Week One
"Ladies and Gentleman, Last night, NWA Fall Brawl was surely an epic Pay Per View indeed that's why I stand before you all tonight. There have been some rumors floating around the internet lately and I came out here to address them. Quite frankly, I have also invited a special guest to Nitro tonight, so please, everyone rise up and welcome, The President of Ring Of Honor Wrestling...James Buchanan!"
[Play Out]
James comes out in casual clothing getting a mixed reaction from the crowd as James gets into the ring and shake hands with DM before being given the microphone
“DM it’s great to be back in NWA again and what a reason to be back, Now as you know I have been heavily involved in emails and phone calls and you would have heard me talking about December 19th, well I can reveal what the surprise is. Remember what happened last year, well it returns as I am proud to announce that ROH and NWA will join together again for one night only to host Worlds Collide 2, December 19th at the O2 Arena in London England. What is Worlds Collide, simple, its not an invasion, its not one company burying another, its two companies joining together for on evening and providing the best wrestling for your fans, think of it as an extra Christmas present for all wrestling fans out here”
DM is seen nodding his head in approval as the fans are heard chanting for both companies as James hands the microphone back to DM.
"Now...everyone here has to know that James here is one crazy bastard, and I myself, well, nuff said, but anyway, Round 2 will be underway and last year, the main Event was John Cena against Nigel McGuinness, to which..he won of course. HOWEVER! We thought up a HUGE main event and it's going to involve two of the biggest stars in NWA and ROH-"
{Play Punk Out}
"Oh...Hell.....no. First off...why in the hell are you bringing this trash to the NWA? This trash that stands here and actually THINKS he's the reason for ROH reserging into the fame that it is now. Mr. Indy Wrestling, Mr. small venue, Mr. The Tag Team Championships are worth more than the World Champion himself! BULLSHIT! What kind of moron books two people over the WORLD Champion? Seriously? I mean, hold up just one moment, you're going to sit there and tell and preach to my about ROH and you don't even have it's crowning jewel in CM Punk? Do you remember the dammed Draft when this whole thing started? You, Mr. ROH who praises it above sex and God, and you didn't even THINK about picking me up? No...No in fact, you picked up RVD......Jerry Lynn.....Beer Money....and Necro Butcher, Necro FUCKING BUTCHER and he doesn't even wrestle in the fucking promotion anymore and then I was picked up by NWA and you have the BALLS to sit there and praise your precious ROH. Face it, when you didn't pick me up, you dropped the ball and that's why I, CM Punk, is leading NWA into the mainland and why you are stuck and that stupid internet wiretap called Youtube and cant' get a decent television deal. What, in the hell, do you have to say that Mr. ROH, remind you, the last time I saw RVD...I beat his ass in the center of your ring!"
“Are you done Punk, now if I remember when you left ROH you went to a mainstream company and everyone was saying that you sold out. I never said that, I always thought you could work well in a bigger promotion and look what happened you became a world champion and a tag team champion, then you move to NWA and you have had one of the best runs in recent memory, one of the longest reigning US champions in history and current World Heavyweight Champion, which reminds me, at the first Worlds Collide when Cena was champion….Cena LOST! To an Indy promotion, now oh saviour of all boredom what do you have to say to all your so called fans out there, oh by the way you can bitch and moan about how we do things different, that makes us unique!”
"Unique? Unique!? ROH is deffinately unqiue alright, the only problem is, you cling to the glory days that once was and you're nothing more than a simple Indy Promotion that is a the breeding ground for the likes of NWA, the superior brand in all professional wrestling. You two jackoff's can go blow each other for all I care, the simple reason is, I WON"T be at World's Collide this year because I have more important things to do with my life than return to that would be internet smark show you call wrestling."
[Play Out Orton]
Orton comes out the curtain and slowly walks down the aisle way carrying his World Heavyweight Championship as he gets to the ringside area but instead of getting into the ring he slowly walks around the ring taking his time and surveying his surroundings before getting into the ring. We see James in the ring applauding his world champion, even though Orton has caused him so many problems he is the ROH World Champion so he does have respect from James himself. Orton slowly walks around the ring as his music dies down and he grabs the microphone
“My…My…My, what do we have here, some messiah of wrestling convincing us that it’s wrong to take drugs and do drink, No I really like the message you give, Shame that these fans don’t give a flying FUCK as to what you say. James might not say it but I will, you SOLD OUT! I here time and again that CM Punk was the face of this promotion but when the facts come out you done very little to this promotion, it was guys like Christopher Daniels, Low-Ki, Brian Kendrick who built this company and yet since I have been in ROH, I have beaten every found father there is except one but he is on a different brand. You say you’re the best in the business, as far as I can tell you’ve only been World Champion for what 2-3 months, beating Jeff Hardy who in all honesty isn’t that hard to beat, I know that one, if you want to talk about dominant champions look no further then Randy Orton two time ROH World Heavyweight Champion, the longest reigning champion since ROH came back last year, I’ve held this belt for half a year, double as long as you have, so Cookie Monster Punk, the next time you open your big mouth you might want to think about what you say because it maybe the last words to ever come out of your mouth, that’s some advice from one world champion to another”
"Oh don't even toss your banner of ROH freedom at me Randy. You aren't even worth the paper your name is printed on. First off, I'm one of the longest reigning United States Champions in history, and second, you were beaten by a man whom didn't have the courage to even SHOW UP to his match and instead, I wrestled a war with John Cena..a man you could never scratch in potential..and I destroyed. You think you're a hot potatoe don't you Randy...do you remember...when you were moved to WWF, and you...and Triple H were all together, and then one day, during the trade....you were sent to ROH, and eventually, Triple H found his way there as well, and you know what the best part is Randy, while WWF got rid of you...they kept..Super Dragon, a man that only wrestled ONCE and they saw more potential in him than they did in you, and lets face it, it's not as if..you've pulled in the ratings since moving to ROH...Oooh yeah that's right, your last Pay Per View is still buffering. Yeah, go ahead and tell me that I sold out, but I tell you right now Randy...if I made myself a free agent, don't think, your boss, would jump at the chance to pick me up."
“That’s very sweet of you Punk, bringing up the past like that, reminds me of a certain someone but you need to know something, the past is done, its history, I live for the present and the future, you and me are the future of this business. When other people go and retire we will be the ones placing the butts in seats. But seeing as you don’t know that yet because your nothing more than an arrogant and cocky little kid who has been given too much power in a promotion that craves on power. Lets switch the tables, should I make myself a free agent, BOTH your bosses would be gagging over the chance of getting me signed to your company, that way I could beat your ass every day of the week and it would never get old. Yeah I got beat by Steamboat but who walked out of Worlds Collide at the end of that match…Me, wasn’t it you that beat Steamboat down before you match, now I am not expert but doesn’t that mean you were scared of Steamboat, losing your title after one month as a paper champion. Punk listen and listen good we could spend the next hour and forty five minutes reliving the past and boring ourselves to death with having to listen to you talk or we can do what we normally do in ROH which you know of and that is cut the crap and get to the action, so Punk why don’t you fight me now and then we shall see who really is the better wrestler or will I need to kick some sense into you by kicking you in the skull!”
Punk would take a step back and tossed his shirt aside, Steph warning him not to do anything stupid though the fans were starting to rally a little bit as Punk and Orton were ready to go as Punk spoke out.
"Not on your life. I'm not going to satisfy the wet dreams of these fans by kicking the crap out of you. Go find yourself another patsy, cause I'm sick and tired of fighting ex WWF Rejects."
Punk started to turn as DM spoke out.
"Actually Punk...you are going to be fighting Orton..and..it will be tonight..in the main event-"
"Maybe I didn't make myself clear boss. I said I'm not going to wrestle this trash tonight...tomorrow or any other night-"
"No you listen to me! Tonight, you ARE going to face Randy Orton and his tag team partner Triple H and a tag partner of your choosing in the Main event. If you win...you get to name Orton's opponent....if he wins...he gets to name yours. And if you back out of this match...you're fired."
Punk would drop the mic, ready to just slug at DM with all his rage, slowly turning around right into an RKO, Orton actually getting a bit of an ovation though that wasn't the worst of it, James speaking out, perhaps to announce...the first match of World's Collide.
“Punk you really put your foot in your mouth this time, because I don’t know if you can hear me but tonight is just a taste of what you will be in store for, I am now officially announcing the first match for Worlds Collide 2 in December, you see it will be an epic clash of champions, we will find out who really is the best champion of the two brands because at Worlds Collide in the main event it will be the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion CM Punk Vs the ROH Worlds Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton, so looks as if the Legend Killer will exterminate another legend come December”
James drops the microphone and raises the hand of Randy Orton whom out of nowhere takes James down with and RKO as DM is standing there shocked as Orton slowly gets onto his knees and takes the microphone getting into the face of James
“James what you don’t realise is that I am not doing it for ROH, no…no…no, I am doing it for The Revolution, more importantly I am doing it for myself come worlds collide someone will be taken out for good and Punk maybe the target”
Orton slowly rises to his feet and rises the ROH World Heavyweight Championship high as he smirks to the camera before leaving the ring as Punk and James are seen laid out in the middle of the ring and DM is standing in the ring bewildered at what Orton had said.
Matches
In liew of everything still there had to be matches on the show as ROH would team up with NWA to have co branded matches to help hype up World's Collide. The first match saw Low Ki squaring off again Rey Mysterio whom was still pretty banged up from his match with Misawa. In a good cruiserweight edition of Nitro, Mysterio was able to just catch the win.
The next match saw Shaemus with his newly acquired Full Impact Pro Title and went one on one with the Man They Call Vader. In what could be considered a 'stiff' bout indeed, the match would end in a draw, more so a double dq as both men would continue to slug it out with each other, the refs forcing it to break off.
The third match was a mixed tag that saw Vampriss and Drew teaming up against Beth Phoenix and Nigel McGuinness, prior to the match, DM warned Drew and Lea to behave themselves, though that only lasted about five minutes into the match as Nigel and Drew started to trade stiff blow, the women getting involved soon after. During a bit of confusion, Nigel was able to roll up Drew and caught a win though Lea ruined it by blinding him with the red mist, Drew tackling him to the ground as they fought to the back. Vampriss would smirk to herself, turning around and was dropped with the Glam Slam right in the center of the ring. Beth would take a mic and leaned down, speaking.
"There's a reason why your boss told you to behave yourself little girl. As of right now...I now work..for the NWA. Sweet dreams Princess."
Beth dropped the mic down and rose her palms up, leaving the ring as Vampriss was literally out cold from the attack.
The next match saw Priceless, doing their usual Priceless skit, saying that it didn't matter that a 'certain team' ran the guantlet or that you alligned yourself with a 'dark force' to retain titles, what mattered was that you were the best in the world and when it came to the best, they were on, they're 14th Month enclimbing. They were answered however by The World's Greatest Tag Team from ROH having a good standing ten minute bout, but thanks to some 'Dasterdly' tricks from Rhodes, Priceless was able to score a roll up victory, perhaps setting a tone that they were not to be triffled with...at least..for now.
CM Punk was in the back, holding his head in pain from the attack of Orton, trying to figure out whom he would bring as a tag partner when he was stopped by Andre and Bobby Heenan.
"What is it you two want?"
"Well you see here Mr. Punk, since we scratched your back last night, it's not time for you to scratch ours, namely, Andre's."
"Wait a minute what are you talking about Heenan? I thought Steph paid you the funds to take out Kane."
"Oh and we did, but, the payment just went up a little bit."
Punk would hand his title over to Steph whom was nursing a hurt neck as it was, Punk ran his fingers through his hair.
"Look, I'm kind of in the middle of something here tonight so can we deal with this later?"
"No Punk we don't have time for later, I'll cut to the chase, Andre here wants a title shot and I think he's earned it taking out the most dominate force in the NWA."
"A title shot? For what? Doing one thing? I'm sorry but that's not how it works around-"
Andre would then grab Punk by the throat and rose him up, pressing him against the wall. Punk would struggle some but Andre was way too powerful, speaking at him.
"Punk...I giv yu twu choice....broken neck....or broken back."
Andre wasn't fooling around as Punk would choke, unable to breathe as Andre let him down, slowly walking off, more so letting Punk know, he was on the hunt for the World Title.
The next match on the card saw Jeff Jarrett making a return to the ring, getting a loud array of jeers since he hadn't been seen since the Bash, spitting at some of the fans as his opponent was indeed an old NWA Favorite, Jerry Lynn. The match would last close to twenty minutes, both sides going back and forth with Lynn being able to pick up the win from out of no where, finding the strength to break out of the figure four and counter Jarrett into a german suplex, though his celebration was cut short when the Anderson's came down to ringside and started beat the hell out of Jerry Lynn. The crowd was a bit confused until they hit him with a double Spine Buster, holding him up as Jarrett bashed him over the head with the guitar as it all became clear, Jarrett was aligned, with the Anderson's as he took a mic.
"Shut up y'all. For months we've been planning this out and it seems the wheels are in motion already with this ROH trash in our NWA ring. We took out Flare, we took out LOD and now we took out the NWA sell out Jerry Lynn. Myself and the Anderson's are leading a charge into ROH and we're going to take that dammed company down and burn it to the ground just like I burned TNA to the ground. ROH is the cancer of this industry and I plan on quashing it into the ground. Don't piss us off."
Jarrett would drop the mic down as he left with the Anderson's behind him, and needless to say, with Arn and Ole as back up, whom was going to stand up to him?
Finally it was time for the main event as it was Team Orton against Team Punk whom would use Drew McIntyre as his tag partner, his second in command more or less. The buzz was huge as Orton and Punk stood in the middle of the ring, perhaps a chance already to see their match at World's Collide as they would strike to each other, both Punk and Orton exhausted from their matches, tagging out early as Drew and Triple H would run most of the match. Drew, actually finding a way to outwit Triple H, even if for a moment, starting to dish out the offense, tagging Punk in as they would double team him. Orton would try to help though Priceless pulled him from the apron, doing some quick damage and would flee before the ref caught it, Punk having it in the bag as he hit the GTS right on Triple H, the ref about to count when Shaemus came from the crowd, pulling Drew from the apron causing a distraction.
Drew was pulled from the equation as Punk was yelling out, telling the ref to do something but it gave Triple H a chance to capitalize, hitting Punk with the Pedigree as the ref went to cover, but Billy Kidman would hit a shooting star right on the ref, taking him out. Triple H went after him but Kidman came armed, blasting him with the Crusierweight Title and tackled him to the floor. Orton would slide into the ring, shaking his head and would prepare for the RKO, waiting for it as Punk rose up. Orton would strike but Punk would block and started to fight back against Orton.
Punk had him in his sights, needing to burn some time as the ref started to move a bit, Orton raking the eyes of Punk as the ref would check on him, Steph entering the ring and went to blast Orton with the World Title, getting an RKO for her troubles. Orton kicked her out of the ring as Punk would spring from the corner, catching Orton in the Anaconda Vice and locked in tightly as Orton was about to tap.
[Play Out]
Punk immediately broke the hold when he heard the pyro erupt, ready to run for his life but it was just a ploy, turning around and nearly fell for the RKO, blocking it and pushed him towards the ref, Orton put on the breaks and blocked out of the GTS, both men just starting to slug it out melee style as the ref told them to break it up, signalling for the bell, ruling it a double DQ. The fans would boo as Punk and Orton were just battling it out, trying to get over on the other.
[Play Out]
Oh it was no ploy, the big red monster Kane was coming down to the ring, and he was pissed off to say the least, entering the ring as Orton and Punk lasted a mere three seconds against him and would enact his rage upon them, taking them down with double chokeslams, hell, even grabbing the ref and would one arm him over the top to the floor. Kane would slide out of the ring, tossing the time keeper into the crowd and even grabbed a camera, smashing it against the steel post, grabbing a steel chair and entered the ring, bashing Orton right over the head, busting him wide open as he hit Punk over the back, breaking the chair in half. Kane wasn't done, whipping his head back and would do a double chokeslam to them, sending them right through the ring. Kane was....enraged to say the least as he rose his arms up, the posts literally exploding as the ring even started to catch a blaze of fire, Kane standing right in the middle of it as the whole arena was lit with an evil red glow as Nitro..came to a close.

Week 2
After the events of last week, everthing was back to normal in the NWA though CM Punk was going to be out of action, having a one on one interview with Jesse Ventura later in the night. The main event already booked for the evening as it was going to be a 20 man battle royale with the winner getting a shot at Punk's World Title at Halloween Havoc. Though there was even bigger news as the Women's Title was going to be defended, however, Vampriss came up with a wonderful idea, wanting to hold a tournament to see whom the top Angel was to face her at Havoc, however, she was going to prove she was at the top of the food chain either way, it more so, gave her a chance to watch her competition.
Matches
Round 1 In the Angel's Tournament
-Melina went one on one against Nattie in a hard bout of ten minutes, forced to tap out to the Sharpshooter, Nattie advancing to the Semi Finals.
-Victoria whom still was angry that she only had a one month title reign due to the cheating ways of Vampriss was looking for revenge indeed and she would have to take it out on newcomer, Mischif. Noted as perhaps the match of the evening and it was only the second match on the card, Victoria looked to seal the deal with the Widow's Peak but Mischif was able to slide out and surprise her with an inside craddle, advancing on.
-Lita, perhaps the fan favorite would get an opportunity to go for the title, hell, she was a former champion afterall and though she lost the third bout against Vampriss, the rivalry would never be over. Her challenger would be Luna Vachon whom brought in a solid wrestling game to Lita, leading most of the match until a quick Twist of Fate from Lita secured her the win advancing to the semi finals.
-The last match in the tournament for round one would see the last two left on the roster, Serena whom was 'lucky' to get another shot for the title but she had to go one on one against Beth Phoenix whom, within a matter of 110 seconds, destroyed Serena with a Glam Slam and advanced to the semi finals, Vampriss scowling from her perch at the top of the ramp, leaving ringside.
[Play out]
The fans were happy at first until they realised it was Priceless coming down to the ring dressed in BDSM gear, Cody having a ballgag in his mouth while DiBiase wore the typical wear that Demolition wore as they would enter the ring, hearing the rally of jeers.
"Good evening Nitro fans young and old, while we are on our pilgramage to be the greatest tag team of all time as tonight we take a look at one of your most beloved tag teams in history, Demolition. You see, you people don't know this, but thanks to our research team, we found out that Demolition was, more than meets the eyes you see. You people think they were just a team that dressed like this for show, but oh no, there was a lot more to it than just this, in fact, did you know that after the show, they would parade around in stuff like this, and even went around to get their jolly's off in the most sickest of ways."
Cody would take a mic after removing the gag.
"I heard that they had fun with the strangest of vices, like, with phallic devices and whips and something about animals too. Oh believe me it's worse than that but this is a family show so we can't get into the details. But Ted and I, we actually decoded what they say in their theme song...ahem..allow us."
The fans would jeer loudly as the music would play, Rhodes taking over.
"Here comes the ass...and here comes the smasher, BDSM gear, out to rape ya....better not drop soap...or you'll get poked. Rip and tear in ya, bareback and gag ya, there's no where to hide, the devils will rape you....alternative lifestyle....it's really called gay."
Priceless would stop hearing the jeers just get louder if that were even the case, Rhodes asking the crowd if that really was all that bad, laughing it up.
"Oh come on now don't be so ignorant about it, we all know what happens backstage once the lights go down...and probably one of the two....but just remember, don't hate us because we're the best, hate us because, unlike you all..we're-"
[Play Out]
The fans went nuts as Demolition slowly started to make their way down to the ring, entering with masks and all, it was really them as Priceless actually looked a bit worried though they barely had a chance as Ax and Smash would then start to beat upon them, not giving them a chance to fight back, actually stripping them down to the jocks if anything, Priceless forced to leave the ring bareassed and embarrassed as Axe grabbed the mic.
"You made enemies out of the wrong tag team boys, as our official debut here, we'll see you at Halloween Havoc."
Match One - Demolition vs. Priceless - NWA World Tag Team Titles.
After commercial, Priceless was in the back, arguing about what just occured to the general manager whom just told them, they messed with the wrong tag team this time and wished them good luck, walking off. On location at Jesse Ventura's place no less, he was going to conduct the interview with CM Punk, bringing back, the body shop. After flexing his muscles with some weights he would look into the mic with a grin.
"Welcome to the Body Shop I am your host the voice of truth, Jesse Ventura, tonight my guest is World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk. Now, let me be the first to say you are without a doubt a fighting champion and deserve all the accolades in the world, I only have a few questions for you and that is what do you think of what occured last week and what do you plan on doing as Champion from here on out?"
Punk would look at him, almost with a sneer, you could tell he was injured from last week due to Kane's attack, speaking low as his voice would pick up.
"Randy Orton is a cancer to this company whom only got where he was due to his name, he didn't have to work his way through the trenches to get where he was. So as far as he goes, I'll destroy him in a few months. As far as where I go Jess, first off, let me take you back in time to when this all started. I was a defending US Champion for nearly a year and had a huge bout with Cena at New Blood Rising then The Bash only to be screwed out. So I win the US Title and have classic bouts and go to Worlds Collide and knock out RVD..who gets the credit...John Cena and at Starrcade I destroy the ECW legend Tazz...who gets the credit of the night....Jeff Hardy. So we move on to an event called Super Card where I defeat Four men for NWA..who gets the match of the night...Evan Bourne. So lets skip forward where I lose my U.S. Title to Bourne and again, no matter what I do, I'm an undercard, an oversight, people forgot about CM Punk despite having the best wrestling match on the show, I was swept under the carpet, so I did the one thing that anyone would do, and that's win the World Title...and now...I'm the bad guy for beating Jeff Hardy. But that's just how it goes doesn't it? Guys like Jeff Hardy whom get whatever they want and I have to work for it and yet I'm the bad one. For the last month Kane has been coming around and trying to destroy me..and he and Cena mind you..get title shots...and I'm the bad guy. You know what Jesse...screw them. Screw all of them. You see it's guys like me that bust our asses night in and night out and get no respect while guys like Hardy and Cena and kane are the 'fan favorites' and can do whatever they want. I'm sick and tired of bullshit like that and I don't need their endorsement...or hell, I don't even need your endorsement to tell me that i'm good because lets face it Jess...I AM better than you because you could never amount to being a World Champion...so as far a I'm concerned this interview is over."
Punk would rise off, seeming to storm off as Jess came back into the camera to end the segment when he was bashed over the back of the head with the World Title. Punk would then toss him around the room, beating the hell out of it and slammed him down upon the equpitment. Punk would grab one of the weights, raising it up and slammed it down hard upon Ventura, screaming at him that he was better than him, pulling him up and tossed him through the sliding glass door, leaving Ventura a bloody mess as he walked off, taking the camera and tossed it into the street, the last shot being Punk's feet walking away.
Once Nitro came back on air, Todd Grisham was in a bit of shock, apologizing to the audience for what had been seen as Lord Alfred Hayes would be Jesse's back up and NWA would keep everyone posted on the condition of Jesse. It was time for the main event of the evening however as it was the 20 man Battle Royale, the winner, getting a shot at CM Punk's title at Halloween Havoc. The participants where Great Muta, Chono, Misawa, Benoit, Malenko, Vader, Cena, Morrision, Bam Bam, Justin Gabriel, The Patriot, Jake Roberts, Hakushi, Steve Richards, DDP, Paul Burchill, Jeff Jarrett, Goldberg, Andre and Eddie Guerrero.
Easily, Andre was the threat in the match as everyone would gang up upon him trying to get him out but he was just too strong, fighting everyone off one by one, getting rid of Burchill, DDP, Richards and Bam Bam just on his own. The tides started to shift just slightly when Cena and Vader would take him on but even their strength wasn't enough as Andre would fight them off, next eliminating Roberts from the equation. Andre was surely the dominate force in the ring indeed as he came eye to eye with Goldberg. They would stare off at each other, Goldberg ready to strike when Jarrett would attack him from behind, giving Andre a breather though Goldberg would eliminate Jarrett from the mix, going after Andre himself with Cena and Vader in tow, trying to get him out of the ring. They just about had him when the Anderson's entered and would take Goldberg out with tire irons, tossing him out of the ring and left him for dead a slight bloody mess, getting their revenge for their employeer as Vader was next to go over the rope. Andre was just too strong as Gabriel and The Patriot would try their luck against him, getting taken down for their efforts as Cena attempted to pick him up, getting squashed down for his troubles. Andre would rise up as he would lock eyes...with Great Muta. Oh Muta wasn't about to back down at all from him as he would duck his strikes, hitting when he could and nearly got the big man down when Chono and Misawa jumped him, wanting to take him out though Hakushi was tossed out of the ring during the attack along with Benoit and Malenko soon after.
Muta was mainly on his own with Cena, Gabriel and Patriot getting one manned by Andre, it was only a matter of time until they would have to join forces but it seemed that Dynasty was more involved with getting Muta out of the mix, Chono accidentally eliminating Misawa as Muta ducked a clothesline. Cena, Gabriel and Patriot would try their luck with Andre but it just wasn't going to happen as Andre would fight back against them, eventually knocking Gabriel and Patriot out of the mix while Morrison and Guerrero were eliminated due to Muta and Chono, down to the final four. Against everything, Chono and Muta were forced to work together to try and get Andre out of the game but again he was just too strong. Cena, being perhaps the only one would start to strike against him, trying to pick him up again but Andre was just too strong, headbutting Cena down.
[Play Out]
Holy crap did the fans go crazy as Kane was in the house and he was on the warpath, entering the ring and went right after Andre as both men would start to slug it out. Kane was the fresher of the two men, striking Andre and with the third clothesline took him down, the fans rallying behind as Kane watched him rise, grabbing his throat and started to push him towards the ropes but Andre would break out and dropped Kane down with a chokeslam, holding his head and pulled him back up, tossing him to the ropes and scored a backbody drop on the big red monster, clotheslining him out of the ring. Andre still was in control as Cena came up from behind and used all of his strength, getting the big man Andre out of the match as the crowd erupted, down to three.
Andre was angry but he had Kane to deal with as they would fight their way up to the stage ramp, though Andre got the last word, tossing Kane off of the ramp into the tech table, walking through the curtain. Cena, Muta and Chono were all alone, one of them was going after Punk as all three of them would battle it out, Cena having the most momentum in the match, double clotheslining Muta and Chono out of the ring but they held onto the apron. Cena ran full speed to take them down though Muta got him with the mist as Chono would suplex him out, now it was down to Muta and Chono as the old rivals would stare each other down. Both men would battle it out, trying to outwit the other as Muta was tossed over the ropes to the floor but only one foot touched as he hit the apron, grabbing Chono and would suplex him to the outside though lose his balance as he and Chono would hit the floor.
The bell sounded but there was no sound winner as Muta and Chono didn't care, starting to fight up the ramp anyway.
"Well this is a bit unexpected isn't it?"
"Oh ho my yess it is..we don't have a winner but Muta and Chono was going crazy anyway, we better get some security out here fast."
"Well on behalf of myself and NWA...we are out of time, we'll try and get this sorted out next week on Nitro, goodnight everyone."

Punk came out, deciding to open the show as he wanted, hearing the fans just scream at him as he stood in the middle of the ring. He didn't at all seem to be in the best of moods as he rose the mic up.
"What? You all pissed off that I beat up Ventura? Get over it. Until you people and the management in the back recongnize me as a Champion and start treating me as so, Ventura is only an example of what will continue to happen week in and week out here in the NWA. One of two things will occur, they'll strip me of the title and send me on my way or they'll learn to appreciate what they have before them. Now...they decided to have the final four have matches and the winner, next week, will get their chance against me at Halloween Havoc, oh wonderful for them. Cena had his chance so he should be written off, Andre was a pawn to get rid of Kane, so he's out, now it leaves two Japanesse talents that no one gives a damn about that I'll just crush. But I'll tell you what...I'm going to defend my world heavyweight title...right here....right now. Ah there we go finally some cheers out you people. I'll even do one better...I will face the first man to walk out through that curtain."
Punk would smirk, Steph looking at him as if he lost his mind, asking him what he was doing as he had an evil look in his eye, rolling his wrists and was prepared for a battle.
[Play Out]
The roof exploded as Punk's request was answered as Goldberg would answer his request, stepping through the curtain getting a huge ovation as he would make his way into the ring, Punk looking as if he saw his life flash before his eyes.
"Hold...Hold on here! Goldberg you already have a match against Arn Anderson tonight, I can't-"
SPEAR by Goldberg right in the center of the ring. He wasn't playing around as he rose up, snarling as he looked at the ref, just waiting for the bell to ring as Punk rose up, holding his ribs in agony as the bell sounded and the match was on, Punk hit with another spear as the fans went ballistic. Goldberg rose up, signaling for the end as he picked Punk up and dropped him down with the Jackhammer for one....two....NO Steph would hit the ref over the head with the World Title, having to save her champion. Goldberg rose up, grabbing Steph by the hair and pulled her away though was hit from behind by Arn and Ole Anderson whom would attack him with tire irons, Jarrett sliding in thereafter to join in as the ref called for the bell.
Immediately debris was being tossed into the ring as they were discusted at what was going on, Jarrett locking in the figure four while the Anderson's beat upon Goldberg with tire irons, trying to send a message to everyone as CM Punk slid out of the ring, not wanting any part of it. A few refs came down to stop this though they weren't enough as The Anderson's dropped him with a double spinebuster right in the center of the ring, their plan was to destroy him at all cost.
[Play out]
The cavalry arrived as LOD came flying down the ring armed with biker chains, tackling the Anderson's to the mat and started to punch away. Jarrett would try to pull them off though those extra few seconds gave Goldberg enough time to rise up and spear him down to the mat as the trio would leave the ring, not wanting any part of LOD or Goldberg though they were calling them on, ready for a fight as Nitro went to commercial.
Nitro came back as a match was added to the show as LOD would face The Anderson's later that night in a no holds barred match, that, already starting to pump the fans up as the first official match was underway.
Matches
Round 2
The Semi Finals were underway as it was Nattie going one on one with Mischif, the odds of course on Nattie whom was determined to get that title while Vampriss would again, watch from her perch with some 'attendants' feeding her grapes and rubbing at her feet. Nattie and Mischif would wrestle around, putting on a clinic of what these two can and would do, Dungeon vs. Old School as both women would grapple for close to twenty minutes as Nattie would almost get the sharpshooter locked in though Mischif countered with an inside craddle, nearly breaking her own legs in the process for the Victory, Advancing to the finals.
Vampriss would snap her fingers, ordering the males to carry her chair away from the stage, giving a glare towards Mischif as she left, one more match to go.
In the back, CM Punk was holding his ribs, getting into his locker room, nearly kicking the door open as his champions were all inside. He looked at them while being helped inside by Steph.
"The hell were you guys? I mean no need to save the champion right? The Andersons and Jarrett could have easily picked me apart once they got done with Goldberg, the hell happened to we're in this together?"
Kidman would speak, removing his shade as he looked like he was dressed to go clubbing.
"Look man relax, I just got here so I had no idea what was going on, why not ask your golden boys over there." He pointed to Priceless.
"Whoa whoa don't even point fingers at us Kidman, you know we had a meeting with the general manager so we couldn't pull away, why not ask Drew."
Punk would turn his head over to Drew whom would give him almost a sneer.
"How about it Drew...what's your excuse?"
Drew would fix the title over his shoulder, darting right into his eyes as he would answer him.
"Unlike these three....I don't have one. Besides, you said you could handle everything yerself did you not?"
Punk would roll his tongue within his cheek, making a fist and would slug Kidman right in the face, yelling at him.
"That's for not showing up on time. You're a crusierweight champion you start acting like one. As far as the rest of you, you're all on notice, it seems the only one being able to impress me lately and whom isn't getting embarrassed is Miss Lea. You guys better start acting like champions or I'll have you all replaced."
Punk left, slamming the door behind as Kidman rose up, trying to fix his glasses and clothes a bit, checking his nose for blood.
The next match would see Ultimo Dragon go one on one with Rey Mysterio, a cruiserweight classic indeed as the fans were into the match as they brought in Classic Lucha Libre vs. Japanesse Wrestling action, getting close to ten minutes until Kidman and Drew stormed the ring, taking them down for no apparant reason, the ref ringing for the bell as both of them would beat the hell out of them, it seemed Punk's influence was starting to wear into them, Drew hitting a Future Shock on Ultimo and Kidman a Shooting Star on Rey as they left the ring, smirking to each other.
Nitro came back from commercial however there was a huge brawl goign on in the back as LOD and Goldberg caught up with Jarrett and the Andersons and nothing was safe. Vending machines, tables, equpitment, dumpters, concessions, doors and windows were all broken within their path as police and what looked like the army were trying to seperate them but they were no match, being pushed aside as The Andersons got in their beat up truck, driving off with LOD hot on their tails, Jarrett getting the final word, bashing Goldberg's head with a guitar and fled the scene, oh this wasn't over by a long shot.
Round 2
Vampriss was brought out for round two of the Angel's Tournament, watching intently as it was Beth Phoenix going one on one with Lita, the fan favorite. These two women would battle it out in almost a war with Lita doing just about every trick she knew but Beth was just too dammed strong, able to get the win over Lita with a Glam Slam, licking her lips slowly as she stared down the aisle way, looking at Vampriss whom snapped her fingers, obviously...not amused.
The first of the double Main Event was underway with John Cena going one on one with Chono. Both men weren't about to take any lip from the other, having a stiff match, Cena being the stronger of the two though Chono had a stronger submission game. Cena appeared to have Chono reeling, bouncing off of the ropes, flooring him with shoulder tackles and signaled for the FU when Chono flipped out of it, bouncing off of the rope and blasted him with the Kenta Kick, Cena getting his shoulder up just in time, though it was too much as Chono would finish him off with a running Tiger Driver, covering Cena for Three, being one of the now three men that could be facing Punk at Halloween Havoc, sliding out of the ring leaving Cena, nearly broken in the ring.
After commercial...and Cena being helped to the back after that vicious attack it was reported that Jesse Ventura was still resting at home, his condition stable at the moment.
Finally it was time for the main event as Great Muta went one on one with Andre the Giant, whom lets face it...was No Giant Baba. Muta stuck to his japanesse roots, going after Andre from all angles, even if the big man constantly kept knocking him down and proving he was ring dominate, Bobby rubbing that in everyones faces each and every time. Andre had Muta up in the air, choking him until getting blinded right in the eye with the Red Mist, burning his eyes as Muta would attack him full on, dropping the big man to a knee, that was all he needed as he connected with the Shining Wizard for two as Bobby put Andre's foot on the rope. Muta rose up, grabbing Bobby and was about to rip his head off when Andre went after him, Muta moving out of the way as the ref and Bobby flew over the ropes to the floor. Muta went for a kick but Andre would just chop and headbutt him down, dropping him with a press slam.
[Play Out]
Well it had to happen as through hellfire and brimstone came Kane, sliding into the ring and went right after Andre, punching and slugging it out with him, bouncing off of the rope and hit three big clotheslines, the big Giant not going down. Kane went for another but Andre grabbed by the throat, pushing him back with ease and connected with a powerslam, nearly breaking the ring as he rose up. Kane slowly would sit up but was clotheslined to the floor below, that not stopping him from grabbing a steel chair, bashing it across Andre's back and once over the head, knocking him down in the corner. Kane slammed the chair down as he and Muta would bump into each other, both men turning around, staring at each other.
Muta would signal for him to get out of the ring, not wanting Kane to blow this title chance for him but the distraction gave Andre a chance to hit Kane over the head with the chair, knocking him out of the ring then blasted Muta clear over the head with it, the ref calling for the bell as Andre was disqualified from the match. Andre yelled at the ref, raising the chair to do further damage when Kane yanked it out of his hand, blasting him over the head with it and knocked him to the corner, starting to hit him with a flurry of punches, pulling him from the corner and grabbed his throat, squeezing tightly as Andre would grab Kane's, slowly pushing him down to his knees. Kane started to push himself back up, knocking Andre's hand off and picked him up....only for a second as it was too much, Andre picked up Kane and would chokeslam him down in the center of the ring, Bobby directing traffic as he would drag Kane's body over to the corner, Andre...slowly climbing up to the middle rope, the ring starting to shake as Andre would leap off with a Vaderbomb, crushing Kane right there in the ring, slowly rising up and watched the lifeless Kane just lay there.
It was over as Andre slowly left the ring with Bobby, smirking that they destroyed Kane, refs flying out to check on Kane whom was seriously, seriously hurting and unmoving as Nitro slowly faded to black.

Week Four
Nitro opened up with a rally of jeers as Punk would smirk, standing in the ring with his champions, all of which were grinning from ear to ear. Punk would roll the footage for the Television Audience as earlier that night, Priceless was seen attacking Chono and Drew and Kidman were seen attacking Great Muta, thus, ruining their match for later the evening. Punk would rub his chin, speaking.
"Awww...how sad for all of you....now you're not going to see who's gonna face me at Halloween Havoc. I know I know you were all looking forward to it but I guess, you'll just have to learn to deal with it huh. Maybe next time you'll learn to cheer a true champion for a change."
Punk would grin, the fans just screaming at him as he would slowly turn, looking to the stage and would shrug a little bit, almost as if waiting then spoke again.
"Hmm..no one coming out to stop me, I guess management gave up and finally starting to real-"
[Play Out]
DM slowly made his way to the ring, expressionless as Punk would just smirk at him, slowly 'cleaning' off his suit jacket.
"You look good boss, truely, bout time you got that hair cut. So...what did you come down here to tell me? You made me an opponent right for Halloween Havoc...Ooh let me guess...it's BOTH Muta and Chono right, that's a great way to screw me. Oh no..better yet, it's John Cena and Vader and the Andersons and Kane and all of the Rising Sun Dynasty vs me right? Is that your plan this month to screw me? Just tell me...oh please oh great one tell me whom my opponent is."
DM would just look at him, not saying one word as he heard the fans, curious as to whom he picked for CM Punk.
"First off.....Kidman...Drew...since you had to have your way with Mysterio and Ultimo last week, have fun facing them in tag team action with your titles on the line."
Match Two - Drew/Kidman vs. Rey/Ultimo for the US/Cruiserweight Titles
"Oh...and to make your lives worse...BOTH your titles are on the line..so if Drew or Kidman loses...you both lose."
Drew was ready to slug him as Punk held them back, though DM was just getting started.
"Chono....and Great Muta...are GOING to have their match whether you like it or not...but...the winner will be the number one contender for that...Title over your shoulder...and that'll happen at Halloween Havoc. Oh...and to make it sweeter....they can choose when..and where."
Match Three - Chono vs. Muta - #1 Contenders Match
"Three....Stephanie is banned from your match at Halloween Havoc."
Now he was cooking as Punk was starting to get aggitated, ready to speak back as DM would knock the mic out of his hand.
"As for your opponent at Halloween Havoc...I won't tell you until the end of the night...but I will give you a hint........don't forget.....to look up."
DM would point up to the rafters a bit almost as he would slowly leave the ring as Punk would almost swing at him, yelling at him to not book that match, the fans chanting out as they knew whom it was as the lights would start to flicker just gently, Punk, growling as he left ringside.
Matches
Round 3 - Finals
It was time for the finals as it was Mischif vs. Beth Phoenix for a shot at the Angel's Title with Vampriss, actally at ringside to call the match. Both girls were vicious to say the least, Beth tossing Mischiff around like a ragged doll, Mischif trying to keep the momentum going with submission locks that were easily broken. Mischif tossed to the floor got into the face of Vampriss whom just blew her a kiss, telling her to get back inside the ring as Phoenix was low bridged, giving evil eyes to Vampriss as she re entered into the match. Fifteen minutes had passed and they were getting exhausted, Beth ready to finish the job with the Glam Slam though Mischif was able to roll foward catching Beth in a victory roll and caught the win, advancing. Mischif was exhausted, raising her hand up as Lea would enter the ring, clapping her palms, having a mic.
"Oh..congradulations love....Oh I'm sure this is going to be a wet dream come true for at least two people in the world. What can I say but out of everyone you're the one I'm going to face at Halloween Havoc...well....goodluck."
She would extend her palm, Mischif leary at first and would shake her palm then quickly ducked a clothesline, dropping Vampriss with a Cutter Counter, picking up the mic as she would lean over.
"Ha......typical.....especially for you Lea.or whatever your name is. One thing you.....didn't know...is that....the winner of this tournament....get to name the match type....and if you're....atop the highest alter as an angel...I think it's time....we test that theory........in a.......ladder match."
Match Four - Vampriss vs. Mischif - NWA Women's Title - Ladder Match
What a shock indeed with a ladder match being added to the mix as Lea rolled out of the ring in a bit of shock, almost in fear a little bit. Punk on the other hand, was pacing in his locker room, racking his brain.
"Who is it? Who could it be that he picked for me? Something about the rafters.....wait....wait...it's Jeff Hardy, the only man sick enough to jump from them."
Steph would speak up.
"Well..maybe it's St-"
"No...do NOT say that name in front of me, it's not him, that's too obvious Steph."
Kidman would then speak up.
"Ya know, they are big on one guy....and...it could be Evan-"
"NO, it wouldn't be him either! Just because he's 'airborn' doesn't mean that's what the hint meant, be reasonable."
Drew would speak up.
"You know....three weeks ago they had ROH in here and the Revolution or whatever it's called...did just pick up another member...and you did face him at Worlds-"
"DON"T BE Riducolious Drew! Like RVD would really pull in ratings here. I'm telling ya, he's got something up his sleeve...and it's pissing me off."
The next match saw Ultimo Dragon go one on one with Great Sasuke. In a high calibur match of ten or so minutes it was Dragon getting the win, adding momentum to his match for Havoc.
Afterwards it was a returning Hurricane Helms going one on one with Rey Mysterio whom would put on a good ten minute match with him, but of course got the victory, only giving him more momentum towards the match at Havoc, smirking a bit if that could even be seen.
Once Nitro came back from Commercial break, Bobby Heenan was standing in the ring with Andre the Giant, smirking as he demanded a mic.
"Ladies and Gentleman, standing before you is no mere man but a mere monster of size, strength and girth. A man that single handedly, week after week was able to not only destroy his opponents but eliminated about 90 guys in the battle royal AND.....put Kane out of commision. Now WHO and HOW many people can say that? Oh you don't believe me? Watch the footage."
The tape would roll as it showed the climax of last weeks match where Andre had decimated Kane into mere rubble then squashed him with that Vaderbomb like manuever. What the home audience didn't see was that EMT's came flying down afterwards, placing Kane on a stretcher and had wheeled him out, Kane the whole time, not moving a muscle.
"You see it's quite simple, you battle the Giant and you get hurt and just to prove just how good and powerful he is, tonight, Andre is going to run the guantlet of wrestling three wrestlers at a time, so boys...come on down and prove your worth."
[Play out]
The first one was the rookie Justin Gabriel whom was full of fire, entering the ring as the bell would sound but dispite his efforts, in a mere four minutes, Andre destroyed him, getting the three. Andre rose up as Heenan would then chime out "Next"
[Play Out]
It was Paul Burchill as he came flying down on the rope, having his feet ready to kick him. Andre swung but missed as Burchill came around, hitting him in the back, grabbing him in a sleeper then did a sunset flip stunner, making the big man loopy and started to hit heavy haymakers on him, bouncing off of the ropes but took a hard boot from Andre getting beat right there in the middle of the ring with a pump handle slam as Heenan called out "Next."
[Play Out]
John F'ing Cena was next as he would sprint down to the ring, charging in at the big Giant and would start to slug at him. Cena was way too fast for him as it took a little while but he was able to knock the big man down, the crowd really getting behind him as Cena went to pick him up but fell flat. Andre would start to lay it into Cena whom refused to give up despite his size battling on for a solid ten minutes before Cena started to turn things around, battling Andre to his limit, a few shoulder tackles taking him down then a five knuckle shuffle as he rose up, using all his strength to pick him up for the FU and fell forward, only having Andre for about a second if that, the weight just way too much. Andre would then pick him up and delivered a massive chokeslam then a falling body press slam, finishing Cena's game for three.
Andre did run the guantlet, defeating three men right in a row, raising his arm up with a ring, laughing some as his yellow teeth would just spew his rage, pushing a camera man back with his massive palm.
[Play Out]
After a long interlude, finally from the fire, came Kane and he was dressed in all black and deep red. Andre was ready for him as Kane would enter the ring, going eye to eye with the big man. Andre would take his fist and would punch along Kane, knocking him to the ropes and dropped him with body slam....Kane sat up. Andre would tilt his head as he went after Kane again, choking him to the corner and tossed him from the middle rope....Kane sat up. Andre would charge at him, knocking him down with a big boot...Kane sat up. Andre got frustrated now as he charged in, squeezing the life out of Kane as Kane grabbed him by the throat, both men trying to work the other down as Andre, like always, pushed Kane down. Kane would fight back, rising to his feet but was slowly pushed back down to his knees. Kane had enough as he rose up, hitting Andre's hand off and would grab him by the throat, lifting him for a second but no, Andre was just too big, dropping him with a monster spine buster and dragged him to the corner, slowly climbing the middle rope once again and came down with a Vaderbomb over Kane's body not just once...but twice this time as Andre would smirk, standing in the center of the ring as he finished the job with a chokeslam upon Kane, looming over his body......until Kane sat up.
The posts would ignite on fire as Andre had enough and fled from the ring, Kane was up, the big red Monster wasn't dead as he stood in the ring, setting the ring ablaze as he would point to him and slowly cut along his throat, setting the tone that Kane was coming...and he was coming for him...at Havoc
Match Five - Kane vs. Andre
Back from commercial break, Punk was going to get to the bottom of this, walking down the aisle, talking to steph about something as he would slowly trip over, or at least lose his step over something. He would bend over, picking up a...black bat. He would grit his teeth, tossing it aside and would continue to walk
The final match of the evening would see Jeff Jarrett going one on one with Dean Malenko. The match would run close to ten or so minutes as Jarrett just couldn't get past Malenko, blasting him over the head with the guitar, setting an example for Goldberg that he was coming for him sooner or later, leaving ringside.
[Play Out]
"Alright, cut the crap, it's the end of the show and I've been pacing back and forth, I demand to know whom my opponent is at Halloween Havoc..did you hear me," he would grab a camera man and pulled him into the ring "I demand to know whom my opponent is. No more games, I want to know...now!"
DM didn't even bother with his music, slowly coming out with a grin.
"Have I annoyed you enough?"
"Yes you have, I want answers."
DM smirked.
"Alright...alright...let me drop you a few clues. This opponent looks good in black......and white. This opponent is a.....former...... champion. This opponent.....wrestled at Starrcade. Can't figure it out yet? This opponent....wrestled.....at Super Card. This opponent.....is...well...."
"Cut the crap boss, just tell me who the hell it is!"
Punk's eyes would start to get wide, gritting his teeth a bit as DM continued.
"Punk...you mean you haven't figured it out, hell, I gave you more than enough clues, let me give you the last one.....did you remember to look up?"
Punk would slam the mic down, he was tired of the games as he would look up, not seeing a dammed thing, moving the cameraman a little bit over to the turnbuckle, pointing the camera up, saying he didn't see a dammed thing.
"I don't see a dammed thing, there is nothing up there. Will you just tell me whom it is already before I walk?"
"Alright alright.....but just one last time...look up."
Punk would look up, again not seeing a thing as the camera man came off from the top rope, bashing the camera over his head, knocking him out. The fans were a bit confused as Steph bolted from the ring, Punk was in a bit of a daze as slowly, very slowly the camera man would remove the disguise to reveal himself.....as Ricky Steamboat! Punk would rise up and charged in as Rick just tossed him out of the ring with ease, getting a loud crowd ovation as he picked up the mic, staring down at a loopy Punk.
"Did you miss me? At Halloween Havoc...you and I are finally going to lock up....and this time...it will happen for sure.....in a 60....minute Iron...Man...Match!"
Punk sat up, holding his head in pain, almost crying as now he was screwed indeed as Ricky hit the top rope, pointing at him and signaled that his reign was going to be over as Punk couldn't believe that the match he messed up, was now going to happen and there was no way out of it as Nitro...faded to black.
"Ladies and Gentleman, Last night, NWA Fall Brawl was surely an epic Pay Per View indeed that's why I stand before you all tonight. There have been some rumors floating around the internet lately and I came out here to address them. Quite frankly, I have also invited a special guest to Nitro tonight, so please, everyone rise up and welcome, The President of Ring Of Honor Wrestling...James Buchanan!"
[Play Out]
James comes out in casual clothing getting a mixed reaction from the crowd as James gets into the ring and shake hands with DM before being given the microphone
“DM it’s great to be back in NWA again and what a reason to be back, Now as you know I have been heavily involved in emails and phone calls and you would have heard me talking about December 19th, well I can reveal what the surprise is. Remember what happened last year, well it returns as I am proud to announce that ROH and NWA will join together again for one night only to host Worlds Collide 2, December 19th at the O2 Arena in London England. What is Worlds Collide, simple, its not an invasion, its not one company burying another, its two companies joining together for on evening and providing the best wrestling for your fans, think of it as an extra Christmas present for all wrestling fans out here”
DM is seen nodding his head in approval as the fans are heard chanting for both companies as James hands the microphone back to DM.
"Now...everyone here has to know that James here is one crazy bastard, and I myself, well, nuff said, but anyway, Round 2 will be underway and last year, the main Event was John Cena against Nigel McGuinness, to which..he won of course. HOWEVER! We thought up a HUGE main event and it's going to involve two of the biggest stars in NWA and ROH-"
{Play Punk Out}
"Oh...Hell.....no. First off...why in the hell are you bringing this trash to the NWA? This trash that stands here and actually THINKS he's the reason for ROH reserging into the fame that it is now. Mr. Indy Wrestling, Mr. small venue, Mr. The Tag Team Championships are worth more than the World Champion himself! BULLSHIT! What kind of moron books two people over the WORLD Champion? Seriously? I mean, hold up just one moment, you're going to sit there and tell and preach to my about ROH and you don't even have it's crowning jewel in CM Punk? Do you remember the dammed Draft when this whole thing started? You, Mr. ROH who praises it above sex and God, and you didn't even THINK about picking me up? No...No in fact, you picked up RVD......Jerry Lynn.....Beer Money....and Necro Butcher, Necro FUCKING BUTCHER and he doesn't even wrestle in the fucking promotion anymore and then I was picked up by NWA and you have the BALLS to sit there and praise your precious ROH. Face it, when you didn't pick me up, you dropped the ball and that's why I, CM Punk, is leading NWA into the mainland and why you are stuck and that stupid internet wiretap called Youtube and cant' get a decent television deal. What, in the hell, do you have to say that Mr. ROH, remind you, the last time I saw RVD...I beat his ass in the center of your ring!"
“Are you done Punk, now if I remember when you left ROH you went to a mainstream company and everyone was saying that you sold out. I never said that, I always thought you could work well in a bigger promotion and look what happened you became a world champion and a tag team champion, then you move to NWA and you have had one of the best runs in recent memory, one of the longest reigning US champions in history and current World Heavyweight Champion, which reminds me, at the first Worlds Collide when Cena was champion….Cena LOST! To an Indy promotion, now oh saviour of all boredom what do you have to say to all your so called fans out there, oh by the way you can bitch and moan about how we do things different, that makes us unique!”
"Unique? Unique!? ROH is deffinately unqiue alright, the only problem is, you cling to the glory days that once was and you're nothing more than a simple Indy Promotion that is a the breeding ground for the likes of NWA, the superior brand in all professional wrestling. You two jackoff's can go blow each other for all I care, the simple reason is, I WON"T be at World's Collide this year because I have more important things to do with my life than return to that would be internet smark show you call wrestling."
[Play Out Orton]
Orton comes out the curtain and slowly walks down the aisle way carrying his World Heavyweight Championship as he gets to the ringside area but instead of getting into the ring he slowly walks around the ring taking his time and surveying his surroundings before getting into the ring. We see James in the ring applauding his world champion, even though Orton has caused him so many problems he is the ROH World Champion so he does have respect from James himself. Orton slowly walks around the ring as his music dies down and he grabs the microphone
“My…My…My, what do we have here, some messiah of wrestling convincing us that it’s wrong to take drugs and do drink, No I really like the message you give, Shame that these fans don’t give a flying FUCK as to what you say. James might not say it but I will, you SOLD OUT! I here time and again that CM Punk was the face of this promotion but when the facts come out you done very little to this promotion, it was guys like Christopher Daniels, Low-Ki, Brian Kendrick who built this company and yet since I have been in ROH, I have beaten every found father there is except one but he is on a different brand. You say you’re the best in the business, as far as I can tell you’ve only been World Champion for what 2-3 months, beating Jeff Hardy who in all honesty isn’t that hard to beat, I know that one, if you want to talk about dominant champions look no further then Randy Orton two time ROH World Heavyweight Champion, the longest reigning champion since ROH came back last year, I’ve held this belt for half a year, double as long as you have, so Cookie Monster Punk, the next time you open your big mouth you might want to think about what you say because it maybe the last words to ever come out of your mouth, that’s some advice from one world champion to another”
"Oh don't even toss your banner of ROH freedom at me Randy. You aren't even worth the paper your name is printed on. First off, I'm one of the longest reigning United States Champions in history, and second, you were beaten by a man whom didn't have the courage to even SHOW UP to his match and instead, I wrestled a war with John Cena..a man you could never scratch in potential..and I destroyed. You think you're a hot potatoe don't you Randy...do you remember...when you were moved to WWF, and you...and Triple H were all together, and then one day, during the trade....you were sent to ROH, and eventually, Triple H found his way there as well, and you know what the best part is Randy, while WWF got rid of you...they kept..Super Dragon, a man that only wrestled ONCE and they saw more potential in him than they did in you, and lets face it, it's not as if..you've pulled in the ratings since moving to ROH...Oooh yeah that's right, your last Pay Per View is still buffering. Yeah, go ahead and tell me that I sold out, but I tell you right now Randy...if I made myself a free agent, don't think, your boss, would jump at the chance to pick me up."
“That’s very sweet of you Punk, bringing up the past like that, reminds me of a certain someone but you need to know something, the past is done, its history, I live for the present and the future, you and me are the future of this business. When other people go and retire we will be the ones placing the butts in seats. But seeing as you don’t know that yet because your nothing more than an arrogant and cocky little kid who has been given too much power in a promotion that craves on power. Lets switch the tables, should I make myself a free agent, BOTH your bosses would be gagging over the chance of getting me signed to your company, that way I could beat your ass every day of the week and it would never get old. Yeah I got beat by Steamboat but who walked out of Worlds Collide at the end of that match…Me, wasn’t it you that beat Steamboat down before you match, now I am not expert but doesn’t that mean you were scared of Steamboat, losing your title after one month as a paper champion. Punk listen and listen good we could spend the next hour and forty five minutes reliving the past and boring ourselves to death with having to listen to you talk or we can do what we normally do in ROH which you know of and that is cut the crap and get to the action, so Punk why don’t you fight me now and then we shall see who really is the better wrestler or will I need to kick some sense into you by kicking you in the skull!”
Punk would take a step back and tossed his shirt aside, Steph warning him not to do anything stupid though the fans were starting to rally a little bit as Punk and Orton were ready to go as Punk spoke out.
"Not on your life. I'm not going to satisfy the wet dreams of these fans by kicking the crap out of you. Go find yourself another patsy, cause I'm sick and tired of fighting ex WWF Rejects."
Punk started to turn as DM spoke out.
"Actually Punk...you are going to be fighting Orton..and..it will be tonight..in the main event-"
"Maybe I didn't make myself clear boss. I said I'm not going to wrestle this trash tonight...tomorrow or any other night-"
"No you listen to me! Tonight, you ARE going to face Randy Orton and his tag team partner Triple H and a tag partner of your choosing in the Main event. If you win...you get to name Orton's opponent....if he wins...he gets to name yours. And if you back out of this match...you're fired."
Punk would drop the mic, ready to just slug at DM with all his rage, slowly turning around right into an RKO, Orton actually getting a bit of an ovation though that wasn't the worst of it, James speaking out, perhaps to announce...the first match of World's Collide.
“Punk you really put your foot in your mouth this time, because I don’t know if you can hear me but tonight is just a taste of what you will be in store for, I am now officially announcing the first match for Worlds Collide 2 in December, you see it will be an epic clash of champions, we will find out who really is the best champion of the two brands because at Worlds Collide in the main event it will be the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion CM Punk Vs the ROH Worlds Heavyweight Champion Randy Orton, so looks as if the Legend Killer will exterminate another legend come December”
James drops the microphone and raises the hand of Randy Orton whom out of nowhere takes James down with and RKO as DM is standing there shocked as Orton slowly gets onto his knees and takes the microphone getting into the face of James
“James what you don’t realise is that I am not doing it for ROH, no…no…no, I am doing it for The Revolution, more importantly I am doing it for myself come worlds collide someone will be taken out for good and Punk maybe the target”
Orton slowly rises to his feet and rises the ROH World Heavyweight Championship high as he smirks to the camera before leaving the ring as Punk and James are seen laid out in the middle of the ring and DM is standing in the ring bewildered at what Orton had said.
Matches
In liew of everything still there had to be matches on the show as ROH would team up with NWA to have co branded matches to help hype up World's Collide. The first match saw Low Ki squaring off again Rey Mysterio whom was still pretty banged up from his match with Misawa. In a good cruiserweight edition of Nitro, Mysterio was able to just catch the win.
The next match saw Shaemus with his newly acquired Full Impact Pro Title and went one on one with the Man They Call Vader. In what could be considered a 'stiff' bout indeed, the match would end in a draw, more so a double dq as both men would continue to slug it out with each other, the refs forcing it to break off.
The third match was a mixed tag that saw Vampriss and Drew teaming up against Beth Phoenix and Nigel McGuinness, prior to the match, DM warned Drew and Lea to behave themselves, though that only lasted about five minutes into the match as Nigel and Drew started to trade stiff blow, the women getting involved soon after. During a bit of confusion, Nigel was able to roll up Drew and caught a win though Lea ruined it by blinding him with the red mist, Drew tackling him to the ground as they fought to the back. Vampriss would smirk to herself, turning around and was dropped with the Glam Slam right in the center of the ring. Beth would take a mic and leaned down, speaking.
"There's a reason why your boss told you to behave yourself little girl. As of right now...I now work..for the NWA. Sweet dreams Princess."
Beth dropped the mic down and rose her palms up, leaving the ring as Vampriss was literally out cold from the attack.
The next match saw Priceless, doing their usual Priceless skit, saying that it didn't matter that a 'certain team' ran the guantlet or that you alligned yourself with a 'dark force' to retain titles, what mattered was that you were the best in the world and when it came to the best, they were on, they're 14th Month enclimbing. They were answered however by The World's Greatest Tag Team from ROH having a good standing ten minute bout, but thanks to some 'Dasterdly' tricks from Rhodes, Priceless was able to score a roll up victory, perhaps setting a tone that they were not to be triffled with...at least..for now.
CM Punk was in the back, holding his head in pain from the attack of Orton, trying to figure out whom he would bring as a tag partner when he was stopped by Andre and Bobby Heenan.
"What is it you two want?"
"Well you see here Mr. Punk, since we scratched your back last night, it's not time for you to scratch ours, namely, Andre's."
"Wait a minute what are you talking about Heenan? I thought Steph paid you the funds to take out Kane."
"Oh and we did, but, the payment just went up a little bit."
Punk would hand his title over to Steph whom was nursing a hurt neck as it was, Punk ran his fingers through his hair.
"Look, I'm kind of in the middle of something here tonight so can we deal with this later?"
"No Punk we don't have time for later, I'll cut to the chase, Andre here wants a title shot and I think he's earned it taking out the most dominate force in the NWA."
"A title shot? For what? Doing one thing? I'm sorry but that's not how it works around-"
Andre would then grab Punk by the throat and rose him up, pressing him against the wall. Punk would struggle some but Andre was way too powerful, speaking at him.
"Punk...I giv yu twu choice....broken neck....or broken back."
Andre wasn't fooling around as Punk would choke, unable to breathe as Andre let him down, slowly walking off, more so letting Punk know, he was on the hunt for the World Title.
The next match on the card saw Jeff Jarrett making a return to the ring, getting a loud array of jeers since he hadn't been seen since the Bash, spitting at some of the fans as his opponent was indeed an old NWA Favorite, Jerry Lynn. The match would last close to twenty minutes, both sides going back and forth with Lynn being able to pick up the win from out of no where, finding the strength to break out of the figure four and counter Jarrett into a german suplex, though his celebration was cut short when the Anderson's came down to ringside and started beat the hell out of Jerry Lynn. The crowd was a bit confused until they hit him with a double Spine Buster, holding him up as Jarrett bashed him over the head with the guitar as it all became clear, Jarrett was aligned, with the Anderson's as he took a mic.
"Shut up y'all. For months we've been planning this out and it seems the wheels are in motion already with this ROH trash in our NWA ring. We took out Flare, we took out LOD and now we took out the NWA sell out Jerry Lynn. Myself and the Anderson's are leading a charge into ROH and we're going to take that dammed company down and burn it to the ground just like I burned TNA to the ground. ROH is the cancer of this industry and I plan on quashing it into the ground. Don't piss us off."
Jarrett would drop the mic down as he left with the Anderson's behind him, and needless to say, with Arn and Ole as back up, whom was going to stand up to him?
Finally it was time for the main event as it was Team Orton against Team Punk whom would use Drew McIntyre as his tag partner, his second in command more or less. The buzz was huge as Orton and Punk stood in the middle of the ring, perhaps a chance already to see their match at World's Collide as they would strike to each other, both Punk and Orton exhausted from their matches, tagging out early as Drew and Triple H would run most of the match. Drew, actually finding a way to outwit Triple H, even if for a moment, starting to dish out the offense, tagging Punk in as they would double team him. Orton would try to help though Priceless pulled him from the apron, doing some quick damage and would flee before the ref caught it, Punk having it in the bag as he hit the GTS right on Triple H, the ref about to count when Shaemus came from the crowd, pulling Drew from the apron causing a distraction.
Drew was pulled from the equation as Punk was yelling out, telling the ref to do something but it gave Triple H a chance to capitalize, hitting Punk with the Pedigree as the ref went to cover, but Billy Kidman would hit a shooting star right on the ref, taking him out. Triple H went after him but Kidman came armed, blasting him with the Crusierweight Title and tackled him to the floor. Orton would slide into the ring, shaking his head and would prepare for the RKO, waiting for it as Punk rose up. Orton would strike but Punk would block and started to fight back against Orton.
Punk had him in his sights, needing to burn some time as the ref started to move a bit, Orton raking the eyes of Punk as the ref would check on him, Steph entering the ring and went to blast Orton with the World Title, getting an RKO for her troubles. Orton kicked her out of the ring as Punk would spring from the corner, catching Orton in the Anaconda Vice and locked in tightly as Orton was about to tap.
[Play Out]
Punk immediately broke the hold when he heard the pyro erupt, ready to run for his life but it was just a ploy, turning around and nearly fell for the RKO, blocking it and pushed him towards the ref, Orton put on the breaks and blocked out of the GTS, both men just starting to slug it out melee style as the ref told them to break it up, signalling for the bell, ruling it a double DQ. The fans would boo as Punk and Orton were just battling it out, trying to get over on the other.
[Play Out]
Oh it was no ploy, the big red monster Kane was coming down to the ring, and he was pissed off to say the least, entering the ring as Orton and Punk lasted a mere three seconds against him and would enact his rage upon them, taking them down with double chokeslams, hell, even grabbing the ref and would one arm him over the top to the floor. Kane would slide out of the ring, tossing the time keeper into the crowd and even grabbed a camera, smashing it against the steel post, grabbing a steel chair and entered the ring, bashing Orton right over the head, busting him wide open as he hit Punk over the back, breaking the chair in half. Kane wasn't done, whipping his head back and would do a double chokeslam to them, sending them right through the ring. Kane was....enraged to say the least as he rose his arms up, the posts literally exploding as the ring even started to catch a blaze of fire, Kane standing right in the middle of it as the whole arena was lit with an evil red glow as Nitro..came to a close.

Week 2
After the events of last week, everthing was back to normal in the NWA though CM Punk was going to be out of action, having a one on one interview with Jesse Ventura later in the night. The main event already booked for the evening as it was going to be a 20 man battle royale with the winner getting a shot at Punk's World Title at Halloween Havoc. Though there was even bigger news as the Women's Title was going to be defended, however, Vampriss came up with a wonderful idea, wanting to hold a tournament to see whom the top Angel was to face her at Havoc, however, she was going to prove she was at the top of the food chain either way, it more so, gave her a chance to watch her competition.
Matches
Round 1 In the Angel's Tournament
-Melina went one on one against Nattie in a hard bout of ten minutes, forced to tap out to the Sharpshooter, Nattie advancing to the Semi Finals.
-Victoria whom still was angry that she only had a one month title reign due to the cheating ways of Vampriss was looking for revenge indeed and she would have to take it out on newcomer, Mischif. Noted as perhaps the match of the evening and it was only the second match on the card, Victoria looked to seal the deal with the Widow's Peak but Mischif was able to slide out and surprise her with an inside craddle, advancing on.
-Lita, perhaps the fan favorite would get an opportunity to go for the title, hell, she was a former champion afterall and though she lost the third bout against Vampriss, the rivalry would never be over. Her challenger would be Luna Vachon whom brought in a solid wrestling game to Lita, leading most of the match until a quick Twist of Fate from Lita secured her the win advancing to the semi finals.
-The last match in the tournament for round one would see the last two left on the roster, Serena whom was 'lucky' to get another shot for the title but she had to go one on one against Beth Phoenix whom, within a matter of 110 seconds, destroyed Serena with a Glam Slam and advanced to the semi finals, Vampriss scowling from her perch at the top of the ramp, leaving ringside.
[Play out]
The fans were happy at first until they realised it was Priceless coming down to the ring dressed in BDSM gear, Cody having a ballgag in his mouth while DiBiase wore the typical wear that Demolition wore as they would enter the ring, hearing the rally of jeers.
"Good evening Nitro fans young and old, while we are on our pilgramage to be the greatest tag team of all time as tonight we take a look at one of your most beloved tag teams in history, Demolition. You see, you people don't know this, but thanks to our research team, we found out that Demolition was, more than meets the eyes you see. You people think they were just a team that dressed like this for show, but oh no, there was a lot more to it than just this, in fact, did you know that after the show, they would parade around in stuff like this, and even went around to get their jolly's off in the most sickest of ways."
Cody would take a mic after removing the gag.
"I heard that they had fun with the strangest of vices, like, with phallic devices and whips and something about animals too. Oh believe me it's worse than that but this is a family show so we can't get into the details. But Ted and I, we actually decoded what they say in their theme song...ahem..allow us."
The fans would jeer loudly as the music would play, Rhodes taking over.
"Here comes the ass...and here comes the smasher, BDSM gear, out to rape ya....better not drop soap...or you'll get poked. Rip and tear in ya, bareback and gag ya, there's no where to hide, the devils will rape you....alternative lifestyle....it's really called gay."
Priceless would stop hearing the jeers just get louder if that were even the case, Rhodes asking the crowd if that really was all that bad, laughing it up.
"Oh come on now don't be so ignorant about it, we all know what happens backstage once the lights go down...and probably one of the two....but just remember, don't hate us because we're the best, hate us because, unlike you all..we're-"
[Play Out]
The fans went nuts as Demolition slowly started to make their way down to the ring, entering with masks and all, it was really them as Priceless actually looked a bit worried though they barely had a chance as Ax and Smash would then start to beat upon them, not giving them a chance to fight back, actually stripping them down to the jocks if anything, Priceless forced to leave the ring bareassed and embarrassed as Axe grabbed the mic.
"You made enemies out of the wrong tag team boys, as our official debut here, we'll see you at Halloween Havoc."
Match One - Demolition vs. Priceless - NWA World Tag Team Titles.
After commercial, Priceless was in the back, arguing about what just occured to the general manager whom just told them, they messed with the wrong tag team this time and wished them good luck, walking off. On location at Jesse Ventura's place no less, he was going to conduct the interview with CM Punk, bringing back, the body shop. After flexing his muscles with some weights he would look into the mic with a grin.
"Welcome to the Body Shop I am your host the voice of truth, Jesse Ventura, tonight my guest is World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk. Now, let me be the first to say you are without a doubt a fighting champion and deserve all the accolades in the world, I only have a few questions for you and that is what do you think of what occured last week and what do you plan on doing as Champion from here on out?"
Punk would look at him, almost with a sneer, you could tell he was injured from last week due to Kane's attack, speaking low as his voice would pick up.
"Randy Orton is a cancer to this company whom only got where he was due to his name, he didn't have to work his way through the trenches to get where he was. So as far as he goes, I'll destroy him in a few months. As far as where I go Jess, first off, let me take you back in time to when this all started. I was a defending US Champion for nearly a year and had a huge bout with Cena at New Blood Rising then The Bash only to be screwed out. So I win the US Title and have classic bouts and go to Worlds Collide and knock out RVD..who gets the credit...John Cena and at Starrcade I destroy the ECW legend Tazz...who gets the credit of the night....Jeff Hardy. So we move on to an event called Super Card where I defeat Four men for NWA..who gets the match of the night...Evan Bourne. So lets skip forward where I lose my U.S. Title to Bourne and again, no matter what I do, I'm an undercard, an oversight, people forgot about CM Punk despite having the best wrestling match on the show, I was swept under the carpet, so I did the one thing that anyone would do, and that's win the World Title...and now...I'm the bad guy for beating Jeff Hardy. But that's just how it goes doesn't it? Guys like Jeff Hardy whom get whatever they want and I have to work for it and yet I'm the bad one. For the last month Kane has been coming around and trying to destroy me..and he and Cena mind you..get title shots...and I'm the bad guy. You know what Jesse...screw them. Screw all of them. You see it's guys like me that bust our asses night in and night out and get no respect while guys like Hardy and Cena and kane are the 'fan favorites' and can do whatever they want. I'm sick and tired of bullshit like that and I don't need their endorsement...or hell, I don't even need your endorsement to tell me that i'm good because lets face it Jess...I AM better than you because you could never amount to being a World Champion...so as far a I'm concerned this interview is over."
Punk would rise off, seeming to storm off as Jess came back into the camera to end the segment when he was bashed over the back of the head with the World Title. Punk would then toss him around the room, beating the hell out of it and slammed him down upon the equpitment. Punk would grab one of the weights, raising it up and slammed it down hard upon Ventura, screaming at him that he was better than him, pulling him up and tossed him through the sliding glass door, leaving Ventura a bloody mess as he walked off, taking the camera and tossed it into the street, the last shot being Punk's feet walking away.
Once Nitro came back on air, Todd Grisham was in a bit of shock, apologizing to the audience for what had been seen as Lord Alfred Hayes would be Jesse's back up and NWA would keep everyone posted on the condition of Jesse. It was time for the main event of the evening however as it was the 20 man Battle Royale, the winner, getting a shot at CM Punk's title at Halloween Havoc. The participants where Great Muta, Chono, Misawa, Benoit, Malenko, Vader, Cena, Morrision, Bam Bam, Justin Gabriel, The Patriot, Jake Roberts, Hakushi, Steve Richards, DDP, Paul Burchill, Jeff Jarrett, Goldberg, Andre and Eddie Guerrero.
Easily, Andre was the threat in the match as everyone would gang up upon him trying to get him out but he was just too strong, fighting everyone off one by one, getting rid of Burchill, DDP, Richards and Bam Bam just on his own. The tides started to shift just slightly when Cena and Vader would take him on but even their strength wasn't enough as Andre would fight them off, next eliminating Roberts from the equation. Andre was surely the dominate force in the ring indeed as he came eye to eye with Goldberg. They would stare off at each other, Goldberg ready to strike when Jarrett would attack him from behind, giving Andre a breather though Goldberg would eliminate Jarrett from the mix, going after Andre himself with Cena and Vader in tow, trying to get him out of the ring. They just about had him when the Anderson's entered and would take Goldberg out with tire irons, tossing him out of the ring and left him for dead a slight bloody mess, getting their revenge for their employeer as Vader was next to go over the rope. Andre was just too strong as Gabriel and The Patriot would try their luck against him, getting taken down for their efforts as Cena attempted to pick him up, getting squashed down for his troubles. Andre would rise up as he would lock eyes...with Great Muta. Oh Muta wasn't about to back down at all from him as he would duck his strikes, hitting when he could and nearly got the big man down when Chono and Misawa jumped him, wanting to take him out though Hakushi was tossed out of the ring during the attack along with Benoit and Malenko soon after.
Muta was mainly on his own with Cena, Gabriel and Patriot getting one manned by Andre, it was only a matter of time until they would have to join forces but it seemed that Dynasty was more involved with getting Muta out of the mix, Chono accidentally eliminating Misawa as Muta ducked a clothesline. Cena, Gabriel and Patriot would try their luck with Andre but it just wasn't going to happen as Andre would fight back against them, eventually knocking Gabriel and Patriot out of the mix while Morrison and Guerrero were eliminated due to Muta and Chono, down to the final four. Against everything, Chono and Muta were forced to work together to try and get Andre out of the game but again he was just too strong. Cena, being perhaps the only one would start to strike against him, trying to pick him up again but Andre was just too strong, headbutting Cena down.
[Play Out]
Holy crap did the fans go crazy as Kane was in the house and he was on the warpath, entering the ring and went right after Andre as both men would start to slug it out. Kane was the fresher of the two men, striking Andre and with the third clothesline took him down, the fans rallying behind as Kane watched him rise, grabbing his throat and started to push him towards the ropes but Andre would break out and dropped Kane down with a chokeslam, holding his head and pulled him back up, tossing him to the ropes and scored a backbody drop on the big red monster, clotheslining him out of the ring. Andre still was in control as Cena came up from behind and used all of his strength, getting the big man Andre out of the match as the crowd erupted, down to three.
Andre was angry but he had Kane to deal with as they would fight their way up to the stage ramp, though Andre got the last word, tossing Kane off of the ramp into the tech table, walking through the curtain. Cena, Muta and Chono were all alone, one of them was going after Punk as all three of them would battle it out, Cena having the most momentum in the match, double clotheslining Muta and Chono out of the ring but they held onto the apron. Cena ran full speed to take them down though Muta got him with the mist as Chono would suplex him out, now it was down to Muta and Chono as the old rivals would stare each other down. Both men would battle it out, trying to outwit the other as Muta was tossed over the ropes to the floor but only one foot touched as he hit the apron, grabbing Chono and would suplex him to the outside though lose his balance as he and Chono would hit the floor.
The bell sounded but there was no sound winner as Muta and Chono didn't care, starting to fight up the ramp anyway.
"Well this is a bit unexpected isn't it?"
"Oh ho my yess it is..we don't have a winner but Muta and Chono was going crazy anyway, we better get some security out here fast."
"Well on behalf of myself and NWA...we are out of time, we'll try and get this sorted out next week on Nitro, goodnight everyone."

Week Three
Nitro opened with a bang as the Angel's Tournament Semi Finals would be in action and the main event, a double in fact as the general managers would allow the final four in the battle royale to battle in singles matches with Chono going up against Cena and Andre against Muta, the winners, advance to the final week where the winner would face CM Punk for the World Title.
[Play Out]
Punk came out, deciding to open the show as he wanted, hearing the fans just scream at him as he stood in the middle of the ring. He didn't at all seem to be in the best of moods as he rose the mic up.
"What? You all pissed off that I beat up Ventura? Get over it. Until you people and the management in the back recongnize me as a Champion and start treating me as so, Ventura is only an example of what will continue to happen week in and week out here in the NWA. One of two things will occur, they'll strip me of the title and send me on my way or they'll learn to appreciate what they have before them. Now...they decided to have the final four have matches and the winner, next week, will get their chance against me at Halloween Havoc, oh wonderful for them. Cena had his chance so he should be written off, Andre was a pawn to get rid of Kane, so he's out, now it leaves two Japanesse talents that no one gives a damn about that I'll just crush. But I'll tell you what...I'm going to defend my world heavyweight title...right here....right now. Ah there we go finally some cheers out you people. I'll even do one better...I will face the first man to walk out through that curtain."
Punk would smirk, Steph looking at him as if he lost his mind, asking him what he was doing as he had an evil look in his eye, rolling his wrists and was prepared for a battle.
[Play Out]
The roof exploded as Punk's request was answered as Goldberg would answer his request, stepping through the curtain getting a huge ovation as he would make his way into the ring, Punk looking as if he saw his life flash before his eyes.
"Hold...Hold on here! Goldberg you already have a match against Arn Anderson tonight, I can't-"
SPEAR by Goldberg right in the center of the ring. He wasn't playing around as he rose up, snarling as he looked at the ref, just waiting for the bell to ring as Punk rose up, holding his ribs in agony as the bell sounded and the match was on, Punk hit with another spear as the fans went ballistic. Goldberg rose up, signaling for the end as he picked Punk up and dropped him down with the Jackhammer for one....two....NO Steph would hit the ref over the head with the World Title, having to save her champion. Goldberg rose up, grabbing Steph by the hair and pulled her away though was hit from behind by Arn and Ole Anderson whom would attack him with tire irons, Jarrett sliding in thereafter to join in as the ref called for the bell.
Immediately debris was being tossed into the ring as they were discusted at what was going on, Jarrett locking in the figure four while the Anderson's beat upon Goldberg with tire irons, trying to send a message to everyone as CM Punk slid out of the ring, not wanting any part of it. A few refs came down to stop this though they weren't enough as The Anderson's dropped him with a double spinebuster right in the center of the ring, their plan was to destroy him at all cost.
[Play out]
The cavalry arrived as LOD came flying down the ring armed with biker chains, tackling the Anderson's to the mat and started to punch away. Jarrett would try to pull them off though those extra few seconds gave Goldberg enough time to rise up and spear him down to the mat as the trio would leave the ring, not wanting any part of LOD or Goldberg though they were calling them on, ready for a fight as Nitro went to commercial.
Nitro came back as a match was added to the show as LOD would face The Anderson's later that night in a no holds barred match, that, already starting to pump the fans up as the first official match was underway.
Matches
Round 2
The Semi Finals were underway as it was Nattie going one on one with Mischif, the odds of course on Nattie whom was determined to get that title while Vampriss would again, watch from her perch with some 'attendants' feeding her grapes and rubbing at her feet. Nattie and Mischif would wrestle around, putting on a clinic of what these two can and would do, Dungeon vs. Old School as both women would grapple for close to twenty minutes as Nattie would almost get the sharpshooter locked in though Mischif countered with an inside craddle, nearly breaking her own legs in the process for the Victory, Advancing to the finals.
Vampriss would snap her fingers, ordering the males to carry her chair away from the stage, giving a glare towards Mischif as she left, one more match to go.
In the back, CM Punk was holding his ribs, getting into his locker room, nearly kicking the door open as his champions were all inside. He looked at them while being helped inside by Steph.
"The hell were you guys? I mean no need to save the champion right? The Andersons and Jarrett could have easily picked me apart once they got done with Goldberg, the hell happened to we're in this together?"
Kidman would speak, removing his shade as he looked like he was dressed to go clubbing.
"Look man relax, I just got here so I had no idea what was going on, why not ask your golden boys over there." He pointed to Priceless.
"Whoa whoa don't even point fingers at us Kidman, you know we had a meeting with the general manager so we couldn't pull away, why not ask Drew."
Punk would turn his head over to Drew whom would give him almost a sneer.
"How about it Drew...what's your excuse?"
Drew would fix the title over his shoulder, darting right into his eyes as he would answer him.
"Unlike these three....I don't have one. Besides, you said you could handle everything yerself did you not?"
Punk would roll his tongue within his cheek, making a fist and would slug Kidman right in the face, yelling at him.
"That's for not showing up on time. You're a crusierweight champion you start acting like one. As far as the rest of you, you're all on notice, it seems the only one being able to impress me lately and whom isn't getting embarrassed is Miss Lea. You guys better start acting like champions or I'll have you all replaced."
Punk left, slamming the door behind as Kidman rose up, trying to fix his glasses and clothes a bit, checking his nose for blood.
The next match would see Ultimo Dragon go one on one with Rey Mysterio, a cruiserweight classic indeed as the fans were into the match as they brought in Classic Lucha Libre vs. Japanesse Wrestling action, getting close to ten minutes until Kidman and Drew stormed the ring, taking them down for no apparant reason, the ref ringing for the bell as both of them would beat the hell out of them, it seemed Punk's influence was starting to wear into them, Drew hitting a Future Shock on Ultimo and Kidman a Shooting Star on Rey as they left the ring, smirking to each other.
Nitro came back from commercial however there was a huge brawl goign on in the back as LOD and Goldberg caught up with Jarrett and the Andersons and nothing was safe. Vending machines, tables, equpitment, dumpters, concessions, doors and windows were all broken within their path as police and what looked like the army were trying to seperate them but they were no match, being pushed aside as The Andersons got in their beat up truck, driving off with LOD hot on their tails, Jarrett getting the final word, bashing Goldberg's head with a guitar and fled the scene, oh this wasn't over by a long shot.
Round 2
Vampriss was brought out for round two of the Angel's Tournament, watching intently as it was Beth Phoenix going one on one with Lita, the fan favorite. These two women would battle it out in almost a war with Lita doing just about every trick she knew but Beth was just too dammed strong, able to get the win over Lita with a Glam Slam, licking her lips slowly as she stared down the aisle way, looking at Vampriss whom snapped her fingers, obviously...not amused.
The first of the double Main Event was underway with John Cena going one on one with Chono. Both men weren't about to take any lip from the other, having a stiff match, Cena being the stronger of the two though Chono had a stronger submission game. Cena appeared to have Chono reeling, bouncing off of the ropes, flooring him with shoulder tackles and signaled for the FU when Chono flipped out of it, bouncing off of the rope and blasted him with the Kenta Kick, Cena getting his shoulder up just in time, though it was too much as Chono would finish him off with a running Tiger Driver, covering Cena for Three, being one of the now three men that could be facing Punk at Halloween Havoc, sliding out of the ring leaving Cena, nearly broken in the ring.
After commercial...and Cena being helped to the back after that vicious attack it was reported that Jesse Ventura was still resting at home, his condition stable at the moment.
Finally it was time for the main event as Great Muta went one on one with Andre the Giant, whom lets face it...was No Giant Baba. Muta stuck to his japanesse roots, going after Andre from all angles, even if the big man constantly kept knocking him down and proving he was ring dominate, Bobby rubbing that in everyones faces each and every time. Andre had Muta up in the air, choking him until getting blinded right in the eye with the Red Mist, burning his eyes as Muta would attack him full on, dropping the big man to a knee, that was all he needed as he connected with the Shining Wizard for two as Bobby put Andre's foot on the rope. Muta rose up, grabbing Bobby and was about to rip his head off when Andre went after him, Muta moving out of the way as the ref and Bobby flew over the ropes to the floor. Muta went for a kick but Andre would just chop and headbutt him down, dropping him with a press slam.

Well it had to happen as through hellfire and brimstone came Kane, sliding into the ring and went right after Andre, punching and slugging it out with him, bouncing off of the rope and hit three big clotheslines, the big Giant not going down. Kane went for another but Andre grabbed by the throat, pushing him back with ease and connected with a powerslam, nearly breaking the ring as he rose up. Kane slowly would sit up but was clotheslined to the floor below, that not stopping him from grabbing a steel chair, bashing it across Andre's back and once over the head, knocking him down in the corner. Kane slammed the chair down as he and Muta would bump into each other, both men turning around, staring at each other.
Muta would signal for him to get out of the ring, not wanting Kane to blow this title chance for him but the distraction gave Andre a chance to hit Kane over the head with the chair, knocking him out of the ring then blasted Muta clear over the head with it, the ref calling for the bell as Andre was disqualified from the match. Andre yelled at the ref, raising the chair to do further damage when Kane yanked it out of his hand, blasting him over the head with it and knocked him to the corner, starting to hit him with a flurry of punches, pulling him from the corner and grabbed his throat, squeezing tightly as Andre would grab Kane's, slowly pushing him down to his knees. Kane started to push himself back up, knocking Andre's hand off and picked him up....only for a second as it was too much, Andre picked up Kane and would chokeslam him down in the center of the ring, Bobby directing traffic as he would drag Kane's body over to the corner, Andre...slowly climbing up to the middle rope, the ring starting to shake as Andre would leap off with a Vaderbomb, crushing Kane right there in the ring, slowly rising up and watched the lifeless Kane just lay there.
It was over as Andre slowly left the ring with Bobby, smirking that they destroyed Kane, refs flying out to check on Kane whom was seriously, seriously hurting and unmoving as Nitro slowly faded to black.

Week Four
Nitro opened up with a rally of jeers as Punk would smirk, standing in the ring with his champions, all of which were grinning from ear to ear. Punk would roll the footage for the Television Audience as earlier that night, Priceless was seen attacking Chono and Drew and Kidman were seen attacking Great Muta, thus, ruining their match for later the evening. Punk would rub his chin, speaking.
"Awww...how sad for all of you....now you're not going to see who's gonna face me at Halloween Havoc. I know I know you were all looking forward to it but I guess, you'll just have to learn to deal with it huh. Maybe next time you'll learn to cheer a true champion for a change."
Punk would grin, the fans just screaming at him as he would slowly turn, looking to the stage and would shrug a little bit, almost as if waiting then spoke again.
"Hmm..no one coming out to stop me, I guess management gave up and finally starting to real-"
[Play Out]
DM slowly made his way to the ring, expressionless as Punk would just smirk at him, slowly 'cleaning' off his suit jacket.
"You look good boss, truely, bout time you got that hair cut. So...what did you come down here to tell me? You made me an opponent right for Halloween Havoc...Ooh let me guess...it's BOTH Muta and Chono right, that's a great way to screw me. Oh no..better yet, it's John Cena and Vader and the Andersons and Kane and all of the Rising Sun Dynasty vs me right? Is that your plan this month to screw me? Just tell me...oh please oh great one tell me whom my opponent is."
DM would just look at him, not saying one word as he heard the fans, curious as to whom he picked for CM Punk.
"First off.....Kidman...Drew...since you had to have your way with Mysterio and Ultimo last week, have fun facing them in tag team action with your titles on the line."
Match Two - Drew/Kidman vs. Rey/Ultimo for the US/Cruiserweight Titles
"Oh...and to make your lives worse...BOTH your titles are on the line..so if Drew or Kidman loses...you both lose."
Drew was ready to slug him as Punk held them back, though DM was just getting started.
"Chono....and Great Muta...are GOING to have their match whether you like it or not...but...the winner will be the number one contender for that...Title over your shoulder...and that'll happen at Halloween Havoc. Oh...and to make it sweeter....they can choose when..and where."
Match Three - Chono vs. Muta - #1 Contenders Match
"Three....Stephanie is banned from your match at Halloween Havoc."
Now he was cooking as Punk was starting to get aggitated, ready to speak back as DM would knock the mic out of his hand.
"As for your opponent at Halloween Havoc...I won't tell you until the end of the night...but I will give you a hint........don't forget.....to look up."
DM would point up to the rafters a bit almost as he would slowly leave the ring as Punk would almost swing at him, yelling at him to not book that match, the fans chanting out as they knew whom it was as the lights would start to flicker just gently, Punk, growling as he left ringside.
Matches
Round 3 - Finals
It was time for the finals as it was Mischif vs. Beth Phoenix for a shot at the Angel's Title with Vampriss, actally at ringside to call the match. Both girls were vicious to say the least, Beth tossing Mischiff around like a ragged doll, Mischif trying to keep the momentum going with submission locks that were easily broken. Mischif tossed to the floor got into the face of Vampriss whom just blew her a kiss, telling her to get back inside the ring as Phoenix was low bridged, giving evil eyes to Vampriss as she re entered into the match. Fifteen minutes had passed and they were getting exhausted, Beth ready to finish the job with the Glam Slam though Mischif was able to roll foward catching Beth in a victory roll and caught the win, advancing. Mischif was exhausted, raising her hand up as Lea would enter the ring, clapping her palms, having a mic.
"Oh..congradulations love....Oh I'm sure this is going to be a wet dream come true for at least two people in the world. What can I say but out of everyone you're the one I'm going to face at Halloween Havoc...well....goodluck."
She would extend her palm, Mischif leary at first and would shake her palm then quickly ducked a clothesline, dropping Vampriss with a Cutter Counter, picking up the mic as she would lean over.
"Ha......typical.....especially for you Lea.or whatever your name is. One thing you.....didn't know...is that....the winner of this tournament....get to name the match type....and if you're....atop the highest alter as an angel...I think it's time....we test that theory........in a.......ladder match."
Match Four - Vampriss vs. Mischif - NWA Women's Title - Ladder Match
What a shock indeed with a ladder match being added to the mix as Lea rolled out of the ring in a bit of shock, almost in fear a little bit. Punk on the other hand, was pacing in his locker room, racking his brain.
"Who is it? Who could it be that he picked for me? Something about the rafters.....wait....wait...it's Jeff Hardy, the only man sick enough to jump from them."
Steph would speak up.
"Well..maybe it's St-"
"No...do NOT say that name in front of me, it's not him, that's too obvious Steph."
Kidman would then speak up.
"Ya know, they are big on one guy....and...it could be Evan-"
"NO, it wouldn't be him either! Just because he's 'airborn' doesn't mean that's what the hint meant, be reasonable."
Drew would speak up.
"You know....three weeks ago they had ROH in here and the Revolution or whatever it's called...did just pick up another member...and you did face him at Worlds-"
"DON"T BE Riducolious Drew! Like RVD would really pull in ratings here. I'm telling ya, he's got something up his sleeve...and it's pissing me off."
The next match saw Ultimo Dragon go one on one with Great Sasuke. In a high calibur match of ten or so minutes it was Dragon getting the win, adding momentum to his match for Havoc.
Afterwards it was a returning Hurricane Helms going one on one with Rey Mysterio whom would put on a good ten minute match with him, but of course got the victory, only giving him more momentum towards the match at Havoc, smirking a bit if that could even be seen.
Once Nitro came back from Commercial break, Bobby Heenan was standing in the ring with Andre the Giant, smirking as he demanded a mic.
"Ladies and Gentleman, standing before you is no mere man but a mere monster of size, strength and girth. A man that single handedly, week after week was able to not only destroy his opponents but eliminated about 90 guys in the battle royal AND.....put Kane out of commision. Now WHO and HOW many people can say that? Oh you don't believe me? Watch the footage."
The tape would roll as it showed the climax of last weeks match where Andre had decimated Kane into mere rubble then squashed him with that Vaderbomb like manuever. What the home audience didn't see was that EMT's came flying down afterwards, placing Kane on a stretcher and had wheeled him out, Kane the whole time, not moving a muscle.
"You see it's quite simple, you battle the Giant and you get hurt and just to prove just how good and powerful he is, tonight, Andre is going to run the guantlet of wrestling three wrestlers at a time, so boys...come on down and prove your worth."
[Play out]
The first one was the rookie Justin Gabriel whom was full of fire, entering the ring as the bell would sound but dispite his efforts, in a mere four minutes, Andre destroyed him, getting the three. Andre rose up as Heenan would then chime out "Next"
[Play Out]
It was Paul Burchill as he came flying down on the rope, having his feet ready to kick him. Andre swung but missed as Burchill came around, hitting him in the back, grabbing him in a sleeper then did a sunset flip stunner, making the big man loopy and started to hit heavy haymakers on him, bouncing off of the ropes but took a hard boot from Andre getting beat right there in the middle of the ring with a pump handle slam as Heenan called out "Next."
[Play Out]
John F'ing Cena was next as he would sprint down to the ring, charging in at the big Giant and would start to slug at him. Cena was way too fast for him as it took a little while but he was able to knock the big man down, the crowd really getting behind him as Cena went to pick him up but fell flat. Andre would start to lay it into Cena whom refused to give up despite his size battling on for a solid ten minutes before Cena started to turn things around, battling Andre to his limit, a few shoulder tackles taking him down then a five knuckle shuffle as he rose up, using all his strength to pick him up for the FU and fell forward, only having Andre for about a second if that, the weight just way too much. Andre would then pick him up and delivered a massive chokeslam then a falling body press slam, finishing Cena's game for three.
Andre did run the guantlet, defeating three men right in a row, raising his arm up with a ring, laughing some as his yellow teeth would just spew his rage, pushing a camera man back with his massive palm.
[Play Out]
After a long interlude, finally from the fire, came Kane and he was dressed in all black and deep red. Andre was ready for him as Kane would enter the ring, going eye to eye with the big man. Andre would take his fist and would punch along Kane, knocking him to the ropes and dropped him with body slam....Kane sat up. Andre would tilt his head as he went after Kane again, choking him to the corner and tossed him from the middle rope....Kane sat up. Andre would charge at him, knocking him down with a big boot...Kane sat up. Andre got frustrated now as he charged in, squeezing the life out of Kane as Kane grabbed him by the throat, both men trying to work the other down as Andre, like always, pushed Kane down. Kane would fight back, rising to his feet but was slowly pushed back down to his knees. Kane had enough as he rose up, hitting Andre's hand off and would grab him by the throat, lifting him for a second but no, Andre was just too big, dropping him with a monster spine buster and dragged him to the corner, slowly climbing the middle rope once again and came down with a Vaderbomb over Kane's body not just once...but twice this time as Andre would smirk, standing in the center of the ring as he finished the job with a chokeslam upon Kane, looming over his body......until Kane sat up.
The posts would ignite on fire as Andre had enough and fled from the ring, Kane was up, the big red Monster wasn't dead as he stood in the ring, setting the ring ablaze as he would point to him and slowly cut along his throat, setting the tone that Kane was coming...and he was coming for him...at Havoc
Match Five - Kane vs. Andre
Back from commercial break, Punk was going to get to the bottom of this, walking down the aisle, talking to steph about something as he would slowly trip over, or at least lose his step over something. He would bend over, picking up a...black bat. He would grit his teeth, tossing it aside and would continue to walk
The final match of the evening would see Jeff Jarrett going one on one with Dean Malenko. The match would run close to ten or so minutes as Jarrett just couldn't get past Malenko, blasting him over the head with the guitar, setting an example for Goldberg that he was coming for him sooner or later, leaving ringside.
[Play Out]
"Alright, cut the crap, it's the end of the show and I've been pacing back and forth, I demand to know whom my opponent is at Halloween Havoc..did you hear me," he would grab a camera man and pulled him into the ring "I demand to know whom my opponent is. No more games, I want to know...now!"
DM didn't even bother with his music, slowly coming out with a grin.
"Have I annoyed you enough?"
"Yes you have, I want answers."
DM smirked.
"Alright...alright...let me drop you a few clues. This opponent looks good in black......and white. This opponent is a.....former...... champion. This opponent.....wrestled at Starrcade. Can't figure it out yet? This opponent....wrestled.....at Super Card. This opponent.....is...well...."
"Cut the crap boss, just tell me who the hell it is!"
Punk's eyes would start to get wide, gritting his teeth a bit as DM continued.
"Punk...you mean you haven't figured it out, hell, I gave you more than enough clues, let me give you the last one.....did you remember to look up?"
Punk would slam the mic down, he was tired of the games as he would look up, not seeing a dammed thing, moving the cameraman a little bit over to the turnbuckle, pointing the camera up, saying he didn't see a dammed thing.
"I don't see a dammed thing, there is nothing up there. Will you just tell me whom it is already before I walk?"
"Alright alright.....but just one last time...look up."
Punk would look up, again not seeing a thing as the camera man came off from the top rope, bashing the camera over his head, knocking him out. The fans were a bit confused as Steph bolted from the ring, Punk was in a bit of a daze as slowly, very slowly the camera man would remove the disguise to reveal himself.....as Ricky Steamboat! Punk would rise up and charged in as Rick just tossed him out of the ring with ease, getting a loud crowd ovation as he picked up the mic, staring down at a loopy Punk.
"Did you miss me? At Halloween Havoc...you and I are finally going to lock up....and this time...it will happen for sure.....in a 60....minute Iron...Man...Match!"
Punk sat up, holding his head in pain, almost crying as now he was screwed indeed as Ricky hit the top rope, pointing at him and signaled that his reign was going to be over as Punk couldn't believe that the match he messed up, was now going to happen and there was no way out of it as Nitro...faded to black.
