Extreme Rules Intergender Tag Team Matchup
Mike & Maria Kanellis Vs Tommy Dreamer & Beulah
Welcome everybody to another EAM PPV this time under unusual circumstances as we are live from Turkmenistan for the first and possibly the last ever time. We know the jist so let’s not waste anytime and get to the action!. Out come Mike and Maria who receive boos and look at this!. Maria is being carried to the ring on a bed of pillows and feathers like Cleopatra and Mike is the only one carrying her!. He’s struggling already. They enter the ring as out comes Dreamer and Beulah who aren’t the best anymore but are still looking pretty good. Maria dives off the bed and here we go!. Back and forth action in this one and Mike and Maria look pretty good. They take control for the first five minutes and of course this is extreme rules. Couple chair shots to Tommy while Maria beats down Beulah in the ring. This continues on for a while more. They soon fight back with a whip into the steel steps before Dreamer pulls out a table from under the ring but it’s a weird almost broken foreign table. No offence Turkmenistan. Dreamer sets it up but Mike fights back. Beulah and Maria in the ring with a cat fight before a Bronco Buster to Maria. Mike attacks Beulah in the ring disgusting like a coward. Mike just took out Beulah which sends Dreamer going after Mike. Maria tries to choke out Dreamer as they work together to beatdown Beulah and Dreamer putting them on the table set up outside the ring. Maria is gonna dive onto both of them!.
They kick Mike away just in time. They fight back eventually putting Mike on the table and Maria and Beulah back in the ring. Mike kicks him off before Dreamer nails a DDT on the floor!. Beulah goes under the ring and gets something as Dreamer throws Mike into the apron. THAT’S LIGHTER FLUID. BEULAH IS COVERING THE TABLE IN FLUID....NO WAY....SHE LIGHTS THE TABLE ON FIRE OMG. Beulah gets back in the ring with Maria as Mike and Tommy fight on the outside apron. DDT TO MIKE THROU....NO MARIA IS TRYING TO SAVE MIKE....WAIT BAAAM SHE PUSHES DREAMER AND MIKE OFF THE APRON BY ACCIDENT....BAAAAM DREAMER AND MIKE SENT THROUGH THE FLAMING TABLE BY MARIA. HOLY SHIT. EVEN MARIA IS SHOCKED BY THIS AND IS WORRIED AND SCARED FOR MIKE. WAIT FROM BEHIND. BAAAAM BEULAH WITH THE DREAMER DDT TO MARIA....1...2...3....IT’S OVER. Wow what a match and opening to this PPV a damn flaming table!. Dreamer manages to get back in the ring in pain from the fire as they celebrate their victory. Dreamer is getting too old for this shit. Maria actually cares about Mike outside the ring but soon starts slapping his burn marks angry with him!. He just can’t win. We cut away with Maria dragging a burnt Mike up the rampway.
We would like to take this time to offer condolences to the families of Hana, Shad and Supreme at this tough time. EAM’s thoughts are with all of their families at this difficult time.
Running Mate Championship Matchup
Orange Cassidy (c) Vs Velveteen Dream
Up next our first title match of the night. Both men come out getting different reactions. Cassidy much more popular than Dream. The bell rings and here we go. Dream is dressed more conservatively because of the rules of this country. Cassidy also seems much more serious and is having a normal match looking like he’s trying to get this match done and leave!. Of course Dream beat Cassidy in the Symphony of Destruction match recently so he wants revenge. Some comedy spots from both with no armed drags and ranas. Dream with a Dream Machine for a 2, Dream Experience and Cassidy with the Orange Crush. Much more serious match and less comedy. High flying and some signature moves. At the end of the match Dream looks for the elbow but Cassidy moves out the way. JUICE BUSTER....1....2....DREAM HOLDS ONTO IT, ROLLS THROUGH...DREAM MAC...NO CASSIDY ROLLS THROUGH.

Up next an old TNA 2005 style match. The creator of the now infamous and used in every match Canadian Destroyer vs one of the all time greats AJ Styles. Back and forth action and both look good. Signature/finishing moves attempted. Styles with a Pele Kick and a future Hall of Famer wherever he goes. Styles with a Fosberry flop and a 450 splash. Petey nails a Canadian Destroyer out of nowhere.....1.....2....STYLES KICKS OUT. In the old days that would have been it but the move has been used so much it’s kicked out of very easily.

Lots of stuff and styles tonight. All promotions across the world coming together for this crisscross connection coalition. Up next an NWA style match. Aaron comes out cutting a promo on EAM and the country he’s in. Extra Talented come out getting the best reaction and here we go. Back and forth action with some slow wrestling and Aaron calling the match himself. Mark with an elbow and Bearhug. Starks with a twisting spinning leg lariat take down. More exchanges of action and this is good exposure for NWA Powerrr and there’s been rumors that in the future maybe NWA/EAM can work together. We already have the world title so might as well. Rumors of EAM buying WWE, TNA and ROH though next season so who knows what’s true. They try to unmask the Mark but just can’t. Solow tries to look for the finish but Aaron but he comes back with the neckbreaker for the 3 count and win!. Aaron does the cartwheel after the match and celebrates with Mark. Could have unmasked Mark but no point because we don’t know who it is and wouldn’t work if it was just a joke.

Scarlett has climbed the top rope and jumps on top of the ladder while Braun is still spinning haha never seen this before!. Scarlett manages to reach inside raking Braun’s eyes stopping him. She then tries to choke him out as Kross spears the ladder into Braun!. Incredible team work. They kiss before Kross goes back to it...BIG BOOT FROM WALTER. He then sets up the ladder in the corner and lays Kross and Braun down next to each other. What the hell is he doing!?. Walter is climbing!. These men are not meant for ladder matches. Walter is standing on top of the ladder no...HE’S LOOKING FOR A HEADBUTT OFF THE TOP...NO....WAIT...BRAUN IS UP SHAKING THE IT. He climbs up with him looking for a superplex!?.

Tag Team Matchup
The Bhangra Knights (Darrell Allen & RJ Singh) Vs Luke & PJ Hawx
Fans are still reeling from our previous match so let’s not waste any time and get to it!. Not the biggest or best match after what we just saw but still fun. Some comedy throughout with Knights looking good getting some good moves in. This feels more like a Pride mitch than a PPV match though. Not every match can be big. Knights with some arm drags and whips for a couple of minutes but Luke with a DDT and PJ with a Driver. Luke and PJ must be emotional to be together in this one. At the end of the match Luke and PJ get the win after a duel dive and must be a nice feeling. They celebrate the win after the match. Not good enough for Knights and who knows this might be the last time we see these teams in EAM.
Singles Matchup - Special Challenge
Samoa Joe Vs ?
Up next another big match contest but we don’t know who the challenger will be. Joe of course a legend and Hall of Famer and wants to win this one. It might be one of his last matches so who knows what will happen. Joe comes out getting a great reaction while we and he awaits the opponent. There’s no music at first and there’s been all kind of rumors going around names like AJ Styles, Necro Butcher, Chris Daniels even Jeff Jarrett!. The arena is silent but who will it be...DUH DUH DUH DUH LOOK IN MY HEART WHAT CAN YOU SEE....OMG IS IT!?. COULD IT BE...IT IS!. CM PUNK HAS ANSWERED THE CHALLENGE!. Think of the legendary feud between these two and the classic trilogy back in ROH it just makes perfect sense. Punk gets out getting a great reaction while Joe looks shocked but also happy and excited. The bell rings and here we go. Back and forth match from both men. Lot of signature/finishing/high flying moves from both men. A good 10 minutes of technical action and submissions measuring each other out. Joe with a back senton and move away after a missed dive. Running forearm through the ropes and a running face wash outside the ring into the barricade. Punk with a Pepsi Twist back in the ring before looking for a Pepsi Plunge off the top rope a move we haven’t seen him do in years....1.....2....NO. Hope the fans know how lucky they are getting this type of match. Punk with an Anaconda Lock but Joe turns it around into a powerbomb, Boston crab and STF...Punk manages to make the ropes. If this is Joe’s last match then what a way to go out.
Joe nails the Muscle Buster for a close 2 count as we are now almost 25 minutes into this match!. Joe looks for another Muscle Buster but Punk reverses into a Tornado DDT....1.....2....NO kick out. This has an old 2005 ROH style feel to it which we don’t get anymore. Punk picks Joe up.....GTS HE GOT IT...1....2....JOE KICKS OUT. Punk looks for another one...JOE REVERSES OUT OF IT. HE GOES BEHIND...COQUINA CLUTCH TO PUNK. THE CHICAGO MADE PUNK IS IN TROUBLE. HE GETS THE ROPES AT 35 MINUTES. I don’t think anyone thought this match would be this long!. Both men back and forth in the ring to cheers from the fans. Irish whip to the corner...HIGH KNEE....RUNNING BULLDOG...1....2...JOE KICKS OUT. Another Irish whip but reversed by Joe into a back body drop....PUNK REVERSES. BAAAAAAM ANOTHER GO TO SLEEP.....COVER....1.....2......NO JOE KICKS OUT. THIS IS CRAZY. PUNK WASTES NO TIME PICKING HIM UP LOOKING FOR A THIRD BUT JOE REVERSES OUT OF IT. ENQUIGIRI KICK TAKES PUNK DOWN AND OUT OF THE RING.....JOE WITH A DIVE THROUGH THE ROPES. He throws Punk into the ring, whips him to the ropes nailing a snap powerslam before sending him in the turnbuckle....BAAAM MUSCLE BUSTER AGAIN.....1.....2......NO AGAIN PUNK KICKS OUT THIS IS AMAZING. Fans chant this is awesome as we reach nearly 45 minutes into this match!. Nobody expected this. These two men have had what under 8 matches against each other? and in ring time of 5/6 hours!. Joe can’t believe it as he charges Punk in the corner with a face wash but Punk moves out the way in time. CM Punk has never defeated Samoa Joe remember that. Joe is stuck in the ropes....BAAAAAM GO TO SLEEP FOR A THIRD AND FINAL TIME.....1.....2.....3 IT’S OVER!. Wow what a match, 47:34. Fans are on their feet cheering for both men and of course the unwritten rule is that you lose your last match if this is it so just in case. Punk celebrates his victory finally defeating Joe as he extends the arm out of respect. We never got to see Joe vs Punk vs Styles vs Daniels but got to see Joe fight them all. Joe slaps away Punk’s hand and hugs him instead which sends the fans crazy. What a match and ending to this career and rivalry. They hug and celebrate together as we cut away. A side of Samoa Joe we’ve never seen before. Usually he’d attack him after the match but not this time.
Singles Matchup
David Finlay III Vs Brian Pillman Jr.
Back and forth action from both men. Gonna be very hard to touch the match we just saw. Fans are still speaking about it. Some good technical and submissions throughout. Both men could have great futures and would love to see them in EAM more. I actually think as a tag team would be a good idea. Pillman with the elbow drop while Finlay using his Dad’s style. Could you imagine a faction with David Finlay, Hornswoggle and Fit Finlay!. Pillman drop for a close 2 count. His Dad of course one of the greatest and most underrated. Shame he wasn’t in the Hall of Fame. It would be an awesome idea to have a Posthumous EAM Hall of Fame so we could get names like Pillman, Benoit and Guerrero in it who knows maybe one day. Both men pretty much cheered evenly. Some good attempts at finishers but not enough. Finlay with a backstabber for a close 2. Finlay continues to throw him around with close falls before Pillman fights back....BAAAM Sleeping Hero German Suplex....cover....1....2....3 it’s over!. Pillman gets the win in this. He celebrates the win after the match as we cut away.
Judo Matchup
Ronda Rousey Vs Nasiba Surkiżewa
Up next is a different kind of match. A Judo match between two Olympians. Nasiba is of course from this country so is the fan favorite. The bell rings and here we go. Lot of throw and take downs. Judo is very different from typical matches. Nasiba takes control actually getting the first round and point as we are in the second. Ronda dominates this time getting the point with the Angle Slam. Third round which is pretty even but sees Ronda looking better with a series of slams and throws. The time is almost up as Ronda nails one final Judo throw and that’s it she gets the win. Ronda gets two rounds. She wins the match but after is not happy with either her place in EAM or her match and attacks her once again but with wrestling moves. This is a side of Ronda we haven't seen in a long time. Maybe she shouldn’t be that nice girl anymore. She celebrates her win but mocks fans on the way out.
Ornate Prime Championship Matchup
Keith Lee (c) Vs Donovan Dijakovic
Up next one of the biggest matches and most anticipated of the night. This is for the Ornate Pride championship and nobody has been able to beat Lee yet so can Donovan?. Of course they have a very long feud that has gone over 5 different promotions now and Donovan is the first man to actually shock and startle Lee. Both men get solid reactions and always put on good matches. First ever time in EAM and here we go!. There’s been rumors that Lee wants to move up the card a little bit and is getting bored of the mid card. Donovan is brand new on the main roster and wants to make an impact and take it from Lee. BACK AND FORTH NON STOP ACTION. SIGNATURE/FINISHING/HIGH FLYING ACTION THROUGHOUT. BAAAM YAKUZA KICK TO LEE...1...NO. Lee with a big boot....1...NO. Left and rights from both men. Donovan with an axe kick. Spinning leg lariat...1...2...Lee kicks out. People have tried to start this way against Lee and it hasn’t worked. Lee rolls outside the ring....DONOVAN WITH A DOUBLE SPRING MOONSAULT TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING RIGHT ONTO LEE. Donovan throws Lee around the ring into the barricade before the crowd. Donovan gets into the ring and looks for a springboard....what is he doing...NO WAAAAH SPRINGBOARD SWANTON BOMB INTO THE CROWD ON LEE. GOOD GOD. Donovan just dived into the second row. Donovan looks for it again....BAAAAAAM SPEAR IN MID AIR. GOOD FUCKING GOD. LEE JUST SPEARED DONOVAN IN MID AIR AFTER A SPRINGBOARD DIVE FROM IN THE RING. THIS IS INSANE ALREADY. Lee throws Donovan back into the ringside area. Lee lays Donovan across the announce table and climbs the top rope but he could get DQ’d here so he has to be careful. This is not a no DQ match. Some fans are shocked at this action because they’ve never seen these two fight before. LEE WITH A TOP ROPE ELBOW THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE...DONOVAN MOVES OUT THE WAY IN TIME. This is crazy. Donovan throws Lee back into the ring. He’s looking for it...BAAAM SPIRIT BOMB TO LEE. Both of these men use the spirit bomb remember....1...2...Lee kicks out.
Fans chant this is awesome and really it just began. Donovan is dominating Lee right now. Donovan takes Lee to the top rope...superplex?...Lee fights it off...DONOVAN WITH HEADBUTTS. NO WAIT....WAAAAAAH FALCON ARROW OFF THE TOP TOPE....GOOD FUCKING GOD. THE RING ALMOST BROKE....COVER....1.....2....NO LEE KICKS OUT.

Donovan just kicked out of Lee’s finisher for the first time ever I believe. Lee goes to the top rope what is he doing now...NO WAAAAY....HE CAN’T DO THIS.....WAAAAAAH MOONSAULT TO DONOVAN. HOW THE HELL CAN A MAN THIS SIZE DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT....1....2...NO. DONOVAN KICKS OUT. Fans can’t believe it either!. Lee picks Donovan up looking for a powerbomb but is struggling...HE CHARGES THE ROPES....WAAAAAAAH LEE JUST POWERBOMBED DONOVAN OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE FLOOR. He could be dead!. Lee runs the ropes....BAAAAM LEE DIVES OVER THE TOP ROPE ONTO DONOVAN OUTSIDE. This is crazy. These men are big doing things like they’re cruserweights. Lee throws him in the ring and goes for the cover...1....2....DONOVAN KICKS OUT. Lee can’t believe it. It would be kind of cool to have at least one new champion especially since were in this country and may never return. So it would go in the records. Lee goes to the corner stomping his foot. Haha what is this. He’s almost mocking Shawn Michaels....SWEET CHIN MUSIC TO DONOVAN.....1....2....NO. Almost mocking and taking a shot at HBK and may even sending a message to him. Lee takes Donovan to the corner looking for something off the top rope.
LEE IS LOOKING FOR THE BBC OFF THE TOP ROPE. DONOVAN REVERSES. DONOVAN GOES BEHIND LEE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING......BAAAAAAAM DONOVAN NAILS THE TOP ROPE SITDOWN POWERBOMB....1......LEE KICKS OUT AT 1.

OH MY GOD WE HAVE A NEW CHAMPION. DONOVAN DIJAK IS CHAMPION. WHAT A MATCH. We thought Punk/Joe was gonna be match of the night but this may have topped it. Donovan becomes the man to stop Lee. At least for now. Donovan celebrates his victory holding the title high and we have made history as this might be the first ever time a title has changed hands in Turkmenistan. Donovan looks so happy after winning. Lee looked great and was a long awesome champion. Hopefully this means Lee can move on to higher pastures now and up the card. Lee and Donovan show respect to each other after the match but don’t hug or shake hands just a nod of the head. Donovan celebrates his victory as we cut away.
Singles Matchup
Mike Quackenbush Vs Austin Aries
More of a comedown after our last match but let’s not waste any time and get to the action. Lot of technical and submissions throughout. Both not as good as they used to be we believe this is a first ever time match. Aries with the reverse elbow and brainbuster. Quack with three Chikara Specials. Lot of back and forth continuous cut on of course it’s not gonna top our previous match. Rewind elbow coming in by Aries for a 2. Quack continues to lock him in strange positions. Quackendriver for a 2 count. It continues on before Aries finally nails a 450 splash for the 3 count and win.
MMA Matchup - Special Challenge
Ken Shamrock Vs Khabib Nurmagomedov
We continue on this show with a different style matchup. The bell rings and here we go. Two different generations and styles. Khabib throws Shamrock around like nothing. Shamrock a legend but not a good as he used to be. 5 minutes per round. Khabib dominates the first with suplexes and submissions attempts but Ken survives going into the second. Shamrock comes out fast beating the crap out of Khabib with hard shots. Shamrock challenged Khabib recently. Khabib fights back with suplexes and takedowns. He locks in a kimura into the chickenwing crossface and that’s it!. Shamrock taps out!. Khabib picks up a nice win and celebrates his win after the fight.

James is really starting to have trouble here breathing from the lack of beer while Otis looks weak. Roode and Tucker have to fight it out. Close falls from both of them.

The Lucha Bros (Pentagon Jr. & Rey Fenix) (c) Vs Colibri Coalition (Rey Mysterio & El Hijo de Rey Misterio)
Fans still reeling from our previous match and here we go. Pretty normal fast back and forth Lucha libre match. High flying, armdrags and ranas. Signature/finishing moves from both team.

EAM World Heavyweight Championship Matchup
Shawn Michaels (c) Vs Triple H
It is now time for our main event of the evening!. A match nobody thought we’d ever see happen again let alone a month or a year ago. Both of these men have been helping younger talent recently. Neither are as good as they used to be but can still go and want to show they can hang with the young lions. Both men come out with Shawn getting the much better reaction. HHH of course is from ‘that place over there’ so he gets some boos. Could you imagine if HHH wins the EAM World Title and takes it back to WWE!. He could pull a WCW and put it in the trash!. That could be the end of EAM but it would damn well be interesting and could start a war between both companies and Melby vs McMahon!. At the end of the day though this really is about a match between old friends and rivalries. HBK walks over to and shakes hands with HHH before standing next to him as the bell rings and here we go!.

Lot of history and feuding between these two. Near 30 years now. Of course we’re in Turkmenistan so it’s like EAM’s Saudi show so we need a big old school style match if we’re doing this more than just tonight.

Why is he doing this. It’s been teased since earlier. Obviously he’s pissed for losing the title but sending a message to Shawn by beating his friends and brothers down. Some fans are even cheering this. The last man in the ring is Shawn who’s pleading with him. What a horrible and shocking ending to this PPV. The perfect old school ending ruined by a younger talent that was helped by DX, How ironic. Lee picks up Shawn like nothing throwing him into the air...BAAAAM THE BBC TO SHAWN LAYS HIM OUT. Lee stands over the entirety of DX. Maybe the first time we’ve ever seen this. He holds the EAM World Title high in the air and that’s what this is about. He’s sick of being the midcarder and wants to become a main event player and what a way to make a statement and impact. He then looks at Shawn before smiling and staring pointing at the Grandslam logo!. Are you kidding me!. Do you think!?. Keith Lee just laid down the challenge to Shawn Michaels for a World Title match at Grandslam!. Holy shit!. Lee was sick of the older guys taking the credit, sick of them taking the limelight and just put it on himself!. The show ends with Lee standing over the body of Shawn while holding his title high while the bodies of DX lay around him. He stopped the DX music, crashed the party and made himself famous!. The sound of shocked silence reigns out as we finally fade to black!.
