Joey Kewl: "This could be a classic, Trunks."

Trunks: "I promise you Dante is getting WAY MORE than he bargained for coming up against Dangerously."

Joey Kewl: "Dante has recognised NED's quality though, Trunks."

Trunks: "Your damn right he has, Dangerously is the King of W2K."

We cut too Harold Binkle, W2K's Announcer, who stands in the centre of the ring...

Bink: "LLLLLLLLLLLLLADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!... THE FOLLOWING MATCH IS FOR ONE FALLLLLLL...."

Suddenly, the opening strains of ‘Go To Sleep�?by Eminem and the lights cut out.

"I ain't gonna eat, I ain't gonna sleep
Ain't gonna breathe, til I see, what I wanna see
And what I wanna see, is you go to sleep, in the dirt
Permanently, you just being hurt, this ain't gonna work
For me, it just wouldn't be, sufficient enough
Cuz we, are just gonna be, enemies
As long as we breathe, I don't ever see, either of us
Coming to terms, where we can agree
There ain't gonna be, no reason, speakin wit me
You speak on my seed, then me, no speakin Englais
So we gonna beef, and keep on beefin, unless
You're gonna agree, to meet with me in the flesh
And settle this face to face, and you're gonna see
A demon unleashed in me, that you've never seen
And you're gonna see, this gangsta pee on himself
I see you D-12, and thanks, but me need no help
Me do this one all by my lonely .."

This is when the song kicks in and pyros explode on either side of the entranceway and the house lights come back up. Dante steps out from behind the curtain, looking out over the fans as these Texas fans boo the hell out of the Hardcore Canuck. Dante starts walking down the aisle, jaw-jacking with a few of the more vocal fans as he heads to the ring, with the Impact Title belt wrapped round his waist.

Joey Kewl: "Dangerously might actually be the 'good guy' in this match, atleast in the fans view!"

".. I don't need fifteen of my homies
When I see you, I'm seeing you, me and you only
We never met, but best believe you gon' know me
When I'm this close, to see you exposed as phony
Come on, bitch, show me, pick me up, throw me
Lift me up, hold me, just like you told me
You was gonna do, that's what I thought, you're pitiful
I'm rid of you, all you, Ja, you'll get it too!"

He walks up the metal steps on to the ring apron and then hops over the top rope using the rope. He jumps up on to one of the turnbuckles and stands on the 2nd rope, looking out over the fans with a smirk that reeks of arrogance.

Bink: "FIRST!... FROM ONTARIO, CANADA... WEIGHING 236lbsssssssssss!!!... HE'S THE W-2-K IMPACT CHAMPIOOONN!!... HE'S THE 'HARDCORE CANUCK'..........DANTEEEE CROSSSS!!"

"Now go to sleep bitch!
Die, motherfucker, die! Ugh, time's up, bitch, close ya eyes
Go to sleep, bitch! (what)
Now go to sleep bitch!
Die, motherfucker, die! Ugh, time's up, bitch, close ya eyes
Go to sleep, bitch! (what)
Now go to sleep bitch!!!"

He shakes his head looking out a fan waving the Texas state flag and hops down. Dante leans in the same corner looking relaxed, waiting for his opponent. "King Nothing" rumbles across the PA, as a woman's voice repeats "Danger... danger... danger..." over and over. Red and white strobes flare across the rampway, and the song kicks in just after the woman says "You have just entered... the dangerzone!", at the chorus, and Nic E Dangerously walks out on stage, with arms extended parallel to the floor, and he spins as he walks down to the ramp. Gold is wrapped around his waist, and is hanging over his right shoulder.

Trunks: "THERE HE IS!"

Bink: "AAAAAAAAAAAAND HIS OPPONENT!! FROM SAN ANTONIOOOOO, TEXAS, U-S-AA!!!!!... WEIGHING 260lbssssssssssss!!!..... HE'S ONE HALF OF THE W-2-K TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS... AND ALSO THEEEE W-2-K HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONNN!!!!!................... 'THE PARADIGM'.... NIC..E..DANGEROUSLYYY!!!"

Once he hits the ring, he walks up the steps, holding the top rope with his left hand, as his right arm extends up, with a fist. He climbs into the ring, and immediately locks arms with Dante. Nic smirks a little.. then looks to the fans, and taps his W2K Championship belt. Dante looks at it, rather enviously...

Joey Kewl: "Maybe he IS a future W2K Champion, Trunks."

Trunks: "Im not saying last week's match with Rot wasnt impressive Joey, but is Dante really up too Dangerously's standard?"

Nic tosses his Tag belt too the referee.. and then slowly unclips his Heavyweight belt from his waist. Dante does the same with his Impact title belt.. as the two simply stare at each other as NED's music fades off, to be repalced with heightened atmosphere from the crowd. The referee collects the belts, and hands them too Binkle on the outside, so that we can get the match started.

A massive roar from the crowd is heard, it's about absolutely electric in this W2K Arena.

Trunks: "The sort've of electricity that only DANGEROUSLY can create, Joey."

Nic and Dante start circling the ring now, the atmosphere staying at the same high-level up until this point. NED smirks, rubbing his hands together slowly. Dante rushes toward the centre quickly, making NED step back... Dante smirks... and steps back once. Nic looks annoyed, glaring at Dante. Nic challenges Dante now, telling him too 'Step Up'... Dante shrugs, raising his arms to head height, saying 'Whatever you want, Neddy'... Dante and Nic now simulataineously CHARGE into the centre of the ring! POWERFUL ELBOW-AND-COLLAR TIE UP! NED's weight advantage is 30lbs but that doesnt seem to be particular telling at the moment, with both men being very even... They stay in the middle, both arching their backs too force the pressure more... and now Dante starts too slide back, unable too compete with Dangerously's power this time round. Before Dante reaches the ropes, Nic suddenly breaks the tie-up and reaches back for a big right hand... but ITS DUCKED! Dante turns back round, and spins NED round... KNEE TO THE GUT! Dante runs back too the opposite ropes, as Nic clutches his gut, staggering a little in the centre of the ring.... Dante bounces off the ropes and charges toward Nic... but gets caught- SAMOAN DROP!! Dangerously was playing possum there! Nic sits up, and smirks, the trademark sadistic smirk.... getting a roar out of some Hardcore W2K fans... real 'Dangerously' fans.

Trunks: "w00p!"

Dangerously climbs too his feet, and grabs Dante's head, slowly picking him up to his feet. NED gets Dante in a tight headlock, dragging him over too the turnbuckle, Dangerously tightens the headlock.. and then starts giving Dante some closed fist punches to the top of the head! After three stiff hits, Dante is thrown against the turnbuckle roughly. Dangerously gives him a vile blow too the gut. He steps out, raising his right arm too get another roar from the crowd... Dangerously suddenly charges in, and spins to his side to nail a ELBOW SMASH into Dantes face! Dangerously ROARS furiously as Dante staggers out the corner... Dante gets a big knee to the gut! Before Dangerously drives his shoulder into Dantes gut.. and lifts him up for a NORTHERN LIGHTS SUPLEX!!!

Joey Kewl: "Dangerously's dominant here!"

Nic doesnt hang on for the pin, he starts getting too his feet immediately. The pace is slowed right down to what Dangerously's likes best, a slow and methodical type of match. Dangerously starts picking apart Dante's back, angrily stomping down on the back of the shoulders. NED grabs Dante and rips him off the mat, tossing him into the nearby turnbuckle again... Dangerously walks away from Dante.. and then circles round and CHARGES TOWARD HIM!..... TWO BOOTS IN NED'S FACE! Dangerously staggers back, clutching his nose...

Joey Kewl: "Too casual by Dangerously!"

Danter lifts himself up onto a sitting position on the the turnbuckle... he stands up fully on the middle rope........ Jumping off for a MISSILE DROPKICK TOO NED'S CHEST!! Dangerously hits the canvas with a THUD! Dante and Dangerously now start climbing too their feet at virtually the same time... Dangerously turns round too a BIG RIGHT HAND!! NED staggers a little, catching him off guard there. Dante runs past NED, toward the ropes... he jumps.. SPRINGBOARD OFF THE MIDDLE ROPE.. LEAPING TOWARD NED........ But Nic turns round!... AND MANAGES TOO CATCH DANTE!!!

Trunks: "Powerrrrr!!"

Dangerously moves to the ropes, too try and dump Dante over the top... but Dante wraps his legs round Dangerously for a Body Scissors, hanging onto his head... too DRAG HIM OVER THE TOP ROPE TOO! BOTH MEN CRASH TOO THE FLOOR OUTSIDE! Both men clutch the back of their heads... Dangerously looks seriously angry as he climbs too his feet... Dante suddenly GRABS NED'S HAIR! And drags him down toward the barricade... SLAMMING his head against the steel railing! NED bounces back, shaking his head as he stumbles. Dante toe kicks him in the gut... european uppercut too NED... and then another... Dangerously now leans back against the railing. Dante climbs up onto the apron, and grabs onto the top rope... staring at Dangerously for a second... before LEAPING OFF.... CROSSBODY ON DANGEROUSLY'S CHEST, FLIPPING HIM OVER THE STEEL RAILING!!!!!........ Both men are in amongst the crowd now! Dante climbs too his feet, with chants of "Lets Go Neddy!" stirring around him... Dante tries too make himself some room... Dangerously lies on his back, clutching his lower back.......... Dante suddenly runs at the steel railing, stepping up onto the edge of it and FLIPPING BACK...... MOONSAULT!........

Joey Kewl: "OHHH NO!"

Dangerously rolled out the way! Dante seems hurt in a bad way, clutching his knees which nailed the floor with some ferocity. Dangerously now begins too climb up too his feet, roaring "Come on you Sonuvabitch!", recieving a ROAR of support from surrounding W2K fans. The referee is going nuts but isnt even considering starting a count out here. Dangerously grabs Dante's head, and picks up him too his feet... Nic gives Dante a vicious forearm smash to the jaw. Dante staggers around, wobbling a little.. Dangerously TACKLES HIM! DRIVING HIM BACK INTO THE STEEL RAILING!!! A massive BANG is heard as the impact is made. Dante clutches his back, looking up to the roof with pain visible in his expression. Dangerously climbs over the railing and back to ringside... he grabs Dante and drags him over too. Dangerously keeps Dante up on his feet.. and SLINGS him into the apron! Dangerously then grabs Dantes wrist, and whips him DOWN into the Steel Railing!!! Dante's head crashes against the railing and he droops too the floor, clutching his head...... Dante pulls his hand away, and his fingers are covered in blood from a cut too the back of his head...

Trunks: "Dangerouslys opened him up!"

Dangerously smirks, grabbing Dante's hair and pulling him up... Dangerouslys slams Dante FOREHEAD on the edge of the apron! Complete brutality by the 'King of the Indies', and he is loving every minute of it.. Dangerously turns Dante over, leaning back against the apron.... KNIFE EDGE CHOP!!!.... OVERHAND CHOP!..... KNIFE EDGE CHOP!!!! Dante clutches his chest, he's been the recieving end of some major punishment so far in this contest.

Joey Kewl: "Well Dangerously's been the better man so far, he's been clinical, Trunks. Although the referee's being really lenient here."

Trunks: "Too DQ Dangrously would be a major mistake, Joey."

NED grabs Dantes wrist again.. and goes for another whip into the railing- NO! Dante holds on, reversing the whip and sending Dangerously charging into the railing at pace!

Trunks: "DQ HIM!!!"

Dangerously clutches his left shoulder, which was the first too connect. Dante kicks NED UP into the gut! Dante grabs Nic's head and drags him round the ring toward the commentary table. Dante knee's NED up in the gut.. and then again! Dante looks hurt, but then extremely vengeful.. wanting too pay back NED for the punishment he's already dished out. Dante lifts Nic up Suplex style.... he manages to turn and face the tables with Dangerously lifted, showing his own strength.... and then DROPS Nic onto the table! The table doesnt break, but Dangerously clutches is chest and Joey and Trunks rise out there seats quickly... Dangerously slides off the table, too the floor. Joey and Trunks climb over the barricade too get out the way, and Dante leaps over the table, landing on Nic and THROWING VICIOUS RIGHTS AT HIS FACE!

Joey Kewl: "JESUS! DANTE'S LIVID!!"

The back of Dante's head is now soaked with blood... he touches the back of his head momentarily, looking at the blood covering his right hand... before slapping it right across NED's face! Dante gets up to his feet, standing over Dangerously. Dante raises both arms up, getting a mixture of boo's and cheers... Dante grabs Nic and drags him away from the Commentary area... pushing him toward the apron. Dangerously lifts up a leg onto the apron, and gets into the ring himself. Dante climbs in after him... and follows Dangerously as he crawls to the centre, then starts too climb up. Dangerously has a blood stain on one cheek, and he looks a little dazed... Dante runs off the ropes behind him, and runs up too NED.... BULLDOG!! Landed perfectly! Dante rolls Dangerously over for the matches first pinning predicament!

ONE!

TWO!.. Shoulder up!!

Joey Kewl: "I think Dangerouslys starting too realise he's in a real match now with the well-travelled, and very experienced Dante Cross."

Trunks: "Well-travelled?.. Like a Whore? or.."

Joey Kewl: "Uh....."

Dante grabs Nics head and starts lifting him too his feet... Dante shoves Dangerously back a little... then KNIFE EDGE CHOPS HIM ACROSS HIS CHEST!......... AND AGAIN!........ AND AGAIN!..... AND AGAIN!..... AND AGAIN!............... AND AGAIN!!!!

Trunks: "CHOPPING FRENZY!"

Nic's chest suffers some dis-colouration.. and he staggers back. Dante toe kicks him in the gut... Nic bends over... then Dante goes to the side of him, and lifts a Knee straight UP into Nic's nose! Dangerously staggers back, bouncing off the ropes... as Dante begins too gain some momentum, he charges up to NED, wrapping his arms round his neck and pressing both boots against Nic's gut for a MONKEY FLIP! Dante climbs to his feet.. and Dangerously, albeit wobbily, does the same.. DROPKICK TO NED'S ASS! Dangerouslt flies forward into the turnbuckle... and is now on all fours, facing the corner. Dante charges toward Nic, and jumps over him nicely, landing on the middle rope... Dante steps up too the top rope, as Dangerously starts climbing to his feet, right behind Dante.. Dangerously's almost fully up, when Dante jumps back.. landing on NED's shoulders!!! Nic turns round to face the middle of the ring... and Dante tries too roll forward but Dangerously keeps him on his shoulders, scuppering his plans. Dante suddenly starts driving right hands into NED's face... giving him a doorway.. Dante rolls forward, keeping his legs wrapped around NED's head... like a hurricanrana, but rolling NED into a PIN! Dante keeps NED's legs against his shoulders as he sits on his chest!

ONE!

TWO!...

THR- KICK OUT!!!

Trunks: "Oh!

Joey Kewl: "Ooooooooooo Dante almost had Dangerously there!!"

Dante rolls backwards too his feet, whilst Dangerously climbs up too his feet. Dante nails a light Dropkcik against NED, forcing NED too bounce back off the ropes.. Dante scrambles too his feet, and runs off the ropes opposite. Both men meet in the middle.... NED DUCKS THE CLOTHESLINE! Dangerously turns round as Dante does the same... and Dangerously toe kicks Dante in the gut, and grabs his arm from the side... going for the "Deus Ex Machina"... but Dante lands back on his feet, clutching NED's right wrist.. and twisting hhis arm round! Dante holds it there... Kick up into the gut.... then another... Dante twists the arm over again, NED gritting his teeth now. Dante is almost 'RVD-like' as he kicks Dangerously up into the face... Dante pulls NED's arm down, forcing Dangerously too roll forward. Dante releases the arm.. and BASEMENT DROPKICKS NED IN THE BACK OF THE HEAD! Dangerously clutches his head again, looking furious as he slowly climbs up too his feet. Dante kicks him up in the chest, not letting up, he then grabs NED's head and drags him over to the nearby turnbuckle. Dante, back to the turnbuckle, climbs up onto a sitting position on the top rope. He grabs Dangerously's head and pulls him towards him... OH! DANGEROUSLYS NAILS HIM WITH A RIGHT HAND!... AND ANOTHER!... AND ANOTHER! Dangerously pulls Dante off the top rope, making him land gut-first on his knee. Dante clutches his stomach, shaking his head.. NED hooks up his head, and lits him up for a suplex... but dumps his legs on the top rope... Dante is horizontal now, his head still hooked in NED's right arm................... "THE 151 DDT!"

Trunks: "OHHHHH!!"

Joey Kewl: "FREAKIN SICK DDT, TRUNKS!!"

Ouch! Dante lands right on the top of his head... his legs droop over now so that he lies fully flat on his back... Dangerously breathes hard, relief coming over his face, and he hooks over Dantes legs.

ONE!...

TWO!..

..

THR-KICK OUTTT!!!!!

Trunks: "WHAT WHAT WHAT?!?!?!?!?"

Dangerously is livid, he rises too his feet and asks the referee 'Just what the f*ck are you doing?!' ..... Dangerously grabs Dante's head, ripping him off the canvas. Dangerously drags him into the middle.. then whips him viciously into the ropes, with Dante FALLING OVER THE ROPES TO THE OUTSIDE!!!

Joey Kewl: "POWER!!... Sweet Jesus!!"

Dante is on his knee's... looking worse for wear now. Dangerously climbs out the ring, getting to the floor... and giving Dante a vicious body blow to the gut... before lifting him up and giving him a good Body Slam onto the cold floor. Dangerously looks pleased with himself as he stands over Dante... Dangerously raises his arms up, asking for a crowd reaction, and certainly getting one from these Texans. Dangerously grabs Dante's head, and lifts him up too his feet.. giving him a European uppercut, and letting him slump back against the steel railing. Dangerously turns, and climbs up onto the apron, and faces Dante again. Who's leant back against the barricade. Dangerously smirks, making a 'double fist' with his hands..... and JUMPING OFF... DOUBLE-AXE HAMMER....... MISSES!!!! Dante evaded it! And Dangerously lands gut first on the barricade!!!!

Joey Kewl: "OHHHHHH!!!!"

Trunks: "NO NO NO!!!"

Dante crawls too the apron, climbing up and rolling himself back into the back... Dangerously ffalls forward, back over the rail and into the crowd again. He clutches his gut.. as Dante uses the ropes too get himself too his feet. Dangerously shakes his head as he climbs up too his feet, even being helped by a couple of fans... Dangerously spits down at the ground, and pushes his hair back, and as he gets up to a vertical position.... Dante suddenly runs back to the ropes at the back. Dangerously slowly turns round too face the ring. Dante bounces off the ropes.. and runs toward NED's side.

Joey Kewl: "He's gonna do somethin' sick!"

DANTE USES THE TOP ROPE... FOR A VAULTING-BODY PRESS OVER THE ROPES... AND OVER THE BARRICADE ONTO A NIC E. DANGEROUSLY!!!! THE CROWD ERUPTS AFTER THAT ATHLETIC MANOUVRE!! EVEN GIVING THIS CANADIAN SOME PRAISE!!

Trunks: "WOAHH!!!"

Joey Kewl: "THATS SOME AIR-TIME, TRUNKS!!"

Suddenly the crowd seem kind've unhappy... as Sef Kinsley walks out from the back, and down the rampway, with a steel chair in hand.

Joey Kewl: "Oh jesus... This crowd love NED.. Hell, they love Sef... but they just hate it when the Texan Connection starts ganging up on people, Trunks. Why can't we just leave it one on one, huh?"

Trunks: "So where's Johnny, then?"

Joey Kewl: "I dunno, cowering in a corner?"

Kinsley smirks a little... and Dante clings onto the railing, rapidly losing strength as this match wears on. The referee goes nuts, screaming at Kinsley to get the hell outta there. Dante grabs Dangerously, and pushes him over the railing and back too ringside... Kinsley throws the Chair into the ring, and walks round to the competitors. Kinsley goes and grabs Dante, pulling him angrily over the railing and back too ringside. The referee turns too get the bell rung when suddenly...

"JUST HOLD IT JIZZMOPPER!...."

Joey Kewl: "Uh..."

It was Jeremy McMillion.

Jerm: "This isn't going to be a Disqualification. NOBODY is getting Disqualified. This match WILL go on. You just count the pin... or ask for the submission. That's your job."

The referee; Jizzmopper looks frustrated, but McMillion's the boss... he shrugs frustratingly. Jerm nods, smirking... before walking too the backstage area again.

Joey Kewl: "So Sef Kinsley is gonna be ALLOWED too help Dangerously here?"

Trunks: "TX are Jerm's boys, Joseph."

Dangerously is helped too his feet by Kinsley... and both men help drag Dante into the ring. They climb into the ring after him... and start circling Dante, who has since crawled into the centre. Kinsley grabs the Steel Chair from off he canvas, and tosses it too Dangerously. NED smirks, almost laughing as he looks down at Dante, whos risen too his knees. Dante spits down at Dangerously's feet, showing no fear here... Kinsley STOMPS down on Dante's back! Kinsley then grabs Dantes head, and drags him up too his feet.. Dante suddenly tries too fight him off!... but NED drives the edge of the chair into Dante's ribs!! Cutting short his fight. Kinsley holds Dante up, as Dangerously raises the chair over his head... the referee standing back absolutely helpless to do anything. More boo's fill the arena, as Johnny Legend appears from backstage.. and starts slowly walking down the ramp too help out Kinsley and NED...

Joey Kewl: "Brutal match he had earlier with Kinsley, Trunks."
