No Safe Haven Pre-Show
DIR By: ControversyPersonified
Date: May 16, 2015, 3:01 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The HCW opening credits roll and we are live in The Barclays
Center for No Safe Haven! We go straight to the arena and the
signature skybox where Todd Grisham is as always waiting for us.
TG: Hi, my name is Todd Grisham and welcome to the HCW.com
exclusive No Safe Haven Pre Show! Tonight as always we've got
interviews from the stars, some in ring action and we will
previewing every match on the main card. First things first: Our
panel. First, we've got the General Manager of Collision. How's
it going Coach?
Coach gives a thumbs up and smiles at Grisham, looking cool in
his usual sunglasses.
TG: Then we've got commentator for the event, The “Professor”
Mike Tenay!
He murmurs a few words to Todd and acknowledges his welcome.
TG: And we've got the newest addition to the wrestling roster of
Collision...a member of the so called “Golden Generation” -
Triple H.
Triple H sighs at the “So called” and doesn't acknowledge
anything.
TG: Now, incase you missed it, we're going back a PPV to Birth
of Destruction! Let's take a look!
We have quick flashes of the Two Pre Show matches – the winners
being Sami Zayn and Prince Devitt – two relative newcomers
before the main show kicked off with an epic Triple Threat which
resulted in a true BoD moment – Daniel Bryan making Dolph
Ziggler submit and thus scooping the International Title.
Following that, Drake Younger managed to retain his belt against
a game Kevin Owens. Then, the brutal Buried Alive match followed
with a win for The Undertaker over Sting. After, Vader managed
to retain his belt over Steve Austin, Taz managed to win Money
in the Bank and The Shield retained over Batista and Ryback.
Then, the War Games match happened which resulted in the death
of the nWo, before Cody Rhodes in the main event retained yet
again over Scott Steiner. We head back to Grisham.
TG: Well, I enjoyed every moment of that, and I can't wait for
the next Birth of Destruction, but for now it's all about No
Safe Haven and I think it's time we get our first Preview going.
TG: This match has gotten quite personal in the last few weeks
and later tonight, these two men, Kevin Owens and Edge, will
collide in a match where tables, ladders and chairs are welcomed
to be used at wish... Let's see how we've come to this match...
The video package starts with footage of the CDM Title Taipei
Death Match at BOD VII between Younger and Owens, with Edge as
the ref. We then see the ending of the match, where Owens's
focus was more on the ref than on the champ and that cost him
the match.

him. Before Saxton can say anything, Owens cuts him off)

> Owens: I'm not doing interviews right now. I'm here to fight.
I'm here to beat Orton. Finally, I'm here to beat the hell out
of Edge. I want to see him in that ring. Now, get out of my
sight before I do something I may regret.
>
> (Saxton walks off slowly as Owens is burning a hole right
through him with his eyes. He keeps walking heading towards his
locker room)
--- End Quote ---
We then see the footage of where Coach announced that both men
would face each other at No Safe Haven. And then, we see him
announcing that the match will be a TLC Match.
We then see Owens's attack on Randy Orton and Edge coming to the
rescue.
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---

> (Owens is backstage at Collision before the show. He is
texting somebody when Renee Young approaches him)
>
> RY: Kevin, do you have anything to say about your new alliance
with Triple H, Dolph Ziggler, and Cody Rhodes?
>
> Owens: I have nothing to say to you about it. I will say my
piece on Collision when the time calls for it.
>
> RY: Well, could you at least explain your actions in your
match against Randy Orton?
>
> Owens: I wanted to make it clear to everyone that I was not
messing around. I'm not going to waste my time on people like
Randy Orton. He means nothing to me. People called him a viper
and a person to be feared. I listen to no one. Randy Orton
learned a first hand lesson on why he should fear me. I sent a
message to Edge as to why he should fear me. He made the mistake
of getting involved with my career. I want to see Edge in that
ring this week on Collision. He still has to answer for what he
did at Birth of Destruction.
>
> Once he gives me an answer......I'm going to break his neck!
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---
>
> (Owens smirks at Edge's comments)
>
> Owens: Oh, wow, look at you continuing to use the spear as a
threat. Listen man, I am never going to fear you or your little
move. I am the one who strikes fear into the hearts of others.
Don't roll your eyes at that like I'm saying nonsense because I
mean it! You know what I am really happy you ruined my chance to
win the CDM Championship because it means I am going to provide
plenty of reason why I should be considered for better
championships. After I'm done with you, there will be no doubt
in people's minds that I am heading straight to the top of the
wrestling world.
>
> I am going to fight you. I am going to end your career like
how you tried to derail mine. You say you should not fear me,
but I am unlike anybody you have ever faced before. Get used to
hearing the words "Kill Owens Kill! Fight Owens Fight!" It's
what I do everytime I step into that ring. I am going to make
you wish you never got into this business. I am going to be the
guy that makes you live the rest of your life in a wheelchair!
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote from: Thurl link ---
>
> Edge snorts in laughter when it comes to his attention what
Owens just said.
>
> Edge: I told you Owens, I have faced worse than you and I am
still here. I mean honestly, I have faced Undertaker, hell, I
have face Mick Foley in a h@rdcore match and I am still here. Do
you really think you bring more to the table than they already
have and then some? Keep throwing your threats my way, but know
they fall on deaf ears. I was the first Crimson Death Match
Champion, Before that I was multi time crimson Triple Tap
Champion and multi time Deathmatch champion. This is not my
first rodeo kid. Believe me when I say that Kill Steen Kill,
Fight Steen Fight, don't intimidate nor impress me. You are
going to end my career? Please. If you are able to leave the
ring under your own power, I will be shocked.

> Kevin Owens enters the arena to a fair amount of boos. He
smirks a bit and makes his way down to the ring. Owens looks
around the arena and grabs a mic.
>
> Owens: Here we are a few days away from No Safe Haven. Now, I
know I haven’t been the most pleasant of people lately, but it’s
for good reasons. I’m sick and tired of Edge. I’m sick of him
telling me he is going to spear me. I’m sick of him telling me
he’s going to beat me and leave me in a pool of my own blood.
I’m just so sick of Edge.
>
> It’s all ok though, because at No Safe Haven I’m going to get
to beat the living hell out of Edge in an environment of my
liking. Tables, ladders, and chair are music to my ears and I’m
sure Edge is happy too. I’m going to show Edge though that I am
the new king of TLC. I’m going to brutalize him unlike anybody
has before. I’m going to stop talking about Edge though because
I’ve been informed that there is a special guest at ringside
tonight. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to Collision the
mother of the Rated R Superstar, Mrs. Copeland!
>
> The camera cuts to a quick shot Mrs. Copeland who looks a bit
uncomfortable.
>
> Owens: Now, Mrs. Copeland, I’m sure you do not want to hear me
talking about how much I’m going to beat your son up. I mean I
could keep going about how you are going to see your son bleed
more than he has in his entire life. I could keep telling you
how your son will be begging for mercy and praying to some
higher power for help. But, I’m not going to keep doing that to
you. I’m a nicer guy than that.
>
> Instead, I’m just going to tell you about how much of a
failure you are as a mother!
>
> The crowd instantly showers Owens in a chorus of boos. Owens
doesn’t even pay attention to the crowd and keeps staring a hole
into Mrs. Copeland.
>
> Owens: You are such a failure as a mother. You raised your son
terribly. Are you proud of a son who dubs himself the Rated R
Superstar? What kind of message does that send to parents and
their kids? You are pathetic for letting your son turn into some
psychopath. Your son is trying to ruin my life and my family’s
life. How can you just sit there and be happy about your son!?
You are a pathetic woman.
>
> I can tell you barely cared about him! You just let him become
some lunatic. You didn’t even help him when he saw his house
burn to the ground. Some mother you are right! He’s getting his
house burned down and you’re just being some stupid b*tch! You
don’t even care about yourself! Did you even look at yourself in
the mirror? I don’t want to boil things down to some 5th grade
insults about looks, but you look like a dirty wh*re! You mine
as well be on a street corner right now letting desperate men
have your way with you!
>
> The crowd is really letting Owens have it at this point.
>
> Owens: I should let some of the boys in the back know that
you’re probably working the late shift tonight. I’m sure they’ll
be happy to know that they won’t be too lonely tonight like how
you probably feel every night!
>
> Owens leave the ring and walks right in front of Mrs. Copeland
who is crying pretty heavily at this point.
>
> Owens: You should be crying. You should be crying a lot.
Maybe, I finally gave you the reality check you needed on your
life. Just know, you have been and probably will always be the
worst mother on the planet. You’re going to be reminded of that
too. At No Safe Haven, you will see your failure of a son have
his career ended and you should have tried to stop him before
his life was destroyed.

the direction of Edge's mother, who was sitting at ringside...
Would you say these comments could turn on you come No Safe
Haven? You know Edge's reputation...

> Owens: (In a frustrated tone) I am sick of hearing about
Edge's reputation. I'm sick of constantly hearing how ruthless
this guy is. I'm sick of how he keeps telling me that I'm going
to get speared. I'm sick of the opportunitist bullsh*t! I'm sick
of everything about Edge! You all like to hold this guy up on
some pedestal because he is so amazing and violent! He does not
deserve the praise that he gets from all of you!
>
> Owens takes a deep breath.
>
> Owens: You know what? I don't care anymore. You want to know
why? At No Safe Haven, as all of you are busy kissing Edge's
*ss, I'm going to be ending his career. You will all watch in
horror as your precious anti-hero finally falls to the ground. I
am the new breed. I am the guy everyone is going to be talking
about No Safe Haven. Everyone is going to fear the name Kevin
Owens. People will start realizing that "Kill Owens Kill!" is
not just some catchy phrase to put on a t-shirt. It's the damn
reality of what happens to those who come before me. At No Safe
Haven, Edge will become an afterthought. I do not regret
anything I said at Collision because it won't matter at No Safe
Haven! I'm going to destroy Edge! None of you may expect that to
happen, but all of you will remember it when it happens!

end of thea Golden Generation just got started. But wait,
there's more! Owens.. you poor bast@rd. Coach has put us in a
TLC match. Sorry Pal, you have already lost the match at No Safe
Haven. TLC is my not just my playground, it's my home. If you
thought you were in for a challenge already, you have now just
come face to face with the fact that you stand no chance. See
you at No Safe Haven...
--- End Quote ---
We then conclude the video package with action of both men in
action including their major brawl on the last Collision before
the PPV and we then see tables, ladders and chairs.
TG: Man, that match looks like it'll shorten the careers of both
men who will participate. I'll start with you, Coach...
This match, unlike any other TLC matches that we have had in
HCW's history will only end with a pinfall or submission unlike
the others who the winner had to climb the ladder and grab
something... Do you think that can favor Kevin Owens?
Coach: Perhaps. Obviously I've seen a bit of Kevin, and I think
it suits him being rooted to the ground rather than halfway up
in the rafters up a Ladder.
TG: Hunter, Owens is your new protege... Is TLC a dangerous
thing for Kevin's health...
HHH: You seem to worry too much, Todd. Look, Edge is in his
element, I get it... But Kevin has only been here for the last
two-three months... You haven't seen the real Kevin Owens yet
and I fear for Edge because Kevin doesn't fear getting rough out
there with tables, ladders and chairs. He'll punish him and hurt
him in a way you haven't seen him before.
TG: Mike, how Edge can win this match? And will he be mentally
prepared after what occurred to him these last few months?
Tenay: Experience. Edge has been in this company for a very long
time and had to endure tough matches before so that won't be an
issue. As for the other question, only Edge has that answer, I'm
afraid. I dunno how I would react after seeing my mother get
berated by a man like Kevin Owens. So, we'll see what effect it
will have on Edge's psyche.
TG: Predictions! Mike?
Tenay: I think, as much as I don't like the guy, that we see the
birth of the new king of TLC tonight. Owens.
TG: Should I pass you, Hunter, as we kinda know which way you
stand...
HHH: You're damn right Kevin will win... He will not only win...
He will end Edge's career tonight.
TG: And you, Coach?
Coach: Edge for me Todd...
TG: Thanks, but now I'm hearing we've got to go to the ring!

The crowd give a few cheers to the Blueprint Matt Morgan. He
strolls down to the ring, mic in hand.
MM: Well it would seem that I'm not booked for tonight's event.
Well that's fine...that is fine. Instead I've got a few things
to discuss about a certain person: Dolph Ziggler.
Mixed reaction at his name.
MM: Actually, I'd quite like Dolph if he has, the time to come
down to the ring. Come on Dolph!
Only a couple of notes play of “I'm here to Show the World”
hits...but-”[/I]
DZ: Cut the music!
[i]Ziggler talks while he walks into the ring.
DZ: What do you want now Morgan? Are your mouth and brain
connected? It's quite unbelievable, your stupidity...You're
right on one thing though, we aren't booked for the PPV...so
I'll settle for the next best thing...kicking your ass!
Ziggler is now in the ring, and throws his mic at Morgan, and
instantly springs at him but Morgan is too quick as he smacks
him with a big punch and stamps on him several times. He then
picks Ziggler up and sends him flying out of the ring. Ziggler
lands on his feet and he sprints back in the ring, but Morgan
just does the same and Ziggler gets flung out again. Ziggler
stares at Morgan and just walks away from Morgan too boos when
eventually we go to the skybox again.
TG: Well, a quick spat there...any reaction there Hunter? Coach?
Mike?
Tenay: He looked scared there to be honest.
HHH: Scared? Wake up Tenay...
JC: Actually, we shoud see whether Dolph is scared...tonight, in
the main show, Dolph Ziggler and Matt Morgan will face off in a
No Disqualification match!
TG: Wow! Ok...well...
Grisham is distracted by HHH and Coach having an inaudible
conversation before he regains focus.
TG: This next match is a true David vs Goliath, HCW-Style. The
Global Championship will be defended as its holder, "The
Mastodon" Vader will face the red-hot challenger, Prince Devitt.
Let's see how it all got started...
The video package starts with footage of the Battle Royal that
happened at the BOD VII Pre-Show which saw Devitt last eliminate
AJ to win a shot at the Global Champion.
--- Quote from: Black Widow link ---
>
> The camera follows Scarlett Bordeaux through the corridors
where she enters Devitt's locker room, where he is removing his
body paint. Scarlett prances over to him and plants a kiss on
his cheek.
>
> Scarlett: There he is! The #1 contender to the Global
Championship! That was a hell of a performance out there!
>
> Scarlett takes a seat next to him, her cleavage well exposed
in her business blazer.
>
> Scarlett: Now, seeing as Vader retained his title, you'll be
going up against him, and we all know that's not a walk in the
park. With Heenan in his corner as well, you have your work cut
out for you.
>
> Devitt: Vader has never met an opponent like me. Heenan has
never seen an opponent like me. Hell, Vader has never faced an
opponent like me.
>
> Scarlett: You have the speed, the technique, and the skill to
outwrestle Vader. Sure, he's got the power and that large,
intimidating figure, but your talents outmatch his. And then he
and Heenan will see why you're called the Prince of HCW.
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---
>
> (Heenan and Vader are backstage after BOD)
>
> Heenan: I told all of you! Vader was not a happy man! He
wanted to crush Austin and he did! Nobody can stand up to the
Mastodon, not even the so-called toughest SOB in all of
wrestling. Vader is relentless and I proved to all of you why
none can stand against him!
>
> I do know that Vader has a new contender with Prince Devitt.
While Devitt seems like a nice rising star, he like Austin
cannot compare to Vader. He claims that we have never faced
anyone like him before. Why? Is the facepaint supposed to be the
reason behind that statement? Vader has faced plenty of guys who
paint their faces Devitt. Guess what? He isn't intimidated by
artists. Oh look, you know how to make yourself look like
Spider-Man. Please, this is just silly Devitt. He isn't
intimidated by anyone. Look Devitt, I'm glad you passed arts and
crafts when you were younger, but get over it.
>
> Vader is going to hurt you like he has with everyone else.
You, Devitt, have never faced anyone like Vader before and
you'll wish you never won that match to face him.
>
> Vader: It's time for you to fall Devitt. It's time! IT'S TIME!
IT'S VADER TIME!
--- End Quote ---
We then see Devitt pull off impressive wins against Miz and
Rusev while also delivering a spectacular dive on Vader after
the match with Rusev.
--- Quote from: Black Widow link ---
>
> Scarlett: You girls have accomplished a great thing in your
career. You are the no#1 contenders to the Synergy Tag Team
Championships. But my boyfriend, Prince Devitt, is the no#1
contender to the Global Championship, and since winning that, he
has done nothing but carry himself with poise and pride and
dominate everyone thrown his way. He is a fighting competitor
and he will show that when he defeats Bret Hart on Fusion. Oh,
and you better believe when he gets his hands on Vader, there is
no doubt that he will become the champ.
--- End Quote ---
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---
>
> (Heenan and Vader are backstage with Todd Phillips after
Fusion)
>
> TP: Mr. Heenan, tonight, while Vader picked up a big win
against Ken Shamrock, you still came out on the losing end of
the attack on Prince Devitt. Can you explain your actions?
>
> Heenan: Devitt is getting way too ****y. I hate the arrogance
that is exuding from him. He think he owns the ring. He thinks
he is so high and mighty. Vader and I cannot stand that
attitude. He needed a reality check. Vader was trying to teach
him a lesson. We are good people like that. We want the audience
to look at men who hold themselves to better standards than that
man Prince Devitt.
>
> Sadly, Devitt did get the upper hand. He should enjoy the
feeling while it lasts. It won't last long.
>
> As Vader proved tonight, he doesn't stay down for long. He
came back and beat Ken Shamrock. He will do the very same to
Prince Devitt. I hope Devitt is ready for more war because we
are just getting started.
--- End Quote ---
We then see Vader's attack on Devitt at the last Fusion, in
which he delivered a nasty powerbomb.
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---
>
> Heenan: I'll have you know that I live in the best world. I
have money. I have fame. I have a nice house. Most importantly
though, I live in a world where Vader is the most dominant
wrestler on the planet and there is nothing Prince Devitt can do
to stop him! Nobody can stop the Mastodon! Your "boyfriend" can
put on all of the dumb make-up he wants. It won't matter! Vader
is ready to destroy him! He's tired of seeing Prince Devitt and
his smug Irish face.
--- End Quote ---
We end the video package with Vader standing over Devitt.
TG: Mike, I'll start with you. The matchup in paper looks like
the perfect example of David vs Goliath. Can you tell me how the
challenger should approach this matchup?
Tenay: It is indeed David vs Goliath. Devitt must avoid getting
dominated for very long stretches in this match. We know that
Vader will use his strength to try to ground the faster and more
agile challenger so Devitt must limit the damage he's going to
take and he must go all out on the champion to keep him
guessing.
TG: Hunter, is there a danger that the champion looks past the
less-experienced challenger and gets caught?
HHH: Heenan will make sure to avoid that as much as he can. I've
seen Vader fight my former client, Goldberg, several times and I
know that if Vader goes to this match with the exact same
attitude he has shown against Goldberg, Devitt will be in major
trouble.
TG: Coach, we all know Heenan's ability to influence the result
of a match... Does the presence of Scarlett Bordeaux take away
Heenan's top tricks?
Coach: No. Scarlett's good eye candy for sure, but they call him
the Brain for a reason. He's overcame bigger hurdles than Devitt
and Bordeaux, that's for sure.
TG: Coach, a prediction?
Coach: In spite of what I just said, I'll plump for Devitt, he's
on fire.
TG: Hunter, who you are picking for?
HHH: I can't see Devitt, as hot as he may be, finding a way to
pin or submit the larger champion. Vader.
TG: Mike... Does David defeat Goliath this time?
Tenay: I think Scarlett's presence at least gives more chance to
the challenger and it wouldn't surprise me that a mistake costs
the champion the title. So yeah, I pick for Devitt to be the new
champion.
TG: That's another preview down, but now we're going to the
ring! Six Man Tag Team action!

The Ministry got a poor reaction. Batista, Kane and Sin Cara
looked a dangerous force. Zayn followed, looking excited as ever
to be competing, then came Randy Orton who had a good pop, as
did Mr. Money in the Bank Taz. The match was never going to be
the fastest, but Zayn and Sin Cara in the early part put on a
great wrestling clinic, full of agile submissions and high
flying impact moves. Then came Orton and Kane, both methodical
and vicious, trying to outnasty each other.
They both hit one another with a relatively big move, Kane hit
three flying Clotheslines in a row, and Orton hit a big Draped
for DDT from the top rope this time and got a two count. Batista
and Taz came in after that, and Batista dominated Taz for large
periods, he nailed a big Spear and then followed it up with a
Spinebuster. He looked like he was going for the Batista Bomb,
but Zayn came in and knocked Batista's leg out. Zayn sent
Batista to the corner and nailed a Helluva kick right on the
money. Sin Cara then arrived with a big flying Forearm to Zayn,
but Orton came right in and hit Sin Cara with an RKO. Kane came
in and hooked Orton up, and as Taz staggered back up, Kane
grabbed him and hit both Orton and Taz with simultaneous
chokeslams. Kane then rolled Batista towards Taz, sensing his
work done and left. Batista did get on Taz eventually but Taz
was playing possum and stacked Batista up for a two count.
As soon as they were both up, Batista got Taz up for the Batista
Bomb but Taz slid out the back and managed to lock in a
Tazmission! That's all he needed as he got the victory!
Winners: Orton/Zayn/Taz via Taz making Batista submitting to the
Tazmission at 21:27
Match Rating: ***3/4
We go up to the the skybox as we come away from Taz posing with
his breifcase.
TG: Congratulations to Sami Zayn, Randy Orton and Mr. MitB,
Taz...they are the winners! Time for another preview I think!
This time we go to the Extreme Elimination Chamber...a novel
match put forward by our friend here Jonathan Coachman! Let's
take a look!

> Taker attacked Zayn even before the bell rang. He was in quite
the mood, as he dominated the action early on the match. Sami
would show his resiliency throught that and fight back with a
couple of moves, including a DDT. He even surprised Taker with a
quick Helluva Kick but Taker would kick out at two. For the next
few minutes, both men would throw their best at each other but
it is the leader of the Ministry of Darkness who would get the
better hand, catching Sami by the throat as he was trying to hit
a second Helluva Kick and threw him on the mat with a thunderous
Chokeslam... Before following suite with a Tombstone Piledriver
for the three count and the first fall.
>
> Winner of the First Fall: The Undertaker via Tombstone
Piledriver at 12:43
>
> Taker would try to end the second fall quickly with another
Tombstone attempt but Sami slid out of trouble and then hit a
reverse Russian legsweep followed by the Koji Clutch.
Unfortunately, Taker wouldn't submit and he would find a way to
break the hold with sheer strength. He then caught Sami right on
the jaw with a massive boot. He then calls for the end... And he
then gives Sami a second Tombstone Piledriver for the second
fall and a spot in the CDM Title Extreme Elimination Chamber
match.

some negative energy. He dragged Younger towards the fans early
on, but Younger reversed it and got on top.
>
> Younger seemed a little less desperate than Steiner, but he
still came close to setting Steiner on fire a couple of times.
Younger picked Rick Steiner in a Bodyslam position and dangled
Rick Steiner towards the flames but it didn't happen. Younger
had another chance to set Rick on fire, when he dodged a Rick
Steiner big boot and did a double leg takedown and locked in a
Boston Crab with Steiner very close to the flames, but he
eventually powered out.
>
> The end eventually came when Steiner did a big Diving Bulldog
and then posed, Scott Steiner style and locked in a Recliner
submission. It was relatively centre in the ring, but Younger
managed to reverse it by standing up with Rick on his back and
hitting an Electric Chair drop. However, Younger left a stray
leg which caught fire!

again to catch Kofi with his inverted backbreaker. Orton would

his own, including a flying legdrop for a two count.

picking apart his opponent with the Garvin Stomp followed by the

We then see highlights of the Battle Royale which dechiphered
the entrance order. Then we are in Coaches office:
[quote author=#HeelCarter link=topic=6.msg8409#msg8409
date=1429949737]
[I]Coach is backstage with 6 random backstage hands.[/I]
JC: Right folks, I've got you hear to track down the 6 men in
the Extreme Elimination Chamber to give them there weapons.
Please make it clear that these weapons will not be allowed to
be used at anytime before the chamber. It may mean their spot in
the match.
[I]Coach gets a Steel Chair and hands it to one backstage
hand.[/I]
JC: Find Ryback and hand him this.
[I]Coach then retrieves an old shovel and gives it to the next
crew member.[/I]
JC: This is what Undertaker used at Birth of Destruction to help
beat Sting. Return it to him.
[I]The crew member leaves, albeit looking slightly frightened.
Coach is struggling slightly with the next weapon, Titan helps
him. It's a ladder, around ten feet.[/I]
JC: Kofi Kingston will find a use for this.
[I]The backstage man walks off, albeit struggling with the
ladder.[/I]
JC: Drake Younger's weapon is this.
[I]The next backstage hand receives a Glass Table. He scurries
off with it, leaving two backstage hands.[/I]
JC: Find Ambrose for me. Hand him this.
[I]The next weapon is brutal...a Barbed Wire Trash Can.[/I]
JC: And last but not least sir, please find Rick Steiner for me.
And bring him here.
[I]The backstage hand raises his eyebrows and walks off. We then
fade from the screen and we see a graphic before heading back to
Grisham.[/I]
TG: Now, it's time to talk to our all star panel, Triple H, what
do Dean Ambrose and Undertaker need to do tonight to try and
win?
HHH: Ambrose needs to eliminate one or two members of the
Ministry to give himself a chance.
As for Taker, he simply needs to use his vast experience and his
legendary toughness to dominate. And using his mean streak he
has had lately will help.
TG: Coach, please review the chances for Ryback and Dean
Ambrose.
JC: Ryback is out first and I don't think his priority is his
own gain. If Drake Younger wins then I think he can go down as
the best CDM Champion in history...
TG: And Mike, how about Kofi Kingston and Rick Steiner?
Tenay: Two interesting ones. If Kofi wasn't joined by his
Ministry members in the match, he'd be favourite, especially
with the ladder at his disposal. Rick Steiner is indifferent
most of the time, but in the last few months he's beat both the
Universal and CDM Champion...he's a dark horse here for sure.
TG: What about predictions? Mike?
Tenay: Taker...for sure. Numbers advantage.
TG: Coach?
JC: I think Younger can do it again...I think he can pull a
rabbit out of the hat.
TG: And finally you Triple H?
HHH: Although the Ministry didn't had the best run lately... I
can't see the title not going to them. Now, I predict Taker to
win it but that match truly has that "Anything Can Happen"
mantra.
TG: Ok guys, but now I understand Matt Striker has a
guest...Matt?!

MS: My guest at this time is a man who's just been put in a No
Disqualification Match...Dolph Ziggler! Dolph can I have a
comment on what just happened?
DZ: A comment? Want me to go on some sort of typical Dolph
Ziggler rant about how I'm going to decimate Matt Morgan? I
can't be doing with it Striker. I am Mr. Ratings, but I'm not
about to show it. I'm going to get this match out of the way as
quickly as possible. Just like this interview. I've beaten
Morgan before and I'll beat him again, one, two, three.
There's a comment.
Ziggler leaves irritably as Grisham reappears.
TG: Dolph sounds confident for sure...now however we've got
another preview on the way.
This match... Everyone that talks to me about No Safe Haven is
talking about this particular match. A match that we never
thought we would see happening will indeed happen at No Safe
Haven, as Bret Hart will collide with The Rock in a match that
became personal... Personal ever since Birth of Destruction
VII...
The video package starts with footage of the War Games match
between the British Invasion and the New World Order.

right there with you and Cena. You say we fought only to destroy

TG: This could easily be the most emotional match out there...
I'll start with you, Mike... Is the new Bret Hart even more
dangerous now?
Tenay: Well, he has a purpose right now... Although I can't
still understand how his relationship with the NWO could end up
like this, he made his intentions clear and when Bret was on a
path to revenge before, he's usually far more aggressive than
the one we usually see. That will mean more trouble for the
Rock.
TG: Hunter, you've had several battles with Rock before in your
storied career... What makes him one of the best this company
has?
HHH: Sincerely, I still think Rock is not to my level... But the
reason why he's one of the greats is that he has extra gears
that you usually don't expect... And it mostly comes from the
energy of the crowd. Rock is feeding off their energy and that's
why he's always resilient. And Bret knows all of that, so I'm
positive he has a plan.
TG: Coach, did you ever thought we would see this match
happening?
Coach: No. No-one in their right mind could think that. When it
was just Hart, Rock and Regal left in the cage I'd of put
everything on my own of the nWo being literally immortal. I
can't believe it didn't happen that way.
TG: Predictions, guys?
Coach: Hart by Disqualification for me.
HHH: I think Bret will use Rock's anger against him and he'll
force him to tap out in front of his people.
Tenay: Two separate styles inside the ring. Usually the
technician would be the favorite but I have an hard time
believing that Rock will tap. He will find a way, like he mostly
does.

Wisconsin, land of HCW Hall-of-Famer Mr. Kennedy! Collision will
pay a visit to Green Bay, Wisconsin as they'll be inside the
Resch Center while Fusion will return to Milwaukee, Wisconsin
for the first time since May 2nd, 2014 but this time, they will
be inside UW–Milwaukee Panther Arena.
Then, we will go to the state of Iowa, state of one-half of the

go to Des Moines, Iowa to visit the Community Choice Credit
Union Convention Center while Fusion will go to Sioux City, Iowa
at the Tyson Events Center for their show. Collision went to
Iowa once before in April of 2014 but that was at another arena.
For the final set of shows before our next PPV, we'll pay a
visit to the state of South Dakota, as Collision will go to
Sioux Falls, South Dakota at the Denny Sanford Premier Center
and Fusion will go to Rapid City, South Dakota at the Rushmore
Plaza Civic Center. Collision went to South Dakota in late 2014,
but it was at another arena.
The next PPV will be held in the city of HCW's Viper, Randy
Orton as HCW will go to St. Louis, Missouri and pay a visit to
Scottrade Center for the first time since December 2014. It'll
be the first PPV held inside that arena, though.
So, here it is... Tickets will begin to be sold after No Safe
Haven is done so get ready to make your orders because the
hottest shows in town are about to come your way.
But now, we're going for another preview folks!
TG: This match will open No Safe Haven and what a great match
this could potentially be. The International Title will be on
the line as the new champion, Daniel Bryan, will go one-on-one
with the former champion, Jeff Hardy. Two friends on a collision
course... Let's see how we got to tonight...
We start with seeing several Hardy fans applauding their guy and
then plenty of guys doing the Yes! chants. We then see footage
of Jeff winning the International Title at Colleseum and the
respectful handshake he had backstage with Daniel Bryan.

Destruction.

We see the footage of the ending of the triple threat involving
Ziggler, Bryan and Hardy and we zoom in to how close Hardy was
to stop Bryan to make Ziggler tap. We then see Bryan celebrating
with the titles and the deflated look in Hardy's face.
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---

>
> Hardy: Well, as you said Renee, it was an unfortunate loss. I
did not plan on losing the title. However, I am fine that at
least the title ended up in Bryan's hands rather than Ziggler's.
With that said though, I want a rematch. Bryan knows I want a
rematch. Let's have a rematch.
>
> Tonight, I'm going to beat Ziggler and show why I still
deserve to be International champion. I can't wait to wipe the
smugness right off his face. He was the one who took the fall,
not me. I'm going to show why he is the real loser out of that
match.
>
> Bryan, I know you're listening. I wish you luck in your match
tonight. You're my friend, but I am coming back for that title.
We're going to have one hell of a rematch. I intend on being the
guy that wins this time around though. See you soon, buddy.
--- End Quote ---
We then see the footage of how that match ended with Bryan
taking out Hunter but distracting Hardy enough to have him lose
his focus... and the match.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
> Bryan is stretching inside his locker room, getting ready for
the main-event. He suddenly stops when he sees Jeff Hardy enter
the room. Crowd gives a good reaction to Hardy.
>
> Hardy: So you seem to have your hands full lately, I hope I'm
not taking up too much of your time.
>
> Bryan: You never take too much of my time. You remember almost
a month ago when I paid a visit to your room. I don't mind you
doing the same.
>
> Hardy: Good to know, man, but look I'm here on serious
business. You know I still have a rematch against you for your
title, but we both have a problem with Ziggler. Obviously,
Ziggler has more friends at his side now. So, needless to say, I
think you may need some help on that end.
>
> Bryan smiles.
>
> Bryan: I definitely understand that. And I am happy to have
you lurking in the shadows if Dolph gets help from his new
friends... But is it the only reason why you came?
>
> Hardy: No, it isn't. Look man, I want to make it clear to you
man to man. I want that title back and I want to make sure you
have whatever mess you're in out of the way. So you better beat
Ziggler tonight because I want to beat you for the title. You
were the only who deserved to take that belt away from me. Now,
I intend on being the guy that gets it back. I've said it
before. Once we are facing each other, there are no friends
anymore. It's just us competing for that title. I've worked far
too hard in the past year to let it get away that easy.
>
> Bryan: And I expect nothing less from the man who defeated
plenty of demons in his past...
>
> Oh... I guess I do need to apologize to you for the
distraction last week... I got carried away... It's so good to
knee the big head Hunter has...
>
> Hardy: Yeah, I was not happy about that. I know you have your
issues with those guys, but don't try to mess things up like
that man. It threw off my rhythm and clearly you saw that I
loss. So I would appreciate it if you would not do that again
>
> Bryan: Look... I'll try to be careful as to when to do it...
But you ain't telling me to stop doing anything... Whether it is
to make Hunter's head explode or to do the Yes! chants.
>
> That is said, with all due respect to our friendship.
>
> Hardy: I'm not telling you to not kick Hunter's head in. I'm
not telling to not do Yes! chants. I'm telling you to just to
not mess with my business. I do my thing. You do yout hink. The
only time we should be getting involved with each other's
business is when the International title is concerned. As you
said, with all due respect to our friendship.
>
> Bryan: Whoa whoa whoa whoa... You say not to mess with your
business... Does that mean that you shouldn't mess with my
business?
>
> Hardy: Of course it does because I'm not a jerk who tries to
ruin the matches of his friend. I would never do that. So I
would never do that to you.
>
> Bryan: Is that a slight assumption from you that I'm a jerk?
Look, if you think that what happened last week wasn't about the
International Title, guess again... I know why Coach booked you
against Dolph last week... That was to give Dolph the chance to
prove that he deserves a rematch as well... I tried to help you
by taking out Hunter after he got involved. It backfired...
>
> Tonight, I have to deal with Ziggler... Let's just hope that
the roles won't be reversed tonight...
>
> Hardy: Yeah... let's hope they won't. Good luck Daniel, you're
going to need it.
>
> Bryan: I won't need any luck, Jeff... And after I take care of
Dolph tonight... I won't need any in our deserved one-on-one
encounter.
>
> They exchange a quick stare before Hardy leaves the room. That
allows Daniel to continue his stretching.

We then see Bryan defeat Ziggler in an Ambulance Match and Hardy
taking the title to give it to Bryan, but not before taking a
long look at it.
--- Quote from: MrAwesome link ---
>
> (Jeff is backstage after Collision when Renee Young approaches
him)
>
> RY: Jeff, tonight, you got involved in the main event after
stating to Daniel Bryan that you would never get involved with
his business. What do you have to say about that?
>
> Hardy: I don't like that tone Renee. I wasn't trying to mess
things up for Daniel. He won, didn't he? Exactly, I did the
right thing. I helped because Triple H got involved. Plus, now,
I get a fair rematch with Bryan. I'm looking forward to it.
>
> RY: Aren't you worried about consequences with the Golden
Generation?
>
> Hardy: No, I'm not. If they want to get revenge on me, I'm
more than willing to face them. But, my first focus is getting
my title back on my shoulder.
>
> RY: Do you think Daniel Bryan would be upset?
>
> Hardy: If he's upset that I helped him win and not get his ass
beat down, I don't have any words. I would be baffled honestly.
He should be thanking me. I was being a good friend. Now, if you
excuse me, I'm going to head to my hotel and relax for the
night.

>
> Hardy: Well, I'm sure all of you are wondering about why I did
what I did last week.
--- End Quote ---
We then see Hardy hitting the Swanton Bomb to Bryan after his
tag match the Collision before that one.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> Hardy: Bryan, I know you are wondering what the hell happened
last week. I'm going to quite frank with you. Personally Daniel,
you have been getting on my nerves a fair amount lately. Almost
as if you think you're a better champion than me like I never
have captured that gold before.
>
> So, while you are still my friend, I decided I needed to send
you a little message for you to fully grasp the situation.
You're a good guy Daniel, but you are the guy who has something
that I want back. So, I'm sorry that it had to go down like it
did last week, but it needed to be done.
>
> Bryan takes his time before responding.
>
> Bryan: If that's the perception you had about me lately, then,
I'm sorry, okay. I never thought of myself as a better champion.
I know how much that title meant to you, Jeff... Like you know
how much it means to me as well.
>
> As for the rest, like I said after last week... If I would
have been in your shoes, I would have done the same thing. So
you don't need to apologize to me about it...
>
> But... There's still one thing about all of this that kinda
bugs me...
>
> Hardy: I'm glad you can see it from my perspective. What's
bugging you?
>
> Bryan: I've re-watched it over and over and over and over
again... Why did you hesitate back then?
>
> Don't tell me you didn't... I saw it in the replays... You
weren't sure about this, were you?
>
> Hardy: Of course, I wasn't sure about it! You're still my
friend and it wasn't like I'm a cold blooded criminal. I don't
want to do these things to you. I only do them because I want to
be the champion and you have to be willing to anything to be a
champion.
>
> Bryan: Well, I'm sorry if what I'm about to say is crazy to
some... But if you hesitated back then, what makes you think
that you won't hesitate come No Safe Haven?
>
> Hardy: Because a match is different than what just happened. I
have never hesitated in the ring to do what I must to win a
match. I have put my body on the line countless times. I have
fallen off of ladders and cages. If you think I'm going to
hesitate at No Safe Haven, you would be dead wrong.
>
> Bryan: I know you will give a great effort out there... I just
don't want a great effort from you...
>
> I want the man who defeated HBK twice and survived the Cage of
Death! This is the Jeff Hardy I want to see.
--- End Quote ---
We then see footage of the Cage of Death match and how Hardy won
the contest and the feud he had with Shawn.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
> Bryan: Because when I'll step inside this ring, the man in
front of me won't be my friend... He'll be an enemy to defeat...
>
> I will stretch every single bone of your body and I will kick
you until your body parts are numb, Jeff... That's as far as I'm
going to go to keep this belt, Jeff...
--- End Quote ---
We then see footage of Bryan in action, delivering strikes and
submissions to some of HCW's finest.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> Bryan: And as crazy it may sound... I would rather lose to the
Jeff Hardy I saw survive the Cage of Death than to beat a man
who thinks he's given his best effort but actually didn't...
>
> So, sorry about what I'm about to do...
>
> He suddenly slaps Jeff in the mouth, to the crowd's shock!
Hardy gets right in the face of Bryan. There is tons of rage
that Hardy is holding back.
>
> Hardy: You want that Jeff Hardy?! You'll get him....but not
tonight. At No Safe Haven, you will have the fight of your life
and I'm walking out with that championship!
>
> Bryan lets a small grin show on his face.
>
> Bryan: You'll better be that man, Jeff... Because you will
have to kill me inside this ring to take this title away from
me.
>
> Bryan suddenly extends his hand.
>
> Bryan: Before we get to No Safe Haven... As a friend... Good
luck!
>
> Hardy looks at Bryan's hand and looks up.
>
> Hardy: You wanted the man who was in the Cage of Death, right?
Well, he doesn't shake hands.
>
> Hardy drops the mic and exits the ring while Bryan simply
stares at him before he and the crowd start chanting Yes! in
unison. Jeff doesn’t care about that as he quickly goes behind
the curtain.
>

> Bryan: But at the end, so do I... At Birth of Destruction VII,
his loss was my gain but deep down inside, I know I'll never
feel like the International Champion unless I defeat the man who
was the champion before me... This is why I wanted to face Jeff
one-on-one at BOD VII but Ziggler blew that up and he ended up
being the loser...
>
> So I see No Safe Haven as a major opportunity to prove my
worth in this company and believe me, Jeff has the same thoughts
on the back of his head.
>
> Cole: Last week, you and Jeff had an in-ring segment where you
literally slapped the taste out of his mouth... You said back
then that you wanted the Jeff Hardy that had survived the Cage
of Death... Many people, including me, have thought that it
wasn't a good idea...
>
> Bryan: These people are entitled to their opinion and that is
great about America... Freedom of speech... You see, maybe it'll
be a mistake... But while I really want to prove myself as a
great International Champion... I actually am obsessed about
getting the absolute best of my opponents every single time I
compete and when I saw Jeff hesitate to hit that Swanton Bomb
the week before, I knew I had to do something.
>
> I've been competing all over the world, Michael... In Japan,
slaps are a way to get your opponent to throw everything he's
got into battle... While it may sounds weird... Jeff's
hesitation was like a slap on my face and what did was just
fighting back...
>
> At No Safe Haven, the Charismatic Enigma and his minions will
go head-to-head with the Yes Movement and at the end of the
night, win or lose... We won't leave anything behind and if that
ends our friendship...
>
> So be it...
--- End Quote ---
The video package ends with both men staring at each other.
TG: Man, that match has the potential to be very, very good.
I'll start with you, Mike... What should be Jeff's approach
going in to this International Title match?
Tenay: Well, Daniel wants to see the Jeff Hardy who defeated
Shawn Michaels in the first-ever Cage of Death match. If I'm
Jeff, I need to go all out and I need to keep the match to the
strong suite of Hardy, which is his aerial game. He can't go
toe-to-toe in the striking department, he's going to get hurt by
Daniel's lethal kicks and he can't get this match t the ground
because that would play into the biggest strength of the
champion, his submission skills.
But most of all, Jeff must dig deep inside and found that extra
gear that brought him the title in the first place.
TG: Excellent. Coach, you have seen Daniel Bryan compete
multiple times since he's in your show... How should Daniel
approach this title match against a friend which relationship
has been shaking a little in the last month or so?
Coach: Act as though it's your worst enemy for whatever distance
the match goes. If you go in with apprehension, a guy like
Hardy's going to beat you. Simple.
TG: Hunter, you were in the best seat to see these two compete
at Birth of Destruction VII...
HHH: Thanks for trying to remind me of that...
TG: Anyway, what can the fans expect when they see these two
very lovable wrestlers compete for the International Title?
HHH: First of all, I want to take just a quick second to tell
our beloved Co-CEO that as much as he wants to change results
around here, I know I've pinned the champion last week.
Now, that said, I'll admit that they are two of the most
exciting wrestlers on Collision... But nowhere near as exciting
as my partners of the Golden Generation, especially Dolph. Now,
while the match would have been a lot better with Dolph
replacing either of the two guys...
Tenay: Didn't happen, Hunter.
Hunter frowns at Tenay's words but simply shakes it off.
HHH: I do believe it'll be an intriguing contest and the fans
will surely love it for sure. More than me, though. I think I'll
take a bathroom break for that one...
Coach: Hunter, that's the first match of the evening...
HHH: I can have bathroom breaks when I want, Coach.
TG: Anyway, time for your predictions... Hunter?
HHH: I can't care less... Either of them is just a spotholder
until the Golden Generation reclaims what's theirs.
TG: Coach?
Coach: Hardy for the retain in a great match.
TG: Mike?
Tenay: It'll be a great contest... I just dunno if it was the
best of ideas for Daniel to try to summon the ruthless version
of Hardy and I think that it'll cost him the belt. But that will
be an outstanding contest, that's for sure.
TG: Thanks... I think we have Renee who has a guest with him.
Let's go to you!
RY: Ladies and gentlemen, my guest at this time... Hulk Hogan.

Re: No Safe Haven Pre-Show
DIR By: ControversyPersonified
Date: May 16, 2015, 3:38 am
---------------------------------------------------------
The Brooklyn's crown is pretty divided in their reaction to the
Fusion's GM, who comes to the set with his referee t-shirt on.
Hogan: Hello, Gorgeous Renee!
RY: Thanks, Hulk. We're moments away from No Safe Haven, event
where you'll have a part to play on. You will be the special
guest referee in the tag match involving S.C.U.M and the duo of
Shane Douglas and Ken Shamrock. Why take this job, Hulk?
Hogan: Because all people in the match have shown quite the
ability to go overboard inside this ring. S.C.U.M. have created
a lot of chaos in their short stint so far while we already know
what Shane and Shamrock can do in their own right. The match
needed someone that can control this situation and I think I am
the right guy for that job.
RY: The last time we saw you as a referee... Things didn't go
quite that well...
Hogan: That was all Kennedy's fault, back then. And all four
guys in that match knows the consequences of getting their hands
on me.
RY: Some people fear that your issues with Shane Douglas lately
could taint your judgment back there. What would you say to
these people?
Hogan: I'm not dumb to blatantly decide of the result of this
match. That would put a black eye on my excellent tenure as
Fusion's GM. I can assure you that I...
Hogan suddenly stops talking. We don't know why at first and who
is he staring to... Until the camera shows Shane Douglas on the
other side of Renee.
Douglas: Excellent tenure? Your tenure has been a joke you
f*cking Orange Goblin.
Hogan looks at Shane and his face is starting to begin to turn
red. He takes a deep breath.
Hogan: Listen, Shane... I dunno why you keep trying to get to my
nerves... I don't want you to turn like Kennedy, for God's sake!
Douglas: Once a liar, always a liar, Huckster. Remember that
time you were almost in Metallica? Good times, right?
Hogan: What the hell are you talking about?
Oh, I see... Are you trying to get under my skin, Shane? Are you
trying to force me to get involved in that tag match so that you
can use it to your advantage in your sudden quest to get rid of
me?
Douglas: The whole "you sped up the clock so I would lose the
Universal Title" thing should have been enough, to be honest.
Hogan: You're still coming up with this!!! Without any ****ing
evidence to prove it... Shane, I'm ****ing disappointed in you.
You had shown so much promise when you came back and when you
finally showed the world what the "Real" Shane Douglas was about
when you became Universal Champion!
But I guess the real Shane was all along the same man that
started Revolution, I guess...
I will call this match down the middle but I hope to see you and
Ken get destroyed out there so I can stop hearing you spit lies
all over MY show!
Douglas: I promise, you're way less disappointed in me than
everyone who ever bought a ticket to watch wrestling and ended
up watching you and your walrus mustache and orange spray tan
insult the word wrestling instead... was in you.
Hogan: Sincerely, Shane. Keep spitting the insults and I'll show
you who's the man here and who's the kid. I'll see you inside
the ring and you better not do anything stupid out there...
Douglas: You don't have to worry. You've cornered the market on
stupid, Thunderlips.
Shane leaves and Hogan, slightly irritated, leaves the area
shortly after.
TG: This upcoming match was announced two weeks ago but it is a
match who definitely has some intrigue. S.C.U.M. has made a
violent impact on HCW since their arrival and they have started
to target former Universal Champion, Shane Douglas and Ken
Shamrock. Jacobs and Lee will get to face these two in a tag
team match... And the wildcard could be Fusion's GM, Hulk Hogan,
who's appointed himself the special referee for this match.
Let's see how we got to this point.
HOW IT STARTED:
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> Shane Douglas is caught by a cameraman leaving the arena in
the outside parking lot. He dials a number on his phone as he
waits for a reply. Suddenly, the screech of a car fills the
atmosphere as Douglas, confused by the situation occurring,
mouths "what the-" before he met by Jimmy Jacobs, charging from
the exit of the arena, striking him from behind and starts
beating him down. However, Douglas gets the upper hands and
smashes Jacobs with a huge forearm, knocking Jacobs backwards,
before a big boot to the gut. Brodie Lee appears and makes it a
two-on-one attack, throwing Douglas into the car's door.
>
> Jacobs picks Douglas off the ground, as its driver opens his
door, before slamming the door onto his skull. Lee goes to pick
up the pieces, but before any more damage can be done, Hogan
runs out of the arena's back entrance with security following
him. Jacobs quickly nods to the driver, who speeds off leaving a
cloud of dust. Jacobs smiles at Lee as Hogan and his security
approach them. Hogan appears mad at the two, telling them off as
the cameraman is turned away by a security guard.

--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---

> Douglas: Jacobs, Lee, I owe you a major beatdown for what you
did to me, weeks ago... You'll learn what Vader learned last
week... And what usually every single man who wants a piece of
me usually learns...you don't Fuk with the Franchise!!!

--- End Quote ---
We then see footage of the handicap match involving Shane and
Jacobs/Lee.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> Jacobs goes to finish the match and picks up Douglas for a
powerbomb. Douglas, however, spins out, and nails an elbow then
his signature Pittsburgh Plunge. He covers, but Lee gets
involved and breaks up the pin. Lee gets sent out, as Douglas
pushes Lee. The referee breaks it up, before Jacobs hits a low
blow on Douglas with his back turned. Jacobs rolls across the
ring and tags in Lee. As Douglas gets to his feet, Lee
demolishes him with a short-arm lariat and covers him for the
win.

THE FORMATION OF A DANGEROUS GROUP...
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> The British Invasion’s theme song hits as the crowd gives a
rousing ovation to Wade Barrett, who comes onto the stage. He
comes down the ramp and enters the ring as he is handed a
microphone from ringside. He stands in the middle of the ring.
He listens to the crowd both boo and cheer as he smiles. He goes
to speak, but his mic doesn’t work. He taps on it, but it is
silent. He goes back to get a new microphone, but he notices two
men entering from the crowd on either side of the announcers
table, both hooded.
>
> From other parts of the crowd, the camera captures men coming
down through the crowd. From one side is Jimmy Jacobs wearing a
hooded jacket, while Brodie Lee comes from the other side,
ignoring all the fans. Barrett drops the mic that is given to
him to the mat and goes back to the middle of the ring. He looks
around as the two hooded men, Jacobs and Lee surround the ring.
All 4 men grab a chair from ringside and under the ring, before
each slowly entering. All of a sudden, the two hooded men enter
first and start smashing Barrett with chairs, knocking him down
to the ring. Jacobs and Lee join in, as all 4 men start beating
him down with chairs. After a minute or so of beating Barrett
down, Jacobs pulls out some cord from his jacket pocket and ties
up Barrett’s arms behind his back.
>
> Jacobs backs off and grabs a chair, before smashing a chair
over his head, splitting him open. He smiles and laughs, before
belting him over the top of the head again, blood pouring all
over his face. He swings again, this time the chair catching on
his head. Jacobs kicks Barrett in the back of the head, sending
the chair down and choking him in the process. The two hooded
men take off their hoods: one is a man with a black and green
mask with a small beard covering his face, the other is a rough
looking older man with scruffy hair and beard. Jacobs smiles and
yells at them with praise. Jacobs instructs them to grab
Barrett, before they drag him to the ropes and hanging him
upside down, a bloody Barrett facing the ring announcers. One of
them exists the ring and grabs a microphone and comes back in
and hands it to Jacobs. All four men stand in the ring and
Jacobs begins to talk, the crowd nearly silent after the beating
they witnessed.
>
> Jacobs: Ever since I entered this world, I have been thrown to
the ground and beaten and treated like trash. Nobody ever gave
people like me a chance, people like us. Ever since I entered
this company, I’ve proven myself time and time again and now is
the time to bring in my brothers, to bring in my army. We...we
are suffering. We are chaos. We are ugliness. We are mayhem. We
stand for everything you guys ignore. We...we are S.C.U.M.
>
> I, Jimmy Jacobs...I am the suffering. I have suffered day in
and day out, overcoming everything in my way only to be spat on
and thrown down to the ground. Brodie Lee represents chaos,
causing havoc and disorder everywhere he goes. Now, my friends,
these are my two new accomplices.
>
> Jacobs brings the two men forward and smiles.
>
> Jacobs: This is Delirious, he is ugliness, hideousness wrapped
up in a man, who nobody would give a chance. And this is Necro
Butcher, and he is mayhem, all his life igniting the flame of
turmoil and anarchy. And now, these two men, Lee and myself have
become a force in this company like nothing you’ve seen before.
We are S.C.U.M. We are not to be crossed. And everyone in the
back? If you don’t fear us yet...you better keep watching.
>
> Jacobs drops the mic and orders Delirious and Butcher outside
of the ring. As Lee unhooks Barrett’s leg, Delirious and Butcher
starts pulling the mat off the ground, revealing the cement
floor. Some of the ring attendants try to interfere but Lee,
Delirious and Butcher starts pushing them away and occasionally
knocking them to the ground with elbows. Lee throws Barrett over
the top rope into the laps of the announcers, whose equipment is
now not connected and knocked to the ground.Jacobs is now up on
the announcers table, as Lee puts Barrett face down in front of
him and lifts him up in front of him. Delirious and Butcher lift
Jacobs on top of Jacobs’ back, in the position for his signature
Barry White Driver.
>
> The crowd is dead silent, as Butcher and Delirious assist
Jacobs lift Barrett over Jacobs’ shoulder, as Jacobs sends
Barrett head first into the cement, right on his neck. Barrett
is now knocked out and his neck is slightly bent. Woman and
children in the crowd are screaming and crying as Jacobs begins
to laugh. He signals to his men to leave through the crowd as
paramedics start running down the entrance ramp to check on
Barrett. The crowd are completely shocked, as the cameramen
capture Jacobs leading his pack through the crowd. Paramedics
now have Barrett in a neckbrace and start boarding him onto a
stretcher as we fade to black.

We then see the footage of the tag match involving the other two
members of S.C.U.M. and the Shamrock/Douglas tag team on the
last Fusion before the PPV.
--- Quote from: pat2007 link ---
>
> Delirious rolls out of the ring as Jacobs starts laying into
Douglas with elbows and fists. Shamrock enters the ring and
grabs Jacobs from behind and pulls him off and locks in a
guillotine choke. Before long, Butcher is in the ring and helps
out Jacobs, helping him out of the choke, but Douglas is back
ready to hit a belly-to-belly on him. However, out of nowhere,
Lee enters the ring from the back and nails a huge short-arm
lariat on Douglas, knocking him down hard.
>
> A now recovered Delirious and Butcher starts stomping down on
Douglas as Jacobs and Lee do the same to Shamrock. Jacobs lifts
Shamrock to his feet and grabs his face with his hand and talks
down to him, before pushing him into Lee, who hits a cut-throat
driver on the mat. Delirious and Butcher gets Douglas on his
knees in front of Jacobs as he laughs hysterically. He positions
Douglas between his legs and points out to the crowd, before
nailing his signature Project Suffering, Douglas’ back driven
down into Jacobs knees. S.C.U.M. stand tall over the fallen
Douglas and Shamrock, their hands all raised in triumph.

at No Safe Haven, Shane and Ken will settle their differences

about sending a message before Money in the Bank but the son of

does that phase me? No, not at all. With Lee by my side, and
Delirious and Butcher in our corner, we're not going to lose,
Michael. I guarantee it.
--- End Quote ---
We end the video package with all four members of S.C.U.M.
standing over Shane and Shamrock.
TG: Jimmy Jacobs has made a hell of an impact in recent weeks,
and despite some loses, they seem to have the upper hand over
Shamrock and Douglas. But, what role do you think Hogan will
play tonight?
Tenay: There's no denying Hogan's disdain for Douglas, and that
will play a major part in who's victorious. I don't think this
match will be called down the middle.
TG: Coach, Hunter?
JC: Well, it doesn't matter if you're a former Universal
Champion or the most dangerous man on the planet...screwing with
the boss isn't good. It isn't good at all.
HHH: Judging by how Foley seems to flex his muscles these days,
if he had any that is... Hogan will have to be careful about his
actions...
That doesn't mean that I wouldn't love to see him screw over
Shane. That would be quite entertaining but I doubt it'll
happen.
TG: Well, in saying that, who do we think will pick up the
victory tonight?
Tenay: S.C.U.M., while they have the numbers, haven't been
successful in actually beating Shamrock and Douglas in in-ring
competition, Douglas and Shamrock are two of the most impressive
Fusion wrestlers at the moment. But, with Hogan as referee, the
monopoly is in his hands, so I honestly think that Hogan no
doubt knows who the winner is already.
JC: S.C.U.M. Due a win for me, and this makeshift tag team won't
stop them.
HHH: I hate Shane, so of course, I am picking for S.C.U.M... I
always favor the stable over a newly-formed tag team.
TG: S.C.U.M. vs. Douglas and Shamrock, there is no denying, will
be a hell of a hard-hitting match...but now we're back to the
ring!

Homicide is standing in the ring, awaiting the next person to
answer the tire iron challenge.
Homicide: Odelay, Vato! Come on, who wants $5 000 in the Tire
Iron Challenge? Who thinks he’s tough enough to get up before a
count of ten after getting hit by the greatest finishing move in
the history of wrestling… The Tire Iron Smash!
Finally, none other than the Brooklyn Brawler shows up, to a big
pop from the fans. Homicide awaits for him to come. Brawler
enters the ring and poses for the fans.
Homicide: You sure, homes?
Brawler nods his head before getting the crowd hyped. Suddenly,
without even being ready, Homicide smashes him between the eyes
with his tire iron. The crowd boos him hard as he asks for the
ref to start the count.

Homicide: Sorry, homes! I guess you weren’t tough enough to
survive the greatest finishing move of all-time!
Crowd boos as Homicide leaves the ring. Medical staff looks at
Brawler, who’s still down and out in the middle of the ring.
JBL: That was quick! Maybe Homicide’s right!
Cole: What the hell are you talking about? Using a pipe is not a
finishing move…
JBL: Well, it did finish Brawler for good…
Cole: Anyway, we’ll go back to the Pre-Show Panel. Back to you,
guys!
TG: Now it's time for our penultimate preview, which is up their
in the level of intrigue. The Mean Girls have been doing their
best lately to off-set The Shield...has it worked? Let's see.
First we see the tag team division dominance from The Shield.
Then:

fans. They made their usual entrance. Jacobs and Lee got the
same kind of reaction as they made their way to the ring for
this big matchup.

> Jacobs and Torrie start off the match and lock up, before
Jacobs locks in a headlock before taking her down with a reverse
DDT. As Torrie gets back up, Jacobs goes for a clothesline, but
Torrie ducks down and hits a kick to the midsection and hits a
DDT. Wilson panders to the crowd while touching her body, before
irish whipping Jacobs into the ropes. As Jacobs comes off, he
takes Torrie down with a huge clothesline. Jacobs laughs ****ily
before he looks at Keibler. This provides a distraction, as
Torrie climbs the top rope and hits a flying crossbody, but
Jacobs rolls through and covers, but Wilson kicks out at two.
Jacobs gets Torrie up on his shoulders and goes for a TKO, but
Torrie rolls down with a crucifix pin, however Jacobs kicks out.
Jacobs angrily picks Torrie up, slips behind and hits a huge
German suplex onto the mat. Torrie gets to her feet and hits an
elbow to Jacobs and then hits a rolling cutter. Torrie tags in
Stacy who viciously starts stomping on Jacobs.
>
> Stacy picks up Jacobs and hits some elbow smashes into his
face, before attempting a tornado DDT, nailing it in the middle
of the ring. Jacobs kicks out before Stacy hits a leg drop for
another cover, this time Jacobs kicking out of quicker. Stacy
gets back up, but Jacobs hits a quick enziguri that knocks Stacy
to the ground. Jacobs tags in Lee who takes Stacy down with a
big boot. Lee locks in a front facelock and starts his Gator
Roll signature move. She picks Stacy up off the mat and nails a
sitout scoop slam. Torrie enters the ring as the referee
attempts to stop her, but Torrie pulls at Lee’s hair before
Stacy joins in. They attempts to whip him to the ropes, but he
doesn’t budge, and they’re met with a double clothesline. Lee
picks Stacy back up and drags her over to Jacobs. Lee holds her
back as Jacobs hits a stiff springboard knee to the face. He
covers, but Stacy kicks out.
>
> Jacobs locks in a reverse facelock and goes for a backbreaker,
but Stacy kicks Jacobs in the head repeatedly, before hitting a
hurricanrana, sending Jacobs into the mat. She crawls over to
Torrie and tags her in. Torrie comes in and goes for a spear,
but Jacobs raises his knee. Torrie goes for a clothesline, and
nails it, before chocking Jacobs with her boot. Jacobs grabs her
foot and tries to throw him down, but she steps harder, then
stomps on his chest. Jacobs throws her foot away and attempts to
get up, but Torrie delivers a bulldog into the mat. She tags
Stacy back in, and they hits a double clothesline on Jacobs.
Jacobs comes back up straight after and attempts his own
clothesline, but Stacy ducks. Before Stacy can respond, Jacobs
nails a superkick and goes for the cover, but Stacy kicks out at
two and a half. Jacobs complains to the ref for the count being
two slow, as Stacy attempts to get back to her feet. Jacobs
yells and says he’s going to end the match now, and goes for his
Devil Lock DDT, but Stacy spins out and around and attempts a
fisherman’s suplex, but Jacobs spin outs himself. Jacobs hits a
huge kick to the midsection and puts Stacy between his leg, and
gets into the Gory lock of his Barry White Driver. Torrie enters
the ring and hits a side kick to Jacobs’ stomach, letting Stacy
slip out. Torrie runs over to Lee on the apron and hits a
dropkick, sending him groggy. Jacobs is, however, back up, and
runs to the ropes, but he’s met with a huge Kiebler Kick out of
nowhere. Keibler covers and gets the win for the Mean Girls.

better with a palm blow to the mouth of the bearded member of
S.C.U.M. He tagged in Rollins but Lee gained the advantage and
then tagged in Jacobs, who started to fight with the man who had
a chat with him earlier this week. That didn’t well for Jacobs,
as Seth fought back and took control of the match with some
high-impact moves.

fresh. A double clothesline from Rollins and Jacobs to each
other gave an opportunity for an hot tag…

trying to smash his head into the turnbuckle by countering it
with a beautiful enzuigiri that drops her down to the mat. After
some more back-and-forth, Wilson got the better of Rollins with
a swinging neckbreaker and the crowd suddenly started to chant
“Take It Off” to Torrie. They were talking about the wrestling
pants she was wearing. Torrie teased it before not doing it and
mocking the fans, to heavy boos.

Torrie with a Northern Lights Suplex for a two count. Then, we
got some more back-and-forth action for the rest of the match
with both wrestlers nearly getting the win with some of their

kicked out of the Torrienado DDT. Seth went for the Curb Stomp

Rollins/Wilson match and once again hyped the Synergy Tag Team
Title match of No Safe Haven.

> Reigns dominated early on with his Samoan abilities and
strength and that forced Stacy to leave outside the ring to
discuss strategy with her partner. She returned inside the ring
and it was more of the same again... But then Torrie distracted
Roman for a short period, which was good enough to allow Stacy
to fight back as we went to a commercial break.
>
> Back from the break, Keibler was using all the tactics she
could use to keep the Shield's powerhouse down. Hair pulls, boot
chokes... Everything she could do, she did... But Reigns is one
tough Samoan and he started to fight back with several
high-impact moves and the tide of the match started to turn.

> After some more minutes, Reigns hit the Superman Punch on
Keibler as the crowd was ready for him to finish this match.
Once again, Torrie tried to distract the Shield's powerhouse but
Rollins was quick to pull her off the apron. Torrie answered
that... By literally kissing Seth in the mouth! The crowd
couldn't believe it... And so did Reigns... That was all Stacy
needed as when Roman turns around, he met the Keibler Kick and
that was all she wrote for Reigns as Stacy picks out the big,
yet a little weird, win.

to throw Torrie out of the ring.

All we see is the quick end move of the four singles matches,
before a quick graphic of the match before returning to Grisham.
TG: One word that keeps coming up is that this match is
intriguing, and I agree...first off, Coach, what do you think
The Shield need to do to walk out of Brooklyn with the gold?
JC: They need to just go about the business the way that only
The Shield can. Hell, if Ambrose is there, not that I condone
such behaviour, he may be around to spark a change. Who knows.
TG: Ok, Hunter, what about The Mean Girls...what should there
strategy be?
HHH: I know I am getting redundant... They must bring a truly
mean attitude in this match. I have seen Roman and Seth go since
the Shield arrived on the scene and they are dangerous at all
times because they don't play nice out there.
The ladies must match and even surpass the Shield in that part
of the game. Then, they will have chances
TG: Right, over to you Mike, do you think that the earlier
Singles series of matches we had give any indication of how this
one might go?
Tenay: No. Not many of them were the cleanest of finishes, and
this is tag team action, not singles. I don't see any connection
between the two really.
TG: Prediction time, HHH?
HHH: As much as I would want to see the ladies win the belts...
I can't see them finding a way to beat the Shield...
Mostly because they ain't the Golden Generation. If it was Owens
and Ziggler facing them, I would have 100% confidence to see new
champions
TG: Do you see the belts staying on Collision Coach?
JC: Yup...Shield win for me.
TG: And you Mike?
Tenay: Yeah, The Shield for sure.
TG: Ok, now we've got our last interview of the evening...and
this one is special. Very special...Renee?

Renee Young is with someone who we can only see the bare arm of.

Universal Championship...Brutus Magnus...how do you feel Brutus?
BM: I feel up for it Renee, I feel ready.
RY: So, Brutus...how do you feel going into the biggest match of
your career?
BM: Strange and apprehensive. Renee Young, do you think a person
and superstar like me doesn't appreciate the honour, the
privilege, the responsibilities and the effort it takes to
become champion? Because you'd be right. I don't have a clue. I
intend on doing some on the job training, as I'm a lone wolf and
don't have advice on tap from former champions...Cody Rhodes has
defeated people who have won battle royale to face him, Money in
the Bank winners, former Universal champions and more. I come
into none of that criteria. He's even won and defended at Pot of
Gold against seven other men...I was one of them, Cody. You
remember? Back then I was too busy being ordered to make sure
Paul and Doug left with the tag team belts...
I'm ready Cody. I'm ready.

athleticism and a little bit of help from his mentor, William
Regal to control the rest of the match.
>
> Goldberg thought he had the match won after hitting a
Spear/Jackhammer combo on Magnus but Burke broke the count.
Elijah thought he had the match won after hitting the Elijah
Express on Goldberg but Magnus broke the count before throwing
Elijah out of the ring. Magnus then hits the flying elbow drop
on Goldberg but Burke somehow broke the count.
>
> The action spilled outside where Goldberg tried to spear
Magnus but he ducked and Goldberg went through the guardrail!
Magnus and Burke went back-and-forth inside the ring and Elijah
thought he had the match won with the Elijah Experience but
Magnus, with a little help from Regal, got his foot on the rope.
Elijah went after Regal and took him out with an Elijah
Experience as well.
>
> That allowed Magnus to nearly steal the match with a rollup
and an handful of tights but Elijah kicked out at the last
second. He would turn right into the Mag Daddy Driver, though,
as Magnus got the three count and his opportunity for the
Universal Championship.
>
>
> Winner and NEW #1 Contender: Magnus at 38:39
>
> Match Rating: ****1/4
>
>
> Cole: Magnus will face Cody Rhodes for the Universal
Championship at No Safe Haven!
>
> JBL: What a month for Magnus… He was a part of the group that
ended the Invasion at BOD VII… Now, he could be the next
Universal Champion!
>
> Tenay: That promises to be an intriguing contest. Regal and
Hunter will probably be at rinsgide… I just dunno how the crowd
will react to these two facing off. Those are two of the biggest
bad guys the company has at the moment.

> We return from the break with Magnus' music playing and him
making his way down to the ring to a few boos. Regal is with
him. The Golden Generation music hits and out comes Ziggler and
Triple H to boos. Brutus Magnus is looking confused, Regal not
so. Brutus cuts Ziggler and HHH off before either man can say
anything.
>
> BM: Hold up a second...I see no Universal Champion?
>
> HHH: Cody has an interview going on, right now.
>
> Ziggler: And besides, Brutus... Cody will see you when he
wants to see you.
>
> BM: An interview? So he sent out his lackeys to talk to me
instead...I bet he's just hiding out backstage
somewhere...CODYYYY!!
>
> Regal steps in front of Magnus.
>
> WR: Look, Brutus, you don't know what it's like to be
Universal Champion and if you start shouting the odds you never
will. I do know what it's like, and you are constantly hounded
by the media...so what if Cody is taking a breather...these two
men are two of HCWs greats...they can represent the champ just
fine.
>
> HHH: Listen to the veteran, Brutus... He kinda knows the
drill... Former Universal Champion as well... Although I can't
remember anything memorable he did back then...
>
> Ziggler: Nicely said, Hunter
>
> BM: Well I thought this was going to be a party, but not to
the theme of kissing each others arses...
>
> The crowd pop, possibly Magnus' first ever Non-UK Pop.
>
> BM: Now, what I want to know is if the champion has got any
words he'd like to deliver to me that he can't be bothered to
deliver himself?
>
> Ziggler: Does Cody has any words for us to deliver to you?
Good question...
>
> HHH: He simply wants me to remind you of the facts that
surround you, Magnus...
>
> Cody Rhodes has had the longest Universal Title reign of
all-time!!! He has been at the top, or close to, of the mountain
for the last two years...
>
> [I]HHH didn't look like he was finished, but Magnus jumps
in.[/I]
>
> BM: Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know the facts Hunter, we know the
facts. I'm after opinions...is Cody Rhodes prepared...for The
Mag Daddy?
>
> Hunter and Ziggler both smile...
>
> HHH: Cody has always been prepared to face anyone and
anytime... But... Look, I know you are a former Synergy Tag Team
Champion and a member of the stable that ended... No, Bret ended
it, I forgot... Still, we know your credentials...
>
> Ziggler: But is Brutus Magnus ready for the greatest champion
of all-time?
>
> Magnus goes to respond but Regal does instead.
>
> WR: Indeed, thanks for mentioning that. Look, I'll take this
one Brutus. Sure, Brutus Magnus is a Two Time tag team champion.
Sure, he's made his name in a stable...but he's ready for
Singles competition. Just ask Elijiah Burke, just ask Bill
Goldberg, just ask the Big Show....is he ready for Cody Rhodes?
Guess we'll just have to wait and see. I don't even know that
myself...
>
> Magnus shots a furious look at Regal that Regal can not see.
>
> WR: I just want you to know that I'll be at ringside to see
the two best HCW has and seeing if Brutus can pull off what's
not expected of him. I expect Brutus to put in a good display,
no doubt...this will be a stepping stone, for sure...but if
there was one person I could pick him to lose too, and I'm sure
Brutus would agree with me...it'd be Cody. See you out there.
>
> Regal offers his hand to HHH, who shakes it. He offers the
same to Ziggler, who also accepts.
>
> WR: Now Brutus, shake the hands of these men...take your
potential defeat like a true man who endorses the spirit of
myself and The British Invasion.
>
> BM: William. I've never ever said this to you, but here goes.
Shut up.
>
> Regal looks shocked. Even HHH and Ziggler are taken aback. The
crowd pop though.
>
> BM: You're wrong, you're so wrong William. Number one being
I'm not living through the spirit of you or The Invasion. I'm
living through my own spirit. Number two, if there was a person
I was to chose to lose to? What kind of defeatist attitude is
that? And number three...no, you won't be present to see me as
you put it “Brutus can pull off what's not expected of him.”
>
> Regal pulls a quizzical look.
>
> BM: You see, while Big Nose here was out acquiring signatures,
I was looking out for a signature of my own...and here it is. In
black and white...Roddy Piper's authorization...and what does it
say?
>
> “Dear Mr. Piper.
>
> I'd like to request that my manager William Regal be banned
from managing me in my Universal Title match at No Safe Haven.
I'd also like to request that he be banned from ringside. I'd
also like to request that he be banned from the arena, should he
get the urge to not follow any of the above criteria.”
>
> The crowd love it!
>
> BM: “Signed...Brutus Magnus.”
>
> The crowd cheer again.
>
> BM: So William, you can watch it wherever you like...home, a
pub, a cinema...wherever. Cos it won't be here. As for you two,
you tell the champ that...
>
> Magnus goes to turn round toward HHH and Ziggler but Ziggler
is waiting for him with a Superkick. Magnus is quick though and
ducks it, but the kick nails Regal square in the jaw! Everyone
stands still for a couple of seconds, before HHH spins Magnus
round looking for a Pedigree, but Magnus lifts him in a firemans
carry and dumps him over the top rope! Ziggler however catches
him this time with a Super Kick, and is measuring him for a Zig
Zag, but Magnus manages to stop him and send him right over the
top rope again, hitting Triple H on the way down!Magnus poses
while his music plays to quite a few cheers.
>
> JBL: How dumb is Brutus Magnus? You can't force out one of the
greatest managers of all-time in your biggest match ever?
>
> Tenay: Look, I'll admit that I ain't a Magnus guy... But good
for him to stand his ground and show the world that he has what
it takes to compete against the Universal Champion.
>
> Cole: I dunno if he can beat Cody Rhodes but it's better that
he has that confidence in him. A losing attitude won't get him
nowhere at No Safe Haven.

> [center]Singles Match
> Brutus Magnus vs Brodie Lee[/center]
>
>
> Brodie Lee was already inside the ring as he awaited for his
opponent to come. Magnus then arrived, to several cheers from
the fans. The announcers hyped the Universal Championship Match
at No Safe Haven and wondered if it was the right call for
Magnus to not allow Regal to be at ringside for that match.
>
> Lee dominated early on using his size to deliver some pain to
the number one contender. Every time Magnus tried to mount any
momentum, Lee had all the answers to cut it short. Brodie then
tried to hit a Tombstone Piledriver but Magnus slid out of the
predicament and hit a back suplex for a two count.
>
> After some back-and-forth, Lee thought he had the match won
after a nasty short lariat but Magnus kicked out at 2.5. Then,
he tried for the Cut-Throat Driver but Magnus blocked it and
grabbed Lee before hitting Snake Eyes and following with that
high knee to the jaw of the S.C.U.M. member. He followed it with
a flying back elbow for a near fall.
>
> Magnus kept the momentum high and he had Lee in position for
the Diving Elbow Drop but suddenly, Cody ran from the back and
pushed him down the mat. The ref did saw it though, so he had no
choice but to DQ Lee.
>
>
> [center]Winner: Magnus at 20:18
>
> Match Rating:**1/2[/center]
>
>
> Cody started to mock the fans before preparing to hit Cross
Rhodes. He has Magnus in position but the number one contender
blocks it and knocks him down with a spinebuster. He then throws
the champion out of the ring, to the crowd's cheers. He wants
the champ to come back inside the ring and Cody nearly obliges
but he simply decides to leave, telling his No Safe Haven's
opponent that he won't beat him when the time to fight will
come.
>
> Cole: Cody thought he would gain the momentum in this battle
but Magnus looks pretty good against our champ, these days.
>
> Tenay: You gotta wonder if dropping Regal was actually an
outstanding idea, an idea that could lead him to the top of the
mountain...
>
> JBL: You are dreaming, guys... Cody Rhodes loves to crush
people's dreams... He'll do just that at No Safe Haven, you'll
see...
>
> We go to commercial with a split screen sight of both men
going towards the ring.

The package ends as we look at big moves from both mens arsenal
before going back to the skybox.
TG: Our man event is set to be a good one! First it's
Coach...what has Cody got to do to beat Magnus and will it be
easy for him?
JC: No Universal title defence is easy, Todd. As for what he'll
have to do to beat Magnus, he'll just have to watch that Mag
Daddy Driver and I think he'll be fine. To my knowledge, no one
has kicked out of it yet.
TG: I think you're right, how about what Brutus Magnus needs to
do Mike?
Tenay: He's just got to forget about how this moment is the
biggest moment of his life. If he carries that ideology, he's
going to lose in a very short amount of time.
TG: Triple H, I know how you feel about this one...say if Brutus
Magnus was facing someone else other than Cody Rhodes, could he
be Universal Champion?
HHH: See... It's a thing to be a 2-time Tag Team Champion... And
to be a tag champion, you got to be a good singles wrestler. But
to be an Universal Champion, you got to be a great singles
wrestler.
Will he accomplish that in his career? Tonight will show us his
potential.
TG: Our last few predictions. We'll start with you Mr. Tenay?
Tenay: I got to say Rhodes. Got to.
TG: Let me guess Triple H, a Rhodes win?
HHH: Magnus will give Cody a great test just like everyone
facing him seems to do... But he won't win...
TG: And finally to you Coach?
JC: As much as I'd like the title to still be on
Collision...miracles happen. Magnus for me.
TG: That's it folks...that's it. From me, Jonathan Coachman,
Triple H, Mike Tenay, Matt Striker and Renee Young...enjoy No
Safe Haven!
