ROOKIE SINGLES MATCH
MATCH: MVP W/ RIC FLAIR DEFEATED SHAD GASPARD W/ KING BOOKER AND SHARMELL
[/li][li]A video package on Shad Gaspard aired before the match. It mentioned how Shad was born into poverty and how the streets raised him to be a fighter. It said how he wasn’t going to let anything get in his way and this was his moment. Shad said he likes the idea of Booker T as his pro because Booker T’s road was similar to his. However dealing with King Booker is a different story.
[/li][li]Shad comes out wearing a robe and some white trunks that were given to him by King Booker and he doesn’t look too enthusiastic about it.
[/li][li]A video clip of a training session between Ric Flair and MVP is shown. Clips are shown of MVP constantly answering his cell phone whenever Flair was trying to teach him something.
Shad Gaspard showed off tremendous strength and intensity tossing around MVP at times.
[/li][li]MVP was constantly ignoring Ric Flair’s advice doing his own thing, which seemed to backfire.
[/li][li]MVP picked up the win however by replicating his pro’s tactics and distracting the ref before delivering a low blow and rolling up Gaspard.
LEARNING THE HARD WAY
BACKSTAGE SEGMENT: RIC FLAIR AND MVP
[/li][li]Ric Flair arrives backstage and berates MVP for his performance and slaps him on the chest.
[/li][li]MVP says he doesn’t get what the problem is since he won.
[/li][li]Two women show up for Ric Flair in the middle of a speech by him directed at MVP.
[/li][li]MVP tells Flair to share the love but Flair says MVP has got to do things his way if he wants to learn how to party with the nature boy.
TENSIONS HEATING
VIDEO SEGMENT: CM PUNK & EDGE
[/li][li]A video recap of Edge training with CM Punk is shown.
[/li][li]Edge is reluctant to teach Punk anything.
[/li][li]Edge wants to see what Punk has got.
[/li][li]Punk manages to take down Edge and locks in a submission hold tight which causes Edge to tap the mat hard.
[/li][li]Edge yells at Punk telling him he wasn’t ready and it was just a light training session.
[/li][li]Edge storms out of the session furious with Punk.
[/li][li]Michael Cole tells everyone to go to wwe.com to see more training clips like this and the MVP one.
ROOKIE & PRO TAG
MATCH: CHRIS BENOIT & SETH SKYFIRE DEFEATED MATT HARDY & MIKE KNOX
[/li][li]Standard tag team action here, lots of back and forth action between the 2 teams.
[/li][li]Knox shows himself to be all about himself as he tags himself in when Matt is in the ring and refuses to tag out at times when Matt calls for it.
[/li][li]Finish comes when Knox refuses another Hardy tag and receives a flying cross body from Skyfire whom pins Knox.
[/li][li]Skyfire celebrates like he won a gold medal and Benoit tells him to calm down before shaking his hand.
A ROOKIE ALLIANCE
BACKSTAGE SEGMENT: MATT HARDY, MIKE KNOX & DERRICK NEIKIRK
[/li][li]Mike Knox storms the backstage area pissed off.
[/li][li]Matt Hardy tries to tell his rookie to calm down and it’s not the world.
[/li][li]Matt tries to criticise his rookies ego and Knox temper rises as he shouts at Hardy who decides it is best to leave his rookie alone.
[/li][li]Derrick Neikirk approaches Knox and says he likes his style and has a plan.
[/li][li]Neikirk says that he believes they have been paired with sub par pros and that they should form an alliance where they look out for each others backs in order to advance.
[/li][li]Knox likes Neikirk’s thinking and decides to join an alliance with him.
A LONG HISTORY
INTERVIEW: SYLVESTER TERKAY & SHELTON BENJAMIN
[/li][li]Josh Matthews is backstage with Shelton Benjamin and his rookie Sylvester Terkay.
[/li][li]Matthews wants to know what Terkay’s issue with Angle is.
[/li][li]Terkay said Angle cost him the 1992 NCAA wrestling championship as well as a spot in the 1996 Olympic team due to tactics in which he should’ve been penalised for.
[/li][li]Terkay says tonight is all about pride and redemption and exposing the fraud that Kurt Angle is.
A REMATCH 14 YEARS LATER
AMATEUR WRESTLING MATCH: KURT ANGLE W/ HARRY SMITH DEFEATED SYLVESTER TERKAY W/ SHELTON BENJAMIN
[/li][li]Both men come out in traditional amateur wrestling gear with their corner men Harry Smith for Angle and Shelton Benjamin for Terkay.
[/li][li]Very Evenly matched encounter here with neither man giving the other much of a chance to do any real damage.
[/li][li]Back and forth action with the score at 8-8 after about 4 minutes of grappling.
[/li][li]Kurt Angle catches Sylvester Terkay in the eye with what looks like an accidental eye poke.
[/li][li]The referee doesn’t catch it and counts the pin for Angle.
[/li][li]Shelton Benjamin & Terkay tries to argue with the ref about the eye poke, but Mike Chioda doesn’t reverse the call.
[/li][li]Terkay then attacks Angle and starts pounding him. Harry Smith tries to come to his save but Terkay delivers a belly to belly suplex to Smith flooring him.
[/li][li]Terkay continues the assault, whilst Shelton Benjamin has decided it’s best to get out of his way.
[/li][li]After Terkay is finished he grabs Kurt Angle’s medals and say these are rightfully his and he is The Predator as the show goes off the air with Terkay raising Angle’s medals.
