Tommy Rich and Memphis Legends post match interview

[Scott Hudson tells Rich that was an impressive win in the ring!]

Tommy Rich told Hudson that him and the Memphis Legends go way back, and
that what they did in that ring is something they've been doing around the
country for years, and thats beating people up!

Reggie B. Fine says that him and Brickhouse Brown's loss to the Island
Boys last week on Velocity was a fluke, but tonight with Tommy Rich in
their corner, they were re-focused and are ready to take on any competition
that the USWA wants to put in their way!

Brickhouse Brown says that he is the only Powerhouse that the USWA has on the
roster. Not Mike Awesome, not Bobby Duncum Jr, and not Ahmed Johnson! Brickhouse
says that today Ahmed Johnson might be in the main event, but if he wants to
prove that he's the powerhouse of the USWA he needs to step into the ring with
him!

Psicosis pinned Cyclope with the Flying Legdrop in 0:11:21.
Rating: ** 3/4

X-Division action sees Psicosis get the victory today on challenge. Psicosis
told the ringside camera that he will never forgive Latin Lover for turning
his back in their team and he's waiting for the opportunity to step into the
ring with him!

Mikey Whipwreck pinned Alex Shelley after a top-rope Frankensteiner in 0:09:04.
Rating: ** 1/2

Another big X-Division match up with Mikey Whipwreck defeating Alex Shelley.
Mikey has been making his way up the ladder in the division and will soon be
mentioned in the same sentence as the champion Bobby Fish!

The Spanish Announce Team (Joel Maximo and Jose Maximo) defeated
The Southern Posse (Rick Thames and Sonny Trout) when Joel Maximo pinned
Sonny Trout with the Maximo Explosion in 0:04:05.
Rating: -1/2*

The returning S.A.T.'s get a victory tonight over The Southern Posse. We
haven't seen Jose and Joel in quite sometime, but with the competition in the
tag team division constantly changing, these two superstars feel they might
be able to make a run at the tag team titles. A victory today on Challenge is
the first step in that process.

Bill Dundee addresses X-Division Title situation.

[Scott Hudson brings out President Bill Dundee and talks about the X-Division]

Bill Dundee says that the X-Division is heating up as Bobby Fish wins his first
USWA title in the company. We got some big names that have moved to the division
in AJ Styles and CM Punk as of late, and of course former champion Steve Bradley
is looking for a rematch.

On top of that Mikey Whipwreck has made a name for himself in the standings
in the last few weeks, so it's been complicated to get everything straight!

Hudson says that he was told that Steve Corino set up a meeting with Dundee
last week to put together a contract for Bobby Fishes first title defense.

Dundee said that it was a three hour meeting, and in the end we came to a
conclusion which I would like to announce today on Challenge.

Dundee says he had to give up a little to get a little, but he felt that
CM Punk was a stronger contender to the title than AJ Styles at this present
time. Corino would not take that as an acceptable answer, but in the end we
determined that NEXT WEEK's main event here on Challenge will pit

Steve Bradley taking on CM Punk #1 contender label is on the line, now by
removing AJ Styles from the match, we had to give up a little and that
includes Steve Corino will be the special guest referee.

[The crowd boos the decision and Bradley comes out from the back]

Bradley confronts Bill Dundee and asks him how in the hell he came to that
decision?

Dundee tries to defend himself by saying that it was either that or Punk vs
AJ Styles and Bradley wouldn't even have an opportunity at his rematch.

Bradley says that he is being disrespected because he was the first ever
champion, and deserves an automatic rematch, not the opportunity to get
a rematch!

Dundee told Bradley that the deal is already done, and he better get
ready for next week!

Vladimir Kozlov pinned Colt Cabana with the Russian Rack in 0:06:11.
Rating: *** 1/2
(Mike Awesome no-showed.)

After the news that Mike Awesome was going to take on Colt Cabana this week,
we got word that Mike Awesome was not in the building, so while Cabana felt
that a competitor from the X-Division would be in his best interest, Bill
Dundee scheduled him to face Vladimir Kozlov of The New Bolsheviks. The powerful
Kozlov was too much for Cabana and after the match he claimed he was the strongest
man in the USWA! This caught the attention of Brickhouse Brown who earlier in the
program claimed he was the biggest and the baddest that the USWA has to offer!

Vampiro interview about tonight's Main Event

[Dave Brown introduces Vampiro and asks him about tonight's match]

Dave tells Vampiro that tonight he has a big task in front of him, but on the
other hand Ahmed has some real competition in the ring tonight against Vampiro!

Vampiro says that Ahmed Johnson has been playing politics behind closed doors
in an effort to get a title shot, but what he doesn't realize is that he hasn't
put in the time, and he hasn't faced the best of the best in the USWA.

Tonight when he suffers his first loss in singles competition, he will come back
down to earth and realize that his place in this company will always be mid
card status.

Nigel McGuinness pinned Julio Sanchez with the Guvnor's Crumpet in 0:03:32.
Rating: ***

We had a chance to see Nigel in action on Velocity last week, this week on
Challenge we saw him get a win over Julio Sanchez. McGuinness continues his
winning ways here in 2003.

SuperBrawl Control Center

[Lance Wright is in the SuperBrawl control center]

Lance Wright tells the fans that on Sunday March 30th in Philadelphia, PA
the first ever USWA SuperBrawl will take place! It will be our first Pay Per
View offering of the new year and it's expected to be a big one!

We found out the Main Event for the show will pit Taz finally going one on one
with his nemesis Raven. Raven, the man that has been on Taz's case for
months about his lack of competition will finally step into the ring with the
USWA Heavyweight Champion.

Lets get word from Raven on his upcoming title shot!

Taz and Harry Smith confrontation

[Taz is in the ring to kick off Velocity]

Everyone complained that I was never on TV, now I'm out here every week
because someone in this company pisses me off. This week it so happends to be
Harry F'n Smith. Harry get your ass out here!

[Out comes Harry Smith along with his tag partner Doug Williams.]

Taz tells Williams that he doesn't have a beef with him, but wanted to know
from Smith what exactly the hell went wrong last week? They were headed to
the ring and then he's gone, then he's knocked out and I got Scorpio to
take your spot.

Smith tells Taz that someone jumped him from behind to take him out of the
match, but he wanted to be in it. When he came to and officials were hovered
over him, the only thought he had in his head was to get to the ring. Smith
apologized for causing the DQ and costing the team the match, but he wants
Taz to know he had all intentions of going out there last week and giving the
Bolsheviks the beating of their lives!

[The Bolsheviks and Raven come out to join the conversation.]

Raven says that last week he got the victory over Taz, and that's just a
sign of things to come. Soon enough Raven will once again be the Heavyweight
Champion, but tonight, tonight Taz needs another test. Raven tells Taz that
tonight he is going to take on one of the most powerful men to come to the
USWA in years! Tonight Taz goes one on one with Vladimir Kozlov!

(Kozlov gets right in the face of Taz)

Raven says that Kozlov doesn't fear Taz, he isn't intimidated by Taz's smug
look, and he isn't worried about the words Taz spews, because he can't understand
a word you say. All Kozlov understands is pain, and injuring his opponent.
Tonight Taz will feel that pain, and soon enough Williams and Smith will be
next when the Bolsheviks become the USWA Tag Team Champions.

Of course, Smith you've already felt that pain, when Kozlov laid you out
last week!

(Smith tries to lunge at Raven, but Taz and Williams hold him back.)

Williams tells the Bolsheviks that they need 3 wins to get a title shot,
but if they can't get the three points before SuperBrawl, they will fight
them in a falls count anywhere Philadelphia Street Fight at the PPV! It's
not about the titles anymore, it's personal!

Raven tells Williams that the Bolsheviks will get those three points before
the PPV, but for now Taz better get ready for tonight's Main Event, because
when Kozlov is done with him, their won't be much left for Raven at
SuperBrawl.


AJ Styles defeated Steve Bradley by countout in 0:09:23.
Rating: *** 1/2


AJ Styles gets a victory over Bradley by Countout. AJ Styles was shunned of
his shot at the X-title when an agreement was made for Punk and Bradley to
face off next week on Challenge. During tonights match Styles threw a tired
Bradley to the floor and Corino attacked Bradley on the floor leading to him
being unable to answer the 10 count. AJ Styles picks up a win over Bradley,
and gives Bradley less of a chance for a rematch. If Bradley doesn't get the
victory over Punk next week on Challenge, he may need to start working his way
back up the X-Division ladder.

Low-Ki looks for Daniels

[Backstage Low-Ki is looking for Christopher Daniels who is rumored to be in
the building.]

Low-Ki flips over the catering area, and throws people out of his way as he
is looking all over the arena screaming for Daniels. As he turns the corner
he finds Trinity layed out in the hallway!

Ki grabs official Micky Jay and tells him to get help for her as he grabs a
pipe and continues his quest to find Daniels.

Jun Akiyama and Samoa Joe backstage.

[Akiyama tries to comfort Samoa Joe who is bummed about his loss to Lynn last week
on Challenge.]

Akiyama tells Joe that Jerry Lynn is one of the top contenders in the USWA
and it's okay to have that loss.

Samoa Joe beins to wonder where the fire and passion is that Akiyama and Joe
had before they went to Japan earlier last year.

Samoa Joe tells Akiyama that everyone in this locker room thinks he has gone
soft, he isn't the Japanese assassin that he made himself out to be during
his title reign, that weakness is starting to rub off on me!

Akiyama tells Joe that he still has the fire inside him and will one day win
back that world title back!

Joe tells Akiyama that tonight he has a chance to prove it, because he is going
to take on Jerry Lynn in the ring! It's time to show the fire, it's time to
go back to being the assassins and locker room leaders that they advertised
themselves to be starting tonight's!

The Bulldogs (Doug Williams and Harry Smith) defeated
Delirious and Universo 2000 when Harry pinned Universo 2000 with the
Stampede Powerslam in 0:08:50.
Rating: ** 1/4

Before the bell the Bolsheviks again attempt an attack on Harry Smith, Doug
Williams helped fight back this time, but we didn't know what the tag champs
would look like in the ring. Harry Smith was able to look past the pain and
hit 2000 with a devastating Stampede Powerslam to give the tag champs a
victory!

Universo 2000 and Delirious regroup after the match

[Delirious is checking on Universo 2000 who's back is in pain after the match.]

Delirious tells Universo he is going to get a doctor to check on him.
As Delirious leaves the locker room, The Latin Lover runs in and attacks 2000
who is in no condition to fight back.

Lover continues to rip at Universo 2000's mask and dismantle it from his face
until Delirious hears the commotion and runs back in and fends off Lover.

Delirious tries to ask Lover what the hell is wrong with him, but all he gets
as a response is a sadistic laugh as Lover walks down the hallway with a piece
of Universo 2000's mask in his hand!


Jerry Lynn pinned Jun Akiyama with the Cradle Piledriver in 0:10:04.
Rating: *** 3/4

Jerry Lynn gets the clean pinfall on Akiyama after the match. Lynn
made his way to the back and Joe just shook his head in disgust with another
loss from his friend Akiyama. Joe helps him to his feet as they make their
way to the locker room.


Konnan calls out Latin Lover

[and angry Konnan speaks for the first time about Latin Lover]

Konnan tells Latin Lover that he is sick of sitting back watching him go on
with these attacks. Konnan said that Lover cost him his chance to win the
title infront of his hometown crowd. Now he seems to be attacking Universo
2000 every chance he gets for an opportunity to unmask him?

Konnan says in a matter of weeks Lover has become one of the most hated men
in this company, and Konnan feels he is to blame since he got him a job here
in the first place.

Konnan asks Lover to come out and face him man to man.

[Lover surprisingly makes his way to the ring.]

Lover tells Konnan that he has become a superstar with more popularity than
Konnan, more popularity than Ultimo Guerrero and more popularity than Vampiro.
Yet by playing the politics for months here in the USWA he gets stuck in a dead
end tag team with dead weight like Psicosis! Lover says that HE should of been
the one getting the title shot against Taz in San Diego, but he has been in the
background of the Luchadors here in the USWA, because Vampiro and Konnan are
the only two that are allowed to get ahead in this company!

Konnan says that Lover is out of his mind and it's never been like that. If
Lover wanted to have singles career all he had to do was file the paperwork
and join the X-Division or join the heavyweights to compete for titles, he
didn't need to do it the way he did in San Diego.

Latin Lover tells Konnan he is so sick of listening to him try to tell him
and the other luchadores how they should act while in the United States, and
Lover now considers himself the ANTI-Establishment of the Latinos in the USWA.

Konnan tells Lover that one day their time will come to step in the ring, but
it won't be tonight, because he has agreed to step aside and let someone else
get his hands on him!

[The music hits and out comes Psicosis. Lover's former Tag Team Partner!]

Latin Lover made Psicosis submit to a Gory Special in 0:07:22.
Rating: *** 1/4

Psicosis started this match like a bat out of hell, attacking Lover in the
ring with everything he had, but in the end he got caught and Lover submitted
his former partner with the Gory Special. After the match Lover took the
mic and told Universo 2000 he is coming for his mask, and after he gets
that mask and reveals to the world his ugly face, he will then go after Konnan,
and take him out of the USWA for good!


Corino/Bradley backstage

[Steve Corino meets up with Steve Bradley backstage.]

Corino asks Bradley if he remembers when he turned his back on Jerry Lynn last
year? If he remembers teaming up with Too Cold Scorpio and Sean Waltman to
attempt to end the X-Division career of Lynn on Bradleys own terms?

Corino says he sees through Bradleys crap, and plans to make his life in the
X-Division a living hell as long as the champion is in his corner, and AJ Styles
is competing.

Bradley tells Corino that he should step in the ring himself if he has such
a problem with him, and Corino replies that next week he will be in that ring
with him, as the REFEREE, and if he lays one finger on him, he will be DQed so
fast it will make his head spin.

Corino wishes Bradley good luck next week and walks away with a smirk on his
face.


The Island Boys (OG Ekmo and Kimo) defeated
The Southern Posse (Rick Thames and Sonny Trout) when Ekmo pinned Sonny Trout
with the Ekmo Drop in 0:07:30.
Rating: -* 1/4

Another big victory for the Island Boys tonight on TV. The USWA officials have
been attempting to get the division back on track, and with the re-debut of
the S.A.T.'s some feel that the Island Boys vs the S.A.T.'s is an obvious
choice for a match to figure out which team has the most potential.


Daniels attacks Low-KI

[Backstage Low-Ki continues his search for Daniels]

We see a picture of Low-Ki and out of nowhere a man comes from behind and starts
choking out Ki with a bullrope! It's Christopher Daniels in street clothes.

As Daniels attempts to strangle the life out of Low-Ki, Ki grabs Daniels throat
and starts to weaken him, when out of nowhere he gets hit in the back of the
head with a frying pan by TRISH STRATUS!

Trish and Daniels continued to put a beating on Low-Ki until officials ran
in and pulled Daniels away.

Ultimo Guerrero pinned Steve Madison with the Ultimo Guerrero-Plex in 0:03:32.
Rating: ***

Ultimo Guerrero gets a quick victory over Steve Madison. Guerrero took the mic
after the match and told Lover that he was a disgrace to all the luchadors that
have come to this country in an attempt to make a better life for themselves
and their family.

Taz pinned Vladimir Kozlov after a tiger suplex in 0:10:21.
Rating: ** 1/4
[harry smith interfered against Vladimir Kozlov.]


In our Main Event of the evening Taz gets the victory over Kozlov, after
Smith takes matters into his own hands and gets a little revenge on Kozlov
helping Taz set him up for a loss in the ring. Harry Smith and Taz shook
hands after the match and buried the proverbial hatchet from what occurred
last week in the main event. Raven looked on from the entrance way in
disgust as Taz raised the heavyweight title high above his head to close the
show.

Backstage Notes:


Night two in Dallas was the debut of Trish Stratus, and the return of Christopher
Daniels. Stratus and the WWE could not come to an agreement on a contract. She
has signed a short term deal with the USWA and appears to be the one that will
even the odds for Daniels with Trinity around.

Latin Lover's victory over his former tag team partner Psicosis has Konnan
wondering what the future will hold for all the luchadores here in the USWA.
With Lover going off the deep end, it looks like it will be up to Konnan
to attempt to bring him back down to earth after his wild attacks on Universo
2000.

The USWA has announced that they will be hosting a special show from Boston
Massachusets on March 28th. This event will be a single Velocity TV Taping,
along with a LIVE "SuperBrawl Showdown" event the night before our Pay Per View.
Scheduled to be on the card is Taz, CM Punk, Lover, Chris Benoit, and the
Island Boys.

The schedule for the USWA has been announced on the website. The dates are
until May of 2003. It has been discussed that the 6th show at the Mid South
Coliseum in June will be the third annual King of the Death Match Tournament.
With the USWA having more national publicity, this tournament has been demoted
to the smaller venues.

The USWA has also announced that this summer will be the return of the
Global Honor Tournament. The last time this 16 man tournament took place was
in 2001 won by Don Frye to become the first ever Global Champion. This year
the rules are 16 men will qualify over the summer for a 2 night 16 man tournament
The winner of the tournament will be given the GHC (Global Honor Crown) and
be the automatic #1 contender to the USWA Heavyweight title. They will get
the title match at our August PPV Hardcore Heaven. All competitors for the
tournament must be in the heavyweight division and if they win, they can't put
the title shot up for grabs in any type of match leading up to the event.
The USWA will be bringing in competitors from all over the world to compete in
this tournament, which is scheduled to take place in late June/early July.

This winter the tag team division will get it's own tournament. A Round Robin
tournament to crown to real world tag league champions. Winners of that tournament
will receive a tag title shot going into the 2004 season.

These tournaments along with our one night 8 man x-division tournament will
be permanent fixtures in the company.

The USWA now travels to Long Island, NY for two more nights of TV tapings.

Chad Collyer announces move to the heavyweight division.

[Dave Brown brings out Chad Collyer]

Dave recaps Collyers success in the X-Division with victories recently over

that he wanted to tell the fans here on Challenge.

Chad thanks Dave for the time, and then goes on to explain that although
he enjoys the thrill of the X-Division, his dream is to become a global icon,
someone that can represent the USWA on an internaitonal level and he feels
that his best opportunity to do that would be to join the heavyweight ranks.

Dave Brown says that the competition in the heavyweight division is going
to be intense with names like Vamprio, Chris Benoit, Samoa Joe, and Low-Ki.

Chad says that he has always wanted to take the plunge and challenge himself on

since he feels his voice goes unheard he wants to take it out on me!

Universo tells Lance that he won't sit here week after week and let Latin Lover
try to embarass him and his family heritage by trying to take off his mask.

Universo 2000 says that if Latin Lover wants to take him on one on one in

Raven talks about what it's like to be champion.

[Backstage Raven is in the locker room talking to the camera, while we can

Raven tells a story about December of 2001 while heading to New York city for
New Years Revolution he was picked up in a limo, taken to a five star hotel,
where he had a penthoue suite overlooking the city as he prepared to defend
the title against Low-Ki at New Years Revolution that year.

After a workout, he was escorted to Capitale resturaunt, a five star resturaunt
and was given a comped meal for him and his friends.

In March of last year on the way to L.A. from the Japan tour when he lost
the strap to New Jack, he stayed at a travel lodge and had to split a room
with the Pitbulls.

No more comped meals, no more luxury automobiles, and no more heavyweight title.

Raven says that he became acquainted to a certain lifestyle when he was the
heavyweight champion, AND HE WANTS IT BACK!

Raven says that at SuperBrawl, he is going to get that life back, quote the
Raven, nevermore....

Chris Benoit, Low-Ki didn't show up for the match and Jun Akiyama stepped in
to challenge Benoit. It was a back and forth brawl that ended in a double
countout and we didn't get a clear winner. The real story of this match was
that Jun Akiyama stepped up to the challenge and took Chris Benoit to the
limits in our Main Event.

Rating: **** 1/4

A hot opener for Challenge, as Konnan defeated Ultimo Guerrero to open
the show. Konnan was on his game as he heads into SuperBrawl to take on
Latin Lover.

Konnan talks about his plans for Latin Lover

[Corey Maclin joins Konnan in the ring.]

Corey comments on the impressive victory today over Guerrero and tells him
that Latin Lover is the next guy on his way.

Konnan says that he is so sick of Lover and his new attitude, attacking
Psicosis last week backstage, attempting to rip the mask off of Universo 2000,
at SuperBrawl it's time to stop trying to talk sense into that man, its
time to take him to the woodshed and beat his ass!

Corey mentions that this week on Velocity he will be in the main event against
Raven, a man he has a history with, and a man who is also on the path to the
heavyweight title.

Konnan says that Raven is another one who he is sick of hearing from. All
he does is complain about why he doesn't have this, why he doesn't have that.
Where I grew up we didn't have anything! He should be happy for a roof over
his head, food on the table, and the money he has in his pocket. On Velocity
he's going to use Raven as a warmup for his match at the PPV, and weaken
an opponent for his good friend Taz!

joins Ahmed in the ring.]

Johnson says that he respects what Jerry has done in the X-Division, and that
he appreciated the fact that he feels BAD for him about the way the politics
of the USWA have put him in line waiting for a title shot, but if he plans on
facing him in that ring this week on Velocity he better have his game face on.

Lynn takes the mic and tells Johnson that he was being sincere when he said that
people dodged him when he first came on the scene, and with a undefeated record
nobody that has something to lose is willing to step in the ring with him, and
nobody with a strap around their waste will take a match either.

Lynn tells him that on Velocity, may the best man win, as they both shook hands
and left the ring.

Announcers remind the fans Challenge will be preempted as we present
SuperBrawl Showdown live from Boston, MA.

[An ANGRY President Bill Dundee makes his way to the ring.]

Bill Dundee says that some fans might be happy about last weeks match between
Chris Benoit vs Jun Akiyama, but one person that isn't happy is him!.

Dundee says that Low-Ki missed his booking on purpose because he didn't want
to get in the ring with Benoit. Well TONIGHT Dundee knows that
Low-Ki is in the building and TONIGHT that match is going to happen.

Not only is that going to happen to make good on last weeks main event, but
THIS WEEK because Low-Ki didn't feel it was important to make the show,
THE GLOBAL TITLE WILL BE ON THE LINE!

[The fans erupt as Low-Ki's music hits and he runs to the ring.]

Corino welcomes Jose back to the USWA and says it's been awhile since he's seen
them in the ring. Corino goes on to explain how impressed he has been with the
SAT's since they're return to the USWA. Corino then tells Jose they he is
looking for a team to help mold, and to help bring to the top of the ladder
in the USWA, and that the SAT's might just be that team.

Jose says he doesn't think they would be interested in a manager, they want to
win the tag titles on their own.

Corino laughs and just says that Jose is so young and innocent, and to not rush
to a decision, but to think about it. Look what he has done for Bobby Fish.

Konnan meets with Universo 2000 backstage.

[Backstage in Universo 2000's dressing room Konnan walks in.]

Konnan asks Universo 2000 if he really thinks putting his mask on the line against
Latin Lover at the Superbrawl Super Show is a good idea?

Universo 2000 says he is sick of people like Lover going around thinking the
world owes them everything. Universo 2000 says he wants to teach Lover a lesson
and when he walks into Superbrawl Konnan better wear some glasses to protect
himself from the shine off Lovers bald head!

Konnan tells Universo he wants to be in his corner in Boston for the showdown,
but Universo 2000 rejects it, also saying that he doesn't want Delirious or
Cabana there either. It's something he has to do on his own.

Konnan respects that and gives him a hug as he leaves the dressing room.

Backstage Notes:

We are one week away from USWA SuperBrawl and things continue to heat up.
Tonight the biggest news is the crowning of the 8th Global Champion in the
history of the USWA Chris Benoit. It may have come as a shock to Low-Ki that
the title would be defended tonight, but nevertheless, Benoit was prepared
and leaves Long Island as the new champion.

Daniels talks about the Bullrope match

(Daniels starts the show in the ring with the mic in hand.)

Christopher Daniels is in the ring with Trish Stratus at his side. Daniels
says that a big change has taken place in the USWA, A new Global champion.
Chris Benoit defeated Low-Ki last week, and the title match Christopher Daniels
had set up has no title on the line.

Daniels tells the fans that the title won't change the beating that he has in
store for Low-Ki at SuperBrawl. Daniels says that this match wasn't put
together because he wants to win back that title, this math was put together
to get revenge. Revenge for putting him on the shelf for a month, revenge
on the man who thought he can win that belt and run around this company like
he was the owner himself!

At Superbrawl, revenge is going to be extracted on Low-Ki, and if Trinity thinks
she's going to get involve in the match, he has a little blonde bombshell that
will make sure she thinks twice!

Ahmed Johnson talks about Global Title

(Ahmed Johnson joins Lance Russell for an interview.)

Russell says that Ahmed has been enjoying the week after his big win over
Jerry Lynn right here last week. Russell acknowledges that Ahmed Johnson has
the record and the resume to back up a title shot.

Ahmed Johnson says that he has been waiting for this chance for a long time.
Last week, as Daniels said at the beginning of the show, the landscape has
changed here in the USWA. Low-KI is out as champion and Chris Benoit is our
new champ. Tonight, Ahmed Johnson wants to state his claim at the USWA
Global championship and he wants Chris Benoit to give him the title match!

Lance says that it would be an incredible match and hopes it can get done,
because the fans would love to see those two in the ring.

Bill Dundee comes down to the ring and tells Ahmed that with the streak he
has been on, that match has a great possibility of happening, but tonight
he steps in the ring with Jun Akiyama, and he should set his sites on Akiyama,
before calling out Chris Benoit.

Ahmed says that after he defeats Jun Akiyama tonight, the Global Title will
be around his waist!

The Island Boys team up with Rick Thames to get a victory over Cabana, Universo

lot of distractions for Cabana and Delirious.

Too Cold challenges Latin Lover

(Corey Maclin invites Too Cold Scorpio out to ringside.)

Too Cold tells Corey that last week during the Main Event, Latin Lover felt
it would be in his best interest to try to change the outcome of that main
event by getting involved with Konnan and Raven match. Scorpio says that Lover
must feel real good about himself as of late with the way he's treated his
former tag partner Psicosis, and the unmasking of Universo 2000.

Scorpio tells Lover that if he has any guts he would face him tonight in the
ring!

Scorpio to his feet as Lover ran off with another victory.

Taz final words before SuperBrawl

(Lance and Corey introduce this video that Taz sent in as his final comments before
stepping into the ring with Raven at SuperBrawl.)

Taz is in the lockerroom after a USWA event and he said that the time for
talking is over, tomorrow night in Philadelphia, the USWA will get a chance
to see that Raven is all talk, no action. Tomorrow night Taz says he will
defend the title successfully for the seventh time.

The excuses that he isn't a fighting champion, the excuses that he dodges the
real competition will be put to rest when he takes Raven and chokes him out
in the middle of the ring in front of thousands of crazy Philadelphia fans.

Raven will be the one with all the excuses when he gets choked out in the middle
of the ring!

SuperBrawl Hype Central

(Lance Wright welcomes the fans to Hype Central)

Lance tells the fans that it all comes to ahead this weekend on Pay-Per-View
as the USWA presents its second Pay Per View of the year, SuperBrawl. Live from
Philadelphia, PA Sunday night! Lets take a look at the full card.

AJ Styles vs Steve Bradley
-This X-Division match comes as Corino is giving Bradley a chance against his
man AJ Styles, to get his head back in the game. A victory over AJ Styles will
put Bradley back in a position to get another shot at the USWA X-Division title.
A LOSS to AJ Styles puts him at the bottom of the list in the X-Division.

Konnan vs Latin Lover
-In this heavyweight division match, Konnan will go into the ring to defend the
honor of Psicosis, Universo 2000 and all the luchadores that Latin Lover has
disrespected since his sudden attitude change. Will Konnan be able to step into
the ring and teach Lover a lesson? Or will Latin Lover's singles career continue
to turn heads? Konnan will be the best competition that Latin Lover has faced
since he's joined the heavyweight division.

Tag Team Title Match
(C) The Bulldogs vs The New Bolsheviks
All month long the Bolsheviks have ran past their opponents in an effort to
accumulate three points and challenge the Bulldogs for a rematch to the tag
team titles. They were sucessful in their efforts. The Bulldogs looked
unstoppable in action tonight on Velocity. These two teams meet for the title
for the second time this Sunday. Can the Bolsheviks win the titles and claim
their first tag team titles?

X-Division Title Match
(c) Bobby Fish vs CM Punk
CM Punk defeated Steve Bradley to earn the status of top contender. Punk has
made it clear that the history of the X-Division title should have an asterik
next to it because he was never defeated in 2001 for the title. Can CM Punk
reclaim the title? Or can Corino's prodigy Bobby Fish make his first sucessful
title defense?

Bullrope Match
Christopher Daniels w/ Trish Stratus vs Low-Ki w/ Trinity
-In January of this year Low-Ki and Trinity devised a plan to put Daniels out
of action and knock him out of the running for another title shot at his Global
title. After weeks of pleading, Trinity portrayed herself as an abused girlfriend
who was looking to Daniels for help with her abusive boyfriend Low-Ki. Daniels
never did fall for the trap, until late January when Ki attacked Daniels from
behind, destroying our television set, and literally attempting to hang Daniels
by the ringpost via a bullrope, Daniels was out of action for about a month.
Daniels made a surprise appearance and layed a beating on Low-KI and challenging
him to this match. The Global title is no longer in Ki's posession, and this
match is being advertised as a brawl with pride and revenge on the line.
Will we see a side of Daniels that we have never seen in the USWA before? What
will Stratus and Trinity bring to this hot feud? We will get our answers on
Sunday night!

Jerry Lynn and Chris Benoit vs Jun Akiyama and
Coming off New Years Revolution this match was designed to be the final
confrontation between these the four men, until Samoa Joe suffered an injury
during a USWA event. Joe has been day to day and nobody has been signed to
fill in for him. We do not know if Jun will bring a mystery man to the PPV
or of Joe will be healthy enough to take part in this match. Again we will find
out the answers on Sunday.

Heavyweight Title Match
(c) Taz vs Raven
-Since the beginning of the year Raven has made it his own personal mission to
make sure Taz is putting the title on the line against the best competition in
2003. So far Taz has defeated former champion New Jack on our last PPV along
with a big victory over Konnan in February. This time Raven gets the chance
to step into the ring himself and try to make history becoming the first ever
two time USWA Heavyweight champion. A few weeks ago, Raven explained what it was
like being the heavyweight champion, it is a feeling he wants back badly. Taz
is trying to fulfill his destiny by becoming the greatest USWA champion in the
history of the company. Can Taz make Raven his seventh successful title defense?
or will Raven become the two time champion that he craves so badly?

We will find out the answers as USWA Presents SuperBrawl only on Pay Per View
this Sunday night!

Jun Akiyama pinned Ahmed Johnson with the Exploder in 0:06:18.Rating: ** 1/2


Jun Akiyama defeated Ahmed Johnson and is the first person to pin Ahmed Johnson
in singles competition since he debuted in the USWA! WOW, We don't know exactly
what this does for Ahmed's future Global title shot, but Jun Akiyama has sent
shockwaves through the USWA with this victory today in our Main Event!

Backstage Notes:

Sean Morely no showed the six man match that was the start of a program that
the company was putting together with the Island boys. Dundee was spotted
on the phone in a shouting match with who we can only assume was Morely.
Dundee told some other members of the management team that Morley had been
fired and to not book him on any upcoming shows.

The USWA has made it clear they are attempting to cut down the roster, even
with the contract to present the 12 Mid-South shows. Look for a lot of
changes in the roster as Dundee continues to trim the fat as programs finish up
the first quarter of 2003. Any no shows or unexcused absences from shows may
result in an immediate dismissal from the company.

Tomorrow night the USWA will present SuperBrawl and finish up our shows for March.
We will have a crew at the Mid South Coliseum for a show on Monday night and
then head to Detroit two days of TV tapings to kick off the second quarter of the
year.

the ring, Universo 2000 clocked Lover over the head with the bell and then
threw him back into the ring. Konnan locked on the Tequilla Sunrise and
the ref called for the bell as Lover wasn't responding. Medics had to come
to the ring to help Latin Lover to the back. Universo 2000 took the mic and

Daniels showed us a whole new side of violence tonight against Low-Ki in

the match. Trinity tried to break up a pin when Stratus made her presence known
by tackling Trinity and having a fight of their own. Stratus got the upper hand
and then even hit Low-Ki with a low blow during the match. The finish came
when Daniels performed his last rites finishing maneuver on a bruised and

It was a shock, but Samoa Joe was cleared to wrestle and Joe and Akiyama looked
like a completely different team tonight. A victory over Benoit and Jerry Lynn
has revitalized these two. Jun Akiyama dished out punishment to the new Global
champion Chris Benoit, and in a stare down he pointed to his waist to claim that
he wants that Global title himself! Samoa Joe made Lynn tap in the Texas Cloverleaf
giving his team the victory at SuperBrawl.

Taz pinned Raven after a bridging back suplex in 0:16:03.
Rating: *** 3/4
(Taz retained the Heavyweight Title.)


In a match that was closer than most people expected, Taz did defend the
heavyweight title over Raven, but he wasn't able to make Raven tap out.
After the match Raven took the mic and even proclaimed Taz as a lier to his
fans, because he didn't make good on his promise to choke out Raven. Raven
told Taz he might have gotten a victory tonight, but he is weak, and he can
tell that his reign is coming to an end.

Backstage Notes:

A hot Pay Per View for the fans tonight and a wild one as we head into the
second half of the season.

Raven is still in the head of Taz. Raven didn't win the title tonight, and
lost when Taz executed a picture perfect bridging back suplex getting the
pinfall on Raven, but in the end Raven continued to patronize the heavyweight
champion because he wasn't able to finish him off the way he claimed he would.

Raven will not get the next titile shot, but it doesn't look like he's going
away anytime soon either.

Chad Collyer confronts Jerry Lynn

(Chad Collyer grabs a mic at ringside.)

Chad Collyer tells Jerry Lynn that he thought about what he did a few weeks
ago when he gave Ahmed Johnson an opportunity. The opportunity to step into
the ring with a major player in the USWA. The opportunity to face off against
a top tier talent in himself, Jerry Lynn.

Chad says that he is out here tonight asking for that same opportunity. Chad
says he has been here for awhile now and those opportunities are few and far
between, but if he gives him the chance to prove his worth in the ring, he
knows the future will be bright. So Jerry, will you give me that opportunity?

(Lynn waits a minute, and then asks for a mic.)

Jerry tells Collyer that the matches he has seen him in he has been impressed.
Lynn says that he still has a lot of wrestling left in his body, but he also
respects a young man who is willing to step up for a challenge. Lynn says
that he will give him a match in the future.

Steve Corino introduces his new team

(Lance Russell calls over Steve Corino to discuss this new duo of his.)

Cornio tells Lance that he tried to warn the world that he was bringing in
a team that would devistate all the tag teams in the USWA!

Lance said that the Island Boys were the victors tonight, but Corino just
laughed it off saying that they might have won a battle tonight, but the
war that has just been announced on the Tag Team Division, will be won by
Bad Intentions!

Corino said that he tried to sign a few teams already here in the USWA,
but nobody would make the commitment, so he had to go out of his
way to find the biggest and the baddest team on the planet, and thats these
two right here!

Giant Bernard takes the mic from Lance and tells the fans that Bad Intentions
plan on going through every team on this roster, and they will be the team
that takes out the Bulldogs!

Karl Anderson says that the USWA has weak competition in the tag team division,
and it's no reason the Bulldogs hold those titles, but a real team has
just made this place their home, and it won't be long before they win the
gold.

although the Island Boys were left laying in the ring, THEY will challenge the

Raven tells the fans that the spring of 2003 has the flowers in bloom, the

Raven says that in 2002 the San Francisco Giants took the Angels to seven games.
They were one game away from becoming the World Series champions in 2002. Now
in 2003 the Giants will have another shot to win the title.

At SuperBrawl I came so close to defeating Taz, but it just wasn't my time.
As much as I want that title back around my shoulder, as much as I want back
in those first class seats, it didn't happen.

But the spring of 2003 has started, and with a new season, comes new opportunity.
In a six man tag two weeks ago, I hit the champion with the evenflow DDT
to score the pinfall. When was the last time Taz was pinned? It's been a long
time.

I don't care if I have to fight Taz every night all around this circuit, soon
enough I will get the best of him, and I will become the heavyweight champion
once again.

Bobby Fish calls out AJ Styles on his victory, and tells him that May 3rd

Backstage Notes:

With a trimmed down roster, the USWA has finished night one of the TV tapings

championship.

Low-Ki and King Fale look to be a decent unit, and I could only assume we will
see more of them in the near future.

The Tag Team Division is at a peak right now, with Bad Intentions, The Island
Boys, The Bulldogs, and The New Bolsheviks all competing for the title. Rumor
has it that Bill Dundee has made phone calls to several former USWA tag teams
about maybe making a return to the company.

The April and May schedule will continue to have Challenge and Velocity
TV programs, and will finish up on a hardcore non PPV event titled, Extreme
Dreams. The show will be focused around two barbed wire matches, in honor

Raven tells Collyer that Taz has never been up against competition like Raven

Boys attacked them from behind and laid them out with their own tag team title
belts.)

their showown in Richmond, the Island Boys will be bringing the gold home!

AJ Styles pinned Prince Devitt with the Styles Clash in 0:11:10.
Rating: *** 1/4

Another excellent showcase of the X-Division, and a good warmup for AJ Styles
as he defeated newcomer Prince Devitt and prepares for his title match against
Bobby Fish this week on Velocity. AJ looked in the camera and told Fish that
it is time for him to reclaim what is rightfully his! The X-Division title.

Raven pinned Chad Collyer with the Evenflow DDT in 0:11:19.
Rating: *** 3/4

Our main event saw Raven bounce back into the heavyweight title scene with
a victory over Chad Collyer. Raven took the mic and told Chad Collyer that he
was a pathetic opponent, and that he will never get a shot to wear a
championship title in the USWA. Raven once again told Konnan and Taz that
anytime they want real competition, all they have to do is step in the ring
with him.

Konnan asks Ahmed Johnson to be his partner.

(Backstage Konnan meets up with Ahmed Johnson.)

Konnan tells Ahmed that tonight Taz and Chris Benoit have challenged him to
a tag match. Konnan says he needs a partner and this is an opportunity
for Ahmed to step into the ring with the big boys.

Ahmed tells Konnan that he understands his beef with Taz, but he doesn't
want to get involved. Konnan reminds Ahmed of teaming with him and Taz at
War Games in December, and how Taz hasn't given him a title shot since
that match in return. Konnan tells Ahmed that if he doesn't start challenging
the best that the USWA has to offer, he's never going to be a champion.

Ahmed reluctantly agrees to be Konnans partner knowing that a marquee matchup
will help advance is carrer in the USWA.

against the New Bolsheviks. This one ended in a no contest as Kimo and Ekmo
decided to bring the chairs to the ring and attack the Bolsheviks in the same
style they have against both The tag team champions the Bulldogs, and
Bad Intentions. Vladimir didn't sit around waiting to be hit in the head with
a chair, he took to the crowd and grabbed his own, until the ref called for
the bell and called it a no contest.

Our co-main event on Velocity saw Latin Lover run to the ring and attack
Konnan. Lover continues to get involved in Konnans matches and he is just a
couple weeks away from receiving another heavyweight title shot. Benoit tried
to pull lover off of Konnan, but Lover attacked Benoit as well. Latin Lover
told Konnan that the USWA isn't big enough for the both of them, and eventually
someone is going to have to go!

X Division members discuss tonights main event.

(a video plays highlights of both Bobby Fish and AJ Styles. As the video

CM punk says that he has seen enough of Bobby Fish and AJ Styles to know
that AJ is going to be the next champion.

Alex Shelley says that nobody has been able to climb the X-Division ladder
faster than Bobby Fish. Shelley also says that Fish will retain the title.

Prince Devitt says that he has only been in the USWA for a short while, but

Fish he appreciated the shot at the title, but right now, Corino family business
is the only thing on his mind! Steve Corino hit the ring and raised the hands
of both of his clients. Out came Bad Intentions as Steve Corino claimed that
the fans were looking at the future of this company!

Airs: May 10th, 2003
Hosts: Scott Hudson and Dave Brown

Dave Brown and Scott Hudson run down the show.

(Camera zooms in on the announcers at ringside as Dave Brown welcomes the fans.)

Dave Brown tells the fans that they are going to be in for a wild hour of pro
wrestling today on Challenge. CM Punk will be taking on Steve Bradley in singles
action. The winner will challenge Bobby Fish for the X-Title at a future show.

Dave also reminds the fans that tonight Trinity will be taking on Trish Stratus
in a one on one match. This is the match to settle the score between these two
women. All managers have been banned from ringside, and we will have a positive
finish.

Scott Hudson then reminds Dave not to forget about tonights huge main event as
Chad Collyer will be in a handicap match against two guys that have been known
to do some of Ravens dirty work, the New Bolsheviks. Dave Brown chimes in telling
Scott that if Collyer wins that match, he will be getting a rematch with Raven
in the near future.

Dave tells the fans not to go anywhere, because USWA Challenge is on the air,
and they will be back after a commercial break.

Chad Collyer asks for a rematch with Raven.

(Scott Hudson brings out Chad Collyer.)

Scott tells Chad that we all know about tonights main event against the
New Bolsheviks and just wondered what makes him think he will be able to come
up with a victory in this handicap match?

Chad tells Hudson that last week he wanted to make a name for himself in the
heavyweight division. Collyer says that sometimes guys get lost in the shuffle
here in the USWA, and he doesn't want to be one of those guys. Collyer says that
when he lost to Raven he knew that his career here might be in jeopardy.

Hudson tells Chad thats nonsense, and he has a bright future here in the USWA.

Chad says that after that match he got on the phone with a mentor of his and
asked him for advice. That advice was if you want to make it to the top, you
have to die trying. That mentor was Dean Malenko, who is here today to watch
my back in my match later on.

(Out comes Dean Malenko to a wild ovation.)

Scott Hudson is shocked by the appearance of Dean Malenko, and gives Dean the mic.

Dean says that Collyer is a good kid who deserves an opportunity. Malenko says
that he trained Chad for three years on how to get things done in the ring, but
it's that killer instinct outside of the ring that only he can teach himself.

Chad says that tonight if he goes on to beat Alex and Vladimir, he will get
another shot at Raven, and this time it will be Ravens rules!

Scott Hudson wishes Chad the best of luck and asks the fans to give it up one
more time for the man of 1,000 holds, Dean Malenko!

Steve Bradley and CM Punk battled to a double pin in 0:07:58.
Rating: **** 1/4

A wild X-division match with two of our top contenders ended in a double pin
due to a cradle roll. After the match both Bradley and Punk wanted to know
what this meant for their next opportunity at the X-Division title.

Out comes USWA President Bill Dundee who tells both men that they will NOT
be getting a title shot, and that a three way dance in Richmond will take place
between Matt Sydal, Alex Shelley and Prince Devitt will determine who faces
Bobby Fish later on in the show.

Both Bradley and CM Punk look at each other in disgust, blaming one another
for the outcome of the match.

Steve Corino claims to have a big announcement.

(Dave Brown tells the fans that he will be joined by Steve Corino in just a
few minutes, but first he runs down some of the USWA upcoming shows.)

Steve Cornio makes his way to the announce position and greets Brown and Hudson.

Dave Brown tells Corino that last week on Velocity his two men AJ Styles and
Bobby Fish took the X-Division to a whole new level in their title match.

Corino arrogantly agrees with Dave, but tells him that the business between
two of the best x-division competitors is now over, and it's on to new business
for the Corino family. Steve tells Dave and the fans that they will want to
tune into Velocity tonight, because he has FINALLY signed his first heavyweight
division talent to a Corino family contract!

Dave Brown says that sounds like big news, and asks for a hint as to who this
new client might be?

Cornio says that it's a man who has seemed lost in recent months, a man that has
proved his worth to the company many times, and a man that, with a little guidance
might just become the next USWA Heavyweight Champion!

Brown says that this is big news, and that the Corino Family just keeps growing!

Rating: ** 1/2

A wild match to finally end the feud between Stratus and Trinity. These
two women have been going at it ever since Christopher Daniels introduced
Trish to the world in an effort to even the odds against Low-KI.

The match started off in Trish Stratus favor when she executed multiple kicks
to Trinity's head, but over time Trinity was able to work over Trish and hit
her moonsault finisher to gain the clean pin victory. Trinity celebrated in the
ring like she's never won a match in her life! She jumped on the mic and said
that she beat the self proclaimed worlds greatest womens professional wrestler!

Trinity continued to mock Trish and tell her that she is the first lady of the
USWA and that nobody has ever beaten her in this company!

A WILD main event tonight as Chad Collyer asked the ref to make this a no DQ
matchup. The Bolsheviks agreed and all hell broke loose in this one. Collyer
started the match in control over Alex, but once the double team power moves
were put into play, Collyer was stopped in his tracks.

Chad continued to get the upper hand on Alex, until Raven made his way down to
the ring. Raven at one point threw a stop sign to Alex, but it was intercepted
by Chad, who used to to get Vladimir off his feet!

As the match continued, Out comes the tag team #1 contenders the Island Boys,
who wanted to make sure The New Bolsheviks saw them at ringside. As the match
continued, Vladimir pounded away on a smaller Chad Collyer. At one point in
the match Kozlov hit Collyer with his Red Scare finisher, but Collyer got
his shoulder up!

As the momentum started to change in Chads favor, Dean Malenko jumped up on
the ring apron distracting Senior official Downtown Bruno, giving Kimo time to
throw the ringside bell to Chad, who then used it on Vladimir to knock him
out cold! Chad went for a Russian legsweep into the Texas Cloverleaf finisher on
Alex, who tapped as Collyer pointed at Dean Malenko at ringside dedicating the
victory to his mentor!

Announcers: Lance Russell and Corey Maclin

Steve Corino introduces a new member to the Corino Family.

(Steve Corino hits the ring with X-Division champ Bobby Fish and Bad Intentions,
and AJ Styles.)

With a grin on his face, Steve Corino tells the fans that he can't wait any
longer. Corino explains that he received a phone call from a man that will
remain nameless. This man asked Corino for some help. He said that a certain
someone on the USWA roster has been causing some MAJOR distractions for him
in a very important time in his life.

Cornio pauses and looks around giving a smile to all of his Cornio Family clients.
Steve continues and says that once the check cleared, he was given a mission,
that mission was to "eliminate" a certain someone from the USWA, and by god
thats what he plans to do.

Corino then asks the fans to allow him to introduce the newest client to the
family.....

(Everyone looks toward the dressing room as the music hits, the fans are in
disbelief...as JUN Akiyama makes his way to the ring!)

Corino high fives X-Division champion Bobby Fish and tells the fans that he
now has control over one of the greatest Heavyweight champions in the history
of the USWA! Jun Akiyama!

Jun walks into the ring and shakes hands with Cornio, Giant Bernard, Karl
Anderson and AJ Styles.

Corino says that Jun Akiyama is still the greatest champion in the history of
the company, and that with his direction he is going to guide Akiyama back
on the path that he needs to be on to get that shot, BUT FIRST a little tune up.
With a large bonus, Jun Akiyama is on a new mission. That mission is to completely
destroy The Latin Lover!

Corino says that the Latin Lover hasn't done a thing to the Corino family, but
money talks.

The camera zooms in on the face of Jun Akiyama as Corino tells Lover that he is
looking at his worst nightmare!

(Steve Corino's music hits as everyone leaves the ring.)

Backstage
Taz has words for Ahmed Johnson

(A camera crew meets up with Taz who is in the locker room.)

Taz said that last week in the tag team match, nothing has been resolved
between him and Ahmed Johnson. Taz says the he knows that Johnson thinks he has
been dodging him as of late, but thats not the case. Taz says that the thing
that pisses him off, is that Dundee has made the decision that Ahmed Johnson
would be the special guest referee during the Konnan match.

Taz continues that Dundee gave him a bullshit excuse that he needed some muscle
in as the ref in case Vampiro and Latin Lover decide to get involved, but in
the end, Taz says he doesn't trust Johnson one bit. He knows that Ahmed has been
eying that Heavyweight title from the second he stepped foot in this company. He
knows that his old buddy New Jack, who tapped out and lost the title is the one
who brought Ahmed to the table, and a victory over Taz is just what Johnson has
been waiting for.

Taz tells Johnson that all those questions are going out the door tonight.
Because tonight, no titles on the line, one on one, The Heavyweight champion
is going to step in the ring with the Global champion Ahmed Johnson! Taz is
going to take Johnson down in the ring, and give him an example of what he can
look forward to if he decided to pull and crap during his heavyweight title match.

Backstage
Latin Lover promo.

(Latin Lover is in his dressing room throwing anything he can get his hands on.)

Lover looks into the camera and tells Konnan that he knows he is the one who
put the bounty on his head. Lover just laughs it off and tells Konnan that he
will pay for what he's done! Lover says that he will stop at nothing to make sure
that the USWA title NEVER gets around his waist.

Raven pinned Jerry Lynn after a swinging neckbreaker in 0:05:06.

Raven went one on one with the USWA legend Jerry Lynn and in the process
he separated Lynns shoulder. As Jerry rolled around the ring in pain while
the medical team attended to him, Raven told Chad Collyer that this was a
little preview of what happens when you play by Ravens Rules!

Backstage
Vampiro has good news for Latin Lover.

(Still in Latin Lovers dressing room Vampiro enters.)

Lover tells Vampiro that he doesn't want to talk to anyone and that he should
leave, but Vampiro tells Lover that he should be so upset. Vampiro tells Lover
that he hates Konnan as much as anyone, and that in their years in Mexico, for
as many fans that praise Konnans name, their are plenty of people who can't
stand him.

Vampiro tells Lover to trust him, because before Konnan got here to the USWA,
it was Vampiro that was bringing in all the talent from south of the border.

Interview
The Bulldogs cut a promo on the Island Boys.

(The tag team champions hit the ringside area.)

Lance Russell comments to Harry Smith that they have been on a roll defending
those tag team championships.

Harry Smith says that it's been a wild month with the USWA. Tag teams are
winning title shots, teams are getting knocked out backstage, and some teams
are losing handicap matches on Challenge!

Lance tells the fans that he is referring to the New Bolsheviks loss to Chad
Collyer.

Doug Williams tells Russell that this upcoming weekend they will give the
Island Boys the tag title shot that they earned last month in Detroit, but
they are not happy with the way they have been going about handling business
as of late.

Williams tells Kimo and Ekmo that they have been on both sides of the train
tracks. They have cheated their way to victory, and they've also done it the
right way. Williams warns the Island Boys that the Bulldogs are still more than
willing to go back to those days if thats what it takes to keep the gold.

Harry Smith tells Richmond Virginia that they are about to see the best of the
best in the tag team division!

Lance wishes the Bulldogs luck in their title defense!

Rating: * 1/2


Taz, the heavyweight champion makes Ahmed Johnson, the GLOBAL champion submit
in the middle of the ring! A battle of the big men, as champion vs champion
took place to a positive finish. Taz got on the mic and told Ahmed that if
he even thinks about putting his title reign in jeopardy, he better think
again!

Backstage Notes:

-King Fale and Karl Anderson has been rescheduled for next week's Challenge.
Bill Dundee is not happy with the outcome of that match.

-Jun Akiyama has joined the Corino family and it looks like his career
might be back on track. It's been said behind closed doors that his partnership
with Samoa Joe just didn't work out. Samoa Joe has left the promotion, which
will give Akiyama a new opportunity to get back in the big picture of the
company.

-After the show a shocking announcement was made that Jerry Lynn has given
notice. Jerry Lynn has been with the USWA since it's early beginnings, but it
has been known that he felt that his time was running out. He wasn't given a
title shot, which really upset him. The USWA is going to dedicate next weeks
Velocity to Jerry Lynn and he will be in the main event, given a dream match!

The USWA house show that will take place this upcoming weekend looks to be
a big one. The fans of Richmond are in for a great night of professional wrestling.
Check out the lineup below.

-Jerry Lynn will take on a mystery opponent

-Matt Sydal vs Alex Shelley vs Prince Devitt-Winner vs Fish for the X-title
later on in the show.

-Raven vs Chad Collyer (Ravens Rules.)

-Low Ki vs Chris Daniels (Cage Match)

-Jun Akiyama vs Latin Lover

-The Bulldogs vs The Island Boys

-Main event-
Taz vs Konnan for the heavyweight title. Ahmed Johnson as guest ref.

The main event has so many sub plots. Ahmed Johnson will be the special guest
referee, it is known that he is not a big fan of Taz, because he feels he has
dodged him in the past.

Bill Dundee has asked Ahmed to be the referee to keep Latin Lover and Vampiro
away from the ringside, who have their eyes on Konnan. Konnan has apparently
paid the Corino Family to "eliminate" Latin Lover from the USWA and keep him
away from the ring as he goes on to win his first ever USWA Heavyweight title.

NOBODY knows how this is going to end up, but there is a very good chance that
we will leave Richmond, VA with a new Heavyweight Champion!

[JoshiQ]

You have the TV format down with so few matches and a lot of interviews.

Didn't ever picture Akiyama joining up with Corino. I guess maybe the deal took place back when Akiyama no-showed his match with Ahmed a few weeks earlier.

Taz versus Konnan should be an interesting match, especially with Ahmed as the special referee. Looking forward to seeing where that goes.

Good stuff.

[seanh529]

Thanks for the feedback. I was beginning to wonder if anyone read the fed anymore.

I took the roster down to 30 guys. Akiyama is still one of my personal favorites in the fed, and I just couldn't get things to click with Samoa Joe. Him and Joe were "friends" dating back to an angle from almost a year ago. This I think will get me where I need to go for November, and shakes things up a bit.

I am thinking one of the reasons my federation was getting so complicated was because I just have too many people. The smaller TV shows help focus on just a few angles, which I think going forward will make it a lot easier for people to read .

I'm going to attempt to post the Richmond results tonight.

Number-One-Contenders-Triangle Match

Rating: ** 3/4

The opening match between these three X-division stars was put together in
order to name a contender to Bobby Fish's X-Division title, but in the end the

when the action hit the floor.

x Lynn beat D. Malenko via a top-rope Frankensteiner in 0:17:11
Rating: **** 1/4

As Jerry Lynn's music hit, it was apparent that word has leaked to the internet
about his eventual departure from the USWA. The fans gave him a 2 minute standing
ovation when they announced his name. Fans in the crowd also chanted "please
don't go."

Lynn's mystery opponent ended up being "The Shooter" Dean Malenko, who would be
making his first every appearance in a USWA ring. Lynn asked to make it a 2/3
falls match and Downtown Bruno made the call to fulfill his request. The match
went back and forth with the crowd clearly on the side of Jerry Lynn. Lynn
got caught in the Texas Cloverleaf after Malenko hit an excellent belly to back
suplex, into the spinning toe hold. Once he had done the damage to Lynn's knee,
Malenko put him in the Texas Cloverleaf and got the first fall.

In the second fall Lynn scored the pin after dodging a front face lock attempt
by Malenko. He then nailed Malenko with a springboard dropkick and followed it
up with a springboard leg drop. The pin came out of nowhere, and Malenko seemed
to be annoyed that we were even at two falls apiece.

The third and final fall went to Jerry Lynn as the crowd once again erupted.
Malenko tried to wear down Lynn with a northern lights suplex and once again
went for the Texas Cloverleaf, but Lynn was able to kick off Malenko, and
with an injured knee, placed Malenko on the top rope and hit him with an amazing
top rope frankensteiner to get the win. Once again the crowd went crazy for
Lynn and broke out into a "please don't go" chant.

[Ravens rules]: No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match
Raven pinned Chad Collyer after a power bomb in 0:20:43.
Rating: **** 3/4

Ravens rules were made clear to the fans that it would be a no countout, no
DQ, falls count anywhere in the arena, and anything goes! Chad came to the ring
in jeans and taped fists. He knew what his night was going to be in for, and it
didn't take long for this one to get wild.

The match went into the audience right from the beginning. Collyer dodged a
hot shot and hit Raven with a lariat on the concrete that made everyone cringe.
Raven was busted open early in the match and was a bloody mess. Collyer was
given a baseball bat from a fan in the crowd and had no hesitations using it
on the former heavyweight champion.

Raven would eventually get his hands on the ringside bell and a staple gun, but
wouldn't be able to get a pin on Collyer. Raven let out his frustrations by
shoving the official Mickey Jay, but Jay wouldn't stand for it and shoved Raven
right back. The time limit would go onto expire, but with the crowd enjoying
this brawl, Mickey granted them five more minutes.

It looked like the end of Raven when Collyer hit him with a spinebuster to the
concrete, and then smashed him with the ringside bell, but out of nowhere Raven
was able to get his composure and nail Chad with a powerbomb to the floor.
This knocked Chad out cold and Raven got the victory.

A dazed and confused Raven held out his arms and smiled as he wore a crimson
mask. The victory went to Raven, but the "he's hardcore" chants were saved for
Chad Collyer as he made his way back to the locker room a beaten man.

Rating: *** 1/2
[Karl Anderson interfered against Latin Lover.]
[Vampiro interfered against Jun Akiyama.]

A wild match as The Cornio Family attempts to earn their money by eliminating
Latin Lover from the equation of tonights Main Event. Jun did exactly what
most of the experts thought he would he, that was match Latin Lovers speed,
with pure forearm smashing power. For ever asi moonsault that was attempted by
The Latin Lover, it was met with a running forearm smash or a death valley
driver, or fisherman buster.

After about six minutes of pure power combinations looked to have ended Latin
Lovers night, his com rad Vampiro ran down to the ring to attempt to distract
Vampiro, but Corino unleashed the family on Vampiro as Karl Anderson and
Giant Bernard successfully eliminated Vampiro from getting involved.

Akiyama hit his exploder finisher and got the victory over Latin Lover. After
the match Corino gave Akiyama the "thumbs down" sign from the entrance ramp,
signifying for Akiyama to make sure The Lover wouldn't be a problem tonight.

Jun Akiyama pushed the ref out of the ring, and hit his new signature move.
A spin-out powerbomb maneuver which caused The Latin Lover to be taken to
the back on a stretcher. We have seen a whole new Jun Akiyama, as he looks
more like the man who dominated the USWA while defending the heavyweight title
over thirteen times just two years ago.

Bobby Fish won via default.

Bobby Fish came to the ring to taunt the fans. Fish said that it looks like
tonight would be another day off for the X-Division champion because the
USWA were unable to get a clear winner in the opening match tonight.

Fish told the crowd that they didn't deserve to see him in action because he
doesn't perform in second rate cities.

As Bobby Fish continued to incite a riot in Richmond, CM Punk came out to the
ring and claimed that he would take on Bobby Fish any day of the week. Fish
told CM Punk to move to the back of the line because he wasn't about to
defend the title in this hell hole. Punk warned Fish that he couldn't dodge
everyone in the X-Division, and eventually he's going to meet his match.

Our main event was as interesting as we all thought it would be. Ahmed Johnson
was introduced as the head referee in the match and he quickly grabbed the mic
and notified the crowd that Latin Lover was NOT in the building, as he was
headed to a nearby hospital to get checked out after Jun Akiyama "eliminated"
him.

Konnan was introduced first and the crowd went CRAZY. It was obvious that the
fans in attendance were expecting to see a new heavyweight champion crowned, and
they have accepted Konnan to be the man to do it!

As the Heavyweight Champion was introduced, a part of the crowd also went wild
for him, but it seems the tide was turning. The fans were mostly behind Konnan
and wanted to see him win his first heavyweight title.

After the first lockup, out from the back comes what some felt was a ghost! But
a former major player in the USWA, Brian Christopher walked down to ringside
as the fans looked confused as to why he was there. Ahmed Johnson gave him the
stare down immediately. As the match went back and forth, out came VAMPIRO to the
ringside area. At this time Ahmed took to the outside and warned both Christopher
and Vampiro that any interference would get them sent to the back.

The first one to get involved was Vampiro who attacked Konnan when he was
sent to the outside. Vampiro found a baseball bat under the ring and threw
it into Taz, but Taz refused to use it at first. He would later go on to
beat the living hell out of Konnan with it.

The big surprise of the night was when Taz locked Konnan in the Tazmission
after a failed dropkick from the second rope. Christopher ran in the ring
and broke up the submission. Ahmed got physical and hit Christopher with the
Pearl River Plunge as the fans went wild! What Ahmed failed to see was a
still bloody Raven running down to the ring and tossing a folding chair to Konnan.
Konnan attempted to wrap it around Taz's head, but a duck down move, kick to the
mid section and then successfully grabbing the chair and using it himself earned Taz
the victory and another title defense.

After the match Taz asked for them to cut his music. He told everyone in the
audience he didn't care if the fans cheered him or booed him, he was still the
USWA Heavyweight champion. He said that he doesn't care who is put in front of
him, he's willing to step in the ring and beat the living hell out of anyone
that thinks they've got the guts to take this title away from him!

Backstage Notes:

A wild show from Richmond, VA. We saw Taz somehow leave the building STILL the
USWA Heavyweight Champion. Vampiro, Raven, and the RETURN of Brian Christopher?
We don't know what Christopher was doing in the building tonight, but I'm sure
we will find out when we get to Velocity.

Konnan had another failed attempt at the title, and I'd assume it is safe to
say that he won't be getting another shot at the title this year. Although
Latin Lover wasn't a factor in the match, Vampiro, one of Konnans historic
rivals was still at ringside doing anything he could to keep Konnan from
realizing him dream.

Jun Akiyama turned a lot of heads tonight. It might have just been the perfect
storm to have him in the ring against an aerial specialist like Latin Lover, but
he looked more powerful than ever. His new move looked vicious and we are hoping
to get more information on some of the moves he has added to his arsenal and
put on display tonight.

Bobby Fish somehow escaped the night without defending his x-division title.
Frank Morell has had a history of odd decisions as a referee, and tonights
"triple countout" is just another one in the long line of questionable calls.
Then to decide not to have Fish defend the title, when he is obligated to do
so has a lot of people in the front office wondering what is going on.

Not only did Raven get a pin on Chad Collyer in a brutal hardcore match at
the beginning of the night, he caused controversy as he threw the chair in the
ring to Konnan in an attempt to get the title off of Taz. Raven has been a thorn
in the side of Taz all year, and with his victory tonight, one can only assume
he is going to make a claim as the new number one contender. Even after his loss
to Taz at SuperBrawl, Raven refuses to go away.

The USWA travels to Hartford, CT this week as we will have two weeks of Challenge
and Velocity TV. We do know that this will be Jerry Lynn's final show and a lot
of things have been planned to send him off in style. Lynn, who had an amazing
match tonight, will get to pick his DREAM MATCH as next weeks Velocity main event.

We will also try to get to the bottom of the return of Brian Christopher, and
all the ramifications from tonights big show in Richmond Virginia.

USWA Challenge
Hartford, CT
May 12th, 2003
Airs: May 17th, 2003
Announcers: DAVE Brown and Scott Hudson

Hudson and Brown run down the show.

(As the camera zooms into the announce table, Hudson and Brown are all smiles.)

Dave Brown shuffles through tonight's lineup card and tells that fans that
we have reached the Spring time here in he USWA, and things are getting hot
in a hurry!

Hudson says that Richmond Virginia probably hasn't seen action like the
USWA gave them over the weekend since Matt Kenseth's victory at the speedway
last September!

Dave Brown laughs and says that in the end TAZ is still the USWA heavyweight
champion, but the return of Brian Christopher has everyone in the USWA buzzing!

Hudson says that Brian Christopher hasn't been seen in the USWA for over a year,
and while pictures on the screen showed some of the action from the heavyweight
title match, his tossing the ringbell in for Konnan ended up backfiring and
giving a weapon for Taz to use, and led to him getting the pin on Konnan.

Dave Brown tells the fans that today on Challenge we have a huge main event.
Chad Collyer teams with the Island Boys to take on Raven and The New Bolsheviks.

Hudson details the "RAVENS RULES" match that occurred in Richmond and how Chad
Collyer earned a lot of respect from some of the guys in the locker room for his
willingness to take the fight to Raven.

Brown says we will talk to the X-Division champion Bobby Fish, and Christopher
Daniels and get word on all the fallout from Richmond.

Hudson also says that a big singles match with Low-Ki and Dean Malenko has been
signed for today, which he is looking forward to.

Brown throws it to break but tells the fans not to go away because a Velocity
rematch between King Fale and Karl Anderson will be coming up shortly!

Raven and The New Bolsheviks comment on last weeks results

(Scott Hudson tells the fans that he will be joined in a minute by Raven,
but not to miss USWA action coming up at the Mid-South coliseum on Sunday night,
May 25th. All the USWA superstars plan on being in attendance, with a huge
lineup that will be announced shortly.)

Raven makes his way to the announcers area with Alex and Vladimir. Scott
Hudson opens things up congratulating him on his victory over the weekend
against Chad Collyer.

Raven tells Hudson to take a good look at his black eye, and his stitched up
lip. Raven pulls up his shirt and shows Hudson a bandage around his ribs.
Raven explains that those wounds will take months to heal, but to become a
champion, a man must continue on that path of destiny. With a victory over
a young up and comer like Chad Collyer, that patch continues for himself.

Scott then mentions last week on Challenge, the Bolsheviks loss in the 2-1
match against Chad.

Raven stares at Alex Kozlov and explains that he doesn't think Alex is
grasping the winning concept that he demands. Kozlov fell victim to a
submission maneuver, and he tapped. That's unacceptable. Tonight the odds
will be even because Raven is stepping into the main event to make this a six
man tag match, and he won't accept anything less than a victory.

Vladimir grabs the mic from Hudson and in broken english taunts the Island
Boys for not winning the championship titles. Vlad says he will prove tonight
why they should be the number one contenders.

Karl Anderson pinned King Fale with the Stun Gun in 0:09:55.
Rating: ***
[Trinity interfered against Karl Anderson.]

In a rematch from this past weekends Velocity, Anderson and Fale went at it
once again. Tonight we got a pinfall for Anderson when a missed flying forearm
from Fale turned into a Stun Gun finisher by Anderson. Karl hit his finisher
earlier in the match, but Trinity was able to put Fale's foot on the rope.
Steve Corino chased Trinity back to the locker room, and with nobody helping
from the outside Anderson gets the win.

Cornio & Bobby Fish talk about Steve Bradley and CM Punk.

(Dave Brown recaps the fluke triple countout in the x-division match in Richmond
and then introduces X-Division champion Bobby Fish.)

Dave mentions that he must be well rested after getting the night off over the
weekend. Brown suggest that he is dodging opponents.

Corino butts in before Fish could say a word and defends his client, saying
that the thought that Fish is dodging any competition is ridiculous!

Fish tells Corino to calm down. Bobby then says that he had nothing to do
with the ruling of the referee. If he knew he wasn't going to wrestle that
night, he wouldn't even of shown up in Richmond!

Brown tells him that referee Frank Morell is once again under suspension, and
that he has a history of "interesting" calls, just ask Christopher Daniels!

Corino says that Frank Morell is one of the most senior officials in the
company, and that his license is in good standing in the state of Virginia!

Steve Corino says that he has a great idea. CM Punk and Steve Bradley have
been begging for a title shot, and he has a great tag team in Karl Anderson
and Giant Bernard who haven't been able to get REAL competition since they
got here! Corino suggest a tag match. CM Punk and Bradley vs Bad Intentions.
If Punk and Bradleys team get the victory, whoever scores the pinfall can get
a title shot against Fish on Sunday night May 25th at the Mid South Coliseum!

Dave Brown immediately suspicious of the intentions of Cornio asks what is in
it for him?

Corino suggest that if Anderson/Bernard get the victory, they will go on to
face the tag team champions!

Dave Brown actually thinks that would be a great match and says that they will
wait to hear word from President Dundee to see if they can get that match signed.

Low-Ki pinned Dean Malenko with the Ki Crusher in 0:10:52.
Rating: ***
[Trinity interfered against Dean Malenko.]

An excellent match between Low-Ki and Malenko who have very similar hard
hitting and submission style wrestling maneuvers. Low-Ki got the victory
after hitting the Ki-Crusher on the jr. heavyweight legend. The real story
after the match was when Chad Collyer came down to the ring to help Malenko
up and Low-Ki gave a hard stare to Collyer. Collyer avoided a confrontation
tonight, but it was a surreal moment as the former Global Champion attempted
to strike a little fear in Chad Collyer.

Christopher Daniels announces a move to the X-Division.

(Scott Hudson comments on Christopher Daniels victory over Low-Ki in the cage
in Richmond, and that tonight we are going to learn about his future.)

Hudson brings out Christopher Daniels to a nice ovation from the crowd.
Hudson tells Daniels that 2003 didn't start off well for him. A loss of the
Global title, and then the injury from Trinity and Ki that put him on the shelf
for a bit, but redemption over Low-Ki is now over and it's back to real
competition.

Daniels says that Scott is exactly correct, Daniels again thanks Trish Stratus
for her help in the feud with Ki and Trinity, but that his focus now is to get
his name back in the mix for championship titles. Daniels says that everybody
comes to the USWA with goal to win a title, make the money that comes with being
the champion, and have their name go down in the history books.

Daniels said that his run as the Global champion was something that nobody can
take away from him, but now he sees the X-Division becoming the focus of the
promotion. AJ Styles, Steve Bradley, CM Punk, Bobby Fish... some of the best
talent on this roster compete in that division, and now that the proper
paperwork has been submitted, Daniels will be putting his name in the hat
to compete!

Scott Hudson says that watching him compete in the X-Division is going to be
a treat for him and all the fans of the USWA!

The Island Boys (OG Ekmo and Kimo) and Chad Collyer defeated
The New Bolsheviks (Vladimir Kozlov and Alex Koslov) and Raven when Kimo pinned
A. Koslov with the Kimo-Therapy in 0:10:14.
Rating: *** 3/4

Koslov once again is pinned in the ring on Challenge, this time by Kimo of
the Island Boys. As Collyer and the Boys celebrated their victory, Raven
attacked Alex Koslov in the ring. Vladamir stepped in and pushed Raven away
from his tag partner. It looks like the alliance between the Bolsheviks and
Raven ended tonight on challenge, but that seems to be par for the course when
it comes to Raven making friends.

Television Notes:

Velocity this week will have a main event of Jerry Lynn taking on an opponent of his choosing for his final match in the USWA. Velocity will be dedicated to one of the most respected men in the company this week.

The 5th USWA Mid South Coliseum show is being promoted on tv as a large show. We should have an idea of the main event after Velocity this week. Although a lot of folks are looking forward to the Mid-South show, June 8th is another big date on the calendar as our first major show since the Super Brawl PPV will be held.

During the Velocity tapings Brian Christopher had his first match back against AJ Styles. The match went 30 minutes and obviously was too long for TV. Highlights of the match will be shown on Velocity, and you won't believe the actions of AJ Styles.

All the big names of the USWA will be on hand for Velocity this week. Konnan, Ahmed Johnson, the Heavyweight champion Taz and Jun Akiyama will be in action as well!

[JoshiQ]

I really enjoyed the event in Richmond. Really good stuff, and I was pretty surprised Taz was still able to walk out of there with the title.

This kind of has a mid '90 ECW feel to it which I am really into.

I'm hoping Dean Malenko isn't turning into a job boy. I'd love to see some sort of push for him.

Story lines continue to grow, and the stuff with Raven definitely has my attention. Keep up the good work, I'll be reading.
