If I choose someone, can I switch their show or no? (Just Raw to SD or vice versa, no company jumping lol) Raw to SD is fine and vice versa. After the first show they won't actually exist since everything is being merged. The two rosters will be split between WWE and AEW. So as long as we're having those people jumping to different brands then I see no issues otherwise.

Then let me get Otis, tag rule Chad Gable and Mandy Rose (Pandemic be damned, they deserve a proper storyline). Plus for AEW, give me Hangman Adam Page and tag rule Team XXL from Impact Wrestling (I sense comedic possibilities). It is quite a bit but I want to start off big before I feel out where my story goes, instead of thinking of an idea and possibly losing out down the line

Oh yeah, sorry about that. Added them both. I assume it doesn't matter watch of team XXL is the taken and which is the tag ruled here, but let me know if you want to switch between the two. I went ahead with Larry D as the taken by default.

Yeah switch the 2 if possible (Was actually tagging them both to Page but I misunderstood 2 per brand as 2 in general so that is absolutely my bad lol)

Alright, as my first official pick, taking Bobby Lashley. And naturally tag-ruling MVP to him, since that only makes sense.
Still undecided on a Dynamite pick, but should hopefully figure that out after tomorrow's debut show.

Ahead of the show tonight, I'm gonna tag rule Karl Anderson and Doc Gallows to Kenny Omega. I have some other ideas in mind on who to take, but I'm not decided on them yet.

Alright, we are officially kicking off in thirty minutes, folks. If anybody still wants to send anything in for this week then you have until the top of the hour to get it in. Otherwise, I can't guarantee I'll be able to post it this week on the show.
But if for some reason you aren't able to make it, feel free to post it as a WWE.com exclusive or anything like that some time after the show. I'm still looking for somebody to help me with the two brands as well in the future so let me know if you are interested in that also.

The SearchWe cut to the middle of the ring where we see a table set up along with two chairs. In the middle of the table is what appears to be a contract. No ChanceWelcome everyone to our WWE Wednesday Night Supershow! Tonight I am here to make history. If you have been paying attention to the news lately, you'd know that things have been blowing up on social media. And there's very good reason for that. Because you see, tonight I am going to make history. Just like how the Monday Night Wars ended when I purchased WCW, tonight will end the very same way when I claim another piece of sports entertainment property.
For those of you who aren't aware, there exists a company called AEW: All Elite Wrestling, they call it. A very obnoxious name for an obnoxious company. And while they've been allowed to flourish for the past year, I'm afraid that tonight I am bringing their legacy crashing to a screeching halt! For you see... in my infinite wisdom, I made the owner of that company an offer he couldn't refuse.Vince smirks at this as the crowd boos. Oh, I'm sure that you people are upset to hear that. Well, tough shit! This is my world and there's not a man alive who can stand up to Vincent Kennedy McMahon! Just ask Ted Turner if you don't believe me! And that was proven when another man agreed to meet me here live in the ring here on television to make things official. When money talks, people listen, and this was no exception.
So with that said... Tony Khan, get your pasty ass out here right now!As Vince waits in the ring, there is a noticeable silence. It isn't for long until a certain song starts to play...Wait a minute... that music. Could it be?Impossible! We haven't heard that theme live in years!The crowd explodes as none other then CM Punk makes his way out to the ring, dressed in the least professional looking attire possible. He smirks and takes a moment to soak in the adoration of the fans before raising the microphone to speak. Hey, Vinny. Guess who?I know damn well who you are, Punk! The real question is what are you doing? Last I checked, you were FIRED! So why are you standing on top of that entrance ramp?Vinny, Vinny, Vinny. You don't get it, do you? You remember when you signed that contract? The one that said you would gain control of AEW? Well... in your ancient wisdom, it seems you may not have read the fine print. It's a shame really that you neglected such a thing. I would expect more from the wrestling billionaire! What are you implying, Punk?Well, see... it goes like this. Last week you and Tony Khan did sign a contract together. And yes, that means that ownership of AEW was transferred over. That much is true.
However, and this is the part where you realize what an idiot you are, the person who now controls that company... isn't named Vincent Kennedy McMahon. And it also isn't somebody named Tony Khan.
No, when you signed that contract, you not only transferred full ownership of AEW, but also the WWE, to the handsome man standing right in front of you. That's right. I now own both fifty-one percent of both your wrestling companies!Vince's eyes grow wide as his face twists into a trademark scowl. Who the Hell do you think you are?! What kind of bluff are you trying to pull here?Who am I? That should be obvious, Vince. I am CM Punk! The voice of the voiceless! A long time ago, I said that I would only come back to the professional wrestling world when it was something I found fun again. And after all this time, I finally discovered I way to make it fun. By combining the two best professional wrestling companies going today into one super promotion. One where the fans have a say and where we don't march to the beat of one old man's beaten battered drum!How... how is this even possible? I made this company! It should still be mine?!That... that is something you can thank this man for.Punk steps aside as another man makes his way out from the back, though one perhaps not quite as familiar to most. Hello, Vince. My name is Nick Khan. Of course you should know that very well. You hired me to help turn this company around a few weeks ago. Well guess what? I'm here to do exactly just that. Thing is though you never said how I could go about doing that.
I've listened to the complaints from the WWE universe for months now. Most of them all had one thing they were complaining about. They say the person in charge is completely out to lunch. That they haven't had a clue for years. Well... what better way to remedy that then shake up this regime?
So while you may have hired me initially to help save your company... in the end I'd say you've been KHANNED!Another man makes his way out alongside a much more familiar one. The two look at one another and smirk. Seriously, Vince. Of all people, you hire a guy with the last name of Khan and are surprised to learn the truth? Tony and I have been in cahoots this whole time. We suckered you into this deal, and you bought it hook line and sinker! I mean seriously, old man. NICK Khan? TONY Khan? Didn't that set off any alarm bells in that head of yours?Vince is looking more then a little flustered as the crowd cheers in the background. Vince, Tony Khan here. I have to thank you. Without your short-sighted stupidity, this never would have happened. Thanks to you, the WWE and AEW are both back in the hands of somebody who knows what they are doing. And while you are still a minority owner, you no longer have any say about how this company is run. So if I were you, I would go back to Connecticut and stick yourself into the coziest and most expensive retirement home you can find.
Because the days of booking to please a single person are over! Henceforth, this company shall be born anew. We hereby declare that the WWE and AEW will now be known as WAEW! That stands for World All Elite Wrestling! Now get that man out of our ring!Security pours out from the back and gathers around the furious Vince McMahon. After a few moments of him struggling, they manage to escort him away from the ring. You won't get away with this! KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!Tony and Nick both smirk to one another as CM Punk makes his way into the ring, sitting cross-legged atop the table. Okay, now that we have everybody's attention. I am pleased to announce that from here on out, there will be three people in control of this company. Myself, Nick, and Tony here. Nick will operate the WWE, as he has been up to this point, and Tony will handle AEW. After all, he's been doing it for a year or so. Why ruin a good thing?
As for me, well... I'm here to see to it that this company is resurrected and brought kicking and screaming into the latest century. Just call me the Wrestling Czar. I'll be making all the decisions and helping this place flourish like it did back in the day. No more of this WWE Universe crap.
Now first and foremost, Hunter, I know you are here in the building. I'm shocked you haven't stormed out with your sledgehammer by now.
Well here's the thing: NXT... you're doing a pretty good job down there. So as far as I'm concerned, that's where you can keep your focus from now on. Of course I'll be bringing in my own people to help sort this company out. People who aren't likely to send out trash bags to former talents.
Oh, I guess this is a shoot now.Punk smirks at this. This coming week we will have the official WAEW Draft. This will help us determine the official rosters for both of these companies. But unlike the usual draft, we wont be determining things via a glorified roulette wheel. We're gonna change things up from the norm. All titles, as of right now, will be vacated. But don't worry because we will be determining new champions very soon.
But that's not all. Right now I am also making a second announcement. If anybody out there in NXT... Hell, out there in the world of independent wrestling wants to be part of this new regime, feel free to come on down. NJPW? Impact? ROH? MLW? AAA? CMLL? NWA? Doesn't matter. This is going to be a company for professional wrestlers and it doesn't matter what you look like or how experienced you are. All that matters is what you can do in the ring and if you can do it well.
Unless your name is Sexy Star, Joey Ryan, or Tessa Blanchard. Now this is definitely a shoot!
So with the Khans here running the ship and myself serving as the guy to help reignite this company, strictly in a non-wrestling role for the time being, it's only a matter of time before we light the professional wrestling world on fire once again!
So that just leaves me with one last thing to say: Come on in boys and girls. The forbidden door has been opened! Just make sure to wipe your feet first.Punk hops up onto the table and grins, posing to the crowd's delight as the two Khans both applaud in the ring beside him. Ladies and gentlemen, we have officially entered a new era. It appears that the WWE and AEW are no more. In their place is a new promotion.The WAEW. I gotta say. That has a nice ring to it. I don't know about you, but we are about to see something special. Well for starters some introductions are in order. Effective starting tonight we have a new commentary team manning this booth. Of course I'm Michael Cole, who most of you recognize.Pat McAfee here. I'm the guy who tells you exactly how things are. And I gotta say, wasn't expecting to end up alongside you again, Cole! Punk could've thought that one through a little better.Well he did make one good call. You all may remember me as Beth Phoenix. I used to commentate down in NXT and before that I was a world class women's wrestler. But now that I'm here on Raw, I'm excited to bring some new perspective to things around here. No offense, fellas.Hey, no complaints here. Better to have someone I can look at all night who easier on the eyes then poindexter here!And don't forget us over here. As tonight is a Supershow, it means we here on Dynamite are here to provide some commentary of our own. Tony Schiavonie here, alongside two men you are likely very familiar with.Hello all, I'm Excalibur. If there's a wrestler out there, I'm the guy who knows anything and everything about them.And don't forget me. The world's largest commentator, Paul Wight. You might remember me here from back in the day as The Big Show. But that was then and this is now. And I don't know about you guys, but I'm excited to call some action tonight!Well you won't have to wait long. But first, let's here from one of AEW's premier talents: Eddie Kingston!---------------------------------- We cut to Eddie Kingston, alone. There's going to be some of you watching this, thinking to yourselves, "alright, Eddie Kingston, this ought to be pretty good". But there's going to be some of you watching this, thinking "huh, where's Jon Moxley?". Admit it, you know who you are. Feels like I can't go anywhere on my own these days without somebody asking. So allow me to set the record straight. I got a lot of respect for Jon Moxley, dare I say maybe I even have love for the man, but I ain't here to be someone's lackey. I ain't here because I want to be a tag team champion. I'm here because I want to be World Champion. Two men can't do that at once and I know Mox is going to want it back some day too.
It would be real easy for me to blame Mox for a lot of my recent problems. Say he's the reason I'm not World Champion right now. Say he's the reason why parts of the locker room think Eddie Kingston is nothing more than a punk ass bitch scared of a little pyro. Say he's the reason I ended up with my foot in a cast. Truth is, Mox never once made a decision for me. I made choices, rightly or wrongly, and I have dealt with the consequences as such. My most recent choice has been for Mox and I to go our separate ways. I told him straight up, he needs me, and I mean really needs me, that I've still got his back. Otherwise, we're done. I need to start looking out for myself, get back to getting what I want.
Been in this business a long time. 19 years. You know what it gets you? Squat. Nothing is guaranteed in this line of work. Last year, I was having to contemplate retirement. One promo, and I got handed the opportunity of a lifetime. Any given day though, I know it could be taken away so I've got to make up for lost time. I've ran with so many different crews in the past, I've lost count. One thing they all had in common, I never got what I wanted out of them.
World. Heavyweight. Champion.
I've held plenty of gold. Been the top dog in multiple organisations. Never been the guy that has been universally recognised as the best, in the world, at professional wrestling. That's what I want. This is all I know how to do, all I ever wanted to do. This isn't a threat to the powers that be to give me the shot. I know how things work around here, opportunities are earned not given. I'm not going to proclaim myself the next World Champion because as good as I run my mouth, it don't mean a damn thing if I can't back it up.
It is a warning though. The longer I am kept away from the world title, the more dangerous things are going to become around here. Got no problem getting blood on my hands, breaking bones, whatever it takes. The Mad King wants to take his spot on the throne. Don't keep me waiting.

*We go to a luxury box, with the camera showing a man sitting down from behind, a bottle of red wine to his right, a charcuterie board to his left.*
“It’s funny, I never had the opportunity for these finer delights until people took notice of my skills. I travelled the world as one of the great athletes of Cirque Du Soilei. I’ve performed in front of crowds small and large, and then when I got here the boss man wanted me to stand outside the ring and not entertain.” *Reginald turns around, looking back at the camera over his shoulder* “You know, I always flourished in the spotlight. Guess it’s time I go take my spot in it. And guess what? If there’s another I learned, it’s more fun when you have some friends come along for the ride. Now, I think you know the way out? I have some talent to scout.” *Reginald turns back to watch the show, uncorking the wine and pours himself a glass*
Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman and at this point in my career, I find myself speaking to you on Friday Night WWE Smackdown!
When I walked into the building today, I noticed that the wrestlers in the back, the officials, the referees, the agents, the camera personnel and crew would all stop and stare at me as I went about my business.
This is nothing new. You see, I first walked into a WWE arena as an employee almost twenty years ago. There were a few familiar faces on the roster at the time, some from my days in ECW, some from WCW a lifetime ago. There were friends and, to be candid, there were enemies as well.
Everyone has an idea about the kind of man Paul Heyman is, even those that have never met me. You watch the WWE Network, you read magazines and listen to podcasts, you check out the shoots, and you will find no shortage of people, brilliant people, naive people, people with great power in this industry and people who think they have great power in this industry but are mistaken, that will call me a genius.
They will call me a monster, as well. I have been a mentor to many of the most successful stars in the pro wrestling, as well as sports entertainment, business for decades now. I have also betrayed some of its biggest names.
No, I did not betray them for 40 pieces of silver and a producer's credit on some B-movie remake in Hollywood. I am not the Devil, and I am not the leader of the Lost Tribe of the Extreme. What you think you know about Paul Heyman and what the reality is in 2021 are two very different things.
The Dangerous Alliance. Extreme Championship Wrestling. OVW. The Smackdown Six. My bond with the Beast Incarnate, Brock Leaned.
All my greatest triumphs in my career are the result of one thing: my ability to survive.
Whatever else you heard about me, whatever else you think you know about me, all of that comes from my ability to survive.
I have survived in the wrestling industry due to my ability to find talent. I find talent, I help nurture and refine it, and I let it loose upon the wrestling world. I always find myself step ahead of those who would snuff me out forever.
And, with all due respect to Brock Lesnar, I have found my next client. I have found a diamond in the rough. A man of limitless potential, a man who has slowly, through work that you or I could not even begin to imagine, evolved to become the very best that this industry has to offer. His God-given gifts have been honed through a lifetime trials to a level that few will ever attain.
My client will be the reason that I will survive on Friday Night Smackdown. In exchange, I will send forth every ounce of darkness in my soul that you all believe I harbor and ensure that nothing will stand in the way of his divine right to become the new watermark of excellence in this industry.
Ladies and Gentlemen, my name is Paul Heyman, and my client, my true client, my final client, my last chance for survival in this industry, is...
Antonio Cesaro
*We cut backstage to the inimitable Tetsuya Naito in his locker area.*
Well, I suppose it had to happen eventually. Yet another new start.
Don't get me wrong, I've done fine with them before. In fact, you could say I've thrived off them. And I'm perfectly aware that change is just part of life. But at some point, one wants to just... settle. Not settle for less, rather settle into a secure place.
But for me, it's time for another change. And so I find myself at the Thunderdome. I find myself ready for another volume in the great life's work of Tetsuya Naito. And whatever needs to be done to write that volume, it will be done.
But if you think I'm going to change...
*Naito smirks.*
...then you clearly have no idea who I am.
*Naito walks off-camera.*

*some unfamiliar music hits as the crowd seems confused a man with a hooded sweatshirt on walks down to the ring he grabs a mic from the ringside area and removes his hood to reveal a man with short hair,cauliflower ears and a slight smirk on his face as he begins to speak*
Now, Now don't adjust your tv screens there's nothing wrong with it what you are seeing is real "Filthy" Tom Lawlor is in the WWE. in case you've lived under a rock I have been tearing up pro wrestling all over the world I have wrestled for many, many promotions and I am finally here. I also used to compete in UFC much like Brock Lesnar, like Matt Riddle but I was much better at it than they were. You also don't have to worry about me disappearing for months at a time unlike a certain world champion that WWE had I no WE are here to stay. who's we? you might ask well that you'll just have to wait and find out.
Now I guess is the part where I say what my goals are. Well that's very simple my goal is just to be the best to be a champion and I will achieve that goal. when I am done here all WWE will be remembered for is "Filthy" Tom Lawlor destroying everybody in his path. is this me being cocky? maybe so but it is one hundred percent fact and to prove it on our next show I am issuing a challenge a "filthy" Tom Lawlor invitational to anyone in the back who wants to face me. Anybody who wants to take me down I dare you to try.
*Tom drops the mic puts his hood back on and walks to the back*
The camera takes us through a high-end Japanese restaurant, various patrons are shown in their finest suits and dresses before we land on a familiar man seated at a table. Decked out in an all white suit with a pair of sunglasses on, Kenny Omega smirks as the camera approaches him.
"I shouldn't be surprised to see you here. Everywhere I go, people take notice. That's just what happens when you're an elite athlete, when you're the Best Bout Machine. I've been on the top of every company I've joined and this new endeavor won't be any different. But what does it take to be the best? How did I go from wrestling blow-up dolls in a sumo hall to putting on 5-star classics every time I step in the ring? It's simple, I sacrificed. I've lost friends, relationships, even family to this sport and in turn I have become the very best pro wrestler on this planet. I'm not the best because I expect things to be handed to me, I'm the best because it is an undeniable fact. Ask Okada, ask Ibushi, ask the Bucks, hell ask Hangman. They'll all tell you the same thing."
Kenny takes off his sunglasses and points into the camera. The smirk on his face forming into a full grin.
The sad thing is I've been so good for so long that I can't even top myself. You step in the ring with Kenny Omega and you're about to have the most important match of your career. For me, it was a Wednesday. Trust me, it's nothing personal, it's just what happens when you've been on top as long as I have. All it takes is a One Winged Angel and BANG! Your night is over and my legacy grows. See you out there.
Omega puts his sunglasses back on as the camera pans out, watching him leave the table as the scene fades.
We’re now joined here at WWE Supershow by Ricochet. Ricochet, some are really tapping you to be one of the stars who could benefit from a shakeup like what we have here. What do you have to say about that? Well Michael, It’s think it’s clear that things have been going my way for a bit, but with every new opportunity comes the hope of new possibilities. I know I’m still the same guy who can give the people things they’ve never seen before. Because I’m not sure if you know this or not, but that ‘One and Only’ thing? It isn’t just a tag line, it’s the truth. No one can do some of the things I can and no one electrifies this crowd like I do. Tonight, I feel bad for Humberto Carrillo. He gets to be the first person on my new highlight reel. Big words from Ricochet, but we’ll see him in action… right after this on WWE Supershow!

Welcome back everyone, it’s almost time for our next match, but before we do, WWE Supershow is brought to you by Snickers! You aren’t you without a Snickers! And Fast Nine. This time, Family isn’t forever. Fast Nine, only in theaters starting June 25
*We go to the ring, Humberto Carrillo is in there getting a stretch against the ropes*
*biiiing… One and Only* *Ricochet poses inside his circle of lasers and beings his walk down to the ring*
Folks, I’m going to let you in on a little secret, I’ve been in the locker room with some of the best athletes in the world. This dude. This Rico Chet, another level inside these ropes
*Ricochet enters the ring, does his handspring into the ropes landing in a superhero pose, staring down Humberto*
Wow! See what I mean Michael! Yes Pat, mighty impressive is Ricochet But guys, don’t discount Humberto, he is a former championship challenger
*The Bell rings. Humberto and Ricochet shake hands and begin an awesome lucha style opening sequence. Armdrags, leapfrogs, kip ups until Humberto goes outside the ring*
Humberto looks to recover, but don’t take your eyes of Ricochet
*Ricochet runs at Humberto and nails him with a baseball slide. As Humberto recovers Ricochet gets back on the apron and goes for a big Asai Moonsault, which hits!*
Unbelievable athleticism by Ricochet guys! An awesome Asai Moonsault
*Ricochet rolls Humberto back into the ring where Humberto is slow to get to his feet. Ricochet hits a Northern Lights suplex and then floats over for a stalling vertical deadlift suplex*
Are you kidding me? What strength! I was not expecting that And Humberto is in the danger zone as Ricochet heads to the top!
*Ricochet ascends the turnbuckles, taking time to pause on the top rope before leaping*
630 splash by Ricochet, That’ll do it!
*Ricochet covers, the ref counts, but it’s academic* Well, time to start on that new highlight reel, right Michael?
Looks that way Pat, an impressive win for...
*Cole’s microphone cuts as The lights go out throughout the Thunderdome. Ricochet is in the center of the ring. One solitary spotlight shines on him. He looks confused as a second spotlight shows up in the stands near a luxury box. Reginald stands up, gives polite applause to Ricochet and raises his wine glass to him.*
What do you think Reginald wants with Ricochet? Well, he did say something about scouting talent earlier Beth. Maybe someone has caught old Reggie’s eye A situation worth keeping tabs on guys, but we’ve got more action coming up on WWE Supershow tonight, live!
The camera sits in on a dark room with Otis staring at a mirror...
I can't believe this. Within a year, I lose my girl, I lose my Money in the Bank briefcase....then I lose my brother. I would've forgave him for everything...if he was still here
I am honestly kinda losing my way around here...I don't know what I can do...
Otis! Buddy, Pal!
In walks Gable, with a huge smile and 3 Subway sandwiches
Gabe! You brought me lunch! I didn't know Subway was doing a buy one footlong get one half off deal!
Otis grabs his sandwich and winks at the camera. Gable is confused but continues.
Yeah I got us lunch...but that's not the surprise
Hi Otis
He turns around and sees Mandy Rose dressed casual, smiling from ear to ear. Otis is so stunned, he almost drops his sandwich
I figure now that we're all in this together, there's no different brand to seperate us. I know you have Gable, but I missed you. I want us to start over aga..
Mandy doesn't even get to finish as Otis gets up and immediately bear hugs her.
He puts her down and immediately asks one word...
Ham?
She giggles as her and Chad walk away...
Maybe this is the start of something new...
*TO THE BACK~! Where EVIL is doing himself a bit of pacing in front of the camera.*
Ah yes, after so long, a new kingdom for the King of Darkness to conquer! New Japan felt the grip of EVIL, and now-
*He suddenly stops and looks straight at the viewer.*
What do you mean, "I'm being too overdramatic?!" Did you expect someone with "King of Darkness" as a nickname to be subdued?!
Actually, it probably wasn't expected but why take a chance with a new audience....
*Nice bit of muttering there, EVIL. The man formerly known as Takaaki Watanabe clears his throat and resumes:*
In Japan, I have done just about everything there is for me to do, and what is a king without a desire to conquer? Dynamite is fresh for the taking for me, and soon everyone here will know what everyone in Japan now knows! EVIL cannot be stopped! EVIL cannot be fought! EVIL cannot be broken!
Dynamite is EVIL! American wrestling is EVIL! And as it always has been, everything is EVIL! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
*Well, it IS a new audience for him so his impression of him declaring what everything is supposed to be is what is seen last as we cut elsewhere.*

We cut to the back where we see none other than MVP standing by backstage, looking absolutely livid following the earlier announcement. At his side is Bobby Lashley, also looking none too pleased. Well that's just great! What the Hell is going on here? Why is it suddenly that Bobby Lashley, the man who was the WWE World Heavyweight Champion, is now suddenly being stripped of his belt? The belt he won fair and square! The belt that he earned in the middle of that ring?! Just because some Punk decided to waltz in like he owns the place and reset the board?
Aw no! That's not how things are going down! Phil, you miserable tattooed jerk! How dare you take away something from my client, Bobby Lashley! The Destroyer of men! The Alpha and Omega of the WWE! Do you think you're being cute? That just because you finally showed your face around here that you suddenly get to do whatever you want? That's not how things work in my world.
And for the past few months, ever since Wrestle-freakin-mania, my man has made himself known as the baddest man in this whole damn company! But no, now we have to start right back at square one. What a crock of shit! That's right, I said SHIT!
Let me guess, Punk? You knew that nobody could beat my man fair and square so you decided to screw us over just cause you could. Look, You may have snatched this company right from underneath the nose of Vince McMahon, but you don't get to play that with me and Bobby here! So what happens from this point on, I just want you to know that it is all your fault.MVP slaps his man Lashley across the chest and smirks. It's only a matter of time before we get back what belongs to us. What belongs to the Hurt Business! But fine, fine. We'll play along. You want to send us to the back of the line? Alright, alright. Well I promise you that my boy Bobby here ain't gonna stay back there for long! And it starts tonight. See, if this is gonna be the beginning of a new era in this company then tonight I'm gonna be happy to remind the world about what they can expect from here on out!CM Punk... you miserable worm. Watch what I do tonight. Let that be a message about what's gonna happen now that you have stuck your nose where it never belonged.Lashley glares right into the camera as we eventually fade to the next scene. The following contest is scheduled for one fall! Currently in the ring, from Franklin, Wisconsin, Ric Bugez!The Hurt BusinessHis opponent, being accompanied by MVP, from Denver, Colorado weighing in at 273 pounds, "The All Mighty" Bobby Lashley!
Lashley quickly makes his way into the ring, wasting no time as MVP watches on from outside the ring, a huge smirk on his face. Ric immediately squares up with Lashley, looking just a little hesitant. As soon as the bell sounds though, he regrets it courtesy of a huge headbutt sending him reeling! Lashley throws him hard into the turnbuckle before tackling him into it repeatedly. He drags him out soon after before throwing him with an overhead belly to belly! Bugez staggers back to his feet only to get hoisted up high into the air, Lashley pressing him overhead with ease. He does a few reps with the helpless man before sending him crashing down to the canvas, MVP looking absolutely ecstatic with his man's performance so far! Waiting for him to rise, Lashley then folds him in half courtesy of a brutal spear turning him inside-out! Ric lays motionless on the mat, but instead of going for the pin, Bobby bends over and yanks him up into a Full Nelson, cranking on the Hurt Lock to ends things in swift fashion! Ric barely even lasts a full second before tapping out! Here is your winner, "The All Mighty" Bobby Lashley!Lashley keeps the hold locked in for what seems like an eternity longer, shaking the soon unconscious Bugez back and forth in his arms before tossing him aside with no concern for his well-being. The crowd boos as MVP smirks, raising his man's arm in victory as he revels in the devastation. HEY PUNK! This was just step one! We're just getting started!The two men continue to celebrate in the ring to the crowd's ire Well Lashley just made a firm statement. The new owners may have made a huge mistake pissing these two off.It's his own fault! He should've known some feathers would be ruffled by vacating all the belts like that.Well regardless, don't go anywhere folks. Coming up next is The newest acquisition of Paul Heyman is in action, Cesaro!

Heyman comes out to join commentary. He complains a bit about having more important things to do but settles in and talks up Cesaro, making sure to stress that he's Antonio Cesaro and should be addressed as such. Hyman has two roses in his hand, one red and the other white. Cesaro walks to the ring with a red and white robe, affecting nobility. He walks slowly, deliberately, and Heyman notes how focused he is. His Titantron shows him wrestling, with an emphasis on mat wrestling and sundry variations of the European Uppercut and Swiss Death. His theme starts out low and is baroque classical music. It rises gradually and features a choir. The words are in Latin and the song becomes deafening as he enters the ring. Cesaro is introduced by his full name. He seems oblivious to the referee and his opponent, an enhancement talent that seems way out of his depth. Cesaro is methodical and slowly circles his opponent, initiating a lockup. Cesaro clearly shows that he's stronger, faster, and more adept at mat wrestling than his opponent. He takes down his opponent down effortlessly, rolls around with him on the mat, and hooks on a cradle, releasing it on the count of two. They mat wrestle some more, with Cesaro dominating again, and applying a lateral press for a two count, releasing it right before three. Heyman plays up how Cesaro is unmatched when it comes to mat wrestling. His opponent is frustrated and tries to attack, only to meet a devastating European Uppercut. From there, Cesaro is in complete control: he does a butterfly suplex, then rolls his opponent to the outside and does a apron run European Uppercut. Heyman puts over Cesaro's twenty years of in ring experience and how he's a throwback to European wrestlers like Karl Gotch and Finlay. He drags his opponent into the ring, hits a Ricola Bomb, picks his opponent up, and does a flurry of European Uppercut in the corner. Cesaro then hits Swiss Death, does an impressive Giant Swing, and then transitions to the Sharpshooter for the submission victory. Heyman goes to the ring, celebrates with Cesaro, who remains vaguely indifferent, and places the roses next to the enhancement talent's head. Heyman, joining Cesaro in the ring and looking smug: Ladies and Gentlemen, I present to you the winner of this match...Antonio Cesaro!
*Addressing Cesaro* Mr. Cesaro, my apologies, I will ensure that you will have a more fitting challenger for your next match. Maybe I'll request for a few unfortunate souls from NXT to come on up to the big leagues and test their skills against the best of the best.
Heyman: And my client, Mr. Antonio Cesaro, is the best. (Cesaro poses with a haughty look on his face) When you see my client in action, you bear witness to a throwback to the great European wrestlers of the past. Karl Gotch. Billy Robinson. Robbie Brookside. Mark Rocco.
Those names might not mean anything to you but they are the legends that my client, Mr. Antonio Cesaro strives to emulate and, ultimately eclipse in greatness.
My client is stronger than anyone else in the so-called WWE Universe. My client is more versatile in the ring. My client is tougher. My client is more intelligent. And, after more than twenty years in the professional wrestling business, he has evolved into the next big thing.
Cesaro: *Addressing Heyman* Thank you, Mr. Heyman.
And now, I expect the WWE Universe wants me to talk to them in Swiss or German or French, as they been conditioned to do.
No, I will not lower myself to do so. Those languages are precious and not fit for your ears.
I will use a language that all of you can understand.
This match only serves to summarize my career, a career of utter domination. A career where I conquered my lessers.
Mr. Heyman listed the great European wrestlers of the past but I have only one kindred spirit. Alexander the Great.
Alexander the Great, when confronted with the fabled Gordian Knot, chose to cut it rather than disentangle it. He succeeded where everyone else had failed.
I will be the sword that cuts the knot known as WWE and I will prove myself worthy of greatness.We cut to the inside of what appears to be a dark musty church, the only light present being a number of candles lit up around the room. The eerie sound of strange chanting and sinister organ music filling the air. As we pan across the room we see a number of hooded figures all stood inside the room. Each of them is holding one of these candles, head bowed down and away from the screen. Soon a vaguely familiar figure makes their way in front of three of the more prominent members of this collective. Clasped in their hand is a large book of some sort, though their back continues to face away from the screen. Gather around, my children. For today we speak of the evils of the world. That which permeates the air we breath, the water we drink, and the food we consume each and every day. For years the darkness has swallowed those who allow it. Some would call this a curse! Something to be expelled and cast off.
These people are fools! People who don't understand the way truly works. For the darkness is a gift. It allows a mere man to do things he once never knew himself capable of. To hurt those we once feared! To defy those we once bowed down to! To do the things that others simply aren't capable of doing.
A new day is rising. The regime has been shattered and thus the door has opened for a new force to emerge! A force that will cast a shadow upon this world and share with it the truth of all things. It is up to us to step out and enlighten those who have yet to receive the privilege of such blessed gifts!
It is up to you, my children, to bestow these gifts. And you shall soon get your opportunity to do just that. Because there are so many that shall soon enter our world, and thus receive the opportunity to be a lucky recipient! They shall drown in the darkness for the greater good! The more who succumb, the more clear our message shall become. The more enlightened our followers shall be!The three hooded figures slowly raise their heads to face this man addressing them. We shall soon sing the hymns of destruction, my children! For we are... the Devil's Choir. And WAEW Dynamite... rejoice. For we shall soon arrive and reveal the splendid darkness for all to see! Do not avert your eyes. Because the best is yet to come.The man slowly turns around, revealing none other then the legendary Father James Mitchell. The twisted man sneers and raises his arm high into the air only to swiftly bring it back down. And soon after the light vanishes completely as each candle is extinguished simultaneously. REJOICE, FOR THE DEVIL'S CHOIR IS COMING TO DYNAMITE.

We return from commercial where we see new recruits Asher Hale, Chance Barrow and Joe Ariola in the ring, along with referee Darryl Sharma. Stackin' MoneyMaking his way to the ring, from Burlington, North Carolina, weighing 220 pounds, Cameron Grimes!Grimes enters the ring, microphone in hand. Ladies and gentlemen, Cameron Grimes has arrived! For those of you who don't know, I'm happy to introduce myself. You are looking at a man who inside the ring is a technical savage and outside of it, is a financial genius. The NFT of NXT. The Capital Captain. Call me Dwayne "The Stock" Johnson because if you're not investing in Cameron Grimes, you might as well be at rock bottom. The truth is, they've been wanting to call me up for a while now but a man as rich as myself has to keep changing his number. Funny how everyone wants to be your friend when there's money to spend.
Recently, I've been having some trouble with a certain Ted DiBiase. However, as Teddy would often say, everybody has a price for the Million Dollar Man. I made Teddy an offer he couldn't refuse. Stay out of my way or get your chest caved in. It's a lesson he needed to learn and it's part of the reason I'm here tonight. To impart wisdom to those that look to follow in my footsteps. I requested an exhibition match for tonight and one of these three men will get to make history by being the first man I defeat on the main roster. Just an exhibition though because quite frankly, when I saw the contract they offered me, I thought there had to be a typo. A few zeros missing. So tonight, you get a taste. You want the full course, you better start paying me the big bucks.
Let's start with you. Joe Ariola. Never stood a chance with a name like that, did ya? I'll make this real simple for you Joe. Fifty dollars. You lay down and let me pin you, we can all be on our way. What do you think?Joe shakes his head "no". Cameron indicates for Joe to leave but when Ariola stays put, Grimes responses with a Cave In. Lesson number one. Know your worth.
Moving on... Chance Barrow. Now I like you kid so I'm going to offer you more. Five hundred dollars. All you've got to do is stay down for three.Chance offers a handshake to Cameron and surprisingly lays down. Grimes goes in for a cover... 1!
2!...Cameron pulls Barrow's shoulder up. Both men return to their feet with Chance looking at Grimes in confusion, before receiving a Cave In of his own. Lesson number two. Ain't nothing in life that comes for free.
Asher Hale. I think by now you know where this is going so I'm not going to insult your intelligence. The referee is going to ring the bell, I'm going to hit you with the Cave In but.. if you can kick out before three, I'll give you five thousand dollars. Not only that, if you by some fluke, can then go on to defeat me, I'll throw in another five thousand on top of that.Asher nods his head in agreement. Darryl Sharma calls for the opening bell and Cameron Grimes runs towards Hale for the Cave In, only for it to be side stepped. Asher catches Cameron with a school boy. 1!
2!Grimes kicks out and it appears we actually have a match on our hands. Cameron goes a single leg take down but Hale grabs him in a side headlock. Grimes shoots Asher off the ropes, responding with a shoulder tackle. Cameron tries to follow up with an elbow drop but Hale rolls out of the way. Both men back to their feet, Asher regains control off a low dropkick. Hale looks to hook Grimes for a suplex, gets an uppercut for his troubles. Cameron sends Asher into the corner, high kick to the chest, followed by stomps to the mid-section. Hale is able to catch the boot and Grimes feigns off. Asher is having none of it, dragon screw leg whip. Cameron hobbles away, Hale not letting up, running enzuigiri. Asher goes up top and connects with a missile front dropkick. 1!
2!Cameron with the shoulder up. Hale is eager for Grimes to get to his feet, runs in a cross body. Cameron catches it though and responds with the Collision Course, his standing moonsault into a fall away slam. Grimes marks his man, Asher having to pull himself up with the ring ropes at this point but when Hale turns around, he is met with the Cave In. 1!
2!
3!
Here is you winner, Cameron Grimes!Cameron picks up his microphone from before. Lesson number three. Invest in Cameron Grimes and watch your stock shoot up...
TO
THE
MOON!Grimes makes his exit. Well that looks like all we have time for. But what a show to kick off this new regime!For now though, it looks like we'll be seeing you next week. And who knows what else awaits us then!
