As the video package finally comes to an end with an extended look at the ‘Uprising’ logo, the camera cuts to an exterior shot of the Goodfellas Casino Arena, in the heart of the Las Vegas strip, before cutting to a live shot of inside the arena.
The camera pans around the sold-out crowd, most of them on their feet and screaming loudly whilst trying to get their homemade sign shown in front of the camera. The cameras finally head over to the commentary table, where Julian Fiasco and Jeremiah Sloan welcome the fans watching on the HOTv network on PWA:TV to the broadcast and begin to break down some of the action that will take place on tonight’s show!

RINGSIDE
The Evolution of Family
There is a mixed reaction from the crowd to start the show as ‘Evolution’ By Clawfinger hits the sound system, before Darwin Jones steps out onto the top of the entrance ramp wearing a suit! Jones acknowledges the mixed reaction from the fans at the top of the entrance ramp, before slowing walking down and climbing into the ring. Jones looks solemn as he calls for the live microphone, before signalling for his music to be cut.
Darwin Jones: “Ladies and gentlemen of Las Vegas, last time on Uprising I stepped into the main event for the chance to compete for the P:V Championship belt tonight…. And I failed.”
Mixed reaction from the crowd.
Darwin Jones: “I failed myself, but I also failed every one of you, because I am the one man that could have stood up for Curtis Knight tonight and prevented him from walking away with the P:V Championship belt! I came over to P:V with Curtis and my sister, and we thought that we were going to run the world….”
Loud boos from the crowd.
Darwin Jones: “But I quickly learned what all of you already knew, that Curtis Knight and my sister are two of the biggest pieces of shit in the wrestling business!”
A cheer from the crowd.
Darwin Jones: “So with that knowledge in my back pocket, I will do what I have done my whole career! I will do what I did in Hostility, what I did in the sVo, what I will do now in P:V…. Darwin will evolve!”
There is still another mixed reaction from the crowd, but a few more cheers than boos compared to the start of the night. Jones drops the microphone and climbs out of the ring, before making his way back up the entrance ramp, slapping the hands of some of the fans that are lined alongside the entrance ramp. Jones turns back around to face the arena and acknowledge the crowd, but there are suddenly boos as Athena appears from behind him in the entrance way with a steel chair in hand!
Athena slams the steel chair into the back of her brother, sending him down to his knees, before finishing him off with a vile steel chair shot to the head! The crowd boo loudly as Athena places the steel chair over the throat of her brother who is downed on the top of the entrance ramp, before screaming “I have no brother!” as security streams out to get between the two, as a chaotic Uprising heads to its first commercial break of the evening!

There are cheers in the arena as Uprising comes back from a commercial break with Stevie Rigg arriving at the arena!

Rigg signals to the fans one last time before disappearing into the arena. Can Stevie Rigg win the biggest match of his career tonight, and defeat Curtis Knight to win the P:V Championship belt?

The Challenge
As Bjorn Asulf celebrates in the middle of the ring with the P:V Television Championship belt, the camera heads backstage to the interview pit where Cara Slapalot is standing, microphone in hand, alongside Boyd Jackson watching the action!
Cara Slapalot: “Boyd, thanks for joining me tonight. Now we just watched Bjorn Asulf successfully defend the P:V Television Championship for the first time against Dale Norman, but you don’t seem too impressed?”
Jackson shakes his head, not taking his eyes off of the screen where Bjorn is still celebrating with he gold.
Boyd Jackson: “Not impressed Cara, not impressed in the least. I was this close from being the Internet Champion last time on Uprising…”
Jackson holds his fingers up to Cara to signal a small distance, whilst still not taking his eyes off of the screen.
Boyd Jackson: “But Bjorn got lucky and won the match, so I will give him that. But if he was any kind of Champion he would have come and given me the first shot at the gold and not a jobber like Dale Norman! Dale Norman! What did he ever do to deserve a title shot?”
Cara looks dumbfounded by the question as she stumbles over an answer.
Boyd Jackson: “Exactly, he has done nothing! So Bjorn, you got lucky and won the match, let’s see what kind of man you really are. Face me one on one for the gold and let’s see who really deserves to hold it!”
Jackson turns away from Cara Slapalot to stare at the TV screen.
Cara Slapalot: “Well there you have it folks, our first championship match of the night is in the books but a challenge has already been laid down to the Champion! Later tonight we have the big P:V Championship match between ‘The Dark Horse’ Curtis Knight and ‘Big’ Stevie Rigg, but next after the commercial we have tag team action, don’t go anywhere!”
Cara looks excited as the scene fades out to a commercial break.

Co-Exist!
The fans cheer as James Mendoza and Brandon Snyder celebrate the victory in the ring, before slowly climbing out and making their way back up the entrance ramp. The fans cheer the pair as they disappear around the curtain, but the camera follows them as waiting backstage is Cara Slapalot with a microphone in hand!
Cara Slapalot: “James, Brandon, a big win out there for you guys over an established tag team in Rebel Society! Was there any worries of you not being on the same page after competing against each other last time out on Uprising?”
Mendoza and Snyder look at each other for a second before answering, both still a little out of breath from the match.
James Mendoza: “We are both competitors Cara, we went out there and did what we needed to do in order to get that winners purse…”
Brandon Snyder: “Damn right Cara, you don’t have to be best of friends to work together and pick up the win, especially when you are going against to S.O.B’s like Rebel Society!”
James Mendoza: “That’s right, fighting two piece of shits like that gives you that extra motivation. There was no issue working together, I proved that I am the top boy after winning two weeks ago on Uprising, Brandon knew to follow my lead.”
Snyder shoots Mendoza an angry look, but before he can respond the pair are suddenly attacked from behind by Rebel Society! Strickland and Marshall stomp Mendoza and Snyder down to the floor, with Kat Kellison directing traffic, as Cara Slapalot rushes away from the scene!
Uprising heads to a commercial break as security tries to restore some order in the backstage area!

Embarrassing
As Cherry Bordeaux celebrates the victory in the middle of the ring, the cameras cut backstage to the women’s locker room where Lucy Von Drake is watching the action and shaking her head.
LVD: “Embarrassing! Absolutely embarrassing!”
A few of the other women in the locker room look up at Lucy Von Drake, but quickly look away from her to avoid making eye contact.
LVD: “This is the type of match, the type of competitor that JD James thinks should represent the women of Project:Violence?”
Lucy shakes her head again as she shouts, before this time one woman is brave enough to stand to her feet and look Lucy Von Drake in the eye, that woman is Lilith Morgan.
Lilith Morgan: “Not sure what your problem is, was a good match. We all like Cherry Bordeaux…”
Lucy looks at Lilith Morgan with anger in her eyes, before stepping forward and dropping her with a right hand! The rest of the woman in the locker room quickly dive in to separate the two women, as Lucy Von Drake shouts angrily at Lilith Morgan to come and say it again to her face!

Next Champion?
The cameras head to the interview put for the last time this evening, where ‘Big’ Stevie Rigg is standing by with Cara Slapalot! Cara has a microphone in her hand and Rigg looks pumped up for the biggest match of his career!
Cara Slapalot: “Stevie, thanks for joining me here tonight! No we are only moments away from your P:V Championship match against ‘The Dark Horse’ Curtis Knight! How are you feeling before this massive match?”
Rigg continues to look focus as he stares down the camera lens.
Stevie Rigg: “Confident Cara, I am feeling confident! I know what a big opportunity this is and I am determined not to let this slip through my fingers. I don’t care who I have to fight out there, I don’t care of Curtis Knight brings his whole family out! I will be walking out tonight as the P:V Champion!”
Cara Slapalot: “Well you mention Curtis Knight and his family there, are you worried about Athena being a factor in this match up?”
Rigg let’s out a little laugh.
Stevie Rigg: “If Curtis Knight doesn’t think he can beat me himself and needs his wife’s help, then I think that says more about him. I am focused on one thing, and that is bringing home the gold!”
The fans cheer loudly, as the scene fades out to the last commercial break of the evening!
