JR=Jim Ross

The show opens and we go to the ring for the FREE FOR ALL.
JR=Good evening everyone, and welcome to NCPW OVERDRIVE 2002!
BH=Yes humanoids, we have anaction packed lined up for you tonight, including a double main event!
JR=Not only that, but we have every title on the line tonight!
BH=And, we are gonna find out who the hell it is behind the mask, helping Raven avoid a confrontation with Al Snow.
JR=But now, lets go backstage, and see who Paul Heyman has with him this month.
Backstage...
PE=Thanks JR! Tonight, I have Mick Foley with me. The commissioner has an announcement regarding the Yang vs Kaz Hayashi match.
CF=That's right Paul. The next NCPW PPV is the second annual cruiserweight tournament, known as CRUISER KINGS 2002...
PE=...but what's that got to do with Yang vs Kaz?
CF=Well, the only confirmed star for that card is the defending champion Wayne Bloom.
PE=So?
CF=Now, the winner of Kaz vs Yang will be entered in the tournament.
BH=Wait a minute there Paul! We've got cameras back in the parking lot, and Kai En Tai are just entering the arena!
We cut to the parking lot. Kai En Tai park the Kai En Tai tour van, and get out. As they walk across the parking lot, we hear a smash. When Kai En Tai turn around, they see Raven armed with a baseball bat smashing the windows on the tour van. As Kai En Tai run back to the van, Raven pours gasoline over it. Before he can set fire to it though, Muta dives onto him, knocking him to the floor. As Kai En Tai beat on Raven, The Masked Man runs in, and flattens them all with a dive over the front of the van. He then lights a match and sets fire to the van! Kai En Tai are trying to put the fire out as he and Raven escape.
Back in the ring...
BH=My God! JR, what were they thinking? This is really gonna piss Kai En Tai off!
JR=Yeah, and could prove to be a mistake in the main event.
BH=Wait a minute, Paul's got Foley with him.
Backstage...
CF=After seeing that, I think we need to even things out here. The main event is no longer a no dq match.
JR=The live show is about to start! Lets get to the announce table!
