in a four way steel cage match for the IWO World
Heavyweight Championship!!!
Brian Richardson - We're ready for the main event, here at WrestleClash, as the steel cage above is finally being lowered!! It's time to see who among the 4 top superstars in the IWO will leave Los Angeles as the IWO World Champion! Let's go to the introductions, and keep in mind that the IWO Vice President conducted a drawing of straws backstage to determine the order of introductions!!
Shawn Kennedy - LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!! It's time....for the MAIN EVENT!!!
(The fans are losing their minds around the Staples Center...Shawn grins, then continues...)
Shawn Kennedy - The next match is for the International Wrestling Organization World Heavyweight Championship, and is set for one fall, with no time limit...and it is a 4-WAY STEEL CAGE ELIMINATION MATCH!!! Introducing one of the challengers...standing six foot five, from New Orleans, Louisiana, he is The Perfect Devil...Santiago...DESANTE!!!!!
("Wanna Be A Martyr" by Full Devil Jacket pounds from the speakers, as Santiago appears at the top of the ramp...he smiles, his eyes flashing, and heads to the ringside area, looking warily at the cage...he enters through the door and begins to stretch a bit...)
Shawn Kennedy - And his opponent...from Ann Arbor, Michigan, standing six foot ten and weighing in at two hundred ninety five pounds...Pagan!!!
(Lightning flickers across the black background of the IWO Jumbo Tron, accompanied by the sound of thunder...the fans rise, cheering heartily, as four skulls, one in each corner, appear on the screen and start to spin slowly...Suddenly, Saliva's "Click, Click, Boom" hits the speakers as a giant flash of white pyro explodes in a sheet across the front of the ramp...as the pyro shot fades, Pagan is visible, holding up a single fist...the fans are cheering their minds out, and Pagan extends his index finger from the upheld fist, then lowers his arm and levels it at Desante, his eyes burning, and a rather arrogant smile on his face...he makes his way to the ring, and eyes up the cage as well, entering only after referee Roger Corey makes Desante move to the opposite side of the ring...)
Shawn: And their opponent...he hails from Dallas, Texas, standing six foot six...a member of the DWO, and he is the IWO WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION...JAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGG!!!!
("Coming Back Again" by Crystal Method hits the speakers as the DWO logo appears on the jumbo-tron...the fans are cheering as the champ appears..Jag looks cocky as ever, holding the IWO Title across his shoulder...he points at members of the crowd as he makes his way to the cage and hops in, glaring at Pagan and Desante...)
Shawn Kennedy - And their opponent...hailing from...
(Shawn is cut off as the lights fall out, and a sharp, vicious guitar sound rips throughout the air of the arena... Red, flaming pyro explodes upon the rampway, leaving a mass cloud of thick, smokey gas, white and red lights begin to pulsate at the heavy beats of "Bad Blood" by Ministry like a throbbing heart as none other than Lee Sharkstone himself walks out, camoflauged by thick clouds of billowing smoke... As the cloud begins to fade we see his face is emotionless, his eyes locked on the cage with a certain dark fire in them that just tells you something is going to happen... Lee turns around for a second, his back towards the crowd, displaying the silver coloured words acros the back of his jacket "It's good to be a b*stard" Sharks lowers his arms allowing it to slide down to his hand where he unhooks his left and turns back, it now draping from his right hand which is quickly to throw it aside, not to the fans, not to the floor, but merely dispose of it... Lee smiles fleetingly with a wash of inane humour before he continues to make his way down to the ring, glancing at the fans either side yet trying not to... he reaches the cage and pauses, looking up at the huge structure, then walks around the side flings the door open and stepping inside, he strolls to the dead centre of the ring, and as the lights come back on, another burst of pyro explodes as Lee Sharkstone thrusts both arms into theair.)
Brian Richardson - Well, I guess we know who the fourth member of this little dysfunctional group is gonna be! Let's go over the rules of the match, Tim! How about telling the fans what to expect here?
Tim Wright - Blood. Lots of blood. And maybe some guts.
Brian Richardson - Shut up. Fans, this match is a steel cage elimination style match! The rules are simple. There is no interference. The only people in the ring will be the four competitors, the referee, and a cameraman who has been allowed to film from the inside of the cage. Now you may be asking, what is an elimination match? Well, four men will start, and they can be eliminated by pinfall or submission. There is no countout, because the steel cage will keep them inside! The last man standing will win the IWO World Heavyweight Title! So let's get it on!!
Tim Wright - Can you use a lamer catch phrase there, buddy?
Brian Richardson - Shut up.
(The bell rings, and Roger Corey motions for the match to begin, amidst the deafening roar of the fans...all four men look at each other for a moment, shifting and watching to see who will make the first move...then, like a symphony, all four men collide in the center of the ring, with fists and feet flying...the action is almost too frantic to call, much less to tell what the heck is going on...after about 45 seconds of this, the men evolve into two pairs, Jag fighting it out with Sharkstone, and Pagan and Desante going at it in the other corner...)
Brian Richardson - What a start to this match! Jag and Lee Sharkstone are going at it hammer and tongs, Tim! How about if I call that part of the match, and you tell us about Desante and Pagan!
Tim Wright - Sounds fine to me, Boring...er....Brian!! Pagan and Desante have no love lost for each other, and they are killing each other, with Pagan having the upper hand right now! Pagan nailing Desante with some STIFF chops across the chest! Now Pagan, climbing to the second turnbuckle...he's peppering Desante with rights and lefts!! Pagan now, hopping down, he tosses Desante in the ring ropes...Desante ducks under the lariat! WOW! Nice lariat from Desante! Pagan goes down hard! Desante now, looks at your boys, Brian, but Pagan is back up, and it looks like all 4 men may switch!!
Brian: HOLY CRAP! Jag just flew across the ring and attacked Pagan! These two have quite possibly the fiercest rivalry in the IWO, and they HATE each other!!! Jag and Pagan, exchanging blows! Jag with a nice scoopslam on Pagan! How the hell did he get Pagan over his head?? Jag now, dropping repeated elbows across Pagan's throat!!
Tim Wright - And as Pagan and Jag continue to brawl away Sharkstone and Desante are locked in an intense stand off, they step inwards, eye to eye, and head to head, suddenly Lee shoves Desante back with his left hand and then hammers a hard right into the side of his opponents face, Desante returns with a right hand of his own, and now Shark, Desante, back and forth, niether man giving an inch, how much more can they take?
Brian Richardson - OH MY!!! These men are BOTH starting to trickle blood from there faces... Shark with a HUGE right hand takes Desante down to one knee, but the Perfect Devil gets back up fast and delivers one of his own with a similar effect on Lee Sharkstone, who now returns to his WAIT! LEE SHARKSTONE LUNGES FORWARD INTO A VISCIOUS UPPERCUT TO THE GROIN!!! Desante bent over in pain as a bruised Sharkstone staggers back into the ropes, charges forward and unleashes a PAINFUL boot into the nose of Desante before falling to a knee in exhaustion to catch his breath!
Tim Wright - And now shrugging it off, Sharkstone approaches his downed opponent and places a few boots into the rib cage... Shark now runs across the ring with a primal battle cry and CRASHES Pagan's face into the cage, Lee spins around picks up Jag over his shoulder as if for a spine buster, BUT WAIT! Lee turns to face across the ring, he runs and leaps, shoulder first into the steel mesh, almost breaking Jag in two, as he turns around we see it, I think that trickle of blood may just have triggered something in Sharkstone here, as he now SPINEBUSTERS Jag down and begons to hammer away with lefts and rights, he grabs the sides of Jag's head and begins to SLAM it into the mat, over and over again, Sharkstone stands up, dragging Jag with him, he gorilla presses him above his head!!! HOW CAN LEE LIFT A MAN AS BIG A JAG!!! WHAT STRENGTH! Shark now somehow THROWS his victim face first into the cage wall, that could have broken his neck!!! Pagan is up from the over side of the ring and runs in but SHARK CATCHES HIM WITH A LARIAT AND ALMOST TAKES HIS HEAD OFF!!! He places a big boot across Pagan throat and now begins to choke the life out of him until he finally releases it five seconds later...Sharkstone pauses, his face a crimson mask of insanity, he turns around but DESANTE WITH THE DARK GIFT OUT OF NOWHERE!!! All four men now down and out of it!! Holy cow, fans, what's gonna happen here??
Brian: All four men are down...wait! Pagna is rolling up to his knees! Desante is up as well! Desante covers Sharkstone! 1.....2....Sharkstone got a shoulder up! We almost had a new champion there! Pagan is back up, and he sees Jag on the mat! Pagan with the cover! 1....2....NO! Desante drops a double axehandle across Pagan's back, breaking the count! Sharkstone is back up, and kicks Desante in the back, then nails him with a release German Suplex!!
Tim Wright - Pagan is back up now, he picks Jag up by the hair and sets him up, nice suplex by Pagan! He follows that up by picking up Jag and ramming his face into the door of the cage! HOLY...he rammed Jag so hard that the door of the cage popped open! Jag is down and out! Here's Pagan, with the cover! 1......2.....Sharkstone with the save!! Sharkstone came DIVING over to break up the count, and he rolled right out of the door! Now Pagan and Desante are going at it!! Trading rights and lefts!!
Brian Richardson - But what's this? Lee Sharkstone is reaching through the cage, under the ring... HE HAS THAT BARBED WIRE WRAPPED CHAIR! HE WOULDN'T TRY AND WIN LIKE THIS WOULD HE??? He pulls it into the ring with him...
Tim Wright - Lee looks at his opponents... he looks back at his chair... and now he looks out across the fans.. Shark steps towards them... BUT WAIT!!! HE SHAKES HIS HEAD!!! COULD THIS BE??? Lee throws the chair aside and rips his tanktop off... I THINK SHARKSTONE'S FINALLY BACK LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!! COULD WE SEE THE RETURN OF THE COMMON MAN'S HERO??? Lee now unarmed charges across the ring, his eyes ablaze with intensity, the fans are going wild!!! He clotheslines Desante down, turns around and delivers a BIG TIME spear to Jag who he now mounts and begins to deliver a flurry of hard right hands...
Fans- BEER FOR ALL!!! BEER FOR ALL!!!
Brian Richardson - I think the Common Man's Hero IS indeed back, Tim!! Lee stands back up and turns around to get caught with a sharp boot to the gut from Pagan, Pagan pushes him back, whips him into the ropes NO! Shark reverses and whips Pagan towards the ropes and as he comes back wraps a hand around his throat... Lee lifts him up and lands THE BARROOM BOMB!!! Lee hooks the leg...1...2...
Tim Wright - But a kick out by Pagan just before the three count! That's my guy! He's still in this thing!
Brian Richardson - Quit rooting! Desante, grabbing a dazed Jag, here's the cover! 1.....2.....3!!! Jag has been eliminated! Can you belive it?? The reigning champ is out of it, and we now are going to have a new IWO World Champion! What the heck?? Desante is raising his arm! He thinks he's won!! He thinks he's won!
Tim Wright - Sharkstone grabs Desante from behind! COBRA SLAM!! COVER!!! 1.....2.....3!!!! Desante has been eliminated!! And he can't believe it!! Referee Roger Corey is making Desante leave the cage!! It's down to two men now, Lee Sharkstone and Pagan!! Roger Corey is rolling Jag out of the ring as Shark and Pagan circle each other! This is where it all started, not so long ago, when Pagan defeated Lee Sharkstone for the IWO Title when outside interference cost Sharkstone the title! This is the chance that Sharkstone has been waiting for! One on one, no interference! AND HERE WE GO!!!!
Brian Richardson - They lock up, these two titans who so desperately want to defeat each other! Sharkstone has the advantage! Nice hiptoss, and he follows that up with a quick elbow to the sternum and then a front facelock! Roger Corey is asking Pagan if he is going to give up! Pagan is shaking his head! Listen to that crowd! Pagan is up to one knee!! He tosses an elbow to Shark's gut!! And another! Pagan into the ropes, and he spears Sharkstone to the mat!! Pagan, sitting on top of Sharkstone, peppering him with lefts and rights!! Pagan gets off of Sharkstone and picks him up! Death Valley Driver!! Cover! 1......2.....kickout! I don't know how the heck Sharkstone kicked out of that one!! Pagan almost won the IWO World Title!!
Tim Wright - The count seemed a bit slow to me, Brian! Pagan looks frustrated! He drops repeated legs across the abdomen of Sharkstone, who seems to be foaming a bit at the mouth!! What IS that stuff? Oh my god, it's blood! Lee Sharkstone may have some internal injuries here! Pagan now, what the hell is he doing?? He's climbing up the cage!!! The fans are going out of their minds!! I think that this is the loudest crowd that I've ever heard in my life!! Pagan is at the top of the cage now, and he's standing on the corner of the cage! He's struggling to maintain his balance! He can't win by escaping! What the hell is he doing??
Brian Richardson - And Sharkstone is back up! He wipes his mouth and he's just seen the blood! He's also clutching at his side, fans! He staggers into the corner! And that sent a shiver up the side of the cage! Pagan loses his balance! He just crotched himself on the cage, and THAT WILL leave a mark! But fans, how badly is Lee Sharkstone hurt?? Sharkstone now, looking around in a daze...he spots Pagan, who is incapacitated at the top of the cage! The crowd is exploding as Lee Sharkstone begins to climb the cage! I don't belive this!! These men are going all out for the biggest prize in our sport! Sharkstone has made it to the top of the cage now, and he is sitting opposite Pagan and is punching Pagan in the head!! Pagan trying to fire back! Neither man has a whole lot of spice in those shots!! Sharkstone reaches back and dazes Pagan with a right hand! Shark now, standing at the top of the cage! He's pulling Pagan up as well!! This could be just deadly!! The two men are struggling...what's gonna...OH, MY GOD!!!!!
Tim Wright - HOLY *BLEEP*!!!!!!!!!
(The crowd gasps as during the struggle, Sharkstone seems to kick Pagan's right foot out from under him...as Pagan rocks backward, he loses his balance and begins to fall, clutching at the tights of Lee Sharkstone and dragging Sharkstone off the top of the cage...in what seems to be a surreal moment played in slow motion, both Lee Sharkstone and Pagan fall off the top of the cage and float lazily in mid air, their fall interrupted by a sickening *thud* as they both impact the minimal matting on the floor below, outside the ring...the arena goes eerily silent.)
Brian Richardson - OH MY GOD!! WE'VE GOT TO GET SOME HELP OUT HERE!!! LOOK!
Tim Wright - Here comes IWO President Alex Watson, followed closely by IWO Commissioner Da Man 2000!! They are checking on both of these competitors! Here come the EMT's, and IWO VP Kevin Siegel!! All of the IWO staff are really concerned about these two men!! The EMT's are checking on both competitors, and the IWO Prez, VP, and Commish are in conversation in a huddle! Fans, we ask that you do hold on, as we need to make sure that these men have suffered no serious injuries! Look! Brian, look at the top of the ramp!!
Brian Richardson - WOW!! I don't believe it! Some of the IWO roster has gathered! There's Patrick Feeney! And there's Cameron Dace, One, Twinblade, and Brett Logan! Folks, the IWO may have it's problems amongst each other, but this is one big family, and all these men are concerned about our two warriors! Even The Strike Eagle, Jim Logan has come out!
Tim Wright - We're getting word now, that the EMT's are reporting that Pagan and Lee Sharkstone are both coming around!! The EMT's are talking to IWO President Alex Watson! Wonder what they are saying?? Wait a second, the IWO President is getting in the ring! What's he got to say?? He's got a mic, let's listen!!
Alex Watson - Ladies and gentlemen, first, let me tell you that Lee Sharkstone and Pagan are both awake and alert!
(The fans erupt in cheers.)
Alex Watson - HOWEVER...due to what just happened, I am going to end the match right now, and hold up the IWO World Title until next Monday, where Lee Sharkstone and Pagan will meet for the IWO World Title at Powerslam, live from The Compaq Center in San Jose!
(The fans boo lustily, then roar as both Pagan and Sharkstone struggle to their feet. Watson, thinking that the fans are applauding his decision, rambles on about what smart fans they have here in LA, as Pagan and Sharkstone look at each other. DM2K tells both men what is going on, and Pagan and Sharkstone stumble to the door, and roll into the ring...Pagan shoves Watson to the mat, as Sharkstone grabs the mic...)
Shark- Watson, don't you even bloody think about stopping this one! Right Pagan?
(Pagan grins, his mouth bloody and his entire right side bruised, and gives Watson the bird...Shark and Pagan nod at each other and pick up Alex Watson and roll/toss him out of the door to the ring. The fans are on their feet, alternating Pagan and Sharkstone chants...Pagan looks at Sharkstone, they nod at each other again, and begin to circle each other, albeit a lot more slowly and painfully than before...)
Tim Wright - I just do NOT believe this, Brian! These 2 just fell 15 feet onto some thin matting outside the ring, and now they are back at it! And look up at the ramp!! It's got to be the ENTIRE IWO roster is there, cheering these two on!! What a moment!!
Brian Richardson - You said it, Tim, and these two just look like they've been fighting with a city bus! Here they go! They lock up, and Sharkstone twists in an armbar! Reversal by Pagan! Another reversal by Sharkstone! He clotheslines Pagan to the mat! Quick cover! 1.....2.....thr...kickout!! Tim, the simplest move here could end the match, as much punishment as these men took in that fall!! Sharkstone is coughing now, and some more blood is coming from his mouth! Pagan struggles back up to his feet, and dropkicks Sharkstone in the knee!! Shark is down, and Pagan is working the knee with kicks and kneedrops of his own!!
Tim Wright - And Pagan now, going to the ropes! He charges in at Sharkstone as he staggers to his feet..BUT WAIT!!! SHARK WITH A VISCIOUS FLAPJACK FACE FIRST INTO THE STEEL MESH!!! Pagan is bleeding now as he fall back but Lee catches him in a lift... it's the DSD!!! THE DSD!!! THE FANS ARE ON THEIR FEET!!! COVER!! HERE'S THE COUNT!! 1..........2...........THREE!!!!
Brian Richardson - Lee did it! HE won back the title and by the looks of it his sanity aswell! He smiles broadly as referee Roger Corey hands him the IWO World Title!! And with extreme pleasure The Original Drunken Master climbs atop the cell and now stands high up atop the steel, and kisses his title before thrusting it high above his head in celebration to a roaring ovation!!
Tim Wright - What an image, and what a day for Lee Sharkstone! Thats all the time we have tonight so tune in next week for whats shaping up to be one hell of a Monday Night Powerslam, live from The Compaq Center in San Jose! We'll see you next week fans, GOODNIGHT!!!
