The Camera's head out back to see The Canadian Destroyer standing in front of his dressing room door dressing in his wrestling gear. The Canadian Destroyer looks at the camera beginning to speak.
John Harper: Tonight history will be made in front of my AWA fans!
John Harper pauses for a moment. Harper listens carefully as we can hear the fans chanting his name.
Harper.....Harper....Harper.....Harper......Harper
John Harper: Yes that's right. You all heard it tonight there will be history made when The Canadian Destroyer steps foot into the squared circle. Not only will people be DESTROYED, but everyone will witness The Canadian Destroyer kicking the boss from one side of the arena to the other.
Harper.....Harper....Harper.....Harper......Harper
John Harper: Tonight my words will come true, ill show the AWA what exactly I am made of. It doesn't matter what type of match it is who it's against. Your going to see my best every damn time. The Dark Enforcers your a thing of the past like I've said all week, and I'm going to prove just that tonight. As for my Tag Team Partner tonight witness victory because when your standing beside The Canadian Destroyer there's a good chance of victory. When your against The Canadian Destroyer get used to a night of living hell. Lets bring down the roof in this place, lets show them what a true main event is all about!! No PAIN......NO GAME!!!!!
The Canadian Destroyer walks down the hallway away from the camera as we hear the fans still chanting his name.
Harper.....Harper....Harper.....Harper......Harper
Chaplin walks sullenly backstage, seaking out a friendly face, and finds himself soon face to face with John Harper. Normally they would just exchange nods and walk past, but it seemed like Chaplin was going out of his way to make eye contact with Harper, and they stop in front of each other.
Harper: Chaplin…
Chaplin: Don’t worry Harper, I am not here to fight.
Harper: Good because I do not want to be the guy that beats up a cripple.
Chaplin: Yeah whatever. We need to talk, you got me fired by Hank, because he thinks I am working with you because we are both Canadian.
Harper: Sounds like I didn’t do anything, it’s just your friend is insane. Listen I am sorry about you getting fired, but that is not my problem.
Chaplin: I want to make you an offer.
Harper: Shoot.
Chaplin: Hire me as your Manager.
Harper: Um… I don’t know Chaplin, I don’t really need a manger right now, besides I don’t think we would jive that well.
Chaplin: It would be a real kick to Hanks nuts when you face him next week and I am standing in your corner.
Harper: I just don’t think so Chaplin.
Chaplin nods.
Chaplin: Okay.
And Chaplin extends his hand to shake Harpers, and at first Harper is wary to take it.
Chaplin: What you think I am going to attack you or something.
Harper: Yes I am.
Chaplin: I’m a hobbling crippling that can barely walk with a cane, what can I do?
Harper: A lot.
Chaplin: Good point.
And Chaplin sets his hand down.
Chaplin: Think it over Harper.
Harper: I don’t think my decision will change much.
Chaplin: Okay.
And the two part ways, but as soon as Harpers back is turned Chaplin has brought out a tazer from his pocket, and gets John Harper in the Arm pit. As John Harper withers on the ground Chaplin looks over him.
Chaplin: You should of said yes.
Vs.
Tex: The match is already underway between Arthur and Toxic, fighting it out in the ring.
Duff: Either a fire burned under her behind or something, because Toxic is already overpowering Arthur big time!
The action cuts to the ring as Arthur is completely dazed by Toxic’s punches, sending him scrambling to the upper-left corner of the ring. Toxic takes the time to bring in a few knees into his stomach, then knocking him silly with a vicious uppercut out of nowhere. Arthur staggers forward as she steps back a bit, then she immediately grabs him and executes THE POSION EFFECT!!!!!!!!! She drags him to the middle of the ring, then gets the pin on him, hooking the leg, the referee counts it. 1…2….3!!!!!! The bell rings as the referee calls for the end of the match!
Stormy: Here is your winner, by pinfall – TOXIC ANGEL!!!!!!!!!!
Tex: That must have been one of the quickest matches we ever witnessed here in the AWA, Duff!
It looks like Arthur’s career has been cut short by Toxic Angel. Man, she was definitely on fire tonight!
Toxic Angel rolls out of the ring and points at Arthur, laughing at him as he lays out in the middle of the ring, completely motionless as we fade into a commercial for the next PPV.
Winner:
There is a break in the action, between matches, and we hear Blondie's ONE WAY OR ANOTHER hit the speakes in the arena. The TRON comes to life showing clips of Bill Barnhart executing his Bulldog finisher to defeat many opponents. The image on the TRON switches to Bill's dressing room where Barnhart is waiting for his Ice Cream Truck match with Hank Henry III. Bill is dressed in his pink wrestling tights with the black trim.
Oh, Hank, you are one funny sucker you know that? Not funny in the way of being intelligently amusing, but funny in that you try to be something you are not. You see Hank, tonight we have a very special match to attend to. We have an Ice Cream Truck match where all I need to do to defeat you is beat you down, drag you into the Ice Cream Truck, stuff you in the freezer, then shut the door of the Ice Cream Truck to win the match. Considering my winning history in matches like Graveyard Brawls...Casket Matches...and Ambulance Matches...you have a snowball's chance in hell of defeating me tonight. Have fun losing punk!
Bill laughs as he reaches over to a small refrigerator which he opens, reaches into the freezer, and pulls out a Drumstick Ice Cream. Bill opens the Drumstick Ice Cream, which is his favorite, and he takes a big bite out of it. He smiles into the camera as we go into a slow fade out until the TRON screen goes black.
Vs.
Stormy: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is our first ever Ice Cream Truck match!! The rules of this match are as followed…. The way to beat your opponent and win the match is the man that throws his opponent inside the Ice cream Truck and shuts the doors!!!!
The fans erupt as they hear the music from the first combatant as Hank Henry the 3rd that walks out to the arena
Stormy: The first wrestler to come out to the ring, standing in at 6’6 and weighing in at 248 pounds!! Hailing from Ellis, New York!!! Hank Henry the third!!!!
Hank comes out, he is wearing his cowboy hat as he is staring at the fans who are cheering him on before climbing in the ring.
Stormy: And his opponent!! Standing in at 6’0 and weighing in at 240 pounds!! Hailing from Oakland, California!!!! Bill Barnhart!!
Barnhart’s music hits as he suddenly comes driving to the arena in the ice cream truck the fans erupt as they see him get out of the car with ice cream thrown in the audience as he barges towards the ring. The referee calls for the bell as Barnhart has slid in the ring as Hank attacks him right away. Hank starts to blast Bill over the back with some heavy blows before grabbing the former champion and lifting him up to his feet and slamming him hard on the canvas. Hank then runs to the ropes and comes off the ropes with a big time elbow drop to the back of the member of the Family. Hank slides out of the ring and grabs a steel chair and throws it in the ring, he then grabs a television cable from underneath the ring and slides back in the ring. He unwraps the cable and goes after Barnhart as he is about to whip it against the back of the member of the Family. Just as he delivers the blow it is Bill that sidesteps and the cable is being hit on the ring ropes.
Tex: That was close!!!
Hank turns around as he wants to continue his focus on Bill Barnhart, but Barnhart delivers a big time dropkick that sends Hank to the outside of the ring. Bill gets up and slides out of the ring, there he looks underneath the ring and finds an Ice cooler.
Duff: I guess Bill has brought his own box of ice cream!!
Bill opens the ice cooler and grabs a Drumstick and grins before turning back to his opponent. He grabs Hank by the hair and slams the Drumstick down the throat of Hank Henry and then starts to pound him with some heavy closed fists before driving his knee in the chest as Hank drops to his hands and knees. Bill turns around again and suddenly grabs the ice cooler and blasts it across the back of Hank as he raises his arms in the air and taunts the fans who starts to boo the member of The Family.
Duff: Why are they booing him? He is the most successful wrestler in the history of the company!! What ingrates!!
Bill tries to drag Hank towards the Ice Cream truck, but Hank suddenly grabs the cord from the cameraman and pulls it off so that the view of the camera is gone.. he slowly gets to his feet and blasts the cord across the back of Barnhart before starting to choke him with it… Hank then reverses things as he wraps the cord around the throat of Bill and pulls him towards the ice cream truck. There he ties the cord around the bumper of the truck and then climbs in the truck
Tex: What the?
Duff: Don’t tell me…. OH MY GOD!!
Suddenly we see Hank get in the truck and drives off to the backstage area as the fans go nuts. We can see the truck drive backstage as camera’s follow what is going on as Bill desperately tries to get the cable off his throat as he is being pulled around. The truck gets to the parking lot where Hank drives close to every car and turns around as this sends Bill crashing into the cars with authority. This finally stops where Hank stops the ice cream truck and opens the door as he comes diving off with an ice pick… Aiming it towards Bill Barnhart, who rolls out of the way and the ice pick hits the concrete of the parking lot. Bill quickly gets to his feet as he takes the cable off his throat and then kicks Hank against the knee, causing him to drop to his knees and then its Bill wrapping the cord around the throat of Hank Henry and then slams him against the concrete with the back of his head. Bill turns his attention to the ice cream truck.
Tex: What does Bill have in mind now?
Bill grabs some cones from the ice cream truck and grabs whipped cream and starts to blast whipped cream in the throat of Hank before slamming bottle of whipped cream in the face of a now whipped face of Hank Henry and then lifts him up and is about to go for a Body Slam, but just when he lifts Hank up for that move it is Hank that manages frees from Bill and then executes a Neck breaker. Hank gets up and grabs Bill by the head and lifts him up to his feet and slams Bill into the open Ice cream truck and slams the doors shut as he wins the match
Stormy: The winner of this match!!! Hank Henry the third!!!
Tex: What a match!!! Ice cream anyone???
Hank can be seen eating an swirly as he is walking to the locker room while Bill is trying to get out of the ice cream truck as we see him clearly filled with nuts and chocolate ice cream.
Winner:
Goth can be seen talking on the phone to someone, he is grinning from ear to ear as he doesn’t notices the camera
Goth: Yeah, that’s right. It’s about time you come down and show the world where your allegiance are. Oh yeah I am sure that you know what your role is and to show the world who the true power in the AWA is…
Goth suddenly sees the camera and slams the door shut
Tex: What was that all about??
Vs.
The lights in the arena begins to flash as THE UNFORGIVEN by Metallica hits the speakers. The attention of the fans is drawn to the entrance area as they see Big Bad Casey step out from the backstage area and walk under the TRON. As he walks under the TRON pyros erupt and cascade sparks down around him. Casey stops at the top of the entrance ramp and goes through some Martial Arts moves. He then heads down the ramp to the ring. When Big Bad Casey arrives at the ring he leaps up on the ring apron, steps through the ropes, and then he dances around the ring performing several Martial Arts moves again. As he approaches the corner where the nightstick is up on a pole he looks up at the nightstick and then out to the crowd where he motions how he will get the nightstick and use it against Jason Stevens.
TEX: This should be an interesting match Duff. We have two wrestlers who come into this match with brutal style of wrestling. Casey is one hell of a big man at 7 feet 1 inch and 375 pounds so it will be interesting to see how the 5 foot 7 inch 175 pound Jason Stevens is going to deal with that.
DUFF: Well it is difficult to overcome a 200 pound weight difference and a foot and a half of height but if the recent match between Rey Mysterio and Batista is any indication, the smaller man in the match can do well.
TEX: Jason Stevens is not a Rey Mysterio .
STORMY CANYON: Here is our first participant in this Nightstick On A Pole match, from Nashua, New Hampshire, standing tall at 7 feet 1 inch and weighing a significant 375 pounds, it is BIG BAD CASEY!!!
The crowd begins to boo Casey but their booing is short as ROOM FOR ON MORE by Anthrax hits the speakers. The fans turn their attention to the entrance area and they watch Jason Stevens, attended by his friend Steve Ramone, and his sister, Carrie Stevens, come out from the backstage area. The trio walks under the TRON and pause at the landing at the top of the entrance ramp. The crowd starts to boo them as the three hold hands and raise their arms over their heads in a victory pose. They drop their hands and head down the ramp to the ring. As Ramone and Carrie take up seats at ringside, Jason Stevens walks up the ring steps, then along the ring apron, and finally he steps through the ropes and into the ring. He looks over at Big Bad Casey who motions toward the nightstick on the pole and gestures to Stevens how he plans on beating him hard with the nightstick.
TEX: Well this should be an amusing match if nothing else. I believe the only things that can help Jason in this match is his quickness, using the nightstick on Casey, and if he can get Steve Ramone to interfere in the match as he does in every other match.
DUFF: What? Ramone has not been interfering in the matches Jason has! You must be watching different matches than I have been watching.
STORMY CANYON: Here is our next participant in this Nightstick On A Pole match, from Las Vegas, Nevada, standing in at 5 feet 7 inches and weighing 175 pounds, it is JASON “THE SENSATION” STEVENS!!!
TEX: While Referee Simon Jones is giving pre-match instructions to the wrestlers we should describe the rules of this match to the fans so they understand how it works.
DUFF: The rules are simple. The only way to win is by pinfall. There are no count outs or submission here.
TEX: But the twist in the match is that in one corner there is a 5 foot high pole attached to the corner ring post. On top of that 5 foot high pole is an 18 inch nightstick like you see police officers carry.
DUFF: And although this is not a Hardcore Rules match there is a stipulation that if you can get possession of that nightstick then you are allowed to use it as a weapon against your opponent.
TEX: Yes, that is an interesting twist to an otherwise normal match. I believe the key will be who can get the nightstick first. It would be to Jason’s benefit to obtain the nightstick first so he can use it on Casey and wear him down.
DUFF: Only time will tell. Okay, Referee Jones is done explaining the rules of the match and he is about to ring the bell to start the match.
The Referee calls to the Timekeeper to ring the bell to start the match and the bell rings and this match is officially underway. Casey approaches Stevens to lock up with him but Jason wisely decides not to lock up with the big man. Instead Jason turns and runs to the corner where the nightstick is on the pole. He leaps up on the ropes and up onto the top turnbuckle. He nearly loses his balance but he manages to grab onto the pole attached to the ring post and regain his balance. This allows Big Bad Casey to approach the corner before Stevens can reach up and grab the nightstick off the pole. While Stevens is reaching up to try to grab the nightstick, Casey reaches up, grabs Jason by the foot, and pulls his leg and caused Jason to fall. Fortunately Stevens doesn't fall to the arena floor, but when he falls he ends up dropping onto the top rope and hitting his groin on the rope. Jason falls off the rope and lands in the ring holding his groin. Casey walks over to Stevens and lands a few hard kicks to the head and chest of Stevens. Casey then drops on top of Stevens and goes for the pinfall. Referee Simon Jones drops for the count. ONE...TWO...and Jones stops the count. Casey looks at the Referee because he doesn't understand what is going on since Jason has not kicked out of the pin. Referee Jones points to the ropes where we see Jason Stevens got his foot on the bottom rope which caused the Referee to stop the count. Casey is ordered to get off Jason and break the pin. Casey reluctantly gets up to break the pin but immediately he drops a knee onto the leg of Stevens which was draped over the bottom rope. Stevens rolls around in pain holding his leg as Casey is laughing at him.
TEX: Casey is using his big size to his advantage here. Stevens almost used his quickness to his advantage when he started the match by trying to get the nightstick off the pole.
DUFF: Yes, if Stevens didn't lose his balance when he got up on the top turnbuckle he would have been able to get the nightstick and use it against Casey. But that moment of losing his balance turned this match in favor of Big Bad Casey.
Stevens slides back into the corner and he is still holding his leg. Casey approaches to follow-up on Jason but as he approaches Jason reaches up and punches Casey in the midsection. Simon Jones issues a warning to Stevens for the punch but Jason doesn't care. Big Bad Casey approaches again and Jason again punches him in the stomach. This stops Casey and Stevens sees an opportunity. Jason lunges at Casey and head butts him in the chest which is enough to cause Casey to lose his balance and fall to the mat. Jason gets to his feet but he is unable to put all his weight on his hurt leg yet. Jason limps over to the ropes and starts to climb the corner ropes to try to get the nightstick again. He is having trouble getting up on the ropes because of his hurt leg. Jason keeps dropping back to the mat because of his hurt leg but he keeps trying. Big Bad Casey gets to his feet and he kicks Stevens in the back of the leg which is already hurt and Jason crumples to the mat in pain. While Stevens is rolling around on the mat holding his hurt leg, Casey begins to climb the corner ropes so he can get the nightstick off the pole and use it against Stevens.
TEX: I believe this is it for Stevens. His leg is hurt, he cannot stand on that leg, and once Casey gets that nightstick and uses it on Jason, this match is over.
DUFF: Nothing short of a miracle is going to get Stevens out of this match with a win.
Jason watches helplessly as Casey begins to climb the corner ropes. Stevens calls Referee Simon Jones over to him. Jones, thinking that maybe Stevens may be hurt and the match may need to be stopped, he walks over to Jason to check on him. In the meantime Casey has reached the top ropes in the corner. Referee Jones has his back to Casey as he attends to Jason Stevens. Steve Ramone takes the opportunity of the distraction of the Referee to get out of his folding metal chair and approach the ring. Ramone folds up the metal chair and climbs the ring steps with it in his hands. He swings the chair hard into the lower back of Big Bad Casey who is standing on the top ropes of the corner. Casey grabs on to the pole where the nightstick is mounted but he doesn't go down. This time Ramone rams the edge of the chair into the lower back of Casey and this time Casey releases his hold on the pole and falls hard into the ring. Steve Ramone quickly returns to the arena floor, sets up his chair, and sits in it acting like nothing happened. Referee Jones turns around when he hears Casey smack into the mat but he doesn't know what happened to him so he has to assume that Big Bad Casey lost his balance and fell off the ropes.
TEX: That is what we talked about earlier. We both said that the only way Jason Stevens was going to hang in this match was with interference by Steve Ramone.
DUFF: Who is this WE stuff? You are the one who sad Steve Ramone always interferes in the matches of Jason Stevens not me. I am the one who said he doesn't.
TEX: So what do you call what Steve Ramone just did if you don't call it interference?
DUFF: I didn't say that incident just now was not interference as it clearly was. I am saying there is a first time for everything.
Both Casey and Stevens are on the mat. Casey was smacked in the back with a steel chair by Steve Ramone and Jason Stevens is still nursing that hurt leg. Both wrestlers are rolling around on the mat and both are moaning in pain. Referee Jones is helpless to do anything but observe since the only way to win the match is by pinfall. Stevens is the first to get to his feet. He tests his injured leg by putting his weight on it and it appears he is able to put his weight on his leg without too much of a problem. He walks over to Casey and props him up in the corner where the nightstick is on the pole. Jason reaches back and lands several hard forearm smashes to the chest and jaw of Casey. Stevens then rams his shoulder into the midsection of Casey. Stevens then grabs the arms of Casey and drapes them over the ropes in the corner which helps to hold Big Bad Casey upright. Jason steps back and lands a few hard kicks to the midsection of Casey. We watch as Jason takes a few steps back and takes a run into the corner toward Big Bad Casey. Stevens leaps into the air and uses Casey as a step ladder to leap up on the top rope. Jason grabs the pole to keep his balance and then he reaches up and grabs the 18 inch nightstick off the pole. Jason holds the nightstick up in the air to show it to the crowd. Casey staggers out of the corner and he doesn't know where Stevens is located. Jason stands on the top ropes of the corner and leaps off the ropes and onto the back of Casey. He reaches around Casey and place the nightstick under the chin of Casey. Jason then holds on to each end of the nightstick and pulls back choking Casey. Big Bad Casey is fading fast as his oxygen is cut off. He staggers around but he cannot get to the ropes to break the hold, but instead of drops to his knees and he cannot escape. When Jason Stevens feels he has Casey disabled enough he releases the choke with the nightstick, rolls Casey over on his back, and goes for the pin, firmly hooking both of Casey's legs. Referee Simon Jones drops and makes the count. ONE...TWO...THREE!!! Jason Stevens has won this match as Referee Jones calls for the bell.
TEX: That honestly was not the ending I expected to this match. I never even thought of choking your opponent with the nightstick. That was totally brilliant on the part of Jason Stevens.
DUFF: Honestly it was more luck than anything. But I do have to give some credit to Stevens for thinking of jumping off that top rope and choking Casey like he did.
STORMY CANYON: Here is the winner of this Nightstick On A Pole match, after using the nightstick to choke his opponent then getting the pinfall victory, it is JASON "THE SENSATION" STEVENSSSSS!!!!!
Referee Simon Jones raises the hand of Jason Stevens in victory while Jason raises his other hand, which is holding the nightstick, and the fans boo him. Jones releases the hand of Stevens and Jason exits the ring and joins up with Carrie and Steve Ramone. The trio walk up the ramp to return to the dressing room area. We return to the ring where Big Bad Casey just regained consciousness and he has been informed that he lost the match. Casey pounds the mat with his fists as he realizes he lost the match.
Winner:
The TRON crackles to life as Ronin’s face, painted like the Crow, fills the screen. He is surrounded by darkness, his eyes barely visible, deep shadows on a ghostly white surface. He is smiling, remaining silent for a few moments while the crowd begins to grow quiet. When the noise dissipates, he begins to speak.
Tonight, you will all finally see what you have been waiting for…the inaugural defeat of Marissa Swanson!
There is a thunderous reply of cheers and boos from the crowd, the noise echoing and causing a faint rumble to roll throughout the arena. After a moment, it dies down, and he continues.
I know the time has come and gone for this kind of thing, and that it’s time to get down to business, but somehow I just couldn’t resist the chance to answer the final words of our Universal Champion.
Once again, she has proven her youth and inexperience. I told her earlier this week that there is nothing at stake in our match, tonight. She was all-too-quick to retort that statement, and put me in my place by telling me there is plenty at stake here. And that plenty is…well, staying undefeated, yeah. Yadda yadda yadda…
There is audible laughter and applause from the crowd.
I think that single phrase says it all. She is such a smart young woman.
But moving on, she also proved that, as she accused me of, she doesn’t know me as well as she would like to think. Yes, one day she will die…but I will not. I am as the Elders are, my dear. That is not dead which can eternally lie. Like it or not, I am a god, the wrath of the Elders embodied on earth. Much like Mr. Porter, in whose veins the blood of the Wolf God flows, I am a being far greater than yourself. But I will succeed where he has failed. And per your request, in a few moments, I will stop talking about it…and I will show it to you…
Ronin stares outward, his laughter echoing throughout the arena as the TRON goes black amidst a chorus of screams and chants from the crowd.
Vs.
Stormy Canyon: The following non-title contest is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, hailing from Nashville, Tennesee, weighing in at 240 pounds... Accompanied by Ilati... RONIN!!!
The lights in the arena go out and the crowd begins to buzz in anticipation as 'Violence Fetish’ by Disturbed begins to play over the PA system. The opening riff slowly grows louder, causing the entire building to rumble...
"Bring the violence,
it's significant
to the life if you've ever known anyone.
Bring the violence,
it's significant
to the life can you feel it?
Oh ow, ow!"
A thunderous explosion rocks the arena as fireworks and pyrotechnics fill the entrance area.
“How do you sleep when you live with your lies
Out of your mouth, up from your mind?
That kind of thinking starts a chain reaction.
You are a timebomb ticking away."
As the smoke clears, Ronin and Ila step through the haze onto the entrance ramp to a jumbled chorus of cheers and boos. They walk to the bottom of the ramp and stop.
"You need to release what you're feeling inside
Let out the beast that you're trying to hide.
Step right up and be a part of the action.
Go get your game face on because it's time to play."
Ronin thrusts both fists into the air as another pop of pyro goes off behind him.
"You're pushing and fighting your way.
You're ripping it
Up!!!"
His painted face remains an expressionless mask as he slowly walks toward the ring, pointedly ignoring the fans. Ila stands outside the ring as he slides under the bottom rope and begins to circle the ring in anticipation.
Stormy Canyon: And his opponent, hailing from Franklin, Tennesee, weighing 121 pounds... She is the reigning AWA Universal Champion... MARISSA SWANSON!!!
The sound of cameras flashing can be heard as the AWA jumbotron lights up to show Marissa standing on a red carpet. The scene zooms out a bit to show that she's surrounded by cameramen. A reporter ducks in through the cameramen and reach Marissa to ask her a question.
Reporter: Are you sure that you're ready for the big time?
Marissa continues to stand there and look very pretty.
Reporter: Marissa? What's your answer?
Marissa: I'll be fine. I may be young, but I'm smart and I know what I want. And besides, I’m now the AWA Universal Champion if you look down at my waist.
She continues to smile as the reporter speaks up again.
Reporter: Well you heard it here folks! Marissa Swanson heads your way yet again. If you love her or hate her, she’s the Universal Champion. And from the way she talks, she will be it for quite a while…
The scene on the jumbotron fades as the beginning of "Party In The USA" by Miley Cyrus begins to play. Shots of Marissa growing up on the jumbotron fade in and out until Marissa Swanson appears from out of the backstage area. She stands on the stage with the AWA Universal Championship strapped around her waist for a few seconds soaking in her surroundings before making her move down the wrestler ramp towards the ring. Any fans that are nice to wave at her or blow a kiss to her catches her attention and she gives them one back, although those are few and few between due to the large amounts of boos from the jealous women in attendance. As she gets to the ring, she climbs up the steel steps and up to the top rope. Meanwhile on the jumbotron, some shots of Marissa having fun at the beach play. All the men hoot and holler as Marissa now does a picture-perfect backflip off the top rope while still wearing the title belt. Marissa then puts her arms up into the air before pulling them back down. She then heads to her corner to await the beginning of the match.
Duff: Now this is THE chick that I love to be behind. She has been on a real roll since joining AWA and when she wins tonight, the roll continues!
Tex: When she wins? Biased much… now I can’t deny Marissa has talent but lets not count Ronin out just yet.
Duff: Marissa is going to own Ronin. I’ll bet a weeks pay on it!
Tex: DEAL!
The bell rings as Marissa and Ronin circle around one another for a few moments before locking up in a collar and elbow tieup. Marissa takes the first offensive by backing Ronin into the ropes and whipping him into the other side and when Ronin rebounded, Marissa leapt into the air and landed a beautiful dropkick that smacked Ronin in the jaw!
Duff: HA! Told you so… pay up Tex!
Tex: Match isn’t over with yet, Duff.
Ronin reached his feet and when Marissa went for a grab, Ronin grabbed a handful of her shorts and stun gunned her on the middle ropes. Ronin backed up and charged at Marissa landing his inner thigh right into the back and neck of Marissa causing the pressure to smack her into the middle rope further. Marissa gasps for air as Ronin brags to the crowd about his in-ring intelligence. Marissa shakes off the cobwebs and stands up with Ronin's back still turned to her. Marissa tapped Ronin on his shoulder and when he turned around, greeted him with a bitch slap that sent the crowd into a frenzy!
Duff: Damn that had to hurt his pride!
Tex: I’d say so there. If I didn't know any better, I'd think Ronin was calling to the wrong power here tonight!
Ronin's eyes lit up after the slap and he went to return the favor only to have Marissa grab his arm in mid-slap and shake her head no before landing an armdrag takeover. Ronin got back up to his feet and was floored with another one. The crowd came alive with a chant for Marissa as Ronin backed himself into the corner wondering how he is getting outclassed here. Marissa rushes at Ronin and leaps into the air looking for a stinger splash but Ronin moves out at the last possible second and rolls her up making sure to grab a handful of tights in the process!
One…
Two…
The match would have ended there had the referee not seen the handful of tights at the two point five count and reprimanded Ronin for even attempting such a tactic. Ronin was upset his plan backfired and when he turned around, he was greeted with a kick to the chest and Marissaa grabbed Ronin by the head, lifting him up and spiking him on the canvas. It was Marissa’s turn for the pin attempt!
One...
Two...
Once again this would have been the fate sealer but lucky for Ronin, the referee noticed his foot underneath the bottom rope at the last possible second. Marissa just laughed at this and dragged Ronin to the center of the ring. Marissa stomped on Ronin's chest before making her way to the corner, signalling for the end. As she climbs up, flashbulbs go off all over the arena as Marissa delivers The Dreamcatcher! As soon as she makes impact, Marissa hooks both of Ronin's legs...
One...
Two...
Three!!!
The bell sounded as “Party In The USA” began to play over the PA system as the male portions of the crowd let out a round of applause while the females boo for Marissa who was handed her Universal Championship.
Stormy Canyon: HERE IS YOUR WINNER... MARISSA SWANSON!!!
Duff: HA-HA! Pay up now, Tex!
Tex: Blast… wait, Ronin wasn’t owned. He put up a long hard battle here.
Duff: Apparently you don’t know what I meant by owned. I meant he would lose to Marissa. So pay up, Tex.
Winner:
Goth can be seen preparing for his match as he stares at his woman that is holding a mirror in his hands so that he can stare at himself to see if he’s ready
Goth: It is time to show the world that I’m ready
Goth then walks out of the locker room as his woman follows him
Vs.
Spotlights encircle the ring and finally stop and form one huge spotlight over the now shivering Stormy Canyon. Yet she still speaks the introductions to tonight’s main event with pride, despite the cold air that is whipping around inside the uncovered Giants Stadium.
Stormy: Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is your main event and is a No Disqualification Tornado Tag Team Match! This match is scheduled for one fall! Introducing first, weighing in at 315 pounds…Chaaase Tomliiiin!!!
The lights in the arena dim and turn to a crimson hue as "Forsaken" by Disturbed begins to play through the speakers. The fans begin to boo as a small flame circles the center of the stage. A few moments pass before the flames rocket into the air. As the flames begin to die down, Chase Tomlin stands in the center of the small flames, looking around the crowd. Chase smirks slyly before stepping through the flames and making his way into the blood red spotlight and making his way down to the ring. At the bottom of the ramp, Chase walks around the ring to the steel steps, slowly stepping up one at a time before slowly pacing across the apron, taking a moment to look into the crowd with disgust before climbing between the ropes and making his way to his corner as the lights return to normal. Chase removes his trench coat and drapes it across the top rope as the music fades out.
Duff: And by little surprise, Chase and Harper will be making their entrances separate obviously. I’m not excited for that or the return of Goth to the ring for that matter. I’m just excited that our Universal Champion has stayed out here ringside for the big main event tonight! And she’s sitting right next to me!!!
Tex: Be excited while it lasts Duff. And you Marissa, nice win out there a short while ago.
Marissa Swanson finishes putting on a third headset so she can officially join the announce team with calling tonight’s main event.
Marissa: Well thanks Tex. It’s about time that you hopped on my bandwagon. Duff here at least got on it the night of my debut.
Duff: How very true.
Duff has a sly look on his face as the lights go dim yet again. As everyone in the crowd goes silent, with the silence everyone is staring up at the tron waiting for something to happen, when all of a sudden gold and pink sparks go flying up in the air and “Last Resort” by Papa Roach blares over the PA system. The Canadian Destroyer John Harper walks out from the curtain with the crowd going insane!!! Harper wears his black glasses, a black and pink leather jacket with his pink and black wrestling trunks. Harper walks down the ramp giving the kids high fives as he looks over picking out one kid, Harper takes off his glasses giving them to the little boy in the front row. The kid has a huge smile on his face as he high fives John Harper. Harper turns back to the ring walking up the steel steps. As he steps in between the ropes, he takes off his leather jacket, passing it over the top rope to Stormy Canyon who brings it over to a turnbuckle and drapes it right on top. Harper begins jogging on the spot, hitting his chest as the crowd begins to chant, Harper....Harper...Harper....
At ringside Marissa doesn’t look very impressed at all.
Stormy: And his partner, from Truro, Nova Scotia, Canada…weighing in at 191 pounds…John Harperrrrrr!!!
The crowd cheers, but those cheers don’t last long as Harper has his music suddenly cut and replaced by “The Golden Age of Grotesque” by Marilyn Manson. The theme of the AWA owner blasts across the sound system as Goth walks out to the ring. He is not alone however as Fang is right by his side. The Dark Enforcers are followed to the ring by Sapphira and Brenda, who are both wearing their usual wrestling outfits. Goth and Fang both stop halfway down the entrance way and stares at the crowd who are booing the owner of the AWA and his accomplice, who both grin and walk further on. Just outside the ring he lets Sapphira take off his robe as Brenda has Fang begin to focus on the upcoming main event match. As soon as Goth’s robe is off, both Goth and Fang stare down Chase Tomlin and John Harper, who wait in the ring, both in different corners.
Stormy: And their opponents, weighing in at a combined 459 pounds…Goth and Fang…the Dark Enforcerrrrrrrs!!!
Boos are still heard as “The Golden Age of Grotesque” begins to fade out. The ringside bell is rung and Referee “Chocolate” Chip Long asks each team who will be starting. Harper steps in for his side before Chase can while Fang takes the starting spot for the Dark Enforcers.
Tex: And away we go…
Fang immediately takes a swing at Harper, going for a chop at his chest, but Harper catches the arm of Fang and takes him down with an armdrag takeover. Harper then drops down to the mat and actually immediately locks in a sleeper hold, even this early in the match.
Duff: The chances of Fang giving into this are very slim. We just barely started.
Tex: It’s probably because Harper’s aware of the fact that he has a tag team partner that’s not all that fond of him. I don’t blame John for wanting to get out of here early.
The crowd hopes that Fang will give in early, but he begins to fight out of the hold as Brenda and Sapphira are both willing Fang on to get back up. Fang finally elbows Harper in the upper body forcing him backwards, forcing Harper to break the sleeper.
At ringside Marissa relaxes back into her seat and then gets back on her headset.
Marissa: I was kind of hoping he’d get out of that. I figured he would after the great fight that he brought to me last week.
Both announcers turn to Marissa as Fang gets back to his feet. Harper is back on his and the two circle one another. Fang ends up in his corner and he tags in Goth. The crowd wholeheartedly boos as the boss of the AWA now enters the ring for the first time in quite a while. Goth doesn’t wait to bring the fight to Harper and he goes to spear him right down to the canvas. Harper however moves out of the way. Goth puts on the breaks as he now stands in front of Chase Tomlin. Chase actually doesn’t do anything as Goth just turns back around, yelling that Tomlin did the right thing there. Harper however grabs Goth as he turns back around and levels him with a bulldog, much to the delight of the fans.
Marissa shakes her head at the announce table as Tex speaks.
Tex: One would think that our boss was smarter than that, but apparently not.
Duff: Don’t make fun of our boss. I’ll personally make sure that he doesn’t write you a paycheck the next time around.
Harper doesn’t go for a pin but instead gets up to see that Chase wants in the match. He casually struts over towards Chase, but turns back around and doesn’t tag him in. John waits for Goth to get halfway up before he grabs him, lifts him up and delivers a sidewalk slam. Now Harper goes for the first fall of the match. Referee Chip Long counts…1…2…
Goth is able to kick out before the count of 3. Harper pops back up and figures that he probably needs to deliver a move that has more oomph to it. He goes to pick up Goth and gets him up into the air, but can’t execute a spinebuster as Goth is able to somehow kick Harper right in the face. Both men go down. Harper now rolls over to his corner and this time Chase reaches down and tags himself in. Goth almost makes it to Fang, but Chase grabs him and pulls him back to the center of the ring.
Tex: This doesn’t look good for the boss now. He’s stuck in there with the 300 plus pounder, right in the middle of the ring too!
Duff and Marissa watch intently as Chase begins to systematically wear Goth down.
Duff: Somewhere in the back Canis and Metamania are probably watching this sick display, and are probably happy about it. They’re both pathetic tapeworms if you ask me!
Chase feels that Goth is worn down enough now to pull off a maneuver of his own. He scoops up the owner of the AWA and delivers an inverted power bomb and then goes for a pin. Referee Chip Long is there to count it. 1…2…thr- Somehow Goth is able to kick out again. Sapphira looks very worried as she stands next to Brenda, both of them pounding the apron of the canvas to get Goth back up and over to the Dark Enforcer corner to tag in Fang, who by this point looks very fresh and ready to go. Chase however doesn’t even give Goth the chance to get remotely close to his corner.
Duff: Tomlin will pay for this crap.
Marissa remains silent on her headset as she is again looking over at Fang as he desperately wants to be tagged back into the match. Meanwhile Chase is setting up to give Goth the Apocalypse Plunge. This is where Fang loses it and climbs into the ring. Harper comes back in as well and meets Fang. The two begin to exchange a flurry of fists as Chase is now able to successfully land the Apocalypse Plunge on the owner of the AWA. Goth however rolls out to the apron and Chase just glares down towards him. Fang on the other side of the ring is able to dispose of Harper, sending him over the top rope and out to the floor. Goth goes back to the Dark Enforcer corner, which leaves Fang now staring at Chase as the crowd actually cheers for what might happen between the two. Sapphira and Brenda make sure that Goth’s okay as Fang and Chase begin to circle one another in the ring. Marissa stands up at the announce table, not taking her eyes off of the ring, even though she does speak.
Marissa: Now this should be good. In a way, I admire them both…
Finally the silence of moves stops and Fang and Chase get together in a collar-and-elbow tie-up that Chase wins. Chase begins to take control of the situation, but the moment that Chase goes to lift Fang up, Fang slides down Chase’s backside and rolls him up into a pin. The referee is there to count. 1…2… Chase rolls Fang back over, starting a count in his favor now. 1…2… Fang goes to roll it back over, but Chase chooses to toss Fang way from him.
Tex: These two respect each other, but respect only goes so far. They’re on opposite sides, so this is how it must be.
Duff: That’s a shame too.
At this point Harper is rolling back into the ring. He gets back to his corner and begs to be tagged back in. Chase backs up towards Harper and tags him in by punching him right in the chest. Harper’s chest deflates a bit but he quickly recovers and gets into the ring, only to suddenly be greeted with a Fatal Shot from behind.
Duff: YES! The Fatal Shot! That’s gonna be it!
Marissa: Nah. Fang will show us more. He’s all about being inventive. I like that about him…
Fang turns and looks outside the ring, catching where Marissa is standing. Fang actually winks before he pulls Harper up and hits him with the Full Metal Jacket. He now pins Harper, but Referee Chip Long doesn’t even get a chance to count as Chase storms into the ring and breaks up the fall. He then goes to return to his corner, but at this point Goth has regained his senses in his corner and steps into the ring. He goes and spears Chase into the far turnbuckle before picking Chase up with whatever strength he can muster and drilling him back to the mat with the Chaos ADDT.
Tex: Chip Long is losing control of this very quickly…
Duff: I figured he would.
Chase rolls out of the ring and holding his head backs up from the ring, standing not feet from where Marissa Swanson is. He quickly glances over at her before slowly heading for the entrance ramp.
Tex: Is…is Chase leaving?
Duff: Maybe! He said he disliked Harper and feeding him to the Dark Enforcers would just prove that more true!!!
Chase grins at the bottom of the entrance ramp and just watches as Fang slides out of the ring and digs underneath the ring, bringing out two steel chairs. He keeps one and passes the other up to Goth. Goth places his on the mat and brings Harper up to his feet. Fang then delivers another Fatal Shot, nailing Harper’s head right on top of the chair.
Tex: This doesn’t look to good for John here! And it’s No DQ!!! What was Canis thinking when he set this up?
Duff: That’s the thing. He wasn’t thinking!
Fang backs up and allows Goth to deliver the chair shot to the back of Harper’s head, putting him out to pasture, or so it seems. Neither Goth or Fang go for the pinfall but instead both raise their arms into the air as the New Jersey crowd is full with boos. They change to cheers though as Metamania comes flying down the ramp way and slides into the ring
Tex: The cavalry has arrived!
Metamania goes after Fang as Referee Chip Long slides out of the ring and yells for Stormy Canyon to call the match a No Contest. As she does Bill Barnhart begins to come down the entrance ramp. He gets to the ring and climbs up the steel steps. Fang Irish whips Metamania into that corner. Bill pulls Metamania out of the ring and proceeds to administer a bulldog to Metamania right on the steel steps. Metamania’s torso goes violently down to the ringside mats as Bill dusts his hands off. However as he does this and steps into the ring, Hank Henry III comes from out of the crowd and slides into the ring behind Bill while Fang and Goth pull Harper up. Bill doesn’t see it coming as Hank pulls out his fork and stabs Barnhart right in the lower back with it. Hank stands tall in the one corner and then sizes up Goth and Fang from behind. As soon as Hank goes to take the legs out from under Goth and Fang, Marissa slides into the ring under the bottom rope. She intercepts Hank by clotheslining him down. During all this time Chase Tomlin just watches the chaos from the bottom of the entrance ramp, now just beginning to slowly back up it. As Marissa delivers a few blows to Hank, Goth and Fang circle Harper before Goth grabs Harper by the legs and catapults him towards Fang. Fang spears Harper to the mat just as we see Canis stepping out onto the stage yelling into a microphone.
Canis: Alright you two! That’s enough! As of right now, the rules to this match have been changed. It is no longer a No Disqualification match, which means since you two used steel chairs, you have both been disqualified. Now Stormy, make the correct announcement.
Stormy: Here are your winners of the match, via disqualification, Chase Tomlin and John Harperrrrr!!!
Chase just looks up to where Canis is and gives him an uncaring look. Meanwhile in the ring Goth calls for a microphone and Stormy passes it up to him.
Goth: Well, since you had that announcement to make Canis, I have one of my own. You see, you and Meta thought that the Family was weakening, when in fact, it hasn’t. I guess it’s time to announce my surprise to you. But before I do that, I suggest you turn around.
Canis turns around to see the AWA President of Public Relations, Stacy Kissinger hand in hand with the FORMER AWA General Manager, Jay Gold. Canis’s head turns to each of them several times before Goth clears his throat and gets his attention back.
Goth: It’s safe to say that the Family is now all here.
Marissa finishes kicking Hank Henry out of the ring as Bill Barnhart holds himself up by the ring ropes. Metamania is just coming to by the steel steps, but just barely. Canis backs away from Stacy and Jay, but it’s too late as Jay kicks Canis in the left shin, doubling him over. Jay lands the Golden Moment on Canis on the stage as the East Rutherford crowd boos. Goth and Fang just nod in approval as Insomnia begins to fade to black, the camera getting shots of Goth and Fang, followed by Marissa who is smiling and flipping her hair backwards a bit, followed by Bill Barnhart who is still a bit in pain from the fork stabbing, and finally up to Jay and Stacy who are both looking down at the fallen Canis…
Winners:
