We cut to back as Pope Daddy! And Josh Matthews, your hosts here tonight. They preview our main event including the matches I just posted. The top five contenders are led by Hardy and Roode, as we have a series of hardcore stipulatio-

Bram vs Magnus

Streetfight

Bram and Magnus are already going at it in the aisle! They battle inside the ring, and fight their way out as Magnus sends Bram into the post. Magnus has gained the upper hand as he attacks Bram in the corner with a series of kicks and stomps. Magnus sits Bram atop and goes for the Superplex! He lands it and stalks his former partner. Magnus takes a hard back elbow, but kicks the boot into the face of a charging Bram.

Bram battles with strikes and a toss to the outside floor. Off the side and baseball slide into the ring apron! Shades of Fit Finlay as Magnus takes control, but eats a garbage can lid to the face. Bram pulls out the Plundah from down under and rails away with a cookie sheet to the top of the head! Bram takes Magnus around, sending him into the barricade, and goes back to pull more out from under including a trash can he sends down across the back of Magnus. Bram Trash Can Lid down on Magnus, and tosses the man back inside like nothing.

Bram is all punchy but misses the elbow, walks into a kick and Magnus hits a second rope Missile. Magnus is slow to get up, has the can and kick to place it over Bram! Magnus with the chair and the fans approve, CHAIR TO THE CAN!

Magnus does it again, Bram is wobbling and MAGNUS CHAIRS THE CAN! Bram goes down.

Magnus sets Bram up for the Top Rope Elbow, off the buckles and one, two, does not get three. Bram is slow to get up as Magnus picks him but Bram avoids and hits the Referee! Magnus manages a Spine Shaker, no Ref to count! Magnus rises and eats a lowblow, the rollup and Bob’s your Uncle!

OFFICIAL RESULT: Bram at 6:37 with the lowblow!

James STORM hits the cowbell! He promises to reveal who his partner is in his upcoming mixed tag match with Magnus and Mickie James. Storm shows off, he will announce this mystery woman later on tonight.

Why Eli Why?

Eli Drake walks out with crutch raised, fresh from making Drew Galloway #FallDown and the fans do not seem happy to see him. Eli cost Drew his title opportunity, and makes sure we know who he is.

“My Name is ELI DRAKE.”

Everyone is upset, crying and such. Eli Drake was furious, and created an opportunity by smashing Drew who was taking all the credit for The Rising. Micah and Drew held him down, Drake used them and everyone would do the exact same in his place. We all use people, including women who use their men to pay their bills. Eli Drake was able to finish Drew’s hopes and dreams and promises Galloway will never be the World Champion as long as Eli is standing.

Drew makes his way out on the stage, mic in hand.

“Eli. I brought you into the Rising because I knew you had the killer instinct.”

Galloway says he had no idea that Eli was going to turn on him. But he’s just turned 30, he’s been wrestling for 15 years, beaten, bruised, battered, a torn shoulder but Drake hurt him worse, his own brother turned his back on him. He’s been depressed and drinking. (cheers) And angered, and turns it to the fans. Audible “Kick His Ass” chants fly across Orlando. Galloway says he’s gonna kick Eli’s Arse.

“I’ll make ya famous!”

Drew makes his way up the stairs as Eli holds the broken crutch, and Drew ducks the shot and takes Eli down with a series of forearms and elbows! Eli answers with a low kick and elbows of his own! Drew fires the kick, goes for the Future Shock but Eli rolls out!

Galloway clears the ring and screams as Drake is in full retreat.

Gail Kim cost Taryn Terrell her 238 days of Title reign and now to Christy with Pit War- again?

Taryn has interrupted! Bitching Out like Nicki Minaj at the VMAS!

The Dollhouse demand Gail Kim meet them in Six Sides of Steel

She is freaking the fuck out and demands Gail meet her in the Six Sides NOW!

Brooke makes her way out and mocks Terrell. She doesn’t care what Taryn thinks, and says the Dollho-s are responsible for what they got.

Taryn is screaming that no man can touch her, no Knockout can beat her in the ring. Brooke tells Terrell to come get the title from her. Taryn stalks out of the cage… and Gail Kim’s music kicks up. She’s in the cage! The lights arise and Kim attacks Marti and Jade! The cage is locked and Taryn can’t get inside!

Gail sends Marti into the cage! She tosses Jade into the steel! Brooke walks around the ring as Taryn rushes away!

Kim hits the dropkick to the backs of the Dollhouse, smushing them into the wall. The fans are cheering as Kim and Brooke celebrate, Taryn unable to help.
