Superbeast plays as the camera spins around showing the cheering fans at the world famous ECW Arena.
JOEY STYLES: Hello everyone and welcome to the brand new relaunch of Extreme Championship Wrestling! I'm Joey Styles along with my partner Tazz and it's a brand new day in ECW as we welcome back the boss!
TAZZ: That's right Joey Styles after months of mediocre ratings and mid card talent ECW is back and we're all drinking the kool-aid once more!
JOEY STYLES: It should be a great show tonight Tazz as we start off the four man tournament to crown the new King of Extreme! The first two matches for the brand new Hardcore title will happen tonight!
TAZZ: Tonight we get the Big Red Machine Kane taking on the Straight Edge superstar CM Punk.
JOEY STYLES: What a match that should be! In the second of those two qualifying matches Matt Hardy will take on Mr. Mouth himself...Mr. Kennedy!
No Chance in Hell begins to play and Vince McMahon appears at the top of the ramp.
JOEY STYLES: It looks like we're about to hear from the Chairman of the Board. Man listen to those boos from the fans.
TAZZ: Yeah but if anyone has a reason to hate Vince McMahon it's the fans here in ECW!
Vince gets into the ring, a smile on his face as he takes the mic.
VINCE McMAHON: Welcome to E...C...W!
The fans POP for ECW
VINCE: I'm sure no introductions are needed
You're an a$$hole chants begin
VINCE: I'm out here tonight to set the record straight on something. You see I'm the Chairman of the Board for the WWE and against my strong advice The rest of the board, including my wife Linda, decided to bring back ECW and give full creative control to Paul Heyman.
The fans POP HUGE for Paul E
VINCE: Well I'm not going to let that happen. I've ran ECW with an iron fist since I rescued it from bankruptcy and I'll be damned if I'm going to just give up control of it now....
The fans POP the roof off the place when Paul Heyman appears at the entrance, mic in hand.
PAUL HEYMAN: Hold on just one damn second! Vince McMahon I have no idea what you're doing out here! You have no say as to what goes on in ECW, The rest of the board saw to that. So let me be the first to say that you're not wanted, or welcomed here!
The fans cheer
VINCE: Well wait just...
PAUL E: No you wait! I've put up with a lot of crap from you over the years. On top of that I sat at home and watched you RUIN my life's work in ECW! Well guess what...I'm back and this time I'm in charge!
Behind Vince Tommy Dreamer slips into the ring.
PAUL E: And you Vincent Kennedy McMahon.....You can go to hell!
Dreamer grabs Vince by the shoulder and spins him around. Kick to the gut and a DDT!
STYLES: OH MY GOD!
TAZZ: I don't believe it!
STYLES: Tommy Dreamer! Tommy Dreamer just leveled the Chairman of the Board!
Superbeast begins to play again as Dreamer extends his arms straight out in the crucifix position and Paul E looks on with a smile from the entrance.
STYLES: Welcome to the new ECW! We'll be right back!
###
STYLES: Welcome back fans and I still can't believe what I just saw Tazz!
TAZZ: Well appearently a deal was made behind Vince McMahon's back that pretty much squeezes him out of having any real say in ECW's day to day buisiness!
TONY CHIMEL: The following contest is scheduled for one fall...Introducing first....CM PUNK!
Punk's music begins to play as he makes his way out to the ring.
TONY CHIMEL: Annnnnnd his opponent......KANE!
The lights dim as Kane's music begins to play. He lumbers out towards the ring. Kane steps into the ring and walks to the middle. He raises his hands in the air and then slams them downward and pyro explodes from the ringposts!
STYLES: I'll never get used to that!
TAZZ: I just hope he doesn't set the building on fire, this isn't exactly Madison Square gardens!
The bell rings, Punk and Kane circle each other before locking up. Kane quickly overpower's the smaller man shoving him back into the corner.
STYLES: This really is a size mismatch ohh massive right hands from Kane to CM Punk.
Kane domiates the opening minutes of the match. Right hands and kicks. The big man scoops up Punk and bodyslams him to the mat.
STYLES: Kane's going up to the top rope, we know what's coming next!
Punk stumbles to his feet and turns. Kane launches himself from the top turnbuckle and Punk meets him with a dropkick to the midsection! It's the opening Punk is looking for as he quickly goes to work on Kane's knees. Several kicks to the back of the knee and the big man starts staggering. Punk lands a dropkick to Kane's knee and the big man goes down to one knee.
STYLES: Looks like Punk has the advantage!
TAZZ: He's a smart kid and knows how to work the body. Take Kane off of his vertical base and he loses any height advantage.
Punk locks on a sleeper, using his sudden height advantage to put his weight on Kane.
STYLES: Kane is in serious trouble here! The ref is checking him....But no! There's still some life in the Big Red Monster!
Kane Elbows Punk in the gut, once, twice, three times and breaks the hold. Punk stumbles back and Kane gets to his feet. Punk charges Kane, attempting a clothesline but Kane grabs Punk around the throat.
CHOKESLAM!
Kane staggers back a couple of steps still favoring his injured knee but he's back on the attack. He scoops Punk up and...
STYLES: TOMBSTONE PILEDRIVER!
Kane covers Punk
1....2....3!
TONY CHIMEL: You're winner...KANE!
STYLES: And Kane advances to the finals to face the winner of Matt Hardy and Mr. Kennedy!

Camera comes up backstage where Tommy Dreamer is standing drinking a cup of coffee. Mr. McMahon appears from off camera left holding an ice pack to his head.
McMAHON: Just who the HELL do you think you are?
DREAMER: Who am I? Who am I?
McMAHON: Yeah you come out and attack me in the ring and now you just stand back here drinking coffee? Just who the HELL do you think you are?
DREAMER: I'm HARDCORE!
Vince stares at Tommy, his jaw dropped open. He goes to retort something then stops and thinks for a minute.
McMAHON: No I'll tell you who you are. You're a WWE employee and you've just messed with the wrong man. You're going to pay Tommy Dreamer...You are going to pay!
Vince scowls at Dreamer then stalks off camera. Camera shot goes back to the ring.
STYLES: This does not look good for Tommy Dreamer.

CHIMEL: Accompanied to the ring by James Mitchell....The Big Show!
STYLES: This is going to be a David Vs Goliath match for sure.
TAZZ: When did the Big Show get himself a manager? For that matter when did James Mitchell arrive in ECW?
Big show wastes no time grabbing Nunzio and flinging him like a rag doll into the corner. Monster right hands to Nunzio's face. There is no offense from Nunzio at all. Big Show slings him over his shoulder like a bag of potatoes and takes two giant steps and powerslam's Nunzio to the mat.
James Mitchell is outside of the ring applauding and jumping up and down.
MITCHELL: Keep it up Big Show, punish him!

You gotta keep em seperated.... Raven appears at the top of the ramp, the ECW title around his waist, his arms stretched out in the crucifix position. The fans POP for the Hardcore Legend.
Raven makes his way down to the ring and slips under the bottom rope. He drops down into the corner and stares on with disintrest at the fans. He reaches into his leather jacket and pulls out a mic.
RAVEN: When Paul Heyman called and said he was getting the band back together I considered telling him no. I've worked under the thumb of Vince McMahon and his ego before and I really didn't have much intrest in putting myself there again.
Raven pulls himself up off of the mat by the ringropes and continues to address the crowd.
RAVEN: Then Paul told me about the back room deal that he made to keep Vince in his place. Told me I would have free reign and even put the ECW title on me to prove it! So I said what the hell.
No Chance in Hell begins to play and Vince comes swaggering to the bottom of the entranceway.
TAZZ: For someone with no control of the show we sure have seen a lot of Vince tonight.
McMahon: So you have an issue with my Ego? You had no intrest in coming back to ECW because of me? Well let me tell you something Raven! You....Paul Heyman....Tommy Dreamer...All you losers here in ECW...You've all made a BIG mistake. The rule of thumb here in the WWE is don't cross the Boss....Now you're ALL going to pay!
Raven looks at Vince with disinterest.
McMahon: I've decided that at Backlash we're going to tighten up the Title picture. We're going to unify the titles into one belt, the WWE Championship. So I'm taking the top guy from Smackdown and Raw....As well as the one from here in ECW! Since Paul decided to put the ECW title on you...Then that could very well BE you. That is IF you make it to the PPV Still holding the belt!
From out of the crowd comes Batista! He slides under the bottom rope and as Raven turns to see who it is he is leveled by a Spear! Batista grabs Raven before he has time to react and lifts him high in the air...BATISTA BOMB!
Batista looks down at the fallen Raven as Vince smiles from ringside.
The ECW logo comes up on the screen as the fans boo loudly.
