Ben Richmond: Ladies and gentlemen... it is now time... for tonight's MAIN EVENT!!!
*** Big pop ***
Richmond: This match is for the GTW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!!! Introducing first... THE CHALLENGER...
*** Boos as the Foo Fighter's "My Hero" starts up... ***
Richmond: From Elmira, New York... he weighs in at 238 lbs... standing at 6' 1"... the man is a living legend... a 15 TIME WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION... truly deserving of his moniker... the "SUPERSTAR"... STEVIE GRAHAM!!!
*** Graham walks out, alone... flipping his hair, yelling something out to the crowd. He hops over the top rope upon reaching the ring, and raises his hands high to a chorus of boos. He just kind of shrugs off the fans, and keeps a big smile on his face... he adjusts his knee brace, and begins to warm up next to the ropes... ***
Papa: Well folks, Stevie Graham... he may be the biggest name that the GTW has...
Crocker: No doubt about it Papa! Graham is global... he's a superstar!!! Japan, U.S... WWO, WWCW, UOWN... he's been in all of them, he's been on top in all of them... and now, the GTW is next!
Papa: A sort of "Worlds Collide" feel to this one... as Graham may be a huge superstar, of course... but he is going into the match against the best that the GTW has to offer... it's world champion, ICE.
Crocker: True enough Papa... Ice is probably the best... he's not a super stupendous omnipotent ring beast, but he is pretty damn good I'll admit... but he's NEVER been in the ring against a star the caliber of Graham... he doesn't know what he's going up against!
Papa: Well... we'll see about that... Ice has turned all challengers away since winning the GTW title a couple of months ago... so will Graham be the one to finally win the strap? Or... will he just be another bump in Ice's road to destiny?
Richmond: And his opponent... he is the CHAMPION...
*** Huge pop as Creed's "Bullets" starts up... ***
Richmond: From Fairbanks, Alaska... he is the GTW World Champion... accompanied to the ring by Danielle Angel... ICE!!!
*** Everybody's on their feet as Ice walks out, belt around his waist, Danielle at his side... ***
Papa: And here's the champion!!! He's in the ring... handing the belt over to the official... and... WE'RE READY TO GO!!!
DING DING DING!!!
Papa: Graham and Ice lock it up... Ice with the strength advantage, taking control... pulls Graham into a headlock... screaming to the crowd... Graham though... pushes off... sending Ice into the ropes... the champ coming back on the rebound... OH!!! Graham goes for a clothesline but Ice ducks it!!!! Ice off the ropes... Graham... charges off the ropes himself... WOAH!!! Ice with a powerslam!!! What a move!!!
Crocker: That was good Papa... but Ice's high impact style... he's playing right into Graham's hands here, I can feel it!!
Papa: Ice smiling at Graham as he lays on the mat... but the Superstar kips up to his feet! What an athlete!
Crocker: You better believe it!
Papa: I remember seeing Stevie Graham's first matches here in the states... just about four years ago... and I knew he had it in him... the potential to be a legend... and he's already MORE then fufilled that promise!
Crocker: Yeah... and what has Ice done? Kicked Will Lavin's ass a bunch of times? He's NOTHING!
Papa: Well... he's GTW World Champion... and he's beaten just about everybody thrown at him...
Crocker: Except Graham! Remember Papa??? A month or so ago... Graham won that non-title match!
Papa: Well... under interesting circumstances, certainly... back in the ring now, Graham has taken control now... has Ice down in the corner... and... WHAT A CHOP!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Papa: Another!!!
Crocker: WHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Papa: Real professional, Crock... and... OH!!!! Ice strikes back with a chop of his own!!!
***WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!***
Papa: ANOTHER!!!

Crocker: Dammit!!! What's with all these "Whoos?" It gets old, y'know!
Papa: Whatever you say Crock... as now... Ice hitting Graham with some right hands... sends him into the ropes again... ducks for a backbodydrop... but Graham saw it coming!!! He leapfrogs Ice... and... BAM!!! Neckbreaker!!! The champ is down!
Crocker: Ha ha! Nice!

Crocker: Ouch! I felt those fists from here!
Papa: Ice following the challenger out... and... WOAH!!! Graham grabs him by the tights, pulling him headfirst into the guardrail!!! Graham on his feet... and... has Ice... OH!!! Snap suplex!!! Nice move!
Crocker: You're damn right it's nice Papa... Graham is a GOD!
Papa: Well... he is a former Tournament of Gods winner... but Graham now... pulling Ice up... and going for a German suplex... NO!!! Ice with an elbow!!! He knocks Graham in the face... and... snapmare!!!
Crocker: Get it back in the ring!
Papa: The ref agreeing with you Crock... pushing Ice back inside... Graham following... Ice kicks him as he tries to get to his feet... and... waiting for him to get up... bodyslam in the center of the ring!!!
