We’re backstage before Collision starts and we find Kelly Knite sitting in the hair and make-up chair getting ready for tonight’s show. Suddenly somebody walks up and grabs her by the shoulder. She lets out a loud scream and clutches her heart when she realizes it was Adam Knite standing behind her.
Kelly Knite: “Oh my….Adam? Way to almost give me a heart attack.”
She smacks his chest in playful anger, before they share a kiss.
Adam Knite: I had an idea Kelly. How about you skip commentating tonight on Collision and spend the night with me. It’s been so long since we could spend any time together.”
Kelly turns and looks at him in her chair.
Kelly Knite: And who would commentate? You know I can’t just leave Hardly out there by himself. He’d wet himself.
Adam Knite: We can throw Willy Carter out there. It’ll be alright. Just come on out with me, it will be fun.
Kelly stands up out of the chair. Sort of slow due to the pregnancy. She walks past Adam and grabs her notes for tonight’s show.
Kelly Knite: Or I can do my job tonight and then we can spend the next week together.
Adam turns around and attempts to block her path toward the door.
Adam Knite: No.
Kelly Knite: Adam, what’s wrong with you? You really miss me that much?
He goes with that instead of explaining how worried he is with Kole Kaos running around.
Adam Knite: Uhh...Yes…baby….just please hang out with me tonight.
Kelly pulls Adam down by his shirt and kisses him.
Kelly Knite: I love you Adam, but I have to work. We can hang out after the show I promise.”
Kelly side steps Adam and heads for the door, when suddenly an out of breath Steve Awesome appears in it, blocking her path again.
Steve Awesome: KELLY NO!!!!!
He takes a second to catch his breath as Kelly shakes his head.
Kelly Knite: What is with you two today?”
Steve Awesome: I can’t let you go out there. I….
Adam Knite: “I already tried. It’s not going to work.”
Reluctantly, Awesome steps to the side next to Adam and Kelly walks out of the room. Both men watch and shake there heads.
Adam Knite: Steve…..I don’t know what’s going on between you and Kole right now….but I swear if he touches her…
Steve shakes his head.
Steve Awesome: He won’t.
Adam Knite: You’re damn right he won’t. Because you are going to fix this. If something happens to Kelly I’d…I’d….”
You could just tell how angry Adam was starting to get.
Steve Awesome: Adam…listen dude. This thing is between me and Kole. He’s trying to get in my head with this whole Kelly thing but I wont let him. Just like I won’t let anything happen to Kelly.”
Awesome puts his hand on Adams shoulder.
Steve Awesome: “Trust me.”
And with that Awesome walks out of the room leaving Adam alone as we cut to the opening of Collision.
BOOM BOOM BOOM! The pyros blast off in all directions as Collision comes to you LIVE! He crowd is screaming, the lights are flashing and the commentators are ready.
Eric Hardy: Welcome to Sunday Night Collision folks. I’m Eric Hardy and we have a great show for you tonight.
Kelly Knite: And I’m Kelly Knite of course and my daddy has made it clear that if Kole Kaos comes anywhere near this commentators booth he will be fired on the spot.
Eric Hardy: Well that’s a relief. Lets get this show started.
"'And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers! And you will know my name is the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon thee!' *gunshots and screams*"
Horns hit and smoke starts to billow from the entrance area as the arena light go into "siren mode"
"Ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba You pussy niggas finna make me kill one a y'all"
Amber Ashe: “Introducing first, from Atlanta, Georgia, weighing in tonight at 255 pounds...Xavier...WILLIAMS!”
Xavier steps out from behind the curtain black hoodie and bandanna on, he walks down the ramp and slides under the bottom rope, he drops to a knee with his head bowed. He pounds his fists into the mat and he stands up and starts to remove his bandanna and his jacket.
Eric Hardy: “Xavier's held the World Title before, can he get a chance to do so again?”
Kelly Knite: “I dunno, Will Washington's a hard one to beat. Still, if anyone can take down the juggernaut that is the Patriotic Punisher, he can.”
The lights in the arena go out as the beginning riffs of “The Soldier’s Song” start, and red, white, and blue lights flash quickly in succession. A spotlight travels throughout the darkness and highlights the crowd before turning off. An explosion is seen and smoke fills the entranceway and the singing starts. The spotlight comes back on Will Washington as he makes his way through the smoke wearing an Army Strong T-Shirt, and dog tags while carrying a tattered American flag. He stops and looks around while he is introduced. “From Cambridge, Massachusetts…..Weighing in at two hundred and thirty-two pounds….. ‘The Patriotic Punisher‘……Will Washington!” Will raises his American flag, before draping it over his shoulders and walking down the ramp. He ascends the ringside steps and lays the flag across the top turnbuckle, before entering between the ropes. He goes to the corner and stands on the second turnbuckle. He takes off his shirt and throws it into the crowd, before picking up the flag and raising it once again. He jumps down and walks over, handing his dog tags and flag to the official before going to another corner and throwing punches, waiting for the match to begin.
Kelly Knite: “And here he is, the Punisher himself. Washington's a tough bastard, but will he be able to survive the Coliseum?”
Eric Hardy: “Only one way to find out...”
The bell rings and immediately Will blasts out of the corner and crumples Xavier in half with a spear. Washington mounts his chest and begins raining blows on him, forcing the ref to pull him off. Will gets in the referee's face, which allows Xavier to pull himself back up. He sees Will jawing at the ref and runs to the ropes, drilling him in the small of the back with a Yakuza kick. Xavier stomps on him, shouting at Will to get up.
Eric Hardy: “High-impact from the get-go, as Washington and Williams are pounding away at each other!”
Kelly Knite: “Who taught you to call matches, John Madden?”
WW gets picked up by Xavier, who heaves him into the ropes and drops him with a brutal spinebuster. Will shouts in pain as his back gets driven into the mat.
Eric Hardy: “Nice choice by Xavier Williams, targeting the back of Will Washington to wear him down.”
Xavier ****ily runs for the ropes, hoping to hit The Kill, but gets nothing but the other side of the ring as Washington lays down and lets Black Jesus slide over him. Will, sensing an opportunity, pulls himself to his feet and cinches in a waistlock from behind, drilling Xavier with a bridging German suplex. The ref slides in to count. 1...but X easily kicks out of that. He rolls to his feet and meets Will with a series of rights and lefts, which Washington is only too happy to return. The Strong Style Saint wins the exchange of blows and kicks him in the gut, backing off. Xavier signals for a Shining Wizard, and the crowd explodes in cheers when he charges and nails his knee right into the temple of the Punisher. Will cries out as Xavier slips down and hooks the leg. 1...2...but Will still fights through and tosses the shoulder up!
Eric Hardy: “Xavier might have had him there, but Washington's determination is just too strong.”
Kelly Knite: “Real clever, Hardy. That's such an insightful comment.”
Eric Hardy: “Quiet, you.”
A frustrated Xavier readies for another shot at The Kill, but Will sticks his foot up and Xavier runs his gut straight into it, driving the wind out of him. Will gets to his feet using the ropes and grabs Xavier's head, running towards the turnbuckle and backflipping over him, only to pull Xavier into a double knee backbreaker, hitting the Stab 'N Slice to perfection. Xavier flops forward into the turnbuckle and gets nailed with a quick pair of Stinger Splashes for his trouble. Will then grabs Xavier as he staggers out of the corner and drills him with a crucifix powerbomb. Xavier spasms as if he'd been tased, and Will slips in for the pin. 1...2...2.5...no! Xavier kicks out again!
Eric Hardy: “A sudden burst of offense from Washington could signal the end for Xavier.”
Will stands back up, delivering a cutthroat taunt to pop the crowd. He pulls up the almost comatose Xavier and throws him back into the corner. Will moves Xavier to the top rope and backs off, drilling him with a Yakuza kick of his own to the jaw, doubling Xavier over at the waist and leaving him contemplating the middle turnbuckle.
Eric Hardy: “Will Washington setting up for the Kill 'Em All, it seems! This could be the end!”
Washington stalks over, underhooking Xavier's arms and stepping up onto the second rope. He looks around to the crowd, who scream “KILL 'EM ALL!” Will unhooks one arm to salute, rehooks it and jumps off, vertebreaking Xavier. A crack comes from Xavier's neck as he impacts the canvas.
Eric Hardy: “Ooh! Devastating Kill 'Em All, practically compressing Xavier's head into his body!”
Kelly Knite: “Hang on, am I the only one that heard that?”
Will rolls onto Xavier, exhausted, but still manages to hook the leg. 1...2...3! He rolls back off, throwing his hands in the air as “The Soldier's Song” pumps over the sound system. Xavier's unmoving on the canvas as Amber Ashe announces the winner.
Amber Ashe: “Here is your winner...Will WASHINGTON!”
Eric Hardy: “He's done it! Washington did it! He's in the Coliseum!”
Kelly Knite: “Looks like he might have done more damage than he thought, though. Xavier looks like a corpse.”
Trainers rush out and immobilize Xavier's neck, carrying him to the back, with Leon Wesker meeting them at the curtain.
Eric Hardy: “Will Washington might have taken yet another man out with the Kill 'Em All. We'll bring you an update on Xavier Williams' condition later in the night...on to another match, I guess.”
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
( We open where we left off last week, Angel and Xander seated side by side in two separate arm chairs, Chad Lights across from them in his own, the nCw banner in the background. )
Chad Lights: I wanted to ask you about Gib and what you guys did to him at CrossRoads...
( Angel clears his throat and sits forward. )
Angel: What do you want to know Chad?
Chad Lights: Well... Why did you do that to him?
Angel: Because he deserved it.
Chad Lights: How do you figure he deserved to be beaten to a pulp and choked in front of all those people until he passed out?
Angel: He did not bring the monster.
( Chad looks visibly shaken by Angel's clear and nearly emotionless words. )
Chad Lights: But... Steve put Harold down forever.... Why do you want him back?
Angel: Steve Awesome did no such thing. Yes he defeated and unmasked Homeless Harold but he did not kill him. Homeless Harold still lurks inside of Gib, he lurks inside all of us. He is the darkness in our minds, the devil on our shoulders, he is the voice that makes us do bad things to people we care about. Gib cannot run from whats inside of him...
Chad Lights: You do know Gib has "escaped" the hospital he was in, right?
Angel: I'm aware, and I am prepare for when he decides to show up. I am going to kill the monster, Chad. His blood will be the baptismal water that will wash nCw clean of her sins.
Chad Lights: Maybe so, but I don't think he's going to try and win a match this time, I think he's going to try and kill you.
( Angel only smiles as he leans a little closer to Chad. )
Angel: Messiahs don't get to chose who lives and who dies, our mission isn't to look out for ourselves, we must put the good of the many before the few, and if I die in that ring saving Gib's immortal soul... It's a price I'm willing to pay.
( Angel stands up, as does Xander. )
Angel: You've wasted enough of my time, this interview is over.
( And with that he and Xander walk out of shot. Chad just shakes his head, not believing what he's heard as we fade to black. )
Eric Hardy: Wow, what a night so far, and it's only getting better Kelly because we have a Coliseum Qualifier next in line.
Kelly Knite: The "Voodoo Child" himself takes on the most Honorable man on the Roster, Jimmy Zane versus Atreyu in a match that very well could be match of the night.
Eric Hardy: Zane has proven himself an impact player after scoring that huge win over Falcon, then joining up with Rob and the Infamous, but tonight he has to get past the protege of the God of Xtreme and that is no small task.
"Cult of Personality" by In Living Colour begins to echo throughout the arena as multicolored smoke bellows from the entrance area and onto the stage. Strobe lights flicker as the VooDoo Child himself, Jimmy Zane slowly walks through the smoke. The fans boo as he smiles and pyros explode behind him. As the pyros explode, he shoots off like a rocket, flying down the isle in a spring, sliding under the bottom rope and jumping up as he hits the ring. He jumps to the second rope, taunting the crowd and then steps down as he awaits his opponent in the ring.
Kelly Knite: I don't know how you feel Hardy, but my gut says we're looking at the future World Champion.
Eric Hardy: Thats a bold prediction.
Kelly Knite: He's been on fire and I don't see anyone stopping him anytime soon.
“Honor” by Atreyu begins to play, the drum beat echoing through the arena. The vocals echo throughout as the strobe lights flash wildly. Then nCw Superstar Atreyu steps out onto the entrance ramps walking almost in time with the drumbeat.
Eric Hardy: Atreyu doesn't look very happy with Jimmy Zane.
Kelly Knite: Well after everything Infamous has done, who would be?
Eric Hardy: Probably you.
Kelly Knite: Besides me.
Atreyu gets ready to sprint to the ring when Kristoff Liam Bates comes out from the back with his barbed wire brief case and lays in a shot right to the back of Atreyu's head. Atreyu goes down hard.
Eric Hardy: THE HELL!?
Kelly Knite: Oh, should of seen this coming, classic baddy stable move.
Atreyu is trying to get up but Bates cracks him in the head again and knocks him down. Bates holds the brief case up high and throws that thing into the chest of Atreyu. Jimmy watches from the ring and smiles, Dominicus and the Ace come out from the back, smirks across their face.
Eric Hardy: And where the hell is security at?
Kelly Knite: I'm getting word that Chris Diamond won't let them come out here.
Eric Hardy: WHAT!?!?
Bates scoops Atreyu up and feeds him to Dominicus who hits him with a Dominicus Driver on the brief case. Both Bates and Dominicus stand him up and the Ace comes a swaggering in for a Fame-AceEr on the barbed wire brief case. Atreyu is bleeding out all over the ramp as Infamous scoops up the fallen hero and drags him down the ramp.
Kelly Knite: These guys weren't kidding Hardy, their really out to make themselves Infamous. First they took out Falcon, now it's Atreyu, who's next?
Eric Hardy: I don't know Kelly, I don't know, but I am sure pissed as all heck.
Atreyu is rolled into the ring, Jimmy grabs the ref by the shirt and screams in his face to ring the bell. He does so and Jimmy stands Atreyu up. Jimmy yells something at him before spitting in his face and slapping him across the cheek. Atreyu takes a step and Jimmy pulls him in for the HEADSHRINKER!!!!
"BOO!!!!"
Kelly Knite: The arena sounds like it's going to explode.
Eric Hardy: Thats exactly how I feel Kelly.
Jimmy takes his time walking over to the corner, stepping onto each rope carefully before he makes it to the top. He signals for the finisher and flies off the top much to the dismay of the crowd with BLACK MAGIC! Jimmy hooks a leg for the cover. One.. Two.. THREE!!!!
Amber Ashe: Your winner and moving on to the Coliseum... JIMMY ZANE!!!!
The other three members of Infamous enter the ring and celebrate with Jimmy Zane, much like last week, each of them holding one of the arm's of their partners up in victory.
Eric Hardy: They've been together for less than a month and I'm already sick of these ass****s Kelly.
Kelly Knite: Your not the only one Eric, but their here to make a point and god is it being made.
Eric Hardy: Yeah well, when you play with fire you get burned, they should remember that.
Each of the four of them take a turnbuckle as "Still Counting" by Volbeat plays through out the arena, muffling the boos.
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
{Backstage, Brad Kane stormed into the office of one Keybo Shabaz, nearly kicking the door down on his way in. He throws a crumpled piece of paper at Keybo, who hasn't even bothered to look up.}
Brad: I cannot be 'summoned' to your office like some kind of slave.
Keybo: Well, you're here... so, since I have your attention, I'll get right to the point. What the hell are you doing?
Brad: Whatever the (beep) I damn well please.
Keybo: That's exactly what I'm talking about. I don't care about your war with Diamond or Leo. But when you pull junk like you did last week, now that annoys me. Do whatever you want in your promos, make another crappy sex tape if you want, I can run a disclaimer before those, but NEVER... mess with my TV programming again.
{Brad walks up to the desk, leaning over it and pushing his face within an inch from Keybos.}
Brad: What are you going to do about it?
{Long dramatic pause.}
Keybo: I'm sorry Bradley.. were you waiting for me to be intimidated? Make all the statements of hate, complain about your booking, I don't care. If I ever get another call from the FCC about you, you ARE going to pay for it. Now I believe you know your way out.
{Keybo looks back at what he was doing, ignoring Brad staring at him. Brad picks up an expensive glass snowglobe and drops it on the floor so it breaks.}
Keybo: You can mess with my office all you like. That's just going to get you a spot behind Lance in the unemployment line. Can't bring down the company from the inside if you're on the outside.
Brad: You think this is the only company that will hire me? I could quit and have offers on the table in ten minutes.
Keybo: Door is right over there Brad. Use it or go to the ring, your choice.
{Brad's face twists in anger, but instead of striking Keybo, he shoves a pile of papers on the floor, and exits the room.}
Eric Hardy: Strong words from the Head of the nCw Media.
Kelly Knite: I'm kinda glad someone decided to put that whiner in his place.
The lights in the arena go out. The crowd gets on their feet and begin to give a general negative reaction. Strobe lights start as "Run Rabbit Run" by Eminem starts to overtake the airwaves. After fifty seconds the house lights return to normal as Brad Kane appears from on the stage now as he has a simple smirk on his face as the crowd begins to boo louder than before as they lay eyes on him. Brad starts his walk down to the ring as people yell at him, threaten him among other reactions that he dismisses without a second thought. Once at ringside, he walks around the ringside area, hearing more threats. More negative reaction follows as he completes his trip around the ring. Brad uses the steps to get into the apron before he enters through the middle rope. From there, he heads to the nearest turnbuckle and goes to the middle buckle. He takes in their negative reaction as he smirks before jumping off. He goes and leans in the corner with a huge smile on his face as "Run Rabbit Run" fades off...
Eric Hardy: Brad would like nothing more than to get into the Coliseum, win it, and disgrace our beloved World title for his own needs.
Kelly Knite: That's what douchebags like him do.
The beginning bass line to "Louder Than Words" begins and the fans start to give their boos for Kristoff Liam Bates.
Actions Speak Louder than Words do...
Bates comes out from behind the curtain, he ignores the fans as he walks down and they continue to boo him. He is quick to get down to the ring. He rolls under the ropes and he stretches in the corner getting ready for the match at hand.
Eric Hardy: Speaking of douches..
Kelly Knite: Douche of the month for March candidate right there.
Brad seems to stalk around KLB, he smirks as the two come nose to nose. After some trash talk Brad pushes KLB’s face back, KLB gets back to Brad face to face again, Brad again face palms KLB. KLB explodes with a double leg takedown hitting furious strikes to Brad Kane. Brad pulls himself back and grabs the bottom rope forcing the referee to pull KLB off him. Brad gets to his feet and smiles a bloody smile mouthing “that all you got?”
Eric Hardy: Not sure if taunting one of the most calculating Xtreme champions ever is a great idea.
Kelly Knite: You were expecting a great idea out of Brad Kane?
KLB marches at Brad Kane, Kane hits a stiff kick to the mid thigh of KLB stopping him in his tracks, he measures KLB up and hits another stiff shot sending a clapping sound through the arena to which the fans “oooo”. Brad goes for another shot, KLB catches Brads leg and hits a leg lace takedown, he stands up holding Brads leg and drops down hooking in a heel hook. Brad spins out of it to his feet and reverses it locking KLB’s legs over each other into an Indian deathlock.
Eric Hardy: KLB in a bit of trouble here, thats a nasty hold.
Kelly Knite: Being anywhere neither either of these guys is the definition of nasty.
KLB pushes his legs out with all his strength, Brad releases the hold and pulls KLB up to his feet, he hooks KLB for an exploder suplex, KLB throws a few elbows pushing Brad off, Brad comes at KLB and gets a Japanese armdrag, Brad kips up to his feet he then hits a normal arm drag on Bates, bates with a headlock takedown on Brad, Brad scissors KLB’s head, KLB nips up out of it and runs at Brad clotheslining him down, as Brad sits up KLB runs at him and hits a stiff soccer kick to Brad’s back
Eric Hardy: Bates taking a page out of the BK playbook there with the kicks.
Kelly Knite: Not the playbook you want to steal from.
Bates hits another kick and another, he stops and looks brad in the face and screams “HOW DO YOU LIKE IT?”, From a sitting position brad sits back and kicks KLB in the side of the face staggering him, Brad gets up and goes for Koppu kick, KLB moves out of the way and the referee takes the brunt of the shot, KLB slides out of the ring presumably to catch his breath, Brad walks over and reaches over the top rope grabbing KLB by the hair, KLB then swings a chair he was holding up hitting Brad in the top of the head.
Eric Hardy: Hey! That should be a bell. I don't recall this as being xtreme rules.
Kelly Knite: Well, there was no bell, so get over it Hardly.
KLB slides back in and runs at Brad with the chair, Brad leaps up and hits an enzugiri to the chair causing it to crash into KLB’s face. Brad gets back to his feet and picks up the chair, he looks over at KLB in the corner and smirks, he wedges the chair in between the middle and bottom ropes in front of KLB’s face, the crowd starts chanting “someones gonna get their head kicked in”. Brad starts running at KLB and then hits a face wash style kick to the chair smashing it into Bates face.
Eric Hardy: Crowd rallying behind Brad.. no idea why.
Kelly Knite: Because they don't know what 'destroy the company' means.
Brad starts trying to wake the referee up, the ref starts to stir, Brad kicks the chair under the bottom rope as the referee shakes his head trying to come too, as he does KLB somehow pulls himself up to his feet.
Kelly Knite: Why do all our refs sleep on the job?
Eric Hardy: Stay up all night worrying about bills I guess. Maybe you should pay them more.
BK turns around and hits a stiff forearm to KLB, KLB tries to fight back but Brad ducks a right hand and scoops him up for the Impending doom, KLB kicks his legs and falls back onto his feet, Brad spins around and KLB grabs an arm leaping up wrapping his legs around BK’s head straight into the Suffocating Cubicle (triangle choke) BK can’t help but tap.
Eric Hardy: Brad Kane fought that move will all his heart, but in the end it wasn't enough. And now he won't be making it into the Coliseum.
Kelly Knite: Thems the breaks.
{Celldweller plays as KLB makes his way to the back, satisified with the win. Brad remains in the ring. Suddenly without warning, Brad drops his wrestling trunks in the center of the ring. The crowd reacts wildly.}
Eric Hardy: Why is there a naked Brad Kane in the ring?
Kelly Knite: ....gah! Put that dirty thing away sleazeball!
{Suddenly the feed cuts, replaced by the technical difficulties sign. Several minutes go by, then we come back to the commentary table.}
Eric Hardy: We'd like to apologize for that incident ladies and gentlemen. Brad Kane was removed from the ring, and the arena. I can assure you that New Championship Wrestling had no part in this and does not condone such behavior.
Kelly Knite: That was just disturbing. Seeing little jimmy on TV like that.
Eric Hardy: We'll be right back with more action folks.
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
Silence fills the arena as they await to see what’s up next. Finally sparks start shooting upwards at the top of the ramp, the lights dim as blue and green laser lights ignite the center of the curtain. “You’re Going Down” by Sick Puppies starts blaring. As the chorus sets in, Xavier Cross steps into the arena with a towel draped over his head and shoulders. He stands, motionless at the top of the ramp, before bending down on one knee. He holds his head down, staring at his hands, before popping up and pushing the towel down off his head. His pyro explosion goes off in the background as he starts to make his way down the ramp.
Amber Ashe announces the first competitor: “Introducing the National Champion…….Hailing from Lexington, Virginia…..Weighing in at two hundred and twenty-seven pounds……….Xavier Cross!” Cross shows virtually no emotion as he walks towards the ring, not acknowledging anyone. He makes a beeline for the steps and bounds up them in a flash before stepping through the ropes and into the ring. XC heads over to the bottom right corner of the ring and bends down in front of it. He mouths something before tossing the towel out to an assistant at ringside and steps up, backing into the corner. Our National Champion stands, awaiting the arrival of his opponent.
Eric Hardy: Xavier Cross didn't have much to say about this match earlier in the week, but that focused expression on his face tells us all we need to know.
Kelly Knite: Our National Champion would love nothing more than securing a spot in the Coliseum match.
Eric Hardy: I'm sure Xavier's opponent wants that spot as much as he does. Speaking of his opponent, here he comes now.
A strange guitar riff plays through the PA for a couple of seconds, and as the drums and guitar intro of the song Ladies and Gentlemen kicks in, there's a big explosion as the whole entrance area lights up in pyro. After this happens, Paul Star steps out from behind the entrance curtain and is met by the cheers of the crowd. Paul stands at the top of the entrance ramp and point down at the X-Division championship, which is around his waist. He then starts walking down to the ring while singing the lyrics to the song and giving crowd members high fives. Paul rolls into the ring and walks to the nearest corner. He climbs to the second turnbuckle and raises both hands high in the air. The crowd cheer on as Paul gives his signature smile and points down at the X-Division Championship belt.
Kelly Knite: There's Paul Star. He's showed a lot of heart in recent weeks, winning the X-Division Championship and beating some great opponents.
Eric Hardy: His opponent has shown as much heart, if not more. This is going to be a classic match. Paul will want to get the pace up, while Xavier will be trying to slow things down and lock on some submission moves.
Kelly Knite: I'm looking forward to it, and we won't have to wait any longer. The referee looks about ready to get the match underway.
The referee calls for the bell to start the match. Paul and Xavier circle the ring, then move toward the centre and lock up. Paul gets the upperhand and whips Xavier toward the ropes. Paul goes for a shoulder barge, but the slightly heavier Xavier knocks him down. Paul is quick to get up again, and Xavier hastily whips Paul toward the ropes this time. Xavier goes for a shoulder barge but Paul leapfrogs right over Xavier's head and lands behind him, not breaking his stride as he bounces off the ropes again. Xavier spins around on the spot and leaps forward, colliding with Paul with a Lou Thesz Press. Paul lands on his back with Xavier on top of him. Xavier rains in four or five left and right hands, as Paul covers up, attempting to block them. A couple of the punches get through, but before Xavier can unload anymore, the referee steps in to stop him using closed fists.
Eric Hardy: I thought Xavier was going to show Paul some respect, but he was thinking otherwise.
Kelly Knite: In a match as big as this, there's little room for respect. Both wrestlers want the win, and they'll do anything to get it.
Xavier gets off Paul and stands up, with Paul not far behind. Paul doesn't look happy with Xavier's attitude at the start of the match. Xavier wants to keep the momentum going, so goes right back on the offensive with a swift kick to Paul's mid-section. Paul doubles over, and Xavier grabs him in a headlock. Xavier is looking for a DDT, but Paul has other ideas and turns it into a Northern Lights Suplex pin for 1... 2... Xavier escapes at 2. Xavier stands up before Paul is able to, and knees Paul in the side of the head. Paul looks slightly dazed, but is able to get to his feet. Xavier kicks Paul in the leg once, twice, three times. Paul falls to a knee, and Xavier follows up with a jab from each hand, then an uppercut which knocks Paul down to his back. Xavier leaps and hits a Shooting Star Press, but Xavier is the one who takes the impact as Paul gets his knees up and Xavier lands on them stomach first. Xavier rolls over, clutching his stomach. Paul rolls onto him and hooks the leg for 1... 2... Kickout.
Eric Hardy: Xavier was going for his patented Blood, Sweat, and Tears combination, but Paul managed to counter the last part of it and nearly got a three count as a result.
Kelly Knite: That was a quick last gasp counter by Paul, and it was effective.
Paul stands up, as Xavier is now kneeling holding his stomach. Paul runs at Xavier and goes for a low dropkick. Xavier manages to avoid it, and Paul slides out of the ring, landing on his feet outside. Paul rolls back into the ring, but Xavier cuts him off with a stomp to the head. Paul is shaken by this stomp, but can't shake it off as Xavier unloads a second stomp to his head. Paul tries to get up, but Xavier stomps him some more. Paul finds his way into the corner of the ring, and drags himself to his feet using the ropes. As Paul stands fully, Xavier spins and hits a Spinning Back Elbow. Paul looks out on his feet, only remaining upright due to the turnbuckle he's leaning against. Xavier jogs toward the opposite corner. He points at Paul with both hands, and as the crowd cheers, he charges at Paul with a Wake Up! Paul dives to the side and Xavier eats turnbuckle. Paul stands up behind Xavier, locks in a waist lock, and throws him over with a release German Suplex. Xavier lands hard on his neck and shoulders. Paul gets to an upright position, still looking groggy from the elbow shot he took in the face. Paul sees that Xavier is having trouble getting to his feet, so quickly makes his way toward the corner and hops up onto the top rope. As Xavier gets to his feet, Paul leaps from the corner and hits a nice Crossbody, knocking Xavier down. Paul hooks the leg... 1... 2... 2.5... Shoulder up!
Eric Hardy: That was a nice Crossbody by Paul, who looks to gain the upper hand in this back and forth match.
Kelly Knite: Neither man wants to give the other an opportunity to win.
Eric Hardy: One of them will make a glaring mistake sooner or later, but I have no idea which one it will be.
Paul kips up, looking really fired up now. He drags Xavier to his feet and goes to whip him into the ropes. Xavier counters, and Paul is sent into the ropes instead. Xavier puts a boot into the returning Paul's mid-section, doubling him over. Xavier is quick to throw Paul's head between his legs and hit a Sit Down Piledriver. Paul's head bounces off the mat hard. Xavier stands, lifting Paul to his feet and hitting a release Belly To Back Suplex. Xavier gets to his feet now, walking over to Paul's head slowly. He lifts Paul up again, and Snapmare's him over. Xavier quickly follows up with a headlock on the ground, trying to wear Paul down a little. Xavier releases the headlock and dropkicks Paul in the back of the head. Paul jerks forward then falls back on the mat. Xavier pins Paul at this point for the 1... 2... Paul kicks out.
Eric Hardy: That was a nice dropkick, but it won't keep a man down for three seconds.
Kelly Knite: It may have if Xavier had metal soles on his boots.
Eric Hardy: Yeah, and the referee would DEFINITELY allow him to wear those in a match...
Xavier goes right back to the head, lifting Paul up and slamming him down with a DDT. Xavier bounces off the ropes and drops a leg across Paul's face. He goes for another cover ...1 ...2 ... Shoulder up this time from Paul. Xavier isn't bothered by this, and goes straight back on the attack. He stands, dragging a dazed Paul up with him. Xavier drags Paul over to the corner of the ring, slamming his head on the top turnbuckle. Xavier lifts Paul and seats him on the same turnbuckle he just slammed Paul's head onto. Paul is now facing out of the ring, looking worse for ware. Xavier climbs onto the second turnbuckle, and is just about to climb to the top when Paul suddenly comes to life and throws an elbow blindly at Xavier. He connects dead on the side of Xavier's forehead. Paul throws the other elbow out, hitting the other side of Xavier's forehead. A third elbow knocks Xavier down to the mat. Xavier stays down, holding the side of his head which took the most elbow shots. Paul stands up and turns to face into the ring. Without any hesitation he leaps from the turnbuckle and hits a 450 Splash! Paul hooks both Xavier's legs for 1... 2... 2.5... 3... NO! Xavier got a shoulder up just as the referees hand was about to hit the mat for a third time!
Eric Hardy: I thought we had our next Coliseum entrant right there!
Kelly Knite: The referee was an inch away from the three count, but Xavier is a tough cookie and will fight on in this match.
Paul stands, using the ropes as an aid. He looks at the downed Xavier, who is holding both his head and his mid-section. Paul drags Xavier to his feet. He Chops Xavier's chest a couple of times, backing Xavier into the ropes. Paul pushes Xavier into the ropes, and launches him off toward the opposite set of ropes. Xavier bounces off of these, as Paul takes a step into the middle of the ring. Xavier goes for a clothesline, but Paul ducks and ends up behind Xavier. As Xavier turns, Paul spins and hits the TTLS! Xavier drops like a sack of spuds, with Paul falling down close behind him and covering him for the 1... 2... 2.5... 3!! The referee calls for the bell as Paul's jaw drops. He sits up, a huge smile crossing his face as it sinks in that he just won the match. Just to verify that he is the winner, the referee raises Paul's hand as the crowd cheers on.
Eric Hardy: Paul did it! Paul won with that crazy Corkscrew Roundhouse Kick that we've never seen from him before tonight.
Kelly Knite: It was an impressive move, which ended an equally impressive match. Well done Paul, you're going to the Coliseum match!
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
Eric Hardy: Time for another Coliseum Qualifier. Andrew Jacobsen takes on Sexy Jason Lovegun.
Kelly Knite: I really despise that name.
Eric Hardy: Take a number, sister.
An air raid siren splits the air, followed by the pounding opening riff of Disturbed's "Indestructible". Andrew Jacobsen strides out onto the stage, followed by his manager, Emma Danielson. He looks around at the fans, absorbing the atmosphere.
Another mission, the powers have called me away
Another time to carry the colors again
My motivation, an oath I've sworn to defend
To win the honor of coming back home again
No explanation will matter after we begin
Unlock the dark destroyer that's buried within
My true vocation and now my unfortunate friend
You will discover a war you're unable to win
Andrew begins walking down the ramp with Emma, pyro flares going off on either side of him as he makes his way to the ring.
I'll have you know
That I've become
Indestructible
Determination that is incorruptible
From the other side, a terror to behold
Annihilation will be unavoidable
Every broken enemy will know
That their opponent had to be invincible
Take a last look around while you're alive
I'm an indestructible master of war!
Andrew slides into the ring, jumping onto the second turnbuckle. He poses for the crowd, a broad smile on his face. Andrew jumps down and nods to Emma, who goes to sit over by the timekeeper. Andrew then awaits his opponent.
Eric Hardy: Jacobsen looks ready to take that next time from the midcard to the main event.
Kelly Knite: Thats just the look of repressed failure Hardy.
Look at me by Shram.. Sexy Jason comes out from the curtain. He looks at the crowd. He walks towards the ring. He shows no emotions. He enters the ring. He looks at his opponent and then he climbs to the second rope and flexes. He gets off the rope and turns to face his opponent. He makes remarks about his opponent body. He flexes and brings both hands in front of his body as he holds the pose. Then he gets ready for the match.
Eric Hardy: Jason has tried so hard to make people take him seriously.
Kelly Knite: With a name like Lovegun, not happening.
Jason keeps posing for the crowd as he spies a young lady in the front row, Jacobsen uses this to his advantage and runs up before throwing his body over Sexy Jason with a modified sunset flip, 1....2...Jason kicks out he looks angry as he gets to his feet and runs at Jacobsen, he swings a wild clothesline and Jacobsen runs under it, Jacobsen jumps onto the middle rope and springsback spinning in mid air going for a crossbody, Jason catches him and throws Jacobsen onto his shoulder, Jason signals for a running powerslam, Jacobsen slips down behind Jason, as Jason turns around Jacobsen hits a leaping spinning heel kick sending Jason down.
Eric Hardy: Jacobsen showing why he was the X Division champion.
Kelly Knite: Former. Never forget the former part.
Jason onto his knees now trying to get up, he holds his face trying to shake off the cobwebs, Jacobsen runs in and hits a low dropkick to Jasons chest, he goes for a quick pin 1...2...Jason kicks out with authority, Jacobsen grabs Sexy Jasons arm while they’re both on the ground and floats over locking in a crossface, he pulls back on Jason’s head, Jason rolls over breaking the drip around his head, Jacobsen keeps hold of Jason’s arm and spins around locking his legs around Jasons head making it a triangle choke.
Eric Hardy: Jason in a tight spot here, slowly losing oxygen.
Kelly Knite: And with his shrunken roided brain, he needs all the oxygen he can get.
Jason uses his incredible strength to lift Jacobsen up and hit a modified one arm powerbomb to break the hold, Jacobsens head seems to bounce off the mat as Jason goes for a cover 1...2...Jacobsen kicks out. Jason pulls Jacobsen up to his feet and leans him against the turnbuckle, he hits some devastating knees in the corner to his midsection, Jacobsen huffs and puffs out of breathe, Jason runs to the ropes and comes back looking to throw his entire body weight into Jacobsen, Jacobsen brings his knees up as Jason crashes into him, Jason stumbles back holding his chest as Jacobsen, using the crowd’s cheers as fuel starts striking at Jason with hard rights....
Eric Hardy: Jacobsen fighting desperately to escape, but Jason is a strong man.
Kelly Knite: That's what steroids will buy you.
Eric Hardy: That has never been proven, or even alleged.
Jacobsen keeps fighting, he runs to the ropes as his momentum is high but runs right into a high spin kick from Jason killing it. Jason looks down at Jacobsen and signals for the Sexy Stretch, he locks in the first part and reaches back to grab Jacobsens head, Andrew spins his body keeping his legs wrapped around each other and around Jasons right leg pulling him off balance, Jacobsen gets up and transitions quickly and beautifully into a figure four, Jason is close enough to the ropes to grab them though, both men quickly get to their feet...
Eric Hardy: Both men are hurt and tired, but they fight on, for that spot in history.
Kelly Knite: Only until the next year.
Jason goes for a clothesline on Jacobsen, Jacobsen ducks under it and hits the “lights out”(superkick), Jacobsen quickly slides down next to Jason and grabs his arm locking in the “lock and dam” Jason has no choice but to tap out.
Eric Hardy: Jason had no choice but to tap, giving Jacobsen the win and the spot in the Coliseum match.
Kelly Knite: Well if there was a choice, this is the lesser ot two evils.
Eric Hardy: Do you have to be mean, Kelly?
Kelly Knite: No, but it's more fun.
Eric Hardy: We'll be right back.
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
"It's all over" plays over the PA system. Ricky Johnson emerges from the backstage area, with Roxi in tow, and sneer on his face. He walks casually down the aisle, making it a point not to let fans touch him. They boo him. Roxi hits the ring first and enters between the middle and bottom rope, while Ricky slides in.
The lights dim to a deep crimson red as the house lights go out. "Lies" by Evanescence begins to play as smoke covers the stage. Two sets of candelabras sit on either side of the entrance way and suddenly as the music hits it's mark a lightning effect strikes the stage and suddenly the candles on the candelabra all light at once and Sephiroth du Lac and Lady Jane Grey arise from under the stage mist. He holds a glass chalice filled with red liquid and carries his trademark cane, while she carries a bouquet of dead roses. When they fully rise he begins his walk down the rampway slowly with Jane trailing behind him, smirking and drinking from his chalice as he stares coldly at his opponent and the crowd. Jane likewise smiles seductively and follows him. When he reaches ringside he climbs the stairs and wipes his feet before stepping in the ring. Jane stands at ringside awaiting him. Once in he removes his coat and drapes it over the top ring rope he also sets his cane and chalice down before standing still and staring darkly at his opponent, Jane takes his coat and folds it beside the ring as the lights raise to normal.
Kelly Knite: Seph and Ricky are yet another pair of nCw athletes getting a chance to earn their way into the coliseum tonight.
Eric Hardy: We have seen a few make it in already. The eyes of those men have got to be trained on this match, anxious to see who they should be preparing for.
Kelly Knite: Speaking of being prepared, these two women at ringside could be a huge factor should either decide to get involved. I have to wonder if these guys are prepared for that.
Seph and Ricky circle each other and go to start a collar-to-elbow tie up but Ricky fakes him out and instead hits him in the gut with a boot. A right hand from Johnson now send du Lac stumbling. As Ricky pulls him in close for an Irish whip he is reversed and goes flying at the ropes. He springs back only to be caught by a quick clothesline but gets up immediately. Seph goes for another but it is ducked and Johnson catches him with a neck breaker. He makes a pin attempt But the referee is only able to make a 1 count. Ricky immediately grabs a side headlock on the ground and squeezes tight as he pulls his opponent to his feet. Seph struggles and is able to loosen the grip of Johnson, then drops and jaw jacks him!
Eric Hardy: Ricky may need to check the dental work after that!
Sephiroth takes control and leads Johnson to the corner where he leans him against the turnbuckle. Seph takes a few steps back and runs in with a clothesline. He connects hard and gets ready to do it again but this time Ricky scouts it well and moves out of the way, sending du Lac into the corner chest first. Ricky Russian leg sweeps him out of the corner, putting him down hard. Ricky is eyeballing the top rope and has a smirk on his face. He climbs up but before he can reach the top his adversary is to his feet and hits him from behind, causing him to straddle the turnbuckle facing the fans. Seph forces him into the tree of woe, Johnson is in trouble here. He goes outside the ring and grabs the upside down Ricky Johnson by the head and pulls hard, cranking the neck. Roxi walks over to confront him. Seph lets go and puts his hands up, as though he doesn't want any trouble but the mocking look on his face says otherwise. Jane sees this and steps between du Lac and Roxi, telling her to mind he own business and go back to her side.
Kelly Knite: Things are getting heated here just as I predicted they might.
Eric Hardy: No offense, but this is why I am just terrified of you women.
Kelly Knite: I doubt that's the reason.
Sephiroth rolls back inside the ring stopping the refs count which had reached 6. Ricky manages to free himself from the ropes and is on his knees. Seph takes a run at him and looks to be going for a punt kick but Mr Johnson moves just in time and Sephiroth gets nothing but air. Johnson springs quickly into action and delivers a Side Effect! Johnson takes his momentum further by heading to the ropes for a springboard leg drop and connects. Seph grabs his ribs as Ricky makes a pin.
1...2...
Seph is able to kick out with his lady cheering him from ringside. Ricky grabs him by the hair and pulls him to his feet, locking his hands around the waist and going for a German suplex. Seph blocks it, muscles his way out and goes for a German of his own. He connects and his hands are locked as he gets up and goes for another. He hits the second, and a third. Ricky as down and now it is du Lac who eyes the top rope. He ascends to the top and leaps off for a huge moonsault. He lands hard but Johnson gets his knees up! Seph crashes hard onto the knees and has the wind knocked out of his. Johnson goes up top and and signals for the Phoenix Splash! He takes flight and just as he is about to hit, Lady Jane Grey grabs Seph's leg and pulls him out, causing Johnson to crash and burn in a major way. Seph smiles and seizes the day he sets Ricky up and goes for a Spear of Longinus but Ricky has regained his senses and side steps him, catching him in the Fade Away! He clasps it on tight and Seph is running out of steam! He struggles but its futile. The official stops the match, Sephiroth du Lac has been chokes out! Ricky lets go of the hold and Roxi gets in the ring to celebrate with him to a mixed reaction. Seph is barely able to roll out of the ring and Jane helps him stand. The two men stare each other down.
Kelly Knite: Neither or these guys are going to get a great reaction from the fans but one of them is certainly going to enter the coliseum
Eric Hardy: Fan reaction doesn't matter so much when there is gold in your future and for Ricky Johnson, that is a certain possibility.
~{{COMMERCIAL BREAK}}~
Eric Hardy: You ready to get this match going Kelly?
Kelly Knite: yeah Hardy...
Eric Hardy: What's wrong? You're not getting worried that it's getting close tot he end of the night and Kaos hasn't played his hand are you?
Kelly Knite: Of course not... why would I worry about some lunatic?
Eric Hardy: Because he's a lunatic with an infatuation with your friend and has threatened you?
Kelly Knite: Pushaw.... Bates' ex-wife was scarier than Kaos is.
{The lights in the arena fade to black and the sold out crowd begin buzzing with excitement. They know who is coming, they know what’s up. The sold out crowd begin chanting his name.
*AWE-SOME! AWE-SOME! AWE-SOME!*
Suddenly the epic horns of “Encore” by Jay-Z hit’s the speakers.
“Thank you, thank you you’re far too kind.”
The music picks up beat and a lone spotlight shines down on the stage. The crowd work themselves into a frenzy as The Face of the Franchise steps out onto the stage, gazing out at he sold out crowd chanting his name. The spotlight follows him all the way down to the ring and he slides into the ring underneath the bottom rope and drops down to one knee as the sold out crowd can’t seem to get any louder than they already are. He looks around for a few seconds and then he just flexes his arms as Green and Blue pyro blast out of the ceiling and rain down to the ring. Awesome finishes his pose and hit’s a turnbuckle and yells out to the crowd getting himself pumped up from the fans.}
{( The arena lights go out and strobes begin to go off all over the arena as "Again we Rise" by Lamb of God blares through the PA system. )
RISE!!!!!!
( The Savior X logo appears on the screen, a giant red X with the word Savior written across the center of it. A circle of fire blazes to life on the center of the stage as Angel rises out of it mimicking the Jesus pose, Xander Famularo by his side, the nCw World Championship around his waist. A wall of pyro erupts behind Angel and Xander as they steps through the fire ring and make their way down the ramp on beat with the song, behind them a burning cross replaces his entrance video. Angel reaches the ring now and runs up the steps. He looks around the arena before grabbing the top rope and leaping up and onto the turn buckle. )
Rise, again we will rise!
( Angel rips the belt off and raises it above his head in his right hand as the chorus kicks in. He jumps off the top rope and struts to the center of the ring stretching his arms out in either direction with the World Title still in his right hand, his head bowed as the lights come back and the music fades. Xander stands by the corner where Angel entered the ring. )}
{The start of "I came to play" By Downstait comes over the PA, the lights dim down as strobe lights follow the first few seconds before the guitar riff explodes, then "The American Nightmare" Alex Jones emerges in a shirt sleeveless orange vest with a hood covering his facial features and black tracksuit pants, he makes his way down to the ring and leaps up onto the ring apron he climbs between the ropes and flips his hood back before removing the vest and pants}
Eric Hardy: You can feel the tension levels rising in here, these fans are on their feet, ready for this thing to start.
Kelly Knite: This is more like a pay per view main event and these fans know it, lets stop making them wait and get on with it!
{The match kicks off with all three wrestlers wasting no time in starting the action. Jones charges right at Angel and leaps into the air with a spinning heel kick that Angel runs under. Angel hits the ropes and comes back at Jones but takes a drop toe hold from Awesome who slides into view. As Angel's face hits the mat, Jones leaps into the air and puts a leg drop to the back of his head. Angel holds his face in pain from the attacks as he rolls away and out of the ring. Awesome spins back to his feet just as Phoenix gets to his, the two reach out and grab each other in a grabble, Awesome takes Alex's arm and spins around into a hammer lock. Jones throws his opposite elbow back and catches Steve in the face driving him back where from the outside Angel takes him by the legs and pulls them out from under him, sending Steve flit to his face. Jones sees it, where he steps onto Steve's back, grabs the top rope and then leaps out of the ring right on top of Angel with the springboard crossbody!}
Eric Hardy: What a move by The Phoenix!
Kelly Knite: Wow, these three are not going to take it slow are they? They just jumped right into the action.
Eric Hardy: It's their natures.
{Jones takes Angel by the head and pulls him to his feet where he lifts him into a scoop, but Angel worms out of it and lands behind Jones. Angel wraps his arms around Jones's waist and hits a German suplex onto the ring mats! The fans at ringside jump to their feet at he sight. Angel gets to his feet and looks down at AJ but doesn't see Steve standing on the apron. Steve shoats at him and when he does, Steve leaps off for a jumping DDT, but is caught mid air by Angel! Angel runs forward and slams Steve back first into the ring post! Angel holds, turns throws Steve into the air and then powerbombs him straight to the mats!}
Kelly Knite: No!
Eric Hardy: Angel may have just broken Awesome in half....
Kelly Knite: Man... Steven has gotta be in a terrible amount of pain.
{Angel slides back into the ring, where he stands over his working looking down as the ref begins counting his opponents out, Angel smirks. Jones grabs the ring steps and pulls himself back to his feet, he slides into the ring to break the count where Angel begins bringing the boots to his back. He grabs Jones by the head, pulls him up and Irish whips him across the ring. Angel comes rushing after him for a clothesline but Jones spins around him and Angel crashes chest first into the turnbuckles. Awesome crawls back into the ring as Jones takes Angel and puts him sitting on the top rope. Jones climbs up after him and stands on the top rope with his arms wrapped around him, Awesome comes up under Jones, and lifts him as Jones lifts Angel and hits a double stacked german suplex! The fans leap to their feet cheering their heads off now!}
Eric Hardy: My gawd did you see that!? Did you see that!?
Kelly Knite: You've gotta be kidding me... what a move....
Eric Hardy: That was amazing....
{Jones turns over and crawls over to Angel and throws himself on his chest. 1....2... but Aweosme is there to shove Jones off. Jones and Awesome stand up, Awesome goes to grab AJ but takes the pele kick! Jones stands back and waits as Awesome tries to push himself up and takes an Ajguiri as he gets to his feet!. AJ takes Steve by the legs and locks in the Sharpshooter! AJ has it locked in, in the middle of the ring and Steve can't seem to escape.}
Eric Hardy: This could be it here!
Kelly Knite: No Steven, you gotta escape!
{Steve refuses to tap out, and AJ just locks the move in harder as Steve attempts to get out. Steve pulls himself towards the ropes and reaches out to grab them but AJ just walks tot he center of the ring! Steve has to do something else as he pushes up off the mat and manages to use every bit of strength to throw AJ off of him now!}
Kelly Knite: Yes, Steve did it!
Eric Hardy: Yes, but he doesn't look in good shape after that... he was in that move way too long.
{Angel gets back to his feet, he sees his opponants attempting to make their way back to their feet. He climbs out of the ring onto the apron and stands there. Phoenix makes his way back to his feet, and Angel leaps into the ring with the Revelations! Angel stands up and turns Phoenix over, he's about to cover him when suddenly he's spun around and lifted onto Awesome's shoulders and SteveKO! Awesome crumbles flat to his face after hitting the move, unable to take advantage of it. }
Eric Hardy: All three men are down! What a move!
Kelly Knite: Come on Steve get up! You can do it!
Angel and AJ are breathing heavy on the mat as Awesome starts pulling himself up using the ropes. He gets about halfway up when he notices Hardcore Harry come running down the ramp.
Eric Hardy: Hardcore Harry!? What in the hell is he doing out here?
Kelly Knite: I don’t know. Maybe he wants more of Steve! Look out Steve!
Hardcore Harry slides into the ring runs across it towards Steve and then slides out the other side of the ring. Awesome is yelling at him to bring it and Harry is just laughing. Harry looks like he is about to jump back into the ring when suddenly he turns around and grabs Kelly Knite by the hair! She screams and Harry looks up at Steve and smiles a twisted grin.
Eric Hardy: Hey! You let her go!
Hardy tries to say something but Harry just pie faces him down to the ground. Awesome seems like he is about to start climbing out of the ring when suddenly AJ Phoenix begins to stir and explodes from out of nowhere and wraps Steve up in a school boy.
1.….2.…..3!
AJ picks up the victory but Awesome has no time to congratulate his friend as he slides out of the ring and chases after Hardcore Harry who has Kelly Knite in his clutches. Awesome speeds up the ramp and through the back.
AJ and Angel have a quick stare down as Steve Awesome takes off. AJ holds out his hand and Angel thinks of taking it when suddenly all the lights in the arena go out at once.
Eric Hardy: The hell is going on now?
Kelly Knite: I have no idea Eric.
Eric Hardy: Somebody forget to pay the electric bill?
Screams are heard in the darkness when suddenly the lights come back on, AJ is out of the ring, Angel is still in it as is....
Eric Hardy: IT'S HOMELESS HAROLD!!! HE'S BACK!!!!
Angel turns around slowly and comes face to face with the blood soaked mask of Homeless Harold. Homeless Harold tilts his head slightly as Angel rears back but Harold grabs him around the throat and Angel tries to pry the thick fingers of Harold off of his throat.
Kelly Knite: Angel should of known better than to mess with him. Now he's pushed Gib off the deep end and the MONSTER HAS RETURNED!
From behind, Xander slides into the ring with a steel chair and cracks Harold over the back. Harold shoves Angel down and whips around faster than you would think he could move and punches the steel chair with his big right hand and sends that mother slamming into the face of Xander. Angel rolls out of the ring while the monster is distracted.
Eric Hardy: Homeless Harold is back and he just took out his own son with that massive right hand.
Kelly Knite: This is what happens when you tempt fate.
Homeless Harold turns back and locks eyes with the world champion, he reaches his hand out for a microphone, his heavy breathing is the only sound he makes for ten full seconds.
Homeless Harold:..... Next week.... The Son pays for the sins of the Father....
Homeless Harold drops the mic and looks down at his now bloody sun as the World Champion, Angel, backs up the ramp.
Steve Awesome: Where’s Harry!? Anyone seen Harry!?
Somme crew members point toward the parking lot and Awesome runs out there and is surprised to find Kole Kaos standing alone in the parking lot.
Kole Kaos: Funny thing about loop holes……
Awesome keeps one eye on Kole as he scans the lot for any sign of Kelly.
Kole Kaos:….everybody gets all surprised when I jump through them.
Steve Awesome: Just save the games Kole….where is Kelly?
Kole laughs an evil laugh.
Kole Kaos: Oh Kelly? I’m sure she’s hanging around here somewhere.
A scream is herd coming from on top of a semi! Harry has his hand wrapped around her throat and is keeping her dangerously close to the edge.
Steve Awesome: Just give her back Kole….and nobody gets hurt.
This gets another laugh out of Kole.
Kole Kaos: Oh really? You touch me and Harry will drop her. Do you really want that on your conscious?”
Awesome stays silent.
Kole Kaos: “That’s what I thought. Now I believe the line goes…..”Give ME what I want and nobody gets hurt.” Give me a match Steve. Any type of match I want, at Sovereign.”
Steve Awesome: Fine! You got your match Kole. Anything you want! Now just let her go!
Kole Kaos snaps his fingers and Harry reluctantly lets her go and starts climbing down the side.
Kole Kaos: Ahhhh…..your so easy to predict Steve. You saved the damsel in distress…..now who is going to save you?”
Kole hits him with a cheap shot and keeps the punches coming. Awesome starts fighting back but that’s when Harry joins the fight. The two on one is too much for Steve and he soon finds himself hooked up for the Hellsmasher power bomb. Harry drops him hard on the concrete and that’s when Adam Knite storms the scene! Kole tells Harry to leave with him and they do as Adam runs to Kelly’s side, ignoring Steve's lifeless body in the process, and we fade to black on shot of Steve's face.
