(The screen is black. You’re not sure, but you swear you hear some sort of animal noise. You pass it off as nothing and continue to wait for this damn pay per view you spent your hard earned money to order to finally start. But, wait, there’s another one. You’re certain you heard something that time. Then, finally, five words appear across the screen.)

It’s A Jungle Out There

(As the words fade from the screen, you now hear another noise. This time it’s no animal. No, you hear the scratching sound of a needle on a record. “Survival of the Fittest” by Mobb Deep begins to play.)

Whether You’re A Champion

(We see clips of Jean, Darian Blaze, and Death Squad all defending their titles in the ring. We see each hitting signature moves on various opponents. Then we see a shot of Jay Reno and Sudden Death walking down the aisle, Tag Title belts firmly secured around their waists. Then a shot of Darian Blaze holding up the Intercontinental Title and then one of Jean standing in the shadows, holding what is left of the World Title belt, a belt he destroyed while successfully defending it at the last pay per view.)

Or A Challenger

(Shots of Mark Payne, Scourge, and Play Money flash across the screen. Each man hitting devastating moves on opponents. Shots of Payne and Scourge, their faces covered in blood and determination.)

Whether You’re A New Face

(We see quick shots of Righteous Bounty Hunter and Aaron Riddick.)

Or An Old One

(We see quick shots of Brad Steel and Jeff Miller.)

One Thing Is For Certain

(Now the clips increase in speed and intensity. We see shots of just about every FCW superstar either slamming someone, or being slammed. They’re either putting a guy through a table or being put through one. And just about all of them are bleeding from at least one part of their body.)

Only The Strong Survive

(As those words fade, the music slowly begins to fade as well. We see one last clip. It is of Mark Payne and Oblivion slowly falling through the air at the end of their Hell in the Cell match up. In slow motion we see the two bodies falling but, just before impact, the title screen appears.)

(As the title screen fades, we cut to a live shot. The east coast phenomenon known as Full Contact Wrestling has finally hit Anaheim, California and these West Coast fans are ecstatic to finally be a part of FCW pay per view history. As the cameras pan the arena, we see t-shirts and posters showing support for a number of FCW superstars. In particular, there seems to be a strong showing of support for California native, Darian Blaze. Finally, after about a solid minute of panning the crowd, the camera cuts to the announce position where the usual suspects, Kevin Cole and Nik Cain, are seated.)

Kevin Cole: Full Contact Wrestling has come back to pay per view and, for the first time ever, is live from California!

Nik Cain: The West Coast has been clamoring for FCW for about a year now, and we’re finally about to deliver them the goods.

Kevin Cole: And what an event we have planned for them! The crowning of a new Television Champion, every other title on the line, three huge elimination matches, and a battle royal involving the survivors!

Nik Cain: They don’t call this one Survival of the Fittest for nothing. You gotta have stamina and a whole lot of heart to be the last man standing at the end of this thing.

Kevin Cole: Let’s get to the ring as the Television Title tournament gets underway!

This contest is scheduled for one fall.

Introducing first...
From Edmonton, Alberta, Canada...
Weighing in at 252 pounds...

"The Raider" Aaron Riddick

Kevin Cole: Now what can you tell me about this newcomer?

Nik Cain: Honestly? No a whole hell of a lot. I know he’s a brawler from Canada and that’s about it. The only other thing I know for sure is that some of the boys were none too happy with the fact that they got passed over to compete in this thing. I mean this Riddick guy hasn’t even had a match in FCW and he’s now in line for a crack at a title. Of course, given his opponent, I may not view this as a privilege.

His opponent...
From St. Louis, Missouri...
Weighing in at 375 pounds...

Kevin Cole: Up next, Chris White will take on Righteous Bounty Hunter!

Nik Cain: Winning this match may prove to be a mixed blessing. You get to advance, but you have to face Explosion, who looks fired up tonight. And a fired up Explosion is not something I want to be in the ring with.

This contest is a no-DQ-no-countout-with Iron Man rules.
It is for the FCW Intercontinental Title.

Introducing first...

Scourge

His opponent...
Led to the ring by Lauren Washington...
From Santa Monica, California...
Weighing in at 273 pounds...

The FCW Intercontinental Champion...
"Mr. Moonlight" Darian Blaze

("I'm Not You" by the Clipse, bangs throughout the PA system. The Californian fans are going crazy with excitement, waiting impatiently, for their home-state hero, and Intercontinental Champion Darian Blaze. Blaze walks out, to a standing ovation, and in Dracula like fashion, sucks, in their praise. The IC title is seen resting over his shoulder, as well as a look of determination on his face. Valet, Lauren is seen bringing up the rear, touching the fan's hands as she walks by. Blaze stops about half way down the aisle. He puts a mic to his lips, and the IC champion speaks.)

Darian Blaze: Its great to be back home, and it's great to see that the west coast still has love for their champion. In this ring tonight, I'll be facing off against the Scourge of the FCW, for this belt over my shoulder. Tonight Scourge either one or two things will happen. You will either leave California tonight the Intercontinental champion, or you will leave the loser. It's simple Scourge you look out a window, and read that graffiti on the wall, that's my culture. You look at every man and woman in attendance tonight, and guess what? Those are my people. The last time we headlined a PPV together, you took away from me, my most prized possession, the FCW Championship. Tonight Scourge, I break you, and your shadow into incy, wincey pieces. As the theme of this PPV suggest, this is all about Survival of the Fittest. Jean, and Payne may have trained a few weeks for their match, but I've trained a lifetime for this moment Scourge. In the Iron-man match, I won't know the word stop, because I'll be in that zone, from start to finish. This belt is mine for as long as I wish to keep it.
