Revelations by Audioslave begins to play as the show starts off with a video footage detailing historic events over the Monday Night Brawls twelve year history. Images of previous EWC Champions are shown, starting with the very first Champion Black Ninja, then moving onto Big Mac and Steve Bennett. Sped up footage then shows a special montage of Memphis Reigns, Shadow Man, Hirsh Valentine, Jesse Nunez, Hurricane Jeff, Moses Lake, James Chambers, BDC, Jay Cee, Stray, Gladiator and then The Rev all with the World Championship.

The opening pyros hit and here we go.

The energy in the Hartwall Arena is electrifying. Spotlights circle around the arena as the 19,000 fans in the venue are shown in a wide angle shot. The camera then pans out showing a full scale view of the jam packed arena

A chant begins of

MNB
MNB

MNB

Aiello: It is great to be here in Helsinki, Finland. The fans are incredible here.

Piven: You say that about everywhere we go. These people are boorish and loud, just your type of people. I can’t wait til we get out of this god forsaken place.

Aiello: Well, I would say you’re an asshole but everyone knows that already. *Listens to his headset* I have just received word that there is a prerecorded message coming in from the local pub by one Kyle Deathlocke.

*********

Kyle smiled as he sat at the bar, sipping on a beer before looking up at the camera.

Kyle: Well, well, well, if it isn’t the infamous EWC. How is everyone hanging there at the arena? I am sure that everyone is wondering why I would be drinking less than 12 hours before my match with BDC. The fact of the matter is that it is none of your damn business whether or not I drink before my match.

He smiles as he orders a shot of vodka. He chases the shot with a beer as he continues on.

Kyle: The reason for this message is that next week when we travel to the glorious city of Paris, France, I will be cashing in my Rage in the Cage title shot against the backwards ass, goody two shoe champion that got lucky in his match at Stranglemania. I am talking about that no talent wannabe champ known as Captain Insanity. *He shoots back another shot of Vodka.* Insanity, you have something that I want and in Paris I plan on taking the international title from your cold dead hands. See the International title needs someone that will act like a champion is suppose to act and that is as if no one else is good enough to be in the same ring as them. You are nothing more than a paper champion and a bad one at that. I hope that you enjoy your last week as champion because once I take that title from you, you will never get it back again.

********

Aiello: Strong words coming from Kyle Deathlocke. The question is: will Captain Insanity accept the challenge? I think……

Piven: No one cares what you think. Word is that there is a commotion going on backstage. Let’s see if we can get a camera crew back there.

********

A camera crew makes it to the area where they found a very irate Captain Insanity being held back by security. Outlaw steps out of his office to see Insanity foaming at the mouth to get away from the security.

Outlaw: What the hell is your problem, Insanity?

Insanity: Did you hear what that moron said from the pub? He is a disgrace to the company. I am going to go teach that asshole what it means to be champ.

Outlaw: You better cool your heels. You will not go looking for him tonight. You are in the Main Event tonight and that is what you should be concerned with right now. Now as for his challenge, I am assuming that you will be accepting it?

Insanity: Yes, I will be accepting the challenge. He will learn that calling me out is the worst thing that you can do.

Outlaw: Fine, you will get your chance next week in the Main Event of the Rampage hour. Just make sure that you make good on your claim.

Insanity relaxes a little as he turns and walks back towards his locker room. Outlaw smiled at the anger that was radiating from Insanity. He turned to the security was standing there. Keep an eye on Insanity. He seems like a loose cannon right now. He chuckled as he went back into his office.

********

Aiello: Wow, Insanity seems very high strung right now. I would hate to be Deathlocke next week.

Piven: I think that is exactly what Deathlocke wants. Make Insanity live up to his name and he will make a mistake that Deathlocke will capitalize on and win the Championship.

TRIPLE THREAT MATCH
^{Ianzky De Tornado vs Jamie Moorefield vs Kanon}
(VS) (VS)

The opening match is a triple threat match set for one fall and have a 20 minute time limit. Introducing first……

“The Angle" begins to play and the arena lights randomly flash in a strobe effect highlighting the stage. As the beat kicks in the lights strobe effect wears off and just alternate between different colors. Fog fills on the stage and Kanon comes from the back and steps on stage. Once the fog clears he has his back turned to the crowd. He throws one hand up and spins around and stands there as he rubs his wrist together. He begins to head down the ramp with a slow steady pace.

Making his way to the ring, from Montreal, Quebec, Canada and weighing in at two hundred, forty-four pounds, he is “The Grim Reaper" KANON!

Kanon hops onto the ring apron and rubs his right hand across his shades with a smirk on his face. He steps into the ring and walks to the center of the ring and places his hands on his hips looking around. He walks to one of the corner turnbuckles and stands up straight. He brings his hand across his shades once more and raises his arm into the air. "The Angle" begins to fade as Kanon steps down and walks to the far side of the ring.

Introducing next, his opponent……

After the first line of the song, he will come out from the smoke effects, and walk slowly at the top ramp, then he will climb the ring post, points to the audience, and then he'll do his trade mark back flip on ring posts.

……weighing in at 180 lbs, he hails from Manila, Philippines. He is the ‘Tropical Tornado’, Ianzky De Tornado.

The ref checks the wrestlers before calling for the bell. Both men square off in the center of the ring in a test of strength.

Aiello: Is it just me or are we missing someone from this match?

Piven: The guy probably hyperventilated from the shook of actually making it onto the show.

Tornado won the test of strength with a boot to Kanon’s gut. Kanon doubled over as Tornado smiled at the damage that he plan to do. Tornado picked up Kanon before slamming him back to the mat with a thunderous powerbomb. Not waiting for Kanon to get his bearing, Tornado went for a half nelson slam, only to have it reversed into a reverse STO. Kanon picked up Tornado and landed a rolling snapmare. Kanon went for the cover.

1……



2……



Tornado kicks out of the pin, barely. Kanon groaned as he glared at Tornado before running in for a spear. Tornado saw this coming and stepped out of the way of the move just in time. Kanon grimaces as he steps back from the ring post, holding his shoulder.

Aiello: Looks like Kanon took a little too long on executing the move and paid the price for it.

Piven: I bet that he will feel that in the morning.

Tornado started to pinpoint the injured shoulder of Kanon with arm yanks and knee drops to the arm. Kanon growls as he tries to hide the pain that he was experiences at the moment. Tornado picked up Kanon and irishwhipped him into the ring before hitting a back body drop on him. Tornado hit a leg drop on Kanon before climbing the ropes.

Aiello: Looks like Tornado is looking for the Tornadossault.

Tornado attempted his finisher only to be met with an empty mat as Kanon had rolled out of the way in time. Kanon slowly gets to his feet, shaking his arm to clear the throbbing that was present before walking over to Tornado. Kanon grinned as he bounced of the ropes and hit Tornado in the back with a double knee drop. Kanon locked in a sleeper hold, applying a knee to the back of Tornado so as to put more pressure on the lower back. Tornado gritted his teeth as he shook his head at the ref’s continued questioning of whether he wanted to give up or not.

Piven: Kanon has Tornado right where he wants him. Tornado should just give up and call it quits.

Tornado struggled against the hold and gets his hand on the ropes. Ref calls for Kanon to release the hold before starting the count.


1……



2……



3……


Kanon stretches back on the hold as the count continues.



4……




5…….

Kanon releases the hold as the ref hits five, allowing the match to continue. The toll that the hold had on Tornado was evident in the way that Tornado got to his feet. His back was in pain and Kanon targeted that with a double axe handle to the middle of the back. Kanon knocked Tornado down to the mat before hitting Tornado with his finisher, ‘Hell Bound’. The pin was academic after that.

The winner of this match is……‘The Grim Reaper’ Kanon.

That was a good match and it was an incredible victory for Kanon. I doubt that Tornado is going to let this match go unwarranted. Let’s pause for a quick commercial break.

*****

The camera pans the hallway backstage after the match almost as if it is looking for something. Wrestlers are seen chatting along the sides of the hall as a loud crash rings out of the far end of the hall. As the cameraperson hurries to see what the commotion is, many people are running the opposite way trying to get out of danger. Loud yelling could be heard from behind a closed door marked ‘Outlaw-General Manager’. The cameraperson, ignoring people’s warnings about self preservation, knocked on the door which earned a loud “Come in.” The cameraperson opened the door as people wished them luck and said a prayer for them.

Outlaw was found sitting behind his desk, talking very angrily with someone on the phone. As the cameraperson carefully stepped into the room, they were forced to step over several shards of broken glass from what looked like the water pitcher and some glasses. Once in the room, the camera caught a glimpse of the tray that said pitcher and glasses were on earlier before coming to rest looking at a very irate Outlaw.

“YOU HAVE GOT TO BE FUCKING KIDDING ME.”

…………...


I DON’T CARE IF HIS PUSSY HURTS…..

…………...


I SENT HIM TO YOU SO THAT HE WOULD BE BACK IN A WEEK OR TWO TO WRESTLE AGAIN.

…………...


I FIND NOTHING FUNNY ABOUT THIS.

…………...


FINE, WHNE CAN I EXPECT HIM BACK IN FIGHTIN SHAPE?

…………...


YOU NEED TO QUIT LAUGHING BEFORE I WRING YOUR LITTLE NECK.


…………...


WHAT DO YOU MEAN, THERE IS NO TELLING WHEN HE WILL RETURN?

…………...


YES, I KNOW WHAT A TORN ROTATOR CUFF IS. I HAVE HAD A FEW MYSELF.


…………...


WHATEVER, I WILL CHECK BACK IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND I EXPECT TO HEAR BETTER NEWS.


Outlaw slams the phone down, muttering to himself. That ungrateful, miserable, little worm. I will make him pay for….. He looked up and noticed, probably for the first time, the camera that was in the room.

“WHAT THE HELL DO YOU WANT?

The cameraperson looked nervously at Outlaw as they tried to formulate an answer. I was sent here to get an update on Pence Weatherlight.

Outlaw chuckled as he looked at the cameraperson. “What did you do to piss your boss off this much? I don’t think there is a cameraperson on the roster that would volunteer for that job.

The cameraperson nervously didn’t make eye contact with Outlaw. I sort of screwed the boss’s supervisor’s daughter and was ratted out by the guy that was supposed to have the assignment.

Outlaw shook his head as he looked at the man before him.

I have to say that you have just made my day a little better by telling me that. And because of that I will not contemplate what organ I will have taken out of you for disturbing me. Mr. Weatherlight suffered a torn rotator cuff last week as a result of his tag team match with Kandi vs. CBK and Eddie Dangerously. As the extent of his injury is unknown, he will not be available to wrestle until further notice. I wish for his speedy recovery and he will be welcomed back to EWC when he is completely healed.

Outlaw started looking over the paperwork that was on his desk for a moment before looking up to see that the camerawoman was still in the room.

Don’t make me reconsider the whole ‘not ripping an organ out of you’. You are dismissed.

The camerawoman ran out of the office closing the door behind her as Outlaw shook his head and went back to his paperwork.

HARDCORE MATCH
^{William Rast vs Nathan Harter}
(VS)
^{Special Guest Commentator: Shadow Man}

The lights in the arena slowly begin to dim as everyone in the arena quickly get's to their feet and begin to make some noise. "Invincible" by OK Go then begins to play over the Sound System as three strobe lights begin to pulse in the entrance way, fog then begins to rise from below the stage in front of the entrance.

The X-Treme Tron lights up counting down from 9 all the way to 1. It seems as though every single person is on there feet counting down the numbers. Once it gets to 0 large letters flash “IT'S SHOWTIME”.

An enormous uproar of cheers now blends out the blasting of "Invincible"! A few moments later Shadow Man walks from behind the wall of Fog onto the stage. He stands their for a few seconds with a smirk on his face and begins to point to the fans who are screaming the loudest.

Shadow then looks towards the camera with a cocky yet confident look on his face as he begins to walk down the ramp and towards the ring. On the way he makes silly faces into the camera. Shadow walks up to the apron and then makes a right. He continues on his path until he gets to the commentator’s table. He is greeted as he puts on a headset and says hello to all of his fans. He sits down as he awaits the arrival of the wrestlers.

Piven: That’s right fans! We are joined at ringside by our one and only Shadow Man!

Shadow Man: Well, I always like to take time out for my fans. And on the plus side, I don’t have to hop into the ring tonight, and instead get to watch two of our finest face off.

“Abyss” by Circus Maximum Finishers as Nathan Harter appears from the backstage. Harter comes out to a crowd of fan cheering him as he walks to the ring.

Announcer: Coming to the ring, from Baltimore, Maryland, NATHAN “THE VIPER” HARTER

Harter stares down at the ground and then starts to run in place. He then gets into the ring and waits quietly for his opponent.

The lights flicker while the sounds of police sirens are heard. Dumb it Down begins to play over the PA System and out comes William Rast handcuffed and accompanied by a Officer of the law.

Announcer: Coming to the ring, from Memphis, Tennessee, “REAL THING” WILLIAM RAST!

William winks at all the ladies as he makes his way to the ring. He is then un cuffed and slides into the ring, takes off his jacket and waits for the bell to ring.

The bell rings as the match goes under way. Harter quickly starts out the match by rushing towards Rast and catching him off guard with a dropkick. The dropkick rocks Rast into the nearest corner. Harter quickly pops to his feet, and goes on the offensive.

Piven: Explosive start for the newcomer.

Aiello: Indeed! This Harter kid taking it to Rast from the beginning!

He quickly begins to repeatedly hit Rast in the corner until he falls unto his bottom, leaning against the corner in a seated position. Harter quickly grabs the both of the legs of Rast. He then pulls the leg, side steps, and lands into a uranage backbreaker. Keeping Rast on his feet, Harter swiftly sends him into the ropes with an Irish whip. However, on the rebound, Rast catches Harter off guard with a Lou Thesz Press with multiple punches following.

Shadow: Rast caught Nathan off guard with that one.

Rast quickly hops off of Harter and pulls him to his feet. He then tries to pull off Faith. Harter, not nearly weakened for such a move, throws Rast off him once he grabs Harter in the three-quarter facelock. Rast bounces off the ropes from the counter. He then catches Harter with a flying corkscrew crossbody. He then stands and climbs the turnbuckle, pandering to the crowd.

Aiello: You see? This is stupid! Rast is wasting valuable time here!

Shadow Man: That’s right. You would think Rast would know that with a man like Harter, you got to stay on him and not let up.

Rast then climbs down and returns to Harter. Harter, who received time to recuperate, is ready for the attack. Rast grabs Harter’s head and put it in between his legs. The fans start to cheer because they know that Rast is looking for the piledriver. Rast takes a second and signals to the crowd.

Piven: Again! Again Rast is wasting time, giving the crowd a show outside of the match.

A wave of shock overcomes Rast’s face as Harter lifts him up by his legs. Harter doesn’t take but a split second to snap off a wicked double leg slam. He goes for the cover.

1…

2…

Kick-out!

Shadow Man: Kick-out by Rast. This pin wouldn’t have happened if Rast would have just kept on Harter.

With the close kick-out on the pin, Harter shows his frustrations. After arguing with the referee for a minute, he goes back to Rast. He brings him to his feet and slaps in the Tazmission. After holding it and applying pressure for about a minute, Rast attempts to get the crowd to get behind him. The fans slowly begin to clap. The clapping builds as Rast gains momentum to try and fight the submission. Just as it seems as though Rast will escape the hold, Harter moves the arm around his throat to his stomach, lifts him up, and drops him into a half nelson backbreaker. The crowd pops as they did not see the move coming. Harter nods to the crowd as they chant his name. He goes for a pinfall.

1…

2…

NO! Kick-out at 2.9 seconds!

Aiello: What a close pin!

Harter’s face tells the story. He is stunned by the resiliency of William Rast. He takes a moment to breathe. In this time, Rast also able to catch a moment of rest. The referee begins the double count.

1…

2…

3…

4…

5…

At five, Harter stand up. The referee point to Harter as he stands, signaling the end of the double count. At the time of Harter getting to his feet, Rast stands up sprinting, running towards the ropes. He bounces off the ropes and hits a clothesline. He continues bouncing as he again clotheslines Harter, who had just stood up from the other clothesline. One more clothesline completes the trio. Without stall, Rast climbs the nearest turnbuckle and waits for Harter to rise. As he gets to his feet, Rast jumps off and goes for a missile dropkick. Harter sees the move coming and dodges the kick. As this happens, Rast falls hard from the attempt and his head bounces violently off the mat. The crowd lets off a gasp of shock and concern.

Shadow Man: OH! That was just gross.

Piven: I hope Rast is ok.

Harter also sees this as an opportunity to capitalize on the possibly injured Rast. A smile explodes on his face. He quickly picks up Rast. Rast is completely knocked out. You can tell by the way Harter picks him up as if lifting dead weight. Harter then swiftly wraps his arms around the stomach of Rast. He then lifts him up and drops him into a Gutwrench Driver.

Aiello: BLINDFOLDS ASIDE! There it is!

Piven: What a brutal move!

Nathan then spins Rast around and goes for the pin.

1…

2…

3!!!

The bell rings as “Abyss” by Circus Maximum Finishers hits the PA system. Harter looks up at the crowd as he raises his hand in victory. The fans, still stunned silent from Rast taking the big fall, are still clapping and showing support for Harter. Nathan rolls to the outside and walks up to Shadow Man. Shadow stands up and takes off the headset. Nathan looks blankly at Shadow. He extends his hand to Shadow Man, and Shadow accepts it. As they shake hands, the fans pop. Shadow then lifts Harter’s arm in a signal of victory. As this is all happening, Rast is being put on a stretcher and is taken to the back to be checked out. He seems to be coherent, but is still unaware to what has happened.

Aiello: Welcome back, fans. We have just received word that the Deathlocke/BDC match was cancelled after it was reported that they were both arrested for public intoxication.

Piven: Deathlocke, I am not surprised by considering how much he was drinking in the promo at the start of the show but BDC I figured would have been in the arena waiting for the match. With the cancellation of the last match, that will end the time for our hour. Please stay tuned for the inferior hour Rampage.

[MNB]

HOUR TWO
- RAMPAGE -

“The Second Coming” by Juelz Santana begins to play over the PA system. The fans look a little confused. The music plays loudly and spotlights flash around the stadium.


“They say a family that plays together, stays together.
And one that walks apart just falls apart.
So, together we stand, divided we fall.
United, we form Voltron and take on all. Let's move.
Yes, the birds left the nest.
I'm all grown up I gotta fly with the rest.
Best of the best is what we strive to be. Yeah.
A legacy is what we trying to leave.
Ya dig?”


Out from behind the curtain come Cannonball-Kid and Shane Gillum. The pair strut down to the as boos reign out from the crowd. Shane is wearing a brand new expensive black and white suit, some dress shoes that squeak as he walks, and an expensive Rolex shows off his rest. Kid accompanies him wearing wrestling trunks, a muscle shirt, and some new Air Force Ones.


Now say goodbye to the past.
The future is here at last.
The second coming.
The new beginning.
The truth is speaking.
You should listen.
So glorious.
Victorious.
We take what we want we born warriors.
So glorious,
Victorious.
We take what we want we born warriors.
If you fall, get up and try it again.
If you drop, get up and try it again.
If you fall, get up and try it again.
If you drop, get up and try it again.


Shane Gillum and Kid slide into the ring. Shane grabs the microphone from the ring announcer, and Kid chases him out of the ring. The announcer hi-tails it out of the ring. Before Shane can get the microphone to his mouth, boos get louder and louder.


[Shane Gillum]. “Wow, I come out here to give you words straight from the mouth of a wrestling legend, and THIS is the thanks I get? Maybe I should think twice about showing up for this European shows! Haha. You are all probably asking yourselves…”Isn’t that the guy that owned the HWA? What the hell is he doing here? I will be glad to tell you.


In case any of you half-breeds didn’t know, the man standing next to me, Curtis Wayne, is actually one of the best superstars to cross the HWA, or any wrestling promotion for that matter. I am here for one reason, and one reason only. To make damn sure that you all understand the capabilities of this man. I warn you, he is not a 10 time champion for no reason. I don’t know if any of you Finnish people have ever seen a true champion before, because obviously no Finland teams are good. Well, I give you the opportunity tonight to see a true champion in action. None of that Kid “Weed” or Mrs. Strange bullshit the fans love to eat up. And guess what folks? This guy standing next to me doesn’t hear voices either!!!


From this point forward, seeing as how all of the other HWA members have fallen apart one way or another, I will be accompanying Kid in every single match. Don’t like me? Guess what? I don’t give a fuck!!


I hope you all have a true passion for ass kickings, and total domination. Because that is what is going on before your eyes. You can either continue to deny, and let him win every single match, or you can actually believe that there is no stopping this “freakish, half-monster”.


I would like everyone to give an applause for the future EWC Hall of Famer…Cannonball-Kid!!"


The fans boos continue to reign out from the entire stadium. Trash and half drank beers go flying into the ring. The two attempt to dodge flying trash as the crowds boos get louder by the second. Shane Gillum drops the microphone and Shane and Kid exit the ring together, taunting to the crowd, soaking up the boos. “The Second Coming” plays over the PA system once again, drowning out any remaining boos, as the two exit the stage and head backstage.

(VS)

Stroup: Introducing first. Originally from Amsterdam, Netherlands but now residing in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Weighing in at two hundred and thirty two pounds. He is the EWC HARDCORE CHAMPION. The man with the plan....KID CANNABIS!

Krypotnite by By Big Boi and the Purple Ribbon All Stars blares all over the PA system. Kid Cannabis emerges from the back stage with the Hardcore Title draped over his shoulder. Cannabis stands at the top of the ramp and holds the Hardcore Championship in the air over his head as the crowd roars. Cannabis makes his way down the ramp and rolls under the bottom rope. Once back on his feet, Cannabis climbs the closest turnbuckle and holds the Hardcore Championship in the air.

Stroup: And his opponent. Hailing from Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Weighing in at two hundred and fifty pounds. He is the EWC INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION. He is... CAPTAIN INSANITY!

The lights dim a little as his starts to play. Captain Insanity steps out from behind the curtain. He pauses briefly, looking down at the ring and his opponent(s) before casually walking to the ring, never taking his eyes off of Kid Cannabis. Insanity slides into the ring and quickly gets to his feet.

Both men square off in the middle of the ring, neither intimidated by the other. A sly smile creeps across Cannabis's lips before he sucker punches Insnaity in the jaw. A brawl breaks out between the two men. Insanity quickly gains the advantage as he pummels Cannabis with lefts and rights. Insanity forces Cannabis back into the turnbuckle, but Cannabis ducks under the top rope, forcing the referee to push Insanity back with his assault. As Cannabis comes back towards Insanity, Cannabis throws a wild haymaker and slightly connects and temporarily dazing Insanity. Cannabis quickly follows this up with a dropkick to the jaw of Insanity. As Insanity lies on the mat, Cannabis stomps away at the extremities of Insanity. Cannabis decides to slow down the pace of the match by locking in a half Boston Crab. Insanity reaches out for the bottom rope, but Cannabis readjusts himself and pulls Insanity back towards the middle of the ring. Insanity refuses to submit and manages to kick Cannabis off of him. Insanity slowly makes it to his feet as Cannabis comes charging at him. Insanity catches Cannabis in mid air as Cannabis attempts a cross body block. Insanity takes two steps forward before tossing Cannabsi behind him like a rag doll. The bounce from the impact is enough for Cannabis to roll out of the ring to the outside.

Arquette: What power.

Cannabis walks around the outside of the ring as Insanity stalks him from the inside of the ring. Cannabis tries to enter the ring, but Insanity quickly cuts him off and stomps on his fingers. Finally Cananbis rolls into the ring, but Insanity quickly stomps on him. Insanity grabs Cannabis by the head and yanks him to his feet. Insanity grabs Cannabis by the throat and throws him into the nearby crner. Insanity rushes over and hits an Avalanche Splash followed by a series of lefts and rights. Insanity lifts Cannabis to the top turnbuckle and hooks in a Superplex, sending Cannabis crashing down to the mat with a loud thud. Insanity covers Cannabis.

Referee: 1..2..

Cannabis kicks out at two. Insanity slowly begins to rise to his feet and argue with the referee. Cannabis takes advantage of this and pushes Insanity into the referee, knocking him down and out. Cannabis quickly exits the ring and looks under the apron for a weapon as Insanity looks round, bewildered at what just happened. Insanity finally sees Cannabis slide back into the ring with a steel chair. Cannabis goes to swing the chair, but Insanity punches the hair and knocks it out of Cannabis's hands. Insanity punches Cannabis in the head and than picks the chair up off of ground. Insanity cracks the chair over the head of Cannabis and instantly the chair dents from the skull of Cannabis. Cannabis slumps to the mat as Insanity throws the chair out of the ring. Insanity exits the ring and pulls one monitor out of the announcer's table. Insanity turns and notices Cannabis slowly sturring. Insanity rolls back in the ring and goes back on the attack. Instead of punishing Cannabis with submission holds, Insanity picks Cannabis up in the air and tosses him out of the ring towards the announcer's table. Cannabis makes it to his feet when he suddenly notices Insanity running from the far side of the ring. Insanity jumps over the top rope and sails perfectly as Cannabis watches on. Cannabis moves at the right moment and Insanity crashes into the announcer's table, whacking his own head off of the remaining monitor. Making it groggily back to his feet, Insanity begins to bleed profusely from his forehead. Cannabis runs and hits a running haymaker sending Insanity back a step. Cannabis Irish Whips Insanity towards the ring steps and Insanity crashes into the steps with a loud bang. Cannabis runs and tries too kick Insanity in the head, but Insanity backdrops Cannabis over the steps. Cannabis lands with a smack as Insnaity grabs the ring steps. Insanity yanks the steps out of the corner and tosses them at Cannabis. Cannabis rolls out of the way just in time as the steps land with a loud bang.

Arquette: I love the power of Captain Insanity. Such a raw force to be reckooned with.

Caan: I just wanna point out, that Captain Insanity is not one guy I would want to meet in a dark alley.

Arquette: Dark alley? I wouldn't want to piss him off period!

A bloodied Cannabis and Insanity roll back into the ring. Staggering to their feet, both men refuse to give up. Insanity throws a right punch that barely connects with Cannabis's jaw. Staggering back a step, Cannabis reacts with a stiff kick to the gut of Insanity. Insanity keels over and Cannabis throws Insanity into the turnbuckle shoulder first. Insanity smacks into the turnbuckle and manages to pul himself out of the corner, only to have Cannabis turn him back into the turnbuckle and hita the Chronic. Cannabis covers a bloodied Insanity.

Referee: 1...2...3.

The bell rings as Cannabis barely rolls out of the ring after the long hard fought battle. The referee rolls out of the ring and hands Cannabis his Hardcore Title as he raises Cannabis's hand in victory.

Stroup: Here is your winner...the EWC HARDCORE CHAMPION...KID CANNABIS!

After the referee helps Cannabis back to his feet, a hooded man emerges from the crowd with a chair and rolls under the bottom rope. The man hits Captain Insanity in the head with the chair than turns him around and executes the Requim in SJ Minore. The man removes the hood and it is revealed to be Kyle Deathlocke. Deathlocke walks over to the announcer and asks for a microphone. After grabbing a microphone, he also grabs the International Championship and stands over a prone Captain Insanity.

Deathlocke: Look who the hell is here. What I see is a broken man who doesn't deserve to be a champion. Your pathetic Insanity. PATHETIC.

Deathlocke holds the International Championship in one hand and grabs Insanity's head with the other.

Deathlocke: You see this? This title...come next week it will no longer be yours. I'm cashing in my oppurtunity for a title shot and I...CHOSE...YOU. So be prepared to lose this. Come next Monday, what a horrible night to have a curse for you.

Deathlocke drops the microphone and Insanity's head as EMT's and security are outside the ring waiting to check on the condition of Captain Insanity. Deathlocke raises the title over his head before dropping the title on the chest of Captain Insanity. Deathlocke rolls out of the ring as the EMT's enter. Deathlocke hopped the barrier and started to make his way back through the crowd as a very sinister Mr. Strange joins him on the way out of the arena.

Arquette: Did Deathlocke just say that he was going to face Captain Insanity for the International Title?

Caan: This is amazing. A big announcement.

Arquette: HUGE! I thought that Deathlocke was in jail. I guess is pays to be on Mr. Strange's side. This just proves the intelligence of Oblivion to execute this so well.

Caan: I guess we have to tune in next week and see how this plays out.

Arquette: Well good night folks. I'm David Arquette...

Caan: And I'm Scott Caan.

Arquette: Good night everybody.
