The opening video plays until interrupted by the exploding pyro! The camera pans around the arena, taking in the Titantron, the ring, the announce team and then the crowd! There are a huge array of signs, ranging from a ‘Y2J is GAWD’ and an ‘I cracked the Code!’ to numerous Shawn Michaels sign, prevalent among which is an excellently drawn picture of HBK posing. The camera pans along a row in the upper tiers where there is a 15 person ‘[W][O][O][O][O]’ sing collection. Finally the camera focuses on a huge ‘Vince Broke My HART’ sign.
Cole – Welcome folks to another edition of Friday night Smackdown!
Coach – And we’ve got one hell of a card for you tonight!
Cole – We sure do partner! And for those of you who don’t check out WWE.com, here’s a little taste of what’s coming your way tonight:
Coach – Well we’ve got Randy Orton looking to teach Drew McIntyre something about being a legend killer, ‘Y2J’ Chris Jericho looks to dole out some more punishment on the remaining ‘Legend Killers’ when he takes on the ‘Canadian Bulldog’ DH Smith!
Cole – But that’s not all; the Hit Man himself Bret Hart will take on the ‘Prince of Punk’ Shannon Moore. Moore has said he wants to prove that a ‘reject’ can still beat a world champion. And in our main event, we’ve got a grudge match between Gregory Helms and Edge! Edge cost Helms his shot at the European Title last week on Smackdown and Helms has said, if he can take Edge out of the picture he’ll be more than happy to take his place at Backlash!
“Swing Low, Sweet Chariots, Coming forth to carry me home…” the drums hit and William Regal makes his way down to the ring with the Union Jack flag, wearing the red with a silver loin on the back.
Justin Roberts – The following contest is scheduled for one fall introducing first, from Blackpool England ‘The Silver Lion’ William Regal!
He pauses as he gets to the ring and drapes his colours over the tope rope. When he steps into the ring, turns slowly, showing off the lion on his robe.
Justin Roberts – And the opponent…
Icky Thump by the White Stripes hits and Santino Marella makes his way down the ramp, he pretends to ‘dust’ the entrance ramp, before Nunzio makes his appearance.
Justin Roberts – From Little Italy, he is one half of the Undisputed Tag Team Champions… NUNZIO!
Nunzio strolls onto the ramp and taunts the crowd doing his whole mafia shtick. The crowd is lapping it up and start and ‘FBI, FBI, FBI’ chant.
Regal wastes no time in jumping to the outside and laying into the Sicilian Shooter with a series of hard lefts!
Cole – Is this match even underway?
Coach – No, but you know Regal, he’s not going to wait to get this in the ring! Anyway, isn’t Nunzio and ECW wrestler? Shouldn’t he be able to brawl?!
Nunzio cuts Regal off with a knee to the gut and throws wild punches at him, clubbing him in the back! Regal is quick to recover and picks him up with a massive scoop slam!
Coach – He Nunzio, is that HARDCORE enough for you?
Regal tosses Nunzio into the ring and stops a mud hole in him, on the mat. He drops to the mat and takes a tight headlock on him! Nunzio tries to struggle to his feet, but Regal takes him down with a headlock takeover immediately! Nunzio’s shoulders are on the mat and the ref counts to 1, and Nunzio pops up the shoulder…
Cole – And Regal is breaking down this match to HIS pace!
In the ring, Regal has backed Nunzio into the corner and proceeds to drive his elbow into the side of the head of the man from Little Italy. Nunzio is staggered, and Regal sets him up for the exploder suplex! He tosses him like a rag doll across the ring and out to the concrete below! Marella looses it and hops up on the apron, and as the ref goes to eject him from ringside just as Regal rushes at him, accidentally knocking the ref out!
Cole – This isn’t good! The ref is down!
Coach – Now it’s every man for himself!
Nunzio makes his way back into the ring, while Regal is still distracted by the ref! Nunzio hits him from behind and throws him over head with a German suplex! Santino slides into the ring, and he and Nunzio stalk Regal as he staggers back up to his feet. Nunzio jump up and hits a big dropkick while simultaneously Santino goes for the spinning leg sweep! Regal is crushed and crashes to the mat!
Cole – What was that?!
Coach – The Sicilian Smash!
Cole – And now Nunzio with the cover!
Santino revives the ref! 1…2…3!
Justin Roberts – Here is your winner, Nunzio!

As we come back, Randy Orton is in the ring with the Legend Killers. McIntyre, Noble and Smith are all lined up against the rope, backs to the ‘tron. Estrada has a microphone and Randy Orton is pacing on the opposite side of the ring. The three lackeys of Orton look petrified and Randy looks fit to kill! Estrada takes off his glasses and gets right in their faces!
Estrada – Listen, TO ME! Ch’you were supposed to be the LEGEND… KILLERS!
Orton rushes over to Estrada, grabs the mic off him and shoves him aside.
Orton – I’m sick of hearing it Estrada! You’re as much to blame as any of these losers! I mean look at you! Not one of you is fit to hold my jock! You!
Orton stands nose to nose with Smith..
Orton – You can’t even beat a joker, a clown like Chris Jericho in a handicap match! And YOU!
Orton walks up to Noble and smacks him in the face!
Orton – Not only can you NOT win a handicap match, you don’t even have the GUTS to challenge Shawn Michaels to a one on one match! You make me sick…
Orton walks over to McIntyre, but Drew cuts him off by grabbing the mic!
Drew – Oh yeah? And what about you Randy? You lost to Raven on ECW! You can’t even kill a legend anymore!
Orton glares at him and takes the mic back.
Orton – ‘I’ can’t kill a legend?! Do you know who I am? I’m Randy Orton! I am…
Suddenly Chris Jericho interrupts Orton’s verbal castration of his team from the ramp.
Jericho – Wo, wo, wo, wo, wo! Randy… Randy, Randy, Randy. Look who you’re talking to! I mean you’re running a centre for homeless dogs! Seriously, you’ve got ‘The Canadian Bulldog’, the ‘pitbull’… (Jericho pauses, then sblack persons to himself) And you’ve got the Scottish Terrier!
The crow pops and starts ‘barking’ at the Legend Killers!
Orton – Let’s see you come down here and say that you coward! You’re real brave from up there! But you don’t have the guts to face ME in the ring! I’m the youn-
Jericho – YOUNGEST man ever to pose for Playgirl magazine! The first man to get kicked out of Evolution… The worst personality on Television and the man who lost to Raven on Tuesday night! We’ve heard it all before ‘Legend Killer’. It’s getting old! I’ve just got one thing to say to you, if you want to step into the ring with me I will make sure that you will NEVER!
Crowd – EVER
Jericho – NEEEEEEEVER!
Crowd –EEEEEVER
Jericho – NEEE-
Orton – Shut the hell up! Do you ever shut up Chris? Who do you think you are? Nobody wants to hear you!
Jericho – Who am I? I’m the SEXY BEAST! I am the Friday Night Highlight! I am The Ayatollah of Rock 'n' Rolla, the first EEEEEVER Undisputed Champion! And come Backlash, I WILL become the NEW Undisputed Champion! But I’ll let you crazy kids get back to your little spank-fest…
Jericho exits to the back and Orton snaps smashing McIntyre with a huge European Uppercut! The other legend killers bail out of the ring. Only Estrada remains! Orton measures McIntyre as he staggers back up to his feet…
Cole – THE RKO! What an RKO!
Coach – That’s what I call Tough Love!
Orton covers Drew and Estrada makes the count!
‘Hey, nothing you can say! Nothing’s gonna change what you’ve done to me..’ Burn In My Light hits and Orton storms out of the ring followed closely by Estrada. The other Legend Killers help Drew up and out of the ring. The crowd is still barking at them!
Cole – Well that was a quick match!
Coach – Well it looks like Orton took exception to Y2J’s comments!

Cole – And we’re back! Hey, what’s…? Is that Shannon Moore!
Coach – It is! Look at Moore going through the crowd!
The camera searches the crowd for the ‘prince of punk’, and eventually focus on him going through the crowd with a huge sign which reads “I’m Rejecting Rejection!”. He’s even got a small smattering of fan support as chants of ‘Reject Reject Reject’ are heard coming from around him!
Cole – Well it looks like Moore is gathering support any way he can!
Coach – What an idiot! This is the guy who called out ‘The Hitman’?
The arena lights being flashing pink as the drums and bass roll on!
Cole – Well that music can only mean one thing! The Pink and Black Attack is here!
Coach – Roll on the Excellence of Execution!
The crowd erupts as soon as Bret makes his appearance on the ramp! The camera pans around the arena, taking in signs like ‘Bret is GOD!’ and ‘I am Excellence of Execution!’ and even a group of girls with a ‘Bret Stole out HARTS!’ Then focuses again on Moore who’s still carrying his sign down to the ring, through the crowd! When Bret reaches the ring, he gets in and poses for the crowd, before slipping outside and giving his glasses to a kid on the outside, but Moore jumps the barricade and nails him in the head with the sign!
Cole – That sing must have been made of steel! Hart went down hard!
The crowd boos at Moore and chants ‘You Suck’.
Coach – Wow! I guess I was wrong, Moore’s a smart kid!
Shannon throws Bret back into the ring and makes a cover! It’s a long two count, but the Hitman gets the shoulder up just in the nick of time! Moore is furious and stomps on the head of Hart! Bret tries to roll away, but ‘the reject’ leaps over to him and drops an elbow across his chest! Moore follows up with another series of stomps, but Hart grabs the leg! He takes Shannon down with a single leg, and gets quickly to his feet! He struggles to lock in the sharpshooter when…
Cole – This isn’t looking good for Hart! Hey, is that Batista? What’s he doing here?
Batista makes his way down to the ringside area smiling and clapping sarcastically at The Excellence of Execution. Bret releases Shannon and challenges Batista to come into the ring. Shannon rolls to the outside and kicks the steps in frustration. Batista gets up on the apron and the ref gets in his face, telling him to go to the back. Moore takes the opportunity while Hart is distracted to cheap shot Hart form behid!
Cole- This can’t be! It’s, it’s RAVEN!
Coach – Oh no! He’s got no business here!
The ref is outside the ring and is attempting to expel Batista from the arena, and Raven slips in behind Moore, smashes him in the back of the head with a Singapore Cain and escapes through the crowd!
Cole – Raven has just helped Hart! This is out of control!
Bret sets Moore up and lifts him into the air!
Coach – This is going to be one hell of a Piledriver!
The ref is back in the ring and Batista has been ejected from the arena! Hart is STILL holding Moore up!
Cole – Wow! Look at the strength of Bret! And there it is, this one’s over!
Coach – I knew Moore didn’t have what it takes!
1..2..3!
Justin Roberts – Here is your winner, Bret ‘Hitman’ Hart!

When the video package ends DH Smith is in the ring with Jamie Noble. Are in the ring, the crowd is now chanting “You’re both dogs” at them. Smith is screaming at the crowd telling them to show some respect and they reply with ‘Woof Woof Woof”! Noble and Smith are irate in the ring! Noble slips out of the ring and gets in the faces of the fans at the front row, screaming abuse at them.
Coach – Well these fans aren’t giving the Legend Killers any love!
Cole – They’ll earn it when DH Smith beats the champion tonight!
The countdown hits and is followed by the tell tale “BREAK THE WALLS DOWN!” Jericho appears on the ramp in his famous pose, holding the belt in one hand. He spins around and the crowd is electric!
Justin Roberts – And the opponent, from Calgary, Alberta Canada! Weighing in at 225 lbs, he is the Smackdown Heavyweight Champion, he is Y2J Chris JERICHO!
Jericho runs down the ramp, but is cut off by Noble before he hits the ring! Noble lays into the champ on the outside while DH Smith leans back in the corner smiling.
Cole – This is a disgrace! This is supposed to be a one on one match between the champ and the Canadian Bulldog!
Coach – Are you kidding me? This is great! It looks like Orton’s really lit a fire under the Legend Killers!
Noble rams Jericho’s head into the steel steps and then rolls him into the ring, the ref rings the bell and this one is officially underway! Smith gets to work right away, putting the boots to Jericho! He can’t even defend himself after the assault on the outside! Smith picks him up, and takes him over with a bridging German Suplex!
1..2 and Jericho kicks out!
Cole – The champ kicks out!
Coach – Nobles got a chair! What’s he gonna do?
Noble slides a chair into the ring and gets a second! Smith and Noble set Y2J up for what appears to be a brain-busting concerto, but Jericho rolls out of the way, leaving the two chars to crash against each other!
Cole - the champ dodged a bullet there!
Jericho hits a running ‘Code Breaker’ devastating Jamie Noble! Smith attempts to capitalise on the grounded Y2J, only to have his efforts reversed into the Walls of Jericho!
Cole – The Walls! The Walls! He’s got it locked in! This one’s over!
Coach – Smith is hanging on and, RKO!
Orton had comes form under the ring to hit the RKO on Jericho! The ref calls for the bell and three Legend Killers assault the champion! Noble and Smith nail him with the concerto!
Cole - and now Estrada has made his way down to the ring with a table! This is getting ridiculous! This is just pathetic! Orton couldn’t get the job done against Jericho and now he’s looking to put him out of action!
Estrada sets up the table, Smith and Noble force Jericho to his feet and then Orton hits an unmerciful RKO through table!
Coach – And the Champ is laid out! This is great!

‘Listen! It’s TIME!’ Gregory Helms makes his way down the ramp and slides under the bottom rope. He ascends the turnbuckle and poses for the crowd.
Justin Roberts – The following contest is the main event of the evening! Introducing first, Gregory Helms!
Melina’s Music hits and she walks seductively down the ramp with a microphone in hand.
Melina – I’ll take it form here Justin. And his opponent, the SEXIEST man on television, and the soon to be European Champion. He is (and you can trust me on this girls) Rated ‘R’…
The rapid drums hit and Edge sprints down to the ring!
Melina – EDGE!
Edge hits the ring and Gregory rolls him up in a school boy for the one count! Melina scream encouragement on the outside, and Edge gets back up to his feet, only to be tossed down with a deep arm drag!
Cole – And Helms is looking strong in the early going here..
Helms has Edge in a rear-chin lock, and is applying the pressure. Edge struggles to break the hold, and eventually manages to get a thumb to the eye of Greg! Helms staggers away, nursing his eye, and Edge hits the Edge-O-Matic for the two count! Helms is in trouble and Edge sets him up for the spear, but Greg manages to duck out of the ring just in time to avoid the finisher! Coach – And Helms is running scared!
Cole – Be that as it may, Edge isn’t letting get too far!
Edge and Helms are exchanging right hands on the outside, Edge goes for the clothsline, but Helms ducks under the attempt and drops Edge face first into the steel steps with a drop-toe-hold! He follows up with a Shining Wizard attempt, but Edge ducks out of the way, causing Helms to crash, knee first, into the steel!
Cole – This is looking bad for Gregory Helms, as Edge brings the action back into the ring.
Coach – I don’t know how much Helms could have left after that! His knee might be broken!
In the ring, Edge is laying waste to the legs of Helms, who is screaming in pain! He sets his leg up on the bottom rope and drives his own knee into the back of Helm’s leg! Wasting no more time Edge locks in the Edgecution! Melina is screaming for joy and Helms has no choice to tap out!
Cole – Well this one’s in the books. It looks like Helms is seriously hurt!
Finlay runs down to the ring after Edge refuses to break the hold! Finlay slides under the bottom rope, and Edge bails! He backs up the ramp, Finlay goading him to return to the ring!
The camera fades to black and the WWE logo appears…
