The arena sits quietly in anticipation of the main event. Most eyes are on the space above the ring. That empty space gets smaller as an eight-sided cage is lowered, boards on the four diagonal sides rigged with explosive devices behind them. The destructive structure known only as the Dragon's Dungeon ominously creeps down, the announce crew getting ready to call the match. Everyone still gazes at the structure, save for the referee and the ring announcer who converse with one another. Business as usual in EVPW is this, this calm before the storm, before the short silence is broken by some words from the commentators.
JP: "Well, before we get started with the main event for tonight, let's shill some product!"
Ray: "Yes, we'd like to thank Poisonblack for 'Nothing Else Remains', the theme song for End of Innocence."
"And tonight's spectacle has also been brought to you by Big Lots: Brand names, closeout prices!"
The lights in The Cow Palace turn off as the ButcherTron is turned on. A dark grey screen slowly fades into a picture of Crazy Boy walking down the ramp. "18 And Life" by Skid Row begins playing in the background as the story leading up to this showdown display on the giant screen.
The screen fades out before showing the man who answered the open challenge.
The ButcherTron's display goes black and the lights come back on in the arena. The crowd cheers as they are ready to see Crazy Boy destroy Metal Dragon. The spectators look around the ring, seeing weapons placed around the ring. Kendo sticks, cheese graters, chairs, coils of barbed wire, among other things are strewn around the ring. Lizzie stands up at the timekeeper's table, ready to begin the last hurrah of the night.
Lizzie: "The following contest is the main event of the night!"
The referee slides into the ring, ropes removed from the squared circle and four doors on the octagon opened, one on each side that is parallel with the ring.
"It is the first-ever Dragon's Dungeon Match! In this match, the two competitors battle in an eight-sided cage, weapons strewn around the ring. The cage itself is a weapon, as the four sides you see on the corners of the ring are indeed rigged with explosives! The only way to win is to incapacitate your opponent for ten seconds, and the count may be broken by any movement or response from the fallen competitor! This match is also a winner-take-all for both the Dragon's Rage and the Television Championships!"
High stakes and rules restated to the crowd, cheering is heard as the first competitor is awaited. "Black Crow On A Tombstone" by Satyricon hits the PA after a few seconds, the opening riff giving time for the crowd to breathe in. As soon as the main riff begins, the booing does as well. Metal Dragon walks straight into the fog of jeering, standing at the beginning of the aisle. He wears black denim pants and a plain white t-shirt with black and white wrestling shoes on his feet. A black leather jacket covers his arms and conceals some of his title, while aviator shades cover his eyes. Dragon reaches behind himself and removes the belt from his waist, then grips it with both hands and raises it in the air. A loud bang is heard as red fireworks explode from the roof and rain down behind the champion as he begins walking, two more rounds of the decorative explosives raining at the beginning of the entranceway after the first. MD lowers his belt and throws his over his left shoulder as he walks toward the ring.
"Introducing first, from Nashville, Tennessee, standing six feet tall and weighing 220 pounds, he is the EVPW Dragon's Rage Champion... Ladies and gentlemen, this is Metal Dragon!"
"There's Saturday Night Knockout's champion, Metal Dragon. Believe that he's focused as ever and knows exactly what he's getting into."
"He's a sick and beautiful man, Jimmy. It's gonna be great to call this match, two guys that we haven't commentated at once."
"Two absolutely insane wrestlers as well. You've gotta be sick to come up with something like this, and you've gotta be insane to participate in it."
"So I'm basically going to throw up just as much as I did during the Carson and Vlad match a couple weeks ago?"
"You very well might, Ray. Maybe someone's limb will get blown off and land right in front of you, like..."
JP slaps the table in front of Ray with his hand. "PLOP!"
"OKAY, I GET IT, STOP!" *whimpers*
The champion has almost reached the ring now, gazing up at the structure he innovated, looking just as good as he'd envisioned. Metal Dragon begins a lap around the Dragon's Dungeon, counter-clockwise from the perspective of the entrance aisle. The champion kicks weapons out of the way as he makes sure every corner of his brainchild looks the same.
"He's coming this way! Dragon! Dragon! I love you!"
Ray White outstretches his hand to attempt to touch MD, maybe get a high-five, anything. The right sleeve of Dragon's jacket is grazed as MD's focus on the Dungeon is broken. The Dragon's Rage Champion turns toward Ray and swings his arm up to strike White on the forearm, slapping his arm away before continuing his walk. The referee approaches Metal Dragon and asks for his jacket, belt, and sunglasses. MD removes his shades first and turns them around, then puts them on the referee's face. He then puts the Dragon's Rage title over the official's right shoulder. The ref now the champ's personal mannequin, MD removes his jacket and puts it over the ref's head before going on the final leg of his walk. Dragon walks past the final side of the ring that he hasn't seen yet, finally finished soaking in the atmosphere that he himself created. The figurehead of Saturday Nights picks up a kendo stick from the arena floor and throws it into the cage, then slides into the structure himself. MD gets up on the canvas and picks up the kendo stick, holding it tightly in his left hand as he waits for the man he plans to hit with it.
"There is the champion, probably the best we've ever seen him."
"Send in the clown. Send in Crazy Boy. It's killing time, JP."

The lights in The Cow Palace turn off as the ButcherTron is turned on. A dark grey screen slowly fades into a picture of Crazy Boy walking down the ramp. "18 And Life" by Skid Row begins playing in the background as the story leading up to this showdown display on the giant screen.
Porter: "Ladies and gentlemen, the NEW EVPW Dragon's Rage Champion, Metal Dragon!"
"Black Crow on a Tombstone" by Satyricon begins playing over the PA system as the crowd begins booing heavily. The song plays for a small length of time, but MD doesn't come out yet. The vocals then finally begin and out comes the new top dog of Saturday Night Knockout. The belt on his right shoulder shines as it precedes the black Tool shirt and blue jeans worn by the champion. Dragon grips a microphone in his right hand as he walks down the ramp, irritated by the jeers still showering him.
Harry: "And there's the new disgrace to our show. It's bad enough that two people who never wrestled on Knockout before it came to EVPW were fighting for that gold, and it's completely disgusting that this specific man got it in the fashion that he did!"
Jenna: "You can't let distractions beat you like that, Harry. I personally welcome our new champion and think he's the best man to be it."
MD slides into the ring and glares at Andrew Porter, clear that he wants the ring announcer to get out of the ring. Andrew obliges and slides out quickly.
(skipping to MD's speech)
MD: "Before Killing Grounds, I put a sign-up sheet for an opponent to face me on that Pay-Per-View. Look at how many signatures are on it! NONE! While that has an upside, being that Steven Davis was then able to put me into the match for this belt over my shoulder, it's a testament to the cowardice of the SNK roster. I don't see myself losing this title any time soon, because the people in the back... they're wusses. Tripp, Darnez FC, Daniel Throne, The Psycho Kid, Grockadoc, and the rest of the lot, how does it fucking feel to know that Amanda Hallsworth probably has bigger nuts than all of you? Not good to hear, is it?"
(skip)
Booing me, making cute little signs to insult me, talking about how I suck, all of that is simply running away from the fact that I'm better than whatever goody-two-shoes hero you're currently obsessed with."
More booing comes as MD collects the rest of his words. He scratches his chin for a second before continuing.
"If there is someone who thinks they can shut me up, who thinks they can prove me wrong, please come out so I can set you straight."

The screen fades out before showing the man who answered the open challenge.
Coming in to focus an all too familiar figure is recognized dressed casually in blue jeans and an old cardigan. As the cheers and noise begin to start elevate to a high pitch fever once the wrestler is recognized by the audience as the one and only Crazy Boy.
Crazy Boy: "As for not putting my name down on some silly list for a match vs yourself. Well unlike you who opted for the easy way out ... and the easier match. I put my name forth for an actual challenge. A six man dictators rules match. Not the Dragons Rage, I must admit .. but the television title."
"Because quite frankly who ever earns the television title can honestly say .. no no no .. BRAG .. that they won a proper title. Cause unlike the Dragons Rage its not only the Saturday Roster .. Its the whole damn EVPW roster. So who is the better one on the roster ? someone who wimps out for a Dragons Rage title .. or someone who takes on the best that EVPW has to offer in a dictators rules match for the television title?"
The camera cuts to MD.
"So who IS the better one on the roster, you rude fucker? How about you take your title shot and use it against ME at End of Innocence?"
MD and CB continue to glare at each other, the Dragon's Rage Champion cracking a smile as he thinks of the match type he has up his sleeve.
"I even know what kinda match I want. It's called a Dragon's Dungeon Match, something I thought up in my spare time. Eight-sided cage, you win by knockout only. And that's not all, not only are the doors open and weapons are scattered outside, the cage wall itself is the most deadly weapon in the match, as it explodes!"
The two men glare at each other in the ring as the their voices play over them.
"Do you want to step up and fight me in a match that could very well cause you permanent injuries, or do you want to wimp out in a fashion way worse than what you're accusing me of?"
By the time the smoke clears from whipping his ass one side of the ring to the other you can guaran-damn-tee come End Of Innocence it will be you on the receiving end of an ass whooping like you could not believe. That can be written in stone ... your ass is next cause the number one contender is going to be cashed in. Your match ... Your title ...
MD defiantly holds his title in the air to show that while he isn't the crowd favorite, he's still the man. "The Wicker Man" hits the PA again as CB backtracks up the aisle, the champion still holding his belt in the air. Both men keep their eyes fixated on the other as the distance between them gradually increases.
Harry: "It's official! End of Innocence, one of these guys is gonna be carted out at the end of the event with God knows what injuries!"
Jenna: "And it's gonna be that cocky loudmouth Crazy Boy, I am completely sure of it."
Crazy Boy: "As for not putting my name down on some silly list for a match vs yourself. Well unlike you who opted for the easy way out ... and the easier match.
