We hear soft, but epic strings playing slowly. The following quote wipes across the screen in the cracked gold Legacy script. "Greatness be nothing unless it be lasting." The seen fades in and we see old, wrinkled, weathered hands with greying hair resting on the maroon photo album with the quote in the same font on its front, and the Legacy Logo beneath it. The hands open the book and we see an early Legacy picture. From the first Shockwave: Snaps of Dexter and John Thomas standing eye to eye. He flips through a few pages and lands on action shots from: "Rise of the Elite: 3" John Page and Tim Jones battling. Greyson Blade and Marcus Marion standing inside the steel cage. He turns a few more pages and we see the first logo for "Strife." We see Moxley. Win and Anselm. Bushido Buntai. Jake Dominion. A few more pages as the music opening of the Smashing Pumpkins "Tonight Tonight" begins and we get to the pictures from, Advent Empire Creed hoisting Moxley up. Greyson Blade standing with the world title held up, Dan Stein and Stephen Rawlings standing across from him. The turn again. "Time is never time at all The pages are flipped quickly, us seeing Crazy Boy and Gigantus Aweseomo and finally a shot of X-Calibur as we end up on the pages labeled, BRICK BY BRICK "And our lives are forever changed Mirage battling Moreno. Stellar face to face with Eli Storm. Rawlings being awarded the World Title becomes Loco being awarded the World Title. "The more you change the less you feel The pages turn even quicker now the action on the pages almost having a stop motion type effect on our way to Destined for Greatness ('07) Crazy Boy battling Mirage and Justin Moreno. Issac Entragian slugging it out with Matt Towers. X-Calibur holding the Tao of Valor championship. "That life can change, that you're not stuck in vain A we get a flash from inside the empty arena for Legacy X. "Tonight" We are back to the photo album, The withered hands continuing their trek down memory lane. "And you know you're never sure Cronos Diamante, Ray Willmott, Mike Dexter, Devastation. All shots leading up to, Elevated Tensions. "If you held yourself up to the light Dominion battling de Cardenas. Rawlings and Devastation. Turner and Black. Cronos and Issac. X and JT.

Allocca and X-Calibur. Rawlings, Iley, and Devastation. Greyson Blade, Issac Entragian, and Cronos Diamante. Domination and El Chupabra. Crash and Loco Martinez. Jake Dominion in a referee's shirt raising Crash's hand. "In the resolute urgency of now" Pages are flying by as we get to: Glimmer of Hope: X and Rawlings battle for the Hawkins Memorial. Davis and Shane exchanging blows. Greyson and Issac going going to No Limits to end one another. Domination battles El Chupacabra. And a flurry of action from the Co-Op Challenge. "And if you believe there's not a chance tonight" Another shot inside the empty Target Center. "Tonight, so bright" The pages turn again, lightning fast getting us to Destined for Greatness ('08) "Tonight" The music explodes and we see snapshots from Legacy's last pay per view. Crazy Boy and Eli battling in an elevator. The Tao of Valor belt being taken from teh Ultimate X by Adam Davis. Cronos leveling Gryffin. Loco getting dropped by John Thomas. Issac finally hoisting the No Limits title. Domination holding their belts after the grueling tag ladder match. And finally X-Calibur being awarded the World Championship. The pages turn to action leading us up to Legacy X. "We'll crucify the insincere tonight" Damien Black with a smirk. Issac Entragian holding his No Limits title, a forked tongue sticking out menacingly. "We'll make things right, we'll feel it all tonight" Crash and Blade battling next to A snap of Del Carver standing in a Legacy ring. "We'll find a way to offer up the night, tonight" Justin Moreno, rage etched on his face, in ring with Derek Shane looking out at Allison Moreno covered in powder. "The indescribable moments of your life tonight" Cronos slamming Rawlings food down onto the ground. Loco and X-Calibur eye to eye. "The impossible is possible tonight" Crazy Boy after being dropped by John Thomas. Devastation and Adam Davis exchanging a knowing smirk "Believe in me as I believe in you, tonight" One more shot of the empty Target Center a lone spotlight falling from the rafters into the ring. And as the music fades out. The weathered hands flip through a few dozen yet to be filled pages of the photo album before closing the book, and in the back in the same script it reads: "What will YOUR Legacy be?"
The show opens on a live shot of Alan Ducard, Bryan Harris and Jimmy Yates sitting behind the announce table at ringside area. Behind them are the excited fans in the Target Center, cheering and waiting for things to get started. Alan Ducard: Good evening everyone and welcome to Minneapolis, Minnesota. I'm your host for the evening, Alan Ducard, alongside my fellow co-hosts Jimmy Yates and Bryan Harris. . Jimmy Yates: Tonight's event marks LEGACY's tenth pay per view event, and given the matches set to take place in the next few hours, I'm sure it's going to be a great one. Bryan Harris: Usually at this point we do a little hype talking about the upcoming matches for the evening, but this is pay per view, and if you're watching right now, more than likely you're not going to be changing the channel. All you have to know is that the matches we've got set up, none of them are "bathroom break" or "beer run" type of matches. You want a beer? Call that pizza place around the corner and get them to deliver. Live in a state where they can't do that? Start by calling your girlfriend or fiance or wife or sister and have them get you a cold beverage, then tomorrow, start looking for a new place to live. Gotta take a piss? Use the window or an empty water bottle or somethin, just don't get up while the guys are doing their thing in the ring, 'cause chances are you'll miss something that people will be talking about tomorrow and you'll feel like an idiot. Alan Ducard: That's one way to put it I suppose. Jimmy Yates: At the heart of what Bryan just said... he's got a point. I'm expecting tonight's action to be some of the best we've seen here in LEGACY, and I won't be getting up to go anywhere, not unless our announce table gets broken again tonight like it did three or four times back at the last pay per view.
The broadcast footage swings over to ringside area where Josephina Colbert is standing in the ring. The lights begin to dim and the excitement level grows. Josephina Colbert: Our opening contest is set for one fall and will be contested under No Limits rules! The excitement level continues to grow, and so after a moment, Josephina Colbert continues. Josephina Colbert: Introducing first… The regular house lights dim and the arena is flooded with blue lights as the jazzy remix of Filter’s “Hey Man Nice Shot” hits the PA. The crowd begins to boo as they await for John Thomas, but as the song plays for a moment, the fans begin to realize that nothing is happening. They quiet down in their booing, not really sure what is going on. Finally, the crowd begins to boo as John Thomas appears, wearing his black ring tights with blue accents, including a blue and white horseshoe on the side. The blue and white hooded entrance vest is pulled up and covers his eyes. Alan Ducard: John Thomas sporting a new pair of ring gear pants and a slight variation on the entrance attire he typically wears to big matches… Bryan Harris: Seriously? A guy of John Thomas’ caliber is stepping through the curtain, and that’s what you start talking about? Can we please talk about his accomplishments or just SOMETHING other than what he’s wearing?! Jimmy Yates: Wait… YOU’RE ABOUT TO GET YOUR WISH!!! The crowd begins to cheer as they see watch John fall to the steel entrance way, and cheer even LOUDER as Crazy Boy appears behind John Thomas. John Thomas stumbles to his feet, but is quickly kicked down and towards the ring by Crazy Boy. Again, John tries to scramble to his feet, but he eats a forearm to the back of the head by Crazy Boy, which causes John to stumble a few feet forwards, falling off the end of the entrance walkway near the ringside area. Bryan Harris: You gotta be kidding me!!! Jimmy Yates: Oh no, all of this is perfectly legal, and it’s about time Crazy Boy got his hands on John Thomas! After hopping off the walkway to follow his opponent, CB lifts JT up off the arena floor and slams his head into the steel guard rail, much the to crowd approval. He then Irish Whips John Thomas into the opposite guard rail, again, much to the crowd approval. Fudrucker, meanwhile, has given up on this being a straight forward, in the ring match, what with it being No Limits, and calls for the bell! Bryan Harris: I know the end of the year awards are coming up next month… I know who I’m voting for in the “Worst Referee of the Year Award”. Alan Ducard: I’ve yet to be privy to a list, but I don’t believe that’s going to be a category. Jimmy Yates: Yeah, probably not, and also, there’s nothing wrong with what Jacob Fudrucker is doing. This is all legal. CrazyBoy gives John a few knees to the stomach before whipping him towards the ring apron. Thomas turns and hit’s the ring apron back first. Before he can recover, CB feeds Thomas a MEAN forearm shot to the face. Thomas’s knees go weak, and he falls forward. CB grabs him and tosses him under the bottom rope. Tyrone lifts the apron up and digs under the ropes for something. Meanwhile in the ring, John Thomas stirs, and begins to get to his feet. CB does not see this as he is digging for a weapon. Alan Ducard: Given what all we’ve seen from Crazy Boy inside and outside of the ring, Tyrone Smith’s choice of weapons could be… unique, so I can’t wait to see what he’s going to pull from underneath the ring. Bryan Harris: I’m scared, to be quite honest! Jimmy Yates: And as a John Thomas supporter, you should be! Thomas is up to his feet, and when he sees CB not looking, he walks to the other end of the ring. CB comes up with a chair, but he sees John Thomas a little too late, and he EATS a face full of chair, via having it kicked into his face via baseball slide dropkick. CB goes down hard, and John Thomas climbs out of the ring. Bryan Harris: That-a-boy, JTizzle!! Jimmy Yates: “JTizzle”? Bryan Harris: Yeah, you know, that’s how the cool people talk. Jimmy Yates: Which is why I’m so surprised to hear you talking that way. John Thomas takes a moment to relax before going back on the attack, lifting CB up and slamming his head into the ring apron. He then kicks CB in the stomach and hit’s a snap suplex on the floor! CB clutches his back in pain, and Thomas gives CB no time to recover, as he stands up and PLANTS a kick to CB’s back! CB rolls onto his hands and knees, grimacing. Thomas flattens him out with a stomp to the back. Alan Ducard: John Thomas starting to get brutal there with his attack on the floor, and that baseball slide kicking the chair into Crazy Boy’s head… that did quite its job. Thomas then changes focus, launching well placed stomps to the shoulder of CB. Fudrucker makes a plea for CB and JT to get back in the ring, but there is little else he can do, considering the rules. CB tries to crawl away, but it is no use, as John Thomas is relentless. He lands a few more stomps to the shoulder before grabbing CB’s left arm, stepping over CB’s body with one foot, and placing the other foot on CB’s back. Keeping CB on his stomach, John pulls up and over on CB’s arm, as if he is attempting to have CB’s left hand touch his right hand. Bryan Harris: Classic John Thomas here, going at that shoulder… CB cries out, but there is little he can do. Fudrucker goes to the outside and gets down on his hands and knees, asking CB if he quits. CB shouts “hell no!” and continues to fight on. John Thomas, however, releases the hold, but he holds onto the arm and begins to PLANT kicks to the shoulder and upper portion of the arm! The crowd begins to boo heavily, but John ignores, again stepping over and reapplying the hold! Alan Ducard: One would have to wonder what type of plans John Thomas has to attack CB’s shoulder, given the rules of this match. Again, Fudrucker checks for a submission, but John Thomas again steps back over. This time, he picks CB back up, keeping him at a distance, still holding the arm. While CB is on his knees, JT plants a few HARD kicks to the shoulder, and then begins to launch downward elbows on the shoulder. CB takes a few shots at JT, but he seems unable to land any of them. JT twists CB’s arm and lifts him up. He plants a kick to the stomach of CB and walks him over to the ring post. JT wraps CB’s arm around the ring post and looks to be positioned to do some serious damage, but at the last second, CB lets out a primal scream and pulls JT forward, causing JT to slam, face first, into the ring post! Jimmy Yates: Nice block by Crazy Boy, and John eats steel!! CB is up first, shaking his arm. JT is up shortly after. Both men slide into the ring and are up to their feet at the same time. CB throws a hard right at JT! JT stumbles back, but launches a hard kick to the stomach! CB now stumbles back, but this time it’s his turn to launch forward, diving down and spearing JT to the mat! CB begins to pummel JT with right hands, avoiding the use of his left hand. With each punch, the fans pop loudly! Bryan Harris: Yeah, that’s great and all, he can throw punches, but only with one arm! John’s strategy is already working! Though he has no reason to, CB gets off of John. He leaps up HIGH and drops a leg across JT’s throat! He then pulls JT to the center of the ring and hit’s a MEAN standing moonsault! Once again, CB is up, and this time, he leaps forward and nails a senton splash! Jimmy Yates: He didn’t need to use any hands in that series of moves! This time, CB turns over and attempts a cover, which the fans count along. Alan Ducard: Crazy Boy for the attempt…. ONE! <ONE!> TW- John Thomas is out before two. CB looks as though this was an expected outcome and doesn’t stop to argue. He simply lifts JT to his feet and plants a kick to the stomach. CB then nails a shot to the throat and then lifts John onto his shoulders into a fireman’s carry before lifting a hand and signaling to the crowd in a tornado motion, causing the fans to go crazy! Crowd: CRAZY AIRLINES! Jimmy Yates: YYYYYES!!!! CB begins to spin, but JT uses the momentum to shift out, hooks the head, and drops CB with a DDT! Most fans boo, but you can barely pick up one fan, near the front and near a microphone, screaming out “FLIGHT CANCELLED!” Bryan Harris: HA HA!!! Not a chance, Yates!! This is what makes John Thomas so great! He had that move scouted absolutely perfectly! Both men work their way back up to their feet and virtually the same time. CB is the first to charge, attempting a clothesline with his left arm. JT ducks under, catches the arm, and pulls it back, wrenching in a tight hammerlock! Using his other arm, JT wraps an arm around CB’s throat and locks on a sleeper. He then pulls CB to the ground and applies a body scissors! CB attempts to hit JT with an elbow, but he can’t seem to reach his arm back in the grounded position. JT simply tightens his grip and wrenches harder on CB’s arm! Alan Ducard: This is a modified mixed martial arts move, obviously rooted in jiu jitsu, so you would have to think that it’s times like these where his friendship with Ron Bailey has paid off. Bryan Harris: John Thomas is an absolute STUDENT of the game, and so I’m not surprised to see him pull something like this out of his box of tricks. Fudrucker checks on CB, but CB emphatically says he is not done. CB rolls onto his stomach, which doesn’t seem to help anything, at first. However, he gets his knees up, and then lifts up with one arm, before leaping forward and driving JT’s head into the mat. JT releases the hold and is up quickly, planting a STIFF boot to the left shoulder of CB. Alan Ducard: I don’t believe John appreciated that too much. Bryan Harris: Not that Crazy Boy ever thinks about strategy, but for the rest of the match, he ought to consider trying not to make John any madder than he already is. John lifts Crazy Boy up to his feet and wrenches in on the arm. He then makes his way to the corner and starts to climb up the turnbuckles. The crowd begins booing, knowing what is coming. Alan Ducard: We’re about to see the New School, and this could to irreparable damage if he hits it correctly. John balances himself on the ropes and starts walking towards the mid-point along the length of the ring, but suddenly Crazy Boy comes to life and shoves Thomas, causing him to lose his balance and rack himself on the top rope! Jimmy Yates: Anastasia’s not going to like that! JT stays in position, clutching himself, long enough for CB to lift himself up onto the top rope and nail a HARD springboard Enziguiri to the face of John Thomas, who then spills out of the ring, much to the approval of the LEGACY fans!! Alan Ducard: Great thinking by Crazy Boy, and that could very well change this match for good. CB is now up to his feet, and he sees that JT is still on the ground, clutching both his head and his groin. CB goes to the other side of the ring and exits, going for the chair he got early in the match. CB slides back into the ring and waits for John Thomas to get up. It takes JT a moment, but finally, he is up. While his back is turned, CB springs into action, running forward and leaping OVER the top rope, flying forward with a suicide plancha, with chair across his body! CB and the chair COLLIDE into the back of John Thomas, much to the crowd’s approval! Crowd: HOLY SH*T! HOLY SH*T! Jimmy Yates: Crazy Boy risking life and limb with an INSANE move, and it pays off!! CB clutches his chest, clearly taking some damage from that too. JT, on the other hand, hardly moves at all. CB is the first one up, and JT hasn’t even begun to stir. CB crawls his way over to Thomas, pushes him onto his back, and pins! The crowd once again counts along! ONE! <ONE!> TWO! <TWO!> THR-SHOULDER UP! Crowd: BOOO! Bryan Harris: That’s why they call John Thomas “The Durable One”! CB looks a little frustrated by this. He gets up and drops a few stomps on JT, just to keep him down. Crazy Boy then turns, lifts the apron up, and begins to dig under the ring again. This time, he pulls out a table, much to the approval of the crowd. Jimmy Yates: That’s twice Crazy Boy has surprised me with his weapon selection. Bryan Harris: What were you expecting, a rubber chicken?! A Rubix Cube? Not-So-Fuzzy Dice? Alan Ducard: Do what? As Crazy Boy gets the table completely out from underneath the ring, John Thomas has begun to stir, and he’s using the guard railing to get to his feet. CB sees this and places a forearm to the back of Thomas. Crazy Boy sets the table up and then goes back to John Thomas, placing a few stomps before lifting him back up. He grabs Thomas by the hair and pulls him to the table. He places a few more punches to JT before throwing him onto the table. JT seems completely out, so CB gets back in the ring and climbs to the top turnbuckle. The fans are going crazy at this point, and CB shouts out to all of them “CRAZY SPIN!” Sure enough, he leaps off, 450 spin, flashbulbs and cameras go off… AND JOHN THOMAS MOVES! CB LANDS KNEES FIRST ON THE TABLE AND CRASHES THROUGH! Crazy Boy lays on the outside of the ring, clutching his knees and trying out in pain. John Thomas, meanwhile, is shaking the cobwebs and getting to his feet, using the ring apron as support. Upon getting up, JT lifts CB up, grabs ahold of the left arm, and drives an elbow down on the left shoulder of Crazy Boy. And again! And again! A kick to the knees! Elbow to the shoulder! Kick to the knees! Elbow to the shoulder! And, finally, JT slams CB’s head into the ring apron. Alan Ducard: Crazy Boy might be fortunate to ever get back up. JT rolls CB in the ring, grabs the chair that was slammed into him earlier, and goes into the ring with it. CB tries to work his way up, but JT slams him in the back with the steel chair! JT then places the edge of the chair on Crazy Boy’s shoulder and stops on the top! CB convulses on the ground in pain, clutching his shoulder. Jimmy Yates: I think you might be right, Alan. Crazy Boy is in a VERY bad way here. John Thomas lifts Crazy Boy up. He launches another kick to the knees, knocking CB to his knees. He then plants another elbow on CB’s left shoulder before jumping around behind CB and locking in the chicken wing! JT tries to apply the crossface to complete the move, but CB blocks it with this right hand! Alan Ducard: He has one good arm left, and he’s using it! JT continues to attempt the crossface, but CB is not allowing it, despite the pain that the chicken wing is causing him. JT continues to try the crossface to finish his finisher, but he becomes frustrated, and in a moment of frustration, CB finds the room to get his arm out of harm’s way. JT loses his balance as a result, but charges forward…and EATS a blind back elbow to the face! CB turns around and catches JT with a kick to the stomach. He looks on like he’s going for a suplex. He lifts up, using his right arm. You can see his left shoulder spasming from the pain. Yet, still, CB begins to spin around. He drops! Bryan Harris: I can’t believe it!! CRAZY SLAM! ONTO THE CHAIR! CB GOES FOR THE PIN! The crowd is going insane as they count along! ONE! <ONE!> TWO!<TWO!> THREE!<THREE!> Jacob Fudrucker gets to his knees and points to the time keeper’s table, happily signaling for the bell. Josephina Colbert: Here is your winner by pinfall… Crrrrrrazyyy…. BOY!!!! Somehow, Crazy Boy pulls himself up off the mat and then falls back down to his knees, throwing his arms up in victory, his eyes clenched tight. Alan Ducard: For the second pay per view event in a row, Crazy Boy gets a victory in the opening contest of the night! Jimmy Yates: And what a hard-fought victory both of those matches were. If I were in charge of setting up title matches, I’d put Crazy Boy in line to fight whoever walks out of tonight’s No Limits Title Match with the gold. Bryan Harris: Don’t go calling Crazy Boy a champion just yet. To me, John Thomas looked distracted out there tonight, and if these two guys fought nine more times, I’m betting you that John would win at least 8 of them. Alan Ducard: That’s a very tall prediction that I find very hard to believe… Jimmy Yates: Yeah, and furthermore, I don’t think John looked distracted. Bryan Harris: Well Big Al, your wagering skills are trifling,
and Jimbo, you couldn’t analyze a fight between Bruce Lee and
a one-legged man. FURTHERMORE, I don’t want to talk about this
anymore.
Shot of the LEGACY crew eating in the catering area. The camera pans
to the left and we see Herbert Moxley walking in the distance, waving
his plastic lightsaber. The camera pans right, and the crowd explodes
as they see The Kumquat Kid walking, hands in his pockets, singing... Suddenly he stops and looks forward, his eyes wide, a beaming smile on his face. The camera pans to see Moxley with the same goofy expression on his face. KK: Herbert J. Moxley, NO WAY!!! Turning his head slightly to the side, Moxley does a quick analysis of the man before him. Moxley: Hmm, The force is strong with this one. Moxley: You're excited about shaking MY hand? Moxley: I am flattered... A hero from the other side
of this world knowning who I am would be enough. But this? The stopped
making those buttons about the same time Ecto Cooler was taken off the
market... Well, In turn, Mr Kumquat, I assure you I am proud of your
good deeds, although I have not the musical button to show for it. Ryan digs a bright orange button out of his pocket and pins it on Moxley. He pushes the button and it plays his theme music. KK: Gotta love that song. Moxley laughs, taking strange pleasure in poking fun at Greyson Blade. Moxley: I think his secret is... he sold his soul
to himself. But he's not all that bad, he's an avid bird watcher I hear. Moxley: A word to the wise. That is NOT crumb cake
and those are NOT crumbs. Herb shrugs and smiles. Herb's eyes get huge. Ryan and Moxley ponder. Alan Ducard: Well that was sure interesting. Bryan Harris: Yeah, if you find it interesting that LEGACY's roster is strong enough to support more than one dork at a time. Jimmy Yates: You may not be familiar with The Kumquat Kid, but if he's actually here to be part of the LEGACY roster, he might just impress you yet. Bryan Harris: That guy? Don't bet on it.
Alan Ducard: A rivalry that has spread over the last few months. Since Anarchy have "officially" joined Legacy, they have crossed paths with El Chupacabra numerous times. Jimmy Yates: Most recently we saw the boys of Anarchy come out and SAVE El Chupacabra's manager, Hannah Perez from Diego de Cardenas. Bryan Harris: Anarchy just don't know when to keep out of business that isn't THEIRS. They poked their noses into a Diego - Crazy Boy match they had no right being involved in! Jimmy Yates: El Chupacabra went out of their way to try to screw Tyrone Smith, and Anarchy had the good sense to stand up to them. Same for what happened with Hannah Perez! After months of tensions tonight Anarchy sets out to dish out some come upance to Diego and Hector. Bryan Harris: Or, El Chupacabra gets to lance the annoying boil that is Anarchy always rearing its ugly puss filled head at the most inopportune time! Alan Ducard: Ick. Disgusting visual, Bryan, but a point well made. Who will walk out of Legacy X, "one up" on their foe? The lights in the arena dim slightly and a spotlight shines down on Josephina Colbert who is standing in the middle of the ring. She smiles as men in various portions of the crowd whistle at her, and then she does her job. Josephina Colbert: Our next match is a tag team contest set for one fall. Introducing first... Green and red strobes flash all over the place as Santana's classic "Oye Como Va" starts up over the speakers. Fully aware of who's coming through the curtain, the booing rolls in immediately. Josephina Colbert: Representing the Nation of Mexico... they are Hector Rodrrrriguez... Diego DE Cardenas... El Chuuuuuuuuuu-pa-cabra!!!! The booing continues to fight the music for volume level as Hector Rodriguez steps through the curtain, wearing black leather pants and the signature El Chupacabra shirt, slit completely from the armpits downwards. Bryan Harris: There's a third of the squad... Jimmy Yates: Whoa, hold up, a THIRD? When did El Chupacabra get another member? Bryan Harris: Uh, they've had three members for a while, Jimbo... Alan Ducard: I think what Jimmy is thinking is that without Hannah Perez... Bryan Harris: Whoa, hold up, Big Al. Hannah Perez might've gotten hot and bothered, but she'll be out here tonight. Wearing a black leather poncho and a matching black leather sombrero, Diego de Cardenas struts out of the back, wearing new tan board shorts with black accents. The smile on his face is huge, and it's the only part of his face you can see from underneath his hat. Waiting atop the ramp for a moment, the duo then make their way down to the ring. Jimmy Yates: There's your answer Bryan. TWO members. Alan Ducard: Maybe Hannah will join them before the match is over, maybe she won't, but it looks pretty clear that she's not joining them for their entrance, and that's the first time we've seen that happen in quite some time. Bryan Harris: She'll show up when she's needed. She knows what's good for her. She knows what pays the bills. As the duo get into the ring, Josephina Colbert backs up and lets them reach the far corners. As the music fades under, she continues her introductions. Alan Ducard: No love for El Chupacabra. Josephina Colbert: And their Opponents... From Hackensack New Jersey. T.Rex! Arch Angel! They are.... ANARCHY!!!!!!! Whitesnake's "Hit and Run" blasts through the Target Center and we see a giant T.Rex with Angel's wings on the Legacy-Tron. The crowd roars. Bryan Harris: What the HELL is that?! Jimmy Yates: I'd call that the picture of Anarchy. A winged T.Rex would wreak all kinds of havoc! T.Rex and Arch Angel burst through the curtain which elicits another pop from the crowd. Each one has a t-shirt with the winged T.Rex on it. Alan Ducard: Anarchy sporting some new duds. They stomp to the ring and we get a shot of the back of the shirt which says 'POOPED YOUR PANTS' the "A" in pants the Anarchy symbol. Bryan Harris: That should read "We're about to poop our pants". Jimmy Yates: Stop. Bryan Harris: Its a well known well documented medical fact that men of their advanced ages experience incontinence. Angel and Rex go up the ring steps and take off their new t-shirts and launch them into the crowd. A small fracas breaking out in the two landing zones. Referee Don Bower brings the four men to the center of the ring and talks to them. They each nod, but do not take their eyes off one another. The referee sends them back to their corners. Arch Angel and Hector staying in the ring to start. The two men start in towards one another. Lock up. Arch Angel backs Hector up into the ropes and whips him across. Hector bounces off the ropes and comes back and is leveled by a running clothesline. Angel reaches down and scoops Hector up. Drops him down hard with a bodyslam. He follows that up with an elbow drop, and makes an early cover. One-NO! Hector out easily at one. Angel up meets Hector with a knife edged chop. The crowd "WHOOOOOO's" along with the chop. Bryan Harris: I hate a "Whoooo" crowd. Alan Ducard: I believe almost all wrestling crowds, "Whooo" Bryan. Bryan Harris: Safe to deduce I hate ALL wrestling crowds then, eh, AL? Angel winds up and delivers another chop with the requisite crowd reaction and then delivers a sternum rattling overhand slap to the chest of Hector that drops him to a knee. Angel takes a few steps back and runs in nailing a knee lift to the temple of Hector Rodriguez. Hector slumps to the mat as the crowd applauds. Angel drops to make a lateral press. One... Two.. NO! Hector out just after two. Jimmy Yates: Wearing him down. Wearing him down. Bryan Harris: Like you do with your dates, right Yates? Angel gets back up, bringing Hector with him. He pulls him in close, into a standing side headlock . Hector takes a few steps, and pushes Angel away, Angel off the ropes, and Hector drops down. Angel runs over him. Hector is up quickly and takes a few steps, and as Arch Angel bounces off the ropes he's met with a knee to the gut. Angel doubles over. Hector grabs him in side headlock of his own, and takes off driving Angel down to the mat face first with a bulldog. He shoots a half nelson, getting Angel over, and makes a cover. One.... Two.. NO! Alan Ducard: Fast and furious to start. These two teams are wasting no time getting at it here tonight. Jimmy Yates: Thank god for that... I'm double Parked. A few moments of silence at the broadcast booth before we hear an audibly annoyed sigh, from who we can assume is Bryan Harris. Hector gets up and drops a knee across Angel's chest. He keeps it there for a cocky cover. One- Angel kicks out. Hector drops another knee and Diego starts jumping up and down on the ring apron and begins to step into the ring. Don Bower goes to head him off at the pass, and Hector slides his shin up to Arch Angel's throat and begins choking him. The crowd roars its disproval. Angels legs kick and twitch under the choking weight. Eventually Angel gets both hands up to Hector's legs and throws him off. Hector drops down and makes another cover. Diego suddenly steps out and points out for the ref to go make his count. One... Two... ThNO! Angel shoulders out. Diego de Cardenas: DO YOUR JOB REF! Hector brings Angel up to his feet and whips him hard into the El Chupacabra corner. He runs in with a hard splash that rocks Arch Angel. He takes two steps back. Charges in again with a hard splash. He reaches up and tags in Diego, who sling shots himself over the top rope. Diego turns and begins to snap off kick after kick into Arch Angel's midsection. After a half dozen kicks, Diego whips Angel off the ropes and nearly beheads him with a beautiful spinning heel kick. He scrambles for the cover. One... Two... THR-NO! Arch ANgel kicks out. Diego slaps the mat. He looks at the referee, clearly annoyed. He bounces off the ropes and hits a running senton across Angel's ribs. He then goes to bring Arch Angel to his feet. He goes to whip the bigger man off the ropes, but Angel stops himself. Diego goes to try the whip again. Angel stops it again. Angel pulls Diego in towards him and levels him with a short armed clothesline. Arch ANgel falls to a knee. The crowd urging him to make the tag to T.Rex who is bouncing on the outside desperate for a tag. Angel gets up, clutching his ribs and starts to make his way to his corner. He is a few steps from making a tag when he is stopped by a diving Diego, who dove and reached out grabbing Arch Angel's ankle. Angel turns, and eyeballs Diego who is holding on for dear life. Angel looks down at the much smaller man and shrugs. He takes another step, dragging Diego. The crowd roars. Diego looks shocked as Angel takes two more steps to his corner, pulling him with him. He reaches out and tags T.Rex. The crowd explodes as T.Rex steps through the ropes. Diego begs off. Looking up at the two. He holds his hands up innocently. The members of Anarchy smirk towards one another and both bring their boots up and drive the bottoms into Diego's forehead. Bryan Harris: Illegal doubleteaming! T.Rex brings Diego up and bearhugs him. He takes two steps towards the center of the ring, and lifts de Cardenas and spins in a side belly to belly suplex. He comes crashing down on Diego. He hooks a leg. One... Two... Th-NOPE! T.Rex gets back up and drags Diego with him. He reaches and tags in Arch Angel. Angel steps in over the top rope. T.Rex brings Diego into side russian leg sweep position. Arch Angel bounces off the ropes, and nails a big boot to Diego's grill as T.Rex hits the side russian leg sweep. Alan Ducard: Certainly that's it! T.Rex drops to make the cover. Angel looks on somewhere between amused, and stunned. The referee also just stares at T.Rex and mouths "you're not the legal man". T.Rex: D'oh. My bad. Bryan Harris: Idiot. Does he have to live as if he HAD the brain power of an actual T.Rex? Rex rolls off Diego. Angel drops down to make the cover. One... Two... Th-NO! Diego kicks out again. Angel brings Diego up. He whips him off the ropes and lifts his leg for a big boot, but Diego slides under. Diego pops up and drops kicks Arch Angel in the back which sends him into the ropes, where he's met with a wicked right hand from Hector that stuns him. Diego takes this opportunity to roll him up taking a fist full of his tights. One... Two... THREE-NO! Alan Ducard: A near fall for the former champs. Jimmy Yates: I can't help but wonder where you indignation is over THAT bit of cheating, Bry? Diego gets up quickly and leaps making a tag to Hector. As Angel gets to his feet he's knocked down with a running clothesline. He gets up and quickly tags Diego back in who leaps to the top rope. Hector goes up with him, and sets up for a superplex. Alan Ducard: What in the... Hector goes to superplex Diego onto Arch Angel, and nails it! Diego ends up doing a modified senton across Angel's ribs. Diego clutching at his own back struggles to make the cover... One... Two Thre-NO! Angel just gets a shoulder out. Alan Ducard: Wow. A fantastic maneuver, and I'm amazed this one isn't over. And listen to this crowd get into it- rooting the boys from Anarchy on. Crowd: An-Ar-CHY! An-AR-CHY! AN-AR-CHY! Diego again tries a quick cover. One... Two... Th-NO! Jimmy Yates: Has that EVER worked? Diego is back up and drives a few stomps into Arch Angel's ribcage. He goes back to the corner and leaps to the middle rope. He jumps looking for a leg drop, but Arch Angel rolls out of the way. Diego clutches at his tail bone as Arch Angel recuperates. The crowd jumps to their feet feeling the momentum swinging. They clap, stomp, hoot, holler, as both Arch Angel and Diego begin to inch towards their respective corners. Diego lunges and makes the tag: Crowd: BOOOOOO! Arch Angel crawls and reaches up tagging in T.Rex. Crowd: YAAAAAYYYY!!! Rex and Hector meet in the center of the ring. Hector rocks Rex with a right hand. Rex answers with a left. Hector goes for another right, but Rex blocks it, and levels Hector with a violent headbutt. Bryan Harris: First time his head has been USEFUL in 87 years of existence. T.Rex gets Hector up, nails another headbutt. Whips him off the rope and takes him down with a clubbing forearm to the head, that staggers Hector back into the ropes. T.Rex moves in and picks Hector up and hot shots him across the top rope. He follows that up with a side suplex, and from behind we hear a murmur of mixed reaction from the crowd. Alan Ducard: Now, what are HER intentions, here tonight? Bryan Harris: I think we're fixin' to find out. We turn to the entranceway and we see Hannah Perez stroling, seductively, towards the ring. She blows kisses to a few fans. In the ring T.Rex makes a cover... One... Two... Th-NOPE! Hector kicks out. Hannah positions herself near the El Chupacabra corner. Diego noticing her turns his attentions away from the match. The referee notices this too and walks over to give Hannah a warning about keeping out of the action. With his back turned, as T.Rex goes to bring Hector to a vertical base, Hector nails T.Rex with a low blow. T.Rex Crumples to the mat. Hector struggles to his feet. The crowd boos angrily. Bryan Harris: Hannah's paying off already! Diego actually gets down off the apron and starts to verbally berate Hannah. She smiles coyly ignoring him. Behind them Diego has gotten to his feet, and struggled towards his corner for the tag. Only to find his partner and manager arguing on the outside. As he's about protest he is leveled from behind by T.Rex. Rex spins Hector around and plants him with a DDT. He then gets up still nursing the pain from that crotchel attack and points at Diego. T.Rex: Touch her? And you die! He then whips Hector harshly into his corner. He charges in and crushes him with a running splash. He tags in Arch ANgel who steps in quickly. Boots Hector in the gut, and hooks him for the "Weight of the Halo" - pedigree. T.Rex jumps to the middle rope looking for his vader bomb styled splash, "Fossil Fuel". Angel nods to T.Rex and launches with his double underhook piledriver while T.Rex leaps back with his splash. Alan Ducard: The Anne Archery! Angel rolls Hector over, while T.Rex quickly slides out of the ring and goes over and stands between Hannah and Diego, while the referee counts: One... Two... THREE!!! The bell rings and Diego whirls around wondering what the hell just happened, as Hannah smirks, and heads to the back. Josephina Colbert: Your winners of this match... T.Rex... Arch Angel... ANARACHY!!!!! "Hit and Run" hits the PA system as T.Rex slides into the ring to have his hand raised by the referee. Hector rolls out of the ring and joins Diego, both men wondering what just happened. Alan Ducard: Well Hannah Perez certainly played a factor in the finish of this match. Was it the factor SHE or EL Chupacabra wanted? In the coming weeks I'm sure we'll find out. But right now Anarchy have thwarted El Chupacabra and moved up another rung inside the ranks in Legacy's Tag Team Division. Bryan Harris: Whether Hannah Perez meant to help ANARCHY or not, she's going to find out sooner or later that her involvement here tonight was a mistake, and quite frankly it makes me sick to even think that some people are going to consider ANARCHY higher on the ladder in the tag team division than El Chupacabra just because of this match. Jimmy Yates: I don't see any reason to think otherwise, because to me, this was a good win for T.Rex and Arch Angel, who keep getting better as the months pass despite their age. Alan Ducard: Much like fine wine, I should say. Bryan Harris: I didn't know they made wine from rotten grapes.
Chris Turner is dressed in his Air Awesomo t-shirt and some black jeas as he is walking through the halls a little on edge, and ALOT angry. He is looking behind every door, and in every dark corner. Finally he sees Issac Entragian walking through the halls holding a bottle of fiji water. Turner grins and runs over to him. Chris Turner: HEY ISSAC! I NEED TO TALK TO YOU! Entragian stops in his tracks, with Elizabeth Gaunt at his side. She makes some whispered comment to the albino like "Ew it's a homeless person", Issac snickers and motions for her to go on ahead, leaving him to take care of this. He walks straight up to Turner, one hand moving down to his hip where he undoes the strap holding "The Slayer" in its sheath. His eyes are cold, his expression even colder. Issac Entragian: What in the hell do YOU want, giggles? You wanna talk, then talk, but if you try to scream in my face like you do with Black, I will make it my personal goal to dislocate your jaw. He taps a few pale fingers against "The Slayer" to hammer this point home. Chris Turner: I was letting you know that I am here to help... I'll be damned if I let Damien Black win that title... So PLEASE! Use me. Let me help you win! Entragian actually chuckles, a dry sound emanating from his huge chest. A smile finds its way across his mouth, the teeth glimmering like little white knives. Entragian: Turner, I wouldn't even USE you to clean the wax out of my ears. You're a joke. Not only do I not want your help, but if you DO interfere in my NL match with Damien, I'll beat you bloody. I hope you haven't forgotten how many boots I slammed into your ugly mug back when you still hid behind the Awesomo mask. I don't need any help in destroying The Savior of Sadism; you've already done enough in breaking the man's spirit with your presence alone. Issac starts to turn away, an expression of distaste in his eyes as he looks at Turner. Entragian: You should be ashamed for what you've done to Damien Black, and it's up to ME to fix what you have broken. So my answer is NO, giggles. Now if you'll excuse me, I have better things to do with my time than having pointless conversations with village idiots. Go pop Laura's cherry or something, I don't care what you do, as long as you get the hell away from me. Issac grants Chris a sarcastic smirk, and then walks onward down the
hall, one hand hovering near "The Slayer" just in case Turner
decides to get frisky. Once Issac is out of sight, Chris kicks the wall. Chris Turner: I don't care what he says.... I WILL
stop Black from winning. And I will do it MY way!
Cronos is standing in front of a Pepsi machine, making his usual choice of: water. He presses the button and nothing comes out. The sound of it vending is heard but the liquid beverage is nowhere to be seen. Cronos Diamante: You cock sucking son of a bitch! Stealing my money! That’s it. Cronos begins punching and kicking the machine, grabbing and pushing at it as he hopes the Dasani will fall out. Thus far it’s not working out how he’d hope so he just begins kicking it over and over again. At that moment, Crazy Boy is walking down the hallway, still recovering from his brutal encounter with John Thomas earlier in the show. As he turns the corner of the hallway and approaches the lobby, he can hear some banging and shouting in the distance. Tyrone, wondering what is going on, runs to the lobby and looks around. He notices Cronos kicking and shouting at the Pepsi machine as Crazy Boy smiles and walks up to the machine, watching as Cronos stops what he is doing and takes a step back, Crazy Boy reaching under and lifts the bottom flap to the machine, the bottle of water popping out. Tyrone reaches in and grabs the bottle of water, handing it to Cronos. Crazy Boy: Happens all the time. This machine right here is a little tricky. Cronos snatches it from Crazy Boy and mutters a “thank you” and turns around, walking away. Cronos stops mid-stride and turns to Crazy Boy. Cronos Diamante: Walk and talk? Crazy Boy shrugs his shoulders and walks toward Cronos, thinking about what Cronos would want to say to him. Although he did team up with him at the Co-Op Challenge, he isn't exactly buddy-buddy with him. He starts walking next to Cronos, still thinking about what Cronos has to say. Crazy Boy: What's up? Um... you aren't going to kill me, are you? Cronos cranes his neck to look Crazy Boy in the eyes. Cronos Diamante: Do you want me to? Cronos cackles. Crazy Boy shakes his head furiously and continues to walk, a little scared, but yet mesmerized at the being next to him. Crazy Boy: No, I would rather live, thank you. Crazy Boy continues to walk, still a little deep in thought. Cronos notices this and chooses to inquire. Cronos Diamante: What's on your mind, Tyrone? You picked up an impressive win over John Thomas earlier. You can't be having too big of problems, can you? Crazy Boy smiles a little bit and nods his head. Crazy Boy: So you actually watched the match. That has to be my biggest win of my career. The glass ceiling that has alluded me for so long is finally starting to crack. I am happy about that, without a doubt. But I'm thinking about this. What do you want from me? Surely someone with your status don't need my help for anything. I'm sure any problems you have you can handle yourself. Or is there something up your sleeve that I am missing here? Cronos stops dead. Cronos Diamante: Of course I watched. I'll tell you a little secret, Tyrone. I watch almost all of the matches that go on out there. Now I have say it's mostly the one's I have either a vested interest in or somebody whose back I'm watching. Cronos offers a grin at him as if to say, "figure out which one you are." Cronos Diamante: And just what kind of status do you think I hold here in Legacy, Tyrone? Cronos speaks in a stern voice, although a smirk accompanies his question. Cronos isn't exactly acting insane but he's not acting sane either. Crazy Boy sits there, pondering at what Cronos just said, as a smug grin appears on his face. Crazy Boy: Well, you aren't watching my back, so I assume you have a vested interest in me. As for your Legacy, Cronos. Look at what you have done here. Former No Limits Champion. You have beaten some of the best of the best here. Even here, at your age, you are still going strong. There hasn't been anything you haven't been able to do man.. I may not be too crazy on your psychosis state of mind right now, but I have deep respect for your wrestling abilities... something I kinda look up to, ya know what I mean? Cronos shrugs at the vested interest part then smirks. Cronos Diamante: You flatter me, Tyrone. Cronos pauses for a moment. Cronos Diamante: I have to go find somebody and get ready for my match now, Tyrone. Remember what I said. Cronos turns to walk off. As he reaches the corner to enter the deeper locker room area, he peaks around the corner at Crazy Boy. Cronos Diamante: Thanks again for the help on the water. Gotta have my water before my match. It's my secret to winning matches!!! Cronos cackles and takes off on a run to his locker room. Crazy Boy shakes his head, walking back the other way as he mumbles to himself before the camera fades out. Crazy Boy: He really IS Psycho... water being the secret to winning matches?! It's not water! It's hard work and heart. He's gone off the deep end... Crazy Boy walks back down the hallway, to where he sees the dented up Pepsi Machine and stares at it for a second... Crazy Boy: Or has he?! Crazy Boy takes a dollar out of his pocket and stuffs it in the Pepsi machine and purchases a bottle of water for himself. He opens it up and takes a sip of it and walks down the hallway, still seeming to be lost in thought.
A graphic appears on the screen shortly after the broadcast footage returns to a shot of the ring and ringside fans, announcing the next match. Josephina Colbert: Our next match is set for one fall. Introducing first… The lights go out and a lime green laser light show along with the green "M" Monster logo begins to flash on the LEGACY big screen as "The Key To Gramercy" Park by Deadsy begins to play over the P.A. system. "I got the key, key, to Gramercy Park." At that point a greem fog begins to pour out from the entrance way where we see J-Mo come out to the ring, completely serious in his demeanor. He has on his trademark baggy black pleather shorts, coming down past his knees with a sky blue version of the Monster logo on the pant legs with "Moreno" written in white Monster script. He also has on his current LEGACY shirt, available to the public on this pay per view along with a Monster Energy drink toboggan and wristbands. He tosses the toboggan into the crowd as he walks to the ring. Josephina Colbert: ... from Huntington Beach, California... weighing in tonight at 204 pounds... he is "The Surf City Show-Stealer" and "Huntington Beach's Most Xtreme"... JUSTIN... MORENO!!! "Every night "Face white Moreno then pulls out his Sharpie and begins to take off his shirt, proceeding to autograph it as the fans all clamor trying to catch his shirt. Moreno then tosses it into the crowd before taking off in a sprint for the ring, diving between the middle ropes and rolling in the ring on his back before getting back to his feet and climbing the nearest turnbuckle, gazing out at the fans, pointing to them as he keeps his demeanor for this match. Alan Ducard: Fans, despite trying to put on a brave front for these fans, this is clearly not the Justin Moreno we've seen in LEGACY for the longest time. This is a man going through absolute hell away from the ring and one has to wonder if the Entourage has finally broken his spirit after their deplorable actions at the last STRIFE taping. Bryan Harris: The kid's brought this all on himself. He's insistent on being a martyr for these fans and clearly Derek Shane is gonna be happy to oblige in ending the kid's career. The Internet may love Moreno, but really, as we saw last week, these people are supporting someone who's in denial about his wife's problems. Jimmy Yates: Well, I don't know if Allison Moreno is really on drugs or not, but one thing is for sure. I would not want to push Justin Moreno too much because he's doing all he can to suppress his boiling-over emotions at this point. Moreno then does a back flip off of the top rope, landing on his feet as green pyro shoots out of the ring posts. Moreno is goes to his corner and is already casting a death stare towards the ring entrance as he awaits the arrival of his opponent. Bryan Harris: The kid's not gonna be able to control himself tonight. I know it. Jimmy Yates: Derek Shane and the Entourage might be regretting pushing J-Mo this far for so long after tonight's over. The lights go out and we hear a familiar dun dun duh duh, and a spotlight appears panning over the crowd, but it's not any ordinary spotlight it has the appearance of a gun's cross hairs. Josephina Colbert: Introducing his opponent, FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE, Shane, Derek Shane. The crosshair spotlight stops at the top of the ramp right in front of the entrance and Derek Shane steps out from behind the curtain wearing a tuxedo as "Beverly Hills (007 mix)" by Weezer plays. The crowds boos as Shane struts towards the ring. As Shane nears the ring the lights come one just in time to see Moreno fly through the air spring boarding over the top rope and taking Shane out with a suicide plancha. Bryan Harris: Derek Shane coming to the ring in style. Alan Ducard: It appears Moreno is tired of Shane's games and is ready to get down to business. Moreno lands on Shane and just starts swinging. He pulls Shane up to his feet, and Shane tries to get away by sliding out of his tuxedo jacket, but Moreno grabs him and throws him into the corner post grabbing the back of his dress shirt as he does riping it off. Moreno grabs Shane's tuxedo pants and rips them off before tossing Shane into the ring. Jimmy Yates: Thank god Shane was wearing tights underneath that tuxedo. Shane gets to his feet in the ring wearing short black tights with the dark blue stripe on the side as opposed to his usual full length tights, and still has on his bow tie. As Moreno gets into the ring the ref calls for the bell to officially start the match. As Moreno slides into the ring he is met with a boot to the face by Shane before he can even get to his feet. Shane pulls Moreno up by his arm and goes to whip him into the ropes, but Moreno reverses it and whips Shane into the ropes. As Shane rebounds off the ropes Moreno does a front handspring into a spinning heel kick taking Shane off his feet. Alan Ducard: Moreno with a little Razzle dazzle in the early moments of this match. Jimmy Yates: Moreno in control early on. Bryan Harris: Only because he cheats. He attacked Shane before he could even get in the ring. Moreno throws Shane into the corner and starts nailing him with lefts and rights. The ref yells at him telling him no closed fists, but this doesn't stop Moreno. Eventually the ref pushes himself between the two and Moreno stops just short of punching the ref. He is reprimanded and warned that further actions could result in a disqualification. While Moreno is momentarily distracted by the ref Shane steps forward quickly grabbing Moreno and sending him chest first into the corner turnbuckles. Shane quickly lifts Moreno up to the top turnbuckle positioning him facing the crowd and then climbs up to the second turnbuckle himself and locks in a dragon sleeper. The ref starts to give a five count, but when he gets to four Shane lifts Moreno up and hits a dragon sleeper superplex. Alan Ducard: Shane just hit Moreno with the One Hit Wonder a move he hasn't used since coming to Legacy. Jimmy Yates: That move helped Shane beat Loco Martinez for the TTW TV title, but I've never seen him hit it so early in a match before. Bryan Harris: It just goes to show you that Shane plans to make short work of Justin Moreno. Shane quickly goes for a cover, making sure to hook the leg. One Two kick out. Jimmy Yates: It was probably a little two early to go for the win, but it was still a close call for Moreno. Alan Ducard: Moreno has to stay level headed and not let his temper get the best of him. if Shane can catch him with another move like that again this could be over. Shane lifts Moreno up and in position for a suplex and reaches down to hook Moreno's leg for the perfectplex, which is the lead in to the Cut and Print, but Moreno hooks Shane's leg and rolls him up into an inside cradle. One Two kick out They both roll up to their feet and Moreno rushes at Shane. the two lock up in the center of the ring with a collar elbow tie up. Moreno gets the advantage with a side headlock. he quickly spins Shane around and hits an inverted DDT. As Shane gets to his feet Moreno runs and hops up to the top rope springboarding off doing a 180 flip with a 360 turn wrapping his legs around Shane's neck and flipping him over with a huricanrana into another pin attempt. One Two Shane reaches out and grabs the bottom rope and the ref stops the count as Moreno is visibly annoyed. Alan Ducard: Moreno hits the springboard phoenix dragonrana and almost got the three count. Jimmy Yates: Shane didn't even have the energy to kick out, he had to reach out and grab the bottom rope with his hand. Bryan Harris: He was just conserving energy. Moreno lifts Shane up and spits in his face before blatantly tossing him over the top rope to the outside. Bryan Harris: DISQUALIFY HIM!!!! Jimmy Yates: Did we suddenly time warp back to 1980's NWA, tossing someone over the top rope hasn't been illegal for years. Bryan Harris: Well it should be. Moreno waits for Shane to get up and when he does Moreno jumps to the top rope and leaps onto Shane's shoulders grabbing his arms and drives him into the floor on the outside with a backwards pedigree he calls the Monster mash. The ref who until that point had been counting both men out stops his count and rolls out of the ring to check on Shane to see if he should stop the match. Alan Ducard: Devastating move from Moreno , but it seems like he may have took some damage as he's laying there trying to catch his breath. Wait a minute what's he doing here? The crowd boos as we see Stephen Rawlings run down the ramp towards the ring, but he doesn't go towards Moreno and Shane, but instead hops up onto the apron. Bryan Harris: Who's he hear to help? Jimmy Yates: There is no love lost between Rawlings and Moreno, but Shane and Him are probably not the the best of terms either, especially after Shane left him for dead at the last Strife when he teamed with Dawson. Rawlings goes over to the left corner and starts to undo the top turnbuckles. He undoes the cover and quickly rips off the padding. he then hops down and makes his way back up the ramp before either wrestler or the ref sees him. Bryan Harris: What the hell is going on? Rawlings just undid that turnbuckle, but he isn't even going to use it. he just went back to the back. Jimmy Yates: Something is going on here and i don't like the smell of it. On the outside Shane is trying to shake the cobwebs loose and tells the ref not to stop the match. Moreno grabs Shane from behind and tosses him back into the ring under the bottom rope. Moreno and the ref follow Shane into the ring. As Moreno gets close to Shane, Shane hits him with a low blow, but quickly follows it up with a fireman's carry slam to try and hide the fact that he did a low blow. Shane is about to follow up when he looks up and sees the exposed turnbuckle. He pulls Moreno up and is about to whip him into the exposed steel, but Moreno reverses it and takes Shane off his feet with a short arm clothesline. Jimmy Yates: Things are about to get very interesting as both men have now noticed the exposed turnbuckle. Shane gets to his feet and as Moreno rushes at him Shane takes him down with a drop toe hold. Shane quickly turns Moreno so he is facing the Jumbotron then gets on his back and looks in a camel clutch/sleeper combo he calls the starry Night. as he does the jumbotron roars to life and we see a replay of last weeks Strife where Allison Moreno has Coke and powdered sugar dumped onto her while Shane chases her. after the clip plays words scroll across the screen. DRUGS ARE BAD, DRINK COKE. Alan Ducard: this is uncalled for. Shane and the Entourage should not be pointing out Allison's flaws and they definitely shouldn't be taunting Justin with them. Upon seeing the video Moreno snaps. With a sudden burst of adrenaline he stands straight up with Shane on his back and runs backwards ramming Shane into the exposed steel of the turnbuckle.Moreno then unleashes a fury of rights and lefts on Shane before wrapping his hands around his neck and starting to choke him. The ref starts the five count and when Moreno doesn't let go after the count of five the ref tries to physically remove him as Shane's face is starting to change color. Moreno lets goof Shane long enough to push the ref away and then turns Shane around and starts ramming him head first into exposed steel repeatedly. the ref looks to the time keeper and calls for the bell and gets out of the ring. Bryan Harris: Moreno is a mad man, some one stop this. Shane is busted open and blood is pouring out of his face as Moreno doesn't stop and it looks like Shane's nose is broken as well. Josephina Colbert: The winner of this match, by result of disqualification, Derek Shane!!! Hearing this only angers Moreno more. He slams Shane's head into the exposed steel one more time with all his might and Shane's head ricochets back and Shane falls to the mat, but Moreno isn't done. Moreno starts stomping Shane kicking him repeatedly in the legs, arms, and chest as refs and security swarm the ring and pull Moreno away who tries to get in a few more kicks. As security is dragging Moreno to the back Dawson, John James, and shadow run past him towards the ring to check on Shane. Alan Ducard: Moreno may have lost the match, but i think he i still satisfied with the outcome of revenge, but i expect this is far from over. As the Entourage members enter the ring Shane is feeling his face with his hands then leaning into the corner he looks at his bloody hands. Dawson and Shadow try to help Shane, but he pushes them away and screams at them. Derek Shane: Stay away from me, I'm a monster, a MONSTER. Shane reaches up and touches his face again. Derek Shane: My eyes, I can't see my eyes. What has he done? Shane rolls out of the ring and tries to make his way towards the entrance ramp but stumbles and falls. Jimmy Yates: Shane's face is covered in blood, and from the looks of it, it has gotten in his eyes and may have temporarily blinded him. Shadow tires to help Shane up, but Shane pushes him away, constantly muttering the word monster as his bloody hands leave behind imprints on the entrance ramp as Shane crawls up the ramp. a few moments later Shane uses the curtain that leads to the backstage to pull himself to his feet and stumbles backstage as the Entourage members follow him trying to help him, and stop him from hurting himself worse. |
