Miavia: Tonight, in front of the Capital Centre, the Pearl River Powers are looking to extend their win record to TWO! And we're going to do it. Tell 'em how it is Ahmed!

Johnson: ADRIEN BLADES! If you so much as THINK about coming down to ringside, I've got a 2-x-4 and 20 bucks saying Cornette will have to drag your unconscious body OUT OF THE ARENA! Blizzard, you're going down!

Rocky shakes his head as the two men leave.

Shawn and Diesel are backstage getting last minute instructions from Sensei.

Diesel: Well, I decided Shawn's done enough talking for a while, so I'm gonna comment this time.. and since I'm not a big talker anyway, I just wanna wish the Pearl River Powers good luck.. because they're gonna NEED it!! Let's roll!!

'Pearl River Powerhouse' begins to play and the fans look to the runway! Through the curtains comes Ahmed Johnson and Rocky Maivia! With them is Brutus Beefcake.... the Ultimate Warrior... and Corey Major! Corey is wearing a brand, spanking new red and black Pearl River Powers t-shirt under his leather jacket.

The fans cheer as the PRP get up into the ring.

"Bad Company" blasts through the arena, and fireworks go off above the entrance as the Dudes with Attitude strut through the curtains!! The crowd cheers wildly as they head towards the ring led by Sensei, and they slap hands on both sides along the way. At ringside Shawn struts a bit before getting up onto the apron, and Diesel holds the ropes open for him, then steps over. They walk back and forth for a minute, playing to the fans, and then they remove their jackets with "Attitude" on the back and hand them to Sensei standing near the announcer's table, and then fling the wraparound sunglasses into the crowd!

Ahmed walks over and says a few words to Diesel... then they shake hands. Rocky and Shawn shake hands as Ahmed and Diesel continue to talk.

Bobby: Ross, are there any swamps in Oklahoma?

Ross: No!

Bobby: Yes there is! It's called Tulsa!

Ross: BOBBY!

Shawn and Rocky start is off. Rocky circles Shawn, staying close to the mat and ready. Shawn extends his leg and kicks at Rocky, then dives in with a forearm... and another! Rocky is reeling as Shawn elbow smashes him on top of the head... then sweeps with his foot and takes Rocky down to the mat.

Shawn gets down and grapevines Rocky's legs with his own and twists him up.

Sting is picked up on the cameras standing at the top of the runway, watching the match. he seems to be making mental notes as to what he sees.

Shawn releases the legs... then drives his knee into Rocky's ribs. HBK stands up and ELBOWDROPS Rocky in the back... and AGAIN... and AGAIN!!! Rocky reaches out for a tag, but Shawn keeps the ring cut in half and drops down for a DROP TOE HOLD...

Rocky LEAPS UP OVER IT! He kicks at Shawn, who is down ont he mat... then does a dive... AND TAGS IN AHMED!!!

Ahmed comes in with a seris of punches and chops that throw Shawn off balance. Ahmed grabs Shawn by the throat and sends him for the ride to Rocky's corner....he hits the turnbuckles hard and Rocky grabs his head.... and DROPS him down with it, clotheslining Shawn across the top rope!!!

Pillman: LOOK AT THAT!! DOUBLE TEAMING!! YES!

Shawn bounces back into ring where Ahmed is waiting for him. BELLY TO BACK SUPLEX INTO A BRIDGE!!! The ref dives down... one.... KICKOUT!

JR: PRP with an impressive combination! Very NICE!

Pillman: Where's the Blizzard? HE'S GOING DOWN! HE'S GOING DOWN!

Shawn manages to get up quicker then Ahmed from the pinfall combination. Shawn boots Ahmed... then KNEEDROPS him down and wraps on the leglock. Ahmed blasts free and pulls himself to his feet. Shawn kips up... INTO A BODYSLAM!!!

Ahmed then CHOPS Shawn across the chest... whips him HARD to a neutral corner... and rushes in with a CLOTHESLINE in the corner! Ahmed looks to the fans and SIGNALS FOR THE PLUNGE!!! The fans CHEER!!
