Episode 33:
GM - Ted DiBiase, Jr.
Commentary: Jim Ross + Mike Tenay
Xplosion Champions
WWX United States Champion Consequences Creed
WWX Xtreme Tag Team Champions The Rock 'n' Sock Connection
WWX X-Division Tag Team Champions Jobbing Heroes (these titles are currently only defended on PPV)
WWX Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble
WWX Intercontinental Champion Edge
A package of this past Sunday night's Xtravaganza starts right after the Xplosion theme Uprising by Muse and the title card plays. We see the battle between Batista and Shawn Michaels, the punches to Michaels' face in the corner, the irish whip/clothesline combo in the opposite corner, in short, the clinic the two put on as Batista ended an era. Then we see the sneaky way in which Cruiserweight Champion Noble kept his prize as Hardy appeared to be limping a bit to most viewers and the commentary team, but nothing substantial has been said on that end as of yet. Noble held his belt high after his match with Hardy, and now that bout is added to his highlight package also depicting his successful win against Nunzio in the past. The package ends with Monty Brown breaking the Master Lock, and pouncing Chris Masters over the top for the big upset Royal Rumble win and the next title card hyping up the Main Event in which Monty Brown makes his official WWX debut against the reigning Intercontinental Champion. But first, GM DiBiase wanted to keep the momentum from last night going with another championship match to open tonight's show and the challenger already stands in the ring.
Match 1 - WWX United States Championship Match
Consequences Creed © vs. Abyss
DiBiase, Jr.: This past Sunday you all saw Tazz tap out, which declared Senshi the winner of the Regal Bash match. As many of you know already, the winner of the Regal Bash match every January will be afforded the right to decide whether they want to switch brands or stay right where they are. No draft and no trades. This will solely be Senshi's decision. He may have somebody specific in mind that he wishes to go after, or he may have unfinished business at home. Make no mistake, this decision is just as important as the one Monty Brown has to make and everyone is just as on notice for what Senshi will do.
Match 2 - Non-Title Match
The Rock n Sock Connection vs. William Regal/Umaga
A pre-match interview with Conway has him fuming that he made it all the way into the Final 3 from the #2 position and his performance is being overlooked by everybody. He wanted to demand a shot at Masters, but being as the two are on separate brands he may never again get another chance at him. He has decided to take his aggressions out on his opponent tonight.
JR: Here comes GM DiBiase and with the events of the last 24 hours on his mind he sure has a lot to explain and a lot to decide in the coming weeks as we push on full steam ahead with the Road to SlamStock.
DiBiase, Jr: I was quite impressed with Conway's performance in the Rumble match. He was the only person I chose from this brand to compete and he took on the challenge of being the 2nd entrant in the match all on his own. That being the case, and in honor of our new tv deal, I am activating a new championship to be defended on Monday Nights. The winner of this next match will compete for this new prize next week.
Match 3 - Robert Conway vs. Finlay
Match 4 - Tazz vs. Ted DiBiase, Jr. (GM DiBiase, Jr. makes a surprising decision and books himself in a match on a brand he's not on)
Match 5 - X-Division Tag Team Championship #1 Contender’s Match
Jeff Hardy/Carlito vs. Sting/Mr. Kennedy
Match 6 - Fatal 4 Way
JTG vs. Danny Basham vs. Snitsky vs. Charlie Haas
Match 7 - Matt Striker vs. Jonathan Coachman
Tenay: Up next we have the wildly unpredictable Royal Rumble winner taking on our reigning Intercontinental Champion. He will be making his rounds to all the brands this week putting everyone on notice. A man of few words it is difficult to tell what he is thinking and which direction he may go in. Brand warfare is still going strong, and he may choose to elevate his own brand to the main event and stage. He is a rookie who was not even supposed to compete in the Royal Rumble and now we present his first official WWX match against the ultimate opportunist.
Main Event - Monty Brown vs. Edge

Voting has been extended because I’m still trying to find a good enough deadline time. 24 hours feels too short.

All of the votes that we have gotten thus far are in. So we can reveal the results:
Match 1: Abyss starts off decking Creed with a few hellacious lariats. Abyss tries to put the champion away early with the Black Hole Slam, but Creed reverses with a surprise hurricanrana. Creed is actually able to lift Abyss, but quickly drops him neck first on the rope, clearly unable to hold him up for long. Creed positions on the top rope, biding his time, Abyss is up and Creed takes him down with a top rope clothesline of his own. Abyss not looking too good in this match, until a drop toe hold into a bulldog. Abyss knows he might have to start moving more quickly to have a chance against the much more agile champion. Abyss goes for another black hole slam, but Creed counters again with a roll up/roll out into a legsweep DDT for the win!
Winner and STILL WWX United States Champion: Consequences Creed.
Match 2: Regal thinks he can control Umaga, and use him to ascend to the top of the tag team scene once again, but signs of dissention are there early as the two can't decide which one will start to face off with The Rock. Umaga shoves Regal out of the ring and makes it clear he'll start. Rock goes for the rock bottom, hoping Umaga was distracted enough, Umaga reverses into the samoan spike, but The Rock ducks and hits his patented clothesline turning him inside out. Tag into Mankind. Couple headbutts to Umaga, as the champions make it clear isolating Umaga in their corner is their gameplay. Tag into Rock. Rock stomps on Umaga in the corner. Irish whip into the spinebuster, Regal and everyone else knows the people's elbow is next. He runs in and tackles The Rock before he can go for it. The ref losses control, chaos in the ring, Mankind hits them both with the mandible claw. Rock still hits the people's elbow and pins Umaga.
Winner(s): The Rock n Sock Connection
Match 3: The styles of Conway's more cautious approach and Finlay's brutal beatdown clash as Conway wants test of strength, but Finlay hits the thesz press. Picks up Conway, lifts him up, back body drop. Finlay is clearly in the best shape of his career, lifts him up again, irish whip, powerslam! He puts Conway in the celtic knot, but he's too close to the ropes - rope break. Conway uses his adrenaline to hit a swinging neckbreaker and both men are down. Finlay's up first and gets the double leg take down into the boston crab, with the knee in the neck for leverage, and submission!
Winner: Finlay
Match 4: Tazz opens up the contest with a big belly to belly suplex. DiBiase was caught off guard, but gets the upper hand in the test of strength. Delayed vertical suplex by DiBiase! Picks Tazz up and gets him with the side Russian leg sweep, rolled into the million dollar sleeper. Tazz plays possum and DiBiase falls for it. Tazz back elbows him in the face, go behind, Tazzmission! DiBiase taps!
Winner: Tazz
Match 5: Hardy and Kennedy start off. Both go for the irish whip combo move, but they cancel each other out. Kennedy picks out Hardy's leg and stomps on it, backs him into the ropes and clips his leg. Tag into Sting. Hardy in the corner, Sting hits the Flair-style chops and the crowd responds. With the crowd behind them, tag into Kennedy, who grabs his head and knees him right in the face. Hardy falls down, Kennedy picks him up and hits him with a half nelson suplex into a pin. Carlito in to break it up, and drop kicks Kennedy out of the ring giving Hardy enough time to get over and legally tag him in. Carlito spears Sting off the apron. Goes out, pushes Kennedy into the barrier, picks him up and drops him down onto it. Counts at 5, so Carlito drags Kennedy back in, stalks him as he gets up, BACKSTABBER! 1,2,3.
Winner(s) and #1 Contenders: Jeff Hardy & Carlito
Match 6: The other 3 identify the big man Snitsky as their biggest threat here and agree to team up on him. Surprisingly, this actually seems to work as JTG hits a top rope leg drop on a standing Snitsky as Basham and Haas hold him in place. Basham and Haas hit the double suplex on JTG, being a champion he appears to be the next target. Basham hits a brainbuster on JTG and Haas puts him in a headlock, full body stretch submission. Basham waits for him to wear JTG down before dropping the knees on the back of Haas' head. Basham goes for the pin on JTG, but gets pulled out by Snitsky who boots him right in the face. Snitsky is back up and goes on a tear, hitting both JTG and Haas with a pump handle slam, leaving him the last one standing. Snitsky for the pin on Haas, but turnabout is fairplay as he's pulled out by Basham and thrown over the announcer's table, but Basham also buries him under the debris that he's pulled off the announce table, tangling him up in wires accidentally. As he runs back in the ring he spots JTG and clotheslines him over the top rope. Haas hits him from behind, irish whip, sideslam, Haas of Pain! Basham taps!
Winner: Charlie Haas
Match 7: Chris Benoit is not in Coachman's corner for this match, he wants to see if the training is sinking in. Striker opens up right away with the running neckbreaker. Striker is out to remind everyone that he is a technical wrestler, he hits him with the delayed vertical knee drop as he's on the ground favoring his neck. Coachman is able to get up and reverse Striker's running knee strike into a spinebuster, but only gets a 1 count. Coachman sees this as an opportunity, Striker is grounded so he can try his new crossface that he's been working on, but Striker catches his arm, and slowly rises adding in a couple gut punches. Striker pulls the arm back, locks both of Coachman's arms and GORY BOMB!
Winner: Matt Striker
Main Event: This match starts with the two trading haymakers. Edge ends up knocked against the ropes and it looks like Brown is going to go for the pounce, but instead clotheslines Edge over the top rope. He taunts the champion. Edge is seething, and Brown is counting on him to misstep. Edge gets back in the ring, collar and elbow tie up, DDT! Edge drops a series of elbows, then picks him up and hits a series of clotheslines. Now it's Edge's turn to taunt. Then he slicks his hair back and goes for the spear, perhaps a bit early. Brown sidesteps and Edge gets nothing but turnbuckle. Brown with the clothesline in the corner, irish whip off the ropes, POUNCE!
Winner: Monty Brown
Special thanks to those who participated!

Nice write ups on the matches! Surprised Sting’s team lost in the tag match, liked the fact you mentioned Coach’s training in his match but still glad he lost. Edge/Monty Brown sounded good, Brown’s gained momentum from his Rumble win which is good booking. Overall good stuff.

Edge/Monty Brown sounded good, Brown’s gained momentum from his Rumble win which is good booking. Overall good stuff. But, it also would have made sense had Edge defeated him, which is really good booking. ALSO, now that the Hardcore Championship and 24/7 Championship are active you guys can add to the chaos of those belts by posting a title change whenever you want, BUT it has to be on the thread of the brand where those championships are defended. |

Episode 34:
GM - Ted DiBiase, Jr.
Commentary: Jim Ross + Mike Tenay
Xplosion Champions
WWX United States Champion Consequences Creed
WWX Xtreme Tag Team Champions The Rock 'n' Sock Connection
WWX X-Division Tag Team Champions Jobbing Heroes (these titles are currently only defended on PPV)
WWX Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble
WWX Intercontinental Champion Edge
DiBiase, Jr.: You fans have come to expect blockbuster announcements from me each and every week on every one of my shows, and so far I have delivered. In the beginning, Xplosion had a constantly rotating GM from Bischoff to Edge to Orton to Punk to Chris Benoit and now we decide who wields all the power in the ring, which I have defended whenever called upon to do so. To open the show tonight I will announce two things, first it occurred to me that LCWF can only hold PPV caliber events during our biggest shows of the year and that is not fair to them in this competition, so on the Sunday after Alcatraz LCWF will present LCWF: Takeover Alcatraz the first LCWF only PPV, which I hope will instill confidence in me as GM and, of course, it will probably make more money so that's a bonus. My second announcement is that I am not perfect and I got pinned last week by Tazz, which forces me to put my power on the line against him tonight.
Tazz: No, thanks boss. I will pass on my right to challenge you in favor of debuting a championship of my own.
DiBiase, Jr.: If you're sure, then that match will open the show tonight.
Match 1: WWX FTW Championship Match
Tazz vs. Matt Striker
Match 2: Jeff Hardy & Carlito vs. Robert Conway & Joey Styles (Manager: Bret Hart)
DiBiase, Jr.: As any of you who follow our competitor show knows, one of our reveals for tonight's show was spoiled. It's a big moment that was planned so we can't just reverse course, but just know that we do this begrudgingly.
Match 3: WWX TNT Championship Match
Finlay vs. The Boogeyman
Randy Orton: All last week Monty Brown was coming out on top again and again. He got away with saying next to nothing, and I will not put up with it any longer.
Monty Brown: I have nothing to say. My reasons are my own and it is on a need to know basis.
Randy Orton: I think we all need to know.
Monty Brown: No. We did not have a Money in the Bank match last year, so the element of surprise is mine and mine alone. I think I'll keep that. I know you have championship aspirations and that's why you want to know if you and I are chasing the same belt. I know all about your motives Orton, and nothing you do will surprise me.
*They get in each other's face and Orton goes for the RKO, but Brown has him set up for the pounce in a quick reversal and Orton slithers out of the ring*
Match 4: Charlie Haas vs. JTG
DiBiase, Jr.: It has come to my attention that my predecessors at this job made a grave error that I intend to correct with this next match. You see 33 weeks ago Kofi Kingston won a #1 Contender's Match for the then newly instated United States Championship. Now that we have finally decided the undisputed champion, let's see if Kingston can prove himself against a real challenge.
Match 5: Consequences Creed vs. Kofi Kingston
Match 6: Jamie Noble vs. Mitch
Match 7: Randy Orton vs. Petey Williams
Main Event: WWX Intercontinental Championship Tables Match
Edge (c) vs. Brother Ray

Charlie Haas is competing in a huge match with JTG, but he is worried about outside interference as it is the one championship that is defended on all brands right now. He knows there are plenty of people who would love to be in his shoes right now, and would have nothing more on their minds than him losing in tonight's match. Specifically, Snitsky is still angry about Edge taking his spot as the man to beat on Xplosion and is looking to once again put his name back in the fans' minds.

No votes received. Simulated results incoming.
Match 1: Tazz has something to prove here. It's his own title after all, if he is not the first champion he would be utterly humiliated. So he is trying to put Striker away fast as possible and starts off by clipping Striker's leg. He gets Striker off balance so he can begin throwing him around with his suplexes. He starts off with 2 belly to bellys and a delayed vertical suplex. Pin attempt, but only a 1. Striker gets a few punches in, but Tazz throws his own punches to the ribs and throws him around with a gutwrench suplex. He goes over, but gets caught with a small package and Striker gets a near fall. Tazz is frustrated and throws him around again with 2 german suplexes, pulls him to the middle of the ring and puts him in the tazzmission for the tap out.
Winner and 1st EVER WWX FTW Champion: Tazz
Match 2: Jeff Hardy & Carlito def. Robert Conway & Joey Styles (Carlito pins Styles after a backstabber)
Match 3: Winner and 1st EVER WWX TNT Champion: The Boogeyman
Match 4: Charlie Haas defeats 1/2 the WWX X-Division Tag Team Champions JTG
Match 5: WWX United States Champion Consequences Creed defeats Kofi Kingston
Match 6: WWX Cruiserweight Champion Jamie Noble defeats Mitch
Match 7: Randy Orton defeated Petey Williams
Main Event: Winner and STILL WWX Intercontinental Champion: Edge

Episode 35:
GM - Ted DiBiase, Jr.
Commentary: Jim Ross + Mike Tenay
Xplosion Champions
WWX United States Champion: Consequences Creed
WWX Xtreme Tag Team Champions: The Rock 'n' Sock Connection
WWX X-Division Tag Team Champions: Jobbing Heroes (these titles are currently only defended on PPV)
WWX Cruiserweight Champion: Jamie Noble
WWX Intercontinental Champion: Edge
WWX FTW Champion: Tazz
WWX TNT Champion: The Boogeyman
*We're trying out different opening themes, but this episode starts with "Let the Bodies Hit the Floor" while the wrestler montage plays*
Ross: United States Champion Creed has been on a roll ever since he emphatically took the championship from Abyss, not only that but he even seems to have earned some sort of bizarre respect from the former champion. To add to what should be a completely chaotic scenario, the man who tried to chase his championship last week, Kofi Kingston, is now teaming with him and his former adversary tonight. Can these men co-exist and if they can't, is the title in jeopardy?
Tenay: Outside of all that brewing, we go to the back now where it appears somebody actually found The Boogeyman because he's been laid out. He's buried under ladders and chair and he's obviously been put through a table. He was supposed to captain the team taking on the US Champion's team tonight. What statement could some unknown assailant be making here?
Kennedy: MISTERRRRR KENNNNNNNEDDDDY!! The WWX refuses to recognize that I was the first X-Division Champion in history and now my championship and I are no longer on the same brand so I can't do anything about that. Lucky for Tomko. But what I can do is keep picking off the champions on this brand week after week until they're forced to vacate the championship or until I win one in substitution for the one I never lost. So, I took out The Boogeyman, and I'm taking his place as the captain of his team because I'm a leader. I'm a champion, and Creed is going to find out that he should have just let Abyss win the title back because I can't intimidate that monster by doing what I have planned. MISSSSSSTEERRRRR KENNNNNNNEDDYY!!!
Match 1: Consequences Creed, Abyss, & Kofi Kingston vs. The Hurricane, Mr. Kennedy, & Brother Ray
Match 2: The Rock n Sock Connection vs. Curt Hawkins & Dolph Ziggler
Match 3: Jamie Noble vs. Jonathan Coachman (Manager: Chris Benoit)
Match 4: Edge vs. Goldberg
Tenay: Well ladies and gentlemen, the TNT Championship's very existence is evidence of far too much influence by the network and for some unknown reason Boogeyman was the man they wanted representing them and he was able to come out victorious last week over the rough and tumble irishman, Finlay. But, up next, and this was just communicated to us, so hold on to your seats. The network has set up a 6 man gauntlet match to determine the first number one contender to The Boogeyman's new championship. These men have all been handpicked by the network giving you our show tonight, and therefore each and every one of them would be suitable candidates in the estimation of our producers so I have complete faith that this should be a slobberknocker, eh JR?
Match 5: Gauntlet Match to determine a #1 Contender for the WWX TNT Championship
Bret Hart vs. Joey Styles
#3. MVP
#4. The Miz
#5. The Sandman
#6. Sting
Match 6: William Regal vs. Umaga
Match 7: Matt Striker vs. Finlay vs. Petey Williams
Ross: Xplosion is sort of the brand without a world champion at the moment, but ever since he made Matt Striker tap out last week to become the FTW Champion, Tazz has been parading himself as Xplosion's long lost world champion, despite being booked to open the show last week.
Tenay: I didn't find out about this until I came into the arena today and saw Tazz's face everywhere. Apparently, he has demanded to compete in tonight's main event against a challenger "worthy of him" and, if I understood him correctly, he means to compete in every main event on Xplosion until he loses this championship. Is this guy serious JR?
Ross: About as serious as a $2 dollar steak, I'm sure, but whether he's serious or not his opponent tonight, the viper, is always serious. If you're not careful in the ring with him you won't have to worry about being careful ever again, if you know what I mean.
Main Event: Tazz vs. Randy Orton

*This week opens up with Carlito’s Cabana introduced by Jeff Hardy*
Carlito: I’m not out here tonight to discuss our tag team loss at Alcatraz and I’m not out here tonight to make excuses. What I’m out here to do is welcome the man who defeated 19 others to officially become, arguably, the man in this company, Bobby Lashley. Now that’s cool. Years ago many people considered him nothing more than a place holder and a puppet, but now he’s one of the biggest names on the planet.
*Lashley, Hernandez and Elix Skipper make their way down to the ring*
Hernandez: You know we left a path of destruction in our wake in that match that allowed you to pick up the scraps and win that belt.
Lashley: You guys tossed out most of my competition, yes, I will admit that.
*Carlito tried to interject some questions, but Lashley doesn’t want to stick around*
Skipper: The way I see it you owe at least one of us the chance to win that belt.
Lashley: The way I see it I’m the only one that can defend his championship anywhere at any time. So I’ll see you two this Saturday.

GM - Ted DiBiase, Jr.
Commentary: Jim Ross and Mike Tenay
NWA Champion: Bobby Lashley
Xplosion Champions
WWX United States Champion: Consequences Creed
WWX Xtreme Tag Team Champions: The Rock 'n' Sock Connection
WWX Cruiserweight Champion: Jamie Noble
WWX Intercontinental Champion: Edge
WWX FTW Champion: Tazz
WWX TNT Champion: The Boogeyman
Inside the ring we have JTG ready to address us, essentially for the first time since losing the X-Division Tag Team Championships. JTG: I have not been doing my part lately, when I was champion my hook was that I was doing it for all of those wrestlers who were constantly told that they would never be anything more than jobbers. Now, I can't even defeat Mr. Kennedy, when during my reign as champion I repeatedly took out contenders such as Dolph Ziggler. The worst feeling is that I cannot even get me guaranteed rematch for those titles because me and my tag team partner are not on the same brand and, as a result of our loss, our titles are now brand exclusive. It's unbelievable that we had to defend our belts against 5 other teams at once, some of those men had no business being in the ring with us. I'm not sure who JTG is now without those titles and without his tag team partner, and now that I'm losing singles matches it is not clear to me what sort of future I have, if any. I was not on this brand in the beginning, I was chosen as a free agent, and I became 1 of the only 2 tag teams in history to win that belt, as an undrafted loser. I can't go back to coming out here every night and just losing, I have to believe I have become more than that. There is still a tag team division on this brand, but I have no partner and it seems like bigger stakes to me if I try to go up against those guys. I have another singles match tonight, another chance to prove that I can still be the future of this brand, I just need you all to have faith in me as you once did.
Tenay: An emotional plea from the former champion, but is his confidence shot? I mean, can he get the job done tonight and, if he does, will each loss be just a setback or the end of the line?
Match 1: JTG vs. Matt Striker
Kofi Kingston is in the ring now. Kingston: Unlike JTG, I have been here since Day 1, but on that day I was holding the United States Championship, a reign which is not recognized by the World Wrestling Xcellence board. But, it's a new day. Let me set the record straight, I already brought this up and got the chance to prove my point when Creed defeated me a number of weeks ago. I can no longer earn a championship match against him by putting up a good showing in non-title matches because I can't face him one on one again. Creed is protected from me a number of different ways, I was not even booked on the show last week. However, in case anyone missed it last night Creed is off his game, a man who has beaten The Monster Abyss was taken out swiftly by a guy in tights. Tonight the United States Championship is set to be defended, so things in that division may just be heating up. It's been over 10 years since I wore the United States Championship and I can't even call myself a former champion, which is why I decided to join Lashley and his team. The Fall is the opposition to The Council that has been running this company, and running guys like me away, since it's inception. Creed and I find ourselves on opposite sides in this fight and his team has been winning for a long time, but The Fall is called that because we represent the end of this dynasty. Our guy holds one of the biggest titles in professional wrestling, not just the WWX, so I figure I stick with him and follow his plan and I won't need my first reign to count because I'll have plenty more where that came from.
Ross: Tenay in all my years as a professional broadcaster I have never witnessed a bigger division than the one The Council has created in this company. We don't know where the allegiances of Kingston's opponent lie, but we might rather just as soon not find out.

Voting over. It is now time to post the results.
Match 1: They tie up and Matt Striker starts with an abdominal stretch, pounding away at the ribs with his elbow. JTG reverses by stomping on the foot and delivering a hip toss. JTG connects with a bridging German suplex for the win.
Winner: JTG
Match 2: There is no collar and elbow tie up as Snitsky connects with a boot to the face immediately. He starts thrashing on the back and head of Kingston while he's down before delivering a powerbomb into a pin, but only gets a 1. Kingston's up with a spinning, corkscrew roundhouse kick to the head for the win.
Winner: Kofi Kingston
Match 3: The Hurricane starts with an explosive clothesline, then kicks the champion into the corner. He jumps up and drives both of his feet into the head. He drags him over for the pin, but gets rolled up into a nearfall. Creed hits the honor roll rolling, kip up clothesline for the win.
Winner and STILL WWX United States Champion: Consequences Creed
Match 4: The Boogeyman and The Sandman both try to psych each other out with the gyrating from the Boogeyman and Sandman smashing the beer cans on his head. Boogeyman is the first to strike with a headbutt. But Sandman seems to shake it off and catches him with a spear. Sandman to the top turnbuckle, but misses with the diving leg drop. Boogeyman hits a low dropkick to the face and locks on a headlock on the mat. Sandman fights him to a kneeling position and starts punching the midsection, but gets nowhere. Boogeyman knees him on the bridge of the nose, then lifts him and connects with the chokebomb.
Winner and STILL WWX TNT Champion: The Boogeyman
Match 5: Jeff and Paul both start with quick bouncing off the ropes, each opponent has no idea what to expect. London catches up to him and brings him down with a single leg into a half boston crab. Hardy rolls through into a drop kick to the chin. He catches London with a double leg take down into a pin for a 1 count. London catches Hardy with a roundhouse kick to the face and gets a 1 count as well. They both stand and lock up, London hits Hardy with a shot to the knee, then connects with a double underhook backbreaker. London goes for a standing moonsault but misses. Hardy hits him with a spinning neckbreaker, then starts measuring him, London slowly starts to get back up and Hardy quickly connects with whisper in the wind. He drags London to the middle of the ring, hits a standing leg drop, then gets the pinfall.
Winner: Jeff Hardy
Match 6: Noble tries to start with a reverse DDT, but Haas counters into a belly to belly suplex. Haas off the ropes tries a running lariat, but Noble catches him and takes him down with an armbar. The armbar wrenched in, Noble also applies pressure to Haas with a boot to the back of the neck. Haas pulls him back a bit and gets a rope break. Noble lets him go at a 4 count, and Haas is favoring his arm. As he's getting up Noble starts directing his kicks right to his arm, until Haas catches one and hits him with a scoop slam. Haas is still favoring his arm, so he wants to end this match quickly, so he locks in the Haas of Pain submission in the center of the ring which is hurting him just as much, but it's a matter of who can withstand it longer. Haas starts to loosen it a bit, but he's able to switch arms to keep the hold and lessen the pain on himself!
Winner: Charlie Haas
Match 7: Mankind starts with Mitch with a suplex. He drags Mitch over and tags in The Rock. The Rock starts stomping on him in the corner and tags in MVP. MVP hits a running boot to the face in the corner. He drags Mitch out and goes for the pin but only gets a 1. Mitch starts working over MVP's leg with some elbows as he tries to get a grip from his downed position, but MVP gets another well placed kick to the face. MVP puts him in a modified version of the camel clutch, but Abyss comes in grabs MVP and tosses him out. The ref sends Abyss back, but the damage has been done as MVP can't get back in time to stop Mitch from tagging in Finlay. Finlay comes in hot with three clotheslines to MVP and punches out both Rock and Mankind off the apron. Finlay's going for consecutive elbow drops to the chest of MVP as Rock and Sock come in and so do Mitch and Abyss. It's chaos and the ref has lost control. Mankind has the mandible claw on Abyss and forces him over the top rope as both men tumble out. Mitch is going for a running forearm smash on The Rock but he misses and catches Finlay by mistake, so The Rock lays Mitch out with a rock bottom, and gets out of the ring before the ref can start the count. Finlay's beginning to recover, but MVP had him measured and connects with the playmaker.
Winner(s): The Rock 'n' Sock Connection & MVP
Match 8: Funaki surprises everyone with a running bulldog immediately. Funaki has the upperhand and waits for Basham to get up to start with kicks in the corner to the torso and the head. Then he grabs Basham by the head, rolls through, and throws him off with his knees. Funaki goes for an elevated knee drop, but Basham rolls out of the ring. He pulls Funaki out with him and bounces his head off the announce table before rolling back in the ring. Then Basham hits a suicide dive sending Funaki crashing into the announce table a second time. He rolls Funaki back into the ring, stops on each of his limbs and hits and elbow drop to the midsection. Then he connects with his brainbuster maneuver, dropping Funaki down right on the head.
Winner: Danny Basham
Main Event: Mr. Kennedy begins by shoving Tazz into the corner. Tazz shoves him off, but Kennedy's right back up for the driving shoulder tackles in the corner. Then he lifts Tazz up and goes for the superplex. Once again Tazz shoves him down, and hits him with a senton. Now he figures is time to start the suplexes, so he hits him with two belly to belly suplexes and is about to go for a german, but Kennedy connects with not one but two back elbows to the head and both men are down. Kennedy rolls over and applies a front facelock. Kennedy starts driving his knee into the top of Tazz's head, but Tazz starts to stand up, even headbutting one of the knees from Kennedy. Then throws him off with a toss suplex. Kennedy is up rather slowly, but goes for a much faster strike only to be caught by Tazz and put in the Tazzmission almost in the center of the ring. Tazz has it fully locked in as his legs are grapevined around the torso as well.
Winner: Tazz

No votes. Simulated results incoming.
Tonight's show kicks off with a video recap of Bobby Lashley's victory over Rory McAllister to capture the NWA-WWX Championship. After the video wraps up, we shoot live inside the Xplosion ringside area where Ross and Tenay welcome us to the show. From there, we shoot backstage where we see the, recently resurfaced, Council walking through the hallways as they arrived to the venue earlier today. Each member dressed in their throwback ski masks and all black outfits as some of them have still yet to be revealed publicly.
WWX interviewer, Kyle Smith, approaches them and asks one of them for a comment. He talks about how this whole week has been 10 years in the making and addresses almost all of the championships being defended tonight being an opportunity for them to set an example to the rest of the locker room, as they can show everybody what happens when you try to take them down after they spent the last 10 years building their empire in the shadows.
Monty Brown enters the shot, looks directly into the camera and says, "And after 10 years they chose me to reintroduce and represent them at Slamboree. I am one of the few of them who is proud to admit that I belong with this group because they gave me a shot when nobody else would. Getting rid of them could cost a lot of future people the chance that I have, and I can't just sit back and let that happen."
JTG's theme hits. "As I told you all last week I always strived to be somebody to be a role model when I was a champion. Then I beat Striker, and I'd be lying if I told you all I didn't have a bit of a change of heart. Matt Striker does nothing but get beat down by everybody week after week. My trailblazing reign as champion has done nothing for his career and does not seem to have lit any sort of fire in him, so why am I wasting my time? I need my own path, my former tag team partner has already captured another title. I get to face a former #1 contender to the US Title, in a no disqualification match. I get to show exactly what I have and if I win, then DiBiase will no longer be able to ignore what he has in me. Tonight I will be trending because I may not be a role model, but I'm still a hero and a revolutionary.
Match 1: The bell sounds and the match is underway as Kingston starts trying to box out JTG immediately, but JTG drops to the mat and rolls out of the ring. He rolls back in and rolls back out the other side, but now Matt Striker's there waiting for him. Tenay: Uh oh, JTG forgot that interference is completely legal in this match before he called Striker weak moments ago. Striker tosses him back into Kingston who gives him a snap suplex.
Ross: Well would you look at that, seems everybody was watching JTG intently, there's the GM keeping a close eye on this one from backstage.
The attention back in the ring now as Kingston still has the upper hand, until he goes for a splash in the corner which JTG avoids causing him to slam into the turnbuckle. JTG follows him to the outside, but gets caught by Kingston's leaping clothesline. Kingston rolls him back in the ring and gives him a hip toss.
Tenay: Well we were going to check in with DiBiase again, but seems he's not there. Oh no, there he is coming in from the crowd and he just gave JTG a running boot to the chin. Kingston clearly in control now as he rolls JTG back into the ring. Striker rolls in the ring now and asks Kingston to help him as he positions JTG for Kingston to give him a suplex right on to the point of Striker's knee. That connects and Striker wants to deal more damage, but as they both charge JTG he pulls the ropes down sending them both crashing to the outside. JTG goes for a corkscrew to the outside on both of them but gets caught by Striker who drives him into the steel ring post. Striker pushes him back into the ring. Kingston rolls in after him, comes off the ropes, and connects with the Boom Drop. Then he gots on him and starts hammering away at him with rights and lefts. Kingston lifts him up and powerslams him to the mat. He waits for JTG to get back up and connects with Trouble in Paradise.
Winner via pinfall Kofi Kingston
Bret Hart: Over the last decade a lot of people have been getting away with not fulfilling their contractual obligations as champions, as members of the roster, as people really. I'm not one of them, in fact, I am going to be the one to make sure all of that goes away. Not in regards to The Council or The Fall or whatever you guys need to feel like other people know you mean business. I mean at the most basic level I am going to hold people accountable and make sure they defend their titles at least once every 30 days as they are required by law to do and as I did when I held the WWF Title all those years ago.
Tenay: Hart seems like he's going to call someone out here -- here we go again. NWA Champion Bobby Lashley just cut Hart in half with a huge spear backstage! Lashley gives him the dominator on the concrete floor and starts stomping away at him. Lashley: You want to go on a little crusade you might as well start at the top!
Ross: Lashley's just beat him like a government mule and walked away like it was nothing, what a fine representative the NWA has for us there. Oh wait Hart's coming too, obviously frustrated he's knocking over tables and chairs, ya can hardly blame him.
Hart continues on shoving everything in his way and knocking over whatever he can find in an obviously purposeful path. He finally runs into GM DiBiase. Hart: Don't say anything. Tonight I'm stepping in that ring with Bobby Lashley. *DiBiase nods and Hart walks off*

Voting closed.
Tonight's show kicks off with Mike Tenay welcoming us to Madison Square Garden. FTW Champion Tazz making his way to the ring dressed in his sharpest suit. Ross: "Coming off a huge win last week over Randy Orton you have to wonder what Tazz has in store for us tonight." Tazz: "It's time I made an announcement. I have been winning time and time again since my debut on this show when I defeated Robert Roode. That was over 10 years ago, today I am what you all have to say, the most important champion on Monday Nights. Last week I proved it definitively when I put away your hero Randy Orton, you all thought when he finally got his shot you would be rid of me, but I am the face of this company now. However, I realize that when I put my title on the line last week it was the first time I ever did, and it's difficult to prove what I'm saying with only one opponent under my belt, so I'm going to do it again this week." Out comes Xplosion General Manager, Ted DiBiase, Jr. and he makes his way down to the ring.
DiBiase, Jr.: "After what I saw last week I'm completely okay with this, and I want you to know that you have my full support. I know my actions may not have shown it, but that's why I'm saying it now, and my actions next my not reflect it either, but I booked myself to wrestle you a number of weeks ago because I respect you and that's why I'm telling you like it is now. In fact, I planned to feud with you because I didn't respect you then. But, when you rejected the chance to wrestle me for all the power in this company it spoke to me. I can say now that if you had accepted it I may have even made some excuses and put it off as long as possible anyway. I---" DiBiase is interrupted by Finlay's theme. Finlay makes his way down to the ring and gets right in Tazz's face, ignoring the General Manager.
Finlay: "I never got the chance to congratulate you after your win. Which is for the best because that victory will be shortlived. Based on your celebration here one or two wins makes you the best, so why couldn't the same be said of me? I'd say more but I'd rather just beat my point in to you."
Tazz: "You had your chance at championship gold when you stepped into the ring with The Rock and look where that got you. I'm not even sure why I should consider giving you the shot tonight. I will say I'm impressed you actually talked tonight, the most I have ever heard from you is how you let your fists do the talking. I don't have a problem with you, but if you insist I can certainly make one up."
DiBiase, Jr.: "I think this is where I come in." Tazz and Finlay turn towards Ted.
Finlay: "You can either force Tazz to defend against me or I wait for him in the parking lot, either way he's getting a beat down tonight. Tazz is no innovator of violence." Finlay turns back towards Tazz. DiBiase clamors into the ring to stop this from going any further right now. A large group from the locker room then comes down and surrounds the ring. They slide in and attack both the General Manager and the champion in a 5-on-2 assault. Tazz and Ted roll out of the ring and head up the ramp favoring their heads and arms. Robert Roode grabs them both from behind and launches them off the entrance ramp. He goes over to Tazz on the ground and starts pounding away at his head. Everyone heads to the back while EMTs check on the 2, and we're taken to right behind the curtain as Roode goes through.
Tom Phillips: "Mr. Roode, can you give us anything as to what that was all about?"
Robert Roode: "Any idiot could see why I did that. It's clear my business with Tazz is not over by a long shot, and after 10 long years I'm finally ready to take what's mine. Tazz calling me out just now reminded me that he made his name at my expense. Tazz has turned the entire locker room against him and they've united against Finlay tonight, whether that be in the parking lot or in the ring, but Tazz has more than made himself a champion with a target on his back. He's public enemy number one."
Match 1: Both men stand in opposite corners as the ref is being extra cautious after what just happened. The bell dings.
JTG charges and tackles Randy with a thesz presses followed by some quick rights and lefts to the face before picking him up and whipping him into the corner. Randy lifts him up in a bear hug for a couple of seconds, before ramming him back first into the opposing turnbuckle. He wears him down with some huge chops and punches to the face, followed by a perfectly executed suplex toss. Then he goes back to the chops. JTG tries to fight back but Orton shakes it off. Randy turns it into his patented scoop powerslam. Orton goes for the RKO, but JTG pushes him off into the ropes and gives him a clothesline to give himself some time to rest. Benoit throws in a chair, which the ref immediately gets rid of, but JTG is able to take control in that time with a leg drop. Then picks him up and whips him into the corner, then he starts wailing on him with rights, lefts, and kicks. Orton shoves him off and gives him his vintage backbreaker. Orton goes for the punt, but JTG is pulled out of the ring by Benoit. The referee has ejected Chris Benoit from ringside! JTG goes to protest but Orton slithers out and tosses him back into the ring.
Orton goes for the classic 10 shots to the head in the corner. Orton goes back to his chops and delivers a hard irish whip into the opposite corner. Orton goes to pick him up, but JTG delivers a headbutt to the gut followed by a snap DDT. JTG goes for the cover, but Orton launches him off after 1. JTG goes for a diving leg drop off the top rope, but Orton moves out of the way. Orton follows with a big hip toss and knee strikes to the head. Orton clotheslines him over the top rope and down to the floor. Orton rolls out and rams him into the barricade multiple times. Orton rolls in the ring and breaks up the count. Then irish whips JTG into the steel ring steps. He kicks JTG right in the face. Orton rolls JTG back in the ring, but JTG tries to get things back in his favor with a neckbreaker, Orton reverses and gives him a forearm smash followed by the RKO! Orton waits and the punt as well connects! Orton goes for the cover, but lifts JTG at 2. Orton flips him over and locks in the Billy Goat's curse inverted boston crab in the center of the ring and JTG has no choice but to tap.
Winner via submission: Randy Orton
