BS: Can you believe it! Simply Stunning has won this match and the bragging rights over The Motor City Maniacs!

GM: I don't know how to explain it, but all I can say is that Simply Stunning was ready for this match from all areas. From endurance to special tactics they had it going on.

BS: Well, as you know folks, the next tour is our Road to Genesis tour and as everyone knows that our grand daddy event.

GM: The one in which closed the history book on the MWC and opened a new one for EWI.

BS: After Meltdown we'll be heading to Roberts Stadium in Evansville, Indiana for Heatwave and from what is penciled in here it's ... a two day stop?

GM: Two day? Are you sure?

BS: Says so right here.

GM: Strange ...

BS: After that it's the Conseco Fieldhouse in Indy for Shockwave and then to the Joe Louis Arena in Detroit, Michigan.

GM: DETROIT ROCK CITY! Oh Hell yes!

BS: And then, the big one, the one that put EWI on the map and turned wrestling around ... it's GENESIS and it'll be at last years venue The United Center in Chicago, Illinois!

GM: Genesis. And imagine it could be under SSN control.

BS: God help us all. Coming up next it's Cole Steele putting his Intercontinental Belt on the line against Cameron Cruise.

GM: Now known as the SSN Intercontinental Title I have only one question. How does Cameron Cruise get title shot after title shot? He's just like Simply Stunning and Hellfighter I swear!

BS: How's that?

GM: Eventually, with all these shots, he's bound to get lucky, but it won't be tonight cause Steele has it going on! He's ... THE PEOPLE'S CHOICE!

BS: Well put, but only for you. Folks let's go to the ring for our third title match of the night.


For the EWI Intercontinental Title

'The People's Choice' Cole Steele vs. Cameron Cruise

6'2", 232lbs | 6'4", 225lbs

Cleveland, OH | Tampa Bay, Flordia

'More Human Than Human' - White Zombie | 'Don't Tread On Me' - Metallica


The underdog challenger entered the arena first, receiving a positive face pop from the capacity crowd. The champion makes his entrance next, brandishing the Intercontinental title belt for the booing crowd to see as he walks to the ring, his manger Saul E., at his side. As Steele enters the ring he drops the title on the mat and rushes Cruise from behind.

BS: The champion wastes no time!

GM: A man after my own heart.

Steele bashes the challenger's head into the turnbuckle and then turns him around in the corner. The champion chops him twice and goes for a cross-corner whip but Cruise reverses and sends Cole into the corner. Cruise pauses for a moment and then runs in at him but Steele suddenly retaliates by dropkicking Cruise's knee out from under him. Cruise stands up under his own power though and tests the knee. Steele comes toward him but Cruise unleashes a dropkick and the champion goes down.

BS: Obviously that knee is okay, but you can't keep taking punishment on your knees. They can only take so much.

Steele scrambles to his feet and the two men lock up. The heavier Steele forces Cruise back into a corner and swing a right hand but Cruise ducks under it and Steele's hand bounces off the turnbuckle. He stumbles out of the corner holding his hand and the challenger clotheslines him down. Steele is back up quickly but takes a boot to the midsection and is then the recipient of a snap suplex. Cruise covers but only gets two.

BS: The challenger has to use his speed advantage to stay ahead of Steele. If he can do that, Steele might walk out of here beltless tonight.

GM: No way. Steele's got the SSN motivating factor behind him, not to mention Saul E. He's not losing.

Cruise whips Steele to the ropes and goes for a backdrop but the champion puts on the brakes and drives Cruise's skull into the mat with a DDT. He follows up with a vertical suplex that earns him a two count of his own. The SSN represenative quickly resumes the offensive after the pin attempt and sends the challenger flying into the corner with an Irish whip. He races in after him but Cruise jumps onto the second turnbuckle and attempts a sunset flip but the champion grabs hold of the top rope and turns it into a powerbomb.

GM: See?! Steele is the man with the plan!

BS: I will admit he's a heck of a wrestler.

Steele puts his feet on the bottom rope as he pins Cruise and the referee counts to two before spotting it. Steele gets irate with the referee and shoves him and the referee shoves him back, sending him stumbling into Cruise who schoolboys him and nearly gets three.

BS: Your boy better watch his temper or he'll soon be the former champion!

GM: Shut up, Sanders! That coulda happened to anyone!

Cruise connects with a solid right hand as both men get to their feet and then slams the champion down in the center of the ring. He then quickly applies a Boston Crab and the referee begins asking Steele if he wants to submit.

GM: This can't be happening!

BS: Oh but it can! Cole Steele is in a lot of trouble here.

Steele strains to break the hold but Cruise sits back further and Steele nearly goes white with pain. He signals to Saul E. and the manager immediately climbs up on the ring apron. As the referee argues with the big man, Steele reaches into his tights and pulls out a chain and wraps it around his fist. With Cruise leaning back so far, Steele is able to punch his opposition in the ribs, breaking the hold.

BS: There's how your almighty champion plans to keep his title, Garrett!

GM: Works for me!

BS: You make me sick.

Steele slowly crawls to his knees and turns to face Cruise. He blasts Cruise with the chain-wrapped fist and then stuffs the chain into his tights as Saul E. hops down. Steele smiles mischieviously and drags the dazed challenger to a neutral corner. The crowd boos vehemently as Steele walks to the opposite corner and then runs across the ring and goes for a Bronco Buster. Cruise rolls out of the way just in time however and the champion crotches himself on the middle rope.

GM: No! This can't be happening!

The champion stumbles out of the corner only to take a boot to the stomach. Cruise signals to the crowd and follows up with an implant DDT. The crowd cheers as Cruise covers. The referee counts: one...two...thr...Steele kicks out at the last second.

BS: Whether you like him or not, Cole Steele is as tough as they come!

GM: Well I like him, that's all that matters to me!

Cruise looks disappointed but keeps on Steele. He goes for an Irish whip but Steele reverses and catches Steele for a Samoan Drop on the rebound. Both men seem to be out of it and the referee begins to count. As the count reaches seven both men begin to stir but it is the champion who gets to his feet first and taps his boot, signalling for a superkick.

BS: Uh oh. If Cruise hits this, we could be seeing the Whiplash soon after!

As Cruise gets to his feet, Steele unleashes the superkick, sending him down again like a shot. Saul E. claps at ringside as the champion signals for the Whiplash. Steele applies the front facelock and then twists around for the Samoan bulldog but Cruise pushes him off, spins him around, and executes a reverse Russian legsweep.

BS: That's the Reality Check! Cameron Cruise's new finisher!

Cruise hooks the far leg and the referee counts: one...two...three!

BS: Cruise has done it! Cruise has done it! We have a NEW Intercontinental champion!

GM: NOOOO! This is awful!

Winner: Cameron Cruise (NEW EWI Intercontinental Champion)


BS: Cruise has challenged the odds and has captured the Intercontinental Title!!!

GM: I can't believe that Steele lost the title! He must've not of been in his game or something ... wait .. over the guard rail!

BS: A fan has hopped over the rail and has rolled in the ring! Wait that's not a fan that's ...

GM: Who is that?

BS: BOBBY JACKSON! It's Bobby Jackson and he just TAGGED Cruise from behind with a wicked lariat clothesline!

GM: And now he picks him up ... POWERBOMB! Weren't these two friends?

BS: Apparently at one time. Wait Jackson is going to the top and ... MY GOD!!!

GM: Looked like a Shooting Star Press into a Frog Splash if you ask me.

BS: Otherwise known as the Hard Attack! And Jackson has left his mark on Cruise! Wow! What a way to reintroduce yourself into the EWI.

GM: You mean that man has been here before.

BS: He has been here in the past and now he has returned and his sights are on Cameron Cruise!

GM: Well they need to clear this ring before ...

{Suddenly 'Take a Look Around' - Limp Bizkit begins to play as EWI Owner Erik Zieba makes his way from behind the curtain and towards the ring. Along with him are Apocalypse and the NthWA World Champion 'Good God' Kevin Powers. As they finally get into the ring Zieba gets a microphone.}

EZ: For those of you who haven't been following the current whereabouts of the EWI let me update you on a couple of outstanding features. Recently, in that flush down the toilet league known as the CSWA, or Chad's Sorry Wrestling Assholes, he feels that it's okay for him to suspended The Dark Carnival because they defended the CSWA titles in a EWI arena. I don't understand why he did this because The Dark Carnival put the belts on the line against Tony Sajec and Sky Suicide. Two very well rounded wrestlers, but Chad has his pathetic reasons and for that these two have been punished. AND he has dared to say some terrible things about the EWI. Roll the tape from Phoenix.

(The camera cuts to the TV wall, where the words "CSWA Primetime in Phoenix" appear as a clip begins)

CM: Speaking of old friends, now let me address the Unified Tag Team Title situation. You all saw what happened at INDEPENDENCE DAY when both Simply Stunning and The Dark Carnival each got one of the belts in the ladder match. What you may not have seen is what Powers and Apocalypse did with the titles a few weeks earlier. Roll it, Marvin.

(The camera cuts to the TV wall, where the words "EWI Shockwave" - Greensboro, North Carolina" appear as a clip begins)

KP: (taking the microphone from Zieba) Well Zieba you didn't surprise them, but you surprised me cause I didn't think you would go for it. Still a deal is a deal and we're gonna stick to it. Miso if you would please.

M: (taking the microphone) Ladies and Gentlemen. Not only will this match be fought under Southern BBQ rules, but titles will be at stake for The Dark Carnival, 'Good God' Kevin Powers and Apocalypse, will be putting their CSWA Unified Tag Team Titles on the line!

GM v/o: WHAT?

BS v/o: That's what I thought it would be, but is it possible?

GM v/o: WHAT?

BS v/o: Give over it Gary it's a done deal.

GM v/o: WHAT?

(cutto: later in the match)

GM: Cat fight! Woo! Oh... what's Miso up to? Sajec, frustrated, gets up and turns around to face Apocalypse just in time to be met with a fireball from Miso, who is standing on the apron! The fireball hits Sajec square in the face and he reels back in pain, stumbling over Powers, who is getting to his feet. Apocalypse delivers a series of punches to Sajec and then instructs Powers to set up another table. Apocalypse ascends the turnbuckle that Sajec extinguished earlier and pulls "Turn On" up to the top rope. Powers has the table set up and the ref gets back in the ring just in time to see Apocalypse hit The Seventh Seal (tombstone piledriver) from the top rope and straight through the table in the ring. The ref calls for the bell, awarding the match to The Dark Carnival.

(cutto: Merritt in the ring)

CM: Apparently Mr. Powers thought that because he was in a minor league independent that's seen locally in Taiwan that I wouldn't catch on. Thankfully, Mr. Locke still has ties back to his former stomping grounds. (camera cuts to a sign that has EWI written down the side: "Erik Wrestles Idiots.") Boys, you've technically violated your contracts...but I'll let that slide for now. Instead, I'll be content with taking you out of the running for the Unified Tag Team Titles. Just be glad that I'm not...

("Play With Me" by ICP begins playing as Powers and Apocalypse show up on the rampway. Powers has one of the Unified Tag Team Titles over his shoulder.)

KP: What the (bleep) do you think you're doing? We're still the champions, no matter what you...

CM: Cut his microphone.

KP: You little...

CM: CUT IT!

(Powers continues talking, but his words can't be heard. He throws down the microphone and begins advancing down the aisle with Apocalypse.)

CM: You're about to make the biggest mistake you've ever made if you keep walking, Kevin.

(Kevin continues mouthing off at Merritt...and continues walking down to ringside.)

BB: Look out from behind! It's SWAT TEAM! Colt and Beretta crash into The Dark Carnival from behind!!! Colt and Apocalypse fall off the railing almost into the first row. Beretta has ripped the title belt out of Powers' hands, and now he levels Kevin with it!!!

(Cutto Zieba, Powers, and Apocalypse in the ring.)

EZ: Amazing isn't it? Only because the EWI was strong and the CSWA was in denial did Merritt do such a thing. You know people, the last time I checked, this wasn't .... TAIWAN! The last time I checked this was .. OKLAHOMA CITY!!!

GM v/o: Cheap Pop!

BS v/o: Shup up.

EZ: And Erik Wrestles Idiots? This wasn't the last crime Merritt did cause he decided to go to Santa Fe next and ... I met him there. Hit the tape.

(The camera cuts to the TV wall, where the words "CSWA Showtime in Santa Fe" appear as a clip begins)

BB: Fans, we're back and ready for the....

('Take a Look Around' - Limp Bizkit begins to play in Santa Fe as an unknown person to the CSWA crowd appears from behind the curtain and heads down the rampway. As he makes his way into the ring a slight chant of 'EWI' can be heard in the distance and he picks up on it quickly.)

BB: What the...

EZ: Now that's what I'm talking about (pointing out towards the EWI chant). It's great to know that Taiwan natives can purchase a ticket to a CSWA event. So this is the CSWA? The place where legends are made and where young superstars have the chance to achieve the greatness if they're good enough? Well, from what I've seen it's more like where the legends are protected and favored and where the young superstars are pissed on day in and day out!

(The CSWA crowd begins to boo after Zieba's words.)

EZ: Boo all ya want! See if I care, but you know damn well it's true! It's true that there is corruption in the CSWA, but you idiots are to blind to see that! You cheer your little babyfaces day in and day out yet the so-called heels, the true talent in the CSWA, continued to get stepped on getting denied title shots in which they deserve! For example, oh I don't know, let's talk about their lack of arena traveling as of late. Now it has been said that the CSWA is twelve years and running, but if you was to go off RECENT history the only way one would think that was possible is by thinking that they've only had twelve events ... one for each year! And not only to they rarely have shows, but the people ... the TRUE talent, who tries to defend those titles never get such a chance because CSWA's Chad Merritt can't get off combing a beach or removing his head from his full point of contact to figure out where the CSWA's next event should actually be! So instead, because they want to defend the titles so desperately, a team you people know about .... The Dark Carnival ....

(The crowd begins to boo after hearing the name.)

EZ: The Dark Carnival ... come to me and ask if they can defend those titles in my federation. A federation .... that enjoys giving to the fans instead of making the claim of bad ticket sales and forced to shut down for a bit until revenue can pick us back up. Sure I let them defend the belts in the EWI when we was in Greensboro ... CSWA's HOME turf I might add cause I didn't see a problem with it. Did Chad Merritt come to me and tell me it couldn't happen? Nope. Then again Chad Merritt couldn't break away from his bowl of cereal on a good day cause he gets preoccupied with the little things, but that's another matter. So Powers and Apocalypse defended the belts and in FANTASTIC form I might add, but now I come to find out that this team, who WANTED to defend those belts, got STRIPPED of the chance of owning the belts?

My question is .... WHY? Why must The Dark Carnival be punished for something they CSWA couldn't give them the opportunity to do in the first place? I mean if the thirty day clause was in effect here then EVERYONE would drop the belts.

And SPEAKING of belts let's talk about your little World Title situation around here. My God where should we start? Let's look at the history of that exclusive title that we, the natives of Taiwan, rarely get to see from the great and wonderful Chad and Steve's Weakass Alliance. In the past you had a fine champion in the form of Eddy Love carry that belt with pride, but then he was screwed out of it when he was beaten by Mark Vizzack. Now did he do it by choice? Did Love actually go down to Vizzack's (snicker) strength and ability in the ring? Or was it because that his girl Sunshine Del Payne just HAPPENED to be on the board of directors and polished enough door knobs to make sure Eddy Love got the job done. And how do I know about Vizzack's ability? Remember he did wrestle in MWC now EWI and I've seen the boy in action. They do call him the Daredevil for a reason and it's because he can take an ass whipping like no other man can! Then there's the one they call Hornet ...

(A huge crowd cheer for Hornet.)

I mean if anyone can have more chances in the CSWA it has to be Hornet and his tongue and cheek deal he has with Merritt. The man is old and beyond his prime, but WOW ... another world title for Mr. Hornet? What was Vizzack thinking? Did he not see that wheelchair about to blindside him? Or did he drop to the canvas like a sack of money can? I tend to believe both, but Merritt tried to cover it up and strip Hornet of the title. Can't show favoritism to his bug hero all the time can he? That's why he came up with the famous Anniversary 99 contest called Ironman. Six people went in and one came out the winner in the form of Eli Flair with Kevin Powers coming in a close second. Another fan favorite of the CSWA Eli Flair defended the title with honors cause he truly earned it. Granted he never fought Powers for that title, but I guess in the eyes of The Inner Circle he just, by golly, gave it is all. Now one would think. Hell, Powers came in second so he should be the number one contender, but I guess that didn't happen cause more WORTHY opponents like Radder, Nemesis, Deacon, and Love. I can understand Love, but .... NEMESIS? RADDER? Where did THEY come from? Just because Flair and Radder had one little match in the MWC where blood spattered all over the place they deemed him WORTHY of a title? NEMESIS? COME ON! Now Deacon has the belt and that's not really a shocker. I've seen him in action back in the MWC where he battled against the best to include some rundown overrated shmo named Blair, but do my eyes deceive me or is it de ja-vu up in here cause I see that Locke is pulling the strings again and his groupies are at the top of the list yet again!

And now Radder is a number one contender? HOW THE HELL IS THAT POSSIBLE? The last I knew it was POWERS that came in second for the Ironman beating the likes of former champions Vizzack and Love and beating the current champion DEACON! Yet not only is he not a contender, but now he's suspended. Did Merritt think that the shot in Philly, Philadelphia Freedom, would tide Powers? Did Radder become a number one contender because of his frequent run-ins during main events? I mean I don't understand this at all. Merritt comes out and suspends The Dark Carnival cause he says they broke contract? Well, the way I SEE IT Merritt broke the contract of fairness and leaned towards favoritism and I could've SWORE that didn't happen in wrestling, but I could be wrong! The way I see it it's Merritt that owes Powers and The Dark Carnival compensation for damages that he created and tried to cover up! What Merritt needs to do is own up to the fact that he screwed up! Reinstate The Dark Carnival and give Powers the world title shot, but not the one he deserves ... the one he downright EARNED!!!

("The Way I Am" by Eminem begins to play. The crowd pops, surprisingly, as CSWA Commissioner makes his way out onto the rampway in a suit and tie. He faces Erik Zieba.)

CM: Well look who's here. If it isn't my favorite indy promoter. What's the name of that place you work for again...."Everybody Whines Interminably"...."Everyone Wants Income", something like that, right? I'm sure Locke told me before he went to arrange for your arrest, but I just can't remember.

(The look on Merritt's face changes.)

Look, Zieba, I don't have time for your little games. Powers and Apocalypse want their suspension lifted? Great...just pay the fine, and we're all happy. And if you're so fired up for Kevin Powers, then I suggest you go relive ancient history on your own TV time...that is, if you have any down there in the bush leagues. It's not 1999 anymore...the IRONMAN of CHAMPIONS is long since over. Eli Flair, the man who won it, is out of the ring. Eddy Love has taken some time off to do Lord knows what. Mark Vizzack is out 'finding himself,' and Kevin Powers got his (bleep) suspended. Tonight, the two men left on top from that IOC fight for the CSWA World Championship... and that doesn't include Kevin Powers.

But if Kevin wants a shot at the title, if he doesn't wanna pay the fine to lift his suspension, then I'm willing to oblige. You see, I just happen to have an open slot for a match at CSWA ANNIVERSARY 2000. If The Dark Carnival wants to accept a tag match, I'll tell you what I'll do....if Powers and Apoc win the tag match, I'll forgive the fine. Even better, I'll give a title shot to the man that gets the pinfall. How does that hit ya "Mister" Zieba?

EZ: Kevin shouldn't have to jump through your hoops, Merritt....he's EARNED that shot time and time again.

CM: Going once....

EZ: Just because you want Hornet to...

CM: Going twice...three strikes and your out, Erik.

EZ: You ought to face up to....

CM: G....

EZ: I'm sure they'll accept.

CM: I thought they might. And just so no one can accuse me of not being fair, I'll even tell you in advance who their opponents are going to be. I think it's only appropriate that on the other side of the ring from Kevin Powers should be one man he once screwed over by the name of.....hmmm let's see....Steve Radder.

EZ: (laughing) You're actually going to put Radder in the ring against Powers again? After last time? This is too easy.

CM: Now would I make it easy? I LOVE those guys too much.

("Whole Lotta Love" by Led Zeppelin begins to play as a horrified look appears on Zieba's face.)

EZ: You can't....he can't...NO!

CM: Oh yes.

SB: MY PRAYERS HAVE BEEN ANSWERED! PRAISE THE LORD!

BB: Those are words I never thought I'd hear out of Sammy Benson's mouth.

SB: EDDY'S COMING HOME!

CM: And now I think it's time for you to leave. JW, could you take out the trash please?

(CSWA Chief of Staff JW Locke comes out with CSWA security.)

JW: With pleasure.

(Security grabs Zieba and begins escorting him out with Locke following behind.}

(Cutto Zieba, Powers, and Apocalypse in the ring.)

EZ: Everybody Whines Interminably? Everyone Wants Income? Strongarm tactics? Just who the HELL does Merritt think he is? If anyone needs Income then it has to be Merritt cause at least the EWI CAN be seen on television compared to the BLACK OUT QUALITY the CSWA has offered! So where has Erik Zieba been? Defending the honor of the EWI in the Suckass Cheapass Weakass Arena owned by Mr. 'I would love to promote the CSWA, but I'm just too damn busy combing the sand cause that's the only life I have' MERRITT!!!

Now as for why I'm out here I know later tonight Eddy Love will represent the SSN while Tabu will represent the EWI in a match that'll determine who has control in the EWI. So, just in case, I've just finished working out some paperwork with my lawyers and everything I'm about to say is legal and binding and there is NO WAY Marcus Gottfried and the SSN can change it. Therefore ... let me introduce you to what is in store for The Road to Genesis ... The King of the Cage!

Thirty two men with one goal in life. To rise above the odds and become the King of the Cage. How will this be done? Simple really. At Heatwave in Evensville round one will be a blind round meaning names will be drawn out of a hat and that is who you'll face. After that the brackets will be established and at Showtime in Indy you'll know who you face from there on out. And since there is such a big number on the King of the Cage Heatwvae in Evensville will be a TWO NIGHT AFFAIR! Sixteen will fight the first night while sixteen will fight on night number two along with plenty of new talent finally to be introduced into the EWI.

As for the thirty two members who will be fighting in the King of the Cage here they are. Justin Sane, Cancer, Gemini, ExE, 'Superstar' Brad Striker, Angelus, Cameron Cruise, Ruiner, Greg Irondell, Toshiro Somekawa, Neil Hagen Vitruvian Veritas, 'Mr. Main Event' Rob Sampson, Ash Dean Locksmith, Dan 'Ego Buster' Ryan, 'Too Sweet' Brian Schwartz, Genesis, Tribulation, 'Ironman' Kev Harris, Andrew Burr, 'The Clash' Keith Rotten, Inferno, 'Riskbreaker' Ashley Riot, 'Furious' Jesse Falcon, 'The Southern Fox' Zero, Major Deluxe, Evan Aho, Commando, Tony Parrish, Bass, and Tabu.

Now what will they be fighting for? At Genesis a King of the Cage will be crowned and that person will fight the Extreme World Champion, WHOMEVER that is, at the FOLLOWING PAY PER VIEW .... BLACK ICE!!! And in case you haven't figured it out ... all matches WILL be in a CAGE!

There is nothing the SSN can do about it cause it's signed. So with that ... EWI ... It's BEEN YOUR PLEASURE!!!

{'Take a Look Around' - Limp Bizkit cues back up as Zieba, Powers, and Apocalypse leave the ring and the camera turns to the announcers' table.}

BS: Tonight has to be the night of announcements! Zieba, The CSWA, The Dark Carnival, The King of the Cage!

GM: I don't even believe what I've heard.

BS: And Powers, just finding out, has been crowned the NthWA World Champion. Zieba has cornered the SSN and there is nothing they can do about it.

GM: If Gottfried is a smart man he'll get his lawyers on it right away!

BS: Folks, wow, after that I don't know, but from what I can tell the Federation title is on th eline as Sampson faces Cancer and Antonio Corleone.

GM: Cancer looks at this as a payment for the favors he's done for Zieba. If he wins it's a wedding gift for Jade. Corleone looks at this as a must win sitation. In order for him to stay in the EWI he must win that Federation title. I think you know who I'm for.

BS: Well you are the silencer type so let's go to the ring for our fourth title defense of the night!


For the EWI Federation Title

Under Triple Threat Rules

'Mr.Main Event' Rob Sampson | Cancer | "The Silencer" Antonio Corleone

6'2", 260lbs | 6'3", 280lbs | 6'7", 277lbs

Cincinnati, OH | Toms River, NJ | Chicago, IL

'Biggest and the Best' - Clawfinger | 'Heart Shaped Box' - Nirvana | 'Godfather Theme' - Guns and Roses


BS: Well, Sampson and Cancer are and they're at it before Corleone can even get out here!

Cancer blindsides Sampson with a blow to the head. He repeatedly pounds him in the head before whipping him into the corner. Cancer attempts to follow it up with a closeline in the corner, but Sampson stops him with a boot to the face. Cancer spins around, nearly losing his balance. He finally regains himself and turns around to face Samspon but is met with a clothesline, knocking Cancer head over heels. Sampson waits for the former man in black to get to his feet before spearing him back down. Sampson pulls Cancer up and hits a running powerbomb.

BS: Sampson goes up top! He's--

"Godfather Theme" by Guns and Roses cues up and Corleone rushes to the ring, distracting Sampson.

GM: Looks like we've finally got our third man in here!

With Sampson distracted, Cancer has enough time to get to his feet and THROW Samspon from the top turnbuckle to the middle of the ring. Corleone slides into the ring and he and Cancer lay the boots into Samspon. Corleone looks to his left at Cancer and takes Cancer down with the Mafia Kick! Cancer stumbles back and Corleone sends him over the ropes with a devastating clothesline. Corleone follows Cancer to the outside and tosses him into the ring steps. Cancer gets up with a crazed look in his eye and starts moving towards Corleone.

GM: Corleone's not one to back down from a fight.

Cancer punches Corleone but Corlone punches right back. The two men exchange a series of blows to the head when suddenly Rob Sampson appears out of nowhere with a cross body block on the two men!

BS: Oh! All three men are down on the concrete!

GM: Good observation... dick.

BS: Excuse me?

Sampson is the first to recover and pulls Corleone up by his hair. Sampson sets Corleone up and drives him to the concrete with a DDT! Sampson drops an elbow on Corleone. Little does either man know, but Cancer has regained his senses and is moving in for the kill.

BS: Oh! Low blow by The Silencer! And Cancer was going to clothesline Sampson from behind but Sampson fell due to the low blow from Corleone and Cancer took down Antonio Corleone instead!

GM: Oh s***. Corleone's pissed.

BS: Gary!

GM: What? It's a Pay Per View! It's a fu--

BS: Gary! (sigh)

Cancer pulls Sampson up and rolls him into the ring. By the time he gets into the ring himself, Sampson is to his feet. Sampson goes for a dropkick, but Cancer moves out of the way. Cancer gets Samspson in the Cobra Clutch!

BS: Oh... Sampsons going out of it.

Samspon fights it and pushes Cancer into the ropes. Whip by Samspon. Cancer runs into the ref and knocks him over onto the floor. Corleone notices and grabs a steel chair and sneaks into the ring. He nails Cancer first as he's running and then nails Samspon.

GM: Whoohoo! Corleone's king of the mountain!

Sampson gets to his feet only to be met with another chair shot. Corleone slams the chair down to the mat and nails Sampson with a diamond cutter. Corleone covers but the ref is still out!

GM: Dammit! Dammit dammit dammit!

Cancer gets to his feet and grabs the chair. He bashes Corleone as he gets to his feet. Cancer covers, but there's still no ref!

GM: Moron.

Cancer pulls Corleone up and sets him up for the Malignancy (cradle piledriver) but Sampson gets to his feet and uses the metal chair that's still laying in the ring, to take Cancer out! Sampson sends Cancer into the ropes and nails him on the rebound with the Showstopper (superkick). Sampson puts Cancer in the Glass Ceiling (elevated Boston Crab)!

BS: Oh man! Cancer is out! Look at him!

GM: Stick a fork in him! He's done!

However, the ref is still out of it and Corleone sneaks up behind Sampson and takes him down with a belly-to-back suplex, followed by a pumphandle powerslam! Corleone pulls Samspon up and sends him into the corner and follows it up with a splash. Corleone sets Sampson up on the top rope!

BS: SAMPSON GETS HIT! (Stunner from top rope)

Corleone goes to cover but out of nowhere "Ego Buster" Dan Ryan shows up and bashes Corleone in the head with a baseball bat!

BS: What the hell!? What's Dan Ryan doing out here!?

Ryan takes Corleone down with the Humility Bomb and starts walking up the entrance ramp, throwing out obscenities the whole way towards Corleone. The ref gets up just after Ryan leaves.

GM: Oh great! NOW the ref wakes up! That ALWAYS happens!!
