Chapter 29: Showcasing Power - Xtreme Revelation Week 4 July

Xtreme Revelation started off the night with the opening pyro on the stage as its icon was shown on the titantron. The fans were cheering their lungs out after the blast but turned to booing as the general manager, George Vegas came out with a barrage of security. Vegas got a microphone in hand as he entered the ring while the security surrounded it.

Vegas: "I'm in a very good mood tonight. You know why? John Cena was manhandled last week that's why. That's what happens to people who get their hands on the general manager. Since I'm in a giving mood, I'll grant Cena that title rematch. It will be the IWA Champion John Cena going one on one against CM Punk. One more thing, if Punk wins he can pick his next challenger but he can't pick Cena and if Cena wins then I'll pick his opponent for Road to Nowhere."

With the announcement done, he exited the ring and went up the ramp to the locker room with the security guards. Backstage, Edge was about to be interviewed as he still had Kurt Angle's Olympic gold medal around his neck.

Grisham: "Edge, why did you steal Kurt Angle's medal from him last week?"

Edge: "This gold medal you see around my neck symbolizes what Angle did in the Olympics, what he accomplished for the people of America. Angle won this in a very important event in his life. I want him to feel how I did when I lost the IWA Championship almost 2 months ago. I want him to beg for a shot at me for his medal until I give him one and when I do he will be lying in that ring beaten and battered."

The Rated R Superstar then left the set after saying what was in his mind. Now to the ring, Lilian Garcia was about to introduce to start the first match of the night with the introductions.

Lilian: "This match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Cameron, North Carolina, weighing in at 236 lbs, Matt Hardy!"

Live for the Moment played and Matt came out as he was cheered by the fans in the arena while he went down the ramp. After not being able to participate in a match last week, Matt now he plans to get another win.

Lilian: "And his opponent, from Raleigh, North Carolina, weighing in at 215 lbs, Gregory Helms!"

It's Time hit as Helms got out to the stage and raised his arm while talking smack to the people near the ramp. Helms entered the ring and removed his entrance wear before beginning the match with someone he has fought many times before, even 2 weeks ago.

Matt Hardy vs. Gregory Helms

Matt and Helms circled the ring before attempting a lock up which Helms took to his advantage as he kicked Matt in the midsection before taking him down with a side headlock. Helms only got a few moments on the hold as Matt got out of the hold and does an arm drag on his opponent. Matt did an arm wrench before whipping Helms to the ropes for a shoulder block. He bounced off the ropes and lands another shoulder block then runs off the ropes which got him taken down with a hip toss. Helms now had a side headlock on Matt once again taking him down. While the side headlock was in, Helms capitalized by punching him on the side of the head. Matt now turned it into a pinning predicament that only got a 1 count.

Helms went for a cover and the count was stopped by a kick out from Matt at 2. It was over as said by Helms as he attempted the Nightmare on Helms Street which was reversed into a reverse DDT. Matt went to the second rope and showed the fans his V1 gesture before launching himself with a legdrop bulldog on Helms. Matt was telling helms to get up and face him as he stalked Helms with the Twist of Fate which was again avoided as Helms turned it into a straightjacket Russian Legsweep. Helms now bounced off the ropes for the Shining Wizard but it was dodged by Matt who performed the Side Effect. Matt then capped off the match with the match winning Twist of Fate followed by the pin.

Lilian: "Here is your winner, Matt Hardy!"

With another W in his win column, Matt rolled out of the ring to celebrate his win. Helms gripped his head in disappointment as he lost again to Matt like 2 weeks ago. The cameras went to the announcer's table with Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler.

JR: "Good evening folks. You just got a taste of what is in store for you tonight. Announced last week after Xtreme Revelation at our website, Chris Jericho will team up with Shawn Michaels to battle MVP and the Intercontinental Champion Mr. Kennedy later tonight."

Lawler: "Jericho would love to exact revenge on MVP after he distracted him in his title match with the champion. Michaels is in this mess because he helped Jericho pick up the win on MVP 2 weeks ago at Projekt Mayhem."

JR: "Also announced in out website, Hardcore Holly and Goldberg were granted an IWA Tag Team Title Match at Road to Nowhere after letting them do his dirty work."

Lawler: "The IWA Tag Team Champions have their hands full with them. Holly and Goldberg's power will be put to test against RVD and Larson's speed at the PPV which is one week away."

After the announcements, the night continued with a tag team match with Lilian introducing the teams.

Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, weighing in a combined weight of 501 lbs, Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch!"

The duo's western theme was heard and they walked down the ramp while the crowd booed them on their way down. Cade threw his hat down to the floor while Murdoch removed his entrance wear as their opponents were to be introduced.

Lilian: "And their opponents, weighing in a combined weight of 385 lbs, Paul London and Brian Kendrick!"

Rocker 4th Version sounded and London & Kendrick ran down the ramp as fast as they can to slide inside the ring. The two cruiserweights climbed the second turnbuckles to acknowledge their fans at ringside before backflipping to the mat and slapping hands.

Paul London & Brian Kendrick vs. Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch

The two team's representatives were London and Murdoch and the two put on a grapple at the center of the ring where London slipped behind his opponent with a waistlock but Murdoch got out of it with a wild back elbow to the face.

Lilian: "Here are your winners, Paul London and Brian Kendrick!"

With the high flying team picking up the win, they exited the ring before Cade & Murdoch managed to attack them. Backstage, the fans were cheering as John Cena arrived in the arena and he was in a serious mood tonight. He passed the GM's office as security blocked the doorway if he had the idea to run in and pound Vegas. After the scene seen backstage, the cameras went to the ring for more action.

Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 320 lbs, Test!"

The Most Ruthless Competitor in the world walked down the ramp to his theme down to the ring. After earning a win from a distraction from a fellow Canadian, he plans on proving himself by winning on his own.

Lilian: "And his opponent, from Colorado Springs, Colorado, weighing in at 295 lbs, Bobby Lashley!"

Hell Will Be Callin' Your Name by Mercy Fall hit and Lashley came out on the stage to activate his pyro. He walked down the ring as opposed to his opponent's crowd reaction where he was being cheered by the fans. Lashley jumped onto the apron to turn on his fireworks before the match.

Bobby Lashley vs. Test

Lashley and Test were in a collar-elbow-tie-up as Lashley turned it into a waistlock takedown using his amateur wrestling background to his advantage. He then floated over for a front facelock on Test but when they got up he was backed to the corner. Test did a few shoulder thrusts before whipping Lashley to the corner across the ring. He then charged towards him but got a back elbow to the face instead. Lashley now bounced off the ropes for a shoulder block that took down Test. With Test getting up in the corner, Lashley ran towards his direction for a running shoulder thrust. He then did 3 more thrusts to Test before whipping him across the ring and went for a corner clothesline but Test moved out of the way instead. Test then attacked Lashley's back with his forearm and shoulder thrusts to the back. He then lifted Lashley off his feet for a side slam backbreaker. Test does another backbreaker before going into the pin but got a 1 count. He then goes out of the ring and stretches Lashley's back using the steel ring post as he pulled on his arm and leg until the count of 4 from the referee. Test then goes back into the ring and whips Lashley to the corner across the ring with authority. He then picks him up and does an inverted facelock backbreaker on Lashley to wear down his back. The Impact Player then applies a full nelson while Lashley is in a seated position and puts a knee against his back to add more pain. The fans rallied behind Lashley as he began to stand and fight out of the hold but Test hit the back of his head with a forearm and slammed him with a full nelson slam. He went for a pin but got a 2 count when Lashley put a shoulder up. The Punisher then hoisted up Lashley on his shoulders for the Test Grade but Lashley slipped behind him for a German suplex. Lashley then ducks under a clothesline from Test and throws him with a fallaway slam. He then bounced off the ropes but was caught in a bearhug by the Canadian. With the pressure being applied by Test, Lashley then began pounding on Test's head and managed to get out of the hold. The Real Deal then backed Test to the corner and drove his knees to the midsection of his opponent before whipping him across the ring for a corner splash. He then goes for another one but Test put his boot up to stop him followed by a catapult backbreaker to the corner.

Test then pulled him out and rolled him up with the second rope in hand as he successfully pinned Lashley without being spotted by the referee.

Lilian: "Here is your winner, Test!"

Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Jefferson County, Alabama, weighing in at 245 lbs, Mike Speedway!"

Code of the Road was heard as the former professional racecar driver walked down the ramp for his match. He slapped hands with the fans near the ring and entered the ring to see who he will face.

Lilian: "And his opponent, from the Isle of Samoa, weighing in at 350 lbs, the Samoan Bulldozer, Umaga!"

Virtual Voodoo sounded and the unstoppable behemoth made his way down to the ring to face his opponent and more likely destroy him.

Mike Speedway vs. Umaga

Speedway now was circling around his opponent as Umaga looked and charged but got an uppercut from him instead. Umaga now threw Speedway in a corner and continued pounding him until the referee had to back him up. He then whipped Speedway to the ropes where he would gain the advantage via a low dropkick to the leg. Speedway kicked the sides of each leg before being pushed to the ropes as Speedway hung onto the ropes. Umaga charged towards him but Speedway pulled it down causing him to go over the top rope and down to the floor.

Umaga now picked up Speedway and delivered the Samoan Spike for the victory.

Lilian: "Here is your winner, Umaga!"

Umaga picked up the win but without getting a fight out of it as Speedway put up his best effort. Backstage, MVP was about to be interviewed by Todd Grisham before their match starts.

Grisham: "There has been a question in everybody's mind MVP and they are asking why you helped Mr. Kennedy retain the Intercontinental Championship?"

MVP: "Everybody here knows that I am the Franchise Playa and a playa like me needs bling. Mr. Kennedy and I made a deal if he retains he will give me a shot at the Intercontinental Championship. So now the least thing I want right now is Shawn Michaels in my business along with Chris Jericho. Nobody even needs those has-beens around here anymore. Jericho and Michaels will see why I'm ballin'!"

With that the highest paid entertainer in sports entertainment left the set for his match that was up next. Now in the ring, Lilian was about to introduce the two teams.

Lilian: "This next tag team match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Manhasset, New York, weighing in at 226 lbs, Chris Jericho!"

A countdown was shown from 5 that was counting down to 0 and pyro went off as Break Down the Walls played as Jericho was seen doing his stance on the stage before walking down the ramp. Jericho would like to get some retribution after MVP cost him the Intercontinental title last week.

Lilian: "And his tag team partner, from San Antonio, Texas, weighing in at 225 lbs, The Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels!"

Sexy Boy blared as Michaels came out to the stage and activate his fireworks as the fans cheered for him wildly. Michaels would now have to help Jericho fend off the two arrogant and loudmouthed superstars after inserting himself to even the odds at Projekt Mayhem.

Lilian: "Their opponents, first from Miami, Florida, weighing in at 252 lbs, Montel Vontavious Porter, MVP!"

I'm Comin' hit as MVP came out from the tunnel at the stage, sporting his 305 diamond necklace and his MVP bling around his neck, following him activating his pyro. MVP would have to prove his mettle against two of sports entertainment's greatest after helping Kennedy retain his title against Jericho.

Lilian: "And his tag team partner, from Green Bay, Wisconsin, weighing in at 243 lbs, he is the Intercontinental Champion, Mr. Kennedy!"

Turn Up The Trouble Remix began and the Intercontinental Champion made his way to the ring with his title wrapped around his waist as him and MVP entered the ring and there was no trash talking before the match as the two clobbered their opponents from behind.

Chris Jericho and Shawn Michaels vs. MVP and Intercontinental Champion Mr. Kennedy

MVP and Kennedy were continually attacking their opponents but the referee inserted himself as he backed the two partners away from the corner. The two tried to continue pounding on Jericho and Michaels but they countered and gave their own beating ending with Kennedy and MVP tossed out of the ring. Michaels did a somersault plancha on MVP as Jericho got Mr. Kennedy with a baseball slide. Michaels rolled in MVP inside the ring as Jericho and MVP were now the legal men of the match.

Michaels bounces off the ropes and clotheslines MVP's boots off. He drags him MVP to their corner and picks him up as Jericho gets the tag while Michaels holds MVP vulnerable for a chop. Jericho suplexes MVP at the center of the ring as Kennedy tries to get his attention which he successfully does. MVP charged towards Jericho but gets a drop toe hold to the second rope. Jericho then signals for his leapfrog body guillotine as he jogs in place before bouncing off the ropes but MVP was playing possum as he clotheslined him. He then tags in Kennedy who begins stomping on Jericho and stopped before the referee reached the 5 count. He then slams Jericho to the mat with a scoop slam and drops a knee to the face and went for a pin but got a 2 count. Kennedy does a senton to keep Jericho on the mat and tags in MVP. MVP picks up his opponent and drives his knee to Jericho's gut before doing a snapmare and lands a hard kick to the back. After kicking him on the chest, MVP bounces off the ropes for the Ballin' Elbow. He went for a pin but got a 2 count when Jericho kicked out. The King of Bing whipped Jericho to an open corner hardly as he measured HBK for the Player's Boot which was evaded. Jericho does a chop block on MVP while he was stuck in the corner. Y2J charges towards him once again but gets a snap overhead belly to belly suplex and causes his leg to hit the lower turnbuckle. The Franchise Player now drags him to the center of the ring and goes for the pin but Michaels breaks it up at 2. MVP tried to go for a shin breaker on the leg but it is reversed into a kick that is caught by MVP but it turns out to be an enzuigiri.

MVP tried to save his partner but ends up being tossed out by Michaels. He then goes up to the top rope and dives down with an elbow drop on the heart of the Intercontinental Champion. The fans were going wild as Michaels "tuned up the band", aiming at Kennedy but MVP stopped him by tripping him from the outside. Jericho comes to the aid of Michaels by pushing MVP to the steel ring post. Kennedy sneakily rolls up Michaels as he watched the events outside the ring and the champion gets the 3 count.

Lilian: "Here are your winners, Montel Vontavious Porter, MVP and the Intercontinental Champion Mr. Kennedy!"

Kennedy rolled out of the ring as Jericho tried to break the pin but failed and it cost them the win. The Green Bay Gladiator helped up his partner and went up the ramp to celebrate their victory after the match. Backstage the IWA Champion John Cena was about to be interviewed.

Grisham: "John, last week you were on the receiving end of a beat down from 5 handpicked superstars of the GM and now you have to defend your title against CM Punk. The stipulation of the match is that if you win George Vegas will choose your new challenger while if Punk wins he can pick his next contender but cannot pick you. Do you have any thoughts regarding this?"

Cena: "Todd, am I the kind of man that backs down from a challenge? Am I the kind of man that runs away scared when faced with high odds? Am I the kind of man that just gives away this IWA Championship?"

Grisham: "No."

Cena: "Whoever Vegas is going to pick for my next challenger, he is gonna be facing the toughest man who held this title. But to my match, CM Punk has proven his worth last time and in this rematch I'll be pulling out all of the stops to retain."

With that The Champ went off the set to prepare for his title defense later that night. Next off was The Miz with Tazz in the office of GM Vegas.

Miz: "You wanted to see the Chick Magnet?"

Vegas: "I have bad news champ and it's regarding the Xtreme Generation Championship."

Miz: "What about it? I guess Jack Evans wants a rematch or you're declaring me the No.1 Contender?"

Vegas: "No. Someone wants a shot at your title. He'll be here in a moment. Oh wait, he's here."

The door closed and saw a grinning Eddie Kingston stand behind the Xtreme Generation Champion. Miz gulped and looked over his shoulder to see his new challenger.

Eddie: "I'm gonna take that title off your title at Road to Nowhere."

Vegas: "Since the title is named "Xtreme", its standard rule is that the match is competed in Xtreme Rules."

Miz: "Xtreme Rules? I can do Xtreme Rules, that's why I am the Xtreme Generation Champion. See you at Road to Nowhere."

The Demon of Desire left the office as Tazz stared down Eddie in the eyes before leaving. The cameras went to the ring as the next match was about to start with the introductions about to start.

Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 245 lbs, Randy Orton!"

Voices by Rev Theory soundedthroughout the arena as Orton made his way down the ramp. The cold, calculated superstar entered the ring focused as he climbed the second rope to do his signature pose.

Lilian: "And his opponent, weighing in at 323 lbs, Kane!"

A loud, explosive pyro set off as Slow Chemical was heard while Kane walked down the stage. Kane entered the ring via top rope and adjusted his glove before the match started.

Kane vs. Randy Orton

Orton and Kane circled the ring before heading into a lock up where Orton slips behind Kane and pounds on his back with his forearm. He then back him into the corner chest first, Orton starts to focus on the leg of the bigger man only to get a back elbow drop Kane. Kane now tossed Orton into the corner where he was earlier and begins to beat him up. He whips Orton across the ring twice to the same corner before hitting him on the back of the head with a forearm. Kane now does a snapmare on Orton and bounces off the ropes for a big dropkick to the face followed by a cover for a 2 count. Kane runs off the ropes for a jumping legdrop onto Orton after the pin. He then picks him up with a two handed choke up into the air but Orton gets out of it by raking Kane's eyes and does a standing dropkick. This only makes Kane bounce off the ropes as he goes for a clothesline which is ducked and gets a dropkick to the leg. Orton takes the leg and drops a few elbows to it followed by a series of kicks to the calf. He then drags him near the apron where he uses the apron like a weapon by slamming Kane's leg on it. He then kicks the leg one more time before slamming it against the steel ring post. Orton re-enters the ring as Kane tries to get up in the corner where Kane fights back with an uppercut to the third generation superstar. Kane now still on the offense with rights to Orton before he whips him to the ropes but it was reversed into an inverted headlock backbreaker. Orton then starts doing the Randy Orton Stomp before finishing into a knee drop to the face and was adding more damage to the leg. The Legend Killer now applies a single leg Boston crab on the worked leg of Kane. Kane began to crawl for the bottom ropes so that the hold can be broken but Orton broke the hold and attacked Kane before he could reach it. Orton begins to pound on the chest of Kane with his forearms and Orton got up to expose his knee for another knee drop but it missed its mark. Kane now managed to get up and hit Orton with a throat thrust and clothesline him over the top rope. He followed his opponent as he punched him as hard as he can and whipped Orton to the steel steps. Orton was rolled into the ring by Kane and he tried to get in the ring but Orton stopped him midway with a knee lift to the head. He then dragged Kane in a facelock while his feet hanged from the middle rope and Orton drilled Kane with his elevated DDT. Orton went for the pin but Kane managed to roll a shoulder up at 2. The Legend Killer was now stalking his opponent, slamming his fists on the canvas as Kane tried to stand. Once he got to his feet, Orton attempted the RKO but Kane pushed him in midair to prevent it.

Kane managed to lift up Orton to the air but he managed to turn it into a RKO in midair. Orton went for the cover for the 3 count.

Lilian: "Here is your winner, Randy Orton!"

The referee raised the arm of the winner as Kane attempted to get up. He then saw an opportunity to kill another legend and it would be added to his list of victims. Orton backed up to the corner behind him as he set his sights on Kane's skull while the commentators pleaded to not do it. Somehow his conscience, if he has one, stopped Orton from doing the punt as he just exited the ring and walked up the ramp. The cameras went to the announcer's table for a brief moment.

JR: "Well that's a surprise. Orton didn't punt a superstar while he was vulnerable. What do you think about that King?"

Lawler: "Could just a ploy for something. But that doesn't matter now; the IWA Championship will be on the line at the main event!"

JR: "Everybody is excited about that. Before we could get to that, another match has been made for the next pay-per-view. The Xtreme Generation Championship will be on the line when The Miz defends against Eddie Kingston."

Lawler: "They faced each other once and that had Tazz interfere in Miz's behalf and cost Eddie the win. The IWA Tag Team Champions will be in action tonight against the team of Deuce N' Domino after this commercial break."

Lilian: "And their opponents, weighing in a combined weight of 467 lbs, they are the IWA Tag Team Champions, Alwyn Larson and Rob Van Dam!"

Lilian: "Here are your winners, the IWA Tag Team Champions, Rob Van Dam and Alwyn Larson!"

Though the two earned the win, they were attacked from behind as soon the match was over and the attackers were Hardcore Holly and Goldberg.

Team 3D and Larson were helped to the back but Van Dam had to be stretchered out.

JR: "My god! That was a brutal attack by the challengers. They don't deserve a title match if they are going to attack the champions from behind with steel chairs."

Lawler: "They're just softening them for the title match so that it would be easy pickings for them at the match."

JR: "I don't know if they picked the right thing or the smart thing to do but I'm sure as hell it's not the right thing."
