"Runnin with the Devil" by Van Halen hits as laser lights and spot lights overtake a darkened arena.... Mercy comes down, wearing blue jeans, the new "Bryan Mercy, Defender of Justice" T-Shirt, a black leather jacket, and a blue bandana around his head, keeping his hair back. Silver Ray-bans, just hiding his eyes. When he gets to the ring, he goes to the ringside table, grabs a mic, And begins to climb the cage. Once he gets to the top his voice is heard.
Bryan Mercy: Cut the music! Ladies and gentlemen, tonight, we crown the NEW United States Heavyweight Champion of the World. This is my match, one that I chose to even the odds. And now, I'm about to introduce my key holder....I give you, my mentor himself.
"Sympathy for the Devil" by the Rolling Stones comes on, and out walks an absolute mammoth, black man, standing 7', weighing close to 450 pounds. He's wearing a tight "Bryan Mercy and the Equalizer" T-Shirt, black dockers, a black sports jacket, and black wrap-around sunglasses. He stands next to the ring announcer and stares him down. Taking his key to the cage, he stands there, watching over Mercy.
Bryan Mercy: Listen here, you son of a bitch, I know what you've done. Let me get rid of that other piece of shit Williams first, then I'll kick your sorry ass later. Now, Jamie, get your sorry ass down here, and let's rock and roll!
Craig Conners: His opponent and current U.S. Champion he is the Heir to the Future. He is the Master of the Cutting Edge. He stands in at 6'0 tall and weighs in at 225 pounds. He is Jamie Williams!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Torn" by Creed hits the speakers and the curtains part after a slight delay. Jamie strolls out onto the rampway and raises both arms. Flesh steps through beside him. Machine in hand, and the lock and key hanging from the Machine. The two walk down side by side. As Jamie comes to the doorway of the curtain he turns to Flesh. The two confer for a moment and without a bit of waiting Flesh climbs the cage, quickly, and with stealth. He hits the top and moves to mid cage, Machine close in hand. Jamie steps inside the ring and moves to the corner. Flesh turns towards the entrance way and with a slight wave of the Machine the curtain parts once more. This time it's Extreme Warrior who steps through the curtain. Slowly he makes his way down to ringside and steps in front of the door as it is locked by the referee. EW pulls a chair out and sets it by the rail for close keeping. The camera moves back to Jamie as he grins and steps towards mid ring. Flesh turning back to whomever Bryan's key holder is keeping a close eye on him.
Elisha: The cage is in place and we should be ready to go here shortly. This is much anticipated and could be a classic between a couple of high flyers claiming to be the best in the business.
Marty: Neither man is a slouch and they had a classic match in the tournament. So it should be pretty entertaining but with all the attention on the outside I wonder how long it will stay one on one.
Doug: So true but you gotta be excited. You can cut it with a knife here it's so thick.
Quickly Williams hits a dropkick to the knee of Mercy. He jumps up on to the second turnbuckle and nails a corkscrew plancha. He then picks Mercy up and nails an inseguri kick and Mercy goes down hard. While down Williams's tries for a standing moonsault but Mercy got his knees up. Williams doubles over in pain. Mercy grabs the back of Williams's head and smashes it into the cage. Williams bounces back and nails hard on the mat. He picks him up again and does it again this time busting Williams open.
Marty: Williams caught Mercy off guard by taking Mercy to the air. He hit a couple of spectacular moves until he missed that last one.
Doug: It looks like Mercy is out for blood this time. He is really aggressive.
Elisha: This is everything we thought it would be and a little more.
Mercy then tries for a third time but this time Williams blocks it and sends Mercy into the Cage. He then quickly springboards off the middle rope and nails a kick to Mercy's face. He then drags Mercy towards a corner and he nails a split legged moonsault. He then whips Mercy into the corner and he follows in with a Monkey Flip except Mercy lands on his feet and hits a sidekick to Williams's jaw. Mercy quick to the air as he nails a missile dropkick on Williams as Williams gets to his feet. He then runs to another corner and he waits for Williams to get up as he tries another but Williams's just throws him off hard to the mat.
Elisha: This match is fast paced and with these two high flyers in there you could only expect it.
Doug: Yeah both men have hit some spectacular aerial moves but the question is who will make the big mistake>
Marty: I think Jamie's experience in these matches will help him alot in battling with Mercy.
Jamie then whips Mercy into the ropes and he nails a hurricaranna. As Mercy slowly gets up Jamie follows up with a flying headscissor take down. Jamie still on the attack as he tries to powerbomb Mercy but Mercy reaches out and nails a facebuster on the mat to Williams. Mercy follows that up with a body slam. He then bounces off the ropes and does a forward roll into a splash. He goes and climbs the top rope as Williams slowly gets to his feet. Mercy jumps off into a high cross body. Williams however recognizes it and rolls out of the way as Mercy hits hard to the mat.
Marty: Man I'm losing my breath just watching these two bees buzzing around the ring.
Doug: They make an old man's eyes blurry trying to keep up with these two.
Elisha: We go from Fiery Computer lounge Match to a World title match to a Thunder Dome match with all these high-risk maneuvers. What a night for Big East Wrestling.
Both men kip up and stare each other down. Mercy moves first but Williams reaches in his trunks and produces powder and he throws powder into his eyes. He follows that up with a suplex. He then picks Mercy up and he whips him headfirst into the cage. Then he does it again on the opposite side. Mercy busted open with the second one. Jamie then slaps on a Texas Cloverleaf.
Marty: This is smart Jamie's trying to ground Mercy. So he can't fly as fast.
Elisha: Mercy's in a little bit of trouble here he needs to find a way out of this hold and fast.
Doug: It seems Jamie has the advantage as he is a little larger and more experienced than Mercy.
Mercy kicks out of The Texas Cloverleaf as he tries to get to his feet. Williams charges at him and Mercy steps aside as he sends Williams to the cage. He then picks up Williams's by the knee and drops him into his own knee. He quickly follows that up with a figure four. Jamie screams out in pain as Mercy cinches it in.
Elisha It looks now like Mercy has got the same plan that Williams had.
Marty: Its smart wrestling Elisha.
Doug: It gives you a chance to breathe while your opponent is getting worn out.
Mercy releases the hold and picks Jamie up and body slams him hard to the mat. He then climbs the turnbuckles, appearing to go for the belt, then scales across the top of the cage, starts to swing back and forth, and executes a senton splash onto Jamie. He then leaps up on top of the cage again and he waits as Jamie gets to his feet. Jamie does and he leaps up and nails a textbook hurricaranna. Mercy then picks up Williams for his spinebuster but Williams gouges his eyes and drops him. Williams follows up with a dropkick to the knee of Mercy. Williams picks up Mercy and drops him for a brainbuster. Williams makes the signal for Flesh. Flesh then drops the key.
Elisha: It looks like Williams may be going for the Cutting Edge. This could be it.
Marty: This has been a hell of a match. Too bad someone's gotta lose.
Doug: Yeah but it's the way of the World. Nothing makes for better T.V. than two guys giving it their all and knowing only one is gonna walk away a winner.
Williams goes for it as Mercy rolls out of the way. Mercy quickly nails the Mercy Killer. And Williams is cinched into the boston crab. Williams reaches for a small retractable billy club from the inside of his belt. He retrieves it as fast as possible and slams the club across the back and legs of Mercy to take him down. Williams then starts to look for the key he dropped. He finds it and now he starts to climb the cage for the belt. Mercy is back up and nails Williams with a punch. He flips Williams around. He nails a top rope Frankenstiener. Both men are down.
Doug: This match has been fantastic.
Marty: Yeah you can say that again
Elisha: The question is who is gonna get up first and grab the belt and the key? That's on the mat.
Mercy manages to get to his feet And he climbs the cage he is almost there as Williams gets to his feet. He grabs at the legs of Mercy and Mercy lunges as the Belt is knocked to the mat. Mercy's bodyguard then hands Mercy his key as he does this, the ring apron begins to burn. Williams looks around terrified for he can't find his key. Quickly the ring apron is burned up and the ring begins to burn. A mysterious man pops up in mid ring amongst the flames and Mercy with a terrified cry grabs the belt catches the lock and dives over the top rope burning his chest slightly and hits the door popping it open. Only to run smack into the group waiting for him that piled at the entrance. The crew runs down to try and put out the flames as the mysterious man and Jamie Williams stand in mid flame.
Craig Conners: Your Winner and new U.S. champion, "Flyin" Bryan Mercy!!!!!!!!!!
Elisha: Oh my God did you see that? I can't believe it I can't believe this night. Who's this new guy?
Marty: I'm sure Merrix will have a few words to say to Williams about this whenever he gets back into the fold. I'm sure he won't be too happy about his ring getting burned up.
Doug: This one's not over yet The MoA is out in full and already smacked down Mercy's bodyguard.
The MoA is pummeling Mercy outside the ring. They beat him down with bats and chairs and he is a bloody mess. Mercy tries to fight back but the odds are too great. As he gets powerbombed onto the concrete floor. They nail a few boots as they leave .
Marty: Fans, we've got nothing to say but. Good night from Washington and Capitol Punishment! Thanks for joining us on this historic night! I'm Marty Scott for Elisha Johnson and Doug Torres saying, so long!
