EMF: Shockwave

(The EMF logo flashes on the screen, and we go into the Saturday Shockwave video)

(Once it ends, we go into the arena hosting Shockwave as pyrotechnics blasts on the stage, and the lights turn on. The fans wave their signs and scream. Some signs say “That’s a long chamber”, “Austin stole my nickname!”, and “Nat saying nothing doesn’t mean a no to a date!”)

JR-Welcome to Saturday Shockwave, I’m good ol’ JR, Jim Ross along side Jerry “the King” Lawler, and Kris “KG” Gaffney.

King-And we have quite a show on the road to First Blood. Kevin Bourne will face Troy Gafgen in a non-title.

Kris Gaffney-Troy could be right, this match despite being a non-title could determine title fates.

("Million Dollar Theme" plays and Natasha Jones makes her way out to the ring. She takes a microphone as she slides into the ring.)

JR: Surely we're not about to hear from Natasha Jones... she hasn't said a word since her return to the company from being dead.

(Natasha takes a deep breath and puts her microphone to her mouth, and then lowers it again to boos from the crowd. She smirks, but then she raises the microphone again, and this time, breaks her silence.)

Natasha: Last week at Latino Heat... I won a battle royal, giving me a shot at either Mickie James or Nicole Ikeda's women's championships. As it happens though... neither appeals to me very much. I have no reason to want to go after Mickie... and I don't respect Nicole's 2nd reject title. So it got me thinking.... should I just give up the title shot I earned? No... of course not. So I went to John Cena... and talked him into letting me change my prize, into the right to face whoever I want to face at EMF First Blood. Not it's no secret that ever since I've been back... I've been getting involved in the matches of Amy Dumas... and having already destroyed and injured most of the roster... it's time for Amy to get what's coming to her..... so at First Blood I will go one on one with...

("Light It Up" plays and AJ Lee makes her way onto the ramp, holding a microphone. She interrupts Natasha before she can make her match official.)

AJ Lee: Not so fast Miss Jones.... not so fast. You see.... John Cena still hasn't made a decision between me and Tiffany as to who should be the GM. I guess Tiffany isn't the only one who can.... persuade him. So he's said that we're both going to get a 1 week trial, and I'm up first. Now it's no secret that I'm a big fan of Amy, and I'm not going to let you put her on the shelf like you have half the roster.... so tonight you're going to defend your prize.... against me!

(AJ skips down the ring and the bell sounds to start the match.

[AJ Lee, and Natasha Jones pace around the ring, and they lock up, and once they lock up Natasha Jones tries to strike with a knee lift. But AJ Lee is able to catch this, and she hits a leg whip that sends Natasha Jones flying down on the mat, and then she gets up to her feet AJ hits a running clothesline that knocks Natasha Jones down on the mat. Natasha Jones stumbles up to her feet, and then AJ Lee hits a drop kick that sends Natasha Jones flying out of the ring. Natasha Jones is a little shocked at this. AJ Lee tries to get out of the ring, and Natasha Jones is able to hit a hang man that sends AJ Lee back into the ring. While AJ is down on the mat, and the ref is checking on her, Natasha Jones takes off the middle covering off. AJ Lee charges at Natasha Jones, Natasha Jones counters with a drop toe hold that sends AJ Lee flying into the unprotected middle rope. She is down on the mat, but it doesn’t seem like Natasha Jones wants to make this a quick work. She hits a few stomps on the downed AJ Lee who is sitting in the corner almost out of it, and she puts her boot on the throat. The ref counts to 4, seemly not even realizing that Natasha used the middle ropes. Natasha backs off with a hands in the air to show she’s innocent, and a eye roll. Natasha picks up AJ Lee, and she whips her to the ropes, and then she bounces off of the ropes. AJ Lee goes for her leg scissors out of instinct, but Natasha Jones is able to push her off, and he crashes hard almost on her head. AJ Lee dazed is slow to get up to her feet. Natasha hits the Get Bent on AJ Lee! Natasha goes into the cover, and the ref counts the 1………..2……..3!]

JR-AJ gave Natasha a fight, but she wasn’t able to come back from that turnbuckle shot.

King-Guess just shows that Natasha isn’t above doing dirty tactics to get what she wants.

(After the match Natasha takes a microphone again, and addresses the crowd.)

Natasha: See.... no one can beat me... no one. Not AJ Lee. Not Amy Dumas.... not anyone on this whole roster. But you know... maybe I was a bit hasty... because there is someone else I want to prove myself against... so I guess for now... I'll hold off announcing my match... but believe me... whether it's at First Blood... or later... Amy Dumas is going to get what's coming to her... and end up just like all the rest of these talentless whores.

(She drops the microphone and leaves the ring.)

(“The Glass Breaks” blasts on the PA system as Stone Cold Steve Austin walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

(“” blasts on the PA system as Kevin Bourne walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-If Kevin Bourne is looking to prove himself as a champion, an elimination chamber is a good way to do it.

(“The Heretic Anthem” blasts on the PA system as Troy Gafgen walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-Although, Troy has been keeping his eyes on the world championship since he’s returned.
