(CUE UP: "Let's Go All The Way" - Insane Clown Posse. The video wall shows images of Kevin Powers’s recent action to include his match against Evan Aho at ANNIVERSARY. With the music continuing to blare 'Good God' Kevin Powers make his way to the top of the rampway and is greeted by a huge face pop by the crowd in attendance. Looking out into the crowd, Powers holds out his arms to make a 'T' pattern and, behind him, a white fountain like pyro goes off exciting the crowd even more. Once the fountain goes out Powers makes his way inside of the ring and continues to spark up the crowd by standing on the second turnbuckle looking out into the crowd. Powers then makes a move towards one of the ring attendants, calls for a mic, gets it, and begins to speak.)

KP: SAN DIEGO, CALI-FOR-NI-A!

(The crowd gives up a huge roar when hearing their city's name.)

KP: The Sports Arena! Live and in living color! For the last couple of days 'The Risqué One' and 'The Double G KP' have been livin' the nightlife 'Good God' style at this local hole in the wall … I think everyone has heard of it. They call it … PB Bar and Grill ….

(Another huge roar when hearing the club's name.)

KP: Oh yeah ladies and gents! Happy Hour was rockin' and the ladies were jockin' for position cause they all wanted to know about the house (looks down) that Good God can build! They all know that I'll bring … the lumber …

(Huge cheers)

KP: As long as they've got the … foundation … and house after house … foundation after foundation … The Double G KP never quit until EACH AND EVER HOUSE WAS … erected …

(Huge laughing and cheers)

KP: But, as the night got longer and the drinks got stronger I was reminded about a certain event … ANNIVERSARY.

(Cheers now turn to boos)

KP: I was reminded time and time again (looks towards Sammy Benson) how this (now points to Benson) little suck ass continued … TIME AND TIME AGAIN … said that Eddy Love was the one that carried my career!

SB v/o: (VERY worried) Wh-what did I say?

BB v/o: (shaking his head) I told you … I told you … I told you to shut your mouth, but did you ever listen? Oh no …

SB v/o: (in a panic) YOU DIDN'T TELL ME NOTHING!

KP: HEY BENSON! You need to refocus and understand this. One of the few things that would make me feel better right now is to grab your nappy ass and just drop you face first in the center of the ring, but I can't … cause I'm sure Eddy Love would sue me for damaging his property. I mean … who else is he gonna find to toss his salad? Maybe JJ DeVille, but I think he prefers you the best since you are the KING … of Love's In-Between!

(Huge laughter from the crowd and Buckley)

BB v/o: (laughing) Oh that's rich! Oh man!

SB v/o: (visibly upset) Screw him! He's gone after today and he knows it!

BB v/o: Hey Sammy … nugget for your thoughts?

SB v/o: SHADDUP!

(As Powers begins to speak again, "Can’t You Trip Like I Do" begins to play.  The crowd begins to go crazy, sensing a major confrontation. Powers stops in amazement then looks irritated as Sweet Melissa and Eddy Love walk out on the top of the ramp. Eddy has on a T-shirt with a likeness of Kevin Powers with red lettered "PLR" over the picture. Melissa has on a belly shirt that shows Powers and Love holding up the CSWA tag belts with the words "Powers of Love, no big surprise". Melissa holds the mic, as both smile.)

KP:  What the hell do you want?  Nobody asked you to come down here.

MELISSA: Kevin, I hate to see this day come. Somewhere in my heart I had always thought that you would see the error in your ways and return to our side.  Those were good times Kevin, and I’ll remember the good times we’ve had with GOOD GOD Kevin Powers and try and forget the days you spent wasting your promising career with the Unholy alliance and the Dark Carnival. We were like family Kevin, and I can’t help but think if you hadn’t turned your back on your family you wouldn’t be having to give this speech now.  But Kevin family always forgives, and so on this last night of your career here in the CSWA, let it be known that as far as we’re concerned the Powers of Love will live forever and whether you care to admit it or not, you will always be an important member. Remember the good times Kevin, remember how we dominated this sport, remember how the Powers of Love ran the show when you remember us, and we hope some day you reconsider and join Eddy and myself in the ring, at the club or on the Love Boat. Good Bye Big Kevin, I’ve already been missing you for 18 months.

(Melissa hands the mic to Eddy Love, he steps forward walking towards the ring as he talks, big smile.)

LOVE: I hesitated to even do this Kevin, because I know in that insecure mind of yours, you think that this is Eddy Love trying to steal your spot light again. But Kevin,  when I was getting my start you were the rock I had to lean on, my partner, my friend, and although you have changed into a mere fraction of the great man I walked with, I would be less a man if I were not grateful for the good times I had with (pauses) GOOD GOD (pause) Kevin Powers.  So Kevin, as much as I’ve wanted to drive a stake through your heart for tearing a part what was so strong, I also want to thank you for what you were once a part of, and I’ve written a little poem for the world to remember you by on this day of your departure from the CSWA.  (Love stops at the end of the rampway looking up at Powers.)

We all gather to honor the retirement of our friend Kevin Powers. 
He’s been a friend, a foe a man of some integrity 
But I just can’t bring myself to give him farewell flowers.

Like us all Kevin has made decisions, both good and bad.
His departure is sure to make his fans sad
He’s been known to drink like a fish, and kick like a mule
But Good ole Kevin was never anyone’s fool.

He’s been a champion, a patsy, and on occasion a nice guy
When he lifted you to kiss the canvas you felt you could touch the sky. 
Didn’t matter whether tag, hard core, or traditional you see…. 
Kevin Powers would take all comers from Eli Flair to me.

He never got the corporate push he felt he deserved
His cause, just or not, he never thought it was served.
And while his finishing maneuver was little more than a hard shove 
We all remember him fondly because he once teamed with Eddy Love.

So now Kevin you’ve left the job that allowed grown men to kick you in the crotch,
And so Melissa and I present you with this solid gold watch.

BB:  Love just tossed that watch to Powers in the ring.... and Powers fires it back!!! 

SB:  What an ingrate!

BB:  That pocketwatch just exploded at Love's feet... and he seems amused by the whole thing.  Powers makes a move towards the ropes, but it looks like Love and Melissa are going to take their leave...and it's about time.  This is Powers' moment...not Eddy's.

SB:  It's ALWAYS Eddy's moment.

KP: (now looking out towards the crowd) Now the other thing … ANNIVERSARY. Now I could've gone out on top and took the title with me, but I let my emotions get the best of me and … SHOCKINGLY … let the CSWA World Champion, but in some circles known as GXW excess garbage, Evan Aho win again. Oh yeah, we've fought before. It was a four corners match way back in the day and the only way he won that one was because I let my emotions get the best of me as well. Amazingly … the reason I lost was because of my constant feud with federation owners. And that is why I have to make this announcement. That is why … I made the promise and I will stick to this promise. That is why …  

(HUGE boos from the audience in attendance.)

KP: (holds up a hand) That is why … to make this official I am calling out the man that I made this promise to. CHAD MERRITT … I know you can hear me and I KNOW how much you have been looking forward to this. So how about you come on out to your ring and here words you have longed to hear for a while now.

(A modified version of "Hail To The Chief" begins to play as Chad Merritt slowly makes his way to the ring. Being drowned by boos, the CEO of CSWA visibly has a huge smile on his face as he continues his march. Slowly getting into the ring he struts around for a little bit before standing still and looking right at Kevin Powers.)

KP: Well boss …

CM: You know Kevin, before you even start, I just want to replay some footage from Tacoma that, to me, made life worth living. Guys … if you would …

(The video wall begins to play a clip from CSWA PRIMETIME in Tacoma)

KP: Screw all of this I'm sorry CSWA but I can't take it anymore. Bickering in the back for who should be on top, who should be pushed, and who should be screwed over … it just doesn't fly with me. At ANNIVERSARY I'm going to have my last match and, as far as 'Good God' Kevin Powers and the CSWA, this little 'marriage' is over!

(The camera then cuts back to Chad Merritt with a HUGE smile on his face)

KP: Kevin … let me be the very FIRST to tell you … you are right. This marriage is OVER! All your little antics … all your little snide comments towards me and my actions … all your 'executive decisions'! Oh? Did you think I forgot about the time you and Poe took it upon yourselves to take the Unified Tag Titles over to that lower than life federation EWI and defend them? Did you think I forgot that? And now, because of your own words, I am MORE than happy to hear you say it. Say the words that will finally cement your … choking career in the CSWA! Go ahead and say it Mr. I'll never make King of the Hill … SAY IT! SAY … YOU QUIT!

(The crowd continues to boo the words of Chad Merritt and Powers looks around and then shakes his head in disgust. Powers goes to raise the mic to his lips, but Merritt reaches out and stops him.)

CM: Oh wait a minute Kevin. I don't want you to use that microphone cause I don't think it works so well. I want you to use … MY microphone. I know for a FACT this one works, so go a head. Speak your words into that!

(Upset, Powers takes the microphone from a smug Merritt and raises it again to his face.)

KP: Merritt … as much as it KILLS me to … (Merritt then reaches at Powers hand and pulls it towards him.)

CM: I DIDN'T ASK FOR A SPEECH! I only wanna hear two words from you! I … QUIT! That's it! That's all you have to say!

(With the crowd continuing to boo Powers takes the microphone back and looks right into Merritt's face.)

KP: I …

(Suddenly 'Erotica' – Madonna begins to blare over the arena as 'Risqué' Roseanne Fairhurst steps out from behind the curtain and makes her way to the ring. As a shocked Chad Merritt and a now smiling Kevin Powers look on, the crowd floods the arena with cheers as Fairhurst makes her way into the ring. With microphone in hand she looks at the two and then begins to speak.)

RF: Kevin, as much as this piece of trash wants to here you say those two words, I … I can't let you do it!

(Hearing the cheers, a reacting Merritt takes the mic from Powers and begins yelling at Fairhurst.)

CM: WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE! How … DARE YOU interrupt this moment! Do you wanna be out on your keister with your soon to be retiring meal ticket?

RF: No Merritt! You don't understand! Powers isn't gonna retire!

CM: What? WHAT? Have you been bleaching your brain again bimbo? Didn't you hear what he said in Tacoma? Lord knows you were there with him when he said it! He said that ANNIVERSARY was his LAST... MATCH! Therefore, because of the words he spoke, he is held by verbal contract to keep that little misfortunate promise! And there is nothing (points at Powers) he … (points at Fairhurst) YOU … (points at everyone in the arena) or ANYONE ELSE that can prove that clip different!

RF: Actually … there is something that can prove that different.

(Cheers turn to a mixed reaction from the audience because they don't know where Fairhurst is going with this.)

CM: What are you talking about?

RF: Boys … hit the video!

(The video wall begins to play another clip from CSWA PRIMETIME in Tacoma)

BB: Kevin Powers is a man of surprises tonight!

SB: Isn't he gone yet? I thought he retired?

POWERS: Well... if it isn't my gooooood friend... my olllllld friend... The Iceman himself, Steve Radder. The biiiiig man, all 135 pounds of him... with a world title!

RADDER: Listen, Kev. I was in the back when you came out here before. I know things have been difficult for you. I know what went down with Randalls. But tonight's not the night for this--

POWERS: Iceman... I didn't come out here to fight you. Not tonight, anyways... How long have we rolled together? A couple years? PLR? Well, Radder... I don't think I've ever seen a bigger ovation ever given to anyone. And I gotta say... you deserve it.

(The crowd starts to applaud. Powers turns around and motions for them to give it up. Radder stands, still not knowing what is going on.)

POWERS: But Radder, you also gotta admit... you got EXTREMELY lucky. But just as lady luck rode on your shoulders... she never seems to ride on mine.

RADDER: Listen, Kev--

POWERS: No, YOU listen, Radder. Because I got something to say. I came out here before and told everyone that I only have a few months left here in the CSWA... and that's true. The CSWA won't have Kevin Powers to kick around anymore, once I'm gone... but before I leave this place once and for all... I'm going to be able to say that I've been World Champ! And, Radder... (Powers stands right up to Radder, points his finger on the title and pushes off, making Radder take a step or two back.) I plan on taking the title from you!

(The camera then cuts back to Roseanne Fairhurst with a HUGE smile on her face and a frantic and worried look on Chad Merritt's.)

RF: Now what was it you said Merritt? Oh yeah … because of the words he spoke, he is held by verbal contract to keep that promise, but because at ANNIVERSARY, for the World Title, he faced Evan Aho INSTEAD of Steve Radder … that contract … was considered … NULL AND VOID!

(Huge cheers from the audience after hearing that announcement.)

CM: You … you … you (BLEEP)! How DARE YOU get involved when you aren't supposed to! Do you know who I am? I'm CHAD MERRITT! I'm the one that calls the shots and I will NOT have some HO-bart, Indiana trailer park SLUT tell me what I can or CANNOT DO!

RF: Um … Mr. Merritt …

CM: QUIET WENCH! Powers is going to retire from this federation if he likes it or not cause it's obvious he can't hack it here! He's tried once, twice, a hundred and ninety seven times, and he STILL can't get the big prize around his waist! He's washed up, a waste, and a pile of crap that I do NOT need in this … MY FEDERATION!

RF: Mr Merritt …

CM: WHAT! WHAT DO YOU WANT NOW!

RF: Did you forget where you were by chance?

(Fairhurst points over Merritt's shoulder as he turns around and realizes that Powers has been behind him all along.)

BB:  OH MY LORD! MERRITT FORGOT WHERE HE WAS AND NOW POWERS NAILS HIM WITH A BOOT TO THE MID-SECTION! WAIT! HE'S GOT THE FOUNDER OF THE CSWA UP …. KISS THE CANVAS!! KISS THE CANVAS!! KEVIN POWERS JUST PLANTED CHAD MERRITT IN THE CENTER OF THE RING!

SB: Forget about retiring! Powers is going to be FIRED after a move like that!

(Powers and Fairhurst stand over a prone Chad Merritt and begin to laugh as the give each other a high five. Looking for a microphone, Powers goes to the side of the ring and picks one up. With the crowd cheering behind him Powers begins to speak.)

KP: Hey Merritt, when you decide to wake up, try and keep this one thing in your little pea-brained mind. You just got your ass handed to you USDA Grade A PRIME style by the man with US STEEL AND SEX APPEAL … THE DOUBLE G KP! (gets in his face) Merritt … I think I’m gonna stay a little bit longer cause I think the CSWA should return to the days of the party … GOOD GOD STYLE!

((Can’t You)Trip Like I Do) – Filter and The Crystal Method beings to play as Powers drops his microphone next to a still knocked out Chad Merritt. After taking one last glance at the CSWA Owner, Powers and Fairhurst, drowned by the cheers from the audience, leave the ring and head back up the rampway towards the back.)
