IWA: International Wrestling Association
Chapter 31: Chaingang's Dilemma - Xtreme Revelation Week 1 August
The titantron showed a video of the IWA Champion, John Cena's match with CM Punk as he defended the title in the rematch. Just when Punk connected with a crossbody from the top rope, Cena used his strength to get up and put him on his shoulders for the FU and got the pin. Cena was about to celebrate when things turned dim on his situation as George Vegas showed him who he was going to face. It was The Big Show. The World's Largest Athlete came down to the ring and manhandled Cena before ending the assault with a Chokeslam, sending a message to the champion.
Xtreme Revelation introduced itself with a number of pyro setting off on the stage followed by overwhelming response to the people in the arena as they cheered. Cameras were now pointed to the legendary commentating duo of sports entertainment, Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler.
JR: "This is the barbeque sauce loving Jim Ross along with Jerry "The King" Lawler and we welcome you to another Xtreme Revelation. We are less than a week away from Road to Nowhere and things are heating up."
Lawler: "You got that right. Kurt Angle was granted a rematch to his last match with Edge at the PPV and it will be Hair vs. Medal match. The stakes couldn't get any higher with this contest between the two."
JR: "Also, the Big Show has come to the IWA when he attacked Cena and Chokeslammed him last week. He will be in his first match tonight with a tag team match teaming with Edge to face Kurt Angle and John Cena."
After announcing the main event, the fans saw the show's cameras go backstage where one half of the IWA Tag Team Champions, Alwyn Larson, was sitting in his locker room with his title sitting beside him. It was said that his partner Rob van Dam won't be able to be in action for a few weeks because of the attack by Hardcore Holly and Goldberg. George Vegas came in and said something to Larson.
Vegas: "You wanted to talk to me?"
Larson: "Yeah I'd like to talk to you. In six days the IWA Tag Team Championships will be defended and I won't even have a partner by my side at that night because of your great general managerial skills. You let Holly and Goldberg get away with assaulting me and RVD last week. It's like you are feeding me to a pack of --"
Vegas: "I'm gonna stop your little rant there Larson. I'm trying my best to get a solution on your problem. I suggest you relax before I help you find a tag team partner to substitute for Van Dam."
The general manager of Xtreme Revelation patted him on the back and went out of the locker room. Now in the ring was Lilian Garcia about to introduce the superstars about to battle it out on the first match.
Lilian: "This match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Colorado Springs, Colorado, weighing in at 275 lbs, Bobby Lashley!"
Hell Will Be Callin' Your Name by Mercy Fall played and Lashley came out to activate his pyro on the stage. He acknowledged the fans cheering for him as he neared the ring. After jumping on the apron, a shower of pyro activated from the turnbuckles just before he entered.
Lilian: "And his opponent, from Bombay, India, weighing in at 185 lbs, "The Guru" Sonjay Dutt!"
Guru sounded through the speakers as Dutt made his way to the ring. He didn't care of the booing but just bowed to the fans, maybe for the sake of getting a reaction. Dutt entered the ring to finally participate in the first match of the night.
Bobby Lashley vs. Sonjay Dutt
Dutt began the match by slipping behind Lashley and tried to do a waist lock takedown only to be backed to the corner. Lashley did a standing butt bump on Dutt before throwing him to the center of the ring. He then does a waist lock takedown on Dutt. After quickly floating over, Lashley puts a front facelock on his opponent. He gets Dutt on his feet while the facelock was still applied and did a standing hip toss. While Lashley was picking up his opponent to a vertical base, Dutt did a battering ram move and forced him to the second rope. Dutt stepped on Lashley's back and pulled on the top rope, choking him in the process. He however stopped it when the referee's count reached 4. Dutt now had a wrist lock on Lashley after doing a two arm wrenches and kicks to the side of his torso and he began to go to the top rope for the Sprinkler Elbow on the shoulder. The Original Playa from the Himalaya now connected with a falling neckbreaker when Lashley was shaking off the pain on the shoulder. He then jumped with his back turned for a moonsault on Lashley. Dutt followed it up by going to the top rope once again and landed on Lashley with a moonsault double foot stomp to the midsection. The referee counted the pin attempt which only reached 2 as Lashley kicked out. He was about to pick up Lashley but got a punch to the torso and was whipped to the ropes. Lashley tried a sidewalk slam only to receive a tilt a whirl DDT. Dutt applied his signature Camel Clutch on Lashley. With the two at the center of the ring, Lashley was sure to tap out to the hold. What Dutt didn't count on was the power and strength of his opponent as he managed to get to his feet and slam Dutt to the canvas. Lashley got up and clotheslined Dutt off his feet when he too was up. He bounced off the ropes and did another clothesline that flipped Dutt in various ways while he was in mid air. The Real Deal caught Dutt and threw him backwards for a belly to belly suplex. Dutt is still dazed as he missed a clothesline while Lashley executed an Exploder suplex on him. He waits for him to get up and lifts him in a vertical suplex position only to turn it into a one handed vertical while gesturing to the crowd making them cheer before dropping Dutt. He then waited in the corner, telling Dutt to get up for a Spear but only got leapfrogged over and got a Bombay Blast instead. He hooked the leg but Lashley rolled a shoulder up at 2. The Guru bounced off the ropes for his running Shooting Star Press but missed its target. Lashley attempted the Dominator on Dutt as he did a jack knife pin predicament with both feet hanging onto the middle rope for leverage which got him the victory.
Lilian: "Here is your winner, "The Guru" Sonjay Dutt!'
Dutt celebrated with his first victory in the company as Lashley watched on. He began bragging which got him on the bad end of a Spear from his opponent. Lashley also gave him a Dominator for cheating his way to the win before exiting the ring. After Dutt has left the ring, a new match was about to start.
Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, being accompanied to the ring by Brian Kendrick, from Austin, Texas, weighing in at 205 lbs, Paul London!"
Rocker was heard as London & Kendrick ran down the ramp and entered the ring. London climbed the nearest second turnbuckle and backflipped off of it.
Lilian: "And his opponent, being accompanied to the ring by Goldberg, from Mobile, Alabama, weighing in at 235 lbs, Hardcore Holly!"
How Do You Like Me Now hit while Holly and Goldberg walked down the ramp as opposed to his opponent's hyper activity. Holly would want to gain some momentum for their team before their IWA Tag Team Championship match, which could a handicap match when they injured RVD.
Paul London w/ Brian Kendrick vs. Hardcore Holly w/ Goldberg
London and Holly went into a grapple at the center of the ring as Holly easily backed his opponent to one of the corners. Just as he was about to back up, Holly came back with a back elbow to the face. He then landed two chops to the chest before whipping him across the ring harshly. He then has a side headlock on London and takes him down to the mat. London kicked out of it and he did a deep arm drag to his opponent. After doing another arm drag, this became the target of London as he did an arm wrench to it. London kicked him on the back while he had a wrist lock on him. He then went for another arm wrench but this time Holly came back with a knee to the gut and a knee lift. Holly stomped on London for a few seconds and bounced off the ropes for an elbow drop. He went for a quick pin only to get a 1 count. Holly did a snapmare on London and just kicked him on the side of the face. Holly picked up London and whipped him to the ropes for a dropkick but didn't hit him as London hung onto the ropes. London came in range for a low dropkick to the face as Holly tried to get up. As Holly was on all fours, London went for an Oklahoma roll pin but received a 2 count. London tried to whip Holly to the corner but got reversed as he instead was thrown into the turnbuckle. Holly charged but missed as London moved off the way. London climbed the top turnbuckle only to have his legs taken out causing him to hang on the turnbuckle in a tree of woe. Holly went out of the ring and pulled on London's head back while he hung in the corner while Kendrick tried to help but was repelled by Goldberg. Holly returned to the ring and bounced off the ropes for a dropkick to his abdomen. He pulled him away from the ropes and went for a pin but got a 2 count instead. The Hardcore King picked up London and hit an atomic drop and before he could knock him down with a clothesline, London repaid him with a spinning wheel kick. London kicked him on the legs a few times before ducking a punch for a leg lariat. He then did an inverted atomic drop followed by a hurricanrana. He hooked the leg only getting a kickout at 2. London bounced off the ropes but this got him caught in a full nelson slam. Holly went for the Hollycaust which was reversed by London as he slipped behind him for a superkick. The Excellence of Innovation then executed a tilt a whirl headscissors takedown when he bounced off the ropes. He tried to whip Holly to the corner again but got himself in it. As Holly ran towards him, he booted him on the face and went on to connect with the mushroom stomp. Just as he was measuring Holly for something big, Kendrick got wasted by Goldberg, who grabbed him and pushed him towards the steel steps. This proved to be a useful tactic when Holly delivered the Alabama Slam on a distracted London followed by the 3 count.
Lilian: "Here is your winner, Hardcore Holly!"
Holly gained momentum from this match and he, along with his partner, could win the tag titles from their one enemy and stress on the one opponent they could only face. Backstage, Alwyn Larson, with the two IWA Tag Team Titles resting on his shoulder, was still trying to find a substitute for his injured partner with the help of George Vegas.
Vegas: "Alright, there a few superstars lined outside and one by one they come in and tell you why they should be your "replacement" partner. Bring one in boys!"
The door opened and the first superstar was Petey Williams. He removed his shades and looked at the titles on Larson's shoulder.
William: "Little Petey Pump is the one you need for a partner. I've been tag team champ before I can tell you that The Maple Leaf Muscle is the only muscle you need to retain those titles."
Larson: "Not to be rude but you could bite off more than your size and I need a tag team partner not a trainer."
Williams left the office grumbling after hearing Larson insult him. Next up was The Great Khali along with his translator Ranjin Singh. Khali spoke first in his native Punjab tongue causing Vegas and Larson to look confused.
Singh: "The Great Khali says that he is the right man to partner with. Not only that he is strong, he is unstoppable as a speeding train and hard to fight against and he hopes you will choose wisely or you will regret it."
Larson, still looking up at the Punjabi Nightmare and just shook his head slowly. Khali began talking again and this time Singh stopped him from laying his hands from one half of the IWA Tag Team Champions. Another superstar came in and he was Tyson Tomko.
Tomko: "I know what you're thinking. Why should I pick this guy if there are other people in the locker room more deserving than him? Well you know what; those two people you already saw haven't taken out the IWA Champion John Cena. Think about that."
Larson: "Yeah…… It kinda makes me uncomfortable teaming with someone who recently have does that. When I need your "taking out the champion" services, I'll see you in a year or two. Next!"
The Xtreme Revelation general manager just put his hand on his forehead as Tomko left the office and the show went to a commercial break.
-COMMERCIAL-
Lilian: "This next match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Charlotte, North Carolina, weighing in a combined weight of 219 lbs, Cody Rhodes!"
Out to Kill played and Rhodes walked out to the stage being cheered by his fans. Rhodes would really like to avenge his losses weeks ago against The Miz and come back into contention for the title.
Lilian: "And his opponent, from Windsor, Ontario, weighing in at 235 lbs, "The Canadian Destroyer" Petey Williams!"
Canadian Destroyer blared as the chainlink headdress wearing Canadian made his way to the ring. Williams came down the ramp and hopes he will impress the guys at the back if he beats Rhodes tonight.
Cody Rhodes vs. Petey Williams
The two superstars locked up at the center of the ring as Williams pushed Rhodes to the ropes. Rhodes managed to switch positions after hitting the ropes and backed Williams to the corner to his left. He was about to do a clean break until Williams put his knee to his gut and smashed him face first into the turnbuckle. He began kicking him on the midsection while he was cornered. Williams whipped Rhodes top the ropes for a back body drop but Rhodes reversed it into a sunset flip which only got a 2 count. Just as Rhodes got up onto his feet, Williams clotheslined him off it as quick as a hiccup. He then does a vertical suplex on Rhodes before going for a pin that only reached 2. The Maple Leaf Muscle now grounds Rhodes with 2 side slam backbreakers and tries to make him submit to a hold applying pressure to the back. Rhodes was trying to fight back with forearms to the back of his opponent only to be driven back to his knee and the hold reapplied. The crowd rallied behind the young second generation superstar as he used his knees to get out of the submission. He then drove one more knee to the midsection for a Russian Legsweep. Rhodes bounced off the ropes for a knee drop to the face of the Canadian Destroyer. Rhodes whipped Williams to the corner but was reversed. Williams charged but received a back elbow to the face. Rhodes immediately climbed up to the top turnbuckle for a diving crossbody and went for a pin but got a 2 count. He then went for an Irish whip but this was countered into a cradle DDT. Williams placed him hanging on the top turnbuckle and proceeded to do the O Canada Nut Squash, irritating the fans enough when he stopped, they chanted "USA! USA! USA!" He then attempted a back suplex which Rhodes escaped for a falling neckbreaker. After a punching combination, Rhodes ducked a clothesline for a bulldog off the ropes. The son of the American Dream attempted the Silver Spoon DDT, formerly known as the Cod-DT, but it was countered into the Canadian Destroyer which was reversed into a small package that lead to the victory.
Lilian: "Here is your winner, Cody Rhodes!"
Rhodes rolled out of the ring with a win after weeks of losses as he made up the ramp slapping hands with the kids seated on the front row. Now backstage, Larson was still deciding who his partner was going to be with Vegas keeping order.
Larson: "Man Vegas. I don't know what your fetish on big bulky muscular men is but I hope things can be resolved in this substitution for my partner."
The Californian remarked before one superstar entered and it was someone who has more experience in tag team wrestling more than anyone, it was Matt Hardy.
Matt: "Larson, I've seen your matches and I was impressed with your teamwork with Rob Van Dam. Me and RVD are good friends and good partners, I'll be glad to be your partner for your match."
Larson: "And I'll be insulted if you don't. I have my first pick Vegas. It'll be a pleasure to be teaming with the great Matt Hardy."
Vegas: "Before this whole thing can be agreed on, I have one more superstar outside waiting. It wouldn't be polite to just decline him of the opportunity."
Larson: "Alright. Fine. Bring in the next one."
Matt and Larson shook hands and exited the office as another entered and it was Larson's former rival, Randy Orton.
Orton: "Can't say I'm impressed. From beating me, the greatest third generation superstar in this industry, to bagging tag team gold. Your legacy has already started and it would be a shame if it ended in the hands of Goldberg and Hardcore Holly. So how about it; you and me as tag team partners?"
Larson: "Aren't you supposed to be chasing after the IWA Championship or something? Since you're the "greatest third generation star" in this industry then shouldn't you already have that world title in the bag? Or maybe it's because you need numbers on your side."
Vegas: "Cooler heads prevail guys and I don't need the two of you bashing each other's head on the wall."
That sentence was probably the last thing the two heard when all of the sudden Orton slapped Larson and this provoked him into attacking Orton. The two were trading fists when Vegas tried to intervene only to get knocked on the jaw by Larson. Good thing the GM could take a punch as security arrived and separated the two from doing more damage.
Vegas: "That's enough! I have had it with you Larson. You want to find a substitute for RVD, fine. You have one now. In the form of you, Randy Orton! Orton will not be the official champion, no; he will only be a representative for RVD until he comes back. Larson's decision to team with Matt Hardy is null and void, Orton's the pick and nothing else will change it. In the mean time, you two have a tag team match next so hurry to the ring, now!"
The two superstars were let go by the security and Larson was the first to go. Vegas handed the other IWA Tag Team Championship with Rob Van Dam's name on it to Orton as he headed out to the ring.
Lilian: "This tag team match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 320 lbs, Test!"
This Is A Test was heard and the Canadian walked down the ramp, looking for another W for the W section in his résumé. Test entered the ring and scowled at the booing fans while waiting for his partner.
Lilian: "And his partner, from Jacksonville, Florida, weighing in at 294 lbs, Tyson Tomko!"
Screwed hit then Tomko came out to the stage. After being turned down to become Larson's partner he would like to prove him wrong in this match and at the same time improve his career.
Lilian: "And their opponents first, from Los Angeles, California, weighing in at 230 lbs, he is one half of the IWA Tag Team Champions, Alwyn Larson!"
Everyday Combat played as Larson went down to the ring to face his opponent. He wasn't too happy the GM's decision with him joining forces with a guy who enjoys punting people on the head. As he was standing at the ring's apron, his partner's theme started.
Lilian: "And his partner, representing the other half of the IWA Tag Team Champions, from St. Louis, Missouri, weighing in at 245 lbs, Randy Orton!"
Voices blared through the speakers followed by Orton walking out to the stage and down to the ring as he was booed by the fans. Orton isn't glad that someone who disrespects him is going to be his partner and surely there would be tension between the two.
Non-title Match:
IWA Tag Team Champions Alwyn Larson and Randy Orton vs. Tyson Tomko and Test
Larson decided that he was going to start off the match as Tomko represented his team. They started off with a collar-elbow-tie-up as Larson went behind for a waistlock. He was having trouble getting it fully on as Tomko tried to prevent it. Tomko nailed him on the face with his elbow and whips him to the ropes for a clothesline only to have Larson duck under it and kick the side of his leg. Larson continued kicking on its side before being pushed into his corner. Tomko charged towards Larson but it was evaded as this had him collide with the turnbuckle. Just as Larson gained control of the match, Orton tagged himself in forcing Larson to stay in the corner for a while. Orton pounded on Tomko's back while he had him in a front facelock and downed him with a European Uppercut. He does another European Uppercut and whips him across the ring for a dropkick. Orton puts his opponent in a front facelock as he walked to his corner where Larson gets a tag and kicks Tomko in the vulnerable midsection. Larson was landing punches on his opponent and tried to bounce off the ropes into him but was caught with a tilt a whirl backbreaker. Tomko drops a leg across his neck before dragging Larson to their corner for a tag to Test. Test does two elbow drops before going for a pin but only got a 2 count. He then lifted him up in a gutwrench position as he jumped and dropped on his knees for a backbreaker. Test now stepped on Larson's back with both feet as the referee counted for him to stop which he did at 4. The Punisher tried to pick up Larson but instead received an uppercut to the chin. This stunned Test for a little while as he went for a boot to the face. Larson dodged this and nailed Test with a spear after bouncing off the ropes. He went for a pin but Test kicked out at 2. Larson whipped Test into his corner but managed to stop and then took Orton out with a hard punch. Test then moved out of the way of a charging Larson as he hit the turnbuckle. Orton had recovered from the cheap shot as he got up on the apron, Test tried to carry Larson to the center of the ring while he reached out and slapped Orton across the face, either he did it to tag him or he did it intentionally but whatever intention he had it was a tag. He entered the ring as Larson leveled Test with a superkick. Orton now executed his signature stomp pattern before doing a knee drop to the face. He went for a pin as it only reached 2 when Tomko interrupted the count. Orton now tried to do an Irish whip on Test towards the ropes but was reversed and Test did a full nelson slam. He tags in Tomko and the Insurance Policy hoisted Orton over his head with a military press and just drops him. Tomko was about to finish the match when he tries a front powerslam which is countered with Orton's inverted facelock backbreaker. Orton crawled towards his corner and Larson, hesitant to reach out for the tag, waited in it as Tomko managed to get up. Larson finally took his arm and extended it and was tagged in. He ducked under a clothesline for a hard shot on Test followed by a calf kick to the face. Larson came off the ropes with a swinging neckbreaker on his opponent. The Californian Crusader pushed on for momentum as his back, which was focused on by their opponents, weakened him a little. He pulled down the top rope as Test came in charging but came out to the floor. Larson did a STO Backbreaker on Tomko followed by a float over DDT. He went to the top rope as Tomko lied on the canvas and Larson did a double jump moonsault but his opponent dodged. Tomko aimed for Larson's head with his running big boot but it missed and Orton did a hotshot move on him making him vulnerable for the Larson Shot. Orton stopped Test from entering the ring by pulling him out as Larson pinned Tomko.
Lilian: "Here are your winners, the IWA Tag Team Champions, Alwyn Larson and Randy Orton!"
The referee handed Larson his title as he raised his arm and was surprised Orton didn't try to stab him in the back in the match as well as Orton helping him. Test was frustrated he lost the match as he grabbed a steel chair from ringside and entered the ring. He was about to nail Larson with the weapon but Orton came in and RKO'd the Impact Player. The Legend Killer left the ring with the championship in his hand looking back on his "partner" and went backstage. Larson also exited the ring and went to the back as the fans cheered.
Suddenly Crank It Up played as Big Show appeared on the stage and began walking down the ramp. He entered the ring and assaulted the two beaten superstars. Show performed his cobra clutch backbreaker on Tomko and knocked out Test with his right knockout hook. It wasn't enough for him as he picked up the two and simultaneously Chokeslammed them. He grabbed a microphone and began to address the fans
Show: "What you see before you is what my abilities can do to a person. My power will leave anybody unconscious. John Cena, you can't handle my power last week as I left you knocked out. You may hold that IWA Championship now but when Road to Nowhere passes I'll be the new IWA Champion."
-COMMERCIAL-
The ring was set up with a glass coffee table, a couple of seats and a red carpet and two microphones as one of the security guys acted as a bouncer at ringside. I'm Comin' hit as Montel Vontavious Porter came out and activated his fire pyro. The bouncer let MVP in at ringside and then he entered the ring to get a microphone.
MVP: "MVP is in the ring and that can only mean one thing, big things poppin', little things stoppin'. So sit down relax and enjoy the view cause the VIP Lounge is for people like me, people better than you! The first ever VIP Lounge here in this company being hosted by Xtreme Revelation's Most Valuable Player. My guest tonight is one of the most charismatic superstars in this brand and probably the oldest. He is also called a lot of names like "the Heartbreak Kid", "the Icon", "The Showstopper" and more. Please welcome Shawn Michaels!"
Sexy Boy played and Michaels came out to an ear bleeding ovation. He slapped hands with a few fans before being allowed inside the ringside area. Michaels entered the ring and took a microphone and sat down.
MVP: "Shawn, you have been in this industry for about two decades, even more than that for that matter. How does it feel to see such a young superstar with talent and charisma that it could surpass yours? Take me for example; I am the Franchise Player of Xtreme Revelation. I am Half Man, Half Amazing while you, you're just you."
Michaels: "The only thing I see in front of me is someone who lets his words speak better than his in ring actions. When was the last time you won a match MVP?"
MVP: "Hey, I'm the host of this show so I'm the one who asks the questions. Is it true that you only helped Chris Jericho win his No.1 Contendership against me because you can't beat Mr. Kennedy?"
Michaels: "No. Obviously that's not true. Everybody here in this arena knows that I can beat Mr. Kennedy. I'm not the one to complain but he just won't give me one more shot at his title."
MVP: "Okay. One more thing before we end the VIP Lounge. You see yourself as a main eventer and yet you're not challenging the champion for the title. While you don't have a match at Sunday's event, how about I prove myself to the world as an up and coming main eventer by challenging you to a match."
The Showstopper looked at the fans that were booing MVP and smiled. It looked like he was about to refuse MVP's challenge to a match as he turned away only to nail MVP with Sweet Chin Music. Michaels grabbed his microphone and said…
Michaels: "You're on."
With that his music began playing and exited the ring. MVP put a hand to his aching chin after that superkick, trying to see if there were other damages to it. The cameras went to the announcer's table after those events.
Lawler: "Another match for our big upcoming pay-per-view JR. Our match card is going to be, what you call, a slobberknocker."
JR: "Indeed it will King. It will be added to the event just about to happen in 6 days. Let's talk about the event shall we. BLOCKBUSTER has matches like "The Monster" Abyss going against King Booker. After putting the pesky Queen Sharmell out of the side of King Booker, the Ruler of the BLOCKBUSTER will be looking for vengeance."
Lawler: "The United States Championship will be on the line as the champion Jeff Hardy goes one on one with the self-made millionaire, JBL. Hardy retained against JBL and Chris Hero in a Triple Threat weeks ago but will the same results arise?"
JR: "Tag Team warfare is about to his the boiling point as Cryme Tyme faces the duo of Matt Striker and Big Daddy V, who now calls themselves "The Class". Striker and Big Daddy V have been on a roll and Cryme Tyme has been going downhill since losing the International Tag Team Championships. Will they rebound or will The Class force them down more?"
Lawler: "Darkness will rise into the ring with The Undertaker battling the new New Frontier Champion Benedict Rockwell for the New Frontier Championship. Ever since siding with John Morrison, Rockwell has been experiencing a major personality change. Will this change bring The Deadman down or will Rockwell rest in peace?"
JR: "International Championship hangs in the balance as John Morrison and Batista battle it out for their main event. Batista would like to add more gold around his waist after Morrison cost him his New Frontier title to one of his associates. Will Morrison continue his title reign or Batista emerge as the new champion?"
Lawler: "Now on the Xtreme Revelation side. Xtreme Rules match. The Miz defend his Xtreme Generation Championship against Eddie Kingston. Miz has been champion since the title's inception and would like it that way. Eddie's challenge may bring him the title soon."
JR: "Our IWA Tag Team Championships will be defended as Alwyn Larson and Randy Orton faces Hardcore Holly and Goldberg. The recent attack on Rob Van Dam caused him to be out of action and Larson reluctantly found a substitute in his former rival Randy Orton. Can the two work together in this match of will Holly and Goldberg win the titles?"
Lawler: "Olympic Gold Medal versus Hair. Kurt Angle versus Edge. A match between two superstars with a memorable history against each other and they definitely know what the other can do. Will Angle win back his medal and avenge his loss on their Hair vs. Hair match years ago or will Edge maintain his hold on the precious medal?"
JR: "The IWA Championship will be on the line with the champion John Cena going one on one with the World's Largest Athlete, The Big Show. Show has already told the fans that he will leave Cena down and out at the event but we have seen Cena fight his way out of disadvantages. Will he retain the title or will Show become the new IWA Champion? Let's head backstage where John Cena is about to be interviewed."
We see the IWA Champion John Cena standing beside Todd Grisham for his interview before his main event match.
Grisham: "John, ever since winning the IWA Championship you have not encountered a man as big, as large as The Big Show. How do you feel about that?"
Cena: "Well, not better since that right hook connected with my jaw. Big Show can have his size as his advantage. I have battled Big Show in the past and most of them with me coming out on top. All I can say is if you want some, come get some."
The Doctor of Thuganomics walked off the set with the crowd cheering him on. The cameras went to the ring where the pre-match introductions was about to be said.
Lilian: "This main event tag team match is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Toronto, Ontario, Canada, weighing in at 250 lbs, Edge!"
Metalingus played as smoked started coming out to the stage and Edge emerged behind the smoke with Angle's medal worn around his neck. He walked down telling people he owns the medal only to get him more boos.
Lilian: "His tag team partner, standing at 7 ft tall, weighing in at 441 lbs, The Big Show!"
Crank It Up was heard followed by pyro going off at the stage area. Show walked to the stage and down the ramp before entering the ring. He held up his large hand as he was booed by the fans.
Lilian: "And their opponents, first from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 220 lbs, he is the only Olympic Gold Medalist in professional wrestling, Kurt Angle!"
Gold Metal sounded when Angle came out to the stage and activated his pyro. As he walked down the ramp, he stared at the gold medal in Edge's possession. He pointed at Edge for being a coward and would love to make him tap tonight.
Lilian: "His tag team partner, from West Newberry, Massachusetts, weighing in at 240 lbs, he is the IWA Champion, John Cena!"
The Time Is Now hit and the fans stood and cheered the IWA Champion as he saluted the fans before going down the ramp. He entered the ring along with Angle as he rose up his title to the fans watching. He gave the championship to the referee before the ring bell rang.
Kurt Angle and IWA Champion John Cena vs. Edge and Big Show
Edge and Cena started off for their teams and went into a grapple and Edge put Cena in a side headlock. Seconds after it was applied, Cena pushes Edge to the ropes but gets knocked down by a shoulder block. Edge bounces off the ropes as Cena leapfrogs over him and downs him with a hip toss. Cena punches Edge a few times before dragging him into his corner where he smashed Edge's face on the turnbuckle and tagged on Angle. Edge got out of Cena's clutches when Angle came in and Edge immediately tagged Show into the match. Just as Show was about to grab Angle, he went behind for a waist lock only to be broken by an elbow to the side of the head. Show pushed Angle into an open corner and lands a couple of back elbow shots to the face. He then shushes the crowd before slamming his hand on Angle's chest for a forehand chop. Show does it one more time before throwing him with a hip toss. Show tags in Edge and holds Angle and starts getting punches from Edge. Edge went for an Irish whip but this was countered into a waistlock takedown from Angle. Angle whipped Edge into an open corner and charged but he moved out of the way as Angle managed to stop before hitting anything. Edge used this to do a back suplex after landing a forehand to the back of the head. He then chokes Angle using the bottom rope and stopped when the referee almost reached the 5 count. Edge tags in Show who points to Cena while walking on Angle's back. He then drops an elbow on the back before going for a pin which only was a 2 count. Show then tosses Angle out of the ring like he was a crash test dummy and looks at Cena. Show began distracting the referee as Edge smashed The American Hero on the security barrier but Cena came to the aid of his partner, attacking Edge with right hands. Show came out of the ring and threw Cena into the steel steps back first. He then lifts up Angle and throws him into the ring as Cena tries to intercept him only to get a headbutt. Show went back into the ring only to receive a European Uppercut from the Olympic Gold Medalist. He kept on the attack with punches and uppercuts before Show caught Angle on the throat. He was about to Chokeslam but Angle kicked him on the midsection and raked his eyes. Angle landed punches and went off the ropes which got him a big boot to the face from the 441 pound Giant. He then tags in Edge who measures Angle and he kicks Angle on the midsection. The Master Manipulator was about to for the Edgecution but it was reversed into an overhead belly to belly suplex. Angle ducked under a clothesline for a triple German suplex on Show when he got in. He then managed to tag in Cena and the roof came off this joint. He took down Edge with a clothesline and a back elbow and was fired up. Cena dodged Show's clothesline and nailed him with a few punches and downs him with Angle for a double clothesline over the top. The Champ connected with a spinebuster on Edge. He went for a one handed bulldog but it was evaded by Edge and executed the Edge-O-Matic. Edge went to the second rope and leveled Cena with a missile dropkick. He went for a pin but got a 2 count when Angle interrupted it. Angle whipped Edge to the ropes and went for a back drop only to get kick to the chest. Edge went for a Spear but Angle dodged it and instead it hit Show on the apron. Out of nowhere, Cena came back in with a belly to belly side suplex. He signaled for the Five Knuckle Shuffle and it lands on target, on Edge's face. He was about to FU Edge when Show had Edge's foot in his hands and won't let go. Angle helped Cena by getting Show off the apron. The Rated R Superstar escaped the move and performed his Edgecution. Edge waited in the corner for the Spear as Cena tried to get up and charged when he turned only to hit Angle who was arguing with the referee. Cena hoisted him up for the FU when all of the sudden Show connected with his right knockout hook right on the jaw. This was all Edge needed for the pin.
Lilian: "Here are your winners, The Big Show and Edge!"
The fans booed at the winners as they raised their arms following their win. Show looked at the IWA Champion and was grinning. They exited the ring with Show saying "Your title is as good as mine". Cena looked at his challenger while he was going up the ramp, clutching his championship as the show ended.
