Slamboree Build Up And Poster

[DM]

Week 1

The aftermath of Starrcade was sure to be a big one as the fans were treated to a quick replay of the events in hand that took place, the biggest cheering of course being the end of CM Punk's Title reign and Priceless finally losing the World Tag Team Titles. Rumors were floating around that Priceless not only lost the titles but had also split up completely as a team as reports were coming in that there was a huge skirmish in the back post Starrcade and the team had gone their seperate ways. The show officially opened with DM standing in the middle of the ring.
"Ladies and Gentleman, your NEW World Heavyweight Champion, Evan 'Air' Bourne."
The fans screamed out however the video wall would start to flicker a little bit and the lights dimmed down. We were taken somewhere desolate, it looked almost like a dojo of some kind with a pagoda in the background, a figure of a male visibly shown though the face was darkened out. Within the males palm was a mask and the sash and pants of Great Muta. Slowly the voice would speak out, echoing through the arena.
Starrcade de no saigo no yoru, watashi wa kaibutsu kein o taoshitaga, sore wa konoyo no kosuto de kita. Watashi ga natta toki, gurētomuta, watashi wa zankokuna watashi wa hokori ni omotte inaidesu nani ka o shite, kare o fugu. Shitagatte, watashi wa gurētomuta o fūin suru hitsuyō ga arimasu...... Eien ni.
(Last night at Starrcade, I defeated the monster Kane but it came at an unearthly cost. When I became, The Great Muta, I brutally maimed him, doing something I am not proud of. Therefore, I must seal away The Great Muta......Forever.)
The fans didn't quite know what he was saying, having it was implied what he was saying when he would light a barrel on fire, dropping the sash, the pants and lastly the mask inside of the barrel, watching it slowly catch a blaze as the figure slowly backed away, the final camera zooming in on the fire as the fans started to boo a little bit, not really knowing what to make of this as the tron slowly would fade to black.
Unforntunately the fans would have to wait until they saw their new champion as the show would open up officially with the New Angel's Champion Natayla whom was all smiles, entering the ring and would prepare for her first match, granted it was non title as she went one on one with the Anti Angel Serena. In a good solid ten minute match it was Natayla with a burning Clothesline that took Serena down and getting the three count.
The second match on the card saw New Cruiserweight Champion Justin Gabriel square off against Stevie Richards in a fast paced five minute match, Gabriel able to avoid the Stevie Kick and nail the 450 to capture the win, getting taken out thus then after by Billy Kidman whom wanted his title back and made that clear by hitting Gabriel with a powerbomb then a shooting star press, raising the title in the air and dropped it down right upon his chest, leaving him to lay as it was obvious what he was after.
Nitro came back from commerical as the next match would see Hakushi go one on one against the Man they call Vader. Vader would use his power game while Hakushi kept to his striking though the big man proved to be a little too much for him as Vader was able to capture the win, countering the handspring back elbow right into a release german suplex then a Vaderbomb, getting the victory. He yelled into the camera saying something to the effect that Vader was back and ready to take over.
The next match soon after would see former US Champion Drew McIntyre in the ring and he looked non too happy at all. He had a stone cold face and his eyes seethed anger as his opponent was The Hurricane whom got in, perhaps the first slap, and that was it. Drew would literally destroy Hurricane in a matter of five minutes, tossing him around like a ragged doll, hitting stiff shots and kicks, finishing him off with the Future Shock DDT for the three though put the nail in the coffin by grabbing a steel chair and splitting Hurricane's head open with a sickening shot across it. A few refs came down to stop him before he did even worse damage to him, Drew leaving the ring and the bloody chair next to Hurricane, walking up the ramp with a scowl that could break a mirror.
Cameras would cut to the back, Misawa was seen in the locker room with Chono, Taka and Sasuke, all of them not dressed to wrestle, though they were talking about something or someone, it was hard to tell since it was in Japanesse, Chono was on a cell phone while talking with the rest of them, something was up as the door would close once Hakushi entered.
After commercial, DM was back in the ring with the mic in hand.
"Ladies and Gentleman, your NEW World Heavyweight Champion, Evan 'Air' Bourne."
[Play Out]
Cody Rhodes's music would play and Bourne was no where to be seen. Rhodes slowly made his way down to the ring, grinning all the while as he stepped inside, taking a mic, DM just shaking his head some, giving Cody some room to talk, god he hoped this was going to be good.
"Good evening fans of Nitro, the world stopped turning just for a split second once I came out and walked down that aisle didn't it? You could literally feel the heat within the arena rise with each step I made towards the ring. Standing before is the very essence of perfection, the perfect body mass index, the perfect skin, the perfect face, everything on me is granted from god himself and even He is jealous of me. Now for the real matter at hand is the rumor that myself and Ted DiBiase are disbanded, Priceless is no more and truth be told, those of you that have been Twittering and Facebooking...yes..it is true. Last night after Starrcade, I realized that, without me, Priceless....is worthless. I was the heart and soul of the entire team, I was the one getting the crap kicked out of me while Ted just sat there and collected the bones at the end. I was the real talent of the team and after everything was all said and done, I dropped Ted faster than TNA's ratings. It's time for Cody Rhodes to break out on his own and my mission is to head out for the United States-"
[Play Out]
"Whoa whoa, I must have hit my head real hard last night. Cody, did I hear you right, you're going to stand there and say you were the heart of the team? Last time I checked when it comes to talent and heart, that goes directly to me. You were nothing more than just the side kick that told the jokes while I was the one doing all the work. As far as how the team goes, it was my decision to break up the team because I got sick and tired of carrying you and the team to the top of the NWA. If anything Rhodes, I'm the one heading for singles stardum."
"Ooooh really now? Listen here Daddies boy, you wouldn't be worth a dime if it weren't for your name and that's it. Come on Ted look at me, I am god's gift to these people, The Next Generation of superstar and I'm decades ahead of my time."
"Next Generation, put me to sleep why don't you, looks fade but money and wealth last forever and if you think you're going to get to that U.S. Title before I do, that idea is as bankrupt as the XFL."
[Play Out]
"Ladies ladies ladies stop bickering already because finally The Shaman of Sexy, The Duke of Desire, The Oracle of Orgasm, The Prince of Passion, The Rouge of Ravishing, The Monday through Sunday Night Delight, The Human Highlight, I said it once and I'll say it again, The United States Champion, John Morrison! Last night, the two of you got the crap kicked out of ya, Demolition whipped your asses, it was brutal, it was insane it was......Priceless. Now, if the two of you don't mind, I'd like to get in that ring and have my match tonight."
"Now don't get your hair in a curl now Morrison cause if you come down to this ring-"
"You'll what, hit me with the Rhodes Punch or something like that? Come one guys you're putting these fans to sleep and it took me to wake them up, but I'll tell you what since you both seem to be in a lovers tiff right now. Next week I'll take on either one of you and the next week I'll take on the other, if either of you can beat me, I'll give you a shot at my title at Slamboree."
They would think about it, both of them agreeing as Morrison would step into the ring, Priceless..err...Rhodes and DiBiase would leave the ring, Morrison having his match against Bambam Bigelow. In a hard fought 10 minutes Morrison was able to score the win over Bambam with a Chuck Kick, hitting the rope to celebrate when Rhodes jumped him from behind, hitting him with a powerbomb then a moonsault, smirking as he stepped back. Morrison rose up holding his ribs as from behind DiBiase would then jump him, hitting Dream Street, leaving a statement himself as if to try and one up Rhodes, Morrison not at all amused.
Nitro cut to one more commercial as it was set that Morrison would face Cody Rhodes first next week then the week after Ted DiBiase though things were already heating up as Demoliton were going to be in action next week, with Priceless seeming to forfit their rematch for the tag titles, Demolition had a clean slate and new challengers on the horizon as the next match up would see Masahiro Chono square off against Rey Mysterio in a tough ten minute match. Chono was able to put Mysterio away with a vicious powerbomb.
The final match scheduled for the evening would see Arn Anderson whom got a huge rally of boos square off against The Great Sasuke. It was easy to see that Arn was on top of the world though Sasuke gave him a huge run for his money, finishing him off however with a spine buster for the win, rising up and would show the famous four fingers as he left the ring, still seeming quite strong in camp Jarrett lately with Vader also picking up a win earlier that night.
Nitro went to the last commercial as DM was standing in the middle of the ring.
"Okay...Ladies and Gentleman...I hope this works....Please Welcome your NEW NWA World Champion, Evan, "Air" Bourne."
[Play out]
Finally after teasing and teasing Bourne came out to the ring with a rounding ovation of fans as he rose his World Title up, letting the crowd die down as DM handed him a mic.
"Wow....whom would have thought last year, me opening Starrcade in a ladder match against The Hurricane, Ultimo Dragon and Rey Mysterio in a ladder match would lead to me, closing Starrcade this year as the New World Champion! Cruiserweight champion for 12 months, the first NWA Double Champion, my match of course with Jushin Thunder Liger, which by the way, I just may want that rematch, having the match of the year and finally becoming World Champion, needless to say I worked my butt off to get where I am today and this proves every single non believer wrong. I understand that magnitude and responsibility of this title so therefore I am going to defend it with honor, respect and pride so no matter the size or stature I will defend this title whenever it is called upon me-"
[Play Out]
"Okay.....first off, you as World Champion is a complete joke," Punk yelled at him "last night was a complete disgrace to this industry, just like all the other disgraces to this business that became World Champion. Guys like Shawn Michaels, Brian Danielson, The Undertaker-- I'm talking here to SHUT THE FUCK UP! Shawn Michaels won the World Title because he got the sympathy vote for being beat up and because Vince was wadding over his concept of some free spirit stripping ladies man as champion...oh and what became of good ol' HBK, he deserted the fans for his addiction didn't he? Brian Danielson has about as much charisma as a wet towel, he couldn't even face his champion face to face he had to sneak up from behind and win the World Title and he got what came to him. And then we get to the Undertaker who dresses like some druid from the 1600's and actually believes he has the power of darkness yet loses his title to a TNA Reject called AJ Styles. I swear I don't know what put me to sleep more, the match or the nine hour over indulged entrance that only strokes the ego of one man, and that being The Undertaker. You pit me up against ANY three of those men and I'll crush them. Oh and don't get me started on THIS company, Spring Stampede, the FIRST Pay Per View ever and what do we have, Ric Flair, Jeff Jarrett AND Booker T in a fatal four way with John Cena...and who wins...John Cena, the man with 6 GODDAMMED MOVES Wins a WRESTLING TITLE? Why not just give it to some five year old who knows how to punch and kick while you're at it, what was Ricky Steamboat sick that night? Then we get to Jeff Hardy.......Jeff Hardy the man whom you people idolize for some reason, the man that paints his hair purple and has about as much talent as Sabu, the King of XTreme, Mr Jeff Hardy your fan favorite....Whom I destroyed at the Great American Bash and FINALLY a WRESTLER became World Champion and you people jeered me out of the building and yet you cheer this man? A man whom had the match of the year with some yellow japanesse wrestler whom came from a dammed anime show? REALLY? Next thing you'll tell me is that The Miz will be World Champion. I came out here for one thing Evan and that's to take what rightfully belongs to me, so I"m giving you two choices....hand that title back over to me or I'll break your fuckin' neck."
Bourne would look right at him, answeing right back.
"You take one step forward Punk and I'll send you back to the dressing room with your balls in a sling."
They would go eye to eye, they were ready to fight at any moment.
[Play Out]
Jeff Hardy had returned at Starrcade but he was making his presence known tonight as he rolled into the ring, having a mic in hand.
"Damn, did I pick the wrong time to return or what? The way I see it Punk, I cost you your precious World Title last night so that makes us even for what you did to me at The Bash.....but one thing you forgot Punk...is that I"m the Former Champion, meaning....I get my rematch as well. And since you're already making claims to it....I guess I'm going to do the same thing."
"Over my dead body you are Hardy, me and Bourne have unfinished business, once I destroy him, I'll send you packing as well."
"Hey if that's a request Punk."
DM would get in the middle of it, breaking them up as he spoke out.
"Alright enough you guys, we're not going to argue over this, both of you are entitled to a rematch so I'm going to propose this then, both of you-"
"Fuck No"
Punk would then leave the ring, walking up the ramp not wanting to hear any of it as DM Tried to get him back into the ring.
"As long as Jeff Hardy is in the mix, I refuse to have a match cause he'll screw me again. I'm not doing a gimmick match, I'm not earning my spot, I'm not having a triple threat, give Hardy his goddammed rematch first and when he's done, I'll just take the World Title back. I'm not falling for your trap Boss, I'm CM Punk the best thing you have going here and I promise me, if you screw with me this year...I'm jumping ship."
Was that a threat or a promise as Punk left through the curtain though still there were more questions than answers as Nitro was running out of time, looks like everyone would have to tune in to Nitro next week to see what DM had in store for Slamboree as the show would fade to black.

Week 2

Nitro opened up in it's usual manner though it was confirmed that Demolition was going to make their post Starrcade appearance also in action would be Cody Rhodes against Morrison with a chance at the US Title on the line. Nitro didn't waste any time with the first match underway with John Morrison squaring off against Cody Rhodes.
[Play Out]
"Now hold on people, before we get into my match tonight I just want all of you people to know that I will be your next United States Champion and truth be told, there really is no way around that. You see with a name like Rhodes you expect greatness and that is exactly what you're going to get, greatness, something the current champion cannot grant you. So after my win tonight get used to seeing this face, headlining, Nitro."
Rhodes would grin though it would become serious once Morrison came down to the ring whom was all business but took his time getting to the ring. At first Rhodes tried to beat him with a pose off to which the ladies choose Morrsion. Rhodes then would hit a cheap shot which granted him a stiff jab to the face and the match was on. Both of these men showcased everything they had with Morrison sticking to his unorthodox style and Rhodes a ground based style. In the early half Rhodes had taken control until Morrison took control with several counters, seeming to have everything under control until a low blow behind the refs back turned it back around. DiBiase came down to the ring for a birds eye view, climbing upon the apron perhaps to distract Rhodes. During a small scuffle Morrison rolled Rhodes up whom kicked out, Morrison knocking heads with Dibiase as Rhodes would roll Morrison, hooking the tights and scored the win, earning himself a shot at the U.S. Title.
Rhodes slid out of the ring with a girn, looking at DiBiase and would almost say 'that's how it's done' as he walked up the ramp though DiBiase looked on in anger, he would have his chance next week as Nitro cut to commercial.
[Play Out]
Jeff Jarrett made his presence known, coming down to the ring all smiles having the Anderson's and Vader with him, Bishoff must have been in the back working some deals. He picked up a mic, grinning.
"Two weeks ago, Arn Anderson put down the plague that is known as Ric Flair once and foreall. After that huge loss I think it's time for Camp Jarrett to advance into the ranks of greatness. My Andersons have been ducked and avoided since their union for the World Tag Team Titles and it's high time someone like Vader gets a shot at that Pure Wrestling Belt. As for myself, I would finally love to get my hands on that gold around Evan Bourne's waist. Now you can all argue the fact that we haven't earned a thing, but I'm going to tell you all just a little something, since day one I've been here, I've only been given two title chances and none of them were one on one, so therefore, right here, right now, I'm laying my claim to that world champion-"
[Play Out]
CM Punk slowly started to make his way down to the ring, almost having a 'are you serious' look on his face as he slid into the ring, having a mic in hand, not caring if it was 4 on 1.
"Excuse me Jarrett but, I'm not sure what era you're from, but in case you haven't realized, I was the former World Heavyweight Champion, which means, I get the rematch before you do. So why not take your 1970 Relic Ass of yours, along with the two horsemen rejects and fat ass and get the hell out of my ring."
Jarrett stepped right up.
"See, disprect like that is what I"m talking about Punk, you young stars had had your share of the light long enough. Guys like myself, the Andersons and Vader put this company on the map and deserve, no...demand our spots back and show you young pups a thing or two about wresting."
"Wrestling? You're going to sit there and dictate what is and what isn't? How many shows have you attended Jarrett? How many title defenses do you have, in case you haven't noticed, the face of the NWA is no longer Ric Flair, or Rick Steamboat or even Sting, the face of the NWA is CM Punk and if you want to try and make something of it, put me down. Go ahead Jarrett..I dare you, put me down."
[Play Out]
Oh things were heating up with the Rising Sun Dynasty slowly making their way down to the ring with Misawa leading the charge. He would enter the ring with Chono at his side and the rest of the members staring down the opposition.
"You two argue and yes Punk, you may have been a good champion, even defeating Chono in a cage, but one thing you are not...is undefeated, like me. It is time for Mitsuhara Misawa to prove to the world that Japan will once again rule over the wrestling world and if I have to beat both of you, I will."
Jarrett would speak up.
"Well domo arigato Mr. Roboto but in case you haven't realized, the only thing you've done is beat medicore wrestlers, guys like Rey Mysterio, Ric Flair, John Morrison, Eddie Guerrero, I believe you even beat Bambam a few times but that is nothing compared to the Jeff Jarret's of wrestling and if you ask me, your kind belong back in Japan where the rest of you yellow bastards can entertain us with your cheap costumes and horrible music. And as far as the CM Punk's, the Jeff Hardy's and the Evan Bourne's of the NWA, you had your time and now it's our time."
Punk would interject.
"I have great respect for both sides of the table, but lets face it, I"m more rounded, I'm faster and I"m smarter than any of you in this ring, when it comes ot professional wrestling, now and forever, the name is CM Punk."
That was ended off with a slap from Jarrett which would later turn into a melee from all three sides as the crowd went crazy...for some strange reason. Neither side was giving in even though Dynasty had the numbers game the only one to actually assist Punk would be Drew McIntyre whom stormed in with a chair, blasting anyone within his wake, camp Jarrett and Dynasty eventually spilling out to the floor as security came out to stop the brawl though it seemed Punk and Drew were on the same page, dispite their loss at Starrcade as Nitro went to break.
After the break it was announced that Vader would be facing Chris Benoit for the Pure Heavyweight Championship though what else came from that fallout only time would tell. The next match finally on the card would see Cruiserweight Champion Justin Gabriel square off against Ultimo Dragon in a huge top of the hour match. These two lit up the crowd like wild fire, Dragon obviously the veteran of the two, teaching the young man a lesson in wrestling for sure though after fifteen minutes, Billy Kidman had interfered in the match, clocking Dragon with the title then Gabriel, the ref tossing the match out. Kidman hitting each of them with the shooting star press, spitting at them and left the ring, hearing the rally of jeers though it was obvious still what he wanted, a rematch for his Cruiserweight Title.
Next match on the card would see Chris Benoit getting a loud reaction for being Pure Champion as he would put it on the line against Taka Michonoku in a rough ten minute match, Benoit earning the win with his flying headbutt for the victory, Vader later jumping him from behind and proceeded to beat the hell out of him, beating him with a powerbomb and later Vaderbomb, picking up that Pure Title and laughed at it, dropping it down and left the ring, Benoit needing help out of the ring.
Prior to the main event it was announced CM Punk was going to square off against Jeff Jarret next week and from what everyone was being told, Punk was livid at Jeff and also the contract signing between Hardy and Bourne would make it official and Lita would face off against Natalya with the chance for the Angel's Title and plus DiBiase would face Morrison for a shot at the US Title, trying to catch up to Rhodes. Finally it was time for the main event as Demolition, the New Tag Team Champions made their way down to a rousing ovation as they put their tag team titles on the line against a local tag team with a chance of possibly winning the titles. Demolition proved just why they were the tag team champions, taking the young men down within five minutes, hitting their finisher and rose the tag titles up though their celebration didn't last long as Rick Rude had jumped them from behind having Andre right behind him. They would beat the holy hell out of Demolition, Andre doing the most damage hitting each of them with a chokeslam then piled them together, hitting an Avanlanch splash upon them, Rude taking the tag titles and rose them up with Heenan, obviously as their manager, it seemed the Heenan Family wanted the Tag Team Titles for themselves and with no number one contenders stepping up, it was free game as Nitro would fade to black.

Week 3

Week three opened up with a bang with a huge Main Event already announced as Lita would face off against Nattie, should she win, she was granted a title shot and Morrison would square off against Ted DiBiase in the opening bout of Nitro as the show opened.
DiBiase was confident especially with his father in his corner though Morrison didn't come alone as he had Mr. Perfect in his corner to watch just in case DiBiase tried anything. The match went off without a hitch as Morrison was all business tonight, actually being quite stiff in the bout against DiBiase whom stuck to a wrestling game while Morrison tried to outmatch him the best he could. With jibes from both mangers, even a small scuffle even Morrison was able to get most of the momentum towards the end of the match, making sure to avoid the Dream and any of DiBiase's dirty tactics until later on, Morrison made one small error, crashing and burning from the top rope to the floor below. Perfect would help him back into the ring, telling him to fight on as DiBiase took advantage in the later half, Morrison taking a beating for close to five minutes before finally able to turn it around, twenty minutes passing and Morrison wasn't giving this up, actually able to knock Ted Sr. off the apron and dropped DiBiase with the Moonlight Drive, waiting for him to rise and bounced off the rope for the Chuck Kick when Perfect would rope guillotine him, Morrison snapping back right into Dream Street as DiBiase caught the win and his shot at the U.S. Title, rolling out of the ring. Morrison held his head in pain, wondering what in the world all that was for as Perfect had left him at ringside, even the fans getting a bit confused over the matter.
Nitro went to commercial as Kevin Kelly was with Mr. Perfect, trying to figure out what was going on until Morrison actually broke the interview, yelling at Henning over what the hell that was all for.
"It's simple Morrison, I taught you just about everything I know about being perfect and yet you still decide to pose for the crowd and act like a play boy out there. I may not like the man but Jeff Jarrett is right, you younger generation guys are stealing the spotlight that we helped create and it's high time we take it back."
"Take it back? Perfect I did everything you told me and you pay me back in spades, if you want a shot at my title all you have to do is ask-"
Morrison wasn't able to finish as he was jumped from behind by Jeff Jarrett and the Anderson's with Perfect eventually joining in, beating upon Morrison. The fans didn't like that at all though some unlikely help came from that of Drew McIntyre and CM Punk whom would have steel chairs in hand, fighting the opposition off, Morrison rising to his feet and was a bit dumbfounded at the assist though Punk would yell out, asking if Morrison was okay, taking the mic from Kevin.
"You think I'm stupid Jeff? You think I'm stupid? I know exactly what you're trying to do and that's snuff us out of the business, out of the company, well it's not going to fly. Yeah myself and Morrison may not be the best of friends, but we are the same breed of wrestler, you want to band all the old men up we'll take them down, one by one."
Punk slammed the mic down as Drew gave a look to Morrison whom was confused and exited on the other side, the next match had to get underway, seeing the Glamazon Beth Phoenix square off against Serena the Anti Angel and defeating her within five minutes, nearly destroying the young girl to pieces. The next match on the card would see Justin Gabriel defend his Cruiserweight Title against Rey Mysterio, tearing the roof off for a solid ten minutes with Gabriel nearly getting the win until Billy Kidman once again would interfere in the match, really becoming a thorn in the side of the Champion, hitting over the back of the head with a steel chair, knocking him out as the ref rang the bell, warning him to leave the ringside area though he would slid into the ring, taking down Mysterio as well with the chair, spitting as Gabriel and would grab a mic, telling him that the contract had already been signed and he was going to take him down at Slamboree for his Cruiserweight Title, hitting a powerbomb upon the opened chair for added measure.
In the back cameras again had caught up with Jeff Jarrett and his growing band as he would laugh, Vader preparing for his match against Benoit as they met up with Rising Sun Dynasty whom was also walking the hallway, Jarrett just smirked at them.
"Well well if it isn't the Rising Sun Dynasty, god what a stupid name you guys have for yourselves, if you don't mind, the real wrestling talent is heading to the General Managers Office."
Chono looked ready to strike though Misawa held him back
"Funny....we just came back from the General Managers office and it appears our plan is slowly starting to take effect."
"Plan what plan are you spouting now Misawa, you and your band of yellow misfits gonna put on a carnival or something."
Chono would then move Misawa out of the way, going eye to eye with Jeff Jarrett, keeping his shades on as he spoke clearly.
"Sugu ni wareware wa, wareware wa, NWO no watashi-tachi wa dare to wa torenchi de shinde irudarou sekai ni shōmei suru."
Slowly Dynasty would pull away, Jarrett having a look upon his face wondering what the hell that was all about, some of the fans cheering, others puzzled but wanted to know more as the camera would then fade out for commercial. As they came back, Jarrett was in the office with the Andersons and Perfect, wondering what was going on with Dynasty all of a sudden.
"The hell are those Japs plan on doing now in MY NWA Wrestling boss? It better not be something stupid."
"Hey hey easy Jeff, I swear the more you spout off like that the more I'm reminded why TNA failed. Anyway, I decided that, you know, the NWA needs something to help bring back the prestigue of our titles of our organization and I'm a huge fan of tournaments."
"Tournament, what you talking about, like a King of the Mountain kind of thing?"
"Oh no no no nothing stupid like that. Our Tournament is going to take place just after SuperCard, the biggest Cross Promotion Event we have to date, NWA is going to kick things off with a 32 Man Tournament that will be split up into two blocks. The First 16 Men will face off one night until the finals and the last 16 Men will face off on the next night until the finals. The final Four will battle it out at the Sin Pay Per View and the winner will get a World Title Shot Whenever they so Desire AND-"
"Being called what something stupid like the King of the Ring or something like that?"
"No Jarret....the name of the tournament is.....G-1. Oh and here's the best part Jarrett, I already have four guys picked for the Tournament."
"Oh really? And whom are these four lucky individuals?"
"Men that have impressed me over 2010, the first four entered are John Morrison, Masahiro Chono, thanks to his stellar match at SuperCard AND Starrcade Sting....and perhaps the odds on favorite, or at least the one I'm somewhat pulling for......Ricky The Dragon Steamboat."
Jarrett would grit his teeth some, leaving the room a bit as DM just smirked at what he was concocting that was for sure, a 32 Man Tournament that would take place over 2 Nights, oh things were certainly changing for 2011.
The next match on the card would catch The Man they called Vader square off against Christ Benoit for the Pure Heavyweight Title and boy was this a hard fought match that strung out to 20 solid minutes, Vader using his powergame to just thrash Benoit, making fast easy work of him it seemed but the rabid wolverine refused to give into him, unable to get him in any of his submission locks, Vader was just too dammed big and strong. He looked ready to seal the deal with a Vaderbomb though Benoit was playing possum, quickly climbing the top rope and hit a super german suplex then a flying headbutt, trying to continue to job as he tried for another german suplex though Vader kicked out, dropping him with a belly to belly then leapt for a Vadersault though Benoit moved out of the way, using his speed and knocked Vader to the floor below. Vader would re enter and eventually started to hit Benoit with closed fists, the ref warning him a few times giving Benoit a quick chance to drop Vader with a dragon screw, working at the knee and leg, eventually finding the strength to lock in a sharpshooter, the fans going mad. Vader would crawl under the rope, taking Benoit with him as they would brawl out to the floor, taking a standing twenty count as the ref rang the bell for a double count out, Vader almost getting the upper hand though Benoit would outsmart him, ramming him into the post and took his Pure Title, perhaps they would rematch again but tonight, it was however you looked at it a draw for now.
Nitro went to commercial as it came back with the ring covered in tarp and the table with DM standing in the middle of the ring calling both Jeff and Evan Bourne down to the ring getting their respective cheers. DM went over the contract stating that this would be a rematch and nothing more, nothing fancy and that there would be no interferenece whatso ever in this match, both of them would start to nod, signing their names at the bottom of the contract as the match was now set in stone. DM would give them a chance to say last words though it seemed actions spoke a bit louder than words as they would shake hands, each of them leaving the ring seperately, obviously they were taking this quite seriously as the ring crew would set up for the next match though there was some commotion in the back as CM Punk and Drew McIntyre caught up with Camp Jarrett and were starting a brawl in the back which only spilled into Dynasty's Locker room, now starting to get them involved.
Security flew to the scene to try and break them apart as it became a huge melee in the back, General Manager BM had lost control completely in the back as after a moment he yelled out saying that Drew and CM Punk were going to face Jarrett and Arn Anderson and on the other side would be Misawa and Chono since obviously all three sides wanted to fight as Nitro quickly hit commercial.
Nitro would resume as Punk and Jarrett were already in the ring battling it out, the tension had been buidling as Punk took control, also taking a moment to jab at Dynasty a few times during the match, quick tagging Drew in to keep control. Eventually, even if by accident, Chono tagged himself in albeit blindly against Drew as he went to work on Jarrett whom was a punching bag it seemed in the match. After Chono had his fun he pushed Jeff to his corner as he tagged in Arn Anderson and the two of them had a stiff bout, the ref just ignoring the fact they were using closed fists. After some time Anderson was able to take control, battling Chono to his corner as Misawa would tag himself in, now giving Arn a lesson in wrestling, schooling him for a few moments until Punk would tag himself in when he got the chance, bouncing over the ropes and went right after Misawa as some of the crowd would erupt, both of them battling it out for close to five minutes, Drew trying to will him on.
Punk was able to get under Misawa and picked him up for the GTS when Jarrett bashed him over the head with the guitar the match getting tossed out. For Jarrett it didn't matter as Arn would back him up, hitting Chono and Drew out of the ring as Ole and Vader stormed the ring for back up, pounding away at Punk and Misawa, more so leaving Punk a bloody mess in the middle of the ring as Camp Jarrett would strike first blood, leaving the ring with grins, the fans not amused.
Nitro came back from commercial as Rhodes and DiBiase were having an arguement, more so again over Priceless and whom was going to win the world title, Rhodes pointed out the fact that if Perfect hadn't have interfered he wouldn't have won though DiBiase pointed out that had he himself hadn't gone down to the ring Morrision would have trashed him. The arguing would only ensue more until they would start to slug it out, security forced to break it up some as DiBiase then offered him a challenge next week, in tag action the DiBiases vs. whomever Cody Rhodes could manage to pick up, things starting to cool down as Rhodes would back right into....goldust.
"The hell do you want?"
"I just happened to see your little skirmish, what's wrong Cody...you and Teddy not friends anymore? Perhaps you need an ally in arms to face off against your nemesis."
"And what you think I was going to pick you?"
"Well why not little brother, we could be like Romulus and Remus, Kane and Abyle."
"You do know one brother killed the other right?"
"Okay then we can be like Batman and Robin....or actually you're into video games...you can be Link...and maybe I can be-"
"Oh god no! Dustin there's a reason why dad never let you play with the neighborhood kids, you're screwed up in the head man and to be honest...I'd rather team up with The Miz rather than you. Just stay the hell away from me."
Rhodes would then pull away as Goldust just looked on though finally it was time for the main event as Lita would square off against Angel's Champion Natalya. They had the last ten minutes of the show and they put it to good use that was for sure as Nattie had the power and techniqual parts while Lita had the high flying game. These women took it all over the place except for the crowd though neither of them were able to score their finishing move, blocking each others attempts. With only a few minutes to go Nattie started to really take control, tossing Lita around with ease and used her power game to win her over, dropping her with an electric chair and went for the Sharpshooter though a quick small package from Lita would grant her the win. Nattie was a bit shocked over that though Lita had bested her on this night, earning her a shot at the Angel's Title at Slamboree as both women would shake hands though before Lita could really celebrate, DM came out.
"Congrats Lita you have deffinately earned it and needless to say you against Nattie for the Angel's Title at Slamboree is already huge. Next week, I've already booked the main event and if you fans thought this main event was big wait till next week. In one corner will be team Xtreme of Lita and Jeff Hardy going against the combination of Angel's Champion Natalya and World Champion Evan Bourne."
Both women would look at each other as the fans went crazy though also the DiBiase's would face off agaisnt Rhodes and a tag partner of his choice and it was also announced that Demolition was going to respond to The Heenan Family as the show would fade to black.

Week 4

We would start with a huge melee going on as Drew, Punk and Morrison had actually been in a tossle against camp Jarrett and the Rising Sun Dynasty, what started off with Punk trying to conduct an interview had Jarret poke his nose in and then Misawa which turned into complete chaos. There weren't enough officials to stop this as security was forced to come in and break all of them apart, Jarrett screaming that he was taking his NWA back and Misawa waving the Japan colors proudly, Punk able to slide into the ring and took a mic, almost foaming at the mouth.
"Screw this, the two of you want a piece of me, you got it. I'm willing to put my World Title Rematch on the line against both of you at Slamboree so I can prove to the world that I AM the face of the NWA."
He would toss the mic like a baseball at Jarrett, clocking him in the head as he picked it up, speaking.
"You stupid bastard, you want a fight, count me in."
Jarrett was in as cameras would pan to Misawa whom would just nod as it seemed the match was on, a triple threat match for the next shot at Bourne or Hardy's World Title at Clash of the Champions, Punk seeming to put it all on the line for this one. Cameras would move to the back as Hardy and Lita were preparing for their Main Event match, commenting that it had been years since they last teamed together, the only one missing of course being Matt, dispite that fact they were going to take down Nattie and Bourne tonight and take back their titles at Slamboree, tonight they were going to the Extreme.
[Play Out]
The DiBiase's were in full spirits tonight ready to take on Cody Rhodes.
[Play Out]
"Excuse me for just one moment, tonight, I'm going to shock the world with my tag partner. DiBiase...and DiBiase, money may buy you guys anything you want but it deffinately can't buy you god given talent. Now I could easily take both of you down but you offered me a tag match and I got myself a tag partner, the very best tag partner anyone can pick up. He's a killer, he's ruthless, he's unbeatable...he's....GOLDBERG."
[Play Out]
Well this was a surprise...for about five seconds as Goldust started to come down to the ring. Rhodes had a perplexed look upon his face as he would enter wearing golden tights, gloves and boots.
"Whoa whoa whoa, what the hell is this? I asked for Goldberg not Goldust, what the hell are you doing?"
"You did ask for Goooooldberg did you not? Well...based upon that, you got Goldberg. It says so even on the back of my tights if you just take a look."
"Oh god no. This is ridiculous, I refuse to fight alongside you."
"It doesn't have to be alongside, I can stand at your front, or even at your back, whatever burns those bubbles of rage in the spirit of competition. You just give me two minutes with them and I'll hit them hard with my.....JackHammer...and then I'll.....Spear em down and then you can...lay over them and get the three if you want."
"Jesus Christ.....look lets just get this over with."
Rhodes had no choice in the matter as the match went on, Cody deciding NOT to tag his brother in dispite the 'Gold'berg chants as DiBiase and Rhodes fought it out. After a few moments the DiBiase's were starting to take control, beating and pounding on Cody, double teaming him as Rhodes had more than one occasion a chance to tag out but again, refused. Five more minutes would pass and Cody was just getting beaten like a government mule as he was forced to tag himself out, Goldberg taking charge like wild fire and would go to work on the young DiBiase, using Goldberg like tactics and then Goldust tactics, making it quite confusing for him to even begin to battle him as Ted Jr. tagged out, giving his father a chance whom had about the same amount of luck. Goldust was taking complete control until a thumb to the eye started to turn the tides, Cody refusing to tag in, allowing his brother to take some punishment until he started to turn it around, fighting back and would actually hit DiBiase with a Jack Hammer, blindly tagging Cody back into the ring and would nail Ted Jr. with a spear as Rhodes was a bit perplexed, he was the legal man and slowly climbed the top rope, leaping for a moonsault and splashed down as the ref would count to three.
Cody was, stunned for a moment as he and Goldust's hands were raised and for some reason the fans were cheering though he wouldn't accept his brother's hand, leaving the ring still quite perplexed over the whole entire thing, Ted Jr. hitting Goldust from behind with Dream Street and laid him out, growling at Cody as they still had a date with destiny for the U.S. Title at Slamboree.
In the back, CM Punk could not wait to get his hands on Jarrett and Misawa, getting stopped by Lord Alfred Hayes, whom wanted a comment or two.
"You want a comment? Here's a comment for you, in case you haven't noticed, ever since my arrival here in the NWA the Legends or 'NWA' Elite as they want to call themselves have been doing nothing but try and push the new talent out of the water. We're not going anywhere and if Jeff Jarrett wants to take his band of old men and try and rub me out then he's going to have a war on his hands. The days of the NWA of old are over and a New Era has begun. Granted I'm not friends with most of the young guys in the back, the last thing we want to see is Jeff Jarrett on top of the NWA and I can safely speak for everyone I will make sure that never...EVER happens so long as I'm breathing air."
Punk would storm off in a rage though on the other side of the arena Jeff Jarrett was talking to his current camp, a camera tried to be sneaky and catch what he was saying.
"Guys like Evan Bourne, Jeff Hardy, John Morrison, CM Punk, all those guys they had their chance, hell, I backed Cena for almost a year and it got me no where but being stabbed in the back when he wouldn't grant me a title shot fairly. The current general managers talk and preach about wrestling purity and old school and yet, how many main events have we been given? Zero. They'd rather push those damned Cruiserweights and those floosy women and can care less about the World Title. That's why I've assembled you all here-"
The door was then closed shut by a black gloved hand, the camera man falling flat and was unable to catch whom it was, the feed going dead though it was now left up to the fans on whom it was.
The next match up after commercial break would see Justin Gabriel whom was a bit cautious about Billy Kidman being ringside doing commontary would face off against Hakushi from the Rising Sun Dynasty and had the best match he could with distractions from the outside. Gabriel may have been champion but he was still what many called a 'green champion' since he couldn't focus well enough on the match to score any real offense until the later half of the bout, Kidman speaking up on commontary.
"You know guys like Gabriel, they're a dime a dozen, he was dammed lucky at Starrcade and I'm taking my title back."
"You sound so confident Billy after all you have been jumping him from behind for the last three weeks."
"Oh stop his kind are used to that. He's south african isn't he? His type of people are used to getting beaten from behind and thrown in the trenches and after I beat him at Slamboree they'll have to start up a children's fund and put his ugly mug on tv. Hell for 5 cents a day we can feed him and educate him."
"Billy Kidman you know comments like that are going to get you kicked out of here."
"Hey I'm white and I'm proud but it could be worse, I mean we could have a chink as our cruiserweight champion or hell why not put it on that illegal immigrant Rey Mysterio while we're at it, god I can't wait to get my hands on him at Slamboree then you all can cheer a real champion, a pure bred champion and not one that smells like watermelon everytime he sweats."
Just then Gabriel whom was tossed out to the floor had actually heard that last comment and kicked Billy square in the face then got back into the ring, having renewed vigor as he would taken down Hakushi in a few moments, splashing down with the 450 and got his hand raised, only to be hit in the back with a steel chair. Kidman would then raise that chair up and blasted him ten times over the back, legs, chest, ribs and once over the head for good measure, busting him clean open. Kidman would then punch over his head a few times and left the ring officials coming down to assist Gabriel as Kidman had a scowl upon his face, he wanted his title back and it was almost too obvious now.
Back from commercial, Rick Rude and Andre the Giant were tearing apart a local tag team, making it look easy as Rude was more so toying with them and Andre finished them off in the end with powerbombs on top of one another, pinning both of them with ease as he rose up and chokeslammed them out of the ring with an evil laugh. Bobby would then get on the mic proclaiming that his men were heading into Slamboree and walking out the new tag team champions however there were two men that didn't quite agree to that, their names being Ax and Smash whom barreled down to the ring, clotheslining Rude out of the ring and went right to work on Andre, punching and kicking at him. Andre would start to fight back, easily taking them down due to his size, tossing them to the corner and rushed in though both Demolition moved out of the way, he hit the turnbuckle as Demolition would hit at the knees, Andre slowly going down as they would then, even if it took four times, clotheslined him out of the ring. The crowd erupted as Axe took a mic.
"You wanted our answer, and you got it. The two of you want to get your asses kicked at Slamboree, you bring the asses and we'll bring the beating."
Demolition was not to be taken lightly as they were ready for a fight right there and then though they would have to wait obviously as the Heenan Family would start to retreat back, Demolition ready for Slamboree as cameras cut to the back as Evan Bourne and Nattie were discussing strategy for their Main Event which was only moments away.
The next match on the card prior to the Main Event would see Pure Champion Chris Benoit go one on one with William Regal in a ten minute match which saw Benoit defeat Regal via pinfall, granted he still looked banged up from Vader last week, no word on if he would get a rematch or not as cameras would focus upon Todd Grisham.
"Well things are starting to shape up around here, it's the NWA and a New Era is former, that appears to be the Theme for this month and perhaps this year as we have six huge matches lined up for Slamboree, five title defenses and a triple threat to determine the next #1 Contender for the World Title, Jesse I'm already hyped up."
"Well I can tell you one thing Grish it's going to be a wild night indeed however you want to look at it and I don't know exactly what's going on with this turf warfare all of a sudden but I can't wait to see what develops."
[Play Out]
Coming out to their old Team Xtreme theme Hardy and Lita were ready to roll and rumble, hearing the chants.
[Play Out]
Bourne and Nattie got an equal responce as they strolled into the ring, raising their titles up and prepared for their match. Nattie and Lita would start the show off, giving the crowd almost the same match they had a week prior though they seemed in high spirits, perhaps due to having tag partners. After a few moments each of them would tag out, giving Hardy and Bourne a chance to mix it up, none of them scoring any real offense due to each of them having similar styles and knowing how to counter wrestle. Eventually it would spill out to the floor with both men slugging it out, Lita taking the iniative and would sault over the ropes, splashing down upon both of them though Nattie took a chance herself, leaping off the rope with a cross body, splashing upon all three of them. Once back in the ring Bourne and Hardy would really start to turn up the fire, hitting each other hard with high offense moves, neither side really getting the upper hand and once the women got back into the mix, then little by little even the double team manuevers to really work as both sides were battling for dominance, slowly Bourne would drop Hardy after countering a Twist of Fate, crawling over to the corner as Lita came in to try and stop him, Nattie tackling her down and quickly locked her in the sharpshooter. Lita tried to fight out of it, reaching for Jeff whom was a bit groggy, Bourne mounting the top rope and readied himself. Lita would push Nattie off of her, falling to the floor as Lita crawled to Jeff whom grabbed her palm and pulled her over him as Bourne crashed down hard upon Lita.
Bourne rolled off, not expecting to land on Lita as he pulled up, Hardy taking advantage of Bourne's concern and would drop him with a Twist of Fate, covering for three. Jeff caught the win as he helped Lita to her feet whom was holding her ribs, it took an extreme measure to win but it had to be done as Hardy set the tone that he wanted his title back scoring an early win agaisnt Bourne whom rolled out of the ring, helping Nattie to her feet as they would slowly back peddal a little bit, Team XTreme celebrating in the ring as indeed it may have been a New Era as Nitro would fade out.

It's a New Era indeed as Slamboree kicks off with six sensational matches, Justin Gabriel defends his Cruiswerweight Title against Billy Kidman, Demolition fend off against the Heenan Family with Rick Rude and Andre the Giant, Women's Champion Natayla fends off against the Queen of XTreme Lita, John Morrison puts his U.S. Title on the line against Cody Rhodes and Ted DiBiase, CM Punk puts his rematch on the line as he, Jeff Jarrett and Mitsuhara Misawa face off in a triple threat match for the #1 Contendership at Clash of the Champions and the Charismatic Enigma Jeff Hardy goes on on one with NWA's New World Champion, Evan 'Air' Bourne -- All this can be seen live and you can only catch it this Sunday on Pay Per View.
