WWE Thunderstruck
{Unforgiven, week 2/4}
San Diego Sports arena, San Diego, California
A video package airs highlighting the major issues that took place last week. It begins with Teddy Long making the six series matches to determine who will enter the elimination chamber for the richest prize in the business, the WWE Championship. The video then goes on to show all three matches and how they ended before the Elimination Chamber picture so far ends the package. It shows Chris Benoit, Randy Orton, Eddie Guerrero and three question marks with the steel structure in the background.
The pyros get the whole arena to their feet as it is time for WWE Thunderstruck on a cold, winter night in San Diego. We get a shot of the fans excited about the show before hearing the voice of JR in the background.
JR: Welcome Live to Monday Night Thunderstruck! What a night we have lined up for you already tonight.
Tazz: You hit the nail on the head with that call, twelve competitors, six matches, but only one to get the final prize, the vacant WWE Championship. No prizes for second in this battle.
JR: Yes and the final three matches will take place tonight. We will see Batista taking on Rey Mysterio, a Triple Threat Match and what a battle the final match will be, John Cena vs. the Olympic Gold Medallist in Kurt Angle.
Tazz: Blockbuster of a night but that won’t be it. We saw a lot of things start last week, how about that confrontation between Christian and Kurt Angle, what advances will be made with that heated rivalry.
JR: Who knows but I know one thing, it’s Showtime Ladies and Gentlemen!
Chris Benoit’s entrance music gets the fans to their feet as he strides down to the ring after a huge win last week. He steps into the ring and takes a look at the fans before spitting on the ground in the exact same manner as last week. Benoit snatches the mic off Garcia after she introduces him and coughs wanting the fans attention.
Chris Benoit: Last week was a historic night for this company but who the hell cares about that. It was a historic night for me as I destroyed the so called Monster Kane and rightfully secured my spot in the Elimination chamber match at Unforgiven. I beat him 1,2,3 just like I said I would and like I said last week……
Asshole chants echo through the building
Chris Benoit: Like I said last week, I don’t care how it gets done, all that matters is that Chris Benoit becomes WWE Champion and I prove to the world that I do not need all of your support. I don’t care if you don’t like my tactics before as far as I’m concerned you can all go and get screwed. I don’t need to say anymore, you should get my point by now if you were halfly intelligent human beings. But seem we are in San Diego, I’ll just have to explain myself again so that even all of you can understand.
The whole arena is going nuts with boo’s while numerous negative chants for Benoit a getting started.
Chris Benoit: I am my own man, I don’t need……
Eddie Guerrero’s music hits the PA system and here comes another man who has advanced to the Elimination Chamber. Eddie Guerrero gets a huge pop from the fans as he makes his way to the ring with his own mic in hand.
Eddie Guerrero: Chris, Chris Benoit? Is that you bro or has your body been taking over by one self centered, arrogant jerk!
The crowd agrees with Eddie and erupts with a loud “Eddie” chant.
Eddie Guerrero: I mean we use to be brother holms and as far as I was concerned we still are. But Chris, I’m still not getting what has come over you. I mean telling the fans that you don’t need them, winning the way you did last week. Even though that is vintage Guerrero it’s unlike you man. The thing that really pisses me off though is your attitude towards wrestling, every single superstar in the back and even worse these fans holms. They have been behind you for the last 18 years and this is what you do to repay them? Come on Chris, what have gotten over you?
Chris Benoit takes a walk around the ring.
Chris Benoit: What has gotten into me, what has gotten in to me!, what has gotten into me!!. I’ll tell you what has gotten into me, The WWE Championship! I want it, I want the belt so bad and these people that call themselves fans have gotten me nowhere. Sure they were behind me when I won my first ever big one but that took 18 years and it was my own courage, my own sacrifices that got me there. Not these people, not you Eddie but Myself. So as far as me and you as friends. If you don’t support me with this than I guess we are no longer friends which makes you an enemy.
Eddie Guerrero: No, I don’t want it to be like that. We have watched each other back for a long time now and I’m not going to let that change. I mean VIVA LA RASA essay we are like family, we are as close to familiar as your going to get so I am telling you now Chris. Put an end to this crap and apologize for what you have said over the last couple of weeks.
Chris Benoit: Apologize?
Chris Benoit’s intense facial expression changes to a sincere one.
Chris Benoit: Your right Eddie, I do need to apologize. I need to apologize to my fans throughout the world and I need to Apologize to you Eddie. Come here brother.
Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero hug in the middle of a wrestling ring and how fitting is that. Benoit looks to be crying as Eddie tends to him and ask him if he is alright. Benoit then snaps his head back up, looks deep into Eddie’s eyes and comes off with a cheap shot, a square kick right between the legs. Guerrero is rolling all over the ring in pain as Benoit stands there frozen staring at him. Benoit shakes his head to get out of the daze and circles around Eddie Guerrero. Benoit stops and looks at the fans as they boo before spitting right on top of Eddie Guerrero and exiting the ring. Benoit slowly walks back up the isle to no music staring straight back at his now former friend. Guerrero is still down as Benoit disappears through the curtains.
JR: What the hell, who the hell does Benoit think he is? That was his friend, they have gone through everything together and that’s what he does.
Tazz: Wow! That’s low even I have to admit it JR. These two were inseparable and now well now look at the situation.
JR: Chris Benoit really needs to do some soul searching before re-entering that ring in three weeks time at Unforgiven. If he doesn’t, well in that environment who knows what’s going to happen!
Tazz: Eddie Guerrero must feel so betrayed at the moment and he has a reason to be. I am sincere when I say, I hope Chris Benoit gets what’s coming to him!
Eddie Guerrero looks disappointed in the ring before sliding out and charging down the isle way as we go to a commercial break.
*Commercial Break*
When we come back Chavo Guerrero is charging down the corridor. We see a door on it that says “GM- Theodore Long as Guerrero opens it and goes straight in.
Teddy Long: Who the hell do you think you are charging into my office like it’s your own? You better make this quick because I have things to do playa.
Chavo Guerrero: Last week, Thunderstruck, I was screwed out of the Cruiserweight Championship by that punk Paul London. I deserve the first shot at him, I know it, you know it and Paul London certainly knows it. If I get a chance at him again I will not fail, I will leave him for dead and take his Cruiserweight title.
Teddy Long: Calm down a bit playa. I am the General Manager of Thunderstruck and whether you like it or not I have got all the power around here. Paul London is indeed here tonight so why don’t you find him and ask him if he thinks you deserve a shot. You feeling me Chavo.
Chavo Guerrero: What? You’re the freakin GM, I’m not going looking for Paul London.
A hand comes from nowhere and taps Chavo Guerrero on the back, the camera angle changes and we see its Paul London.
Paul London: Looking for me? Didn’t have to look far did you. Let me get this straight. You want a shot at the Cruiserweight Championship, Paul London vs. Chavo Guerrero one on one. If that’s what you want then that’s what you’ll get but to get it you have to prove to me that you are worthy of it.
Chavo Guerrero: Paul London, you listen to me.
Paul London: Will you stop your freakin complaining! And you better listen to me mate. Right here tonight in San Diego! We each chose two partners and have a 6 man tag team match. If you manage to pin me then at Unforgiven I will give you a title shot and if you don’t pin me. You’ll still get a title shot because I want to beat the crap out of you! If I win though, it’s with my stipulations and you won’t like what I’ve got in store for you. Thanks Teddy!
Teddy Long: Holla to you Playa!
Paul London prances out of the room looking happy with himself and Chavo is standing there with mixed reactions.
Batista’s music rocks the arena and the fans are pumped for the entrance of the Animal. Batista solutes the fans and executes his usual entrance before his music comes to a halt and the fans cheers fade to a silence. Rey Mysterio’s entrance theme is sudden as it hits and he makes his way to the ring but not with his usual bounce in his step. He is getting boo’s in his own home town of San Diego. JR and Tazz recap what happened last week in the tag team match before the referee signals for the bell to start the match.
{MATCH 1}
Singles Match
Qualifying Match 4
Batista vs. Rey Mysterio
MATCH FINISH
This has been a rather quick match with several acts of fast movement from Rey Mysterio but Batista has him under control so far. Batista is choking Mysterio in the corner before tossing him across the ring with no effort at all. Mysterio uses the ropes for momentum but Batista uses it against him with a huge spinebuster rattling the mat below. Batista plays the fans before setting Mysterio up for the Batista bomb only to see Mysterio slip off the back and dropkick Batista onto the middle rope. Mysterio takes a long time to regain his composure before attempting the 619 but Batista explodes with a decapitating clothesline. Batista signals for the Batista Bomb once again this time nailing it and rolling into a comfortable one leg hook. 1…2…3! And Batista has beaten Mysterio to advance!
WINNER: Batista
MATCHTIME: 6 minutes
JR: Too big, too strong and truthfully I can’t think of anybody who can stop this man in the Elimination Chamber!
Tazz: impressive performance from Batista but we have to take our hats off to Rey as well, he put in a great effort but it wasn’t to be.
JR: It all doesn’t matter in the end, Batista defeated Rey Mysterio in Mysterio’s home town and Mysterio isn’t happy about it.
Tazz: Well done Rey!
Rey Mysterio is just gaining his breath in the ring and the crowd has mixed reactions for him. Mysterio takes a mic.
Rey Mysterio: This is San Diego, my own town and this is what I get. Kurt was right, the fans are not with me at all. You are against me and I have only five words for all you deceiving *Mexican swear word*, I will make an impact!
Mysterio is leaving the ring as we go to a break
*Commercial Break*
I spit in the face of people who don’t want to be cool, here comes Carlito Cool. Carlito is chewing on an apple as usual as he enters the ring with a mic in hand.
Carlito Cool: Last week on Thunderstruck I held the greatest talk show in wrestling history, Carlito’s Cabana and what took place was very…cool! Eugene Dinsmore was my special guest and he disrespected Carlito so I did what I do best, I spat in his face. Now I just wanted to clear something up with you WWE fans. Do you think Eugene is cool?
The fans pop as Carlito looks disgusted
Carlito Cool: You just proved what a knew all along. San Diego is nothing but a city of unintelligent retards just like Eugene.
Carlito picks up major heat for that comment!
Carlito Cool: Eugene I will let you off this time, you won’t have to face me in a match because I think you learnt your lesson. Don’t ever come back to the WWE! Nobody likes you and nobody wants you in this business because you are an embarrassment to the WWE’s reputation, all the superstars in the back and most importantly, me. Just make the right decision and I will let you keep your health but if you make the wrong decision I will take your health and if you really annoy Carlito, I will take your life! That, that would be cool.
Carlito stares with intent into space until Eugene appears on the screen. Carlito hears the fans cheers and looks up to see what the noise is all about and he see’s Eugene. Eugene is looking intense and is shaking in anger.
Eugene: Carlito, you heart me. My doctor told me that I can’t wrestle for a few weeks and I want to wrestle! I want to wrestle you Carlito because I want to do to you what you did to me so you will be sitting at home like me. Watching me on TV just like I’m watching you now, having your mummy care for you and being angry like I am now. My doctor said I will be able to wrestle in 18 days at Unforgiven, actually.
Eugene is counting on his fingers before nodding his head.
Eugene: 20 days at Unforgiven so Carlito. (Eugene Hesitates) I am challenging you to a match!
Carlito laughs after hearing this before settling down.
Carlito Cool: You’re serious?
Eugene nods his head and his body begins shaking.
Carlito Cool: Ahhh, actually I don’t think that will work for me. I’ve got other plans for Unforgiven.
Eugene grabs his head and springs out of his chair. He begins banging is head against a table and then the wall. He stares right into the camera and points at Carlito saying “you” before punching it out.
Carlito looks freaked out and scared and quickly exits the ring wanting to get out of the place.
JR: I have never seen Eugene that intense, he wants revenge on Carlito but Carlito refuses to accept a match with him.
Tazz: Do you blame him? Just watching Eugene then made me shiver so just imagine how Carlito is feeling. He doesn’t think it’s cool!
JR: Sooner or later Carlito will have to pay for what happened last week and I have a feeling we won’t have to wait long for Eugene to return and by all means, he will be unforgiving on Carlito Caribbean Cool.
We leave the ring scene and go backstage where Rey Mysterio is charging towards the building exit with his bags. He is about to open the exit door when somebody beats him to it from the outside. RVD has just entered the building.
RVD: Dude, watch where you’re going.
Rey Mysterio: Just get out of my way!
RVD: What’s the big hurry man, hey I was just watching your match against Batista on the way here and dude you got demolished.
Rey Mysterio: What are you trying to prove?
RVD: I’m trying to prove that you don’t belong in the WWE Championship scene, that place is reserved for the one and only Rob Van Dam.
RVD does his hand signals while chanting his name and the crowd does it with him.
Rey Mysterio: Am a wrong or did I see you lose to Eddie Guerrero just last week?
RVD: That would be correct but me and Eddie are to even and to predict a match between us is nearly impossible, he got the break last week. Me and Eddie could have ten great matches and in the end it would be even but you vs. Batista. I’d predict about 10-0 and the exact same outcome as tonight.
Rey Mysterio: Is that so Mr. Monday Night? That’s what you call yourself isn’t it. Well like I said earlier, I am going to make and Impact and if I can’t be WWE Champion than I will take home the Intercontinental Championship.
RVD smiles
RVD: Not without getting through me first, you see I have already come to an agreement with Mr. Long. He said seem I put on such a show last week that no matter what happens I am assured to be in the vacant Intercontinental championship match.
Rey Mysterio: Is that right?
Rob Van Dam: It’s as true as when your shoulders were counted down, 1…2…3 tonight.
Rey Mysterio: If you think you’re so great than I am challenging you to a match next week for the Intercontinental Championship.
Rob Van Dam: Dude that would be awesome but as much as I would love to kick your ass all over the arena, it’s the GM’s decision.
Rey Mysterio: That Championship already has my name on it, I will find Theodore Long and I will make the match official.
RVD: You don’t have to look far.
RVD points behind Mysterio where the GM is standing listening to every word.
Teddy Long: What’s up playas? I see we have a delemar here that needs to be solved. I have promised RVD the first crack at the Intercontinental Championship and I will stay true to my word. So next week I do plan on have the vacant Intercontinental Championship on the line and now that I think about it this sounds like a good idea. Ya Feeling me so next week it will be RVD vs. Rey Mysterio for the Intercontinental Championship. It’s on!
Both men look happy about it as they go nose to nose as the picture fades to black.
We see a shot of Paul London walking down the corridor with two shadows lurking behind him and Cruiserweight 6 man tag action is next.
*Commercial Break*
OOOOOO CHAVO! Chavo’s music hits the PA system. Chavo Guerrero looks cockier than ever as he sops in the middle of the ramp and points to the curtains. Akio followed by Billy Kidman appear. The team of three makes their way to the ring to heat from the live audience. Paul London’s entrance theme hits as he charges to the ring with intent but doesn’t slide in, instead stopping at the edge of the squared circle. This time London points to the entrance way and Shannon Moore followed by The Hurricane appear. All three faces group up and slide into the ring in unison. The match is on the way and out of control already as all 6 men are uploading with closed fists.
{MATCH 2}
Six Man Tag Team Match
Paul London/Hurricane/Moore vs. Chavo Guerrero/Akio/Billy Kidman
MATCH ENDING
Chavo Guerrero’s team has made several tags in the last few minutes to isolate The Hurricane. Chavo Guerrero has got a surfboard stretch locked in but Hurricane managers to fight his way up. He drills a couple of stiff forearms to the sternum and runs off the ropes. Chavo attempts a clothesline but Hurricane evades it and comes back with a mid air crossbody. 1…2… Chavo Guerrero rolls out! Hurricane tries to make a tag to Paul London but Chavo holds him back by the legs only to be hit with a perfectly executed enzugure. Paul London gets the tag. He explodes with three consecutive knockdown clotheslines and a dropsault to Chavo. Kidman enters the ring only to be hit with an athletic sidekick to the chin from the CW Champ. Akio is next but he dodges a sidekick and takes London’s legs out with an effective leg sweep. Moore enters the ring and loads up on Akio with right hands before using the ropes for momentum to nail the Mooregasm neckbreaker. Shannon pumps up the crowd and there are bodies all over the ring. Chavo Guerrero is back to his feet and clothslines Moore over the top rope before taunting the fans. Paul London sneaks up behind him and rolls him into an Oklahoma Roll. 1…2… Billy Kidman breaks up the count. Kidman levels London with the right fists but London comes back with some of his own and delivers a straight kick to the back of the head. Chavo Guerrero and Paul London are the only men left in the ring and Chavo is right behind the champion. London turns around as Chavo hoists him up for a Gory bomb but London slides out the back and rolls Chavo into a tight victory Roll. 1…2… Chavo reverses the pinning predicament into one of his own and holds Akio’s hands on the outside! 1…2…3 and The Cruiserweight Champion has been pinned.
WINNER: Chavo Guerrero, Akio, Billy Kidman
MATCHTIME: 11 minutes
JR: Chavo Guerrero has stolen one!
Tazz: Do you know what this means JR, Chavo Guerrero is the Number one contender and he will choose the stipulation.
JR: Knowing Chavo probably a handicapped match with the same man he used to win tonight, Akio.
Tazz: That match was a spectacle, it was off the charts and the ending was fitting.
JR: That’s your opinion, your wrong but that’s your opinion. The fact is we have just seen another great Cruiserweight Match and Chavo Guerrero is the Number one contender.
Backstage, Shelton Benjamin, Muhammad Hassan and Edge are standing by with Christy Hemme.
Christy Hemme: Guys, you are all involved in a triple threat match for a spot in the Elimination Chamber at Unforgiven. Why do you thing you deserve to win?
Edge: I’ll start by answering that stupid question. What else can I expect from you Christy? Why do I deserve a spot in the Elimination Chamber more than both of these guys? It’s simple, I am the most talented, the youngest, and the hungriest superstar in this business. I have never been champ as I keep getting screwed time and time again. If I was to enter the Elimination Chamber, I would win it and finally reach my destiny of becoming WWE Champion. The fans know it, these two know it and most importantly I know it. There will be nothing stopping Edge this time, I am destined to be crowned the new WWE Champion!
Shelton Benjamin: Are you done yet? That was the biggest load of garbage I have ever heard. First of all you don’t keep getting screwed as you put it, have you ever thought you’re just not good enough to become the main man? Second of all you are not the youngest neither the hungriest. You have had your shots and blew them so I think its Shelton Benjamin’s time to step up and rise to my potential by becoming the WWE Champion. What better way to do it than beat five of the worlds top athletes in an Elimination Chamber match. I have everything going for me, pure wrestling ability, I’m in my prime and I have got the fans behind me all the way. I support them, they support me and everything points to me winning tonight and moving on to Unforgiven and becoming WWE Champion!
Muhammad Hassan: Will you two stop pulling all of these hopeless theories out of your unintelligent minds. There is only one sure thing and that is Muhammad Hassan! Tell them Daivari.
Daivari begins talking Arab and gets major heat for it.
Muhammad Hassan: That’s right, Ever since I joined the WWE I have been disrespected, harassed and my background has been insulted until the extent that I can take no more. I’ll just have to give the fans and everybody in the back a reason to respect myself and the Arab American background by becoming WWE Champion. Then I would represent the country the way it should be represented, my way. So getting to the point, I deserve to become Champion so I can give this country a good name. All that other countries know the United States of America as is a society full of criminals, thugs and selfish lazy fat people. I will change all that when I become WWE Champion!
Christy Hemme: All three men making a good point, we’ll just have to see how it pans out later tonight.
*Commercial Break*
The Rockers music rocks the PA system and they get a standing ovation from the audience. Michaels and Jannetty are pumped but have no gold to show for it as highlights from last weeks tag title match fill the screen. The Hardy Boyz are the new tag team champions. Michaels and Jannetty are wearing unison Rockers jackets and their entrance is just like it used to be. Shawn Michaels is first to grab the mic from the corner and Jannetty gets one from Lillian Garcia. The Rockers freeze in the ring and stare into the crowd as “Rockers” is chanted from all sections of the building.
Shawn michaels/Marty Jannetty: The Rockers are back!
The crowd let out a massive pop.
Shawn Michaels: After a long absence Marty Jannetty has returned and we talked it over and we decided to revitalize the tag team division with the addition of the one and truly, Rockers.
Marty Jannetty: That’s right Shawn, Marty Jannetty is back and I’m ready to kick some ass!
Shawn Michaels: We just wanted to come out here to tell you that the Rockers reunion is official and we are coming for the tag team titles.
Marty Jannetty: Watch out Hardy Boyz! Last week we hand it to you, you guys won but I can assure you one on one with us will be a totally different story.
Shawn Michaels: One on One, The Rockers vs. The Hardy Boyz can you feel the energy because when we’re on, we’re on fire. Now I’ve heard the Hardy Boyz aren’t here tonight but we would like to offer a challenge.
Marty Jannetty: We challenge you to a Tag Team title match at Unforgiven. Give us three weeks and we will be ready to take what’s ours, the tag team gold!
Shawn Michaels: Give us your answer next week because we have got some partying to do tonight just like the Rockers can.
OH YEAH, the Hardy Boy theme hits the PA system as the Rockers looked shocked. They weren’t meant to be here. The Rockers pull their jackets off and keep their eyes on the entrance way but no Hardy Boyz. Both men look at each other confused and this allows The Hardy Boyz to come through the crowd and attack them from behind. Jeff Hardy takes Shawn Michaels and Matt Hardy takes Marty Jannetty. The Hardy Boyz are loading up the right hands in opposite corners. Matt Hardy nails the twist of fate on Jannetty as Jeff Hardy drills Michaels face into the canvas with DDT. The Hardy Boyz look at each other and go to the outside to collect a table each. The tables are brought back into the ring and set up next to each other in the middle of the ring. Matt Hardy drags both Michaels and Jannetty onto the tables as Jeff Hardy gives them no time to retreat coming off the top rope with a swantan crashing The Rockers through both tables. Matt Hardy picks up a mic from one of the fallen Rockers.
Matt Hardy: We are the Hardy Boyz and we are the tag team champions and as for your challenge, we accept!
Matt pulls Jeff out of the ring as they exit back through the crowd.
JR: there was no need for that, why couldn’t they answer the challenge like true men, man to man?
Tazz: I guess the tag team champions have answered the challenge and in in an emphatic way too.
JR: Yet another match added to the already action packed Unforgiven. I wonder what else is going to happen tonight.
Tazz: We still got a long way to go until this night is over!
We snap to the back where we see Kane strangling somebody. We learn that it is Rene Dupree. Kane is yelling at him and blaming him for losing last week while tossing him around the room.
Kane: I’ve got nothing against you personally but wrong place, wrong time!
Kane continues to throw Dupree around the rom like a rag doll. Dupree then goes back first into the wall and Kane kicks him furiously.
Kane: This is what happens when I get mad, I find sacrifices and I feed on the suffering of them. I can’t control my actions!
Kane’s face is looking more psycho than ever before as he delivers one more kick to Dupree and disappears into darkness.
*Commercial Break*
Muhammad Hassan’s entrance music gets the fans to their feet in boo’s. Muhammad Hassan appears with Daivari set for his triple threat qualifying match. He is followed to the ring by the pessimist, Edge to major heat as well. Finally “Aint No Stop to Me” can be heard throughout the San Diego Sports Centre. Shelton Benjamin comes out to massive pops from the live audience in San Diego, he is pumped up big time.
JR: This should be a whirlwind of a match. Benjamin is a great pure athlete and when ever he is involved in a match we know we are in for some excitement.
Tazz: This is going to be an extraordinary match up with so much on the line. Who’s your pick JR?
JR: Shelton Benjamin!
Tazz: I’m picking Edge!

Shelton Benjamin vs. Muhammad Hassan vs. Edge
MATCH ENDING
Edge has just been put through the announce table by Shelton Benjamin with a moonsault off the ropes. Benjamin and Hassan are fighting it out in the middle of the ring, exchanging blows. Benjamin backs Hassan into the corner with explosive right hands before attempting to Irish whip him across the ring but it is reversed. Hassan runs at him but Benjamin gets a boot up which connects to Hassan’s face. Benjamin uses a quick movement to hoist the Arab up and drill him with a Samoan drop. Shelton makes a cover, 1…2… Hassan kicks out at 2! Benjamin stays on Hassan with some hard stomps before whipping him into the ropes and dropping him with a high back body drop. Hassan is straight back up and Shelton wants the T-Bone suplex but Hassan fights out with elbows and wants the complete shot but Shelton rolls out and nails a sidekick. Benjamin makes the cover and it looks as if it’s over but Edge comes from nowhere to break the count. Benjamin hits Edge with right hands and whips him off the ropes but Edge returns with a spear. Benjamin intelligently rolls out of the ring and Edge throws Hassan over the top rope. Edge gets on his knees out of breath as the referee starts a 10 count on Benjamin and Hassan. Both men are up by 6 but Hassan blocks Benjamin from returning to the ring. Hassan nails a knee to the gut and smashes his head off the announce table. He then nails the complete shot on the outside mat and begins to mount the closed fists. Hassan gets to 10 but continues to nail the blows to Benjamin’s forehead unrelentlessly. The referee gets to 10 and both men are counted out! The winner of this match and advancing to the Elimination chamber is Edge.
WINNER: Edge
MATCHTIME: 15 minutes
Hassan continues to beat the hell out of Benjamin with hard closed fists and Benjamin is busted open. Officials pull Hassan off of Benjamin and it looks to be under control but this time Benjamin dives on Hassan with a leaping splash effort. The bloody Benjamin is nailing the rights to Hassan before he gets pulled off. Both men are finally restrained.
JR: Look at these two go, they truly hate each other!
Tazz: What a fight but the big story that I don’t think anyone realizes by now is Edge has won this contest by count out and leaves with a spot in the chamber.
JR: That match was a slobber knocker! I can’t wait to see these two get it on in the ring, I can’t wait until the Elimination Chamber! I can’t wait until Unforgiven!
Tazz: It’s going to be one hell of a show and you have to wonder what else is going to happen regarding the PPV.
*Commercial Break*
When we return General Manager Teddy Long is in his office with Benjamin and Hassan.
Teddy Long: If you two lay a hand on each other for the rest of the night you will be suspended! Understand? What are you two thinking? This is Thunderstruck and I am liable for what ever happens to my playas. Things like what just happened belong in the ring, ya feeling me. So at Thunderstruck's next PPV, Unforgiven it will be Shelton Benjamin vs. Muhammad Hassan! That is final so holla to ya playa’s.
Shelton Benjamin and Muhammad Hassan have a stare down before Daivai pulls Hassan away and encourages him not to get suspended.
My Time is now hits the arena as John Cena appears through the curtains to the biggest pop of the night. John Cena has a chain around his neck and is wearing a San Diego Chargers jersey. He takes a mic from Garcia and strides around the ring with attitude.
John Cena: San Diego!
The crowd pops for the name of their city.
John Cena: The champ is here! But seriously the champ will be literally here once I win the Elimination Chamber at Unforgiven and represent each and every one of the chain gang members as WWE Champion!
There are several Chain Gang signs in the arena.
John Cena: But first is first, tonight I have to beat Kurt Angle. I am going to do it for the chain gang because we stick together and together we are unstoppable. I am the franchise of Thunderstruck and I think we need some big things to happen around here. One, Kurt Angle to come out here so he can get his ass kicked by one and truly. Two, John Cena as the WWE Champion!
John Cena drops his mic and rips his shirt off as Kurt Angles “Medal” rocks the arena. You Suck chants are loud as Kurt Angle makes his way to the ring with a concentrated expression. The referee calls for the bell and we are off in the last qualifying Match for the Elimination Chamber at Unforgiven.
{MATCH 4}
Singles Match
Qualifying Match 6
John Cena vs. Kurt Angle
MATCH ENDING
This match hasn’t been going long and Kurt Angle has been in control throughout with a variety of locks and counter holds. Kurt Angle has Cena tied up in a rear naked choke but changes styles and quickly rolls Cena up, 1…2… Cena pulls a shoulder off the mat! Kurt Angle locks his hands around Cena’s waist for the German suplex but Cena refuses to elevate off the ground. Angle keep pulling but Cena breaks it with an elbow to the temple. Cena runs off the ropes and takes Angle down for the first time in a while with a flying shoulder block. Angle is straight back to his feet only to be leveled with some right hands from his opponent backing him into the turnbuckle. Cena whips him across the ring to the opposite turnbuckle and runs at him with an explosive clothesline. Angle is back up as Cena pumps up, Cena knocks him down two more times before elevating him with a back body drop. Cena then executes his unique spinning side slam and does his “You can’t see me” chant in Angles face before coming off the ropes with a 5 knuckle shuffle. Cena pumps up his shoes and want the FU but before Cena even gets the chance to get Angle into position the gold medallist picks his ankle from nowhere and locks in the ankle lock. Cena is screaming in pain but managers to use amazing leg strength to shake Angle off. Cena makes it back to his feet but Angle attacks straight away with an Angle slam. This time Angle pulls down his straps and once again locks in the lethal Ankle lock. John Cena is trapped in it for about a minute before an explosion at the top of the ramp forces Angle to release the lock. Christians music then hits the arena as Angle loses his concentration and walks over to the ropes closest to the entrance way. Christian appears and points at Angle, Angle doesn’t realize Cena is behind him. Cena rolls Angle into a schoolboy, 1…2… Kurt Angle kicks out. Angle takes another glance at Christian before trying to run Cena over with a clothesline but Cena catches Angle on his shoulders and drills the F-U. 1…2…3 and Cena has taken the final spot!
WINNER: John Cena
MATCHTIME: 10 minutes
Cena’s music re-plays and he celebrates in the ring as Christian laughs at Kurt Angle. Kurt Angle is starting to stir and he see’s Christian standing at the top of the ramp laughing at him, Angle’s teeth are shaking before he drops his head again still suffering from the F-U. Christian puts his hands up in victory and plays his peeps before leaving through the curtains.
Tazz: I still don’t believe what has happened. I was sure it was just a matter of time before Cena taped but then an explosion came from nowhere. We realized it was all Christians doing when his music hit and he distracted Angle allowing Cena to hit the F-U for the three count.
JR: Serves him damn right! As far as I see it they are no even, Angle distracted Christian allowing his opponent to pick up the victory last week and the exact opposite happened this week. It was all about revenge for Christian, good on him.
Tazz: JR were you even watching that last match? I can tell you that Christian is going to pay for that move of total stupidity.
JR: It doesn’t matter now, the bottom line is that John Cena is the final man to enter the Elimination Chamber and both Angle and Christian miss out.
*Commercial Break*
When we return JR and Tazz run through the Unforgiven card so far and inform us that Chris Benoit will go one on one with Eddie Guerrero in the main event.
Randy Orton’s entrance theme plays on the PA system and he makes his way to the ring wearing a suit.
Randy Orton: Last week I defeated Christian to earn my place in the Elimination Chamber for the WWE Championship in just 20 short days at Unforgiven. I am the future of this business and already my achievements are endless. I am the youngest World Champion in WWE history, I have the reputation of the legend Killer and I jave killed more legends than you people can count. I have beaten the likes of Chris Benoit, **** Foley, Ric Flair, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, The Rock and the list goes on and on. Sooner or later I will become a legend myself and take a spot in the WWE hall of fame where I deservingly belong. I know you don’t think so but I do and that’s all I care about. I plan on killing many more legends in a long and successful career but back to my goal at the moment. I have just turned only 25 years of age and I have already had a title reign under my belt and at Unforgiven I plan on becoming a multiple time WWE Champion by defeating 5 other top superstars and taking what’s already mine! Chris Benoit, Eddie Guerrero, Batista, Edge and John Cena are no match for the legend killer and come Unforgiven I’ll prove it!
Randy Orton’s music plays again as he leaves back down the isle to heat from the fans.
Tazz: Randy Orton with solid words there. It looks as if he really believes in himself.
JR: I think you call it cocky or arrogant or something along these lines. This youngster already thinks he is a legend and believes me, he has a long way to go until we can either consider him as one.
Tazz: What are you talking about JR, did you hear that impressive list of superstars he’s beaten.
JR: Most of them by cheating.
Tazz: It doesn’t matter how he wins as long as he gets it done and Randy Orton can really get it done in the ring. His my choice to win the Elimination Chamber.
JR: Ladies and Gentlemen when we return Chris Benoit will have to face Eddie Guerrero and after what he did earlier tonight I hope he gets a good beating for it.
*Commercial Break*
When we return Kurt Angle is charging down the corridor screaming for Christian. He kicks Christian’s locker room wide open but there is no sign of Captain Charisma. Angle proceeds to walk down the deserted corridor as the picture changes to a shot of Eddie Guerrero.
Josh Matthews: Eddie Guerrero, in just a few moments you will be facing Chris Benoit like you have done many times before but will this match be different?
Eddie Guerrero: ole re of course this match will be different. Earlier tonight was one of the most embarrassing moments of my career when I actually trusted Chris and he turned against me. Never in my wildest dreams would I of though Chris Benoit would ever disrespect me like that. I mean he spat in my face essay. So if it’s a fight he wants then it will be a fight he gets. This won’t be a wrestling match because I’m bringing the fight to him!
VIVA LA RASA, Eddie Guerrero’s entrance theme hits the PA system as he begins to walk down the hall. Eddie Guerrero appears and doesn’t look in his usual showboat fashion, he doesn’t even use his low rider. Guerrero steps into the ring and points at the isle way telling Benoit to bring it on. Chris Benoits music hits and the roof is nearly blown off the building with boo’s. Chris Benoit stares at Eddie with his cold glassy eyes and Eddie can take no more meeting Benoit half way up the ramp and uploading with the right hands.
{MATCH 5}
Singles Match
Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit
MATCH ENDING
This has been a long slug fest and we are just past the 15 minute mark of a very personal match. Chris Benoit and Eddie Guerrero are slugging it out with chops in the middle of the ring. Benoit nails a chop, Eddie nails a chop, Benoit nails a chop, Eddie changes attack to a right fist and sends Benoit to the outside with a standing dropkick. Guerrero follows him straight out and uses his head as a battering ram slamming it off the steel steps numerous times. Benoit looks dazed as Eddie sends him back first into the side railing. Guerrero slides into the ring to break the 10 count at 7 before continuing to stomp away at the mid section of Benoit. Guerrero attempts to whip Benoit into the steps but Benoit reverses and Eddie crashes and burns. Benoit is unstable and is in no condition to take advantage of the last move. Benoit slides back into the ring as the official starts a 10 count on just Eddie. He gets to 8 before Eddie re-enters the squared circle only to be kept on the mat with an illegal choke from Benoit. Benoit poses and the audience starts a “you suck” chant. Chris Benoit stares down at Eddie and spits on him once again just like he did in the opening promo. Guerrero looks disgusted but can’t do anything about it as Benoit locks him in a chin lock. The crowd get behind Eddie and he managers to make it to his feet. Guerrero builds momentum as Benoit nails a fist, Guerrero is not fazed as Benoit nails another rone. Benoit goes for a third but Guerrero catches it and retaliates with some of his own. Guerrero whips Benoit off the ropes and drops him with a back body drop, Benoit is back to his feet and Guerrero hits a vertical suplex. Eddie wants the three amigos and gets them, he climbs to the top rope exerting a lot of energy and wants the frogsplash. He leaps off with just that but Benoit rolls out of the way. Benoit and Guerrero are both on their feet as benoit tries to get the crossface locked in, he gets one arm locked but decides to change offence into an Oklahoma roll. Benoit puts both feet on the middle rope. 1…2…3 Chris Benoit wins!
WINNER: Chris Benoit
MATCHTIME: 21 minutes
JR: Benoit stole one! What a slobber knocker that was!
Tazz: What are you talking about, all I saw was Guerrero’s shoulders countered down for three.
JR: You must be blind! Benoit has cheated for the second week in a row.
Benoit quickly gets out of the ring away from Guerrero and leaves looking proud of himself.
JR: Well anyway what a night it has been on Thunderstruck.
Tazz: I agree with you there partner.
JR: We have to go but we will see you next week for Monday Night Thunderstruck!
The show fades to black and the WWE Logo.
