[ After the commercial breaks and whatnot,
the next frame would transition to Corey and JBL sitting on their
broadcast table with a high quality slide show of TNW:R superstars
playing behind them in the back on a large plasma screen TV. Graves,
with confidence, introduced tonight's audience into the show and
tried to pull their attention in with a deep look in his eyes. ]

Corey Graves: Hello ladies and gentlemen to another broadcast of
"Fight Zone" where me and my lovely co-host John Bradshaw Layfield
will be giving you an insight inside of the TNW:R Universe. Before we
begin today, I would like to apologize for the lack of shows lately. We
were supposed to cover Slammiversary and the shows prior, but there
were technical issues, therefore we could not offer you your regular
dose of Fight Zone, and we are deeply sorry that this had happened
and we're very apologetic right now, but we're back on track now. We
would appreciate it if you can trend this on your social medias, it would
be such a great help, so give the both of us your live tweets
from the #FightZone, thank you so much. And without further or do,
we've got lots of stuff to cover on tonight's show, but before I begin
I would like to ask my colleague JBL, how ya doin' man? Feeling good?

JBL would smile into the camera, with that stupid smug look on his face before speaking.

JBL: Corey, thank you I am feeling absolutely electric tonight! These fans were in for quite the show where we saw such matches EC3 vs. Randy Orton, Matt Allens vs. Zack Sabre, Jr. and many more. It seemed like tonight we had a lot of new guys debuting here tonight on iMPACT, trying to make a name for themselves in TNW:R!  

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

[ Graves kept a confident smile on his face as
he turned to watch JBL speak for tonight's show, he nodded with
everything he had said, and before it was his turn to speak he
cleared his throat and resumed his strong eye contact with
the camera ]

Corey Graves: Definitely, definitely. Us fans surely got
a plateful of action with the latest events that had happened
to unfold recently in the TNW:R Universe, but before we cover
the matches on the iMPACT show I would like to talk about the
draft we recently just had. It was the first time in history
that a TNW[x] draft had actually been interesting for once? W-
Which is pretty weird to me, I was pretty excited for the draft
this time around than all the other times in all honesty, but
I think this draft was nice and it ironed out everything and
in a way it made things more interesting. I don't know about you
John, but that's what I think about it, because not
only did things get a helluvalot more interesting, but
superstars in the back are getting way more opportunities

 

[The Wrestling God]

JBL: A separation of brands, Corey, means there needs to be a new world champion. The TNW:R Champion Roman Reigns was RAW's first pick, and the number one contender for that title, Seth Rollins, was also drafted onto RAW. That leaves iMPACT without a championship to defend, and that could make matters interesting. The amount of talent on iMPACT is just incredible. You've got Kevin Owens, Ethan Carter III, Matt Allens, Dean Ambrose, and the list goes on. I mean, things are going to be looking very interesting as the weeks go on and on and we get closer to Summerslam. Corey, the draft is looking great for the fans and the competitors so far.  

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

Corey Graves: I can't express it enough John, but I
am super excited for SummerSlam, I mean just watching
the advertisements for it. I get the jitters, I mean it's just-
it's just the buildup to it right now is amazing. And with these
new uprising stars coming from their graves I'm truly glad
to be, not only a commentator, but a fan aswell. So, let's
just go right into it. Ethan Carter the Third or EC3 vs. Randy
Orton. How was it?

[The Wrestling God]

JBL: Corey, the debut of the young EC3 was phenomenal! The match was great, but what was even better was that EC3 was able to pull off a victory in his TNW:R debut tonight! You know, EC3 reminds me a lot of a younger version of myself. We both have 3 letter names, we both are great in the ring, and we're both stinkin' rich!

JBL would begin to laugh at his own remarks, allowing Corey to follow up on some comments.

 

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

[ Graves shared a laugh amongst
his fellow colleague after he made his remark, he would
pause and look down on a piece of paper before
continuing his review ]

Corey Graves: Haha, yeah, well we got to
see the resurrection of "Derrick Bateman" now EC3
if you think about it, but dang seeing this match
and having it become the opening sequence for iMPACT
after the draft was just, it was like a mouthful of flavor
because the match kept me on the edge of my seat
and EC3 and Orton don't fail to deliver. I mean, with
Orton's big win in Slammiversary this loss could be big,
but regardless he is the Viper and he works in mysterious
ways. Personally, I think Orton will get back out there and
head back to the top (maybe?). I'm just glad that my pal,
Ethan, got to come back and tell everyone that he's still
got what it takes to become a champion and that's really
respectable.

 

[The Wrestling God]

JBL: There is no doubt in my mind that Randy Orton, a third generation superstar, can bounce back from this loss. He still managed to take down Kevin Owens at Slammiversary, and he is still riding on that roller coaster, and it will only get higher from here.  

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

Corey Graves: So, after EC3's debut match,
we get to eat up the match with Sami Zayn against his
huge competitor, and I mean huge competitor, Samoa Joe!
And before I dig into the meaty stuff, I'd like to talk about
the match over-all. We've got Samoa Joe picking up the
win on this one, he won off of submission, and literally
took the spirit in Sami's body away when he passed
out. The match was solid, both hitting each other
back and forth and them giving it their all. Then
shortly after the match ended Kevin Owens came out
and brutally attacked Sami Zayn. We don't know if
Sami is okay, all we know is that, we got to see him
get viciously attacked by Kevin and that he
definitely will be recovering because
of this incident.

[The Wrestling God]

JBL: Kevin's anger from earlier on, when he was talking to the audience and Sami decided to interrupt, telling him to take a seat definitely fueled a little bit into the attack. You and I both know, Corey, being in the ring that the spot Owens dropped Sami Zayn on is the HARDEST spot of the entire ring. Sami landed right on his upper back maybe even his neck, and you can see in this clip, it wasn't pretty. Referees, doctors would come out and help Sami to the back but we do not yet have word on how he's doing. What an attack.  

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

[ Graves shared a look of dismay as he was delivering
the tragic news about Sami Zayn ]

Corey Graves: It is truly the most unpleasant
landing that a wrestler could take and this inhumane
action of Kevin Owens had stunned and actually hurt
some of the fans of Sami Zayn, we are all worried
about his health and wellbeing right now. Sami if you're
watching from home or the hospital bed, just know that
the fans truly care about you and we hope to see you back
in action soon. However, Kevin Owens, is a different story
I believe in the underdog stories, where a hero prevails, and
I'm excited to see Sami unload on Owens and open a can
of whoopass towards him when he comes back.

 

[The Wrestling God]

JBL: There is no doubt in my mind that when Sami recovers, or if he's okay off the bat, that these two men will have an absolute brawl! They both lay down all they have every night int he wring, and just like you are I am excited to see how this action between Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens transpires.  

[The Savior of Misbehavior]

Corey Graves: We at Fight Zone will positively keep
the fans updated on Sami's condition, but for now we will
have to wish him a good luck on his recovery. Moving on, we
have the longest and grueling match on the card, but this time
it's a turn of events as the debuting fresh meat, Zack Sabre Jr.,
tragically lost his match tonight against Matt Allens, a man known
to have an enormous amount of fight in him. Well, seeing this match,
both of these men had the fight in them. It seemed like they had
all the stamina in the world. Just like Sami's match, these men
were hitting each other left and right and they were definitely
leaving trails of blood and sweat on the canvas tonight. Allens
won the match by Phoenix Splash, putting an end to Zack's dream.
What do you think about this JBL?
