Fireworks and music fill the air. Mickie James' theme hits as she makes her way down to the ring.
JBL: Hello everyone, I'm John Bradshaw Layfield and this is my announcing partner Joey Styles.
Joey: Hello, everyone I'm --
JBL: That's great Joey, but here comes Mickie James, the Knockout that will be battling for the Womens' Title from our HCW brand.
Joey: That's right, she'll be facing Beth Phoenix from XRF.
When she reaches the ring, Super Crazy hands her the mic.
Mickie James: So in about three weeks, I’ll be walking around with the Women’s Title. And that’s great, I’m psyched. But my problem is, honestly, there isn’t a whole lot of competition for our division yet, which kind of sucks. I mean, if I beat Beth, then that’s it, I’m champion. It feels almost too easy. It’s like being handed the title, and the way I was raised is you weren’t handed anything. All I’m saying is, it’s a little hard to appreciate victory when it’s pretty much handed to you.
“Holla” by Desiree Jackson plays. Kelly Kelly makes her way out to the ring, mic in hand.
JBL: What the hell? Who is this?
JS: That’s Kelly Kelly John, the only Knockout I know so nice, they named her twice! I wonder if she’s on the roster?
JBL: It’s logical to assume that’s why she’s here. There would be no other reason, right?
KK climbs into the ring.
KK: Mickie, am I hearing you right? You’re complaining about being handed a title opportunity?...Are you intellectually- disabled?
The crowd boos at KK’s comments.
KK: Mick, I am the newest acquisition to HCW, and since tonight’s my official debut, I’m challenging you to a match, right now, and if I win, it’ll be me, not you, representing HCW for the Women’s Title at Sky’s the Limit.
Mickie nods and agrees to the match.
Kelly Kelly def. Mickie James via pinfall.
JS: Gotta feel horrible for Mickie, she wanted a fighting chance and she comes up short.
JBL: That’s what happens when you run your mouth off, you get screwed.
JS: Literally, Kelly Kelly’s feet were on the ropes.
Super Crazy: This is the first match in the #1 Contender’s Tournament for the HCW Title! First, from Tampa, Florida, The Big Show! Next, from Charlotte, North Carolina, Cody Rhodes!
Cody Rhodes def. The Big Show via pinfall.
JS: Rhodes jumped on Big Show’s knee and didn’t let up until he couldn’t walk anymore.
JBL: Intelligent wrestling by Rhodes, you take the big man down and he can’t fight back. Let’s take it back now to Lillian Garcia who is standing by with one of four teams from the main event tonight, Lillian?
Lillian Garcia: I’m standing here with one of the four tag teams in tonight’s main event, JTG and Christian, gentlemen, what is your game plan heading into tonight?
Christian: Well, you see Lillian, the match tonight is an elimination style tag team match which means, in essence, you can tag anyone in, at any time, and your team is not eliminated until both men are pinned.
JTG: That’s right sweetie and Christian and myself, we have a fantastic idea of how we’re going to win this match. You may not expect it but the “Ghetto Genius” and “Captain Charisma” are going to stupefy, mystify and high fly come tonight’s main event.
CHR: And there ain’t a damn thing anyone can do about it.
JTG: Can you dig it?
Christian and JTG walk away.
JBL: No lack of confidence for JTG and Christian it seems.
JS: None at all JBL, by the way, Cherry has passed this down for us to announce, it is for the U.S. Championship and it will be a match between Triple H and MVP. NEXT WEEK!
JBL: Very exciting Joey, now let’s get on to the second match of the HCW Title Tournament.
Super Crazy: First, from Washington, D.C., Batista! -- Next, from Belfast, Northern Ireland, Finlay!
Batista def. Finlay via pinfall.
JBL: Batista damn near planted Finlay through the mat.
JS: He motions the title around his waist, he’ll have to get through a couple more people to reach that JBL.
Mickie James sits in a chair as the Doctor examines a cut above her eye. Lillian approaches her.
LG: Mickie, you came up short tonight against Kelly Kelly, albeit by questionable terms, where do you plan on going from here?
Mickie sighs and pushes the Doctor away.
MJ: I plan on winning the Women’s Title. Will I be the first to hold the Title? It doesn’t look that way, but I’m alright with that. I’ll get back in the ring next week, and the week after that, and the week after that, and eventually I’ll get it. Kelly Kelly wont always be so lucky.
JS: Mickie is nothing but class John.
JBL: Yeah and you see where being classy got her didn’t you?
JS: It’s time for our main event of the evening, with the HCW Title Tournament in full swing, we have two competitors listed in the semifinals already, Cody Rhodes and Batista, their opponents will be figured out next week.
JBL: That’s right Joey. But as you mentioned, it’s time for our main event, let’s take it in the ring to Super Crazy.
Super Crazy: This match is an elimination tag team match to determine the #1 Contender’s for the Tag Team Titles! Introducing first, at the combined weight of 379 pounds, Sting and Hornswoggle!
They make their way to the ring.
JBL: Sting doesn’t look too upset to be partnering with Hornswoggle.
JS: Why should he be?
JBL: Because they’re not even a tag team, you need two men for a team, not one and a half!
Super Crazy: Next, at a combined weight of 618 pounds, Chris Jericho and Mark Henry! -- With a combined weight of 310 pounds, Santino Marella and Evan Bourne! -- Finally, with a combined weight of 457 pounds, Christian and JTG!
Christian and Mark Henry start the match.
JS: So how does this work exactly?
JBL: You have 8 competitors, 4 tag teams…at any given time, a person can tag in anyone. When someone is pinned, they’re eliminated from the match. Your team is done when both men are eliminated.
(Bell.)
Christian adjusts his wrist tape and Mark Henry leans in the corner watching him. Christian motions for Henry to come at him and Henry laughs cockily, charging at him. Christian slides out of the way and Henry runs full steam into the turnbuckle. He groans, grabbing his chest and turns just as “Captain Charisma” begins delivering blows to his head. Christian tags in JTG and they double team Henry, pushing him back into the ropes and throw him into the far side. They go to double-clothesline him but are shoulder blocked to the mat hard when he comes back at them. Henry groans and stares down at them, then runs to the ropes and comes back, doing a massive splash on both competitors. He attempts a pin on them both at the same time…
1…2...
Double kick out. Henry gets up and sighs, tagging Jericho in.
JS: It seems the teams are keeping to working together so far.
JBL: We’ll see how long that lasts.
Jericho comes in and goes for JTG, being the legal man and picks him up, delivering several punches to his forehead. He sends JTG to the ropes and as JTG returns, delivers a vicious clothesline. He motions for JTG to get up as JTG bounces off the mat and comes to his feet, receiving a second clothesline. Jericho runs to the ropes and delivers a Lionsault to JTG’s ribs. Jericho rolls over in pain.
JBL: Jericho is on a roll!
JS: We may see the first elimination shortly if he keeps this up.
JBL: Jericho has to be my favorite in this match! He looks unstoppable!
JS: You want to put money on that?
JBL: Sure, hundred bucks says Jericho runs the table.
JTG rolls towards the ropes, weakened by the ass-kicking delivered by Jericho. Evan Bourne reaches through the ropes and tags himself in off of JTG and leaps to the top rope, jumping and delivering a Shooting Star Press to Chris Jericho…
1…2…3!
SC: Chris Jericho has been eliminated!
JBL: Don’t say a word Joey.
JS: I wasn’t going too --
JBL: I said shut the hell up, here, take your money.
Sting climbs in the ring and Evan Bourne backs away, creating a stare-down.
JS: Bourne showing obvious respect to the “The Icon”.
Evan Bourne approaches Sting and they shake hands, tying up. Sting delivers several knees to Bourne’s midsection before throwing him to the corner. Sting backs up and runs at Bourne for a “Stinger Splash” but Bourne is too quick and narrowly averts the hit. Sting’s chest bounces off the turnbuckle and he turns receiving a high dropkick from Bourne to the jaw. Bourne tags JTG back in and climbs out of the ring. JTG gets in as Sting is coming back to his feet. JTG delivers several kicks to the side of Sting’s head, who falls back to one knee. JTG celebrates and goes to kick Sting again, but his leg is caught and Sting turns it into a Scorpion Death Lock. Christian tries to make the save but Santino grabs him by the tights as he is hung over the top rope.
The crowd laughs.
JTG screams in pain and fights for a moment but succumbs and taps out.
SC: JTG is eliminated!
JBL: Half the teams only have one participant left already. I don’t care for their odds.
JS: You’re talking about Christian and Mark Henry, respectively. I wouldn’t count them out just yet.
Santino lets go of Christian’s tights and laughs. Christian stares at him and slaps him hard enough to send Santino out to the mat. Sting grabs the top rope Christian is holding and yanks it, sending Christian flying into the ring. Christian groans in pain. Santino climbs up to the apron and smacks Sting on the back, climbing into the ring. He grabs Christian and brings him to the corner. Santino climbs the turnbuckles and raises a hand. The crowd counts as he starts delivering shots to Christian’s forehead. “1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8…” until Christian grabs Santino and lifts him up, delivering a power bomb to Santino from the second rope. Christian goes for the pin.
1…2…
Santino kicks out. Christian sighs and gets up. He tags Mark Henry in who climbs in and picks up Santino, delivering a World’s Strongest Slam. Bourne climbs the ropes as Henry goes for the cover. Henry stands up quickly as Bourne flies and catches Bourne delivering another World’s Strongest Slam. Bourne rolls out of the ring in pain. Henry puts a boot on Santino’s chest.
1...2...3!
SC: Santino Marella has been eliminated!
Hornswoggle gets in the ring as Henry celebrates and when he turns around, Swoggle delivers a head butt to his balls. Henry immediately falls to his knees, groaning in pain as Hornswoggle points at him and laughs. Hornswoggle tags Sting in and Henry reaches over, tagging Christian back into the match. Christian climbs in and runs at Sting who sidesteps him and sends him into the turnbuckle, grabbing him from behind and delivering a Scorpion Death Drop. Sting slings an arm over Christian’s chest.
1…2…3!
SC: The team of Christian and JTG are eliminated!
Evan Bourne hits the top rope as Sting lays there exhausted and goes flying, delivering a Shooting Star Press on Sting.
1…2…3!
SC: Sting has been eliminated.
Hornswoggle stares in horror as his partner rolls out of the ring. He climbs into the ring, staring at Bourne, who motions for him to come at him. Hornswoggle thinks about it and runs over to the corner, tagging Henry who lays in the ring, still in pain. Hornswoggle climbs back out to the ring apron. Evan Bourne runs over and begins kicking and punching Henry who starts to get to his hands and knees. Bourne runs to the ropes, comes back and delivers a drop kick to the skull of Mark Henry who rolls over, knocked out. Bourne jumps clear over him to the second rope, climbs to the top and delivers his third Shooting Star Press of the match.
1…2…3
SC: The team of Mark Henry and Chris Jericho have been eliminated.
JBL: You’ve got to be kidding me. The team representing the Tag Team division from HCW have come down to these two?
JS: Evan Bourne is putting on a clinic John, and don’t forget Hornswoggle’s teammate is Sting.
Bourne turns his attention to Hornswoggle, who stares back at him, shocked. Bourne runs at Hornswoggle who jumps off the apron and backs up to the barricade. Bourne jumps over the top rope, to the mat below and Hornswoggle takes off. Bourne chases after him. After a couple times around the ring, Hornswoggle dives under the ring. Bourne chases after him underneath it. Hornswoggle comes out the other side and Bourne follows shortly after. Hornswoggle kicks him in the side a couple times before Bourne grabs him by the shirt collar. Bourne sighs, not wanting to, but lifts Hornswoggle and slings him backwards into the steel steps. Hornswoggle falls to the ground, his body limp. Bourne picks him up and rolls him into the ring, climbing to the top rope. He contemplates it a moment, squatting down on the turnbuckle before standing up and delivering the fourth Shooting Star Press.
1…2…3
Evan Bourne and Santino Marella win #1 Contender’s Spot for Tag Titles
SC: The team of Sting and Hornswoggle are eliminated. Your winners, Santino Marella and Evan Bourne!
Santino comes out to celebrate with his partner, who is busy helping Hornswoggle to his feet. Santino grabs Bourne’s hand and raises it as they celebrate in the center of the ring.
JS: Evan Bourne put on a clinic in that match JBL. One of the most exciting guys I’ve seen in a long time. Bright future for this kid.
JBL: I can’t believe this. This is just ridiculous. Sting, Chris Jericho, Mark Henry…Christian…none of them. No, we have the 3’5” Evan Bourne and Santino whose mental stability I have legitimate questions about.
JS: That may be, but they won fair and square in an awesome main event. We’re out of time, see you next week!.
