Suddenly "Gimmie The Mic" by Limp Bizkit hits and out walks UWF Owner Gravedigger to the ring. Gravedigger is handed a mic as he turns to the crowd.)
Gravedigger: Welcome Ladies and Gentlemen. I'm sure you're all confused as to what all of this is about. You're wondering why this fed suddenly popped up and why we're having a PPV to start it all. Well, I'd like to thank the forums for Innovators of Wrestling for hyping up this show to the point that we sold out the place.
(Some random fan hollers out from the crowd and can be heard since the crowd is silent.)
Fan: I'm People's King on iowrestling.net!
(Gravedigger smiles in the direction the voice came from.)
Gravedigger: Sure you are.
(Gravedigger winks at the guy before turning back to the crowd.)
Gravedigger: Now, this is Ultimate Wrestling Federation and as you all know, the name of the PPV you are attending or watching at home for those of you doing so is called Genesis. Genesis means beginning and this is a new beginning for the world of wrestling. You guys hear the other day on TV and read in the newspaper about Vince McMahon's WWE being bought out by an anonymous individual, right? Well, that individual was...ME!
(A bull**** chant starts up but slowly dies out when Gravedigger raises his hand to the crowd for silence.)
Gravedigger: You don't believe me? You will in a minute, but hear me out first. You guys remember when wrestling was really great? You remember when you were as giddy as school girls when it was Monday night? Or Thursday night? Do you remember when it was popular to be made fun of for being a wrestling fan? And do you remember WHEN that time period was? I do, it was the mid-to-late 90s. What about wrestling made it so great to make all those things occur? I'll tell you what it was...the Monday Night Wars between WCW's Nitro and WWF's RAW. That's right, I said WWF. **** the pandas. Those hippy-looking leaf chewers can kiss this wrestling fan's ass!!
(The crowd cheers loudly.)
Gravedigger: Yeah, well, I'd like to introduce you great fans to my two newest employees for Ultimate Wrestling Federation...Vince McMahon and Eric Bischoff!
(The big screen splits with a video for both men on it and a remixed version of both of their entrance themes put together plays. Suddenly, the curtains part and the FOR REAL Vince McMahon and Eric Bischoff walk out from the back. The crowd goes insane when they see them, realizing Gravedigger was telling the truth. The two men slowly walk down the ramp and they walk up the ring steps and climb into the ring. They walk over to Gravedigger and shake his hand, thanking him for this opportunity. Gravedigger greets both men and then turns back to the crowd.)
Gravedigger: Now, despite being ecstatic at seeing me telling the truth, you're probably still wondering what in the hell is going on. Well, see...the thing is...Vince was too stubborn to make things as good as they were back in the 90s. He never wanted to take the chance to give WCW a chance. Well, that's all over now because I've bought everything and everyone affiliated with WWF. That includes wrestlers' contracts. Yes, I now have in my office, the contracts of every current WWF Superstar, plus many wrestlers that weren't under WWF's contract. Who those people are, you will find out as we go along week by week. My goal to purchase WWF is to recreate a competitive atmosphere. Nitro vs. RAW all over again. Bischoff here will be heading up the Nitro brand, while Vince will be heading up the RAW brand, of course. I won't explain how, but the shows will be unpredictable. Yes, even the members of Innovators of Wrestling's forums will not know. No rumor sites will know ahead of time what will go on because I will keep an airtight seal on the results. Now, even though I have bottomless pockets, it's time for a commercial break...yes on a PPV, so quit your whining. I bought out every other organization and then closed them so this is all you have to watch. Don't make me buy out all the other shows on TV and satellite! When UWF Genesis returns, we'll have the Lottery drawing to see what show each superstar will go to.
**Commercial Break**
(UWF Genesis returns with Vince and Eric standing at podiums with a huge lottery bin between them. A lovely woman is currently spinning it as we wait for Eric to draw the first name. The commentators inform us that Eric won with a coin toss during the commercial break the right to draw first. The lottery goes on with huge surprises as to who would be on which show and who the new superstars are to join the WWF crew. Here below are the two rosters after the drawing.)

(Gravedigger, still standing in the ring, lifts the mic up.)
Gravedigger: There you have it folks, the rosters for RAW and Nitro. Now, we have a special surprise for you tonight. It's a match. It is also the last match in which we will see two WWF titles defended. A unification match. Right after this upcoming commercial break, you will see the World champion, Chris Benoit, take on the WWE Champion, Eddie Guerrero. The winner will be able to have the right to say they were the last champ of WWF.
**Commercial Break**
WWE Title and World Title Unificiation match
Eddie Guerrero vs. Chris Benoit
(The ring has been cleared out and is ready for the two wrestlers to face off. Due to a coin flip, Eddie has to come out first and the crowd is pumped up as he comes down in another of his awesome rides. Next Benoit comes out to a huge ovation, but still has a serious look on his face anyway.
The match is one of the greatest matches ever seen on television, but what more could you expect in one of the biggest matches and with so much on the line while on top of that, the two possibly greatest wrestlers ever...in one match? The match goes back and forth with both men getting tons of near falls, both men making each other nearly tap out, and both men becoming more and more desperate nearly cheating on several occasions...but deciding against it for the sake of the match. Finishers are hit and kicked out of. Benoit does the multiple German suplexes while Eddie hits the multiple...regular...suplexes. The match ends when Eddie rolls up Benoit, but Eddie slips and accidentally uses the tights. The referee doesn't notice this and hands Eddie both titles. Benoit gets up with a look of disgust on his face. Eddie apologizes over and over and explains to Benoit that it was an accident. Finally Benoit, after staring at Eddie for a while, extends his hand and they shake. Benoit pulls Eddie in for an embrace and the show cuts to the final commercial break.)
Winner: Eddie Guerrero (by pinfall)
**Commercial Break**
(The show comes back from the last commercial break of the evening and this time Vince McMahon is standing in the ring with a microphone.)
Vince: I'm going to make this short and sweet. I would like for my son-in-law, HHH, to get out here right now to the ring. RIGHT NOW!
(HHH's music hits and he makes his way down to the ring with a confused look on his face. He finally makes it to the ring and walks up to Vince.)
Vince: Now, first before I tell you what I called you out here for, keep in mind that Gravedigger told me to do this. Don't let this affect our relationship or your relationship with my daughter, Stephanie.
(HHH is getting even more confused and wants to know what it is.)
Vince: I've been instructed to inform you that there's a new superstar on RAW. One who wasn't in the lottery, but was picked by Gravedigger to join the roster. And that person is a friend of yours who'd like to meet you. Come on out...GOLDBERG!
(Goldberg's music hits and HHH is shocked. He starts shaking his head and yelling no. He grabs Vince by the collar and starts shaking him. HHH stops and looks back at the entrance as the fireworks and sparks flare up at the entrance. Goldberg bounces through breathing smoke with a determined look on his face. When the sparks and fireworks die down, there are two men behind them: Gravedigger and a referee. The referee follows Goldberg down to the ring and Goldberg climbs in. HHH is going crazy trying to figure out what's going on here. Gravedigger nods at Vince who gets back on the mic.)
Vince: This is an official match.
(HHH says WHAT?!? to Vince who shrugs and slides out of the ring as Goldberg charges at the distracted HHH. HHH turns around to be cut in half by Goldberg. HHH lays on the mat clutching his stomach. Goldberg leaps a couple of feet towards to the nearby ropes and roars into the camera at ringside. He turns back to HHH with a grin on his face. He grabs HHH by the hair and picks him up off the mat. HHH lazily swings at Goldberg but misses. Goldberg slams HHH's head under his arm and flings his arm around his head. Goldberg looks around out at the crowd and then at Gravedigger. Gravedigger nods and Goldberg hoists HHH into the air, walks around with him and stops in the middle of the ring. He leaps up and jackhammers HHH into the center of the ring. The referee slides into the ring and into position as Goldberg covers HHH for the three count. Goldberg's music hits as he bounces up. He walks around the ring roaring and growling at everyone before finally jumping through the ropes onto the outside. He slowly backs his way up the ramp and stands at the top beside Gravedigger and Vince McMahon. Gravedigger has the mic.)
Gravedigger: Cut the music. Hey HHH!
(The music stops and eventually HHH turns over and sits up, looking at Gravedigger, Goldberg, and Vince.)
Gravedigger: It's gonna be Goldberg vs. HHH. The winner of the match stays on RAW, the loser packs their bags and sits at home until I say they can come back. The loser will be barred from the arena and will be arrested if he comes within 500 yards of the arena. Have fun!
(HHH gets all pissed off as the three men walk to the back. HHH is wrecked from that spear and jackhammer from Goldberg. How can he be ready for that again on Monday? Gravedigger stops and turns around. He slaps his forehead.)
Gravedigger: DUH! Stupid me. I think it's best to inform you, so as to avoid any confusion, that you guys just had that match. Yeah, that's right, HHH. YOU'RE FIRED!!
(The crowd is stunned as "Gimmie The Mic" by Limp Bizkit hits the speakers. The crowd is stunned because one of the best in the business, HHH, has officially been fired. And since there's no rivals to UWF, he's just SOL...out of a job. Vince stands there staring at HHH and gulps. Goldberg stands there waving bye bye at HHH. And Gravedigger just stands there smiling.)
Gravedigger: Cue the copyright info.
(The copyright info comes up on the screen after Gravedigger says that and the show goes off the air.)
Next week:
On RAW, the RAW World Title tournament starts up. Who will face who? Who will advance to the second round? How will the tournament work? Will there be any shockers as big as what we saw on UWF Genesis? Tune in to find out!
On Nitro, the Nitro World Title tournament starts up. Who will face who? Who will advance to the second round? How will the tournament work? Will there be any shockers as big as what we saw on UWF Genesis? Tune in to find out!

You guys that gave feedback before can give feedback again if you want to, doesn't matter to me since most of you read it before on IOW. I just thought it was best to post it again to refresh memories and to create new ones for those new to my shows.
