New Four Horsemen interview
("The Four Horsemen" by Metallica played as The New Four Horsemen: CM Punk,
James Gibson and The Briscoe Brothers: Jay & Mark Briscoe came to the ring to
huge boos from the crowd.)
CM Punk: It amazes me that BJ Whitmer, Austin Aries and Roderick Strong are
wasting their enegry trying to stand up and defend a man I pummeled and left
for dead in Ric Flair. Flair is finished and won't be anywhere near a PWF
ring every again.
(The fans booed Punk.)
CM Punk: I've already disposed of BJ Whitmer. Next are Austin Aries and
Roderick Strong. Both men are scheduled to step into the ring with the man,
the wheelin' dealin' kiss stealin', son-of-a-gun! Yours truly, CM PUNK! I am
the reason all of you people are here tonight and I were alive during Flair's
hey-day, he won't have been a seventeen-time World Heavyweight Champion. Hell,
he wouldn't have even been a champion to begin with. Life is timing and in this
case, Flair's clock has stopped ticking. My clock doesn't run on batteries like
Flair's. My clock runs on my blood, my sweat and my desire to show the world
what it means to be THE MAN! WOO!
(The New Four Horsemen left the ring with Punk strutting to huge boos from the
crowd.)

PWF Showdown LXXVIII
September 12, 2014
-During the PWF Intercontinental Championship singles match between champion
Ken Kennedy and challenger Ken Doane, Kennedy executed the Ken-Ton Bomb on
Doane and made the cover. Doane's manager at ringside, Don Callis pulled
Kennedy off of Doane and quickly turned his back to the ring. Kennedy got to
his feet and grabbed Callis by the hair. Next Generation Aces members Johnny
Nitro and Joey Mercury hit the ring and surrounded Kennedy. PWF referee Nick
Patrick ordered both men out of the ring. Doane superkicked Kennedy and made
the cover as Nitro, Mercury and Callis stood around ringside. Kennedy struggled
to his feet and short-arm lariated Doane. An enraged and pissed off Dave Finlay
left Celtic Gang members Steve Regal and David Taylor to the ring. Finlay
grabbed Patrick by the collar and knocked him out with a punch to the face.
Regal and Taylor held Kennedy as Finlay began pummeling him with clubbing
blows. Kennedy Compound members Nigel McGuinness and Doug Williams quickly hit
the ring and went after Regal and Taylor. McGuinnes & Williams and Regal &
Taylor brawled around ringside as Finlay picked Kennedy up and grabbed him by
the throat. Kennedy low blowed Finlay and tossed him out of the ring. Nitro and Mercury
hit stereo springboard dropkicks on Kennedy as Doane executed the
Guillotine Legdrop on Kennedy. Doane covered Kennedy as Callis tossed Patrick
towards the pin attempt. Patrick made the count and awarded the match and the
PWF Intercontinental Championship to Ken Doane as the fans exploded with boos.
