CC: We're about to find out, let's go to the ring.
RA: Introducing first, she is one half of O-Zone, Tyger Lilly!
“Don't Ya” by the PussyCat Dolls begins blaring through the speakers as the lights dim and a strobe light begins flickering at the entrance way. Smoke fills the Entrance. Smoke Clears the air and Tyger Lilly stands there with her hands on her hips. Japanese Fans applaud slightly before she starts to make her way to the ring. She stops half way down, and looks around briefly before she makes her way to the ring. She slides in and waits for her partner.
RA: Introducing next, the other half of O-Zone, the Hot Shot Diva, Brooke StarWind!
The lights dim as “Fighter” blares through the arena. The fans erupt in cheers as Brooke walks out on the stage and raises her right arm up, putting her fist into the rocker pose as blue and pink pyros shoot up from both sides of her. Brooke heads down the ramp, still rocking out to her music as she breaks into a sprint and slides into the ring. Still on her hands and knees, she starts to head-bang as blue pyros explode from the turnbuckles. The fans continue cheering as she stands up and goes to the corner, where she gets on the middle rope, does some more head-banging to her music and then lifts her right hand back up in the fist. She jumps down, goes to the opposite turnbuckle, gets on the middle rope, and does the same again. She jumps down and walks over to her corner where Lilly stands as they await oWo's entrance.
RA: Their opponents, the oWo!
“Back in Black” hits as Dennis Mann, Tony Ruiz, and Roland Peck walk out onto the stage. Peck has a roll of toilet paper in his hand as they make their way down to the ring, pointing and laughing at the ladies in the ring. Peck slides in under the ropes as Ruiz steps into the ring. Dennis stands on the apron and then steps over the top rope. The oWo stand in the center of the ring as pyros shoot from the turnbuckles.
CC: Why does Roland have a roll of toilet paper in his hand?
TO: They do call em Greaseball, use ya imagination.
CC: No thanks, I think I'll pass on that one.
Ruiz and Brooke start things off as Ruiz looks her over. Brooke yells for him to come on as he just laughs. Brooke walks right up to him and just hits a hard right to his jaw. Tony staggers back a few steps, holding his face. He quickly shakes it off and runs at her, she falls to the mat and brings him down with a drop toe hold. She quickly floats over and hooks in a side headlock.
CC: Strong start on StarWind's part.
Ruiz gets to his feet and pushes Brooke off, sending her into the ropes. She bounces off and gets leveled by a clothesline. Ruiz looks over at his corner and laughs at Brooke who quickly gets to her feet. The two lock up as Ruiz easily gains the strength advantage by body slamming her. Ruiz mounts her and puts on a simple choke as he yells smack in her face. The referee pulls him off after a five count. Ruiz pulls her up by the hair, but Brooke gets an elbow into his gut. As Ruiz doubles over, Brooke takes a few steps back, runs toward him, leaps into the air and delivers a knife-edge chop to the back of the head.
TO: Jus when Ruiz thinks he's got da advantage, Brooke takes it back.
CC: I just wonder how much longer she can keep it.
Brooke sends Ruiz into the ropes, and catches him with a spinning back elbow. The fans cheer as Brooke climbs to the top rope. She waits for Ruiz to get to his feet and jumps off with a cross body, but Tony catches her and delivers a fall away slam.
CC: This match just keeps going back and forth.
Ruiz kicks Brooke a few times before pulling her up and dragging her to his corner. Still holding her arm, Ruiz tags in Peck. Roland gets in and hits a stiff kick right to Brooke's side. Ruiz gets out of the ring as StarWind holds her side. Peck hits two more kicks and then levels her with a spinning roundhouse kick.
TO: Dat could not of felt good.
CC: I doubt it did.
Roland pulls Brooke up and sends her into the corner. He follows up with a few more stiff kicks before sending her down in the corner with a twisting back kick. With Brooke slumped in the corner, Roland runs to the opposite corner and motions for the Bronco Buster. He runs and jumps just as Brooke moves out of the way, sending Peck groin first into the buckles.
CC: Quick thinking just saved StarWind from a very uncomfortable situation.
Brooke grabs Roland and whips him into the opposite turnbuckle. She runs and hits a cartwheel, springing back elbow followed by a bulldog out of the corner. Brooke goes for the cover.
1.
2.
CC: Ruiz just made the save there.
Ruiz smacks Brooke on the back of her head before leaving the ring, giving Peck a change to hit a drop kick to her back. She falls against the ropes, resting on the middle, throat first. Roland grabs her by her waist, lifts her up so she is now bent over, and he gives her a few quick spanks to her ass.
TO: Dis just got good!
CC: Pervert!
Brooke immediately shoves Roland back, rubbing her ass. Peck laughs, winking at her as Brooke explodes and spears him down. She begins laying in rights and lefts before picking him up and goes for a kick, but is caught by Peck. Roland laughs but is quickly met by an enziguirie by Brooke. With Peck down, StarWind quickly leaps to the top rope as the fans cheer.
CC: Brooke could be looking to go for her Stargazer moonsault!
TO: GO BABES GO!
Brooke leaps off for the Stargazer but Peck rolls out of the way. Brooke lands hard as Roland gets to his feet and starts laughing at her. Suddenly a look of panic overwhelms his face as he turns and tags in Dennis Mann. He slides out of the ring, grabs his roll of toilet paper, and dashes up the aisle, rushing into the back.
CC: Where is he going?
TO: My guess is dat he has some other business needin tendin to.
CC: GROSS!
Denn-Mann looks at Brooke as she pulls herself to her feet. He motions for her to go tag in Lilly but she charges at him anyways. He shoves her off and motions for her to tag Lilly in. Brooke shakes her head no and runs at him again, this time he grabs her by her head and flings her into her corner. She goes to run at him again but Lilly stops her and tags herself in. Brooke reluctantly gets out of the ring as Denn-Mann grins at Tyger.
CC: Th-Size wants to run right over Lilly.
TO: Poor girl.
Lilly runs at Dennis who moves to the side and sends her crashing into the corner. He grabs her arm and whips her against the ropes, she comes back and gets lifted up into the air and brought back down to the mat with a huge sidewalk slam. He waits for her to get up and then levels her with a big boot. He goes to his corner and talks with Ruiz as Lilly pulls herself up in the corner. Dennis runs in and hits a back elbow. With Lilly pinned in the corner, Denn-Mann rams a few more back elbows into the side of her head.
TO: Lilly is getting destroyed here.
CC: She needs to make the tag.
Dennis walks away as Tyger falls to the mat. She crawls towards her corner as Brooke holds her arm out for the tag. Dennis goes to break up the tag but right as Lilly's hand was about to tag her partner, Brooke pulls her arm back and drops down off the apron.
TO: What da heck?
CC: What is Brooke doing, Lilly just went for a tag and her partner walked away. What are we witnessing here?
Lilly looks on in disbelief as Brooke slowly walks backwards up the ramp. She stops halfway as Dennis Mann hits Lilly in the back of the head and sets her up for the Train Wreck. He lifts her up and drives her to the mat with a huge powerbomb.
CC: It's over!
TO: Not yet, StarWind might come back.
Denn-Mann tags in Tony who just stares out at Brooke who slowly starts heading back to the ring. Ruiz pulls Lilly up and gets her ready for the Other Edge. Brooke stops at ringside and puts her hands on the apron. Ruiz hits his move and goes for the cover as Brooke jumps up on the apron and goes to get in the ring.
TO: TOLD YA! Brooke Baby is gonna make the save!
CC: She better hurry.
The referee counts.
1.
Brooke enters the ring.
2.
Brooke is right there about to make the save.
3!
Brooke shrugs her shoulders and slides out of the ring as “Back in Black” plays.
RA: Your winners the oWo!
CC: I can't believe it, not only did Brooke leave her partner, she had a chance to save her, and then let her get pinned. She just shrugged it off like it was no big deal.
TO: Brooke must have her reasons babes.
oWo celebrate some before leaving the ring as Brooke stands far off to the side on the stage. Once they disappear into the back, Brooke walks to the center of the stage with a microphone in hand.
Brooke: I know I probably shocked a lot of ya'll here tonight, and I may have upset some of yen's, but I feel only the smallest hint of sadness over what has happened here tonight. My sadness comes from the fact that this HAD to happen here tonight to someone who was, in the past, such an innovator in the business. Tyger Lilly, you've opened the way for women in this industry like no other star. You made this company what it has become today. And THAT is why I had to do it. I may have betrayed ya here tonight, but you betrayed me, this federation, and the fans by yer actions with Sewaside. I am disgusted by your actions. We were supposed to be a team, but this is the first I've seen ya since before HeatWave. Ya call yerself my partner? I call ya a traitor and a loser. From the beginning it was yer idea for us to team together, yet it hasn't seemed like ya want to put much effort into this team. O-Zone was yer idea, not mine, I just went along with it cause I thought being yer partner would be a good career move. Turns out I was wrong, as of right now, O-Zone is dead and I am proud to be the one who killed it! I decided I want to associate with someone who knows how to win and who can be trusted, unlike you.
CC: Who would that be?
TO: I got mes a guess.
CC: Who?
“Trip Like I Do” blares as Mike Sensation walks out.
TO: Dats who.
The crowd lightly applauds for Mike as he walks over to Brooke and grabs a handful of her hair. He pulls her head back and plants a very passionate kiss on her lips. He grins at the crowd as Brooke puts her arm around him and wipes her lip with her finger. They turn and disappear into the back.
CC: This is not the first time we will see Mike Sensation tonight. He faces Sewaside later.
TO: Battle to see who is on th road to greatness.
CC: Meanwhile Mike's partner Slayback will be facing Havoc in an attempt to get back on the winning track & provide somewhat of a preview of their tag-team match which will take place neXt GP.
TO: Da oWo proved they are contenders, & neXt GP we will find out if Ego-Driven or Gavelon & Havoc are contendas.
BACKSTAGE
The scene opens up in the locker room area as Doug Gavelon helps Havoc get ready for his match.
Gavelon: You ready to go man?
Havoc: Hell yeah! Let’s get this show on the road.
Gavelon: Yeah, it’s almost time. I hope Tiffany gets here before your match starts. She said she wanted to tell me something tonight.
Havoc: Do you know what it is?
Gavelon: No, but I have my ideas.
Just then, their door is heard being busted open. Doug and Havoc look up with a shocked look on their faces.
Tiffany: Doug…
The camera pans over to show Tiffany standing in the doorway. Her clothes are torn all over and she is bruised and bloody.
Tiffany: …why?
She collapses on the floor as both men rush over to her.
Gavelon: Oh God! Somebody get some help! Put that camera down and help me!
The camera man does that and goes to get help.
Gavelon: Havoc, go on. I’m gonna stay here.
Havoc: Of course man and I swear to you we’re gonna find out who did this.

Scooter: That’s right Candice, I’m here with Tag Team Champion and Big Gold Champion GRENDEL who has a major announcement.
GRENDEL: That’s right Scooter.
Scooter: But I already broke the story to the world that you love Nachos and Cheese.
GRENDEL laughs…..
GRENDEL: No that’s not the big announcement. But I do love that cheesy goodness.
Scooter: I bet it has to do with the tag team titles.
GRENDEL: You could say that.
Scooter: Roomer has it that Shawn Stryker isn’t going to be a part of the GoldPush World Tour, so if you need a partner to defend those tag titles, you’ve got a friend in me.
GRENDEL laughs again….

Scooter: Well I tried, Candice, Toby, back to you.
BACK TO RING
RA: Introducing first, from Reno, Nevada, he is known as ‘Simply Perfect’, SLAYBACK!
Pyros explode on the stage as ‘Nailed to the Cross’ blares through the arena. After what seems like a moment too long, Slayback struts out from the back, his hands in the air. He spins on the ramp, posing to the fans, but receiving only boos. Ignoring them he jogs to the ring and slides in. He climbs to the turnbuckle and raises both hands above his head.
RA: His opponent, from Brockway, Pennsylvania, weighing in tonight at 205 pounds, HAVOC!
The lights go out in the arena as gold spotlights shine around the entranceway and "Call of the Ktulu" begins to play. Suddenly, the lights shoot back on but their color is silver and "Back in Black" begins playing. Soon, Havoc comes out through the entranceway with a large smile on his face. He walks down to the ring, gets on the apron, jumps over the top rope and holds his arms up in the air.
CC: This is a small preview to their tag match which will be neXt GP when we go down under. Here we go!
TO: Dis one gonna be good & dat would be good to go down under on you.
CC: TOBY!!!
TO: yea say my name, say my name!
CC: Stop it. Let's get to the action.
TO: Dat's what I was thinkin about Candy-beby!
The two men circle each other, waiting for someone to make the first move. Slayback signals for a test of strength to which Havoc complies. However, as Havoc puts his right hand up, Slayback kicks him in the gut and goes for Perfection Personified, but Havoc is close enough to the ropes to hold on and Slayback drops down to the mat. Havoc pulls Slayback up and goes for his finisher, Shut Up, but Slayback hits him with a back body drop.
CC: Both men going for their finisher early and both men have it blocked.
TO: All it takes is one mistake and dat Havoc boy’s gonna lose dis thing.
CC: I take it you’re picking Slayback?
TO: Ya’ll keep thinkin dat.
Slayback rushes at Havoc with a clothesline but Havoc ducks and sends Slayback into the corner with a chop. Havoc grabs Slayback and Irish whips him to the opposite corner. Havoc runs at him, Slayback moves, but Havoc leaps and lands on the middle rope. Havoc leaps off with a crossbody but turns it into a twisting hurracanrana on Slayback. Slayback gets right back up and runs into a dropkick from Havoc. This causes Slayback to slide under the bottom rope to the outside.
CC: Looks like Havoc is proving to be a little bit tougher then everyone thought.
TO: He’s just been lucky so far.
CC: Then why is Slayback outside the ring?
TO: He’s just gatherin his thoughts. Just watch, dis Slayback boy ain’t done yet.
As Slayback walks back and forth on the outside, Havoc gets a running start and goes for a somersault plancha. However, Slayback sees him coming and moves out of the way.
TO: I told ya. Now’s when Slayback shows everyone who’s da man.
Slayback lays into Havoc with a few boots to the back of the head before pulling him up by the hair. Still holding the hair, Slayback whips Havoc hard into the security rail as the referee continues counting both men out.
TO: Slayback aint afraid to do whats gotta be done.
Slayback throws Havoc back into the ring while he stands on the apron. Slayback jumps over the ropes and lands a knee to the back of Havoc’s neck. As Havoc starts to get up, Slayback gets a running start and nails Havoc with a swinging neckbreaker.
TO: Now he be workin’ dat neck bone.
CC: Looks like Slayback is going for the cover.

NO! Havoc kicks out!
TO: I’m tellin you, it’s only a matter of time before Slayback puts em away.
Slayback gets up and begins signaling for his finisher again.
TO: I told ya, here it comes.
As Havoc struggles to get to his feet, Slayback lays in wait. Havoc is slowly making his way up but sees Slayback and quickly springs to his feet and throws out a wild superkick which connects and lays out Slayback.
CC: Yeah! There went Havoc sending Slayback to the canvas.
TO: Yeah, but dat boy is already too weak ta make the cover.
CC: Shut Up!
TO: He can’t hit it. He’s still down.
CC: No, Toby, I’m telling you to shut up and watch the match.
TO: Wut do you tink I’m doin’?
CC: Cheerleadering for Slayback. Havoc just made a great desperation counter and laid out Slayback and you can’t even give him credit and respect.
TO: Respect is earned.
Havoc gets back up and mocks Slayback signaling for his move. Then, as Slayback get up, Havoc hits an ace crusher.
TO: Dat thievin bastard! He just stole Slayback’s move.
CC: Actually, Toby, Havoc calls that move The Silencer. Maybe he should try that move on you. Cover by Havoc!
1…

NO! Slayback gets the shoulder up!
Havoc drags Slayback over to one corner and begins to climb up. Havoc comes off the top rope and nails Slayback with a corkscrew moonsault.
CC: This could be it.

Slayback gets up and begins to climb the ropes.
TO: Haha. Looks like my boy, Slayback, is gonna show Havoc what a real moonsault looks like, if you weel.
As Slayback get to the top rope, Havoc gets up and nails a forearm shot to Slay’s back. Havoc climbs up with him and gets him in a torture rack position.
TO: Dat idiot. He can’t win by makin him submit up there.
CC: I don’t think that’s what he has in mind, Toby.
Suddenly, Havoc jumps off with Slayback on his shoulders and turns Slay’s body so that he nails him with a modified piledriver.
CC: SUPER PSYCHO DRIVER!
TO: Dat boy’s sychotic alright.
CC: Cover!
1…..
2……
NO! Slayback just gets his foot on the ropes!
Havoc has a look of shock on his face as he begins to yell at the referee. This gives Slayback enough time to recover and catch Havoc with an inverted DDT, which leaves both men down.
CC: You’ve got to admit that you’re surprised how much Slayback has been dominated in this match. It’s been all Havoc.
TO: Meybe but Slayback has taken it all and he’s still fighting. I don’t know what else Havocs got in em.
CC: Slayback has taken it like a champ, I’ll give you that.
Slayback slides out of the ring, pulling Havoc by the head. Havoc is on his back and Slayback positions him so that his neck is on the apron, with his head hanging over. Slayback delivers a series of elbows down onto the head of Havoc.
TO: Back to da neck.
As the referee’s count reaches eight, Slayback climbs onto the apron and ducks half way into the ring, breaking it. From the apron, Slayback delivers a dropkick to Havoc. Havoc grabs his neck in pain and rolls back into the ring. Slayback slides in after him. Slayback again drags Havoc by the hair, but this time drapes him, throat first on the bottom rope. As the ref counts to 5 for the DQ, Slayback stands on Havoc’s back, pulling the top rope to give even more leverage. Slayback breaks at 4.
CC: He sure seems to be slowing the pace down now.
Slayback hits the far rope and runs at Havoc, crashing down on his back as he still lays in the ropes. Havoc bounces off and falls back on the mat, holding his throat. Slayback goes for the pin.
1…..

Kickout.
Slayback wastes no time and pulls Havoc to his feet. Slayback whips him to the rope and attempts a back elbow. Havoc ducks and hit the far side rope. Havoc comes back as if going for a clothesline on Slayback but Slayback side steps and grabs Havoc, propelling him over the top rope. Havocs head gets caught in between the ropes though, and he dangles on the outside, trying to keep his feet on the apron to relive the pressure
CC: Oh no, how terrible, Slayback has hung Havoc between the top two ropes.
TO: And wut a great technicnical move that was.
CC: One, that wasn’t technicinical at all and two, there’s no such thing as technicical at all, it’s technical.
TO: Dat’s what I said.
CC: How is it that you still have a job?
The referee helps pull the ropes apart and Havoc makes it to the apron, sliding his head out of the ropes. As he stands there, back to the ring, holding his throat, Slayback leaps up and connects with a perfect dropkick that sends Havoc flying off the apron and landing across the guardrail. Slayback sits on the top turnbuckle and instructs the referee to count Havoc out.
CC: Slayback really turning on the heat. How nasty of him to do that to Havoc.
TO: That’s why we love em.
CC: What are you talking about, everyone hate’s Slayback.
TO: Not da cool people.
Havoc slides into the ring at the count of 8 and Slayback moves in. He pulls Havoc up and hooks him for a piledriver. Havoc flips up as Slayback tries to lift him for a piledriver and delivers a quick hurricanranna. Havoc, holding his neck, signals for the end.

CC: Havoc going for the Shut Up! Perhaps as a jab at Mike Sensation
TO: Dats disrespectful!
CC: It’s his own move, how is it disrespectful?
TO: Just call da match.
Havoc has Slayback hooked, and cheers to the crowd. Slayback thrusts his head upward and low blows Havoc with the back of his head. Havoc releases Slayback and grabs his groin, turning away. Slayback steps forward quickly and leaps into the air, connecting with the Perfection Personified. He makes the cover.

TO: Yes bebe, that’s perfection.

Nailed to the Cross plays as Slayback poses in the turnbuckle. Slayback hops down and looks at Havoc who has barely moved, holding his neck on the mat. Slayback drops with an elbow to the back of the next and follows it up with a continuous series of right hands to the back of the head of Havoc.
CC: This is gone too far. Slayback is such a bad sport & he barely won JUST BARELY.
TO: He’s passionate, dat’s all.
CC: Passionate? This is brutality and unprofessional behavior.
TO: Remember dat time you went to that WpW autograph signin at that bar in Memphis and ended up getting so trashed dat you rode da mechanical bull naked? Now DAT is unprofessional.
CC: …. You… promised you wouldn’t bring that up.
RA: Your winner Slayback!
From the back comes Gavelon sprinting toward the ring. He slides in and, as Slayback turns to see him, tackles Slayback off of Havoc and lays into him with a series of blows. Gavelon helps Havoc up and together they stomp Slayback.
TO: How unfair and savage is dis!
CC: Turnabout is fair play.
‘Trip Like I Do’ blares through the arena and Mike Sensation slowly marches toward the ring, his sledgehammer in hand.
TO: Here comes da pain.
CC: You’d think he’d hurry to help his partner.
TO: Gotta make it more dramatic.
Havoc and Gavelon turn and face Mike, looking ready to fight. Mike stops at the edge of the ring, pointing to his sledgehammer and yelling into the ring at Havoc and Gavelon. Slayback, meanwhile, has made it to his feet. He runs out from the far side ropes, going for a double clothesline on Havoc and Gavelon. The two turn and see him and grab him in a form of a double hip toss. They propel Slayback in a flip right out of the ring and onto Mike Sensation! The crowd goes wild.
CC: Yes, that’ll teach them.
TO: Now dey just made Mike more madder.
The crowd claps loudly as Havoc and Gavelon mock Slayback and Sensation in the ring. Mike quickly gets back to his feet but attends to Slayback as he continues to yell up into the ring. As Slayback finally makes it to his feet with Mike’s aid, Mike advances toward the ring. Slayback grabs his arm and pulls him back The two talk for a minute and then turn and head toward the back. The Japanese fans hiss loudly. Mike stops and turns back toward the ring from the top of the ramp. With a disgusted look he waves off the ring like he doesn’t care and the two head to the back. Havoc and Gavelon continue to celebrate in the ring, with Havoc holding his neck.
CC: Good match, and the EgoManiacs show their true colors in running for the hills.
TO: Dey didn’t run nowhere. Dey just have a plan. And der Ego-Driven, not Ego Maniacs.
CC: I wasn’t calling them by their name, just describing their personalities.

BACKSTAGE
The scene goes to the dressing rooms where Drifter and Brooke are walking through the back hallway. They stop short bumping into Bud Sinclair, father of GRENDEL.
Bud: Sorry to hear about your dad, kid. I'm sure he was a good man and a good father.
Drifter: Yeah, he was a good father. Especially seeing as how he didn't abandon me until I got some fame behind me then follow me all the way to Japan to try to steal my spotlight.
Bud: What's that supposed to mean, kid?
Drifter: My dad was a good man. He wasn't some deadbeat washed up has-been following his son around and getting remarried in his late fifties.
Bud: Look Trekker, I know that you've had some rough times over the last couple of weeks, but you really need to back off. I'm going to let this slide because of your mood right now.
Drifter grabs Sinclair by the collar and pulls him close getting nose to nose with him.
Drifter: You are going to "let this slide". You think I'm really worried about some deadbeat old man.
Trekker gives Bud a slight push backwards into the fence. Bud grabs Drifter by his shirt just as Brooke hits him with a folding metal chair.
Drifter: Let this slide, bitch.
Drifter kicks Bud a few times, rips his shirt off him, and turn him over. He pulls out his can of green spraypaint and paints a big XL on his back.
Drifter: You want to try to prove your a good father, Sinclair? Send your overgrown son this message. Tell him not to bother showing up at the next Goldpush. I'm going to be the first man to ever hold the Major League and WPW World titles at the same time. If he doesn't like that, tell him to meet me at the show next week. The address is on your back, old man.
The cameras cut back to Toby and Candace at the announcers table.
CC: That was a dispicable display of frustration from Rhemses Trekker.
TO: Wasn't a nice thing to do either.
CC: I understand losing a parent can be tough, but that was uncalled for.
TO: He just sent a memo to Da' Mean. A memo on da' back of Bud Seenclair.

The entire arena is dark, with swinging lights just above the WpWTron. "Break Stuff" by Limp Bizkit begins playing over the WPW pa system. Miller walks out in black & red pants with a red shirt over the shirt he wears a zip up ring jacket with "Miller" on the back. He looks at the audience at the top of the stage and the outside of the entrance ramp lights up on fire, so that Miller is walking with fire surrounding him, but it does not phase him. He continues down the ramp, when he hits the apron closest to the entranceway, he jumps off the apron back onto the floor, and all four ring posts light up for a few seconds, then Miller enters and sits on one of the turnbuckles waiting for Rhemses Trekker to make his appearance.
Roxy: Ladies and gentlemen Heeennnnrrryyy w. Miilllleeerrrr. And his opponent in this World Heavyweight Contender tournament match...
Roxy is interrupted by Brooke Trekker stepping into the ring from behind. She grabs the microphone out of Roxy's hand.
Brooke: I'm sorry, Roxy but seeing as how you are the WPW announcer and my husband is the Major League champion, we've hired our own announcer.
Brooke ushers Roxy out of the ring.
Brooke: Announcing my husband's entrance will be an old friend of the family, and one of the last Major League commentators in it's existance. Arliss Taylor.
Arliss Taylor steps out onto the rampway and makes his way to the ring. Brooke hands him the microphone, and steps out waiting on her husband at ringside.
"Firestarter" by Prodigy begins playing as Rhemses Trekker steps out onto the ramp. He stops to hold the Major League:XL World Championship above his head. Points towards it and then himself.
CC: Looks like Drifter had his own plans for his ring announcer.
TO: Long as dis' Arliss Tayla' doesn't get in my cool ade, I gots no beef.
Arliss: Ladies and gentlemen of Japan, Major League Wrestling is proud to present it's XL World Heavyweight Champion, and leader of what is now being called "The Black Parade", Drriiifffterrr Rheemmmmsssesss Trrrreeeekeeerrrr.
Drifter makes his way slowly towards the ring to a choral of boos. He stops to see if Henry Miller is going to approach and then slides in under the ring. Arliss Taylor steps out of the ring as the referee calls for the bell.
CC: This should really be a great match. That is if Brooke Trekker doesn't get involved and it's a clean one.

The bell rings and Drifter and Miller start the match slowly with a lockup. Miller sends Drifter down with a clothesline! Trekker gets up but is met with a tackle to gut! Henry Miller stomps on Drifter repeatedly. Henry Miller is quickly wearing Rhemses out and now picks the opponent up...
CC: Some powerful stomps by Henry W. Miller early in the match. It looks like he came here to fight.
TO: We aint seen what Drifta' can do though.
Henry W. Miller goes for an ankle lock, but Trekker counters it with a kick to Miller's chest. As Drifter hops to his feet, he ducks a clothesline from Miller. Henry runs past Drifter and turns to be met by a spear to the kidney.
CC: What a spear, that'll slow Henry Miller down a notch or two.
Drifter walks over to the fallen Henry Miller and executes a camel clutch. The referee checks Miller's arm. He raises it slightly on the third. Trekker is forced to break the hold. Rhemses walks over to the corner and begins talking with Brooke until Henry makes his way to his feet. Trekker and Miller square off again with another lockup, this time Drifter turning it into an armbar. Drifter slowly twists on Miller's arm and wrists, then throws him into the turnbuckle.
TO: Trekka' is controlling dis' match now.
CC: He's giving Miller way too long to catch his breath though. He should stay on him.

Miller walks over to the ropes, bounces off, and hits Rhemses with a elbowdrop to the forehead. Henry picks the ML champ up from the mat. Drifter retaliates with a punch to Miller's stomach, then another to the face....another...another. Trekker grabs Miller by the hair and throws him out of the ring. Drifter walks over to the referee and begins arguing so that Brooke can get in a few stomps on Miller before throwing him back into the ring.
CC: Any match that Drifter and Brooke are in is practically two on one.
