CSW Cyclone Saturday Night
August 12, 2006
Announcers: Joey Styles & Tazz
Kansas City, MO
Joey Styles & Tazz welcome us to ringside to open up the show:
Styles: Hello Ladies and Gentlemen. I am Joey Styles, joined ringside by Tazz, and we want to personally thank you for joining us on what is sure to be one of the biggest nights in CSW’s young history. The biggest main event in Cyclone’s history takes place tonight, as Triple H defends his title in a tag team match. Yes, you heard right, Triple H and his handpicked opponent Steve Corino will take on Samoa Joe and Brock Lesnar, and the man that scores the pin could WIN the CSW Championship tonight. In addition to that, we have a huge 4 way Tag Team Contender’s match, the return to the ring of Masato Tanaka, and Brent Albright in action as well. But as always, we kick it off with the Cyclone Spotlight, and a rematch of last week’s matchup, which was interrupted by the now suspended Degeneration X. Let’s go to the ring.
Cyclone Spotlight: Low Ki v Roderick Strong
Ki makes his way out first, to mainly boos from the crowd. Strong is out next and gets a great reaction from the Kansas City fans. Both men circle each other in the ring, but stop dead in their tracks when they hear the music of Petey Williams over the speaker system. The KC Border Champion walks out with Trish Stratus at his side, and has a microphone:
Petey: So this is the Cyclone Spotlight that I’ve heard so much about? Before you guys get to your heated rematch here, I have a bit of news for you. You see, I’m the KC Border Champion. THE most prestigious championship in the CSW is right here on my shoulder. Do you know who I wrestled last week? A guy named Chance Beckett. Well that isn’t gonna stand with a superstar of my caliber. I deserve the main events, I deserve the headlining gigs, and I certainly deserve worthwhile opponents better than Chance Beckett. And that is where you fellas come into this deal. Cause this match is now going to be a Triple Threat match. I figured what better way to get my name into the lights, than to put it firmly in the Cyclone Spotlight. I had to make a few concessions for it to happen, including putting my KC Border Title on the line if I wanted into the Spotlight. So you heard right. Triple Threat, with the KC Border Title, AND the spotlight on the line.
Petey drops the mic and heads into the ring. The ref calls for the bell, and we are underway with a KC Border Title match in the Cyclone Spotlight. Petey heads right for Strong, who quickly turns the tide and lays into him with chops. Low Ki spins Petey around, and hits a few strikes of his own. They continue alternating on Petey, until Ki sees an advantage, and nails a swift kick to Strong, knocking him through the ropes and to the floor. The match continues in 3 way fashion, with Ki dominating for the most part on Petey. Petey takes a powder into the arms of Trish Stratus, and regroups. The Finish: After more heated action in the ring between the 3 men, Ki sets Strong up on the corner, pulling him down into the tree of woe. Petey attempts to move Ki, and climbs up into the “Oh Canada” position, but Ki isn’t having it, and pulls Petey out of the way, shoving him back towards the opposite turnbuckle. Ki charges Petey out of nowhere and lays him into the corner with a charging dropkick to the chest. Ki goes back to Strong, climbs to the top, and steps on Strong’s knee, forcing him up. He leaps off with the Ghetto Stomp, right on Strong’s face. 1...2...NO!! Trish Stratus just pulled Low-Ki off of Strong in mid-cover. This match was over. Ki slides out of the ring, and grabs Trish by the hair. Trish is screaming, and Ki doesn’t look happy. Petey runs and nails a baseball slide dropkick on Ki. He picks him up and slides him into the ring. Petey gets on the ring apron, and Ki is getting to his feet. Petey tries to shoulder him in the stomach to set up a sunset flip, but Ki blocks with a knee to the head. He grabs Petey and suplexes him back into the ring, but Petey falls on Ki in mid suplex. 1...2...3!!! Petey just pinned Low Ki! And now we see that Trish Stratus has ahold of Low Ki’s legs, holding him into place as Petey got the pin. She swept his feet right out from under him!
Petey Williams defeats Low Ki by pinfall in 12:21 to retain the KC Border Title. (71/73/85)
Post-Match: Strong is finally coming to from the Ghetto Stomp, and rolls out of the ring, disappointed in his showing. Petey walks over and has the ref raise his hand, and the referee hands him the KC Border Title. Petey turns around with Low Ki standing right behind him. Petey makes a gesture like “Hey man, no hard feelings” and sticks his hand out to Ki. Ki looks at his hand, and then out of nowhere swings around a hard roundhouse kick to Petey’s head. The crowd cheers as Petey hits the mat and his title flies into the air. Low Ki bails out of the ring, and shoots a look at Trish, who immediately runs around the outside to the other side of the ring. Ki walks to the back without acknowledging anyone in the crowd.
Styles: Well, the Cyclone Spotlight now has the KC Border Title hold, Petey Williams securely entrenched in it. I guess Petey got his wish, because he knows he’ll be on the show next week, as he’ll be opening it up in the Cyclone Spotlight. Right now lets go back to the ring for more action, as Cyclone continues...
Brent Albright’s Open Challenge
Brent Albright aggressively walks to the ring and stands, staring at the entranceway, interested to see who will answer his challenge from last week. A quick video shows Albright’s interview, or lack of one, and his challenge for “anyone that has a problem with what he did to Ken Shamrock” to come out here. Albright looks disappointed and surprised to see Chance Beckett walking to the ring. Beckett rolls into the ring and looks at Albright, and asks for a microphone from ringside. He sounds nervous and uneasy on the microphone, but slowly sounds more comfortable:
Beckett: Listen man, I don’t want any problems, and I don’t have anything against you Brent Albright. You’re a hell of a wrestler, and we pass each other in the back every day, but I never really had the guts to tell you what I thought of you at Insurgency a few weeks ago. You said if anyone had a problem with what you did to Ken Shamrock, to come out here and tell you. Frankly, I have a problem with it, man. I don’t know Ken personally, but you can’t imagine what I would’ve given for the opportunity that you had. I trained in the dungeon in Calgary, Alberta Canada. The same place Ken Shamrock trained under the Harts when he started with the WWF. He is a master technician and a hell of a fighter, and I intend on modeling myself around him and other guys like him. If I had the chance to learn with him, to have him tutor me, I certainly wouldn’t have thrown it away by trying to make a name for myself. What you did was cold, uncalled for, and—
Beckett can’t finish, as Albright knocks him head off with a hard clothesline to begin the match. Albright handles the match pretty handily, as Beckett never had a chance to get started, and can’t rebound from Albright’s brutal mat-based attack. Albright works on the arm, but shifts gears out of nowhere, nailing a dropkick that appears to be targeted right on the ankle. The Finish: Albright attacks the ankle, smashing it over the ring ropes and putting pressure on it. He drags Beckett to the middle of the ring and hooks on the anklelock. Beckett taps out after fighting it for a bit.
Brent Albright defeats Chance Beckett by submission in 4:45. (56/52/74)
Post-Match: Albright refuses to let go as the ref attempts to pull him off of Beckett. The crowd suddenly roars, as we see Ken Shamrock coming down the aisle, along with Maven and Billy Kidman. Kidman & Maven are attempting to hold him back, but Shamrock is walking intently to the ring, with his arm still in a sling. Albright is finally getting off of Beckett, and hasn’t even noticed Shamrock. Shamrock fights through the two wrestlers, and climbs up on the apron. It is almost as if Albright feels it, as he stops dead in his tracks and slowly turns around, to see Shamrock on the apron. Albright slowly walks towards him, as Shamrock looks to be calling Albright every name in the book, albeit under his breath. Albright gets right up to Shamrock’s face, and they stare at each other. They start exchanges words, with Albright cracking a smile, and right as it begins to escalate, Maven & Kidman pull Shamrock off the apron, and officials come rushing out. Luckily they don’t have to get involved, as order is restored, and Shamrock is escorted to the back by the other wrestlers.
Tazz: Well, Albright said a mouthful in the ring with his performance over Beckett, but how about that post-match altercation? Shamrock isn’t even cleared to return to the ring yet from his separated shoulder, but it is obvious he has something to say to his former student, Brent Albright. Let’s head backstage...
Backstage Segment: The Champ comes a knockin
Jeremy Borash is trailing Triple H with a camera crew as he walks through the backstage area in his ring gear.
Triple H: Jesus, Borash. You’re everywhere.
Borash: Triple H, I just wanted to ask you about your thoughts on tonight’s huge main event. To say the odds are stacked against you would be an understatement.
Triple H: Ya sure about that?
Triple H shoves Borash away, and continues walking in the back until he once again comes to a door that reads STEVE CORINO. Triple H again pushes the camera away, and they back down the hall as we see the door open, and Triple H step inside.
Tag Team Contender’s Match:
Mexicools v Full Blooded Italians v World’s Greatest Tag Team v Danny Doring & Roadkill
All 4 teams make their entrances to the ring, as we see a pre-taped interview in the lower right hand corner of the screen from the CSW Tag Team Champions, the Natural Born Thrillers:
O’Haire: You know, last week, we said there would be no more freebies. No more open challenges, no more non-title matches, no more handouts. You want a shot at the champs? Well then you have to earn it.
Jindrak: So we pitched a rather brilliant idea to President Hart, and of course he loved it. 4 of the top teams in CSW compete in an elimination match. If you get eliminated first, you’re #4 on the list. If you win, you’re the #1 Contender, and can have a shot at our titles. I think you all can fill in the rest. Pretty damn generous of us if you ask me. Good luck boys.
After all the ring entrance are done, the matchups is underway. A heated tag team match, with many frequent tags. The first elimination comes with the FBI double teaming Danny Doring in the corner. After frequent tags, Guido comes off the top, nailing the Sicilian Slice for the elimination.
Eliminated – Danny Doring & RoadKill (Guido pins Doring at 4:54)
Super Crazy immediately jumps on Guido, and they rattle off an impressive sequence in the middle of the ring, ending with a stalemate. Psicosis comes in, and Mamaluke tags in for Guido. After more impressive back and forth action, Mamaluke hits the ropes, and Charlie Haas makes a blind tag. Mamaluke gets rocked in a tiltawhirl backbreaker by Psicosis, but he turns around right into a crossbody block off the top rope by Haas for the 3 count!
Eliminated – Mexicools (Haas pins Psicosis at 8:32)
Down to the FBI and World’s Greatest Tag Team, Haas and Mamaluke go at it, with it turning into a pier six brawl with both teams in the ring. The Finish: Mamaluke and Guido dump Haas to the outside, and Mamaluke goes up top, nailing a body press onto Haas on the outside. Shelton clotheslines Guido over, and then hits the ropes. He launches over the top with a no hands plancha, taking out everyone on the floor. Guido crawls back into the ring first, and Joel Gertner hops on the ring apron to talk to the official. Mark Jindrak & Sean O’Haire come bolting down the entranceway and put the boots to Shelton Benjamin, who is still down from his impressive maneuver. They pick him up and nails a double team spinebuster on the floor, and then roll him into the ring, with Gertner still holding onto the official. They slide under the ring, and Guido makes the pin on Benjamin. Haas gets to his feet and attempts to get into the ring to break it up, but both Thrillers have ahold of his feet from under the apron. 1...2...3!
FBI defeats World’s Greatest Tag Team when Guido pins Benjamin at 11:04 to become #1 Contender’s to the CSW Tag Team Championship. (72/73/87)
Styles: Well there you have it. Haas & Benjamin had a huge oppurtunity following last week’s butt-whipping at the hands of the Tag Team Champs, but the Thrillers ensured that they won’t be defending against the WGTT. The FBI are the number one contenders, and are jumping around like they just won the super bowl.
In-Ring Segment: Enter New Jack
New Jack walks down to ringside, looking at pissy as ever, and looks kind of naked without his trademark trash can full of weapons. He rolls into the ring to some surprisingly loud heat from the crowd. They really don’t like this guy. He grabs a mic, which has to put the censors immediately on alert.
New Jack: Kiss my ass Kansas City. I don’t give a damn what ya’ll think, and I sure as shit don’t care if you boo me. (Louder boos). I’m here tonight to talk about one person. The Sandman. (loud pop). Last week Sandman, you got your sorry white wrinkled up ass involved in my match, and made me lose a hardcore match to Maven. I don’t even think that kid is black, but he sure as s**t hit me like he was stealing something from me. Sandman, I aint got time for your bulls**t. I’ve seen it all before. You’re all hype, and no substance. You tried to steal my spotlight in ECW, and now you have to bring your cracker ass to CSW and do it again? Over the years, as the legacy of ECW has gotten slapped around like a whore at Raven’s house, alot of things have been misrepresented. Somehow, YOU’RE the hardcore icon? Kiss my ass. You were doing silly s**t like getting “blinded” by Tommy Dreamer, and bringing your wife and kid onto TV. You know what I was doing? I was cutting fat kids open and sending them to the E.R. I was jumping off balconies. I was sacrificing my body, and putting on a show. And everytime that music hit, people knew they were gonna get a f***in show that they’d never forget. (a few cheers start to pop up). I’m not talking about you, you sorry ass motherf***ers. I’m talking about real fans: Philly fans. You all can still kiss my black ass. Sandman, you want to get involved in my business? You want to be “hardcore” by pointing a goddam stick at my head? It’ll be the last time you ever point that f***in stick at anybody, cause I’m gonna break it off and –
ENTER SANDMAN begins playing throughout the arena, and the fans explode again. New Jack immediately begins looking around the crowd, and sees an area starting to look behind them. Sandman walks out of an entry in the crowd with a beer in one hand, and singapore cane in the other. New Jack throws his mic down and goes through the ropes. He is going through the crowd!!! He gets halfway up the steps and meets Sandman on his way down. They immediately starting beating the holy hell out of each other as the fans around them go nuts. Security tries to rush the area, but is scattered around the arena, and is a bit late getting there. Sandman takes the upper hand for a bit, but New Jacks nails a kick to the nuts, and they brawl down through the crowd towards the front entry to the arena. The camera gets stuck in the mass of people, and can’t keep up, as we see New Jack, Sandman, and a herd of security guards fighting towards the doors of the arena.
(78)
Tazz: As a former ECW alumnist, I can tell you that this thing does indeed run deep between these guys. In ECW, we all worked towards a common goal, but now that the history books have been written, New Jack seems to be quite pissed off by Sandman’s arrival here in CSW.
Masato Tanaka v Elix Skipper
Tanaka makes his way down the ring to a big pop from the crowd. Skipper gets good heel heat, and the match is underway. The announcers talk up Tanaka’s return to CSW, and how he hasn’t done much since his intense feud with Samoa Joe a few months ago. Tanaka shakes off the ring rust quickly, taking an early flurry from Skipper, and responding with a hard elbow to the face. He whips Skipper to the corner, and hits a charging elbow, before going to the middle rope and dropping yet another elbow into Skipper’s jaw for a 2 count. The Finish: Skipper nails a thumb to the eye and takes control again, but it doesn’t last long. Skipper tries to whip Tanaka to the turnbuckle, but Tanaka reverses, and Skipper walks up the turnbuckle, doing a backflip. But Tanaka didn’t follow him in like most do. He stopped halfway, and Skipper landed right in front of him, befuddled. Tanaka grabbed him and hit a HUGE release German suplex, putting Skipper right on his head. He pulled him into the middle of the ring and covered. 1..2..3!
Masato Tanaka defeats Elix Skipper by pinfall in 5:46. (71/77/81)
Post-Match: As Tanaka gets his hand raised, he is cut off by a voice. The crowd looks to the entranceway, and Petey Williams emerges, with a microphone in his hand once again.
Petey: Congratulations on your win there Tanaka. Did you people here like seeing him back in the ring? (the crowd explodes, wary of Petey’s intent). You know, that’s something I’m never going to understand. Why the crowd loves you so damn much. (big pop). I’m not even quite sure why CSW wasted a draft pick on you when they put together this territory. I mean, what exactly have you done? You scarred your body up in FMW doing death matches and other brainless things to harm your body. Then you go on to ECW and get dropped on your head a few times by some chump named Mike Awesome, and that makes you a star? (big pop from the crowd again). You people shut the hell up. This is between me and Tanaka. Or do you even understand me in there? Let me simplify it for you.
Petey puts the mic down to his side, and simply holds up two middle fingers directly at Tanaka. Tanaka jumps through the ropes and heads for Petey, but Petey is quickly gone out the entrance way as the fans chant “Ta-Na-Ka, Ta-Na-Ka” as he exits the ringside area.
Backstage Segment: Let’s Do This
A backstage camera shot shows Samoa Joe warming up, standing alongside Austin Aries, Roderick Strong, and Alex Shelley. Shelley is still on crutches, and all 3 are barking words of encouragement to Joe.
Aries: Hey man, this is the night. I know we’ve had alot of battles, and alot of them for championships, and I sure wouldn’t mind stepping into the ring with you again for a title.
Shelley: I’m pretty sure we all wouldn’t mind that. This is what we talked about though, J-man. Get that damn title off of Triple H, and lets show this territory, hell, lets show the whole country what we’re all about in the ring.
Strong: You’re the—
Strong stops speaking the minute he sees Brock Lesnar approaching behind Joe. Lesnar slaps Joe on the back.
Lesnar: You ready for this, boy?
Joe stops cold, and pulls the towel off from around his neck, but Lesnar just keeps on walking. Joe walks directly behind Lesnar. The Main Event is NEXT!
Shelley: (yelling down the hallway)Yeah, you go get em Joe! (aside to Generation Next) Good gravy that guy is big.

Main Event: CSW Championship Tag Team Match:
Triple H © & Steve Corino v Samoa Joe & Brock Lesnar
Brock Lesnar is out first to a full ring intro, followed by Samoa Joe. Both get huge pops, and it is hard to say just who gets the bigger reaction. The two men avoid each other like the plague in the ring, and don’t seem to intent on having much chemistry tonight. Next out is Steve Corino, who the crowd absolutely kills upon his entrance. He soaks it in and steps in the ring, staring down Brock Lesnar. Triple H makes his entrance last, looking confident but deserted by the lack of Degeneration X at his side. He gets in the ring, and shakes hands with Corino as they discuss things in the corner. The referee holds the belt up over his head, and the announcers go over the rules of the match once again. The man who makes the pinfall or submission will be the CSW Champion.
Corino starts out in the ring with Samoa Joe. Joe overpowers Corino into the corner, and after a clean break, slaps Joe across the face. Joe turns his head, and then looks back at Corino, and spits in his face, before pounding him with a flurry of alternating chops and punches. He whips him to the buckle, and charges in with a high knee. Corino falls to the mat, and Joe covers. 1....kickout. Triple H was already on his way into the ring, as was Brock Lesnar. This could be an interesting match. Joe stays on Corino, and nails a hard snap powerslam. He covers, 1...2..no. Joe jumps up out of the cover as he sees Triple H getting into the ring, and floors him with a hard clothesline. He takes Triple H and throws him over the top rope to the floor. Joe picks up Corino and whips him into his team’s turnbuckle, where he places Corino on the top rope. As Joe grabs him for a Musclebuster, Lesnar slaps Joe’s shoulder and tags in. Joe sets Corino back down, and stares a hole into Lesnar. Lesnar walks around Joe, and grabs Corino. He climbs up on the middle rope and nails a superplex. 1...2..No! Corino kicks out, and Triple H slid back into the ring to make sure the cover didn’t happen.
At 6 minutes, the theme continues, with Triple H breaking up pinfalls on Corino. Corino finally catches a break when Lesnar puts his head down, and Corino nails a swinging neckbreaker. He then goes on the offensive against the man he knows all too well. Corino works over the neck of Brock Lesnar, slapping on an Octopus hold on the massive man. Corino tells the ref to check Lesnar, but Joe has seen enough and walks into the ring and nails Corino on the back with an open hand slap, causing him to break the hold. Triple H is shouting at Corino to come tag in, and Corino begrudgingly walks over and tags Triple H. Triple H stays on Lesnar’s neck, locking in a bridged indian deathlock. Joe again waits a bit, and then walks in, and slaps Triple H hard across the stomach. The referee warns Joe not to do it again. Lesnar and Triple H battle it out, with Triple H hitting his knee facebuster on Lesnar, but it didn’t face him. Lesnar hits a massive clothesline, and then stumbles backwards into his corner for a tag.
Joe rushes the ring and nails Triple H with a hard clothesline. He chops him across the back while in a seated position, and then nails a hard kick to the chest. He bounces off the ropes and hits a kneedrop to the face. He covers, 1...2..no, Corino comes in and pulls Joe off of Triple H now. Joe nails a hard uppercut to Corino, sending him through the ropes. Joe turns around, and Triple H nails a kick to the stomach. He sets up for the Pedigree, but Joe counters, lifting him straight up into the air and walking him to a turnbuckle. He sets him up there, but Triple H fights off, not wanting to be in that position again. Triple H hits a thumb to the eye, and whips Joe to the corner. He charges, but Joe catches him with the S-T-Joe. He waits for Triple H to get to his feet, and runs off the ropes for a dropkick, but Triple H is a step ahead, and tries to slam Joe. But Joe drops behind him, and locks in the KOKINA CLUTCH!!! Triple H backs Joe into a corner, but looks like he is gonna tap out. Corino is still on the floor. Lesnar just tagged Joe in the back, again! Lesnar is the legal man. The referee makes Joe break the hold, and Lesnar scoops Triple H up for the F5. Before Joe leaves the ring, he pulls Triple H off of Lesnar’s shoulders.
The Finish: Lesnar and Joe stare down in the middle of the ring, with Triple H lying on the mat. Corino charges out of nowhere and hits a double knee to Lesnar’s back, sending him crashing into Joe, and Joe through the ropes to the floor. Corino rolls Lesnar up. 1...2...Kickout! Joe gets to his feet on the floor, but is suddenly ambushed by 3 fans that jumped out of the crowd. Wait a minute! It’s Degeneration X!. X-pac, Billy Gunn, and Road Dogg attack Joe in the aisle as the referee attempts to restore order. They aren’t even supposed to be here. Austin Aries, and Roderick Strong come running down the aisle with Alex Shelley hobbling alongside on his crutches. They crash into DX like two sides of a huge battle coming together, and a brawl erupts on the floor. Joe is down on the mat, and Lesnar just nailed a powerbomb on Corino in the ring. He covers him, but the ref is still trying to separate the men at ringside. He slides into the ring. 1...2..Kickout by Corino.
X-pac nails Alex Shelley in the knee, dropping him, and jumps up on the apron. The referee is telling him to get down, but Shelley begins fiddling with the top turnbuckle. The referee is holding on to the turnbuckle pad, but X-pac looks like he is doing something behind the turnbuckle pad. The ref has no choice to desert X-pac in the corner, as Lesnar scoops Corino up for the F5! He nails it in the middle of the ring. 1....2....NO! Triple H jumps on top of Lesnar, breaking up the pin. The Outlaws, GenNext, and Joe continue brawling on the floor. All of a sudden, the top rope comes lose and flops into the ring. X-pac took the steel turnbuckle completely off of the steel ringpost. The referee is confused, and is trying to hook it back up, but the turnbuckle is missing. X-pac tosses the turnbuckle overhead to Triple H in the ring, and he turns and clocks Brock Lesnar right across the side of the face with it. He grabs Lesnar, and hits the Pedigree!!! He walks over to the ropes and drops the sttel turnbuckle to the outside to get rid of the evidence, but Steve Corino comes and pushes him from behind, sending him flying over the 2nd rope to the outside. Corino falls on top of Lesnar. The ref gives up on the rope and turns around. 1....2....3!!!! CORINO WINS?!
Steve Corino pins Brock Lesnar in 18:12. (78/89/84)
Post-Match: The referee talks to the ring announcer, and he makes his official announcement as Triple H stands on the outside in disbelief.
Howard Finkel: Your winner of the match.......and NEW CSW Champion. Steve Corino!
Triple H is outraged, but can’t even get to Corino, as Joe has grabbed him from behind. X-pac jumps into the melee, and Corino doesn’t know what to do in the center of the ring. He just celebrates with the CSW Championship, holding it high above his head as war breaks out on the outside. Corino stands over Brock Lesnar, holding the title right down in his face. The fight continues on the outside until it is stopped by an outraged voice.
In-Ring Segment: Enough is Enough
Voice: Enough! Stop! Stop right now, or I swear to God I’ll cut everyone one of you!
The fans look to the video screen, expecting to see President Hart, but instead, he makes a rare appearance in the arena, walking out onto the stage.
Hart: I’ve had enough, and this s**t has got to stop RIGHT NOW!
The two rival factions stop brawling when they hear Hart, knowing that he really means business this time. They each end up separating to two side of the ring, and Corino steps off of Lesnar, backing into the corner, holding his title tight, fearful of what might be coming. Triple H immediately begins pleading his case from over 100 feet away about what just transpired.
Hart: You all are like a bunch of animals. Degeneration X, you’re SUSPENDED. You aren’t even supposed to be in the arena. I should fire each and every one of you right now. And Triple H, don’t think I don’t see your mouth moving over there. It’s official, it’s final, and it stands, Steve Corino is the new CSW Champion.
Corino holds the title up, looking serious and proud for the first time so far, as Triple H continues to bitch about the “damn rope not even being on” all the while looking up at Corino, wanting to kill him for stealing his title. Lesnar begins to stir on the mat, finally crawling up to a knee.
Hart: But don’t get too excited Corino. Because I’m going to sign your first title defense right now. At “Art of War”, CSW’s first PPV, you will defend the CSW Title against the rightful #1 Contender, Brock Lesnar (huge cheer).
Joe looks up into the ring, not happy that he isn’t the one getting a shot at the title. Triple H is still really pissed off.
Hart: But this issue with you two has reached a boiling point, and obviously needs to be settled. You two want to act like animals? You guys want to rip each other limp from limm and bloody each other? Fine, then I’ll treat you like animals. Because it is going to be a DOG COLLAR MATCH for the CSW Championship. (HUGE POP from the crowd). Oh but I’m not done yet. Let me get to you 8 standing at ringside. DX, you disobeyed me. Generation Next, you aren’t innocent either. You all have to stop interfering in matches, especially each other’s matches. It is time to settle this, and we’re going to do it in the only place fit for a bunch of animals. If you can’t follow the rules, then there will be no rules. You’ve left me no choice, and drive me to the breaking point. At “Art of War”, it is going to be a rematch from Insurgency. Degeneration X v Generation Next & Samoa Joe...IN WARGAMES!!!
Hart drops his mic as the crowd EXPLODES. Lesnar is crawling to his feet, and the two factions stare at each other from opposite sides of the floor.

:Solución Suicida interrupts and says professional wrestling is about fun and beating each other up, and that in itself is truth, beauty, and love...for professional wrestling. Les Bohémiens are insulted and say truth, beauty, and love is life, not professional wrestling; professional wrestling is merely a segway to life, life is not professional wrestling. Life is truth, beauty, and love.:

Heenan: This week I've assigned a one-on-one match between on half of The Outsiders and one half of Les Bohèmiens in a match. There, I beat you to it JR. No-one was listening to you anyhow.
"Sugar" Shane Helms w/ Melina Perez def. Kevin Nash at 7:59 when Nash set-up Helms for the Jackknife Powerbomb as Melina sat-up on the middle ring rope and began flirting with Nash. Nash dropped Helms and moved to Melina. Melinda pointed behind and Nash turned so Helms could hit the Shining Black on Nash. After the match, Scott Hall came down to the ring and chased off Helms and Melina.

Kane def. Rey Mysterio at 10:08 with the Tombstone when Hogan went to attack Kane with the bloodied steel chair (that Kane busted-open Hogan with) on the ring arpon, but was booted in the face by Kane while holding the steel chair, knocking him off the ring apron. Mysterio tried to use the distracted Kane as his opportunity to capitalize with the 619, but was caught by Kane. (Literally, Kane caught him in mid-move.) Kane hoisted Rey over his head and tossed him over the rope at Hogan, once again knocking him down, as he was starting to recover from the chair shot. Mysterio was tossed back into the ring over the top rope by Kane, and was then Tombstoned for the win.

:Christian Cage is in the ring. Cage is once again telling he is displeased by the disappearance of John Cena. Cage calls him out, and let everyone knows that he is a coward. Cage says he is becoming so frustrated with Cena's no-showing that he's been unable to write raps.:

Ross: Brain, where is John Cena?
Heenan: Got me, haven't seen him since the Master and Commander.
Ross: Please tell me that you're not paying him still.
Heenan: I have to, it's the deal; he's under contract. He's taking money from M-A and NEW and no-showing both of us!
Ross: Well, let's move onto our main event for the evening.
Heenan: The one that you made sure I signed last week.
Ross: Because you won't do anything to make sure Orton stays away from Sting, and that Daniels doesn't stay away from Styles.
Heenan: If anything, Orton should be worrying about Sting. He doesn't go to his lockerroom, hang-out in the rafters carrying around a black baseball bat. What about Randy Orton's safety, huh?! And Daniels is Mid-Atlantic champion, he can do anything he wants. That title is like holding a carte blanche with us.
Ross: You mean with you.
Heenan: Oh, shut up!
Sting and "Phenomenal" AJ Styles def. "God's Gift to Wrestling" Daniels & "The Legend Killer" Randy Orton at 15:04 when Styles pinned Orton with the Styles Clash when Sting pointed the black baseball bat at Daniels and Daniels refused to be tagged into the match by Orton, leaving Orton with Sting and Styles and put in the Styles Clash.

Ross: Look, at that, our champion thinks he is so good, he refused a tag to face Sting and Styles in the last minute of the match.
Heenan: He can do that, he champion.
Ross: Oh whatever, Brain. Fans, we'll see you next week!
