Goth can be seen coming down the locker room area at the beginning of the show where he walks towards the locker room of Jason Stevens. He knocks on the door as the door opens and Carrie opens the door
Goth: Hi Carrie, how are you doing dear?
Carrie: Jason isn’t here, he….
Goth: That’s ok Carrie, just tell him that if he truly wishes to make a name out of himself and earn the opportunity to beat Matthew Toddi next week for the title? Then I reckon he makes sure that Mr. Stiles will not even make it to the ring tonight to make sure that if he beats Toddi next week. That nobody can make claims that Toddi was injured… you got me missy?
Carrie looks at Goth in shock, but then nods her head in approval
Goth: Good, now I’m out of here… but before I go…
Before Goth goes, he kisses Carrie on the cheek as he walks off, the camera moves past the shocked Carrie to see Jason Stevens nodding his head as if he understands what Goth wants
Vs.
Stormy Canyon: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is our Loser must leave the federation Match!!! The first wrestler to come down the aisle stands in at 6’1 and weighing in at 225 pounds!! He hails from Detroit, Michigan!!! Matthew Toddi!!!
Truth by Seether hits the PA system. Before Toddi walks out you hear the opening lines to the theme.
''If I gave you the truth would it keep you alive.
As the last word of the opening riff sounds, red and white fireworks come from above as Matthew Toddi walks through them. He walks down to the ringas he high-fives the audience. Once he gets to the ring he runs up and slides through the ropes. He gets up from the floor and walks to a turnbuckle and climbs up it. He then holds his hands above his head as the fans cheer. He then gets down and waits for the ref to ring the bell.
Stormy Canyon: And his opponent!! Standing in at….
Tex Martin: Whoa!! I got a message from backstage that Stiles apparently is being assaulted!!!
Duff Travers: That will show him!!!
The camera’s go backstage where we see Jason Stevens assault Stiles with a steel chair as he is blasting it across the back of Stiles. Officials are all circling Stevens as he is going nuts, we can see Goth standing a few feet away from it all and he is smiling as he is enjoying what he is seeing.
Goth: That’s enough Jason, take him to the medical room people. Stiles will not be fired. I’m sorry Toddi, but I could not have Stiles here ruin the fight between you and Stevens at thePPV So enjoy the win you got… next week there will be a match where you will feel The Sensation….
With that Goth walks away as the camera’s turn back to Toddi, who is looking on with a surprise on his face
Winner:
Though im closer to wrong an no further from right.
And now im covinced on the inside something's wrong with me.
Convinced on the inside.
Theres something wrong with ME!!''.
The scene comes back from adverts and we see a man in the ring, its D-Von David! He is dressed in his attire and he begins to speak.
D-Von: Hello, im D-Von David. A new man here in the AWA and to the wrestling buisness. Im a man that likes to work so im issuing an open challenge for next week after the PPV to anyone on the roster! If nobody comes out, I understand since you would probably be to scared to enter the ring with me. None of you know me but im beyond your imaginations, I'm better than you suspect. You will find out next week!
D-Von throws the microphone to the canvas, steps out of the ring and walks to the back.
Duff: This man expects people to want to wrestle him? Why would someone want to win over a jobber!
Tex: He is not a jobber, you haven't even seen him wrestle yet, I think he can be a champion one day!
The camera cuts to a man in the locker room sitting on a bench, the camera to his back. It appears as though he is sobbing. The camera zooms in and we can see the man is holding a picture of what appears to be a man in a sailors uniform. The man punches the locker in front of him, destroying the locking mechanism on the door. He wipes his eyes and stands up, turning around. We see it’s The Frogman. He’s clearly surprised to see the camera.
What the hell are you doing here? I guess you wanted to hear one last word from me about how I’m gonna put a hurtin on Glenn? Well get bent! Next time you want some info ask beforehand. You’re all lucky I don’t hit crew. Now get the hell out of here!
The Frogman shoves the camera to the side and storms out, blood dripping from the hand he punched the locker with. He appears to have forgot the picture on the bench. The camera zooms in on the upside down picture. ‘P.O. Matt “Axe” Axelson 2005. RIP’ is all it says on the back of the picture. The camera switches to ringside.
Vs.
Stormy: This match is set for one fall. Introducing first, from the Georgian Backwoods. Weighing in at 235 pounds, the TV Champion, ‘Reverend’ Chris Shipman!!!
The arena lights go out except for one spotlight on the entranceway at the curtains. I huge church choir emerges and lines the alleyway. They begin to sing the opening of Who I Am by Casting Crowns. After the opening the Reverend Chris Shipman emerges holding a bible and cross high in the air and seemingly blesses the crowd on his way to the ring. He gets in the ring sets the bible and cross down in the middle of the ring. He begins praying before derobing in his wrestling attire as the lights come back on and the choir stops singing and exits the arena.
Tex: Can this man beat Jason Stevens, lets find out!
Duff: Ae you kidding me? He is the TV champ, Stevens wont be able to lay a finger on him!
Stormy: His opponent, from Las Vegas, Nevada, weighing in at 175 pounds, Jason ‘The sensation’ Stevens!!!
The opening riff for "Beyond The Pale" is herd over the PA, as soon as the baseline kicks in Jason emerges from the back with his mentor Steve Ramone following him close behind alongside Carrie, the crowd are mixed in there reaction to the trio as whilst they hate Jason they love Steve, Jason rolls into the ring and bounces of the ropes as Steve and Carrie take up positions at ringside.
Tex: Next week, this man faces Toddi for the International title. If he can beat Shipman, he will be able to beat Toddi.
Duff: I don’t think Stevens will be able to. He has had loads of title opportunities with them all failing.
The two men circle in the ring as the referee calls the bell. They lock up and the taller Shipman gets the power advantage pushing him into the corner. He starts punching Stevens as he is trapped within the turnbuckle space and Shipman. The referee breaks them up and Jason runs at Shipman but Shipman tosses him over his shoulder.
Tex: A careless error by Stevens there.
Duff: Those kind of mistakes lose matches like this.
Shipman walks to Jason and Jason punches him several times in the gut. Jason then locks in the abdominal stretch and holds the ropes behind him to deliver more pain to Shipman. The referee sees and tells Jason to let go. Shipman then takes advantage and back-kicks Jason in the gut, turns and hits a DDT! He goes for the cover, 1…2…Kickout!
Tex: That was good of the referee to notice Jason’s dirty tactics!
Duff: I hate it when the referee gets to involved, he should leave then to it.
Shipman gets up and picks Jason up. He runs off the ropes , runs at Jason and he jumps over Shipman. They both come off opposite ropes and collide with clotheslines! Jason is getting to his feet and climbs to the top turnbuckle. Shipman starts tp get up as Stevens jumps off the ropes and delivers a missle dropkick! He goes for the cover, 1…2…Kickout!
Tex: That was close.
Duff: Jason just needs to keep the good wrestling up.
Jason goes back up to the top turnbuckle. Jumps for the moonsault but Shipman gets the knees up! Jason holds his stomach in pain. Shipman gets up and stomps on Jason several times before grabbing the legs, twisting him over for a boston crab. Jason struggles but finds a way to get to the ropes.
Tex: A good escape for the Sensation.
Duff: He is doing a good job so far against the TV chamion.
They both get up, Jason runs at Shipman but he turns and throws Stevens into the turnbuckles. Shipman steps up and pulls Stevens up and throws him to the ground with a top rope Lord’s Touch!!! Shipman goes for the pin, 1…2…3!!!
Tex: Jason couldn’t handle it!
Duff: I knew he couldnt
Stormy: Heres your winner, ‘The reverend’Chris Shipman!!!!!
Winner:
The scene switches to the back where we see Big Bad Casey. He is seen walking around the backstage area getting ready for his best 2 out of 3 falls match with Bulldog Bill Barnhart. He sees the camera and gives a sinister looking smirk.
Hey Bill, I hope you are ready to go through hell tonight. I will put you through more pain than you have ever felt before. You think that I will take you lightly? I don’t take you lightly because I know what you bring to the table and will expect it.
Casey then decides to take a drink of Gatorade. After a moment, when he has quenched his thirst, he continues.
Bill, you are nothing but a loser who likes to make excuses for why he lost. You should just admit that the better man beat you, and I will prove it once again. You are a sorry excuse for a wrestler, and only God knows why you are in the AWA Hall of Fame.
Then the scene goes to the dressing room of Bill Barnhart where we see him dressed in his wrestling attire ready to take on, and defeat, Big Bad Casey. We notice Bill is reading a Bible which we have not seen before. Bill looks up into the camera to tell us what he is reading.
I am sure you are wondering why I am reading the Bible right? No, I haven't turned religious as "Reverend" Chris Shipman has done. I am reading one of my favorite stories from the Bible. It is where the Israelites were battling the Philistines which was a constant occurrence back them. The Philistines had a giant of a fighter by the name of Goliath. He stood over 8 feet tall and everyone was afraid of him. Goliath taunted the Israelites and when he yelled at them his booming voice made the ground shake and the trees rattle. None of the Israelite warriors wanted to go up against Goliath because he always won because he was such a huge man.
The young lad David was sent to the site of the battle to bring food and supplies. When he saw Goliath standing there taunting the Israelites he couldn't believe that nobody would go and fight the giant. So David boldly stepped forward and took him on. No, David didn't go up against Goliath with weapons and dozens of people to help him, me picked up a few small stones and brought his slingshot with him. When David approached the Giant of Goliath the big man laughed at the little man and asked "AM I A DOG THAT YOU COME AFTER ME WITH A BOY AND A SLINGSHOT?"
What happened next was epic. As Goliath charged David to kill him, David loaded his slingshot with one small stone and he let the stone fly. It hit Goliath between the eyes and the Giant was defeated. David didn't need help from others to defeat a man over twice his size, he only needed his intelligence and his natural abilities.
Bill stops talking and looks into the camera as the cameraman gets an extreme closeup of Bill's face.
Well, Casey, did you get the story? Did you understand that David, like me, doesn't need assistance to defeat you? Remember that you had Dmitri to help you defeat me in one match, then you hired the Blood Brothers to help you defeat me in another match. But what about our third match we had? You had no help and you lost. So, Casey, provided you keep to the rules of our match tonight, which is Standard Rules, then you will lose, just as Goliath lost to David. You simply cannot defeat me unless you cheat and have others help you beat me down.
Bill is done with his comments. He closes his Bible and tosses it on the bed. He then walks out the dressing room and heads down the hallway to get ready for his entrance for his match.
We now cut to ringside as the announcer speaks out to kick things off
Vs.
Stormy Canyon: The following contest is a best 2 out of 3 falls match where the only way to win is to score two falls first, introducing from Nashua NH.... first he is BIIIIG BAAD CAAAASEY!
As "Power and the Glory" by Astral Doors hits the PA system, Big Bad Casey hits the stage and he walks to the ring, he goes through the different karate stances before entering the ring
Tex Martin: Casey on his way to the ring here, he looks confident that he can get Bill down in this match
Duff Travers: He may have the weight advantage but Bill has the experience Tex, this should be a good one
Stormy Canyon: ….and his opponent weighing in at 240lbs from Oakland, CA he is BIIIIIL BAAAAARNHART!!!
DON'T WORRY...BE HAPPY by Bobby McFerrin hits the speakers. Bill walks confidently along the entrance walkway and under the TRON. As he walks under the TRON, pink and white pyros erupt causing a cascade of pink sparks to spill down on the entrance walkway around Bill, he then stops at the landing at the top of the entrance ramp to play the crowd with a huge smile on his face. He then takes off with a quick pace to the ring. When Bill arrives at the ring he climbs the ring steps, walks along the ring apron, and then ducks through the ropes into the ring. Bill walks around the ring to acknowledge all the people in the crowd and he maintains his huge smile all the time. Bill then takes up residence in a corner looking across at Big Bad Casey who is staring right back at him.
Tex Martin: These guys are ready to kick this match off
Duff Travers: So here we go!
Barnhart comes right out the gate with right hands to the bigger man, once, twice, three times with the big hands knocking Casey back a few feet, Barnhart runs back to the ropes and runs at Casey only to meet a big boot for his troubles, Barnhart gets back to his feet a little worse off for it, Casey grabs Barnhart and pushes him back into the corner, Casey takes a few steps back then charges at Bill looking to squash him but the Bulldog moves out the way as Casey just runs straight into the turn-buckles chest first, Bill smashes Big Bad Casey over the back of the head with his forearm, then another forcing him onto his knees, Barnhart then tries to smash his knee into Casey's face but the bigger man grabs the knee of the Bulldog and then swipes the other leg out from under him letting fall to the canvas
Casey climbs back to his feet and drags Bill to his too, Barnhart is then clutched into a bear hug by the larger athlete, squeezing the life out of the Bulldog, Bill tries to punch his way out but Casey holds the hug on tighter as Bill begins to fade away, the referee begins to check on Barnhart lifting his arm up once and it drops... he lifts it up a second time and his arm drops again, the referee lifts Bills arm up a third time....
Duff Travers: Casey with the big weight advantage here but Barnhart's heart will not let that get in his way
and Duff was right as Bill keeps his arm up and begins to elbow the side of Casey's head, time and time again until Casey releases the hold, Bill quickly knees Casey's gut then sends a big right hand to the forehead of the bigger man who begins to rock, Bill runs to the ropes and hits a big clothesline this time sending Big Bad Casey to the ground!
Tex Martin: Casey is down and Barnhart is back in control now
Bill then quickly grabs the ankle lock onto the ankle of Big Bad Casey that puts him in quite some pain, his face showing the agony as he tries to get to the rope but he can't, he tries to turn over and uses his other leg to boot Bill back, with the hold broken Casey stands to his feet, Bill runs right at Casey and gets a right hand rocking Bill Barnhart backwards, Casey goes for another right but Bill blocks it, Bill slaps Casey in the face which doesn't go down too well!
Tex Martin: Oh man what a move by the veteran getting under his skin with that slap
Bill Barnhart sees Casey who charges at him in an angered state, Bill boots him in the gut, and pulls him in ready for the pile driver... Bill taunts for it, looking to get the first fall, positioning his opponents head in between his legs, Bill takes a deep breath and attempts to lift his enemy up for the pile driver but can't quite do it, instead Casey counters by back dropping his opponent onto the floor, Big Bad Casey quickly drops to the floor and catches Bill out by locking in his big submission, SIN CITY!
Duff Travers: he has the Sin City locked in! Will Barnhart tap?
Bill tries to power his way out but to no avail against the big man, Barnhart tries to slowly drag his way to the ropes but is running low on energy, the submission is draining the life right out of him, Barnhart is slipping away so he taps out rather than passing out, his hand his the canvas three times and after a few more seconds Casey finally releases the hold
Stormy Canyon: The winner of the first fall, by submission, BIG BAD CAAAAAASEY!!!
Duff Travers: Casey with the big advantage now
Tex Martin: Barnhart needs to score a pinfall quick or he might as well call it a night here folks
Casey stands to his feet, raising his arms, celebrating at the 1 – 0 advantage but he is unaware that Bill Barnhart is recovering, slowly getting too his feet behind Casey, Bill creeps up behind Casey and grabs a sleeper hold on him from behind, Casey suddenly goes from celebration to panic as Barnhart holds the sleeper hold on tight forcing his opponent to his knees, Casey is struggling to catch his breath all the while the Bulldog seems to have turned things around, not for long however as Casey has one last surge of strength, standing to his feet, Bill jumps on the back of Casey putting all his weight on the big man trying to hold him down but that backfires on Bill as Casey falls onto his back crushing Bill first, the two men are down as the referee begins to count 1...... 2...... 3...... 4.... as BBC begins to slowly get to his knees.... 5.... 6.... Barnhart is using the ropes to climb to his feet ever so slowly as the referee counts 7..... 8.... Casey stands to his feet finally at the count of 9 Bill is up as well, the two face each other in the centre of the ring once more
Bill stamps on the foot of BBC, knees him in the gut before he grabs the head of the big athlete and hits a big time DDT! Bulldog goes for the cover.... ONE..... TWO..... no kick out! Barnhart tries to pick up Casey but gets a massive right fist to his forehead, a big amount of force behind the punch knocking Bulldog goes down hard, Casey drags himself over for the cover, referee is in..... ONE...... TWO..... THR.... NO! Another kick out. BBC stands to his feet and shouts out loud and taunts for a choke slam, he waits as Bill slowly gets back to his feet, turns around to get a hand around his throat, ready to be sent to hell, Casey is just about to lift up when Bill boots him in the gut....
Duff Travers: NO! He countered out of the choke-slam into the PILEDRIVER!
Bill lifts Casey up and drops him with all his weight right onto his head, Bill rolls Casey onto his back slowly and drapes his arm over for the cover, the referee comes in for the cover... ONE..... TWO..... THREE!
Stormy Canyon: The winner of the second fall, by pinfall, BIIIIIIIILL BAAAAARNHART!!!
Bill grabs the ropes and stands up to his feet, resting in the corner with the turn-buckles as the crowd cheers loudly at the efforts of both men so far Bill breathes in catching his breath as Casey stirs and uses the ropes himself to climb up this time, as Casey stands to his feet, Bill gets prepared for the final fall to start, Casey turns around and the two meet in the middle of the ring and lock up with a collar and elbow tie up, Bill begins to win but Casey uses his strength to push back the veteran into the corner, BBC slaps Barnhart on the chest not once but twice sending echoes through out the arena, you can see the pain on his face, Casey goes for another but Bill ducks out the way, Bill goes behind his opponent and pulls him down with a roll up from behind ONE...... TWO.... THRE..... NO! Another kick out!
Duff Travers: These guys have thrown everything at one another but where does it all end, neither of these guys can be disappointed with the result as they are giving one hell of a match for these fans but in the end only one of these guys can come out on top
Both men stand to their feet and begin to exchange blows back and forth with right hands, the fight really escalate more, the crowd on their feet as Casey blocks the final right hand from Bill, grabs him around the throat before sending him down with the CHOKESLAM! Bill looks out, Casey drops for the cover.... ONE..... TWO.... NO! Casey can't believe it, he stands up and taunts, raising his fist into the air, signalling for his “power up” punch finisher, Bill doesn't see him standing there behind him as he slowly gets to his feet, Bill turns and Casey swings....
BUT Bulldog ducks it, he now behind Casey quickly leaps with a big time BULLDOG! Casey crashes face first after that one, Bill rolls him over onto his shoulders ONE.... TWO...... STILL NO! Another kick out. Bill can't believe it now, as he drags Casey back to his feet, the crowd really into this one determined to end this one as he pulls Casey up, putting his head between his legs, he sucks it up, somehow lifting Casey up and quickly planting him down with a huge POWERBOMB!! the crowd explodes as Bulldog covers, the referee is down ONE.... TWO..... THREEE!!!
Stormy Canyon: The winner of the third fall, by pinfall, and the overall winner of the match!!!
Tex Martin: One hell of a match there folks
Bill is helped to his feet by the referee as Casey lays out cold, Barnhart raises his hand as the bell signals the end of the match, Bill holds the back of his head in pain as he limps out of the ring and begins walking up the ramp
Duff Travers: I couldn't agree with you more, great match but in the end only one could walk out of this a winner and tonight it was just Bills night
Tex Martin: These guys gave their all and this is not the end of our show folks as we still have more great matches to come! Stay tuned!
Casey has stired and begins to get to his feet as Casey sees Bill standing at the top of the ramp, holding his head with one hand but raising the other in victory, a grin on his face as we cut to the next segment
Winner:
We cut to ringside as we prepare for another match but suddenly the sound of AC/DC crashes over the PA system as “You Shook Me All Night Long” kicks in none other than the Monster of the asylum heads down to ringside, the crowd cheering at the sight of the wrestling machine, in his wrestling gear, he strides up the steps to ringside and climbs in the squared circle, grabbing a microphone as his music begins to die down slowly, the crowd cheers louder as he waits for them to settle down, grinning as they slowly begin to quiet
Chaos: Damn what a reception and it is good to be back in my home state of Florida!
The crowd bursts into cheers for the cheap pop Chaos continues on
Chaos: Tonight I go one on one with Mason Storm in what should be one hell of a match and there is no doubt who ever walks out the winner that the person deserves that win, we both want it bad but in the end only one can leave with their hands raised and believe me folks that will be me once again!
Chants of “Chaos! Chaos! Chaos” break out making that grin on his face grow even larger, the chants slow down as he lifts the microphone back to his lips
Chaos: However that is not why I am out here, you see I just wanted to remind our Universal champion that twice in the last two weeks I have gotten the better hand over him, twice I have gotten him at his own game, I made him tap out in the middle of this ring live in front of the whole world and then last week we won a tag team contest and when it was all said and done..... we both knew we could attack one another, hell we mentioned it all week... and I wasn't going to wait around for him to stab me in the back with a fork....
Chaos: So I struck first and planted him face first with the Annihilator Slam and left him laying, just because this week we aren't in the ring together, don't think you are rid of me.... I am coming for you and I am coming for your title and when I do, its lights out on your title reign after all Hank... you are looking at the best wrestling in the industry today and when you mess with the best....
The crowd chants back “You FALL like the rest!!” loudly as the Monster nods
Chaos: Exactly... I'll see you real soon Hank!
As the crowd cheers AC/DC hits the PA system once more, Chaos drops the microphone and exits the ring to the back
Duff: Strong words from the Monster there Tex!
Tex: He is putting the champ on notice and If I were Hank, I'd be watching my back right now
Vampiria's Legacy in Blood hits as the arena goes black and the Titan Tron slowly starts to drip blood until the name of Dmitri appears. Dmitri slowly walks out to the ring wearing a referee’s uniform. Some of the people near the wrestler ramp throw garbage at him, but Dmitri doesn’t care. He simply keeps going, climbs up onto the apron and slips in between the ropes. He cracks his knuckles and rolls his head, ready to get down to business.
Stormy: Ladies and gentlemen, your special guest referee for this next match…Dmiiiiitriiii!!!
Tex: This should be interesting Duff. I never thought Dmitri would be a special guest referee and have authority. This is a bad situation, both for Mason and Chaos.
Duff: Especially for Mason. Dmitri seems to have keyed in on him.
Tex: We’ll see what goes down I guess.
The lights in the arena go dark and suddenly AC/DC "You Shook Me All Night Long" hits over the PA and the lights from the stage burst into life. As the lyrics quickly build to the chorus, Chaos makes his way out onto the stage. He raises his hands into the air as a barrage of pyro shoots upwards from the stage sending the crowd into a frenzy. Chaos continues to walk down to the ring and up the stairs, climbs into the ring and jumps to the second rope, raising his hands once more as another set of pyro shoots down from the arena roof behind Chaos. He jumps down as the music fades and he is ready to get down to business!
Chaos looks at Dmitri as Stormy Canyon begins her announcements for the match.
Vs.
Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Already in the ring from Orlando, Florida, weighing in at 275 pounds….CHAAAAAOOOOOOS!!!
The crowd cheers for Chaos as he raises his hands into the air one more time before the lights dim to darkness as “Bring Me To Life” by Evanescence begins to erupt in the arena. The crowd pops in anticipation as the ramp way begins to fill up with a foggy mist and Mason Storm begins to strobe across the big screen. Arms fly in the air as his theme climaxes. When the lightning pyro strikes down from the rafters, Mason begins to walk out in his traditional ring attire. He stands there watching the fans for a short moment and walks down to the ring. He steps through the ropes into the squared circle and gazes out into the darkness. The lights begin to recover now as Chaos just looks over at Mason for a brief moment. Mason looks Chaos’s way but quickly pays more attention to the guest referee, keeping his eye on him and making sure he won’t be up to any of his tricks.
Stormy: And Chaos’s opponent, weighing in at 258 pounds….MASOOOON STOOOOOOORM!
The crowd again cheers and pops loud for Mason. Chaos knows that he’s facing a respected wrestler, just like himself. Chaos reaches his hand out towards Mason and Mason shakes it. This garnishes another cheer as Dmitri calls for the bell immediately, disliking the display of sportsmanship.
Tex: Each other won’t be the problem. The referee concerns me…
Duff: I should throw you in that ring against Dmitri. Then I’d have a job all to myself!
Chaos and Mason both size one another up now and both go in for the kill at the same time. They match up pretty even, but Mason is able to gain the upper hand. He suddenly rakes the back of Chaos, which frees it up for Mason to latch on to Chaos and lift him up. He delivers a simple German suplex. Chaos struggles but only takes 1 suplex before he’s able to wriggle out of the clutches of Mason. Chaos quickly gets to his feet, as does Mason.
Tex: Chaos showing his toughness. He took that suplex and he’s right back up.
Duff: He’s a tough man. Hank will find that out soon enough when Chaos comes for that Universal Title.
Chaos reaches out and goes to grab Mason by the arm. Mason allows him to do so, but reverses Chaos’s Irish Whip attempt. Chaos’s back ends up pounding the turnbuckle in the corner. Mason winds up and runs at Chaos, hitting the splash in the corner. Dmitri meanwhile lounges in one of the corners, not looking to do his job. He just follows Mason’s every move, seemingly scouting him…
Tex: Pfft, we may as well get a better referee out here…
Duff: So far he’s done his job. There hasn’t been a pinfall attempt yet Tex. So leave poor Dmitri alone!
Tex: I don’t trust him. That’s all I’m saying.
Mason pulls Chaos out of the corner and flapjacks him to the canvas, now going for the first pinning attempt of the match. Dmitri goes down, however counts very slow…
Tex: It’s as if Mason expected antics like this from Dmitri. And it’s like I’ve been saying.
Mason stays on Chaos and goes to lock in a crossface submission. Chaos however doesn’t allow it to be fully applied as he battles and battles, before turning Mason over and delivering several blows to the back of Mason’s head. Mason tries to cover up as Dmitri just looks on, a bit happier now that Mason’s on the ropes.
Tex: Mason’s not going to get a fair shake here, and he knows it.
Duff: You worry too much…
Chaos now locks in a sleeper hold and really wrenches it in. Mason however isn’t fading. This is when Dmitri sees his opportunity. He suddenly hits Mason with a running kick to the face.
Tex: Here we go! I KNEW his dark colors would show!
Duff: FINALLY! Some REAL action instead of this lame mat wrestling!
Tex: Can someone send an unbiased referee out here please?
Mason feels the kick to the face. Chaos meanwhile gets up, looks over at Dmitri, then looks down at Mason, then back over to Dmitri. Chaos scratches his head but then continues in on his opponent. He scoops up Mason and hits a belly-to-belly suplex. Chaos doesn’t go for the pin just yet but instead gets Mason with a sidewalk slam. He then hooks Mason’s legs upward for the fall.
Stormy: Per the NEW referee in this match, this match will continue!
Tex: Justice!
Dmitri looks down at Stormy, then over at Referee Hal Smith, then finally over at Mason. Chaos gets to Mason first and goes to lift him up for the Annihilator Slam. Mason however counters out of it, slips down Chaos’s back and locks in his deathlock submission as the crowd cheers for both Chaos and Mason’s antics!
Tex: This will be interesting to see how this turns out. Will Chaos tap out?
Duff: NO! It’s not supposed to be like this!
Dmitri is getting angrier and angrier in the ring as Referee Hal takes command of refereeing the match. Finally Dmitri snaps and as Chaos is about to tap, Dmitri runs at Mason and absolutely PULVERIZES Mason in the face with a big boot! The bell at ringside rings as the referee calls for the end of the match.
Stormy: Ladies and gentlemen, due to Dmitri’s interference, your winner of this match due to a disqualification…Masooooon Stoooooorm!!!
Duff: Heh, too bad he doesn’t look like a winner. Neither of these guys do…
Tex: And Dmitri did what he wanted to do. Sad and pathetic really…
Duff: Gee, that describes you to a tee Tex! But moving on. We still have more action to come here tonight, including Dmitri in the main event against Hank Henry!
Winner:
1………
Chaos easily kicks out, but Mason pays it no mind.
Immediately Dmitri comes over and starts a pinfall count.
1!
2!
Mason barely kicks out for Dmitri’s hand touches the mat for the third time. Dmitri however calls for the bell, just as Referee “Honest” Hal Smith runs down the wrestler rampway from the backstage area. He yells to the timekeeper and to Stormy that the match will continue. Stormy makes the announcement official.
No music plays as Dmitri holds his arms up in the air. Both Chaos and Mason are checked on by the referee as the scene fades backstage. Glenn Frank can be seen warming up and preparing for his match with Josh Stevens. He looks to the camera and addresses his opponent one last time before their match.
Frank: Stevens, you don’t know what you’re getting yourself into. Once our match is over and I am declared the victor you will see why the wrestling ring is no place for a frog like you. When will it sink in, Frog? I’m better than you, and here in a few minutes, I’m going to prove it.
Frank walks away towards the ring as the scene fades to ringside.
Glenn Frank vs. Josh Stevens
Stormy: This next match is set for one fall and is contested under harcore rules. Introducing first, from New Mexico, weighing in at 230, Glenn Frank!!!
The arena goes pitch black as red strobe lights fill the arena. The Intro to "Bodies" by Drowning Pool hits the PA, and out walks Glenn Frank. He has a serious look on his face, as he waits a moment, taking in everything at once. A large flash and explosion happens and Glenn comes to life in a burst of unseen energy as he makes his way down to the ring. He slides under the bottom rope and takes a deep breath before looking up to the Titan-tron as he waits for his opponent to show.
Tex: So far, this man has been impressive!
Duff: But will he be able to beat the debuting Josh Stevens.
Stormy: Introducing his opponent, from Galveston, Texas, weighing in at 220, ''The Frogman'' Josh Stevens!!!
Indestructible by Disturbed hits the PA and fog begins rolling out of the entrance to the arena as "The Frogman" Josh Stevens makes his way out. He stands at the top of the ramp looking around, a cold demeanor on his face. The reflection of a thousand fans can be seen in his pitch black sun glasses. Suddenly a loud blast goes off behind him and sparks begin flying into the air. Towering above the camera crew, he slowly, methodically, makes his way to the ring.
Tex: This should be a close fight, both around the same hight and weight.
Duff: Yes, but this is hardcore, it doesnt matter!
The referee calls for the bell as the two men in the ring, Glenn and Josh stare at each other. The bell rings and both men have the same idea, they run backwards and slide out of the ring, grab a chair and slide back in and swing the chairs. They connect with a huge clash as the drop the chairs and holds their hands within their arms in pain. Josh's hands heal quicker than Glenn's and he runs at him with a spear! He then picks up a chair and closes it on Glenn's leg. He jumps on the chair causing Glenn pain!
Tex: Josh is being very clever, taking out the leg of Glenn so he cant use the high risk moves that he is known for. He might not be able to stand let alone do high risk moves!
Duff: Thats the way to win, take out your opponents body parts 1 by 1!
Josh slides outside the ring again, goes under the ring and grabs a trash can full of kendo sticks and other things. He pushes it into the ring as he goes in as well and empties the trash can. He grabs the can and smacks it over the head of Glenn Frank as he tries to get up! He goes for a pin, 1...2..Kickout! Josh grabs Glenn by the hair and tries to pull him up but Glenn fights back by punching him several times in the head then a low blow. Josh drops to the canvas in pain.
Tex: That’s not right!
Duff: This is a hardcore match remember.
Glenn takes a kendo stick and smacks it as hard as he can over the back of Stevens until it breaks. He then picks Stevens up but he kicks Glenn in the gut and gets him in a Jacknife position, he points to the trash can and then lifts him up onto his shoulders but Glenn punches Stevens and pulls him down to plant him into the trash can head first!
Tex: Thats got to hurt!
Duff: No doubt.
Glenn slides out of the ring and gets a bottle of red liquid and throws it into the ring. He walks up the steps and enters the ring. He picks Josh up and enzuigiri’s him knocking him back down. He climbs to the top rope with a chair in his hand and jumps but Josh roles out of the way at the last second. Josh goes for a pin, 1…2…Kickout!
Tex: What a lucky dodge by Josh right there.
Duff: All he has to do now is keep himself motivated to win this match!
Stevens is looking for a weapon to use and he finds a black bag. He empties it and there are thousands of thumb tacks spread on the canvas. He continues looking for another weapon while Glenn is getting up. Glenn takes a sip of the red liquid, walks up to Stevens. Josh turns around with a barbed wire baseball bat in his hand and finds Frank in front of him. Frank gets a lighter and holds it to his mouth and spits the red flammable liquid at the face of Stevens as he tries to hit him with the bat. Glenn then smashes the bottle from which he got the liquid over his head busting him open. He then spears him into the tacks and turns it into a sharpshooter. Stevens taps out in pain!
Tex: What a win for Glenn Frank
Duff: it was awesome but I would have liked to see more of what the new kids got.
Stormy: Here is your winner Glenn Frank!!!!!
Glenn celebrates after his match and then walks down the ramp as the scene fades to an ad for the upcoming PPV.
WINNER: GLENN FRANK
Unholy cues up on the PA and the Mad Man Jacob Porter comes out. He’s wearing a staind and tattered Armani suit. A big grin is on his face and, The Fans are booing him. He just looks at them with disdain and laughs. He walks out into the center of the ring and grabs a mic from his back pocket.
Jacob: So it seems that the powers that be have been putting me in all these matches hoping to injure me so I can’t continue on my path to destroy the AWA. Now, Who would be able to bend the ear of the men in charge to do this? Who would be able to sway Goth and John Irons into placing me into these matches? I wonder. I really really wonder WHO could bat her little Nubian eyelashes and get whatever she wants around here. SIS, BRENDA, GIT YOUR ASS OUT HERE NOW.
Rude Boy by Rhianna begins on the pa and Brenda Porter walks out and stands at the end of the ramp. She’s seething and she reaches down and walks to the ring. Before she gets in the ring she takes off her shoes and earrings and hands them to an attendant.
Tex: Well Jacob Porter got what he wanted. Brenda is out here.
Duff: Yeah, but she just took off her shoes and earrings, that means ready to fight for any woman I’ve ever met.
Brenda gets in and she doesn’t hold back. She kicks her brother in law right in the balls. Jacob goes to hold his nuts and drops to his knees and then laughs and gets back up. He pushes Brenda into the corner and he begins to get closer and closer. He’s about to do something no man should do to a woman when “Seek and Destroy” begins to play. The fans go crazy as the Big Boss himself starts walking to the ring.
Irons: Hold it right there, Porter. You lay a finger on her and I will personally kick your ass ten ways from Sunday. You got beef? Then you come to me about it. How big of brass balls you must have for wanting to strike a woman in hatred. I suggest you back the hell down before this situation gets ugly son. Get the hell outta my ring!
John walks over to check on Brenda and see if she’s okay after his intimidation of Jacob. Jacob looks to the crowd and slides an iron bar from his sleeve. As John is distracted he cracks the Marine over his back with the bar sending the co owner of the AWA onto the ground. Jacob then begins to stomp on Irons. He picks the man up and then the lights go out. A red reticule shows up in the middle of the ring. Jacob drops Irons and looks around. The Titantron lights up with a big red F on a black background. Fantastic, Fabulous, Furious, Ferocious, all flash on the screen. The words begin to flash faster and faster until only the word Fearless remains on the Titantron is black letters on a red background.
Duff: It’s another red herring, There’s no wa
Pyros go off and standing in the shower of sparks is a figure. The figure wastes no time in revealing himself as The Man In Black comes running down to the ring. Jacob goes to stomp his brother as thinks he’s going to slide into the ring. Fang just jumps through the ropes and spears his insane brother and begins to wail on him. The crowd goes crazy. John Irons is getting up and Brenda is helping him. Jacob seems to get the upper hand for a second and whips Fang into the ring ropes. Fang wraps his arms around the ropes and as Jacob rushes in Fang hit’s the Fatal Shot.
Tex: OH MY GOD.
Fang grabs his brother and lifts him up on his shoulders. Jacob comes to due to the pain of the Torture Rack called the Cross of the Wolf. Fang then looks to Irons. Irons puts his thumb out and turns it upside down. Fang gets that trademark sneer on his face and performs the Full Metal Jacket. Jacob is out cold in the center of the ring. Fang walks over to Irons and the stare each other down.
Duff: This doesn’t look like it’s over quite yet.
Tex: Well we all know there’s no love lost between the Man In Black and John Irons. Fang did try to brainwash Irons, and Irons did screw Fang out of a title shot a few months back. This could get really ugly really quick.
The fans go crazy as John Irons and John Porter shake hands. Irons nods his head up and down and mouths “It’s good to have you back” Fang mouths “It’s good to be back” In the meantime Brenda has gotten Irons a new microphone.
Irons: I have to hand it to you Jon. There’s a reason why you were named Wrestler of the Year. Our differences can be put aside. But one thing I have to admit is that we put on one hell of a show for these fans. They gave us the ratings to take us to Cable TV’s #1 watched show. It is good to have you back, and maybe now you can show some of these new guys what it takes to be a legend in this business. I got big plans for you Porter. Starting next week, Big Plans are coming to the horizon for you.
Fang and Brenda begin to walk back to the backstage area. Meanwhile men in white jackets bring a stretcher to the ring side area. On the back of the jackets is Midvale Sanitarium. Fang just shakes his head as he looks back into the ring as the scene fades to commercial.
LEGACY IN BLOOD by Vampira hits the speakers as the lights in the arena go out and the arena goes dark. The TRON crackles to life and we see dripping blood on the screen until the name DMITRI shows up on the screen written in blood. Dmitri steps out from the backstage area, walks under the TRON, and then he stops at the landing at the top of the entrance ramp and he looks around at the crowd. The crowd seems equally split between support for Dmitri and a hatred for him as there is a mixture of cheers and boos. Dmitri heads down the ramp toward the ring ignoring the negative response from half the crowd. Dmitri walks over to the steps, walks up the steps, then he walks along the ring apron and he ducks through the ropes and into the ring. He walks to each side of the ring to stare down the fans on each side of the ring. Dmitri then backs into a corner to await the arrival of Hank Henry III.
TEX: I am not sure why so many people dislike Dmitri. He is here to take out Hank Henry III and we all know that Hank is a lying, cheating, fork-carrying, cheater of a wrestler!
DUFF: Your jealousy and bias really shows.
Vs.
STORMY CANYON: Here is our first participant in this Non-Title match, he is from Moscow, he stands tall at 6 feet 7 inches, and he weighs in at 275 pounds, please give a warm welcome to DMITRI!!!
The crowd again goes into a mixed reaction for Dmitri as he raises his hands in the air to acknowledge the crowd. We then hear ROLLING by Soul Coughing hit the speakers. We watch as Hank Henry III walks out from the backstage area. As he walks under the TRON we see pyros erupt and cascade sparks down around him on the entrance area. Hank continues to the entrance ramp and without hesitation he walks down the ramp and arrives at ringside. As Hank Henry walks around the ring he glares up at Dmitri in the ring and Dmitri stares back at him. Hank turns to the crowd and he gets a mostly negative reaction from him because of his cheating ways in the wrestling ring. Hank makes another walk around the ring and then he dives under the bottom rope into the ring and he quickly pops to his feet and he takes up residence in the corner opposite of where Dmitri is located.
TEX: Man I cannot stand Hank Henry III. I think it is a travesty of Wrestling to have a Universal Champion who is a major cheater and he admits it too!
DUFF: Hank Henry III is not a cheater Tex. He just uses that as a way to get the crowd riled up!
TEX: Oh, so you don't think that stabbing opponents with a fork and having Chaplin Graves attack his opponents is cheating? You obviously have a warped sense of reality!
STORMY CANYON: Here is our next participant in this Non-Title match, he hails from Ellis, New York, and he stands in at 6 feet 6 inches and 248 pounds, and he is the current Asylum Wrestling Alliance Universal Champion, please give a warm welcome to HANK HENRY III!!!
Once again the crowd reacts to the announcement of Hank Henry III with a mostly negative reaction. Once again Hank ignores the crowd and flips them off, and that only encourages them to be more rude and aggressive in their diss of Hank Henry. Referee Simon Jones walks to the middle of the ring and he calls Dmitri and Hank Henry III to him. Once the two wrestlers are standing near him, Referee Jones informs them that this will be a Standard Rules Match and that it is a Non-Title Match which means the Universal Title is not on the line. Jones further informs both wrestlers that he will not tolerate illegal moves or holds and that if either wrestler continues to violate the rules he will not hesitate to disqualify them and give the win to his opponent. Referee Jones asks Dmitri and Hank Henry III if they both understand how he is going to call this match and both indicate that they do. Simon Jones orders the two wrestlers to go to a corner to await the bell to start the match. As soon as both wrestlers are in their corners, Simon Jones walks over and tells the Timekeeper to ring the bell to start the match. The bell rings and this match is officially underway and the crowd is buzzing.
TEX: Gee, I wonder how long it will be before Hank Henry III pulls out a fork and stabs Dmitri with it? I will predict about three minutes tops.
DUFF: You are so biased Tex. You need to be unbiased and call the match as it happens.
Dmitri and Hank Henry III approach each other in the middle of the ring and immediately they lock up. They jockey for position and Dmitri maneuvers out of the lock up and he spins around behind Hank Henry and lifts him up and drops him in a belly-to-back suplex. He quickly goes for a pin on Hank but Referee Simon Jones can only get a one count before Hank Henry kicks out of the pin attempt. Both wrestlers get to their feet and in a surprise maneuver we see Hank Henry acknowledge the great maneuver by Dmitri. The crowd is buzzing as they are not used to this type of mutual respect behavior from Hank. The two wrestlers lock up again and this time it is Hank Henry who maneuvers out of the lock up. He spins around Dmitri and then he locks in a side headlock on Dmitri. He cinches up on the headlock as Dmitri tries to get out of the hold. While Dmitri is struggling we watch as Hank Henry runs across the ring and he bulldogs Dmitri's face into the mat. Hank gets up and he quickly drops an elbow into the lower back of Dmitri. He gets up and drops and elbow to the back of Dmitri a few more times and then he goes for the pin.
TEX: Darn, I was hoping that Hank Henry wouldn't remember that Dmitri had a previous back injury which kept him out of wrestling for some time.
DUFF: Maybe you are beginning to see that Hank Henry is a very intelligent wrestler who does his homework on his opponents.
Referee Simon Jones drops into position to make the count on the pin of Dmitri by Hank Henry. ONE...TWO...TH...and suddenly Jones stops the count and he taps Hank Henry on the shoulder. Hank looks up and demands to know what is going on. Referee Jones points to the ropes where we see that Dmitri was able to reach up and grab the bottom rope which calls for a break of the pin. Hank reluctantly gets up from the pin attempt and then as Dmitri is pulling himself up by the ropes Hank lands a knee into the lower back of Dmitri. Referee Jones is upset at Hank Henry landing a blow on Dmitri while he was tied up in the ropes so he gets into the face of Hank and reprimands him and threatens him with disqualification if he continues to violate the rules.
TEX: Hank Henry doesn't violate the rules you said. Hank Henry doesn't cheat you said. Hank Henry is a nice polite wrestler you said. Yeah, right!
DUFF: Shut up before I reach over and stab you with a fork!
Hank is upset that the Referee is reprimanding him and he is arguing that Dmitri was already standing up and did not have any part of his body through the ropes. Referee Jones reminds Hank that it is him who is officiating the match and his call stands. Hank is livid as he continues to violently argue with Referee Simon Jones. This distraction allows Dmitri to slip up behind Hank and he picks him up in his arms. Dmitri flips Hank around so his back is toward the mat, and he drops Hank Henry hard onto his knee. Hank yells out in pain when his lower back hits the knee of Dmitri. We see Dmitri flip Hank to his stomach on the mat and then he grabs the legs of Hank and locks him into a Boston Crab to take advantage of the drop to his knee earlier. Hank Henry is in pain as Dmitri leans back to increase the pressure on the lower back with the Boston Crab.
TEX: Last week we saw Bill Barnhart tap out when Glenn Frank put the Boston Crab on him so it is likely that Hank Henry III will tap out here.
DUFF: I believe it will take a lot more than a Boston Crab to put Hank Henry out of this game.
Hank Henry is in pain but he is not about to submit when Referee Simon Jones asks him. Jones has to back off and allow the match to continue but he keeps a close watch on Hank to see if he gets to the point where the Referee would need to stop the match to prevent serious injury. Dmitri yells at Referee Jones to ask Hank Henry if he will submit but Referee Jones informs him he already asked Hank and that he told him he will not submit under any circumstance. Dmitri is not buying that comment and he demands that Referee Jones ask Hank Henry III again if he wants to submit. Jones reluctantly asks Hank if he wants to submit and again Hank Henry refuses to give in. Dmitri, upset that he cannot get the submission on Hank Henry, releases the Boston Crab on him and he walks a few steps away to figure out his next tactic. Hank is relieved that Dmitri released the Boston Crab as he crawls into a corner to eliminate the possibility of Dmitri getting behind him again.
TEX: Damn! I have no clue why Dmitri gave up on the Boston Crab. If it were me I would have kept the pressure on the back of Hank Henry with that Boston Crab and if he kept refusing to submit I would injure his back and put him out of wrestling!
DUFF: Perhaps that is why Hank Henry III and Dmitri are wrestlers here in Asylum Wrestling Alliance and you are not!
Hank is sitting in the corner holding his hand out in front of him to tell Dmitri to hold off coming at him. Dmitri laughs at the pathetic attempt of Hank Henry to hold him off from attacking him again. Referee Jones steps in front of Dmitri and warns him to not attack Hank Henry III since Hank is tied up in the ropes in the corner. Dmitri pushes the Referee aside and he approaches Hank to finish him off. Hank stands up in the corner as Dmitri approaches and when Dmitri is a few feet from him Hank lashes out with a kick to the stomach on Dmitri. This distracts Dmitri for a moment but it doesn't stop him. Dmitri again approaches Hank Henry in the corner and this time Hank holds onto the top ropes with his arms and he reaches out with both legs and kicks Dmitri in the midsection again. This time Dmitri has the wind knocked out of him but he isn't stopped completely. For a third time Dmitri approaches the corner and once again Hank holds onto the top ropes and lashes out with both feet to kick Dmitri in the stomach again. Dmitri was expecting the kick so he reaches out and grabs the legs of Hank. He pulls hard on his legs to attempt to drag him out of the corner. Hank Henry is holding hard to the top ropes in the corner which prevents Dmitri from pulling him out of the corner. Dmitri continues to pull hard on the legs of Hank in an attempt to pull him loose from the corner ropes and drop him onto the mat.
TEX: When Dmitri pulls Hank Henry out of the corner and slams him to the mat it will be all over time for Hank Henry III. I can already see the Bite of Death finisher by Dmitri to finish off the so-called Universal Champion.
DUFF: What do you mean WHEN Dmitri pulls Hank Henry out of the corner? Don't you mean IF Dmitri could pull Hank Henry out of the corner? There is one hell of a difference between IF and WHEN Tex!
Dmitri is having an impossible time pulling Hank Henry out of the corner. Trying to figure another way to get Hank out of the corner and off the ropes Dmitri eases up on his hold on the legs of Hank just enough to relax the body of Hank. We see Hank Henry hold tight to the top ropes of the corner and get one of his legs free. With his free leg he manages to land a hard kick to the side of the head of Dmitri. Since he wasn't expecting to get kicked in the head, Dmitri releases the hold on Hank Henry and he staggers back a few steps. Hank takes advantage of the temporary distraction of Dmitri by lunging out of the corner and catching Dmitri with a clothesline which knocks Dmitri to the mat. Dmitri doesn't stay down long but as soon as he gets to his feet Hank Henry is right on him to execute a pendulum backbreaker. Hank quickly drops on top of Dmitri for the pin. Referee Simon Jones is quick to get into position to make the pinfall count. ONE...TWO...THR... OMG! Obviously by sheer instinct Dmitri gets his shoulder up to break the pin! Hank Henry is livid as he realizes he just missed the win by a split-second.
TEX: Whew! That was too close for comfort!
DUFF: I have to be honest here that I was going to complain about a slow count by Referee Simon Jones. However, he did get into position for the pinfall count quickly and he did start the count quickly so all I can say is good job by Dmitri for getting his shoulder up before the Referee's hand hit the mat for the third time.
We are surprised when we see Hank Henry III slide out of the ring and start walking around ringside rather than continue to go after Dmitri for the win. This delay allows Dmitri to relax and get the cobwebs out of his head and to catch his breath. We watch as Hank Henry walks by the Timekeeper's Table where his Universal Title is located. We see Hank Henry pick up the Universal Title Belt and reach on the backside of it. He then motions into his wrestling trunks but we are not sure if he is just scratching himself or not. Dmitri is starting to get to his feet so Hank Henry slides back into the ring. He stands there waiting for Dmitri to get to his feet. As Dmitri stands to his feet Hank reaches into his wrestling trunks and he pulls out his trademark fork to attack Dmitri with it. Hank lunges at Dmitri but Dmitri sees him coming with the fork in his hand and he reaches out, grabs the wrist of Hank, and he pulls the fork out of Hank Henry's hand. We, and Hank Henry, watch as Dmitri takes the fork in his hands and bends it into a small clump and then he throws the bent up fork out of the ring. Dmitri then grabs Hank Henry by the throat and he starts choking him. Quickly Hank Henry reaches up and digs his fingers into the eyes of Dmitri blinding him. Dmitri is clawing his eyes from the eye rake as Hank Henry gets a demonic look on his face as he realizes he has the match in hand.
TEX: Do you see what I mean about Hank Henry III always cheating? He just poked Dmitri in the eyes which is an illegal maneuver.
DUFF: So, Dmitri choking Hank wasn’t an illegal maneuver? You are one big time biased announcer Tex!
Hank runs up and attempts to execute a DDT upon Dmitri. However, Dmitri has enough vision left to see Hank coming at him and he is able to side-step Hank which caused Hank Henry III to stumble past him and into the ropes. Hank rebounds off the ropes and catches his balance and he stands there thinking of how to end this match and pin Dmitri. While Hank is on one side of the ring looking over at Dmitri, we see Dmitri on the other side of the ring looking at Hank. The two stumble out to the center of the ring. Dmitri grabs Hank Henry and whips him into the ropes. Hank rebounds off the ropes and Dmitri attempts a clothesline which Hank ducks under. Hank then grabs Dmitri by the arm and he whips him into the ropes. On the rebound Hank Henry III attempts a kick to the gut on Dmitri but Dmitri has enough sits about him to kick Hank to the side. Dmitri then runs to the ropes and rebounds off toward Hank Henry while Hank Henry rebounds off the ropes as now both wrestlers are criss-crossing the ring rebounding off the ropes and both are picking up speed. Finally after a few rebounds they end up rebounding off the ropes and heading directly toward each other. When they are a few feet apart both leap into the air to give a spear to the other and when they meet in the middle of the ring they hit head-to-head so hard that both of them are completely knocked out and both flop helplessly on their backs on the mat.
TEX: Oh crap! Did you hear that crack when they dove at each other and they smacked heads?
DUFF: Yes, it sounded like two coconuts slamming into each other.
As Dmitri and Hank Henry III land on their backs on the mat, with both of them out cold, they land hard and each wrestler ends up with one arm laying over the chest of the other. Referee Simon Jones takes a look at the two wrestlers, each on their back, and each with an arm over the chest of the other, and even though it was totally by mistake when they both passed out and landed on their backs on the mat, Referee Jones has no other choice but to determine that both wrestlers are pinning the other at the same time so he drops down and makes a double pinfall count. ONE…TWO…THREE!!! Referee Jones calls for the bell and gives the decision to Stormy Canyon for the announcement.
STORMY CANYON: Ladies and Gentlemen we have an interesting decision on this match. Referee Simon Jones has determined that when both wrestlers got knocked out, landed on their backs, and in the process each had an arm over the chest of the other, that this match is considered a Draw due to a double pinfall. Therefore the winners of this match, due to a Draw, are both DMITRI and HANK HENRY III.
TEX: Now if that isn’t one of the strangest endings to a wrestling match I don’t know what is.
DUFF: Yeah, I don’t think I have ever seen that happen before. I mean think of the odds of two wrestlers getting knocked out, both landing on their backs, and both ended up with an arm that flopped over on top of their opponent for a double pinfall.
We watch as the Paramedics come into the ring and load both Dmitri and Hank Henry III onto stretchers and carry them up the ramp to return to the backstage area.
WINNER: DRAW
