The show opens with a video package. We see a silhouette of a man encased in a glass tube. He is bound by a straightjacket and is leaning against the glass. Screams can be heard in the distance. A deep voiced narrator speaks from somewhere unknown
"We all have demons in our souls."
The man in the tube's face is blurred for short periods of time as the camera goes into fast motion. The man bangs his head against the glass, and the screams get louder.
"Demons trapped from within."
The camera turns at an angle, and we now see an entire row of men in straightjackets banging against glass tubes. They bang their heads on the glass in synch with the starting beat of the opening bass of a song starting up.
"Demons trying to escape."
The glass of each tube starts cracking. The men in straightjackets are now starting to bleed from their foreheads, but it doesn't matter to them. They just continue to try and break free.
"Little do they know...that there is..."
The song's chorus kicks in.
"NO ESCAPE!"
The camera now cuts to many of the SFT wrestler participating in matches, specifically those in the Elimination Chamber match. As the song plays we see clips of the past few weeks.
"No escape from the enemy!"
Dangerous Alliance attacking members of the SFT roster, especially Big T.
"No escape from the past!"
We now see SwitchBlade and Gary match fighting from their previous match at the last pay per view.
"No escape from the challenge!"
We see the match between Johnny Fierce and Big T ending with Fierce holding the belt in the center of the ring.
"No escape from sanity!"
The music pauses and we get a multi camera viewing of the elimination chamber descending down to the ring. Then come small cutaways of every participant in the chamber match. First the National Title contenders, then the World Title.
"No escape from pain!"
Lion starts knocking down people in a battle royal match.
"From torment!"
Cut to Big T falling off the top of a ramp courtesy of Johnny Fierce.
"From suffering!"
Sean Lane lies on the floor handcuffed to a guardrail.
"From fame!"
Brice McQueen knocks out Fierce in the center of the ring while he's not looking.
"From destiny!"
Gary Mac looks out to the fans and gestures a belt wrapped around his waist.
"From the end!"
A cut to a black and white shot of SwitchBlade looking down in a despondent manner.
The music continues, and all the wrestlers start fighting not only each other, but other people from their past. As they fight, an image of the elimination chamber is superimposed over them.
"No escape from the chamber! No escape...and no salvation."
The music fades and the video cuts to the man in the glass tube from before, now lying motionless against the glass, blood trickling down.
"SFT proudly presents...NO ESCAPE!"
The music starts up again and we now see the fans in attendance going crazy for the start of the show. Pyro shoots out from the top of the ramp in a glorious synchronization of colors and patterns. One final explosion later, and the spotlights turn back on as we get a wide view of the arena.
RW: Hello everyone and welcome to SFT No Escape. We're coming at you live from the Namihaya Dome in Osaka, Japan, and what a show we have for you tonight!
JC: Don't get me started, Randy. This show is going to be amazing! We've got title matches galore, and not one but TWO Elimination Chamber matches!
RW: That's right, folks. The tag titles will be on the line when Mojo Rising defends against Kyle Murphy and Josh Konnely also known as War and Famine. Then we have Currupt defending his Hardcore title against Dangerous Alliance member Kenny Rogers.
JC: And later on we'll have the CWC Showcase Champion Rachel Cole defending her Showcase title against the one and only Gary Mac. I can't wait for that one! New champion, baby!
RW: And of course we have our elimination chamber matches. The first will be for the National Title as Jackson Steed defends the gold against Emerson, Twilight, Erik Dean, Sean Lane, and Lionel Kingston!
JC: And the second chamber match will be for the World Title as newly crowned champion Johnny Fierce defends his title against Big T, Brice McQueen, SwitchBlade, and Gary Mac! Double champion, baby!
RW: Redd was supposed to be in the main event as well, but unfortunately he missed his flight and wasn't able to get here in time for the show.
JC: Sucks to be him!
RW: Please Johnny, show a little courtesy.
JC: Sorry. I meant...sucks to be him!
RW: That wasn't any different.
JC: I held my pinky out that time.
RW: Good lord...
Match Number One KYLE MURPHY & JOSH KONNELY [War & Famine] versus
JACKSON STEED & NIC DIESEL [Mojo Rising] (c) ( Standard Tag Team Match - Tag Team Championships )
RW: We're kicking things off with the tag title match.
JC: Mojo Rising once again defend their titles against Kyle Murphy and Josh Konnely.
RW: The War and Famine boys want those titles back, but Jackson Steed and Nic Diesel won't give them up that easily.
JC: Let's not forget that Steed also has to defend his National title later tonight in the Elimination Chamber match. If he hurts himself in this match, he'll be screwed later on!
RW: It could be a very good night or a very ugly night for Steed. Let's go the ring and see what happens.
The camera cuts to Robyn in the ring, but before she can say anything "Faster" by Within Temptation starts to play. The crowd boos like crazy as Kave Blackwell and Chris Titan appear from behind the curtain. They head down the ramp strutting their way to the ring.
RW: What's the meaning of this? Who invited those two down here?
JC: Hey, maybe they're looking to get in on the tag title match.
RW: The match was already made, they can't just JUMP into it!
But instead of entering the ring, Blackwell and Titan walk around the ring and make their way to the commentary table. They mock a few of the fans before getting behind the table and finding a place to seat.
RW: Well it looks like they'll be joining us.
JC: Here guys, put these on. It's a pleasure to have you both on here.
Kave puts his headset on first, followed by Chris. Both men sit down between Randy and Johnny.
Kave: Thanks, Johnny. And before you poke your nose into our business Randy, we're permitted to be here.
Chris: Seeing as how we're the top contenders for the tag titles, it's only fair that the two of us get to sit here and watch the tag title match on behalf of Dangerous Alliance.
JC: Makes sense to me, boys.
RW: Well...as long as you two don't get involved.
Kave: Would we ever lie to you, Randy?
RW: I wouldn't put it past you.
JC: Don't mind him, boys. He always has a rod up his ass when it comes to special guests.
Can we please just move on?
"We Are One" by 12 Stones hits the loudspeakers as scenes of war, famine, disease, and death flash across the StrikeTron. The words PESTILENCE, WAR, FAMINE, and DEATH flash over each corresponding scene. Josh Konnely walks out first, followed by Kyle Murphy. The crowd boos as half of Revelation makes their way down the aisle, ignoring their response.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your opening match of the evening and it is scheduled for one fall. First making their way to the ring, the challengers, at a combined weight of 463 pounds, Josh Konnely and "The Superior One" Kyle Murphy...WAR AND FAMINE!
Josh walks up the ring steps as Kyle steps directly onto the apron. Konnely stands on the middle rope in the corner, outside the ring, as Murphy steps over the top rope. Josh then jumps over the top rope to the canvas from his perch on the second rope. Konnely holds up a "V for victory" while Murphy drops to a knee and raises his fist.
RW: And the challengers look ready to go. Kyle and Josh have shown themselves to be perfectly in synch with one another. They will be tough competition for the champs.
JC: Speaking of tough competition, how do you guys feel about Kyle and Josh?
Kave: Those religious zealots aren't worthy of shining our shoes. They're lower class compared to guys like us. With what Nightwolf pays us and with that the SFT pays us, that combined makes the D.A. four of the highest paid wrestlers in this company. The fact is, we can do what we want because money brings that kind of power. The kind that those two wannabes just don't have.
Chris: We fly in style, Randy. We don't fly with the common man. Nightwolf is a billionaire, hence the four of us have access to a few private jets. We fly in style to these loser countries.
RW: Guys, this is only a three hour show. Let's wrap it up.
Kave: You better watch what you say, little man. I can easily buy you out and toss your ass on the streets!
JC: Haaa...Randy's street trash.
The intro to "Beast Mode" by B.O.B. starts up as a strobe light that flashes multi-colors starts going off through the arena. Pyros go off as Jackson Steed steps from behind the curtains bent over with his hands out like an airplane. He has on his trademark designed tights and boots. He is also wearing his trademark sunglasses down to the ring tonight as he steps out for us to see, he whirls around at the top of the stage like a plane. Nic Diesel comes out behind him looking as menacing as ever. Both men have the SFT tag titles wrapped around their waists. Steed then stands up and gives the crowd a smile as he starts to walk down to the ring as the video goes into slow motion on the jumbotron.
Robyn: And their opponents, at a combined weight of 540 pounds, they are the SFT Tag Team Champion, Jackson Steed and Nic Diesel...MOJO RISING!
Jackson Steed and Nic Diesel walk down to the ring giving fans high fives as they cheer them on their way to the ring. Jackson keeps the smile on his face as he walks up the ring steps and wipes his feet off on the apron. He raises a hand up to the crowd as they give him a loud pop. He then climbs between the second and top rope into the ring and runs across the ring to the turnbuckle. Diesel grabs the ring ropes, hoists himself up on the apron, and cautiously steps through them. Steed jumps to the top and raises his hands as he looks through the crowd he takes his sunglasses off and throws them to one lucky female. Jackson steps down from the turnbuckle and begins warming up for the match along with Diesel.
RW: The challengers look pumped, but I hope they have a plan to go with all that adrenaline.
JC: They've gotten out of a couple tricky situations in the past, but Konnely and Murphy are persistent. They'll be able to get the job done.
Kave: Those two morons couldn't form a strategy for hopscotch! I, on the other hand, am without a doubt one of the smartest men in SFT. I have a Masters Degree in Engineering and a Doctorate in Economics from the University of Southern California. The world belongs to people like me, I can take a job with ANY Fortune 500 company in the world, yet I choose to wrestle because it is what I love to do.
RW: You also love to hear yourself talk it seems.
Chris: You shut your mouth and do your job, White!
RW: With all due respect "gentlemen", doing my job requires me to open my mouth.
JC: Damn it Randy, you're going to get your ass kicked, and I won't be there to clean your wounds.
Robyn exits the ring, and referee Allan Kain calls for the bell. It rings, and the match begins. Josh and Nic start things off for their teams while Kyle and Steed remain on the apron. Nic and Josh tie up, but Konnely quickly breaks it off with an elbow to the head. He then grabs Nic's right arm, twists it, and turns it into an arm wrench. He elbows Diesel's arm a couple times before walking over to Kyle and tagging him in. Murphy enters, grabs Diesel's arm and twists it some more. He elbows the arm a few times, tags in Josh, and switches with him once again. Konnely grabs the same arm and twists it some more.
RW: Sound strategy by Josh and Kyle. Their frequent tags are allowing them to deal extra damage to Nic.
JC: I haven't seen that kind of tagging since the eighties!
Konnely, still holding Nic's arm, tags Kyle again, and this time Murphy climbs to the top rope. Kyle holds Nic's arm out, and Murphy lands an axe handle right in the center of the arm. Nic cries out in pain but has no times to recuperate as Kyle now twists the arm right into a hammerlock. He then pushes Nic right into his team's turnbuckle. Konnely grabs hold of Nic's arm while Kyle steps back a bit. The referee counts out Konnely, but all Kyle needs is less than five seconds to run and boot Nic's exposed arm. Diesel clutches his arm and falls to his knees.
RW: What a boot to the arm. That could have blown out Nic's arm.
Chris: THIS is one half of the tag champs? It's pathetic. We could beat both these teams easily.
RW: Just like how the Ge Straight Alliance beat you easily?
Kave: Let me tell you something, Randy. We looked past the Ge Straight Alliance, let's face facts. We were focused on the Tag Team Champions, and the champs, whoever they end up being, have to know who is facing them next...which, needless to say, is us!
Chris: We are four men of a single purpose, victory at all costs. It doesn't matter to us who we have to go through to win, we will do it and we won't stop until we get what we want. As far as tonight, believe me we're gonna make an impact. We are going to show the SFT that we are for real and here to stay. After tonight, no one will question our intentions again."
RW: Needless to say, and yet you say so much.
Chris: Is he always like this, Johnny?
JC: 24/7, I'm afraid.
Murphy tags in Konnely and swaps places with him. Josh then carries Nic over to the center of the ring, brings him down by the arm, and locks in the Lebell lock submission hold he likes to call Consuming Fire. Steed notices the submission and steps in to help, but Murphy comes running into the ring as well and he boots Steed right in the face. Jackson gets right back up, but a kick to the guy later and he finds himself on the receiving end of a gutwrench powerbomb courtesy of the Superior One.
RW: WOAH! Murphy just hit Steed with the Manhattan Project from out of nowhere!
JC: And Konnely has his submission hold locked in on Nic.
Seconds later, the pain in Nic's arm is too much to handle and he is forced to tap out. Josh gets up and celebrates with Kyle as "We Are One" plays once more.
RW: That's it! They got the win!
JC: Really? Just like that?!
Kave: I'm not impressed at all.
Chris: That was a waste of our time.
Nic rolls away from Josh clutching his injured arm. Steed is starting to move, but has to use the ropes to pick himself up. The referee offers Kyle and Josh the tag title belts.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, the winners of this match and the NEW SFT Tag Team Champions, Josh Konnely and Kyle Murphy...WAR AND FAMINE!
Josh and Kyle hold up their belts as the fans boo them all the way to the back. Steed goes over to Nic and checks his friend's arm to see if he's seriously hurt.
RW: It's an unfortunate event, but the relentless assault on Nic Diesel's arm was all it took for Josh and Kyle to gain the quick win and regain their titles.
JC: And this night could go from bad to worse for Steed. He still has the National title to defend.
Kave: Chris, I say you and I should make better use of our time.
Chris: I agree.
As SFT workers help Steed carry Nic to the back, Dangerous Alliance take off their headsets, dash away from the table, and slide into the ring. They knock down the officials and gang up on the former tag champs. Titan spins Steed around and spin kicks him right in the face sending him off his feet. Kave goes over to Nic, grabs the injured arm and stomps on it a couple times, laughing as he does this.
RW: Come on now! This isn't right! They shouldn't be doing this!
JC: Well they technically didn't interfere with the match.
RW: Screw technicalities, this is wrong!
Chris lifts up a disoriented Steed and hits the Titan Driver on him. He rolls Steed out of the ring and spits in his direction. Kave grabs Nic and lifts him up. He hoists Nic over his head and drops him with a side shoulder slam right on the bad arm. Blackwell gets up, kicks Nic out of the ring, and he and Chris Titan celebrate their attack as "Faster" plays once more. Kyle and Josh, meanwhile, have watched the whole thing from a distance. They raise their newly won belts up while Kave and Chris stare back, their intentions fully known.
RW: Well I hate to say it, but Dangerous Alliance have once again made their impression, but it came at the expense of Mojo Rising, and perhaps Nic Diesel's arm.
JC: Win or lose, this group always seems to be able to accomplish their goals. I'd say a tag title run isn't too far off in their future.
Match Number Two DRAKE DRUMMONDS versus
BRUCE KINGSTON ( Standard Match )
RW: Up next we have the debut of Drake Drummonds as he takes on the scientologist Bruce Kingston.
JC: Drake has had a bit of time to talk he has been around backstage proving he has a big game to talk.
The arena lights become dim. "Go hard, today Can't worry about the past 'cause that ye-sterday I'm a put it on the line 'cause it's my time Hey, hey, hey, hey Gotta stay on my grind 'cause it's my time (hey) My time (hey), my time (hey) If you're with me let me hear you say, (come on, come on) My my, my my, if you're with me, let me hear you say My my, my my, oh, it's my time" The song's entrance blares through the sound system as the lights begin to flicker swiftly. The arena becomes pitch black for a few seconds. The lights come back on & Drake is standing at the entrance with his back to the ring & arms spread out. Pyro goes off along the border of the entrance ramp. He finally turns around, extremely hyped & begins walking down the ramp. He slides into the ring & spins around. He climbs one of the turnbuckles & raises both arms in the arm.
JC: He looks ready Randy, what do you think his chances are against Bruce Kingston?
RW: I'll be honest I liked Bruce but over the past few weeks he hasn't been the same guy who walked in here and stormed around shouting Tom Cruise Tom Cruise. He should be walking about screaming I Lose I lose.
JC: Is that your best play on words Randy?
RW: Here it rhymes so it will do me, lets go Drake, beat this scientologist emo kid.
JC: What does that have to do with anything?
RW: I don't know I just wanted to waste time before Bruce comes out.
His music plays and he comes out.
RW: What an entrance from Bruce, entrance of the night.
JC: Sarcasm Randy?
RW: It very well could be John but knowing Bruce that will be the best comment he receives.
The bell rings and Bruce Kingston hits a spear from the beginning on Drake Drummonds, the crowd erupt as Bruce goes for the pin but doesn't even get a one count. Bruce pulls him up but from nowhere Drake hits the Diamond Sharpner and covers Bruce Kingston.
REF: 1...2...3 Bell Rings.
Drake gets up celebrating in the middle of the ring the fans are cheering him.
JC: Drake Drummonds not only pulls of an upset but a quick victory.
RW: That was almost as quick as Bruce's entrance lets hope Bruce lasts longer in bed John.
JC: Again what does that have to do with any of this?
RW: I don't know he is just too quick at everything, getting to the ring and getting beat are almost the same speed.
JC: Randy have a Pepsi and chill out.
Winner: DRAKE DRUMMONDSvia Pinfall
Match Number Three GARY MAC versus
RACHEL COLE (c) ( Best 2 out of 3 Falls Match - CWC Showcase Championship )
RW: Now it's time for our inter-fed two out of three falls title match between CWC Showcase Champion Rachel Cole and SFT member Gary Mac.
JC: And from what I've heard, Gary is NOT in a good mood today. He was humiliated by Rachel a couple weeks back, and being put in this match PLUS the world title match shows just how much he has on his plate.
RW: And on top of that, we don't know anything about Rachel Cole's in ring ability. I wonder how she'll manage against an aggressive opponent like Mac.
JC: Well she's the champ for a reason, Randy. Of course, that won't last long once Gary gets his hands on her.
RW: Who will get the last laugh in this first ever SFT versus CWC match?!
The camera cuts to Robyn Byrne standing in the ring.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, this is a two out of three falls match for the CWC Showcase Championship!
~PERFECTION HAS ARRIVED~
Appears on the tron and then the lights in the arena blackout, a green spotlight begins searching throughout the arena, the fans begin to boo. The spotlight goes faster and faster, the guitar rift can be heard, the spotlight gets even faster than the opening of "Butterflies and Hurricanes" By Muse begins to blare out and the spotlight stops on the entrance way. The Lights stay out as the fans booing become louder.
Gary Mac then walks out from the back with his black wrestling tights on with green lightning down each side. With the Words "The Real Deal" inscribed onto the back of it. The fans boo as Mac wears a Black T-Shirt with the words Too Fucking Good inscribed onto the front of it. Gary Mac smirks towards the fans and then begins to head towards the ring, walking past the fans and as he does he spits on one while wiping his forehead and throwing the sweat onto the fans.
Robyn: Coming out first, the challenger, from San Antonio, Texas and weighing in at 227 pounds, he is "The Real Deal"...GARY MAC!
Mac reaches the ring and he leaps up onto the ring apron. Gary turns around and poses for the fans before leaping over the top rope and landing on his feet. Mac then takes of his T-Shirt and climbs the nearest turnbuckle. Mac poses once more before throwing the T-Shirt into the crowd and then jumping down and waiting for his opponent.
RW: Gary has made a big impact ever since returning to SFT. He's beaten some of the best, and could very well be on his way to winning the world title later tonight.
JC: Finally you're talking sense, Randy. Give the man the respect he deserves!
RW: Don't get me wrong, Johnny. I still think he's a jerk and a coward. There's no denying that.
JC: None of that matter when you're the best in the company, Randy.
The lights suddenly go out in the arena momentarily. Red lips appear on the StrikeTron and they yell out the words "Cult Classic!" With that a screeching guitar bursts from the P.A system. Blue lights begin to flash on the rampway as "Cult Classic" appears on the tron like the text of the movie Jaws. "Search and Destroy" by Skunk Anansie starts to play. "The Cult Classic" Rachel Cole comes out from behind the curtain. Rachel is wearing a red with black trim spandex outfit. Her top is a low cut halter top while her pants are red with "Cult Classic" printed on each side in classy Coca Cola white lettering. She also has on red gloves with black lettering on them.
Oh Yeah! Hit It!
The minute this lyric hits the P.A, she throws off her beanie gallons of water pour down from above and Rachel faces upwards as it drenches her as she opens her vest a little. Once the water finishes pouring she slides her hand through her hair. She then points towards the ring with her index finger and then makes her way to the ring.
Robyn: And his opponent, hailing from Los Angeles, California and weighing in at 130 pounds, she is the CWC Showcase Champion, "The Cult Classic"...RACHEL COLE!
While she makes her way down the ring, she still does slap fives to some of the fans in the crowd. Rachel Cole then heads to the apron and rolls onto the apron and underneath the bottom rope. She then heads over to the middle turnbuckle and does the split on them while lifting up her right arm towards the fans.
RW: Impressive athleticism by Rachel Cole, but Gary doesn't look too impressed.
Gary just watches from afar with a nasty glare as Cole gets off the turnbuckle and heads into the middle of the ring and pulls the Showcase title off of her waist and holds it up towards the loyal Cole fans in attendance. She then offers the belt to referee Austin Jolley. Austin holds the belt up for everyone to see before handing it to the timekeeper. Cole looks over at Gary and gestures for him to bring it. Gary nods and walks over to Rachel at the center. Gary towers over Rachel, but the champ doesn't look too nervous about it.
RW: We've seen some amazing women wrestle in SFT over the years. Some have even been world champion. Let's see how Rachel Cole stacks up to them.
JC: Hey, compared to most women I'm sure she's great, but she's not facing a woman. She's facing Gary freakin' Mac! Big difference, Randy.
The bell sounds and the match begins. Gary looks down at Rachel and smirks. He then steps back and offers a test of strength. Cole looks up at his raised arm and raises her own, clearly not intimidated by his size. The two clasp hands and lock up. Gary uses his natural strength to overpower Cole in a matter of seconds. Rachel tries her best to fight it off, but is soon down to one knee. Gary just laughs, clearly taking pleasure in her pain. A few "Let's Go Rachel" chants start up, but the challenger just looks to the fans and mocks their chanting. The champ, now properly motivated by her fans, lifts her legs back up. She then leaps up and presses her feet against Gary's chest. She falls back and Gary finds himself being monkey flipped across the ring. Gary gets to his feet quickly and instinctively grabs the nearest ropes. Cole kips up and turns to face the unscrupulous Gary, a smirk now on her face. Mac kicks the bottom turnbuckle pad in frustration.
RW: Great move by Rachel, she sure did surprise Gary.
JC: She cheated, Randy. It was supposed to be a test of strength and she's playing games instead!
RW: Yeah, I'll be sure to knock off a couple points for that...
Gary goes over to Cole and yells a few unmentionable things to her before tying up with her once more. Gary quickly switches it up into a side headlock. Cole grabs hold of Gary and steps back into the ropes with him. She pushes him off, and on his return she falls to the mat. Gary leaps over her and bounces off the ropes again. Cole gets up and leapfrogs over Gary with ease. Mac once again runs the ropes and Rachel goes for another monkey flip attempt by falling on her back and lifting her legs up, but Gary doesn't fall for the same trick twice. He stops himself, grabs Rachel's legs, and lifts her up for a flapjack slam face first on the mat.
RW: Ooooo...that had to hurt.
JC: Aw, did her pretty face get busted up?
Cole gets back to her feet and holds her nose. Gary, not amused by what she pulled earlier, grabs her by the hair and tosses her over to the nearest turnbuckle. From there he delivers hard knife edge chops to her chest over and over again until she's nearly beet red. When he finishes he grabs her neck and squeezes it as hard as he can. The ref, spotting the blatant choke, counts out Gary.
Austin: 1, 2, 3, 4,
Gary let's go at four, but doesn't end it there. He then lifts a leg up and presses his foot against her throat, pushing down as hard as possible. The ref counts again.
RW: Come on ref, break it up! Gary's just trying to hurt her now!
JC: Hey, he wants to win, and you do what you can to win. Plus, she deserves this for trying to humiliate Gary again.
Austin: 1, 2, 3, 4,
Gary takes his foot off. Rachel clutches her neck and coughs violently. Not giving her time to recuperate, the challenger grabs Cole and whips her to the opposite turnbuckle. Gary runs towards her looking for a clothesline, but Cole manages to get a boot up that lands right on Gary's face. Mac stumbles back, but runs forward again. Rachel hops up to the middle rope, leaps over Gary, and rolls him up into a sunset flip pin.
Austin: 1...2...
Gary smacks Rachel in the head with his legs to break the count. Gary rolls himself back up to his feet beating the champ to the punch. He hits a beautiful dropkick to the face that knocks Cole through the ropes and onto the outside. The crowd boos Gary, but he shrugs them off and steps outside to follow Cole.
RW: And already the match is taken outside.
JC: Gary, don't forget that you can't win the belt on a count out!
RW: He can't hear you, Johnny.
JC: He hears me in his heart.
RW: That's disturbing.
Rachel gets back on her feet, but before she can react Gary comes after her with a kick to the gut followed by a shove right into the barricade. Mac then grabs Cole by the head and tosses her right into the ring apron. The referee starts counting both wrestlers.
Austin: 1...2...3...4...
Gary grabs Rachel's arm and irish whips her towards the steel steps. However, instead of hitting them, Cole leaps up on top of the steps and moonsaults right on top of Gary causing the two of them to fall. Rachel gets to het feet first and immediately jumps up on the apron.
Austin: ...5...6...
Rachel waits for Gary to get to his feet. When he does Cole runs off the apron and lands a lighting fast hurricarana that excites the crowd.
RW: Tremendous hurricarana by Rachel Cole!
JC: Come on Gary, get up!
Rachel gets up instead and quickly jumps back into the ring before she gets counted out.
Austin: ...7...8...9...
Before the referee can hit ten, Gary makes it to his feet and rolls himself under the ropes. Rachel doesn't waste time as she picks up Gary and further disorients him with forearm shots to the head. She then runs the ropes, springboards off them and hits Gary with a tornado DDT. Rachel gets on top of Mac and makes the cover.
Austin: 1...2...
Gary kicks out. Rachel, quick as a rabbit, motions to the fans that she has a big move coming up, and sure enough she makes her way to the top rope. It looks like she's going for another moonsault, and the fans are supporting her.
RW: Looks like Cole's looking for something big right here.
Rachel goes to leap off, but notices that Gary is starting to get back up. Rachel flips back off the turnbuckle and lands on her feet, but like a possum Mac feigns injury long enough to grab an unsuspecting Rachel from behind and connect with a german suplex. With one not being enough, Gary continues to hold her as he lifts her up and drops her with a second german. He lifts her up again and drops a third german. He goes for a fourth, but Rachel is able to use her elbow to whack Gary in the head. The impact causes him to let go of her, but the Germans have already taken their effect on the champ and she falls to one knee before she's able to run. She holds the back of her head, but can do little to stop the pain. Gary sees this as a second chance, grabs Rachel from behind again, and goes for one final german suplex, but Cole manage to land on her feet, run up to Gary, and drop him with a rocker dropper from out of nowhere.
RW: Look at her go! Gary can't seem to stop her!
JC: Where is she getting this energy!?
Rachel rolls Gary over and covers him again.
Austin: 1...2...
Kick out again. Cole lifts Gary up, but the ever scheming Mac raises a hand up and pokes a thumb into her eye. Referee Austin yells at Gary for illegal conduct, but Gary could care less as he grabs the blinded Cole and drops her with a Russian leg sweep. From there he jumps on top of her and pummels her with closed fists to her face. Austin pulls at Gary's arm to get him to stop, and then starts counting again.
Austin: 1,2,3,4,
Gary stops right before the count of five, glares at Austin, and pushes him aside as he brings Rachel to her feet. She's now sporting a cut lip and a bruised cheek, but there's still enough fight in her to spit some blood right into Gary's face. Mac, now boarder lining on rage, lifts her up and drops her with a backbreaker. He keeps his knee right on Rachel's spine while pushing down on her stomach. Cole cries out due to the pain, but her fans continue to cheer her on. Austin goes over to Cole and asks if she gives up, but she shakes her head no.
Gary: You idiot!
Gary tosses Rachel off of him and rolls her on her stomach. He then sits on her back, grabs her head and applies a camel clutch. Cole strains to break free, but can find no way of escaping. Austin asks her once more if she gives up, but she shakes her head.
JC: This is stupid, Randy. She should just give up and give Gary the first fall.
RW: It's true; this is only the first fall. She doesn't want to get herself injured before the other falls take place. Then again, it doesn't look like she's the type to give up so easily.
Rachel slowly, but surely, makes her way over to the ropes. After the longest minute of her life, Rachel finally grabs hold of the middle rope and Gary is forced to break.
Austin: 1,2,3,4
Gary breaks at four and a half instead. Mac mutters to himself as he looks down at the hurt Showcase Champion. He goes over to her and lifts her up for another power move, but Rachel acts on instinct, grabs Gary's trunks, and pulls him head first into the middle turnbuckle pad. Rachel gets to her feet while holding her back. Gary, now more agitated, runs at Rachel looking to knock her head off with a clothesline, but Cole ducks, runs up the turnbuckle and leaps off right into a cross body. Gary catches her and keeps her in his arms. He goes for what appears to be a fallaway slam, but Rachel manages to wrap her arm around Gary's head and drop him with a bulldog. Rachel gets to her feet, runs up to Gary as he gets to his knees and decks him in the head with a glimmering warlock.
JC: Dance Magic Dance by Rachel Cole!
RW: Oh come on, you can't possibly know the names of her moves. She's not even part of SFT!
JC: I know all, Randy.
RW: What's that piece of paper in your hands?
JC: It's...my grocery list.
RW: That's her bio isn't it?
JC: I plead the fifth.
Cole wipes the excess blood from her lip before hooking the leg and making the cover.
Austin: 1...2...
Kick out at two and a half! Rachel, now showing signs of annoyance herself, gets up and takes Gary along with her. She grabs his arms and goes for a double arm DDT, but Gary manages to wrap his arms around her waist and land a northern lights suplex into a pin of his own.
Austin: 1...2...
Kick out. Gary rolls out of the ring presumably to catch his breath. Mac, not willing to succumb to another attack like before, grabs hold of the CWC Showcase Title and tucks it under his arm. He once again feigns injury. After a few seconds Rachel gets back up and goes over to where Gary is.
RW: Rachel doesn't see that Gary has the belt.
JC: Use it Gary! Knock her head clean off!
RW: What the hell's wrong with you?
JC: Well for one thing, I have an annoying pest for a broadcast partner.
Rachel goes to grab Gary by the hair, but Mac pulls out the belt, swings it, and decks Rachel right in the head with it. The referee never saw a thing, but has his suspicions once Rachel falls to the mat motionless. Gary hides the evidence before sliding back into the ring, pulling Rachel from the ropes, and making a cover.
Austin: 1...2...3!
Gary gets to his feet to celebrate. The ref raises his arm.
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the first fall as a result of a pin...GARY MAC!
Gary acts as if he just won the title, pointing himself out to the fans and then pointing out the "loser" Rachel Cole. Austin tells Gary to step back a bit so that Rachel can get back up. Cole struggles to get up at first, but eventually manages to do so. She holds her forehead and glares at Gary knowing what he did. The referee calls for the bell to ring a second time, and it does.
RW: And here we go with the second fall. If Gary wins this he'll be the new Showcase Champion.
JC: Halfway there, Gary! You got this!
Rachel and Gary tie up once again. Cole swings behind Gary, but Mac is quick to grab Rachel by the head and snapmare her over. Rachel gets up right away and goes for a dropkick of her own, but Gary grabs her legs and slams her down. He then goes for a sharpshooter submission, but Cole quickly scurries over to the ropes and clings to them as Austin counts out Gary.
Austin: 1,2,3
Gary lets go and waits for Cole to get back up. The two lock up once more, and this time Gary starts the advantage with a knee to the gut followed by a gutwrench suplex attempt, but Rachel wraps her legs around Gary's head before falling and lands a hurricarana into a hooked pin.
Austin: 1...2...
Kick out by the challenger. Rachel and Gary get back up, and Mac knocks her down with a clothesline. Gary goes over to a turnbuckle and jumps up to the middle rope. He waits for Rachel to get to her feet, and when she does he leaps off and hits a flipping neckbreaker on her.
JC: And Rachel Cole just got the Knock Out blow!
RW: Clever...
Gary washes his hands clean of the match and makes the cover.
Austin: 1...2...
Cole kicks out.
JC: WHAT? HOW?!
RW: Rachel is persistent, I'll give her that. She just keeps going.
Gary grabs Cole, lifts her up, and places her between his legs. He then lifts her up over his shoulders looking for an outsider's edge, but Cole manages to slip down behind Gary, flip herself through his legs, and sunset flip him into a surprise pin.
Austin: 1...2...3!
Cole rolls out of the way as Gary gets to his feet, stunned at what just happened. The ref goes over to Cole and raises her arm up.
JC: NO! NO! She stole that win right from Gary!
RW: All she did was pin him. And she didn't need a belt to do it.
Robyn: The winner of the second fall as a result of a pin...RACHEL COLE!
Gary goes over to the ref and grabs him by the cuff of his shirt. He yells at him to take it back, but Austin shakes his head and pushes Mac off of him. Gary, not wanting to risk a disqualification, steps back and retreats to a corner, clearly disgusted by the whole situation. Cole takes a deep breath and leans against the ropes to save her strength. After a few seconds Austin calls for the third bell. It sounds, and Gary quickly goes over to Rachel. Instead of tying up he gets right to throwing punch after punch to her face. He pushes the champ into a turnbuckle and throws shoulder tackles right into her abdomen. After numerous strikes, Gary grabs hold of Cole, wraps an arm around his neck, and snap suplexes him. He floats over and hits another snap suplex, then a third. Gary stands over the fallen champ and spits at her direction. The fans boo, he couldn't care less as he grabs hold of her legs and applies a Boston crab.
RW: And there's the Boston Crab, Gary is known for causing many to suffer with this move.
JC: This HAS to be it, Randy. Cole can't get out of this one!
Gary pulls harder and harder on her legs. Austin asks Cole if she gives up, but she still doesn't. Cole drags herself towards the ropes, inch by inch, and soon it looks like she's going to make it, but Gary pulls her back and keeps the hold locked in. Rachel pulls at her own hair to get herself to not tap out.
RW: They're one and one, and this fall will determine who walks away with the Showcase title! Rachel just won't give it up!
JC: She has to, or else she's going to have her legs broken courtesy of Gary Mac!
More "Rachel" chants start up, and Cole starts moving herself to the ropes again. Eventually, through time and endurance, the champ proves herself to the SFT fans by grabbing the bottom rope. The ref tells Gary to let go.
Austin: 1,2,3,4,
Gary hesitates at first, but finally lets go. Mac looks down at the visibly hurt Rachel and nods in approval. To him, it's only a matter of time. Mac grabs Cole, hoists her up, and sets her up for a power move. Sure enough he lifts her up and drops her with a sitout powerbomb. He then grabs her legs again and goes for the Boston Crab once more.
JC: This is it! This is it!
Cole presses her arms against the mat and resists the urge to flip around knowing that it would lead to her defeat. Instead she pulls her legs in and then pushes Gary right off of him. Rachel rolls back onto her feet and waits for Gary to face her. Rachel darts forward for a clothesline to send him down, but Gary ducks, grabs Cole from behind and hits yet another german suplex. Gary tries to make another trifecta out of it, but Cole runs backwards and squishes Gary into a turnbuckle. Gary releases, and Rachel steps onto the apron. From there she leaps up on the top turnbuckle, jumps, and drops Gary with a top rope bulldog!
RW: Bulldog off the top! Will that be all?!
Rachel flips Gary over and covers.
Austin: 1...2...
Gary barely kicks out. Not even Rachel can believe it. Cole quickly grabs hold of Gary and shoves him into the turnbuckle. Rachel then turns to the turnbuckle across from Gary, goes over to it, and climbs it to the top.
RW: What's she planning to do here?
JC: Whatever it is, it won't work!
The champ looks to her fans, points at Gary, and to everyone's shock she starts running across the top rope. Halfway down the rope she leaps off and dropkicks Gary right in the face! The fans erupt into cheers.
RW: Holy shit!
JC: Holy shit!
RW: She just walked across those ropes!
JC: That's straight up ninja shit, Randy!
Gary stumbles forward before falling flat on his face. He rolls onto his back, and Rachel looks ready to end things right here. Cole runs up to Mac, stops in her track, and flips into a standing shooting star press, but Gary lifts his knees up in time and the champ gets the wind knocked out of her. Gary slowly gets to his feet while Rachel gasps for air. The challenger then spins Rachel around and drops her with an inverted DDT. Both Gary and Rachel remain motionless on the mat.
RW: A last ditch effort by Gary takes down Rachel, but he can't seem to capitalize on it!
JC: All Gary needs to do is place an arm over her and it'll all be over.
RW: So basically he should do what he does on most of his dates.
JC: ...shut up!
The ref starts the count on both wrestlers.
Austin: 1...2...3...4...5...6...
Gary starts to move.
Austin: ...7...8...
Rachel starts to stir as well. By the count of nine both Gary and Cole are back to their feet. They run the ropes on opposite ends, and having had the same idea, they clothesline each other back down. Austin starts counting again.
Austin: 1...2...3...4...5...
They're getting up quicker now, but Gary has a slight lead. When he comes to he gestures for Rachel to lift her head up. She does, and Gary goes for a crescent kick to her face, but the champ ducks it, springboards off the ropes, and lands a tidal wave kick right to Gary's face. The crowd groans as Mac staggers back, but hasn't fallen yet. Cole then runs the ropes once more, cartwheels in front of Gary, and grabs him by the waist dropping him with a powerbomb!
JC: Where the hell are these moves coming from?! What WAS that?
RW: That's called a cartwheel bomb, Johnny. Very hard to do, but Rachel
once again shows how skilled she is as a high flyer.
JC: Would you for once support SFT? They pay you!
RW: I call it like I see it, Johnny. Maybe you should try that sometime.
Rachel pins Gary's legs down over his head and covers.
Austin: 1...2...
KICK OUT! Cole falls on her butt and shakes her head wondering what the hell it's going to take to pin this guy. While she ponders this, Gary rolls himself back up, his head pounding from the impact, and catches Rachel off guard with a side kick to the head. Mac then grabs Rachel's legs and looks for an elevated Boston Crab, but Rachel manages to kick Gary off into the ropes. Mac bounces back, Rachel meets him with another kick, and then connects with the Ranhei into a pin.
RW: She hit the Ranhei!
JC: What does that mean?!
Austin makes the cover.
Austin: 1...2...3!
RW: It means she just won!
Gary kicks out half a second too late. Rachel releases Gary and collapses on the mat, exhausted from having one hell of a match. The ref calls for the bell.
JC: I don't believe it! This can't be!
RW: But it is! Rachel Cole did it!
Ref Austin helps Rachel to her feet and raises her arm up. "Search and Destroy" plays once more as Cole is handed her Showcase title
Robyn: Ladies and gentlemen, the winner of the third fall, and STILL CWC Showcase Champion...RACHEL COLE!
Rachel raises the belt high over her head and the fans cheer her on. Gary gets back up and shakes his head in disbelief, not willing to accept that he lost to her.
JC: This is a travesty! A dark day for SFT! Gary Mac was robbed! TWICE!
RW: If you call "getting pinned" robbed, then I suppose he was. There's no denying that Rachel Cole proved to everyone here that her talents go beyond her gender.
JC: I'm denying it!
RW: And let's not forget...Gary STILL has the world title main event to wrestle in.
JC: How can he do that? He just had one hell of a match with Cole, and you expect him to wrestle in the Elimination Chamber? NO! I won't allow it!
RW: It's not up to you, buddy. But for now, let Rachel celebrate her big win.
Cole walks over to Gary and offers a handshake. Mac looks down at her hand, and then at her. He gives her a dirty look, brushes past her, and exits the ring. Cole shrugs and, after a short celebration, makes her way to the back as well.
RW: It looks like Gary's mood just got far, far worse.
JC: I hate to be the poor saps stuck in a chamber with him!
Winner: RACHEL COLE
Match Number Four TONY SNYDER versus
MICHAEL ORTON ( Standard Match )
Tony struts to the ring making eyes at all the beautiful women in the crowd, once in the ring he poses on the corner in a Randy Orton-style pose. He knows he is better then everyone else.
RW: I really thought this would have been an opening match but lets see if these two guys show they deserved to be this high up on the card.
The lights fade to darkness as the titan tron flashes..a countdown 5...4...3...2...1..Then at the last second "Hell Yeah" by Rev Theory blasts out the arena's PA Sytstem. Michael orton apears at the top of the stage as the lights and pyro start flashing and going off, then Orton walks down the aisle down to the ring apron, He goes to climb into the ring by climbing through the ropes, once in the ring he goes to the corner and waits his opponent.
JC: I like Tony Snyder, ever since he came into SFT he's been a hoot.
RW: A hoot?
JC: Yea
RW: Who says the word hoot? No one unless you live in the backwoods of Kentucky or the mountains of West Virginia.
RW: Well I say hoot.
The bell rings and we are off.
Snyder screams up to the heavens "The World is Mine!" he looks down and gives Orton a crooked smile. Snyder instantly lunges at Orton and nails him with a rake to the eyes and then a DDT! Snyder covers as the ref counts
1...............2.............kickout!
RW: That was a close one.
Snyder waits for Orton to get up, getting down on a stance appearing to get ready for a spear. As Orton gets up Snyder rushes but Orton gets out of the way as Snyder collides with the turnbuckle.
JC: Ouchie
Now Orton on the offensive with a angle slam, he picks up Snyder and hits a fall away Vertibreaker!
RW: I love that move!
JC: I know you do.
Orton with the cover
1....................2..................kickout!
RW: Wow I thought for sure after that devastating move that it was over.
Orton is up and waits patiently for Snyder as Snyder slowly gets up Orton is running and hits his Blackout!
JC: I think this could be it.
Orton covers Snyder as the ref is up and over and ready for the count as the slams his hand 1............2...............kickout!
RW: holy sh!t
JC: you took the words right out of my mouth.
Orton cant believe he kicked out of that, he's gonna go for his finisher the Psycho Driver as he climbs and jumps off Snyder comes to his senses and catches Orton as hes about to hit him and uses that same momentum to hit his own Party Crash move as Snyder covers Orton
1...............
2...............
................3!!!!
RW: That's it! A well fought match by both men but Tony Snyder is the victor.
Winner: TONY SNYDERvia Pinfall
Match Number Five KENNY ROGERS versus
CURRUPT (c) ( Hardcore Match - Hardcore Championship )
RW: Well the match with Tony Snyder and Michael
Orton was pretty decent.
JC: Most definitely decent.
RW: But up next is Kenny Rogers versus Currupt for
Currupt's Hardcore Title.
As the aggressive sounds of "Break Stuff" blare
through the arena, a man who appaears to be
country singer Kenny Rogers comes down the aisle.
He finishes off a bottle of Jack Daniels whiskey
and smashes it over his own head making his way to
the ring. As he aggressively removes his flannel
sleeveless shirt he tosses it to the ground and
starts shouting at his in ring opponent, Kenny
rolls into the ring and awaits his opponent.
Robyn Byrne: No Escape continues with this one
fall Hardcore Title match... First, the
challenger... Weighing in at 267lbs, hailing from
Houston, Texas, and representing the Dangerous
Alliance.....Kenny Rogers!!
RW: Well this guy has been running around for the
past month breaking whiskey bottles over people's
heads.
JC: Yes he has but I think tonight Currupt will
break some stuff over his head.
"Break Stuff" fades out as Kenny Rogers takes a
swig of Jack Daniels. Sin City by tavern slander
plays as the strike-tron fills up with rain. With
a few flashes from the light above the stage,
CURRUPT along with Marv come out onto the stage.
Both men look at each other. CURRUPT walks down
the rampway heading to the ring. He stops, look's
up then reaches for the top rope. CURRUPT pulls
his six foot seven frame up onto the apron.
Climbing over the top rope, Marv goes to remove
his lethal jacket. The pa system fades as CURRUPT
get's ready to pounce.
Robyn Byrne: His opponent... Weighing in at 290lbs
and hailing from Sin City... He is the Hardcore
Champion..... HE.. IS.. CURRUPT!!
RW: Currupt has been a force since coming into SFT
and has put himself on the map.
JC: Here we go!!!
Currupt throws the Hardcore Title to referee Dean
Barge and charges Kenny Rogers. Currupt tackles
Kenny Rogers to the mat and starts hitting him but
Kenny Rogers covers up as much as possible. Dean
Barge hands the belt to Robyn Byrne and calls for
the bell.
DING DING DING
RW: Currupt is wailing on Rogers.
Kenny Rogers rolls himself and Currupt over and he
begins hitting Currupt with shots but Currupt
covers up and then manages to get Rogers off of
him. Both men stand up and charge at each other.
Currupt goes for a clothesline but Rogers ducks
but instead of running into the ropes Currupt
stops, turns around, and takes Rogers down with a
hard clothesline shot.
JC: Currupt showed some smarts by stopping and
then clotheslining Rogers.
Currupt picks up Rogers from the mat and whips him
into the ropes. Rogers bounces off but Currupt is
right there waiting for him and hits a big boot to
Rogers' face that sends him flying through the top
and middle rope and out to the floor.
RW: Kenny Rogers is on the floor right infront of
us.
JC: And he's about to be joined by Currupt.
Currupt climbs out of the ring and out to the
floor. As Rogers is getting up Currupt grabs him
and slams him head first into the commentator's
table. Rogers staggers away and rests up against
the guardrail.
RW: Currupt is looking for some weapons under the
ring.
JC: I wonder what he'll find.
RW: Maybe he'll find Jimmy Hoffa under their.
Currupt pulls out a couple of trash cans with lids
and a few brooms. He grabs a broom and walks over
toward Rogers.
JC: You do realize we're in Japan, right?
RW: You trying to say that Jimmy Hoffa wouldn't
come over to Japan? You got something against
Japan, John?
JC: Hell no! Japan is awesome! These women know
how to please an American man. Waaaaaay better
than American women.
Currupt tries to break the broom over Rogers' back
but Rogers catches him with a shot to the gut.
Currupt doubles over and drops the broom on the
floor. Rogers picks it up and cracks it over
Currupt's back. Currupt is in pain as he walks
away from Rogers.
RW: These Japanese women love me long time.
JC: Randy, you are such a clown sometimes.
John Cartwright laughs at Randy's comment. Rogers
picks up a trash can and walks behind Currupt. As
Currupt turns to face him Rogers hits Currupt in
the head with the trash can. Currupt's body drops
to the floor but he gets right back up but only to
be hit again by Rogers with the same trash can.
Currupt staggers away and around the ring. Rogers
picks up another trash can and follows Currupt
around the ring.
RW: Kenny Rogers is stalking Currupt with a trash
can.
Currupt is leaning against the guardrail with fans
trying to cop a feel as they normally do with any
celebrity type person. Rogers raises the trash can
above his head but Currupt kicks Rogers in the
gut. Rogers backs off but then goes again to hit
Currupt with the trash can again but again Currupt
boots Rogers in the gut again. Currupt puts both
his feet into Rogers' chest and pushes him
backwards. Rogers stumbles away and gets turned
around. Currupt charges and hits a reverse STO
driving Rogers' face into floor.
JC: That might cause a concussion.
Currupt starts looking under the ring again for
more tools of pain. Currupt pulls out a fire
extinguisher and what looks to be a dirty mop. He
stands up and shoves the wet, dirty mop into
Rogers' face.
RW: Gross.
JC: God only knows what that mop was used to clean
up.
RW: Lord only knows and I don't wanna know. I'll
puke right here and now.
Currupt stands up and again looks under the ring.
JC: Here comes the wood!
Currupt pulls out a table. He opens the legs and
stands it up. Currupt grabs Rogers and sets him up
for what could be a powerbomb.
RW: I think Darkness is about to Fall upon Rogers.
JC: And fall hard through a table!
Currupt tries to lift Rogers up but he blocks.
Currupt tries again and again Rogers blocks.
Rogers shoves Currupt away from him. Rogers than
charges at Currupt and hits a spear.
JC: Rogers took Currupt down with a...
RW: Spear, spear, spear.
Rogers straddles Currupt and starts punching him
in the face a few times. Rogers stands up and
walks around the ring. He sees the fire
extinguisher and slides it into the ring. He
continues to walk over toward the commentator's
table area and yells at Robyn Byrne to get up. He
grabs her chair, folds it, and starts heading back
over to where he left Currupt laying. Rogers turns
the corner but Currupt is gone.
JC: Where'd the hell he go?
RW: He disappeared like a ghost.
Rogers drops the chair and on a hunch crawls under
the ring.
JC: I guess that's where he thinks Currupt went.
RW: It's a good chance that's exactly where
Currupt is at.
Some sounds of struggle and fight are heard coming
from under the ring. After a minute or so we see
the lower half of Rogers' body emerge from under
the ring. He slowly crawls out and as we see his
upper body emerge we also see the feet and legs of
Currupt.
RW: Kenny Rogers is dragging Currupt from under
the ring.
JC: Currupt is trying to squirm away but Rogers
has him in his clutches.
Rogers finishes dragging Currupt out and brings
him to his feet. Rogers grabs Currupt and slams
his head on the ring apron before sliding Currupt
into the ring. Rogers follows insuit. He brings
Currupt to his feet, picks him up onto his
shoulder, walks over to a corner and drops Currupt
with a snake eyes on the top turnbuckle. Currupt
staggers out of the corner. Rogers is waiting and
lifts Currupt across his shoulders. Rogers walks
over toward the ropes and looks down on the table
set up outside. The crowd erupts at the
possibility of Currupt going through it.
RW: I think Kenny Rogers wants to toss Currupt
over the top rope and through the table.
JC: If he does I say we got ourselves a brand new
Hardcore Champion.
Kenny Rogers goes for what looks like a death
valley driver but Currupt grabs the top rope to
block the move.
RW: Currupt is trying his damnedest to not go flying over that top rope!
Currupt puts a couple of elbow shots to the face of Kenny Rogers and Rogers releases Currupt. Currupt lands on his feet, spins Kenny Rogers around, kicks him in the gut, and sets up for a Darkness Falls.
JC: Currupt is gonna go for the Darkness Falls and if he hits it he will retain the title!
Currupt lifts Kenny Rogers up but Kenny Rogers floats over Currupt's head and lands on his feet behind him. Kenny Rogers then musters all of his power and lifts Currupt on his shoulders in a reverse death valley driver position. Kenny Rogers walks a little closer to the ropes and he sends Currupt flying over the top rope but Currupt lands on the apron.
RW: Currupt is lucky he landed on the apron of the ring otherwise his ass was going to be wiped out.
Currupt bends over and pokes his head through the top and middle ropes. He rams his shoulder into Kenny Rogers' stomach a couple of times and this causes Rogers to stagger backwards. Currupt enters the ring and when Rogers turns back around to face Currupt he is grabbed by his throat and chokeslammed in the middle of the ring by Currupt. Currupt immediately heads out of the ring, folds up the table, and slides it in the ring. Currupt then goes under the ring and pulls out yet another table.
JC: I think it's a big mistake for Currupt to not try and win this matchh but he has some bad ideas on his corrupted mind.
Currupt slides the table in the ring and re-enters the ring. He sets up the first table and than the second. He sets them up side by side.
RW: Kenny Rogers is beginning to move around.
Kenny Rogers uses the ropes to slowly try to get to his feet but he is on one knee by the time Currupt comes over and brings him to his feet. Currupt whips Kenny Rogers across the ring and Rogers slams into some turnbuckles. Currupt charges in and tries for a splash but Rogers moves out of the way. Currupt hits his head on the ring post and staggers backwards and onto the tables he setup side by side. Kenny Rogers sees this and decides to exit the ring and onto the apron. From there Rogers slowly climbs up to the top rope. He slowly stands up and looks to the crowd and down at Currupt.
JC: HERE...
Kenny Rogers leaps off the top rope.
JC: ...COME...
Kenny Rogers flies through the air.
JC: ...AN AVALANCHE!!!!!!
With only a split second to move out of the way Currupt rolls off the table just before Rogers crashes and burns through both tables. John looks at Randy. Randy looks at John.
JC & RW: HOLY SHIT!!!!!
RW: Can we see that amazing crash and burn again?
The instant reply shows Rogers fly through the air in slow motion. As he inches closer to Currupt on the tables Currupt rolls out of the way. Kenny Rogers facial expression goes from knowing he's about to finish off Currupt to an expression that says "this is going to suck....and hurt a lot." Rogers crashes through the tables and they shatter into a million pieces.
JC: Kenny Rogers gambled and went bust.
Currupt stands up and looks over to see Kenny Rogers laying motionless amongst the broken pieces of wood. Currupt walks over and slowly drags the lifeless body of Kenny Rogers out of the pile of wood. Currupt falls down and drapes his body on top of Kenny Rogers and referee Dean Barge drops to the mat to make the count.
RW: 1........
RW: 2........
RW: And 3! And Currupt will retain the Hardcore Title.
JC: Well once Rogers soared and than crashed it was academic after that.
"Tavern Slander" begins to play. Referee Dean Barge is handed the Hardcore Title from Robyn Byrne as she announces the winner.
Robyn Byrne: Your winner and STILLLL SFT Hardcore Champion...... The Man of SIN...he is CURRUPT!
Currupt raises the title in the air as he slowly climbs to his feet.
RW: Well to say the very least it was a hard fought battle by both men.
JC: One helluva a fight!
Winner: CURRUPTvia Pinfall
Match Number Six LIONEL KINGSTON versus
TWILIGHT versus
ERIK DEAN versus
EMERSON versus
SEAN LANE versus
JACKSON STEED (c) ( Elimination Chamber Match - National Championship )
RW: Next we have the Elimination Chamber match for the National title currently held by Jackson Steed.
JC: The chamber is being lowered Randy and we know Jackson who defeated Dawn Lenore for the title will be doing his all to hold onto the belt.
RW: Well as it goes four men will enter pods, every five minutes someone will enter at random and it is randomly they enter the pods. So we don't know who will be starting the match.
JC: Well we hare about to find out who will be entering the first pod now.
Sean Lanes music plays and the fans look on but he doesn't appear the music keeps playing but he still doesn't show.
RW: What is going on here why isn't Lane appearing?
JC: I don't know looks like they are trying it again.
The music fades and a few seconds later it hits again but still no sign of Lane.
JC: I have just been informed that we need to move on looks like Sean Lane isn't coming out.
RW: What a let down John a real let down.
Basketcase by Greenday hits as he slowly walks to the ring and as he enters the ring then enters a pod before sitting down in the pod and looking right into the ring.
JC: Twilight will not start the match either Randy.
RW: Let us hope he doesn't turn into a warewolf or a vampire in there.
JC: Your idea of making names match movies is starting to bore me now.
The Jumanji theme hits the PA as Lion walks out, bearing his chest and staring proudly into the horizon. As he walks down to the ring a loud Lion's roar is heard. His walk is staggered and timid, as if stalking prey. He then climbs onto the apron just by stepping onto it, he then steps over the ropes and into the ring. From there, he walks right over to Twilights pod and faces him before the ref diverts him to his pod and he is locked in.
RW: Looks like the biggest guy in the match will not be involved to begin with.
JC: This could go well for him depends how long he has to wait until he is released from the pod.
RW: Big guys like that are probably a little claustrophobic.
The intro to "Beast Mode" by B.O.B. starts up as a strobe light that flashes multi-colors starts going off through the arena.
I really don't know how long I've been doing this shit
I guess 2011's the first year you gave a shit
I was the underdog so please excuse me a bit
I need some space so someone please make me some room in this bitch

Pyros go off as Jackson Steed steps from behind the curtains bent over with his hands out like an airplane. He has on his trademark designed tights and boots. He is also wearing his trademark sunglasses down to the ring tonight as he steps out for us to see, he whirls around at the top of the stage like a plane. He then stands up and gives the crowd a smile as he starts to walk down to the ring as the video goes into slow motion on the jumbotron.
Okay then, know what my name is
excuse my language but I'm fed up with the same shit
they say they love me but its really cause I'm famous see

I guess you could call me David Ruffin I'm circled in the Temptations
or maybe I'm angry, maybe I just need a little more patience
or maybe I'm crazy, maybe I just get a little to anxious
some-times-I-rhyme-like-I'm-inside-Einsteins-mind
look at the time fly by, plenty of times I've died
Jackson Steed walks down to the ring giving fans high fives as they cheer him on his way to the ring. Jackson keeps the smile on his face as he walks up the ring steps and wipes his feet off on the apron. He raises a hand up to the crowd as they give him a loud pop. He then climbs between the second and top rope into the ring and runs across the ring to the turnbuckle. He jumps to the top and raises his hands as he looks through the crowd he takes his sunglasses off and throws them to one lucky female. Jackson steps down from the turnbuckle and begins warming up for the match.
He continues on down the aisle to a mixture of cheers mainly from the ladies and boos from the men. He slides in to the ring and begins taking his jacket and sunglasses off. He then begins pointing and laughing at Lionel Kingston before being directed to the last available pod.
JC: It looks like the current National champion is not beginning the match he must be focused and more hyped to win this match after losing the Tag titles earlier tonight.
RW: He doesn't need Nic Desiel to help him he will defend with honour and pride tonight, and with Jackson in a pod he will be ready and fresh when he enters.
The arena is quiet as the fans wait for something to happen, then a loud bang goes off as the lights in the arena dim down to low, them the sound of "Doomsday" by Atreyu hits the PA and the crowd goes insanely wild as Pyro from Colors red to Yellow shoot off from the stage. Erik Dean emerges from the backstage area and enters the stage; Dean stops and looks around at the crowd a bit and can see flashes coming from cameras going off; almost a bit blinding. Dean then walks down the ramp way slowly taking his time and enters the ring area and climbs into the ring.
JC: Erik Dean is now in and once Emerson appears the match will beginning.
RW: But he doesn't do entrances John, he just appears and look he has just climbed down Sean Lane's empty pod and is on the turnbuckle.
The ref on the outside locks the chambers as Emerson goes flying off the ropes with a flying clothesline sending down Erik Dean. The bell rings as Emerson rolls to his feet Dean gets up and charges at Emerson who ducks a clothesline then turns round Dean and hits a DDT.
JC: Emerson each week pulls out moves we don't know he can do.
RW: This guy is an Enigma and just does the unknown or maybe he doesn't even know what he is doing.

Emerson reverses it and hits a backbody drop. Dean crashes holding his back but gets up only for Emerson to clothesline him down.
RW: I though Dean was going to take it to Emerson there.
JC: What is it you don't like about Merson Randy?
RW: Because he fucked a teenager and I didn't some call it jealousy I call it annoyance that he has to tell us.
With Dean down Emerson takes a moment to climb the turnbuckle and shout abuse at Sean Lane the two trade some blows before Erik Dean comes from behind with a dropkick that sends Emersons face crashing against the glass.

JC: A few minutes and we will have another competitor in the ring.
Both get to their feet without much fuss as they reach Emerson goes for a huge right its ducked by Dean who locks in a waist lock then goes for a belly to back suplex but Emerson blocks it and connects with an elbow to the face.

JC: All he has to do is pin him and Lionel is eliminated and if you didn't catch it both Erik Dean and Jackson Steed have been eliminated by Lionel Kingston. But where did Sean Lane come from?
RW: Well John Lionel just went to town with everyone when he stepped in the ring, but I don't know where Sean Lane came from either.
With the fans looking on cheering Twilight gets up but gets a kick in the gut and is hit with the Laneplexs three snap suplexs in a row. As Lane stands up once more Emerson is up and he receives the Final Solution for his trouble. Sean Lane now takes a deep breath and goes to the ground and lays on the mat, he pulls Twilights arm over him and the referee drops to the mat.
REF: 1...2...3 Sean Lane is Eliminated.
JC: Why the hell will he do that?
RW: I have no idea John we will hopefully find out next week on titans but that leaves Twilight, Emerson and Lionel Kingston.
JC: And one of them will be the new National Champion.
All three men are down they don't realise Lane has left and the chamber is locked with only Twilight, Emerson and Lionel Kingston left, all three men stir at the same time and begin using the ropes to get up. The fans are chanting SFT as they reach their feet Twilight and Emerson look at one another and charge Lionel, Twilight with a drop kick to the knee and Emerson runs off the ropes and hits a bull dog on Lionel bringing him down. Now both Twilight and Emerson begin stomping on Lionel to keep him down.

Emerson sees Lionel Kingston still down and bleeding from his head. Emerson covers Lionel Kingston and the ref drops to make his count.
RW: 1.....
RW: 2.....
RW: And NOOOOOOO!!!! Lionel kicked out!!
JC: He really is super human! First he battles Zues and now after being thrown head first through the glass of one of the pods he kicks out!
RW: Even lightning may not stop him now.
Emerson is up and he can't believe Lionel kicked out. He looks at the referee with a surprised look on his face.
JC: Don't bother looking at the ref, get back on Lionel!
Emerson, still in shock, brings Lionel to his feet. Emerson grabs Lionel by his head and tries to ram his face into the chains of the Elimination Chamber but Lionel puts out his hands to block.
RW: Lionel is in true beast mode!
Emerson tries once again to ram Lionel's face into the chains but Lionel's head will not budge even an inch. Lionel then brings his hand and arm back to swat away Emerson but Emerson goes flying over the top rope and back into the ring. Lionel steps over the top rope and goes after Emerson. Lionel whips Emerson across the ring. Emerson bounces off the ropes and when he comes running back toward Lionel, Lionel ducks his head and hits one devasting somoan drop on Emerson.

JC: Lionel's got a cover!
The ref drops to make the count.
RW: 1.....
RW: 2.....
RW: And thr....NOOOOOOOO!!!! Some how, some way, Emerson kicked out at the last possible second!!
JC: Emerson may not look like a Lion but he's got the heart of one.
Lionel Kingston doesn't bother looking at the referee and stands up. He Lionel cuts his throat with his thumb.
RW: I think Lionel's saying that this match is about to be over.
JC: Either than or he cut himself the last time he shaved. But I'm pretty sure it's what you said.
Lionel Kingston begins running across the ring and hits the ropes, bounces off, and continues running across the ring.
RW: Lionel Kingston has got some momentum going.
JC: He's going to try for one helluva Severed Justice and at the speed he's going if he hits it he might knock Emerson all the way to next weeks Titans episode.
Emerson begins to get up but slowly. Lionel is still running back and forth across the ring gaining more and more speed and momentum. Emerson finally gets to a standing position. He turns around and sees Lionel Kingston coming at him like a bad out of hell. Just before Lionel destroys him Emerson drops to the mat to avoid the Severed Justice.
RW: That's probably the only thing he could do at this point.
JC: I would've done the same thing.
RW: Yeah but you would've also curled up in a little ball too.
JC: Mmmmmaaaaaayyyyybbbbbbeeee.
RW: Definitely.
Lionel sees this and uses his speed and momentum to climb the ropes in a corner and before you can say "lick my balls" Lionel ends up on top of one of the pods. Lionel Kingston doesn't bother to look back and moonsaults off the pod.
JC: The King's Fall!!! The King's Fall!!!
As Lionel is back flipping through the air Emerson stands up and moves out of Lion's landing area. Lionel Kingston crashes to the mat like a 20ton anvil.
RW: HUGE MISTAKE BY LIONEL KINGSTON!!!!
JC: That's why big goofy guys should keep their feet on the ground!
Emerson wastes no time and covers Lionel Kingston once he rolls onto his back. The referee drops to make the count.
RW: 1....
RW: 2....
RW: 3!!
Lionel Kingston kicks out but it's just a mili-second too late.
RW: It's Over! It's Over!!
Robyn Byrne: Your winner and the NNNNEEEEEWWWWW SFT National Champion......EEEEEMMMMMERRRRSSSOOONNNN!!!!
JC: I can't believe my own eyes! Emerson...Emerson has finally won a title here in SFT!!
RW: I can't believe it either!! But in all actuality if Lion hadn't have gone up to the top of the pod and come crashing down Emerson would not be the winner.
The Elimination Chamber begins to rise up.
JC: Like I said, big men should never go up to the high risk district. Keep your feet planted on the ground at all times.
Emerson is still lying on the mat in disbelief as well. The referee is handed the National Title and turns to walk over to Emerson but Lionel Kingston is up and grabs the National Title from the referee.
RW: Oh boy, that can't be good.
Emerson is up and sees that Lionel Kingston has possession of the National Title. Lionel Kingston hobbles over toward Emerson and holding his ribs at the same time. Emerson is on his guard but also hurting. Lionel Kingston stops as he comes close to Emerson.
JC: What's going to happen here?!
Lionel Kingston looks at the belt and than hands it to Emerson and the crowd pops for the show of sportsmanship. Lionel than grabs Emerson's other hand and raises it in the air.
RW: Well it's nice to see some sportsmanship now and again here in SFT.
But out of nowhere Lionel Kingston snatches Emerson up onto his shoulders and lays Emerson out with a Succumb To Darkness.
JC: I am so glad we are in SFT. Fuck sportsmanship!
RW: In SFT you can either live the dream or live a nightmare.
JC: Tonight Emerson lives both!
RW: Indeed he does John, indeed he does.
The Jumanji theme begins to play as Lionel Kingston slowly exits the ring leaving Emerson laid out in the center with the National Title lying next to him.

JOHNNY FIERCE (c) ( Elimination Chamber Match - World Heavyweight Championship )
Robyn Byrne: The following contest is our MAIN EVENT and it is an ELIMINATION CHAMBER MATCH for the WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP!
"Dragonfly" by Shaman's Harvest plays as SwitchBlade steps through the curtain to a chorus of cheers and boos. Once at the top of the ramp, he removes his sunglasses and tosses them to the side. He walks past the fans ignoring their presence. SwitchBlade enters the massive chain Chamber and he is secured in the first of the four containment pods.
~PERFECTION HAS ARRIVED~
Appears on the tron and then the lights in the arena blackout, a green spotlight begins searching throughout the arena, the fans begin to boo. The spotlight goes faster and faster, the guitar rift can be heard, the spotlight gets even faster then the opening of "Butterflies and Hurricanes" By Muse begins to blare out and the spotlight stops on the entrance way. The Lights stay out as the fans booing become louder.
Change everything you are
and everything you were
your number has been called
Fights and battles have begun
revenge will surely come
your hard times are ahea
Gary Mac then walks out from the back with his black wrestling tights on with green lightning down each side. With the words The Real Deal inscribed onto the back of it. The fans boo as Mac wears a black T-Shirt with the words Too Fucking Good inscribed onto the front of it. Gary Mac smirks towards the fans and then begins to head towards the ring, walking past the fans and as he does he he spits on one while wiping his forehead and throwing the sweat onto the fans.
Best
you've got to be the best
you've got to change the world
and use this chance to be heard
your time is now
Mac reaches the ring and he enters the Elimination Chamber second. Gary poses to the crowd, then removes his t-shirt. He throws the t-shirt at the referee, since he can't throw it out of the Chamber. The referee directs Gary Mac to his containment pod and closes him inside.
A loud pop is heard and the lights in the arena go completely out leaving everybody in total darkness. The StrikeTron lights up with two quarters falling on a table. Once the quarters stop rolling around the beginning of the song "No Love" by Eminem featuring Lil Wayne begins to play. First just the slow beat begins to play with some words spoken every so often.
"Love... Love..."
Music continues.
"Love... Love... Love..."
Music continues.
"Don't Hurt Me... Don't Hurt Me...
No More... No More..."
Drum snares play for a quick moment...
"Love... Love... Love..."
...and then Lil Wayne begins.
"Throw dirt on me and grow a wildflower
But it's "fuck the world", get a child out her
Yeah, my life a bitch, but you know nothing about her
Been to hell and back, I can show you vouchers
I'm rolling Sweets, I'm smoking sour
Married to the game but she broke her vows
That's why my bars are full of broken bottles
And my night stands are full of open Bibles
The sound of a tape rewinding fast is heard and just then red and gold pyro shoots off from the top of the ramp staging. "The Icon" "The Legend" Big T makes his way through the curtain from backstage. Multiple colored lights flash throughout the arena. And the song continues with Lil Wayne as Big T slowly walks down the ramp ignoring the fans like they do not exist.
"I think about more than I forget
But I don't go around fire expecting not to sweat
And these niggas know I lay them down, make their bed
Bitches try to kick me while I'm down: I'll break your leg
Money outweighing problems on a triple beam
I'm sticking to the script, you niggas skipping scenes
Be good or be good at it
Fucking right I've got my gun, semi-Cartermatic
Yeah, put a dick in their mouth, so I guess it's "fuck what they say"
I'm high as a bitch: up, up and away"
Big T walks up the cold steel stairs and enters the Chamber. He grins as he takes his place in his pod.
JC: This is certainly bad news for our reigning World Heavyweight Champion. Apparently he's going to be one of the two that starts this Elimination Chamber. How can he survive five other men with the Championship on the line?
RW: It sure will not be easy, but Johnny Fierce excels at inflicting pain. This type of match is right up the brawler's alley.
"Working Man" by Rush hits next, and Brice McQueen is the third man out. He jogs down to ringside and enters the Chamber, where he eagerly gets into the third pod.
The arena dims as heavy guitar riffs and drums begin pounding away, Shinedown's "Sound Of Madness" heralding the reigning SFT Champion.
"Yeah, I get it, you're an outcast
Always under attack, always coming in last
Bringing up the past, no one owes you anything
I think you need a shotgun blast, a kick in the ass
So paranoid, WATCH YOUR BACK!!!!"
Pyro blasts on either side of of the entrance ramp explode in sequence leading towards the middle of the entrance ramp in rapid succession. The explosions meet in the middle in an enormous bang causing lots of smoke. Out of the smoke leaps out Johnny Fierce, World Title strapped around his waist. The crowd pops for him big time as he raises his hands in the air with enthusiasm. Johnny stops and reaches back through the curtain, producing a folded table. Fierce walks down the ramp way, carrying the table with him. He weaves from one side of the ramp to the other trying, slapping hands with fans. Johnny slides the table onto the chain link floor inside the Elimination Chamber. The referee questions Johnny Fierce about what he's doing with the table, but decides he can't really stop him. Fiece leaps into the Chamber and enters the ring, staring a hole through Redd. He quickly runs up to the corner turnbuckle and unstraps his World title. He raises with his left hand as the crowd cheers in response. He settles down in the ring, hands off his title to the ref and gets ready.
RW: Here is the SFT Champion, and he's going to have a lot of work to do to stay that way.
JC: Yeah, but what's the deal with that table?!
The music fades out as referee Sean Whitcomb signals for the bell. The bell tolls, and the match begins.
JC: Here we go again!
RW: What are we going to see in this second Elimination Chamber match of the night?!
Brice charges Johnny Fierce and gets a boot to the gut for his effort. Fierce throws a haymaker, but Brice ducks. Johnny turns around and Brice hits a dropkick.
Brice pulls Fierce to his feet and sets him in position for a DDT. Johnny counters into a Northern lights suplex. Johnny Fierce lifts Redd up over his shoulder as though for a bodyslam or powerslam. Fierce runs Brice's back into the top turnbuckle, then dumps him over the top rope to the steel floor.
RW: Oklahoma Stampede from Hell!
JC: He just tossed Redd over the top rope and onto the cold, hard steel!
Johnny Fierce grabs the table he brought into the Chamber and leans it against the Chamber wall. Johnny smiles and props Redd up against the table.
JC: Good God! What's he thinking?!
RW: We've seen the Death By Table once or twice right out here in front of the announce table. Could he possibly be going for it in the Elimination Chamber?!
Johnny Fierce climbs into the ring and runs to the ropes opposite Brice. He sprints at full speed back towards Brice and leaps through the ropes with a suicide dive. Johnny crashes through Brice and through the table. Fierce stands up slowly and growls as he discovers cuts on his knees and on his right forearm.
Johnny Fierce: SHIT!

A spotlight dances around the four containment pods as the next random entrant is selected. The light comes to a stop on Big T's pod, and the door swings open. T charges out of his pod and grabs Fierce by the hair. Big T pulls Johnny into an inside cradle on the steel.
1...

KICK OUT!
RW: The champ almost got caught!
JC: That would have guaranteed us a new World Heavyweight Champion!
Johnny Fierce stands up and Big T nails him with a hard right hand. Fierce retaliates with a knife edge chop followed by a right of his own. Big T clotheslines Johnny over the top rope and into the ring. T very cautiously climbs to the top rope. Johnny Fierce hops to his feet and runs to the corner. Fierce jumps to the second rope and delivers a high knee to Big T on the top. T's head snaps back and hits the containment pod behind him. In the pod, Gary Mac cringes and then laughs at Big T.
JC: It seems Gary Mac enjoyed that one.
RW: That was pretty awesome!
Johnny Fierce now joins Big T on the top rope. Fierce slams T's head into the pod again before setting up for a superplex. Johnny hesitates, knowing that he will hurt himself as well as his opponent once again. Reluctantly, Fierce falls back and delivers a superplex.
RW: Oh good God!
JC: Johnny Fierce throws caution to the wind for a second time in this match.
Fierce gets up slowly and grabs Big T by the hair. T suddenly springs to life with a spinebuster, followed into a figure four.
JC: There's the Back Down!
RW: Hang on, champ!
Johnny fights through the pain. He has been in the hold for nearly a full minute before his body goes limp. Whitcomb checks Fierce's shoulders and begins a count.
1...

Johnny rolls his shoulders off the mat.
RW: Good Lord, this figure four is punishing the champion.
JC: This is it, the title is gone. Even if he somehow escapes this hold, there is no way he'll be able to win with the damage it has done.
Johnny Fierce digs down deep and turns himself- and Big T- onto his stomach, reversing the pressure onto Big T. Brice McQueen climbs into the ring and delives an elbow drop across Big T's back, breaking the hold.
JC: What's Brice thinking?
RW: Beats me. He's a Scientologist. Maybe Xenu beamed up his brain.
McQueen puts Big T into a cobra clutch and pulls him to his feet. Brice delives a cobra clutch suplex, then stands and waves to the crowd. Johnny throws a punch at Brice, but McQueen ducks and catches Fierce in a sleeper. The Scientologist hits a sleeper suplex on the champion, then waves to the crowd again.

The buzzer sounds a second time as the light begins to bounce from pod to pod again, back and forth between Gary Mac and SwitchBlade. The light stops on Mac's pod, and Gary rushes into the ring with a confident grin.
RW: Gary Mac is in, so SwitchBlade will be the last man into the ring!
JC: We started a man down with Redd backing out, but still the war rages on. No eliminations yet, ten minutes in.
Gary Mac nails Johnny Fierce with The Real Deal crescent kick. Mac immediately covers the champ.

KICK OUT!
Gary's jaw drops in disbelief, but he turns and pins Big T instead.
1...
2...
KICK OUT!
Now Gary pounds the mat in frustration. He looks at Sean Whitcomb in astonishment and questions the count.
JC: Gary Mac thought he was coming in here to mop up the broken bodies of the three men in the ring, but apparently these guys have more fight in them than he thought.
RW: They sure do! Maybe it was just on instinct, but T and Fierce both kicked out of pin attempts by The Real Deal!
Gary Mac stands and grabs hold of Brice McQueen. Mac sets McQueen up for a powerbomb. Gary grins again and points over the top rope.
RW: Now what is he thinking about?
JC: There are some evil intentions in that mind right now, Randy. He's got something nasty going on up there.
Gary Mac hoists Brice McQueen up overhead in position for the Total Destruction. Gary walks the hold forward, then tosses Brice over the top rope.
JC: My GOD! Total Destruction to the outside! Face first into the steel floor goes McQueen!
RW: That's it! He's done! Call a medic! Or a mortician!
Big T stands up and Gary Mac kicks him in the gut. Mac delivers a Near Destruction, rolling the sit down powerbomb into a Boston crab.
Big T claws at the mat and cries out in pain. He begins the long, slow, agonizing crawl to the ropes. After about twenty seconds, T grabs hold of the bottom ropes with his right hand. Gary Mac shakes his head, refusing to break the hold. Referee Sean Whitcomb is powerless to stop him. T grabs the bottom ropes with both hands and pulls himself completely out of the ring.
RW: Good Lord, Big T's crawled all the way out to the steel- out of the ring- and still Gary Mac refuses to break!
JC: Back against the ropes, Mac is torturing T here!
Big T extends his arms full out and grabs the chains that form the wall of the Elimination Chamber. He pulls himself forward again and now Gary Mac is forced to break the hold as T's entire body slips out of the ring.
JC: Big T finally escapes, but how much damage has been done?
Gary Mac starts to step through the ropes. Big T stands and kicks him in the chest. T hooks Mac's head and delivers a Change The Game onto the steel floor of the Chamber. Almost a minute goes by with all four men down and out. Johnny Fierce finally makes it to his feet, and smiles as he sees a possible opening himself.

SwitchBlade enters the fray as the last man into the Elimination Chamber. Switch nails Fierce with a running STO on the steel floor, then climbs into the ring. SwitchBlade gestures around his waist, indicating that he will win the SFT Championship again.
Brice McQueen pulls himself to his feet out on the steel, using the ropes to get himself up. SwitchBlade climbs to the top rope and dives off with a moonsault. Switch lands on McQueen and right into a pin.
RW: VINTAGE SwitchBlade!

RW: That's it for McQueen!
JC: Say hi to Xenu for us, Brice! You're gone!
As the door opens to let Brice McQueen out, "Faster" by Within Temptation hits the PA and the Dangerous Alliance storms down to the ring. The chamber door is not yet completely closed when Tony Snyder cleared the stairs in one jump and grabbed the cage door.
Big T sees this and goes over to help pull the chamber door closed, Kave, Titan and Kenny jump up on the stairs and pull the door open, allowing Tony Snyder to enter. Tony spears Big T down and begins kicking and stomping him.
JC: Hey, what the Hell?!
RW: Get him out of there!
Tony grabs a chair handed to him by Kave Blackwell and puts it down on the mat. Tony picks Big T up and locks him in the full nelson and slams him down with the B-Flat (Skull Crushing Finale) on the chair. Tony Snyder stands up and makes a belt motion around his waist. He shouts out...
Tony Snyder: The title is gonna be mine!
Tony Snyder then gives the finger and exits the chamber and the match continues on.
RW; Oh, good grief! Do these Dangerous Alliance clowns really think anyone is going to take them seriously?
JC: Tony Snyder as SFT World Champion? This guy's nuttier than Brice McQueen.
Meanwhile, Gary Mac has pulled Johnny Fierce to his feet on the steel floor on the other side of the ring. Mac attempts to whip Fierce into the chains. Johnny jumps up and catches himself on the wall. He jumps off onto Gary with a twisting cross body, causing them both to spill over the top rope into the ring.
SwitchBlade pulls Big T to his feet and lifts him up for a powerbomb. Johnny Fierce tries to bring Gary Mac to his feet, but Gary hits Johnny with a low blow. Mac hoists Fierce up and hits a Total Destruction. At the same time, SwitchBlade drops Big T with a Deep Cut. Gary pins Johnny just as Switch is pinning T.
Sean Whitcomb slaps the mat with both hands, beginning counts on both guys.

JC: Oh my God! Simultaneous eliminations!
RW: Big T and Fierce are eliminated! We are guaranteed a new World Heavyweight Champion, and it's down to Gary Mac and SwitchBlade!
Gary Mac is to his feet first, and he tosses SwitchBlade over the top rope. He smirks as he sees victory close at hand. Mac follows Switch out to the steel floor and grabs him by the hair. Gary "helps" SwitchBlade to his feet, then tosses him into the wall of the nearest isolation pod. The plexiglass explodes into pieces as SwitchBlade's head and shoulder slam through it.
RW: Holy crap!
JC: That was NUTS!
Gary Mac climbs into the pod with SwitchBlade and places a foot on his chest in an arrogant pin. Mac raises his fist as Whitcomb counts.

KICK OUT!
JC: Oh my GOD! SwitchBlade kicks out! I can't believe it!
RW: I can, John! This guy SwitchBlade has an iron will to win!
Gary Mac screams in fury, but falls to his knees and goes into a lateral press, hooking the far leg.
RW: Can a full cover get the job done?
JC: I wouldn't be surprised either way at this point.

KICK OUT!
JC: SwitchBlade kicks out AGAIN.
RW: You just cannot break this guy. He doesn't quit even when he should.
Gary Mac pulls SwitchBlade to his feet. SwitchBlade pulls the front of Mac's tights, causing him to crash face first into the inside of the pod wall. SwitchBlade drags Gary out of the pod through the shattered wall. He pounds Mac into the chain wall. SwitchBlade slams Gary into the wall a second time.., and a third... then a fourth... and a fifth.
RW: Good God in Heaven, this is brutal!
JC: These guys are willing to tear each other apart in order to walk out of that Elimination Chamber as World Heavyweight Champion!
SwitchBlade sets Gary Mac up for the Deep Cut. Switch lifts Gary onto his shoulders, trying to finish him off. Mac rakes SwitchBlade's eyes and lands on his feet in front of him. Gary kicks SwitchBlade in the groin, and sets up for a powerbomb of his own.
JC: Lord, back and forth they go!
RW: Gary Mac's looking to end it!
Gary Mac hoists SwitchBlade to his shoulders and hits a sit down powerbomb. Mac hooks his arms around SwitchBlade's legs and turns him over into a Boston crab.
RW: Near Destruction on the steel! There's no way SwitchBlade can withstand this!
JC: It's all over! There is truly No Escape for SwitchBlade now! No way out of this Boston crab!
Thirty seconds pass as SwitchBlade grits his teeth and roars in pain.
JC: SwitchBlade's back is being destroyed here. He's got to tap!
RW: I think SwitchBlade is just realizing that himself! You can see that he is hating it.
Finally, after forty-five seconds in the Boston crab with no hope of escape in sight, SwitchBlade raises his hand and begins to tap slowly on the steel floor.
RW: There it is! Gary Mac has done it! Gary Mac is SFT World Heavyweight Champion!
JC: What a night! Gary Mac wins his first championship in Strike Towers, and it is the WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP! Un-BELIEVABLE!
"Butterflies and Hurricanes" by Muse begins to play again and confetti falls from the rafters. The World Heavyweight Championship belt is passed to Sean Whitcomb who hands it over to Gary Mac. Mac raises the belt high in triumph and amazement. He falls to his knees and cradles the belt in his arms, pressing it against his heart.
Winner: GARY MACvia Eliminations
CLOSING
Just then "I Run This" hits over the PA system. Gary Mac's face goes from happy to pissed off in 1 point 5 seconds flat. The boss himself, not Bruce Springsteen either, comes out from behind the curtain with a mic in hand. As he stands at the top of the ramp he claps for Gary Mac before his music cuts.
Owner Anthony Jesus: Well congratulations Gary! You have hit the big time!! You are the SFT World Heavyweight Champion!!! Congratulations!! That's all I wanted to say, enjoy your celebration.
Jesus points up and confetti begins falling from the ceiling of the Osaka Dome. Gary Mac, the fans, and the slowly recovering Switchblade all get covered in mutli-colored pieces of paper. Jesus begins to turn around and walk backstage but freezes.
Owner Anthony Jesus: Wait. Wait. Wait. Hold on a second. My apologizes Gary, there is another reason why I came out here other than to congratulate you. I'm out here to announce the main event for our next pay per view spectacular on May 31st. And what do you know, it involves you Gary. As our newly crowned World Champion you have to defend your title. But unlike tonight you won't have multiple opponents. No Gary, you'll have one man trying to pry that title from your grasp.
Gary Mac: Who got tough guy?! Huh?! Come on! How about you big mouth?!
Owner Jesus chuckles.
Owner Anthony Jesus: Gary, I'm the boss. I don't wrestle in matches. I just book them. You'll never ever get me in that ring, not ever.
Gary Mac spells out 'p-u-s-s-y' with his finger in the air.
Owner Anthony Jesus: That's right Gary, I am what I eat.
Gary Mac: No Jesus, if you were what you eat you'd be a dickhead!!!
Owner Anthony Jesus: That's right Gary, keep poking at the tiger. You know what Gary I was going to be nice to you and book you against the new guy we just signed named Alan Chambers but instead, since you've done made it a point to call me a pussy and a dickhead... In May you'll face...
Jesus holds his finger to his chin like he is thinking about Gary's future opponent.
Owner Anthony Jesus: Hmmmmm....HIM!
Jesus points to Switchblade who is now on his feet but with help of the referee and the ring ropes. The crowd erupts at the thought of SFT's best going at it again and this time for the World Title.
Owner Anthony Jesus: And gentlemen, that World Heavyweight Title match will push you both to your thresholds. That match will prove once and for all who the better man is.
Jesus pauses for a quick moment.
Owner Anthony Jesus: Because that match will truly show who indeed... is... thee... IRON MAN!!!
Jesus laughs maniacally and heads backstage making sure to laugh very loudly into the microphone.
RW: If I am taking this correctly next month's ppv main event will be Switchblade challenging Gary Mac for the World Heavyweight Title in an Iron Man Match.
JC: That's got instant classic written all over it!
RW: What a great way to end a great night of action and surprises! For John Cartwright, I'm Randy White...goodnight everybody!
No Escape fades off with Gary Mac and Switchblade staring each other down in the ring as they now know what their futures hold for them.
