[i]Gasolina[/i] by Daddy Yankee ft. Lil' Jon and Pitbull plays and Colombian Heat makes his way to the ring. COLE Well, Colombian Heat was unsuccessful in his attempt to win the 24/7 title earlier tonight, but a chance at redemption and a World title shot await him in this match, perhaps. Heat slides into the ring and begins to hammer away at TK. Reject comes over and helps out his partner, and the two give Heat a double clothesline. TK sets Reject up for the suplex-headscissor move...but Reject SWERVES~! TK, picking him up in the suplex instead and dropping him to the floor! COLE Wait a minute! COACH I love it, Cole! Reject outsmarted his own partner! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 5th elimination: Thunderkid Entered: #1 Time of participation: 18:34 Eliminated: Jumbo (co), Nick Garner (co) Eliminated by: Reject Left in ring: Reject, Dan Black, Scotty Static, The Parka, Jamie O'Hara, Colombian Heat ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ As TK and Reject argue with one another, Scotty Static slugs it out with Colombian Heat. Static goes for a powerbomb, but Heat slides out ala Kidman. Static reverses a whip, but Heat ducks a clothesline and then takes Static down with a flying headscissors! COACH The dissention continues, Cole! COLE And some fast and furious action between Colombian Heat and Scotty Static on the inside! As Heat celebrates, however, Dan Black comes out of the corner and nails him with a superkick! Jamie O'Hara goes after Reject, getting somes kicks in to the midsection. Reject fires back, and eventually takes O'Hara down with a dropkick. Black has Heat up on the ropes for elimination! Heat struggles and manages to slide down the back of Black, then attempts to eliminate *him* as Static comes over to give him a hand. However, Parka breaks up the attempt by ramming together the heads of Heat and Scotty. Parka works over Static, but O'Hara comes over to help out his fellow Upstart. Black and Reject work together, delivering a double suplex to Heat! Parka hits a double clothesline on Static and O'Hara as the count begins... 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [i]Know Your Role '99[/i] hits and boos quickly fill the arena as Tha Puerto Rican strides through the curtain. He looks over to Axel and the briefcase as well, partly in anger because of what they did to SJ and partly because he wants the money but neither man acknowledges him. COACH HERE WE GO BABY! CABOOSE PR's been 24/7 champ for a good stretch, but I know that he wants to finally go to the next level and win this thing. PR jogs to the ring and goes straight after the weakened Colombian Heat, hitting a Samoan drop and applauding himself as the crowd boos some more. COACH Yeah, that was great, PR! PR then joins Jamie O'Hara in working over Parka, and they set him up in the corner, each man grabbing a leg and attempting to send him over the top! COLE Parka in big trouble right now at the hands of PR and Jamie O'Hara! CABOOSE See ya. Heat takes down Static with a big dropkick, then makes the save for Parka and begins brawling it out with Jamie O'Hara. PR ducks a clothesline from Parka, and hits him with a Latin Slam! PR then sneaks behind Dan Black and gives him a low blow, then sets up the CORPORATE TRIFECTA~! COACH Here it comes, Cole! CABOOSE I love this move. PR with a vertical suplex! He rolls over, and hits a second! He then raises Black up for a third, doing the "you can't see me" gesture, then slingshots him off the ropes and completes the move! PR applauds himself afterwards. Reject dropkicks PR right in the face as he sits on the mat! COACH Oh, no! COLE Well, Reject not impressed with that, obviously, as he goes to work on the 24/7 champion! Reject hits a snap suplex on PR, then sets up the PITCH BLACK~!!!, but Jamie O'Hara comes flying across the ring and hits a BLOCKBUSTER~! on Reject! COLE Nice hangtime by O'Hara on that one! Static and O'Hara go to work on Reject, as PR and Heat slug it out in the corner. Heat gets the better of the exchange (which doesn't work like before, since PR isn't a member of the GPX, see), until PR goes to the throat and brings him out of the corner with a bulldog! COLE And we're set for lucky 13, Coach! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [i]Breathe[/i] by Fabolous hits and the Mad Cappa makes a mad dash (LOLZ) to the ring, hearing the cheers of the fans. COLE And it's Cappa! Cappa slides in, ducks a clothesline from O'Hara and nails a spinning wheel kick! Static attacks him from behind, but Cappa counters an Irish whip and boots Static in the gut, hitting him with the CAPPABOMB~! As Cappa looks up from the position, everyone else is down and out of it, except for PR, who is staring him down from an opposite corner! COACH Look at the staredown here, Cole! COLE And the fans notice it too, Coach, listen to them get loud! CABOOSE They better not forget about the other guys in the ring though. One mistake could be the end of your night. Cappa gets up and gets face-to-face with PR, which only serves to excite the crowd even more! PR shoves Cappa back, to receive a shove in return! PR throws the first punch, and the two are trading blows in the center of the ring! Cappa gets the better of the exchange, and sends PR into the ropes, but puts his head down. PR gives him a foot to the face, then sets him up for the CORPORATE NIGHTMARE~!!!!!11111 Cappa, however, backdrops out of it, and as PR approaches him again, Cappa hits BUST A CAP~!!!!!11111 COLE Cappa hit it! BUST A CAP! Cappa grabs PR and tosses him over the top, but PR barely hangs on, and skins the cat back into the ring! Cappa starts to grab Reject, but PR turns him around and delivers the CORPORATE NIGHTMARE~!!!!!11111 COACH But PR comes right back, Cole, I love it! As both Cappa and PR are out in the ring, Reject gets up and hits a snap legdrop on PR! Static then picks up Heat and gives him a snap suplex, then hops to the second rope, climbs backwards to the top rope, and drops a leg! Cappa recovers and grabs PR again, attempting elimination as the count starts... 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The fans hear the sound of a cash register opening up. It is followed by Vitamin X saying "Come and take your Vitamin X." COACH Oh, yeah, here comes some help for PR! [i]Bling Bling[/i] hits and VX very quickly runs down and slides into the ring, making the save on PR and lays in some kicks on Cappa. PR and VX set up Cappa, picking him up in vertical suplex position and dropping him down forwards on his stomach! VX then starts dancing around... COACH Uh oh, Cole! VX is feeling it! As Cappa gets to his feet, VX hits a right! then a second right! VX does the Shane 'O Mac Shuffle, then hits another big punch on Cappa, sending him to the mat! VX then goes over and attacks Parka, who has Jamie O'Hara on the brink of elimination! COLE A lot of history as well between VX and The Parka, Coach! VX and O'Hara attempt to dump Parka over the top backwards, but Dan Black nails VX and Parka is able to scoot back in. Black hits a back suplex on VX as Reject picks his spots, and hits a BIG kick to the kidneys of PR! COACH Oh man, what a kick from Reject right there! COLE And we should point out, Reject was the third entrant into this match, in about a minute we're going to be halfway through the entrants! Reject then pulls VX off the mat and gives him a suplex. COACH And right here you got the guy that's been in the longest of anyone battling it out with the guy who's the freshest! COLE Gotta give some credit as well to Dan Black and to Scotty Static, they're both close to the 20-minute mark themselves! CABOOSE Having been in this match before, I know that those men must be feeling the fatigue, but they can't stop or let down their guard because, as more fresh men enter, they will go right for the ones that are weak. Reject is smart picking his spots like he is right now. Static and Black are doing battle in a corner, as Black presses his knee right into the face of Scotty. O'Hara comes over and rakes the eyes of Black, then delivers a back suplex. Cappa and Heat both approach O'Hara, and deliver a double atomic drop! Black dumps Scotty, who once again lands on the apron! COACH Look at Scotty continue to hang in there! PR delivers a low blow to Cappa as the count begins again. COLE Folks, we're at the halfway point of the Lethal Rumble match! #15 about to make his way through the curtains! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [i]Punishment[/i] by BIOHAZARD hits and Rick Heyross comes through the curtain, waving Quentin Benjamin towards the ring and following behind. COLE And it's Quentin Benjamin, one half of Team Heyross and one *third* of the 6-man tag champs! CABOOSE We've seen how he does in a team, but how he will fare alone with no help remains to be seen here. Benjamin slides into the ring only to get met with big forearm shots from Colombian Heat! Meanwhile, Cappa is on the receiving end of a CURBSTOMP~! from Jamie O'Hara! COACH CURBSTOMP~! Bnejamin is hit with a big clothesline from Heat, and set up for elimination at the ropes! COLE And Quentin Benjamin already in trouble, Coach! CABOOSE I guess not well then. However, Reject of all people makes the save! COACH How about that save, Cole? COLE And how about this double team? Benjamin and Reject both hammer on Heat, then whip him into the ropes, and hit him with a double back elbow, sending him backwards over the top and to the floor! COLE And how about the elimination? What a surprising turn of events that was, and Colombian Heat is headed for the showers! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 6th elimination: Colombian Heat Entered: #11 Time of participation: 8:27 Eliminated: None Eliminated by: Reject, Quentin Benjamin Left in ring: Reject, Dan Black, Scotty Static, The Parka, Jamie O'Hara, Tha Puerto Rican, The Mad Cappa, Vitamin X, Quentin Benjamin ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COLE So we're back down to nine men in there now. COACH Could be eight right here, Cole! Jamie O'Hara in trouble! Reject has O'Hara hanging precariously, but O'Hara manages to slide back in under the bottom. Benjamin kicks away at an exhausted Dan Black on the mat. COLE There's another tag team showdown right there, Coach, Black T vs Team Heyross! COACH That's right, and one member of each team still to come yet, as WELL as Brock Ausstin, the third member of the 6-man tag champs! Benjamin picks up Black and hangs him over the ropes, as Scotty Static comes over to help. PR kneels down and reaches through the ropes, pulling on the head of Black. COLE Three guys now trying to get Dan Black out of there, but no! He STILL slides back in through the ropes! CABOOSE Black is a slippery bugger. I'm picking him as my dark horse in this one. Parka grabs PR and delivers a fisherman's buster! Cappa delivers knees in the corner to Scotty Static, before VX rakes his eyes and delivers a snap suplex! VX then climbs the top rope right above Scotty, and leaps off, hitting the LEAP OF FAITH~! COLE And Vitamin X with a big elbow to the heart of Cappa! Reject gives PR a foot to the gut, then comes off the ropes with a swinging neckbreaker! He then sets him up at the ropes, and runs to the ropes, coming back with ROLLING THUNDER~! as the count starts... 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[i]Make Her Say[/i] by O-Town hits, and Scotty Static steps out onto the stage. He gives a thumbs-up to Knight and Axel before he rushes to the ring! COACH AW YEAH! COLE It's Scotty Static, one half of the Global Party Xchange! Scotty slides into the ring and starts hammering on Dan Black, until TK grabs him and backs him into a corner. Reject takes over on Black as TK hits a couple kicks to the midsection, but Scotty goes to the eyes and turns it around in the corner. Scotty hits a short dropkick right to the abdomen of TK! Scotty then wrenches the arm and climbs to the top rope. COACH I'm not sure how smart this move is on Scotty's part... He completes it, however, walking across the top rope and executing a hurricanrana! Scotty kips up, then runs to the ropes and comes off with a snap legdrop! Scotty then lifts TK off the mat and sets him up on the ropes for elimination! COLE TK could be going right here, Coach! Reject makes the save for his partner, however, and drops Scotty to the mat with a high kick to the head. TK and Reject then focus once again on Dan Black, picking him up and attempting to dump him over as the crowd gets anxious! COACH And now Dan Black in trouble, Cole, one of the favorites in this match! Suddenly, Scotty sneaks up and dumps ALL THREE guys over the top rope...but they all land on the apron! Scotty doesn't realize this, and starts taunting the crowd. When he turns around, he's in for a big surprise, as all three guys are staring him down! Black hits a chop from Scotty's left side, then Reject drops him with an enziguri! Black then picks up Scotty, and begins the Chimera suplex sequence, hitting a Dragon, German, and finishing with a Tiger suplex! COLE #7 about to make his way to the ring very shortly! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [i]G's and Soldiers[/i] hits, and out struts Logan "Usher" Mann! COLE And it's one half of the Heavenly Rockers, who this week in the Anderson Cup will meet Los Diablos de Fuego, who scored a MAJOR upset over the GPX several weeks ago! COACH And don't forget, TK and Reject both still out there, and there's a very good chance that those two teams could cross paths in that tournament! Logan strides down the aisle and climbs into the ring slowly, and then not-so-slowly drops Reject with a BIG left hand! COLE And there's that left, right off the bat from Logan Mann! Logan immediately picks Reject up onto his shoulders and sets him up in the corner, attempting to force him over! Meanwhile, TK ducks a double clothesline from Black and Static and hits one of his own! COLE How about that? One half of Black T and one half of the GPX attempting to work together right there, but TK came back on them with a big double clothesline! TK pitches Scotty over the top rope, but he lands on the apron. TK then rushes over to make the save on Reject, and the two then double team Logan in the corner. TK picks up Logan in a side slam, and Reject comes off the ropes and gives him a legdrop as TK drops down! COACH Nice double team move there by TK & Reject, and if they keep working together like this and co-existing, they could be in there right up until the end! Static and Black slug it out in another corner, with Black getting the better of the exchange (get it? LOLZ), and giving him a double-arm DDT! Black then goes over and grabs TK, giving him a German suplex! He then goes for one of the Tiger variety, but TK blocks, then gets an arm free and twists around, countering and planting Black with a TOMBSTONE~! COLE GREAT counter there by TK! Static then dropkicks TK as he's kneeling down, and then goes over to join Reject in a double suplex attempt on Logan Mann. However, Logan is able to counter and plant BOTH guys with the PERCUSSION~! COACH Wow, he planted BOTH guys with the PERCUSSION~! COLE Alf just typed that in the PBP, you idiot. COACH ... Here's the countdown, Cole! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!!

Static hits a standing moonsault, and Black goes to the top rope, and comes off with a DIVING HEADBUTT~! All four men start to celebrate, but TK & Reject go after Black and Static, respectively.

COLE And Bohemoth awaiting the man who took the HI-YAH championship from him a couple months ago! Parka runs down and slides into the ring, ducking a clothesline and hitting a jumping leg lariat! Parka then ground pounds Bo, then gets up and yells out to the crowd, which gives him a very warm response. Bo hits a thrust to the throat of Parka, then whips him into the ropes. Parka ducks a clothesline, floats over and hits a DDT! COLE The Parka on FIRE here against big Bohemoth! Reject then begins trading blows with Parka, as TK takes over on Bo and Static and Black continue to slug it out. Reject delivers a kick to Parka, and then joins TK in working Bo over. Parka regains his senses and goes to Dan's aid, as they work over Scotty. Parka then signals to TK and Reject, who set up Bo for a double atomic drop. Parka and Black do the same to Static, and he and Bo collide into one another and fall to the mat! COLE Double atomic drops in stereo! COACH Wait, what are they setting up now? TK and Reject stand across from one another, each with a hold of a leg of Bo and Scotty. Parka holds the arms of Scotty while Black holds those of Bo, and TK and Reject drop to the mat and start rowing the boat! COLE Oh, it's the old rowboat move! Listen to the crowd, they love it! TK and Reject then release the move, and TK jumps Parka and starts choking him on the mat! Reject has Dan Black on the ropes in trouble! TK releases the choke on Parka and goes to help his partner! Bo recovers and gives Black a shove, and Black falls over, but slides back in underneath the legs of TK and Reject!

We're 1/3 of the way through the entrants! O'Hara slides into the ring and jumps on Parka, saving TK indirectly. COACH No love lost between these two, Cole! O'Hara backs Parka into the corner and starts laying in kicks as TK and Reject once again work Black over in the corner. This time, however, Black begins to slug back at both men, and fights his way out of the corner. Meanwhile, Bohemoth charges at Scotty Static, who drops down and Bo goes tumbling over him and to the floor! On the stage, Axel leaps out of his seat, holding his head in his hands as Knight pounds his recliner with his fist. COLE Bohemoth was just eliminated! That was pure reflex on Scotty's part.

However, Parka rolls out of the way, and O'Hara finds nothing but canvas! Dan Black picks up O'Hara on his shoulders and carries him over to the ropes, but O'Hara is able to get his hands on the ropes to stop himself from going over. He then thumbs Black in the eyes before getting clotheslined to the mat by Parka. Parka then starts chopping Black in the corner, then when he tries to whip him into the opposite corner, Black reverses and pulls Parka in for an overhead belly-to-belly! COLE No friends in this match, as you're seeing right now with two Originals, Dan Black and The Parka! COACH And as you saw moments ago with Bohemoth being eliminated by his fellow Upstart, Scotty Static!

COLE O'Hara planted, and here's the countdown to #11! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As we return live, EMTs have immobilized Stephen Joseph on a stretcher and are wheeling him out of the arena as Peter Knight and Axel remain on the stage, having moved over to a pair of comfy leather recliners that are situated just left of the entrance. A couple of lovely models pour each man a glass of champagne and they toast PK's victory. Knight then hands off his belt to the brunette and takes a seat while Axel sets the briefcase down next to his chair and also sits. COLE Look at this; they nearly kill a guy and now they're acting like kings. COACH You know, I wonder if they'll let me join them up there? CABOOSE You sit your ass right here, Coach. COLE Well folks, the time is here! The Road to AngleMania V officially begins right now. Let's go up to our special guest announcer for this match, The Fink! FINK Ladies and gentlemen, it is now time for the Lethal Rumble MATCH! *crowd pops* Here are the rules. In just a few moments, the participants who drew numbers 1 and 2 will begin the match, and every two minutes thereafter, another wrestler will enter the ring according to the number he drew. In the Lethal Rumble, it is every man for himself. Elimination occurs when a wrestler is thrown out over the top rope and BOTH FEET must hit the floor. The one participant remaining after all 30 have entered will be declared the winner, and will receive an OAOAST World championship match at AngleMANIA! *crowd pops* [i]God of Thunder[/i] hits and Thunderkid comes through the curtain. COLE And here comes the #1 entry, Coach! FINK Introducing the participant who drew #1! From Green Bay, Wisconsin...THUNDERKID!!! Thunderkid steps through the curtain and Axel stands, pointing at him and slapping the briefcase, reminding him that there's something else on the line other than a title shot. COLE Thunderkid makes his way to the ring, he's had problems with his partner, Reject, as of late, Coach, however, they did manage to advance in the Anderson Cup tournament just ten days ago! COACH That's right, Cole, but Thunderkid won't have any partners in this one! CABOOSE You know, I'm shocked that Axel didn't abuse his powers even further and made Zack go in as #1, just so 29 other guys have a little extra motivation to toss him out. COLE Thunderkid, a former North American champion, can earn a shot at the World title tonight, but he'll have the tallest mountain to climb in order to do so! [i]Sweet Home Chicago[/i] hits. COACH Speaking of tall mountains... Jumbo struts through the curtains as the lyrics start, giving high fives to the fans. FINK And now, here is the #2 participant in the Lethal Rumble match! From Chicago, Illinois...JUMBO!!! COLE So the biggest man in the match will have to start all the way from the beginning, Coach! *DING DING DING* COLE These two men know each other very well, of course TK involved in that huge rivalry with the now defunct Stevens/Heyross Incorporated! TK and Jumbo trade blows, then Jumbo grabs a headlock. TK pushes him off into the ropes, but Jumbo ducks a clothesline and hits one of his own! Jumbo dances for the crowd, who responds positively. COACH Jumbo getting a nice reaction for that, and TK could be the first one out right here, Cole! Jumbo has picked TK up in a slam position and set him on the top buckle in an elimination attempt! However, TK goes to the eyes of the big guy, then sits up on the second rope and takes him down with a bulldog! COLE Nice move by TK, but he's got to pick him up and put him over the top! Instead, TK waits on Jumbo to get to his feet, then whips him hard into the buckles! Jumbo bounces back, and TK whips him into the opposite buckles, this time catching him coming out of the corner, scooping him up and giving him a BIG bodyslam! COLE TK scooping up all 440 pounds of Jumbo and slamming him to the canvas! COACH Great show of strength there by TK, but again, he's got to put him up and over! TK delivers a stiff European uppercut, which sends Jumbo staggering back into the corner. TK follows him in and drives a few shoulders, then goes for the legs. He gets one up, but Jumbo delivers a forearm to the back as he goes for the second. They trade blows some more, with TK getting the advantage, but as he comes off the ropes, he runs right into the BIG BOOT~! of Jumbo! Jumbo regains his thoughts, then backs into the ropes and comes off with a big elbowdrop! COLE And here comes the count! We're set to add a third man! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! [i]What's the Difference[/i] hits and Reject sprints down the aisle! COLE It's Reject!!! Reject got #3!!! COACH I don't believe this, Cole! What luck of the draw for TK & Reject if they can co-exist!

TK and Reject set up Jumbo and whip him into the ropes, but Jumbo ducks and comes back with a double clothesline! Jumbo backs Reject into a corner and drives knees and shoulders in, then makes his way back to TK. TK, however, comes up off his knees with a low blow! Jumbo grabs his balls, then turns around, right into the EULOGY~!!!!!11111 from Reject! COLE Reject hits the EULOGY~! This should end Jumbo's night if they can get him up! Reject and TK pick up Jumbo off the mat, then pick him up in a double bodyslam and carry him to the ropes, where they dump him over the top and down to the floor! COLE And there goes Jumbo, the first man eliminated from the 2006 Lethal Rumble! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 1st elimination: Jumbo Entered: #2 Time of participation: 3:01 Eliminated: None Eliminated by: Thunderkid, Reject Left in ring: Thunderkid, Reject ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ COACH Look, Cole!

TK measures Reject, and delivers a bicycle kick as he turns around! TK then picks up Reject in a PRESS SLAM~!, but Reject wiggles free and shoves TK off into the corner, then comes back with a windmill kick! Reject follows up with a dropkick, but a hurricanrana attempt is blocked with a sitout powerbomb! COLE What a showing between these two tag team partners! TK then slowly gets to his feet and sets Reject up on the ropes. COLE And the countdown to #4 is set to begin! TK, hearing the count start, sets Reject down and they wait on the next participant. 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!

Nick slides in and hits a quick dropkick on Reject, then ground pounds him for a couple seconds before TK picks him up. COACH Credit to Nick, he came right in on the offense against these guys! TK holds Nick back and Reject delivers some straight kicks to the midsection. TK then releases the grip and delivers a back suplex. COLE But he's in there against two guys who are going to work together as long as there's other people in the ring, tough luck of the draw for Nick Garner. Reject follows TK's back suplex with ROLLING THUNDER~! TK then pick up Nick in a hangman's hold. COACH Oh no, not this again... Reject lays in a roundhouse kick to the midsection! The crowd groans as Nick holds his ribs on the mat. COLE They're not done yet, Coach! TK picks up Nick, and hooks him in a dragon sleeper. He then lifts him up by the tights, onto Reject's shoulder, for the THUNDEROUS REJECTION~!!!!!11111 Nick is in trememdous agony, and TK and Reject finally pick him up and pitch him to the floor.

COACH Here's a guy that could possibly contend with both TK and Reject! Black slides into the ring, and meets Reject with a big clothesline! TK catches a superkick as he gets to his feet! Black then picks up TK and drives him with a BLACK BOMB~! COLE Looks like you may be right, Coach, and it looks like Reject is on his way out! Dan has Reject on his shoulder trying to slam him out, as Reject desperately holds on to the ropes! TK recovers in time to save his partner, then whips Dan into the ropes. Dan, however, twists around and hits a DDT on TK! Reject comes over and rakes the eyes of Black while he's still on the mat, then drops a snap legdrop! TK and Reject pick up Black and give him a double suplex! Reject plays to the crowd, getting a mixture of cheers and boos, and then they set Black up again, this time with their backs to the ropes. COACH Oh, they're going to try to take him out this time! Black, however, is able to block, and as he comes down, shifts his weight and takes both men over with armdrags! COLE GREAT counter by Black right there! Black then picks up TK and sets up the BLACKOUT~!!!!!11111, but TK shoves him off, right into a spinkick from Reject! TK and Reject pick Black up and whip him hard into the corner, but Black comes out with a double clothesline! All three men are down on the mat. Black struggles to his feet first and works on Reject as the count starts. COLE #6 about to make his appearance! 10!!! 9!!!! 8!!!! 7!!!! 6!!!! 5!!!! 4!!!! 3!!!! 2!!!! 1!!!! BUZZ~!!!!!!!!!!!!

This should go after the other stuff I posted [i]God of Thunder[/i] hits and Thunderkid and Reject make their way down the aisle to the ring, getting a nice ovation. BUFFER [i]The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall! Coming down the aisle, at a total combined weight of 480 pounds...the team of THUNDERKID and RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRREJECT!!!!![/i] COLE Thunderkid and Reject set for action tonight here on HeldDOWN from the country music capital of the world! BUFFER [i]Their opponents, to my left, at a total combined weight of 507 pounds...the team of JASON LAWRENCE, and KIRK HARVEY!!![/i] *DING DING DING* COLE And it's gonna be Reject starting this one off against Kirk Harvey. Harvey takes a side headlock, but Reject pushes him off into the ropes. Harvey surprisingly takes Reject down with a shoulder check! Harvey follows up by trying with a clothesline, but Reject ducks and hits a big dropkick! Lawrence comes into the ring and catches a windmill kick, sending him backwards over the top rope! Harvey gets to his feet, and Reject grabs the top rope and jumps, hooking his ankles around the neck of Harvey and pulling him over the top rope! Reject then skins the cat back in, and jumps right back over with a PLANCHA~! COLE So far it's been all Reject in this match, a very impressive showing! Reject rolls back into the ring and waits on his opponents to regroup. Harvey rolls back in and tags Lawrence, who charges and gets caught in a side headlock! TK is seen reaching for a tag, but Reject gets up and is pushed off by Lawrence. Reject ducks a clothesline and hits a standing spin kick! COLE Well, TK wanted the tag there when Reject had Lawrence in the side headlock, but apparently Reject didn't see him, Coach! COACH Oh, he saw him, Cole. He's not finished with this guy yet, he just doesn't want TK to get in there and mess things up like he did at Climax. Reject picks up Lawrence and delivers a snap suplex, right in front of TK! COLE Wow, Reject *definitely* saw TK that time! COACH I'm telling you, Cole, Reject is trying to prove a point to his partner right now, that had he just stayed out of the way at Climax, they could have the six-man gold right now! Reject runs over and dropkicks Harvey off the apron, then waits for Lawrence to get up...and hits the EULOGY~!!!!!11111 COLE Stick a fork in this one! 1... 2.... 3!!!! *DING DING DING* BUFFER [i]Here are your winners...THUNDERKID and RRRRRRRRRRRRRRREJECT!!!!![/i] Reject celebrates in the ring, while TK has words with him from the apron. TK then jumps off the apron and starts to make his way towards the back. COACH Camera, come back to the ring!!! The camera pans back to show Team Heyross attacking Reject in the ring! Team Heyross hits a DOUBLE GOOZLE~!!! TK hears the commotion and sprints back to the ring to aid his partner! TK hits a double clothesline, but turns around into a clothesline himself from Brock Ausstin!!! Brock backs TK into the corner and starts kicking him as Alfdogg slides into the ring and starts delivering right hands to him! Alf runs to the ropes and htis a flying bodypress on Brock, and they both go tumbling over the top rope! As Alf and Brock brawl through the crowd, Quentin Benjamin delivers a chair shot to the back of Reject! As he sets to deliver another one, TK grabs the chair from him and chases Team Heyross from the ring! Reject recovers and sees TK with the chair, and gives him a shove! TK tries to explain himself, but Reject leaves the ring, not wanting to hear any of it. COLE What is going on between these two? And they have to co-exist in the Anderson Cup here soon! Later... COLE We've just gotten word, Coach, that next week here on HeldDOWN, it's going to be a re-match from Climax, as the 6-man tag champs, Brock Ausstin and Team Heyross, defend against the team of Alfdogg, Thunderkid and Reject! COACH But after what we saw earlier tonight between TK and Reject, I can't see how they even stand a chance in this match!

Someone clear this up for me: If Jacksonville beats New England, would they play Denver instead of the Colts, or does it go by seeding? I thought it went by records, but my uncle thinks differently.

Maurice Clarett must have been at the Fiesta Bowl, because Notre Dame got robbed.

*Cut to Josh Matthews backstage.* JOSH Joining me at this time, the 2005 Wrestler of the Year, as well as the reigning two-time Heartland champion, Alfdogg! *Alf walks onto the screen as the crowd goes wild.* JOSH Alf, you heard the words of Brock Ausstin two weeks ago on this show, is there anything you'd like to say at this time in regards to that? ALF You know, Josh, I was sitting at home recuperating from that Christmas Deathmatch, and I hear Brock Ausstin running his mouth out in the ring, talking about having me right where he wanted me. And you know, over the past couple months, when he had five guys in a stable assisting him, he thought the same thing. But guess what? *Alf holds up the Heartland belt and the crowd cheers.* They were all wrong. Now, Brock, there's no doubt that you may be the most dangerous and upredictable superstar in this business today. But what makes you think that you can do yourself, what you and five of your buddies, or former buddies, couldn't? You can bet our paths will cross again Brock, and when they do, you can expect an all-out rumble the likes of which you've never seen in your life. *crowd cheers* JOSH And speaking of a Rumble, that of course brings us to January 29th and Anglepalooza, where the 30 top superstars in the world vie for a shot at the OAOAST World championship in the Lethal Rumble, you're one of those 30, Alf. ALF That's right, Josh. And you know that I'll go through whoever I have to to make sure that at AngleMania, it's going to be *points to self* the best Wrestler of 2005, vs the best of 2006. And Peter Knight, you finally did it on Sunday, way to go. Enjoy it while you can, because at AngleMania, it's all going to be gone again, when I walk out of Atlantic City the TWO-TIME OAOAST World heavyweight champion. *crowd cheers as Alf walks off.* JOSH That is, of course, assuming that PK still *has* the belt going into AngleMania. Let's go back out to ringside! COLE Thank you Josh... [i]Sweet Home Chicago[/i] by the Blues Brothers hits, and as the lyrics begin, JUMBO struts through the curtains in rhythm with the music! COLE ...and here comes Jumbo with a new look, Coach! COACH Well, we haven't seen the big guy or his friends Chris & Jay since Climax, but Jumbo is back right here tonight! Jumbo walks down the sides of the aisle, receiving high-fives from the fans, who suddenly have seemed to warm up to him. He then rolls into the ring. BUFFER [i]The following contest is scheduled for one fall! To my right, hailing from Chicago, Illinois, and weighing in at 440 pounds...JUMMMMMMMMMMMMMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!![/i] Jumbo raises his arms to the crowd, who give him a warm reception. BUFFER [i]Already in the ring, from Wichita, Kansas, weighing in at 238 pounds...STANLEY KING!!![/i] *DING DING DING* COLE The crowd really seems to have welcomed Jumbo back with open arms here in Nashville, as he ties up with Stanley King from Wichita, Kansas! Jumbo throws King right back into his corner out of the tie-up, then laughs and struts across the ring as King smacks his hands down on the ring ropes. King complains to the referee about a hair-pull, drawing boos from the crowd. He then ties up with Jumbo again, and Jumbo grabs a side headlock. King grabs a handful of hair and pulls him back into the ropes, then whips him to the other side. Jumbo comes back with a full head of steam, however, and shoulder checks King, who rolls over backwards and rolls right out of the ring! COACH Well, young Stanley King letting his inexperience shine through, trying to match power with the big guy when he's got about a 200-pound weight disadvantage! King rolls back into the ring and circles Jumbo, backing into a corner. Jumbo lunges at King, who dodges and hits Jumbo with a dropkick, which staggers him. COACH That's what he got to do, he's got to use speed and try to wear the big guy down! However, a second dropkick attempt is simply brushed away, and Jumbo takes him down with a kneelift! Jumbo then measures King, and drops an elbow! Cover... 1.... 2........ Kickout! COLE Wow, credit to King right there, kicking out of that massive elbowdrop from Jumbo! Jumbo picks King up and backs him into a corner, driving shoulders to the midsection. He then pulls him back out, and drills him with a vertical suplex! Jumbo plays to the crowd, who gives him another positive reaction! He then grabs King and whips him to the ropes, catching him with a BIG BOOT~! Jumbo then backs into the ropes, and comes back with the XL SPLASH~!!!111 1... 2...... 3!!! *DING DING DING* BUFFER [i]Here is your winner...JUMBO!!![/i] COLE An impressive showing from Jumbo in his return bout, and I'm still amazed at the sudden popularity of the big guy! *Jumbo walks to the back, giving some more fives to the ringsiders.*

TK/Reject and Jumbo in enhancement matches.

UsetheCarnivalUh

It's funny 'cause their R's sound like L's

Promo from Alfdogg concerning the Lethal Rumble and Brock Ausstin.

Wow, I didn't see that coming from you!

Imagine ESPN if it was a team from the East coast or the Lakers.

Some seem to think that the two share the account.

Perhaps this is a better question: If you have someone who is absolutely NOT to be in the Rumble (besides the people in the World title match, of course), send me a PM and let me know. I won't be around again until Thursday night, because we'll be driving home from vacation.

Why would Austin care if Owen went over Shawn or HHH?

Yeah, and it rocked, IIRC

I think they were saying 4th as in they can't go any higher if they don't win their division. Surely no one really thought the Nets or Cavs would be better.

re: Jefferson/Nate I've yet to see anyone from the Nets approach someone their own size when looking for a fight. Tim Thomas was right about the lot of them.
