INT. PROMO SET – NIGHT

Terri is standing by with William Regal and Molly Holly.

Terri: William, Molly, last week on Raw you were challenged to a mixed tag match at King of the Ring by none other than your rival Croooooow and this mystery girl the PPV Squad has been calling Shadow. Do you accept their challenge?

Regal: First of all, you refer to this fine young lady as Ms. Holly, do you understand? As for that airy-fairy Croooooow and his bit of skirt, we accept their challenge, but I warn you, Croooooow, that you have not yet seen a fraction of the pain I can unleash upon you, you disgusting toerag. And as for Miss Shadow, well, I’ll just let my dear lady friend deal with you.

Molly: What I want to know is how the hell do you jump in the ring and suddenly expect to work here? Shadow, you should be behind bars right now for breaking and entering, not tagging with that… Croooooow… and his enormous… oh no, not again!

She covers her face with her hands.

Regal: It’s all right, dear, don’t think those kind of thoughts. Go to your happy place.

Molly: (breathing heavy) Anyway, I’d be perfectly content to kick your… butt… myself, Croooooow, but William has volunteered to defend my besmirched honor and take you out. But Shadow… whatever William does to Croooooow, you will get ten times over. At King of the Ring, I’m going to treat you like the ring trash that you are!

They leave the set.

INT. MATCH – NIGHT

MATCH: Croooooow and the Pyro Twins vs. William Regal, Justin Credible and Shawn Stasiak

Shawn Stasiak’s theme hits and he makes his way to the ring.

JR: Planet Stasiak has entered the building, and tonight he will be competing in six man tag team action.

King: Hopefully those voices in his head tell him something useful this week.

Justin Credible’s theme hits and he makes his way to the ring.

JR: Justin Credible has been having his problems recently on Heat with the Pyro Twins. Last night he lost to Jay Rowe after Dusty distracted him for a moment.

King: Yeah, those Pyro Twins share one brain anyway, so why don’t they pick on someone who has a tag team partner?

William Regal’s theme hits and he makes his way to the ring.

JR: The European Champion will captain this team, but it looks like he’s coming out here sans Molly.

King: It’s a six man. Anything could happen. Molly could get hurt.

The PPV Squad theme hits and Croooooow and the Pyro Twins make their way to the ring.

JR: The PPV Squad is in the arena, and representing tonight will be Croooooow and the Pyro Twins, Dusty Schneble and Jay Rowe!

King: This isn’t fair. The PPV Squad is a singular unit. Regal’s team should have an extra partner.

FINISH: Croooooow and Stasiak get the hot tag, and Croooooow beats down Stasiak with some right hands and a dropkick. He covers, but Regal makes the save. Croooooow forearms Regal, who falls to the outside, and Stasiak takes control with a thumb to the eye. He misses a right, and Croooooow executes a tiger buster. He covers, but Justin Credible makes the save. The Pyro Twins enter and all six men brawl. Finally, Stasiak gets whipped into the ropes and the Pyro Twins lift him for a double flapjack, but Croooooow catches him on the way down with a DDT. He covers and gets the three count.

Winners: Croooooow and the Pyro Twins at 4:30

JR: The PPV Squad gets the duke, and it looks like Croooooow’s going for some momentum heading into King of the Ring in two weeks’ time.

As the Squad celebrates, Credible spins Dusty around and fells him with a superkick. Jay sends Credible down with a right hand, but Regal comes in with the brass knuckles and drops Jay with a shot to the head. Croooooow tries a right hand, but Regal drops him with the knuckles as well. Shadow comes out and runs down the ramp, but Molly attacks her from behind with a trash masher. Shadow goes down, and Molly rams the wide bottom of the masher into her ribs.

JR: Shadow came out to try and help her newfound PPV Squad friends, but Molly attacked her from behind with a trash masher and laid her out.

King: Serves her right, thinking she can just make friends with the PPV Squad and suddenly be a wrestler.

After one last hit, William Regal’s theme plays and he and Molly jump down off the ramp and walk back toward the dressing room. Nykk appears at the top of the ramp and looks at Shadow with a disapproving gaze. He shakes his head slowly.

JR: What is Nykk doing out here?

King: It looks like he’s evaluating Shadow. And he doesn’t look too pleased.

JR: She better step it up, because if Nykk is not impressed after King of the Ring, she’ll be voted out of the PPV Squad.

Nykk leaves, as in the ring the Pyro Twins start to wake up. Shawn Stasiak comes back in and smacks Dusty in the back of the head. The Pyro Twins turn and stare at Stasiak.

JR: What a stupid thing to do!

King: Here we go again!

Stasiak runs and the Pyro Twins chase him to the backstage area.

INT. BACKSTAGE – NIGHT

Shawn Stasiak is running when he encounters Huh, who is dressed as a mime and blocking his escape route.

Stasiak: Aah! It’s you!

Huh the mime pulls down imaginary steel shutters and Stasiak desperately tries to escape his invisible prison by putting his hands on the “walls.” All of a sudden, the Pyro Twins attack him from behind and beat him up while moving down the hallway. Stasiak finally breaks out and runs, and the Pyro Twins don’t give chase.

INT. PROMO SET – NIGHT

Jonathan Coachman is standing by with Nykk.

Coach: Well, Nykk, we saw you earlier tonight and you didn’t look too happy with Shadow.

Nykk: What, you think I would just let anyone into the PPV Squad, Coach? She has to show that she can carry her own weight. If she does a good job, then fine, but if not, well, it has to be a unanimous PPV Squad decision and I’m taking this very seriously.

Coach: Another thing you’re taking seriously is your opportunity to win the Intercontinental Title tonight as you face Eddie Guerrero. As you’re stuck in this title triangle with Guerrero and Rob Van Dam, do you feel out of place at all since you’re the only one who doesn’t use a frog splash?

Nykk: What, are you saying I can’t do a frog splash? As a wrestler, I have to adapt to every situation. I’ve gotten so sick of being hit with frog splashes over the last couple of weeks that I decided to develop one of my own. I’ve been working on it all week, and tonight I’ll prove that I can be the best at anything I set out to do by winning the IC Title from Eddie Guerrero with his own move.

He leaves the set.

INT. ARENA – NIGHT

MATCH: Nykk vs. Eddie Guerrero

Nykk’s theme hits and he makes his way to the ring.

JR: Here comes the challenger for the Intercontinental Title.

King: He was really upset last week when he didn’t get that title shot, but he’s got one right here tonight!

Eddie Guerrero’s theme hits and he makes his way to the ring.

JR: Eddie Guerrero, the Intercontinental Champion, has had a good time over the past couple of weeks turning his two main challengers, RVD and Nykk, against one another. It could come back to bite him in the ass tonight if he’s not taking Nykk seriously.

FINISH: Eddie goes for the frog splash but Nykk moves out of the way. Nykk goes up top and does his own version of the frog splash and covers, but RVD slides into the ring. He goes for a corkscrew legdrop, and Nykk moves. RVD nails Eddie with it, and the ref calls for the bell, disqualifying Nykk. Nykk stares at RVD, enraged and confused at the same time.

Winner: Eddie Guerrero at 5:45

JR: Eddie Guerrero is going to win this one by DQ, and I guess this is RVD’s way of paying back Nykk for last week.

King: Nykk did apologize last week. I wonder what’s gotten into RVD?

RVD tells Nykk not to mess with him because he’s Rob… Van… Dam, but Nykk shoves him down to the mat. RVD bounces back up and they slug it out. RVD gets the better of him and Nykk tries to kick him, but Van Dam catches his foot. He goes for his stepover heel kick, but Nykk catches him and takes him down, applying the Bellbrookville Cedarleaf. RVD taps, but Guerrero comes in with the belt and nails Nykk in the back of the head with it. He slumps to the canvas as Guerrero positions them next to each other. He goes up top and hits a frog splash on both men and then celebrates.

JR: Eddie Guerrero should really be proud of himself attacking people from behind.

King: I guess this proves who has the best frog splash in WWE.

JR: What’s this?

As Eddie celebrates, D’lo Brown slides into the ring. As Eddie turns, D’lo hits the Sky High and then goes to the top rope. He hits the Lo Down, and then poses.

King: It’s D’lo Brown! What’s he doing out here?

JR: It looks like we have another candidate for best frog splash.

D’lo grabs a mic.

D’lo: You know, I’ve been listening for the past month about who has the best frog splash in WWE and let me just say… that when it comes to the first and best user of the frog splash in WWE, you betta recognize!

His theme plays as he leaves the ring.

JR: D’lo Brown with some strong words for the three men in the ring.

King: I think D’lo may just have thrown his hat into the title race, JR.

INT. ARENA – NIGHT

Jim Ross and Jerry Lawler are sitting at the announce position.

JR: What a wild night on Raw, and moments ago, D’lo Brown reasserted himself as a contender for the Intercontinental Championship.

King: We got this info straight from Ric Flair, didn’t we?

JR: We sure did, King. The big news is that at King of the Ring in two weeks, there will be a Fatal Four Way for the Intercontinental Championship. Of course, Eddie Guerrero will be defending, and he’ll be going against Nykk, Rob Van Dam and now D’lo Brown. Who really has the best frog splash in WWE?

A graphic is shown to hype the match.

Heat

MATCH: Huh vs. Crash

Huh, dressed as a mime, beats Crash with the Windbreaker and then a moonsault.

In this Hardcore Title match, Cynric loses when Cheesecake interferes and tries to take the Hardcore Title for himself. Richards gives him the Steven Kick and covers him, retaining the Hardcore Title.
