[“Amped” by Grip Inc. plays loudly as the Amped promo rolls. We’re then taken inside the Kansas ExpoCenter in Topeka, Kansas. We pan the insane audience before stopping at the announce table.]

Ross: Hello and welcome everyone to IWA Amped!

Lawler: I can’t wait to get started tonight. Owen is going to win back his title! Wooo!

Heenan: Wooo!

Lawler: Wooo!

Ross: Would you two knock it off?

Heenan: If we must…

Ross: I’m being told we have a camera backstage on Thunder. Let’s take a look for no apparent reason…

Thunder Sees… Orange?

{The scene opens up with a shot of Thunder walking around backstage. He turns a corner and we see a dressing room with the name "Thunder" on it. Thunder digs around in his pocket and finds a key. He sticks the key in the hole and starts wiggling it around.}

Thunder: Damn keys never work… Now I gotta go ask Cole to borrow his set.

{Just then, another figure turns around the corner. He stops when he sees Thunder.}

Thunder: ... WHAT... THE.... @#%$?

{Thunder looks at the man... He appears to be Corey Taylor from Slipknot. He has the mask and the black jumpsuit on.}

The Slipknot Guy: I CAN TEAR YOU APART! I CAN RECOMBINE YOU! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRHHHHHHHH!!!!! AHHHHHH!!!! RAAAAAAH!!! WAIT AND BLEED! WAAAAAAIT AND BLEEEEEEEEEEED! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!

{The Slipknot guy runs at Thunder knocking him over. He takes a package of orange Koolaid out of his pocket, he opens it and pours it on Thunder's face. He then turns around and starts to head back in the direction he came.}

Thunder: Ugh... Ouch... What the... hell…

{We then see The Slipknot Guy return with a canteen in hand. He pours the water on Thunder's face staining it orange. He then takes off his belt and starts whipping him.}

The Slipknot Guy: REVENGE!!!!!! REEEEEEEEEVENGE! NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!!

{The Slipknot Guy then goes into Thunder's dressing room and starts FREAKING out}

The Slipknot Guy: AAHHAHAH! AHHHHHHHHH! DEAD BABIES!!! DEAAAAAAD BABIES!

{He kicks the dressing room door closed on the camera.}

The Slipknot Guy: {From inside the dressing room} DEAAAAAAAAD BABIES!!! DEAD!

Ross: What the hell was that?

What the Devil

King- Let’s get the party started J.R., I’ve been looking forward to this all week. We’ve got Shawn Michaels vs. Mitch Montell and a title match between Terra and Thunder with “Rain’s Rules” in effect. Hey does anyone know what exactly “Rain’s Rules” are?

Heenan- Of course I do, Lawler. King- Well…

Heenan- ….I can’t say.

King- Why the hell not?

Ross- Because he hasn’t got a clue King.

Heenan- What!? Yes I…

Ross- Anyway folks, we’ve also got the nWo here tonight and with them in the house anyth…

[The lights begin to fade and flicker and the arena in filled with the sounds of what seems to be a thunderstorm. The noise grows louder but the announcers’ voices can still be heard…]

Ross- What in the…

King- What is this J.R.? Someone forget to pay the light bill?

Heenan- You doing this Ross?

Ross- Oh yeah Heenan, just let me snap my fingers and make it stop.

[J.R. snaps his fingers in sarcasm and just as suddenly as this all began, the lights fade back to normal and the noise stops.]

Heenan- It was you Ross!

Ross- Whatever Heenan.

King- Looks like a Thunder prank to me.

Ross- I’m not so sure of that King.

King- What do you mean?

Ross- Nothing. Let’s just get on with the show.

Prince H vs. Jeff Hardy

Ross: And out next match features two of IWA's biggest and brightest superstars!

Lawler: That's right, Jeff Hardy against Prince Naseem Hamed, two of the best, and youngest!

Heenan: They're not all that good.

Lawler: Shut up.

Heenan: Make me!

Ross: What are you guys, three years old? Let's just call the match okay?

[Suddenly, we hear the Hardyz theme hit the IWA sound system as none other than Jeff Hardy walks out onto the ramp to a huge ovation from the crowd. Jeff looks around at the crowd, and then smiles as he hears the cheers and clapping from the fans. Jeff then runs down to ringside, slides in the ring and jumps onto one of the corners of the ropes. Jeff puts his arms into the air as the crowd cheers, and does the same thing for the other three corners. His music then fades out and the crowd gets quiet for a few seconds, as everyone waits to see what's going on.]

Ross: There's Jeff, we're sure he's ready to go tonight.

Heenan: Yeah, he's one of IWA's most entertaining superstars, I love watching that guy! I really do!

Lawler: Are you gay?

Heenan: Shut up!

[Suddenly, we hear "South Saturn Delta" by Jimi Hendrix as the crowd begins booing and yelling some quite vulgar words at the ramp. A few seconds later, none other than Prince Naseem Hamed, "The Iraqi Warrior" walks out onto the ramp with a full black Arabic robe with a black turban. Prince looks around and begins yelling back at the crowd as he makes his way to ringside.]

Ross: Well there's Prince!

Heenan: I'm surprised he's not with his little friends…

[Suddenly, Emmitt runs out from the back and walks next to Prince on the way down the ramp]

Heenan: Well I'll be damned!

Lawler: Why don't you just shut up?

[Prince, who is now in the ring, looks at Jeff, then both men begin going at it as the music fades out and the bells ring to indicate the beginning of the match. Prince finally gets turned around but instantly drops to one knee. Jeff punches the downed Prince in the face a few times. Prince falls back, leaning against the bottom turnbuckle. Jeff pulls Prince to his feet by the head. He boots him in the gut and grabs him in a DDT position. He yells out, signaling for the Twist of Fate. Emmitt jumps up on the apron and screams at Jeff. Jeff lets go of Prince and nails Emmitt in the face with a hard right. Emmitt tumbles down off the apron to the floor. The crowd lets out a deafening cheer. Jeff turns back to Prince but is poked in the eye out of desperation. The ref turns back to the action after momentarily checking on Emmitt. Prince grabs Jeff and executes a quick short-arm clothesline. Both
men hit the mat and remain there for a moment.]

Ross: It was almost over just like that. I got to pick Jeff to win this one.

King: Are you an idiot, Ross?

[Both men are finally back to their feet. They lock up for the first time. Jeff backs Prince into the ropes, and both men go at it for a bit until we see Emmitt walking over towards the ring announcers. Emmitt grabs a chair, but the referee spots him and leans over the ropes, turning his back to the match. Suddenly, Primetime Sanders is seen running from the ramp and full speed towards the ring, holding a 2-foot metal pole in his right hand. Jeff, occupied with Prince, doesn't notice anything. Primetime hops into the ring, then grabs Jeff and slams him in the head. Jeff, bleeding instantly, drops to the mat and holds his head in pain. Primetime and Prince, working together, pick Jeff up as Prince holds him, and Primetime aims right for the head and connects once again. Jeff, unconscious, drops to the mat as Primetime slides out of the ring and runs to where Emmitt is standing and still distracting the referee. Emmitt sees that Jeff is down, and throws the chair down. The referee, pleased that Emmitt put the chair down, turns around to find Prince covering Jeff. The referee then counts the 1..2..3..]

Ross: What a cheap win!

Heenan: Wow, Primetime and Emmitt really helped Prince out there.

Lawler: That's what I call teamwork!

Ross: That's sick! Jeff should have won!

Winner: Prince H

It's coming...

“Magnificent” Mitch Montell vs. Shawn Michaels
Non-Title Match

Ross: Well folks next we have another great matchup, Mitch Montell against Shawn Michaels!

Heenan: This should be a great match.

Lawler: Shawn will win it by a mile; he's got too much experience for Mitch.

Ross: You may be right Jerry, but Mitch Montell has shown that he can compete with the big boys in IWA.

Heenan: Will you two stop your bickering, the match is about to start!

[Suddenly, "Broiler" hits the IWA sound system as Mitch Montell walks out onto the ramp, wearing his TV Title around his left shoulder. The crowd gives a good pop for Mitch. Mitch looks around, then smiles and makes his way towards the ring. Mitch hops into the ring, then looks around at the crowd as his music continues to play. Mitch then spots the referee outside of the ring, yelling something to Mitch. Mitch leans over the ropes, then hears what the referee has to say, then hands him the TV title. Mitch then begins bouncing off the ropes, getting warmed up for the match at hand. Mitch's music then fades slowly until there's only the sound of the cheering crowd.]

Ross: Well, our Television champion sure looks ready to prove himself against a former World Champion doesn't he?

Heenan: Yeah he looks ready, but if I know Shawn Michaels, which I do, he'll be ready as well, and we all know what Shawn can do when he's ready to go!

Lawler: Yeah, Shawn kicks ass when he's warmed up and ready! This will be a blowout! Hahaha!

[Jerry starts laughing as the lights go out and "Sexy Boy/You Rock My World" remix by the one, the only, Mr. Michael Jackson hits the IWA sound system as the crowd cheers. The crowd continues cheering for a few seconds, then spots Shawn Michaels coming out of the top of the ramp. Shawn looks around at the crowd, who cheers more when they see that Shawn is looking at them. Shawn stops, then smiles as he hears the cheers, then focuses his attention towards the ring, where he spots Mitch bouncing off the ropes, still getting warmed up for the match. Shawn laughs, then makes his way towards the ring. Shawn gets to the bottom of the ramp, then slides in quickly and stands up in the ring. Shawn acts like he's going to look at the crowd and do a few signature moves, but instead he walks over to Mitch, taps him on the shoulder, then slams him with a huge right hand as the bell sounds to start the match]

Ross: Wow, Shawn isn't wasting any time here!

Heenan: I told you he'd be ready to kick some ass!

[Shawn, who has Mitch on the ground, begins slamming him with huge kicks and hits. Mitch cries out in pain a bit as he gets hit again and again, then after a minute or so Shawn lets up and decides his next maneuver. Mitch then gets up, but Shawn runs at him and hits him with a huge clothesline, sending Mitch right back to the mat. Shawn then picks Mitch up, hits him with right hands a few times and swings him off the ropes. Mitch hits the ropes and comes back towards Shawn, and Shawn tries a roundhouse kick, but Mitch stops, grabs Shawn's leg, and throws him to the ground. The Mitch supporters in the crowd begin cheering as they see Mitch taking control of the match.]

Ross: Nice move by Mitch.

Lawler: Ah he got lucky!

[Mitch then kicks Shawn's body a few times with the right leg, then picks Shawn up and gives him a knee to the stomach. Shawn grabs his stomach and hunches over in pain as Mitch takes a step back and kicks him in the face. Shawn drops back to the mat as Mitch laughs, then walks over to the corner of the ring. Mitch begins climbing up on the ropes, and then turns around, once again facing the ring. He sees Shawn trying to get up off the mat, and jumps towards Shawn, hitting him in the head hard with his elbow. Shawn drops back down to the mat, this time holding his head. Mitch gets up and laughs once again, then picks up Shawn and executes a leg lock, causing Shawn to clutch his hands in pain. Shawn then reaches for the ropes, and after a few seconds, he gets them and Mitch is forced to break the hold]

Ross: Wow, that was close!

Heenan: No it wasn't, Shawn knows what he's doing.

Lawler: Wow, for once, I agree with you Heenan!

Ross: Will you two watch the match?!

[We now see Shawn, who is getting a second wind, standing up. Shawn looks for Mitch, who is still getting up, then runs at him and begins slamming him with right hands to the face, pushing Mitch backward. Mitch goes all the way back to the ropes, still getting hit by Shawn in the face. Shawn begins yelling something as he hits Mitch, but the ropes push Mitch right back. Shawn then grabs Mitch, walks towards the center of the ring, and hits a backbreaker type maneuver on Mitch. Mitch drops to Shawn's knee, then the mat as Shawn looks at the crowd as he picks Mitch up again, then swings him off the ropes. Shawn swings off the other side of the ropes, trying to get some momentum as he runs towards Mitch and successfully hits the Sweet Chin Music. Mitch drops to the floor as Shawn goes for the pin, and gets the 1, 2, 3!]

Lawler: Told you!

Heenan: Yeah Ross, told you!

Ross: I never said Shawn would lose!

Heenan: Whatever! Ross: But, what a match that was 'eh?

Winner: Shawn Michaels

The Strange Occurrences Continue

Ross- What a match, huh King?

King- Sure kept me entertained.

Heenan- Eh, I guess it was alright. Now if it was Owen Hart in the ring…

[The lights begin to flicker and fade out as they did before. The sounds of a thunderstorm once again fill the arena, this time louder than before.]

King- Not again.

Heenan- Do something J.R.

Ross- Like what Heenan?

Heenan- I don’t know. You made it stop last time.

Ross- Oh give me a break. We’re sorry for this folks, we’ll have some one get…

[Suddenly the lights return to normal and the noise fades out again.]

Ross- …right on…well never mind then.

King- Who’s doing this anyway?

Ross- Do you actually think I know King?

King- Well maybe…

Heenan- I know.

Ross & King- Shut up Heenan.

Heenan- Ok ok.

The Challenge is Answered

[We cut backstage to Thunder and Vinny’s dressing room door. Michael Cole stands by with a microphone in hand.]

Cole: I’m here to get a few words with Thunder and Vinny about the challenge they received last week from Shawn Michaels and Owen Hart.

[Cole knocks on the dressing room door. He waits for a minute but no one answers. He sighs and pulls out a key ring with about a million keys on it. He finds the right one and opens the door. The room is completely dark. He flips on the light and finds Gwen hiding behind a tall lamp and Vinny completely concealed under a blanket on the couch. He throws the covers away and sits up.]

Vinny: Damnit, get atta heh.

Cole: I just need a quick answer. Are you and Thunder accepting Owen and Shawn’s challenge to a tag team match?

Vinny: Thunda and I tolked it ova and it’s a no. But we want Owen and Double H in a tag team match!

Cole: Wow! Where is Thunder anyway?

Vinny: In da wash room.

[We pan to see a connecting shower room. The door swings open and we see Thunder standing on the other side with an orange stained face. He glares at Cole.]

Thunder: We don’t have any problems with HBK. If we’re going to do this we’re going to kill two birds with one stone. We want Double H and Owen in there at the same time and we’re going to end this NEXT WEEK! Got it, Cole?

Cole: Yes.

Thunder: Now GET OUT!

[Cole leaves the dressing room in a hurry.]

It's coming...

Owen Hart vs. Bazooka
Nation-Wide Title Street Fight

Brian: It’s time for our first of two GREAT title matches scheduled for tonight. In a rematch from a few weeks ago, we’ll see Owen Hart take on Bazooka with the Nation-Wide title on the line.

Lawler: And you know who’s going to win it.

Ross: Yes, and I’d like to say congratulations ahead of time to Bazooka for his win tonight.

Lawler: No, you fool! Owen’s going to win!

Ross: How did I know you were going to say that?

Fink: Introducing first, weighing in at 310 pounds, he’s the current IWA Nation-Wide AND Hardcore Champion… Bazooka!

[“In the End” hits in the arena. Bazooka steps out onto the stage with his titles draped over his shoulders. He walks down the ramp and checks out one of the several trash cans full of goodies that surround the ring. Finally, he climbs in.]

Fink: And his opponent, weighing in at 245 pounds, Owen Hart!

[“Enough is Enough” hits in the arena. The fans cheer wildly as Owen steps out onto the stage. He points a finger at Bazooka then starts toward the ring. Owen climbs the steps and enters through the ropes. The bell rings and the two begin to circle each other.]

Brain: It’s robot fightin’ time.

Ross: What?

Brain: Sorry, wrong show.

[They lock up at center ring and lean hard into one another. It doesn’t take Bazooka long to back Owen into a corner. The ref tries to get between the two and does. For the first time in the history of wrestling, there’s a clean break. The two circle each other once more before locking up. Owen lifts a knee directly to the gut of Bazooka. Bazooka doubles over and turns away. Owen grabs him by the hair and perfectly executes a face slam. He then rolls outside the ring and dumps out the contents of one of the trash cans. He picks up a hockey stick and rolls back in the ring with it. He gets a running start then swings the hockey stick upward as if attempting to hit a puck and hits Bazooka in the chest.]
Brain: Oh! High sticking! That’s two minutes in the box.

Ross: How did I know a hockey reference was on its way?

[Bazooka jumps around in pain while Owen positions himself. When ready, Owen jumps on Bazooka’s back and pulls the hockey stick against his throat to strangle him. Bazooka stumbles around the ring before dropping to a knee. Before long, Bazooka drops to all fours. Owen lets go of the strangle hold and breaks the hockey stick over Bazooka’s back. Owen rolls to the outside to grab another weapon. He kicks over another trash can and rummages through the pile looking for something particular. Owen finally finds it… a foot or two of barbed wire. Owen wraps it around his boot and rolls back in the ring. Owen walks up to a downed Bazooka and smiles. He then stomps the barbed wire on his boot into the lower back of Bazooka. Bazooka rolls around in a great amount of pain. He gets to the outside and clutches his back which is now bleeding.]

Lawler: Oh my God! That’s was brutal!

Ross: Come on! Come on! Don’t do that!

[Owen rolls to the outside and pursues Bazooka. Bazooka grabs a trash can and clocks Owen over the head with it out of desperation. Owen stumbles backward but shakes it off and continues after Bazooka. Bazooka makes it a few more feet away. When Owen gets close enough, Bazooka grabs a chair and busts Owen over the head with it. He goes for the win on the outside. …1 …2 …Kickout! Bazooka gets up and grabs another trash can. He pours it onto the floor and grabs a chain from inside. He wraps it around his fist and kneels by Owen. He grabs him by the hair and hammers away at Owen with the chain. Bazooka then stands and takes the chain off his hand. He begins whipping Owen with it. Owen rolls around trying to get away. Bazooka drops the chain and grabs a fire extinguisher. He raises it over his head to bash Owen with it but Owen kicks Bazooka in the groin in desperation. Bazooka drops the fire extinguisher behind him and doubles over.]

Ross: This is BRUTAL!

Brain: No! Stop hurting Owen! Damn you!

Lawler: Owen’s busted open!

[Owen climbs to his feet and wipes blood away from his nose. He grabs Bazooka by the head and DDTs him to the floor. Owen gets up and rips away some of the padding exposing the concrete arena floor. He grabs Bazooka and pulls him to his feet. They take a walk over to the exposed floor. Owen sets him up for a suplex onto the concrete. He attempts it but Bazooka blocks. Owen tries again but is blocked once more. Bazooka pushes him away and goes for a big boot. Owen ducks it and comes back up behind Bazooka. He grabs Bazooka in a waist lock and throws him face first to the concrete with a traditional takedown. Owen gets to his feet and grabs a trash can. He picks Bazooka up and places the trash can over his head. Owen backs up and runs at Bazooka. He nails him with a spinning heel kick, collapsing the trash can around Bazooka’s head. Owen slides it off then rolls in the ring and climbs to the top rope. He removes his elbow pad and gives a loud “Woooo!” The crowd responds with the same “Woooo!”]

Brain: Here it comes! The Owen Elbow Drop!

Lawler: It’s over for Bazooka! New champ! New champ!

[Owen leaps and hits the elbow drop to perfection. …1 …2 …3!]

Fink: Your winner and NEW Champion… Owen Hart!

[Owen stands groggily and takes his title. He glances at it then throws it over his shoulder. He has to do a double take though because it’s the Hardcore title. Owen turns to the referee and begins questioning him. Owen follows him into the ring screaming things at him. Bazooka hops into the ring and spins Owen around. He boots him in the gut and takes him down with an inverted piledriver. The ref counts …1 …2 …3!]

Fink: Your winner and STILL Champion… Bazooka!

[“In the End” hits in the arena and Bazooka leaves with his Nation-Wide title.]

Winner: Owen Hart [New Hardcore Champion], Bazooka [Still Nation-Wide Champion]

Thunder (c) vs. Terra
World Title Rain’s Rules Match

JR: This is it folks...the match we've ALL been waiting for!!

King: YES! This is the MAIN EVENT!!

Heenen: *sighs* Its my turn next week, right?

JR: Stop it! What a bunch-a loons I get to work with...

["Fire in the Hole"'s OCnWo remix blasts into the arena, and the fans get to their feet. Mr. Trent swaggers out onto the stage, straightens his tie, and points, Outsyder/OC style towards the curtain. The Terra bursts from the back and embraces all of the cheers that come from the crowd. The two men saunter down to the ring and step inside. Terra raises his arms to the crowd, and they respond with another round of praise.]

JR: There's the man that can take the world title home tonight!!

Heenen: We'll hafta see..Thunder is one tough dude.

["Welcome to the Jungle" pours over the PA system and as the primal scream hits, a grungy Thunder walks to the top of the stage. As the lyrics start, he raises his arms in the crucifix to a round of boos from the crowd. He shrugs the fans off and makes his way to the ring. He walks around the ring, and grabs a chair. He slides it into the ring before climbing in himself. He gets to the turnbuckles and gives the crucifix once again. The fans shout obscenities and profanity at him as he stands tall. He smirks and slumps into the corner, sitting on the mat. The camera switches to Terra as the music dies away]

Fink - Ladies and Gentlemen, this match is for the IWA title, and will be held under Rain's Rules!

Fink - Introducing the challenger, He comes from Edmonton, Alberta Canada...he stands 6'5, and weighs in at 256 pounds...he is accompanied by MR. TRENT...this...IS...TERRA!!

[The fans break out into a Terra chant, as the camera switches to Thunder. The camera zooms in and out, from close up to full body shot rapidly, as if to mirror the "TER-RAH" chants. Thunder just looks around, and spits across the ring at Terra.]

Fink - Aaaaaannndd your champion..he hails from Boston, MA, and stands 6'2. He tips the scales at 260 pounds, and he is the master of the Shockwave...this is the IWA Champion...he is...THUNDER!!

[The bell rings and Thunder gets to his knees. He slides the chair in Terra's direction. Thunder dares Terra to hit him, Terra picks up the chair and looks hesitant. Thunder grabs the mic from Fink's hand before Fink leaves the ring.]

Thunder - C'mawn bitch...hit me..take the first shot! You're such a man..c'mawn..hit me...hit me..HIT ME!!

[Terra obliges, and blasts Thunder in the face with the chair. Thunder is shot back into the corner, and Terra takes the opportunity to hit a picture perfect-Foley-esque knee to the jaw of Thunder. Terra backs out of the corner, and gets a pop from the crowd. Thunder shakes out the cobwebs, and gets to his feet. Terra turns and is met with a few rights and lefts. Terra guts Thunder and whips him. Terra lowers his head, and Thunder grabs Terra and dumps him on the mat. After a knee to the throat, Thunder stomps repeatedly on Terra. Terra rolls to the ropes and Thunder is forced to back off. Terra gets to his feet, coughing from the onslaught. Thunder grabs the mic again.]

JR - What’s up with this?!

Thunder - Aw Terra...I told you, you're a nothing! A nobody! Catch your breath..be the man you know you can be...c'mon...c'mon..get up..get up!!

Heenen: MIND GAMES! Its Psychological warfare!!

[Thunder belts Terra in the gut with the mic, doubling him over. Thunder strikes Terra with a shot to the gut that forces Terra to the outside! Thunder laughs, drops the mic and follows Terra to the outside. Terra jabs Thunder in the throat, and then whips him into the steel steps! Terra grabs Thunder and smashes him into the steps and the steel pole. Thunder staggers to the announce table, where Terra drives Thunder's head into the corner of the table!! Thunder's forehead is busted open! The blood begins to flow as Terra continues to battle with Thunder on the outside. Thunder reverses an Irish whip attempt, and sends Terra flying into the guardrail. Terra hits hard. Terra and Thunder take a moment to assess their damage. Terra shakes off his pain and charges Thunder. Thunder back body drops Terra over him, which sends Terra flying to the padded concrete. Unfortunately, Terra's leg smashes against the steel steps, which were dislodged when Thunder hit them earlier! Terra writhes in pain.]

JR: OH MY GOD!!!

Lawler: Did you see that?!?!

Heenen: What a technician Thunder is!! That was PURE brilliance!

[Thunder grabs a steel chair and begins to wail away on the ankle and leg of Terra. With the added impact of the steel steps, Terra is going nuts from the pain. Thunder finally, mercifully ends the blows. He goes underneath the ring and pulls a table. The table is tossed into the ring, followed by Terra. Thunder gets back into the ring, and delivers a fisherman's suplex, into a pinning combination! One..Two..kickout! Terra kicked out! Thunder nods with satisfaction, and picks Terra up. Terra, on a weak ankle, bashes Thunder with a forearm shot, and follows it up with right hands! Terra is coming back!! And as an exclamation point, Terra wallops Thunder with a HUGE clothesline! Terra begins to set up the table, but only gets halfway finished, before Thunder nails him in his weak ankle. Thunder stomps away on the ankle, before the ref pushes him away. Thunder grabs the mic and once again, tries to get inside Terra's head.]

Thunder - AWWW, POOOR Terra! Your ankle hurt?!

[Thunder stomps on Terra's ankle.]

Thunder - Is it broken?!

[Another stomp]

Thunder - Sprained!? COME ON! FIGHT ME LOSER!

[Thunder raises his leg to deliver a punishing kick, but Terra snaps his good leg right into Thunder's crotch!!! Thunder screams in agony, which is amplified by the mic throughout the arena. Thunder drops to the mat from the pain and Terra drags himself to his feet. He finishes setting up the table and grabs Thunder, who is still on the ground. Terra lifts Thunder in the air, and delivers a SICK brain buster through the table! Thunder hits the table with his shoulders, and his entire body compresses down on his lower neck/shoulders! Terra rolls Thunder out of the table debris and covers him. Vinny and Gwen dash to the ring, but the OC is right behind them!]

JR: Aw great...HEY REF!! Thunder's COVERED!!

[Vinny and Gwen pound the canvas, encouraging Thunder, as the Double H, Hall and Nash keep them at bay. The ref sees the cover and begins to count...1...2..NOOO!! Thunder kicks out!!]

Lawler: HAH! What do you think of that Ross!?

[Terra looks incredulous...he cannot believe it!! The ring is cleared of the table, and Thunder staggers to his feet. Terra grabs the chair and limps towards Thunder. Thunder, through bloody eyes, sees Terra coming and boots the chair into Terra's face! Thunder sits up the chair near the ropes, and shoves Terra's head in the back of the chair so Terra's face is on the seat of the chair. Thunder wipes some blood out of his eyes and goes to the outside. Thunder planchas over the rope, into the ring and looks to hit a leg drop Terra's face into the chair....but Terra moves.]

Heenen: DDOooooooooyyyeeeee! Thats gotta hurt!!

[The OC boys go wild for their compadre. Terra shoves the chair away, and motions for Thunder to get up. Thunder does. Superkick!! Its the STILETTO! Thunder goes down in a heap!!]

Ross: TERRA GOT IT! HE's got him!! He's GOT HIM!! HE's--

[With each "He's got him" the ref counts One...TWO...THREE--THE LIGHTS GO OUT! THE ARENA IS IN COMPLETE DARKNESS!!!]

Lawler: AAAHHHHHH!!!

Heenen: Don't grab my leg!!

Ross: Terra’s done it! He’s won the World title!

[The crowd is going into a frenzy..no one can see a thing...suddenly a LOUD..LOUD LOUD Thunderclap busts over the PA system!!]

JR: Ooooooooooh S#!@!!!!

[Another thunder rumble and the crowd bursts with anticipation! The fans have totally lost it and are going BALLISTIC! A lightning bolt, from somewhere over the Jumbo Tron fires across the ceiling, and hits one of the rafters. At that moment, a spotlight appears on the rafter, revealing, once again, the man that we've been seeing all night long! "Crawling " by Linkin Park pours over the PA system, and the fans grow even louder than before!!!]

[The figure begins to rappel to the ring! He spreads his arms wide and lands inside the ring. The figure is wearing black jeans and a hooded sweatshirt, with a long, flowing trench coat. The lights come up to a blue haze. Terra looks at the man, utterly stunned. He stands and tries to figure out who in the blue hell that is. Thunder gets up, swivels Terra around and PLANTS him with the EVENFLOW! The figure unhooks from his rappel line, as Vinny hops into the ring. Vinny and the unknown man stand guard against the OcnWo. The music is still blaring in the background as the referee calls for the bell. Thunder slips into the corner. Thunder sees the OC and goes to laugh in their faces. Double H begins swearing at Thunder, as Thunder grabs a steel chair. Thunder invites Double H into the ring, but Verona and Wolvesbane pull HH away. The man in the ring still has not moved.]

JR: What the hell is this?! Who is that!?

[Thunder rolls out of the ring, with Vinny. Thunder hugs Gwen, and lifts her over the guardrail. Then he and Vinny also climb over the guardrail, and move off into the crowd. Terra is still in the ring, and finally comes around. He gets to his feet, shakes out the cobwebs and stares at the figure that rappelled to the ring. Terra starts mouthing off to the hooded, trench coated figure. Terra stomps the ground, in anger and shoves the man. He begins to exit the ring, but the man stops him and belts him in the mouth!!! Terra ducks out of the ring, and the figure stands tall. He lowers his head, and grasps his hood in hand. He throws his head up, and his hood of revealing the figure to be....RRRRRRAAAAAIIIIINNNNNNNNN!!!!!]

Heenen: HEEEEEEE'SSSSS BBBBAAAACCCKKK!!!!!!!

[Terra stares in complete shock. The crowd goes even more nuts, and immediately starts a "WEL-COME BACK! WEL-COME BACK WEL-COME BACK WEL-COME BACK!" chant. Terra sprints back to the ring and gets in Rain's face, irate over messing up his long awaited title victory. Rain just smirks and opens his trench coat. Hanging off of Rain's belt is...a sledgehammer! Rain unhooks the sledge and approaches Terra. Terra stands tall, and Rain raises the weapon underneath Terra's throat. Terra looks a bit worried at what Rain is going to do...Rain snaps the sledge directly into Terra's jaw, snapping Terra's head back. Terra rolls out of the ring, clutching his face. The camera zooms on Rain who is in the crucifix position! The crowd boos heavily at Rain, but he doesn't seem to hear them. Suddenly, a flash of lightning and a thunderclap later, the man they call Rain is gone!]

JR: What the HELL!!

Winner: Terra [New World Champion]

Welcome Home

[The scene switches to the parking lot. A bloody Thunder is sitting on the hood of a limo. Vinny and Gwen are standing near by, breathing hard, escaping the OC, and then doubling back to get to their car. Thunder looks at Vinny, and then at Gwen and realizes neither of the two, nor he, has Thunder's World Title.]

Thunder - Hey...where's my belt?! What about me?! Sure, you can save your own hides, but you can't remember my friggin belt?! WHAT ABOUT ME?!

Vinny: But Thunda… Ya loo-wust the-

[Vinny is cut off by the sound of someone clearing their throat. Thunder looks up to see the black hooded figure, Rain, step into the shot. Thunder leans back agianst the limo and looks over Rain. Rain drapes the world title at Thunder's feet, and stares at Thunder. Thunder leans forward to pick up the title. He comments:]

Thunder - Impressive...

Rain - Thanks...So, does this mean I'm in?

Thunder - (nodding slowly)...Guess So...

[Thunder wipes a spot of blood away from his eyes, and slips off the limo. He stands toe to toe with Rain. He begins to nod.]

Rain - Good!

Thunder - Amen...

[The two men re-unite with a manly embrace as they both break into grins. Vinny and Gwen join the embrace. Finally the embrace breaks and the four get into the limo. The limo drives off as the copyright info appears on the screen, and the scene fades to black.]
