EMF: Saturday Shockwave

(The EMF logo flashes on the screen, and we go into the Saturday Shockwave video. Once that ends we go into the darken around in Phoenix, Arizona as pyrotechnics blasts on the Shockwave stage. The lights turn on, as fans wave their signs. Some signs say “I revolt against sign making”, “Matt Hardy saved my sign”, and “CRAE ate my other sign”.)

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

King-And we do have quite a show tonight, headlined by enemies of Mike New facing off.

Kris Gaffney-Guess we’ll find out who hates him more.

(“Pig” blasts on the PA system as Solstice walks to the ring with Hanover following behind, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-This man was in the middle of the whole Gambler, and Big Sal mess.

King-Well he didn’t cause it, he was just in the wrong place, at the wrong time.

Kris Gaffney-Although Brent Pond would probably disagree.

(“Monster” blasts on the PA system as Carnage walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring through stepping over the top rope.)

JR-Last year around this time, Carnage went on the hot streak of a career.

King-But he’s cooled down since.

Kris Gaffney-Who cares…he was world champion!

(“If You Smell…” blasts on the PA system as the Rock walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-the Rock has history with everyone, but Solstice.

King-Maybe that’s why he focused on Solstice.

Kris Gaffney-Thinking in it much?

(“The Glass Breaks” as Stone Cold Steve Austin walks to the ring.)

*King holds up a recording that has JR saying “I’m not sure what….AUSTIN….is thinking”*

Kris Gaffney-Well…had to do that to drown out the STONE COLD’s.

[The Rock, Austin, Solstice, and Carnage pace around the ring. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, and the Rock throwing fists to the face. Solstice tries to go after Carnage, and he hits a few fists to the face, but it’s countered by Carnage who stares back at Solstice as he is not effected, and he blocks one of the punch, and grabs Solstice hand, and lifts him up. Solstice is in pain, and Carnage throws him out of the mat. Carnage waits as Solstice gets up, and Solstice gets hit with a running big boot that plants Solstice. Carnage hits a few stomps on the downed Solstice. Soltice is in pain, and the ref who is doing all he can to keep some order, even though he really doesn’t have to since it’s a hardcore match. Carnage gets backed up Solstice goes over the middle rope, and Carnage is able to go over to where he is Carnage uses his boot, and pushes down on Solstice back, and the ref counts to four, once again even though he doesn’t have to. He lets go, and he runs to the ropes, and comes off of the ropes. Carnage comes down crashing on the back of Carnage. Carnage backs up, and Solstice stumbles towards Carnage. Carnage sets up Solstice, and pulls him in, and hits a short arm clothesline that knocks down Solstice. Carnage holds on to Solstice, and he brings him over to the corner, and he smashes Carnage into the corner, and then he hits a few knee lifts into the corner on Solstice. Solstice is stunned, and Carnage brings out Solstice to the ropes, and he whips him to the ropes he bounces off of the ropes. Carnage lowers his head, but Solstice is able to counter with a swinging neck breaker. Carnage is in pain, but is fairly quick to get up to his feet. So much so Solstice realizes he needs to do something drastic, he nips up. He kicks Carnage in the gut, and this doubles over Carnage, and he goes for a DDT, but Carnage pushes out of it. Carnage watches as Solstice goes backwards, and Solstice hooks the top rope, and Carnage charges at Solstice. Solstice counters with a drop toe hold that sends Carnage into the middle rope. Carnage stumbles out of ropes. Solstice sets up Carnage, and sets up, and hits a high angled DDT that plants Carnage on his head. Solstice goes into the cover, and the ref pushes Solstice Carange on his back, and the ref counts the 1……………….2…………………Carnage is able to kick out, which sends Solstice out of the ring. Solstice is a bit stunned, and Carnage is stunned. Carnage stumbles up to his feet. He goes over to Solstice, who hits a hang man, which makes Carnage stumbles him backwards.]

JR-Solstice is neutralizing the height of Carnage.

King-Well…guess this is the power of equalizing Scott Tazte has spoken about.

Kris Gaffney-Maybe he can be an expert on this or something.

[The Rock and Stone Cold are battling on the outside as Austin picks up the Rock, and smashes him on the guard rail as he lifts him up, and drops him face first. The Rock stumbles forward, and “Stone Cold” Steve Austin measures up, and charges at the Rock, but the Rock is able to counter it by the Rock throwing Austin into the corner, and he smashes into the steel steps back first. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin is in a lot of pain, and he stumbles up to his feet, and the Rock hits a kick to the gut, and the Rock sets up in a vertical suplex position “Stone Cold” Steve Austin up, and he lifts him up, and drives him down on the mat. “Stone Cold” Steve Austin crashes hard on the mat with a splat. The Rock picks up Austin, and brings him over to the announcers desk, and smashes his head on the desk. Austin lays on the table. The Rock goes over to the announcers side, and the Rock grabs a bottle of water, and he puts water in his mouth like he’s about to drink some, but then suddenly he spits the water in the face of “Stone Cold” Steve Austin stumbles away, and the Rock cleans up the table. He grabs the monitor. He waits for Austin to go where he wants to, and the Rock sets up Austin, and he hits a Rock Bottom through a table. The Rock looks up having felt better doing that, but he knows that he can’t really do anything as he can’t go into the cover on the outside. He lifts Austin from the wreckage, and throws him into the ring. The Rock goes into the cover, and the ref counts 1……………….2…………Solstice comes into the picture, and attacks the Rock, Solstice grabs the Rock, and throws him hard into the ring post. The Rock is in pain, and he falls out of the ring. Austin crawls behind him, and Stone Cold hits a low blow on Solstice. Stone Cold turns Solstice, and he hits a stunner that sends Solstice out of the ring. Stone Cold Steve Austin doesn’t look too happy that he couldn’t win the match right there, and he gets up to his feet, he runs right into Carnage who picks up Austin, and tries to run into the corner. Stone Cold slides out of the back, and Carnage crashes into the corner. Stone Cold hits a few stomps which puts Carnage into a sitting position, and he flips off Carnage, and hits a finally boot.]

JR-STONE COLD IS STOMPING A MUDHOLE *gets slapped in the back of the head, as he has the Festus look*

King-Someone had to do it.

Kris Gaffney-And I’m sure your glad it was you.

[Austin mocks the crowd, and turns around right into a Rock Bottom attempt, but Austin is able to hit a low blow. Rock stumbles around in pain, and Austin kicks the Rock in the gut, and hits a Stunner! The Rock after doing a series of over acting flips falls out of the ring, Austin laughs, and turns around, suddenly he runs to the ropes, and he gets tripped up by Angelina Love who is on the outside. Austin gets up, and turns around as Love gives him the double middle figures, which distracts him long enough for Carnage to sneak up on him, and school boy’s Austin up, and gets the 1………2………3!]

JR-Carnage took advantage of this situation, and got the win.

King-Guess Austin never saw that one coming.

(note: Hardest call in a while, especially between Carnage and Solstice, nice job everyone.)

(“Bad Company” blasts on the PA system as Big Sal with Tony Valentino walks to the ring.)

JR-Last week Big Sal made a mistake, but tried to make up for it.

King-He did give Pond a chance to recover and save his title, just Gambler was able to do it first.

Kris Gaffney-Gambler is a marked man now, luckily AN ARKIE always misses.

(“They don’t care about us” blasts on the PA system as Luther Savage walks to the ring, and he steps inside of the ring.)

JR-This man has made it clear that he doesn’t like the power in the EMF.

King-I’d love for someone to be obsessed with being for the staff.

Kris Gaffney-Other than the random Amy lovers.

King-Yeah, we already seen them.

[Luther Savage paces around Big Sal who stands in the middle of the ring watching Luther Savage.

JR-Luther Savage is planning his next move very carefully.

King-Well, guess he wants to focus his energy on this match…after all he’s going against a five year old….how hard can it be?

Kris Gaffney-Well…considering Ashley Irvine, harder than you think…by the way, happy birthday!

[Big Sal is still down on the mat, so Luther Savage goes to the outside of the ring, and he climbs up to the top rope. He waits as Big Sal is getting up to his feet, and he goes for what seems to be a double axe handle. But it’s countered by Big Sal blocking it, and then putting Luther Savage into a bear hug, and driving Big Sal into the turnbuckle, and Big Sal is in pain so much so that once Luther Savage is driven into the ring post, he is in pain himself.

The ref calls for the bell giving the KO submission to Luther Savage!]

JR-Luther Savage has won this match.

Kris Gaffney-Guess you make the biggest mistakes when your not trying to.

[Luther rolls out the ring, and walks towards the time keeper demanding for a microphone as Bad Company is leaving ring side, but seemly Savage has something more to say to them.]

Luther Savage: Did you see that everyone? I told you guys I was one of the best to do it, and I'm going to show you week in and week out. Big Sal was a small stepping stone. Sal, you just need to go out on your own. You need to become your own mind. Stop following those losers. You can do a lot more thinking on your own man. You got the power and the will. You just need to march to your own drum! Don't follow me. Don't follow him. Follow yourself!

JR-It looks like Savage is trying to stir the pot here.

Luther Savage: You do what you want. If you want to be a sheep then go ahead and be a sheep. I will tell you this much. I'd rather be a lion for a day then a sheep for the rest of my life. Just think about what I'm saying Big Sal.

[Luther walks around the ring and up the ramp as we go to commercial.]
