QUEEN OF THE RING REPORT

Dok Hendriks is seen standing with his back to the ring, up in the upper levels of the Auditorium Arena in Denver.

Dok: Hello wrestling fans Smilin' Dok here... up in the nose bleed sections to remind you that Queen of the Ring is this coming Sunday... August the 3rd! But standing just off to my right... it's WWF Women's Champion, Roxanne!

Roxanne steps up, holding the World Title over her shoulder.

Dok: Roxanne, congratulations on your successful return to the ring, and title defense. What's the story on that?

Roxanne: Thanks Dok. Well, it hurt. When that match began, I could tell Wild Chylde was going easy on me. That's why I turned it up a bit. I was going to Frankenstein her off the top rope... and that woke her up. It could have cost me the match, but I would rather lose that way, then to someone that was hardly trying.

Dok: Your leg hurt you during the bout?

Roxanne: Yes it did, Dok. The doctors say that I did not reinjure myself, but the stress was very high. I'm glad I am sitting out of the Queen of the Ring. Summerslam is only a month away, and I've got to be in top form for that.

Dok: Any news as to who your next defense will be against?

Roxanne: I've got to wait for the rankings to come up... but one name that I'd like to face is Lady Tyr. She beat Mabel, and that's not an easy thing to do. She's pretty deserving of it. I'd like to face whoever wins the Queen of the Ring, too. In fact... Dok... would it be okay if I sat down at the table and did some color commentary at the Queen of the Ring?

Dok: I can't imagine anybody that's not blind minding!

Dok looks to the camera as they both smile.

Dok: Let's run down the card quickly for Queen of the Ring! Valetia Von Strahden against Heart Attack.

Roxanne: VVS is a big loner in the WWF. Nothing wrong with that. But I think the Femme Fatales made a big mistake messing with her for apparently no reason. Heart Attack... well, if Wild Chylde or Venus doesn't win this thing... she might!

Dok: Venus will face Lady Tyr!

Roxanne: Pure power match! With Paulina Power out of the sport for a while, these two are the strongest ladies around!

Dok: Starr Blaze against Susannah Cecily Helmsley!

Roxanne: Starr received a little criticism on Superstars that I may not entirely agree upon. I'd say she's taken things too far on occasion, but let's not get down on her for it. Helmsley? There's not much to say about her. She complained about being in the back-seat of the Network, but I wonder what's going on with her in Taylor Tech!

Dok: And finally... Wild Chylde and Gold-Dust.

Roxanne: One of my best friends against one of my most HATED enemies! Wild Chylde is going to give Gold-Dust a little taste of what will happen to her at Summerslam!

Dok: Wild Chylde is the current queen. We all remember last year, when it was a Royal Rumble match... you and her worked very well together. In fact, that was the start of your friendship.

Roxanne: I'll be at ringside offering her some of that friendship again this coming Sunday. And just because I've got a head-set on, doesn't mean I can't get up and rock some heads if people try to get involved!

Dok: Roxanne, thanks for helping me with this Queen of the Ring report. Good luck to you!

Roxanne: Thanks Dok!

Dok: Folks... Queen of the Ring... this Sunday... DON'T MISS IT!

CHAOTIC COREY MAJOR

A camera picks up a recording studio from the other side of the mixing board. A technicians hand comes up and makes some minor adjustments over the plethora of buttons and nobs. Through the thin glass on the other side, Corey Major is shown lifting up an Ampeg speaker into it's stack, then putting the power-head on top and plugging in a phone jack cable.

Corey turns to the camera when he realizes it's on.

Corey: Hey dudes! What's goin' on? Check it out.... we're just about to start cuttin' some clips for our FIRST music video! Sabrina has brought in some of the finest producers and cineme... cimena...PHOTO-DUDES that money can buy!

Corey takes the cable's end and holds a 9 volt battery to it to test it. Satisfied, he tosses the battery aside with a small crash.

Corey: Well... there's lots of things we're preppin' for here. But back in the ol' Wrestling world, there's lots of things, too. First... and FOREMOST... we got the weddin' invitations almost ready. You'll be gettin' yours soon. It's gonna be one helluva reception party afterwards, and it's gonna ROCK! So check for your invites soon, dudes!

Corey: I guess next on the list is that offer I heard from Raven. This cat wants me to join a stable? With him? Look man... the guy can wrestle... and he's pretty good at it too. But after Superstars? I ain't no fan of Vader or anything, but that was a bit rough, dude. And the ICING on the cake? What ya did to my BEST MAN! Me and the Hitman are more then just teacher an' student. We've become FRIENDS. An' friends don't let FRIENDS get HURT!

Corey picks up his bass, and plugs the cord into it, then props it against the amp stack.

Corey: I ain't sayin'... 'Raven, I'm comin' for ya' or anything like that. That's never been my style. But your little offer ain't even BEIN' considered, man. An' if you try to run afoul of the Hitman while the Big Bad Wolf is nearby... I'LL GOBBLE YOU UP like you was the three little PIGS! Bret can take care of himself... but I'll be there just in case he needs it.

Corey thinks for a moment.

Corey: In fact... hey Templeman! Get on the horn dude. Book me passage to Raw! (Corey looks back to the camera) I'll be watching that match... from backstage.... but my eyes will be there. And if there's trouble.... so will my BODY! And then... CHAOS... WILL ENSUE!!!!

Corey tilts his head toward the camera quickly in a friendly gesture...

Corey: Later dudes!

JR: Taped earlier today... Corey Major could be in the building!

Pillman: He already is! He was watching OUR backs in that last match!

JR: He'll be backstage watching our main event. Folks... it's the Unified World Tag Team title bout! Let's hear from the combatants!
