The Burnout logo and entrance video appears, then the camera is shown on Eric Bischoff’s office.
Bischoff: Hello and welcome to GPW Burnout. I’ll get straight to the point. For those who don’t know, we have been doing live events for quite some time. Our world champion is arguably the biggest star in the history of this industry, The Rock. Our international champion is Lance Storm. Our cruiser-x champion, which is another name for the light heavyweight title, is Petey Williams. And our women’s title isn’t held by anyone right now. Our champion was Linda Miles aka Shaniqua. But she suffered a torn ligament, so the title is held up. And tonight, there will be a battle royal to determine the next women’s champion.
Also, tonight, you will find out who will face The Rock at our first pay-per-view, Summer Clash. The only people who know about the match are me, and that person. So tonight, The Rock will find out first hand who his opponent is.
Here’s the funny part. I asked Vince McMahon if I could maybe have a few superstars to come here to GPW. He’s like you can have anybody in the WWE, just not wrestlers. And I had my lawyer with me, so here’s what happened. I was somehow able to sign Stephanie McMahon. She had this weird vision that she wanted to wrestle. Whatever. And I was able to sign one more guy. He does not have a wrestling contract, but an announcers contract. Welcome to the commentating booth, John Bradshaw Layfield.
JBL’s music hits and he comes out smiling and waving to the crowd.
Tenay: What? JBL? I’m working with JBL? For those who don’t know, I used to announce these show with The Franchise, Shane Douglas. We used to announce our live events and put them on DVD. I was wondering why I was out here by myself.
JBL comes over to the announcer’s table, shakes Mike Tenay’s hands, and puts on his headset.
Tenay: JBL, I’ve got to say that this is quite unexpected.
JBL: Mike Tenay, the Wrestling God is glad to be here. As soon as Vince McMahon made that crucial mistake, Eric Bischoff knew that he needed someone on the level of JBL to be here. I have to say I’m very excited about announcing here. This company has greats like The Rock, Goldberg, Jeff Jarrett, Chris Jericho, Christian, and Jeff Hardy. Then it has up and coming stars like Monty Brown, A.J. Styles, Homicide, Petey Williams, Elix Skipper, and tons more. I’m ready to start now.
Tenay: On that note, let’s start our opening contest.
Frankie Kazarian & Matt Bentley w/Traci vs. Juventud Guerrera & Petey Williams
Petey and Bentley start it out in the ring. They tie up, and Bentley shoves Petey down. Petey gets right back up and nails Bentley with a drop kick. Bentley furiously gets back up and Petey gives him an arm drag, and he puts him in an arm bar. Still frustrated, Bentley goes over to the ropes and tags in Kazarian. Kazarian goes for a clothesline, but Petey ducks, and gives Kazarian a neck breaker. Petey goes for the quick cover. 1.……2.…and Kazarian kicks out just after two. Petey goes over to the corner and takes in Juvi. Juvi climbs the top rope, and gives Kazarian a double ax handle. Juvi goes for the cover. 1.….2...and Kazarian kicks out. Juvi picks Kazarian up, gives him a snap suplex, and tags Petey back in.
Tenay: Interesting to note how well Petey Williams and Juventud Guerrera are working together, considering that they don’t have experience as a team.
JBL: Mike Tenay, it won’t take long before their egos collide. Matt Bentley and Frankie Kazarian have been partners many times, and therefore have the edge in this match.
Petey comes in the ring, kicks Kazarian in the mid-section, Irish whips him into the ropes and gives Kazarian a drop kick on the way back. Petey signals for an early Canadian Destroyer, but Kazarian flips him over. But Petey lands on his feet, and gives Kazarian an enzigiri. Petey goes for the cover. 1.…….2.…but Kazarian kicks out. Petey tags Juvi back in. Juvi comes in and gives Kazarian a scoop slam. Juvi then climbs to the top rope, goes for a leg drop, and hits it. Juvi goes for the cover. 1.……..2.……but Bentley comes into the ring to break up the cover.
Tenay: If it wasn’t for Matt Bentley the match could have been over.
JBL: Frankie Kazarian needs to get in just one move so he has enough time to go tag Matt Bentley who is fresh and anxious to get in the ring.
Juvi picks Kazarian back up, and Juvi tags in Petey. Petey comes in, kicks Kazarian, and gives him a DDT. Petey climbs the top rope, goes for an elbow drop, but Kazarian rolls out of the way, and both men are down. Both men are crawling to their respective corners.

Petey charges at Bentley, but Bentley throws him over the top rope. Juvi misses a clothesline, and Bentley gives him a back body drop. Bentley picks Juvi back up, and gives him a belly-to-belly suplex. As he’s doing that, Petey grabs Kazarian’s legs and knocks him off the apron. Bentley is too busy working on Juvi, and Petey goes over to the announcer’s table.
Tenay: What’s Petey Williams doing?
JBL: He’s grabbing the cruiser-x title belt.
Tenay: I don’t know what Petey Williams has in mind with that title belt.
Petey charges at Kazarian with the belt, but Kazarian clotheslines him. Kazarian picks Petey up, but Petey gives him a low blow. Traci comes over to check on Kazarian. In the ring, Juvi gave Bentley an upper cut, and Bentley fired back with another belly-to-belly suplex. Juvi is down, and Bentley is staggering. On the outside, Petey waits for Kazarian to get up, and Traci is trying to help out Kazarian. Kazarian gets up, Petey goes to hit him with the belt, but Kazarian ducks and Petey hits Traci in the face with the cruiser-x title belt.
Tenay: Oh my God! Petey Williams just hit Traci in the face with the title belt!
JBL: This is not a good situation, Mike.
Matt Bentley storms out of the ring. He shoves Kazarian down to the floor and starts yelling at him. Referees come down to aid to Traci, but Bentley tries to scare them away. Bentley picks Traci up, and helps her to the back.
JBL: Matt Bentley is walking out on his partner! What a chicken!
Tenay: Chicken? This man’s girlfriend, or I assume girlfriend, maybe just manager, just got hit in the face with a title belt. That’s more important then this damn match.
JBL: Still, Matt Bentley could have allowed referees and other personnel to attend to Traci. Now he left his partner all alone.
Petey shoves Kazarian into the guard rail, and throws him back into the ring. Juvi picks Kazarian up, and gives him a brain buster DDT. Juvi then goes for the cover. 1.………2.………….3.
Winners: Juventud Guerrera & Petey Williams
JBL: Thanks to Matt Bentley, The Canadian Destroyer and The Juice come out victorious.
Tenay: Would you cut it out? Matt Bentley is helping out Traci who just got hit in the face of a title belt, that’s a serious issue.
Petey and Juvi celebrate. Juvi goes to hand Petey his title belt, but hits Petey in the face with it. Juvi then climbs to the top rope, and gives Petey a frog splash. Juvi looks at the title belt, and drops it on Petey.
JBL: What was that for? Juventud Guerrera just double crossed his tag team partner. Is that the new fad in GPW?
Tenay: It looks like some sort of statement, maybe Juventud Guerrera wants a cruiser-x title shot. Folks, it’s been a hectic beginning to GPW on television, don’t go anywhere.
Commercial Break
Backstage, Matt Bentley is with Traci, and Eric Bischoff walks by.
Bischoff: Is everything okay?
Bentley: No, Bischoff, it’s not okay. Do you know? Because of Frankie Kazarian.
Bischoff: Well is there anything I can do?
Bentley: Yeah, there’s something you can do. How about giving me a match against that son of a bitch next week?
Bischoff: Here’s your friend Matt, I’m sure it was an accident.
Bentley: I don’t care Bischoff! Give me a match with Kazarian next week!
Bischoff: Okay fine, next week, it will be Matt Bentley against Frankie Kazarian.
Jeff Jarrett vs. Billy Gunn
Jarrett looks like he wants to do a test of strength battle to start off the match. He proceeds to kick Gunn, but Gunn telegraphs it, stops Jarrett’s foot, spins Jarrett around and gives him a clothesline. Gunn sends Jarrett into the ropes, and flips him over. Gunn picks Jarrett up, sends him into the ropes, but Jarrett grabs the ropes, goes under them, and retreats to the outside.
JBL: Things like that make Jeff Jarrett so smart. He is truly a pleasure to watch.
Tenay: What do you mean a pleasure to watch? Every match from Jarrett we see a low blow, a guitar shot, or some sort of interference.
JBL: Tenay, Jeff Jarrett does whatever it takes to win.
Jarrett climbs up the ring apron. Gunn comes over, but Jarrett pokes him in the eye. Jarrett comes back in the ring, and gives Gunn a shot in his right leg. Jarrett then gives Gunn a drop kick in his right leg. Jarrett sets up for the figure four, and locks it in. Gunn refuses to give up, and climbs toward the ropes.

Jarrett gets out first, and waits for Gunn to get up. Jarrett goes for the Stroke, but Gunn reverses it into a Russian leg sweep.
Tenay: What a counter by Billy Gunn!
JBL: I’ll give Billy Gunn credit for that good veteran-like move, but his leg must be in bad shape from being in the figure four for an extended period of time.
Gunn gets up first, then waits for Jarrett to get up. Jarrett gets up, and Gunn plants him with a DDT. Gunn goes for the cover. 1.…….2...and Jarrett kicks out. Gunn picks Jarrett back up, and goes for the one and only, and hits it.

Jarrett brings the guitar in the ring. He swings for Gunn, but Gunn ducks, and takes the guitar. Gunn is about to hit Jarrett with the guitar, but the referee pulls it away from him.

Winner: Jeff Jarrett
Tenay: What a surprise, Jarrett cheats his way to victory.
JBL: Hold on Tenay, you’re sounding like Michael Cole. Billy Gunn tried to use the guitar, and Jarrett seized the moment.
Tenay: Jarrett brought the guitar in the ring in the first place, and you surely know that, JBL.
JBL: Whatever. It looks like Jarrett has something to say.
Jeff Jarrett grabs the microphone.
Jarrett: I have some bad news to all of my fans. It seems as if the King of the Mountain is not getting a title shot at Summer Clash. This is ridiculous and absurd. Eric Bischoff said he told the #1 contender about it, and I didn’t get anything from him about it. I cannot believe this tragedy that is going on. So what I want Eric Bischoff to do, is to come out, and to give me my title match. I….
Goldberg’s music hits and he comes out.
Goldberg: Jeff, I heard you complaining about not getting the title shot. Guess what, I didn’t get it either. Instead of complaining about it, I am going to do something about it. It looks like Rock won’t be next, so, YOU’RE NEXT!
Jarrett: Woah, woah, woah! Calm down there Bill. We know I could take you any day of the week.
They stand face to face. Jarrett slaps Goldberg in the face. Jarrett then smiles and struts around the ring. Jarrett turns around, and Goldberg gives him a spear as the crowd goes crazy. Goldberg signals to the crowd, picks Jarrett back up, and gives him a jackhammer. Goldberg then leaves the ring as the crowd cheers and Jarrett’s hurt.
JBL: That was totally uncalled for!
Tenay: Jarrett was complaining, Goldberg came out, and shut him up. Jarrett smacked Goldberg, so Goldberg retaliated and took Jarrett out. Up next, we will crown a new women’s champion, in battle royal fashion.
Commercial Break
Tenay: Coming up next, our divas will compete in a battle royal. There were eight divas in GPW. Shaniqua, the champion, is injured for an extended period of time and had to give up the women’s title belt. And due to being hit with a title belt earlier tonight, Traci will obviously be unable to compete. So six women will battle it out. The rules of this battle royal are as follows. You can be eliminated by pin fall, submission, or being thrown over the top rope. When it gets down to two divas, you must win by pin fall or submission.
Women’s Title, Battle Royal: Christy Hemme vs. Gail Kim vs. Molly Holly vs. Sable vs. Stacy Keibler vs. Stephanie McMahon
All women start out as far apart from each other as they can. Gail and Molly are the first ones to lock it up. Molly puts Gail in a headlock, and takes her down. Stacy goes after Stephanie, and Irish whips her into a corner. Stacy stretches her leg against Stephanie’s throat. Sable slaps Christy, and puts her into the corner. She gives her three kicks to the gut. Sable then gives Christy a snap mare, and kicks Christy hard in her back. Stacy gives Stephanie a scoop slam, and Gail runs to the ropes and gives Molly a leg drop. Gail goes for the cover. 1.…..2..and Molly kicks out. Stephanie then gets up and slaps Stacy. Christy then gets up, and she’s slapped by Stephanie. Stephanie then slaps Gail Kim as well. Stephanie slaps Molly also, then Molly punches Stephanie in the side of the face, and Stephanie turns around, Sable kicks her in the gut, sets her up for the Sable Bomb, and connects. Sable goes for the cover. 1.………2.………….3.
*Stephanie McMahon is eliminated*
Tenay: Stephanie McMahon went on a slapping spree, and got eliminated.
JBL: This shows me how inexperienced Stephanie is. A billion dollar princess shouldn’t be locking it up in the ring. But Stephanie is determined to do this, so being a McMahon, I’d expect her to train very hard and be back better then ever not before long.
Sable show boats for the crowd, and Stacy gives her a spinning heel kick. Stacy goes for the cover. 1.……..2.……..and Sable kicks out right before three. Molly then picks Stacy up, and gives her a back body drop. Molly turns around, and Gail meets her with a hurricanrana from the top rope. Gail waits for Molly go get up, and Christy rolls up Gail from behind. 1.……2.…….and Gail just kicks out. Both women get up and Gail clotheslines Christy. Molly then gives Gail a neck breaker. Molly picks Gail up, and gives her a scoop slam. Molly brings Gail near the ropes, who is right by Sable. Molly picks Sable up, and gives her a scoop slam onto Gail. Molly turns around, and Stacy and Christy give her a double clothesline that sends her over the top rope.
*Molly Holly is eliminated*
Christy is caught up in the moment, and Stacy grabs her from behind and sends her over the top rope as well.
*Christy Hemme is eliminated*
Tenay: Two divas eliminated right there.
JBL: Crucial mistake by Christy Hemme. There are no friends in battle royals, especially when titles are on the line.
Tenay; Nonetheless, it’s down to Stacy Keibler, Sable, and Gail Kim.
Sable then attacks Stacy from behind. Sable gives Stacy a snap mare, followed by a kick to the back. Gail runs to the ropes and gives Sable a flying head scissors. Gail goes for the cover. 1.……2.……and Sable kicks out. Gail then gets back up. She heads to the top rope, goes for a leg drop, but Sable rolls out of the way. Stacy is the first one up, and she picks Sable up. She brings Sable into the corner. She chokes Sable’s throat in the corner with her boot. Gail gets up, and grabs Stacy’s leg, and throws her to the ground. Gail goes over to Stacy, and locks in the Boston crab. Sable gets out of the corner. Stacy is crawling towards the ropes, and is about to reach them, but Sable kicks her hands. Stacy is forced to tap out.
*Stacy Keibler is eliminated*
JBL: Smart move by Sable. Get Stacy out of the match, and you have a spot in the final two.
Tenay: One of these ladies, Gail Kim or Sable, will walk out of here as the new women’s champion.
JBL: And to tell you the truth Mike, it could really go either way.
As Gail gets out of the Boston crab submission, Sable comes and rolls her up. 1.………..2.…………and Gail kicks out. Sable then knees Gail in the mid-section, and picks her up, and gives her a suplex. Sable picks Gail up, goes for a TKO, but Gail reverses it into a bulldog, and Gail goes for the cover. 1.………2.………and Sable kicks right out. Gail picks Sable up, and signals for a spinning DDT. Sable then gives Gail a rake to the eye. Gail holds here eyes, and Sable rakes her in the eyes for a few seconds straight. Sable kicks Gail, sets her up for the Sable Bomb, and connects. Sable goes for the cover. 1.…………2.…………..3.
Winner and NEW Women’s Champion, Sable
Tenay: Sable wins the women’s title thanks to nearly blinding Gail Kim for a few seconds, and then hitting the Sable Bomb.
JBL: What do you mean blinding Mike? All ladies have sharp nails, Gail had just as big of an advantage as Sable did. That was very smart on Sable’s part.
Tenay: Up next, don’t miss it, Chris Jericho will be hosting the Highlight Reel, and his guest will be The Rock. Will we find out who the #1 contender is for Summer Clash? We’ll find out, next.
Commercial Break
The show comes back on, and Chris Jericho is standing in the ring. Jericho grabs a mic.
Jericho: Welcome Jerichoholics to the Highlight Reel featuring your hero, Y2J, Chris Jericho. First off, let me make an announcement. Right here, next week, all my Jerichoholics will be treated to another Highlight Reel! But that’s next week, this is this week. As for my guest, it really doesn’t get any bigger, because, you know, I’m the host, not a guest. But anyway, he’s the GPW champion. He is The Rock!
The crowd goes crazy as The Rock comes down to the ring. The Rock grabs a mic as the crowd is still buzzing.
Rock: Finally, The Rock, has come back, to St. Louis!
Jericho: Thank you Rock for taking time to appear on the Highlight Reel.
Rock: Oh it’s The Rock’s pleasure. So let me just ask you, are you secretly the #1 contender for The Rock’s world title?
Jericho: I wish I could say it was, but unfortunately it’s not. But I will tell you one thing. I know you were not aware of this, but Eric Bischoff told me to tell you this. I’m glad you’re wearing your wrestling gear plus that shirt of yours, because immediately following the Highlight Reel, you will be taking on Lance Storm in a champions vs. champions match. No titles are on the line, but it’s a huge match.
Rock: That’s fine with The Rock. He came to St. Louis to whoop some candy ass.
Jericho: Well good luck in your match Rock. But I’m dying to know, and I’m sure you are too, Rocky. Let’s find out who your opponent is.
Jericho and Rock both stare at the titantron, and nobody comes out.
Rock: Just what The Rock thought, nobody…..
Monty Brown’s music hits and cuts off The Rock.
Tenay: Monty Brown?
JBL: It is Mike Tenay. It looks like it’s Monty Brown vs. The Rock at Summer Clash.
Monty Brown enters the ring and stares at The Rock.
Rock: Who is this roody poo? Introduce yourself.
Monty: You know who I am, Rock. You just want me to fall for your stupid little kindergarten games so you can tell me that it doesn’t matter what my name is. No, the Alpha Male doesn’t play those games.
Rock: So Eric Bischoff chose you to lose to The Rock at Summer Clash, that’s pretty interesting.
Monty: I won’t be doing any losing, Rock. You come out here, week after week, not shutting up. Now….
Rock: Please Alpha Female, do us all a favor. Know your role, and shut your mouth!
Monty: Very original Rock. If you keep it up, do you know what you will feel?
Rock: Enlighten me Monty Brown, what will The Rock feel?
Monty: You, will feel, the
Rock: It doesn’t matter what The Rock will feel!
Monty: I…..
Rock: Wait, before you say anything. The Rock knows what you are capable of. You have that finishing move that you call the Pounce. Well, The Rock does have some advice for you. You can take that Pounce, mix it in with your red tights, stir it up with your cheetah jacket, shine it all up real nice, turn that son of a bitch sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!
Monty looks mad as The Rock continues to talk.
Rock: If ya smmmmmmmmelllllllllllllllllllllll…………what the Rock, is coo
Monty Brown gives Rock a clothesline before he can finish. Jericho gets out of the way not wanting to get involved. Brown grabs a stool and hits Rock on the back with it. He throws that stool out of the ring, grabs another stool, and hits Rock with that too. Brown clears the set to make room. He brings Rock toward the ropes, Irish whips him, Brown runs to the ropes, and Brown gives Rock a Pounce.
Brown: Rock, now that you’re down, you can finally shut up and let the Alpha Male speak. You had to feel it first hand, and Rock, you just felt the PPPPPPPPPPOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNCCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEE…………….PERIOD!
Monty Brown drops the mic and heads over to the announce table.
Tenay: Monty Brown just gave The Rock the Pounce!
JBL: The Rock was disrespecting a superstar like Monty Brown, and Rock paid for it.
Tenay: It looks like Monty Brown is joining us for commentary.
Monty Brown grabs a mic set and shakes JBL’s hand, then doesn’t acknowledge Mike Tenay.
JBL: Monty Brown, it is a pleasure to have you here calling the match with us.
Monty: Thank you JBL. And after what I just did, I don’t know if there will be much of a match.
Tenay: Why Monty, did you attack The Rock? Couldn’t it have waited until Summer Clash?
Monty: Mike Tenay, the Alpha Male does what he wants, whenever he wants.
JBL: Can we stop the stupid questions, Tenay?
Tenay: Nonetheless, don’t go anywhere, because coming up next, the World champion, The Rock takes on the International champion, Lance Storm.

Jarrett looks like he wants to do a test of strength battle to start off the match. He proceeds to kick Gunn, but Gunn telegraphs it, stops Jarrett’s foot, spins Jarrett around and gives him a clothesline. Gunn sends Jarrett into the ropes, and flips him over. Gunn picks Jarrett up, sends him into the ropes, but Jarrett grabs the ropes, goes under them, and retreats to the outside.
JBL: Things like that make Jeff Jarrett so smart. He is truly a pleasure to watch.

Jarrett gets out first, and waits for Gunn to get up. Jarrett goes for the Stroke, but Gunn reverses it into a Russian leg sweep.
Tenay: What a counter by Billy Gunn!
JBL: I’ll give Billy Gunn credit for that good veteran-like move, but his leg must be in bad shape from being in the figure four for an extended period of time.
Gunn gets up first, then waits for Jarrett to get up. Jarrett gets up, and Gunn plants him with a DDT. Gunn goes for the cover. 1.…….2...and Jarrett kicks out. Gunn picks Jarrett back up, and goes for the one and only, and hits it.
Tenay: That’s the one and only.
JBL: The what?
Tenay: He calls it the one and only, it’s sort of like a sleeper drop.
Gunn then goes for the cover. 1.……..2.……and Jarrett kicks out again.
JBL: Unbelievable, what will it take to put Jeff Jarrett away?
Tenay: It looks like Billy Gunn is setting up for the fame-ass-er.
Gunn goes for the fame-ass-er, but Jarrett clotheslines him before he can do anything. Jarrett picks Gunn back up, goes for the Stroke, but Gunn elbows Jarrett in the face.

Winner: Jeff Jarrett
Tenay: What a surprise, Jarrett cheats his way to victory.
JBL: Hold on Tenay, you’re sounding like Michael Cole. Billy Gunn tried to use the guitar, and Jarrett seized the moment.
Tenay: Jarrett brought the guitar in the ring in the first place, and you surely know that, JBL.
JBL: Whatever. It looks like Jarrett has something to say.
Jeff Jarrett grabs the microphone.
Jarrett: I have some bad news to all of my fans. It seems as if the King of the Mountain is not getting a title shot at Summer Clash. This is ridiculous and absurd. Eric Bischoff said he told the #1 contender about it, and I didn’t get anything from him about it. I cannot believe this tragedy that is going on. So what I want Eric Bischoff to do, is to come out, and to give me my title match. I….
Goldberg’s music hits and he comes out.
Goldberg: Jeff, I heard you complaining about not getting the title shot. Guess what, I didn’t get it either. Instead of complaining about it, I am going to do something about it. It looks like Rock won’t be next, so, YOU’RE NEXT!
Jarrett: Woah, woah, woah! Calm down there Bill. We know I could take you any day of the week.
They stand face to face. Jarrett slaps Goldberg in the face. Jarrett then smiles and struts around the ring. Jarrett turns around, and Goldberg gives him a spear as the crowd goes crazy. Goldberg signals to the crowd, picks Jarrett back up, and gives him a jackhammer. Goldberg then leaves the ring as the crowd cheers and Jarrett’s hurt.
JBL: That was totally uncalled for!
Tenay: Jarrett was complaining, Goldberg came out, and shut him up. Jarrett smacked Goldberg, so Goldberg retaliated and took Jarrett out. Up next, we will crown a new women’s champion, in battle royal fashion.
Commercial Break
Tenay: Coming up next, our divas will compete in a battle royal. There were eight divas in GPW. Shaniqua, the champion, is injured for an extended period of time and had to give up the women’s title belt. And due to being hit with a title belt earlier tonight, Traci will obviously be unable to compete. So six women will battle it out. The rules of this battle royal are as follows. You can be eliminated by pin fall, submission, or being thrown over the top rope. When it gets down to two divas, you must win by pin fall or submission.
Women’s Title, Battle Royal: Christy Hemme vs. Gail Kim vs. Molly Holly vs. Sable vs. Stacy Keibler vs. Stephanie McMahon
All women start out as far apart from each other as they can. Gail and Molly are the first ones to lock it up. Molly puts Gail in a headlock, and takes her down.

Sable goes for the cover. 1.………2.………….3.
*Stephanie McMahon is eliminated*
Tenay: Stephanie McMahon went on a slapping spree, and got eliminated.
JBL: This shows me how inexperienced Stephanie is. A billion dollar princess shouldn’t be locking it up in the ring. But Stephanie is determined to do this, so being a McMahon, I’d expect her to train very hard and be back better then ever not before long.
Sable show boats for the crowd, and Stacy gives her a spinning heel kick. Stacy goes for the cover. 1.……..2.……..and Sable kicks out right before three. Molly then picks Stacy up, and gives her a back body drop. Molly turns around, and Gail meets her with a hurricanrana from the top rope.

Molly picks Gail up, and gives her a scoop slam. Molly brings Gail near the ropes, who is right by Sable. Molly picks Sable up, and gives her a scoop slam onto Gail.

*Molly Holly is eliminated*
Christy is caught up in the moment, and Stacy grabs her from behind and sends her over the top rope as well.
*Christy Hemme is eliminated*
Tenay: Two divas eliminated right there.
JBL: Crucial mistake by Christy Hemme. There are no friends in battle royals, especially when titles are on the line.
Tenay; Nonetheless, it’s down to Stacy Keibler, Sable, and Gail Kim.
Sable then attacks Stacy from behind. Sable gives Stacy a snap mare, followed by a kick to the back. Gail runs to the ropes and gives Sable a flying head scissors. Gail goes for the cover. 1.……2.……and Sable kicks out. Gail then gets back up. She heads to the top rope, goes for a leg drop, but Sable rolls out of the way. Stacy is the first one up, and she picks Sable up. She brings Sable into the corner. She chokes Sable’s throat in the corner with her boot.

Stacy is crawling towards the ropes, and is about to reach them, but Sable kicks her hands. Stacy is forced to tap out.
*Stacy Keibler is eliminated*
JBL: Smart move by Sable. Get Stacy out of the match, and you have a spot in the final two.
Tenay: One of these ladies, Gail Kim or Sable, will walk out of here as the new women’s champion.
JBL: And to tell you the truth Mike, it could really go either way.
As Gail gets out of the Boston crab submission, Sable comes and rolls her up. 1.………..2.…………and Gail kicks out. Sable then knees Gail in the mid-section, and picks her up, and gives her a suplex. Sable picks Gail up, goes for a TKO, but Gail reverses it into a bulldog, and Gail goes for the cover. 1.………2.………and Sable kicks right out. Gail picks Sable up, and signals for a spinning DDT.

Sable goes for the cover. 1.…………2.…………..3.
Winner and NEW Women’s Champion, Sable
Tenay: Sable wins the women’s title thanks to nearly blinding Gail Kim for a few seconds, and then hitting the Sable Bomb.
JBL: What do you mean blinding Mike? All ladies have sharp nails, Gail had just as big of an advantage as Sable did. That was very smart on Sable’s part.
Tenay: Up next, don’t miss it, Chris Jericho will be hosting the Highlight Reel, and his guest will be The Rock. Will we find out who the #1 contender is for Summer Clash? We’ll find out, next.
Commercial Break
The show comes back on, and Chris Jericho is standing in the ring. Jericho grabs a mic.
Jericho: Welcome Jerichoholics to the Highlight Reel featuring your hero, Y2J, Chris Jericho. First off, let me make an announcement. Right here, next week, all my Jerichoholics will be treated to another Highlight Reel! But that’s next week, this is this week. As for my guest, it really doesn’t get any bigger, because, you know, I’m the host, not a guest. But anyway, he’s the GPW champion. He is The Rock!
The crowd goes crazy as The Rock comes down to the ring. The Rock grabs a mic as the crowd is still buzzing.
Rock: Finally, The Rock, has come back, to St. Louis!
Jericho: Thank you Rock for taking time to appear on the Highlight Reel.
Rock: Oh it’s The Rock’s pleasure. So let me just ask you, are you secretly the #1 contender for The Rock’s world title?
Jericho: I wish I could say it was, but unfortunately it’s not. But I will tell you one thing. I know you were not aware of this, but Eric Bischoff told me to tell you this. I’m glad you’re wearing your wrestling gear plus that shirt of yours, because immediately following the Highlight Reel, you will be taking on Lance Storm in a champions vs. champions match. No titles are on the line, but it’s a huge match.
Rock: That’s fine with The Rock. He came to St. Louis to whoop some candy ass.
Jericho: Well good luck in your match Rock. But I’m dying to know, and I’m sure you are too, Rocky. Let’s find out who your opponent is.
Jericho and Rock both stare at the titantron, and nobody comes out.
Rock: Just what The Rock thought, nobody…..
Monty Brown’s music hits and cuts off The Rock.
Tenay: Monty Brown?
JBL: It is Mike Tenay. It looks like it’s Monty Brown vs. The Rock at Summer Clash.
Monty Brown enters the ring and stares at The Rock.
Rock: Who is this roody poo? Introduce yourself.
Monty: You know who I am, Rock. You just want me to fall for your stupid little kindergarten games so you can tell me that it doesn’t matter what my name is. No, the Alpha Male doesn’t play those games.
Rock: So Eric Bischoff chose you to lose to The Rock at Summer Clash, that’s pretty interesting.
Monty: I won’t be doing any losing, Rock. You come out here, week after week, not shutting up. Now….
Rock: Please Alpha Female, do us all a favor. Know your role, and shut your mouth!
Monty: Very original Rock. If you keep it up, do you know what you will feel?
Rock: Enlighten me Monty Brown, what will The Rock feel?
Monty: You, will feel, the
Rock: It doesn’t matter what The Rock will feel!
Monty: I…..
Rock: Wait, before you say anything. The Rock knows what you are capable of. You have that finishing move that you call the Pounce. Well, The Rock does have some advice for you. You can take that Pounce, mix it in with your red tights, stir it up with your cheetah jacket, shine it all up real nice, turn that son of a bitch sideways, and stick it straight up your candy ass!
Monty looks mad as The Rock continues to talk.
Rock: If ya smmmmmmmmelllllllllllllllllllllll…………what the Rock, is coo
Monty Brown gives Rock a clothesline before he can finish. Jericho gets out of the way not wanting to get involved. Brown grabs a stool and hits Rock on the back with it. He throws that stool out of the ring, grabs another stool, and hits Rock with that too. Brown clears the set to make room. He brings Rock toward the ropes, Irish whips him, Brown runs to the ropes, and Brown gives Rock a Pounce.
Brown: Rock, now that you’re down, you can finally shut up and let the Alpha Male speak. You had to feel it first hand, and Rock, you just felt the PPPPPPPPPPOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNCCCCCCCCCCCCCEEEEEEEEE…………….PERIOD!
Monty Brown drops the mic and heads over to the announce table.
Tenay: Monty Brown just gave The Rock the Pounce!
JBL: The Rock was disrespecting a superstar like Monty Brown, and Rock paid for it.
Tenay: It looks like Monty Brown is joining us for commentary.
Monty Brown grabs a mic set and shakes JBL’s hand, then doesn’t acknowledge Mike Tenay.
JBL: Monty Brown, it is a pleasure to have you here calling the match with us.
Monty: Thank you JBL. And after what I just did, I don’t know if there will be much of a match.
Tenay: Why Monty, did you attack The Rock? Couldn’t it have waited until Summer Clash?
Monty: Mike Tenay, the Alpha Male does what he wants, whenever he wants.
JBL: Can we stop the stupid questions, Tenay?
Tenay: Nonetheless, don’t go anywhere, because coming up next, the World champion, The Rock takes on the International champion, Lance Storm.
