on Hosemann by
whipping him into the ropes and scoring with his own back body drop! Hosemann
gets up and reels into a corner, where Dawkins charges and blasts him with a
Stinger Splash! Hosemann staggers forward and drops flat on his face as Dawkins
signals for The M.O.A.B.!
Dawkins gets Hosemann off the mat, but Giles rushes in. Renegade
cuts him off and ducks a Giles clothesline to turn him around and slam him down
with a quick F-U! Dawkins then re-focuses on Hosemann, lifts him up, and drills
him with The M.O.A.B.! Dawkins makes a cover, but The Legacy has seen enough as
they all pounce on Dawkins!
Billy Vargas calls for the bell as Kris Anthony and Justin Schenk
stomp away on Dawkins. Greg Price does the same to Renegade as Giles and
Hosemann slowly recover. The bell sounds repeatedly as the entire Legacy goes
to work on the champions. With the hard camera set in the middle of the ring,
nobody notices as a man in the second row stands up and goes right over the
barricade, removing his oversized hat to show that he is Briggs!
Briggs climbs into the ring, and all five Legacy members create a
mass exodus out of the ring as the big Canadian runs them off. "Black"
hits again as Briggs raises Dawkins' and Renegade's arms as The Legacy scowls
at them from the ramp.
WINNERS VIA DISQUALIFICATION AT
-- COMMERCIAL BREAK #4 --
SEGMENT 7: BACKSTAGE:
We return from commercial to find International Champion Paul
Dawkins, Progressive Champion Renegade, and Liz Rush backstage, cooling down
from the tag team match that just took place.
Dawkins:
Man, did you SEE that out there?
Renegade: I can’t believe it man. Briggs is back. I wouldn’t wanna be the Legacy right about
now.
Rush: I know! I saw that on the monitor and couldn’t believe
what I was seeing. Can’t say I’m upset
about it though.
As the trio continues to converse, a silence falls over the room when
Vulture and Jackie Baccaro enter.
Baccaro:
Congratulations on your little victory, Paul. Well done.
Dawkins: What are you doing here,
Jackie?
Baccaro: Oh nothing. We just thought we’d extend our heartfelt
congratulations to both of you on that DQ win.
Surely you know my manager here.
Dawkins: We’ve met. Listen Jackie, I know you two are here for a
reason, so just spit it out already.
Baccaro: Do you want to, or should I?
Vulture: The floor’s yours,
Giacomo. Go to it.
Baccaro: Paul, I’m here to formally
challenge you for the International Championship on April 9 at Requiem. Let’s not beat around the bush. You know I’m deserving of a shot. I pinned GI Jew and Salvation and, hell, I
pinned you at Revival. So what’s it
gonna be? Will you be a man and accept
the challenge?
Dawkins: Without hesitation. You want it at Requiem? You’ve got it. Me and you, International
title on the line. You know,
lately, you don’t have any problem crediting Vulture for bringing you to this
point, and thanking him for the influence he’s had on your career, but you seem
to have forgotten the guy who was standing by your side for a year as half of
the most dominant tag team this company has ever seen.
Baccaro: And you seem to have forgotten
that I carried your ass. You’d never be
wearing that belt now if it weren’t for me.
Dawkins: Whatever Jackie. You can think whatever you want while you and
your manager are out treating women as objects and playing with people’s lives like
they were toys. You both make me, and
everyone else in this room, absolutely sick.
Baccaro is infuriated by the comment, but Vulture holds him back.
Vulture:
You know what, Dawkins? You’ve
got a big mouth. You say that everyone
in this room has a problem with us, that we make them sick? So how about next week, Renegade, you and Jackie
Baccaro, one-on-one in
Renegade: That’s fine by me. It’ll be my pleasure to shut both your asses
up. And if you get involved, Vulture, I won’t
hesitate to take you out.
Vulture: (chuckling) The only thing funnier than that
is the thought that you might actually believe that you were ever anywhere NEAR
my league. Take it easy, gentlemen. You’ve got some work to do.
Vulture and Baccaro then walk off as we head to
commercial.
