"The following contest is scheduled for NO RULES WHATSOEVER!!!"

Already, Skylar X is in the ring pounding the shit out of Steve Weigel. Skylar whips him off the ropes and Lou Thez's, throwing hammer-like fists into his jaw. Skylar lets up, but only to slump in the corner, mockingly. Weigel foolishly charges, and foolishly gets a foot to the groin. Skylar bolts up and Clotheslines him down. Weigel gets back up, but gets a kick and an Impaler DDT into the mat. The crowd roars for violence and weapons, and god damn, Skylar X is going to deliver. He rolls to the outside for some weapons.

Joey: Earlier this week, Skylar X announced this was his last preformance.

Trunks: Yeah, well it's more than some people offer.

Steve Weigel gets kicked in the face by the ref. Thanks for leaving a note. On the outside, Skylar starts hurling weapons into the ring. A step ladder, a few chairs, a trash can, a wheelbarrow, a Tickle Me Elmo... wait what? Skylar grabs the Elmo as he enters the ring. Weigel turns around and... Skylar presses the button. "Hehe, that tickles!" Weigel giggles uncontrollably, while Skylar sets up the step ladder behind him. Steve huggles the Elmo doll, and behind him Skylar just set up four chairs all around each other. Skylar tucks his head under Weigel and lifts him onto his shoulders. He runs off the step ladder, leaps, and nails an Electric Chair Drop. Weigel smashes through the four chairs and crushes two of them pretty badly. Skylar hooks the leg, but at two, he lets go and signals for one more move.

Trunks: There's no tribute like a flaming, violent, painful one.

Skylar grabs a table from the outside... then another table... then a big leather bag. He enters the ring. Weigel is still out cold. Skylar sets up one table, and opens the leather bag. He pulls out a can of lighter fluid, dumping it all over the table. A few matches later, and the table is ablaze. He then stacks the second table on top of that. The crowd is going apeshit. Skylar drags Weigel to the corner and stands on the second rope. He holds out his arms crucifix style and hoists Weigel up. He leaps from the second rope and nails the High Rise, a devastating Piledriver. Not only does he nail it, but it goes straight through both tables in a flaming god damn nightmare. Skylar doesn't even have to pin, the refs ring the bell out of fear for another tribute.

*ding ding*

"Here is your winner, Skylar X!!!"

Skylar stands and holds out his arms again, and the crowd gives a great pop. He walks straight into the crowd without any security, and in a flash of cameras, he fades into the stands.

"The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL!!!"

"Headstrong" by Trapt hits. The crowd is on their feet they are cheering and holding up signs just having a good old time. Damien appears at the top of the ramp smiling and waving to his fans. He walks down the ramp to where the fans are at and signs some autographs, takes a few pictures, pretty much interacts with the fans. After he interacts with the fans he slides in the ring.

Trunks: This should be a good match Joey!

Joey: Indeed it should Trunks.

"Master of Puppets" by Metallica explodes through the speakers and the crowd goes absolutly wild. As light blue and white strobe lights scan around the crowd the entrance stage erupts with red pyros. His face is ice cold and emotionless as he proceeds from the entrance stage down the ramp with a building amount of confidence in his step. As he arrives at the bottom of the steel rampway he takes a turn to the right and asscends on to the black steel steps at the ring post in the far right corner. Ace proceeds up the stairs, taking his sweet time. Ace steps up onto the apron and walks along it a bit letting his right hand glide lightly along the top rope, making it twitch a bit. Ace then stops and looks out at the screaming fans. He slowly raises his arms in the air and lets out a mighty roar to the crowd, much to their delight. They return with a tremendous ovation as there isn't a single person in their seat at this point. He finally lets his arms drop before turning and stepping over the middle rope and ducking down under the top as he steps into the ring.

DC lifts up ace and delivers a devestating back drop. DC is now in control as he goes to lift up hart again hart however gives DC the old eye poke Dc is blinded and swings but inadvertanley knocks the ref down! Hart then swings DC to the ropes and delivers a clothsline sending both men to the outside. hart is the first one to his feet this time as he goes to grab a steel chair..he bashes DC over the head with it!

"The following contest is scheduled for ONE FALL and is for #1 Contendership to the W2K Championship!"

Arena turns pitch black, "Out of My Way" by Seether blasts, as lights slowly come back on, Widow is standing under the jumbo-tron with her arms crossed, looking around at the fans and smiling her seductive smile then proceeds down the ramp....as she starts to walk down the ramp, pyro simultaneously explodes to either side of her. She paces herself down the ramp then slides into the ring.

"Wont back down" by Feul blasts over the P.a. system. Damo takes his time walking down the rampway then climbs into the ring.

Damo goes right to work as he charges straight at widow spearing her down then giving her a few left and rights. Widow is blocking the blows with her arms as she kicks Damo in the back sending him off her and into the ropes. Widow then delivers a spinning neckbreaker. Widow has now taken control of this match up. Widow lifts up damo then swings him to the turnbuckle. She lights him up with a few chops. With each chop you can hear the fans scream. But wait Damo reverses her sending her to the turnbuckle. He then gives Widow the same treatment. He then gives her a huge slap in the face.then knocking her down face first with his strength. Damo lifts her up and is now taunting her making a signal saying he will be the number one contender. Damo kicks her down again. Damo raises his hands in the air. But wait Widow swings her leg over and sweeps Damo down on his back. Widow gets up then lifts up Damo and delivers a huge suplex. This suplex even made the ring shake!. Widow then runs to ropes and does a legdrop. she goes for a early cover 1..2 kickout shorty after two. Widow then begins giving lethal kicks to Damo's face. Widow has given at Damo at least fifteen kicks. Damo grabs hold of Widow's foot twisting her down then lifting her up over his head delivering a german suplex. Damo smiles as damage has been done. He goes for the cover 1...2..kickout by Widow! Damo doesn't really seemed to be bothered, he lifts widow by the hair but Widow elbows Damo in the face. Widow then kicks him in the gut and gives Damo a ddt straight from hell. She then lifts up Damo and swings him to the ropes..runs at him then gives The monster a hurricanrana! Damo's pretty much in ga ga land at this point. Widow goes to the top rope and MOONSaULT! Widow delivers a huge moonsault on damo. Widow goes for the cover

Trunks: Widow is certainly holding her own against MSN's monster.

Joey: Damo will come out on top just you wait.

Trunks: Damo still has alot left in him. It's going to take alot to bring the big man down.

Joey: She should just give up.

Damo rises to his feet as Widow charges at him. However Widow is met with Damo's arm as he gives her a devestating clothsline. Damo lifts widow back up and gives her a slap to the face as well. Damien then gives Widow a ddt. but he doesn't go for the cover he just lifts her back swings her to the turnbuckle and charges ramming his whole body into her. DD swings Widow to another turnbuckle and again he charges ramming his body into hers. She is barely able to catch her breath before Damo knocks her down with a clubbing right hand. It seems as if now DD is just toying with her. by this point fans are thinking Damo will be the number one contender. But wait Widow gets up and delivers rights and lefts. Hard rights and lefts followed by a kick to the mid section followed by a piledriver! Damo is down and Widow once again goes to the top rope. She leaps and connects with her knees dropping on Damo's face. Widow goes for the cover

Widow then lifts up Damo who in a quick second reverses and gives Widow a powerslam. Damo signals for the Obliterator! as Widow gets to her feet she turns around and walks right into the Obliterator but as Damo swings her down she reverses in mid air into the "Widows Web"!

Trunks: Oh my god what a counter!

*ding ding*

"Here is your winner and the new number one contender to the W2K Championship..Black Widow!!"

Trunks: You got to give it up for both of these athletes. Black Widow will either be facing WRM or Matt Taylor for the w2k title next month.

Joey: Hey look! It's...It's...

Widow is raising her arms in victory, but the crowd is suddenly lit up. Out of no where Terri LaMin Dangerously comes into the ring and whacks Widow over the head with a chair, knocking her out. Terri lets out a laugh as she exits the ring. Widow is holding her neck, but already she's glaring up at Terri. Out of loyalty, the fans are screaming "EC TERRI!". Widow growls, and it turns into a bloody roar as she claws at the ropes to stand.

Trunks: Terri has returned to Wrestling 2000! But why did she attack Widow?

Joey: I guess we're going to have to wait for answers!!!

"The following contest is a United States Championship bout, scheduled for ONE FALL!"

Exodus already awaits in the ring as we return to it, just standing there and looking towards the stage. He didn't come for flash and glitz. He came to finish a job he started, and that's exactly what he's going to do. Ryan Cain FEARS him. Ryan Cain is SCARED SHITLESS. Cain can't win when he's scared shitless, now can he? Exodus glares menacingly as "96 Quite Bitter Beings" by CKY hits the speakers. The crowd gets on their feet, roaring for Cain. they know he's afraid, and they want to help him out. They get some good news when Cain walks out through the gorilla position and stands on the stage, staring down Exodus. He's got fear in his eyes and it's obvious. Ex doesn't even wait, he exits the ring and begins walking up the stage.

Joey: Welcome back to the ring folks, and man, I sympathize with Ryan Cain.

Trunks: His biggest fear... lumbering towards him. I mean, rumor has it that Ryan Cain was KILLED by this guy. KILLED, Joey. Do you want to meet a guy who KILLED you?

Joey: Every night I work with the guy who killed my career... why not.

Cain is frozen as Exodus gets closer, and suddenly he bolts back behind the curtain and the crowd gets pissed. Exodus gets up to the entrance and pulls the curtain back, but he gets a face full of Fire Extinguisher. The smoke is all over, and Cain leaps through and clocks Exodus in the head. He doesn't fall, but he staggers. Cain gets some confidence from this and runs in, dropkicking Exodus. He reels back to the edge of the stage, dangerously close to losing balance.

Joey: CAIN IS ON FIRE!!! HE'S NOT AFRAID!

Trunks: Oh God... LOOK OUT!

Cain runs and tackles Exodus off the stage, and both plummet down. In a flash of cameras, they crash through two tables covered in rubber wires and tools. Splinters fly everywhere, and in the end of it, Exodus is laying there out cold, and Cain is beginning to stand. The crowd is ROARING, and Cain can feel that he's triumphed. He raises his arms, but suddenly he feels a cold chill. The crowd roaring gets louder, but there's booing. Cain hears shuffling behind him. He turns around and Exodus is... is...

Joey: He's STANDING!!!

Not only that, but he's holding one of the tools... a screwdriver. He holds it in a knife-like position, glaring down Ryan Cain. You can see the color in Cain's face change, the momentum gone. He's back to square one when he sees that screwdriver. Cain turns and bolts towards the ring with Exodus storming after him. They make it back to the ring, and instead of taking the offense when Exodus enters, he runs the other way. Exodus follows Cain outside of the ring, and they have a chase around the apron. Cain enters the ring, but Exodus is one step ahead and is already in there. Instead of reacting, Ryan freezes up, and Exodus LEVELS him with a Clothesline.

*ding ding*

Joey: Finally, the match has officially started.

Exodus growls, tossing the screwdriver to a corner. He wants to play. Cain stumbles to his feet, he turns around and Exodus grabs him around the throat. Cain goes limp with fear. Exodus Chokeslams him right then and there, and the impact on Cain's neck is sick. Ryan is dragged to his feet. Exodus places him on the ropes and starts wailing with punches. Several times Ryan seems able to fight back, but he's paralyzed with terror. His eyes are wide, dreading each punch.

Trunks: Joey, this kid is going to die if he doesn't get over it.

Joey: He had the confidence, but he lost it Trunks.

Trunks: That screwdriver scared him shitless. And standing up after that fall...

Joey: Exodus is indeed frightening, but Cain has to overcome it.

Ryan raises a fist to punch, but it's trembling. Exodus doesn't even move, he just stands there waiting for the punch. When it doesn't come, he grabs Cain's arm and twists it around, and levels him with a Short Arm Clothesline again. Cain is pulled up by the hair and Exodus pulls him in for a Powerbomb. The crowd is going beserk. They've stopped booing Ryan and now they attempt a rally. Exodus looks around expressionless as the stands light up with "Ryan Cain! Ryan Cain! Ryan Cain!". He looks down at Ryan Cain as if just noticing he was there. He's toying with Ryan and the crowd now.

Joey: Oh man... this is hard to watch.

Exodus pulls several times, but is only toying around before delivering the Powerbomb. The Ryan Cain chants are shaking the arena now, they want him to come back somehow. To pull through. Cain looks like a statue down there, not moving a muscle. Suddenly though, there's a loud cheer as Cross and Riot rush down to ringside!!! They chant along with the crowd, slamming their fists into the apron. Now they all follow suit, pounding the floor and their chairs. It's an outcry. One at a time, Ryan moves his limbs. Exodus is busy glaring at the stands. Ryan grabs Exodus' legs with his arms, ducks his neck down, and then brings it straight back up into Exodus groin!!!

Joey: He's going to counter the powerbomb!

But Exodus quickly slams down forearms into Cain's back, weakining him.

Trunks: So much for that...

Exodus lifts Cain up onto his shoulders... but once again Ryan springs to life. He fires punches into Exodus' face, over and over, for almost a full minute. Exodus is stumbling now... stumbling... and finally Cain falls forward onto Exodus' stomach, knocking him down. Ryan gets up and stumbles to the corner, and the fans are all for him now. He gets up using the ropes and turnbuckles. He turns himself around, but BAM!!! Exodus splashes him in the corner. Cain stumbles forward dizzy, and Exodus grabs him by the throat to choke him. The referee tries to seperate them. Hell, even Cross gets on the apron to yell, but the ref gets distracted and goes to get Cross down.

Trunks: Ah hell, choking is a bad way to go.

Joey: It's all wrong... Cain overcame his fears though, hell of a match.

Before Exdus can choke him to death, Cain withdraws something he was concealing. In a flash, Exodus is cracked over the head with the handle of the screwdriver. Cain tosses it to Riot, who hides it. Exodus releases and staggers around... Cain gets a running start, bounces off the ropes... flips around... WHAM! He nails the Whip FOCKING Lash on Exodus. Cross jumps off the apron. The ref drops into the count. ONE! TWO! THREE!!!

*ding ding*

"Here is your winner and STILL United States Champion... RYAN CAIN!!!"

Joey: I wasn't sure he would recover after that swell in the beginning of the match, but Cain became a man tonight. He faced down death and beat it in a title match.

Trunks: Well it's always a good match when nobody gets stabbed.

Cain and Cross raise each other's arms in the ring as the scene fades to the back.

"The following contest is an 'I Quit' match. In order to win it, you must force your opponent to admit defeat and say 'I Quit'. No other rules or regulations apply, and the referees are only there to confirm the finish. Starting us off, from... well, some kind of alternate dimension... weighing in at 264 Pounds, Azrael!!!"

Purple strobes and fog cover the stage as "Drunken Butterfly" by Sonic Youth groans into the arena. Azrael walks out onto the stage, carrying the Crown of Thorns kendo. The arena is hot on his heels, booing him straight to the pits of boo-dom. Azrael pays them no mind, simply talking strategy with Thorny. The two of them make their way down the ramp, but before they can, the lights go out.

"Hailing from Hollywood, California, weighing in at 237 pounds, The God of Wrestling, The Supernova... JT KASH!!!"

"Aero Zeppelin" by Nirvana hits, but when the lights come on, JT Kash isn't on the stage... he's in the ring!!! Azrael turns around on the ramp only to find JT vaulting over the ropes. JT makes a long distance Suicide Dive, and he takes out Azrael. Immediately JT starts pounding fists into Az, taking out all of his pent up frustrations. He hammers away relentlessly.

Joey: After everything that's happened to JT Kash, he's earned this. Azrael has tormented him from day one of his mysterious appearance, and this is the culmination of that.

Trunks: Poor Miss Ashley... for once I agree with you Joey.

JT gets up and acknowledges the crowd, who roar on cue. He goes to the ring apron and lifts it up, and although Skylar took most of the heavier appliances with him, JT finds himself a table. He doesn't even set it up, he just leans it against the apron. Azrael gets up, and JT grabs him by the hair, gets a running start, and runs Azrael right through the table. It folds around him and JT rips the shattered table away. He then drops down and resumes punching the shit out of Azrael.

Trunks: Not fancy, but damn, that looked painful.

Joey: This is pure brutality, Trunks. It's I Quit!

Azrael manages to shove JT away, and he makes a desperate leap into the ring. He tries to crawl away, but JT is right on his tail. JT rips Azrael up and takes him to the turnbuckle in the corner. He rips the pad off and grabs two handfuls of Azraels hair. The crowd counts off as JT smashes Azrael's face into the turnbuckle not once, not twice... not five times, not seven... ten times Azrael's face smashes into steel. As JT pulls him back, Azrael is busted open.

Joey: That's for Ashley, you son of a bitch!

JT whips Azrael away, but yanks him back at the last second and Azrael flies back into the exposed turnbuckle. Azrael staggers around right into a chop to the chest that knocks him onto his back. Winded, he stays there as JT climbs the top rope. As the referee tries to plead with JT, despite that not being his job in this match, Azrael kicks the ref in the ass. He flies into the ropes, and JT gets knocked off balance. JT drops and gets crotched on the exposed turnbuckle. Ouch. Azrael sits up and makes his way up the top rope.

Trunks: There shouldn't even be any refs here. God damn. NO RULES.

Azrael hooks up JT and easily swings him back in a Superplex. JT cradles his back, but as Azrael tries to pick him up, he fires back with chops to the chest. Azrael gets stunned. JT runs off the ropes, but unfortunately Azrael was ready for him. Azrael lifts him and delivers a modified Spinebuster. The modification is that JT's lower back was driven right into Azrael's knee!!!

Joey: Oh man, that is CRUSHING. That's a turning point right there.

Trunks: Azrael's entire gameplan revolves around the back, Joey.

Joey: I know that, and damnit if it weren't for that referee...

Azrael starts driving quick knees into JT's spine like a massage therapist gone mad. He drags JT to his feet, but grabs a handful of hair and just yanks JT backwards, driving his back into Azrael's waiting knee. Azrael exits the ring, shoves the timekeeper over, and grabs his chair. He folds it and heads over to JT, who's beginning to get up. He never gets the chance as Azrael throws two sharp chair shots into JT's back. The first makes him arch his back in pain, and the second knocks him onto his stomach. Azrael uses the side of the chair as a battering ram, smashing it into JT's spine. He sets up the chair, and then drags JT into a sitting position.

Trunks: Christ, what's he going to do now?

Azrael bounces off the ropes back and snaps back. He thrusts forward with his Spinal Tap, an extremely forceful Spear/Gore variation. The impact knocks JT backwards out of the chair, and throws him all the way out of the ring. Azrael grabs the chair, folding it again, and follows to the outside. JT's attempt to get to his feet is foiled again with a blunt shot to the ribs. JT folds over, but Azrael tosses himt he chair to mimmick a little Divine Intervention. Azrael tries a Superkick version, but JT somehow opens and closes the chair right on Azrael's knee!!! Azrael falls to the floor, but just for good measure, JT drops an elbow on the chair, further crushing Azrael's knee.

Joey: Yes!!! Come back JT! come back!

JT rips the chair off unceremoniously, and drags Azrael to his feet. He tugs hard and Irish Whips, sending Azrael into the stairs. Azrael collides with them, knee first, and immediately falls over cradling the injury. JT has the chair and he lets loose on Azrael's knee. Shot after shot connects, each time causing Azrael to yell out. JT drags the knee onto the steel stairs. He quickly fires down with a LOUD chairshot that sandwiches the knee between steel. Azrael goes beserk. JT rolls him into the ring and follows after. He grabs the leg and wraps around it, falling backwards into a formidable Figure Four Leg Lock- of course a throwback to Lucas. Azrael flails and flops, and that knee is killing him. The referee has returned now in case he gives up.

Trunks: Quit! Quit you dorkface! Nobody likes you! Go home!

Joey: I wish he would quit breathing.

JT leans backwards, sharpening the pain. Azrael is trying to swat at him, but sitting up is causing him too much pain. He falls backward onto the mat, which would normally be a pin, but not here. JT realizes he can't win if Azrael passes out, and so he releases the hold. He falls onto Azrael and start strangling him, demanding that he quit. Azrael sees a chance and doesn't pass it up. He thrusts a kick up and low blows JT. JT falls over and Azrael quickly rolls from the ring to grab the CoT kendo. Much to his surprise, he is met by The Legendary Lucas!!! And the crowd goes wild!!! Lucas rips Thorny away and takes it to Azrael with rights and lefts. He delivers a kick to Azrael's knee and Azrael falls. Quicker than you can read this sentence, Lucas gets him in a tight, flawless Figure Four.

Joey: WOOO!!! Lucas!!!

Trunks: That guy is Legendary, Joey. Ironically, his last match had this same stipulation!

Unfortunately, Azrael is in reach of the CoT kendo. He grabs it, and he cracks Lucas in the face. Lucas gets busted open instantly, and Azrael is able to turn over the Figure Four!!! JT recovers and goes to exit the ring and help, but before he can, the lights black out in the arena.

Trunks: You'd think people would find a new way to make an entrance.

Joey: Oh, I can only shiver imagining what could be in that darkness.

When the lights return, the entire crowd is in a bloody uproar. JT hasn't left the ring, but it doesn't look like he has to now, as Lucas is gone and Azrael is laying there. JT turns around and freezes in his tracks. Standing there is the monster from Azrael's promos, only it's no monster... it's Ashley. She's pale and sickly. Most of her face is covered by a porcelain mask, but the uncovered eye stares at JT. He's stunned, along with everyone else.

Joey: M... My god...

Trunks: It's TRUE?! She's ALIVE?

Joey: If you can call it that. What the hell did Azrael do to her?

Ashley is silent as JT reaches out to her and touches her. She looks very confused and torn. Obviously Azrael has been telling her the evils of JT Kash, and now face to face she is conflicted. However, before this can go on any longer, Azrael flies from the corner of the ring and nails JT in the back with the Spinal Tap!!! JT crumples from the damage already done to his spine. Ashley just stands there, clearly not in any kind of sane state of mind. Azrael drags JT to the side ropes and in moments he has JT handcuffed. JT hangs limply, almost as if on a crucifix. Azrael throws a few heavy punches to keep him down.

Joey: Oh no... not this. Has he not been through enough?!

Azrael then takes up the Crown of Thorns and holds it high, envoking an entire arena's worth of booing. He goes to hit JT, but stops suddenly. He grins, and turns to Ashley- or whats left of her. He holds out the CoT to her, and she reaches out and grabs it. The arena is raining down jeers. Ashley limps and staggers to where JT is and holds the kendo stick upright. Again, she looks torn on whether or not to strike.

Joey: This is wrong, she's out of her mind...

Trunks: The girl's gone retarded, and she thinks JT is the reason why?

Joey: Don't do it, Ashley!

She raises the kendo and all JT can do is watch helplessly. However, after a moment, Ashley lowers the kendo. She can't bring herself to do it! That's a nice warm moment, until Azrael shoves her from behind. The barbed wire richochets off JT's forehead and slashes him wide open. He screams and shakes his head around, unable to grab at it with his hands cuffed. Ashley is shocked, if you can even gather that from what you can see of her expression. Azrael laughs darkly, mad with the thought of revenge. However, his tune changes when Ashley turns to him with the CoT in her hands.

Trunks: Uh, she looks violent Joey.

Joey: Recreating how he almost murdered her? He deserves it!

Ashley staggers towards him, almost zombie-like. Azrael's eyes go wide with fear, and he stumbles backwards, accidentally tripping himself up. He falls down into the corner of the ring, and Ashley comes closer and closer. He seems to realize what he's done to her, and the fear overwhems him. He screams out to her, trying to plead.

Azrael: "It was an accident!!! Get the hell away from me!!!"

Ashley raises up the CoT, expressionless.

Azrael: "Alright!!! I QUIT!!! Jesus Christ, I quit!!! Get her away!!!"

No bell rings. Everyone is dead focused on what Ashley will do. She seems to freeze, realizing that Azrael has been defeated here. Seeing a window, he thrusts up and shoves her down. Unfortunately for him, he didn't seem to realize that the refs had been cutting JT free this entire time. So just as he shoves Ashley, he stumbles right into the-

Trunks: STIGMA KILLER!!!

Ruthlessly, JT drags Azrael right back up again, and delivers another Stigma Killer.

*ding ding*

JT ignores the bell, and another Stigma Killer rocks the ring. The fans are chanting, but JT is clearly going nuts out there. Now the referees are pouring in to stop the madness, and in the shuffle, Ashley just sort of disappears. JT slows up from the intense blood loss caused by the Crown of Thorns, and is helped to the back as "Aero Zeppelin" plays. The blood is covering his face, dripping down his chest. But tonight, he won.

Joey: He avenged Ashley, Trunks. He put that asshole in his place.

Trunks: She helped him too, but where is she?

Joey: I didn't really see, to be honest.

"Here is your winner, the Supernova JT KASH!!!"

Nobody helps Azrael, and the scene fades him him face down in the ring.

Cameras rush to follow WRM as he drags Matt through the backstage, bashing him into things. Matt smashes the plastic covering on a nearby soda machine with his face, and Dr Pepper cans spill all over. WRM whips him into some fencing, and then drags him along it, grating him like cheese. Taylor is obviously caught way off guard, and WRM is much too ready for this. Taylor gets a Fireman' Carry right into the catering table, and it breaks underneath him. Sandwich meats go all over the place.

Joey: Are we on? Hello?

Trunks: I think we are. Oh man, this is a straight up BRAWL.

Joey: WRM refused to wait another second, even for poor Sapphire!

A parked limo is the next victim as WRM drags Matty over there. Taylor tries hard to fight back now, realizing it's do or die. He fires punches into WRM, quick ones, hard ones. WRM reels enough for Taylor to grab him by the face and smash him into the limo's hood. Taylor gets a good grip on WRM's arm, and he whips him up into the limo. The Rodster smacks into the windsheild and cracks it big time. WRM rolls off slowly, and he and Taylor brawl into another area. The cameras stay on the limo for a moment though, because the back door opens and a long, gorgeous leg comes out... followed promptly by Isabella Taylor!!!

Trunks: It's Izzy!! Izzy is HERE!!!

Joey: Hey, that limo has been here the entire time!!! I saw it on the way in!!!

Trunks: What the hell?

WRM and Matt have fought their way into the production area now. WRM shoves Matt into a table full of soundboards and electronics, and damn if the whole thing doesnt topple over on top of the English Phenom. WRM comes over to finish the job, but an arm thrusts out from behind the table and smashes a small television on WRM's head. The glass shatters everywhere, and Mercy is busted open. Taylor leaps out from behind the table and drives WRM backwards, slamming him into a dressing mirror. Taylor tries to crack it using WRM's head, but WRM counters and throws Matt right into it. Taylor flies and smashes the mirror to peices. He's not moving a lot after that.

Joey: Jeez, this is brutal! Theyre already bleeding and bruised!

WRM is able to drag Matt around with ease after that, and no sooner does he shove Matt through a curtain then the entire arena goes wild! The fight is heaed to the ring! WRM follows Matt out onto the stage and smashes him from behind. Matt falls and takes a tumble down the ramp, coming to a stop at the bottom. WRM runs down there and rolls Matt into the ring.

"The following contest is for the W2K Championship and... ack!"

WRM grabs a chair from the bell area and brings it into the ring. Matt Taylor is only just getting up when WRM nails him in the head with a chair and lays him out. To stop the brawling, the referee is forced to signal a bell to start the match.

*ding ding*

Trunks: This is messed up, Taylor is gone before we started.

Joey: What I'm interested in is the other Taylor, Izzy. What's she up to?

WRM doesn't bother hooking the leg. This isn't about that. He picks up Matt and whips him off the ropes. Matt doesn't even make it, he falls on his face and rolls onto the outside mats. WRM dives after him, picking him up. He goes to whip Matt into the steel pole, but Matt somehow reverses and WRM goes into it. Matt shoves him from behind and Rodney hits it a second time. He stumbles around a little, shaking it off. A few moments later, WRM decides to get back on Matt, but can't find him. He looks up just in time to get caught with a huge splash by the Englishman from the top rope!!! The crowd loves it!

Joey: Matt bringing it home to his top rope game.

Taylor drags WRM into the ring and returns to the top rope. The Rodster get back to his feet, only to be snagged by a Flying Head-Scissors from Matt off the top rope. Matt hooks it right into a pin, but only gets a two count. WRM busts out and gets on his feet, but Matt hits a nice Dropkick and sends WRM to the corner. Matt runs for a Splash and WRM ducks down, but Matt jumps off WRM's back to the top rope. WRM turns around and gets caught by a crazy Tornado DDT. Matt hooks he leg... One... Two... NO!!!

Joey: Wow, that was close. Matt is pulling out the stops.

Trunks: Whatever stops are left, he's low on energy.

Joey: Very true, the match was halfway to hell when the bell rang.

Taylor goes to the top rope again, but this proves to be a fatal mistake. WRM has quickly realized the nature of the game and rushed to the corner himself. Matt turns around to jump, but WRM is right there. Matt gets caught with a Superplex, and it really took the wind out of his sails. WRM covers, only two. He grabs Matt and drives hard knees into his gut before nailing a vicious Brainbuster Suplex. No cover this time, WRM is back on his game. He lifts Matt and whips him off the ropes, but runs up behind him and drives a hard knee into his spine before Matt can bounce. He whips to the other side to attempt again, but Matt leaps, springboarding off the ropes and moonsaulting backwards. He catches WRM in a Reverse DDT in mid air!!! BAM!!! Matt hooks the leg... One... Two... NO!!!

Joey: Another close call for the only UK male on our roster.

Trunks: WRM is getting confused by Matt's aerial expertise.

But once again Matt makes the mistake of being too repetative. He goes to the top rope, and WRM is able to cut him off. WRM runs up there and delivers a HUGE German Suplex from the top. Matt is planted. Now WRM gets his chance to go up to the top. He takes a little more time than Matt, and somehow Matt pulls the energy to get to the ropes. He climbs up them and shakes the top rope to throw WRM off balance a little. The distraction is enough. Matt runs up the ropes and delivers a harsh Enzuguri to WRM. The shot is loud as a gunshot. WRM staggers, swaggers, and then plummets down to the mat. Taylor climbs up the ropes, hopefully for the final time in his mind. He's put his entire strategy up there to throw off WRM, and now he hopes to make it pay off.

Joey: He could be going for his 450 variation, English Style...

Trunks: I think he is!

Indeed, he signals for it, and WRM is sprawled. Matt takes flight and spins, connecting!!! Unfortunately, he connects with WRM's knee caps. Matt bounces off and flies back into the corner, clutching his ribs. WRM is up in a flash. Matt swings at him to keep him at bay, but WRM ducks the punch. Matt takes another wide swing, and WRM ducks behind. Matt turns around... THE ROD EFFECT!!! Taylor is dropped and out like a light. Finally WRM hooks the leg. One... Two... Three!!!

*ding ding*

Joey: What a match! Taylor gave it his all, I think.

Trunks: I'd like to see them go again some time.

Joey: WRM remains the W2K Champion, and Widow is once again in the future for him!

"Here is your winner and STILL W2K Champion... William Rodney Mercy!!!"

WRM is handed back his Championship, and he raises it up over his head. We cut from here to a scene in the back...
