*Fade in to the backstage area at Toronto’s Maple Leaf Gardens (cheap pop) where we find PWW Heavyweight Champion Daniel Bryan SMILING~!, and deservedly so…

Bryan: You know what? That was a really fun match concept. That said, I’m really glad I didn’t have to stick around until the end. I’m absolutely ecstatic to be the new PWW Heavyw–

*Bryan is interrupted by the appearance of Dolph Ziggler and his bodyguard, Roman Reigns…

Dolph: “Didn’t have to stick around until the end”? Bryan, I’m sick and tired of hearing guys like you say stuff like that around here. Roman and I wanted to stick around until the end of the Championship Scramble. We wanted to be tag champs. But now? Now what I want is that PWW Heavyweight Championship. And you’re going to lose it to me at PWW’s The Fallout from the First Pay-Per-View.

Bryan: First of all, Dolph, I’m the only guy around here saying stuff like that, and I only said it once, so I don’t know how you can be sick of it. Second, if you think you can beat me for my PWW Heavyw–

*Bryan is interrupted again, this time by PWW Tag Team Champions Ken Shamrock and Haku…

Shamrock: Wait, you wanted to be tag champs? I don’t buy that for a second. Hell, neither one of us wanted these belts. We wanted the PWW Heavyweight Championship. But now that we have these belts, we’re gonna hold on to them against all comers. You two first.

Dolph: No way, Shamrock. I’m fighting Bryan for the PWW Heavyw–

Shamrock: Scroll up, dumbass. You said if I beat Roman, I get you. Well I did. So I do.

Dolph: Oh come on! You didn’t really beat him! You got in one lucky shot!

Shamrock: He tapped out to an ankle lock.

Dolph: Fine. I meant you had to beat him in a singles match.

Shamrock: We were the last two guys out there. Doesn’t get more singles than that.

Dolph: Screw this! I’m going to talk to…whoever’s in charge!

*Dolph and Reigns storm off. Shamrock gives Bryan the nod of much respect and heads off in the other direction…

Bryan: So as I was saying, it’s an honor to be the PWW Heavyw–

*This time, it’s Taz who interrupts…

Taz: Heluva show out there, champ. Wanna see what we can do for that belt at PWW’s The Fallout from the First Pay-Per-View?

Bryan: Yes.

…

…

…

Taz: Go ahead. You earned it.

Bryan: YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES! YES!

*FADE*

The Beautiful Dollhouse (Taryn Terrell, Marti Belle, Madison Rayne, Velvet Sky & Angelina Love) approach Trish Stratus.

Taryn: Trish, we need to talk.

Trish: That’s funny. I don’t think we do.

Trish attempts to walk past, but Madison and Angelina stop her. Trish pulls away from Angelina but is thrown back by Marti. Trish assumes a fighting stance.

Velvet: This isn’t an ambush, Trish. If it was, you’d be dead already.

Taryn: We just have one simple grievance. See, we would have no problem with how you’re being treated . . . if it was 2002. But we’re post-Divas Revolution. More importantly, we’re post-Knockouts Revolution. And the idea that Trish Stratus, of all wrestlers, would be treated like someone special . . . it’s a joke, and you know it’s a joke.

Marti: And you WILL give your spot in the match against AJ to Taryn!

Trish: I don’t think so, bitch.

Velvet: Huh. Maybe this is an ambush.

At this point, Lacey, Emma and Becky Lynch come up behind Trish. Becky Lynch is carrying a massive two-by-four.

Becky: Well well well. You ladies seem a little bit . . .

Becky drops the wood on the ground.

Angelina: I don’t follow.

Becky: BOARD! Get it?

Madison: Becky, nobody likes you.

Becky: Look, you’re picking fights since none of you have matches, I get it. Meself, I’m facin’ Winter, but my girls here Emma and Lacey are more than happy to face any of the two of ye.

Taryn: Ooh, a tag team match. What a consolation. Last time I checked, Becky, five is still more than four, so I don’t see why we shouldn’t just take what we want right now –

Winter: Because then you’re no better.

Everyone turns and looks at Winter sitting alone on a crate.

Winter: I am as angry about Trish just being given this opportunity as all of you are. But if you just take it from her without proving yourselves, that is no better. Take the tag match. Show us you deserve what you demand. I will show the same against this little Irish mouse.

Becky: Who you calling mouse?

Emma: I think you.

Becky: What?

Emma: I think she was calling you a mouse.

Lacey: It was rhetorical, Emma.

We are LIVE backstage at the Cow Palace in San Francisco



SoCal Val: Ladies and gentlemen it is my pleasure to welcome you to Golden State Wrestling! It my distinct honor to introduce a man that really needs no introduction, "The Nature Boy" Ric...



Flair: The pleasure really is all yours. In every way imaginable...

SoCal Val rolls her eyes, but Flair doesn't seem to notice (or care)

Flair: When The Nature Boy heard about what was going on here on the West Coast he put on his Armani suit, slid on his Rolex watch, hopped in his limousine, boarded his private jet and made sure he was the first to arrive. The Nature Boy is the man, and to be the man you gotta beat the man! Wooooo!




CM Punk: Hold on there just a minute, Ric. You may think you're "the man", but anyone with even half a brain knows that I'm 'The Best in the World'. And I'm not just here to say it...I'll prove it to you.

Flair: You've got guts, kid. The Nature Boy will give you that. But you don't have brains. You don't think I came here alone, did you?

Suddenly, three men appear behind Flair



Scott Hall: Hey yo.

CM Punk: Oh god dammit...

(The scene fades in and we are greeted by a view of the AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. A group of press/media members is assembled)

Reporter 2: That is short notice. Do you think you will get a crowd?

Ivory: It is short notice, but sometimes that is how things go. Our Card is set and will be announced by partner later today. right now, we invite you all to come inside and meet the competitors.

Reporter 3: Who is your partner?

Ivory: She is running late, her flight was delayed but you will meet her when she gets here.

Reporter: So, two women are running the company?

Ivory: That's right. Women have been involved in other companies, but in one, it was Daddy who really pulled the strings and in another, well we know what a mess that is...this company will show you how women who really know wrestling, run a company! Now, if you will..follow me..

(Ivory steps down and leads the group into the arena)
