*Brandon starts to climb up the cage.*
JK: I think Brandon has done it.
TH: He may have…
*Brandon gets halfway up the cage when AmericAnt starts to stir and has his hands on the cage walls. Brandon is not happy and starts motioning something. Suddenly, we see the Pack from the back.*
TH: What are they doing here?
JK: They are here to watch their mate get it done.
TH: I strongly doubt that is all they are here to do.
*They start to advance down the ramp, but all four guardians on the outside are waiting for them. They pause and smile as they look behind them. Suddenly, Toby and the girls of TNT come out as well.*
TH: What the…
JK: Seems the alliance between TNT and the Pack extends to tonight as well. Maybe Brandon wins and he gives a shot to Toby.
TH: That must be the reason and this isn’t fair!
*Suddenly The Caribbean Crew comes out from the back and attacks TNT.*
JK: What the heck are they doing here?
TH: Evening the odds a bit.
JK: This isn’t part of the plan.
*Tony takes out Toby Nicholas Tucker with a baseball bat. Benjamin grabs Tracy and puts her on his shoulders, taking her to the stage as she screams for him to let her go. Talia and Nicole try to save Tracy, but they get taken out by Rita and Marie. Benjamin puts Tracy down as Tony, Rita, and Tracy bring the rest of TNT back to the stage. They tell them to head to the back and sadly for the Pack, they do.*
JK: Where are you going?
TH: Heading to the back…you know this isn’t worth it.
*The Pack is shocked by all of this, then they turn around and see the four guardians smiling. Brandon still yells for some help so the Pack tries, but it doesn’t end well. Both Lauren and Beth get their arms twisted by Ronda. Chuck Norris hits Nick Britt with a big roundhouse kick. Shaun Clark runs into Haku and backs away. Unfortunately for him, he turns around and is hit in the ribs by Steve Blackman. This causes him to be in major pain. Brandon is not happy about all of this and finally looks over to AA. He is shocked to see that while this was all going on, AA has passed him by and is actually on the X structure.*
TH: Brandon may want to focus on beating the champ now by himself.
JK: Get up there, Brandon!!!
*Brandon climbs up fast and gets on the X scaffold. He walks on the structure as AmericAnt crawls to the center. Barger grabs his opponent’s mask and yells that the title is his. He goes for the punch, but AmericAnt grabs his fist. The champ then grabs his other arm and starts headbutting Brandon.*
TH: Headbutts to the head!!!
JK: This can’t be happening!!!
*AA drags him to the center. He then picks him up and scoop slams Brandon off the scaffold. Brandon lands hard on the mat as Lauren and Beth, who are still being held by Ronda, scream. AmericAnt lays down and uses his arms to unhook the belt and grab it for himself. The ref calls for the bell.*
MM: The winner of this match….And Still FAWA Fan Forums Champion…AMERICANT!!!
*The crowd cheers AmericAnt seems not really able to celebrate too much, but is able to raise his belt in the air. Ronda finally lets go of Lauren and Beth.
TH: Cage X has finally ended and the man who walked into Gookermania as champion gets to walk out of Gookermania as champion!
JK: How can you be so happy?!! Brandon is down there in a lot of pain!!! Beth and Lauren may have injuries to his arm!!! Shawn may have broken ribs!!! Nick may have a concussion!!! None of this was part of the plan!!!
TH: Their plan was to do the same thing as always and steal the belt. Jessica made sure no interference would happen and even then the Pack tried something with TNT, but thankfully the Caribbean Crew made sure that didn’t happen. This was fair and the better man won.
JK: I am going to try and protest this match!
TH: Go ahead and try. I don’t think it will do any good. AA will remain the champion on the biggest stage of all of e-feds. Now we need to go to a true war when we have Seth Drakin take on Antihero in a No Easy Way Out Dog Collar Match. We have a video package set up to show this whole war.
*The video package plays with World Champion Seth Drakin challenging Antihero to a title vs. career and power match; Antihero is beaten in said match and Seth takes him out with his ultraviolence while being ultimately saved from further harm by Gus Richlen and AmericAnt; Seth has his wife Jessica named in power and her making the Hell in a Cell Match at Gookermania VII; Seth loses his title in that match as he falls through the ring and hasn’t wrestled since; the huge revelation of Seth being the referee at the Lord of the Ring finals; Seth saying in an interview that he will return to wrestle at Gookermania VIII and no sooner; the mysterious hacking and attacks cause Jessica to wonder who it is; it ultimately is revealed to be Antihero and Seth ultimately shows up to accept Antihero’s Gookermania challenge; Antihero’s contract re-instatement to the company and he reveals his choice of the type of match he will face Seth in; flashbacks to Seth’s last FAWA No Easy Way Out Dog Collar Match against LittleNaitch; and finally, Seth’s in-ring retort. All of this with various sayings by the two combatants.*
TH: It all comes down to tonight folks. Seth Drakin takes on Antihero and this match will be very personal.
JK: As shown, Antihero was supposed to be done here, but his hatred for Seth has kept him around and now we are going to get a match that will definitely not be for the faint of heart.
TH: Parents, if you have any kids around, I extremely beg you to not your kids watch this because this is going to be bloody. But let’s get to the match.
*Antihero comes out from the back all focused and has the dog collars and chain. He rolls into the ring and looks at the entrance ramp giving a throat cut signal. He gives the chain and dog collars to the ref. He goes to his corner and stays there.*
TH: Antihero looks focused as ever and is showing no signs of any anxiety entering Gookermania.
JK: I just realized something and I’m not sure Seth and Jessica are going to like hearing this. But I went back to the last time Antihero was at Gookermania and it was two years ago. In that Gookermania, he ended the career of Seth’s former tag team championship partner MiscreAnt.
TH: That’s a good point and sadly I think Antihero wants to do the same to Seth.
JK: Well, let’s hope he doesn’t.
*The lights go out and mist comes from the stage. Western music plays as a man in a black cowboy hat and poncho shows up. He draws two pistols in the air and fires them in the air, which has fireworks shoot out at them.*
*The man removes his hat and poncho to reveal it is Seth Drakin. Seth looks at him as he walks to the ring. He enters the ring and poses for the crowd. He looks at Antihero and the dog collar and we can see he is ready.*
TH: An elaborate entrance by Seth Drakin, who obviously has come out as the man with no name. Must be ready for this showdown.
JK: Well considering what Antihero has said, he better be ready for this match.
TH: I’ll agree with you on that one.
MM: The following contest is the No Easy Way Out Dog Collar Match, scheduled for one fall. Both men will be connected to one another by a 20-foot chain attached to dog collars around their necks. There will be no disqualifications except for taking off the dog collar, no countouts, no submissions, and no referee stoppage. The only way the match can end, besides one man taking off the dog collar, is when one man to decide he has had enough of punishing his opponent and pins him. Now, our combatants, introducing first, from Wiesbaden, Hesse, Germany, at 5 feet 11 inches, and weighing in at 265 pounds—“THE KING COBRA” SETH DRAKIN! And, his opponent, from Society’s Worst Nightmares, height and weight unknown—ANTIHERO!
*The ref puts a dog collar around Drakin’s neck. Then, he puts the other around Antihero’s neck. The ref then grabs the middle part of the chain and holds it. The bell rings. The ref lets go of the chain, and Drakin and Antihero pull back on it with their necks. They are in a tug-o-war with the chain. They both grab the chain to try and win, but they are at a stalemate. They start to pull in closer to one another, but Antihero gets a longer link of chain and swings it at Drakin, hitting him. This causes Drakin to let go and fall back. However, he stays on his feet. Soon, both men are back at the tug-o-war. They pull closer to each other again, but this time Drakin gets the long chain part and swings it at Antihero. He ducks it and punches Drakin, knocking him back and down to the mat. Antihero tries to jump onto Drakin with a senton, but Drakin gets up.*
TH: We seem to be at a stalemate so far.
JK: They are taking their time. And, I don’t blame them. This is gonna be an all-out war. And, both men have to be worried what the other will do.
*Both men go back to the tug-o-war. They grab the chain to pull on it, but Drakin lets go of his part of the chain. Antihero falls back, and Drakin suddenly grabs the chain and pulls Antihero in. He punches Antihero, but Antihero punches back. Soon, they are trading blows with one another. This goes on until Drakin tries to go low. Antihero manages to block it and backs away. They grab the chain again and go back to the tug-o-war. Antihero gets a long bit of chain and swings it at Drakin’s left leg. He hits him, and Drakin jumps back. Antihero quickly wraps the chain around his right hand and charges at Drakin with several punches to the head with the chain, knocking him back into a corner.*
TH: Antihero gets the upperhand, punching Drakin back into the corner with the chain.
JK: This gonna get ugly fast! I wouldn’t be surprised if Drakin starts bleeding soon.
*Antihero punches on Drakin in the corner. He then whips Drakin with the chain a few times before backing off. He then pulls Drakin out of the corner with the chain and hits him with the Holy Ouch (superkick to Drakin’s stomach). Drakin staggers back, but Antihero pulls him back into another Holy Ouch (this time to his shoulder). Drakin staggers back again, but Antihero pulls him back into another Holy Ouch (this time to his head), knocking Drakin down.*
TH: Three Holy Ouches takes down Seth Drakin.
JK: There are so many different things you can do with it to punish you opponent, and Antihero used that chain beautifully.
*Antihero starts whipping Drakin with the chain as he lays on the mat. However, Drakin is able to get up. Unfortunately, the chain is between his legs. Antihero takes advantage and pulls the chain up into Drakin’s crotch and pulls him in. Antihero hits Drakin from behind, swinging him around into another punch. Drakin goes down again, and Antihero picks him up. However, Drakin surprises him an eye poke and starts punching Antihero. He punches Antihero back into a corner. Drakin then grabs the chain, wraps it around his hand, and punches Antihero several times.*
TH: Now, Drakin is punching Antihero with the chain around his hand.
JK: Yeah, but Antihero has that mask on. That’s gotta soften the blows a little.
TH: It’s a big advantage in this match.
*Drakin continues to punch Antihero with the chain. He then pulls Antihero out of the corner and takes him down with a snapmare takedown, pulling on the chain instead of Antihero’s head. Drakin pulls Antihero up by the chain in a seating position. He then grabs the chain, wraps it around Antihero’s head and neck, and pulls back with his knee in Antihero’s back, choking him. Antihero struggles to get out of the hold. Drakin drops an elbow onto Antihero’s head to stop him from struggling. He drops another elbow onto Drakin before picking him up. Drakin then kicks Antihero in the stomach and slaps him hard across the face, knocking Antihero back. He punches Antihero back to a corner, but Antihero surprises him with a roundhouse kick, knocking Drakin down.*
TH: Roundhouse kick out of nowhere takes down Seth Drakin.
JK: Drakin got a little cocky there, and it cost him.
*Drakin tries to get up, but Antihero charges at him and hits him with a knee to the side of Drakin’s head, knocking him back down. Antihero then gets behind Drakin, wraps the chain around his throat, and chokes him with it. Drakin struggles to get out of it, but Antihero has it on tight. He then wraps some more of the chain around Drakin’s mouth, puts his knee into Drakin’s back, and pulls back. Drakin struggles some more, so Antihero wraps more of the chain around Drakin’s head. Drakin struggles to get out, but Antihero has him trapped.*
TH: Dear Gawd! Antihero has that chain wrapped around Drakin’s head!
JK: He’s gonna crush it like a watermelon, Hoss! He’s gonna get his revenge tonight!
TH: I just hope he doesn’t go too far.
JK: I have a feeling that hope won’t come true.
*Antihero has the chain wrapped tight around Drakin’s head. Antihero starts punching Drakin in the head. However, Drakin starts punching Antihero in the gut. Antihero starts kicking Drakin in the gut, but this causes him to loosen his grip on the chain, allowing Drakin to unwrap it. But, Antihero keeps on punching and kicking Drakin. He wraps the chain around his hand again and punches Drakin with it. Drakin is able to get up onto his feet, but Antihero grabs Drakin and throws him into the corner. He then wraps the chain around the steel post and pulls back, choking Drakin with the dog collar.*
TH: Good Gawd! Antihero is choking Drakin by winching the chain around the steel ring post!
JK: Move over, Tommy Dreamer. We have a new Innovator Of Violence!
*Antihero continues to pull on the chain, choking Drakin. Drakin tries to pull himself out of the corner, but Antihero hits him with several punches. Antihero moves back and then charges at Drakin with a Yakuza kick. He gets his leg off the rope and continues to punch Drakin. Antihero then unwraps the chain from the post and moves from the center of the ring. He then pulls out a railroad spike from his boot. Antihero grabs the chain, pulls Drakin toward him, and hits him near the eye with the spike, knocking Drakin down.*
TH: GOOD GAWD ALMIGHTY! A RAILROAD SPIKE!? HE HIT DRAKIN WITH A RAILROAD SPIKE!
JK: I don’t believe it! He snuck in a railroad spike and tried to take out Drakin’s eye with it.
TH: Jesus, Antihero has gone insane!
*Antihero pulls Drakin up in a seated position and stabs Drakin in the eye with the spike. He pushes down on the spike, and blood start gushing out of the cut over Drakin’s eye. Drakin yells out in pain as Antihero pushes down on the spike, his face soon covered in blood.*
TH: DEAR GAWD! HE’S STABBING HIM!!!! Antihero has gone crazy!
JK: He’s been brutal before, but this is a whole new side of brutality we’re seeing from Antihero!
*Antihero keeps pushing down on the spike. The ref tries to talk some sense into Antihero, but he just ignores the ref. Finally, Antihero pulls the spike off of Drakin. He then walks over to the ropes and charges at Drakin to stab him again. However, Drakin surprises Antihero with a drop toe hold, taking Antihero down to the mat and causing him to stab the mat with the spike. The spike is embedded in the mat. Both men get up, but Drakin quickly clotheslines Antihero, knocking him throat first onto the spike. Antihero rolls around on the mat, holding his throat. Drakin puts his foot on Antihero’s throat, choking him. The ref grabs the spike, pulls it out of the mat, and puts it in his pocket as Drakin chokes Antihero.*
TH: Good Gawd! Antihero landing throat first onto that spike after it got embedded in the mat from Drakin’s counter.
JK: The ref confiscated that spike, and I don’t blame him. That is just too dangerous a weapon.
TH: Agreed. That chain is dangerous enough.
*Drakin takes his foot off of Antihero. He picks up Drakin and chokes him with both hands, pushing him back against the ropes. Antihero falls down, with Drakin now choking him on the mat. Drakin soon wraps the chain around Antihero’s throat and chokes him with it. Antihero struggles to break free. Eventually, he punches Drakin hard in the cut by his eye. Drakin falls over onto the mat, and Antihero exits the ring. Drakin follows. Antihero quickly grabs the chain and whips Drakin with it, going for the cut over his eye. However, Drakin is able to block the whipping and pulls Antihero toward him. Antihero comes flying toward him, and Drakin punches him hard. He grabs the chain and starts whipping Antihero, knocking him back to the timekeeper’s area. Antihero grabs a chair and throws it at Drakin, but Drakin ducks it. However, Antihero is able to run at Drakin and kicks him in the crotch.*
TH: Antihero goes low.
JK: That’s always effective.
TH: I would call him out on it, but after that railroad spike, going low is down right gentlemanly.
*Antihero climbs up onto the apron and pulls on the chain. He pulls Drakin up onto the apron. He starts punching Drakin, but Drakin punches back. Drakin then kicks Antihero in the stomach. Antihero staggers back, allowing Drakin to wrap the chain around his hand. Antihero tries to attack Drakin, but Drakin punches him hard in the throat. Antihero goes down, holding his throat. Drakin mounts Antihero and punches several more times with the chain, a few times hitting him in the throat.*
TH: Seth Drakin mercilessly punching Antihero in throat.
JK: That spike to the eye may have awoken something in Drakin.
TH: I wouldn’t be surprised if it did.
*Antihero starts punching back and is able to away from Drakin. Drakin follows and grabs Antihero from behind. He then rams Antihero head first into the steel post. Antihero staggers back. Drakin follows and starts whipping Antihero with the chain. Antihero tries to get away, but Drakin follows, whipping him. He then grabs Antihero from behind and throws him head first into the timekeeper’s table. Drakin grabs a chair and throws it down onto the ground. He then grabs Antihero and bodyslams him onto the chair.*
TH: Bodyslam onto the chair. These two men are just beating the holy hell out of one another.
JK: We knew that was gonna happen. We just didn’t know how bloody and brutal they were gonna be to one another.
*Drakin gets up onto the apron. He uses the chain to pull Antihero up. He then pulls Antihero towards the ring and kicks him in the head, knocking Antihero back. He hits the guardrail, and Drakin jumps down onto him with a double-axe handle. Drakin then whips Antihero into the ring apron. As he bounces off the apron, Drakin picks him up for a belly-to-back suplex, dropping him down onto the floor. Drakin gets up and goes over to the timekeeper’s area. He grabs a chair and moves back to Antihero. Drakin waits for Antihero to get up. He does, and Drakin blasts him in the back with the chair.*
TH: Steel chair to the back after that belly-to-back suplex on the floor. Drakin is looking to work over the back.
JK: Smart move. Pick a body part and beat on it until Antihero can’t move without pain.
*Drakin slides the chair into the ring. He then picks up Antihero and throws him into the ring. Drakin climbs back into the ring. Antihero is crawling across the ring. Drakin charges at him, jumps up, and lands on Antihero with the I4I (Curb Stomp).*
TH: I4I takes down Antihero.
JK: He’s looking to hurt Antihero now.
*Drakin gets up and grabs the chair. He slams it onto Antihero’s back and then throws it down. Drakin then picks up Antihero and suplexes him onto the chair. Antihero sits up, holding his back. Drakin gets up and grabs Antihero. He picks Antihero up and hits him with some Ultra Violence (Dragon Sleeper Backcracker). Drakin rolls over, picks up Antihero, and hits him with another Ultra Violence. He rolls over again, picks up Antihero, and hits him with a third Ultra Violence. Drakin rolls over again, picks up Antihero, and hits him with a fourth Ultra Violence. He rolls over again, picks up Antihero, and goes for a fifth Ultra Violence, but Antihero is close enough to the ropes to grab the top rope. Antihero stays on his feet and Drakin hits the mat. Antihero then falls down, holding his back.*
TH: Antihero puts an end to Drakin’s Ultra Violence parade, but he’s obviously feeling the effects of it now.
JK: That’s dangerous move. And, I’m amazed Antihero was able to get out of it.
*Drakin gets up and whips Antihero with the chain some more. He then goes over to grab the chair. He picks it up and goes back to Antihero. However, Antihero suddenly yanks the chain. He sends Drakin flying into the corner, and Drakin hits the chair face first on the second turnbuckle. The crowd gasps in fear as Drakin’s head and neck bend back like he nearly broke his neck. Drakin falls onto the mat, and the ref checks on him.*
TH: Oh my Gawd!
JK: Jesus Christ! He hit the chair on the turnbuckle hard!
TH: Antihero yanked the chain and damn near broke Drakin’s neck.
JK: I think he may actually have broken it.
*Drakin’s neck isn’t broken, but he is dazed and confused. He keeps trying to get up but keeps falling down. The ref tries to talk to him, but no one’s home. Antihero gets up, holding his back. He limps over to the chair and grabs it. Antihero slaps the chair on the mat a few times and waits for Drakin to get up. Drakin keeps struggling to get up, but he finally manages to get to the ropes and pulls himself up. Drakin turns around and somehow walks over to Antihero, but Antihero blasts him over the head with the chair. Drakin goes down.*
TH: Good Gawd! That was not necessary!
JK: That has to do it for Seth Drakin. And, I don’t just mean in this match.
*Antihero puts down the chair and covers Drakin.
1…
2…
Antihero gets up and shakes his head no. He picks up the chair and hits Drakin with it. He then hits Drakin again. And, again. And, again. And, again.*
TH: Good Gawd almighty! What is he doing?
JK: That’s enough, man! It’s over! Just end it!
*Antihero puts down the chair and covers Drakin.
1…
2…
Antihero gets up and shakes his head no. The crowd boos loudly. He picks up the chair and hits Drakin with it. He then hits Drakin again. And, again. And, again. And, again.*
TH: Stop this, dammit!
JK: Someone has to stop this. This is just not right.
*Antihero puts down the chair and covers Drakin.
1…
2…
Antihero gets up and shakes his head no. The crowd boos even louder. The ref yells at Antihero to stop it. But, he just picks up the chair and hits Drakin with it. He then hits Drakin again. And, again. And, again. And, again.*
TH: DAMMIT STOP!
JK: He’s gonna kill him, Hoss.
*Antihero puts down the chair and covers Drakin.
1…
2…
Antihero gets up and shakes his head no. Some garbage comes flying into the ring. Antihero picks up the chair and hits Drakin with it. He then hits Drakin again. And, again. And, again. And, again.*
TH: Dear Gawd, man! Show some mercy.
JK: He doesn’t know the meaning of the word.
*Antihero puts down the chair and covers Drakin.
1…
2…
Antihero gets up and shakes his head no. The crowd boos louder than ever and throws more garbage. Antihero picks up the chair, but the referee grabs it from. The boos suddenly turn to cheers.*
TH: Thank God for the ref!
JK: That was the best damn call he’s ever made in his life.
*Antihero is pissed. He confronts the referee, telling him that he can’t stop the match and that he’s just there to make the pin. But, the ref isn’t having it. He tells Antihero that Drakin can’t go on and demands him to end the match. Antihero just shrugs and punches the ref, knocking him down.*
TH: What the hell!?
JK: He hit the referee! He’s insane!
*Antihero grabs the chair and waits for the ref to get up. He does, and Antihero hits him in the back with it.*
TH: Antihero has snapped!
JK: We need security out here! Hell, we need the police! The FBI! Interpol! Someone come stop this man!
*Antihero throws down the chair. He then spots the railroad spike; it has fallen out of the referee’s pocket. Antihero grabs it and goes over to Drakin. He pulls Drakin up by his hair and stabs him in the cut eye with the spike. More garbage goes flying at Antihero.*
TH: SOMEONE STOP THIS!
JK: He’s really gonna kill him, Hoss!
*As Antihero stabs Drakin, Mr. E and U.N. Owen run out. The crowd cheers as they slide into the ring. Mr. E blasts Antihero from behind, knocking him down and causing him to drop the spike. Owen grabs the spike and throws it away. Antihero gets up and attacks Mr. E. Owen comes to his aid. As they fight, Jessica Drakin comes down to check on her husband. She takes the dog collar off of his neck and calls for EMTs to come out.*
TH: Thank Gawd! Drakin is safe!
JK: It’s about damn time!
*Mr. E and Owen beat down on Antihero, but Antihero stops them with two low blows. They both fall to their knees. Antihero grabs the chair. Mr. E gets up and gets whacked in the head with the chair, knocking him out. Owen gets up, and Antihero hits him with the chair, sending him flying over the ropes. Antihero throws the chair at Owen, hitting him in the head.*
JK: There goes security!
TH: We need more help now!
*Antihero then turns to Jessica Drakin. She looks at him in fear and tries to pull Drakin out of the ring. However, Antihero charges at her and grabs her by her hair. Antihero then says to her, “We had a contract, a deal! And, you renege on a deal with me!? That ain’t gonna fly! You need to learn what happens to people who break deals with me.”*
TH: Oh GAWD! What is he gonna do!?
JK: Somebody needs to stop this.
*Suddenly, AmericAnt runs out through the crowd. He comes flying off the top turnbuckle and hits Antihero with the Rocket's Red Glare (Flying Clothesline), knocking him and Jessica down. She gets up and goes to her husband.*
TH: Thank Gawd! AmericAnt has saved the day.
JK: I can’t believe I’m about to say this, but I’m glad the Patriotic Pest is out here!
*Both men get up. Antihero tries to punch AmericAnt, but he ducks it and grabs Antihero from behind, hitting him with the American Slam. AmericAnt gets up and grabs the chain. He pulls Antihero up and pulls him into a punch. Antihero staggers back, and AmericAnt pulls him into another punch. Antihero staggers back again, and AmericAnt pulls him back into another punch. But, Antihero is able to poke AmericAnt in the eye, allowing him to make his escape.*
TH: Antihero gets away.
JK: He better run. After what he did, I suspect that AmericAnt might go psycho as well.
*Antihero walks over to the ramp. AmericAnt motions for him to come back, but Antihero just flips him off. He then takes off the dog collar and throws it down to the ground. The crowd boos as Antihero walks away.*
TH: I can’t believe his actions tonight.
JK: I can! Antihero has been doing demonic things for years, but he did in on the side of angels. But, if you fight like a demon, eventually you’ll be come one.
TH: Demonic is apt for that man. He has turned into a monster.
*Back in the ring, EMTs check on Drakin. They try to put him on a stretcher, but Drakin refuses. He manages to exit the ring on his feet. Jessica goes over to help hold up her husband, and they slowly make their way up the ramp, with the EMTs, AmericAnt, Mr. E, and U.N. Owen following them. The crowd cheers as Drakin walks out on his feet.*
TH: Somehow, Seth Drakin has walked out on his feet.
JK: He may not have won the match, but he certainly won the crowd’s respect.
TH: There were no winners tonight, but Antihero is definitely gonna be a loser after this.
*Backstage, we see Jessica Drakin as they wheel her husband into the ambulance. She gets on the phone with someone.*
Jessica: Hello, Oliver…..did you just see what happened?
*A pause.*
Jessica: Well, I’ve decided to quit. This job isn’t worth it. Find somebody new to run this place.
*Jessica hangs up and gets into the ambulance with the EMTs and her husband. We see Mr. E and U.N. Owen follow behind in a car.*
TH: Did you just hear that? Jessica just quit her job as the authority here.
JK: That sucks.
TH: Hopefully the board will be able to find someone new quickly. I guess we have to move to the next match which is a contest between Michael Rose and Sorrow. This has gone on for more than a year and it hopefully will end tonight. We have this video package to share that will show the entire feud leading to this point.
*The video package shows all of the actions that happen like Sorrow stalking Kerri Thompson, Michael Rose defeating Bobby Riggs in a Loser Leaves Town In An Ice Cream Truck, the mysterious Smiley Face situation that eventually allowed Bobby Riggs to come back, the tag match where they had to team together or they would lose something, the revelation of Sorrow finding a loophole so he didn’t lose his mask, the mask being put on the line at Summerfest, the draw in that match, the two security guards who would keep them apart until here, and challenge.*
MM: Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome David Gilmour…
*David Gilmour and his band play Sorrow’s theme, Pink Floyd’s “Sorrow,” with a laser light show going on around them:
*
[Guitar intro]
The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land
Plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky
A man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers
But awakes to a morning with no reason for waking
He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise
In his youth or a dream, he can't be precise
He's chained forever to a world that's departed
It's not enough, it's not enough
His blood has frozen and curdled with fright
His knees have trembled and given way in the night
His hand has weakened at the moment of truth
His step has faltered
One world, one soul
Time pass, the river rolls
[Guitar solo]
And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication
And silent replies that swirl invitation
Flow dark and troubled to an oily sea
A grim intimation of what is to be
There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night
And there's dust in my eyes that blinds my sight
And silence that speaks so much louder that words
Of promises broken
[Guitar solo]
*Sorrow come out to the boos of the crowd. Sorrow has on his trademark mask, black wrist tape, black elbow pads with the cross from the mask on them, and black wrestling pants with the cross from the mask down the legs. The crosses on the mask, elbow pads, and pants are blue. He also has on black boots. Masters is wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans, and boots. They walk down to the ring, climb onto the apron, and step over the top rope.*
TH: Well, this should be brutal.
JK: Oh yeah. Rose and Sorrow are gonna beat the holy hell out of each other, and nothing can stop them for doing that. Speaking of which, why is Masters still walking around with Sorrow.
TH: Mrs. Drakin did state that he and Howard George Hammond were to remain by Sorrow and Rose’s side respectively until their match at Gookermania. I’m guessing she had them follow that literally.
JK: Well, bringing those two in did the trick. Rose and Sorrow haven’t fought since that tag match on NiteRaw a few weeks ago. Which makes me wonder why she didn’t think of that sooner.
MM: Now, please welcome, Seal!
*Seal takes the stage to play Michael Rose’s theme, “Kiss From A Rose”:

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea.
You became the light on the dark side of me.
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill.
But did you know,
That when it snows,
My eyes become large and,
The light that you shine can be seen.
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey.
Ooh, The more I get of you,
Stranger it feels, yeah.
And now that your rose is in bloom.
A light hits the gloom on the grey.

*Michael Rose, Kerri Thompson, and Howard George Hammond come out to the cheers of the crowd as hundreds of roses drop down from the rafters. Rose is wearing white short wrestling trunks, white elbow and knee pads, and white boots, all with a rose on them. Rose is also holding a rose bouquet. Kerri is wearing a black shirt with a rose on it, blue jeans, and boots. Rose sniffs the bouquet but doesn’t throw any as usual since the crowd is being showered with Roses. They eventually make it to the ring and slide under the bottom rope. In the ring, Rose makes his way to a corner, stands on the second turnbuckle, sniffs the rose bouquet, and blows a kiss to the crowd. Rose then hands the bouquet to Kerri.*
TH: Man, look at all the flowers, King! Isn’t this something?
JK: Yeah, that something is terrible! I’m getting scratched by the thorns! OW!
TH: What are you talking about? These roses have been de-thorned.
JK: They have? I mean, I knew that…
MM: The following contest is the Career VS Mask Path To Sorrow Match. The rules of this match are as followed. There will be no disqualifications, and the match cannot be won by pinfall. In order to win the match, one man must keep his opponent down for a 10 count, make him bleed, and force him to say “I Quit.” It does not have to be in that particular order, but all three must be achieved in order to be declared the victor. And, as decided upon by both participants, if Michael Rose loses the match, he and Kerri Thompson will be forced to retire from professional wrestling. And, if Sorrow loses the match, he will be forced to remove his match. Introducing first, accompanied by “The Machine” Mark Masters, at 6 foot 9 inches, and weighing 305 lbs., from The Saddest Place In The World: THE DEPRESSED DESTROYER, SORROW. And, his opponent, accompanied by Kerri Thompson and Howard George Hammond, at 6 foot 4 inches, and weighing 262 pounds, from Las Vegas, Nevada: MICHAEL ROSE.
*Muffer leaves the ring. Rose, Kerri, and Hammond stand in the center of the ring with Sorrow and Masters across from them. The bell rings. Sorrow then yells at Hammond, “Do it.” Hammond suddenly turns around blasts Rose with a clothesline. Kerri and Masters look shocked at Hammond stomps down on Rose. Kerri tries to stop him, but Hammond pushes her off. Suddenly, Masters jumps on Hammond and starts punching him. Sorrow goes to stop him, but Masters fights him off.*
TH: Good Gawd! What the hell is going on!?
JK: Don’t you get it, Hoss!? Sorrow paid off Hammond to attack Rose! But, that idiots Masters is coming to his aid for some reason.
TH: Thank God he is! At least this will be a fair fight now!
*Masters manages to fight off Sorrow and Hammond. Rose recovers and charges at Sorrow with a clothesline. He knocks Sorrow back and punches against the ropes. Hammond and Masters keep on fight, spilling to the outside. Referees come down to break up their fight and get them out of the match. But, Hammond and Masters keep on fighting. The refs are able to get them to fight their way back to the backstage area.*
TH: There goes Masters and Hammond, fighting their way up the entrance ramp!
JK: I don’t know why Sorrow didn’t try to pay them both off.
TH: Either way, his plan has failed; and now this match can get on like it should, with just Sorrow and Rose duking it out.
*As Kerri exits the ring, Rose continues to punch Sorrow against the ropes until Sorrow piefaces him off. Rose gets back up on his feet and yells at Sorrow to come at him. Sorrow regains his composure and then moves away from the ropes. They circle each other and charge at each other with several punches. Sorrow soon gets the upperhand and punches Rose back into a corner. Sorrow punches Rose several more times and tries to whip him across the ring. However, Rose holds onto the rope and pulls Sorrow into a vicious right hand that sends him staggering back. Sorrow then charges at Rose, but Rose stops him with a kick to the gut. Sorrow doubles over, and Rose puts him into a headlock. Sorrow pushes Rose back into the ropes and throws him off. However, Rose bounces off the ropes and surprises Sorrow with The Red Rose (Running STO).*
TH: Red Rose out of nowhere! Michael Rose is looking strong so far!
JK: Yeah, but he has a difficult road ahead of him. He might be able to keep Sorrow down for 10 count, but I don’t see how he’ll make Sorrow bleed or say “I Quit.”
TH: We’ll just have to see how this match turns out.
*Both men get up. Sorrow charges at Rose, but Rose catches him with a headlock takedown, holding onto the headlock. He has it locked on tight as Sorrow struggles to get out of it. Sorrow starts pull himself up off the mat. Rose tries to stop him, but Sorrow is able to get up. Rose still has the headlock on though. But, Sorrow is able to slip out of it and puts Rose into a headlock of his own. He gets Rose down onto his knees, and Rose starts pulling back on Sorrow’s mask. Sorrow punches Rose a few times to get him stop. However, this allows Rose to push Sorrow up onto his feet and back into the ropes. Rose pushes Sorrow off, sending him across the ring. Sorrow bounces off the ropes and hits Rose with a running DDT when goes down for a back body drop.*
TH: Vicious DDT to Michael Rose!
JK: He messed up going for the back body drop. And, Sorrow took advantage.
TH: Yeah, this is not a match you can afford to make a mistake in.
JK: Oh no! One mistake can be deadly here.
*Kerri cheers on Rose as Sorrow stomps on him on the mat. Sorrow then goes to ropes and bounces off of them. Rose rolls over to trip Sorrow, but Sorrow jumps over him and hits the opposite side ropes. As Sorrow bounces off those ropes, Rose jumps up and leapfrogs Sorrow. Sorrow bounces off the other ropes, and Rose catches him with an armdrag takedown into an armbar. He has it locked on tight, but Sorrow gets to the bottom rope and grabs it. However, the ref doesn’t do anything. Sorrow yells at him, but the ref says that a rope break doesn’t count in this match.*
JK: Why doesn’t the ref break up the hold!?
TH: Because failing to break a submission hold when the opponent has the ropes is a disqualification, and there are no disqualifications in this match!
JK: Dammit! That’s not fair!
TH: But, Sorrow is the one who made this match!
JK: That’s why it’s not fair!
*Sorrow keeps arguing with the ref, but it does him no good. So, he suddenly punches Rose hard to get him to let go. Sorrow then slides out of the ring for a breather. Kerri taunts him, and Sorrow yells at her to shut up. Sorrow then climbs up onto the apron, but Rose surprises him with a punch. He then suplexes Sorrow back into the ring. Rose gets up and jumps down onto Sorrow with a double-handed choke. The ref gets down in Sorrow’s face with the microphone.*
Ref: Do you wanna quit?
Sorrow: NO!

As Rose doubles over, Sorrow clubs him on the back with a hard forearm. Rose stands up, and Sorrow punches Rose in the throat. Sorrow punches Rose again, knocking him back into the corner.

Ref: You wanna quit, Rose?
Rose: Hell no!
*Rose suddenly rakes Sorrow’s eyes, causing him to let go and get off of him.*
TH: Rose refuses to quit.
JK: I’m surprised they’re going for the I Quit part of the match stipulation. Making them bleed is the easiest one. That’s what I’d do first and keep on beating on them hoping they lose too much blood to stand up and forcing them to quit.
TH: Well, I figured they wanna get the hardest one over with, which is obviously the I Quit part.
JK: Well, that’s not gonna happen anytime soon.
*Rose tries to get up, but Sorrow pounces on him with several punches to keep him down. Sorrow then gets up and picks up Rose. He then whips Rose into a corner and charges at him with a running corner body splash, hitting it. Sorrow then kicks Rose and punches him a few more times. Rose is able to get out of the corner, but Sorrow follows. He punches Rose to another corner and grabs him. He pushes Rose into the ropes and tries to whip him across the ring, but Rose reverses it. As Sorrow bounces off the ropes, Rose catches him with a spinning spinebuster. Sorrow hits the mat hard, rolling around in pain. Rose gets up and waits for Sorrow to get up. He does, and Rose dropkicks Sorrow, sending him back to the ropes. Rose gets up again and clotheslines Sorrow over the ropes to the outside. Rose goes to the apron and waits for Sorrow to get up. He does, and Rose jumps off with an asai moonsault, landing on Sorrow and sending him to the floor. Rose manages to land on his feet and poses for the crowd.*
TH: Asai moonsault to Sorrow as this match goes to the outside.
JK: That didn’t take long. I expect some weapons to be thrown into the mix soon.
*The ref goes to the outside, and Rose wants him to start counting. The ref obliges.

Sorrow gets up. Rose grabs Sorrow and slams him head first onto the apron. Rose grabs Sorrow, drags him to the steel steps, and slams him head first onto the steps.

TH: Rose gets up at six after taking the sidewalk slam onto the floor.
JK: It’s gonna get uglier from here, Hoss.
*Kerri comes over the guardrail and checks on Rose. Sorrow runs over and pushes her away, yelling at her to stay out of it. Rose suddenly punches Sorrow, but Sorrow gets a knee into his gut and starts clubbing Rose’s back to stop his momentum. Sorrow keeps on punching Rose, but the punches start to fire Rose up. He starts punching back, and they are now trading blows. Rose starts punching Sorrow back to the guardrail, but Sorrow stops him with a knee to the gut. He then grabs Rose and whips him back to the guardrail. Rose hits it hard, and Sorrow charges at him with a clothesline, sending him over the guardrail and to the ringside floor. Sorrow climbs over the guardrail and goes to the ring. He pulls up the ring curtain and grabs some tables and chairs from under the ring. He also grabs a steel chain. He blasts Rose in the back with a chair, knocking him down, and then grabs the tables. He sets up two of the tables and then grabs the chain and wraps it around his right hand. He then grabs the mic from the ref, picks up Rose, and gets into his face.*
Sorrow: Say, “I Quit!”, or else I use this chain. And, you sure as hell aren’t gonna like how I use it.
Rose: I…
*Rose suddenly punches Sorrow, knocking him down.*
TH: I guess that’s a “NO!”
JK: Gee, you think, Hoss?
*Rose takes a breather by the guardrail. Sorrow is still down but soon gets up. Rose comes up behind him and blasts him with a forearm shot to the back. He then unleashes a flurry of clubbing blows onto Sorrow’s back. After several blows, Rose picks up Sorrow and tries to whip him into the steel steps. However, Sorrow reverses it and sends Rose into the steps instead. Rose hits them shoulder first. Kerri comes over to check on him. While she does that, Sorrow grabs the steel chain he dropped earlier. He then goes over to Rose, pushes Kerri away, and begins whipping Rose with the chain.*
TH: Good Gawd! Sorrow is just mercilessly whipping Rose with that chain.
JK: Shades of last year’s Gookermania in the Loser Leaves Town In An Ice Cream Truck Match between Rose and the Comedian.
TH: Bobby Riggs was a monster with that chain. So, I hate to think about what Sorrow is gonna do with it.
*Rose manages to get up and tries to get away, but Sorrow follows and keeps on whipping him. Sorrow then grabs Rose, pulls him back onto the steel ring post, wraps the chain around Rose’s neck, and pulls back, choking him with it. He yells at the ref to ask Rose if he wants to quit.*
Ref: Do you wanna quit?
*Rose can’t answer, doing nothing but coughing. Kerri runs over to check on him.*
TH: Dear Gawd! He’s gonna choke out Rose until he passes out.
JK: That’s one way to keep him down for a ten count.
*Rose starts fading. Kerri yells at Sorrow to stop. He just yells back at her to go away. This distracts Sorrow a little, allowing Rose to pull forward and send Sorrow into the post. He lets go of the chain, and Rose falls to the floor. Kerri rushes to his side. However, Sorrow is able to recover and pushes Kerri away again. He then stomps on Rose and goes back to under the ring. He soon pulls out a ladder. Rose starts to get up, but Sorrow charges at him and hits him with the ladder, knocking him back down.*
TH: Good Gawd! He just plowed Rose with that ladder!
JK: He’s gonna pull out everything from under the ring to beat up on Rose!
*Sorrow then slides the ladder into the ring. He slides into the ring as well and gets up. Sorrow quickly sets up the ladder by the ropes facing the two tables he set up earlier. Sorrow exits the ring, grabs the chain, wraps it around Rose’s neck, and pulls him up, choking him. He pulls him over to the side of the ring where the tables are set up and climbs up onto the apron. He pulls on the chain, choking Rose. Rose manages to climb up onto the apron to relieve some of the pressure. However, Sorrow starts climbing up the far side of the ladder. He pulls on the chain, forcing Rose to climb up as well in order to stop the choking. Sorrow reaches the top, wraps the chain around his hand, and starts punching Rose’s back. After working him over a bit, Sorrow grabs Rose, picks him up, and jumps off with the Dreadbomb (Superbomb), crashing down onto the tables. The crowd starts chanting “Holy shit!”*
TH: Baw Gawd! Dreadbomb from the top of the ladder to the tables on the floor!
JK: Jesus Christ! How in the hell will they be able to get up!?
*Both men are down and out. Kerri checks on Rose, and the ref starts a count.

The bell rings. The ref goes over to Muffer, and they converse a little bit.*
MM: The referee has informed me that since both men were unable to get up before the count of ten, he is awarding both men a fall. So, both Michael Rose and Sorrow are tied at one-to-one. They now have to make one another bleed and say “I Quit” in order to win the match.
TH: Well, Sorrow has taken down Rose for a ten count, but he also took himself out and gave Rose a fall.
JK: That might have been a mistake, but he can still recover.
*Both men finally start go get up. Sorrow suddenly charges at Rose, but Rose grabs a piece of the table, turns around, and hits Sorrow with it, knocking him down to the floor. Rose then picks up Sorrow and whips him into the timekeeper’s area. Sorrow hits the timekeeper’s table hard. Rose then charges at Sorrow, but Sorrow grabs a chair, turns around, and blasts Rose in the head with the chair. Rose goes down, and Kerri rushes to his side.*
TH: Dammit! What a chair shot!
JK: There goes Michael Rose’s comeback!
TH: Look at the dent in that chair.
JK: That had to bust Rose open.
*Sure enough, when Rose pulls himself up with the ring apron, we see blood gushing from a cut above his eye. The bell rings.*
MM: Michael Rose is bleeding. Sorrow is up two-to-one. He only has to make Rose say “I Quit” to win the match.
JK: Yes! Sorrow is gonna do it! He is gonna rid professional wrestling from Michael Rose and Kerri Thompson!
TH: Michael Rose is bleeding, and his chances in this match no longer look good.
*Sorrow moves away from the timekeeper’s area as Kerri checks on Rose. He looks dazed but seems able to continue. Meanwhile, Sorrow grabs the steel steps Rose knocked over. He walks over to where Rose and Kerri are. Sorrow is looking to hit Rose with the steps, but Kerri stands in the way. Sorrow yells for her to move, but she refuses. So, he goes to hit her. She stands tall, but Rose pushes her out of the way and takes the brunt of the steep steps, knocking him down.*
TH: Dear Gawd! Michael Rose sacrificed himself and got clobbered by those steel steps!
JK: That idiot! He should have just let Sorrow hit Kerri!
TH: She’s his girlfriend. He couldn’t do that!
JK: Well, he’s probably gonna lose this match because of that.
*Rose struggles to get up. Sorrow walks over and kicks him back down, toying with Rose. He grabs the mic from the ref.*
Sorrow: Quit. *kicks Rose* Just quit, dammit! *kicks Rose* Go on, quit! *kicks Rose* Just let me put you out of your misery. *kicks Rose* Just give up. *kicks Rose* It’s gonna get worse from here. *kicks Rose* Quit, dammit! Quit! *kicks Rose*
*Rose is finally able to stand up, but Sorrow hits him in the head with the mic. Rose goes into the ring, but Sorrow follows him. He picks up Rose and hits him with the mic again. Sorrow then continues to kick Rose. He unleashes a flurry of kicks before picking Rose up. He pushes Rose back into the ropes and whips him across the ring into the ladder. Rose hits it and bounces off of it, knocking it over the ropes and out of the ring. Sorrow suddenly charges at Rose and hits him with Teardrops (Lou Thesz press followed by multiple punches).*
TH: Teardrops to Michael Rose, with each punching opening that cut some more.
JK: Sorrow is determined to get Rose to say “I Quit!” That’s all he needs to do to win, and he’s determined to get the victory.
*Sorrow gets up and picks up Rose. He suddenly pulls Rose into a vicious clothesline that knocks him back down to the mat. Sorrow picks up Rose again, this time chokeslamming him back to the mat. Sorrow then goes back to the outside and grabs the steel chain. He reenters the ring, goes to Rose, wraps the chain around Rose’s neck, puts his knee into Rose’s back, and pulls back on the chain. Rose starts struggling around to get out of it, but Sorrow has a tight hold on Rose. He yells at the ref to ask Rose if he wants to quit.*
Ref: Do you wanna quit?
*Rose just coughs, unable to answer. He starts fading.*
Sorrow: Quit! Dammit, quit! Don’t pass out! Quit first!
TH: Sorrow is relentless in his punishment of Rose.
JK: He should just quit! It’s pretty much over for him. He may as well give up and go take that real estate license exam he’s been meaning to take all these years.
TH: Will you stop!?
*Rose struggles to get out. Kerri cheers him on as Sorrow yells at him to quit. The crowd start chanting Rose’s name as well. They’re rallying behind him. And, Rose starts to gain a second wind. He manages to get himself and Sorrow on their feet. Rose suddenly starts punching Sorrow in the gut. However, Sorrow knees Rose in the groin, knocking him to his knees. Sorrow then takes the mic again.*
Sorrow: Quit! Why are you holding on? It’s over! You’re done. Just give up. You’ll feel better when you do!
Rose: *pause* f*** you!
*The crowd cheers. Sorrow slams the mic down on him. Suddenly, Rose punches Sorrow. Sorrow punches back, but Rose punches his way back up. Sorrow punches back, but Rose ducks one. Sorrow swings around, and Rose grabs him from behind and hits him with The Purple Rose (Ricochet, belly to back suplex into an elbow drop to the stomach).*
TH: Purple Rose out of nowhere!
JK: How did he hit that!? He’s been out on his feet for several minutes!
TH: I think Sorrow pissed him off into a comeback!
JK: Dammit! This wasn’t supposed to happen!
*Both men get up, but Rose surprises Sorrow with a clothesline. Sorrow gets up, and Rose clotheslines him again. Sorrow gets up again, and Rose punches him back into the ropes. He whips Sorrow across the ring. As he bounces off the ropes, Rose catches Sorrow with a hip toss. Both men get up. Rose kicks Sorrow in the gut, and hits him with The White Rose (Inverted suplex slam into a double knee gutbuster).*
TH: White Rose continues Rose’s comeback!
JK: Dammit! He was supposed to quit! Why didn’t he quit!?
*With Sorrow down on the mat, Rose climbs up to the top turnbuckle. He then jumps off with shooting star press, landing on Sorrow. Rose then gets up and grabs the steel chain. The crowd cheers as Rose takes the chain and whips Sorrow. Sorrow rolls over, but Rose continues to whip him. Sorrow tries to leave the ring, but Rose gets on top of him, wraps the chain around his throat, and chokes him with it.*
TH: Payback to Sorrow for choking Rose earlier!
JK: No! Not like this!
*Sorrow struggles to get away, but Rose has the chain tightly wrapped around him. Rose then tells the ref to ask Sorrow if he wants to quit.*
Ref: Do you wanna quit?
Sorrow: Never… *gags*
*Rose pulls back tighter. Sorrow manages to get up onto his feet and tries to get away, but Rose still has a hold of him and chokes him harder. Suddenly, Sorrow slips under Rose’s arm, lifts him up, and drops Rose into a backbreaker. This causes Rose to let go of the chain. Sorrow gets the chain off of his neck and exits the ring. He takes a breather and then tries to leave. Kerri runs over and blocks him. Sorrow sighs and then just grabs Kerri by her hair. She struggles to break free. Sorrow taunts her. Suddenly, Rose comes flying through the ropes with a suicide dive and hits Sorrow, knocking him and Kerri down. Kerri is able to get up, but Sorrow and Rose stay down.*
TH: Suicide dive saves Kerri Thompson from a world of hurt.
JK: She wouldn’t have been in that position if she hadn’t got into Sorrow’s face.
TH: It looked like he was running away.
JK: Never! I’m sure he was trying to lure Rose out of the ring, which did work.
TH: Not like Sorrow probably planned.
*The ref exits the ring and checks on both men. Sorrow starts crawling away and soon gets up. He starts walking toward the entranceway. But, he doesn’t know that Rose is starting to get up as well. Rose gets on his feet and goes after Sorrow. He grabs Sorrow from behind and throws him into the steel guardrail. Rose pulls Sorrow away from the guardrail, but Sorrow surprises him with a punch to the throat. Sorrow then goes for a chokeslam, but Rose slips out of it and lands behind Sorrow. Sorrow turns around, and Rose quickly kicks him in the gut. Rose then grabs Sorrow and hits him with The Orange Rose (Sit-out inverted suplex slam) onto the floor.*
TH: Orange Rose right on the unforgiving floor!
JK: Sorrow has taken a lot of punishment, and he’s gonna have to take some more if he hopes to recover and make Rose say “I Quit!”
*Rose gets up and poses for the crowd, who cheers him. As he does this, Sorrow starts crawling his way up the entranceway ramp. Rose goes after him and grabs him. He picks up Sorrow, but Sorrow surprises him with a poke to the eye. Sorrow then picks up Rose and hits him with a running powerslam on the entranceway stage. Sorrow then picks up Rose and moves him near the edge of the stage. He then attempts another Dreadbomb. However, Kerri comes up behind Sorrow and blasts him with the back with that rose bouquet. Flowers go flying, revealing a lead pipe in the bouquet. Sorrow lets Rose go as Kerri hits him again with the pipe, and he starts to run away from her.*
TH: Kerri Thompson has sent Sorrow running away with that lead pipe!
JK: How in the hell is she able to attack him like that?
TH: No disqualifications.
JK: They should have made an exception for her.
*Sorrow runs over to the equipment storage area. Kerri charges at Sorrow with the pipe, but Sorrow sidesteps her, grabs her head, and rams her into the equipment. She hits it hard and falls down. Sorrow then stomps on her mercilessly. He then picks up Kerri and bodyslams her onto the floor. Sorrow then looks around and sees a roll of power cord laying around. He goes over to grab it and start unraveling it. After he has a good length of cord, Sorrow goes back to Kerri. He wraps the cord around her neck and starts choking her with it. The crowd boos as Kerri struggles to get out. She gets up onto her feet, but she can’t get away from Sorrow.*
TH: Good Gawd! He’s choking the life out of her!
JK: That’s what she gets for interfering.
*Kerri struggles to get the cord off her neck, but she starts fading. Sorrow puts added pressure on her as she fades. She falls to her knees and looks like she’s out of it. Suddenly, Rose comes up behind Sorrow with a long fluorescent light tube. He swings it into Sorrow’s back, and it smashes into a million pieces. Sorrow lets go of Kerri and goes flying into the equipment.*
TH: Good Gawd Almighty! Michael Rose to the rescue with that fluorescent light!
JK: Jesus! This has turned into CZW all of a sudden!
*The referee goes over to check on Sorrow. He touches Sorrow’s back and sees blood. There is a big cut on his back, bleeding not too badly but enough. He rushes over to the entranceway ramp and motions to Muffer.*
MM: Sorrow is bleeding. The match is now tied at two-to-two. The only way it can end is if someone makes his opponent say “I Quit!”
TH: Rose has evened it up. “I Quit” is the only way for the match to end.
JK: Dammit! That cut shouldn’t count. Rose’s face is as red as the flowers on the floor. That cut on Sorrow looks like a paper cut.
TH: Are you nuts? It looks pretty bad.
JK: Well, the ref is letting him continue.
TH: I’m guessing he wants to see a winner as badly as everyone else.
JK: Can’t blame him for that.
*Rose checks on Kerri, who indicates that she’s okay. Meanwhile, Sorrow is on the floor, holding his back. He gets up, and Rose pounces on him. Rose punches and kicks at Sorrow as Sorrow tries to get away. He makes it to the entrance way, but Rose grabs Sorrow, runs him to the pool for the Caribbean Death Match later, and rams him into the side of the pool. Rose then puts his foot on Sorrow’s throat and chokes him for a bit. He then lets go and grabs a table that’s been conveniently set up near the guardrail blocking the fans. He grabs it and sets it up in front of Sorrow. Rose picks up Sorrow and places him on the table. Rose then climbs up onto the pool, which has a cover over it. Rose then jumps off with a corkscrew moonsault, landing on Sorrow and crashing through the table. The crowd goes wild for that.*
TH: Corkscrew moonsault through the table. How much more punishment are these guys gonna dish out to each other.
JK: Boy, Michael Rose sure is lucky that table was placed there.
*Rose gets up. He then grabs Sorrow, but Howard George Hammond suddenly comes out of nowhere and attack Rose. He throws Rose into the side of the pool. He then grabs Rose and whips him into the sides of the entrance stage. He grabs Rose and rams his back into the metal stage over and over again.*
TH: Dammit! Where in the hell did he come from!?
JK: Yes! Howard George Hammond got away from Mark Masters. He’s gonna help Sorrow claim victory.
*As Hammond beats down on Rose, Mark Masters comes running out. He tackles Hammond and waylays him with several punches. Referees and security guards come out and grab Masters. They pull him off of Hammond, which allows Hammond to get up and attack Masters. They pull Hammond off of Masters and then drag them away.*
TH: Thank God! Mark Masters has come out to help Rose.
JK: Dammit! Where’s security!?
TH: Speak of the devil, referees and security are out to take them away.
JK: It’s about time these losers did their jobs.
*As Hammond and Masters are dragged away, Sorrow grabs Rose and drags him back to the ring. He punches and kicks at Rose a few times as they make their way to the ring. The ref follows. Once they get to the ringside area, Sorrow throws Rose into the other steel steps. Rose hits them shoulder first. Sorrow then charges at Rose, hitting him with a knee to the head against the steps. He then grabs Rose and throws him back into the ring. Sorrow walks over around the ring and grabs a steel chair. He and the ref reenter the ring, and Sorrow slams the chair’s edge onto Rose’s knee. Rose screams out in pain as Sorrow does that again and again and again.*
TH: Dear Gawd! Sorrow is slamming that chair onto Rose’s knee!
JK: He should have done that earlier! That’s how you get someone to say “I Quit!”
*Sorrow slams the chair onto Rose’s knee once more and then drops it to the mat. Sorrow then takes the mic from the ref.*
Sorrow: Quit right now, or else I’m gonna destroy that knee and force those words out of your mouth.
Rose: f*** you!
*Sorrow hits Rose with the mic and throws it back to the ref. Sorrow then grabs Rose by the injured leg and locks him in the Sorrow’s Grasp (Over the shoulder seated single leg Boston crab). Rose screams out in pain and struggles to get out of it, but he is trapped.*
TH: Sorrow’s Grasp! That’s the first time Sorrow has used that move!
JK: He’s desperate to get Rose to quit, and that might just do it.
*Rose keeps struggling, but Sorrow won’t let go. Soon, Sorrow sits down on Rose to put added pressure on the hold. The ref gets down to ask Rose.*
Ref: Do you wanna quit?
Rose: NO!
Ref: Are you sure!?
Rose: I’m not quitting!
*Suddenly, Kerri runs down, slides into the ring, grabs the chair, and slams it onto Sorrow’s back, causing him to let go of the hold. Sorrow goes down, and Kerri hits him with the chair a few times.*
TH: Kerri Thompson saves the day again!
JK: Dammit! The security guards take her away as well!
*Kerri lifts up the chair to hit Sorrow again, but he’s able to swing his leg into Kerri’s gut to stop her. She falls over to the ropes. Sorrow gets up. Kerri is able to recover and tries to hit him with the chair, but he grabs it, pulls it away from her, and rams it into her gut. He slams the chair onto her back and throws it down. Sorrow grabs Kerri, lifts her up, and drops her to the mat with The Path To Sorrow (Jumping thunderfire powerbomb).*
TH: The Path To Sorrow puts an end to Kerri’s assistance.
JK: About time!
*Sorrow stands over Kerri and taunts her. He then turns back around to Rose just in time to see Rose on his feet, holding the chair, and slamming it down onto his head. Sorrow falls back against the ropes and bounces off of them. Rose grabs him onto his shoulders and hits Sorrow with Kiss From A Rose (Go To Sleep), sending Sorrow falling onto the chair.*
TH: Kiss From A Rose! Sorrow is out!
JK: NO! How did he do that!?
TH: Kerri got him enough time to recover!
JK: Dammit!
*Rose goes over and wakes Kerri up. He then goes to the outside and grabs that steel chain Sorrow threw away earlier. He goes back to the ring, rolls Sorrow over onto his stomach, ties the chain around his feet, and then ties it around the bottom rope. Rose then grabs Sorrow’s arms and locks him in The Scent Of A Rose (Cattle Mutilation). Sorrow struggles to get out of it, but he can’t because of Rose tying the chain around his feet. The crowd cheers like crazy.*
TH: Scent Of A Rose to Sorrow!
JK: That’s not fair! He tied Sorrow to the rope with that chain!
TH: No disqualifications! He can do that!
JK: Dammit!
*Rose has the hold locked on for a good while. Kerri has finally recovered. She sees Rose applying the hold and goes to the outside. She goes under the ring and pulls out a kendo stick. Kerri then reenters the ring and goes over to Rose and Sorrow. She then grabs the mic from the ref.*
Kerri: You better quit, or Michael is gonna break your damn arms in that hold.
Sorrow: Never!
Kerri: Michael will maim you! Now, quit!
Sorrow: f*** you!
Kerri: QUIT!
*Suddenly, Kerri start hitting Sorrow’s back with the kendo stick, viciously focusing on the cut. Sorrow’s back turns red from the cut and the stick welting his back. He screams out in pain.*
Kerri: QUIT!
Sorrow: NO!
*She hits him again.*
Kerri: QUIT!
Sorrow: NO!
*She hits him again.*
Kerri: QUIT!
Sorrow: NO!
*She hits him again.*
Kerri: QUIT!
Sorrow: NO!
*She hits him again.*
Kerri: QUIT!
Sorrow: FINE! I QUIT!
*The crowd goes wild. Rose lets go. He and Kerri look shocked as his music plays*
MM: The winner of this match……MICHAEL ROSE!!!
TH: HE DID IT!
JK: I don’t believe it!
TH: Sorrow said I Quit!
JK: I just don’t believe it!
*Rose and Kerri finally celebrate. The ref gets the chain off of Sorrow, freeing him. And, he looks utterly defeated. Sorrow stands up. Rose and Kerri then go up to him.*
Rose: I just have to say, that was one hell of a fight. But, it’s over now. And, we had a deal. I won. So, take off that damn mask.
*Sorrow looks reluctant to do so. He hems and haws a bit, which forces the crowd to start chanting “Take It Off!” Eventually, he starts to untie the mask. Just as he’s about to finish, Sorrow grabs the mic.*
Sorrow: NEVER!
*Sorrow suddenly hits Rose with the mic and kicks him in the injured knee, knocking him down.*
TH: What the hell!? Is he reneging on the deal?
JK: I don’t blame him, but he agreed to those rules.
*Kerri tries to pull the mask off, but Sorrow grabs her by the neck and chokes her, pushing her back into the ropes. Suddenly, Kerri kicks Sorrow in the crotch. He lets go, doubling over, and Kerri hits him with Our Lips Are Sealed (A huge bitch slap followed by a reverse DDT).*
TH: Our Lips Are Sealed! That took down Sorrow!
JK: Dammit, man! You should have just taken off the mask! I don’t like it either, but you made a deal!
*Rose gets up and picks up Sorrow. He puts Sorrow onto his shoulders and hits him with another Kiss From A Rose. Rose then grabs Sorrow, and Kerri and him finish untying Sorrow’s mask. He starts struggling to stop them, but they soon get the mask off. The crowd goes wild. Sorrow, though, is able to cover his face and soon runs out of the ring.*
TH: Dammit! I wanted to see his face without the mask!
JK: Oh, let him have some dignity! He lost the match! He lost his mask! Don’t let him lose his honor!
*Rose and Kerri celebrate as Rose’s music plays again. More roses come down from the crowd as the fans cheer the victor.*
TH: Well, with that great moment…we must get to our main event and…what’s that? Apparently we have a promo from Jonathan Michaels before the match so I guess we should cut to him.
Normally, this is where I do a bunch of talking.
Talking about how Riggs is a dangerous lunatic who should be in a psych ward.
About how I still distrust Jordan Mac but I have a small amount of respect for him.
But no.
Tonight is not about talking.
It's about winning.
Jordan Mac wants to prove he's not a one hit wonder, The Comedian wants whatever the hell he wants.
Me, I'm a desperate man.
Desperate because of the rumors.
The rumors that new management is coming in, and while I would normally welcome fresh blood to get in here and clean up this place, the fact of the matter is that the new management hates my damn guts for some reason and wants me gone.
Some kind of personal vendetta that I honestly don't understand, but, you see, if I'm the champion, he can't get rid of me.
If I leave this company, it will be on MY terms.
So, like I said before, I need that belt more than anyone has ever needed something, and I will do whatever is neccesary to get it.
Because if I don't, I'm screwed.
And I don't want to go.
It's not my time yet.
So there's no fancy grandiose entrance for me tonight, it's all business, I have to focus on getting the job done.
Besides, the Foo Fighters are busy at the moment and Dave is still recovering.
Last yer, I was screwed over and humiliated, this year, nobody screws with Jonathan Michaels.
And, cut.
JK: So you are telling me that Jonathan knows who the purported new management (which would be fast since Jessica just quit before that last match) is before we know who it is? Either he has a mole in the inside or he is talking out of his ass!
TH: Jonathan has been known to have some very good sources so I could sense that he not be a fan of new management that he is hearing. Honestly, Jesse…you and I are normally the last to know so I wouldn’t be that quit to be critical of Jonathan on anything.
JK: You may have a point there.
TH: Anyway…with that interruption out of the way…we have a main event scheduled next and much like every other match, we have a video package highlighting what has led us to this moment.
*The video package begins with the finals of the Lord of the Ring Tourmanet (which Jonathan Michaels won against Jordan Mac); then the Spring Breakdown encounter where the world champion Gus Richlen beat Jonathan in a hard fought match only to lose the belt and his career to Evil M as he cashed in his Money in the Bank briefcase to win the belt; then the announcement that due to no-showing several events, Evil M is stripped of the title; the tournament at Summerfest to determine a new champion, which ultimately came down to Jonathan Michaels and Jordan Mac; then Jordan Mac winning a hard fought fight; then the next NiteRaw seeing the Comedian qualify due to stealing a DQ win over the champion due to a fake out where he made it look like Mac hit him with a chair; and ending finally the night where Jordan and Jonathan had to fight Bobby Riggs and TNT while knowing that they’ll be in the match to determine the winner.*
TH: A lot has happened since the last Gookermania main event and now it is time for this main event so let’s send it down to Michael Muffer in the ring.
*The bell rings and Michael is in the middle of the ring.*
MM: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and it is for the FAWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!!!
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome back, David Gilmour.
*David Gilmour and his band come out to play The Comedian’s music, "Brain Damage/Eclipse"*
The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path
The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You rearrange me 'til I'm sane
You lock the door and throw away the key
There's someone in my head but it's not me
And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
All that you touch and all that you see
All that you taste, all you feel
And all that you love and all that you hate
All you distrust, all you save
And all that you give and all that you deal
And all that you buy, beg, borrow or steal
And all you create and all you destroy
And all that you do and all that you say
And all that you eat and everyone you meet
And all that you slight and everyone you fight
And all that is now and all that is gone
And all that's to come and everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon
*The Comedian comes out to the boos of the crowd as another laser light show goes on around him. Riggs has on his red tights with his signature logo on them and black boots and is holding his signature rubber chicken. He then walks down to the ring, smiling the whole time. The Comedian then enters the ring, walks over to a corner, and stands on the second turnbuckle, holding up his rubber chicken.*
MM: Introducing first…at 6 foot 6 inches…weighing 270 lbs…from Los Angeles, CA… “THE COMEDIAN” BOBBY RIGGS.
TH: Here comes the first challenger….a man who got this spot through trickery and deceit.
JK: Hey, Eddie Guerrero did the same stuff to get ahead and no one complains that he did it.
TH: Eddie was also honest about his actions unlike this guy. Also Eddie was likeable.
JK: Hey, likability is in the eye of the beholder. Personally, I find Bobby Riggs very likeable.
*Jonathan Michaels comes out now with just a jacket and not even any smoke. He looks focused as he walks to the ring and enters it, all the while looking at The Comedian. It is obvious that the crowd likes Jonathan.*
MM: And his opponent…at 6 feet, 3 inches…weighing in at 240 pounds…from Los Angeles, California…he is the 2015 Lord of the Ring…JONATHAN MICHAELS!!!
TH: No special entrance, not even any smoke for Jonathan…definitely tells you that he has been focused on this and nothing else.
JK: Well, with the supposed opinion that new management is going to be against him, he definitely will have to.
TH: Definate do-or-die situation in his mind.
*Jordan Mac comes out from the back with a towel on his head, wearing sunglasses (as well as his usual gear), and the belt around his waist. He is not being followed by the Black Gold Crew as he slowly walks down the ramp. He enters the ramp and throws his towel to the crowd. He takes off the belt from his waist and raises it in the air as he looks at both men. A surprising thing happens as somehow Jordan Mac has now gotten half the crowd to cheer for him and he takes off his sunglasses.*
MM: And their opponent…at 6 feet, 3 inches…weighing in at 345 pounds…from Atlanta, Georgia…he is the FAWA World Heavyweight Champion…”BLACK GOLD” JORDAN MAC!!!
TH: The champion is here and I am shocked not only by the zero entrance and the lack of the Black Gold Crew, but suddenly it seems like fans have turned around and liked him.
JK: Disagree with the no Black Gold Crew in his corner and you know damn well I don’t care about the fans’ opinion. But I really am extremely disappointed with him on no special entrance. This is Gookermania and he is the world champion!!! He should have some glitz and glamor for his entrance.
TH: King, it is obvious that he is not going to allow the whole big show feel to affect him in this match. He has surprisingly changed a lot during this whole phase of becoming champion.
*Jordan Mac doesn’t take his eyes off his opponents as he hands his world title to the referee. The ref holds up the belt and rings the bell.
TH: This is the MAIN EVENT!!! All three men are prepared and let’s see who becomes the world champion.
World Heavyweight Championship Triple Threat Match
“Black Gold” Jordan Mac vs. Jonathan Michaels vs. “The Comedian” Bobby Riggs
