Segment 1 — Draemur Opens the Show (15 minutes)
[Arena goes dark. Bell toll. Fog fills the ramp. Draemur emerges with Eros & Darkside at his side, hooded. Draemur holds the stolen Heritage Title.]
Draemur (promo):
“I told you the grave collects its debts. And now, the grave has taken what it is owed. This title… is not Oba’s. It is not Shawn Michaels’. It belongs to the shadows. It belongs to The Returned.
Eros… a man broken by losses, reborn in my image. Darkside… cast aside by the light, found in the dark. They are proof that death is not the end. They are proof that in CSW, you either fall… or you follow.”
[Crowd boos. Oba Femi’s music hits. The champion storms down, furious.]
Oba:
“You can dress it up in riddles all you want, Draemur. But let’s make it simple. I beat you. I left you broken. That championship is mine. And tonight, you’re going to give it back.”
[Draemur smirks, whispers to the belt, then holds it out teasing Oba… only to snatch it back and laugh.]
Draemur:
“You can’t take what’s already buried.”
[Shawn Michaels’ music hits. He steps onto the stage.]
Shawn:
“I’ll make this crystal clear — the Heritage Championship belongs to the man who won at All Star Spectacular. And that’s Oba Femi. Draemur, you’ve got two choices: bring it to my office, or fight tonight. Because in tonight’s main event — it’s Oba Femi versus Eros… and if Oba wins, The Returned must hand the belt back.”
[Crowd pops. Draemur snarls, but nods.]
