COMPLETE EXTREME RISING REMEMBER NOVEMBER iPPV COVERAGE

By Mike Johnson on 2012-11-17 19:55:41
Raven came out and said that people probably wonder why he's here when he trashed the show the first time. He said that Extreme should have died when it did and it doesn't need to come back. He said no one needs to be here. He said that it was a revolution at the time and it can't be done again. He said that it was his genius that allowed Paul Heyman to do what he did.

Raven said that because he isn't lending his genius to it. He realizes that if you can't beat em, join 'em and he'll destroy it from the inside. He said that he'll do whatever he can and use whatever weapons he has to do it. He said that he was supposed to fight Gary Wolfe but Wolfe was "too much of a p***y" to show up, so now that he's explained himself, he's leaving.

Raven got all the way to the locker room when Stevie Richards came out and backed him back to the ring. Raven asked him what he has to say. Richards said he wanted to say what everyone is thinking, "shut the f*** up." He said that he's disgusted by Raven and said that Raven can still call him kid but he's a man and he's going to be the first Extreme Rising champion.

Raven said if that's the case, he's going to take the belt and spank Stevie the way he always has. Richards said that's the problem, he just wanted to take down something good and positive. He said that he's going to carry the company and do more than Raven ever did in his career. Richards said that they haven't wrestled since 1997. Raven said that he won. Richards said that he did, but isn't it time for a rematch.

Richards challenged Raven to face him in a Loser Leaves Town match, saying if he can't beat Raven, he doesn't want to be here. Raven accepted and began to walk out. Richards said he wanted the match right now. Raven said that if he does...and nailed Richards with the mic.

Raven vs. Stevie Richards

Raven said they aren't going to have a match but a fight. He choked Richards and beat him with a series of right hands in the corner. Richards came back with a series of right hands when a bunch of wrestlers hit the ring. They said it was the new Flock.

Richards began nailing Steviekicks and a Steviebomb. Raven disappeared from the scene. Richards asked where he was and said that when he's done, the fans will never, ever have to see Raven again.
