A video package plays, cutting back and fourth between some of the iconic moments in professional wrestling history and a jungle.
Announcer: Many men have stepped into a professional wrestling ring. Most of them fade into obscurity, however there are some who become superstars. Out of those superstars, some go on to become legends, and of those legends, only a select few become icons. But all of these men are all stars. And, for the first time in history, the best Superstars, the best Legends, the best Icons... the best of professional wrestling's all stars have come together, to put their skills to the test in the All Star Wrestling Federation's ring.
Video cuts to a field during a thunderstorm, with faces of ASWF superstars fading in the backround.
Announcer: A new day has dawned upon the professional wrestling world; the day of the all star. And tonight, in the first episode of All Star Wrestling Federation's Superstars, the all stars come out to play!
Camera cuts to the arena, where Deadmau5 feat. Rob Swire “Ghosts N' Stuff” is blaring over the intercom. Pyro goes off on the stage before camera's zoom into the announce team, which consists of Jim Ross, Jerry Lawler and Joey Styles.
Joey: Good evening, ladies and gentleman, and welcome to the inaugural edition of All Star Wrestling Federation Superstars, live from the Izod Center in East Rutherford, New Jersey. I'm Joey Styles, here with my broadcast partners Jerry “The King” Lawler and Jim Ross, and we have got a HELL of a show for you tonight.
Jerry: That's right, Joey. Tonight, we will see two matches in the world heavyweight title tournament, which was announced a few days ago on ASWF's website. First, Hulk Hogan will face Randy Orton, and in the main even, Stone Cold Steve Austin will face The Rock!
Jim: Of course, all four men will be trying to advance to the semi-finals, all four men trying to become the first ASWF World Heavyweight Champion.
Joey: Speakings of tournaments, tonight will also feature the beginning of the ASPW Superstars Tournament, where 8 men will battle to become the first ever Superstar Champion.
Jim: Tonight, “The Samoan Submission Machine” Samoa Joe will face “The Straight-Edge Savior” CM Punk to advance to the semi finals.
Jerry: Don't forget about AJ Styles VS Kurt Angle, which will also be a quarter-finals match in the Superstars Tournament.
Jim: I was getting there, King
Joey: But first, the Tag Team....
Joey is cut off by “Mope” by Bloodhound Gang (Censored) blasting over the intercom.
Joey: Okay, maybe not. FIRST, the CEO of All Star Wrestling Federation, Brandon Brownson.
Brandon walks out to the stage, wearing a pair of black slacks, black converse and a black “ASWF” shirt with a blue Hawaiian over it.
Brandon: Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to the All Star Wrestling Federation!!
The crowd cheers
Brandon: Now, I just want to make it known that this will NOT be the same shit, different day!
Joey: Did we forget to mention this is TV-14?
Brandon: There will be no politicking power houses backstage, no overly predictable “Plot Twists”, no Russo-worthy matches, oh no! You will only have the best of the best in professional wrestling; The best MATCHES, the best STARS, the best...
Brandon is cut off when “The Game” starts playing. The arena is filled with boo's as Triple H makes his way to the stage, dressed in jeans and a Triple H T-shirt.
Brandon: Hunter, I hope you DO know that interrupting the CEO is a terrible idea, since your not porking the boss' daughter, anymore.
Crowd chuckles, Triple H smirks
Triple H: Oh, that's funny, Brownson. You know, I know it's your first night, and you have a lot going on, but I can't help but notice that, despite your obvious wit, you seem to have made a teeny tiny mistake.
Brandon: Oh really?
HHH: Yeah, you did. You see, um, YOU FORGOT TO PUT ME IN THE WORLD TITLE TOURNAMENT! Now, I understand making a small mistake on your first show, but this is pretty big! However, I can forgive you if you fix that mistake and put me in the tournament right now.
Crowd boo's
Brandon: You see, Hunter, here's the thing; that was no mistake. I didn't put you in the tournament so I could give fan's the chance to see people they haven't seen in awhile...
HHH: Wait, so Hogan and Orton haven't been seen in awhile? Please, the only things that have been crammed down these fan's throats more then Hogan and Orton are the little debbie's snacks that made their asses too big to properly fit in the seats.
Crowd boo's. A “Game Over” chant begins
Brandon: Okay, Hunter, clearly you want a mach tonight, so I'm going to give you one. And that match will be next! So I suggest you get down to the ring right now?
Hunter: (Smirks) I see what your trying to do, Brownson, your trying to get a reaction out of me. Your trying to get me to complain, “Oh, that's not fair! I don't know who I'm facing! I'm not in my ring gear!”. But here's the flaw in your plan; I am the game! I am the biggest star in ASWF, the biggest star in wrestling history, and the best wrestler of all time. It doesn't matter who you throw at me, it doesn't matter if it's Hogan, if it's Austin, if it's Sting, it doesn't MATTER! As far as I'm concerned.... GAME ON!
“The Game” plays again as Triple H makes his way down the ramp to a barrage of jeers from the crowd.
Jim: Well, folks, we gotta take a commercial break after this, but up next, Triple H will face a mystery opponent!
Jerry: I wonder who it could be!
Commercial Break
Superstars comes back on the air. Triple H is standing in the middle of the ring when “Mettalingus” starts to play. Edge comes out, revealing himself as Triple H's opponent. The crowd goes wild.
Jerry: Oh boy!
Jim: Well folks, it looks like Edge is The Game's opponent!
MATCH 1: Triple H VS Edge
The match starts with a lot of back and fourth action, but Triple H soon gets the advantage after a high knee strike. He starts to wear Edge out with rest holds, punches and clotheslining Edge down whenever he gets up. He Irish whip's Edge into the corner and goes for a body block, but Edge moves out of the way, sending the game colliding with the top rope.
Joey: Well, there's a reason Triple H doesn't go for that move much!

Rock: Well, Mean Gene, the Rock says this! The Rock has already proven that he is better then Steve Austin by beating him twice at Wrestlemania, and the millions.... and MILLIONS.... of the Rock's fans already know how this one is gonna go.
The Rock pauses, and you can hear “Sellout” chants coming from the crowd.
Rock: However, there are still those out there who think that the Rock's time in Hollywood has slowed him down. They think that THE most electrifying man in sports entertainment today has lost his juice, and those fans will learn they are WRONG when the wrong kicks Austin's beer-swelling ass back to Texas! But Mean Gene, who do YOU think is gonna win the match?
Gene: Well, I...
Rock: IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOU THINK!!! Tonight, I'm gonna take Austin's cooler full of beer he has the timekeeper hang on to, shine it up real nice, stick it sideways and stick it straight up his candy ass, IF YOU SMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL.... what the ROCK is cookin'!

Jim: And here comes the final team of the match, Dolph Ziggler and Cody Rhodes
Joey: Not to correct you, JR, but they call themselves “Perfectly Dashing”. For those of you who don't know, Rhodes and Ziggler started teaming up in various west-coast indie promotions before CEO Brandon Brownson decided to hire them.
Jim: It's also worth noting that CEO Brownson hired Perfectly Dashing before he hired any other team, seeing them as the future of tag team wrestling!
FINAL ROUND: Hardy Boys VS Perfectly Dashing
Jeff and Dolph start the match off with a bit of back and fourth, but Dolph beats Jeff's head off of the turnbuckle, taking advantage of the injuries he got facing the Dudleys.

Joe has the early advantage, but that changes when Punk pushes Joe into the ref, nailing Joe with a low blow while the ref was distracted. The ref gives Punk a lecture, but he insists it was an accident. Joe slowly gets up during the argument, but Punk turns around and hits Joe with a kicking combination, finishing it with a one-hand bulldog. Punk now has the advantage, and wears Joe down with a series of arm-based submission holds.
Joey: Smart move by Punk. He's using those holds to wear out Joe's arm, making it harder for him to hit the muscle buster.
Jim: Joe does still have the Coquina Clutch, though.
Jerry: Oh, c'mon JR, when's the last time you saw Joe use the Coquina Clutch to finish off an enemy? Joe is entirely reliant on that Muscle Buster.
Jim: I wouldn't go that far, King. Samoa Joe has a vast arsenal of moves, and I'm pretty sure he could finish Punk off with any combination of those moves.
Meanwhile, Punk and Joe are back on their feet. Punk hits a spinning wheel kick, sending Joe back toward the corner. Punk punches away at Joe's torso, but Joe grabs his head and throws him in the corner, kicking at Punk's torso. Joe lifts Punk up to the top rope with his good arm, and goes to lift him up for the muscle buster, but puts Punk down, holding his arm. Punk takes advantage, kicks Joe in the arm, before lifting himself up to the top and hits a crossbody, getting a two-count.
Jerry: See, I told you! Without his arm strength, Joe is in trouble! His biggest advantage over the “Straight-Edge savior” is his strength, and Punk just eliminated that factor!
The two get up. Punk Irish whip's Joe, and locks in the Anaconda Vise. Joe screams in pain, but inches his way slowly toward the ropes, before finally getting his foot on the ropes, causing Punk to have to break the hold. Punk gets up quickly and stomps Joe's foot while it's still on the ropes. Joe grabs his foot in pain.
Jerry: HAHA! First, Punk takes out Joe's strength, now he's assaulting the leg, virtually cutting Joe in half!
Punk points at his wrist as Joe slowly got up. When Joe gets up, Punk lifts Joe up on his shoulder, signaling the GTS. However, Joe slides off Punk's shoulder and hits a German suplex, sending Punk to the ground. Punk pulls himself up to a sitting position. Joe chops Punk's back, turns and kicks him in the chest with his good foot, runs (limping) against the ropes and nails Punk with a jumping knee drop. Joe and Punk get up slowly, Joe favoring his foot. Punk goes for a clothesline, but Joe grabs him and hits an overhead belly to belly suplex. Joe gets behind Punk and hits a bridging Dragonplex with a pin, and gets the three count on Punk.
Winner: Samoa Joe by Pinfall
Time: 10 minutes, 31 seconds.
Joe advances to the semi-finals.

SUPERSTAR TITLE QUARTER-FINALS: AJ Styles VS Kurt Angle
AJ goes for a tie up, but Angle drags him down, instantly going for a leglock. Angle holds it in for awhile, but AJ kicks Angle off of him, sending Angle over the top rope. AJ jumps onto the top rope and jumps toward Angle, but Kurt moves out of the way. AJ lands gut first on the guard rail. Angle lifts Styles off the guard rail as the ref begins his count. Angle pushes AJ into the guard rail again before pushing AJ back into the ring. Angle rolls in and goes for an early Angle Slam, but AJ back flips over Angle and drop kick's Angle against the turnbuckle. Angle steps away from the corner and AJ hits a back flip kick, sending Angle to the ground. AJ clutches at his ribs as he takes advantage for awhile. Eventually, AJ goes for a suplex, but Angle moves his way back down and hits an overhead belly to belly, putting Angle back in the driver's seat. Angle locks in a rear naked choke and almost choke's AJ out, but AJ moves back up to a standing position, snapmare's Angle over his shoulder, and hits a dropkick to Angle's back. Angle gets up and Styles lifts him up, going for the Styles Clash. However, at the last second, Angle rolls between AJ's legs and locks in the Angle Lock, grapevining AJ's leg. AJ is able to hang on for about a minute, before finally tapping out
Winner: Kurt Angle by Submission
Time: 12 minutes, 21 seconds
Angle advances to the semi finals
Angle climbs up to the top ropes and raises his arms in victory, as the fans chant “You Suck!”

When we come back from the break, Mean Gene Okerlund is standing with “Stone Cold” Steve Austin.
Gene: Ladies and gentleman, my guest at this time, Stone Cold Steve Austin. Steve, earlier tonight, The Rock pointed out that he has two wins against you at Wrestlemania, and that he will beat you tonight. What are your thoughts

Austin:...boy, what the hell are you doing here?
Santino: Well, mister “Rock Chilly”, I know that you like the beer, so I thought before you beat the Rock in front of his millions.... and a-millions.... of haters, I would drink some beers with you.
Austin: Well, now your speaking Stone Cold's language. Gimme some beer!
Santino lifts up a 12 pack of bud light
Austin: What the hell is that light beer bullshit?
Santino: Well, I'm a-trying to watch my weight right now.
Austin: I don't drink light beer, boy
Santino: Aw, c'mon! Just a-one beer!
Austin: Okay, let's try this. If you want stone cold to drink a beer....
Santino: Wait, stone cold?
Austin: ….If you want STONE COLD to drink a beer with this spaghetti-munchin' sumbitch, gimme a hell yeah
Crowd screams “Hell Yeah”

Santino grabs two beers and hands Austin one. They open it and start to drink, but Austin hits Santino with a stone cold stunner. Austin gets up and walks back to Mean Gene
Austin: Anyway, like I was saying, tonight I'm gonna whip The Rock's ass, and that's the bottom line, cuz' stone cold said so!
