((This was a match from uWe's (Ultimate Wrestling Entertainment) PPV Midsummer Massacre. It was a #1 Contender's match for the uWe International Title. I will post the entire match and will label whose post was whose with bold italic underline My character was Ronnie Cage. One thing to know is this fed was based on match posts and RPs or as we call them "Promos". You were allowed up to 3 Promos per match.))
Chaos:
Justin Roberts the Rapture ring announcer stands inside of the Midsummer Massacre ring and addresses the crowd in an enthusiastic voice. The crowd begins to cheer aloud as Justin speaks clearly.
Justin Roberts: The following is a triple threat number one contenders match for the International Championship and it is scheduled for one fall!
The crowd breaks into loud cheers as a bright red pyro shoots out from the stage and "Dragula" by Rob Zombie hits the announce system. Chaos appears on the stage as the fans give him a standing ovation. Chaos eyes are bright as he smirks and pulls his shades down to peek at the fans with a smug look. The Toronto Native is wearing a black leather trenchcoat and black rayband shades. The monstrous superstar wears a red pair of wrestling trunks underneath the trenchcoat and black wrestling boots along with black elbow pads and knee pads. Victoria stands beside Chaos in a blood red tank top and a blood red mini skirt. Chaos and Victoria begin to storm down the ramp to loud cheers.
Justin Roberts: Introducing first from TORONTO, ONTARIO CANADA... Weighing in at 280 pounds... Being accompanied by Victoria, he is the Canadian Psycho... CHAOS!
Michael Cole: Chaos is a Toronto Native who has been touring with UWE since the beginning. Chaos has had his ups and downs and tonight he is looking to climb his way back to the top and gain a title shot.
Tazz: The winner of this match will either face Brandon Sorrow or Cthuhlu! We don't have a International champ at the moment because that title is vacated.
Michael Cole: Because of the trade involving Davy Blade. Some superstars are probably happy about that because without that trade many of them wouldn't have been able to compete in a tournament for such high stakes.
Chaos hits the hands of a few fans as he makes his way down the ramp. The fans watch in awe while Chaos stands near the ring steps and removes his shades... So Cal Val steps forward to take them, but Chaos mutters something. Chaos reaches out to a fan and hands the fan his shades and grins. The fan begins to cheer loudly while making the devil horns with their hand and they put Chaos over. The Canadian Psycho scales the apron in front of the crazed fans and gracefully flings himself over the top rope. Chaos lands on both of his feet inside of the ring. The fans are still cheering madly as Chaos removes his trenchcoat and tosses it to the ground for the ring attendant.
Michael Cole: Chaos is a former World Champion and Tag Champion! I'm safe to bet that he would like to add International Champion to his list of accomplishments and I'm also safe to bet that he will do whatever he can to win this match.
Tazz: Oh without a doubt Cole! Chaos has had some great matches with some of UWE's best such as Davy Blade, The Undertaker and the retired Danger!
Victoria stands beside Chaos and puts her arms around his waist and looks up at Chaos. Victoria stands back and holds Chaos' arm up as she points at him while putting him over in his home town. All of a sudden...
Warren Peace:
A voice is heard whispering “Ghetto Gospel” over the PA system. All of a sudden the fans pop even louder as “Store Bought Bones” by the Raconteurs blast from the speakers. Warren Peace steps on to the stage wearing a ghetto gospel “Who Want Some” t-shirt, a pair of black trunks with a cross on both legs and black wrestling boots with linking G’s on them. Warren reaches his hands to the sky as a row of white pyros explode in order down the ring ramp and quickly back up, once they reach the top again two giant pyros shot into the air. Warren lifts his right arm to his side and CJ De Luca walks out wearing a Ghetto Gospel half shirt, some blue jeans and a pair of black and blue sneaks. She grabs Warren by the arm and they both start down the ramp.
Justin: And his opponent, hailing from Philadelphia, PA. Weighing in at 225 lbs. Representing Ghetto Gospel and being accompanied to the ring by CJ De Luca, he is “God’s favorite” Warren Peace.
The crowd grows louder as Warren and De Luca slap hands with the fans that are close enough to reach as they past by. In the crowd reads a sign that reads: “Warren got screwed”.
Cole: Warren Peace and Brandon Sorrow put on one hell of a match last week. Sorrow pulled out a win and now faces Cthuhlu later tonight for the IN title.
Tazz: Yeah but you can bet Warren wants another shot at that title.
Cole: Well Tazz earlier today we saw some footage of what happened yesterday onside the uWe headquarters.
Tazz: Warren and StoneRoc made their way inside Destiny’s office and got into a little bit of a scuffle with the ministry. But tonight Warren will have to put all that behind him if he wants to win this match.
Cole: This is the first time Warren and Chaos have been in the same ring, what can either man do to gain an advantage?
Tazz: That’s a good question. If your Warren you want to use your speed on Chaos try to get him tired and then you make your move. Now if you’re Chaos, you want to play it cool don’t try to rush in on Warren let him get close and then use your strength to knock him out.
Warren enters the ring and helps CJ inside also. He removes his shirt and throws it into the crowd; two girls catch it and begin to argue about the item until it rips leaving both women happy. CJ gives Warren a good luck kiss and rolls out of the ring as Warren and Chaos stare each other down.
Jake Rifle:
Cole: Are next entrance is scheduled to be the newest member of the Ministry of Darkness, Jake Rifle.
Tazz: That’s right Cole, what a way to show Rapture he’s heading to the top by teaming up with our current world champion and beating both Hermanni Lindstrum, and his old time rival Stone Roc.
Cole: and it looks like its showing off, Tazz. Tonight the Ministry ‘higher power’ Destiny booked him in a number one contenders match versus the man fellow Ministry member Brandon Sorrow knocked out, Warren Peace.
Tazz: Let’s not forget Chaos though! This man has held more gold than most men here in uWe!
As the two announcers continue to discuss the card, the camera switches to backstage footage Jake is scene backstage in his Black colour spats, with a White coloured stripe down the side. He is hopping from foot to foot, pumping himself up for his match. Finally, Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit comes on with the slow guitar line. After only a few seconds the lyrics have begun and Jake has emerged from the backstage and onto the stage. Despite the booing, he poses for the cameras to flash, before walking down the ramp.
Its just one of those days
When you don't wanna wake up
Everything is fucked
Everybody sux
You don't really know why
But you want justify
Rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact
Your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
It's just one of those days!!
"Making his way to the ring, from Edmonton Canada, weighing in at 231 pounds... He is the newest member of the Ministry of Darkness… JAKE RIFLE!"
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit
Lettin' shit slip
Or you'll be leavin with a fat lip
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit talkin that shit
(Punk, so come and get it)
Its just one of those days
Feelin' like a freight train
First one to complain
Leaves with a blood stain
Damn right I'm a maniac
You better watch your back
Cuz I'm fuckin' up your program
And if your stuck up
You just lucked up
Next in line to get fucked up
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
Its just one of those days!!
Cole: Do you think the fact that both Chaos and Warren have someone at ringside with them is an advantage?
Tazz: Let me tell you Cole, for some people it wont. But I know jake, and I think he’s got it covered. The guys got amazing ring sense, and he’ll be able to see stuff coming.
Cole: Don’t you think that’s a bit biased? Jake hasn’t been around that long, if your gonna talk about ring sense… Woulden’t the veteran and hometown hero Chaos have the edge?
By now Jake is midway down the ramp. He eyes Victoria, and than Chaos and finally Warren. Shrugging, he makes his way around to the stairs rather than sliding under the bottom rope like usual. He steps between the second rope and the top rope and into the ring. Chaos respectfully slides out of the ring, and talks with Victoria for a moment. But Warren and CJ hold their ground, as Jake approaches and talks some trash to the Ghetto Gospel member. The crowd responds to this with a roar of boo’s, shaking the building.
Cole: Y’know Tazz, I didn’t know it was possible, but I think the crowd may be booing more for Jake tonight than they usually do.
Tazz: That’s a true mark of a champion, Cole. Way back to when Danger was the champion, to now a days with the Undertaker, all the real talent gets booed. There are a few people who can shake it off and continue on though, and my boy Jake is one of them…
Cole: Speaking of the Deadman, stay tuned for out main event, we get to see one half of our tag team champions face off versus The Phenom for the heavyweight championship tonight!
Rifle had switched turnbuckles and taunted the crowd once again, but by now had stepped down and moved to his corner. All 3 men looked at each other and started talking trash, including Rifle making motions towards CJ. Warren looked ready to pounce and awaited the bell... but than another theme cut across the arena!
Ronnie Cage:
The eerie chord progression of Linkin Park's No More Sorrow leaves everyone in the arena wondering why Ronnie Cage's music is playing. After a few seconds the chord progression is joined by a set of power chords which come accompanied by a light beat and a lit up Titantron. The titantron shows images and clips of Ronnie Cage throwing his guitar onto someones head or hitting his trademark Alabama-rama. The music continues for a few seconds and then stops, all we hear is the beat, then suddenly the power chords come back stronger than before but the pyrotechnics that everyone is now expecting don't go off. Instead Ronnie Cage just walks out with his wife and manager Michelle Cage and a microphone in his hand while his wife holds a clip-board.
Cole: What on God's green earth is Ronnie Cage doing here? He's not scheduled to be in this match.
Tazz: Well girl-pants, if you quit babbling for just a second, maybe he'd tell us.
Ronnie: Cut mah music! Ah said cut mah damn music! Don't yew even think about starting that match without me! Someone made a mistake. In mah wife's hand is a contract signed by mahself and Destiny, stating that Ah would get a shot to be numba one contenda.
He looks at his wife and they both smirk. Ronnie sees Justin looking worried and about to introduce him.
Ronnie: Don't yew fuckin think about introducing me! These stupid Canadians aren't worthy enough to hear mah introduction!
Ronnie walks down to the ring with his wife, but this was different, he was not in the mood for fun and games. He exchanged the microphone for the clip-board and had his wife stay outside of the ring. She glared at Victoria and CJ. Ronnie walked up the steel steps keeping a close eye on Jake Rifle, who he knew to be a member of the Ministry, he cockily smiled because he knew the other two would be too cowardly to attack him. He stepped between the middle and top rope, still keeping an eye on Rifle. He walked up to to the ref and handed him the clip-board. While the ref was checking it over, Ronnie looked over his shoulder to see Warren Peace not too far behind him. So when the ref handed the clip-board back, nodded that it was all clear and turned his back to signal the bell to be rung. Ronnie instantly turned smacking Warren Peace in the head with the clip-board, and then dropping an elbow sliding the clip-board out of the ring with his feet. The bell rings and the battle begins.
Cole: Wow, Tazz, this triple threat is now a fatal four way and what a way to start it, Cage is just lucky that the ref didn't see that illegal move or he would've been out of here as quickly as he came in.
Tazz: Yeah, Cole, seeing Ronnie Cage in this match could definitely spice things up a bit.
Chaos:
The crowd is booing loudly as Ronnie Cage goes for the quick cover on Warren Peace. Michelle Cage claps and cheers for her man as the referee begins to count the quick pinfall attempt. Before the two count Chaos breaks the pinfall with a kick to the back of Ronnie Cage's head. Cage grabs his head and rolls down to his back and sits up. Chaos picks Cage up and places him in a quick side headlock. Jake Rifle and Warren Peace are busy exchanging shots with one another with the referee checking on them before rushing to Chaos who has Cage in a standing side headlock. Chaos begins to yell aloud.
Chaos: You wanna bad mouth my home country?
Chaos drops down to one knee and drives Cage's back into Chaos' left knee. The impact from the move causes Ronnie to roll down on the canvas before standing up. Chaos would move towards Cage with a flurry of open palm strikes and he begins to hammer away at Cage. Chaos steps back after several strikes and rushes towards Cage with a clothesline. Ronnie Cage ducks underneath the clothesline. Chaos flips around immeadiately and Cage kicks Chaos in the stomach. Chaos grabs his abdominal region and Chaos kicks Chaos in the head causing the Toronto native to fall backwards and through the ropes and onto the matt outside of the ring.
Michael Cole: Chaos is knocked out of the ring by Cage! For the folks watching at home Chaos cannot be counted out because this match is a fatal four way where there is no count outs, but wrestlers can be disqualified.
Tazz: They oughta be careful about what they do. Be careful about no getting caught. Kinda like Ronnie.
Meanwhile Jake Rifle and Warren Peace are working each other over with strikes. Peace kicks Jake in the stomach and Jake falls down to one knee. Warren is quick to drop down and take Rifle down with a quick firemens carry. Warren Peace is back up on his feet again as Rifle gets up too with one hand on hi back. Peace leaps at Rifle with a dropkick and Rifle collapses from the impact of the blow. Warren Peace utilizes Rifles down position to his advantage as he goes for the cover. The referee begins to count the pinning predicament.
Referee: One.. two..
Rifle kicks out. Warren Peace stands up and Rifle begins to stand up. Warren drops an axe handle on Rifles back. Warren is quick to follow up by lifting Jake up with a suplex and driving Jake into the ground with the suplex. Warren Peace goes for another cover and the referee begins to count the pinfall, but Jake kicks out at the two count. Peace turns to CJ De Luca who tells Peace to keep trying. Warren Peace stands up...
Michael Cole: Rifle kicked out. Warren Peace is trying to get the match over with it seems and steal the victory.
Meanwhile on the outside of the ring Chaos is getting up, but Ronnie Cage is on his tail as he dropkicks Chaos into the ring steps. Chaos grabs his back and lets out a loud grunt. Cage picks Chaos up and chops him across the chest before grabbing Chaos' hair and slamming him head first into the steel steps. Chaos grabs his face and tries to get up, but Cage follows up with an elbow to the face of Chaos. The vicious manuever causes Chaos to collapse. Victoria checks on Chaos while glaring at Cage. Victoria is eager to help Chaos stand up and get him back into the match, but is also cautious for he could get badly hurt. The crowd is cheering for Chaos who is standing up. Ronnie runs in Chaos' direction and grabs Chaos by the arm and head and drives Chaos into the ground with a swinging neckbreaker.
Michael Cole: Ronnie Cage is punishing Chaos. Cage badmouthed Canada and Chaos got defensive and now they're fighting on the outside..
Ronnie Cage grabs Chaos by the arm and picks him up. Chaos knees Cage in the stomach and screams aloud to the crowds surprise. Chaos continues with the knees before picking Cage up with a german suplex. Chaos drives Ronnie into the matt and the crowd cheers loudly. Chaos stands up and attempts to collect himself as Cage is down on the ground for now...
Jake Rifle:
Warren had been on the inside of the ring recovering for a moment when Chaos had begun the knee strikes, and eventually hit Ronnie with a German Suplex. Jake had made his way up to his knees, and as Warren turned to pick him onto his feet Jake punches Warren in the stomach. Warren is stunned, and Jake follows up with another two punches before getting back onto his feet. Warren is buckled over, and Jake wraps his hand around Warrens head and hits a DDT. Quickly, before Peace can react Jake has climbed up onto the top rope. He quickly jumps into the air and hits a leg drop off of the top rope, driving his leg across Warren’s neck. Quickly he goes for the pinfall but Warren kicks out at two. He tries again, and only gets another two. Frustrated he lifts Warren up and whips him into the ropes. Warren bounces off the ropes and goes to clothesline Jake, who jumps over him. Warren continues going, before connecting with a baseball slide to the outside of the ring! Ronnie Cage, who had just made it to his feet found himself laid out again.
Cole: Wow! Did you see that? I didn’t know Warren was that athletic.
Tazz: Cole, that’s because you’ve never been in the ring. If I was there I would’ve done the same thing, probably better too…
Cole: Whatever you say Tazz… I hadn’t seen him perform moves like that too often.
Tazz: Well, maybe if you paid more attention than you would see it, it’s that simple Cole…
The manoeuvre took a lot out of Warren, and Chaos was still standing strong. The Toronto native brought Warren to his feet and kicked him in the gut. He looked like he was going to put Warren into position for a Samoan Drop, but he was soon met by Jake Rifle who had made his way outside. Jake went to hit Chaos with a big right hand, but the veteran blocked it. Before Jake could throw another punch at Chaos, Chaos grabbed a hold of both Jake and Warren’s arms. He than preceded to Irish whip them, and they both smashed into the ringsteps and knocked them clear off. The crowd pops for this, and Chaos takes a minute to pump up the crowd. The roaring continues, but is soon turned into boos. As Chaos turns around, he gets knocked flat on his back by Ronnie Cage and his Van Zant kick.
Tazz: Hahah! That’s just like Ronnie… Let the others do the work and than knock out the last man standing.
Cole: And you condone that? It’s a cheap tactic! Maybe if he actually did the wrestling on his own for once, he could win some more matches…
Tazz: What are you talking about? Ronnie has one of the best records here on Rapture… He’s a true athlete, and Destiny knows that. That’s why she added him into this match.
Ronnie was quick to throw Chaos in the ring. He quickly locks in a Texas cloverleaf called ‘Southern Comfort’. Chaos moans in pain and reaches for the ropes, but he is too far away. Victoria gives out a yell to Chaos pleading him to get to the ropes, or break free of the hold. To this Ronnie just tightens the grip. After about another ten or fifteen seconds, Chaos begins to fade and his eyes get clouded over. The ref sees this and reaches for Chaos’s hand. He raises it to the air, and drops it. He repeats this twice, and when Chaos’s hand is raised for a final time, Jake slides under the bottom rope and charges at Ronnie, Spears the southern man right out of his sitting position, and effectively breaking the submission. The crowd gives mixed reaction, Jake had stopped Ronnie from winning but they knew better than to trust Jake. There mistrust is correct, and Jake than drops to the mat and hooks Chaos’s leg and looks to steal the win over the dazed man. But to the crowds surprise, and Jakes own surprise, Chaos kicked out at two! Quickly Jake got back to his feet and ran to the turnbuckle. Before he could figure out what he would’ve done though, Warren had managed to punch him from the apron. The two changed blows until Warren also grabbed a hold of Jake by his tights, and throws him off the turnbuckle and into the middle of the ring. Now with the 3 other men laid out, Warren has his pick of who to pin. He decides Ronnie is the best of the 3 and hooks both legs. The fan count with the ref, but all let out a gasp as they count 3 but the ref does not. He notices Ronnie’s foot on the bottom rope and a smirking Michelle Cage at ringside. CJ De Luca than steps off the apron and gives Mrs. Cage a look, which she does not take well. Michelle lays CJ out with a clothesline, and than turns to face the ring. Michelle doesn’t see Victoria coming however, and is soon knocked down to the floor with CJ as Victoria stands strong after clotheslining the southern lady. With all four men beginning to stir in the ring, anything could happen…
Warren Peace:
Warren stands up in shock that the match isn’t over he looks around and sees CJ knocked down outside the ring. He hops out and begins to argue with Victoria about what happened. She explains to Warren that it was Mrs. Cage who knocked her down; Warren shakes his head and turns back to enter the ring but instead is meet with a kick to the face by Chaos who has made it to his feet. Chaos then moves his attention over to Jake Rifle who is almost to his feet. Chaos delivers a stiff kick to the gut and hooks Jake neck in his arm he then quickly straighten his hips delivering a snap suplex. Chaos goes for the cover but manages a quick two much to the dislike of his home crowd. Chaos sees Ronnie on his knees and quickly moves in with a kick to the head knocking Cage outside the ring. Warren stands to his feet outside the ring and sees Cage lying there like a gift from god, Warren begins to sends stomps to Ronnie’s chest and gut as Chaos mounts Jake and starts to deliver shots to his forehead. As Warren beats away on Ronnie, Michelle begins to tiptoe behind him ready to sneak God’s Favorite. Mrs. Cage gets within a few inches of Warren and goes for a low blow. Warren watching Michelle the whole time on the Titantron catches her hand as she is about to land and pulls her off her knees by her hair. He then looks to the crowd to see what he should do; hearing the crowd cheer Warren knows what he must do. Warren picks Michelle up and drapes her over his shoulder in a crucifix position, he then lifts her into the air ready to strike with the Crucifix Bomb but Ronnie delivers a low blow that sends Warren to his knees. Meanwhile, Chaos is in the ring still beating the hell out of Jake Ronnie makes his way back into the ring. Chaos isn’t paying attention to Ronnie as he is to busy stomping on Jake, Cage quickly hits Chaos in the back of the head with the Van Zant. Chaos falls to the mat and Ronnie goes for the cover. 1…2… CJ De Luca pulls the ref out of the ring. As she explains herself to the ref Warren makes it back in the ring and is now semi-standing behind Ronnie Cage as Cage turns around Warren scoops him up and plants him with a Hurricanrana Warren holds on to Cage’s neck and rolls over so that his back is on the mat. Warren then hooks his right shin under Cage’s neck and his left leg across his shoulder, Warren then grabs Cage’s head and pulls down on it hooking in the Sin Stealer. The ref not knowing if it is a legal hold or not drops to is knees and begins to ask if the Southern Superstar will submit.
Tazz: I think that is an illegal choke.
Cole: Well if the ref doesn’t call it, then it’s legal.
Tazz: Oh no Warren better watch out!
Inside the ring Jake gives Warren a stomp to the face, which forces him to break the hold. Jake then picks Ronnie up on his feet and hits with the Panicstruck knocking Ronnie clean out. Jake hooks the leg for the pin 1…2… Warren breaks up the count with a last minute dive on top of Jake. Warren then makes it to his feet but Chaos picks him into the air and nails the Taste of Chaos. Chaos goes for the cover but only gets a two count before Jake breaks it up with a kick to the ribs. Chaos only manages to get to one knee before Jake hits him with the Panicstruck knocking Chaos to the mat just as he did Cage. Jake goes for the cover 1…2… before the ref hand can touch the canvas Ronnie Cage managed to break up the count by pulling Chaos by the leg from under Jake. Ronnie is now standing up waiting for Jake to turn around as soon as he does Cage turns off Jake’s lights with a Van Zant that damn near knocks Jake’s head in to the crowd. Before Cage can make a pin Warren is on his feet and is now waiting for him to turn around. Tired of waiting Warren spins Cage around and brings him down with an arm drag Warren holds on and locks in the Confession.
Cole: Cage is in trouble. Chaos and Jake are both down in the ring.
Tazz: It’s only a matter of time, before Cage will have to tap or get his arm ripped from his body.
Warren tightens the move as the crowd’s cheers drown out Ronnie’s cries of pain. As Peace pulls back harder and harder Ronnie’s arm begins to hurt more and more. He can feel the muscle in his shoulder beginning to grow weak and it feels like it about to tear apart from the bone. Ronnie knowing what he has to do starts to slowly crawl towards the rope, inch-by-inch he crawls as the pain jolts through his body. As he gets within a hand reach of the ropes Warren rolls backwards and now is back at the center of the ring. Ronnie can finally take no more and lifts his hand ready to tap, right before his hand reaches the mat Chaos dives in and breaks up the hold.
Tazz: Oh man. Chaos just saved this match for himself, Ronnie was this close to tapping.
Cole: Chaos got right in there and kept this match going. But has the damage already been done to Ronnie is he now the weak man of the match?
Ronnie Cage
Chaos makes it quickly back to his feet. Warren, now furious because he saw Ronnie's hand about to tap, jumps onto his feet to meet the Canadian Psycho. He shoves Chaos, but the Toronto native does not like to be shoved so he steps towards Peace to return the shove, but Warren quickly hits Chaos with a snap suplex. He then mounts Chaos delivering five huge powerful punches to Chaos' head with each hand. In the meantime, Rifle starts to stir, he grabs his head after the massive Van Zant, but doesn't let it slow him down. He sees Ronnie still laying on the ground, conscious, but trying desperately to find the energy to get up. Rifle pulls Ronnie as far away from the ropes as he can, he then reaches around Ronnie's neck and locks his hands together pulling back and applying a Camel Clutch. But Jake is hit with a dropkick to the head from Chaos after Warren Peace reversed an Irish Whip. Ronnie takes advantage and rolls out of the ring to try and recuperate. Chaos gets to his feet, but before he can turn around, Peace runs up behind him, jumps and grabs Chaos' face planting it into the mat with a bulldog. He goes for then pin. The ref counts: One! Two! Chaos kicks out. Peace picks Chaos up off the mat, but Chaos quickly hits him in the head with an elbow strike, then follows it up with another, then another. Warren peace stumbles back, Chaos races backwards towards the ropes, using them to propel himself towards God's Favourite and hitting him in the face with a running big boot. But as he turns around he is met by a spear from Jake Rifle. Rifle looks around to see where Cage is, but cannot seem to find him, not wanting to waste his time, he alternates, stomping on Peace, then on Chaos, and back again. Ronnie now seizing his opportunity, slides into the ring as quietly as he can. He starts to creep up behind Rifle, but Rifle whirls around after seeing Ronnie on the Titantron and lunges. Ronnie however, grabs both of Jake's arms and holds them down as he connects with a vicious headbutt. But Ronnie doesn't let Rifle drop to the floor, he connects with another headbutt, harder than the first. This time he drops Rifle and shakes off the slight headache he undoubtedly just caused himself.
Cole: Wow, looks like Cage has recovered from that beating he took earlier, eh Tazz?
Tazz: Cole, was that an attempt at a Canadian joke? You disgust me! As far as Ronnie Cage goes, he has a lot more stamina than most would expect. He hides it, that's what makes him so dangerous, he'll make you think he's down, or weak, but when you least expect it he'll turn the tables with an enormous burst of energy.
Cage makes his way over to Chaos. Attempting to ridicule the Toronto native in his own hometown. He applies a front face lock on Chaos and throws his near arm across his shoulders, bends his knees, grabs Chaos' tights, and lifts him straight up into the air. Ronnie lets the blood flow to Chaos' head as the sound of Michelle Cage shouting "Come on baby!" can be heard. Ronnie lands a brainbuster, which he hopes is enough to win him the match. Ronnie goes for the quick cover. The referee counts: One! Two! But the pin is broken up by an elbow drop from Peace. God's Favourite leaves Chaos on the ground, but picks Ronnie up and Irish Whips him to the corner, Peace follows it up with a shoulder thrust. Warren pulls Cage out of the corner and whips him towards the other side of the ring, but no sooner had he done that, Cage is sent flying backwards into Peace knocking him into the corner where Cage had just lay.
Cole: What an incredibly tactful missile dropkick from Jake Rifle, you can tell he has his head in the game.
Tazz: Sure Cole, he's looking to make sure that if by some chance Brandon doesn't win the International Title, he can pick up the slack and bring a second title to the Ministry of Darkness.
As Ronnie uses the ropes to pull himself to his feet, he is met by a clothesline by Chaos, sending him out of the ring. Michelle rushes to his aid, but is stopped by CJ who grabs her by the hair and yanks her away from her husband. Warren Peace starts to stir in the corner. Meanwhile Chaos and Jake Rifle are trading rights and lefts. Rifle finally manages to whip Chaos to the ropes, and on his return, Rifle grabs him by the neck and lands a swinging neckbreaker. He then kicks Chaos several times in the ribs, rolling him under the bottom rope and onto the hard floor. It doesn't look like he'll be up very soon. Warren Peace kneels in corner and makes a cross with his hand, with a big cheesy grin on his face, he's now ready to take on the Ministry's newest recruit. He charges at full speed towards Rifle, who smirks and simply steps out of the way just as Peace dives to make his "Damnation Spear", instead Peace dives through the ropes colliding with the large metal barrier outside the ring. Rifle looks on as he sees Chaos out cold and Peace slumped against cold metal. He smirks, not being able to account for Cage, he assumes that he is now charging towards him. Jake turns to see that he's right and meets Satan's Superior with a clothesline, both men are instantly on their feet again as Ronnie is hit with another clothesline, this happens a third and final time. After this, Rifle picks Ronnie up, takes a few steps back while Ronnie is still a little groggy, then runs towards him, jumps in the air, hooking his head and landing a Tornado DDT in the middle of the ring. He makes a quick check to see if either Peace or Chaos are moving, and to his relief, neither is moving. So he rushes back to Ronnie, who now has rolled onto his back. Rifle picks up both of Cage's legs and steps through them, wrapping both of them around his own leg. He then turns Cage over onto his belly and crouches backwards applying pressure with his now locked in sharpshooter. The referee checks on Cage to see if he's willing to tap out, but he refuses. Rifle pulls Cage even further away from the ropes and tightens his hold. But Ronnie still refuses to tap out. All of a sudden Cage belts out with all his might.
Ronnie:NOW YEW MOTHERFUCKER!!!
Michelle Cage jumps up and down outside the ring flailing her arms like a mad women. Rifle smirks because he thinks Cage is talking to him. All of a sudden, a modified version of Neil Young's Southern Man bellows throughout the arena as the roof to the Rogers Centre makes a large noise and now starts to slide open. Everyone in the arena including Jake Rifle and the referee are now staring upwards. Ronnie smirks, as his plan worked. Jake in fact is so distracted that he drops the hold and Ronnie's legs. Ronnie quickly rolls over and pulls his knees into his chest. Just as Jake realizes what he'd done, Ronnie kicks Rifle in the back of both knees causing him to fall. Ronnie uses the ropes to get to his feet. Out of the corner of his eye he sees Chaos climbing onto the mat, Satan's Superior rushes over and kicks him in the ribs knocking him off the mat. Warren Peace has now managed to pull himself into the ring, he's still a little dazed, so Ronnie rushes over to him and tosses him over the top rope. Finally Rifle runs towards him for a clothesline, but Ronnie counters it grabbing rifle in a full nelson. He looks right and checks on Warren Peace, he looks left and checks on Chaos, and then plants Jake Rifle's face straight into the mat.
Cole: I am in shock, Tazz. I honestly don't know what to say.
Tazz: That roof opening was one smart move. I'll give you that, Cole. That must be what Cage was paying the man for earlier tonight.
Cole: But Ronnie was just in what looked like a very painful sharpshooter. How could he possibly have the energy to kick Rifle in both legs. Get up so quickly, knock down Chaos, throw Warren Peace out of the ring, and then, land the Alabama-rama on Rifle. I just don't get it, Tazz.
Tazz: Like I said earlier, Cole. Ronnie Cage has a lot more stamina than most would expect. That move probably didn't hurt as much as he let on. He was absorbing the moves and showing pain so that no one would expect this.
End
OOC: Will Ronnie make the pin and win the match, will Jake Rifle kick out, or will one of the other two rush in to make the save and continue this grueling match. You'll all know before I do. Hope you enjoyed the read. I'll have my last promo out within a day or two.
((The above OOC comment was part of the post. Below I will post the Match Summary and result, it didn't really include any of the match posts but that was ok.))
Match Summary and Result
International Title #1 Contenders
Warren Peace vs. Jake Rifle vs. Chaos vs. Ronnie Cage
Up next was the Number One Contendership Match for the UWE International Title. All four men fought hard, giving it their all to earn that prestigious shot. The match became an all out brawl, as all four men did their best to weaken the other three. The brawl especially escalated between Jake Rifle and Warren Peace. The two began to beat on each other viciously, hoping to permanently injure the other. However, all of their hammering away at each other distracted them from one Mr. Ronnie Cage. Cage would begin to pummel away at the Canadian Psycho, much to the dismay of the fans. On the outside, Jake Rifle began to get an advantage over Warren Peace. Rifle began to back him up the entrance ramp. However, Warren gained a quick advantage with a Clothesline. Warren then grabbed hold of Rifle, until the newest member of the Ministry hit a Low Blow. Rifle then leveled him with a Panicstruck, and dragged him to the back. Cage and Chaos all alone, Cage took advantage with a Low Blow of his own, out of sight of the official of course. Cage then hit the Alabama-Rama, picking up the victory, and the Number One Contendership.
((Hope you enjoyed this match, I will post my 3 uWe Promos soon.))
Chaos:
Justin Roberts the Rapture ring announcer stands inside of the Midsummer Massacre ring and addresses the crowd in an enthusiastic voice. The crowd begins to cheer aloud as Justin speaks clearly.
Justin Roberts: The following is a triple threat number one contenders match for the International Championship and it is scheduled for one fall!
The crowd breaks into loud cheers as a bright red pyro shoots out from the stage and "Dragula" by Rob Zombie hits the announce system. Chaos appears on the stage as the fans give him a standing ovation. Chaos eyes are bright as he smirks and pulls his shades down to peek at the fans with a smug look. The Toronto Native is wearing a black leather trenchcoat and black rayband shades. The monstrous superstar wears a red pair of wrestling trunks underneath the trenchcoat and black wrestling boots along with black elbow pads and knee pads. Victoria stands beside Chaos in a blood red tank top and a blood red mini skirt. Chaos and Victoria begin to storm down the ramp to loud cheers.
Justin Roberts: Introducing first from TORONTO, ONTARIO CANADA... Weighing in at 280 pounds... Being accompanied by Victoria, he is the Canadian Psycho... CHAOS!
Michael Cole: Chaos is a Toronto Native who has been touring with UWE since the beginning. Chaos has had his ups and downs and tonight he is looking to climb his way back to the top and gain a title shot.
Tazz: The winner of this match will either face Brandon Sorrow or Cthuhlu! We don't have a International champ at the moment because that title is vacated.
Michael Cole: Because of the trade involving Davy Blade. Some superstars are probably happy about that because without that trade many of them wouldn't have been able to compete in a tournament for such high stakes.
Chaos hits the hands of a few fans as he makes his way down the ramp. The fans watch in awe while Chaos stands near the ring steps and removes his shades... So Cal Val steps forward to take them, but Chaos mutters something. Chaos reaches out to a fan and hands the fan his shades and grins. The fan begins to cheer loudly while making the devil horns with their hand and they put Chaos over. The Canadian Psycho scales the apron in front of the crazed fans and gracefully flings himself over the top rope. Chaos lands on both of his feet inside of the ring. The fans are still cheering madly as Chaos removes his trenchcoat and tosses it to the ground for the ring attendant.
Michael Cole: Chaos is a former World Champion and Tag Champion! I'm safe to bet that he would like to add International Champion to his list of accomplishments and I'm also safe to bet that he will do whatever he can to win this match.
Tazz: Oh without a doubt Cole! Chaos has had some great matches with some of UWE's best such as Davy Blade, The Undertaker and the retired Danger!
Victoria stands beside Chaos and puts her arms around his waist and looks up at Chaos. Victoria stands back and holds Chaos' arm up as she points at him while putting him over in his home town. All of a sudden...
Warren Peace:
A voice is heard whispering “Ghetto Gospel” over the PA system. All of a sudden the fans pop even louder as “Store Bought Bones” by the Raconteurs blast from the speakers. Warren Peace steps on to the stage wearing a ghetto gospel “Who Want Some” t-shirt, a pair of black trunks with a cross on both legs and black wrestling boots with linking G’s on them. Warren reaches his hands to the sky as a row of white pyros explode in order down the ring ramp and quickly back up, once they reach the top again two giant pyros shot into the air. Warren lifts his right arm to his side and CJ De Luca walks out wearing a Ghetto Gospel half shirt, some blue jeans and a pair of black and blue sneaks. She grabs Warren by the arm and they both start down the ramp.
Justin: And his opponent, hailing from Philadelphia, PA. Weighing in at 225 lbs. Representing Ghetto Gospel and being accompanied to the ring by CJ De Luca, he is “God’s favorite” Warren Peace.
The crowd grows louder as Warren and De Luca slap hands with the fans that are close enough to reach as they past by. In the crowd reads a sign that reads: “Warren got screwed”.
Cole: Warren Peace and Brandon Sorrow put on one hell of a match last week. Sorrow pulled out a win and now faces Cthuhlu later tonight for the IN title.
Tazz: Yeah but you can bet Warren wants another shot at that title.
Cole: Well Tazz earlier today we saw some footage of what happened yesterday onside the uWe headquarters.
Tazz: Warren and StoneRoc made their way inside Destiny’s office and got into a little bit of a scuffle with the ministry. But tonight Warren will have to put all that behind him if he wants to win this match.
Cole: This is the first time Warren and Chaos have been in the same ring, what can either man do to gain an advantage?
Tazz: That’s a good question. If your Warren you want to use your speed on Chaos try to get him tired and then you make your move. Now if you’re Chaos, you want to play it cool don’t try to rush in on Warren let him get close and then use your strength to knock him out.
Warren enters the ring and helps CJ inside also. He removes his shirt and throws it into the crowd; two girls catch it and begin to argue about the item until it rips leaving both women happy. CJ gives Warren a good luck kiss and rolls out of the ring as Warren and Chaos stare each other down.
Jake Rifle:
Cole: Are next entrance is scheduled to be the newest member of the Ministry of Darkness, Jake Rifle.
Tazz: That’s right Cole, what a way to show Rapture he’s heading to the top by teaming up with our current world champion and beating both Hermanni Lindstrum, and his old time rival Stone Roc.
Cole: and it looks like its showing off, Tazz. Tonight the Ministry ‘higher power’ Destiny booked him in a number one contenders match versus the man fellow Ministry member Brandon Sorrow knocked out, Warren Peace.
Tazz: Let’s not forget Chaos though! This man has held more gold than most men here in uWe!
As the two announcers continue to discuss the card, the camera switches to backstage footage Jake is scene backstage in his Black colour spats, with a White coloured stripe down the side. He is hopping from foot to foot, pumping himself up for his match. Finally, Break Stuff by Limp Bizkit comes on with the slow guitar line. After only a few seconds the lyrics have begun and Jake has emerged from the backstage and onto the stage. Despite the booing, he poses for the cameras to flash, before walking down the ramp.
Its just one of those days
When you don't wanna wake up
Everything is fucked
Everybody sux
You don't really know why
But you want justify
Rippin' someone's head off
No human contact
And if you interact
Your life is on contract
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
It's just one of those days!!
"Making his way to the ring, from Edmonton Canada, weighing in at 231 pounds... He is the newest member of the Ministry of Darkness… JAKE RIFLE!"
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit
Lettin' shit slip
Or you'll be leavin with a fat lip
Its all about the he says she says bullshit
I think you better quit talkin that shit
(Punk, so come and get it)
Its just one of those days
Feelin' like a freight train
First one to complain
Leaves with a blood stain
Damn right I'm a maniac
You better watch your back
Cuz I'm fuckin' up your program
And if your stuck up
You just lucked up
Next in line to get fucked up
Your best bet is to stay away motherfucker
Its just one of those days!!
Cole: Do you think the fact that both Chaos and Warren have someone at ringside with them is an advantage?
Tazz: Let me tell you Cole, for some people it wont. But I know jake, and I think he’s got it covered. The guys got amazing ring sense, and he’ll be able to see stuff coming.
Cole: Don’t you think that’s a bit biased? Jake hasn’t been around that long, if your gonna talk about ring sense… Woulden’t the veteran and hometown hero Chaos have the edge?
By now Jake is midway down the ramp. He eyes Victoria, and than Chaos and finally Warren. Shrugging, he makes his way around to the stairs rather than sliding under the bottom rope like usual. He steps between the second rope and the top rope and into the ring. Chaos respectfully slides out of the ring, and talks with Victoria for a moment. But Warren and CJ hold their ground, as Jake approaches and talks some trash to the Ghetto Gospel member. The crowd responds to this with a roar of boo’s, shaking the building.
Cole: Y’know Tazz, I didn’t know it was possible, but I think the crowd may be booing more for Jake tonight than they usually do.
Tazz: That’s a true mark of a champion, Cole. Way back to when Danger was the champion, to now a days with the Undertaker, all the real talent gets booed. There are a few people who can shake it off and continue on though, and my boy Jake is one of them…
Cole: Speaking of the Deadman, stay tuned for out main event, we get to see one half of our tag team champions face off versus The Phenom for the heavyweight championship tonight!
Rifle had switched turnbuckles and taunted the crowd once again, but by now had stepped down and moved to his corner. All 3 men looked at each other and started talking trash, including Rifle making motions towards CJ. Warren looked ready to pounce and awaited the bell... but than another theme cut across the arena!
Ronnie Cage:
The eerie chord progression of Linkin Park's No More Sorrow leaves everyone in the arena wondering why Ronnie Cage's music is playing. After a few seconds the chord progression is joined by a set of power chords which come accompanied by a light beat and a lit up Titantron. The titantron shows images and clips of Ronnie Cage throwing his guitar onto someones head or hitting his trademark Alabama-rama. The music continues for a few seconds and then stops, all we hear is the beat, then suddenly the power chords come back stronger than before but the pyrotechnics that everyone is now expecting don't go off. Instead Ronnie Cage just walks out with his wife and manager Michelle Cage and a microphone in his hand while his wife holds a clip-board.
Cole: What on God's green earth is Ronnie Cage doing here? He's not scheduled to be in this match.
Tazz: Well girl-pants, if you quit babbling for just a second, maybe he'd tell us.
Ronnie: Cut mah music! Ah said cut mah damn music! Don't yew even think about starting that match without me! Someone made a mistake. In mah wife's hand is a contract signed by mahself and Destiny, stating that Ah would get a shot to be numba one contenda.
He looks at his wife and they both smirk. Ronnie sees Justin looking worried and about to introduce him.
Ronnie: Don't yew fuckin think about introducing me! These stupid Canadians aren't worthy enough to hear mah introduction!
Ronnie walks down to the ring with his wife, but this was different, he was not in the mood for fun and games. He exchanged the microphone for the clip-board and had his wife stay outside of the ring. She glared at Victoria and CJ. Ronnie walked up the steel steps keeping a close eye on Jake Rifle, who he knew to be a member of the Ministry, he cockily smiled because he knew the other two would be too cowardly to attack him. He stepped between the middle and top rope, still keeping an eye on Rifle. He walked up to to the ref and handed him the clip-board. While the ref was checking it over, Ronnie looked over his shoulder to see Warren Peace not too far behind him. So when the ref handed the clip-board back, nodded that it was all clear and turned his back to signal the bell to be rung. Ronnie instantly turned smacking Warren Peace in the head with the clip-board, and then dropping an elbow sliding the clip-board out of the ring with his feet. The bell rings and the battle begins.
Cole: Wow, Tazz, this triple threat is now a fatal four way and what a way to start it, Cage is just lucky that the ref didn't see that illegal move or he would've been out of here as quickly as he came in.
Tazz: Yeah, Cole, seeing Ronnie Cage in this match could definitely spice things up a bit.
Chaos:
The crowd is booing loudly as Ronnie Cage goes for the quick cover on Warren Peace. Michelle Cage claps and cheers for her man as the referee begins to count the quick pinfall attempt. Before the two count Chaos breaks the pinfall with a kick to the back of Ronnie Cage's head. Cage grabs his head and rolls down to his back and sits up. Chaos picks Cage up and places him in a quick side headlock. Jake Rifle and Warren Peace are busy exchanging shots with one another with the referee checking on them before rushing to Chaos who has Cage in a standing side headlock. Chaos begins to yell aloud.
Chaos: You wanna bad mouth my home country?
Chaos drops down to one knee and drives Cage's back into Chaos' left knee. The impact from the move causes Ronnie to roll down on the canvas before standing up. Chaos would move towards Cage with a flurry of open palm strikes and he begins to hammer away at Cage. Chaos steps back after several strikes and rushes towards Cage with a clothesline. Ronnie Cage ducks underneath the clothesline. Chaos flips around immeadiately and Cage kicks Chaos in the stomach. Chaos grabs his abdominal region and Chaos kicks Chaos in the head causing the Toronto native to fall backwards and through the ropes and onto the matt outside of the ring.
Michael Cole: Chaos is knocked out of the ring by Cage! For the folks watching at home Chaos cannot be counted out because this match is a fatal four way where there is no count outs, but wrestlers can be disqualified.
Tazz: They oughta be careful about what they do. Be careful about no getting caught. Kinda like Ronnie.
Meanwhile Jake Rifle and Warren Peace are working each other over with strikes. Peace kicks Jake in the stomach and Jake falls down to one knee. Warren is quick to drop down and take Rifle down with a quick firemens carry. Warren Peace is back up on his feet again as Rifle gets up too with one hand on hi back. Peace leaps at Rifle with a dropkick and Rifle collapses from the impact of the blow. Warren Peace utilizes Rifles down position to his advantage as he goes for the cover. The referee begins to count the pinning predicament.
Referee: One.. two..
Rifle kicks out. Warren Peace stands up and Rifle begins to stand up. Warren drops an axe handle on Rifles back. Warren is quick to follow up by lifting Jake up with a suplex and driving Jake into the ground with the suplex. Warren Peace goes for another cover and the referee begins to count the pinfall, but Jake kicks out at the two count. Peace turns to CJ De Luca who tells Peace to keep trying. Warren Peace stands up...
Michael Cole: Rifle kicked out. Warren Peace is trying to get the match over with it seems and steal the victory.
Meanwhile on the outside of the ring Chaos is getting up, but Ronnie Cage is on his tail as he dropkicks Chaos into the ring steps. Chaos grabs his back and lets out a loud grunt. Cage picks Chaos up and chops him across the chest before grabbing Chaos' hair and slamming him head first into the steel steps. Chaos grabs his face and tries to get up, but Cage follows up with an elbow to the face of Chaos. The vicious manuever causes Chaos to collapse. Victoria checks on Chaos while glaring at Cage. Victoria is eager to help Chaos stand up and get him back into the match, but is also cautious for he could get badly hurt. The crowd is cheering for Chaos who is standing up. Ronnie runs in Chaos' direction and grabs Chaos by the arm and head and drives Chaos into the ground with a swinging neckbreaker.
Michael Cole: Ronnie Cage is punishing Chaos. Cage badmouthed Canada and Chaos got defensive and now they're fighting on the outside..
Ronnie Cage grabs Chaos by the arm and picks him up. Chaos knees Cage in the stomach and screams aloud to the crowds surprise. Chaos continues with the knees before picking Cage up with a german suplex. Chaos drives Ronnie into the matt and the crowd cheers loudly. Chaos stands up and attempts to collect himself as Cage is down on the ground for now...
Jake Rifle:
Warren had been on the inside of the ring recovering for a moment when Chaos had begun the knee strikes, and eventually hit Ronnie with a German Suplex. Jake had made his way up to his knees, and as Warren turned to pick him onto his feet Jake punches Warren in the stomach. Warren is stunned, and Jake follows up with another two punches before getting back onto his feet. Warren is buckled over, and Jake wraps his hand around Warrens head and hits a DDT. Quickly, before Peace can react Jake has climbed up onto the top rope. He quickly jumps into the air and hits a leg drop off of the top rope, driving his leg across Warren’s neck. Quickly he goes for the pinfall but Warren kicks out at two. He tries again, and only gets another two. Frustrated he lifts Warren up and whips him into the ropes. Warren bounces off the ropes and goes to clothesline Jake, who jumps over him. Warren continues going, before connecting with a baseball slide to the outside of the ring! Ronnie Cage, who had just made it to his feet found himself laid out again.
Cole: Wow! Did you see that? I didn’t know Warren was that athletic.
Tazz: Cole, that’s because you’ve never been in the ring. If I was there I would’ve done the same thing, probably better too…
Cole: Whatever you say Tazz… I hadn’t seen him perform moves like that too often.
Tazz: Well, maybe if you paid more attention than you would see it, it’s that simple Cole…
The manoeuvre took a lot out of Warren, and Chaos was still standing strong. The Toronto native brought Warren to his feet and kicked him in the gut. He looked like he was going to put Warren into position for a Samoan Drop, but he was soon met by Jake Rifle who had made his way outside. Jake went to hit Chaos with a big right hand, but the veteran blocked it. Before Jake could throw another punch at Chaos, Chaos grabbed a hold of both Jake and Warren’s arms. He than preceded to Irish whip them, and they both smashed into the ringsteps and knocked them clear off. The crowd pops for this, and Chaos takes a minute to pump up the crowd. The roaring continues, but is soon turned into boos. As Chaos turns around, he gets knocked flat on his back by Ronnie Cage and his Van Zant kick.
Tazz: Hahah! That’s just like Ronnie… Let the others do the work and than knock out the last man standing.
Cole: And you condone that? It’s a cheap tactic! Maybe if he actually did the wrestling on his own for once, he could win some more matches…
Tazz: What are you talking about? Ronnie has one of the best records here on Rapture… He’s a true athlete, and Destiny knows that. That’s why she added him into this match.
Ronnie was quick to throw Chaos in the ring. He quickly locks in a Texas cloverleaf called ‘Southern Comfort’. Chaos moans in pain and reaches for the ropes, but he is too far away. Victoria gives out a yell to Chaos pleading him to get to the ropes, or break free of the hold. To this Ronnie just tightens the grip. After about another ten or fifteen seconds, Chaos begins to fade and his eyes get clouded over. The ref sees this and reaches for Chaos’s hand. He raises it to the air, and drops it. He repeats this twice, and when Chaos’s hand is raised for a final time, Jake slides under the bottom rope and charges at Ronnie, Spears the southern man right out of his sitting position, and effectively breaking the submission. The crowd gives mixed reaction, Jake had stopped Ronnie from winning but they knew better than to trust Jake. There mistrust is correct, and Jake than drops to the mat and hooks Chaos’s leg and looks to steal the win over the dazed man. But to the crowds surprise, and Jakes own surprise, Chaos kicked out at two! Quickly Jake got back to his feet and ran to the turnbuckle. Before he could figure out what he would’ve done though, Warren had managed to punch him from the apron. The two changed blows until Warren also grabbed a hold of Jake by his tights, and throws him off the turnbuckle and into the middle of the ring. Now with the 3 other men laid out, Warren has his pick of who to pin. He decides Ronnie is the best of the 3 and hooks both legs. The fan count with the ref, but all let out a gasp as they count 3 but the ref does not. He notices Ronnie’s foot on the bottom rope and a smirking Michelle Cage at ringside. CJ De Luca than steps off the apron and gives Mrs. Cage a look, which she does not take well. Michelle lays CJ out with a clothesline, and than turns to face the ring. Michelle doesn’t see Victoria coming however, and is soon knocked down to the floor with CJ as Victoria stands strong after clotheslining the southern lady. With all four men beginning to stir in the ring, anything could happen…
Warren Peace:
Warren stands up in shock that the match isn’t over he looks around and sees CJ knocked down outside the ring. He hops out and begins to argue with Victoria about what happened. She explains to Warren that it was Mrs. Cage who knocked her down; Warren shakes his head and turns back to enter the ring but instead is meet with a kick to the face by Chaos who has made it to his feet. Chaos then moves his attention over to Jake Rifle who is almost to his feet. Chaos delivers a stiff kick to the gut and hooks Jake neck in his arm he then quickly straighten his hips delivering a snap suplex. Chaos goes for the cover but manages a quick two much to the dislike of his home crowd. Chaos sees Ronnie on his knees and quickly moves in with a kick to the head knocking Cage outside the ring. Warren stands to his feet outside the ring and sees Cage lying there like a gift from god, Warren begins to sends stomps to Ronnie’s chest and gut as Chaos mounts Jake and starts to deliver shots to his forehead. As Warren beats away on Ronnie, Michelle begins to tiptoe behind him ready to sneak God’s Favorite. Mrs. Cage gets within a few inches of Warren and goes for a low blow. Warren watching Michelle the whole time on the Titantron catches her hand as she is about to land and pulls her off her knees by her hair. He then looks to the crowd to see what he should do; hearing the crowd cheer Warren knows what he must do. Warren picks Michelle up and drapes her over his shoulder in a crucifix position, he then lifts her into the air ready to strike with the Crucifix Bomb but Ronnie delivers a low blow that sends Warren to his knees. Meanwhile, Chaos is in the ring still beating the hell out of Jake Ronnie makes his way back into the ring. Chaos isn’t paying attention to Ronnie as he is to busy stomping on Jake, Cage quickly hits Chaos in the back of the head with the Van Zant. Chaos falls to the mat and Ronnie goes for the cover. 1…2… CJ De Luca pulls the ref out of the ring. As she explains herself to the ref Warren makes it back in the ring and is now semi-standing behind Ronnie Cage as Cage turns around Warren scoops him up and plants him with a Hurricanrana Warren holds on to Cage’s neck and rolls over so that his back is on the mat. Warren then hooks his right shin under Cage’s neck and his left leg across his shoulder, Warren then grabs Cage’s head and pulls down on it hooking in the Sin Stealer. The ref not knowing if it is a legal hold or not drops to is knees and begins to ask if the Southern Superstar will submit.
Tazz: I think that is an illegal choke.
Cole: Well if the ref doesn’t call it, then it’s legal.
Tazz: Oh no Warren better watch out!
Inside the ring Jake gives Warren a stomp to the face, which forces him to break the hold. Jake then picks Ronnie up on his feet and hits with the Panicstruck knocking Ronnie clean out. Jake hooks the leg for the pin 1…2… Warren breaks up the count with a last minute dive on top of Jake. Warren then makes it to his feet but Chaos picks him into the air and nails the Taste of Chaos. Chaos goes for the cover but only gets a two count before Jake breaks it up with a kick to the ribs. Chaos only manages to get to one knee before Jake hits him with the Panicstruck knocking Chaos to the mat just as he did Cage. Jake goes for the cover 1…2… before the ref hand can touch the canvas Ronnie Cage managed to break up the count by pulling Chaos by the leg from under Jake. Ronnie is now standing up waiting for Jake to turn around as soon as he does Cage turns off Jake’s lights with a Van Zant that damn near knocks Jake’s head in to the crowd. Before Cage can make a pin Warren is on his feet and is now waiting for him to turn around. Tired of waiting Warren spins Cage around and brings him down with an arm drag Warren holds on and locks in the Confession.
Cole: Cage is in trouble. Chaos and Jake are both down in the ring.
Tazz: It’s only a matter of time, before Cage will have to tap or get his arm ripped from his body.
Warren tightens the move as the crowd’s cheers drown out Ronnie’s cries of pain. As Peace pulls back harder and harder Ronnie’s arm begins to hurt more and more. He can feel the muscle in his shoulder beginning to grow weak and it feels like it about to tear apart from the bone. Ronnie knowing what he has to do starts to slowly crawl towards the rope, inch-by-inch he crawls as the pain jolts through his body. As he gets within a hand reach of the ropes Warren rolls backwards and now is back at the center of the ring. Ronnie can finally take no more and lifts his hand ready to tap, right before his hand reaches the mat Chaos dives in and breaks up the hold.
Tazz: Oh man. Chaos just saved this match for himself, Ronnie was this close to tapping.
Cole: Chaos got right in there and kept this match going. But has the damage already been done to Ronnie is he now the weak man of the match?
Ronnie Cage
Chaos makes it quickly back to his feet. Warren, now furious because he saw Ronnie's hand about to tap, jumps onto his feet to meet the Canadian Psycho. He shoves Chaos, but the Toronto native does not like to be shoved so he steps towards Peace to return the shove, but Warren quickly hits Chaos with a snap suplex. He then mounts Chaos delivering five huge powerful punches to Chaos' head with each hand. In the meantime, Rifle starts to stir, he grabs his head after the massive Van Zant, but doesn't let it slow him down. He sees Ronnie still laying on the ground, conscious, but trying desperately to find the energy to get up. Rifle pulls Ronnie as far away from the ropes as he can, he then reaches around Ronnie's neck and locks his hands together pulling back and applying a Camel Clutch. But Jake is hit with a dropkick to the head from Chaos after Warren Peace reversed an Irish Whip. Ronnie takes advantage and rolls out of the ring to try and recuperate. Chaos gets to his feet, but before he can turn around, Peace runs up behind him, jumps and grabs Chaos' face planting it into the mat with a bulldog. He goes for then pin. The ref counts: One! Two! Chaos kicks out. Peace picks Chaos up off the mat, but Chaos quickly hits him in the head with an elbow strike, then follows it up with another, then another. Warren peace stumbles back, Chaos races backwards towards the ropes, using them to propel himself towards God's Favourite and hitting him in the face with a running big boot. But as he turns around he is met by a spear from Jake Rifle. Rifle looks around to see where Cage is, but cannot seem to find him, not wanting to waste his time, he alternates, stomping on Peace, then on Chaos, and back again. Ronnie now seizing his opportunity, slides into the ring as quietly as he can. He starts to creep up behind Rifle, but Rifle whirls around after seeing Ronnie on the Titantron and lunges. Ronnie however, grabs both of Jake's arms and holds them down as he connects with a vicious headbutt. But Ronnie doesn't let Rifle drop to the floor, he connects with another headbutt, harder than the first. This time he drops Rifle and shakes off the slight headache he undoubtedly just caused himself.
Cole: Wow, looks like Cage has recovered from that beating he took earlier, eh Tazz?
Tazz: Cole, was that an attempt at a Canadian joke? You disgust me! As far as Ronnie Cage goes, he has a lot more stamina than most would expect. He hides it, that's what makes him so dangerous, he'll make you think he's down, or weak, but when you least expect it he'll turn the tables with an enormous burst of energy.
Cage makes his way over to Chaos. Attempting to ridicule the Toronto native in his own hometown. He applies a front face lock on Chaos and throws his near arm across his shoulders, bends his knees, grabs Chaos' tights, and lifts him straight up into the air. Ronnie lets the blood flow to Chaos' head as the sound of Michelle Cage shouting "Come on baby!" can be heard. Ronnie lands a brainbuster, which he hopes is enough to win him the match. Ronnie goes for the quick cover. The referee counts: One! Two! But the pin is broken up by an elbow drop from Peace. God's Favourite leaves Chaos on the ground, but picks Ronnie up and Irish Whips him to the corner, Peace follows it up with a shoulder thrust. Warren pulls Cage out of the corner and whips him towards the other side of the ring, but no sooner had he done that, Cage is sent flying backwards into Peace knocking him into the corner where Cage had just lay.
Cole: What an incredibly tactful missile dropkick from Jake Rifle, you can tell he has his head in the game.
Tazz: Sure Cole, he's looking to make sure that if by some chance Brandon doesn't win the International Title, he can pick up the slack and bring a second title to the Ministry of Darkness.
As Ronnie uses the ropes to pull himself to his feet, he is met by a clothesline by Chaos, sending him out of the ring. Michelle rushes to his aid, but is stopped by CJ who grabs her by the hair and yanks her away from her husband. Warren Peace starts to stir in the corner. Meanwhile Chaos and Jake Rifle are trading rights and lefts. Rifle finally manages to whip Chaos to the ropes, and on his return, Rifle grabs him by the neck and lands a swinging neckbreaker. He then kicks Chaos several times in the ribs, rolling him under the bottom rope and onto the hard floor. It doesn't look like he'll be up very soon. Warren Peace kneels in corner and makes a cross with his hand, with a big cheesy grin on his face, he's now ready to take on the Ministry's newest recruit. He charges at full speed towards Rifle, who smirks and simply steps out of the way just as Peace dives to make his "Damnation Spear", instead Peace dives through the ropes colliding with the large metal barrier outside the ring. Rifle looks on as he sees Chaos out cold and Peace slumped against cold metal. He smirks, not being able to account for Cage, he assumes that he is now charging towards him. Jake turns to see that he's right and meets Satan's Superior with a clothesline, both men are instantly on their feet again as Ronnie is hit with another clothesline, this happens a third and final time. After this, Rifle picks Ronnie up, takes a few steps back while Ronnie is still a little groggy, then runs towards him, jumps in the air, hooking his head and landing a Tornado DDT in the middle of the ring. He makes a quick check to see if either Peace or Chaos are moving, and to his relief, neither is moving. So he rushes back to Ronnie, who now has rolled onto his back. Rifle picks up both of Cage's legs and steps through them, wrapping both of them around his own leg. He then turns Cage over onto his belly and crouches backwards applying pressure with his now locked in sharpshooter. The referee checks on Cage to see if he's willing to tap out, but he refuses. Rifle pulls Cage even further away from the ropes and tightens his hold. But Ronnie still refuses to tap out. All of a sudden Cage belts out with all his might.
Ronnie:NOW YEW MOTHERFUCKER!!!
Michelle Cage jumps up and down outside the ring flailing her arms like a mad women. Rifle smirks because he thinks Cage is talking to him. All of a sudden, a modified version of Neil Young's Southern Man bellows throughout the arena as the roof to the Rogers Centre makes a large noise and now starts to slide open. Everyone in the arena including Jake Rifle and the referee are now staring upwards. Ronnie smirks, as his plan worked. Jake in fact is so distracted that he drops the hold and Ronnie's legs. Ronnie quickly rolls over and pulls his knees into his chest. Just as Jake realizes what he'd done, Ronnie kicks Rifle in the back of both knees causing him to fall. Ronnie uses the ropes to get to his feet. Out of the corner of his eye he sees Chaos climbing onto the mat, Satan's Superior rushes over and kicks him in the ribs knocking him off the mat. Warren Peace has now managed to pull himself into the ring, he's still a little dazed, so Ronnie rushes over to him and tosses him over the top rope. Finally Rifle runs towards him for a clothesline, but Ronnie counters it grabbing rifle in a full nelson. He looks right and checks on Warren Peace, he looks left and checks on Chaos, and then plants Jake Rifle's face straight into the mat.
Cole: I am in shock, Tazz. I honestly don't know what to say.
Tazz: That roof opening was one smart move. I'll give you that, Cole. That must be what Cage was paying the man for earlier tonight.
Cole: But Ronnie was just in what looked like a very painful sharpshooter. How could he possibly have the energy to kick Rifle in both legs. Get up so quickly, knock down Chaos, throw Warren Peace out of the ring, and then, land the Alabama-rama on Rifle. I just don't get it, Tazz.
Tazz: Like I said earlier, Cole. Ronnie Cage has a lot more stamina than most would expect. That move probably didn't hurt as much as he let on. He was absorbing the moves and showing pain so that no one would expect this.
End
OOC: Will Ronnie make the pin and win the match, will Jake Rifle kick out, or will one of the other two rush in to make the save and continue this grueling match. You'll all know before I do. Hope you enjoyed the read. I'll have my last promo out within a day or two.

Match Summary and Result
International Title #1 Contenders
Warren Peace vs. Jake Rifle vs. Chaos vs. Ronnie Cage
Up next was the Number One Contendership Match for the UWE International Title. All four men fought hard, giving it their all to earn that prestigious shot. The match became an all out brawl, as all four men did their best to weaken the other three. The brawl especially escalated between Jake Rifle and Warren Peace. The two began to beat on each other viciously, hoping to permanently injure the other. However, all of their hammering away at each other distracted them from one Mr. Ronnie Cage. Cage would begin to pummel away at the Canadian Psycho, much to the dismay of the fans. On the outside, Jake Rifle began to get an advantage over Warren Peace. Rifle began to back him up the entrance ramp. However, Warren gained a quick advantage with a Clothesline. Warren then grabbed hold of Rifle, until the newest member of the Ministry hit a Low Blow. Rifle then leveled him with a Panicstruck, and dragged him to the back. Cage and Chaos all alone, Cage took advantage with a Low Blow of his own, out of sight of the official of course. Cage then hit the Alabama-Rama, picking up the victory, and the Number One Contendership.
