Shotgun Saturday Night
Episode # 02
January 15th, 2022 - Mirage Night Club - New York City
The show comes on the air with an overhead shot of the ring in the Club. The crowd is standing right up against the ring and it is a packed house for the second episode of Shotgun Saturday Night. We go to our commentators - Renee Young and Michael Cole. They say that tonight we are going to see the crowning of the first WWE Extreme champion.
We then hear some familiar music. The shot goes to somewhere in the packed Club and we see “The Franchise” Shane Douglas walk out with a steel chair in hand. He pushes through the crowd and climbs up on the apron and gets into the ring. He grabs the microphone from the ring announcer and stands in the middle of the ring.
He says that he’s going to qualify for The Royal Rumble. He says he’s going to be crowned the first champion and there is nothing anyone in World Wrestling Entertainment can do about it. He says he has this steel chair with him as his insurance policy. He says that anyone who gets in his way of him getting what he wants will feel this steel chair against his skull.
He says that he is in tonight’s Gauntlet to crown an Extreme champion. He says there are some tough competitors in this bout including “The Whole F’n Show” Rob Van Dam. The fans cheer when Shane Douglas says the name Rob Van Dam. Soon the shot goes onto Rob Van Dam who pushes through the crowd and climbs into the ring. He takes the microphone away from Shane Douglas and starts to talk.
Rob Van Dam says that Shane Douglas better be ready because tonight he is going to walk out champion. Shane Douglas swings the chair at Van Dam. Rob Van Dam ducks and then kicks Shane Douglas and makes him drop the chair on the ring canvas. He then grabs Shane Douglas and tosses him out of the ring. He gets the microphone again and says you’re looking at best wrestler here on Shotgun Saturday Night! He then tosses the microphone down and poses to the crowd.
The shot then goes onto our commentators - Renee Young and Michael Cole. Young says that things are heating up here on Shotgun Saturday Night. She says that tonight we will see the crowning another championship. Michael Cole pipes in saying that tonight we will crown the first WWE Cruiserweight champion. He says there will be two matches and the winners of those bouts will wrestle for the Cruiserweight championship! He then says our first match in the Cruiserweight championship tournament starts right now.
Match # 01 -
Super Crazy beat Eli Everfly with a Moonsault at 7:24 to advance to the finals of the WWE Cruiserweight championship tournament. <Snake Eyes>After the match Super Crazy went to shake Eli Everfly’s hand. Eli spits green mist in his eyes and then exits the ring to a chorus of boos. He flips off the crowd and makes his way through the huge crowd of people in the Club.
Before the ring announcer can announce the next match we hear some familiar music. The crowd boos as we see the WWE Intercontinental champion Billy Gunn come out with his championship belt around his waist. Following behind him is “The Queen of Extreme” Francine wearing a revealing blue dress. Billy Gunn jumps on the apron and gets in the ring. He then pulls up Francine and helps her into the squared circle. He grabs the microphone away from the ring announcer and then begins to speak.
He says that he going to be WWE Intercontinental champion for a long time. He says every male wrestler on the roster is jealous of him and they want to take his championship. He says that they are going to have to pry it away from him in his cold dead hands because there is no way that he is going to lose the strap.
He then talks about Val Venis. He says that he has been a pain in his side for a while now and that at The Royal Rumble he will have his chance at taking his strap. He says he can try all he wants and he can bring his “A” game but when it is all said and done and the smoke has cleared he will still be the reigning WWE Intercontinental champion.
Suddenly we see Val Venis charge the ring. The two trade punches as Francine scurries out of the ring. The two fight in the sea of people as security tries to keep the fans away from them. They then exit the front door of the Club and fight on the street. Val Venis whips the champion into a bus shelter, shattering the glass. We then see officials come in and break up the brawl as the show then goes to a commercial break.
