Fatal 4 Way Ascension Match

[Dominik Santiago]

The camera shifts from the announce table where the commentary team is buzzing to the ring. Inside the squared hell is a ladder set in the middle of the ring. As Lizzie Morna gets prepared to address the spectators of the sold out RaboBank Arena, the ring crew remove the ropes and replace them with barbed wire.

:Lizzie Morna:
"The following contest is the first of 3 Singles Championship Matches. This is the Television Title Barbed Wire Ascension Match. The superstar that hangs the T.V. Championship on the hook above will be the winner!"

-Almost as if on cue, the Butcher-Tron begins to flicker. The feed opens up and it shows a hooded character standing in front of a hook. The character grabs the hook by its sharp tip before speaking in a loud maniacal tone. -

"Ladies and Gentlemen tonight you are privileged to see four men battle to the bitter end over one shiny object. Those barbed wires around the ring aren't just for show, they are the enforcers and they will inflict pain on any and every competitor they choose to.

Egos will collide, 3 will be shattered but one will live on in prosperity.

For tonight 1 man will ascend to the top, literally.

And that one man is not Crazy Boy, nor is it Tripp and nor will it be Darnez FC.

Tonight, that man will walk in with that belt but that's not the only thing he'll be leaving out with. I'm taking the bloody remains of three men back with me. "

-The character flips the hood back revealing himself to be none other than Dominik Santiago. -

"Because I'm Dominik Santiago Motherfuckas!"

-The champion grabs the hook and shoves it forward. The hook smashes into the camera lens, breaking up the feed. Before the Butcher-Tron goes completely black, the lights around the arena begin to dimmer. "Payback" by Slayer suddenly blasts on the speakers and plays loudly around the arena causing the entire building to go into state of sheer pandemonium.

As the tune continues to play over the P.A. system a small amount of pyro arises on the entrance stage while the spotlight in the middle of the ring advances up the ramp toward the stage. The spotlight slightly illuminates the arena confined in darkness. The curtains are suddenly pushed aside before the behemoth of a champion emerges.

The Television Champion, holding his trusty Thumbtack Chair, stands in the middle of the stage while the pyro shoots up over top of his head. After the pyro dies down, Dominik slowly marches down the ramp while his chair slides up against the steel.-

:Lizzie Morna:
"Ladies and Gentlemen introducing first, hailing from Hollywood California and weighing in at 225 pounds, he is the Television Champion of the World... The Hardkore Assassin... DOMINIK SANTIAGO!!!"

-The champion stops at the middle of the ramp before removing his championship from his waist. Santiago places the title in his free hand before spreading his arms out with Tacky pointing slightly to the side and the T.V. title scintillating in the dark. The champion then raises his head to the heavens causing golden fireworks to erupt in back of him. When then fireworks die down, the champion drapes his championship across his shoulder and places his chair back down to his side before continuing his strut down to the ring.-

You need to take a closer look at me
Cause I was born to be the thorn in your side
No matter what you think you're gonna see
You never wanted this barrage of fucking pride
You don't want none of me

You've got a fucking catheter in your brain
Pissing your common sense away
When you draw first blood you can't stop this fight
For my own piece of mind - I'm going to
Tear your fucking eyes out
Rip your fucking flesh off
Beat you till you're just a fucking lifeless carcass
Fuck you and your progress
Watch me fucking regress
You were meant to take the fall - now you're nothing
Payback's a bitch motherfucker


:Ray White:
"SNK's champ is focused, he's competed in a match of this similarity before but he didn't win it. Could the same fate be in his future?"

:Jimmy Pate:
"The champion has a 75% chance of losing his belt and a 25% chance of winning. The odds aren't in his favor but I've seen superstars come out victorious in worse situations. Dominik has to take advantage of his opponent's mistakes and capitalize on every opportunity he can. Diligence, intelligence and quickness is key in this match!"

-The champion marches around the ring and begins formulating plans in his mind before placing his Thumbtack Chair near the timekeeper's table. The champ the rolls into the rind under the barbed wire before springing up to his feet. The champion grabs one of the ladder's steps before lifting his head up and gazing at the hook which hovers about 12 or 15 feet above him.

Dominik slowly removes his championship and hands it to the referee as the lights return to their normal setting. The champ approaches the barbed wire and slowly rubs his palm against it, familiarizing himself with the feeling before backing back up into the center of the ring. The champion slightly begins to crouch and as his theme tune comes to an abrupt end he anticipates the arrival of one of his opponents.-

[Darnez FC]

The fans within the arena are red hot, cheering, yelling, and just downright making noise, as they wait in anticipation for the arrival of one of Dominik's opponents. The air is simply electric, not one fan is sitting down, unless they're passed out from drinking, which some of the older fans are, but they are the only exceptions. Suddenly, without warning, the lights dim out, a blue spotlight hits the roof, and "Gold Medal" by Trademarc hits the speakers, drawing the ire of half of the crowd, and the respectful cheers of the other half. The fans crank their necks upward, so that they may see Darnez FC descend into the Ascension match on his platform. As the crowd makes noise, the platform on which the Streak Ender normally stands upon during his entrance begins to lower, forever downward into the barb wire entangled ring.

Lizzie Morna:
"Introducing next, he is one of the challengers. He stands at six feet seven inches tall, and weighs in at two hundred and fifty two pounds. He hails from PERTH...AUSTRALIA! He is the Streak Ender, The Self Proclaimed Future of EVPW and a member of the Kure, he is...DARNEZ FC!!"

Ray White:
"Yes! Finally! After almost a month, Darnez is back within my sights! What a great night this is!"

Jimmy Pate:
"Well it could turn into a abysmal night if that body of Darnez FC was torn to shreds by that Barb Wire"

Ray White:
"No! Don't say that! Darnez will remain practically unharmed!"

Jimmy Pate:
"I very much doubt that Ray, first off, hes in a match with Dominik Santiago, the Hardcore Assassin, so pain is already on the cards for Darnez. Secondly, the match is a Barb Wire Ascension match, which basically means that it'll be alot easier to have the skin ripped from your body"

Ray White:
"Ah, but you forget JP, both members of the Kure are in this match, giving both members some form of security. And i doubt Crazy Boy and Dominik will team up, as they are the worst of enemies!"

Jimmy Pate:
"You do have a point there Ray"

Ray White:
"I always have a point JP, now shoosh, i'm trying to watch Darnez' entrance"

I'm focused
Dead up
Don't get up, or never let up
Ferocious
I'm fed up
Dismissing the competition
it's hopeless,
I'll trash their ambition
Listen...
Ya'll want a class on tradition
On one condition
Forget the best of the century
Ya'll talk about the best of all-time
you better mention me
Essentially, I'm the best there's ever gonna be
I hold my ground
You'll never take it from under me
And up under me, it's gonna be trouble
Hit you so many times,
you see triple and double,
instead of one of me
I got more heart, more ways
to tear you, apart
Lay you down early on
Or maybe in the later round
It's no different to me
You tap out, cash out,
or simply pass out, to breathe
Cause you face down... really
And barely alive, cause I'm an animal inside
Hear me


The platform has now reached an altitude level where the figure of Darnez FC is clearly visible. He is wearing his usual ring attire, and appears to be wielding some form of object. A zoom in reveals that the object is a "Purge Stick", an object which the other Kure member, Tripp, bought for the group a couple of weeks ago. Darnez has a tight grip around the end of the stick, which gleams in the blue light of the spotlight. The structure on which the Master of the Rant is standing on begins to descend faster toward the ring mat, possibly so that the entrance itself doesn't take up too much time. The platform reaches an elevation level of eighteen feet above the ring before it suddenly stops, not causing the occupant any form of stress whatsoever, as if the move was planned. Darnez peers downward, eye-balling Dominik, before shaking his head from side to side and mouthing "I ain't coming down there pricko", a phrase that draws some boos from the crowd, with the boos being directed at the cowardice of the normally egotistical Streak Ender. The lights, again, without prior warning, come back to life, giving the fans a true look at what is transpiring in the ring so far.

Ray White:
"Aha! Darnez is again using his brain in the war against his opponents, opting to not join the ring with Santiago until the bout is officially underway"

Jimmy Pate:
"I gotta agree with you Ray, this is a smart move, especially from someone who is suffering from Amnesia"

"Gold Medal" leaves the arena speakers, allowing for another participant to enter the match.

TBC Crazy Boy/Tripp

[-Jack Noble-]

With the crowd cheering and waiting for the arrival of one of the two remaning superstars of the match, the black curtain gets pushed aside. A figure of a man appears as his dreadlocks roll down his body, everyone obviously knows who this is. Tripp tilts his head up and brings the microphone to his lips as if he was about to speak.

"Ahem. Mister FC.. did I not remind you enough to let everyone know about my 'incedent'?"

Darnez cocks an eyebrow before his mouth almost hits the ring mat. He then yells out "sorry" as an appology for whatever Tripp wanted him to do.

"Well no matter, I'll just inform everyone now.. you see, I'm not going to take part in this match here, tonight. No, no, I'm simply here to be back up for Darnez. I don't want your silly little TV title, its of no use to me, and should go to a man that actually deserves it and wasn't just given to him.. ergo Darnez. So I figured it'd just be fair for him to have a manager in this match. So uhhh.. if there arent any objections... "

Tripp then lowers the microphone a bit, waiting to see if anyone says anything back to him. An awkward silence falls upon the arena before Tripp breaks the silence, as he usually does.

"Well it's settled then.."

The Rated HXC Superstar drops the microphone before walking down to the ring, standing in Darnez FC's corner.

((OOC: Yeah, busy this week.. so I figured thisll be cool.. if not just make me a commentator for the match or somehting.. just make sure i interfere xD))

[Dominik Santiago]

-Darnez stares at Tripp with a small bit of nostalgia before cracking a confident smile as the ICW Icon, the Rated HXC superstar takes a seat at the announce table and puts on the empty headset. As Darnez turns his attention back to the ring, the canvas suddenly shifts before the Television Champion comes flying over the top barbed wire and soars through the air. The champion crashes straight into the Australian sending him staggering back before collapsing backward on the nearby crowd barrier. As Dominik springs to his feet after a brisk sequence of events, the referee signals for the bell.-

DING! DING! DING!

:Jimmy Pate:
"Dominik sure as hell isn't gonna wait for Crazyboy, he's taking the fight straight to Darnez!

:Ray White:
"I think Dominik should have paced himself. Unlike Darnez, he isn't 100%. His aggressiveness will bite him on the ass like a mad dog with rabies!"

:Tripp:
"Exactly. Darnez will capitalize and then he'll bring home gold for The Kure! "

-Dominik marches to a somewhat lethargic Darnez with both a pep in his step and purpose. The champion angrily snatches Darnez FC by his long locks before pulling him off the security wall. The champion tightly clenches his teeth before turning his adversary over so that he faces the barrier. The champion then pulls Darnez's head back before slightly stepping back himself. The aggressive champ then pulls forward, driving FC and all his momentum head first into the security wall.

The impulse from the blow causes a groggy FC to back pedal before loosing his footing and tumbling over on his side. The King of the Rant begins demonstrating some bit of cowardice as he begins crawling onto the entrance ramp. As the champion advances to his location, Darnez immediately picks up the pace as he rises to his feet.

The challenger turns to Dominik as he moves up the ramp before extending both his arms out once again exhibiting his lack of bravery. The "Hardkore Assassin" doesn't buy Darnez's act as he quickly lifts his leg before maliciously driving his size 13 Chuck Taylor's into the gut of his dastardly foe. Saliva sputters from Darnez's mouth while his jaw simultaneously drops. The champion assists Darnez with his gaping problem as he quickly grapples around Darnez's head before taking his elbow under and up, driving it viciously into the chin of FC.-

Darnez's eyes slightly roll in the back of his head as the European Uppercut renders him dazed and confused. The champion, pugnacious by nature, places his left hand on the forehead of his opponent before lifting his right and driving it forward, smashing it into the forehead of the Streak Ender. The recent blast, a stiff punch finally causes Darnez to reach the stage before he falls backwards and trips through the curtains. As FC once again slithers away in hope of gaining some distance from his opposition, the champion follows him, pushing the curtains aside.

:Jimmy Pate:
"The action has traveled backstage, all hell is about to break loose folks so buckle your seat-belts for the ride!"


-As the champion pushes through curtains he scans the area in search of his prey but he doesn't see Darnez anywhere. As Dominik moves a few steps forward, Darnez skulks up behind him out of the darkness of the aisle. In hopes of exacting some retribution, Darnez charges at his adversary before lifting his arm in the air and clubbing Dom over the back of his neck with his forearm. The champion, caught off guard by the sneak attack, kneels down slightly to the side.

As Dom desperately tries to shake the cobwebs so he can recapture the momentum, Darnez suddenly moves in for the kill like a shark smelling blood in the water. The ever opportunistic FC hastily seizes Santiago by his hair before pulling him downward and kneeling to one knee simultaneously, driving Santiago's good looks into his knee cap.

The knee-facebuster rocks Santiago's world as it coerces him into a series of unsteady movements. The champion finally lurches backward before he is caught by the side of an open dumpster. The champion holds his nose while FC allows an arrogant, smug like grin to escape his lips. FC begins to stoop down before placing three fingers on the ground. When Dominik lifts his head, Darnez charges at him, darting faster than people who are running for their lives as they try to lose their incoming predator.

As Darnez closes in, Santiago bends back down while placing his far hand across the side of the dumpster. As Darnez lunges forward like the lion attempting to bring down the stray wilder beast, Santiago places his arm under Darnez's knees before springing up and using FC's own momentum to catapult him over his head, launching him inside of the dumpster.

FC desperately claws his hands out of the dumpster before lifting himself up but before he can make an attempt to climb out, the crafty champion takes the lid and slams it on his head, both dropping Darnez into his trashy grave and sealing him inside like a prisoner.

The champion places his hand on top of the lid before pushing the dumpster forward, carting it to back to ringside.

Santiago and the dumpster push the curtains back before Santiago rolls the garbage disposal into the center of the stage. The sight arouses the crowd, as they quickly flood the arena with cheers. As the crowd gets behind him, Santiago gives the dumpster one powerful shove, pushing it down the ramp. The dumpster zooms down the ramp like a speeding automobile before crashing onto the ring apron. The impact causes the dumpster lid to suddenly bust open before the sluggish King of Rants climbs out.-

:Jimmy:
"Darnez has brought the trash to the ring and I'm not talking about the half eaten pizzas in that dumpster."

:Tripp:
"Dominik is a fool! He was so busy trying to entertain these fans that he lost sight of the match. Now what if CrazyBoy decided to arrive while they were brawling backstage, end of match! "

:Ray White:
"Yeah and if CrazyBoy would have one, Darnez would really have kicked Santiago' ass. "

-While the Perth Australian collapses on his side, Santiago brushes past the dumpster before lifting the ring cover up and digging under it. The champion pulls out a long kendo stick. Dominik raises the kendo stick into the air in a ceremonial fashion, getting the attention of the crowd once again. The champion tightly holds the weapon with both hands and stares at Darnez with a fiery passion. This passion is not your normal romantic passion, no, Santiago stares at Darnez, almost not blinking. His eyes tell the story, the story of Santiago's amusement of inflicting serious pain to his foes.

The newest chapter in Dominik's novel is titled, "The Back of FC". The champion rushes at Darnez who finally makes it to vertical base before drawing the kendo stick back. Santiago swings it forward in a horizontal fashion. The stick cracks up against Darnez's lower back and with the impact comes immediate groans from the Streak Ender. FC grimaces in agony, and as he grits his teeth and slightly tilts his head back, tensing up. The champion hopsteps to the side like a pro basketball player before once again cocking the stick back. Like a major leaguer, looking for the homerun, Santiago swings the stick forward with all his might, this time cracking Darnez in his ribs.

As Tripp cringes, he too feeling the pain Darnez feels though he is not the one being struck, Ray White makes a comment. -

:Ray White:
"Guess your sure glad you decided not to partake in this insanity Tripp, Darnez is being killed in there!"

-Tripp doesn't dignify Ray's last comment with a response as he slightly leans up in his seat. The champion tosses the stick to the concrete floor before grabbing Darnez by his tights and around his neck. The T.V. Champion grinds his teeth together before sliding Darnez under the bottom barbed wire, tossing him back into the squared hell.

As Darnez writhes in pain in the center of the ring, the champion saunters to the time keeper's table. Santiago snatches his championship from the nearby ring assistant and places it in one hand before pulling a fresh steel chair out of the stack. Santiago locks the championship around his waist before walking toward the ring but just as he is about to go into the ring he walks back toward the announce table.

Jimmy and Ray stare into the eyes of the disturbed individual in anticipation while Dominik glares at Tripp who returns the favor. The champion lifts his free hand into the air before parading his middle finger at the ICW Icon. Tripp suddenly becomes infuriated but he doesn't do anything drastic as he smiles at Santiago before slouching back in his chair. The champion chuckles a "I Though So" type laugh before advancing to the ring and diving in under the barbed wire.

The champion progresses toward Darnez before backing up almost near the barbed wire, allowing his chair to drag up against the canvas. As his chair and Darnez both gradually rise up, Tripp tosses his headset on the commentary table before shooting out his chair and charging ringside.

As Santiago is about to blast Darnez with the steel chair, Tripp hops up onto the ring apron and snatches the chair out of Dominik's hand. As Dominik turns, chip heaves the chair in his face, pelting Santiago causing him to stagger. With Dominik in a precarious situation, Darnez takes advantage. FC directs Tripp to move out of the way before he shoves Santiago forward, leading by his shoulder. The champion is driven bare chest first into the deadly barbed wire. As the barbed wire begins ripping through Santiago's sternum and neck, the champion cringes and screams out a disturbing moan. As Santiago falls back off the barbed wire, Darnez turns him around before grabbing around his neck with both hands.

After a brief moment, Darnez tosses Santiago back into barbed wire or as Santiago so delicately put, the enforcers!-

:Jimmy Pate:
"Back and chest first onto the barbed wire! Damn that Tripp, so much for a fair and even contest!"

:Ray White:
"Don't be naive Jimbo, this was gonna be a handicap match from the start. No one likes Santiago and if CrazyBoy had been down here it would be 3-1! Dominik should just lay down and die before anymore harm is caused to him!"

[/color]

-Darnez bends over and grabs the steel chair that Santiago introduced to the bout. FC gives Tripp a nod and the HXC superstar suddenly grabs both of Santiago's arms ad wrap them around the barbed wire, tangling the champion up and leaving him defenseless.

Darnez steadily lifts the chair up over his head while Dominik recoils. The champion tries to break free from Tripp but he is unable. Dominik bites his lip and closes his eyes before Darnez brings the chair downward, driving it into Santiago's forehead. A loud "CRACK" sound echoes throughout the arena after the devastating blast of a chair shot. The champ's knees buckle and his head slightly tilts downward as the steel chair shot strips him off all his remaining energy.

Darnez in a show of blatant disrespect, slaps Santiago across his face repeatedly while shouting "Wake Up Doggy" at him. FC then takes the chair and places it under Santiago's chin before using it to lift Santiago's head back up. FC then once gain steadily raises the chair into the air before taking a deep breath. Unlike the previous time, FC puts more force into the attack as he cuts through the air and smashes the chair straight into Santiago's head.

As Darnez draws the chair back from the most recent battering shot, blood slowly oozes out of Santiago's newest cut. -

:Jimmy Pate:
"Come on this is brutality! Santiago is helpless in there! Someone's gotta get Tripp out of there! "[/b]

:Ray White:
This is how you end steaks. Santiago has been on a roll and its no one better to bring that to an end than the Future, Darnez FC!

-Darnez places the now slightly reddish chair to his side before placing his hand around Santiago's jaw. Darnez murmurs something to the weakened champion but as Darnez removes his hand, Santiago spits out a wad of spit which splats against Darnez's face. The crude gesture causes Darnez to exasperate as his veins begin to pop out intimating the challenger's animosity for the champion.

Darnez takes a step back and looks into the eyes of the California board maniac before cocking the chair back somewhat level to his head. FC then steps forward and swings the chair with all his might, looking to completely behead Santiago with one mammoth chair shot.

The Hardkore Assassin, driven by his desire to win and his desire to extirpate The Kure, somehow breaks free from Tripp and the barbed wire's hold on his arm in time to duck. Darnez though can't stop his momentum in time and his chair meets the wrong target. The read painted in a crimson red smacks Tripp straight on the temple. The extreme force put in by Darnez knocks Tripp off the apron and sends him crashing to the unforgiving concrete.

The champion quickly recuperates and recovers from the chair blows as he wipes away some of his crimson mask. Dominik readies himself and when Darnez finally turns around the champion lifts his leg up before driving his toe into Darnez's "Sweet Spot" as he began to lift the chair up. The chair slowly slips out of Darnez's grasp as he bends over and almost begins whimpering.-

:Jimmy Pate:
"Down goes Tripp and its about time that scoundrel got what's coming to him!"

-Santiago quickly capitalizes as he forges ahead. The champion grabs Darnez's head and hovers it over the steel chair before tucking it in his armpit and wraps his forearm around it. Dominik leans his head downward so both he and Darnez's are side by side by each other's shoulders. With his free hand Santiago takes hold of Darnez's far hand before spinning around over Darnez in a swift, semi-circular motion causing both competitors to fall down. On top of his neck impacting Santiago's shoulder, the spine of Darnez FC is driven straight into the steel chair.

As Darnez remains motionless on the canvas, the champion slowly rolls onto his belly and stares at the ladder that lies on the mat unattended and untouched.-

:Ray White:
"Swinging Neckbreaker straight onto the chair, this puts Santiago back into the match!"

:Jimmy Pate:
"If the champion can make it to his feet and climb that ladder he'll retain the title!"

:Ray White:
"Oh Jimmy your too naive! That's one big "IF". The thing you forgot is that Santiago was just beaten like a slave with that steel chair! There is no way he musters enough strength to win this bout!"

-Like a snake Santiago slowly slithers on his belly across the ring to the ladder. The champion grabs the ladder's legs and drags it to himself before slowly making it to a vertical base. The champion bends over and lifts the ladder up before setting it up on all 2's. The exhausted champ then drags the ladder over to the center of the ring before unsnapping the championship from around his waist. With the T.V. title tight in his possession, the champion places his first sneak on the ladder before making his ascent.

As Dominik makes it about halfway, Tripp stirs himself up to his feet on the outside. The ICW Icon slowly climbs back onto the apron without being detected by Santiago before rolling into the ring. As Tripp lifts up from his chest and stands up, Santiago makes it to the top of the ladder. The champion begins hoisting his prestigious championship in the air but just as he is about to hang it across the hook, Tripp charges across the ring and dives at the ladder.

Tripp's shoulder impacts the side of the ladder and the impact shifts the ladder causing it to become unbalanced and tip over. Like a star, Santiago plummets out of the sky. Instead of taking the easy way out, Santiago falls straight on top of the barbed wire with his legs in between the wire. As the champion straddles the ropes the entire arena gasps in unison.-

:Ray White:
"Oh my God! I can't watch this bout anymore! This is a complete turnoff!"

:Jimmy Pate:
"I can't imagine a worse position to be in!"

-As a terrified, Ray White covers his mouth and gasps like the rest of the arena, Santiago slides off the barbed wire and falls onto the ring apron while his championship crashes on the concrete below.-

[Dominik Santiago]

(72 Hour Rule)

-As Tripp slowly makes it back to his feet, Dominik Santiago rolls back into the ring, holding his groin and cringing, obviously in excruciating pain. The champion slithers on his back and slides into the corner, but just as he begins to rest, the ever opportunistic Tripp rushes at him. Tripp quickly lifts his leg into the air before driving it into the sternum of the wounded champion. As saliva sputters out of Santiago's mouth, the ICW Icon quickly clenches his fist tightly together before driving it into Santiago's cut forehead. With the gash the biggest target, Tripp begins raining down on Santiago with stiff shot after stiff shot. As more blood flows from Santiago's head like running water, the Rated HXC Superstar continues his barbaric assault.-

:Ray:
"And the odds are once again stacked in the Kure favor. Tripp is awakened once more and he is completely decapitating Dominik Santiago!"

:Jimmy Pate:
"SNK's television champion is in a bad way and as long as Tripp is healthy in this match, there is no way Darnez can lose!"

-After nearly blasting the champion through the corner with his fists of fury, the ICW icon snatches Santiago by his hair drags him off his backside and out of the corner before pulling him toward the middle barbed wire. Tripp turns Santiago's head before forcing his momentum forward, driving the helpless champ's face straight into the wire. Dominik immediately groans over the top of his lungs like the actors in the horror films as they are being stabbed to death by the serial killer. As Tripp holds Santiago's head in place with one hand, he takes his free elbow and begins repeatedly driving it into the back of the champion's neck. After a minute of sheer brutality, Tripp once again grabs Santiago by his hair before tossing him away from the ropes and throwing him on his back.

The Rated HXC superstar grips Santiago on both sides of his head with both hands before gradually lifting the battered Television Champion to his feet. Tripp backs Santiago up before placing his head in his armpit and throwing his near arm over his shoulder. Tripp grabs Santiago's shorts and lifts him off the ground and into the air. Tripp moves forward before dumping Santiago gut first on the top barbed wire. Dominik screams over the top of his lungs and as he hangs over the barbed wire Tripp grabs his head. The Rated HXC superstar drags Santiago forward so that he hangs on the wire by his feet. Tripp then places Santiago's head back in his armpit and while he presses his biceps tightly against the deformed champion, he drops down on the canvas, pulling Santiago off the barbed wire and burying the champion's bloody head straight into the canvas. Dominik rolls on his back and is rendered motionless after the mammoth DDT and as Tripp quickly rises back up to a vertical base, his partner, the King of the Rant, Darnez FC slowly stirs back up to his feet.-

:Jimmy Pate:
"What a deadly DDT! Dominik Santiago may have a severe concussion!"

:Ray White:
"Tripp has really taken it to the champion. And with Darnez FC making it to his feet, Santiago has no chance of escaping his demise!"

-Darnez and Tripp regroup in the center of the ring and as they stare down at the Dominik who seems like a wounded animal, they begin mocking the champion. After their performance, Darnez grabs the ladder and lays it against the canvas while Tripp lifts the groggy champ to his feet. Tripp places his arm in between Santiago's legs and around his neck before lifting him upside down. Tripp suddenly throws Santiago, dumping him spine first against the unforgiving ladder. As Dominik lays across the ladder in a crucifix, Darnez FC slowly begins climbing the top rope, making sure he has proper balance so he avoids a meeting with the barbed wire already painted with Santiago's blood. When Darnez's ascension is finished, he triumphantly throws his fists into the air, eliciting extreme heat from the crowd. As the boos flood the arena, Darnez suddenly leaps off the top rope and soars through the air.

The challenger flies straight for Santiago, but as he is coming down Dominik somehow finds away to roll off the ladder in time causing an unlucky Darnez to crash chest first against the ladder.-

:Jimmy Pate:
"Nobody home for the King of the Rant and that may be the opening Santiago needs to make it back into the contest!"

-Though not as quick as usual, Dominik springs to his feet and staggers a bit. The Rated HXC charges at Santiago, but when he is within range the champion cleverly ducks down, causing Tripp to lean over his shoulder allowing the crafty champion to pop his hips and lift up, sending Tripp flying out of the ring only to crash back and neck first on the unforgiving concrete below.

Dominik tends to his scraped abdomen, and as he leans down he also stalks Darnez FC who slowly makes it to his feet and turns toward him. Dominik plods to Darnez and quickly lifts his leg into the air only for FC to catch it by cupping his hands in front of his waist. With Dominik's foot, Darnez throws Santiago's leg away from him but the champion continues to spin around. After making the full rotation, the champion lifts that same leg into the air, level to Darnez's head while somewhat falling to the side, cracking the arrogant Australian straight in his temple.

Darnez's knees buckle and his eyes wander off in different directions before he drops down to one knee. As FC's jaw drops, the champion rolls on his back and crouches down before charging at Darnez. The champion steps on Darnez's one knee and uses it like a springboard to launch himself into the air. The champion takes his knee and drives it into FC's head, rocking his world and seemingly dropping him dead with the wicked Shining Wizard.-

:Ray White:
"The tide has certainly shifted! Santiago is in the driver's seat!"

:Jimmy Pate:
"The crowd is happy that Dominik has finally turned back the opposition!"

:Ray White:
"Fuck that, Dicky and I are just relieved that Dominik's penus is still in place! Guys, he's still a catch!"

-While Darnez lies absolutely lifeless on the canvas, Santiago rolls under the barbed wire ropes and exits the ring. The champion drops down to one knee before lifting up the ring cover. Santiago digs under the ring and and slowly drags out a Splitting Maul. The champion raises the maul, the self proclaimed equalizer in the air getting the crowd on its feet.

The champion slides the maul into the ring before rolling back into the squared hell himself. Dominik kicks the maul next to Darnez's head before advancing over to the steel chair laying all by itself across the ring. Santiago holds the chair by the two handles before raising it into the air. He suddenly smacks the chair against the canvas, further causing the crowd to get extremely vociferous.

The champion opens the chair up before sliding it in between Darnez's head. With FC in No-Mans-Land, the champion slowly bends over and grabs the splitting maul. The champion's eyes almost go black, as if he is possessed while a mixture of both a sick and disturbing smug like grin cracks along his face. The champion plants his feet before twirling the splitting maul with his fingers. Dominik finally wraps all 10 of his fingers around the handle before lifting it in the air.

As DOM is literally about to bring the hammer down, the maul is suddenly snatched out of his grasp, causing the champion shift his body weight and turn around. In the ring is none other than the persistent Tripp who refuses to stay down. Tripp takes the maul by the middle before driving it forward, cracking Santiago in the mouth. The champion's head awkwardly snaps backward before he falls down to his side.-

:Ray White:
"Dominik was going for the con-chair-maul but Tripp was having none of it! Males, this is what I mean when I say partner!"

-Tripp removes Darnez's head from in between the chair before shaking him to his senses. Darnez slowly makes it to his feet while Tripp slides out of the ring. The Rated HXC superstar grabs the Television Championship from off the canvas and tosses it into the ring before rolling in himself.

Tripp and Darnez once again stand over Santiago's body with smiles on their faces before they turn to one another and nod. Darnez bends over and grabs Santiago from under his arms before dragging him into the center of the ring. Darnez lifts Santiago to his feet while Tripp backs up and sets himself into position. Tripp jumps forward and lifts his leg up into the air but as it comes forward Santiago somehow breaks free from Darnez and dives out of the way. Tripp's foot cracks FC straight in the chin, knocking the King of the Rant back.

As Darnez falls he turns his body. The King of the Rant lands face first straight into the barbed wire. As Tripp stares at his unconscious opponent in shock, the Television Champion slithers over and grabs the splitting maul. The champion rises to his knees and skulks toward Tripp before cocking the weapon of massive destruction back. When Tripp, oblivious to Santiago turns around, the champion slings the splitting maul straight at him. The tip of the maul bangs up against Tripp's groin, sending a sharp and painful tingle up and down his entire system. While Rated HXC superstar drops to his knees, Santiago slides the steel chair toward himself before setting it up in the center of the ring.

The champion rises to a vertical base before grabbing Tripp by his head. Santiago, with his back turn toward Tripp, wraps both his hands around the front and back of Tripp's head. The champion stands for a moment before charging forward. In one swift moment the champion leaps off the canvas and drives at the chair. As he comes down, he drags Tripp forward driving the ICW Icon's head straight into the steel chair. A loud "SMASH" sound echoes throughout the arena while the SKO both dents and slightly breaks the chair.-

:Jimmy Pate:'SKO onto the chair, SKO onto the chair, Tripp's brain has definitely been scrambled!

-As Tripp rolls out of the ring and onto the apron, the champion crawls on all fours to his championship. Dominik grabs the T.V. title and holds it tightly. The champion kisses his gold and buries it in his chest before rising back to his feet.

Santiago drapes the title on his shoulder before bending over and grabbing the ladder. Santiago stands the ladder up and places it under the center of the hook before extending the legs. The begins climbing on the side that faces the ramp. As Dominik makes his ascension, he doesn't notice Darnez FC pulling himself off the barbed wire and making it to his feet.

FC wipes some blood from his eyes and rolls over and grabs the steel chair before regaining a vertical base. The challenger sneaks up to Santiago who nears the top before swinging the chair. The chair is smashed into the back of Santiago's leg, rendering the champion motionless at the top. As Dominik tries to make another attempt, Darnez smacks his leg with the chair once again, stopping Santiago dead in his tracks. The King of the Rant tosses the chair to the side before climbing the ladder on the other side.

Both superstars meet at the top, where Darnez snatches the champion from off of Santiago's shoulder. As FC tries to hoist the title on the hook, Santiago lifts his head and before driving his fist into Darnez's gut, causing the title to slip out of FC's hand and fall to the canvas below. Dominik climbs the last step before blasting Darnez in his nose with another stiff punch. Darnez becomes slightly unbalanced and almost falls off the ladder but he grabs onto the sides just in time. Santiago extends his arm out to the side before swinging it at Darnez's temple. The Haymaker misses, as Darnez ducks. The King of the Rant quickly capitalizes as he takes his fingers and scratches them against Santiago's eyes, blinding the champion. With Dominik Santiago defenseless, Darnez grabs Santiago around his head with one arm before pointing to the crowd with the other.

The King of The Rant chops his free hand down before swinging off the top of the ladder, pulling Santiago with him. The challenger spins around, gracefully corkscrewing in the air. Upon falling down to the mat, the King of the Rant drives the back of Santiago's head into the canvas. A loud "THUD" is heard as both superstars bang up against the mat.-

:Ray White:
"Future's End from off the ladder! Good Lord what a move! Darnez has put Santiago away for good!"

:Jimmy Pate:
"But at what cost? Though he may have put Santiago out of his misery, the challenger may have ended his own future in the process!"

-The bitter rivals remain motionless on the canvas, and as they stare up at the ceiling, the crowd erupts into a state of pandemonium as "This Is Awesome" chants flood the sold out arena.

With the ongoing action in the ring barely any one present notices music from Linkin Park beginning to play over the speakers. Walking from backstage after falling asleep in his locker room the Crazy One finally has made his way to the ring. Crazy One is in his usual attire of deep red wrestling tights and a black shirt which simply states " Crazy Boy, his own worst enemy" and his snake skin boots. Casually he walks down the aisle raising his hands in high five to the fans lucky enough to be point blank to the action. Walking to either side of the security barrier as he walks confidently towards the ring reading some of the fan made banners and looking at the packed at audience.

Stopping mid-stride he tilts his head to the side while raising his chin and inhales a deep breath. Lowering his head as he opens his eyes he gazes around him at the cozy audience in the small yet spacious Solid Core Gymnasium. Turning his head he focuses on the ring which appears like a bomb raid from world war 2. Beaten and bruised opponents trying to get one up on the other. A chuckle of bemusing thought comes over him as he sings the theme song of some old cartoon echoes in his head. His neck silently cracking as he stretches side to side. Crazy Boy takes his another step as he makes his way to the ring. Turning to his side he sees a possible weapon which catches his attention. With a sly smile on his face he strides over feeling rather confident and picks it up.. A slight smile betrays his calm persona as he continues to walk the aisle. Once at the squared circle Crazy Boy stops for a moment tio watch the current cause of action unfold.
