[ Fade back to ringside, as after a few moments of silences, we hear "Head for a Hole", and the crowd immediately boos...

Askin: "We should all know that music...."

Macklin: "The guy who used to sign our paychecks...'

[ Indeed, Jeremy McMillion walks out, arms at either side, raising up, and smiling, even as trash is thrown at him.... but he gets to the ring...

Macklin: "Alot of people, fans and wrestlers alike, don't wanna be watching this guy right now."

Askin: "He's here on a mission of peace, to congratulate his son..."

[ Jerm steps in the ring, and the fans fill it with trash and cups and whatever else they have...

Jerm: "Today is a great day for me. Today, I am PROUD of one o fmy children. So proud, I've decided to come down to San Antonio, the filthiest city in the world- and I mean gene pools, not city streets- and give him the respec tthat he deserves from eacha nd every one of you. So without further ado- let's bring out my son, my prodgeny, the apple of my eye, the chip off the old block- CHRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISTIAN MICHHAAEEEEEELS!!!!!!!"

[ "Kryptonite" drums on, as Christian Michaels comes down weary of his own father....

Jerm: "There he is. The King of PWT. The God of Wrestling. The single greatest wrestler spanning MSN.... my boy."

[ CM enters the ring.

Macklin: "He's laying it on thick, isn't he?"

Askin: "Well, he WAS a wrestling promoter."

[ CM has a mic now.

CM: "Why don't you cut the crap, dad? I mean, we all KNOW why youre here, and it's not because I won the King of PWT, and it's not because I won the God of Wrestling. It's because MSN WA failed, and you want to crawl back into what you know and you want to use me to do it. You have an agenda, and it's got my name written all across it."

Jerm: "No! No!"

Macklin: "Christian is a smart guy, pinning the Jerm exactly for what he is."

Jerm: "That's not it at all, Chris. I've seen the light. I'm born again. You could say, I've turned to CHRISTIAN-anity. I see you as the guiding light for all of MSN, and I just want you to know... my beloved only son-"

CM: "... what about Simon?"

Jerm: "Si- oh. Right. My beloved only son, Chris... that I can see my true evil contorted humanity now. I can see how I hurt you and Amber and the other kid. I understand I wasn't there, but don't blame me! I didn't know how to be there for you. I could only watch an dhope beyond hope that you'd figure it out and find your own path to success, and boy, son, you did. You did."

CM: "D-"

Jerm: "AND- to celebrate, I want to let everyone know that I used my money for something good today. I woke up this morning, and I donated to a charity. A Christian charity. i think it had something to do with kids and things like that. Then i went out to eat for lunch, and I bought anyone who has a bill less than ten dollars their meal. Then I went to court and officially had my name changed to Jeremy.... MICHAELS!"

[ CM is almost floored.

Askin: "WHAT?! Who the hell would want people to know they're related to Christian?"

Macklin: "Indeed, a weird move for Jeremy Mc- uh, Michaels."

Jerm: "Because, I love you son. I love every little inch of ya. Infact, I put not only my name on th eline, but my career in MSN on the line for you. All for you."

CM: ".... what are you getting at?"

Jerm: "It''s no secret that Hamid Ismaili and I don't get along. But I sat down, a thousand miles away and had a civilized conversation with him over the phone. For you. And I pulled some strings. And I was able to convince him to make you number one contender for the Wrestling 2000 Championship!"

[GASP!!!!!!!!!!!!

Macklin: "WE HAVE A CONTENDER! IT IS MICHAELS! BAH GAWD, IVE TURNED INTO JIM ROSS!"

[ CM sighs deeply, slowly nodding his head, as the fans chant for him. CHRIS-TTIAN MIKE-ALLS! over and over and over... He turns away from Jerm, and mulls this over.

Jerm: "What do you say, Son? We put the past in the past? Where it belongs, and you take my hand- no, wait, we hug on it. Father and son. Son?"

[CM shrugs, as people tell him not to do it... but he turns around and goes to hug, and he and the Jerm embrace...... and, while hugging, Jerm lifts the mic and says...

Jerm: "Just make sure you win."

CM: "What?"

[The hug breaks.

Jerm: "Well, uh, Chris... it's part of the deal. You get number one contendership, and I told Ismaili that if you lost, I'd never step foot inside a W2K Arena again.... I mean, you've got to win. You will win. Ha, it's just DVD right? I mena, he probably wouldn't even show up."

CM: "I knew. I knew there was something to do with you at the bottom line. Thanks pops- for the title shot. But I gotta get go-"

[ "Deadly Game" comes up, as Kenny Justice walks out on stage and storms to the ring... He rolls in and takes the mic from the Jerm, who seems surprised, and even backs away, as KJ points right at CM.

KJ: "YOU? YOU just get a shot? You've got to be kidding. I've been busting my ass since day one to get somewhere here, and you just come in halfassed and get the damn title shot? I WON THE LADDER MATCH, people. I';m the XW and Impact Champions rolled into one! And you... you get handed everything... pfft."

CM: "You know what, you're right. I don't have a match tonight so uh, how about you put your money where your mouth is, and gamble a bit yourself? I'll gladly put my title shot on the line versus you, if it'll shut you up."

[KJ grins uncontrollably, but recollects himself.

KJ: "Alright... when should we do it... next pay per view? Next week? in the next... five seconds?!"

[With that, KJ spins and smashes CM in the brow with the mic, making him fall back into the ropes and on his butt... Jerm bails, grabbing his hair at the catastrophe before him...

Macklin: "Jeremy Michaels' future in W2K my be snuffed out by.. Kenny Justice?!"

[ KJ takes CM by the hair, and wrenches him over to the corner, and chops... WOOO! And again WOOO! Then he faints a chop again, but stops, and flips off the crowd- BOOOO! He then whips CM across the ring- Cm reverses it, and sends KJ to the turnbuckle- CM follows and Jumps high for a big knee to the chest- but KJ dives out of the way and Cm hits his head on the ringpost! Cm hangs on the top turnbuckle, and KJ rips him off, spinning him for a cover- ONE! TWO! NO!!! CM kicks out, as the crowd cheers.., and Jerm almost has a heart attack...

Askin: "Yeah, drive that dick into an early grave!"

[ CM is pulled up and scooped- and slides behind, the two hits to the head have slowed him down but he still manages a waist lock, and tosses KJ out onto the apron. CM gets a running startt, and KJ goes for a back body to fling CM out of the ring, but CM sees it coming and slides between KJ's legs, ending up on the outside and pulling his feet off- KJ's head hits the apron and he bounces back to the rails... CM spins an dlaunches a boot to the face that clips KJ in the face!! KJ's head rolls, and CM pries him up... sending him back into the ring... Kj rolls in, and grabs the mic again, as CM follows... CM goes to pick him up and when he does, KJ nails him between the eyes, and CM falls back. KJ goes to the ropes for the "All In", but as he gets his ballance, CM pops up from instinct, and kicks the top rope... KJ straddles, screaming for his balls, as CM hits the "Just Like That" from there, and rolls KJ- ONE! TWO! THREE! "Kryptonite" by Three Doors Down blasts, as Jemr greets his son with praise, as CM pushes him out of the way to head backstage....

Macklin: "And now, Christian has retained his right, I guess atleast in my eyes, to face David Van Dam in the near future for the W2K Championship!!!

Askin: "Thanks to daddy, huh?"
