We all saw what happened last week, when President Brian Frenck's bodyguard who was the special guest referee for the World Title match had the very fast three count to give Equalizer the SWF World Title. Needless to say, Brian Frenck is less than happy, as is Rock 'n Roll Animal. JV: Meanwhile Equalizer and the rest of Trinity is loving every minute of it. But Equalizer is not going to get any respect as champion until he defeats someone fair and square. VM: And tonight we're going to see the Original Gangsta in action as he makes his bid for a title shot. Also, we'll see the Thugz vs. the Living Dead as they fight for the right... JV: TO PARTY!!!

VM: It looks like Rock 'n Roll Animal! [It is the Animal, looking a little dirtier and more unshaven than usual. Sandman, hearing the commotion in the crowd, starts to turn around, just as the Animal smashes his 12-string guitar into the side of Sandman's head!] JV: He's playing the hits on Sandman! [Animal continues to smash Sandman with the guitar, three, four, five times in rapid succession.

[Animal quickly hoists the heavier Sandman to his feet, then, pushing him from behind, rams him headfirst into the outside the steel cage.] VM: This is outrageous!

[The crowd begins to boo as Hot Shot pushes his way out from behind the curtain.

He then hops down and calls for the mic as his music starts to fade out.] Hot Shot: Some silly announcer thinks that I've turned my back on my fans, but he can kiss my ass because the fans still love me! [crowd boos and Hot Shot climbs to the second turnbuckle again] Live with it boys, Hot Shot is a part of Trinity. Now, onto the business at hand... Fatal Fury. [laughs and looks around at the crowd as he climbs down from the turnbuckle] Who out there wants to see a beating? [holds the mic out as the whole crowd yells] That's what I thought. Fatal Fury, all that you have accomplished really doesn't mean much to me at the moment. Yes, sixty minutes in a match is all great, but you don't have any gold around your waist to prove how good you are. That's what you are looking for from me... my gold. [adjusts his belt and looks around at the crowd as he waits for them to calm down] Okay, Mr. Fatal Fury wanted a non- title to see if he can get a shot at Ides of March is what you want, right? You got it... but you're going to have to wait a little while. Giant Killer thinks I'm afraid of him and I really have to pound him into the mat before I can get to our match Fury... He's really ticking me off and I know... [climbs up onto the bottom rope] ...that all of you fans out there really want to see a rookie being put in his place, am I right? [holds the mic out as the crowd becomes deafening] That's right. So Fury, you told me not to answer right away and I didn't... We'll get it on soon and we'll see if you get the American Title match at Ides of March. Frenck, get that booked will you... and get GK into the ring with me before that so that I can really show him who should be scared...
