Davey Richards was impressive in only his second EBWF match. Angel Williams walked out onto the ramp half way through the match, and surveyed the action. Davey wasn't distracted, but Christian seemed to be waiting for her to make a move down the ramp. He was making his debut with Tomko at his side and he looked good, but Davey Richards was better. Richards hit Christian with the DR Driver for the three count, and another win.
Winner: Richards
Reason: No Christian RP.
SEGMENT
‘Are You Ready’ played over the PA System as the EBWF fans got excited that DX may be showing up even though they had been taken out of action by Wes Ikeda. The fans were soon disappointed as it wasn't DX that showed up but Jeff Jarrett along with Dusty Rhodes, Scott Steiner and Samoa Joe and Nick Mondo. All the men were laughing as they made their way down towards the ring much to the disgust of the fans in the arena. They climbed into the ring and Jarrett grabbed a microphone as the rest of the group stood behind him and he begins to speak.
Jeff Jarrett: Oh did I disappoint you all? Did I make you all think that good ol rule breaking DX was going to make their way out here and stick it to the man? I did didn’t I. You where all sitting there thinking ‘Oh My God DX is Here, Even though Wes Ikeda as told them all to basically f*ck off out of his sight. Well sorry to disappoint you all but they aren’t here they are not going to be here and that is a wonderful thing. But with DX being out of the picture that means the our esteemed World Champion Triple H is out of the picture as well and with that happening well guess what we are without a World Title Match at the next Pay Per View once again. Now some people like Shawn Michaels are blindly blaming Wes Ikeda for this and don’t get me wrong I dislike Ikeda as much as the next guy but this is all the fault of Triple H because Triple H is a selfish son of a bitch and couldn’t wait and build his title defense at the Pay Per View no he had to have it on Warfare and he is now denying the fans the chance of seeing a World Title match on Pay Per View but hey Triple H is the champ and he knows everything, right?
Steiner walked up and took the microphone from Jarrett and began to speak.
Scott Steiner: Sorry Jeff but it has been a long time and The Genetic Freak has got one thing he needs to get off his chest ‘Big Poppa Pump is your hook-up Holla If Ya Hear Me’.
A small pop was generated from Steiners catchphrase as he handed the microphone back to Jarrett.
Jeff Jarrett: It is good to have you back Scott.
Jarrett stopped to think to himself for a minute before he continued.
Jeff Jarrett: I can’t believe I have been so rude. How silly of me. Because you see standing behind me are some of the greatest superstars in the world of professional wrestling today. We have Dusty Rhodes a Hall of Famer in any promotion and a living legend and a former NWA World Champion, Scott Steiner who is The Genetic Freak as well as one of half of the greatest tag team in the history of this business The Steiner Brothers. And The current EBWF Tag Team Champions and two of the best young superstars around today and two men who are bound for greatness, Samoa Joe and Sick Nick Mondo. Now on our own we are all forces to be reckoned with but together as a whole we are an unstoppable force. An unstoppable force by the name of Planet Jarrett. That is right baby we are back and there isn’t anyone who can stop us. It certainly won’t be DX because they all can’t stay in the promotion together for longer than two shows to be any of a threat. And with Hunter gone for awhile and his buddy Nash fired it only leaves broken down old HBK left. And I think its time we let Shawn join his friends on the sideline. So Shawn we have an offer for you come to Death Before Dishonor and prove that you are a man and fight for the honor of your friends against Planet Jarrett. I’m sure Shawn that you can take us all on, couldn’t you?
Jarrett stood in the ring and looks towards the entrance way.
Jeff Jarrett: Well come on Shawn what’s it going to be boy, yes or no?
Planet Jarrett stand there waiting for an answer from HBK or anyone else. "Sexy Boy" hit, and Shawn Michaels stepped out onto the stage. The fans popped as he stood on the ramp, and he rolled his eyes at them.
Shawn Michaels: It seems that like Jeff Jarrett, you idiots in North Carolina have forgotten that I'm not a babyface...
They booed a little as Shawn turned his attention to the men in the ring.
Shawn Michaels: Wow-eee. You guys have got some guts! I mean...are you sure you want to go into such a career-threatening match? The five of you...against the legend that is the Heart Break Kid Shawn Michaels? How brave of you. I guess this is what Wes Ikeda meant when he said that I'm next. You boys have no idea what you're in for.
Jeff Jarrett: Is that a yes?
Shawn Michaels: That's a yes. HBK backs down from nobody! But if I win, I'm gonna get something other than the satisfaction of shutting you up.
Shawn smirked.
Shawn Michaels: If I win, I'm taking those tag titles back where they belong...around the waist of myself, and the world champion, Triple H. And by the way... I wouldn't be so sure about him not being on the Pay Per View, just so ya know.
Shawn winked and there was a small pop at the mention of Triple H.
Match #2
Kane made his entrance and Paul Bearer was at his side. He slowly walked to the ring, looking evil and methodic. He stood, and didn't flinch as "My Time Is Now" hit. Cena made his way down the ramp. Cena slid into the ring, not looking intimidated. The bell rang. Cena went toe to toe with the Big Red Machine, without backing down. He did his best to go up against the unstoppable monster, and put up a very good fight. Cena gained control of the match after somehow taking down Kane with an FU. The fans cheered as Cena went for the cover...1....2....kickout. Cena cursed, shaking his head in disbelief as the monster fought back up. Cena ran into the ropes and attempted a shoulder block. Kane didn't budge. He grabbed Cena by the neck and went for a chokeslam. Cena kicked Kane in the upper leg and Kane released the hold and flinched in pain. Cena ran into the ropes again, trying to gain momentum. But this time when he fired back, Kane was ready and got him in position for the Tombstone. Kane drilled Cena into the canvas. 1...2...3! The tron flickered and the Undertaker's symbol appeared. The screen flashed as Kane slowly rose to his feet, staring at it. The screen showed a camera moving through a graveyard. It settled on a tombstone with the Undertaker's name on it. The earth was fresh, as if the grave had been newly dug. Everything was motionless until a gloved hand suddenly reached up through the earth and the audience cheered. The screen went black and then writing appeared. It read "He returns...from the dead...on Sunday".
Winner: Kane
Reason: More original RP with more character development.
Match #3
The next match was the "3LK Match". First out to the ring were BG James and Ron Killings. BG was the special enforcer and Killings was the special referee. Next to come out was Konnan and then Gail Kim. Killings signalled for the bell and the match was underway. Konnan stepped up to Gail, looking down at her and talking trash. Gail not backing down simply took a step back and slapped Konnan right across the face. Konnan was in shock, but that gave Gail the opening she needed to charge Konnan and hit him with a dropkick to the knee. Konnan dropped to one knee and then Gail ran the ropes and hit Konnan with a kick to the head! Konnan hit the ground and rolled out of the ring; Gail was yelling at K-Dawg to get back in the ring as Ron Killings began to count, but stops. Gail looked as if she was going to go outside the ring, but was restrained by Killings. Konnan then grabbed Gail by the foot and pulled her out the ring. BG was looking on as Konnan began to take over on Gail. K-Dawg began to stomp on Gail's leg; one at a time. Gail looked to be in pain. Konnan didn't give a damn though as he grabbed Gail and whipped her to the barricade forcefully! Gail's back went crashing into the barricade and she screamed out in pain. BG then went over to Gail to see how she was doing; K-Dawg then pushed BG out of the way and continued to stomp on Gail. Killings signalled for K-Dawg to get back in the ring. Konnan then grabbed Gail and tossed her back in the ring. Konnan then stood over her and gave her the "DX crotch chop". Konnan proceeded to attempt a cocky non-chalante cover, but Gail shoved his foot off. Konnan looked over to Killings and said something to him. He walked around the ring taunting Gail and the fans. K-Dawg didn't notice that Gail had gotten up, as K-Dawg turned around Gail charged Konnan and knocked him to the ground. Gail was punching K-Dawg in the face with punches and slaps, Konnan shoved Gail away, but Gail then hit him with a low blow dropkick! Konnan was on the ground in pain; Gail pushed past Ron Killings and grabbed a chair from outside. She rolled back into the ring and went crazy on K-Dawg with fierce shots to the back and body of Konnan! The Truth gor in-between Gail and stopprf her from pounding K-Dawg. The 2 of them stood face to face, screaming at each other…
Gail Kim: What the hell are you doing?!
Ron Killings: This has gone to damn far now!
Gail Kim: Get the hell out of my way!
Gail shoved by Killings and as she went over to K-Dawg, she picked him up and signalled for a DDT and before she could hit it, K-Dawg reversed it into a Northern Lights pin! Killings reluctantly dropped into position…1…2….3! Konnan won the match! Ron had a look of disappointment as he helped Gail up. The fans started to clap for Gail and gave her a standing ovation. BG got into the ring and they all looked at each other. Killings grabbed a mic, but before he spoke Konnan grabbed it and spoke first.
Konnan: Damn, you sure are one tough loca, and damnit you gave me a run for my damn money, but a deal was a deal and well I guess that means you're out of here…right?
Gail Kim: Yeah, I guess so.
Konnan: Well, no so fast. You see, when you first got here I thought of you as just a another piece of eye candy, but after tonight…I figured you can really handle yourself, so fuck what I said before, you're part of this group. The newest member of the 3LK…Gail Kim Vatos!
Konnan and Gail shook hands and signal the end of the feud and the beginning of a new alliance. As "Wazup" hit the PA the 4 played to the crowd before leaving the ring together.
Winner: Konnan
Reason: Storyline. Thanks to Phillip for this match.
Match #4
Hollow by Submersed hit and Rain and Lacey made their way to the ring. The two looked solid and on the same page as they waited for the arrival of Sting and Shane Helms. Numb/Encore hit and Helms stepped through the curtain first, with Trish Stratus at his side. He gestured to his IC title with a grin before walking half way down the ramp. He waited, and No Way Back by the Foo Fighters began to play. Sting made his way down the ramp until he and Helms were next to one another. They looked at each other and nodded before charging to the ring. The four engaged in a brawl to start the match before the referee got control and sent Rain and Sting to their corners. This left Lacey going up against Helms. Trish was at ringside cheering on Helms, but Lacey gave the IC Champ a run for his money. After a few minutes of back and forth, she took him down with a headscissors and he tagged out. Sting came into the ring and Lacey tagged in Rain, who hopped over the ropes and hit Sting with a forearm followed by a DDT. Cover! 1..2...Helms broke it up, even though it looked like Sting would probably be able to kick out. The match continued and Rain and Lacey kept the advantage. They worked well as a team and Lacey caught Sting with the lightning spiral for the win.
Winner: MHWC
Reason: No Helms/Sting rp.
Match #5
'Wazup' hit and Ron Killings made his way to the ring. 3LK and Gail Kim accompanied him, and the 4 seemed to be on the same page. They waited for Shelton Benjamin, and Konnan smirked as 'Ain't No Stoppin' Me' hit. Shelton made his way to the ring and the referee ushered Killings' companions to the outside. Konnan talked some trash and as Shelton Benjamin turned to look at him, Killings clocked him in the back of the head with a cheap shot. Konna smirked and the crowd booed. Killings beat down Shelton, who fought back with his agility, throwing Killings onto the top rope before leaping up there himself and pulling Killings down with an armdrag. There was a pop and Shelton went for the cover. Killings kicked out on two. Shelton ran into the ropes and Gail Kim grabbed his leg. Shelton looked over at her, shouted something then ran into the opposite ropes for momentum, taking 3LK out with a suicide dive. Killings was in the ring, and he fought back up. He slid to the outside and dragged Shelton into the ring before the referee could count him out. Shelton had weakened himself with the move to take out 3LK, and Killings took advantage. He hit the Truth Conviction. Cover! 1...2...3! Killings won the match. Konna slid into the ring and talked some trash to Shelton's fallen body, before 3LK and Gail left the ring.
Winner: Killings
Reason: Better Rp.
Match #6
Walk by Pantera hit and RVD stepped through the curtain to great applause. He made his way to the ring and posed on the turnbuckles with his signature taunt. Suddenly the countdown began and the crowd applauded as it reached zero, before All That Remains by Fozzy started to play. Y2J stepped through the curtain and made his way to the ring. He stood opposite RVD, looking focused on the task at hand. The two put on an incredible match. From the moment the bell rang, the crowd was split. Half chanted for RVD, the other for Chris Jericho, and both men put in a performance worthy of the applause. Jericho locked RVD in The Walls quite early on, but RVD wasn't weak enough to submit, and he fought to the ropes. Jericho tried to follow up but RVD kicked out at him, knocking him back. RVD leapt to his feet and caught Jericho with a roundhouse kick followed by a DDT. RVD then hit the Rolling Thunder. Cover. 1...2...kickout by Y2J. Jericho was soon on his feet. RVD went for a spinning kick but Jericho ducked under it, and swept RVD's leg, knocking him onto his back. He quickly hit the Lionsault! 1...2...3! RVD looked surprised as Jericho's arm was raised in victory.
Winner: Y2J
Reason: Better RP, but nice job Sam.
SEGMENT
The fans were about to file out of the arena, expecting the show to be over. Instead "Time To Play The Game" echoed over the PA System and there was a pop as Triple H stepped out onto the stage, World title over his shoulder. He smirked, as he knew nobody was expecting him. He walked down the ramp, took a microphone and stood in the center of the ring. He adjusted his world title before speaking into the mic.
Triple H: Uh...you weren't expecting me? I know Jarrett wasn't, and I'm pretty sure Wes Ikeda wasn't, but you know how I love surprises. Yeah, I'm suspended...for another week actually. But you see...I don't care.
Triple H reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded up contract-like document.
Triple H: I have here a statement, signed by the majority of the board of directors. It seems they didn't think it was a very good idea to have the World Champ suspended going into a Pay Per View, and Wes...I believe they trump you. And you know what? They also thought it would be a good idea to have the world title defended at Death Before Dishonor. I told them what a terrible business decision it would be to go two pay per views without a title defense...and they replied "Triple H, you're right. Pick your opponent".
Triple H paused, paced up and down a little bit, and grinned smugly.
Triple H: You're gonna like this one, Wes. You're really gonna like it. Because my opponent for Death Before Dishonor is... Kevin. Nash.
Triple H dropped the mic and left the ring, leaving the crowd buzzing with excitement.
