By Shaun Best-Rajah.Com Reporter
Welcome back everybody, it's now time for Heat. Todd Grisham is joined by The Coach on commentary and Justin Roberts is the ring announcer. We start off with..........
Maven vs Val Venis
Rematch from International Heat last week. There's heat for Maven and pops for Val who throws his towel out to a lady in the front row much to Maven's disgust. Val chases Maven round at the start and Maven ducks his head outside putting his hands up to protect his head and signalling he wants no part of Val just like last week. We then get started and Val goes to lockup but Maven surprises him with a kick to the gut and a wristlock. Maven lands clubbing blows and drives a shoulder into Val then grabs a headlock connecting with a punch to Val's face sending him crawling on his knees. Val recovers to reverse Maven into the ropes and connects with a running knee to the gut, Val manages to repeat the move despite Maven's attempts to escape outside and follows up with a side russian legsweep a gyration and clubbing blows to Maven's head. Val drops a knee gets a two count and chops Maven in the corner. Val drives his head into the gut of Maven twice, Maven thwarts an Irish whip attempt with a rake to the eyes and he charges forwards crashing into Val's back with a high knee. Maven works on Val's back with three elbows, a stomp and a series of punches. Maven taunts Val's gyration drops axehandles and chokes Val in the ropes. Maven gets a nearfall after a back suplex, whips Val to the ropes and follows in with a knee to the gut before locking in an abdominal stretch while clubbing away at Val's back. Maven uses the ropes for extra leverage, the referee sees this and Maven utilises a four count before throwing Val down and arguing with the referee. Maven approaches Val who stings Maven with shots to the gut, Val gets up and starts to fight back with a chop and a punch which knocks Maven down, Val clotheslines and backelbows Maven down unloads with another chop, Maven off the ropes, Val knocks him down with a knee to the gut, and covers but Maven gets out at two. Maven gets his bearings in the ropes, Val approaches, Maven kicks him away, Maven charges, Val ducks and executes a one armed throwaway slam. Val signals for the Money Shot and steps out onto the apron but sees Maven stirring so Val re-enters lands a few kicks and punches and picks him up attempting a suplex. Maven slips behind Val and from nowhere hits his still unnamed finisher where he leaps up and brings Val's back down onto his knees. Maven covers and gets the win 1-2-3. Here is Your Winner: MAVEN.

La Resistance are standing in the ring with The Coach who introduces them and informs us all that La Resistance have something to get off their chest and he will allocate them some time on his show. La Resistance complain about losing the Tag Titles through chants of USA. They say Regal and Tajiri cheated via Tajiri's mist and it was unfair to face them in Tajiri's homeland and that they aren't the real tag champs. Coach backs up La Resistance by saying they have his and Eric Bischoff's support. Coach calls Regal and Tajiri a joke which prompts the champions to enter. Coach talks trash to the champs and bigs himself up by bragging about his performance in the Royal Rumble match.
