Ring Announcer: Brad Maddox
GFW Amped opens up with Karen Jarrett and Summer Rae standing in the ring, Karen has a microphone in hand as she awaits to address the crowd.
Karen: Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to GFW Amped. We have been on such a role and it’s crazy to think that GFW’s next pay per view event is nearing and what better way to start a brand new episode GFW Amped by announcing what match will be the main event at GFW Extinction. First of all, let me bring out the GFW World Heavyweight Champion, Ricky Steamboat Jr.
Karen and Summer stand in the ring, while they await the GWF World Heavyweight Champion to make his appearance. Ricky Steamboat Jr. theme plays as out comes the champion, with the championship belt over his shoulder. Ricky stands at the top of the ramp, raises the championship in the air, as he makes his way down the ring, the crowd cheering him on and he enters the ring and shakes Karen and Summer’s hand and stands in the ring awaiting Karen’s announcement.
Karen: Thank you for coming out here Ricky, I know you’re excited to know who your opponent is going to be. You’ve done such a great job of representing the GFW and being the face of the company, there is no doubt in my mind that you are going to do your best to defend your championship.
Ricky: Thank you Karen, it’s been a real honor carrying this championship, defending the championship every opportunity I get. I want to be a fighting champion, I want to do good by the GFW, and of course I want to do good by you. You’ve given me the platform , you’ve given me the opportunities and now I just want to do my best to be the man I know you wanted me to me, be the vision you wanted for GFW.
Karen: It’s really humbling to hear that and you’ve been doing a great job Ricky. As for your opponent, he’s not exactly my favorite person here, but he has proven himself and much like I’ve given you, your opportunity, it’s only fair that I give him his that’s why…
Before Karen could even finish, she is interrupted as Eli Drake’s theme plays and Karen rolls her eyes in annoyance, and shakes her head, as Eli Drake walks out from backstage, and strikes a pose on the top of the stage. Microphone in hand, Eli makes his way to the ring as he starts to speak.
Eli: Just say my name Karen, you know you were about to name me the new number one contender, you know you were going to say my name when you announce the main event for GFW Extinction.
Eli continues his way down the ramp and makes his way up the steps and enters the ring.
Karen: When will you ever learn Eli to not interrupt me when I’m talking. Do I need to remind you again who’s show this is?
Eli: I’ll stop Karen when you finally admit that me, EEEE Liii DRAKE, is the best acquisition you have made for GFW and of course the person who rightfully should be called the GFW World Heavyweight Champion.
Karen: You know something Eli, you might just make me change my mind about GFW Extinction.
Ricky: It’s okay Karen, if beating him is what I have to do to finally shut him up, make it happen, I’ll be more than happy to beat him.
Ricky and Eli are about to get in each other’s face, and Karen was about to make an announcement but they were all of a sudden interrupted by someone else, the Fraternity, as Alex Riley makes his way out and the GFW Tag Team Champions Channing Decker and Trent Gibbs follow him, as he shakes his head at the two men in the ring.
Alex: Why is Eli Drake getting a championship match? When the future of wrestling is right here. The Fraternity has already taken the GFW by storm by becoming the GFW Tag Team Champions, so now the brotherhood has their eyes set on more gold and that’s the GFW World Heavyweight Championship.
Karen: You have been very impressive Alex, I’ll give you that. And You do hold a win over the champion but…
Before Karen could continue, Summer taps Karen on her shoulder and whispers in her ear, Karen nods, happy with what she was told, as she continues to speak.
Karen: But you’re right Alex, you have been impressive and is maybe the future of the company. Since Eli Drake can’t seem to understand his position in this company, my lovely assistant Summer had a great idea, at GFW Extinction, our fighting Champion Ricky Steamboat Jr, will take on Alex Riley and Eli Drake in a Triple Threat Match for the GFW World Heavyweight championship. But tonight, the two number one contenders, Alex Riley and Eli Drake, will team up in our main event and will take on Ricky Steamboat Jr. and since he’s at a disadvantage, his partner of choice. So guys Good luck.
Karen smiles as Ricky looks on at his two opponents for later tonight and Extinction as GFW Amped goes to commercial break as Karen walks by the Fraternity up the ramp and makes her way backstage.

Summer and Karen are seen backstage in Karen’s office as they discuss the earlier happenings of the night.
Karen: That was great thinking off your feet Summer, a three way match between those three, is just going to be amazing.
Summer: I learn from the best Karen, you’ve been such an inspiration to me, like I can’t thank you enough.
Karen and Summer were interrupted by Johnny and Chelsea, who walk into her office. Karen questions his barging in as Johnny quickly speaks.
Johnny: Karen, I hear you talking about giving opportunities and I know right now I don’t have the best track record, but at Resurrection it was the rise of Johnny Curtis and at Extinction I plan on putting all this bad luck I have going to rest, so if you have anyone in mind for me, I’m ready to take them on. The cleansing needs to start, and I’m the guy to do it.
Karen: You know Johnny, as much as I enjoyed watching you get dumpstered, I’ll admit you have talent, so I might have someone in mind, actually if you could find a monitor, you can have a look at his match, because it’s next. In a way, I think this opponent is Perfect for you.
Karen smirks as Johnny nodded, as him and Chelsea exits Karen’s office and GFW Amped goes to the ring for the next match.

GFW Amped is back as David Starr could be seen in the ring, microphone in hand, David takes a deep breath before he starts to speak.
David: I know you guys might be a little tired of these two and tired of me complaining about this, I can’t help but be a standup guy. I’m all about reaching for the stars and being the best you can be. We’ve all seen what Lucky and Laurel has been going through, Laurel could reach for so much more, while Lucky, well, let’s just say he’s not being the best he should be. So that’s why I’m taking this opportunity to put this all to an end before certain hearts are broken.
David: So Laurel if you could, please come out here.
David stands in the ring as he awaits Laurel, Laurel’s theme plays as Laurel makes her way out, Laurel is nervous and could be seen questioning David as she slowly and cautiously enters the ring. Laurel asks David what he wants before he speaks.
David: I know you are searching for love and would do anything for it. Even though my heart is not yours I can assure you that lucky’s heart isn’t yours either. He’s playing you, he’s using you and you can do a whole lot better Laurel. There are a lot of fish in the sea, you just caught a bad one. You can’t trust him, he’s not….
David couldn’t get more words in, since Lucky Cannon made his way out, interrupted him and makes his way down the ramp.
Lucky: Don’t listen to him Laurel, he’s just jealous, jealous of what we have, want what we have and he knows he could never get it. Don’t listen to anything he has to say.
Lucky instructed Laurel as he enters the ring and stands between Laurel and David, as he gets in his face.
David: I’m not jealous of anything, or anyone, I’m just trying to make what is wrong, right and that my friend is you taking advantage of her.
Lucky: Laurel, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. If I didn’t want to be with you, would I be wearing all the wonderful gifts you buy me? Would I be engaged with you? No, if I didn’t I wouldn’t, it’s all jealousy and he knows it.
David: He’s just doing it for the gifts Laurel, you need to see that he’s lying to you, not telling the truth. But I guess there is only one way to prove you love her. Marry her, Marry her Lucky, right here, in this ring.
Laurel claps in glee, as she looks at Lucky wide eyed, awaiting his response.
Lucky: Fine, let’s get married, we’ll have to talk to Karen of course.
Laurel jumps on Lucky in excitement, as David looks on surprised, Laurel grabs Lucky by the hand as the two of them exit the ring and David feels once again defeated trying to prove his point to Laurel, as the scene fades and goes to commercial break, with Laurel and Lucky kissing at the top of the ramp before heading backstage.

Ricky: You’re still in town? Good, will you be here on time. The match is tonight, I was going to ask Robbie but they got to him first and he can’t wrestle tonight, so I thought I’d get my own sources and find someone they would never look at. Since we go way back, thought I’d ask. Glad you can make it, they certainly be surprised that’s for sure.

Eli: McKenzie, it’s simple, everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon and get a bit of Eli Drake, because they know, by association it just lifts their credibility. Ricky wants to fight me, to lift his credibility, this, what do they call themselves? The Fraternity? Same thing, just want to be near Eli Drake to seem more important and this mystery tag team partner is no different.
Eli: He heard, he’d have the opportunity to be in the same ring as Eli Drake and just couldn’t say no. Because that’s the way it is McKenzie, our general Manager can’t admit it, won’t admit it but knows it, the greatest GFW acquisition is no other than Eeeee Liiiii Drake and later tonight it will be no different I’ll do what I do best, win and take names in the process.

Karen and Summer were interrupted by Johnny and Chelsea, who walk into her office. Karen questions his barging in as Johnny quickly speaks.
Johnny: Karen, I hear you talking about giving opportunities and I know right now I don’t have the best track record, but at Resurrection it was the rise of Johnny Curtis and at Extinction I plan on putting all this bad luck I have going to rest, so if you have anyone in mind for me, I’m ready to take them on. The cleansing needs to start, and I’m the guy to do it.
Karen: You know Johnny, as much as I enjoyed watching you get dumpstered, I’ll admit you have talent, so I might have someone in mind, actually if you could find a monitor, you can have a look at his match, because it’s next. In a way, I think this opponent is Perfect for you.

I’m all about reaching for the stars and being the best you can be. We’ve all seen what Lucky and Laurel has been going through, Laurel could reach for so much more, while Lucky, well, let’s just say he’s not being the best he should be.

He’s playing you, he’s using you and you can do a whole lot better Laurel. There are a lot of fish in the sea, you just caught a bad one. You can’t trust him, he’s not….
David couldn’t get more words in, since Lucky Cannon made his way out, interrupted him and makes his way down the ramp.
Lucky: Don’t listen to him Laurel, he’s just jealous, jealous of what we have, want what we have and he knows he could never get it. Don’t listen to anything he has to say.
Lucky instructed Laurel as he enters the ring and stands between Laurel and David, as he gets in his face.
David: I’m not jealous of anything, or anyone, I’m just trying to make what is wrong, right and that my friend is you taking advantage of her.
Lucky: Laurel, he doesn’t know what he’s talking about. If I didn’t want to be with you, would I be wearing all the wonderful gifts you buy me? Would I be engaged with you? No, if I didn’t I wouldn’t, it’s all jealousy and he knows it.
David: He’s just doing it for the gifts Laurel, you need to see that he’s lying to you, not telling the truth. But I guess there is only one way to prove you love her. Marry her, Marry her Lucky, right here, in this ring.
Laurel claps in glee, as she looks at Lucky wide eyed, awaiting his response.
Lucky: Fine, let’s get married, we’ll have to talk to Karen of course.

Same thing, just want to be near Eli Drake to seem more important and this mystery tag team partner is no different.

Because that’s the way it is McKenzie, our general Manager can’t admit it, won’t admit it but knows it, the greatest GFW acquisition is no other than Eeeee Liiiii Drake and later tonight it will be no different I’ll do what I do best, win and take names in the process.
