We open up- LIVE- in- Pasadena, California.. - at- the Rose Bowl-- for this - special--event-
"One Night Only.."
XTREME MANIA: DECADE
The scene picks up backstage where Flo Stanley is standing by with the #1 contender, Jon Hampton.
Flo Stanley: Thank you! I'm Flo Stanley, and this is the man who will be taking on Jesse Jones in just a few moments.. in the first ever Hell in a Cell, IRONMAN match... but, that's not all--
"The Chosen One" Jon Hampton: Lets get one thing clear Flo. The stipulations don't matter. I don't care if there is a Special Enforcer or not. There's a Cell out there that's going to make sure that nobody escapes, and nobody gets in! And you see, that's exactly how I want it. A man like Jesse Jones doesn't realize who he's dealing with. I am "The Ultimate One", I am Jon "THE MAN" Hampton .. and I am certainly "The Chosen One".
Fans could be heard boo'ing inside the Rose Bowl Stadium.
"The Chosen One" Jon Hampton: So, we could stand up here all day, and discuss the possiblities. But why wait? It's time to find out if "The Mad Dogg" has what it takes to be the XWF World Champion...
Jon Hampton brushes past Flo Stanley, and heads to the ring. The titan-tron then cuts to an image of Bob Levy backstage with the XWF World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones.
Bob Levy: I'm Bob Levy, and I'm standing beside current Xtreme Wrestling Federation World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones himself. Now, tonight there's a lot at stake, and there's been some added stipulations. How do you feel about your opponent for this 'Xtreme Mania: Decade' Main Event, and how do you feel about all the darn stipulations??
"The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones: Well let me tell you something Mean Gean!! The XWF has been waiting for someone to run wild.. for quite some time, and if you notice, I've been taking my vitams, I've been practicing on my golf swing, but mostly importantly-- I've made the cut. So here I am! With this XWF World Championship, right where it belongs.
The camera zooms out more to show the XWF World Championship belt slung over Jesse Jones' shoulder.
Bob Levy: Yes, but what about your opponent, and these added stipulations. You have to have a real opinion on all of this. We're just seconds away from this historic Main Event, on the biggest stage of them all...
"The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones: Why do people say that? There's no stage. There's a ring. There's no stage. There's no music. Well, there's theme music. But, that's only for a little bit, and then we get in the ring- and that's where we do battle. It's more like Gladiators, and I'm talking the ol' fashion kind.. you know, the type that might have battled in the old roman times, and it's no coincidence we're here LIVE at the Rose Bowl Coliseum.
The fans could be heard going MAD inside the arena.
"The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones: Back to what you were saying. My opponent. Jon Hampton. He's Dog Food. I mean, what more could I say? He's Purina Puppy Chow.... ... oh yeah, he's Kibble n' Bits..... .. he's not Beggin Strips.. because, Beggin Strips are too good to refer them to Jon Hampton. No, rather-- he's more like Dad's Trail Mix, or Scraps from off the kids dinner plate. He is just an ol' bone for me to chew on for a little while, and then bury after I'm finished. That's all he is, and as for the man who's the Special Enforcer,.. just do your job, and stay out of the way. Because, these people came here to see one thing. Well, two things maybe.... alright, possibly 3 things. They came here to see the "I Quit" Match, ... they came here to watch the "Hall of Fame" Ceremony, and they've all been waiting patiently to witness Jon Hampton step in that Hell in a Cell with me for 60 minutes, and at the end... find out what it truly means when I say .. "YOU JUST GOT MAD DOGGED!!!"
The fans were eating this segment up, and they loved every second of what Jesse Jones had to say. They chanted his catchphrase along with him, and they were just awaiting his arrival to the ring.
That's up next!
New commentators come out to take over-- James Shaw, and Alex "Cool" Beans.
James Shaw is a pudgier guy with a bad sense of taste, and Alex "Cool" Beans is just what his name represents. He tries to act better than everybody else, and pretends to know more than everyone. He is a little on the heavier side himself, and never wears a suit. Both make their way down to boo's from the XWF crowd who is tired of seeing the commentators being swapped. After they settle in then a familiar theme music begins playing over the speakers.
KAMAKAZEE KEN comes out with SAM HILL, and Number 8 walks up on crutches (after being on the wheelchair all night)... - 3 MEN- from different- eras... come out to congradulate Carlos Shotgun, and Christian Falkenyork- on a match- well done, and a terrific- XWF- feud.. one of the best- in the past decade... they- also have a - 10 ring- bell salute.. to honor- FRAN's father. . . . . . . . . . ...rest in peace .... after a few seconds of mourning... then-- JOEY KINCAID- cuts them off.
Joey Kincaid arrives on the scene-
He makes his way down the ramp, and in to the ring, snatching the microphone off of Number 8's hand, and tells him to pipe down. Before addressing the XWF crowd, and the XWF legends.
Joey Kincaid: "I should've been involved in tonight's events..... but nobody cared to offer me a contract..."
That's all he says as he drops the microphone, and exits the ring. The XWF fans seem confused by that remark, and nobody knows how to react, including the new commentating team.
Alex "Cool" Beans: What was that all about Shaw?
James Shaw: Beats me Beans! The kid is salty- after he ruined the XWF Title.."
After that fiasco is over. Lilian Garcia is allowed to stay as Ring-Announcer, and she gets in the ring for the official call.
Lilian Garcia: "Ladies, and Gentleman WELCOME to Xtreme Mania: Decade. It has been nearly 10 years in the making but here we are! Tonight the XWF World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones will be defending his XWF World Title against "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton in a Hell in a Cell, IRONMAN Match, with a new Special Guest Ring Enforcer."
The XWF crowd is buzzing. Because, a lot of these stipulations were added closer to the event taking place, and no one was expecting a Special Enforcer. But, after a few moments of the crowd settling down then Lilian announces the participants.
Lilian Garcia: First, the challenger, "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton!!
Jon Hampton comes out to his theme music and the pyro-technics, and the crowd doesn't like it one bit. They give Hampton a ton of heat as he makes his way out from behind the curtains. He seems to be getting more heat than anyone else was able to generate throughout the night.
James Shaw: The XWF fans just really appear to hate this guy.
After he gets down the ramp, and examines the cell, he steps inside it, and waits in the middle of the ring. While Lilian announces this next man.
Lilian Garcia: And his opponent, .. he is the XWF Heavyweight World Champion, and he is "The Mad Dogg"... Jesse .. JONES!!!
The XWF crowd marks out hard for Jesse Jones, and a lot of die hard "Mad Dogg" fans start barking, and howling throughout the Rose Bowl Stadium. The XWF World Champion comes out to a great ovation from the fans, and he marches down the ramp with the XWF World Championship Belt in hand. He raises the belt high in the air for the XWF fans to see, and they all love it! "The Mad Dogg" lets out a genuine smile as he glances up at the cell, and steps inside. The cell door is closed behind him as he gets in the ring, and hands the belt to the official. The referee raises the XWF World Title in between both superstars, and makes sure the fans know what's at stake.
Alex "Cool" Beans: My money's on Mayweather...
James Shaw: You're an idiot.
Just as those two are jawing in the center of the XWF ring. Lilian Garcia announces the next name from outside the cell, comfortable in her own seat.
Lilian Garcia: And the Special Guest Ring Enforcer. Who is sorry he couldn't make it for the Hall of Fame Ceremony.. but, he wanted it to be a huge surprise.... he is a former XWF World Champion, and a 2008 XWF Hall of Fame inductee, .. he is the legend known as 9 L P
Those 3 letters alone send the XWF crowd in to a frenzy.
James Shaw: 9LP? Are you kidding me?
Alex "Cool" Beans: Why wasn't he at the Hall of Fame ceremony again??
James Shaw: To surprise cool people like you Beans...
Alex "Cool" Beans: I guess so,
The XWF crowd is in an uproar as 9LP's theme music begins playing over the loud speakers, and out from the curtains appears 9LP himself. The XWF fans waving their hands, in bowing-fashion, and out of respect for the former XWF World Champion, and Hall of Fame legend.
He makes his way down the ramp, almost looking in wrestling-shape, and he has a nasty grin on his face. He stands on the outside of the Hell in a Cell, and he nods for the official to ring the bell.
XWF World Champion- "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones vs. "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton - Hell in a Cell, IRONMAN match, with Special Enforcer, 9LP -- for the XWF Heavyweight World Championship -
The 60-minute timer is set, and the countdown begins....

It's mostly back, and fourth. It starts off with both men locking up in the center of the ring, and Hampton winning the early battle of strength. A lot of wear down moves, and counters. Jesse Jones manages to take control for a little while. But, Hampton manages to gain the upperhand again.
Jones - 0 Hampton - 0
10:01 to the 20:00 mark - -
"The Chosen One" Jon Hampton begins working "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones over, and the crowd isn't liking it. Hampton stays on top of the match for most of the next 10 minutes. Jones manages to counter a few spots, and by the end of 20 minutes, the XWF World Champion is wearing down the #1 contender with a Sleeperhold in the middle of the ring.
Jones - 0 Hampton - 0
20:01 to the 30:00 mark - -
Jones continues wearing Hampton down, and the fans are enjoying the action now. As the current XWF World Champion stays in control, and gets a few near-falls. But, still can not pick up that first victory. Hampton catches Jones off guard momentarily, and he almost scores a near-fall. But, he's unable to pick up a 3-count. After the half-way point, there still hasn't been a single victory by pin-fall, or submission. Even after Jesse Jones drilled Jon Hampton with a Twist-of-Fate (at the 27:32 mark), but Hampton somehow managed to get a foot on the rope.
Jones - 0 Hampton - 0
30:01 to the 40:00 mark - -
As Hampton works Jones over for a little while, Jones manages to counter a brilliant maneuver, and the gain the full advantage in the matchup. However, a mishap by Jones sends him flying face first in to the Hell in a Cell, and manages to rip his face up a bit. There is blood smeared all over The Mad Dogg's forehead. As Hampton taunts him, and tortures him further, grading his face along the bottom of the cell. The crowd gives The Chosen One a lot of heat. But, still neither man could pick up a pin-fall, or submission.
Jones - 0 Hampton - 0
40:01 to the 50:00 mark - -
After 40 minutes both men are still unable to pick up a single victory in this 60-minute, Hell in a Cell, IRONMAN Match. The fans are growing anxious, as Hampton stays in control of this match, and almost puts the Champion away with a few near-falls, and a deadly Boston Crap. But, nothing seems to be working. Even when Jones bounces Hampton face-first off the cell, and can't pick up the victory. Finally, with just 10 minutes to go, Jones goes for a Swanton Bomb, and misses his target! The fans rise to their feet (at the 49:24 mark), as Hampton places an arm on Jones' chest, and picks up the 1, 2, 3! Nobody could seem to believe it, and Hampton stalks his prey for a moment, before deciding to step away, and try to avoid the Champion as long as he can. However, at this point in the match "The Messiah of Xtreme" HHH starts walking out, and he is standing around the Hell in a Cell. Then Mars starts walking down towards the ring, and he starts surrounding the Hell in a Cell. Everybody seems confused, including the Special Enforcer 9LP, who has to keep his eyes on both men. While the XWF World Championship match is going on in the ring, inside that Hell in a Cell.
Jones - 0 Hampton - 1
50:01 to the 60:00 mark - -
With 10 minutes to go, and "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton up 1-0, it is now the XWF Heavyweight World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones who is struggling to find an answer. He needs to pick up a victory by pin-fall, or submission in order to tie this up. But, with 6 minutes to go (at the 54:00) Jesse Jones finally goes for the Mad Dogg submission hold, a Rear-naked choke hold, he places Jon Hampton in it, and tries to tie it up. But, Jon Hampton manages to get to the ropes in time. Jesse refuses to let go, but the referee tries pulling him off of "The Chosen One", and Jesse doesn't like it. He argues with the referee for a moment. Before Hampton tries to capitalize with a kick to the shin, and he goes for an Even-Flow DDT, which Jones quickly reverses in to a Crippler Crossface. He has "The Chosen One" face down in the center of the ring, and he's got nowhere to go (at the 55:40 mark). With 4 minutes, and 20 seconds to go, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones picks up his first victory, and ties it up 1-1. The XWF crowd is livid! Everyone is on their feet, and 9LP seems to be watching the XWF Heavyweight Championship action. Just like the other 2 gentlemen standing around the cell, and the entire Xtreme Wrestling Federation audience is glued to their screen right now. Jesse Jones has 1 victory. Jon Hampton has 1 victory. 9LP the Special Enforcer is keeping a close-eye on HHH, and Mars. Meanwhile, there's less than 3 minutes to go, and nobody's sure what's going to happen.
Both men are fighting for everything they have left. Hampton puts Jones in a sideheadlock, and Jones reverses it in to a nasty Backbreaker in the middle of that XWF ring! Both men are simply laid out, and there's only 2 minutes to go. The fans in the Rose Bowl Coliseum in Pasadena, California are on their feet, and some of them are even standing on their seats, snapping pictures, and documenting this exhilarating battle, between 2 of the XWF's most Xtreme Superstars.
At the 59:00 mark the XWF crowd starts counting down, and all eyes are on the XWF World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones, and the #1 contender, "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton, locked inside that Hell in a Cell for this 60-minute IRONMAN match. They have lasted this long, and each man has gained a victory. But, both men are laying flat on their backs in the middle of the canvas. With about 30 seconds left, and the crowd counting out loud, both men start getting to their feet. Hampton is using the corner to pull himself up, and Jones is using the ropes to help lifting himself up. They have 20 seconds to go, and they're trying to regain their composure. Trying to plot their last move, and make something happen. That's when Hampton stands straight up in the corner, and turns towards the middle of the ring. But, Jesse Jones flings himself up off the ground, using the ropes as leverage, and momentum- to carry himself to the middle of the ring, a step faster than Jon Hampton. With that, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones kicks "The Chosen One" Jon Hampton in the guts, and sets him up for the devastating finisher, known to the XWF fans as, "The Jay-Walk". It is a mind-blowing, Crucifix-Powerbomb! And when he connects with it in the center of that XWF ring with 10 seconds to go, the XWF fans errupt with excitement!!! They know it's coming. They've been waiting for it for years, it felt like years since they were truly excited about an XWF ending. The XWF World Champion, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones wrapped-up The Chosen One's leg, and pinned him for the 1, 2, 3!
At the 59:57 mark, with 3 seconds to go, and the entire XWF crowd behind him, "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones picked up his 2nd pin-fall of the night, and found himself up 2-1 over Jon Hampton, becoming the victor, and remaining as the XWF Heavyweight Champion of the World.
The Hell in a Cell is raised up, as the 60-minute time limit expires, and the match is finally official. As "The Mad Dogg" Jesse Jones celebrates in the ring, and the XWF fans enjoy the festivites with him. 9LP gets in the ring, and so does HHH, and Mars. They shake Jesse's hand, and they give him a lot of respect. War Machine comes out, and so goes Suicide King. They congratulate Jesse Jones in the middle of the XWF ring.
