*A Pre-Recorded Video of Curt Hawkins standing backstage begins to play on the titantron.*
[[Curt Hawkins]] What's up. Party Starter, Curt Hawkins, here awaiting the arrival of my opponent tonight, Jack Swagger. Looking at the time now, we're about halfway through the show and I'm growing a bit impatient now. It seems like ever since I joined forces with Mason Ryan and Alex Riley, my career has gone down the drain. I was facing, and defeating, opponents weekly and now none of my opponents are showing up. Two weeks ago I was suppose to face Goldust but I didn't show up to the show but guess who didn't show up either? Goldust didn't. Riley told me a day or two after and then last week I was suppose to face Chavo but he didn't show and now it looks like Jack Swagger isn't showing up.
[[Curt Hawkins]] So I'd just like to make one thing clear. Curt Hawkins will no longer be associated with Mason Ryan or Alex Riley anymore. I am once again the man you hate, the man you despise, the man you want fired. But I will stay here and piss you all off because I am Entertainment. It's proven fact that Hawkins is Entertainment. I've had the fans on their knees, begging me for more when I was on Breakdown. Starting now, that's how things will be because This isn't the Opposition Hawkins you are dealing with, this is a man that can only be described with one word... Entertainment.
[[Curt Hawkins]] With a new look on things, a new goal must be made. No longer will I try to get two other men into the United States Title scene, for now I will only try to get one man into the United States Title scene and that's Me. I don't want Mr. "No Gimmick" Mason Ryan and Mr. "I'm Still In High School" Alex Riley to get chances at the United States Title because the more people gunning for the title, the less chances I have on winning it.
[[Curt Hawkins]] So Heartbreaker... Show Stopper... Headliner... Whatever you want to call yourself, I recommend that you watch out because you have what I want, and I just won't stop till that title is mine because I am Curt Hawkins. I am The Best Of The Best. I am Entertainment and do you know why I can beat you Shawn? Simple, because I can...
*The titantron fades to black as the next segment begins to air.*
Very saddened by the death of The Opposition, they truly had potential as a group Hawkins leaving the group and dissing Ryan and Riley makes me want to see a match between Ryan and Hawkins to settle things on it. Hawkins changing things so it's all about himself works for the character and at least he has a goal now as a singles competitor. The promo was good, hopefully you can find a feud or something for Hawkins soon.

A video package for Redemption's high rising young superstar, Ted DiBiase, begins to play following a commercial break.
As soon as the video comes to a conclusion, we're taken backstage where Ted DiBiase is shown walking the halls while wiping himself off with a towel. He passes by a few backstage workers who shout yell "Congratulations Ted!" in his direction. He nods appreciating their support with a smile. Ted then wipes his forehead clear of the sweat from that exhausting match with Triple H just a little bit ago and tosses it aside. He then walks a few more steps forward until he runs into Josh Matthews.
{Josh Matthews} Hey Ted, congratulations out there!
{Ted DiBiase} Thanks! That game was harder to play than a hotel stacked monopoly board!
Ted laughs lightly.
{Josh Matthews} It's nice to see you're still as resilient as ever.
{Ted DiBiase} I know right? I've taken on some of the best Redemption has to offer for the past three weeks, and what makes that so gratifying is the fact that I've come out out on top in each of those matches! It hasn't been easy, and it never is, but I think this is finally it, Josh...I really do.
{Josh Matthews} Well you're definitely impressing the right people. Say, do you mind answering a few questions?
{Ted DiBiase} Sure, on one condition!
{Josh Matthews} Name it.
{Ted DiBiase} See that Santa hat over there?
{Josh Matthews} Um, yes?
{Ted DiBiase} Hand it over!
Ted flashes a grin as Josh nods with a little chuckle and hands it over to Ted. DiBiase then places it on top of his head re positioning it for a second or so before proudly standing with a cheesy as ever smile.
{Josh Matthews} My first question is regarding Michael Cole.
{Ted DiBiase} Yeah, ya' know, I don't think he likes me.
{Josh Matthews} I think you might be right. So last week after your big victory over The Miz, you actually ended up getting struck by Cole...Um, apparently he broke his hand...Or that's what he's telling everyone anyways. It's a hilarious situation, he's even got this big cast on and everything, what's your take on pissing off Michael Cole so much that he actually tried to strike you, only to injure himself?
{Ted DiBiase} That was pretty freakin' funny! Hashtag million dollar jaw baby!
Josh tries not to laugh too much.
{Josh Matthews} And what are your thoughts on Michael McGillicutty's comments towards your actions last week?
{Ted DiBiase} He mad!
Josh cracks up some more at Ted's hilariously short reply.
{Josh Matthews} Any particular reason why you did it?
{Ted DiBiase} Well... Technically I didn't really do anything...I mean maybe it wasn't the best time to hand out gifts to the XWL fans, but ah well, he'll get over it!
{Josh Matthews} Fair enough, and do you have any final comments to say to Michael before you clash on Sunday?
{Ted DiBiase} I know I may like to goof around a lot, but this guy pushed my buttons a little too much. He chose to try and attack my brother, he made it personal, and so I can personally promise that come Sunday, I'll send him on a nice little trip to Dream Street!
{Josh Matthews} It should be a great match between you two, and I wish you luck.
{Ted DiBiase} Thanks, now if you don't mind, I've gotta go see a lady about a little early New Year's resolution of mine.
Ted waves at Josh, then begins to head further down the hall until he reaches a closer locker room door with Maryse's nameplate on the door. He takes a deep breath, and then fixes his Santa hat positioning it until he feels it's perfect. DiBiase then raises his fist up to the door, but suddenly lowers it and places his hand in front of his face checking his breath. He nods to himself after making sure it's minty fresh then raises his fist back up to the door and knocks on it in a firm manner four times. After a short period of time, the door opened revealing none other than Maryse on the other side. She looked at him oddly for a moment, trying to make sense of his Santa hat ordeal, but then blew it off and greeted him
{Maryse} Ted, how nice to see you. You're looking very, uh, festive?
She smiled awkwardly at him, hoping he wouldn't notice her disapproval of his get-up. Ted responds by flashing a smile at her
{Ted DiBiase} You know me, I love the holiday season! So um, can I come in? I know you're probably busy preparing for your title match this Sunday, but I just thought it'd be nice if we could uh, talk...
{Maryse} Sure, yea, of course.
Ted eagerly began to walk passed her into the Locker room, but Maryse stopped him, placing her hand on his chest
{Maryse} On one condition.. Lose the hat, Ted.
{Ted DiBiase} But...But it's Christmas time! You know, time for holiday cheer, eggnog, ginger bread houses, candy canes, peace on earth, and Santa hats for all!
She looks at Ted with a serious stare.
{Ted DiBiase} No? Was worth a shot...
Maryse cracked a slight smile and swiped the hat off his head. After swiping it from his head she handed it back to him and turned walking into the room, with Ted following close behind
{Maryse} That was a pretty big win against Triple H earlier, congratulations. Sorry I couldn't be out there with you, I've just been so busy preparing for this title match. What is this, your third win in a row? That's pretty impressive.
{Ted DiBiase} Thanks! It feels good...But enough about me, let's talk about your big title match this Sunday! The sexiest of the sexy....You know, since that's your uh, nickname, not because I think that....Not that you're not...I'm just gonna stop babbling like a fool and get on with what I was going to say...It's a pretty big deal and I know you'll walk out the new Divas Champion!
Maryse laughed at his inability to speak to her without messing everything up
{Maryse} Thanks Teddy, it's nice to find someone who agrees with me. I've just been waiting for this shot for so long, and it just seems like everything's coming together all of the sudden. All of my hard work is finally paying off. I've had 4 consecutive Pay Per View matches, not including X-treme X-mas, then the draft here to Redemption, and now a Divas title match at the next Pay Per View! I don't think it could get much better, do you?
He lowers his head staring at his Santa hat, then raises his head back up with a smile.
{Ted DiBiase} Well, maybe there is one way it could...
She looks at him confused, as he looks down at the hat again. He then lifts up the white rim of the hat and pulls out a mistletoe...He smiles looking her straight in her eyes, then starts to dangle it above their heads. Maryse looked at him as her jaw fell open, she smiled and leaned in slowly as her eyes closed. Ted smiled and did the same until out of nowhere, a pair of hands grab DiBiase by the shoulders, throwing him aside and grabbing Maryse's face, kissing her! After a moment the camera angle widened and it was seen that the culprit was in fact, Ted DiBiase's rival, Michael McGillicutty! Maryse realized it wasn't Ted and attempted to push him off, but in a moment's notice, he was gone. Ted got up from the floor and chased him as McGillicutty took off out of the locker room, leaving a violated and confused Maryse as the footage fades out to a commercial break.

Read the above Part 1 first XWL Redemption returns from a commercial break, we immediately are taken to the backstage area, where rivals Ted DiBiase and Michael McGillicutty are shown in the midst of a chaotic brawl!
{Joey Styles} A backstage brawl has broke out!
{Michael Cole} Ted chased Michael all the way around the locker rooms and he's finally caught up with him!
Just as Ted tries to throw McGillicutty into the hard wall, Michael counters elbowing him in the ribs several times until his grip is lost, then sends DiBiase with a hard thud into the wall! An exhausted from his match earlier Ted DiBiase falls to the floor in pain. "Hey Ted, your girlfriend is a great kisser!" Michael shouts at the downed DiBiase, he then starts to laugh, as Ted tightly balls his fists up on the floor, then yells out in anger jumping off the floor and with a burst of energy spears McGilliicutty into a steel crate!
{Joey Styles} That was brutal!
{Michael Cole} Ted's gonna injure McGillciutty before their match, this has to stop!
{Joey Styles} Nothing can stop an angered man from unleashing his anger! McGillicutty may have thought kissing Maryse was a great way to get in Ted's head, but I think if anything he may have unleashed a side of Ted DiBiase we've never seen!
Ted holds his back in pain, then grabs Michael by his short hair, and bounces his skull off the crate! Michael starts to fall down, but Ted keeps his grip over McGillicutty and sends him face first into the crate yet again. Michael yells out begging Ted to stop but this livid side of Ted DiBiase will show no mercy, he applies a head lock to McGillicutty then begins to walk over to the catering area. He throws McGillicutty down, then reaches in Michael's pocket pulling out his wallet, opens it up grabs a dollar then walks over to the vending machine against the wall and puts the bill into the machine. He ponders to himself as to what to get then presses a button and a can of 7UP pops out of the machine. Michael's shown trying to pull himself up when suddenly Ted runs over to him then smiles at him which confuses McGillicutty. He shouts out "Here's a 7UP" he then raises his empty fist up at level with the 7UP "And here's 5 UP! Michael looks at him even more confused than he was but suddenly Ted shakes the can of 7UP then pops the top causing it to spew right in Michael's face! Before McGillicutty can even react Ted yells out "Pucker up Mikey!" at him and connects with a hard left hook with his free fist knocking Michael out.
{Michael Cole} What the hell, is this a comedy fest or a fight?
{Joey Styles} With Ted DiBiase, I think it's a little of both.
As McGillicutty lies on the concrete seemingly knocked out, Ted doesn't seem satisfied just yet. He pulls Michael off the floor, then grabs him by his arm throwing him towards the vending machine, but Michael manages to counter by grabbing DiBiase by his arm turning the momentum around on him and sending him flying hard into vending machine shattering the case covering! Ted yells out in agony as he falls down on the plastic shards. Michael then takes a moment to wipe his face of the soda angered clearly. He then proceeds to stomp on Ted's body over and over. After what seems like a dozen repeated stomps, he stops then as Ted seems safe from this assault turned around on him, McGillicutty takes a few steps back and charges at Ted punting him in the ribs sending him rolling groaning in pain.
{Michael Cole} Yeah! Kick him again!
{Joey Styles} Glad to see you're unbiased, Cole.
The cameras then show Michael McGillicutty walking over to the catering table and swiping everything clear off the table and to the floor. He then tosses off the table cloth revealing a bare table causing him to hatch a devious plan. He picks up the setup table then positions it closer to where DiBiase lies on the floor. He then gives it a good smack with a smirk on his face, then pulls up Ted off the floor and tightly locks hold of his head dragging him closer to the positioned table. He then pulls Ted off the floor, he's limp from exhaustion, Michael then pounds on DiBiase's back a couple of times with hard clubbing blows, then hooks him for a suplex! He starts to lift him up, but suddenly Ted manages to shift the weight in mid air causing McGillicutty to start to fall backwards and crash through the table from an innovative neckbreaker counter from Ted DiBiase.
{Joey Styles} Oh god! What a hard crash through that table, that did not work out like Michael McGillicutty planned on.
{Michael Cole} It was a somewhat impressive counter, but DiBiase is still a loser! C'mon Michael! Get up and put an end to this goofball once and for all!
An exhausted, yet pissed off Ted then stomps on McGillicutty's slightly bleeding face and then heads over to the corner where a metal trash can was. He grabs hold of it dumping the contents on the floor, then turns around with evil intentions in mind. But McGillicutty isn't where Ted left him! Ted looks around desperately trying to see where he went, then he notices in the distance Michael's running away and he immediately begins to chase after him.
Ted follows Michael through the corridor with a trash can in hand, but Michael got such a huge lead on Ted that he can barely manage to keep up. Ted catches a lucky break when he sees McGillicutty trying to catch his breath. Michael hasn't noticed Ted at the other end of the corridor, which leads to Ted walking as quietly as he can so McGillicutty doesn't notice him. But before he can get within range to swing his trash can, Mitch comes out of nowhere and says to Ted, “How's it going Ted?” Ted tries to shush him but it was too late as Michael heard him and booked it. Ted runs past Mitch and is on the chase once again. Only this time Michael knows where Ted is and is hiding behind a wall, where Ted is likely going to run by, tightly gripping the chair. Michael hears footsteps approaching and raises the chair slightly, setting it up for a swing. The footsteps get louder which leads Michael to swing his chair as hard as he can, only to hit Mitch the camera guy. Michael is left shocked as it wasn't who he thought it was.
{Joey Styles} Why would Michael do such a thing to a defenseless cameraman?
{Michael Cole} He shouldn't have been there to begin with. And he was asking for it after he was making fun of Michael's finisher a few weeks back.
He quickly comes up with an sinister idea. He yells out “Help” which he hopes Ted will respond to. He hears someone running to the scene and quickly hides behind the wall he was hiding seconds before. Ted walks around the corner and sees Mitch laid out on the floor. He rushes to help only to be met with cold hard steel to his head courtesy of McGillicutty. Michael looks down on Ted, who is hold his head in pain, and says to him, “Still as gullible as ever.” Michael places the trash can on Ted and picks up a Kendo Stick and begins swinging for the fences, shades of the extreme rules match last week. After multiple devastating shots, the Kendo Stick snaps in half. Michael tosses it aside and tries to catch his breath. Meanwhile, Ted manages to get the trash can off of himself and is noticeably bleeding. Michael picks up the chair he dropped earlier and raises it above is head, ready to strike Ted yet again. Ted makes it up to one knee and notices the chair above Michael's head. Using his quick thinking, Ted uncharacteristically delivers a low blow to Michael, who drops the chair and falls to the floor in pain, holding his family jewels.
{Michael Cole} What a cowardly move by Ted. For a man that's believes he's to good for underhanded tactics, he surely knows how to use them.
{Joey Styles} You can't be serious Cole, Michael kissed Ted's girlfriend and took out one of his friends with a chair. Also this is an all out brawl so there are no rules really, therefore he can do what he wants.
Both men are on the floor, almost lifeless, trying to regain their breath. Ted is the first to move, as he is trying to make it to his feet, using the wall besides him for leverage, to gain the upper hand. A couple inches away, Michael tries to crawl to a nearby locker room, trying to created distance between himself and his rival. He manages to make it into the locker room but Ted in right behind him, already on his feet. Before Ted can enter the locker room, Michael, out of desperation, kicks the door, which somehow hits Ted's arm. He drops in pain as Michael developed a sinister smirk on his face. Luckily for Ted, Michael didn't get all of that attack due to him being exhausted from the brawl.
{Michael Cole} That's what you get Ted. You play dirty, what goes around comes around.
{Joey Styles} I don't even know sometimes. I wish I could see what's going on in that brain of yours.
Michael eventually makes it too his feet but is to exhausted to stand so he makes his way to a nearby bench and takes a seat for a minute to catch his breath. He notices Ted slowly but surely making it to his feet. Before he can, however, Michael seems to have caught his breath and walks to Ted, almost taunting him. “It's over Ted,” he shouts to him. Ted, winging it, pulls a page out of McGillicutty's playbook and kicks to door to his face, both dropping and shocking Michael in the process.
{Joey Styles} What a kick! Michael's gonna regret taunting Ted like that. It only takes one second to turn the tide and it looks like DiBiase just did that here.
{Michael Cole} What I wanna know is where the hell is security?! They've been fighting all over the backstage area for like 10 minutes now!
Ted takes a moment to hold his arm, having the door slammed against it couldn't have felt good and that's evident by Ted's wincing when trying to hold it. He takes a deep breath then starts to pull Michael off the floor, then connects with a hard punch to his skull causing him to stagger back against the lockers. Ted then pulls him away from them attempts another hard right hand, but McGillicutty ducks it and DiBiase ends up punching the lockers! He yells out shaking his hand, and McGillicutty responds with a right hand of his own. Ted staggers back then despite his hand hurting from that one sends McGillicutty another hard right, to which McGillicutty responds with yet another! This exchange of hard rights continues with neither showing quit, as they continue to fire back with each passing second. Finally Ted gains the advantage connecting with three hard hooks then grabs him by his arm attempts to throw him over to the other side of the locker room, but Michael holds his ground, uses his free hand to rake the eyes of the fortunate son then with great power throws Ted all the way to the other side of the room causing him to fly over the bench and every bag on it comes crashing down on him.
{Joey Styles} That brings about a new meaning to the word buried!
{Michael Cole} Yeah! Do it again Michael!
{Joey Styles} I thought you were The Miz's exclusive cheerleader?
{Michael Cole} Oh very funny, this coming from the guy that wouldn't stop praising Ted earlier tonight.
{Joey Styles} And with good reason, for the past three weeks he's been impressing a lot of people. Some big victories over some top competitors here on Redemption and praise follows with that.
Michael laughs then shouts "That had to hurt!" and laughs some more as he proceeds to walk over to the downed DiBiase. McGillicutty then starts to one by one pull off the bags covering Ted, he chucks them aside with a sinister smirk, clearly he's got a plan and all he has to do is uncover Ted and he follow through with it. As he continues to chuck the bags aside, there seems to be just a few left covering his upper torso. As he starts to remove the one covering Ted's arm....DiBiase appeared to be playing possum, jumps up and smacks Michael McGillicutty across the face with a Monopoly board! He staggers back from the surprisingly hard hit, then as Ted tightly holds his favorite board game's board in his hands, Michael staggers back so much so that he trips back over the bench and collapses to the floor!
{Joey Styles} Now that's using your environment! I think that's the first time I've ever seen a Monopoly board used as a weapon!
{Michael Cole} Even Ted's fighting style is as idiotic as he is...Why hit someone with a chair when you could hit them with a cardboard game board!
Ted takes this time to once again try to recover, while Michael stirs on the floor holding his head in pain, with blood dripping down onto the cement from his earlier busted up wound. A minute or so passes by and the two slowly start to get back up to their feet. They use their surroundings for leverage as they try to pull themselves up, exhaustion is way past setting in and the completely destroyed locker room is just one example of how chaotic this brawl has become. The two stagger forward, they're out of it to a certain extent, especially McGillicutty. They lock eyes at one another then suddenly use their last bit of energy to charge in each other's direction. As they reach one another they tie up and begin to try to overpower the other. But with both being around the same size it ends up being a very even struggle, McGillicutty manages to back Ted against the lockers but Ted turns that back around on Michael backing him against the lockers that next second. The two then begin to move in a circular motion each taking turns at backing the other into the lockers and walls along the way, neither wanting to give up, they're both battered and beaten but their hatred for one another fuels their will to remain as strong as they could be. It seems as if they're at a stale mate, neither can overpower the other, but just then Michael stomps on Ted's foot, using the one second of split opportunity to grab Ted by his trunks and chuck him hard into the door! He lets out an agonizing scream before falling down in the fetal position against the door.
{Joey Styles} The brutality of this fight just has no end! I don't know how either of them will be able to wrestle this Sunday!
{Michael Cole} This was Ted's plan all along, he knew he couldn't beat Michael, so he started this fight that would hopefully in his mind injure McGillicutty so he could parade around like the goofball that he is bragging about it!
{Joey Styles} Cole, we've been over this, Ted and Maryse were about to share a kiss, Michael McGillicutty appeared out of nowhere shoving Ted aside thus stealing the kiss. A justifiably enraged Ted DiBiase then chased after him, what's so wrong about that?!
{Michael Cole} Everything!
Michael doesn't appear to be done with Ted just yet though, he pulls him off the floor by his hair, looks at him with a smirk then disrespectfully slaps him across his face! He shouts "You're not good enough, Ted!" he then kneels down slapping the laid out Ted across his face yet again. "I'm better than you in every way!" Michael shouts down at him. He then places his hand on Ted's chin raising his head up "Look at me!" clearly overconfident that Ted is right where he wants him, Michael then slaps him again, and again, then once more!
{Joey Styles} Is this really called for? Ted needs help, that's a steel door, just walk away son.
{Michael Cole} Walk away? Ted started this and Michael McGillicutty can damn well finish it whenever he wants!
He stands tall over Ted laugh some more, then to add even more insult to injury, he hocks a loogie and spits right on Ted's beaten body! A series of laughter follow yet again, he then steps over Ted, dusts his hands off between the other and starts to head out the door, but just as he reaches the threshold, Ted's arm grabs Michael by his boot! Shocked that Ted's still got something left in him, he quickly stomps on his arm causing his grip to loosen then his idea that he was finished with him quickly fades as he starts to repeatedly stomp on Ted's chest over and over and over and over!
{Michael Cole} You see that? This idiot doesn't know when to stay down! I hope Michael takes this goofball out once and for all! Do Redemption a great favor, Michael, take out Ted DiBiase so that no one has to see that stupid little cheesy smile of his ever again!
{Joey Styles} I'm just gonna ignore what you've said and bring up the fact that this is an example of the intestinal fortitude of Ted DiBiase here. He may be battered, he may be beaten, but he doesn't give up as long as there's even a speck of energy left inside him.
Michael grabs Ted up by his hair, slowly pulling him off the floor, but instantly Ted grabs hold of the back of Michael's head and connects with a jaw breaker stunning his fellow third generation superstar. Ted falls back trying to come up with enough energy to get back in this tight, but before you know it Michael's back on the attack, as he tries to approach Ted, he gets kicked away, he tries yet again but this time Ted connects with both boots to his face! Ted then uses the door handle to try to pull himself up, Michael sees this and doesn't wanna give him any chance to, starts to try for a hard punch, but Ted blocks it then connects with a hard punch of his own! Michael staggers back and Ted begins to connect with several strikes to follow as they head out of the locker room and back in the halls. The cameraman rushes after them to try and keep a good eye on this situation, Ted elbows Michael hard in the jaw, then knees him in the ribs! Michael hunches over holds his ribs in pain, that's when Ted follows with several hard clubbing blows to his back lowering Michael with each blow. Ted then returns the favor from just a moment ago and tosses Mike hard into a couple of steel crates causing them to tip over and the contents spill out onto the floor with cords and tools scattering about. The cameraman then starts to walk forward to get a better view of Michael's state, but he ends up getting his foot caught on one of the cords and falls down causing the footage to be instantly lost and we're taken to a static filled screen.
{Michael Cole} Did that seriously just happen?!
We're then taken back to ringside where Joey Styles is trying to contain hard laughter and Michael Cole just sits shaking his head rolling his eyes.
{Joey Styles} Well folks we just lost the footage of the all out brawl that's been going on between rivals Ted DiBiase and Michael McGillicutty...But um, in a rather humorous turn of events the cameraman ended up knocking himself out and I'm guessing crushing the camera...That's gotta be a first!
{Michael Cole} Isn't there a zoom feature on all of our cameras? What an idiot! Now how are we supposed to know what the hell is happening?!
{Joey Styles} I'm not sure, we're being told someone's trying to get onto the scene from where they were but they're no longer there.
{Michael Cole} So where the hell did they go?! How hard is it to see two bloody men duking it out and destroying everything they come across?!
{Joey Styles} Maybe something happened? Maybe Michael managed to get away and Ted's on yet another foot pursuit in search of McGillicutty?
{Michael Cole} Honestly how stupid do you have to be to not see a cord right at your foot...I hope whoever that was gets fired! We're supposed to be keeping everyone up to date on this situation yet we can't because of this stupid cameraman!
{Joey Styles} Calm down, Cole. It's just a minor problem, I'm sure we'll find out what's going on in this fight soon enough.
{Michael Cole} I don't care! I wanna know what's happening now dammit! This is just unaccep...
Before Cole can finish his rant, the fans suddenly begin to excitedly cheer which stops his sentence in mid track, as the two commentators look up and notice at the stage of the stage there Ted DiBiase and Michael McGillicutty are, fighting just as hard as ever!
{Joey Styles} Wow! Talk about timing, it seems as if this fight has moved out here to the stage!
{Michael Cole} Nice stating the obvious, Joey.
The cameraman on the ramp runs up towards the stage closer to get a view of these two third generation superstars fighting it out. They continue to punch one another with neither responding to any of the shots. It seems as they're too invested in hurting the other to feel the pain from these combination of hard right hands they keep throwing at one another. Michael gets the advantage by ducking DiBiase's next punch and following up by trapping Ted's body in his grip and taking him down with a belly to belly slam on the steel plate! The fans roar with boos as he starts to slowly pull Ted up with a head lock, the connects with five hard shots to his upperback and starts to hook him up for a suplex as he drags him over to the edge of stage!
{Michael Cole} Yes!!
{Joey Styles} Oh god, can't do this!
{Michael Cole} Do it!!
{Joey Styles} Don't do it!!
Michael throws Ted's arm over his shoulder, then grabs hold of his trunks starts to attempt to lift him for a suplex, but Ted places his foot in between Michaels in an attempt to block it. Ted then connects with hard knee shots into McGillicutty's gut, grabs hold of his trunks then attempts to lift him up for a counter, but just as Michael's feet leave the ground, Ted's back spasms causing him to lose his hold over him and Michael then goes back attempting the suplex again. He pulls him up finally lifting him in the air, then just as he seems to be starting to drop him back, Ted manages to knee Michael in the top of the skull a couple of times in an attempt to get out of this terrible predicament. He lands behind McGillicutty, barely landing on his feet, attempts to grab him from behind for Dream Street, but Michael throws him forward, and surprisingly Ted rolls to his feet! McGillicutty comes charging at him and Ted ducks the clothesline attempt, lifts Michael off the floor with an inverted atomic drop, then hooks Michael for a snap supelx, but he manages to land on his feet, then drops down chop blocking the leg of Ted DiBiase. He seems to be ready to finish this, he backs up slowly as Ted tries to stand back up, then comes charging at Ted aiming for the McGillicutter! But just as he's about to reach Ted, he back steps McGillicutty, grabs him from behind for Dream Street, and the fans scream in excitement in response! DiBiase yells out to the crowd then lifts up McGillicutty, or starts to only for Michael kick his leg back inebtween him and Ted kicking DiBiase below the belt and before anyone can even react to what just happened, Michael grabs Ted by his trunks and chucks him off the stage!!!
{Joey Styles} OH MY GOD!!
{Michael Cole} YES!!! Ted's career is over!
{Joey Styles} Michael McGillicutty just threw Ted DiBiase 10 feet off the stage!! I can't....I can't believe it!
The fans seem completely shocked, there's no bo'ing, there's no cheering, just a eerie silence as the cameraman gets a view of a completely knocked out Ted DiBiase awkwardly positioned on the cement floor below the stage as Michael McGillicutty smiles proud of this sickening stunt just displayed here.
{Joey Styles} We need medics out here immediately! I can't believe that just happened!
{Michael Cole} Christmas came early this year!
{Joey Styles} Shut up, Michael! I don't care what your feelings are of Ted, this isn't an occasion of celebration so if you don't have anything to say regarding the situation, without bashing him senselessly, I suggest you shut the hell up before I knock you out. At this point the fine would be well worth it.
Cole glares at Joey, as medical crew rush to the aid of Ted DiBiase after that horrendous fall off the stage. A replay of the horrific event is replayed on the titantron in many different positions as Michael looks down at Ted and yells "On Sunday, I finish the job!" he then laughs and turns around starting to head back through the curtain, and before he does a huge "McGillicutty sucks!" chant breaks out to which he simply smiles at then steps through the curtain and as two more medics with a gurney rush through the curtain after him and join the others attempting to assist Ted.
{Joey Styles} I just...I still can't believe that happened...We could've just seen a career ended here in front of us tonight...I don't; know what to say...We've gotta cut away to a commercial break, but we'll try to have an update on this situation as it becomes available, for now we can all hope that Ted DiBiase is okay.
The cameras then show Ted being carefully lifted onto the stretcher as he barely seems to be conscious. A loud "Thank you Ted" chant breaks out as his DiBiase Posse applauds Ted not sure if he'll be able to appear Sunday, or if this was his last appearance ever again...We then fade out to a commercial break with the image of Ted being stretchered out as the last thing we see before it.
I liked the opening with Ted getting Josh to get the hat and being his upbeat self after his big win over Triple Haitch. I'll be honest, I've never really got relationships in leagues. Lol at Maryse making Ted take off the hat, showing how much of a bitch she is. McGillicutty kissing Maryse is a cool twist which will add some more tension to the feud. Glad to see it going right back to a brawl because that's something Ted will no doubt be pissed about. Even in the early going of the brawl it's very well written to show the brutality of it and the commentary is a nice touch as usual. It has it's comedy moments which makes it more entertaining to read too. The brawl seems pretty realistic too, like one of the WWF Hardcore Matches. I lol'd at the bit with Mitch showing up too, wait, he hit Mitch, dick. Cole's commentary belittling Ted for the low blow was helpful for Cole's continuous hatred for Ted. lmfao at the footage being lost due to the cords. Ted being thrown off the stage was nuts and a big advantage to McGillicutty, really well written up segment by the both of you.

*As Redemption returns from a commercial break Vickie Guerrero is stood in the ring with a table and two padded swivel chairs in the middle of it, as she holds a black clip board in one hand and a microphone in the other, as the crowd boo her*
Vickie Guerrero: EXCUSE ME! I said EXCUSE ME!
*As Vickie shrieks the crowd boo her*
Vickie Guerrero: As you all know, at November to Remember after an epic match between Kevin Steen, Triple H and Shawn Michaels we crowned a new United States champion the Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels! And next week, and X-treme X-mas the former champion Kevin Steen will be invoking his rematch clause in a Ladder match!
*As Vickie announces the match type the crowd cheer eager to see the match*
Vickie Guerrero: Now both competitors have been given a copy of the contract in the back, and their lawyers have looked over them. Now this contract states that not only will this match will be official for X-treme X-mas and will be for the United States championship and it will be a Ladder match. But I had a few additional clauses added into this contract. After witnessing the carnage at November to Remember, after seeing Shawn Michaels taken out of the arena on the stretcher before the match even started, and all three men bleeding excessively , and none of them able to stand properly as the match came to an end, I inserted a clause that states should either competitor suffer any long term or permanent damage during the match that the Xtreme Wrestling League will not be held legally responable. And with that said, let's get this contract signing started. Now first I'd like to introduce to you the reigning champion. From San Antonio, Texas, The Heartbreak Kid, Shawn Michaels!
*Upon the introduction, Shawn's music begins to play as the crowd cheer*
*As Shawn walks out on stage the crowds cheers grow louder*
Joey Styles: And there he is ladies and gentlemen, the United States champion Shawn Michaels! And he must be thinking maybe he's bitten off more than he can chew going into X-Treme X-Mas.
Michael Cole: I personally don't think Michaels can be one hundred percent focused on either of his matches, with his match with Triple H after three months of them going at each other and with a more then fifteen year history behind it, there's no way Shawn can be prepared for a Ladder match against Kevin Steen.
*As Shawn reaches half way down the ramp he stops, and gets down to his knees and raises his arms in the air as his pyro explodes behind him on the stage, and as it ends Shawn hops back onto his feet and begins walking in the ring*
Joey Styles: It's a big night for Shawn Michaels at X-Treme X-Mas, and he's used to high pressure situations more than anyone, and he's always puts on a show like no one else can, but I don't think he can afford to be entertaining this time, he just needs to get a result.
*As Shawn walks up the steel steps, and enters the ring between the top and middle ropes, his music fades out, as Shawn picks up a microphone from the table*
Shawn Michaels: Before this whole thing gets started, I just have a thing or two or say. Firstly about that LITTLE clause, there's no problem here, you see Vickie, I've never been the guy who'd sue the company because I got hurt, I just focused on getting better and better, and that's lead me to being right here, right now, and I'd say that's worked out pretty well for me. And how about this clause right here?
*Shawn points to a part of the contract*
Shawn Michaels: The clause that states that this match will take place after, but not directly after the three stages of hell match between Shawn Michaels and Triple H. You expect me to go through not one, but two maybe even a three matches against Triple H, man intent, some would even say obsessed with ending my career, a man who's had me stretchered out the arena three times in the last three months. If you expect me, to go through all that again, to relive that pain, to relive the betrayal, and exercise my demons, to finally end that chapter of my life, to get rid of Triple H, and be able to end that once and for all, then go into a Ladder match for my United States championship against Canada's resident Lard Boy Tim Hortons, and you think I'd have a problem with that, then you don't know who I am. I'm the Heartbreak Kid!
*And crowd cheer for Michaels*
Shawn Michaels: And I AM THE SHOWSTOPPER! And at X-Treme X-Mas whether it's three matches or four. Shawn Michaels will make sure each and every one of them is a five star performance, and Shawn Michaels will make DAMN sure that... And trust me, it's not just my word, it's as iron-clad as this contract, Shawn Michaels will walk out STILL United States champion!
*As Michaels finishes speaking the crowd begin to chant "HBK, HBK, HBK"*
Vickie Guerrero: Well that's great to hear, but now it's time to introduce the man who'll do everything in his power to prove you otherwise. The former champion and current number one contender, from Marieville, Quebec, Canada, Kevin Steen!
*As Vickie introduces him, Kevin Steen's theme begins to play as the crowd cheer for the challenger*
**As Kevin Steen's entrance music plays out through the PA system, it is met by a chorus of cheers and boos in the crowd. Steen steps out onto the stage for a bigger reaction, Good or Bad, Steen is not fazed as he makes his way to the ring. Steen makes it to the ring and is heckled by a HBK fan in the front row. The fan is wearing a HBK shirt and wearing old school HBK shades and hat. The fan also has a HBK banner. Steen stops and stares at the fan giving him shit. Steen then grabs the banner and rips it up in front of his face then proceeds to snatch the shades and hat. Steen then starts to tease the fan not giving them back, but Steen looks like he is going to give them back but flips the bird and throws them further back into the crowd. Steen then rolls into the ring. In the HBK is sat down and so is Vickie. Steen grabs the chair and pushes it away and grabs the microphone. Steen starts to talk.**
Kevin Steen: Well what the hell have we got ourselves here then? Vickie Guerrero may I just say that is a smashing blouse you are wearing, I mean it complements your figure. Ok Ok I am lying Vickie you look well, let’s not get into that. So XWL have decided to be original and do a contract signing live here on Redemption. So I know from the Showstoppers mouth that we are having ourselves a Ladder match, and its going be after his little shindig with Triple H. Shawny, Shawny, Shawny please don't tell me you are doing the unthinkable and underestimating me? C'mon I thought you may have learnt from my past here in XWL when people decide to disrespect from me. Shawny next week at the end of the year PPV, XWL's festive event known as Xtreme Xmas, you won't be having a Happy Holiday, you won't be having a Happy Christmas, you will be having a shit fucking Christmas, you will be having undercooked Turkey known as my fat ass crushing you from the top rope. You will be having Uncle Nobhead spoiling the party, known as Mr Ladder when it knocks your ass out, then there is the relative or person who no-one know who or why he was invited, known as Kevin Fucking Steen. I will be that relative who just causes mayhem, I don't mean getting a bit drunk, I don't mean dancing a flirty with the wife or something, I don't mean chucking up all over Ol' Grandma Sue, but I mean the type of mayhem I can fucking cause, fucker.
Kevin Steen: I will be fucking shit up this Christmas, Shawn after I sign this shit roll worthy piece of paper, I will be giving you a big present in the form of me beating you the hell out and I will be taking that little present you took from me in the form of that United States Championship and be ho ho ho'ing right back to Canada. Vickie, I like the little stipulations you have added right here thought, I mean you don't want us to sue if we get ourselves a little boo boo am I right?? Well I am not going to sue anybody, because I am don't give a fuck what happens to my ass because I am not gunna cry, I am going to take it like a man. Shawn how are you gunna take it? Like a bitch? Like your wife??.....
*As Kevin Steen mentions Shawn's wife, he quickly interjects*
Shawn Michaels: Whoa, just hold on for a second. You know, I missed that last part, c'mon Kev, I know it's the holidays but do everyone a favour and take that Yule log of yours out of your mouth before you try to talk.
*The crowd let out an "Ohhhhh" as Michaels insinuates something about Kevin Steen*
Shawn Michaels: But I'm glad you feel that way, I'm glad your confident, I'm glad you're as cocky as ever. And I wouldn't have it any other way. And I'm sure you will beat the hell out of me, I'm sure X-Treme X-Mas will be one of the most agonising nights in my career. But here's the thing Big Man even though it's my title on the line, I have nothing to lose. Nobodies expecting Shawn Michaels to walk out still United States champion, but that's where they're wrong. Any other guy, sure. But I'm not just any other guy. I'm Shawn Michaels, I do things absolutely no other man can do. Sure, I'm not as big as you, I'm not as strong as you, and I won't be as fresh as you. But that doesn't matter, there's no pressure on me. It's all on you, and incase you don't quite remember the last time all eyes were on Kevin Steen, I left with the United States championship, and next week will be the exact same thing. And after we both sign this contract Kev, you better make sure you're ready because you've got no excuses, no way to justify as Kevin Steen once again goes down to the Heartbreak Kid.
*As Shawn finishes speaking he puts his microphone down on the table and takes the clip board from Vickie's hands, takes out the pen and signs it, the drops it down on the table infront of the challenger*
Kevin Steen: Oh I will be ready Shawn, I was born ready, I am going into this PPV knowing full well that I am going to take back my United States Championship. Shawn you do not deserve that title, you should be at home watching from the sidelines trying to pleasure your wife instead of her having to go elsewhere. You say that I am you want me ready, you want me to be cocky, you want me to be at my best so I don’t have some excuses. Also do you really think that pressure bothers me? I eat pressure for breakfast like most things and I will be crapping it out come X-treme Xmas, when that ref counts 1,2,3. So Mr Showstopper, Mr fuck of crap, I hope you don’t use that little session you going to have with your best bud if I take that title away from you. Triple H may knock you ass about during your match, he may shove that big nose up your ass before giving you some of his pedigree, but this is going to be nothing compared to what I am going to bring the table.
Kevin Steen: I am going to sign this contract, then I will be ready to make this the Nightmare before Christmas, or should I say The Nightmare after Christmas. Shawn I am the REAL Anti-Christ of Professional wrestling not some drugged up piece of shit who happens to pretend he is at this very company. Shawn I hope you’re ready to join the rest of the fucktards when I put you out of a job next week. **Steen picks up the contract, looks at it for a few moments before he grabs the pen and signs on the dotted line.**
Kevin Steen: Oh and before we end this unoriginal concept in pro wrestling, I got two words for you as you had for many over the years especially them fucktard girls and them two words are SU- Nah actually how about FUCK OFF!!!
**Steen hits Shawn Michaels with the clipboard causing Michaels to jolt back. Steen runs at Shawn and takes him down with a hard clothesline. Steen rolls out the ring and is looking under the ring for something. After a few seconds of rummaging under the ring, Steen pulls a ladder out and goes to slide it in the ring. As Steen gets half of the ladder in the ring, HBK is up and he stamps on the other end causing Steen’s end to hit him in the face. Steen falls back onto the announce table. Shawn Michaels points over to the turnbuckle as he climbs it. HBK points to Steen who is laid across the announce table whilst holding his face which has been busted open. HBK then…….
JUMPS LOOKING FOR A HUGE ELBOW DROP!!!!! OMG NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! STEEN MOVED, STEEN MOVED!!!
Steen moved in the nick of time as HBK goes crashing through the announce table, Shawn is lay motionless in the carnage as Steen is seen laughing as he points to his head. Steen then sees the United States title inside the ring on the table, where Vickie Guerrero is standing in shock of what has just happened. Steen pushes the table over and picks up the ladder. Steen then grabs the ladder and sets it up in the middle of the ring. Steen then grabs hold of the United States title and starts to climb the ladder and when he reaches the top he raises the United States Championship above his head. Before we go to commercials Steen then turns on top of the ladder to face Shawn Michaels who is just about coming around and is sitting up looking on at Steen, With this Steen chops his crotch as mouths the words “SUCK IT”. We fade to commercials.**
Vickie's bit at the start was great of doing it's job, hyping up the match. I love how HBK shows how he's not afraid of 3 or 4 matches in one night because he's the Showstoppah' Steen ripping up the fans banner is classic heelish actions. I couldn't stop laughing at the undercooked turkey known as Kevin Steen line. Shawn talking about how he has nothing to lose and he's ready seems realistic, you both play your characters top notch so your promos mesh well together. Glad to see a brawl start because it wouldn't be a contract signing without one, cool to see a ladder in use to give some anticipation for the match. I like the idea of Steen climbing the ladder and raising the title in the air, great promo.

*As Redemption returns from a break the camera’s showing a clip of XWL '12 as Kelly Kelly vs. Natalya with Kelly in control, however the player clearly doesn't know what they're doing*
???: Yeah! Take that. Pow, pow, pow! Do you like that Nattie? How about this? Yeah, pow, yeah.
*As the camera slowly zooms out, it reveals Kelly Kelly holding an Xbox 360 controller cluelessly hitting buttons as the in-game character moves robotically*
Kelly Kelly: And how about this?
*Kelly presses the Y button, as her in-game character performs her finishing move the Kelly Killer, then presses B as her character goes for the pin 1, 2, 3*
Kelly Kelly: Yeah, how about that?
*As Kelly smiles her theme begins to play through the television, the voice of Justin Roberts in the videogames can be heard saying "And the winner of this match Kelly Kelly!"*
Kelly Kelly:That's for two weeks ago, and that's exactly what will happen next time we step into the ring.
*As Kelly's talking trash, Natalya walks in and stands behind Kelly, and clears her throat, as Kelly turns around and looks at her face to face*
Natalya: Would you look at this, Kelly Kelly is playing XWL's newest video game, XWL '12, for the Xbox 360 and from the looks of it, Kelly Kelly beat me in a match. Is this what you've come to Kelly? You can't beat me in real life so you think beating me on a game is going to solve all your problems, Kelly? Sorry, but they aren't because I am still here, week after week, reminding you who got pinned two weeks ago. My victory two weeks ago proved your victory at November to Remember was a fluke and that I, Natalya, am still the best Diva in the XWL Locker Room.
Kelly Kelly: So my victory was a fluke? The same kind of fluke as the referee not spotting your feet on the ropes two weeks ago, right? I guess that's not cheating according to you, just like your feet not being near the ropes when I pinned you at November to Remember.
*As Natalya goes respond to Kelly, Kelly quickly cuts her off before she can talk*
Kelly Kelly: You know what? Why don't you just save it, I've had enough of listening to you talk. I've had enough you costing me my matches, I've just had enough of you full stop. In case you don't remember Natalya when it comes down you Kelly Kelly vs. you, I'm still two to one. And you call yourself the best diva in the lockeroom? You're not even the best in this room. And you know what, I'll prove it to you next week at X-Treme X-Mas, me versus you, Extreme Rules, what do you say?
Natalya: Me against you? Again? Sure why not? It's not as if I have anything planned is it. I might as well beat some respect into you.
Kelly Kelly: I'll see you there. Oh and you should take this, you'll need the practice.
*Kelly hands Natalya the Xbox 360 controller and leaves the room, and Natalya turns around staring at her as she leaves*

It's rushed but here's the match lol
{Road Dogg} OH YOU DIDN'T KNOW?! YOUR ASS BETTER CAAAAAAALLLLL SOMEBODYYYYYY!!!! It's that time of night! The dogs are comin' out to play y'all! It's show time here on Redemption, and yours truly is the main attraction!
The crowd pops as "Road Dogg" Jesse James heads to the ring to make his XWL debut, he's all smiles and is ready to compete....
Just as the fans were hyped up for the return of Road Dogg the music of R-Truth hits and immediately frenzies the crowd into boo's. He berates the audience on his way to the ring, until finally reaching it and meets eyes with Road Dogg...
{Styles} Well it's about to start Cole! These to men have a lot of history and how ironic is it that this is Jesse James' first match back here in XWL?
{Cole} COME ON R-TRUTH! SHUT HIM UP!
{Styles} Why do I even bother anymore?
Normal Match
BG James Vs R-Truth
R-Truth extends a hand to Road Dogg to shake hands before the match and Road Dogg begins to oblige but being 2 moves ahead of R-Truth he delivers a quick kick to the gut followed by a swift fist to the skull. R-Truth continues to get up only to get knocked down by a left or right hand, finally in a blind rage Truth leaps to his feet and swings! But Road Dogg backs away and as Truth spins catches him with a picture perfect back suplex! Truth rolls out of the ring and begins re-evaluating the match situation, while "Road Dogg" Jesse James begins pandering to the fans with a little dance! This distracts Road Dogg enough that Truth slides in the ring and delivers a big clothesline of him out of nowhere! 1...2... Road Dogg kicks out of the surprise tactic of Truth but is met with a flurry of stomps from his opponent. Truth, after several seconds, stops the stomps only to drop to a knee and deliver several closed fist right to the skull of Road Dogg. Jesse James begins to recover from the beat down but as he rises to one knee R-Truth bounces off the ropes and connects with an Axe Kick!
1 . . . .
2 . . . .
Road Dogg again kicks out! He begins to use the ropes to lift himself up as Truth is arguing with the referee. He runs over and rolls up Truth in a school boy!
1 . . .
2 . .
But Truth slips out and leaps up looking for the kill but is met with a clothesline from Dogg! And another! Road Dogg again panders to the crowd but this time delivers 1...2...3 lefts hands to the jaw of Truth and then begins dancing once again followed by a big right hand! The Shake, Rattle, and Roll! Truth falls to the mat, and Road Dogg runs to the ropes and begins shuffling and doing more theatrics towards the fallen Truth and drops a signature knee drop, the move stirs Truth who gets to his feet...Road Dogg is going for the Pumphandle Drop! He lifts R-Truth but he flips over the shoulders of Road Dogg! He spins him around and is going for Truth or Consequences! But as he lifts Road Dogg up the counter he just used, is used on him! And Road Dogg goes for the Pumphandle Drop again! This time it connects! And he covers!
1 . . . . .
2 . . . . .
The crowd erupts as Road Dogg gets the victory and defeats R-Truth who has rolled out of the ring and heading up the ramp. The crowd continues cheering as Road Dogg asks for the mic he brought to ringside...
{Road Dogg} Your winner and the future Heavyweight Champion of the Worllllllllld! "Road Dogg" Jesse James!
Road Dogg tosses the mic to the bell keeper and climbs the turnbuckle to celebrate as the camera pans to the announcer's booth....
{Cole} I can't believe this! Truth should've won this match! Road Dogg doesn't deserve the win!
{Styles} Should've, would've, could've Cole! Road Dogg just won his debut match and is not being shy as to what his intentions are, but it's not like he's a shy individual anyway!
{Cole} Whatever, let's go to break!

*Following a promotional video for Long Island Iced Z Zack Ryder, Redemption continues with the sound of Wade Barrett's theme echoing around the arena.*
*The crowd boos as the ring bell sounds.*
[Justin Roberts] The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall! Making his way to the ring from Manchester, England... weighing in at 246 lb, he is the XWL Intercontinental Champion.... WADE BARRETT!
*Barrett enters the ring and stands in the middle of it with a mic in hand, and his Intercontinental Championship worn proudly around his waist. As his music dies down, the crowd's boos intensify before the Brit raises his mic upwards and begins to speak...*
[Wade Barrett] Last week, I was the victim of yet another travesty. It seems whenever I have an ongoing conflict with someone, I always end up on the receiving end of a singular loss. Whether it be Ted Dibiase, Randy Orton or now Justin Gabriel... every one of those men has managed to pull off a fluke win over me at some point in the past against the flow of play. I always dominate my foes yet somehow a lucky break always entitles them to one win over me, and Justin Gabriel managed to pull that off last week in our triple threat match which also involved CM Punk. Now I'm not going to stand here and whine and complain about that match, because I know that when all is said and done, I will be standing tall over Gabriel and he will want absolutely nothing to do with Wade Barrett when I come out on top in this rivalry, just as I have done against any other man who has stood against me. Unfortunately for Gabriel he has had his one lucky break and when the time comes for us to face off one-on-one I will make sure that he comes out of the match in more pain than he has ever been in his lifetime.
[Wade Barrett] But there are more pressing matters to attend to, namely the World Heavyweight Championship. A lot of people are doubting me heading into the match and many have named me as the underdog as I will have to compete and defend my Intercontinental Championship before facing three other men for the World title. And not only that, it will be a grueling and painful match as it will be contested under Tables, Ladders and Chairs rules. People are saying that I'm at a disadvantage and have no chance in hell of walking out of X-Treme Xmas of World Champion, but I have to disagree. I will be facing Tyson Kidd for my Intercontinental Championship first, which will be nothing more than a warm up. Kidd is about as much of a threat to me and my title as the clearly obese guy sat in the front row. I don't care if he was trained in the legendary Hart Dungeon... Kidd isn't relevant to me and he is certainly not worthy of holding the prestigious Intercontinental title. If anything, facing Kidd first puts me at an advantage heading into the World title match as I'll already be warmed up and primed to give 100% when I look to claim the ultimate prize this industry has to offer.
[Wade Barrett] I told each and every one of you way back in January that the winds of change were blowing and that the day would come when I would stand here in this very ring as World Heavyweight Champion. Next week, that becomes a reality. The final step for the Era Of Wade Barrett to be ushered in comes into full effect when I walk out of X-treme Xmas as the new World Heavywei-
*Wade Barrett is cut off by the theme of Justin Gabriel. Gabriel walks from out from behind the curtain to a huge pop.*
[Justin Roberts] Ladies and gentlmen, please welcome Wade Barrett's tag team partner, from Cape Town, South Africa... weighing in at 213 lb... JUSTIN GABRIEL!!!
*Gabriel makes his way down to the ring and snatches the Microphone from Wades grasp*
*Gabriel then begins to speak*
[Justin Gabriel] You call that a lucky win? I fought through everything to come out with that win. You want to make excuses because you couldn't provide? Then you'll never be a real champion. There isn't going to be any excuses this Sunday, when you fail to become World Champion. Your arrogance can only get you so far, very soon you will become so over confident that your entire world will come crashing down. You aren't as good as you think you are, Wade. I proved that last week, when I pinned you in the middle of this ring. I will prove it again this Sunday, I'm going to do everything I can to stop you walking out of X-Treme X-Mas.... The World Champion.
*Barrett snatches the mic back.*
[Wade Barrett] You honestly think that I'm arrogant? I'm only stating the facts and if you look at what I have accomplished over the past year you'll see that I'm not arrogant, I just simply am the best there is in this company today. It's only fitting that I have the World title around my waist to show that. I'll be walking out of X-treme Xmas as a double champion no matter what you say or do, and you'll be walking out as a failure once again. You're someone who never lives up to the hype, and like I've said on more than one occasion, you're all flash and no substance. Sure, you're entertaining enough in the ring, but you never back up your words and you're nothing more than a card filler and a stepping stone for people like me to step on as we go on to achieve great things. We may be tag partners tonight but don't think for one second that you'll be the one claiming the victory. The only way we have any chance of winning tonight is if I carry the team, just like how I carried The Corre.
*Again the mic changes hands as Gabriel grabs it back.*
[Justin Gabriel] I never back up my words? I said last week that I'd show you exactly what I can do... and That's exactly what I did. You can take me lightly all you want, But It'll come back to haunt you. I proved you wrong last week, and I will at X-Treme X-mas. And as Far as our Tag match goes.. if you try to "carry " us to victory.. then there will only be one outcome. You flat out on your back from a GTS. Then you'll have to wonder... Will I help you? Or will I leave you to be pinned in the middle of this ring for the second week running?
*Both Gabriel and Barrett stare daggers at the other before...*
[Justin Roberts] And their opponents, first from Chicago, Illinois... weighing in at 218 lb... he is the World Heavyweight Champion... CM PUNK!!!!
*Punk makes his way to the ring welcomed by a huge ovation from the live audience. Both Gabriel and Wade turn their attention and their gazes to the current World champion as he makes his entrance.*
*Punk mounts the turnbuckle, raises his title for the fans providing them with a great photo op before looking at the former Corre members and smirking.*
*Punk eventually dismounts the turnbuckle and under the watchful gazes of Gabriel and Barrett he removes his shirt and begins twisting his wrists while awaiting his flamboyant and colourful partner...*

Good job doing a promo but it should go under the "X-Treme X-Mas" section because this show ended and the PPV started so i'd just recommend just re-posting it in the PPV Section.

Hawkins leaving the group and dissing Ryan and Riley makes me want to see a match between Ryan and Hawkins to settle things on it. Hawkins changing things so it's all about himself works for the character and at least he has a goal now as a singles competitor. The promo was good, hopefully you can find a feud or something for Hawkins soon.
so i'd just recommend just re-posting it in the PPV Section.
