Edge Tribute Show
Saturday Night Showdown
Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena
Spokane, Washington
(The rather than showing a recap of the last show begins showing accolades of The Rated “R” Superstar, Edge showing some of his best moments)
CC: Recently in wrestling…a great champion and friend was forced into early retirement.
(Screen shows footage of Edge)
Edge: Eight years ago…I broke my neck…I have to retire.
JTH: We in wrestling realize the great loss that has become of wrestling in the past two weeks. And it is our goal to try and recover and pass and standards we set for ourselves and each other.
(Screen show Edge posing at Wrestlemania 27 on the ramp)
Drew: Tonight…we’re all the same…as we are one…with Edge!
(Screen then shows a packed Spokane Veterans Memorial Arena in Spokane as a capture of Edge is shown on the Titantron as the crowd cheers as Howard Finkle is in the ring)
Finkle: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome as this time…the number one contender for the NIWA World Heavyweight Championship…”Mr. Wrestlemania” JTH! (Crowd Cheers as JTH comes out with the Edge Arm Band on his right arm and holds it up for the crowd to see as he comes down to the ring. Last time we saw JTH he was laid out by someone to end last week’s SNS. There’s no doubt JTH will have something to say about that. The music ends and JTH looks out to the crowd with them cheering.)
JTH: As many of you might know…uh…my favorite wrestler growing up was Shawn Michaels…(Crowd Cheers) And when or if I ever became a wrestler I wanted to be just like him, hence getting a dream match with him at the first Clash of the Titans, hence all the rip-off HBK style attires I’ve wore since then, so one and so forth…But what many people might not know is there was another superstar that rivaled HBK in my mind of favoritism. And his name was Edge…(Crowd Cheers) I had been a fan of Edge since 2000, basically before it wasn’t cool to be a fan of Edge & Christian. I remember a night on Smackdown that Edge & Christian were in Oakland, California coming out with Raiders gear on front of Silver & Black nation, to which Edge would then pull off that jersey and show a Baltimore Ravens shirt underneath and tell the crowd that the Raiders were gonna get their asses kicked by the Baltimore Ravens on their way to Super Bowl XXXV…He was right, and as a Ravens fans that just oozed out mark our for me. From then on it would be getting made fun of being an Edgehead throughout the years, but in the end…it was cool to be one. So Edge, thank you for everything you did for wrestling, and by the way as everyone knows I went to Wrestlemania XXIV, saw his match with The Undertaker, just between you and me Edge, I was rooting for ya. So now my two favorite wrestlers are gone so…I guess I’ve have to root for The Miz now…(Crowd starts booing and JTH laughs and smiles at the response) Oh you people, but…(His face gets serious suddenly) that’s not the only reason I’m here tonight as something needs to be addressed. The last time I was seen on TV, I has just got my ass kicked by someone backstage and being sent to the hospital. Overall, just a sore ego but that’ll be taken care of; but what gets me is this person didn’t feel telling the world who he was, and you would think beating JTH down before he becomes the NIWA World Champion would be something to gloat about, which tells me that this person feels doing this is just a walk in the park. But by doing that, it actually narrows down the list pretty dramatically. Which brings me to right now…I know deep down this man didn’t do it, but I need to look him eye to eye and find out…So Drew…(Crowd cheers and boos) We need to talk… (Stands and waits)
(Drew’s music hits and the NIWA World Champion comes out already in his ring gear and getting a wide spatter of cheers with a small chorus of boos as Drew gets in the ring and gets a mike from ringside)
Drew: First of all, let me be the first to say, it’s good to see you in one piece after last week. Now, with that being said…I have been getting a lot of flack from people thinking that it was me that took you out last week, and I’m thankful that you’re one of the only people that sees my innocence. Because let’s get one thing straight, our match at Clash of the Titans, will be huge. And I don’t want any excuses from either one of us. And at the end of that match, win, lose, or draw, I’m going to extend my hand (He does so) just like I’m doing now, and shake you hand after the best match of our young careers. And whether I’m the NIWA World Champion or not, I will know that the better man will have won. (Crowd Cheers)
JTH: (Pauses for a couple of seconds) I have no doubt that your intentions are clear. But let’s get one thing straight Drew, you may be “The Chosen One”, but Clash of the Titans is the biggest event of the year, and at the biggest event of the year…I’m “The Chosen One”…(Crowd Cheers) Clash of the Titans II, there will be a new NIWA World Champion.
Drew: It seems the only thing we agree on is our respect for Edge…(Cheers) but the agreement ends there JTH. You’ve never beaten me in a one on one match, and that won’t change now. But how bout we practice that little hand shake now. (Drew extends his hand)
(JTH looks at the hand and slowly obliges and the two pull each other in and the two go eye to eye. Suddenly the lights go out and static appears on the Titantron as the mysterious shadow appears on the screen walking to the camera. A repeated “Who am I?” echo is heard on the screen as JTH and Drew look up as the camera shows the widescreen of the arena showing the footage. The shadow then gets in point blank range of the camera and a pair of white eyes appear in screen)
Voice: You’ll know soon……(Screen blacks out and the lights come back on with Drew and JTH looking on in utter confusion)
Blitz: Growing up in Canada, Edge was one of the top heroes. It was Bret Hart and Edge for the past several years. Watching Edge compete, whether good guy or bad guy made it good to watch wrestling and now I feel that a piece of wrestling is gone now. But Edge will always be one of the very best ever. Period and Edge will dearly…be missed…

Owens attempt for a sneak attack backfires tonight, but will him walk out of Clash of the Titans II the NIWA Junior Heavyweight Champion.
Buttercup: Ya know while my sisters always liked the John Cena’s or the Triple H’s, I was always an Edge fan. The long blonde hair, good looks and of course the sadistic attitude. The way he could get people to do what he wanted whether be booed or cheered was unbelievable. And I just want to say, he maybe gone, but I’m still and Edge Head. Always have been, always will be…
