UCW Meltdown – June 11 – Wednesday Night Action Zone

As the opening strains of Guns’ N’ Roses’ Welcome to the Jungle blast from the screen, we are shown brief highlights from last week’s edition of UCW Meltdown. The show began with Jim Cornette and Team 3D addressing the Meltdown crowd, explaining Saturday Night Showdown and booking several matches for tonight, including Rhino & HBK vs. Team 3D, UCW Champion Triple H & Samoa Joe vs. Randy Orton & The Great Khali, for No Remorse the Major Brothers vs. Team 3D, for the Tag Team Championships in a Tables Match. Then as the night progressed, when Rhino & Michaels defeated 3D, Kurt Angle and Jim Cornette addressed them, announcing that they would be facing each other 1-on-1, live on PPV at No Remorse, before a tense stand-off took-place, with HBK soon offering a respectful handshake, but Rhino would decline to a slight outbreak of boos from the confused, split crowd. Homicide and Hernandez then scored 1-on-1 victories over Kendrick & London, respectively, before in the main event Samoa Joe and Randy Orton brawled away, fighting into the crowd leaving Khali and The Game to re-new their PPV hostilities, resulting in the Punjabi Warrior slamming HHH to the canvas with the Khali Bomb, then placing one foot on his chest and earning the dominant, up-set pin-fall victory, placing himself back on the chase for a match against the current UCW Champion.

And with a huge cheer and explosion of pyro as Meltdown goes live to the world, wasting no time we see Jim Cornette making his way down the ramp with a pleased expression on his face, armed with a clip-board in one hand and, as he enters the ring, drawing jeers and hostility from the live crowd while un-accompanied by Team 3D, Cornette impatiently claims a mic and begins to address the Action Zone crowd, saying…“Ladies and gentlemen, if you would be so kind as to allow me some quiet, my voice can only stretch so far and I am in no mood to shout above you people, thank you very much, now…before I get down to the most important issues tonight, an immensely regrettable incident occurred last Friday on Infest to Shane McMahon, suffering a Tombstone Piledriver onto the steel-ring-steps by their newcomer Kane. Now having suffered a similar assault myself, I know what Shane is going through, but as a McMahon he is obviously not made as tough as I am, therefore this week, then indeed for the foreseeable future…the cream will be rising to the top once more, because while Shane recovers UCW Management have asked me to take charge, bringing the unparalleled success I have enjoyed on Meltdown to Friday Night Infest, pending any legal actions that may arise since they need a steady hand to steer things, now although this is a tremendous moment for me…I still have matters to deal with, firstly after last weeks main event, when Randy Orton and Samoa Joe brawled away, fighting into the crowd I had every intention of coming out here to begin this show, by announcing a Saturday Night Showdown Re-Match for No Remorse, live on PPV, between Joe and Randy. However it seems that when our cameras lost sight of them, things became even more physical between Mr. Joe and Mr. Orton, because it seems, at some point, Randy Orton sustained a compound fracture of his left collar bone, meaning that he will be un-able to compete for several months until this break heals, leaving me with a problem for No Remorse. So since Samoa Joe caused this problem, by causing the injury it is only fair that Joe actually suffer the consequences, not I, therefore at No Remorse I am giving Orton the chance to gain a measure of revenge, specifically by choosing an opponent to take his place in a match against Samoa Joe, now given the amount of shock and distress this situation has caused Mr. Orton, earlier today I informed him that there is no need to name Joe’s opponent instantly, rather he has one week to consider things while Joe will meet this man next week. Now on to more pressing matters and, while on the subject of last week’s main event, this leads me to my announcement because, thanks to his crushing, dominant victory, defeating the current UCW Champion again and proving he truly knows no equal, while also proving he deserves the chance to compete for the biggest prize of them all, the richest prize in this industry, please put your hands together to welcome this man, truly a giant in pro-wrestling, the Number One Contender to the UCW Championship and one-half of the Meltdown Main Event for No Remorse, live on PPV June 22, arriving on these shores by way of the Punjab jungles of India, standing 7ft 3” tall, weighing in a 420lbs and by the way, my favourite wrestler on the Meltdown Roster, truly a living legend in his home land and soon to one here too…The Great Khali!!!”  

Then following these words from the Meltdown GM attention turns to the main stage, while the strains of obscure sitar music now resound over the arena sound system and attention turns towards the entrance as The Great Khali strides out through the curtain, without Ranjin Singh but striding out through the curtain with his usual confidence, The Great Khali makes his way imperiously down the entrance ramp towards the ring, pausing at the foot of the ramp and raising his arms above his head, roaring aloud, before using the top rope to pull himself up onto the ring-apron, then with one step, Khali steps easily over the top rope into the ring with Cornette rapidly applauding, while Khali raises his arms above his head again, standing dominant, he roars aloud, drawing boos from the crowd, before the Punjabi Warrior turns his head sideways, looking out into the audience then slowly rubbing his hands together with evil intent, while Cornette steps away and smiles with pride, addressing the hostile crowd again, saying…“Now going into Saturday Night Showdown, there were those with doubts, people who claimed that The Great Khali would freeze on the biggest night of his life, that the Big Match experience of Triple H would see him through, but last week, following another dominant victory, there can be no doubting this man ever again, because not only has he defeated Triple H two times, but surely if nothing else, Saturday Night Showdown proved The Great Khali deserves to be UCW Champion! Because he fought against insurmountable odds, but never taking a step backwards, even with the crowd turning on him to cheer his opponent, this was only motivation, with the jeers driving Khali forwards. Then after a tremendous back and forth battle, when a true champion would have surrendered his title over to a superior challenger, like a coward Triple H used a weapon, he had to take an easy way out to keep the belt, because he knows he cannot defeat The Great Khali on his own. This man is a Giant, this man is un-matched and un-measured by others…he has the physical prowess, allied to the strength, the power, the dominance and the brute force to reign supreme, but unlike our current champion a wrestling ring cannot even hold The Great Khali, because a man like this cannot be contained. Therefore in order to make things fair, allowing the UCW Championship to be defended upon an even playing field and, most of all to ensure that The Great Khali will not be made to become a victim again, this match will be held under specific rules. Now everybody saw what took place, everybody saw the Khali Bomb on Triple H last week, leading to the inevitable 1-2-3, while at the Showdown you all witnessed the Khali Bomb through the announce table, leaving Triple H helpless and beaten…but able to survive due to a small technicality, however at No Remorse that will not be the case because, unlike the Showdown, Triple H will have to do more than score a simple three count to retain the UCW Title, for there will be no flukes and things will not be confined to a battle inside the ring, because not only will this match be…Anything Goes with No DQ and no Count Out, there will be no 1-2-3 either because the only way to win, inside or outside the ring, will be to keep your opponent down for a ten count, rendering him defenceless, helpless, beaten and broken because this match will be LAST MAN STANDING!!! And may I just say that nothing would make me more proud than to crown this man, The Great Khali the new UCW Champion on June 22, live on PPV at No Remorse…”

TO LIVE & DIE IN LAX! But as jeering greets this statement from Jim Cornette, things are interrupted by the sound of three loud gunshots piercing the arena air, drawing cheers from the live crowd as attention turns towards the main stage and, accompanied by the sexy Salinas, Hernandez and Homicide make their entrance, coming down the ramp and pausing at ringside, while Salinas grinds her sexy body, Cornette becomes angry as Khali turns his head to observe the arrival of the LAX, before Homicide then claims a mic from the ring-attendant and rolls into the ring, followed closely by Hernandez who now holds the ropes open for Salinas to enter, while Homicide pauses again once inside to make an LAX hand signal to the crowd, saying…“Orale Mr. Cornette, we are sorry to interrupt your business with Khali, but, listen closely because LAX have got our own business with you, so listen real good, now myself and Hernandez have been waiting real patiently since Immortality, vato, but now our patience has run out. You see we want our Re-Match with Team 3D, essay and we want our tag team titles back. So after the Tables Match at No Remorse, tell your boys to be prepared because LAX are gonna bring back Guerrilla Warfare, we’re gonna take it back to the streets and we’re gonna bring the Revolution home, because the system can’t hold us down with a nation of millions fighting on our side! Now week after week we have beaten London & Kendrick, week after week vato, now there are no more ways to keep us from your boys, so give us want we want…” But with Cornette looking more angry, while Khali stands ominously behind the GM, Hernandez now stands behind Homicide who now squares up to the Meltdown GM, but Cornette says…“Homicide, I can appreciate where you’re coming from, however, right now I am not in the right frame of mind to go making promises left and right, especially since you have failed to mention one thing. You may have beaten London, you may have beaten Kendrick, in 1-on-1 matches but the last time you met as a team, they beat you but now that I think about it maybe we can help each other out, tonight, because with The Great Khali in such fine form of late he needs decent competition, ahead of No Remorse…so with the Undertaker gone and no other worthy candidates, you might could do me a favour. I will grant you boys a No.1 Contenders Match, against London & Kendrick next week…but tonight one of you must make a choice, to decide which of you is most capable and best equipped to prove his worth to me, inside this very ring tonight by facing The Great Khali, 1-on-1…do we have a deal?” Then Homicide says…“You got a deal, homes, but you might just regret this one, because who ever we choose…We ain’t gonna go easy on your boy here, not tonight, but win or lose Khali will know he was in a fight…To Live & Die in LAX, Brrrrra!!!” Then as Cornette steps out of the way, Khali and Homicide square-up to each other, with Khali raising his arms above his head and roaring aloud, to intimidate Homicide, only for the Notorious 187 to connect with a solid right to the mid-section of Khali, before the Giant places his big right hand on the head of Homicide, covering his face, then shoving the 187 to the ground and instantly provoking Hernandez to advance, lunging forward and aggressively shoving Khali, staggering him back on his heels, then when both Big Men square-up to each other Cornette quickly gets between them, encouraging Khali to back away. While Salinas does the same for Big Hernandez, Cornette says…“OK, ok…that’s enough for now…you have time to make the choice, but Hernandez or Homicide will face The Great Khali tonight in our main event, thank you gentlemen, thank you but that is all, Mr. Khali will see one of you later…” And when Homicide gets back to his feet, all three LAX members now leave the ring, while Cornette continues to calm down Khali, with the Punjabi Giant standing tall, and at ringside Hernandez turns to lock eyes with the 7ft 3” tall, 420lbs Warrior, towering over the GM in the ring as the crowd settles back down and LAX leaves, while we now join JR & King at ringside after this exciting start to the show tonight. 

And at ringside with Cornette and The Great Khali slowly leaving the ring to jeers, while JR & King begin to welcome viewers back to the Action Zone with JR, saying…“Well now King, we had heard the Jim Cornette planned some huge news, but we did not expect that…now on June 22, live and only on PPV at No Remorse, once again The Great Khali will meet Triple H for the UCW Championship, 1-on-1, but now it will be under Last Man Standing rules…can you imagine for one moment, what kind of effort it will take to keep that 7ft 3” tall, 420lbs Giant down for that long, 10 seconds, a referee count of 10…King, I do not have a pleasant feeling about this!” Then King says…“Well like the GM said, the ring is not big enough to contain Khali, therefore in this match they can fight anywhere they please, all over the building, outside into the street…into the crowd, until we have a winner…and a true champion, because if Triple H can survive this then no one can doubt his claims to the title, but, should The Great Khali be able to capture the prize this time, he will have earned it...” JR says…“And rightfully so King because that’s the way it should be, but moving on, The Great Khali will be competing tonight against one member of the LAX tag team, while we have yet to get any word on the whereabouts of The Game, Triple H, but, following that news we will endeavour to keep you all informed when he arrives. Now also coming-up tonight, with the controversial match-up made just last week, tonight Rhino & Shawn Michaels will meet in a face-off in that very ring, tonight, ahead of their meeting at No Remorse…with the chance to air any issues they have, plus their thoughts on being pushed together by the GM Jim Cornette and Kurt Angle, while also tonight sees the return to action of No.1 Contenders, the Major Brothers, preparing to face Team 3D for the Tag Team Titles in a daunting Tables Match, coming-up at No Remorse. But King, I’m just getting word from the backstage area, that JB has news concerning at shocking arrival, no it can’t be…The Animal Batista, the Infest World Heavyweight Champion, here tonight in the Action Zone, but why?” King says…“Well JR, I’m sure we will find out right after this, our opening match…”

MATCH 1

Samoa Joe vs. Trevor Murdock

JOE’S GONNA KILL YOU! The familiar entrance music of Samoa Joe then sounds, bringing a huge cheer from the sold-out live crowd, with Murdock waiting in the ring, before the Samoan Submission Machine himself now gradually comes out into view, slowly making his way through the curtain with an intense expression upon his face, while the crowd chant…“JOE…JOE…JOE…JOE!” as Joe pauses on top of the ramp, running his thumb across his throat and acknowledging the loud roar from the crowd, before quickly marching down the ramp and handing his towel to the ring-attendant while the ref keeps Murdock restrained as Joe now enters the ring, without hesitation, stepping-up to confront the Texas Big Man, before the official now calls for the bell. Then as both men lock-up, following an initial test-of-strength, Murdock prevails, shoving Joe back on his heels, before yelling with a failed attempt at intimidation and, when the pair lock-up again, Joe quickly pushes Murdock off and goes behind him, locking-in a waist-lock only for the Texan to connect with a wild back elbow and, with Joe caught off-guard and staggering back, Murdock follows up with a stiff knee, backing Joe into the ropes and then sending him across the ring and into the far ropes. But, as Joe careens back off the ropes and Murdock stands in the centre of the ring, momentum carries the Samoan Submission Machine into the rough, tough Texan, causing Murdock to rock backwards following an aggressive running-shoulder block. Joe then quickly turns and hits the ropes again and as Murdock now charges forwards, exploding with intense aggression, Joe is caught off-guard as Murdock connects, sending Joe down with a devastating Big Boot. The tough Texan takes advantage, beating down on Joe and scoring several near falls, before Joe mounts a fight back, breaking out of a strength-sapping Bear Hug, hitting the ropes away on the near side. Murdock then steps forwards again, but Joe ducks and hits the ropes for momentum, then launches into a high flying knee taking Murdock down and energizing the crowd, before the Big Texan staggers quickly to his feet and Joe grounds him time & again, following a succession of stiff clotheslines. Joe then begins to drag Murdock back up, but gets caught with some solid right hands to the mid-section, doubling him over, then as Murdock looks to take advantage by turning to hit the ropes for momentum, but when he charges forwards, Joe quickly recovers and takes a step toward Murdock, countering his charge with a patented Snap Slam, taking the tough Texan back down. Then as Joe springs to his feet, running his thumb across his throat, he drops down, before making the cover but with time to recover, Murdock kicks out on a 2-count, clearly frustrating Samoa Joe. Joe then drags Murdock up once again, taking his time, delivering an Atomic Drop before hitting the ropes and connecting with a dropkick, taking Murdock down then getting to his feet and delivering a sin-ton backsplash, making another cover, only for Murdock to break it again, kicking out on a 2-count. And Joe then slowly drags the Big Texan to his feet clamping his arms on his throat, locking-in the Kokina Clutch, then dropping to the canvas and grave-vining the body, while Murdock tries to resist the effects with Joe pulling and twisting upon his throat, before the pain becomes too much and as the rough, tough Texan frantically taps out, eventually the ref calls for the bell and awards victory to Samoa Joe via submission. Then when Joe breaks the hold and Murdock slowly rolls away to ringside to recover, the referee raises Joe’s hand in victory as the Samoan Submission Machine stands, however following the official decision, Samoa Joe quickly shoves the referee aside, before calling for a mic from the attendant and with a face grimaced with intensity, saying…“ORTON!!! Injured or not, last week you got what you deserved from me, but it was not enough to satisfy me. So who ever you choose to face me on June 22, rest assured that man will be a lamb to the slaughter…that man will be in your image, for I will do to him, what I wish to do to you…and Inevitably, He Will Be Broken!” And following cheers from the live crowd, Samoa Joe slam his mic onto the canvas, then stepping through the ropes and snatching his towel back from the ring-attendant, marches back up the ramp, only pausing to turn and acknowledge the cheering crowd, running his thumb across his throat and then heading back through the curtain and, with questions surrounding who Orton with choose to face Samoa Joe at No Remorse, the Samoan Submission Machine makes a statement with victory, while we cut away.

Backstage we then join Crystal Louthan with the Brian & Brett, the Major Brothers, saying…“Now guys, last week when Jim Cornette gave you the night off to prepare, he also announced that at No Remorse your shot at the UCW Tag Team Champions, Team 3D would now be a Tables Match. Having faced Team 3D several times before, having defeated them in regular competition, in Six Man Matches and a Retribution, when you seemingly had those titles won, only to be robbed by an intentional DQ, now once again you have the odds stacked against you in Team 3D’s signature match, but with Brother Devine also a factor…What if any, do you think your chances are?” Brian says…“Well, firstly Crystal, last week we did not have the night off to prepare, Jim Cornette suspended me & my brother so we couldn’t interrupt his announcement, now tonight we aim to make a statement that you can place us in any type of match, any type of situation possible, but the Major Brothers always rise to the top somehow, some-way…so Team 3D, Bubba, Devon, Devine…when the titles are on-the-line, there will be No Remorse, there will be no forgiveness and there will be no tomorrow, you see we live for this business…and we do not plan on anything but success and, now if that means we’ll have to give you a taste of your own medicine to achieve that, if we’ve gotta slam you boys through a table to realise our dreams…then so be it!!!” Brett says…“Now Jim Cornette, we didn’t ask for this chance, but we have earned it, now if UCW Management feel we deserve it then we will grab it with both hands, hold on tight and never let go…because chances like this don’t come along everyday, the chance to make history, to be the Tag Team Champions and to end the 3D era, because Bubba, Devon…that’s what this means, we may never get another chance, this could be it for us. So as much as you love holding those UCW Tag Team Titles; it’ll mean that much more to take them away from you…In your very own match!!!” The brothers then high-5 each other and head off towards the ring as we cut away.

Elsewhere we now join JB outside the door to the office of the GM Jim Cornette, saying…“Right now I am here, outside the office of Meltdown GM Jim Cornette, waiting to hear from the surprising visitor to the Action Zone tonight, from Infest, their World Heavyweight Champion, The Animal Batista. Why is The Animal here? What business does he have on Meltdown? What business does he have with the GM, here tonight that is so urgent? Well, I hope to answer those questions and more, in…” But at that moment the door to the office opens and we see Melina holding it open, while Cornette’s voice can clearly be heard thanking her, then addressing Batista, saying…“Now Dave, I appreciate you coming to see me in person and as a man, but, while I cannot promise anything, I’ll certainly take your request under advisement…” Then as the camera comes closer, we now see Batista stepping out into the doorway, briefly kissing Melina on the cheap, dressed in a custom-made suit and sunglasses, with the World Heavyweight Championship belt slung proudly over his shoulder, saying…“Well I appreciate you taking the time to see me and I’ll see you Friday…” And when The Animal steps out into the hallway, with the door closed behind him, JB now approaches with excitement, but before a question can be asked of Batista, from down the hallway we hear the obnoxious voice of Brother Ray, calling out, saying…“Well, well, well, just look at what we have here…Devon get a close look, look what the garbage man left behind, the man who got sent away to the Asylum!” Then as the camera pans around we see Brother Ray, Devon and Brother Devine, approaching JB and, with Devine holding both tag team title belts on his shoulders, Batista ushers Borash away before stepping along the line of all three 3D members, confronting first Brother Devine who stands proudly with both tag team titles, compared to Batista’s one belt as The Animal simply shakes his head in amusement. Then Batista squares up to Devon, with neither man blinking, or moving an inch, before Batista steps towards Brother Ray, standing eye-to-eye with Bubba and, saying…“Well now, I always thought there were only ever two Brother’s Grimm, but, I guess the Girl Scouts were having a bake sale, so you all came here to buy lunch…” Then Bubba says…“Ha, ha, ha, that’s real cute Dave, you are a real funny guy, really, but you can’t hide the fact that you ran away to Infest because you can’t cut it here, you can’t hang with the big dogs and you had to jump ship. Just like Christian Cage, just like Sting and just like Tomko…All you are is a low down dirty deserter, Dave, face facts only scum like you would jump ship, people like you with no back-bone, because you see, with Team 3D around…Meltdown has become our play ground, Meltdown is our back yard and no one from Infest can come in here and change that, nobody from Infest can cut it over here…so go back to your small protected world, but if you ever want any real competition…You know where to find us, Big Man…” Then Batista says…“Well now Bubba, it seems to me your mouth it writing checks, your body can’t cash, but if you really wanna make a big issue outta this with me, there is always an open invitation to try me…all year round, on Friday night Infest, live in the Asylum. So why don’t you have a word with your good buddy the GM, then see if he can make it happen…because I’ll take you on whenever you like!!!” Then as Batista turns away, smiling to himself, Bubba makes a move towards him, only for Devon to hold him back, while Batista can be seen leaving the building, Devon says…“Not right now my brother, we have more important things at hand!” And with Bubba looking frustrated and Devon calming him down, we cut away.    

MATCH 2

Major Brothers vs. World’s Greatest Tag Team

WATCH OUT FOR THE BOMBFALL! And with both teams now having entered, before the bell can ring proceedings are soon interrupted by the arrival of Team 3D, making their way down the ramp, smiling broadly and mocking the Major Brothers, with the UCW Tag Team Championship Belts strapped tight around their waists, pausing briefly on the main stage and making ‘3D’ hand signals above their heads, before slowly making their way down the entry ramp, with the crowd booing loudly. Meanwhile as Brett & Brian Major are distracted, Haas & Benjamin attack quickly, taking the chance to gain an early advantage by jump-starting things in this match-up, as the referee soon calls for the bell, with Team 3D sitting down at the announce desk, while Haas & Benjamin begin with great momentum against the young Majors, backing up Brian and Brett. But after a fast start to the match, the Majors fight back, re-gaining an early advantage and turning things around on their arrogant opponents, utilising several quick arm-drags and dropkicks, before finally settling things down, when Brett uses a deep arm-drag on Shelton and grounds him into a stiff arm-bar. However as the match wears on and World’s Greatest Tag Team begin to fight back, the Major’s are caught out of place as Benjamin & Haas combine for a double-team, cutting of Brian and gaining the advantage, as the crowd reacts with disdain at this. But, as Haas and Benjamin retain the advantage, utilising frequent tags at all times, on commentary amid several negative remarks from Team 3D, JR begins to comment, saying…“Bubba, Devon, obviously you are out here to scout the Major Brothers, ahead of your meeting at No Remorse for the tag team titles in a Tables Match, but, given your recent history is it possible that the Majors may just have your number?” But Brother Ray says…“JR, are you forgetting who pays your wages around here, Brother Cornette is our boss and yours…I doubt he’d be happy with your comments, but regardless of that…take a look around my waist, take a look round Devon’s waist, these are OUR Tag Team Titles and we ain’t losing them to anybody on Meltdown, least of all a couple of no talent, high flying beach bums…in our own special match, so unless you want we to slap the taste outta your mouth like I would have to Batista, why don’t you get back to calling this match before I smack the look off your face?” Eventually a miner miscommunication allows Brett Major to scramble for a hot-tag, bringing a fired-up Brian in to the action as he now cleans house with authority, taking both Haas and Benjamin down in quick succession, gaining a few near falls. Then as Benjamin and Haas look to manipulate the referee, the official is distracted, when Brett Major now has a cover on Haas, leaving the crowd totally frustrated, before World’s Greatest Tag Team now re-gain control, but as they look to finish, Haas enters for a double-team when Brian Major charges into the ring and connects, sending both men over the top rope with a clothesline, as Benjamin has Brett down. Then as Shelton climbs to the top rope, looking for a flying cross body off the top, Brett stands as Benjamin launches into the air, taking the young Major down again, only for Brett to roll through on the subsequent cover, hooking the tights as well, before Shelton kicks out. Then as both men spring to their feet, Brett acts quickly, catching Shelton with a kick to the mid-section, followed by a brutal Frantic DDT, dropping Benjamin on his head, then rolling over onto his back to catch his breath, only to see Charlie Haas staggers to his feet and onto the apron. As Brett now stands, quickly charging to the ropes and blasting Haas back down to the floor at ringside, then stepping through the rope and climbing to the top of the nearest turnbuckle-post, then waiting as Brian Major gets to his feet on the outside and gets onto the apron, then also climbs to the opposite turnbuckle. And with Benjamin still flat on his back, Brett comes flying off the top with a high Leg Drop, crashing down onto Shelton, before Brian then follows suit, flying off the top and crashing down on Benjamin too, repeating the dose with a tandem double-team move they call the Major After Shock, with Charlie Haas down at ringside and the live crowd coming unhinged with cheers, while in the ring, Brett Major as the legal man hurriedly lunges with both arms to cover Benjamin, hooking both legs for the cover as the referee now makes the count, 1……2……3! The match referee then raises the hands of both Brett & Brian Major, as the Major’s now celebrate, while Haas attempts to clear his head down at ringside, as Shelton remains on the canvas, with Brett & Brian showing their appreciation, giving the crowd an energetic salute for all their electric support, celebrating victory, earning the respect of the crowd and JR & King on commentary, on this night and, receiving another ovation from the fans as the Major Brothers both stand in triumph, but with Brian & Brett giving the crowd an energetic salute for all the electric support, following a successful match ahead of the No Remorse PPV, having been victorious, while JR looks to his left and sees Brother Ray & Devon leaving the announce desk, before currently crouching bellow the surface of the ring-apron, out of sight of the ref. And when the Majors now stand with their arms raised in the ring, Team 3D enter, coming from behind Brian & Brett and nailing them both in the back of the head, sending them down with clubbing blows as their celebrations are now cut short. Brother Ray then begins to put the boots to Brian, as Devon drags Brett to his feet before Brother Ray then buries his fist into Brett’s gut, winding the youngster and, with the crowd looking on with dread, Team 3D then send Brett into the far ropes before taking him down with their patented 3D finishing move, leaving him prone. And turning their attention towards Brian, as Team 3D now get back to their feet, Brother Ray smiles and turns to his brother, yelling…“Devon…GET THE TABLES!” And, while Devon rolls to the outside, claiming a folding table from under the ring, Brother Ray continues to put the boots to Brian Major, as Devon now re-enters and both men help to set-up the table and drag the fallen Brian to his feet, sending him off into the far ropes and then lifting him up and bringing him down through the table, using the patented 3D finishing move, shattering the table with Brian’s battered body. And now, with both Major’s lying motionless on the mat, amid the shards of wood, Brother Ray and Brother Devon stand tall and proud on either side of the carnage, while jeers can be heard throughout the arena crowd, as more boos now rain down, although Ray & Devon continue to milk the moment, raising their hands high above, making the ‘3D’ signal before sharing a high-5 and smiling before exiting the ring, aggressively un-strapping the UCW Tag Team Title Belts from around their waists, raising them high above their heads and parading away, back up the entrance ramp, basking in the destruction of the Major Brothers here tonight ahead of No Remorse, before finally Team 3D pause on the top of the stage, smiling broadly as we cut away.

Backstage we now re-join JB with London & Kendrick, currently standing in shock, saying…“Well now JR, I’m standing here with Brian Kendrick & Paul London, having just witnessed the carnage that has taken place in the ring by Team 3D and, boys after your recent involvements with the LAX, including a tag team victory, finally next week will see the Re-Match. But also an unexpected opportunity because, that match will be a No.1 Contenders match for the UCW Tag Team Championships, with the winners facing the champions, whoever that might be, at some point in time, following No Remorse. Gentlemen what are your thoughts and assuming you win, who would you rather face, the Majors Brothers or current champions, Team 3D?” Then London says…“Well JB, to be honest we are just glad to have the opportunity, glad to be in the title hunt and we don’t really mind who we face for those titles, because it’ll be a tough match no matter what. But we just need to focus on LAX, because if we look past them we won’t get very far, they are the former champions, they deserve our respect and we’ll have to be at our best to get past them next week!” And Kendrick says…“I agree with my partner, but honestly after what we just saw, after the way Team 3D have been acting recently, the way they have been bullies, insulting people, attacking people we respect like Shawn Michaels and Triple H, people like the Major Brothers who deserve better…then coming-up at No Remorse, I’d like to see the Majors get the titles away from 3D, to give the belts some honour, then maybe we can face the Majors for the gold…and tear the house down with them, because at least then we’d know, one-way-or-another…it would be a fair fight, JB!!!” And with that as London seems to agree with Kendrick’s harsh words, we cut away.

We are then shown a promotional vignette beginning with a series of armed robberies, then when two young black men are arrested for the crimes, taken away in handcuffs, bundled into a police car and taken to the station where they have mug shots taken, the men look familiar, with the smaller of them wearing a baseball cap & gold teeth, while the other is much taller and stronger. They are then taken to a witness line-up, where they are not identified to the amazement of the police officer standing close by, while the two men smile and high-5 themselves before promptly leaving the studio, then when they leave the police station they are about to walk away down the street, only to catch sight of an empty car parked outside. The big man then keeps look-out, while the smaller man picks the lock, before breaking in and hot-wiring the vehicle, while they both jump in. The car then speeds into the distance as the owner returns, shaking his fists and kicking up some dirt in his frustration as the car disappears, heading into the distance as the following voice-over begins, while the picture freezes, saying…“Six months ago two men promptly vanished from the UCW Action Zone, known to the world as Shad Gaspard and JTG, they are both considered dangerous, while today they are rumoured to survive as soldiers of fortune, preying on the weak, living on their wits and the fruit of the land, lying low on the run from the authorities, hustling to stay free and out of jail. But when a recent attempt to imprison them failed, now they are free to go and ready to return…If you have a safe no one else can crack, if there are valuables to be found…and if the police are nowhere in sight, then maybe, just maybe, you may be hearing from Cryme Tyme, coming straight outta Brooklyn!” And then as the picture on screen begins to move again, with the car speeding away, the footage gradually now fades to black with an on-screen caption scrolling across, reading…“Shad Gaspard…JTG…Cryme Tyme…Returning to Meltdown…Soon…”

And as the camera shot widens, we now join JB standing in the ring, a mic in hand, saying…“Ladies and gentlemen, with No Remorse fast approaching in 10 days time, now I would like to turn your attention towards the shocking announcement last week, made by Kurt Angle with the blessing of Meltdown General Manager, Jim Cornette, that for the first time ever…June 22, live & exclusive on PPV at No Remorse, 1-on-1, it will be the War Machine Rhino vs. the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels, but now, following their tense stand-off moments after the match was made last week, tonight, both men will now have the chance to meet face-to-face, address you and each other, setting the record straight on the situation and their mind-set ahead of No Remorse…”

I’M JUST A SEXY BOY! As the crowd suddenly erupt with applause at his entrance, Shawn Michaels comes through the curtain wearing casual jeans and an official ‘Meltdown Showstopper’ T-shirt along with a white Cowboy Hat, smiling broadly, the Heartbreak Kid makes his way down the ramp with his usual energetic charisma, playing to the crowd seated by the aisle-way, while JB looks on with admiration, before HBK drops to his knees to perform his famous pose with the crowd going wild, then following his famous pyro display, Michaels climbs up onto the ring apron and, after looking directly into the camera lens, before slowly stepping through the ropes, quickly turning and greeting JB with a few brief words, a smile and a firm handshake, Michaels then steps away and stands back as attention turns toward the main stage…

WAR! And as the anticipation builds with Michaels and the crowd waiting patiently, suddenly there is a tremendous noise over the arena sound system, shocking HBK, before the live crowd roars with approval when Rhino makes his way into view, coming through the curtain onto the main stage, dressed and ready to compete now, HBK seems un-easy as the intense War Machine raises his arms above his head, before beating his chest with desire and then turning to lock eyes with Michaels, pointing at the proclaimed Showstopper and then aggressively beating his chest again, while marching down the ramp. And with Rhino making his way towards the ring, Shawn backs away, allowing the Man Beast enough space to enter between the ropes, before Rhino climbs the nearest turnbuckle and again raises his arms above his head, yelling…“Who’s the man?” the War Machine then turns to look directly at Michaels, before dropping back to the canvas on his feet and stepping forwards towards him, coming face-to-face with the Heartbreak Kid while the crowd cheers for this moment, with Rhino confronting Michaels. But with the atmosphere between the two building, while HBK is the first to back away again, JB eventually begins to break the tension, saying…“Shawn, last week we were all shocked when the match was announced, but, after a while you were the first man to make a move, but instead of a cheap shot, which many might’ve expected, you extended your hand to Rhino, but were rejected, then soon after that, when Rhino left the ring and made his exit, what did you think?” And with Michaels removing his Cowboy Hat and handing it to the ring-attendant, slowly he brushes his hair away from his face, before taking a moment to think, saying…“Well first of all I want to address you JB, for using the phrase ‘cheap shot’, because old HBK may indeed be a lot of things but cheap surely ain’t one of them, now with that being said…allow me to cast your mind back a little over a month, when I sat down with you to talk about Sting. Now on that occasion I did indeed say, given the chance, that I would take any advantage I could, any-time and any-place, but while nothing has changed for Shawn Michaels…allow me to clarify something, because just like I did with the Stinger…if I have any plans to take somebody down, I’ll be sure to let them know about it first, then everything after that…is fair game, so, Rhino last week I offered to shake your hand like a man, I tried to rise above things, but since you rejected my offer…You’ve been warned, everything is now fair game, however I’ll warn you once more…do not turn your back on HBK, because if you do, I will not hesitate to gain myself an advantage…whether anyone else likes it or not…” Then as the crowd begin to jeer slightly, Michaels gestures towards the War Machine, before Rhino steps forward again and standing face-to-face with the Showstopper, saying…“Well JB, I’m glad that my opponent is able to explain himself so easily, because the last time I checked we were tag team partners, we were working together, then suddenly we are matched against each other by Kurt Angle and Jim Cornette, because they want us to destroy each other. But where I come from, how I was raised, that’s not how things are done, you don’t stand side-by-side somebody one minute, then simply turn on him the next…so when I saw Shawn make a move towards me, my instincts told me to react, to meet fire-with-fire and strike first and strike hardest, but my mind told me different…my mind told me to give him the benefit of the doubt, then when he extended his hand…I didn’t know what to think JB, so I had to leave, because now that I have to fight this man, he cannot be anything but an opponent, nothing more than an obstacle…he can have no name, no face, no meaning to me, therefore although I respect you Shawn Michaels, I respect who you are, your ability, all you have achieved…from this moment on all I see stood before me is a shadow, the shadow of a victim, a target and when the time comes I will simply run you down, tear you apart and break you in half, with No Remorse…because that is what I do!!!”  

But as Rhino is then cut off in mid-sentence, suddenly the arena lights dim down, signalling the arrival of Kurt Angle as attention now turns towards the main entrance, we hear the beginnings of some really intense music playing over the sound system, before a dark silhouetted figure rises on a platform from below the Action Zone stage, with a hood covering his head, then as the crowd begins to jeer as he steps forwards, wearing a dark blue USA tracksuit and hooded top emblazoned by yellow flames, Kurt now begins to advance onto the stage, with a look of intense focus on his face, claiming a mic from his back pocket, before becoming slightly more relaxed, then, with the crowd jeering and Michaels & Rhino both looking increasingly frustrated, while Angle waits for the jeering from the crowd to fade away, he begins to speak, saying…“Although I’m truly sorry to interrupt this fascinating line of questioning JB, I just spoke with Jim Cornette and he has given me permission to take your place, so, would you please leave the ring now and allow me to continue the interview, alone...” And with a broad smile spreading across his face, Kurt quickly gestures towards JB, ushering him to exit the ring, leaving HBK & Rhino alone and Kurt on the ramp, Borash frowns and covers the mic, mouthing something to HBK unheard by all, before handing him the mic and leaving the ring, making his way back up the ramp, passing by Kurt on his way, heading through the curtain and leaving Angle alone, saying…“Ok, now that we’re alone, lets get down to business, shall we, because…” But before Kurt can continue, in the ring Rhino snatches the mic away from HBK, saying…“I don’t think that anyone here wants to hear anything you have to say Kurt, so why don’t you stay out of this because you have already done enough damage?” But Angle says…“Oh really, is that true Rhino, because I happen to disagree there, since earlier today I heard that Shawn Michaels, the man you say that you respect, doesn’t respect you. He was telling people you are simply a ‘one move wonder’ and nothing more that a brawler, so all he has to do is hit you with Sweet Chin Music, because since you’re not much of a wrestler…you won’t be able to block the kick!” Then when Kurt says this, Rhino turns to confront Michaels, mouthing something, before saying…“Is that true Shawn, because if so we can do it right here, right now?” But with Rhino becoming incensed by Angle’s claims, Michaels mouths something, before claiming his own mic from the ring-attendant and addressing Rhino & Kurt, saying…“Just calm down, ok, I didn’t really say that…Well, actually I guess I did, but I didn’t mean it…What I meant was I need to be quick, I need to avoid the gore, then counter your power moves with ground-based wrestling to combat your size, taking advantage of our obviously clash in styles, but I don’t think it will be easy…” Then as Rhino begins to calm down, looking down from the ramp Angle now scoffs, saying…“Give me a break, Rhino are you really gonna listen to this from that guy, come on, seriously, that’s Shawn Michaels, he will say anything to protect himself, anything to take the heat away from him…You can’t trust a guy like him, not at all, because if you could he would trust you, wouldn’t he? But clearly he doesn’t, Rhino, because only last month when he was asked to choose a random tag team partner, instead of choosing you he chose his good buddy Triple H, then what’s even worse, he said he could not imagine teaming-up with anybody else…anybody what so ever, now excuse me if I’m wrong but that includes everyone, that even includes you, so, Rhino, don’t be fooled by this man…You can’t trust Shawn Michaels, no one can…” But Rhino then looks at Michaels, then turns back towards Angle stood on the ramp, saying…“I may not be able to trust Shawn Michaels, but at least I can respect him, unlike you Kurt, because unlike you Shawn is not afraid to stand inside this ring, Shawn is not afraid to be a man and Shawn is willing to face me at No Remorse, but, when I am done and finished with him, when I have drilled through Shawn Michaels, when I have done what I set out to at No Remorse…Kurt, I’m coming back for you!” Then with Angle looking slightly more worried, with Rhino locking his eyes on Kurt, while over his shoulder we can see Michaels hovering with intent behind Rhino, standing with a devious look on his face, then beginning to stamp his foot on the mat, starting to tune-up the band, then as Rhino turns around Michaels now steps forward, causing the Man Beast to flinch briefly as the crowd expect to see Sweet Chin Music, only for HBK to pull back, stopping in his tracks as Rhino scowls and Shawn shrugs, before coming face-to-face with Rhino and mouthing the words…“That’s all I need, just one chance, at any time…” Before Shawn then slowly backs away from Rhino, saying…“I told you big man, just like I told Sting, just like I have told everyone, don’t turn your back on me and never underestimate HBK. I’ve made an entire career, out of being underestimated, so-much-so that one day in the wrestling hall of fame, there may even be an entire wing devoted to people who have underestimated HBK, but they all paid the price one way or another. Now this match was not my idea, but, come No Remorse I will give it everything I have, so you Rhino, had better be ready, now Kurt Angle…from now on I suggest you stay away from me and this situation, that is unless you wanna taste my right boot, because if you choose to get involved, then after No Remorse when I get done with Rhino…I’ll be coming after you, Kurt!” And as the crowd cheers, with these words HBK turns towards the entrance ramp, locking eyes with Angle while Rhino remains behind Shawn in the centre of the ring, crouching low on the canvas and stalking the Showstopper, seemingly without intent, but when Michaels begins to turn around and step back towards the centre of the ring, suddenly the War Machine charges forward, leaving HBK defenceless and off-guard as Rhino suddenly connects firmly in the mid-section with a brutal, unforgiving Gore! And as shock slowly begins to engulf the Action Zone, following Rhino’s actions, Rhino quickly gets to his feet, with Shawn lying in a crumpled heap down on the mat, saying…“Two can play at that game Shawn Michaels, but I always play the hardest, because just like they say…War Is Hell…now, Kurt Angle I don’t blame you for this, I don’t blame you for making this match, but I do blame you for being too gutless, scared and afraid to face me. I don’t wanna fight Shawn Michaels, I wanna fight you, after I take HBK to WAR, after I break him in half again, I will show No Remorse, because I want YOU Kurt Angle and I will break you, with a Gore, Gore…GORE!!!” And with HBK lying flat on his back in the ring, Angle gets a wide-eye look of fear, before backing away while Rhino climbs to the top of the nearest turnbuckle-post, raising his arms above his head and before we cut away, yelling…“Who’s the man?”

Backstage we now re-join Crystal Louthan with LAX, Homicide and Hernandez, accompanied by the very sexy Salinas, while Crystal begins to address them all, saying…“LAX, earlier tonight you confronted Jim Cornette with a set of demands, you want your Re-Match for the Tag Team Titles and you’re tired of the excuses, and tired of being held down…Well now you have been granted that very opportunity, because next week you face London & Kendrick in a No.1 Contender tag team match, but tonight one of you must face The Great Khali…So, who is it gonna be tonight?” Homicide then says…“Orale mamacita tonight is the night for the Big Man, vato, tonight is the night for Hernandez to show his power, show his size and strength, because Hernandez is the heart of LAX. Then next week, London and Kendrick, you’re gonna wish you never got this chance…you’re gonna wish you never met us, because it’s gonna be tough, it’s gonna be a fight and it’s gonna be Guerrilla Warfare, then when it’s all over you will know you are only two boys in a real man’s world, Orale vato…London and Kendrick…To Live and Die in LAX…Brrrrra…Brrrrra!!!” And as Homicide makes an LAX hand signal into the camera, stepping off-screen, Hernandez then nods towards the screen and also makes his own LAX hand signal, before stepping in front of Crystal and blocking her view, then following Homicide, before Salinas blows a kiss into the screen and when LAX depart, we then cut away.

MAIN EVENT

The Great Khali vs. Hernandez w/ Salinas & Homicide

With the strains of obscure sitar music now resounding over the arena sound system, attention turns towards the entrance as the Great Khali strides out through the curtain, making his way imperiously down the ramp, with Hernandez waiting inside the ring, then as the crowd watches in awe, Khali steps onto the apron and over the top rope, with Homicide and Salinas watching speechlessly from the opposite side of the ring, while Hernandez meets Khali in the centre of the ring. Khali towers over Hernandez, before both big men engage in a surprising collar-and-elbow tie-up, to begin things. However, after a brief struggle, Khali quickly asserts himself and, showing his power, aggressively shoves Hernandez back on his heels, with the LAX man staggering back. Then, as Khali advances swinging wildly at Hernandez, the Big Man is quick to duck, avoiding Khali’s huge fist before connecting with a stiff kick to the mid-section, winding Khali and then following-up with a HUGE right hand of his own to the jaw. And with Khali stunned, Hernandez now turns and hits the ropes to build momentum, only for Khali to step forward to counter, hitting Hernandez with a firm shoulder, again staggering him back on his heels. But with Hernandez seemingly over matched, when he steps forwards again, Khali swings as Hernandez ducks again to avoid him, then connects again with a solid kick to the gut, followed by another firm right hand. But when Hernandez looks to build on his offence, backing Khali into the ropes, Khali over-powers him and reverses Hernandez across the ring, into the far ropes, before swinging with a clothesline. Yet as Hernandez hits the ropes he quickly ducks, continuing on across the ring to hit the far ropes, then as Khali turns to confront him, Hernandez connects with a running clothesline, rocking The Great Khali on his heels. Then as Hernandez senses a change in momentum, he quickly hits the ropes again, ducking underneath a wild swing from Khali before stopping in his tracks behind him, waiting for Khali to turn into his path, before connecting with another HUGE punch, then attempting to send Khali into the ropes, but is reversed and over-powered again, when Khali sends Hernandez into the ropes, taking him down with a huge Big Boot, sending Hernandez crashing to the canvas, flat on his back, landing hard with a thud, as Hernandez’s head bounces off the canvas as he goes down. Khali raises his arms, roaring aloud with authority while the crowd looks on with awe and intimidation and, with Hernandez beginning to stagger to his feet, somehow able to find his balance, again Khali brandishes the edge of his hand, looking to connect with his Brutal Chop, swinging wildly as Hernandez turns around, only for the LAX man to duck the swing, staying away from the dangerous move, before catching Khali with a kick to the gut, winding him and quickly looking to hoist him onto his shoulder for Border Toss, miraculously able to lift the Punjabi Giant off his feet, only for Khali to break free, falling to his feet behind Hernandez and shoving the LAX man forwards from behind. Then as Khali sets himself, when Hernandez turns around he is now caught off-guard, walking directly into the Brutal Hand Chop of Khali, catching him flush on the skull, sending Hernandez down again in a heap. And with the entire crowd now in shock, Khali steps forward, placing one foot on the chest of Hernandez laying on the mat, making the cover as the referee counts, 1……2……But now Hernandez kicks out!!! And following this as the crowd cheers, Khali drags Hernandez back up to his feet, then throttling him around the throat with both hands, before hoisting him off his feet, only for Hernandez to counter with a stiff kick to the mid-section, breaking the grip, before breaking free once more and hitting the ropes on the far side of the ring, charging back at Khali as the Punjabi Giant again swings a clothesline to counter, before Hernandez now ducks the swing, continuing on to hit the far ropes and then, with Khali turning around to confront Hernandez, the LAX man careens forward, clattering into Khali with a huge running clothesline, staggering the giant on his feet. And with the crowd alerted with hope, Hernandez now turns to hit the ropes again, building momentum and again crashing into Khali with a HUGE running clothesline, staggering the monster further. Then with the crowd sensing a change in momentum, when Hernandez turns and hits the ropes again, he charge towards Khali once more, only to the taken down with a brutally stiff clothesline from the Punjabi Warrior, sending Hernandez down as Homicide and Salinas watch ominously from ringside. Then with Hernandez clearing his head, Khali advances, dragging the LAX man up, clamping his hands around the head of Hernandez and applying his deadly Vice Grip, squeezing and pressing tightly on the head of Hernandez attempting to crush his skull, as the LAX Big Man slowly, slowly begins to fade, dropping down to his knees and, gradually down to the mat as his eyes roll back into his head and his body goes limp, following a seemingly endless amount of time and suffering, eventually the referee intervenes, dropping raising the arm of Hernandez and dropping it once at first. Then, following two more attempts when there is no response from the LAX power-house, the ref has no choice but to call the match off and award victory to The Great Khali, raising his arm  in victory with Hernandez slumped on the canvas, the crowd jeers, before Homicide rolls into the ring, charging towards Khali, clubbing him in the back, connecting with several kicks to the legs and a solid right hand to the mid-section, before the Giant places his big right hand on the head of Homicide, covering his face, then shoving the 187 to the ground. Then when Homicide slowly gets to his feet, Khali throttles him around the throat with both hands, before hoisting him into the air, then slamming him onto the canvas with the devastating double-barrelled choke slam, the Khali Bomb. And with Salinas cringing with fear at ringside following this scene, while The Great Khali stands tall in the ring, raising his arms above his head again…

TIME 2 PLAY THE GAME! Attention suddenly turns towards the entrance way, while the Action Zone is bathed in a dark green glow, as the crowd now erupts, welcoming the arrival of Triple H with a deafening ovation, as Khali turns his head, appearing to beckon the UCW Champion down the ramp, into the ring to face him, when we see Triple H emerge from the back, armed with his faithful sledgehammer, dressed in casual jeans with an official King of Kings T-shirt and black leather jacket, with a particularly intense attitude about his entrance, The Game begins to advance. And with The Game now coming down the ramp, removing his black leather jacket, tossing it aside in a furious rage and arriving at ringside with dripping wet hair, without hesitation HHH slides into the ring as Khali quickly advances towards him, when HHH gets to his feet with a face stricken with rage and eyes burning in hatred, brandishing the sledgehammer in both hands and locking eyes with The Great Khali, while the crowd cheer and Triple H begins to advances towards the Punjabi Warrior, suddenly Khali lashes out as HHH charges, countering with a colossal Big Boot, dropping Triple H to the mat. Then as the sledgehammer falls from The Game’s hand, Khali steps forwards with Triple H slowly shaking his head and clearing his thoughts, while The Great Khali advances, placing both hands around the skull of The Game, slowly dragging the dazed and beaten UCW Champion to his feet on un-steady legs, before throttling him around the throat with both hands and hoisting him off his feet, then holding him in the air ready for the devastating double-barrelled Choke Slam, before Triple H now lashes out with an aggressive rake to the eyes of the Giant, briefly blinding Khali and forcing him to release his grip, dropping HHH to the mat, but when Khali turns away to clear his vision, with Triple H landing back on his feet, before stumbling and falling to the canvas, The Game clears his head and re-focuses, claiming his sledgehammer from the mat and getting to his feet and steadying himself. And then as Khali turns around the lashes out with an almighty but blinded swing, Triple H quickly ducks before stepping to the side and as Khali now turns around, Triple H clatters the sledgehammer into the skull of the 7ft 3” Punjabi Warrior, staggering him greatly. Then with Khali dazed, The Game swings the hammer again, crashing it into the head of Khali once more, wobbling the Giant away side-ways, before advancing and burying the sledgehammer deep into the gut of the Giant, winding him and sinking Khali down to one knee, as the crowd cheers deafeningly, while Triple H slams the hammer down to the canvas before Khali slowly stands up, only for The Game to connect with a vicious kick to the groin, winding Khali again, sinking him down to one knee before Triple H quickly drags Khali back to his feet, tucking his head down between his legs and briefly hooking the arms of the Giant, then planting him down to the canvas with a Pedigree. Then as the crowd explodes, Triple H gets to his feet and roars aloud with intensity, striking his famous HHH pose and performing several aggressive Crotch Chops with Khali face down on the canvas, before HHH climbs to the top of the nearest turnbuckle-post and performing his pose, several times over, then finally dropping back down to his feet on the canvas, but, with The Game now leaving the ring to make his way back onto the main stage, attention turns back towards and ring where Khali slowly begins to clear his head, while Triple H turns to look back to the ring, he is shocked to see Khali recovering, then slowly getting onto one knee and then to his feet and standing tall in the ring, while the crowd and the UCW Champion watches with an uncertain look on his face, shaking his head in disbelief with the Punjabi Warrior having got back to his feet, following the Pedigree. Then with Khali now motioning around his waist at HHH, signalling for the UCW Championship Belt, Triple H again strikes his famous pose, standing defiant with intensity while Meltdown prepares to go off the air and JR, saying…“The Game cannot believe it and neither can I, or any of these people, but, while the Pedigree was enough for a 3-count on Khali at Saturday Night Showdown, clearly Triple H must find something more to slay this dragon for Last Man Standing, though if he can’t we may be looking at a new UCW Champion after No Remorse!!!”
