William Regal: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the finest sixty minutes of pro wrestling in the world, the Show Time Power Hour! I'm your host, William Regal. With me are Mauro Ranallo and Jim Cornette! Men, the big news coming out of last week was the sudden appearance of the 'Rated R Superstar' Edge!"
Mauro Ranallo: "William, the entire world was in shock when that music hit! We never thought we'd see Edge in a wrestling ring again, much less here in NWA: Show Time!"
Jim Cornette: "The Power Hour got a healthy does of 'Edge-ertainment' last week! It was great to see him back in the ring and looking like a million bucks! One person didn't welcome him back with open arms, though, and that was Chris Jericho!"
Regal: "Indeed! Chris Jericho inserted his foot directly into his mouth with that open challenge to anyone past, present, or future. He got an old nemesis I don't think he quite expected in Edge! But, what brought Edge back?! Can we expect to see more of him?! We're going to hear from the man himself right now to begin a whale of a program! JoJo, take it away!"
JoJo Offerman: "Ladies and gentlemen, the 'Rated R Superstar,' Edge."
The familiar refrain of, "You think you know me..." rang out as did a huge ovation as Edge walked out. Once he got inside the ring, a chant of, "Welcome back!" began.
Edge: "Thank you. Thank you so much."
Before he could go any further, a chant of, "You still got it!" started.
Edge: "You're d*** right I do! Back in two thousand eleven, I was forced to retire do to ongoing neck and neurological issues. That really got to me. I was still at the top of my game, still a World Champion after my last match. To have to give all that up was like a knife to the gut. But, I determined that wouldn't define me. For the last nine years, I've worked my tail off to get into the best shape of my life! At forty-six years old, I feel like I'm twenty-five again! Then, I saw on Twitter where Chris Jericho laid out this open challenge. I thought to myself, 'I live down the road in Asheville, North Carolina. That's only a couple of hours away. I can make that drive.' So, I called up Jordan Richards. He arranged for a private workout and a full battery of testing by the NWA physicians. Guess what?! I was cleared to compete! So, I'm back and I finally get to go out on my own terms! I don't know how long this ride will last, but I'm going to enjoy it!"
Suddenly, the ominous music of "The Four Horsemen" hit to bring out Ric Flair and his charges.
Ric Flair: "Edge, I have a great deal of respect for you. In the twighlight of my career, you and I had one of the best 'TLC' matches ever seen on live TV. You were a great athlete and a great wrestler. But, respect goes out the window when you go messing with 'The Four Horsemen!' Woooo!"
Chris Jericho: "Edge, you think you won the battle last week, huh?! Well, you didn't win squat! That was just a little exhibition anyway! But now, you've pissed me off and by extension, you've pissed off 'The Horsemen!' You're in for a battle you could never win!"
CM Punk: "Edge, you are one of the greats of the last generation. But, you're looking at the best in the world at what we do. Jericho and I are the two best of our era. Bobby and James are easily the best tag team of the last two decades. What hope do you have against us?!"
The group began to surround the ring. It looked like Edge would be a sitting duck. Suddenly, this entrance theme played:
Mauro Ranallo: "William, the entire world was in shock when that music hit! We never thought we'd see Edge in a wrestling ring again, much less here in NWA: Show Time!"
Jim Cornette: "The Power Hour got a healthy does of 'Edge-ertainment' last week! It was great to see him back in the ring and looking like a million bucks! One person didn't welcome him back with open arms, though, and that was Chris Jericho!"

The group began to surround the ring. It looked like Edge would be a sitting duck. Suddenly, this entrance theme played:
Ricochet came to the entrance with a microphone.
Ricochet: "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on just a minute! Now, I know that 'The Four Horsemen' historically like the four-on-one advantage. But, make no mistake about it, Edge does have friends in the back. I'm one of them, but, I'm not the only one."
Ricochet: "Whoa, whoa, whoa! Hold on just a minute! Now, I know that 'The Four Horsemen' historically like the four-on-one advantage. But, make no mistake about it, Edge does have friends in the back. I'm one of them, but, I'm not the only one."
"War Machine" stepped to the stage as well. They looked at Ricochet, then all three sprinted toward the ring. "The Four Horsemen" hightailed away from the fray as Ricochet and "War Machine" joined Edge in the ring.
Edge: "It looks like the sides are even now! Come on!"
Flair backed his men away. He mouthed the words, "We'll have our day" as they retreated up the entrance ramp.
Regal: "What a confrontation to start us off! Edge has made waves since showing up last week. He's also made some enemies. But, it would seem he has allies in the locker room as well. Those eight men in a match would be a titanic struggle! I'd love to see it, personally! Hint, hint, Commissioner Sting. Fans, we have some big matches signed for tonight! The Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship is on the line, as well as a 'Fatal Four-Way' to determine 'The Fiend's' next challenger! Let's go to the ring for the action!"
Match One ~ NWA: Show Time Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship ~ "Euro Trash" ("The Villain" Marty Scurll & Aleister Black) with "Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo vs. "Undisputed Era" (Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish with Adam Cole, Roderick Strong, & Dr. Britt Baker, DMD)
This was a fantastic match. The champions, who've reigned for nearly a year, have been dominant against everyone. Fish and O'Reilly have been a fluid team for years and have reigned as IWGP Jr. Tag Champions, so they know a thing or two about sub-heavyweight competition. Tandem offense was the theme of the day on both sides. Fish took several minutes of punishment before finally getting a tag to Kyle. Near the end of the match, Trent Seven and Tyler bate came walking out of the crowd and provided a huge distraction. The challengers took advantage of this with their "High-Low Combination" against Scurll to secure the pin.
Winners and NEW NWA: Show Time Cruiserweight Tag Team Champions = "Undisputed Era" by pinfall in 23:12
After the bell, "Euro Trash" was fuming at "Moustache Mountain," which smiled and waved as they left through the crowd.
Regal: "We have new champions! O'Reilly and Fish have done it!"
Ranallo: "And, they got some help from a couple of unforseen counterparts!"
Cornette: "Well, it looks like 'Moustache Mountain' just kept 'British Strong Style-Euro Trash' feud going!"
Regal: "It definitely would appear so! Fans, we must take a break. When we return, we'll have our big main event!"
Regal: "We're back! Fans, we'd loved to welcome back Cathy Kelley, our beloved Correspondent who was banished by CM Punk when he was CEO. She has been reinstated by Jordan Richards. Cathy is backstage with our Commissioner, Sting, who has a big announcment!"
Cathy Kelley: "I am here with NWA: Show Time Commissioner Sting. Commissioner, you have an announcement concerning next week's episode."
Sting: "Yes. We all saw the big confrontation to begin the hour tonight. because of that, I have signed an 'Eight-Man Tag Team' match for next Tuesday. It'll be Ricochet, 'War Machine,' and Edge taking on 'The Four Horsemen.' That will be our main event."
Kelley: "Thank you, Commissioner. William, back to you."
Regal: "Wow! Ask and ye shall receive, Show Time fans! That's going to be huge! Speaking of huge matches, we have a main event that will determine the new number one contender to Bray Wyatt! Let's go to the ring!"
Match Two ~ "Fatal Four-Way" match ~ "King of Bros" Matt Riddle vs. "Ring General" WALTER vs. "The Beast" Brock Lesnar with Eve Torres vs. Kevin Steen
It was difficult to keep up with action in this one. Steen got taken out early in this one by the returning Claudio Castagnoli (who Steen had injured). They fought to the back, effectively ending Steen's participation in the match. Brock and WALTER took turns tossing Riddle about. Matt, however, did have a scintilating exchange by hitting alternating kicks to the chests of both men (four per man), which took Lesnar and WALTER down. Riddle eventually got WALTER in the "Bromission." Brock broke it up with a brutal stomp to Matt's face. Brock hit a sudden "F-5" and got the pin on Riddle before WALTER could recover.
Winner = Brock Lesnar by pinfall in 28:43
Regal: "What a back-and-forth battle!"
Ranallo: "'The Beast' has outlasted them all to reclaim a spo as number one contender!"
Cornette: "Will he add the Heavyweight Championship to his United States Title?!"
Regal: "Only time will tell! Fans, that's going to do it for this week. Please join us next Tuesday on TBS for more of the Show Time Power Hour! For Mauro Ranallo and Jim Cornette, I'm William Regal, saying ta ta for now! Whoa, wait!"
As Brock posed in center ring, the lights went out. When they came back up, "The Fiend" was kneeling over a fallen Lesnar. He began to laugh maniacally as the screen faded to black.
Edge: "It looks like the sides are even now! Come on!"
Flair backed his men away. He mouthed the words, "We'll have our day" as they retreated up the entrance ramp.
