DATE: 04/21/2002

[[[- The screen goes black for about 5 seconds as then the nEw logo appears on the screen with a black outline. Suddenly a over-voice is heard as it then says the following... -]]]

Over Voice: Ladies and Gentlemen... The wrestling world has hit rock bottom, and has now entered a new era. For what was considered wrestling, has now been taken to a new level. Forget about Vince McMahon, forget Eric Bischoff, and never mind Ted Turner... This is a new Era to the wrestling world... this is nEw!!!

Now without further adieu... Live from the Staples Center in Las Angeles, California... This is New Era Wrestling... This is Showtime!!

The camera zooms in on his face as he begins to scream at the crowd as the fans try and get a touch of him, as he steps through the ropes and into the ring and begins to speak as the fans show Heyman mixed reactions... -]]]

Paul Heyman: Hello Las Angeles.... Hello Wrestling Fans... welcome to Showtime! Now ladies and Gentlemen... what you're looking at is a new style being brought to you here. You see it was I who was sitting in the back in Stamford, Connecticut... listening to the bull that Vince McMahon was throwing at me. I got sick and tired of day in and day out, saving his ass in the storylines. I got tired of screaming at Vince, telling him to give me a raise, so what did I do... I QUIT THE WWF!!! So what I brought here was two men who have a ungodly amount of money.... two men who have a wallet twice the size of a Vince McMahon... And Jay King and Mike Frost... who were very successful in the past in the defunct SGW... Have re-opened a company.... a new Era of companies... and it is I WHO HAVE THE POWER AS WELL. IT IS I WHO HAVE BEEN NAMED THE NEWEST nEw COMMISSIONER!!!

Sean Mooney: WHAT??! Why?

Paul Heyman: Now incase your wondering... tonight your going to see a jam packed card to open up nEw... and tonight I don't want to take up any time.... but what I do want is for each and every one of you to just listen up, pay attention and take a look at the nEw commissioners newest protégé... the future of wrestling, Mr. NCAA NATIONAL CHAMPION HIMSELF.... BROCK LESNAR!!!

[[[- Suddenly Brock Lesnar's music blasts as he walks out with his huge biceps rippling as the fans are going crazy with the boo's as Heyman stands in the ring and begins to laugh as Brock joins him, in the center of the ring, grunting, snorting and making his huge muscles flex like mad as Heyman begins to speak again... -]]]

Bobby Heenen: That man scares me Mooney!

Sean Mooney: Me too!

Paul Heyman: That's right nEw... no more beating up on the poor defenseless commissioner, because now that I have this man at my side.... no one will stop me from eventually getting full control of nEw, and taking the new Era to heights it will never see without my guidance!

[[[- Just then "Crawling" by Linkin Park plays as out from the back walks Tommy Dreamer of all people to a loud ovation as he steps into the ring and begins to speak... -]]]

Tommy Dreamer: Listen Heyman, I didn't come to nEw to hear an earful of your crap! I came here to do what I do best... and that is get the job done in the ring, make some money and win championships, So Heyman, why don't you do us all a favor and SHUT THE HELL UP.....!!

[[[- From there Lesnar spears Dreamer right in the gut and picks him up and delivers a pump handle slam and slams Dreamer, like he's nothing. Lesnar then picks Dreamer up again and executes a vicious Jackhammer leaving Tommy Dreamer totally knocked out, laying in pain as the EMS immediately runs to the scene and referees run to hold back Lesnar as he has just shocked everyone -]]]

Paul Heyman: SEE DREAMER... YOUR VICTIM NUMBER ONE... AND ANYONE ELSE WHO WANTS TO GET IN MY WAY WILL FEEL THE EXACT SAME PAIN AS YOU, HAHAHAHA!!!

Sean Mooney: That is one sick individual!

Bobby Heenen: You're telling me!

Gangrel can't believe it, as the referee is still having trouble getting back up as Hall gets up and ducks a big boot from Gangrel and kicks him in the gut and sets him up for the RAZORS EDGE!! But Gangrel reverses it, and as Hall gets up, he runs into a mist of blood that Gangrel spit out from the mouth, as Gangrel makes the cover, 1...2...3!!! Gangrel gets the win. Suddenly the lights go out as the RTC logo flashes on the titan Tron as the lights then come back on and Gangrel has a RTC logo across his chest, as he is laid out cold in the center of the mat.... it looks as if Richards and Gangrel have quite a feud brewing early!
