The End of Days Tournament
Night 3
BAM! We open up inside of the beautiful Grand Opera House, all wondrously ruined by the wrestling setup AND being blasted to its core by rock and roll of all things. Specifically, "Kiss of Fire" by local Belfastians, Maverick. They're rocking out live in the entranceway because we can probably afford that.
As they continue to rock on we find our way to ringside where Joey Hawke and Jerry Lawler are ready for the action!
Hawke: Good evening ladies and gentlemen! I'm Joey Hawke and with me is my partner Jerry "The King" Lawler and we welcome you to night three of the End of Days tournament!
King: Oh man, why are we so close to the action when we could have gotten private balcony seats?
Hawke: Because we're not Statler and Waldorf
King: You can call me whatever you want if I can get a great view!
Hawke: Anyway folks, tonight is a huge night because we've got the quarter finals of the End of Days Tournament AND-
King: The X*Crown qualifying matches!
Hawke: That's right, King. Besides finding out our semifinalists for the End of Days Tournament we'll see who's going on to face Subject #42 for the X*Crown at the end of the month!
King: Let's get to it then!
Bonnie Jenkins: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a contendership match for the X*Crown match a the End of Days finale. Featuring first the challenger...Psychotic Goth!
Evil green mist bellows out of the ring entrance as a woman screams and Psychotic Goth laughing maniacally as "Welcome To Your Death" by Annihilator plays and Vampira leads Psychotic Goth to ringside in chains while holding Psychotic Goth's homemade weapon. He ignores the ringsiders and stops at the ring for Vampira to unlock the chains and Psychotic Goth rubs his wrists hard as he climbs the ringsteps and enters the ring and stands in his corner. He slowly takes off his trenchcoat and jewelry before he lowers his head and raises his arms before throwing his head back revealing his pale handsome gothlike looks looking and snarling like a demonic maniac crazed and intimidating as he is given his homemade weapon and he caresses it before placing it in his corner for Vampira to hold until it's time for Psychotic Goth to use it.
King: I’m going to say this. Was that green mist evil or what?
Hawke: How can a green mist be evil?
King: That’s kind of my point.
Hawke: That doesn't make any sense.
King: Does it have to?
Bonnie Jenkins: And his opponent...Nausicaa Suzuki!
"花を焼べて 詩を焼べて
誰より険しく美しく
あの日の傷ももらった愛も
全て焼べて 光の方へ"
誰より険しく美しく
あの日の傷ももらった愛も
全て焼べて 光の方へ"
With those words "Tsuki to Hanataba" plays its way into the arena. Shortly afterwards Nausicaä, holding a stuffed cat she calls Charles in her right hand, appears upon the stage with a bright, proud, smile and blows the cheering audience a kiss before heading down the ramp way. Once at ringside Suzuki blows smiles and waves at the crowd before rolling herself into the ring. After entering the ring Nausicaä makes her way over to the furthest ropes to sits on the middle rope and lean back before smiling more cheerfully at the people in attendance tonight while cuddling Charles close to herself.
King: Stuffed cat? Are we sure that isn’t going to become a victim tonight?
Hawke: Why would you say that?
King: Look at the way that Vampira is eyeing that cat. She might be destroying it later ....just as a distraction.
Hawke: That sounds horrible!
King: Just being a realist here.

Psychotic Goth (SWAT) vs Nausicaa Suzuki (SEC)
Nausicaa places Charles in her corner, turning her attention toward Psychotic Goth, who is nearly vibrating with excitement for the violence to come. He roars in an ancient dialect as the bell sounds to start the match.
King: What the heck did he just say about my mother?
Hawke: I don't think he said anything about your mother.
King: Oh ok. I swear I heard him say something about her though.
Nausicaa jumps at Goth, deflecting a punch so that she can thumb him in the eye. She backs up to the ropes, bounces, and comes at Goth while he clutches at his face. He notices her and reaches, but she drops down in a baseball slide drop kick that brings Goth to the mat! Nausicaa rolls to the side, striking Goth in the side of the head with an elbow. She hops to her feet, but is met by Psychotic Goth, who grabs her by the hair and hits a thunderous headbutt that staggers her backwards. He bounces off of the ropes, coming back with a roaring discus punch. He continues to he ropes, coming back with another roaring discus punch, and then he does it a third time that sends Nausicaa to the mat. Goth goes to the ropes as Nausicaa gets back to her feet, he goes for a flying leg clothesline off of the ropes, but she sidesteps the attempt. She spins around and drop kicks Goth in the knee, sending him down to the mat. She stomps on the grounded Goth until he rolls away and to his feet. Goth grabs at Nausicaa with a collar-elbow tie up, shifting quickly to a bodyslam! She pops back up, only to be grabbed and body slammed again. she pops back up, only to be grabbed and body slammed a third time.
King: Those body slams were done with authority!
Hawke: Like a President? A Presidential Body slam?
King: Maybe?
Goth grabs the downed Nausicaa and applies a rear naked choke. It only lasts a few minutes before Nausicaa breaks out and gets to her feet. Psychotic Goth goes for a German suplex, but catches an elbow to the side of the head. Nausicaa brings Goth down with a side headlock, twisting his head to crank on the pressure. The ref checks to see if Goth will submit, but he refuses. Nausicaa sends Goth into the ropes, taking him down on the rebound with a huricanrana that she converts to a pinfall attempt!
One
T-Goth kicks out!
Nausicaa gets to her feet, but is met by the savage Goth, who claws at her eyes before sending her to the mat with a hip toss. Nausicaa rolls to her feet, but is again clawed at the eyes and hip tossed to the mat. This time when Nausicaa gets to her feet, Goth grabs her from behind for a German suplex. Nausicaa hits a back elbow to stun him, spins around, and hits a pele kick! Nausicaa Suzuki stands by the downed Psychotic Goth and blows a kiss to the crowd, giggling when they cheer her on.
Hawke: I don't know if now's a good time to be showboating.
King: When else would it be a good time to showboat? What? After the match is finished?
Nausicaa goes for the ropes as Goth rises, leaping at the ropes and springboarding into a flying forearm that brings Goth back down to the mat. Nausicaa quickly hooks a leg, going for the pinfall!

Th-Goth kicks out!
Nausicaa jumps to her feet, going to the ropes. She comes back as Goth starts to sit up, and stomps the back of his head. She continues to the ropes on the opposite side and returns to drop kick Goth straight in the face! This sends Goth back to the mat with a high arc of blood spraying from his nose. Nausicaa drops down, placing a knee onto Goth's throat, choking him out. Vampira rounds the ring, grabbing Charles, and hopping up onto the ring apron where Nausicaa can see her.
Vampira: You gonna want to get off of him, sweet cheeks! Or else the cat gets it!
Nausicaa Suzuki jumps to her feet and rushes to grab Charles from Vampiro. A quick tug of war begins until Vampiro suddenly releases the stuffed cat. Nausicaa is thrown off balance, backing up into Pyschotic Goth's waiting arms so that he can hits a German suplex! He gets her up so he can hit a second. And then instead of a third german suplex, he gets her up, and just hurls her backwards so that she lands on the back of her head. Goth goes for the pinfall as Vampiro drops back down to the floor.

Thre-Nausicaa gets a shoulder up!
Goth begins the application of a Boston Crab and then locks his legs in with hers before extending back to grab her under the chin to complete the Goth Torture Rack!
It isn't long before Nausicaa taps out as she has no where to go.
Bonnie Jenkins: Winner of the match and going on to the End of Days finale for the X*Crown match...Psychotic Goth!
Hawke: That is one weird looking finisher. Goth Torture Rack?
King: It worked. Didn't it?
Bonnie Jenkins: This next match is scheduled for one fall and is a round two match of the End of Days tournament. Featuring first the challenger, she is Fukushima Zombie!
"Meshi Kuuna" by Inu begins playing and Fukushima Zombie walks out from the back to the cheering of the crowd. She waves to fans as she walks down the aisle and rolls into the ring.
King: Zombie did well in getting by Space Oddity in round one. Think she can get by Jeremiah Vastrix without falling in love?
Hawke: Falling in love? Why would she-
King: Jeremiah is God’s Gift to Women around the world! I mean she might get a look at him and just fall in love with him. I mean he did donate a million dollars to her charities.
Hawke: A lot of people donate. That doesn't mean that she falls in love with all of them.
Bonnie Jenkins: And her opponent, “God’s Gift” Jeremiah Vastrix!
“Down Low” by R.Kelly begins playing as Jeremiah Vastrix walks out from the back with his eyes glowing blue. He waves at cheering fans, though there are fewer fans cheering for him an there was Fukushima Zombie, and heads to the ring. He grabs the top rope and hops over the ropes with grace, landing in front of Fukushima Zombie, who seems unimpressed.
King: I'm not sure how it is that Jeremiah made it by Rajiv Khan, but he did.
Hawke: I heard that Rajiv is winless in SWAT.
King: That might be, but Vastrix has a heck of a focus issue sometimes.
Hawke: Really?
King: Nah. I just might be jealous of his God’s Gift to Women title.
Hawke: That's awful big of you to admit.
King: I know, right? I am the bigger man.
Hawke: You can say that again.
King: You calling me fat?
Hawke: Let's just get to the ring action.

Quarterfinal Match
Fukushima Zombie (SEC) vs Jeremiah Vastrix (UOW)
Fukushima Zombie and Jeremiah Vastrix are circling around one another while seeking an opening. Zombie goes in for a lunge, but Vastrix sees it a mile away. He gets up a knee lift into Fukushima's gut, doubling her over so that he can hit a gutwrench suplex to send her to the mat! He backs away as Zombie gets to her feet. She lunges again, this time grabbing Jeremiah, and hitting a European uppercut that rocks Jeremiah's head back. This allows Fukushima to get in a suplex, sending Jeremiah to the mat. A lightning quick moonsault footstomp catches Jeremiah off guard, planting him back to the mat as he tries to get up. She converts the footstomp into a quick knee drop, sending the air from Jeremiah's lungs.
King: Jeremiah is gonna wish he had a cybernetic ribcage!
Hawke: That was some move!
Fukushima gets to her feet, but is met by a quick rising Jeremiah. He goes for a punch, but she sidesteps it, and brings Jeremiah down with a quick huricanrana! Fukushima rises, grabbing Jeremiah as he gets up, and whips him into the ropes. On the rebound, she grabs him, and hits a Tilt-a-whirl backbreaker! With Jeremiah down for he count, Fukushima goes to the top rope! She steadies herself and leaps into the air for the 630 Senton, but Jeremiah rolls out of the way!
Hawke: Jisatsu Sakuru too soon in the match. It's going to cost her.
King: The what now? Oh, her finisher! Why didn't you just say that instead of making up words?
Hawke: That's the name of her finisher!
Jeremiah gets up, pulls Fukushima up, and hurls her into the corner where she falls to a sitting position. He runs at her and hits a bronco buster!
King: Fukushima getting real familiar with Jeremiah's crotch right now.
Hawke: He calls that the Bump-N-Grind.
King: There ain't nuthin' wrong with it either.
Before Jeremiah can finish his move, Fukushima hits a headbutt...down low. Jeremiah rolls backwards away from her, grasping at his crotch as he curls up into a ball. Fukushima stands up, grabs Jeremiah up, and hits a sliding German suplex! She attempts to go for the spider twist, but Jeremiah breaks free, and rolls from the ring to catch a break!
King: I suppose you going to make up another word for that move.
Hawke: It's the Jigoku, Jerry.
King: Jigokujerry? It has my name in it?
Hawke: No...just no.
Jeremiah is trying to gather himself outside of the ring when he comes Fukushima Zombie flying over the ropes in a suicide dive that takes Jeremiah down to the concrete floor! She gathers the flattened Jeremiah up and sends him back into the ring, following him. Where she again tries the Jigoku! What happens next is hard to follow, but Fukushima breaks the hold, screams in anger, and rolls away from Jeremiah.
Hawke: What happened?
King: He broke the hold. That's what!
Hawke: But how?
Jeremiah Vastrix stands up, dodging as a furious Fukushim comes at him with lefts and rights. He staggers her with a return right hand, slips behind her, and applies a full nelson.
King: How did he break the hold? Surprise finger in the hoohah?
Hawke: How horrible! That's something I would expect from AWF's Greg Adkins!
King: Speaking of him. Did you know that he was joining us for the next match?
Hawke: I have heard that. I'll believe it when I see it.
Jeremiah doesn't keep the full nelson applied long before he converts it into a bulldog to complete his move called the Letdown. He pulls her up and gets her into a front face lock! He does a little shimmy with his butt, but is then sent through the air with a back drop! Fukushima waits for Jeremiah to get back to his feet and levels him with a superkick! She goes for the quick pinfall!

Thre-Jeremiah kicks out!
Fukushima kneels up, looking upset with the referee. She stands up, getting Jeremiah to his feet. She nails a European uppercut, kicks Jeremiah in the back of the legs to bring him to his knees, and goes for the rear naked choke! Jeremiah gets his hands up, grabbing her as he starts to rise a little, and hits a jawbreaker! Fukushima goes down hard to the mat.
King: The top of Jeremiah's head is metal to support the eye sockets isn't it?
Hawke: I don't know for sure what parts of him are metal and what is flesh to be perfectly honest.
Jeremiah applies a brain claw, applying pressure to Fukushima's face. The ref checks to see if she will submit, but she refuses. Fukushima reaches down and grabs Jeremiah by the crotch to get him to release the hold! She immediately goes for the Jigoku, but Jeremiah turns it into a small package!

Three!
Bonnie Jenkins: The winner of the match and moving on to round three...Jeremiah Vastrix!
King: Fukushima tried to play Jeremiah's game and it bit her in the ass!
Hawke: I will admit that was a low move to try.
King: Ha! Low move.
Bonnie Jenkins: The following contest is scheduled for one fall and is a round two match of the End of Days tournament! Featuring first the challenger...Rocco Rose!
The lights in the arena blink with the beat of the intro to Fozzy's "Sandpaper", then are brought up in a blinding momentary flash as the lyrics kick in and Rocco Rose steps through the curtain to a hail of boos. He has a swagger in his step as he walks the aisle, daring the fans behind the barricade to throw a punch, knowing full well that they are unable to get to him. He walks the steps slowly and deliberately, wiping his feet on the apron before stepping through the ropes. In the middle of the ring, he circles round and goads all sides of the audience before going into his corner and removing his jacket, teasing throwing it into the crowd before just tossing it to the floor out of their reach.
Hawke: What an ass. That jacket could have been a great souvenir for someone.
King: It's his jacket to do with as he wants.
Hawke: I suppose.
Bonnie Jenkins: And his opponent...Sang-Hyun Lee!
"Dreamer" by The KOXX plays through the PA system as lights flash and Sang-Hyun comes out from the back. He starts clapping and smiling as he sings along with the song.
"Dreamer
We have to be a dreamer
I don't wanna see your washout, keep your pecker up
You'll miss a golden ticket , If you lower your head"
We have to be a dreamer
I don't wanna see your washout, keep your pecker up
You'll miss a golden ticket , If you lower your head"
He makes his way down the ramp and slaps the hands of the fans before he walks around the ring.
"We are not ordinary no more
Anybody is not special from birth
They were ordinary boys like us
Anybody is not special from birth"
Anybody is not special from birth
They were ordinary boys like us
Anybody is not special from birth"
As the lyrics “Dreamer” playback Sang-Hyun steps into the ring as the fans sing the lyric too. They throw green streamers into the ring as he spins around and points at the fans.
"We are not ordinary no more
Anybody is not special from birth
They were ordinary boys like us
Anybody is not rockstar from birth"
Anybody is not special from birth
They were ordinary boys like us
Anybody is not rockstar from birth"
He goes to his corner and stretches as he gets ready for the match to begin.
King: Why is he walking with a limp?
Hawke: Car accident that almost took him out of play for good.
King: And he thinks he can hang? I guess he did make it to round two.

Quarterfinal Match
Rocco Rose (AWF) vs Sang-Hyun Lee (AXW)
The bell sounds to start the match Sang-Hyun goes on the attack with lefts and rights, but Rocco blocks them, and staggers Sang-Hyun with a shot of his own. He continues his advantage with an eye poke and a suplex. Rocco stands back up, but is met by a quick rising Sang-Hyun who huits an Okada style drop kick! Sang-Hyun gets Rocco into a seated position and applies a rear chin lock, getting that knee into Rocco's spine! He only holds the submission move a brief time before releasing it and whipping Rocco to the ropes. He follows, hooking Rocco's arms into the ropes. Sang-Hyun draws back for an elbow strike, but Rocco does a backflip while using the ropes as leverage. He snaps a kick right below Sang-Hyun's jaw, staggering him backwards a few steps as he lands with his arms free onto the ring apron. Sang-Hyun recovers quickly, hitting a drop kick that sends Rocco off of the ring apron and against the ring railing! Greg Adkins makes his way through the crowd and sits next to Jerry Lawler. He puts on a headset with a laugh.
Adkins: Sorry I'm late. My workout ran long.
Hawke: You had to do a workout before coming down here?
Adkins: And some meditation.
King: Meditation? What are you up to?
Adkins: I joined Hyperion's church!
Rocco Rose uses the ring railing to get to his feet, but he doesn't have the time to recover as Sang-Hyun dives over the ropes in a flying clothesline that takes both men into the crowd!
Adkins: Shouldn't the ref start counting?
King: He's been allowing the match to go outside of the ring a little.
Hawke: Yeah. No one wants to see a count out victory.
The crowd clear space around Rocco and Sang-Hyun as they both stand up and begin exchanging punches. Rocco grabs a plastic cup of beer from a nearby fan and throws it into Sang-Hyun's face to blind him. He does a quick Russian leg sweep to send Sang-Hyun to the concrete floor and hops over the ring railing to enter the ring. Sang-Hyun uses the ring railing to get to his feet and is slower to get back into the ring. Rocco greets the standing Sang-Hyun with a high cross body block, hooking the leg for the pinfall!

Sang-Hyun stands up, watching Rocco use the corner ropes to stand up. Sang-Hyun rushes across the ring, hitting a quick avalanche. He pulls Rocco out of the corner with a monkey flip and then applies a prawn hold to go for the pinfall!
Adkins: Look, there's a bird! There's a plan! No, it's Sang-Hyun getting a pin!
King: I think that's my line!

Adkins: Oh, someone might be taking a nap!
Hawke: Yeah, a sleeper hold. This could be all over.
King: Aren't you going to mention that he could be humping Sang-Hyun right now?
Adkins: I'm not that person anymore. That's just filth.
Rocco only holds the sleeper hold for a few minutes before letting go of him and backing away. He waits for Sang-Hyun to turn around before hitting a superkick that rocks Sang-Hyun! He follows this up with a quick GTS! Rocco goes for the pinfall, though the outcome is pretty much set in stone as Sang-Hyun is out cold.

Bonnie Jenkins: Winner of the match and going on to round three...Rocco Rose!
Adkins: See? AWF wins it every time.
King: I don't think that's true.
Hawke: Well, I suppose it could be true tonight. Bobby Barratt has to win his match to make it so.
Adkins: Easy peasey lemon squeezy!
King: That was so freaky to hear you say that.
Hawke: Rocco Rose heading to the back as Sang-Hyun Lee wakes up in the ring.
Bonnie Jenkins: This next contest is a contendership match for the X*Crown match at the End of Days finale. Featuring first, he is a former X*Crown Champion...Bobby Barratt!
"Be Legendary" by Pop Evil starts playing over the sound system. The fans start to cheer in anticipation as purple lights swirl around the arena. When the lyrics come in, all of the house lights come up, illuminating the entire arena in a swathe of Purple and the spotlights converge on the entrance way as Bobby Barratt appears on the stage. The fans go crazy as he allows their cheers to wash over him for a second before heading down to the ring. He heads down to the ring with a plodding intensity that sees him walk past the fans, focused on the match ahead. Bobby hops to the apron and wipes his feet before springing over the top rope and taking in the adoration of the fans.
King: Here is our next X*Crown champion.
Hawke: Sounds rather presumptuous. He could be defeated by Subject 42.
King: Or Jynn I suppose.
Bonnie Jenkins: And his opponent...the Wishmaster known as Jynn!
“Play with Me” by I.C.P. Begins playing as “the Dark One” Ryan Cullen walks out from the back. He holds open the curtain open for Jynn to walk through. He regards the fans for a fleeting moment before heading down to the ring with Ryan Cullen.
King: Jynn is an odd character for sure. He looks like he could use a sandwich.
Hawke: Because he's tall and skinny? Maybe.
King: Isn’t the whole concept of the genie an Arabic concept?
Hawke: It is. Why you ask?
King: Because Jynn comes from Mexico City?
Hawke: Maybe the concept is Arabic and the wrestler is Mexican. Why not?
King: It just fills me with a sense of wrongness is all.
Hawke: Just call the match that’s starting now.

Jynn shoves the ref to the side and stomps on the right knee of Bobby. He doesn’t get to do a second stomp as the ref pulls him to the side and threatens to disqualify him if he touches him again. Jynn ignores the ref and turns to see that Bobby has risen. He thumbs Jynn in the throat before whipping him into the ropes, hitting a spinning clothesline on the rebound. The ref now counsels Bobby on the thumb to the throat.

Jynn looks like he considers going for the pinfall, but instead places a foot behind Bobby’s right knee and bends the leg around it!
Hawke: Jynn with a knee destroyer. Bobby can’t climb the ropes if he can’t walk.
King: Can’t do much of anything if you can’t stand up.
Jynn places the knee between his legs and jumps to slam the knee into the mat! He continues this punishment with a spinning toe hold!

Bonnie Jenkins: This next match is scheduled for one fall and is a round two match in the End of Days tournament. Featuring first the challenger…”Wildcat” Lynn Brewster!
"Cat Scratch Fever" hits the speakers and Wildcat comes out. She stands there, and when lyrics start she walks down to the ring. She gets on the apron edge, looking around at the crowd, then gets in the ring and removes her jacket, oblivious to any booing she's receiving, almost enjoying it
King: Looks like she enjoys being booed.
Hawke: Some people are just like that.
King: Some people need enemas, but you don’t see me broadcasting that.
Hawke: You just kind of did.
Bonnie Jenkins: And her opponent...Ai Moe!
“Kill The Virgin” By SCANDAL begins to play. The song continues to bang throughout the speakers as Ai comes out from the back. She blows kisses to the fans before she makes her way down the rampway. She shakes hands with fans and walks around the ring before she enters and blows more kisses to her fans.
King: Cat fight fever! At last a match of quality in this tournament!
Hawke: I don’t think that “puppies” are going to come out of this match.
King: Puppies!
Hawke: No!

Ai Moe is on the outside of the ring, but doesn’t get much of a breather as Wildcat hits a baseball slide drop kick to the outside! Wildcat gets Ai back up and hurls her back against the ring apron. She keeps hold of Ai’s arm and throws her against the ring railing! Ai drops to the floor as Wildcat stands over her downed form. Ai aims a kick upward to try to catch Wildcat off guard, but Wildcat catches the foot. She hefts Ai up by the leg and hurls her like a sack of potatoes at the ring steps, demolishing them. Ai Moe tries to stand up quickly, but falls back to the floor. Wildcat picks her up, rolling her into the ring. She follows and waits for Ai to stand up before going for a superkick! Ai drops down under the kick, spearing Wildcat’s other leg to send them both to the mat.
Hawke: Ai Moe still has some fight left in her!
King: Big fights come in small packages.
Wildcat gets back to her feet, watching as Ai Moe slowly stands up. She goes for the superkick again, but Ai catches the foot. She lunges forward, punching Wildcat in the gut to double her over. She steps back, nailing a roundhouse kick that sends Wildcat to the mat! Ai Moe applies a rolling boston crab! The ref checks to see if Wildcat will submit, but she refuses. As they roll around, Wildcat finds opportunity to grab the ropes and force a break. Ai gets Wildcat up and starts to get her into an airplane spin, but Wildcat drops behind her. She grabs Ai up and hits a backbreaker! She goes for the pinfall!

King: Hardly the time to sing songs.
Bonnie Jenkins: The following is a Quarter Final Match in the End of Days Tournament!
The haunting vocal intro for "The Hard Sell" by Coheed and Cambria hits the speakers and the lights dim and blue and gold spotlights strobe around the arena. The XtremeTron lights up with a familiar theme as it reads, "Main Attraction ... Showing Once Again" A foot shatters the screen and we cut to images from DT's matches in MCCW against the likes of Nelly Angel, Weaselpop, and Eichi Yamaguchi. The first verse sets in as the screen shows DT landing on the floor of the arena and being handed the MCCW World title.
"I'm paranoid, and sick of this world's misconception of things I did. My language poured across this wrist in a metaphoric disaster."
DT slowly walks into a red spotlight on the stage with his head down hidden under a hoodie. It's black and has his custom interlocking DT logo with an italian flag and mariners compass on it on the back. He stands in the spotlight and slowly looks up showing off his signature bowler hat and sunglasses under the hood.
"My guess, I'm missing out the punchline, unless this hanging noose is fitted to be all mine. I stood by everything I loved, while you never understood me much..."
He flips the hood back and throws his hands up into a cross over his head before dropping them into his signature pose (the orton one, you know it.). The strobe blue and gold spotlights move faster around the arena as he soaks in the adoration of fans from two generations.
"Cuz there's only one ... of me. And too many of you, fighting over nothing. There's never enough cool for everyone and before you know it you're selling out to be in."
He unzips the hoodie and tosses it into the crowd and starts marching to the ring pointing to the MCCW World Heavyweight title around his waist and high fiving fans. He rolls into the ring and climbs the far corner and poses as gold pyro showers down from the overhead area. He leaps down and takes off the belt, kissing it and hands it to the referee before stretching on the ropes and waiting for his opponent.
Bonnie Jenkins: Introducing first, hailing from Seattle in Washington and weighing in tonight at 260 pounds… He is the current reigning Master Class Championship Wrestling World Heavyweight Champion and representing MCCW; “The Main Attraction” DEAAAAAAATH TRAAAAAAAP!
Hawke: King, Death Trap has been doing nothing more than showing us how MCCW has got the top stars. Although Jake Marston got put away easily in his match, Death Trap beat Alexis Grace in one hell of a match and Maverick who will be here later tonight in his XHF return.
King: But our focus won’t be on any of them, it’ll be on Death Trap who has one of the toughest challenges he could ever have in the End of Days Tournament in this man…
The arena goes dark as pyros start to light up throughout the arena as the arena fills with smoke and flames. A monster of a man slowly appears walking down the ramp as pyros shoot flames into the air you can hear "I See Fire" by Ed Sheeran playing. He methodically enters the ring stepping over the top rope and standing like a God in the center of the ring as he waits for the bell to ring.
Bonnie Jenkins: And his opponent, hailing from Parts Unknown and weighing in tonight at 317 pounds… Representing AXW, he is “The Russian Nightmare” DUUUUUUKE KOSSSSSLOFFFFF!
King: Semi Finalist in last year’s End of Days Tournament, AIW Asylum Island Champion, AXW Undisputed Champion, the things that Duke has done in his time would make you have him as the favorite going into this match but let’s see if he makes it past Death Trap in this dream match!
Hawke: Odds are on Death Trap for me, what about you, King?
King: I’ll go for Duke, put 20 on it?
Hawke: Sure thing.

Death Trap uses his tactical submission technique to good use as he goes for a North and South Choke on Duke.

Death Trap is quick enough to kick out instantly, both men get back to their feet but Death Trap is the first on the offense grabbing the head and dropping Duke with a Diamond Cutter he calls “Cut The Strings” Death Trap goes straight back to the offensive with a Triangle Choke on Duke.

Hawke: That just goes to show why he really is a monster.
Duke goes once again for another Deadlift Chokeslam but Death Trap finds some life in mid air! Grapevining around the arm and making Duke flip onto his back, locking in the Cross Armbreaker on Duke.

Death Trap wraps his legs around the head of Duke again with the Triangle Choke, he pulls on the head and tightens the grip, trying his best to choke out the monster known as Duke Kosloff but his strength kicks in and deadlifts him up onto his shoulder before running into the corner and bringing Death Trap’s back into the buckle.

He gets back to his feet and deadlifts Death Trap again! Powerbomb position before sending him over his head and catching him, dropping him back down with the Monster’s Drop! The Samoan Drop of Duke Kosloff!
Hawke: Holy smokes, what did I just see!?
King: Duke just sent Death Trap into the air from a Powerbomb position and caught him in mid air, dropping him spine first into the mat with the Monster’s Drop!
Hawke: That was incredible!
Duke rolls Death Trap onto his back and locks in the Hunter’s Crossface, wrenching the back and neck of Death Trap with the size and strength of Duke but Death Trap uses his foot to reach over onto the ropes. The referee breaks up the hold, Duke gets up and brings Death Trap to his feet, grabbing him by the neck and lifting him up for a Chokesla- CUT THE STRINGS!

Putting Duke’s head into a DDT position, he brings him to his feet before hooking the tree trunk like leg of Duke but is struggling to lift him up. Duke begins to awaken and is coming to blows into the back of Death Trap’s spine but he comes back with the point of his elbow to the back of Duke’s head. He lifts him up once more and HE’S UP!
