VS.

Lance Storm & Tyson Kidd vs. The Jersey Shore

Lance Storm and Tyson Kidd team up in Lance Storm’s first match since being injured a few weeks ago by Suicide and Manik. Rowdy Roddy Piper is keeping a watchful eye out for masked vigilantes while also being incredibly entertaining on colour commentary for this one. Storm has a little bit of ring rust, but it does not hinder his performance. Although, he does end up playing the role of the babyface in peril for a while and both Robbie’s make a point of targeting his back. However, Storm eventually mounts a comeback when he rolls out of the way of a Robbie E splash attempt. Storm gets up and blocks a charge attempt with a superkick that knocks Robbie E silly. He makes the tag and Tyson Kidd comes in to show off his flashy move set on both of the Robbies. The end comes when Tyson Kidd gets Robbie E in a sharhooter. Robbie T breaks it up, but Lance Storm is quickly there to take him out of the picture. Kidd recovers quick enough to block Robbie E’s offensive attack and put in the Dungeon Lock for the submission win.

Official Decision: Lance Storm & Tyson Kidd win by submission

After the match ends, Rowdy Roddy Piper tells Ed Whalen and Jeremy Borash that he’s going to enter the ring because now is when the real fun begins. He drops the headset and joins Storm and Kidd. Piper asks for the music to be cut. Piper calls on Commissioner Billy Two Rivers to join the trio in the ring for a very special announcement.

Out comes Commissioner Two Rivers. He enters the ring and shakes hands with the trio of faces. Piper produces a couple of pieces of paper from the pocket of his leather jacket. He asks us if we all remember what this is. Last week, “Marvelous” Marc Mero, dressed up as the Blue Blazer brought this wrestling match contract with him to the ring. It was all a ploy to attack Piper, who is still sporting a large bandage on his forehead as a result of the pen stabbing incident from last week. Piper says that neither the Blue Blazer, his cronies, nor Marc Mero took care to remove it from the ring when they were making their get away. Piper remembers that Commissioner Two Rivers and Emile Dupree thought it was a valid contract. Commissioner Two Rivers reiterates that it is a valid wrestling match contract for a match at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL and the match must be contested by both of the signing parties. Now, although it is signed “Blue Blazer” all eye witnesses saw Marc Mero sign the contract. Therefore, if another party were to sign the contact, he would face Marc Mero at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. Rowdy Roddy Piper says that is exactly what he wanted to hear. He gets out a pen and signs his name to the document. Piper promises he will get his revenge for what Mero did to his forehead.

But, we’re not done, Piper passes the mic over to Lance Storm, who says that he wants a moment to be serious with the AGPW Commissioner. Piper hands him another piece of paper. It is a letter of intent to sign a contract and join AGPW. He seeks to clarify if this document is still considered valid and gives it to Commissioner Two Rivers. He looks it over and announces that the document looks authentic and is accepted as a letter of the Blue Blazer’s intent to join AGPW. He goes on to say that he will prepare a contract for the Blue Blazer and expects him to sign it. If he does not sign it, he says that the Blue Blazer will be barred from all future AGPW events and will be charged with criminal trespassing if he is found on site at any future AGPW events. He gives the Blue Blazer one week sign a contract or else he may never show his masked face in AGPW again!

*Commercial Break 1*

VS. w/

Chris Candido vs. Yoshihiro Tajiri w/ Frenchy Martin

The match begins with Chris Candido bringing the fight to Tajiri. He’s going about a mile a minute in the early going. When he gets a moment to look at a camera, while he’s near the ropes, putting the boots to Tajiri, he gives Chris Hero a message – that this is the kind of beating he can expect when they face off again in two weeks. Candido is vicious and his attack is relentless, but an attempt at the New Jersey Jam misses the mark and allows Tajiri to get a breather. He bails from the ring to get some separation and more time to recover. As soon as Candido gets back to his feet, he goes out to the ring apron and tries for a running, diving axehandle smash, but Tajiri moves and lets Candido slam into the guardrail. This is the opening he needs to get back into this match and he takes advantage with a few stiff kicks to the back, followed by a vertical suplex on the outside! Tajiri rolls Candido into the ring and gives him a springboard double-foot stomp to the abdomen! He covers for the first pinfall attempt of the match. Candido kicks out. Tajiri continues to grind away at Candido, but he gets on the comeback trail after avoiding a double hand spring back elbow attack that sees Tajiri crash into the turnbuckles. Candido makes a valiant rally all the way back to nailing the New Jersey Jam. However, he can’t collect the win because Frenchy Martin is on the ring apron, distracting the referee. Candido gets frustrated, goes over and grabs Martin by the collar of his painter’s coat and flings him over the ropes and into the ring. The referee disqualifies him. He doesn’t seem to care, though. He puns Martin around and then prepares to give him a powerbomb. However, Martin is saved by Tajiri, who sprays green mist in Candido’s face! Tajiri collects Martin and they leave.

Official Decision: Yoshihiro Tajiri wins by disqualification

As we see Tajiri and Martin leaving ringside, we also see Chris Hero coming down to the ring. Candido is blinded and just unwittingly slugged out the referee, who was trying to check on him. Candido stumbles around the ring looking for the ropes but suddenly stops moving when he hears Chris Hero’s voice over the P.A. system. Hero is standing in the ring, where Candido can’t see him (even if he wasn’t blinded by the mist). Hero tells Candido that he’s falling apart at the seams and that he doesn’t stand a chance of defeating him at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. He acknowledges that Candido has vicious attacked him a couple of times in row and that Hero is a little bit worse for wear at the moment. However, he also recognizes that he’s gotten under Candido’s skin and brought a vicious streak out in him. However, Hero says, that anger will consume him and be his downfall. After all, just look at the mess it has gotten him into, tonight. Hero says that getting blinded by the mists of Tajiri is but only one of Candido’s problems. Now, Hero has quietly walked up right behind Candido and he softly speaks into the microphone, his biggest problem is right behind him. He drops the microphone. Candido turns around and wildly swings at nothing but air. Hero ducked his haymaker, then he spins and knocks Candido out with a nasty hangman’s elbow. Hero puts a foot on Candido’s chest, raises his fist in the air and counts out with his fingers: one, two, three!

*Commercial Break 2*

“Marvelous” Marc Mero and Candice Michelle are found backstage. They seem have have just arrived at the arena. SoCal Val rushes over to get a word with them. Mero and Candice Michelle both look to be in a wonderful mood and love the attention. They accept the interview. SoCal Val’s very first question is for their reaction to the earlier contract signing. They both claim to be ignorant of whatever happened as their limousine satellite feed was out. They ask Val what happened. They tells them and Mero loses his cool. Candice Michelle frantically asks Val where they can find Commissioner Two Rivers while Mero throws clangy poles around (because it’s always fun to throw around harmless clangy poles when you are angry).

We turn things over to Marc Blondin, who is standing by with the man of the hour, the man with the power, too sweet to be sour, the ladies’ pet and the mens’ regret – it’s none other than “Superstar” Billy Graham, with “Classy” Freddie Blassie in tow. Blondin begins by asking Graham whether he believes he’ll be victorious in his match against Christian Cage, tonight. Graham shoots him a dirty look from beneath his pink tinted sunglasses and says nothing. Blassie takes the microphone from Blondin and says that is without a doubt the dumbest question he’s ever heard anyone ask the “Superstar”. He tells Blondin to look at Graham’s 22-inch pythons and then tell them whether he believes that Graham thinks he can win. Graham takes the microphone and says that if he wanted to, he could snap Blondin in half with the awesome might of his arms for asking such a stupid question. However, he’s reversing all of his power and energy for snapping Christian Cage’s skinny little twig of a spine in half, later tonight. Californiacation – first coined here as the new name of the AGPW wing of the Illuminati – is too mighty, powerful, and strong to be defeated by men who couldn’t cut it in the big show – men like Christian Cage. However, Graham says, he’s the biggest show of them all – the granddaddy of sports entertainment. He’s the man who sold out Madison Square Garden for Vince McMahon Sr. 95% of the time he headlined there. No one can claim to come close. And why did he sell it out so well? Because he gave the fans what they wanted, even if they didn’t know it yet. They wanted to see “Superstar” Billy Graham triumph over the latest also-rans who stepped up to the plate – and he did. He struck them out every time. And, tonight, Graham says, will be no exception. He’s going to conquer the native hero and prove to the world that Christian Cage does not have what it takes to beat “Superstar” Billy Graham and is not worthy of stepping into the ring with Hollywood Hulk Hogan.

*Commercial Break 3*

SoCal Val is backstage with The Fabulous Moolah to get her reaction to the challenge laid out by Gail Kim, last week, and the announcement that the two of them will compete against each other at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. Moolah says that it is apparent that Kim failed to get the message when she tossed her around the ring like a rag doll two weeks ago. Now she will say so that it is loud and clear – when you try to make Fabulous Moolah’s business, your business, you’re going to get hurt. It seems, Moolah says, that Gail Kim is too much of an idiot to recognize this and now she’s have to pay an even greater price in the form of the embarrassment of defeat. Nobody beats Fabulous Moolah and that’s not going to change at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL.

VS.

One Dirty Broad vs. Sensational Sherri Martel

ODB starts out the match large and in charge. Sherri struggles to get anything going, which gets her to become increasingly frustrated, which in turn causes her to lose her composure and decide to walk out on the match. However, ODB wants to continue the bout and won’t let her leave. She takes her back to the ring and continues on the offensive for a few more moments until going for the Bronco Muncher way too soon. Sherri moves out of the way and then takes control by putting the boots to ODB, pulling her hair and choking her while she’s on the mat. Sherri takes control of the fight and tries a couple of pinfall attempts, but ODB kicks out of all of them. Eventually, Sherri tires of the nearfalls and decides to go for the big finish. She takes ODB down with a snapmare and then kicks him spine hard. She climbs the turnbuckle and goes for the splash, but ODB rolls out of the way. Both women are down for the referee’s count and beat it out at the last possible second. Sherri charges at ODB, but gets taken down with a Lou Thesz Press. After wailing away on Sherri, ODB picks her up and lifts her into a fireman’s carry in anticipation of her finisher, Bam, but then just drops Sherri at the site of Maryse Oullet, slowly walking down the aisle. They get into a shouting match.

ODB leaves the ring to confront Maryse, but then stops when Magnus and Antonio Cesaro come out to back their manager. Then, Lance Cade and Trevor Murdoch rush out and attack Magnus and Cesaro from behind. Maryse decides to high tail it, but gets caught by ODB, who tackles her down to the ground. Officials come out to try to break things up. Meanwhile, the referee has awarded the match to Sherri as a result of a countout.

Official Decision: Sensational Sherri wins by countout

Back in the ring, after having her hand raised, Sherri turns around to face the fans on the other side of the around and have her hand raised. However, after turning around, she has this happen to her…

It’s Natalya Neidhart! She’s knocked Sensational Sherri out cold. She grabs a microphone and explains that she came out here to make a statement. If you continuously give other people a hard time, your going to get your head knocked off. Natalya continues by warning Sherri’s friends, the Canadian Ninjas, that they will suffer the same fate as Sherri the next time they try to mess with someone like Taylor Wilde or Mighty Molly.

*Commercial Break 4*

The Montréal Mafia takes over the ring the cut a promo about how it left each of their MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL opponents in total ruins last week. Unlike the last two weeks, the Mafia do not receive heroes’ welcome. They are soundly jeered as is usually the case. Frenchy Martin talks about how this won’t be revisiting an old rivalry with the Junkyard Dog and Bo Dallas. He says that it won’t be the first time that Dino Bravo and Mad Dog Vachon defend the North American Tag Team Titles against JYD and Dallas, but he promises that it will be the last time they face them. The Montréal Mafia are sick and tired of having enter their wrestling ring and getting involved in their affairs. Last week, when they entered the Lethal Lockdown cage was the final straw. Martin hands a microphone over to the International Heavyweight Champion, Yvon “Le Lion” Robert, who has a few words for Leo Burke and Dean Malenko. Robert cuts the promo entirely in French, while Martin translates for the benefit of the putrid Anglo masses. He firmly believes that Commissioner Billy Two Rivers has made a monumental mistake in granting them both a shot at his title. He doesn’t believe that either of them are worthy of it. He goes on to say that he understands that there is this rumour going around that he fears both men, but that couldn’t be further than the truth. To be sure, Robert states emphatically that he fears no man. He is the most accomplished wrestler to have ever come out of Québec. He has become a one man dynasty. He says that dynasties are formed by crushing every challenger that gets put in front of them. He ends his promo by telling Burke, Malenko and the fans not to expect anything different at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. This dynasty won’t be falling any time soon.

Leo Burke, Junkyard Dog, Bo Dallas and “The Iceman” Dean Malenko come onto the stage and show a united front against the forces of the Montréal Mafia. They each take turns talking and addressing their MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL opponents. Tajiri is not left out of the loop either as he gets a few choice words for his involvement in Lethal Lockdown, where he temporarily blinded Malenko. Each man stood at the entrance set understands that they will not be favoured to win their matches by the fans inside of the arena. However, they recognize that the fans from every other part of the country will be on their side and so even they won’t be able to feed off of the live crowd that night, they will have reason to continue to battle until the war is won. Last week’s defeat was but a temporary setback on the front lines. However, they’re looking to regain momentum and they want to get it back before MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL.

That’s the commissioner’s cue to come out and stop a brawl from happening before it can even get started. He likes welcomes the idea of seeing these sides battle one more time before MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. Therefore, next week, there will an 8-man tag team match featuring the Montréal Mafia versus Burke, Malenko, JYD and Dallas on Dynamite Saturday Night!

VS.

Samoa Joe vs. “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan

This match was signed by Commissioner Billy Two Rivers after last week’s attack on Samoa Joe by “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan and then, later, “Killer” Karl Krupp. Samoa Joe is out for revenge. He comes to the ring first. Kurrgan comes to the ring on his own. As soon as he walks over the top rope, Samoa Joe attacks with some stiff chops. Kurrgan weathers the storm, reverses an Irish whip attempt, and takes Joe down with a running clothesline and then keeps him grounded with a nasty standing leg drop. Kurrgan goes for an immediately pinfall attempt, but Joe kicks out. After a brief argument with the referee over the count, Kurrgan goes for the Kurrgan Claw, but Joe steps out of the way, gets Kurrgan down to the mat with a drop toehold and applies a Fujiwara armbar. Kurrgan twists and turns around enough to use his long frame to his advantage and get his feet on the bottom rope to break the hold. Joe won’t let him get up, however, as he drops his elbow to the back of Kurrgan’s head, twice. He rolls Kurrgan over and gives him a standing senton bomb. He pins, but Kurrgan kicks out. Joe applies a cravat, but after a while, Kurrgan gets up and breaks it up with some elbows to the sternum. Then Kurrgan gives Joe a scoop slam. He pins, but Joe kicks out. Kurrgan stomps away at him. He picks up Joe and whips him into the corner. Kurrgan runs in and goes for a jumping avalanche splash, but Joe moves out of the way. Kurrgan’s chest stomach hits the top turnbuckle hard. He comes out of the corner in a daze and Joe manages to lift him into a Samoan drop! Joe pins for a long 2-count. He gets up and waits for Kurrgan to try to get up. It looks like he’s preparing to give him to Coquina Clutch, but…

… “Killer” Karl Krupp arrives and provides a distraction. He jumps onto the ring apron. Joe runs at him but Krupp hops down. The distraction is long enough for Kurrgan to get up and take Samoa Joe over the top rope with a running clothesline. Once he’s down, outside of the ring, Krupp picks up from where he left off the week before, serving up a bevy of lashings from his riding crop! When the referee turns around to start counting him out, he sees what is going down and calls for the end of the match. At that point, Kurrgan knocks out the referee for the unfavourable call. He leaves the ring and scares off other AGPW officials who come out to try to stop the attack. It leaves Samoa Joe in a bad way, as Krupp won’t let up with his attack on Joe, until finally The Hurricane & Rosey come to the rescue, returning the favour to Joe from a few weeks ago!

Rosey brawls with Kurrgan, while The Hurricane hits Krupp across the back with a chair and gives him the Eye of the Storm on the floor! Finally, the AGPW officials step in. We get a look at Samoa Joe, while he’s down. His body has whip marks all over it from Krupp’s riding crop.

Official Decision: Samoa Joe wins by disqualification

SoCal Val is backstage with Taka Michinoku and Sho Funaki, the team of Kaientai, for a rare backstage interview. Val asks them if they believe they build momentum off Sho Funaki’s strong showing in the 24-man tag team battle royal from last week. Before they can even answer, some very shrill shrieking and loud unbearable screaming can be heard off camera. Taka and Funaki cover their ears and run away.

And onto the scene comes Sensational Sherri! Screaming at the top of her lungs. She takes the microphone out of Val’s hands and shoves her aside. Sherri screams her way through a short promo vowing revenge again Natalya Neidhart and challenges her to a match next week on Dynamite Saturday Night, where she promises to rearrange Nattie’s face.

*Commercial Break 6*

“Marvelous” Marc Mero and Candice Michelle arrive outside of a door marked Commissioner’s Office. There is a security guard standing by the door. Mero goes to open the door, the security guard gets in his way, tells him he is not allowed to go in there and that Commissioner Billy Two Rivers isn’t there anyhow. Mero doesn’t care and punks out the security guard. He tosses him head first into the brick wall, knocking the guy out. He and Candice Michelle go in. Two Rivers is nowhere to be found.

Instead, they find Suicide and Manik inside, tearing apart a filing cabinet and rummaging through a pile of papers on a desk. Everyone stops when they see each other. Mero asks what they are doing. Of course, they don’t speak. Candice Michelle tells Mero that there’s no point in being here and getting blamed for causing this mess, so they go look elsewhere for the Commissioner, while Suicide and Manik continue to tear the room apart, presumably looking for the Blue Blazer’s letter of intent.

Marc Blondin is standing by with Christian Cage. He asks Christian for his final thoughts on his match with “Superstar” Billy Graham before he goes into action. Christian says that he knows that he’s outsized and outnumbered. However, that’s no reason not to count him down and out. He’s made a fairly good living from proving all of the people who’ve counted him down and out wrong. Time and again it’s been said that he’s not good enough, not big enough, or that he doesn’t have what it takes to defeat men thought to be better than him in every measure. However, time and again, he’s proven them wrong. So, if you ask him whether he thinks he has a chance against the ever-imposing “Superstar” Billy Graham, “Captain Charisma” says that not only does he have a chance, he knows he can win, even with the odds stacked against him. Because that’s how he rolls!

*Commercial Break 7*

And, now, the Mash-Up Wresting Heavyweight Champion of the World!!!!! Hollywood Hulk Hogan is here. He joins Ed Whalen and Jeremy Borash at the ringside commentary table to call the action in this one. Christian Cage is going to have to feel like the Illuminati is stacking the cards against him with Hogan on commentary and “Classy” Freddie Blassie at ringside. How is this one going to shake out for him? Let’s find out.

w/ VS.

“Superstar” Billy Graham w/ “Classy” Freddie Blassie vs. Christian Cage

This match gets going with Christian Cage showing that he’s not intimidated by “Superstar” Billy Graham’s awesome physique, when he walks right up to him and starts running his mouth as him. However, Graham packs some awesome strength inside of that awesome physique and just shoves Christian to the mat and then flexes. Graham challenges Christian to a test of strength that he’s certain his opponent cannot win. Christian moves in to make like he’ll lock up, but kicks Graham and then gets him into a side headlock. Graham backs into the ropes and sends Christian running across the ring. Christian tries to knock him down with a shoulderblock, but Graham is immovable. He tries it a second time and again, he has no luck. Christian goes to the ropes a third time. Graham goes for a clothesline, but Christian ducks it and takes Graham down into a crucifix pin for a two count. They get up and Christian tries to sneak an Unprettier past him, but Graham shoves him away and then runs through him with a clothesline. Graham picks him up and lifts him over his shoulder with a waistlock and rams him into the turnbuckle, where he beats Christian down to the mat with his fist. Graham brings him back to his feet and gives him some chops. He twists Christian’s arm around in an armbar and then gives him a cross-corner Irish whip. Graham runs in and takes a boot to the face. Christian gets up onto the second turnbuckle and takes Graham down with a diving dropkick. He goes for the first cover of the match, but Graham kicks out.

Christian keeps on him and builds momentum with a steady attack, using his seed to take Graham down and then applying various holds to wear the big man down. Christian starts looking to pick up the victory. He goes for a few more maneuvers with higher impact and follows with pinfall attempts, but he can’t put Graham away. He goes for a Boston crab in the middle of the ring, but Graham uses his incredible strength to lift up into a plan position and crawl to the ropes. Christian gets right back on the attack with some slaps to the chest. He goes for a whip into the corner, but Graham reverses it and follows with a charge. Christian hops onto the second turnbuckle and goes for a blind cross-body block. However, Graham catches him, spins him around and gives him a backbreaker! He pins, but Christian kicks out at two. Graham picks him up and whips Christian into the corner. He comes into the corner and gives Christian some back elbow shots to the side of the head. Graham lifts Christian up onto the turnbuckle and climbs up, but Christian fights him off and knocks him down to the canvas. Christian leaps from the turnbuckle, but Graham gets his foot in the air and connects it with Christian’s jaw.

Both men take a bit of time to get up. When they do they go to exchange blows and Christian starts to get the better of the exchange. Graham backs away and begs him off like a cowardly heel. The momentary hesitation before Christian goes for a final strike gives Graham the opportunity to thumb him in the eye and then give him a falling forward suplex. Graham rolls him over and covers, but Christian kicks out just in time. Now, Graham begins to build momentum. There is nothing scientific about his attack. It’s all based on the power of his hand and foot strikes, as well as the tight, powerful grip he gets on a chinlock that makes you feel like he might actually achieve a submission with the move. Christian eventually feeds off of the crowd and breaks the chinlock. He runs to the ropes, but upon coming back, he runs right into Graham’s bear hug!

One assumes that Christian is bound to submit. He gets flung around like a rag doll, but refuses to give up. Eventually, he creates a bit of separation and breaks the hold with a series of punches to the forehead. Then, Christian tries to kick Graham, but he grabs his foot. Christian follows up with an enzigurri kick and again both men are down. They both get up just in time to beat the referee’s 10-count. Graham tries to lock on a full nelson, but Christian is too quick and slides out the back before he can get his second arm in place and applies the full nelson on Graham, but then gets rocked with a rear mule kick that the referee doesn’t see thanks to the distraction of “Classy” Freddie Blassie. Graham delivers a hard knee drop to the forehead and gives a lazy pin, allowing Christian to get his shoulder up right in the nick of time. Graham picks up Christian and tries to whip him, but Christian reverses with a short-arm pull in for a kick to Graham’s abdomen and then nails the Unprettier!

He pins Graham. 1…2… kick out! Graham beats the 3-count by mere milliseconds. “Classy” Freddie Blassie looks like he’s about to have a heart attack. Hollywood Hulk Hogan sounds like he was about to die on commentary. Graham is still in it, but he barely beat the referee’s count, so now it is time to panic. For his part, Hogan goes back to saying that he knows that Graham can pull this one out on his own. While he says that, Freddie Blassie gets on the ring apron and grabs the referee’s attention. Meanwhile, Christian mounts the turnbuckle and punches Graham to the count of ten. He gets down in time to see Bad Influence storming out to the ring.

Kazarian slides into the ring and charges at Christian. He steps to the side and helps guide Kazarian right over the top rope opposite from the side he came in on. Christopher Daniels is up next and Christian connects with a dropkick. He picks up Daniels and chucks him through the ropes, into Kazarian. Christian goes to deal with Blassie. He puts his hands on Blassie, prompting Hogan to get up from the commentary table, but only for a moment, as the referee tries to get between Christian and the ropes and manages to free up Blassie. Meanwhile, Graham charges and bodychecks Christian from behind, causing the referee to go down. Graham goes to pick up Christian, but receives a low blow and a second Unprettier. Christian checks on the referee, but gets attacked by Daniels and Kazarian. However, that attack doesn’t go unchecked, as the Macho Madness arrives to break it up!

Savage hits everything in sight! He’s all over Daniels and Kazarian, and removes both of them from the ring. Then, he gives Graham a hair-pull hangman as his way of exiting the ring and continuing to assault on Bad Influence. Meanwhile, Hogan has left the broadcast table to attack Christian. After laying him out on the mat and punching him repeatedly, he asks Blassie to give him his World Title belt. Hogan waits for Christian to get up. He’s sizing him up. Meanwhile, Graham is also stirring. Graham gets up and sees Christian getting up with his back to him. Graham approaches him from behind. Hogan charges at Christian and swings for the fences. Christian sees him coming and ducks. Hogan takes out Graham! He takes a moment to express that his anger over belting his friend in the head. Then, he turns his attention back to Christian, who is pretty tired out at this point, but on his feet. Hogan goes for him again, but gets tackled from the side by the Macho Man! He rolls out of the ring with Hogan. The referee has regained consciousness and Christian sees Graham lying motionless on the mat. He pins. 1…2…3! Christian Cage wins and will face Hollywood Hulk Hogan at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL!

Official Decision: Christian Cage wins by pinfall

After the match, Christian Cage grabs the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Championship from off of the canvas and raises it in the air. The camera focuses in on him holding the strap in the air. Could Christian Cage become the next Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion? Find out in two weeks at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL, on Sunday, December 29 only on pay-per-view!

[somethingsavage]

Supreme madness in that main event today, man. Loved every bit of it though. Purely fun stuff to pull together all your top-tier programs. Blassie's expressions at ringside? Priceless. Hogan sitting in for commentary? Cool touch that took me back to the things Hall & Nash would do on commentary during the nWo's heyday. The Bad Influence run-in helped to elevate both their stock within Blassie's Cali connection AS WELL as the importance of this specific match. But Randy's appearance at the end is what sent everything clearly over the top for me. He shot a hot finish into orbit & out of the stratosphere, man. Just a tremendous way to close out another strong episode of TV, in my eyes.

You've really racked up a series of stellar main events for your free TV lately, to be honest. This was just the last link in a long chain so far. Feels very much like you've booked yourself into a miniature "boom period" for this particular geographic region. As a territory, the Great White North is on fire at the moment. Kudos, sir.

Beyond that? You're juggling a lot of interesting things. The Mafia had a stronghold on last week's show, so it's only fitting that they kind of coast through today's edition. That way - nothing truly feels tedious or overexposed. The Mafia's presence was here, but they didn't rule the roost. And, with the Illuminati's umbrella of influence expanding, that's another logical factor to keep in check.

As much as a guy like Christian feels at home here, the same can be said for a chick like Nattie. Stoked to see her working here, where she could really BELONG, in what's already a thriving women's division. Said it before, but yeah. Your roster is ripe & freaking loaded with talent as far as the ladies go. It's really become a constant drawing card & a highlight for me here. You've got dream matches in abundance on your hands, so I hope you're able to get around to most of 'em eventually. Top Shelf against the Dungeon Dame has to be worked in at some point, by the way. =D

More entertaining stuff from Mero and company. Nothing really leaps out, but it's harmless fun. And it makes for enjoyable TV segments.

Gotta give ya props for the handling of the Candido/Hero confrontation, as well as the buildup promos for Cage and Graham. I know you say you're not a direct dialogue kind of writer, but I honestly see you coming around a bit more & more with each passing week. Bonus points for the effort, man. You're much better at it than you care to admit, I think. Keep that stuff coming.

I'm glad that you're enjoying my recent run of big time main events (Hogan vs. Savage, Lethal Lockdown, and now Graham vs. Christian). I wanted to bring a few bigger matches into my regular weekly television shows, especially as I'm building up and closing in on my first major PPV event.

Wow you are on a roll my man! I spoke too soon crowning last weeks episode best I've seen. This show continues on that level but then blasts off into the main event. Absolutely incredible stuff. The Superstar Graham "Californication" promo from earlier in the show was pure gold. Let me touch on a few things point by point:



* Lance Storm and Tyson Kidd seem like a great organic combination in your territory and should do very well together. Meanwhile the issues with Piper/Mero and the Blue Blazer continue to sizzle heading into the big show.



* Chris Hero really rubs salt in the wounds (or mist in the eye) of Chris Candido. Setting these two up in an Extreme Rules bout will be exciting to say the least, never mind the psychological undertones you've added.



* I'm not a huge ODB fan so I don't mind seeing her play the background in escalating the Cesaro/Magnus vs Cade/Murdoch tensions. Sensational Sherri picks up the "win" but the big story is Natalya Neidhart making her AGPW allegiances very clear. Maybe Trish Stratus isn't too far off in predicting great things for woman wrestling in Canada.



* I love the Montreal Mafia and look forward to Le Lion coming up victorious at Mayhem in Montreal. Two Rivers is great in his commissioners role as well and makes a big 6-man prequel bout for the next TV episode.



* Joe vs Giant was great but almost watered down I felt by the addition of Hurricane and S.H.I.T. I know they're returning the favor and all, but Joe's introduction feud to AGPW should be about being an unstoppable solo force. It seemed set up that way for him to get the Goldberg treatment, and the riding crop whip marks are a great touch, but this is something Joe should do alone if it comes down to a PPV match. Just my two cents.



* Main Event was classic AGPW, in that sense that it features unrestrained run-ins galore and criss-crossing storylines. I've railed against these type of things in the past with this show but here it really works. Adding Macho Man at the end was sheer Superstar overload, the kind only Mash up wrestling could produce. Despite all that we still get a pin, with Christian Cage downing the Tower of Power and staring straight at a World title shot against Hollywood Hogan!



Once again, incredible body of work and a sure-fire hit for your upcoming show. Mayhem in Montreal will be the 1st actual PPV for this company and I don't see it doing less than 350,000. Especially with a Mash Up Wrestling World championship match headlining. That's the beautiful thing about this universe and how they are all connected. I love to see the various feds putting in work together and keeping the theme alive. slade, I will reserve my hyperbole for the actual PPV but suffice to say I'm sure it will be your best work yet!
