CHAMPIONSHIP
ELIMINATION CHAMBER MATCH
Molly Holly vs. Violette vs. Kirk Angel vs. Akiko Nakano vs. Mike Sanders vs. X (c)
Click here for Part One of Split Second!
Megan: And we're back!! Up next is the most dangerous match of tonight... one somewhat unique in its design.
Paul: Right--the Donnie B version of the Elimination Chamber!
*ding, ding*...
Capetta: `The following match, the Elimination Chamber, is for the EAW Triple Crown Heavyweight Championship. First, the rules.
After all the participants have entered and been locked in their chambers, 2 randomly selected ones will be opened, and those two wrestlers will begin the match. No Holds Barred in this match, and elimination can take place only by pinfall or submission--every five minutes, a new chamber will be opened. Once all wrestlers have been allowed into the match, Chamber 2 will be unlocked. Once we are down to three competitors, Chamber 3 will be unlocked, and the object of the rest of the match will be to gain possession of the Triple Crown Title suspended at the top of the third cage. Whoever obtains that will be declared the EAW Triple Crown Champion!!`
"One Girl Revolution" by Superchic(k) cues up.
Paul: This match will certainly be Extreeeeme!! We have 6 wrestlers participating in this match, and any one could be leaving the match as Triple Crown Champion--including this one, the Cruiserweight Champion.
Megan: If Molly and Mike Sanders carry out their strategy of working together, they could be the ones to beat in this contest...
Capetta: `Introducing first, from Mobile, Alabama, standing 5'7"--weight unknown--she is the EAW Cruiserweight Champion, Molly Holly!!`
Megan: Molly a champion in her own right, and she could leave here with two title belts if she lasts through this entire match.
Paul: IF... a big if. This match will require a great deal of skill, luck, and just being plain hardcore.
"Bodies (xXx Virena Remix)" by Drowning Pool cues up...
Capetta: `And from Los Angeles, California, representing the new World order... standing 6 foot and 120 pounds... Violette!!`
Paul: It's good to see that the nWo has a representative in this match, but only one nWo member and 5 EAW wrestlers?! That's hardly fair.
Megan: Well, there are at least 5 times as many EAW wrestlers as there are nWo members--so proportionately, it's quite fair.
Paul: Well, sure, but the EAW ones will probably gang up on poor Violette.
Megan: But Violette can handle herself--and it's every person for his or her self in this match anyway.
Paul: Yeah--for how long?
Megan: That stands to be seen...
As Violette is locked in her chamber, "Gonna Fly Now" begins to play...
Capetta: `And from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania... standing 6'2" and weighing in at 230 pounds... Kirk Angel!!'
Megan: Kirk had reservations about entering this match, considering his spot was originally slated to go to his sister Erica--but Erica gave him the go-ahead.
Paul: An Olympic hero would be a fine choice for Triple Crown Champ, although I'm quite disheartened about the comments he made towards Michael Connelly--who may very well be the next challenger for the EAW World Title.
Megan: Well, he does make some valid points, whether or not you agree with them.
"Cherry Bomb" by Shonen Knife cues up...
Capetta: `And from Osaka, Japan... standing 5'6" and weighing in at 135 pounds... Akiko Nakano!!`
Paul: Akiko getting a loud ovation here in her home country, despite the fact that she doesn't have much love for Japan and prefers America...
Megan: The former Triple Crown Champion was defeated by X for the title. Now, with renewed focus, she has a chance to get it back! No Pogo-chan tonight... she's going it alone...
Paul: Even without Pogo, SHE'S HARDCORE!! SHE'S HARDCORE!!
Akiko hits the ring, and reluctantly gets into one of the chambers.
"Eroica" (Fifth Movement) by Beethoven cues up.
Capetta: `And from Atlanta, Georgia... standing 6'1" and weighing in at 230 pounds... Mike Sanders!`
Megan: And here comes a man that considers himself the uncrowned EAW Triple Crown Champion, having defeated X in a non-title match that X wanted to be a title match, but Donnie B forbid him from putting the title on the line.
Paul: Well, that may be true, but close only counts in horseshoes, Megan. So a win in a non-title match doesn't make you the champion, end of story. If he wants the title, let him step up and try to win this match.
We cut back to the entranceway, where "Never Gonna Stop" by Rob Zombie cues up, and the crowd erupts in cheers.
Capetta: `On his way to the ring... the defending EAW Triple Crown Champion: currently residing in Los Angeles, California; standing 6'1" and weighing in at 226 pounds... The Wildcaaard... X!!'
Paul: The time may be running out on X's championship tenure... 5 opponents, the Elimination Chamber... and a battle for survival... X is being locked in that cage as Billy Silverman scales up to that 3rd cage to hang the title belt in place.
Megan: This will be an arduous battle, but all the participants have trained long and hard for this... only one will leave as the champion...
The bell rings, and the cages of Violette and X open. The champion and one of his challengers meet in the middle of the ring, and begin to slug it out, X takes control, throwing her into the ropes and catching her on the return with a spinning heel kick. She gets back up, and is boosted up and dropped throat first onto the top rope. X throws her into the corner, hitting a barrage of kicks, and a series of chops to the chest. He goes for a running handstand-rana to follow up, but Violette blocks, powerbombing him to the mat. She then catapults him face-first to the turnbuckle, and hiptosses him to the outside, where he hits his back on the apron before landing on the mat.
Violette climbs out to the floor, hoisting up X and whipping him back first into the side of the Chamber, and she charges into him shoulder first. X is whipped into the steel steps, and Violette stomps away on him.
Pick up, and a Gorilla Press by Violette, who runs towards the side of the Chamber, throwing him back-first against the chamber wall!! Violette grabs the steel stairs, but X gets up and dropkicks them into her face!! He then drops them on her back, and sets up and hits a 2-handed facebuster onto the stairs! He picks her up, and rams her back into the apron, then unloads chops and palm strikes to the chest, and knees her into the midsection, before rolling her back into the ring. He boosts her up and drops her across the throat on the ropes again, and attempts a suplex over the ropes to the outside of the ring--HEADBUTT by Violette though, and she suplexes him back into the ring!! Off the ropes by Violette, but misses the leg drop. X rolls over for the cover...

Tw--NO!
Kickout by Violette, and X picks her up, going for a reverse suplex--Violette lands behind, though, and hammers X in the kidneys, and sets up and drops X with the Pheonix Arrow!!
*BZZZZZZZZZT!!!*
Megan: And that's been five minutes--and Akiko's cage is opening!!
Paul: And Akiko definitely wants a piece of Violette--well, half of her, but she'll take both halves together, still.
Megan: AKIKO CHARGING OUT OF HER CAGE AND SPEARING VIOLETTE!!
Akiko hammers away on Violette, whipping her into the ropes, back body dropping her, and then hitting the ropes herself--driving the elbow into the sternum. X gets up to the turnbuckle, and hits a missile dropkick on Violette as she gets up. Akiko discusses something with X, and then they both pick up Violette, hitting opposite sides of the ring...

Megan: Akiko is a great competitor, but also crafty and sneaky--INVERTED ATOMIC DROP by Akiko on X--
Akiko hits the ropes--double clotheslining Violette and X. She goes for a Snap Suplex on Violette, which is blocked, and Violette crotches her on the top rope, then dropkicks her to the outside. Violette follows, and throws Akiko into the side of the Chamber, and SLAMS HER HEAD between the cage door of Akiko's cage and the frame. She tries to repeatedly slam the door against Akiko's body, but X takes a running leap off the apron, taking out Violette with a plancha. He then locks on a Rear Naked Choke, trapping Violette in the submission as Akiko recovers. Akiko gets closer, and kicks Violette in the midsection, though she refuses to tap. She does start to wriggle free of the hold, and X attempts to adjust it, but is scooped up and bodyslammed by X. Violette catches a rushing Akiko, chokeslamming her out on the floor. Violette picks her up and delivers a Full Nelson Driver, covering her for

Violette and X both kick Akiko in the midsection, and Violette yanks her out of the corner to lock on an abdominal stretch. X volleys kicks into Akiko's midsection...
*BZZZZZZT!!*
Megan: Another five minutes elapsed, and Molly's door flings open!! She dives into the ring. Violette lets go of Akiko to meet her in the center of the ring. Violette has just not made friends with the gals of the EAW.
Paul: Or the boys either--she IS nWo, you know.
Megan: True... Molly taking control, and flings Violette to the ropes--CATCHES HER with the butt bump a la Goldust!
Paul: HA! Well, it's smart to take advantage of a bodily asset, you know.
X and Akiko begin to battle on the outside after Akiko catches X with a surprise heel kick that sends him over the top rope. Violette and Molly battle, and Molly attempts a moonsault after a series of suplexes, but Violette gets the knees up. Violette Tiger Bombs Molly as X hits an X-Ecution on Akiko... double pinfall!!

Megan: That's the nature of the match, Paul...
Violette angrily Gores X, Akiko, then blasts Molly with the steel chair right on the skull--
*BZZZZZT!!*
Megan: Violette leaving the Chamber, and now Kirk Angel released to participate in this match!!
Paul: Only one more until Chamber 2 opens... !
Kirk rushes into the ring, dishing out belly to belly suplexes on Molly, X, and Akiko. He knocks down Molly with a shoulderblock, and fireman's carry's Akiko. He grabs X from behind, German Suplexing him for the bridge--getting!!

Kirk gets up and goes after Molly... Akiko joins him, reluctantly, and they Pancake Press Molly. Double clothesline on X, and Akiko turns on Kirk, hitting a swinging neckbreaker.

Kirk is double teamed by X and Akiko, although Molly stops some of it, and hits X and Akiko each with the chair. She throws X into the corner--hitting a handspring elbow, then Face Bustering him, and Springplexes Akiko, dropping her back-first onto the chair...
*BZZZZZZZT!!*

Megan: Molly and Sanders putting the boots to Kirk... whipping him out of the corner--SPINNING HEEL KICK by X!!

He floats over, getting a two, but Kirk barely kicks out. Molly locks on the Texas Cloverleaf to Kirk, and Sanders joins in, applying a Camel Clutch simultaneously.

He backdrops Sanders hard onto the mat, then drops him with a shin breaker. Kirk goes for a step over toe hold, but Sanders grabs the steel chair, hitting him before he can really cinch it on. He uses the chair on Kirk's left knee, then on his back, and sets it up adjacent to the turnbuckle sitting Kirk in the chair... he climbs to the top rope--but Kirk springs out of the chair, throwing Sanders off the top rope with a Belly to Belly onto the steel chair, collapsing it on the process!!

Kickout!!
Megan: Akiko making the save!! Perhaps to solidify the on-and-off alliance she had with X, because the two of them know that Sanders and Molly are going to be working together, so to have a shot at getting that title back, they need to as well.

Paul: And Akiko versus Sanders and Molly... doesn't look good for Akiko here.
Molly heads up towards the 2nd Chamber, and Sanders and Akiko follow afterwards--
Megan: Then again, maybe everyone here has an even chance...
Akiko suplexes Sanders on the roof of the first chamber, and throws Molly into the wall of the 2nd--but Molly reverses, throwing her into it instead. Molly stomps at Akiko as Sanders tries to reach the third, but Molly stops, grabbing him by the leg, and yanking him down to the same level. Sanders reacts with a tie up, go behind--and German Suplexes Molly onto the roof of the 1st chamber..Akiko gets inside the second chamber, and Sanders follows after. As Akiko climbs the ladder, Sanders follows after. Akiko tries to kick him off, but he grabs her foot, advancing up the ladder, and grabs her midway on the ladder--throwing her against the side of the 2nd Chamber's wall on the way down!! Molly rushes into Chamber 2, driving an elbow down onto Akiko. Sanders climbs up the ladder towards Chamber 3, but Molly briskly follows, poking her head between his legs and grabbing a hold of them--falling backwards--and her and Sanders hit the floor of Chamber 2 hard!!
Akiko climbs up into Chamber 3, and Sanders and Molly follow after--and yank her off the ladder before she can grab the title. Sanders opens a door at the wall of Chamber 3, and grabs Akiko by the seat of her pants, about to throw her out of the door onto the floor of Chamber 2/Roof of Chamber 1. She grabs the sides of the door frames, fighting it. Molly shoves Sanders, trying to push BOTH of them out of the door. Sanders back elbows her, letting go of Akiko, and scoops her up onto his shoulder to hit the BreakOut. Akiko rushes for the ladder to get the title... Sanders climbs up, slugging away at her... takes control, and drops her off the ladder with a Reverse DDT!! Molly goes to the ladder, climbing it... getting close to the title--but Sanders yanks her legs out from under her--she grabs the sides of the ladder to keep from falling all the way down. Sanders climbs upwards, trying to get past her to the title. Akiko dropkicks the ladder--and shakes the two of them loose, who fall off the top and hit the floor of Chamber 3 again.
Akiko begins her ascent again... Molly and Sanders crawl towards the ladder... each scaling opposite sides, nearly making it to the top... and hit her in the back--but Akiko keeps on climbing--touches the belt, about to get a grasp--each of them grab one of Akiko's legs--yank her off the ladder and drive her to the floor with a Spinebuster--but just before it, she grabs a hold of the title, and falls to the floor with the title in her hands!!
*ding, ding, ding*
Megan: ... And AKIKO HAS IT!! JUST BARELY GETTING IT IN TIME!! And we have a NEW CHAMPION!!
Paul: DAMN IT!!!... but that was a HELL of a fall she just took!!
Megan: She's bleeding, battered, and bruised, but she's the the winner!
"Cherry Bomb" cues up again...
Capetta: `The winner of the match... and neeeeeew EAW Triple Crown Heavyweight Champion!!... `
Molly and Sanders look disappointed and shocked as that is announced...
Capetta: 'AKIKO NAKANO!!!'
Paul: So... no one takes a fall from the top of the chamber to the bottom?
Megan: Sick freak. =P
Paul: Okay, okay..it COULD have happened.
Megan: Well, Akiko prevails against very tough odds her. The partnership of Mike Sanders and Molly Holly carried them to the last part of this match, but in the end, they came up short. Molly is still Cruiserweight Champion, but Triple Crown gold continues to elude Mike Sanders... we're going to take a little break, folks. WHEN WE COME BACK, folks, Austin vs. Blink! nWo member vs. ex-nWo member... mentor vs. former-loyal-fan!! NEXT!!
**********************
COMING SOON!
**********************
We return from the promo to the entryway... where a screen has been lowered in front of the entryway.
The film breaking effect occurs... then...
NEW WORLD ORDER!
*KRAAAA-AAAASH!!!!!!*
As the glass shatters, the nWo logo in front of the entryway shatters in the same effect, and behind it is Stone Cold Steve Austin, ready for his match.
Capetta: The following contest, scheduled for one fall, is a grudge match to be held under ECW Rules! Making his way to the ring, from Victoria, Texas... standing 6'2" tall and weighing in at 241 pounds... representing the nWo... STONE... COLD... STEVE... AUSTIN!
Heyman: Take a look at this Megan. THIS is a man with a purpose... to show for DAMN sure that he DESPISES Blink, and will do anything in his power to eliminate her once and for all!
Megan: Austin kicked Blink out of the nWo when he found out she was conspiring from the inside... I thought for sure that Austin would have been a LITTLE more forgiving!
Heyman: Hey, Austin forgot about his patented catchphrase... "Don't Trust ANYBODY!" Now he's going to fix that mistake of his!
Megan: But Blink has her reasons to fight this match as well... Austin had the nWo Brutalize her on Riot Rulz. She wants revenge in the worst way possible!
Heyman: As Austin gives his new salute to the crowd, I have to say this... she's going to have a DAMN hard time doing that!
"Rise" cues up... and the fans erupt in cheers!
Capetta: And his opponent, from Miami, Florida... standing 5'5" tall and weighing in at 110 pounds... BLINK!
As Capetta announces the name Blink, the person Blink blinks into the ring, attacking Austin as soon as she enters.
Megan: Ring the bell already, we're underway!
Heyman: How dare Blink cheap-shot Austin like that! Get her to a corner to re-start the match!
Megan: They can't do that, Heyman. What are you complaining about though, this match IS under the rules of your old fed.
Heyman: Well, that's true enough... I can't wait to see Austin demolish her... once he gets into the swing of things.
Megan: Blink taking it to Austin now, she has him in the corner, and is kicking away at the Texas Rattlesnake!
Heyman: But Austin not going to take this for TOO long... and he just decks Blink right in the jaw, sending her reeling back onto the mat!
Megan: Austin going in now... and stomping away at Blink before she can get back up to her feet... look at the eyes of Austin right now!
Heyman: Those are the eyes of a man with a purpose... to take out Blink from action once and for all!
Megan: Austin lifting Blink up to her feet now... flipping her off... kick for an early Stunner attempt caught by Blink! And a Dragon-Screw leg twist by the young mutant girl!
Heyman: An intelligent move right there... and she's turning it into a figure four! Shades of what we may happen in the submission match later on tonight!
Megan: Austin knowing how to get out of this though... rolling... and manages to reverse the hold... Blink letting go... but the damage has been done!
Heyman: That's where you may be wrong Megan... Austin is already up to his feet... though he does seem to be shaking out a bit of pain.
Megan: Look at this, Blink going behind Austin... roll up attempt!
.
.
One
.
.
TWO... kickout!
Heyman: I don't care WHO you are, you're not going to beat Austin with a Small Package like that.
Megan: But that gave Blink the momentary distraction she needed to catch Austin off guard. Austin turning around now... kick to Austin's gut... and a face-buster by Blink! Another cover...
.
.
One
.
.
TWO... kickout again by Austin!
Heyman: No way is Blink going to beat Austin with a damn X-Factor! Austin seems to be VERY angry now!
Megan: Blink spring boarding off the ropes now, but caught by Austin, and Stone Cold with a power-slam onto Blink!
Heyman: NOW things are starting to get interesting. Let's see how badly Austin decimates Blink now that he has the match going his way.
Megan: Austin climbing up to the second turnbuckle now... and driving the point of his elbow right into the face of Blink. Going for a quick cover now...
.
.
One
.
.
TWO
.
.
Kickout just before Three!
Heyman: If Blink had any sense, she would have just stayed on the mat for that and let Austin defeat her. Austin now going to the outside of the ring, and is grabbing a Steel Chair! We may get shades of WrestleMania X-Seven on Blink!
Megan: Austin bringing in that chair now, and it does indeed look like he's going to do what Heyman is thinking he's going to do. Austin about to swing the chair now... Blink dodging out of the way! Going behind Austin... Sleeper hold... and drops back HARD with it!
Heyman: Blink damn near tried to break Austin's neck with that hold! And she KNOWS that Austin has had some neck problems in the past, even though they have been healed up recently.
Megan: Blink going to the top rope... Moonsault into a Legdrop! Staying on for the cover now!
.
.
One
.
.
TWO...
Heyman: Look at Austin SHOVE Blink off of him! And she goes THROUGH the ropes to the floor on that!
Megan: Blink landing hard onto her chest and face on the outside of the ring, and this will give Austin the time he needs to recover. Though... he's actually rolling out of the ring after Blink?
Heyman: Of course he is! He wants to punish and brutalize Blink as much as he can, and outside the ring is as good a place to do it as inside of the ring!
Megan: Austin grabbing Blink outside of the ring, and now bouncing her head off of the steps! Stone Cold is trying to make Blink bleed!
Heyman: Trying nothing, Blink IS bleeding! And I think it's a justified move by Stone Cold to do such a thing, dealing with this traitor of Blink!
Megan: Oh come off it Paul... Austin picking up Blink over his shoulder now, and going to ram her face first into the ringpost... but Blink falls behind, and it's AUSTIN who goes face-first into the post! And this allows Blink to get back into the ring now.
Heyman: That shows how much of a coward Blink is in this match... hitting Austin with cheap shots, and then just run away!
Megan: That's where you're wrong Paul... Blink isn't running away, she's just setting up something... off the ropes... SUICIDE DIVE RIGHT AT AUSTIN TO THE OUTSIDE!
Heyman: ... who the hell does she think she is, Sabu?
Megan: She's a girl trying to win a match out there Paul! Blink now grabbing Austin and tossing him into the ring, as that's the only place that this match can be won!
Heyman: Blink climbing up to the top rope now... oh no... she wouldn't, would she?
Megan: It looks like... she spins in mid air, and does a Split Legged Moonsault onto Austin! For the cover now!
.
.
One
.
.
TWO... kickout by Austin!
Heyman: That just proves that Blink is no Rob Van Dam, the ORIGINATOR of that move right there!
Megan: Blink not deterred though, going to pick Austin up... getting a jab into the eyes for her troubles!
Heyman: WOW! Austin giving her a DDT as soon as he gets back up! Rare to see that from the Texas Rattlesnake!
Megan: Austin laying back confident onto Blink, for the cover!

Blink managing to get the shoulder up!
Heyman: But Austin is smiling, as if he KNEW that wasn't going to beat her... I think he's just toying with Blink right now.
Megan: That could be a bad move for Austin... but now he's picking up Blink... turning her upside down...
Heyman: And DROPPING her a la Austin's match with Owen Hart! Austin knew JUST how to do it, and he may have damn near broken Blink's neck with that move!
Megan: But Austin ISN'T going for a cover now... he's actually getting Blink back up to her feet now... what else could he be possibly thinking of doing?
Heyman: ... THERE'S your answer, the Million Dollar Dream!
Megan: Austin locking in the hold taught to him by Ted DiBiase back in 1996... and he's got it locked REALLY tightly into Blink! He's shaking her like she was a rag-doll!
Heyman: And I find it great... if Blink's skin wasn't already purple, it would be turning that color right about now! Austin is choking the life right out of Blink!
Megan: Blink is struggling to stay awake in this match... she WANTS to get some measure of revenge on Austin right now!
Heyman: That doesn't matter that much Megan... look at the look in Austin's face! He looks as if he wants to KILL Blink with this hold... and I wouldn't blame him if he did!
Megan: Blink trying to find a way to escape this hold.... there are very few ways to do it. She's actually still on her feet though... she hasn't yet passed out from the pain in this hold!
Heyman: She will soon Megan, just give it time!
Megan: Maybe not Paul... Blink's actually dragging Austin towards the corner while he has the Dream locked onto her... climbing up to the ropes... and pushing off! Austin is pinned while Blink bridges the hold!

THREE... no, Austin breaking the hold JUST before being eliminated!
Heyman: That's a cheap way to get out of the Million Dollar Dream if you ask me, but I do have to admit it probably is the ONLY way to get out.
Megan: Blink is holding her neck in pain as she gets back up, probably just what Austin wanted, so he can get the Stone Cold Stunner onto her with much more effect. Austin going in now...
Heyman: HEY! Blink with a blatant low blow right in front of the referee...
Megan: It's ECW Rules, Paul! Are you forgetting that...
Heyman: Damn it, yes, I did.... but still, that's not right! What will Debra think about this?
Megan: Right now I don't think Blink gives a damn... Blink going off the ropes now... DISPLACEMENT STRIKE! SHE GOT THE DISPLACEMENT STRIKE ONTO AUSTIN! FOR THE COVER!

Heyman: NO! AUSTIN GOT HIS FOOT ON THE ROPE, AND THE REFEREE SAW IT!
Megan: VERY close call right there for Austin... he almost lost this match to Blink's finisher... Blink seems surprised though! She's pulling Austin away from the ropes... going for a Lionsault!
Heyman: But Austin getting his knees up just in time! The wind may have just been knocked right out of Blink right there!
Megan: It does look like that's the case... Blink holding her sternum in pain... bouncing off the ropes as Austin gets up...
Heyman: LOU THESZ PRESS! Austin raining punches down onto the face of Blink!
Megan: Austin going off the ropes, going for what some call the Drunken Elbow... but Blink has had that move well scouted, rolling out of the way, causing Austin to hit nothing but canvas!
Heyman: Austin getting up to his knee... oh no...
Megan: And Blink with a Flying Wizard! Shades of the Hurricane, who we saw earlier tonight! Blink with the cover again!

Austin BARELY getting a shoulder up!
Heyman: Look at the determination of Stone Cold... he wants to win and give the nWo something to be proud of tonight!
Megan: Blink grabbing the side of Austin's head now... going to pick him up... but Austin managing to punch her right in the nose to get her off of him!
Heyman: And as he gets up, he gives Blink a nicely done neckbreaker! But I don't know the logic of not going for the cover there...
Megan: Steve Austin now going to the outside of the ring... and he's grabbing the steel chair from earlier... and another one as well! This doesn't look good for Blink right now...
Heyman: But it looks good for anyone who is a big fan of major wrestling violence! Austin setting those two chairs up in the ring, and has something big planned for Blink!
Megan: Austin taunting Blink as she slowly gets up now... she's on one side of those chairs, Austin's on another... oh no!
Heyman: Austin with his stalling spinebuster onto Blink right through those chairs! And ladies and gentlemen, this match is now over!
Megan: Austin smugly leaning in, going for a cover now!

BLINK SOMEHOW GETTING A SHOULDER UP!
Heyman: What is WRONG with this girl? Does she ENJOY this punishment that she is getting or something?
Megan: Austin seems confused as to what he has to do to put Blink away once and for all... he's grabbing a hold of one of those chairs now... ready to blast Blink with it... BUT SHE MANAGES TO KICK IT RIGHT INTO AUSTIN'S FACE!
Heyman: How is it that Blink is continually able to get up from all this punishment to dish out some to Austin?
Megan: It's the will to show that she's the best... and the adrenaline that's flowing through her veins for revenge! Austin trying to get up... Blink with a dropkick right into that chair! Now she's placing it right onto the chest of Austin...
Heyman: ... there's no way... she... SHE'S DOING A ROLLING THUNDER RIGHT ONTO THAT CHAIR THAT SHE SET UP ON AUSTIN'S CHEST!
Megan: Blink thinks that's done it... but Austin rolls out of the ring before he can be pinned!
Heyman: That just shows how intelligent Austin is right now, knowing he may have been too weak to kick out, he rolls to the outside to prevent losing!
Megan: But Blink seems to want to prevent him from getting ANY chance to rest up, she's going to the top rope... cross body from the top... NO! Austin moves out of the way, and Blink gets a face-full of barricade!
Heyman: Austin isn't done with her yet though! He's picking up Blink... and drops her throat-first onto that barricade!
Megan: Austin grabbing a cable from the ringside area... and wraps it around the neck of Blink! He's trying to choke the life out of her with that television cable!
Heyman: This is reminding me more and more of a Hart/Austin match from late 96 early 97 WWF! And I'm loving every minute of it too!
Megan: Austin pulling back with that cable... and is actually LIFTING Blink off the ground with it like that! But that proves to be costly, as Blink gives him a nicely placed kick right between the legs!
Heyman: Why is Blink OBSESSED with getting Austin there? Is she just jealous because Debra has fun with that...
Megan: I don't think you need to go any further with that, Paul. Blink grinning now... Austin turns around... catches a kick attempt by Blink...
Heyman: AUSTIN with a modified suplex while holding Blink's leg! Now THAT surprised the hell out of me, but it seems to have been very effective!
Megan: Austin now tossing the prone form of Blink into the ring, and slides into the ring...
Heyman: Wait a second, I don't think Austin realizes that Blink has a hold of that steel chair from earlier!
Megan: He does now! Blink slamming that chair HARD into the skull of Austin, causing him to fall to his knees!
Heyman: Look at this though! Austin now grabbing that other chair! This looks like it's going to be a chair-shot war now!
Megan: Blink doesn't realize Austin has that chair... and she gets a shot to the head for her troubles!
Heyman: But if you noticed, Blink hit Austin in the head at the same time! And now both superstars are down on the mat!
Megan: The referee... he's confused at to what he should do... he's putting the count on though, up to 5...
Heyman: Oh no... don't tell me the match is going to end like THIS!
Megan: 8.... 9..... 10! Both superstars are out cold!
Capetta: Ladies and Gentlemen, both Stone Cold Steve Austin and Blink have been knocked out, therefore the result of this contest is a double knock out!
Heyman: ... THIS IS BULLSHIT! Let them get back up to continue fighting!
Megan: That's not going to be happening anytime soon Paul. Blink and Austin being attended to by the EAW Staff... let's cut to a promo while this happens.

EAW SHOPZONE!

WE WON'T RIP YOU OFF LIKE WWE!
____________________
Megan: We're back... and we were just informed that both Austin and Blink are going to be all right... they were taken to separate rooms to be attended to as so they didn't continue fighting...
Heyman: Bah, if I was in charge that match would be restarted right now so we could get a winner.
Megan: We don't have time for that though right now...
Heyman: True... but still...
Capetta: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match is scheduled for one-fall, and will determine the NUMBER ONE CONTENDER for the EAW World Heavyweight Championship!!!!! Making her way to the ring first, from the Red Ribbon Army, weighing in at 125 pounds, "The Digimortal," EIGHTEEN!!!!!!!!!!
"Shock," by Fear Factory cues, without the usual dome-like explosion, and preceded by the ghostly whispers of "New World Order!"
Heyman: I can't believe these idiots are CHEERING for Eighteen! She's an "honorary" member of the nWo, a group these people supposedly DESPISE!!! Shouldn't they be BOOING Eighteen?!
Megan: There are SOME token boos, Paul, but Eighteen has still done a lot to cheer for.... she helped with the rescue efforts after 9/11. She fought and defeat Zarbon, and also fought and defeated Buu, as well. She gained a medal from the UN for that one.
Heyman: Yeah, yeah, Eighteen is a great superhero... maybe she should channel some of that energy into her WRESTLING CAREER, and she'd BE the New People's Champion everybody wanted to paint her as! Instead, she schemes behind the entire EAW booking committee's back, under that stupid Doll gimmick, in a failed attempt to weasel the World Title back from David!
Megan: Hey, just remember, your "beloved" Morrigan assisted her in that conspiracy... I notice you left that part out...
Heyman: Yeah, well, er... Everybody's entitled to a bad decision now and then, I suppose. Even a perfect Goddess... =0\
"Broken" cues up, and the fans boo loudly.
Capetta: And her opponent, from Mars, Pennsylvania, weighing in at 235 pounds, "Code Red" MICHAEL CONNELLY!!!!!!!!!
Megan: Mikey not wasting any time, rushing to that ring, and immediately they come to blows! The ref's calling for the bell, and it looks like this one is underway!
*ding, ding!*
Michael and Eighteen start off brawling heavily, with neither seemingly gaining the upper hand, until Eighteen reverses an Irish Whip and clotheslines Connelly hard. She mops the ring with Connelly, using plenty of power moves such as powerbombs and neckbreakers, but loses her momentum after a few minutes when Connelly dodges a spear attempt and she hits her shoulder hard on the ringpost. From there, Michael aggressively attacks that shoulder, using over-shoulder arm breakers, shoulder breakers, Stranglehold Gamma, arm drags, a missile dropkick into the shoulder, leg drop onto the shoulder from the top rope, a half nelson, and so forth. Michael goes to rip off Teena's top and choke her with it. Soon after he goes to chop her across the chest afterwards, but she angrily shoves him back into the ref who stumbles back and hits his head on a turnbuckle, knocking him out. They brawl their way to the back, where Eighteen viciously slams Code Red into a soda machine, breaking open and spilling soda cans all over him. She sneers, popping open a can of Mountain Dew Code Red, and pours it over his head, before dragging him out to the parking lot. From there he gets a surge of energy, and they take turns bashing each other into cars before Eighteen finally crunches him with a Wreckoner on top of a car. She drags him back to the ring, and tosses him back into it just as the ref comes to, and nails him with a Hurt Conveyor and goes for a pin, which he BARELY kicks out of. She raises him to start beating on him some more, but he gets off a Crimson Crunch Clutch, but she gets to the ropes, breaking the hold. Code Red soon begins nailing her with some stiff kicks to the gut, and starts stomping on her while she rolls around in pain. He takes some time to do a bit of arrogant posturing, a la Jericho, and then goes for a pin with his feet on the ropes. The ref sees this, however, and stops the count. They get into a brief argument, which Eighteen takes the opportunity to sneak in another Wreckoner, but he reverses into a modified Condition Red, and stomps at her a few more times. From there, he does some boot scrapes to her face.
Heyman: And Connelly TOTALLY disrespecting Eighteen right now, standing on her forehead and GRINDING HIS BOOT INTO HER SKULL!!!!!!
Megan: And Eighteen doesn't look to happy about that... Grabbing Connelly's ankle now, and FORCIBLY throwing him aside! Eighteen kippups now, and a Whiplash Screw on Connelly!!!!!! Following up with a 39 Stretch!!!!!
Heyman: Connelly trying to power out... Eighteen lets him go, and switches to a BYTE BLOCK!!!!!!! Turning Connelly over now, going for the pin--CONNELLY KICKS OUT AT TWO!!!!!!!!
Megan: And Eighteen pounding away at Connelly, but---- MACK KNIFE!!!!!!! CONNELLY WITH THE MACK KNIFE, AND A PIN!!!!!!
.

.
.
ONE!!!!

TWO!!!!!

And Eighteen gets the shoulder up!!!!
Heyman: Code Red is furious at the referee now, pounding on the mat in a rapid "One two three" motion! Of course the ref getting uppity about his position, and EIGHTEEN GETS IN WITH A REVERSE FACTOR!!!!!!!!! RUSHING TO THE CORNER NOW, AND A SPLIT-LEGGED MOONSAULT!!!!!!!!
Megan: Eighteen hauling Mikey up to his feet now, and an Irish Whip to the ropes, and a clothesline--NO!!!!!! Mikey dodges, shoving the ref in Eighteen's PATH!!!!!!!
Heyman: Eighteen pulling back as she sees the ref, but it's too late! She blasts him!!! Fortunately for him she held back, last second, but he's still a little woozy--CONNELLY SEES THE OPPORTUNITY, GOING IN FOR A HAMMERLOCK--AND THERE'S THE CONDITION RED!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Megan: MIKEY DRIVING HIS KNEE INTO TEENA'S SHOULDER, AND HOOKING THE LEG!!!!!!!!!!

THREEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
*Ding, ding, ding!*
Capetta: Here is your winner----COOOOOOOOODE REEEEEEEEEED MICHAAAAAAEL COOOOOOONNELLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Heyman: And Eighteen's hopes and dreams just got shot down!!! Giving a look of shock and hurt at Code Red... Will I FINALLY get to see the streak of accursed good sportmanship END?!
Megan: I dunno, Paul... Mikey's offering Teena a handshake...
Heyman: LEVEL HIM!!!!! GIVE HIM THE HURT CONVEYOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Eighteen just sighs, and grabs Michael's hand for a VERY quick handshake, and then rolls out of the ring, with a mysterious smirk that seems to convey disappointment and yet acceptance of the outcome. She walks to the back without a single glance back.
Megan: Well, not quite the retaliatory strike you were hoping for, Paul, but a curt response to her opponent nonetheless. Gotta wonder what's going through her mind right now, losing possibly her last chance to regain the World Heavy Championship.
Heyman: *sigh* Well, Code Red celebrating his victory over Eighteen, ignoring the boos of these stupid Japanese fans... And we've come down to the wire!!!! SOON WE'LL SEE JUST WHO MICHAEL CONNELLY WILL FACE FOR THE WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Megan: Well, it's now time... the match we've been waiting all night for.
Heyman: When two people sign for a championship match here in EAW, it's an affair that we'll remember. In this case however, the stakes are SO much higher.
Megan: Tonight, David Flair, the EAW...
Heyman: Or as he calls it, nWo...
Megan: World Heavyweight Champion will put his championship on the line against Oseiko, in a submission match!
Heyman: Tonight, either Oseiko or David Flair will tap or pass out in the middle of that ring!
Megan: Oseiko won the 32 person championship tournament to earn her spot tonight. David Flair used sneaky methods to get the title... tonight, it's all a battle of wills.
Heyman: It's a battle of wills, it's a test of endurance... tonight, one person's body will give up on them!
Megan: With that, let's go to Gary Michael Capetta for the introductions.
There is a hushed awe throughout the arena, as they all know what's about to happen.
Capetta: Ladies and Gentlemen, the following contest is a Submission Match... and it is for the nWo World Heavyweight Championship!
Heyman: Perhaps after tonight, the EAW World Heavyweight Championship again. Don't know though.
Megan: If Oseiko has anything to say about it, it will be... wait, an nWo Stage-Hand has come up... given Capetta a note... and leaves? What's this about?
Heyman: I heard in the back that David Flair has a special entrance planned... and I think the nWo Guy was just giving Capetta the info on it.
Capetta: Introducing first, hailing tonight from Charlotte, North Carolina... standing 6'2" tall and weighing in tonight at 225 pounds... nWo Leader and the nWo World Heavyweight Champion... "The Legend Killer" DAVID FLAIR!
Megan: Odd... no music cuing for David... what's this about?
Heyman: Just wait Megan, you'll see.
Capetta: And singing David to the ring, with their hit song "Superstar"... SALIVA!
The camera pans over to the entryway... where a stage is now set up... and indeed, the band Saliva is there. The lead singer gets up onto the mic.
"Are you ready people? The New World Order presents Saliva... and here comes a TRUE Superstar!" They start the song now...
Now has come the day that I take the lead and I make you follow.
Toast the champagne cause I came for greed and not for tomorrow.
If it feels good then it feels good and I do it all day.
You want me to play you best bring your brain, you best bring your money. (YEAY!)
Make me a superstar (YEAY!)
No matter who you are.
Razorblade and lines and I walk the line without feeling no one.
Damn my throat is dry, I can't taste the wine from these empty bottles.
Films and magazines its all what I need and all what I planned on.
Where's my limousine? It's just a dream that I won't wake up from. (YEAY!)
Make me a superstar. (YEAY!)
It don't matter who you are. (YEAY! Yeah.)
Make me a superstar. (YEAY!)
No matter who you...
And all of my pills and all of my drinks is makin me, makin me, makin me...
And all that I feel and all that I see is makin me, makin me, makin me.
During that part of the song, a long silver pillar rises up from the entryway, a figure in a black nWo trench coat seen on the top of it, his back to the ring and hunched over for right now.
Cover me in greed, cause you planted the seed when you fed my ego.
Needles and disease for old invincible me like some kind of hero.
Is it no surprise that I'm paralyzed by my fame and fortune?
As I close my eyes and dive into the sky I'm dead 27. (YEAY!)
On the "YEAY!", the classic film break occurs, the screen goes black and white, and the pillar turns around to show David Flair.
As Saliva keeps playing the song, the pillar has steps come out from the front of it, and David walks down them, towards the ring. The pillar goes back down when he's off of it completely.
Make me a superstar. (YEAY!)
It don't matter who you are (YEAY, yeah)
Make me a superstar.
No matter who you...
And all of my pills and all of my drinks is makin me, makin me, makin me.
And all that I feel and all that I see is makin me, makin me, makin me.
And all of my pills and all of my drinks is killin me, killin me, killin me.
And all that I feel and all that I see is fakin me, fakin me fakin me! (YEAY!)
David has reached ringside now, and as Saliva sings the refrain to "Superstar", he gets into the ring, removing his trench coat, and smiles... waiting for something.
Make me a superstar (YEAY!)
It don't matter who you are. (YEAY, yeah)
Make me a superstar (YEAY!)
No matter who you...
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARE!
As Saliva finishes the song, the camera goes back to color, as a massive fireworks display goes off overhead, pyro shooting out and up from all four turnbuckles, and a pyrotechnic nWo Logo appearing behind David as he rips off his nWo Shirt Hogan style! When the pyro dies down after a while... he gets up onto the turnbuckle and gives Saliva the thumbs up.
The lead singer of Saliva smiles to David. "Go show them how it's done, champ!"
Heyman: ... WOW! That was even cooler than David described to me in the back!
Megan: David Flair has shown one thing in this entrance he just had...
Heyman: That he's a great showman and charismatic as hell.
Megan: I was going to say that he's a complete ego-maniac.
Heyman: HEY! When you're the World's Champion, you can afford to be an egomaniac. Look at him... he's styling right now... and he even has replicas of the belt around his waist on his wrists and ring fingers!
Megan: That just proves how much David enjoys being the champion... holding that title seems to be a drug for him. But even so, he might have to kick the habit, so to speak.
Heyman: I don't think so Megan... I think David is ready for this match. And for his opponent.
Megan: Well, Saliva going to the back now... and get ready for a huge ovation, ladies and gentlemen.
"Learn To Crawl" cues up over the speakers, and the fans in the Tokyo Dome rise to their feet in cheers, as Oseiko steps out from the entryway.
Capetta: And his opponent, and challenger... from Hokkaido, Japan... standing 5'7" tall and weighing in at 117 pounds... OSEIKO!
Megan: Listen to that ovation for Oseiko! They love this girl here in Tokyo... and many here believe that she WILL be the next World Heavyweight Champion!
Heyman: Oseiko won the 32 person tournament set up by EAW and now nWo Booker Chris Waters to get a shot at David Flair here tonight... the question is if she's ready to get that title belt.
Megan: If you ask her, and many of the people that love her, she is VERY ready to take the title back to EAW. This is a moment that she has been waiting months, if not years for!
Heyman: Let's not forget the stipulations in this match though... not only the Submission Match rules, which have the ONLY way to win being to make your opponent tap out or pass out... but the stipulation if Oseiko loses.
Megan: That damn bet of David Flair... if Oseiko should happen to lose this match, she will have to join the nWo as a "grunt" as he puts it.
Heyman: Oseiko sliding into the ring now, and STILL being cheered by this crowd in Tokyo.
Megan: As I said Heyman, they love her here in Tokyo, and rightly so! She turns around now... and stares face to face with the World Champion now... who has taken off his title belt.
Heyman: It's just about time... the anticipation is in the air as Oseiko's theme fades...
Megan: Referee David Hebner going over the rules with both superstars now... even though there aren't that many to follow in this match.
Heyman: And who does that give an advantage to?
Megan: Judging by the past actions, David Flair. But don't count Oseiko out... she CAN amaze people. Hebner handing the belt to the timekeeper... and the bell has rung! We're underway!
Megan: David Flair and Oseiko circling each other... David now extending a hand to her?
Heyman: See, David can be a good sportsman when he needs to be...
Megan: Oseiko going for the handshake... oh please... Flair pulling his hand away and stroking his hair with both.
Heyman: WHOOO! David taking after his old man right there! And he's strutting around the ring to add to it!
Megan: David Flair as cocky as his dad was in the ring, and now goes in for a grapple on Oseiko... the two fighting through it... David getting Oseiko to a corner... clean break?
Heyman: Only for a second! The patented Flair chops right to the upper chest of Oseiko! David smirking as he walks away...
Megan: And gets caught with a kick to the back of the head by Oseiko! David rolling up... looking a bit shocked from that! Oseiko seems to be focused in her goal.
Heyman: I can't believe that Oseiko, with her system of honor, would go as low as to hit someone in the back of the head like that.
Megan: Oseiko wants to win the title... David getting into her face now...
*SMACK!*
Heyman: She just slapped the taste out of Flair's mouth right there! And David Flair is livid... and he just nails her...
Megan: NO! The clothesline attempt by Flair ducked by Oseiko... she goes behind... leg trip from behind... going to work on the leg... David rolling to his side and kicking her off of him...
Heyman: And Oseiko gets caught in the jaw as she turns around by a hard right by David! Now the nWo World Heavyweight Champion punching away at Oseiko's face!
Megan: David going for the boxer mode right now in this match... did he just shout "Yo Adrian"? Going for the finish... caught by Oseiko... CRIPPLER CROSSFACE!... David close to the ropes though, so the full advantage can't be taken by the move.
Heyman: Oseiko showing her quick thinking in this match, not letting David's little escapades get too far... for right now anyway.
Megan: Oseiko seems to be telling David not to toy around with her... Oseiko going in for another grapple... David pushing her into the corner... quickly rushing in... up now...
Heyman: Superstar Necklock by David... tribute to the band that sang him to the ring right there... and in this match, he doesn't have to break the hold by a five count!
Megan: Oseiko struggling for breath... but uses her incredible flexibility to kick David in the back off of her! Oseiko holding her throat though... needing some recovery time from that hold.
Heyman: David Flair not letting her get any time to rest though, as he goes right back to work on Oseiko... with CHOPS to the neck!
Megan: David focusing in on that neck of Oseiko... an interesting choice of targets for the World Champ... but Oseiko not letting him get too comfortable, blocking the hand again, into an armbar! And a kick to his face... sending him down... but keeping the armbar on!
Heyman: A classic mat arm-bar submission hold right there! Oseiko is nearly pulling David Flair's arm right out of it's socket while on the mat!
Megan: David fighting for his life out there... rope grabs won't help in this match right now...
Heyman: But a rake of the eyes to Oseiko WILL help him out... and Oseiko holding her face in pain now!
Megan: An underhanded tactic by David Flair to get out of that hold there, but probably the only one that he could have possibly used in this match. Flair holding his arm right now, not at his best.
Heyman: Don't expect that to stop him though... and look at Oseiko exploit that injury! She's grabbing that arm and snapping it down towards the mat with vicious motion!
Megan: An interesting choice of target for the challenger tonight, but it may just be an effective area to strike... as she kicks David in that same arm. Apparently, she's planning on weakening that arm so he isn't able to put on some of his more effective submission holds onto her.
Heyman: That will be an effective strategy IF it works... David fighting to keep her from grabbing the arm... and he head butts her knee! And he's continuing with this style of offense!
Megan: Oseiko holding her leg in pain... David taking her down... Figure Four!?
Heyman: Not quite... this is more of a modified Step-over toehold! He's most likely trying to weaken her leg before he finishes her off!
Megan: David letting go of the hold though... standing up with the leg laced in his own... and just FALLS back with it!
Heyman: That's a good way to break someone's leg right there... which seems to be just what David is doing, as he goes for it again!
Megan: But Oseiko using her other leg to kick David right off of her, and right into the corner HARD! Oseiko has to shake the pain out of her leg quickly if she wants to get some more offense onto the champion.
Heyman: Oseiko hopping on one leg towards David... David ducking under Oseiko... and clips her other leg out! Intelligent mat-work by David Flair!
Megan: David adjusting... almost a Sharpshooter like move, but he's leaning forward with his knee in the back of Oseiko!
Heyman: A great strategy there, wearing down Oseiko's back as much as he can! Weaken the back of Oseiko, and then she won't be able to do as many of her trademark moves as she usually can!
Megan: Oseiko reaching back though... and rolls David through with the hold... and David releases the hold before Oseiko is TOO badly injured in this match. Quick thinking by the challenger there.
Heyman: Oseiko has to get off the defensive though if she wants to win this match... if she keeps on the defensive, I'm almost positive she WILL be on the losing end here.
Megan: And I think Oseiko is taking your advice... as David goes for her leg again, she rolls over his back... and dropping him with a neck breaker!
Heyman: Look at Oseiko hold on with that neck breaker though... she's turning it into a submission hold of her own!
Megan: Innovative movement by Oseiko... but David managing to roll out of that hold... and a thumb to the eye! How low can David go?
Heyman: Hey, there aren't any rules in this match! That move was just as legal as that Neck breaker Submission that Oseiko tried!
Megan: David I think is starting to get frustrated though, as he goes for an attempted knee shot to Oseiko's face, which gets caught and turned into a half crab by Oseiko!
Heyman: But she doesn't have it all the way cinched... and David taking notice of this... he grabs one of Oseiko's legs...
Megan: Oseiko turning over, that's a bad move right there! David quickly locking in the Figure Four Leg lock! The patented hold of David's father Ric Flair!
Heyman: And just how fitting would it be for David Flair to win this match here with his father's own move!
Megan: In David's eyes, it would be VERY fitting... Oseiko falling back in pain... David seems to have perfected this hold right now... if Oseiko can't get out she might have to give up.
Heyman: There is nobody better to have do the Figure Four Leg lock than a Flair... as proven right here!
Megan: Oseiko is going to have to turn this hold over if she wants to get out of it... she's trying desperately, but David with his hands to the sides to prevent it from happening!
Heyman: That's what makes the Flairs SO dangerous when they put on the hold... they lock it in tightly and prevent the turn-over!
Megan: Oseiko starting to sit up though... the pain is VERY visible on her face... she's reaching for the ropes!
Heyman: What good will that do? There's no rope breaks in this match!
Megan: She's got a hold of that bottom rope... and now is climbing up the ropes! She's using the ring ropes as a rope ladder... she has the top rope now... pushing off... and hits David with a head butt!
Heyman: ... well, I have to admit that's ONE way to break out of a Flair Figure Four... and now David rolling out of the ring to recuperate from that exchange.
Megan: Oseiko showing that she's not going to go light in this match right now! Oseiko getting back to her feet, going for the Kumo No Amimono... David Flair fighting with his life to get out of it though!
Heyman: David pushing Oseiko with his legs into the turnbuckle! David managing to avoid some major pain right there... going to spear Oseiko into the corner now...
Megan: Oseiko leaping out of the way onto the turnbuckles though, causing David to spear the ring-post! David between the top and second rope... and now Oseiko putting him into a modified Kumo No Amimono while he's trapped!
Heyman: Come on David, you can get out of that somehow! Fight for your title, David!
Megan: David using his leg strength again, and pulling with all his might... and Oseiko rolling right back up to her feet, kneeing David right in the face as he turns around!
Heyman: David falling to the mat... and now Oseiko going for an STF! She's quickly trying to end this match, but David clambering for the ropes right away.
Megan: Oseiko trying to pull David away from the ropes... he rolls her up in a small package... what good will that do?
Heyman: Wait a second, he's grabbing her around the neck... that's a Dragon Sleeper!
Megan: David's shouting now... "This is how you do it, Erik?"
Heyman: OH! I see... David's going to go for the Compressor, a move that Erik O'Reily's father, "Golden" Patrick O'Reily invented!
Megan: David putting his right knee into the back of Oseiko now as he holds in this Dragon Sleeper... and now reaching for a leg... but Oseiko ax-kicking him in the head to break up the hold!
Heyman: She's lucky that she had enough ring sense to know what David was planning for her... otherwise she would have HAD to tap out to David!
Megan: Oseiko shaking off what David was having planned for her though, rushing towards David... but he drops her onto the middle rope... getting up now... giving her a 619?
Heyman: Actually, since David was announced from Charlotte tonight, it would be called 704!
Megan: Thank you, Mr. Fountain of useless information. David thinks he has control now... look at him confidently strutting around the ring like Oseiko is out cold.
Heyman: Well, David DOES weigh more than Rey Mysterio does, so that move WOULD have a lot more of an effect on Oseiko.
Megan: David turning around... and Oseiko is back up to her feet! David swinging at her for a right hand, his arm is caught, and she turns it into an arm-bar behind the back!
Heyman: That's a very simple submission hold, but it's also a very painful one!
Megan: Oseiko modifying it though... into her Rolling Butterfly Lock! She's holding it on VERY tightly too!
Heyman: Damn where the hell did THAT come from?
Megan: The skills of Oseiko are becoming more fine-tuned every day, Paul. Oseiko holding that hold in... David struggling to get free of it though....Oseiko just letting go though?
Heyman: That could be a big mistake by Oseiko in this match... she had a chance to put David Flair away for the win... but she lets him go!
Megan: Oseiko telling David to get back up... she apparently has some pent up frustration against David. David getting back up to his feet now... and nails him right in the jaw with a nicely placed Palm Strike!
Heyman: And yet Oseiko STILL not going for the win... she's waiting for David to get back up again... I quite frankly don't understand this strategy by Oseiko...
Megan: Whatever it is though, it seems to be an interesting plan by the challenger. Oseiko going for a double leg takedown! And there's her Sunrise Submission Five-Lock! One of her trademark submission moves right there!
Heyman: This is a move that could quite easily break someone's leg if you're not careful, and that's exactly what it seems like Oseiko wants to do to the champion!
Megan: David Flair in severe pain now, and is trying to fight to get out of this hold now... twisting his body like a madman to get out!
Heyman: Look at this! David Flair using his leg-strength to flip Oseiko over to get out of the hold! David Flair showing that he has the heart, desire, and will to remain the nWo World Heavyweight Champion!
Megan: But Oseiko not being deterred from her goal to bring the belt back to EAW... she's going back in to strike... THE HELL?
Heyman: David kicking her in the gut to take her off guard! And there's a Stone Cold Stunner by David Flair... and he's smiling towards the back, giving a thumbs up!
Megan: David probably giving props to Stone Cold Steve Austin, and now he's getting back to his feet... now what? David's climbing up to the top rope!
Heyman: David to the top rope now... fingers pointing up to the sky! And a flying elbow drop right to the sternum of Oseiko!
Megan: David Flair pulling out all the stops, showing his so called "Legendary Skills", first a Stunner, then the Macho Man Elbow Drop... oh no, not this now!
Heyman: David Flair with a hand to his ear... off the ropes... leg drop... NO!
Megan: OSEIKO MOVING OUT OF THE WAY RIGHT AWAY... but she's still down on the mat in pain from the Stunner and Elbow Drop. Oseiko needs to take some time to recover... David going in to make sure she doesn't get a chance to though.
Heyman: Of course not, David Flair wants to win this match! He's going in right now...
Megan: And Oseiko waiting for him, catching him with her Sit-down Jawbreaker! Oseiko quick to go around... a Triangle Chokehold put onto David now while he's on the mat! Oseiko has the Triangle Choke locked into David Flair right now, and looks to make David Flair pass out from that!
Heyman: David's face is now starting to change skin color... turning almost blue now as Oseiko locks the legs around the neck of the champion!
Megan: David Flair... what is he doing? Is he actually trying to fight up to his feet?
Heyman: Yes he is... David fighting through the pain of this Triangle Chokehold... and he's climbing up the ropes with Oseiko!
Megan: Oh my god... he can't be thinking...
Heyman: HOLY SHIT! David Flair just climbed up to the top ropes, and just jumped off... slamming Oseiko's back HARD onto the arena floor!
Megan: David Flair tried to pretty much break Oseiko's back with that move... and unfortunately, that will buy David Flair enough time to think up a new game plan... wait a second, what's he doing? David Flair going under the ring...
Heyman: I think he's looking for some of the weaponry that was left over from the Extreme Title match earlier tonight... if there IS any.
Megan: He's got a hold of something... oh no... he's got cuffs! And judging by the size of them, I'd say they're for Oseiko's legs!
Heyman: David Flair showing his resourcefulness in this match right now, and also showing that he will do ANYTHING to keep the World Championship in the nWo... and around his waist!
Megan: David Flair tossing the battered Oseiko back into the ring now... grabbing her legs... and crotching her on the ring post!
Heyman: But that's not all that David is planning... here's a classic spot that we haven't seen in a good long time... Ring Post Figure Four!
Megan: David showing his support for Bret Hart from earlier tonight... holding that Figure Four on the post for as long as he damn well pleases!
Heyman: Wouldn't it be interesting if David Flair managed to get Oseiko to submit to this very hold?
Megan: David seems to not want that though Paul... he just let go of the hold, leaving Oseiko in a heap in the ring. Now... David going for those leg-cuffs that he brought out... he can't be thinking what I think he's thinking, can he?
Heyman: Oh yes he can be thinking that Megan... David Flair now locking Oseiko's legs together with those cuffs, and since they're on the ring post, she has nowhere to go, no way to escape!
Megan: What's next now though? David Flair grabbing the ring bell from the timekeeper, tossing that into the ring, as well as taking a steel chair from ringside!
Heyman: Hey, it was never stated in the rules that you had to get a submission by a submission hold! David looks like he wants to BRUTALIZE Oseiko into submission!
Megan: David raising that chair now, and strikes down... but Oseiko blocking it with her hands! And she just flings it out of her hands to the outside!
Heyman: David looks surprised, come on David, don't... NO!
Megan: Oseiko punching David Flair right in the part Kelly enjoys most! David Flair doubling over in pain, and this leaves time for Oseiko to notice her situation...
Heyman: But how can Oseiko possibly get out of this situation? Her legs are cuffed along the ring post... and she's on her back on the mat!
Megan: ... there's your answer Heyman! Oseiko using her martial arts skills to chop the chain right off of her cuffs... and now her legs are free! Chopping the cuffs themselves off now, as David Flair getting back up to his feet... Oseiko going for a Hurricanrana...
Heyman: DAVID CATCHES HER... AND IN ONE SWIFT MOTION AN ANDERSON SPINEBUSTER RIGHT ONTO THE RING BELL!
Megan: Oseiko holding the small of her back after that... that's got to be the worst place to land... there's only a small layer of fat covering that area, and Oseiko doesn't have that much fat to protect her!
Heyman: That just shows how much of an intelligent competitor David Flair is... going JUST for the right spot in the back on the challenger to get an advantage of the match!
Megan: David Flair picking up Oseiko again... and ANOTHER SpineBuster onto that ring bell! Flair has blasted Oseiko with it... now going over to her legs!
Heyman: David just shouted "This is for you, Bret!" David Flair going for the Sharpshooter... and he's got it locked in now! And he's doing it WAY better than The Rock does... almost as well as Bret Hart does!
Megan: This is a move that has garnered both Bret AND the late Owen Hart many championships, and it looks like David is planning to retain HIS championship with the very same hold!
Heyman: And how appropriate would THIS be? On the night the legendary Bret Hart retires, David Flair retaining his championship by doing a tribute to the Hit Man!
Megan: I'm not sure if that's really David's motivation for putting the Sharpshooter onto Oseiko, but even if it's not, it makes for an effective hold! Oseiko trying to fight out of it... David letting it go though...
Heyman: ... only because he wants to prove that he's his own man! David Flair now going for the Legendary End... and now he has THAT locked in on Oseiko!
Megan: If Oseiko can not find a way to escape from the Legendary End, this match WILL be over! That specially made submission hold of David Flair has been finely tuned ever since he debuted it over a year ago...
Heyman: And it's proven by the show of pain on the face of Oseiko! Oseiko can feel not only the pain in her leg and ankle, but the pain at knowing that her dream of winning the World Championship is quickly going down the drain right in the middle of the ring!
Megan: Oseiko trying desperately to fight her way out of this hold... but David Flair not letting her roll out of it! This match looks like it's going to be over!
Heyman: And how sad a day it is for Oseiko, having to give up not only this match, but her dream of being the Champion of the World!
Megan: Oseiko not planning on tapping out though... she's STILL trying to fight her way out of the Legendary End!
Heyman: She's not going to make it... she's going to have to tap out!
Megan: She's about to tap out... but no! She managed to roll out of the hold, and gives David Flair a stiff kick to the back of the head!
Heyman: But that's not the whole story right now... Oseiko hit her head on the ring-bell! BOTH of them are down and in pain!
Megan: The referee is just stunned... he doesn't know what to do right now in this match... and
*KRAAAA-AAAASH!!!!!!*
Heyman: Well, THIS is an interesting twist!
Megan: What is Steve Austin doing out here? I thought that he'd be resting after his match with Blink earlier tonight.
Heyman: It looks like Austin wants an up close and personal view for the ending of this match!
Megan: ... an up close and personal view doesn't need to involve Austin going into the ring... and now Austin is attacking Oseiko!
Heyman: Well, he IS nWo... and nWo looks out for nWo! Look at David Flair as he recovers, smiling in the corner.
Megan: David Flair saying he loves Austin... and I think I know why... Austin is now softening Oseiko up for him to get the win in this match.
Heyman: There's nothing wrong with that, if you ask me. David Flair going to join Austin in the... WHAT THE HELL!?
Megan: AUSTIN HITS DAVID FLAIR WITH A STONE COLD STUNNER OUT OF NOWHERE! AUSTIN HAS JUST BETRAYED THE NEW WORLD ORDER!
Heyman: I can't believe the AUDACITY of Steve Austin to do such a thing... now he's rolling out of the ring... what's he pulling out?
Megan: ... that's paint remover! Stone Cold grabbing the World Title belt, and pouring the paint remover all over it! He's removing the nWo graffiti from the EAW World Heavyweight Championship!
Heyman: Isn't that a little premature though? Oseiko hasn't won the match yet, there's STILL a chance that David Flair can pull out a win here!
Megan: Doesn't look like it from what we see in the ring right now... Oseiko's back up to her feet, and David just struggling to get up now... Oseiko grabbing a hold of David's ankles, and is going for the Kumo No Amimono!
Heyman: But look at David Flair! He STILL has enough presence of mind to fight this hold... and Oseiko is not able to get it...
Megan: OSEIKO GOING FOR A LEGENDARY END! She just changed her mind in mid move, and now has the Legendary End locked onto David Flair! And look at the pain in David Flair's face!
Heyman: Normally David Flair would be able to get out of this hold, but I don't think that he has enough presence of mind to remember how!
Megan: Oseiko holding it on tightly... the whole Tokyo Dome is watching right now... DAVID'S TAPPING OUT!
Heyman: WHAT!?
*DING DING DING!*
Capetta: Here is your winner, and the NEW EAW World Heavyweight Champion... OSEIKO!
Megan: Oseiko has done it once again! She has defeated David Flair in Tokyo... but even better, she has won the top prize in the business!
Heyman: I can't believe this... now Austin grabbing the belt from the ringside area, and handing it to her! That damn turncoat!
Megan: Stone Cold Steve Austin calling for a few beers... giving Oseiko one... and a toast to the new champion!
Heyman: But look at this! David coming into the ring with a steel chair... going after Austin!
Megan: Austin ducking the chair though, Oseiko wrenching it out of David's hands... David looking to attack Austin...
Austin and Oseiko give each other a "Yeah, right!" look as David swings, before they both punch David in the face, causing the former World Champion to roll out of the ring. Kelly Connelly-Flair is quick to come out, pulling her husband away from the ring. "This isn't over yet, you son of a bitch!" he shouts at the top of his lungs.
Austin's reply to that is the classic one finger salute and a smirk.
Megan: And what a message left to the nWo's Leader! David being pulled out of the ringside area, as Oseiko living in the moment of being the new champion!
Heyman: Well, at least for once, Austin isn't planning on stealing someone's moment of glory. He's leaving the ring to let Oseiko enjoy this...
Megan: And justifiably so. This is Oseiko's moment... look at the tears of joy in her eyes right now. She has finally...
As soon as Austin is in the back, "This Is The New S**t" by Marilyn Manson cues up... and the crowd goes into stunned silence as the Lunatic Fringe comes out.
Heyman: Oh no... this doesn't look good for the new champion. Remember what happened last time Ryokami came out at a Pay Per View after the championship match.
Megan: Don't remind me... we almost had to deal with Ryokami as the EAW World Heavyweight Champion... The Lunatic Fringe surrounding the ring... Ryokami sliding in...
Heyman: Oseiko looking confused as Ryokami stands in front of her...
There's a silence in the arena... as Ryokami extends his hand out to Oseiko! Oseiko blinks... then smiles, taking it... and then the champion gets her hand raised by Ryokami!
Megan: ... I... wow... this... this is amazing...
Heyman: But what does this mean Megan? Why did Ryokami raise the arm of Oseiko there?
Megan: I don't know what to make of this either, Heyman... the Fringe leaving now... going to wherever they came from... and now Michael Connelly coming out!
Heyman: Oh man, this could be interesting. They may be husband and wife, but now they're also Challenger and Champion for the next PPV...
Megan: ... but for tonight, the former prevails! Michael hugging his wife to celebrate her win! Look at this... Kirk Angel now coming out... glaring at Mikey... saying something... both smiling now... and raising the hands of Oseiko!
Heyman: Geez, those four brats of Oseiko coming out...
Megan: Natsume, Koji, Takashi, and Myoko all coming to the ring, to celebrate with their teacher! Blink now coming out... Akiko coming out... THE GIRLS OF GOTH after a long time away! Hurricane and Molly Holly as well... all to give Oseiko their support!
Heyman: ... ugh... this is as sickening to me as Unforgiven 2001 to me!
Megan: Well, as Oseiko celebrates her win, we're now out of time! For Paul Heyman, I'm Megan Eko... we're out of time! Good night from Tokyo!
