Groundhog Slay 2010 - February 4th, 2010 - The WMW Arena in Cleveland, Ohio

Zana Knight Arrives Alone

[The scene shows a 2011 BMW 5-Series speeding into the parking garage area. The 2011 BMW 5-Series begins to slow down and comes to a stop. Slowly the driver door opens his door, and out steps Zana Knight with her suitcase in hand. Zana Knight with a pissed off looked on her face begins to make her way into the arena....]
 
Bill Hughes - It looks like there is truly tension in the air between the Knights....
 
Jack Gene - How is this going to effect the Hecate VS. Damien Knight match tonight?
 
Bill Hughes - I guess we just have to wait and see....

Opening Commentary

Image
[The shot switches to ringside, where Jack Gene and Bill Hughes sit, dressed in their best commenting attire, ready to call tonight's action.]

Jack Gene - And welcome everyone to Wrestling Midwest Groundhog Slay 2010!

[At that, the explosions rock the arena from the in-house fireworks display. The fans get on their feet and cheer.]

Jack Gene - We are here live from the WMW Arena in Cleveland, Ohio and we are here to welcome in another month. This is February and we are at one of the most heralded super cards in the WMW year. This is Groundhog Slay 2010, my name is Jack Gene and I sit alongside Bill Hughes, and Bill, it's here, Bill.

Bill Hughes - What's here?

Jack Gene - It... the match... the All-In Challenge. The one match where we really see who is at the top of the company. The one man, or woman, who stands tall at the end of this match as historically gone on to great things. After tonight, we'll see just how often history repeats itself.

Bill Hughes - Yeah, I just don't know how, Jack. I mean - Valora's already got the Great Lakes. She's not going to "going to do" anything, except seal her legend in WMW history.

Jack Gene - In any other match, it would be most likely I would agree with you, Bill. But the All-In... anything can happen. Tonight, we've got a full show for you folks at home, as well as the sold out crowd here in the WMW Arena. We've got quite a few titles on the line, so let's start the talk with the Heartlands Championship #1 Contender being decided as Gras-Dawg takes on Jordan Keyser - the winner takes on Hecate at GS108, next week on STO. Tonight though, she's defending it again... Damien Knight.

Bill Hughes - Let me stop you right there, Jack. What in god's name is wrong with the world. How in the hell did Damien Knight get a title shot here? I mean, come on - even Dan Pollaski is talking about it in his latest "Polla to the People" blog. This is embarrassing.

Jack Gene - Well, yes. Damien Knight has lost every match he's competed in in 2010, but... all I've heard is that Sault St. Marie's hand was forced, and he was forced to book this match. We've got Stephen Squires on the case, he'll talk about it tonight. Let's move on from that. Because, tonight, we've also got a big Shoot Championship match, as Jade once again defends her title against friend and ally, Amariie.

Bill Hughes - They haven't sounded like friends and allies, Jack. But, you've got to hand it to Amariie. She hasn't backed down, even though many see Jade as the stronger of the two.

Jack Gene - She can't back down. This is her last chance. As we heard from Sault St. Marie, if she loses tonight, she's out of the division for the rest of the year. The same fate she handed Jack Reynolds. Also on the card, Valora and Umbrage, the Hardcore Icons challenge Kronin and Ryven for the Midwest Tag League Champions.

Bill Hughes - Oh, and what a perfect ending will it be when Valora not only takes the Great Lakes Championship away from Kronin, but also his MTL Championship. I mean... priceless.

Jack Gene - Valora and Umbrage have been listed on many lists as a top Tag Team, but - there's a reason Kronin and Ryven are the Champions. Now, Druscilla... Druscilla tonight also defends her Championship, the Ace Superior Championship as she takes on Father Nathan. A match we've all been waiting for. Father Nathan has turned a page in his career, and Druscilla will do everything in her power to crush his dreams of turning another one.

Bill Hughes - She will crush his dreams. Father Nathan is weak. Druscilla is just... a beast.

[The scene fades.]

Called to the Principal's Office

[The scene opens up backstage, the doors to the arena open and Valora walks in, her gear bag slung over her shoulder, the WMW GLC slung over the same shoulder, on top of the bag strap.  A stagehand walks up to her, looking nervous.]

Stagehand - U..Ummm, Valora?  I..I mean, Ms. Salinas?

[Valora narrows her eyes and lets out an irritated breath through her nose.]

Valora - Bored now.  Beat it.

[The Stagehand starts to leave but then turns back to Valora.]

Stagehand - Well, I can't leave.  I..I have a message for you.

Valora - 1.

[The stagehand looks nervous and confused but decides to continue on.]

Stagehand - V..Valora.. i..it's Sault St. Marie.  He told me to tell you that he wants to see you in his office.

Valora - 2.

[The stagehand shakes in visible fear and looks at Valora.]

Stagehand - W..What should I tell him?

Valora - 3.

[Seemingly out of nowhere, Valora produces her lead pipe and cracks the stagehand in the head, sending him to the ground, unconscious.  The motion so quick, the GLC belt falls off her shoulder, caught by her bag before hitting the floor.  Valora takes the belt and kicks the stagehand.]

Valora - Can tell Sault Dick Marie, that I ain't his bitch.  I don't come because he calls.  Now if you'll excuse me, I gotta continue dominating his company.  Adios, Gringo.

[Valora then steps over the man and walks down the hall, whistling to herself.]

Adam Pyre vs The Groundhog

Written by: Adam Pyre

[The scene cuts to the arena. The crowd is abuzz with murmurs and mumbles as they await the next match. Out of the blue The PA blasts a loud and heavy drum solo. The lights on the stage flicker and blink as members of the crowd begin looking to one another, trying to figure out whose theme this belongs to. Finally, the solo ends, and the tempo kicks in. The lights continue to flicker with the rhythm as "Kill You" by Dethklok continues to play. Finally, as Pickles the Drummer begins to sing the lyrics over the PA system, Adam Pyre bursts through the curtain, a huge grin on his face.]

Jack Gene - Well, I wasn't sure exactly what to expect from that entrance, but apparently The King of Freaks decided to change his music.

Bill Hughes - That's right Jack, and who could ask for a higher profile entrance theme than one sung by the greatest band of all time, Dethklok? Let's hope Valora didn't rub off on him too much and he keeps it more than a week.

[Pyre walks out to one side of the stage, yelling and gesturing at the fans to "get on their fucking feet". His words. He runs to the other side of the stage and spit comes flying out of his mouth as he repeats his ritual. Finally, he marches down the ramp and slides into the ring, running up onto a turnbuckle and pumping the fans up once more.]

Jack Gene - Well, We've been hearing the rumors all week. Pyre wasn't happy with 'the brass' backstage when they decided, excluding the All-In Challenge later tonight, to leave Pyre off the card after he supposedly requested a match. So now Pyre has taken to a crusade on WMW, starting with what he calls "The company mascot", The WMW Groundhog. Now frankly Bill, I always thought that Groundhog's Slay just happened to be the name of our February pay per view. Have you heard of or seen WMW's apparent resident groundhog?

Bill Hughes - Well of course I have Jack, because William Hughes is always on the pulse of WMW. But I don't know what Pyre hopes to gain with this match. That little rodent is a vicious bastard.  It doesn't surprise me that you've never heard of the groundhog Jack, because you lose at life.

Jack Gene - …

[Pyre made sure to grab a mic as Bill and Jack were bantering. He maces around the ring a few times, grinning wide. Every time he raises the mic to his lips, the crowd begins to cheer again. Pyre just continues to pace and smile, trying to get a word in.]

Jack Gene - The crowd sure seems to have turned around on Adam in the last few months. Pyre himself said last week that he was trying to turn over a new leaf so to speak, and it seems as if the crowd's been waiting to embrace him all along.

Bill Hughes - Yeah… I'm not so sure Pyre should be worrying about what the crowd thinks. What he should be worrying about is helping out AWS Man (also known as Bill) whenever and wherever he can. That's his real job.

Jack Gene - Well actually Bill, Pyre was a very accomplished superstar in DC--

Bill Hughes - Nobody cares.

[The crowd is finally starting to settle down as Pyre raises the mic to his mouth once more. He grins and waves his arms about like Val Venis.]

Adam Pyre - Helloooooooooooooooooooooooo Cleveland…

[The crowd goes nuts again as Pyre licks his teeth and grins. He exhales aggressively out of his nose before speaking again]

Adam Pyre - Thought I'd spice up that oldie but goodie just a lil bit…

[Pyre smiles again and holds his fingers up in the 'this much' position before continuing.]

Adam Pyre - So, y'all know why I'm out here right?

[Pyre holds the mic over his head and the crowd screams YEAH!]

Adam Pyre - Wow, you guys are hawt tonight eh? But just for like the two of you that didn't say anything… you know who you are… I'm out here tonight to send a message. Because I-D-K if you guys actually have been listening to my crazy ranting and ravings (for once), but I've had enough. Week in, week out, down I walk, down walks the other guy we fight, other guy wins and aw darn, look at poor old Pyre, he's gotta scrape himself off the mat, nothing to show for it.

[Pyre's smile has faded a little bit. It's still there, but it's dim.]

Adam Pyre - Well dammit, I got plenty to show for it! Does anyone talk about all the Killing Jokes I did? Like how bout the one in the Ace in the Hole match last year? Or how bout the one I did to Vyper off the balcony? No? Alright, what about when I did it in the frostbite brawl last week? Nope, don't remember that one either eh? Maybe LAST FREAKING WEEK when I did it to like everyone on the roster at once?

[Pyre swings around in the middle of the ring and points at the stage.]

Adam Pyre - But apparently that's not good enough for you guys back there, is it? Apparently, if one hasn't put a title around their waist in nearly a year, they're just worthless, aren't they? God forbid they actually bust their asses to entertain all these fine people seated around this ring? I mean, it's not like you're paying us to be entertainers, right?

[Pyre pans his pointed finger around the crowd as he finishes up his last line.]

Adam Pyre - Well NAY NAY I SAY! Gather round everybody, because when I first stepped foot in this ring, nearly a year ago, I called myself the King of Freaks, and to this day I've made sure to live up to that title. I don't do it for the accolades, I don't do it because it sounds cool, even though, come on, it totally does… I do it because every sinew of my muscle, every bleeding wound that has been sliced open, every ugly scar on my body says I am a Freak, and not just a Freak, but the best, the brightest, the highest Freak there could ever be, and if you boys in the back that book us can't handle that well no worries bro, cause tonight, I GOT THIS!!!

[The crowd is rallying into a frenzy, frothing at the bit to see Pyre fight a groundhog.]

Adam Pyre - So come on, send your boy down here, let me show him just how I got this crown, and why all my subjects chant my name at every corner. Maybe then you'll think twice before you decide that a match isn't worth it for ADAM FRIGGIN PYRE!!!

[Pyre slams the mic down on the mat, causing it to bounce with such force that it flies over the rope. His eyes are wide and his face is tense. With every breath his lip quivers just a little bit more. He stands in the middle of the ring and gestures The Groundhog to come on down. An Alarm clock is heard over the PA, followed by Sonny and Cher's "I Got You Babe" as Stephen Squires walks down holding a live groundhog. Squires looks extremely nervous as the groundhog fidgets in his hands.]

Bill Hughes - Well don't forget to wear your booties today kiddies--

Jack Gene - CAUSE ITS COLD OUT THERE!!!

Bill Hughes - The National Weather Service is calling for a "Big Blizzard thing"

Jack Gene - Thaaaat's right but the biggest question on everybody's lips…

Bill Hughes - Chapped lips.

Jack Gene - That's right their Chapped lips is, do you think Phil is gonna come out and see his shadow?

Bill Hughes - Pughsatoney Phil!

Jack Gene - That's right wood chuck chuckers it's…

Bill Hughes and Jack Gene - GROUNDHOG'S DAY!!!

[Squires hands the groundhog to Pyre. Pyre holds it up to his face and looks it dead in the eyes, muttering insults to it as Squires dashes to the mic that Pyre spiked. Squires quickly slides into the ring.]

Stephen Squires - Whoa whoa whoa whoa Pyre! What do you think you're doing?!

[Pyre looks at Squires, stunned at his audacity. He mouths, in a doi gesture, "I'm going to fight the groundhog!"]

Stephen Squires - You can't fight this Groundhog Pyre! When you asked me to do this, I thought we were just doing a publicity stunt! Do you know how angry PETA would be if we let you fight a live groundhog?

[Pyre motions Squires to come closer, getting Squires to hold the mic under his face since his hands are full.]

Adam Pyre - Are you freaking kidding me Squires?? You wait till now to tell me this? These people paid good money to see Adam Pyre fight THE Groundhog, and you're just going to take it away from them, just like that?!

Stephen Squires - Listen Pyre, we could both lose our jobs. I shouldn't have even handed it to you! Just please… everyone has had their fun… just hand the groundhog back to me.

[Pyre scowls as Squires as he sets the mic back down in the ring and then squats through the ropes. He stands next to the apron facing the ramp and beckons Pyre to give him the groundhog like a baby. Pyre lets out a frustrated sigh and lumbers over to Squires. He hands Squires the groundhog gingerly, and makes sure to tell him that he just may have made an enemy of another TDA member this day. The crowd boos as Squires hobbles back up the ramp. Pyre reaches down and grabs the mic.]

Adam Pyre - Well that freaking poop-head. See? I knew it! I knew that the WMW brass just was too afraid to face me! Because you know that I've been hitting the nail on the head all freaking week! Well that's ok. That's just fine WMW. I'm not gonna let you send your little toothpick man out here and spoil my good time. I said that you guys paid to see Adam Pyre vs The Groundhog, and Adam Pyre vs The Groundhog YOU SHALL RECEIVE!!!

[Pyre gestures to the stage and once again the Alarm Clock rings and "I Got You Babe" strikes up on the PA.]

Bill Hughes - Well don't forget to wear your booties today kiddies--

Jack Gene - CAUSE ITS COLD OUT THERE!!!

Bill Hughes - The National Weather Service is calling for a "Big Blizzard thing"

Jack Gene - Thaaaat's right but the biggest question on everybody's lips…

Bill Hughes - Chapped lips.

Jack Gene - That's right their Chapped lips is, do you think Phil is gonna come out and see his shadow?

Bill Hughes - Pughsatoney Phil!

Jack Gene - That's right wood chuck chuckers it's…

Bill Hughes and Jack Gene - GROUNDHOG'S DAY!!!

[The announce position goes silent, assumingly because Jack and Bill can't understand what's going on. For some reason they're compelled to repeat this odd combination of lines. Anyway, so we're watching this groundhog thing, right? As the music continues to play, a full on Groundhog mascot comes bursting out from the curtain. The crowd goes absolutely nuts as The Groundhog walks down the ramp, looking down every so often and pointing at its feet, showing off the shadow cast by the lights in the arena. The Groundhog reaches the ring and rolls into it, making sure to keep its head on. It stands toe to toe with Pyre, who raises his mic back up.]

Adam Pyre - So let me ask you "Phil", are you feeling lucky?

[The Groundhog nods.]

Adam Pyre - I've been waiting all week for this. This is going to be bigger than Hogan and Andre, than Sting and Flair, than Michaels and Hart. You and I, our paths were destined to cross at one point or another.

[Pyre turns to the crowd.]

Adam Pyre - So let me ask you Cleveland, ARE YOU RE--

[The Groundhog suddenly shoves Pyre into the ropes, forcing him to drop the mic. Pyre turns around, half angry, half confused. He holds his hand up to his face and lets a perturbed breath out onto his fingers as he wiggles them. He begins to should a bit at The Groundhog, something about "the plan" and that shove not being a part of it. The Groundhog simply shakes it off and points to the crowd, gesturing that it thought it was a good build of tension. Yeah, use your imagination.]

Jack Gene - Well I'm not too sure, but if I had to guess I think Pyre might have had this whole thing fixed. From what I can gather, things aren't going the way they should.

Bill Hughes - I can't believe I ever quoted Groundhog's Day with you. I mean you must be the stupidest man on the planet. Of course Pyre planned this, it was supposed to be a big stick it to the man for the higher ups at WMW. The Groundhog better stick to the plan, before Pyre decides to kick his face off.

[Pyre shakes off the shove and locks up with The Groundhog in a Collar and Elbow. Pyre's grin begins to appear again as he walks around the ring with The Groundhog in a headlock. Once he comes full circle, however, the Groundhog shucks him off and shoves him into the ropes. Pyre grabs the top rope and stares daggers at The Groundhog. The Groundhog waves it off as an accident and bends over, pointing at its head a la Kurt Angle. Pyre walks back over and gingerly applies another headlock, only to be shucked off again. Pyre fumes once more and wastes no time in locking in a third headlock. The Groundhog shucks Pyre off for the third time, this time the force is too much and Pyre can't grab onto the top rope. Instead, he rebounds back to the center of the ring where The Groundhog throws a shoulder into him. Pyre's head bounces off the mat hard as he lands. He cradles it instantly as The Groundhog begins to do arm circles, finally placing a hand to its ear a la Hulk Hogan.]

Jack Gene - Well it appears The Groundhog wants to give the crowd a little show tonight.

Bill Hughes - This guy is getting cheeky. He better do his job.

Jack Gene - Weren't you saying earlier that Pyre was the one needing to do his job.

Bill Hughes - Well The Groundhog needs to do his job more than Pyre needed to do his job before, however that doesn't excuse Pyre from doing his job when AWS Man (also known as Bill) tells him that he needs to do his freakin' job.

Jack Gene - That made my head hurt.

[The Groundhog has since hit all four sides of the ring with "The Ear" and is now doing the Hogan Flexes. Pyre gets to his feet slowly, still grabbing the back of his head. He spins The Groundhog around and begins yelling in its face.]

Bill Hughes - Talk about pissing off PETA.

Jack Gene - That's not even a… and Pyre already… you know what, no. If I talk to you any more I'm going to have an aneurism.

[Pyre is still shouting in The Groundhog's face. The Groundhog tilts its head to one side and finally unloads on Pyre with a vicious slap.]

Jack Gene - OH SNAP!

[Pyre keeps his head faced in the direction it was forced to look. A tongue firmly planted in his cheek, he begins to nod slowly before leaping up and going for a Six Minute Miracle. The Groundhog ducks it and when Pyre turns back around, it grabs him by the head and left arm, driving them both into the mat as it leaps and falls back.

Jack Gene - That was the Hades Bound!!! The Groundhog just hit a Hades Bound on Adam Pyre!!!

[The Groundhog goes straight into a cover, and the crowd counts along. 1…2…3!!! The crowd goes crazy for the result.]

Jack Gene - I don't believe it! For the first time in the history of WMW, "The Groundhog" picks up a win! At Groundhog's Slay no less!

Bill Hughes - I… I just… I have no words.

[Pyre is still out on the mat, mouth wide open and tongue lolling out of it. The Groundhog stands over Pyre with a foot on his chest. It spreads its arms out like wings, outstretching its fingers to resemble feathers. Finally, it reaches for the costume's head, ripping it off to reveal The Groundhog to really be Hecate.]

Jack Gene - I don't believe it! It's Hecate!!! She must have swapped with whoever Pyre had planned to put in the costume!

[Hecate tosses the head over the ropes before sliding underneath them. She walks backwards up the ramp, a smirk slightly resembling Pyre's spread across her face as she continues to the back. Officials run past her to attend to Pyre.]

Jack Gene - Well we all know that Hecate still holds some anger towards Pyre for him having her drugged at GS 101, and perhaps Hecate thinks that it really was Pyre who sneak attacked her last week at GS 107. I gotta wonder what this does to Pyre's chances later tonight during the All-In.

Bill Hughes - Well it's obvious, Pyre's chances just got flushed down the toilet thanks to Hecate. It doesn't really matter though, he would have just had to go over the ropes anyway when it came down to him and AWS Man (also known as Bill). I hope he didn't just screw the pooch on AWS's threepeat…

Jack Gene - I guess we'll just have to see later on tonight.

[The scene fades.]

Gras-Dawg vs. Jordan Keyser is up next!

[The shot changes to show a split camera. Gras-Dawg talking to a stagehand on one side, and Jordan Keyser warming up in his locker room on the other.] 

Jack Gene - Stay tuned! Our next match is going to pit Gras-Dawg against Jordan Keyser, as both of these new talents compete to decide who will fight Hecate next week at Graveyard Shift 108! Now, let's turn it over to John and Stephen Squires with their thoughts. 

[The shot fades.]

Heartlands Number One Contender Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a shot of Gras-Dawg and Jordan Keyser in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - We've had several new faces around Wrestling Midwest in the month of January and all of them via for a chance to step up and earn a title shot. In a few moments we will have two of the new lions in WMW going at it to determine the number one contender for the Heartland's title. The winner of this match will go on to face the winner of Hecate vs Damian Knight at Graveyard Shift 108.

John Squires - This is a huge opportunity for both of these young men, Gras-Dawg a street fighter from New Orleans and Jordan Keyser, from the defunct WTF. Looking at the tale of the tape, both men are about the same size and build with Gras-Dawg being a bit heavier than Keyser and both have similar styles in the ring.

Stephen Squires - Both of these men are looking very confident going into the match and from their promo's this week, we can expect this match to be physical and dirty with neither one holding back inside the ring.

John Squires -Gras-Dawg has been really impressive inside the ring, may not like his style but he's shown he can get the job done once he steps through the ropes and the same can be said for Jordan Keyser, who has been rolling over his opponents as well. The winner of this match will have earned their shot at the Heartlands Title and could very well be the next Heartlands Champion.

Stephen Squires - I'm having a hard time deciding who I like in this one, both men have the talent and skills to pull off the win, what are your thoughts on it John?

John Squires - Experience wise, the edge has to go to Jordan Keyser, he's been there before and got the job done in another fed, now granted you can't always go by what someone has done in the past. I think Gras-Dawg is going to have the edge athletically in this match which might be enough to counter the experience edge that Keyser has, it's going to be close but I'm leaning towards Jordan Keyser to pick up the win in the end.

Stephen Squires - Really? It may be close, but I'm thinking Gras-Dawg's athletic skills along with his desire to prove himself will propel him over the top. Keyser might have the experience, but he's also been there before and could easily overlook this match already counting on having it in the bag. The real question is, how do these two stack up against their possible opponents, either the current champion Hecate or her challenger tonight Damian Knight?

John Squires - Whichever one of these two wins this match, they will propose a real challenge to the Heartlands champion, whether it's Hecate or Damian Knight. If it's Damian Knight who they face, his power advantage will be lessened but the challenger will still have the advantage in speed over him which could make it one difficult match. And if it's Hecate they face, they will have their work cut out for them, she's a demon inside the ring, but either Gras-Dawg or Keyser has the size and speed to pose a real challenge for her, and right now they pose the best chance of taking the Heartlands belt from Hecate before she catches Jade's record.

Stephen Squires - I will tell you one thing, I'm looking forward to that match at Graveyard Shift 108 and looking forward to seeing which of these two outstanding new stars here in WMW will be stepping up next week. And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned!

[The shot fades.]

Gras-Dawg vs Jordan Keyser

Written by: Jade

Jack Gene - And now we get to a match I've been waiting to see.  Two of our brand new up and coming new signings.  Gras-Dawg and Jordan Keyser.  Both of these men are 2-0, both men have victories over Wone who is himself a former Great Lakes Champion.  Now, they face off here for the right to move on to Graveyard Shift 108 and face the Heartlands Champion for a chance to Heartlands Champion!  Who do you think is gonna win?

Bill Hughes - Hmm, tough call.  I kinda like both of these guys, but I have to give the edge to Keyser.  He made some great points.  Gras-Dawg is a great street fighter, but that doesn't translate into being a good wrestler.  Keyser is an experienced wrestler and is going to be ready.  The only real advantage that Gras-Dawg has is that there is no real video of this guy in action.  There's film of two matches for him, so Gras-Dawg could very well surprise Jordan Keyser here.  Either way, this should be an awesome match.

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, the next match is set for one fall and is to determine the number one contender for the Heartlands title!  Introducing first.  He hails from Nueces County, Texas.  He stands 6 feet, 5 inches tall and weighs in at 230lbs.  He is the Executioner, JORDAN KEYSER!!!

['Critical Acclaim' by Avenged Sevenfold plays and Jordan Keyser makes his way out from the back wearing his black knee length black work-out shorts with a gold X at the bottom of each leg. He also sports a long sleeve hooded t-shirt with EXECUTIONER written in gold across the front. On the back it says PERFECT EXECUTION in bleeding gold script.  He walks down, ignoring his surroundings and the chorus of boos that rain down on him for the most part but stops to argue with some fans, shaking his head in disgust as he makes his way to the ring and steps inside, checking the ring ropes and then waiting calmly for his opponent to come out.]

Jack Gene - Jordan is out here and surprise surprise, it turns out the WMW crowd doesn't like being insulted and thus doesn't like him much.

Bill Hughes - This man is a big talent!  He practically carried WTF on his back and kept it afloat!  He was important enough for WMW to make a big deal about signing, at any rate.

Wayne Inkster - And introducing his opponent, hailing from New Orleans, Louisiana.  He stands 6 feet, 8 inches tall and weighs in at 280lbs, he is GRAS-DAWG!!!!

['Get Up' by 50 Cent plays over the speakers and Gras-Dawg walks out with a cocky strut, holding a mic and singing/rapping along to the lyrics.  He wears baggy jeans worn below his hips and a baggy New Orleans Saints Jersey with a Saints hat tilted sideways on his head.  As he continues his cocky strut to the ring, he continues to rap, sometimes insulting his opponent as he does so, before sliding into the ring and holding both hands up into the air basking in the Mixed reaction of the crowd as he does so.  Jordan watches him from the ring and shakes his head, rolling his eyes and pointing to his wrist as if a watch were there telling Gras-Dawg to hurry up.

Once in the ring, Gras-Dawg removes his bling and tucks them into his pockets.  He pushes the ref off when the ref tries to search him for weapons and continues his tactic of getting under the opponents skin by walking towards Keyser, who matches and the stop stand toe to toe trading insults.  Keyser slaps Gras-Dawg across the face and Gras-Dawg stands there for a moment and throws a big punch, leveling Keyser, who gets right back to his feet and the two start trading punches as John Law calls for the bell and the match starts.]

Jack Gene - Well, it didn't take long for this to get going, these two have developed a real dislike for each other.  From what I gather, it's almost as if Jordan Keyser considers Gras-Dawg an insult to the business.

Bill Hughes - Well, I like Gras-Dawg as much as the next man, but there is a certain skill set you need for this business.  Jordan Keyser has skill, he has survived in this business for awhile, Gras-Dawg is a greenhorn, that's what they call rookies down in Texas and such, you know.  So Jordan is going to see what Gras-Dawg has right here tonight.

[In the ring, both men continue to trade punches, they both try for a knee to the gut at the same time and thus block each other, though Keyser staggers back, knocked off balance by the blow and Gras-Dawg charges in, knocking Keyser down with a clothesline, bringing a slight cheer from the crowd.  Gras-Dawg continues his run to the ropes, jumping onto the second rope and springing off, turning in mid air as he brings his fist around and down, nailing Keyser in the side of the head and sending him back to the mat as he gets back to his feet.  The crowd cheers in response again and Gras-Dawg does some showboating in the ring, dancing in place and playing to the crowd for a second before dropping an elbow on Keyser.]

Jack Gene - And the match is starting to get rolling here, Gras-Dawg has the upper hand at the moment as both men are sticking to what brought them to the dance, brawling skills and downside for that is brawling is right up Gras-Dawg's alley, but at the same time, Gras-Dawg is doing a bit too much showboating and against a veteran like Keyser, that can get you in trouble.

Bill Hughes - You can't just say Gras-Dawg is a better brawler because he's black, you racist bastard.  Jordan Keyser is from Texas.  Ever meet Texan who couldn't brawl?  That's like meeting an Irishman who doesn't drink.

Jack Gene - Okay...excusing your own display of racism for the moment.  I did not, at any time say Gras-Dawg had an edge in brawling because he was black.  Look at his profile, he was born and raised in the lower 9th ward of New Orleans, an area known for poverty and high crime rate.  He survived Hurricane Katrina where everyday was a fight for survival.  Jordan Keyser, from what I've seen, relies on his money to solve his problems so yes... I think Gras-Dawg is the better brawler.

Bill Hughes - I can't believe I'm forced to sit next to such a bigot.

[Jack Gene rolls his eyes and shakes his head as in the ring, both men get up and lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, Gras-Dawg holds his own for a few seconds, due to his size but Keyser lures him him and then moves behind him, locking the man up in a hammerlock.  Gras-Dawg tries for an elbow strike but Keyser ducks out of the way, pulling up on the hammerlock as he does so before pulling Gras-Dawg in close and taking him to the mat with a German suplex, causing the big man to grunt out in pain at the impact of the move.  Jordan Keyser jumps to his feet and paintbrushes Gras-Dawg on the head as he gets up then puts a big boot to Gras-Dawg's head, sending him back to the mat before Keyser stomps the man over and over again.  John Law finally pushes Keyser off, allowing Gras-Dawg to get to his feet as Keyser yells at the ref and pushes him off, threatening to punch Law if he should do that again.  Keyser then runs into the ropes and charges full speed trying for a massive clothesline, but Gras-Dawg sees the move coming and runs into the ropes behind him, charging off and launching himself into the air, taking Keyser to the mat hard with a big flying shoulder tackle.  Gras-Dawg then runs to the ropes again and makes his way towards Keyser, taking his time with the last three steps, brushing his shoulder off and slamming his fist into Jordan Keyser's face as he drops down.  Gras-Dawg pulls Jordan Keyser to his feet, but Jordan counters with a low blow, doubling Gras-Dawg over and Jordan Keyser then takes advantage, taking Gras-Dawg to the mat with a DDT.]

Jack Gene - This match is going back and forth here folks!  Both these men have made it clear they intend to remain unbeaten and move on to that Heartlands title shot.

Bill Hughes - Well Jordan Keyser better find a way to put Gras-Dawg down for the count, or he's going to look mighty silly given all the talking he did about being a better wrestler then Gras-Dawg

[Jordan Keyser pulls Gras-Dawg to his feet and leads him near the ropes, hooking him for a vertical suplex and lifting him up, turning to face the ropes and dropping him neck first over the top rope, causing Gras-Dawg to bounce off the rope and tumble to the floor below, landing in a heap.  Jordan Keyser smiles as John Law begins the count.  Waiting til the count of four to slide out onto the floor and pulling Gras-Dawg to his feet.  Jordan Keyser glances behind him as Referee John Law gets to the count of four once more and then Keyser whips Gras-Dawg into the steel steps, Gras-Dawg hitting shoulder first, hard enough to hit them, dislodge them and tumble over them.  Keyser nods to himself and slides into the ring.  At the count of eight, Gras-Dawg uses the steps to pull himself to his feet and then slides into the ring as well, Keyser waiting for him with a couple of boots to the head.]

Jack Gene - Jordan Keyser seems to have heard you and is definitely in control of the match now, thanks to that Garotte Vil move of his, and then whipping Gras-Dawg into the steel steps.

Bill Hughes - Well, this is a cutthroat business, Jack and that's why Jordan Keyser has done as well as he has.  He understands that, he isn't here to make friends.  He's here to beat the crap out of people.

[Jordan Keyser pulls Gras-Dawg to his feet and turns the man around so that Keyser is looking at Gras-Dawg's back.  Jordan Keyser then grabs Gras-Dawg's arms and turns around slowly, so that Keyser now has his back to Gras-Dawg, taking him to the mat in an unprettier move.  Jordan Keyser then rolls over and makes the pin, John Law drops into position and counts 1.....2.....Gras-Dawg kicks out!  Keyser slams his hand on the mat and then pulls Gras-Dawg to his feet, but while John Law is out of position, Gras-Dawg hauls off and punches Keyser in the groin, doubling the man over, before stepping to the side of the man and power lifting him over his head onto his shoulders back first.  Gras-Dawg yells out as he runs forward and jumps into the air, slamming Jordan Keyser to the mat face first with a version of the reverse Death Valley Driver.  Gras-Dawg also goes right into the cover and again John Law counts 1.....2.....Jordan Keyser kicks out!  Gras-Dawg shakes his head in frustration and gets to his feet, pulling Keyser up and whipping him into the corner.]

Jack Gene - Gras-Dawg starting to fight back and build some momentum.  I thought it was over when Keyser hit the Lethal Injection on him, but Gras Dawg fought back, and answered with the Def Jam Driver, which also failed to keep Keyser down, Gras-Dawg whips Keyser into the corner, let's see what he has in mind here.

Bill Hughes - Don't worry, Keyser is just making this worth his time.  He'll put the young upstart down soon enough.  Gras-Dawg is a criminal after all and well they don't call Keyser the executioner for nothing.  And Texans know how to deal with criminals.

[In the ring Gras-Dawg dances and slowly runs in place, building up steam before running into the corner and nailing Jordan Keyser with a big body splash.  He then smirks and lifts Keyser up and sets him up on the turnbuckle.  Gras-Dawg backs up and winks towards the crowd as he charges forward once more but this time plants a big boot onto the chin of Jordan Keyser, sending the man flying off the turnbuckle, tumbling onto the steel steps and floor below.  Gras-Dawg dances and celebrates in the ring as the crowd chants 'Holy Shit!']

Jack Gene - Wow!  Gras-Dawg just sent Jordan Keyser out of the ring from the turnbuckle with that big boot!  Jordan Keyser will likely be feeling that move for awhile.

Bill Hughes - Ya think!?  But I think Gras-Dawg should be following up on the offense instead of dancing in the ring.  It's a rookie mistake.

[As Jordan Keyser gets to his feet, Gras-Dawg charges forward and steps up to the top turnbuckle, leaping off and nails Keyser with a massive double ax handle, sending Keyser right back to the floor.  John Law yells for both men to get back in the ring.  Gras-Dawg pulls Jordan Keyser to his feet and whips Keyser into the barricades.  Gras-Dawg walks in slowly after him, grabbing the beer from a fan and throwing it in Keyser's face before slapping Keyser and laughing a bit before Keyser responds by grabbing Gras-Dawg by the collar and pummeling him with repeated punches to the face, driving Gras-Dawg back towards the ring before Gras-Dawg finally catches one of the punches and locks Jordan Keyser into a Full Nelson before he places his right leg in front of Keyser's and slams the man into the floor face first.  Gras-Dawg jumps up to his feet and rolls into the ring, getting to his feet, dancing in the middle of the ring.]

Jack Gene - Well, looks like Gras-Dawg took your advice, Bill.  Gras-Dawg went airborne and when a man the size of Gras-Dawg goes airborne, that's a scary situation, if you're the guy he's flying towards.

Bill Hughes - But come on!  A Double Axe Handle?  Seriously?  Has that move been used at all since like the 80's?  Gras-Dawg needs to talk to Valora if he plans to go airborne.

[Jordan Keyser pulls himself to his feet and rolls into the ring, still trying to wipe the beer off his face.  Gras-Dawg dances and as he turns to face Keyser, Keyser charges forward, knocking Gras-Dawg to the mat with a clothesline.  Jordan Keyser then runs into the ropes and charges forward as Gras-Dawg gets to his feet, grabbing him from behind and driving him into the mat face first with a bulldog.  Jordan Keyser doesn't miss a beat and again runs to the ropes and charges forward, nailing Gras-Dawg with a spear as the man gets back to his feet, moving right into a mounted position and hammering Gras-Dawg with punches]

Jack Gene - Well folks, Gras-Dawg likes to showboat and it cost him dearly as Jordan Keyser has seemingly finally had enough of the young, flashy Gras-Dawg trying to show him up and has taken the offense to Gras-Dawg.

Bill Hughes - Hey, I see nothing wrong with hot dogging it a bit.  When you're better then your opponent, you have a right to let them know it.

[In the ring, John Law tries to break the men up and Keyser eventually gets off of Gras-Dawg, getting to his feet and pulling Gras-Dawg to his feet, he tries to whip Gras-Dawg into the corner, sending the man into the turnbuckle hard, following the man in and lifting Gras-Dawg onto the top turnbuckle climbing up after him, hooking him as if to go for a super plex.  He lifts Gras-Dawg up and holds him for a second...beofre dropping him head first onto the top turnbuckle in a brainbuster move as Keyser himself drops down to the mat.  The crowd groans watching the painful move and chants of 'Holy Shit!  Holy Shit! and 'WMW!  WMW!' break out.]

Jack Gene - And Jordan Keyser is going for a... My God!  He dropped Gras-Dawg head first onto the turnbuckle!  He could have just killed the man!

Bill Hughes - It's the brainbustAHHHHHHH!!!

[Gras-Dawg collapses into a heap in the mat, not moving at all.  John Law pushes Jordan Keyser off to a neutral corner so he can check on Gras-Dawg.  Keyser retreats with a smirk on his face holding his hand out, imitating a small handgun makes a shooting motion towards Gras-Dawg.  John Law bends down, taking a knee and checking on Gras-Dawg.  As he does so, a chant of 'Let's go Gras-Dawg *clap clap, clap clap clap*.  Let's Go Gras-Dawg *clap clap, clap clap clap* breaks out and John Law looks up and starts to call for medics when Gras-Dawg moves slowly, fighting to his feet and nodding to John Law, pushing him away and nodding towards Jordan Keyser.  Keyser walks out of the corner, rubbing his neck, mocking Gras-Dawg and Gras-Dawg charges forward, punching Keyser dead in the jaw with a big right hand, then a left hand, then spinning around and nailing Jordan Keyser with a big right handed discus punch that sends Keyser to the mat.  Gras-Dawg pulls Jordan Keyser to his feet and whips him into the ropes and charges after him, nailing him with a clothesline right after he comes off the ropes, sending him staggering back into the ropes where he leans, stunned.  Gras-Dawg calls out 'Bourbon Street Beatdown, Motha Fucka!' and hammers Jordan Keyser with rights and lefts, beating the man viciously until he drops to the where he then grabs the top rope for leverage and stomps and kicks Jordan Keyser until John Law steps in and pulls him off.]

Jack Gene - Bourbon Street Beatdown!  Looks like Gras-Dawg was good to go after that devastating brain buster move that Jordan Keyser got in on him, a move which seems to have fired Gras-Dawg up and he is taking it to the Executioner here.

Bill Hughes - But that was bullshit!  Since when is there injury time outs in wrestling?!  If John Law thought Gras-Dawg couldn't continue the match, he should have called for the bell!  Oh, and Jack it's not brain buster.  It's BrainbustAHHHHHH.  Learn this stuff or you'll never be as cool as me.

[As Gras-Dawg is backed off of Jordan Keyser, Gras-Dawg spits on Keyser.  Jordan Keyser pulls himself to his feet, and wipes the spit off calmly, before charging, going for a clothesline.  Gras-Dawg pushes John Law in front of him and towards Keyser and the executioner takes Law's head off with the clothesline.  Both Jordan Keyser and Gras-Dawg look at Law's downed body and then look at each other, smirking a bit as they run towards each other, trading right hands until Gras-Dawg kicks Keyser in the groin doubling the man over then, taking him to the mat with a scissors kick.  Gras-Dawg then rolls out of the ring and walks over to the dislodged steel steps and lifts them up, placing them into the ring.  Gras-Dawg comes into the ring and picks the stairs up again, lifting them up with ease as he waits for Keyser to get to his feet.  As he does, Gras-Dawg charges forward but at the last second, Keyser takes Gras-Dawg to the mat with a drop toe-hold sending Gras-Dawg into the steps face first and busting him open.  Jordan Keyser shakes his head chuckling to himself as he uses his foot to push the steps out of the ring before leaving the ring and grabbing a steel chair, folding it up and walking back into the ring, holding the chair at the ready, waiting for Gras-Dawg to get up.  Gras-Dawg gets up, turns around and sees Keyser rearing the chair back and Gras-Dawg punches the chair back into the executioner's face, sending Keyser to the mat and forcing him to drop the chair.  Gras-Dawg picks the chair up and holds the chair, nodding to himself, an evil smirk on his face.  As Keyser gets up and turns around, Gras-Dawg nails him with a vicious chair shot that busts Keyser open as well and dents the chair, Keyser standing there, dazed for a moment before slumping to the ground.  Gras-Dawg nods and toss the chair out of the ring and revives John Law.]

Jack Gene - I don't believe it!  Gras-Dawg sacrificed John Law to save himself!  And because of the ref being down, both of our competitors are bleeding as they brought weapons into the match.

Bill Hughes - Brilliant move by Gras-Dawg, when in doubt, let your foe knock the ref out!

[Gras-Dawg pulls Jordan Keyser to his feet, and whips him into the turnbuckle.  Law gets to his feet and turns to watch as Gras-Dawg sets Keyser on the turnbuckle and climbs up after him.  He hookss Keyser as if going for a super plex, but he lifts Keyser up, holds him steady and jumps backwards, taking Keyser down with a vertical suplex into a tombstone piledriver from the top rope, bringing the third 'Holy Shit!'  chant of the match, Gras-Dawg goes right into the cover, collapsing on top of Jordan Keyser and John Law makes the count 1.....2......3!  The bell rings and 'Get Up' by 50 cent begins to play over the PA as John Law helps Gras-Dawg to his feet and raises his hand in the air.]

Jack Gene - Voodoo Plunge!!  From the top rope!!  What an ending to this match!

Bill Hughes - Heh, well I don't know if Jordan will be pleased or somewhat proud, it looks like Gras-Dawg took a page from the Executioner playbook and got the win tonight! 

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner and the number one contender to the Heartlands Title, GRAS-DAWG!!!

[Gras-Dawg calls for a mic and breathing hard, in obvious pain from the match he and Keyser have just been through speaks:]

Gras-Dawg - Who Dat?  Jordan Keyser?  Fuck no!  Gras-Dawg that!  Don't forget it, bitch.

[Gras-Dawg spikes the mic on Jordan Keyser and walks off, heading for the back.]

Jack Gene - Gras-Dawg a little less the genial in his victory, but then neither one of these men could really count themselves as gentlemen.  I think throughout the course of this match, we witnessed the birth of what just might become a big time rivalry between these two.  But tonight, Gras-Dawg was the better fighter and now he goes to Graveyard Shift 108 to face Hecate for the Heartlands title in what will definitely prove to be her toughest challenge yet.

Bill Hughes - Gras-Dawg gets the win tonight, but I agree with you Jack, I don't think we've the last of Gras-Dawg vs Jordan Keyser.  Now we get to see Hecate vs Gras-Dawg and that's going to be an epic match up.

The Silent Treatment

[The scene shows a 2010 Chevy Camaro speeding into the parking garage area. The 2010 Chevy Camaro begins to slow down and comes to a stop. Slowly the driver door opens his door, and out steps Damien Knight. Damien Knight with a determined looked on his face begins to make his way into the arena, but stopped in his footsteps by Louie Cwik. Louie Cwik approaches Damien Knight for an interview.]
 
Louie Cwik - Mr. Knight! Could I get a moment of your time? I would like to get your comments in reference to tonight's match with Hecate, and also an update on the situation with you, and your wife, Zana Knight.  
 
[Damien Knight walks right pass Louie Cwik as if he didn't exist, and proceeds into the arena. Louie Cwik is standing there with a dumb founded look on his face shocked by the treatment of Damien Knight.]

Hecate prepares for her match

[The scene opens up with Hecate slipping past the Daughters of Darkness group locker room after her "match" with Adam Pyre and heading down the hall to another room, where she stops and, opening the door to a store room and pulls out a cloth covered cage, a cage that looks a lot like the cage Stephen Squires put the groundhog in. The Dark Priestess grins at the camera and quietly walks down the hall to another empty locker room, opening the door long enough for the camera to see an altar and mystical symbols drawn all over the floor or the locker room. Hecate pauses and turns her head back towards the camera.]

Hecate -Can't call a Pay Per View Groundhog Slay without some groundhogs get..well...lets just say this one will go to a very special use.

[The Dark Priestess holds up the covered cage a moment before giggling and slipping fulling into the room, the camera catching the Dark Priestess kneeling down in the center of the symbols and starting to pull the cover off the cage as her other hands picks up a ritual knife before the door fully closes, the only sounds heard are soft chants coming from within the room.]

Jack Gene - She can't really be going to do that ....can she ?

Bill Hughes - Hell if I know, but rock on if she does...we would have like our own female Ozzy if she does!

[The chanting grows louder, increasing in pitch until suddenly everything falls silent for several moments, until a faint animal like sound is heard and then silence again. The seconds tick by until finally the door opens up, to reveal Hecate in her ring attire, the empty cage on the floor with what looks like blood on the ritual knife which is laying beside the cage. Hecate herself grins as she takes a sip from an ornate goblet, red liquid staining her lips before she licks them clean then lifts the goblet another time, draining it of the liquid before setting it down and closing the door behind her.]

Jack Gene - I...I think I'm going to be sick....PETA is going to love this...

Bill Hughes - It's her religious right, so PETA can't really do a thing..

[The scene fades as Hecate turns and makes her way by the Daughters of Darkness locker room where she opens the door and waits long enough for Jade to exit before turning and making her way towards the ring entrance.]

Heartlands Championship Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a shot of Hecate and Damian Knight in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - Coming up next we have the Heartlands title on the line with the champion Hecate taking on Damian Knight in a Last Chance title match. I'm still not sure how all this came about, cause no one expected Damian Knight to get a title shot at all.

John Squires - You're right there Stephen, not only did Damian Knight lose to Hecate at Blizzard and again at Graveyard Shift 106, he also lost to Amariie Maerthos at Graveyard Shift 105 and then lost a 3 on 1 handicapped match against Druscilla at Graveyard Shift 107, Damian Knight really doesn't do well against the Daughters of Darkness at all.

Stephen Squires - Yet here we are at Groundhog Slay with Damian Knight somehow getting a title shot. Perhaps you can explain it to people John, cause I am not sure I can.

John Squires - It comes down to legalities apparently, Damian Knight challenged Hecate during his promo last week and had his legal council review Hecate's promo's and they informed Damian Knight that the one line Hecate made to the boy during the promo would qualify as a Hecate's agreement to the challenge and they wrote up paperwork saying so. Said lawyers presented that document to WMW Management who had to make the match, but Damian Knight also made the stipulation of the match with his own words. 

Stephen Squires - That's right, if Damian Knight loses this match tonight, he will not be able to get another title match against the Heartlands Champion for as long as she holds the title belt. In my view, Damian Knight knows he can't beat Hecate in the ring so he's trying every other to get the belt form her but I'm foreseeing this match ending the same way all the others have...with Hecate victorious.

John Squires -We are in agreement there, Damian Knight has tried time and time again to beat Hecate and even with Zana's help he wasn't able to get the job done, and from the looks of things, he's going to be trying to go at it alone. The only chance he has got is if he's found some legal loophole in which to snare Hecate but I'm not sure what.

Stephen Squires - This is wrestling, legal battles shouldn't be any part of a wrestling event. It actually sickens me that Damian Knight has sunk to this level to try and win the Heartland's title.

John Squires - On the fortunate side, unless Damian Knight pulls off the upset of the year, we won't be calling another title match of his for awhile, at least night a Heartlands Title match.

Stephen Squires - Thank God for small wonders, I'm getting word that we are running out of time for this spot, Hecate vs Damian Knight, will this be Hecate's last night as Champion or will Damian Knight strike out again? And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned!

[The shot fades.]

Hecate (c) vs Damian Knight

Written by: Hecate

Wayne Inkster - The following contest is scheduled for one fall and will be for the Heartlands Championship. This will be a Last Chance match, if the challenger does not win this match, then they will not be able to challenge for the Heartland's title again as long as the current champion holds the belt. introducing first at a height of 7' tall and weighing 327 lbs, he is ....DAMIANNNN....The Business Man.....KNIGHTTTTT!!!!!

["You Found Me" by The Fray blasts from the PA as Damian Knight walks out of the back, pausing at the top of the entryway as pyro goes off around the entryway, adjusting his suit and tie before starting a slow calculated walk down towards the ring.]

Jack Gene - Damian Knight is looking rather focused and he's coming out here alone, we saw earlier that Zana Knight arrived separately from Damian Knight. After last week it's obvious that these two are having some issues.

Bill Hughes -
M.O.D. just needs to lock Midnight up in the basement, or better yet, chain her down in the kitchen and teach her a woman's place that's all. Just like Damian is going to teach Hecate tonight what a woman's place should be, shining the belt for a real champion like M.O.D..

Jack Gene - And you're wondering why you were not invited into the limo last week.

Bill Hughes - What is that supposed to mean?

[The arena suddenly goes black as the opening cords to Inkubus Sukkubus's "Wytches" start to play through the arena while on the WMW Big Screen images start to flash past; images of 3 candles, owls, black sheep, crossroads, 3 masks, 3 torches, groves of willow and yew trees, the images cycling through as the song plays. Suddenly a lone spot light shining down on two cloaked figures standing at the top of the entryway as the music continues. One cloaked figure steps behind the other, suggestively running hands up the first cloaked figures body before unfastening the cloak and letting it drop to the ground to show Hecate standing in black hot pants with a Jade Dragon wrapping around the her waist and a black halter top with a silvery white owl across her left breast, the Heartlands title proudly fastened around her waist. Hecate lifts her scepter up in the air before spinning around the second cloaked figure and repeating the suggestive running of her hands up the cloaked figures body before unfastening the cloak and letting it spill to the floor to reveal Jade standing there in a matching black hot pants and halter top, although on Jade the dragon is wrapped around her chest and the owl is one leg of the hot pants, pointed inwards with the Shoot title fastened proudly around her waist.]

Wayne Inkster -And his opponent and current Heartlands Champion, hailing from Delphi, Greece and coming into tonight's contest with a height of 5' 10" and weighting 157lbs, she is a member of the Daughters of Darkness and is accompanied to the ring by Jade...she is the Dark Priestess herself....HECATE!!!!!!

Jack Gene - Her entrance makes me feel wrong on so many levels it's scary, yet I just want to experience it over and over again.

Bill Hughes - Well damn, might just make a man out of you yet Jackie.

[Hecate slowly makes her way down to the ring, the single spot light following her as makes her way down towards the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd, breaking out into a jog about ten feet from the ring and when she reaches the ring, jumps up and lands in a splits on the ring apron before bending over at the waist and sliding her head and torso under the bottom rope and slithering into the ring before rising to both knees where she mutters a prayer to her Goddess with her scepter raised high. As the lights slowly raise in luminance, Hecate rises to her feet and moves over to stand on the middle turnbuckle, lifting her scepter one more time to the mixed cheers and boos of the fans before hopping off the middle turnbuckle. Moving to her corner, Hecate pulls off the silver crescent moon shaped arm bands which encircle her upper arms, placing them in the corner with her scepter and follows up by pulling the golden dragon shaped bracelets from around her wrists, revealing the black leather straps which encircle her hands and forearms in place of normal athletic tape. The Greek warrior squats and stretches using the ring ropes, her thigh high black leather boots creaking a bit as she does and the silver owl and jade dragon on each boot moves as if it were almost alive while she waits for the match to start.]

Jack Gene - Both Damian Knight and Hecate are eying each other as Damian Knight adjust his suit and tie once more, pacing along his side of the ring and Hecate sensuously lounges in the corner on her side of the ring.

Bill Hughes - She can lounge that way all she wants, I'm in no rush to stop watching.

Jack Gene - What are your thoughts for this match Bill? It seems you are favoring Damian Knight to put Hecate in her place I believe your words were, how is Damian Knight going to counter his streak of losses at the hands of the Daughters of Darkness?

Bill Hughes - Now you are putting words in my mouth, I never said M.O.D. would beat Hecate, but since you brought it up, I'll answer that question. M.O.D. needs to forget about the past matches and go in there and just flat overpower Hecate, not give her a chance to even think about mounting any offense. Just keep connecting with powerful move after powerful move and sooner or later Hecate won't be able to get up.

[Referee Luna Pier is checking both wrestlers for foreign objects and goes over the basic rules of the match, neither Damian Knight or Hecate seem to be paying to much attention to Luna's words, nodding their heads like they have heard it all before. Damian Knight looks around the ring, pausing to stare at Jade in Hecate's corner and then looks over at his empty corner with a grimace before rolling his shoulders and neck and glaring at Hecate with his condescending gaze. Referee Luna Pier sends each wrestler back to their corner after taking the Heartlands title from Hecate and showing it to both Hecate and Damian Knight, as the two retreat to their corners, Luna Pier holds the Heartlands title up in the air and turns to face each direction, to show all the fans the belt before handing it off to a ring side attendant.]
 
Jack Gene - So you are predicting that Damian Knight will win this match over Hecate then. Hecate already has two victories over Damian Knight, and one after Zana Knight interfered at any opportunity.

Bill Hughes - And tonight without Midnight here to mess things up for him, M.O.D. will complete his hostile takeover of the Heartlands division. He's done his scouting reports the last few weeks and now he's going to make Hecate pay for mistreating him.

Jack Gene - I am no so convinced that Damian Knight will be able to be victorious over Hecate, he may have size and power on the champion but Hecate is well skilled at countering larger opponents and on the mat Damian Knight's size is no longer a benefit. And Luna Pier is calling for the bell, this title match is under way.

(Ring, ring, ring)

[Hecate and Damian Knight circle each other slowly, Hecate darting in to kick at Damian's leg but the challenger apparently learned from previous matches and levels Hecate with a short surging clothesline that drops Hecate to the mat, the champion rolling out of the way as Damian Knight stomps down where she was with a huge boot. Hecate rises first to one knee, then to both feet with her eyes on Damian Knight the whole time, Damian Knight smirking at her with an arrogant look. The two slowly move close again, Hecate going for another kick to Damian's legs but Damian Knight is once again ready for her, catching the champion as Hecate darted in, lifting her up and dropping down to the mat with a quick side walk slam, leaving Hecate arching her back in pain.]

Jack Gene - Damian Knight seems to have learned from the last two matches with Hecate, he was ready for her quick strikes and made the champion pay.

Bill Hughes - I told you that M.O.D. would be ready for Hecate and he's about to put all these women in the WMW on notice. He started with Midnight and tonight he's going to teach Hecate a woman's proper place in the biz.

Jack Gene - Two moves is not enough to end this match, Damian Knight has the advantage but this match is a long way from being over, now let's see how well he follows up on his early advantage.

[Damian Knight pulls Hecate up by the hair, scooping the champion up and planting her back down on the mat with a power slam, making the champion arch upwards off the mat once more. Damian follows up by jumping in the air and dropping down with a leg drop across Hecate's upper chest and neck area, yelling out to the crowd who respond with loud boos as Damian Knight rises off Hecate and motions for the champion to rise, slapping the outside of his thigh the whole time.]

Jack Gene - Damian Knight seems to be signaling for a big boot, he's measuring Hecate and waiting for the champion to get up.

Bill Hughes - M.O.D. is going to be ending this match quick, it's a brilliant move, totally dominant the Heartlands champion and then negotiate an advertisement deal for Club Midnight while the iron is hot. Damn this man is a genius.

[Hecate climbs back to her feet and turns around right as Damian Knight charges across the ring and levels her with a big boot, Damian Knight continuing across the ring and bouncing off the ropes, jumping up as he returns towards Hecate's downed body and dropping another leg drop across her upper body, making Hecate's body bounce off the mat before Damian Knight goes for a cover, Luna Pier sliding into position...1....2....Hecate manages to roll her shoulder and break up the count, Damian Knight looking down in her face and actually slapping Hecate while he yells down at her.]

Damian Knight - I'll teach you to respect your betters yet! By the time I'm done, you will be the perfect little bitch for someone like Gras-Dawg or Mo' Bad.

[Damian Knight goes to slap Hecate again with the champion still laying on the mat, but Hecate twists, grabbing Damian's arm and shifting her body to grapevine Damian's arm with her legs and twisting the wrist while pulling back on the fingers. Damian's eyes go wide and he growls out, punching down at Hecate's legs trying to get her to break the grapevine but the champion just twists further on Damian's wrist and arm.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord, just that quickly, Hecate turned Damian Knight's offense into a submission move.  Damian Knight is trying to get out of the hold quickly.

Bill Hughes - Hecate really has that arm bar submission locked on, but I am confident that M.O.D. will reign down board room destruction on Hecate and break the hold.

Jack Gene - Board room destruction? It's a wrestling match not a corporate meeting.

Bill Hughes - How little you know, that is why you are stuck in that chair.

[Damian Knight gets his feet under him, lifting up and pulling Hecate off the mat, putting his free arm around behind her and rising all the way up to his full height before lifting his arm up in the air and falling backwards, slamming Hecate face first into the mat, the champion bouncing up and standing on her knees a moment with both hands around her waist before falling face first into the mat again. Damian Knight takes a moment to stretch his arm after that submission hold before rising back to his feet and stalking the downed Hecate, bringing his leg down to stomp on her several times. Tossing his hands in the air and doing a HHH type posing yell before looking down at the crumbled body of Hecate and making a twin thumb's down motion with his hands.]

Jack Gene - OH!MY!GOD! Damian Knight had Hecate nearly 9 feet in the air before driving her down to the mat with that flat jack like move. I am not even sure the champion is still conscious after that move.

Bill Hughes - M.O.D. is calling this match over at this point and I don't see how he can be wrong.

[Jade is smacking both hands on the ring apron as she yells at Hecate to get up in between working the crowd up to cheer for Hecate, while Damian  Knight smirks and pulls Hecate up to her feet, the champion looking completely out on her feet as Damian Knight bends her over and lifts Hecate up over his head for what looks like the start of a power bomb but before Damian Knight can drop Hecate, the champion unloads with several elbow's to Damian's head before pushing off and flipping over his back and dropping down, yanking Damian's head down on her shoulder in a Widow's peak or stunner type move that dazes Damian Knight as Hecate rolls out of the ring to catch her breath while Damian Knight holds his head after sinking down to both knees. The crowd and Jade respond to the move, Jade bouncing up and down a bit as she claps.]

Jack Gene - Still signs of life left in the champion, how she was able to recover enough to reserve that power bomb attempt I'm not sure but it was effective and Hecate is being smart by taking a breather outside the ring.

Bill Hughes - I don't know what she did, but it had to be illegal, M.O.D. better be filing a protest with the board tomorrow if he doesn't win because he was just robbed!

Jack Gene - And just what match are you watching? Cause there was nothing illegal about what she did .

[Jade checks on Hecate on the outside of the ring, the two Daughters taking a moment to confer before Hecate steps away and walks around the outside of the ring as Luna Pier begins her ten count, Damian Knight looking a bit more panicked as Hecate lets the count get higher and higher until he finally approaches the ropes to break up Luna's ten count at the count of eight. Hecate's just smirks and moves back from Knight's grabbing arms.]

Jack Gene - Looks like Hecate is starting to play mind games with Damian Knight, the challenger wasn't sure that Hecate wouldn't just let herself get counted out so he had to break up the count.
yes

Bill Hughes - Damn woman is trying to play games with a genius like M.O.D. who does she think she is?

Jack Gene - The Heartlands champion for one thing and someone who has shown skill in mind games before. Damian Knight reacted exactly how she wanted him to, giving Hecate further time on the outside to recoup.

[Hecate moves from one side of the ring to the next, Damian Knight moving with her and rushing the ropes on that side and reaching over to try and grab Hecate but the champion dances away and circles around to the next side of the ring, and each time Damian Knight stops Luna Pier's ten count. This repeats itself on each side of the ring until Hecate ends up right back on the side of the ring she first went out on. Damian Knight reaches over to grab Hecate once again, this time though the champion jumps up and grabs Damian Knight by the back of the head and drops back down to the floor, causing Damian Knight's neck to bounce off the top rope, and the move sending Damian Knight staggering back with both hands clenching at his neck. Hecate rolls back into the ring at that point.]

Jack Gene - Hecate lured Damian Knight in there and caught him with that unexpected move and now she looks like she's the one stalking Knight.

Bill Hughes - She can't be thinking of hitting the Spartan Kick on M.O.D. he had that move banned from his matches. If she kicks him with that kick, she will lose the match and the Heartlands Title!

Jack Gene - What are you talking about? There are no such stipulations for this match....

Bill Hughes - And people wonder why M.O.D. is such a successful business man. I know for a fact that M.O.D. got that clause added to the contract for this match and convinced WMW management that neither Hecate or anyone else needed to know.

Jack Gene - Then just how do you know?

Bill Hughes - Easy, M.O.D. gave me a copy of the contract before the match started..here look.

Jack Gene - .... I don't believe it...Damian Knight actually did get that added to the contract for this match..after Hecate signed it!

[Damian Knight is down on one knee as Hecate moves around him, bouncing off the ring rope and charging right at Damian Knight, grabbing Knights head with one hand as she twists and falls backwards to the mat as the other hand comes up to grab the other side of Damian's head and pulling him down, driving her knees up under Damian's chin as she lands on the mat. Damian Knight rises up to both his knees before falling back down to the mat, stunned by the move, Hecate quickly sliding over to cover the challenger, Luna Pier dropping down into position...1....2....Damian Knight kicks out before the count of three.]

Jack Gene - Hecate changing styles again, Damian Knight expecting the champions grounded style and it looks like she's going speed and aerial to throw Damian Knight off his game in addition to the mind games she's playing on him. The champion with a near fall after a falling jaw breaker move.

Bill Hughes - M.O.D. is just luring the champion in, he's not taken in by her mind games or change of pace. Just watch, he will outsmart Hecate and end up with the win.

[Hecate gets to her feet, bouncing off the ropes once more and running towards Damian Knight as the challenger gets to his feet, jumping up to grab Damian around the head as she gets closer but Damian Knight catches Hecate and drops down to one knee, driving the champion's back down onto his upthrust knee in a back breaker. Hecate rolls off Damian Knight's knee and grabs at her back, gritting her teeth as she forces herself back up to one knee while Damian Knight approaches the champion. The champion rises up and jumps up in the air, delivering a drop kick to Damian Knight as he gets in range, staggering the big man back a couple of steps, but before Damian Knight can gather himself from the first drop kick, Hecate delivers another one ending Damian Knight back a few more paces.]

Jack Gene - Damian Knight and Hecate trading moves here, neither one with a clear advantage over the other. One big move by either of them could really change the complexion of this match.

Bill Hughes - Just you wait, M.O.D. is biding his time, and when Hecate is not expecting it...BAM! Business Plan to finish off the champion.

Jack Gene - Then there is the stipulations that Damian Knight had added to the match, I can't believe WMW management would agree to those.

Bill Hughes - M.O.D. has a very good legal team, so good he even told me he was going to legal change the name of the Heartland's title to the Business Championship or something along those lines, his legal team is investigating a list of potential names.

[Damian Knight shakes the two drop kicks off and charges at Hecate, looking to deliver another big boot but the champion drops down and uses Damian Knight's momentum against him by taking the challenger down to the mat with a drop toe hold, quickly following up into a step over toe hold and jerking on the muscles as she falls back to the mat, tweaking Damian's knee and ankle in doing so. Maintaining the hold, Hecate rises up only to toss herself backwards to the mat again, adding further torque to Damian's leg, making the challenger yell out in pain as he holds his leg while Hecate repeats her actions once more before releasing the hold. At the entryway, the figure of Wone comes out of the back and stands there watching the match with a single black rose in his hands.]

Jack Gene - Vintage Hecate here, she's focusing on Damian's leg and really working it over. The longer Hecate keeps Damian on the mat, the more this match will favor Hecate. What, what is Wone doing out there?

Bill Hughes - But M.O.D. is ready for Hecate's normal or "vintage" moves, he has counters ready for her and I have no idea about Wone...is that a rose in his hands? He freaks me out more every time I see him.

[Damian Knight gets back up to his feet, favoring the leg Hecate was just working on as the champion grins and baits Damian with come on motions and words that are too soft for the mics to pick up, Damian's face contorting with anger as the bigger man hobbles towards Hecate, which only makes Hecate grin wider. When Damian Knight gets closer, Hecate side steps his swing and delivers a kick to side of Damian's injured leg, Damian Knight naturally reacting by lifting the leg and grabbing at where Hecate kicked him, allowing Hecate to grab at Damian's lifted ankle and extending the leg just a bit before twisting and falling towards the mat as she does more damage to Damian's leg with a Dragon Screw leg whip. While the action is going on in the ring, Wone makes his way down towards the announcers, his eyes going back and forth between Hecate and Jade a demented looking smile on his lips.]

Jack Gene - Vicious looking Dragon Screw leg whip there, Damian is really grabbing at his knee in pain which will open Damian up to any number of submission holds from Hecate.

Bill Hughes - Damn that woman! She's not supposed to be using moves outside her normal move set! What is she trying to do, ruin M.O.D.'s carefully laid out game plans?

Jack Gene - More likely it is something she's picked up from her training with Jade, you know improving on ones skills.

Bill Hughes - Well that is just damn unfair of her, she needs to read the rules.

Jack Gene - There are times I'm embarrassed to say I know you at all.

[Wone moves over to stand before Jack and Bill, the black rose in one hand. The two announcers sport rather nervous expressions as they look up at Wone who slowly places the rose on the table between them.]

Wone - Give this to my object of adoration.

[With those words Wone turns and walks back up the ramp and into the back, pausing at the top and looks back at both Hecate and Jade one more time before disappearing into the back.]

Jack Gene - Ok that was very stalkerishly creepy

Bill Hughes - You're telling me...umm... just who are we supposed to give this to?

Jack Gene - I really am not sure....lets figure it out after the match.

[Hecate delivers several more kicks to the outside of Damian's injured leg, then moves in to grab the leg but Damian Knight grabs the front of Hecate's hot pants and falls backwards, sending the champion barreling into Luna Pier and knocking the referee out of the ring. Jade runs around the side of the ring as Hecate climbs back to her feet and looks over the side as Jade checks on Luna Pier. Damian Knight uses the corner to pull himself up as the crowd erupts in to loud boos as Zana Knight comes marching down to the ring, briefcase in hand. Hecate turns as Zana Knight slides into the ring, staring down both Hecate and Damian Knight.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord! Zana Knight has gotten into the rind and she's in a stare down with both her husband and Hecate! Jade is still checking on Luna Pier on the outside as well.

Bill Hughes - Midnight is going to ruin everything! M.O.D. had Hecate right where he wanted the champion and Midnight has to get involved.

[Zana Knight has her briefcase in both hands and looks like she's threatening Damian Knight with it, the two Knights exchanging words which are rather heated before Zana spins around and levels Hecate with the briefcase as the champion turned back from checking over the side on Luna Pier. Zana Knight looks down at the knocked out Hecate a moment and smirks before rolling out of the ring and climbing over the ring barricade as Luna Pier climbs back to her feet. Damian Knight starts to slowly get a cocky arrogant smirk on his face as he looks down at Hecate laid out on the mat and starts to signal to the crowd that this match is over. Jade looks on in shock, having no idea that Zana Knight got involved while the crowd loudly boos Damian Knight and yells at Luna Pier what happened.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord! Zana Knight just knocked Hecate out with that briefcase, Damian Knight is going to steal a win here! This is highway robbery!

Bill Hughes - How does it feel now that it's on the other foot? Hecate has been robbing M.O.D. all match long but now that his genius comes through and Midnight actually does what she's supposed to for once, it's robbery....hypocrite!

Jack Gene - .... You calling someone a hypocrite is like AWS Man telling someone they watch to much porn.

Bill Hughes - And now you're a blasphemer as well!

[Damian Knight smirks at Jade in an arrogant and cocky manner as he walks over and drops down to his knees beside Hecate's limp body and after a moment of cocky jawing with Jade at ringside, Damian Knight finally covers Hecate. Luna Pier drops down into position, like she's been expecting this since she got back in the ring, and checks Hecate's shoulders before starting her count.]

Jack Gene - This will be a travesty! Damian Knight did everything he could to make sure this match was in his favor and now after the interference of Zana Knight he will steal the Heartland's belt.

Bill Hughes - Just like I predicted at the beginning of the match..here is the count ...1...2...M.O.D. isn't done with Hecate yet, he pulled her up from the pin and is lightly slapping her around, paint brushing the champion. I love the statement M.O.D. is making here.

[Luna Pier yells at Damian Knight for breaking up the pin fall like that but Damian Knight just ignores her while he pulls Hecate to her feet by the champion's hair. With one hand in Hecate's hair, Damian Knight continues to slap the champion around and berate her before sending Hecate across the ring into the ropes and lifting her up in the air for his Business Plan, but Hecate slithers up further on Damian's body, slipping one shin under Damian's chin as the other leg wraps around his neck and her hands pull down on the back of Damian Knight's head. Damian Knight's eyes go wide as Hecate pulls down with both hands while pushing up with her shin bone, cutting off his air supply, the challenger trying to break the hold by dropping Hecate down to the mat with a power bomb but Hecate refuses to let go of the hold. Damian Knight tries to pull Hecate back up for another power bomb but his legs give out before he can even get Hecate off the mat and Damian Knight starts to tap rapidly at that point.]

Jack Gene - OH!MY!GOD! Hecate just countered the Business Plan with another submission move of hers, this one a variant of the Hell's Gate submission it looks like.

Bill Hughes - M.O.D. even connected with a power bomb and Hecate was able to hold onto the submission.

Wayne Inkster - The winner of the match by submission and still Heartlands Champion....the Dark Priestess Hecate!

[Jade slides into the ring as Inkubus Sukkubus's "Wytches" starts to play while Hecate rises to her feet, Damian Knight sliding back to a corner and using the ropes to rise to his feet, coughing a bit and holding onto this neck. Jade takes the Heartlands belt from Luna Pier and moves around behind Hecate and as Luna Pier raises Hecate's arms in victory, Jade slips the Heartland's belt around Hecate's waist and fastens it in place.]

After Match Happenings

[The music suddenly stops as a man dressed in a three piece suit slowly walks down the entryway to the ring, taking his time and walking up the steps and looking into the ring from the apron for a long moment before stepping into the ring.]

Jack Gene - What's going on now? Who is this person and what do they want?

Bill Hughes - An even more important question, who did they come out for...Hecate or M.O.D.

[The unknown man walks to the middle of the ring, looking first at Hecate and scanning her over then turning his head to look at Damian Knight then turns and looks at Hecate again, turning to fully face the Hecate before spinning around on his heel and clocking Damian Knight with a huge right hand. Damian Knight stumbles back and the unknown man continues his assault on Damian Knight, laying in with rights and lefts until Damian Knight slumps down fully in the corner and then lays in with numerous kicks.]

Jack Gene - Looks like your question has been answered Bill, this unknown person is beating the living hell out of Damian Knight while Jade and Hecate wisely slip out of the ring and let these two at it.

Bill Hughes - Don't tell me this is a hostile takeover of Knight Enterprises......Shoot me now, I can't believe I just said that....

Jack Gene - And the best part is it's on tape! Security is out from the back now and getting into the ring.

[Finally security manages to pull this unknown person off Damian Knight who is barely moving in the ring and escort the unknown man from the ring while attendants check on Damian Knight and after a moment escort Damian Knight out of the ring surrounded by security as well the shot fading as Damian Knight is taken into the back.]

GS107 Replay - Wone vs. The Analog Kid

[Just then, Wone shoots up and pulls Kid to his side. Kid turns it to a headlock, but Wone slams a knee into his head, causing Rider to fall back into the ropes. Wone charges, but gets met with a forearm shot to the side of the head. Kid dives towards him and catches him in a roll up. He holds him for a pin.]

Jack Gene - He's got a hold of his tights!

Bill Hughes - Here's the pin ...1! ...2! ...Oh!

Jack Gene - Wone kicked out!

[Wone immediately jumps up. He charges StormRider, but is quickly met with a Spinning Heel Kick. He ducks it, and catches him with a kick to his side. He then grabs a hold of him and lifts him up onto his shoulders.]

Jack Gene - Wone's got him up! He's going for it...

Bill Hughes - Fall From Grace! Wone hit the Fall from Grace!

Jack Gene - A reverse DVD! He's got the pin ...1! ...2! ...3! It's over!

[Wone quickly stands up and walks over to the ropes. He raises his hand as the crowd gives him a round of applause.]

[Just then, as Wone jumps off the turnbuckle, Analog pops up and slams Wone with a sucker punch.]

Jack Gene - Oh! Hey! He just sucker punched Wone! Oh!

[He follows it up with a kick to Wone's unprotected gut. He catches Wone's head as Wone doubles up from the unexpected kick, tucks it under his right arm and flings himself backwards slamming Wone down into the mat.]

Jack Gene - My god!

Bill Hughes - It doesn't look like The Analog Kid was finished here tonight.

Jack Gene - Apparently not. He just dropped him with a DDT! That's just not right!

[Analog rolls over onto one knee and catches his breath. Wone stares down at the mat, unresponsive. Kid slithers towards Wone, and begins to shout at him, as Wone lays motionless.]

Jack Gene - This is just sick. Leave him alone! The match is over!

[Kid rolls on top of Wone and slips his right arm under Wone's right arm, then his left, then places his chin on Wone's left shoulder and locks his hands behind his neck.]

Jack Gene - No! He's got him in a choke!

Bill Hughes - He calls it The Jagged Edge! And He's got it locked on.

[Kid arches his back, adding more pain by putting added pressure on Wone's back.]

Bill Hughes - Just a vicious choke here. He's wrenching the neck with that Sleeper, and just totally killing his back.

Jack Gene - It's sick.

Bill Hughes - I like it! This is what we need to see from the newcomers.

Jack Gene - Sucker punches and attacking someone after the bell?

Bill Hughes - Hey, Wone is a former Great Lakes Champion. The Analog Kid is showing that he isn't backing down.

[Wone's beats his legs into the mat from the pain. At that point, security rushes into the ring and pulls Analog Kid off of Wone.]

Jack Gene - Thank you. Thank you security for doing the right thing. This makes me sick. What a sad state of affairs that was. Analog Kid attacking Wone after the bell, and Wone... my god what a fight he put up. A good win by him, and this is what he gets in return.

[Security pulls StormRider from the ring and walk him up the ramp. The Referee checks on Wone as the scene fades.]

Wone vs Analog "Stormrider" Kid

Written by: Garvin

[The shot opens up at ringside where Jack Gene and Bill Hughes are ready to call the next match.]

Jack Gene - Well, as we just saw in that replay, Wone finally picked up a win on his return, a much needed win, and the The Analog Kid with just a vicious attack.

Bill Hughes - Hey, and you know, you can't really take anything away from Wone. It was a great match for him. But, at the same time, StormRider didn't come here to put over a veteran. He came here to make a statement. And that's what he did.

Jack Gene - With a sucker punch? I just think it was a bad career choice for the Kid. But, we'll find that out here tonight. Let's turn it over to Wayne Inkster.]

[The shot changes to the top of the ramp. A very generic STO-brand music blasts from the PA and out walks The Analog Kid.]

Wayne Inkster - The following contest is scheduled for one fall. Introducing first, hailing from Hamilton, Ontario Canada, weighing in at 206lbs, he is... The Analog Kid... StormRider!

[He's clad in black work boots, faded blue jeans, black tee shirt under faded blue unbuttoned overshirt, black "quickdraw-style" glove on his right hand, saddlebag over the left shoulder and wide-brimmed black hat and black leather duster, analog emerges from the back.  Head down, he walks with purposeful stride to the ring.  He climbs the ring stairs and comes in between the middle and top ropes, then walks over to his corner.  He climbs to the middle turnbuckle and raises his head, unleashing the intensity in his pale blue eyes. He takes off his hat, duster, saddlebag and overshirt, then waits patiently for his opponent, eyes locked on the ramp if he comes in first, or locked on his opponent if he comes in last.]

Wayne Inkster - And his opponent, hailing from Purgatory, Maine, he stands in at six feet, two inches tall and weighs in at 226 pounds, he is a former Great Lakes Champion, he is, Wone!!!!!!

["Our Truth" by Lacuna Coil begins to play over the speakers. As the lead singer begins to wail Wone steps through the curtain and stands at the top of the entrance. His black, matted hair covers his white painted face as he stares down at this feet. After a few seconds he looks up and focuses on the ring as he walks deliberately towards it. He pays no attention the fans or their reactions.]

Jack Gene - And, StormRider, last week came up short, as we know, to defeating his opponent here tonight, Wone. All though we have seen Wone for the last few weeks, and - really, just look unsure of himself, and looking like he wasn't ready for his comeback, and...

Bill Hughes - No, let's be honest. Wone has looked terrible ever since he returned. But, last week -I mean, it's not just us that noticed it. The fans noticed it. Management noticed it, and Wone was awarded the Fighter of the Week. But, that doesn't mean, in any shape or form, this match is going to be easy.

Jack Gene - Well, it's definitely being considered one of the bigger grudge matches here tonight. Even though they just met last week, Wone is not taking that sucker punch lightly and will enter this match a lot angrier then last week. That's for sure.

[Wone reaches the ring apron and leaps up on to it grabbing the top rope with both hands. Finally he gazes out over the crowd before leaping over the top rope and in to the ring. He heads for the far corner and puts his back up against the turnbuckles. He kneels down on one knee to wait for the start of the match.]

Jack Gene - And... here we go, referee Stephen Tyler is calling for the bell.

(ring, ring, ring)

[Wone and StormRider circle one another. They move to lock up, but before they can, StormRider pulls back and slaps Wone across the face causing his head to turn to the side. Wone holds his jaw.]

Jack Gene - OH! And just slapped the taste out of his mouth with that shot.

[StormRider smirks at him and eggs Wone to come get him. Wone charges, but StormRider ducks through his grip. As Wone turns around, the Kid hits him with a jab, followed by another. He boots Wone in the midsection, and attempts for a gut wrench, but Wone rolls through it, keeping a hold of Stormrider's arm, and turns it into a hammerlock.]

Jack Gene - Wone quickly puts the reigns on StormRider with that hammerlock.

Bill Hughes - Well, the last thing he wants to do is allow StormRider to set the pace of this match. He's got a lot to prove here.

[StormRider grabs a hold of his arm, and ducks under Wone's grasp, reversing it into a hammerlock of his own. After a few seconds, Wone manages to elbow the Kid in the side of the head, causing to let go and stumble backwards. Wone charges with a running forearm, but Rider ducks it. Wone quickly stops and turns around, but before he can get a good view of StormRider, Rider slams him in the midsection with a shoulder causing Wone to stumble backwards. He charges Wone and knocks him into the ropes with a knee to the side of the head.]

Jack Gene - Oooh! Shot to the side of the head. That stunned him. Wone is down to his knees.

[Before Wone can pull himself up on the ropes, StormRider walks over to him and pushes him down across the rope, with his knee. He grabs the rope, pulling up for leverage as the ref starts to count. ...1! ...2! ...3! ...4! He lets go and Wone collapses to the mat holding his throat.]

Jack Gene - And the Kid just barely letting go in time. He almost got himself disqualified there.

[StormRider goes back to work on Wone. He pulls him up by the hair and forces him into the corner, before driving 3 stiff boots, causing him to fall to the seat of his pants.]

Jack Gene - And StormRider just laying into Wone here. Once again, the ref getting involved and tells StormRider to get it away from the ropes.

[The Kid pulls up Wone by the hair. He then lifts Wone up onto his shoulder, and then drives him into the corner, with a modified Spine buster-type move. Wone holds his midsection in pain as he slumps against the corner. The ref steps in and gives StormRider another verbal warning, forcing him to the corner.]

Jack Gene - And again, Stephen Tyler telling the Analog Kid to get this fight out of the corner. You've got to wonder if he's really out here to win the match, or if he is more pleased with just inflicting pain. You heard him this week, Bill. He made it clear that he's in it for the money.

Bill Hughes - Well, come on, Jack. We all are in a sense.

[Just then, Rider pushes Tyler away as he charges Wone in the corner. But, before he can hit a splash, Wone lifts up his legs and meets StormRider in the face with both feet.]

Jack Gene - Oh! And that dazed StormRider. Wone is looking like he's measuring him up for something. Wone is up, AND A CROSS body by Wone! He's got the pin, but StormRider able to push him off before the 1 count.

[Rider quickly jumps up and goes for a clothesline. Wone dives in and goes for a cutter, but Rider pushes him off. As Wone turns around, Rider quickly goes for a dropkick, but Wone moves out of the way causing Rider to fall to his face. Rider pushes himself up but is met immediately by a right hand. Followed by a second. Wone pushes him into the corner, before shooting him across the ring. Rider flies into the opposite turnbuckle, and stays hunched over in the corner. Wone charges, but his met square in the face with an elbow.]

Jack Gene - And an elbow by StormRider.

[StormRider pushes himself up onto the top turnbuckle. He stands on the second as Wone turns around. He looks to be measuring him up for something, but Wone quickly sees him and dives towards him, hurdling himself shoulder first into his midsection. Wone starts to climb, and begins throwing rights and lefts at StormRider. Rider is able to block a majority of the impact before pushing Wone off. Wone charges again, and is met with a forearm. He quickly locks on a head scissors.]

Jack Gene - Oh! And he's got a head scissors on Wone. And he looks like... Storm Rider is going for a hurricanrana here, but no! Wone blocked it and... OH!

Bill Hughes - A power bomb! Wone, just with a huge impact move here.

Jack Gene - Wone now has a cover. Here's the pin. ...1! ...2! ...and StormRider kicks out.

[As Rider rolls to his stomach, Wone quickly locks him up into a a side headlock.]

Jack Gene - And Wone locks on a side headlock. Just wrenching away at Rider, but Rider is fighting it.

[After a few seconds, StormRider gets some his legs under him and pushes Wone up to his feet. He slams a right hand into Wone's midsection. Followed by a second and a third. He lifts up Wone and goes for a backdrop, but Wone rolls out and lands on his feet. He quickly darts towards the ropes, and as StormRider turns around, Wone jumps onto the second rope and hits a springboard moonsault. Rider catches him, but is unable to avoid the impact, and is taken down to the mat. Wone holds on for the pin.]

Jack Gene - My god! Wone with a moonsault! Here's the pin! ...1! ...2! ...thr--NO!

Bill Hughes - Oh, that was a close one, Jack.

Jack Gene - That it was and these fans are on their feet. You are hearing some Wone cheers out there. Something that doesn't happen very often.

[As StormRider stands up, he falls up against the ropes. Wone charges but the Kid drops down to the mat and rolls out of the ring out onto the floor.]

Jack Gene - The Analog Kid, escaping to the outside. Just narrowly escaping the grip of Wone.

Bill Hughes - I don't think this was the best decision for the Kid. I mean, Wone is known for not only taking, but winning the match outside of the ring.

[Wone climbs out onto the apron, and measures up StormRider who walks alongside the ring. Wone then runs down the apron, and jumps towards StormRider, just as StormRider turned, and hits him with a flying forearm, which sends StormRider down to the mat and into the ring barrier.]

Jack Gene - My god! And Wone takes StormRider off of his feet on the outside. (...1!) Referee Stephen Tyler starts the count. (...2!) And Wone pulls up the Kid, before delivering an open-handed chop to his chest.

[Rider tries to crawl away, but Wone follows him closely.]

Bill Hughes - If you've ever been chopped, you know how painful it is. (...3!) Not just as it happens, but 5-10 minutes afterwards. I mean, (...4!) I don't know if it's just your body going into shock after knowing your chest cavity has been hit with that kind of velocity, (...5!) or what but man, StormRider is going to feel that one.

[Wone pulls up StormRider by the back of the head. (...6!) He pulls him to the edge of the ring and attempts to roll him in, but StormRider (...7!) blocks it, drops to his knees and hits Wone between the legs with a low blow. (...8!)

Jack Gene - Oh! MY! Did he just...

[He quickly stands up and slams a forearm into the back of Wone's head and rolls him into the ring.]

Jack Gene - He just hit him with an illegal low blow, but I don't think the ref saw it.

Bill Hughes - He must not have, Jack, as this match is continuing.

Jack Gene - The Analog Kid now has Wone up and drops him back down to his knees with a kick to the back of the leg. He looks to be targeting the left leg of Wone.

Jack Gene - And Wone takes down StormRider with a forearm shot!

[Rider pulls himself up and Wone immediately meets him in the center of the ring. He lands a European uppercut that propels Analog through the air. He lands on a turnbuckle. Wone starts to pull Kid out of the corner and hits a knee lift to the midsection. And then another one. He pulls him from the corner and scoops him up before slamming him down to the mat. Wone quickly climbs to the top rope, and jumps off with a back flip.]

Jack Gene - No! StormRider moved out of the way, but Wone was able to see it and catch himself on his feet!

Bill Hughes - Oh, but he landed bad, Jack. He's holding that left knee in pain, as the ref goes to check on him.

Jack Gene - And StormRider sees it and he immediately charges Wone and begins to stomp on that knee.

[Wone falls to his knees, but StormRider doesn't let him down, as he pulls him up and drives him into the corner. He drives his shoulder into his midsection. The referee quickly gets in between him and Wone telling him to take it out of the corner. He walks away seemingly pleased with himself.]

Jack Gene - And once again, StormRider has taken over this match.

Bill Hughes - Wone looked like he definitely had a shot, but he wasted too much time on the ropes.

[Wone pulls himself up into the corner. StormRider pushes the ref out of his way as Wone charges him. Wone goes for a clothesline, but is met with a boot to the midsection before slamming taking Wone down with a stomach breaker across his knee. He rolls him him over and makes a cover.]

Jack Gene - And here's the cover. ...1! ...2! ...thr OH! No! Wone got a shoulder up at the last possible moment.

Bill Hughes - You can see the frustration is rising in the Analog Kid. He talked about how last week he felt the counts were too fast, but now he's got an opportunity to win here and the ref's counts are too slow.

[StormRider walks to the corner as Wone tries to pull himself up to his knees. Wone gets to his feet, but bends over, resting his arms on his knees.]

Jack Gene - Wone is back to his feet and StormRider... looking like he's measuring up Wone for something. Maybe the Sure Shot. Oh! Here he comes! StormRider with that super kick No!

Bill Hughes - He missed!

Jack Gene - And now Wone is trying to lift him up! He's got him up!

[Wone spins briefly before slamming StormRider down to the mat with a reverse DVD.]

Jack Gene - Fall from Grace! He hit it! He hit it!

Bill Hughes - Can he make the cover?

Jack Gene - He's reaching... and he's got it! Here's the count! ...1! ...2! ...3! My god! Wone has done it!

[Wone quickly rises to his knees before rolling out of the ring. He falls to his knees outside the ring as "Our Truth" by Lacuna Coil blasts from the PA.]

Wayne Inkster - Here's your winner... Wone!

Jack Gene - And a huge victory for Wone, here as we continue Groundhog Slay 2010! Wone picked up his second win in his return, and his second win over the Analog Kid in as many weeks.

Bill Hughes - Well, it as definitely a well-needed win.

Jack Gene - Stay tuned! Groundhog Slay 2010 continues with the Shoot Championship being defended as Jade takes on Amariie. Stay tuned!

Shoot Championship Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a shot of Jade and Amariie in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - The Shoot Championship has really heated up as well recently with the current champion Jade and fellow stable member Amariie developing a real sibling rivalry over the title.

John Squires - How aright you are on that Stephen, the tension between the two has really reached a fever pitch but still they are friends and you nailed it on the head by calling this a sibling rivalry, that's the best way I can describe it as well.

Stephen Squires - And to add to all that tension, Amariie went to Sault St. Marie and request that a stipulation be added to the match, that if she loses this match to Jade, that is the last Shoot title match she gets for the rest of 2010, which would really change the whole landscape of the Shoot division.

John Squires - It would completely change the Shoot division around, WMW Management would have to shuffle talent around or someone would have to step up to challenge the champion, but that's only if Amariie loses tonight. Amariie has withdrawn herself for the last several weeks in order to prepare for this match and I don't expect her to go down easily.

Stephen Squires - Very good point there John, Jade got the best of Amariie last time the two faced but I think this match will be a completely different story, I am expecting to see the Amariie that tore through the Shoot tournament and took Jack Reynolds the distance and back. How do you see this match playing out John?

John Squires - Like you, I'm expecting one very competitive match, Jade has momentum on her side but Amariie has shown a lot of desire. It's going to be very close but I'm thinking Amariie will upset Jade here in a match that will go down to the wire.

Stephen Squires - You're right it could go either way, but I think Jade's training with her tag partner Hecate will help Jade surprise Amariie and come out on top in this match, retaining her Shoot Title.

John Squires - Honestly this will be anyone's match and if these two ladies wrestle half as fiercely has they have appeared in their promos, this will be a match you don't want to miss.

Stephen Squires -  I don't think I could have said it any better myself John. And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned!

Jade (c) vs Amariie

Written by: Hecate

[Everybody's Fool" by Evanescence blasts from the PA as Amariie makes her way out of the back and pauses at the top of the entry way, tossing her hair behind her and posing for a moment at the music continues to play.]

Wayne Inkster - The following contest is scheduled for one fall and will be for the Shoot division championship. Introducing first, hailing from Romania and coming into tonight's contest at a height of 5'6" and weighing in at 152lbs, she is a member of the Daughters of Darkness....Amariie Maerthos!!!!

Jack Gene - This could very well be Amariie's last chance at the Shoot title for the rest of 2010! If she doesn't defeat Jade in tonight's match, she won't have another title shot the rest of 2010, talk about high stakes for the challenger.

Bill Hughes - One thing I have noticed about Amariie, is she's at her best when she's first striving for something, but once it's no longer a prize or trophy for her wall, her interest wanes and she doesn't push herself as hard, tonight is her chance to prove everyone wrong on that regard.

Jack Gene - Good point there Bill, but she will have a tough fight ahead of her tonight.

[A sound of lightning breaks out and the lights in the arena flash to simulate a lightning bolt.  After a few seconds, the WMW Big Screen comes to life.  On the video tron, Jade's name appears with a Chinese Character in the background.  Then a great Eastern Jade dragon is shown circling around a landscape, then lightning seems to come down and strike the stage in front of the entryway causing a burst of green, silver and gold pyro have the dragon lunge towards the camera with mouth open as a roar escapes it's mouth, echoing through the arena.]

Wayne Inkster - And her opponent is the current Shoot Division champion, hailing from Lhasa, Tibet, China and coming into tonight's contest at a height of 5'8" and weighing in at 150 lbs, she is a member of the Daughters of Darkness and is accompanied to the ring by her tag partner Hecate ... she is the Dragon of the East....Jade!!!!

[After a few moments, Music from the Jade Dragon Concerto (Great Muta Concerto) plays over the PA and Jade seemingly walks through the pyro and flames of the Dragon, walking out in a determined, methodical pace before finally stopping in a fighting stance as her overcoat flutters in the air before displaying a flurry of punches and kicks, ending up with her making a few martial arts movement and clinching her fist as a final burst of pyro goes off behind her.  She then narrows her eyes and runs down towards the ring, one foot barely touching the ground before lifting off and moving, her black overcoat fluttering around her Chinese style boots and black hot pants with a silvery white owl symbol on her hip, while her Black halter top bears the Jade Dragon wrapped around her right breast, the WMW Shoot Title around her waist.]

Jack Gene - Jade promised Amariie another lesson during tonight's match, Jade is has gotten a lot of confidence back since joining up with the Daughters of Darkness, like it or not, she's changed since putting her hat in with them.

Bill Hughes - Her confidence levels are not the only thing that has changed, I love her new wardrobe and I'm looking forward to seeing what Jade has picked up from all her training with Hecate.

[Referee Stephen Tyler takes the Shoot title from Jade showing it first to Amariie then lifting it up and turning to show each section of the arena the title before handing it off to a ring side attendant. Stephen Tyler then pats down both women for foreign objects while soft panting can be heard over the mics.]

Jack Gene - Ewwww Bill! You're drooling, get a hold of yourself...wait poor choice of words... get a handle on...err...no that's a bad choice as well....dammit Bill, control yourself!

Bill Hughes - Like you are not thinking Stephen Tyler has the best job in the world right now, getting to feel up both Amariie and Jade and not get smacked for it, I am in the wrong line of work.

Jack Gene - While my partner cleans himself up here, it looks like this match is ready to begin, Stephen Tyler is calling for the bell.

(Ring, ring, ring)

[Jade and Amariie circle each other slowly in the middle of the ring, lashing out with quick kicks and strikes as the two women get a feeling for each other in the opening moments of the match before moving in and getting tied up with a collar and elbow tie up. The two women shift back and forth, neither one able to gain the advantage over the other as they move first one direction then back the other way.]

Jack Gene - So far neither woman has been able to turn this basic hold into an advantage, the longer they stay tied up though, the more I'm going to have to give the edge to Amariie.

Bill Hughes - Jade has been training quite a bit with Hecate though and I'm sure basics like this are something they went over.

[Jade slips out of the collar and elbow tie up and grabs Amariie's arm as she does, twisting it and causing Amariie to lean forward from the pressure of the hold but Amariie continues to bend over, flipping herself over and reversing the hold, twisting Jade's arm and moving it into a hammer lock. Jade tries to reverse the hold but Amariie is ready for those attempts, keeping herself moving to avoid Jade's attempts to grab or elbow Amariie. Jade reaches up behind her, snagging Amariie's hair for a moment, just long enough for Jade to catch Amariie in the side with an elbow, the two women moving slightly apart as they start to circle around each other again.]

Jack Gene - Good exchange of basic wrestling holds there by both Amariie and Jade. Amariie the more technically skilled of the two, but Jade was able to counter Amariie very nicely.

Bill Hughes - If the rest of the match is like the opening moments, we will be in for a real treat tonight in this match. It really looks like Amariie had refocused herself for this match and Jade's work with her tag team partner is showing through as well.

[Amariie and Jade move to lock up again in a collar and elbow tie up, instantly straining back and forth to get the advantage, the two women letting out audible grunts as they jockey for position. First Amariie backs Jade up a few steps, then Jade reverses it and pushes Amariie back a few paces before Amariie digs in for a moment before stepping forwards and using the collar and elbow tie up as a modified cinch and releases a flurry of knee lifts into Jade's ribs and midsection. Jade grunts out even louder as Amariie prevents Jade from blocking or covering up until Amariie twists, driving Jade down to the mat and ending up in a classic mount position over top of Jade.]

Jack Gene - Amariie just unloading on Jade with this those knees, and the way the pair were tied up Jade couldn't do anything about it.

Bill Hughes - God I love my job! I would pay to watch Amariie mount Jade and not only do I get to see it for free, but I get paid to see it!

Jack Gene - Um...Moving on, Hecate is trying to keep a neutral expression at ringside but she is sporting a bit of a concerned look on her face.

Bill Hughes - That's because Amariie got to mount Jade before she did, Haha! I can keep this up all night long.

Jack Gene - Heaven help us, Amariie is raining elbows down on Jade who is able to cover up now.

[As Amariie continues to drop elbow strikes down on Jade, the Shoot champion curls up and slips her legs under Amariie's armpits and pushes down with her legs, reversing the position from a mount by Amariie into a roll up by Jade, Stephen Tyler slides into position but Amariie kicks out before Tyler can even get a one count. Jade quickly rises up to one knee as she looks over at Amariie and gives a slight nod of her head, while Amariie brushes her hair back out of her face and gives Jade a slight smile. At ringside, Hecate is pacing back and forth, using her scepter and hands to get the crowd fired up, who are slowly starting to cheer for the performance Jade and Amariie are putting on in the ring. Jade rises fully to her feet as the two women stare at each other before bouncing off the ropes at the same time, Amariie trying for a clothesline but Jade ducks under it and dives towards the mat, landing on her hands and kicking backwards with her feet, driving them into the middle of Amariie's back and sending the European wrestler stumbling forward and nearly through the ropes.]

Jack Gene - Jade with the reversal that leads to a one count, both of these women are putting on a show here tonight.

Bill Hughes - Nice counter move by Jade to gain the momentary advantage, but the way these two are wrestling tonight, I don't see either one holding the advantage for very long.

Jack Gene - You could be right there Bill, both of these ladies has really prepared for this match and it's showing inside the ring.

[Amariie recovers enough that she is able to bounce off the ropes and as Jade gets back to her feet, Amariie catches the Shoot champion with a running neck breaker that leaves Jade grabbing at the back of her head and neck while Amariie rolls back to her feet and grabs Jade by the head and neck, lifting the champion up before snapmaring Jade over and driving a knee into the middle of Jade's back while clamping down with a rear chin lock, pulling back hard on Jade's neck and forcing the champion to arch her back to relieve some of the pressure. Amariie continues to pull back on Jade's neck while the champion starts to work her way to one side, turning the chin lock into a side head lock. Amariie grinds down on the side of Jade's head after the champion was about to partially get out of her predicament, the challenger standing over Jade who has gotten to one knee and keeping the pressure on the champion.]

Jack Gene - Amariie changing her tactics up a bit, slowing things down and maybe looking to make this a mat game.

Bill Hughes - Smart in my view, Amariie still has to be the better technical wrestler of the two and this forces Jade out of her carefully orchestrated game plan.

Jack Gene - It's going to be interesting to see how Jade counters this new move by Amariie.

[Hecate continues to pace back and forth, working the crowd as she watches the match intently, Jade slowly forcing herself back up to both feet while Amariie digs in deeper with the side head lock. Jade goes to shoot Amariie off but the challenger holds on long enough to reverse the Irish Whip sending Jade shooting into the ropes, dropping down to the mat as Jade goes running over top of her, then jumping up and leap frogging over Jade as the champion returns the other way, Jade bouncing off the ropes face first, turning the momentum into a back flip and catches Amariie with an elbow as she sails across the ring. Jade immediately rises up and tries to take Amariie's head off with her Jade Dragon Kick but Amariie rolls forward to avoid the contact and dazes Jade with two lightning quick jabs followed up with a spinning backhand that sends Jade down to the mat. The challenger then sprints towards the ropes, bouncing off and running back towards the downed Jade, skipping twice before flipping herself over in a handless cartwheel and drops an elbow right down on Jade's chest and follows it up with a quick cover, hooking one leg as Stephen Tyler gets into position...1....2...Jade gets her shoulder up before the count of three.]

Jack Gene - Wow! What an exchange between these two that ended in a near fall for Amariie, so much for slowing the match down I guess.

Bill Hughes - It was more of a cat nap I think....

Jack Gene - What are you talking about now?

Bill Hughes - Amariie slowing the match down, it was sorta like when you take a little nap after mowing the lawn or shoveling the driveway...well at least that's what I heard. Amariie was just getting her breath back is all.

[Amariie rises to her feet while Jade rolls over onto her hands and knees, looking up at Amariie who seems to be measuring Jade for her next offensive flurry but Jade beats her to the punch, well in this case foot as the champion pushes off into a handstand and spins on the palms of her hands and extends her legs out, connecting with several kicks to Amariie's chest before twisting as she drops from the hand stand, her legs sweeping out to connect with the side and back of Amariie's legs, taking Amariie down to the mat. Jade doesn't stop moving her legs through, bringing them back up into another handstand before twisting and turning to bring herself around and connecting with a leg drop to Amariie, very similar to how John Morrison does it but Jade looks so much better doing it. Jade grabs a leg and tries to cover Amariie but the European wrestler kicks out of the move before Stephen Tyler can even get into position for the count. As Amariie sits up from the pin attempt, Jade wraps both legs around Amariie's neck, crossing them and squeezing Amariie's head in a vice like head scissors.]

Bill Hughes - Yes!!! The Coochie Clamp!! Jade just put the Coochie Clamp on Amariie!!! This is awesome!! And just shut up Jackie, you can't make me not call it the Coochie Clamp...oooo I hope Jade and Hecate both use it during tag team matches, then we can have the Double Coochie Clamp for twice the pleasure!

Jack Gene - I'm just going to pretend you didn't go there and try not to think of all the fines that will be coming out way.

Bill Hughes - Do you think if I ask nicely, Jade will put that hold on me?

Jack Gene - I may pay her to put that on you, just so I don't have to hear you each week!

[Amariie claws at Jade's legs as her head is squeezed between those strong thighs, her eyes bulging a bit, either from the pressure or from the view, or a combination of both, and struggles back to her knees while trying to pull Jade's legs apart by with the ankles locked behind her head, Amariie can not get enough leverage to pry them open. Jade has no expression on her face as she squeezes down, the cheers of the crowd alternating between the two women in the ring. With a surge of energy, Amariie rises up high on her knees before rolling to one side and flipping over, although not breaking the hold, the move gets Amariie close enough that she can put her foot on the ropes and forces Stephen Tyler to step in and break the hold. Both women quickly get back to their feet, Amariie holding her neck with one hand and just barely ducking under a wicked roundhouse kick from Jade, Amariie able to deliver a snap kick of her own to Jade as the champion spins back around after the missed roundhouse kick, doubling Jade over. With Jade in the doubled over position, Amariie delivers another snap kick to Jade's midsection before looping her arm around the back of Jade's neck while entwining her leg around Jade's leg then using her other leg to give a bit of a pendulum swing and taking Jade down to the mat with a vicious swept legged DDT that nearly spikes Jade on the top of her head.]

Jack Gene - Amariie just planted Jade with that DDT of hers, this could be the turning point of the match for Amariie if she can just keep the pressure on the champion.

Bill Hughes - The way these two have been going all match long, that is easier said than done. As soon as one women gets the advantage over the other, the momentum gets turned right back around.

[Amariie pulls Jade back to her feet, then whips Jade face first into the corner, charging after the champion. Jade lets out a grunt as she hits front first in the corner, staggering back several paces, dazed from the impact as Amariie runs right by her, showing off her own athleticism by hopping first to the middle then the top turnbuckle and jumping off, twisting around as she does and extending her knee, driving it into the side of Jade's head, sending both of them crashing to the mat. Amariie is quickly up to her feet and charges the ropes, bouncing off them with a full head of steam and runs right at Jade, who has gotten back up to one knee and literally runs right over the champion with a painful looking running knee strike to the side of Jade's head. The challenger quickly rolls Jade over onto her back and hooks the leg, Stephen Tyler sliding into position and after a quick check of Jade's shoulders starts his count ....1....2.....3....no Stephen Tyler is indicating that Jade got her shoulder up before the count of three.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord! You can't get much closer than that folks, Amariie just about took Jade's head off with that knee and almost won the match. I don't know how Jade managed to kick out of that one.

Bill Hughes - Doesn't look like Amariie can believe Jade kicked out either. But wisely she isn't dwelling on it, Amariie is pulling Jade back up to her feet.

[Amariie delivers another snap kick to Jade to keep the offense moving, then pulls Jade into a suplex position, reaching down and hooking Jade's outside leg before lifting Jade up and over into a fisherman's suplex, keeping the leg hooked and arching beautifully into a pin attempt, Stephen Tyler right in position to check on it...1....2....Jade kicks out again before the count of three. Amariie quickly pounces as Jade moves to get up, attempting to lock on her Cross face chicken wing but Jade twists before Amariie can get the hold fully locked in, connecting with a back elbow to the side of Amariie's head, staggering Amariie back a few steps and giving Jade enough room to turn far enough to unload with a series of kicks that focus primarily on Amariie's leg, rapid fire kicks without stopping or touching the ground, from Amariie's ankle up to her hip and then back down again, the challenger dropping down to one knee. Jade follows up by connecting with a Muta like forward shining wizard that sees Jade's knee connecting with Amariie's temple area.]

Jack Gene - Death of a Thousand Kicks from Jade followed up by a Shining Wizard that repaid the favor by almost taking Amariie's head off.

Bill Hughes - Amariie could very well be out after that hit, her head snapped back hard when she hit the mat.

Jack Gene - Jade goes for the cover here ....1....2....3...no Amariie barely kicks out before the count of three, we've have several close near falls in this match so far.

Bill Hughes - The first one of these two that can come up with something unexpected and outside the box I think is the one that's going to win it, they are stable mates and friends and just flat out know each other so well, even with the small variations the two girls have put into the match so far, the other has been able to counter.

[Jade is the first to her feet, helping Amariie up by the hair and once Amariie is up, unleashes with kicks, first with the left leg, then the right, then left leg again, targeting Amariie's legs first then connecting with on to her rib area and follows up with a jumping spinning back kick to Amariie's torso that staggers the woman back towards the corner, Jade continues her assault with palm strike that is towards one side of Amariie's torso, spinning her around so her back it towards Jade. Jade steps up and wraps both her hands around Amariie's waist and pulls backwards, rolling up into the start of a roll up pin attempt but Jade continues through lifting Amariie off the mat and over her head into a bridging German suplex and holding on. Referee Stephen Tyler slides into position and starts his count....1....2....Amariie manages to roll her shoulders and breaks up the pin attempt.]

Jack Gene - Good Lord! Jade with a rolling German Suplex for another near fall, Amariie had to have kicked out on instinct alone.

Bill Hughes - That move is called the Chaos Theory and Jade nailed it perfectly, that just goes to show you the resolve of Amariie to win this match.

Jack Gene - Whatever it's called, it's damn effective, I thought Jade was going to snap Amariie in half with that impact.

[Both women get up to their feet and Jade moves to set Amariie up for the Jade Kick but Amariie ducks under the high thrust kick and delivers a wicked side kick into Jade's exposed abdomen, bending the champion over before bouncing off the ropes and doing another cartwheel like flip, extending her leg as she flips over and driving Jade down to the mat with her flip axe kick.  Amariie quickly rolls Jade over for a cover, Stephen Tyler sliding down to check the shoulders before starting his count...1...2....Jade wraps one arm around Amariie's neck, rolling out of the pin and bringing Amariie with her, ending up with herself on top with a headlock locked in before shifting it seamlessly into a Kimura arm bar, pushing back with her feet to add even more pressure to the arm.]

Jack Gene - Wow! Jade rolled out of that pin and ended up with a submission hold on Amariie, you can certainly see Hecate's influence in that exchange and it looks like Jade is learning her lessons well.

Bill Hughes -  And a great time in the match to pull out a submission move after these two have gone at it non stop since the bell rang. Both women have to be feeling the exhaustion that has to be setting in by this time. The only issue with this hold is that Jade hasn't really focused on Amariie's arms this match.

[Amariie reaches up with her other arm and pushes back against Jades face before gripping her hair, bringing a warning from Stephen Tyler, but not before that cause just enough slippage in the arm bar for Amariie to grab the ropes with her foot, forcing Jade to break the hold. Jade rolls away as Amariie jumps to her feet and charges at Jade, continuing on to the corner as Jade side steps, hoping up to the second then top turnbuckle and exploding off it with a twisting knee strike aimed at Jade's head but the Shoot champion sidesteps again and connects with the Jade Kick as Amariie comes within range, flipping Amariie inside out and sending her crashing to the mat face first. Jade looks down at Amariie a moment before dragging her into the center of the ring and putting a step over toe hold on Amariie, twisting around so she is facing Amariie's other leg, lifting it and locking it behind her knee then falling backwards with an arch to grab Amariie's head with a dragon sleeper, turning it into a personalized version of the Muta lock...Referee Stephen Tyler checks on Amariie, lifting her arm once and letting it drop, then lifting it a second time and letting it drop, before lifting and letting it drop a third time, Amariie most likely out after the Jade Kick. Stephen Tyler rises up and immediately calls for the bell, Jade instantly releasing the submission hold as Hecate rolls into the ring.]

Jack Gene - This match went right down to the wire, Amariie tried to connect with her flying knee strike but Jade countered with a Jade Kick that twisted Amariie inside out and then locked on a variation of the Muta Lock.

Bill Hughes - My notes say she calls that the Dragon Lock submission, and it looked effective although Amariie could very well have been out after the Jade Kick.

Wayne Inkster - The winner of the match and still Shoot champion....Jade!!!

[Jade and Hecate are checking on Amariie, both of them helping her to her feet and Hecate lifts both their hands as "The Thing that Should not Be starts to play over the audio system. Soft words being exchanged between all three before as a group the three of them leave the ring together.]

Jack Gene - And even after the hell they put each other through, Amariie and Jade are still as tight as sisters.

Bill Hughes - Sisters who mount each other! Man it feels like I'm back in college again.

[The three women continue up the entryway, pausing and turning back to the arena and lifting their hands again, bringing loud cheers from all the fans in attendance before they step into the back.]

Tag Team Championship Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a shot of Umbrage, Valora, Ryven and Kronin in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - This upcoming match is one fans have been dying to see, a rematch from Graveyard Shift 106 where Umbrage and Valora got a non-title victory over the tag team champs and set up this title match tonight
.
John Squires - Umbrage and Valora looking to add to their already impressive resumes here in WMW, Umbrage by becoming the tag champs for the 6th time with his 6th different partner and Valora looking to add the Tag Belts to the Hardcore, Ace Superior and Great Lake's Titles she's won.

Stephen Squires - On the other side we have Kronin who wants his Great Lakes title back from Valora and Ryven who has vowed to replace Umbrage in the record books. The first meeting between these two teams was classic and this one is looking to pick up right where the first one left off.

John Squires - That's right, the biggest questions going into this match will be; can Ryven keep from going all Punisher on Umbrage, and will Kronin be focused on the tag match or will he let his rage against Valora get the better of him?

Stephen Squires - Both very good questions, what are your predictions for this match John? How do you see this all playing out?

John Squires - I am looking for Kronin to really push Valora, testing her but also Kronin has had one busy week and that could play into it, especially after being in Caged Hell less than a week ago. Ryven and Umbrage, those two will go to any lengths to prove they are better than the other one, in the end I'm having to say that history repeats and Valora and Umbrage pull out the win.

Stephen Squires - Ryven was very emphatic with his exclamation that he will hold the tag team belts for 485 days, breaking Umbrage's record. And Kronin's focus lately, I have to disagree with you there and think Kronin and Ryven will pull through when it matters like all good champions do. I'm looking to see the champions focusing on one member of the Hardcore Icons and really test this new tag team like they haven't been tested before.

John Squires - Either way it should be one heck of a match and more than just the tag team titles are on the line, a win here by the Hardcore Icons moves That Damn Awesome! back up into the premier and dominant stable position in the WMW.

Stephen Squires -  So much on the line in one single tag team match, you won't want to miss a single moment of it. And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned!

Kronin & Ryven (c) vs Umbrage & Valora

Written by: Garvin

[The shot opens up inside of the ring, where Wayne Inkster stands next to referee Luna Pier.]

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, the following match is scheduled for one fall and is for the Midwest Tag League Championships. Introducing first, the challengers, they weigh in at a combined 378lbs and represent That Damn Awesome! They are... the Great Lakes Champion Valora and WMW Hall of Famer Umbrage, they are THE HARDCORE ICONS!

['Burn to the Ground' by Nickelback plays and Valora and Umbrage walk out, Valora wearing her GLC belt over her shoulder and holding her trademark lead pipe in her hand, Umbrage coming out, finishing a bottle alcohol, tossing it aside, holding a steel chair in his hand.  Valora moves along the crowd, who is cheering loudly for the two, firing them up raising and pumping the hand that holds the lead pipe in the air every time the chorus of the song has 'Yeah!' in it, the crowd singing along as the duo make their way to the ring.  As they get in, Luna Pier greets them, ordering them to leave their weapons outside the ring. Umbrage and Valora, seem reluctant at first, but then shrug and drop their weapons outside and climb into the ring.]

Jack Gene - And, the challengers for the titles.

Bill Hughes - Man, you even suggest Umbrage and Valora are "challengers". These two are the true Champions. Those titles belong around their waists. You saw their tag match a few weeks back, man - these guys were good.

Jack Gene - But, it's a different night. Tonight, the titles are on the line.

Wayne Inkster - And introducing their opponents, at a combined weight of 475lbs.  They are the WMW Tag Team Champions and are escorted to the ring by Lilly.  They are the team of KRONIN AND RYVEN!!!!

['Uprising' by Muse plays over the PA and the crowd goes nuts as Kronin comes out side by side with Ryven. They pause briefly at the entrance ramp as they share eye contact. They then, uncharacteristically, just walk down to the ring. They both glare towards the ring.]

Bill Hughes - What, no air guitar? Come on, this is a super card. Where's my solo?

Jack Gene - I don't think that's the type of match we're going to have, Bill.

[Valora and Umbrage remain in their corners as Ryven and Kronin enter the ring. Ryven and Kronin walk up to center of the ring where they meet Luna Pier. They quickly remove the titles and hand them to Luna, before glaring over towards Valora and Umbrage.]

Jack Gene - You can tell these two teams are ready to go. But, both have two entirely different motivations. On one hand, you've got the GLC and Umbrage just trying to get a good footing in the MTL. I mean, they got the victory over these two a few weeks ago, but then lost the momentum last week in that big 8-man tag match. Then, on the other side of the ring, you've got the reigning Midwest Tag League Champions and, they've got to be just floating right now with all the confidence in the world.

Bill Hughes - Well, and that's all Valora and Umbrage really want. I mean, it's easy to forget what got you there when you're floating on confidence. Don't short-change the Hardcore Icons.

[Luna Pier, after showing the titles off to the crowd and to the challengers, hands them to Wayne Inkster and calls for the bell.]

Jack Gene - And, here we go. It's the Midwest Tag League Championships on the line as Kronin and Ryven defend them against the Hardcore Icons.

Bill Hughes - Yeah well just because RyKro never made it official, that doesn't mean they don't have a name, too. Unfortunately for them, it'll probably be the last time they're seen with these titles around their waists.

[Valora heads to the outside, as does Kronin. Umbrage and Ryven begin to circle one another, but before they lock up, Ryven walks over to his corner and tags in Kronin. Umbrage stands, laughing to himself.]

Jack Gene - And, apparently, it'll be Kronin starting this match instead?

Bill Hughes - Looks like Ryven is starting the mind games already.

[Kronin and Umbrage then circle, before locking up. Kronin immediately locks on a headlock, but then rolls it into a waist lock. He picks up Umbrage, and takes him down with the help of a leg sweep. From here, he quickly targets Umbrage's neck, and locks on a headlock, wrenching upwards. Umbrage tries to push himself up, while prying Kronin's hands a part. He struggles.]

Jack Gene - Kronin keeping this one on the mat. He seems to be targeting the neck.

Bill Hughes - That's what everyone does. It's so boring. And, just about everyone has found out - you can't beat Umbrage just by targeting the neck. His neck is at 100% now. I mean, my god, it's been over 2 years since his major neck injury.

[Umbrage finally pushes himself to his knees, before grabbing Kronin by the leg and knocking him off balance. Kronin tries to regain his balance, but Umbrage locks him into a grapple, and then powers him over with a belly to belly suplex. Umbrage tries to get a punch in, but Kronin quickly locks his legs around him with a grapevine, and holds onto the back of his head.]

Jack Gene - Kronin keeps Umbrage close. This is a more MMA-style hold as Umbrage now trying to find an opening to get at good shot at Kronin.

Bill Hughes - He's definitely vulnerable here. It'll be all about timing for Umbrage.

[Umbrage is able to push Kronin's arms away and quickly goes for a downward strike. He misses, and Kronin is able to push him self through it, using Umbrage's momentum, causing Umbrage to fall face first to the mat. Kronin, from his knees, once again locks on a headlock.]

Jack Gene - And again, Kronin showing off his mat wrestling abilities. He's got another headlock on. And... Umbrage looks like he's not wasting any time getting back to his feet.

[Umbrage quickly gets back to his feet. He slams a right hand into Kronin's gut, and then drives towards him, causing Kronin to crash against his turnbuckle. Umbrage drives another shoulder into his midsection. He backs out of the corner as Kronin holds his midsection in pain. He turns and looks at Ryven, who stands maybe 1 foot from him. Umbrage then charges towards him and takes a swing, but he misses and Ryven escapes the opposite side of the corner.]

Umbrage - I will end you Ryven!

Bill Hughes - Woah, ho, ho! And Umbrage is calling out Ryven here.

Jack Gene - Ryven had the opportunity to start this match with Umbrage, but he tagged in Kronin only moments after the bell.

Bill Hughes - He's scared of him.

Jack Gene - Well, I wouldn't say that. Ryven's actions are always very calculated.

[Umbrage pulls out Kronin and hits him with a hard right hand. Kronin returns it with a shot of his own, but Umbrage quickly drives a knee to his midsection. He grabs Kronin by the head and locks on a headlock of his own. He wrenches, causing Kronin to struggle.]

Bill Hughes - And now Umbrage showing his mat wrestling abilities.

[Kronin tries desperately to pry Umbrage's hands off. Then, out of nowhere, he springs his knees up, lifting up Umbrage. He slams him to the ground with a backdrop. Umbrage lets go on impact, and quickly holds onto his neck in pain. Kronin sees this and lunges at Umbrage, grabbing onto his head and wrenching back with another headlock.]

Bill Hughes - Man, this is getting to be boring. Just submission after submission. Come on guys, make this entertaining.

Jack Gene - Valora trying to get Umbrage's attention and tag her in. She's raring to go.

[Umbrage is able to power him over, and rolls him up for a quick pin, but Kronin quickly gets back his leverage. This forces Umbrage to push up to his knees, just to be able to get free. He knocks Kronin in the gut with an elbow, causing Kronin to stumble backwards. He goes for a clothesline, but Kronin dodges it, and hits Umbrage with a neck breaker. He makes a quick cover, but Umbrage pushes him off almost immediately. Kronin once again, dives towards him with an elbow to the back of his head. He once again makes a cover on Umbrage.]

Jack Gene - And Kronin, not letting this opportunity slip by. The cover. ...1! and Umbrage again pushes out of it.

[Kronin quickly stands back up as Umbrage begins to crawl towards his corner. He pulls up Umbrage by the head, only to be met with a right hand to the midsection. Umbrage charges towards him and takes him down with a clothesline. Umbrage looks over towards Ryven, who continues to watch from the safety of the corner. He then stomps Kronin in the chest. He grabs Kronin by the head and begins to drag him towards his corner.]

Jack Gene - Hey! Ryven's in the ring!

Bill Hughes - Oh! And he just knocked Valora off of the apron!

[Umbrage sees it and charges Ryven, but Ryven slides out of the ring.]

Jack Gene - And Ryven, not necessarily making the save for Kronin, but definitely throwing Umbrage off of his game.

Bill Hughes - And Valora off the apron! What the hell is going on here? Come on Luna! Get this match under control.

[Umbrage peers over the top rope to check on Valora, as Valora stands up, brushes herself off and begins to walk towards Ryven. Luna Pier immediately leans through the ropes and tells her to get back into her corner.]

Bill Hughes - Valora didn't take very kindly to what Ryven did, and was going to tell him herself.

[Just then, as Valora turns back to her corner, Kronin jumps up and rolls up Umbrage. Pier quickly gets into position.]

Jack Gene - Kronin's got the pin! ...1! ...2! and Umbrage kicks out!

[Kronin immediately locks on a side headlock, as Umbrage stands up. Umbrage pushes him against the ropes, before sending him across the ring. As Kronin comes back, Umbrage goes for a hip toss, but Kronin blocks it. Kronin goes for short-arm clothesline, but Umbrage ducks it and turns it into a Samoan drop.]

Jack Gene - Oh! And a Samoan Drop by the Hall of Famer.

Bill Hughes - Now that was some huge impact.

[Umbrage pushes himself up to his knees. He walks over to Valora and tags her in. She jumps over the top rope and quickly stops Kronin from crawling to the other end. She pulls him up and drives a right elbow to the side of his head. Followed by another. She bounces off the ropes and charges him. He tries to hit a clothesline, but she ducks as she stops behind him. As he turns around, she does a back flip and slams a boot into his forehead, causing him to collapse.]

Jack Gene - The Pele kick! And she's going for the pin. ...1! ...2! And Kronin kicks out!

[She quickly stands up. As he sits up, she quickly swings her right leg, and crashes her shin into his back. This causes him to roll to his knees, arching his back in pain. He pushes up to his knees and then to his feet. She measures him up and delivers another shot to his chest. This time, a left kick. He stumbles backwards, but quickly regains his balance. He reaches out to grab a hold of her, but she boots him in the midsection.]

Bill Hughes - No! He caught it! Oh... oh!

Jack Gene - Enziguri by Valora! And she's going for the pin! ...1! ...2! ...no! And this time Ryven breaks it up.

[Luna Pier quickly stands up and pushes Ryven back to his corner. Umbrage quickly gets into the ring, and charges after Ryven, but Ryven sees him and slides back out to the floor. Pier now tries to get Umbrage out of the ring. Valora stands up, holding her back, where Ryven stomped. She turns her attention back to Kronin. She pulls him up and quickly pushes him against the ropes. She whips him across the ring. As he bounces back, she charges with a clothesline, but he ducks it and runs through it. As he reaches the opposite side, Ryven jumps towards the ring, latches on to Kronin's knee and holds on, forcing Kronin to stop.]

Jack Gene - What the... Ryven just stopped Kronin from that Irish Whip.

Bill Hughes - But here comes Valora! And she...

Jack Gene - No! Valora charges, trying to hit a forearm shot to Kronin, but Ryven pushed him out of the way, and jumped up, and slammed Valora's throat over that top rope, and Valora is down.

[Ryven quickly gets into the ring. He immediately slams a forearm into the side of Valora's head, and then digs his elbow into her face as he makes a cover.]

Jack Gene - I guess referee Luna Pier is seeing that as a legal tag. Here's the pin. ...1! and Valora gets a shoulder up. Ryven, immediately locks on a chin lock, and - wow, what a move by Ryven there. First he basically gets Kronin out of the ring when Kronin needed it the most, then hits that hotshot type move on Valora. And he almost had the pin there, Bill.

Bill Hughes - Almost? Because he got the pin, it's automatically almost a loss? Please, you got to do a lot more damage to the Great Lakes Champion.

[Valora struggles, but is able to pry Ryven's hands apart. She pushes herself up and Ryven lets go. He goes for a right hand, but she blocks it. She goes for a boot to the midsection, but he blocks it. He then pushes her leg to the side, but just as she does, she spins around and clocks him with a spinning heel kick. She quickly makes a cover.]

Jack Gene - And Valora with another kick! The pin! ...1! ...2 and Ryven pushes her off.

[Valora gets back to her feet. She pulls him up and pushes him against the ropes. She then pulls him away from the ropes as Kronin tries to get near them. She goes to whip him into her corner, but he reverses. As he turns to shoot her into the corner, he stops and pulls her in, before going for a belly to belly suplex.]

Jack Gene - Belly to belly throw, OH! But she lands on her feet!

[Valora quickly gets her balance and then charges Ryven and takes him down with a clothesline. She stands up and hovers over him.]

Jack Gene - And Valora takes Ryven down, and Ryven is in a world of hurt here.

[He pulls himself up. Valora charges again, but this time Ryven meets her with a boot to the midsection. Then drops her with a DDT.]

Bill Hughes - No!

Jack Gene - My god! Ryven... just drilled her into the mat with a DDT, and Valora is out of it. She is laying flat on her face. And, Ryven needs to make a tag. And Ryven has pushed himself up to his elbows. He's crawling, trying to reach his corner. Kronin trying to reach for a tag. Umbrage, trying to motivate Valora... and now Valora is to a kneeling position. She's up but I don't think she's aware of where she is. Ryven reaches and... Ryven's got the tag. And here comes Kronin!

Bill Hughes - And Valora makes the tag! It's Umbrage and Kronin!

Jack Gene - And Kronin quickly takes Umbrage off of his feet with a clothesline. And Valora stands up, and Kronin charges her!

Bill Hughes - No!

Jack Gene - Kronin with a clothesline that sends Valora over the top rope!

[Kronin turns and just as he does Umbrage charges him, trying to hit the Riot Act, but Kronin blocks it. Kronin with a kick, and... he's going for his finisher.]

Jack Gene - Death by Metal!

Bill Hughes - No! Valora blocks it!

Jack Gene - And Valora is back in the ring and just leveled Kronin with a right hand. And here comes Ryven! And Ryven pushes Valora through the ropes.

Bill Hughes - But Umbrage grabs him and Umbrage with a right hand, and another! Umbrage finally getting his hands on Ryven, and then just levels him with another right hand.

[Ryven falls to the mat. He rolls out of the ring, but juts as he does, Valora meets him with a right hand of her own, that sends him into the ring barrier. Umbrage turns around, and Kronin immediately pops up and kicks him in the midsection.]

Jack Gene - Kronin with the boot and...

Bill Hughes - Oh no...

Jack Gene - He's going for it and... OH! My god! Death by Metal!

Bill Hughes - Damn it! Come on, Valora, get back into the ring!

Jack Gene - Kronin's got the cover and here's the call. Oh, Valora is trying to get into the ring, but Ryven's got a hold of her leg! ...1! ...2! ...3! It's over!

[The crowd pops.]

Jack Gene - My god!

[Valora kicks Ryven in the shoulder before sliding into the ring. Just as she does, Kronin slides out, quickly walking to the announce table, grabbing the titles. He walks with them as he walks towards Ryven.]

Wayne Inkster - Your winners... and STILL... Midwest Tag League Champions... Kronin and Ryven!

['Uprising' by Muse plays over the PA as the crowd cheers. Kronin reaches Ryven and pulls him up. He hands him the title as they both walk to the ramp.]

Jack Gene - Kronin and Ryven, still your MTL Champions, and what a match put on by both of these two teams.

[They both walk up the ramp without looking back. Valora checks on Umbrage, but keeps her eyes on the MTL Champions as they walk through the curtain.]

After Match Happenings

[As Ryven and Kronin walk through the backstage curtain, cameras follow them. Louie Cwik is the first to greet them.]

Louie Cwik - Congratulations guys. Kronin and Ryven, still the MTL Champions. How do you feel, guys?

[Kronin laughs to himself, out of breath, as he shows a lot of relief. He shakes his head as he looks over at Ryven. Ryven's facial expression is one of pain. He then stops and looks at Louie.]

Ryven - You know... it feels great. It feels great knowing that... the old man in the ring... the old man that held this title for 484 days, is going to have to continue watching me wear it in spite of him.

[Kronin cheers and laughs as he walks into the locker room.]

Ryven - How does it feel that you're going to have to sit there and watch me hold this title... for 485 days?

[With that, Ryven smiles to himself. He walks away from Louie, following Kronin into the locker room. The scene fades.]

Ace Superior Championship Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a shot of Druscilla and Father Nathan in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - And we are just moments away from the Ace Superior Championship Match, folks.  It's also Druscilla vs Father Nathan II.  This promises to be a unique match to say the least.  Both competitors have had a great start to the year thus far and are on a roll.  Druscilla won the Ace Superior Title in the Frostbite Brawl back at Blizzard and has been on a tear, just recently destroying all three of the Knights.  Father Nathan had a disappointing showing in the Frostbite Brawl and since then, made Ryven submit at Graveyard Shift 105, at Graveyard Shift 106, he declared war on the Daughters of Darkness and promptly started that war off by knocking Jade out cold.  At Graveyard 107, he defeated Amariie, to continue his crusade and now, he's looking to defeat a third straight member of the Daughters of Darkness and win the Ace Superior Championship at the same time.

John Squires - I find myself hoping Father Nathan wins this match, but I have to say that Druscilla is the favorite to win this match.  One thing is for sure, though.  Both fighters are risking a lot here.  A loss to Father Nathan would be simply devastating for Druscilla.

Stephen Squires - And if Father Nathan were to lose, it would reinforce the accusation that he is simply not able to beat Druscilla.  But you're right, for Druscilla to lose to Father Nathan in her first title defense, would wipe out all of her momentum that she's built up over the year so far.  This is a match Druscilla simply can't afford to lose and one that Druscilla's pride and ego I don't think could handle letting her lose.

John Squires - Yeah, both fighters are definitely risking a lot tonight and we highlighted Father Nathan's track here but Druscilla just recently fought Kronin, former Great Lakes Champion to a draw, in addition to her big and dominating win over the Knights.  While it would be devastating for Druscilla to lose, there could be a bright side to a loss for Druscilla.

Stephen Squires - What would that be?

John Squires - Well, as you stated, Druscilla fought Kronin to a draw, combined with her win over the Knights, I have heard whispers that Druscilla might be ready to move up to the Great Lakes Division.  We saw Jade do the same thing, let Shank win and defeat her and then climb to the very tops of this company, Druscilla might just be able to make a similar move.

Stephen Squires - Druscilla in the Great Lakes Division is a scary thought.  We will have to see how things develop.  I still see this panning out to a must win for Druscilla.
 
John Squires - I agree with you there John, tonight will find out who deserves to stand atop the Ace Superior division. And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned! 

[The shot fades.]

Druscilla (c) vs Father Nathan

Written by: Jade

Jack Gene - And now, it's time to come to the Ace Superior Title match.  Druscilla vs Father Nathan.  Druscilla is a veteran of big time matches and manages to win more often then she loses.  Meanwhile, Father Nathan has struggled throughout his career but has been on a roll here as of late, defeating Ryven, Jade and Amariie.  Meanwhile, the highlight of Druscilla's past month was winning the ASC in the Frostbit Brawl and defeating Outlaw Biker, Zana Knight and Damian Knight in an elimination handicap match.  Given the rivalry these two have and have had for some time now, this is shaping up to be a classic showdown.

Bill Hughes - Yeah, well, his luck is going to be running out soon.  There's no way Druscilla is going to let herself become the third victim of Father Nathan's little crusade.  Look for the Ace Superior Champ to remind Father Nathan of his place.

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, the next match is for the WMW Ace Superior Championship and it is set for one fall.  Introducing first, the Challenger.  Currently residing right here in Cleveland, Ohio!  He stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighs in tonight at 250lbs.  He is the Conscience of WMW, FATHER NATHAN!!!

[The lights in Arena dim and a Gregorian chant is heard echoing throughout the arena. The voice of Fr. Nathan is heard singing a brief line in Latin. The entrance music then starts as 'Hands on the Bible' by Local H plays over the speakers as Fr. Nathan walks out, his cross strapped to his back, dressed in the black robes of a catholic priest. He pauses a moment and looks around at the crowd,who is cheering for him, smiling as he nods his head to them and raises his hand in a catholic style blessing before he adjusts his dark colored shades, making his way down to the ring, slowly but steadily.  He unslings his cross, laying it to rest at ringside, unfolding a stand to allow the cross to stand. He then kneels down before the cross, making the sign of the cross, and recites the prayer of serenity as the 'Father Nathan' Prayer rises from the crowd, mixed with cheers before standing and climbing into the ring.]

Jack Gene - And here comes Father Nathan, looking focused and determined to win the Ace Superior Championship.  I know you're prepared to write him off, but I believe Father Nathan is in the zone and will give Druscilla one hell of a fight here tonight. 

Bill Hughes - We'll see about that.  I'd bet my firstborn child that Druscilla wins tonight.  Come to think of it, I'd bet your firstborn child that she wins as well.

Jack Gene - My firstborn child?!  Why would you do that?

Bill Hughes - Cause human sacrifice works better when you have more then one, duh.

Wayne Inkster - And introducing his opponent.  Hailing from London, England.  She stands 6 feet tall and weighs in at 220lbs.  She is the reigning and defending WMW Ace Superior Champion and is a member of the Daughters of Darkness.  She is DRUSCILLA!!

[The lights in the arena dim and Druscilla's voice speaks over the PA saying.  "England Prevails!"  'Can Die No More' by Lake of Tears then plays over the PA and Druscilla walks out slowly, holding her chalice and stands at the entrance way, looking down her nose at the ring, a smug sneer on her face.  The crowd boos but Druscilla ignores it as she makes her way down the ramp towards the ring.  When she gets there, she sets her chalice aside and climbs into the ring, giving a sideways glance to her opponent or the entryway as she leans back against one of the turnbuckles and glances towards Father Nathan with a sneer.  When she gets there, she sets her chalice aside and climbs into the ring, giving a sideways glance to her opponent or the entryway as she leans back against one of the turnbuckles and glances over the crowd, an arrogant smirk on her face.]

Jack Gene - And... here comes the champ, Druscilla, looking... well rather dismissive of Father Nathan as she comes down, Bill.

Bill Hughes - With good reason, Jack.  Father Nathan isn't even in her league and now she's forced to defend the title against him, the blatant disrespect Druscilla continues to be shown around here!  You know, she only has a per appearance contract here.... if WMW Management continues to mistreat her, we could see Druscilla jump ship to another fed!

Jack Gene - Well I doubt that she would leave but I also doubt many would miss her either.

Bill Hughes - And you get on MY case about inappropriate things said?

[In the ring, Luna Pier accepts the Ace Superior Belt from Druscilla and shows it to both wrestlers before holding it above her head for a few seconds and then hands it to Wayne Inkster as he leaves the ring.  Father Nathan and Druscilla stare each other down as Pier calls for the bell, which rings and the match starts off with Father Nathan wasting no time, hitting Druscilla with a boot to the midsection, doubling her over before clubbing her on the back, dropping Druscilla to a knee.  Druscilla bounces right up and the two lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, jockeying for position before Druscilla turns the move into a side headlock, leading to her and Nathan exchanging punches as she buries her fist into his face and Nathan responds with punches to Druscilla's mid section, before he finally shrugs her off, Sending her into the ropes.  As she comes off the ropes, Nathan charges forward and tries for a clothesline but Nathan ducks under the attempt.  Druscilla hits the ropes on the other side and Nathan charges forward, taking Druscilla down to the mat with a spear.  Nathan springs back up to his feet and pulls Druscilla to her feet as well but Dru counters with a low blow, grabbing him in a double underhook position slamming her left knee into his face, then her right knee, then her left knee before jumping up and slamming both of her knees into his face, dropping him to the mat as she smirks and backs up, waiting for Father Nathan to get to his feet.  As he does so, Druscilla charges forward and nails Father Nathan in the head with a running knee to the side of the head.  Druscilla plays to the crowd with an arrogant smirk on her face as a chorus of boos rain down from the crowd.]

Jack Gene - And with all the bad blood between these two, it hasn't taken them long to start going at each other.  Both going to the smash mouth style they have been known to use, Druscilla going back to her knees and because of them has gained a slight advantage in the opening of this match. 

Bill Hughes - Of course she has!  Father Nathan can't beat Druscilla!  She has this match in the bag!

[Druscilla urges Father Nathan to his feet.  As he gets to his feet, he raises his fist, Druscilla smirks and does the same.  Father Nathan lunges in, throwing a haymaker which is blocked by Druscilla, who then counters with two left jabs to his ribs before throwing an European uppercut, sending Father Nathan staggering back a few steps.  Druscilla steps in and throws two right jabs before then hitting Father Nathan with a left cross, sending Nathan down a knee.  Druscilla pulls her fist back and prepares for a big time powerful punch but Father Nathan jumps to his feet throwing punches, hitting her with numerous body punches before finishing the combo off  with two hooking punches, one left, one right.  Father Nathan grabs Druscilla as she reels back and whips him into the corner but Druscilla reverses and charges in after him, trying to dive into for a shoulder dive/tackle but at the last second, Nathan moves out of the way and Druscilla slams into the ring post shoulder first, grunting in pain.  Without missing a beat, Father Nathan runs in and pulls Druscilla out before taking her injured arm and taking her down, locking in an arm bar, forcing Druscilla to grit her teeth, trying to escape the hold, causing Father Nathan to lock the hold in more as Luna Pier checks for a submission but Druscilla shakes her head no as she rolls onto her side towards Father Nathan and punches him in the face repeatedly forcing him to break the hold.]

Jack Gene - And we just had our two fighters go into a boxing match here folks.  To my count, it looked like a draw.  Druscilla had a good start but she gave him an opening and Father Nathan was ready for it as he jumped to his feet and gave Druscilla a pummeling with his Fightin' Irish combo.  But Druscilla countered Nathan's whip and then ran in after him, trying for a shoulder charge but missed and rammed her shoulder into the ring post.

Bill Hughes - Don't worry, Father Nathan doesn't have the skill to beat Dru, even slightly injured.

Jack Gene - You think so little of him?  What about Jade and Amariie and Ryven?  He beat all three of them to earn this title shot.

Bill Hughes - Well Whyven is overrated, but for Jade and Amariie, everyone has an off night, Jack.  Father Nathan is just lucky but his lucky streak ends here.

[The camera pans to the front row where we see little Mary from an earlier Father Nathan promo and her family sitting there cheering on Father Nathan.]

Jack Gene - Bill!  Look, Little Mary is here tonight at ringside, cheering on her hero!  What an amazing confidence booster and motivator for Father Nathan!

Bill Hughes - Bah!  Father Nathan is going to need an army of sick kids to beat Druscilla!

[Both wrestlers get to their feet and lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, struggling for a superior position before Father Nathan moves her to a headlock, putting her in position for a vertical suplex but Druscilla blocks the attempt before moving around behind him, hooking in for a German suplex.  She tries to lift him up but he widens his base and slams his elbow back.  Druscilla shrugs off the elbow and then pulls up his foot, wrapping a free arm around the back of his neck, locking her hands together and grinning before taking him to the mat in a version of the famous Regal-plex.  Druscilla gets to her feet and grabs Father Nathan, pulling him to his feet and smirking as she slaps him hard enough to send him staggering back a bit and bringing a groan of shared pain from the crowd.]

Jack Gene - Druscilla is showing Father Nathan no respect here!

Bill Hughes - He doesn't deserve any!  He is nowhere near Druscilla's level!

[Druscilla grabs Nathan from behind and tosses him unceremoniously through the ropes and out to the floor.  Father Nathan tumbles to the floor and Druscilla steps out through the ropes and down to the floor, dragging Father Nathan to his feet and whips Nathan into the barricades, right in front of his audience of Little Mary and her family.  Druscilla walks over and smirks, raining down punches on Father Nathan's head before glancing up at Little Mary, then looking down at Father Nathan and smiling.]

Druscilla - Just like old times, eh Nathan?

[Druscilla bares her fangs and leans in, looking to scare Little Mary but Mary jumps to her feet and slaps Druscilla, causing Druscilla to laugh, her laugh cut off as her eyes widen as Father Nathan gets to his feet, lifting Druscilla up into a powerbomb position, looking around for a second before running forward and powerbombing Druscilla into the steel steps, mounting Dru immediately and rains down punches on Druscilla.]

Father Nathan - You leave that girl alone you evil wench!

Jack Gene -My God!  Father Nathan has snapped here tonight, he powerbombed Druscilla on the steel steps after she threatened little Mary!  And OH!  He just rammed Druscilla face first into the ring post!  Druscilla is busted open!

Bill Hughes - Stop the damn match!  He should be disqualified!  This isn't a hardcore match!

[Luna Pier orders the match back into the ring and Father Nathan rolls Druscilla into the ring and follows in after her, dragging Druscilla to her feet before trying to whip her into the ropes but Druscilla reverses the whip attempt and as Father Nathan comes off the ropes, she catches him, lifting him up before spinning 3 full revolutions before slamming him to the mat with a big time Black Hole Slam, going right into a cover, grinding her elbow into his chin as she does so.  Luna Pier drops down and makes the count 1.....2.....3no!  Father Nathan kicks out at the very last second.  Druscilla turns to Luna Pier and barks at her to count faster, clapping her hands together three times quickly, yelling at her to count faster.  Druscilla then pulls Father Nathan to his feet and hooks him in a double underhook position, looking around before lifting him up and slamming him down onto her knee, forcing Father Nathan to arch his back as he rolls on the mat, trying to get to his feet.]

Jack Gene - Well this match is now taking a turn from nasty and personal to downright brutal.  Druscilla hits a massive Black Hole Slam but it wasn't enough to keep Father Nathan down.

Bill Hughes -Druscilla will be making a comeback, just me!

[Druscilla pulls Father Nathan to his feet, and whips him into the ropes.  As he comes off the ropes towards Druscilla, she lifts him up and drops him down into an atomic drop, causing Father Nathan to stand in place, groaning in pain.  Druscilla backs up and runs forward, knocking him to the mat with a clothesline.  Druscilla pulls Father Nathan to his feet but Father Nathan punches Druscilla in the midsection, doubling her over, before hitting her with a European uppercut.  He then moves and kicks Druscilla in the midsection and when she doubles over, he grabs hold of her lifting her up into a fireman's carry as he walks around the ring before rolling forward in a forward Samoan roll, driving his shoulders into her midsection as he does so.  As he comes up to his feet, the crowd cheers and the 'Father Nathan Prayer' rises from the crowd.  Druscilla gets to her feet and charges forward and throws a big punch, Father Nathan ducks and again picks Druscilla up and takes Druscilla down with Death Valley Driver, coming up to one knee bowing his head as if to pray for strength.]

Jack Gene - Father Nathan is in control here!  Forward Samoan roll and now a Death Valley Driver and listen to this crowd, they sense victory is close for the good Father!

Bill Hughes - No!  Dammit, this can't happen!  Druscilla beat three people last week!  She can't lose to Father Nathan of all people!

[As Father Nathan prays, Druscilla gets to her feet and shakes her head, trying to shake the cobwebs before planting her foot on the side of Father Nathan's head, sending him toppling to the mat.  Father Nathan gets to his feet and the two once more lock up in a collar and elbow tie up, jockeying for position before Druscilla hits Father Nathan in the midsection with her knee and then lifts Father Nathan onto her shoulders in a fireman's carry before she tosses him up and over, taking him to the mat face first in a F-5 type maneuver, bringing a chorus of boos from the crowd as she gets to her feet and goes right into the cover, grinding her elbow into the jaw and chin of Father Nathan. Luna Pier counts 1.....2......3no!  Father Nathan kicks out once more.]

Jack Gene - Dark Sacrifice!  But Father Nathan kicks out!  Druscilla looks shocked folks!

Bill Hughes - God Damn It!  Didn't anyone tell Father Nathan the rules?  Finishers are called finishers for a reason, folks!

Jack Gene - Well technically, her finishing move is listed as the Dark Endings move.  What she hit Father Nathan with is a Signature Move.  See, if you paid attention to your job, you'd know these things.

Bill Hughes - I like my life as it is, thank you.  I make more then you, I get invited to all the cool parties, and when Ms. Gene needs a real man-

Jack Gene - Finish that sentence and I swear to God I will deck you.

Bill Hughes - ....I..I'm not afraid of you, you know.  Just there's some weird mojo in the air tonight giving the underdogs super powers...

[Back in the ring, Druscilla gets up to her feet, her eyes wide in disbelief and shock that Father Nathan kicked out, obviously unnerved by the development.  Father Nathan sits up straight, taking a page from Druscilla's playbook and the crowd roars in cheers as Nathan gets to his feet and points at Druscilla.  Druscilla looks around nervous for a second before she takes a deep breath and nods, regaining her composure.  Both wrestlers raise their fists and slowly approach each other Druscilla feigns the punch but boots Nathan in the midsection, hitting him with a quick uppercut as he doubles over from the boot, sending Nathan to the mat.  Druscilla follows the move up with an elbow drop, getting back to her feet and bouncing off the ropes jumping into the air and dropping her knee on Nathan's forehead.  She then pulls Father Nathan to his feet and whips him into the ropes and catches him as he comes off the ropes, trying for a belly to belly suplex but Nathan blocks it and quickly moves in, lifting her up into a Fireman's Carry, walking to the middle of the ring, spinning around slowly for a few seconds before Throwing her over his shoulders and jumping into the air, slamming his knee into Druscilla's head as she comes down.  'The Father Nathan Prayer' and the Lullaby song both raise from various sections of the crowd as Nathan pins Druscilla to the mat.  Luna Pier makes the count 1......2......3!  The bell rings and the crowd goes nuts as Father Nathan jumps to his feet, before falling to his knees praying in thanks for the win, tears falling from his eyes.]

Jack Gene - The Price of Sin!  The Price of Sin!  Father Nathan wins!  We have a new Ace Superior Champion here folks!

Bill Hughes - No!  God Damn It!

Wayne Inkster - Ladies and Gentlemen, your winner, by pin fall, and the new WMW Ace Superior Champion, FATHER NATHAN!!!

[In the ring, Father Nathan grabs a mic and walks over to Druscilla and stands over her, making the sign of the cross over her prone body as he speaks into the mic, the crowd chanting along with him.]

Father Nathan - Nomine Patris, Filii, et Spiritus Sancti

[Father Nathan turns towards the entryway and points towards it.]

Father Nathan - That's 3 champions of your group I have defeated! 

[Father Nathan takes a knee look up at Druscilla who lies on the mat exhausted, looking at him, growling.]

Father Nathan - And you... I have finally paid you back in some small measure for the lives you have ruined.  We all have our crosses to bear.  You have begun to pay the price for your Sins.

[Father Nathan drops the mic on Druscilla's chest and rolls out of the ring, as 'Hands on the Bible' by Local H plays over the PA and as Father Nathan reaches the stands by where little Mary is, he is surprised when she jumps into his arms and he catches her, smiling holding her with one arm as Wayne Inkster comes to Father Nathan and hands him the Ace Superior Title, which he takes as he continues to celebrate his big win, tears of joy falling from his eyes as Druscilla rolls up to her feet and looks at Father Nathan and sighs, shaking her head, a look of complete and utter disbelief on her head as she picks up the mic and speaks:]

Druscilla - H..How did it come to this?  Beaten by a peasant!  Bloody hell... God Damn...God Damn...

[Druscilla then walks up to Father Nathan and sighs narrowing her eyes.]

Druscilla - You have not won the war by any means, Nathan.  Still...victory deserves a reward.... for the lives I took from you I....I apologize...

[Druscilla turns from Nathan, her head hung in shame at her defeat and signals the back as she walks to the backstage area as 'The World Turned Upside Down' plays over the PA.  Father Nathan watches her go, nodding, then goes back to celebrating his win.]

Jack Gene - I can hardly believe this folks.  Father Nathan has finally cashed in a title chance and is now our Ace Superior Champion!  He may just turn out to be one of our best Champions too!  He certainly earned it tonight, Druscilla threw everything she had at him but she could not stop fate and became the third consecutive member of the Daughters of Darkness to fall Father Nathan in as many weeks.  Father Nathan is definitely on a roll and I for one am excited to see how far he can carry this

Bill Hughes - Awww Man!  Father Nathan is going to be the worst Champion ever!  How can we earn respect from the other WWA feds with a... with a... a priest as a champion?!  This is a dark, dark day for the WMW and the Ace Superior Champion!  Poor Druscilla... she looks like she could use some consoling.  I should go check on her.

Jack Gene - Stay here, tiger.  I'm sure the Daughters of Darkness will handle the consolation of Druscilla, who did, indeed look very...unusual for her.  I've never seen her so...

Bill Hughes - Depressed.  Her loss really seemed to shake her...

All-In Challenge Buildup

[The shot opens up in the back where John Squires and Stephen Squires sit. Behind them is a wide screen TV with the Groundhog Slay 2010 logo and a group shot of all the All-In Challenge participants in the ring.] 

Stephen Squires - What a night we've had and it's not over yet. Coming up is the main event, the match everyone has been waiting for all night... the All-In challenge, where the who's who of WMW climbs into the ring in a pot luck drawn battle royal, two start and people keep coming in on timed intervals and the winner is the last one standing in the ring.

John Squires - And what a list of people we have, every member of That Damn Awesome, almost all of the defunct Pinnacle of Power and the Daughters of Darkness, and many more. And because it's a random drawn you never know who will be next to enter the ring.

Stephen Squires - There really is no way to have a set strategy for this match, you have to be fluid and adjust to what's happening in the ring.

John Squires - Absolutely, and there will be alliances made, alliance broken, friends stabbed in the back, nothing will be sacred in this match and all we can say is don't miss a moment of the action cause you never know what will happen.

Stephen Squires - I know this will be asking a lot of you John, but who is your predictions for the match, most likely to win and give us a surprise pick as well.

John Squires -Oh lord, that is quite a question. I think I'm going to have to go with Kronin for the win, he came in second last year and he's been on a roll this year. I know it's had a busy week but I think he will pull this out. Surprise pick, wow ...that is a tough one ..but I will have to go with Demetrius De'Angelo aka Gras-Dawg, this match should fit with his street fighting background well. What about you Stephen?

Stephen Squires - Payback is fair play I supposed. My pick to win this match will have to be AWS Man, he's already done it before and he knows how to get it done. In addition this is just the platform to re-establish himself in the WMW with a win here and getting a shot at the Great Lakes Champion. Now my surprise pick, I'm going with Mo' Bad, even though he hasn't had the best return, he's been impressive and this sort of match can get him right back in the hunt for a title.

John Squires - Wow that is a surprise pick, but no worse than mine I suppose. As you can see, anything can and most likely will happen at the All-In Challenge and who knows who will actually survive the match once all is said and done.

Stephen Squires - The only way to know is to watch the match, see the best of the WMW go at it for a chance for a Great Lakes title match. And that match is coming up next. This is Groundhog Slay 2010! Stay tuned!

All in Challenge

Written by: Umbrage

Bill Hughes - Jack!  Jack!  it's time!  It's time!  Oh, it's time!


Jack Gene - Yes it is, Bill.  It's time for the All-In!

 

[Ding! Ding!]

 

Wayne Inkster - The following contest is the All-In Battle Royal!  The match begins with two competitors, and every two minutes, another competitor will come to the ring and enter the competition.  A competitor can only be eliminated by going over the top rope and having both feet touch the floor!  Our first competitor is...


["Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against the Machine echoes through the arena, as Umbrage steps out, his fist raised in the air, much to the crowd's cheers.

Jack Gene - Umbrage!  I can't believe it! What an unlucky draw.

Wayne Inkster - Hailing Detroit, Michigan, weighing 235 pounds.  He is the "Age of Rage" and a 2009 Hall of Fame Inductee.  He is Umbrage!

[Umbrage rolls into the ring his fist immediately in the air as he gets to his feet, and steps up onto the second rope to pose for the flashbulbs.]

Bill Hughes -  If anyone can go from number one to win this thing, it's Umbrage.  I mean, he made it most of the way last year, entering at number two, and come on, Jack -- If AWS Man (also known as Bill) can do it from number one, Umbrage surely can.

Jack Gene - True, but Umbrage hasn't been in the ring as much lately.  I think that might affect his chances.

Bill Hughes - Look at last year.  Who eliminated Umbrage last year?  Ryven.  What happened?  The two are still fighting.  I tell you, Jacko, this match can make or break any competitor in Wrestling Midwest.  The definition of a feud can begin or end in this match.

Jack Gene - Apparently, Umbrage is ready for this or is getting ready, as he's stretching.  Apparently, he's preparing for the long haul here, and with good reason.

["Bulls on Parade" fades out and Umbrage looks to the entrance way for his first challenge.]

Bill Hughes -  Five bucks it's Ryven.

Jack Gene - You're on.

["You Found Me" by The Fray blasts from the PA as Damian Knight walks to the ring.]

Bill Hughes - I called it!  Damian Knight!

Jack Gene - You called Ryven!  You owe me five bucks!

Bill Hughes - Eat a dick, Jack.  I'll go double on entrant three,

Jack Gene - Done.

Bill Hughes - This is going to be a good start for sure.  Damian Knight, or as he was known, MOD, has always wanted a piece of Umbrage for some reason.

Jack Gene - I believe they have met up before.  Can someone in the back hit up the record books?

Bill Hughes -  Nevertheless, Damian Knight is taking his turn with the crowd, and Umbrage is watching him with evil eyes.  

[Ding! Ding!]

Jack Gene -  Here we go!

Bill Hughes - Both men circle before locking up, both exerting force, and it's like the immovable force against the unstoppable object!

Jack Gene - Don't you mean --

Bill Hughes -  Avoiding the lawsuits, sir.  Gimmick infringement is not something  I'm indulging in this year.  Umbrage starts getting the upper hand and  Knight turns it around with a few knees to Umbrage's gut, causing a release.  Damian Knight follows up with a few right hooks across Umbrage's brow, causing the former Triple Champion to stumble back to the ropes.  

Jack Gene - not a smart move for Umbrage to make, especially with Damian Knight in the ring.  Damian has that smirk on his face, and he goes forward, attempting to clothesline Umbrage out, but Umbrage sense it coming!  He drops to his back and Damian throws on the brakes.  Umbrage rolls away, and get to his feet, and the crowd is excited!  Umbrage flips off Knight, and they charge each other, locking up again.

Bill Hughes-  But this time, Jack, Umbrage gets the better of Mr. Knight, and applies a tight headlock on him.  After locking in that headlock, Umbrage releases, and sends Knight to the ropes.  As he rebounds, Umbrage jumps and plants a dropkick right on his face.  But, Damian doesn't drop!  He's stunned, but he absorbed the Age of Rage's impact!  F'ing amazing!  Umby bounces off the ropes to go for a clothesline, but Knight impacts him with a big spear!  Umbrage is holding his abs after the impact and the clock counts down....

BUZZ!]

Jack Gene - Who is it?

["Grounds for Divorce" by Elbow blasts from the PA as Ryven walks down towards the ring.]

Bill Hughes -  SHOW ME THE MONEY!  RYVEN!

Jack Gene - I hate you.

Bill Hughes - Ryven smiles as he slides into the ring, seeing Umbrage down.  Damian Knight sees Ryven enter, and tosses Umbrage to him.  Ryven complies with a clothesline, and here comes Damian Knight for a spear for Ryven!  

Jack Gene - NO!  Damian charged  for the spear, but Ryven jumped knees up, and managed to connect with a codebreaker!  That was huge!

Bill Hughes - Ryven gets to his feet, and looks at the two fallen competitors.  With a maniacal smile, he begins laying boots into Damian and Umbrage.  Ryven came in at a good time, but he has a long way to go.  Ryven pulls Umbrage to his feet, says something, then backhand chops him right across the chest!  Umbrage stumbles back from the impact, and Ryven follows.

Jack Gene - Ryven connects with a hard elbow to the back of Umbrage's skull, dropping him face first to the mat.  Ryven begins to reach down and grab Umbrage but Damian Knight reaches around and applies an inverted face lock.  He pulls off an inverted suplex on Ryven, and  the crowd pops!  Ryven didn't see that coming!

Bill Hughes - Yeah, but he should have, Jack.  Damian and Umbrage haven't been in the ring that long, and with both being veterans, they won't wear down that easily.  Damian pulls Ryven up and hits the Business Plan before turning back to Umbrage!  

Jack Gene - Man, he hit that finisher early, and Ryven rolls away, writhing in pain!

Bill Hughes - Umbrage connects with Knight's head with a few rights, before a big left European uppercut spins the big man around.  Umbrage reaches up, swivels his hips and hits a nice standing neck breaker!  That's gotta be a tribute to the late great Ravishing Rick Rude!  That. Was. Awesome!  Umbrage is the quicker man to his feet and plants a knee on the back of Knight's head.  

Jack Gene - I see his plan!  injure the head and neck, and the big man will be disoriented enough to eliminate!  Umbrage stands then hits a leg drop into the neck region of Damian Knight, then goes to pick Ryven up by his scalp.  Ryven, quick on the draw, plants a few forearms into Umbrage's midsection to allow himself to get to his feet.  Ryven grabs Umbrage's head and drives his knee into his face, then maneuvers him to a DDT.

Bill Hughes - Ryven looks pleased as he sits post-DDT, but Damian Knight is on his feet, and hits a running boot to the back of Ryven!  That was sick!  Damian picks Ryven up by the scruff of his neck and shoves him over the top rope!  But Ryven hangs on!  Damian sees it and goes to pry him off, but Umbrage hooks him from behind for a exploder German suplex!

Jack Gene - That was an epic save!  Ryven steps into the ring, and Umbrage Irish whips him to the opposite side of the ring, and Ryven tries to avoid Damian's body by jumping, but ends up putting himself over the top rope!  He hangs on again, as the crowd counts down...

["Take yo panties off" by Wax-a-million comes out of the arena's sound system.]

Jack Gene - Here comes Hell Rell!

Bill Hughes - The hip-hop homeboy slides into the ring, and he begins double arm chopping Umbrage!  The Hall of Famer is being backed up by this young upstart!  C'mon Umbrage!  Get that Uncle Tom!

Jack Gene - You didn't just say that, did you?

Bill Hughes -  Say what?  Rell backs Umbrage into a corner, and Damian Knight is stalking the unaware Hell Rell, and  ---OH SNAP!  Rell knew!  He just hit an unsuspecting super kick on Damian Knight, and Knight's dropped to his knees!  That's another twenty thousand, ain't it, Jack?

Jack Gene - I think that was a one time thing, Bill, but Hell Rell's making an impact here!  He hits a bulldog on the stunned Damian Knight, but as he gets to his feet, he's met with a running dropkick from Ryven!  What an impact!

Bill Hughes - Ryven picks up Rell then slams him into the corner.  He shouts something to Umbrage, and Umbrage charges in with a big spear right in the corner!  But uh oh!  Ryven and Umbrage are now nose to nose talking something which I'm assuming tastes like smack!  Knight charges them both for a double clothesline, but both men spin him around .  Ryven roundhouses high and Umbrage sweeps low, and the big man is down!    Hell Rell makes his way over and begins chopping Umbrage in the back, but Umbrage hits a back elbow, then a snapmare on Rell.  

Jack Gene - Rell's trying to shake off the cobwebs from that, but as Umbrage backs away, Ryven kicks Rell right in the head!  Ryven spins around and pulls Hell Rell to his feet, and Umbrage pulls Knight to his feet. Rell starts shopping at Ryven, trying to avoid being eliminated, and Umbrage is pushing on Damian Knight, trying to get him over the top rope.  OH!  Ryven got Hell Rell over the top rope!  Rell's hanging on though!

Bill Hughes - Ryven's trying to peel his hands off the top rope,  but Hell Rell spins, getting his legs under the bottom rope.  He shifts his weight and begins throwing punches into Ryven, then tries to pull him over the top rope!  Ryven's struggling against it!  On the other side of the ring, Umbrage and Damian Knight are battling, and Damian Knight is getting the upper hand!  Three elbow strikes to Umbrage's brow, and he's busted open!  Knight continues to stalk Umbrage and strike his back, but Umbrage steps away with each strike.

Jack Gene - He's resilient, but on the other side of the ring, Ryven drops down to escape Rell's punches, but Rell flies under the bottom rope and hits an x-factor on Ryven!  And the crowd pops for another competitor!

[An Indian battle cry echoes through the arena as Hiawatha charges to the ring.]

Jack Gene - Hiawatha!  

Bill Hughes - Hiawatha slides into the ring and clotheslines Umbrage to the mat, but he turns and is met with a big boot from Damian Knight!  Damian picks up Hiawatha, and begins to choke him, while Hell Rell gets Ryven to his feet, then Irish whips him over the top rope!  Ryven managed to grab  the top rope, but Rell's attention is elsewhere, so he didn't notice.  Instead, he's taking chops at Umbrage!  Umbrage lashes out with a knee lift then shoves Rell backwards into a waiting Ryven!  Ryven hooks an exploder German suplex, and Hell Rell is over the top rope and to the floor!

Wayne Inkster - Hell Rell has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - That was an amazing suplex, and the first elimination has been made.  Hell Rell, thanks for playing.  Hiawatha is delivering kicks to Damian Knight's arms to break the choke, and he manages to do so, then he dropkicks Damian's lower leg, sending him stumbling back into Umbrage! Umbrage lifts Knight up for a back suplex, and Ryven moves over to also apply a neck breaker!  It looks like everyone's starting to get on the same page -- get the biggest man out as soon as possible.

Bill Hughes - That may be what's going on.  As Damian Knight is getting to his feet, Umbrage and Ryven are facing him from diagonals, and Hiawatha maneuvers behind him.  Umbrage feigns an attack, and Knight goes to counter a move that's not coming!  Hiawatha comes up and over for a bulldog, and Damian's head bounces off the mat, and he is on his knees!  Ryven with a roundhouse to his face, and Umbrage pulls Knight up and Irish whips him over the top rope, but somehow the big man hangs on!  Ryven goes to peel Knight off the ropes and eliminate him...  OW!  Hiawatha with a super kick right to Umbrage's jaw, and he's dropped to the mat!  He then attempts the same move on Ryven!

Jack Gene -  But Ryven caught it, spins Hiawatha around and drills him with a big clothesline!  That's given Damian Knight the opportunity to get back in the ring, and he drills Ryven with a big boot as he turns around!  Damian Knight raises his hand high in the air, as he is the only man standing in that ring, and he's just waiting for the next body to get up. 

Bill Hughes - He looks ready to toss the next guy to get to his feet up and over the top rope, and right to the floor.  Damian Knight looks pissed, and he's ready to start eliminating...  He's surveying the fallen, and who's going to get to their feet first?  I mean, if I were Damian, I wouldn't bend over and pick anyone up!  Let them do the work!  And now, the countdown starts again!

["Never Let It Die," by Hatebreed echoes throughout the arena as Eric Dillinger runs down to the ring, and slides in.]

Jack Gene - Here is the newcomer, Eric Dillinger!  Eric slides into the ring and immediately begins laying forearms into Damian Knight!  Dillinger sends the big man to the ropes, and then leaps with a flying cross body to drop Knight right to the mat!  Dillinger with a legdrop, then he pulls Damian to his feet, and then another irish whip to the ropes.

Bill Hughes - He impacts Knight with a Lou Thesz press, and beings hammering fists into Knight's melon!  I tell ya, Jack, it looks like Eric Dillinger wants to make a huge impact in Wrestling Midwest by taking on Damian Knight, and I've spoken with Damian.  This is the perfect way to get under his skin, that's for sure.

Jack Gene - Sure is, Bill.    But while Eric's busy with Knight, Hiawatha and Umbrage are getting to their feet, and Umbrage doesn't look happy after that super kick.

Bill Hughes - When is Umbrage ever happy?  Umbrage stomps Hiawatha in the gut then plants him with an impact DDT, right to the mat.  Umbrage turns and comes face to face with Ryven, and again, they trade words, then turn.  Umbrage runs with Ryven a bit behind, and with a front flip, Bridge grabs Dillinger's head, slamming it into the mat next to Damian's, and as he Eric comes back up, Ryven hits the opposing ropes and then implants a missile dropkick in his face!

Jack Gene - Wow, there's some teamwork going on there, and it's a smart play, but who's going to turn on who?

Bill Hughes - Hiawatha applies an inverted face lock from behind to Umbrage and hits a suplex!  Had he been five feet closer to the ropes, Umbrage would have been tossed right the *BLEEP* out!  Ryven goes for a shot at Hiawatha, but Damian Knight intervenes!  Before Ryven can react, he's lifted up for a big choke slam, right to the mat!  I think that choke slam knocked a few of my fillings loose!

Jack Gene - You know, Bill, that ring's getting full, and we don't seem to have a shortage of people.  I mean, Aside from Hell Rell, no one has been eliminated!  Chaos is going to erupt in there.

Bill Hughes - Thanks, Mr. Obvious.  Eric Dillinger is getting to his feet, and Damian Knight slaps his hand around his throat!  Eric with some hard chops to Knight's arm, then a boot to his midsection, and Dillinger is free!  Dillinger hits an elbow strike to Knight's head, then another boot to his midsection, and he's signalling for something....

Jack Gene - He sure is, Bill.  Eric Dillinger shoots in and grabs Damian Knight, and WHAM!  He hits a death valley driver!  That's what he calls the Dillinger Driver, and he just laid out Damian Knight in a big way.  Dillinger with a fist in the air to the crowd's enjoyment, or is it for Umbrage?

Bill Hughes - Umbrage is right behind him!  Umbrage spins him around, and before he can react, Umbrage hits him with the Riot Act!  That spine buster is one of the best in the business, toppling even "Double A".  On the other side of the ring, Ryven and Hiawatha are trading blows, and Hiawatha sends Ryven across the ring.

[The Sword's "Freya" rumbles through the speakers as Kronin comes out to a big pop.]

Bill Hughes - It's Kronin!  He drew number seven!

Jack Gene - And he's smart.  He's taking his time.  Back in the ring though, Umbrage pulls Eric Dillinger to his feet, and looks to Irish whip him out, but Dillinger drops to his knees and gives Umbrage a chop to the abs!  Not many men can come back from a Riot Act so quickly, so it's good for Eric to have recently entered the match.  He's still got some freshness to him.  Eric hooks Umby's leg and topples him backwards to the mat, giving himself time to get up.

Bill Hughes - It's smart, but Ryven hits a German suplex on Eric to take him down a peg!  And look outside the ring!  Kronin rolls Hiawatha into the ring, and steps in himself.  He pulls Hiawatha to his feet, and they begin trading blows.  Hiawatha with a BRILLIANT kick to the groin, and then a DDT to plant Kronin!  Elsewhere, Ryven gets Dillinger to his feet, then lifts him over the top rope, but no!  Eric Dillinger lands on the apron!  And Hiawatha charges over to attempt to clothesline both men out!

Jack Gene - Ryven ducks, and Dillinger pulls the top rope down, sending Hiawatha over the top rope, but he lands on the apron as well!  Eric kicks him in the groin, giving a bit of revenge on Kronin's behalf, then hits a DDT on the apron!  Hiawatha falls to the floor!

Wayne Inkster - Hiawatha has been eliminated!

Bill Hughes - That was effing huge!  Dillinger rolls under the bottom rope for a breather, while Damian Knight is to his feet.  Umbrage and Ryven both charge at Damian who tries to clothesline them both.  They duck and while Umbrage is met with a diving clothesline from Kronin, Ryven gets off free and clear!  He rebounds off the ropes, but gets tripped up by Eric Dillinger!  

Jack Gene - Dillinger stands and shouts at the fallen Ryven, and from behind Damian Knight applies an inverted headlock, and then spins 180 degrees with an elbow crashing down for the Final Cut!

Bill Hughes - Final cut, Eye of the Hurricane, same thing!  Either way, Dillinger is on the mat, and Damian Knight's quite pleased.  Kronin now has Umbrage sitting in the corner and is pummeling his midsection with kicks.  Damian Knight pulls Ryven to his feet, and is embedding overhead chops to his back.  Ryven staggers to a corner, smartly using the corner to drop into to evade the strikes.  Kronin steps back to the middle if the ring and charges, with a dropkick to Umbrage's head, and Umby's out cold!

Jack Gene - That...  That's just sick.  Damian Knight looks at Umbrage, then turns, with a big spear, right to Kronin!  He just blindsided him!  What a big move!  But from behind!  Eric Dillinger!  He slaps on a full nelson and drags Damian Knight backwards!  He lifts up for the Punk 'n' Disorderly full nelson slam!  He just put Damian Knight up and over the top rope to the floor!

Wayne Inkster - Damian Knight has been eliminated!

Bill Hughes - I can't believe that!  He's out, and he's pissed!  He gets to his feet, reaches in, and drags Eric out under the bottom rope!  They're trading blows, and the referees are trying to separate them!  Damian Knight and Eric Dillinger explode, refs getting tossed to the ground!  Knight bounces Dillinger's head off the ring apron then lays three big knees into his stomach!  He puts him in the headscissors and lifts him up for a powerbomb!  Eric Dillinger fights back with punches, but Damian Knight turns and executes the powerbomb though the table!  The refs force Damian Knight up the ramp, and it's taking all of them!

Jack Gene - And the count begins again

[Inkusbus Sukkubus's "Wytches" rumbles through arena and Hecate ]

Bill Hughes - And the hotness level just rised!  Tittays!

Jack Gene - Jesus, Bill!

Bill Hughes - No, it's Hecate!  She's not Jesus!  Would Jesus have a rack like that?

Jack Gene - Whatever she is, she passes the refs and Damian Knight before taking a moment to survey the ring action, slowly pacing the exterior.  In the ring, Ryven and Kronin are on their feet, and Umbrage is getting his wits about him in the corner.  Both men look at the fallen Umbrage, and charge in, but Ryven stops short, just watching Kronin stomp away at Bridge!  Hecate slides into the ring and punches Kronin, then rakes Ryven's eyes!

Bill Hughes - She's doing the smart thing -- taking the attention off Umbrage, because even if they aren't on the same side, they're in the ring with a tag team, and that can spell disaster.  Hecate with a short-arm clothesline on Ryven, then a mule kick to Kronin, and both men are on the mat.  Hecate pulls up Umbrage, then Irish whips him to the opposite corner, and he's up and over from the impact!  He manages to catch the ring post, and hang on, placing his feet  on the apron.  Hecate goes to charge at Umbrage, and Kronin trips her up!  She impacts the mat face first!

Jack Gene - She may be dazed, but she's scrambling to her feet, as is Kronin, and Ryven. Both men lay in double chops to her chest --

Crowd - Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Jack Gene - and then they both send her to the opposite corner towards Umbrage!  Umbrage quickly rolls under the bottom rope, and Kronin sends Ryven flying to splash Hecate in the corner.... but she moves!  Ryven impacts the turnbuckle, and Hecate leans on the ropes!  Kronin runs over and clotheslines her out, but she's got the top rope!  Her feet haven't touched!  Hecate pulls and lifts herself back over the top rope, and she turns  so meet Kronin chest to chest!  She goes for a suplex, but Kronin reverses, and hits a suplex of his own!

Bill Hughes - Tough break for both of them, as they both could have eliminated the other in that trade-off, but didn't.  OH!  As Kronin was starting to get to his feet, Umbrage comes in out of nowhere, and slams Kronin's face into his knee!  I mean, that was right out of Hunter Hearst He--

Jack Gene - That's someone else's signature move, Bill, but it's effective and that's why Umbrage used it.

Bill Hughes - Sure is.  Ryven starts picking up Hecate, but she jabs his abs, and then grabs his head, and connects with an X-factor, and that'll give her the time to get her wits.  Umbrage grabs Kronin for an Olympic slam, then rolls to his feet.  Kronin, also getting to his feet a moment later, is whipped to the ropes, and Umbrage connects with a black hole slam, and wow!  That thing shook the whole ring!

Jack Gene - Sure did, Bill.  But Eric Dillinger just slid in and drop kicked Umbrage in the back of the head!  E D smirks, but Hecate grabs his legs and gives him an electric chair slam!  He did NOT see that coming!

Bill Hughes - How could he?  She came from behind!  HA!  That's what she said!

Jack Gene - I hate you.

Bull Hughes - Like I care.  You can eat a dick.  Kronin is up and he chops her in the back, then hooks an inverted DDT on her.  Ryven pulls her up and sends her to the ropes.  He drops to all fours, and Kronin  uses him as a stepstool to hit an enzugiri on a returning Hecate!  This is not the first time Hecate's taken some tag team pounding, that's for sure!

Jack Gene - Dude! 

Bill Hughes - I won't let you censor me!  I'll call sexual harassment!

Jack Gene - How in the...  never mind.

Bill Hughes - Umbrage and Eric are up, and nod to each other.... and they both hook belly to back suplexes on Kronin and Ryven respectively!  Eric celebrates the suplex, and Umbrage kicks him in the gut and connects with a double underhook DDT!  He rolls to his feet and then begins stomping a hole through Kronin, and man, them boots is made for stompin'.  Hecate is now up, and she sees that opening.  She spins Umbrage around and hits him with a lunar eclipse!  He's down for sure!

Jack Gene - And the countdown begins again!  Who will be next to enter?

[The "Jade Dragon Concerto" echoes throughout the arena as Jade runs out and to the ring.]

Bill Hughes - We just doubled the dairy!  Jade is in the house!

Jack Gene - How you don't get sued is so beyond me right now.  Ryven heads to meet Jade, and they begin trading blows, and you can tell, Ryven's not going to hold back.  Unfortunately for him, it's a weathered Ryven against a fresh Jade.  While they're going at it, Hecate has Eric Dillinger in a surfboard stretch.  He's writhing in pain, and she's not letting go!

Bill Hughes - Why would she, Jack?  I mean, there's no rules.  She doesn't have to and I don't blame her!  She's giving that guy the what for!  Newbie, time to get some lessons taught!  Kronin's got his wits about him, and he sees Ryven and Jade trading blows.  Wanting none of it, he heads over to Umbrage and pulls him to his feet.  He beings pushing Bridge over the top rope, but right now, Umbrage is all dead weight!

Jack Gene - Moving dead weight like that over that top rope is quite the feat, and with Kronin's state of daze, I'm not sure he's prepared to do it.  

Bill Hughes - I guess not.  He's giving up.  No wait.  Kronin grabs the top rope and jumps, using his momentum to kick Umbrage in the ribs and out under the bottom rope.  If you can't eliminate a guy, get him the hell out of the way!

Jack Gene - I just hope Kronin doesn't forget about him, because that can really come back to haunt him, and everyone else in this match!  With Umbrage out of the way, Kronin turns his attention to the rest of the ring.  Jade is giving Ryven the Death of a Thousand Kicks, and setting up for the Jade Dragon Kick!  Kronin dashes, and he clotheslines Jade, keeping her from dealing that final blow to his tag team partner!

Bill Hughes - But tag teams really don't matter in a match like this, Jack.  At some point, they're either going to be eliminated or have to turn on each other.  Hecate's finally released Dillinger, and now, she's got him up for a DDT.  He shoves her away as he still tries to get his bearings, but as she bounces off the ropes, she connects with a Fameasser!  Eric Dillinger is down on the mat!  Ryven's on all fours collecting himself as Kronin pulls Jade to her feet, and suplexes her right back down to the mat.

Jack Gene - Ryven seeing the opening, drops a forearm across Jade's forehead, and OHMYGOD!  Hecate out of nowhere with a rolling senton onto Kronin!  Hecate turns her attention to Ryven, and she hits a standing dropkick on him!  He's about over and Hecate goes to clothesline him out, but Umbrage stops her!  He hip tosses her to the mat, then super kicks Ryven over the top rope!

Wayne Inkster - Ryven has been eliminated!

Bill Hughes - Wow!  Umbrage was working well with his part-time nemesis, and now, he's up over and out!  Eric Dillinger charges Umbrage and Umbrage upends him over the top rope, but he lands on the apron!  Jade is off the opposite ropes and she tries to clothesline Umbrage out, and he ducks!  She hits the ropes and Eric Dillinger with a big shoulder right to her midsection from between the top and middle ropes.  He reaches over and flips back into the ring, over Jade, as if to pin her!

jack Gene - Jade's momentum keeps her rolling to her feet, and she plants a dropkick right into Eric's face.  Kronin and Umbrage are trading blows, and  Kronin with a big knee!  He places him in the head scissors, and signals!  

Jack Gene and Bill Hughes  - (in unison) DEATH!  BY!  METAL!

Bill Hughes - Kronin just hit his Death by Metal finisher on Umbrage, and Umbrage is out cold!  He might need another neck surgery after that one!  Kronin pulls Umbrage up and then irish whips him over the ropes!  Umbrage is over and on the floor!

Wayne Inkster - Umbrage has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - He's going to feel that impact for a while!  Another one gone, and we still have ways to go! Jade is on her feet, and as Kronin turns, she goes for a super kick!  He catches it, spins her, and drops her with a good ol' short arm.  Hecate hits Kronin with a double chop to the chest and the count begins again!

["Get Up" by 50 Cent plays and Gras-Dawg heads to the ring.]

Bill Hughes - Gras-Dawg is number ten, and we're past the halfway point.  Hecate and Jade are starting to work over Kronin, and with good measure. I mean, he was the last eliminated last y--

Jack Gene - Check out the outside of the ring!  Gras-Dawg went to get on the ring steps, and he ran into a pissed off Umbrage!  Umbrage speared him off the ring steps to the floor, and he's pummelling him with fists!  Someone get Umbrage out of here!

Bill Hughes - All's fair in love, war, and the WMW All-in Challenge!  He should have stayed out of Bridge's way!  Back in the ring, Jade and Hecate send Kronin to the ropes, and hit him with a double clothesline.  He's down, and they look quite pleased with all that sweat dripping into their respective cleavage....

Jack Gene - Can you please just call the match and not think about breasts?

Bill Hughes- Mmmmm..... Peaches....

Jack Gene - Well, Bill's in a vegetative state, and Eric Dillinger knocks both women down with a big diving clothesline, buying a bit of time.  He immediately goes after Jade with a thrust kick to the side of her head, rolling her to the edge of the ring, before turning his attention to Hecate.  A big ax handle to her back, then he pulls her up by her jaw.  He shouts something at her, then hits an elbow strike to her face, sending her back to the mat.  Eric looks over is shoulder, sensing Kronin's eyes locked on him before Kronin hits a legdrop on Jade.  Meanwhile, the refs now have Umbrage backstage, and Gras-Dawg is shaking the cobwebs on the outside of the ring.

Bill Hughes - Eric still on Hecate, throws her to the ropes and she goes over the top rope, catching herself on the apron, but Eric's turned his attention on Kronin and Jade.  Kronin has Jade in a single leg boson crab,  and his back to Dillinger.  You know, Jack, That's probably not the best move to make in a match where you need to be aware of all your opponents.

Jack Gene - Maybe not, but hey -- his choice.  Dillinger rebounds off the ropes  and with a big thrust kick, he kicks Kronin in the face!  Kronin flies off of Jade, the hold broken, and HECATE WITH A SPINNING SPINEBUSTER ON DILLINGER!  That was huge!  Umbrage has to be a bit pissed as she did that with perfect form, right on par with a Riot Act. 

Bill Hughes - Jade is now on her feet and directing traffic here.  Hecate nods, and pulls Eric Dillinger to his feet, and towards the northern ropes.  Hecate tosses Dillinger to the eastern ropes, and as he rebounds, she grabs his legs lifting him up for a flapjack, but Jade with a super kick right to his jaw as he comes down!  Dillinger is dazed and falls against and over the top rope!

Wayne Inkster - Eric Dillinger has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - Dillinger is outta here, and now in the ring is Jade, Hecate, and Kronin.  Three of Wrestling Midwest's stars.  The matches that these wrestlers have given to these fans...  And now, Jade and Hecate nod to each other and start heading toward Kronin....

Bill Hughes - Gras-Dawg!  We forgot about him!  He grabs Jade, spinning her around, then lifts her up for a vertical suplex....  He holds her up and right into that tombstone piledriver!  VOODOO PLUNGE!   He leaves her crumpled body on the mat, then looks at Hecate!  She's looking a bit scared, if she ever has, and Both Kronin and Gras are now stalking her!  She backs into a corner, talking the entire time, and Gras with a roundhouse kick to the back of Kronin's head!  He's dazed as Hecate grabs him for a bulldog, and Gras-Dawg with a scissor kick right to the back of Hecate's head!  Newcomer says holla holla!

Jack Gene - Holla holla?

Bill Hughes - Like that Mountain Holler pop from Save-A-Lot?

Jack Gene - You're retarded.  Nevertheless, the newcomer in the ring is the only one on his feet here, and the crowd is cheering!  Wait!  It's that time!  Countdown!

[The crowd pops as "Invincible" by Adelitas Way blares out of every speaker in the arena.  Valora runs down to the ring, sliding in, and immediately goes after the only standing competitor, Gras-Dawg.]

Bill Hughes - My Latina Princess is feisty tonight, isn't she, Jack?

Jack Gene - Valora is on fire, just making her impact like only she can, Bill.  She irishes him to the ropes, and as he returns, she suplexes him , then hops to her feet.  A quick leg drop to make sure Gras stays down a moment, and Valora's onto Hecate!  a few bustling forearms, and whips her to the ropes.  Valora hits the rebounding Hecate with a hurricanrana, and Jade out of nowhere with a super kick!  Valora matrixes!

Bill Hughes - Smart move, and as she stands again, she applies a right hand smack to Jade's face and goes for her own superkick!  Jade matrixes!  Valora with a standing senton onto Jade, but Jade gets her knees up, and Miss Salinas did NOT expect that.  You see, Jack, that's the brains of Jade, right there.  Jade locks in the sleeperhold to try and slow down V, and Kronin is dropping knees on Gras-dawg.  Hecate is back to her feet, and she begins driving boots into Valora's midsection as Jade wears her down with the sleeper, and Kronin sets up Gras for a DDT.

Jack Gene - Gras-dawg blocks the DDT, then lifts up Kronin, swings him horizontal, and powerslams him to the mat!  Gras sits there for a minute to catch his breath, and  pulls Kronin up and connects with a swinging neckbreaker.  Kronin takes the impact, then rolls to the corner, trying to find some cover.  Gras-dawg, still hungry for some prey, turns his attention over to Hecate, who's still driving boots into Valora.

Bill Hughes - He steps over, and before Jade can warn Hecate, Gras drops Hecate with an inverted DDT.  Jade breaks the hold on Valora, then goes toe to toe with Gras.  They're both spitting some venom over there, Jack, and there's going to be an explosion.  And here we go!  they both land rights into each other, and Gras sends Jade to the ropes.  Wear her legs out dude!  Samoan drop on Jade by Gras-dawg, and the crowd pops!  Hecate pulls Valora to her feet, then flings her in Gras' direction, unbeknownst to him.  Gras stumbles against the ropes, and leaning on the top rope, and that's not a good position when someone's hunting you down.  Hecate tosses Gras' legs over the top rope, but he wisely lands on the apron.  I'm liking this guy more and more.

Jack Gene - You may be, Bill, but Hecate turned around and didn't know he didn't get eliminated!  She instead hits a legdrop on Valora, and Jade does likewise.  Valora's not going to last long in this match if she's going to get teamed up on like this.

Bill Hughes - Hey, three chick session are hot.

Jack Gene - Go each a Hughes family peach.

Bill Hughes - I will.  Three, actually.

Jack Gene - You do that.  Gras-dawg is back into the ring, and walks up to Jade and Hecate as they have their backs to him, stomping on Valora. Gras spins them both around, boots them each in the midsection, and plants them both with a double DDT, laying them both out.  Gras-dawg smiles, then pulls up Valora, and whips her to the ropes, trying to toss her out.

Bill Hughes - Smart move, but there isn't much more room here for these competitors, because the count begins again for some fresh blood!

[“Beautiful Sadness” by The Cranes plays, and Shank walks out.]

Bill Hughes - It's SHANK!  SHANK IS IN THE HIZZY!

Jack Gene - Shank's a huge entrant, in size and placement!  Half the people have already been entered, and as number twelve, he's going to make an impact!  Shank rolls into the ring, and Gras charges him, and is met with a big hand around his throat!  Shank lifts him up and chokeslams him back to the mat, and wow!  What a slam!

Bill Hughes - That's the power of SHANK!  Valora walks over and slams some forearms into the back of SHANK, and you can see, he's a bit pissed.  Valora looks over and sees Hecate and Jade getting to their feet, and she shouts to them.  Valora whips SHANK to the corner, then hits a running kneelift on the big man in the corner!  Valora backs off and Jade follows up with her own running kneelift, and then Hecate with a spear on SHANK into the turnbuckle!  Three ladies on SHANK!?  That's awesome!  OH!  DID YOU SEE THAT!?

Jack Gene - I did, Bill!  I can't believe it!  Valora with a backstabber on Jade!  Valora hit that backstabber on Jade, and then mounted her for some rights to her head!  Hecate, on the other hand is whipping Shank across the ring, and Gras-dawg hits a big shoulder block  Shank, dropping him to the mat!  Gras pulls him up, then whips him towards Hecate.  Hecate pulls down the top rope, and Shank goes mostly over!  He's got a hand on the apron, and hit legs are in the air!

Bill Hughes - Hecate grabs his legs and shoves them over eliminating SHANK!

Wayne Inkster - SHANK has been eliminated!

Bill Hughes - And here comes Gras-dawg trying to clothesline Hecate out of the ring, but she ducks, pulling down the top rope!  Gras-dawg goes over, but he catches the top rope to plant his feet on the apron!  Hecate stands, and takes a shot at Gras.  Gras ducks, then gouges her eyes, then he hooks a suplex to pull Hecate up and over the top rope!  Wow!  He released her, and is still on the apron, fighting the momentum to fall off!  

Jack Gene - Hecate landed on her feet, and while she's in pain, she sweeps his leg, and Gras-dawg is down and out!

Wayne Inkster - Hecate and Gras-dawg has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - And now, there's three!  Kronin, Jade, and Valora!  Kronin's pulling himself up in the corner, and all three are eyeing each other, waiting for someone to make a move....  This is intense, Bill.

Bill Hughes - It is, Jack.  Valora starts toward Kronin, and Jade with a Jade kick right to her chin!  That was huge!  The crowd pops for the sudden impact, and Kronin spears Jade! Right to the mat!  Kronin pulls her up, and the Rock and Shock combo begins!  Kronin drops her with a short-arm clothesline, ala Jake Roberts, then immediately Irish whips Valora across the ring.  She rebounds, and Kronin hits a leaping leg lariat, dropping Valora  to the mat hard!  Jade just gets to her feet, and Kronin boots her in the stomach, folding her over.  he hooks her arms and connects with a Vertibreaker, dropping Jade.  You know, I don't think Jade's going to be too active for a bit, Jack.

Jack Gene - I don't think so either Bill, and rightfully so.  Kronin pops up, then takes a moment to rest on the ring ropes for a moment, before pulling Valora up, and locks in a full nelson.  Kronin shakes her around a bit, increasing the pressure, draining some of the get-up and go out of Valora, and it's a smart move, Bill.  Valora's fresher than Kronin, and he's got to do what he can to lessen her impact if he's going to have a shot to win this.  OH!

Bill Hughes - Kronin with a full nelson slam to Valora, and she's planted!  Jade's getting up, but Kronin spots her as the next entrant countdown begins.

[Father Nathan runs down as 'Elembivos' by Eluveiti plays.]

Jack Gene - Holy crap!  It's Father Nathan!

Bill Hughes - Dammit Jack!  That's my line!

Jack Gene - Whatever.  Nathan slides in at full speed, and immediately plants holy lefts and rights into Kronin's face, but Kronin's dishing them right back!  Nathan gets the upper hand and unleashes the Fightin' Irish combo, and Kronin's stumbling back a bit.  Nathan hits a dropkick to the lower leg of Kronin, and he drops.  Valora's to her feet, and Jade's slowly getting up.  Valora sprints at Fr. Nathan, and he attempts a clothesline.  She ducks, and he continues into Jade!  She's over the top rope, and is barely hanging on!

Bill Hughes - Valora rebounds, and hits a flying cross body into Fr. Nathan, and she rolls to her feet!  The crowd pops, for some ungodly reason, as she just assaulted a holy man!  Valora turns and is met by a big spear from Kronin!  Jade gets her feet on the apron then leaps to the top rope, and hits a 450 degree splash onto Father Nathan!  Oh snap!  Kronin bounces off the ropes and hits a dropkick into Jade's head!  That was insane!  Kronin gets to his feet, and picks up Valora.  He signals to the crowd and he puts her in the headscissors!

Jack Gene and Bill Hughes - DEATH BY METAL!

Jack Gene - For the second time in this match, Kronin's been able to pull Death By Metal, and each time, it's been pretty high impact!

Bill Hughes - Yeah, but Jade's not too pleased with that dropkick, and she swings around and hooks a side effect, bringing Kronin down!  That's why you can't celebrate a big move, Jack.  People like Jade will take advantage.  It's easy to see, really.  Father Nathan is up, though, and he's the freshest man out there, that 450 splash aside.  He rakes her back with Fingernails of God, leaving marks of her sin festering up in her nubile harlot flesh, which begs for a spanking....

Jack Gene - Dude, step back from the fantasy...

Bill Hughes -  .....

Jack Gene - While Bill drools away, Father Nathan is taking Jade to task, following her around the ring, and Kronin and Valora are both getting to their feet.  Nathan follows Jade to the corner, sets her up on the top turnbuckle, followed by some punches to disorient her.  Valora hits a quick enzugiri on Kronin, and he spins, and rolls to the corner as he falls.  Valora quickly moves to assist Nathan with the chops to Jade, and Nathan climbs the an adjacent turnbuckle.  I tell you, folks, this can't be good for Jade.  

Bill Hughes -  .....

Jack Gene - Valora signals, then leaps up for a hurricarana, and as Jade flips forward, Nathan jumps, and HITS A FLYING ROUNDHOUSE KICK TO SEND JADE OVER THE TOP ROPE!

Wayne Inkster - Jade has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - That makes one more to the floor, and we're left with three in the ring!  Valora, Kronin, and Father Nathan!  Father Nathan is smiling, looking at Jade on the outside of the ring, struggling to get to her feet.  Valora up-ends him, and he's got his hands on the top rope, and he's just dangling!  Now Jade's up, and she's pulling at his feet!  She wants him out!  And it looks like the countdown is starting again!

["Kill You " by Dethklok rocks throughout the arena as Adam Pyre runs down to the ring.]

Jack Gene - it's Adam Pyre!  Lucky number fourteen!  Pyre's heading down to the ring, as Kronin picks up Valora for an atomic drop, but tosses her out of the ring onto the stretched Father Nathan!  Nathan dropped!  But Valora gets a hold of the top rope!

Wayne Inkster - Father Nathan has been ---

Jack Gene - The ref is saying something to Wayne....  

Wayne Inkster - Father Nathan has NOT been eliminated!  

Bill Hughes - Huh?  Wait! Look!  Jack!  Father Nathan wound up standing on Jade!  His feet didn't the floor!  He hopped back into the ring, and he enters again as the same time as Valora!.  Kronin looks to attack them, but Adam Pyre with a flying cross body to take down the rockstar!  Pyre with some rapid-fire punches to Kronin's melon, before getting to his feet, and hitting a double dropkick on Valora and Father Nathan!  Kronin is up and so is Pyre.  Pyre boots him in the midsection, and F-BOMB!

Jack Gene - Adam Pyre just totally hit that modified cutter, and Kronin's down!  Pyre to the ropes and he hits a running shooting star press onto Kronin!  I tell you Bill, Adam Pyre is ALL fired up tonight!  Pyre with a roundhouse kick to Valora's head, putting her down, then he grabs Father Nathan and throws him to the corner.  He charges forward and connects with the Agent Orange running kneelift!  Father Nathan's dazed, and Adam drops him to the mat with a bulldog!  I tell you Bill, it's become the Adam Pyre show.

Bill Hughes - It sure has.  I mean, he's hitting everything on everyone!  He looks over and sees Kronin getting up on wobbly legs, and he just kicks his legs out from under him.  Valora with a spinning clothesline from behind sends Adam to his knees, and she hits a thrust kick to shove his upper body into the second rope.  Valora smiles, and steps on Pyre's back, driving his body into the second rope, and pulls up on the top rope for leverage.  Insanely smart for a woman, Jack.

Jack Gene - Kronin and Father Nathan both get to their feet, then look at each other, nod, and both grab Valora under each arm, lift her up for a modified crucifix powerbomb!  She impacts hard and rolls to a corner, with Kronin in pursuit.  Nathan, on the other hand, pulls Pyre to a vertical base, then attempts to shove him out of the ring.  Pyre's having nothing doing, as he's wrapping his body around the top rope.  Kronin's dropping knucks onto Valora's head, and Nathan, ol' Father Nathan, makes like a soccer player and boots Pyre right in the back, causing him to release the top rope and fall to the canvas!  

Bill Hughes - Wow! That was a nasty kick!  You can already see the welt growing on his back, Jack.  Heh.  I rhyme!  Kronin hits a fisherman suplex on valora, and she impacts hard on the canvas.  Kronin pulls her up to her feet, and puts her up for a vertical suplex, and he's just holding her up there!  Look at her mammaries!  They're starting to slip out of that top!  Jack!  I might finally get to see some areola!  Now she' kicking her legs, and they're jiggling!  Oh god!  I can't wait!  Just a bit farther!

Jack Gene - Keep it in your pants, Bill!  Valora shifts her weight and manages to swing her body as such to hit Kronin with a hard DDT!  They're both laid out, as Father Nathan hits the stroke on Pyre, to daze him on the mat a bit!  Nathan makes the sign of the cross then drags not one but both Valora and Kronin to the ropes and slumps each one onto the top rope...  Why is he...?

Bill Hughes - He's got a plan!  Can't you see it, Jack?  Of course not!  You're not as smart as I am!  He's pulling Pyre up, and he's going to whip him over the top rope, using Valora and Kronin's weight  to help lower the top rope and make it so much easier!  Here he goes!

Jack Gene - Pyre counters!  Father Nathan goes over!  He' hits the floor for sure this time!

Wayne Inkster - Father Nathan has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - Father Nathan has been eliminated, and Pyre starts lifting Valora over the top rope!  Could this be dissention in That Damn Awesome!?

["Safe 2 Say" by Fat Joe plays as Mo' Bad walks out with an evil look and determination on his face.]

Bill Hughes - Mo' Bad!  The Baddest Man on the Planet is here!  He's on a mission, and he pulled a great entrant number!  But look in the ring, Jack!  Pyre's now trying to eliminate Kronin, and while Valora looks pissed, she's got one arm locked around the top rope, and she's trying to assist him to eliminate Kronin!  Mo'Bad steps onto the apron, and lifts Valora up and over the top rope to put her back in the ring.  He then kicks Kronin in the head, causing his body to crumple and stay in the ring!  Pyre's trying to hang on, but Kronin went dead weight!  

Jack Gene - This could be bad times for Adam Pyre, as Mo' Bad uses the top rope to slingshot himself over and into a hurricarana on Adam Pyre!  Pyre rolls against the ropes and Mo' Bad grabs Valora for a bulldog, then jumps up to the top turnbuckle for a split-leg moonsault onto Valora Salinas!  Pyre with a running dropkick on Mo' Bad, and Mo rolls away.  Pyre's in hot pursuit, and he pulls him up, and connects with the Death Gambit, driving his knees into Mo' Bad's back!

Bill Hughes - I tell ya, Jack, Adam Pyre may have a lot of moves he names, but he knows how to execute each one perfectly, and Mo's learning all about that fact.  Pyre picks up Mo and Irish whips him across the ring, and Valora Salinas with a huge spear, dropping the six foot Mo' Bad!  Valora is on her knees after that impact, and Adam Pyre runs over with a front flip bulldog on Valora, putting her face first into the mat.  That Adam Pyre is always thinking, always plotting, always up to something.  Here, he's trying to win, and I don't blame him one bit.  We don't have many competitors left to go, and he's got a good shot at winning that title shot!

Jack Gene - Pyre turns around and Mo' Bad is on the top rope!  He hits a missile dropkick on Pyre, and Adam spins to the mat.  Mo spots Valora getting to her feet, and he applies a facelock and runs up the nearby turnbuckle and into the Sliced Bread #2!  I've never seen a six foot man do that!  I can't believe that just happened!

Bill Hughes - Well, it did.  It did, Jack.  Face it!  It did!  Mo picks up both Valora and Pyre and drags them both to the ropes.  A boot to Valora and he pulls Valora toward a corner, dropping her.  He hops to the top rope, and he's going for the Mo' Badder Blues on Valora, but NO!  Pyre out of nowhere catches Mo on his way back down!  Pyre shoves him up and back, connecting with an F-BOMB!  Mo is reeling!

Jack Gene - Adam Pyre is pulling it all out, and like whoa!  

Bill Hughes - He is, but Valora's getting to her feet, and WHAM!  Kronin with a running thrust kick to her face, rolling into the ropes, and draping herself on the top!

["Can Die No More" by Lake of Tear plays and Druscilla runs down, sliding into the ring, and exploding at Adam Pyre.]

Bill Hughes - Dru is exploding on Adam Pyre like... like...  boobies.

Jack Gene - Oh, you aren't even trying anymore, are you, Bill?  Jesus...

Bill Hughes - Whatever, Jackson Pollack.  Go paint something.  Dru and Pyre are trading the blows, while Kronin shoves Valora and sends her back enough for him to lock in a belly to belly suplex, sending her over his head to the corner.  Mo' Bad is trying to get to his feet and is shaking out his arm.  Adam Pyre did some good damage to it, from what I see.

Jack Gene - He's going to be sore tomorrow, that's for sure.  But Mo charges with both good arm and bad, and tries to topple both Druscilla and Adam Pyre over the top rope!  Pyre goes over, but he catches himself on the apron.  Dru, taking the shot from the damaged arm, doesn't.  Instead, she kicks Mo in the midsection, and gets him in a fireman's carry....  She's going for the Dark Sacrifice!  She tries to use the move to put Mo' Bad out, but Mo shifts his weight and lands on the apron!  Mo hits an eye gouge on Dru, causing her to back away, and Adam Pyre sweeps Mo's leg!  Mo falls backwards and to the floor!  He's out!

Wayne Inkster - Mo' Bad has been eliminated!

Bill Hughes - Pyre rolls back under the bottom rope, and Dru's right on top of him with boots.  Kronin hit a heel kick on Valora, and she turns her back to him.  Stupid move by her!  Kronin's like a suplex king!  Belly to back, and she's right back in the corner!  He puts Valora on the top turnbuckle and begins laying in forearms, and it's not looking well for her...  

Jack Gene - Bill, look over at Pyre and Dru!  She just laid him out with a powerslam near the corner, and she shouts something to Mo' Bad on the side of the ring, before turning her attention towards the other two.  Mo climbs the turnbuckle, with the referees on the outside yelling at him.

Bill Hughes - He's not listening, and he hits the MO BADDER BLUES!  That moonsault legdrop is just sick!  Mo apparently is pleased enough to leave the ring, with Pyre laying there in a heap.  And OH MY GOD!  KRONIN!  SUPERPLEX ON VALORA!  

Jack Gene - That was huge, but Kronin gets no rest, as Druscilla is climbing on top of him and laying in the rights to his head.

Bill Hughes - Druscilla, besides being hot, is no idiot.  This is her best shot right now, with Valora and Adam Pyre down on the mat, she's got an open shot to weaken Kronin, who's the only other one who could be mobile right now.  Really, it's a smart move on her part.  She pulls him up, and plants the Kiss of Death on him, and we all know what's coming up here! Druscilla lifts him up for the Dark Endings!

Jack Gene - No!  Out of nowhere, Pyre with a leg chop from behind, causing Dru to lose her balance, and Kronin escapes!  Pyre applies an inverted facelock and then an inverted DDT on Dru, taking her down.  Kronin pulls Dru up and sends her to the ropes.  He leaps up for a dropkick, but she catches the ropes.  Pyre on the other hand,pulls him quickly up and lifts him up, connecting with a muscle buster!  Damn, that's gotta hurt!

[“The Lumberjack” by Jackyl echoes through the arena.]

Bill Hughes - Lumberjack!  He's here!  Holy hell, he's here!

Jack Gene - While he's a great competitor, why are you so excited to see him?

Bill Hughes - Brotha owes me twelve bucks.  Lumberjack slides in, and immediately goes to work on Dru, sending her to the ropes.  As he does so, Pyre comes in with the B!  AND!  E!, sending Lumberjack out!  That isn't the fastest elimination we've had, but close to!

Wayne Inkster - Lumberjack has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - Druscilla rebounding off the ropes, heads toward Pyre, but he drops, pulling down on the top rope, sending Druscilla out on top of the Lumberjack!

Wayne Inkster - Druscilla has been eliminated!
 
Bill Hughes - Well, that again leaves us with three!  Numbers seven, eleven, and fourteen -- Kronin, Valora, and Adam, and Pyre's the only one on his feet right now!  Immediatey, he goes after Kronin, pulling him up and he looks to throw Super K out, but Kronin swings around, applies a facelock then hits a snap suplex on Pyre, and well, he looks dazed.  Kronin looks at Valora, who's sitting in the corner, trying to regain some energy, then picks up Pyre in a fireman's carry.  What's he going for here, Jack?
 
Jack Gene - I'm not sure, but OH!  Death Valley Driver on Adam Pyre!  Pyre's writhing!  That surely did some damage!  Kronin turns, and Valora's charging him, and Kronin with a back body drop!  He expected the attack!
 
Bill Hughes - Valora landed on her feet, and SUPERKICK!  She hit Kronin straight clear in the jaw, and he's stunned!  Valora grabs hold of him and tosses him over the top rope, and somehow -- SOME HOW! -- He managed to grip that top rope, and he's dangling!  I tell ya, I'm surprised that the top rope hasn't broken with all the weight that's been on it.
 
Jack Gene - All of a sudden, Pyre's up, he leaps up and plants his knees in Valora's back, pulling backwards for a backstabber, and SHE'S up, over and dangling!  Both Kronin and Valora look at each other and both flip themselves back over the top rope, utilizing the upper body strength, and once they're in, both breathe a sigh of relief...
 
Bill Hughes - Pyre's going to double clothesline them both out!  What a geniu--  NO!  NO!  Both Kronin and Valora pull down on the top rope, and Pyre goes over!
 
Wayne Inkster - Adam Pyre has been eliminated!
 
Jack Gene - There's just two left, and they're heated rivals! 
 
Bill Hughes - Not so fast, the countdown has began again, as both of them circle each other!

["Our Truth" by Lacuna Coil plays and Wone runs down to the ring.]
 
Bill Hughes - WONE!  What a draw!  A former Great Lakes champion with a damn good draw for the All-In Challenge!  He slides in, clotheslining both Valora and Kronin to the mat!  He bounces off the ropes then hits a double dropkick right to their chests, then he pulls Valora to her feet, and irish whips her to the ropes.  Upon her return, he lifts her up for a Samoan drop, then kicks a now standing Kronin in the midsection. 
 
Jack Gene - It's not a good position for Kronin or the Great Lakes Champion, Valora Salinas, as Wone lifts Kronin up for a gutwrench powerbomb, right top the mat.  The crowd pops, and Bill, it's easy to understand why.  Wone was last week's Fighter of the Week, and you can see why.  He's running on all cylinders.

Bill Hughes - With Valora still down, Wone jumps on the second rope and with an asai moonsault, slams into Valora.  For both of Wone's competitors, there's a large hill to climb.  Wone's just that damn good!  He pulls Valora to her feet and tries to toss her over the top rope, but she gets her leg hooked on the bottom rope, and there's no way she's going over.  Instead, Wone delivers a knee to her back, then turns his attention to Kronin with a leaping knee to his scalp.

Jack Gene - It's quite a knee, as it's busted him right open!  He's bleeding in the ring, and Wone's like a hungry shark, just circling, waiting for Kronin to get to his feet...  As he does, Wone bends him over and hooks a vertibreaker, laying out the, as you called him, Super K.  Valora, however, jumps onto the middle rope and uses it to propel her for a sunset flip with such force, Wone rolls back to a vertical base just in time for a quick hurricarana from the Great Lakes Champion!  How did she manage that one, Bill?  He wasn't standing fully!

Bill Hughes - Especially with those cans!  But she swung wide, and he went for the ride between those luscious thighs!

Jack Gene - He sure did, Bill...  Valora gets over to him and applies a side headlock, and Kronin is in an opposite corner, using the ringposts to get to his feet.  Wone elbows out of the headlock, not allowing Valora to have the control she wants, and he sends her towards Kronin.

Bill Hughes - I'd let her control whatever she wanted, Jack.  Such a boombastic hottie, I swear.  Kronin hits a clothesline to take down the two-time Great Lakes Champion, and he runs at Valora.  She lifts up her leg for a big boot, but Kronin slides underneath, then pops back up before she can spin around.  He hits an atomic drop on her tailbone, and HEY!  THAT COULD HAVE DAMAGED HER LADY POCKET, DOUCHE!

Jack Gene - "Lady pocket?"

Bill Hughes - What?  It's a phrase.

Jack Gene - *sigh*  Anyway....  Kronin spins her around and hooks a vertical suplex, but as she reaches the vertical point, he drops her for a DDT, and she's on the mat spread eagle.... Oh, god, I can't believe I just said that.

Bill Hughes - You sure did!

Jack Gene - I have to stop lunching with you and AWS Man....

Bill Hughes - He's a bitch anyway, and you aren't to hot yourself...  At any rate, she's out on the mat, and as Kronin gets to his feet, Wone is right there with a few rights and a European uppercut to spin Kronin around.  Wone grabs Kronin's face from behind and drops down, pulling his back and head into the mat.

Jack Gene - The clock is counting down!  The final competitor!

[The Bloodhound Gang's "Three point One Four" plays as AWS Man runs down to the ring, but doesn't slide in.]

Jack Gene - AWS Man (also known as Bill) is the final entrant, but he's not sliding into the ring... Instead he's running around the ring?

Bill Hughes -He's insane, what do you expect?  Hey, what's he...  HEY!

Jack Gene - AWS Man just pulled Bill Hughes out of his seat and into the ring!  AWS Man slides in and begins pummeling him in the corner!  I can't believe it!  Bill crumples, and he's in the fetal position in the corner.  Wone steps over and spins AWS Man around, and then begins punching him in the head!  These two are both multi-time Great Lakes champions, and it's time for a battle of the titans!  They're trading blows in the center of the ring, and Kronin gets to his feet.  He runs and spears AWS Man, leaving Wone a bit bewildered.  He looks over and sees Valora coming to, and he assists her with some force to the ropes.

[Jack Gene looks around.]

Jack Gene - Wayne!  Sit in for Bill!

[Wayne Inkster does so..]

Wayne Inkster - Hey Jack.  Hey folks. 

Jack Gene - Wayne, we're goin gto wing this due to decent developments....

Wayne Inkster - Sure thing, Jack.

Jack Gene - Wone's trying to eliminate Valora, while Kronin just hit a standing dropkick into AWS Man's chest, sending him back to a corner.  Kronin follows it up with a European uppercut which hooks into a 3/4 facelock, and he pops AWS Man into a stunner!  AWS Man is reeling!  On the other side of the ring, Valora's fighting back with Wone.  She goes for a clothesline, which he ducks, then lifts her up and hits the Fall From Grace!  The Fall From Grace reverse DVD on Valora!

Wayne Inkster - I can't believe that just happened!  What timing by Wone!

Jack Gene - Kronin with a snapmare on AWS Man, and a punt to the back his head to knock him face first to the mat.  Kronin charges, but Wone clotheslines him to the mat.  AWS Man is getting to his feet, and Wone charges him with a high knee into the corner, and immediately trying to remove AWS Man's mask!  

Wayne Inkster - What a tactic!

Jack Gene - They struggle in the corner, and Kronin gets to his feet before Valora can fully recover from the Fall from Grace, and instead of trying to eliminate her, he sends her to Wone and AWS Man via Irish whip!  First class post rate!  Kronin then charges in with a spear to all three of them!  Huge impact!  Valora drops to the mat, AWS Man crumples, and Wone stumbles out of the corner.  Kronin plants a knee into Wone's midsection then lifts him up for a powerbomb, and makes a running throw!  Wone is up over the top rope and right to the floor!

Wayne Inkster - (on the house mic) Wone has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - Thanks Wayne.

Wayne Inkster - Don't mention it.

Jack Gene - Kronin with a fist pump, then he turns, and AWS Man goes for the spear!  NO!  Kronin sidesteps and hits a superkick to AWS Man's jaw, and he's dizzy!  

Wayne Inkster - OH MY GOD!

Jack Gene - While AWS Man was dazed, Bill Hughes got up and grabbed AWS Man, tossing him over the top rope to the floor!

Wayne Inkster - (on the house mic) AWS Man has been eliminated!

Jack Gene - That leaves two in the ring, as Bill Hughes just leaped over the top rope to the apron, then to the floor.  I can't believe it, Wayne.  Bill Hughes eliminated AWS Man (also known as Bill)!  That's one for the record books!

Wayne Inkster - Yes it is, but I think I'm done here.

Bill Hughes - Wayne!  Get out of my seat!

Wayne Inkster - Sure thing.

Jack Gene - Welcome back, Bill.

Bill Hughes - Thanks.  You see that? 

Jack Gene - Sure did.  Nice work!  But now, the story is between two of WMW's top performers week in and week out, and I don't mean you and I, Bill.  Valora Salinas and Kronin.  

Bill Hughes - Kronin's been a thorn in the side of Valora for a while now, and well, he's going to get what's coming to him.  

Jack Gene - My money's on Kronin.

Bill Hughes - Mine's on the champ.  And here we go!  They're trading blows in the middle of the ring.  Lefts and rights are flying,, then Kronin sends Valora to the ropes.  She rebounds, and he goes for a boot, but she slides under this time, and hooks an inverted DDT, but Kronin rolls to the inside, and shoves Valora back to the ropes.  She rebounds and tries a flying crossbody, but Kronin catches her, and spins her lower half around for a Black Hole Slam!

Jack Gene - Kronin's making some needed moves, but he's not trying to pin in this match -- she needs to go up and over the side, and that's what he's trying to do now!  He's got her and he's trying, but Valora's got the elbow strikes going, and to his already wounded head!  there's blood flying everywhere, and he's bleeding like a stuck pig!

Bill Hughes - What if you get the pig unstuck?

Jack Gene - What?

Bill Hughes - You know, unstick it....  Never mind.  

Jack Gene - Valora's got him backing off, and a standing dropkick sends him further backwards against the ropes.  Kronin charges back forward, the wear showing on him, but Valora hits Trouble in Paradise, South Central style, and Kronin's to the mat!  Valora pumps her fist in the air, and she then... climbs the turnbuckle?!?  Doesn't she know she needs to put him over the top rope?  That's dangerous!

Bill Hughes - it's the exclamation point here, Jack!  You don't know!  You've never been in the ring!

Jack Gene - Didn't we tag together a year or two ago?

Bill Hughes - And you were a lousy partner.  Kronin's back to his feet, and he turns as Valora leaps for a hurricanrana!  NO!

Jack Gene - Kronin counters, grabbing her around her waist, and he signals for it!

Bill Hughes  and Jack Gene - DEATH!  BY!  METAL!

Bill Hughes - I can't believe he just hit Death by Metal!  The Canadian Destroyer, for the third time in the All-In!!!  He peels Valora off the canvas, and no!  NO!  NO!

Jack Gene - Kronin just tossed Valora over the top rope to the floor!

[DING!  DING!  DING!]

Wayne Inkster - The winner of the 2010 All-In Challenge.... KRONIN!

["Freya" by The Sword plays and the crowd pops.]

Jack Gene - My god... I can't believe it, Bill can't believe it, and Valora certainly can't believe it, but it happened!  Kronin bested the Great Lakes Champion to win the All-In Challenge!  The crowd is electric for the Chicago, Illinois native!

Bill Hughes - I can't believe he eliminated Valora. This is... this is just unreal.

[Kronin celebrates in the center of the ring as the crowd is on their feet. "Kronin! Kronin! Kronin!" is chanted over and over again as Kronin looks around the arena. The referee grabs his arm and raises it as they turn around for the entire arena to see. The camera focuses in on him as the scene fades.]
