EWCL
White Stripes 'Seven Nation Army' blares into life as scenes of EWCL bedlam flash across the scene, bathed in blood red, black and gold.
Im gonna fight em off
A seven nation army couldnt hold me back
Theyre gonna rip it off
Taking their time right behind my back
And Im talking to myself at night
Because I cant forget
Back and forth through my mind
Behind a cigarette
And the message coming from my eyes
Says leave it alone
Dont want to hear about it
Every single ones got a story to tell
Everyone knows about it
From the Queen of England to the hounds of hell
And if I catch it coming back my way
Im gonna serve it to you
And that aint what you want to hear,
But thats what Ill do
And the feeling coming from my bones
Says find a home
Im going to Wichita
Far from this opera for evermore
Im gonna work the straw
Make the sweat drip out of every pore
And Im bleeding, and Im bleeding, and Im bleeding
Right before the lord
All the words are gonna bleed from me and I will think
No more
And the stains coming from my blood
Tell me go back home

…EWCL Insurgence is on the air…
Neil Down: I wonder why you sound happy about the merge.
DT: Why?
ND: Because you are probably the first one they fire.
(slap-ouch).
DT: And what makes you think that you can keep your job?
ND: I think my 3 Holy Shit Awards speak for themselves, Dean.
John Pilchard: He does have a point there, Dean. What is gonna happen to us when the merge goes through?
DT: Well guys, I am a professional and right now I think we have to talk about tonights matches. Not about whats gonna happen to our jobs.
ND: Yeah, you are right. And besides we can talk about that during the commercial breaks.
DT: ....right......Well anyway tonight in the main event we have Logan Darkholme who faces an old nemesis of him called Shadowcast.
JP: They call him The Talentkiller. And he already proved that name. Last week he attacked Curtis Wilkes and Jason East. I am not sure if East is in the building, but we can say for sure that Wilkes will be out of action for a while. He is severely injured after that attack by Shadowcast.
ND: You know, what I don't get though is that Shadowcast gets a title shot right away. Its only his first official match in the EWCL.
JP: So you understand then that Nicko has issues with Cazzo's booking? You get it now!!
DT: Hey, hey, take it easy............Other matches we got for you are Scott Monroe taking on Drone, Stephen Jackson and Javier Vasquez versus Jesus Van Dangerous and Nick Dangerous. But to start off we got Jay Masters vs. Jason East vs. Damien.
DT: What can be said about this match. Masters was pretty quiet after he defeated Neil at Dazed and Confused. He also never said a word about Aaron Gold who struck him in the head with an award. Then we have Jason East, who was on a winning streak. He even earned a #1 contenderspot for the Prime Time Title. But last week that winning streak got stopped by Shadowcast who interfered in his match with Curtis Wilkes. Finally we have Damien, who had a couple of hard matches with Logan Darkholme the last couple of weeks.
JP: Its gonna be a tough match here I think.
ND: As long as Masters loses, I don't care who wins.
(slap-ouch).
(Highway to Hell by AC/DC plays and out comes Jay Masters. The crowd starts to boo once they see him. Masters makes it to ringside and enters the ring).
(Stone the Crow by Down plays but there is noone to be seen. There is no sight of Jason East. The music starts for a second time, but again there is no sign of Jason East).
(Bodies by Drowning Pool blares over the PA system and Damien appears from behind the curtains. Dante joins him as the two make it to ringside. Damien slides in the ring and Dante stays on the outside).
DING DING DING
DT: So I guess its only gonna be Damien and Masters. No news about Jason East, but I expect that it has to do something with last week when Shadowcast attacked him. But now back to this match. Damien and Masters circle eachother for a couple of seconds until they lock up. Damien gets Masters in a side headlock and throws him into the ropes. Masters comes off and Damien with a shoulderblock and Jay goes down to the mat. He gets back up immediately though. Damien grabs him by the arm and irish whips him into the ropes again. Masters comes off and this time Damien leapfrogs over him. Masters hits the ropes, but he holds on to them. Damien wasn't expecting that and Masters catches him by surprise and comes in with a clothesline that almost takes Damiens head off.
JP: These two already had a rivalry ever since Damien stepped into the EWCL. I remember that they went for eachother in that Battle Royal a while ago. Now Masters seems in control as he picks up Damien and hands out a couple of backhand chops. Damien stumbles backwards into the ropes and Masters runs in and knees him to the midsection. He then sends Damien into the opposite ropes. Damien comes off and Masters with a spinebuster to take him down. And Masters going for the first cover of this match. He hooks the leg....

ND: Damien is stunned right now and Masters turns him around and whips him into the opposite corner. Damien flies in hard backfirst and Masters follows in hot pursuit. He comes in, but Damien moves out of the way just in time!!...And Masters goes chest first into the turnbuckles!!.....Damien grabs him from behind and ...German suplexes him to the mat!! Masters is layed out and Damien goes to the second rope. He gets on and then jumps off for an elbow drop on Masters. He hit it right and goes for the cover....

DT: But thats not it yet. Masters was able to kick out of it here. Damien brings him to his feet now and kicks him into the stomache. He irish whips him, but Masters reverses the whip. Damien comes off the ropes, but he slides through Masters his legs. He gets up behind Masters, but Jay saw it coming and he ducks the forearm, and grabs Damien and executes a T-Bone suplex!!....He picks up Damien right away and lifts him up and delivers backsuplex!! Damien took that one on the neck!! Viscious!! Oh man!!....Damien is layed out now and Masters going for another cover attempt...Can he do it this time? He hooks the leg....
ONE

KICKOUT..........Nope, it is yet another kickout by Damien.
JP: Masters is not too happy about it and he drags Damien to his feet. He brings him over to the corner and starts to ramm his head into the topturnbuckle again...1.....2.....3....but Damien blocks it, elbows Masters and reverses it and begins to ramm Masters his head into the topturnbuckle!! Masters had that one coming I suppose....1.......2.........3..........4...........5............6..............7.............8................9................10..........This time it is Masters who is stunned. He stumbles out of the corner now. Damien climbs to the topturnbuckle.....and .....does a double axe handle to take Masters down to the mat!!!...Jay is with his back on the mat and Dammien goes for the win here....

KICKOUT!!
ND: A kickout by Masters. Dammit!!......Damien is not losing focus though and he bends down to pick up Masters.....but Masters pokes Damien in the eyes. Damien is blind for a moment.....Masters takes advantage of that and he rolls Damien up for the pin....
ONE
TWO
TH....KICKOUT!!.....Ooooh that was a close call there. Fortunately Damien was able to kick out of that one. Masters picks Damien up and uppercuts him. Damien who still feels the effects of that poke to the eyes, still doesn't really see where he is. Masters then grabs him and bodyslams him to the mat again.
DT: Masters lifts Damien up from the mat and kicks him into the gut. He then hits the ropes....but Dante grabs Masters by his feet when he goes into the ropes!!...Masters is stuck and Damien comes in....and he dropkicks Masters right into the midsection!! Dante lets go of Masters his feet and Damien drags Masters out of the corner and sets him up for a Jackhammer!!...And he hits it!!! Masters is knocked out. Damien drags him over to the corner now, positions him and starts to climb the corner. Damien makes it to the top now. And.....PAGAN STAR PRESS!!!.....Shooting Star Press finisher by Damien!! He hit it on Masters and goes for the pin......
ONE
TWO
THREE!!!.......And it's over!!
ND: Yes, Masters loses, Damien wins!!
ND: Uh what?...What the hell is this?
JP: This could be what I've been waiting for all today.
(Nick Dangerous comes out with a mic in hand.)
Voice: Hello everyone and WELCOME! to the DANGER ZONE!
(The voice is revealed to be Nick Dangerous as he continues his walk down the ramp towards the ring.)
JP: THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!
ND: What are you talking about!
JP: The Danger Zone! Nick Dangerous actually managed to get permission to hold his own one time only talk show.
ND: What happened to the Golden Moment?
JP: Oh screw the Golden Moment, it's time for a great show.
(Nick is standing in the ring with the mic in his hand.)
Nick: Welcome to the one and only, tonight we witness history as I take the helm as your dominant talk show host, Aaron Gold can go sit in the back seat with his many whores for just a couple minutes, tonight is MY night. Tonight's guest is someone you all know very well by now, whether it's for his mask or his knack for losing to the likes of myself my guess is definetely well known, I made a promise over the course of my lifeless week, claiming that this week I was going to sort things out through words, I am not in a fighting mood tonight. Tonight I'm going to settle the differences between myself and my guest in a calm, peaceful manner. I hope EVERYONE in the back is watching, you see because tonight, I am not going to settle things by toting a gun and trying to blow his head off, I am not going to throw him of a frigging balcony and hope to God himself that the man is stripped of life. No, I am going to talk to him, in a CALM, and PEACEFUL manner. Maybe you'll all learn a thing or two. Now send in the sheep.
(New Noise by Refused hits the PA system as the crowd cheers. Drone comes out and plays to the crowd.)
Nick: Okay please, this is supposed to be an ordered program, none of this hip hoppity loud bebop crap, I am not having that on my time. Just get Drone in the ring so we can speak man to man.
(The music turns off as Drone enters the ring.)
Nick: Drone.......First off I gotta ask you...how does it feel to be the first and last guest on the Danger Zone?
(Nick holds the mic to Drone's face, only to pull it back when he leans towards the mic to speak.)
Nick: You know what that doesn't really matter, I'm gonna get right to the point. I'm gonna ask you a serious question. Why, Drone. Just why did you see fit to stick your nose in my business huh!?
(Nick repeats his previous actions, sticking the mic in Drone's direction for barely a second and takes it back.)
Nick: You know what that doesn't really matter you know why? I already know why, revenge, for what I did to your little friend Sean Campbell. The REAL question is, what were you thinking man!? I'M Nick Dangerous, you're just some punk in a mask trying to get noticed, what WERE you thinking?
(This time he barely even gives Drone the mic before he pulls it back.)
Nick: Actually don't even bother with that, because the right answer is Drone, that you weren't thinking, you didn't think, you can't think for yourself, you remind me of an old friend. Heh, yeah, a former friend, I mean. Here's the true question right here....Just WHO are you?
(Nick is about to hand Drone the mic, hesitates, and decides to keep it.)
Nick: Nevermind...This is also something I can cover. Seeing as I'm sure you're just going to give me the name Drone. What I really meant to ask was who is Drone? And I put some thought into this, and I've decided I really do know the answer. You aren't who a lot of people think you are. At one point for about three weeks of your life you were something Drone, I'm referring to a point in your life where you alligned yourself with the man of all men Nick Dangerous, I'm talking about a man who's failure to make his own decisions led to his downfall, much like your weak attempt to seek revenge on me for shooting him down. Who is Drone. Drone is a man who isn't fighting for a friend, he is fighting for himself, he's fighting to prove that he can do something that his ACTUAL friend, Gargantuflem, couldn't do.
ND: What's he talking about?
JP: Quiet Neil!
Nick: Drone is a man who was victimized by both men who he wanted to call friends, his contract was dragged in the middle of a rivalry when all he wanted was for us all to get along. I'm asking EVERYONE to put their heads together, it shouldn't be too hard to figure out the answer for themselves. Who is Drone? He's nobody, he just doesn't know it yet. I know who you are Drone, I thought I knew you a week ago only to find out I knew you MUCH better than I thought I did. If anyone is having trouble figuring out who I'm talking about I'll give you all a little hint. Sean Campbell.
ND: What!?
JP: There's no chance! Campbell is gone for good! His contract was ripped, Cazzo can't disregard the rules of Nick Dangerous vs Gargantuflem!
Nick: So Sean, can I call you Sean? Doesn't matter, what I'm going to do is I'm going to give you a week, since you're such good friends with Sean Campbell, I'm going to ask Cazzo for the permission to let you bring in a friend to Insurgence, you have only a week to find "Sean Campbell" and prove to me that you are not who I think you are, I wanna see you and Sean Campbell in the same room or I swear, I will rip that mask off of you faster than your career has come and gone. You're gonna need a lot of luck on this boy...Enjoy your time with that stupid mask, I know you're afraid for the future, the only thing that keeps these people from seeing it is that mask, next week nothing will hide your fear, absolutely nothing. I'll leave you now, with the mic, so you can give your thoughts on this situation..
(Nick inches forward to give Drone the mic, but pulls it back once more.)
Nick: On second thought, I wanna keep the mic. We've wasted enough time on Cazzo's freak show. Hopefully you don't stand around for too long, I'm out.
(The crowd boos as Nick paces himself out of the arena.)
(Commercials).
JP: You know Nick had a point there. Why is Drone all doing that? Why is he doing all of that for Sean Campbell? There's something spooky about that. Whats the connection between Drone and Sean Campbell. All we know is that they are friends, but we never seen them together.
DT: Campbell is no longer allowed in the EWCL, thats why you have never seen him with Drone. Thats a valid explanation. Whats so weird about it that Drone tries to defend Sean Campbells honour. Huh, whats so weird about that?
ND: A guy defending another man's honour.....That sounds soooo gay.
(slap-ouch).
DT: Ok, now on to this match. We have Belton aka Jesus Van Dangerous and Nick Dangerous taking on Stephen Jackson and Javier Vasquez. Tagmatch action here between people that can't really stand eachother. Gonna be intresting to see how this is gonna work out.
(Blackout by DMX plays and Stephen Jackson and Javier Vasquez come out from the back. They make it to ringside and enter the ring)
(Closer by Nine Inch Nails begins to play and out comes Jesus Van Dangerous. JVD runs to the ring and rolls in).
(Fire in The Head by the Tea Party hits the PA, and Nick Dangerous comes from behind the cutain. The crowd boo's him tremendously, and he has a look of disgust on his face. He reaches the ring, and slides in.)
DING DING DING
DT: All four men are in the ring so we can start!!...It's Nick Dangerous and Stephen Jackson who are starting off. Can I say that the two captains are taking charge and leading the team. Yes, I can. Jackson and Dangerous tie up and Nick with a knee to the stomach. He then nails Jackson with a right hand. But Jackson returns with a right hand of his own. Jackson with another hard right hand and that gives him the advantage. Jackson takes Nick and sends him into the ropes. He comes off and Jackson with a backbodydrop. Nick lands hard on the canvas. Jackson brings Nick to his feet and sends him into the ropes once more. Dangerous comes of and its Jackson with a tilt-o-wirl powerslam.
JP: Ah, don't worry. Nick will find a way to get the upperhand in this match. He will, trust me, he will. ...Jackson picks Nick up and whips him into the ropes again. Dangerous comes off, but he ducks the forearm. He comes off the opposite ropes and hits Jackson with a flying forearm!!!....Jackson went down!!...Oh yeah, I told you so, didn't I. Dangerous brings Jackson to his feet and grabs him and delivers a belly to belly suplex on him. Dangerous follows that up with delvering a Liger Bomb on Jackson.....Even finishing it up with a pin attempt....
ONE

KICKOUT!
ND: Nick almost had the victory there. However Jackson kicked out and its not over yet. Nick now tags in his partner. JVD jumps over the ropes. He grabs Jackson and sends him into the ropes. He comes off and JVD with a headscissors takedown. Thats his special move, he does it all the time. JVD now places his boot to Jacksons throat and he chokes the life out of him. The referee makes the count till 5 and after that JVD lets go for a second, but he then applies the choke again. Javier Vasquez comes into the ring and he knocks JVD down from behind!!
DT: Thats some sort of teamwork. At least Jackson can rely on Vasquez here. It seems like thats the only wrestler that he can rely on in the EWCL. He knocked JVD down to the mat and Jackson now makes it back up again. He takes JVD and sets him up for a snap suplex and executes it. He floats over and delivers a second snap suplex!!.....Jackson then tags in Vasquez. Javier enters the ring again and together they pick up JVD. They throw him into the ropes.......JVD comes off and they double flapjack JVD and he goes facefirst into the mat!!.....That will do the job. Vasquez turns JVD on his back and hooks the leg for the cover....
ONE
TWO
KICKOUT!!
JP: Close but no cigar. Oh no...Oh hell no!! Dangerism does not give up that easily. And I will state once again. Dangerism will NEVER EVER DIE!!....As for some people claiming that Dangerism had died. It never has, and it never will. So be it!!......Vasquez is stomping down on JVD right now. Big hard stomps and kicks to keep JVD on the mat. He is not giving him the time to get back on his feet again. Vasquez now picks JVD up from the mat and he throws him into the ropes. JVD comes off and Vasquez with a big boot that sends JVD to the mat again!!....That did not look for JVD there. Vasquez hit him hard in the face. Come on Jesus!!.....Vasquez for another cover here.....
ONE
TWO
T.....KICKOUT!!
ND: Belton is still in this one. We can hear Nick chearing him on, shouting out to him to hang in there. To do it for Dangerism. Yeah, that will do it. Vasquez brings JVD to his feet again and drags him over to the corner. He lifts JVD up on the topturnbuckle. Vasquez climbs to the toprope himself now. He grabs JVD, but Belton blocks it and he pushes Vasquez off the toprope!!....And Javier falls down to the mat!!!......He gets back to his feet again though, he did that pretty fast....Vasquez standing again.....BUT WOW!!...JVD JUMPS OFF THE TOPROPE....FOR A TORNADO DDT!!!......That looked impressive!!! Great move by Belton!!!....Vasquez is out of it, but JVD is also layed out on the mat.
DT: After a couple of seconds it is JVD who manages to roll himself on top off Vasquez and he goes for the pin.....
ONE
TWO
THR.......KICKOUT!!.....But miraculously Vasquez is able to kick out of it. JVD picks Vasquez up now and delivers a reverse suplex. He follows that up with another cover attempt, but it only gets a two count. Belton tags in Nick and now it is Dangerism with a double team move. They life Vasquez up, bounce his legs onto the toprope and suplex Vasquez hard to the mat!!.....Belton goes back to his corner and Nick applies a Fujinami armbar on Vasquez. He screams it out from the pain here now!!......The referee checks on him....but Vasquez ain't tapping out yet!!.....And Jackson enters the ring now ...and he does a basement dropkick to Nick!!...Wow!!!....And Nick immediately has to let go off that armbar!!
JP: Jackson with the save for Vasquez there. The referee made Jackson go back to his corner now. Meanwhile Vasquez crawled over to the ropes and uses them to get on his feet again. He makes it up, but Nick is already right behind him. He waistlocks Vasquez, but Javier with a mulekick and an elbow to get rid of Dangerous. Dangerous staggers backwards and Vasquez makes the tag to Jackson. The Perfect Storm comes in and he clotheslines Dangerous down to the mat. JVD comes in, but Jackson also takes him out with a clothesline. Jackson picks up Nick and then grabs JVD with the other arm and he ramms both of their heads into eachother!!...Ooh boy, I hope that is not gonna be a concussion for either one of them!!
ND: Nick and JVD are both stunned right now. Jackson drags JVD over to the corner right now. Jackson tags in Vasquez and he then goes to the corner and climbs to the top. Vasquez enters the ring and he takes JVD and lifts him onto the topturnbuckle. Jackson takes a hold of JVD .....and......LANDFALL!!!......TOPROPEPILEDRIVER ON JVD!!!.....HOLY SHIT!!!......And JVD is knocked out cold!!!......But he is not the legal man on the side of Dangerism. Jackson is peppering JVD with some shots to the head, while Vasquez is doing the same thing to Nick. He then picks up Dangerous and irish whips him....Nick comes off the ropes.....but he ducks the forearm. He stops behind Vasquez, turns him around ......
DT: And Dangerous with an overhead belly to belly suplex on Vasquez!! He hits it!!.....WOW!!!..Jackson storms in on Dangerous, but Nick catches him in a spinning samoan drop!!! .....Dangerous then goes back to Vasquez and grabs him and he sets him up for a Danger Driver!! Thats gonna be it!!... But Vasquez escapes out of it!!....And out of nowhere he DDT's Nick to the mat!!!....Nick is layed out and Vasquez goes to the corner and climbs to the top. He stands on the topturnbuckle!!...HE JUMPS OFF.....BUT NICK GOT UP AND HE CATCHES VASQUEZ INTO ANOTHER FUJINAMI ARMBAR!!!.....AND HE GOT THAT SUBMISSION HOOKED IN ON VASQUEZ AGAIN!!!......And Vasquez is in severe pain!!!.....
JP: The referee checks on him now!!....Jackson meanwhile got back up. He wants to break the submission, but JVD charges in and hits him with a high knee!!! JVD then picks Jackson up ...and hits him with The Son Rise!!....Jackson is layed out on the mat and we see that Dangerous still has Vasquez in that armbar......AND.........HE TAPPS OUT!!! ...JAVIER VASQUEZ HAS JUST TAPPED OUT!!!.....DANGERISM WINS THIS TAGMATCH!!!..They defeat Stephen Jackson and Javier Vasquez.
ND: They sure did it.
(After the match is officially over, Dangerous sneaks up behind Jackson, and delivers a club to the back of the head. Jackson doubles over as Dangerous delivers a DDT to Jackson, laying him out of the mat).
JP: It's not over yet for Jackson, baby! Payback!
ND: This doesn't look good for Jackson, not at all.
(On the outside, Jesus sends Javier into the steel rail, and follows it up with a clothesline, sending him into the crowd. Nick Dangerous is now out of the ring, and grabs a steel chair. He climbs back into the ring, and looks down at Jackson).
DT: What does Dangerous plan on doing to Jackson?
JP: If I knew Nick, I'd say he plans on ending Jackson's career tonight.
ND: I hope so..
(As Nick raises the chair over his head, we can see that Drone is sprinting down to the ring. Dangerous stares him down, the steel chair in his possession, and raised over his head. As Jackson makes it to his feet, Drone turns to him and delivers a strong cresent kick to his sternum, sending him flying to the mat).
JP: What the hell?!
DT: Why did Drone just hit Jackson? I thought he was here for Dangerous!
ND: I don't understand what's going on here.
(Drone takes the steel chair out of Dangerous' hands, and raises it over his head. He looks over to Dangerous, then at Jackson, and suddenly brings the chair down over the head of Jackson, knocking him unconcious. He tosses the chair to Nick, and rolls out of the ring. Nick stares at Drone, dumfounded and shocked as he disappears into the crowd).
(Commercials)
Cazzo: First of all. I want to make the announcement that the EWCL will have 3 more shows after tonight! ......We will have 2 more Insurgence shows and then we have one final PPV on the 23rd of November called "THE FINAL CHAPTER". One match for that PPV has already been booked as we seen last week. Nick Dangerous and Drone will face eachother on the 23rd.
(The crowd cheers).
Cazzo: After the 23rd the EWCL will stay in our hearts forever, but we will all move on to bigger things. Ofcourse I refer to the merger. But enough about that right now. The real reason I am out here is because of Scott Monroe. Last week Scott defeated Nick Dangerous for the EWCL title. The result of that is that Monroe has both the Prime Time Title and the EWCL Title in his possession. Scott now has to make a decision which title he is gonna keep and which title he is gonna vacate. So Scott whats it gonna be?
(The arena falls into darkness...
An industrial beat begins to blare over the P.A. system as a crucifix engulfed in flames erupts onto the Cazzotron. As the symbol begins to rotate, a voice begins to whisper..
"We have spiraled beyond the limits well known, now we walk the road alone. Prepare for loss and accept my war, prepare for the truth as the prophet foretold..."
The voice is suddenly cut out by the growling sound of Trent Reznor, as he moves through the words, his voice reaches an agony filled scream.
"YOUR GOD IS DEAD AND NO ONE CARES! IF THERE IS A HELL, I'LL SEE YOU THERE!"
Taxicab Messiah by the Kidney Thieves continues is course as Free, the lead vocalist, begins to screech out the lyrics..
My God loved the whore's and babies
My God never noticed a sin
My God grew and killed daisies
My God threw the towel in
Fire erupts from either side of the stage as flashing strobes of purple, red and blue spiral around the arena. The curtains are withdrawn as Sociatys Slave steps through. From top to bottom Monroe wears a pair of black combat boots, black jeans tucked into them. A black shirt with numerous circular rings and straps run over it. His long black and blonde hair is pulled back into numerous braids as he stares out over the arena from behind a pair of silver and black shades. Leaning down to the left, Monroe rises quickly, spinning his upper body and extending his arms in the gesture of the mock crucifixition. Monroe throws his head back, laughing in manical laughter for a moment before looking back down to the ring. Lower his arms, Monroe then makes his way down to the ring. Rolling beneath the bottom rope).
(Monroe holds both the Prime Time and E.W.C.L. championship before him, then tosses both to the ground. Motioning for a microphone, Monroe raises to his lips to speak).
Monroe ~ Eric, first I'd like to say that since I've got to vacate one of these championships, I wonder who the Hell could possibly fill my shoes. Who in this federation could possibly be a better champion for either belt then I could? That's right, no one. However I'd like to point out that I'm being forced to vacate a championship, while Nick Dangerous was allowed to hold two championship belts at once. I'd also like to point out that Corvik has done so in the past as well as numerous other superstars. You think I don't see what's going on?
Eric ~ Scott, the truth is that you know as well as I do that in this ring, there may not be a man alive that can defeat you. I hate to say that about anyone and I'd love to see someone like O'Connor, someone like Punisher or someone like...Hell..Myself...
(The crowd begins to scream with cheers..)
Eric ~ ..Wait.wait..settle down. While I'd like to see you go up against some of the legends of the past, the truth is that you haven't done anything that you didn't say you would. I cannot in good conscience leave those belts on you. I'm sorry Scott but you're far to prone to leaving, losing it or simply disappearing. What happens when you do that again and you've got numerous championship belts? What happens if you leave again like you did with the Universal championship? This is not punishment, it's because I can't control you. I can't make you stay and defend those belts. I'm sorry but you're going to have to make a choice...
(Monroe nods his head for a moment and looks at Eric with a wide, sadistic smile).
Monroe ~ You know something, you're right. I can't fault you for what I've done in the past and I can't blame you for making special exceptions for me because of said past. What I can do, Eric, is something that no one ever saw coming.
(Monroe steps forward and gets into Van Zandts face).
Monroe ~ I'm going to be in the Hall of Fame. I'm going to Grand Slam and you know something, I'm going to make you regret ever believing that men like Nick Dangerous or Sean Corvik could ever handle me. Before you look into my mind, I'm going to give you a little glimpse of Hell.
(The Cazzo-Tron suddenly comes to life as the image of both Sean Corvik and Scott Monroe forcing Exile to tap out is shown...)
Monroe ~ The Extreme championship was on the line in that match, Eric. The Extreme championship, the last piece of my puzzle was on the line and I was named co-winner. So doesn't that make me co-champion as well?
(Eric narrows his eyes...)
Monroe ~ That's right, you purposely left that championship on Corvik's waist thinking I wouldn't notice, but I did notice. I thought I'd get my return match but it never happened. I thought I'd get a chance to claim the belt out right but it never happened. Now where is Corvik? Last time we saw him Exile disappeared as well. Don't worry, that wasn't by my hand. What is by my hand is the fact that by all rights and accounts, I should be a Grand Slam champion already. By all rights and accounts I should now be the third man ever to become a Grand Slam champion and the first man to ever do so undefeated. I've made history, Eric, more than Corvik or Blade ever could. Now with Corvik gone I'm asking...no..I'm demanding that you give me the shot that I was denied. I'm demanding the championship shot that I deserve and if you can't drag Sean Corvik's dead ass out to give it to me, then you put me in the match with anyone. Anyone you think can take me in my type of element. I'm suicidal, I'm deadly and I'll burn this whole place to the ground to get that belt....
Eric ~ So you want me to strip Corvik of the championship?
Monroe ~ It's been over thirty days Eric. Thirty days without a title defense means the champion is stripped of the gold. Thirty days and Corvik hasn't shown his face to prove that he wants that belt. Well I'm here, now, saying that I want..that I need that belt.
Eric ~ It's true that Corvik hasn't shown his face here since the incident with Exile. Alright Scott, I'll tell you what. You want a shot at the Extreme championship?
Monroe ~ It's not a shot Eric, I want the other half of the belt that I should already own.
Eric ~ Fine, you want to prove that you deserve the Extreme championship? In two weeks at Insurgence you'll get your shot. How? I haven't decided yet but two weeks from now you'll get a chance to Grand Slam..how does that sound?
(The crowd goes nuts as Monroe nods his head).
Monroe ~ I finally feel like you aren't trying to use me. That's how it sounds.
Eric ~ I'm not using you Scott, I'm a business man. I've got to worry about this company and keeping these fans happy.
Monroe ~ Don't worry, they'll be happy in two weeks when I become the third man to Grand Slam and the first ever man to Grand Slam without ever having been defeated.
Eric ~ That might be the case but now give us the answer we've been waiting on...which championship are you going to keep?
(Monroe looks over both belts for a moment and then looks to Eric).
Monroe ~ Have I made the Prime Time title worth something?
Eric ~ Of course...
Monroe ~ Then it's time I did the same to the E.W.C.L. championship. Take the Prime Time title and always remember that I was never beaten for this belt, that I was never pinned. Last year Aaron Gold was said to make the belt mean something, this year the only reason that belt doesn't become a permanent part of my anatomy is because you're stripping me of it.
(Monroe smirks as the crowd continues to go nuts..)
Monroe ~ I suppose I've got to wipe the stench of Dangerous of this belt anyway.
(With that Monroe leans down and grabs the E.W.C.L. championship. As he turns and walks towards the ropes he cast a look back at Eric..)
Monroe ~ Record this moment, Eric, because you may never hear me say this again...
Eric ~ What's that Scott?
Monroe ~...Thank you...
(With that Scott Monroe steps out of the ring as Taxicab Messiah by the Kidney Thieves begins to play once more. A stunned Eric Van Zandt stands in the ring nearly speechless...)
(Commercials).
DT: We are back people. Man, what a news we just heard. In two weeks Monroe gets his opportunity to become the third Grand Slammer. He gets a title shot for the Extreme Title. We don't know against who, and don't know what kind of match it is going to be.
JP: I'd say let him face Nick Dangerous again. This time Dangerism will win!!...Monroe vs. Dangerous part IV will be the right number for Nick.
DT: There is no need to go speculating who Monroe could face. Right now he has to face Drone. I think he will have his hands full on Drone, don't you think.
JP: Drone....I haven't really figured out yet why Drone hit Stephen Jackson with that chair and why he didn't nail Nick with it. Ofcourse I am happy that he didn't do it to Nick, but I am a little confused and so are all the Dangerism followers.
ND: How do you know? Do you have like a Dangerism newsgroup where all the followers are subscribed to?
JP: Hey, how did you know? We tried to keep it underground, but I guess someone told you.
ND:.......I am ..really...speechless right now.
DT: Ok, time for this match guys. Scott Monroe versus Drone. We all know about Drone and his situation with Nick Dangerous. We also know that Monroe has taken care off Stephen Jackson. Monroe achieved one of his goals last week when he defeated Dangerous. But this is not just a normal match for Monroe. Monroe has something to settle with Drone. It's not only that the EWCL title is at stake in this match. It's more than that. Monroe did not had a good feeling about it when he was in a team together with Drone and Logan Darkholme a few weeks ago.
ND: Didn't Monroe even say that he regretted that he didn't put Drone on fire?
DT: Yes I think he actually said that.
ND: Man....
DT: So like I said, this is more than just a regular title match.
(The arena falls into darkness...
An industrial beat begins to blare over the P.A. system as a crucifix engulfed in flames erupts onto the Cazzotron. As the symbol begins to rotate, a voice begins to whisper..
"We have spiraled beyond the limits well known, now we walk the road alone. Prepare for loss and accept my war, prepare for the truth as the prophet foretold..."
The voice is suddenly cut out by the growling sound of Trent Reznor, as he moves through the words, his voice reaches an agony filled scream.
"YOUR GOD IS DEAD AND NO ONE CARES! IF THERE IS A HELL, I'LL SEE YOU THERE!"
Taxicab Messiah by the Kidney Thieves continues is course as Free, the lead vocalist, begins to screech out the lyrics..
My God loved the whore's and babies
My God never noticed a sin
My God grew and killed daisies
My God threw the towel in
Fire erupts from either side of the stage as flashing strobes of purple, red and blue spiral around the arena. The curtains are withdrawn as Sociatys Slave steps through. From top to bottom Monroe wears a pair of black combat boots, black jeans tucked into them. A black shirt with numerous circular rings and straps run over it. His long black and blonde hair is pulled back into numerous braids as he stares out over the arena from behind a pair of silver and black shades. Leaning down to the left, Monroe rises quickly, spinning his upper body and extending his arms in the gesture of the mock crucifixition. Monroe throws his head back, laughing in manical laughter for a moment before looking back down to the ring. Lower his arms, Monroe then makes his way down to the ring. Rolling beneath the bottom rope, Monroe kneels in the far corner and stares at his opponent before extending his arms once again in the mock crucifixition).
(New Noise by Refused plays and Drone appears on the ramp. He stands there for a moment before he makes his way down to the ring. He reaches ringside and rolls in).
JP: Monroe with the early match advantage. As usual Monroe always has a good start. He always wants to overwhelm the opposition at the beginning of the match. Thats his strategy, which mostly works. Except ofcourse against Nick Dangerous.
ND: Uhmm...he beat Nick three times now.
JP: Yeah, but Nick is the only one who ever got a pin on him.
ND: That was in an 60 minute Ironman match!!
DT: After about 20 seconds Monroe lets go off the chinlock. Drone gets back to his feet again and the two tie up for a third time. Monroe with a side headlock, but Drone uses an elbow to move out of it. He then waistlocks Monroe and takes him down with a tossing German suplex. Monroe favours his neck, but gets back to his feet rather quickly. He charges in on Drone, but he does an armdrag takedown to bring Monroe to the mat again. Drone follows that up with a standing shooting star press and he quickly hooks the leg for the cover......
ONE
TWO
KICKOUT!!!.......That was pretty close. Drone showing that he is able to match Monroe. At least in this stage of the match. He pulls Monroe up, throws him into a corner and chops him to the chest several times now.
JP: The crowd goes ooooooooh everytime that he chops Monroe to the chest. The crowd still seems to be on Drone's side, even after the fact that he hit Jackson with that chair. But then again Jackson is not really a fan favorite, so its not that they were probly shocked about it. Drone picks Monroe up now and he delivers a stalling vertical suplex!!....Monroe lands hard on his back and Drone immediately grabs Monroe and hooks him in a surfboard submission move!! It looks like Drone is going for Monroe's back here. First that suplex and then this submission. The referee checks on Monroe, but it looks like there isn't even an expression on his face. Drone then lets go and Monroe favours his back.
ND: Drone takes Monroe's arm and he then irish whips Monroe into a corner. He goes in backfirst and thats another blow to his back. Drone waits a few seconds and he then charges in. He comes in the corner, but Monroe sticks his elbow out and Drone runs right into it. He stumbles backwards and Monroe with a roundhouse kick that sends Drone down to the canvas. Monroe favours his back again and he then picks up Drone. He irish whips him into the opposite corner and after Drone flew in, Monroe charges in and .....HE REACHES THE CORNER AND JUMPS UP AND PLANTS BOTH HIS KNEES INTO DRONE"S CHEST!!...Oh God!! That has to hurt alot!!
DT: Drone now coughing loudly, its like that move took his breath away. While Drone is still with his back against the turnbuckles, Monroe moves out of the corner. But he then charges in again....does a couple of flips....and ends in the corner with a roundhouse kick that hits Drone right in the jaw!!.....Man, that does it. Two of those hard moves in a row. Drone falls down towards the mat. He is laying there facefirst righ now. Monroe turns him around and places him on his back. But he's not going for the cover. Instead Monroe climbs to the top. He makes it to the topturnbuckle and ....HE JUMPS OFF...FOR A DOUBLE STOMP OFF THE TOP!!!.....He stomped Drone right in the chest!!!....That really has to take his breathe away.
JP: Drone coughing more and more now. And Monroe now hooking the leg and going for the cover attempt. Is he gonna do it? .....
ONE
TWO
But Drone has a foot on the ropes........That breaks the count. Drone rescued himself here and stayed in this match. He is using the ropes now to get back up, but Monroe is not giving him the time right now. Monroe comes in and he shouldertackles Drone. He then grabs him and irish whips him, but Drone reverses the whip and sends Monroe into the opposite ropes. Monroe goes in, but he holds on to the ropes. Drone sees this and he storms in right away.......But Monroe counters and backdrops Drone over the toprope!!....But Drone lands onto the apron.
ND: Monroe turns around towards the apron....but Drone jumps off the apron........uses the toprope as a springboard and does a flying clothesline to Monroe!! Wow!!...That looked pretty good. Monroe went down and Drone now crawling towards the ropes again. He is taking his time here, finally getting some air. Air is what he needs right now. Especially after those blows to the chest. After about 10 seconds Drone moves in on Monroe again. He picks him up, grabs him in a full nelson position and then turns it into a Full nelson slam!!!.....Way to go by Drone there. He then even hooks the leg and goes for the cover.....
ONE
TWO
KICKOUT!!.......But the EWCL champion manages to kick out of it.
DT: Drone pulls Monroe to his feet again and he then throws him into a corner. Monroe goes in backfirst and Drone then comes charging in. He goes for a shouldertackle, but.....Monroe moves out of the way in time and Drone flies through the second and toprope right into the steel ringpost!!! He hit his shoulder right into that post!! First the chest and now the shoulder!! Thats not good at all for Drone. Monroe drags him out of the corner and throws him through the ropes to the outside!!.....Drone lands on the concrete floor. He slowly tries to make it back up.........Monroe is actually even waiting till Drone makes it up. About 10 seconds later Drone is standing on his feet again.....Scott Monroe noticed this, he hits the ropes, comes off ....and he leaps over the toprope and he takes Drone to the floor!!
JP: I think he even headbutted Drone while being in the air!! Ooooh man!!!.....Lets look at those reruns!!....Yes, Monroe used his head and he headbutted Drone to the shoulder while being in the air!!....We sure seen some strategies in this match. Drone going for Monroe's back, and Monroe going for the chest and now the shoulder. Monroe is back up now and he pulls Drone up and he shoves him shoulderfirst into the nearest ringpost. Monroe repeats this one more time. Monroe then grabs Drone and he irish whips him in the direction of the steel ringsteps.....and Drone flies in shoulderfirst!!...Oooh damn!!!.....Thats really not good for that shoulder!!.....I wonder if he can actually raise his left arm in the air. Monroe smirks and he then charges in on Drone......but oooooh Drone uses his legs and does a drop toe hold to Monroe and the champion goes face first into the steel ringsteps!!
ND: Again Drone bought himself some time here. He slowly makes it to his feet and he checks on his left shoulder. His body language shows us that its not looking good with that shoulder. It must have been injured pretty bad. But what do you expect when you fly several times into steel. That cannot be good for any body part. Drone now grabs Monroe's head and he smashes it into the ringsteps several times......After doing that, Drone grabs Monroe and rolls him back into the ring again. Drone rolls into the ring aswell and he picks up Monroe. He wants to lift him on his shoulders....but he can't do it!! His shoulder injury prevents him from doing so!!!.....And Drone has to drop Monroe again......And Monroe uses this moment and .....NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX ON DRONE!!......And going for the cover....
ONE

KICKOUT
DT: Drone with a kickout. I really thought Monroe had the win right there. Monroe takes Drone up from the mat now and he sends him into the ropes. Drone comes off and Monroe with a Japanese armdrag. Did you see that John. Monroe also with a Japanese style move. I wonder where he learned that......Monroe then picks up Drone and irish whips him into the ropes again. Drone comes off, but he slides through Monroe's legs. He gets up behind him....and this time he is able to lift him up....AND EXECUTES A DEATH VALLEY DRIVER TO MONROE!!......He hit him hard with that move and Drone now hooking the leg and going for the cover. The referee for the count.......

TH......KICKOUT!!!
JP: What a pretty close call there!!!....Drone shakes his head now. He then picks up Monroe from the mat. He kicks him into the gut and then irish whips him into the ropes. Monroe comes off.....and HE BASEMENT DROPKICKS DRONE TO THE LEFT LEG!!!......And Drone goes to one knee!!.....Monroe quickly gets back up....AND HE CHARGES IN ON DRONE AGAIN .....AND...SHINING WIZZARD TO DRONE!!!....He hit Drone hard in the head with a viscious kick!!!.......Drone is out of it now.....Scott Monroe gets back to his feet again and he stares at the Morlocks who are sitting at ringside as always. He nods to the Morlocks and they know whats coming next. Monroe picks up Drone.......and......DEICIDE!!!.......His finishing move on Drone!!!......Monroe hooks the leg for the cover.......

THREE!!
DT: It's over!! Monroe beats Drone.
(The match is over and Scott Monroe stares at Drone. He then moves over to him, picks him up and hits his patented HEAVENS GATES chain evenflow DDT's on him. Monroe then leaves Drone layed out in the ring).
(Commercials).
DT: Hello all. We are back for the last time tonight. Sofar tonight has brought us more questions than answers. Are Drone and Sean Campbell the same person? Why did Drone attack Stephen Jackson instead of Nick Dangerous? Who is gonna be Scott Monroe's opponent for the Extreme Title in two weeks? Where did Jason East go? Who will face eachother at the fnal EWCL show at "The Final Chapter" PPV? Alot of questions yet to be answered. Right now a question will be answered. Is Shadowcast gonna be the new Universal Champion? We will find out within 20 minutes wether thats gonna be the case or not.
JP: Again I state that it is weird that Shadowcast gets a titleshot in his first match. Thats not right, just not right. People like Nick Dangerous bust their asses of every week, but they get depromoted to midcard action. And here comes Shadowcast and bamm he is in the main event with a Universal Title shot. How is that possible?
DT: Come on John. Take it easy. The fact that Shadowcast is in this match has to do with it that Logan Darkholme offered the match to him. The champion did that himself, John. Its not booking or backstage politics going on. Its the champion who accepted the challenge made by Shadowcast. So there is nothing weird about this match.
JP: Yeah but...
DT: No buts!
ND: The only butts I wanna see is the one from Charlou Ashall....
(slap-ouch).
(Numb by Linkin Park plays and "The Talentkiller" Shadowcast makes his way out to ringside. The crowd boos him loudly as he walks down the aisle. He reaches the ring and slides in).
(The lights go out, and "Us" By Samael hits the PA. The drum beat begins, as a strobe light hits on each beat. The guitars kicks in, and spotlight comes down on the top of the ramps, while other spotlights move around the audience. Logan Darkholme and Charlou Ashall appear. Logan wears his wrestling attire, of black boots, and baggy black cargo pants. He wears also a leather jacket, which he pulls back to reveal his Universal title. The spotlight changes to a strobe light, alternating between several colours as they walk down the ramp. They reaches the ring, and use the ring steps to get up onto the ring apron. The lights stop flashing, and are replaced again by a single spotligh, aimed down on top of Logan. He raises his arms, before stepping into the ring. He goes to all four corners, taking his belt off and holding it up at each. Finally, he stands in the middle of the ring with his title draped before him)
DING DING DING
DT: The match has started and Darkholme and Shadowcast go right at it from the start. They have a long history together these two, it goes back to two other federations. Shadowcast goes for some chops, but Dakrholme answers with hard chops of his own that stagger Shadowcast. He chops Shadowcast into a corner. Darkholme comes in and he steps onto the bottom rope and begins to hit Shadowcast with right and left hands. Darkholme steps off the bottom rope and he then drags Shadowcast out of the corner. He grabs him by the head and does a snappmare to him and follows it up with a hard stiff kick to the back. Darkholme follows up with a couple more kicks to the back.
ND: The champion looks to be in control here already. I can't tell how their battles were in the other federations. All I know is that Darkholme came out the victor out of those matches and the way it looks after the first few minutes he will win this one aswell. Darkholme now pulls Shadowcast to his feet. He nails him with a right hand and he then irish whips him into the ropes. Shadowcast comes off and Darkholme going for a backdrop.....but Shadowcast read the move and he anticipates to it and kicks Darkholme to the face and then smashes his head into the mat. Shadowcast quickly follows it up with a legdrop to the back of Logans head. Shadowcast jumps on Logans back, grabs his head and hooks in some sort of headlock.
JP: Darkholme tries to crawl and drag himself over to the ropes. Shadowcast hangs on to that choke, but the Universal Champion is able to get closer and closer to the ropes. He finally reaches it and the referee makes Shadowcast break the choke. Darkholme back to his feet, but Shadowcast comes in and knees him to the midsection. Darkholme hangs in the ropes right now.....Shadowcast hits the opposite ropes, storms in ....and......HE CLOTHESLINES DARKHOLME OVER THE TOPROPE TO THE OUTSIDE!!!......Oooh Good Lord!!!.....Darkholme landed hard on the concrete floor. That was pretty impressive by Shadowcast there. He just clotheslined the champion out of the ring!!
DT: Darkholme is slowly getting up now, but Shadowcast already rolled out of the ring. He moves up to Darkholme and kicks him to the head, making Logan to fall down again. Darkholme crawls back up, but Shadowcast with another kick to sent him to the concrete again. Shadowcast then picks up Logan and he lifts him up and ...PUMP HANDLE SLAM TO THE CONCRETE FLOOR!!!....Unbelievable!!!.......And he's not done with Darkholme yet!!....He brings him to his feet again. He lifts Darkholme up and....he drops him facefirst into the security guardrail!!!.....And Darkholme is now laying onto the guardrail!!....Shadowcast looks under the ring and he takes a steelchair from under it. He slams it to the floor one time to make sure he got a good chair.
ND: Shadowcast then moves over to Darkholme and he then ramms the chair to Logans back!!!.....And Shadowcast repeats that 3 more times!! Oh my....four shots to the back with that steelchair!!!....But its allowed in this match. Shadowcast drops the chair and he then grabs Darkholme and brings him over to the ring and rolls him back in. The Talentkiller makes it in himself aswell and he hooks Logans leg for the cover......Do we have a new champion?......
ONE
TWO
TH......KICKOUT!!!.................Nooooo!!!....We don't have a new champion!!! Logan Darkholme kicked out of it!! Thats amazing!! He got hit 4 times in the back with a steelchair, yet he is still able to kick out of it.
DT: Why is Scott Monroe here? Does he think that Logan needs help or something? Monroe helped Darkholme last week by only playing his music. Back then Logan used that to get Damien off guard and to grab him to be able to uncuff himself. Maybe now Monroe feels like he has to be at ringside to help his tagpartner out. Who knows. But back to the match. Darkholme throws the steelchair out of the ring right now. He then goes for the cover on Shadowcast. .....
ONE
TWO
TH.......KICKOUT.......Its not over yet. Those chairshots did alot of damage, but its not the end for Shadowcast.
ND: Darkholme pulls his opponent to his feet and he then sends him into the ropes. Shadowcast comes off and Darkholme captures him into a sleeper hold. Oh nooo, not the dreadfull sleeper hold!!......Logan got it hooked in right and it already looks like Shadowcast is falling down. His eyes are closing right now and the referee is gonna check if he is out of it or not. He raises Shadowcast his arm for the first time, and it goes down. He raises it for a second time.....and it goes down. He raises it for a third time.....but its not going down. Shadowcast opens his eyes and he then backs up and drives Darkholme into a corner and squashes him. Shadowcast turns towards and uses a couple of right hands on Logan in that corner.
JP: He then lifts Darkholme up and places him onto the topturnbuckle. The Talentkiller climbs up too and he grabs Logan and delivers a SUPERPLEX TO HIM!!!......Darkholme hit the mat hard there. Shadowcast needs some time to recover aswell after that move. He eventually gets up and he goes for the cover.....
ONE
TWO
KICKOUT!!!........But Logan with a kickout. He saved himself and the title just in time. Shadowcast doesn't like it and he goes over to the corner once more. He climbs to the top .......and....HE DIVES OFF FOR A FIVE STAR FROGSPLASH!!........BUT HE MISSES!!!!.....Darkholme rolled out of the way just in time!!
DT: Both men are now layed out in the ring. Who's gonna be the first one to get back up???........It takes awhile but after about 8 seconds they get up at the same time. Shadowcast grabs Darkholme and irish whips him, but Logan reverses the whip and sends Shadowcast into the ropes. Shadowcast comes off and Darkholme with a powerslam!!!...Wowwww!!!....Big powerslam by Darkholme!!......Darkholme makes it up again and he pulls up Shadowcast and drags him over to the corner. He lifts Shadowcast up and places him facing the crowd on the topturnbuckle. Darkholme quickly climbs the toprope aswell and he waistlocks Shadowcast and..........TOSSING GERMAN SUPLEX OFF THE TOPROPE!!!.......And we hear a Holy Shit chant starting in the crowd!!!....
ND: But that was awesome to see. Everytime we see it, it is awesome to see. Darkholme now crawls over to Shadowcast and lays his arm over him to go for the cover. The referee starts the count......
ONE
TWO
THRE.........KICKOUT!!.............That was a very late kickout by Shadowcast. That was like 2 and 9/10 of a seconds. Shadowcast nearly escaped there. Darkholme smirks, notices Scott Monroe and looks at him for a moment. He then turns back towards Shadowcast. He brings him to his feet and throws him into the ropes. Shadowcast comes off, but he ducks the forearm of Darkholme. Shadowcast comes off the opposite ropes and....HE HITS DARKHOLME WITH A CLOTHESLINE FROM HELL!!
JP: Not sure but was Monroe a distraction for Darkholme or not? .....Fact is that Darkholme is layed out now. And it looks like Shadowcast is setting him up for his finisher!! He is waiting to go for his Blackout!!!....A gore that will break you in two!!......Darkholme is getting up now.......He turns towards Shadowcast.....AND SHADOWCAST COMES IN FOR THE BLACKOUT!!!..........BUT DARKHOLME MOVES OUT OF THE WAY IN TIME!!!....AND SHADOWCAST FLIES INTO THE CORNER!!!.....He went in chestfirst there!!!......Darkholme grabs him and drags him out of the corner. He lifts him up and ....BACKSUPLEX!!!.....And the cover attempt.....

TH....KICKOUT!!!.........but another kickout by Shadowcast!!
ND: Yeah, quite amazing. Darkholme now picks Shadowcast up from the mat.
DT: Darkholme then swings his right arm, but Shadowcast ducks it.....and he waistlocks the Universal Champion....and....GERMAN SUPLEX!!!.......He holds on to Logan and ....HE HITS A SECOND GERMAN SUPLEX!!!.......Shadowcast still holds on to Logan......AND HE GOES FOR A TOSSING GERMAN SUPLEX!!!.......BUT OOOOOH DARKHOLME LANDS ON HIS FEET!!!......Have you ever seen something like that before!!!...Logan landed on his feet!!!......Shadowcast turns towards him .....BUT DARKHOLME KICKS HIM INTO THE STOMACHE.....AND....ESCAPE FROM REALITY!!!.......Good God!!!.....And Darkholme hooking the leg for the cover right now.........

DT: That's it!! Logan Darkholme wins this match and he is still the Universal Champion!! He defeated his nemesis here in the EWCL.
(Monroe then rolls into the ring, handing the Universal championship to his partner. Logan smirks as Monroe raises his hand after another hard fought victory. The crowd screams with adulation as the two prepare to exit the ring. As Logan steps through the ropes, Monroe suddenly begins to shake, then grabs his partner by the throat, throwing him back into the ring. Logan rolls through and comes to his feet quickly but Monroe is already on him. A high shining wizard catches Logan in the face and sends him crashing into the turnbuckles behind him. Walking over to his downed partner, Monroe kicks him in the face and then rolls out of the ring. Grabbing a microphone, Monroe then points to the Heavens before rolling back in).
Monroe ~ Shadowcast? SHADOWCAST?!? This was the best you could do as a title defense? I took you under my wing believing that you would be the future. Believing that you would rise and perhaps become a man like Sean Corvik or Chris Lemke, I saw potential in you Logan, I saw that you craved it just like they did.
(The crowd erupts into a chorus of jeers as Monroe simply looks back and spits onto the nearest fans).
Monroe ~ Five minutes ago you were cheering the Hell out of me because I was standing in the ring with YOUR paper champion. That's right, paper champion. Rookie of the year? More like idiot of the century. You thought that you and I were something? That you and I could be something? We haven't even defended the Tag Team championships because you were to busy with people like Damien, Dante, this pathetic piece of sh*t and Jay Masters.
(Logan begins to stir as Monroe drops down to his knees..)
Monroe ~ WHO THE F*CK ARE THESE PEOPLE?!? You told me that you were going to make the championship mean something again. That unlike Dangerous, you were going to turn back the challenges of REAL competitors. Shadowcast? He made his debut last week with what was supposed to be an earth shattering and awe inspiring appearance. Let me ask you something, who here gives a damn about Shadowcast?
(The crowd begins to throw garbage at Monroe. As a cup sails directly for his head, Monroe turns and kicks it from the air. The crowd goes silent as the single silver eye falls upon the fan in the front who threw it. Rolling out of the ring, Monroe reaches back and from behind the folds of his shirt pulls what Eric Van Zandt never wanted to see again. The twisted blade spins in Monroe's hand as he charges towards the fan, but security quickly grabs the man and drags him away).
Monroe ~ YOU HAD BETTER DRAG THAT PIECE OF SHIT AWAY! THE NEXT PIECE OF GARBAGE THAT COMES INTO THIS RING IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED!
(With that Monroe turns his attention back to the ring where Logan has come to his feet...)
Monroe ~ As for you..you disgraced my legacy, you disgraced my friendship and you've disgraced this federation. Eric might have thought that you showed potential but I am the only reason you ever became anything. You think you did it on your own? You're nothing but a Scott Monroe clone. Remember when Nick Dangerous nearly drove John Daniels away from this place by simply calling him Johnrovick? Well I'm not quite as clever as Dangerous when it comes to names but the truth is that I don't have to be. You and I, we're finished. You can take this Tag Team championship that you don't give a damn about and use it to hold your pride up. Darkholme and Monroe are finished...
(The boos begin again except from one part of the audience. Screams of happiness erupt from the Morlocks as Monroe looks over...)
Monroe ~ The only people in this entire arena with the good sense to see the truth.
(The Morlocks continue to scream as Monroe then rolls back into the ring. Logan charges him and knocks the blade from his hand, it falls to the mat and slides out of the ring as Logan tries to take Monroe's head off. Monroe ducks and as Logan turns, Monroe leaps into the air and kicks him in the face. Logan hits the mat hard as Monroe drops to his knees over his former pupil).
Monroe ~ You wanted to what happens when you raise my ire? When you lie to Scott Monroe?
(Smoke begins to stream from the top of the arena until the arena is covered in a thick fog. Spotlights blast the ceiling as a large gothic crucifix begins to lower from the Heavens. It lands in the ring with a thud as Monroe kneels down and grabs Logan by the hair).
Monroe ~ You know, some people have compared you to Alex. I don't think that's fair at all, I think a better comparison would be to compare you to the men you've been beating each week. Men who don't deserve what they've been getting, men who think that they do. Well I've got a little surprise for...
(Monroe then pulls Logan from the ground and throws him into the cross. Clasping the first and second bolts, Monroe laughs to himself as he ties Logan's legs. Stepping onto a notch in the back, the cross begins to rise again. Eric Van Zandt suddenly comes from the backstage area, screaming at the top of his lungs. Monroe and Darkholme however cannot hear, as they make their way to the top of the Cazzo-Tron. The cross lowers itself slowly and Monroe checks it before stepping down. Looking at Logan, he spits in his face before turning back to the crowd).
Monroe ~ This is what you wanted, right?
(Monroe then notices Eric).
Monroe ~ You want to know what the heart and soul of this federation is? It isn't you, it isn't Corvik, it isn't Dangerous and it damn sure isn't Darkholme. I am the soul of this God forsaken place and now I condemn this place and its paper champion to the same fate as my own. Let Heaven close its doors because I'm the only man who can tear them down.
(The fans begin to scream as Logan begins to stir but Monroe doesn't notice, Eric does however and grabs a microphone).
Eric ~ Scott..stop this now or I swear to God..
Monroe ~ WHAT?!? WHAT CAN YOU DO THAT THIS BUSINESS HASN'T ALREADY DONE?!? You sent me to the institution, Eric, after Laps tried to weasel his way into the title picture. You didn't want me back when I came for revenge against the Family that swore to protect me. I made your championship mean something Eric, I made the E.W.C.L. mean something by winning the I.W.F.'s End of Days. I took out that buffoon Cable and tried to make those Tag Titles mean something. I've done nothing for the past year and a half but try to please you and what do I get? What do I f*cking get?
Eric ~ You get what's finally coming to you...
(Monroe narrows his eyes confused then simply shakes his head).
Monroe ~ I'll be the last Universal champion that this federation ever sees...
(Suddenly Monroe hears a voice from behind him.).
Logan ~ NO YOU WON'T!
(Monroe turns as Logan grabs him by the throat. Monroe tries to struggle but it's to late, Darkholme drives a hard right into his face then spins him around and throws him from the top off the Cazzo-Tron. Monroe plummets through the air and hits the stage below, tearing through it continuing. Eric suddenly looks up at Logan and begins screaming as E.M.T.s rush down to ringside).
Logan ~ Scott...you wanted us to be over..well now our partnership might be over but so is your career.
(Eric then drops down from the stage and heads beneath, checking on the battered and broken Monroe. From the audience a woman jumps over the guardrail, the guards unable to catch her. Racheal Everhart runs alongside the stage only to see the E.M.T.s putting Monroe on the stretcher. She looks at Eric who can't speak, then to Darkholme who only smiles down with a sadistic face...)
