Unleashed8-31

The XWE logo flashes and then a screen comes up with Tatyana backstage getting a drink. Val Venis comes up to her and smacks her with his towel “Hey hot thang. You know, I have a new movie to make, would you like to be the star?” She glares at him and scoffs. “I can be a star with or without you. And the last movie I’d be starring in is yours.” She smirked and started to walk away. Val grabbed her by the arm and swung her back. “Let her go!” Kurt came up behind him and punched him in the back of the neck. Val releases her and Kurt starts hammering on him. Lilian Garcia runs up, breaking them apart. “If you two want to fight so badly, take it to the ring!” Val leaves in a huff, leaving Kurt there with Tatyana. “Thank you Kurt, I guess if you win tonight, I’ll have to show you my thanks.” She winks and walks off. Kurt nods to himself, smiling and the XWE Unleashed music plays and the pryos go off.

He gets in the ring and walks up to Jayson and starts talking smack then smirks and backs away. "I'M AN ASS MAN" Billy Gunn's music hits and he doesn't appear. Christian starts laughing and Jayson goes over to start beating up on him but Billy Gunn runs in from the crowd dressed as a fan and starts beating up on Jayson as Shelton and Christian go to their corners. Jayson starts fighting back and goes for an Irish whip but Gunn reverses and hits a short arm clothesline and clotheslines Jayson over the rope so hard they both fall to the outside. 1......2.........3.....Christian jumps off the apron and goes after Jayson who gets up right when Christian comes and drop toe holds Christian face first into Billy Gunn. The crowd looks shocked the referee didn’t signal it as a low blow but cheers anyway.

Jayson tries to kick him off with his good leg but Gunn lets go of the leg before Jayson gets a chance and tags in Christian who immediately picks up Jayson and drops him for what looks like a modified Boston Crab or Walls of Jericho. Shelton sees that Gunn is helping Christian with leverage from the outside and hops off the apron and goes after him. He whips him torso first into the steel pole and then picks him up and T-Bone suplexes him into the crowd then gets on the barricade and clotheslines him when he gets up. Jayson gets up and is limping. Christian goes for a chop block but Jayson finds the energy to jump at the last second and Christian goes sliding through the bottom rope and almost smacks his head on the steel steps.

Christian rolls out of the ring and Jayson is in the ring looking pissed.

Backstage, Jeff Hardy and Edge are preparing for their match. Edge has Aggression playing on the TV in there. “Jeff…do you find this odd?” Stacy was on the screen, talking on her cell phone. “No, she was talking to you. How would that be odd?” Edge grabbed his cell phone and went to the recent calls. “That’s why.” Jeff looked at him and shrugged. “Who knows, don’t worry about it though. We got a match to win.” Edge wraps up his wrist with tape and shuts the TV off. “I guess you’re right, let’s go kick some ass!” Jeff laughs and nods his head. The camera fades off as they continue to prepare.

Coming back, Shawn Michaels is in Lilian Garcia’s office. “You have nothing to worry about Shawn. I’ve given Rock the night off. It will be a one on one match between you and Kane. No interferences, just straight up wrestling.” Shawn smiles to himself and looks at her. “Thanks Lilian, nice to know our GM has a good head on her shoulders.” Shawn leaves and Lilian just rolls her eyes and gets back to some paperwork on her desk.

The ring is set up for That’s So Maven. His music hits and Maven makes his way to the ring. He has on a power orange tux with a top hat and a cane. He gets in the ring and grabs a microphone.
King: Here we go JR…
“Hullo ahll ayund wehlcuhm tew yet anutha uhdushun uv Thayut’s Suh Mayvuhn!!!” The crowd actually cheers a little bit for him.

Jewel comes down and actually gets some cheers. Jewel grabs the microphone out of Maven’s hands. “Don’t bother; your voice is annoying us already.” She smiles and the crowd laughs with her. “I just want to make something clear to all of you. Whatever has happened in the past with me, I want you all to forget about it. That isn’t me anymore. This is me, the new and improved Jewel and well, things are going to look a lot brighter for me when I beat Monique for the title. You see-“ Just then, Monique cuts her off with a microphone of her own. “Wait, wait, you think you’re going to beat me?” Monique begins to laugh. “I can’t wait to see you try. Jewel, you are nothing. I’ve beaten you once and I’ll do it again.”
JR: Oh, some strong words there by Monique.
King: Oh baby! I can’t wait!! Think Lilian would make it a lingerie match?
JR: Would you shut up?
“That maybe so, Monique, but the Jewel you beat isn’t the Jewel that I am today. I’m stronger than what you think. But I’m not sure I want to tell you everything. I want you to underestimate me, that way; I can beat you with ease. You won’t even know what hit you!” Monique starts laughing again. “Okay, you just keep telling yourself that. You know what; I have better things to be doing than to be out here with some uni-brow freak and a skank. I’ll be ending this show early. Thanks for having me, Maven. And Jewel, see you at the pay-per-view.” Monique winks and drops the microphone. Jewel’s face gets flushed with anger. She drops her microphone and runs at Monique, tackling her to the mat. Monique gets in a couple slaps before Jewel flips her over and starts to slam her head repeatedly at the mat.
King: Think I should go down there and help out??
JR: No, I don’t, sit still. Jewel is really putting a hurting on Monique.
King: Maybe she’ll let me kiss it and make it all better.
JR: You’re disgusting.
Jewel gets Monique down and starts laying elbows into Monique’s leg over and over. Maven attempts to pull her off, but Jewel simply pushes him back. She starts to stomp on Monique’s leg repeatedly. Tatyana runs down the ramp and into the ring. She yanks Jewel off of Monique. Jewel rolls out of the ring and backs up the ramp. Tatyana leans over the ropes, yelling at her.

Rock: Hey guys, what’s going on?
King: Great to have you Rock! I thought you had the night off?
Rock: Yes, but I am The Rock, and The Rock doesn’t obliged to anyone.

JR: Rock, what is your motivation for joining us tonight?
Rock: The Rock needs motivation? The Rock can do whatever the hell he pleases, without answering to anybody.
King: I apologize for him Rock. JR just doesn’t realize greatness when he sees it.
JR: No, I realize it. All three of you are great athletes and will put on one helluva match for us at Summer Fest. Now, could we concentrate on what’s going on in the ring?
Kane has HBK backed up in the turnbuckle and is smashing him with clubbing blows.
Rock: Uh, why would you want to do that when The Rock is sitting right here?
King: JR just doesn’t know what kind of opportunity this is.
