DARK MATCH
Danny Vice vs. JackHammer
Jack Hammer dominates the match, winning it after hitting his finisher the Earth Shatterer on Vice and pinning him 1.2.3.

{{nCw's Collision comes onto air after a video montage set to the tones of Daughtry's There and Back again. We are taken to ringside almost immediately.

All four competitors are in the ring as the official rings the bell.

Dark Prophet, Hammond and JFK all look at Jason, then at each other, the three men nod at each other as if in agreement that they were going to focus on Jason, DP runs at Jason in the corner and hits him with a clothesline, squashing SJ against the turnbuckle, Jason falls on his ass in the corner and DP takes a step back, allowing JFK and JH to advance and both lay the boots in on the Xtreme Champion.

Hardy: Hey I thought it was every man for himself...

Fox: What are you talking about, Joe's not involved in this match, but Jason does seem to have a target on his back because these three men know that if they can pin him, they'll get a title shot...

Hammond and JFK smirk at each other as they drag Jason to his feet, and invite DP to take a free shot, DP steps forward and punches Jason in the gut, SJ crumbles to the floor as all three men look to stomp on him, SJ wisely evades by rolling under the bottom rope in an attempt to catch a break.

Hardy: Smart by Jason right there

Fox: That's why he's a Champion...

Back in the ring, JFK and JH look at each other, then at the bigger man DP, who dares them to try something, Hammond rushes in first only to be caught by the throat...JFK try next, but Prophet also catches him by the throat in his other hand.

Hardy: This could be big right here...

But before DP can lift the two men, JFK and JH kick DP in the crotch to escape the double chokeslam attempt.

Fox: Low blow never fails...

Hardy: They can't be disqualified so the match continues.

As DP is cradling his trouser furnishings JFK and JH start laying punches into the back of the big man, JH continues the beatdown, oblivious to the fact that JFK has stopped and is now glaring at him. Satisfied that DP has been neutralised for the moment, JH looks over and JFK clotheslines him to the mat.

Hardy: Well I guess the alliances are over.

Fox: No kidding, that clothesline nearly took Hammond's head off.

As Hammond stumbles back to his feet, JFK leaves his and hits a dropkick which hits JH square in the chest and sends him down. JFK then wastes little time in dragging JH to the middle of the ring and applying an STF.

Hardy: JFK could win here

Fox: If he does, he can kiss his title shot hopes goodbye.

Hammond looks to be in immense pain with nowhere to go, he screams out, raising his hand as the referee drops to his knees asking if JH is going to tap, the valiant young star shakes his head...but continues screaming as JFK continues the pressure. Suddenly out of nowhere, Sexy Jason slides innto the ring and stomps on JFK, forcing him to release the hold.

Hardy: Where the hell did he come from?

JFK and SJ start trading blows, until SJ ducks a right hand and catches JFK around the waist, he delivers a German Suplex. Jason keeps his hands locked and delivers a second, but releases on the third.

Fox: The Xtreme Champion with a comeback here.

Jason takes a little time to taunt for his female fans but as he turns around he is met with a stiff big boot from DP. DP wastes no time in dragging a loopy SJ to his feet and hitting a big sidewalk slam. He hooks a leg.

1...2...JH breaks it up.

DP does not look happy and glares at JH as he gets to his feet and clotheslines the smaller man to the mat. DP then grabs JH and kicks him in the gut setting him up in the powerbomb position.

Hardy: This will be big...

DP has Jack on his shoulders, but the smaller man shows his athletism by hopping off the shoulders of DP and landing on his feet, JH runs to the ropes but on the rebound is caught by JFK in a quick T-Bone Suplex.

Fox: My God! What a match!

JFK then with equally fast thinking catches DP as he turns around with a Jumping Knee Facebuster which staggers the big man. At this point SJ runs full speed at JFK and hits a flying neckbreaker. He hooks a leg trying for the quick win.

1...2...kickout by JFK

Jason can't believe it and the two men again try to trade blows, JFK gets the advantage this time as he ducks a right and hits a release German Suplex on Jason. JFK gets to his feet quickly only to be surprised by Hammond who hits a perfect Mustang on JFK. DP then catches Hammond by the throat and delivers a picturesque Chokeslam from Hell. DP then spots Jason using the ropes to get himself up and DP readies himself to deliver another chokeslam. SJ stumbles into the vice grip of the Dark One and as DP lifts him in the air, SJ quickly turns it into a DDT, driving ther big man down.

Hardy: What a counter!

Both men lie almost motionless in the middle of the ring, but SJ barely manages to slump an arm over DP's chest...1...2...thre - DP gets a shoulder up just as the ref's hand was coming down.

Fox: This is great!

Hardy: I thought it was over right there!

Jason gets a little frustrated and rolls out of the ring. He looks under the ring and pulls out a chair, by this time, both JFK and JH are back on their feet and as Jason slides in with the chair, both men have the same idea and stomp on Jason, JFK then picks Jason up and kicks the chair into position for a devasting Double Arm DDT onto the steel chair, busting Jason open...JFK wastes no time in going for the cover.

Hardy: This one is over.

1...2...Hammond breaks it up and tries for the cover himself...1...2...JFK breaks it up...1...2...DP pulls JFK off of Jason and delivers a big chokeslam to Hammond who tries to take advantage. Jack rolls under the bottom rope, holding his throat. JFK runs at DP but DP is ready and sends JFK over the ropes to the outside with another chokeslam.

Hardy: Prophet is on fire!

Fox: No kidding, the first chokeslam sent Jack rolling out of the ring, then a second sent JFK over the ropes to the outside!

DP is left with the bleeding Jason in the ring and DP drags him to the centre of the ring and leaves his feet trying for a big leg drop across the throat. Somehow Jason rolls out of the way and Prophet misses, Jason sees the opportunity and uses it to stomp on the legs of DP.

Hardy: How is Jason still in this thing?

Fox: The heart of a champion, Hardy.

Jason grabs DP's legs and tries for the Sexy Stretch, but DP wraps his big strong legs around the throat of the Xtreme Champion in a modified Leg Lock Sleeperhold and as DP applies the pressure, blood starts to trickle from the mouth of Jason. Jason starts to pass out, and the referee grabs the Xtreme Champion's right arm and lets it fall. One. Then it falls for a second time. Two. And then for the third and final time. Three. The referee has no choice but to call for the bell as 'Iowa' by Slipknot hits and DP releases the hold and gets to his feet, the official raises Dark Prrophet's hand in victory.

Hardy: Well the Xtreme Champion gave it his all, but it wasn't enough...

Fox: And now Dark Prophets gets his title shot and the chance to proof why he is the true God of Xtreme...

Amber Ashe: Here is your winner and new number one contender for the nCw Xtreme Championship...DARK PROPHET!

Eric Hardy: Welcome back to nCw's Collision fans. Right here, right now, we get to the see the continuation of a legendary feud. These two men have literally been feuding since the craddle. The real question I suppose is, will it end tonight, or only escilate?

Kelly Fox: Well Eric, I think it could really go either way here. Both men have victorys over the other. Jon Micheals seems very determined. Then again Reckless Jack does have the Age of Revolution to back him up.

Eric Hardy: Haven't forgotten, only hoped they wouldn't come.

Kelly Fox: I hear you have absolutely no problem there, even prematurely some times.

Eric Hardy: Ha ha, really funny Kelly.

Kelly Fox: you left it wide open. Here comes Jon Micheals.

( We hear thunderous riffs from Marty Friedman and Dave Mustaine as Psychotron by Megadeth hits. The lights turn blue and yellow soundlights go off at every hit of the double bass and pluck on the bass guitar. Fog rises through the stage.

Assassin in stealth Assailant from Hell Impervious to damage Computer on-board Engaged in a war Non-stop combatant Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Part bionic And organic Not a cyborg Call him Psychotron

Burning inside Godspeed in glide Battle plan running A killing machine Just downright mean And forever gunning Maybe not a mutant, maybe a man

Jon Michaels walks out onto the stage and plays to the crowd to boos. He points in the air around him then lets fly his trademark middle finger. He starts walking down the ramp and turns to his right and points at himself with both thumbs ala Matt Hardy, and continues down the ramp. Jon slides into the ring and points to himself with his thumbs again, and walks over to the ropes on the other end and stands on the first and second ropes, raising his right fist into the air, forming the devil horns and headbangs. He jumps down and waits. )

Eric Hardy: Micheals looks amped.

Kelly: Fox: Micheals looks hot.

Eric Hardy: Can you focus, just once?

Kelly Fox: Sorry, it's just after looking at you all night, and suddenly having some half way attractive in front of me is really distracting. I imagine you feel the same way after shaving in the mirror then seeing a corpse on TV.

Eric Hardy: Speaking of corpses, someone once said your as stiff as one. Any truth to that?

Kelly Fox:....

Eric Hardy: Yeah. Here comes... Awww come one.

"I see all this potential, and I see squandering. damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy s**t we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off."

The lights go out as the off sounding beats of "Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums" by A Perfect Circle come in over the arena's sound system. Soon thereafter, most strange sounds come in. After forty two seconds, when the sounds form more of a coherent sound, red strobe lights start to flash all over the arena. In fact, after every hard drum beat, they flash off and on. That is, until the voice of Maynard James Keenan begins to be heard. Following that, the crowd begins to look around to see the members of Age of the Revolution, wearing black hooded sweatshirts (hood up) and black bandannas over their faces, walking through the crowd, forgoing a more traditional entrance. They forge their way through the masses of ignorant people in attendance although a few seem to be on their side, wearing Age of the Revolution clothing. Most of the crowd starts to boo at this point but none of the members or followers seem to pay attention to them. Instead, they just focus on getting over the ringside barrier that is set up. Once all three hop over, they slide into the ring as red rain falls from the ceiling, much like blood. Reckless Jack peels his hood off as the 'blood' rains on him. Xavier Williams jumps around in the corner, letting the rain fall off him while Lance Ryan stands in the corner, angry, determined, wanting to put the hurt on someone. The lights come on as the rain stops. Reckless Jack's hair is soaked while Lance and Xavier pull their hoods down and take their bandannas off. The music slowly fades away...

Eric Hardy: Just great. Micheals is going to have to compete with the whole crew tonight.

Kelly Fox: The ref is asking them to get out of the ring so we can get this under way.

( The ref is ushering Lance and Xavier out of the ring. Jack takes his hoody, rushes up behind Micheals who is posturing to the crowd, and wraps it around his throat. Xavier quickly starts to argue witht the ref, as Lance starts to head around to the other side of the ring. Lance is in and throwing punches left and right into Micheals stomach. Jack continues to wrench back on that hoody. Micheals looks like he is going to pass out. )

rc Hardy: This is just disgusting. The Age of Revolution knows no bounds. TURN AROUND REF!

Kelly Fox: Not yet, I like this. Raw violence is good.

( Lance jumps out of the ring, and Jack lets Micheals go finally. He throws the hoody outside, and pulls Micheals to his feet, slamming him hard into the turn buckles. Xavier gets out of the ring too. Lance and Xavier take posts at either side of the ring. Jack is taking his him. Throwing stiff elbows into Micheals throat. The ref finally rings the bell. )

Kelly Fox: Now this one is official. I kind of wish the beating would have lasted a little longer.

Eric Hardy: I think it ended just in time for Jack to take advantage and grab an easy win here. I do hope that Micheals will be able to mount an offense.

Kelly Fox: Why?

( Jack grabs Micheals by the hair, then snapmares him hard to the mat. Micheals is sitting up, Jack lands a quick drop kick to his back. Micheals rolls to his stomach and Jack spring boards off the roads landing a back elbow drop. Micheals grabs his stomach, and Jack heads to the top rope. He taunts the fans for a moment. His loyals cheer, but most boo him. )

Eric Hardy: Sickening.

Kelly Fox: Jealous.

Eric Hardy: Of what? The gang beating? Or the arrogance?

Kelly Fox: Both.

( Micheals gets to his feet and Jack jumps off the top rope, grabbing Micheals for a devastating tilt a whirl DDT. Micheals rolls to the ropes. He starts to pull himself up on the bottom rope. Jack grabs the ref, turning his back to Micheals. Lance grabs Micheals head and begins to choke him on the bottom rope. Xavier gets up on the opposing ring apron. The ref goes to yell at him now. Jack sprints to the ropes, grabs the top rope uses it to leverage himself up, and over Micheals then drops both feet with all his body weight on Micheals back. Micheals lets out a loud,gurgling scream. Lance lets go and heads to the other side. Xavier gets down. Jack continues to apply pressure to the back of Micheals head, further cutting off his oxygen. The ref pulls him back. )

Eric Hardy: Does this need to continue? Can the ref please just get them out of here so we can have a fair match?

Kelly Fox: I'm still liking it.

Eric Hardy: I bet you'd like a tree on one situation.

Kelly Fox:....

( Jack begins to pull Micheals up, Micheals lands an elbow in Jack face, then turns an kicks him in the side, then the other side, then an right elbow, and another kick. Micheals backs Jack all the way into a corner. Micheals goes back, then runs up and a lands a shining wizard, dropping Jack to the mat. Micheals heads to the top rope himself. Jack begins to get up on all fours, and Micheals soars, nail a senton bomb, and nearly breaking both their backs in two. Micheals gets up. Jack is up on one knee. Micheals kicks him hard in the side of the face, and Jack falls to the mat. Micheals pulls Jack up, lands a few knees to the gut and a dick looking round house kick. Jack stumbles, and then falls through the ropes. )

Eric Hardy: This was the break Micheals was waiting for all match. If he can just keep Jack out there, he's go this one.

Kelly Fox: A count out? Are you serious?

( Micheals runs back to go off the ropes, but Xavier grabs his leg, tripping him up. Micheals lands face first on the mat. Lance gets up onto the ring apron, the ref stops his count at four, trying to get Lance off the apron. Xavier drabgs Micheals to the outside, and irish whips him hard into the guard rails. Jack comes around the ring, picking up speed, Jack leaps and nails a flying heel kick. Micheals is down. Jack brings him to his feet. Both he and Xavier pick Micheals up over their heads and drop him on top of the guard rail. Jack rolls back inside, and Lance gets off the apron. The ref turns, just in tim to see Xavier half on the other side of the ring. Micheals is still drapped across the guard rail. The ref re starts his count. )

1....2....3....4....5....6....7

Eric Hardy: Come on Micheals, get up.

Kelly Fox: I wanna see some blood.

( Jack climbs to the top rope, he jumps, 8... )

Eric Hardy: JACK WITH A HIGH RISK LEG DROP TO THE OUTSIDE!!!

Kelly Fox: THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!

( The ref has to re start his count. Jack slowly gets to his feet, Micheals is trying to follow. Jack grabs him and rams his head into the steel steps. Then he goes inside. )

1....2....3....4....5

( Micheals climbs back up onto the apron, Jack runs strait into him sending him flying back off and onto the guard rails again. )

Kelly Fox: Those fans are sure getting their money's worth.

( Micheals is to his feet, and leaning on the side of the ring. )

6....7....8

( Jack goes off the ropes, looks for a base ball slide into Micheals face, Micheals spots it, moves. Jack goes strait to the outside,lands on his feet. Micheals grabs him and starts landing punch after punch. )

Eric Hardy: This is going to break down into a street fight any second now.

Kelly Fox: It's getting pretty intense.

Eric Hardy: As long as Jack's goons stay away, Micheals may be able to turn this around.

Kelly Fox: IF they stay away.

( Micheals and Jack are exchanging punches. Micheals gets the upper hand, and lays out Jack. Micheals rolls inside, then goes up to the top rope and )

Eric Hardy: JON MICHEALS WITH A BACK FLIP DDT TO THE OUTSIDE!!!!

Kelly Fox: These two are laid out again.

Eric Hardy: The ref is heading out to check on them. Micheals gets up to his feet, and stumbles back into the guard rail. Xavier and Lance are checking on Reckless Jack...

Kelly Fox: I think these two are going to explode. They need to be in a more xtreme enviroment.

Eric Hardy: I just may have to agree.

( The ref is bent over checking on Jack. Trying to get him to communicate. Lance and Xavier both start to head for Micheals, who quickly rolls into the ring. The ref is pushing them both away, trying to get them to head back up the ramp. Reckless Jack is up. He's getting a chair. )

Eric Hardy: Please don't do it this way.

Kelly Fox: He just wants to win.

( Jack comes up behind Micheals, Micheals turns, ducks the chair shot, sends a spinning heel kick towards Jack, nails it. Knocks Jack on his back. Micheals spring boards off the ropes, Jack throws the chair up, Micheals lands, almost crushing his sternum, and falls to the mat. Jack lays the chair down, grabs Micheals and lands the Nothing Saves on top of the chair. Jack slides the chair out and pins )

Kelly Fox: Now the other two are sending the ref back in.

Eric Hardy: I can't believe this. The ref slides in the ring and...

1..2..3

Kelly Fox: The Age of Revolution picks up another one.

Eric Hardy: At what cost? And what will Micheals do when he gets up?

( The Age of Revolution celebrates in the ring as we head to commercial. )

"Immortal" by Adema begins, Falcon emerges through the smoke, runs left, does some hand gestures, runs to the right, does a little more.. walks down the ramp, runs and slides into the ring, jumps on the turnbuckle, points at the crowd and stuff.

the lights in the arena turn dark red and the beginning of We Are Anonymous by Massive Girl Fight blasts through the speakers*

"You cannot hide We are everywhere We Cannot Die We are forever We’re getting bigger and bigger Every day Call us legion For we are many"

*Legion walks out onto the stage to a mixed reaction. he slowly walks down the ramp and climbs onto the apron*

"Knowledge is free We are anonymous We are legion We do not forgive"

*Legion steps through the top and middle ropes into the ring and fixes his tie. he straightens his mask and waits in the middle of the ring*

The bell sounds. Falcon swings at Legion, but Legion blocks it and he unloads with a series of rights and lefts of his own on Falcon. He backs Falcon up into the corner with his punches before stopping and turning them into Knife Edged Chops. The sound of his hand smacking the skin of Falcon echos through the arena with each one. Legion finally stops and he grabs Falcon and he irish whips him across the ring into the far corner. Legion backs up as far as he can before he charges at Falcon and he jumps up and nails him with a big splash in the corner. Legion moves to the side and Falcon stumbles out of the corner. Legion picks him up and he nails him with a sidewalk slam. Legion gets up and he moves down to the feet of Falcon and he picks them up and he tries and does lock in the Sharpshooter. Falcon yells out in pain as he reaches for the ropes. He is close to them so he easily grabs them. The referee tells Legion to break the hold, but he doesn't until the referee gets to four on the five count. Legion gets to his feet and he picks Falcon up as well. He irish whips Falcon into the ropes and he nails him with a clothesline that damn near knocks him out of his boots.

Eric Hardy: Legion is in control here tonight!

Kelly Fox: I have money on Falcon. But he cannot beat Legion? Bulls**t!

Legion picks Falcon up to his feet. Falcon looks to be out of it as Legion irish whips him once again into the ropes. Falcon comes back only to be dropped with a modified Powerslam. Legion mounts Falcon and he begins to pound away on the face of Falcon. He draws blood before he gets off and he picks Falcon up to his feet.

Legion goes to kick Falcon in the stomach but Falcon blocks it. Falcon hits Legion with a Spinning wheel kick. Falcon picks Legion up and hits the Aerial Spike! Falcon goes for the cover, 1..........2..........3!

Eric Hardy: And your winner is Falcon! That was a hell of a match. Wait.. what..?

(Angel appears out of the crowd holding a steel chair. He slides quietly into the ring preparing to lay Falcon out.)

Kelly Fox: What is Angel doing out here?

Eric Hardy: By the looks of that chair, he has evil intentions..

(Falcon turns as Angel swings the chair. Falcon side steps and kicks Angel in the side of his head. The chair falls to the canvas as Angel slides quickly out of the ring, holding the side of his face. Falcon grabs the chair and lays it on the prove Legion. The two exchange yells as Falcon climbs the turnbuckle. He points at Angel, then the prone Legion.)

Eric Hardy: What is he doi.. Oh my god! He just swantoned onto the steel chair that was on Legion!

Kelly Fox: What kind of nut is this man!?

Eric Hardy: I don't know.. but if he wanted to send a message to Angel, he succeeded!

Kelly Fox: This is getting out of hand real fast, something has to be done.

Eric Hardy: This is going to end one way or another at Soverign. Or at least we hope so.

{{Commercial Break}}

Hardy: Up next we have a preview of what could be. Angel takes on Ricky Johnson.

Fox: Non title as you know. Wich is a good thing because the former rockstar looks to be in trouble here.

Hardy: I don’t know Kelly. Ricky Johnson is the X Division Champion for a reason. I wouldn’t count him out of the game just yet.

The lights go out in the arena as Dragula by Rob Zombie begins to play. The fans boo because they know very well who this is. When the lights come back on just as the song speeds up, Angel, and his girl Shelly are on the ramp. Angel in his classic "Jesus" pose. The two head to the ring, Angel slides in under the ropes, while Shelly walks up the steps. Angel pulls the second rope up for her, so she may easily enter the ring. Angel stands on the second rope in the corner and poses once more, while Shelly praises him from the center of the ring.

Fox: Are you kidding me? This guy has been nothing but impressive since he has got here. This match should be for the X Division Championship right now.

Hardy: But he has to go through Falcon before he gets that chance. Tonight Ricky gets a bit of scouting done.

Down by 311 hit’s the speakers as Ricky Johnson walks out to the ring to a smattering of applause. He holds up his title as the crowd cheers.

Fox: Yeah Ricky, make sure you love that championship because Angel is coming for it!

Hardy: Not if Ricky has anything to say about it.

Fox: And he doesn’t!

The two step up and get nose to nose, both talking trash. And it soon erupts into a slugfest with Ricky getting the upper hand in the beginning. Johnson gets a good right hand in and Angel falls to the mat but he gets back up again. Only to get another right hand by Johnson. Angel goes down again but he is right back up and gets rocked with a standing dropkick by the X division champion. Angel stumbles backward into the ropes and Ricky follows up with a clothesline that flips Angel over and onto the apron! Ricky takes in the cheers from the crowd before realizing that Angel is on his feet on the apron. So Ricky springboards from the middle rope and hit’s a dropkick in a very Jericho like moment. Angel flies off the apron onto the ground below as the crowd eat up the excitement.

Hardy: My God! Did you see that onslaught by the champion? It looks like Angel is in trouble here right from the start.

Fox: Don’t let that luck fool you. Angel is just off to a bad start is all.

Angel is starting to stir on the outside as the ref begins his count but its safe to say that Ricky doesn’t want to wait for too long as he gets into a sprint and dives out of the ring onto Angel taking them both out in the process! This garners a huge pop from the crowd!

Hardy: Well it’s safe to say that these two men don’t like each other.

Fox: Johnson is just scared. He knows Angel is coming for his title.

John rolls off Angel and starts to shake the cobwebs out as he rolls onto his hands and knees. The ref of course yelling for them to get back into the ring. But they don’t listen as Ricky points to the steel steps and grabs the helpless Angel. He begins to Irish whip Angel but Angel reverses! Sending Ricky crashing into the steel steps with all the strength the wrath of God could muster! Ricky hits so hard he flips over the steps and immediately begins clutching his knee cap.

Hardy: Ouch. Ricky might have a knee injury after that one. Damn that Angel.

Fox: Hey. Eat it, Hardly. Ricky was going to do it first. Angel just did what he needed to do to avoid himself being in that situation.

The ref who is on five right now wonders why he even counts anymore as Angel walks by completely disregarding anything he says. He stomps on the knee of Ricky who screams out in pain and then begins to grab him by his head. Angel hit’s a knife edge chop onto Ricky who stumbles back into the ring apron. Angel shoves the X division champion into the ring, breaking the refs count. Angel goes to inflict more damage but Ricky starts to fight back some more with elbows to the midsection. He breaks loose of Angels hold and grabs him with a side headlock. Angel reverses it into a side headlock takedown, but Ricky bounces out of it quickly and as the two get back to there feet, Ricky comes in with a back slide pin. The ref gets down.

1...2.….kickout by Angel who tries to battle back but Ricky keeps control with more chops to the chest. Ricky battles Angel into a corner and then comes in with a ruthless shining wizzard as Angel lies slumped in the corner. Ricky backs up again looking for another but Angel explodes from the corner with a dropkick to the knee that sends jolts of pain through Ricky’s body as he falls to the mat holding the sore joint.

Hardy: Oh man. That was the bad knee again.

Angel holds his jaw where he took the knee to the face but he smiles as he see’s Ricky holding that knee. Like a salivating dog he begins to stalk his opponent. Dropping Ric Flair like knees onto the knee of Ricky Johnson. He isn’t above a few stomps either and it gets really bad when Angel goes for the chop block and takes Ricky down again!

Fox: Looks like the big bad X division champion has twisted up that knee of his. Ha Ha what a punk.

Hardy: Look at Angel just picking apart Ricky Johnson. It’s sickening.

Fox: No. It’s smart wrestling. Angel is a smart wrestler and that’s why he is going to be the next X Division champion! You just watch.

Angel leans down to pick Ricky up but Ricky locks him in a small package. 1.….2.…….kickout!

Fox: Woah. Okay that scared me.

Hardy: Man that was close.

Angel himself seems a little shocked as he goes back to that knee locking in a half crab on the bad knee of Ricky who starts screaming in pain and reaching for the rope.

Fox: Nowhere for Ricky to go! He is stuck in the middle of the ring.

Hardy: Come on Ricky! REACH for it!

Ricky is reaching and stretching as far as he can but the rope just seems to far for him. Angel pulls and wrenches the leg and knee sending jolts of pain through Ricky’s body. He pulls himself toward the rope a bit as he shakes his fist in the air rallying the crowd to get behind him. You can hear the crowd stomp the ground in hopes that it can charge Ricky with an extra burst of energy. He reaches for the ropes as the ref asks him if he wants to give up. NO! he yells as he manages to pull himself a bit further, now his hand merely inches away from the ring rope. Angel yanks as hard as he can but miraculously Ricky is able to grab the ropes. Causing the crowd to pop and the ref to force Angel to break the hold.

Fox: Damn! Ricky Johnson just die already!

Hardy: Not while he is still breathing he wont!

Fox: Yeah because that’s not a redundant statement, Hardly!

Angel tries to grab Ricky by the hair but Ricky swings with a right hand that finds its mark. He sends another and another as Angel begins rearing back. Ricky pulls himself up with the ropes. He limps towards Angel and cracks him with another right hand. He goes for the “Fade Away” (taz-mission).

Hardy: OH! He has it locked in!

Fox: Wait! Look at Angel!

Angel powers Ricky back into a turnbuckle forcing him to break the hold. Rocky stumbles forward as Angel hops up to the top rope. He jumps backward with a corkscrew leg lariat, AKA the whisper in the wind but in Angel terms…..

Fox: WRATH OF GOD! He hit it!

Hardy: Dead on! That’s gotta be it.

Angel covers Ricky. 1.……2.……………………….3!!!!!!!!

Hardy: Damn! I thought Ricky had it.

Fox: I told you, Hardly! I told you. New X division champion in that ring right now! You owe me ten bucks!

Hardy: I’m not one of your “clients” Kelly. I’m not giving you anything.

Fox: Shut up Hardly. Your just jealous.

Hardy: Of what?

Fox: Uh……um….you were wrong and I was right! So HA!

Hardy: (sighs) Lets just get one with the show, can we?

{{Commercial Break}}

(After Lance Ryhan and Dave Holland make their entrances, One last pop shutters the silence as Holland and Lance glance once more at the crowd. Turning back slowly, the two circle one another as there shadows press agaisnt the canvas.)

Eric Hardy: Well this is going to be a war folks, I garuntee it. Both Superstars need the match in the worst way so don't expect for this one to be easy. It's going to be toe to toe, head to head, move for move.

(Stillness between the two shatters as both lock up heavily.)

Eric Hardy: A quick collar elbow tie up.

(Holland snatches the head of Ryan placing him swiftly in a side headlock. Sliding to behind him, he grips both his legs dropping him face first.)

Eric Hardy: Holland from the headlock plants Ryan down with a double leg take down.

(Grabbing around Ryan chest and lower back he pins him while being overtop, down Ryan jump starts back up to his feet. Pulling apart the Dave's fingures one by one agaisnt his chest, he is snatched right back down face first, implanted against the canvas as instantly Holland ropes his left arm over Lance's head.)

Eric Hardy: Holland drops Lance right back in that position before crawling his way back to his head again settling him in that headlock.

(Resting on his knee, Holland gets to his feet with his arm wrapped and hulstered agaisnt Ryan head. Ramming his shoulder into the stomach of Holland, he is released partially. Ramming it just a little bit more, Holland's threat is loosened as Lance snaps back with a heavy right hand, then another, then another. Pulling the arm of Holland's forward he ducks, underhooking it and lifting him for a Setback before Holland throws a shoulder into his neck. Letting go, he turns to face Holland who takes him down with a drop toe hold into a head scissors that Ryan immediately leaps out of, while both get to there feet.)

Eric Hardy: And there you see the quickness of both Holland and Lance.

(Holland knods his head to be pleased. Extending his hand out at Lance, he quickly shakes before twisting Lancemania into a hammerlock.)

Kelly Fox: Whoa! What cleverness displayed by Dave!

Eric Hardy: I thought it was right cruel if you ask me.

Kelly Fox: Well if it wasn't for the idiot Ryan is, then it never would have happened.

(Holland drives a one hand double axel into the shoulder of Ryan, leaving him to drop on one knee. Driving another, he irish whips him into the ropes lifting him over with a deep deep arm drag.)

Eric Hardy: Holland with that deep arm drag takes down Ryan with the same arm he locked in the hammerlock.

Kelly Fox: So far, it's been all Holland Eric, if he keeps this up, there is no way Ryan will have any chance.

Eric Hardy: That match really hasn't started enough for you to make predictions, give Ryan time.

(Holding his arm in a stable position behind his back, Holland drives his knee into his spine.)

Eric Hardy: And more pain is applied to the arm alongside the spine of Ryan. He's got him in a aquired position that Ryan has to get out of somehow.

(Letting go, Holland backs up as Ryan slides into a corner. Walking after him, he holds over the ropes above before laying one boot agaisnt his chest. Booting him again, and then again, and then again, and then..again, Holland picks up Michaels. Still with his back agaisnt the corner, Holland lifts his arm in the air, placing it over the top turnbuckle. Driving his shoulder into it once, he does again, and then again before irish whipping him across the ring. Landing into another corner hard, Ryan steps out before being lifted by Holland who inturn scoops him up, placing his hand behind him, he delivers a body slam into a arm bar, by flipping with the scoop slam and landing beside Ryan.)

Eric Hardy: And again he's got the arm in a bad position.

Kelly Fox: So far you have to give it up Eric, Holland looks as if he came in this one with a plan.

Eric Hardy: I do give him credit it looks like he came in here with a game plan and he's definitely using it here tonight.

(Raising Ryan to his feet, Holland in turn places the arm bar into a hammerlock before being taken down infront of Ryan with a snap mare right into an arm bar. Quickly as he sits up, Holland stands to his feet. Reversing it, Holland extends the armbar into a hammerlock before Ryan reverses it back. Holding the arm outwards, Holland flips to the canvas before flipping back up with the arm lock in his favor. Tossing Ryan into the corner, he turns him around. Delivering a knife edge chop, he then delivers another that sends Ryan into the ropes. Throwing another, Ryan twirls into another corner. Holland extends another that again leans him into the ropes, before Holland then irish whips him into them. Bouncing, Holland leans into the ropes himself to bounce. When they meet, he throws a closeline but Ryan ducks sending both into ropes. Bouncing and coming close to another again, Ryan throws a closeline that Holland ducks by sliding under his feet. Getting to his feet, he bounces the ropes as Ryan turns ducking down. With a shot to the face, he sends Ryan standing tall. Holland in turn bounces himself off the ropes behind him as Ryan turns around. Using his energy he quickly recieves a cheer or two, using the head of steam on Holland to toss him over the ropes and outside the ring.)

Eric Hardy: And there goes Holland to the outside.

(Through the middle rope, Ryan stands on the apron. Hopping down onto the mat, he picks up Holland sending him head first into the ring apron. He grabs him again. Holding him by the head he walks him over to a particular part of the barricade. Pulling his head back, he snaps forward into the barricade, that Holland holds onto before throwing a few back elbows to Ryan releasing the hold, immediately throwing him into the barricade. He then scoops Ryan up, sending him throat first into the steel. Once just isn't enough as he again sends the neck into the barricade. Grabbing his hand he irish whips him forward before his attempt is reversed by Ryan who sends him into the barricade. Bouncing off the rubber, Ryan collides into him with a running forearm.)

Eric Hardy: Ryan just isn't going to quit.

Kelly Fox: Well he better, unless he wants Holland to go crazy on his ass again.

Eric Hardy: Ryan is back on the offensive no matter what Kelly says about the future. This is the present, the present time. Right now Ryan is cleaning house with Holland.

Kelly Fox: Surely you don't realize he only did one move. It's not the whole world. Besides, the match didn't even start yet. Holland, is just allowing Ryan to warm up alittle.

(Ryan picks up Holland. Grabbing hold of his arm, he gives him the fingure recieving a cheer before irish whipping him directly into the steel steps.)

Eric Hardy: And into the steel steps is Holland. Ryan really put the heat on that whip. He was like an MLB pitcher with that one.

Kelly Fox: Shutup.

Eric Hardy: Why?

Kelly Fox: ...Cause I said so.

Eric Hardy: You don't run me.

Kelly Fox: Go easy on the back talk for I call Bukkake Man in here and make you his bitch like last weekend. Did I mention I had that on tape? mwhahaha

Eric Hardy: Your a sick man.

Kelly Fox: I can't help it. It was funny.

Eric Hardy: To laugh at a man when he's in pain. How could you?

Kelly Fox: Easy, you got a VCR? mwhahaha.

(Ryan picks Holland up before rolling him into the ring. The ring official warns of the count before Ryan slides himself in as well.)

Eric Hardy: Referee Mike Federline ordering the two back into the ring before Ryan carries Holland in.

(Into the ring, Ryan gets back to his feet. Holding over the ropes, he stumps Holland's bare chest. Once, twice, three times, four time, he picks him up. Leaning him agaisnt the ropes he irish whips him into the ropes. Holland bounces. Lifting him over his shoulders, Ryan attempts a somoan drop before Holland flips over the arm, sending him off his back, into the arm bar.)

Eric Hardy: And Holland again with the armbar!

Kelly Fox: Yes!

(Quicker then before, Ryan gets to his feet. Holland throws a one hand double axel into the shoulder, but it's almost as if Ryan didn't even take to it. Throwing a right at Holland, he throws another, then another, before he's free out of the arm bar. Throwing another, then another, and then another, Ryan backs Holland into the corner. Tossing another, then another, then another, Ryan then backs up, teasing Holland with a showboat before extending his arm with a knife edge chop to the chest of Holland. Ryan recieves a huge ovation as Holland a little tipsy comes out of the corner and into the middle of the ring where Ryan stalks him down before lifting him up and over on his shoulder delivering the somaon drop into a cover. 1-2-... Hardy kicks out. Getting to his face, he picks Holland up, before Holland gives a thumb to the eye. As Ryan turns around, he plants him down with a running closeline. Back up quick, Holland delivers another. Getting to his feet again, he irish whips Ryan into the ropes. Holland leaning agaisnt the ropes, runs himself into the middle of the ring to catch Ryan with a spinning heel kick. As he falls, Holland covers him. 1-2-' Ryan kicks out. Getting to his feet, Holland picks up Ryan. Holding him by the head, he throws him face first into the turnbuckle before doing it again, and then again, and then again. Leaving him there, he stands behind him. Pulling him backwards, Holland lifts him up with his head under Ryan arm, he delivers a belly to back suplex. Holland stands to his feet after falling with Ryan, before pulling him over more to the ropes. Grabbing the ropes, Holland looks back at Ryan. Hopping he flips the ropes before flipping onto Ryan with a split legged moonsault. He goes for the pin. 1-2-.. Ryan kicks out. Getting to his feet, Holland holds over the ropes a head. Stumping away at Ryan he recieves a few jeers as he picks him back up to his feet. Holding his trunks and overhooking his arm, he lifts him up with a vertical suplex. Ryan slides behind Holland in mid air. Holland turns around to a right that he ducks suddenly. Ryan turns around before Holland delivers a kick to the mid section. Leaping in mid air, he then locks both legs over Ryan connecting with a rocker dropper. Falling, Ryan lands dead center in the middle of the ring. Holland looks to the crowd before knodding his head. Strutting to the ropes, he steps onto the apron through the middle rope. Holding the ropes, he looks down at Ryan. Jumping up, he summersaults onto Ryan chest before going for the cover. 1-2-... Ryan gets his shoulder up. Holland in rage, begins beating on the canvas. Getting to his feet, he picks up Ryan. Tossing him into the corner, he extends his hand before delivering a knife edge chop. Extending the arm again he connects with another, then another, then another. Looking at Ryan in the face, Holland then holds the ropes before climbing over top of him. Standing over the first pad, he climbs the other. Holding over Lance's head, he delivers a right. Then another, then another.) Crowd: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-'

(Ryan suddenly moves out of the corner with Holland in the air. Holding him up, he walks a little before falling back, sending Holland flap jacked into the turnbuckle.)

Eric Hardy: And a flap jack by the former leader of NWS

(Holland face first lands. Ryan turning around, turns Holland around in turn. Connecting with a right hand, he sends another, then another, then another. Irish whipping him into the opposite corner, Holland hits hard, slowly coming out of the corner before lifted up and over Ryan who delivers a back body drop. Back up quickly, Holland is lifted up and over with another back body drop. Then another. Back up a fourth time, Ryan irish whips him before pulling him forward lifting him up and planting him with a huge spine buster. Both men fall before Ryan slides himself on Holland for the cover.)

Eric Hardy: Cover! 1-2-

(3- Holland gets the shoulder up. Ryan rolls off him before getting to his feet. Picking Holland up, he leans him into the ropes before irish whipping him. Holland reverses. Ryan bounces the ropes coming back to Holland who quickly delivers the Highlands sidekick. Ryan falls. Holland as well.)

Eric Hardy: And there's the high leg sidekick. Can Holland get the cover?!

Kelly Fox: Oh please God, let him get the cover.

Eric Hardy: Both men are totally out, but wait!

(Holland slides a hand on Ryan chest.)

Eric Hardy: ONE! TWO! THRE

(Ryan gets the shoulder up. Holland rolls off of him. Using the ropes for support, he manages to get to his feet. Lifted up, he picks up Ryan. Delivering a right hand, then another, then another, he irish whips him into the ropes. Bouncing, Holland picks him up by his side, before dropping him over his knee with a backbreaker. Going for the cover, Holland again only gets a two count. Looking to the ring official he pleads his case before getting up. Picking up Ryan, he delivers a right hand, then another, then another, before underhooking Ryan arm, lifting him and planting arm with a Northern light suplex into a bridge.)

Eric Hardy: A bridge!

Kelly Fox: C'mon baby!

(1-2-'- Ryan breaks out of it. There's a sheer pop as Holland looks up with his angry face at the ring official. Saying it was three the ring official shakes his head as Holland gets back up. Asking for Ryan to get up, Holland then picks him up. Delivering a kick to the sternom, he then places him between his legs. Lifting one arm up, he then lifts another. Suddenly Ryan shakes lose, dropping Holland by his knees before taking him with the sharpshooter.)

Eric Hardy: SHARPSHOOTER! SHARPSHOOTER!

Kelly Fox: This isn't good.

Eric Hardy: Shades of Bret Hart!

Eric Hardy: Can he do it?! Can Ryan make Holland tap!

(Holland in pain, screams out. Ryan on the other end, does the same while delivering the pain. Holland crawls to the ropes, before putting his head down. Putting it back up, he crawls some more to the ropes. Reaching out, he puts his head down again, crawling, he reaches, and then grabs the ropes. The ring official breaks the hold as Ryan falls. Both down, suddenly use opposite ends of the ropes to get back up. To there feet, they turn around. Holland throws a right, Ryan blocks delivers his own. There's a large pop after it. Ryan delivers another, then another, then another. Delivering one more, Holland ducks. Ryan turns around as Holland throws a closeline, ducking, Holland turns around, Ryan delivers a kick to the mid section. Going for a DDT, Holland lifts him in mid air. Running him into a corner, Ryan hits the turnbuckles. Holland lets go, before irish whipping him forward. Ryan reverses, pulling Holland forward with a kick to the mid section. Holding over him, he runs into the corner, before hopping off the second with a Maivia DDT.)

Eric Hardy: DDT! DDT! Ryan is going...YES He's going for the pin.

Kelly Fox: NO!

(Sliding into Holland, he goes for the pin. 1-2-3)

Eric Hardy: NO! Holland JUST BARELY GETS THE SHOULDER UP!

(Ryan falls off Holland. Slowly getting back to his feet, Ryan picks up Holland. Delivering a right, then another, then another, and then another, he irish whips him into the ropes. Holland reverses, sending Ryan into him before lifting him over with a belly to belly.)

Eric Hardy: You can't argue with that. That Belly to Belly was perfect, far none the best.

Kelly Fox: And especially from a guy such as Holland!

(Holland lifts to his feet. Looking down at Ryan he runs towards the ropes. Jumping off the second he flips back delivering a lionsault into a cover. 1-2-....Ryan again kicks out. Holland who doesn't believe it, rolls out of the ring. Grabbing a chair, he slides back into the ring. Getting to his feet he lifts the chair in the air. Suddenly from behind is the ring official who takes the chair out of his hands. Turning around Dave yells at the ring official as suddenly from in the corner of the screen, Ryan flips to his feet. Holland turns around, before being underhooked and planted into the canvas with a setback. A large roar runs over the ring from the crowd as both Holland and Ryan are down.) Eric Hardy: Just after a setback, both men are down. Holland from the move that Ryan planted hard over the canvas. Ryan, because of the harsh lionsault and belly to belly. Who will get up first?

Kelly Fox: Scotty, no matter if he got the Setback or not, Hardy is the big deal here tonight, and he's damn sure going to prevail. Referee: ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT!

(Both use the ropes to get back to there feet. Holland turns around running towards Ryan who turns around. Holland throwing himself at Ryan, is caught by his head and thrown into the corner. Holland throws a right. Ryan blocks delivering his own. Holland throws another, Ryan blocks before delivering his own, then another, then another, then another. Pulling him out, Ryan delivers a kick to the midsection. Placing Holland's arm over his head, he lifts him for a vertical. Holland slides down the back before grabbing hold around Ryan lifting him up and delivering a German. Keeping a grip as they fall, Holland picks him back up. Lifting him over, he delivers another. Again gripping around Ryan, he lifts him up back onto his feet and lifts him over with another into a bridge. 1-2-'Ryan KICKS OUT.)

Eric Hardy: MARY MOTHER OF GOD, I DON'T BELIEVE IT! RYAN KICKS OUT!

Kelly Fox: That referee has to be racist cause I can't believe this!

Eric Hardy:.... Holland and him are both white.

Kelly Fox: Well...I...See.. You just shut your mouth.

(Holland leaving Ryan down, starts to climb the turnbuckle. Slowly over the first run, he places his knees down to climb the second. Slowly, he does. He climbs for the top, getting one knee up, then the other, as Ryan slowly starts to move up. Holland gathers himself up on the top. Turning around, Ryan suddenly catches him, moving the ropes for him to fall with the turnbuckle under his nuts. There is a strong cheer. Ryan climbs the first pad. Slowly the second. Lifting the arm of Holland's over, he grabs hold of his shorts. Lifting him up, Holland doesn't go. Lifting him again, Holland still doesn't budge. Lifting him a third time, Holland delivers a punch to the gut, then another, then another, before pushing Ryan off the ropes and immediately delivering the Swanton bomb.)

Kelly Fox: HE'S GOT HIM, THERE IS NO WAY!

Eric Hardy: ONE!

Eric Hardy: TWO!

Eric Hardy: THREE

Eric Hardy: I DON'T THINK SO KELLY!

(Ryan gets the shoulder up during a huge pop from the crowd.)

Eric Hardy: Ryan won't quit cause he can't quit. No matter what Holland throws at him, he's still going strong. He knows the importance of this match and he won't let Holland end it for just yet!

(Holland uses the ropes to get back up. Picking up Ryan, he delivers a quick jab to the face. Then another. Then another. Underhooking his arm, he lifts him with a vertical suplex. Back to his feet, Holland looks down at Ryan before walking to the corner.)

Kelly Fox: Where's he going?

(Holland steps on one pad. Then the other. Then the other until he's at the top. Looking down at Ryan, he trash talks him and the people who boo him right to hell. Looking once more at Ryan, Holland flips off with another Diamond Flight.)

Eric Hardy: ANOTHER DIAMOND FLIGHT!

(Ryan gets out of the way as Holland hits nothing but the canvas. Holland gets to his feet holding his mid section but as soon as he turns around Lance Ryan runs full speed and hits a spear! Lance covers 1...2....3!)

Eric Hardy: My gawd... Lance Ryan pulled it off!

Kelly Fox: What a great match, we'll be right back after this break fans.

{{Commercial Break}}

{nCw, comes back as both John Anthony and Spike Kane make their respective entrances. They are in the middle of the ring and they look ready to go.}

Eric Hardy: Well here we go Kelly, it's time for the World Champion Spike Kane to take on John Anthony, a man who has been on a role since coming back to nCw.

(The bell sounds, and the crowd waits with baited breath as the two men shoot proverbial ice-icicles out of their eyes at each other.)

Eric Hardy: This is INTENSE, and you can cut the tension with a knife here.

(Finally, the two men walk near the center. They lock up, with Anthony holding position. Spike quickly twists into an armbar on Anthony’s arm.)

Eric Hardy: I guess Spike is gonna make the arm his point of attack.

(Spike cranks on the armbar, then adds another twist to add pressure. Anthony winces and taps on the arm, then backs Spike to the corner. Spike releases, and Anthony backs off ... then swings with an overhead forearm that misses, banging his injured arm on the turnbuckle and allowing Spike to armdrag him back into the center of the ring and hang on to a seated armbar.)

Eric Hardy: Full Arm Drag and Twist.

(Anthony grunts and gets to his knees. He slowly begins to stand, but Spike elbows the outstretched arm, causing him to fall back to one knee. Spike quickly turns the armbar into a La Magistral Cradle!)

Eric Hardy: One, two, quick kickout by Anthony.

(Anthony stands and walks right back into a deep armdrag from Spike. Spike holds on for an armbar, but at the same time drives his right knee into Anthony’s shoulderblade. Anthony rolls back and slowly stands, then fires off and connects with a right fist to the chin. Anthony whips Spike into the ropes and catches him for a Spinebuster, but in mid-air, Spike grabs the arm and hits a Single Arm DDT!)

Eric Hardy: First impact move of the match goes to Spike!

(Spike immediately applies a grounded hammerlock {Anthony is lying face-first}, continually cranking it in.)

Kelly Fox: That arm of Anthony is gonna be rendered useless!

(Spike then rolls forward and bridges, putting on a Ricky Steamboat-like Hammerlock Submission that just looks brutal. Anthony HOWLS in pain as the ref checks for the submission.)

Eric Hardy: Spike is showing tremendous flexibility, and Anthony is showing tremendous PAIN!

(Spike finally ends the bridge and turns it back into a grounded normal hammerlock. Anthony slowly stands, looking possibly for a back left elbow to break the hold, but Spike quickly runs Anthony’s hammerlocked shoulder into the turnbuckle. Anthony slumps to his knees holding the arms, then receives a seated dropkick to it by Spike. Anthony rolls outside for a breather. He paces around ringside holding and shaking the damaged arm, and he looks up to meet a twisting Pescado {slingshot out-of-ring dive} by Spike!)

Eric Hardy: Sure Fire has proven to be a master in the air.

(Spike stands and spreads his arms out, drawing a massive pop, yet some boos from the hardcore Anthony supporters in the crowd. Spike lifts Anthony to his feet and rolls him inside. Spike steps up to the apron and climbs to the top rope! He pauses for several seconds, waiting for the now-standing Anthony to turn and face him, but finally Spike loses patience and flies off for a double axehandle. Anthony suddenly and violently whips around and naisl him in the gut with a left hand, somersaulting him forward on the sell. Anthony holds his injured right arm, then turns to run, jump, and nearly DECAPITATE Spike with a left-handed Steinerline! The crowd erupts.)

Eric Hardy: Anthony now trying to fight through the pain of that right arm that Sure Fire has nearly taken apart.

(Spike is laying face-first after twisting on the clothesline oversell. Anthony walks to him and jumps up, driving his knee into Spike’s forehead, actually making FULL CONTACT, drawing “OH”s from the audience. Anthony stays on his knees and grabs Spike’s head, then begins rapidly banging the back of it into the mat! After about five of these shots, he lifts Spike to his feet and uses his good left arm to deliver a hella stiff knife edge chop. The impact is so great that instead of “WHOO!”, many fans yell “OHHHHHH!”.)

Kelly Fox: Spike’s chest was nearly collapsed from that shot!

(Spike staggers back, and Anthony whips him into the ropes. Anthony reaches out for a left clothesline, but Spike wraps around the arm and hops onto his back, trying to take him over with a Crucifix, but Anthony smiles and sticks him down with a Samoan Drop!)

Eric Hardy: Excellent counter! One, two, Spike rolled his left shoulder.

(Anthony stands and lifts him to his feet, bends him over, then rocks his head straight back up with a majorly stiff knee RIGHT to the nose. Spike yells and backs into a corner, where Anthony stalks him. Anthony adjusts the black fingerless glove on his right hand, then reaches out with his left hand and grips Spike by the throat. He uses this throat grip to trap Spike in the corner and lean his head back over the buckle. He then DRIVES his right fist straight forward, smashing Spike’s nose. He continues pulling straight back and firing straight forward with jackhammer-like right hands to the nose and cheek. EIGHT of these blows later, and Anthony finally releases and allows Spike to slump to the mat, leaning on the bottom turnbuckle with blood just leaking from his nose and mouth.)

Kelly Fox: Sweet God, what a s**tkicking!

Eric Hardy: This is like watching two different matches! The first one was dominated by Spike, and now this one’s being dominated by Anthony, who is just MURDERING him!

(Anthony is obviously going mega stiff at this point. He pauses and looks down at Spike with a sneer. Anthony lifts him up, hooks him, lifts him, and holds him upside down in a Suplex position for several seconds before dropping him with a vicious Brainbuster! He covers.)

Eric Hardy: BRAINBUSTER, and Spike may be legally dead! It’s all academic now. One, two, Anthony has won-NO! Spike KICKED OUT! HOW?!?!?

(Anthony stands and lifts Spike to a doubled-over position. He sticks Spike’s head between his legs and looks out at the cheering crowd. He lifts Spike up and just PLANTS HIM into the mat with a snap Scott Norton Powerbomb. The crowd pops big and counts along with the ref.)

Eric Hardy: Flash Bomb variation! ONE! TWO! ... THRE-KICKOUT BY SPIKE!

(Anthony looks at the referee in astonishment. He lifts Spike to his limp feet and shoots him into the ropes. He reaches out for a Lariat, but Spike ducks under and hits the brakes. Spike turns Anthony around and attempts to lift him into a fireman's carry but Anthony slides through and off Spike's shoulders. Spike turns to try and catch Anthony but Anthony lowers a shoulder and lifts the World Champion up onto his shoulders and hits a dead on arrival!)

Eric Hardy: One! Two! THREE!

(Johny Anthony is the winner by pinfall)

Eric Hardy: OUT OF NOWHERE!! ONE, TWO, THREE!!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD! JOHN ANTHONY just pinned the World Heavy Weight Champion!

{Suddenly as Johy Anthony is jumping up and down in the ring celebrating his victory “Snow Blind” by Black Sabboth hits and Leonard Fox walks out onto the ramp.

Leonard Fox: Wow.... Amazing victory Anthony, I didn't know you had it in you. Beating the world champion.... that's so fine work. That's why I'm extending an invitation to you.... to join the Coliseum match at Sovereign!

Eric Hardy: Are you serious!? John Anthony is going to be in the Coliseum match!?

Kelly Fox: Looks that way, he sure earned it with his hard work over the past few weeks, that's for sure.

{{Commercial Break}}

Kelly Fox: Up next we have a match that has been sanctioned by the nCw staff. A Tag Team Ladder match between The Smokin’ Aces and The Evil Brothers.

Eric Hardy: Indeed Kelly, this night has been all about The Ace, and right here he gets a chance to steal the show at the end of the night. A ladder match, right here on nCw, and believe me when I say that both teams are going to pull out all of the stops! Let’s get down to ringside and meet the challengers!

{“ Are You Dead Yet?” by Children of Bodom hits the PA system and The Evil Brothers both come down to ringside to a chorus of boos. The two men stare at the ladder through their masks as they walk by and slide into the ring.

Eric Hardy: These are two strong, powerful men that are quite capable of tearing Awesome and Ace apart here tonight.

Kelly Fox: As much as I hate to agree with you, I must in this aspect. These two men are huge and will pose a great threat in a no holds barred type of match.

{ *As the opening guitar and drums play, smoke fills the entranceway as red strobe lighting flashes in time with the music, the titantron shows the spade symbol with ‘The Ace’ written across it in white, then the symbol slowly turns upside down as the writing disappears and when the symbol is on its head, its tail burns down and it suddenly becomes blood red – the heart symbol. The heart has ‘Steve Awesome’ written across it in the same style, but this slowly smokes out to leave the words ‘Smokin’ Aces’. As their official logo slowly forms on screen, and the smoke clears, Steve can be seen to stretch his arms out into a crucifix pose with the NCW Tag Team Championship around his waist, and as does so huge flame pyros erupt either side of him and cards begin to fall from the rafters. The Ace steps out with the other belt over his shoulder, beside his partner and both men smirk at each other before walking down the ramp through the shower of cards as the lyrics to ‘Price To Play’ by Staind begin. We fail to see how destructive we can be Taking without giving back till the damage can be seen Can you see? Can you see? The more you take, the more you blame But everything still feels the same The more you hurt, the more you scream The price you pay to play the game… The cards stop falling as The Ace makes his way up the steel steps and Steve slides into the ring as the Xtremetron shows both men using chairs and sledgehammers respectively on their opponents as well as having fun with the women and executing their individual finisher moves on various superstars. Steve drops to one knee in the middle of the ring, whilst The Ace goes to an adjacent turnbuckle and climbs the second rope, holding his belt in the air. Steve kisses his muscles and flexes before he flips his hood back and the lighting changes as golden pyros shimmer down on the two men. And all you see, an all new game And all you step on with no shame There are no rules, no one to blame The price to play the game… The Ace steps down off the turnbuckle as Steve gets to his feet. Both men meet in the middle of the ring as the pyros stop shimmering and the lighting returns to the red it was. Both men stand firm side by side, crossing their fists over their crotches before smirking, and as they each raise an eyebrow, the song fades and the lighting returns to normal, Steve unhooks his belt and hands it over to The Ace who hands them both to the referee.}

Kelly Fox: You cannot forget the speed and the technical abilities of these two men though. Historically speed has overcome size in ladder matches, it will be interesting to see if things continue down that road here tonight.

Eric Hardy: Indeed. One of these teams will leave with the tag team titles on a night that has circled around Ace. Will Ace end his night in style, or will he have his night spoiled by the Evils?

{the referee rings the bell and rolls to the outside of the ring, leaving the four competitors in the ring sizing one another up. }

Eric Hardy: As you all know, the winners of this match, and consequently the tag team champions, will be decided when one member of either team climbs the ladder and retrieves the tag team titles that are hanging high above the ring. There are four ladders outside the ring, one for each member of the match, they are set up in the middle of each side of the ring.

{Eric and Ethan motion with their hands around their waists and then point at the titles hanging high above the ring. Awesome and Ace take advantage of their pre-occupation. Awesom hits Eric with a spear, and Ace shoves Ethan back into the corner and starts unloading on him. Ethan out powers the Ace though and shoves him half way across the ring. Awesome meanwhile, waits as Eric gets to his feet, and clotheslines him over the top rope and to the outside. Awesome follows over the top rope with a springboard and lands atop of Eric. Inside the ring Ace is back to his feet and seemingly upset that he was overpowered. He runs at Ethan and goes for a high cross body but Ethan grabs Ace in mid air and then thrusts him over the top ropes back first into the side of one of the ladders. The crowd boos as Ethan throws his arms high in the air.}

Eric Hardy: So far the power of Ethan and the speed of Awesome are taking control here. Should be interesting to see where this goes next.

{Steve Awesome now is folding up one of the ladders at ringside and sliding it into the ring. At the same time, the huge Ethan Awesome reaches over the top rope and pulls the open ladder into the ring. He however doesn’t see Awesome who is now in the ring, and Awesome is holding the ladder in his arms. He runs across the ring and goes to slam the ladder into Ethan but Ethan turns and drives his own ladder into Awesome’s and the ladder collides with the head of Awesome who goes down hard and is pinned down by a ladder now. Ethan seizes the opportunity and drops his ladder and puts his body on the line with a huge splash onto the ladder, and we hear a scream from Awesome who is underneath.}

Kelly Fox: What a move there…a stupid move though, Ethan just put himself out temporarily, that had to do damage to his ribs.

{Outside the ring Ace is up to his feet and so is Eric Evil. Eric is heading towards Ace, but Ace runs and grabs hold of the steel post and swings a double dropkick into Eric’s stomach. Ace then quickly jumps up onto the apron and does a moonsault onto the fallen Eric. Ace then quickly slides into the ring but is met immediately by Ethan who lays the boots on him and then throws him hard into the corner. Eric now too rolls into the ring and both men start unloading on Ace in the corner, while Steve Awesome is still down and holding his ribs. Eric throws Ace over the top rope and to the outside now and follows to keep him occupied and he tells Ethan to grab the titles. Ethan sets up a ladder in the middle of the ring and starts the long climb to the championships.}

Eric Hardy: This one could be over fairly early here as Ethan is approaching the world titles…

Kelly Fox: Yes, but he has forgotten Steve Awesome.

{Steve Awesome has made his way to the top rope and he takes flight and swings his leg up in midair and nails Ethan Evil with the JAWBREAKER and both men fall lifelessly to the canvas. The fans in attendance blow up from that move and are on their feet as well because Ace has got the upper hand on Eric on the outside and takes the big man down with a spear. Ace reaches under the ring now and brings a table out. He slides the table into the ring and he sets the table up near to one of the corners. He motions to the crowd that he has plans for that table but he is blindsided now by Eric who is back in the ring. Eric and Ace are trading blows in the corner and Ethan and Awesome is now slowly starting to climb the ladder. Eric clotheslines Ace and turns him inside out to the outside of the ring. Ethan now is getting to his feet as well and the two men notice that Awesome is growing nearer to the titles. They take one look at one another and Eric points to the table. Eric and Ethan both walk up behind Awesome, grab him by the seat of the pants and destroy the table with his body as they deliver a huge double powerbomb! The fans in attendance are now chanting “Holy s**t, Holy s**t!” as the Evils now grab a third ladder from outside the ring and set it up near a corner, and set up a third ladder as well.}

Eric Hardy: These two just destroyed Awesome, now they appear to have something in store for Ace.

Instead they appear to change their minds though and both men are climbing up either side of the same ladder. Ace sees this and manages to crawl over and starts shaking the ladder now and both men fall hard to the canvas and the crowd pops for Ace who has saved this match for now for his team. Ace now is climbing up to the top ropes and he is waiting for Eric Evil to get to his feet, he motions that he is going to nail Eric with the FameAcer…he then looks at the ladder in front of him and climbs atop that ladder, still waiting for Eric to get to his feet…

Kelly Fox: This has been Ace’s night, and it would seem that he is looking to end it in style…

{Instead Ace looks at the titles though and he jumps across onto the second ladder and catches his balance. The roar from the crowd is now getting louder as they see that he is making a move for the titles! Ace now is looking to make the leap across onto the third ladder, but Ethan gets up and is shaking the ladder…Ace leaps off of the third ladder ad grabs ahold of the tag team titles, but he has no grips for his feet and is dangling in mid-air. Ethan and Eric both are coming for Ace when out of nowhere Awesome runs onto the scene and double clotheslines both Evils over the top rope and to the outside. He looks up and sees his partner hanging and slides a ladder underneath Ace as Awesome collapses to the mat. Ace unsnaps the titles and falls hard to the mat and is holding the titles high in the air.

Kelly Fox: Where the hell did awesome come from there? He was out cold and put through a table…then he gets a last gasp of breath and saves the day for his partner…

Eric Hardy: If the Evil’s had have gotten to him, they surely would have had this one won, but Awesome managed to take in the situation, and garner a victory for his team here. Ace ended HIS night in HIS way and is still one half of the tag team champions!

{{Commercial Break}}

Eric Hardy: Welcome back fans, now it's time for our main event of the evening!

Kelly Fox: That's right, we'll get to see Jack Manson a mere week before challenging for the World title taking on Joe Everyman.

Eric Hardy: Joe Everyman as elected by nCw officials was chosen as the number one contender, and he'll get his chance to make his mark on nCw tonight.

Kelly Fox: We've seen Everyman pull out some big upsets before, but this might be his biggest yet in nCw if he could pull this out of his hat.

Eric Hardy: I concur.

{1, 2, 3, 4!!!

Survival of the Sickest by Saliva starts blasting over the PA system. Pyros are going off on the stage all over the place.

"I'm a hand up mona lisa's dress I'm a smile on every criminal you'll ever acquit, I'm the things you've done you'd never admit Cause one hand is on the bible and the other's in s***."

"But right now, your faceless in the crowd I'm shouting out loud The one you counted out of the game Oh wow! Take a good look at me now Should have never had a doubt Is that you I hear screamin' my name?"

Joe Everyman then comes out onto the stage. He looks into the crowd, holding his arm up with belt in hand. Maria Williams walks out from behind Joe and looks into the crowd too. Joe gives Maria a kiss on the cheek as they both start to walk down the ramp.

"I'm a roller I'm a rider I'm number one mother****ing survivor"

"So move over I'm a driver And I'm high and i'm keep gettin higher"

"Yeah yeah yeah! Yeah yeah yeah!"

Joe Everyman and Maria Williams continue walking down the ramp looking into the crowd. Joe then comes to the end of the ramp and does a jump onto the apron..

"I'm the one you thought that you could erase But a predator that's faster than the food that it chased, You fall off the horse you brought to the race I'll be the one who's flyin' by ya kickin' s*** in your face."

"And right now, your faceless in the crowd I'm shouting out loud The one you counted out of the game Oh wow! Take a good look at me now Should have never had a doubt Is that you I hear screamin' my name?"

Joe Everyman walks up the steps and climbs into the ring. He looks around in the crowd and hold up his arm. Then loud blue pyros shoot from the ring posts. Joe then stands and waits.

"I'm a roller I'm a rider A number one mother****ing survivor"

"So move over I'm the driver And I'm high and I'm gonna keep gettin higher"

"Yeah yeah yeah! Yeah yeah yeah!"

Eric Hardy: And here is Everyman, he looks like he's ready for a fight here tonight.

Kelly Fox: He better be ready for one.

{The arena is a buzz with excitement as the crowd await the next event. Suddenly a remix of "The Fight Song" by Marilyn Manson begins to play over the PA system. The lights in the arena dim and a spot light flashes on during the FIGHT! part of the song.

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

After the 4th FIGHT! the heavy guitar riff explodes into life as the fans go wild. The lights disappear and a heavy rain of white sparks erupt into the air on both sides of the arena as Manson walks onto the entrance ramp, with the National title wrapped round his waist under his leather coat, and stands under the sparks. His leather coat shimmers from catching the light from the pyro.

He smirks to himself as the fans cheers can be heard over the less distorted riff.

"Nothing suffocates you more than the passing of everyday human events And isolation is the oxygen mask you make your children breath it to survive

Manson walks confidently down to the ring, raising his fists into the air as he takes in the adoration from his fans.

"I'm not a slave to a God that doesn't exist I'm not a slave to a world that doesn't give a s**t"

He walks over to the left side of the ramp and tags a few of the reaching arms before moving over to the right and repeating the action.

"And when we were good You just closed your eyes So when we are bad We'll scar your minds"

Manson reaches for the top rope and pulls himself onto the ring apron, he turns around and faces the entrance ramp to the ring once more. He holds his arms out and tilts his head back. A red coloured firework goes off with each FIGHT!

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

"FIGHT!"

As the second verse plays Jack turns back round and steps into the ring over the middle rope and paces back and forth, removing his coat in the process. He walks over to the ropes and hands the coat to a stage hand and warms himself up. Manson then runs on to the right turnbuckle closest to the entrance ramp. He looks around, takes the National title from round his waist and thrusts it high into the air. The flashes of camera's flicker on and off as he hands the belt to the referee and motions for his opponent to come down to the ring with both hands. The music fades as he drops back to the ring and locks his eyes on the entrance. }

Eric Hardy: And here is competitor number two, the defending champion Jack Manson. Lets get this match underway!

{The bell rings and the match is like Hardy says ready to go. Manson comes up to Everyman and Everyman comes up to Manson and they lock each other in the middle of the ring. Manson gets the upper hand by taking Everyman in a side head lock. Manson punches him in the head twice as he holds him there and then spins out and through tripping up Everyman's legs with the spinning drop toe hold, no Everyman is flat on his face on the mat. Manson springs up off the mat to his feet and jumps into the air, he comes back down with his knee driving it straight into the back of Everyman. Manson leaves the knee there and takes Everyman by both arms and begins pulling them back, lifting Everyman's upper body off the mat and pulling it into his knee. Everyman screams out in pain as Manson just pulls harder the more Everyman struggles. Finally Everyman is able to wrestler his arms loose and Manson gets back to a vertical base. Manson reaches down and attempts to pull Everyman to his feet but Everyman drives the crown of his head into the gut of Jack. JM takes a step back holding his stomach in pain and Everyman rolls him up with a small package and takes a hand ful of tights as he's rolled up the ref counts 1...2...**Kickout by Manson!**}

Eric Hardy: Wow! Everyman just tried to steal the match!

Kelly Fox: What are you talking about?

Eric Hardy: Everyman grabbed a hand full of tights and was trying to win the National Title in an unfair way... what do you think I'm talking about?

Kelly Fox: There's nothing wrong with that, he's just doing what it takes to be a champion. Sometimes you have to get your hands dirty.

{Manson is back to his feet and doesn't look happy at Everyman. Joe turns around and sees Manson running full steam in his direction and Joe ducks a huge clothesline attempt from Manson and turns around to face the National Champion, but Manson is ready for him and connects with a jab and initiates the muay thai combo that sends Everyman flat on his face again to the mat. Manson pulls Everyman to his feet and drags him into the corner where he takes him by the head and is looking for a Tornado DDT but Everyman manages to hold his ground while Manson is in mid turn and throws him flat on his back. Everyman takes both of Manson's legs and spreads them wide after getting to his feet. Everyman looks at the ref and then dives head butting Manson in the stomach, but of course the actions connect with Manson's private parts after the original hit. Manson holds his lower section in pain as Everyman pulls Manson closer to the ropes and puts him in position. Everyman climbs the turnbuckles and signals to the crowd who boo him. He doesn't let it bother him as he comes flying from the top rope and hits the flying elbow drop. Everyman stays on top and hooks the nearest leg, covering Manson. 1....2.... **Manson rolls a shoulder**}

Eric Hardy: So close, Everyman almost won the National title with that.

Kelly Fox: So true, Everyman could almost taste the National Title.

{Everyman slaps the mat and tells the ref that match should be over. Everyman pulls Manson to his feet but Manson hits Everyman in the stomach with a strong elbow. Everyman steps back and tries to punch Manson but Manson grabs his arm and flips Everyman up and over his shoulder to the mat flat on Everyman's back. Everyman arches his back in pain before he flips over and tries to get to his feet but Manson dives and catches joe in the face with a dropping double foot drop kick. Manson makes his way to his feet and then to Everyman and pulls him off the mat by the back of his head. Just as Manson is bending over and pulling Everyman off the mat Age of the Revolution's theme hits the PA system! Manson drops Everyman and turns quickly to look at the stage but he sees nothing and the music suddenly stops.}

Kelly Fox: What is going on here?

Eric Hardy: I have no idea, that's Counting Sheep but I don't see AotR anywhere.

{The music stops and Jack looks confused. Then suddenly Everyman is behind him and rolls him up with a school boy, Everyman throws his feet onto the ropes and holds on tight, the referee counts 1....2....3! Winner and new National Champion Joe Everyman!}

Eric Hardy: What in the hell!? Everyman's done it, he's pulled out this National Title victory, thanks to these dity tactics!

Kelly Fox: The AotR hit their music but didn't come out, giving Everyman just enough time to sneak a victory in!

{Just as Everyman is handed his title he holds it into the air and the crowd is booing wildly. Snowblind by Black Sabboth again hits as Everyman looks shocked as he turns to see Leonard Fox stepping out.}

Leonard Fox: Joe... impressive. If there's something I like, it's seeing somebody do anything it takes to win. And you know what? Doing anything it takes to win is exactly what this Coliseum match at Sovereign is all about. It needs another person who is willing to do whatever it takes to walk away a winner and you would be perfect for the match.

Eric Hardy: What?! Everyman has just stolen the National title and now he's going to rewarded for it by being give a shot at the #1 contendership!? That's crazy!

Kelly Fox: Your crazy Hardy, this Coliseum match is shaping into one of the greatest matches ever, and you're complaining about Everyman doing what it takes to win?!

Eric Hardy: Kelly you just don't understand good sportsmanship do you? Well fans make sure and what the pay per view... we're out for the night.}

{{With that, Collision goes off the air.}}
