The Pryamid
Memphis, TN
Disclaimer: It's nothing but fantasy folks. And it is that damn good! It's true!
We open up the new edition of NWA W.A.R. with announcers Rich Landrum & Mike Sanders at ringside. They plug the main event for tonight - an 18 man battle royal to determine the new # 1 contender for the NWA World Championship, currently held by Sting. Time to move to the ring where Ted DiBiase is waiting with an edition of "The Money Pit"...
Ted introduces his guests for the night - The Horsemen. Arn Anderson, Mark Copani, Sean O'Haire, Charlie Haas, Miss Jackie & Woman come to the ring. Arn talks about the Horseman agenda - to dominate and control the NWA - by winning att the titles. Tonight is the Horsemen's night. Copani will be representing the Horsemen in the Battle Royal and Arn expects him to win and then go on to defeat Sting for the NWA title in the future. Copani talks for a bit and says it will be his pleasure. Tonight, Miss Jackie goes after the Women's title and Lisa "Ivory" Moretti. Jackie talks about how the student has surpassed the teacher and tonight, it's going to be another trophy for the Horsemen. Haas & O'Haire are going after Kronik and the tag titles tonight as well and will be wrestling Kronik. Woman assures Haas & O'Haire that they are the best and will win. Tonight is the night of the Horsemen and the night the elite take over - just like it's supposed to be.

NWA WOMEN'S CHAMPIONSHIP
LISA "IVORY" MORETTI (c) versus MISS JACKIE (with Woman, Charlie Haas)
A quick match to start. Jackie takes the early advantage, capitalizing on a distraction by Haas to catch Lisa with a knee to the gut. Moretti fights back with forearms and a big kick to the head. Haas is up and Ivory nails him with a slap. Gayda rolls up Lisa but only gets two as Moretti powers out. Woman & Hass interfere repeatedly and the ref finally gets frustrated and tells them to leave ringside and go the back. Gayda is distracted by the loss of her "advisors" and gets caught by Moretti and a big bulldog to take home the win.
Winner and still champion: LISA "IVORY" MORETTI
We cut to the back and see Jimmy Hart complaining to NWA Commissioner Harley Race in his office. Why are Knobbs and Beefcake not part of the Battle Royal later tonight? Harley says that Knobbs & Beefcake don't deserve to be in the Battle Royal.... because they suck! Hart is argumentive and complains again. Jim Cornette is here and he's got a bone to pick with Harley as well since Harley made him wrestle Blackjack Mulligan last week on DZW. Both managers are going a million miles a second with their mouths and Harley is getting irritated. Finally he tells both men to shut up and if they want matches for their teams, they can wrestle each other - it's Knobbs & Beefcake versus The Midnight Express later tonight. Race kicks both managers out of his office before they can react.
(commerical)
We see Miss Jackie in the back with Woman & Haas. She's upset about the loss to Moretti. Arn steps in and tells her not to worry about it. He'll talk to Race and make sure she gets a rematch. Just stay focused and remember the agenda for the night. Her match was a minor setback, but it's the Horsemen's night. Jackie agrees.
We go to Missy Hyatt who is standing by with Sean Waltman and Madusa. We see some clips of the recent issues with Waltman, Madusa & Joanie "Chyna" Laurer. Missy asks Madusa and Waltman why they're torturing Laurer like they are. Waltman does a quick rant about how Laurer used him to build her career and is a psycho. Madusa starts to talk, but they shut up as the camera zooms to NWA World Champion Sting, who is standing by and shaking his head. Waltman asks Sting if he has a problem. Sting tells them that they are two sick people to enjoy making someone hurt like they've been doing to Laurer. Waltman gets in Sting's face and tells him that maybe he should do something about it. Sting says that maybe he will. They go nose to nose for a second and then Madusa leads Waltman away as Sting stands and watches.

We see a brief video clip of Doug Gilbert and Tommy Rich. Rich talks about how he's going to beat Arn Anderson and become the new North American Champion. Gilbert talks about the Battle Royal and says he's planning to win it all and Sting's days are numbered.
We return to live action and Landrum informs us that a rematch between Miss Jackie and Lisa Moretti has been signed for next weeks edition of NWA W.A.R. Also, for tonight, Sting will be defending the NWA World Championship against Sean "X-Pac" Waltman.
We go to the audience and see a clip of former WWE star Jay "Christian Cage" Reso sitting at ringside. He waves to the crowd and mugs for the camera. Mike Sanders makes his way over with a mic and asks Cage what he's doing here at W.A.R. Cage responds that he's just visiting friends and wanting to watch things and see some great wrestling action. Sanders asks if Christian will be joining the ranks of the NWA? Cage says that's he's meeting with Harley Race later tonight to discuss a few things, but nothing is definite yet. But he likes what he's seen so far and he thinks the "Peeps" in the NWA could make for some wild times. We then cut back to the ring announcer and the next match.
Cue David Penzer....
NWA NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPIONSHIP
ARN ANDERSON (c) (with Woman) versus "WILDFIRE" TOMMY RICH (with Doug Gilbert)
Both men start off slowly with wrestling, but a cheap shot by Rich quickly degenerates the match into a wild brawl. Fists and kicks by both men and Rich scores with a hot-shot to get two. Woman gets on the apron to break the count. Gilbert confronts her and gets a slap to the kisser as a result. Rich is distracted by the commotion and gets caught by an Anderson DDT. Arn covers, but only gets two as Gilbert puts Rich's foot on the ropes. More brawling and Rich catches Arn with a Thesz Press to get another two. Rich keeps the advantage until Woman grabs his foot from the outside. Arn scores with a big spinebuster out of nowhere and grabs the tights to score the pin.
Winner: ARN ANDERSON (w/ Woman)
We see a brief video clip of Lenny and Lodi - the West Hollywood Blondes as they talk about the Battle Royal and what they'll be able to do as the World Champion. Disco Inferno butts in and says that he's winning the contest and becoming the greatest disco dancing world champion ever. Lots of playful verbal sparring and comments by the three men.

Michael P.S. Hayes is in the back and talking with the NWA World Tag Team Champions, Brian Adams & Bryan Clark - Kronik!..They put over their opponents for tonight, O'Haire and Haas as good wrestlers with a lot of talent and abilities. They're stars of tomorrow - but tonight, they learn the facts of life. It's all about Kronik! 'Nuff said!
Cue David Penzer...
BOBBY EATON & STAN LANE - THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS (with Jim Cornette)
versus
BRIAN KNOBBS & BRUTUS BEEFCAKE (with Jimmy Hart)
Controlled chaos is the best way to describe this match. Lane & Eaton try to use their speed and wrestling advantages to speed things up and go for several quick wins. Knobbs & Beefcake use the fists and kicks and want to make it more of a fight than a wrestling match. Beefcake manages to get Lane in the sleeper hold. Eaton nails Beefcake to break it up and ends up being taken to the floot by Knobbs. Jimmy Hart is in and tries to use his megaphone to nail Lane again, but Jim Cornette nails Hart with the tennis racket to take him down. Lane catches Beefcake with a superkick to score the quick win.
Winners: THE MIDNIGHT EXPRESS (with Jim Cornette)
We see a video clip of the Mulligan family together - Blackjack Mulligan, Barry Windham, Kendall Windham & Mike Rotundo. They make some comments about the main event Battle Royal and how they're all family, but in the ring, it's every man for himself.

A clip airs of Ron Simmons and Butch Reed - DOOM talking about the Battle Royal. Ron wants to be World Champion again and this could be his last chance. Reed talks about how Simmons has already tasted the gold - now it's time for "The Natural" to make that walk and get the gold.
VADER comes to the ring. He's wide open and very pissed off. He was cheated by Sting in their last couple of matches and he wants his NWA World Title match. To hell with the Battle Royal. He wants to be the champion now! And Vader demands that Harley Race come out and do something about it. Sirens blare and here comes "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner. Vader has nothing to be mad about. Sting beat his ass! Get over it! Steiner is mad that he's not even in the Battle Royal tonight. The NWA is scared to have Steiner as the World Champion. Vader takes exception to Steiner's comments and the two men exchange words before it erupts into a total slugfest. Referees and agents quickly fill the ring to try and break the brawl up as Vader and Steiner try to tear each other apart.
We cut to a video clip of Jimmy Valiant - the Boogie Woogie Man - and he talks about the Battle Royal tonight and that the Boogie Man is ready to party and rock hard to get a chance at Sting and the World title.

Video clip of Robert Gibson as he says that he will be winning the battle royal for the # 1 contendership spot tonight -and that everyone who thinks he's just a tag team wrestler had better watch out.
Landrum informs us that both Scott Steiner and Vader have been escorted from the building by order of NWA Commissioner Harley Race. That leaves a vacancy in the battle royal. Landrum specualtes who will fill the spot. Sanders offers himself as a choice.
Cue David Penzer...
NWA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
BRIAN ADAMS & BRYAN CLARK - KRONIK (c)
versus
SEAN O'HAIRE & CHARLIE HAAS (with Miss Jackie & Woman)
The match starts off with both members of Kronik just walking all over the smaller Haas, dominating him with power move after power move. Haas manages to escape and tag O'Haire who proves to match up very well against the Kronik team. It continues back and forth as we see several two counts by both teams. Miss Jackie attempts to interfere and distract Adams, but he nails Haas with a boot and goes to the floor to confront the blonde bombshell. She slaps Adams, and he gives her a big kiss in return. O'Haire tries to nail Adams from behind, but Clark cuts him off and sends O'Haire flying into the ringside fan barrier. More brawling ensures and all four men end up in the ring. Woman and Jackie pull the referee to the floor for a major distraction. From out of nowhere, Arn Anderson hits the ring and nails Adams with a loaded left hand. O'Haire covers and the ref moves in and makes the count.
Winners and NEW CHAMPIONS: SEAN O'HAIRE & CHARLIE HAAS - THE HORSEMEN
The Horsemen celebrate their new gold and continue to beat on the fallen members of Kronik. From through the crowd come Scott Hall & Kevin Nash - THE OUTSIDERS. Hall & Nash team up with Kronik to clear the ring of the Horsemen and send them fleeing to the back.
Another brief clip airs of former WWF Intercontinental Champion The Honky Tonk Man, as he talks about how he's the greatest IC Champion of all time and after he wins the Battle Royal, will go on to become the greatest NWA Champion of all time!

Sting makes it back into the ring and finally has had enough, unleashing a series of hard chops on Waltman. Kicks and a whip to the comer. Big Stinger splash and Sting locks in the Scorpion Leglock. Waltman tries to escape, but Sting sinches down and Waltman is finally forced to tap.

We see Arn Anderson and the Horsemen giving Mark Copani a pep talk. They kept the North American title and won the tag titles tonight. Now, Copani's job is to win the Battle Royal. Copani assures Arn and the Horsemen that he'll win.
We go to Missy Hyatt who is standing by with NWA Commissioner Harley Race. Since Vader has been removed from the building, who will be taking his place, if anyone, in the Battle Royal tonight. Race just smiles and says that he's found a very sutiable replacement. Christian Cage steps into the picture, smiling. He shakes Race's hand and assures all the "peeps" that they can be proud because Captian Charisma is back and going straight to the top! Because that's how he rolls!
We go back to the ring and David Penzer who explains the rules (over the top rope elimination with both feet touching the floor) and introduces the participants for the 18 Man Battle Royal. The winner of the Battle Royal gets to be the new # 1 Contender for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.
