TUESDAY, JULY 26, 2005 * COLISEE PEPSI * QUEBEC CITY, QUEBEC, CANADA

As the show begins, we see PWA owner Bryan Conroy sitting at his desk.

Conroy: Hello everyone, and welcome to PWA Frequency. We are here in Quebec City tonight, and it is going to be historic. As you all know, tonight, we will require an answer from Greg Tantalus as to which world championship he will challenge for on August 20 at Everlasting Epic. However, tonight, we will also see the other world championship match for Everlasting Epic decided. And it will be... classic. That's right. Tonight, the PWA will hold the first-ever World Wrestling Classic. Allow me to explain. It will start with a 21-man battle royal. The final three men left standing will advance. From there, the battle royal will continue amongst the three, with the winner granted one round of immunity. The two runners-up and the winner will take turns facing each other in one-on-one matches, with the runners-up needing to lose once to be eliminated, and the winner needing to lose twice. This will continue until there is one man left standing, and that man will challenge for the remaining world championship at Everlasting Epic IV. That is all.

From there, a video package airs, highlighting events that took place this past Sunday night when the PWA was Live From Rockefeller Center, including Greg Tantalus defeating Jackie Baccaro to retain his title shot, Romeo retaining the ORA title against Scythe, thanks to interference from Jason Calysto, and Hollywood Mike Griffin defeating Superstar Scott Hosemann to retain the PWA Championship, before helping to viciously beat Hosemann down in the aftermath. From there, "By_Myslf" by Linkin Park hits and the opening credits air as we are taken inside Colisee Pepsi in Quebec City, Quebec, Canada. The fans cheer wildly as a glorious pyrotechnics debut ensues, and we are sent to our commentators Victor Troy and Paul Ferrara.

Troy: Hello everyone and we just heard the big announcement from Bryan Conroy! Tonight, the first-ever World Wrestling Classic will take place, and I cannot wait!

Ferrara: Me either Troy! This should be one of the most exciting matches we have ever seen, and I cannot help but look forward to it!

Troy: All of the big names in the PWA will be involved, except for the reigning world champions and Greg Tantalus -- and of course, Showtime Damon Savage and Vladimir Vydrina, who have already signed on to do battle at Everlasting Epic in a boxing match.

Ferrara: That's right, Troy, and we will see both of them later tonight, as they sign the contract for that very match. What else do we have in store?

Troy: Well Paul, we will find out exactly who Greg Tantalus will challenge at Everlasting Epic, something that is sure to...

Troy is suddenly cut off by "Heaven's a Lie" by Lacuna Coil exploding onto the speakers and the fans cheering wildly as Greg Tantalus makes his way to the ring.

Troy: It looks like we're about to find out now!

Tantalus, fresh off his impressive victory over Jackie Baccaro two nights ago, walks down to ringside amidst the rabid cheers of the crowd, grabbing a microphone and stepping into the ring.

Tantalus: Well, I said I'd come here with the title shot still in my possession, and dammit, I've done just that!

The fans cheer.

Tantalus: But now, we have to get down to business. After winning the Symphony of Destruction last month, I was told that I had to select which title I was going to challenge for by tonight, July 26. Well, I've made my decision. And since we have a lot to do tonight, and there is a lot going on, with this World Wrestling Classic and all, I don't want to take up too much time. I'm just going to come out and say it. So, ladies and gentlemen, on August 20, at Everlasting Epic IV, Greg Tantalus will be challenging... Hollywood Mike Griffin for the PWA Championship!

Troy: What?!

Ferrara: What a moron! He just threw his shot away!

The fans cheer loudly at this, and before Tantalus can say another word, "Parabola" by TOOL explodes onto the speakers, and PWA Champion Hollywood Mike Griffin emerges from behind the curtain, in a white suit, with a microphone in hand, and powerwalks to the ring. Griffin gets right in Tantalus' face and whips off his tinted sunglasses, staring him in the eye.

Griffin: You know Greg, I've always known there was something wrong with you, but I never imagined it was this serious. Have you not heard a word I have said over the past few months? Are you not able to accept reality? You can't beat me! You're throwing your title shot away, pal! Now hey, if that's what you want to do, I have no problem beating on you again and putting you in your place one more time, certainly makes for an easier night for me, not having to worry about this World Wrestling Classic. But I would have thought you would have liked a chance to actually win a world title. You know, something that you haven't done since your joke of a one-month reign two years ago. Apparently I was wrong. Apparently you will be content just to appear in a main event, rather than have a shot to win one. Not that you really would have had much of a chance to beat Romeo either. At least though, with him, the whole audience isn't conditioned to expect you to lose to him, so they might have had false hope. You know, Greg, since I'm a nice guy and all, I'm going to give you one option. One last chance to back out. The decision isn't final yet. No paperwork has been signed. Back out of the match and choose to challenge the ORA Championship. What do you say?

The fans buzz and Tantalus, after thinking for a moment, grabs his microphone.

Tantalus: The answer... is NO! Griffin, I've lived in your shadow for way too long. You try to make me believe that I can't beat you... well guess what, Mike? I CAN beat you! Because I believe in myself! I believe in my abilities! I believe in Greg Tantalus! And when you believe in yourself, you can do anything! So, I may not have beaten you before, but come August 20, all of that is going to change! Because Mike Griffin, I'm coming for you and your championship! And when that's done, THEN I'll go after the ORA title!

Griffin and Tantalus stare down heatedly for a moment, until "War Machine" by KISS hits and Commissioner Kerry Cox makes his way to the ring with a purpose and a microphone.

Cox: First of all Greg, congratulations on making your selection. It should be an outstanding match on August 20 at Everlasting Epic. And next week, the locations will be announced for all four main events, so fans, be sure to stay tuned for that. But Greg, I just heard you mention something about the ORA Championship. And I think that's an excellent idea. Honestly, I don't know why we still have two championships floating around this organization. It's unnecessary. I say we unify them. And I say, let's start tonight! Tonight, we're gonna see Hollywood Mike Griffin defend the PWA Championship against Romeo, who will be defending the ORA Championship!

Troy: What?!

The fans cheer wildly, but mere moments later, Bryan Conroy comes storming through the curtain, followed closely by ORA president Helen Summers and Lt. Commissioner F. Anthony Annetta.

Conroy: Whoa whoa whoa whoa WHOA! Not so fast! Kerry, you may have a lot of power in this organization, but you do NOT have the stroke to sign a title unification match! Twice the champions means twice the revenue, and as long as I'm running the show, there will NEVER be a title unification bout! Secondly, we have the World Wrestling Classic tonight to determine a challenger to Romeo's ORA Championship at Everlasting Epic. The PWA title match between Mike Griffin and Greg Tantalus is now set for the show. So, if Romeo is to wrestle tonight, it will be in a non-title bout. And now that I think about it, I don't think Quebec City is deserving of seeing our two champions square off in an exhibition bout.

The fans boo mercilessly.

Conroy: So, we WILL see Romeo in action tonight. But it will be in a non-title match. And it will be against YOU, Greg Tantalus. That is all.

With that, Conroy and the troops exit.

Griffin: See Greg, tonight, you'll get the match you should have taken for Everlasting Epic. Not that the result will be any different. Because you're a loser, Greg. You will ALWAYS be a loser.

Tantalus: Griffin, I have one thing to say to you.

Tantalus moves in close and, suddenly, cracks Griffin in the jaw with a right hand, flooring him! The fans cheer wildly as "Heaven's a Lie" hits, leaving a furious Griffin behind as we take our first commercial break.

Troy: Tantalus vs. Griffin for the PWA title is set for Everlasting Epic is set!

Ferrara: And so is Tantalus vs. Romeo for tonight!

Troy: Unbelievable! We'll be right back!

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

As we return from break, a video airs on the Jumbotron.  As slow music lurks in the background, we see black and white images of a street, the camera slowly careening through.  As the music rises in tempo, the camera begins to cut through the streets quicker, picking up a shadowy silhouette of a woman.  As the camera follows, there is narration.

Woman:  Second by second.  Minute by minute. Hour by hour.  Time passes, but who really makes the most of what they've got?  Who seizes every opportunity?  Who has experienced all there is to experience?  Time keeps passing by, but where will you be at daylight?  Will you be ready when the new day arrives?

The camera then pans up as the figure continues to walk, still unable to make out facial features or any other distinguishing characteristic.  She walks off, the camera now behind her as a graphic appears on the screen:

"Morgan Day.  Coming Soon."

 As the video fades, we are taken to the dressing room of Jackie Baccaro and Vulture, who have just seen the video.

Vulture:  You have GOT to be kidding me!

Baccaro:  What do you mean?

Vulture:  Morgan Day.  Morgan DAY.  Is coming HERE.

Baccaro:  Yeah.  So?  You know her?  Who is she?

Vulture:  Oh I don't know.  Only one of the most lethal women to ever set foot on this planet perhaps.

Baccaro:  How so?

Vulture:  Listen Jackie, in all my years in the business, I've trained about a dozen people between tours and what not.  Of all that I've trained, there have been two that I knew were destined to shape the future of this business.  Those people were Jackie Baccaro and Morgan Day.

Baccaro:  You trained her?

Vulture:  Briefly.  I found her in Thailand at a muay-thai tournament.  She had just moved there from England to pursue a career and I was taken aback by her tenacity.  I stopped her afterwards, and convinced her to give wrestling a shot.  I trained her for about six months, she progressed faster than anyone I had ever seen in my life, and then we had a falling out.  She went back to England, and I never heard from her again.

Baccaro:  When was this?

Vulture:  Seven years ago.  Right before I entered CAW in 1998.  Naturally, having not heard a word from her in seven years, I assumed she left the business or didn't make it.  She was only 21 years old then, and already absolutely deadly.  I can only imagine what she's like now.

Baccaro:  So what's the course of action?

Vulture:  The course of action?  Get her on our side, of course.  An ally like that could have a hell of a lot in it for us.  But enough about that.  We've got the World Wrestling Classic to concentrate on tonight.  Tantalus may have gotten the best of you on Sunday night, but tonight, you have the chance to secure a shot at the ORA belt at Everlasting Epic.  Let's take advantage of it.

Baccaro:  I'm with you.

Vulture:  Alright, so let's get workin.

Vulture and Baccaro exit the room together and we take a commercial break.

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Three D-Bombs whistle down and explode on impact with the ramp as B.G.'s "I Want It" booms over the PA system. The crowd is ready for a big time matchup, and they are about to get one as Romeo comes out to a huge array of boos. The ORA Champion strolls down to the ring with a smug and cocky grin on his face, and proudly shows off his title belt, which is not up for grabs in the upcoming matchup.

Lacuna Coil's "Heaven's A Lie" plays next, and the crowd breaks out into raucous cheers as the silhouette of Greg Tantalus appears at the top of the ramp. The song kicks in and the pop grows as he walks out and makes his way down to the ring.

Troy: What an ovation for Greg Tantalus here tonight!

Ferrara: This match here was a potential Everlasting Epic main event; we're in for a big treat tonight!

* NON-TITLE MATCH:  ORA WORLD CHAMPION ROMEO VS. GREG TANTALUS *

Referee: Matt Hansen

Tantalus climbs into the ring and poses on the turnbuckles, but Da Playboi chooses not to wait as he jumps him from behind. Romeo yanks Tantalus from the turnbuckles, dropping him flat on his back before he unloads with a few big punches to the cranium. Matt Hansen gets in between them to break up the action, angering Romeo as he climbs off of Tantalus.

Romeo blows off the official and turns his attention back to Tantalus, but The Smooth One drops him with a running clothesline! Romeo gets up quickly and goes down from a hip toss, and Tantalus follows up with another one before flooring Romeo again with a dropkick.

Tantalus gets Romeo up and takes him down with a snap suplex before climbing up to the middle rope. He looks to drop a fist, but catches Romeo's boot on the way before dropping to the canvas.

Ferrara: I think I might have seen a tooth fly out!

Romeo gets Tantalus off the mat and whips him to the ropes before planting him with a big powerslam in the middle of the ring. He hooks a leg tightly for one...two...and Tantalus kicks out. Romeo gets Tantalus off the mat and executes another Irish whip, but it’s reversed. Tantalus drops his head for a back body drop, but Romeo stops in his tracks and nails him in the back before setting him up for Dre Day. He lifts Tantalus up, but he slips out of it and spikes Romeo's head into the mat with a DDT!

Troy: What a DDT; the tides have turned here!

Ferrara: And here comes our Lieutenant Commissioner!

F. Anthony Annetta runs down to the ring and hops up on the apron, prompting Greg Tantalus to knock him off with a right hand. The distraction gives Romeo enough time to recover and charge, but Tantalus ducks under and then clotheslines him out to the floor!

Romeo nearly lands on top of Annetta outside, but Tantalus can barely celebrate it before Mike Griffin zooms down the ramp and grabs him in The Culmination!

Ferrara: Hey! The champ is here!

Troy: And he just trapped Greg in The Culmination from behind!

Griffin squeezes tighter and tighter, leaving Greg Tantalus no choice but to tap out as Hansen throws the match out. Griffin releases the hold and stands over Tantalus after demanding a microphone.

Griffin: You wanna challenge me at Everlasting Epic Greg?! Fine! Just realize you'll suffer the same fate you just have, because when it comes to facing Hollywood, you'll always be a loser!

Griffin then picks up his PWA Title belt and holds it high as he stands over Tantalus, leaving the fans disgusted as we head to a break.

* WINNER VIA DISQUALIFICATION:  GREG TANTALUS *

-- COMMERCIAL BREAK --

Back from break, a red carpet is down in the ring, along with two chairs, one on either side.  Nick Cade is standing in the ring.

Cade:  Alright ladies and gentlemen, it is now time to make the main event 12-round boxing match between Showtime Damon Savage and Vladimir Vydrina for August 20 at Everlasting Epic for the Moscow, Russia portion official!  It's contract signing time!

The fans cheer loudly.

Cade:  Alright, let's introduce the first party, from St. Petersburg, Russia, being accompanied by his promoter Not That Rodney King, his wife Natasha, and his trainer and cornerman Jon Dulberg, The Angel of Death Vladimir Vydrina!

The fans boo as "Exorcism" by Theatres des Vampires hits the speakers and all the aforementioned people make their way to the ring.  All wearing business attire, Vydrina and his camp step into the ring and Vydrina takes a seat on the chair.

Cade:  And his opponent, from Pomona, California, the one, the only, Showtime Damon Savage!

With that, the Quebec fans explode as "Footprints" by G-Unit blasts onto the speakers and Showtime makes his way to the ring.  Unlike his opposition, Showtime comes to the ring alone, and does not appear to be taking his foes lightly.  Savage steps into the ring and takes a seat opposite Vydrina.

Cade:  Alright, gentlemen, the contract is on that table, ready for both of you to sign.  First, let's go over the agreed-upon rules.  This bout will be 12 rounds.  There will be no three knockdown rule.  There will be no standing eight-count.  You cannot be saved by the bell.  There will be a celebrity guest referee, and three celebrity judges, all to be announced at a later date, along with a celebrity guest commentator that has a background in boxing.  Each man will be allowed two corner men; a "cut man," and a trainer.  The cut men will be taken directly from the professional ranks, the trainers will be of each fighter's own choosing.  Vydrina has chosen Jon Dulberg as his trainer.  Showtime has not specified one.  Furthermore, the referee will not be allowed to stop the fight, as both men have requested that only their corner have the ability to call the fight.  Any questions?

There is no response.

Cade:  Alright, then let's get to this.

Vydrina grabs the pen first and quickly signs his name on the dotted line.  He aggressively shoves the paper and pen towards Savage.  Showtime picks up the pen and, glaring at Vydrina, signs his name down.  As soon as he has signed, smiles appear on the faces of everyone opposite him.  King grabs a microphone.

King:  Showtime, Showtime, Showtime.  I've always known you weren't very bright, but this might be the stupidest thing you've ever done.  Even though you agreed to the match two weeks ago, I thought you would have had the sense to back out of this while you still had the chance.  You're going to be mangled!  You don't even have a trainer for God's sake!

With that, Showtime gets up and rips the microphone away from King.

Showtime:  Two things.  First, all y'all will find out why they call me Showtime in Moscow when I whip this heavy bag with eyeballs' ass on August 20.  I never back down.  And second, I DO have a trainer.  Let me introduce him to you.  Come on down!

With that, "When the Spirit of the Lord" by Fred Hammond hits the speakers and the fans begin cheering loudly as Evander "The Real Deal" Holyfield makes his way to the ring!

Troy:  It's Holyfield!  It's Holyfield!

Ferrara:  What a coup!

Holyfield walks down to the ring and is given a microphone by Showtime.

Holyfield:  Chump, you beat my ass in March at Salvation, but you won't beat Showtime's ass at Everlasting Epic.  Thing is, in my head, I have the key to beating you.  I'm just not able to physically carry it out anymore.  This man is.  Showtime has all the tools physically.  He just needs the knowledge.  I am the man to give it to him.  So to all of you, get ready for an ass whuppin, because on August 20 in Moscow, it really will be Showtime!

With that, "Footprints" blasts onto the speakers and Showtime and Holyfield engage in a heated staredown with the Vydrinas, Dulberg and King, no one making a move, as we take a commercial break.
