[ Vince Russo ] Not right now, Storm..

[ Lance Storm ] Russo, I must insist that you do something about this!

[ Vince Russo ] FUCK OFF, STORM!!

-[[ Storm takes a step back, surprised by Russo's tone. ]]-

[ Vince Russo ] You stupid son of a bitch, Storm.. I already told you once tonight.. Get some charisma.. Forget this wrestlin' shit and I'll make sure ya' neva' get screwed ova' again.. Unda' my rule, this ain't a wrestlin' company.. It's an ENTA'TAAAAAINMENT company.. And the soona' you realize that, the soona' ya' gonna get a rematch for ya' championship...

-[[ He presses his index finger into Storm's chest. ]]-

[ Vince Russo ] The people who get places in MY company.. Are the people who are willin' to do anything to get there.. And until ya' fall into line and embrace sports enta'tainment... FUCK.. YOU!

-[[ Russo storms off in a huff.. Conway and Shelley go to follow him but Storm places his hand on Shelley's chest, stopping him in his tracks.. ]]-

[ Lance Storm ] Alex Shelley.. You're a hell of a competitor.. You've been all over the world honing your craft and becoming one of the best wrestlers in North America.... Why did you sell out to sports entertainment?

-[[ Shelley smirks. ]]-

[ Alex Shelley ] I didn't sell out to anything, bucko.. I bought in.

-[[ Storm looks down.. ]]-

[ Alex Shelley ] Sports entertainment's the choice of a new generation.

-[[ Shelley gives him the wink and the gun and walks off.. Storm stands there, humiliated by Russo's behavior and then he hears someone walk up next to him.. Storm slowly turns his head and finds himself staring into the face of, potential owner, William Regal. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Pay no mind to them, Lance.

[ Lance Storm ] I try not to.. But it is becoming increasingly difficult.

[ William Regal ] I assure you.. Hang tough and should I become the owner of Solid Gold Wrestling, you and your style of wrestling will be the centerpiece of the company.. Say what you will about sports entertainment.. It does hold its own place in this business, but in the end, the marquee does say wrestling and so shall it always.

-[[ Storm shakes Regal's hand. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Good day now.

-[[ The camera switch back to the interview area in the arena. Maria is gripping the microphone with two hands, look very excited and happy to start her latest interview segment. Trish Stratus and Tomko are on either side of her, and Edge, holding his newly revealed SGW World Heavyweight title. ]]-

[ Maria ] Hiya! It's me, Maria! Right now I'm standing by with the Champion of the ENTIRE WORLD, EDGE!!

-[[ Edge cracks a huge smile, standing directly in front of Tomko. ]]-

[ Maria ] Now Edge, tonight, you beat CM Punk and revealed a new title! How does it make you feel?

[ Edge ] How does it make me feel? What the hell kind of question is that?

[ Maria ] I.. I don't know! :(

-[[ She pouts and Edge shakes it off. ]]-

[ Edge ] Beating CM Punk tonight was no big deal, because it's like this Maria.. Winning is what I do and do best! That's why I'm the damn champion! THAT'S WHY I HAVE THIS TITLE BELT!

-[[ Zoom in on the Rated R World title. ]]-

[ Maria ] It's a cool belt, can I touch it?

[ Edge ] No.

[ Maria ] Oh.

-[[ Maria frowns at Edge's snapping. ]]-

[ Edge ] This is the first ever customized SGW World Heavyweight title. This company has been using the same damn title since day stinkin' one! The old belt was fine and dandy for all the previous champions in the past. Bill Goldberg, Jeff Jarrett, Scott Steiner.. It was good enough for them, because they were second-rate champions, but not me! I NEED MY OWN CUSTOM BELT! BECAUSE I AM A CHAMPION LIKE NEVER BEFORE! I DESERVE TO BE SET APART FROM THE REST OF THE PACK! I AM JUST THAT MUCH BETTER!

-[[ Edge smiles and looks down at his new belt. ]]-

[ Edge ] She's a beaut, isn't she?

-[[ He slaps it with his free hand, readjusting it back on his shoulder. ]]-

[ Maria ] It's very pretty.

[ Edge ] IT'S NOT PRETTY! IT'S MINE! MY TITLE! I AM THE RATED R SUPERSTAR AND THE RATED R CHAMPION!

-[[ Tomko leans in and speaks into the mic casually. ]]-

[ Tyson Tomko ] ..Yep.

[ Maria ] Okay, Edge, let's do it.

-[[ Edge licks his lips, looking very excited. Trish stares right at Maria, obviously pissed. ]]-

[ Edge ] What?

[ Maria ] The main part of the interview.. Let's do it now.

-[[ Edge's disappointed. ]]-

[ Edge ] Oh..

[ Maria ] What were you thinking when I said 'let's do it?'

[ Edge ] Something else, then I realized who I was talking to. Anyway, get to the point, me and Trish have business to attend to.

[ Maria ] The main event for Fallout has been announced, and you don't have to defend your title.. Just who you defend it against.. Which.. Makes winning the WrestleBrawl battle royal meaningless.. And it makes me wonder why there was even a rumble in the first place.. And.. And..

-[[ She huffs and puffs, stomping her foot in submission to thinking this situation over. ]]-

[ Maria ] ..It confuses me.

[ Edge ] Maria, don't sweat it. When I said I guaranteed that I'd be the second World Champion in this incarnation of SGW to make it past the next pay-per-view with the World title, I knew what was going on! I'd beat Raven at Fallout anyway! But the match that was booked.. It's fine with me.

-[[ He pauses. ]]-

[ Edge ] I mean, seriously.. It's Rob Conway and Alex Shelley.

-[[ He shrugs. ]]-

[ Edge ] What's the big deal?

-[[ Before she can answer. ]]-

[ Edge ] THERE ISN'T ONE! NO BIG DEAL! NO SWEAT WHEN YOU'RE ME AND YOU'RE THE CHAMP! I'll gladly tack the days onto my World title reign, no problem with me here! And at Fallout, I'm going to make that pin.. I'm going to be like Babe Ruth, I'm callin' my shot!

-[[ He points out to the open with his right hand, Maria is the only one looking at where he's pointing. ]]-

[ Edge ] Mark it down.. At Fallout, I'm going to pin Rob Conway. And the next month's pay-per-view, when I get to pick the contender to defend against.. I'm going to go ahead and name that person right now.

[ Maria ] Yay~! I got the big scoop over the Franchise!

[ Edge ] At the pay-per-view after Fallout, when I pin Rob Conway.. I'll defend the SGW World Heavyweight title against none other than..

-[[ Milking it.. ]]-

[ Edge ] MR. PERFECT!

[ Maria ] COOL!

-[[ She stops. ]]-

[ Maria ] Wait.. Mr. Perfect's..

[ Edge ] DEAD! HE'S DEAD, MARIA!

[ Maria ] That's no good.

[ Edge ] That's one of the perks of being the champion, Maria! And besides, Perfect's won World titles in countless companies when he was thought to be dead. I mean, c'mon, Curt Hennig's a DEAD ringer to get an SGW World title shot!

-[[ Maria doesn't catch on. ]]-

[ Edge ] ..Because he's dead.. Dead ringer..

[ Maria ] So anyway, Edge, what if Raven or one of the Pulse members makes the pin?

[ Edge ] If they do, Maria..

-[[ Edge stares deep into her eyes, she's almost intimidated. ]]-

[ Edge ] God help us all.

-[[ He finishes. ]]-

[ Edge ] Because with that.. Hell will have frozen over, and we'd all be dead.

[ Maria ] I HOPE THE PULSE DOESN'T WIN THEN!

[ Edge ] No worries, Maria.. The Rated R Champion, he doesn't plan on losing this belt, or a match, any time soon. So you have no worries, neither does Hell of freezing. And that's something you can go ahead an BANK ON!

-[[ Edge goes off camera with Trish and Tomko following him. Maria just stands there looking relieved as the scene fades. ]]-

[ Raven ] What are you doing talking to Hardy!?

-[[ Benoit points at himself. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] HE CAME.. TO ME!!

[ Raven ] What the hell could he have to say to you!?

-[[ Benoit shoves Raven viciously, sending him several feet back. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] Forget that! Where were you when I needed you tonight!?

-[[ Raven doesn't answer him. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] That's what I thought.. Answer that question before you question MY actions, Raven.. I have been there for you every single time you have been attacked.. I've even gone out of my way to save your damn friends that you treat like GARBAGE!!

-[[ Benoit points to himself again. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] But where.. Have you been.. FOR ME!?

-[[ Raven slumps back against the wall and runs his hand through his hair.. ]]-

[ Raven ] What's the meaning of this betrayal, Chris? Are you angry because I accidentally eliminated you from the battle royal last week?

[ Chris Benoit ] I'm not sure it was even an accident now.

-[[ A pause.. ]]-

[ Raven ] Whatever.. Believe whatever bullshit Hardy fed you.. I don't care anymore..

[ Chris Benoit ] What did you want to talk to me about anyway?

[ Raven ] It's not relevant anymore.

-[[ Benoit looks disgusted. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] Fine.. I'm leaving.. I'm not wasting my time with this anymore.

-[[ Benoit turns to leave and Alexis tries to stop him. ]]-

[ Alexis Laree ] Chris.. Just give him some time.. He'll come around--

-[[ Benoit puts his hand up.. ]]-

[ Chris Benoit ] ..I swear I won't tell, eh? Right. Step aside.

-[[ Benoit walks past her and out of the room.. Alexis turns back to Raven.. ]]-

I'm a lover, not a fighter! But Hunter, if I had a World title, I'd gladly defend it against such a hip cat like yourself!

[ Triple H ] Foley, I'm onto you. You're not fooling anyone. I want your title.

[ Dude Love ] You're more than welcome to have a match against me next week.. And if you win, I guess you could get Mick's digits and call him up or something. But a match is all I have to offer.

[ Road Dogg ] Can ya' fix it, bud?

[ William Regal ] I must admit, I am a fan of tag team wrestling and to see the tag team division in Solid Gold Wrestling dwindle away.. Well, that's no good.. So, I'll tell you what.. I'll go ahead and book a tag team match for next week.. Of course, it'll be under the jurisdiction of whoever is running the company next week.. But that's beside the point.. Perhaps your performance will inspire the return of the once great division...

-[[ The office. ]]-

-[[ William Regal is sitting behind the desk with his hands in front of him.. He stares into the screen, into your own eyes and begins speaking in a manner so that you know he means absolute business.. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Greetings, fans of Solid Gold Wrestling..

-[[ The fans pop. ]]-

[ William Regal ] My name is William Regal and I sit here with one more announcement.. My final announcement for the night and possibly my final announcement ever.. And it is because of this, that I am going to make this announcement a good one..

-[[ A pause. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Earlier, Mister Jarrett said that Mister Russo would retain his Director of Authority duties if the new owner, providing it is not Russo himself, saw fit.. But, in that same breath, he said that any ruling the owners of the week made would stand infallible.. And it is this that I am prepared to take great advantage of..

-[[ He clears his throat. ]]-

[ William Regal ] First, I would like to state.. That should I become owner of Solid Gold Wrestling.. Wrestling will become the focus of our televised program and not only will Russo's vision of SGW programming be forgotten, but I will return our weekly program to its roots.. Bringing SHOCK back to the forefront.. No more Stroke.. And certainly, you will have seen the last of.... eff-Vision.

-[[ Another pause as the fans cheer. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Also, I would like to state.. That should I become owner, Vince Russo's duties will no longer be required on staff.. Too long has Solid Gold Wrestling's programming been tainted by constant involvement from staff members who, for the most part, have no business being inside of the ring or anywhere near any facet of this business...

-[[ More cheers. ]]-

[ William Regal ] And now.. For my final announcement.. Vince Russo, earlier tonight, made the announcement that Raven and the world champion, Edge would do battle with Alex Shelley and Rob Conway.. Should Edge make the pin fall, he is allowed to choose his next opponent in a championship match.. Should Raven make the pin fall, he retains his number one contendership.. And finally, should either member of the Pulse make the pin fall, Edge will be forced to defend his championship against both men in a triple threat the following month... I would like to add a stipulation of my own to his match... And that stipulation is.. Should Edge OR Raven make the pin fall in the match, Vince Russo loses his Director of Authority power REGARDLESS of who becomes the new owner!

-[[ Huge pop. ]]-

[ William Regal ] However.. I am not a completely biased official.. This rule goes both ways.. Should Conway or Shelley make the pin fall.. Vince Russo will receive immunity for one calendar year regardless of who becomes the new owner.. However.. Once that year is up, the owner can do with Vince Russo as he pleases!

-[[ Regal smiles. ]]-

[ William Regal ] That is all.

-[[ And then he waves. ]]-

[ William Regal ] Good day, Solid Gold Wrestling.
