all goes dark...
:: "Only God Knows Why" by Kid Rock begins to play. Suddenly the grey XBWL logo shows again and begins to flash Red and Blue, before finally settlling on the navy blue XBWL Logo we have all come to know. It cracks down the middle and then FRIDAY FRACUS appears. Several scenes from the XBWL History are shown. Many superstars, many World Title wins.... From the very beginning when the XBWL was born from the ashes of the USWL, through the history... From Michael Andrew's triumphant's reigns all the way to the evil damnation cast on the title by Legacy and the WWFW. The counter balance of Matt Austin, Jack Diamond and the new generations of Lincoln Stone and Krueger Roberts.. The XBWL logo twists in the middle of the screen as the Kronos Klan, Armageddon, Evil Empire. Elements of Supremacy, WWFW, High Intensity, The Alliance, Darkness, and International Army are showcased. After a brief run down the scene opens to a jam packed XBWL Arena. It closes in on Johnny Diamond and The Wrestling Doctor sitting at the announcer booth. ::
Doc: Welcome fans! Welcome everyone! Welcome to the XBWL! MAN It feels good to say that WOOO!!!
Johnny Diamond: We're back on the air Doc. We're back on the freaking air! How long has it been!?
Doc: Man, a long time. A long, long time.
Johnny: Three JAM PACKED shows. What better way to kick off the Final World Tour of the XBWL? What better way to bring it to a close?
Doc: You're right, It's the perfect ending... The XBWL World Heavyweight Championship will be decided when all former champions will step in the ring this weekend and fight for a shot at walking out of here with the belt...
:: Hail To The Chief by the U.S. Air Force Band plays over the speakers and the former owner and President of the XBWL, Johnny Macaroni steps out from behind the curtain. He waves to the fans as they hit thier feet with an amazing pop for the living legend of the wrestling world. He walks out smiling and is carrying a stack of papers. He wears a traditional business suit with his brown hair slicked back. He walks down and climbs in the ring, looking around to the capacity crowd before finally taking the microphone to his mouth. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Did you ever think you would see this again?
:: The crowd breaks out in a deafening XBWL chant ::
Johnny Macaroni: Neither did I... Now we've got a hell of a line up for you tonight. I know you will appreciate it. But I'd like to talk a little about the history of the XBWL. I founded this great organization with a dream that I would be able to entertain the fans and still be able to pay my bills. It's been way up and above that. For many years I have collected royalties and paychecks for my work around here.. It seems like the XBWL Video library is still in high demand! Well, Tonight... I would like to announce that I finally had enough money to buy back the XBWL arena!
:: The crowd goes crazy, Not sure what to make of it, but happy that Johnny Macaroni is in charge. ::
Johnny Macaroni: For many years I fought for control of this place and tonight I finally got the chance to correct the mistake I made all those years ago when I sold part of my stocks. Tonight, I am once again in control of the XBWL, and just like it used to be, It's going to be a HELL OF A SHOW! The first round of the XBWL World Title tournament will be tonight! That's right!! You will get to see former XBWL World Heavyweight Champions compete tonight as well as some of the best talent we ever had. Let's get ready XBWL... It's time to make it happen!
:: Johnny Macaroni leaves through the ropes as "Hail To The Chief" plays again. He walks through the curtains as the crowd hits insane chants for the XBWL. ::
Doc: What an awesome reception to the founding father of the XBWL. The man who was started it all, Johnny Macaroni. It looks like he is the full fledged owner of the XBWL once again. Screw the corporate crap, screw the backstage, screw the angles. That man is the boss, he signs every check here tonight and he is the one taking home the bank once again!
Johnny: I bet he got this dump for a steal.. I mean what was the bank going to do with the XBWL Arena really? Were they going to hold Hocky Games? Bingo? Come on...
:: The camera fades to the back. Doors open and four men walk in together. For a moment silence and then you can hear from the capacity crowd a thunderous ovation as Awesome Australian, Legacy, "Superslam" Ted Wilder and Lizzard walk in together. They all seem to be in good spirits talking and carrying on as the camera fades back to Johnny and Doc. ::
Doc: OH MY GOD! Did you just see that?! DID YOU JUST SEE THAT!?
Johnny: ARMAGEDDON JUST WALKED IN TOGETHER OH MY GOD!
Doc: Those men were at the foundation of the XBWL.. People like that.. Their blood, sweat and tears made the XBWL! And over the years they maintained thier friendship. But they split ways a LONG time ago. I never in my wildest, NEVER did I think I would see Armageddon together again. That's stuff dreams are made of Johnny!
Johnny: Wow, now all we need is for the Kronos Klan to reunite in the center of that ring tonight!
Doc: Oh god... Please no.. NOT the Kronos Klan...
Johnny: Don't think you could handle it?
Doc: The Kronos Klan is history... The next thing you'll tell me is that you want the WWFW to reunite and while they're spray painting everyone, the Guardians of Destiny can burn down the Arena?
Johnny: I'll pass, but it would be great to see the Klan again.
Doc: Some things are best left alone...
Johnny: Well Doc. I'd say it's time to get the party started!
:: "Rhythms" by Sum 41 fires into the XBWL Arena and Butch steps out. The fans cheer, seeing thier old favorite underdog in person! He has on a T-Shirt for the XBWL show. He is dressed in red tights. His hair is cut short and he's clean shaven. He laughs a bit at the fans cheers and continues on down the ramp. He slides into the ring and motions for the crowd to bring on the cheers. ::
Doc: We all remember Butch. He had some memorable matches here in the XBWL. He came really close to capturing the World Title at one time.
Johnny: It's taking the fans a little bit to get back in the groove. I think they are just so exciting that they are seeing action, they don't care who they are cheering for
:: "End Of The Rainbow" by E-Town Concrete blares over the speakers and we see the red and yellow lights flash as Sunbird steps out. He immediatly starts playing to the crowd, all his old fans immediatly behind him. He runs down to the ring and slides in. Butch stands in his corner watching as Sunbird grabs a microphone. ::
Sunbird: That's right XBWL! Now let's get it started right! Did I hear some of you cheering for this fool? Do you remember who he was? What was his biggest thing? Fueding with his alter ego Roberto Blade? Come on guys, Let's hear it one more time for old times sakes....
BUTCH SUCKS!
BUTCH SUCKS!
BUTCH SUCKS!
:: The crowd immediatly picks up thier old favorite chant and this immediatly IRRATES Butch who rushes across the ring and starts attacking Sunbird as the bell rings. The referee walks over and tries to get Butch to come back outta the corner but Butch just pushes him aside getting a louder boo from the crowd. Sunbird finally pushes Butch back and pulls himself back to his feet. ::
Doc: Doesn't look like they are gonna waste much time. Sunbird and Butch kicking off Friday Frasco!!
Johnny: My money is on Butch, He's pulled it out some in the past and he's really shown us some drive and emotion when the going gets tough.
:: Sunbird unloads with a right hand, stunning Butch. Sunbird rushes forward with a clothesline and takes Butch down. Butch immediatly is back to his feet and he catches Sunbirds next punch and turns it over into a falling armbar. Sunbird's shoulder slams hard into the mat. Butch twists his arm as Sunbird struggles towards the ropes and finally achieves his goal. ::
Doc: Referee forcing the break now. Sunbird's back up.
Johnny: Here they go again!
:: Butch kicks Sunbird in the stomach and rushes with a clothesline sending Sunbird to the outside. Butch then leaps to the top rope and uses it as a springboard to cross body the staggering Sunbird on the outside. They both crash to the floor and the fans at the ringside area begin chanting BUTCH BUTCH BUTCH, but the chant doesn't carry into the rest of the arena. Butch is immediatly up and goes to get a chair. ::
Doc: Butch wasting no time here, He wants to put Sunbird away.
Johnny: Go Butch, Give it to him HARD!
Doc: I worry about you sometimes...
:: Sunbird stands up to his knee's and Butch rushes forward, slamming the chair into Sunbirds skull. Sunbirds eyes roll back and Butch drops the chair He pulls Sunbird up and rolls him into the ring... Butch rolls in after him and immediatly goes for a cover.. ONE!!! TWO!! NO! Kickout! Butch is in shock as he stands back up and stomps Sunbird again. ::
Doc: Not going to put this extreme mastermind out that easy. He's been hit with many a chair shots that put that one to shame.
Johnny: Butch was just getting a little premature, but he's still in control of the match so don't expect your boy to do a whole lot because he kicked outta a chair shot...
:: Butch stomps Sunbird again and then picks him up and prepares for a DDT! Butch signals to the crowd and suddenly Sunbird grabs his arm and spins it around, reversing the headlock into an armbar and then sweeping the back of Butch's leg sending him to the mat. Sunbird holds the armbar before leaping and spinning Butch's elbow, letting go as he almost snaps Butch's elbow out of place. Butch howls and holds his arm as Sunbird immediatly stomps it into the mat and twists his boot on it, causing more pain. ::
Doc: Butch looks to be in trouble now, I think Sunbird almost ripped his arm off!
Johnny: A minor setback, Trust me.
:: Sunbird turns and looks to the crowd who is firmly behind him and then lifts Butch up. He takes him over and sits him on the top rope and climbs up. He pulls him over and performs a perfect Superplex, and rolls over pinning Butch. ONE! TWO! THR- NO!!!! Butch kicks out! Sunbird stands back up and staggers a bit, still confused from his trip off the top. Butch low blows him with a punch to the groin and follows through with a small package! ONE!- NO! Sunbird kicks out immediatly! Sunbird now back to his feet, and he seems to be cleared up now. Butch stands up still holding that arm a little, shaking it out. They lock up in the center of the ring and Sunbird pushes Butch back into the corner and unloads with a loud chop to his chest!
Doc: This is getting to be a close match, I don't know who's gonna win at this point. It's anyone's game right now.
Johnny: No, It's Butch's game. Trust me on that one. Look at how he is controlling the match!
:: Sunbird backs up and delivers another hard chop to the chest of Butch and Butch curls up, showing agony in his face. Sunbird then slams his shoulder into Butch's ribs and takes him out of the corner with a fireman's toss. Sunbird now locks a sleeper on the sitting Butch. Butch struggles, realizing the predictiment he's in and Sunbird jerks him back into position, locking it in tighter. Butch begins to flail his arms around and hits the ropes out of pure luck. The referee forces Sunbird to break the hold. ::
Doc: I think Sunbird may have Butch's number tonight. Don't you think so Johnny?
Johnny: It's not over yet, Don't count Butch out just yet!
:: Sunbird pushes Butch away as he comes in with a punch and Sunbird kicks him to the midsection. Sunbird now steps back onto the second rope and tried to deliver a modified tornado DDT, but Butch counters and drops him with a facebuster. Butch now unloads a fury of stomps on Sunbird who has to roll out of the ring to escape them. Butch again goes to the top rope and leaps off but NOBODY HOME! Sunbird moves out of the way and Butch smashes into the floor. Sunbird pulls Butch up and attempts his finisher the Sunburn, but Butch has to much life in him. Butch slams Sunbirds face into the guardrail and then slams him back into the ring apron ::
Doc: This has turned into an all out brawl. There's no wrestling left here.
Johnny: That's how they usually turn out. Especially with someone as barberic and extreme as Sunbird.
:: Butch balances himself on the guardrail and leaps off driving both feet into Sunbird, performing a dropkick that slams him once again into the ring apron. Sunbird winces in pain as the wood cracks into his spine. Butch now back to his feet and he grabs Sunbird by the tights and rolls him back into the ring. Butch climbs the top turnbuckle and leaps off, performing a perfect moonsault but NOBODY HOME! Sunbird rolls out of the way. Sunbird now rolls Butch up! ONE! TWO! THREE!!!!!! ::
Doc: SUNBIRD WINS!
Johnny: Damn it Butch, There you go embarassing the XBWL again!
Doc: Shut up Johnny...
:: End Of The Rainbow by E-Town Concrete plays and Sunbird steps to the top turnbuckle celebrating. He climbs out of the ring and hits the floor, walking over around the ring slapping hands with the fans who are in a roaring XBWL chant as he walks up the ramp and steps back behind the curtain ::
Doc: Wow Johnny... Our first match here on the XBWL Memorial Weekend. Looks like Butch is making his way out now. You can see he is horribly disappointed in this finish.
Johnny: Of course he is. He just blew his chance to be known again. This man was once considered a future contender and he just got embarrassed.
Doc: Fans, We have something special here for you. Former XBWL World Heavyweight Champion, Matt Austin is in the building and he's on his way out here!!! He was one of the most popular superstars ever-
Johnny: You mean one of the most arrogant...
Doc: No, He had NOTHING to be arrogant about. He was one of the very best!
:: "Sugar" by System of a Down plays over the XBWL Arena and Matt Austin walks out into the light. He is wearing a black sleeveless t-shirt and torn blue jeans. His long, brown hair hangs down around his face in tight curls. He looks to each side of the fans as they hit thier feet, a deafening AUSTIN, AUSTIN, AUSTIN chant fills the arena. He steps down the ramp and takes a drink of his water. He tosses it over to the side and pulls a microphone from the back of his pants. ::
Matt Austin: Cut my Music!
:: The fans roar, still chanting as his music dies down. ::
Matt Austin: You didn't think you could have an XBWL reunion show without Matt Austin did you!!?!
:: Fans roar thier approval at his presense. ::
Matt Austin: Well what can I say? It's been a few years since I stepped into a wrestling ring. Unlike some of the others here, I didn't go out and look for work anywhere else. The XBWL was always my home and this was the last place I hung my boots. I know alot of the boys in the back still have some resentment for me. They don't feel like I deserved alot of what I got in the XBWL and I guess I can understand that, but when you are the best, you just can't help that!
:: The fans cheer at that comment. ::
Matt Austin: So I guess this weekend is my chance to prove that huh? All XBWL generations are going to fight here for the chance at walking away crowned the XBWL World Heavyweight Champion. And who did I draw? Let's see... I know I have it around here somewhere.. It was some old geezer...
:: Matt Austin starts digging in his pockets looking for his slip of paper. ::
Matt Austin: Ah, Here we go... Creeping Death! hahaha... I remember watching this guy a long time ago. He fueded with Mad Jester for a while... Ah hell, He's a former champion, but I don't know if he was really in MY league.
:: "I Disappear" by Metallica plays over the XBWL arena and Matt Austin turns around and backs down the ramp a little bit as Creeping Death walks out. Behind him, walk the entire Empire of Damage.. First King Nothing, Motorbreath. Mr. Rage, Machine, Snakecharmer and finally Mr. Misery. Followed closely behind is thier longtime manager Phantom Lord. They step out and stare at Matt Austin before Phantom Lord takes the mic. ::
Phantom Lord: You got a problem? You think you're gonna walk all over this monster? Well, here's a ego-killer from the Empire of Damage!
:: Creeping Death rushes forward clotheslining Matt Austin down. King Nothing, Motorbreath and Mr. Misery begin to beat on him. ::
Phantom Lord: See Austin, This is what it's about. Teamwork! We were the most elite stable in history. We dominated the entire time we were here and now we will walk out with the XBWL World Heavyweight Title! Here's a little piece of history for you Austin!!
:: King Nothing and Mr. Misery hold Austin up and Creeping Death pulls his head back forcing him to stare at the XBWL-Tron which comes alive. ::
(XBWL-TRON)
DIAMOND: CD executes a sleeperhold. IRON YUPPY submits after 5 seconds. The winner is CD! Who is this monster!
DOC: We have a new WORLD CHAMPION! The man known as CD gets the win!
DIAMOND: I can't believe it! This man in his first match ever in the XBWL has become the World Champion! What kind of Bull Shit is this? Iron Yuppy executed his IRON SPIKE finisher and it had no effect on this man. Who is he?
DOC: Well you are about to find out Johnny because he's taking of his mask and it appears to be......
DIAMOND: Holy SHIT!! That's CREEPING DEATH! CREEPING DEATH has returned to the XBWL!
DOC: Uh oh here comes Deathstroke!
DIAMOND: Oh yeah it's payback time now! Deathstroke hates Creeping Death! These two have had a feud going on forever.
DOC: Wait a minute! Thats KING NOTHING, MOTORBREATH and MR.MISERY that have all jumped out of the audience. Where did they come from?
DIAMOND: They have chairs and the four of them are beating Deathstroke and the Iron Yuppy with the chairs! Where is security?
DOC: They are backstage! I'm getting word that the rest of the Kronos Klan is all laid out in the back courtesy of the Evil Empire's Mr.Rage, Snakecharmer and Machine.
DIAMOND: Finally here comes some security. GET THESE CLOWNS UNDER CONTROL!
DOC: I understand that the RUMOR GUY is on his way down to ringside to get an interview.
RUMOR GUY: I can't believe my eyes. The EMPIRE OF DAMAGE has returned. I never thought I'd see it.....
MOTORBREATH: And you aren't going to see much more of it if you don't shut up and give me that microphone! Right now, I would like to introduce to all of you, the 2 men who made all of this possible. These are the 2 men that make the entire XBWL possible....they make it all happen!!!!! Ladies and punks, stand up and recognize the 2 most brilliant men in the history of mankind.....JOHNNY ROCK and PHANTOM LORD!!!!!!!
(Johnny Rock and Phantom Lord make their way down to ringside. Johnny has his hands in the air, jumping around and Phantom Lord is walking slowly using his staff)
JOHNNY ROCK: It couldn't be the same without you!!!!!! It just could not be the same without the 5 men from Damage!!!! Thank you so much....thank you for making my day, my month, and my year!!!!! And thank you for making every single loser in the XBWL shake in their little booties tonight!!!
(Johnny Rock hands the mic to the ever-patient Rumor Guy)
RUMOR GUY: Phantom Lord, where have you been???
PHANTOM LORD: Like aways, the Damage of the EMPIRE OF DAMAGE was out doing what we do best. We were conquering, destroying, causing pain, and frankly ruining every wrestling-wanna be league in the world! But, the point is simple, we are back because the XBWL simply has the best their is to offer in professional wrestling. It is the best and always will be. Just ask the WWFW who are still crying from that PPV we saw last month!!!! And like we always did, are doing right now, and always will do.....we are here to dominate the XBWL and to every single one of you.....I have one message......YOU WILL BE DAMAGED!!!!!!! Ha ha ha ha ha.......
JOHNNY ROCK: I promised myself I wouldn't cry......and I won't......but you will....I PROMISE!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(XBWL TRON goes off)
:: Matt Austin is violently slammed face first into the ramp after being forced to watch the Empire of Damage's hour of triumph from Christmas Chaos, 1997. Matt Austin lays motionless and Phantom Lord laughs. ::
Phantom Lord: Unfortunantly Johnny Rock overdosed on Heroin a few years ago and couldn't be here tonight, but in his memory we will destroy Matt Austin and anyone else who gets in the way of the Empire of Damage's return to the top of the Wrestling World!
:: Suddenly there is a commotion and Phantom Lord collapses! Hawk Henshaw and The Beast are standing with steel chairs. They rush forward and begin to take apart the Empire of Damage! Hawk Henshaw levels Mr. Misery and King Nothing tastes steel from The Beast. Motorbreath and Creeping Death square off with the chair wielding duo. Hawk Henshaw swings the chair and Creeping Death steps up and takes it in his chest and laughs as he snatches the chair out of Hawk's hands. He swings it as hard as he can, sending Hawk Henshaw flying back, bleeding from his face. The Beast slams his chair forward hitting Creeping Death in the knee but he gets attacked by Motorbreath. The Beast leaps and quickly performs a perfect DOWNWARD SPIRAL on Motorbreath and comes back to his feet standing face to face with Creeping Death. ::
The Beast: You wanna fight someone? Let's go bastard!!
Creeping Death: You just fucked yourself Beast..
The Beast: Fuck you!!
:: The Beast charges forward and attacks with a couple punches that seem to have no effect. Creeping Death slams his hand around Beast's throat and slams him down on the ramp with a chokeslam! Creeping Death stands up and raises his hands as the fans boo at the carnage the Empire of Damage has caused. ::
Creeping Death: You have ALL just been DAMAGED!
:: Creeping Death picks up Phantom Lord and King Nothing and carries them off as Mr. Misery and Motorbreath help themselves up and follow along. The camera surveys the damage of Matt Austin, The Beast and Hawk Henshaw laying bleeding on the ramp in front of the XBWL-TRON still showing the Empire of Damage logo... It cuts back to Johnny Diamond and Wrestling Doctor. ::
Doc: WOW! What carnage! That would have been one hell of a fued in the old days. Elements of Supremacy against the Empire of Damage! Wow, I would have paid money to see that one!!!
Johnny: You may not have to, It looks to me like you just got to see it for free. I believe the outcome would have been the same, either way.
Doc: They're helping Austin, Beast and Henshaw to the back and it looks like it's time for us to get another match underway, although I don't know if we're going to see much more action than what we just saw!
Johnny: It's going to be one of the founders of the WWFW taking on one of the top stars of the XBWL's when it closed down. "Superslam" Ted Wilder taking on Lincoln Stone!
Doc: Wow, What a match. We're going to see Superslam wrestle again after all these years!
:: "Hero" By Chad Kroeger plays and "Superslam" Ted Wilder steps out into the spotlight. The video playing over the XBWL-Tron shows many of his matches and achievements including the formation of the WWFW in the old USWL. "Superslam" walks down and rolls into the ring. He walks to the corners and takes the crowd reaction in listening to the mixture of boo's and cheer's.
Doc: Superslam's out here tonight! He's ready to go against Lincoln Stone!!
:: "Bent" by Matchbox 20 plays over the speakers and blue lights flash and strobe lights turn in circles as Lincoln Stone steps out from behind the curtain. The fans hit thier feet, paying respect to the former Tag Team champion and partner of Sean Dudley. He walks down to the ring and climbs in, stares at Superslam for a moment and then throws his hands up to the fans as the music dies down and the referee checks him ::
Doc: Here we go! Time for this match to get underway. Who do you think will win in this match Johnny?
Johnny: Who knows. I remember Superslam, He was one of the greats, but he also tried to tear the XBWL apart so I don't know who I want to throw my support behind. Lincoln Stone was one hell of an athlete and I think he may have the youth and speed advantage here tonight.
:: The match begins with a lock up in the middle of the ring. Superslam goes behind and applies a hammerlock and receives an elbow in the face from Stone for his efforts. Stone catches Superslam's wrist under his armpit and headbutts him in the face. Stone turns Superslam's arm over and jerks at the shoulderblade. Stone then drops an elbow into the back of Superslam's shoulder area. Superslam falls to a knee and Stone turns over his arm again and falls to the mat applying a very painful wristlock. ::
Doc: Both of these men were excellent techincal wrestlers.
Johnny: And the fans want to see some hardcore ass kicking so they better pick up the pace!
:: Stone reaches around and pulls on Superslams leg, trying for a boston crab, but Superslam uses his leg muscles to flip Stone instead. Stone and Superslam stand back up and lock up again in the center of the ring. Superslam sends Stone to the ropes and catches him with a tilt a whirl backbreaker and a cover! ONE!! TW- NO! Stone immediatly kicks out. Stone stands up and stomps on Superslam's hand causing Superslam to go a little off balance in which Stone uses to his advantage and leverage for a snap suplex. Superslam hits the mat and Stone stands up, then drops an elbow across the sternum of Superslam. He pulls him up a little and applies a reverse chinlock. ::
Doc: Very technical match so far here tonight Johnny.
Johnny: It won't stay that way, trust me.
:: Superslam begins moving and finally gets his shoulder under Stone. Superslam stands up and dumps Stone with a standing slam. Superslam then kicks Stone in the shoulder and lands several before Stone rolls off and stands back up. Stone and Superslam lock up and Stone slings Superslam into a turnbuckle. Stone rushes in with a high knee and Superslam falls to the matt face up. Stone leaps to the top turnbuckle and comes off with a flying elbow but NOBODY HOME! Superslam rolls out of the way and comes back to his feet. He walks over to where Stone is laying and pulls him up. Superslam grabs the top rope and begins driving Stone's head into the top turnbuckle. ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TEN! ELEVEN! TWELVE! THIRTEEN! FOURTEEN! FIFTEEN! SIXTEEN! SEVENTEEN! EIGHTEEN! NINETEEN! TWENTY!! Superslam then pushes the unconsious body of Lincoln Stone backwards and he collapses on the mat. Superslam climbs to the middle turnbuckle and drops a guillotine legdrop which hits right on target across Stone's chin! ::
Doc: OH MY GOD! DID YOU SEE THAT!
Johnny: Superslam just beat the CRAP out of Lincoln Stone's face!! His nose is busted open and he's bleeding from several spots on his mouth where it was busted. He may have lost some teeth! WOW! Way to go Superslam!
Doc: I think Superslam is realizing just how much he used to love this business. I haven't seen him this fired up in a LONG time!
:: Superslam pulls Stone up and he gives the signal to the crowd for his finisher, The Superslam. He lifts Stone up, but Stone quickly rolls down his body and drives him down with a huge DDT. Stone rolls back and stands up, wiping the blood from his nose and charges forward to clothesline Superslam, but Superslam catches him in with a drop toe hold. Stone lands, hanging on the middle rope and Superslam hits the far rope and comes running and leaps across his back, driving his entire body weight into Stone's back. Stone winces in pain and falls forward to the outside, crashing into the cement. Superslam exits the ring and mounts Stone on the outside. Superslam begins slamming his fists into Stone's face as the crowd chants along ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIV-! NO! Stone reaches out and gets his hands on a chair sitting at ringside and brings it to him, slamming it into the side of Superslam's head. Superslam falls backwards and Stone stands to his feet and drives the chair into Superslam's throat. He then lifts the chair and slams hit down as hard as he can into Superslam's skull. Stone drops the chair down and pulls Superslam up and drives him down hard into it with a fisherman's DDT. ::
Doc: Looks like the match has gotten a little hardcore now and Superslam is on the recieving end of most of it here.
Johnny: Stone is showing us why he was one half of the tag team champions and why he was one of the top superstars in the XBWL when it closed down. He's not a pushover!
:: Lincoln Stone stands back up and pulls Superslam, who is bleeding from his skull, up and rolls him into the ring. Lincoln Stone enters the ring and goes for the over! ONE!!!!! TWO!! NO! Kickout by by bloody Superslam! Superslam quickly sits back up as an astonished Stone looks on. Stone rushes him and knocks him down again with a clothesline and drops a knee into his ribs. Superslam flinches as the knee hits him and Stone stands up, realizing this and drops another. Superslam grabs his side and seems to be in severe agony! ::
Doc: Uh Oh, It looksl ike Superslam has hurt those ribs somewhere tonight and Stone just realized he's found the weak spot on this veteran.
Johnny: This is a tough break for Superslam but it's just what Stone needed.
:: Lincoln Stone picks Superslam up and drops him hard across his knee, all of the impact striking Superslams ribs. Superslam immediatly rolls away howling as he clenches the ribs! He rolls to the outside and drops to a knee holding his ribs again. Stone backs up and rushes forward, nailing a baseball slide into Superslam's face and sending him back into the guardrail. Stone slides out of the ring and kicks Superslam in his ribs. Stone then pulls Superslam up and applies an abdominal stretch and starts to steadily pound on the ribs. Superslam immediatly starts tapping but there's nothing the referee can do to stop it. ::
Doc: Superslam is finished, He's tapping furiously but they are outside the ring. The referee can do nothing!!! This is brutal! Someone call for the bell!
Johnny: All Stone has to do is get Superslam in the ring now and he could win this, but he's just trying to hurt him now. Another veteran superstar that Stone can say he completely destroyed. That's what is on his mind now. Putting Superslam on the shelf permanently.
:: Suddenly the arena comes alive as Legacy charges from the back and rushes to the ringside area carrying a chair. Stone lets go and goes to face Legacy who stands ready for him to make a move. Superslam falls to the ground but he immediatly begins crawling to the announce position. ::
Doc: What is he doing. Give him a microhone Johnny!
Johnny: Here you are Superslam!
"Superslam" Ted Wilder: LEGACY!! Get OUT of here! Tonight I don't want your help friend. Tonight I have to do this on my own! I want to prove that I still have what it takes to be in the game!
:: Legacy looks over to Superslam and see's the determination on his face. Legacy turns and walks to the back as Stone slides back in the ring. Superslam Ted Wilder climbs back in again, holding his ribs and half falling into the ring. Lincoln Stone grabs him and lifts up and drops him hard with a brainbuster DDT. Stone walks over to the turnbuckle and climbs. He climbs to the top and flies off with a moonsault. He covers "Superslam" Ted Wilder. ONE!!!!! TWO!!!!!!! NO!!!!!::
Doc: He didn't mean he was FINISHED!!!
Johnny: SUPERSLAM STILL HAS FIGHT!
:: Legacy stops at the top of the ramp and turns. He watches the action in the ring, shaking his head as "Superslam" pulls himself to his feet. Lincoln Stone immediatly goes to work. Kicking the back of Superslam's knee. Superslam goes down, but holds onto the rope. He pulls himself back up, only to face an elbow into the ribs. Stone follows as Superslam pulls himself down the ropes into the corner. Superslam turns only to meet a front elbow from Stone into his face. Superslam grabs his face as he slumps back into the corner. Stone pulls Superslam by the back of his head and slings him across the ring to the other corner. Stone charges in, but Superslam turns and sticks out an elbow at the last second!! Lincoln Stone is stunned and reeling!! ::
Doc: Wow! Superslam is actually back in this! Legacy is getting the fans to thier feet chanting SUPERSLAM! SUPERSLAM!! Wilder is feeling it!! The fans respect what he's doing.
Johnny: We may witness a miracle tonight!!
:: Superslam grabs Lincoln Stone and pushes him into the corner! Stone quickly responds with a thumb to the eye and drives his shoulder into the knee of Wilder. Wilder drops to the ground again and Stone flips over his back, catching his neck with a ruthless reverse snapmare. Lincoln Stone lifts up Ted Wilder... Driving him to the mat again with a german suplex and then locks his hands around Wilders waist. Stone lifts Wilder up again and this time drives him face first into the mat!! Wilder is gasping for air as Stone pulls him up by his hair and drives him down with a DDT. Wilder is motionless and bleeding as Lincoln Stone rolls him into a small package!! ONE!! TWO!!! THREE!!!!!
Doc: Well that's it... Ted Wilder did give it his best tonight. To many years of lingering injuries and false hopes I suppose.
Johnny Diamond: He put too much faith in his ability to actually win a match! HAHA!
Doc: Great determination by "Superslam" Ted Wilder but it looks like Stone had his number here tonight.
Johnny: Nobody feels sorry for him. Time for the old man to hang up the boots!
:: Legacy walks down and enters the ring.. Lincoln Stone immediatly exits. Awesome Australian and Lizzard walk out as well and roll into the ring. They help "Superslam" Ted Wilder up and hold his hands in the air. He can barely stand from the beating he just took from Stone. The four friends stand in the ring as the fans stand and cheer, showing the founders of Armageddon much appreciation for all thier years in the business. Legacy helps Superslam out of the ring and the four walk to the back. ::
Doc: Great showing here by "Superslam" Ted Wilder. He used to be one of the greatest in our sport and now he's going to settle down, but it just goes to show you what the XBWL means to these people. No matter what condition, or what stage of thier life they are in... Everyone that was once a World Champion here has come back to wrestle on the return memorial.
Johnny: It's not all over though. It's just getting started. We've seen some amazing action already though! I cannot believe it!
Doc: Armageddon is leaving now... They are helping the fallen hero out of the ring. "Superslam" Ted Wilder isn't in very good shape here tonight...
:: "Allstar" by Smashmouth plays through the arena and a well built man steps out wearing a red and blue traditional wrestling uniform. He has short blond hair and is accompanied by a beautiful young woman with the same blond colored hair, except hers is halfway down her back. They step out into the arena and the fans recognize them as the team known as Simply Marvelous, comprised of Mr. Marvelous and his sister The Element. Mr. Marvelous walks down in front, slapping hands with all the fans before he makes his way over the top rope with a flip. He holds the ropes open for his sister who steps through. They celebrate in the ring as the music dies out. ::
Doc: Mr. Marvelous here for singles action. They were most commonly known as Simply Marvelous in the tag team division before the XBWL folded.
Johnny: I think I liked Mr. Marvelous better when he was in a mask and called himself Jiestor. Element on the other hand, She can leave the mask off and drop the clothes to match!
Doc: JOHNNY!
Johnny: Hehe
:: "Evenflow" by Pearl Jam plays and the crowd immediatly hit thier feet. Mr. Marvelous and Element seem kind of annoyed that the response for thier opponent is blowing thiers away. Suddenly white and blue lights flash and Kruger Roberts steps into the entrance. He raises the XBWL International Title above his head and comes down to the ring. He smiles to the fans at ringside and climbs into the ring. As soon as he does, Mr. Marvelous gets a mic. ::
Mr. Marvelous: KRUGER ROBERTS! Good to see you old friend, but I thought that the XBWL International Title was declared vacant when the league folded, yet I see you wearing it!
:: Kruger Roberts gets a mic. ::
Kruger Roberts: Actually Mr. Marvelous, That is a good point. And there's nobody better to answer that question for us than the man who gave it to me and told me to take it to the ring.
:: "Hail To The Chief" by the U.S. Air Force Band plays out into the arena and Johnny Macaroni steps out into the spotlight. The fans immediatly hit thier feet, cheering and screaming as he waves to them and then motions them to be quiet as the music dies down. ::
Johnny Macaroni: The way I see it. The only reason we stripped Kruger of that title was because we were closing. Since we will become an active federation, at least for a short time, I feel that there SHOULD be a champion. So what I have decided is that the match between you two has just become a THREE WAY DANCE. And to make it better. It's a LADDER MATCH.
Mr. Marvelous: But.. Who is going to be the third man?
Johnny Macaroni: Mr. Marvelous... I'm glad you asked that!
:: "Lonely Road of Faith" by Kid Rock plays and the fans come to thier feet to see who is coming out and it's none other than XBWL legends, ROBERT THE DEMOLISHER!!! He walks out and the fans explode with a chorus of cheers for one of the best in XBWL history. He walks out, waving to the crowd and carrying a ladder. He carrys the ladder down and the referee attaches the XBWL International Title to a cord and hoists it in the hair. Robert The Demolisher drops the ladder at ringside and climbs inside. ::
Doc: OH MY GOD!! I didn't even know he would be here tonight! It's Robert The Demolisher!!
Johnny: Yeah, I got that the first time. Thanks Doc!!
:: Mr. Marvelous, Kruger Roberts and Robert The Demolisher circle each other, looking for an opportunity to rush in. Kruger Roberts and Mr. Marvelous seem to come to some kind of agreement and they rush in first with a double clothesline, taking down Demolisher. Demolisher is back to his feet and he delivers a hard knife edge chop to Roberts and then a dropkick to Marvelous. Marvelous rolls out of the ring and goes under it. Roberts and Demolisher tie up in the center of the ring and Mr. Marvelous comes back in with a kendo stick. Mr. Marvelous drives the kendo stick into the ribs of Kruger Roberts and then spins around slamming it into the head of Robert The Demolisher. ::
Doc: Looks like Mr. Marvelous is getting the early advantage here.
Johnny: Either that or he's the only nimrod who realizes he can use weapons in this LADDER match.
:: Demolisher falls to the ground and Marvelous slams the kendo stick into Roberts who is on the ground. He raises it again to swing again, but Demolisher hits him from behind with a chop block, sending him crashing to the mat. Demolisher gets the kendo stick now and swings it as hard as he can into the stomach of Mr. Marvelous. Mr Marvelous rolls out of the ring and drops to his knee's holding his stomach. Demolisher then turns his attention to Kruger Roberts who is laying out on the mat. He walks over and raises it only to be met with a kick to the groin by Kruger Roberts who was not completely out. Roberts comes to his feet and kicks Demolisher in the stomach and delivers a falling suplex into the kendo stick. Kruger Roberts then notices Mr. Marvelous slowly getting to his feet outside and flies over the top rope, delivering a corkscrew plancha into his back which sends him face first into the guard rail and he falls to the ground. The fans at ringside begin screaming HOLY SHIT, HOLY SHIT! :
Doc: Wow, Kruger really wants to walk out of here tonight with his International Title!!
Johnny: I'm going to have to put my money on Robert The Demolisher. He is a old school XBWL legend and he knows what it takes to rise to the occassion here.
:: Robert the Demolisher begins to stand up and see's his opponents outside. Demolisher rolls outside of the ring and begins setting up a table. He walks over and stomps Kruger Roberts in the head and pulls Mr. Marvelous to his feet. He rolls him back into the ring and begins dragging him over to the side where the table is. Demolisher pulls Marvelous through the ropes and sets him between his legs. Demolisher pulls him up and sits back.. PILEDRIVER THROUGH THE TABLE!! Demolisher rolls out of the rubble and tosses the ladder inside the ring. He walks over and pulls Kruger up, slams him into the steps for good measure and then rolls into the ring and sets the ladder up. Demolisher starts up the ladder!!! ::
Doc: Demolisher is being extremely violent here tonight. The fans are loving it, well.. Unless they are fans of Mr. Marvelous and Kruger.
Johnny: And I'm not so I'm loving it!
:: Kruger Roberts slowly begins to pull himself up as Demolisher climbs. Kruger climbs the steps and then the turnbuckle. Demolisher reaches out for the belt and Roberts comes off the top robe, dropkicking the ladder and sending Demolisher crashing down to the mat without the title belt that was within seconds of being his. Roberts lays for a moment and then rolls over to the ropes and uses them for leverage to get up. He walks over to where Demolisher is laying and drops an elbow into his sternum. Demolisher jerks from the impact and Roberts is up again, pulling Demolisher up. He drives him down into the Ladder with a running bulldog and then pulls the ladder over the center of the ring. Roberts opens it up and begins to climb.
Doc: Kruger Roberts now is starting up the ladder but I see some movement from Mr. Marvelous.
Johnny: And Demolisher isn't out of it yet, Come on Rob!
:: Mr. Marvelous pulls himself into the ring and rushes the ladder, pushing it over and sending Kruger Roberts to the outside, all the way to the floor. Mr. Marvelous now setting the ladder up and climbing himself. Element walks over to the announcer position and sits down, putting on a headset as he climbs. Mr. Marvelous reaches the middle of the ladder, but Robert the Demolisher starts up the other side. They exchange punches as they both climb the ladder. Robert The Demolisher kicks Mr. Marvelous in the knee and thumbs his eye, causing him to let go and topple to the ground. Demolisher turns to where Mr. Marvelous is laying and leaps off the ladder with a flying guillotine leg drop that connects with Mr. Marvelous. Demolisher stands up and pulls Mr. Marvelous up and puts him in the middle of the ladder. Demolisher closes the ladder and topples it, trapping Mr. Marvelous between the two halves. Demolisher now, climbs the top rope... Wait! Kruger Roberts pushes him off, he falls to the outside hitting the steps and falling lifeless on the cement outside. Kruger Roberts flies off the top rope, Corkscrew Plancha, slamming Mr. Marvelous in between the two halves of the ladder! ::
Doc: Welcome to the Announcer Position Ms. Element.
Johnny: YAY! Ladies! Just like the old days eh Doc?!
Doc: Hmm.. What brings you here Ms. Element?
Element: I just can't stand being out there at ringside. I keep wanting to get involved, but I promised Belgian I wouldn't.
Doc: By Belgian, you mean your current fiance, Belgian Sensation?
Element: That's right, We've been together for a year now. We dated for about six months before he proposed.
Johnny: Interested in a fling before you settle down with a Waffle?
Element: Um, Not in this lifetime Johnny..
Johnny: Awww...
:: Back in the ring, Mr. Marvelous is bleeding from being crushed by the ladder and Kruger Roberts. Kruger Roberts sets up the ladder and starts to climb it. About halfway up, he notices Demolisher standing up on the outside. NO! OH GOD! Roberts leaps off the ladder to the outside and sends Demolisher into the guard rail with a huge missle dropkick! Kruger Roberts then slings Demolisher into the ring and climbs back in. Kruger sets Demolisher between the two halves of the ladder and lays him out in the ring as well. Roberts climbs to the top robe and leaps off, Corkscrew Plancha towards Robert the Demolisher! Demolisher isn't out though! Demolisher pushes the ladder open and catches Roberts with it. Roberts crashes into the ladder and hits his head, falling to the mat with some blood running from his skull. ::
Doc: OH GOD! Demolisher had his number on that one... Roberts looks like a train wreck!
Johnny: Told you he would come back!
:: Demolisher lays the ladder down and walks over to Mr. Marvelous. He pulls him up and Mr. Marvelous swings, only to be nailed with a fisherman's DDT into the ladder. Demolisher stands back up and pulls Marvelous and Kruger up. He slams thier heads together and then locks both of them. One under each arm and falls back, driving both of them into the ladder with a double DDT! Demolisher now rolls both competitors out of the ring and sets the ladder back up. ::
Doc: I think he just ended this match Johnny.
Johnny: I told you he was going to!
Element: Wow, I can't watch this. Jess is hurt isn't he? Oh God.. I should have helped him. He wanted to win this International Title more than anything else. He never got a chance at it in the XBWL.
Johnny: Well his hopes and dreams are getting crushed, just like my heart.
Element: Cool it Johnny. OH god...
:: Element watches in horror as Robert the Demolisher climbs the ladder and locks his hands around the XBWL International Title. He pulls it down and starts climbing down with the belt on his shoulder. He falls from about midway down the ladder but keeps the XBWL International Title outstretched. The fans come to thier feet celebrating with him. He stands back up and raises the title belt and then kisses it. He hugs it and straps it around his waist, climbing each turnbuckle and raising his fist to the approval of the fans. ::
Doc: He's an old schooler in the XBWL and he just walked out of here tonight with the International Title.
Johnny: Now is this a SANCTIONED title reign or what exactly is going to happen? Is he going to be stripped of it after the show?
Doc: I don't know exactly, I'll try to get some information on that. Maybe he gets to defend it on our world tour.
Johnny: Good point. It could turn into a very interesting reign. He's got two men that just lost there in the ring and I know that both of them want a shot at getting it again.
:: Element goes down and helps Mr. Marvelous to his feet and he turns and pushes her down. Suddenly the camera is focused on the action in the ring. Mr. Marvelous grabs a microphone and points at her. ::
Mr. Marvelous: Where the hell were you!?! I was fighting the most important match of my career! You were NOWHERE! I spent the end of my XBWL career helping you, carrying you in a tag team that was doomed from the start because my partner was a fucking woman! You may be my sister but right now, you are nothing more than a BITCH! If you want to be in my corner, then you fucking help me when I need you!
Element: Jess, I'm sorry.. I just thought you would want to do it on your own.. I didn't think...
Mr. Marvelous: You damn right you didn't think!
:: Mr. Marvelous grabs her by the hair and pulls her up, quickly dropping her with the Marvelous Ride! This brings a huge boo from the crowd and from the back Belgian Sensation hits the ring at a full gallop. He leaps into the ring as the crowd roars approval. Belgian Sensation pushes Mr. Marvelous out of the way and kneels down beside The Element. ::
Belgian Sensation: Jess.. What have you done?!? This is your SISTER!
Mr. Marvelous: Maybe I need to quit giving a shit about my family and start concentrating on my wrestling career. I've watched you drag us all around, competing in two bit shitholes for a few dollars every night. Tonight was MY night. It was dropped in my lap and I was going to take it, but you both fucked me over. So you know what, Fuck you both.
:: Mr. Marvelous hits Belgian Sensation with a boot and drives him into the mat with the Marvelous Ride and leaves the ring. Medical officials rush down and begin loading the Element on a stretchet. Belgian Sensation comes to and begins to tend to her. They take her to the back and begin loading her on an ambulance. Belgian Sensation hops inside and we see Johnny Macaroni walk up. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Belgian Sensation! What do you think you are doing? I understand that your fiance is out here hurt, but you are supposed to be wrestling up next against Jack Diamond in the first round of the XBWL World Title tournament. Are you going to walk out on this?
Belgian Sensation: That belt doesn't mean anything to me if she isn't there by my side to see me win it.
:: Belgian Sensation slams the doors and the ambulance sirens come on and the ambulance speeds away. ::
Doc: I cannot believe what we just saw. Mr. Marvelous just tried to kill his own sister. What is coming over this man? He used to be one of the most popular young superstars in the XBWL. He showed so much promise.
Johnny: I think he is still showing promise Doc, He's just not caring who he runs over to get it.
Doc: I don't know what we're going to do about the rest of the show...
:: "Block Rockin Beats" by the Chemical Brothers blares into the arena followed by THE BEAST IS UNLEASHED and the entrance goes crazy with red and white lights, followed by fireworks. The Beast steps out into the arena and the fans go crazy!!! He soaks up the attention before finally continuing down the ramp. He walks over to the ringside area and slaps hands with a fan wearing a t-shirt that says THE BEAST IS A HARDCORE GOD. The Beast finally climbs the ring steps and goes into the ring. He motions for his music to get cut and then pulls a microphone up to his mouth. ::
Beast: It seems to me that Mr. Marvelous and Belgian Sensation just caused a little problem here. And now we are absent one of the competitors for the World Heavyweight Title Tournament. Well Johnny Macaroni, I have a solution if you will be so kind as to join me.
:: "Hail To The Chief" by the U.S. Air Force Band plays again in the arena as Johnny Macaroni walks out to the ramp. He motions for his music to be cut. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I'm listening...
Beast: As you can probably guess, the XBWL World Title is a very important belt to me and I am honored to fight for the belt here tonight. But let's be real for a second Macaroni. I was never interested in the World Title. I only filled the spot there because there was no one else to do so. Now Jack Diamond has no opponent tonight, and rather than have him get a by to the next round, I offer this solution. Put Jack Diamond against my opponent tonight, and tomorrow night... I want CARNAGE for the HARDCORE TITLE!
:: The fans explode as the Beast makes mention of the belt he was so well known for. Six reigns, holding the record in that division. He was a hardcore monster and the fans loved it. Nothing satisfied them more than to hear "THE BEAST IS UNLEASHED" and to know that he was coming out here to do whatever it took to destroy and take apart his opponent. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Ok, I can handle that. Carnage was one of the most hardcore men in the business and he does hold the record for longest title reign now... Beating you by one day. Sounds good to me. But it won't be any match Beast. It will be a Tables Match, Best of Three Falls!
Beast: And that Macaroni, Is why you make the best President ever!
:: "Block Rockin Beats" by the Chemical Brothers plays again and Beast makes his way out of the arena. Johnny Macaroni signals to the crowd and walks to the back as well. ::
Doc: Can you believe that? The Beast has given up his shot in the World Title division and he is going to fight Carnage to settle once and for all who is the hardcore champion!
Johnny: Yeah, I can believe it. The Beast always was an idiot. Then again, Considering who he was facing tonight. Maybe he made the right decision.
Doc: Wow... His opponent tonight was ... LEGACY!
Johnny: So the other Diamond, with no relation to myself will be going one on one with Legacy tonight. That's a hell of a match... It's almost as awesome as the main event, but of course it's not because the main event puts a former Kronos Klan great, Chris Scarlet against the Awesome Australian!
Doc: That's going to be one hell of a match! That match deserves to be the main event. Another chapter in the war of Klan v/s Armageddon will be written tonight!
Johnny: But our first match is a rematch of sorts. Monster Mac taking on Preying Mantis.
Doc: Monster Mac was the first ever XBWL World Heavyweight Champion and he dethroned Preying mantis!
:: "Return of the Mac" blares through the XBWL Speakers and Monster Mac steps out to a HUGE ovation from the crowd. They hit thier feet showing thier years of respect for this two time XBWL Champion. He walks out into the spotlight and looks around. He is wearing black sunglasses covering alot of his face, but his well built muscular frame stands poised on top of the ramp. The crowd really gets into him immediatly and he walks down, slides into the ring and works them up a little before finally settling into his corner. ::
Doc: MONSTER MAC is in the building! Can you believe it? This former Trio of Terror great is here, ready for his first match in the World Title Tournament against Preying Mantis!
:: "Wake Up" by Rage Against The Machine plays and Preying Mantis steps into the arena. Never being a favorite of the crowd, they immediatly bombard him with boo's and start throwing trash at him, totally disrespecting the former champion!. He walks down to the ring and slides under the bottom rope and stands up to meet Monster Mac. ::
Doc: Well here we go. Bell is sounding Monster Mac is taking on Preying Mantis!
Johnny: I will have to have my support behind former Klan and Trio of Terror... The Hardcore Legend.. Monster Mac!
Doc: I figured you would Johnny...
:: Monster Mac and Preying Mantis begin to circle each other. Suddenly Monster Mac points to the entrance and the referee looks to see what he is pointing at. Monster Mac takes the opportunity to slam his foot into Preying Mantis's groin and pick him up, driving him into the mat hard with a Death Vally Driver. The referee looks back, asking Monster Mac what he was referring to, but the damage has already been done. Monster Mac pulls Mantis to his feet and levels him with a short clothesline and drops a knee into his ribs. Monster Mac stands up and splits open Mantis's legs, before falling face first into his groin. The referee warns Monster Mac for his actions, but the fans are behind him 100% as an ear deafening MONSTER MAC chant strikes out through the arena. ::
Doc: Monster Mac isn't even pretending to follow the rules.
Johnny: He never did, but the fans loved what he did and they're loving it here, right now!
:: Monster Mac pulls Mantis to his feet and plants him hard with a DDT and springs to his feet. He reaches down and grabs Mantis again, but Mantis responds with a strike to his groin. Mantis stands up and boots Mac in the face before driving a short elbow into the back of his skull. Mantis now pulls Mac back up by his bald head and slams him face first into the turnbuckle. Mantis immediatly follows it with a school boy roll up on the staggering former World Champion Monster Mac. The referee hits the mat.. ONE!!!!!!! TWO!!! NO! Kickout by Monster Mac! Monster Mac grabs Mantis's wrist and flips him, locking him in a wristlock, applying the pressure to Mantis's elbow. Mantis reaches out and grabs the ropes and the referee threatens Monster Mac again. Monster Mac springs to his feet and drop kicks Mantis in the face as he tries to come back up. ::
Doc: Monster Mac isn't here to play, He's here to kick some ass!!
Johnny: Yeah, I believe it. Bringing the World Title home would be the best thing in his career right now.
:: Mac drives an elbow to the sternum of Mantis and he flops on the mat. Mac stands up, looking down at his former adversary. Mac bounces off the ropes and does a sliding drop kick towards the head of Mantis who rolls out of the way. Mantis rolls over and grabs Mac with a sleeper. Mac begins to fight, trying to push off Mantis and pull to his feet, but being already on the mat, Mantis quickly sets it in perfectly. Mac starts rolling, trying to get out of the hold but Mantis holds tight. Mac starts working his elbows into the ribs of Mantis and finally connects with a couple, causing Mantis to loosen the hold. It's all the opening that Mac needs as he stands up and turns Mantis around, then lifting and sending him flying with a fireman's carry into a suplex. Mantis slams into the mat and Monster Mac begins to apply some boots. Mantis takes them in the arm before finally rolling out of the ring. Mantis starts shaking the cobwebs out of his head, but Monster Mac slings himself over the top rope and lands on Mantis with a splash. Mantis and Mac both crash to the floor. ::
Doc: Great move by Monster Mac. He's taking it to the floor.
Johnny: This isn't the place that Preying Mantis wants to be with Monster Mac. The floor is the LAST place I'd want to be in with this hardcore machine.
:: Mac stands up and looks at Preying Mantis. Mac holds his hands up and points at Preying Mantis as the crowd explodes. Monster Mac goes under the ring and pulls out a table. The fans immediatly begin to recognize the rage in Monster Mac's eyes. The hardcore drive that they remember from this innovator of the XBWL's violence. ::
Doc: Monster Mac set the standard for many hardcore legends to come. Many in the locker room call him the "Father of Violence".
Johnny: I think Preying Mantis is about to find out why too eh!?
:: Mac sets the table up and stomps on Preying Mantis. Preying Mantis slams his fist into the ribs of Monster Mac and causes Mac to wince. Preying Mantis then snaps the leg of Mac under his arm and lifts Monster Mac up! Preying Mantis turns and SLAMS Monster Mac into the hard concrete floor!! ::
Monster Mac: AHH!
Doc: Monster Mac just got slammed and slammed HARD!
Johnny: I didn't expect to see this much aggression, but Preying Mantis is the man that defeated Monster Mac for his very first XBWL World Heavyweight Championship.
:: Preying Mantis grabs Monster Mac's leg and twists his angle and falls back, locking his legs around Monster Mac with a single leglock. Monster Mac starts flopping around on the ground as Mantis grits his teeth and tightens his grip. Monster Mac grabs the guard rail and starts trying to turn against the pressure. Finally after a brief struggle, Preying Mantis lets go and stands up. Monster Mac pulls his knee under him and lifts his body up, only to have an elbow driven into the back of his neck. His body crumbles again, face first into the cement. His body is forced to exhale all the air in his lungs as he hits the cement with force. Preying Mantis puts his foot on the back of Monster Mac's neck and grabs the guardrail for leverage. He begins to twist his foot, grinding the chin and nose of Monster Mac into the cement. Monster Mac screams and uses his elbows to push himself to his side and swings his foot, catching the back of Preying Mantis knee and sending him off balance for a second, but Preying Mantis holds onto the guard rail. Monster Mac rolls out from under his boot and stands up. Preying Mantis delivers a chop to the chest of Monster Mac, but Monster Mac just stands there and shakes his head!! ::
Doc: Monster Mac has come alive. He's definantly not happy!
Johnny: Let some grind your face into cement and let's see how well you take it Doc..
Doc: I'll pass, Thanks...
:: Monster Mac lunges at Preying Mantis's throat! He pushes him back over the railing and raises an open hand and brings it crashing to the chest of Preying Mantis. Preying Mantis's arms clench over his chest and Monster Mac pulls him forward and delivers a knee to the midsection. Monster Mac picks him up and drops him hard with a suplex on the concrete!! Monster Mac springs up and points at the table and the fans once again come alive! ::
Monster Mac: IT'S HAMMERTIME!!!
:: The fans come to their feet and begin stomping and cheering as Monster Mac starts walking around giving the signal to the crowd that it's time for his patent finisher, Hammertime. As soon as Monster Mac pulls Preying Mantis up, Preying Mantis unloads with a low blow!! Monster Mac drops to a knee and Preying Mantis picks him up, and drives him down with a DDT into the concrete. Preying Mantis stands back up and pumps his arms and pulls himself up on the apron. He climbs to the top turnbuckle and flies with a moonsault splash! It connects with Monster Mac!! Both men are down on the concrete floor!! ::
Doc: Great move by Preying Mantis!!
Johnny: Very impressive, Preying Mantis came to fight tonight!
:: Preying Mantis slowly rolls over and puts his hand on the apron. He uses the apron to pull himself to his feet. Monster Mac lays motionless. Preying Mantis pulls Monster Mac up to his feet and clamps his legs around his neck, spinning around and locking in a deadly looking submission hold. Preying Mantis begins to tighten his grip and twist the neck of Monster Mac as the fans try to throw their support to the "Father of Violence". Preying Mantis stands up and smiles. He looks down at the mess in front of him and pulls him up again. He drags Monster Mac over to the table and lays him across it. Preying Mantis pulls himself up once again on the ring. He climbs to the top turnbuckle! This time he flies with a body splash! MONSTER MAC MOVES!!! Monster Mac pulls what little energy left in his bruised, beaten body and rolls off the table, crashing the floor. Preying Mantis falls head first into the table, smashing it and landing hard on the floor. Both men lay motionless for what seems like an eternity but suddenly Monster Mac's head lifts. As he pulls his tired arm up and it hits the concrete with a thud, the crowd cheers. As his other hand follows, the crowd cheers more. Monster Mac pulls himself up and to his knees and begins to feed off the crowd!! ::
Doc: They're ready for him to do it!!
Johnny: The excitement is in the air! I can feel it!
:: Monster Mac stands up and raises his hand. Giving the sign for the HAMMERTIME!! The fans come to their feet once again. Monster Mac begins going crazy. He throws a chair, a garbage can, a couple garbage lids and finally a table into the ring. He pulls up Preying Mantis, drives him to the ground with a piledriver and then rolls him into the ring. Inside the ring, Monster Mac sets up the table and then grabs the chair. He tosses the garbage can under the table, and the two lids on top of it. The crowd is on fire as Monster Mac taps the chair on the mat. He just stands and waits as Preying Mantis begins to gain consiousness. As soon as Preying Mantis stands, halfway to his feet... His knees are wobbly. Monster Mac slings the chair, one handed and catches it on the side of Preying Mantis's head. Preying Mantis falls back and into the turnbuckle and Monster Mac drops the chair!! He signals for Hammertime!!! Monster Mac grabs Preying Mantis and the blood pours from the open wound where the chair just hit him. Monster Mac tucks his head..... Monster Mac lifts him up and turns him towards the table!!! HAMMMMMERRTIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ::
Doc: OH SWEET JESUS!!!
Johnny: OH GOD! OH GOD! OH GOD!
:: Monster Mac falls onto Preying Mantis and pins him!! ONE !! TWO !! THREE!!! ::
Doc: WOW!
Johnny: YOUR WINNER!!
Doc: And he's advancing in the World Heavyweight Title Tournament!! Monster Mac!!
Johnny: I can't believe that Monster Mac has put up such a great showing. He avenged the loss so many years ago when Preying Mantis defeated him for the World Heavyweight Championship.
Doc: The very first title change was replayed here tonight and the result was much different. Monster Mac has really shown he has improved and moved to legendary status in the wrestling world.
Johnny: They are helping Preying Mantis to the back and he's not looking real good, but you can tell that he was really happy just to be able to compete here tonight.
:: It fades out to the back where it shows the XBWL World Heavyweight Championship and then the camera fades back and shows Johnny Macaroni sitting in his office. He is looking at the title belt and a piece of paper in front of him. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I just thought I would personally announce the next match. I know a few of you knew before hand who you would be facing, but some of you didn't get the paperwork him on time so I have had to prepare a whole lot of tonights event at the last minute. So this next pairing is going to happen RIGHT NOW. It will feature Grizzle against one of the most hated men in XBWL history... But tonight he's here in THIS arena in a match SANCTIONED by the XBWL... Grizzle's opponent will be "Mean" Mark Mease!!
:: The fans boo at the mention of the man who tried to tear apart the XBWL, both in the ring and in the front office.. They are even more upset when it fades back to Doc and Johnny and we hear "BOOM" by POD blast into the arena and a man who hasn't been seen in a very long time steps out into the light. Standing before the XBWL fans for the first time in many years is "Mean" Mark Mease!!! ::
Doc: I never thought I'd see this man in an XBWL ring again.
Johnny: I didn't either... This is certainly a shock!!
:: "TOO BAD" by Nickleback blares over the speakers and Grizzle steps out into the light. The fans go crazy upon seeing this veteran of the XBWL walk out. Grizzle steps down on the ramp and raises his hands before walking down to the ring. ::
Doc: Wow! I can't believe it! It's good to see Grizzle again after all these years.
Johnny: Doc.. Um.. I think Grizzle might be a bit out of shape.
:: As Grizzle is walking down the ramp, we see what Johnny is referring too... This former World Champion has in no way kept his conditioning or his wrestling physique. Grizzle's stomach pokes under his tights and peeks through the midsection where his pants and shirt meet. Grizzle appears to be attempting to fit into the same size tights he wore when he was the XBWL in his prime, and he's not the same size he used to be. Grizzle pulls himself up to the ring and is already breathing out his mouth as he hops from foot to foot and stretches on the ropes::
Doc: This may not be very good for our old friend Grizzle.
Johnny: Yeah, I think Mease is going to RIP him apart!
Doc: "Mean" Mark Mease is pointing and laughing at poor Grizzle here tonight. "Mean" Mark Mease is mocking this former champion.
Johnny: Mease always was an ass...
:: The referee checks the two combatants and then motions for the bell to be rung. Mease just stands and stares at Grizzle who rushes forward and begins pounding on his chest. Mease looks down at him and then with an open face slap, hits Grizzle in the face. Grizzle spins around and goes face first into the mat and lays there a second stunned. Mease walks over and grabs him by the hair, pulling him up. Grizzle makes a weak punch at Mease who just ignores it and grabs Grizzle by the throat. Mease lifts Grizzle up and bench presses him before stepping out from under him and allowing him to crash straight down to the mat. ::
Doc: OUCH! That's gotta hurt!! This veteran Grizzle sure isn't looking much like a veteran here tonight!!!
Johnny: I don't think that Johnny Macaroni put much thought into this signing. It's great to see these old XBWL Veterans again, but sometimes they just shouldn't step back into the ring!!
:: Grizzle grabs the ropes and starts to pull himself up, but Mean Mark Mease rushes forward and boots him in the ribs which sends him sprawling through the ropes and down to the floor. Mease climbs out of the ring and pull him up, then picks Grizzle up and gives him an airplane spin and crashing his midsection down on the guardrail!! The fans begin to boo at this horrible treatment of the XBWL veteran! ::
Doc: This is beyond words. I can't believe that Johnny Macaroni would book this.
Johnny: He never was a virtous man... Just a good promoter.
Doc: Well this isn't promoted very well.
:: Mean Mark Mease grabs Grizzle and rolls him into the ring. He rolls in after him and as Grizzle stands up, Mean Mark Mease drives a drop kick into his back, sending him into the turnbuckle. Mean Mark Mease pulls Grizzle up and powerbombs him head first into the turnbuckle! The top of Grizzle's head collides with the turnbuckle and Grizzle collapses to the mat. Mean Mark Mease pulls him back to the center of the ring and locks Grizzle in a sleeper. ::
Doc: He's going to make him submit to a Sleeper! How embarassing!
Johnny: Yeah... I gotta agree with you on that one. Nobody loses to a sleeper anymore.
:: Mean Mark Mease holds on, clenching the hold in and laughing as the referee begins to check Grizzle. The referee lifts his hand and it falls limp. The referee looks around and then lifts the arm again. He holds it for a second and then lets it go again. The referee looks around, almost afraid to lift it again. He lifts the hand up... Holding it and looking at it. The referee slowly lets go... The arm stays in the air! No! Only for a brief second and then collapses!! The referee calls for the bell and Mease continues to hold on. Finally Mease breaks the hold and stomps on Grizzle a couple more times before walking over to the ropes and demanding a microphone. ::
Mease: You know... If this is the best that the XBWL has to offer then there's going to be nothing stopping me tonight. I'm going to walk out of this arena with the XBWL Title on my shoulder. And after I leave here tonight with it, I am going to BURN that piece of shit in an incinerator and say FUCK YOU to the XBWL. Tonight is going to be MY night! There's nobody in the XBWL that can stop me!!!
:: Mease throws down the microphone and starts to leave the ring. The fans react with boo's at the disrespect of not only Grizzle, but of the entire XBWL... ::
Doc: I don't think that Mean Mark Mease is going to be very popular backstage.
Johnny: Me either... But he does have a point. If this is the best we have, then he's going to be the World Heavyweight Champion!
Doc: Don't even say that... There's a whole lot of XBWL superstars in the back who DID keep in shape and who would KILL for one more shot at that title.
Johnny: Well tonights the night! Someone better go postal!!
:: "MOTIVATION" By Sum41 hits the XBWL Arena... The lights go crazy flashing... Suddenly the XBWL-tron lights up with a shot of a bloody face screaming. The lights start flashing red and white and then the XBWL image shatters and the letters T - N - T flash on the XBWL-Tron ::
Doc: YOU WANT POSTAL?
Johnny: Holy Shit....
:: Suddenly the black curtains covering the entranceway FLY back and out runs one of the most hardcore legends in the history of the XBWL.. "TNT" Nick Stevenson. He runs down the ramp... Slapping hands with the fans who hit their feet screaming in a roaring, deafening chant T-N-T... T-N-T... T-N-T!!! TNT runs down the aisle and turns, with one motion letting his black leather jacket slides to the ground, revealing the scars on his upper torso from the years living his life on the hardcore edge. He leaps to the apron and flips over into the ring and dances on one foot with his hands in the air. The fans are going nuts.... TNT pulls a microphone outta the back of his pants. ::
TNT: Sounds like somebody missed the XBWL!!!!
:: The fans go nuts again. ::
TNT: OH HELL YES!!! This is what I'm talking about!! My fucking home! My playground!! The XBWL!!! Tonight I get to walk out of here with the XBWL World Heavyweight Championship around my waiste... Who knows.. Maybe Legacy will meet me in the finals for the EVCW belt too!!
:: The fans cheer as TNT gives a shout to his old alumni, and the five time former champion. ::
TNT: Now.. I'm about to blow the roof off this MOTHER FUCKER!!! Brandon Thornton!!! GET YOUR ASS OUT HERE!!!
:: TNT throws the mic to the ground with a thud and the fans are going crazy... TNT starts pushing against the ropes and leaning over bringing the fans to the cause. ::
Doc: Well you wanted Postal...
Johnny: I wanted postal... Not fucking crazy...
Doc: Well you get what you want... You better just hope he doesn't come over here.
Johnny: I know you'll save me doc .. hehe.. ::Weak laugh ::
:: "MY SACRIFICE" by Creed plays and the lights start to dim and flash purple. As the curtains slowly open, we see a figure standing in the entranceway. The spotlight hits him and it's revealed to be "The Future" Brandon Thornton. He has his dirty blonde hair, much longer now, tied back in a ponytail. His eyebrows still bear the eight piercings, representing the eight XBWL singles titles that "The Future" has added to his collection over the years. He steps out into the arena and looks around. He is dressed in his traditional attire, and he has a couple of new tattoos. He is holding a microphone. ::
Brandon Thornton: TNT... I don't really know what you are thinking here tonight, but let me just remind you of something. I have held the XBWL International Title twice.. The North American Title twice.. The Hardcore Title twice.. and finally... THE XBWL WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE TWICE!!
:: The fans boo at his arrogance. ::
Brandon Thornton: Whatever... I was the XBWL World Heavyweight Champion when the XBWL folded. I am the man who rightfully deserves to wear that title. I am the man who should be standing at the top of the bracket to meet whoever can make it through this tournament for a right to face me...
:: Brandon Thornton is cut off by TNT. ::
TNT: BLAH BLAH BLAH! SHUT UP! Either you get beat NOW by TNT or you get beat in the finals. Either way.. YOU GET BEAT BY TNT NOW GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE!!!
:: Brandon Thornton starts to speak but just shakes his head. He tosses the microphone to the side and starts down the aisle. The fans boo him as they chant TNT's name, but Brandon Thornton doesn't seem to care. He walks down the aisle and begins to circle the ring. TNT stands in the middle and just motions for him to join him. TNT continues to taunt him as Thornton steps to the apron. TNT rushes forward and Brandon Thornton drops to the ground and laughs at TNT. ::
Doc: Well we're seeing the strong point of Brandon Thornton.. Those mind games have beaten some of the best in the business.
Johnny: Yeah... I really do believe that Thornton has TNT's number tonight Doc.
Doc: I don't know about that. TNT is one of the most agressive superstars in the history of the XBWL. And one of the most violent.
Johnny: But Brandon Thornton was the final champion. He beat Jack Diamond in the final match sanctioned for the XBWL Title.
:: TNT continues to get agitated as Brandon Thornton continues to play mind games. Pretending he's going to get in the ring and then backing off. Finally the referee pushes TNT to the middle of the ring and demands he stay there. As he does, Brandon Thornton jumps into the ring and rushes forward leaping over the referee's head and planting a fist in the face of TNT! TNT falls back stunned and Brandon Thornton hits the ropes and comes off with a shoulderblock, sending TNT to the mat. The referee motions for the bell to be rung. TNT comes to his feet and hits the ropes, shoulder blocking Brandon Thornton, who braces and does not move. Brandon Thornton just laughs as TNT backs up and hits the ropes again, coming off towards him again. Thornton once again braces as TNT hits him. TNT hits the other rope this time, but instead of hitting with the shoulder, this time he swings for a viscous clothesline that nearly takes Thornton's head off!! The clothesline sends Thornton for a spin to the mat! Thornton starts getting up, shaking his head and he is met with a boot by TNT. TNT then grabs the top rope, pushes his boot into Thornton's throat and then stands up, applying pressure. The referee counts ONE!! TWO!! THREE!! and TNT breaks it before the four count, pulling back and holding his arms up. ::
Doc: TNT's really showing his aggression.
Johnny: Brandon Thornton is just baiting him. He's toying with TNT. TNT's a dumb animal. As long as he believes that he is winning, then everything is ok. It's just part of Thornton's master plan.
:: Brandon Thornton pushes himself up, holding his throat. TNT rushes forward and slings his leg across the back of Thornton's neck, pushing him onto the middle rope. TNT then grabs the top rope and applies tremendous pressure, choking Thornton out again!! The referee is back on the job again... ONE!! TWO!! THREE!! and once again, TNT breaks the hold before the referee can throw the hand for the fourth time. TNT backs up, pretending he doesn't understand why he's being warned. TNT then rushes forward and slings his foot across the neck again and grabs the rope, pushing again on Thornton's neck. The referee doesn't even the first count before TNT breaks the hold and backs up. TNT smacks the back of Thornton's head with his hand and then kicks him in his ribs. Thornton falls to his hands and knees. TNT walks over and goes for another boot but Thornton quickly responds with a low blow on TNT. TNT grabs his groin and stumbles forward. Brandon Thornton grabs him by his hair and drives him backwards into the mat. Brandon Thornton then grabs TNT's legs and spreads them apart, then falling forward with his head, driving a headbutt into the groin of TNT. TNT rolls on the mat, holding his groin. Brandon Thornton stands up, rubbs his neck and then grabs TNT's arm and rolls him forward for a modified small package!! The referee counts! ONE!! TW--- NO! TNT quickly kicks out. Brandon Thornton slaps the mat in anger.
Doc: That low blow really changed the course of this match.
Johnny: Mind games Doc.. Mind Games.. :: Johnny points to his head ::
:: Brandon Thornton raises his boot and goes to stomp on TNT's chest, but TNT catches Thornton's boot and stands up. Thornton hops on one foot, shaking his head no as TNT steps forward and performs a one legged sweep on Thornton. TNT then drives an elbow down into the groin of Thornton. Thornton grabs his groin, feeling the effects of his own devious plans. TNT stands up and hobbles a little, holding his groin and picks up Thornton's leg. He prepares to stomp on Thornton's groin, but Thornton uses his other leg to push TNT back. Thornton then performs a kick up and rushes forward, using a clothesline to knock TNT down. TNT rolls over and starts to stand back up and Thornton steps over his head and grabs his chin, sitting down into a camel clutch. TNT fights as Thornton tries to get his arms up onto his knee's. TNT eventually loses the fight and Thornton sits in, sinking the camel clutch in and causing TNT to scream in pain from the submission hold. TNT begins to kick his feet, trying to off balance Thornton. Thornton sits back further, causing more damage on the back. TNT finally manages to causes Thornton to stumble a bit, and TNT uses that brief moment to unlodge one of his arms and push his body enough to pull the other one free. TNT starts to push up and Thornton releases the camel cluth, but grabs TNT's hair and uses his huge arm to club TNT across the right ear. TNT slumps to the mat holding his back and Thornton stands up.
Doc: That submission move was almost the end of TNT. TNT does not need to get into a mat wrestling game with the crafty Brandon Thornton. Thornton can take the mat wrestling game to anyone.
Johnny: And he's proving it! TNT needs to use weapons and hardcore wrestling to win. Thornton will decimate him with this mat wrestling!
:: Thornton steps forward, grabbing TNT's wrist and turning it over. Thornton sits down, throwing a leg over his arm and locking in another submission hold! TNT begins to fight as his wrest and elbow take tremendous pressure. TNT reaches out frantically for the ropes, but Thornton holds on tight. TNT pushes down on the mat, barely pulling himself an inch and lunges, this time close enough to the ropes. Thornton pushes himself up and releases the hold as the referee counts. TNT uses both hands to grab the bottom rope and pulls himself towards them, and then uses the second rope to pull himself to his knees. Brandon Thornton walks over and grabs TNT by the hair. He pulls TNT up and applies a front facelock. Thornton grabs the tights of TNT and sets in for a suplex, but TNT blocks it by sticking his foot behind the calf of Thornton. Thornton kicks back, forcing the leg to dislodge and tries to suplex TNT again. TNT slams his fist into the ribs of Thornton and blocks again. TNT then snatches Thornton and off balances him, planting him with a northern lights suplex! The referee rushes over and hits the mat. ONE!!!!! TWOOOOO!! NO!! Brandon Thornton kicks free!! Brandon Thornton rolls away and stands up, looking pissed. TNT stands up and Thornton grabs him, tucking his head again and falls for a DDT, but TNT pushes free and Thornton hits the mat without TNT. TNT stomps on the stomach of Thornton who is shocked from the DDT counter. Thornton lunges forward from the stomp and TNT grabs the top rope and starts stomping furiously on Thornton!! Thornton rolls away and stands up as TNT stomps on him. Thornton pulls himself up as the boots fly. Thornton drives an elbow into the sternum of TNT and tucks the head of TNT again... This time Thornton connects with a brainbuster into the mat. Thornton stands up and laughs at TNT. Thornton starts climbing the ropes, facing the crowd. It looks like Thornton is about to try a high flying move, but TNT leaps up!!!
Doc: TNT wasn't out of it!! He just tricked Thornton!! Looks like the mindgames are reversed!
Johnny: TNT is getting his ass kicked... I don't even want to hear you try to pin some petty mind game attempts on his thick skull. He probably doesn't even have enough brain left in there to knock him out.
:: Thornton looks shocked as he is grabbed from behind by TNT. TNT hoists Thornton across the shoulders and steps to the top rope.. ::
Doc: High flying move coming from TNT! Top rope to the ring!!
:: TNT aims Thornton towards the ring... Then looks, and suddenly changes his aim to the floor. ::
Johnny: NO WAY!! HE'LL KILL THORNTON!!
:: TNT leaps off the top rope and drives Brandon Thornton straight down to the concrete floor with a devestating reverse death valley driver!!! Thornton's face skids into the concrete!! TNT falls on his side and back as well and lays back against the ring apron smiling. TNT pulls the hair of Brandon Thornton back and reveals Thorntons face which is bleeding from his scalp. TNT begins to laugh as he tries to pull his demolished body up. ::
Doc: TNT sure hurt the hell out of himself right there, but he put the exclamation point on Brandon Thornton!!
:: TNT stands up and kicks Thornton square in the head, opening the wound up more. Brandon Thornton doesn't move at all. TNT stumbles a little as his body suffers from the pain he is enduring. He pulls Brandon Thornton back up and lifts him up, suplexing him hard on the concrete. Brandon Thornton's body crashes into the cement and TNT stands up again. The fans are on their feet, loving this display of violence. TNT goes under the ring and pulls out a table and starts setting it up!! ::
Doc: Shades of his mentor and best friend Monster Mac right here!
Johnny: That table was what won Mac that match against Preying Mantis.
Doc: Perhaps it'll do the same for TNT tonight as well!!
Johnny: I don't think Thornton is out yet. He's just pretending to be out till he's ready to make his move!
:: TNT reaches back under the ring and pulls out a can of lighter fluid. He sprays the table and then lights the table into flames. The smoke billows into the rafters and begins to choke out some of the people at the ringside. After that, TNT goes under the ring and pulls out a bag of broken glass and spreads it all over the table. He grabs Thornton and locks him up. ::
Doc: Oh hell...
Johnny: OH GOD NO
Doc: He's fixing to hit DYNAMITE on Thornton into that flaming table, which is now covered in broken glass!!!
:: TNT pulls Thornton up as the table flames!! He drags him up on the ring apron and starts to look around as the crowd is madly cheering him on chanting T - N - T!! T - N - T!! TNT just smiles and goes to lift Thornton up. Thornton starts punching TNT as the smoke and the fire hits his nostrils. Thornton starts fighting back as he realizes what is about to happen to him! He slugs TNT two times in the face and TNT reels!! Both men dangling on the apron above the glass covered, flaming table. TNT fights back with a backhand chop into the chest of Thornton. The blood splatters as Thornton's body jerks back, but he catches himself with the top turnbuckle!!! Thornton then fires back with a closed fist into TNT's face. TNT holds on with one hand and swings at Thornton who ducks the chop and then drives his shoulder into the midsection of TNT!!! TNT is stunned for a brief moment and it's all that Thornton needs!! Thornton grabs TNT by his hair... Pulls his head down and steps over!! THORNTON LIFTS TNT UP AND STEPS FORWARD OFF THE RING WITH AGGREVATION ELEMENT!!!! The table is already weakened by the fire, but it still splinters and TNT's head crashes into ash, fire, coals, glass and splintered wood! Thornton immediatly rolls clear and starts brushing the cinders off his tights, but several spots are burned. His knee pads are still smoking. Thornton drops to his knees as blood continues to pour from his head and weaken him. TNT lays for a moment before the XBWL security rush over and spray him down with a fire estinguisher to make sure he doesn't catch on fire or seriously burn himself. His body and face is scorched with first and second degree burns!! ::
Doc: I cannot believe that Brandon Thornton just did that to TNT!!
Johnny: TNT was going to do it to him! What do you expect?
:: Brandon Thornton walks over to where TNT is laying and pull him up by his hair... The blood from Thornton's face drops down into the white on TNT and clumbs on his back. Brandon Thornton rolls TNT into the middle of the ring. Brandon Thornton rolls in after him and covers him... Brandon Thornton counts with the referee!! ONE!!!! TWO!!!! THRE- NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! TNT's shoulder sticks straight up!! Almost like an automated response!! TNT falls back onto the mat again! Brandon Thornton doesn't know what is going on.. Thornton leaps up and stares at the referee!! He's pissed!! Brandon Thornton pushes the referee who quickly threatens him with a diqualification! Brandon Thornton puts his hands on his waist and looks down. He looks back to TNT who is laying motionless still. Brandon Thornton shakes his head and then looks around the arena.. Brandon Thornton pulls TNT up by the hair and TNT unloads with two weak punches... Brandon Thornton easily blocks them and locks TNT up and drives him down with a butterfly piledriver!! Thornton covers TNT again!! ONE!!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!! THRE- NO!!!!!! TNT KICKS OUT AGAIN!!!!
Doc: Where does TNT get this energy!? This emotion!? This strength!! He should be OUT!!
Johnny: I have no idea, but Brandon Thornton is getting highly PISSED!!!
:: Brandon Thornton once again pulls his bloody body up... TNT starts standing as well. Brandon Thornton lays a fist into the face of TNT... TNT stumbles backwards and reacts with a chop back into the chest of Thornton who reels backwards. Thornton again with a fist into the face of TNT!!! TNT chops but Thornton blocks it and slams his knee into TNT's stomach. TNT falls to his knees... He is severely weakened! Brandon Thornton pulls him back up and locks his hands around his waist!! Brandon Thornton lifts him up!! He turns him.... locks his hands.. AGGREVATION ELEMENT!!! Center of the ring!!! Thornton falls backwards, lacking the energy to do anything else!! ::
Doc: TNT is finished... Even I have to admit that Thornton has put him down here tonight.
Johnny: I told you Doc... Brandon Thornton is "The Future" of this business...
:: Brandon Thornton crawls over to TNT.. He drapes a hand across the chest of the former World Champion... The referee counts!! ONE!!!!! TWO!!!!THRE- NO!!!!!!!!!! STILL NO!!! TNT's shoulder flies up and Brandon Thornton just turns, looking at the referee with an unbelievable look on his face and falls back onto the ropes. TNT sits up... He looks at Thornton and starts getting up!! Thornton lays on the ropes.. he is exhausted.. he has tried everything to put away TNT and nothing has worked... TNT uses what little energy he can muster to go after Thornton, he falls on Thornton and begins to punch on him!! Thornton falls backwards, holds the ropes and TNT falls through them to the floor. Thornton lowers himself slowly to the floor. Thornton pulls TNT up and slings him into the guardrail.. NO! Reversal by TNT!!! TNT reverses the slingshot and Thornton collides with the steel barricade!!! TNT grabs a steel chair and as Thornton is standing up.....CRACK!!!!! TNT slams the chair into Brandon Thornton's face!!! Brandon Thornton collapses to the ground... TNT goes under the ring and gets another table. He pulls it out and slides it into the ring... He sets it up near the turnbuckle!! TNT drops back to the ground and goes under the ring. He pulls out the same bag of glass and slides it in the ring. TNT grabs "The Future" Brandon Thornton and rolls him inside!! TNT rolls in and covers the table in glass. Brandon Thornton lays motionless on the mat. TNT pulls Thornton up and drags him to the corner. TNT slings him into the corner and then delivers two more punches!! TNT lifts Thornton to the top rope!! He climbs the ropes and sets Thornton up on his shoulders!! TNT gives the signal for DYNAMITE!! The crowd goes wild!!! The finisher is coming!!! ::
Doc: I have to say... I counted TNT out and he's not out!! He's fixing to WIN!
Johnny: Like I said... Brandon Thornton just isn't in the game anymore.. TNT is the real deal.
Doc: What?
Johnny: It's what I was saying all along!
Doc: Yeah... Sure...
:: TNT lifts Thornton up!! NO!! THORNTON WITH A HEADBUTT!!! Thornton clenches his arms around the wrists of TNT!! Thornton quickly delivers three quick headbutts and the eyebrow rings rip and tear the flesh from TNT's face!! Thornton holds him tight as he is limp in Thornton's hands.. Thornton again slams his head into TNT's face four more times!! The metal tearing and smashing TNT's face!! Brandon Thornton stands looking almost drunk as the blood pours from his own face... several of his piercings are now missing and one is imbedded in TNT's face..

Doc: WOW!!! Your Winner!!! "The FUTURE" BRANDON THORNTON!!!!
Johnny: I told you!! He's the future of the business!! That's why I was behind him the whole time!!
Doc: Nobody can deny that Brandon Thornton didn't win this match. His final stand on that top turnbuckle was unbelievable!!
Johnny: I have to agree... Brandon Thornton really showed something here tonight. It's gonna take a few minutes to get this cleaned up.
:: The camera fades out to a locker room. It is deserted except for one man. He sits in the near dark. His hair is slightly long, hanging down over his ears. His beard is noticable. He stands up and a locker is open. Inside the locker see see several faded pictures taped to it. It's a picture of Michael Andrews and Awesome Australian, shaking hands at an old XBWL autograph session... The other picture visable under it is a picture of a cross and it says Andrews down it. The locker suddenly slams and the light illuminates the face of former XBWL champion Michael Andrews. He walks out of the locker room, dressed for action!! When we cut back to the live crowd they are cheering at the brief glimpse of one of their favorites. ::
Doc: Was that Michael Andrews?
Johnny: I believe it was Sir...
Doc: Wow! We're used to such a clean cut Michael Andrews... That sillouette wasn't the same clean cut young man we're used to, Johnny.
Johnny: It's been several years Doc... Michael Andrews isn't really a kid anymore. From what I've heard, he's had some problems over the years and it hasn't just been with the wrestling world. He's been battling some personal issues as well.
:: "SIGOR ROS" by Svefn G Englar starts to play into the XBWL arena and it starts to darken. The entranceway lights up and Michael Andrews steps forward into the light. He is unshaven, but not unkept. He has a neatly trimmed beard and his hair is his natural blonde, but down past his ears. As the gloomy music emmits, he walks down the aisle... The fans nearly drown the music out as he enters the arena... Michael Andrews walks down to the ring as the fans are going crazy cheering for him. They are in total shock that they are seeing their former champion here tonight!! ::
Doc: I can't believe the change in Michael Andrews...
Johnny: People grow up... Let's hope he's grown up for the better and gotten over his childish fantasies.
Doc: I always thought Michael Andrews was one of the most grounded young men in the XBWL during his time..
Johnny: Yeah.. Well hopefully he's turned into a smart adult.
:: Michael Andrews enters the ring and he walks around, looking at the fans and finally he cracks a smile and calls for a microphone. He stands there nodding in the center of the ring as the fans continue to show their respect. Finally he motions for them to stop and pulls the mic to his mouth. ::
Michael Andrews: You know... When I walked out through those curtains I didn't really know what I was going to say. I didn't know if I was going to need to come out here and explain myself... I didn't know if you were going to remember me. I didn't know if you were going to hate me. I know I have let a lot of the fans down over the years, but tonight will not be one of those nights. I am going to walk out of this arena tonight as a winner. I am going to redeem what was lost to me... I guarantee it...
:: Suddenly as Michael Andrews starts to talk, the entrance way lights up... "NOW I KNOW WHY YOU HATE ME" Blares into the Arena and first steps the Iron Yuppy from the curtains. Shortly he is followed by Mad Jester... Christopher Scarlett... Chang Takata and Monster Mac... ::
Johnny: OH........My.......Sweet......JESUS!!!
:: As Johnny stares in disbelief, and the Doc is at a loss for words the curtains open and out steps the man behind it all.... Standing before the XBWL audience for the first time in so many years is Kronos.... The founder of the Kronos Klan... The Kronos Klan who are usually hated and despised by the fans can't help but feel the shock as the fans give them a standing ovation. The thunderous ovation drowns Michael Andrews out in the middle of the ring. Michael Andrews looks down and shakes his head as the fans cheer for the Klan... Iron Yuppy runs to one end of the ramp and starts a riot as the fans break into a "FRANCHISE" chant... Mad Jester brandishes his sceptre and bows to the crowd. Chris Scarlett gives an arrogant nod to the fans and Monster Mac starts running around violently getting the fans on their feet. Chang Takata stands, staring a hole in his opponent for tonight... Michael Andrews... Mad Jester is the first to take the mic::
Mad Jester: What's wrong Mikey? See something you didn't want to see??!!?
:: Mad Jester laughs as Michael Andrews just stares forward at the crowd assembled in front of him. Kronos steps up and takes the mic. ::
Kronos: Michael Andrews... Tonight you have to face off against Chang Takata. Chang Takata is a member of the Kronos Klan so I'm sure you know what that means. That means we will all be down there supporting our boys!! You know... The other day I was digging around, watching some old videos and I came across something I think you might be interested in!!
:: The XBWL-Tron comes on... The date at the bottom reads 7/25/1998. ::
DIAMOND: The Franchise is still alive! Wait, where's Andrews going? Andrews
goes outside and grabs that almost broken table! He's going to end it right
here, come on Franchise! Michael Andrews brings that table back in the ring
and bang! Stick over the head, the Franchise is going nuts, he has plenty of
gas! The Franchise now takes the unconscious Michael Andrews and sets him up
on that table! He gives him the double middle finger and Iron Spike through
the table! It's over! Here's the cover, one, two, three! We have a new
champion! Yeah!
WINTERS: Here is your winner, in a time of thirty-eight minutes and eight
seconds, and new XBWL World Heavyweight Champion, the Franchise Iron Yuppy!
DOC: This place is electric! We have a new champion in the Franchise! Both he
and his opponent are about passed out in the ring there as this place is
rocking!
DIAMOND: Yeah, the Klan has the title! Yeah!
DOC: Finally both men begin to move slightly and pull the pieces of the table
from out of their body! The Franchise gets to one foot and Richard Cranium
hands him the gold! The Franchise has won the title again!
DIAMOND: Man, you have, have to give credit to Andrews. He gave the Franchise
all he could give, and it was one of the toughest matches in the Franchise's
long storied career! Andrews begins to leave the ring to a standing ovation
but the Franchise calls him back into the ring. What's he doing?
DOC: Andrews has a confused look on his face as, the Franchise offers a hand
shake to Michael Andrews! Michael Andrews looks around at the crowd, they go
insane, and they shake hands!
DIAMOND: What a class act by the Franchise right there Doc! He knows what a
great competitor Michael Andrews is and he's showing him the much deserved
respect! As the Franchise raises Michael Andrews' hand in the ai-- wait a
minute, from behind, Andrews goes down!
DOC: A man dressed in black with a mask takes out Michael Andrews and the
Franchise gets ready to fight him. This place s going wild as the man begins
to take his mask off, it-- IT'S MONSTER MAC!!!
DIAMOND: It's the Monster Mac! This place is insane! The Monster Mac kicks
Andrews out of the ring and gives the Franchise the Rock as the Mad Jester
comes to ringside to join the party! You can bet Andrews will have a lot to
say about the Monster Mac after this incident! But, the party's going on, and
I gotta' join it!
DOC: Well have fun Johnny, don't drink too much! Man, what a night it has
been! We've seen wrestlers exploded, tables broken, bones broken, what more
could you have asked for? Oh man, well, We're just about our of time for this
year's Summer Sizzler! For my broadcast partner Johnny Diamond, I'm the
Wrestling Doctor saying goodnight, we hope you enjoyed the show

It than shows Andrews plow into Hawk, he is holding onto the broken cable a few feet above the ring. Andrews plows down Hawk and both go towards the mat. However, in the confusion. Hawk hooks Andrews in a modified Soviet form and manages to spin his weight against Andrews, creating a corkscrew effect. Hawk ends up on top of Andrews and puts him down for the one, two, three. )

Kronos: Yeah... FLYGUY!!
Mad Jester: BWHAHAHAHAH!! You're KIDDING RIGHT?!?
:: Michael Andrews walks over and kicks the ropes... His anger is swelling.. He has just witnessed all three of his World Title losses and now it's burned in his mind. Michael Andrews pulls the microphone up to his face, red heat rising from his neck and flushing his face. ::
Michael Andrews: FIRST OF ALL!!! The Klan has lost more belts combined than any other group in the history of this league! You guys are great! Comical! You interfere with matches and you can get the job done!! Good for you!! You must a proud papa Kronos, because you have just assembled the biggest bunch of failures that the XBWL has ever seen. Let me just break this down real quick for you ok?
:: Michael Andrews pauses and looks over the fans who are stunned at his sudden show of emotions... He looks up at the Kronos Klan who have all stopped talking, and are standing, staring at Andrews. ::
Michael Andrews: You have a big mouth Mad Jester... Let's look at your history shall we? You won your first World Title because Flyguy VACATED the title! You won an 18 man Battle Royal that featured half of your friends who threw out the other competitors and cleared the way for you before you cleared the ring of THEM and took the title for your own greedy pleasure! Then let's look at your defeat shall we? You didn't even have the guts to defend the belt! YOU LEFT THE XBWL AND LET THE TITLE GO VACANT!! I defended my World Heavyweight Title every opportunity that I got... The law of averages say that I had to lose it eventually... Oh! Oh! Let's go to the second one shall we? Ok... You and Awesome Australian convince the nieve Legacy that it would be a great idea to defend his title at what was basically a TRAINING event for us. You pinned him outta no where and made it count! Do you even think he realized what was going on? NO! Imagine how confused the fans were when not only did you have the title, but you LOST it that same day only a few minutes later to Awesome Australian! Now... Let's look at your next match. You were picked as an opponent by Creeping Death as PUNISHMENT to your brother Deathstroke! You were just a sacrifice so that Creeping Death would be able to smash you up... I guess they didn't expect the Trio of Terror to manipulate ANOTHER World Title win... And by the way Jester.. That night was the night I had one of my first pay per view wins! After the lights went out and they ended the show, they let me and a couple other rookies have a nice little three way dance and I WON! I was on fire that night and I was SO excited... I walked to the back with my head in the clouds... I ran into you and told you how awesome it was to see you win the title, just making some conversation and all I get is "Who are you?" and then you walked away with Iron Yuppy and Monster Mac... Well you found out who I was didn't you?
:: Michael Andrews shakes his head and looks up at the ramp, glaring at the group of former champions in front of him. ::
Michael Andrews: Now.. Let's dissect the career of the "Franchise" shall we? The Iron Yuppy!
:: Iron Yuppy steps forward at the mention of his name... He looks down the aisle at Michael Andrews. ::
Michael Andrews: You're very first World Title win came over a man named Grizzle. Now back in the day.. I have to say, he was a nice mid card talent maybe. He never deserved to a World Champion! But that's what happens when a league is very new and they're trying to get on their feet. People like you take advantage of people like Grizzle and take away the World Title after he's only had it for eight days. Good for you Yuppy... That's the actions of a TRUE champion right there!
:: Iron Yuppy acts like he's going to go down the aisle, but he is stopped by Monster Mac and Mad Jester. ::
Michael Andrews: And for your second World Title... You beat.. ME... Yeah... I lost.. Big deal. That's what happens when you defend the World Heavyweight Title on nearly every show because the fans can't get enough. And you couldn't STAND it when I offered my hand and you had to shake it. Two seconds later, here comes Monster Mac attacking me from behind.. Klan orders I am sure... How many times did you defend that title before you lost it Yuppy? Once? Twice? You finally had to put it up in a best of three falls match, and you lost the belt to Awesome Australian! Hell.. You didn't even try for a rematch. You came out four days later and begged him to tag with you against the WWFW.
:: Iron Yuppy grabs a microphone. ::
Iron Yuppy: I can't believe you want to be disrespecting me! I didn't do anything to you! I'm Klan and that's in my blood! I am going to be out here with my boys. You have a match tonight against Chang Takata and that's just the way it is. It's between you and him, but you're really working on making it between you, Chang and the entire fucking Kronos Klan... WHATCHA' THINK ABOUT THAT STICK!?
:: Iron Yuppy stares a hole in Andrews. ::
Michael Andrews: Bring it on Yuppy... Bring it on... I've been waiting nearly seven years to get another piece of you!
:: Iron Yuppy starts back towards the ring again, but he's held back by the rest of the Klan.... The situation begins to get volitale and Kronos starts ushering the Klan to the back. ::
Michael Andrews: What's wrong? I was still ready to go? Let me have a turn at Monster Mac! Chris Scarlet! Come on? Where you guys going?
:: The Klan leaves except for Kronos and Chang Takata who make their way to the ring. ::
Johnny: I cannot believe the NERVE of Michael Andrews to suggest this bullshit! He's disrespecting the Kronos Klan! The greatest group of wrestlers to EVER grace the XBWL!
Doc: You can't honestly be that blinded by loyalty to the Kronos Klan! They were trying to screw with Michael Andrews head before his match here today with Chang Takata! They wanted to distract him from being able to focus, but I think that Michael Andrews just turned it around and put some fear into the Klan!
Johnny: Nobody puts fear into the Klan... NOBODY!
:: Chang Takata enters the ring and listens to Kronos and nods as he hears what he has to say. Michael Andrews gets checked out by the referee, constantly keeping his eyes on both Kronos and Chang Takata. ::
Johnny: Chang Takata is one of our japanese aquisitions. He was originally brought over as extra muscle for the Klan and eventually he captured the AJCW World Title and when he won the XBWL World Heavyweight Title, the belts were unified.
Doc: Have any Klan members ever NOT won the World Title?
Johnny: Well... I have never held an XBWL title!
Doc: But you're not a member of the Klan... You're just a tag along.
Johnny: I might as well be... I'm there for everything.
Doc: I wouldn't let Andrews hear you boast about being a Klan member.

AA lifts up Michael Andrews and sits him in the corner. He then lifts up Chang Takata and sits him in the other corner. He yells at the referee to get into the ring!! The referree enters and AA pushes Iron Yuppy and Monster Mac outside!! Legacy and AA step to the outside and the ring is finally clear!! ::

Johnny: Kronos Klan is going to destroy Awesome Australian later in this very show.
Doc: Maybe, but Armageddon has already won round one with the Klan.
Johnny: I thought that Michael Andrews wasn't in Armageddon?
Doc: He's not.. But the battle lines are drawn.
:: The screen fades out and fades to the back locker room. The Beast, Matt Austin and Hawk Henshaw are sitting in the locker room talking. Hawk Henshaw is strapping up his tights and lacing his boots. ::
Matt Austin: So Hawk man... I heard a whole lot of rumors. I heard you might have died in 9/11. I called and paged... I tried my best to get in touch with you, but I couldn't find you at all. What happened man?
Hawk Henshaw: Not really something I want to talk about. I lost my fiance in the towers... I had a tour of Afganistan, but I learned quickly that the military life was not for me. They gave me special permission to reenlist, since I had been in before, but seeing a few of my brothers die out there made me start to miss civilian life real quick. I was given a release for psychiatric reasons.
Matt Austin: Man.. I'm sorry to hear that. I guess the three of us really lost touch over the past few years. It's good to see the Elements of Supremacy back together again. ya know?
:: The Beast pats Matt Austin on the back. ::
The Beast: One of you are gonna bring the World Title home to the Elements of Supremacy and I'm bringing home the Hardcore Title where it belongs. No reason for all three of us to be in this World Title tournament because they'd have a Elements of Supremacy lined card and we'd all be fighting each other!
Hawk Henshaw: The talent here isn't all push overs though. And now we have the Empire of Damage breathing down our neck and we have Kronos Klan and Armegeddon here tonight as well.
Matt Austin: Let Legacy get within ten feet of me and I'll end his fucking career again!
Hawk Henshaw: Careful there stud. I think we have more problems to worry about with Kronos Klan and Empire of Damage.
Matt Austin: Well I'm going to make Creeping Death my BITCH, but right now you have Mr. Rage and you gotta go out there and take care of business. If you get in any trouble at all, me and The Beast will have your back!
Hawk Henshaw: I know Matt... I don't doubt that... Let's take care of business!
:: The screen fades back to the sold out XBWL Arena and finally back to Wrestling Doctor and Johnny Diamond. ::
Doc: And that's the next match we have!!

After a couple of moments, the crowd dies down with the booing enough to let Mr. Rage continue to the ring. He slides under the bottom rope and Phantom Lord stands in the corner. Creeping Death begins circling the outside of the ring, looking in. ::
Doc: Hawk Henshaw may have his work cut out for hime here tonight.

Johnny: But tonight he has to beat one of the best! He has to beat Mr. Rage! Mr. Rage is a member of the Empire of Damage and he's flanked by Creeping Death!!
:: Hawk Henshaw looks down the ramp and looks at what is waiting on him. He shakes his head and walks to the back. His music starts again as he comes out... This time without the belt, without the flag, but being flanked by Matt Austin and The Beast! The Elements of Supremacy makes their way to ringside!! ::
Doc: They aren't gonna take it laying down! Empire of Damage is going to have to take them ALL on if they want to interfere!!
Johnny: There's a lot more Empire of Damage than there is Elements of Supremacy...
:: "Hail to the Chief" plays and Johnny Macaroni steps out from the back. ::

:: Creeping Death and Phantom Lord start going spastic at the ringside area. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Now don't you all have matches to get ready for? Get the hell back to the back, I don't want any excuses!
:: Creeping Death and Phantom Lord don't like it, but they have no choice but to go to the back. Matt Austin and The Beast wait until they go to the back, and then they go to the back as well. ::
Doc: Well it looks like Johnny Macaroni has laid down the law.. Looks like we're just going to see a great wrestling match here tonight! Not a huge brawl!
Johnny: That wasn't really fair for the Empire of Damage, but as long as Matt Austin and The Beast are gone.. I'll be ok with it... Mr. Rage is an old school competitor and he'll do just fine against Hawk Henshaw. When Hawk Henshaw was still a kid wrestling has Hollywood Henshaw, Mr. Rage was winning World Titles!

Doc: I was there... I remember that night.
Johnny: What are you talking about?
Doc: When Worlds Collide III... Flyguy and Claw met for the EVCW United States Heavyweight Championship.
Johnny: I think I might have been drunk that night.. Probably hanging out with real wrestlers like Iron Yuppy and Monster Mac...
Doc: No... They were both there...
Johnny: Well Um...
Doc: Flyguy and Claw went to the limit... They pushed each other to the end and nothing was really settled thanks to Death Warrants interferance...

Doc: Matt Austin is gonna have to be careful in this one! It could be over in a moment!
Johnny: Creeping Death a huge monster that has reaked havoc on the XBWL in the past.
:: Creeping Death sits for a moment in the headlock and stands up with no trouble! Matt Austin is still clenching as hard as he can!! Trying to cut off the oxygen supply to the brain!!

CD pulls him to his feet again and lifts him again, driving him down with a huge tilt a whil slam! Matt Austin lays motionless as Creeping Death lays his boot on his neck and stands up, causing the referee to start the four count. ONE!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!!! THREE!!!!!!!! FOU- NO! Creeping Death lets go at the last possible second and the referee is forced to stop the count. Creeping Death pulls Matt Austin up and slings him into the turnbuckle. Creeping Death rushes in with a huge body avalanche and crushes Austin in the corner. Matt Austin falls on his face and Creeping Death drops a huge elbow on him! Matt Austin lays still motionless as Creeping Death pulls him up again and slings him into the ropes. Matt Austin rebounds and CD nearly takes his head off with a huge clotheline that causes Matt Austin to spin in the air before crashing into the mat with a huge THUD!!
Doc: Creeping Death is really keeping Matt Austin busy! Matt Austin hasn't had the chance to regain momentum!
Johnny: He'll never regain momentum at this rate, CD is just taking him apart piece by piece. Matt Austin hasn't been taken apart like this anytime that I can remember. This is a fight he will never forget!
:: CD starts laying the boots to Matt Austin again. CD stomps on his ribs and his sternum. CD finally hits the ropes and comes off with a huge elbow and he lays on the mat for a moment. His energy is wearing out from all the tossing and throwing of Matt Austin. CD finally sits back up and pulls Matt Austin back up.

Matt Austin ducks out of the ring and runs around the side!! CD follows and Matt Austin ducks back into the ring and starts taunting CD again!

CD stands breathing hard and finally falls to his knees and covers!! ONE!!!!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!!! NO!!! Matt Austin kicks out!!
Johnny: What the hell is Matt Austin doing? I've never seen him wrestle this way before.
Doc: I have no idea.. I've never seen cowardice from Austin before.
:: Matt Austin stands to his feet much faster than CD who stays in the crawling position for a moment to regain his breath. Matt Austin runs up and then makes two quick boots to the ribs before hopping over the top rope and to the floor! Matt Austin suddenly trips and falls flat on his face!! The fans are in shock as Matt Austin doesn't move.. The referee walks over and looks over the top rope and begins to yell at Austin to find out if he's ok. Creeping Death smells the possible victory and seems to get a second wind, rushing over and climbing over the top rope dropping to the floor! Creeping Death grabs Matt Austin and pulls him up but Matt Austin suddenly comes alive!! Matt Austin slings CD's hand away and runs across to the other guardrail where he trips and falls again!! CD just looks, unsure of what is going on. The fans begin to boo as their hero seems to be messed up or on some type of drug, unable to fight or walk. CD rushes over once again!! Seemingly with the victory smile on his face. He stomps on Matt Austin's back a couple times and then, when he's satisfied that his opponent is indeed not moving, he pulls him up and heaves him up for a suplex! Matt Austin doesn't fight back, but as soon as CD picks him up, Matt Austin starts twisting and turning, causing CD to try to fight to keep him up! CD's strength begins to fade and he is forced to sit Austin down! CD falls to a knee, breathing hard with a his hands on the guardrail for support!! Matt Austin boots his hand off the guardrail and CD tries to get up again! CD swings a right hand at Austin out of desperation and Austin moves! Austin kicks CD in the same knee he has been working a few more times while ducking wild punches from CD... Matt Austin rushes around the other side of the ring and stands there as CD makes his way around the ring. As CD gets close to Matt Austin, Matt Austin leaps up on the apron and propels himself over the top rope before rushing to the opposite corner. CD looks on with frustration as he gets into the ring. CD starts over towards the corner and Matt Austin rushes forward, with a baseball drop kick, right into the knee he has been working on all along! Matt Austin takes the knee out and CD falls face first into the mat! Matt Austin walks over to the other turnbuckle and stands there, waiting on CD to get up!! ::
Johnny: Matt Austin isn't even TRYING to fight... He's just sitting around, almost toying with Creeping Death! This is a huge mistake for Austin!
Doc: I almost agree with you, but I think that Matt Austin knows what he's doing. What exactly he IS doing though, is still yet to be revealed!
:: CD gets up, stretching his back and flexing his knee. Slobber slowly accumulates at both sides of his mouth as he walks over towards where Matt Austin is! CD swings and Matt Austin ducks under it, and then runs to the opposite turnbuckle. When CD turns around to face him, Matt Austin yells "COME ON.. YOU SUCK!" Creeping Death becomes infuriated and rushes at Matt Austin.. Matt Austin waits and at the last possible moment, he ducks and hits Creeping Death with a drop toe hold that sends Creeping Death's skull crashing into that top turnbuckle. Matt Austin stands up and pushes Creeping Death outside of the ring and Creeping Death hits hard on the concrete floor outside. Creeping Death looks back up at Matt Austin and slams his fist into the floor. Matt Austin just stands at laughs at Creeping Death who rolls back into the ring and goes after Austin again! Creeping Death's fists and movement has slowed tremendously since the match started, and he is terribly winded. Matt Austin ducks two attempts at a punch by Creeping Death and then boots Creeping Death in the midsection. Creeping Death falls to his knees and Matt Austin rushes back, hits the other turnbuckle and then comes off with a drop kick right into the skull of Creeping Death. The momentum from the dropkick causes Creeping Death to fall back through the ropes and hit the floor again! Matt Austin steps out of the ring on the other side and sits in a chair at ringside!! He grabs a bottled water from a fan, dumps it over his head and drinks down the last couple of sips! Creeping Death starts pulling himself up as Matt Austin begins to sign autographs at ringside!!! Creeping Death rushes around the ring and goes after Matt Austin, but Matt Austin just simply ducks and rushes around the ring to the other side.

Matt Austin signs another autograph as the big monster of a man gets to him.

Johnny: I told you! This cowardice by Matt Austin has finally gotten to Creeping Death!! Creeping Death just smashed Austin into the concrete!!!!
Doc: Yeah, but it barely phased Austin and Austin is getting up! Creeping Death is sluggish and barely able to move!!
:: Matt Austin stands back up, as Creeping Death takes longer. As soon as Creeping Death gets nearly to his feet, Matt Austin unloads on him with punch after punch into the side of his head!!! Matt Austin fires punch after punch!! Creeping Death swings wild right and lefts to block and connect with Austin but Matt Austin is able to avoid it all!!! Matt Austin finally starts kicking CD in the side of the head and CD falls to his face!!! Matt Austin walks over and stands behind CD!! Matt AUstin grabs both of the big monsters legs and then steps forward!! He lifts him up!! CONVICTION BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matt Austin slams Creeping Death into the cement with his devestating Conviction Bomb!! Matt Austin falls back a moment with a smile on his face and rolls over and climbs back into the ring. Creeping Death lays on the cement as Matt Austin walks around the ring, posing and calling the fans to his cause. Creeping Death lays for a few moments before finally getting up. He has a small place on his forehead where Matt Austin has nailed him into the cement, but he's not bleeding bad. Creeping Death starts to get up and Matt Austin holds his finger up, indicating for the fans to give him one moment. He rushes across the ring and flies over the top rope with a somersault plancha that connects hard on Creeping Death!! Creeping Death falls back into the cement and Matt Austin rolls back into the ring and starts to entertain the fans some more as they chant AUSTIN! AUSTIN! AUSTIN! ::
Doc: Matt Austin is being unusually cocky and arrogant tonight!
Johnny: He's taking a break in a match against someone like Creeping Death!! He's going to get hurt!!
Doc: I hope he has a plan!!
:: Matt Austin looks over at Creeping Death who is barely moving and waves him off, laughing as he exits the ring. Matt Austin signs a couple of autographs and even poses with a couple of children for photographs before Creeping Death gets to his feet. Creeping Death slowly walks over to where Matt Austin is and Matt Austin runs around the ring. Creeping Death stalks over towards him again and Matt Austin rolls into the ring!! Creeping Death pulls himself up to the apron with his knee and Matt Austin hits the ropes, coming off with a hard knee to the midsection of the climbing Creeping Death that sends him back into the railing!!! Creeping Death stumbles forward and Matt Austin hits the opposite ropes again and comes back, flipping over the top rope with another somersault plancha that plants Creeping Death back into the cement. Matt Austin stands on the back of Creeping Death and reaches over, shaking some hands with a couple of young men with University of Louisville shirts on. Matt Austin then signs the back of their shirts and then walks off Creeping Death and shaking hands with several more of the fans at ringside. Matt Austin walks around the ring slapping hands and signing the occassional autograph for nearly five minutes before Creeping Death gets back to his feet. Creeping Death walks over towards him and Matt Austin is a little distracted!! Creeping Death slams a big forearm smash on Austin and Austin falls forward!! Creeping Death grabs him by the hair and slings him into the railing!! Creeping Death walks over and pulls Austin up before slinging him into the ring with a lunge and a yell!! Matt Austin rolls into the ring, holding his nose that is bleeding!! Creeping Death pulls himself up, and enters the ring through the ropes, too tired to go over the top!! ::
Johnny: He should have paid attention... Now Matt Austin is about to face the wrath of Creeping Death from the Empire of Damage! Hah!! Prepare to be DAMAGED!
Doc: Well Matt Austin was very arrogant tonight, and he may have made a terrible mistake!!
:: As Creeping Death gets near Austin, Austin suddenly kicks up!! Creeping Death is surprised, unsure of what is going on!!! Matt Austin ducks a punch attempt and laughes as he bounces off the ropes and nails Creeping Death with an elbow!! Creeping Death stumbles and Matt Austin grabs his leg!!! Matt Austin hoists his leg and grabs the back of his neck!! MACPLEX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Matt Austin plants Creeping Death in the center of the ring and then covers him!! ONE!!!!!!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!! THREE!!!!!!!!!!!! ::
Doc: OH GOD!! Matt Austin was playing the whole time!!
Johnny: WHAT THE HELL?
Doc: Matt Austin was just pretending to be hurt just like before!! Matt Austin has ran Creeping Death ALL around the ring.. Don't you see it? Creeping Death is obviously out of shape from his years outside the ring and his huge size!! Matt Austin used his quickness and agility to stay one step ahead of Creeping Death, just avoiding the major attacks and taking a few minor ones until Creeping Death was completely wore out!
Johnny: What a Faker!!!
Doc: It was beautiful!!! Matt Austin took Creeping Death apart slowly and waited till he exerted all of his energy and could simply not fight back against the Macplex!!!!
Johnny: There's no way that Matt Austin could have gotten the MacPlex on Creeping Death if he wasn't run to death chasing this coward!
Doc: He wasn't being a coward Doc! He was being smart!! He used his own great conditioning to his advantage as he just simply took Creeping Death to the limit of his condition and then used his own conserved strength and power to take apart the big man.
Johnny: I have to admit it was an interesting move, but it was the move of a coward!
Doc: UH OH! Here comes Empire of Damage!! Elements of Supremacy will be soon to follow!!!
:: The capacity crowd boo's as King Nothing, Machine, Motorbreath, Snakecharmer, Mr. Rage, Mr. Misery and Phantom Lord start walking down the aisle. Creeping Death slowly gets up in the ring as Matt Austin looks down the ramp at the Empire of Damage!! Matt Austin steps back a little and walks right into Creeping Death! Creeping Death grabs Matt Austin and Chokeslams him in the center of the ring as the Empire of Damage rush the ring and all get inside!!! Phantom Lord brandishes a couple pairs of handcuffs and they spread Matt Austin out in a corner and handcuff him to a rope on either side!!! The Empire of Damage each take turns punching Matt Austin as he struggles to get back up! ::
Johnny: He's screwed now!
Doc: Where are the Elements of Supremacy!!?
:: As though the Empire can hear Doc, Phantom Lord grabs a microphone. ::
Phantom Lord: Now... We have a special show here tonight for some people in the back. If Johnny Macaroni won't let us help out our people in the ring, then we're going to make sure that the person they beat DOES NOT continue in this tournament!!
:: The XBWL-Tron comes on to reveal Hawk Henshaw and The Beast in the back. They are both tied to chairs and are beaten and bloody. They are sitting in a room with a TV that is showing the footage in the ring! ::
Phantom Lord: Hawk Henshaw... Beast... I hope you enjoy the show!
:: Phantom Lord goes outside the ring and stacks up three folding chairs. He pushes them into the ring and then climbs back in himself. Creeping Death, Mr. Rage and Mr. Misery all take chairs and begin to take turns smashing them into the face and head of Matt Austin! Matt Austin tries to fight back at first, kicking out and trying to pull himself free of the handcuffs, but eventually he is taken down to his knees by the chairs! Finally he is just hanging there by his arms and absorbing chair shots. ::
SMASH!!
SMASH!!
SMASH!!!
:: The trio of chair wielders take turn after turn of hitting Matt Austin with the chairs. He is bleeding from his head and his face and is completely devestated. By the time they stop for a breather, they have hit the former champion with over a hundred chair shots! Security tries to break this up a few times, but they are taken out by the other Empire of Damage members!! Hawk Henshaw and The Beast tear and pull at their restraints in the back trying to get free to come to the aide of their friend!!! Finally Phantom Lord takes the microphone. ::
Phantom Lord: Now... As I arrived here today... I had to ask myself why I didn't get a direct invitation to bring the Empire of Damage here tonight from my old friend Johnny Macaroni... I mean... Years ago, it turns out that I did screw him on a real estate deal and he lost a couple million in it. Now, as it turns out... Johnny Macaroni was fully going to let the Empire of Damage sit this memorial show out.. He was going to screw EVERYONE here out of the opportunity to appear because he was pissed off at me. Well, Johnny Macaroni basically told me that unless I forked over three million dollars and compensated him, then there would be no way that the Empire would be allowed here tonight.
:: The fans boo and Creeping Death takes his chair to Matt Austin's skull again!! ::
Phantom Lord: We really didn't know what to do, and truth be told, we really didn't have that kind of money. We were going to have to sit at home and watch this spectacular event on TV, when suddenly I got a phone call from a man I had never met before. I didn't know him, but he knew me. He knew me well and he knew my old friendship with Johnny Macaroni and the man wanted a FAVOR! Can you believe that.. He wanted a FAVOR from me.. He wanted ME to ask MACARONI for a FAVOR for someone I had never met before... I laughed at him and hung up. Well... As it turns out, this man was very persistant.. He called me back the next day with serious business to talk. I realized that this man had money.. He had the money to talk and he was willing to pay.
:: Creeping Death smashes Matt Austin again as the fans boo. ::
Phantom Lord: I was really surprised with the favor he asked... He said that he wanted Matt Austin to die tonight and he wanted US to perform the execution. Well we contacted Macaroni and we came to a bargain. I agreed to pay Macaroni the money he lost PLUS another extra million dollars if he would make sure that two matches got made tonight. Mr. Rage against Hawk Henshaw and Creeping Death against Matt Austin... I was pretty sure that Legacy was going to take out The Beast already and we didn't really see that swerve coming where he Beast would end up chickening out, but that's another ironic twist I guess...
:: The Beast and Hawk Henshaw try furiously to get free and a man in a black hood walks up behind them. He is wielding a black baseball bat that is covered in glass. He smashes it across the face of Beast and then across the face of Henshaw... The man stands up and says "I'm Coming...".
Phantom Lord: Well it looks like the man who paid to get Empire of Damage on the memorial show and managed to pay enough to bribe even Johnny Macaroni is coming to the ring!! You're about to meet the man who wants you DEAD... You hear me Austin?
:: Phantom Lord lifts up the face of Austin that is beaten and bloody but Matt Austin doesn't even respond. Mr. Rage and Creeping Death smash the chairs together with Matt Austin's head in between. ::
Phantom Lord: It was an interesting twist of Macaroni to stop us from coming down, threatening to fire us... Because I know that he would... All he needs is a reason and we damn sure weren't going to give him one... Not until we had time to expose him and take out the Elements of Supremacy! See Macaroni... In my own little twisted mind.. This is the perfect nail in the coffin for the XBWL... Nobody will trust you.. You accepted bribes and you accepted money to let people into the ring tonight that had other motives... You put every superstar in the back in jeopardy and you even set up matches for us as we piled on the greenbacks. Well Johnny Macaroni... You're World Title tournament is a failure... YOU are a failure as a President.. Corruption and bribes run deep in your history as a president.. I wouldn't be surprised if you're not taking money from the Kronos Klan here tonight to rig matches for them as well!
:: "Bent" By Matchbox Twenty plays and the man in the black mask walks out. He is carrying his glass coated black bat that is now dripping the blood of Hawk Henshaw and The Beast... He is wearing a long black coat that is buttoned up as he walks down the ramp. He walks down as the fans boo. ::
Phantom Lord: Well without any further delay!
:: The Empire of Damage stop and line up, waiting for this man to enter the ring. ::
Phantom Lord: The man who has single handedly brough the Empire of Damage back to the XBWL... The benefactor and the man who has paid of Macaroni.. Hell... Even Macaroni doesn't know who he is!! He thinks it was ME!!! Well thinks are about to get ALOT clearer!!
:: The man enters the ring. He walks over to where Matt Austin hangs unconsious. Security lay everywhere around the ring and then the man reaches up.... and pulls off his mask to reveal...........another mask... THE MASK OF CARNAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ::
Phantom Lord: HAHAHA!!!!!! Join me in extending a welcome to the XBWL HARDCORE CHAMPION!!!!!!!!!!!
:: Carnage throws off his coat to reveal the XBWL Hardcore Championship strapped to his waist. He looks around as the fans boo and yell obsentities at him. Carnage wastes no time before rushing forward and smashing Matt Austin with the bat several times before grabbing the microphone from Phantom Lord. ::
Carnage: THAT'S RIGHT AUSTIN! Our business was NEVER finished! I masqueraded around the XBWL as you for MONTHS and nobody fucking knew. You're almost my twin and nobody realized it till I took off my mask. Which brings me to an interesting point... Brother...
:: The fans are in shock as Carnage makes his revelation. ::
Carnage: That's right... My own fucking brother... When you appeared in the XBWL so long ago, I had to ask myself what the hell was going on with you. I saw you on T.V. and you were definantly a close resemblance to me... That's why I had to hide behind the mask for so long.
:: Carnage reaches up and tosses his "Carnage" mask off to reveal a face that is very similar to Matt Austin and if Matt Austin wasn't currently standing in front of us, we wouldn't know it wasn't him. ::
Carnage: So how the hell does this happen? Another wrestling plan? A make-up trick? Well... No... I have figured out what the hell happened. And maybe after I tell you a little story that you can watch on video tape later, then you might understand. We're not totally brothers... In fact, you're my half brother. My mother met a man one night that told her lies about love and some crazy shit about how beautiful she was and he ended up spending the night with her. That's right Austin... It's your own crazy no good father that's currently serving life in a Georgia Prison for raping those two girls in Atlanta...
:: Carnage walks over and slams the bat into Matt Austin's back and grinds it down, scraping his back. ::
Carnage: So while you went to high school and had a great life, wonderful beautiful life, I had to suffer... My mother had no money and had to live on welfare. While you wore Nike's, I was lucky enough to wear some fucking K-Mart shoes that retailed for $5.99... My mother had to turn to prostitution because of our father. He ruined her life! She lost her job when she couldn't perform while she was pregnant. All thewhile this great man who told her how great she was and how she was going to be EVERYTHING to him sat on the couch and watched T.V. She worked two jobs until she lost them both and finally she was forced to go to the hospital to have me. And what do you think happened? That's right.. He fucking left.. But where did he go? Where did he go to in such a hurry? Why, He went home to his fucking wife and his little boy Matt. Suddenly he "found his place in life" and my mother never heard from him again. Years ago I was sitting at home and flipping through some channels and I came across a wrestling show... XBWL... It caught my attention because of some of the brutality and so I watched a little more. Next thing you know... I see YOU! You have MY face!! You're FAMOUS! While I'm working at a factory and struggling to make it, supporting my mother in her bad health... So I started doing research... I started trying to figure out why you had my FACE! I had finally found my dear old dad... When I went to find him, and put a bullet in his head... I found out he was in prison, but YOU were there... The pride of his life... The little boy he loved so much... Even though he has a serious sex addiction, he still cares about YOU.. He never even looked for me.. HE NEVER EVEN SENT ME A BIRTHDAY CARD, BUT HE RAISED YOU AND GAVE YOU EVERYTHING!!!!
:: Carnage stops for a moment and then slams the bat into Matt Austin's head. ::
Carnage: What's so special about you anyway? I knew the first thing I had to have was money. Money talks. So I started training myself for YOUR profession. I was less built than you and I had to put on some bulk fast. I turned to steroids and they worked! I began training and conditioning myself to become a wrestler. After a couple years I began to feel that I was actually ready to come to the XBWL. I knew I had to hide my face or you would realize something was going on, so for many months I began dressing like you and walking around backstage talking to the help and carefully avoiding you. I found out exactly what kind of talent that the XBWL was looking for and I created an image of that. I put on the mask of "Carnage" and I finally got the try out. It wasn't long before I was right there beside you... Watching everything... The night that they caught you shooting up backstage and sent you off to rehab was the night I showed my face. The management was in shock, but they realized quickly what they had. They had Matt Austin... They had their champion right there in front of them. The only part was the legality of it so I legally changed my name to Matt Austin. From then on out, I was legally YOU... The only thing that the XBWL didn't plan on was you coming back and reclaiming your throne... I dropped the title for them the very next day and basically kept a low profile. I had to wrestle as Matt Austin and Carnage and several times I had to wrestle in the same night. It was a hellish schedule but it was worth it to collect two paychecks. I started investing and learning the stock market and next thing you know I didn't need the wrestling business to keep going. I certainly didn't need your worthless name to get me by. So I put the Carnage mask back on permanently and I tried to get back to my life... But you knew... You figured it out and you came after me... You exposed me but the fans didn't really understand what was going on because they never saw my face... Well Matt.. Now I'm going to finish this... I wasn't even going to be able to wrestle here tonight... Johnny Macaroni told me to show up with the Hardcore Title and he'd find someone for me. Hell of a coincidence that your best friend The Beast decided he wanted a piece of me for the Hardcore Title... But I'll gladly defend it against him...
:: Carnage walks over and smashes the bat again on Matt Austin as more security comes out and starts trying to get into the ring, only to be fought off by the Empire of Damage. ::
Carnage: Tonight I got to put away you... Tomorrow night I will put the final touches on The Beast... The Empire of Damage is now owned and led by Carnage. Or should we say "Corporate Carnage"? Nah... I prefer the ass kicking, wild eyed, son of a bitch that'll do anything!!! Beast... Tomorrow night... The Hardcore Title will be defended... You will get your shot.. It's just a shame that you gave up your spot in the XBWL World Title Tournament to get a shot a belt you'll never win. PREPARE TO BE DAMAGED!!!!!!!!!
:: Carnage tosses the microphone as he screams the catch phrase of the Empire of Damage... The fans boo and throw trash in the ring. Carnage takes his bat and slams it into the head of Matt Austin a few more times... Suddenly "Hail to the Chief" plays over the speakers and Johnny Macaroni walks out... As the fans see him they begin to boo, now knowing that this man they respected and adored was bought off and coerced into accepting bribes... bribes that may have cost them their greatest champion... Matt Austin is laying motionless only supported by the handcuffs that hold him. Underneath him the blood has filled the ring and his body is drenched in it. Johnny Macaroni tries to calm the fans down but they don't listen. Carnage picks up his microphone again and Phantom Lord grabs another one from ringside as Johnny Macaroni prepares to talk. ::
Phantom Lord: Nobody wants to hear your side of the story Johnny Macaroni! We've heard the TRUTH!
:: Johnny Macaroni looks down as the fans continue to boo... Glasses of beer and cups of ice land around him as he just shakes his head. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I admit it...
:: Before he can say another word, the fans drown him out with boo's. ::
Johnny Macaroni: But you don't understand!!! I wanted more than anything to bring the XBWL back again! Don't you see? I had to spend all of my savings, I had to drain my bank and even tap out every last investor just to get the rights to the XBWL and the arena!!! I couldn't afford to pay the announcers!!! I coudln't afford to hire the ring staff!! I coudln't afford Security!! I had tapped out the last of my possible banks... I was already on the verge of having to cancel this show when they came along and offered me the money they owed me PLUS they offered to give me a million to make sure they got a couple matches... How did I know that Empire of Damage had any plans? I thought they just wanted to PROVE themselves against champions from the new generation!!!
:: The fans boo. ::
Phantom Lord: They ain't buying it!
Carnage: You lousy piece of SHIT! You're not a president!! You're scum!
:: Johnny Macaroni drops his head. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I have dumped everything into this... The XBWL was my life... I wanted SO bad to have the rights to the XBWL again... To bring it to the fans.. That's all I wanted... To bring it to the fans...
:: Johnny Macaroni drops the microphone and turns to leave... ::
Phantom Lord: HEY! HEY MACARONI! I HAVE A CHALLENGE FOR YOU!
:: Johnny Macaroni shakes his head and turns back around. ::
Phantom Lord: Tomorrow night!! ME AND YOU!! You hear me!? ME AND YOU!!! I challenge you for the rights to the XBWL!! You want to prove something? Prove to them you can EARN the XBWL!
:: Johnny Macaroni looks around as the fans boo. ::
Johnny Macaroni: It doesn't matter... I have lost their respect
.
Phantom Lord: So how about it Mac!? Put it ALL on the line...
Johnny Macaroni: It's not worth it... Not worth it at all... Sorry Phantom Lord.. I'm not losing the XBWL again... Even if the fans hate what I have done, It would be better off to die here than to fall into your hands...
:: Johnny Macaroni turns to leave and Carnage grabs the microphone. ::
Carnage: HEY! I got an idea.... I got something for you!! How about you have something to fight for!!? Tomorrow Night!! Phantom Lord v/s Johnny Macaroni!! If Phantom Lord wins... He gets all rights to the XBWL.. But if you win... Empire of Damage will LEAVE the XBWL!
:: Johnny Macaroni stops for a moment... Then he looks up.. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Me and Phantom Lord... If I win... Empire of Damage will be gone forever?
Carnage: Forever!
Johnny Macaroni: Then that is what I have to do... But if anyone intereferes in the match.. They will be automatically fired... They will be fired from the XBWL and they will NEVER come back.. and just to be sure that nobody is fired and rehired for helping you... Anyone who intereferes will be BLACKLISTED from the XBWL, meaning they can NEVER have another contract here!
Phantom Lord: DEAL!
Johnny Macaroni: Then sign the papers on your way out the door, because with the power that I do have left right here, I AM SUSPENDING THE EMPIRE OF DAMAGE FOR 24 HOURS!
:: The Empire of Damage begins to go berserk as they hear Johnny Macaroni's announcement, but the fans go wild.. They are cheering the man they were just booing... Johnny Macaroni has announced that he will sacrifice for them.. Everything he has ever wanted and dreamed for.. He will put it on the line for the XBWL fans... To get rid of the Empire of Damage... This they respect.... ::
Johnny Macaroni: NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF MY RING!!! ANYONE WHO'S STILL IN THERE IN FIVE MINUTES WILL BE FIRED!!!
:: The Empire of Damage leave the ring, choosing to fight their battles tomorrow night... They walk down the aisle and file past Johnny Macaroni who stares at them. Carnage stops in front of Johnny Macaroni and puts the "Carnage" mask back on and pushes Macaroni with his blood soaked bat. As they leave, security and the medical staff, with trainers in tow, rush to the ring and free Matt Austin. They load him on a stretcher and take him out of the arena as well.... The camera's flash to the back where The Beast and Hawk Henshaw have already been loaded into ambulances. As Johnny Macaroni walks backstage, he just shakes his head as The Beast, Matt Austin and Hawk Henshaw all leave in ambulances and the Empire of Damage all leave in a limo that reads "Carnage Inc" on the license plate. ::
Doc: I don't even know what to say about what just happened...
Johnny: What does this mean? Carnage is behind Empire of Damage? Carnage is leading the Empire?
Doc: I don't know...
Johnny: Johnny Macaroni was being bribed.. Carnage paid off the Empire.. The Empire bribed Macaroni.. I'm so shocked...
Doc: I'm in total shock.. This was supposed to be a fun night... It's starting to not be fun... There's to many agendas here.. To much was never finished... I cannot handle this.
Johnny: It'll be ok Doc... We shouldn't have expected anything less from the XBWL.
Doc: They're mopping up the blood. They're cleaning the ring. Now we have more matches to get to. This is crazy.
:: The scene fades to the backstage area where Flyguy is laying on a bench. He has his ribs taped up. A few moments later Claw walks in. Flyguy sits up and groans as Claw comes in. ::
Claw: You ok bro?
Flyguy: Man... I'm going to KILL Brandon Thornton.. But other than that, it just looks like I ruptured a couple of ulcers I've had and that was causing me to rapidly spit up the blood.
Claw: Good to hear man... Really good to hear. Hey... I've got DDT up next...
Flyguy: ....
Claw: Do you mind if I wear the belt?
Flyguy: You serious?
Claw: It means a whole lot to me bro...
Flyguy: Well then wear it man... Wear that bitch with pride...
:: Claw shakes his head yes and turns to walk out of the locker room. ::
Flyguy: Hey...
:: Claw turns back around. ::
Flyguy: Good Luck...
:: Claw smiles and walks away... A much different look on his face than earlier... Flyguy and Claw appear to be the same friends that they used to be long ago. Soon it fades back to Johnny and Doc sitting at the announcer booth. ::
Doc: It looks like it's time for the next match... They have cleaned the ring.
Johnny: And I bet the next match is gonna fill it right back up!
:: "Off Da Wall" by Redman and Eminem blasts into the XBWL arena and a man who was once banned from the XBWL for his actions walks back into the XBWL Arena. The fans boo as the XBWL Tron flashes images of "GoDNocker" the night that the "Dangerous" Dave Taylor's group, The Guardians of Destiny invaded the XBWL and took apart nearly every superstar in the building. "Dangerous" Dave Taylor steps out into arena and walks down the aisle. The fans boo this man that they have hated for so long. He is dressed in his traditional attire. DDT walks down the aisle, and when he gets to the ring he rolls inside and climbs up on the ropes berating the fans. They boo him as he does. ::
Doc: This man is very hated in the XBWL... Although I have heard that in some arena's he's well loved.
Johnny: The XBWL fans will never forgive what happened... They will never forget.
Doc: Well this is one man we both hate, but we have to give him his fair share.. He was once one of the greatest competitors in this league.
Johnny: Was... Or Wasn't.. What he did was unforgivable. And Claw is going to answer for the XBWL on this one.
:: "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N Roses plays into the XBWL Arena and the fans come to their feet. Their attitude immediatly changes and moves to a happier atmosphere. The XBWL Tron shows images of Claw putting various superstars through tables!! It shows him winning the XBWL Hardcore Title and the XBWL World Heavyweight Title! Claw hops through the curtains and he has with him the Barbed Wire Bat of his best friend and mentor, Flyguy!! Claw is wearing around his waist the EVCW United States Heavyweight Championship, a belt that he has held for a long time... A belt that he lost to and won back from Flyguy in the same night. Claw slaps hands with the fans all the way down the ramp as DDT paces in the ring. Claw drops the bat at ringside and rolls into the ring. He hops on the top turnbuckle and stands up motioning for the fans to chant... They blow the roof off with CLAW, CLAW, CLAW!!! Claw shows his excitement and drops to the mat. The referee checks him and then he checks DDT. Claw drops the EVCW US title on the ring apron. ::
Doc: I hope Claw reminds DDT what the XBWL is all about.
Johnny: Well that bat was a huge benefit for Flyguy.. I'm sure it'll serve Claw the same way!
Doc: And Claw has worn his United States title from the EVCW.
Johnny: Yeah.. Well I can't really say much about that.. EVCW isn't exactly XBWL calibre. You wouldn't catch someone like the Klan there.
Doc: How little you know...
:: Claw and DDT circle each other in the ring. Finally they lock up quickly and Claw tries to sling DDT to the ropes, but DDT stops and fires a back kick on Claw!

Claw fights desperately to get free, but DDT holds him tight. Claw gets to his knees and starts trying to free his head, but DDT's scissorhold does not release! Claw is weakening!! DDT continues to squeeze his legs together, cutting off the blood to Claw's head and eventually Claw drops down to the mat! DDT lets go and rolls over. He pulls Claw's face up and stands up, pulling Claw's head up as he does! Claw doesn't move as DDT hoists him up and drives him into the center of the ring with a snap powerbomb!! DDT pulls him up again... Snap Powerbomb!!! Claw hits the mat again!! Claw groans as DDT pulls him up again!! SNAP POWERBOMB AGAIN!! DDT nails Claw again with the Snap Powerbomb!! ::
Doc: I cannot believe this.. FOUR POWERBOMBS IN A ROW!
Johnny: Nobody ever said DDT was a bad wrestler... He's just not a very smart person when it comes to business.
Doc: Well I am afraid that DDT may become an odds on favorite here in the match!
:: DDT walks over to where Claw is laying. DDT pulls Claw up and sling him through the ropes to the floor. DDT climbs to the top rope and flies off the top rope with a body splash that connects with the unconsious Claw on the floor!! DDT lays for a moment, regaining his strength before standing up and going under the ring. DDT pulls out a table and sets it up. He pulls Claw over to the table and lays him on top of it. DDT climbs back on the apron and then back to the top rope again. DDT flies off the top rope with a shooting star press and slams Claw through the table!! DDT stands up and raises his hands for glory, but the fans only boo him. DDT stops for a moment, realizing he is in the XBWL and that he is not a very popular man here. He drops down and goes under the ring again, this time pulling out a roll of barbed wire!! DDT holds the barbed wire roll up and the fans boo!! DDT doesn't seem to care though, he walks over to where Claw is laying!! DDT drops down and sticks the barbed wire up to the head of Claw!! With one swift vicious movement, DDT manages to cut the face of Claw open!! DDT raises the barbed wire and slams it down several times into the face of Claw!! Claw comes to and manages to block the last attempt and pushes DDT off!! Claw stands up, wiping the blood from his eyes as DDT charges with the roll of barbed wire aimed at Claw's head!! Claw sees him coming from the corner of his eye and ducks!! DDT overshoots Claw and then turns around to hit him again, but Claw fires with a standing dropkick that shoves the barbed wire roll into the chest of DDT and sends DDT backwards into the railing!! DDT pulls the spikes from his chest and blood begins to come from several holes. DDT drops the roll of barbed wire and rushes forward, attacking Claw!!

The piece of wood goes into his flesh and DDT falls down holding his leg! Claw walks over to where the roll of barbed wire is laying and DDT holds his leg and starts pulling the piece of wood out of his leg. ::
Doc: Claw is really fighting back.. This isn't even a wrestling match.. This is just a fight!
Johnny: As long as DDT gets driven out of the XBWL, then I don't care!!
:: Claw walks over with the roll of barbed wire and then spikes it down, right into the head of DDT! The roll of barbed wire forms a barbed wire crown for the "Dangerous" one and Claw grinds it down as DDT screams, fighting back trying to get Claw to let him go! DDT finally manages to get a boot to connect and cause Claw to loosen his grip.. DDT pulls the crown of barbed wire off of his head, screaming as he does.

Claw reaches down and rips DDT from the roll of barbed wire again!! Claw goes to lift DDT again, but DDT jerks away and starts backing up, holding his back. Claw steps over the barbed wire, but DDT kicks him square in the groin, causing Claw to fall to his knees!! DDT picks up the chair and nearly breaks it in half over the head of Claw, and leaves it there as Claw falls forward with it still around his neck, the bottom of the chair completely broken out and laying against the side of his head!

DDT pulls Claw up and Claw manages to get the chair off his neck before DDT hits him with a viscious clothesline that sends him back down! DDT grabs the roll of barbed wire and tosses it into the ring!! ::
Doc: DDT is really a dangerous man.. This is not something we should be allowing!

The fans cheer as Claw swings the bat and connects with the side of the head of Dangerous Dave Taylor!!! Claw drops the bat on the mat and grabs DDT.... TERROR!!!!!!! Claw executes the Terror into the bat and then rolls DDT over and goes for the cover!! ONE!!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!! THR- NO!!!!!! DDT kicks out!! Claw rolls over and lays for a moment before trying to stand up. He is hurting from the damage he's substained so far, but he is trying to fight it off.

DDT fires away two more barbed wire punches before grinding the barbed wire covered forearm into the nose of Claw!! DDT picks up Claw and drives him with a side suplex into the barbed wire bat!! DDT pulls Claw up and drags him to the corner. DDT positions Claw in the corner and then grabs a couple pieces of the barbed wire and starts to secure Claw! ::
Doc: Oh no.. This is going to be another restrained beating like what happened to Matt Austin!!

He pulls out a plastic container and walks over to where Claw is tied up. DDT tosses the barbed wire bat out of the ring and then we can clearly see that the item in DDT's hand is fish hooks!!! DDT starts from the top and begins jabbing these fish hooks into the meat on the chest of Claw!! Claw comes to and begins to yell as DDT stabs him over and over!! DDT manages to get eight hooks into the chest of Claw and he grabs the rolls of fishing line on them!! ::
Doc: OH GOD!! This is one of the reasons he was banned!!
Johnny: I know he's not going to repeat this!!
:: DDT walks back, holding the line and starts to tug on them!! Claw screams and DDT suddenly jerks the first one free, tearing the flesh of Claw open as he does!! Claw screams and blood begins to pour from the wound on his chest!! Suddenly we see a form coming into the ring!! IT'S LEGACY!!! DDT doesn't even realize he's there, but Legacy walks up behind him with the barbed wire bat in hand!! DDT goes to pull another one and Legacy lines the bat up with the back of his head and takes a mighty swing!!! DDT's head is busted open from the barbed wire and DDT collapses in the ring!!! Legacy walks over and releases Claw!! ::
Doc: It's a good thing that DDT is alone tonight...
Johnny: I think that Claw should have won this one fair... I don't like this... It won't be over this way...
:: The EVCW World Heavyweight Champion releases the EVCW United States Heavyweight Champion and Legacy drops Claw across DDT!! Suddenly there is a commotion and Thunder, Outlaw, and Sleep Stalker all come running out!! ::
Doc: OH NO! All the Guardians of Destiny are here!!!
Johnny: I cannot believe this.. NOT AGAIN!!!
:: The referee counts.. ONE!!!!!!!!! TWO!!!!!!!!!!! THREE!!!!!!!!!! Just as he hits the mat for the three count, the Guardians all storm the ring. Claw wins the match, but Thunder, Outlaw and Sleep Stalker all enter the ring and Legacy is backed into a corner!! Legacy swings the bat and smashes it into the face of Outlaw, but Sleep Stalker kicks him in the knee and Thunder drives his knee into his midsection!! Claw and DDT lay knocked out in the ring! Outlaw stands back up, pissed off from the shot with the bat!! The Guardians all attack Legacy and stomp on him, driving him to the mat!! Thunder exits the ring and gets a chair!! Outlaw and Sleep Stalker lift Legacy up and slam him down with a double powerbomb onto the bat and Legacy's back is ripped open! ::
Doc: NOT AGAIN NO! SOMEONE HELP HIM!
Johnny: This is bullshit... Fucking bullshit...
:: Thunder comes back into the ring and sticks Legacy's leg into the chair!! Legacy holds his back, where the bat has cut him!! Thunder drops down and holds his leg and Outlaw falls on him to keep him still!! The huge Sleep Stalker climbs up to the top rope and comes off, landing on the chair!!!!!!!!!! A sick crack is heard and the Guardians stand up!! Legacy screams and reaches down for his knee!! DDT begins to stand up and the Guardians walk over to Claw!! Suddenly from the back... Awesome Australian!! Lizzard!! Superslam Ted Wilder!! ::
Doc: Well there's some reinforcements, and I hope it's not too late!!
Johnny: No kidding!
:: The crowd comes alive as AA, Lizzard and Superslam all rush to the ring!!! Outlaw, Thunder and Sleep Stalker meet the trio head on and Armageddon begins to brawl with them!! AA pairs off with Outlaw!! Superslam with Sleep Stalker and Lizzard with Thunder... The fight ends up on the floor!! ::
Doc: I'm not sure Superslam needs to be out here again.. He was in pretty bad shape earlier.. Hell, all of these guys have been involved with a fight with the Klan tonight...
:: AA slings Outlaw into the railing and Outlaw hits hard! AA leaps on him and starts slamming his head!! Lizzard and Thunder go over the rail and end up brawling into the crowd!! The huge Sleep Stalker and Superslam tie up and Superslam is out matched after only a few moments. Sleep Stalker nails him with the Stalker Effect into the concrete floor and then goes over and gets a chair!! Sleep Stalker puts the chair around the neck of "Superslam" Ted Wilder... In the ring, DDT has come to and is trying to focus on what is going on. Claw is also standing up.. Neither of them know that the match is over!! DDT slings Claw into the ropes and nails him with a hip toss!! Legacy is pulling himself out of the ring and holding his knee. Several trainers have come down and are helping him to the back.. His leg is in horrible shape!!! Legacy looks up and he notices Sleep Stalker on the top rope.. Legacy looks with interest as Sleep Stalker flies with a flying body splash!!! A loud crack is heard as Sleep Stalker slams into the chair that is locked around the neck of Superslam!! ::
Doc: OH GOD NO!! I THINK HE JUST BROKE SUPERSLAM'S NECK!!!
Johnny: Please God... Please God No!!!
:: Awesome Australian stops attacking Outlaw and rushes to the side of Ted Wilder who is laying with blood coming out his nose.. His neck is twisted in an unnatural way... ::
Doc: Fans... Oh my God...
:: Claw rushes to the side of the ropes and DDT takes the opportunity to roll him up with a school boy, but he doesn't understand why the referee isn't counting. The referee hops out of the ring. Legacy stops in his tracks and rushes back, as best he can... His leg nearly giving way as he collapses beside Superslam!!! Awesome Australian and Legacy look at each other in horror!!! ::
Johnny: What have these mother fuckers done...
:: Lizzard is laying in a pool of blood in the second row and this causes Thunder to come back.. Sleep Stalker stands up laughing but Thunder, Outlaw and Dave Taylor are not laughing.. They all have a somber look on their face as they realize what has just happened... Medics rush to the ringside with a stretcher and Johnny Macaroni comes walking out as well, no music.. Just he himself walking out. He gets to the ringside and grabs a microphone... ::
Doc: Looks like the boss is here...
Johnny: Well he's a little late now isn't he?
Johnny Macaroni: Outlaw, Sleep Stalker, Thunder and DDT... We fired you from the XBWL once before and I let you come back tonight.. If I ever see ANY of you again, I swear to God as my witness, I will have you ALL arrested for whatever charges I can bring against you from your stay here! NOW GET THE HELL OUT OF MY BUILDING!!!
:: Medics begin loading Superslam Ted Wilder on a stretcher... AA goes over and pulls Lizzard back over the guardrail.. He explains what has happened and Lizzard rushes to the side of his friend. Sleep Stalker tries talking to his friends... but Thunder, Outlaw and Dave Taylor are in shock... They just start slowly walking out of the building as Sleep Stalker tries to explain what he did... Sleep Stalker seems to be proud of himself, but the other members of the Guardians of Destiny are as shocked as the fans at ringside. They exit to the backstage area. ::
Doc: I don't think Sleep Stalker had ANY idea what the hell he just did...
Johnny Macaroni: He seemed PROUD of it!! At least the others had sense!!
:: AA, Lizzard, Legacy and Claw all walk with the stretcher to the back as they begin to clean up the mess. The camera follows them all the way to the back where many XBWL Superstars are. They all look on, unsure of what is going to happen. The camera follows to the ambulance.. Johnny Macaroni comes up as Superslam is being loaded. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Listen.. AA.. Legacy.. I know you guys got matches tonight.. Legacy you're knee is probably not up for a match and I know that emotionally neither of you are going to be able to do this.. I'll just let Jack Diamond face off against Chris Scarlet and we'll just call it at that. I understand you guys need to go with Ted.
:: AA and Legacy look at Johnny Macaroni... Then Lizzard breaks in. ::
Lizzard: NO FUCKING WAY!! Legacy... How's that knee?
Legacy: I think it might be broken... I don't know.. It feels broken, but I can't even really think about it... I have to go to the hospital with Ted.
Lizzard: Like hell you do! What would he tell you to do? You know he would tell you to go out there and finish the job! How many times have you guys faced serious injury?
Legacy: You're right man... But this is different...
Johnny Macaroni: I agree.. Let's just-
Awesome Australian: FUCK YOU MACARONI! I've had enough of your bullshit. What the hell do you think you're doing? We have watched half the roster be taken nearly to the break of death... Broken bones... Shattered skulls and now a man's life could be over!! I'm not going to play your fucking game no more.. I'm going out there and I'm going to wrestle Chris Scarlet tonight.. That's because it's what Ted Wilder would want me to do... But Legacy.. If you're leg is broken then you have no business fighting Jack Diamond tonight.. Just bow out and go take care of Ted.
Legacy: Ok man...
:: Legacy shakes his head yes and starts to pull himself into the ambulance. ::
Lizzard: NO! I can go to the hospital with Ted.. If you don't think you can wrestle then don't.. But don't do it for him.. Because tomorrow when he wakes up, he's going to have your head... You know I'm telling you the truth.. He groomed you to be his successor after the WWFW for a reason!
Legacy: Forget that... I need to get my knee looked at... I'm going with him.
Lizzard: If it was for YOU, would you be leaving... Or are you just trying to find a reason to go? I'll keep you updated.. I promise.. Just take care of Jack Diamond and lets make sure we bring that title home so we can hang it on Ted's bed at the hospital.
:: Legacy looks in the ambulance and then to AA... Legacy pats Lizzard on the back. ::
Legacy: Take care of him man...
:: Lizzard smiles and nods and then hops in the ambulance.. It speeds away, leaving Legacy and AA standing in the backstage area. Legacy goes to walk and his leg gives out.. He crashes to the ground and the medics rush over. ::
Legacy: I'm OK! Leave me alone... My match is next!
:: Johnny Macaroni and AA help Legacy to his feet and he slowly walks out of the backstage area, towards the entry. ::
AA: If anything else happens here tonight Macaroni.. I'm going to hold YOU responsible!
:: AA grabs Macaroni by his shirt and pushes him back. Johnny Macaroni shakes it off as he looks around at all the XBWL Superstars who are gathered around watching the spectacle. ::
Doc: I really hope that "Superslam" Ted Wilder is ok...
Johnny: Don't we all!
:: "Symphony of Destruction" by Megadeth blares into the XBWL arena and Legacy half walks, half limps out into the arena. The fans cheer him, but they aren't even sure they want to cheer anymore. He gets a great reception, but he knows the fans are still thinking about "Superslam" and what has happened. The XBWL Tron flashes to show all of Legacy's five XBWL World Heavyweight Title wins. Legacy manages to make it to the ring, but he simply rolls in instead of trying to go over or through the ropes. He is obviously in pain! ::
Doc: He shouldn't be competing.. I don't think his knee is up to it..
Johnny: Well Jack Diamond certainly won't be cutting him any slack!
:: "Cocky" By Kid Rock plays and "Sexy Boy" Jack Diamond walks out into the XBWL Arena. The fans begin to boo him as he walks out, flexing his muscles and acting very arrogant. He walks down the aisle as his championship victory is shown on the XBWL Tron... The XBWL Tron shows Jack Diamond capturing the Hardcore title as well, holding it in the ring, covered in blood. Jack Diamond gets to the ringside area and stand staring at Legacy who is trying hard just to stand up. Jack Diamond enters the ring and is checked by the referee. The referee checks out Legacy as well and rings the bell. ::
Doc: I wonder if he really can back it up?
Johnny: I don't think he's going to have much of a problem here against Legacy... Legacy is injured.
:: Jack Diamond and Legacy walk towards each other as the bell is sounded. Legacy and Jack Diamond lock up and then Jack Diamond pushes Legacy back... He stomps the knee of Legacy and Legacy goes down!! Jack Diamond stomps it again and then Jack Diamond locks Legacy in the Jack Off!!!! The fans are booing!!! The referee rushes around the check on Legacy.... LEGACY TAPS OUT!!! JACK DIAMOND WINS!!! ::
Doc: Jesus.. That leg must really be broken.
Johnny: Yeah.. It's snapped.. And it's just getting worse.. No way he wouldn't have tapped otherwise.
:: Jack Diamond lets go and stands up, raising his arms in victory. ::
Doc: I'm getting word that that match was exactly 11 seconds.. That could very well be the quickest match in the history of the XBWL!
Johnny: Legacy didn't really have a choice.
:: Jack Diamond exits the ring and the paramedics rush down to help Legacy to the back. He is still holding his knee as they pull him out of the ring and help him to the back. ::
Doc: I knew this was a horrible idea... It's all because of the Guardians of Destiny!
Johnny: Well at least Macaroni did the right thing... For once...
:: Jack Diamond walks to the back and Legacy is also taken to the back as Jack Diamond is announced the winner of the match. Suddenly "Hail To The Chief" plays and Johnny Macaroni walks from the back. He comes down to the ring and enters it. He has a microphone in hand and a somber look on his face. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Fans.. I would just like to thank you first of all for coming back for the XBWL Memorial Show... As you know, this is going to be a three day event. Tonight is the first round. Now tomorrow we are going to have autograph sessions, and we are going to have a huge party here in the arena for everyone who purched a three day advance ticket, so be sure you come back tomorrow and you'll get to mingle with some of the XBWL greats!
:: The fans cheer for Macaroni. ::
Johnny Macaroni: Now, I would also like to apologize for what you have witnessed tonight. It has really been the reunion show of a lifetime, and I thought this would just be something fun for all the boys to do. I was mistaken... There was so much bad blood in the XBWL... So many unfinished fueds... So many people who thought they would never get to lay their hands on the one person they hated again. I made some mistakes here tonight... I should not have allowed the Guardians of Destiny or Mean Mark Mease to come back. I should have honored the bans that were put upon them and assumed that the people who led the XBWL during that time knew what they were doing. But, that is a mistake that I have to live with.
:: The fans cheer for him, out of respect... Knowing he has done his best with the circumstances he was given. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I really hate bringing you guys bad news.. I really do, but I do have one more piece. It seems that "The Ring Troll" DeAndre Coleman's flight from Seattle was delayed due to the storms they're having there. In fact, the first scheduled flight they are going to have is going to be the middle of tomorrow. Now I have considered many options here. Mad Jester is supposed to face Dee tonight and I really wasn't sure what to do with this. From what I have just seen, I should have put him against Jack Diamond, but that wouldn't really be fair to Diamond. The other alternative I have considered was letting Dee wrestle tomorrow, but Kronos quickly broke out the legel documents on that to show me I can't force him to wrestle two times unless I am forcing EVERYONE to wrestle twice tomorrow. So the only choice I have now is to give the Mad Jester a default win DeAndre Coleman. I tried to push this match as far into the evening as I could, but the only match left here tonight is the Mad Jester/Coleman match and the Main Event. So that leaves us with the Main Event and an interesting question regarding the events that have unfolded tonight. I'm sure you have all noticed the huge cell hanging above the ring tonight.
:: Johnny Macaroni points up and the fans cheer. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I didn't really want to have to bring it to this, but I guess I have to. I put that cell up there for the main event on Sunday, but I guess I'm just going to have to have it lowered down now. I want NO INTERFERANCE in the next match, and this is how I am going to make sure it happens that way! Fans, I'll see you all tomorrow.. Enjoy the main event!
:: Johnny Macaroni drops the mic and the fans cheer as he steps out of the ring. The huge cell comes down from the ceiling and surrounds the ringside area, almost reaching to the guardrail. Johnny Macaroni waves to the fans as he gets to the top of the ramp and then turns around. ::
Johnny Macaroni: I scoured the XBWL archives... Looking for a man who would be a fair referee. I planned to use him in the Main Event of Sunday's show as well, but since there has been so much bad blood and so much injury tonight. I am going to use him for this match as well. I wanted a man who was touch, but fair... I wanted a man who would not be bought off... I wanted a man who would call it down the middle.. And I found him... XBWL Fans.. You're guest Referee for the night... MAXIMUM!!
:: "Chickenhuntin'" by ICP plays into the XBWL Arena and Maximum walks out onto the ramp. He looks around as the fans begin to cheer for the former XBWL Tag Team Champion. Maximum starts to walk down the aisle and slaps hands with the fans as he does. He is wearing a referee shirt, and his old wrestling tights. He enters the cage and checks the ropes, turnbuckles and cage before giving the thumbs up for the introduction of the competiors. Johnny Macaroni turns and walks to the back. ::
Doc: Well I believe this man will be fair.. He's always had outstanding integrity.
Johnny: Well as long as he doesn't get in the way of Klan he'll keep it!
Doc: I don't thinkt he Klan will be involved in this one. It's a CELL!
Johnny: The Klan will have a plan... There's no way that they don't! Chris Scarlet is going to win this one!
:: "Now I Know Why You Hate Me", the official Klan Music plays over the XBWL Arena and Chris Scarlet walks out. He is all alone as he starts down the ramp. The fans boo and jeer him as he gives them an arrogant stare. He walks down to the cage and then begins to feel of it and finally walks in the door. On the XBWL Tron we see many great moments in his illustrious XBWL career. He rolls into the ring and Maximum immediatly goes over and begins to check him out and make sure that he doesn't have anything with him. Once Maximum is satisfied, he allows Chris Scarlet to continue in the ring and flex for the crowd before his music settles down. ::
Johnny: Here's the Man!
Doc: He's a great competitor.. There's no doubt about that.
:: "Glory Days" by Bruce Springsteen blares into the arena and Awesome Australian walks out! The XBWL Tron shows Awesome Australian's magnificent career.. His days defending the XBWL from the WWFW, the wars against the Kronos Klan and even his early days with Belgian Sensation... Clips from the Alliance are shown as well as International Army's first tag team match. The fans come to their feet showing their respect as he comes down the aisle. He shakes hands with alot of the fans at the ringside area, looking up at the cage. The fans are cheering and giving him a standing ovation.. After everything this man has been through tonight, he is still out here fighting! He peels off his Armageddon T-Shirt and throws it into he fans. AA opens the door of the cage and walks in. Once inside he climbs into the ring and Maximum checks him out to make sure he isn't carrying anything illegal. AA submits to the search and then walks to his corner. ::
Doc: Well it looks like it's finally time for the Main Event.
Johnny: And it's only fitting that it contains the Kronos Klan!
