The opening pyros go off, and MONDAY MAYHEM begins to the approval of the crowd.
The cheers quickly turn to boos though:
"DIE AGAIN" by Wolfsbane hits and NCPW Owner Matt Doyle, Comissioner Kiefer Sutherland, and The Dynamic Duo enter the ring.
SNOW: I told you. No respect here in Illinois.
DOYLE: Well, I guess it's to be expected from a place where the COMBINED IQ is about 12.
The crowd is booing loudly and some people are throwing things into the ring.
KIEFER: Last night, the whole world witnessed Mr. Doyle there doing the smartest thing he has ever done, and all you idiots sat at home with your grubby hands on the remote could do was boo and wonder why.
SNOW: And that is a good question. Why?
DOYLE: The answer is a simple one too. You see...Keji Mutoh is nothing but a washed up piece of Puro crap, and "England's Finest" Robbie Brookside...well, if he's the best my country can produce, is it any surprise I sided myself with the best America has to offer? HAHAHAHAHA! NONE OF YOU SAW IT COMING! NONE OF YOU SAW ME AND KIEFER DOING THE SMART THING!
KIEFER: And as Comissioner, I promise to be fair and just...
Doyle and The Duo give Kiefer a strange look.
KIEFER: ...HEY! I didn't say WHO i'd be fair and just to, did I? Lets see...all those guys out there that you people are wastng your breathe cheering? I don't think I need be fair to them. Do you?
Crowd boos louder.
DOYLE: We aren't the NWO. We sure as hell aren't The Corporation. What we are is the Controlling Coalition of the NCPW!
KIEFER: We all hold the cards. And there aint nothing ANY of you can do about it!
"DUCK AND RUN" hits and the crowd goes wild as the NCPW WOrld Champion Robbie Brookside and Keiji Mutoh enter.
ROBBIE: I beg to differ. You see, me and my "washed up piece of Puro Crap" friend here can beat your boys any day of the week! And, with all due respect,  i'm pretty sure that England was glad to hear that you were leaving the country Mr. Doyle.
DOYLE: That's right, you come out here and run your mouth all you want. In the end, I will have the last laugh!
SNOW: You see, we've got a few matches planned tonight that may interest you.
KIEFER: First of all, in tonight's MAIN EVENT, The Dynamic Duo will face the NCPW Tag Team Champions The Innovators for the Tag Titles. The deal there being that IF The Innovators somehow retain the gold, then they can choose their opponents for the PPV.
ROBBIE: How does that interest us?
KIEFER: Well, with The Duo in action, we figured it wouldn't be fair if you two weren't in action! Lets see...at the upcoming NEW YEARS REVOLUTION PPV we have Keiji Mutoh vs. Unabomb for the Top COntership to the World Title, and Robbie Brookside vs. Al Snow for the World Title with the gimmick rules TBA. Well, you two need a warm up. So tonight, you two will team up to face Mike Awesome and Bam Bam Bigelow!
ROBBIE: Whoa there Kiefer, we aint doing that!
DOYLE: If you don't then I will personally strip you off the title right now!
ROBBIE: OK, hows this. We have your little match, BUT...IF we win, then I get YOU Mr. Doyle one-on-one in the ring on Thursday Fireball!
SNOW: You got a deal!
DOYLE: WHAT? What are you doing?
SNOW: DOn't worry, i've got a plan!
ROBBIE: We shall see.
Robbie and Keiji leave and Matt DOyle and Al Snow are still arguing as we cut to...

Sabu pinned Doug Williams with the Triple Jump Moonsault in 0:10:15.
Rating: ** 1/4
---Taz runs in and hits Doug with a chair, setting up for the finish.

Post match, Taz sets up a table in the corner of the ring and looks over to Doug Williams.
TAZ: Doug Williams...you call yourself The Anarchist? It seems that tonight The Human Suplex Machine has caused The Anarchy. Do you really think you're ready to face me in a match for my FTW Title at NEW YEARS REVOLUTION? HAHAHA!
Taz grabs Doug and makes like he's gonna tazplex him through the tabel, but Doug reverses with a quick go-behind! German Suplex...NO! Taz low blowed him! TAZPLEX THROUGHT THE TABLE!
TAZ: I AM TAZ! THE NCPW FTW CHAMPION! BEAT ME IF YOU CAN! SURVIVE IF I LET YOU!
The crowd boos.
TAZ: After NYR, you will be, just...another victim. And just like all this living trash here in Illinois, you cannot stop me!
Boos from the crowd.
TAZ: Just to give you a fair chance...nah, just so I can kick your ass more than once, you get yourself a partner to face me and a partner of my choosing on Fireball and well have a tag match.
Taz goes to leave, but "The Anarchist" is up and on the mic.
DOUG: You...You want that? FINE! YOU GOT IT! But i'm adding two stipulations! First,it'll be a FTW Tag Match! Second, the winning team chooses a member from the other team to compete in another match next Monday.
TAZ: You got yourself a deal punk. Tell me brutha...are you really that eager be choked out? HAHAHA!
Taz leaves, and Doug slowly follows shortly after.

Diamond Dallas Page pinned Rhino with the Diamond Cutter in 0:06:14.
Rating: 1/2*
(Diamond Dallas Page retained the NCPW TV Title.)
---It's funny. With DDP, all his matches are great or shit. I've never had an average match with him.

In the head offices, NCPW Owner Matt Doyle is at his desk, and The Dynamic Duo are making a card house on a table in the background.
There is a knock at the door, and "Lionheart" Chris Jericho and Ralphus enter.
JERICHO: Hey Mr. Owner!
DOYLE: Hi Chris. What can I do you for?
JERICHO: I'd like to request a match at the PPV, and a special stipulation to added.
DOYLE: Well, you'll have to wait a moment there. I generally let Kiefer deal with that sort of thing.
We hear a toilet flush and Kiefer comes out a door to one side of the office.
KIEFER: What's up?
DOYLE: Chris here wants to ask you something.
KIEFER: What?
JERICHO: At NEW YEARS REVOLUTION, I want a rematch with Jody Fleisch.
KIEFER: Really? On what grounds?
JERICHO: I'm awesome.
KIEFER: And? You've got to have more than that.
JERICHO: Well, would it help if I said that you're the best damn commissioner to set foot in any wrestling organisation, and there will NEVER...EEEVVVEEERRR...be one as good as you again?
KIEFER: OK, you got your match.
JERICHO: Yeah, and could I have a special stipulation added?
KIEFER: (not paying attention, more watching Al and Unabomb making their card house) sure.
JERICHO: I want the title to be able to change hands on a DQ or Count-out.
KIEFER: uh-huh...what?
JERICHO: I want to be able to win the title on a DQ or Count-Out decision.
KIEFER: OK. You think Jody may cheat then?
JERICHO: Definatley! Ralphus here saw him cheat in the CWW feeder fed every week when he was down there...didn't you.
RALPHUS: Yeah.
KIEFER: Fine. You've got your match and your stipulation. Now go.
JERICHO: One more question. Why is it that in your films, you usually play some kind of psychopath?
Kiefer looks at Jericho very evily.
KIEFER: Ask again, and you'll find out.
Jericho leaves on this note.
DOYLE: You don't like him much, do you?
KIEFER: Nope. I hate Canadians.
DOYLE: What? You live in Canada! You're classed as a Canadian citezin!
KIEFER: That's reason enough to hate them. (kiefer looks back at The Dynamic Duo) HAHAHAHAHA!
Unabomb has apparently knocked the card house down, and Al is hitting him with a news paper.

---Hamada debuts and Jody continues to be on form.

Post match...
"POISON" by Alice Cooper hits and Chris Jericho enters to boos and jeers.
JERICHO: I hope you payed close attention to what me and commissioner Kiefer were saying!
JODY: What? I missed it.
JERICHO: You and me at the PPV for that belt! The title can change hands on a DQ or count-out!
JODY: You expect to take this belt from me like that?
JERICHO: You damn right!
Ralphus is sneaking up on Jody with a chair.
JERICHO: Don't turn around!
Jody does and grabs the chair. He floors Ralphus with it and turns to Jericho.
JERICHO: YOU SEE! ALL YOU PEOPLE HERE IN ILLINOIS SAW THAT! HE TOOK A CHAIR AND BEAT MY BODY GUARD WITH IT, AND NOW HE'S AFTER ME! HE CHEATS! THE STIPULATION IS A MUST!
JODY: You son of a bitch! You are pushing me too far! At NYR, I may have to show you this chair up close and personal...
JERICHO: ...AND NOW HE'S THREATENING ME!
JODY: After the match! And since I can't lose my title by DQ when we're not in a match...
Jody raises the chair and brings it down...RALPHUS dives in the way! Jericho bails and drags Ralphus with him as Jody celebrates to the crowd's approval.
Gran Hamada has been watching all this bemused.

The crowd pops as Shamrock leaves.
Half-way up the aisle though...
"MPRO TIGER MASK IV THEME"
TMIV walks down the aisle and looks at Shamrock.
TIGER: AT NYR...I fight for honour!
They shake hands, but TMIV hits a spin kick, sending Ken down the aisle again. He then runs off as Ken snaps and gives chase.

DDP is in the ring and beating on Sick Boy. Sick Boy fights back though and sends DDP into the turnbuckle. Mikey jumps in and hits a Whippersnapper on Sick Boy and counts himself the 3! DDP walks out of the corner and Diamond Cutters Mikey. He cunts a 3 on both guys.
PAGE: I don't know, Mikey it seems you have some sort of obsession with me and Scott here. You just can't seem to leave either of us alone.
The crowd pops.
PAGE: Sick Boy...you just earnt yourself a world of hurt little man! For the time being, you and Mikey can fight between yourselves about who's gonna face me for this here TV Title Belt, and I hope it's you Scott! Until you two have made a decision though, i'm gonna sit back and wait. And when the time comes, you'll both feel the...BANG!

Commissioner Kiefer meanwhile is tapping his fingers waiting...

SHAMROCK: You wanted to see me?
KIEFER: Yeah. One Question. What the FUCK do you think you're doing?
SHAMROCK: I'm not sure what...
KIEFER: On Mayhem ,you aranged a match without my permission! You did not consult me, you did not even THINK about talking to me, did you?
SHAMROCK: Since TMIV was ready to accept the challenge, I didn't think it'd matter.
KIEFER: I'M RUNNING THE SHOW HERE! NOT YOU!
SHAMROCK: Are you saying there will be no submission match?
KIEFER: No. It WILL NOT be you vs. Tiger though.
SHAMROCK: I'm facing Tiger in a submission match whether you like it or not Kiefer. This aint one of your movies, you can't act like a psycho and expect to intimidate me.
KIEFER: DON'T FUCK WITH ME BOY! I CAN HAVE YOU FIRED JUST LIKE THAT!
SHAMROCK: YOU ARE REALLY STARTING TO PISS ME OFF NOW! DON'T MAKE ME SNAP YOUR ANKLE COMMISSIONER!

Post match...
RAVEN: "Live by the sword. Die for your King. Fight for this life. One Land one King." The NCPW has but one true King, and he ahs called me to battle. Ken Shamrock...Tiger Mask IV...you do not feature in his plan. The Raven is going to battle for a higher cause. Quoth The Raven...Nevermore.

In a locker room, Keji Mutoh and NCPW World Champion Robbie Brookside are talking.
ROBBIE: You need to be careful at NYR. Unabomb isn't going to be an easy opponent. You can't just go in there expecting to be able to mat wrestle the guy. I know, i've fought him alredy. You...
Ken Shamrock walks in and interrupts.
SHAMROCK: Hey! We need to talk.
ROBBIE: Sure. Is this about the tag match this Thursday?
SHAMROCK: That's part of it. I want to know that we're all on the same page for Thursday.
ROBBIE: Look...you want Tiger Mask don't you? Me and Keiji have gor some unfinished business with The Dynamic Duo. We're all in there to go against guys we're gonna beat at the PPV, so I see no reason why we can't function as a team.
SHAMROCK: Good. There's one more thing.
ROBBIE: What?
SHAMROCK: I need some back up. Our commissioner has booked me against Al Snow in  tonight's main event. I want to know that you two will be there to back me up in case the Coalition get any ideas.
ROBBIE: You got Al tonight? Then i'll be there. Where there's Al, there's Unabomb too...
KEIJI: I'll be there at ring side.
SHAMROCK: Great. I'll see you guys later.
Ken leaves and the cameras follow. As Ken enters his locker room, he spots Raven sitting in there waiting.
SHAMROCK: What's this?
RAVEN: This is nothing but a warning Shamrock. You may be the world's most dangerous man, but that doesn't mean much to me. At New Years Revolution, you will need to be wary of BOTH me and The Tiger. For now, I will leave you be, but don't think that I won't try to help my cause. Quoth The Raven. Nevermore.
Raven leaves the room, and Shamrock looks surprised.

MIKEY: This is't over yet, i'm gonna get the shot.
SICK: OK...i've kicked your ass before, dont make me Cure you again...
Commissioner Kiefer Sutherland enters.
KIEFER: OK you two...i've been watching you on the CCTV, and all you've done since tonight's show started is argue about who's gonna face DDP at NYR. Well, i'm the damn commissioner, so I choose which one of you faces him, no matter what you decide. DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?
Sick Boy shrugs and Mikey just stares.
KIEFER: You two want to fight so bad, then you can have a match. The winner gets the title shot at the PPV.
Sick Boy leaves the locker room, looking pissed off.
KIEFER: Idiots...
Kiefer leaves and Mikey just looks perplexed.

Ken Shamrock, I am not scared of you. I have beaten you before, and i'll do it again! You prove yourself to be a real contender and come ut here alone too!
In a locker room, Shamrock, Robbie, and Keiji are watching this on TV as Shamrock's theme hits.

SNOW: Sure. What do we need?
KIEFER: A stipulation you idiot! Haven't you been listening for the last half hour?

KIEFER: Are you sure he's the best this company has to offer?
DOYLE: Makes you wonder sometimes doesn't he? Yeah, he's the best.
SNOW: Glad you can see Mr. Owner.

SNOW: What's plan A?
KIEFER: We told you earlier!
DOYLE: He was still talking about Shamrock.
KIEFER: Great. Explain it to him will ya.
Kiefer goes to leave.

JERICHO: NAIVE? They teach you long words like that in England?
JODY: Hey, you really don't want to piss me off Jericho.
JERICHO: Why not? What's a midget like you gonna do, huh? Man, they let you go to Japan? Standards must have REALLY dropped since I was last down there!
Jody shakes his head and jumps down. He reveals that he has the Cruiserweight Title belt with him.
JERICHO: YOU SEE! You're gonna hit me with that belt of mine!
JODY: Yours? You lost last PPV, just like you will at the next one!
JERICHO: I'm not standing for your cheating! Ralphus! Take care of this wannabe!

"DUCK AND RUN"
The World Champion enters the ring to a standing ovaton! He outs the title belt down in the middle of the ring and faces Al Snow.
BROOKSIDE: OK Al. On sunday, you and me face off for this belt again. And this time we have a stipulation...that you choose. Well...it's time to stop the avoiding and the running! We are less than a week away from the PPV, and you still haven't announced your stipulation.
SNOW: Is that what you want? You want to know what sort of match we're gonna have?
BROOKSIDE: Yeah, I do.
SNOW: Fine. Lets have a history lesson. When I was fighting in the Indy feds, there was a certain match with Sabu I had that blew the roof of the gym we were in. You can have your Hardy Boyz vs. E & C vs. The Dudley Boyz in the WWF...you can have your J-Thunder vs. The Innoators vs. Zero-G right here in the NCPW, but the true ULTIMATE LADDER MATCH WAS ME VS. SABU!
BROOKSIDE: What are you saying Al? You want a ladder match?
SNOW: Not just any ladder match. Back then, we used a 20 foot ladder, and to this day, it is the highest ladder used in professional wrestling. What I want is a match to beat that. I want a...25 FOOT HIGH LADDER MATCH!
BROOKSIDE: You know, I always said that I will be a fighting champion, and not back down from any challenge...and I meant it. You want that stipulation? YOU GOT IT!
SNOW: Glad to hear it. You best take that belt now, 'cause this is the last week you've got with it!

KIEFER: You're in action again tonight.
SNOW: WHAT?
KIEFER: Shamrock made me sign a rematch of the six-man.
SNOW: GREAT! JUST GREAT!
DOYLE: Calm down Al.
SNOW: Fine. If you've got me in twice tonight, then I don't wrestle Thursday.
DOYLE: Errm....
KIEFER: He made me sign you to wrestle on Thursday too.
SNOW: Who?
KIEFER: It's a three-way match. You vs. Taz vs. Keiji Mutoh.
SNOW: So I can do a number on Keiji right?
KIEFER: No.
DOYLE: It's a non-title match, so Taz's FTW Title isn't on the line.
SNOW: GREAT! You two just get intimidated by the workers. Tell me, is our little surprise ready for the PPV?
DOYLE: Yeah.
SNOW: Did he give you his word that he's not gonna turn on us?
KIEFER: Yeah. Why?
