Weekend Warfare(10th June)

Scene fades in. We are following the HUD of a jet bomber, flying over Manhattan. The HUD picks out the EWA headquarters, The Bateman Center. Dig, by Mudvain begins to play as the Bateman Centre is targeted by the aircraft's HUD. Scene cuts to a smart bomb detaching from the bomber and spiraling down through the clouds toward the Bateman Center. As it hits and explodes, the music kicks to high gear and the video montage of EWA wrestlers taking bumps etc plays in time with the beat. The music reaches a climatic hit, at which point the screen flashes white, fading back to the EWA Weekend Warfare logo, cast in shining steel, covered by tails of blue electricity. Bill Altieri's voiceover begins.

B.A. "Welcome everyone to the Bateman Center! Welcome to Weekend Warfare! Tonight, is a historic night for all concerned. Tonight, we will crown our first, EWA Euromerican Champion! All I can say is that it's an honor to be here and call the action for this momentous night, right Mr.D?"

Mr.D "You got that exactly right Bill Altieri, I can't wait to see the ass kickin my homeboy Michael Dugaz is gonna put on the Boss. Mr Flaws, you're gonna regret the day you crossed YOUR F'N HERO!"

(SIC) by Slipknot booms over the house PA system. In a flash of blue pyro, Sypher pushes throught the curtain and slowly makes his way to the ring to a mixed fan response. At the announce table, he removes his chained wallet and t shirt and enters the ring.

Mr. D " Sypher is just plain ugly Bill! I mean who puts themselves through all of that pain for tattoos and piercings? I didn't know Fred Durst could wrestle"

The banter is cut short as SOBER by Tool plays over the PA. JC Swinger struts down to the ring with Tina on his arm. A fan reaches over the barrier towards Tina, but Swinger intercepts and punches the fan squarely in the face and continues his walk to the ring

Mr. D "I knew that. My favorite wrestler, JC Swinger. A bad man, with a badder attitude, Swinger is gonna break Syphon in half like the pencil necked geek that he is!"

Sypher following up with stomps to the neck and shoulders of Swinger. Swinger rolls out of the ring to the floor, Sypher follows. Swinger back to his feet, counters with a running forearm shot to the mouth of Sypher

Sypher, now bleeding heavily from the mouth, drops to the floor. Swinger begins to rain kicks into his head, becoming more vicious with each kick. Sypher is begining to go limp on the floor, blood puddling out of his mouth. Swinger dips his finger into it and daubs "CALL 911" on Sypher's back.

Swinger begins to strut around the ringside area, posing to the fans, taking delight in their boos and jeers. Sypher stumbles to his feet and low blows Swinger, giving an extra twist for good luck. The crowd respond with "OOOOOOOOHHHH" Sypher grapples Swinger around the waist and heaves him once....twice....three times and into a huge released german suplex, sending Swinger crashing head and neck first into the floor.

Sypher heaves up his foe and rolls him into the ring. Swinger gets immediately to his feet and boots Sypher in the mid section as he enters the ring, then executes a huge jacknife powerbomb on Sypher.

Swinger off one rope, big jumping elbow drop on Sypher, then into a cover. Sypher kicks out again. Swinger up, berating the ref. Sypher up, spins Swinger around and spits a mouthful of blood into his face, blinding him temporarily. Two boots to the stomach double Swinger over, Sypher sets him up...

B.A." This looks like it could be The Means To An.....END!!! He hit it! Syphet just threw Swinger head and neck first into the turnbuckle right above us! It's gotta be over"

MrD "I knew that too. Blanko ain't worth a shit Bill and you know that. He may be big and built, but he just doesn't have the the skill of my homeboy, Vengence!"

Iron Man by Black Sabbath booms throughout the arena as Vengence throws the curtain aside and strides to the ring, dropping his leather overcoat as he goes. He runs the last of the ramp and slides into the ring.

Vengence laying in to Blanko with vicious shots to the face, backing him up into the corner, where he starts opening up with high impact knife edge chops to the chest.

MrD" Vengence all over Blanko like a rash, this guy is determined to win. I'll never make fun of a british person as long as I live. Get vengeful on his ass Vengence!"

Vengence whips Blanko from one corner to the opposite, Blanko reverses, Vengence strikes the turnbuckle hard, Blanko follows up with a wicked clothesline, almost decapitating Vengence. Blanko to the ropes, Lionsault for the 2 count. Standing legdrop by Blanko, cover, still only 2.

Blanko into the ropes for a third time, Vengence up, boot to the mid section of Blanko, HUGE snap suplex on Blanko, bouncing him off the mat. Vengence immediately into action, stomping and kicking away at Blanko. Vengence turns Blanko onto his front and applies the Regal stretch.

Blanko looking in a bad way now as the Regal stretch is released. Venegnce out of the ring, bringing a steel chair back in. Blanko to unsteady feet, Vengence swings, Blanko ducks, T bone suplex on Vengence, chair hitting him in the face on the way down. Blanko shaking the cobwebs loose, in control now. Vengence up in the far corner of the ring, Blanko running toward him, chair raised above his head. Vengence running at Blanko

Mr.D"Enough kissing Rocky Blanko's ass already! The next match is up, and it's gonna be good, "Sensational One" Jeff Kane going up against that wannabe porn star, "Natural Heat" Jamie Rose."

The lights to the house fade to black as Fuck Off by Kid Rock starts playing over the house P.A. system. Suddenly bright spotlights begin circling around the entry ramp,making it look like a catwalk. From behind the curtain steps “Natural Heat” Jamie Rose. He pauses for a brief moment on the entry ramp to brush his golden hair away from his eyes and flash a smile to the crowd, then makes his way to the ring.

Last Resort by Papa Roach begins it's opening verse over the P.A. “Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort…” As this is sung the lights go out again and “Sensational One” Jeff Kane steps from behind the curtain in a bright orange flash. He surveys the crowd with his cold blue eyes and makes his way to the ring.

B.A. “There he is, ladies and gentlemen, the man, the myth, whatever you want to call him, it's Jeff Kane! He is one talent that you will definitely have to keep an eye on.”

As Kane enters the ring, Rose wastes no time in getting the upper hand by laying into him with a flurry or rights to his head. Kane staggers for a moment then stands and trades punches with Rose.

Kane with the upper hand now, whips Rose into the ropes, and meets him with a knee to the midsection. Kane is on top of Rose laying into him with a few punches to Rose's face before pulling him to his feet again.

Kane sets the dazed Rose up for a Death Valley driver, but Rose wiggles out of it and lands behind Kane and pushes Kane to the ropes. Kane bounces back and meets with a shoulder tackle, delivered by Rose.

Rose picks Kane up again and sets him up for a knee-breaker. Kane reverses and drops Rose to the mat in a bulldog. Kane pulls Rose to his feet again and sets up for the Death Valley driver again and lands it.

Rose regains focus at the last second and ducks as Kane goes sailing over the top rope and his hard on the B.A. "Ouch… that's gotta hurt.”mat outside the ring.

Rose casually steps out and down onto the mat where Kane is holding his ribs and lands a few nonchalant kicks to the back of Kane's head and picks him up and throws him back into the ring. Once back inside the ring, Rose thrusts his hips as if in a porno movie and pulls Kane's head between his legs.

Just before Rose executes his move a young woman in the front row of the crowd holding a “DO ME JAMIE!” sign drops it and flashes her perfect, pendulous breasts at Rose, who throws her a wink. This gives Kane just enough time to regain momentum and he grabs onto Rose and pushes him forward into a rollup.

You Spin Me Round by Dope suddenly blast over the PA system and Sean “Sexbomb” Fontayne appears from behind the curtain. A bright white flash of pyro erupts around him as he makes his way to the ring.

Body of Christ by Type O Negative begins it's slow melody over the house P.A. and Messiah steps from behind the curtain in a blinding white light and slowly and deliberately makes his way into the ring.

The bell rings as Sexbomb and Messiah lock up. Messiah gets the upper hand and puts a knee into Sexbomb's abdomen and follows through with blows to the back of his head.

Sexbomb counters the punches with a swift punch to the groin and Messiah goes down hard, grabbing his tender spot. Sexbomb is up now, laying kick after kick into Messiah.

Sexbomb is still on Messiah and hooks the ankle-lock but Messiah is too close to the ropes. Messiah gets up quickly, apparently catching a second wind and catches Sexbomb unaware with a running forearm smash.

B.A. “Wow… they're using some really basic moves for this one. I guess it shows that tried and true moves beat out all that high-flying technical crap any day.”

B.A. “Wow, an impressive showing for Messiah, looks like he will go on to the semi finals of tonight's big tournament. This night has been really something fans, already we have seen four great matches, and there are still two to go in this leg of the title tournament. Let's get straight back to the action because this next match should be a classic, as Tony Penn meets his so called destiny, VIOLENCE!"

A deep, booming voice comes over the PA...."QUIET!"...music begins with whispers" Let the bodies hot the floor, let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the floor, let the bodies hit the..........FLOOR!" The music is istantly recognisable as Bodies by Drowning Pool, the theme of Violence. He slowly pulls the curtain aside and stands at the top of the ramp, soaking up the boos and jeers. He flips the crowd a double bird and begins to walk to the ring, lead by his stunning valet, Trinity.

Violence climbs the steps and enters the ring, holding the ropes open for Trinity. She steps in and removes Violence's flowing black overcoat. Violence slumps down, sitting in the corner while Trinity exits the ring.

The announcers are cut short as Devil Without A Cause starts to play. The crowd pop big time as Tony Penn strides through the curtain and down toward the ring, slapping the odd outstretched hand on the way. As soon as he reaches the ringside, he starts trash talking Violence, and gets met with a suicide dive over the top rope, flatening him on the outside.

Violence hauls Penn back up and rolls him into the ring, following him in swiftly, prompting the ringing of the bell. Violence in immediate control, stomping hard on both Penn's shoulders. Penn trying to escape, but Violence is on him, stomping harder and harder.

Penn drops his guard for a second and pokes Violence in the eyes, making him fall backwards. Penn in control now, kicks Violence square in the face as he tries to get to his feet, knocking him back down. Penn drops the elbow on the back of his opponent's head.

Penn bring Violence to his feet now, spinning around and delivering a huge tornado punch, sending Violence to the mat. Penn climbing the turnbuckle, measuring Violence...

Penn gracefully leaps from the turnbuckle, landing a devastating elbow onto the chest of Violence. Violence now rolling on the mat, clutching at his chest, spitting up blood also. Penn seems to get more fire in him at the site of his opponent's blood, and begins dropping knee after knee into his opponent's back.

Penn motions to the crowd for the Penn State. The crowd respond by popping bigtime, but the cheers seems to aid Violence in shaking the cobwebs loose. Violence wiping blood away from his mouth now, his face filling with rage...

Penn lands hard on his neck and remains motionless. A hush falls over the crowd as the await movement from their hero. Violence kicks idly at his fallen opponent, when Penn suddenly explodes into action, hooking Violence into an inside cradle

B.A." OOOOHHHH! He was playing possum all along! A cover....1.....2.....NNNNOOOOOO, damn him, he got the shoulder up! Violence Kicked out! What does Tony Penn Have to do to get a 3?!?!?"

Violence out of the pin and to his feet with authority, stomping away at Penn. Bringing Penn to his feet now, a whip to the ropes, Penn leaps to the top turnbuckle, Violence with a low blow, crotching Penn on the turnbuckle.

Violence now, setting Penn up for a superplex, he hooks him and hoists him vertical, but then begins to climb the turnbuckle to the top, still holding Penn vertical

B.A. "I don't believe what i'm seein' here D! Violence just climbed to the top floor while holding Penn, vertical suplex style. Wait, he's turning to face into the ring now..."

B.A." LOOK AT THE CARNAGE IN THE RING! TONY PENN LOOKS LIKE HE JUST GOT HIT BY A MACK TRUCK!! Violence going in for the cover. Please God, let it be over! 1.....2.....3!!! My God, Violence just took Tony Penn to hell and back and destroyed him with The Punisher!"

EMTs rush to the ring as Violence just stands and stares at the prone body of Tony Penn. Not even the various objects of trash begin hurled at him by the crowd seem to bother him. Finally, Trinity leads he entranced lover to the back.

Punishment by Biohazard begins blasting over the house P.A. as Mike Master steps out from behind curtain in a flash of bright lights. He looks over the crowd for a few moments then runs down to the ring and dives under the bottom rope. Once inside, he struts around the ring, waiting for Gator, his first opponent.

Greed by Godsmack begins blaring over the arena as the lights black out. A single spotlight begins circling the entrance ramp and a glint of light sparks as the light catches the barbell situated in Gator's eyebrow. Almost simultaneously a green strobe light goes off, bathing Gator's face in light. He looks around and walks to the ring.

As Gator enters the ring Masters rushes him and hits him with a forearm smash, knocking Gator to a knee on the apron. Masters pulls Gator up and over the top rope by the hair and proceeds to lay into him with a kick to the side of the face.

Gator lifts Masters back to his feet and executes a flawless snap suplex. Then sits on top of Masters in the center of the ring and applies a camel clutch. Masters, using all the power he can muster, crawls towards the ropes and breaks the hold.

Masters gets to his feet and is taken right off of them by a flying tackle. Gator lifts Masters to his feet and proceeds to lift him onto his shoulders and turns slightly.

B.A. “ I didn't ask you. Now I don't know about you D, but I'm bushed already. What a night of action it has been so far. But there is no rest for us folks, or the wrestlers, as we move straight on to the semi finals, right after this”

“The whole thing I think is sick… The whole thing I think is sick…” (SIC) by Slipknot booms over the house PA system. In a flash of blue pyro, Sypher pushes throught the curtain and slowly makes his way to the ring to a mixed fan response. At the announce table, he removes his chained wallet and t-shirt and enters the ring.

As D finishes his rant, Greed by Godsmack begins blaring over the arena as the lights black out. A single spotlight begins circling the entrance. Almost simultaneously a green strobe light goes off, bathing Gator's face in light. He looks around and walks to the ring as the crowd cheers him on.

Gator slowly climbs warily into the ring, keeping an eye on Sypher the whole time, knowing all to well what happened at the beginning of his last match. Sypher calmly waits for Gator to climb in then begins circling slowly around the perimeter of the ring.

Gator begins circling the ring's outer edge as well. As if by telepathy, the two opponents clash together in center ring in a lock up. They struggle for a few moments then break up and begin circling again.

As B.A. finishes the two fighters clash in center ring again, this time, Gator getting the upper hand. He puts an arm bar on Sypher and wrenches down. Sypher drops to a knee.

Gator pulls the arm down again and Sypher reaches across his own body and grips Gator's arm and twists out, tossing Gator over. Gator springs back up and eyes Sypher's cold stare. Sypher glares right back at him, and assumes a slight football stance.

Gator and Sypher meet again. Sypher gets the upper hand this time, and puts Gator on the mat in a body slam. As soon as Gator hits, he sweeps his legs out, tripping Sypher. Sypher lands hard on his back and both men spring to their feet and begin trading punches.

Gator and Sypher continue trading punches for a few moments until Gator steps back and lunges forward with a stiff clothesline, knocking Sypher to the mat. Gator dives on top of Sypher and delivers blow after blow to his face. After a few punches, Gator brings Sypher to his feet and sets up for a snap suplex. Sypher reverses with an elbow to the side of Gator's face and hits him with a hip toss. Gator goes down hard. Sypher flips him over and locks him in a Texas cloverleaf. Gator, using sheer will, pulls Sypher to the rope and stops the hold. Sypher releases the hold and Gator gets to his feet almost immediately and charges Sypher and tackles him to the mat.

Gator does just that and throws Sypher back a third time, planting it, trying for a pin. 1… 2… Sypher kicks his body out at the last second breaking the pin. Gator gets up and pulls Sypher up by his hair and lifts him over his head in a fireman's carry.

Sypher wiggles out and slides down Gator's back at the last second and wraps his arms around Gator's waist and throws him back, starting his own string of German suplexes. He hits one, then two, then three, releasing Gator on the third suplex.

Sypher collapses to the mat alongside Gator after the third suplex, obviously spent. Sypher reaches his arm across Gator's body, trying for the pin. 1… 2… Gator throws Sypher's arm off just in the nick of time. They both slowly climb to their feet. Both slightly dazed, they look at one another and lock up again. Gator, once again, gets the upper hand and lifts Sypher up and drops him in a backbreaker.

Gator swings Sypher out and hits the Gatorbreaker. Sypher lies on the canvas limply and Gator slowly goes for the cover. 1… 2… 3! The crowd pops with pleasure

Gator slowly rises and looks down at Sypher, who has begun to stir. Gator reaches down and pulls the dazed Sypher to his feet and extends his hand in a handshake. He seems to mouth the words “Well Done.” Sypher slowly extends his hand and shakes Gator's and mouths “You too…” then climbs down and out of the ring and back to the locker room.

“Let the bodies hit the floor… Let the bodies hit the floor…” begins echoing throughout the arena as the lights go black and a single spot lights comes to rest on a white screen. A muscular figure can be seen standing behind the translucent screen. As the song begins picking up speed in a throaty scream, a flash of white pyro erupts around entrance and engulfs the screen. It burns quickly to the ground and Violence walks through the ash in a bright haze of white and red strobe lights. He pauses briefly to wait for Trinity to come to his side from the back, surveys the crowd, and seems to savor the “boos” and “hisses” coming from all directions. He calmly and slowly makes his way to the ring and prepares to meet his opponent as Trinity paces around the opposite side of the ring.

B.A. “And here he is again, ladies and gentlemen, the man known as Violence. Here for his second match of the evening. Let's see if he can make another impressive showing…”

B.A. is interrupted by Ozzy Osbourne's voice “I AM IRON MAN” and the lights go black once again. As the monster guitar riff begins the song, two huge pillars of flame ignite on both sides of the entry ramp. In the center of the two flames stands Vengence, eyes downcast to the floor. He looks up to a mixed response from the crowd and makes his way to the ring, never taking his eyes off his opponent.

As Vengence climbs up into the ring, Violence springs from the far corner and nails him with a dropkick, knocking Vengence to the floor. Violence springs out after him and lands squarely on top of him with a guillotine leg drop.

Vengence buckles under the hit and Violence springs back up and pulls Vengence up with him. Violence grabs Vengence by the trunks and tosses him under the bottom rope and into the ring, signaling the official beginning of the match. Vengence staggers to his feet and lands a punch to Violence's face as he climbs back in the ring.

Violence's hand shoots to his cheek, holding the spot Vengence connected with and throws a punch of his own. Vengence and Violence are standing toe to toe, trading punches in the center of the ring.

Vengence, seemingly with renewed vigor lays into the down Violence with a flurry of punches to the face then picks him back up and executes a perfect snap suplex. Vengence continues with his assault and straps a Boston Crab on Violence.

Violence is too close to the ropes and grabs out and the ref breaks the hold. Vengence isn't letting up with his attacks and pulls Violence to his feet and whips him to the ropes.

Vengence lifts Violence to his feet. On his way up, Violence connects with a low blow, sending Vengence to his knees. Both men are on the ground and the ref begins his count.

As the ref hits seven Violence grabs a rope and lifts himself to his feet. Vengence is on the other side of the ring slowly doing the same. Violence, apparently catching a second wind, charges Vengence and busts his eye open with a Yakuza kick to the face. Vengence, bleeding profusely from the wound, slumps to the ground.

Violence is putting more and more pressure on Vengence's back when the ref goes to the rope and begins yelling and pointing his finger. Down the isle stands, Nicky Blanko, obviously taking pleasure in Vengence's pain.

While the ref's back is turned Tony Penn springs from the crowd holding a baseball bat. Violence, so caught up in “The Pain” doesn't notice Penn sneak into the ring and swing the bat, knocking Violence cold. As Nicky Blanko storms off, not liking the situation in the ring, the ref turns back around to see Vengence's arm slumped over Violence's still body.

Vengence slowly crawls out of the ring and down the isle as Trinity jumps up on the ring apron and into the ring, to Violence's aide. Violence stands unaided, brushing EMTs away who are trying to check him over. His cold gaze is fixed on Vengence.

“Cut my life into pieces, this is my last resort…” is heard for the second time tonight as “Sensational One” Jeff Kane makes his way to the ring again in a blinding flash of orange to a mixed crowd.

B.A. “Listen to this crowd! I think some of these people think he was cheap for winning the way he did… but others think it was great. I mean, c'mon, Rose was beaten by the better man…”

Mr. D is cut short by the opening riff to Body of Christ by Type O Negative as Messiah makes his walk to the squared circle for the second time in the evening in a white glow.

Kane is on Messiah again, hooking him in a figure four in the center of the ring. The ref is over Messiah, asking for the tap. Messiah is frantically shaking his head as Kane pulls harder. Messiah still refuses.

B.A. “A perfectly executed SENSATION! Holy shit what a move! What a move! Here it comes… 1… 2… 3! Kane wins and advances to the finals. We have our final 3 folks, Gator, Vengence and Jeff Kane will face off momentarily for the EWA Euromerican title!"

Music booms over the PA "To all the people I've offended...FUCK YOU TOO!.." The chorus to Still Don't Give A Fuck by Eminem continues, as EWA president Phil Flaws makes his way to the ring, dressed in black wrestling boots, black leisure pants by Gant and an EWA singlet. His defined physique is clearly visable.

Prez "Tonight, in this very ring, I will personally present the EWA Euromerican title to one lucky gentleman, who will have overcome insurmountable odds, to be the last man standing in this tournament. But before such a fantastic spectical take place, your president has to deal with a piece of shit that has been stinking up the EWA since day one! Get your scrawny, Hardy Boyz looking ass out here Dugaz!"

Dugaz drops the mic and makes his way to the ring. He climbs in and goes head to head with the Prez, both trash talking each other. The Prez raises the mic to his lips.

Prez "I have a deal for you Michael. I have a pre signed contract from the commissioner here. All you need to do, is put your little girly signature on the dotted line, and that's it."

Prez " Well Michael, now it's official. You have just signed a liability waver, meaning anything that happens to you in this building from now on is all legal! If you get killed right now, EWA or it's employees are not responsible. However...if you can beat your opponent tonight, I may allow you to stay in EWA"

No music hits....the fans wait. Dugaz turns, raising his hands in the air, pleading to the crowd. The Prez turns and levels Dugaz with a stiff blow to the back of the head

Dugaz gets back up and stares at Flaws. Flaws smiles slyly and clicks his fingers. As he does so, the lights go out and Carmina Burana by Carl Orff begins to play. A huge explosion occurs in the entry way, followed by the lights coming back on. Behind Dugaz stands a 6 foot, oriental man, wearing black martial arts pants and black boots. His face is painted red and black. The crowd pop bigtime, but Dugaz is fixed on the Prez.

Dugaz slowly turns and is met by a vicious back elbow from Akairo. Dugaz down on his butt, looking dazed. As the Prez looks on, Akairo hits the ropes and delivers a full force side kick, flush into the face of Dugaz, busting his nose, eye and cheek open.

Akairo catches a gold Zippo, thrown to him by the Prez. He flicks it open ans sprays whatever he has in his mouth toward Dugaz, engulfing him in a huge orange fireball

Dugaz slumps to the mat, soot blackened and twitching. The Prez walks over to him with the mic and squats beside his prone body. In a suitably McMahon voice, he spits his words at Dugaz

The crowd pop once more, as the Prez and Akuma Akairo leave the ring to the tune of Eminem's "Still Don't Give A Fuck" as EMTs quickly attend to the injured Dugaz.

Greed by Godsmack begins blaring over the arena as the lights black out. A single spotlight begins circling the entrance ramp. Almost simultaneously a green strobe light goes off, bathing Gator's face in light. He looks around and walks to the ring as the crowd cheers him on.

B.A. is interrupted by Ozzy Osbourne's voice “I AM IRON MAN” and the lights go black. As the monster guitar riff begins the song, two huge pillars of flame ignite on both sides of the entry ramp. In the center of the two flames stands Vengence, eyes downcast to the floor. He looks up to a mixed response from the crowd and makes his way to the ring, never taking his eyes off the ring.

Vengence, seeing an opportunity, punches Kane in the side of the head, dazing him for a few moments. Vengence pulls the stunned Gator to his feet and takes him for a ride in a quick snap suplex. As Gator hits, Kane regains his momentum and pulls Vengence off Gator and lays into him with a few punches to the gut then lifts him up, going for a death valley driver. Gator gets up slowly and pulls Vengence off Kane and lands a belly-to-back suplex. Kane with a double ax handle to Gator's back, and throws him out of the ring to the floor below.

Kane follows Gator to the outside, and begins stomping on his back. Soon after Vengence comes flying out of the ring, hitting Kane with a flying clothesline. Kane hits the floor with a thud beside Gator.

Blanko kicks the confused Vengence and hits him with the “Blank Out.” Vengence slumps to the ground in an unconscious heap and Blanko walks back up the isle.

Kane and Gator lock up in the middle of the ring and struggle for a few moments with each other. They break the lock up and glare at one another. Suddenly Kane lunges at Gator, trying to land a quick punch to the face. Gator easily sidesteps and lands a knee to Kane's midsection.

At the last second of the drop of the suplex Kane pulls it in and turns it into a backbreaker. The cover 1… 2… a split second before the ref calls 3 Gator kicks out.

Kane raises Gator to his feet again and lands a few punches squarely to the side of Gator's head. Gator slumps down a little to his knees. Kane picks him back up and throws him into the ropes and meets him with a powerslam into a pin. 1… 2… again Gator raises an arm.

Kane lifts Gator to his feet again and tries to toss him to the ropes, Gator reverses and catches Kane with a well placed boot to the chin. Kane stands straight up and falls flat on his back. Gator falls on him trying for the pin. 1… Kane kicks out easily.

Gator and Kane get to their feet at the same time and Kane swings in for a punch. Gator ducks under the punch and catches Kane in a sleeper hold. Kane tries to break the hold for a few seconds then slowly slumps to the ground. After a few seconds of Gator wrenching the hold the ref comes over to check for consciousness. He raises Kane's arm once… it falls. Twice… it falls. The third time up, Kane holds it there and begins struggling again.

Kane powers his way back to his feet and lays a hard elbow to the ribs of Gator. Gator breaks the hold and clutches his ribs. Kane lays a punch into Gator's face again and pulls him down and into a DDT.

Kane lifts Gator back to his feet and leads him to the ropes by the hair. Once there, Kane jumps up to the top rope and sets up for a brain buster. Gator, realizing what's about to happen, grabs Kane and tosses him off the ropes. Kane lands hard and grips his leg.

Kane begins working his way to the ropes, pulling Gator with him. Gator lifts up and walks Kane back to the center of the ring. The ref kneels beside Kane and asks if he wants to give up. Kane shakes his head frantically signaling `no' and grabs the back of his head in an attempt to shutout the pain.

After a few tense moment Gator leans back on his hold, causing even more pain to Kane. After a few moments of Kane denying to give up, Gator leans back as far as he can causing Kane to flail his arm frantically and finally tap. The ref signals for the bell and the match ends.

The President makes his way to the ring with Comissioner Drea, carrying the Euromerican Title belt. He enters the ring and picks up a mic. He shakes Gator's hand, causing the crowd to pop and hands the belt to Gator, who immediatly climbs the turnbuckle, holding the belt over his head, poppong the crowd once more.

B.A. "Wow! A huge rematch already signed for Tuesday Night Blitz, Jeff Kane versus the new champ Gator! What a night folks, but we're out of time. For Mr.D, this is Bill Altieri saying goodnight from the electric Bateman Center"
